Dokken are a melodic metal band, hailing from the LA scene in California, USA. Don Dokken started the band as early as 1978, and had their first single out the following year. The group accumulated numerous charting singles and has sold more than 10 million albums worldwide.
Don Dokken - Lead Vocals, Guitar
George Lynch - Lead Guitar
Juan Croucier - Bass, Vocals
Mick Brown - Drum
Track 10 was recorded in Berlin, December, 1982
Like many contemporary hard rock and metal artist, Dokken started their career by recording and releasing a demo in 1980. However, prior to that, the first incarnation of the band released a 7" single in 1979. Soon the band was signed to the French Carrere label, as label mates to Saxon, Demon and Boney M! There are some confusing info about the bands debut album out there. I know it was first released under the Don Dokken moniker in 1981, on the mentioned Carrere label (see picture above, right). This version has a slightly different mix, and versions of songs. But I have no idea what the line-up was on this release. There is also a vinyl version (pictured next to the line-up), with different artwork then the CD version Elektra released in 1983. This version was also released on Carrere in 1982, with the titled spelled 'Breakin' The Chains'. The front of the cover shows the Dokken logo, but the spine of the sleeve stated Don Dokken as the artist. (thanks to Bill for the info)
Anyhow, 'Breaking The Chains' is raw and rowdy early 80's metal. Nowadays one might label it hard rock, but back then this was heavy metal. The songs are mostly 3 minute mid- to up-tempo rockers, without much variation. The title track is a bonafide classic (it was named the 62nd best hard rock song of all time by VH1), and sat a standard for the Dokken sound. George's dazzling guitar-work, combined with Don's harmonized vocals was to become their trademark sound. Dokken was there when the Sunset Strip scene was erupting, thus becoming a huge part of that scene's "upbringing". And 'Breaking The Chains' was one of the arrow points of the early days of this movement. Forget that it was later to be known as the hair metal scene, because back then we loved everything that sounded heavy. And 'Breaking The Chains' had memorable songs, and a guitar hero to boot! The production is a bit thin by today's standards. But one have to remember that it was originally recorded in 1981 (although this 1983 Elektra reissue is said to have been remixed and remastered). The album reached number 136 on the Billboard 200.
Killer tracks: Breaking The
Chains, In The Middle, Nightrider, Seven Thunders, Paris Is Burning
Don Dokken - Vocals
George Lynch - Guitars
Jeff Pilson - Bass, Vocals
Mick Brown - Drums
'Tooth And Nail' pretty much follows up where 'Breaking The Chains' ended. Jeff Pilson replaced Juan Croucier (who left to join Ratt) on bass, and the classic line-up of Dokken was born. Although it is looked upon as a classic album, I don't like 'Tooth And Nail' as much as their later records. It does include some great classic tracks, and it is definitely one of the most raw-sounding Dokken albums, but the overall feeling doesn't do much for me. I dunno, it just sounds a bit outdated. Gotta love the drum-sound though! VERY 80's!
Killer tracks: Tooth And Nail, Into The Fire, Alone Again,
Don Dokken - Lead Vocals
George Lynch - Guitars
Jeff Pilson - Bass, Background Vocals
Mick Brown - Drums, Background Vocals
Dokken's third album is in my opinion their best. It was the first one I heard, and I like it as much today as I did back then. Catchy melodies that's easily remembered. Dokken play what is known as pop-metal or hair-metal, and they do it well. These guys had much success with this album, and "In My Dreams" got heavily played on MTV.
Killer tracks: Unchain The Night, In My Dreams, It's Not Love
Don Dokken - Lead Vocals
George Lynch - Guitars
Jeff Pilson - Bass, Background Vocals, Keyboards
Mick Brown - Drums, Background Vocals
At the height of their career, Dokken released their first live album. Now, this band is not famous for being the greatest live act around, and it has certainly not helped over the years. Don's voice in particular has gained a reputation for being less then mediocre on a stage. But I must say that this live CD sounds pretty good. And if for nothing else, this also works well as a greatest hits package. You're not much of a Dokken fan if you don't love the majority of songs presented here. And no one can tell me that the band does not sound tight here. 'Beast From The East' might not be the best live effort released, but it shows the band as they were back in 1988.
I've later found out that all of the guitar-solos on this album were re-recorded in a studio. So it turns out that 'Beast From The East' is yet another live album that isn't exactly live.
Don Dokken - Vocals
George Lynch - Guitars
Jeff Pilson - Bass and Vocals
Mick Brown - Drums and Vocals
This was supposed to be Don Dokken's solo-album #2, but as usual the record-company wanted it differently. So the regular line-up of melodic rockers went into the studio and re-recorded 'Dysfunctional'. And I must say I'm pleased with the result. One can only guess, of course, what some of these songs would have sounded like if John Norum and Mikkey Dee would have played on them instead of Lynch and Brown. However, this is just meaningless speculations. To me this albums stands out as another good Dokken album, and the band does not show signs of the bad turns to follow (read: 'Shadowlife'). If you are into this band, you won't be disappointed. "From The Beginning" is a cover of an Emerson, Lake & Palmer song.
Killer tracks: Inside Looking Out, Too High To Fly, What Price
Rock trivia: A fun little thing about this album, is that 2 of the song titles later became album titles. "Shadows Of Life" became 'Shadowlife', and "Long Way Home" is also the title of Dokken's 2002 release.
Don Dokken - Vocals
George Lynch - Guitars
Jeff Pilson - Bass and Vocals
Mick Brown - Drums, Percussion and Vocals
This album is Dokken experimenting with more modern sounds, and it doesn't work that well. I haven't listened to the album much, 'cause I didn't feel like giving it another spin after hearing it once. No song stand out. I'll give it some more play and see what happens, but for now it is one of the most boring CD's in my collection.
Killer tracks: ?
There is nothing new on this compilation, but I still like this release. It has some cool liner-notes, including both the band history, and comments to each song. The tracks are in chronological order, and span form 'Breaking The Chains' up to 'Dysfunctional'. The only odd thing, is the track from Don Dokken's solo-release. A great retrospective overview on one of the best 80's hair-metal bands.
Don Dokken - Lead Vocals
Jeff Pilson - Bass, Vocals, Acoustic Guitar, Mellotron and Keys
Mick Brown - Drums, Percussion, Vocals
Reb Beach - Guitars
After some disappointing stuff being released under the name of Dokken, the band returns to a sound much more akin to their older stuff with 'Erase The Slate'. The title track could just as easily have been on 'Under Lock And Key', as on this 1999 release. So I instantly enjoyed this disc. But after a few spins, I discovered a problem with it. Too many of the songs just didn't cut it in the long run. "Maddest Hatter" and "Crazy Mary Goes Around" are examples. But if you can enjoy what is truly good here, you have a fine melodic soft-metal platter. Dokken is once again warmly welcome in my collection.
Killer tracks: Erase The Slate, Change The World, Shattered
Don Dokken - Lead Vocals
Jeff Pilson - Bass, Vocals & Moog Taurus Pedals
"Wild" Mick Brown - Drums, Vocals
Reb Beach - Guitars
A live disc, given to me by a friend in USA (thanks, Scott). The first thing I noticed, was the great sound on this album. The second was the poor set list (OK, I like the Dokken of the 80's the best, so what did I expect?). The guitars are handled by Reb Beach, 'cause George Lynch was off recording disco-tunes(!!). Dokken live is a pleasant experience, but this will never become a live-classic. The awful 10 minute + "Too High To Fly" ruins much of it, and the songs I like in studio-settings, don't give me quite the same kick here. So this becomes more of a collector's item, but I'm glad I have it.
Don Dokken - Vocals, Acoustic Guitar, Rhythm Guitar
Mick Brown - Drums, Percussion, Vocals
John Norum - Lead Guitar
Barry Sparks - Bass, Vocals
After a long time with internal struggles in the band, with members coming and going, and even deliberate actions from original member to try and destroy the band, Dokken reappeared with a revitalized lineup in 2002. Barry Sparks and John Norum replaced Jeff Pilson and George Lynch/Reb Beach, and Dokken released their 8th studio album, entitled 'Long Way Home'.
The new album was a much more modern sounding affair. The guitars are downtuned, and the whole album feels experimental and laidback. I'm quite surprised by the fact that a shredder like John Norum doesn't show more of his skills here. Don is not the fantastic singe he used to be during the 80's, but he can still deliver emotion and melody like only he can. Anyhow, there are some very catchy, classic Dokken sounding songs present, like the opening "Sunless Days". 'Long Way Home' also reeks of The Beatles vibes. Just listen to "Everybody Needs (To Be With Someone)". And "Heart Full Of Soul" is actually a cover of the 1965 The Yardbirds single. But for the most part I'd say that 'Long Way Home' features the melodic hard rock we all have come to expect from Dokken. It's not their strongest records, by far. But it does deliver some strong songs nonetheless.
Killer tracks: Sunless Days, Little Girl, Everybody Needs (To Be With Someone), Under The Gun, I've Found

Gophers to Face Wildcats
Oct. 10, 2013
The Last Meeting
October 14, 2012
Elizabeth Lyle Robbie Stadium
After being on the road for three weekends in a row, the University of Minnesota women's soccer team returned home to Elizabeth Lyle Robbie Stadium to host Big Ten opponents, Ohio State University and Penn State University.
Friday evening, despite the windy and wet conditions, the Golden Gophers were able to hold the Buckeyes to a scoreless draw infront of an excited home crowd. The Gophers and Buckeyes battled for 200 minutes, while freshman goalkeeper Tarah Hobbs was able to collect seven saves during the double overtime campaign. Read more about Friday's match against Ohio State here.
Going into the Sunday afternoon match against unbeaten then-No. 7 Penn State, the Gophers were looking to pick up their second upset of the season, while adding a tally to their win column. Minensota was able to do just that as they shutout Penn State, 1-0, in front of an excited crowd who spent Sunday afternoon rocking the Robbie. Sophomore forward, Haley Heleverson, was able to score the golden game-winning goal in the 17th minute for the Gophers and Hobbs was able to have her second consecutive seven save game and her third consecutive Big Ten shutout. Read more about Sunday's match against Penn State here.
The two game homestand allowed the Gophers to improve to 9-3-1 on the season and 2-2-1 in Big Ten play. The complete Big Ten standings can be found here.
Shots: Haley Helverson (24)
Shots on Goal: Katie Thyken/Josee Stiever (11)
Goals: Katie Thyken (5)
Assists: Simone Kolander/Taylor Stainbrook (3)
After an impressive weekend, two seven save games and her third-consecutive shutout, freshman goalkeeper Tarah Hobbs recieved a few well-deserved accolades for her outstanding performances. Hobbs, who is leading the Big Ten in save percentage (.873) and saves per game (5.5), was named Big Ten Defensive Player of the Week as well as Co-Freshman of the Week.
This is Hobbs first set of Big Ten honors and the first Big Ten honor Minnesota has recieved since Cat Parkhill was named Defensive Player of the Week last year.
Hobbs was also named to the TopDrawerSoccer.com Team of the Week and was the College Soccer 360 Primetime Player of the Week.
The Gophers have found a way to bring the concept of "teamwork" alive on the field each and every game. The Gophers have seen a vast variety of goal scorers this season as well as scoring opportunities created by different players each time. The Gophers have allowed the element of surprise in their game because no one knows who will step up during that specific game. The Gophers have had twelve different players with goals and/or assists.
- Did you know that the Gophers are unbeaten at home this season? They have three more opportunities to be victorious in front of their home crowd in 2013.
- Did you know that Katie Thyken is only two goals away from her career-high seven goals that she set last season with six games to go?
- Did you know that the Gophers have won each of their Sunday matches this season?
With the reputation of being a tough home team, the Golden Gophers are looking to take advantage of their ten home games this fall. Last weekend, the Gophers had two victories at home bringing their overall record on their home pitch to 128-51-12. Minnesota looks to extend that home win count when they meet Iowa and Nebraska next weekend at the Robbie.
Follow the match between Northwestern and the Golden Gophers by tuning into the live stats, live game day blog and live tweet updates that can be found here.
The Gophers will return to the Robbie for their last two-game weekend of the season on Oct. 18 when they start the two-game homestand with a match against Iowa on Friday evening.

Christine Stearns's Page
As I gratefully receive donations from friends and family for the Polar Plunge, I often hear how "crazy" I am for wanting to jump into the freezing lake. Well, I' ve been told I'm crazy for a other reasons, and maybe deservedly so, but for this cause, the Special Olympics, it seems to be a no brainer. It sounds crazy I know, but it certainly draws attention to and raises awareness of how special the Special Olympics are.
I was blessed to have raised five healthy children and see them compete in a wide variety of sporting events, including track & field and basketball. What a thrill to watch them compete and often receive a ribbon or trophy. What parent doesn't want that for their child? I used to compete in sporting events as well and I still remember what it felt like to receive an award. I didn't always place first, secord or even third, but I do remember what it takes to practice and prepare and finally get the opportunity to compete. Anyone who competes in sports knows there is a lot involved, including cost.
I was fortunate then and still am today to have the means to partake in such events.But, others are not as fortunate. Nearly 21,000 athletes with intellectual disabilities, and more than 6,000 "Young Athletes" are able to participate in year-round sports training and competition at no cost to their families because of the funds raised through Special Olympics. Every dollar raised helps support this worthy cause.
Thank you again for visiting my Polar Plunge fundraising page and thank you for your donation. They say anyone with a little guts and a warm heart can take the Plunge. I'm not crazy, I'm just one of those folk and I'm "Freezin' for a Reason"!
Peace to all,
Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to make a contribution to the LETR Polar Plunge for Special Olympics Illinois.
Many thanks for your support – and don't forget to forward this to anyone who you think might want to donate too!

The sound quality of the speakers and the sub is amazing, go really loud, and dont distort. you get what you pay for, use it for shows all the time, run 4 of these speakers, 2 to project, 2 for monitors, and the 2 subs to add massive amounts of bass to the mix, the speakers alone already have enough bass, running several mics and instruments through 36 channels.the bass on them is amazing, shaking an entire auditorium or concert hall.still holds up and has been reliable for over a year

We're Promoting the 4 ft. Pass Law
Have you driven on Blue Course Drive in Ferguson Township over the past week?
If so, you may have noticed a large variable message board, prominently placed on the shoulder, along the Penn State Golf Course property. It's been flashing the same message for nearly a week: "PASSING A BICYCLIST, KEEP 4 FT AWAY, IT'S THE LAW.
This message, which references PA state law (Motorists must allow 4 feet when passing a bicyclist), was a collaboration between CentreBike members and the Ferguson Police force, who owns the message board. We've found that many local motorists and cyclists are unfamiliar with the 4 ft pass law. This law is vital for cyclist safety, and we believe more can be done to raise awareness in our community. We're glad that Ferguson police support us in this effort!
CentreBike has plans in the works to continue promotion of the 4 ft pass law in Centre County — so you may be seeing more messages soon.
Have ideas or want to help with the 4 foot pass law promotion? Send us a message, or join us at our next general meeting.

Eat Your Heart Out, Mansory: NLC Launches Porsche Panamera GP-970
This car can be seen on youtube, it will be produced the same way you see it.
Front looks good but the back looks like the ones found on the focus
Engineering and innovation are easier to come by when your cars anywhere between 2 and 5 times as much.
This is what the Civic SHOULD look like
There is only so much a car can differ from another car. The last Kia that I think blatantly ripped off another car was the Amanti. I can see similarities, but if you are talking rip-off given how long it takes to move from a concept to a production car, again, I don't see it.
I like the more conservative styling of the current Forte, but this is really nice. Look forward to the revealing of the actual car to see if they carry it through into actual metal.
Beyond a shadow of doubt, Kia has class leading styling that once again show Acura/Honda design studios that they do on have a clue as to how to style cars that will sell on styling alone, as the Acura/Honda designers seem to only know how to design at best boring if not ugly cars. As extremely disappointed Honda owner, make next car will be a Kia.
The current Forte was not a hit. After all the Optima, Soul and Sorento dethroned it in sales as Kia's best seller.
Of course you don't see the 07' Altima's headlights on the Milon's you gotta put a Kia badge on the Mercury to see it.
Very nice....If you compare this design to the current Civic, it's like the new Samsung Galaxy vs. the Jitter Bug...lol.
The reason you see a familiarity in design with Audi, is because the head of Kia's design team is a former Audi designer.....Peter Schreyer.
Looks good except the extra window/pillar up front. That would be a deal breaker for me. I hope Kia offers a manual on all models and not just the base model. The 1.6 turbo would be a sweet option.
Looks like what the Civic should have evolved into.
not seeing it
WOW!! This Forte is beautiful IMO much better than the current one.
I think this is a good starting point for Kia, I really do. Add they 1.6 with about 150 hp as base in the Sedan, Koup, and Hatch, then the 1.6 Turbo as an SI competitor.
Well Kia has a good basic shape here but I hope the future model will allow me to "option up" without having to "give up" my choice of transmission like the Optima.
It,s a shame Hyundai/Kai is following the part that AUDI took to success - DESIGN . Audi has never had a big sequel, everyone of their vehicle is always a success or hit, but the sequel has never marched the success of the 1st generation in any of this hits.
Audi also have an advantage in Engineering and innovation that Hyundai/Kia lacks, but they have to keep bringing new name plates to the market to keep up with sales.There is no company out there today that has the design, technology , and the interior of Audi, but their sales have not lived up to the previous generations.
The 1st generation of Forte was a hit, i bet this next generation will not be as successful. Design will sell you cars but the sequel is always another story. I HOPE THEY CAN PROVE ME WRONG.
Ignoring that the Focus' backend ripped off the 2011 Sonata's but becausme Ford ain't Korean it's orgianl. And only the Forte would be the copy cat. Just like they want to act like the Mercury Milan's headlights didn't ripp of the 2007 Altima's.
Ignoring that the Focus's backend ripped of the 20
I can confirm with you: There will be a 1.6L Turbo option.
I am a close source to Kia and I can say that there will be a 1.6L Turbo option on both the 5-door and Koup.
Nice design, but the rear looks just like the 2012 Focus!
The side and rear look sleek, just like a larger version of the Rio sedan.
The front end, however, is a bit busy; Kia just have just used the front end that's on the Kia cee'd.
I hope it doesn't have that drastic of a side profile slope like the Rio sedan does. That's one of the major downfalls of that car as well as the new dodge dart. But i am hoping for good things, and looking forward to the new Forte Koup.
Looks good, but i think they will improve the body lines before releasing it in the flesh. I'm also pretty sure that this will see an engine uprgrade, either DI or possibly a turbo option
I saw a new five door Rio parked across from my office. It was very nice looking, especially for this price point. This Forte looks like another beauty.

In the region of Koulikoro (southern Mali), chronic malnutrition rates are amongst the highest in the country, yet most of the cereals in Mali are produced in the south. People spend most of their resources on one or two basic foods which are not enough to give them all the nutriments they would get from a more diverse diet.
Some 30 per cent of people in southern Mali are malnourished. Children and new mothers in particular need assistance to be healthy. In this image, six-month-old Issa eats a special nutrition product called Plumpy'Sup. This peanut butter-like paste is extremely rich in calories and very nutritive. A daily sachet reinforces the immune system and long bone growth in reversing stunted height, while protein also contributes to muscle development. As malnutrition shrinks the stomach, children don't need to eat big quantities to start recovering.
Before the project launched over a year ago, Adou survived on his millet crop. Sporadic rains, like those that fell in 2011 and 2012, could make the difference between survival and hunger. In the years to come, the dam he's working on will provide a reliable source of water if the rains come to early or late.
Thanks to the water retained by the dam, farmers are now growing paddy rice, but also potatoes, tomatoes and of course millet. They have also built a small fishing pound, so they can eat more proteins. They also sell their products on the local markets, which brings in money for the community.
In exchange of their work, food-for-work beneficiaries receive two kilograms of dry food rations of millet and rice per person per day. Food distributions are organized on a weekly basis by WFP's implementing partner REACH Italia.
Adou has 11 children, and it is very difficult to feed them all. Thanks to WFP's food-for-work project, he is able to offer them better and more diverse meals that help preventing malnutrition. In addition, the money his wife earned by selling vegetables on the local markets helped the family moving to a new house, much bigger – Adou will be a grandfather someday, and he needs space for his growing family.

Gulfstream Today 12.8.12
Gulfstream Today 12.8.12
Lead: Ken and Sarah Ramsey's 4-year-old Big Blue Kitten made a dramatic return to competition Saturday at Gulfstream Park, scoring a hard-fought head victory in the fifth race under jockey Javier Castellano.
The race marked his first start since a trip to England to run in the prestigious Princes of Wales Stakes (G1) on June 20 at the Royal Ascot meet.
The Kentucky homebred by the Ramseys' prolific home stallion Kitten's Joy stalked from third up the backstretch behind a slow pace in Saturday's $60,500 optional/allowance test run at one mile on turf, took command in mid-stretch, and held off a furious bid by Live Oak Plantation's Za Approval to win.
Robert Liebner's Bad Debt finished third, 1 ¼ lengths behind Za Approval second in the stakes-quality field of eight field. Big Blue Kitten paid $7.40 for $2 to win as the second choice and was timed in 1:37:69 over the 'firm' course.
"It was a big race for his comeback," said trainer Chad Brown. "It was a tough field, but the best spot we could find for him. He came back from the trip to England really knocked out. I'm grateful to Mr. Ramsey for sending him back to me and we'll talk about his next start, maybe the ($100,000) Ft. Lauderdale (G3 on Jan. 12)."
Big Blue Kitten made the first two starts of his career at Gulfstream in early 2011, breaking his maiden in March for a $35,000 claiming tag and no takers. He went on to win his next four starts, including the Hall of Fames Stakes (G2) at Saratoga in August. In two starts here last winter he finished third in a turf allowance and third in the Gulfstream Turf Handicap (G3) in February.
Big Blue Kitten got his final tune-up before the trip to England finishing second behind Wise Dan in the Ben Ali Stakes (G2) run on Polytrack at Keeneland in April. In the only out-of-the-money finish of his career, he checked in 10th of 11 in a world-class field in the Prince of Wales Stakes (G1) at Ascot, a race won by So You Think. Big Blue Kitten was in the care of trainer Sir Michael Stoute for his trip to England.
Horsemen of the Day: Jockeys Jose Lezcano, Javier Castellano and Joel Rosario each won two races on the Saturday card while trainer Mark Casse sent out two winners. Rosario continues his fast start at the session with 10 victories in the first six days.
Work of the Day: Gary and Cecil Barber's 3-year-old gelding Delegation, third last out in the $1 million Breeders' Cup Dirt Mile (G1) at Santa Anita on Nov. 3, drilled a 'bullet' five furlongs in 59 2/5 Saturday morning at Palm Meadows. Trained by Mark Casse, the son of Speightstown is expected to be among the favorites in the $100,000 Harlan's Holiday Stakes to be run at 1 1/16 miles next Sun., Dec. 16.
Rainbow 6 Carryover: $22,147.97.

American folk legends Mike Seeger and the New Lost City Ramblers perform at Skaneateles Fest.
American Folk Music owes a great deal to Mike Seeger. Seeger has turned audiences onto the world of old-time music for the last 50 years as part of the folk band the New Lost City Ramblers. He brought folk music into renowned venues such as the Smithsonian Institute, Carnegie Hall and the White House and has circled the globe performing alongside revered folk musicians like Elizabeth Cotton and Dock Boggs. Now, Seeger and the New Lost City Ramblers will give Skaneateles Festival audiences a taste of America's rich repertoire of traditional music.
Seeger, John Cohen and Tracey Schwarz quickly carved out a place for themselves in the folk music world when they formed the New Lost City Ramblers in 1958. Their dedication to old-time American music won the band many fans, and they soon began touring across the United States. Audiences simply fell in love with their homegrown style. It wasn't long before they were showcased on the radio show A Prairie Home Companion and were making appearances on every major U.S. television network. The band soon became international stars as they took their act overseas to such countries as France, Denmark, Great Britain, Japan, Sweden, Finland and more. The New Lost City Ramblers have been performing and recording together for more than four decades now. With more than 25 records and two Grammy nominations, they still love to tour, bringing their iconic American music to towns and cities across the country.
"Sometimes in interviews I'm asked why we play old-time music," Seeger said. "I suspect that many of us play this older style music for some of the same reasons that most bluegrass musicians play bluegrass, because we like it and it fits us."

Park vows warmer ties with Beijing
Publication Date : 11-01-2013
South Korea's President-elect Park Geun-hye pledged to reinforce the strategic partnership between Korea and China during her meeting with special government envoys from Beijing on Thursday
The four-member Chinese delegation led by vice foreign minister Zhang Zhijun made a courtesy call on Park at her temporary office in Tongeui-dong, downtown Seoul.
The meeting came as Seoul and Washington are intensifying calls on Beijing to agree to propose tougher sanctions against North Korea over its long-range rocket launch December 12. Park reiterated her policy of curbing Pyongyang's provocation and nuclear ambition while leaving doors open to dialogue and trust-building with the North.
"Park told the envoys that she will keep open the window of dialogue and cooperation through a trust-building process and humanitarian aide to the North," Park's spokeswoman Cho Yun-sun said. Zhang, in response, expressed support to Park's "trustpolitik" approach.
With regard to the pending UN resolution against North Korea's December 12 long-range rocket launch, the Chinese envoy was quoted as telling Park that his government maintained their position not opposing the UN Security Council's December 10 condemnation against the launch. China remains reluctant against taking stepped-up sanctions against the reclusive state.
The Chinese envoy delivered the letters from China's President Hu Jintao and General Secretary of the Communist Party Xi Jinping, who will assume China's top post in March. Park thanked the delegates' visit and congratulated her Chinese counterpart's new leadership, stressing that she hoped to further strengthen the trust and friendship with China through frequent high-level visits.
Adding that she believed the important foundation of the rapidly improving bilateral ties was due to the cultural-historical solidarity, the president-elect said, "Should such cultural-historical exchanges be made between the people and among the next generation, I believe the youth of both countries will grow up with amicable sentiment toward each other and become the solid foundation of a strategic cooperation partnership."
Xi said in the letter, read aloud by Zhang, that Korea was China's important neighbour, a strategic cooperation partner and a crucial player in the region, emphasizing that mutual understanding and trust-based cooperation between the two was crucial for regional peace and development. Xi then said Beijing will exert joint efforts to inherit the past and develop the future for new and enhanced bilateral relations. Xi also asked Park to send her special envoy to China in the near future.
This was the second diplomatic visit made by one of the four major regional powers ― US, China, Japan and Russia ― to the newly elected South Korean leader. The envoy of Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe visited Park on January 4. US Assistant Secretary of State for East Asian and Pacific Affairs Kurt Campbell is visiting Seoul next Tuesday and is widely expected to meet with Park during his two-day trip. Observers said China's choice to send Zhang, the next potential foreign minister, showed the country's hopeful anticipation of working with Korea's next government.
The meeting came amidst Seoul and Washington's efforts to pass a UN Security Council resolution to sanction Pyongyang for its successful rocket launch. China, one of the five permanent members with the right to veto, has remained at bay over the option.
Earlier in the day, Zhang met with Foreign Minister Kim Sung-hwan and acknowledged the rapid development of the two countries' ties and discussed ways to further foster their relations.
Since the two countries normalised ties in 1992, China has become Korea's No. 1 trading partner, although their diplomatic cooperation remained complicated due to Beijing's tolerance to North Korea's provocation.
Kim and Zhang agreed to strengthen their communication for stable management and solution of the pending problems including that of North Korea and its nuclear ambition.
During the campaign, Park had highlighted her devotion to enhancing ties with China, often doing so by showing off her Chinese-speaking skills. Park was also President Lee Myung-bak's special envoy to China five years ago upon his election. Reports and sources have said Park also maintains friendly acquaintanceship with Xi Jinping.
The president-elect's foreign policy pledges include a plan to upgrade the relations with China befitting the "strategic cooperation partnership" status in parallel to the traditionally strong and comprehensive strategic alliance with the United States.
The sensitive task of maintaining healthy relations with the two global giants is considered one of the crucial tasks of the Park administration. China is also considered a key mediator between the two Koreas, who are seen to be cautiously measuring each other's stance.
North Korea has publicly proposed that Park clarify her North Korean policy via its major mouthpieces, while Park's transition team has reportedly suggested they are reviewing ways to alleviate the economic sanction imposed by the Lee government.
A friendlier mood prevailed in Korea and China over Seoul's recent court decision to repatriate a Chinese national who set fire to Japan's Yasukuni Shrine instead of extraditing him to Japan, prompting a warm response from Beijing and an angry protest from Tokyo.
Korea last year celebrated the 20th anniversary of diplomatic ties with China, currently in tense confrontation with Japan in their territorial dispute.
On the economic front, Korea is pursuing a free trade agreement bilaterally with China and trilaterally with China and Japan.

NORTH FORT MYERS, Fla. -
A little over a year ago a Florida Highway Patrol trooper crashed into the back of a car, severely injuring a 28 year old mother and killing her unborn baby. While the family continues down their road to recovery, tonight Four In Your Corner's Dave Culbreth is learning of a financial flaw within the state that could have drained their bank account.
You would think that if you were to get into a serious accident with a state owned vehicle, you'd be better off financially than if you were injured by someone in a private vehicle right?. Wrong, and I'm showing you why.
"We lost our baby and there's no money in the world that will ever compensate you for that but we still should have at least got something more than what we got," said Christopher McClure, who's family was devastated by the crash.
It was a year ago this month that the McClure's were driving down I-75 when a FHP trooper was checking his emails on the computer in his cruiser and rear-ended them while going 90 miles an hour. "We had a husband and wife severely injured and we had a child killed and the most that they could get from the State of Florida was $300,000," said Liz Kagan, who is the McClure's attorney. "That's the total regardless of how many people are in the accident."
That's because a Florida Highway Patrol car is owned by the state of Florida, which can not be sued for more than $300,000. That may sound like a lot, but Kagan says, "Their medical bills were over $500,000." So, what did they do? "Since the officer was driving the car in an off duty role he had to have individual insurance of the same limit of $200,000/$300,000 as the state. So we were able to get both of those policies but it was still woefully inadequate for the injuries that they suffered."
Crystal McClure has been trying to recover ever since and is learning how to walk again. "Florida should get away from this 'no fault' state because when tragic things like this happen you get a lot of doctors bill racked up and that doesn't compensate you for nothing," explained McClure.
In addition to all this, their unborn child was killed in the crash. The McClure's have one picture of their baby. It's the only picture they will ever have. It was taken by a nurse at the Lee Memorial Trauma Center. "The hospitals and the physicians, they did an amazing job taking care of her," added Kagan. "She has both of her legs today because of what they did."
Kagan went on to say that Lee Memorial worked with her on the negotiations to make sure that the McClures got something out of the accident. They are now living in a new home on some land in North Fort Myers and are expecting another child.

Incase Flex Wristband for iPod Nano
2 Comments to Incase Flex Wristband for iPod Nano
I've been reading reviews about Incase's version of the Nano wristband. Most of them are happy with the how it allows the iPod to charge, or connect to the PC, without removing the wristband. Personally, I don't think the price is "budget-friendly." But then again, you're talking about a designer wristwatch-grade band here.

Game Of Thrones brought a record amount of viewers to HBO with its third season premiere this past Sunday, so it comes as no surprise that the show has been picked up for a fourth season. The next 10 episode order will premiere in 2014 and follow the storylines from the second half of A Storm Of Swords. I'm not familiar with the books so please don't tell me whether or not it actually rains swords. Because what could be more thrilling than a sword fight while it's also raining swords? Think about it, if you drop your sword you could just snatch one out of the air and go on fighting. Matter of fact, I'm starting my spec script right now. (THR)
