Lawmakers propose widening 'home rule' plan
CHARLESTON, W.Va. -- West Virginia would allow four more cities or towns to pursue increased governing powers through a successful "home rule" pilot program, under a draft bill discussed by lawmakers Monday.
The measure would also scrap all tax changes enacted so far under the pilot. That appears directed at Huntington, which was sued after it sought to replace a $3-a-week user fee with a 1 percent occupation tax under the program. While the draft bill would allow future attempts to increases, change or redistribute local taxes, at least 55 percent in a resulting municipal vote would have to approve. It would also limit any new fees to within the city or town's boundaries.
Presented to a House-Senate subcommittee, the draft would extend the pilot until 2018 while inviting municipalities with at least 2,000 people to apply to join. Huntington took part in the initial five-year phase along with Wheeling, Bridgeport and Charleston, the state's most populous city. Their mayors and other officials have declared the pilot a success, telling lawmakers it has allowed them to tackle blight, improve services and reduce costs for residents and businesses.
West Virginia operates under a particularly centralized government structure. A recent audit of the pilot program, citing the positive reviews, recommended extending the power-shifting to all cities with at least 2,000 people. The state's Municipal League prefers the small-scale approach reflected in the bill, but wants the draft's tax-voiding language amended, Executive Director Lisa Dooley told the subcommittee.
Dooley cited how home rule allowed Huntington to restructure its business and occupation tax into a 1 percent sales tax, without any blowback. The city's new mayor, Steve Williams, also told lawmakers last month that he plans to work with the City Council to rescind the tax that prompted the lawsuit.
The sales tax should be kept, along with well-received changes by Wheeling and Bridgeport to their business licensing fees, Dooley said.
"All taxes aren't bad," Dooley said, adding that, "Those seem to me to like they're easy to fix."
Delegate Gary Howell suggested that the program admit at least one municipality with a population below 2,000. The Mineral County Republican said one such community in his district, Carpendale, wishes to take part.
GOP lawmakers, particularly in the House, have been the most-vocal foes of the home-rule pilot. A group led by Delegate Kelli Sobonya, a Cabell County Republican whose district included Huntington, sought without success to repeal the program last year. These GOP delegates also have opposed most of the measures that have embraced proposals emerging from the pilot by adopting them statewide. Howell voted against one such bill, addressing business licensing, in 2011.
Republicans approach this year's session with 46 of the House's 100 seats, after picking up 11 in the election. The House-Senate subcommittee lacked enough members present Monday to vote on whether to endorse the draft. It meets one more time before the regular session begins Feb. 13.

Customer Reviews
- Great for simply sensitive skin too! Review by B. F. , Birmingham, MI
Price Value Quality After reading about this product for a friend who has rosacea. After reading about Calm, Cool & Corrected I thought it could be good moisturizer for my very sensitive acne-prone skin even though I do not have rosacea. I love this product! My skin looks great and have had no sensitivites with this product I've had with almost all others.
- Finally good skin Review by R H, Williamsport, PA
Price Value Quality I love this stuff, it keeps my Rosacea in check & my skin feels & looks like it did before I had Rosacea. The only problem I have is how little you get of the product for the huge price. But it does work!
- Worth the $$$ Review by Jamilah, New York, NY
Price Value Quality At the beginning of the year, my skin started acting crazy as a result of additional stress on the job and overuse of glycolic and other acids. About a month ago, my skin looked horrible. Scars and breakouts on top of the scars as well as peeling and dryness plagued me daily. Nothing would treat it. In tears, I rushed to Sephora and was recommended this product. Skeptical, I purchased it and four weeks later, I've stopped breaking out almost entirely, dryness is unheard of..scars are fading, skin is glowing again!!
- Great for my mild rosacea Review by LS, London, UK
Price Value Quality This product worked wonderfully for my skin. I have mild rosacea which is most noticeable on my cheeks. Within days of using this product I noticed my skin texture was smoother, the redness faded, and my cheeks weren't as sensitive to heat and products. I only use this product once a day and it works--twice would probably be even better. This product is a great investment for skin care.
- Didn't work for me... Review by LJE, Phoenix, AZ
Price Value Quality This actually made my skin more oily and did nothing for redness. The first and only DermaDr product I've ever returned.
- Really Works! Review by Cincinnati, OH
Price Value Quality I have had issues finding products that work with my extremely sensative skin, particulary the skin on my face.
- The first thing that has ever helped my awful rosacea/acne Review by WSB, Macon, Georgia
Price Value Quality I just ordered the Calm, Cool and Corrected, and I am extremely impressed. After only 2 days of using it, my rosacea AND acne have cleared and my skin is neither dry nor oily. I am allergic to metrogel so I have been trying to treat with various creams - I think I have tried most everything on the market. CC&C REALLY works. A few creams I have tried have helped with the redness/dryness but make the acne worse. This helps both, and I am giddy about the results I have already gotten!
- Great product Review by UK
Price Value Quality I have very dry, sensitive skin and this cream has helped a lot. It is absorbed quickly and is non-greasy, so it's perfect under make-up. I'd like to see a 100ml pot!
- Something finally works! Review by A.W., Kansas City, MO USA
Price Value Quality I had struggled with my skin since having my last child at age 29. It became oily, and I had little closed whiteheads all over my forehead, neck and chest. I also had redness, which seemed to get worse over the years. Finally, I picked up Dr. Kunin's book at the library, and was really impressed with what she had to say. I tried this product, and within 10 days, saw a huge difference in the amount of bumps on my face. That was 5 months ago, and I am totally bump free for the first time in 5 years!. I had tried so many other things, even prescriptions, and none worked like Calm, Cool & Corrected. I use it morning and night as a moisturizer after washing my face. I have also used it on my neck and chest area, and those bumps are gone as well. Yea!
- This is the BEST STUFF ever!! Review by SMA, Montgomery, AL USA
Price Value Quality I've suffered with rosacea for many years. I've been to different dermatologists, tried different prescription medicines, non-prescription creams, gotten facials, laser treatments and gone as far as having laser skin resurfacing done, all with minimal or short-term results in the improvement of this skin disorder. This stuff is AMAZING – no more burning, watery, lumpy, painful, hot skin on my nose and I can see a marked decrease in the redness!! I also love the fact that it helps my oily skin, no more being embarrassed from not only the redness but also the "shines" that result from other creams I've tried (nothing like a red AND shiny nose, am I right? Ha!). I was skeptical in trying this but let me tell you, taking the step and ordering and using this is one of THE best things I've ever done. Thank you so much, DermaDoctor!!!

Release Date: Thursday, May 27, 2010
The State Journalby Brynn Crotty
The Master of Business Administration Leadership program at the University of Charleston's Graduate School of Business, has given us a great opportunity to study and work in Varese, Italy, as part of our international study practicum.
During May, five groups of graduate students are developing marketing and export plans for five small Italian manufacturing businesses that seek to introduce their products into the North American market.
In just the week and a half that our teams have been in Italy, we have gained considerable knowledge and insight regarding the products and operations of European manufacturing companies.
In particular, we have observed the importance of organizations such as the Association of Small and Medium Size Companies,or CONFAPI, in promoting the interests of their members. While in the aggregate such companies represent 95 percent of the industry in Italy, individually the firms are quite small.
On the first Monday of our visit, we spent the day at CONFAPI Varese, the regional branch of the countrywide CONFAPI organization. We met with several CONFAPI staff, two University of Insubria professors and a number of business leaders who discussed the European Union, the recently passed European Small Business Act and the role of CONFAPI relative to small and medium-sized enterprises in Italy. In short order, it became apparent that the Italian business environment differs in a number of ways from the American experience.
While businesses in all countries operate under different regulations, taxes and so forth, the role of government in Italy is significantly greater than in the U.S. One of the CONFAPI executives, Pasquale Catalfamo, described Italy as being in an "overprotective situation."
Mr. Catalfamo has lived with the differences first hand as the owner Catalfer srl (Varese) and as a member of the executive committee of CONFAPI (Varese) with responsibility for international commerce.
One of the things that struck us as particularly unusual was the existence of national contracts for all employees. These contracts fix the minimum wages that be paid, the number of weeks of vacation, the procedures for dismissing an employee and even the length of the lunch hour.
The contracts are created every three or five years and are binding on all employers in a sector (manufacturing, retail, financial, etc.) regardless of the specific circumstances facing individual businesses. In other words, when a firm hires a new worker, that person's employment is governed by a fixed national contract based on the company's industry.
We were not surprised to learn that these contracts also make it quite difficult for an employer to fire or lay off an employee -- as Mr. Catalfamo explained the situation: "Once you hire an employee, you are married to him for life."
As a consequence of these national contracts, the role of CONFAPI and other business associations takes on greater significance than similar organizations in the U.S. Individually, the small Italian firms wield little influence in the contract negotiation process. Collectively (through CONFAPI), however, the needs of the small and mid-sized firms can be better represented at the bargaining table.
While the national contracts are designed to protect workers from the ups and downs of a market economy, they make it much more risky for companies to create jobs when business is good. Italian employment rates have now decreased significantly as more and more businesses are looking either to automate their manufacturing systems or expand abroad, as they are fearful of hiring a new employee "for life." In addition, Italian businesses also are moving to other countries to take advantage of attractive tax incentives offered for new business development.
Not only do these Italian companies have the experience necessary to export successfully to the United States, but they also have the language skills that are critical for effective communication.
In an interview with Pasquale Catalfamo, he told our team that "many European managers speak many different languages, and this is a definite advantage to European companies. In the United States, not many people learn to speak two or more languages fluently, and thus it makes it much harder for a business to become international in a foreign-speaking country."
In fact, during one meeting with Mr. Catalfamo, he took two brief calls from his distributors. One call was conducted in French and other in German after which he returned to our conversation in English.
Brynn Crotty, Qiting Yang and Apinya Anglomekleio are students in the Master of Business Administration and Leadership at the University of Charleston.

The hilarious and poignant account of how one woman found her comedic voice.
Growing up in the Midwest, the youngest child of Catholic parents, Lizz Winstead learned early that the straightforward questions she posed to various authority figures around her—her parents, her parish priest, even an anti-abortion counselor—prompted many startled looks and uncomfortable silences, but few plausible answers. Her questions rattled adults because they exposed the inconsistencies and hypocrisies in the people and institutions she confronted.
Yet she didn't let that deter her. In Lizz Free or Die, Winstead vividly recounts how she fought to find her own voice, both as a comedian and as a woman, and how humor became her most powerful weapon in confronting life's challenges.
Uproarious and surprising, honest and poignant, this no-holds-barred collection of autobiographical essays gives an in-depth look into the life and creativity of one of today's most influential comic voices. In writing about her naive longing to be a priest, her role in developing The Daily Show, and her often problematic habit of diving into everything headfirst, asking questions later (resulting in multiple rescue-dog adoptions and travel disasters), Lizz Winstead has tapped an outrageous and heartfelt vein of the all-too-human comedy.

Know Jesus
God Created You and Loves You
"In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth." - Genesis 1:1
Jesus said, "I came that they may have life, and that they may have it more abundantly." - John 10:10
Our Sin Separates Us from God
Sin is anything we think, say, or do that goes against God, who is perfect. All people (including me and you) are sinners. We deserve eternal separation from God in Hell because of our sin.
"For all have sinned, and fall short of the glory of God." - Romans 3:23
"The wages of sin is death…" - Romans 6:23a
God Sent Jesus to Save Us
Because God loves us and doesn't want us to be separated from Him, He sent His Son Jesus. Jesus is God. He lived a perfect life and even though He didn't deserve it, He died on the cross to take the punishment for our sin. After lying dead in a tomb for three days, Jesus rose from the dead to prove He is God and that He has power over death.
"For God so loved the world, He gave His only Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish, but have everlasting life." - John 3:16
"But God demonstrates His own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us." - Romans 5:8
Jesus is the Only Way to God
Because of what Jesus did, He enables sinful people like you and me to have a personal relationship with God, and to live with Him in heaven forever.
Jesus said, "I am the Way, the Truth, and the Life. No one comes to the Father except through Me." - John 14:6
You Can Be Forgiven Right Now
God loves you and wants you to have a personal relationship with Him. In order to do that, you must: Admit: to God that you are a sinner, turning away from your sin. Believe: that Jesus is God's Son and accept God's gift of forgiveness from sin. Confess: your faith in Jesus Christ as Savior and Lord and surrender your life to Him.
Jesus said, "Unless you repent (turn away from your sin), you will all likewise perish." - Luke 13:3
"Whoever calls upon the name of the Lord shall be saved." - Acts 2:21
You Can Pray to Receive God's Gift
Dear Lord Jesus, I know that I'm a sinner. I know that because of my sin, I deserve death and Hell. But thank you for Jesus. Thank you for sending Him to die for me. I turn away from my sin, and I give complete control of my life to You. Thank You for saving my soul. Now help me to live for You. In Jesus' name I pray, Amen.
If you have made a decision to follow Jesus, please let us know so we can rejoice with you.

Law against sacrificing children to Moloch, Of children that curse their parents. (1-9) Laws repeated, Holiness enjoined. (10-27)
Verses 1-9 Are we shocked at the unnatural cruelty of the ancient idolaters in sacrificing their children? We may justly be so. But are there not very many parents, who, by bad teaching and wicked examples, and by the mysteries of iniquity which they show their children, devote them to the service of Satan, and forward their everlasting ruin, in a manner even more to be lamented? What an account must such parents render to God, and what a meeting will they have with their children at the day of judgment! On the other hand, let children remember that he who cursed father or mother was surely put to death. This law Christ confirmed. Laws which were made before are repeated, and penalties annexed to them. If men will not avoid evil practices, because the law has made these practices sin, and it is right that we go on that principle, surely they should avoid them when the law has made them death, from a principle of self-preservation. In the midst of these laws comes in a general charge, Sanctify yourselves, and be ye holy. It is the Lord that sanctifies, and his work will be done, though it be difficult. Yet his grace is so far from doing away our endeavours, that it strongly encourages them. Work out your salvation, for it is God that worketh in you.
Verses 10-27 These verses repeat what had been said before, but it was needful there should be line upon line. What praises we owe to God that he has taught the evil of sin, and the sure way of deliverance from it! May we have grace to adorn the doctrine of God our Saviour in all things; may we have no fellowship with unfruitful works of darkness, but reprove them.
Leviticus 20:1-27 . GIVING ONE'S SEED TO MOLECH.
2. Whosoever . . . giveth any of his seed unto
the people of the land shall stone him with stones, &c.--Criminals who were condemned to be stoned were led, with their hands bound, without the gates to a small eminence, where was a large stone placed at the bottom. When they had approached within ten cubits of the spot, they were exhorted to confess, that, by faith and repentance, their souls might be saved. When led forward to within four cubits, they were stripped almost naked, and received some stupefying draught, during which the witnesses prepared, by laying aside their outer garments, to carry into execution the capital sentence which the law bound them to do. The criminal, being placed on the edge of the precipice, was then pushed backwards, so that he fell down the perpendicular height on the stone lying below: if not killed by the fall, the second witness dashed a large stone down upon his breast, and then the "people of the land," who were by-standers, rushed forward, and with stones completed the work of death ( Matthew 21:44 , Acts 7:58 ).
4. If the people of the land do any ways hide their eyes from the man, &c.--that is, connive at their countrymen practising the horrid rites of Molech. Awful was it that any Hebrew parents could so violate their national covenant, and no wonder that God denounced the severest penalties against them and their families.
7-19. Sanctify yourselves therefore, and be ye holy--The minute specification of the incestuous and unnatural crimes here enumerated shows their sad prevalence amongst the idolatrous nations around, and the extreme proneness of the Israelites to follow the customs of their neighbors. It is to be understood, that, whenever mention is made that the offender was "to be put to death" without describing the mode, stoning is meant. The only instance of another form of capital punishment occurs in Leviticus 20:14 , that of being burnt with fire; and yet it is probable that even here death was first inflicted by stoning, and the body of the criminal afterwards consumed by fire ( Joshua 7:15 ).
20. they shall die childless--Either by the judgment of God they shall have no children, or their spurious offspring shall be denied by human authority the ordinary privileges of children in Israel.
24. I . . . have separated you from other people--Their selection from the rest of the nations was for the all-important end of preserving the knowledge and worship of the true God amid the universal apostasy; and as the distinction of meats was one great means of completing that separation, the law about making a difference between clean and unclean beasts is here repeated with emphatic solemnity.

Red Sox manager Terry Francona, appearing in his weekly segment on the Dale & Holley show, said that both J.D. Drew and Kevin Youkilis are questionable for tonight's game against the Indians. During Tuesday's game, Drew (who went 1-for-5 with a double) experienced a recurrence of the tightness in his quadriceps that forced him out of Monday's game. Youkilis, meanwhile, was drilled in the back by a pitch on Monday, the second time in four games that he was hit in that spot.
If Drew is unable to go, Jonathan Van Every would start in right field. Jeff Bailey would play first in place of Youkilis.

David Rosales, a Mexican-American by nationality, was born in Whittier, California, raised in Norwalk, California, and received early religious training as a Roman Catholic. Being involved in drug and alcohol abuse from 1965 to 1970, David considered himself a kind of "fringe member" of what was called, at that time...the "hippie movement". As a product of the so-called "love generation", David searched for meaningful answers, finding none.

This generated a stirring of the Holy Spirit, which spread from the California coast to the Atlantic and beyond. This movement was instrumental in bringing thousands of young people to Jesus Christ during the 60s and 70s in what was known as the Jesus People Movement.

Saber Rattling
Prayers needed. Ex is saber-rattling. He wanted everything, got everything, and it seems, after a couple of years trying to manage a large household, is finding it too difficult. He wants me to take the kids more (I would love to) but won't help with child support (in fact, wants me to pay him - I work part time while he has a thriving career - makes sense). I wonder, if parenting and child support can be adjusted, I might finally be able to leave this partial exile from my children and actually live with them again.
But then, I've already seen a lot of injustice. The pure cost of a post-decree motion could destroy his finances, and what little I have, will be gone. I hate the court system.
I'm trying to engage him in some kind of discussion to address his grievances, but he won't respond to a phone massage or email. The threatened me with court on Friday when I picked up the kids and I had a severe panic attack Friday night and beginning of Saturday - couldn't sleep because I kept dreaming about different scenarios. I think, at this point, I've given up - God will do what He will do.

Crowding the house.
Reviewed by Automobile Magazine on 6/7/2013
Acura has made no changes to the TSX for 2013.
Acura touts its new ILX as a small, affordable entry point to the brand, but wasn't that the point of the TSX? Officials insist the ILX's content, pricing, and fuel-economy figures might woo today's younger buyers, but we still see some reason to perhaps consider the slightly larger, slightly more expensive TSX. Six-cylinder power, for instance, is offered in the TSX but not in the ILX. The TSX is available in sport wagon form, whereas the ILX is offered only as a four-door sedan. Yes, the TSX package is starting to feel a little dated—it's based off the European-market Accord, which debuted in late 2008—but there's still a lot to like. The 3.5-liter V-6 packs tremendous power, but we still prefer the balance and rev-happy nature of the 2.4-liter four-cylinder, even if the smaller engine is a little short on torque. Competitors such as the BMW 3-series and Audi A4 might offer more pizazz when it comes to interior appointments, but the TSX still shines as a driver's car and is far from soft. Body motions are kept in check, and the steering is sharp and well weighted. The TSX is a surprisingly fun car to drive, no matter what engine or body style you prefer.
Front, side, and side curtain air bags; ABS; stability control; and a tire-pressure monitoring system are standard.

There are days when I enjoy cooking a full blown breakfast complete with toast, scrambled eggs and sausage. I was in one of those moods when I spotted Banquet Brown 'N Serve Turkey Sausage Links with a very reasonable price tag of $0.79 per box of 10. Do you know the old saying, you get what you pay for?! Well, this product is the embodiment of that term.
The first thing that I noticed when I opened the box was the diminutive size of the links. Each link is only about 2 inches long. I decided to brown the sausage in a skillet rather than microwave it, and I must say, it did brown pretty well. Unfortunately, the taste and the texture left much to be desired. It appears as if the good folks at Banquet/ Con Agra simply formed their bulk sausage into links, rather than stuff it in a proper casing. This made the texture is downright mealy. I was also expecting more spice - no taste of pepper, sage, fennel or anything else except salt, which is there in abundance. I also noticed that I could actually press grease out of these which surprised me, as poultry sausages are usually quite lean.
One serving of Banquet Brown n Serve Turkey Sausage is 3 links with 110 calories, 7 grams of fat, 2 grams of which is saturated (both are 10% of the recommended daily amount), 13% of the daily limit for cholesterol, 390 milligrams of sodium (16% of the RDA), and 9 grams of protein and 2 grams of total carbohydrates. Each serving is also 3 Weight Watchers Points.
This was supposed to be a Saturday morning indulgence, and the price was right at less than $1.00 per box as previously mentioned (each box has 10 sausage links), but the quality is certainly not worth it. Then again, I guess I got what I paid for.

Reviews for Fruit-Filled French Toast Wraps
Sort By :
"I read this one over and over before I decided to make it...as I didn't have yogurt or fruit on hand. But, I decided it sounded simple, why not? I substituted cottage cheese for the yogurt and used strawberry jam on top of that. No granola, because I forgot it. WOW! VERY good! (And not just because I was starving!) I will make this again for sure... and experiment with different fillings... and I bet it will just get better and better. Thanks!"
"Definitely a winner and can be presented to look like a million dollar dish! Next time I will reduce the fruits to 1/2 cup each rather than 2/3 - my wraps were filled to capacity! Excellent flavor! Can't wait to make them again!"
"Awesome, made it exactly as the recipe stated!"
"This recipe is a misnomer because it's more like a crepe than french toast. Nonetheless, it was very good."
"This is a delicious, healthy way to have French toast. My husband is the breakfast cook in our house and he loves to make this one when we have overnight company."

Since its launch in 1973, the Honda Civic has been one of the most popular compact cars sold in America. Its success can be attributed to its consistently high level of fit and finish and an impressive, long-standing reputation for reliability and low running costs. High fuel economy, environmental awareness and engaging performance have also played a large role in making the Honda Civic a top choice for many Americans.
The latest Honda Civic isn't really a no-brainer choice as its forbearers were, but it still comes recommended thanks to its clever interior, wide range of models and aforementioned strong reputation. For small car shoppers looking for a used vehicle, the Civic is certainly a smart choice, as its long production run and wide range of models make it easy to find what you want.
Although only redesigned a year ago, the Honda Civic was significantly refreshed again this year to address many of the new car's shortcomings and missteps. Chiefly, Honda has improved interior quality and design and added more standard features. It has also spruced up the car's exterior styling and retuned the suspension and steering for better handling. The Civic's crash-worthiness is also improved. The result is a car once again among the class leaders.
The Honda Civic is available as a coupe or sedan. Mainstream trim levels consist of the familiar DX, LX, EX and EX-L, with even the base model including an impressive array of items that includes Bluetooth phone and audio, a rearview camera and Pandora radio functionality. The equipment only goes up from there, eventually arriving at the leather-lined EX-L. There are also the Hybrid sedan, Natural Gas sedan and Si coupe/sedan. A "HF" (high fuel efficiency) version is also available, with gas-saving features such as low-rolling-resistance tires and subtle aerodynamic tweaks.
The powertrain for the DX, LX and EX versions is a 1.8-liter, 140-horsepower inline-4 matched to either a five-speed manual or five-speed automatic. The Hybrid has a more powerful electric motor than before (resulting in a total output of 110 hp) mated to a continuously variable transmission (CVT) and boasting improved fuel mileage ratings (44 mpg in combined driving). The clean-burning Natural Gas model puts out 110 hp, while the Si sports a larger (2.4-liter) engine that provides greater output (201 hp) as well as the promise of a broader power spread. The Si is only available with a six-speed manual transmission.
The Civic's exterior styling is unadventurous but tasteful, boasting more visual pizzazz than this current generation was originally graced with for 2012. The cabin is likewise similar to before, with intuitive controls and a central multifunction display, but there are upgraded materials and switchgear that bring it in line with most competitors.
Overall, this Civic is a pretty capable small car. Its generous selection of engines and configurations should help it appeal to a wide variety of shoppers, while typical small Honda traits like nimble handling and high fuel economy remain intact. However, many other new small cars also offer these traits, and although this Civic is a solid pick for a small coupe or sedan, we suggest shopping other top competing models as well.
The current, ninth-generation Honda Civic was technically introduced for 2012, but a significant overhaul for 2013 means the first model year is substantially different and less desirable. The main problem was essentially that it seemed like barely an upgrade over the car it replaced (or worse), while other cars in the segment were making giant leaps forward. The biggest difference can be seen in the generic styling and subpar cabin quality. In the used market, we would avoid the 2012 Civic.
Prior to the current generation, Honda sold the eighth-generation Civic from 2006 through 2011. It'll be the most common used Civic you'll probably come across, and overall it should be a great pick for a used small car.
For this generation, Honda offered the Civic in coupe and sedan body styles with the usual base DX, well-equipped LX, loaded EX, leather-lined EX-L and sporty Si main trim levels. In addition to the mainstream trims, there were also the Hybrid and GX (natural gas) trim levels.
All trims had a broad range of safety features, such as antilock brakes, front-seat side airbags and full-length side curtain airbags, although stability control could only be had on the EX-L, Hybrid and Si trims. The standard DX trim was pretty bare-bones in terms of premium features, so you'll have to jump up to the higher trims to get amenities such as air-conditioning and full power accessories.
Only minor updates occurred during this car's run. The Si sedan debuted for '07, while the following year saw a limited-edition Mugen Si model and the addition of a leather upholstery option. For '09, the LX-S and DX Value Package trims debuted along with a minor exterior refresh. For the final two years, the Civic continued on essentially unchanged.
All Civics but the Si had a 1.8-liter, 140-hp four-cylinder engine paired with a five-speed manual transmission; a five-speed automatic was optional. The Civic Si, offered in both coupe and sedan body styles, featured a high-revving 2.0-liter, 197-hp four-cylinder engine matched to a close-ratio six-speed manual transmission.
The Civic GX featured a 113-hp 1.8-liter four-cylinder engine that ran on clean-burning compressed natural gas. The Civic Hybrid came with a 1.3-liter four-cylinder gas engine and a 20-hp electric motor. Total output was 110 hp. The Hybrid had an exclusive CVT and earned EPA-estimated fuel economy ratings of 40 mpg city and 45 mpg highway.
The coupe was tuned to feel sportier than the sedan, but both are fun to drive, with quick steering and impressive handling. The 1.8-liter engine won't overwhelm anyone, but it provides enough power for comfortable everyday driving. The Hybrid gets fantastic fuel mileage and the GX is impressively clean, but both suffer from slow acceleration.
In reviews and road tests, our editors found this Honda Civic to be a well-rounded car, and it should be a top pick for anybody shopping in this segment. Thanks to the wide array of configurations, it should also be easy to find a Civic that meets your needs. The only major downsides include elevated road noise and a controversial dash layout.
Previous to the 2006-'11 model was the seventh-generation Honda Civic, which was sold from 2001-'05. There were coupe and sedan body styles as well as a two-door hatchback. Honda offered its typical mainstream trims -- DX, LX and EX -- plus a few specialty trims such as VP, HX, SE and Hybrid. The hatchback came only in the Si trim. Most models had a 1.7-liter engine good for 117 hp or 127 hp (EX). The Civic Hybrid mated an 85-hp 1.3-liter four-cylinder gas engine to a 13-hp electric motor and offered the best fuel economy of the lineup. The Civic Si produced 160 hp from its 2.0-liter engine. At the time, we commented favorably about the car's fuel-efficient engines, roomy interior and top safety scores but were disappointed by the limited availability of antilock brakes.
Sold from 1996-2000, the sixth-generation Civic was in many ways a refinement of the style and technology found on the previous generation. Coupe, sedan and hatchback body styles were available. Sedans were offered in DX, LX and EX trim levels. Engine choices were a 1.6-liter good for 106 hp in the DX and LX or 127 hp in the VTEC-equipped EX. There was also a higher-fuel-economy coupe, the 115-hp HX. Honda didn't release an Si trim until 1999. Based on the coupe body style, the Si was powered by a high-performance 1.6-liter engine tuned to put out 160 hp.
Honda's VTEC technology first appeared in the fifth-generation Civic, which was sold from 1992-'95. The Civic VX featured a fuel-efficient 92-hp 1.5-liter four-cylinder with VTEC-E. More powerful was the 125-hp 1.6-liter four-cylinder VTEC engine found in the Civic Si and EX sedan trims. First sold only in hatchback and sedan body styles, the fifth-gen Honda Civic got two coupe trims in 1993, the DX and EX. The lower CX and DX trims each had a 70-hp 1.5-liter four-cylinder engine.

Visitation with the family was Monday, October 7, 2013, from 6 to 8 p.m. and Tuesday at 10 a.m. prior to the 11 a.m. Celebration of Life services at Ray Funeral Home.
Jane was the beloved first-born to Evelyn Ruth (Ohl) and Curtis Brown Jr. Being the eldest of six, she possessed qualities that served her well in her 82 years: maturity, sound judgment, honesty, generosity, and an unparalleled work ethic. Jane was also the pride and joy of her paternal grandfather, Curtis Brown Sr. "Grandpa" spoiled her with her very own pony and riding gear, probably beginning her lifelong love affair with animals.
Always the entrepreneur, at age 10 she made ham sandwiches and sold them at lunch time to the cotton gin workers. She was also the stunning "Jackie Kennedy look-alike" teller at the Cleveland State Bank of Main Street in her early years.
Jane met the love of her life, Paul "Mr. Paul" Clements over a lunch break with a mutual friend on September 2, 1952, at Bob's Drive-in. Their first date was the very next day. The couple soon officially became "Jane and Paul" at the First Baptist Church in Cleveland on April 14, 1953.
The couple opened their first business, Top Dollar Store, on Cotton Row in the early '60s. As their business grew, so did the need for more space, prompting a move to Paul's Mart on Highway 61. They worked as partners and soul mates, sharing a strong work ethic, building a successful business, and turned customers into friends. Known to many as "Miss Jane" or "Ms. Paul," she was most proud to be known simply as "friend."
Jane had a beautiful penmanship, loved to paint and was artistic as a young girl, traveling by train weekly to Greenville with her little sister, Ann, to take painting lessons. She was also an animal lover, and had a special place in her heart for strays that just seemed to show up-and stay. Her life was well shared with many, many dogs and cats. She leaves behind two terrier sisters she lovingly referred to as "the girls."
Caring for her parents and husband during their lengthy illnesses was important to her, and her take charge attitude served her well. She loved her family, extended family, and those who walked through her doors and became "Family." Jane was also a mentor to many young people, teaching them the business, but, even more importantly, numerous life lessons. She valued loyalty, honesty, and the rewards of hard work. She enjoyed eating out, rarely said no to ice cream or chocolate, and loved to shop for herself as well as for others.
"Miss Jane" was an icon at her store, but she was a treasured human being to many.
She leaves behind siblings Curtis Brown III of Little Rock, Ark.; Evelyn Ann Brown Webber of Overland Park, Kan.; John Wm. Brown (Jan), James O. Brown, and Thomas R. Brown (Donna), all of Cleveland; nieces Laurie Brown Smith of Little Rock , Ark.; Melissa Webber Edman of Overland Park, Kan.; Shannon Brown Sigafoos of New Orleans, La.; and Elizabeth "Ellie" Brown of Memphis, Tenn.; nephews Curtis Brown IV of Seattle, Wash.; William Brown Webber of Kansas City, Kan.; Mike Webber of Austin, Texas; Chris Brown of Oxford; Jonathan Brown and Judson Brown of Cleveland; and Rob Brown of Cleveland.
Two very special friends who touched her life are the late Emma "Mimi" Champion and Becky Sheedy (Johnny), both of Cleveland. Mimi introduced her to opera, eating out and all things sparkly and feminine. Becky came to work for Paul's Mart 39 years ago and became part of her family, sharing life and work together. The family wishes to thank her for her many kindnesses through the years. Jane, also, held dear her other two long-time employees, Ruby Mullins and Julie Mei.
Pallbearers were Chris Brown, Jonathan Brown, Judson Brown, Rob Brown, Spencer Edman, and John Brown. Honorary pallbearer was Johnny Sheedy.
In lieu of flowers, contributions may be made to Pawprints Rescue of Cleveland, the Cleveland-Bolivar County Animal Shelter, or St. Jude Children's Research Hospital.

A family tradition
Tal BA '96 and Jenny (Hatchel) BA '93 Kirkwood are young alumni with a long history connected to Anderson University. They both grew up in homes where the name "AU" sparked a certain pride and nostalgia among the many family members who had attended.
"Almost everyone in our families has gone to Anderson," Jenny says. "For my family, it has become kind of a tradition."
Coming from a Church of God background, both Jenny's parents and several members of her extended family are alumni. Their AU pride runs so deep that Jenny can even recall her mother singing her to sleep with the Raven fight song.
Their strong family ties to the university made selecting a college easy for Tal and Jenny, who both already felt at home on the AU campus. "It always just seemed like a perfect fit to me," Jenny says.
It was an easy transition for Jenny, who was welcomed by the university's friendly atmosphere. Particularly, the fellowship and close relationships she developed as a charter member of the Xenos social club made her AU experience special.
"I have to say that my fondest memories were always with my friends," she says. "I was surrounded by people who had similar backgrounds and were brought up a lot like I was. It made for some incredible bonds."
Two years younger than Jenny, Tal pursued his own friendships and interests while at AU. He was president of the Sachem social club and a lineman for the Raven football team that won the ICAC conference.
Though they were both marketing majors and had many friends in common, Tal and Jenny didn't meet and start dating until after Jenny had already graduated. A short while later, he received his marketing degree from AU, and they began their lives together while also working to launch their careers.
Today, the Kirkwoods live in Fishers with their three children — 6-year-old twins Jack and Maggie, and a 3-year-old son, Charlie. Jenny stays at home with them full time, opting to quit her job at Schering Plough Pharmaceuticals in favor of full-time parenting. Tal is a pharmaceutical representative for Alcon Labs, where he was recently promoted as the company's district manager for Indianapolis.
Though they are a single-income family and extremely busy parents, Tal and Jenny remain loyal to the AU tradition they've come to cherish and do what they can to keep the tradition alive. They contributed to the university's legacy locker project, a fundraiser to put new wooden lockers in the athletic locker room as a way of honoring alumni athletes and improving facilities for current students. They also give to the university through the Church at the Crossing, their home church.
"If our donations give to someone as great of an experience as we had, then that makes it worth it," Jenny says. "Anderson is a great university and it holds such a special place in our hearts."
It's their way of honoring the university and the Church of God, both of which have been integral to their lives. It's also their way of passing the AU tradition on to their children. "I think it teaches our kids to give back and to support institutions that share the same values in life," Jenny says.

While fishing, siblings Katara and Sokka discover Aang, a young boy frozen in an iceberg. After freeing him and his flying bison named Appa, they learn his identity as an airbender, long thought extinct, and bring him back to their village in the Southern Water Tribe. After witnessing the beam of light that shot through the sky after the two broke through the ice, Zuko, exiled prince of the Fire Nation tasked with finding the long lost Avatar to restore his honor, becomes intent on capturing him. While playing, Aang and Katara mistakenly trigger a booby trap in an ancient Fire Nation ship, revealing Aang's whereabouts to the nearby Zuko.
Long ago, the legendary Avatar kept the world and its four nations at peace with each other. However, the Avatar disappeared one hundred years ago and has not been seen since. During that time, the tyrannical Fire Nation used the opportunity to wage war with the other three nations, seeking to conquer them. One hundred years passed and people began to lose hope that the Avatar would ever return and bring peace back to the world. Even the Southern Water Tribe, located in the distant South Pole sea, has been affected by the Fire Nation's war. The men of the tribe all sailed abroad to fight, leaving behind the women and children. Sokka and his younger sister Katara are the oldest of the tribe's children in the South Pole.
Two siblings, Katara and Sokka, are out fishing in a small canoe. Katara, a waterbender, practices her bending as Sokka prepares to spear a fish. Katara bends the water around a fish to lift it above the canoe; Sokka penetrates the water bubble with the back of his spear, causing the fish to fall back into the water and soak him. He grows angry and scolds Katara, saying that if he had "weird powers" he would keep his "weirdness" to himself. When the sea currents suddenly pick up speed, Sokka tries to steer the boat to avoid colliding with the small chunks of floating ice, while Katara gives directions. However, the boat is crushed between two ice floes, leaving Sokka and Katara stranded in the middle of the sea on a floating chunk of ice. Sokka blames Katara for the mess, which causes her to lose her temper and start yelling at him.
As Katara rages, she ends up violently waterbending without realizing it; soon, she cracks and shatters an ice formation, revealing a giant glowing orb of iceberg which rises to the surface of the ocean. Seeing the form of a human inside the ice, Katara thinks the person needs help and begins chopping away at the iceberg with Sokka's club despite his warning not to, as they do not know who the "thing" is. The ice breaks and releases a bright column of light into the sky.
Prince Zuko, a Fire Nation teenager who has been hunting the Avatar for two years, sees the bright light from his ship. His uncle, Iroh, who has accompanied the young prince on his journey, dismisses the event as completely natural. Zuko orders his crew to head toward the light, insisting that the light was emitted due to the Avatar.
After Katara breaks through the ice, she finds the person is a young boy with strange arrow-like marks on his head and hands. Sokka is skeptical and points his spear at the boy, but the boy simply falls down into Katara's arms. She lays him down and tries to help him. Sokka pokes the boy in the head with the blunt side of his spear, still skeptical, but Katara shoos him away.
The mysterious boy drowsily opens his eyes to see Katara staring at him with deep blue eyes. He quickly becomes fully dazzled, cheerfully asking Katara if she wants to go penguin sledding with him, to which she confusedly agrees. The boy introduces himself as Aang before sneezing, sending himself high into the air and drifting back down unharmed. Katara realizes that he must be an airbender.
Aang climbs back into the ice to find Appa, a large flying bison. It takes a moment for Aang to wake him up. Appa sneezes on Sokka and covers him with bison snot, to which Sokka reacts with disgust. The warrior does not believe that the bison can actually fly and walks away, only to realize that he is stranded in the middle of the sea and cannot go back home. Aang offers to fly them back to the Southern Water Tribe where they live. Katara happily agrees and Sokka refuses at first, but agrees later as he has no choice. The group gets on Appa's saddle, with Sokka still refusing to believe that Appa can fly. Aang cries, "Yip-Yip!", causing Appa to leap into the air, but he comes crashing right back down into the water and starts swimming. Aang figures Appa is still too tired to fly just yet. He turns around and stares at Katara with a huge smile on his face, causing her to ask, "Why are you smiling at me like that?" He replies, "Oh, I was smiling?" Sokka lifts his head back, groaning, while Katara, at first smiling at Aang's response, frowns back at him. After some time, Katara tells Aang that the last Avatar was supposed to be an Air Nomad and asks if Aang knew him. Aang awkwardly states that he knew people that knew the Avatar, but did not know the actual Avatar himself.
Later, Aang has a dream about a storm that he and Appa had encountered while they were near the South Pole. He re-lives the dream how both of them were brought under the waves by the intense wind and rain, and how Aang started glowing and created the orb of ice that surrounded him. He is jolted awake, finding himself awakened by Katara in a tent in the Southern Water Tribe. He quickly gets dressed with Katara watching. She notices the arrow markings running along his body, and after he is completely dressed, she pulls him into the village to introduce him to the entire village, which has a small population.
Everyone expresses surprise at seeing an airbender, as no one has seen an Air Nomad in a hundred years, thinking they must have become extinct. Sokka wonders why Aang always carries a staff around, realizing it is not sharp enough to stab anybody. Aang responds by showing the village how he uses airbending to fly with it. Aang ends up accidentally crashing into Sokka's poorly-constructed watch tower.
Kanna, also known as Gran Gran, the grandmother of Katara and Sokka, wonders if Aang may be a threat to the tribe. Katara wants him to stay, believing he could teach the village so many good things as well as waterbending to her. They happen to glance over at Aang, who is showing off to the village toddlers how he can stick his tongue to his staff.
On the Fire Nation ship, Prince Zuko is practicing his firebending techniques with Uncle Iroh as his mentor. Zuko becomes impatient and asks for his uncle to teach him advanced moves, but Iroh demands that he first master the basics. However, after Zuko's angry persistence, he finally consents.
Sokka begins to teach the young boys of the tribe, lecturing them about how they are the "warriors" of this tribe, until one of them says innocently he needs to pee. Sokka gets mad at Aang for distracting his "warriors" with fun and games and throws a fit because they should be focused on the ongoing war. When Aang sees an otter penguin, he gets excited and tries to capture it, but the creature proves to be too fast and slippery. Katara approaches and agrees to teach him the "fine art" of catching penguins in exchange for lessons in waterbending. However, Aang points out that he knows nothing about waterbending, being an airbender, and tells her that she could learn from the other people in the tribe. Katara responds that she is the only waterbender in the whole South Pole.
Aang says that the Northern Water Tribe should have waterbenders to teach Katara and offers to fly her to the North Pole. Katara is not sure whether leaving her tribe is a good idea. Aang suggests to her that she could think about it later, and in the meantime she could teach him to catch penguins. Thus, Katara begins her "lessons" to Aang.
Aang and Katara go penguin sledding and have fun until they accidentally slide near an old abandoned shipwreck. Aang wants to go in and explore it, but Katara is wary. She has been told never to go onto the Fire Navy ship, but Aang convinces her to do so. As they explore the ship, Aang wonders why a Fire Nation ship is so far from its home. Katara realizes Aang has no knowledge of the Hundred Year War at all and deduces that he was trapped in the iceberg for one hundred years. They accidentally set off a booby trap in the ship, sending off a flare into the sky. Aang saves Katara by carrying her and airbending out of the ship. However, Prince Zuko has seen the flare and Aang escaping from the ship and believes he has found the long lost Avatar – at last.

Production notes
- Main article: Transcript:The Boy in the Iceberg
Series continuity
- In "The Storm", Aang's flashback shows that the iceberg is under the sea. Due to Katara's violent waterbending, however, she unconsciously cracked the ice formation causing it to rise to the surface of the ocean.
- The abandoned Fire Navy ship Aang and Katara explore is the same one Hama and the other waterbenders were shown uprooting decades before in a flashback in the episode "The Puppetmaster".
- The subtitle of the last episode in the series, "Avatar Aang", and this episode's title both refer to Aang himself. They also highlight how he has changed. In the beginning, he is a young Avatar who has not mastered the elements. By the end, he is a fully realized Avatar.
Character revelations
- Katara reveals that she is the only waterbender in the South Pole.
- During Aang's dream, it is revealed how he came to be frozen in the iceberg.
- When Katara attempts to catch a fish using waterbending, she takes off her glove. However, in a later shot, when she is seen waterbending, her glove is back on again.
- After Sokka and Katara's boat gets crushed and they land on a slab of ice, they are surrounded by other slabs of ice floating on the water, with seemingly no icebergs around them. In the next aerial shot, however, the water around them does not have any slabs of ice but one line of them to the right and a few icebergs around them.
- During the scene where Zuko is trying to get Iroh to teach him an advanced set of firebending moves, Zuko's belt is momentarily silver instead of the usual gold.
- When Sokka and Katara first see Aang in the iceberg, there is nothing in the water between them, but in the next frame there are many floating icebergs in the water.
- When Sokka and Katara see the iceberg floating up, it appears to be merely an icy sphere with no ground surrounding it. Katara, however, seems like she can stand on the iceberg with ease and the iceberg does not seem to move with the added weight, even though in the previous shots the ice looked relatively light since it bobbed in the water.
- After Appa sneezes on Sokka, the latter's entire right side is shown covered in bison snot. A few seconds later he is clean again, as if the incident never occurred.
- When Aang is letting the kids use Appa's tail as a slide, the first scene shows his tail propped up on Sokka's spear. The next scene shows Appa a few feet away, with his tail on the ground. In the scene after that, Appa's tail returns to its original position atop the spear.
- When Aang and Katara stand next to the abandoned ship, they look up at the tattered flag still waving atop the mast. In that shot, they are about five feet away from the shadow of the boat. In the next shot, however, they are standing right next to the shadow.
- When Aang crashes into the watch tower at the Southern Water Tribe, he is covered in snow, but when Katara pulls him up, he is lying on top of the snow.
- When Katara and Aang are walking toward Appa, they are about a few feet away from him. However, after they walk for about another few yards, they are still in the same place.
- The Netflix description for the episode is incorrect; it states "Waterbenders Sokka and Katara make a startling discovery while fishing: a boy frozen in a iceberg, perfectly preserved and, amazingly, alive". However, only Katara is a waterbender.
- This is the only episode of Avatar: The Last Airbender to feature a different and extended opening sequence.
- Though this is the first official episode of the series, the unaired pilot was created beforehand, but never aired on television.
- Sokka said he might have "Midnight Sun Madness" because during summertime in the South Pole, which is the wintertime in the Northern Hemisphere, the sun remains in the sky into the night, due to the Southern Hemisphere facing the sun.
- This is one of only two episodes that shows "To be continued" before the ending credits. The other is "The Boiling Rock, Part 1".
- According to Avatar: The Last Airbender—The Art of the Animated Series, the creators of the show like to think that Aang and Appa were "floating in a ball of energy" instead of being frozen solid.[1]

I just walked thru the door from a week with dive paradise....and it was AWESOME. Best diving I've ever done. The staff were spectacular. I would also recommend doing a night dive right there off the shore behind the shop. We did it almost everyday. Very good for beginning night divers. Our dive master was Hymie ... he led an awesome dive. I'm looking forward to going back some day.

My husband and I were there in August with a group from Deep South Scuba, Jackson, MS. It was my first experience in drift diving, and it was fantastic! Santos and Jaime are excellent divemasters and William was so helpful! They went out of their way to make sure we had an enjoyable time. Jaime also took several of us on a night dive and made sure that we had an experience that was "first rate". Thanks for the experience; all others will fall short!
S. & K. Jones ~ Glen Allan, MS
We just came back from a week of diving at Cozumel with Dive Paradise. It was absolutely fantastic. We had a large group and the three dive masters were excellent. I would like to thank Santos, Julio, and Jesus for the best vacation I have had in many years. The diving in Cosumel is supurb, but these gentlemen made the experience that much more enjoyable. Thanks again and we'll see you soon!
J. King ~ Eaton Rapids, MI
We used Dive Paradise as dive operators and could not have made a better choice. Once again, friendly people with great diving skills. We would dive with them again. Gear was in good shape and the tanks always full. Loved the idea of divers choice dive spots.
J. & R. Fithian ~ San Diego, CA
My husband, my son and his two boys spent 5 days at Hotel Cozumel and Resort.. He did his first scuba dive at Dive Paradise Club across from the hotel. The man who taught him was named Jordan. He was very thorough.
The ocean was beautiful, the people friendly. It was a very relaxing vacation. Before we went I found your site, and spent several weeks before we went reading your newsletter. It was very helpful and gave us a wonderful view of what was going on. We were there at the end of May 2006 and I still am reading your news. I intend to continue to do so as we are planning to come back someday. Thanks for all the insight. I hope they keep that one beach open for the local people and fisherman's boats.. Even though we were tourists, it doesn't seem right to take everything away from those who live there.
