I followed the great tips from the other repairs and that part was easy. Turned out not to be the exact problem. The problem was the rear bearing shaft which in another 20 min I had the drum out and repaired. Now the dryer is like new and will hopefully last another 5 yrs.Thanks Parts Select for your help!

Cebuana Lhuiller bludgeons Erase Xfoliant 92-74
More News from Celest R. Flores
More News from INQUIRER.net
MANILA, Philippines — Cebuana Lhuiller rained treys in the second half to come back and rout Erase Xfoliant 92-74 Thursday in the PBA D-League Aspirants Cup at the Trinity University Gym in Quezon City.
The Gems, doomed by inconsistency early in the conference, made the Xfoliants feel the brunt of their attack as they sizzled with 10 treys in the second half.
From a 33-45 deficit at halftime, returning Paul Sanga sparked Cebuana Lhuiller's explosion with three treys before Jopher Custodio just went off.
Custodio scored all but two of the Gems' last 15 points in the third quarter built around three treys, then added three more in the payoff period.
The hot-shooting forward made sure Cebuana, which went down by as big as 14 in the first half, remained in cruise control of the match with a 21-point lead — its biggest of the game.
"This is the shooting percentage we've been looking for from our guys like James Mangahas, Paul Sanga and Custodio," said head coach Beaujing Acot. "We were lucky sabay sabay sila pumutok."
Custodio finished with 25 points, seven rebounds and two assists, while the Gems' big men provided big boosts with a combined 27 points from June Dizon and Raymond Aguilar.
"We know our big man can really take care of our interior," said Acot of his frontline.
Jett Vidal had 1 point, Marlon Gomez 15 and Nate Matute 11 as the Xfoliants lost their second straight and fourth overall (2-4).
Vidal tried to half the Gems' momentum with a trey two minutes into the second half, but that was the last they would connect from downtown.
Erase scored just seven measly points while allowing their opponents to sizzle with 33 in the game-changing third period.

US auto sales up in July as cars see big gains
DETROIT Pickup trucks led the charge in July, but strong sales of small cars show that demand for new vehicles is broad - and not slowing down.
Car sales grew in the first six months of this year, but not at the blistering pace of trucks and SUVs. Through June, full-size pickups were up 22.5 percent over the year before, while cars were up 5 percent.
But in July, sales of smaller cars took off. General Motors said its car sales jumped 24 percent, including a 42 percent increase in subcompact and small car sales. Honda Civic sales were up 30 percent to 32,416, their best July in 13 years.
Sales of the recently redesigned Ford Fiesta subcompact were up 89 percent. Another subcompact, the Nissan Versa, was up 21 percent.
Part of the frenzy was seasonal. Small cars traditionally sell better in the summer and then taper off as winter approaches. But it's also an indication of the high level of demand from all kinds of customers, which is likely to remain for the rest of this year.
"We think there's more room to grow this year," said Kurt McNeil, GM's U.S. sales chief, citing improving home values and rising consumer confidence.
GM, Ford, Chrysler, Toyota, Honda and Nissan all reported double-digit sales gains last month. Of major automakers, only Volkswagen had a down month. Its sales were off 3.3 percent as the top-selling Jetta compact faltered.
Honda led the way with a 21 percent sales increase. Toyota and GM both saw sales rise around 16 percent. Chrysler, Nissan and Ford all reported 11 percent gains.
Most industry analysts estimate that July sales rose around 15 percent from a year ago - the final tally comes out later in the day. A performance that strong will signal that the industry's momentum can carry through December.
"We're almost at a pre-recession pace that looks like it may have the momentum that will carry it through the second half of the year and beyond," said Alec Gutierrez, senior market analyst for Kelley Blue Book.
The industry's numbers for July come a day after the U.S. government reported stronger than expected growth for the April-June quarter. And healthy auto sales are buoying growth in the production of metal parts and components, helping factories expand at the fastest pace in two years, according to the Institute for Supply Management.
The consulting firm LMC Automotive said the second-half tail wind could push this year's sales to around 16 million. Sales last topped 16 million in 2007, just ahead of the recession. They bottomed out at a 30-year low of 10.4 million in 2009, and have been recovering ever since.
A combination of low interest rates, an improving economy, rising consumer confidence and increasing home values in many areas is driving sales. In addition, automakers have been rolling out appealing new products in every segment from subcompact cars to big pickup trucks.
Incentives such as rebates and low-interest loans are helping sales. Incentives in July rose nearly 8 percent over a year ago to $2,684 per vehicle. That's the highest level of the year, said Jesse Toprak, senior analyst for the TrueCar.com auto pricing site.

The game, which is scheduled to take place on Jan. 28 at Ladd-Peebles Stadium in Mobile, Ala., features some of the countryŌĆÖs top senior athletes and potential NFL prospects.
Quick is the second ASU player to play in the game, joining wideout Dexter Jackson, who played in the game back in 2007.

NEWARK, N.J.ŌĆö Deron Williams came close to a triple double on Sunday night.
He had 19 points, nine rebounds and 10 assists to lead the New Jersey Nets to a 97-87 victory over the Charlotte Bobcats.
Williams' near triple double would have been the first of the season for the Nets, who improved to 5-12 on the season.
"It was close. I've been close a number of times," Williams said. "It will happen someday."
MarShon Brooks added 20 points for the Nets, while Anthony Morrow added 19 points.

National Security Correspondent J.J. Green has traveled three continents covering intelligence, terrorism, and security issues. From Afghanistan to Africa, Iraq to Ireland, there isn't anywhere J.J. won't go, nor anyone he won't talk with, to get the stories affecting the defense and national security communities.
U.S. pressured to leave Iraq
Radical Cleric Muqtada el-Sadr want the U.S. out of Iraq. He restated that demand again yesterday, but General David Petraeus said on the Pentagon Channel yesterday, "we've got to work with our Iraqi partners to insure that we can continue to provide for them assistance, capabilities that have proven to be very important for them even as we obviously continue to reduce our forces." Al-Sadr wants the "army, the bases, the trainers, the embassy, the militias, the companies, the US aid, and anything that is American," out.
Military exercises cancelled
Egypt and the United States are scrapping this year's "Bright Star" military drills, the largest exercises in the region. A Pentagon official said "ongoing transition events" in Egypt's move toward democracy is the main reason. Egypt's leadership vacuum is also another key issue. The "Bright Star" drill dates back to 1981. It's one of the longest running drills for the U.S. and partner countries.
Panetta: Budget cuts could be "devastating"
The pentagon can handle big budget cuts, but only up to a point. Defense Secretary Leon Panetta said big cuts would "terribly weaken" U.S. national security. He said the Pentagon is prepared to make $350 billion in cuts over the next 10 years, but larger cuts, he said, would be "devastating." During an appearance at the National Defense University Panetta said progress by American-led forces against the Taliban in Afghanistan and by NATO forces in support of anti-government rebels in Libya might suffer from cuts.
Al Qaida in Iraq making a comeback
Has al Qaida in Iraq rebounded? Simultaneous attacks targeting Shiite civilians and Iraqi security forces by suicide bombers carries the al-Qaida in Iraq signature. The scope and sophistication suggests the terror group may be back to full strength. The violence comes less than two weeks after Iraqi officials said they would discuss with the U.S. whether to have some American forces stay in the country past their Dec. 31 withdrawal deadline.
Chinese begin sea trials
There's been a lot of talk about China's first Aircraft carrier and whether it's a threat. It's headed out for sea trials that will last 15 days. The carrier, coming on the heels of China's rollout of a stealth fighter last year has raised concerns for some who carefully follow Sino-US relations. Some say the carrier is driven in part by China's desire for international prestige. Others say it's because China's more plugged into the international economy.
Experimental plane making history
The Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency says an unmanned experimental aircraft lost contact with ground control on its second test flight. The Falcon HTV-2, designed to glide down from the upper atmosphere at 20 times the speed of sound, was launched from Vandenberg Air Force Base in California. The first part of the launch did go well. DARPA said they managed to collect some valuable information. This plane is able to fly anywhere in the world in less than 60 minutes.
Officer gets life in prison
An Army sergeant based at Fort Stewart was sentenced Wednesday to life in a military prison without parole for shooting and killing his infantry squad leader and another U.S. soldier in Iraq after they criticized him for poor performance. According to the associated Press the military jury's sentence also calls for Sgt. Joseph Bozicevich, 41, of Minneapolis to be demoted in rank to private and to receive a dishonorable discharge. The same court-martial convicted him of premeditated murder May 25 in the slayings of Staff Sgt. Darris Dawson of Pensacola, Fla., and Sgt. Wesley Durbin of Dallas at a small patrol base outside Baghdad on Sept. 14, 2008.
Charges filed in Ft Hood plot
A federal grand jury indicted an AWOL soldier Tuesday on three charges in connection with a plot to bomb Fort Hood soldiers in Texas. According to the Associated Press, Pfc. Naser Jason Abdo, 21, was indicted in Waco on charges of possession of an unregistered destructive device, possession of a firearm and possession of ammunition by a fugitive from justice, according to federal prosecutors. He faces up to 10 years in prison on each charge if convicted.
Lawsuit moves forward
A court says two Americans who worked for an Iraqi contracting firm can move forward with a lawsuit accusing former Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld of being responsible for U.S. forces allegedly torturing them. The ruling Monday from the 7th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in Chicago a rejects arguments that Rumsfeld should be immune from such lawsuits for work performed as a Cabinet secretary.
Donald Vance and Nathan Ertel claim they were tortured in 2006 after blowing the whistle on alleged illegal activities by a contracting company. They say they were subjected to sleep deprivation, blasting music, hunger and various threats.
Budget cuts concern DOD leaders
The U.S. doesn't have to chose between fiscal discipline and national security. The words of Secretary of Defense Leon Panetta. In his first news conference since taking office looming budget cuts were his focus. He was joined by outgoing chairman of the joint Chiefs Admiral Mike Mullen. Mullen warned that programs that can't meet costs or target dates are in jeopardy of being cut. Both assured military personnel they have their best interest at heart.
Panetta promises responsible defense cuts
Billions of dollars in defense cuts are coming, but Defense Secretary Leon Panetta, in a message to the work force this week said, "I am determined not to repeat the mistakes of the past." Without saying what those mistakes were, he quoted President Barack Obama's plan "to conduct a fundamental review of America's missions, capabilities, and our role in a changing world." He added, he will make sure that defense cuts are "not pursued in a hasty, ill-conceived way that would undermine the military ability to protect America and its vital interests around the globe".
DARPA creates new battlefield solutions
On the battlefield information from video sensors is important, but there aren't enough time or people to review it for potentially sensitive information. But DARPA may have come up with 2 solution. The Video and Image Retrieval and Analysis Tool (VIRAT) and Persistent Stare Exploitation and Analysis System (PerSEAS) programs may soon enable better war fighter analysis of huge amounts of data generated from multiple types of sensors.
U.S. dialogue in Iraq working
It appears that attacks by Iranian backed militia on U.S. forces in Iraq are decreasing. A combination of diplomatic engagement and military operations get the credit. It was just a few weeks ago that Defense Secretary Leon Panetta warned if the attacks didn't stop, the U.S. would take some action. Joint Chiefs Chairman Admiral Mike Mullen who stopped into Iraq on an unannounced visit said he still in a wait and see mode as to where the trend can be continued. 14 U.S. service members were killed in hostile action in June.
Power vacuum threatens Afghanistan
The assassinations in Afghanistan are not a surprise. Joint Chiefs Chairman Admiral Mike Mullen says U.S. officials had long predicted the kind of attacks that have shaken southern Afghanistan and Kandahar province in recent weeks. He said, We thought that's where they'd try to go. That's where they're going and we've got to work hard to prevent that." The killing of the Mayor of Kandahar has raised fears that a power vacuum could be developing.
Solider arrested near Ft Hood
Who was the man planning to attack Ft. Hood? PFC Naser J. Abdo, age 21, was assigned to and was AWOL from E Co, 1st Brigade Combat Team (Rear Provisional), 101st Airborne Division, Ft Campbell, KY. He entered service in March 2009 and is from Garland, Texas. His Military Occupational Specialty is 11B, Infantryman. He ran into trouble at Ft. Campbell because of child pornography charges.
State Department Issues Worldwide Caution alert
The Department of State has renewed Worldwide Caution alert. The communiqué issued yesterday says it was done to update Americans on the continuing threat of terrorist actions and violence against U.S. citizens and interests throughout the world. U.S. citizens are reminded to maintain a high level of vigilance and to take appropriate steps to increase their security awareness. The previous alert was issued January 31st.
CERT Director resigns
Randy Vickers has stepped down as director of the U.S. Computer Emergency Readiness Team. An email, obtained by Reuters did not disclose any reason for the resignation, Reuters writes, "a Homeland Security official would only say: 'we aren't commenting on personnel matters.' Vickers' resignation follows several high-profile hacker attacks against the Pentagon and public websites of the Central Intelligence Agency and U.S. Senate."
DoD keeps up the pressure
Defense Secretary Leon Panetta is pledging to keep up the pressure on al-Qaida. At his formal swearing-in ceremony, the former CIA director said that if the U.S. remains committed to that fight, and it ultimately will succeed in denying safe havens for the organization. In the meantime, authorities in Oslo are digging into whether al-Qaida's ideology played any role in the deadly blast and shooting rampage last week.
Panetta sworn in
Leon Panetta is the 23rd Secretary of Defense today. The first was James Vincent Forrestal. He served from September of 1947 until March of 1949 at the pleasure of President Dwight Eisenhower. Panetta begins his tour at the Pentagon after finishing a two year stint as director of the CIA. Many experts expect that his ground work to improve relations between the intelligence community with the Congress may produce dividends for the Pentagon as well.
Marine to receive Medal of Honor
President Barack Obama is going the present the Medal of Honor to a Marine who took on enemy fire in Afghanistan to find and bring back three missing Marines and a Navy corpsman. Dakota Meyer, who left active duty in June 2010, will be the first living Marine in 41 years to receive the nation's highest award for valor. Only two living recipients - Army Staff Sgt. Salvatore Giunta and Army Sgt. 1st Class Leroy Petry - have received the award for actions in Iraq and Afghanistan.

For Marching Warriors, all work means a lot of play
Fallbrook High band preparing for season, role in 2016 New Year's parade in London
FALLBROOK What comes to mind when you think of a teenage summer — maybe fun part-time jobs and trips to the beach? For a few dozen Fallbrook High School students, summer also means long days of hard work and fun at band camp.
To the more than 50 members of the Marching Warriors and their leader, Band Director Victor Torres, it's all worth it.
"We're getting a lot of work done so we'll (be) good during the season," said junior Jordan Bullock, a drummer.
And they do have some fun.
"It's almost like a vacation," said sophomore Mason Genduso, who plays alto saxophone.
"With friends!" added junior saxophonist Taylor Frazier.
Aside from practicing for another award-winning season, the Marching Warriors also have a future international performance on their minds. The band has been invited to march in the 2016 London New Year's Day Parade, Torres said.
The London event is considered the largest New Year's Day parade, with 10,000 performers and upward of 1 million spectators. The event is a fundraiser for London charities. Two cheerleaders from Oceanside's El Camino High School participated in the 2014 parade.
"We're going to put the school on an international map for the first time," Torres said. It's going to be life-changing for all of these kids."
The Marching Warriors came to the attention of London parade organizers thanks to Riverside Community College Band Director Gary Locke, a liaison for the parade company and a former colleague and mentor of Torres.
"(Locke had) seen us perform and he said 'I wouldn't have called you unless you were ready,' " Torres said.
The Fallbrook Union High School District board approved the band's London parade participation at its meeting Monday. Organizers are expected to travel from London to make a formal announcement to the student body sometime in September, Torres said.
Torres and his performers continue to build on what he started when he joined Fallbrook High in 2011. At the time, about 10 students showed up and the band boosters was nonexistent. But the program grew quickly.
"My first year, I just wanted to build quality, build technique, build the band back," Torres said. "The kids I met that first year were incredible." "The one thing they loved the most was they did not get last place" in any competitions.
The next two seasons yielded many trophies for the Marching Warriors. In 2012, Torres welcomed 26 freshmen to the band, and placed first in all but one competition, qualifying for the Southern California school band championships. Another highlight has been performing the national anthem at San Diego Padres games.
Marching band, a fall elective, includes drumline, brass, woodwinds, and color guard. They provide entertainment and spirit at football games, compete, and march in parades. In spring, the group breaks up into ensembles.
Many of the young musicians say that what they love most about the band is the sense of belonging.
"For the people who are in it, it almost creates a safe haven. You don't judge each other," said Mason, whose grandmother and mother also played saxophone.

Giles Coren out loud
Giles Coren reviews Kanada-Ya Giles Coren has been a restaurant critic and columnist for The Times since 1993
Thank you for your patience over the last week or so. We are pleased to announce that we have introduced a new comment system on thetimes.co.uk and thesundaytimes.co.uk.
We had a few issues with the size and colour of the text but, having listened to feedback from our readers, we've made it darker and larger. We've also noted the fondness to sort comments by 'Most Recommended'. Our plan was always to bring this functionality back once the basic system was in place so rest assured it will return in due course.
Also if someone has replied to your comment and you haven't received an email notification, it might be that they are being trapped by your spam filter. Just add this email - email@example.com - to the list of approved addresses and they should come through as normal.
The thinking behind the new system is simple: we're very proud of the level of discussion and debate that takes place on our website and we wanted to make the process of leaving a comment as easy and enjoyable as possible.
There's a good chance that you're one of the thousands of people who comments on our journalism and debates with our journalists every day. And if you're not, we hope these new features might spur you into doing so.
1. Never miss a thing
Keep track of replies to your comments with email alerts. Just go to 'My Account', put in your password, click on 'My Commenting Preferences' and decide if you'd like to be informed immediately, hourly or not at all.
2. Emphasise your point
Underline text or add links and bullet points by highlighting the text you want to change. Then click the pencil on the comment box to get started.
3. Bring people into the conversation
Directly address other people in the conversation by clicking the @ button and picking their commenting screen name from the list.
4. Track discussions that interest you
Follow the conversation even if you don't want to comment just yet. Just click 'Follow conversation' on the comment box to receive updates either immediately or hourly.
In the coming months, we'll be doing more to highlight the best comments from across the site. We've also written some community tips, which I hope you'll find useful - whether you're an enthusiastic commenter or yet to make your first comment. You can read them here: www.thetimes.co.uk/commentingtips
We are always aiming to improve the service we offer you and we'd love to hear what you think - email us at email@example.com with your comments or call 0800 018 5177 (or +44 207 711 1527 if you are calling from overseas).
If you would like to talk to me about comments or anything community related please email email@example.com

Clean Energy Project Development and Finance
This case study-oriented course will focus on the critical skills needed to evaluate, develop, finance (on a non-recourse basis), and complete standalone energy and infrastructure projects. The primary course materials will be documents from several representative projects - e.g. wind and carbon capture - covering key areas including market and feasibility studies, environmental permitting and regulatory decisions, financial disclosure from bank and bond transactions, and construction, input, and offtake contracts. Documents from executed transactions are highly customized. By taking a forensic approach, looking at several different deals, we can learn how project developers, financiers, and lawyers work to get deals over the finish line that meet the demands of the market, the requirements of the law, and (sometimes) broader societal goals. Elements used in grading: Participation 50% Projects/Papers 50%. Case and Problem Discussion. All + waitlist must attend. Absences impact grade. Cross-listed with Graduate School of Business (GSBGEN 335).

Tablet. Hotels for Global Nomads
Travel Better.
The London NYC
151 W 54th Street, New York City, NY, USA
Neighborhood: Manhattan - Midtown
Check availability as rates may vary for dates. Best rate guaranteed.
Here's a hotel that comes with some expectations. The London NYC hotel is fresh off a thorough re-imagining at the hands of the Irish interior designer David Collins, as well as the addition of a marquee name to New York's culinary scene, in the form of the first Gordon Ramsay restaurant on American soil.
Despite the name, the London NYC hotel steers mercifully clear of any kind of heavy-handed British-themed kitsch. Suites range from quite spacious all the way up to downright sprawling, a luxury indeed in a city where, as in London, hotel room square footage is at a premium. The look is muted but not minimalist, a sort of understated modernist luxury, with extra attention paid to the tangible comforts, like iPod docking stations and multi-headed showers.
There's a fitness center, which is stylish, for a fitness center, and meeting space, as well as an award-winning concierge service. So far so good. The most eagerly awaited facet of The London NYC, however, has got to be the Gordon Ramsay angle. As with anything Mr. Ramsay does, the headlines threatened to distract from the cooking — but in the end the important point is that London NYC's restaurant is far enough beyond most hotels' offerings as to be playing in a different league entirely.

What I liked:
The location could not be better. Located right in New Yorks central tourist area convenient to 5th Ave, Central Park , Broadway theaters and MOMa. Perfect, in walking distance to all the major stuff
What the hotel could do better:
The bar was insanely overpriced. Twoglasses of Costco quality wine came to $45 plus tip. The two bottlles were worth less than that. Plus the bar selled like cooked fish. Ventilation could have been better. Shame on you chef Ramsay!

Yeah, he did a real good job against Duncan in the 2003 Finals. Duncan averaged 24,17,5,5. Tim almost had a quadruple double the final game. After calling out KVH the year before, he pulls a no-show in the final two games. Potential and $1.50 will get you a cup of coffee. Is it enough potential to overcome the injury and attitude problems? Let me see him play at a high level without Kidd and in the west. And yes, Damp's not perfect but I'd rather have him to throw at Shaq than Kmart. Do you honestly think Kmart would've done better against Shaq?
It's not a matter of can you afford him. It's a matter of is it money well spent. And just for me, I need to see more from him before I'd consider spending the money. But then again it's not my money, nor my team. Just my opinion.

Malik and Robin Jackson
Glory Johnson's relationship continues to grow with mom
When he was a defensive end at Southern Cal, Malik Jackson didn't see the field as much as he preferred, but he always had a lunch date.
His mother, Robin, worked a few miles down the street in the heart of downtown Los Angeles. Those lunch meetings, and the everyday access he had to the woman who always supported his football dreams, were the reasons why Jackson, an Inglewood, Calif., native stayed so close to home after high school.
Now that Jackson is a Vol, she's 2,200 miles away. It hasn't been easy.
"Being here, it's kind of hard," Jackson said. "Now I know why college guys are always moaning about their moms. It's kind of hard to be far away, but it's just a growing up experience."
Jackson grew up fast in his first season with the Vols, one that ended with him at a new position (defensive tackle) and second-team All-SEC honors for his 11.5 tackles for loss and five sacks. He saw Robin just once during the regular season when she visited for the Oregon game in September.
Because of the long distance - as long as anyone on UT's roster - Jackson had to stay in Knoxville for Thanksgiving and Christmas. It was the first time Jackson had ever been away from his mother for any major holiday, let alone the two biggest ones.
"It kind of sucked," Jackson said. "She called me and said it was OK. She told me she was crying, too, but it was both our first times."
Robin is planning for it to be the last time.
Jackson has professional aspirations and Robin has aspirations to follow him to wherever he lands. Jackson said she already has picked up housing magazines from every state with an NFL franchise.
"Hopefully I can make her dreams come true," Jackson said. "Stay healthy and make some money for her."

Help clients take advantage of the First Time Homebuyer Credit
It's a great idea... stimulating the economy from the ground up by giving would-be homebuyers an $8,000 push. But since the purchase must complete before the credit can be obtained, for those who don't have the down payment up front, the First Time Homebuyer Credit works better in theory than in practice. Here's a reminder of the rules for using the First Time Homebuyer Credit: The credit is available to first time homebuyers, defined as an individual who has not owned a home in the three year period prior to the purchase.

The incoming budget chief in the U.S. House of Representatives Wednesday said he will demand spending concessions from the Obama administration in exchange for any increase in the national debt ceiling.
Representative Paul Ryan of Wisconsin, who is about to take over the House Budget Committee as its new Republican chairman, also said in U.S. television interviews that the Republicans' $100 billion target for spending cuts this year has been "compromised" by federal spending already under way.
"I'm not interested in raising the debt ceiling on the hope that a promise will be fulfilled at a later time," Ryan told MSNBC's "Morning Joe."
"I'm only interested in raising the debt ceiling if we get concessions on spending, on real controls to get our fiscal situation turned around and headed in the right direction."
The new 112th Congress convenes Wednesday with Republicans assuming control of the House after big gains in November elections.
In a separate interview with NBC's "Today" show, Ryan said Republicans were not planning to reneg on a campaign promise to reduce federal spending for the current fiscal year, which began on Oct. 1, 2010. But he acknowledged that their target figure for cuts was unlikely to be reached.
"The problem with the $100 billion point was, we said we were going to bring spending down to 2008 levels, he said.
"We're half way through the fiscal year right now. so the problem is half the spending cats are already out of the bag and that is why that number has become compromised."

We have one of these and the cat loves it. Drag it on the floor or tease her around a corner and she's always interested. Keep toys fresh and change back and forth often and your cat will stay interested. These are pretty durable.

Older Americans Still Getting Routine Cancer Screening
Researchers said on Monday that although the benefits of cancer screening in elderly people are less certain than the risks, many older Americans are still getting the routine tests.
In a survey, over half of women between 75 and 79 said they were being screened for breast cancer and had a recent Pap smear to look for signs of cervical cancer.
Most men in the same age group had been screened for prostate cancer recently as well.
The number of elderly people who were screened for cancers over 80 dropped some, but they were still high despite uncertainty over the potential benefits of screening tests in the elderly.
"Historically older adults have been excluded from screening trials, so the screening efficacy data in this population are really limited," Keith M. Bellizzi, a public health researcher at the University of Connecticut, who lead the new work, told Reuters.
Some screening tests have downsides, such as the cost of looking for disease in people who are healthy. Another downside is the potential complications of procedures like colonoscopies.
The tests may also sound false alarms that can lead to unnecessary biopsies.
The benefits outweigh the risks in younger adults, but as people age the benefits seem to be flipped the other way around.
"At a minimum, in order to see any benefit of screening, you would want your patient to have a life expectancy of more than five years," Bellizzi told Reuters Health.
He said that screening people who have other health problems may also require extra thought as well.
"If you are going to screen in older adults for a cancer, you wouldn't want to do that unless you're sure that individual would be able to tolerate that treatment," Bellizzi told Reuters.
The researchers used data on over 4,000 elderly people and found that 57 percent had been screened for colon cancer, and 56 percent of men had been screened for prostate cancer.
They also found that 62 percent of women between the ages of 75 and 79 had been screened for breast cancer within the past two years, and 53 percent had been screened for cervical cancer during the past three years.
The U.S. Preventive Services Task Force either recommends against routine screening of people 75 and older, or says that evidence is insufficient to balance the benefits and harms.
The American Cancer Society has no upper age limit for its colon cancer recommendations, but says that men whose life expectancy is less than 10 years should not be offered prostate cancer screening.
Bellizzi said it is difficult to separate the group of seniors who may be healthy and have a long life ahead of them, and those who may be very unlikely to get anything but harm from screening.
"Over 50 percent of physicians are continuing to recommend screening tests in older men and women," he told Reuters. "I'm hopeful that these findings will serve as a catalyst for an important dialogue that needs to take place."
He said that elderly citizens who face the choice of whether or not to get screened should weigh their options with their physicians based on their personal values and preferences.
"I would recommend for patients to have a real thoughtful conversation with their provider to talk about the potential harms and benefits of screening," Bellizzi told Reuters.
The research was published in the Archives of Internal Medicine.

May 13, 2013
The Sedalia City Council will hold a work session on Monday to discuss a possible smoking ban ordinance for the city.
Council held a similar session on April 29 and — after debating whether the ban should be across-the-board for all restaurants, bars, offices and private clubs or if certain areas should be excluded — decided to hold another session to continue discussions.
"During this session the mayor wanted to make sure council had time to discuss the issue more thoroughly among themselves," said City Administrator Gary Edwards. "We'll go through the proposed draft ordinance and then have time for council to walk through it, point by point if necessary, to see what they ultimately decide on."
Edwards said there may be time for public comments at the end of the work session, though he did note that like last time, the mayor would ask that large groups or businesses elect a representative to speak for them.
"We also want to make sure there are comments that haven't already been expressed during the earlier meeting," he added.
Council will take no action today, though they may ask city staff to change the ordinance and bring it back to a future meeting.
Council will meet at 6 p.m. in the mayor's conference room at the Municipal Building, 200 S. Osage Ave. For more information, call 827-3000.

Tina Turner ties knot in Switzerland
GENEVA — Tina Turner, the US-born superstar famed for hits such as "Private Dancer," has married her longtime German partner and will reportedly celebrate the union in a Buddhist ceremony in Switzerland Sunday.
The 73-year-old retired singer wed 57-year-old record executive Erwin Bach in a discreet civil ceremony on the banks of Lake Zurich in Kusnacht, northern Switzerland "a few days ago," municipal official Hannes Friess told AFP.
According to Swiss media reports, the pair will celebrate the union at their Kusnacht manor on Sunday with an intimate Buddhist ceremony attended by 120 guests.
Music industry A-listers including David Bowie, Eros Ramazzoti and Sade are due to attend along with television talk show queen Oprah Winfrey, according to Swiss weekly Schweiz am Sonntag, which also reported guests were requested to wear white.
The bride herself, who traded in her US passport for a Swiss one earlier this year, will be wearing a gown designed by Italian fashion giant Giorgio Armani, according to the newspaper, which did not reveal its sources.
Swiss media reported that a small stage would be set up for Sunday's party, and that Turner and Bach had sent out letters to their neighbors apologizing in advance for the noise they might cause.
Turner, born Anna Mae Bullock in Tennessee, was the voice of such hits as "Simply the Best" and "We Don't Need Another Hero," over a five-decades long career, and moved to Switzerland in 1995 when Bach was transferred to the country.
Before her relationship with Bach began in the mid-1980s, Turner was famously married to her musical partner Ike Turner for 14 years.
She left him in 1976 after suffering serious domestic abuse, as detailed in her autobiography "I, Tina," and alluded to in her 1984 hit "What's Love Got To Do With It."
Tina Turner retired from the public eye after a final tour in 2008/2009.

CORNETTSVILLE—A Perry County minor has died after the ATV he was riding in was struck by another vehicle over the weekend.
Trooper Jody Sims with the Kentucky State Police (KSP) confirmed that Trooper Eric Caldwell responded to a call about an accident just after 5 p.m. on Saturday, May 3, involving an ATV and a vehicle in the Cornettsville area of Perry County on Kentucky Highway 699.
According to Sims, a side-by-side ATV, driven by Eulene Caudill with a minor passenger, had pulled out of a private drive and onto Hwy 699 when it crossed paths with a Toyota pickup truck driven by 22-year-old Jonathan Shepherd, of Slemp. Caudill and Shepherd were taken to the Hazard ARH for non-life-threatening injuries, while the minor was flown from the scene to the Holston Valley Medical Center, where he later died due to injuries sustained in the crash.
Sims confirmed that the minor was wearing a helmet at the time of the collision, and the use of alcohol or drugs have not been considered as contributing factors in the collision, though toxicology results are pending on both drivers.
The case remains under investigation by the KSP.

Starting today, a stamp will cost 45 cents instead of 44. I'm sure this is going to put a damper on all the personal, handwritten notes you were planning on sending out this month.
I still have dozens of stamps left over from my Christmas cards. They feature the Madonna and Child and their latent holiday gloss fairly screams "The sender of this letter is totally disorganized!"
Luckily, they are "forever" stamps, which means they still are good enough to mail a letter even though I only paid 44 cents for them last month. Forever stamps are good for … yes, forever. But when you buy new stamps you will pay the higher price of 45 cents.
Remember the old days when the post office raised the stamp prices, and you had to go buy a bunch of 3-cent stamps to add to the stamps you had just so that you could use up all your old stamps? And I never bought the right amount of three-cent stamps, so I would end up with extra three-cent stamps floating around my drawer. Why should I throw them away? That's 12 cents!
The post office is losing money because so many of us now have our mailing needs met by the Internet. Email, online bill payment, Facebook, etc., keep us all current without buying any stamps.
Still though, there's nothing like getting a letter.
I make my kids write thank you notes, and I write them, too, and we mail them. My mother sends me clippings of newspaper articles with keen regularity, and we all still get birthday cards in the mail. My mother-in-law sends a dollar with each of her cards. We love when she sends a card.
When I get a letter or a card, it usually floats around the dining room and living room for a few days, which means I read it a couple of times, or show it to everyone in the family to make sure they've seen it, and then I might even save it in a big box I have in the attic. Email gets deleted. Well, not deleted really. Just forgotten.
I don't get that many cards, though. My mail is mostly bills and junk mail. Or, as Patrick Donahue, the Postmaster General refers to it -- "jobs mail". It's one of the few segments of mail volume that has grown significantly in the recent years. On a per cost basis, direct mail still offers an excellent return on an advertiser's dollar.
