PHUKET, THAILAND, November 19, 2010 (Press-News.org) Those wishing to register to take part in the Tucson Marathon 2010 are still able to do so, and can still register online if they wish.
It is winter in Tucson at the time of the Marathon, with temperatures ranging in the 30s at the start time, heading up to around 65 to 70 Fahrenheit by around 11 am. The marathon course is generally downhill, with the exception of a few small hills located around the point of the 1st and 10th miles, and some rolling hills and inclines located between the 2nd and 5th miles and between the 10th and 13th miles.
The marathon begins at the Old West historical town of Oracle, winds through the desert (on actual paved roads, however) and finally reaches its conclusion at the Coronado Middle School, which is situated just off of E. Wilds Road. The course is widely regarded by experienced marathon runners as both one of the easiest courses in which to try and gain a personal best time and one of the prettiest and most scenic such courses to run.
Lek Boonlert, the Head of Marketing for DirectRooms.com, says that Damascus hotels will inevitably be busier during the lead-up to and aftermath of the marathon. He advises: "It's a popular event, so get your running shoes on and book a room early."

Tarps Plus Helps in West Sumatra Recovery Efforts
2010-11-19
On October 25, a very large tsunami pounded several of the Mentawai Islands in West Sumatra. An earthquake that struck just south of the small island with a magnitude of 7.2 was the cause. However, there was no warning, and only a few even realized it was coming until the three meter wave was seen coming. Now, as people are recovering in shock, supplies such as food, water, clothing, and items such as the tarp desperately needed.
The wave killed at least 300 people, while more than 400 are still missing, and hundreds were seriously injured. Those who are left behind ...
Gulf Oil Rig Disaster
2010-11-19
Injury attorneys are sometimes compared to the Knights of the Round Table, who fought for the weak and the underdogs. The explosion of a BP oil rig in the Gulf of Mexico last month looks to provide a worthy jousting match.
The catastrophe that apparently killed 11 workers and caused millions of gallons of oil to spill into U.S. coastal waters horrified the world. While responsibility for the tragedy remains a subject of debate, its impact is not. The ultimate costs have been estimated anywhere from $2 billion to $14 billion.
Who Has Been Affected by the BP Oil Disaster?

Approaching Holiday Season Means Increased DUI Patrols in Illinois
2010-11-19
As the winter holiday season approaches, Lake County area police will be stepping up their DUI enforcement efforts throughout the county. If you are going to be out drinking, the best way to ensure that you are not ensnared by these efforts is to take a cab, use a designated driver or make other arrangements to get home.
To pull you over for suspected DUI, the police first must have probable cause to do so. In practical terms, this usually happens when the police witness you breaking a traffic law, like speeding or driving well below the speed limit, weaving in and out ...

Richland County Coroner Questions South Carolina DNA Evidence Law
2010-11-19
South Carolina passed a DNA preservation law two years ago to reduce the chance that evidence could be prematurely destroyed before a criminal defendant's legal appeals had been exhausted. But the strict wording of the law has caused Richland County's coroner to withhold cremation permits due to uncertainty, and he recently expressed worry that he may need to postpone burials.
The use of DNA in criminal investigations is a popular feature of television crime shows, and it has had a profound effect on criminal investigations involving murder, assault, sex crimes and other ...

This November the state closed the Orchard Court Nursing Home for failing to comply with safety regulations. The state may potentially revoke the licenses of six other long-term care facilities.
