EYEWITNESS LOCAL NEWSIn-Home Water Testing Continuing; Larger Scale Plan In Works
from Eyewitness News Online
Reported: Feb. 14, 2014 5:47 PM EST
Updated: Feb. 14, 2014 7:11 PM EST
CHARLESTON, W.Va. (Leslie Rubin) -- In what's being called an unprecedented project, in-home water testing continues across nine counties affected by the Jan. 9 chemical spill at Freedom Industries.
Eyewitness News talked one on one with Dr. Andrew Whelton, one of the leaders of the independent team conducting those tests.
Whelton said it will be weeks before we learn about the results of the in home testing. He admitted their research will not answer all of the questions so many West Virginians have, but he wants to answer as many as scientifically possible.
Whelton first came to West Virginia three weeks ago with students and faculty from the University of South Alabama. They went into homes, trying to get answers after MCHM contaminated the drinking water for thousands West Virginia American Water customers.
"As I saw the events unfold, I realized real quickly that nothing new had been learned and they were making decisions based on data they simply didn't have," he said.
Critical of the way the crisis was being handled, he caught the attention of Gov. Earl Ray Tomblin.
Tomblin announced on Tuesday the formation of WV TAP, an independent in-home testing project led by Whelton and Jeffrey Rosen of Corona Environmental Consulting.
"They have a lot of questions that we can't answer but we are commited to helping the people of West Virginia understand what happened. What are the chemical levels at their tap? And helping them get the answers that they really deserve," Whelton said.
Ten homes have already been chosen across the affected area, with about 60 samples taken in each, according to Whelton. He said the cost to each home is anywhere between $10,000 and $20,000.
Whelton said the samples have been shipped to California, Louisiana, Pennsylvania, and some are staying in West Virginia to be analyzed.
Whelton said since Sunday they have been contacting experts from around the world to put together a panel to review the 10 parts per billion screening level for MCHM.
They have also shipped samples of MCHM and crude MCHM across the country to determine odor threshold levels.
Whelton said once testing is complete on the initial home, they will begin a larger scare water sampling initiative that could include up to thousands of homes.
"Potentially a site would be set up where people can register, and then their name would go into a hat and then a computer program would then randomly pick those houses," Whelton said.
He said his team is eager to bring unbiased, and scientifically sound information to the table.
"It's about helping people, what we're doing here," he explained.
Tomblin has committed $650,000 from his budget for the initial work. He also has asked for federal support to conduct ongoing research addressing short term and long term impacts and more MCMH research.

Kokomo Tribune
---- — Newark, N.J. (AP) – During a concert in Newark, New Jersey, this week, fans began throwing items on stage while the the 19-year-old pop star was performing.
"Can you please refrain from throwing things on stage, please and thank you," Bieber asked the crowd after a bandana and a few other random things were hurled his way.
Apparently, that just egged some overzealous people on as more stuff was tossed at the singer.
"Refrain — do you know what refrain is? Don't throw," Bieber told the audience. "Are you guys going to keep throwing things on stage or should I keep performing?"
Eventually someone threw a cell phone, so Bieber grabbed it and, naturally, shoved it down his pants to the delight of many concertgoers, judging by the female screams.
Selena Gomez's on-off ex laughed, took the phone out before giving one last "for real, don't throw" instruction, then continued on with the rest of his 90-minute show.

More than 70 percent of the 332 ballots cast in the wet/dry referendum were in favor of the measure. The final tally was 236-96.
Cordova joins Carbon Hill, Dora and Sumiton as municipalities that have gone wet since 2009.
Mayor Drew Gilbert said the turnout, compared to 569 votes cast in the mayoral run-off election in October, was higher than expected considering the lack of feedback from residents leading up to Tuesday.
However, the margin of victory was even more surprising.
"Because I wasn't hearing a lot of chatter, I expected a lower turnout than what we got and I also expected the election to be a lot closer," Gilbert said.
The role that alcohol revenue will play in funding the rebuilding of Cordova is still unclear.
Gilbert said the new administration, which has been proactive on a range of issues since November, will be cautiously reacting to the results of Tuesday's vote.
"This wasn't something that was on our agenda. We were served with a petition before we took office. So we don't have a plan for this. We don't have earmarks for the funds or a plan for what direction we're going to go with all the laws surrounding it," Gilbert said.
With only a handful of businesses currently operating in the city limits, Gilbert is not expecting a windfall from alcohol sales.
"We just don't have the retail right now," Gilbert said. "Short term, I think it has a minimal impact. Long term, it could play a role in attracting some business."
The Cordova City Council is expected to canvass the results next week. The next step in the process will be drawing up the ordinance that will regulate alcohol sales.

Served on-tap at the Brewpub a month or so ago, just getting around to adding this now.
A - Pours golden orange with a small half finger tall white head leaving spotty trails of lace down the glass.
S - Smells of bready grain, lemon zest, fresh herbs and some light spice. The lavender comes through more as it sits in the glass. Fairly well balanced for the duration.
T- Taste fallows the nose. The herbs and lemon twang start things off slowly giving way to hints of chewy grain, lavender, dash of hop bitterness and some light spice. Finish is pretty clean actually, only a touch of breadiness that doesn't linger for more than a brief moment.
M - Light body with moderate carbonation. Fresh, light feel from start to finish.
O - Another nice saison from Tired Hands. The flavors are pretty well integrated and it remains easy to consume. Glad I got to try this one.

Draft offering from the source. The brew appears a clouded light orange color with a finger of off-white froth. Some patchy soap of lace leaves some fingers sticking to the glass as the cap fades.
The aroma includes notes of sweet floral aspects im assuming to be the lavender contrasted by fruity note like pear. Overall, this is mild and enjoyable smelling brew without much yeast impact.
The flavor is very herbal like tyme instead of the listed sage/rosemary combination but im not herb expert. A little grassy and floral with an herbal bitteness that comes into play with an earthen feel. The yeast lasts into the aftertaste with the herbal addition being a bit too bold and distracting and dominating.
This is a medium bodied brew with a modest level of carbonation. I appreciate the direction they were going with this but the herb additions were a total distraction to the base beer instead of a compliment. I suppose if paired up with the appropriate dish, this would be possibly a memorable or winning brew but to drink it on its own was a bit of a chore.

Enjoyed on tap at the brewpub. Cloudy orange coloured body.Lacey. Peppery, very sage, rosemary. Lemon rind sourish and also malted and honeyish in the finish. Soft carbonation (a characteristic of their beers in general), more than a sipper. Strange yet drinkable,.

On-tap at the brewpub
A pale orange body, cloudy, with a firm ecru colored cap. Good staying power with some sheeting action.
Floral, herbal, and spicy. Juicy lemons with a burst of rosemary, sage, and lavender. The lavender is more prominent than I expected, and adds a bit of a sweetness to the aroma.
The flavor profile follows the nose. Rosemary and sage up front before a touch of sour lemons and floral lavender notes in the finish. All of these ingredients are on top of a classic TH saison base. Clean malt, light tropical fruit hoppyness. The finish is dry and floral with a touch of sour lemon. An interesting balance between the lemons and the herbs.
Smooth, creamy feel. Medium body with perfect carbonation.
This is an easy drinking, extremely flavorful saison. Love the mix of fresh ingredients. An interesting blend that really complement and balance each other well.

On tap at Tired Hands. A bit of a tasty oddball; an interesting combination of flavors and a novelty; but one glass is probably enough. Like most of the TH beers the look and feel are outstanding; the body is cloudy but shimmering orange; a big cap of white foam sits on top and takes its time settling down. Lots of lace clinging to the glass.
A wild aroma; plenty of lemon; fruity, yeasty esters; floral and perfumy notes of lavender and hops; flavor reveals even more; light sweetness; spice; lemon, lavender, sage, other herbal/botanical notes; citrus and floral aspects. Lots going on; my wife thought it smelled (and tasted) a bit like something from the Body Shop and there's some truth to that, but thankfully it's a bit tastier than a fragrant hand soap. Mildly tart, dry finish with some lingering pepper, herbs, and lavender hanging around.
Medium-light body, medium carbonation, smooth feel as expected from these guys. A fairly successful experimental one-off; this one is likely to appeal to some and alienate others, but I can't imagine it will be back soon (if ever) once it kicks.

On Tap at The Brew Cafe in Ardmore.
M.A.P. is a nice looking saison with a mix of bright gold and some orange mixed with slight amber. As always a nice sized white bubbled head up top leaving some skids on the sides. Kinda murky looking. The smell on this is bold and loaded with spice. Lavender sticks out the most for me. Floral aspects with some underlining tropic fruit. A touch of malt. A true smelling saison, that differs from the norm. I could sniff this all day. Some orange/lemon pops out on first sips leaving a fruity taste, followed by lavender and some floral taste. Spice and flowers with lemon and orange, malt being the least bit intrusive, but keeping things together. Feel is light to medium with a soft carb touching the tounge a bit, easy enough to take down and drink a lot of.

Saints LB Jonathan Vilma, who is expected to receive a suspension from the NFL for his role in the team's bounty scandal, has agreed to restructure his contract, according to CBSSports.com's Larry Holder.
Exact terms of the deal were not announced.
Vilma, a three-time Pro Bowler, is expected to hear from the league soon about his punishment. He was named prominently in the NFL's report about New Orleans administering a fund that paid players for hits, and he could miss as many as eight games next season. Since coming to the Saints in 2008, Vilma has started all 58 games he's played in.
To brace for the impending suspension to their middle linebacker, the Saints signed former Falcons MLB Curtis Lofton to a deal earlier this offseason.

Baseball's rally falls short in 7-6 loss to Georgia Southern
Related Links
A late rally by the JU baseball team came up short in a 7-6 loss to Georgia Southern Wednesday night at John Sessions Stadium.
The Eagles (20-15) used three home runs in the sixth and seventh innings to mount a 7-3 lead. The Dolphins (12-22) kept fighting by scoring three runs with two outs in the ninth, but Georgia Southern stranded a runner at second base to sweep the season series.
"I was proud of the fight we showed in the end," JU head coach Terry Alexander said. "We did a good job of creating runs tonight. Once again, we had one bad inning that hurt us, but I am confident we are close to erasing that problem. Overall, I want us to use the good things from tonight this weekend against Florida Gulf Coast."
In the bottom of the ninth inning, Jarrett Leverett retired the first two JU hitters. Sophomore Zachary Houck doubled to right field in the next at-bat, while Murphy scored him with a triple to keep the inning alive. Junior Dan Gulbransen followed with a two-run home run to right field, his 200th career hit, to bring the Dolphins to a 7-6 deficit.
Kyle Rowe relieved Leverett before junior Adam Brett Walker II reached on a fielding error. Walker II stole second, but Rowe struck out senior Matt Frank to quash comeback for his fourth save of the season.
Taylor Burke (1-0) retired the final batter of the fifth inning to secure the win. Jared Cheek tossed three scoreless relief frames to set up the Eagles' victory.
At the plate, Scooter Williams, Eric Phillips and Chase Griffin each finished with three hits for Georgia Southern. Stryker Brown also homered to help the cause.
Murphy and Houck each had multiple hits for the JU offense. Murphy finished his night with three RBI and two stolen bases.
The Dolphins took a 2-0 lead in the first inning as Murphy doubled home Houck in the second at-bat of the contest. He later stole second and scored on a throwing error during the play.
Griffin had an RBI single for the Eagles in the third inning to cut the deficit in half, but Murphy scored Houck on a ground out in the bottom of the inning after his leadoff with a double.
The Eagles made it a one-run deficit again in the fifth inning when Phillips recorded his 300th career hit to score Williams.
Things unraveled for the Dolphins in the sixth inning as Brown led off with a home run to center field off of JU reliever and eventual losing pitcher Wes Torrez. After a fly out, Tyler Avera reached on error, while Ben Morgan walked. A fielder's choice hit put runners on the corners before Williams cleared the bases with a three-run homer to left for the 6-3 Eagles lead. Griffin extended the lead to 7-3 by homering in the seventh inning.
Torrez (0-2) allowed four runs, one earned, on two hits and a walk in 0.2 innings for the loss. Senior Sean Green and sophomore Adam Maxon recorded two scoreless innings apiece.
The Dolphins start a three-game A-Sun series with Florida Gulf Coast Friday at John Sessions Stadium. Friday's first pitch is slated for 6:30 p.m.

Matthew Alexis Basler and James Wing Fung, both 32, and Marvin Justin Black, 27, are charged in the Dec. 26, 2008, stabbing death of Chapman University student Ryan Joshua Armstrong, 22, and the attempted murder of his friend, Joel Ross, in an alley behind E.T.'s Bar in Temecula.
Armstrong's father, Ron Armstrong, founded Cornerstone Community Church in Wildomar.
Following a two-day preliminary hearing that began Dec. 12, Judge Freer ruled that a trial was warranted. A weapons allegation was added against all three defendants, who are also charged with assault with a deadly weapon to produce great bodily injury.
Basler and Fung are additionally charged with trying to prevent a witness from testifying, and all three men have alleged prior strikes.
Today's continuance was one of many in the case.

AW can't see the forest for the Cardinal killer, Dexter Pittman. Granted, the Miami game was a poor showing (1-3 FG but also 6 rebs in 8 minutes), but he had a tough matchup against that bald guy who made his moves from the top of the key, and with Miami showing us athletic defense, the guards revert to zero passes down to the post. PB pretty much made these points already, but they are worth repeating.
AW just doesn't have the appreciation for the work of a big man. How come other schools have big fat post players who are slow yet still dominate college ball, but Texas can't? Since when is it poor play to have a center come off the bench and make the opponents center hit his free throws? We have lost some crucial games this year when our bigs were out bigged, ala Wisconsin and Michigan State. The only reason we weren't slaughtered worse at A&M was Dexter Pittman came into to stop the carnage.
Maybe I do have blinders on a little because Dex came in the year after we lost to LSU and Big Baby, and I saw him as our answer inside to a dominating big man. So when I see him turn and punch one, after a real post move toward the basket, or pick up a big O rebound by pushing a crowd of defenders under the rim, I just get excited and forgive some of his faults. I am really excited to see what happens Friday.

It's only been a month since hundreds of thousands of union members and their families helped Barack Obama win key "battleground states." Yet, already, some labor supporters of the president-elect fear he may be backing away from a key campaign promise to workers threatened by recession.
While running for office, Obama said he strongly favored the Employee Free Choice Act (EFCA), a long overdue labor law reform measure that should be part of his promised economic stimulus plan. However, when Obama introduced his top economic advisors on Nov. 25 and talked about steps to "jolt" the economy in January, EFCA was not part of the package. More disturbingly, his new chief of staff, Rahm Emanuel, declined to say whether the White House would support EFCA when he was questioned about it last month at a Wall Street Journal-sponsored "CEO Forum."
EFCA is vehemently opposed by big business because it would enable workers to unionize and negotiate first contracts more easily. The bill would amend the 73-year old National Labor Relations Act (NLRA) so that private sector employers have to bargain with their employees when a majority sign union authorization cards. Just as the NLRA did, as a centerpiece of the New Deal, EFCA would encourage collective bargaining to raise workers' living standards and restore greater balance to labor-management relations. Beginning in the late 1930s, this federal labor policy helped create a vast new post-World War II American middle-class.
Now, facing the worst financial crisis since the Depression, the Democrats have an unparalleled opportunity to link labor law reform to their broader economic recovery efforts. As economist Dean Baker, from the Center for Economic and Policy Research, points out, "If workers are able to form unions and get their share of productivity gains, it could once again put the country on a wage-driven growth path, instead of growth driven by unsustainable borrowing."
Tax cuts, home foreclosure protection, extended jobless benefits, and a public jobs program are all fine, EFCA supporters say. But expanded use of labor's traditional tool for "self help" (i.e. collective bargaining) is needed just as much and doesn't require new federal outlays like the recent $700 billion bailout of Wall Street. With newly-won bargaining rights, both hourly and salaried employees would gain a seat at the table, when management decisions are being made during the hard times ahead. Even amidst down-sizing, they would have more say about lay-offs, severance pay, and recall rights, not to mention wages, health care benefits, and the funding of troubled retirement plans.
Business has a far different and scarier view of EFCA's potential (and not just because it might lead to a wave of successful organizing). Contrary to the opinion of most historians, employer propagandists claim that NLRA-assisted union growth during the late 1930s actually prolonged the Depression. In a recent op-ed piece, National Right To Work Committee president Mark Mix predicted that passage of EFCA "will likely have a similar effect on the economy as the original Wagner Act, transforming what could have been a recovery into a lengthy, deep recession, or worse." To kill the bill, business groups spent an estimated $50 million on anti-EFCA advertising in Congressional races this fall.
Key Democratic challengers were elected anyway, giving labor law reform a large majority in the House and, by some estimates, 59 Democratic, Republican, and independent supporters in the Senate. Based on this latter head count, it will only take a single additional Republican vote (for cloture, if not for EFCA itself) or another Democratic win, in the still-disputed contest for a Minnesota Senate seat, to thwart any GOP filibuster like the one in 1978 that doomed labor's last bid to overhaul the Wagner Act.
Of course, a few Senate Democrats counted as pro-EFCA by labor may now be waffling, on cue from Chief of Staff Emanuel. See, for example, Arkansas Sen. Blanche Lincoln who told the Northwest
As Michael Mishak reported in the
That's why the same union-backed political apparatus that helped put Obama in the White House needs to be re-mobilized now to keep grassroots pressure on him and other Democrats. In many cities, a broad coalition of labor and community groups organized by Jobs With Justice is planning a week of activities, Dec. 7-13, calling for a "People's Bailout" that would include passing EFCA. In January, unions need to bring their rank-and-file members to
Labor has a strong case to make that EFCA is an economic fix that would work, while costing taxpayers almost nothing compared to massive handouts for bankers, insurers, credit card companies, investment firms and, perhaps next, auto makers as well. Workers about to be—or already—crippled financially by the recession will be watching closely to see whether their plight merits the same helping hand so quickly extended to corporate America.

BOISE, Idaho (AP) - Election officials in Kootenai County in northern Idaho say vote counting problems discovered Wednesday morning are preventing workers from tabulating results.
Chief Deputy Clerk Pat Raffee says the problem occurred about 1:30 a.m. and officials six hours later were still trying to figure out what went wrong.
That means vote totals are unavailable for the presidential race as well as public schools chief Tom Luna's education overhaul initiatives.
The glitch in the county that includes the city of Coeur d'Alene is also preventing results for two county commissioner seats, county sheriff, prosecuting attorney and a measure concerning an optional form of county government.
Raffee says workers don't know which numbers can be relied on.
She says they're not ruling out any possibility to get results, including counting ballots by hand.

Pureline Oralcare features quality oral care products available worldwide. Make Pureline part of your oral care program.
Availability: Usually Ships Within 24-48 Hours
Pureline Oral Care The Tongue Cleaner
Pureline Oral Care The Tongue Cleaner is scientifically designed to effectively clean the tongue, especially the important hard to clean rear dorsal portion of the tongue that is very susceptible to the accumulation of plaque during sleep. This effective cleaning removes the cause of the bad breath problem rather than simply treating the symptoms with mouthwash and breath aids. Effectively cleaning the tongue is as important as flossing and brushing your teeth to maintain fresh breath and a clean healthy mouth and gums. The Tongue Cleaner is the impressive addition to your daily oral care regimen. You remove the prime cause of bad breath, restore your taste sensation and improve your oral hygiene. Enjoy a clean, fresh, healthy mouth.You'll be amazed at how quick and easy The Tongue Cleaner is to use. Once you have used it for a few days, you won't be without it.
Clinical studies have confirmed that odor-causing bacteria on the tongue is the primary cause of bad breath and a potential contributor to other oral health problems such as periodontal disease. Especially during sleep, the tongue accumulates a plaque film of bacteria and other odor causing compounds. The texture of the tongue is very conducive to housing this unwanted material. This is why fresh breath is difficult to maintain, even after brushing your teeth. Brushing your tongue with a toothbrush only stirs up this plaque film, it doesn't effectively remove it.

Tragic West Philly blaze claims four
- Written by Ayana Jones
- Published in News Headlines
A West Philadelphia row house fire has claimed four lives.
The blaze broke out inside the home at 5250 Chancellor Street at about 4:40 a.m. Monday morning and was placed under control at 5:25 a.m.
The fire claimed the lives of two children — 2-year-old Jayden and 4-year-old Cyncere; their mother, 23-year-old Rishya Jenkins, and their grandfather, Seneca McClendon.
The two children were taken to Children's Hospital of Philadelphia where they were pronounced dead. Their grandfather was taken to Misericordia Hospital where he died. The children's mother was found dead in a rear bedroom.
According to neighbors, the children's father, Anthony McClendon, tried to get into the house when he came home from work, but he was held back by the flames.
The fire marshal's office was investigating, and there was no immediate word on the cause of the blaze.
Executive Chief Richard Davison said no smoke detectors were found in the home.
Two nearby homes were evacuated. The American Red Cross is assisting those families.
Red Cross spokesperson Dave Schrader says the agency is partnering with the Fire Department to dissimilate smoke detectors, batteries and fire safety information at 3 p.m. Tuesday throughout the neighborhood where the fire occurred.
"Unfortunately it's a very common occurrence where often times, there is a fatal fire and there were no smoke detectors. The single most important thing that a family can do is have a working smoke detector," said Schrader.
Schrader says the Red Cross has initiated conversations with Philadelphia School District officials to take their message of fire safety to schools throughout the city.
On Sunday, a 79-year-old woman and her 4-year-old great-granddaughter were killed in a fire in North Philadelphia. Ardalia Bumpus and her great-granddaughter Nevaeh Bryant were found in an upstairs front bedroom in the 1200 block of West Firth Street. The fire was accidently caused in the kitchen.
According to fire officials, the recent fire brings the number of civilians who have been killed by fires this year to 14.
Earlier this year, Fire Commissioner Lloyd Ayers issued a report which found that 27 of the 32 fire fatalities that occurred in 2011 could have been prevented with working smoke alarms. In 2011, 18 of the fire fatalities occurred in 12 structures that did not have smoke alarms, nor had alarms with dead or missing batteries. Nine citizens died in structures where smoke alarms were present, but were unable to escape.
"A lot of these fire deaths could have possibly been prevented if there were working smoke alarms in the homes," said Davison.
Monday's fatal fire comes a week after a warehouse blaze that claimed the lives of two firefighters. Sixty-year-old Lt. Robert Neary and 25-year-old firefighter Daniel Sweeney were killed a week ago in a building collapse at a nearby furniture store where the warehouse fire had spread in the city's Kensington neighborhood. Two other firefighters were injured. No cause has been determined in that fire.

EAST PEORIA, Ill -- The four East Peoria homeowners affected by the landslides two weeks ago remain on edge as to what the next steps are in their lives. And with more rain in the forecast, that's putting residents on even higher alert.
"Right now I feel like were altogether and safe, but we're sort of just holding our belongings as we just float on a raft out in the middle of the sea by ourselves," said Kaitlin Ct. homeowner Rachel Allen.
It's been two weeks since Rachel, her husband Josh, and children were forced to evacuate.
"It's very very sad, we're going to lose almost the whole neighborhood at this end of the block, children playing, and people's lives have been forever hurt," said Allen's next door neighbor Lee Anne Meyers.
And with the addition of two to three inches of rain to come this weekend, that has many residents and neighbors concerned about all 4 houses.
"In the beginning, we thought we were going to wake up and find the houses off the edge the way they talked. I think that might happen now. That much rain, I just don't think it can handle it," said Meyers.
But Rachel Allen can, and will, should the worst happen.
"The day we were evacuated, I woke up that morning, and I can't explain it but there was such a peace in my heart the entire day and I've never had any experience like that before, and I just kept hearing in my heart the entire day, Rachel whatever happens to you, I God, hold you in my hands, that you will work this out," added Allen.
Now, there is a way you can help not only the Allen's, but the three other homeowners displaced by the landslide. A facebook page called *Operation on Stable Ground* has been set up. and there are fundraisers being scheduled so community members can donate in any way they can.
Their first event will be Trivia Night at Mashies in Pekin on Wednesday, May 22nd starting at 7:00 p.m.
To visit their Facebook page, just type in "Operation on Stable Ground."

Just what I had hope for!
Sized as Expected
Almost daily
Good shoe, comfortable, well sized (completely as expected), easy to put on but fits snugly.
Sized as Expected
Both as a slipper and outdoor, informal shoe.
These shoes are the most comfortable pair of summer clogs you will ever own. They fit true to size and are available in both regular and wide width. The inner soles add additional comfort. Your feet do not sweat and your legs won`t have a tired feeling even after wearing them all day and night. A 1/2 inch heel makes them my favorite for slipping on to run errands but they dress up just as easily with jeans or leggings. I own several pairs in different colors and even the older ones still look almost as good as the day I bought them a few YEARS ago. They never go out of style. If you are looking for a comfortable pair of everyday shoes then you will not be disappointed with these.
Sized as Expected
everyday wear
Excellent shoes. They are comfortable. I bought them because I hurt a leg tendon. The shoes have so much cushion.
I wear them at work and in the community. I am ready to buy me a second pair. I highly recommend them.
Love these shoes and am very happy that you are now making them in a wide width, since my feet have changed over the years. Someone told me in a store that sells Merrell that this style can be washed in a machine. Is this true?
We suggest washing these by hand. A machine may damage the technical materials, and we would not want you to unnecessarily ruin these shoes.

Police arrested two more suspects, including the man suspected of being the triggerman, in connection with the Sept. 1 kidnapping and murder Errol Williams.
Members of the US Marshal's Service Gulf Coast Violent Offenders and Fugitive Task Force located and arrested Kelly Elliott Wednesday night at a residence in Conroe, Texas.
Elliott, 31, is currently being held at the Montgomery County Detention Center in Conroe, Texas pending extradition back to Fayetteville.
He is charged with first degree murder, two counts of first degree kidnapping, and robbery with a dangerous weapon.
Joseph DeShawn Haskins, 21, was arrested during a traffic stop Wednesday night on Murchison Road near Phillips Street. He is being held at the Cumberland County Detention Center without bond.
Haskins is charged with first-degree murder, two counts first-degree kidnapping, robbery with a dangerous weapon and conspiracy to commit robbery.
The men are among five named in connection with the Sept. 1 kidnapping and murder of Williams. Police say Williams was kidnapped from the parking lot of a convenience store at Bragg Boulevard and Shaw Road around 4:45 a.m. on Sept. 1.
Police say the suspects forced Williams to drive about a mile away where they shot and killed him.
Police believe Elliott was the triggerman in Williams' death and the man seen in surveillance video at the crime scene.
Thursday morning, Members of the U.S. Marshal's Task Force, along with detectives with the Fayetteville Police Department, arrested Kourtney Terrell Reed, 20, in connection with the crime at a home in St. Pauls, N.C.
Reed is charged with two counts of first degree kidnapping, and one count each of first degree murder, robbery with a dangerous weapon and conspiracy to commit robbery.
Police say Reed was hiding in the attic of the St. Pauls home when he fell through the ceiling into the presence of the arresting officers.
On Sept. 3, police arrested 31-year-old Eric Lamont Phillips at his home on charges of drug possession and possession of a firearm.
And on Sept. 6, police arrested Anthony Solomon Porter, 26, on charges of assault with a deadly weapon inflicting serious injury in connection with an Aug. 18 shooting. He is also charged with conspiracy to commit a felonious assault, and two counts of robbery with a dangerous weapon.
Police have not said how Porter is connected to the Sept. 1 murder, only that he and Phillips are associates of Elliott and that they remain suspects in several criminal investigations.
Fayetteville Police Chief Harold Medlock said police are investigating the possibility that the men were involved in an incident early Friday where a man was shot to death outside Chief's 25 Plus nightclub on Rowan Street.
In that case, police say a shootout erupted when victims of an attempted armed robbery pulled out their own guns and opened fire. Derrick Morrisey, 37, of Raeford, who was walking a woman to her car, was hit and killed by a stray bullet, according to police.

Sentencing was continued to July 26 for the grandmother of a girl found dead in a padlocked footlocker outside her family's home during the torrid Phoenix summer two years ago.
The body of Ame Deal, 10, was found by family members inside the small plastic box outside their south Phoenix home, where she had been placed as punishment.
Her grandmother, 62-year-old Judith Deal was originally scheduled to be sentenced Tuesday, and her aunt and legal guardian, Cynthia Stoltzmann, is set to appear in Maricopa County Superior Court on Thursday.
Judith Deal wasn't charged in Ame's death, but was accused of putting hot sauce on the child's mouth, hitting her with a paddle and putting her inside the plastic footlocker as a form of discipline.
She pleaded guilty to two counts of attempted child abuse and faces a punishment ranging from probation to 30 years in prison.
Stoltzmann, 45, who was also a legal guardian, pleaded guilty to two counts of child abuse and one count of attempted child abuse and two other abuse.
Stoltzmann was accused of throwing Ame into a cold swimming pool several months before the girl's death and forcing her head underwater.
Stoltzmann was also accused of once sitting on a footlocker while the girl was inside as punishment for stealing food at the family home.
The Maricopa County Attorney's Office said it would seek the death penalty for the two other people charged with murdering Ame.
Prosecutors say John "Bud" Allen and Samantha Allen locked Ame inside the storage box in July 2011. Both of them pleaded not guilty to the charges of first-degree murder, conspiracy to commit child abuse and multiple counts of child abuse.

Two senators spoke their minds about potential legislation during the Jan. 23 floor session.
Senate Bills 418-426 were introduced Jan. 23 and assigned to the appropriate committees.
Senate Bill 58 relates to "voidable marriages and annulments," and Senate Bill 350, which would require the state Agriculture Commission create rules for the Rural Rehabilitation Loan Program, both advanced to third reading. The loan program recently came under fire from an audit that pointed out not only were half the loans were delinquent but the department also had several conflicts of interest among the former agriculture commissioner, the loan board and loan recipients.
Senate Bill 310, which would adjust penalties for the failure to pay child support, was delayed one day.
Sen. Sam Cann, D-Harrison, said he was bothered by recent report that West Virginia likely will have to return $2.5 million in stimulus funds to the federal government.
The funds were leftover from a statewide broadband expansion project plagued by allegations of mismanagement and reckless spending.
Cann said it was allegedly the state government's fault for not requesting an extension on the deadline to use the remaining federal dollars for a project to increase Internet speeds and broadband access for all parts of the state.
But Cann he said he wasn't sure that was the case.
"That might have created opportunities for individuals and businesses," he said. "I think we lose and I hope there's a way to revive (the program)."
Cann said the increased Internet speeds could have provided state businesses with the tools to compete with other businesses and to create more jobs.
Sen. Craig Blair, R-Berkeley, said he is concerned with Senate Bill 421.
He said the state could benefit from bringing the prices of gas in the Eastern Panhandle down to the same prices in other areas of the state, including the Charleston area.
Blair said gas prices in Martinsburg would be about $3.55 per gallon, while the other side of the state paid about $3.15 per gallon.
"Even though we share the same exact gas, there's a huge difference in that," he said. "The state of West Virginia is losing a huge amount of Eastern Panhandle tax revenue to Virginia."
Blair is co-sponsoring Senate Bill 421, which would remove certain discounts from motor fuel excise tax, along with Sen. Herb Snyder, D-Jefferson.

|Baseball Roundup - April 15, 2013

Reds put RH Cueto on 15-day DL with muscle strain
The Associated Press
CINCINNATI — The Reds have lost top starter Johnny Cueto for at least a few weeks because of a strained muscle in his back, the third significant injury for the defending NL Central champions in the season's opening weeks.
Cueto went on the 15-day DL on Monday. The Reds called up right-handed reliever Justin Freeman from Triple-A Louisville, a boost to their often-used bullpen.
The Reds are likely to call up left-hander Tony Cingrani to start in Cueto's spot on Thursday.
Last year, the Reds made it through the regular season without one of their starters getting hurt. That streak ended when Cueto pulled an oblique muscle in the first inning of a playoff game against San Francisco, leaving their rotation in flux for the rest of a 5-game series that the Giants won.
Cueto strained a back muscle during the fifth inning of a 3-1 loss in Pittsburgh on Saturday, forcing manager Dusty Baker to go deep into his bullpen. The injury was initially thought to be in his triceps but an examination found the problem in the right side of his back.
It's unclear how long the Reds might be without their opening day starter and 19-game winner from last season.
"Hopefully only three, maybe four starts," Baker said. "Once he does come back, he has to get his endurance up, so we're really not putting a timetable on it. We're going to miss him but we've got to carry on."
The Reds won 97 games last season — second-most in the NL — despite having the back end of their bullpen wiped out by injuries during spring training. They also lost Joey Votto for 48 games at midseason because of torn knee cartilage.
The injuries are piling up quickly for Cincinnati.
Left-handed set-up reliever Sean Marshall developed a sore shoulder late in spring training and went on the DL. Cleanup hitter Ryan Ludwick tore cartilage in his right shoulder while sliding into third base during the season opener and will miss at least the first half of the season.
Now, Cueto is gone.
"This is our ace," Baker added. "We already lost a couple of key guys in Marshall and Ludwick, so I hope we don't lose any more."
The Reds transferred Ludwick to the 60-day DL on Monday to make room for Freeman on the 40-man roster. The 26-year-old reliever will make his major-league debut the first time he gets into a game.
Cingrani was limited to two innings in his start on Sunday, keeping him fresh so he could fill in for Cueto on Thursday. The 23-year-old pitcher has fanned 26 in 14 1/3 innings for Louisville. He will make his debut as well.
Jackie Robinson's ballboy throws out 1st pitch
MIAMI — A Brooklyn Dodgers ballboy during Jackie Robinson's rookie season helped honor the baseball pioneer Monday by throwing out the ceremonial first pitch at the Miami Marlins-Washington Nationals game.
Norman Berman, 84, lives in nearby West Palm Beach and has been a Marlins fan since their first game in 1993. He also was the Dodgers' 19-year-old ballboy in 1947, the year Robinson broke the sport's color barrier.
Berman witnessed the challenges Robinson overcame as depicted in the new movie "42," with opponents relentlessly taunting and heckling the Dodgers rookie.
"That movie was very close to what he had to go through," Berman said before the Marlins game. "They threw at him, they stepped on his feet and he never turned his back. He never said anything to them. He never tried to fight them. He walked away with a smile on his face because they told him, 'If you argue and fight with them, you're going to ruin it for everybody else'."
Berman's only season as ballboy was in 1947 and he watched Robinson and the Dodgers reach the World Series. Berman said Robinson befriended him, played catch with him and gave tips on how to make a double-play pivot.
"He was a wonderful person," Berman added. "I learned something from him — when you go through tough times, you've got to stay positive. I don't think most of the ballplayers who came after him would have been able to be the first black ballplayer because they couldn't do what he did."
Baseball celebrated its annual Jackie Robinson Day on Monday, with players at all major-league games wearing the late Hall-of-Famer's No. 42.
Cubs unveil $500M Wrigley Field renovation plan
CHICAGO — The Chicago Cubs and the city have agreed on details of a $500 million facelift for Wrigley Field, including an electronic video screen that is nearly three times as large as the one currently atop the centerfield bleachers of the 99-year-old ballpark.
Under terms of the agreement, the Cubs would also be able to increase the number of night games at Wrigley Field from 30 to 40 — or nearly half the games played there each season. They would give Cubs chairman Tom Ricketts the ability to renovate the second-oldest park in the major leagues, boost business and perhaps make baseball's most infamous losers competitive again.
Mayor Rahm Emanuel hailed what the two sides called a "framework" agreement in a joint statement issued Sunday night, noting that it includes no taxpayer funding. That had been one of the original requests of the Ricketts family in a long-running renovation dispute that at times involved everything from cranky ballpark neighbors to ward politics and even the re-election campaign of President Barack Obama.
"This framework allows the Cubs to restore the Friendly Confines (of Wrigley) and pursue their economic goals, while respecting the rights and quality of life of its neighbors," Emanuel said.
Still uncertain was how the agreement will sit with owners of nearby buildings who provide rooftop views of the ball games under an agreement with the Cubs that goes back years. They have threatened to sue if the renovations obstruct their view, which they claim would drive them out of business.
On Monday, a spokesman for the rooftop owners said the group would have a statement later but in the meantime, referred the AP to the group's statement released earlier this month that says: "Any construction that interrupts the rooftop views will effectually drive them out of business and be challenged in a court of law."
The Cubs wrote the video screen they are proposing to build is 6,000 square feet and would be built with "minimal impact on rooftops with whom (the) Cubs have an agreement."
The current centerfield scoreboard is slightly more than 2,000 square feet; the Cubs also have plans to add a left-field sign of 1,000 square feet.
"Rooftop views are largely preserved," the team wrote in its announcement. "The Cubs have agreed to install only two signs in the outfield — a videoboard in left field and a sign in right field. This is far less than our original desire for seven signs to help offset the cost of ballpark restoration."
The signs offer the team a chance to reach new advertising deals and pay for the overhaul, even if it might change the character of the historic park. The city and club said they hope the agreement would allow the Cubs to obtain necessary city approvals for the work by the end of the current season. The Ricketts family, which bought the Cubs in 2009 for $845 million, initially sought tax funding for renovation plans.
With that out in the new agreement, the owners will seek to open new revenue streams outside the stadium. Under the agreement, the Ricketts family would be allowed to build a 175-room hotel, a plaza, an office building with retail space and a health club and provide 1,000 "remote" parking spots that will be free and come with shuttle service.
"We are anxious to work with our community as we seek the approvals required to move the project forward," Ricketts wrote in the statement.
The site of Babe Ruth's "called shot" home run in the 1932 World Series and more heartbreak than Cubs' fans would like to remember, Wrigley Field is younger only than Boston's Fenway Park in the majors. It has long been a treasured showplace for baseball purists — night games were only added in 1988 — but team officials for years have desperately wanted a true upgrade, saying it costs as much as $15 million a year just to keep up with basic repairs.
The ballpark has also played no small part in the lore of the team, as fans were reminded April 10 when someone delivered a goat's head in a box addressed to Ricketts. Neither the team nor the Chicago Police Department have talked about a possible motive for the strange delivery but as every fan knows, it was in the 1945 World Series when a tavern owner arrived at the park with his pet goat — which had a ticket.
According to legend, the owner was told the goat smelled and was denied entry. The angry tavern owner then put the "Curse of the Billy Goat" on the Cubs — and the team has not been back to the World Series since. The last World Series championship for the Cubs came in 1908 — six years before Wrigley was built.
In recent weeks, fans had to deal with the unlikely specter of the Cubs leaving Chicago. With the talks bogged down, the mayor of nearby Rosemont piped up, saying the village located near O'Hare International Airport would be willing to let the Cubs have 25 acres free of charge to build a replica of Wrigley Field.
