Northern Pass unveils new plan for power lines
PSNH President Gary Long is optimistic the planned route will be the breakthrough that will get Northern Pass into the fast lane, but critics are still not sold.
"We've done our homework and we are ready to move forward," Long said of the path of hydroelectric transmission lines proposed from Canada to Deerfield. "We now have a complete path that we can do under existing laws and existing rules."
The new proposal shifts the northern part of the lines east and away from the conservation areas near the Connecticut Lakes headwaters, and in a reversal of positions, project organizers now say at least eight miles of the lines will be buried underground.
"It's nice to see that the Northern Pass folks finally discovered a shovel," said Jack Savage of the Forest Protection Society.
Calling the change a baby step in the right direction, Savage said that given the amount of money the utilities stand to make from the project, more of the lines should be buried.
"It can be done. It's a matter of sitting down and having a willingness to sit down and look at it and do it, and that's what we hope they will continue to do," Savage said.
Gov. Maggie Hassan said she is pleased the project organizers are listening to affected residents, but is far from sold.
"I still have a lot of questions," Hassan said. "What about the White Mountains National Forest? What's the impact on that? What's the impact on the economy of our communities and our scenic views?"
The new route would increase the price tag of the privately funded Northern Pass from $1.2 billion to $1.4 billion.
"It's a more expensive route," Long said. "The benefit that communities get is that it means more for tax revenues for Coos County."
Several members of the business community also attended the announcement to lend support.
Franklin Mayor Ken Merrifield said the economic boost for his city couldn't be overstated.
"This project is a special opportunity to reshape our community's future with new tax revenue at a time when demand for services is increasing and budgets are tight," he said.
Representatives from several chambers of commerce also signaled their support.
But permitting questions and federal scrutiny remain and groups, like the Conservation Law Foundation, plan to fight the plan. The foundation, a leading critic, called the route "a Band-Aid on a gaping wound."

Your prescription information is on the right hand side of your contact lens box. For accuracy we suggest using this to make sure you order the correct lenses.
Very comfortable.
I have ordered daily lenses from Vision Direct for many years, and have tried various brands, some of which have disappointed. Lately switched to Proclear lenses and have been delighted with them, particularly in relation to comfort and lack of tearing. Excellent value too means I am not not likely to change brands in the foreseeable future.
Alan Jackson, Livingston
The best lenses by far!Very comfortable and value for money!
We have been customers of vision direct for several years. We have always received the correct lenses very promptly. The most recent order was received within 18 hours of being placed. Outstanding service. Thank you!
A truly outstanding pruduct, haven't worn my specs since!! Easy to fit, great vision clarity, and most importantly for me, ultimate comfort. My favorite lenses.
Amazing lenses! They don't dry out my eyes and don't irritate them at all.
I just switched from monthlies and Proclear 1 Day fit me well! They are so convenient!

Julian Assange: was this the face that launched a thousand probes? Apparently so, as the Australian's threatened release of hundreds of thousands of documents (about 15,000 of them marked "secret") from within the United States government regarding the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq has made him some very powerful enemies and sparked a global debate on government transparency and journalistic responsibility.
As many others, including my colleague Jeremy Geelan, have reported, the Assange/WikiLeaks leaks raise very serious questions about governance and security within the US federal IT infrastructure. The US government simply must answer, and answer soon, if one low-level soldier really did have access to all this information; if so, why; and in any case, what will be done to tighten things up about two dozen notches.
Newly Found Power
This case also reveals the power of the Web, and the power of Cloud Computing. The WikiLeaks site can continue to be relocated almost anywhere in the world. This may be inconvenient to Mr. Assange, but who said taking on powerful governments was ever convenient?
Surely, even if WikiLeaks wears out its welcome in the Western world, there will be somebody, somewhere willing to host the site and deliver its information from the clouds to the desktops, notebooks, and smartphones of the world.
Also most assuredly, Mr. Assange's antics will encourage others to leak and reveal previously hidden communications on a scale unimagined a generation ago.
But should it? Are we really launching into a new era of heroic whistle-blowers, unprecedented revelation, and therefore, governmental transparency?
Start with the fact that the leaks have, so far, revealed nothing earthshaking. That diplomats obscure the truth in their public statements, that even close allies snoop on each other, and that perceived societal pressures cause country leaders to, uh, lie now and then are well-understood realities.
One little subtext also involves the rather indiscriminate use of secrecy classifications for many government documents. It reminds me of grade inflation or clothing sizes. Yesterday's 3.5 GPA is today 4.2, that women's size 4 is more like an 8, and you can fit into those 36-inch pants because they're really 38.5 inches around. Confidential often isn't really anymore, and numerous investigations have noted that the use of Top Secret is often inappropriate, sometimes comically so. The inconsistencies and labyrinthian nature of the US government's classification and compartmentalization programs are numerous and profound.
Computance and Skil
But to me, the big, overriding issue here is one of competence, or rather, a lack of such by Mr. Assange. His quest is admittedly driven by ideology, and he has brought the wrath of governments upon his shoulders in unskillful, inept fashion. Although his WikiLeaks releases have been compared to the Pentagon Papers and Watergate revelations, there are critical differences that beg to be outlined.
The first difference is that Neil Sheehan of the New York Times (with the Pentagon Papers), then a few years later, Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein of the Washington Post (with Watergate) were journalists first and foremost. They were skilled in their craft, careful with their source material, and committed only to weaving together stories of substance based on what their training and skill told them was important.
In the Pentagon Papers case, the whistle-blower, Daniel Ellsburg, was privy to policies and documents that outlined a long-term, massive web of lies by the Lyndon Johnson administration regarding the Vietnam War. The Times coverage, and later coverage by the Washington Post, focused on specific aspects of the papers that revealed the government deception that led to untold deaths of American soldiers and Vietnamese soldiers and citizens.
The Times was also provided some cover by the reading of many of the documents into the public record by a United States senator who also felt there was a compelling story to be told. These revelations were a bit more serious than whether Angela Merkel is cautious (you don't say?) or Vlad Putin is bossy.
Watergate was an equally serious story, one in which an infamous "third-rate burglary" turned into a massive cover-up headed by President Richard Nixon and which eventually led to a near-constitutional crisis and finally, to Nixon's resignation.
Although both of these famous cases eventually led to the release of voluminous information for reporters and historians to pick through for the next few hundred years, in neither case was the source material itself the entire story.
A Filterless Environment
But with WikiLeaks, Mr. Assange placed himself in the simultaneous position of whistleblower and publisher. Although he has apparently sent the documents he's leaked so far to several leading news organizations, it seems he's holding onto the possibility of having no filter between what he has been given and what he will release. In that case, he would exercise no editorial judgment in the matter. This may be seen as the point of the whole exercise; after all, we're entering our second decade of the decline of mainstream media and the rise of citizen journalism.
To me, this is the huge flaw in Mr. Assange's approach. Citizen journalism is no better than the citizens who report it. It is just another function of Warhol's "15 minutes of fame" dictum, in which there are precious few arbiters of taste or talent in deciding who or what is of consequence. So, during the present era, we've migrated from Marilyn Monroe to Kim Kardashian, from Robert Culp and Bill Cosby to Snooki and The Situation, from Tammy Wynette to Miley Cyrus, and from Sheehan and Woodward and Bernstein to Julian Assange.
There are certainly any number of very strong, even marvelous writers out there, reporting with craft and passion on politics, business, music, film, sports, etc. And there are certainly any number of mainstream media companies pounding out dreck--from Yahoo's groundbreaking coverage of topics such as "pitfalls of watching shopping channels" to the San Francisco Chronicle's "reports" on high-end real estate, to the present-day Washington Post's obsession with "narrative" and "arc" rather than, you know, reporting.
All of this, the good and the less good, have been driven by the insatiable appetite of the Web for more information every second of every day. What Mr. Assange has done is a manifestation of this.
Let Me Ask You This...
But I would ask the civil libertarians in the crowd--the folks who are heaping unadorned praise on Mr. Assange and unvarnished scorn on the US government and its allies--has WikiLeaks really accomplished anything positive? Are governments going to be more likely or less likely to be transparent? Setting aside the strident rantings of the Joe Liebermans of the world, has there been damage done?
Would you enjoy it if every email you have sent out for the past five years was suddenly subject to public scrutiny? Even if you've committed no crime and are the world's most loyal and productive worker bee, have you ever passed along a dirty joke or a nice boob shot? Do you think you might be unfairly judged if you have and this information was suddenly in public circulation?
The leaker Daniel Ellsburg was prosecuted in the wake of the Pentagon Papers crisis. As is known to happen, the prosecutors overshot their mark, did some bungling, and he was not convicted of anything. The Nixon administration further rattled its saber at the media during the Pentagon Papers and the Watergate episodes. Nothing came of it. The First Amendment ruled, as it should today.
Again, these two cases revealed true government malfeasance, the kind that brings entire administrations down. The WikiLeaks case has done no such thing. If Mr. Assange were to have combed through the materials he received, found a great story that simply must be brought to light, then reported on it, he would be on much steadier ground today.
As things stand, Reporters Without Borders is among the organizations that are critical of his approach. Even if he has not yet endangered national security (and I think most people doubt he has), his approach does have the potential to endanger the lives of many people doing deadly work. To argue that all war-related information should be available to everyone is very naive. To be deadset against war is honorable, and to uncover its abuses honorable.
But it seems that Mr. Assange's actions are neither. Although his site says it is committed to keeping governments open, his actions will no doubt lead to further government attempts to control the Internet and Web, yet add no value to body politic. We should never underestimate the inherent potential of fascism within any society. There had already been a lot of hot-and-heavy talk of an "Internet kill switch" in the US (by the egregious Sen. Lieberman, among others). Skillful, useful reporting will not hand any victories to those in favor of such mad ideas; unskilled, random leakage of any and all things will.
Explosive growth in connected devices. Enormous amounts of data for collection and analysis. Critical use of data for split-second decision making and actionable information. All three are factors in making the Internet of Things a reality. Yet, any one factor would have an IT organization pondering its infrastructure strategy. How should your organization enhance its IT framework to enable an Internet of Things implementation?

On the back of the unsightly excitement of Parasite, something like rigor sets in as the second half of what was a duology turns into the middle volume of a tolerance-testing trilogy. Symbiont isn't a bad book by any means—it's accessible, action-packed, and its premise remains appallingly plausible—but absent the ambiguity that made its predecessor so very unsettling, it's lamentable for its length and lack of direction.
The first part of Parasitology chronicled the apocalyptic consequences of SymboGen's latest and greatest innovation: the ubiquitous Intestinal Bodyguard—a magic pill meant to protect against allergy, illness and infection—was a worm which, in time, turned; a symbiotic organism supposed to support its host yet set, instead, on supplanting said. Before long, of course, this conflict of interests turned the population of San Francisco and its suburbs into zombies of a sort—sleepwalkers, as Mira Grant would have it.
The transition went differently for a few folks, though. After a catastrophic car crash, and at the cost of her every memory, Sally Mitchell's parasite saved her life... or so she thought.

Review by Eliot Hochberg
If you've read my review of
The Dalek Generation
, you probably already realize that when it comes to reviewing a book, I pay attention to weird things. I don't apologize for that, at least not typically, because after all, there are hundreds of reviews of various books, and I want to make things interesting.
It seems, though, like I'm apologizing here, and I guess I am, because despite the fact (spoiler) that I like this book, I'm about to be a bit of a dick. As The Doctor might say, can't be helped.
Before I get to the book proper, then, I wanted to observe something. In reading
BBC Doctor Who: The Plague of the Cybermen
, by Justin Richards, I noticed that it really didn't seem to take as long to read as
The Dalek Generation
did. Maybe two plus hours instead of the three plus hours
took. There could be many reasons for this, and frankly, it probably isn't important in the grand scheme, but I couldn't stop wondering why. Well, maybe the book is shorter? If you go by page numbers, no. In fact
is 254 pages, while
is 253.
It could be the writing style. In my review of
, I observed that we read a lot of The Doctor's inner thoughts. Not so with
. In fact, I only found one passage in the entire book that lifted the curtain on The Doctor's thoughts. Maybe this was why it was easier to read?
Perhaps. Thing is,
definitely felt like a few episodes of Doctor Who, whereas
felt more like one episode. That's not a dig on it. It's just a function of how many things happen in the story, how many new locales there are, how many new characters.
is more contained in one location, while
expands across both time and space, and in each locale, we meet new people, races, mysteries, etc.
Then I decided to look closer at the pages themselves. Have a look:
Dalek Generation
on the left,
Plague of the Cybermen
on the right.
And no, no bonus points if you count the number of lines per page,
or the number of characters per line. At least, I didn't get any.
See it? It's subtle, and as I have already mentioned, not that important, and certainly not pertinent to the stories. And a bit dickish to mention to boot. But... the fonts are different sizes! That's right, I noticed the fonts were different, and in my quest to be even more annoying (one presumes), I've taken time to scan the pages to show you.
By my estimation, there are about 25% more words in
than there are in
. Doesn't mean one's better than the other, or more efficiently written, or more entertaining. But it's clear that in an effort to give a similar physical value to these different books, the publisher has massaged them into being pretty much the same number of pages. It makes them look pretty on the shelf, I can attest to that. I love when things on my shelf are the same size. But, combined with the other elements of the actual writing I've pointed out, it does in fact explain why
felt so much shorter than
My weird observations aside,
Plague of the Cybermen
is a lovely Doctor Who adventure tale. Without much explanation, The Doctor arrives in a small village in an age before TV or telephones - what exact age is unclear, but a guess puts it in Medieval times, and the locale is... German? Russian? Maybe Prussian. It also isn't clear, but probably not important. The villagers are getting sick, and why? Because ages before, a Cybermen ship crash landed causing all sorts of troubles. It's up to The Doctor to lead the villagers, especially his de facto companion Olga, to learn the true nature of the danger, defeat the Cybermen, and go on with their formerly idyllic lives. There's some sword fighting in there, quite a bit of death frankly - some of it pretty gruesome - and great heroics from The Doctor's favorite species, humanity. Oh, and some surprises that I won't spoil.
The author, Justin Richards, is definitely steeped in Doctor Who-ology, having written numerous books based on the Whoniverse, including the more recent Doctors as well as some novels about past Doctors and even a series about Gallifrey (although once again, no episodes of the program). His experience shows, as he has a clear understanding of who Doctor Who is to the viewing/reading audience, and the structure of Doctor Who stories. What's more, his style should be very friendly to non-fans, as he feeds up details through the eyes of Olga, who has also never heard of The Doctor. On that front, I would suggest this as a pretty good way to introduce people to The Doctor, perhaps more than watching an episode, in that when things start to move quickly, it's easier to reread about them in a book than to rewatch them in an episode (as I've had to do sometimes when introducing The Doctor to non-sci-fi fans. Ok, to girls. When I've introduced The Doctor to girls).
Overall, then, this is a well crafted, engaging story. As with
TDG, PotCM
is light reading. No deep meaning here, no exploring the boundaries of humanity. But it does an excellent job of presenting the adventure we've come to expect from anything with "Doctor Who" in the title.

As we mourn Abrams' macho Star Trek obliteration, it's a good time to revisit that most Star Trek-ian of accomplishments, Voyager, the most despised object of fanboy loathing in the franchise's history.
The destruction of Vulcan, one of the most crucial planets in the "Star Trek" universe, should be at the core of J.J. Abrams' "Trek" movies. It is the single development that most distinguishes the original series from Abrams' reboot, an event so boldly imagined that it marks the filmmakers' new, blank canvas with a hideous dark stain.

The title, "With Great Power: The Stan Lee Story," is a tip off, but if the only Uncle Ben you know is a nattily dressed black gentleman who sells conveniently packaged rice, then Stan Lee wants to invite you to his Marvel universe. This is the world where Uncle Ben adopted his orphaned nephew who would be bitten by a radioactive spider in high school. That sullen, selfish teen would soon find that the bite of karma can be transformational and he becomes a super hero with an attitude: Spider-Man.
San Diego Comic-Con International is a celebration of cartoons, costumes and fictional and real characters. Recent years have brought increasing commercialization. Many of the panels are little more than tantalizing propaganda for upcoming TV programs and movies and the panels bare their wares as brazenly as the whores who used to walk the Gaslamp District before it became a hip place to be. But SDCC is also a venue for introducing and releasing movies that have a link to geek culture and SDCC hosts a Comic-Con International Independent Film Festival.
"The Captains" is available on Netflix, EpixHD.com, Amazon Instant Video, Vudu and DVD. It will screen on HBO Canada March 21.
Stardate 65630.8 (1 March 2012)
What made "Star Trek" the most "durable and profitable franchise" in entertainment history? In his documentary, writer-director-producer William Shatner makes a convincing argument that it was "The Captains" -- they set the tone and they brought the theatricality and Shakespearean linguistic grace to TV.
"The Captains," appeared in October, 2011, in Canada, had one-night screenings here and there across North America, and helped launch EpixHD.com. That all seems in keeping with Shatner's impressive role as a new-media barnstormer. No, he's not making political speeches, but he's on Google+ and Facebook, and he's traveling around North America promoting and preserving what may be his most lasting legacy, his role as Captain James T. Kirk. He's even returned to Broadway in a one-man show covering his career before, during and beyond "Star Trek." (Yes, "returned.")
In Hollywood, people joke about the William Shatner School of Acting. He's corny. He's melodramatic. And he has a sizable ego. But he's really not a bad actor. We forget that before "Star Trek," Shatner seemed destined to become a fine stage actor. He first made the trip to Broadway from his native Canada in 1956 with a small part in "Tamburlaine the Great" in 1956. The production had two Tony nominations. He scored the starring role in "The World of Suzie Wong," which ran for two years. Both he and the female lead won Theatre World Awards for their work. In 1962, he was one of the main performers in "A Shot in the Dark," for which Walter Matthau won a featured actor Tony. All that momentum got sidetracked when he went Hollywood.
LOS ANGELES -- All right, now, we already know how Catherine Hicks felt about that tender little romantic moment in "Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home," the one where she shares a gentle kiss with Adm. James T. Kirk and after he says "Beam me up, Scotty," she leaps into his arms and travels with him to the 23rd century.

Leon Reporter, Leon, Iowa
Thursday, August 4, 1904
EDWARD COFFIN was born in Lysander, Onondago County, New York, in l825. He was married to MARY J. STEWART in l847, and in l854 moved to Polo, Ill., where in l872 he suffered the bereavement in the loss of his faithful and devoted companion.
In l874 he moved to Tama Co., Iowa, and thence to Decatur County in l884. He was the father of five children, three of whom, MRS. J.W. WOMSLEY, of Greenfield, Iowa, MRS. FRANK RIDDLE and JOHN COFFIN, of Decatur, Iowa, are still living and in attendance at the funeral. He died of heart failure at the home of his daughter, MRS. RIDDLE, July 28, l904, aged 79 years, 2 months and 10 days.
MR. COFFIN was a worthy and excellent man, quiet, strictly honest and conscientiously moral. He was a devoted and affectionate husband and a kind, exemplary father.
He never was a member of any church but those who know how honestly and upright he lived have no doubt of his preparation for the future. The funeral services were held at the home and he was buried in the Decatur Cemetery.

Sole Survivor Of Northeast House Fire Dies From Injuries
POSTED: Monday, February 14, 2011 - 4:24pm
UPDATED: Monday, February 14, 2011 - 6:51pm
5th Person Dies From House Fire in January
EL PASO— The sole survivor of a Northeast house fire in January has died.
A nurse had said Luis Manuel Matos, 72, was in stable condition at a Lubbock Burn Center. Matos' wife and three grandchildren were also killed when their home was engulfed in flames on the 10000 block of Wolverine.
Matos was the fifth victim to die from the house fire. His death is being attributed to burns sustained from the fire, and possibly from smoke inhalation.
The El Paso Fire Department's Public Information Officer, John E. Concha, said there have been five confirmed fire-related deaths in the city so far compared to 11.
Firefighters said Monica Matos, 55, and her grandson Damian Jones, 9, died while they were taken to Beaumont Army Medical Center. Two other children, ages 10 and 14, were also killed in the fire.
Neighbor Joseph Marshall heard and saw the deadly fire unfold in front of his eyes.
"My neighbor woke me up and I came out here and saw flames going up really bad. He was trying to get the iron bars off that back window. You could hear the children in there yelling and it took a while to get those things off. As soon as it was off the fireman crawled through the window and started handing the children out through the window," Marshall said in January.
Marshall said the neighborhood will never be the same.
"Those kids brought something special to the neighborhood. Everybody knew them. The grandfather was always willing to lend a hand to anybody, and you can't replace that anymore," he had said.
Fire Investigators have classified the cause of the fire as accidental. The fire started in the interior of the home near the front door..
El Paso Fire Department Spokesman John Concha also said last month that a combination of window bars, furniture, flames and no smoke alarms trapped the family inside.
"Smoke alarms are very important. These are what's going to give you those valuable seconds to get out," Concha said. "Go home tonight and check to see if your smoke alarm is working. Test the button."

Positive: 12 out of 28

Negative: 3 out of 28
This lively little film, a comic take on Shakespeare's tragedy, is really entertaining.
Feb 11, 2011Any film that dares to cast the bat-chewing heavy-metal legend as a gentle, ceramic reindeer named Fawn is okay in my Bard book.
A welcome dose of honest silliness at a time when most family-oriented toons settle for smart-alecky.
Far too much of the film is devoted to eye-rolling pop-culture gags and long montages set to recycled Elton John songs.
The movie is nothing if not anxious to please. There's a big, diverse, celebrity voice cast – Maggie Smith, Hulk Hogan and Dolly Parton as well as Caine and Osbourne.
Feb 10, 2011The script feels workshopped to death yet still hits only a single broad note of irony-drenched whimsy, but the voice-work sparkles and the action-heavy animation clips along fluidly. There's charm in the backyard, but it's still of a garden variety.
Novelty alone does not a good idea make, and in the case of Gnomeo and Juliet, it's rather a disturbing, even fetishy one.

Aug 28, 2012endearing and fun!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Jun 19, 2011This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Let me just say that I absolutely hate Shakespeare and his works, including Romeo and Juliet. This movie however, was the anti- Romeo and Juliet, and that, for me, was a very good thing. Sure, there may have been a bit too many pop culture references (although I loved Hulk Hogan's Terrafirminator commercial, brother!). But in the end, I'm glad some guys decided to give William Shakespeare the finger by making this movie.… Expand
Feb 21, 2011I don't tend to make a habit of going out to see children's animations but I'm pleased I did. I must admit that I was expecting to be bored within 10 minutes but this was no way the case. It is clear that the demographic for the film is a younger audience but it is also made in a way that enables it to be enjoyed by people outside of the demographic too. I for one enjoyed the film and didn't at all think it ruined the Romeo and Juliet story at all. Children of this age will not know the Romeo and Juliet story in as much detail as an older audience would. They'll be watching the film for the film not for an animated adaption of Romeo and Juliet.… Expand
May 31, 2011Another harmless, fun, animated film. Nothing spectacular here, though the decorative backyard pieces are funny to watch in their interactions with each other! The inclusion of a few Elton John pieces are a highlight to the film's score!… Expand
Jan 5, 2012Gnomeo And Juliet features talented voice work and great computer animation, with a few clever jokes and classic Elton John music but way too much inappropriate humor and a just self centered message and story. I gve this movie 52%.… Expand
Aug 4, 2012Let me introduce you to the piece of dog poo they call Gnomeo and Juliet. When I first saw this film, I had low expectations, and they didn't change a single bit. The humor is dry and weak, the stupid garden jokes were too awful and the movie felt like it was 4 seconds long. Long story short, DO NOT SEE THIS FILM!!!… Expand
Mar 3, 2011This is arguably the worst movie that I have ever seen. I absolutely love kids movies but this one was so awful that I couldn't evenremotely enjoy it when I was high. They can refund my ticket but there is no way that I can get back that hour and a half or so of my life. Don't waste your time… Expand

Oak Creek - Firefighters and police responded to a basement fire at a home in the 8500 block of South Parknoll Drive during the early morning hours Tuesday.
The homeowners called police at 3:23 a.m. after they woke up and smelled smoke inside their home, then heard the smoke detector sound a short time later. The couple located their two daughters, ages 8 and 6, and one of their two dogs and exited the residence.
Smoke was seen coming from the basement when emergency personnel arrived. After the Oak Creek Fire Department arrived, it was determined the was fire started by a pilot light in the water heater due to items in the basement.
The fire caused major damage to the water heater and basement. No official damage estimate was available at the time of the report.
No injuries were reported; however, paramedics attended to the children, who complained of slight smoke inhalation. The second dog later was found.
