What makes The Florida Keys such an idyllic setting for your Florida Holiday? How about glorious weather, breathtaking scenery, fabulous beaches and a warm welcome from the locals.
The stunning Florida Keys are an archipelago, made up of about 1700 individual islands, stretching 120 miles from the southern tip of Florida down towards Cuba. The Keys are accessed via Highway 1, a spectacular road built in 1938 and made up of causeways and bridges connecting the islands of this Florida paradise together, with the Gulf of Mexico to one side, and the Atlantic Ocean the other.
As a holiday destination, the Florida Keys offer some of the finest diving, fishing (both beach and deep sea) and water sports to be found anywhere in World and this is due to the Keys having the only living coral reef in the continental United States.
The primary destinations or resorts for holiday makers visiting the Florida Keys are Key Largo and Key West.
The first of the Islands after leaving the Florida mainland, this easternmost Island is also the largest of all the Florida Keys. Key Largo itself is about 120 miles south of Miami and stretches about 15 miles. Diving and Eco tourism make up a large part of Key Largo's income.
Large portions of Key Largo are unspoilt and protected lands, including the crocodile lake National Park (the primary breading for the endangered American Crocodile) and the John Pennekamp coral reef park (the first underwater park in the United States).
Some of the more popular resort complexes in Key Largo include the Marriott Beach Resort and the Holiday in Resort and Marina both of which provide an excellent and great value base for your Key Largo Holiday.
The final frontier, Key West is the last of the Florida Keys to be linked by the highway and is about 260 miles south of Miami.
Key West has developed into a wealthy tourist town and perhaps is most known for its association with the American Writer, Earnest Hemmingway and Key West features a museum completely dedicated to him and his work. As a holiday destination, Key West has a great deal to offer.
Water sports are well catered for with scuba diving, offshore fishing and of course the area is a particular favourite with those looking to swim with dolphins.
One of the best ways to view Key West is to take a trip on the famous Conch Tour train or using the Old Town trolley tram ride.

Micro-Garden Madness: You Showed Us Your Stuff
Earlier this week, we told you about some of the people who are trying to make micro-gardening go big — by sharing their DIY tips and selling products designed to make gardening in a small space a piece of cake. Many readers of The Salt let us know they were all for it.
As KL Gamble wrote on Facebook, "Maybe it's time to bring back victory gardens — even if on a smaller scale," referring to the gardens the government encouraged citizens to plant to supplement their dinner plate during World War I and World War II.
It turns out plenty of readers of The Salt are already micro-gardening with some impressive DIY chutzpah. We've chosen a few of our favorite images of micro-gardens from around the country that make the most of small spaces and idle containers.

If you were asked to change one thing about your body, what would you say? Would you want to lose those stretch marks you picked up from pregnancy? Or maybe you'd like to lose the 15 pounds you picked up from freshman year? What about your shoulders, hair, feet, smile, eye shape, butt and muscles? By the time you've thought about every little physical trait you'd like to improve, you may be wondering if it's even possible for you to choose just one thing to change.
Unfortunately, this desire to change our body is quite common for many of us. After all, we're constantly surrounded by media telling us the "ideal" way to look and the hundred ways we aren't the ideal.
So that begs the question: When did we begin living in a world of counting flaws? We couldn't have been born this way, right?
JubileeProject went ahead and conducted an experiment to find out. They gathered 50 people– both children and adults– and asked them what they would like to change about their body. The results? Children and adults have drastically different responses.
The description to the video states, "We hope that this video will inspire you to be more comfortable and confident in yourself. Beauty is not about what you don't have, but about being comfortable in your own skin."
The official website describes Jubilee Project as "a 501c3 that exists to tell stories that inspire change. We make short films, PSAs and documentaries in collaboration with non-profits to increase awareness and inspire action. Our vision is to produce entertaining content that will empower, enable, and inspire others to do good as well." Learn more about them here.

Guadalajara history dates back to 1542. The now beautiful city actually had a few setbacks in it's first few years of settlement.
What's Here?
Guadalajara History
Mexico came under Spanish rule from 1521 to 1821. What is now Guadalajara was settled by Spanish Conquistadores on February 14, 1542. They were led by the infamous Nuño de Guzmán.
It has been said that Guzmán and his followers raped, burned and pillaged their way westward. This created much anger, hatred and hostility from once peaceful Native American tribes.
The hostility of these tribes is what kept the conquistadores from settling the area that Guzmán hoped to name Guadalajara after his hometown in Spain.
What are other visitors saying about Guadalajara?
It took 3 failed attempts to finally settle due to the Mixton War (1540-1542) with the local tribes.
Ironically, Guzmán was arrested by royal authorities and died in a prison in Spain the same year Guadalajara, Mexico became an official city.
History of Guadalajara - Cofounders
The cofounders of the city were Doña Beátriz de Hernández (photo of her statue is above) and governer Cristóbal de Oñate. There is a monument to honor them in Plaza de Los Fundadores.

Two arrests in Bend fatal hit-and-run
Investigation of fatal hit-run car-bike crash shut Third Street in south Bend for nine hours Tuesday. (KTVZ.COM/Barney Lerten)
Updated: 8:37 AM, Apr. 18, 2007
By Barney Lerten, KTVZ.com
Two arrests have been made, one for hindering prosecution, in the violent hit-and-run death of a bicyclist on Bend's Southeast Third Street early Tuesday, police said.
Capt. Jim Porter confirmed to KTVZ.COM that the alleged driver of the car has been arrested, along with a second person arrested earlier on a charge of hindering prosecution. Their identities, as well as the victim's, should be released later in the day, Porter said. He also confirmed that a car found burned on China Hat Road south of Bend late Tuesday morning is the one believed to have struck the woman bicyclist from behind, at a high rate of speed, as she rode north of Third Street around 2:30 a.m.
The investigation at the crash site - called "horrific" and "horrendous" by officers and other witnesses - shut the busy business thoroughfare for nine hours Tuesday morning.
A newer-model silver Mercedes was sought in the crash, based on pieces of the car strewn on the road - and late Tuesday morning, a car matching that description was found burning about 200 feet off China Hat Road, a mile and a half south of town. Porter said it burned so fiercely there were "puddles of aluminum," and expressed surprise that no neighbor had reported the blaze.
Reed Lane between Third Street and Parrell Road also was closed for the investigation, and officers said the car apparently swerved onto Reed Lane after the collision.
Several officers called it the worst or one of the worst such crashes they had seen.
The road shutdown affected many drivers and workers on one of the city's busiest commercial thoroughfares, through and well past the Tuesday morning rush hour. Many were left wondering what was going on as traffic was detoured onto other streets, including Parrell Road and the Bend Parkway.
Oregon State Police assisted in the crash scene investigation.
Anyone with information on the case was asked to call police at 322-2960.

UK Traffic Law
Ask an UK Traffic Law Question, Get an Answer ASAP!
Hi-sorry um unlicensed-the wording is the DVLA is currently preparing a claim against you as the registered keeper of an unlicensed vehicle.
I havent received a court summons,
the letter reads that should i wish to avoid this action then i must pay an out of court settlement of £80.00 immediately, otherwise legal action through the courts may commence and your vehicle may be clamped or impounded.
The intended action will be made in accordance with section 7a of the vehicle excise and registration act 1994. Please be aware that you are (or may be) contravening section 31a of the vehicle excise and registration act 1994 (or of the act) which commands a minimu fine of £1000.00 if convicted.
I have since responded to this letter with this-
I am writing to you in reference to the attached letter I received from yourselves concerning my old vehicle F*** ***and my refusal to pay a fine for apparently owning an unlicensed vehicle.
I bring your attention to the interpretations Act 1978, sec 7 which states "Where an Act authorises or requires any document to be served by post (whether the expression "serve" or the expression "give" or "send" or any other expression is used) then, unless the contrary intention appears, the service is deemed to be affected by the properly addressing, pre-paying and posting a letter containing the document and unless the contrary is proved, to have been effected at the time at which the letter would be delivered in the ordinary cost of post."
An acknowledgement letter will not prove beyond reasonable doubt the sending or not of a V5 registration document. If the DVLA either failed to receive the document or failed to process the document then it is the DVLA or post service who are at fault and therefore I have committed no offence and should not be fined.
My change of owner slip was posted on the 26th October as required, and whilst I have been reminded that should I not have received confirmation from the DVLA within 4 weeks I should have phoned the DVLA to chase, however "The DVLA have no statutory right power requiring anyone to ring them or otherwise respond should they not receive an acknowledgement letter."
I enclose the sales invoice from my sale of the vehicle to blade on the 26th October which should provide enough evidence that the car was not in my possession or under my ownership on the 1st November.
I have received a text this morning again from intercredit stating that my case is being scheduled through Northampton county court.
I have received no further letters to date.

Missouri is a pretty good state. It is the home of one of my favorite cities, Kansas City. It also has a really bad Senator up for reelection this year, Claire McCaskill. Missouri also has a pretty worthless Republican establishment.
There is a great conservative who is rising up to take on the Republican establishment and send the tax loving and tax dodging Senator McCaskill into retirement.
Who is this conservative you need to know about?
She is Sarah Steelman.
Sarah Steelman has been involved in Missouri politics since she ran for the State Senate in 1998, knocking off a liberal incumbent. In 2004, she became State Treasurer of Missouri. As the state treasurer, she implemented a "divest terror" strategy, divesting the State of Missouri from investments in companies that do business with nations that sponsor terror.
She ran unsuccessfully for Governor in 2008.
Now she wants to take on one of the most liberal and one of the most worthless Senators ever to walk the halls of Washington, Claire McCaskill.
You may remember McCaskill. Not only did she dodge tax payments on her personal airplane that she and her husband owned, she also charged the government for reimbursements for travel on her own plane. What is worse, the travel was for political, not official purposes.
Sarah Steelman is a refreshing change for Washington. One of her first promises is that if she is elected, she will work to abolish the pension system for Congress. Eliminating the pension system up there is a noble idea and might actually get rid of some of the careerist congressmen and make serving in the Congress actually public service again.
Steelman also supports auditing the Fed and simplifying the tax code.
Steelman does have a problem. She may be the strongest candidate in the field, but she is a conservative, which is going over like a lead balloon with the Republican Establishment.
A group of 16 establishment flacks, led by former Senator and crown prince of the RINOs, John Danforth penned an open letter to Missouri RINO Tom Schweich asking him to enter the primary. Schweich is a former member of the Bush administration and served as Danforth's Chief of Staff when Danforth was the American Ambassador to the United Nations.
The Missouri primary is another example of the not wanting Tea Party activists and conservatives to have any positions within the party. The RINOs believe conservatives should be neither seen nor heard. They believe we should just shut the hell up and support whatever RINO they decide should be the nominee.
Not only no, but hell no!
Sarah Steelman is an amazing candidate. She is not a part of the status quo. She is not a part of the RINO establishment, which is why they fear her.
She is the kind of Senator we need in Washington.
Let's help Sarah Steelman become the Republican nominee in Missouri and then lets help her send one of Obama's favorite Senators, Claire McCaskill into retirement!

It is open season on RINOs and on liberals and we have no bag limit. Let's start sending them into retirement and Missouri is one of the best places we can replace a corrupt Democrat with a good conservative.
Let's help Sarah Steelman win one for America!

Reminds me of the national Republican presidential nomination. The Republican Establishment is doing its best to make sure NO conservative is elected, for any office, anywhere. I hope the "Show Me" state shows those RINOs what patriotism is all about.
Thanks. Each state needs to put non-traditional candidates forth.
You right Debrajoe... In Rhode Island, one of the biggest Blue States..after some hard work..
we finally have a good conservative candidate to run against Senator Sheldon Outhouse (Whitehouse for you non-RI people)...His name is... "Barry Hinckley"..he just had that great video of his 5 yr old on the economy..it was great....If you haven't seen it, you must its good & to the point!
I'm still a vey stronge believer in a New Third Party for 2016...It's the only way to move forward with our conservative values and to save this country...for all!! God Bless!!
well....another TP Conservative.....
I wonder how long it will take before they take her down in ways the devil hasn't thought up yet.
Do not wonder of the devils ploys pray against them. Stomp on his scheming head. Gods' Will be done!!
YES! Another Sarah as good as the well known one. Get'em ladies. As far as the estblishment is concerned, I've already moved them (to use DC terminology) the other side of the isle with their same mindset jackasses. Warning to all of them, KEEP YOUR BAGS PACKED!!! You will be moving soon. WE ARE COMING!!!
I was born in Kansas City. I grew up there and only left when I went to war (Vietnam 1969-70). I lived there once again after returning home. I had been on a military leave of absence from the GM Assembly Plant in Leeds, Missouri, just outside KC. I finished college on the G.I. Bill and took a job as a computer programmer working off the Plaza area in KC. Then I married and finished graduate school. I moved to Carrollton Texas.
Most of my family still lives in the K.C. area. Some are in Blue Springs. Some are in Overland Park, Kansas. My best and life long friend, Bob, is still in Overland Park. He celebrated when Kansas got rid of Kathleen Sebelius. Unfortunately, Sebelius is now part of a corrupt Obamanation administration and able to inflict herself on the entire nation. Missouri is full of democrats concentrated in the big cities, KC and St.Louis. In a former marriage, my father-in-law was a union lobbyist working in Jefferson City and living just east of the Kansas / Missouri state line. This whole set of in-laws were life long democrats. But they were of the now defunct era of conservative democrats.
My grandfather's second cousin was Harry S. Truman. My entire family was composed of conservative democrats. Clarie McCaskill is a phoney and always has been. She represents the worst of either political party. I will visit Steelman's website and try and help even though I am now retired and on a fixed income, having been forced into retirement due to the Obamanation economy.
GREAT blog entry....
as I see it, a Vietnam Vet,
Before the last election, I had decided to vote for McCaskill since she promised in her campaign to serve the People of Missouri. I soon found out that this wasn't true. She has repeatedly stood by and supported Obama's laws and regulations he's put in place whether they're constitutional or not. Anyone who is not a patriot in our country should be "run out of town on a rail." The reason we have so many grassroot organizations now is because obviously the politicians now in office are not going to listen to the people they were voted to represent. And why aren't we all rising up and indicting anyone who thinks they're above the Constitution and the rule of law no matter who they are or their political rank all the way to the Office of President?? My father and husband both served in the Army in WWII and Korea so that our rights and way of life could be preserved. Thank god both came home safe. But what about those who didn't. Did they give their lives so that we'd have to fight on our own soil to keep our rights intact today?

Russian-ballet instructor Susan Stantefort originally opened the studio as Susan's School of Dance in South Holland, where she taught students for 13 years. When she, like aspiring actor Abraham Lincoln, moved from Illinois to California, she left her former student, Denny Gurley, in charge of the studio. Gurley moved the studio to its current Orland Hills location, renamed it, and helped transition it to the leadership of current director Connie O'Reel, also known as Dr. Danz.8931 159th StOrland Hills, IL US

Have Legal Questions? Ask a Lawyer Now.
I was first hospitalized on October 25th my last day of work was the 21st. We have approximately 50 employees I believe.
I returned to work after a maternity leave in January. I am checking on the amount of fellow employees as we speak with an associate. There are 34 employees not including the two owners.
After my first hospitalization from October 25th to the 29th, I went to the office that Monday and was told during a meeting with both owners that they recommend that I take some time off under temporary disability and go through my treatment. I was subsequently readmitted to the crisis unit on November 10th through the 22nd.
The owners printed filled out and provided the documentation to me. I have been under medically supervised leave since and currently have not been cleared to return to work.

Direct protein induction of pluripotent stem cells from human fibroblasts
Human embryonic stem cells, also known as pluripotent stem cells, are recognized as a valuable tool for advancing our knowledge of human development and biology, and also for their potential in regenerative medicine. Recently, new embryonic stem cell derivation technology has allowed scientists to derive the equivalent of human embryonic stem cells from adult cells, rather than from human embryos. This important advance allows for the possibility of eliminating the problem of immune system rejection of transplanted cells.
The use of embryonic stem cells, because they have thus far been derived from human embryos, is controversial. Recent technical innovations, however, have shown that there are now new opportunities for scientific progress with human pluripotent stem cells obtained from sources other than human embryos. Studies using human skin cells have shown that these skin cells can be directly reprogrammed back to their embryonic stem cell state without going through an embryonic state; thus, no embryos are created or destroyed using this new technology.
These human pluripotent stem cells obtained from skin have been termed induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) as they have been induced by the forced expression of four human protein factors introduced into these skin cells using viruses. iPSC technology holds the promise that iPSCs can be derived from an individual's skin cells and from this state be triggered to form heart, brain and other cell types required for regenerative repair. As these cells may be derived from an individuals own skin and transplanted back into the same individual, the derived repair cells are likely recognized as self and thus unlikely subject to immune rejection.
Currently, the iPSC technology is unsuitable for use in humans as the viruses used to express the four factors required to induce the formation of the iPSC become part of DNA of the cell and are closely associated with causing cancer or other life-threatening diseases. Here, we propose a study to side step this difficulty by using a novel reagent to actively express the same four factors expressed in the virus-derived iPSCs but without the use of virus. Introducing active proteins into the cell in a non-integrative fashion helps eliminate the risk of cancer. When successful, the iPSCs derived using this technology will be safe for use in humans and this will allow a faster movement of successful patient-derived stem cell therapies into the clinic.
Human induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) derived from differentiated human adult tissue cells following viral-driven expression of a small number of "reprogramming factors" are a monumental discovery. The possibility of translating iPSC technology to patient-derived stem cell therapy is nothing short of revolutionary and is of immediate benefit to every Californian and, indeed, all of humankind. This proposal will apply pre-existing, California-invented technology, in the form of a novel reagent to deliver the same active "reprogramming factors" directly to the nucleus of fibroblast cells. The resulting iPSCs will be suitable for clinical use as they are directly derived from the active proteins in the absence of cancer-associated viruses. This project is highly relevant to the goals of CIRM, and will result in the removal of a major block in the translation of iPSC technology to the clinic, namely the presence of random integrative cancer-causing viral sequences in the genome. The safe induction of patient-specific iPSCs will allow safe, effective and immune-tolerated stem cell therapies for the people of California and the world. This successful technology will have an immense economic benefit to California and illustrate that the people of California were justified in their support of stem cell research and have helped propel this research into the clinic for Californians and the world.

Concord, Penn roar into McCuen collision
Concord's Steve Austin and Penn's Al Rhodes aren't known to be among the easiest men in the high school basketball world to please.
So, when both coaches are pleased at once, especially this early, embrace it.
Or more to the point, embrace the matchup of their teams that is set to take place Friday night at Concord's McCuen Gym.
Each club heads into it on the heels of a dazzling season debut last weekend.
The Minutemen merely rang up their most lopsided victory over an Indiana opponent in 26 years with their 93-40 win at Glenn.
The Kingsmen won by a more pedestrian 69-54, but that was against a well-regarded 3-0 Fort Wayne North team and it accounted for Penn's second-widest margin of victory in an opener in the last 12 years.
"I thought we played really well both offensively and defensively for having just two weeks in," Austin said of his squad's opener, delayed by the school's extended football playoff run. "I think it's one of the best (openers) I've had a team play, not just here, but anywhere."
"We competed very well against a good team," Rhodes assessed of his team's premiere, which resulted in his 500th career victory. "(North) pressured us the whole game. One of the things that is important for us is how our four sophomore guards (Jordan Geist, Nate Miller, Billy Doslak and Ryan Lutz) play, and I thought they all played well. Our half-court defense was very good as well. It was a strength of our team, and we're going to need that after seeing Concord score a zillion points."
The Minutemen didn't get quite that many against Glenn, but they did have 58 by halftime while allowing just 14.
In the first significant minutes of his varsity career, 6-foot-5 sophomore Filip Serwatka registered game-highs of 21 points and 11 rebounds while going 8 of 12 from the field with a 3-pointer.
"He's a very skilled offensive player who can also run and jump," Austin said. "He needs to learn how to use his size more, but he did rebound well. He's somebody we can maybe build our future around."
As for the present, six other players added at least eight points each in the opener, led by Ball State recruit Franko House's 12.
Junior guard Ramon Johnson had nine to go with six assists and five steals.
Meanwhile at Penn, Notre Dame recruit Austin Torres had 18 points and 10 rebounds in the opener. Geist and Doslak added 12 points each and Conner Sowders 10. Geist dished four assists and Miller three.
"No. 1, I think they're strong on the inside," Austin said of the Kingsmen, "and then it looks like their guards can shoot and are penetrating a lot harder than in the past. They're a little young, but the biggest thing is they were able to get some experience last year."
Because Concord's was on Friday and the Kingsmen's on Saturday, Austin and Rhodes each saw the other club's opener in person last weekend.
"My first thought was they played excellent defense and they did a strong job of rebounding," Rhodes said of the Minutemen. "Obviously, they shot the ball well (including 11 of 22 on 3-pointers), their guard play has improved and they've got excellent team depth."
Friday's showdown will mark the 26th time Rhodes and Austin square off. Concord swept 57-47 and 59-50 decisions last season, but Rhodes still leads the head-to-heads overall at 15-10. Their battles include a split of semistate meetings in 1992 and 1993 when Austin was at South Bend St. Joseph and Rhodes at Warsaw.
Friday's contest won't have anything close to those kinds of stakes, but it's shaping up as attractive nonetheless.
"I think both teams had a lot of people play well last week," Austin said, "and I think it's going to be a fun game."
"We're very pleased about the opportunity of this game — to go on the road against a difficult opponent," Rhodes said, "but we will have to rebound better and shoot better to have a chance to win."

Reenter the shadowy world of Jason Bourne, an expert assassin still plagued by the splintered nightmares of his former life. This time the stakes are higher than ever. For someone else has taken on the Bourne identity, a ruthless killer who must be stopped or the world will pay a devastating price.
To succeed, the real Jason Bourne must maneuver through the dangerous labyrinth of international espionage, an exotic world filled with CIA plots, turncoat agents, and ever-shifting alliances, all the while hoping to find the truth behind his haunted memories and the answers to his own fragmented past. This time there are two Bournes...and one must die.
©1987 Robert Ludlum; (P)2008 Random House
"A killer of a thriller." (USA Today)
"Wish I could give it 10 Stars!!!"
Fantastic listen: Entertaining, Exciting and Captivating. Better than 'Bourne Identity' (didn't think that was possible}. Can't say enough. Don't expect to hear what you saw on the screen (two different stories - both unbelievable). If I sound like a Bourne enthusiast, you're right. Wish that Ludlum were still alive and writing.
I like to read and listen to Science, Sci-Fi, Fantasy, Military, History, and Thillers.
"Where did the Movie come from????"
Different but Astounding
I loved the book but Marie drove me up the wall. I know why the movies killed her.
"Great Read! Better than the Movie!"
Definitely, I would love to see the actual Ludlum storyline used in a remake of these movies! Completely shocked me to see the extreme difference between the movie and this story!
Have listened to all of the first three bourne books and he does a great job!
If you are on the edge of listening or reading, listen! Nothing compares!
I absolutely love my audible account, makes its from enjoying a book to loving the stories found in the books. Do forgive my errors in the reviews i do have dyslexia but i will share my love with everyone
"still no CIA coverup"
Robert Ludlum has done a great job showing of the dangers of the CIA doing something so dangerous that miss information and manipulations of David Webb will lead to a mess.
when someone is pretending to be Jason bourne the real jason is tricked into hunting the old jason down. bring him in and find things out. but when the CIA is to scared to ask David for his help they kidnap his wife. bad move. so now David has to go to China and hunt down a man trained to kill just like bourne would pretend to kill.
but the CIA have things go wrong very fast and so disaster strikes all over.
Books are a mainstay of my life! Even the preschoolers and toddlers in my care, have several hundred books, which I rotate based on need.
"Far Too Complicated"
Not sure what could make this story better except maybe cutting it in half. I really enjoy long stories and do not read books with simplistic plots. However, this book was beyond difficult to follow - too many characters and too many subplots. Nothing was as it seemed, so it felt as though it should have been in the fantasy category. Disappointing.
It was entirely too long becasue the author created too many characters and subplots.
There have been an occasion or two when I've selected a book because Scott has been the narrator! Scott could read a phone book and make it sound great. He always turns in a terrific performance.
Major disappointment. So much so that I'm returning this book. No sense in keeping it since I will NEVER listen to it again!
Unless your mind resides in the rabbit hole, don't bother with this tome.
"Not what I expected"
Having only seen the movies, I was completely unprepared for the story line. I have to say I absolutely loved it. The movies are great, but way to loosely based on the books.
"More action."
I loved the pace of the book. I found it great to listen to, because of all the action that took place.
My favorite character in this book is Bourne's handler, and friend, because he makes up for trying to kill Bourne by helping him get to China to find his wife.
The scene I loved is the one when Bourne almost succeeds in destroying the safe house in Victoria peak. I wish he could have roughed up the two officials that caused him trouble just a bit.
I really did. After I got this book from the library for the blind, I knew I just had to have my own copy.
I would recommend all the books in the series.
"Needs work"
Had to keep rewinding in order to understand what was going on in the story. End was anti-climatic.

The New York metropolitan area contains nearly 20 million people, many of whom own and drive automobiles. On a typical day, more than 1 million cars line the streets and fill the parking lots of New York City. As the number of vehicles and vehicle-related violations increase, law enforcement has been hard-pressed to keep up, especially since Sheriff's Office personnel has been reduced 50 percent since 1985. Last year, unpaid parking tickets exceeded $1 billion per year. More than 100,000 vehicles were stolen, but only about one-third were eventually recovered.
Until 1988, the city provided each parking enforcement staff member with a book of license plate numbers several hundred pages long. Enforcement personnel would look up license plates to identify stolen vehicles or parking scofflaws. The books were printed and distributed weekly.
Eight years ago, in an attempt to automate the clumsy hard-copy system, the city purchased mobile data terminals (MDTs), which made accessing the information quicker and more reliable. Staff typed license plate numbers into MDTs in their patrol cars. This accessed a database maintained by American Management Systems (AMS) in Texas, and took less than a minute to verify if the car was towable. "This is precisely the benefit of an electronic inquiry," said Peter Talamo, undersheriff, NYC Sheriff's Office. "It can sort through the records at tremendous speed, instead of someone with very thick fingers looking through a book."
However, air time was expensive. "Here in New York City it is absolutely difficult to get radio frequencies," said Talamo. "Some outlying or more rural areas probably can operate with low frequency radio waves, but here in the city, it's very difficult." In addition, the Sheriff's Office paid charges for every inquiry, whether or not the car was towable. Only one out of every 200 vehicles checked was found eligible, so 99 percent of the $2 million-per-year access charges were wasted.
You do the math.
As the city looked for a way to reduce communication costs, recover more stolen vehicles and increase parking violation revenues, it wanted a more portable way of checking licenses. With MDTs, deputies drove down streets slowly and covered less territory than they would otherwise. They also needed devices that would work well near water, surrounded by buildings or in tunnels. What the Department of Information Technology and Telecommunications (DoITT) found was a small, palm-sized solution called TOWIT.
TOWIT (TOW eligibility Interrogation Terminal), a palmtop PC-based system, locates vehicles previously reported stolen or with $230 or more of unpaid parking tickets. The deputy enters a suspect license number into the palmtop, where it is compared with a database of towable plates. The database is self-contained, so no radio frequency charges are incurred. If the palmtop finds a match, it beeps instantly, and the officer uses the MDT system to obtain more information. The palmtop's 16MB database is refreshed once a week with current information. This saves 99 percent of the formerly wasted radio frequency access charges. Plus, the one-minute wait time per entry is eliminated.
Once the sheriff verifies the vehicle is towable, the information is transmitted to the Department of Finance, and the MIS division will automatically input the information into NYSPIN (New York State Police Information Network), noting there is a hold on the car. Through a central number, owners can find out if their vehicles were stolen or have been seized by the city.
"With the TOWIT system you dramatically reduce costs and increase productivity because you can do the screening off-line, off-hours, and you don't have database access and radio charges," said Joe Bernstein, MIS director for the Department of Finance parking violations division.
In addition, the palmtops are lightweight, work well in any environment, are less costly to replace and allow deputies and marshals to cover more territory because they are portable and small enough to fit into a jacket
