This April 2013 image shows Yosemite Valley at Yosemite National Park in
California.APTwo months after the sequester hit, the Department of Interior
continues to warn of coast-to-coast cuts for the country's national parks
-- and even the partial shutdown of a critical flood warning system.But
Sen. Tom Coburn says there's "no shortage of potential savings," pointing
out that the department is nevertheless spending millions on newly created
monuments and landmarks.The Oklahoma Republican, who has been hounding federal
agencies for weeks about questionable spending under the cloud of sequester,
aired his grievances with the Interior Department in a letter to Secretary
Sally Jewell Tuesday."It makes little sense to expand the number of sites
at the same time the budget of every other park is being
cut and visitors are being turned away from visiting the White House,"
Coburn wrote.Coburn pointedly questioned department efforts to name new
sites and expand others -- decisions that will contribute to the department's
annual costs. Coburn said the National Park Service has designated 13 new
historic landmarks and three new monuments since the sequester hit March
1. One of those landmarks, he noted, is a whiskey distillery --
the George T. Stagg Distillery in Kentucky. Other newly created landmarks
include the Connecticut home of abolitionist Harriet Beecher Stowe, the
historic bridge crossed by civil rights marchers in Selma, Ala., and an

area to participate.Under the program, the locality pays 10 percent of the
cost of about $6,500 for installing the charging station, as well as
the cost of the electricity.In mid-January, Watertown dropped its proposal
to install electric-car charging stations in the city parking lot altogether.Instead,
earlier this month, National Grid announced that it would install charging
stations in the parking lot of a Tops supermarket in Pamelia, the
town directly north of Waterown.Watertown is known largely for its position
as the last major city before the state's Canadian border to the
north, as well as its 112 inches of average annual snowfall.Since most
early plug-in electric cars will mostly be recharged via privately owned
charging stations inside the owners' garages, the decision to keep free
charging off city property won't make or break electric cars in the
upstate city.But it does point out some of the unexpected hurdles and
pitfalls that electric-car proponents can encounter as they work to install
public charging infrastructure.Left unanswered is the question of whether
city governments providing free parking also runs afoul of the New York
state constitution.

<p style="font-size:xx-small;">our health. Under Obama's
overhaul, insurers will no longer be able to turn away the sick,
or charge them more. The health care questions will disappear, but they'll
be replaced by questions about your income. Consumers who underestimate
their incomes could be in for an unwelcome surprise later on in
the form of smaller tax refunds."Consumers will have a simple, easy-to-understand
way to apply for health coverage later this year," said Medicare chief
Marilyn Tavenner, also overseeing the rollout of the health care law. She
said the application is "significantly shorter than industry standards."Among
the sections eliminated in the new form was one that asked applicants
if they also wanted to register to vote. Some congressional Republicans
had criticized that, calling it politically motivated.The Associated Press
contributed to this report.

tion, finished third despite putting
$150,000 of his own cash into the race.While Gomez easily outraised his
challengers he also loaned his campaign at least $600,000.The campaign,
the third U.S. Senate race in Massachusetts in the past four years,
was marked in part by the relatively low voter turnout. That turnout
was likely hampered by the April 15 bombing and the search for
the bombers, which consumed the attention of residents across Massachusetts.In
the town of Wayland, in Markey's congressional district, voters trickled
in to polling places.Holly Zaitchik, a retired Boston University professor,
said she voted for Markey because he's "he's done a terrific job
of being there when anything important happens" in Washington.Zaitchik also
thought the marathon attack might discourage turnout among voters."There
are a lot of people who are still down and not wanting
to participate in things," she said. "It's disheartening."Markey, who's
from Malden and has served in the U.S. House since 1976, and
Gomez will be on the June 25 special election ballot along with
Richard Heos, an independent from Woburn.Democratic Gov. Deval Patrick had
named his former chief of staff, William "Mo" Cowan, to fill Kerry's
seat on an interim basis until after the special election.
