Smithson Valley falls to Sweeny —Sports, Page 5A Schoenthal Road dangers worry county, constable SWC Scores Texas Tech 62, Baylor 51 Texas A&M 72, Texas 57 SMU 73, TCU 65 By DORIAN MARTIN Staff writer A six-mile stretch of a Comal County road provides one of the quickest — and potentially most dangerous — routes for area residents, said a constable who would like to see that change. A stretch of Schoenthal Road between FM1863 and FM 3009 has been the subject of much discussion between Comal commissioners, Precinct 2 Constable Kermit Vetter, and citizens. Area commuters who travel to San Antonio jobs have found the route quicker than other options. "In the morning and the evening, there's quite a bit (of traffic)," Vetter said. Precinct 3 Commissioner Charles "Tart" Mund agreed. "It saves gas for people over on that side of the county." He estimated drivers save 3-4 miles in taking this route. The road's traffic also picks up on spring and summer weekends when people go to Canyon Lake, Vetter said. However, the constable believes the road has its share of dangers, especially to students riding a. Comal ISD bus. He said excessive speeds and a blind hill at the stop at Montanio Drive endanger children riding the school bus, as well as the occupants of the oncoming car. Vetter said the bus loads children on Montanio Drive and then crosses Schoenthal Road after stopping at the drive's stop sign. The bus picks up children on the opposite side of the road in the morning, while in the afternoon, the students walk across the road to go home. "The school bus driver can't see over this hill," See schoenthal, Page 12A Speeding cars using Schoenthal Road as a shortcut worry Kermit Vetter A New Braunfels New Braunfels, Texas Herald-Zcitun* Volume 93 —No. 41 82 Paaes — 6 Sections SUNDAY February 26, 1984 50 Cents 82 Pages — 6 Sections (USPS 377-880) Lloyd Doggett Bob Krueger Krueger, Doggett fait to get MAD backing SAN ANTONIO (AP) - U.S. Senate candidates Bob Krueger and Lloyd Doggett both claimed victory Saturday after the influential Mexican-American Democrats of Texas failed to agree on which of them to endorse. Krueger fell 237 votes short of getting two-thirds necessary for an endorsement from the 7,829-member organization, leading Doggett to claim victory. Krueger based his claim on the vote totals. He picked up 4,983 votes to Doggett's 2,073. The third Democrat in the race, U.S. Rep. Kent Hance of Lubbock, received no votes, even though he joined Doggett and Krueger in courting the group Saturday. Walter Mondale easily won the endorsement in the Democratic presidential race, getting 6,114 votes. Jesse Jackson was a distant second with 475 votes. Only about 600 people actually attended the MAD convention Saturday, but they were allowed to vote for the members of their various local MAD chapters who were not there. The backing of MAD and the Texas AFL-CIO are generally considered the two key endorsements in winning the Democratic nomination. "The percentage he (a candidate) gets here tends to be indicative of the kind of percentage he will get in the Hispanic community in the May primary," said Willie Valesquez, executive director of the nonpartisan Southwest Voter Registration and Education Project. Doggett, a state senator from Austin, said the MAD vote means that "no one has a lock on the Mexican-American vote. "Bob (Krueger) is desperate to win an endorsement and he is still batting zero," he said. But Krueger, who had been a strong favorite to win the endorsement, denied that his Hispanic support was soft MAD, which has been tom by a bitter internal leadership struggle in recent months, did reach a two-thirds agreement in other races, endorsing John Hill for chirt justice of the Texas Supreme Court and incumbent C.L Ray for Place 2 on that court Mideast cease-fire ends in barrage of shells BEIRUT, Lebanon (AP) — President Amin Gemayel's administration appealed Saturday for speedy U.N. intervention as the first full Marine combat unit withdrew from Lebanon and a day-old truce collapsed in a hail of shellfire State-run Beirut radio and privately owned stations said U.S. Navy warships opened fire Saturday night at artillery positions in the Syrian-controlled central mountains. The ships fired for about 20 minutes, the radios said. U.S. officials and Marine spokesmen in Lebanon could not be reached for <xKiuiM*f!t, and a Pentagon spokesman in Washington said he could not confirm the reports. State radio said Gemayel's office had asked Saudi Arabia and Syria to help arrange a new start for the truce, which reduced fighting for only a few hours. The reports of U.S naval shelling came after Lebanese army troops in the strategic mountain town of Souk-el-Gharb suffered a heavy barrage of artillery and rocket fire from Druse gunners in the nearby town of Aley. Mountain battles the previous night killed at least 20 people and wounded 39, police said. During the day, the Druse insurgents lobbed shells and rockets into east Beirut's Christian neighborhood of Ashrafieh, police said. The army battled Moslem militiamen across the mid-city "green line" dividing Beirut into Moslem west and Christian east. They traded fire with tank t annona and rocket-propelled grenades. Fuad Turk, undersecretary in the Lebanese Foreign Ministry. called in the ambassadors of the United States, the Soviet Union. Britain, Frame and China — tihe five permanent members of the U.N. Security Council. A ministry statement said Tork explained lebanon* position on the French draft resolution to Parks fee, annexation on City Council agenda A controversial Prince Solms parking-fee ordinance is up for second reading at Monday night s City Council meeting, and council will take a first vote on the raising of garbage-coliection fees Council will meet rn closed session at 7 p.m., to discuss legal and personnel matters, and will reconvene in open session at 7:30, or aa soon thereafter as possible The meeting will be held at City Hall. The first two things on the regular agenda are public hearings on the strip annexations of Krueger Lane and FM 1863. City Council completed those annexations late last year, but declared them invalid when members learned they had not followed the proper hearing procedure. Monday's hearings will be the first of two required on each piece of property The Prince Solms ordinance, which will authorize the Parks and Recreation Department to charge a $2 parking fee for each car entering Lebscher Circle, passed the first reading on a 4-2 vote, after some heated argument. The fee would be charged only on weekends and holidays during the summer months, but some council members think it will do little to alleviate traffic congestion in the surrounding neighborhood. The second ordinance on Monday's agenda would replace the Multinational Peacekeeping Force with a U.N. contingent. It said Tork told the ambassadors in separate meetings that Gemayel's administration wants the U.N. force's peacekeeping powers to extend over all of liebanon. Gemayel's office approves of the French proposal that U.N. troop* take up peacekeeping duties in "greater Beirut, but it wants them also to control highways linking the lebanese capital with other occupied parts of the country, according to the statement. Aa a means of speeding up Hie U N. deployment, it said, Tork suggested that advance units be drawn from another U N. force, known as UNIFIL, which has been stationed rn southern lebanon since 1978 Tork said lebanon would not object to U N. troupe handling the security of Palestinian refugee camps See MIDEAST. Page 12AInside add 12 per month to city garbage-coliection fees City Manager E.N. Delashmutt says the sanitation service comes up $200,000 short each year, with the difference being made up in taxes. The Greater New Braunfels Chamber of Commerce will present the 1983 audit report for the Convention and Tourist Fund, and the council will consider accepting a donation from the Wurstfest Association toward construction of a sidewalk in luanda Park. Two recommendation* from the city Parks and Recreation Advisory Board are on the agenda. At its Feb. 6 meeting, the board voted to ask the council to proceed with construction of a parking lot at Fredericksburg Road and luanda Street. It also recommended that the San Antonio Gypsies Motorcycle Club be allowed to rent Cypress Bend Park for a rally, as in the past.

Delashmutt. Mayor O.A. Stratemann Jr. said he had taken a quick look at the newest applications, which will be tucked into the City Council's agenda folders for Monday night. However, Stratemann indicated the council wouldn't do an in-depth review until after the March 2 application deadline. The mayor has sat up exacutive meetings every Saturday from March IO to April 2, whan council may discuaa, and possibly Interview the applicants. Stratemann said the group hadn't decided to interview any particular number. "It may be a consensus of opinion that we just have one or two that wifre interested in, and we'U just talk to those," he said. Or, if the turnout remains light, the council may end up talking to all the applicants. "If we had a hundred applications, obviously we couldn't interview all IOO af them," said CouncUmember Joe Rogers. But he noted that, "So far, it's hem rather slim picking*. I don't understand that, but I suppose there's areason." Both Rogers and Stratemann said they'd be willing to consider promoting from within th, organisation.

But his attorney, Linda Farm, appointed by the Texas State Teachers Association, has begun to look into a possible appeal Mark Robinett, director of TEA's hearing and appeals division, ruled Thursday that Jonas' cast be dismissed, and will make a similar recommendation to Commissioner of Education Raymon Bynum Still, Jonas has the right to appeal either decision.

text: It is just me or did it seem like Bledsoe would constantly lock on to Glenn yesterday? I know that he had very little time to throw, so he didnt really have time to scan the field. Mabye its the play calling, but it seemed like his favoritism toward Glenn hurt us. He was constantly looking for the deep throw to Glenn instead of hitting Keyshawn or Witten on a short-medium route. Also there were time where he just threw it up for Glenn. If Bledsoe is going to just throw it up, i would prefer he give 6'4" Keyshawn a jump ball rather than 5'11" Terry Glenn. Key usually has 4-5 inches on the CB, glenn usually has no height advantadge. I know Key isnt the fastest WR but hes a beast in terms of fighting for the ball, glenn is better at getting open with his speed. Im just saying if your going to throw to someone who is covered, throw to Key, not glenn. Bledsoe's favorite target is glenn (which isnt a bad thing, because hes probably our best wr), but sometimes (like against the giants) i think this hurts us. This isnt why we lost the game, its just something i noticed. Anyyone agree?

One page handwritten letter written by Lettie from Kew, Melbourne to her friends Nellie and Will in England, dated 19 November 1913. Lettie migrated to Australia on the SS Port Macquarie with her daughter Kit [Katie], in April 1913. This is one of two letters as well as a postcard featuring an image of the SS Port Macquarie which have survived having been found by the granddaughter of the recipient Nellie.
The letters suggests that Lettie is in domestic service and as she is still paying off an advance to Mrs Woodruff [either her employer or senior housekeeper] they probably arrived not too long before the letter was written. References to the boat also implies it still fresh in her memory. Lettie is working in Kew and she and Kit appear to be well treated, eating well and contemplating a trip to Tasmania for the summer months with her employer. She comments on the expensive standard of living, missing the small bargain shops in England as well as the difficulty for male employment except on the land and in the bush. It would appear that Lettie was sponsored to come out to Australia, a common practice particularly as a way of encouraging domestic and agricultural workers of which there was a great shortage in Victoria. Lettie also expresses her hopes to return to England after four years.
Physical Description
One page letter written on one side in black ink. Paper lined and has several creases where letter has been folded in half and then into thirds.
This small set of correspondence is significant as a representation of the life of an English domestic servant in Melbourne in the early 1900s. References to sponsorship, treatment, the price of goods, distance from home and urban employment opportunities offer a personal reflection on life in Melbourne, as well as touching on broader themes of migration and in particular the shortage of domestic and agricultural workers which resulted in large assisted migration schemes targeting British migrants for these types of employment.

The E55 is the latest and smallest of Nokia's E-series, business-focussed handsets. It measures a mere 9.9mm at its thickest point, so it really is incredibly slim for a fully-featured smartphone. But despite it's thinness, it shares the same impressive build quality as the other phones in the E-series range and certainly feels like it could stand up to a few knocks and scrapes.
The front face of the E55 is dominated by its large 2.4in display. The screen's resolution at 320 x 240 pixels is pretty good for its size and certainly provides enough room to comfortably view web pages or read longer emails. It looks pin sharp, too, and is relatively bright, although outdoors in direct sunlight it can be a tad difficult to read at times. However, in this respect it's not all that much worse than screens on many other devices we've used.
Beneath the display, Nokia has added two shortcut buttons for the calendar and email client, which let's face it, are the two features you're most likely to use on a daily basis. For navigation there's a chunky and responsive D-pad, plus two soft keys mounted on either side of the screen.
However, it's the main keypad that's perhaps the E55's most distinguishing feature. It's a 20-key, half-QWERTY affair, with two characters per key. To input the first letter you tap once, and to input the second you tap twice.
Alternatively you can avoid the need to multi tap by simply typing once on each key and letting the predictive text engine work out what word you're trying to input. This approach has been taken before on previous handsets, but with rather limited success. However, it works much better here mainly because the predictive text engine Nokia has used is much better than on those older models. You really can just tap away while letting the predictive text engine sort out the words in the background. We're used to the iPhone's soft keyboard and predictive text combination, which we're quite fond of, but the Nokia was probably a bit easier to get up to speed with and led to fewer mistakes.
The handset runs the 3rd edition of Nokia's Series 60 smartphone OS. Series 60 may not be the flashiest OS around, but it is very straightforward to use. It also includes a decent line-up of applications as standard including the QuickOffice software, PDF viewer and Windows Live Messenger. We also like the way you can set up and easily switch between work and personal profiles via a simple icon on the home screen.
The phone's browser is impressive too. While it can't compete with the likes of Safari on the iPhone or Google's browser on Android, it's definitely one of the better browsers we've seen on a candybar style phone, as it generally does a good job on page formatting and pops up a nice thumbnail view of previously visited pages when you hit the back button. The browser also supports Flash Lite, so some - but by no means all - Flash content can be displayed.
I think the E52 deserves a mention, seeing as it's essentially the same handset with a standard keypad instead of the odd QWERTY thing. ;)
^what he said.
Also, they both feature 600MHz processors, so notes on zippiness would be appreciated.
Oh, and does anyone know when the gold E52 is due for release?
I know that the camera isn't the most important feature of the E-series, but I've always thought that posting picture samples is something that TrustedReviews would do with a phone review.
Anyway this is a great phone. I have one on order and should arrive soon.
A couple of photo samples have now been added.
Video calling - "if you can be bothered" - why hasn't this service taken off? Answer it's too expensive for the marginal benefit it provides. If I was running a 3G network I'd look into providing large dollops of inclusive video minutes to the same network. That might encourage take up with the younger customers and therefore become more mainstream.
@timple: For me video calling is something I actively don't want to use the vast majority of the time. Just thought I'd throw that thought into the mix.
I find the Symbian OS horribly complicated - not straightforward at all. It is convoluted, awkward and annoying with seemingly endless nested menus. I want to like it from the E61 and now E71 I have owned, but I can't.
Do any of the mobile Skype apps support video? It's the only circumstance I could picture myself using it.
I actually love the Series 60 UI. I initially hated it, but that was because the hardware was slow. These days the phones are speedy enough and more than capable of handling the UI. I used to be a Windows Mobile guy but ditched it and went fully Symbian a couple of years ago. I have tried modern phones with 'modern' UI like Android and can't get the grip of it.
Anyway that is just me. I do find it billiantly intuitive, with advanced menus cleverly hidden only when you need it. I hope Symbian Foundation won't stop developing the none-touchscreen S60v3 interface when they move to Symbian^2.
I also like Symbian UI. It is fast and needs less processing power than other OSes. It is customisable and there are tons of 3rd party games and applications. Sat-nav, web browsing, Instant Messaging, e-mail - all you need is the right app for the job. I own S60v3 phone (Nokia 6120c), I have tested S60v5 phone (Nokia 5800XM) and I also hope, that Symbian Foundation won't ditch this OS in the near future.
3rd S60 supporter here -but then everyone knows that by now...
I can understand why newcomers may find it confusing at first, but I find the menu layout way more logical than say, SE phones. To me, they're the perfect, non-touchscreen interface. And I'm not a big fan of touchscreens in any case. Which is why I chose the E71. Anyway, I'm starting to sound like a commercial here... (what with s_p_i_d_e_r already almost saying "there's an app for that", we're straying way too close to Apple territory! Ugh :P).
Having made the mistake of a Sony P1 with a similar keyboard, I wouldn't go down this route again. The P1's keyboard was unusable. You might as well go for the e71 which is almost the same width and has independent keys.
I'd probably advise waiting for the E72 in that case. It'll have the faster processor and should be out this year.
Otherwise I find the E52 more appealing than E55: http://www.youtube.com/watc... {FF to 0:45, bits featuring the phone finish around 2:25}
I've had various N series phones, all of them letting me down after a period of time and with battery life. I then went and got an E65 for which i had for 2.5 years, it crashed on me (mind it was only the application) and the battery life was initially fantastic, but time has taken its toll and after years of abuse i decided to replace it with the e55
I've had this for a little over 3 days now, and after heavy usage (mainly exchange(mail) and importing contacts and photos etc) the battery is looking like it will fail some time tonight, it hasnt crashed yet, and im thoroughly impressed with it so far, its amazing quick, even my n series friends where amazed at its speed
well done nokia, keep up the excellent work on the e series
I think the photo's off this phone look really good, much better than the over hyped 'camera' phones with their silly pixel sizes we see on here normally.
I've been enjoying the camera on my nokia 6220, being out of the tech rat race can be nice sometimes ;)
The keypad here is different than the P1. The P1's keypad is actually a full QWERTY keypad but with 15 pivot keys that requires you to press the left or right side of each button.
The E55's keypad works much like Blackberry's Pearl.
As an aside, is there any good reason why TR doesn't have a mobile site? It is one of the slowest loading sites on every phone I've tried it on!
For all the coverage that the iphone, blackberry and android get the E71 must have far outsold them all. Nokia just quietly getting on with it. Haven't got an E71 myself but I've had a go with one and have to admit it was very nice.
QWERTY is the monster that wouldn't die - a 150 year old kludge designed to make typing much slower - and it's dispiriting to see it colonising today's latest smartphones with nary a mention of superior alternatives such as Dvorak.
When can we expect to see technology that gets us away from QWERTY piggery? The 23rd century perhaps?
I'd just like to add I have big manly hands, but love the E71 KB. I also love the number layout being in the middle as it aggravated me a lot when trying some of the HTC smartphones which have them on the left (may be the same for blackberries, can't recall as haven't had a go on one in a while).
@lukealexander: Try with Opera Mobile/Mini, it loads up fairly quickly on the E71 with Mini.

Parents sentenced in baby's death
By CHELSEA JENSEN
Stephens Media
The parents of a 10-month-old girl who drowned when she was left unattended in a tub of water with an older sibling were sentenced Friday to probation and jail time.
Collins K. Manago, 29, and Chevone Estoy-Keka, 23, of Kailua-Kona, were each sentenced to four years probation for second-degree assault and one year probation for second-degree reckless endangering in connection with the death of their daughter and for allegedly leaving their then-3-year-old son unattended in a tub on Nov. 26, 2011, according to 3rd Circuit Court records.
Each will also have to serve one year in jail for the assault offense and six months in jail for the endangering offense, with all but four months suspended, according to the sentence handed down by Kona Circuit Judge Elizabeth Strance.
Strance stipulated in the sentencing that Manago and Estoy-Keka's jail term could be reduced should they meet several criteria, including reunifying with their son; ceasing Department of Human Services intervention; remaining clean and sober for two years; and meeting counseling conditions. Each criteria met could result in a 30-day reduction in jail time.
Strance also ordered Manago and Estoy-Keka to each complete 200 community service hours within three and a half years of sentencing, according to court records. Both will also be required to wear electronic monitoring for a 60-day period; provide DNA and print impressions to police; and obtain full-time work or enroll in an educational or vocational training program.
Strance further ordered Manago, who was also resentenced in a prior felony abuse case, to complete a domestic violence intervention program and to write a letter of apology to Estoy-Keka. Manago and Estoy-Keka must also each pay $810 in fees, according to court records.
Estoy-Keka's sentence followed her guilty plea the same day to the assault and reckless endangering charges. Estoy-Keka had faced charges of manslaughter and second-degree reckless endangering in connection with the 2011 incident; however, the second-degree assault charge was added as part of new allegations that superseded the original July 2012 indictment.
Manago pleaded guilty March 4 to the assault and reckless endangering charges. Manago had also faced charges of manslaughter and second-degree reckless endangering. An allegation of second-degree assault was added as part of new charges that superseded the original July 2012 indictment.
According to Manago's change of plea, the 29-year-old admitted to engaging in reckless conduct that caused serious bodily injury to the girl and placing his son in danger of serious bodily injury by leaving the youngsters unsupervised in a tub of water.

The apartment is on the ground floor of an amazing historical building that dates back to the 1600s, probably built by a Bramante's scholar.
The loft is on two levels and can cozily host up to 4 people. In the first level there is a wide living room with a double sofabed, a fully equipped kitchenette and a bathroom with shower. On the second level there is a double bedroom with television.
Just out of the building you will be involved in the typical roman atmosphere, having an espresso in the popular bar of San Callisto or a beer in one of the several pubs spread all over in Trastevere.

Beoordelingen van andere accommodaties van deze host
was een gracieuze gastheer die ons begroette met ijver en onze twijfels en vragen goed opgelost.
fue un anfitrión amable que nos atendió con diligencia y resolvió nuestras dudas y preguntas adecuadamente.
We hebben erg genoten van ons verblijf in Rome in Davide's appartement. Een vriendelijk en warm welkom, een mooi, goed ingericht, schoon en comfortabel appartement in een zeer rustige straat in het centrum van Rome, een prachtig uitzicht vanaf het prachtige terras - wat anders zou men moeten het gevoel alsof je de hemel op aarde. Wij waardeerden Danieles 'en waardevolle hulp Davide met vervoer van en naar de luchthaven.
Het enige kleine nadeel was de verwarming in het appartement dat niet efficiënt genoeg was voor deze tijd van het jaar.
We very much enjoyed our stay in Rome in Davide's appartment. A friendly and warm welcome, a nice, well equipped, clean and comfortable appartment in a very quiet street in the center of Rome, a splendid view from the superb terrace - what else would one need to feel like you are heaven on earth. We also appreciated Danieles' and Davide's precious help with transport from and to the airport.
The only minor drawback was the heating in the appartment which was not efficient enough for this time of the year.
we hadden een geweldige tijd! het appartement was perfect, bedankt voor alles!
we had an amazing time!! the appartment was PERFECT, THANK YOU FOR EVERYTHING!!
De locatie van dit appartement is geweldig: binnen 5 minuten bent u bij het Pantheon, honderden restaurants tot uw beschikking, een bakker en een supermarkt en nog veel meer. De trappen zijn rustig taai (het voelt als een 6e verdieping appartement). Het balkon is echt mooi, maar zonder echt zicht vandaar de satelliet antenne. Davide en zijn partner zijn erg behulpzaam, dat was in ons geval noodzakelijk omdat de douche niet leveren warm water op een dag en de wifi werkte niet. We hebben er allemaal samen!
The location of this apartment is great: within 5 minutes you are at the Pantheon; hundreds of restaurants at your disposal, a bakery and supermarket and much more. The stairs are quiet tough (it feels like a 6th floor apartment). The balcony is really nice, however without a real view hence the satellite antenna's. Davide and his partner are really helpful, which was in our case necessary since the shower didn't provide warm water at one day and the wifi didn't worked. We enjoyed it all together!
Our family of four adults had a lovely and relaxing stay in Rome at your roof terrace. Accommodations, facilities and staff were excellent. Thank you Alessia and Roberto!
Nice apartment in an excellent location right in the hearth of Rome. We stayed in the apartment for 4 days in september and used the wonderfull roof terrasse alot. It is quite big and has a wonderfull view of the sourrunding roofs.
The apartment is nice, big bathroom and a nice kitchen with everything you need to make your stay confortable.
Make sure to eat at the restaurant in the same house no. 48 it is brilliant.
Booking and checking in went fine. However the communication is a bit confusing as you communicate both with the owner (who I think is Alessi), we were welcomed by an other couple and for questions regarding transport etc. you need to communicate with an agency who were not very responsive.
We were happy with our stay and will stay here again next time we visit Rome.
We enjoyed our stay in Rome. The house was ideally located near Piazza Navona and clean enough. However there were a few disappointments concerning the house. The bedroom has no window and only airconditioning which didn`t cool! The tap in the kitchen is not fixed tot the sink and moves about. And the showerhead in the bathroom is broken with attempts at repair and even a new showerhead in the closet which was the wrong size. Showering was not a pleasant experience! Although Alessia was friendly and immediately answered that they woud repair it, this of course wasn't done during our stay.... (and the fact that it had been repaired before implied that it was already a known problem). The state of the apartment doesn't match the price...
Very nice stay in a beautiful flat well furnished. Perfect location, close to everything. We 've had a problem with flodding in the flat. it was solved fluently on a Sunday and did not disturb our stay at all.
Location is perfect! Very central with a lot of nice restaurants nearby, but still quiet. since it is located in a little street. Hosts are gentle and helpful.
Very comfortable apartment, good value for money, in a quiet area, close to the tram station. When you know where to switch the transport lines - also quite easy to get to the popular places (to Vatican- better by train, to the Coliseum - by trams). The transfer to and from the airport was organised perfect and not expensive for Rome prises. The apartment is clean, contains everything you need, the keys were and instructions were provided directly in the apartment. There was one small problem with electricity, which was solved very quickly. The apartment owner (Alessia) was always available and helpful.
I would recommend this apartment for those who like to have some quiet rest after the walking in the crowds in Rome.
Regards, Anna

We invite you to share with us.) Tti.* winning numbers By ROSE MARIE EASH Staff Writer Congressman Lamar Smith met with county and municipal officials Thursday afternoon to hear their concerns and advise them of issues he will be addressing as Congress reconvenes next week. "I'm particularly interested in hearing from constituents on the health care reform issue," said Smith. "How important is it to them to be able to choose their health care provider, how important is it to have portability, that is be able to take their health care coverage with them from Congressman seeking input on possible health care solutions, crime prevention job to job, how important is it to coverall of the 37 million who don't have health care insurance and how important cost is to them." Smith also spoke about crime. "Crime has gone to the top of the public opinion polls in the last month," said Smith. Tm on the crime subcommittee and co-sponsored a piece of legislation that provides more money for federal prosecutors, more money for federal prisons and reforms the criminal justice system so we don't have these endless appeals by people on death row, for example. I would also like to have more rehabilitation for first time offenders." Specific requests for help with local issues came from District Attorney Bill Reimer and City Manager Mike Strands. Reimer asked for help with judicial reform and Strands requested assistance in locating funds for the completion of Interstate Highway 35 through New Braunfels. When the current construction project is completed on 1-35, three lanes of traffic will go north and south, except for a stretch of imenfcie miming through Comal County which will remain as two lanes on each side. Funding for widening the interstate in Comal County has not been approved. In attendance were Comal County Judge Carter Casteel, Commissioners Neil Craigmile, Moe Schwab, J.L. Evans and Cristina Zamora, County Tax Assessor/Collector Gloria Clennan and County Treasurer Bart Bartholomew.

High, shifty winds cause problems for firefighters battling grass fire yesterday near northside neighborhood By JENNIFER ROMPEL Staff Writer New Braunfels firefighters responded to a grass fire Wednesday afternoon that occurred near Richter Road and Interstate Highway 35. At times, because of the direction of the wind, the fire came dangerously close to several houses in the area. Firefighters received the call at 2:27 pm. Upon arrival, firefighters found a grass fire that covered one and one half acres of land, according to Capt Ray Hacker, of the New Braunfels Fire Department. He said one engine was originally called to the scene and later a brush truck and a tanker were requested The battalion chief was also on the scene. According to Hacker, the fire was started by sparks from a blow torch. He said there were some people from a company who working on a sign near 1H-35 and were using a blow torch. Because of high winds, the fire spread quickly, he said "When the wind blew to the north, it threatened houses to the north side," he said Firefighters went to the north side to contain the fire and then the wind shifted to the south. However, Hacker said the houses on the south side of the fire were never in danger. The last duck to leave the scene departed at 4:13 pm. No one was injured in the blaze. New Braunfels may have once seen earthquakes more powerful than the one that killed 27 people and caused billions of dollars in damage in California this week. But that was five to IO million years ago, during the Miocene Era, when the Balcones Fault Zone was formed, according to an Austin geologist. "There certainly have been earthquakes on the fault, but it was milions of years ago. There is no evidence of it being active in modem tunes," said Charles Woodruff, consulting geologist at the U.S. Geologic Survey office in Austin. "There have been a few tremors, very small, south of San Antonio, but they were probably caused by water injection and other (activities by people.)" Jourdanton, a small community south of San Antonio, experienced a minor qqpke last summer which registered a little over a three on the Richter Scale. Asked about the chancaaofa major quake in this area, Woodruff said there is almost no chance, then added, "Famous last words, right?... But it is pretty stable, pretty safe," he said. The Balcones Fault runs parallel to Interstate 35 and cuts through New Braunfels west of the highway. The escarpment at Landa Park and Comal Springs mark the fault's location. Millions of years ago, this was part of the Ouachita Mountain chain, but time and contintental drift caused the mountains lo erode and subside below the surface of the earth. The Aibrided mounters came together with softer rock to the east As South America drifted away from North America, the Gulf of Mexico opened and this area was part of a huge shallow sea. 'If you took a plate of glass and put it on a table, and moved it so that part of the glass is supported by the table and other part by nothing but air, the weight of the glass itself would probably eaux it to break eventually," explained Southwest Texas Stale University Professor of Geology Terry Tilton. "To the west of the fruit, the subsurface rock is crystal and hard rock. East off the fruit it is sedimentary rock, which does not have the strength of the rocks west of the fault." "Here at the university, the fruit runs past the library. The major springs in the area, Barton and Comal, are along the fruit line," Tilton said. 'The interesting thing about this region is the combination af the fruit, the limestone rock and the warm air from the Gulf, which causes massive thunderstorms," he said The fruit is really a series of parallel cracks in the limestone, and tremendous amounts of waler are taken underground by them and delivered to the aquifer " Jury selection for McDuff begins From Blaff and AP Reports Jury selection fix the trial of capital murder suspect Kenneth Allen McDuff is scheduled to bertin today in Seguin. McDuff, 47, la standing trial for his alleged involvement in the disappear-anoe of an Austin woman, Colleen Reed Searchers on foot, horseback and in helicopters never found her body. McDuff was originally sentenced to death in 1966 fix the murder of two teen-age boys and the rape and strangulation of another boy. His sentence was changed to life imprisonment after the U S Supreme Court struck down the death penalty in 1972. He was paroled in 1989. Because of intenx media coverage, compounded by McDuff a controversial parole, the trial was moved from Austin to Seguin.

The Playhouse seats over 700 people so for most concerts there are plenty of seats, even for "walk-up" patrons, and sight and sound are good in any section. The large capacity (for chamber music, anyway) has advantages: you can almost always find a seat where you wish, spread out, sit near anyone you like, and even change your seat (at intermission, we hope).
We divide the house for most concerts. Pay a little more and sit closer to the players. These Premium tickets are usually the first 10 rows. But that doesn't mean you can't hear the music as well in the seats farther from the stage. Regular are the rest of the seats. Some veterans prefer to sit around the periphery and enjoy the gentle outside breezes. For concerts for which we expect a large attendance, we sell designated seats to avoid overselling.
Special prices for special people. Ask at the box office about:
$1 for ages 18 & under
$5 for adults accompanied by a youth available the night of the concert

While holidaying on Tobago we had the chance to take a snorkelling and bird-watching trip on a glass-bottomed boat out of Speyside to visit the island of Little Tobago. While waiting at Blue Waters Inn for the trip to start an osprey was fishing in the bay. The sea was calm in the bay, but on rounding Goat Island the rollers made the journey less comfortable for those who experienced sea-sickness. Before docking on Little Tobago, we took a brief detour to a roosting spot for Brown Boobies where three adults and a juvenile were present. Landing on the island was reminiscent of some trips to the Farnes where the step off from the boat had to be well
timed due to the rise and fall of the waves. All safely ashore we started up the steep walkway to the top of the island. Along the way we saw the home of trap-door spiders alongside and even on the path itself, and the burrows of Audubon shearwater. A Trinidad motmot came quite close, but a fuscous flycatcher kept to the higher branches of the trees. We took a breather from the climb at a house that was used by Ian Fleming while writing an early Bond novel. There were blue-grey tanagers feeding around the house and short-tailed swifts passing overhead.
On the next part of the climb to the top we were rewarded with views of a young yellow-headed caracara sitting on a high branch. When we reach the observation platform we were rewarded by views of hundreds of red-billed tropicbirds as the circled around the cliffs trying to time their landings at their nest sites. One nest was centimetres from the observation platform itself. Also in the air were magnificent frigatebirds trying to ambush the tropicbirds on the return to the nest, hoping to force them to regurgitate their catch. This was the site that this was filmed for David Attenborough's series The Trials of Life. Other birds present were brown boobies in large numbers and red-footed boobies displaying all three colour morphs of this species. A yellow-crowned night-heron flew past below us and settled on the edge of the cliff and two yeloo-headed caracara flew overhead.
All too soon we returned to the boat for the snorkelling, which some of the party decided to forgo. The reef where we snorkelled was not in the best condition but this was the only site on the island we saw triggerfish. The tour guide offered us the chance to stay on the island and return later with his afternoon trip. So when we docked to pick up the non-snorkelers, Alison and I jumped ashore to spend a quiet time on the beach and enjoying more snorkelling before the afternoon trip arrived.
We headed back up to the observation point before the next party land and the sky held even more tropicbirds than earlier in the day and we had several views of frigatebirds grabbing hold of tropicbirds, but only on one occasional was it clear that regurgitation had taken place. Some tropicbirds lacked tail-streamers as a result of these attacks.
We had a close view of another red-billed tropicbird nest on the way down and were treated to very close views of giant hermit crab amongst the undergrowth, well away from the sea. We returned to the main island rather tired but very satisfied with our experience of Little Tobago.

New VA director appointed
DANVILLE — The Department of Veterans Affairs has appointed a new director to lead the Illiana Health Care System based in Danville.
In the next 45 days, Japhet Rivera will be re-locating from a VA facility in San Juan, Puerto Rico, where he serves as deputy director, to Danville, where he will oversee delivery of health care to more than 33,000 veterans and a $200 million budget in the Illiana system, which covers central Illinois and west central Indiana.
Rivera said he is a veterans' advocate.
"[M]y goals and decisions will be veterans centered," he said. "We will continue working to provide timely access to quality health care. We need to also focus on our veterans needing mental health care and those that are homeless. I look forward to getting to the Midwest and working with the staff at VA Illiana Health Care System."
Paul Bockelman, a network director with the VA, said Rivera has strong leadership qualities and experience. He said the facility, employees, volunteers and veterans will be in good hands under his leadership.
In addition to serving in the VA's Carribean Healthcare System, Rivera has served as acting director of the Robert J. Dole VA Medical Center in Wichita, Kan., and as associate director for the Miami VA Health Care System. While serving as acting director at Robert J. Dole VA Medical Center, Rivera improved veteran access and started a middle-management training program focused on mentoring and diversity.
Rivera also served in the United States Army Medical Department from 1987 to 2007.
Rivera will be the second permanent director of the Illiana system since Michael Hamilton retired in December 2011. Hamilton came to Danville in 2008. Emma Metcalf became the Illiana director on March 11, 2012, following Hamilton's retirement. She then accepted the director's position at the Lexington VA Medical Center on Aug. 25 of last year.

|And now, from New York, the most dangerous city in America, it's Saturday Night Live. (seventh season)
Saturday Night Live (abbreviated as SNL) is an American late-night live television sketch comedy and variety show created by Lorne Michaels and developed by Dick Ebersol. The show premiered on NBC on October 11, 1975, under the original title NBC's Saturday Night. The show's comedy sketches, which parody contemporary culture and politics, are performed by a large and varying cast of repertory and newer cast members. Each episode is hosted by a celebrity guest (who usually delivers an opening monologue and performs in sketches with the cast) and features performances by a musical guest. An episode normally begins with a cold open sketch that ends with someone breaking character and proclaiming, "Live from New York, it's Saturday Night!", properly beginning the show.
Tim Meadows: Did he say anything about people getting hurt?
Lorne Michaels: He said something after the ratings thing, but I really wasn't listening.

I cannot tell from any of the write-ups on the AE4000 whether or not the Lens Memory With Auto Detection feature memorizes the horizontal/vertical lens shift positions that might also be necessary to center the various aspect ratio images when the projector has been mounted off-center from the screen.
I understand it memorizes various zoom positions necessary to produce a lower-cost CIH benefit, but what about the horizontal/vertical lens shift positions that might also be necessary in off-set pj mounting?

PRESS DIGEST- Canada- June 1
June 1 (Reuters) - The following are the top stories from selected Canadian newspapers. Reuters has not verified these stories and does not vouch for their accuracy.
** The federal Competition Bureau has secured a court order forcing Loblaw Cos Ltd to produce a raft of internal documents to determine whether the grocer pushed its suppliers into giving it attractive deals in ways that could be anti-competitive. (bit.ly/1M3fEl3)
** The Conservative government's bill to make some convicted killers spend life in prison with no parole - introduced with great fanfare in early March - is now unlikely to pass before the coming federal election. The Canadian government says it is running out of time to proceed with the controversial Life Means Life legislation, also known as Bill C-53. (bit.ly/1Gg2lil)
** A new report released Monday on marine conservation efforts says Canada is severely lacking in the quantity and quality of its protection for ocean ecosystems. The report released by Canadian Parks and Wilderness Society points to flaws in Canada's marine protected areas - zones intended to conserve aquatic species and habitats under various provincial and federal legislation.

Washington, Feb 27 (ANI): US President Barack Obama has said that Colonel Muammar el-Qaddafi "has lost the legitimacy to rule" Libya because he is only using "mass violence" to cling on to power, and asked him step down immediately.
A White House account of a telephone call between Obama and Chancellor Angela Merkel of Germany said that the President had told Merkel that "when a leader's only means of staying in power is to use mass violence against his own people, he has lost the legitimacy to rule and needs to do what is right for his country by leaving now," The New York Times reports.
Later on Saturday, the United Nations Security Council had voted unanimously to impose sanctions, including a travel ban and the freezing of assets, on Qaddafi and other Libyan leaders.
Amid ongoing unrest in Libya, the United States has already shut down its embassy in Tripoli, and also imposed unilateral sanctions against the oil rich country.
It froze billions of dollars of Libyan government assets and announced that it would do the same with the assets of high-ranking Libyan officials who took part in the violent crackdown, the paper added. (ANI)

Clifford Chance managing partner Matthew Layton has appointed a new-look executive leadership group to replace its management committee following a dramatic overhaul earlier this month.
The firm rewrote its constitution after a vote last week to replace its practice group and regional heads by appointment rather than via elections. Clifford Chance also voted to establish a new slimmed-down leadership committee with global business units instead of practice areas (25 July 2014).
All of the leadership roles on the committee were potentially up for renewal as part of the process regardless of the stage of their term (24 July 2014).
Current finance head Mark Campbell will now step down five months early to be replaced by finance partner Robert Lee. Lee takes up the new role as head of a global financial markets unit. He will also be the first-ever appointed finance head.
Lee has spent the past four years as co-head of Clifford Chance's London finance practice along with banking partner Michael Bates following a 2010 election (26 March 2010).
Capital markets head David Dunnigan, who previously sat on the committee is also stepping down five months early and will be replaced by new capital markets head Adrian Cartwright.
As a practice group leader, Cartwright will not have a seat on the committee. Global real estate head Alfonso Benavides and tax, pensions and employment head Chris Davies will also step down from the group.
Germany head Andreas Dietzel will end his term one month early and will be replaced by new appointed Germany managing partner Peter Dieners.
The firm has also created a new Continental Europe role for the group, with Paris head and one-time firm-wide managing partner contender Yves Wehrli in that role (18 March 2013).
It leaves the new group with 11 roles split among the three new global business units (GBUs), four regional managing partner spots and five executive positions as well as the managing partner.
The other two GBUs consist of a global M&A and corporate transactions/advisory group and a risk management and disputes group. New global corporate head Guy Norman will sit at the top of the M&A group.
Current head of litigation Jeremy Sandelson will take up the reins as head of the new global risk management, litigation and dispute resolution team. He was re-elected to his role in October 2013 and sat on the management
Current Asia Pacific head Peter Charlton will continue in his role on the group as well as Americas head Evan Cohen. Wehrli also sat on the committee previously having been elected in 2010.
Layton took up his role on 1 May 2014 (27 November 2013).

Rosalita:Memory laneMature
I was stuck on memory lane, even when I woke up the next morning, it was with a glazed look in my eye. Ranette noticed my absent minded attitude, and she smiled at me as I wandered around the kitchen.
"I might go and work at the strip club tonight." She put my pancakes on the table.
"Huh? Right, ok."
"Huh?" I looked up at her.
"I just said I might go work at the strip club tonight, and you didn't even notice. What's up?"
"Strip club, really?"
"Oh shut up and eat your pancakes."
"Fine." I munched on my pancakes, and then sighed and put my fork down. "I'm sorry. I'm just stuck on my memories of college."
"Oh really? What memories?"
"Just...parties, dates, people, things like that."
"I see."
"Yeah, it'll pass. I thought we weren't supposed to get the good old days treatment until we were older?"
"Life is strange like that."
"I think you're right. Well, we'd better get to work, or else we may as well keep looking back in to the past, because there sure as hell won't be any future." I stole a kiss and then went to get ready, my mind still back in the 'good old days'.

Lara not inviting ex boyfriends to her wedding
What's strange is that in the episode of Koffee With Karan, that airs this Sunday (January 16), the actress told the host that she is still good friends with her exes Dino Morea and Kelly Dorje.
Still friends?
While her relationship with Dino ended abruptly and bitterly, Lara was with Kelly for 10 years, and they've remained friends after the break-up, so it's surprising that his name is missing from the guest list.
In KWK, when Karan asked her about Dorje, she spoke warmly about him adding, "I will always care very deeply for Kelly."
However she chose not to elaborate on her equation with Dino. She simply said, "Dino and I are friends from school and shared a very good equation." And added that post-breakup, they hadn't been in touch much though she considers him to be a friend having known him for years they'd started their modeling careers at the same time.
No awkwardness
A source close to the actress maintains she's "good friends" with her exes Dino and Kelly but hasn't invited either to her wedding "Because she doesn't want any awkward moments during the ceremony or the reception."
Dino admits, "I haven't been invited to Lara's wedding. I am not in touch with her since our breakup." Kelly Dorje could not be reached.

RE: Harp Family in Antioch Cemetary Thomaston
Thanks, Keith! I appreciate your help. I keep locating family members who are buried in this cemetery and will continue to create memorials for each of them as I locate them. It's a slow process but definately worth it... thank you for helping with my requests. I deeply appreciate your efforts.

Re: McBryde Family Cemetery
Hi Keith.
Thank you for your message. I'm sorry I wasn't able to reply to it quicker.
I have photos of all the headstones at the McBryde cemetery, except for maybe one or two that were covered in enormous growth during the summer I was there. Can you send me the photos by email first? I am a little "protective" of this little old cemetery. I only wish that I had entered it in myself after visiting it. Unfortunately, the creator has a couple of wrong listings and she has never replied to any of my correspondence over the last YEAR.
Now, I have to ask. Are you realted to the Amos family buried in this cemetery? I have to assume you are with the same last name. Especially since this isn't exaclty a large or well visited cemetery. I would love to know more about the Amos family if so.
I look forward to hearing back from you.
Thank you,

RE: Dimsdale and Powers Graves
Thanks for looking for the Dimsdale and Powers graves in the Shiloh Baptist Cemetery, Thomaston, Upson County, GA.
Since you were unable to locate their graves, I'm going to remove the FindaGrave requests for their tombstone photos.
They should have been buried close to Clara (Johnson) Powers Dimsdale.
Also, thanks for your offer for a photo of Clara's tombstone. However, there is already one posted on her memorial.
I appreciate your efforts.

RE: Harp Grave Glennwood Cemetary.
Oh, my gosh, Keith.... I can't say thank you enough for all your work! I am deeply greatful to you for taking time to do this for me. This morning I received a list of all the Harp Family members buried in Glenwood Cemetery from the Thomaston/Upson Archives. I'm hoping to create memorial pages for each of them and your photos will be enormously helpful! I'm in the process of writing a book about the Harp Family so I can share it with my family and others who are related to the Harp clan. From the bottom of my heart, thank you. If it's easier to email the photos to me, you can send them to my email account: email@example.com

RE: Harp Grave Glennwood Cemetary.
Thanks, Keith. I appreciate your help with my request. Be sure to claim the assignment on findagrave so no one else claims it before you do. Would you also be willing to look while you are there and see if there are other Harp's buried in Glenwood Cemetery? I know these family members are already buried there and have memorial pages on findagrave:
Harp, Alfred Pleasant
Harp, Arthur Alfred
Harp, Celia Edmonson
Harp, Dixon Martin
Harp, Ella Elizabeth
Harp, Roscoe Albert
Harp, Varner
Harp, William Alfred Senior
I'm pretty sure there are others buried there but I have no idea of who they are, as I can't locate a list of those who are buried in Glenwood Cemetery. I believe all the Harp's are buried in one section of the cemetery.
Thank you again for your help with my request.

Serbian courts were brought to a standstill last month when the legal profession went on strike over tax.
The strike started in Belgrade, but spread nationally over the seven-day stoppage. Courts have now reopened, pending the Serbian government meeting the demands of the legal profession.
The conflict is over the state taxes lawyers are obliged to pay. They were increased by 200 per cent in the last year as the government tried to finance an economy recovering from war and trying to cope with an influx of 800,000 refugees.
"We want a minimum reduction of about 30 per cent," said Milan Vugin, president of the Serbian Bar Association.
"We've had meetings with the Minster of Finance and the Minister of Justice and the signs are positive."
If the legal profession's demands are not met by the end of December, it threatens to strike again. Others, such as the medical profession, may follow the same route to see if they can extract tax concessions.
Vugin says he expects the state to finance the running of the country by improving the economy.

If you are considering cosmetic dentistry or an involved general dentistry procedure, the cost can be daunting. We understand, and work hard to make the best dentistry available to everyone.
This includes working to control costs, helping you file with your insurance company, and offering flexible financing options for you.
The best way to learn about your payment options is to talk to us in person. Please call (407) 834-6446 or email the office of Dr. Michael L. Weinstock today to talk about payment options for cosmetic dentistry in the Orlando area.
Cost and Quality in Dentistry
At our office, we work hard to control costs by increasing the efficiency of our practice, but we will not sacrifice the quality of care we deliver in order to make our dentistry cheaper. Cheap dentistry is expensive in the long run, not only in terms of the need for repeat treatments, but also in terms of the suffering and ill health they can cause.
We offer quality dental care at a fair price. The fees we charge for dental procedures we offer are reasonable for the materials, time, and expertise required to deliver them.
Dental Insurance
Dental insurance generally does not cover purely cosmetic dentistry procedures, but many cosmetic dentistry procedures are beneficial to your oral health and may be partly or fully covered. It can be hard to understand which procedures are covered, so we can help you read and interpret the terms of your coverage. We can even help you file claims with your insurance company so that the procedures are properly classified so they can be appropriately compensated.
If we file a claim with your insurance company, we only ask that you pay the estimated copay at the time of treatment. However, it is common for coverage to change or the insurance company may disagree with our classification of a procedure and the coverage may be less than anticipated. In this case, you will be expected to pay the full difference between coverage and the fee.
Financing for Cosmetic Dentistry
Because many cosmetic dentistry procedures have at best minimal coverage through insurance, we offer financing to help you fit cosmetic dentistry into your budget.
CareCredit isn't a traditional financing plan, it's more like a credit card that is dedicated to your healthy, beauty, and wellness expenses. However, it has many benefits compared to the credit cards you already have:
- No interest payment plans: If you make a purchase of $200 or more, you qualify for an interest-free repayment period of at least 6 months. For larger amounts, interest-free financing periods can be as long as 24months.
- Financing at 14.9% APR is available for periods of up to 60 months for expenses of at least $2500.
- Easy approval process can be completed at home before your appointment or even while you're in our office.
The exact terms of your financing will depend on the cost of your procedure and your credit terms.
If you have additional questions about financing your cosmetic dentistry procedure, please call (407) 834-6446 or email Michael L. Weinstock for an appointment.
