ev On The Red Line"

Two in a row, everybody knows
At the green light you rev it on the red line
Been waitin’ all week to get my wheels on the street
Get my hands on the wheel, slide down in the seat

She’s wearin’ new colors and runnin’ pretty good
I got four hundred horses tucked under the hood
But there’s no need to panic, it’s under control
We’re aerodynamic and ready to roll

Rev on the red line
You’re on your own
Rev on the red line
Just let it go

Runnin’ all night on Lake Avenue
It’s a piece of cake
If you know what to do
You’ve got to lose a few
‘Til the stakes get high
When the odds are right
You just blow by

And make no mistake, there’s women who just wait
For the man and machine with the best time

Rev on the red line
You’re on your own
Feels like a lifetime
But soon you’ll know

Wasn’t long ago I could’ve lost my wheels
Had to outrun the law, it was no big deal
I guess they had a grudge, they were hot on my tracks
I had to pay off the judge to get my license back
Now I need to pin those needles, got to feel that heat
Hear my motor screamin’ while I’m tearin’ up the street

Rev on the red line
You’re on your own
Rev on the red line
Just let it go

Rev on, rev on
Rev on, rev on

Don’t think I’ll ever learn to slow down
Rev on, you’ll still be here and I’ll be gone
Rev on, rev on

CNMI To Launch Public Bus Service In Saipan

US Department of Interior funds public transportation effort

By Cherrie Anne E. Villahermosa

SAIPAN, CNMI (Marianas Variety, April 14, 2016) – The Commonwealth Office of Transit Authority will soon launch a public, medium-size bus that will ply the Garapan-Middle Road-NMC-Koblerville-Beach Road route.

Funding for the bus amounts to $344,293 and will come from the U.S. Department of the Interior.

Diego B. Songsong, COTA’s community planner and Title VI coordinator, said they are now conducting a bidding process for the bus which will also cater to persons with disabilities.

In addition, he said they will designate bus stop signs and drop-off and pick-up areas for passengers.

Songsong said things are still at the planning stage, including how much they will charge those who use the bus.

Funding for the bus stops will come from a different agency, he said, adding that they are working with the Department of Public Works to identify possible sources.

Special Assistant for Public Transportation Alfreda P. Camacho said the pilot project is supported by Gov. Ralph Torres and Lt. Gov. Victor Hocog.

"Fixed-route transit is an essential service," she said. "It fulfills many community needs and helps our island meet a number of important public-policy objectives. In addition to these community benefits, spending federal funds on transit contributes to economic activity."

Camacho added, "This is just the beginning of a bigger picture for public transportation in the CNMI. We are happy that it is to be realized soon because we want our community to embrace this project and from there we will be able to assess and implement rules on how this service will work for the community. Basically this is good news for the community as we want more accessibility. More students will be able to go to school and more parents will be able to go to work if we have this public transportation. I am passionate about this project because I know this will help our community and improve the quality of life of the people."

She said COTA submitted its funding request to the CNMI Office of Grants Management on Feb. 17, 2016 and they received the good news in March.

Camacho expressed appreciation for the support of the governor and the Office of Grants Management.

COTA’s funding was just one of several grants with a total amount of $1.4 million approved by Interior for the CNMI.

Administrator for Grants Management Epi Cabrera said $1.4 million is a "remarkable amount."

"We are very fortunate to receive these grants and now the CNMI can begin moving forward on much needed projects. Our office is now looking forward to submitting Empowering Insular Communities (EIC) grants before the end of the month and continuing to push for grants that will benefit our community," he said in a statement.

Other Interior grants for the CNMI included $150,000 for the Department of Fire and Emergency Management Services to purchase an ambulance; and $255,578 for the Department of Commerce "to establish an online portal to streamline government services for residents in the territory. The online portal will facilitate the provision of social services, tax e-filing, business license and tax filing, and driver’s license issuance and renewal. The portal will serve as a virtual one-stop help center for the CNMI government."

In “Star Wars I: The Phantom Menace,” Liam Neeson and Ewan McGregor play Jedis trying to end a trade dispute — and more! (KEITH HAMSHERE/AP)
Even if you can make the Kessel run in less than 12 parsecs, you’ll still likely need this handy primer on the basic chronology of the "Star Wars" saga now that "Rogue One" is about to hit theaters.

‘Episode 1: The Phantom Menace’

The seeds for the eventual rise of the evil Empire are sown in a seemingly routine place: a trade dispute between the Republic and the Trade Federation. Two Jedi, the keepers of peace and justice, are dispatched to negotiate the dispute, but (wait for it) it’s a trap! They end up barely escaping with their lives, though they do meet R2-D2, who saves their lives. They end up on remote Tatooine, where they meet slave boy Anakin Skywalker and his protocol droid C3PO. Jedi Qui-Gon Jinn senses the Force in Anakin – and believes he’s the "Chosen One" who will bring balance to the Force. There’s a podrace and Anakin is freed. Qui-Gon wants to train Anakin, but the Jedi Council knows something is up with this boy and rejects it. But he helps the Republic win a battle against the Trade Federation so the Council lets Obi-Wan Kenobi take him as his apprentice.

‘Episode 2: Attack of the Clones’


In “Star Wars II: Attack of the Clones,” Hayden Christensen plays Anakin Skywalker, who falls in love and war with Natalie Portman’s Sen. Padme Amidala. (INDUSTRIAL LIGHT & MAGIC/AP)
Anakin is older now, but just as bad an actor. The weird trade dispute has grown to a full-scale revolt against the Republic. Anakin is assigned to protect Republic loyalist Sen. Padme Amidala, and they fall in love. Meanwhile, Obi-Wan discovers that a Jedi master has ordered the creation of an army of clones based on a single bounty hunter, Jango Fett, whom Obi-Wan determines is the assassin trying to kill Padme – though he does not know why. He also has no idea why the Jedi have ordered up a clone army. Meanwhile, Anakin’s mom is murdered and he freaks out, channeling the dark side that everyone knows he has in him. The full-scale revolt against the Republic is being led by Count Dooku, a former Jedi, who has built his own droid army. Under pressure, the Galactic Senate votes the Chancellor emergency powers, which (wait for it!) is also a trap! The two armies battle and the Jedi and the Clones barely win. The movie ends with the revelation that Dooku, the revolt, the clones and the droids are all being controlled by an evil Sith Lord – who is actually the Chancellor!

‘Episode 3: Revenge of the Sith’


In “"Star Wars III: Revenge of the Sith,” Hayden Christensen turns into Darth Vader. (AP)
The Chancellor has been captured by a revolt leader General Grievous, but Obi-Wan and Anakin rescue him heroically. The Chancellor, seeking to draw out Anakin’s dark side, demands that Anakin assassinate Dooku, which he does. Anakin is dealing with his demons, including visions of Padme dying in childbirth. The Council declines to elevate him to Master status, so the Chancellor puts him on the Jedi Council as his representative (spy). He also brags to Anakin that he knows how to harness the dark side to cheat death — though you can’t learn that from any (dismissively) Jedi. But (wait for it!), it’s a trap. Anakin eventually figures out that the Chancellor is a Sith Lord, but when the Jedi try to arrest him, Anakin comes to his aid because he still wants to save Padme from the visions of death. The Chancellor makes Anakin his apprentice and dubs him Darth Vader. He also orders him to kill everyone, including younglings, though a few Jedi, including Yoda, escape. Obi-Wan tries to stop him with an epic lightsaber battle on the molten planet Mustafar, leaving Anakin next to a lava river as little more than a burnt up torso. The Chancellor saves him, puts him in Darth Vader’s famous black suit and they start the Death Star. Padme dies in childbirth and her twins, Luke and Leia are separated and hidden from the now-Empire, with Leia going to Alderaan and Luke ending up on Tatooine, with Obi-Wan going into exile there to watch over the boy.

Rogue One

Disney wants us to call it a "standalone" film, but it is not — it is by all definitions, a prequel. That Death Star from Episode III is basically done, but needs one more last push. So the Empire tracks down its missing weapons expert, Galen Erso, and forces him to finish it. But he embeds a secret flaw inside the planet-killing machine. His daughter Jyn doesn’t know what it is, but she and a band of rebels steal the plans and get them to other rebels under the command of the now Princess Leia. The movie ends with Vader trying to steal back the plans in hopes of preventing everything happens in the following episode. Standalone my foot! This is a prequel. Call it "Episode 3.5: Rogue One."

‘Episode 4: A New Hope’


“Star Wars IV: A New Hope” is the original movie, featuring heroes (from left) Mark Hamill, Carrie Fisher and Harrison Ford. (©LUCASFILM LTD./COURTESY EVERET)
Now older, Luke is just a moisture farmer’s boy with no idea of his backstory. But Leia is a major figure in a new rebellion against the Empire. Her ship is attacked by Vader, who makes no mention of the fact that he’s her dad. She sneaks the stolen plans for the Death Star into R2-D2, who ends up escaping to Tatooine with C3PO, who is as shrill as ever. The droids end up in service to Luke and his family, but R2 escapes to find Obi-Wan. Few have seen such loyalty in a droid! Obi-Wan tells Luke about his father – but leaves out all the part about him turning evil. They hook up with roguish Han Solo for a flight on the Millennium Falcon so they can get to Alderaan and join the rebellion. First, Solo shoots first and kills Greedo. Then they take off. En route, the Death Star proves that it’s the ultimate power in the universe by destroying Alderaan in one shot. The Falcon comes out of hyperspace into the rubble and (wait for it!) it’s a trap! The ship is captured by the Empire. Obi-Wan sneaks around and shuts down the forcefield so the Falcon and passengers can escape, but he’s struck down by Vader as he flees. The rebels still have the plans for the Death Star and plot a suicide mission that involves dropping a laser bomb into a tiny vent shaft. Solo declines to participate because, hey, he has to pay off Jabba the Hutt anyway. Luke is disappointed, but Solo shows up just in time to save his life and allow him to finish his mission, using the Force and his experience bulls-eyeing womp rats in his T-16. Much celebrations ensue.

‘Episode 5: Empire Strikes Back’


In “Star Wars V: The Empire Strikes Back,” Han (Harrison Ford) and Luke (Mark Hamill) are rebels on the ice planet Hoth. (LUCASFILM LTD & TM./ALL RIGHTS RESERVED.)
Vader pursues the rebels to a new hideout on the ice planet of Hoth. Luke is visited by the spirit of Obi-Wan and told to go to Dagobah to study the ways of the Force with Yoda. Han and Leia barely escape and head to the Cloud City run by Han’s scoundrel friend Lando Calrissian. But (wait for it!) it’s a trap as the Falcon was tracked by Boba Fett – Jango’s revenge-seeking son – who alerts Vader what’s going on. He shows up and captures Leia and freezes Han in carbonite so Boba Fett can take him to Jabba. Vader has little interest in Solo because he doesn’t have the Force. Lando helps Leia escape, but then Luke bails on his training and shows up (it’s another trap!), where Vader reveals that he’s Luke’s father ("Noooooooooooo!"). Luke barely escapes. Lando and Chewbacca head to Tatooine to free Han and Luke and Leia wait for the next movie.

Episode 6: Return of the Jedi


In “Star Wars VI: The Return of the Jedi,” Leia (Carrie Fisher) wears Jabba the Hutt’s iconic bikini. (LUCASFILM LTD & TM./ALL RIGHTS RESERVED.)
Luke and Leia head to Tatooine to save Han, but Leia is taken as a slave and given a super-hot metal bikini that changed every teenage boy’s life. Using super-Jedi powers, Luke infiltrates Jabba’s palace and gives Jabba one last warning. The crime boss ignores it and captures Luke. He takes him, Lando, Chewy and Han to a Sarlacc pit intending to drop them in to be digested over many years, but they turn the tables on him, which reminds us all why it’s important to heed a Jedi’s warning. Luke goes for more training and Yoda reveals that Darth Vader really is his father. Meanwhile, Han and Leia try to stop the completion of a second Death Star by knocking out an energy field that is protecting the construction site. But (wait for it!) it’s a trap. Vader brings Luke to the Death Star to meet the Emperor, who tempts Luke to give into his dark side. At one point, the Emperor even asks Luke to kill Vader to take his place, but Luke won’t do it – he’s a Jedi, he says, "like my father!" That redeems Vader, who kills the Emperor, but dies in the process – but not before revealing to Luke that he still has good in him. The forcefield down, the rebels destroy the second Death Star and there is much rejoicing. Leia tells Han she loves him – and he knows!

OK, so 30 years have passed. Luke has disappeared. Han and Leia have split up. He’s reverted to his old ways and gone to seed as a freighter captain still holding a grudge, mourning his failed marriage and, most important, missing his first love, the Millennium Falcon. Leia remains a big wig with the rebels — who are now called The Resistence (though it is not clear what they are actually resisting). Meanwhile, there’s a new evil group in the galaxy far far away called The First Order. It’s leader, Kylo Ren, is a Darth Vader fanboy (right down to the Force and the melted Vader helmet he carries around like a trophy) bent on destroying what’s left of the Republic. Oh, and (spoiler alert) he’s Leia and Han’s son. This wouldn’t be a "Star Wars" film without a hero emerging from a desert planet so remote that even the bad guys don’t know about it. This time, the hero is a woman, Rey, who slowly begins to feel the Force inside her and uses it to help locate the missing Skywalker, who (spoiler alert) handled Han and Leia’s son’s Jedi training so badly that he became Kylo Ren. Han helps the Resistence destroy The First Order’s planet-munching machine (isn’t there always one of those in a "Star Wars" movie?), but (spoiler alert) dies in the effort. It’s all very sad. But it sets up a great few sequels.
