Jon: In the Village
Several days had passed, and there was no sign of Katrina or Nellie. As I road toward the safe house to check on them, my thoughts were grim. How could I live with myself if something happened to Katrina? Oh, my sweet Kat. I've never even gotten the chance to call her that. A lone tear ran down my cheek at the thought.
Even before I reached the village, I could sense something was wrong. The village was a buzz. People were milling around, but their expressions told a different story than the normal workings of a small village.
I urged my horse to step toward a lady carrying a basket of potatos. "What has happened?" I asked.
She was a little startled at first, almost dropping her basket, but soon she recognized me for who I was. "Jon Tilman, is that you?"
I laughed. "Why, yes, is that you, Mary Gilheim?" After she smiled back, I asked again. "What has happened here? Y'all look different."
"We caught a traitor!" With the words out of her mouth, my jaw tensed. Of course, the news only got worse. "Yeah, and we burned down the barn they were hiding in."
It took all of my strength to keep my voice even. "You said you caught someone, so he is still here in town?"
"Oh, yes, locked up where traitors should be, but it is a she ... not a he."
I strode into the Sheriff's office a few minutes later. The Sheriff, Marty Gilheim, sat in his chair, leaning back with his feet on the desk. He was eating a pastry of some sort. Red filling, probably cherry, oozed out, dropping on his white shirt.
He saw me about the same time he discovered the dribbled mess. He lurched his feet off the desk, reaching for a napkin. His sloppy motion, though, blew the napkins to the floor.
"Jon, it has been a while since we have seen you," he blurted while reaching for the napkins on the floor. He picked one up and tried to clean off the mess on his shirt, smearing it instead.
"The war keeps me busy," I replied, my attention quickly going toward the jail cell at the back of the building. "I heard you finally have someone to lock up."
He laughed at my jest. "Well, it is true that not much happens here. The war thankfully has not reached us ... until now."
"Oh?" I asked with a raised eyebrow.
"We caught one traitor, killing several others." His news was too great for me, and I sighed, lowering my head with my eyes closed. "You do not side with these Ibera lovers, do you?"
"No," I said quickly. I sighed again to give myself more time to respond. "I heard that the traitors were mostly women and children. Must you kill them?"
"Listen here," Marty said with an out stretched finger. "Women can be just as guilty as war crimes as men can." His statement, though true in Ibera, didn't pack as much force as it could have with the red smear on his shirt.
I shook my head in discust but kept a fake smile on my face to fool the dear sheriff. "So, let me get this straight," I said, "you caught one and killed the rest?"
"Oh, no," Marty replied with frown on his face. "Some escaped into the forest. I'm sure the army has caught them by now."
"The Iberan army?"
"No, the Gilheim army," Marty replied.
I shook my head. The ones that fled into the forest were probably just as safe as can be. The local villagers, though good farmers, wouldn't make great soldiers. That was one reason why I picked this place for a safe house. I was known here, so it wouldn't be strange for me to pay a visit. Plus, it was far from the war ... at the time, anyway. And, the villagers were idiots by most accounts, the Sheriff included.
As I walked back toward the jail cell, I said, "May I have a minute alone with the prisoner?"
Marty stood up, noticing for the first time apparantly that the red stain was still there. His discusted look made me smile and laughed a little. "Sure," he said, "I need to go change my shirt. I trust you not to let her out."
After Marty left, closing the door behind him, I headed for the jail cell. In my heart I wanted it to be Katrina, but I also feared for whoever had been killed. My heart sank a little as I saw Fram, one of my recruits from this side of the conflict line.
"Jon!" she practially yelled. I put my finger over my lips to quiet her. "Sorry," she continued, "I was just so happy to see a friendly face."
I got down to business real quick. I didn't know how long it would take Marty to change his shirt. "Some fled into the forest when you were caught. Which way did they go?"
"Toward the Blue River, and the new girl took my daughter."
My tension eased a little. Perhaps the new girl was Katrina. Perhaps even Nellie was all right. I didn't know what I would do if something were to happen to any of my recruits from my home land. The recruits from this side were important to me, but they didn't hold as much emotion for me as my own sisters.
"I can't get you out right now. I don't want to blow my cover just yet. I will head for the survivors and come back for you."
"Hurry, though," she replied with tears in her eyes. "I overheard that they are going to hang me tomorrow."

Rappahannock Record Celebrates 100 Years
In the digital age, newspapers are fighting for survival. But in the Northern Neck, one newspaper is not only thriving, but celebrating 100 years of existence.
In 1916, a group of Kilmarnock businessmen founded the Rappahannock Record, a weekly newspaper that has been covering the area ever since. As the paper prepares to mark its centennial, publisher Fred Gaskins credits its success to its continuity and the fact that it's locally owned. "There's not many independent papers left in the state of Virginia. There are probably about three or four of us."

In 2003, in the midst of the second iIntifada, Right To Play (RTP) began operating in the occupied Palestinian territory (oPt). RTP, though it was still in its infancy, set about establishing itself as a unique and much-loved programme in the lives of Palestinian children. The realities of operating within the oPt are hard, however, with many challenges. Given the clear similarities between the goals of RTP and UNRWA towards creating positive change in the lives of Palestine refugee children and youth, a relationship was quickly formed. A Memorandum of Understanding was signed early on by UNRWA, allowing RTP to work with students in the Agency's schools and offering vital logistical support, security advice and an encouraging hand in the early years. It was the starting point of a long and meaningful partnership between the two organizations.
Today RTP continues to work closely with UNRWA in pursuance of these shared goals under the two thematic areas of enhancing education quality and building peaceful communities.
RTP uses 'Play and Sport' as a tool for behavioural and social change by fostering the physical, cognitive and social development of children so they can learn important life skills, conflict resolution and peace building techniques, and by improving basic education and promoting healthy development through games and sports. Living in a state of perennial conflict, Palestinian children benefit greatly from the opportunity to play, with sports being an enjoyable tool for teachers and students alike.
Built on a holistic approach to child development, RTP implements various activities, including training teachers to enhance their ability to effectively plan and implement Play-and -Sport-based activities and build their capacity with regards to managing groups and group behaviour, communication skills, ,promoting inclusion , child protection, safety, and stages of child development. RTP also implements sports tournaments in UNRWA schools to utilize sports as a tool for children and youth to learn valuable skills and concepts, such as teamwork, cooperation , fair play and physical well-being.
Khan al-Ahmar primary school, where Bedouin children from the nearby Jahalin tribe attend, is an example of Right To Play's commitment to marginalized and vulnerable communities. Located in Area C, the school is under continual threat of demolition, and both students and teachers are exhausted by the constant sense of uncertainty. RTP is a welcome relief, offering the young Bedouin children a constructive way to express their frustrations, while promoting healthy development, both physically and psychologically.
Commenting on this partnership, the Chief of the West Bank Education Programme, Muhannad Beidas, said: "For many years, RTP has been – and still is – one of the Agency's important partners in education. The work carried out in UNRWA schools has reflected positively on the development of the children's well-being. The school activities targeting children in general, and marginalized students in particular, supported the implementation of the Agency's Inclusive Policy. Teachers also received training that supported them in delivering a better curriculum for children and creating a conducive learning environment."
Echoing these sentiments, RTP Country Manager Ghada Rabah said: "RTP has a unique and supportive partnership with UNRWA, whose strategic goals are similar to ours. We appreciate this partnership. Both UNRWA and RTP focus on targeting marginalized areas and serving children and youth by promoting the methodology of active learning and placing the child at the center of the teaching-learning process."
Having worked within the Palestine refugee community for over 65 years, the UNRWA education programme constantly seeks to improve its services through dynamic cooperation with partner organizations. Its partnership with RTP is one powerful example of how such efforts can make a positive and lasting impact on the lives of Palestine refugee children and youth.

The 2003 Festival started as it always should but so rarely does, with an easy win for the favourite and an afternoon which, as a whole, will have left many bookmakers in need of a stretcher to leave the course.
There were 50,000 racegoers packed into Cheltenham by the time the tapes went up for the Supreme Novice Hurdle, and the mood, as ever, was fuelled by the wild optimism that only a heavy wallet and the prospect of 20 top-class betting heats can generate.
And this year the mood lasted all day, starting with the victory of Back In Front, the 3-1 favourite. Jumping with great fluency, Back In Front was always travelling easily for Norman Williamson just behind the pacesetting Lirfox and the backers' money was safe from the moment the jockey kicked clear on the home turn.
Back In Front finished third in last year's Champion Bumper behind Pizarro, who runs in the opener today, and Rhinestone Cowboy. Edward O'Grady, his trainer, said: "It must have been one of the most competitive bumpers that's ever been run. " O'Grady believes that Back In Front will definitely be a Champion Hurdle horse next year and Hill's quote him at 8-1.
The second favourite of the day also delivered, as Azertyuiop, who was backed down to 5-4, beat Impek by 11 lengths. "Two miles is his trip; he has got the gears and the speed and now we will start planning for the Queen Mother Champion Chase next year," Paul Nicholls, his trainer, said.
Youlneverwalkalone had plenty of backers, too, in the William Hill Handicap Chase and ran on well to beat Haut Cercy by three-quarters of a length. And while Royal Predica, at 33-1, was one for the bookies in the Kim Muir, the balance of power was summed up by a wonderful finish to the final race, the Pertemps Hurdle Final.
Inching Closer, the 6-1 favourite, jumped the last alongside Royal Emperor and the pair were not separated by more than a neck all the way up the hill. In the final stride and on the nod it was Inching Closer who got up to win by a short-head.
"He's aptly named all right," Jonjo O'Neill, Inching Closer's trainer, said. "I wasn't sure that he'd got up. He's game and genuine and did everything right today."
The victory completed a 55-1 double for Barry Geraghty, who is the leading rider at the meeting after day one.

A few days have gone by to settle in to the news that Ravens linebacker Terrell Suggs will be sidelined for much of the 2012 season.
Suggs, as most of you know, partially tore his ACL during a conditioning drill in Arizona, yet despite the association of severity that comes with an injury to an ACL, the reigning Defensive Player of the Year has vowed to return some time this season.
But while Suggs heals from surgery and prepares to begin his rehab, life for the Ravens must move on and over the past week or so there have been a handful of acquisitions on both sides of the ball.
Offensively, the Ravens reached a two-year agreement with free agent wide receiver and return specialist Jacoby Jones. Jones played his first five seasons with the Houston Texans, appearing in 75 games - 21 starts - and grabbing 127 catches for 1,741 yards and 11 touchdowns. The numbers may not have much pop, but when added to four career return touchdowns and a 23.3-yard return average on kickoffs, Jones' signing could be a nice boost for the Ravens' offense.
On the flip side, the Ravens also announced they extended the contract of safety Bernard Pollard. Another former Texan, Pollard's contract is extended for three more years, thanks in large part to a productive 2011 season, which saw the hard-hitting safety register 75 total tackles and a career-high 13 passes defended.
For you, the fans, the Ravens released their plans for the summer training camp visits and the dates in which fans can watch the team practice. Last season was the first year in which the Ravens did not host training camp at McDaniel College, rather at the team's training facility, which was closed off to the general public. Here's what the Ravens have in store for this preseason:
The Ravens' 2012 training camp, connected by Verizon, will feature individual practices to be held at M&T Bank Stadium, the U.S. Naval Academy and Stevenson University. All sessions are free and open to the public.
Additionally, by entering a lottery on www.baltimoreravens.com, fans in limited numbers will have an opportunity to attend training camp at the team's Owings Mills facility. The Ravens can safely host 200 people on the fields of their practice complex, and fans who are randomly chosen through the drawing will be invited to view approximately 14 of the team's training camp sessions.
Further details regarding the lottery, its entry process and the Owings Mills practices will be announced on the team's Web site in mid-June.
M&T Bank Stadium is scheduled to host a training camp practice Saturday, Aug. 4. The Ravens are then slated to practice at the U.S. Naval Academy's Navy-Marine Corps Memorial Stadium on Sunday, Aug. 12. The team will round out its off-site training camp sessions at Stevenson University's Mustang Stadium on Sunday, Aug. 19.
Venues will feature interactive fan events, including player autograph signings for children, fun-filled activities designed specifically for youth and cheerleader/mascot meet-and-greets. Times and specifics for each practice will be announced this summer.
Update: The Ravens have reportedly reached agreements with two draft picks, offensive lineman Gino Gradkowski and defensive tackle D'Angelo Tyson. Gradkowski, a fourth-round selection from Delaware, got a four-year contract. Terms of the deal for Tyson, a seventh-round pick from Georgia, are not known.

Thanks in advance
@JadenQuinn Hi! I'm in the same boat as you... except I write fiction instead of poetry. I would definitely look at some of your poetry, if you don't mind that I'm not the best when it comes to poetry. If you want, I'm posting a story on here that you should feel free to critique if you so desire. :)

The Circle line was halted completely throughout the morning peak period and the District line - the two routes are used by more than one million passengers a day - suffered serious disruption.
The problems began with a signal failure at Aldgate but then, more seriously, a collapsed drain was found on the tracks close to Temple station used by Circle and District line trains.
The Metropolitan line also suffered delays because of the earlier signal failure.
Engineers carried out emergency repairs to the drain. The collapse - there was a five foot hole close to the running rails - was so serious that District line trains were only allowed through at "very very" low speed.
To ease chronic congestion on the crowded tracks the decision was taken to withdraw all Circle line trains. Problems were exacerbated, however, on the District line by a broken down train at Acton Town.

Here's one for you. This was the home of an English league club from 1908 to 1935. Was built in a chalk pit and part of the pitch fell by 25 feet during a game due to ground movement. A 50 foot retaining wall between the fans and the touchline. Health and safety! Name the club.

Foxcastle had been a rather splendid town once. It had been my home at least, and that gave it some gravitas in my mind. Smallish and filled with outlaws, some who wielded their weapons at whomever dared to come our way, Foxcastle had not relied on anyone else; it simply hadn't needed to. And we didn't want the help of any or every stranger. It would have stayed that way if not for that one stranger. As they come, he was unassuming and asked only for bread and water, just as every other traveller had before him had. We didn't to think of the fury inside him, fury that had probably been there for centuries. Foxcastle wasn't without its enemies indeed.
And when the fellow had set alight his chain of miserable events, we were all tucked up in our beds, under the impression that all was well, his smoke-screen cast too tight. It had never occurred to us that within forty-eight hours of his arrival our town would be dead, its citizens pleading for their lives.
Foxcastle's residents hadn't bargained on treachery. Not one bit. Especially not then, despite the fact that our ancestors had been traitors- and we were all born traitors, and had been for centuries, having once been there at the fall of the vengeful kings. We were descended, so it was said, from Lucifer, seeds sown in an evening of imprisonments like those of Io and Danae.
In a way, we were gods. In other ways, we were the most evil.
However, before my home had been destroyed, Foxcastle had been, at worst, a home for those who had needed refuge over the many years, the unwanted and their families if they chose to bring them. Some people came alone, some came to start completely afresh. It did, eventually, complete the circle of Foxcastle life. One by one, the elders would move onto other towns, after they had fashioned enough of a new life for themselves to replace that which they could not have had before.
But they never died. And neither did I, Meytra Rebeckah, or the majority of Foxcastle's populace. It was the 'God-complex' and the Devil's immortality. So, despite years of living, I was still classed as being 'of teenaged mind' compared to many of the others I lived amongst. That age mattered too much when it came to livelihood in Foxcastle.
However, with age- false or not- comes the brilliance of learning and intellect, and we citizens, omnipresent, had seen the change of scenery around Foxcastle, from the time when the land had been fertile and green, to the most recent drought, cause by another asteroid storm, which had burnt the foliage to nothing, and the plain had only just settled into an orange shrub-land in which Foxcastle had sat. We had been the only town for miles around, and so we had become accustomed to travellers, as few as there were passing our way, asking upon our 'gratitude'.
Of course, they were scared. If I had not grown up with swords hanging on the hut wall and brawls every Sunday at the 'mud arena', I would have reacted in the same way too. Conversely, it was strange to see their expressions: eyes wide in fear at the stone hammers our protectors had wielded, and at the small daggers that were tucked into the belts of all our residents. We all thought that we had been prepared for anything. Our instruments were old-fashioned and we might have seemed barbarous, in our simple way of protecting our land, but we could also be witty and subliminal in our attack; so, visitors knew not to stay. In typical cases, the traveller would stumble upon our town, hungry and thirsty from their miles of pilgrimage across the deserts, we would 'greet' them with guttural cries and threats, but then accept them into the town to stay a few nights and whatever they needed.
True, sometimes I'd disagree with the actions of our town, but Foxcastle was just that: a cross between the stone-age that had long passed other towns and a medieval age of enlightenment. We were not slobs, even if we appeared that way, and it was a façade that we had thought would keep us forever safe. In no way were we slobs or idiots: I had my degree in Meteorology, and my housemate had his in Cosmology.


text: Alison Lundergan Grimes McConnell Unveils Bill Countering New EPA Emissions Standards By Kevin Willis • Jun 3, 2014 Senator Mitch McConnell is making good on his promise to introduce legislation that would block new rules announced this week by the Environmental Protection Agency. The E.P.A. rules call on power plants to reduce carbon emissions 30 percent by 2030. The move has been slammed by Republicans and some coal-state Democrats who describe the standards as federal overreach that will harm the nation's economy while doing little to actually halt climate change. The E.P.A says the regulations will help clean the air and establish the U.S. as a leader in the fight against climate change. Sen. McConnell has introduced what he's calling the Coal Country Protection Act. According to McConnell's office, the legislation would mandate the Secretary of Labor to certify to the EPA Administrator that the new regulations will not lead to a loss of jobs. Also under the measure, the Director of the Congressional Budget Office would have to certify that the regulations would not result in a loss of gross domestic product in the U.S. New EPA Rules Burn Red State Democrats By Frank James • Jun 2, 2014 While many on the left embraced the Environmental Protection Agency's new rules to reduce coal-burning power plant carbon emissions by 30 percent by 2030, some red state Democrats couldn't put enough distance between themselves and the Obama administration. You would have had a tough time, for instance, distinguishing the reaction of Kentucky Democrat Alison Lundergan Grimes from that of the man she hopes to replace, Sen. Mitch McConnell, the Senate's top Republican. McConnell and Grimes Blast New EPA Regulations on Greenhouse Gas Emissions By Kevin Willis • Jun 2, 2014 Offices of Sen. McConnell and Sec. Grimes Both of Kentucky's U.S. Senate candidates are denouncing new federal guidelines related to greenhouse gas emissions. The Environmental Protection Agency announced Monday that power plants will have to reduce carbon emissions 30 percent by the year 2030. While Republican Senator Mitch McConnell and Democratic Secretary of State Alison Lundergan Grimes have exchanged harsh words about who is best to represent the commonwealth in Washington, they both believe the EPA's first-ever limits on carbon pollution from power plants represent a federal overreach that will harm Kentucky's economy. Calling it a "national energy tax" imposed by the Obama Administration, Sen. McConnell said he will introduce legislation to block the new rules. In a statement released to the media Monday by McConnell's office, the Louisville Republican said the EPA regulations would lead to "higher costs, fewer jobs, and a less reliable energy grid." Common Cause Challenges McConnell, Grimes to Limit Ads Bought by Outside Groups By WKU Public Radio News • May 29, 2014 Offices of Sen. McConnell and Sec. Grimes A group that advocates for greater government transparency is challenging Kentucky's U.S. Senate candidates to limit ads purchased by outside groups. The Herald-Leader reports that Common Cause of Kentucky sent letters this week to the campaigns of Republican Senator Mitch McConnell and Democratic Secretary of State Alison Lundergan Grimes, asking them to sign a pledge aimed at limiting outside spending on the Senate race. Under what the group calls the People's Pledge, a candidate would agree to give to charity half of the cost of any ad bought by outside groups during the campaign. Grimes campaign manager Jonathan Hurst told the paper that Grimes has previously called for both campaigns to sign the pledge. The McConnell campaign had not commented on the request by Common Cause of Kentucky as of Wednesday afternoon. Kentucky's Senate race will be one of the most closely-watched races in the country, with some analysts predicting it will also be the most expensive Senate race in history. Paul Urges Kentucky GOP To Rally Around McConnell By Associated Press • May 23, 2014 Sen. Rand Paul is calling for Republicans across Kentucky to support Sen. Mitch McConnell in his campaign against Democrat Alison Lundergan Grimes. The first-term senator, considered a possible 2016 presidential candidate, said Friday that a vote for Grimes would be a vote for Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid and his policy of advancing President Barack Obama's agenda. McConnell says he has not spoken to Matt Bevin since defeating him in Tuesday's Republican primary. But he says he was not worried about losing Republican votes in the general election. Grimes released an open letter to Bevin's supporters on Friday saying McConnell will lie about her in campaign ads just as he lied about Bevin. She urged them to get to know her and her true positions. Some Groups That Supported Bevin Closing Ranks, Backing McConnell in Senate General Election By WKU Public Radio News • May 21, 2014 Abbey Oldham Several right-wing groups that backed the Tea Party challenger against Senator Mitch McConnell have announced they will now support the Senate Minority Leader. The news represents the kind of unity that is important for McConnell as he takes on Democratic candidate Alison Lundergan Grimes. With the primary now in the rearview mirror, both the McConnell and Grimes campaigns can now focus 100 percent of their attention on winning the November general election. For McConnell, one of the top items on his campaign's to-do list is repairing relationships with Tea Party and conservative groups that backed his primary opponent, Matt Bevin. Those efforts are already bearing fruit, as Politico reports the Senate Conservatives Fund, the Madison Project, and FreedomWorks have said they will support McConnell in his re-election effort. Several of the groups took credit for moving McConnell to the right during his primary campaign. Now That It's Official, How Will McConnell-Grimes Contest Play Out? By Kevin Willis • May 21, 2014 Abbey Oldham Listen Listening... / 4:00 A look ahead at November's McConnell-Grimes Senate Matchup With Tuesday's U.S. Senate primary now behind them, Republican incumbent Mitch McConnell and Democratic challenger Alison Lundergan Grimes can now invest 100 percent of their time, effort, and money into the November 4 general election. Sen. McConnell beat Tea Party activist and Louisville businessman Matt Bevin in the GOP primary by about 25 points, and Grimes easily won her party's contest. While he ultimately lost, Bevin's candidacy exposed divisions within the Kentucky Republican Party that Democrats hope will benefit them in the fall. A great deal of attention is now going to be paid to efforts by the McConnell campaign and its supporters to heal any lingering wounds between so-called "establishment" Republicans and Tea Partiers. At rallies across Kentucky in recent months, Tea Party supporters have assailed the Senate Minority Leader as someone who talks like a conservative while in the commonwealth, but votes with liberals when in Washington. Bobby Alexander, with the Central Kentucky Tea Party Patriots, told WKU Public Radio at a recent rally in Elizabethtown that McConnell has forgotten what it means to be a Republican. McConnell Defeats Tea Party Challenger Bevin Setting Up General Election Showdown By Associated Press • May 20, 2014 Abbey Oldham Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell has defeated millionaire businessman Matt Bevin in an expensive and bruising primary election in Kentucky. He'll face Secretary of State Alison Lundergan Grimes in the fall as he pursues his sixth term. Grimes handily won the Democratic Senate primary. McConnell has been one of President Barack Obama's fiercest critics, but Bevin accused the longtime senator of not being conservative enough. Bevin spent $3.3 million in his bid as a political newcomer backed by various tea party groups. McConnell drowned him out with more than $9 million in spending. Outside groups spent millions more defending his conservative credentials. McConnell had already shifted into fall campaign mode. He's been attacking Obama's health care law and coal regulations and trying to link Grimes to the president, who is deeply unpopular in Kentucky. As Bus Tour, Primary Season Wind Down, Grimes' Criticism of McConnell Ramps Up By Emil Moffatt • May 16, 2014 Emil Moffatt Just days away from the Kentucky primary, Democratic Senate candidate Alison Lundergan Grimes has her eyes fixed on November and a potential general election matchup with incumbent Senator Mitch McConnell. In front of an estimated crowd of more than 200 supporters Friday evening at Circus Square Park in Bowling Green, Grimes spoke after being introduced by State Rep. Jody Richards. It was the final stop of the day on Grimes' bus tour of Kentucky. "The energy, the excitement is contagious," Grimes said to the crowd. "I know you are ready, not only for May 20th but to give me enough shoe leather to run all the way until November." Grimes' criticism of McConnell was unrelenting, calling the incumbent the "senator of yesterday." "Yesterday's view of minimum wage, yesterday's view against women getting equal pay for equal work. Yesterday's view against actually bringing funding here for our universities, yesterday's view against actually realizing it's the job of a U.S. Senator to actually bring jobs to this state," said Grimes. Several Kentucky Tea Party Groups Hope to Defeat McConnell in Primary By Lisa Autry • May 16, 2014 While establishment Republicans may still rule the day, the Tea Party is bent on taking down the king, Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell of Kentucky. The five-term incumbent is waging two wars to hang on to his seat. The first battle, culminating on May 20, has McConnell in a primary contest with Louisville businessman Matt Bevin. Hoping he doesn't survive to fight in the general election, Tea Party groups across Kentucky are rallying the troops ahead of the May 20 primary. "When was the last time you saw a town hall here in Kentucky with Senator McConnell where he actually answered questions? He shows up at Lincoln Day dinners, gives his speech, and leaves," asserts Scott Hofstra with the United Kentucky Tea Party. "He's not accountable to us and doesn't want to be. We deserve better." Hofstra spoke recently in Elizabethtown to a group called the Central Kentucky Tea Party Patriots, a mix of mostly blue collar workers and retirees. National Tea Party groups are mostly split in their support of McConnell and Bevin, but state and local groups are mostly rallying around Bevin, someone they call a "true conservative," who they think can take the GOP back to its roots. Grimes Expecting Low Turnout for Tuesday's Primary Election By Jonathan Meador • May 15, 2014 Secretary of State Alison Lundergan Grimes says that turnout for this Tuesday's primary election isn't likely to exceed 30 percent. Grimes says without a presidential contest and without ballot initiatives like a local option sales tax, turnout among Kentucky's 3.1 million registered voters will be lower than in some previous years. "Based on conversations that we have had with our county clerks throughout the state, the fact that there is no local option question available, or on the ballot, and when we're looking at the absentee numbers that are being reviewed by the state board of elections, they are lagging from where we were at this very time in '06 and 2013," the Secretary said. About 1,000 offices will be up for grabs Tuesday across 3,700 voting precincts. Polls will be open from 6 a.m. to 6 p.m. Poll: McConnell Up Big Over Bevin, in Dead Heat with Grimes By WKU Public Radio News • May 12, 2014 Kevin Willis A new poll shows Kentucky's incumbent U.S. Senator coasting to victory against his Republican primary challenger. But that same poll shows a dead-heat between Sen. Mitch McConnell and presumptive Democratic challenger Alison Lundergan Grimes. The NBC News-Marist poll shows Senator McConnell with a lead of 57-25 percent over his primary challenger, Louisville businessman Matt Bevin. Things are much tighter for the fall general election, however, with the poll showing McConnell with just a 46-45 percent lead over Democratic Secretary of State Alison Lundergan Grimes. Sen. McConnell faces low approval numbers in the new poll, with 46 percent of registered voters saying they disapprove of the job he's doing, while 41 percent say they approve. Far fewer voters have formed an opinion about Secretary Grimes, with 27 percent of those surveyed saying they're unsure, and another 10 percent who say they've never heard of her. Clinton: Grimes Differs From McConnell Because She Cares About Compromise, Middle Class By Philip Bailey • Feb 25, 2014 Former President Bill Clinton visited Louisville Tuesday to stump for Democrat Alison Lundergan Grimes in Kentucky's U.S. Senate race. Grimes is running against Republican Leader Mitch McConnell in a tight race, which is gaining national media attention. In recent weeks, she has put issues such as raising the minimum wage and closing the gender pay gap at the center of her candidacy. Clinton says Grimes is a contrast with McConnell because she cares about rebuilding the middle-class and believes in compromise over gridlock. The former President asked his audience if "we should stay with this model of constant conflict, which can generate unlimited amounts of special interest money to keep people stuck in their ideological ruts. Nothing good will happen except the people who are on the receiving end of the benefits may win one more election." "But real people don't win that way," Clinton said. Clinton also endorsed the Grimes campaign jobs plan, especially its ideas to get military veterans back to work. The McConnell campaign says Grimes has yet to explain how much the jobs plan would cost and how she would pay for it. Clinton, Longtime Friend to Grimes and Her Family, Will Headline Tuesday Fundraiser in Louisville By WKU Public Radio News • Feb 24, 2014 Former President Bill Clinton will be in Kentucky Tuesday to help raise money for a U.S. Senate candidate. Clinton will headline a lunchtime fundraiser at a Louisville hotel for Democrat Alison Lundergran Grimes. The cost of admission to the event at the Galt House is a contribution of $100-$5,200. The Courier-Journal reports those who give one-thousand-dollars will get access to a rope line. Donors at the $2,600 level will also gain entry into a reception featuring Clinton, and $5,200 gets the donor a special commemorative gift. Grimes and Clinton have a history. Grimes' father, Jerry Lundergan, is a longtime friend of the former President and was Kentucky chairman Hillary Clinton's 2008 presidential campaign. During Bill Clinton's first inaugural festivities, a 14-year-old Alison Lundergan Grimes gave the new first couple of bouquet of red roses at the base of the Lincoln Memorial. LRC Employee Fired After Appearing in Online Video for Senate Candidate By WKU Public Radio News • Feb 18, 2014 An employee with the Legislative Research Commission has been fired after appearing in an online video in support of a Democratic Senatorial candidate. The Courier-Journal reports that Charles Booker, 29, lost his job yesterday as an analyst for the Government Contract Review Committee. Booker appeared in a video for Alison Lundergun Grimes, who is running for the U.S. Senate seat held by Republican Mitch McConnell. In the video, Booker's wife accuses McConnell of being out of touch with poor Kentuckians. Booker appears briefly in the video and makes a few comments about western Louisville. LRC personnel policy prohibits employees from taking part in partisan political activity. Pages« first ‹ previous … 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 next › last »

Woof and PontiusMature
'A vision! You are simply a vision of poise and elegance, Renore!' exclaims Pontius, my biggest fan, when I step out of my quarters and into the hallway. 'It's not fair! Your stylist will hardly have to lift a finger, while your poor mentor and I are going to be hounded to death by clamouring would-be sponsors!'
I pay close attention to the way Pontius gushes. I hope to imitate it as best I can while I'm in the company of Capitol folk. It works like a charm on Pontius when I mirror his sugary, inane etiquette right back at him. It's vanity.
Having thanked him in suitably elaborate language and making myself blush in humility, he offers me his arm with a flourish and I take it. He prattles on about how exciting the Games are going to be this year and how glorious the Capitol is as he guides me to the dining car. I'm just nodding and smiling. The dining car is clad in panels of polished wood, the floor covered in the same 'lovely springy' carpet as the lounge car. My heels sink into the plush enough that I have to tighten my abdominals to keep from wobbling. Pontius walks me to a beautiful hard wood table set with real silver cutlery and delicate porcelain. He personally pulls out a seat for me and situates himself in the chair to my right. 'I'm sure Rafe will be along shortly,' says Pontius without conviction. He claps his hands and a parade of waiters start serving up the soup course.
To my left, sitting at the end of the table is my mentor, Woof. I reckon the reason for his absence up until now is that he was taking a nap. His eyes are a little puffy and his hair is slightly dishevelled on one side. He'd looked so tired at the reaping it's no surprise. I want to be on good terms with him so I smile and greet him. 'Good evening, Woof. We didn't really get a chance to meet formally at the reaping.' I extend a hand to him. He takes it gently with a surprised, amused smile. Then it's his turn to surprise me by pressing it to his lips instead of shaking it. I go on when he releases me, 'It's nice to meet you. I suppose I've always wanted to – admittedly not like this, but…'
'It's a pleasure, Renore,' he replies, 'though I agree with you regarding the circumstances. You know, you could have knocked on my door any time if you wanted a chat.'
I don't tell him how often I had thought of knocking on his door over the years. Because what I was offering wasn't a chat and it isn't something for polite dinner conversation. And I don't want things to get awkward between us. My relationship with Woof could mean my life or death in the arena.
'I was too nervous,' I say instead. It's half the truth.
'Isn't she precious?' croons Pontius, patting my hand. 'So pleasant and polite! They say things about District 8: how obstinate and disrespectful you all are. Of course, it's usually true. So many other District 8 tributes I've escorted over my ten years here have been stubborn as mules and downright rude, to boot! One year, a young lady - hmph! Lady indeed – snatched my best wig right off my head and threw it out the window! Can you believe it? And then, the year before last, I caught our male tribute snaffling the silverware up his sleeves! It's a wonder that young man didn't end up an Avox!'
Oh, stop it, Pontius. You're giving me ideas.
I try to look shocked while suppressing my laughter. It's enough to fool Pontius. I cast a glance at Woof and he catches my eye. A corner of his mouth quirks up for no more than an instant and he gives me the tiniest of nods. He approves of my conduct. By this time, our soup has been ladled out and the three of us tuck in. It's a zingy gumbo with monstrous crayfish and succulent okra.
'We don't need to go into everything before we reach the Capitol if you don't want to,' Woof says. 'But is there anything in particular you want to ask?'
I think while we eat. Not because I don't know what to ask, but because I don't know what to ask first. 'Hm. You'll be training both of us, won't you? Rafe and me. How is that going to work out, exactly?'
The waiters clear away the soup course and bring out a salad full of more greens than I knew existed and a rainbow of tomatoes. Woof waits until they're done serving to answer, 'Yes, it's not unheard of for tributes to have only one mentor between them.'
I nod. District 12 only has Haymitch Abernathy, and he's only been mentoring for five years so far.
Woof goes on. 'We can have our sessions as a group or, if you prefer, I can spend time with you each separately. Keep in mind, there are benefits to both methods. Training together means you can both spend the full amount of time available under my tuition. It means you can learn more about each other and your strategies, which can both facilitate an alliance between you and give you valuable insight on how to… outwit… the other.'
He means how to kill each other. But I can see why he might want to skirt the issue. The role of the mentor is a grim one. It's not a prospect I look forward to.
'By training separately, your abilities and strategies will be between tribute, mentor, and style team only. This could give one of you the edge over the other, through the elements of uncertainty and surprise.'
I see what he means by there being advantages both ways, but since I'm playing to win, I don't see much point in an alliance with Rafe. Plus, he hates me with the fire of a thousand suns. That feels like the kind of thing that might put a bit of a damper on our relationship.
'But I think we should discuss it when we're all here,' Woof concludes. The rest of our conversation is dominated by Pontius' cheerful, empty prattling. We finish our salads and I'm already beginning to feel full. I've rarely eaten so much in one sitting. District 8 may have it better by population than some other districts, but for those of us without families life is lean. If all the girls in the Home didn't apply for tesserae, there wouldn't be enough food to go around. The next course is brought out and I honestly don't know how I'm going to get through it. It's peppered rabbit pie with sliced potatoes cooked in a creamy, cheesy sauce and a crumble topping. It's delicious, but I only make it two-fifths into the dish before I start to struggle. I set down my knife and fork in defeat. Woof smiles, transfers my plate to his own and polishes it off for me. The same thing happens with the melon balls in compote that follow. I don't know where he's putting it all. He's not a big man.
I'm staring wide-eyed at the decadent cake that appears in front of me when he leans over and quietly jokes, 'Go on. You could stand to gain a few pounds.' This time, I manage to clean my own plate. I swear I've ruptured something.
The table is cleared, coffee is brought out, and Rafe still hasn't made an appearance. It's nearly time for the recap, so Woof drains his mug and excuses himself. 'I'll just go see where the other one's got to,' he says with some concern. The way he says 'the other one' isn't cold. Woof has a fatherly demeanour and a way of speaking that's full of warmth and subtle humour. I already like him.
Pontius escorts me (hey, it's his job) into the lounge car. I settle into one of the sofas in front of the viewing screen and he goes to the bar. He comes back carrying a silver tray which he sets on the little table before us. There's a bucket of ice on it, with a bottle sticking out, and four glasses. I watch him pour out a pale, peach-coloured liquid into each glass and pick up two. He hands the first to me, keeping the other for his self. I hold the glass up in front of me and take a whiff. It smells so sweet and delicate, it makes me salivate.
'Wonderful nose, is it not?' Pontius indulges me, 'The taste does nothing to disappoint, either.' He chinks his glass against mine and drinks.
I take a sip. It's fruity and floral, like apricot and rose. The liquid is cold, but a pleasant heat spreads through my mouth and throat when I swallow. It's infinitely nicer than the homebrew we used to make at the orphanage. Sometimes I don't even know what strange ingredients the girls would find to ferment. I have the feeling I don't want to. There's an unspoken agreement: don't ask, just drink. That stuff was stronger. The only proper alcohol I've had before this was the fizzy pink wine Mayor Card sometimes brought me, and the pungent whisky Marcus Flint would ply me with. I liked the whisky better.
Rafe finally makes his appearance, just before the anthem of Panem begins to blare out from the television set. I don't know what Woof said to him, but it obviously worked better than anything Pontius could bleat out. As is quickly becoming tradition, he casts me a nasty look and sits as far away from me as possible. When Pontius offers him a glass, he looks at it like it's poison. Pontius' hand hovers there in front of him for longer than necessary before the bewigged man gets the picture. He sets the rejected glass on the table in crestfallen indignation. Woof sits down next to Rafe and accepts his glass. He drains it with practised speed. That's something you see a lot with victors. He sees me watching him and gives a small, embarrassed shrug. We turn to the screen.
Time to see who I'm up against.

Question: We are struggling to get our deposit back from our old property. Our deposit of £1,200 is held with the Deposit Protection Service (DPS) and the landlord wants £200 for cleaning costs. No quote has been provided, he continually rejects our requests to use the available dispute mechanism of the DPS and now he has stopped answering our emails.
Do you think we should just give in to him and let him have the £200 so that we can get our money back or is there anything else we can do?
Answer: Your landlord is no longer responding, so raise a dispute with the DPS. If that fails, you may need to go to court but even if you get a judgment against your landlord in the small claims court, you may have to enforce the judgment to get the money out of him.
Do remember a landlord can make a reasonable deduction for cleaning. Did your tenancy agreement require carpets and curtains to be cleaned to a professional standard before you moved out? Do you have photos showing the condition of the property when you left, or any receipts for cleaning it? Did the landlord use a letting agent to check the inventory and the property before you left?
If you feel you can prove that you left the property in the correct state and in accordance with the terms of your tenancy agreement, then send a letter before action to the landlord notifying him of your intention to issue court proceedings. If that doesn't work, contact your local county court. Ask them for the necessary forms and guidance notes to help you issue a small claim.
I expect that your landlord is banking on the fact that you will not pursue that course of action and will relent and let him have the money so that you can get your £1,000 back — if you are sure of your ground, then perhaps you should stand up to him.

If yes, then there could be a possibility that the DBF file has corrupted because of various issues such as virus infections, abrupt or unplanned system shutdown while the database is open, hardware malfunctioning, etc. In such circumstances, you should use in-built methods to repair DBF file. If these methods do not work, then you should use a third-party DBF file repair software to repair the damaged database.
Let us consider a situation in which you get the following error message when you try to open a database in MS Visual FoxPro.
"The fields in table "<table name>" did not match the entries in the database."
The primary cause of this error is that the database table is corrupt. Because of which, you are unable to open the table.
When you open a table that is contained in a database, Visual FoxPro tries to confirm that every field of the database table has matching object in the database. The error is caused when the entries do not match. Such database error is caused by corrupt database or table. Also, such errors are caused because of having incorrect copy of a table (.DBF) in the same directory as the parent database (.DBC).
To rectify this problem, you can recover DBF file using appropriate measures. To do this, the following methods can be used:
You can use the VALIDATE DATABASE command to check the integrity of the current database. To do this, the following command is used:
OPEN DATABASE mydata EXCLUSIVE
If the database is unable to open, then you should recreate the inaccessible database using a previously program created using GENDBC.PRG utility.
If you still are getting the same error message even after performing the aforementioned method, it means that the database is severely damaged. In such cases, you should use a third-party DBF repair software to scan and repair corrupt databases. These highly interactive DBF Recovery utilities are read-only in nature that do not damage the original databases.
The most efficient DBF Repair software that repairs and restores DBF files created in dBase III-V and MS Visual FoxPro 6.0 to 9.0 versions. Compatible with Windows 7, Vista, Server 2003, XP, and 2000 operating systems, this database recovery software repairs DBF file and restores several database components such as table name, column name, column data type, indexes, primary keys, etc.

A roundly confusing change
Even the participants are a little confused by the NCAA tournament's new format and nomenclature. Because of the expansion to 68 teams and the four early games, what used to be known as the first round (the round of 64) is now known as the second round, and so on.
After his team's last-second victory Thursday against Old Dominion that included 21 lead changes, Butler coach Brad Stevens was speaking about how winning such a close game could be particularly helpful to the Bulldogs, given that last season's run to the national championship game included four victories by seven points or fewer.
"I do think there's some validity to winning that way," Stevens said. "We're only 40 minutes in, and there's nobody who's going to be more tested than that going into the second round � or the third round, or whatever round we're in."
Security plan for NCAA
Secretary of Homeland Security Janet Napolitano said, "Right now we have no specific, credible information of any threat against" the NCAA basketball tournaments, but her department and the NCAA held a news conference in Washington to unveil a public campaign urging fans attending tournament games to be vigilant about possible terrorist threats.
A public service announcement involving Napolitano and NCAA President Mark Emmert will be played at any NCAA winter sports championship event at a venue with a video board, DHS and the NCAA announced at Verizon Center, a site of second- and third-round men's tournament games. In the spot, they ask fans to be on the lookout for suspicious activity specifically at NCAA championship events but also in general.
Using a slogan licensed from its originator, New York City's Metropolitan Transit Authority, the effort has been dubbed the "If You See Something, Say Something" campaign.
"The clearest example is an unattended package, backpack, something of that nature, that has been left in a hallway or in an aisle," Napolitano said when asked to identify the types of situations fans should report.

A Second ChanceMature
Miles stepped out of his freezing wooden shack into the cold, already shivering and rubbing his arms together because the inside of his home really wasn't much better than outside. He slept under the pelts of bears and wolves that he had collected after killing the animals himself, and still sometimes awoke in the night, finding himself chilled almost to the bone.
It was quiet outside, except for the constant howling of the wind; then he spotted them, appearing like ghosts out of the blowing snow. The pack of wolves Miles had dealt with just the other day had returned after killing and taking his livestock countless times in the past. This time, though, he took down a few before they began to retreat into the icy wasteland. It was already too late to do anything when Miles saw them hauling away the bleeding carcass of one of the animals. He muttered a string of curses, furious with the constant attacks and killings. Then he fell silent, having lost all sense of anger and being left with just a sort of calm feeling of hopelessness.
Soon, a noise caught his attention near the dome. Looking to the edge of the wall he was trapped outside of, he saw a raid party rushing into the Dome. Miles took that as his chance: maybe he could get inside with them. He seized the opportunity, running towards the entrance and trying to join in with the group. Hopefully, this would be the beginning of a better life for Miles Dixon.

As the heroin crisis grows, doctors prescribe enough painkillers for every person to have a bottle
Every year in the United States, there are enough opioid painkillers prescribed to give one bottle to every adult in the country. Officials believe the over prescription of painkillers has contributed to the heroin epidemic that lives on every street, neighborhood and city. Student athletes, mothers, fathers and beloved celebrities have all fallen victim to the grips of the addiction.
America's appetite for heroin has grown stronger, with more 28,000 opioid- and heroin-related overdose deaths in 2014, according to the CDC, with numbers only increasing year by year. In response to the epidemic, the Obama administration is treating it as a public health crisis,calling for an allocation of $1.1 billion in new funding to help expand treatment for those seeking it.
Instead of trying to prosecute its way out of the problem, the government is now viewing the crisis through mental health, behavioral, medicinal and public health lenses.
Recommendations also include educating doctors on the possible effects of prescribing powerful opioids, like oxycodone, hydrocodone, codeine, morphine, and fentanyl.
The gateway drug for 80 percent of heroin users is prescription opioids, according to Baltimore City Health Commissioner Dr. Leana Wen.
"We're beginning to develop this culture of a pill for every pain. There is a culture of access that we have to change," said Wen, who spoke alongside President Obama in March about what can be done to combat the opioid crisis in the United States.
The CDC links the spike in overdoses to fentanyl, a drug 50-100 times more powerful than heroin.
RELATED: Heroin crisis steals the spotlight from politics as usual in New Hampshire
America's appetite for heroin has grown stronger, with more 28,000 overdose deaths in 2014, according to the CDC, with numbers only increasing year by year.
Fentanyl is increasingly being used to cut heroin before it's sold on the streets.
"In the ER, I would prescribe [fentanyl] to someone who had just been in a terrible car accident and their hip is out of joint and they're screaming in pain," Wen told Rare. "If somebody is using heroin and they don't know that fentanyl is now mixed in it, they're going to overdose and die, which we're seeing nationwide."
The role of fentanyl in overdose deaths took center stage after the April 2016 overdose death of megastar Prince. The medical examiner from Prince's home county in Minnesota ruled the death was due to a self-administered accidental overdose of fentanyl.
Faces of heroin abuse:

The drug was first introduced under the name Sublimaze in the 1960s and was initially only administered through a needle, but it is now available through pill form, patches, injections and even in lozenge form.
Many users don't know they're buying heroin laced with fentanyl.
RELATED: New Hampshire's crisis becomes a waiting game of life or death
In Baltimore, where more than 20,000 people are known to be using heroin, the health department has issued a "Don't Die" campaign with fliers that instruct users on how to avoid an overdose. One of the directives on the releases is to pay attention to any changes in color and texture of the drug and to inject slowly if a change is noticed.
The skyrocketing rate of heroin-related overdose deaths has also increased the usage of Naloxone, also called Narcan. It's a prescription drug that can stop an overdose. Some high schools are now stocking Narcan so staff can respond to an overdose if necessary. It can prevent death if administered within 3-5 minutes of an overdose.
The use and importance of Naloxone is not new — the World Health Organization placed the drug on its list of essential medications in 1983.
U.S. public health officials are pushing its efforts to make Narcan available to the masses. In Baltimore, for instance, Wen has issued a blanket prescription for Narcan so every resident of the city can access it.
The White House announced in March that the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA) is releasing a new $11 million funding opportunity to states so they can purchase and distribute Naloxone and train first responders and others on its use.

Now that the face of addiction has changed, so has the response.

Once Obama, Congress and even health officials joined the chorus asking for "compassionate" care in confronting this crisis, it marked a drastic change in tone from the United States' long-running "War on Drugs" — which disproportionately affected minorities, specifically black men — often characterized by zero tolerance rules and stiff prison sentences.
Now that the conversation has become less about "junkies" who have made a criminal choice and more about everyday Americans getting hooked on prescription drugs, the national calculation has focused on the system leading to drug abuse. The use and overdose deaths due to opioids, including heroin and fentanyl, can be traced back decades, when physicians began to change the way they were prescribing opioids. Between 1991 to 2013, prescriptions for opioid painkillers increased from 76 million to 207 million per year in response to patient's pain concerns.
Opioid painkillers can be highly addictive, with users 40 times more likely to become addicted to heroin. The transition from abusing opioids to heroin can also be linked to money — one 30mg tablet of oxycodone can cost around $50, while a bag of heroin can be purchased in some places for $5.
An estimated 25,000 Americans die annually from opioid overdose, and the numbers are projected to keep rising.
"We are seeing more people killed because of opioid overdose than from traffic accidents — I mean, think about that," Obama said at a March meeting of the National Rx Drug Abuse and Heroin Summit. "It has to be something right up at the top of our radar screen."
Rare political reporter Yasmeen Alamiri and videographers Tolleah Price and Dan Yar spent months researching and reporting this series — traveling to Maryland, New Hampshire and other heroin-torn places while talking and listening to users, police officers, public figures and devastated families all torn apart by the heroin epidemic.

The Best Medicine
Evan looked at this lovely girl, a stranger to him. She seemed relieved to hear him speaking and to know that he was okay. It felt good to have someone worried about him. But...
had"Um..." he ventured, "do I know you?" Her eyes widened, and she seemed very nervous. A frightening thought occurred to him. "Dear God, do I have amnesia?"
All the tension melted away from her as she laughed heartily. It was so bubbly and infectious, Evan couldn't help but laugh along with her. When her mirth had passed, she said, "No, no. No amnesia. You... er, well, we don't really know each other. I just saw you get hit by the car and called 911."
And you came to the hospital to see me, Evan realized, touched. "Oh. Thank you! I guess that's inadequate, but I'm very grateful. I'm Evan, Evan Roken."
She laughed again. "I know. I'm Samantha Raijik."
His lip quirked in a crooked smile. "How often do people ask you to wriggle your nose?"
This time the humor bubbled up within her again, and it was a few moments before she answered. "Too often! I'm glad you didn't," she tossed back, amused.
Laughter is the best medicine, they say, but an even greater truism is that it is the beginning and strengthener of friendship...

Front tooth stained and discolored. What can I do? (photos)
Is it possible to whiten or correct the staining on my front middle tooth? It stains quicker than the rest. It's been filled. Would replacing the filling correct it? Is there a way to protect a filling so it doesn't stain again? My dentist x rayed the tooth and found it was not dead and did not have a new cavity. She said I would have to get an ~$900 cap to fix it, because the tooth underneath the filling is probably just yellower. Prior to the filling, this tooth was not discolored.
Doctor Answers 3
Stained tooth
Hello! thanks for write!. Bonding is indicate for patients that do not drink coffee or food with colorant because it will always be discoloured by the time. In spite of composite is cheaper than any other porcelain veneer, people should be a good candidate for it. I personally recommended you a teeth whitening and them replace the actual bonding with a porcelain veneer. You have to work with an especialist in esthetic dentistry to get really good results including the color. Asl you can go for dental tourism in another country where you can found cheaper prices.
Good luck!
Good luck!

Discolored front tooth
Great Question--with discolored teeth--you have 2 options--either bleach or cover the tooth--in this case it sounds like the composite and or tooth behind it is darkening --porcelain is a great option and composite in the hands of an accomplished cosmetic dentist can be a great option as well--the right materials in the hands of a dentist trained in cosmetic composite bonding can look great for many years. Good luck
Discolored Front Tooth
This discoloration can only be corrected by placing an all porcelain crown on the tooth. Good luck.

BeschreibungOtto III (980-1002) was one of the most powerful rulers in Europe in the late tenth century. He is also one of the most enigmatic. The son of the German emperor Otto II and the Greek princess Theophanu, he came to the throne at the age of three and was only twenty-one years old at the time of his death. Nonetheless, his reign had a lasting impact on both Germany and Italy for generations. In this book, Gerd Althoff provides a much-needed biography of this fascinating figure. In the process, he uses Otto's life to explain how in practice early medieval kingship worked.
PortraitGerd Althoff is Professor of History at the University of Munster. He has written numerous works on tenth-century Germany including, most recently, Die Ottonen (2000), which examines kingship more generally in the Ottonian dynasty. Phyllis G. Jestice is Assistant Professor of Medieval History at the University of Southern Mississippi and the author of Wayward Monks and the Religious Revolution of the Eleventh Century (1997).
