Dr.
Lorenzo Fisler was elected to City Council in 1839, and he was chosen to
be Mayor in 1840 and held that post until 1844, when the mayor's office

in 1848 on the Whig ticket, but was defeated. He ran again in 1851, and
was elected, but failed to win the following year, losing to journalist Charles

in 1854, defeating former mayor John
K. Cowperthwaite. Heran unsuccessfully three more times, in 1859,
1866, and 1869.

Dr.
Fisler was a clear and logical writer, and was the author of a pamphlet
history of Camden, published in 1858, called A
LOCAL HISTORY OF CAMDEN, an excellent account of events up to and
conditions existing at that time. As a
public lecturer he was noted for his pleasing address and humorous satire,
and he was frequently invited to deliver addresses before associations of
a benevolent or charitable character. On June 2, 1853 he founded the
Camden City Medical Society, in company with Dr.
Sylvester Birdsell, Dr. Othaniel Tayor, Dr. Richard M. Cooper, Dr.

News

The airline who brought us televisions on the back of seats for comfort is in the news today for more than its innovations. A JetBlue pilot went on a mid-air rant and had to be subdued by passengers.

What was supposed to be a non-stop flight from New York to Las Vegas, turned in to an emergency landing in Texas. CBS reports Captain Clayton Obson, a veteran piolet, stormed down the aisles of the plane then began banging on the cockpit door. Instinct struck in and 6 passengers fought Obson and held him down for 30 minutes until the plane was able to land safely.

The FAA reported that the co-pilot intentionally locked Obson out of the cockpit because of his bizarre behavior. The


A just released study of Rockland's tourism economy highlights an increase of 8.2 percent in 2012 over the prior year. According to County Executive C. Scott Vanderhoef that places Rockland in the unique position of leading the six-county Hudson Valley region in increased visitor spending. The yearly Economic Impact of Tourism report determined Rockland now represents 13 percent of overall traveler spending in the Hudson Valley or $390 million out of the region's $3 billion tourism industry

Rockland's year over year traveler spending increase was the largest percentage jump of the region. Overall, tourism spending in Rockland has grown by more than 25 percent since 2009.

Rockland officials attributed the increased spending to regional tourist attractions, more movie and television filming and key marketing strategies. Projects ranging from independent moviesto large-scale Hollywood productions have filmed in recently, including a new pilot from HBO directed by Peter Berg filmed last week in the Village of Nyack. CJ Miller, coordinator of the county's Office of Tourism & Local Development, noted the county's attractions include the Palisades Center, Provident Bank Park; seasonal street fairs in the Village of Nyack and popular cultural celebrations, including the annual spring Greek Festival and the state's second-largest St. Patrick's Day parade.

"Every event that happens in our community receives unbelievable support from the Tourism office, resulting in events like the Halloween Parade, street fairs and Art Walk attracting more people from further away, filling our streets, businesses and restaurants with shoppers and strollers and guaranteeing our reputation as a great village to visit," said Nyack

Corvette Recovery Program

As we're sure most of you know, tragedy struck the National Corvette Museum on February 12, 2014, when a sinkhole opened up and swallowed eight rare Vettes. After stabilizing the area the slow and painful process of recovering the cars began. First to be lifted out was the '09 ZR-1 “Blue Devil” on March 3. It looked to have only sustained minimal damage and drove out of the museum under its own power.

The second car out of the hole was a '93 40th Anniversary example and it didn't fare nearly as well as the ZR-1. The damage was expected as the cars fell more than 30 feet and many were buried under rubble. As John Spencer, manufacturing integrationRoute 15 lanes closures planned in West Rock tunnel

Fellaini has not started a single game yet, but his sole presence can change a game for United. That is exactly what he did against Swansea City and, most recently, against Leicester City this past Saturday.

Against the Welsh side, Fellaini’s presence was key to recover possession in midfield. The fact that United scored three goals after he came off the bench is not a coincidence. He did not score and did not register an assist either, but he became the perfect complement for Nemanja Matic and Paul Pogba in the middle of theWilliam

other established CIA stations in cities like Detroit with large immigrant populations where “agents of access” could be recruited who would help the CIA gather human intelligence from their relatives, friends, and acquaintances in foreign countries. Some members of the Lebanese community in the United States, for instance, provided vital links for the agency’s operations targeting Hezbollah’s activities around the world. What Cohen did at the CIA was consolidate those two operations, which of course put him at odds with many FBI agents, who thought he was poaching on their turf.

Cohen had spent most of his CIA career as an analyst before moving over to that darker side of the agency, then known as “operations” and now known as “clandestine services,” and he rose up through its ranksat a time when Langley was imploding.

The discoveries that two of the CIA’s own people, Aldrich Ames and Harold Nicholson, had spent years spying for the Russians had led to a wholesale purge. And as veteran operatives quit or were forced out, Cohen moved up.

At the time, an FBI agent named Edward J. Curran was in charge of the internal CIA investigation that many insiders saw as a witch hunt. Subsequently, Cohen recruited Curran for the NYPD, where he has spent years running liaison with foreign police forces and intelligence operations. NYPD detectives are stationed in Tel Aviv, London, Paris, and several other cities around the globe for just that purpose.

Cohen ended his active career at the agency in the late 1990s with a post as the head


of the CIA’s New York office, which has a wide array of functions in a city that hosts many global organizations, including, of course, the United Nations. At the time, an FBI agent named Sidney Caspersen was in charge of the Feds’ “electronic surveillance” in the city. Caspersen also eventually went to work for Cohen at the NYPD.

Meanwhile, Cohen maintained close ties to many of his old colleagues in the top ranks of the agency. These included George Tenet, the CIA director in the early Bush years, and John Brennan, who’s the CIA director now. Brennan, like Cohen, had spent most of his agency career as an analyst, but Cohen moved him to operations and appointed him to be the CIA station chief in Saudi Arabia back inthe mid-1990s. Brennan was President Barack Obama’s deputy national-security adviser for homeland security and counterterrorism before taking his current post.

One of the most interesting spooks to join up with the NYPD was undoubtedly Lawrence Sanchez, a veteran of the CIA’s clandestine services whose name was blanked out of the CIA inspector-general’s report on relations with the department, but whose career I covered extensively in my book.

Sanchez was sent to the NYPD under the authority of the Directorate of Central Intelligence “to improve analytic information-handling capabilities of law enforcement entities in the States of New York and New Jersey,” according to the inspector-general report. In fact, as I reported in 2009, he was a conduit channeling CIA intelligence from abroad to the New York police so they could act

Capital One Cup Tips | 11th August 2015

THE first round of the League Cup rolls around on Tuesday night so we asked Mark O’Haire (@MarkOHaire) to highlight his three favourite fancies.

Bolton v Burton | Tuesday 20.00

Over the past two seasons of first round Capital One Cup football we’ve seen 38.5% of lower league teams avoid defeat against their higher division opposition and that trend ocould be set to continue on Tuesday night.

Bolton boss Neil Lennon has said he’d like to take the competition seriously having enjoyed great success in the League Cup as a player. But Lennon also confirmed he’d be making changes for the Macron encounter against Burton with skipper Darren Pratley definitely out having picked up a weekend injury.

The Trotters have previous when it comes to


psets too. Last season they required extra-time against Bury and then Crewe in this competition and so a similar outcome against Burton could well be on the cards. The Brewers are 21/20 with Bet365 in the Double Chance market and we’ll be paid out should the visitors avoid defeat in regulation time.

League Two champions Albion have ousted Sheffield United (twice), Leicester, Wigan and QPR in the past three seasons alone whilst managing to score in all bar one of their previous 11 League Cup outings. Jimmy-Floyd Hasselbaink’s men are battle-hardened after playing three Championship sides in pre-season – Wolves, Birmingham and Derby – and began their campaign with a well-earned success at home to Scunthorpe on Saturday.

Blackburn v Shrewsbury | Tuesday 19.45

Blackburn boss Gary Bowyer called for greaterUnited and Scunthorpe United – from the third tier of English football. In contrast, Tuesday’s opposition Shrewsbury stunned Blackpool, Leicester and Norwich last season before being beaten by eventual winners Chelsea.

The Shrews, the best team in the fourth tier last season despite not being crowned champions, are well managed by Micky Mellon and are ready to battle. Salop’s boss confirmed they’ve had Blackburn watched since pre-season and have ploughed through plenty of DVDs during their homework to find the hosts’ weaknesses.

Town are available at evens with BoyleSports in the Double Chance market and that’s a bet that holds appeal. Mellon’s men were leading Millwall on Saturday before being turned over by the Lions on home turf and will be eager to pit their wits against a Championship club

Repowering older wind turbines, which involves replacing aging turbines or components, is becoming more common in the United States as the turbine fleet ages and as wind turbine technology advances. Newer turbines tend to be larger and installed at greater heights, allowing for more capacity per turbine. About 12% of the wind turbines in the United States were installed before 2000, but these turbines make up only 2% of the installed wind electricity generating capacity.

Federal production tax credits provide an incentive to increase electricity generation from existing wind turbines. In December 2015, the production tax credit (PTC) was extended until the end of 2019. The four-year extension and legislated phase-out of theinfrastructure projects. The annual wage of civil engineers with a bachelors was roughly $82,220 in 2015, while civil engineering technicians with an associates degree ranged closer to $50,000 per year.

The subdiscipline of structural engineering governs construction of buildings, bridges, tunnels, and off-shore structures. This involves identifying the loads which act upon a structure, and the forces and stresses which arise within that structure due to external stresses. How can the structure successfully support and resist those loads? The structural engineer takes into account both material considerations such as strength, stiffness, and stability of the structure, as well as other design considerations including cost, safety and sustainability. Due to the nature of some loading conditions, wind engineering and earthquake engineering have developed as specialties within structural engineering.

Verses 32-38 Jotham showed great respect to the temple. If magistrates cannot do all they would, for the suppressing of vice and profaneness, let them do the more to support and advance piety and virtue.

1-7. In the twenty and seventh year of Jeroboam--It is thought that the throne of Judah continued vacant eleven or twelve years, between the death of Amaziah and the inauguration of his son Azariah. Being a child only four years old when his father was murdered, a regency was appointed during Azariah's minority. began Azariah . . . to reign--The character of his reign is described by the brief formula employed by the inspired historian, in recording the religious policy of the later kings. But his reign was a veryactive as well as eventful one, and is fully related ( 2 Chronicles 26:1-23 ). Elated by the possession of great power, and presumptuously arrogating to himself, as did the heathen kings, the functions both of the real and sacerdotal offices, he was punished with leprosy, which, as the offense was capital ( Numbers 8:7 ), was equivalent to death, for this disease excluded him from all society. While Jotham, his son, as his viceroy, administered the affairs of the kingdom--being about fifteen years of age (compare 2 Kings 15:33 )--he had to dwell in a place apart buried in the royal burying-field, though not in the royal cemetery of "the city of David" ( 2 Chronicles 26:23 ).

design of Shallum.

13-17. Shallum . . . reigned a full month--He was opposed and slain by Menahem, who, according to JOSEPHUS, was commander of the forces, which, on the report of the king's murder, were besieging Tirzah, a town twelve miles east of Samaria, and formerly a seat of the kings of Israel. Raising the siege, he marched directly against the usurper, slew him, and reigned in his stead.

16. Menahem . . . smote Tiphsah--Thapsacus, on the Euphrates, the border city of Solomon's kingdom ( 1 Kings 4:24 ). The inhabitants refusing to open their gates to him, Menahem took it by storm. Then having spoiled it, he committed the most barbarous excesses, without regard either to age or sex.

17. reigned ten years in Samaria--His government was conductedon the religious policy of his predecessors.

19. Pul the king of Assyria--This is the first Assyrian king after Nimrod who is mentioned in biblical history. His name has been recently identified with that of Phalluka on the monuments of Nineveh, and that of Menahem discovered also. came against the land--Elsewhere it is said "Ephraim [Israel] went to the Assyrian" [ Hosea 5:13 ]. The two statements may be reconciled thus: "Pul, of his own motion, induced, perhaps, by the expedition of Menahem against Thapsacus, advanced against the kingdom of Israel; then Menahem sent him a thousand talents in order not only to divert him from his plans of conquest, but at the same time to purchase his friendship and aid for the establishment of his own precarious sovereignty.


several months had intervened between the death of Menahem and the accession of Pekahiah, probably owing to a contest about the throne.

25. with Argob and Arieh, &c.--Many commentators view these as the captain's accomplices. But it is more probable that they were influential friends of the king, who were murdered along with him.

29. in the days of Pekah king of Israel came Tiglath-pileser--This monarch, who succeeded Pul on the throne of Assyria, is the only one of all the kings who does not give his genealogy, and is therefore supposed to have been an usurper. His annals have been discovered in the Nimroud mound, describing this expedition into Syria. The places taken are here mentioned as they occurred and were conquered in the progress of an invasion.

30. Hosheathe son of Elah made a conspiracy . . . and slew him--He did not, however, obtain possession of the kingdom till about nine or ten years after the perpetration of this crime [HALES]. in the twentieth year of Jotham--Jotham's reign lasted only sixteen years, but the meaning is that the reign of Hoshea began in the twentieth after the beginning of Jotham's reign. The sacred historian, having not yet introduced the name of Ahaz, reckoned the date by Jotham, whom he had already mentioned (see 2 Chronicles 27:8 ).

33. Five and twenty years was he when he began to reign--that is, alone--for he had ruled as his father's viceroy ( 2 Kings 15:5 ).

35. the higher gate of the house of the Lord--not the temple itself, but


one of its courts; probably that which led into the palace ( 2 Chronicles 23:20 ).

37. the Lord began to send against Judah Rezin the king of Syria, &c.--This is the first intimation of the hostile feelings of the kings of Israel and Syria, to Judah, which led them to form an alliance and make joint preparations for war. war was not actually waged till the reign of Ahaz.Authorities are looking for more people who might have been victimized by a man they said impersonated a police officer during the annual Calf Fry in Stillwater.Investigators said they believe Steven Walker used a cellphone with red and blue lights and used a notebook when he told people he would write them tickets, try to confiscate their beer and grope people during the event last week at Tumbleweeds.

D.C. United signed Venezuelan international midfielder Júnior Moreno on a permanent transfer from Venezuelan top tier side Zulia FC pending receipt of his P1 Visa and International Transfer Certificate.

At only 24, Moreno earned the role of captain at Zulia FC and his club performances earned him a call-up to the Venezuelan National Team. After making his debut on June 3, 2017 against the U.S. Men’s National Team, Moreno went on to play in five of Venezuela’s remaining seven games in 2017 including three 2018 CONMEBOL World Cup qualifying games.

“Júnior has established himself in the Venezuelan National Team because of his physical presence and ability to connect the game in the midfield,” Dave Kasper, United general manager, said. “He is adept at reading the game, making quick transitions onboth sides of the ball, and he will provide us with tactical flexibility with his ability to play both holding and central box-to-box midfield positions. Júnior is arriving at a great age with international experience in both World Cup qualification and the Copa Libertadores, and we look forward to his future with our club."

Moreno made his debut with the Venezuelan National Team in a 1-1 draw with the USMNT in an international friendly on June 3, 2017. The midfielder provided the assist for José Manuel Velázquez in the 29th minute of the game to give the Venezuelans a 1-0 lead at Rio Tinto Stadium. Moreno went on to earn five caps for La Vinotinto in 2017 and scored his first goal for his country in a 1-1 draw


with Ecuador on June 9. In the 2018 CONMEBOL World Cup qualification campaign, he started and played 90 minutes in the 1-1 draw against Argentina on Sept. 6 and the 0-0 draw with Uruguay on Oct. 5. He also came off the bench as a substitute in the 1-0 win over Paraguay on Oct. 11.

In 2012, Moreno made his professional debut for Asociación Civil Deportivo Lara before moving to Zulia FC in 2015 where he scored three goals and recorded three assists in 64 appearances in the top tier of Venezuelan soccer. Moreno helped lead Zulia FC to their first Copa Venezuela victory in club history in 2016 by beating Estudiantes de Caracas 2-0 on aggregate over two legs.

Moreno was born into a soccer family with his Argentinefather Carlos Horacio Moreno being a former professional player and current coach for Portuguesa FC in Venezuela.

With the declaration that Clinton would become the first female commander-in-chief, spokesperson Feilim Mac An Iomaire said in a statement, "Trump gave it a hell of a shot going from a rank outsider to the Republican candidate, but the recent flood of revelations have halted his momentum and his chances now look as patchy as his tan."The letter, which Brown shared with BuzzFeed, goes on for five pages in elaborate language and accuses Brown of writing an "irresponsible, shoddy, malicious screed that was clearly concocted by a writer or writers (and/or editor or editors) intent on pressing a transparent, political agenda":

A lawyer for Red Granite Pictures, a film production company whose CEO is Riza Aziz, the son of the Malaysian prime minister's wife, sent a lengthy legal notice to blogger Clare Rewcastle Brown after she published stories about the connection between Aziz and the movie and questioned where Aziz's money comes from, implying that the film was at least partly financed by money obtained via government corruption.

WASHINGTON — Lawyers for the financial backers of the new Martin Scorcese movie The Wolf of Wall Street


are threatening to sue a blogger who wrote about the film's connection to the step-son of Malaysia's prime minister.

The letter demands that Brown retract the piece and also get other media outlets who wrote about the piece to retract their versions, or face litigation. The lawyer, Sunny Brenner, also threatens to "communicat[e] with other media organizations and/or other persons and entities regarding the falsehoods in the Article and the irresponsibility of Sarawak Report."

Brown, a sister-in-law of former British Prime Minister Gordon Brown, is an independent journalist and leading critic of the Malaysian government and has been the subject of a denial-of-service attacks as well as being barred from entering Malaysia in July.

In her coverage of the film and Aziz's involvement with it, Brown wrote that Aziz's mother, thewife of prime minister Najib Razak, was promoting the film in Malaysia, a Muslim country, despite its R-rated content heavy on sex and drugs.

"How Riza Aziz emerged as a major bankroller of Hollywood movies is of obvious interest," Brown wrote. "Could it be linked to his family position and circle of associates?"

Aziz and his partner, Joey McFarland, gave an interview to the Hollywood Reporter in which he said "I will say that I have money invested in the company. It shows that I have skin in the game and am committed from a financial point of view. We also have a group of investors, mainly from the Middle East and Asia."

SAN FRANCISCO – Tesla CEO Elon Musk is gearing up to lead a buyout of the electric car maker in a stunning move that would end the maverick company’s eight-year history trading on the stock market.

In his typically unorthodox fashion, the eccentric Musk dropped his bombshell on his Twitter account, which he has used as a platform for pranks, vitriol and now for a proposal to pull off one of the biggest buyouts in U.S. history.

Musk got the ball rolling Tuesday after the stock market had already been open more than three hours with a tweet announcing he had secured funding to buy all of Tesla’s stock at $420 per share with no further details.

AtIt’s unanimous: Mariano Rivera is a Hall of Famer.

The retired Yankees legend, considered by many to be the greatest closer of all time, became the first player to be voted into the Baseball Hall of Fame unanimously Tuesday, named on all 425 ballots submitted.

The career leader in saves — both during the regular season and playoffs — set yet another record as he headlined a class that includes Rivera’s former teammate Mike Mussina, as well as Edgar Martinez and Roy Halladay. They will join Harold Baines and Lee Smith, who were voted in by the Today’s Game Era committee last month.

Video posted by MLB on Twitter showed the normally unflappable Rivera celebrating excitedly in his home and being mobbed by his family when he was informed he received


career with the Yankees after signing with the organization for $2,500 out of his native Panama in 1990.

He was called up in 1995, when he struggled as a starter before showing glimpses of what was to come when he was moved to the bullpen.

Rivera went on to save 652 games in the regular season and 42 more in the playoffs in a career that was as dominant as it was consistent.

He helped the Yankees win five World Series title and was named World Series MVP in 1999, when they swept Atlanta and Rivera closed out three of the victories.

One of the only batters to have any success of Rivera and his cutter was Martinez, whose career 1.705 OPS versus Rivera is by far the best of any hitterwho faced him more than six times. Martinez made it in his 10th and final year on the ballot.

“Going in with Mariano means a lot,’’ Martinez said. “Not only because he was the top reliever in the game and a great human being, but also the fact he got 100 percent of the votes makes it extra special.”

Mussina, in his sixth year on the ballot, made it in with 76.7 percent, just over the 75 percent threshold required. The right-hander spent eight years with the Yankees after 10 in Baltimore and said during a conference call he was unsure which hat he would wear into the Hall.

There was no drama for Rivera.

He was named an All-Star 13 times, including his final season in 2013, when Rivera returned from


© Naggiar Tasting Room

Across California, winery tasting rooms rely on motivated staff to sell their wine.

Housing costs and immigration laws are restricting workers despite the number of wineries needing staff.

Even before the 2017 and 2018 fires which caused huge damage, wineries had been hard-pressed to find good employees. Tasting room hourly rates, even at a comparatively attractive $15 an hour, won't cover the cost of the most basic apartment in plush areas like Napa, Sonoma and Carmel on the Central Coast.

After the devastating fires many of the younger, and lesser-paid, workers left Northern Californian winegrowing areas permanently to join family in other parts of the world. Political shifts in immigration policies had also diminished the supply of non-legal workers available for temporary agricultural work. With the reduced housingstock, rentals only became more expensive and previously affordable feeder communities such as the Sonoma community of Santa Rosa had much of their middle- and working-class neighborhoods decimated.

Wage changes and the housing market were a number of issues addressed by a panel of winery executives, a recruiter, a wine writer and the Mayor the Napa Valley town of Calistoga at last week's 7th Annual SF Lux Wineries Boot Camp in Yountville.

The apartment crunch

The three words that define the hiring issues behind the wine business' difficulty to find good talent are "housing, housing and housing", according to Chris Canning, the mayor of Calistoga and the former executive director of the local Chamber of Commerce.

According to yesterday's posting on ApartmentList.com the average cost of a two-bedroom rental was $1175 a


When Gary Bettenhausen died suddenly on the 18th of March 2014, it saw the passing of a endearing Hoosier figure that came to represent much of what we as motor racing fans look for when it comes to this sport; an easy-going and likable figure who made up for his lack of natural talent on the track with sheer grit and determination away from it, and whilst he was never able to win at Indianapolis throughout his 21 appearances at the Brickyard his battling qualities through adversity and family tragedy made him a devout fan favourite come Memorial Day weekend.

Born on the 18th of November 1941, Gary Bettenhausen was almost destined for a career in motor racing. His father Tony Bettenhausen had been a dominant star in theworld of Indy car racing throughout the 1950’s, and along with Gary and his younger siblings Merle and Tony Jr would combine to give the Bettehausen family 46 500 appearances between 1946 and 1993. After running stock car races to little fanfare during the early 1960s, Bettenhausen first broke into the racing spotlight when he competed in USAC midget cars in 1968, instantly becoming a force in the series at the wheel of a machine owned by veteran Willie Davis. During the next four years Bettenhausen enjoyed a series of hard-fought duels between himself and fellow racer Larry Dickson, with the two swapping a pair of championships between them in a pulsating rivalry that came to be known by local racing aficionados as the Larry and Gary show.


These high profile battles, combined with encouraging early results in Champcar racing driving for Frank Gerhart, lead to Bettenhausen being approached by Roger Pesnke to drive for his team for the 1972 Indycar season.

Finally in the hands of a competitive chassis in the series, Bettenhausen was quick to prove his worth to his new employers, picking up his first USAC win at the second race of the season in Trenton and entering that year’s Indianapolis 500 as one of the leading contenders for victory. During the race itself Bettenhausen led 138 laps of the race, and held a comfortable lead over the rest of the field before ignition trouble forced him out of the race with just 18 laps remaining, allowing team-mate Mark Donohue to pick up thewin in what would go on to be the first of 16 victories for Roger Penske at Indianapolis. Despite the disappointment of missing out on the victory, many critics came to the praise of Bettenhausen for his performance during the race, with most believing that the Hoosier native’s aggressive style combined with Penske’s race-craft would see them as a dominant force in the sport for the next decade.

The budding partnership however came to an abrupt end in the summer of 1974, when Bettenhausen was severely injured during an accident in a sprint car race at Syracuse, New York, damaging multiple nerves in his left arm in the process. Although Penske had pleaded with Bettenhausen before and after the accident to stop racing sprint cars to focus on his


was smoother and more understated in a bid to cater to his arm injuries. After a series of uncompetitive rides at the speedway Bettenhausen returned to the limelight in 1980, when he took advantage of a rain delay during Bump Day to squeak his year old Wildcat chassis into the field for the 500, before driving an intelligent and determined race to finish third behind Tom Sneva and race winner Johnny Rutherford. A fifth place finish would follow for Bettenhausen in 1987, before being appointed as the lead driver for the Buick V6 Indycar project, securing the fastest time in qualifying in the project’s first works season in 1991 (although he was forced to start 12th due to his time coming on the second day of qualifying). Bettenhausenwould go on to finish 22nd after the Buick’s notorious reliability issues brought an end to his race on lap 89.

Following the 1991 race Bettenhausen would compete in two further Indianapolis 500s before ending his career after contesting the 1996 Indy 500 at the age of 54, going out as one of the most well regarded figures ever to grace the Brickyard. Some may look at Bettenhausen’s career as one of missed opportunities, his injuries putting paid to a career with Penske that may have seen championships and 500 victories in the process, but it doesn’t take anything away from a driver whose dedication turned him into one of the speedway’s most popular figures both on and off the track, and one that remains sorely missed from the


A highway near Kaikoura, New Zealand was damaged after an earthquake early Monday. The quake triggered landslides and a small tsunami, but largely spared the country the devastation it experienced from another quake five years ago. (David Alexander/AP)

New Zealand is planning to send in military helicopters and a navy ship to rescue about 1,000 tourists and hundreds of residents who remain stranded in the coastal town of Kaikoura after a powerful earthquake Monday cut off train and vehicle access.

The 7.8-magnitude quake struck the South Island just after midnight. It killed two people and triggered a small tsunami. It also brought down rocks and mud that swept across highways and cracked roads.

Home to about 2,000 residents, Kaikoura is a popular destination for travelers taking part in whale-watching expeditions orstrong aftershocks continued to shake New Zealand on Monday, rattling nerves. The country was largely spared the devastation it experienced in 2011 when an earthquake struck the city of Christchurch and killed 185 people. That quake was one of New Zealand’s worst disasters, causing an estimated $25 billion in damage.

Monday’s quake caused damage in Wellington, the capital, and was strongly felt in Christchurch. Residents said the shaking lastedabout three minutes.

Police said one person died in Kaikoura and another in Mount Lyford, a nearby ski resort. Several other people suffered minor injuries in Kaikoura, a police spokeswoman said.

Prime Minister John Key flew over the destruction in Kaikoura by helicopter as aftershocks kicked up dust from the landslides below. Cars could be seen lying on their sides and parts of


Saturday National Women’s Soccer League game between FC Kansas City and the Boston Breakers has been rescheduled to a future date due to the ongoing lockdown in Boston. The game was scheduled to be played at 8:35 p.m. ET at Shawnee Mission District Stadium in Overland Park, Kan. No makeup date was immediately announced.

The Breakers were scheduled to travel to Kansas City on Friday, but never boarded the plane. Logan International Airport remained open through Friday’s Watertown, Mass., manhunt for a second suspect in the Boston Marathon bombings that killed three people and injured over 170.

“Due to increased security measures that have impacted travel from the area, we have made the decision to reschedule this weekend’s game between Kansas City and the Breakers,” NWSL executive director Cheryl Baileyleading the investigation. The result: she was beaten with a brick by her husband.

A friggin’ brick.

According to Modena prosecutors’ initial findings, the father Ahmad Khan Butt, a 53-year-old construction worker, threw his wife to the ground and beat her with a brick while the brother Umair attacked his sister.

Begum Shahnaz, the wife, was murdered. She died due to the injuries. Bricks do that when used by construction workers on the heads of women.

And lately we have an actress from the Harry Potter movies who was attacked by her brother for dating a non-Muslim.

We should reject the notion that the U.S. economy is locked in to an insipid economic future by forces beyond its control. Recognition of the powerful economic potential of the United States, an orientation toward a long-term pro-growth agenda, and political courage are required.

They are the product of a venture that has seen him wading chest-deep through sewage, stepping over live railway tracks and camping for a week in a subway.

These incredible pictures tell an oft-neglected tale of two great cities from deep below the surface and high above the skyline.

Urban explorer Steve Duncan, 33, said he wanted to capture the forbidden places people usually take for granted in his reportage of New York and London.

Hold your nose: Urban explorer Steve Duncan surveys a sewer outfall in Wallabout, one of the oldest areas of Brooklyn, New York, as he sets about capturing the unseen areas of the city

In awe: Steve, 33, aims


to show a different perspective of cities in a way that highlights how 'amazing and beautiful' such man-made places can be Picking up a scent: Mr Duncan dons a gas mask as he wades through a storm drain that was once Sunwick Creek, now under the streets of Queens in New York City Casting a light on the underworld: Mr Duncan was excited just to commute on the subway when he first came to New York in 1996 to study at college, but soon took his fascination a step further Steve Duncan and a fellow urban explorer dash out of the way of an ocoming train as they seek to capture the rarely seen sights of New York's subway

Out for air: Mr Duncan admits he would initially tryYork in 1996 to study at college. However he quickly became addicted to the idea of exploring the world under the city.

Subterranean nut: Mr Duncan says he carries out extensive historical research before exploring a particular place and often impresses city engineers with his knowledge 'I started hearing rumours about all these fascinating places that


weren't on the normal tourist track,' he said. 'For example, a secret tunnel from Grand Central Station to the Waldorf-Astoria Hotel or a sub-basement in an old building with an underground river trickling through it. 'Abandoned subway stations were the first places underground I went into and it was amazing to find these huge spaces totally unused and lonely. 'They are in a city where every bit of space is filled with people and it was magical to find places where I could be as alone as if I was on a mountaintop. 'In fact, these places were no more than a couple dozen feet below some of the busiest streets in the world.'

"The men are to be slain whenever and wherever they can be found. The women and children may be taken prisoners."

It was late in the fall of 1863 and these were the official orders given to Kit Carson, famed Indian hunter. Carson had been ordered to round up all the Navajos in the Southwest and march them into exile. There were holdouts, and Carson led mounted U.S. Army troops to pursue the refugees through the canyons and across the mesas near today’s border between Arizona and Utah.

Among those resisters was a band of 17 men, women, and children led by a young headman named Hoskinini. They had a single horse, a rusty rifle, and 20 sheep among them. For several days, Hoskinini’s party walked


the Fearing Time—the U.S. government came up with a final solution to the “Navajo problem.” It was the brainchild of General James Henry Carleton, a fanatic of whom one historian wrote, “[He] believed it his duty and destiny as a good Christian gentleman to tame the ‘savages.’” It was Carleton who gave Kit Carson the genocidal order to shoot the men on sight—an injunction Carson disobeyed.

Thousands of Navajos surrendered. Within weeks, they were launched on the Long Walk—a 300-mile procession to a small reservation in the eastern New Mexico plains called Bosque Redondo.

No one knows how many of the Diné escaped the roundup. In one of his dictated field reports, Carson acknowledged that some of the cannier natives had fled. Hoskinini, then about 35 years old, was the[Bosque Redondo],” he wrote in an official dispatch in 1864, “are the happiest people I ever saw and are working well.”

A massive dome 10,387 feet high, Navajo Mountain is sacred to the Diné, who call it Naatsis’áán, or Head of Earth Woman. There, in the creation myth, Monster Slayer, one of the Hero Twins, was born. All hiking or climbing by Anglos on Navajo Mountain is forbidden today. But from the shelf beneath the peak on the southwest, Kettle Country looms in the distance. Its domes and canyons are arresting in their sandstone beauty, but they contain some of the most rugged terrain in the contiguous United States.

In 1925, Hoskinini’s son, 5 years old at the time of the escape, told historian Charles Kelly that the hideout lay


to explore. The answer is that there simply are no such folks available. Even the Navajos who live near the canyons seem to have little knowledge of them. With the road to Navajo Mountain now paved, the supermarkets of Tuba City are a lot more accessible than the cornfields of Kettle Country that once sustained the Diné.

Greg and I drove our rental SUV deep into the canyonlands of the Navajo Reservation. Rutted dirt roads branched everywhere, most of them ending at isolated houses where some of the more traditional Diné live today. It was impossible to navigate. I flagged down a car that was creeping toward us from the west. Two young Navajo men got out. I asked for directions to a trailhead just north of the mazeplace might lie in another, broader canyon 3 miles west of our basecamp. The maps also made it clear that to get from here to there would require difficult routefinding—if we could make it at all.

Sixteen years earlier, on an eight-day llama trek on the seldom-used Rainbow Bridge Trail that goes west and north of Navajo Mountain, I had caught a distant glimpse of this slickrock maze that had confirmed my belief that there was no more tortured topography anywhere in the Southwest. In 1922, an archeologist also glimpsed this trackless labyrinth from afar and wrote: “[It] might be likened to a sea driven in the teeth of a hurricane, the waves of which at their height had been transfixed to salmon-colored stone.” The challenge of negotiating it,


almost kill you with his eyes, he could also nurture the weak and the despairing. In the wilderness, Hoskinini surely never doubted that his people would survive and flourish. In his fierce pride and visionary faith, he became the legend that many Diné still invoke at dawn, in the doors of their hogans, as they pray to the rising sun. ■

David Roberts tells the complete tale of Hoskinini in his latest book, The Lost World of the Old Ones, published in April by W. W. Norton and Company.

On a snowy night in New Hampshire, Congressional candidate Gary Dodds crashed his car, wandered into the woods, and collapsed. Twenty-seven hours later, rescuers carried him out. And then the real drama began.and black breast can be seen.

Well, one of the student-made paper airplanes was found. Two sets of paper airplanes were launched from my school back on February 24th. The location the airplane was found was just north of Lucky Peak reservoir. That's a distance of close to 20 miles. So I suspect the paper airplane was released at balloon burst, rather than earlier when I thought the balloon trigger would open the bag carrying the airplanes.

I can hear Western Meadow Larks most of the spring at NearSys Station. The problem is trying to get close to them. Today I managed to get a picture by setting my camera to it's six power zoom and walking slowly.

Not as good of a picture as I wanted, but


position reports from the primary trackers were recieved, although far fewer from KD4STH-7 than KD4STH-9.

Flight NearSys 17C reached an altitude of 80,041 feet. It's last position report to enter the APRS system was around 5,000 feet AGL. Since the flight landed so far away in the mountains, it took a while to drive to the landing zone and locate the capsules. Rachel was monitoring APRS when KD4STH-7 transmitted a packet. The near spacecraft was then easily spotted 1,000 feet off the road.

Flight NearSys 17D reached an altitude of 84,668 feet and landed much closer to the launch site. It too landed in the mountains, but the roads in the landing zone are accessed by BIA roads.Google Maps was found to be inaccurate and the roads were not marked with signs. As a consequence, it took four tries to locate a road that actually took us to the landing site. When NearSys arrived, amatuer radio operator Tony Ross (K7EFS) and David Hamann were found at the near spacecraft. The recovery took so long only because of the nature of the roads in this part of Washington.

Overall, a good flight, but one that makes us aware we need better backup launch sites in Washington. Perferrably, one for east-west flights and one for north-south flights.

WATER-BLUE EYES: DOMINGO VILLAR

Water-Blue Eyes by Domingo Villar, translated from the Spanish by Martin Schifino, features one of the most horrific murder methods I have read, but despite this the short police procedural leaves you feeling you want to read more from this author. The plot has a nice twist at the end, but it is the evocative atmosphere, Galician location, humour, characters and culinarydetails that make this novel, and detective Leo Caldas, a fine addition to the variety of European crime fiction.

It was the winner of the Brigada 21 Prize for best first crime novel, and also the Sintagma Prize.

Inspector Leo Caldas takes part in a regular radio program, Patrol the Waves, which he hates because the phone calls concern the work of the city police rather than the homicide section. But this makes him well known in Vigo, and this celebrity does help when he introduces himself to potential witnesses.

He is called to attend a twenty floor high rise on Toralla island where Luis Reigosa, a young jazz saxophonist, has been found dead in his luxurious apartment. The body has horrific burns in the stomach and groin region, and Reigosa


had been tied by his wrists to the headboard of the bed.

Leo Caldas, and his subordinate Rafael Estevez, start an investigation that will lead them to jazz clubs, gay bars and involvement with Vigo's influential upper class.

Rafael Estevez is a hulking six foot five "bull in a china shop" from Zaragoza, who is finding it difficult to cope with the changeable Galician weather, the people and the steepness of the streets. He is a stern Aragonese, who loses his temper at the slightest hint of opposition, and has been banished to Vigo as a punishment for some previous incident.

'Is Estevez with you?

'Yes,' ratified Caldas. 'Shouldn't he have come?'

'He shouldn't have been born,' replied Soto and rang off.

There is a amusing confrontation when Estevez, after being stung by aweaver fish on his foot, takes his shoe and sock off in a gay bar, and has to fight off admirers offering him a foot massage.

Leo Caldas like Andrea Camilleri's Salvo Montalbano, is a man who enjoys fresh seafood, and wine, so it is doubly convenient that his father owns a vineyard, and that he lives near the Galician coast.

'I thought you wouldn't,' muttered Caldas, helping himself to a piece of potato and placing the sardine on top of it, so that the potato would soak up the grease and salt of the fish.

Author Domingo Villar writes scripts for film television and is also a radio food critic so it is no surprise that food plays such an important part in a Caldas investigation.

He'd gone for a small


to the successful chemistry created in the book.

I remember from our trip to Santiago del Compostela, a few years ago, reading the graffiti written in English:

'This is not Spain-Freedom for Galicia'.

Villar uses the contrast between the laid back local Caldas, at home in the environment, and the exiled Estevez totally stumped by the manners, food, and climate to emphasize the internal differences in Spain. A fascinating short novel which packs a lot into a mere 167 pages.

As a starter Leo Caldas ordered half a kilo of goose barnacles which he had reserved over the phone, and as a main course a huge sole he chose from the display counter.

I am definitely going to read the second book in the series, Death on a Galician Shore, when it ispublished in English next April.

THE HORNS OF A DILEMMA

What to read next?

After reading two Swedish door stops from Roslund and Helstrom [506 pages], and Leif G.W. Persson [551 pages], do I take a break from Northern European angst or read another more attractive Swedish author, whose book contains a mere 508 pages?

.....AND WINTER'S END

The plot begins with the apparent suicide of John Krassner, an unpleasant American journalist, who is writing a book "The Spy Who Went East" based on his even more unpleasant uncle's exploits in the CIA.

The eponymous spy is the Swedish Prime Minister, who is assassinated at the end of BSLAWE.

The plot of BSLAWE follows two separate timelines covering the secret police investigations of Krassner, and the investigation of his suicide by the


Stockholm police.

The rest of the book is commentary with a very large cast of characters appearing and disappearing at various intervals, and the narrative frequently halted by complex back stories.

There are accounts of numerous meetings between the unnamed special advisor to the Prime Minister, and Berg the head of the SePo [secret police] in which they talk a lot but little is decided.

One feature of the novel is the author's very dark, and sometimes self-deprecatory sense of humour.

Then Berg had started his climb towards the top of the police pyramid while Persson had played it safe and chosen to remain down below. Twenty years later, and in Persson's case twice as many pounds round the middle,.....

A real old time constable, thought Berg affectionately when he saw Persson's fatrear end disappearing through the door.

Those familiar with Swedish crime fiction will note the names Guillou and Marklund also are mentioned in the book.

I don't know whether Professor Persson is deliberately cultivating his image as an irascible old misogynist, but the behaviour of some of his characters especially Berg's obnoxious deputy Claes Waltin is interesting to say the least.

If the hair on her head were allowed to grow a little, she could be almost perfect, with two small braided pigtails. Little Jeanette aged thirteen........

Why can't he fuck like other people anymore? thought Assistant Detective Jeanette Eriksson, who this weekend was spending more time bent forward across his knees with her redder and redder backside straight up in the air than her lover, Police Superintendent Claes Waltin, was spending


between her legs.

The other main character Lars Johansson, head of the National Bureau of Criminal Investigation is a much more pleasant personality;

"What's he like? What do you mean?"

"I mean, what's he like as a detective?"

"He's the best ," said Berg. For he is, of course, he thought with surprise at the same moment he said it.

"What's he good at? The special adviser nodded at him to continue.

"At figuring out how things stand," said Berg.

Johansson stands almost alone as a competent policeman among the lazy, the incompetent, and the corrupt who serve in both branches of the police force. We read about the idiotic Stockholm chief constable and his ludicrous seminars on "The Scientific Detective", secret policemen who while on surveillance go off to buy burgers, the covering upthe other. Persson has such a very dark sense of humour, that I did feel a trifle guilty at times finding some of his material amusing.

The plot concerns the apparent suicide of an American journalist John Krassner, who probably jumped out of the 16th floor window of student accommodation in Stockholm. The story follows the two separate investigations of his past activities and his subsequent death alternating between two different timelines and threads. One investigation is run by SePo, the Secret Swedish State Police, whose operation is lead by Berg, and carried out by Waltin, who is a particularly unpleasant character.

He had spent the last thirty-six hours with Jeanette Eriksson, and they hadn't even set foot outside the door. With the exception of a few brief meals and


a few hours' sleep, he had for the most part screwing her the entire time, and everything had gone according to plan. Women were naturally submissive.

The other investigation is lead by Lars Martin Johansson, head of the National Bureau of Criminal Investigation, who is a much more nuanced and subtle character.

It became clear when they sat down at the table in her small kitchen that he didn't need to worry about the food and drink that he hadn't brought with him. Excellent assortment of pickled herring, gravlax, and smoked eel, an excellent potato casserole with just the right creaminess, golden-brown meatballs, and little sausages that sizzled as the hostess lifted them out of the oven. There was lots of beer and wine besides.

She must be rich too, thoughtJohansson, loading up another spoonful of scrambled eggs with finely chopped fresh chives. Nice to look at and fun to talk with. Prepares food like Aunt Jenny herself, motherly as well, patient, and......probably wealthy.

I was a little surprised in view of the author's close connection with the police, he has served as a professor at Sweden's National Police Board and an adviser to the Swedish Ministry of Justice, that he describes in detail the bigoted attitudes of members of the police. After all he is an establishment figure in comparison to investigative journalists Stieg Larsson, and Anders Roslund and ex -criminal Borge Hellstrom who have written so interestingly about the abuse of state power by the police.

Perhaps the attitudes of cops are the same the world over, and


Wayne Rooney after a night out on the tiles. The upper floor was being advertised for rent at £17,000 a year, which would leave the train station downstairs on its own.

The library is also a community hub with offices for the police, a benefits office, and a small cafe. The toilet facilities were clearly inadequate for use by large numbers of visitors; and this had been recognised because the staff had their own facility protected by a code entry system.

But my main criticism is that the library/hub is situated on a site which is isolated by a stream of fast traffic. The pedestrian crossing is situated at the point where the vehicles reach maximum speed, and an elderly person weighed down by a few books would need toman in the unit was pregnant.

THREE SECONDS: ROSLUND-HELLSTROM

This blog is now dormant but you can read all the old posts and my new posts at Crime Scraps Review at:

http://crimescraps2.wordpress.comThree Seconds by Anders Roslund and Borge Hellstrom, smoothly translated from the Swedish by Kari Dickson, is a tense exciting thriller featuring two main characters.

Three Seconds is the fifth book by award winning journalist Anders Roslund and ex-prisoner and drug user Borge Hellstrom, one of the founders of KRIS [criminals return into society] and it won Swedish crime novel of the year in 2009.

I quite expected Hercule Poirot to appear, because this was all very Agatha Christie. If you ignore the modern cars and the satellite dish on the thatched cottage.

FAR AWAY COUNTRIES

...... a quarrel in a far away country between people of whom we know nothing.

Neville Chamberlain- Broadcast 27 September 1938

...a nation with five hundred criminal groups that fought every day for a slice of the domestic Polish capital cake, eighty-five even larger criminal groups with international connections, police who frequently took part in armed battles, and a nation that raked in more than five hundred billion


kronor every year from the production of synthetic drugs.

Ewert Grens remembered the smell of tulips.

Three Seconds: Anders Roslund and Borge Hellstrom

Ali Karim has a two part interview with the authors of Three Seconds, Roslund and Hellstrom at The Rap Sheet, part one and part two.

From the informative interview:

Ali Karim: Poland has been the centre of some of the best grade illegal amphetamine production.

Hellstrom: I have known for years that Poland is both a transit country and also a land of many amphetamine factories.

STORMAKSTIDEN: SWEDISH GOLDEN AGE?

Bernadette comments there is no "next Stieg Larsson" but a group of great writers all with there own different styles, story telling abilities, personalities and sense of humour. I totally agree.

I am now engrossed in reading Three Seconds by Andersweapon, in his car; so it looks like an open and shut case.

But Meelo claims to have been in his motel room at the time of the murder, because "Oscar" told him to stay there, and then he tells a bizarre story of being set up as the patsy in the case.

Homicide detectives, Mark Bergman and John "Doonie" Dunegan are inclined to believe Meelo, especially when the headless body of a possible defence witness turns up in Indiana.

Wilson Willetts had entered a design for the new LAFAM [Los Angeles Fine Arts Museum] and was in competition with two other architects backed by wealthy and very influential people quite capable of arranging such a complicated set up.

AFFAIRS OF STATE: DOMINIQUE MANOTTI

I finished reading Dominique Manotti's superb thriller Affairs of State last night, and it reminded me of the TV series Spiral in its portrayal of the way the French business and political elite are protected by a network of favours owed, and a web of secret arrangements. It also reminded me of reading accounts of the French Mutiny of 1917 when it was noted that the biggest social gulf between officers and men was apparently not in the armies of Imperial Britain or Imperial Russia, but in the army of Republican France.

I am not sure how true that was but after watching two series of Spiral, and reading Dominique Manotti, 'liberte, egalite, fraternite' does sound rather hollow.

'.......because it's not going to last long.to shake the pyramid of corruption, and an intriguing character who I hope will feature in future books.

And Francois Bornand, a great womaniser, close advisor to the President, pro-American, fiercely anti-Communist, and a man for whom the terms, amoral and corrupt are far too benign.

In a flashback to 1943:

He follows Thomas with his eyes and says nothing. Vichy, the new homeland, building the Europe of tomorrow, destroying Communism, the enemy of Western civilisation, is he the only person who believes in it?

Dominique Manotti, ably aided by her translators Ros Schwartz and Amanda Hopkinson, has written a sharp indictment of the French political elite and proved that a complex plot, with well drawn characters and real excitement can be generated within a shortish [by modern standards] novel.

It is interesting


that the novel was written in 2001, about events in 1985, contains a strategic lesson within its pages that possibly should have been obeyed by other nations.

'France is not Iran's enemy......'

'That won't be sufficient.'

'.......but in the Middle East, the age-old balance between Arabs and Persians must be maintained.'

LIGHT BUT NOT LIGHTWEIGHT

Away in the beautiful English countryside for a couple of days I had to put aside the bulky 500 page exciting blockbuster I was reading and take with me a much lighter two hundred page thriller, Affairs of State by Dominique Manotti.

Manotti's Affairs of State was translated by Ros Schwartz and Amanda Hopkinson, the same team that won the 2008 International Dagger with Lorraine Connection.

Dominique Manotti, a professor of nineteenth-century economic history in Paris, paintsremedy that situation by reading Five Little Pigs, which was named by John Curran, author of Agatha Christie's Secret Notebooks, as one of her ten best novels.

Caroline Crale was tried and convicted of the murder of her husband, painter Amyas Crale, but because of mitigating circumstances the sentence was commuted to penal servitude for life. She died only a year after the trial.

Sixteen years later her daughter, Carla Lemarchant, returns to England from Canada and asks Hercule Poirot to investigate the murder. When Carla was twenty one she had been given a letter her mother had written before her death insisting on her innocence.

If Caroline did not kill Amyas Crale there were five other "little pigs" who could have done it.

The suspects:

Philip Blake, a close friend of Amyas,


a stockbroker, who went to market.

Meredith Blake, an amateur herbalist, who stayed at home.

Elsa Greer, a three time divorcee, now Lady Dittisham, who had her roast beef.

Cecilia Williams, the devoted governess, who had none.

Angela Warren, the disfigured sister, who cried all the way home.

Poirot, interviews the barristers, solicitors and police superintendent, before going on to speak to the five suspects, and persuade them all to write their own accounts of the events that occurred sixteen years previously. The novel is beautifully structured, as Christie produces what amounts to a character study of each of five very different suspects, and then in a classic denouement Poirot reconstructs the murder leading the reader to the wrong conclusion, before unmasking the real perpetrator.

On the evidence of Five Little Pigs, written inand, most recently, Bar La Grassa. Castillon's business partner is Conrado Badilla, a friend from Sonora, Mexico, with whom he had moved to Minnesota about 10 years ago. Castillon does the cooking with the help of his cousin, Fernando Arnanda, while Badilla runs the register and helps customers. The Global Market already counts several Mexican restaurants as tenants, but Sonora Grill distinguishes itself by adding influences from Spain and South America and submitting traditional dishes to a gourmet chef's makeover.

Shrimp Caramelos: red tempura shrimp with cilantro aioli and cabbage in taco form

Details

Sonora is a state in Mexico's northwest corner, bordering Arizona, and seafood is prominent in its cuisine, due to the lengthy coastline. But there's also a lot of cattle raising in the area, so cowboy


vittles—beef cooked over an open flame—are abundant. Sonora Grill's menu consists of four main sections: pincho meat skewers, bocadillo sandwiches, Sonora-style tacos or caramelos, and salads. Marinated pork, beef, and chicken are all available in the first three sections, supplemented by other proteins, including tempura shrimp, turkey chorizo, and tongue.

Pincho is a term for bar snacks used in Spain's Basque country, but the dishes are also found in many other Spanish-speaking countries, such as Puerto Rico. They're small, sharable bites similar to tapas, except served on a pincho, Spanish for "spike." The grill's tender bites of chicken leg-and-thigh meat have a smoky flavor and a tangy mojo verde marinade. When it comes to beef, Sonorans tend to favor flavorful cuts like skirt steak, but the skewered chunks servedseems like an afterthought, especially compared to Sonora's bocadillos, which use glossy-topped buns from another MGM tenant, the lauded Salty Tart. The freshly baked dough is soft but sturdy and tastes as sweet and rich as challah—it's an ideal sandwich bun and sets a new standard in the category.

In northwest Mexico, and across the border in Arizona, hotdogueros vendors peddling Sonoran-style hot dogs are a common sight. But the griddled dogs, wrapped in a spiral of crispy bacon and stuffed with Mexican condiments, have only recently become hip in the Twin Cities, showing up last spring on Barrio's food truck. Castillon's take on his homeland's hot dog is an excellent one. First, he makes his own wiener from ground pork, spices, and salt, skipping the usual preservatives (almost


combinations, such as arugula and pickled red onions dressed with a creamy anchovy dressing, are as unexpected as they are meticulously prepared.

Recently, Sonora started serving breakfasts, including fluffy pancakes made with blue corn flour and chipotle chilaquiles—fried tortilla chips and scrambled eggs paired with a side of turkey chorizo. (Chorizo is typically made with beef or pork, but Badilla's mother came up with the ground turkey version as a lower-fat alternative, which works just as well.) Sonora also makes its own horchata, which is blessedly not too sweet, as well as hibiscus tea, or agua de flor de Jamaica, a tart, cranberry-like drink that they blend with a little fresh-squeezed orange juice.

The restaurant usually offers a weekly special, which allows Castillon a little more creativity. In the pastGlainach-Ferlach Airport

out of analysts’ predictions at premier events.

It wasn’t until two weeks ahead of Manila that their investment paid off, but it paid off in a very big way. They took a deep run at EPICENTER, and though they fell short of the Grand Finals, they were the first team to take a game off of unstoppable juggernaut Newbee — the undisputed winner of the Chinese roster shuffle, who came into the EPICENTER bracket on a record-shattering 29-game win streak. OG not only managed to end their streak, they took an entire series over Newbee to knock them down to the Loser’s Bracket, and pushed them to three games when they rematched in the Loser’s Bracket Finals.

Almost 35 years ago, the 1982 Mazda 254i Le Mans racer disappeared.

The car, based on the RX-7 of the time, was one of two designed and entered in the legendary 24 hour endurance race. After a poor result there, it was thought that the company scrapped both cars in shame. But, against all odds, one 254i has been unearthed.

See, the 254i wasn’t immediately done away with—it just kind of faded from public view. After an unfortunate Le Mans showing that saw a disappointing DNF, Mazda took their cars back home to compete in the JPSC series, according to japanesenostalgiccar.com. One car was painted pink. The other car was painted yellow. One was destroyed in a crash. The other was never seen again after the 1984 Fuji


1000km.

At least, until now. Late in 2018, the pink car—the former No. 83 that competed in Le Mans—was discovered in one of Japan’s remote western prefectures.

The chief mechanic at Mazdaspeed at the time, a fellow named Tachimoto-san, was able to confirm that the car was legit after checking out its brake system and rear suspension.

An even more detailed inspection revealed that, under its new layer of white paint, there are layers of pink and gold paint—the two colors the car competed with in Le Mans and JPSC.

The car has been commissioned by Mazda to undergo a restoration, according to bestcarweb.jp. The hope is to keep the car as original as possible and, possibly, to enter it in some classic car competitions.

Such exclusive privilege shall not be granted to the successful bidder unless he shall furnish a bond satisfactory to the Board of Commissioners of the Village of Ridgewood in the sum of not less than $5,000, the condition of which shall be that he or it shall perform the services set forth in his or its bid for a sum not in excess of the amount quoted in such bid and that he or it shall comply with the rules and regulations of the Board of Health of the Village of Ridgewood, in connection with the removal of such garbage, offal, decomposing solid, fluid substance, ashes, rubbish

An exclusive right so created is not open to the objection that it is a monopoly."
These authorities show the generally favorable temper of the law toward exclusive scavenger licenses as a reasonable exercise of police power, and with them in mind we return to a consideration of the McKim case. The impression to be gathered from the opinion of the Supreme Court is that the basic vice of the South Orange ordinance resided in the absence ofburning or other disposition of the garbage on the premises, not inconsistent with the local health regulations. Moreover, where the governing body contracts directly with a scavenger, the sum agreed to be paid for the service goes into the budget and is represented in the tax rate to which the property owners are subject. Thus a property owner who does not use the scavenger at all participates in the payment of the burden assumed by the municipality on the basis of his tax assessment just the same as one who does use the service. Under the license system such a property owner would have no financial obligation.
There would appear to be no essential difference between this system for payment and one which required the householder or hotel or


Earlier this week, Ilias Panagiotaros, a heavy-set Golden Dawn MP said these words during a rally in Athens:

"If Chrysi Avgi [Golden Dawn] gets into parliament [as polls predict], it will carry out raids on hospitals and kindergartens and it will throw immigrants and their children out on the street so that Greeks can take their place." He went on to threaten fellow MPs with violence if they voice opinions on issues of national interest that his party does not agree to.

There are laws in Greece that prohibit hate speech and the threat of force against people or groups of people, of course. But, as usually happens here, the objectionable legality of this outburst was ignored.

It was the latest in a series of grim incidents initiated by Golden Dawnmembers, a group of mostly young men that combine hate speech with a swagger familiar among nightclub bouncers. As the country faces the worst crisis of its modern history, political discourse has sunk to their level. How did this happen?

Just three years ago, the far-right Golden Dawn party was a nonentity. An outlandish group modelled after similar neo-Nazi parties of Europe, they caused more bewilderment than fear. Their anger seemed inexplicable and appalling, but also inconsequential. In the 2009 election they got 0.29% of the popular vote, which, in the tiny electorate of Greece, translates to less than 20,000 votes in total.

Then, after the economy crumbled, bailouts were issued, memoranda were signed and the Greek political system imploded, something changed: on the 6 May election, Golden Dawn got


almost 7% of the vote (and 21 seats in parliament). More than 440,000 people voted for them.

That's a lot of new neo-Nazis in just three short years.

But of course, they were always there. Before May, those at the far-right edge of the Greek political spectrum were assimilated in the "regular" right. Laos, a party with an anti-immigration, nationalistic agenda similar to Golden Dawn's, but wrapped in a less-scary populist package, got 5.6% of the vote at the 2009 polls. Three years later, after alienating its supporters by voting for the much-maligned second memorandum (the agreement that secured the 2012 bailout), it only got 2.9%. Many of the defectors naturally fled to Golden Dawn.

Add to that the ultra-conservatives among the 1.1 million voters that fled New Democracy, the majorIn this way his novel is a refutation of those who argue that natural scientific inquiry cannot apply to areas that stand outside the inferences displayed in this novel in our daily existence. As The Hound shows the activity of science and daily life are not necessarily that distant from each other. Indeed science grew out of the daily activity of people in the maintenance and development of their struggle for existence.

Clearly Arthur Conan Doyle has been heavily influenced by the Gothic genre of Edgar Allen Poe. There is in Conan Doyle’s novel a curious yet ambiguous relationship between the scientific and the supernatural. Some of the characters in the novel are of the view that the cause of the deaths in the novel have their source in


work in the novel as to the meaning of being. However it is presented in a more metaphorical form – art.

The portrayal of the prehistoric architecture and its people in a mystical context adds further to the atmospherics of the novel. Yet again there is the suggestion that the prehistoric people who dwelled on the original sites had a richer and more mysterious relationship to the moor and nature generally. They represented freedom and were liberated from the alienation of the controlled city. In the novel the cultural distance between us and them is presented as vast. Yet through the novel the author may be suspected of hinting that the moor is seeking to convey to the reader the mystical nature of these prehistoric ancestors as a meanssaid. "Right now American innovators are fleeing to other countries because, ironically, it's easy enough to get the socialist Europeans to approve a new drug than it is our bureaucratic FDA."

Cruz, like several other Republican hopefuls in this election cycle, heard from an audience member who appeared to question the origins of President Barack Obama, who was born in Hawaii to an American mother and a Kenyan father. "Is there anything in the Constitution," the questioner asked to some laughter, "that the new president can deport the last president?"

"You know, there's not," Cruz said, after a pause. "But I can tell you this. On January 20th, 2017, when I rescind every single one of Barack Obama's illegal and unconstitutional executive actions, he might just well self-deport."

Cruz's own origins


came under question from a member of the audience, who asked about the constitutional requirement that presidents be natural born citizens. Cruz explained that while he was born in Calgary, Alberta, he was a US citizen because he was born to an American mother. "I have never breathed a breath of air," he said, "when I wasn't an American citizen."

Cruz's two-day New Hampshire campaign trip also included stops in Nashua, Deerfield, Salem and Wolfeboro; he also spoke at a forum in Hooksett co-hosted by the conservative advocacy group Cornerstone Action. Former Pennsylvania US Senator Rick Santorum and former Hewlett-Packard CEO Carly Fiorina spoke at the forum as well.open space. In 1964, the county’s General Plan said that growth should cluster along major highway and rail corridors leading from the District, and that the spaces in between should be preserved.

In 1980, the county made it official with the 93,000-acre Agricultural Reserve, which covers one-third of the county will remain farmland and nature forever. (Combine that with the county’s 34,000-acre park system, and nearly half of the county is open space.)

That decision has lasting effects today. Montgomery County residents benefit from an abundance of open space for recreation, enjoying nature, and of course, keeping our air and water clean.

In order to preserve this open space, we have to accommodate growth elsewhere in the county, particularly in our town centers like Silver Spring, Bethesda, and Rockville. People who

The longest recorded piece of graffiti was painted by a
student in the toilets of his college at Changsha, China
in 1915. It consisted of over 4000 characters criticising
his teachers and the state of Chinese society.

After completing this masterpiece the student handed
