BJP's prime ministerial candidate Narendra Modi today accused the UPA government of ignoring Jharkhand, asking why it has remained poor and had no economic growth despite being endowed with rich natural resources.
Modi also slammed the Congress, saying it has become a "liability and burden" for the country and is in a crisis because it is cut off from the people.
"Why is Jharkhand is still poor and poverty is growing even if it has rich resources?" Modi asked and then gave the answer himself in a veiled attack on Congress: "I would say the party in whose hands the reins were in since Independence should reply."
The Gujarat Chief Minister was addressing the Vijay Sankalp rally amid tight security in Jharkand capital which saw a huge gathering. The stage had a backdrop of Parliament.
It was Modi's first public rally after a Gujarat Metropolitan Court dismissed Zakia Jafri's protest petition against Special Investigation Team's clean chit to him in the 2002 riots.
Modi said if a survey report was submitted to the leading economists of the world, they would certainly say that the state would have been among the most prosperous regions in the world, if the resources were properly utilised.
He said that the people of the region had been demanding a separate state for a long time to determine their own destiny, but the "sultanate" in Delhi did not hear and rejected the demand.
"It was former prime minister A B Vajpayee who understood the aspirations and dreams of the people of the region and created the state along with Uttarakhand and Chhattisgarh.
"The new state was created accepting that it will be 'progressive', but why has it not happened in 13 years?" Modi said, comparing the state with Chhattisgarh which, he said, had "sped away on the path of development".
He attributed Chhattisgarh's "success" to the people's desire for development and for the BJP.
Modi compared Jharkand to an adolescent and said it is entering a crucial period of 13 to 18 years in which the state needs a leader that will understand its need.
"Jharkhand will need Delhi. But can you trust those in Delhi who neglected the Jharkhand demand for 50 years?" he asked.
Wondering how coal-rich Jharkhand should fall behind in electricity generation, he asked why is the state in darkness.
Modi also urged the voters of Jharkhand to return all 14 seats in the state to the BJP in 2014 Lok Sabha Elections so that the state could hope for a brighter future.

REGION: Summer brings lift for the Sprinter, officials say
NORTH COUNTY -- With schools out and families on vacation, the Sprinter light-rail line saw a June jump in ridership, tallying an average of 7,659 riders per day and boosting business near Oceanside beaches where the train lets out, officials said this week.
"It's sort of a beach pattern right now," said Tom Lichterman, operations director for the North County Transit District, at a recent meeting.
Eying a graph of Sprinter ridership, Lichterman pointed to a spike in the total number of passengers at about 4 p.m. He said that the surge of traffic on the line is probably from beach travelers, who trickle out to the coast in the morning, then return to eastern cities in the late afternoon.
Regional planning officials have said they expect the Sprinter to carry nearly 12,000 riders daily by the end of its first year of operation.
The latest Sprinter counts are about 600 riders higher than the last count, taken in May, Lichterman said.
The news did not surprise Sharon Olloqui, owner of the Ensemble clothing store in the swank new Oceanside Terraces building on Cleveland Street in downtown Oceanside.
The building sits right next to the Oceanside Transit Center, and Olloqui said she has seen increasing numbers of tourists and day trippers walking down the sidewalk in front of her shop, headed to and from the waterfront.
The shopkeeper said that when she rings up sales she asks customers where their from so she can she track that information. She said she is seeing shoppers from inland cites, in addition to the usual vacationers visiting from other states.
"The trains … really help, both the Sprinter and the Coaster," she said. "We're seeing them from Escondido, San Marcos -- they're coming from inland and they just want to cool off."
The $480 million Sprinter light-rail line opened in March after years of controversy, cost increases and construction setbacks. The 22-mile route stretches from Escondido to Oceanside, with 15 stops along the way.
Critics alleged all along that the train would be a boondoggle and that North County residents would shun the rail service. But in its first few months of operation, transit officials have said they're pleased with number of folks who are giving the train a try.
On Friday morning, the Spurgeon family from San Marcos made its first outing on the Sprinter, heading for the beach in Oceanside, said mom Christy.
"In the summer, we go to the beach every Friday, and we thought we would come out on the Sprinter this time," she said, as the family headed away from the train's platform toward the shore.
Spurgeon said the family usually picks a beach in Carlsbad, or Encinitas for the Friday trip. She added that it was the simple fact that the Sprinter's westernmost terminus is on Cleveland Street in Oceanside that brought the family to town.
"We would come back again, but not every Friday," Spurgeon said.
There are signs that Oceanside's entire beachfront is getting a Sprinter bump this summer.

Maybe you've seen the man with the black Cadillac. The one with the silvery white hair, who pulls to the side of the road at a moment's notice when he spots what he's looking for.
There's his wife, too, the one with the classy maroon glasses, kneeling on the sidewalk on Main Street to write a message on a piece of cardboard.
Michelle "Chela" Bañuelos and husband Joseph A. Bañuelos aren't like the rest of us. And that's a good thing.
If there's a homeless person standing on a freeway off-ramp, most people ignore them or give them money, or, like me, they hand over food. But not Chela and Joseph. They give much more.
When the Bañueloses, of Santa Ana, married four years ago, they made a commitment to live a "creative life." In essence, it meant being open to all adventures and ideas, but they had no idea that this commitment would lead them into the lives of the homeless in their city.
"Without really defining it, it was just every day reaffirming that we were going to have a creative life, and opportunities started to present themselves," says Joseph, 61, who, with Chela, opened their first gallery, Amorviejo (old love), three months ago in Santa Ana.
Inspired by a Long Beach art exhibit on "home and the homeless," they decided they needed to do something to help address the issue of homelessness.
"There were a couple of pieces that really profoundly touched us about how, really, it could happen to anyone, at any time," says Joseph, who is a creative director at an advertising agency and a musician and produces fine art.
They noticed that the homeless share a common thread: the signs they create to get food, money or shelter.
"We thought, 'How can we support these people and look at them in a different way, as human beings who are doing the best they can to express themselves through what little objects they have to try to attract us?' " says Joseph.
Thus began their Sidewalk Angels project, so named for a homeless man Chela met named Curtis, who calls himself "Sidewalk Angel."
For the last year and a half, the couple have collected signs from homeless men and women across Santa Ana, offering money and/or meals along with a piece of fresh cardboard and pen to replace each sign.
The signs are worn and smudged. Some fold like accordions, to fit in pockets, while others are elaborately decorated with drawings of coins and bills. All of them get to the point: "Stranded and broke," "2nd World War veteran," "Please help."
For Chela, the project was a chance for her to overcome her fear of approaching strangers on the street. The first homeless man she approached outside a Taco Bell gladly gave up his sign for about $10.
"It really dissolved my fear. He smiled at me, and it was all so universal. It was such a great thing, knowing that I could do something to help him, and in return I got a present," says Chela, 52, also a musician and an artist who creates Latin American inspired altars and shrines using mosaic pieces and found objects.

Hi, Carol!
Did I ever tell you what a fantastic time that Joe and I had in Lahaina at your place? The condo is a near-perfect place; the only thing better would be ... hmm, I can't think of anything to improve! (You can quote me on that.)
I am bringing my daughter to Lahaina at the end of April. (April 23 to May 2, to be exact.) It's her 15th birthday. (Aw.) I'd love to stay in your condo again; it's my first choice. It looks like, from the calendar, that those dates are available.
Just let me know! And thanks.

My Magnificent Maui Vacation
A place to lay your head...
The water damage bubbles in the bathroom are common throughout the complex and beyond our control . The complex is scheduled for a complete plumbing overhaul next April, including all kitchens and bathrooms.
Yes, the dishwasher is noisy and the bottom rack is difficult to slide. We will replace it during the plumbing project as well as remodel the bathroom.
The bath towel issue could have been easily solved by calling us and requesting more towels. We leave a note with our telephone number and ask to be called if there are any questions, problems or concerns. Anyway, the amount of bathroom linens has been doubled.
We would like to emphasize that we are extremely conscientious and responsive owners.
Beautiful property right on the water.
Maui paradise
Murphy bed was comfortable and easy to operate and everything we needed was provided for, including, beach towels and mats, boogie board, raft, snorkel gear, washer/dryer on the same floor(expensive though).
Safeway grocery just up the road for breakfast foods to start the day, and a gelato shop for after dinner treats to end the day made perfect bookends. What more could one want?
Beautiful Lahaina Condo
The condo is great and the location was fabulous! Very convenient to access a lot of Lahaina.
The description here was very accurate and I would not hesitate staying here again.
My favourite, Feast at Lele right next door. The food was unbelievable.
Thanks again for letting us stay in your condo!! Barb and Wayne.

3* on Kansas Jayhawks -18.5
The Kansas Jayhawks finally got a taste of defeat within the last 7 days to Kansas State. If there is such a thing as a good loss, this one had to be it because now the Jayhawks are more focused then they have been all season. Missouri is 2-7 SU and ATS in road games this season. Missouri definitely doesn't stand a chance tonight without their best player in Stefhon Hannah. Kansas is winning their home games by an average of 29 points per game this year. Missouri is 0-7 ATS after a win by 6 points or less over the last 3 seasons. Bet Kansas at home.

Game: N C- Greensboro at Georgia Southern
Pick: N C- Greensboro +2.5
The Spartans have now gone 10-2 in their last 12 game and are playing with confidence. Kyle Hines has been a dominating player lately. He has averaged 22 points per game, 10.7 rebounds per game and 2.3 blocks per game over his last six outings. Hines had a sub-par game against Georgia Southern earlier, but the Spartans still won by 12. Georgia Southern loaded up its early schedule resulting in a 9-2 start, but has since been 5-6, which shows that they aren't as good as perhaps their record would indicate. Spartans have the edge here, so we will grab the points with a live dog.

1 Unit on Chicago Bulls -1
Seattle comes into this one considerably hotter than the Bulls having won 3 in a row, but I still like Chicago tonight. The Bulls beat the Sonics by 27 in Chicago earlier this season and are 7-3 ATS in their last 10 games in Seattle. Seattle is 0-8 ATS in home games after 2 consecutive non-conference games over the last 2 seasons. The Bulls are 5-1 ATS in their last 6 games following a S.U. loss. Seattle is 1-6 ATS in its last 7 vs. the Eastern Conference. Take the Bulls to get the Sonics again tonight.

Without Sidney Crosby in the lineup, the Penguins are going to struggle to find consistency on offense. Lay the moneyline chalk on the Devils in New Jersey this evening.
Our Monday night NHL selection is on the New Jersey Devils at home over the Pittsburgh Penguins.
Devils (-190) to pop Penguins
On Saturday, the Pens scored four goals in the third period to win at home 4-1 over Carolina, but were shut out in the first two periods, and their offense looked moribund until the third period explosion. Certainly, we should see that a lot throughout Sidney Crosby's absence.
I look for New Jersey to shut down Pittburgh tonight. Take the Devils.
Free Pick: Devils -190

Georgia Southern is 9-1 SU and 8-2 ATS as a favorite this year. Georgia Southern is 6-1 SU at home this season. Georgia Southern is scoring 82.4 points per game at home this year. Spartans are 5-12 ATS in their last 17 Monday games. Eagles are 6-0 ATS in their last 6 games as a favorite of 0.5-6.5. Eagles are 10-2 ATS in their last 12 games as a favorite. Eagles are 7-2 ATS in their last 9 home games. Eagles are 5-2 ATS in their last 7 Monday games. Eagles are 5-2 ATS in their last 7 games as a home favorite. We'll recommend a small play on Georgia Southern tonight! Thanks and good luck, Rocky
Re: Monday Service Plays
Stephen Nover
GAME: Toronto Raptors @ Miami Heat
PICK: over
Offered at: 191.5
REASON FOR PICK: This matchup sets up well for an 'over' to occur. The Raptors are averaging 109.4 points during their past five games. Chris Bosh is playing at a high offensive level, averaging 29 points during the past 10 games. Andrea Bargnani is showing signs his game is coming around scoring 28 points in Toronto's last game.
The Heat are giving up an average of 106 points during their past three games. They now have the worst record in the NBA. Their pride and morale are gone and when those two areas are lost so is the commitment to play good defense, Miami also is missing its two best rebounders, Shaquille O'Neal and Udonis Haslem.
The Heat, though, should get their share of points. They've been off since Friday. That's great news for Dwayne Wade, who has been battling the flu and needed the rest. He's averaged 34.8 points and shot better than 58 percent from the floor in his past four games versus Toronto.
The Heat probably are going to be very active before the Feb. 21 trade deadline. Ricky Davis is one player rumored to be leaving Miami. He's an outstanding scoring talent, but hasn't been a good clubhouse fit. The Heat may extend Davis' minutes in an effort to showcase him, which also helps the 'over.'
This is a two-unit play for me.

Mayor Bloomberg says NYC Marathon canceled
More News from Jennifer Peltz, Rachel Cohen
More News from Associated Press
NEW YORK— The New York City Marathon was canceled on Friday by Mayor Michael Bloomberg after mounting criticism that this was not the time for a race while the region is still recovering from Superstorm Sandy.
With people in storm-ravaged areas still shivering without electricity and the death toll in New York City at more than 40, many residents recoiled at the prospect of police officers being assigned to protect Sunday's race.
An estimated 40,000 runners from around the world had been expected to take part in the 26.2-mile (42.2-kilometer) event. The race had been scheduled to start in Staten Island, one of the hardest-hit areas by this week's storm.
A few hours after Bloomberg insisted the race would be held, he reversed his decision when top city officials lined up against him.
"We would not want a cloud to hang over the race or its participants, and so we have decided to cancel it," the mayor said in a statement. "We cannot allow a controversy over an athletic event — even one as meaningful as this — to distract attention away from all the critically important work that is being done to recover from the storm and get our city back on track."
The nationally televised race that winds through the city's five boroughs and ends in Central Park has been held annually since 1970 — it was held in 2001, about two months after the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks.
The cancellation means there won't be another NYC Marathon until next year.
Bloomberg called the marathon an "integral part of New York City's life for 40 years" and "an event tens of thousands of New Yorkers participate in and millions more watch."
He still insisted that holding the race would not require diverting resources from the recovery effort, but understood the level of friction.
"It is clear it that it has become the source of controversy and division," Bloomberg said. "The marathon has always brought our city together and inspired us with stories of courage and determination."
Mary Wittenberg, president of the organizing New York Road Runners, said it was the right move.
"It's clear today the best thing for New York and the best thing for the marathon for the future is unfortunately to move on, and this isn't the year or the time to run it," she said in a statement.
"It's crushing and it's really difficult. It's one of the toughest decisions we ever made, but we really believe it's the right thing for New York," she said.
