Researchers uncover genetic Lincoln family secret
Now, researchers at the University of Minnesota have uncovered a genetic secret that has plagued the Lincoln family for at least 11 generations: a mutation that causes a form of ataxia, a crippling neurological disease.
The discovery could shed new light on the causes of a number of similar diseases, said Laura Ranum, a university geneticist who led the research project.
But on a historic level, she said, it also raises intriguing new questions about the 16th president, whose health has long been a topic of speculation.
Ranum, who has studied the Lincoln family since 1992, doesn't know whether the president carried the defective gene.
But through genetic detective work, she and her colleagues studied 300 distant cousins of the president (he has no living descendents himself; the last, Robert Todd Lincoln Beckwith, died in 1985). They found that about a third have ataxia, including Smith, of Manteca, Calif.

McCain told reporters that he'd love to give a speech in Germany: "But I'd much prefer to do it as president of the United States rather than as a candidate for president."
McCain said he was devoting his attention this week to campaigning across the nation's heartland.

Adventures of a Homeowner: Disaster Strikes - 09/05/13
We hear thunder. Then, see a flash. POW! Lightning strikes almost immediately. The whole neighborhood goes dark leaving us to watch the storm by candlelight.
Winds manhandle our cluster of trees in the backyard whipping our newly-purchased hammock into the branches below. Cracks of thunder send our dog into an anxiety attack and the lightning show holds her attention. Then, we think it's over.
The flashes in the sky quickly turn to flashlights moving around our front yard. My husband goes to the door to see what all the activity is about, and I hear "Oh my God!"
A 50 foot tree sits on top of my husband's car.
Here's a little background: last year while living in Oklahoma City, my husband's car was almost destroyed by hail damage. Lets just say he's had all he wants of Mother Nature.
Bonus -- the tree is blocking our driveway and 75 percent of the street trapping my car in the garage.
Did I mention we've been in the home for less than a month? As a first-time home buyer, I expected to encounter a few problems early on, but the storm rolled through just four days after our air conditioning unit went out on a 102 degree day. When we first moved in, we didn't have any hot water.
I realize these are first world problems, but c'mon! Haven't we suffered enough? We just want our showers to be warm, our home to be cool and our cars to be debris-free.
I don't know how you homeowners do it, but my hat's off to you! I'm exhausted.
P.S. I would love to hear your first-time homeowner experiences. Any storm damage?

Focus Stocks
Trading Idea: What to Expect as Verizon Breaks Resistance
Published on Tuesday, 26 February 2013 06:20 Written by TradersHuddle Wire
New York, February 26th (TradersHuddle.com) - Shares of Verizon Communications, Inc. (NYSE:VZ) closed the session at $45.72 just above calculated resistance at $44.88. The stock moved to what appears to be a higher range, spurring attention from momentum buyers.
Verizon Communications Inc. (NYSE:VZ) is an integrated telecommunications company that provides wire line voice and data services, wireless services, Internet services, and published directory information. The Company also provides network services for the federal government. Verizon is the owner of the largest wireless network, with more subscribers in the U.S. Verizon was founded in 1983 and is based in New York, New York.
The stock was trading in a well defined range with support at $41.50 and resistance at $44.88. Given that this range was broken, traders will be closely monitoring Verizon's price action to gather clues on the future direction.
From a technical perspective, it can be expected that previous resistance becomes support, as the new range gets defined. However, given that Verizon is still near the broken resistance level, traders will be focusing on the $44.88 level to see if the stock holds the breakout without rolling over.

The Secret Life of Emily Dickinson
By Jerome Charyn

Shop Local
Enter your zip code below to find indies closest to you.
Jerome Charyn, "one of the most important writers in American literature" (Michael Chabon), continues his exploration of American history through fiction with The Secret Life of Emily Dickinson, hailed by prize-winning literary historian Brenda Wineapple as a "breathtaking high-wire act of ventriloquism." Channeling the devilish rhythms and ghosts of a seemingly buried literary past, Charyn removes the mysterious veils that have long enshrouded Dickinson, revealing her passions, inner turmoil, and powerful sexuality. The novel, daringly written in first person, begins in the snow. It's 1848, and Emily is a student at Mount Holyoke, with its mournful headmistress and strict, strict rules. Inspired by her letters and poetry, Charyn goes on to capture the occasionally comic, always fevered, ultimately tragic story of her life-from defiant Holyoke seminarian to dying recluse.

It also taught us, though, that you have to put the past behind you. And right about now, the rest of the world would do well to remember the teachings of Timon. They would do well to remember that it is not 2002 – that it is 2014, and the Michael Vick they're so eager to see sign with the Jets is a decade and a prison stint removed from the one who was the world's most electrifying player.

room was very clean
motel breakfast we left at 7:30 am and scrambled eggs, potatoes, gravey was stone cold. Very uneatable not happy,ate breakfast across the street.
I liked the convenient location to visiting with family in the West Plains area. We stayed at the hotel when it was Best Western and will continue to stay there as Econo Lodge.
I didn't have anything about the stay that I didn't like!! It was all good.
Staff was friendly and took care of everything we needed.
Needs new mattresses and updated decor within the room.
Friendly helpful staff..Hotel was kept clean.
Out dated TV..First night we opted out of room cleaning and just asked for towels the second night we saw housekeeping in the hall on our way out and asked for room to be clean. When we got back not only had they not cleaned the room our dirty towels were still on the floor and we had no clean towels for the next day.
The staff was unresponsive to my 2 complaints that the room above our room was making to much noise through the floor (our ceiling)... In other words 2 complaint and no action by the hotel staff... Only we'll take care of it and they didn'T... Worst hotel stay in the last decade and I travel 210 a year. PS - I also reported 3 young woman smoking in your stairwell. No action.

Two Minnesota turkeys went to Washington. Only one will leave with a presidential pardon.
The White House is leaving it up to social media to decide which of the two Minnesota birds -- Caramel or Popcorn -- will join President Obama in the Rose Garden Wednesday for the traditional Thanksgiving pardon.
To help the public with this weighty decision, the White House has set up a site to allow the nation's 317 million-member turkey pardon board to take a gander at both birds.
Visitors to the turkey Thunderdome can flip through photos of Popcorn and Caramel checking into their suite at the Willard Hotel and mugging for the White House press corps. The site offers features the turkeys' vital statistics: height, weight, gait, favorite food, favorite music (Lady Gaga and Beyoncé, respectively) along with recordings of their gobbles.
Decision made, visitors are encouraged to post #TeamCaramel or #TeamPopcorn to Facebook, Twitter or Instagram. There is no third option for #TeamPardonThemBothYouHeartlessMonsters.
Caramel and Popcorn narrowly edged out a third, unnamed, flockmate to make it to Washington. The runner-up had his moment in the spotlight Monday in Gov. Mark Dayton's office and will be spending Thanksgiving as a featured entree at the St. Paul Salvation Army, where he and another donated bird are expected to feed at least 80 people.
You can vote for the turkey of your choice here.

The Camden Local Tax Fund Committee (CLTFC) will make its first-ever recommendations Tuesday on how Camden City Council should allocate $95,000 to tourism-related organizations. The CLTFC received requests totaling $164,317, nearly $70,000 more than which the committee had to work.
Melanee Harwell-Taylor's special needs class at Camden Elementary School won the 2012 Margot Rochester Landscape Award. Camden Elementary School's Puzzles in Bloom serves as a sensory garden for the special needs class. The award is named after the late Kershaw County gardener and writer Margot Rochester. The award recognizes landscapes, within Camden city limits, that contribute to the beauty of the city. The Margot Rochester award is sponsored by the Camden Parks &Trees Commission.
(The online version of this story corrects the date of Camden City Council's next meetings. Both work session and regular meeting will be held on June 12, not June 5 as originally published.)
On April 30, about 30 Camden and Kershaw County elected officials, candidates for office, school district officials, business owners and others traveled to Rock Hill. The goal: learn more about how the former textile town transformed itself into a sports tourism destination.
City of Camden residents visiting the city's website can read and email comments about a proposed ordinance to transform the Camden Historic Landmarks Commission (CHLC) into a Board of Architectural Review (BAR). Camden City Council looked at the proposal and discussed it during a work session Tuesday afternoon ahead of its regular evening meeting.
The distribution of $27,000 in accommodations tax (ATAX) will be considered by Camden City Council at its meeting Tuesday.
On the evening of Feb. 17, 1864, the moon cast a white glow over the waters of the Atlantic Ocean near the mouth of Charleston Harbor. The USS Housatonic, the Union Navy's largest ship at 1,240 tons, lay at anchor in the ocean two and one half miles outside the harbor entrance. The blockade of Charleston was commanded from her position. Through the frigid waters the brave, determined crew of the Confederate submarine H.L. Hunley navigated from Breach Inlet out to sea, moving toward the Housatonic at three knots. By the time the Union lookout on the ...
The recipients of the Community Impact Award, to be given by the Camden Historic Landmarks Commission o at 6:30 p.m. Tuesday in the City Hall Courtroom, are Marty Daniels and Barbara McCarthy for
The award for New Construction within a Local Historic Neighborhood will be given to Albert and Sarah Reed Tuesday when the Camden Historic Landmarks Commission recognizes a historic property and owner for preserving Camden's heritage through historically in-keeping new construction of a structure or structures within a locally designated historic neighborhood.
A woman who once ran for Camden City Council and a Camden woman who plans a return to a pediatric practice will represent the city's interests on the new Kershaw County Capital Projects Sales Commission.
The city of Camden Historic Landmarks Commission awards ceremony, recognizing homes, businesses and individuals for preserving Camden's history and heritage, will be held at 6:30 p.m. May 22 at City Hall in the courtroom. The award recipients this year include the following:
To commemorate National Preservation Month, the Education Committee of the Camden Historic Landmarks Commission will hold two walking tours this month. The "Walks Through History" will be held May 12 and 26.
One week ago, a group of 25 Camden and Kershaw County leaders, business owners and others visited Rock Hill to see how that city transformed itself from a dying textile town to a sports tourism destination. The group -- including members of Camden City Council, candidates for city council and representatives from the Kershaw County School District -- visited sites such as Manchester Meadows (soccer), Cherry Park (baseball/softball) and Rock Hill Tennis Center. They also visited the new Riverwalk/Rock Hill Outdoor Center, which already sports a velodrome for Olympic-style cycling and, when completed, will have other amenities, including a YMCA.
Camden City Council will consider naming two city of Camden citizens to the Kershaw County Projects Sales Tax Commission. Kershaw County Council already named Camden's Woody Cleveland and Don Terrell, along with county resident Ray McElveen to the commission. The two citizens named by city council will have the task of choosing the last member from either Bethune or Elgin.
Rock Hill in York County may have 10 times Camden's population in three times the geographic size, but it may be a success story for Camden and Kershaw County to emulate. That's why about 25 local leaders -- city council members, staff and other officials; candidates for city council; school district officials; county officials; business owners and others -- got on a bus at 8 a.m. Monday and headed north to the "Gateway to South Carolina."
Camden City Council will recognize outgoing councilmen Walter Long and Willard Polk as they attend their last meeting Tuesday night. Long and Polk chose not to run for reelection. Voters elected former mayor Jeffrey Graham and Deborah Davis as Long and Polk's replacements. They are tentatively scheduled to be sworn in at 5 p.m. Dec. 1, and will take their seats on council at its Dec. 9 meeting.
About 50 people spent some time Nov. 13 to help the city of Camden celebrate the official grand opening of its new wastewater treatment plant. The plant, which cost around $35 million to build, actually began operating in late-February. The city chose to wait until late in the year to have a ribbon cutting ceremony and offer tours of the plant while it worked to drain the old plant's remaining lagoon. The new plant replaces one built in 1979.

China drafts plan for $36b undersea tunnel
Publication Date : 14-02-2014
China plans to build the world's longest underwater tunnel beneath the Bohai Sea by 2026, with a blueprint expected to be submitted to the State Council in April.
"Once approved, work could begin as early as 2015 or 2016," Wang Mengshu, a tunnel and railway expert at the Chinese Academy of Engineering who has worked on the plan since 2012, told China Daily.
The project will cost an estimated 220 billion yuan (US$36 billion), he said.
Work on a feasibility report could take two or three years, he said.
The 123-km underwater tunnel will house a rail line connecting the port cities of Dalian in Liaoning province and Yantai in Shandong province, according to the plan. Its planned life span will be about 100 years.
By length, it will surpass the combined length of the world's two longest underwater tunnels - Japan's Seikan Tunnel and the Channel Tunnel between Britain and France.
"Using the tunnel, it will take only 40 minutes to travel from Dalian to Yantai," Wang said.
At the moment it is a 1,400-km drive or about eight hours by ferry.
Passenger vehicles can be loaded onto rail carriages and transported at about 220 km an hour, massively shortening the travel time between the two cities, according to the plan.
Wang said the project will consist of two underwater tunnels, both about 10 metres in diameter, and a service tunnel about 7 metres in diameter.
Authorities in Shandong and Liaoning are hoping the project will stimulate economic growth by connecting the northern area with the wealthy eastern coast.
The project has been proposed at the National People's Congress and the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference every year since 2009.
Wang Liang, mayor of Yantai, said during the annual sessions of the top legislature and advisory body in 2013 that the project will boost the city's economic growth.
The project was mentioned in Shandong's regional plan approved by the State Council in 2011.
Research by Ludong University in Yantai showed daily traffic flow between Dalian and Yantai is expected to increase to more than 100,000 vehicles by 2015, which will pose a challenge for transport capacity.
Liu Zhongliang, a professor involved in the research, said the tunnel is expected to bring profits of 20 billion yuan a year and boost tourism in surrounding regions.
"The project can pay for itself within 12 years," Wang Mengshu said.
Besides the profits, the tunnel can reduce the huge oil consumption required every day for cars traveling back and forth on highways, he said.
He added the Bohai Sea tunnel is a critical part of the country's 5,700-km railway project to link the cities of Tongshan in Heilongjiang province and Sanya in Hainan province.
While building underwater tunnels is not new for Chinese engineers, tunnel expert Wang still emphasised that the safety of the project will be the top concern.
"The draft plan has two chapters discussing the potential dangers in the project and the emergency plan," he said.
Tan Guangzhong, Wang's colleague, said flooding is the biggest safety risk during tunnel construction.
In the construction of the Seikan Tunnel, a slew of leaks led to financial losses and killed four workers.
Wang said the Bohai tunnel will be built at least 30 metres below the seabed, which is mostly hard rock.
Besides unforeseen accidents, complicated geologic structures may pose challenges in the construction, especially when two major fault zones are in the region.
The Tanlu and Zhangjiakou Penglai fault zones have been sources of chronic seismic activity. The Tangshan earthquake in 1976 killed tens of thousands of people.
Matthias Loftsson, director of geology for Iceland's Mann-vit, which has decades of experience in land and sub-sea tunnel design, engineering and consulting, highlighted safety concerns.
"In general, though, one can say tunnels are not unsafe in earthquake areas, all depending on the geology, tunnel depth and other local conditions," he said.
"However, excavation of a tunnel through active faults, where displacement can occur with a potential danger of flooding, would be of great concern and needs special attention," Loftsson said.
Liu Jie, director of the China Earthquake Networks Center, agreed that Northeast China is unstable, with earthquakes of less than magnitude-5 frequently occurring, especially after a massive magnitude-9 earthquake in Japan in 1999 caused large-scale movement of the lithosphere, or the Earth's rigid surface.
Zhang Chunyan in London contributed to this story.
