HEALTH DEPARTMENT: Flu responsible for three deaths in Beaumont
BEAUMONT-By: Leslie Rangel
The flu is responsible for a third death in the city, according to the Beaumont Health Director.
Sherry Ulmer says all three cases are adults.
The first two are linked to H1N1.
The department is waiting to learn which strain is responsible for the most recent death.
According to the health director, the first two victims had underlying medical conditions.
A sign the flu season is hitting harder, Ulmer says 45 to 50 people have sought treatment in the emergency room at Christus Hospital Saint Elizabeth.
Doctors from teh emergency room at Baptist Hospital in Beaumont also tell us they've seen an increase in flu cases.
The waiting room at Baptist Beaumont Hospital is filled up.
"There is increased cases of flu in the recent weeks and there is typical season of flu and we have some serious cases of flu," Dr. Ali Osman, a doctor for the Baptist emergency room says.
Dr. Osman says when the symptoms become more serious than headaches and fever, it's time to act.
"But, if you're really unable to breath, if every time you move around you have to catch your breath, that would be a good indication to come to the emergency room," Dr. Osman says.
And most of the cases doctors in and out of the hospital treat are one strain of flu.
"Some of these cases could be suspected to be H1N1," Dr. Osman said.
The Beaumont Health Department has confirmed at least nine cases.
Three patients have died, so far two are linked to H1N1.
"The progression of the disease is more serious than H1N1. Patients are more short of breath, they're more fragile, look sicker.Anybody with the flu will be sick anyway but they look sicker, more short of breath, less oxygenation," Dr. Osman said.
That risk is why more people are taking precautions to protect their families.
"When you're around so many people during the holidays, you don't know if everybody has had their flu shot or not, so if you wear a big sticker, don't touch my grandson unless you've had a flu shot," Traci Young, a southeast Texas woman says.
"I had my flu shot. I don't think you guys have, no they haven't, but I got mine three weeks ago," Ann Hartwick another Southeast Texas woman says.
And doctors say there's something else families should do.
"To decrease spread of flu take over the counter medications to decrease to control their symptoms," Dr Osman says.
Doctors say you should go to your primary care physician or a pharmacy to take a flu shot.
You can also visit the health department.

Everything needs money, example very basic WIFI facility is chargeable. Considering the amount paid with the facilities and amenities provided I don't think it is worth the value. Bathroom is small and no rack for you to place your bottles when you shower. Location wise is good but it is not easy to find as the sign is not very visible when we drove pass William St.

Apologies if this appears elsehwere... I have recently taken on timetabling, and have got to grips with setting up models in T6. I am particularly proud of how I have modelled the Y10 options. Studetns either choose one double award, or two single. What I have done is attached.
Unfortunately on loading it to options, it does not seem to recognise these, and only gives me the y10 maths groups for options.
any ideas?? My new best friend in the office and I are getting exasperated!

|Hi. I have a 13 month old dog named Jenny. Two weeks ago Jenny was wetting the bed at night so I took her to the vet and we thought it was just a urinary tract infection... but after a battery of tests with no positive results the diagnosis we are left with is congenital renal dysplasia. She isn't wetting the bed anymore and she hasn't shown any outward signs of feeling bad, that's why it took so long to diagnose her. I'm engaged and my fiance and i were planning to get Jenny a companion when we got married. But with her shortened life I'm wondering if i should get her a friend now, because I'm still in school and my fiance works full time. And I don't want her to be lonely. Jenny loves other dogs, I just don't want to put any undue stress on her, but I want to give her the life she deserves, even if it is short. Please, any advice on what we should do would help. She could have some good months left or she could live to maybe see 3 y/o. Thanks
Follow-Up Postings:
|I would wait with another dog. Give Jenny all your time and attention now.

Loved Flower & Garden ant got lots of great pics. I played Agent P, which led me to the far corners of each country that I may have otherwise missed.
At MK, I played Sorcerers and beat the first two villains.
Then, I happened upon AK's 15th anniversary celebration and bought a few limited edition pins to commemorate the day.
I did lots of attractions that I've never before done or were long overdue. Have a great time!

My suggestion....Don't take Mousekeeping Issues to the Front Desk!!her know
When I had a mousekeeping issue last trip, nothing TOO serious, but something that needed to be addressed...
Ask to speak with the Mousekeeping Manager for your building. They will page them and they will come and speak with you in person. I 'aired' my concerns with the mgr, also letting her know that my goal wasn't to 'get anyone in trouble', but just to get this matter 'corrected'. Normally, My mousekeeping was phenomenal, but apparently the day I had an issue, was a day that my regular mousekeeper was 'off'. The manager still addressed the issue because my regular mousekeeper was 'off' 2 days back to back. But after speaking with the manager, My mousekeeping was 'incredible'!! Let it be a 'learning experience' for that mousekeeper if they really aren't doing a satisfactory job.
BTW, the manager did thank me for letting about the problem. She said they can't fix issues they don't know about!!
And as far as leaving your room too late at 10:30! Pish Posh!! Some days I (when I was there on my trips this past January and March) I didn't leave until after 1PM!!) and I still got mousekeeping!!! I didn't stay that late every day, but I rarely left before 11am. I'm NOT a morning person. So I don't buy that excuse.
sorry your trip wasn't as magical this time around. Not trying to make excuses, but it does sound to me like 'maybe' your room location did possibly factor into it though along with maybe some ornery kids being mischevious and bothersome to other guests. I know when I have been a solo traveler, I like to be slightly off the beaten path but not too far...
Maybe a different room location is in order next time.
And the ice situation is frustrating. The one thing I notice though is people are constantly overfilling their cups with ice and then dumping alot of it out in the tray below which is very wasteful...but what can you do???

Although I doubt if I'll go alone again, I'm thinking next time we will try AoA. I'm not crazy about the only regular rooms being Little Mermaid, but I will deal with it.
Apparently, I'm just too wimpy for solo travel

Elon Musk's long-awaited Hyperloop plan is finally revealed
The problem with succeeding at tacking major tech challenges is that when you merely mention the idea for a new one, everyone expects you to deliver. That's what Elon Musk found out about a year ago when he first mentioned his idea of a "fifth mode of transportation" called the Hyperloop. Since then the founder of SpaceX and Tesla has been constantly peppered with questions about how the system works and when he might reveal his plan for such an invention. Well, after much excitement from the tech community, Musk has finally revealed his plan for the Hyperloop, complete with illustrations, technical explanations, financial hurdles, and even a potential first route.
Published on a special page on the SpaceX website, Musk's 57-page plan lays out in full what he envisions as a mode of transport that would be orders of magnitude cheaper and faster than current travel methods. The idea came about after Musk learned of California's plan to invest in a high speed rail system, a system he believes is too expensive and too slow. According to Musk, "Short of figuring out real teleportation... the only option for super fast travel is to build a tube over or under the ground that contains a special environment."
To remedy this, Musk envisions what he calls a Hyperloop system. The specifics of how the technology would work are layed out in Musk's proposal, where he writes:
"Hyperloop consists of a low-pressure tube with capsules that are transported at both low and high speeds throughout the length of the tube. The capsules are supported on a cushion of air, featuring pressurized air and aerodynamic lift. The capsules are accelerated via a magnetic linear accelerator affixed at various stations on the low-pressure tube with rotors contained in each capsule. Passengers may enter and exit Hyperloop at stations located either at the ends of the tube, or branches along the tube length."
Based on Musk's projections, the capsules would move at roughly 760 miles per hour, traveling along a network of tubes lined with solar panels that would provide power to the system. And rather than simply offer a pie in the sky vision of the system, the proposal even delves into the minutiae of cost and infrastructure logistics, ultimately estimating that the system would cost just under $6 billion. For some perspective on that number, note that New York City's new 2nd Avenue subway line, which will only span two miles and is mired in old technology, is expected to cost $4.5 billion.
Because he's busy doing trivial things like pioneering commercial space flight and reshaping the auto industry, Musk is reluctant to commit to working on the project himself, instead opting to release the plans to the public to whomever wants to take up the challenge.
However, during a conference call yesterday following the unveiling of the proposal, Musk indicated that he might actually do some work on the idea. Musk said,
"I am somewhat tempted to at least make a demonstration prototype… Perhaps I'll create a sub-scale version that's operating, and then hand it over to somebody else…I think I'll probably end up doing that."
You can read Musk's full plan in detail here, and check out some of the concept illustrations of the Hyperloop in the gallery below.

SEX: What MUSLIM WOMEN REALLY WANT … IN THE BEDROOM
What Muslim women really want in the bedroom
Sex is taboo subject for most Muslims. However, a growing number of young Muslim women are talking about what they really want when in the bedroom. Shelina Janmohamed, author of Love in a Headscarf, explains how women are leading the way in her faith when it comes to understanding sexuality.
By┬ĀShelina Janmohamed
7:00AM BST 02 May 2013
Abdelaziz Aouragh runs an online sex shop for Muslims. ŌĆ£We donŌĆÖt sell products that simply enhance the love life between man and woman,ŌĆØ he explains. ŌĆ£All of our products provide a deeper meaning to sexuality, sensuality and even spirituality.ŌĆØ
His company El Asira, based in the Netherlands, offers products like ŌĆ£sensual siliconeŌĆØ and ŌĆ£glamour lotion.ŌĆØ All of his products are Halal.
ŌĆ£The majority of our customers are women,ŌĆØ he tells me. ŌĆ£With men there is too much bravado.ŌĆØ
I see this pattern often repeated of Muslim women leading their male counterparts in the discussion about sexuality and intimacy.
According to Islamic law, sex is limited to between those who are married. But when it comes to exactly what you can do, and how sex is generally discussed, Islam itself is quite open. Sex is of course for procreation, but itŌĆÖs also for pleasure.
There are stories about how Prophet Muhammad would be approached in the mosque by women and men asking open questions about sexuality. In one famous tale, a woman came to see him on her wedding night, to complain her husband was too busy praying and hadn't come near her. The Prophet went to see the husband, admonished him for being too engrossed in religious prayer and instructed him to, erm, pay more attention to his bride.
This openness has been lost over time, and discussions about sex have become taboo. However, things are slowly changing.
Wedad Lootah is a UAE marriage counsellor who published an Arabic sex guide,┬ĀTop Secret: Sexual Guidance for Married Couples, on how to achieve sexual intimacy with your partner, stating couples needed the advice. Her book was blessed by the mufti of the UAE. But she received intense criticism.
Wedad Lootah's controversial book
Whilst engaged, my now husband and I attended a ŌĆśpre-marriageŌĆÖ seminar, one of the first of its kind in the UK. The one day training included an hour about sex. It wasnŌĆÖt very good, but nonetheless, I was pleased that the subject was raised and the taboo broken.
Jenny is an Irish Muslim organising a similar two part seminar for young women only, the first on marriage, the second on intimacy. ŌĆ£The girls donŌĆÖt know what should be happening in their intimate lives,ŌĆØ she explains. ŌĆ£The men tell them to do X or Y, and they donŌĆÖt know any better.ŌĆØ Jenny understands that her seminar is unusual, but her primary concern is that the young women receive this education, and criticism is kept at bay. For this reason, she asks I donŌĆÖt quote her real name: ŌĆ£IŌĆÖm sticking my neck out here.ŌĆØ
ItŌĆÖs not a sex instruction class that sheŌĆÖll be hosting. ŌĆ£WeŌĆÖre not telling them what goes where!ŌĆØ laughs Jenny. ŌĆ£But these girls need to know their rights in the bedroom.ŌĆØ
In the USA, controversial Muslim activist Asra Nomani has written an ŌĆ£Islamic Bill of Rights for Women in the Bedroom.ŌĆØ to ŌĆśuphold womenŌĆÖs right to pleasureŌĆØ. Nomani says she received negative feedback about the bill. But when I read about it I remember thinking, this is not in the least controversial or new for Islam. If anything it shows how little Muslims – even vocal ones – have knowledge about Islam's un-guilty approach to sex, or understand that Islam has always been extremely open about sexual pleasure, and in particular womenŌĆÖs pleasure.
Yet, itŌĆÖs undeniable that to talk about sexuality, especially as a woman, is difficult, and as a consequence IŌĆÖm genuinely apprehensive about publishing this piece. But push on I will.
ItŌĆÖs a subject that needs to be openly addressed, precisely so that these contradictions can be unravelled.

Roger Simon: Refuse to be terrorized
The purpose of terror is to sow panic, interrupt daily life, change and constrain behavior.
But, most importantly, terror is designed to shatter people's faith in the ability of their government to protect them.
And if a government cannot protect its citizens, if it loses the faith of its citizens, it cannot long endure.
In the lexicon of terror, you and I are "soft" targets. We are easily reached, easily killed, easily maimed because we seek normal lives. We do not live in bunkers or move about in armored vehicles.
We do not avoid public streets. We do not shun others. We mix with them, work with them, shop with them, walk the public streets with them.
Our first instinct is not to fear or hate. Our first instinct is to trust that virtually everyone we interact with on a daily basis means us no harm.
We are Americans. We enjoy the blessings of a free society. We believe our government will, in the rare instances it is called upon to do so, either prevent acts of terror or track down, capture, kill or neutralize those who commit terror against us.
There are those, however, who believe that our government itself is carrying out acts of terror.
The "truthers" believe the U.S. government planted bombs in the World Trade Center on Sept. 11, 2001, to bring the buildings down so we could wage war in the Mideast. (The jets that crashed into the towers, the truthers believe, were merely window dressing.)
Others believe the government also blew up the Alfred P. Murrah Federal Building in Oklahoma City on April 19, 1995, as part of a conspiracy that involved black helicopters, secret evacuations of top conspirators from the buildings and instructions printed on stop signs with invisible ink.
These people are small in number. But I get the feeling their numbers may not necessarily be dwindling.
A short while after the explosions in Boston on Monday, Massachusetts Gov. Deval Patrick held a news conference in the quite proper belief that flooding the situation with truth is the best antidote to panic-inducing lies.
Here is one of the first questions he got:
Question: "Why were the loudspeakers telling people in the audience to be calm moments before the bomb went off? Is this another false flag staged attack [i.e., like 9/11) to take our civil liberties . ?"
Gov. Patrick: "No. Next question."
The blood was not yet fully dry on the streets, yet the loonies were already at work, spreading the belief that our government exists not to protect us, but to enslave and even kill us.
It is easy to look at the Boston Marathon bombing and believe we are entering a new era of fear. But it is not the first attack we have endured. Two I have already mentioned.
But don't forget the fear of anthrax sent by mail once gripped this country, and we got through that. We also got through the Unabomber and Columbine and Virginia Tech and Aurora. Newtown and the slaughter of 20 small children we are still struggling with.
Guns and bombs are related. Both are weapons of swift destruction.
I fear the Boston bombings will set back gun control for three reasons:
First, some will say there are laws against bombing, but that didn't prevent the marathon bombing and, therefore, laws against violence are useless.
Second, some will say we need to arm ourselves against future bombers. (Though this would not have protected anybody in Boston, where there was already a heavy, armed police presence.)
Third, a few will say government is the enemy and we must arm ourselves against the government.
Think that last one is believed only by whackos?
Here is a Ronald Reagan column from the September 1975 issue of Guns & Ammo:
"The gun has been called the great equalizer, meaning that a small person with a gun is equal to a large person, but it is a great equalizer in another way, too. It insures that the people are the equal of their government whenever that government forgets that it is servant and not master of the governed."
On Tuesday, President Obama said: "The American people refuse to be terrorized."
I pray he is correct. This is a time for courage and resolve. This is a time for strength.
This is a time for us to turn toward and not against each other. This is a time for us to turn toward and not against our government.
Stand up. Stand strong. Stand together.

Super pretty little bargain chairs. Very good price. Absolutely love the fabric and muted colors; it looks just as good in person. Pattern has lots of dimension. Reasonably easy to assemble. Can't evaluate durability yet 'cause I just got them. But I'm happy so far.
This DINING chair was the answer to a small bedroom space to go with a small desk. Assembly was easy with back attached to seat and then 4 legs Despite odd green background color, the colors go well together. I am happy with purchase
We were looking for a unique designed parson chair to go with our new dining room table. These were a great price and a perfect fit. I was a bit concerned as the description didn't state much about the color of the legs of the chair however it is a perfect match. The picture was spot on. You can't beat the price of these chairs and they were easy to assemble. We did 6 in about 30 minutes.
They are beautiful and comfortable. My friends came over and we had dinner on them and they were great. They went together pretty easily, it took less than 2hrs for all four. My friends thought they were perfect for the setting and the table.
I bought a pair of these chairs to complement the wooden chairs I already have in my dining room. Although they are rather light-weight, they do look nice. I actually decided to use them as accent chairs because they are not very comfortable to sit on for extended periods. Not as substantial as I had expected/wished, but fair value for the money.
The chair was advertised as "ASSEMBLED," but it was not. I routinely buy already-assembled products because I am a widowed senior citizen and it's just easier. I was VERY DISAPPOINTED because I had to get someone to put it together.
I desperately needed chairs for the holidays. I ordered 6. What a value. I love them and would recommend them to anyone.
large size for large or small people.comfortable and great fabric well blended so you dont see stains.
love it & all my friends too the color and the style
The chairs are of great quality! The color is amazing!

So yesterday I went to bootcamp (3rd class), I can really see my fitness level is improving and so canthe trainers. From going there yesterday I can understand why I was advised by other spark members to have rest days inbetween, because I was still feeling the previous booycamp 2 days prior loool.
So I am implementing the rest days but what I will do is use my crosstrainer on the rest days if I feel like I have the energy or urge to do so for about 15 mins or so.
I have to invest in some weights so I can incorporate that, but so far so good on the execrsise front.
In terms of food I'm not overindulging but I am not always choosing the right food.
There is progress to be made but its happening in baby steps.
So this is going to be an introduction to my schedule, my future progress, and to date stats.
Well to introduce myself, my name is Danielle, i'm 22 and i live in Essex. I have a son who is now 8 months old so i work around him, and i have recently entered myself into a 5 mile marathon to push myself to get fit (because i don't want to look like an idiot lol).
I am one of those people who tries all kinds of diet and always trying to lose weight, yet always gives up. I looove my food, so i cave in to eat what i want quickly lol. I am also lazy (if I'm honest lol) so doing exercise requires a huge amount of effort.
Before my son was born i was a regular gym member, i have also been to Slimming world, done a week on the Insanity programme. However this year i joined a bootcamp to which i go twice a week for an hour, its high interval training like Insanity, so far i've been to two classes and i have another one tomorrow.
I have planned my workouts as the following (which will be active as of tomorrow lool);
Monday: bootcamp
Tuesday: Insanity dvd and crosstrainer
Wednesday: Slim in 6 dvd and crosstrainer
Thursday: Insanity and crosstrainer/jog
Friday: Jog and crosstrainer
Saturday: bootcamp and jog
Sunday: reeeeessssst
Now the plan is great its just sticking to it, which is why i wanted a motivational buddy. The bootcamps will happen its just the home ones i worry about.
Wish me luck :)

Publisher: NPR, National Public Radio, USA
Author: Ofeibea Quist-Arcton
Story date: 20/11/2011
Language: English
LINDA WERTHEIMER: With the recent cross-border military operation into southern Somalia, the spotlight is falling on a neighborhood in Kenya's capital called Little Mogadishu. It's home to thousands of Kenyan-born Somalis as well as Somali refugees. NPR's Ofeibea Quist-Arcton reports.
OFEIBEA QUIST-ARCTON: This is Eastleigh. It's a busy little corner of Nairobi. It's called Little Mogadishu and you can understand why. All the signs of the shops is written in Somali. You have restaurants with Somali names and you have veiled women, you have men who have just come out of the mosque, wearing long robes.
QUIST-ARCTON: So, we've come to find out from them whether with the Kenyan military incursion into Somalia, whether they feel that fingers are being pointed at them.
ADEN DUALE: If you have a criminal, look for individual criminals because sometimes we hear it's very easy to assume all Somalis are al-Shabab.
QUIST-ARCTON: Aden Duale is a Somali-Kenyan member of Kenya's Parliament. He's concerned by what many consider a blanket threat by the government here after the abduction of foreign tourists and aid workers. Kenya blames al-Qaida-linked Somali al-Shabab insurgents, who are fighting their own administration in Somalia, and now Kenyan troops in the south. The anti-Western al-Shabab group warns that Kenyans will taste fire for their government's military operations, prompting an aggressive official Kenyan response.
The security forces have vowed to smoke out those who back Somalia's militants and Kenya's Somali community feels it is the target of the crackdown.
DUALE: We want the government to distinguish between the criminals and the ordinary citizens. That distinction should be very clear.
QUIST-ARCTON: The Kenyan MP's concerns are echoed in Little Mogadishu, which is a mix of Somali-Kenyans like him, and many Somali immigrants living here. After the Kenyan army crossed into southern Somalia last month, Nairobi was hit by a wave of grenade attacks and insecurity. Somali refugee, Munyadeen Roble, says he senses growing Kenyan hostility.
MUNYADEEN ROBLE: We Somali refugees here in Kenya, we came here to get peace. It is good for us to have a peaceful Kenya. Kenya is our second country. Before these attacks, we were not feeling as foreigners. But now we feel as foreigners. Increasingly, I see Somali phobia.
QUIST-ARCTON: So, how is this anti-Somali sentiment manifesting itself among the residents of Kenya's Little Mogadishu?
ROBLE: Like when you are walking on the streets of Nairobi, or when you are in a public bus, people will look at you bad and then say, hey, Shabab. Hey, is that al-Shabab? This man, is he al-Shabab? Is he going to do something? So you feel bad when people is talking to you as al-Shabab. Like a group which you do not support, a group which made you flee from your country, yeah?
QUIST-ARCTON: Ahmed Aden is Kenyan of Somali origin. He says he's being marginalized by his own government and police force, and believes they're not doing enough to protect the Somali community.
AHMED ADEN: Indeed, yes, I feel that whether I have the right identification, whether I have the citizenship, they do discriminate me; I feel I don't belong here.
QUIST-ARCTON: But not the entire Somali community in Kenya is feeling put upon. After Friday prayers, residents of Little Mogadishu gather to eat and to drink camel's milk. A group of veiled women is selling the frothy, white liquid on what passes for a sidewalk along the hectic, noisy and dusty main street in Eastleigh. Most were too shy to talk. But 16-year-old Somali schoolgirl Layla Ahmed, wearing a fluffy, white hat and a serious smile, readily shared her views about al-Shabab and the Kenyan military adventure.
LAYLA AHMED: We are happy that they are getting al-Shabab out of Somalia. People are running from there and we are grateful to Kenyans if they are helping us to get al-Shabab out of our country.
QUIST-ARCTON: The Kenyan army has not indicated how long it will remain in southern Somalia. But the Somali and Kenyan governments stress they're working in tandem to restore peace to chronically unstable Somalia and drive out al-Shabab insurgents from both countries.

Welcome to the worst season of sitcoms everLast spring, EW declared the death of the sitcom. The format was creatively exhausted, our article argued, and audiences had grown weary of predictable punchlines and phony laugh tracks. We had no idea how right we were until we saw this season's sitcoms, unquestionably the worst crop of crap in television history.
Suffice it to say that the People's Choice Award nominees for best new comedy series include CBS' blander-than-bland ''Ladies Man,'' UPN's unwatchable rap spoof ''Shasta McNasty'' (soon to be retitled ''Shasta,'' like that'll make it funnier), and NBC's post-''Frasier'' fiasco ''Stark Raving Bad'' -- er, ''Mad.'' Fox's ''Futurama'' also got a nod, but it's a cartoon that debuted last season, so it doesn't count.
Okay, now let's look at the new comedy series that weren't nominated. Oops, it's kinda hard to do that, because so many of them have already been canceled. Remember NBC's ''The Mike O'Malley Show''? CBS' ''Work with Me''? ABC's ''Then Came You''? Caught you -- that last stinker still hasn't made it onto the air yet.
The few freshman survivors are barely hanging onto ratings life. ABC's ''Odd Man Out'' is a TGI Flop, while the net's ''Oh Grow Up'' will soon go on a well-deserved hiatus to make room for the return of ''Who Wants to Be a Millionaire.'' The only two new sitcoms that could be considered even remotely successful are ''The Parkers'' and ''Grown Ups,'' and that's only by UPN's ultra-low standards.
Granted, there are two veteran comedies that still produce big laughs on a regular basis: CBS' ''Everybody Loves Raymond'' and NBC's ''Friends.'' (Sorry, Kelsey Grammer, but after playing Dr. Crane for 15 years on ''Cheers'' and ''Frasier,'' your appeal is shrinking fast.) And two sophomore sitcoms could blossom into classics: NBC's ''Will & Grace'' and CBS' ''The King of Queens.'' No, they're not the same show.
But let's look back to the real Golden Age of Sitcoms -- the mid-'70s. CBS had four great sitcoms on one night with its Saturday block of ''All in the Family,'' ''M*A*S*H,'' ''The Mary Tyler Moore Show,'' and ''The Bob Newhart Show.'' Elsewhere in prime time were such gut-busters as ''The Odd Couple,'' ''Barney Miller,'' ''Sanford and Son,'' ''Maude,'' ''Happy Days,'' ''Good Times,'' ''Welcome Back, Kotter,'' ''Chico and the Man,'' and ''The Jeffersons.''
The cable network that airs some of these series, TV Land, has just issued a list of the 2000 best things about television. Topping the list is ''the situation comedy.'' Easy for them to say: Their shows are still funny, even decades later. Sure, we might still love ''Raymond'' and ''Friends,'' but do you think anyone will remember ''Ladies Man,'' ''Shasta McNasty,'' or ''Stark Raving Mad'' in the year 2025?

PHOENIX — Supporters of public financing asked a judge late Tuesday to block new higher campaign contribution limits from taking effect as scheduled while their legality is litigated.
Attorneys for the Citizens Clean Elections Commission and their allies contend the larger allowable donations were enacted illegally earlier this year. They contend lawmakers cannot let privately funded candidates take a lot more money without getting a three-fourths vote for the measure, which it did not get.
That is based on their argument that the limits are linked to the voter-approved program which allows candidates to get public financing if they do not take private dollars. And the Arizona Constitution says voter-approved laws can be amended only with a three-fourths vote, and only if the change furthers the purpose of the act.
Challengers had previously asked the state Supreme Court to intercede for a quick ruling, pointing out the higher limits take effect Sept. 13 for the 2014 election.
But the justices declined, saying the case should start in trial court. That, however, means there is no way to get a final ruling ahead of that Sept. 13 deadline.
Attorney Louis Hoffman, who also is a member of the commission, said the issue should not be left hanging while the case makes its way through the legal system.
"Candidates are looking to decide whether to run as Clean Elections candidates or whether to run at all," he said. Hoffman said their decision could be influenced on what is the law on donations, whether for themselves or foes.
Under current law, legislative candidates can get only $440 from any one donor; the figure is $912 for candidates for statewide office. The new law will boost that to $4,000.
The law also totally scraps the current $14,688 cap on how much legislative candidates can take from all political action committees.
Supporters of the law say they did not need a three-fourths vote because this does not amend the public financing law.

and mounting to a board."
No other board available today has the rigidity, warp-resistance and dual-sided glossy paper layers required for
more uniform and economical printing on aisle signs, point-of-purchase displays, kiosks and exhibits.

Champions League: Bayern Munich vs Arsenal: A Great Player and a Very Good Diver, Wenger's Description of Robben
- Order Reprints
- Text Size
By Deepak Vikraman | March 12, 2014 3:16 PM EST
"One of the best players in the world, but a very good diver" was how Arsene Wenger described winger Arjen Robben, who was yet again at his menacing best, in the second leg of the Champions League last 16 tie between Bayern Munich and Arsenal, while also falling down at contact from thin air.
At the end of the day, however, Bayern Munich were the better side over the two legs, with the defending European champions coming out 3-1 aggregate winners after the second leg ended in a 1-1 draw.
Wenger, though, insisted the tie might have panned out different had Wojciech Szczesny not been sent off in the first leg, with Bayern scoring both their goals at the Emirates after Arsenal went down to ten men.
"I felt it was not a red card, it's as simple as that. Any foul in the box is then a red card," Wenger reiterated. "Even UEFA has come out and said that they have to re-think that problem. First of all for me it was not a goalscoring opportunity because if Szczesny is really assured he can get a foul against him as well for a high foot of Robben.
"This situation can be analysed in both ways where you can give a foul against Robben for his foot being too high. But if you look well [at it] again when the ball goes after the control you will see that he never had a goal chance because the ball was in the feet of Sagna so it was never, never a goalscoring opportunity."
Arsenal, though, were far from their best in the second leg, unable to force the issue when the issue was crying out to be forced. Lukas Podolski, via an unbelievable non-decision, when he seemed to clearly push Philipp Lahm to get to the ball, equalised just two minutes after Bastian Schweinsteiger's opening goal in the 55th minute, but Arsenal could not bulge the net a few more times.
"I feel we had to defend a lot in the first half but we knew that being in the game at halftime we had a good chance to win the game," Wenger said on Tuesday night. "I believe that in the second half the opportunities were there but overall over the two games I feel that what made the difference is the decision to send our goalkeeper off in the first game.
"We played a 1-1 tonight and that decision had a huge impact. It was on the same player who got a penalty again tonight and that's the regret we have. Spirit wise we had everything until the end. Good luck to Bayern, they are a good side but I think they are this season more vulnerable than last year.
Arsenal needed to take a few risks going forward and apply a bit of pressure on the Bayern backline after pulling the game back to 1-1, with two more goals taking them to the quarterfinals, but that was hardly the case as the home team comfortably saw off the final half hour and could have even won the second leg 2-1 had Thomas Muller put a penalty past Lukasz Fabianski.
"Our defending, our spirit was good. The frustration we had was the last 20 minutes I felt that Bayern was very vulnerable defensively and that we didn't take advantage of that," Wenger added. "We always missed the first pass but I felt the situations were there where we could have made more of it.
"At the end of the day we never got them really under pressure. Even at 1-1 you could see they became suddenly nervous but because we never managed to make it 2-1, of course you could not really see how they would have responded. They are a good team, they are a great side with great players. They played well but we still have regrets over the two games."
The game was also under the spotlight due to Robben's insistence on falling down to the ground the moment any Arsenal defender came within five yards of him, with the Dutchman, after escaping a yellow card following a blatant dive inside the box, winning a very soft penalty in the final moments of the game, which was missed by Muller.
Wenger criticised Robben for making the most of the Szczesny challenge in the first leg, and the manager did not hold back on his comments after leg two.
"Robben is very good at getting the maximum of nothing and he is a great player and as well a very good diver, but it is a part of it," the Frenchman said.
"He gets in front of a player and then he slows down and goes down. He gets the freekicks. That's where we spoke about yesterday that the referee, if he gives him a yellow card on the first one when he goes down, he will not do it again."
