Having problems with your Panasonic Toughbook CF-51 Notebook ?

Based on the true story of the legendary lawman, Earp recounts how he brought together the 'Best of the West' to avenge the vicious murder of his beloved Dora. Joined by the famed Bat Masterson, Charlie Bassett, Bill Tilghman and Doc Holliday, Earp rides after the Kenedy brothers, who are on a murder spree that spans from Dodge City to Mexico. Protected by their powerful father, the ruthless brothers know that the law won't touch them, but they gravely underestimated Earp and his posse.

We've just barely started getting familiar with all the fancy technology onboard the latest-generation Mercedes-Benz E-Class, but like children with short attention spans, the e-mail from the German automaker has us looking off at another new toy to play with.
And for good reason. Making a jaw-dropping 603 horsepower, the S version of the new Mercedes-AMG E63 is the fastest and most powerful version of the maker's mid-range model ever. And it even has a new Drift Mode to play with.
"The new E63 models represent the biggest step forward we've ever taken from one generation to the next," boasts AMG Chairman Tobias Moers, pointing to the new variable all-wheel-drive system that gets paired with a biturbo 4.0-liter V-8 on the new E63. (more…)

To help ensure our incredible media outlets can survive through this time of upheaval as the ad-driven model for funding quality journalism falls apart, there needs to be some form of government support to assist those who need it. Longer term, we need the right mix of tax policy and regulatory support to encourage growth and strength in the media industry.
Thanks to the digital revolution, Canadians have access to more news and information than ever before. Public consumption of the news is at historic levels. Despite all that, and despite the capacity to reach more people than ever thought possible before, the economic underpinning for gathering and producing reliable news and information is quickly collapsing.
Why is it that there is more interest generated by fandom than there is by our country's economy? Why, as millennials, are we generally more interested in Hollywood and pop culture than we are about curating our own personal finances? Is it because our attention spans are too short to focus on the complexities of the world around us? Are we too easily bored?
The Internet is almost always part of the tragic narrative. It is killing print newspapers they scribe. Sad news is splashed across the headlines. The loss of the newspaper carrier who tosses your paper onto the front porch early in the morning does not equal the death of news and opinion. Even restructuring newsrooms does not necessarily mean less access to important information.
Media managers are wondering what went wrong. They are asking why journalism doesn't pay any more. If the solutions are hard to discern, they have only to look at the technology they so eagerly embrace. It's the digital technology. It has spread throughout many industries including journalism, like a virus.
At a time when our consumption of the news is at an all-time high, the very institutions at the heart of our news media are in crisis -- and demanding the attention of our political leaders. Postmedia combined newsrooms in Ottawa, Edmonton, Calgary and Vancouver in a move that not only saw many talented and dedicated journalists pushed out the door, but also saw distinctive voices quieted.
For the last 30 years or so, Canadians have repeatedly flagged healthcare as the most important national concern and the issue they want their political leaders to prioritize. Surveys and studies and polls and panels -- there have been plenty -- all come up with the same finding: Canadians care about healthcare.
In 2013, one of the most common refrains I heard while selling print ads to small business owners was "We are concentrating on our online advertising". There is no doubt there is, and should be, an upward trend towards owning your online footprint. However, the idea of marketing exclusively online for a brick and mortar business is unwise to say the least. Conversely, an online business should not close their minds to traditional advertising.
In terms of visible minorities, the Globe and Mail is doing no better than its national print-based competitors in providing a forum for ethnic Canadian voices. This diverse demographic is projected to grow to a third of the Canadian population by 2030. Is traditional Canadian media doing anything to include, reflect or address their experiences in the multicultural mosaic, building on the wave of the present and future? The examples are few and far between.
Print journalism is changing fundamentally. Three dramatic events last week make the point: On October 18, Newsweek magazine announced it will become a digital only publication in 2013, ending 80 years in print. Newspapers have failed, so far, to acquire the skill sets required for print journalism in the 21st century.
Slowly, slowly, the dwindling band of journalists who survive all the cuts are being acclimatized to the notion that their job is no longer to serve the people in our democracy -- a tradition proudly built up over the past couple of hundred years, often at great cost -- but to serve their employer. So why don't we, the people, take over -- subsidize our precious democratic journalism ourselves? Here's the plan.
Seems that when you spend an hour watching Canadian TV news stories about politics, you get only about 15 minutes of real information. These scary numbers come from the highly respected charitable Samara Institute today. Samara has spent months doing all the research, the number crunching, and the drawing of conclusions. Will the newsrooms listen? Probably not.
When the Mirror was launched in the mid-1980s, it touted its independence and social purpose. I remember going to benefit concerts and parties organized to help it get off the ground and survive. But it's been shut down, and I fear even an online version wouldn't be able to pay even the most abysmal of salaries, or even reassert itself as a go-to source for young Montreal anglos.

I think I was bitten by this the other day, but fixed it the "cheating" way as I only had one file, I suppose I should have posted a bug report - sorry. The html2document.xsl stylesheet assumes that there will be an H1 at the start of all HTML documents. Obviously this is not the case. I worked around it by putting an H1 at the start of my file, which was a fine quick fix for me (and a good quick way of testing if this is your problem too). See the following in html2document.xsl <!--infer structure from sibling headings--> <xsl:template match="body"> <body> <xsl:for-each select="h1"> <section> <xsl:if test="a/@name"> <xsl:attribute name="id"><xsl:value-of select="a/@name"/></xsl:attribute> </xsl:if> --- snip --- Ross

The Long Walk, which runs from Windsor Castle's George IV Gateway to Snow Hill in Windsor Great Park is a bit of a puzzle from the magickal point of view, a sort of Stonehenge reimagined by John Nash.
Clearly druidic in inspiration, it is aligned with the winter sun: on the morning of the winter solstice, from the window of the royal apartments, the sun would be seen to rise directly behind the equestrian statue of George III. The monarchy presumably harvest the resulting earth energies, renewing and consolidating their powers with the turning year.

If you raised an eyebrow in suspicion when McLaren insisted its new 650S would join its lineup in tandem with – and not as a replacement for – the MP4-12C, we're with you. The 650S is, after all, based closely on the 12C, distinguishing itself essentially with a revised shape, updated equipment and more power. And with the Spider version having debuted alongside the coupe in Geneva, there's really little room left for the 12C at all.

A good solid year separated the release of the McLaren MP4-12C and its Spider counterpart. McLaren isn't waiting that long, however, to reveal its new 650S Spider – in fact it's presenting both versions at the same time here at the Geneva Motor Show. But while Woking has given us plenty of details and photos of the coupe to chew on in the lead up to the show, it has just now revealed the full skinny on its open-topped companion, presented here in a new shade of McLaren's signature orange.

New Braunfels Herald Zeitung (Newspaper) - February 12, 2003, New Braunfels, Texas New Braunfels WEDNESDAY February 12, 2003 mm14 pages in 2 sectionsHerald-Zeitung Vol, 152, No. 78Serving New Braunfels and Comal County since 1852 50 cents PERRY EAA seeks changes from state legislature By Sean Bowlin Staff Writer Two suggested changes arising from a 2002 Edwards Aquifer Authority election in New Braunfels are among seven proposed amendments the EAA is asking the Texas Legislature to consider in order to fix voting and water GILPIN issues. The EAA cannot fix issues the issues administratively, EAA District 7 Director Doug Miller of New Braunfels said. Since the Legislature created the EAA (in 1993), the issues must be corrected as amendments. The first proposed amendment would establish residency requirements for candidates seeking appointment or election to the authority's board of directors, and create a process to certify residency of those candidates. "We had a little problem in the last election," Gregg Ellis, Edwards Aquifer Authority general manager, said. That problem surfaced when Cheryl Gilpin, who did not live in the EAA's District 8, ran for the District 8 seat and won. She fulfilled the EAA's residency requirement by moving into District 8 before taking office. Ellis said under the first proposed amendment, a candidate seeking election for a director's spot would have to five in the district he or she is running from for at least six months. Gilpin said Monday that she thought the amendmentSee EAA/3A Perry outlines strategy to fix budget By Sean Bowlin Staff Writer Saying economic storm clouds "cast a dark shadow over our state," Texas Governor Rick Perry called for no new taxes, balancing the state budget and governmental adherence to his top three priorities — education, security and fiscal responsibility. "Every " dollar Texas! spent by govern-_ ment — IE every line-item in the budget — must be analyzed and justified," Perry said Tuesday in his "State of the State" speech before the Legislature. Perry, in emphasizing fiscal responsibility, asked this year's legislators to produce a budget "more transparent and easier to understand" than past budgets. With regard to saving money, Perry was specific. He said the government could save taxpayers $1.7 billion by adopting Comptroller Carol Keeton Strayhorn's e-Texas ideas. Another $500 million could be saved by redirecting Telecommunications Infrastructure Funds to the technology allotment for schools, increasing the per student investment to $35 per student, Perry said. Perry also said that by making better estimates on higher education income, reducing special item projects and asking community colleges to pay K. JESSIE SLATEN/HerakJ-Zeitung Pete Zimmerman and Nancy Bidas take a turn to the tunes of the Seven Dutchmen on the Knights of Columbus dance floor at the Seventh Annual New Braunfels Polka Fest this past year. Polka time! Eighth annual two-day dance event kicks off Saturday By Betty Taylor Herald-Zeitung Correspondent Find those dancing shoes — the serious ones. The Eighth Annual New Braunfels Polka Fest rolls into town for two filii days of polkas, waltzes and yes, even the chicken dance, Saturday and Sunday at the Knights of Columbus Hall, 111 Lands St. 'We will alternate among eight bands on two days," said Gordon Zunker. Zunker is with the Cloverleaf Orchestra and also is president of the Polka Band Leaders of New Braunfels. We go from ll a.m. to 9:30 p.m. Saturday and from ll a.m. to 7:30 p.m. Sunday. There are a lot of people there on both days. It is always surprising to us that they are there when we start, and they are there when we quit and dancing all the time in between. I don't know how they do it. I couldn't do it, but they do it," he said. Tickets for the festival are $7.75 in advance or $9 at the door Saturday; $6.75 in advance or $8 at the door Sunday; or $12.50 in advance or $15 at the door for two-day tickets. Advance tickets can be bought at the Greater New Braunfels Chamber of Commerce or at China-n-Things. For information, call 625-9288. Zunker said dancing and a love for music is what the festival is all about. "We play the polkas, waltzes and what I call the old-time music, such as the schottische and the seven-step," he said. Pearly Sowell thinks the New Braunfels Polka Fest is unique because it also offers the grand march, which often is played at weddings instead of festivals. The lifelong New Braunfels resident and leader of Oma and the Dom paris remembers a time when families would attend dances together. 'They would bring along a blanket for the kids to he down on while everyone danced," she said. "We will do the grand march about 5:15 p.m. on Saturday," she said. 'Abu know, you don't have to know how to dance to participate in the Grand See POLKA/7A a proportionate share of their insurance costs, the state could save, and recover, $1.1 billion. Additionally, Perry said he could close the point of collection for the gas tax and save $300 million; close the "Delaware loophole" and generate $400 million; and save $3.8 billion by reducing current appropriations levels by See BUDGET/7A Council members agree on road vote Unanimous decision is a rare occurrence By Ron Maloney Staff Writer Anyone who sees the New Braunfels City Council as mired in a 4-3 split on economic development or infrastructure issues should have been at Monday nights meeting. Early in the meeting came votes of 5-2 and 6-1 that paired Mayor Adam Cork with District 4 Councilmem-ber Robert Kendrick on some issues. But the show-stopper came at the end of the meeting when council voted unanimously to issue nearly $6 million in debt to finance three large street and drain projects believed to qualify for economic development funding. The projects are Gruene Road, the Gruene Road hike and bike trail and the County Line Road extension to Farm-to-Market Road 1044. Bonds for the projects will be issued against sales tax money earmarked for economic development as part of the 4B economic development program. The vote came after more than an hour of motions and discussions about the city's big-ticket street and drain projects, as well as its other transportation improvement needs. Mayor Adam Cork Tuesday praised council for reaching consensus that will enable the city to begin to move forward on three of its largest street and drain projects.

JESSIE SLATEN/Herald-Zeitung Cory Moczygemba takes a close look at one of the prize rifles at Saturday's Big Buck Contest dinner. Both Cory and his brother, Clay, were winners in the annual essay contest. The fifth annual Big Buck event drew 363 entries, and Saturday's dinner served more than 400. Sandy Nolte, president of the board of directors, said officials are still counting the money raised. By Ron Maloney Staff Writer Comal County wants to renovate its historic courthouse and is looking for state help to make it happen. Thursday, commissioners will hear a presentation on the Texas Historic Courthouse Preservation Program. Commissioners' Court is conducted at 8:15 a.m. in the commissioners' courtroom, Commissioners' Court Building, 199 Main Plaza. County Judge Danny Seheel said this would be the third round of state grants for courthouse renovation or preservation. The county's historic courthouse needs quite a bit of work — particularly in cli mate control and renovation to the County Court-at-law facilities, Scheel said. "We need a lot of work done. The air conditioning is out; the heating system is out and they can't really control it," Scheel said. "It takes several hours when you have to change from air to heat so a lot of time it is without air and without heat." Comal County sat out the first two rounds of grants, Scheel said, in favor of counties that have older courthouses that had more pressing preservation needs.

The guys who work the front desk are so sweet and want to help. However, we booked a queen bed and it most definitely a full. The bathrooms weren't super clean, fx there was a bloody towel on the floor. The location is superb, as long as you can deal with the room itself, it's a perfect location, close to some really awesome bars and clubs. We will be back, just because you can't beat the price for this area. Also the burritos served downstairs are bomb drunchies.

Study Addresses The Unique Issues Faced By Deaf And Hard Of Hearing Physicians
A team of researchers from the University of California, Davis, the University of Texas Health Science Center at San Antonio and the University of Michigan surveyed DHoH physicians and medical students to determine whether these and other accommodations enhance career satisfaction and their ability to provide care. This research has important implications for DHoH medical students, educators, employers and patients.
The article, titled "Deafness Among Physicians and Trainees: A National Survey,"* appears in the February 2013 issue of Academic Medicine.
"We found that many deaf and hard-of-hearing students and physicians are interested in primary care practice and have a special affinity with those who also have a hearing loss," said Darin Latimore, assistant dean for student and resident diversity at UC Davis School of Medicine and one of the study's coauthors. "By enhancing training for a diverse range of physicians, we can improve quality of care and access for underserved populations, especially individuals who are deaf or have a hearing loss."
The study showed that while DHoH physicians were aided by accommodations they spent significant amounts of personal time arranging for these tools. Institutional support was a critical lynchpin in determining job satisfaction among DHoH physicians and students. Prior to this study, little was known about DHoH physicians in the clinical workplace.
The team created an 89-question electronic survey that covered demographics, accommodations, job satisfaction and personal health. Recruitment was a big challenge, as there is no database for DHoH clinicians. To overcome it, the researchers adopted snowball sampling, in which participants recruit peers to take the survey. Ultimately, 86 medical students, residents and practicing physicians were recruited and 56 completed the survey.
Of the participants, 73 percent described their hearing loss as severe or profound; with all but one having bilateral loss, meaning both ears have a loss of hearing. The majority of the practicing physicians (68 percent) were in primary care, while 23 percent of trainees planned to enter primary care. On average, practicing physicians reported caring for DHoH patients 10 percent of the time. The majority of trainees were uncertain how many DHoH patients they would see.
"Our results confirm that DHoH medical students and physicians use a wide range of accommodations, implying that adapting accommodations to each individual's needs will be more successful than any single approach," said Christopher Moreland, assistant clinical professor at the University of Texas Health Science Center at San Antonio and the study's lead author.
The most common accommodation was amplified stethoscopes (89 percent). Participants also used auditory equipment (32 percent), computer-assisted real-time captioning (21 percent), signed interpretation (21 percent) and oral interpretation (14 percent). The survey also examined phone use, which can be problematic for hearing-impaired physicians, and found the majority (56 percent) used amplified phones.
At the UC Davis School of Medicine, for example, a third-year student on a surgical rotation used tablet technology to link the sounds in the operating room to an off-site medical transcriptionist. The student was able to "listen" - in real time - to every word uttered by the surgeon performing the operation. The transcriptionist, working like a court reporter, received audio from the operating room and simultaneously typed the surgeon's words, which the student then watched on an overhead monitor while also observing - and even assisting when asked - the surgeon.
The survey also found that DHoH physicians and trainees invested a great deal of personal time arranging accommodations: submitting requests or coordinating with captionists or interpreters. While most spent around two hours per week making these arrangements, two medical students estimated they spent 10 hours each week arranging accommodations. Overall, participants appeared satisfied with their accommodations.
"Successful accommodations may contribute to career satisfaction," added Moreland, who completed his medical residency at UC Davis and medical school at the University of Texas with the assistance of a sign-language interpreter. "This, combined with these physicians' relatively high interest in serving the DHoH community, suggests that recruiting and effectively training DHoH medical students may benefit the health of deaf and hard of hearing people."
In addition to being the second largest disabled group of Americans, the hearing-impaired face disparities in cancer screening and other care and have a higher incidence of depression, making their medical needs a high priority.
"This study highlights a little understood but clearly growing group of physicians who are demonstrating that hearing loss doesn't keep them from being a physician." said study co-author Philip Zazove, professor and the George A. Dean, M.D. Chair of Family Medicine at the University of Michigan. "These doctors connect with DHoH patients in a way that hearing physicians can't."

Future impact the perfect legacy for Bryant
By Mark Lamport-Stokes
LOS ANGELES (Reuters) - For all the NBA titles and All-Star selections he has piled up during an illustrious career, Los Angeles Lakers Kobe Bryant wants his legacy to be judged on how he has impacted the sport's future not the past.
The 37-year-old shooting guard has already established himself as one of the greatest players ever in the National Basketball Association and will be retiring from competition after the 2015-16 season, his 20th in the league.
"I try to look at my legacy and how it impacts the future of the game," Bryant said on a conference call with international media on Monday. "I'm not looking at my legacy from the standpoint of where I fit in with the greatest of all time.
"For me, it's a moot point and a shallow argument. I think the most important thing and the most beautiful thing is how does your legacy impact the generation of players to come?
"If what I've done and what I've stood for these 20 years has impacted the players today and the players tomorrow in a positive way, in a way they can then carry that legacy on themselves and impact the generation to follow, that's much more significant than where I stand in history."
A five-times NBA champion who has appeared in 17 All-Star games, Bryant has done it all on the court yet even as he prepares to take his final bow there are goals to be achieved.
Though slowed by age and a slew of injuries, Bryant has set his sights on making his competitive farewell at next year's Rio Olympics.
"That's something I am actually pressing for," said Bryant, who won gold medals with the U.S. Olympic team in 2008 and 2012. "Being part of the Olympics is such a beautiful experience. Continued...

New Braunfels Herald Zeitung (Newspaper) - June 26, 1987, New Braunfels, Texas Herald-/e/(i/ng New Braunfels Te*as1987's record rainfall a blessing, but. Friday June 26.1987 Page 5 By DAVID SFDFNO Associated Press Writer BKJ BAKK, Texas I AIN Three summers ago, Larry Settle, owner of Big I,ake Farm and Ranch feed store, had a tough time making ends meet. the drought that had parched West Texas rangeland forced many ranchers to sell livestock, curtailing their need to buy feed from Settle. Man, it was tough," Settle said, explaining the amount of feed sold during that time was down about 80 percent. The water supply for the town of 8,500 also was dwindling, leading residents to worry and he cautious in their water usage. But today, because of recent rains across the state. Big I-ake's drinking water supply, like that of other Texas cities, is in good shape. And Settle's business is back on track. Many rivers, lakes, streams and aquifers are filled to near capacity, but people across the state still are warned about conservation measures. In normally dry West lexas where farmers are accustomed to irrigating their fields, too much rain can be harmful. The late May and early June rains were good for ranchers and city residents, but not for many West Texas farmers who had to replant or put off planting cotton for weeks and now stand to lose millions of dollars Wilbert Braden, who farms about 2,800 acres of cotton, wheat and inilo near Midkiff. south of Midland, said his cotton crop will be late because he had to replant. "Back in the drought years you had black clouds all over and it would never rain Now you see all these blacks clouds and it rains "You think back and ask. Why, good Lord, why during those lean years, why couldn't it rain'1' " he said. "I guess a person gets accustomed to the weather out here and when you get the wet weather it's difficult to handle," Braden said. "The thing about West Texas is when you talk about average you are talking about extremes," said Charles Stichler, an agronomist with the Texas A&M Extension Service in Fort Stockton. "On the weather, you can't count on anything," he said. "You just never know when you're going to get a rain or when you're going to get a drought." Big I^ke, about 80 miles west of San Angelo, has no lake at all. About five miles south of town, a sign on a pasture that fills during heavy thunderstorms makes light of the town's name. "Who pulled the plug on the Big I^ke''" the sign reads. Here, the greatest demand for water came in 1983, when oifield roughnecks and town residents began to deplete the community's water supply. We just couldn't supply all the needs," said Settle, a member of the Reagan County Water Supply District. "Ranchers had to cut back on their stock because there was no rain. The animals were getting too expensive. Several people sold completely out." County residents approved a $2 million bond issue to pay for a new water field at the nearby Rocker B Ranch, and city officials restricted home car washings and lawn watering through 1985, according to city secretary Tony Willie. The town's water field is on the Ogallala Aquifer and is replenished by rainfall. "Now. we have an ample supply of water up until the year 2020," Willie said State Sen. Bill Sims, D-San Angelo, knows about having too much or too little water. Sims' 25th senatorial district stretches west into El Paso County, south to Del Rio, northeast into the Hill Country and north to Midland County. Sims is a rancher in Concho County and droughts are not new to him The dry summers of 1984 and 1985 were only part of the problem for many farmers and ranchers who went out of business, he said. High interest rates, low prices, and cold winters in 1983 and 1984 were contributing factors, he said. In fiscal 1984 ending in June, 5,610 Texas farmers and ranchers went out of business. That number has risen to 8,960 for 1987 already, before the year ends June 30. according to the American Bankers Association We had four or five elements. Any one of these could have broken us," Sims said. We ourselves were very fortunate that we had enough grass during that time." The city of San Angelo, with a population of 80.000, faced water shortage threats in 1984 and 1985 The three lakes. O.C. Fisher Reservoir, Twin Buttes Reservoir and I^ake Nasworthy. began drying up and water quality deteriorated. Water recreational activities were limited and some water conservation measures were imposed By 1985, city officials were pumping in water from Robert I^e's i-ake Spence, about 40 miles to the north, but that didn't help water quality much, said San Angelo City Manager Stephen Brown Even with the recent spring rains, which have renewed both the supply and quality of water, the city keeps a watchful eye on its resources and recently banned residents from watering lawns in the afternoon hours during the summer. But across the region, cities like San Angelo are hopeful these days with the groundbreaking of Stacy Dam, a reservoir that will provide drinking water for 500,000 people in West Texas, including Abilene. Midland and San Angelo. The $70 million project, being constructed by Brown and Root Inc. of Houston, should be completed within three years. It took officials from the Colorado River Municipal Water District and numerous West Texas cities IO years to get approval from state and federal officials. The reservoir, to be located near I>eaday. will consist of 19.000 surface acres in Runnels, Concho and Coleman counties, and will have a capacity of 554,000 acre feet of water That compares with 489.000 acre feet of water at I^ake Spence and 204.000 acre feet at Lake Thomas, south of Snyder. "I don't think you'll see anybody in West Texas constructing another lake after Stacy," Midland City Manager Fred Poe said "There just aren't any more rivers to dam up and create a lake "That's why we fought so hard to get Stacy We just thought it was the last place for another lake Ironically or appropriately, the Stacy Dam groundbreaking ceremony had to be moved to the Ballinger High School parking lot 25 miles away because heavy thunderstorms flooded the reservoir area on May 14 and 15. The rains continued for about a month in parts of West and Central Texas, leaving death and destruction in their wake. In San Antonio, three people died in floods in early June during the city's wettest 30-day period since 1935. San Antonio got 18 41 inches of rain between May 13 and June ll The damage to San Antonio streets because of the rains has topped $2 million Canyon I^ake, near New Braunfels, filled to near capacity and water will be released for the next six weeks, making water sports on that lake and the Guadalupe River dangerous, officials have warned Dear AbbyImpeachment sponsor-issue not immediate need Husband's Double Lives Will at Some Point Collide DLAR ABBY I am 23. "Elliott" is 45 I am single. Last year he celebrated his 25th wedding anni versary He and his wife get along very well He just happens to love me, too. She knows nothing of me, vet I know so much about her. I have known land loved) Elliott for three years and we have a beautiful 7 month old son. Elliott paid my way through school and helps me with my bills, He never led me to believe he would marry me, and I never pressured him to All I want is for him to tie a part of my son's life For now, he sees hts s/m every day and loves him very much Elliott is basically living a double life We spend a lot of time together I am a Catholic and know it was wrong to get involved with a married man, but it's too late to feel guilty now. Abby, should his wife be told about this? I don't want her to be hurt, but something like this could give her a heart attack Elliott and his wife have a 24 year old son whom I have met. Wouldn't it lie nice if he knew he had a half brother? Should this be brought out in the open? Or is silence the best solution? KEEPING QUIET IN ARIZONA DEAR KEEPING: What are Elliott's thoughts on the matter? And what will you tell your son w hen he gets old enough to know that his "Daddy" is not married to his mother — hut to some other lady? As I see it, if Elliott loves your child and continues to see him daily, there is no way he c an keep the truth from his wife and family. Nor should he. But he should be the one to inform his family. DEAR ABBY: My husband and I live in a nice suburban neighbor hood. Our nextdoor neighbor is a very pleasant young woman who lives alone She comes home from work in the middle of the afternoon and often sunbathes in her yard for an hour We are the only ones who can see into her yard Sometimes she wears a bikini swimsuit and sometimes she wears an ordinary brassiere and a short panty girdle with the garters tucked up out of sight I once made some catty remarks to my husband about the bra and panty girdle outfit, and he asked me to explain what was wrong with it. He said it actually covered about twice as much of her as the bikini What are your thoughts on this0 FRIENDLY NEIGHBOR DEAR NEIGHBOR: How much is covered is not the issue; more to the point, a bikini is appropriate attire for sunbathing — lingerie is not. However, since your neighbor was sunbathing in the privacy of her own yard (at least she thought she was), she is not accountable for her attire. DEAR ABBY What is wrong with kids today, anyway? I am talking about grandchildren You go to visit friends and their grand children come into the living room and turn on the television so loud you can't be heard when you talk — and you can't hear what the other person is saying either' I don't care for the television programs the kids turn on. Besides, if I wanted to watch television I would have stayed home. Please print this.

Then another neigh bor reported hearing hysterical laughter coming from that house Well, it was later learned that the man had been tying his wives to the bedpost, and tickling the soles of their bare feet with a feather* He continued until the hysteria did them in In truth, they were tickled to death. BAT HOLLINGSWORTH, BRITISH COLUMBIA AUSTIN (AP) — A resolution calling for a legislative inquiry into possible impeachment proceedings against Gov.

D-El Paso, and Ai Edwards. D-Houston. filed the resolution this week following a Methodist bishops' report on the Southern Methodist University pay-for-play football scandal.

Bill Hobby sought to downplay the impeachment talk that started when the bishops' indicated that Clements, as chairman of SMU's board of governors, tried to cover ud the scheme that led to severest sanctions ever against a collegiate football team Hobby, a Democrat who would become governor if Clements, a Republican, were ousted, said he sees no reason to consider such a move. His administration has been unfortunate for the state, as there have been other unfortunate administrations, but I see no grounds for impeachment.''

At first glance, the forecast for the year ahead calls for clear skies.
Inflation and interest rates remain relatively low. State and local tax revenues are up.
Fed up with traffic congestion, in November voters in 14 states agreed to $40 billion in new or higher taxes and bonds to build and maintain streets, roads, and bridges. Initiatives passed not only in the largest states (such as California, where voters approved a state-record-breaking $20 billion bond issue), but also in those with declining populations (like New Jersey, where voters approved a gas-tax increase expected to generate $78 million annually).
Also late last year, Texas became the first state to be allowed to use private-activity bonds to raise money for highway projects under the Safe, Accountable, Flexible, Efficient Transportation Equity Act: A Legacy for Users (SAFETEA-LU), the five-year, $244 billion surface-transportation guaranteed-funding legislation President Bush signed into law in 2005. Under SAFETEA-LU, states can issue and transfer to private companies up to $15 billion in tax-exempt bonds; Texas is using the provision to raise almost $2 billion.
The Bush administration has allocated $400 million this year to the Department of Homeland Security's Infrastructure Protection Program, and after factoring in material costs and inflation, the American Road & Transportation Builders Association expects highway and bridge construction to grow 1% to 2%.
But dig a little deeper, and the outlook gets murkier.
Though price increases have slowed, asphalt and cement remain prohibitively expensive (see article on page 29).
To balance their budgets, many states are cutting shared-revenue programs to local governments, prompting them, in turn, to reduce the amount of general funds available for public services—or, rather, public works, as police and fire remain politically immune to spending cuts.
In addition to accounting for retiree benefits, a Government Accounting Standard Board (GASB) rule that requires public employers to reveal the full future cost of retiree health care—not just this year's cost—went into effect Dec. 15. According to The Economist(Nov. 18, 2006), many states can barely meet their pension requirements, much less retirees' health care costs.
User fees also are under attack, especially from the telecommunications industry, which is a vital source of permitting fees.
According to a national coalition of cities, counties, and finance officers, state and local governments nationwide could lose up to $8 billion a year in revenue if a bill that would exempt some telecommunication services from taxes and user fees (including right of way fees) becomes law this year.
Even if the measure fails, fees for other services—like water—are under pressure from states that have imposed levy freezes that prevent rate increases.
To get a handle on how public works departments are being financially supported in their efforts to care for the infrastructure, both on a day-to-day level as well as for major improvements, we asked readers in early November to share their 2007 budgetary expectations. We received 440 responses, a 1.4% response rate.
We also asked readers what activities represent the greatest challenge for their department this year. Water, wastewater, and stormwater issues edged slightly ahead of streets, roads, and bridges—not surprising, given the age of much of the nation's sanitary sewer systems and federal regulations that are prompting communities to establish utilities to pay for required improvements to stormwater systems.
Also not surprisingly, larger communities are receiving larger budget increases.
While parks and recreation are often the first to go when general funds get low, staffing in all departments is becoming increasingly difficult. Salaries aren't high enough to attract and keep talent, departments face hiring freezes that force overtime (sometimes without pay), and positions aren't being filled after workers retire.
To continue providing quality service with fewer bodies, many departments are outsourcing non-core activities—but they're not always satisfied with the results. "Contractors do a good or adequate job in the beginning of the year but become less effective as the year goes by," says one respondent from the Midwest. "They take their work for granted."
Design-build, a project-delivery method where a single entity is responsible for both designing and constructing a project, was mentioned by respondents in almost every region of the country as a way to manage costs. Most states have passed or are considering legislation that alters procurement statutes to allow public agencies to enter into design-build contracts. Only seven states—Alabama, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Michigan, Rhode Island, and Wyoming—lack such legislation.
In the end, respondents were sanguine about their role in delivering public services, as evidenced by the one who said, "Things will be what you make of them."

Six Hot Tips on Cool Air Conditioning
Summer is here, and it's time to start thinking about your car's AC system! Nobody likes driving around in a hot, stuffy car, and a car with an AC system which only works marginally is somehow almost even worse than one which doesn't work at all. Let's go through a few tips which can help you keep your ride a little more comfortable this summer…
Remember a cars AC system is really a heat exchanger which moves hot air out of your vehicle, then replaces it with cold air. One thing you can do to help improve its efficiency is to leave your windows down an inch or two (if possible) when you park the car, helping to prevent excess heat buildup. When you start the car and begin to drive off, lower all the windows for the first minute or two to help move hot air out of the car more quickly, giving the AC system a chanc ...[more]
Get Ready for Summer Road Trips with New Tires
This Season, Beware of Potholes
As the weather warms up, the road hazards of snow and ice seem to fade with the cold, but with changing seasons come new risks to be aware of. Springtime tends to be wet and rainy, with melting snow and ice, and climbing temperatures. This becomes a perfect recipe for creating potholes, those sneaky annoyances that can wreak havoc on your tires. During the winter, cracks form due to moisture and ice expanding weakened fractures in the road surface. As the cracks get worse they can become torn out of the road by the weight of passing cars, winter chains, or studded tires. In areas with heavy spring and winter rainfall sinkholes can form with the potholes, creating even deeper road hazards. Because potholes can form on any road surface, keeping a di ...[more]

Scientists have discovered a 'super-earth' which could have a life-supporting climate.
The planet lies in a multi-world solar system 42 light years from the sun and is seven times the size of earth.
Previously, the orange star HD 40307 was believed to host three planets, reports the BBC.
All three planets were too close to the star to support liquid water but this newly-discovered 'super earth' is far enough away to support liquid water, according to research to appear in Astronomy and Astrophysics.
University of Hertfordshire professor Hugh Jones said the planet's 197-day year means its climate might be sufficient for life.
"The longer orbit of the new planet means that its climate and atmosphere may be just right to support life," said Jones.
"This planet - or indeed any moons that it has - lie on an orbit comparable to Earth, increasing the probability of it being habitable."
It is, of course, too early to confirm any other similarities but the discovery will give hope to scientists of discovering other exoplanets – 'super-earths' circling sun-like stars.
Current telescopes are of course not strong enough to directly observe the planet, but the hope is a future generation of telescopes at some point may be powerful enough, with David Pincher, another researcher at the University saying the planet is a 'natural target for the next generation of large telescopes, both on the ground and in space'.
The scientific team used the Harps instrument at the La Sill facility in Chile to make the discovery.
Harps does not directly spot planets but instead detects slight changes in colour of a stars' light.
"We pioneered new data analysis techniques including the use of the wavelength as a filter to reduce the influence of activity on the signal from this star," said University of Hertfordshire researcher and lead author of the paper Mikko Tuomi.
"This significantly increased our sensitivity and enabled us to reveal three new super-Earth planets around the star known as HD 40307, making it into a six-planet system."
Last month, scientists discovered the nearest planet outside our solar system, just four light years away.
However, the planet, which circles the Alpha Centurai star, is outside the habitable zone – too close to the star – and incapable of supporting life.

Chapter 1: Welcome to Salem - Page 6
"I appreciate the help unpacking, but you really didn't have to do it." Katie said to me as we were walking out of the dorm together. Feeling a bit weird for trashing the dorm room, I decided to help my new roommate unpack and get setup in our room. That, and I wanted to deter her mind away from the idea that she may have seen me do something completely improbable. But the fact of the matter is this: in my possession is a wand and it may or may not have magical properties. If anyone finds out about this, my career, heck, my life might be in peril! "I hope you like ice cream Abby!"
"Er…it's Abigail. And yes I love ice cream." I responded as we walked down the cobblestone walkway towards the ice cream shop off campus. In thanks, Katie decided to treat me to something sweet and the first thing that came to mind, as well as the furthest place away from the magical crime scene I created, was the ice cream shop a block away from campus. As students, we are allowed to leave campus and go in town for whatever we need. What will prevent kids from running away you might ask? Well…nothing really. But if this school is as prestige as it makes it to be, then there is no reason for kids to run away. It's their loss in the long run. As Katie and I were about to cross the street off campus, I noticed off the corner of my eye a certain blonde hair woman with a tight hair bun. I instantly recognized her as the Headmaster, and right beside her were three students.
She said it herself that she will be the reason why a good portion of the students won't be seeing their next academic career. Did she already bust three students on the first day?
"So what brings you to Salem, Abby?"
"Abigail." I corrected again. "And I came here for the school. Heard this place was a good place to get an education and whatnot." I said to her, essentially lying since I didn't know this place existed until a few weeks ago but she didn't have to know that. "What brings you here? I imagine it's for the same reasons." I said as I opened the door to the ice cream store and held it open.
"Me? I came here for the magic."
And like a deer caught in headlights, my eyes instantly widen as I heard that word.
"M-Magic? Y-you mean those rumors about the school, right?" I said as Katie walked up to the cashier and gestured both of our orders.
"Rumors? What are you talking about? You're telling me you ACTUALLY came here for the knowledge?" She said, surprised by my response. If anything, I was the one that's surprised. Katie got our ice cream cones and handed me mine.
"I mean…this school is known for it's academics and prestige….right?" I asked, taking a small lick.
"HECK NO!" She yelled, gesturing with the hand that held her ice cream. I honestly wasn't sure what I was more scare of: her enthusiasm or ice cream that's about to hit the floor. "This place is weird! Like…capital 'W' weird! Haven't you heard of the strange stories? The ghost that haunt the south library? The groundskeeper who is actually a zombie? The story of the twins who lures people outside and slices them up in the rose garden to use them as fertilizer-!"
"Stop! Stop! I get it!" I said to her as I looked at her with disbelief. What was scary was that she was staring at me with the same expression.
"Oh my God. You actually don't know. At first, I thought it was one of those taboo things that no one talks about. Heck, when I tried talking to people about it, they either clam up or they walk away from me really fast. It's as if they were trying to avoid the conversation. But you…you really don't know what this school is…!"
"Oh yeah? And what exactly is this school?" I asked as we both walked out of the store.
"Salem Buckingham Academy is hiding something. It's a school full of mystery and strange occurrences that no one can solve meaning that the school MUST be hiding something big. No one could figure it out…until now!"
"Yeah? And what do you mean by that?"
"Glad you asked Abby! I'm going to be the one that debunks those mysteries! No stone will be left unturned as long as I'm here! In four years, I'm going to discover the mystery behind this school and show everyone what this school is hiding!" She declared, again, gesturing with the hand that held her ice cream.
"T-That sounds like a plan…" I said to her, laughing nervously. Little did she know that I'm now part of the Salem mystery.
For lack of better words…I'm a 'witch'.
"Glad you think so, because I'm recruiting you to my cause Abby!"

What is the importance of names in "Everyday Use"?For example, what does "Wangero Leewanika Kemanjo"?
1 Answer | Add Yours
Names are very important in Walker's fine short story "Everyday Use." They represent a relationship to heritage and identity. When Dee renames herself Wangero Leewanika Kemanjo, she's trying to claim the right and ability to control her own destiny. She wants to be the person she decides she should be. That's admirable, but she does so in a way that sets aside her family's heritage, and, in a way, shows a lack of respect for it. Dee doesn't see it this way. She says, "I couldn't bear it any longer, being named after the people who oppress me." For her, the heritage isn't one of pride, but of oppression, even shame.
