Crews tackled a large cleanup early Tuesday after a semi truck overturned off U.S. Highway 97, spilling diesel and oil into the Little Klickitat River north of Goldendale, state ecology officials said.
The truck crashed just after 1 a.m. Tuesday, said Washington State Patrol Trooper Ryan Tanner. Responders estimated the size of the spill at 280 gallons.
The driver of the truck, 51-year-old Visesio Salt of Salt Lake City, was unhurt, Tanner said.
Crews expected to spend much of the day clearing out the truck itself, which came to rest on the bank of the river. The trailer was pulled back up to the road Tuesday afternoon, said state Department of Ecology spokeswoman Jani Gilbert. It had been carrying construction materials and insulation, which were also cleared out.
It's unclear what caused the crash, or how much fuel spilled directly into the river, Gilbert said. Contaminants can also work their way into waterways by seeping through the ground. The Little Klickitat River flows through Goldendale, then joins the Klickitat River to the west before emptying into the Columbia River near Lyle.
The spill happened about 10 miles above the Columbia, Gilbert said. Crews couldn't say what the spill's full impact would be Tuesday, she said.
"Any spill is bad, and it affects the ecosystem in some way," Gilbert said. "We don't like to see it happen."
New Legend Trucking, which owns the truck, hired contractor National Response Corp. to lead the clean-up effort. Workers used absorbent boom and other pads to soak up as much diesel and oil as they could, Gilbert said, replacing them about every hour.
The ecology department operates a Spills Program that helps coordinate responses to hazardous material spills across the state. The department urges people to call two phone numbers in the event of a spill, regardless of size — the Washington Emergency Management Division at 1-800-258-5990 and the National Response Center at 1-800-424-8802.
Under Washington state law, all hazardous material and oil spills must be reported by the spiller.

Back Pain
Posted in the Chronic Pain Forum
United States
#1 Mar 18, 2014
I have pain in my back from bulging disks and I have been to the ER and they tell me to call my family physician and my family physician tells me to get the pain med from the ER. Why should I do?
Since: Jan 12

#2 Mar 18, 2014
Ask your family doctor for a referal to an MD specializing in pain management that's your best bet and my advice. Not too many GP's are willing to write prescriptions for pain meds long term these days and an ER can't help you in the long run either. Good luck...

First, get a new family physician. Bulging discs tend to be a "chronic" problem, not an emergency. It's very weird and against standard accepted protocol for a primary care doc to tell a patient "go to the ER" as an answer to managing chronic pain. Most, if not all, of the medical field frowns upon "misuse" of the emergency room.....a lot of people with no insurance tend to use the ER like a free walk in. Which causes a hike in insurance premiums, which causes a drop in insured people, which creates a cycle.
Start asking/calling around for a pain specialist. Depending on where you live, this may not be easy, actually it most likely won't be easy, but most of us had to go thru it at some point. I actually had ZERO issue getting into a legit pain management clinic, one of the maybe 10% that DIDN'T and WON'T get shut down.... My issue was finding a doctor(primary care) that would simply listen and order x rays / MRI s.... that's all I asked for, a diagnosis, but it took me almost a year to find a doc that didn't mind sending me for testing. Once the results came back, I didn't even ask, he just wrote up a referral for me.
So just be prepared to do some calling around, find out what's needed (typically a referral, MRI/or CT scan, and a prescription history), and try to find a doc that specializes in chronic pain. Many offer "consultations", which would be cheaper than a regular visit, and let you get a feel for the doc, and if you feel comfortable with him/her. A good doctor will usually want you to at least try methods of treatment other than pain meds - a tens unit, physical therapy, epidural block, etc.... a multi-dimensional approach.
A good doc will also be willing to listen. Things to look out for : an office waiting room jam packed with patients, a line that goes out the door, patients being called back then leaving 3 minutes later, van loads of "patients" that just happen to all know each other, all need meds, and decided to carpool from out of state. That would be a pill mill, and it would also mean it's most likely getting shut down soon, not to mention chain pharmacies like Walgreens and CVS usually know the names of these docs and won't fill your script(s).
Good luck :)
If you have any other questions or need any advice, there are a few good people around here that can probably help .(As in advice, I mean)

In FL, primary care docs aren't allowed to prescribe even 5mg hydrocodone for more than one month. It's a relatively new law, I believe from 2012. I remember seeing it on the news, and for once they were actually portraying the story on the side of the patient! They interviewed a few patients, but one stood out to me and I still remember her story. She was an elderly lady and had diabetes that caused neuropathy in her feet. Her primary care doc has her on 5mg hydrocodone - I believe 4x' s daily - and had been prescribing her that for like 20 years. He had to tell her that with the new law, he was no longer able to write her script, and that she had to go to pain management. But the thing is, not many insurances cover pain management - they'll cover procedures like an epidural block, etc, but not monthly visits). She was on Medicare& Medicaid, and couldn't even find a doc (at that time anyways) that both specialized in pain management AND took her insurance. All that hullabaloo for 5mg of hydrocodone, which, Unless you count tramadol, that's the weakest scheduled pain med!!
It's such a load of BS what people have to go through just to have their pain at a manageable level to lead a somewhat fulfilling life!

Most GP's can't or won't prescribe C-II drugs long term anymore because of the hassle they get from the DEA and State agencies questioning their prescribing practices, I can only imagine that in Florida things are worse! My secondary insurance has never had a problem with me changing over to a pain management physician in fact I think they prefered it. This way they have a trained certified specialist validating the need for the use of these types of medications. My primary insurance now because of the disability is Medicare and they pay the bills from my PM as they get them so it's definately not a problem with them.
Now if I try and slip a massage session in (which helps btw) they'll both bounce that back real quick! ;)

Jokes aside, I think they should approve a deep tissue or trigger point massages, if a doc refers you. As far as non med therapy, deep tissue massage is the best, at least for me and my conditions. Besides the pinched nerves and permanent muscle spasm I have, the scoliosis makes it so one side of my back has muscles sorta pulled more taut than the other side. So my left side of my upper back/neck and traps are always super tight. I pull a muscle on the regular.
I haven't had a massage in almost a year! I need strong hands too, all the knots are hard to work out. Despite my spinal conditions, it's actually my muscles/nerves that cause me the most pain.

Trigger point massages, or injections?
Nothing can stop the one spasm. It's literally permanent. I never knew that existed until my MRI said so, lol. But it can be temporarily tamed. The other spasms or knots however, can be loosened. When the one spasm flares real bad(I'm talking tears- actually crying, not just tearing up ), I'll have J massage it really hard, sometimes I'll bruise from how much pressure has to be applied to relieve the pain. Only problem is he hurt his hand several years ago, completely sliced through the tendons, and can only use the pressure I need for so long before his hand cramps. Lol, I left that comment wide open for jokes

House calls?
Sounds expensive.
And just because I was talking about them, doesn't mean I actually get them.
A man can dream though.
Another round, Joe?

Manish Tulisyani played 'Dhruv' in Sony's 'Chajje Chajje ka pyar and was seen portraying a boy next door who falls in love with his best friend. But, if you were to meet Manish now, you would be in for a shock – He has bid adieu to chocolate cute looks and he has embraced a new macho look!
Manish is keen on exploring new looks and loves experimenting. Manish recently shot new pictures of himself, adorning different looks.
When we spoke to Manish, he said-"I like to see myself supporting new looks. Same style gets very monotonous. So, if I want to see myself in a beard and long hair, so be it".
We have to meet Manish in real life, how would he be –"I'm all about balance. I like having fun and enjoying life. I'm a lot like Dhruv, but then I do have a serious streak in me. You need to be serious to take important decisions in life".
Well, we definitely look forward to seeing Manish back on screens again!

Thunder 126, Clippers 85
Observations, news and notes from Wednesday's 126-85 win……..
* D.J. White finally showed how much of an impact he could have on the boards. His three blocked shots weren't half bad either.
* Earl Watson's final three games were truly….(wait for it)…..amazing. OK, so I went to far. But I think his averages of 12.3 points, 8.7 assists and 4.7 rebounds more accurately depicted the type of player he really is.
* With 26 points tonight, Kevin Durant finished sixth in the league in scoring at 25.3 per game.
* Shaun Livingston returned to the place where it all started for him and delighted the Los Angeles Clippers' fans. He had six points, seven rebounds, two assists, one steal and zero turnovers in 33 minutes. Nice gesture by (full-time) head coach Scott Brooks to give him the starting nod in his return to L.A.
* Speaking of Brooks, allow me to clear up something from Wednesday's editions of The Oklahoman. Russell Westbrook was not and is not opposed to Brooks. He was simply saying that the decision was not up to him and never gave a firm answer one way or the other. But I know for a fact that Westbrook enjoys Brooks as a person and as a coach. In fact, while I was interviewing Brooks before the game, Westbrook gave his coach a hard five as he walked by.
* Westbrook played in all 82 games. The only other rookies to pull the feat: Luc Mbah a Moute, Mario Chalmers, Jason Thompson, Marc Gasol, Brook Lopez and O.J. Mayo.
* Since I'm on rookies, thought I'd mention that I'm turning in my ballot for 2008-09 awards in when I wrap this up. My three-man ballot for the ROY award will read, Derrick Rose, O.J. Mayo and Brook Lopez.
* The Thunder flew back to OKC following the game and will meet the media bright and early Thursday morning before having exit interviews with Brooks and Presti and taking off. We'll flood the session and collect lots of goodies one last time.
* Of all the things Brooks experienced in this historic Thunder season, the one thing he'll remember most is how his players stayed strong throughout it all: "We all stayed together," Brooks said. "The fact that they continued to work and push each other and get each other better, that's what I will remember this year."
* Durant told me before the game that he's going to be more committed to a strenuous off-season workout schedule, one that includes lifting four or five times a week and eating three to four meals a day. Can't wait to see him in October.
* Clippers coach Mike Dunleavy on the game…."I am not going to sugar coat it. Tonight's game was the icing on the cake that is this season, and it was the worst possible way to end a season. In 30 years of coaching and playing, it is the worst I have seen."

Dr Menkes took the time to talk with me about it and we've started a game plan to try to get rid of it. I had inquired about a cosmetic procedure and he gave me his honest, professional opinion to not bother with the cosmetic procedures.

I was always embarrassed about my large legs; now with lipo and cellulaze, I feel better than I was even at 20 yrs old! This is the best money I have ever spent, and it was for myself, and to think it took me 3 yrs to get up the courage to do it. My clothes fit so much better, and it's only been a month. Your team is so supportive and caring. Everyone from Dr. Menkes, nurses, and staff are so kind and always there to help and answer any questions. I cannot thank you enough!"

"A big thank you to Dr. Menkes. Your encouragement and support helped me make the decision to have a chin and partial facelift. It's been about 2 months since my procedure, and oh I love the results. When I look in the mirror, I see the woman I was intended to be. Gone are the jowls which made me look like my son's bull mastiff. The responses from friends and strangers are amazing. I went to get my taxes done, and my accountant was amazed at how refreshed and unstressed I looked. His secretary insisted it must be my new hairstyle. Other responses included. "Oh my gosh, you look way too young to be retired." And, "I can't believe how youthful, rested, and calm you look. Retirement has done wonders for you."(It makes me wonder what I must have looked like before the cosmetic enhancement.) I don't consider myself to be vain, but I love passing by a mirror and peeking at my reflection. Dr. Menkes is truly an Edward Scissor Hand, and you, Karen, are the angel that coordinates the wonderful results. I am very grateful to the doctor, you, and his entire staff."
" Dr. Soohoo and staff were very helpful, courteous and professional. I was seen within a reasonable time. I was called the day before to move my appt. up so I would not have to wait too long.
Dr. Soohoo treated my problem and answered my questions clearly and succinctly. I appreciated this very much! "
Office so nice and clean.
Receptionists & Nurses very professional and lovely. Dr. Menkes is numero UNO doctor. "
" Dr.Menkes approach to my problems. "
" Dr Menkes is direct and to the point "
" Dr Soohoo is very knowledgeable "
"My procedure (mini facelift and upper eyelid lift) had minor discomfort. I was impressed with how Dr. Menkes' staff worked hard to ensure that I was comfortable during the entire procedure. As a result, the time went by quickly, and I was very relaxed throughout. In terms of overall discomfort, I'd much rather have more cosmetic surgery with Dr. Menkes, than some upcoming dental work! Thanks again to your entire staff for helping to make this go so smoothly, and for the great results! I had a wonderful experience at your Clinic. Rachel administered the IPL to my face and neck. The results are a great improvement. The redness on my neck has almost completely disappeared. I can go out with my shirt unbuttoned, and have no concerns. My face is also very much improved, the cheek redness is only visible when I'm working in the sun, and most everyone else has color then too. I greatly appreciate the comprehensive time and care spent. I highly recommend this Clinic and its doctors to anyone interested in the best professional knowledge and care the Bay Area has to offer. I will definitely use the Clinic again for all my further treatments. My business associates would do well to take advantage of such a top rate practice. I highly recommend this Clinic to anyone wishing to look their best, in front of, or behind the camera."
Television Producer / Director
"I love that Dr. Soohoo gets to the point and makes a plan. The visits are quick but not rushed.
I live in Los Gatos and know I have many choices here for care. I do not mind making the drive to the Menkes Clinic because I feel the office is State of the Art and very efficient. "
"Dr. Menkes; Very informative, talks me through his thought process, and is open to suggestions. He also works very swiftly and I have not had to wait for extended periods of time."
"She was very thorough and informed. She is very upbeat and explains things in a way that a lay person can understand."
"Quick and complete. Got the answer to my problem and the problem corrected."
"The staff was friendly and professional. The environment was very clean. The nurses are very helpful.
I am a new senior patient who was referred by Dr. Caroline Stratz. I am very happy with Dr. Soohoo. I would like to receive a print-out after my visit which would summarize all of the procedures done so that I can have a good record to check my Medicare Insurance billings with."
"Very professional and complete."
Mitchell & Enrichetta
"Warm greeting by the friendly knowledgable staff, then quick attention to my term needs. I appreciate the courteous medical practice and actions you took."
"We were referred by our pediatrician. Dr. Soohoo is very knowledgeable, and put us at ease right way."
"Precise and definitive answers!"
"All of the staff, and particularly Mary Rozelle were very noticeably interested in providing my father (the patient) with the best possible care. While we had to wait quite a while past our scheduled appointment time Mary and Dr. Menkes answered all of our questions and made every effort to attend to my father's medical needs."
"Professional Attitude."
"Effective, thoughtful, thorough treatment. Friendly, practical manner. I will be back."
Richard J.
"Everyone took their time. I felt listened to and had my questions/concerns addressed in empathetic detail. Wonderfully nice people. I felt really comfortable and that I would be in safe hands! :)"
Pam E.
"Dr soohoo is great! Fast and so helpful!"
Andrea R.
Ane's comments on what she liked about her appointment with Dr Soohoo: "Time, knowledge."
"Was Great. Doctor looked me over and assured me I had no problem."
"I was preparing to move to a tropical location and didn't want to be self conscious about my arms in bathing suits and sleeveless tops. The procedure was really easy, not at all painful. Afterwards, I only took Tylenol the first night. I'm so thrilled with the improvement in just 10 days. I know my arms will continue to improve over the next few months, but I'm already more confident about my new wardrobe options. Great job by Dr. Menkes and I received wonderful care by the entire staff!"
"Thanksgiving is here! Gone is the turkey gobbler! Yes I did it, at age 70, I decided it was time. After having a few consultations with doctors who wanted to change my entire face and put me under general anesthesia, I decided on Dr. Menkes because no one tried to talk me into other procedures and no general anesthesia. All went so well, the staff was so supportive and I am very happy with the results. I'd be happy to share my experiences."
"My mini-lift had amazing results. My jowls were gone, jawline is now defined and lifted. The Fraxel erased the lines around my mouth. I look and feel years younger. I only wish I had done it sooner."
"Dr. Menkes and his entire staff make a world of difference from start to finish—making cosmetic surgery more pleasant and easier than I ever expected. Customer service and satisfaction are second to none—it feels like a "big family" who truly care about their patients. The post-up flowers "the best is yet to come" was a very special touch and appreciated. Thank you very much!"
"Fabulous! Did not have to go into hospital. Clean surgical office with great nursing and attendants team. Dr. Menkes has a great "bedside" manner, making you feel comfortable."
"Dr. Menkes suggested Sculptra for me and I was reluctant to try it but did. It has really improved my facial appearance after three sessions! Thanks Dr. Menkes."
"Deciding to do the lipo and BOTOX® was one of my best decisions. Dr. Menkes and his staff were very knowledgeable, courteous, friendly and supportive in pre-and-post procedures. They are keen on following up and objectively evaluating results and explaining all the available options. Thank you Dr. Menkes and staff."
"My daughter's wedding was 5 months away and I needed to look my best for all those pictures that would be taken. I am 60 years old and noticed a lot of volume gone from my face. I decided to have Sculptra treatments by Dr. Andrew Menkes and I'm so glad I did! Pictures were taken before the treatment and I had 3 vials the first visit. 5 weeks later, on my follow-up visit, the pictures were brought up on the computer so we could compare the difference. It was unbelievable! I had to look twice in the mirror and back at the computer because I couldn't believe how dramatic the results were. My temples, areas around the nose, mouth and cheeks were obviously filled out. I had a 4th vial that day and after several weeks my younger look was amazing. I am getting so many compliments on how great I look – even from the guys in the office! They thought I lost weight or did something different with my hair! It's wonderful!
Sculptra's gradual results are so subtle and gave me the confidence I needed to step in front of the camera! Of course the product is nothing without the artist – Dr. Menkes. His skill and knowledge of Sculptra is exceptional. I highly recommend Sculptra and Dr. Menkes. Together they are a genie in a bottle!"
"Thanks so much for the special treatment I received when I had my 'Menkes Miracle Makeover."
"My friends think I look great. My family is amazed at how my attitude has changed and I feel like a new person."
"My liposuction procedure was a great success. I checked around and Dr. Menkes was someone I could really put my faith in. It all paid off. I feel so much better about myself now."
"Thank you for your wonderful care and the new body."
"Thanks to Dr. Menkes, my eyelift surgery not only improved my vision, but also improved my personal appearance. I'm very pleased."
"Dear Front Desk, Lily, Melony, Rachel, Karen, and Megan: I just wanted to thank you for all your patience, understanding, sympathy and dedication."
"I went to a Labor Day Barbecue at a neighbor's home. I was talking to a lady about how expensive it was living in the bay area. I told her in 3 years I was going to retire and move to Austin, Texas. She said, Oh, I hope you have enough savings because you won't be able to collect social security until your 62! And I said "I'll be 62 in three years!" She said, "No way, I thought you were around my age", which is 46. Thanks Dr. Menkes. "
"I wanted to personally thank everyone for making my procedure an overall great experience. More important, you far exceeded my expectations relating to my results. To say the outcome is amazing is an understatement."
"I must say I was nervous when I first contemplated surgery with Dr. Menkes. Would it hurt? Would I look afterwards like I'd had plastic surgery? The answer to the latter is "NO"; no one can tell anyone has done anything. Dr. Menkes' work is careful and subtle. The results are very natural."
A Happy Patient

Ireland, a country known for its exceptional hospitality, welcomes all those who are yearning to learn English. With many language schools peppered throughout Dublin and the countryside, there are plenty of places to teach English.
As a destination, Ireland is exceptional. With its friendly people as well as gorgeous countryside, it is easy to feel at home here. Dublin, the capital city, has the feel of a major metropolitan city but on a smaller scale. For a more quaint, typical Irish city, head west to Galway. Be sure to explore the country's natural wonders from the Cliffs of Moher to Giant's Causeway and to check out historical sites such as Kilmainham Gaol and Blarney Castle.
While an island, it's quite easy to travel to mainland Europe. Airports are located in Dublin and Shannon (one hour from Galway) and provide relatively inexpensive access to the mainland. For a quick daytrip to the UK, Belfast is easy to reach by car or take the ferry from Dublin to Cardiff, Whales.
Job Types
Private Language Schools:
Most of the English teaching in Ireland takes places in private language schools based around Dublin. Schools tend to cover general English lessons as well as Business English. Expect to teach about 25 hours a week. Additionally, the summer months are usually catered to children and teens.
Private Lessons:
You can also advertise your services to teach private lessons on websites such as Gumtree, which is similar to Craigslist.
Finding a Job
When and Where to Look for Jobs:
As Ireland is a relatively small country, the majority of the work will be focused in Dublin. However, there are a few schools scattered about Galway and Cork if you prefer to be out west in smaller cities. Marketing English in Ireland is a good place to start researching language schools to apply to. This is a collection of about 40 schools that cater to teaching English and is organized by location. Additionally, International House has school locations both in Dublin and in Cork.
You will be required to have a Bachelor's degree in addition to a TEFL or CELTA certificate. It is possible to receive these certifications online before you leave. However, it is probably in your best interest to take a life classroom course as practice teaching is incorporated into your coursework. It is possible to find those courses in your home country or in Ireland. Some schools, such as International House, will also require a year of teaching experience. Consider tutoring English at home before you leave.
Work Visas:
Members of the European Union are not required to receive visas. However, non-EU members must be in possession of a work visa before applying for a job. It is the responsibility of the teacher to procure a visa as the schools will not sponsor non-EU visas.
For Americans, it might be worthwhile to apply for a visa through an organization such as USIT. This organization will help with the visa application as well as provide support and social gatherings while in Ireland.
Need to Know
Salary & Cost of Living:
As a member of the EU, and like most developed countries, there is a high cost of living. Prices for rent will naturally be higher in a big city like Dublin ($370-$530) and will be less in the smaller cities of Galway and Cork. You will be required to find your own housing. A great resource to search on is Daft.
If you are only working the 25 contract hours your school allows at $20/hour, you'll end up making just enough. Therefore, it's best to supplement your hours with private lessons. Additionally, you might want to consider a homestay or a situation in which you exchange housework for a room. Check out HelpX to find a home, guest house, or hostel in which you can exchange a few hours of work a week for room and board.
Depending on how much you want to work and how frugal you are with your money, you can travel and save during your time in Ireland.
Classroom & Work Culture:
Be prepared to teach English to a whole slew of cultures, particularly those from Asia. As with any profession, it's important that you remain professional and confident while in the classroom. However, make sure to have fun! This will ensure that your students, as well as you, enjoy their time with the English language.

Thank you all for your kind words. Two and a half months left before our Disney vacation. We cant wait. Just have to confirm the dates with my wife and book it through our Disney Vacation Specialist. We get excited every time our vacation approaches this one will be the best yet as it will be our first at a Deluxe Disney resort and the one that we are considering buying into. We will definitely be taking the DVC tour again while we are there getting the feel for what is available from Disney Directly as we are getting very close to pulling the trigger on our membership. The only question is whether we go through Disney or go through the resale market to do so.
Currently I am leaning to the Resale market at this time. The Timeshare Store states that by purchasing through the resale market only restricts your membership by not allowing use of points towards Disney Adventures, Disney Cruise Line,and the Disney Concierge collection of hotels and resorts. Apparently all of the addition all resorts are available for points usage. Buying through the resale market will allow us to purchase more points at the resort that we prefer. Currently that is Saratoga Springs Resort and Spa.

I'm 36 weeks & 5 days pregnant, when do most women loose their mucus plug?

Everyone and every pregnancy is different; some women lose their mucous plugs a couple weeks before labor begins, some lose it while in active labor. Yes, you can dilate before losing it, too.

The incident of two Italian marines allegedly shooting dead two Indian fishermen off Kerala's coast in February and the subsequent legal and diplomatic issues made headlines throughout 2012, which also saw many developments on the state's political arena.
Coming to power with a wafer-thin majority in 2011, the Congress-led UDF government of Oommen Chandy won two Assembly by-elections held during the year but strutted and fretted on the state's hyper-active political stage often failing to fulfil many of its tall promises.
However, the state's presence in the Central ministry rose to an all-time high of eight with the induction of Shashi Tharoor and Kodikunnil Suresh in the council of ministers in the reshuffle in October. It was a comeback for Tharoor, who had to resign as minister two years ago after being caught in the vortex of a controversy over the Kochi IPL cricket team.
As the politically-volatile state had its usual dose of controversies, the brutal murder of an ex-Marxist T P Chandrasekharan shook the entire state putting main Opposition CPI-M on the defensive as several of its local functionaries figured as accused in the case.
With the monsoon rains falling far short of the normal, the year turned out to be a hard one for Kerala and harder days are in store as it is heading to a grim power crunch and drought-like situation.
The nation was shocked when naval guards Massimiliano Ltorre and Slavotre Girone on Italian ship Enrica Lexie shot dead Valentine Jalstine and Ajesh Pink, who had taken to sea in a fishing boat from the Kollam coast. Acting swift, police took control of the ship and arrested the marines.
Though Italy launched a diplomatic offensive against the arrest of the marines arguing that the incident took place in international waters and, so, they should not be tried in India, the state and Central governments rejected that position. After spending a few months in remand in the central prison in Kerala capital, the marines are now on bail in Kochi as under trials.
The cold-blooded murder of Chandrasekharan near Vatakara in Kozhikode district jolted Kerala and put the CPI-M on the backfoot as most of those 70 accused in the case are local party functionaries from Kozhikode and Kannur district.
Once an ardent CPI-M whole-timer from Onjiyam in Kozhikode district, Chandrasekharan had left the party a few years ago over ideological and organisational issues with the leadership and floated a parallel outfit called

Scholars find cannibalism at Jamestown settlement
It was the work of someone not skilled at butchering, Owsley said, indicating a sense of desperation.
The bones show a bizarre attempt to open the skull, he said. Animal brains and facial tissue were desirable meat in the 17th century.
The archaeologists are publishing their findings in a new book but decided against waiting to announce the discovery.
The human skull will be placed on display at Jamestown, and a sign will warn visitors of the room's content. At the Smithsonian, curators will display a computer-generated reconstruction of the girl's face in an exhibit about life at Jamestown.
Owsley said archaeology is helping to fill in details from a time when few records were kept - details that won't likely be found in history books.
Kelso, whose archaeology team discovered the bones, said the girl's bones will be displayed to help tell a story, not to be a spectacle. Through the remains, scientists traced her likely origin to the coast of Southern England.
"We found her in a trash dump, unceremoniously trashed and cannibalized, and now her story can be told," Kelso said. "People will be able to empathize with the time and history and think to themselves, as I do: What would I do to stay alive?"
At Jamestown, officials removed a large tarp covering the site where the remains were found for visitors to see. Tourists were told Wednesday of the discovery.
"Oh, wow," said Kim Reyes, who was on a field trip escorting fourth grade students from Alexandria, Va. "We all know the harsh conditions they were here in, but I didn't think it was that bad."
Pam Nagle's mouth dropped when she heard the announcement. The Charlottesville, Va., resident was visiting Jamestown with her children, ages 7 and 10, and her in-laws. Nagle said she had never heard any mention of cannibalism at Jamestown before.
"I was really curious whether it was pre- or post-mortem. I was really glad he said post-mortem," she said. "There was a level of desperation, but maybe perhaps it wasn't as severe as it could've been."

Jun 2014 - $24.00
This was one of our favorite places to visit on a trip through Oregon, Washington, Idaho, Montana, Wyoming, and Utah. We really loved this park! I don't know why the other reviewer gave it 6/10, it's absolutely beautiful. I didn't see any algae in the lake, and there is a shortcut from the hook-ups campground to the lake. It's a short walk, cutting between the B & C loops (about a 200 foot walk). The fishing was amazing, with lots of bluegill and perch for the kids. I caught a 5 pound catfish, which was some work to bring in. We backed our 29' travel trailer and crew cab F-250 into our space without any problems, and it was fairly level.
There is a campground host in each of the three loops, and they sell firewood on site for $5/bundle. The store at the front entrance was nice also, with some apparel and some snacks for the kids. There are no sewer connections in the park, but the dump station is right outside the park, next to a convenience store (very easy to access and free). The store was very nice with lots of fishing gear, bait, snacks, drinks, etc.
The park sits at 3,900 feet, so it was very cool and comfortable in June. My wife says that Winchester Lake is her favorite park anywhere - and we've traveled about 9000 miles in our RV! I can't speak for maneuvering around in a 40' rig, as I've never owned one. However, we're about 40' long (truck and trailer) and had no problems getting into and out of the "B" loop. - Loki 1968
Sep 2012 - $12.00
We barely fit into Site #1 with our 40' motorhome because of trees and large boulders at the edge. We would not recommend this park for RVs bigger than 35'. The roads are narrow and curvy to maneuver. We had a site with no hookups and that loop was at the lake. The upper loop had electric but was not lakeside. Unfortunately, the lake was full of algae but fish were being caught. Gas motors on boats are not allowed but ATVs riding throughout the campground are allowed which made for a very noisy Labor Day weekend. There are hiking trails and the lake setting is pretty. There is a free dump station approximately 1/2 mile from the park. The electric loop had clean flush toilets and showers but the dry camp area had vault toilets. There are a lot of day visitors fishing here. Because of the site situation for big rigs we would not return. - nbi600
Jul 2012 - $24.00
Friendly staff! Lots of pine trees throughout the camp. Very clean restrooms and shower facility. Great fishing! Planning a another trip before the end of the season. Money well spent. - ZaZa

Game of Thrones
Game of Thrones Spoilers: What Happens in Episodes 5-7?
With the first three episodes of Game of Thrones Season 4 already in the books, we can now look forward to what's going to happen later on in the season. HBO has just announced the plot synopses for the three episodes airing in May. Here they are!
Episode 5, "First of His Name," Airing May 4: "Cersei and Tywin plot the Crown's next move. Dany discusses future plans. Jon embarks on a new mission."
Given the episode's title, we can assume that Cersei and Tywin's next move is to crown Tommen king, making him the first (king) of his name. Dany will likely be figuring out what she wants to do with Meereen, or perhaps if she wants to move on to Westeros already, while Jon is probably off to Craster's to take care of the mutinous Night's Watchmen who are holed up there, a mission he alluded to in Episode 3, "Breaker of Chains."
Episode 6, "The Laws of Gods and Men," Airing May 11: "Stannis and Davos set sail with a new strategy. Dany meets with supplicants. Tyrion faces down his father in the throne room."
The new strategy for Stannis and Davos probably involves approaching the Iron Bank of Braavos for a loan, since we saw a light bulb go off over Davos' head in "Breaker of Chains" when the idea came to him. Dany meeting with supplicants probably means she's in charge of Meereen at this point and its citizens wants some things from her. Tyrion facing down his father might mean that his trial has begun. The episode's title also seems to allude to a trial.
Episode 7, "Mockingbird," Airing May 19: "Tyrion enlists an unlikely ally. Daario entreats Dany to allow him to do what he does best. Jon's warnings about the Wall's vulnerability fall on deaf ears. Brienne follows a new lead on the road with Pod."
Tyrion's unlikely ally suggests it's someone with whom he's been contentious in the past. Cersei seems unlikely, but perhaps his father, Oberyn Martell, or Grand Maester Pycelle could assist him. Daario asking Dany to allow him to do what he does best suggests he's looking to either kill people or have sex with someone, likely Dany.
Meanwhile, the Night's Watch leadership continues to ignore Jon, and Brienne and Podrick Payne start hanging out in what's sure to be an interesting pairing. Finally, the episode's title seems to suggest either a Hunger Games tie-in or a Littlefinger-heavy episode. We're going with the latter.
Are you excited for these episodes? Let us know in the comments below.
