While I am firmly against parking structures on our eight parking plazas because of the inconvenience to shoppers and the disruption of business for the retail stores, I was particularly annoyed by the inclusion of the two "covered markets" in the plan.
Why does downtown Menlo Park need more markets? We have the super Safeway on the El Camino, popular Trader Joe's, the firmly established deluxe Draeger's, Naks, the specialty store, the 7-11, and the busy Farmers' Market.
The recommended covered markets are not necessary for two reasons: They will take away business from the existing markets and eliminate 62 surfact parking spaces.
Downtown Menlo Park is beautiful. It has the best selection of retail stores, banks and fine restaurants on the San Francisco Peninsula. Let it be.

WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. (AP) -- Wisconsin wasn't worried when it trailed at halftime against upstart Purdue. After all, the Badgers were in a similar situation at Iowa two weeks earlier and came out with a win. So the Badgers skipped the motivational speech some teams might use. "We knew we were going to come out and play Wisconsin football and play smashmouth football, and that's what we do," running back Montee Ball said. "We had a chance to come in, sit down and talk about what the goals were and our mistakes and we got a chance to correct them, and we came out and performed." It was that simple for the no-nonsense Badgers. Ball ran for a career-high 127 yards and two touchdowns, and No. 7 Wisconsin rallied to beat Purdue 34-13 on Saturday. Ball, who got extra work because starter John Clay was a bit dinged up and No. 2 running back James White was out with a knee injury, had scoring runs of 31 and 15 yards for the Badgers (8-1, 4-1 Big Ten). "I knew I was going to play this game, get more carries than I did before in a game situation," Ball said. "I knew the team was going to look at me and expect me to carry the load. I didn't want to let them down at all." Clay was held to 42 yards on 12 carries.
Purdue led 10-6 at halftime, but Wisconsin's defense dominated the second half. Antonio Fenelus returned one of Wisconsin's three second-half interceptions 36 yards for a touchdown in the fourth quarter. The Badgers scored 21 points off the miscues. "We kind of saw their offensive plan," Wisconsin coach Bret Bielema said. "We thought we might be able to get our hands on a couple balls and we talked about being opportunistic. Defensively, I thought our guys really played well in the second half." Purdue quarterback Sean Robinson passed for 141 yards and ran for 31 in his first start. He stepped in for Rob Henry, who sat out with a cut finger on his right hand. Antavian Edison had six catches for 73 yards for the Boilermakers (4-5, 2-3). "We've got a good football team," Purdue coach Danny Hope said. "We played really hard today. It's tough to win when you commit four turnovers." Purdue won the coin toss and deferred, then recovered an onside kick. But a Purdue player was offsides and the Boilermakers settled for a conventional kickoff after the penalty. Wisconsin threatened to score on its second possession, but Philip Welch missed a 40-yard field goal with 5:23 left in the first quarter. Robinson ran for two first downs, then completed a screen pass to Edison that he turned into a 23-yard touchdown to give the Boilermakers a 7-0 lead. On Purdue's next possession, Keith Carlos was stopped on a third-and-3 at the Wisconsin 36, but Purdue went for it and converted. Robinson later completed a pass to Edison, but he fumbled, and Fenelus returned it 48 yards. A 44-yard field goal by Welch cut Purdue's lead to 7-3. Welch made another field goal as time expired in the first half, but Purdue led 10-6 at the break. "Give credit to Purdue, they came in all jacked up," Bielema said. "At halftime, we regrouped, I changed my jacket. I think we just wanted to take a different approach to the second half and relax. I told the guys that we didn't need any superhuman effort, we just need to go out there and execute the fundamentals of what we do." Robinson threw an interception to Culmer St. Jean on the third play of the third quarter, and Wisconsin took over at the Purdue 18. Wisconsin went for it on a fourth-and-1 from the Purdue 9, and Clay powered for the first down. On the next play, Scott Tolzien used a play-action fake, then found Jared Abbrederis near the back of the end zone for a 13-10 lead. Ball added a 31-yard touchdown with 6:20 left in the third quarter, and although Wiggs made a 35-yard field goal to cut Wisconsin's lead to 20-13, the Badgers added a pair of scores to put the game away - and remain in the hunt for the Big Ten championship. "We have great character and we never give up," Wisconsin defensive lineman J.J. Watt said. "We have to remember if we get down, we're not out. In the second half, we played the way a first-place team should play."

Yukon minister, Hinton veterinary office manager vie for Oklahoma House District 60 seat
Fisher, 53, pastor of Trinity Baptist Church in Yukon, is seeking his first political office. He regularly attends meetings of the High Noon Club, made up of about 150 people who meet weekly at a west Oklahoma City gun range.
Menz-Kimble works as an office manager at the K2 Vet in Hinton, where her husband, Shane, is the veterinarian. She, too, is seeking political office for the first time.
Menz-Kimble said her primary concern is education. Oklahoma is near the bottom in public school funding, which she thinks adversely affects recruiting businesses to the state.
She said she is concerned about efforts this past session to reduce the state's personal income tax, which brings in about $2 billion, or about 30 percent of the money appropriated by legislators.
"Reducing taxes always sounds great, but you still have to find a way to pay for things," Menz-Kimble said. "That's been my concern with a lot of bills that have been brought up is that we're going to reduce taxes but we still have to pay for roads, we still have to pay for all these things that the government is responsible for and they don't show the other part of the plan."
Fisher said he supports reducing the personal income tax.
"Every time that we reduce taxation, that puts more money in the pockets of business owners and citizens to spend in the way that they would choose," he said. "It creates growth financially. Companies will be more prone to come in here."
Fisher said he is concerned that while members of the Republican-controlled Legislature have talked the past two years of cutting state spending, the state budgets have increased.
Fisher said he also supports changing rules in the House of Representatives so that committees would hold a hearing on each member's bills.
Fisher said he also would like to see more openness in the House.
"Everything kind of happens behind closed doors," he said. "We need the people to see more. Whenever you close the door, people just automatically suspect that something wrong is going on behind it."

CHESTER, S.C. (AP) - A Chester County man faces a charge of homicide by child abuse after his girlfriend's 11-month-old daughter died with head injuries.
Chester County Sheriff's Major Mary Anne Tolbert says 27-year-old Jeffery Todd Bradley Jr. was the only adult at the home with the baby when she suffered injuries that needed emergency hospital care. The girl died Friday.
Deputies responded to a call about a baby being injured on Wednesday. Officers arriving at the home found it empty. Deputies were contacted about the injured child a short time later by Levine Children's Hospital in Charlotte. The hospital also contacted the county social services department.
Bradley is being held at the Chester County Detention Center without bond.
He left the U.S. Army in May 2012 after nearly a decade in the military.

The fallout over the controversial conviction of the Russian punk band Pussy Riot continued on Tuesday, with hackers compromising and defacing the Web page of Moscow's Khamovnichesky Court, where the three band members were sentenced on Friday.
Hackers posted messages calling for the release of band members and a music video by the gay Bulgarian singer, Azis, on the court's website after exploiting an unknown vulnerability.
In a statement to the Interfax news agency, court press officer Darya Lyakh said that the attackers had "bad imagination" and that security experts were trying to determine how attackers were able to breach the site's security.
The courthouse was recently the stage for the very public trial of the three person punk band, Pussy Riot, who were accused of "hooliganism" for performing a song that criticised Russian President Vladimir Putin at the Cathedral of Christ the Savior in Moscow.
The feminist rock band is known for donning ski masks for performances and expressing criticism of Russia's political leaders, with songs like "Putin Lights up the Fires".
The case garnered international attention and media coverage, with pictures of the three defendants, band members Yekaterina Samutsevich, Maria Alyokhina and Nadezhda Tolokonnikova, confined within a glassed-in detention area dubbed "The Aquarium."
The three were sentenced to two years in prison on Friday, including the five months they have already spent in detention, with judge Marina Syrovoy saying that the trio had offended the Russian Orthodox Church and threatened public order with their performance, language and dress.
The case and ruling prompted protest concerts around the globe and statements of concern from foreign governments.
The British Foreign Office Minister, Alistair Burt, issued a statement saying he was "deeply concerned by the sentencing" of the three band members, calling it a "disproportionate response to an expression of political belief."
Amnesty International called the ruling a "bitter blow for freedom of expression" in Russia.
It was unclear Tuesday who was behind the attack. BBC reported that the defaced webpage contained a statement claiming the "American group Anonymous" was behind the defacement.
Twitter accounts associated with the group including @AnonymousIRC expressed support for the band, but pointedly did not take credit for the hack.
Support for the band ran high on Twitter Tuesday, with users - many of them Russian-speaking - expressing support for the group using tags like #russianrevolution.
Images circulated of traditional Russian Matryoshka dolls decorated to resemble the three ski-mask clad band members in shackles.
Others protested the harshness of the band's sentence. "I feel PussyRiot give one year's imprisonment, not two, in the end," wrote one Twitter user.Follow @paulfroberts

Stomach Cancer Diagnosis
Because stomach cancer often does not have symptoms until it has spread to other parts of the body or has symptoms that are mistaken for other conditions, it can be challenging to diagnose.
However, it is important for stomach cancer to be diagnosed as soon and as accurately as possible. This helps increase your odds for successful treatment and lowers the chance of side effects.
The experts at MD Anderson are among the most skilled and experienced in diagnosing and staging stomach cancer. They use specialized advanced technology with pinpoint focus and reliable outcomes.
Precise Diagnostic Tools
In addition to standard diagnostic procedures, MD Anderson offers endoscopic ultrasound, which gives specially trained doctors the ability to look inside the stomach and examine its walls for stomach cancer or pre-cancerous changes. This test, which is not available at many cancer centers, also allows physicians to view and biopsy the lymph nodes around the stomach.
Because stomach cancer can spread inside the abdomen and often is not detectable by any other means, specialists at MD Anderson often perform staging laparoscopies, minimally invasive procedures to see if tumors have spread in abdomen.
Researchers at MD Anderson were involved in recent studies to differentiate between gastrointestinal stromal tumor (GIST) and leiomyosarcoma (LMS) with near perfect accuracy. This will have wider application in more individualized diagnosis and treatment of stomach cancer and other types of cancer.
Stomach Cancer Diagnostic Tests
If you have symptoms that may signal stomach cancer, your doctor will examine you and ask you questions about your health, your lifestyle, including smoking and drinking habits, and your family medical history.
If stomach cancer is suspected, early tests may include:
- X-rays of the gastrointestinal tract
- Testing a stool sample for traces of blood
In addition, one or more of the following tests may be used to find out if you have stomach cancer, if it has spread or if treatment is working.
Biopsy: A biopsy is the removal of tissue to examine under a microscope. Different methods are available to obtain the tissue, depending on where it is located. In stomach cancer, biopsies usually are performed by endoscopy. An endoscope is inserted through the mouth, nose or an incision into the esophagus and stomach. The endoscope has a tool to remove tissue samples for examination.
Imaging tests, which may include:
- CT or CAT (computed axial tomography) scans
- PET (positron emission tomography) scans
- MRI (Magnetic resonance imaging)
- Chest and dental X-rays
Endoscopic ultrasound: Using specialized equipment, doctors insert an endoscope equipped with a small ultrasound device into the stomach. It produces sound waves that produce an image on a video screen.
Barium swallow: Also called an upper GI (gastrointestinal) series, this set of X-rays of the esophagus and stomach may be used to look for stomach cancer.
Blood tests, which may include:
- Complete blood count (CBC) to look for anemia (low level of red blood cells) that may be caused by internal bleeding
- β-hCG (beta-human chorionic gonadotropin), CA-125 and CEA(carcinoembryonic antigen) assays that measure certain chemicals in the blood
Why Choose MD Anderson?
- Most-advanced stomach cancer treatment options, including minimally invasive surgery, targeted therapies, gene therapy and laser therapy
- Highly skilled and experienced surgeons
- Advanced procedures that preserve as much stomach as possible
- Latest diagnostic equipment and techniques, including endoscopic ultrasound
- Clinical trials of new treatments for stomach cancer

Stomach Cancer Staging
If you are diagnosed with stomach cancer, your doctor will determine the stage of the disease. Staging is a way of classifying cancer by how much disease is in the body and where it has spread when it is diagnosed. This helps the doctor plan the best way to treat the cancer. Once the staging classification is determined, it stays the same even if treatment is successful or the cancer spreads.
Stages of Stomach Cancer
(source: National Cancer Institute)
Stage 0: Abnormal cells are found in the inside lining of the mucosal (innermost) layer of the stomach wall. These abnormal cells may become cancer and spread into nearby normal tissue. Stage 0 is also called carcinoma in situ.
Stage I: Stomach cancer has formed. Stage I is divided into stage IA and stage IB, depending on where the cancer has spread.
- Stage IA: Cancer has spread completely through the mucosal (innermost) layer of the stomach wall
- Stage IB: Cancer has spread to either:
- Completely through the mucosal (innermost) layer of the stomach wall and is found in up to six lymph nodes near the tumor
- The muscularis (middle) layer of the stomach wall
Stage II: Stomach cancer has spread to one of the following:
- Through the mucosal (innermost) layer of the stomach wall and to seven to 15 lymph nodes near the tumor
- The muscularis (middle) layer of the stomach wall and to up to six lymph nodes near the tumor
- The serosal (outermost) layer of the stomach wall but not to lymph nodes or other organs
Stage III is divided into stage IIIA and stage IIIB depending on where the cancer has spread:
Stage IIIA: Stomach cancer has spread to the:
- Muscularis (middle) layer of the stomach wall and seven to 15 lymph nodes near the tumor
- Serosal (outermost) layer of the stomach wall and one to six lymph nodes near the tumor
- Organs next to the stomach but not to lymph nodes or other parts of the body
Stage IIIB: Stomach cancer has spread to the serosal (outermost) layer of the stomach wall and seven to 15 lymph nodes near the tumor.
Stage IV: Stomach cancer has spread to one of the following:
- Organs next to the stomach and to at least one lymph node
- More than 15 lymph nodes
- Other parts of the body

"It wasn't so much what I learned at IUPUI, it was how I learned. Don't get me wrong, you learn a lot in new media and informatics. But, even more, you learn how to grow, to adapt, to keep learning..."
- Remarks of Tony Cardinali, IUPUI alumnus and Video Production Expert for Medical Animatics
Medical Animatics is a company formed by CEO Harlon Wilson and fellow alumni of the IU School of Informatics at IUPUI. Their college experience of practice-based education, internships, peer networking, and professional mentoring was the foundation for the entrepreneurial venture, which recently announced that two former Anthem/Wellpoint executives and "angel" investors, Jane Niederberger and Barbara Kew, will serve as chair and vice chair, respectively, of the Board of Directors.
Harlon Wilson, age 38 and a high school dropout, worked 14 years in the medical field, but began to doubt career prospects would blossom without further education. He came to IUPUI, where he earned bachelor's and master's degrees in new media. Here, the world-savvy entrepreneur-in-the-making met younger tech-savvy classmates who became partners in a company that, among other products, creates 3-D computer demonstrations which help physicians communicate complex procedures to patients.
Harlon Wilson's story is a microcosm of IUPUI today.
The "nontraditional" student, mid-career, seeking graduate/professional training, or returning to college after an absence, attending part time, working full time, used to be the majority of our students. But the Harlon Wilsons at IUPUI now find that the campus has become very attractive to traditional-age full-time students as well.
This fall, 71 percent of our students are full time—up from 57 percent in 2000—a reflection of IUPUI's national reputation as a campus where undergraduates find outstanding programs—service learning, undergraduate research and creative projects, learning communities, and first-year experiences—that lead to successful degree completion and well-prepared alumni for Indiana's workforce.
And, just as Harlon Wilson and his fellow-graduates-turned-partners, are all central Indiana natives, 97 percent of our students are Indiana residents.
Although the start of the fall semester brings an extra measure of excitement to life at IUPUI, it has not been an uneventful summer. IUPUI has been much in the news.
The Chronicle of Higher Education published "Thinking Locally, Acting Globally," featuring IUPUI's international partnerships—most prominently the AMPATH collaboration on HIV/AIDS with Moi University in Kenya—but also programs in Mexico and China. Incidentally, the Academic Model for the Prevention and Treatment of HIV/AIDS, as our multidimensional effort is known, has been nominated for a Nobel Peace Prize, along with its founder, "retired" physician, Dr. Joseph Mamlin.
John Krauss and his colleagues from our Center for Urban Policy and the Environment will provide expert analyses for the bipartisan Indiana Commission on Local Government Reform, appointed by Governor Mitch Daniels. It is cochaired by Indiana Supreme Court Chief Justice Randall Shepard and former Governor Joe Kernan. Recommendations are due out in a report to be made later this year.
Yingzi (Eliza) Du, assistant professor of electrical and computer engineering, was named one of 33 recipients of the prestigious 2007 Office of Naval Research Young Investigators award. She received a $300,000 grant to develop a video surveillance system for homeland security that uses biometrics (iris recognition) to identify people.
Loren Field and six IU School of Medicine faculty affiliated with the Wells Center for Pediatric Research and Riley Hospital for Children received an $11.5 million National Institutes of Health grant to study the causes of heart failure in children.
Ghassan Kassab, who holds the Thomas J. Linnemeier Guidant Foundation Chair in Biomedical Engineering, received $250,000 in BioCrossroads seed funding for his LumenRECON device, which measures blood vessels when placing cardiac stents.
Professor Kassab and other IUPUI colleagues, such as Ali Jafari, inventor of web-based teaching/learning environments for educators, are among the hundreds of faculty to be highlighted in our Translating Research into Practice (TRIP) initiative. Jafari will be among those participating in an upcoming colloquium on translational research scheduled October 15 at IUPUI as part of "Celebrate IU Week," a series of events including the inauguration of IU President Michael McRobbie.
Watch for details in next month's "Greetings from IUPUI."

The Southern Poverty Law Center celebrated another victory last week as the Jefferson County Board of Education in Alabama voted to lift the ban on male earrings. The policy violated students' Title IX rights because it discriminated against students on the basis of sex. The Board of Education repealed the policy for these reasons, which is a huge victory for students' rights.
The whole process started on April 25 when the Southern Poverty Law Center sent a letter to the school board on behalf of Hunter Mahaffey, a student at Hueytown High School. Having just had his ears pierced, he was told that earrings were for females only and forced to remove them. In a recent article from the Southern Poverty Law Center, Mahaffey commented on the overturned policy.
He said, "I'm really happy to get my ears pierced again and keep them pierced this time. I felt discriminated against when the school made me remove my earrings just because I'm a guy. It's a relief that the school board made the right decision by lifting the ban. Now students have more freedom and equality."
This is not only an important victory for male students, but for other marginalized groups, too. Telling young men that they may not wear jewelry typically meant for female students reinforces our society's rigid notions of gender and sexuality. By making it inappropriate for male students to wear earrings because it is something only girls should do, the school board was teaching students at a young age that doing anything outside of our rigid gender norms is inappropriate. This reinforcement of typical gender roles tells young men that it's not okay to wear something a girl would typically wear because it would not be what we consider masculine. Forcing students into those gender norms is unfair and dangerous to everyone involved.
Sam Wolf, attorney with the Southern Poverty Law Center, said, "This is about more than an ability to wear an item of jewelry. By lifting this ban, the district has taken a step away from perpetuating harmful gender stereotypes that to be acceptable, males must look and act a specific way. Federal law protects students' right to be free from unwarranted sex discrimination, including in dress codes."
Most schools have dress codes for various reasons. Proponents of dress codes say that they minimize distractions in the classroom by not allowing students to wear colors or symbols associated with gangs and by not allowing students to show too much skin. Still others say that dress codes and uniforms can prevent students who come from low income families from feeling out of place among their peers who wear the latest, most expensive trends and, as such, can also reduce instances of bullying.
However, many dress codes are unfair, either because the policies themselves or the enforcement of those policies discriminate against students based on gender, sexuality, body type and a number of other factors. Schools and school boards spend a good deal of time deciding on dress codes that work for the majority of the school's population, but every once in a while it takes a student to bring about change to an unfair policy. In this case, it is a major victory for students' rights.

Cathy C.: That's a good one!
But seriously. A huge victory? Earrings have been worn by men a long time (sailors, pirates, colonizers), make-up was very masculine in the 1700s. Looking to other than white cultures, jewelry, make-up, tattoos and other body enhancement are well-known among those.
How about some real victories: Free education for all, free health care for all, equal pay for equal work, a non-sexist society, just to mention a few that comes to mind.
I'm surprised at a couple of the hostile, defensive, punitive remarks here. We have basically the same bodies we've had for many thousands of years; we still need basically the same nutrition; our social and family needs have not particularly changed; and people of both genders have always liked to adorn themselves in various ways. Let's let people be themselves, no matter what their ages.
A big yes !
What's next? Allowing 6 year old students to sport tattoos? Navel, lip, labia, and penis piercings?
Who cares!?
It is so strange that anyone would waste time creating a ban and working to stop this behavior, which is quite normal in many quarters, when there are SO MANY OTHER issues that might better be focused on.
Piercings in any form,are a grotesque throwback,to ancient tribal days of development. We all should be moving forward,NOT backward!!!
When I was 31 years old I went ahead and got my left ear pierced. I still wear an earring in that ear 21 years later, and since I design jewelry for a living, regularly make and wear different ones. I have occasionally had uptight macho types make comments about them, maybe because I usually wear one that dangles rather than a stud, but I usually just laugh at them, since I spent eighteen years living in Detroit, and am pretty hard to intimidate...
I honestly had no idea anyone prohibited boys or men from wearing earrings anymore. Gee, I thought we left that controversy behind in the early 80s.
Just let the kid wear his earrings if he wants to! Honestly, there's nothing wrong with it, and there are far more important things for the school to worry about like teaching.

Looking to buy a PSD
Hello all - newbie here.
Long story short, I currently have an '03 F150 5.4L V8 4x4 with 118,XXX miles running on hopes and dreams - recently suffered from the typical Ejecto Plug mod.
Been checking out a few 7.3's and some 6.0's as of late. The idea of a diesel has been festering as of late since I can squeeze some excellent milage out of them and just the sheer power of one when you drop the hammer. I'd prefer to stay if the Ford Truck family. I've owned 2 Exploders and my current F150 is my second - I previously had a '97 long bed that was claimed too soon. However the gas motors leave something to be desired in terms of economy and power - my 5.4 is just a dog when it comes to power. It can't brake a tire loose unless I'm coming off a corner. My most recent tank of fuel netted me ~9MPG. Absouletly horrible for a truck that's daily driven 95%
The 6.0 has more appeal - 7.3 is a really big motor and is over kill for me. And yes before you ask I've been doing my homework. I know of the TTY bolts, EGR and oil coolers, coolant and other issues that plague the 6.0. I'm looking to stay simple on this truck - exhaust, intake, and mild tuning. I know these motors can be (and can be made) reliable. Hell some people luck out and get one with no problems.
So first question - If I were to wind up with a 6.0 instead of a 7.3 would one of these two kits work to fix most of the issues? Mainly the stretched TTY bolts and head gaskets? I don't see much difference between the two except for about $100.
Ford 6.0L Powerstroke Complete Solution With Upgraded Cooler

And secondly I've spotted this truck nearby to me. I've been put a little off though - I can see from the photos it has a "CAI" and an Edge tuner on the dash. Should I be leary of this truck?
LINK: http://maplecrestford.com/Mendham-NJ...ruck/14189320/
The reason the first kit is more is because it uses OEM head gaskets which are better IMO and most others will agree with me. I can't get the pics to work on my phone of the truck but the Edge could just be an Insight which are for gauges only. Depends on what brand CAI is being used but that factory intake on a 6.0 is better than most if not all intakes unless you are going for huge power.
I live in jersey as well and have seen tons of trucks posted by this dealer. In my opinion i feel they are always overpriced and not in the best condition but then again I am very picky with my vehicles and they must be clean, spotless, and free of any damage dings or dents. I would try and work down the price if you end up going with this particular truck, but i gotta say it is my favorite color LOL my buddy had a 05 CCSB FX4 in this color and it looked sick. As far as the edge is concerned a lot of guys on here will tell you their aren't the best programmers since they only tune your engine and not your transmission as a good tuner will do. I would get any of the SCT programmers and use one of the reputable tuners like Quicktricks auto, Innovative diesel, gearhead performance ETC. The difference in the tow kits is the more expensive one has the Ford OEM gaskets which are actually better than the black onyx gaskets that the opposing package has. The Ford OEM gaskets are better than the black onyx so, yes, definitely get the more expensive package. Where exactly in jersey are you?
As for the Edge I have a PHP Gryphon now on my F150. Much better product as the guy who puts them out will write you a tune custom tailored to every aspect of your truck. I just never did that as I got lazy - Ran the canned trans tune a few times and used it mainly as another gauge in my pod.
I'm in Oak Ridge - Paramus isn't too far away. Down 23 to 287, all the way up 287 to 17, then across 17 to Paramus. Went to school in Mahwah, and my second job has a branch right by Ikea.
So I decided to run the carfax on this truck - came back with a lot of good points. I'm going to try and check it out tomorrow after work pending the snow isn't horrible. See if I can get an Oasis pulled for it as well or does the Carfax reflect the same stuff?
One owner truck registered as a commercial vehicle
First big record recording came in at 81K - A local Mercury/Lincoln dealer gave it a once over. Brakes, drivability, fluids, etc.
at 82K the same Merc dealer mounted and balanced 4 new tires
89K a Kia dealer replaced the brake calipers
98K same Kia dealer (once again ) gave it an alignment and flushed/changed the brake fluid and flushed/changed the power steering fluid.
Maplecrest took ownership recently gave it a once over and changed the oil. and now it's on the lot for sale.
Go to any ford dealer with the vin and they will give you a free oasis...or post on here and someone that has the ability will get you one

Curriculum and Instruction with a Specialization in Secondary Education/English
The Department of English Language and Literature, in cooperation with the School of EducationÕs Department of Curriculum and Instruction, offers an English teaching field as part of the Master of Science in Education degree (Secondary English Education, grades 6-12). A jointly advised MSEd/English program, ordinarily consisting of 15 hours in graduate-level English courses, will be designed, taking into account each student's background and interests. Throughout the program (and before signing up for any courses in English) MSEd/English students must consult with the English Education graduate advisor (Dr. Anderson). Students are required to complete at least 42 semester hours in English (graduate and undergraduate work combined) to be eligible for the degree; therefore, some programs will include more than 15 hours in English in order to satisfy this requirement. Students must achieve a 3.0 cumulative grade point average in English (including all undergraduate and graduate English courses) and an overall average of 3.0 in the MSEd/English program (3.0 GPA = B average). For further information and specific School of Education requirements for the MSEd degree, see the Department of Curriculum and Instruction: Department of Curriculum and Instruction.

Hollywood has its share of actresses that are woefully bad, but who are the four worst actresses in Hollywood working in movies today? This list won't include any of the thousands of fringe wannabe "actresses" who are working as waitresses until they get their big break (which will never come). No, it's about major big-time actresses who appear in lots of movies while their acting skills are mediocre at best. Which ones seemingly get roles because they are hot and for that reason alone? The list could be quite long, but we'll narrow it down to the top (or bottom, rather) four actresses who do the profession a disservice by polluting the celluloid in which they appear.
Kristen Stewart
The reigning Queen of the
Jessica is a beautiful, sexy woman and seems really sweet, but she's been in some horrifically bad movies. Her most memorable "acting" moment was the dancing cowgirl stripper scene in "Sin City." It was a wonderfully sexy, great scene and Jessica was so hot that she could have set off a fire alarm, but if that's the most memorable moment in your acting career it may speak to your limited abilities as an actress. Jessica doesn't possess much of an acting range and always seems to play the sweet good-girl type. Some of her more awful movies include "The Love Guru," "Into the Blue," "Meet Bill," and "Good Luck Chuck."
Megan Fox
Megan was born in the wrong era; she would've made a great silent film star where she only had to look good and didn't have to speak. However, since "talkies" have been around for the past 80 years or so, the super-hot actress is out of luck. She was thrust into the spotlight when Michael Bay plucked her out of near obscurity to play the female lead in 2007's "Transformers" movie. Apparently the success of that and the sequel lead Megan to think she could actually act instead of being eye-candy for teenage boys. The result was a swollen ego and some disparaging remarks directed at Bay. Long story short, Bay replaced Fox with a Victoria's Secret model with no acting experience for the third "Transformers" movie as though to prove how little Fox meant to the success of the franchise. Since then she's appeared in the awful "Jennifer's Body" and "Jonah Hex" and it appears her career may have already peaked. However, nobody has looked better fixing a broken-down yellow Camaro.

Despite Vols' struggles, USC knows history and is not overlooking UT
Historically, Tennessee has been a nightmare for South Carolina.
The Gamecocks have beaten the Vols just three times since joining the SEC in 1992. However, that same dominating Orange clad squad won't be showing up when it visits No. 17 USC (5-2, 3-2 SEC) on Saturday at 12:21 p.m. UT is 2-5 overall and 0-4 in league play this season and a 17-point underdog this week in Columbia.
It's been a difficult transition for first-year head coach Derek Dooley, who's had to start as many as 10 true freshmen. He dealt with player arrests over the summer and talked earlier this season about having to teach his team better grooming habits after a staph infection broke out in the locker room.
On the field, not much has gone right either. UT has scored the second-fewest points in the conference on offense while allowing the third most. The Vols' strong suit for decades has been the running game, but they currently rank last in the league at 121.3 yards per contest — a spot USC has held the past few seasons.
The Vols have been close in a lot of games in the first half only to crumble in the final 30 minutes — just like last week when they trailed Alabama 13-10 at halftime but gave up 28 unanswered points in the second half.
"The biggest thing we have to do is improve our stamina — physically, emotionally, intellectually," Dooley said at his weekly press conference Monday. "The deeper the game goes, continue to trust in your technique, keep competing and not let anything break down. That's not what we're doing right now. (We're) not playing as confident consistently as I'd like, although there were a lot of times in the game that we did."
However, USC coach Steve Spurrier said Tennessee's problems aren't something to overlook.
"Tennessee has had somewhat of a struggling year but they've looked very good at times," Spurrier said. "Their personnel on defense…is as good as anybody we've played, really. Better than some teams."
Spurrier, who used to take shots at former Vol coach Phil Fulmer when the two were dueling at the top of the SEC East two decades ago, said USC's poor history against UT is still a factor — especially after his team's embarrassing 31-13 loss in Knoxville last year.
"Tennessee's a little bit in a down slump, as several teams are," he said. "But we can't worry about that. They may not be in a down slump when they come in here at 12:20 Saturday."
In a bit of role reversal from the past, it's USC looking to avoid a letdown as it sits atop the division with three SEC games to play.
"They're still Tennessee. They're still a great bunch of guys who play really hard, just haven't been very fortunate this season," USC and T.L. Hanna product Brian Maddox said. "They're very capable of beating us if we don't come ready to play on Saturday."

Intangible cultural heritage inventorying sees results in Argentina
- Tango, Milonga Sunderlan – Villa Urquiza, Buenos Aires
Guided by the UNESCO-trained expert, Ms Mónica Lacarrieu, the inventory team chose, among the different musical, poetic and human elements of the practice of tango, to focus on milongas, the popular evenings where men and women gather in local clubs to dance the tango and the music that carries that same name. From April to November, after having received theoretical training on basic notions of the 2003 Convention for the Safeguarding of the Intangible Cultural Heritage, the team is interviewing a wide range of people and governmental and non-governmental organizations related with the world of milongas. On Thursday 26 September in Buenos Aires the tenth biweekly coordination meeting takes place to plan next steps, analyse and improve the inventorying process, coordinate its work and assess the intermediate results.
This work constitutes the third phase of the sub-regional project 'Living Heritage' currently implemented in Argentina, Paraguay and Uruguay thanks to the generous support of UNESCO/Japan Funds-in-Trust for Safeguarding Intangible Cultural Heritage. It is part of UNESCO's global strategy for strengthening national capacities for safeguarding intangible cultural heritage.

Too Hot For Toast – Toasters in Color
I love a splash of color in the kitchen… and these are almost too hot for toast! Shown here in Red, Canary Yellow, Petal Pink, and Charcoal.
The first Dualit bread toaster was created by a London engineer in the year 1946, and the design was quickly recognized for its sturdy construction, versatility, and ingenuity. Today, the same attributes are found in Dualit toasters. They are still assembled by hand in England, and the base plate of each toaster bears the personal mark of the assembler. Designed for commercial use, the Dualit toaster is built to last with an insulated stainless steel body, variable controls, and automatic shutoff.
The Dualit Vario 4-Slice Toaster combines simplicity and sophistication perfectly. Patented "ProHeat" elements ensure perfect toasting with a radical, new heat pattern while increasing operating efficiency. Extra-large 6″ x 1-¼" toast slots easily accommodate oversized bread slices and bagels, while wire guards automatically adjust to the width of the bread to keep it centrally positioned during toasting.
The unique Sandwich Cage, available as an accessory, also can be inserted in any slot. A large selector knob allows you to control toast browning with automatic shutoff, and a control switch sets the number of slots to be activated. As on earlier Dualit toasters, toast does not pop up but stays warm until the manual ejector lever is pushed up.
- Capacity 2 or 4 or slices
- Output 130 slices per hour
- Power 1800 Watts 120 Volts AC
- Size 14-¼" x 8-¼" x 8-¾"H
- Weight 9-½ Lbs
- Available in chrome, red, petal pink, canary yellow, or charcoal color

One of the larger of the touring gun shows came through town recently; and being the sort of fellow I am, I gladly paid the entry fee and spent a few hours browsing the wares. I've written about my affinity for gun shows before, and I'm often asked by my non-"gun guy" friends to explain my regular attendance. I find my "it's a traveling carnival of awesome" description elicits more confusion than understanding. The best way I can explain it would be through the magic of simile.
Ben is to gun show as:
- Gearhead is to auto show.
- Woman is to one of those gigantic shoe stores in the outlet mall.
- Union member is to ugly mob.
But those of you who find firearms and firearm ownership either uninteresting or appalling would be both mortified and surprised by the goings-on at a gun show. The rows upon rows of firearms and firearm-related accoutrement would mortify you, while the complete lack of hatred and shouted invective would surprise you. After all, the image that the liberals and their corporate media flacks have conjured suggests a deafening collection of goose-stepping whackjobs, backwoods hillbillies and lunatic doomsday prophets. Of course, like every caricature created by the Democrats in their endless war on the Bill of Rights, the aforementioned stereotypes are no more valid than the liberal assumption that black people are incapable of fending for themselves without government assistance.
To be sure, there are some oddities floating through the gun show atmosphere. There's the guy wearing army-issue body armor that doesn't even come close to covering his non-army-issue beer gut. There's the dude hawking EOTech™ clones that are only slightly more believable than Attorney General Eric Holder's Congressional testimony on Operation Fast and Furious. And more often than not there's a guy selling fake World War II memorabilia who hopes you won't notice the "made in China" sticker until after you get home.
But there isn't a lot of yelling. There isn't a great deal of voiced outrage. There are no mobs of indignant women's studies majors waving placards and marching about in no particular direction. In an atmosphere in which the headlines are dominated by ludicrous attempts by liberals to demonize firearms as possessing an innately sinister nature unto themselves, no one was so much as mildly surprised by a gun. With everything from those trendy pink-handled .22s to a fully functional, semi-automatic replica of a Goryunov machine gun, the gun show represents a chamber of horrors to those shrieking Brady Campaigners; yet shoppers and vendors alike were as comfortable as Michael Moore at all-you-can-eat night at the local Krispy Kreme.
There were no shouts of blind hatred for those who don't share the assemblage's political ideologies, no demands for free stuff at the expense of someone else's hard work, no cheers for the misfortune of others, no screams for the maiming, murdering or general demise of anyone. There were no beatings, no stabbings and — contrary to deliberate misconception — no shooting rampages.
There are thousands of firearms and tens of thousands of rounds of ammunition in room filled to the rafters with firearm enthusiasts. If the gun grabbers' slander is to be believed, such a tableau should have naturally progressed to a rolling horde of wild-eyed barbarians and the kind of body count usually reserved for a Third World civil war. Yet even Piers Morgan would have been safer than the crown jewels. At least until he got a load of that Goryunov; that would have sent him running for the nearest "gun-free zone."

Lincoln police have arrested a man after a three-year investigation into a roofing scam.
Charles Lee O'Laughlin turned himself in Tuesday for five counts of theft by deception.
Police say he came to Lincoln in 2010 after a large hail storm and hired sales people to go door-to-door offering repairs. Police say those sales people didn't realize O'Laughlin wasn't going to do the work, and many of them were not paid.
Police believe O'Laughlin conned at least five people out of more than $20,000.
There could be more victims, but the statute of limitations has past to add more charges.
O'laughlin was charged Tuesday.

PAWTUCKET — Graciette Nobre sat next to her tearful mother and other family members on the curb across from 191 Harrison Street on Monday as officials walked in and around the burned-out multi-family that was their home until yesterday afternoon. "I just want to get in there and see if I can get my car keys, and find any of my stuff," she said. "All of my things, my documents, are in there."
NORTH PROVIDENCE — North Providence made quick work of St. Raphael in their showdown for first place in the Division II-West standings on Monday afternoon at Governor Notte Park.
The Cougars used a four-run rally in the bottom of the fifth inning and the steady five-hit pitching of senior Lindsay Cabral to help produce their third shutout victory in as many games, a 5-0 win that took just 70 minutes to complete.
ALLENTOWN, PA -- The Lehigh Valley IronPigs scored 13 unanswered runs to rally from an early deficit and hand the Pawtucket Red Sox their first loss of the season, 14-5, on Monday night at Coca-Cola Park.
Jeremy Hazelbaker led off the game by belting the third pitch he saw for his third home run of the season, and a few batters later, Bryce Brentz launched a two-run homer to give the PawSox a quick 3-0 lead.
The PawSox then upped their lead to 5-1 in the second on an RBI single by Jonathan Diaz and a sacrifice fly by Justin Henry, but things went downhill for them after that.
Frank M. Swistak
ATTLEBORO - Frank M. Swistak, 89 of Read St. Attleboro, died Sunday March 31, 2013.
He was the husband of the late Yvonne M. (Ouellette) Swistak.
Frank was born in Attleboro, a son of the late Frank & Antonina (Kogan) Swistak.
Mr. Swistak, was a jewelry polisher for Foster's Jewelry Company.
A lifelong Attleboro resident, he was a veteran of the US Army serving during WWII, as a Private First Class, as a Heavy Mortar Crewman, where he received the combat badge, and the Bronze Star. Mr. Swistak, was very proud of his military service.
Janusz E. Starakiewicz, MD
WARWICK - Dr. Janusz E. Starakiewicz, 50, passed away at his residence Saturday April 6, 2013. He was the beloved husband of Maria Z. (Nawrocka) Starakiewicz, MD.
Born in Poland he was a son of the late Edward and Stanislawa (Chudzo) Starakiewicz. He lived in Warwick for the past 15 years.
Dr. Starakiewicz was a Pathologist and Director of the Blood Bank at Pawtucket Memorial Hospital.
He received his Medical Degree from Jagielonian University in Krakow, Poland and served his Medical Residency at Brown University.
Arthur A. Boudreau
PAWTUCKET - Arthur A. Boudreau, 99, died peacefully on Saturday, April 6th at the Jeanne Jugan Residence, surrounded by his loving family. He was the beloved husband of the late Beatrice (Cadieux) Boudreau to whom he was married for 60 years until her passing.
Michelle C. Regan
ATTLEBORO - Michelle C. Regan of Attleboro died on April 4, 2013. She was the longtime loving companion of Alan Krawiec.
Michelle was born in Providence, the daughter of the late Gerard Bouley and Elmira (Gaudreau) Bouley. She was employed at the Memorial Hospital in Pawtucket in information services.
Besides her companion Alan Michelle is survived by her sister Theresa Mewshan of California.
MOOSIC, Penn. — Terry Doyle admits that the Pawtucket Red Sox were playing with house money.
With the PawSox having won the first three games against Scranton/Wilkes-Barre, the main question heading into Sunday's series finale was whether the RailRiders could save face and avoid falling victim to a season-opening four-game sweep at PNC Field.
MOOSIC, Pa. – It appears the Red Sox are electing to take a cautious approach with pitcher Rubby De La Rosa.
The fifth member of Pawtucket's starting rotation will make his first start of the season at Lehigh Valley on Monday night. Unlike the team's other four starters, all of whom have thrown around 85 pitches, De La Rosa will be limited to about 50 pitches. Graham Godfrey, who tossed two innings in Thursday's season opener, is expected to serve as backup.
"Just taking it easy on him," said PawSox pitching coach Rich Sauveur about De La Rosa. "No rush."
MOOSIC, Pa. – The book on Jackie Bradley Jr. is that he possesses a keen eye at the plate and is a very disciplined hitter. In his first week with the Boston Red Sox, the highly-touted outfielder did little to sway how he's perceived.
Entering Sunday's road-trip finale in Toronto, Bradley had seen 92 total pitches in five games. The 18.4 pitches-per-game average furthers the belief that despite beginning just his second full pro season, the 22-year-old already has a thorough understanding of what is a strike and what isn't.
PAWTUCKET -- A multi-building blaze broke out at about 1:30 p.m. Sunday on Harrison Street. The fire, which was reported to have started in one residential building, quickly spread to a second nearby building and then a third as the fire went to four alarms. There were scanner reports of possible injuries and mutual aid had to be called in to help fight the blaze. The fire appeared to be contained to three buildings and was brought under control about an hour after it was first reported. Firefighters remained on the scene throughout the afternoon. No immediate cause of the fire was given.
PAWTUCKET — Change can be scary...especially if it affects one's ability to get to work, school, or some other important destination.
The Rhode Island Public Transit Authority (RIPTA) has embarked on a plan to change many of its bus routes statewide, and officials say they are trying to do it without causing hardship to riders.
In an effort that began last summer, RIPTA has been doing a "Comprehensive Operational Analysis," a study of where riders live and work, how each bus route is performing, and where changes could be made to improve service.
MOOSIC, Pa. – There are baseball lifers, and then there's someone like Gary DiSarcina.
In short, the 45-year-old is a man who's worn many hats since retiring 11 years go. He's enjoyed successful stints in three totally different realms with all roads leading back to the game that saw him carve out a 12-year major-league career. Thanks to experiencing life as a manager, television analyst and trusted front-office contributor, DiSarcina can speak comfortably on a number of topics.
