RETURN TO MOAB, 2039 AD REDUX
I don't know what made me do it. Some kind of grim, masochistic satisfaction,
I suppose. To prove to myself, at least, that it was as bad and weird
and crazy as I'd feared. That I hadn't been a lifelong cynic for no
damn reason at all. Now I know. Now I know that everything we'd feared
was here. And ahead of schedule.
I moved away from the United States in 2006 and relocated on a small
island chain in the South Pacific called Funafuti. I was a fool to go
there, however, and had already been warned. Global warming and rising
sea levels jeopardized the island atoll as far back as 1999.
Canton Daily Ledger: Fulton County Guide
Well, we may not find too many truly "wild" places but there are a few places where we can escape. In this piece we will highlight some camping areas. In addition there are plenty of other places in the county that offer a retreat. And with the slight possibility that some of our public areas could close, some of the places we speak of can become even more precious.
Let's begin with the nearest to Canton residents: Canton Lake. The lake campground is becoming a popular once again. Numerous weekends have found it pretty full. Fishing in the lake is indeed improving and this could be one of the determining factors to the rise in campers.
McPherson Sentinel: News Column
A bright orange backpack, an occasionally scruffy beard and assorted T-shirts all identify the newest adventurer and teacher to Walk Across America.
Don Vermilyea, a native of West Virginia, began his walk on Feb. 2, 2002, in Tucson, Ariz.
He has two missions. One is to visit every Church of the Brethren that invites him, and the second, which he finds harder and harder, is to reach out to people and teach them of the gospels and Jesus.
Vermilyea has visited one-fifth of the United States so far, and in every state he walks through, he aspires to "plant a seed" and share God's love with every one who will listen.
Seattle Weekly: News: Did they get their man? by Rick Anderson
JUDY RIDGWAY is one of the few people left who thinks her husband isn't
responsible for the 49 Green
River murders. Judy, 57, and Gary Ridgway, who observed his third month and 53rd birthday in King County Jail last week, had what she calls a happy 17-year marriage. "He was the best thing that ever happened to me," she said the other day.
But on Friday, Nov. 30, 2001, King County Sheriff Dave Reichert announced that authorities had arrested "the" Green River killer.
kudos to Dan!

Spending Time With the Democratic Women's Club
By Norma Jean Fazenbaker
Clinton
During the last week in October, I spent three days in Ocean City with the United Democratic Women's Club at their convention for all the Maryland Districts. It is a lot of fun being with women who feel the same way about the Democratic party. We are all hoping that we can get our party members riled up for the next two elections so we can take back our state and our country. I am asking all of my readers who are good Democrats to make sure that you are registered and that you vote.
Traffic, privacy changes made to Greene park plan
chambersburg@herald-mail.com
SCOTLAND, Pa. - With a few significant changes to address traffic safety concerns and the privacy of adjacent property owners, the Greene Township Board of Supervisors hopes to approve a final plan Monday, Feb. 2, for a 53-acre township park in the north end of the village of Scotland.
On Thursday night, the board and members of the recreation study committee looked over the latest of four versions of the master plan for the park, which has an estimated price tag of up to $3.8 million. The plan was presented by Ann E. Yost, a landscape architect with the York, Pa., firm of Yost Strodoski Mears.
Hiker disoriented by storm
Todd Pollert returned to the base camp in the Rocky Peak area Tuesday morning. He was about 10 minutes ahead of a Routt County Search and Rescue crew sent to find him, said Search and Rescue member Darrel Levingston.
Pollert left about 11 a.m. Monday for what he intended to be an hour-and-a-half hike on the west side of Rocky Peak. When he had not returned to his base camp, on the east side of Rocky Peak, by about 7 p.m., his camping partner called his wife, who then called the Routt County Search and Rescue, Levingston said.
Pollert was well prepared to spend the night in the cold, Levingston said.

Buckley still feels the pain
Nathan Buckley checked himself into Vimy House in Kew four days after the grand final with an infected, dangerously swollen knee and an injury above the shoulders that intravenous antibiotics could not fix.
It was a good thing that few knew where he was. For the first day, Buckley confessed, he wallowed and on the second day, he started to think. About everything. Life, football, love and friendship in no particular order.
