Janeway tries to prevent Henry Starling from launching the timeship without altering the past.
Summary Edit
Henry Starling continues to prepare for his flight back to the 29th century to get more technology, which he plans to use to revolutionize the 20th century computer age further than he already has with his technology from the Aeon. Luckily for the crew of USS Voyager the news footage of the ship flying through the skies has been dismissed as fraudulent by most people, although the military are taking it seriously and therefore the crew cannot attempt another low-altitude flight.
The crew of Voyager finds out that it was Starling's trip to the 29th century that caused the temporal explosion. Rain Robinson, Lieutenant Tuvok, and Lt. jg Tom Paris distract Starling by having Robinson call Starling for help. She implores him to save her, pleading with him that "people are shooting at me!"
Suspicious but convinced, Starling drives to her location accompanied by The Doctor, who is wearing his new mobile emitter (provided by Starling). Tuvok and Paris transmit Starling's coordinates to Commander Chakotay and Lt. jg B'Elanna Torres, who are flying towards them in a shuttlecraft. They beam Starling to Voyager, but the shuttle loses attitude control and crashes in the Arizona desert.
Annoyed that his technology did not prevent his capture, Starling reveals to Captain Kathryn Janeway on Voyager what his intentions are in traveling to the future. Afterward, Mr. Dunbar, Starling's assistant, activates a satellite in orbit around Earth and beams him back to Chronowerx Industries.
Dunbar creates a diversion using a temporal transponder and lures Paris and Robinson to chase him, believing that he has the timeship. Just before Dunbar runs Paris and Robinson's car over with his truck, Chakotay and Torres (having been rescued from Arizona by Tuvok and The Doctor) destroy the truck with a blast from the repaired shuttle. Torres manages to fix the transporters and beams Paris on board to return to Voyager. Starling, however, successfully launches the timeship from the Chronowerx building.
Voyager's weapons are still off-line from their jump to the 20th century, so they cannot disable the Aeon. Ensign Harry Kim gets the photon torpedoes back on-line and can lock onto targets, but doesn't have firing control for them just yet. He informs Janeway that the phasers are still off-line. Just as the Aeon is about to fly into a temporal rift to the 29th century, Janeway manually fires a photon torpedo, destroying the Aeon.
After the Aeon's destruction, an alternate Aeon emerges from the rift with an alternate Captain Braxton, who has no memory of past events. He detects Voyager in the 20th century and takes the ship back to the 24th century to their previous coordinates in the Delta Quadrant. He cannot transport Voyager to Earth in the 24th century since doing so would have violated the Temporal Prime Directive.
Afterward, the Voyager's crew hold a celebration in the mess hall, for both saving the future and for The Doctor, who with his mobile emitter, now has complete freedom from the confines of sickbay.
- "Captain's log, stardate 50312.5. We are again in the Delta Quadrant, at the exact time and place we first encountered the timeship. I've resumed a course for Earth and I've ordered the crew to the mess hall for a toast."

Background Information Edit
Story and Script Edit
- The "Future's End" story arc originally included not only a second part but also a third and, at one point, a fourth. Supervising producer Brannon Braga explained, "Actually it started out as a four-part arc on Earth in 1996. The studio had some problems with that. They felt that it was too dangerous to attempt. The studio is not a firm believer [even] in two-parters. So we ended up reducing it to three parts, then two. I think it was a good idea, because it really made it a very taut and packed story line." (Cinefantastique, Vol. 29, No. 6/7, p. 109) On the other hand, Braga also stated, "Part of me wishes we had still done the four-parter, because we had Tuvok and Paris get trapped in a convenience store while it was being ambushed by gang members." (Cinefantastique, Vol. 29, No. 6/7, p. 84)
- Moments after escaping from Starling and Dunbar in this episode, The Doctor approaches Rain Robinson and smells a tree behind her. This plot point was devised by actor Robert Picardo, taking inspiration from his own childhood. "I added that," he related. "Because I remember when I was a very young child, we took home movies of all the kids together feeding the ducks and all that. And all the other children were smelling the flowers and I'm just busy smelling a leaf. You know what I mean? I'm smelling something that's like a dead piece of branch, because I didn't distinguish between smelling a part of the plant and another part. I was imitating the behavior, but smelling the wrong thing. That kind of stuck in my head." (The Official Star Trek: Voyager Magazine, issue #14, p. 17)
- The subplot involving the capture of Chakotay and Torres by an anti-government group originally featured much more in the episode's plot than it ultimately does. "They had to condense it," director Cliff Bole remarked. "Basically, those were the Freemen, the guys in Montana. That could be a whole script! We had to just nail it for a vignette." (The Official Star Trek: Voyager Magazine, issue #15)
- Some consideration went into the possibility of having Rain Robinson aboard Voyager, but this idea was vetoed by executive producer Rick Berman. Joe Menosky remembered, "Rick hated the idea. He just said, 'Forget it.' So we didn't do it." (Cinefantastique, Vol. 29, No. 6/7, p. 109)
- Brannon Braga cited this episode's vehicular activities as bigger action set pieces than had been usual for Star Trek. Referring to the writing team of Star Trek: Voyager, he stated, "We conceived of big action sequences [....] And we crafted big action set pieces like the chase between a Mack truck, a shuttlecraft, and a Volkswagen van." (Star Trek: Voyager Companion)
- The final draft of this episode's script was submitted on 15 August 1996. [1]
Cast and Characters Edit
- In this episode, Henry Starling fits The Doctor with a mobile autonomous holographic emitter, allowing The Doctor to freely move about, outside of Voyager's sickbay and holodecks, and even outside of the ship itself. Robert Picardo noted, "I'm mobile." (Cinefantastique, Vol. 29, No. 6/7, p. 91) Picardo had, during the second season of Star Trek: Voyager, suggested that his character of The Doctor go on a planetary mission. Shortly after completing work on that season, Picardo remarked, "I would be in some altered state, I would assume, because they would have to portabilize him." (Cinefantastique, Vol. 28, No. 4/5, p. 97) Furthermore, Picardo had also suggested – during that same season – that The Doctor should be modified for away mission usage in pieces, so that (for a while), his head alone would be sent on such missions. (Delta Quadrant, pp. 150-151) Despite these suggestions – and much in the same ways as Rene Auberjonois reacted to Odo finding his people (in Star Trek: Deep Space Nine) – Picardo initially felt that giving The Doctor a mobile emitter would be a huge mistake and would ruin the character, before the actor eventually realized that it was the right decision. "I remember thinking it was a bad idea to give him mobility outside of sickbay," Picardo stated. "I thought that part of the audience's interest in the character was because of the limitations the character had and the challenges he had to face in trying to make the best of his limitations. But Brannon Braga was really right in that idea of giving me the mobile emitter. It opened up whole new storytelling vistas and I was the first to tell him that I was wrong – that the mobile emitter was a great idea." (Star Trek: Voyager Companion) Picardo also recalled, "I was concerned about the Portable Holographic Emitter because I didn't want to mess with a winning combination. The audience seemed to embrace the Doctor's character during the show's first seasons, and so much of his character is based on the notion that he is severely limited and has to cope with limitations such as the fact that he can only exist in Sickbay or in the Holodeck, and that he's different to an organic being. So it seemed to me that if we took the risk of making him more like everyone else, we were damaging part of his uniqueness. Fortunately, that does not seem to have been the case [....] I am very happy that I was wrong about the Portable Emitter." (Star Trek Monthly issue 30, p. 17)
- Robert Picardo regretted, however, that a joke he devised could not be included in this episode. "One of the great jokes I wanted to do this year but didn't get the chance to," a laughing Picardo explained, at the end of the third season, "was that the first time I appeared on the Bridge, to subconsciously relax in the captain's chair. You know, the Doctor comes on the Bridge, decides that the captain's chair is the best place to see what's going on, and sits there. And then, Captain Janeway sees what he's doing and says, 'What the hell's going on?' But it just didn't fit into that episode, because there was so much else going on." (Star Trek Monthly issue 30, p. 17)
- In general, Robert Picardo enjoyed working on this episode's two-parter. When asked about favorite episodes at the 2001 Galaxy Ball charity Star Trek convention, Picardo commented, "'Future's End' was one I really enjoyed. Kate [Mulgrew] and I were really close – I look back at that with fond memories." (Star Trek Magazine issue 89, p. 32) A certain part of this installment that Picardo liked was when The Doctor smells the tree, a moment that Picardo referred to as "touching." (The Official Star Trek: Voyager Magazine, issue #14, p. 17)
- Henry Starling actor Ed Begley, Jr. enjoyed working on this episode as well as the previous installment, and felt that this episode's existence was warranted. He enthused, "I loved that I got to battle the Voyager people for two episodes and that I put up a pretty good fight [....] It was a very good story, worth spreading over two shows." (The Official Star Trek: Voyager Magazine, issue #11) Begley also said, "I thought it was great that Starling got to challenge them for two episodes. I have to say that he did pretty well for a man who was really just a 20th Century Neanderthal!" (Star Trek Monthly issue 26, p. 60)
- Although Ed Begley had been unfamiliar with Kate Mulgrew before guest-starring in this episode's duology, their work together here familiarized the actress to him. "I feel like I know her now," Begley said, having worked on this installment's two-parter. "She's wonderfully talented–a very bright and funny lady." (The Official Star Trek: Voyager Magazine, issue #11)
- Alternatively, Ed Begley had appeared alongside Robert Picardo once before. "I had [...] worked with Bob Picardo on a St. Elsewhere episode," Begley explained. (The Official Star Trek: Voyager Magazine, issue #11) Despite this connection, he only learned of it while performing here. "Bob told me I was actually very nice to him then," Begley laughed. "I don't remember it, but he certainly returned the favor to me on 'Future's End.'" (Star Trek Monthly issue 26, p. 60)
- Ed Begley enjoyed working with all involved in the making of the episode, finding that they made him feel extremely welcome, and he very much enjoyed his time on Star Trek: Voyager. (Star Trek Monthly issue 26, p. 60) In summation, he noted, "I had a terrific time." (The Official Star Trek: Voyager Magazine, issue #11) He also remarked, "I just had the best time. I really did." (Star Trek Monthly issue 26, p. 60)
- Director Cliff Bole inherited the guest stars for this episode from David Livingston (who directed the first half of this episode's two-parter). However, Bole was admittedly perplexed that Ed Begley, Jr. had been cast as Henry Starling. Bole explained, "The show had already been cast; I just picked it up when I came in to prep Part II. I like to be part of the initial casting on shows I direct. In this case, I would have had something to say about their choices. Ed was different, but Ed is Ed. I don't think he was the right man for the part. But he brought something different to the table, and it worked." (The Official Star Trek: Voyager Magazine, issue #15)
- Actress Sarah Silverman found that, like her character of Rain Robinson in this installment, she herself became more familiar with the Voyager personnel as time passed. "In both cases, on the show and in real life," Silverman noted, "I got to know these people and what their lives were like and become a part of it." (Star Trek Monthly issue 25, p. 61)
- Regular cast member Robert Duncan McNeill liked the nature of the romantic relationship that develops between his character of Tom Paris and Rain Robinson here. "That was a lot of fun," the actor enthused. "I got to have a romantic interest that was very innocent. It was a nice change. That's something [we'd] been talking about for two years, how to deal with Paris' interest in the ladies without making him look like a cad. They did a really nice job of giving me a love interest that was sincere and affectionate without recalling all my casual remarks about the Delaney sisters." (The Official Star Trek: Voyager Magazine, issue #11)
Production and Effects Edit
- Several scenes of this episode, as with the previous one, were shot on location. For this installment, the locations used were in Los Angeles and in the Mojave Desert. The chance to go on location was enjoyed by cast and crew alike, including Cliff Bole. (The Official Star Trek: Voyager Magazine, issue #15, p. 34)
- The "park" in this episode's teaser is actually an area of the Paramount Pictures lot. Offices that can be seen in the background are actually the studio's administrative offices. (Star Trek: Voyager Companion)
- The square where The Doctor meets up with Paris, Tuvok and Rain Robinson is actually outside the Dorothy Chandler Pavilion in downtown Los Angeles. wbm
- The scene set inside Henry Starling's car was filmed on a set. The production of that scene provided Sarah Silverman, who had often heard about the extreme level to which Ed. Begley, Jr. was an environmentalist, with an amusing anecdote about the actor. "I was so happy to be able to take home to my friends the quintessential Ed Begley moment," Silverman recalled. "We were sitting in the back of a car on set but in between takes. He took out his cellular phone, dialed a number, and I heard him go, 'Hi. It's Ed. Listen, could you go to the garage and unplug my car?' He has an electric car! I just sat there silently thinking, 'Now I can officially finish this job and have a great story to tell my friends!'" (Star Trek Monthly issue 25, p. 62)
- At least part of the supposedly-Arizonan desert road was actually near the city of Victorville, situated in the Mojave Desert. (Delta Quadrant, p. 151) The filming of the exploding truck, however, was near Palmdale. (The Official Star Trek: Voyager Magazine, issue #16)
- This episode, in common with the previous installment, uses modified shots of the Transit Building in Los Angeles to depict Chronowerx headquarters. However, one of the shots in this episode was especially modified for a particular scene. Visual effects supervisor Ronald B. Moore recalled, "We had the spaceship that had to bust out of a building [....] We did the Transit Building, downtown L.A. It became the building and then we were able to manipulate it for the plane to fly out." (Red Alert: Amazing Visual Effects, VOY Season 3 DVD special features) Moore did not have enough time to add dust and debris into this shot, a fact he ultimately regretted. (Cinefantastique, Vol. 29, No. 6/7, p. 98)
- Before working on this episode (and the rest of Voyager's third season), CGI supplier Foundation Imaging had regularly worked on Babylon 5, although CGI Effects Director Ron Thornton thought the opportunities that Foundation was presented with on that series paled to the work provided to the company for this episode's adventurous two-parter. Thornton remarked, "We would never have had the opportunity on Babylon 5 to do shots like a truck exploding out near Palmdale, so it was very cool to do it on Voyager." (The Official Star Trek: Voyager Magazine, issue #16)
Continuity and Trivia Edit
- The film Star Trek: First Contact – which includes the Borg Queen threateningly saying the line, "Watch your future's end." – was released in the week after this episode first aired.
- Before returning to the 24th century, Voyager leaves some technology behind, including Captain Janeway's combadge (in part 1), her tricorder (in part 1), and The Doctor's holographic combadge. Considering that everything was undone when Voyager destroyed the timeship, these may have been erased from existence on Earth as well. Admiral Kirk and his crew also left technology behind in the 20th century (a phaser and a communicator) in Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home.
- Following its introduction here, The Doctor's mobile emitter would remain in place until the series' end. However, Robert Picardo initially doubted that the device would be reused. Following the production of this episode but still during the third season, he speculated, "I don't think we'll be able to repeat the method of how they got me off the ship." (The Official Star Trek: Voyager Magazine, issue #10)
- The Aeon's cockpit would later be reused in "Fury" and "Retrospect".
- The events of this episode represent the seventh time (aside from the series premiere) that the Voyager crew has a possibility of returning home (to their timeline).
- These episodes present a different interpretation of temporal causality than "Time and Again". In both episodes, a terrible disaster occurs, someone returns to the past and ends up trying to prevent the same disaster. In the season one episode, when the disaster is averted, the characters lose their memories and everything is exactly as it was before the disaster. Here, the characters retain their memories and are still in the 20th century after Braxton's ship is destroyed.
- The Doctor mentions having recently undergone a severe programming loss, and that he is still in the process of recovering his memory files, referencing events that take place in "The Swarm".
- Starling's company is called "Chronowerx," yet the inside of the timeship bay is emblazoned with "Chronowerks".
- Rain claims to have seen "every episode of Mission: Impossible." Leonard Nimoy (Spock) played "The Great Paris" on this Desilu series following the cancellation of the classic Star Trek series (albeit, for only two seasons).
- Although this episode posits 29th century Federation technology as having been responsible for the microcomputer revolution of the 1990s, the fact that the episode ends with Janeway apparently bringing that timeline to an end makes the reasoning no longer applicable. Robert Picardo came up with another explanation for the technological revolution: "Bill Gates is the guy that plundered the other alien ship that crashed, since the one that Ed Begley Jr. plundered now never happened." (Cinefantastique, Vol. 29, No. 6/7, p. 110)
- Rain, Dunbar, Butch and Porter all later made appearances in the non-canonical novel The Rise and Fall of Khan Noonien Singh, Volume 2.
Reception and Aftermath Edit
- Regarding the success of the two-part episode of which this forms the second half, Brannon Braga enthused, "It was a charming, fun episode." (Star Trek: Voyager Companion, p. 121)
- Similarly, Rick Berman once described the "Future's End" two-parter as "wonderful". (Star Trek: Communicator, issue #109, p. 14)
- Other members of cast and crew – including Janeway actress Kate Mulgrew, Tuvok actor Tim Russ, Chakotay actor Robert Beltran and executive producer Jeri Taylor – also liked this episode's two-parter. (The Official Star Trek: Voyager Magazine, issue #14, p. 32; Star Trek: Voyager Companion, p. 179; Cinefantastique, Vol. 29, No. 6/7, p. 93; Star Trek Monthly issue 31, p. 11) Kate Mulgrew counted both parts of the "Future's End" duology as being among her eight favorite installments of Star Trek: Voyager's third season. (The Official Star Trek: Voyager Magazine, issue #14, p. 32) Tim Russ opined, "It was a great two-parter." (Star Trek: Voyager Companion, p. 179) Citing the two-parter as one of the highlights of Voyager's third season, Jeri Taylor commented, "I think that probably many people's favorite was the 'Future's End' two-parter where the crew came back to Earth. That really was so much fun." (Star Trek Monthly issue 31, p. 11)
- This episode achieved a Nielsen rating of 5.8 million homes, and a 9% share. [2] Jeri Taylor once reckoned, "'Future's End, Part II' [...] is the highest I think we had all year." (Cinefantastique, Vol. 29, No. 6/7, p. 107) However, this episode was actually the second most watched episode of Star Trek: Voyager's third season (on first airing), topped by the third season premiere "Basics, Part II".
- Cinefantastique rated this installment 3 and a half out of 4 stars, referring to the episode's duology as "A terrific two-parter that was great fun." (Cinefantastique, Vol. 29, No. 6/7, p. 97)
- Star Trek Monthly scored this episode 5 out of 5 stars, defined as "Gold-pressed latinum!". (Star Trek Monthly issue 26, p. 59)
- The unauthorized reference book Delta Quadrant (p. 152) gives this installment a rating of 8 out of 10.
- Brannon Braga was extremely pleased with the response to this episode. He noted, "'Future's End,' although it wasn't everyone's cup of tea, was a critical success, and a ratings success in a big way." (Cinefantastique, Vol. 29, No. 6/7, p. 84)
- The fans of Star Trek: Voyager wholeheartedly embraced, or at least seemed to embrace, the concept of the mobile emitter and its use by The Doctor. At the end of the third season, Robert Picardo remarked, "The audience seem to enjoy seeing me on Away Missions and in other parts of the ship [....] I'm [...] very pleased that the audience hasn't written in hundreds of thousands of letters complaining that by using 29th Century technology in the 24th Century, we're clearly breaking the Temporal Prime Directive." (Star Trek Monthly issue 30, p. 17)
- One aspect of fan reaction to this episode that Joe Menosky became aware of was disappointment that Rain Robinson does not get to beam aboard Voyager in the episode's two-parter. (Cinefantastique, Vol. 29, No. 6/7, p. 109) One such fan was writer Lou Anders, who had been secretly hoping that Robinson would somehow join the crew at the episode's end. (Star Trek Monthly issue 25, p. 62) In fact, Rick Berman ultimately regretted that the writing team of Star Trek: Voyager had not gone ahead with bringing Rain aboard the ship. Joe Menosky remembered, "I think in retrospect, after the whole thing was done, Rick said, 'Maybe it would have been OK if we would have had her.'" (Cinefantastique, Vol. 29, No. 6/7, p. 109)
- Both Brannon Braga and Jeri Taylor believed this episode's two-parter had an impact on subsequent installments of Star Trek: Voyager. Braga noted, "We began to hit our stride with 'Future's End'." (Star Trek Monthly issue 34, p. 13) Additionally, he observed, "I think, after the first two-parter we did together – which was a time travel show, I think, called 'Future's End' – it was just so much fun to paint on a bigger canvas." (Braving the Unknown: Season Three, VOY Season 3 DVD special features) He also said of the "Future's End" two-parter, "That was really, the turning point, when Voyager became a little bit more fun again. I think I speak for everyone here, in terms of the season. The show kind of started to rejuvenate, and we were doing much more what we wanted to do." (Cinefantastique, Vol. 29, No. 6/7, p. 109) In agreement, Jeri Taylor described this episode's two-parter as "the show that kind of began to swing us back to a more adventure-oriented sense of fun." (Cinefantastique, Vol. 29, No. 6/7, p. 84)
- Straight after working on this episode, Sarah Silverman appeared on The Larry Sanders Show. "I actually did 'Future's End' and Larry Sanders back to back," she remarked, "which were unbelievably opposite experiences, although they were both a blast. Another character from Larry Sanders is on Star Trek: Deep Space Nine – Penny Johnson – and we were talking about [the preciseness required of the dialogue in Star Trek]." (Star Trek Monthly issue 25, p. 61)
- Also after appearing in this episode, Sarah Silverman was surprised by the popularity of both Star Trek in general and this installment's two-parter in particular. "I'm shocked," she exclaimed, "because I can't believe how many people watch that show. I've never been recognized so often for one or two shows. I was walking out of this studio to my car, and there was some guy building sets, with his back to me, and I said, 'Excuse me, do you know what time it is?' He went, 'Rain Robinson! You're Rain Robinson! I recognized you from your voice.' There are a lot of Trekkies out there that you never know." (Star Trek Monthly issue 25, p. 62)
- Following his work on this episode's two-parter, Ed Begley, Jr. considered returning to Star Trek. "Who knows? Maybe I'll do another Star Trek in the future," he speculated. "Considering how much I enjoyed 'Future's End,' I would certainly welcome the opportunity." (The Official Star Trek: Voyager Magazine, issue #11) This episode and the previous one constitute his only appearances on Star Trek, however.
- Similarly, Sarah Silverman decided that, although she would welcome the opportunity to reprise her role of Rain Robinson if a credible means presented itself (an opportunity that, ultimately, never came to pass), she would be too scared to join the main cast if Rain became a member of Voyager's crew, as Silverman was generally very anxious about commitment. (Star Trek Monthly issue 25, p. 62)

It's the problem Honolulu police face as they investigate what lead to Friday's early morning murder.
Honolulu police said the first call came from the Shell gas station on Waikamilo Road.
"At 2:40 this morning, officers were called on numerous males chasing another male," said HPD Capt. Lisa Mann.
The victim, according to police, pleaded for help a worker at the gas station.
Police say moments later a witness flagged down a patrol officer to tell him there was a shirtless man in a fight with three other shirtless men on Halona Street.
A gruesome scene when the officer arrived, the lifeless body along the side of the road in a large pool of blood.
Traffic on the H-1 Freeway westbound backed up during the morning rush while police closed the Houghtailing Street off-ramp to investigate.
Shortly after, officers were directed to Diner's Drive-In on King Street after calls about two bloody men causing a commotion there.
Click here to see more pictures from the scene.
Police questioned, then arrested Vainuuao Tosaga, 21, and Asuelu Moananu, both 21 years old from Kalihi, for second-degree murder.
Owner Min Kim says his employees told him they had no idea what was happening in front of their eatery.
"I say, 'What happened last night?' and they told me, 'Oh, nothing in here, only outside a lot of policemen,'" said Kim.
Police believe jalousie glass shards were the murder weapon -- taken from a pile dumped along the street. The victim was stabbed multiple times and was pronounced dead at the scene.
Detectives hope video taken from surveillance cameras at both businesses may hold clues as to what caused the fatal fight, as the investigation continues.
HPD said investigators are not looking for anyone else in connection with the murder.

- Title
- Growth dynamics of a Bose-Einstein condensate in a dimple trap without cooling

- Abstract
- We study the formation of a Bose-Einstein condensate in a cigar-shaped three-dimensional harmonic trap, induced by the controlled addition of an attractive 'dimple' potential along the weak axis. In this manner we are able to induce condensation without cooling due to a localized increase in the phase-space density. We perform a quantitative analysis of the thermodynamic transformation in both the sudden and adiabatic regimes for a range of dimple widths and depths. We find good agreement with equilibrium calculations based on self-consistent semiclassical Hartree-Fock theory describing the condensate and thermal cloud. We observe that there is an optimal dimple depth that results in a maximum in the condensate fraction. We also study the nonequilibrium dynamics of condensate formation in the sudden turn-on regime, finding good agreement for the observed time dependence of the condensate fraction with calculations based on quantum kinetic theory.

The time has come when the crack of the bat on ball, the smack of the line drive hitting the shortstop's glove is echoing throughout the land. A small coterie of millionaires is again playing a game that once belonged to the boys of summer. Therefore, it is time for me to warm up my venerable right arm. I am once again hoping to send you young whippersnappers back to the bench, dragging your bats behind you. Just to falsely build your confidence, the first pitch will be a batting practice fastball, waist high, right down the middle at 85 miles an hour. Step up, batter.
1. Who was the author of the following books? "Pavlov's Trout" and "Darwin's Bass" and Fishing Lessons." "Fishing Lessons" was far and away the better of these titles.
2. Who was the artist that did the color plates of various fish for Ray Bergman's book, "Just Fishing?" If you reached first on that pitch, you may have noticed that I am a bit slow delivering the pitch to my catcher. Scamper on down to second base if you know this. That artist, in 1952, wrote his own fine book on fly fishing. The title of that book was?
3. Aha, now for a fastball, in on the fists. What year was the Harrisburg Fly Fishers club started?
4. Now, poor batter, watch this knuckle ball dance. In 1857, a seminal book was published that urged anglers to "turn around and fish upstream." The title of this book was? Try for an extra base if you know the middle name of the author of this book. Swing, batter, swing!
5. Who was the author of that great sleeper of a book, "Rising Trout?" Can you name one other book written by this writer?
6. In 1985, John Gierach wrote in his book, "The View from Rat Lake," "there are only three things in life that are dead center." In Mr. Gierach's opinion, what were they?
7. Now, for the pitch that will put you on the next bus for Scranton, back to the bush leagues. The pen name that Alfred W. Miller used to conceal his identity was, of course, Sparse Grey Hackle. Mr. Edward R. Hewitt had another nickname for Sparse. It was?
There are 10 questions here. Anyone achieving a batting average of .750 will receive two poorly tied flies. Answers should be sent by snail mail to PO Box 103, Hankins, NY 12741, attention Complete Tangler. Answers will appear in the April 26 column. Enjoy the bus ride.
I rarely need to give up any flies, although that retired flatfoot from Damascus, PA did surprise me one year by not only hitting my pitches over the fence but completely out of the stadium. Since then, I have learned not to pitch him any low-and-away fastballs.
For Barbara and me, the time has come to begin packing for the long ride back to the log cabin on the Main Stem of the mighty Delaware. Since I piddled away so much time this winter, my hands are now glued to the tying vice, cranking out the necessary flies for the coming season. Some of them look pretty darn good. I can only hope that with a good presentation, the trout will agree with my belief. It is most certainly their opinion, not mine, that counts. Time will tell.

Benson woman spends night in woodsBy Darren Marcy
Staff Writer | November 20,2013BENSON A Benson woman was found about 7:30 a.m. Tuesday after she spent a night lost in the woods.
Vermont State Police said Francheska Chalidze, 78, of Benson was last seen at 11:30 a.m. Monday at her home on Herrick Road in Benson. But it is believed she went for a walk about 3 p.m., didnt make it back before dark and became lost.
She was reported missing about 11:25 p.m.
Lisa Chalidze of Benson said her sister-in-laws housemate reported her missing as soon as she discovered she had not returned from her walk.
Francheska Chalidze suffered a stroke about one year ago. She did not lose cognitive abilities, her sister in law said, but she was robbed of her speech.
Chalidze was dressed for the outdoors, but not an overnight stay in the woods. She was wearing a white coat and a hunter-orange cap.
I think she just went out for a walk, Vermont State Police Lt. Charles Cacciatore said. She enjoys walking and this was just one of those situations where it got away from her.
Lisa Chalidze said her sister-in-law spent most of the night walking to stay warm as snow fell and wind blew.
A search was launched when Francheska Chalidze was reported missing. Volunteers searched throughout the night, and a helicopter was launched as soon as it was safe Tuesday morning.
Chalidze was spotted by the crew of a Customs and Border Protection helicopter at about 7:30 a.m., a few miles from her home.
She appeared to be in good health and good spirits despite the night in the woods and was treated by the Fair Haven Rescue Squad, police said.
Im just glad she is OK, Cacciatore said. Everybody did a super job working together and locating her.
Vermont State Police, the Benson Fire Department and New England K9 Search and Rescue joined in the search. Wardens from the state Fish & Wildlife Department were on their way when the woman was located.

Reviews of this property
Perfect location in old town, 10 minute walk from train station, five minute walk to main square on quieter street. Spacious and clean apartment. Small balcony overlooking green, peaceful courtyard. P&J office two blocks away, staff very friendly and helpful, allowed us to store luggage both before check-in and after check-out. Only positive comments.
The apartment was handled by a bureau with a small office close by. We used the airport-apartment transfer provided by the bureau. This was quite convenient.
The apartment was large but with lot of empty furniture. The apartment was very central in the city 2 min from the central square.
There was no washing tablets for the dishwaher and only little toiletpaper. They gave us more paper in the office and listened to us. The wifi worked fine.
We have been a couple of days to Krakow with 4 adults.
The service host is really perfect. He had arranged that we were picked up from Krakow Airport with a private driver and were charged. Before the door of the apartment The apartment is in a very nice central location in the old town of Krakow. In the middle of the nightlife but still nice and quiet.
The host also had a private driver arranged for us to visit Auschwitz and Birkenau. That was all arranged summit.
A wonderful holiday in a convenient location.
We zijn met 4 volwassenen een paar dagen naar Krakau geweest.
De service van de gastheer is echt perfect. Hij had geregeld dat wij met een privé chauffeur werden opgehaald van Krakau Airport en voor de deur van het appartement werden gebracht. Het appartement ligt op een zeer mooie centrale plek in het oude centrum van Krakau. Midden in het uitgaansleven en toch lekker rustig.
De gastheer had ook een privé chauffeur geregeld voor ons bezoek aan Auschwitz en Birkenau. Dat was helemaal top geregeld.
Een heerlijke vakantie op een prima plek.
With our apartment in Krakow, we were very pleased. The location is perfect for exploring the city on foot, the apartment is quiet and spacious. Also recommended is the adjacent "milk bar" in which there is low delicious pies and pancakes with different fillings.
The staff of Wimdu were friendly and helpful, the office is always busy around the corner.
Mit unserer Ferienwohnung in Krakau waren wir sehr zufrieden. Die Lage ist perfekt um die Stadt zu Fuß zu erkunden, die Wohnung ist ruhig und geräumig. Zu empfehlen ist auch die benachbarte "Milchbar", in der es günstig leckere Piroggen mit unterschiedlichen Füllungen und Pfannkuchen gibt.
Die Mitarbeiter von Wimdu waren freundlich und hilfsbereit, das Büro um die Ecke stets besetzt.
We stayed here for 6 days in Sep 2013 and it was great. The location was perfect - just a couple of minutes' walk to the square and very close to a 24hr supermarket. The apartment itself had everything we needed and was very comfortable - and bigger than we'd expected. The best thing about it was the customer service. P&J apartments have an office just round the corner from the apartment and they were really helpful both by email before and during our stay and in person while we were there. We booked transfers to and from the airport with them and also arranged trips to Aushchwhitz and the salt mines through them. Our flight to Poland arrived early in the morning and our flight home left in the evening but they were very helpful in accommodating us outside the usual check in/out times to fit better with our flights. I would definitely recommend staying here.
En fin lejlighed og meget centralt beliggende. I forløbet med bestillingen og praktiske spørgsmål fik vi fin hjælp. I Krakow fik vi særdeles fin service af de mennesker, der udlejede vores lejlighed. De hjalp med transport, afhentning af bagage, udflugter og svar på vores mange spørgsmål. Absolut anbefalelsesværdigt. Og anbefalinger er allerede givet videre til vores venner.
Appartement ligt in een rustige straat op de 4e verdieping. Hele oude kleine lift, maar die doet het perfect. Alles was super schoon en bedden netjes gedekt. Elke dag exact om 9.00 uur kwam ons lekkere Pools ontbijt, zoals afgesproken. Toen we de verwarming niet konden regelen, kwamen ze meteen om dat te fixen. We hebben ons laten halen en brengen naar het vliegveld voor 20 euro per rit. De ligging is perfect, midden in de oude prachtige stad. Eettentjes, geldautomaten en shops genoeg in de buurt, kortom dit appartement is een aanrader en wellicht komen we nog terug, want ook Krakau is echt te gek!
Reviews for this host's other properties
Upon Arrival we have been changed to another appartment, but with the same facilities and also close to the city centre. I was big enough and clean with all the facilities we need. The location was great and we didn't have any Problems.
Me and my family spent one week in this apartment and we had a great time there. It is very well located, with stores nearby where you can get everything you need in case you don´t want to spend so much money eating outside. The rooms are big and confortable and the people who manage the apartments always willing to help or provide anything you need. We will never forget our stay there. Thanks very much!! María

Something I noticed
Today Kyle had a chance to return the favor & switch spots with Denny to give Denny one more point in the chase & instead just ran it as hard as he could. He couldnt pass anyone for position he was the 1st car a lap down.
Then What happened to Busch with having to pit, the very same thing happened to Denny who is in the chase & makes it even more important. Denny however gave an interview, & was calm about everything in the interview & Kyle wouldnt give an interview at all.
What a putz!

don't get any toppings they have to grab with their hands! really hard to avoid cc. other than that's it's great. I tell them I have a gluten allergy and they know the protocols. everything is gluten free excerpt the tortillas. You can get a corn quesadilla even and they wrap it in foil to put it in the press. I've never gotten sick here. it would be super cool if they had dairy free sour cream. but no where does, so.
7332 Baltimore Ave., College Park, MD 20740
your typical Chipotle. Come educated because you get very little help at the counter. pretty reliable still have not gotten sick at a Chipotle
3362 Center Rd, Space E-03, Brunswick, OH 44212
I am an extremely sensitive celiac and feel confident in most Chipotle resturants..for the most part. This particular location goes above any other ones I have been too. We now regularly order online and have never had and issue..the good places change spoons fyi:)
6924 S. Park Centre Dr., Cottonwood Heights, UT 84121
First attempt at being gluten free. The server changed gloves and used fresh cheese so as not to touch the cheese that had been touched by previous gloves. They completely exceeded my expectations
3670 Fishinger Blvd., Hilliard, OH 43026
I loved it! Definitely gluten free
11113 San Jose Blvd., Jacksonville, FL 32223
This was a exceptional Chipotle. I mentioned I had a wheat allergy and they without question changed gloves, serving spoons, and even pulled out a separate cheese and lettuce supply. They even took the time to wipe down the counter to prevent any sort of cross contamination!
21423 N John Wayne Pkwy, Maricopa, AZ 85138
Have been a few time since opened no issues at all. Friendly and knowledgeable staff.
2388 S Oneida St, Ashwaubenon, WI 54304
Great menu. Workers change their gloves for gluten free requests. Menu is clear as to what has gluten.
2182 Santa Barbara Dr, Santa Rosa, CA 95404
The staff were amazing.... Got fresh cheese from the back and clean utensils. Very knowledgeable and terrific training!!!.
110 Burlington Mall Road, Burlington, MA 01803
They are very careful in serving you. They changed gloves,took items from a new container to insure no cross contamination. They also wash the counter before preparing my meal. They went above the norm.
3475 Las Vegas Blvd., Las Vegas, NV 89109
The Chipotle at the Venetian... great staff. Knowledgeable. Nice. Showed me everything and even washed their hands and put on new gloves before serving me. Felt great afterwards!
2820 West Loop 250, North Suite 210, Midland, TX 79705
Just started gluten free and the staff was very helpful. one of the workers had Celiac and explained that everything was gluten free except flour tortillas. They said they could wipe down everything if allergy was real bad.
14120 Bear Valley Rd., Victorville, CA 92392
First time eating at Chipotle...loved it!
2504 Highway 6, Grand Junction, CO 81505
Had a bowl with shredded beef, pinto beans, pico de gallo, lettuce and cheese. Didn't finish the whole thing. Felt sick within minutes. I won't ever eat at this Chipotle again.
2007 Camden Ave., Suite 50, San Jose, CA 95124
I always feel cross contaminated when I go to this store as well.
1210 Shaw Ave., Clovis, CA 93612
Informed of need for gluten free that person changed gloves after washing hands and prepared my bowl with fresh spoons and ingredients. I have Celiac and have ate here several times with same wonderful helpful staff and attitudes
718 Ponce de Leon Ave., Atlanta, GA 30306
Tell them if you have celiac and ask them to change their gloves. The same person will make your whole meal to avoid cross contamination. I get the bowl and avoid the chips, taco shells etc. and I have never had a problem.
2303 White Bear Ave., Unit H, Maplewood, MN 55109
Great awareness and always friendly
435 South Duff Avenue #102, Ames, IA 50010
Most of Chipotle's menu items are gluten free (except for tortillas). The person making my bowl changed gloves before starting to prep my burrito bowl. I was able to have the beans, beef, pork, salsa, and corn. Basically everything is gluten free except for the tortillas.
200 Varick St., New York, NY 10014
Not a dedicated facility but they changed their gloves when I said I had a good allergy and were very nice and accomodating, best of all did not have a reaction. It was very clean and the line moved pretty quickly
244 South Beverly Dr., Beverly Hills, CA 90212
I don't hold it against Chipotle, but their establishment is a cross contamination nightmare. Changing gloves won't help. Burrito bowl doesn't help. I have celiac and am very sensitive.
435 South Duff Avenue #102, Ames, IA 50010
I've gotten their bowls many times and have never gotten sick. They are willing to change gloves and spoons, their food is low risk for cross contamination. I have celiacs and would recommend Chipotle!
890 Lancaster Dr. NE, Salem, OR 97301
As soon as I said GF, the cook changed his gloves, got a new bowl, and asked which of the serving utensils should be exchanged for newly washed. Except the tortillas (of course) all options are GF. I've never gotten sick eating here. I gave it 4 stars only because it's a chain/fast food. Enjoy!
557 Ritchie Hwy, Severna Park, MD 21146
Only thing on the menu that is not gluten free are the flour tortillas. Hard tacos or burrito bowls are gf. Corn chips are good. When ordering need to tell first person behind the counter you have to eat gluten free. My experience is that one person will wash hands, put on clean gloves, and make my food from start to finish rather than passing it down the assembly line.
1317 Q street #100, Lincoln, Nebraska 68508
The last two times I have been in I tell them I need gluten free...they have changed gloves and washed their hands and gotten new utensils for my order. I appreciate their training/knowledge of people that must have gluten free food.
3925 Walnut St., Philadelphia, PA 19104
staff use wheat contaminated gloves
Main Terminal Concourse A-B Food Court Space S-11, Baltimore, MD 21240
Serious cross contamination issues.
533 S. Howard Ave., Tampa, FL 33606
Never had a problem with gluten free selections and meal. Never asked servers to change gloves or utensils or food bins but never had a problem.
4940 Pacific Ave., Stockton, CA 95207
So good!!!!! Staff is celiac knowledgeable. Will change gloves. Never have had an issue here.
3475 Las Vegas Blvd., Las Vegas, NV 89109
Terrible! I have Celiac and got extremely sick from eating at this location.
18885 Traditions Drive, Livonia, MI 48167
I was just told the flour tortilla was safe because it was made with flour not wheat. All utensils touch the tortillas. They put on gloves but didn't seem to understand how to stay gf.
13203 West Center Rd., Omaha, NE 68144
the staff if fantastic! the food is wonderful and very filling.
1751 N. First St., San Jose, CA 95112
While I love Chipotle & their business practices, cross contamination is a HUGE issue for Celiacs. Whether or not they change gloves, the serving utensils in every food choice touch the flour tortilla before your's when they're making burritos!
2040 Abbey Rd, Charlottesville, VA 22911
I go here frequently and never have symptoms anymore. I used to have symptoms because I love the corn salsa, but since finding out it's most likely contaminated per their website I stopped using it and noticed vast improvement. I also do not bother with the corn tortillas or chips due to same issue.
1421 South Main Street, Adrian, MI 49221
Incredibly impressed! My husband has a wheat and dairy intolerance and he had heard great things about Chipotle. He walked up and told them about his intolerance. The worker told the the other workers. He then removed all serving utensils from the area, washed the counter thoroughly, and changed his gloves. Then made my husband's GF/DF bowl. We will definitely be coming back again!
333 W. Hampden Ave., Englewood, CO 80110
One of the better Chipotle restaurants for taking Celiac seriously. If you mention celiac, they change gloves and utensils automatically.
3057 NY State Route 50, Suite 5, Saratoga Springs, NY 12866
My go-to for a quick bite. Glove change is not considered inconvenient by staff. Never had a problem after eating here.
One Brattle Square, Cambridge, MA 02138
As soon as I mention I have a gluten allergy, the staff changes gloves. I've eaten here many times and never gotten sick. Safe for Celiac.
12625 Frederick Street, Moreno Valley, CA 92553
The staff at this location is NOT well trained in cross contamination AT ALL!!! I had a horrible experience here. Gave them one more chance and it was worse!! This is a shame as Chipotle is one of my favorites.
1400 Missouri Blvd., Jefferson City, MO 65109
This location is great for those with gluten allergies or celiac! If you tell them gf for one of these reasons they will change gloves and follow your order through the line. They will even get fresh (untouched) toppings from back.
4114 Sepulveda Boulevard, Culver City, CA 90230
I eat here all the time and have always had a good experience.
599 Northtown Drive, Ste. 500, Blaine, MN 55434
If you ask, they will change their gloves and spoons for you. I've never been accidentally glutened there.
3286 New Germany-Trebein Rd., Beavercreek, OH 45431
Ok product, horrible customer service!! Had one guy making food, one guy at the register and four people in the back not helping out. Plus there was a line behind me of about 10 other people.
2120 E. Harmony Rd., Fort Collins, CO 80528
Fast cheap and yummy. Just skip the tortillas, and I've never had a reaction from naked burritos.
10035 FM 1960 Bypass W, Unit F2, Humble, TX 77338
They not only changed gloves and spoons, but they also got cheese from a fresh container. As a celiac customer, I felt comfortable.
969 Bald Hill Rd., Warwick, RI 02886
When I informed my server of my celiac disease, he removed his gloves and threw them out, then spent at least 2-3 minutes washing and sanitizing his hands. He put on a brand new pair of gloves and then asked for my order.
120 Tom Hill Sr Blvd, Macon, GA 31210
I have great luck with chipotle. They will change gloves and have one person handle your order. This isn't my normal location but they did a great job.
15880 Pines Blvd., Pembroke Pines, FL 33027
Chipotle has always been accommodating for our celiac daughter, and this location was no different. The staff changed their gloves and used all new utensils when preparing our food. We'll be back!

First time eating out after doctors visit confirming celiac's! Mentioned it to food prepper, they immediately covered all items containing gluten, washed hands, changed gloves, and got a sheet of aluminum foil to prepare my daughters meal on! Used seperate spoons, and then manager gave us one of our lunches free of charge! Most amazing experience when our minds were quite frazzled!!!

Honestly, they are amazing with any food allergies--they changed their gloves, wiped all countertops and got brand new containers of guacamole, lettuce, etc so no cross contamination could occur. I've eaten there twice with zero issues--highly recommended!!

A Little Falls teenager has been charged with burglarizing the home of a man in the months before he allegedly shot and killed two other teens who broke into his house.
Cody Kasper, 17, was charged Tuesday in connection with two burglaries at the home of Byron Smith, 64.
Smith is charged in the Thanksgiving Day slayings of Nick Brady, 17, and Haile Kifer, 18.
Smith's attorney, Steve Meshbesher, says Kasper and Brady worked on Smith's property last summer. Meshbesher tells the Star Tribune the charges against Kasper show Smith had been victimized in the months before the shootings. Meshbesher says Smith was scared.
Washington County Attorney Pete Orput is prosecuting Smith's case. He says Smith is using the prior burglaries as an excuse for murder.

Court upholds EPA rule on cross-state pollutionap file photo
Smoke rises from the Colstrip Steam Electric Station, a coal burning power plant in in Colstrip, Mont. The Supreme Court on Tuesday handed the Obama administration an important victory in its effort to reduce power plant pollution that contributes to unhealthy air in neighboring states. In a 6-2 decision, the court upheld a rule adopted by the Environmental Protection Agency in 2011 to limit emissions from plants in more than two-dozen Midwestern and Southern states.
WASHINGTON The Supreme Court on Tuesday handed the Obama administration an important victory in its effort to reduce power plant pollution in 27 Midwestern and Appalachian states that blows downwind and leads to unhealthy air.
The decision caps a decades-long effort by the Environmental Protection Agency to find a legally acceptable way to ensure that states are good neighbors and dont contribute to pollution problems in downwind states, where environmental officials can do nothing to control it. The rule upheld Tuesday was EPAs third attempt to solve the problem.
In a 6-2 decision, the court upheld a rule adopted by the EPA in 2011 to limit emissions that create smog and soot that drifts into the air above states along the East Coast.
The ruling means that the polluting states will be forced to reduce smokestack pollution that sullies the air in downwind states. Industry and upwind states had fought the effort and paint it as another attempt by the administration to shut down coal-fired power plants.
Writing for the majority, Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg acknowledged the complexity of the problem before EPA.
In crafting a solution to the problem of interstate air pollution, regulators must account for the vagaries of the wind, Ginsburg wrote.
Power companies and several states sued to block the rule from taking effect, and a federal appeals court in Washington agreed with them in 2012.
Sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxide pollution from power plants can be carried long distances and the pollutants react with other substances to form smog and soot, which have been linked to respiratory illnesses and other disease. The cross-border pollution has prevented many cities and counties from complying with health-based air pollution standards set by law, because they have no authority to control it.
EPA Administrator Gina McCarthy called the courts ruling a resounding victory for public health and a key component of EPAs efforts to make sure all Americans have clean air to breathe.
The new downwind pollution rule was triggered by a federal court throwing out the previous rule penned by the Bush administration. The new rule would cost power plant operators $800 million annually in 2014, according to EPA estimates. Thats in addition to the $1.6 billion spent per year to comply with the 2005 Bush rule that was still in effect until the government drafted the new one.
The Supreme Court today laid to rest the well-worn issue of how to regulate air pollution that is transported hundreds of miles throughout the eastern U.S. and that makes it nearly impossible for states acting along to protect the health and welfare of their citizens, said Bill Becker, the executive director of the National Association of Clean Air Agencies, which represents air pollution control agencies in 45 states and territories and 116 major metropolitan areas nationwide.
The EPA said the investments would be far outweighed by the hundreds of billions of dollars in health care savings from cleaner air. The agency said the rule would prevent more than 30,000 premature deaths and hundreds of thousands of illnesses each year.MORE IN World/National BusinessWASHINGTON Long-term U.S. Full StoryNEW YORK Its not just the musical Hairspray that will air live on NBC tonight.

So glad you had a good time. Yeah ... the San Mateo bridge is pretty freaky ... a long ways, no where to pull over and very low railings. A driver is not "held in" like the other bridges. I think ( not sure ) only FL has similar bridges that go over the shallows. Hold on to that toll ticket - as all toll tickets just went extinct. No more stopping, no more toll takers and no more fumbling for change. Now it's all pre-paid passes or a camera takes a picture of the license plate and one gets a bill in the mail. Some rental cars have the passes installed, and some don't.
Anyway - glad you had a great time at the game too. If you ever plan on trying that trip again, let me know ahead of time and I'll help you plan a fantastic trip!
I'm sure the removal of the actual pay-tolls has helped the traffic flow on the Golden Gate? At least somewhat I would hope! The only other bridges I've been across that were ridiculously long were the Chesapeake Bay bridge in high school on a bus trip to VA beach (that bridge is NO FUN if you are not a fan of bridges!!) and then the Chesapeake Bridge which I went over a few years ago with a friend and his brother, on our way from Baltimore to the race in Dover. I had no idea the bridge was on our route, saw it on the map on my phone a few minutes ahead of time, and thought to myself that it was the Chesapeake Bay bridge and I was like no way, we aren't anywhere near that one... well the Chesapeake Bridge (I think that's what it is called) is also a good 5.5 miles long... my friend and his brother had a good laugh at me during my anxiety attack going over that sucker!! Luckily we did not have to take that same route on the way home!!
I definitely plan on getting out to SF again sometime and I will be sure to hit you up for some help!! Thanks so very much for the offer!!

Morrisey's war against Obamacare
Obamacare is a patchwork conglomeration of body parts snatched from our public and private healthcare systems and cobbled together in the hope of providing universal coverage. Sadly, it achieves only a semblance of that goal.
But, flawed as it is, Obamacare is superior to what went before it – a healthcare system whose cost has been twice that of single-payer systems of other leading nations and that produces outcomes on a par with those of Romania while leaving a sixth of our population without insurance coverage and without care except in the direst of circumstances when both costs and outcomes are at their worst.
The implementation of Obamacare has been painful. Due to design problems, capacity issues and huge demand many visitors to the government's HealthCare.gov website haven't yet been able to successfully enroll in insurance plans.
The good news is that the launches of Medicare 50 years ago and, more recently, of Medicare Part D were as deeply troubled and those programs became cherished pillars of society. Also, only about 3 percent of Americans, mostly with low incomes, will have to use the online exchanges, and, as we discovered with sequestration and the government shutdown, when pain is concentrated among the poor, politicians and the press are largely indifferent. So, there's probably time to correct Obamacare's problems.
On the other hand, for reasons having little to do with concern for the poor and uninsured, Republicans are gleefully calling attention to Obamacare's failings while working assiduously to bring the program down.
Using the rules of the House of Representatives to frustrate the will of the majority, Speaker John Boehner has shut down the government and threatens to blow up the economy by refusing to raise the debt limit. Boehner resorted to extortion after losing in congressional votes and at the Supreme Court. Republicans are now losing in the court of public opinion as well.
But however reprehensible and politically ill-advised these actions are, they are only the most visible steps Republicans have taken to undermine Obamacare and prevent millions of Americans from becoming insured. Less noticed are other obstructionist acts, which range from the petty to the shameful.
Some Republican house members have instructed their staffs to provide no assistance to constituents trying to acquire insurance under Obamacare. They have blocked funding for programs to educate Americans about the law and then complained that the administration is doing an inadequate job of informing the public. Meanwhile, others have resorted to simple intimidation.
Sadly, one of them is West Virginia Attorney General Patrick Morrisey. In August Morrisey sent a letter to two West Virginia organizations that had received federal grants to provide "navigators" who would guide consumers through the process of signing up for health insurance. Under the mantle of concern for consumer privacy and deeming federal protections inadequate, Morrisey explained, "State policymakers must consider state-level standards and requirements." He went on to request extensive information about the organizations' business practices in order "to evaluate the role, if any, for state regulatory action." Morrisey then cited specific measures he was considering including state mandated licensing and certification and, in the ultimate irony, a requirement that grantee organizations purchase liability insurance.
In other words, the attorney general who, like others opposed to Obamacare, railed loudly against the law's "individual mandate" that requires Americans to buy health insurance, was himself implying that federal grantees should be forced to buy insurance. And the same man who recently complained that West Virginia is among the states with "the most burdensome regulations for business" was recommending more regulation.
Most insidious, however, was the fact that, while in one light Morrisey's letter could be interpreted as an attempt to gather information, in another light its line of questioning could be seen as a roadmap for the attorney general's office or for plaintiffs' attorneys to use in pursuing possible future claims of negligence against the organizations. In that way Morrisey's letter was only slightly more subtle than a stranger in a fedora sidling up beside you and saying, "That's a pretty car you got. I bet you'd like to keep it that way."
Quite stunning for an attorney general who in other contexts complains loudly about "lawsuit abuse" and government overregulation. All of us, expecially those concerned about those issues, should view with alarm an officeholder who, when it's in his political or ideological interest, wields as weapons the powers and practices he professes to despise.
Of course, long ago Morrisey warned that West Virginia should not expand Medicaid under Obamacare because, he said, it would be too expensive and retard economic growth. Fortunately, the governor and legislature ignored this advice and, as a result, West Virginia has arguably been Obamacare's greatest beneficiary.
So far, more than 50,000 West Virginians have acquired coverage – 81 percent of them with the benefit of federal subsidies that would have been unavailable to most had we followed Morrisey's advice. Meanwhile, in comparable states such as Mississippi and South Carolina that followed Morrisey's advice, fewer than half as many residents qualify for subsidies, the number of the uninsured finding coverage is far smaller and the economies in those states are receiving far less benefit.
It's a shame that, as the rest of West Virginia makes Obamacare work for the good of residents and the economy, we must do so at cross-purposes with an attorney general who seems bent on strangling the child in its crib.

maybe bubble and squeak has more of a soup-like consistency wonders Wordwind
In my experience, bubble and squeak consists of potato and cabbage mixed up dry and usually formed into a cake, but sometimes freeform, and then fried. It should be made from the day before's leftovers. It is delicious and maybe healthy if you use olive oil to fry with.

RE: praties is Gaelic for potatoes
the T in praties is pronounced like a d pradies , just as Patty (Patrick) is Paddy- (as in paddy wagon).
We didn't call it a coddle, but a boiled dinner. (and boiled beef, if you had mostly beef in it, instead of sausage) then again, my family were dubliners, and we just called it stew (but our style of stew, (lamb and beef) is called dublin stew by others, Irish stew just has lamb.)
now days, almost everywhere but NY you can get a NY steak (a cut, like T-bone or sirloin) in NY they are just shell steaks!
Just like there is no canadian bacon in canada, and i suspect, no such thing as a "London Broil" (an other cut of meat for steak) in London._________________________

I don't think it's Gaelic
MacBain's (http://www.ceantar.org/Dicts/MB2/index.html) et al. list buntàta as the Scots Gaelic. MacBain's is an etymological dictionary and it gives the Irish Gaelic as potáta or fataidhe.

boiled dinner
I've probably mentioned this before but it was a long time ago. Boiled dinner here in Newfoundland means salt beef, potatoes, cabbage, peas pudding, carrots, all boiled together. Also called Jiggs' dinner. (I don't think anyone knows who Jiggs was or what that refers to.) It must be a direct descendant of helen's boiled dinner, since so many people here have Irish roots.
I've only had it once, myself, since I'm not a Newfoundlander. The salt beef tasted like corned beef to me. (Which makes sense.) We had a special treat the night we tried Jiggs Dinner - moose - typically associated with Newfoundland although it was actually introduced here, it's not native to the island! It was yummy.

buntàta as the Scots Gaelic...
Irish Gaelic as potáta or fataidhe.
These words all have an obvious derivation from the Spanish patata, which makes sense given that the Spanish originally brought the potato to Europe from South America. But it made me curious about the original name, presumably given by the Incas or a predecessor people.
AHD yielded the following:
Spanish patata, alteration (probably influenced by Quechua papa, white potato) of Taino batata, sweet potato.
Now, I know a little about indigenous languages of Central and South America (and I emphasize, a little), but I had never heard of Taino. So, I looked it up in AHD and was surprised to discover that it is the origin language for a surprising number of words common today (and that it comes from the Arawak people of the Bahamas and the Antilles): savannah, cay, yucca, hammock, mangrove, cassava, hurricane, and barbecue.
So when the Antipodeans toss some prawns on the barby, they are using an Antillean word. Who ever would have thought that the language of a now-extinct people on a smallish group of islands dominated for centuries by the Spanish would have contributed so many words to English? Kind of makes me interested in words, ya know?

an obvious derivation from the Spanish patata
MacBain's comments that they are from English, but, of course, the English is from Spanish (ultimately from Taino). The Scots contains a bit of folk etymology, the bun meaning root.

The "cannon" in colcannon is from the Old Irish ceannan meaning white-headed. The "coddle" in Dublin Coddle is from the transitive verb meaning to cook in water just below the boiling point. The difference between "colcannon" and "bubble and squeak" might be the difference between English and Irish, but that is only a suspicion.

Jiggs was the chief character in the George McManus comic strip Bringing Up Father which ran from around WWI until a few years ago. Jiggs was an Irish laborer who somehow struck it rich. His wife, Maggie, got the Society bug and became super-correct, trying to get in to Society. Jiggs is nearly always drawn wearing formal morning dress with a silk top hat. Although Maggie has made herself over, Jiggs keeps regressing to his old days. He spends as much time as he can in Dinty Moore's saloon (Yes, the canned beef stew is named for this institution) and he always wants corned beef and cabbage. which he can't have at home because it's too low-class. Corned beef and cabbage is the basic boiled dinner, called New England Boiled Dinner in these parts.

I am wondering your opinion of this. monica1968 posted:8/14/2011 8:54:05 AM gosh omen may think i am dumb here but i cannot find the link on age of the earth...but from what i have gathered he is saying is pretty much the things i believe so i will carry o searching ......monica1968 posted:8/14/2011 3:34:30 PM Found it....is two hours long....but if anyone is new to this concept then this is the man to watch.......then if you want some light reading then the books by douglas j kenyon....forbidden history [prehistoric technologies forgotten] he also did a book on the forbidden science and did a brilliant piece on the god particle interviewing someone who rediscoved it....all the sciences long long forgotten...and finally he did one on religions.....is the only one i havent read ..Yet..this planet has been reinvented so to speak many times..by i suspect by many races....although the tablet showing a human looking towards dinosaurs cannot be ignored......neither can the bones found along caves high up along the grand canyon...[all were found to be men..and as time went the grave goods became less ornate and infact being rather simple in comparison.....At a time when it was just men [hybrids/clones], thinking on the strility of a mule...they cannot breed until there genetics were figured out by the more recent set of creators....non of which i would consider to be god..GOD does not equal creation.....creation comes from technology.....not from god....The one true god would not have been so vain to need to create humans god is for tyhe spiritual side of us only but that is another matter....BRAVO OMEN....cracking subjectOmen502 posted:8/14/2011 7:13:31 PM Thank you, but I give all credit to Dr. Kent Hovind. I hope that this will shed a new light on topics maybe turned "sour" by what I would call "power debates" I don't remember where I heard it or even how it was said but what stuck with me was that beliefs are bullets of the wicked. This statement made me think for a moment. I mean how can this be? Well the conclusion I came to and correct me if you think I am wrong but in a world where alot of us are under the influence of twisted teachings, passed on beliefs, and generations of tradition have hindered our decision making skills. I think not only are these "bullets" pointed at our own head but we like to use them in the heat of debate as weapons for the opposing. We should take a step back every once in a while and consider the options. Keep an open mind. I am no exception and am guilty also. We all like to believe in what our ancestors believed. In a sense to "keep us fresh". But just because they believed it doesn't mean they were right. I am not saying anyone is right, but I know Hovind has helped me in my "hour of need". I used to think that everyone needs to believe in something. I may have been wrong. Maybe everyone needs to have faith in something or someone. Even if it is just to keep us sane. I encourage anyone reading this to watch the video and would say all of them are must sees. He speaks of the same issues plagueing us today, the so-called conspiracies, chemtrails, 2012, nwo, and more. I just watched a video where he is speaking of the possible connection between the mandatory vaccinations of our children and linking it to thier auto-immune diseases and sometimes death. If this is true then maybe we all need to focus less on what happened and focus more on the "now". I think if I help one person in thier fight against the very thing that is devouring our spirituality, then I have done my job. spiritech0 posted:8/14/2011 11:59:09 PM Winning!givemebutterflys posted:8/17/2011 12:39:34 PM the earth is bigger because we live work and play in our own feaceses and rotten ancestors we are dirty parosites living short lifes. the quick we die out and perish the bettermonica1968 posted:8/17/2011 2:11:17 PM butterfly......which planet are you on.....the earth isnt bigger because of shit.....is actually smaller than it was originally.......gosh you have a down on the human race.....and you are one of them....or are you ? Omen502 posted:8/17/2011 9:21:23 PM OK. . . I dont know about you but i dont do any of them things in my feces. Anyway the feces we do come into contact with is the mcdonalds that you eat. I do not believe the earth was smaller I have not seen any evidence about that. But I am still trying to find out what this had to do with the video? If you think all humans should die I have to say "you first" I mean my programming makes me feel I want to live.
