According to the document, after the hearing the court will begin its deliberations, which will be held in private. Its ruling in the case will be made at a later stage.
In addition, the ECHR noted that it "will be open to Tymoshenko making a fresh request under Rule 39 if the circumstances require."
As reported, Tymoshenko lodged an application with the court on August 10, 2011. She alleges that her detention was politically motivated, that there has been no judicial review of the lawfulness of her detention in Kyiv's pre-trial detention center, and that her detention conditions are inadequate, with no medical care provided for her numerous health problems.
Tymoshenko relies principally on Article 3 (prohibition of degrading treatment or punishment), Article 5 (right to liberty and security), Article 8 (right to private life) and Article 18 (limitation on use of restrictions on rights) of the European Convention on Human Rights.
On December 14, 2011, the court decided to give priority to the case in view of the serious and sensitive nature of the allegations raised.
On March 15, 2012, the court requested that the Ukrainian government ensure that Tymoshenko received suitable medical treatment in an appropriate institutionalized setting.

Grotto Beginnings
Now donchy'all laugh. The grotto looks pretty sad right now, but "I have a dream". Started this last spring, then it got too hot, then I lost interest blah, blah, blah. Almost tore it down cuz I also lost the vision. Finished cretin' it yesterday and got this much mosaicing done today. I'm still building it as I go. At this point I think there'll be a tall cross on the right - also made from the wire mesh - and on the left and maybe both sides - some round pedestals - different heights. Outside of the main piece seen here - large half bowls/vases w/be attached to the sides for planting Impatiens and ferns, and the background w/be filled in w/white rocks. I tried the white rocks around the edge for building enough area to support white shells around the face. Enough yaking - here goes for laughs.
very interesting that you should be working on such a project, because I've been all about the movie, "Song Of Bernadette" all week..
I have no idea why she came to my mind but I've been on YouTube, to watch all of the little segments of the movie and there are more than 17 I think...
I play the song over and over...
it's just something that has been very close to me all week and your grotto gives the same feelings of strength and belief.
you know, your work is beyond art..you have a gift of creating pieces that are deep into faith and inner soul.
I can picture what you have in mind...
now mind you, I'm not expecting to have the local priest submit to have a mission built, next to your grotto but you still gotta know that it will bring peace to anyone standing near it.
I got all consumed by it, when I did a google image search for the Lady Of Guadalupe and from there, searched for Lourdes and onto the movie about Bernadette.
there's also an image of Bernadette, where she still is in the casket, in full view, still as if she is asleep.
she will live eternal, in death and her body will be as she was alive.
Made some progress today - backbreaking. Not easy working on this sucker. Got the whole inside done. My signature is all over it - CROOKED!!! 'course, everything I DO is crooked, but hey, girlies - I'm OLD.
Today's progress
Thanks, y'all. Yeah, it's crooked, but hey - so am I. Just couldn't get it covered today. Would someone remind me next time I begin a project not to start something where I have to get on hands/knees to work on it?? GEESH - WHAT WAS I THINKING??? Hope to finish covering tomorrow, and begin rockin' the other objects that w/accompany this lonely piece.
More progress
Oh, Slow, I love your vision. I believe every garden should have some special place one can go to meditate for a minute or an hour. Knowing your work, this will be one special place indeed. I can hardly wait to see. I already love the inside..all twinkly stars.... and the outside will be beautiful with cascading flowers... Wonderful....as always........
Thanks, DAISY: I don't put any kind of spiritual significance on this piece. You know I like religious art, so dare I call this an attempt at making art? It's just something different to mosaic. I was inspired by Riana to make a grotto. I don't have her strength, to work w/the wire mesh, so it's a meager attempt. She tells me she's finished her 96 ft. bench. She wrapped the mesh around several metal chairs. It lights up at night w/multiple planters etc. She's the strongest little lady I've ever seen. I've identified the other pieces that w/accompany this piece. I'll be rockin' them on my workshop table, believe me. Getting down and dirty on this piece has been a challenge.
Thanks, KLINGER - Soooooo nice to see you back. Have missed you TONS. Now put a fire under Janeybo to come back. Here's the progress today. Hope to grout the blue tile/mirror part tomorrow and be done w/the main feature. Gonna begin on the second act immediately. BTW - takes a picture for me to see the flaws - w/fill in that leg on the right w/a rock or two.
Finished Gluing
Simply stunning grotto!! I love love love it. Yes, do not put yourself down this will be awesome can't wait to see your progress.
I have to see a pix too, because when you've been looking at something a long time, it does HELp to take a step back and see it through different eyes, and the camera is perfect for that.
So inspirational !!
You Lil Heifer!!! Ya'll put me to S.H.A.M.E!!! I haven't even looked in my messy Art Room in months!!! I'm still saving up for my Throne Chair. Sounds like I got a LOT of work to get such a big project done!!! Plus I got a real collection of birdhouses going on that I wanna mosaic and have copper roofs on. I better start saving some of my energy for me and not all for work!!!
To answer a couple questions - yes, DAISEY - I made the frame from rebar and wire mesh last summer. SEA - no - no more plans except for the few pieces that I'll put nearby such as I'm posting today. On top of the two wire mesh round pedestals and the wooden spindal thingy w/go those old amber light fixture globes from the 50s. I have four, but w/use three. They'll hold votives inside as well as on the inside of the main piece - w/maybe an angel to accompany. I've had the wrought iron cross in the yard for several years, and never found a place it was comfortable until now. Saves me from building the one I'd planned w/the mesh. I cut the mirror for it. Still have to paint gold the ends of the cross bar and top. Only got to work half a day today. Thank y'all for the compliments.
Grotto parts
Gorgeous work, as always! I am so amazed by the diversity and imagination in your work. Keep pluggin', I can't wait to see it completed!
BTW, I have been meaning to ask you- you have a plastic mannequin form hanging in one of your pics. It has a hook on top? Do you plan to mosaic it, or use it for another project? I have one just like it, but didn't think that I could use it for mosaics. I might just decoupage it and hang it in my little craft cubby.
Cheers-keep at it!
Thanks, PGH: I've had that mannequin for ages, it seems. Think I ordered it off Ebay a couple yrs. ago with the intention of pouring it w/thinset - w/wire mesh inside for strength - and putting it outside in the garden. W/need to make a plynth for it first, and figure out what kind of pedestal to put it on, and WHERE TO PUT IT. Decisions, decisions. You may have just inspired me to make that my project after I finish the grotto area. BTW, folks, I KNOW this grotto thingy isn't very grotto-like, it's just some fantasies I am putting together. Not much rhyme nor reason for anything I do except "playing w/my toys". Oh, and CALAM - nice to see you back on the forum. GET BUSY!!! Have missed your work. See you soon in PV.
Okay Betty the more I look at this the more I know I'm gonna do a grotto too.I just love the look of it. My yard is very much a wip as we only moved in in June. I think a grotto would be perfect in one of my new beds. I removed everything from this bed and relocated most of it. Now it's naked and I was waiting for some inspiration to get started on making it nice for spring again. Grotto is going to be the centrepiece I think,yahoo. You got me inspired for another project.
Well, KLINGER - so nice to see you're inspired by my meager attempt to make a grotto. W/you use the Riana method or your wonderful concrete techniques? The more I work on this, the more I think I might continue to add pieces when I'm low on inspiration for other things. DAISY: This is pretty fast work considering no grouting w/be done except for the stars/mirror sections. Hardest part is washing the rocks to rid them of the marble dust. All you do is mix mortar, stick and squish - pretty fast. Rain is coming so I'm shutting down earlier than w/like - too tired anyway to continue. BTW - I never could hold a camera straight. It's not THAT crooked.
Today's progress
Betty it's looking better all the time. I will do the rianna method. I have mesh just waiting. Once I get my tender plants in the green house and yard tidied a bit thats next on my list. I'm also going to be doing a kitchen backsplash for my new place this winter.
Hey, BAMA: Great to see you again - miss you LOTS. That's what Riana said when she was sitting at the patio table looking out in that corner (remember when we shoved the mosaicing aside and ate the stew in the midst of the mess?) Thank y'all. Here's the lates. Told y'all I make it up as I go. Bought a whole bunch of these terra cotta tiles for 25 cents a piece at an old store closing downtown, so figured they'd make great planters around the "courtyard". White Impatiens next spring????? Gotta go back to Lowes the third time for more white rocks to finish covering the little courtyard area. I KNOW what FLAG is gonna tell me - mosaic the scalloped borders - NOT. I'm thinking also of a path leading to the main - too small - path. The whole yard is covered in roots, and it's hard to dig, but I might can do it a little at a time. Whaday'all think? The last pedestal is too wet to move, so tomorrow I'll put that in place behind the two on the right, lay in the white rocks, and w/have to put the grouting of the blue tile/mirror sections on hold until next week. DD is coming next Thursday for the weekend, and I need to RAKE out the house.
Something went wrong on that posting the site for Photobuckets - trying again.
More progress
OH MY GOSH! Just let me be busy for a few days and look what you get into! This is great, I am so proud of you and what you have accomplished. This will be the beam in your backyard....what a neat piece of work and so ingenius of you to use all your stored goodies. I am going to have to come check this out in person....can't wait to get a real live view. I think this is GREAT!
Shuttin' the shop for today - totally wiped out from digging the path. Still have to grout the inside of the main piece, get votives for it and candles for the amber globes, but got tons of other stuff to do b/f I can finish the project. Y'all have been great - watching me work - makes me smile and encouraged. Since this is the focal point of the very small back yard, do y'all think I should cover the gravel in the path w/white rock, or leave natural to go w/the courtyard edgers? Advise me please. FLAG is coming tomorrow to have a look-see.
Good Grief! I had so many corrections the link didn't get in there.
Today's progress
I think white, but I will decide for sure tomorrow. Great job m'lady, you have been busy. I didn't know you were so good with grottos...you are giving me ideas of my water grotto...love it.
Well FLAG - I've been urging you to start it. I know you're waiting for someone to dig, but you could start the structure NOW. See you in a little while. LOVE: I can see the corner from where I sit on my patio, and when my DD comes next weekend, it, as well as the mirror on the wall above the toidy planter are going to be lighted up all three nights she is here. Thanks.
AWESOME!!! I LOVE Matilda too, she's looking Spectacular!!! That is gonna look sooo GOOD all lit up in the evening!!! I Gotta light my Flower Globe up more often...thinking of placing it where I can see it more too!!! I got up at 5am(as usual..YUK!) and sat here and went thru all 69pgs of Flag's album...WOW, what inspiration!!! Now I think I'll do the same with yours Slow!!! Somethings gotta motivate me!!! H E L P !!!!
Slow, wow, you really moved on this project! It's wonderful! I know Flag thought the white would look best on the path, but I'd vote for natural so the grotto stands out on its own. We'll see what you two decide though. Some times you gotta just trust your instincts...and you've both got a TON of THOSE. Have fun together this weekend!
The dream continues. Wanted to use the rest of the terra cotta tiles. Haven't buried them in the ground yet, but I'm thinking of using the little tulip-shaped light fixture globes used in fans that the thrift stores carry to put on top of the tiles to hold votives - thereby having a lighted path at night. Between each one, I'll continue planting the Monkey Grass I started w/yesterday. Also thinking I'll put the white rocks only on the tops of the bricks. What say y'all? CALAM - definitely, I plan to go to Bucerias. Was hoping you'd agree. Thanks, y'all.
New Idea
This grotto is OUT OF SIGHT! I saw this yesterday and you can not believe how it lights up Slow's backyard! She was supposed to be cleaning house yesterday but I see she added the terracotta rounds after I left her house. You guys would not believe how this became the highlight of her yard. She has done a spectular job on this. I think her idea of doing the tops of the brick outlining the path is great. It certainly becomes the focal point she was going for. The red mirror on the wall above the toidy is really great in person and so is the red primitive cross. She really goes to town when she gets started.
I offered to help her organize her workshop, but that's not how she likes it....so....I came home with lot's of inspiration and went back to work on the studio windows.
GREAT JOB Slow...I love it.
impressive and loving every step of the way on this..
with all the seriousness of the true beauty, now I have an observation to ask a question about..
going to your photo album, on the page that shows the progress of the grotto, are the two pictures that show the toidy, with the plant in it...
the first picture shows the plant sorta droopy and in the second one, it shows the plant standing at attention..
uh...what went into the toidy, to make it perk up???
Becky, as always, with a mind on 'tilt'
I need a new back. Thanks, FLAG for that wonderful critique. SEA: I was wondering when someone w/comment on the drooping Elephant Ear. I took the droopy picture (to show the votive shelf that didn't show in the first picture after I looked at it) about a couple hrs. later. I KNEW I should have cut off the tall ones, like when you plant annuals, "pinch they little heads off", but I was too tired to bother. I've since changed my mind on the plant and put in a lime green Hosta. Won't be able to finish the planting of the Monkey Grass between the lights and grouting the back of the main piece until next week. House cleaning has been put off far too long. Salv. Army wasn't open today, and I couldn't wait 'till 1:00 for Good Will to open, so I went to Lowes and bought the fixture globes and put red votive holders inside to give a warm glow. I sat outside last night for cocktails w/all the candles lighted - what a wonderful scene. The path is also necessary to help me get to/from to light/snuff the candles - yard is very dark. Gotta give it another try tonight. Wish y'all could see it lighted - pictures don't work. Thanks for your encouragement. Too tired to read the rest of the forum.
Almost finished
Thanks, FLAG. Was too tired to go back outside last evening. Hate to leave it for another week but must. To be continued. I'll be on a search for a pedestal sink for a water feature, over which I'll put another mirror. Might just hang a chandelier in there somewhere. This w/be on the wall beside the toidy planter. You inspire me waaaaaaay more than you know.
Looks awesome Slow!!! And I bet it will look lovely when Klinger and I see it in person too...all lit up!! We'll talk more about that when we see you in PV!!heh heh! I can't believe how much stuff I am scoring by working at my fav thrift store!!! I've just hit the mother lode and will have to post/brag some pics!ha!
It's so fun to see the grotto as it really sits in the yard. It's wonderful, Slow. What an unusally spectacular project to conceive and construct. I know we'll be seeing others inspired by yours. How I wish I could be there to celebrate the first lighting with you. Great project!
Finally grouted the main piece and planted between the lights. Phew! Many thanks to all of you for encouraging, complimentary words.
Grotto Finished
Thanks, y'all. CALAM, I thought about putting the candles in the "courtyard" tiles, but they'll have white Impatiens next spring. There are candles in the amber globes. It's really beautiful at night. Toby likes it too; it's become his favorite "business" spot - bratty dawg!
SLow!!! You are so inspirationally amazing. This is just so wonderful, I kinda see it like a winter wonderland in the winter, and a peaceful destination in the summer. AWESOME!!
You go girl, i don't think you EVER sleep, didn't you just have your DD over for the weekend, and here you go getting right back to where you left off!!
So funny about Toby.. You should take it as a compliment that he loves your new space LOL
You go girl!! Keep us all inspired

Gateway M460
Editors' note: In early September 2005, Gateway changed the names of many of its laptops. Read our explanation to learn how to make sense of the new names and where to find CNET's reviews of Gateway laptops. (10/6/05)
With a nondescript, rounded, silver-and-black case, the mainstream Gateway M460 blends right in with the Dell Latitudes, the ThinkPads, and the Toshiba Satellites that make up much of the corporate IT landscape these days. Though its components aren't the fastest available, the M460 offers decent performance and great battery life. Measuring 1.4 inches thick, 14 inches wide, and 10.3 inches deep, the M460 is about an inch wider than other laptops with 15-inch displays, including the ThinkPad R51 and the Toshiba Satellite A65-S126 . At 6.8 pounds, the M460 is also a couple ounces heavier than the R51; with its 13-ounce AC adapter, it has a tolerable 7.3-pound travel weight.
Gateway offers a number of iterations of the M460, and we discuss the details of each in our series review. We tested the M460S, priced at $1,470 (as of June 2005), which features a tall, 15-inch XGA screen. Unfortunately, our test system had annoying hot spots at the two lower corners of the screen, and it lacked the contrast and the brightness of the latest shiny displays, such as the HP Compaq nx9600. Wide as it is, the M460S has plenty of room for a comfortable keyboard, though it flexes too much and can feel wobbly. The 3.4-inch (diagonal) touch pad is a gem, with a nicely textured surface and horizontal and vertical scroll zones.
The laptop has good connectivity features for the office and the road, with a modem, Gigabit Ethernet, and an Intel 802.11b/g data radio, though there's no Bluetooth option. In addition to a flash card reader that supports Secure Digital, MultiMediaCard, and Memory Stick formats, the M460S has four USB 2.0 ports, as well as outlets for audio, S-Video, an external monitor, and a Type II PC Card slot. Gateway offers a $139 port replicator that adds four more USB 2.0 as well as FireWire, parallel, and serial ports. Unfortunately, there's no fingerprint reader, leaving the M460 somewhat vulnerable, with neither a biometric security device nor smart-card capabilities.
The M460S does have an 8X multiformat DVD burner that sits in a modular bay; depending on your needs, you can swap it out for an additional battery or hard drive. IT support staff will appreciate that the modular drives are screwed into place, making them a little more difficult to remove.
Inside the case is a current-generation Centrino platform that uses a 1.8GHz Pentium M processor along with Intel's 915 graphics engine and 512MB of fast, 533MHz RAM; the system can hold up to 2GB of RAM chips, but most users will find 512MB sufficient. The 4,200rpm 40GB hard drive is small and slow, but Gateway offers a 60GB 5,400rpm drive for only $30 more. That said, our test unit's components were enough to earn the M460S a respectable score on CNET Labs' benchmark tests, just ahead of the MPC TransPort T2300, which also has a Pentium M 750 1.8GHz processor but faster, 533MHz RAM. Both machines, however, lagged significantly behind the ThinkPad R52, even though it has a slightly slower, 1.73GHz processor.
The M460S proves that it's sometimes worthwhile to pay a little extra for a larger battery. The M460S, equipped with a $40, 12-cell battery pack, excelled in our battery-drain tests, lasting a phenomenal 6 hours, 58 minutes of runtime between charges. That's more than twice as long as the MPC TransPort T2300 and 2 hours longer than the Portable One MX , both of which are more expensive than the Gateway, even when you factor in the cost of the battery. Truly power-hungry users can add Gateway's $140 modular battery for about 10 hours on a charge--more than enough for workaholics or avid movie watchers on an international flight.

New Richmond librarians to retire after 60 years of service
When one chapter ends, another begins - that's how Bev Jacobs is viewing her retirement from New Richmond's Friday Memorial Library.
Jacobs, along with three other long-time librarians, will depart from the library at the end of the week taking about 60 years of service and memories with them.
"The sun came out and we just couldn't go to work anymore," Sandy Venhor told one library patron with a laugh.

Please help with color of tall cabinets in two-tone design
We are planning a two tone design with walnut lowers in a natural stain and off white maple painted upper cabinets.
We are trying to make a decision on the color of the tall cabinets including the refrigerator top cabinet + panels and the pantry cabinet next to it. I have read some of the posts on this topic and curious if anyone has a strong opinion either way given our setup on this wall. We do not have any other tall cabinets in the design elsewhere.
DH prefers the white; I prefer the walnut.
(note the pantry cabinet is not turned the correct way in these pictures; also the fridge will be stainless counter depth FD model, not what is in the image)
This is kind of a weird picture (stickies to tell my husband what to put where), but anyway, I debated and went with white. I don't think there's a wrong answer, but I liked having the upper above the fridge stay white, then it only seemed natural to have that run that all the way down on the pantry. I also liked having the fridge cover panel (box) be white instead of black because it seems a lot lighter.
I also don't think there's a wrong answer, but personally I prefer the dark color. We have white uppers and darker (wood-look melamine) lowers, and opted to panel the fridge to match the lowers.
I think it's really personal opinion. When I saw the KD renditions, I just knew I wanted the stained uppers/pantry - it just felt right to me. But I also have a stained hood on the opposite wall, so I felt they related to each other.
Can you show a picture from the wet bar side maybe so we can see the wall in relation to the rest of the space?
Does one 'feel' more right to you?
I know you've seen mine numerous times, but here it is again for reference.
It's a little hard to tell from this angle b/c the NKBA virtual planner doesn't let me add end panels (or I haven't figured that out yet), so the side of the pantry isn't showing up the right color. But here are a few other pics just to see how it flows with the rest of the room.
It is obviously a personal preference. In looking at each of the photos, they all looked nice - but gave different feelings/vibe. Which vibe do you want to convey?
grounded? packaged/wrapped up/boundary?
light? airy? expansive?
no wrong answer. whichever meets your goal.
(We will have a similar situation in our kitchen as well... I like the "grounded, anchored" look with the tall cabs being all dark.)
Thank you ck_squared. It was one year ago that I was choosing all of my materials and finishes, and it has been eight months since completion. I am still in the honeymoon phase with my new kitchen! Head over heels!
Another theory of mine re: two-toned cabinetry, is that all of the white ones should float away visually. No fridge is going to do that. ;)
Thanks for all the feedback! It's helpful to be reminded of what you all have done and your perspectives! You all have such beautiful spaces and it's true that they both look nice. When I read ck_squared's comment about balance, it seemed more clear to me that in our particular space we need the darker / walnut to break up the wall of white uppers (not just in the fridge run, but then down the wall from that is the bar area with white uppers). I think the room might start feeling lopsided without the grounding of those cabinets with the darker / walnut color.
Decision made! Onto the next issueâ¦starting a different thread for that. Aye!

After a reasonably long, HARD sleep at Hotel Reikartz, we do our show in Dnipropetrovsk; the name is a contraction of Dnieper as in the river it's situated on and Petrovsky, as in Grigory Petrovsky the Communist leader of Ukraine. The Opera Theater with 1000 seats is the smallest we're playing in on this tour, but everything works out splendidly, with all the same gear we had on the earlier gig and an almost sold out house. Afterwards we are taken to "Ykra", spelled with a reverse N and a P for an R! This language is a trip….
It turns out Karaoke is really big in this country. As we walk in the singing is in full swing and luckily they have a private room set up for us! The menu is extensive, the beer selection excellent (Leffe, Hoegaarden!) and the food quite good. The whole place has a decidedly mafioso feel to it but it's quite comfortable. We're gonna spend an extra day here and will return for dinner tomorrow.
The next day, after a real night's rest, it's time for some sightseeing with the guys. The weather has turned quite nice and we walk to the river, through an indoor mall peddling everything from scarves to military style rifles. What blows my mind is how expensive mobile phones are here; your typical Samsung is actually more than in the US or Western Europe. In relation to the cheap food, I cannot for the life of me imagine why anyone would blow this much dough on such a status symbol, but it does prove how gullible folks are all over the world I guess. Remember, our 4 star hotel here costs $25 a night, so a Galaxy S5 is as much as 30 nights. WTF……. I'm looking for a sleeping bag, but there's not a single place that sells anything like it.
Two more days without a gig, but on the first it's driving time! To Odessa we go, the pearl on the Black Sea. It's a 500KM trip, but ends up taking about 9 hours or so, again on some of the worst roads I've ever seen. The wild thing is, every couple of miles or so there's a perfectly modern gas station! We still haven't gotten any blankets or other sleeping materials but at least this is a daytime drive.
As we pull into Odessa, the vibe is definitely different. The architecture is decidedly more Western European and the people more fashionable. You can tell this is quite the vacation spot in the summer and that there is more money here. All the big names in fashion are represented! I had already looked the Hotel Mozart we're staying in ($23 a night BTW!) and it's a stone's throw away from one of the top 5 opera houses in the world, right in the heart of it all.
We're spending a bit more time here, the next day we have off completely, then we leave after the show on the third day. We are told we can eat at the hotel restaurant three times a day for free…..boy we are spoiled! This is another high class joint, let me tell you. Stacked french fries and everything….. the service is excellent too.
The next day I decide it's time to find a sleeping bag. Our tour manager has not done anything to alleviate the situation and we have some brutal, middle-of-the-night drives coming up with shows the same night, so I want to get some rest on these trips. I'm told about Sport Market, and it seems to be about a 30 minute walk away. Success! They don't take my credit card, but a quick ATM visit later, I am the proud owner of a +15 degree Celsius modern, hollow fiber sleeping bag! Amazingly, no one else has followed my lead, they all prefer to bitch about not being able to sleep I guess. Tomorrow after the show we're off to Moldova….crossing the border at 3AM should be fun!
To be continued…..

towel toppers
I forgot I had the pattern to make a fast towel topper from a square pot holder and towel. I paid $1.50 for both and turned the holder to the back to embroider it. They don't embroidery well!!! But is sure is a really cheap change for the kitchen. And I washed an identical towel, so this is not washable LOL!!!
I think this would look great with a small quilted pot holder and a more expensive towel. The towel is basted in half and stitched to the middle of the holder. Sew on a button and the loop on the pot holder (to hang it up) is the button fastner. I thought of Sharon's NY towel project when I made this LOL!!! See the streaks from the glass cleaner, that stuff does not work for me and I was too lazy to macrofiber towel it, maybe tommorrow, maybe not!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Are you looking for towels already?!!! Even I haven't started looking. lololol This sure is a fast way to make those towels, Rosa. I hope to be able to make up a few. I've got my towels held together by clothespins! And, you mean glass doors don't have streaks built in??????
Now isn't that just the cutest thing! I gotta get an embroidery machine, no doubt about it.
I didn't know you could remove streaks from glass. What a strange idea.
Rosa! I haven't hardly worked on my table runners today cause I was playing around with towels and potholders!!!!! Gotta get me some more! lol
Well, since I don't have an embroidery machine, mine are just plain, the way I bought them. But, now that I've done a couple and sort of know what I'm doing, I might play around with some fancy stitches on the potholder before attaching it to the towel. Can't beat the price! $1.50 plus the button from the big old button can!
Boy, I really like that. I have been given a couple of towels I keep hanging from my fridge door, and they are way past due for the rag bag, and I never even considered making my own. That's a great idea. I have an old lotto block I pieced I didn't know what to do with, so made into a potholder. I can use that! Thanks.
I had to look a couple of times to "get" how the towel was attached....usually there is only one towel half...I really like the idea of having all the towel, that way, either way/side will work. I don't have an embroidery machine so I was thinking an easy/quick applique or folded fabric flowers or yo yo flowers. Your project turned out really cute. It would be something fast for a quick gift. tish
I wish I could find the potholders with the loop on the corner. It gives more room for the towel and also for a little decoration. I've only looked at 3 stores so need to look further.
Tish, I like your idea of a quick applique. Could fuse something on then satin-stitch around it. I think I'll look into that today.
I found some orange pot holders that I stained with coffee so they are not as bright. I think I'll applique some pumpkins for a fall effect.
Sharon I had to cut the loop off and sew it to the corner.It's on the back so it doesn't show at all.
Yo yo flowers would be adorable, there are so many possibilities!!
Rosa, You are just so innovative! I'll try the cut and corner sew the loop!
I have a sick mind. I have this nice birdhouse towel with some cute little birdies on it. I satin stitched a cute little cat onto the potholder looking at the cute little birdies. I actually had my brother in mind for that one! The potholder is black and the background the cat is on is black so it looks pretty cool. I'll try and get a picture tomorrow.
They are sooooooo easy!!! Fold the towel in half to find the center. Lay towel right side up and place pot holder right side down on the towel. Gather the towel to fit the pot holder and I usually hand baste large stitches to hold in place before I sew it on the machine. I use large stitches because it is bulky. use the button to keep it on the stove door. THAT IS IT!!!!!!!!!
Hey something I can actually understand! I was wondering WHY you needed to have to hook thing on the side but THAT is how it stays on the button which is attached to the other side where the hanger goes!!!
I am glad I am not sleepy or I wouldn't have gotten this LOL....
I so like this idea and I think when I get me a machine I will do some for gifts!
Sharon I so love the cat idea, please post a pic, I can't wait to see it lol.
Hey y'all, I'm new to this side :)

Can bathtub plumbing be freestanding?
laurarexMay 19, 2011
I'm going to have my bathtub hauled out into the next room so that I can clean out mold underneath.
There's a shower head and an acrylic shower surround. I've taken it all off except for the panel where the water supply pipes come out. There are hot and cold knobs, an outlet for the bathtub and a handle to switch the water to the shower head.
This acrylic panel will have to come off so I can check for mold behind it.
It would be useful if I can have this plumbing still working while the acrylic panel is off and the bathtub is out. The water comes through 1/2" copper pipes.
So can these copper water supply pipes temporarily be freestanding?

Help with placing Advantium!!!
OK, I'm buying cabinets today from Lowe's and I just discovered that the Advantium (27" width) needs 21.5" depth. The only place we can fit this thing (which I really want) is in an upper cabinet, and the line runs 57". We were getting a 27" microwave cabinet for the Advantium and a 30" cabinet (both 12" depth). This isn't going to work, and the KD didn't notice! If I put an oven cabinet there with 2 15" cabinets on either side, will this look ok? Can someone give me advice quickly? The sale ends today. Oh, and I really don't want to give up the counter space...
Pat, we just installed the Advantium 120 in a microwave cabinet that sits catty-corner on our counter. I think the contractor mumbled something about having to cut out the back of the cabinet so the Advantium's bumped out back would fit...but here it is.
Still trying to figure the damn thing out - except for the microwave function, which is a no brainer. Hopefully, this coming week I will be able to experiment with the speedcook function or the just plain convection.

Meir Panim delivers warmth, special care to families in need.
Chosen People Ministries, a Hebrew Christian missionary group, has spent $2.1 million to acquire a building and nearly $1 million more on renovations to construct an 11,000 square-foot missionary center in the heart of Flatbush. It will house a "synagogue," sefer Torah, classrooms, and a dining hall – all with the intention of attracting the general Orthodox community and particularly unaffiliated local Jews and adults at risk from frum homes who have abandoned Yiddishkeit or are on the fringe.
Vulnerable Jews will be invited for deceptive Shabbos and Yom Tov meals and services. Will they join? Who would turn down free meals and a warm, friendly, and welcoming atmosphere?
The missionary center makes it clear in its promotional material that Jews in Brooklyn are their prime targets, because there is little or no kiruv going on in Brooklyn.
Brooklyn is the only metropolis in North America without an all-encompassing kiruv center. Denver, Colorado, for instance, has a tiny fraction of Jews compared with Brooklyn – and yet Denver has three kiruv centers.
Brooklyn Jewish Xperience (BJX) is at the forefront of outreach, catering to Brooklyn's non-observant and less observant Jews. Almost 70 percent of Brooklyn's Jews are non-observant proportionately there are more non-observant Jews in Brooklyn than anywhere else in America.
Every day BJX works around the clock, engaged in inreach and outreach, teaching Torah and Judaism to those born in secular families as well as young adults who were raised in religious homes but grew disenchanted or felt disenfranchised. Brooklyn Jewish Xperience's innovative classes and programs and its warm, dynamic leadership has inspired countless to learn more about their heritage, prevented intermarriage and ensured Jewish continuity.
BJX is changing the fabric of Brooklyn. Roger bought tzitzis; Jessica affixed a mezuzah to her door. Sarah is going to study in Neve; Sammy is joining our chavrusah program. Paul, Erica, Danny, Boris, Angela, Mark, Debbie and numerous others enrolled in BJX's "Laws and Philosophy of Shabbat" series. And that's not all – students from frum families who were on the brink of giving up Yiddishkeit are now well-adjusted frum adults.
Brooklyn Jewish Xperience needs the public's help in thwarting the plans of the missionary center about to open in Flatbush. Instead of the fighting the center by picketing and protesting, BJX will foil its efforts by establishing Brooklyn's first all-encompassing kiruv center.
The BJX Kiruv Center will host BJX's kiruv shul, daily classes, learning programs, and events for the unaffiliated and for frum people desperately in need of kiruv and chizuk. The center will be located at 2915 Avenue K. Construction began last week. Now BJX needs support to help build the kiruv center and put the missionaries to shame.
The Chofetz Chaim declared that every Jew has a Torah obligation to reach out to his or her non-observant brethren. Today, with the threat from local Jewish missionaries, the fire of assimilation burning out of control, and the rampant off-the-derech phenomenon, every Jew must heed his call and respond.
BJX is a 501c3 organization, under the leadership of Rav Yitzchok Fingerer. Donations are tax-deductible and can be made securely online at thinkandcare.org/make-donation.html; by sending checks to Brooklyn Jewish Experience, 998 East 21st Street, Brooklyn, NY 11210; or by calling 646-397-1544 with a pledge.

While we are all accustomed to the occasional recipe substitutions – swapping milk for creamer, applesauce for oil – gluten-free cooking is a whole different ballgame.
Until the year I decided to put a stop to all my tremors. I realized that if I wanted my family to experience Pesach and its preparations as uplifting and fulfilling, I'd have to relax and loosen up.
David looked up. "Hatzlacha, Dina," he smiled. "I hope everything goes well."
In 1756, when the ominous threat of Islamic terror against Jews reached Tunis as well, Friha became one of its tragic victims.
Are we allowed to lie for shalom bayis? It would seem so, but what might be a healthy guideline for when it's okay and when it's not?
The connection between what I experienced as a high school teenager and the adult I am today did not come easy to me.
Isn't therapy about being yourself; aren't there different ways for people to communicate with each other?
Jack was awarded a blue and gold first-place trophy, appropriately topped off with a golden bee.
Participating in ManiCures during the school day may feel like a break from learning, but the intended message to the students was loud and clear. Learning and chesed come in all forms, and can be fun.
Building campaign chairman Jack Gluck has led the effort over many years.
When using an extension cord always make sure to use the correct rated extension cord.
There was no question that when Mrs. Cohen entered the room to meet the teacher she was hostile from the outset.
Szold was among the founders and leaders (she served on its executive committee) of Ichud ("Unity"), a political group that campaigned against the creation of an independent, sovereign Jewish state in Eretz Yisrael.
My friend is a strong and capable Jewish woman, but she acted with a passivity that seemed out of character.
Chosen People Ministries, a Hebrew Christian missionary group, has spent $2.1 million to acquire a building and nearly $1 million more on renovations to construct an 11,000 square-foot missionary center in the heart of Flatbush. It will house a "synagogue," sefer Torah, classrooms, and a dining hall – all with the intention of attracting the general Orthodox community and particularly unaffiliated local Jews and adults at risk from frum homes who have abandoned Yiddishkeit or are on the fringe.
In our quest to be spiritual entities it is incumbent on us to learn Judaism's definition of a spiritual person.
Soap opera-like debacles have stunned, stupefied, and dismayed our community. We have witnessed a prime minister, governors, and men of stature plummet to the depths of scandal and ignominy. Especially disconcerting and the epitome of paradox is when revered men, charged to exemplify God's Word, purportedly disgrace His Word instead. Why do great men fall?
For thousands of years of Jewish history there wasn't a unique nomenclature classifying Torah-deviant Jews. Denominations like Conservative, Reform and Orthodox were non-existent. One was either more observant, less observant, or, in highly atypical cases, nonobservant.
I was apprised of the fact that a renowned rav and posek in Flatbush dedicated his Shabbos morning drasha to the plight of a young lady who was recently dismissed from her Brooklyn Bais Yaakov. It seems she vexed the administration because she asked her teacher incisive questions about the nature of Gan Eden. Thankfully, due to the intervention of this prominent rav, she was reinstated to her school.
Eliot Spitzer personified success. He had it all: health, family, wealth, career, fame – everything a person can ever dream of and hope for. Then it all unraveled. A man at the zenith of life plummeted to the nadir of existence.

text: Programs "The Science of Smart" from APM on Friday's Access Utah By Tom Williams • Mar 20, 2015 American Radio Works Today on Access Utah, an American Radio Works documentary explores the best ways to learn, developed and observed by researchers. "The Science of Smart," featuring Utah Senator Howard Stevenson's statewide language immersion initiative, deciphers education and its impact on our next generation's learning. Researchers have long been searching for better ways to learn. In recent decades, experts working in cognitive science, psychology, and neuroscience have opened new windows into how the brain works, and how we can learn to learn better. The Zesty Garden - March 19 By Bryan Earl • Mar 19, 2015 www.vegetablegardener.com How do insects eventually overcome the chemicals meant to kill them? Is it too late for a dormant oil spray on my fruit trees? USU Extension Entomologist Diane Alston answers your questions. In addition, journalist Nancy Williams has one last reading about Topaz, the Japanese Internment Camp that used to be in Utah's west desert. ARTsySTEM, Integrating Art With Science On Access Utah By Tom Williams • Mar 19, 2015 USU ARTsySTEM "The Arts and STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, & Math) fields share a necessity for undertaking imaginative inquiry of what we perceive as truth and beauty...So many attempts to integrate art and science simply involve creating art at the end of a scientific breakthrough. With ARTsySTEM, we're merging the disciplines at the very inception of the process." That's USU Assistant Professor of Art Mark Lee Koven, who along with USU Ecology Center Director Nancy Huntly, is spearheading the ARTsySTEM project at Utah State University. Listen Listening... / 48:23 Race And Justice On Wednesday's Access Utah By Tom Williams • Mar 18, 2015 rooflines.org Last July 4 on an outing to Long Island, when shots were fired in the vicinity, ProPublica reporter Nikole Hannah-Jones says that "between the four adults [in the group] we hold six degrees. Three of us are journalists. And not one of us ... thought to call the police. We had not even considered it. We also are all black. And without realizing it, in that moment, each of us had made a set of calculations, an instantaneous weighing of the pros and cons." In "A Letter From Black America," (recently published by ProPublica and Politico Magazine) Hannah-Jones says "to a very real extent, you have grown up in a different country than I have." Listen Listening... / 53:58 Closed Causeway Causes Curious Changes to Great Salt Lake By Ross Chambless • Mar 17, 2015 Ross Chambless The Great Salt Lake is, right now, actually two lakes split in half by a long railroad causeway. A couple years ago the crumbling culverts that allowed flow between the north and south arms of the lake were closed for safety. Since then, scientists say, curious things are happening to the lake, especially as it approaches historic low levels. Listen Listening... / 3:49 "The West Without Water" On Tuesday's Access Utah By Tom Williams • Mar 17, 2015 B. Lynn Ingram is Professor of Earth and Planetary Science and Geography at the University of California, Berkeley and co-author of "The West Without Water: What Past Floods, Droughts, and other Climatic Clues Tell Us About Tomorrow." She'll join us for Tuesday's AU to answer such questions as: What is "normal" climate in the West and how do we know what's normal? What do we learn from megafloods and megadroughts during the past 2,000 years, including most disastrous flood in the history of California and the West, which occurred in 1861-62? Why is climate so variable in the West? What does the past tell us about tomorrow? Listen Listening... / 53:57 "The Brain That Changes Itself" On Monday's Access Utah By Tom Williams • Mar 16, 2015 normandoige.com "The brain can change itself. It is a plastic, living organ that can actually change its own structure and function, even into old age. Arguably the most important breakthrough in neuroscience since scientists first sketched out the brain's basic anatomy, this revolutionary discovery, called neuroplasticity, promises to overthrow the centuries-old notion that the brain is fixed and unchanging." So says psychiatrist and researcher Norman Doidge, MD. In his book "The Brain That Changes Itself" Dr. Doidge examines the cases of a woman born with half a brain that rewired itself to work as a whole, a woman labeled retarded who cured her deficits with brain exercises and now cures those of others, blind people learning to see, learning disorders cured, IQs raised, aging brains rejuvenated, painful phantom limbs erased, stroke patients recovering their faculties, children with cerebral palsy learning to move more gracefully, entrenched depression and anxiety disappearing, and lifelong character traits altered. Listen Listening... / 64:26 2015 Legislature Ends On Friday's Access Utah By Tom Williams • Mar 13, 2015 utahstatetrooper.com The 2015 session of the Utah Legislature reached the end of its constitutionally-mandated 45 days Thursday night. This year's highlights included debates over Medicaid expansion, prison relocation, pay raises for teachers and state employees, the gas tax, anti-discrimination protections for the LGBT community, religious freedom guarantees, the right to die, Utah's caucus and convention system, medical marijuana, cock fighting and seat belts, among other issues. On Friday's AU we'll recap the 2015 legislative session with Deseret News commentators Frank Pignanelli & LaVarr Webb. We'll feature comments from Governor Gary Herbert. And we'll talk with Jason Stevenson, Education & Communications Director with the Utah Health Policy Project and Dan Bammes, Communications Director with the Utah Foundation.

Today is the first Tasty Trek with Darla and Michelle. Link to Edible Flowers in Utah What are the 50 best short hikes in Utah's National Parks? Listen to author Greg Witt. Do you need solace or comfort...or just need to learn how to enjoy life? It's Petals and Prose with Helen Cannon. Listen Listening... / 52:25 Listen to the Full Program Death With Dignity On Wednesday's Access Utah By Tom Williams • Mar 11, 2015 pewforum.org HB 391, the "Utah Death with Dignity Act," would allow physicians to prescribe lethal doses of medication to terminally ill persons, under certain circumstances. Rep. Rebecca Chavez-Houck, D-Salt Lake City says she sponsored the bill in response to the recent plight of Brittany Maynard, a California woman with a terminal brain tumor who moved to Oregon (which has had such a law in place since 1994) so she could die on her own terms. A poll by www.utahpolicy.com shows that 63% of Utahns support such legislation. On Wednesday's AU we'll ask you what you think. Listen Listening... / 72:51 How to Speak Cat and Dog on Tuesday's Access Utah By Tom Williams • Mar 10, 2015 We love our dogs and cats, but their behavior can be baffling. (Maybe they have the same thoughts about us!) On Tuesday's AU, our guest is veterinarian Gary Weitzman, President and CEO of the San Diego Humane Society and SPCA, and author of "How to Speak Cat: A Guide to Decoding Cat Language" (published by National Geographic.). Dr. Weitzman is also author of "How to Speak Dog," and "Everything Dogs." We'll answer your dog and cat questions, and talk about the San Diego Humane Society's current effort called "Getting to Zero:" a comprehensive plan to save the life of every healthy and treatable animal in San Diego Animal Welfare Coalition shelters. Listen Listening... / 54:34 Faith, Climate and Science on Monday's Access Utah By Tom Williams • Mar 10, 2015 Climate change has been a hard sell among some communities of faith. Katharine Hayhoe is a Climate Scientist and an Evangelical Christian. She has spent years trying to convince other Christians that climate change is real. She told NPR that "the people we trust, the people we respect, the people whose values we share, in the conservative community, in the Christian community, those people are telling us, many of them, that this isn't a real problem - that it's a hoax. Even worse, that you can't be a Christian and think that climate change is real. You can't be a conservative and agree with the science." Hayhoe says that caring about climate change is one of the most Christian things you can do. Listen Listening... / 53:56 Share Your Spiral Jetty Experience By Jennifer Pemberton • Mar 6, 2015 Jennifer Pemberton <<Share Your Spiral Jetty Story>> Robert Smithson's famous work of land art -- Spiral Jetty -- was completed in 1970. A few short years later, the artwork was inundated with a rising lake level of the Great Salt Lake and stayed mostly submerged for 30 years. As Utah heads into a drought, the lake level has dropped to a historically low level, exposing the famous Jetty. Have you been there recently? Have you been out to the Great Salt Lake only to find that the Jetty was underwater? What else did you see when you were out there? We're collecting your Spiral Jetty stories for our next episode of The Source. Share your stories with us online or come talk to host Jennifer Pemberton in person at our Spiral Jetty story booth after the Science Unwrapped presentation "Salty Metaphors" on March 20 at Utah State University. <<Submit Your Spiral Jetty Story>> The Zesty Garden - March 5 By Bryan Earl • Mar 5, 2015 USU Extension Vegetable Specialist Dan Drost talks about early season vegetable planting times along with seed viability and germination. Then beekeeper and journalist Nancy Williams reads an essay on Petals and Prose about the importance of seeds in our lives. Listen Listening... / 52:37 Listen to the Full Program Sustainability And Security On Thursday's Access Utah By Tom Williams • Mar 5, 2015 The Pentagon has said that climate change poses immediate risks to our national security. U.S. intelligence and security leaders predict that resource scarcity will be our next big threat. The World Wildlife Fund's new initiative "In Pursuit of Prosperity" seeks to make sustainability a core component of U.S. foreign policy. WWF says that scarcities in one country can spill over into relations with neighboring countries as governments try to access natural resources-such as timber, water and energy-through legal and illegal means. Tensions among neighbors, ranging from the US.-Mexico border to India and Pakistan, are on the rise. California, America's fruit and food basket, is currently experiencing one of the most severe droughts in over a century. The result is higher food prices and declining water stocks. Listen Listening... / 53:57 Revisiting Our Conversation With Nick Rosen On Wendesday's Access Utah By Tom Williams • Mar 4, 2015 Penguin Books The grid is everywhere, sending power to the light switch on the wall and water to the faucet in the kitchen. But is it essential? Must we depend on it and the corporate and government infrastructure behind it? Wednesday's AU we'll revisit our conversation, from August, with Nick Rosen, who has traveled the United States, spending time with all kinds of individuals and families striving to live their lives free from dependence on municipal power and amenities, and free from dependence on the government and its far-reaching tentacles. Rosen's book "Off the Grid: Inside the Movement for More Space, Less Government, and True Independence in Modern America" profiles millionaires and foreclosure victims, survivalists and environmentalists, retirees and marijuana growers, and ordinary families--all chasing their off-grid dreams. Listen Listening... / 53:33 Return Of The Firing Squad on Tuesday's Access Utah By Tom Williams • Mar 3, 2015 The firing squad, discontinued in Utah in 2004, would return as a method of execution under a bill (HB11) which has passed Utah's House of Representatives. The sponsor, Rep. Paul Ray R-Clearfield, says (according to the Associated Press) that "a team of trained marksmen is faster and more humane than the drawn-out deaths that have occurred in botched lethal injections." NPR reports that manufacturers of the drugs used in lethal injection executions, under increasing pressure from critics of the practice, have ceased making the toxic chemicals. James Clark writing on Amnesty International USA's "Human Rights Now" blog says this bill makes Utah appear willing to do just about anything to continue executions. Listen Listening... / 53:13 Human Wildlife Conflicts on Monday's Access Utah By Tom Williams • Mar 2, 2015 As wildlife populations increase, so does the potential for human-wildlife conflicts, which can be seen in in economic losses, regulatory conflicts, and sometimes, physical encounters. Terry Messmer, Director of the Berryman Institute at USU, says that wildlife managers may need to change their traditional emphasis from sustaining or increasing wildlife populations to mitigating conflicts. On Monday's AU we'll talk about potential effects of listing the Sage-grouse as an endangered species and of delisting the wolf. We'll also consider the phenomenon of urban deer and the management of wild horses and burros. We'll ask you what you think about these issues and we'd also like to know if you've had an encounter with, say, a mountain lion or a bear. Joining the discussion today is Terry Messmer and Michael Wolfe, Emeritus professor of Wildlife Ecology and Management at Utah State University. Listen Listening... / 53:53 When Trees Talk Researchers Listen By Jennifer Pemberton • Feb 27, 2015 Jennifer Pemberton Inside every tree there's enough information to keep researchers around the West busy for their entire careers. This week on the program, a look at dendroclimatology -- using tree rings to re-construct what the climate was like in Utah hundreds of years ago. Because looking at the state's climate past is the best way to understand the future. Jennifer Pemberton talks to plant and climate scientists about how they interpret the thousands of tiny rings that make up a tree's life history into a full picture of the cycles of wet and dry Utah has seen over the past thousand years. Listen Listening... / 53:58 Listen to the full program above The Zesty Garden - February 26 By Bryan Earl • Feb 26, 2015 www.diy-enthusiasts.com Learn how to do your own fruit tree grafting with USU Extension Fruit Specialist Brent Black. Turn an old pallet into a vertical garden with garden ambassador Luan Akin from Tagawa Gardens, then listen to the last installment about the Topaz Japanese-American internment camp from Petals and Prose contributor Helen Cannon. Listen Listening... / 52:26 Listen to the Full Program Shifting Utah's Criminal Justice System on Thursday's Access Utah By Tom Williams • Feb 26, 2015 Francisco Kjolseth | The Salt Lake Tribune State Department of Corrections Executive Director Rollin Cook said Utah's "tough on crime approach" has been costly and has led to mass incarceration, overcrowded prisons and unacceptable recidivism rates. Rep. Eric Hutchings, R-Kearns, said his criminal justice reform bill (HB 348) will result in an "epic shift" in how the state treats offenders. The Salt Lake Tribune reports that under HB 348, drug offenses would carry a smaller penalty, probation officers could reward as well as punish, and whenever possible, the mentally ill and drug addicted would be shuttled into treatment rather than to jail. Prosecutors worry that reducing charges and sentences would be counterproductive. Listen Listening... / 53:38 An "Evening In Brazil" On Wednesday's Access Utah By Tom Williams • Feb 25, 2015 Utah State University Every year about this time "Evening in Brazil" presents concerts in Salt Lake City and Logan; this year's concerts are on Thursday and Friday. And each year, we gather members of the musical group in UPR's studio C to enjoy some great Bossa Nova and Samba on Access Utah. Linda Ferreira Linford, Christopher Neale, Mike Christiansen & Eric Nelson will join us for Wednesday's AU and we hope you will too, beginning at 9:00 a.m. Listen Listening... / 60:16 Revisiting "The Roosevelts" on Tuesday's Access Utah By Tom Williams • Feb 24, 2015 This is an Encore Presentation of Access Utah,which originally aired in September 2014. Pulitzer-prize-winning historian Doris Kearns Goodwin returns to AU on Friday. She is author of several books including "The Bully Pulpit: Theodore Roosevelt, William Howard Taft, and the Golden Age of Journalism," "No Ordinary Time: Franklin and Eleanor Roosevelt - The Home Front in World War II" and "Team of Rivals: The Political Genius of Abraham Lincoln." And she's one of the experts featured in Ken Burns' new documentary "The Roosevelts: An Intimate History," which airs on KUED over seven nights beginning on Sunday. Listen Listening... / 54:57 Utah Health Care on Monday's Access Utah By Tom Williams • Feb 23, 2015 Ryan Padriac The Deseret News reports that opposing bills on Medicaid expansion have passed a state Senate committee. Sen. Allen Christensen says that his SB 153 would cover Utahns who earn up to 100% of the federal poverty level and who are medically frail. He says his plan would leave money available for other needy groups. Sen. Brian Shiozawa' SB 164 would implement many elements of Governor Herbert's Healthy Utah plan, which would help provide coverage for those who earn up to 138% of the federal poverty level. Sen. Shiozawa says that Sen. Christensen's plan would not return enough Utah tax dollars from the federal government to the state.
