Is it a common problem with all 2002 Impalas to have to window regulators/motors fail,even on power windows that are almost never used? I had to have my drivers side front widow repaired twice, understandable. My passenger side window fixed once, rarely used and now my rear driver side window needs to be fixed for the 2nd time and it is rarely used. Never had this issue with previous vehicles, even those I have owned for 10 years.

The Last Word In Business
And today's last word in business is: barbershop battle.
Barbers and beauticians are splitting hairs over the swirling red, white and blue striped pole that traditionally stands outside a barber shop. Barbers in several states are pushing legislation to prevent shops without a licensed barber from using the striped pole.
Many hair stylists say that they offer the same services as a licensed barber. But barbers say there are differences. For instance, only they can give shaves with a straight razor.
Some states are even proposing fines. They're already in effect in Ohio and extend to pet grooming facilities, which can be fined up to $500 for using the pole. Quite a haircut, that would be, for giving a haircut.
That's the business news on MORNING EDITION, from NPR News. I'm Renee Montagne.

M83's Anthony Gonzalez has been busy lately, though not with new material for his band – with help from Joseph Trapanese, he's penned the soundtrack for the new sci-fi movie Oblivion (not like the Grimes song), which stars Tom Cruise. Far in advance of the film's April 19 release date, Gonzalez has teased this beautiful track, "StarWaves," to get you amped up for both the movie and the soundtrack. It's a gorgeous, eerie cut that perfectly evokes an alien, futuristic vibe. Check it out.

ICTSI's announcement earlier this month that it is investing over $130m in a long term deal with Iraq's Port Authority to operate and enhance container handling capacity at Umm Qasr illustrates the opportunities ahead for ocean carriers, says Drewry's 'Container Insight Weekly'. Investment by major terminal operators in Umm Qasr shows growing confidence in Iraq's container growth potential, whilst sanctions continue to bite in neighbouring Iran. Iraq's sole container port already saw volumes jump by more than 65% in 2013, up to 570,000 teu. Admittedly this is from a relatively low base but it remains impressive growth and suggests that the country's cargo base is expanding from military cargoes and construction materials to consumer goods and manufactured items. The growth in Iraq is in marked contrast to Iran where sanctions hit volumes hard in 2012 and 2013. Estimated 2013 container traffic for the country is down 30% on the 2011 peak, equating to a drop of almost one million teu. According to Drewry Maritime Research (DMR) the recent trend in port volumes for the two countries is slightly at variance to the overall trend in trade in containerisable commodities measured by Customs Authorities. This data suggests a recovery in Iran's trade in 2013, whilst Iraq's 2013 growth is not as pronounced as the port throughput figures suggest. However, it must be noted that this trade data includes overland as well as seaborne flows and these are significant – not least between Iran and Iraq themselves – plus the data covers all cargoes which are considered containerisable, but this does not necessarily mean that they were containerised. Also noteworthy is the almost complete absence of export cargo from Iraq. The rapid growth in Umm Qasr's volumes combined with enhancements to its terminal facilities may, over time, lead carriers to consider making direct calls in Iraq. However, the access channel to the port is long (over 100 km) and requires regular dredging, and night navigation is not currently permitted. A maximum vessel arrival draft of 11 metres is quoted by ships' agents and this is based on a tidal window (high water). In addition, whilst some direct services do call as far up the Gulf as Bahrain and Dammam (around 300 nautical miles from Jebel Ali), Umm Qasr is a further 300 nautical miles away. Both Iran and Iraq have large populations (78 million and 30 million respectively) which have the potential to generate substantially higher container traffic once political and economic conditions allow. Whilst Iraqi volumes remain much smaller then Iran's, Iraq has greater scope for growth with its teu per capita still markedly low despite the recent strong volume growth. DMR points out that Umm Qasr will not have this fast growing market all to itself though, as other ports and projects are eyeing the opportunities too. For example, neighbouring Kuwait is developing a new, very large $1.2bn greenfield port project Mubarak Al Kabeer (MAK) at Boubyan Island which clearly has transit cargo to and from Iraq as a target market. Land reclamation work has been completed and infrastructure construction is reportedly ongoing, although the project has been delayed. Originally the intention was to develop 60 berths, but this was reduced to 24 berths following a bitter dispute with the Iraqi government over the port's development. Phase 1 of the development will see 1,200m of quay for container handling and is expected to be operational by 2017. Iraq also has an even more ambitious greenfield port project, the $6.1bn Al-Faw port, located across the water from Boubyan. However, whilst the foundation stone was laid as far back as 2012, the project has stalled due to political wrangling. Further afield, the potential for serving Iraq overland from the Mediterranean remains significant. For example, while Umm Qasr is the closest port to Baghdad, Iskenderun in eastern Turkey is closer to Mosul in northern Iraq . Having said this, the overland route has numerous logistical challenges and security issues. Nevertheless, interest exists and this is one reason why MSC-affiliated terminal operator Terminal Investment Limited (TIL) has taken a stake in Assanport, an emerging deep water terminal near Iskenderun. Drewry's view Whilst Iraq's container traffic will soon become another major magnet attracting ocean carriers' direct services into the Mid-East Gulf, deep-sea vessel calls at Umm Qasr still remain off the radar screen due to its distant location and difficult access channel.

Connecticut Bill to Limit Firearms to One Round
How far will liberals push their hostility to our Second Amendment liberties? As far as we let them. If they don't get sufficient resistance to their attack on "assault weapons" and "high-capacity" magazines, the next step could look something like this actual proposed bill from Connecticut:
Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives in General Assembly convened:
That the general statutes be amended to establish a class C felony offense, except for certain military and law enforcement personnel and certain gun clubs, for (1) any person or organization to purchase, sell, donate, transport, possess or use any gun except one made to fire a single round, (2) any person to fire a gun containing more than a single round, (3) any person or organization to receive from another state, territory or country a gun made to fire multiple rounds, or (4) any person or organization to purchase, sell, donate or possess a magazine or clip capable of holding more than one round.
Imagine if Melinda Herman, who was chased into her attic crawlspace with her children by a home invader who finally left under his own power after taking five rounds from her .38, had been limited by some sanctimonious bureaucrat to a single bullet.
Next after this comes the ban on muskets.

The front-page article The Jerusalem Post headlined "Classified IDF information open to the world on Facebook" (April 13) highlighted the growing problem of sensitive military information leaking into the public domain through social networking sites. The ability to easily capture people, terrain and facilities through digital photography, combined with the speed of transmission and improved approaches to organizing and searching digital information, mean that military secrets are now harder than ever to protect. On Google Earth, satellite imagery highlights the location and layout of Israel's military bases, and Palestinians use the system to plan rocket attacks. On Flickr, Photobucket and Webshot photographs of soldiers and military equipment can easily be found. Facebook gives richer data, allowing a person's friends, job and current "status" to be examined - but it also provides more protection, if people choose to use it. The IDF and the Israeli government need to improve their information security, not just at the technical level, but at the levels of policy, procedure and education. The most effective defense must come from soldiers themselves. Reminding them of the danger they create when leaking information into the public domain is the first and most effective preventative measure. THE Post story contributes significantly in this regard. While the publicizing of security leaks always encourages similar attempts, the computer security community has for a long time maintained that once a solution is found, public awareness is the best security. In this case the solution is simple, though the implementation may require some effort. It is far easier to prevent the release of sensitive information before pictures leave the army base. Better still is to prevent problematic pictures being taken in the first place. However, the IDF must be wary of going overboard. A complete ban is unlikely to be respected, even with serious penalties for noncompliance. A more sensible approach would be to establish a system whereby soldiers get permission from their officers before taking pictures, and officers then check the pictures before they leave the security of the base. A clearance procedure would include a checklist of things that must not be shown, as well as guidelines for soldiers indicating the types of pictures that are unlikely to be problematic - such as pictures with open terrain in the background and an absence of military hardware, infrastructure or identifying landmarks. Once guidelines are prepared and issued, the IDF should declare an amnesty period for those who have pictures on-line, allowing them to check their pictures against the guidelines and resolve any problems. Assistance in removing problematic material should be available without penalty. These measures would resolve the immediate threat and reduce, though not eliminate, future risk. IN THE long term, the IDF's best defense against leaked information is the soldiers themselves. The two Facebook groups "Guarding our IDF" and "Can't you see you're helping the enemy," set up by soldiers, are a good start. Going a step further, two people in each IDF-related group on Facebook should be asked to join one of these groups and be designated "clearance officers" in their own group. This approach, undertaken informally by the community, would act as a safety net and damage control mechanism outside the formal IDF structures. While prevention is the best cure, there will always be mistakes. Once the material is on-line, a community-based approach is the only response. In planning for the future, more attention needs to be paid to Web 2.0 and specially to sites like Facebook. The importance of secrecy is clear when it comes to the IDF, yet on-line privacy is something all Israelis should be taught well before entering the army. The threat resulting from leaked information on Facebook and other social networking sites stretches from national security right through to personal relationships. Employers today regularly use social networking sites as well as search engines to build up a profile of potential interview candidates. Jobs have been gained and lost over information found on the Internet. And the amount of information found on-line is likely to grow, as is the ease with which it can be found. To cope with the potential threat, education must begin in the schools. In an increasingly globalized world where the boundaries of personal privacy, as well as of government and corporate secrecy, are increasingly under attack, education can help protect the Israeli public, both individually and collectively. The threat is real, but together we can prepare for it. The writer is a Legacy Heritage Fellow at NGO Monitor in Jerusalem.

A new study confirms the view that complicated programs for executives to sell shares in their companies generally come into play just before the stock price slips.
Gradient Analytics produced the study, which was obtained by The Wall Street Journal.
The arrangements for executives to sell their shares "appear to be used opportunistically, because they are followed on average by a share decline and unusual levels of negative corporate events," Carr Bettis, co-author of the Gradient report, told The Journal.
The sales strategy consists of prepaid variable forward contracts. Executives generally establish the program with securities firms.
The way the contracts work is that the executive agrees to give the brokerage a set amount of shares at a date several years down the road in exchange for cash at the outset.
The cash often amounts to 75 percent to 90 percent of the stock's price when the deal is struck.
If the share price drops during the contract, the securities firm takes the hit. If the stock price gains, the executive receives a slice of the profit.
So it's a win-win for executives.
Researchers say they don't have strong evidence that executives arrange such deals when they have confidential negative information. But it does sound a bit suspicious.
Bloomberg reported in late April that insiders and executive were selling stocks at the fastest rate since the bear stock market began. They were taking advantage of the stock market's sharp rise from its March lows.

Description The present invention relates to a system for routing a high frequency signal in an integrated circuit package. Integrated circuits, such as microprocessors, are formed on semiconductor wafers, which are then sawed into individual semiconductor chips, also known as microelectronic dies. Each resulting die is then mounted on a package substrate, and the package substrate is then mounted on a motherboard. The package substrate provides structural integrity for communication with the die. The package substrate often has a number of Ball Grid Array (BGA) solder ball contact formations on an opposing side, which are electrically connected to the integrated circuit through vias and signal routers in and on the package substrate between the integrated circuit and the motherboard. In existing assemblies of the above kind, on-die device parasitic capacitance and package substrate parasitic inductance result in a low bandwidth for high-speed buses due to reduced signal quality at the driver and receiver circuits. At a high signaling bit rate (e.g., 15 GHz and above), a 3�-4� reduction of on-die device parasitic capacitance is required to provide the required bandwidth of the high-speed bus. Additionally, as a result of this parasitic capacitance and inductance, there are undesirable deviations, such as crosstalk, wherein the waveform on a trace couples with an adjacent trace. Crosstalk causes smaller signal amplitudes and degraded transition times, making it more difficult to determine the correct phase for each particular signal. Parasitic capacitance also interacts with inductance planes in the package substrate to create resonance which results in return loss, preventing higher frequencies and reducing signal quality. The invention is described by way of example with reference to the accompanying drawings, wherein: The package substrate 12 has a top surface 22 and a bottom surface 24 and a plurality of alternating conducting and insulating layers therein. The microelectronic die 14 is mounted on the top surface 22 of the package substrate 12 at a central portion thereof. The microelectronic die 14 includes an integrated circuit 36 formed in and on a semiconductor substrate 37. The integrated circuit 36 includes a multitude of electronic components, such as transistors, capacitors, diodes, and the like, and a plurality of alternating insulating and conductive metal layers over the electronic components. The conductive layers are patterned to interconnect the electronic components and so complete the circuit 36. The integrated circuit may for example be a microprocessor. The package 10 includes signal transmitting elements (not shown) that transmit signals between the integrated circuit located in the microelectronic die 14 and driver and receiver circuitries located on the package substrate 12. These signal transmitting elements include differential pairs of signal routers. Each differential pair includes a first signal router that transmits current in one direction and a second signal router that runs parallel to the first signal router to complete a circuit and allow the current to return. In accordance with the present invention, the resonant frequency of the traces is increased well above the signaling frequency range in order to accurately transmit a high-frequency signal. The equation for resonant frequency, f, is:
Referring to Each of the traces 42 and 44 has a rectangular cross-section with a width 60 of 28 μm and a thickness 62 of 15 μm. The first trace 42 and the second trace 44 are separated by a distance 64 of 56 μm. The projections 50 extend from each of the first and second traces 42, 44. The projections 50 on the first trace 42 extend from the side of the first trace adjacent to the second trace 44, and the projections on the second trace 44 extend from the side of the second trace adjacent the first trace 42. The projections 50 are arranged interjacently, such that each projection 50 on the first trace is between two projections on the second trace 44. The projections 50 are equidistantly spaced along the length of each of the traces 42, 44. The projections 50 are desirably spaced such that the harmonic passband for the fundamental mode is at a very high frequency. A distance 66 between each of the projections 50 may be any value or range of values between about The actual number of projections 50 extending from each of the traces 42, 44 depends on the length of the trace and the distance between each of the projections 50. The shape of the projections 50 is square, for example, with side lengths 68 of 30 μm and a thickness 70 of 15 μm. The projections 50 are solid and metallic. The projections 50 are formed with the trace in the masking process. In use, a signal is routed through the traces 42, 44 and/or trace 58 and the projections extending therefrom, connecting contacts on the carrier substrate with the integrated circuit on the die. The projections decrease the inductance and resistance of each of the traces, thereby increasing the resonant frequency of each of the traces. The projections also create a low-pass filter effect in the package substrate. One advantage of this invention is improved bandwidth for high-speed signals. Another advantage of this invention is that the signaling frequency may be increased. Another advantage of this invention is improved signal quality. The projections also reduce return loss and cross talk by about 4.5 dB. Other embodiments of the invention may use signal transmitting elements other than traces, such as, for example, a signal router, a rectangular waveguide, and the like. In some embodiments, the signal transmitting elements are coplanar. Other embodiments of the invention may include projections on another side of the traces, and even on all sides of the traces, as long as leakage is within acceptable limits. Different shapes and sizes of projections may be used in other embodiments. Examples of different shapes for the projections include round, trapezoidal, triangular, rectangular, and the like. In some other embodiments, the distance between each of the projections may also be somewhat below 0.25λgo or above 0.125λgo. Different materials may also be used for the projections. The apparatus may be used on different types of semiconductor packages or boards. Different processes and methods of forming the projections and traces may be used. The output buffer 75 drives a low voltage swing signal into the signal router 76. In some embodiments, the output buffer 75 is a clock that provides the signal routed by the signal router 76. The signal router 76 may be implemented as a signal router as described above with reference to The bus 72 may include one or more buses connected to each other through various bridges, controllers and/or adapters as is well known in the art. In one embodiment the I/O controller 86 includes a USB (Universal Serial Bus) adapter for controlling USB peripherals and an IEEE 1394 controller for IEEE 1394 compliant peripherals. Note that while Although the present invention has been described in terms of certain preferred embodiments, those skilled in the art will recognize that other and further changes and modifications may be made hereto without departing from the spirit of the invention, and it is intended to claim all such changes and modifications as fall within the true scope of the invention. Accordingly, the scope of the present invention is not to be limited by the particular embodiments described, but is to be defined only by reference to the appended claims and equivalents thereof.

Philadelphia Rock Gyms challenges climbers of all skill levels with 2,000 square feet of climbing terrain, 1,500 square feet of bouldering plains, and more than 30 top ropes. Initiates to the vertical sport can get the hang of climbing basics during the gym?s variety of lessons, which impart skills such as proper technique and the ability to tell which rocks open a supervillain's secret lair. The gym also features a variety of team-building opportunities and private room rentals, as well as a pro shop that outfits patrons with the proper climbing equipment available for rent or purchase.
Rebel Race's military-style obstacle courses challenge athletes from all backgrounds to shed humdrum day-to-day routines to experience the primal joys of mud, sweat and glory. Emerging from the mire in various states across the country, each Rebel Race packs its rucksack with tests of physical and mental toughness, rousing racers and washing machines alike to triumph in the face of sloppy opposition. After dashing through fire, climbing walls, and scaling mountains of hay, race participants bask in the collective kudos of parties, which include live entertainment, food, and beer for purchase. Camping options encourage participants and spectators to transform races into weekend getaways, while awards recognize each day's standout competitors and most-humble mud pits.
"Summer experiences for children should be fun, enriching and affordable." That's the overarching philosophy that Greenhill Day Camp runs by, and it's no surprise that it puts children's needs at the top. Connected to the exploration-centric Plymouth Meeting Friends School, the camp builds those experiences for kids each day with educational summertime activities. Camp sessions are grouped both by age and by theme, giving children the chance to choose a preferred camp week?perhaps one based on learning culinary skills or the wonders of science. In between the daily morning assembly and the campers' sleepy evening commutes home, they spend time splashing at the indoor pool, crafting sculptures from recycled finds, and figuring out which counselor might be the one who's cool with a surprise puppy visitor.
Knowledgeable, friendly locals enlighten visitors on their city's rich history, art, culture, and dining scene during Philadelphia Urban Adventures' informative walking excursions. Following a philosophy of responsible travel—which aims to support local businesses whenever possible—the guides steer sightseers through intriguing neighborhoods and districts such as Center City, the 9th Street Italian Market, and the campuses of Drexel University and the University of Pennsylvania. Along the way, they make pit stops at local pubs, cafés, galleries, and food trucks, working to cultivate an authentic experience for all guests. They also dispense helpful tips, such as how to talk to locals and where to find good views of cheesesteaks in their natural habitat.
The City Mad Dash builds competitive camaraderie by sending teams of no more than five individuals on an urban scavenger hunt, armed with nothing but a smartphone as their guide. Participants activate the four-hour trek by logging into the GooseChase mobile application, rife with more than 40 missions to tackle urban landscape and more than 50 ways to capture rogue geese. Though assignments remain secret until the race, example activities include working covertly in a service job where team members are not employed, cleaning a stranger's car windshield, and convincing brave pedestrians to receive an on-street dental exam. Tasks are completed when a clear and creative photo is sent to a team of judges. The squad to accomplish the most challenges and interact with its city in the most inventive, least evil manner during the four hours earns $200, the title of Ultimate Scavenger Hunter, and a complimentary invisibility cloak. Participants can relive the action through an online album of photographs from every team's adventure. An after-party follows the event until 5 p.m.
Helmed by a team of passionate climbing coaches, all three of The Gravity Vault's locations surround climbers with more than 13,500 square feet of climbable terrain. Walls tower past 40 feet, mimicking such natural rock formations as overhangs, keyhole arches, and slabs, and bouldering areas challenge climbers with a latticework of problems that?unlike most of life's?can't simply be solved with dynamite and a pair of roller skates. Visitors can choose from up to 60 top-rope stations, trusting either the trained staff or a certified fellow climber to man the ropes while they scramble to the summit. When not dangling from a hold or saving lost kittens from a rappel ledge, members can bulk up in the cardiovascular-training area.

Independent Appeal: Ben's mother couldn't save him. Then Barnardo's stepped in...
How do you stop black boys from the Leeds district of Chapeltown graduating to a life of crime? Jonathan Brown finds out
Tuesday 07 December 2010
When Ben Wilson's behaviour started to go badly awry soon after his 13th birthday his mother tried the usual remedies. She read books about dealing with adolescents, set out rules, offered incentives and drew up progress charts, but the calls kept coming from school complaining about his threatening attitude.
Although at home everything seemed to be going well, once he was inside the gates of his high-achieving school it was another story. "I was having fights and disrespecting teachers and other people and being totally out of order. I was shouting and swearing and being abusive. I felt no one listened to me and I felt frustrated because when I had a problem no one would do anything about it," explains Ben.
His mum Deanne, a qualified teacher, was perplexed and horrified in equal measure. Nothing seemed to work and the stresses on the family were intolerable. She was called to collect Ben so many times that she had to quit her job. "You think, 'I am a teacher and this shouldn't be happening to me,'" she says. "It felt really frustrating. I did everything but there was no place I could go for help. When I asked my doctor if there were any referrals they said mental health, but I thought that was too drastic."
Ben's behaviour deteriorated to an unacceptable level. By year nine he held the school record for the number of detentions and "inclusion" sessions where he was taught apart from his classmates, but the final straw came when he threatened a member of staff. "A teacher got in my face and I told him to get out before I hit him," he admits. Ben was told he would be permanently excluded from school.
The Wilsons knew this would have disastrous implications for a young man who, despite aggressive behaviour towards his teachers, was a caring brother and son and highly intelligent. "A lot of it was pride," he recalls. "There was peer pressure from my friends. I didn't want to look like a chump in front of them. When I put my hand up the teachers ignored me so I'd shout and they would say, 'Shut up.' I let that get the better of me."
Luckily for Ben his school and parents worked together to find an answer. Reach is a project started by the community in the Chapeltown area of Leeds in 1994 to help black youths stay away from crime after being excluded from school.
The inner-city area has in the past been blighted by rioting and poverty still has high levels of unemployment among its well-established Afro-Caribbean population. Today Reach, which is funded by Barnardo's – one of the three charities in this year's Independent Christmas Appeal – deals with adolescent boys and girls aged 11-16 from all backgrounds although the majority are still from black and ethnic minority families.
Its service manager Ian St Rose has seen a lot of youngsters like Ben cross his path. Many are angry, many are confused, he says. "Some have been holding everything in for so long they are like a bottle of Coke that has been shaken up and they are ready to explode," he says.
Those referred to him undergo a 12-week course. Typically nine or 10 youngsters use the service four days a week, during which they are steered away from drugs and crime and learn to evaluate their lives and the impact their actions are having on their futures. All aim to leave with a qualification and credit towards their GCSEs plus improved self-esteem and better behaviour. Nearly all return to education.
For many it is the first time they have come across young black teachers who can relate to them. Others simply need to hear the positive message from someone they respect outside their own family.
A lot of young people resort to reinforcing the stereotype of the inner-city kid as their only way to exert power, says Mr St Rose. "Young people are exposed to so much more from the media and peer pressure. We are trying to get some balance for them."
Two years on, Ben is back in school studying for 14 GCSEs and, assuming he doesn't play for Manchester United, he wants to be a pilot. "At Reach there were kids like me. The staff said it was my life and no one could ruin it except me. They said the teachers can make or break you but it is up to you. The teachers there were different. They didn't call us children but treated us like young people. They made you feel respected," he says.
For his mother Deanne, Ben's transformation has been life changing: "He has matured and has realised his mistakes. Without Reach he would have ended up permanently excluded. Now he is getting cards that say 'well done'. He is doing exceptionally well."
The charities in this year's Independent Christmas Appeal
Children around the world cope daily with problems that are difficult for most of us to comprehend. For our Christmas Appeal this year we have chosen three charities which support vulnerable children everywhere.
* Children on the Edge was founded by Anita Roddick 20 years ago to help children institutionalised in Romanian orphanages. It still works in eastern Europe, supporting children with disabilities and girls at risk of sex trafficking. But it now works with Aids orphans in South Africa, post-tsunami trauma in Indonesia, disturbance in East Timor and Burmese refugee sex slaves in India and Thailand. www.childrenontheedge.org
* ChildHope works to bring hope and justice, colour and fun into the lives of extremely vulnerable children experiencing different forms of violence in 11 countries in Africa, Asia and South America. www.childhope.org.uk
* Barnardo's works with more than 100,000 of the most disadvantaged children in 415 specialised projects in communities across the UK. It works with children in poverty, homeless runaways, children caring for an ill parent, pupils at risk of being excluded from school, children with disabilities, teenagers leaving care, children who have been sexually abused and those with inappropriate sexual behaviour. It runs parenting programmes. www.barnardos.org.uk

"Imagine if we did something different." Those were just six words out of close to 7,000 that President Barack Obama spoke during his State of the Union address. He was addressing both houses of Congress, which are controlled by his bitter foes. Most importantly, though, he was addressing the country. From whose lives has the shadow of crisis passed? And for whom is this Union strong?

Elizabeth Barrett Browning
Sonnet XXXVIII: First Time He Kissed Me
First time he kissed me, he but only kissed
The finger of this hand wherewith I write;
And ever since, it grew more clean and white,
Slow to world-greetings, quick with its "Oh, list,"
When the angels speak. A ring of amethyst
I could not wear here, plainer to my sight,
Than that first kiss. The second passed in height
The first, and sought the forehead, and half missed,
Half falling on the hair. O beyond meed!
That was the chrism of love, which love's own crown,
With sanctifying sweetness, did precede.
The third upon my lips was folded down
In perfect, purple state; since when, indeed,
I have been proud and said, "My love, my own."

COMPLETE edition of the interactive "choose next panel" comic
4.01 / 5.00 8,172 ViewsSet in a strange world full of different cages, each one with its own number. Although beautiful and magical it's also creepy and enslaving… Whomever is taking care of the cages had started to do it more and more rarely and now everything is on the verge of self decay.
Out of nowhere you find yourself in one particular cage – number 26. Who put you there and why? Are you ever gonna be free again and how? Questions you must seek the answers yourself…
well, this game was just what I needed after my aspie dad went psycho on me and I feared for my life so I threw a tv remote at him coz I thought he was gonna hurt me/ so yay for awesome uplifting games! ;)
I loved the graphics and the music so much, but too easy game and short.
the game has a bug when i clicked off of the radio it just went dark and starteted walking randomly, cool setting though.
Lot of fun, and I liked the set up. Playing from being trapped inside of a cage was interesting, and I liked how the whole game was set up. The only thing I found irritating was how many times I had to click on the gears positions before they finally set in. But aside from that, great game!

JASPER, Tenn. -- After months of sending out requests for proposals, the Marion County Commission is nearly ready to hire a new ambulance service.
County Mayor John Graham said the commission's Ambulance Committee recently interviewed three prospective companies for the job.
Puckett EMS in Austell, Ga., was the clear choice, he said.
"There was unanimous approval [by the committee] to make a recommendation to the board that we begin the process of entering into contract negotiations with Puckett EMS," Graham said. "This was obviously, in the committee members' minds, the best option for the county, and I would agree with that."
The board unanimously approved the committee's recommendation.
Puckett EMS launched a new operations division in Chattanooga last year, officials said, and the company is now a service partner with Erlanger Health System.
Officials said a new chairman for the Ambulance Committee will be chosen soon. Graham, County Attorney Billy Gouger and that person will negotiate the contract with Puckett EMS and bring it back to the Ambulance Committee for consideration, they said.
