The playing field is set - and crowded - for House of Representatives candidates in New Jersey's June 3 closed primary.
On the last day of filing, former Eagles player Garry Cobb joined a small rush of others in announcing his bid for Congress in New Jersey's First District.
Cobb, now a radio personality on WIP, will run as a Republican in the Democratic stronghold vacated in February by Rep. Robert E. Andrews, who served nearly 12 terms.
Cobb has the backing of the Camden County Republican Party and made the announcement at the party's Cherry Hill headquarters before a small crowd of reporters and GOP leaders from Camden and Gloucester Counties. The district spans most of Camden and Gloucester Counties and includes Maple Shade and Palmyra in Burlington County.

Dodge Ram has been called by many different names. Before it was the Ram, it had been called 'D' Truck or 'The Adventurer' until 1981. Before 1994, Rams were labeled as Half-Ton, Three-Quarter-Ton or Full-Ton trucks. At that point, the names changed to 1500, 2500 and 3500. What follows is a brief timeline that discusses the other major changes.
1989: All three Ram models were given an improved engine.
1994: For the first time, the Ram Truck took on the 'semi' look, which became quite popular. This year also saw the introduction of the 8.0-liter V10 engine.
2002: Ram's third generation 1500 came with a bigger grille, redesigned interior and an updated frame, powertrain and suspension. The 5.7-liter Hemi produced 100 more horsepower than the 5.9-liter engine of the second generation. The move to an independent front suspension improved the 4X4 experience. Aftermarket Ram accessories also started to gain traction.
2003: The Ram SRT-10, first manufactured in 2002 and boasting 500 horsepower, is named the fastest pickup on earth. The 2500 and 3500 models entered their third generation and gained an improved, heavier duty frame, a 5.7-liter Hemi, new interior offerings and a revamped body styling. While the 1500 had moved to a independent front suspension, the 2500 and 3500 retained the front axle.
2006: Ram trucks received redesigned head and tail lights. The new mega cab added 22" of cab space, which meant the truck could seat six comfortably, and the back row even reclined. The 5.7-liter Hemi V8 was designed with engine variable displacement technology, which improved the fuel efficiency three mpg in the city and four mpg on the highway.
2007: The 2500 and 3500s were outfitted with a 6.7-liter Cummins turbo diesel that replaced the obsolete 5.9-liter diesel. This move added 25 horsepower and increased torque by 40 pounds. The Cummins also came with a six-speed transmission
2009: This year marked Ram's fourth generation, and the truck gained a crew cab that was more spacious than the earlier quad cabs. New options included a Hemi engine, improved suspension and Rambox storage for trucks with a 5'7" bed. This option gave drivers the ability to store items inside the bed walls.
2010: Ram production transfered to a new 'Ram Truck' division. All Dodge trucks, including the Dakotas, were moved to this new division. 2500 and 3500s were given an improved suspension, new styling, more interior options and an improved engine. The crew cab replaced the quad.
2012: Shoppers could choose to add a Rambox to any of the trucks. With the exception of the Power Wagon trim level, the manual fly shift was dropped for an electronic one.
2013: The styling was updated with a new grille and headlights. All trucks came with a standard six-speed automatic transmission. Fly shifting returned, and a new eight-speed Torqueflite automatic transmission became available, which made the V6 model the most fuel efficient truck in its class. Because of improved electronic power steering, the 5.7-liter Hemi gained five horsepower.
2014: For the first time since the early 90s, the 1500 offered an optional diesel engine.

Erin's Vintage-Filled Austin Home
Design Crisis) home is eclectic, yes, but also very sophisticated. Lots of earthy colors anchor the space, while punches of bold hues lend a youthful feel. We love the interesting details that make the space really feel like a unique home, like that fun painted pattern on the ceiling of the entryway, the wallpaper on an accent wall and the home's wall paint color palette, full of rich grays. From Erin: "This is our sweet 60s ranch house, and the place we have called home for the last four and a half years. It came to us with rental beige walls and plywood cabinets, but we were undeterred. Over time we ripped out the kitchen, replaced tile floors, planted a garden, wallpapered, and of course we painted. And repainted. Then we painted some more (big fans of paint here). Now we're moving on to a house with another bedroom, one where two kids and a work-from-home family can coexist more peacefully. But we hope that whoever buys our old house will love it as much as we do. It's funny how a place can become such a huge part of who you are." You can see lots more photos of the public and private spaces of Erin's house on her blog. You can also see Erin's little boy's room that was featured on Ohdeedoh: A Baby Bachelor Pad With A Bit Of Blue.

Milwaukee to host National Governors Association conference
Gathering set for Aug. 2-4 at the Wisconsin Center
The National Governors Association announced Monday that its summer conference will be held at the Wisconsin Center in downtown Milwaukee.
"The citizens of Milwaukee and Wisconsin are excited to host the nation's governors. These meetings are an important bipartisan forum for sharing state experiences and discussing the critical issues of the day," Gov. Scott Walker, a member of the NGA Executive Committee, said in a statement. "I look forward to showcasing Wisconsin to my colleagues."
The conference Aug. 2-4 is expected to attract most of the nation's governors and will focus on issues such as the conditions of the nation's infrastructure and corrections reform.
The conference will lead off with a session on employing people with disabilities.
"We want to raise awareness about how the untapped talents of people with disabilities can contribute to a business' bottom line and define ways both state government and businesses can partner to bring opportunities to individuals with disabilities in the competitive labor market," NGA chairman Delaware Gov. Jack Markell said.
Also Aug. 2, Jeffrey Brenner, founder and executive director of the Camden Coalition of Healthcare Providers, will meet with governors to talk about health care cost containment.
Other topics on Aug. 2 include innovations in workforce training and employment services; veterans; and homeland security preparedness.
On Aug. 3, governors will discuss the nation's infrastructure needs and, later, a session on corrections reform.
On Aug. 4, the governors will discuss cybersecurity, featuring Matt Devost, president and CEO of the Terrorism Research Center.

In Brief: $1.1M estate donation to fund Penn State Behrend scholarships
$1.1M estate donation to fund scholarships
A $1.1 million estate donation to Penn State Behrend will mean 55 new scholarships for engineering students at the school.
The money comes from the estate of Frank S. Palkovic, who earned an associate degree in drafting design and technology from Behrend in 1968. He died in 2012.
Palkovic had requested that his entire estate be used to support engineering programs at Behrend.
The donation will be enough to fund 55 trustee scholarships to engineering students at Behrend each year that provide at least $2,400 per student.
Those scholarships are available to students who demonstrate the most financial need.

It is my desire that this rebuttal to your Jan. 23 editorial, "Why question a special day? Vaughn's comments unwarranted," be only a rebuttal and not a continuation of the war of words initiated by the Amarillo Branch NAACP. I would, however, be remiss in my duties as president of this branch if I did not respond to the Globe-News' eloquent defense of Amarillo's powers that be.
The editorial called my criticism of city officials for their non-participation in the Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. march and program "lame." It depends on what side of the proverbial aisle you're sitting on.
I view this controversy from the perspective of honoring a man who, for most of his all-too-short adult life fought (and eventually died) for the right of ALL people to be treated humanely. Dr. King not only enhanced the lives of African-Americans; he succeeded in helping all Americans recall the wondrous ideals of our Constitution's Bill of Rights, which all American students are taught: the protection of a person's right to "life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness."
We want to honor Dr. King's life and accomplishments and to teach our children, regardless of their color, that America is a much better place because of his life.
From this perspective, I don't think it thoughtless or wrong to suggest that someone representing the city of Amarillo would have been present to at least read the proclamation decreed by the city designating Monday, Jan. 19, 2004, as Martin Luther King Jr. Day.
By the way, if the editorial had noted my statements on this subject in their entirety, it would have shown that I stated at least once that it would have been nice if the city had even sent a clerk to read the proclamation.
The paper asked why the noontime march (which has begun at the same hour on the third Monday in January for the past four years) couldn't have been postponed two hours or so, which would have allowed those who wanted to attend both events to do so.
We could present the same question to those who planned the Rick Husband event. I understand scheduling for the people from NASA, who probably had the day off since the third Monday in January has been a national holiday in honor of Dr. King for more than 20 years. Nevertheless, if there had been a request from the city or the organizers of the event requesting us to push the time back a couple of hours, serious thought would have been given to that. However, there was no such request, nor was there an invitation to the NAACP requesting our presence or participation in honoring Col. Husband.
With regard to my reported "carping" toward city officials in respect to their absence at the MLK events, the Hyper Dictionary defines carping as nagging. Webster's defines it as the caviling of ill temper or finding fault without good reason. If any nagging of city officials was perceived, it was because of the continued questioning by reporters, including those from the Globe-News, giving me no outlet but to answer their repeated inquiries.
I am fond of Mayor Trent Sisemore and bear no ill will toward any of the city commissioners. In fact, I believe them to be fine individuals. But it saddens me to think that many of those outside the minority community believe Dr. King was a hero, but a hero only for those within the African-American community. In reality, Dr. King did much to emphasize freedom and democracy for ALL Americans.
A good message for everyone to read and reread would be Dr. King's letter from the Birmingham jail to the clergy of Birmingham, Ala. Maybe there would be a better understanding why the third Monday in January should be a special day for all Americans.
Alphonso Vaughn is president of the Amarillo Branch NAACP.

The Detective and the Devilby Lloyd Shepherd
From the author of the acclaimed historical thriller Savage Magic comes The Veins of the Earth, a riveting tale of villainy, alchemy and murder. London, 1815: Constable Charles Horton of the River Police Office is called to investigate the brutal murder of a clerk and his family in London's East End. Horton's investigation draws him into the secretive world of the East India Company, which will stop at nothing to protect the secrets of its vast empire. What is the Company hiding, and why are its employees disappearing - particularly those linked to the small island of St Helena? The trail takes Horton and his wife Abigail from the steps of John Dee's house in Mortlake to the lonely South Atlantic, on the trail of a killer who seems to be the very Devil.

The English Monster: or, The Melancholy Transactions of William Ablassby Lloyd Shepherd
Two moments in England's rise to empire, separated by centuries, yet connected by a crime that cannot be forgiven . . . London, 1811. Along the twisting streets of Wapping, bounded by the ancient Ratcliffe Highway and the modern wonder of the London Dock, many a sin is hidden by the noise and glory of Trade. But now two families have fallen victim to foul murder, and Charles Horton, a senior officer of the newly formed Thames River Police Office, must deliver revenge to a terrified populace. Plymouth, 1564. Young Billy Ablass arrives in the busy seaport with the burning desire of all young men: the getting and keeping of money. Setting sail on a ship owned by Queen Elizabeth herself seems the likely means to a better life. But the kidnapping of hundreds of human souls in Africa is not the only cursed event to occur on England's first official slaving voyage. On a sun-blasted Florida islet, Billy too is to be enslaved. Based on the true story of the gruesome Ratcliffe Highway murders, The English Monster is a breathtaking voyage across centuries, from the Age of Discovery to the Age of Empire, illuminating what happens to Britain as she gains global power but risks losing her soul.
The Poisoned Islandby Lloyd Shepherd
LONDON 1812: For forty years Britain has dreamed of the Pacific island of Tahiti, a dark paradise of bloody cults and beautiful natives. Now, decades after the first voyage of Captain Cook, a new ship returns to London from the Pacific, crammed with botanical specimens and laden also, it seems, with the mysteries of Tahiti. John Harriott, magistrate of the Thames river police, is asked to take a personal interest in the security of the ship and its cargo. So when, days after the Solander's arrival, some of its crew are found dead and their sea-chests ransacked - their throats slashed, faces frozen into terrible smiles - Harriot puts constable Charles Horton in charge of the investigation. But what connects the crewmen's dying dreams with the ambitions of the ship's principal backer, Sir Joseph Banks of the Royal Society? And how can Britain's new science possibly explain the strangeness of Tahiti's floral riches now growing at Kew? Horton must employ his singular methods to uncover a chain of conspiracy stretching all the way back to the foot of the great dead volcano Tahiti Nui, beneath the hungry eyes of ancient gods. From the author of the critically acclaimed THE ENGLISH MONSTER. ack flap: Author photo as per TEM paperback. Bio as follows: Lloyd Shepherd is a former journalist and digital producer who has worked for the Guardian, Channel 4, the BBC and Yahoo. He lives in South London with his family. He is the author of THE ENGLISH MONSTER, inspired by the real-life Ratcliffe Highway murders.
Savage Magicby Lloyd Shepherd
'Wonderful ... clever, lyrical, atmospheric and tells a damn fine story' Joanne HarrisIt's 1814 and the streets of London's Covent Garden are at the centre of a dark trade, enticing rich and poor alike with a cocktail of gin and beer and sex. Behind their own fashionable private doors in the surrounding parishes a group of aristocratic young men are found murdered, all of them wearing the mask of a satyr, all of them behind locked doors with no signs of entry. Constable Charles Horton's investigation into these violent crimes begins, quite by chance, at Thorpe Lee House in Surrey, where accusations of witchcraft have swept the village. What connects these broken London men, savage with the pursuit of pleasure, and a country village awash with folklore and talk of burning witches? The answers lie, yet again, under lock and key, in a madhouse for the deranged, where Horton's wife Abigail seeks refuge from her disordered mind. In this world of witchcraft and madhouses, whores and aristocrats, it's a savage magic indeed that holds its victims in its thrall. Lloyd Shepherd's most ambitious novel to date is a triumph of the imagination. His rich cast of characters weaves a hugely satisfying story of depth, insight and exquisite drama.

que upyd sea nacionalista española es, simplemente, mentira. upyd cree que el sistema del estado-nación está anticuado. por lo tanto, no es nacionalista de nadie "ni de los grandes (estados nacionales europeos) ni de los pequeños (regiones españolas)". Palabras literales y usadas en más de una ocasión. Por más que se empeñen ciertas personas, no todo es nacionalismo. No tienes que ser nacionalistas de unos o de otros, se puede no ser nacionalista. Y ésto es lo que se ha dicho por activa y pos pasiva desde este partido. Por lo tanto, decir nacionalista español para definirlo es, simplemente, falso. --22.214.171.124 (talk) 17:51, 18 November 2013 (UTC)

- This is the English version of Wikipedia so it's not really appropriate for you to make your arguments in Spanish.
- I will respond again: because the party itself doesn't describe itself as nationalist, doesn't mean that it isn't. Based on policy, external analysis and now Rosa Diez's most recent articles, it is clear that UPyD doesn't embrace or propose an anti-nationalist or a post-national agenda in any way. It is clear, in point of fact, according to Rosa Díez, that UPyD is "unequivocally national". What could this possibly mean if it isn't that the party is dedicated to the protection and promotion of the Spanish nation? I've provided links to back up this argument. In response, you revert my edits without any attempt to explain or cite sources, and no attempt to build consensus. Simply commenting on my talk page that UPyD isn't a nationalist party isn't the same as trying to engage in debate or build consensus. I will add this comment to your Talk pages as well.

Update added by user Oct 13, 2012
Update; I am now using another company to send money.
Original review posted by user Sep 12, 2012
I have been trying to send money for a 7 days. Every month I send money to a family member in Jamaica using Western Union. (She's 65 & needs the money for FOOD) This month both times I sent online I recieved a confirmation screen with MTCN # & when the person tried to pick it up it was denied. I spent countless hours on the phone for 3 days trying to no avail, to straighten this out.
As a last resort I went to my grocery store to send money last night. Today I get a call saying she still cannot get them to give her the money. At last count I sent 400$ twice & 150$ last night, plus 60+$ in charges. This company is outrageous! Costumer service is the worst I have EVER had to deal with!
(I tricked them & sent the money to a different person & she recieved the money through her friend.)
I don't know what they are doing about fraud, but clearly it is unsucessful. But they are very sucessfull at blocking legit. money transfers! Shame on them, someone went hungry because of their stupidity!
I will find other methods to send money in the future & am contacting a lawyer! I WILL GET ALL MY MONEY BACK! This co. is on the fast track to FALIURE!

The same happen to me sent money to my husband in prison once. It went thru. The next time I was told I no longer can use their services and i don't know why.

Western Union told me my money had been picked up by the receiver when in fact it had not been picked up and when I called Western Union to try and settle the dispute they say they look into it and would get back to me and they never did and they never refunded by 800.00. Western Union steals and is a fraud as well as Money gram. I will be looking into alternatives .2 2 Reply

They just blocked me too, I provided all bills, every single question I answer, and that was not enought, their smart answer was:
"Western Union's Financial Service, Inc.'s ("Western Union") Money Transfer Service Terms and Conditions ("Terms and Conditions") provide that Western Union has the right to refuse service to anyone. We have reviewed the information you provided and have made a business decision to refuse and refund this transaction and any transactions you may attempt to send or receive in the future"
That was the smarter's answer ever!, that's why they have so many complaints... I hope they go down, I hope that people stop using them...

They did the same thing to me, told me I was on a government list and they could not allow me to send. The money goes to the same person every time, apparently it is against the rules to be married to someone in a foreign country and try to take care of them. I will never use them again.1 1 Reply

I used this company every day to send $25 to my homeless son so he can eat. Western Union did the same thing to me--put us both off limits for security reasons. They lost a good customer because of their stupidity. I use MoneyGram now.0 2 Reply

WU may be the biggest in the money transfer business but not the best. Also after being blocked for sending money through their system they call back wanting to fix my good customer status. In no way I ever got a notice that I was not a good customer, Their fraud investigation unit is sham they can't sniff out fraud even if it hit them in the face. Now they are requesting my bank statements, utilities bills, and not only that they want to see the utilities bills of my receiver....not going to happen so taking my business somewhere else and hope their stick keeps dropping.0 0 Reply

I had the same thing happen today. I was ask to go through a 10 min interview where i was interrogated. After submitting to their questions, which were very personal, i was told that if i wanted to continue to use their service, i was going to have to provide my W2 tax returns and well as the receivers recites for how they had spent the money that i had sent to them. Does that sound like your experience. I am with you, They have lost my business...

I agree they put a block on my account andcthe most I ever sent was $100 about a month ago now all I wanted to send was $60-$70.00 .Wake up u Idiots, Im a citzen of the USA , not everyone who needs to send money is sending it for Drugs or Lottery!0 1 Reply

WU are thieves. they are very good at blocking money. also, blocked money disappears as they flag is as picked up in system. so no one can get it back. they are the biggest frauds. BEWARE.3 1 Reply

Same experience here, tried unsuccessfully to send money for 7 days. Wasted countless hours with clueless customer service. I used the WUPay option, which is very secure since you don't have to disclose any financial info to them. Still, recipient was refused the payout, in spite of emails and customer service saying that the transaction was approved and money was available. Then it takes them 1.5 weeks or more to refund the money. I tried to send the money with a local agent, but in addition to my drivers license, also wanted my SSN. yeah right, now way. So pissed, hope this company goes down in flames someday.1 2 Reply

This company sucks! Don't use them. The last 2 times I sent money, they put a hold on it with no explanation as to why the hold was put on it. When I called to find out what was going on, they asked me for all sorts of personal information, made me fax in documents showing where the money was going, etc. Looking back, I should have just told them forget it and just get a refund. Once I was through that ordeal which took 2-3 days, the hold was just released. They never contacted me, it just got released. This was after leaving like 4 messages on their compliance department's voice mail (they never pick up and they don't call you back). So, I thought at least it was all taken care of. Shouldn't happen again because of all the information I gave them. Well, sent another transfer and the receiver couldn't pick it up. They said WU put a hold on it. I called (again voice mail), never received a call back. Called main customer service number and they said the money was available. So, the receiver has to waste time going back again to pick up, I had to spend all sorts of time on the phone, etc. This company is ***. Don't use them. MoneyGram was a little more expensive, but seemed to be more customer-conscious and competent. There are only 2 companies that have really pissed me off over my lifetime - AT&T and Western Union. If enough people just stop using their services, maybe they will learn a lesson.1 0 Reply

I've tried 3 transfers, all get refunded back to me with no reason. I called their awful customer service and went 3 levels up and got an e-mail address to get and answer to the issue. Mailing them now.
Might be worth checking out.

After taking a hard hit or making a big play a high school football player often will look to the stands to search out some family and give them a reassuring smile.
All Cory Waltman has to do is look to the sidelines.
Everett's senior utility man is entering his final season, but he won't be the only Waltman in the locker room for the Warriors on Fridays. His father, Tom is the head coach.
''[Coaching Cory] is pretty special,'' Tom Waltman said. ''It's a pretty unique situation I guess; not a lot of coaches get that opportunity, but I'm excited we have that opportunity.''
For the Waltman's final year together in the Everett program to be successful, Cory, among others, will need to take a step forward from a team that went just 2-8 in 2007.
One of the things that the tandem has in their favor is Cory's versatility.
''Offensively he can play anywhere in the backfield,'' Tom Waltman said. ''He's been at quarterback, halfback, fullback and split end for us. Defensively we put him at strong safety, and that's probably where he's the best asset.''
The younger Waltman is looking forward to the chance to improve upon a defense that allowed an average of 28.25 points per game in Everett's eight losses last year.
''I love playing safety,'' Cory Waltman said. ''I'm a defensive guy. We just need more unity among grade levels. We have such big classes and are kind of individualized.
''We need to come together a bit, and that's what we've been trying to do all summer.''
Though official practices could not begin until Aug. 11, Cory Waltman and his senior teammates have been preparing for what they hope will be a successful sendoff for a class that's suffered its fair share of defeats.
''We had a mini camp [Aug. 5], and everyone already knows the plays,'' Cory Waltman said. ''We didn't need any coaching to tell us to be prepared. We actually have been coaching ourselves right now.''
Now that official practices have begun and his father can step in, Cory didn't exactly say things would be easier.
''It's a lot of fun [to play for his dad], but he's a little bit harder on me,'' Cory Waltman said. ''He's always been harder on me. It's fun, and it has its advantages, but it has a lot of disadvantages too.''
When a father coaches a son, one of the possible disadvantages is a perceived notion that the coach will favor his son and put him in a position he or she doesn't necessarily earn, but Tom Waltman said that's never been a problem at Everett.
''Some people have asked if there's ever been a problem with that before,'' Tom Waltman said. ''I look at it as I need to put him in a position to help this team get better and win football games.
''He's not a selfish player, he doesn't point the finger at any player on the field, and he's a very good team player. That helps a lot.''

'Rio, I Love You' will be first pic to use incentive
Backed by a $10 million fund, the just-launched Rio Film Commission tapped former MPA Latin America VP Steve Solot as its CEO. It also has an annual budget of $1.7 million to invest in such pics, with its first being "Rio, eu te amo" (Rio, I Love You).
Top facility: Paulinia, home to Brazil's largest oil refinery, has since 2006 invested $50 million in the construction of two studios; a theater that can seat 1,400; a film school; a film commission; and a backlot. Three other studios are scheduled to open by March. The town also distributes subsidies to local producers (the production must invest 40% of the grants in Paulinia), but a foreign company can pact with a local shingle to indirectly tap into the incentives. Emerson Alves, Paulinia's secretary of culture, said the town will eventually offer direct incentives to international companies willing to co-produce there.

Murder on Campus a Professor's Rage
An Ambitious Biology Researcher and Mother of Four, Amy Bishop Was a Time Bomb Ready to Explode, Say Colleagues at the Alabama University Where Her Shooting Spree Left Three Dead
The red flags are all so obvious now. But tragically, no one connected the dots until it was too late. Humiliated after being denied tenure at the University of Alabama in Huntsville last March and facing possible unemployment, Bishop, 45—a biology professor and Harvard Ph.D. who trumpeted her Ivy League pedigree—opened fire at a biology faculty meeting on Feb. 12 with a 9mm pistol, killing three colleagues and wounding three others. (Bishop, charged with capital murder and attempted murder, hasn't entered a plea, but her court-appointed attorney Roy Miller says "she's whacko" and will request a psychiatric evaluation.) Since the shootings, disturbing details have emerged about Bishop's life—including the fatal shooting of her brother Seth when she was 21 (see box), and her possible role in a 1993 pipe-bomb incident—that paint a portrait of a woman seething over imagined slights and intent on exacting revenge. "My feeling," says chemical engineering professor Krishnan Chittur, "is that sooner or later she would have snapped even if she'd had tenure."
Still, it was her failed tenure battle that seemed to push her over the edge. As her family's prime breadwinner—her husband, Jim Anderson, 45, stayed home to take care of their four kids, ages 8 to 18—the Braintree, Mass., native sent letters and harangued colleagues in her attempt to get the university to reverse the tenure denial that would spell the end of her $63,000-a-year job come June. (A university spokesman says only that Bishop's work was "not sufficient"; Lynn Boyd, an assistant professor of biology, says Bishop's publication record and mentoring of students fell short.) For Bishop, says her father-in-law Jimmy, losing tenure "was the end of the world."
Standing by Bishop is Anderson, her husband of 21 years. He met her at a science-fiction convention while they were undergraduates at Northeastern University. "They were hardcore Trekkies," says Rob Dinsmoor, a former member of a writing group Bishop attended. "They were a really adorable nerd couple." Anderson told reporters he and Bishop had recently visited a shooting range but now tells PEOPLE, "There was never any fascination with guns." He also dismissed the pipe-bomb incident. He and Bishop were investigated but never charged after a Harvard supervisor, who criticized her work, discovered the bomb. "It was five years of craziness," he says of the inquiry.
Top of mind for both Bishop—who, her lawyer says, doesn't recall the shooting—and Anderson are their kids, the oldest of whom is a sophomore biology student at the university. Yet now Bishop, who could face the death penalty, might never again see her family as a free woman—a bitter pill for someone who saw herself as having unlimited potential. "I feel only sorry about what she's done with her life and what she's done to all those people," says Lenny Cavallaro, who worked with Bishop on a novel. "She has destroyed herself and so many others."

New London — While fishing for striped bass at Harkness Memorial State Park in Waterford on Monday, city resident Domingo Garcia was surprised when he hooked something that took him 30 minutes to reel in.
He was even more shocked when he got his catch on shore and saw that it wasn't a striper at all.
"When I saw it, oh my god," said Garcia of the 53-pound stingray he landed while fishing with his son-in-law Jesus Tirado. He shoved a stick through the fish's eyes to help him haul it to A.W. Marina on Pequot Avenue, where he had it weighed.
Garcia said he had caught a stingray in Puerto Rico before, but not as big as the one he caught Monday. His catch was 93 inches long if its spiked, poisonous tail was included and measured 70 inches in girth.
The stingray "certainly is something I've never seen," said Karen Westerberg, one of the owners of A.W. Marina. She said the warmer waters mean that she's been seeing different species than in previous years, but she's still shocked that someone caught a stingray from the shore.
She plans to send the ray's measurements, along with photos of its body and tail, to the state Department of Energy and Environmental Protection for identification. Westerberg said that A.W. Marina is an official DEEP weigh station and that she encourages people to bring in their catches to be measured, which can provide the DEEP with useful data.
Garcia brought the stingray home and plans to "cook it up." He's eaten stingray before and said the wings are filled with edible meat. Tirado said the meal will be a new experience for him.

Do You Have a Plane Wish List?
Hey guys,
I have decided to start a wish list of planes. The reason I made this list is so that I am not easily swayed into buying every cool new plane that comes out! The other benefit of this list is I now have a better idea of the types of planes I like, and the sort of flying I prefer. In no particular order, here is my wish list:
1. Mountain Models EVA Bipe -$75
2. Mountain Models Flashback -$65
3. Cl-i-max Axon - $49.50
4. Manzano Laser Works Waco SRE - $65 Full Kit
5. ParkScale Models Pitts Special - $49 for Short Kit
6. StevensAreo Ultimate Biplane Price TBD
7. StevensAero MudBug - $30
8. StevensAero Lil Squirt 2 - $30
9. LiteFly Bug - $59
10. Mini IFO - $49
What planes would be on your wish list? Why?
Thanks, Bruce
I'm looking to improve my precision flying skills and have some 3D fun, but I also enjoy building and going fast, so here's my short list:
1) 3D Hobby Shop Extra 300 SHP
2) StevensAero Groove/G-Ride (the Mountain Models look never did it for me, though the EVA is nicer)
3) Mike Rittinger Me-109 Scratchbuild (I wish the plans I ordered would arrive so I could build it already)
5) Scratchbuilt own design pylon racer
Yep, any of those would be great right now.
Great list! The only reason the SA Groove is not on my wish list is I already have one.
Thanks, Bruce
Your list isn't bad, either, especially that gorgeous Waco bipe and the vaporware StevensAero Ultimate.
P.S. SA will be out of town this week and may have a good sale, so my list may soon be one plane shorter
My weakness is I have no resistance when it comes to buying new planes If I see something I like then I buy it, because there's no telling if it'll go out of production tomorrow. I've got a stack of stuff waiting to be built, they are listed below in no particular order. You asked "why", so I added notes in perenthesis:
- Speedwing.net Dart (1/2 built, goal is 100 mph backyard flyer)
- Dave Blum Bd5 & Diddlebug Cessna (high cool factor!)
- Strange Bird SB28 (unique looks)
- .40 sized Rascal electric conversion (we all need at least one big plane in our hangar!)
- The Twinkle (cool looking puddle flyer)
- Voltaire Cube (WAY different looking)
- JM Glascraft Estrellita, Cosmic Wind & Mini Shark (go fast and turn left, with style!)
- Kinkade Park Hawk & Pterodactyl (these things fly great, I have two going already)
- Bullet Twin EDF (3/4 built, design testing)
- 4s Bullet (another design test)
- BMJR Sniffer & Twin Lizzie (old timers make awesome electric conversions!)
- RC Eng. Thermal Charger (had one back in the day, this cool old plane is begging for a modern electric setup)
That's off the top of my head, I know there are others lurking around here waiting to be built as well. And no doubt another dozen must-haves will worm their way into my closet before these are complete! The problem is I want to build each and every one of these, so it's hard to prioritize The two on my desk will get completed first, then comes the hard decision of what to build next! I need to retire so that work won't interfere with my building time as much
First I need to start building my SA RV-4 I have had around
for a while along with the components to make her fly.
Then I would like to start on my 150 model's?
Tyro, switchback? & and then I hope the Hellcat will be for sale
by the time I get ready to build?
I don't think I can go wrong with any of the planes I have
Please bring the 150 switchback & hellcat to us wanted
be builder?????
Since Bill is out of town I doubt very much he is working on the Ultimate. That teaser about the Ultimate has been on the SA site for a while.
Thanks, Bruce
I bought a lot of planes because they struck my fancy. I just want to be more selective. I was just out in the garage where I have many, many shelves of planes. I spied a plain cardboard box, and for the life of me I could not remember what was in the box! I dug the box out and found it was a combat slope glider. Oh yeah, I remember that one! Very cool! Put the power nose on it and its hot liner. Put the heavy nose on it and it is a slope glider!
I am thinking I have plane overload since I don't remember all the planes I have already bought. In addition to my wish list, I also have a build list. These are planes I already own.
1. SA DiddleRod (done)
2. MiniFlash (contruction done - need to install electronics)
3. Goldberg Tiger (done)
4. E-Starter (in Progress)
5. Formosa (On Deck)
6. SwitchBack Sport
7. IFO Mk3
8. Turmoil
9. Fast Freddie
10. Radical RC MiniStick
I made this list because I had so much trouble deciding which plane to build that I would never start on anything! I needed a plan. Left to my own devices I would be building the Switchback right now. But I need to get some quickie builds done so I have a good selection of planes in my hangar.
Thanks, Bruce

I tried listing my planes. I quit at 125. If anybody needed help-----need I say more?
My LHS is going out of business and was selling off his inventory. Notice the words is and was. He is going out of business--he was selling off his kits. They were gone in days. I only managed to get two.
Went to a flea market. Came home with two more--a very old Astroflite kit of a Monocoupe that I never knew existed and a Mini Challenger sailplane. My wife asked me what I intended to do with all the planes in my basement. I told her I planned to get more. I never realized how uncomfortable that couch is--until now
I tend to let the planes come to me rather than seeking out something specific.
- The Beaver looked like a good trainer to get the kids interested,
- An SE5 (no eh) was cobbled up from meattrays because I got interested in that form of building and had a Peanut plan from an old magazine to scale up.
- Scratch built glider with old Windfree wings because a friend inherited them.
- The Ryan NYP was a Guillows kit my mother-in-law found at a garage sale years earlier.
- Parkflyer Pete from FFF because our little group of guys tried club racing.
- Currently in progress is a GWS DC3 I got for Christmas (2005).
Wish list? sure:
- Avro Arrow (probably a pusher from FFF)
- P40 (maybe the GWS one when it comes out)
- CL415 (flying boats are too cool - would like to do this one at 2 meter span or more)
- Mirage2000 (if I ever try a DF, hmm I seem to have a thing for delta jets)
- A bipe from balsa and tissue (the SE5 is gone, scaling up that peanut plan again sounds fun).
My list would be way too long.
LittleBirdz LoLo
Pat Trittle's Connie (yet to be finished)
3D Hobby Shop Yak
AeroLabs Pitts with Symmetrical wings
ParkScale Models 727 (still in development)
Depron Twinkle
Any Seafury of resonable size
Those are the ones I would love to do but don't have kits for yet. There are more but they are more passing interests.

Initially, some were intrigued. Bryn Mawr College, for example, consigned Marc Chagall's ''Violoniste au Monde Renverse'', an early work dating from 1929 that sold in May 1989 for $4.62 million, a record price for the artist.
And during its first year in New York, the auction house reported five record sales of works by artists including Kees van Dongen, Maurice de Vlaminck and Auguste Rodin. ''When I had stock to get rid of, they were a good showcase,'' said Marzina Marzetti, the director of the Urban Gallery in Paris and vice president of that company's New York operations. ''I sold several works of art that would have gotten lost at Sotheby's or Christie's sales. Still, I would never have given them an important painting to sell.''
In Hindsight
As in any business, timing is everything. ''Looking back I realize we started too late,'' Mr. von Habsburg said. ''If we had gone into business five years earlier, we'd be all right now.''
And Mr. Feldman said the owners really had no idea what they were in for. ''We didn't know the auction world well enough,'' he said. Mr. Feldman is credited with creating several successful art businesses, including one of the largest stamp houses in the world.
Along with the struggles of putting together strong sales and carrying a large overhead, the company also faced difficulty in collecting payments from buyers. ''We have been out of pocket for over $10 million of receivables,'' Mr. von Habsburg said. ''A big company can absorb such problems. We can't.''
Internal conflicts, culminating in Mr. Feldman's departure, added to the company's problems. His reasons for leaving the auction house, he said, centered on personality clashes as well as basic business differences. This leaves three men to run the company: Mr. von Habsburg, Osvaldo Patrizzi, a Geneva-based auctioneer who is an expert on clocks and watches, and Karl Wellner, the chief executive of the company's New York office.
New Strategies to Compete
''We have decided to stick to fields we know we are good at,'' Mr. von Habsburg said. ''Clocks and watches, silver and Art Deco. That's not to say that we won't be venturing into new areas. We're planning a sale of jewelry and another of Old Master paintings. The company is also going to hold special events such as exhibitions where the works of art will be for sale and silent auctions.''
''In order to compete, we have to find new approaches to the market,'' he added. ''And to stick to niches where we can supply objects to the public that others can't.''

The pursuit of primary care is assuming olympic proportions. As yet, few physicians are willing to say who should or should not claim this prize, even though most will agree that the word "primary" requires the ability and the time to continue the care of our patients. Practitioners of all sorts, from internists to gynecologists, do provide the primary source of care for at least some of their patients, and in the larger metropolitan areas, it is not unusual to find individuals with well-defined illnesses seeking all of their care from a single, albeit secondary or tertiary practitioner. Since many of these physicians are equipped with knowledge and experience not available to most, it is not unreasonable to expect that, numbers and transportation permitting, patients will continue to gravitate to the single-organ specialist.

The Worship & Song Pew Edition contains music sung by the congregation. Hymns and songs intended to be sung in unison are printed with the melody only, while those intended to be sung in harmony are printed in parts. Most solo parts are included in this edition.
The Faith We Sing was published in December 2000 and has now sold more than 1 million pew copies to more than 3,000 churches. Since that publication date, much new music has been written for congregational worship. This follow-up is available in six editions: Music Pew Edition, Leader's Edition, Singer's Edition, Accompaniment Edition, Worship Resources Edition and Presentation Edition.
Worship & Song distinguishes itself from The Faith We Sing because it contains services, acts of worship, and other worship resources.

The absolute best in Saratoga.
The Roosevelt Inn is a privately and proudly owned resort in one of the most beautiful regions in the Northeast. I have enjoyed the Roosevelt Inn on many occasions for business and family vacations. Whether staying in a luxurious single room or a suite, the friendly staff, personal service and spotless accommodations are unsurpassed. The owners and staff go the extra mile everyday for their customers many of whom are return visitors. Proprietors Sam and Lee along with the entire staff get to know their clients by name and strive to address every need no mater how unique. On one occasion I turned a business trip into a short family vacation. We were surprised to find out that our accommodations had been upgraded to the FDR Suite, a luxurious apartment with every amenity. My wife and children were thrilled.
The amenities include shuttle service, indoor and outdoor pools; sauna and steam rooms, a hot tub, a complete workout facility and you can even schedule a massage. The same attention to excellence is carried over to the Packhorse restaurant, a favorite of travelers and local residents alike. The Roosevelt Inn is five minutes from historic downtown Saratoga Springs. My wife and I along with our daughter and son, enjoy the quaint shops and restaurants, lakes and golf courses and visits to the Saratoga Harness and Thoroughbred Racetracks. When business demands a trip to Albany, NY it is a worthwhile twenty-minute drive to exit 13 on the Northway. Whatever your reasons for visiting, you will not find better accommodations in the Saratoga region. Tell Sam and Lee I sent you.
Roosevelt Inn is the Best
We stay at the Roosevelt several times a year..It is a wonderful place to go for a needed "break" from everyday life. The pool and spa are well maintained and beautiful. The hotel is spotless. The decor is lovely.
The grounds are well kept and the gazebo is an added bonus. The staff is extrememely friendly and helpful. It is our favorite place to stay.
Clean, Warm and Friendly
If you are looking for clean, warm and friendly lodging, look no further.
Great rooms at a reasonable rates, along with an outstanding staff to make your stay unforgettable.
Wonderful Spa
I am happy to say we are returning guests of the Roosevelt. After trying numerous other properties in the area over the years, once we had our first visit at the Roosevelt we were hooked! Besides the exceptional hospitality you will receive from the owners as well as all of the employees, you will see well manicured grounds with beautiful flowers and plantings, outstanding cleanliness of the rooms, exceptional suites (if you're lucky enough to get one) and their spa is just wonderful, beautifully appointed and on the same par as some of the best spas around the country that we have visited. And if all of that is not enough - you must try the restaurant. Again, beautifully appointed with exceptional food. We love the Roosevelt and always look forward to going back.
I travel over 200 nights a year. This hotel is one of the best run, friendliest, and best maintained I've ever stayed in. I would, an do, go out of my way to stay at The Roosevelt Inn.
A Comfortable & Friendly Place to Stay
We have stayed at the Roosevelt several times taking and visiting our son at Skidmore. It is wonderful and we will stay no where else (yes, we tried in town and were not as happy). The rooms are well-furnished. The pool, jacuzzi and work out area is spacious, well-appointed and clean ... always plenty of towels!!! The staff are helpful and friendly. The resturant next store is convenient and the food excellent. When the weather is nice there are even tennis courts where my son & I hit a few balls. The grounds are spacious. Finally, it is a great value. Try it.
Delightful place In Saratoga Springs
Found this Inn just off the interstae. Near gaming, track and performance art center. Room very clean, comfortable and well decorated. Staff were extremely helpful and pleasant. Restaurant and bar convenient.Lots of local customers which is always a good sign.
Friendly and Clean!
Very friendly and courteous staff. Clean pool area with two saunas and large whirlpool. Well appointed excercise room attached. The rooms were fresh and clean. The suites had two TV's with CD/DVD/VHS abilities. Just minites from the Racino and Saratoga Racetrack. Highly recommended. Restaurant food was excellent and atmosphere was inviting.
Great Getaway
Stayed in one of the suites with some friends for a Girls Night Out in January. Immaculate and spacious rooms, well appointed kitchenette, immaculate (new) lap pool and whirlpool and immaculate and comfortable spa treatment rooms. Staff were all very cheerful, accomodating and knowledgeable. Convenient off highway and short drive to Saratoga State Park and downtown. Reasonably priced off-season. Will return.
Fantastic "Home Away From Home" Great Staff & Owners
We have been guests of The Roosevelt Inn & Suites for a number of years. Our first visit proved that this was an outstanding property, with a staff and owners that actually cared about us. We have always been welcomed back with a smile, and greeted by name.
The rooms/suites are well appointed, and very well kept. Any request to the staff was answered quickly and professionally. Grounds are large, and welcome a guest to stroll around them to enjoy their beauty. Great health club & pools.
The lounge and restaurant, which are on the property, serve a very nice meal, at a fair price. Selections are varied, portions large, and delicious!
Location is short drive to downtown Saratoga, and just far enough from Lake George to remove you from the hustle, yet allow frequent visits.
You can't go wrong with this winning team!!!!

Honda, the automaker which once entered the market reluctantly saying it hated diesels, now claims an industry leading turbocharged I4.
The 1.6-litre 'Earth Dreams Technology' unit, available in the English built Civic hatchback next month, develops 118bhp and offers potential fuel economy of 78.5mpg with CO2 emissions of 94g/km.
That combination of performance and fuel efficiency betters anything on offer from any rival, claimed Honda. And it could lead to Civic sales being trebled in the UK next year, led by a huge surge in fleet business.
Low CO2 emissions results in a company car tax rate of only 13% for business drivers and, currently, exemption from annual road tax. Owners who drive in central London will also not have to pay the GBP10 weekday congestion charge.
Until now the only diesel available in the Civic has been a 148bhp 2.2-litre I4. But Honda admitted there was a "mental block" about engines of two-litre-plus in Civic-sized cars.
"Diesel takes 80% of corporate sales in this sector and 64% are engines of 120bhp or less," the company said. "That market is now open to us."
Three of every four customers for the new Civic diesel are expected to be fleet drivers and Honda hopes to capture business from more than 100 fleets. It has already concluded a deal to sell 40 cars to the Motor Neurone Disease Association.
"This is the most important new engine from Honda in a decade. In time, 25% of all the new cars we sell will be powered by this engine," said a Honda UK spokesman.
The engine is also due to go into the Swindon-built CR-V exported mainly to Europe.
Honda plans to replace every engine in its range with new units under the 'Earth Dreams Technology' branding within three years and is targeting fuel efficiency leadership.
There will be further versions of the 1.6-litre diesel with lower and higher power outputs, five new petrol engines and a small capacity petrol turbo to rival Ford's Ecoboost line which includes a one-litre I3.

Neko Atsume Cheats Kitty Collector is the long anticipated deciphered kind of the epic Japanese cat collecting game. It is a really fundamental concept of a game where you put food and toys on your catlike yard, and after that observe how many kitties you will get to start playing and eating in your yard. You have a large quantity toys which you are able to putout into the yard in order to entertain the kitties. Some of them are costing silverfish and a number of them are costing gold fish.
An interesting fact is that each toy only lures a particular kitty. The more interesting toy is placed in the yard (especially the ones which cost more goldfish), the rarer cat can be attracted.
