Alcatraz Island is an island located in the San Francisco Bay, 1.5 miles (2.4 km) offshore from San Francisco, California, United States.  Often referred to as “The Rock”, the small island was developed with facilities for a lighthouse, a military fortification, a military prison, and a Federal Bureau of Prisons federal prison until 1963.  Beginning in November 1969, the island was occupied for more than 19 months by a group of American Indians from San Francisco, who were part of a wave of Indian activism across the nation, with public protests through the 1970s. Later, in 1972, Alcatraz became a national recreation area and received designation as a National Historic Landmark in 1986.

Today, the island’s facilities are operated by the National Park Service as part of the Golden Gate National Recreation Area; it is open to tours. Visitors can reach the island by ferry ride from Pier 33, near Fisherman’s Wharf in San Francisco. In 2008 the nation’s first hybrid propulsion ferry started serving the island. Alcatraz has been featured in many movies, TV shows, cartoons, books, comics, and games.

Woodies were produced in the greatest numbers before the end of the 1950s, before safety regulations would effectively have made them obsolete.

In 1950, Plymouth discontinued their woodie station wagon. Buick manufactured its last woodie in 1953. By 1955, only Ford and Mercury offered a woodie, evoking real wood with other materials including steel, plastics and DiNoc (a vinyl product). Ford offered its wood models as the Country Squire trim level in numerous model ranges from the 1940s to the 1990s.

The British Motor Corporation (BMC) offered the Morris Minor Traveller (1953-71) with wood structural components and painted aluminum infill panels — the last true mass-produced woodie. Morris’ subsequent Mini Traveller (1961-69) employed steel infill panels and faux wood structural members.

Lyrics to Flaming Heart :  M. Ward
Well I’m trying hard to pass the time but I just got more time to kill
You know the flaming heart can’t get his fill
But the flaming heart will try and try as he will

And the flaming eyes I had are gone, they went out with the thrill
You know the flaming heart can’t get his fill
But the flaming heart will try and try as he will

Oh, I got a flaming heart
Oh, I got a flaming heart
I gotta roll like a tire
I’ve got a love that’s mighty like a rose

And the flaming stars I had are gone
They burned out over the hill
You know the flaming heart can’t get his fill
But the flaming heart will try and try as he will

Oh, I got a flaming heart
Oh, I got a flaming heart
I gotta roll like a tire
I’ve got a love that’s mighty like a rose

A possum (plural form: possums) is any of about 69 small to medium-sized arboreal marsupial species native to Australia, New Guinea, and Sulawesi (and introduced to New Zealand and China). The name derives from their resemblance to the opossums of the Americas. (The name is from Algonquian wapathemwa.) Possum is also used in North America as a short form of Opossum.

Possums are quadrupedal diprotodont marsupials with long tails. The smallest possum, indeed the smallest diprotodont marsupial, is the Little Pygmy Possum with an adult head-body length of 70mm and a weight of 10g. The largest is the Bear Cuscus that may exceed 7kg. Possums are typically nocturnal and at least partially arboreal. The various species inhabit most vegetated habitats and a few species have adjusted well to urban settings. Diets range from generalist herbivores or omnivores (the Common Brushtail possum) to specialist browsers of eucalyptus (Greater Glider), insectivores (Mountain Pygmy Possum) and nectar-feeders (Honey Possum).

Mandiri Customers Latest to Fall Victim of ATM Withdrawal Scam
The ATM theft scam plaguing Indonesia continued on Monday, with several customers of state-owned PT Bank Mandiri reporting to police that their accounts had been robbed of millions of rupiah through illegal ATM withdrawals.

Limbong, 53, from Medan, said that he suspected theft after he received a text message from the bank notifying him of a cash withdrawal.

“I received several messages from the bank within five minutes, informing me of a Rp 1.75 million ($187.25) withdrawal,” Limbong said, adding that the got the messages at 10p.m. on Sunday night just as he was arriving in Jakarta to attend a training course.

“I immediately called Mandiri to block my account,” he said.

Limbong’s colleague, Zulkifli, 50, said he lost Rp 70 million, while Soemadi Saiman, 60, said he lost Rp 90 million.

Soemadi said he discovered the theft after printing his account statement and saw that Rp 90 million had been withdrawn between December and Friday.

“My money had been taken in Rp 3 million to Rp 4 million withdrawals,” Soemadi said.

Bank Mandiri told Soemadi the withdrawals were all made from an ATM in Tebet, South Jakarta. However, Soemadi said he had never withdrawn any money from that ATM.

Soemadi filed a complaint to the bank.

“But they seemed to put the blame on me somehow,” he said. “Now I’m afraid to keep my money in a bank.” .

Moehardomo, 63, a retired public works employee, said he had lost a total of Rp 4.8 million through illegal withdrawals from his Bank Mandiri account.

“There were four withdrawals, each of Rp 1.2 million,” he said, adding that they were made on Jan. 5 and Jan. 6.

Moehardomo said he discovered the missing money when trying to convert his savings account into a time deposit.

“I asked that my transactions be printed and was shocked to find that the balance was lower,” he said.

Moehardomo said he was even more surprised to find that the withdrawals were made through other banks’ ATMs, despite the fact that he only used Bank Mandiri ATMs.

Moehardomo said he had now moved all his funds into a time-deposit. “I hope the rest of my money is safe if I put it in a time deposit,” he said.

Jakarta Police said they had stepped up patrols at several ATM locations deemed unsafe.

“Of course, we coordinated with the banks. We will also patrol high-risk areas,” spokesperson Sr. Comr. Boy Rafli Amar said.

Banks should have boosted the security of their databases, Boy said.

“So far [security of most ATMs] is covered only with CCTV cameras,” he said, adding that police will evaluate the most frequently visited ATM locations.

Police are now holding 13 suspects in custody for various ATM-related crimes in Jakarta and East Kalimantan and are investigate the possibility that more ATM thieves are still on the loose.

The National Police on Sunday said they had yet to confirm whether the suspects were linked in any way, or tied to the recent wave of illegal ATM withdrawals in Bali. “We will investigate, and please give us time,” National Police deputy spokesman Brig. Gen. Sulistyo Ishak said.

“We also need the public to check their accounts and report to us if their money was stolen.”

People don’t like to carry cash for fear of being robbed, but then if you go to use your ATM card someone gains access to your account and robs you. This license plate tin sign is to put some rumor back in your life.
