For Karl Hoffman, it's always been about finding ways to express his ideas.
"We often think of it as the phoenix rising from the ashes," said Gloriæ Dei Artes organist David Chalmers.
Imagine visiting a gallery in a fishing town 60 miles from a major city, and recognizing an artist's name as someone you saw on the PBS program Frontline. Then imagine asking a few questions and discovering that this artist also shows in Dowling-Walsh Gallery in Rockland, ME, where you'll find paintings in inventory by Norman Rockwell, Fairfield Porter and Andrew Wyeth.
Play it again, Sam is an apt phrase about Woody Allen's relationship play penned in the early 1970s. The premise is alluring and the story simple, so the play has been attempted by many theater groups over the last 40 years.

West Coast rap veteran Too Short is not quite out of the dog house just yet, however, he managed to avoid being prosecuted for felony drug possession after an arrest earlier in the week.
According to reports, prosecutors did not feel they had a strong enough case to win in the court of law against Short Dog on the drug possession charge.
We've learned … the L.A. County District Attorney has REJECTED the felony drug case, because cops only found a very small amount of drugs — which they say is meth. Given that Short does not have a felony record, the D.A. decided not to prosecute and sent the case over to the L.A. City Attorney for misdemeanor review. We're told the City Attorney will look at the case … probably next week. FYI … Short insists he was not in possession of drugs, and whatever was found in the back of the cop car was left by the prior arrestee who involuntarily hitched a ride to the pokey. (TMZ)
Shortly after the arrest went down, Short admitted he did not understand the drug possession charge.
Rapper Too Short has no clue what happened during his arrest this morning! While he thought he was arrested for driving under the influence, his booking sheet says otherwise. Following his release from the slammer, the rapper said: "I thought it was a DUI. This says possession … I'm confused, man." Unluckily, the listed felony drug possession charge doesn't mean that Too Short is off the hook for a DUI. Seeing as how he was CLEARLY intoxicated when he was cuffed, it is likely that the cops only booked him on the highest charge and will leave the rest to the D.A.'s office to prosecute. Too sad! It is prettyyy obvious that he has a drug problem, so let's hope he gets the help he needs and isn't just thrown in the slammer! (Perez Hilton)
Details of his unexpected takedown surfaced online early Wednesday (March 20).
Rapper Too Short has just been arrested for DUI … after allegedly attempting to run from police, TMZ has learned. Law enforcement sources tell TMZ, Short — real name Todd Anthony Shaw — was pulled over in L.A. a couple hours ago for some traffic violation … and when cops approached the vehicle, he appeared under the influence. Now here's where it gets weird — when police attempted to administer a breathalyzer test, law enforcement sources tell us Too Short took off … and tripped as he ran down the street. (TMZ)
The rap veteran received DUI and drug possession charges.
Then, after he was apprehended, he reportedly tried to dump narcotics in the back of the police cruiser. Law enforcement sources tell TMZ that the rapper is being booked for DUI and felony narcotics possession. (KTLA)

The biggest ongoing news stories in Inner Southeast Portland for years, and for at least one more year to come, have been the replacement of the Sellwood Bridge, and the construction of the Inner Southeast MAX light rail line. THE BEE will keep you on top of both, until the new bridge is open and the MAX line starts regular service.
In the meantime, we are pleased to see that a couple of needed improvements on major streets in Sellwood and Westmoreland which we have advocated in these pages have just come about.
The first remedies a mistake made by ODOT when they installed new traffic lights several years ago at S.E. 17th and McLoughlin. North-south turn signals were added on 17th – and then ODOT came back and removed the northbound left turn light, leaving motorists hoping to turn left to head downtown on McLoughlin to dodge between oncoming cars when the light was green for those on 17th.
When THE BEE tracked down someone who could explain this outrage at ODOT, we were told with a straight face that the installation of the northbound left turn light had been their mistake in the first place – because of a SMILE-advocated traffic plan which had been implemented previously, which put speed bumps on 17th in Westmoreland, concurrent with the reduction of the speed limit on that street from 30 to 25 MPH.
We pointed out that an effort to moderate speed on a neighborhood street did not mean that SMILE had any intention of trying to impede people from safely LEAVING its neighborhood! The point fell on deaf ears.
Until now! Part of a new upgrade of that intersection, as a component of finishing the MAX light rail line that crosses that intersection on the north side, meant new traffic signals at 17th and McLoughlin. They were activated in October, and lo and behold – they included a northbound left-turn light on 17th. Hallelujah.
We are still interested in seeing how those traveling north across McLoughlin Boulevard to continue on 17th will be regulated to prevent them from finding themselves stuck in the middle of McLoughlin if a light rail train comes through right about then, since the rails cross the northbound lanes just a few feet north of McLoughlin. Hopefully there is some special signaling plan intended to prevent that.
The other success is that a dangerous situation for eastbound left-turning drivers on Tacoma Street at S.E. 17th in Sellwood has been addressed by PDOT, and has greatly improved the safety of the intersection. The many accidents at that intersection over the years caused PDOT to request neighborhood support for making this change, and SMILE, the neighborhood association for Sellwood and Westmoreland, endorsed doing so.
The only remaining impediment to implementing the change concerned parking and access for businesses on the north side of Tacoma Street in the block west of 17th. SMILE Board Member and Transportation Committee Chair Brian Posewitz deserves much credit for moderating the discussion between these businesses and the city, and helping all parties to reach a compromise plan to allow the restriping of the intersection to go forward. Within the last month it was implemented.
Previously there were two lanes eastbound on Tacoma, with those seeking to turn left on 17th stopping at the intersection on a green light hoping for an opportunity to turn, forcing drivers continuing east on Tacoma to swerve around them and blindside any westbound driver trying to turn from the left turn lane there, and making left turns in both directions very difficult.
The restructuring of the intersection with paint has resulted in three eastbound lanes at 17th, with the leftmost one a dedicated left turn lane, the center lane a through lane, and the right lane a right-turn lane onto southbound 17th. Now, the two Tacoma left turn lanes in both directions are aligned, so drivers in both can see if there is anyone coming in the opposite through lane.
It would be nice to have a left turn LIGHT for those seeking to turn left from Tacoma, but the city says it does not have money in the budget for that now. We hope eventually that needed addition will be made, and the intersection will finally be as safe to use as it should always have been, for those seeking to turn left.
Two successes. Yet one glaring transportation need remains unaddressed.
We have for well over a decade kept you abreast of the conundrum involving a light rail station at the north end of Westmoreland. In the mid-1990's, TriMet came to SMILE during the neighborhood-planning process and requested (and got) high density zoning for the northern end of Westmoreland to accommodate those who would use light rail to go to work downtown – because there would be a station there. At the time, the plan was for the station to be on the north side of McLoughlin at about 18th, with a pedestrian bridge across McLoughlin from Westmoreland to access it.
Then the plans for light rail to Inner Southeast were cancelled. THE BEE played its part in getting that transportation option back on the table – only to learn, once it was there, that there was no longer any plan for a station to serve north Westmoreland – and, in fact, nobody at TriMet seemed to remember they had ever said there would be one. (THE BEE was there at the SMILE meeting when TriMet made their zoning request, and we can provide witnesses if necessary!)
THE BEE helped establish a new potential light rail station on the east side of McLoughlin south of Harold, at about Reedway Street, which would allow access to the trains not only from Westmoreland – but, with a pedestrian bridge over the Union Pacific Brooklyn Railyard tracks, easy access for Reed College and the Reed neighborhood to the north of the college. At local light rail open houses, there was enthusiastic support from residents in Westmoreland and Reed for this new station location, and both SMILE and the Reed Neighborhood Association passed resolutions requesting that TriMet place a MAX station there.
That's what got the "Harold Street Station" back on the TriMet MAX map – with an asterisk. They may build a station there, but not for a very long time, they say. The impediment seems to be the cost of building the pedestrian bridge over the railroad tracks – a bridge which, if continued across McLoughlin to descend at Reedway Street in Westmoreland, would allow SMILE residents to walk to cultural events at Reed College, and would allow bicyclists from Reed College and the Reed neighborhood easy access to the Springwater Trail access point on the west side of S.E. Milwaukie Avenue at Mitchell Street.
When the MAX line opens in Inner Southeast next year, north Westmoreland will lose three of the five buses it has long had (including buses 31, 32, and 33, which all provide direct access downtown) – and yet will not have a Harold Street Station to take up the transit slack. That area will become something of a public transit ghetto, with its big loss of service; and most of the Reed neighborhood will still have no easy access to the MAX line, either.
Consequently, THE BEE will continue advocating for the Harold Street Station and the pedestrian bridge. Count on it.
Thanks to the Union Pacific
I would like to pass on a public thank you to Brock Nelson, Local Director of Public Affairs for Union Pacific Railroad. I contacted Brock twice this summer regarding the apparent increase in "backup beeper" [sounds] and truck horn signaling noise emanating from the Brooklyn Train Yard. Brock was very responsive in listening to my concerns, and then working with the yard staff to calibrate the beeper volume and communicate requests to minimize horn noise. These changes were immediately noticeable, and in my opinion led to a much mellower outdoor environment [in Westmoreland]. Thanks Brock!

Double whammy from the city to one who played by the rules
When my Westmoreland rental was subject to a conditional use review in 2011, I paid all the fees required, conducted a good deal of research (other comparable enterprises in my neighborhood, parking surveys, etc), was required to write and submit a proposal, to participate in hearings, and to present a case. ONCE APPROVED, I faithfully collected taxes from my bed and breakfast guests and submitted them to the city on time.
Rental owners who followed good business practices and complied with the rules, who paid thousands of dollars to be approved for business, shouldn't suffer the consequences of those who flew below the radar -- such as with Air BnB. And we who already paid shouldn't incur any new fees.
KATU-TV-2 highlighted my plight on September 30; they asked the city about this apparent injustice. Sandra P. Wood, Code Development Manager of the Bureau of Planning and Sustainability, via her email sent to Commissioner Fritz and me: "This is a situation where you are both correct If an applicant received a Conditional Use approval for a 3-5 bedroom Bed and Breakfast, than their approval is not affected by the current regulations. But if an applicant received a Conditional Use approval for a 1-2 bedroom Bed and Breakfast, which I believe is the case with Ms. Yamada, then the new regulations would supersede that approval."
I urge the city to seriously consider an amendment recognizing previously-approved CU's (with 1 or 2 bedrooms) who have brought money into the economy and followed the law, to wit:
Although the process to open our bed & breakfast was arduous, stressful, and expensive, we felt the results were worth the process. Guests from Australia to the Netherlands and from Maine to Hawaii have stayed here and been thrilled to have a clean homey place to stay in a lovely neighborhood where they can visit family and friends and see the local sites.
Now we're expected to go through more process, and pay additional fees. We feel manipulated, and we don't think this situation is small-business-friendly – except to the Air BnB organization, which just moved its headquarters to Portland, by coincidence.

Be alert at and on 19th Street
I was wondering if THE BEE could bring some attention to the speed limits on Tacoma Street and 19th Avenue in Sellwood [and Westmoreland]. The speed limit has changed to 25mph on Tacoma Street. The speed limit on 19th Avenue is 20mph.
Yet, it does not seem that this has been registered by most if not all drivers. Since 19th Avenue is also part of the Springwater Corridor bike boulevard, there are many people crossing the road there, including many children. With the new apartment building on Tacoma and 17th Avenue, cars are usually parked on both sides on 19th Avenue, leaving a one way street for two way driving, and with limited visibility. Thank you for bringing this to the attention of your readers!
Maria Armstrong via e-mail EDITOR'S NOTE: Before long, there will be flashing pedestrian crossing signals at 19th both on Tacoma Street in Sellwood and on Bybee Boulevard in Westmoreland, to assist those using 19th as a new bicycle boulevard. Be alert for those, too – and, pedestrians and bicyclists, always push the button and wait for the signal before crossing, once they are installed!
Citations needed for drivers not stopping at crosswalks
I live in Sellwood south of Tacoma Street. I often run with my dog, my spouse, or with my son in a stroller. Most of the time when we cross the crosswalks on Tacoma Street between the Sellwood Bridge and 13th Avenue we have to wait for an inordinate amount of time to cross as no one stops, even with us in clear view. This is a recurring issue and traffic laws dictate that vehicles stop for pedestrians at the entrance of crosswalks. Today [October 16] when I indicated with my arm that my intent was to cross – someone even honked at me as they drove by. [Professionally,] I see pedestrians who have been struck by vehicles in this context all too often, and feel that a statement needs to be made about these violations.

More helped in dog rescue
Thank you for including the photo of Barney's Rescue in last month's edition of THE BEE. A number of neighbors were bothered, however, that there was no mention of the real heroes of the day who spent hours in the hot sun cutting through the blackberries. Jana made phone calls and located the family while Tomoko brought her hedge clippers, pruning shears, and helped clear away the thorny blackberry vines. Norwood, a super hero in a cowboy hat, managed to cut a 2 x 10 foot wide tunnel into the hedge and crawled inside to soothe the frantic, whining dog. Norwood stayed with Barney in that dark, narrow cavern for more than an hour, until the family arrived. My apologies to neighbors Jana, Norwood, and Tomoko who worked much of the day to free the entangled dog.

Finds flaws in BEE headlines
Two problems [from the October BEE]: Drivers FLAUNT rules (about the no left turn near bridge). Wrong word. The drivers FLOUT the rules. Look up both please....easily confused.
CYCLIST hit at intersection. I believe it is common usage that the word cyclist refers to a BIcyclist, not a guy on a motorcycle. How about "biker" hit?
But I do continue to REALLY like THE BEE. Thanx for all you do.
Mike Bolduanvia e-mail
EDITOR'S NOTE: Thanks for the education on "flout". We got our BA in English, and this is one we didn't know. Our dictionary agrees with you, though it confirms "flaunt" as an alternate in this usage, "stemming from its confusion with flout". As for the other – it is paradoxical that a motorcyclist might be best referred to as a biker, and a bicyclist as a cyclist. We will brood on that one.
Demolitions and new houses harming Woodstock
We live on a 210'x300' block of modest neat homes, most built in the 1940's, just northwest of Woodstock Park. From the '40's until this spring, our block contained nine residences. By early 2015, there will be twelve homes on this block, as a result of city-mandated infill. On the west side, there is a new one on the backyard of a corner property that overwhelms the existing homes with its 48-foot height at the peak – and a sliver house on the side garden lot of another. The demolition of the highest-value home on the east side of the block will accommodate two new houses, each on a 37.5-foot-wide plot. All, except possibly the sliver house, are expected to have an asking price well above $500,000 in this neighborhood of mostly $250,000 to $350,000 homes. This means that families with ordinary incomes will not be able to live here. We have enjoyed living in our neighborhood for many years, and we know that change is inevitable, and that attrition makes some of that change possible. We are resigned to having less space for the people who will now inhabit this neighborhood, but we would certainly have appreciated being notified of the coming changes early in the process, and having more attention paid to the design of the new homes, including neighborhood input. New construction should always fit into, not detract from, the character of any area. We realize that this infill will bring jobs and more funds to the City, but to the detriment of the neighborhood, which has been attracting both young families and older people with its modest charm, desirable location, and greater affordability. We hope that hearing about our block's experiences will alert many more neighborhoods to what could happen to them. And, be aware that blocks platted in 25-foot increments are particularly vulnerable for sliver houses. With the changes already set for our block, we will no longer be happy with the appearance of our neighborhood. Dianne Burton S.E. 47th Avenue
"Repair Café" to return to Southeast
I wanted to thank David Ashton [October BEE] for taking the time to report on the "free fixes" at the "Repair Cafe" so graciously hosted by the folks at Homestead Supply on September 14th. It was a gorgeous day, and the people attending were having a great time as were those doing the fixing. With five sewing machines set up, two bike repair stations, and an assortment of folks doing small appliance and tool repair most people got helped. I was totally impressed with one repairman that came with his son from Newberg to do repair work, and spent over two hours working on an antique fan. I am not sure he got it totally fixed, but I think the owner of the fan was impressed with the attempted fix, and certainly he knows his fan on a whole new personal level now.
But the big news is that if you missed the "Repair Cafe" on September 14th, there is another one coming soon to Inner Southeast – at St. David of Wales Church, 2800 S.E. Harrison Street. It is being co-sponsored by the Southeast Portland Tool Library, St. David of Wales Church, and of course the RepairPDX folks. You can sign up for this event at the RepairPDX website: http://www.repairpdx.org, or by e-mail to: email@example.com. We hope to see you there!

Thanks for food drive success
Moreland Presbyterian Church would like to thank the neighborhood for their support of our September Food Drive. On September 21, families from the church canvassed our immediate neighbors, while other neighbors dropped off food donations to the church during the week. We were able to deliver 750 lbs. of food to FISH Emergency Services, a local organization that provides emergency food boxes to people in need from North, Northeast and Southeast Portland. Thanks neighbors for making the food drive a success!

And just a couple more…
In my letter printed in the last BEE, I inadvertently left out volunteers who helped with this summer's Sundae in the Park, and Iwould like to remedy that and recognize them. The children's Bubble-making activity area has been supervised by Jeffrey and Sebastian Kolwitz for many years, and Kate Loggan has patiently instructed family members in the fine art of Croquet, summer after summer! This year the Oregon Psychological Association's Public Education Committee hosted an informational table for the first time. They tell me they will be back! If I have forgotten anyone else, please accept my apologies. Nancy WalshChair, SMILE Sundae in the Park Committee
Friends of Trees celebrates…with more trees
To celebrate its 25th anniversary, Friends of Trees is offering a special deal this year: Street trees for just $25, and that includes inspection, permits, delivery of a healthy young tree, and help planting the tree in the strip between the sidewalk and the street. These trees are normally $35-75, so this is a great opportunity for Oregonians. You can sign up for a tree online at: http://www.friendsoftrees.org – or call 503/282-8846. On December 13. crews will be planting in six Southeast neighborhoods: Brooklyn, Brentwood-Darlington, Eastmoreland, Mt. Scott-Arleta, Sellwood-Westmoreland, and Woodstock. If you live in one of these neighborhoods, this is a chance to meet your neighbors while making the neighborhood a better place to live. The deadline for ordering trees is November 13, and then the trees will be planted by volunteer crews a month later, on December 13. Volunteers are needed for many different roles and different places. We hope to see you there.

Michael makes one stop in BEE Country this year
St. Philip Neri Church will again be kicking off the Christmas season on December 1 at 7:00 pm with the annual Michael Allen Harrison benefit concert, featuring special guest Julianne Johnson. This year, this will be the only Michael Allen Harrison concert in the area served by THE BEE.
It may come as a surprise, but St. Philip Neri Catholic Church turns out to be one of Portland's best venues for lively acoustics. We were given background information on our acoustics recently, by acoustics consultant, Russ Altermatt. In a published article in the Oregonian, there was a photo of the church interior, with the headline, "The pews may be unpadded, but the acoustics in St. Philip Neri Church are divine".
We want everyone to join us for this heartwarming Holiday concert. A reception follows with traditional homemade cookies. The address is 2408 S.E. 16th Avenue at Division Street, and there's plenty of free parking. Tickets are $15 regular admission, $25 preferred seating. For tickets, call the church office 503/231-4955.

Thanks from Moreland Farmers Market…and, Manager needed!
I want to thank all the neighbors who helped make the Moreland Farmers Market's 9th season a great success! We are lucky to have a supportive group of sponsors and partners, a dedicated crew of volunteers and Board members, and of course loyal customers who came out week after week in support of our hard-working vendors. Thanks to all of you who help make the market a vibrant community gathering spot!
I have been at the helm of the market for three years, and it has been great getting to know many of you. Wednesdays have become for me a special day of the week where the community truly comes together, and I feel honored to have been part of this. I will be stepping down from my position this winter, and the market will be searching for a new Manager for the 2015 season. If you love local food, are passionate about community, and want to be involved in a really great operation that makes a difference, I would encourage you to apply for the position (or pass this along to someone who might be a good candidate). Additional information can be found online, at our website: http://www.morelandfarmersmarket.org – or you can e-mail your resume/cover letter to: firstname.lastname@example.com.
Lastly, our market will be starting up again in May 2015. Have a great winter, and you can always check for updates on our website. See you around the neighborhood!

From the carpet at the Brit Awards last night (England's version of the Grammys), these guys from One Direction show three examples of pattern and how to wear them. The fact they were styled as a collective group supports our point that you can take a trend and make it uniquely yours. There's definitely a theme, but each look still appears distinct from the other. Take it all in. If a shirt covered from seam to seam with a Rorschach like print is too much, try a bandana with a simpler motif. If not those, then there's always your collection of tees you picked up at Bonnaroo and Lalapalooza every summer to turn to—think outside the box by taking what you already have on hand and wearing it in a new way. What's key with all three looks is a tailored black jacket, it's the one piece you should go out an buy if you haven't done so already—the structure shows you care about your appearance and hides any "hookah coal burns" you acquired on those concert tees.

How replace clutch slave and master cylinders on 1997 Saturn Station Wagon?
Answer its accually easy, from inside the car, you need to squeeze under the dashboard. at the top of your clutch pedal there is a small metal clip holding the r…od for the clutch master cylinder. use a small flat blade screw driver to lift the tab on the clip, and slide it off. push the rod of the master cylinder off the clutch pedal and let the clutch pedal fall to the floor. from under the hood, reach down and grab the clutch master cylinder and twist to the left i believe... cant remember. the unit is held in just like a headlight bulb, just twist and pull. the slave clylinder is held in by two 13mm nuts at the transmission. remove the nuts, and same procedure, twist and pull. becarefull pulling the slave out because the rod that opperates the clutch fork can sometimes fall off and land inside the transmission.... not good. once you have it off, pull the entire assembly out of the vehicle. the clutch system must be replaced as an entire unit since there is no bleading procedure for saturn. the units came from the factory pre assembled, and pre-bleed.

NO PUMPING! 12) You have now bled the Master Cylinder and the hydraulic line. YOU ARE NOT DONE YET!!!!! We must now bleed the Slave cylinder. (This is what the manual doesn't tell you) 13) With no further action to be done with the clutch pedal, you can no remove the "helper" from the drivers seat and have him (her/it) help you do the following. 14) After topping off the Master Cylinder, completely remove the bleed screw from the slave cylinder. 15) Have the "helper" stand at the ready with the bleed screw and the appropriate wrench for installing the bleed screw. 16) PROTECT YOUR EYES! 17) With the bleed screw removed. With both hands grab the push rod coming out of the slave cylinder and push it into the slave cylinder as far as it will go AND HOLD it in. 18) Your "helper" will now install and tighten the bleed screw while you hold the plunger in. 19) When bleed screw is tight release the rod and as it comes out guide it into the proper position on the clutch arm. 20) Top off the Reservoir and the job is complete.

I want to have something special waiting for my family
Hi, everyone!
Not sure if this is the right forum, but it's worth a shot. My family and I will be staying at the Swan & Dolphin next month. This is our first trip to WDW as a family and I want to have something special in the room when we arrive. Does anyone know who I can contact to purchase something or things to kick off the vacation with a smile? I appreciate all of your help and ideas in advance.
But they probably won't be able to get anything into your room on day 1 but rather your first full day at WDW. We're doing the Mickey Mouse and Pals in-room birthday celebration and I was told by a CM that the room will be decorated on the evening (you've got options for timing) of our first full day at WDW.
that much is true - they won't put anything in a room until after the guest has checked in.
Also, you may have to go through swan/dolphin directly. Not sure if they decorate s/d
S&D are in their delivery route.
i have
always used memoriesbybetsy. Just do a search.. she does an amazing job!
Thank you, all, for you help! I checked out disneyflorist.com and saw some cool things. It's just a matter of picking the best one. Thanks, again!

To mark IDC Herzliya's 20th anniversary, we spent a day following Prof. Uriel Reichman, IDC's founder and president, and Jonathan Davis, VP for External Relations, around its delightful campus.
It is always sad to see the reactions about freeing Pollard. He might be free today when you read this, but as I write he is still locked up. The American president seems to feel that since he has someone of ours (Pollard) and Israel wants him freed, Israel should free 400 or more Arab murderers and stop building in Judea and Samaria in return. Excuse me, please, for not understanding. I am sure that everyone in the United States already realizes that anyone who was caught spying against the U.S. for an enemy power would be out of jail after 10 or 20 years.
What is special about Jonathan Pollard? He did spy for another government, but I guess that it is far worse because he spied for an American ally rather than spying for an enemy. It is true that the information he passed was important to that American ally (Israel) and that the information was being withheld from Israel for some unknown reason, despite the agreements to share between allies. I guess that spying for a friendly government is worse than spying for an enemy government and gathering information useful against American interests. Pollard is a Jew who was helping Israel. Whoops, that may be much worse than being a Christian or a Muslim spying against America.
I do not know if Pollard did what he did for altruistic reasons or if he did it for money or if, as some news sources love to claim, he was unstable all along. Pollard was a civilian working for U.S. Navy intelligence. A family friend seems to have set him up with an Israeli handler and Pollard volunteered to spy.
Today it seems immaterial what secrets he passed along, but from reports it was related to artillery developments in several Arab countries. It was reported that the Israelis continued to ask for secrets directly related to their security which included information about Arab and Pakistani nuclear secrets and capabilities of the Soviet weapons in Arab hands, which the U.S. should have shared with its ally, Israel!
I do not believe that Pollard was innocent or that he should receive a commendation for his acts. America withheld data from Israel because it felt that it was in the best interest of the United States to do so, even if I disagree. There are reports that Pollard did it for the money and that he handed over "suitcases of secrets" until his arrest in November 1985. No citizen should be allowed to make that kind of decision, even if he wasn't doing it for the money. How would we react if a Muslim American would steal United States secrets about Israel and turn them over to Saudi Arabia, an American ally?
But enough is enough. Many spies who spied for Russia, an enemy of the U.S., have been released after serving fewer years in prison. David Henry Barnett was a CIA officer convicted of espionage, who admitted that he had sold CIA secrets to the Soviets. He was sentenced to 18 years' imprisonment and was paroled in 1990 after serving only ten years.
Harold Nicholson was convicted of selling U.S. intelligence to Russia and was sentenced to 23 years, 7 months of imprisonment in 1997. Prosecutors believed that he had sold the identities of all the U.S. intelligence officers stationed in Russia, as well as the identities of his trainees at the CIA school.
William Kampiles, a CIA officer, was charged with espionage, and convicted. His prison sentence was reduced to 19 years, and he was released in 1996, after serving 18 years.
Richard Miller was convicted of espionage in 1991 and sentenced to 20 years. Miller was released after 13 years. Miller was alleged to have provided classified documents, including an FBI counterintelligence manual.
Andrew Daulton Lee delivered classified documents detailing how to decrypt secure U.S. government message traffic and detailed specifications of the latest U.S. spy satellites to Russia. Lee would often also use these trips as an opportunity to engage in drug deals when not working on espionage. Lee would sell the same intelligence reports to China. In 1976 Lee was sentenced to life in prison and was released on parole in 1998, after 22 years. Lee's heavy sentence for the same offense was likely due to his prior criminal record and admitted drug trafficking.
Aldrich Ames was similarly sentenced to life in prison — but his spying led to the death of at least 10 Soviet intelligence officers. John Walker Lindh, an American who joined the Taliban fighters in Afghanistan, received a 20-year sentence.
Pollard reportedly offered material to other American allies: South Africa, Argentina, Taiwan and Pakistan. He spied for an ally, not an enemy. (This does not excuse criminal conduct, but it does seem a mitigating factor, certainly so far down the road.)
The U.S. intelligence community has not forgotten or forgiven Pollard for his actions. Any move to release him will surely spark a furious internal reaction.

Release Pollard. Execute traitors and other terrorists!
HELLO, Pollard is a traitor! Just because he was spying for Israel and that he is Jewish does not negate that he is a traitor!
Time he was freed
US and the Arabs are demanding release of terrorists, murderess with blood on their hand! Pollard did not kill anyone , served his time in jail longer than any traitor of the US!! That is Hippocratic !!
They use him to blackmailing Israel! they done that during Clinton, he promised to release him if Israel will sign a deal with Arafat, Israel did, last minute change of heart they did not !! it is time to free Pollard !!!!!!!!!
Theo, to be a traitor one has to give aid to the enemy in war. Pollard did neither.
…this shows American impartiality…
no one understands , he is a Jew as well as a spy..He needs to be REALEASED FOR TIME SERVED!! ENOUGH!
And some have been shot. To use a moral equivalence that others have received lighter sentences does not hold water!
Sorry Kay, he took an oath to protect the information he was entrusted with. He committed treasonous act even though he was spying for an friendly state!
agree but Pollard is a Jew that is why they keep him longer in jail
agree but Pollard is a Jew that is why they keep him longer in jail
I wish that all of the Jews who support the Democratic Party and President Obama by donating hundreds of millions of dollars to the Democratic War Chest realize that the USA is a very anti semitic country. Basically, the White House and this President hates the Jews and the Jewish People regardless of where they live. This is the reason why Pollard is still in prison, and will probably never be released, unless he is dead.
Pollard is a hero. In wake of the Holocaust any and all actions is mandated according to Halacha! No matter how "benevolent" a diaspora Government be, Chazal invoked ESAV SONESH ES YAAKOV! Some US administrationdshave been v anti-Semitic! Among them Ulyisiss Grant, FDR(refusing to bomb rail roads to Concentration camps nor letting Jews into the USA nor put pressure on England to discard the White Paper that restricted Jews to flee to the Land of Israel by during Holocaust!!! Watch Thursday 12:00 Noon go to mnn.org New York Time number 4 Judaism click beneath it Watch now!
Lets not forget past and present anti-Semitic administrations as Ulylsis Grant,FDR(not allowing Jews into USA,refusing to bomb rail tracks to concentrations and failed to pressure England to discard its White Paper restricting Jews fleeing To Eretz Yisroel prior durin and after the holocaust..
Nixon made anti-Semitic remarks. Jimmy Carter is openly anti-Semitic to this day! Reagan visited nazi cemetery Bitsburg with the corps of gestapo/ss nazis and when there was an uproar he responded"AW SHUCKS IT WAS A LONG TIME AGO"! In addition, he condemned Israel for bombing Iraq nuclear site! Bush I and to a lesser degree Bush II were anti-Semitic. Te most anti-Semitic President since carter is Obama! It's the first time in American history a Black president is openly anti-Semitic. The black congressional faction signed fealty to Farahkhan-trashcan! Obama administration firs in history is inter racial, inter ethnic inter religious and gender inclusive anti-Semitic! In this post holocaust era we are obligated to take any actions to save Jewish lives. REMEMBER Chazal-sages, declared Esav Soneh Es Yaakov-gentiles hate Jews!
Pollard shoul stay in jail as traitor not only to US also to Israel, he did so much damage to Israel.
He must be just about eligible for having served his sentence, though I do believe it was rather harsh, and America if it was a christian country could have shown compassion. the man admitted his error.
The NY Sun has an excellent editorial on this subject.
First, Pollard is no more a "hero" than Julius and Ethel Rosenberg were heroic; both betrayed their countries. The major difference is that the Rosenbergs weren't doing this for money. Israel wasn't an enemy, but neither was the USSR; we weren't at war with either, and in fact the Soviet Union had been a strong ally up until a couple years before the Rosenbergs' betrayal.
Whether Pollard has done enough time, or whether he merits some form of compassionate release due to illness is one issue. But the idea that he should be traded for Palestinian terrorists is beyond stupid; some of those terrorists will undoubedly murder again, meaning there would be blood on both American and Israeli hands.

The Drama Mamas are not an ordinary theater troupe.

It really is time for painful sacrifices for peace. No one wants his children, grandchildren and great grandchildren to suffer the pangs of war and strife. It is time to end the strife and make peace in the Middle East.
Israel is a country that understands security concerns. Many civil rights have been sacrificed in the name of security and Israelis are used to being checked every time they enter a shopping center, a large store or any public building. Americans recently learned that they, too, are subject to many checks on their most private activities.
The Israeli Parliament is usually controlled by a coalition of different political parties because no one party receives enough votes to have a majority. Unlike in the U.S., where there are two major political parties and one of the two political parties commands a majority of the seats in the Senate and/or in the House, in Israel the government is composed of many, many small political parties, each pushing its own agenda.

David Warner: Australia batsman suspended until first Ashes Test
Australia batsman David Warner has been suspended until the first Ashes Test match for an alleged attack on England batsman Joe Root in a bar.
Warner, 26, was also fined £7,000 (AU $11,500) after the incident, which took place in Birmingham on Sunday morning.
"A kid from the back blocks with a strong personality, Warner is outgoing, likes talking to people and always has an opinion. He is popular with his team-mates and respected in the dressing room. He has that lively and nocturnal side to his personality. But he is 26 now, and off the field he needs to change."
He will now miss the remainder of his country's Champions Trophy campaign.
Warner will also be absent for tour matches against Somerset and Worcestershire, but can play in the first Ashes Test on 10 July.
England and Australia players were in the Walkabout pub in the early hours of Sunday when opening batsman Warner is alleged to have struck England batsman Root.
BBC Radio 5 live's Pat Murphy said: "I believe it happened around 02:00 (BST) at the bar in the centre of Birmingham.
"There was a private VIP area and some of the Australia players were in there. The three England players, Joe Root, Stuart Broad and Chris Woakes, were some way away and were larking around - wearing silly wigs and that.
"I understand Warner took umbrage and went over to Root and glanced him on the chin.
"Broad put his arm around Root as soon as it happened and said 'time to go back to the hotel' and I am also told that they were not worse for wear."
Warner, who has played in 19 Test matches for his country, was dropped for Australia's Champions Trophy game against New Zealand on Wednesday as a punishment.
He could have been sent home from the tour after pleading guilty to a charge of "unbecoming behaviour".
His suspension means he will not be allowed to play until the five-Test Ashes series begins at Trent Bridge.
But Warner is in a poor run of form, with seven single-figure scores in his last nine innings while playing for Delhi Daredevils in the Indian Premier League and one-day internationals for Australia.
Cricket Australia's behaviour commissioner, The Hon Justice Gordon Lewis, heard the disciplinary case in Melbourne via a teleconference.
In a statement, the England and Wales Cricket Board cleared their players of any blame.
"Following a full investigation, the England team management has concluded that the England player was in no way responsible for, nor retaliated to, the attack," said the ECB statement.
England bowler Broad told Sky Sports: "We were within our rights to be out, and we did nothing wrong. We are obviously on show as England cricketers and we need to be aware of that."
This incident is not the first time Warner has been in trouble with Cricket Australia and last month he was fined £3,700 for a foul-mouthed Twitter exchange with two Australian journalists.

Just read Aggers' take on the matter:
'...but you do all you can to remove yourself from awkward situations and being in a bar at two o'clock in the morning is not a good place for an England cricketer to be'
Sorry Aggers, being in a bar isn't illegal- punching someone is. Warner is a thug and a petty criminal. He should be sent back to Australia with a criminal record.

It is unbelievable!! Because he is, apparently, a future Aussie captain (Heaven help us all) he gets away with a pathetic ban. He should be sent home, now. But they won't because winning The Ashes is more important han behaving decently. Reap the wind, Aussies. it'll come back to bite you.

One of the headlines says it was a "Root Attack".
And there was I thinking it was only a punch. Still, if you wear wigs around drunk men far away from home the boundaries can become blurred....
Neither Mystery Morrison nor Ewen Chatfield was ever involved in such a thing ( I doubt that they could even formulate the concept ) - best left to The Mother Country and the West Islanders.

A two match ban for hitting an opponent in a bar??? Lets remember that a number of Austrailians were dropped only a few weeks ago for not doing their homework. He shouldn't play again this summer. I for one dont want this ashes series spoilt by being overshadowed by some mindless thug. What an unpleasent man this Warner idiot really is.

if we jailed every drunk yob who chinned someone in a bar , we would need a jail the size of dartmoor. the kids a thug and a stronger team would have sent him packing 5 minutes after the event. but lets face it this is about us englishmen hating those gobby ausies, long may it be so.

Oh you fools this has nothing to do with Warner and his criminal offense, and if it were any one of us oh yes we would be in jail. This is all about BBCsport stringing us along for a good old irrelevant argument. Fact is Aussies and Pohms actually get on really well, but that doesn't suit the powers that be.They make no money from that. So push an otherwise dead story and here you have it suckers.

Watched the Warner apology...fair play lets move on, storm in a teacup etc. I know I'll be vilified, but I'm glad that Cricket is still a real man's sport and not so totally professional and bland. If Joe Root and Warner can move on then so should we. To the Aussie who said that gentlemen don't play cricket anymore In think they do...gentlemen forgive and forget.

Delaney Flanagan: Memories at the graveyard
Up upon the dark and gloomy graveyard
People start to weep as the memories flood back
Why they are here, the importance, the faith and love all hidden behind this day
I remember him picking me up, hugging me, showing me his love and care
But then there is the truth, our loved ones have fallen, therefore their time is done
They have worked hard
We cry for
Sacrifice, Bravery, Love
A tear trickles down my face as I remember this somewhat wonderful day
We know they are in a better place
This is why we try to create smiles for the ones we terribly miss
The signal of Summer has come now
Memorial day for those soldiers who saved the day

Age: 21
Queens, NY
Many of my peers look at my business success and think it was some kind of wizardry that got me to where I am now. It's true that I'm 21 years old, have a thriving fashion jewelry business, a website (struggling), accounts with boutiques, and my products in magazines like Teen Vogue. But my success did not come overnight.
I began with a table in the basement of a church in Queens, NY where I live. Then I added one more church. At the holidays I tried to be at a church flea market on every Saturday and Sunday from Thanksgiving to December 25th. Most times my mother came with me because she wanted to look out for me. I was handling a lot but I was still only 15 and dealing mostly with adults.
It was a lot of hard work. Sometimes the event was not well publicized and the only customers I had were the people who wandered in after a church mass. But I stuck with it. I learned to give change, make m

CAMBRIDGE — Jim Mallard stepped out from behind his desk on Wednesday morning and lined up an imaginary putt as he pondered a politically charged question.
What does Hespeler have in common with Kitchener?
"Nothing," the Queen Street business owner answered, putter in hand.
Mallard — his monument and tombstone business is a 26-year fixture in Hespeler — sees no sense in a riding boundary commission's plan to make Hespeler part of a new South Kitchener federal riding.
Take Hespeler out of the Cambridge riding. Pin it to the bottom of Kitchener. That way, Cambridge slims down from a fat 126,000 riding to a workable 112,000.
Population-growth problem solved. Everybody happy?
"I think it's asinine," Mallard said.
The commission says many people in Hespeler work in Kitchener. That's true. But many people in Hespeler also work in Guelph. And Milton. And Toronto. And Cambridge.
Hespeler's federal voice, however weak it is now, will be muted further, Mallard fears. He expects Kitchener to totally dominate the new riding's agenda.
"If you join Kitchener, you'll find it would get even worse," Mallard said.
Hespeler, 40 years after amalgamation forced the community into an alliance with Galt and Preston under the Cambridge banner, still feels like it is easily picked on.
In November, the commission's plan was to tag North Dumfries Township onto South Kitchener. Township Mayor Rob Deutschmann complained and suggested north-of-the-401 Hespeler would be a better fit to partner with Kitchener.
The townships — Wilmot, Woolwich and Wellesley — yelped at commission suggestions they be dispersed to ridings beyond the boundaries of Waterloo Region. They got to stay.
Et voila! The little village of Hespeler is the community pushed north into a new riding.
"Right now, the mayor of Cambridge resides in Hespeler," Mallard pointed out.
There's not much anybody can do about it.
Craig likes that Waterloo Region as a whole gets a fifth seat in Ottawa.
But Craig is a mayor who has touted a sense of unity in his city as Cambridge turns 40. We're all Cambridge-first brethren now, not the forever-squabbling siblings of Galt, Preston and Hespeler.
Well, the commission just stuck a knife into the myth of Cambridge unity, carving off Hespeler and scotch-taping it onto the southern backside of Kitchener.
"I realize all that," Craig said. "You have to accept what they've done."
Don't dwell on the negative, Craig advises.
"I may disagree with the fact they've lopped Hespeler off from Cambridge," he said. "But I have to see the positive side that the region and Cambridge are getting an extra seat, or half-seat if you want to look at it that way."
So there's not a lot of love for the change, just a shrug and what-can-we-do acceptance.
Cambridge-North Dumfries MP Gary Goodyear, unavailable by phone, was not a fountain of enthusiasm in a statement sent to The Record on Wednesday.
"The new proposition uses a highway to divide a city of Cambridge and removes the vital area of Hespeler," Goodyear said. "I am disappointed with this proposal."
MPs have a month to file objections to the proposed boundary changes, which would see Ontario get 15 new ridings in time for the next federal election in 2015.
In total, 30 new seats would be added to the House of Commons now that the boundaries review, done nationwide every 10 years, is complete. Provincial ridings are unaffected.
One of those new federal seats will be South Kitchener-Hespeler, which is perplexing to Hespeler residents. Mallard says you get one of five answers when you ask locals about what riding Hespeler should be in:
Stick with Cambridge. Join Guelph. Hook up with Kitchener. Go it alone.
And the final response he gets? "I don't know."
Now, it appears the decision has been made for them.

Don't Ignore the Unexpected Costs of Moving in Retirement
It can be an enticing thought to consider living in a sunny locale during the frigid winter months. When you consider states like Texas or Florida that boast no state income taxes (in addition to some great winter weather), the impulse to purchase a new home for retirement can be overwhelming. However, simply looking at a state's income tax rates doesn't paint a complete picture of the potential costs of moving.

Zags women victorious

SANTA CLARA, Calif. — Taelor Karr hit six three-pointers and scored 27 points as the Gonzaga women beat Santa Clara 70-55 Thursday in a West Coast Conference game.
The guard had 13 of her points in the opening 20 minutes to help Gonzaga to a 39-27 advantage and notched her final 14 points in the second to tie her career high.
The victory helped the Zags (23-5, 13-1) capture at least a share of their ninth straight WCC regular-season title.
Haiden Palmer scored 14 points for the Bulldogs and Sunny Greinacher had 10.
Santa Clara (13-13, 5-8) was led by Ruta Zurauskyte with 19 points and 11 rebounds. Meagan Fulps, who drained four three-pointers, finished with 15 points.
Duke men prevail
BLACKSBURG, Va. — Seth Curry made the most of his last chance to play in an arena his father once ruled.
The son of Dell Curry, Virginia Tech's second all-time scorer, scored 19 of his 22 points in the first half as No. 6 Duke opened a 20-point lead and sent Virginia Tech to its ninth consecutive loss, 88-56.
"I just wanted to come out tonight and play well," Curry said. "The first two times I played terrible."
He took care of that in short order, hitting three of his five three-pointers before the game was seven minutes old.
Curry finished 6 for 14 from the field overall, but missed only once in six tries from behind the arc. Duke shot 53.6 percent for the game (30 of 56) and was 12 for 17 on three-pointers.
Rasheed Sulaimon added 17 points and Mason Plumlee had 13 points, 12 rebounds, five assists and three blocks.
The Blue Devils (23-3, 10-3 Atlantic Coast) moved coach Mike Krzyzewski into sole possession of third place on the career list for victories at one school with 877.
He was tied with Adolph Rupp of Kentucky and is now two behind North Carolina's Dean Smith. Syracuse's Jim Boeheim leads with 910 victories.
Erick Green, the nation's leading scorer with a 25.3 average coming in, led the Hokies (11-15, 2-11) with 22 points. C.J. Barksdale had a career-best 14 points.

Complaints against Texas power companies rising
Complaints against power companies rose in 2014, following four straight years of decline, according to a report by the ratepayers group Texas Coalition for Affordable Power.
The report released Wednesday found in fiscal year 2014 Texas consumers filed more than 7,600 complaints with Texas Public Utility Commission, a 7 percent increase from 2013.
While almost half the complaints involved billing disputes, the largest increase came in meter related complaints. Almost all homes and businesses in Texas have now been outfitted with so-called smart meters, which relay usage data electronically to utilities.
But the report indicates customer dissatisfaction is still a long ways from a decade ago when Texas' electricity market was first deregulated. In 2003 the PUC recorded more than 17,000 complaints against power companies.
And while 2014 marked the first increase in complaints in five years, the study's authors pointed out 2014 was the second lowest year since deregulation in 2002.
"Complaints quadrupled with the transition to deregulation and have never returned to pre-deregulation levels, the analysis shows. Population growth and the increased use of the Internet to facilitate the complaint process can explain some of the overall increase during the deregulation years — but probably not all of it," the study reads.

No-snow winter puts Finnish 'snow-how' on icetout Tout
To promote a security in order to attract buyers.
To foster interest in a particular company or security. For example, a broker might tout a security to a client in the hope that the client will purchase the security. the season's must-have gifts as shoppers bustle through packed stores, yet something is amiss: there's no snow.
The absence of white stuff has not only left Christmas revellers gloomy, it has affected businesses ranging from ski resorts to retailers and of course, snow removal companies.
The situation is in stark contrast to last year's heavy snowfalls at this time of year, when Finns showed off their "snow-how" to the grid-locked continent, including state-of-the-art snow removal and special motorist support teams.
But that was then. Now, Helsinki is experiencing uncharacteristically un·char·ac·ter·is·tic
Unusual or atypical: an uncharacteristic display of anger.
un mild December temperatures, and only light dustings of snow have come and gone.
"At the beginning of December it was on average six degrees warmer than is usual for this time of year," meteorologist Pauli Jokinen told AFP (1) (AppleTalk Filing Protocol) The file sharing protocol used in an AppleTalk network. In order for non-Apple networks to access data in an AppleShare server, their protocols must translate into the AFP language. See file sharing protocol. .
He said the snow's no-show in the south of the country this year was partly due to natural variations, but also a footprint of global warming global warming, the gradual increase of the temperature of the earth's lower atmosphere as a result of the increase in greenhouse gases since the Industrial Revolution. .
"You can't put a single season down to climate change, but we have seen that climate change has lifted the baseline temperatures," he explained.
The meteorologist confirmed what many Finns, especially in the milder, southern parts of the country, already fear.
"Our best guess is that in many parts of southern and western Finland it will be a black Christmas," Jokinen declared.
After last year's excesses, this year's lack of snow has stonewalled many businesses.
The balmy autumn forced the cancellation of two major skiing events in Levi, Finland's northern nerve centre for competitive and recreational winter sports winter sports: see bobsledding; curling; hockey, ice; ice dancing; ice skating; skiing; snowshoes; tobogganing. .
"The World Cup race and the European Cup had to be cancelled because of the lack of snow. These are very big events for the area," explained Tarja Nikkanen, marketing manager for Levi Ski Resort.
Nikkanen pointed out though, that with about 25 centimetres (10 inches) of snow on the ground and accommodation booked months in advance, the Christmas season still looks promising for tourists seeking a picture-perfect winter wonderland Wonderland

However she noted that the ski slopes tell a different story.
"We have the biggest snow-making equipment in Finland, but we're not able to use it because the temperatures are not low enough to keep the snow," she added.
During the dark winter months, when the Finnish sun sets in the mid-afternoon, residents often long for the light-reflecting quality of snow to relieve the gloom.
In northern climes like this, some people are susceptible to Seasonal Affective Disorder seasonal affective disorder (SAD), recurrent fall or winter depression characterized by excessive sleeping, social withdrawal, depression, overeating, and pronounced weight gain. , a condition marked by bouts of depression which some research has linked to a lack of sunlight.
This year, the absence of snow, supplanted by heavy rains, has cast its shadow over the retail business as well, said Jaana Kurjenoja of the Finnish Trade Association.
In a recent survey, 42 percent of the association's retailers said their businesses were suffering as a result of the weather conditions.
"Usually warm clothes are popular at Christmas time, but they're not selling this year," Kurjenoja declared.
"Skiing and slalom slalom

The course is carefully designed to test the skier's skill, timing, and judgment. equipment have also suffered and sports retailers say they haven't been able to sell their winter goods," she added.
But one retailer's gloom is another's glee.
Some merchants who lost out during last winter's heavy snows are experiencing windfalls this year, Kurjenoja noted.
"During the last two winters the electronics retailers suffered because people were concerned about insufficient parking (in the snow-bound city) and how to get heavy equipment home," she explained.
"This year electronics sales are up," the trade tracker added.
While snow lovers and weather-dependent businesses look to the skies for salvation, officials in the city of Helsinki continue their winter preparations just in case.
"There's always a possibility that big changes could come ... there could be lots of snow in January and February, Jokinen said.
"All hope is definitely not lost," he added.

Warriors' Jarrett Jack fined $25,000 by NBA
- Updated: April 15, 2013
The NBA has fined Golden State Warriors guard Jarrett Jack $25,000 for voicing his frustrations over foul calls in Golden State's loss to the Los Angeles Lakers.
Though Jack looked upset with several calls made by the referees throughout the game, the league did not specifically cite an incident that led to the fine. He showed his frustration with the refs when he was bumped to the ground while reaching for a loose ball but no whistle was blown.
The 29-year-old guard was also seen voicing his opinions to an official about the game after the conclusion of the 118-116 loss to the Lakers.
The Lakers shot 50 free throws in the game on 33 fouls by the Warriors. Golden State shot 16 free throws on 17 fouls. The Warriors gave up a nine-point lead in the fourth quarter and had a clean look at the basket for the last shot of the game, but ultimately ended with a drama-filled loss.
Jack finished the game with six points, eight rebounds and five assists.

Hi. My name is LuminionObsession, as I am obsessed with luminion after i found a glitched one that was unbeatable-however, it messed up my console and rendered the game unusable.. Convinced that this was luminions's original form, i went in search of one. This is my life story. Since then, I have devoted my time to glitches and glitch pokemon. Thank you for viewing this page.
