the repeating error was:

through some sort of URL re-write.
Continuing to try to trouble shoot the issue i created the news directory.
The error then changed to:
File does not exist: /var/www/www.insurancejournal.com/web/news/east
File does not exist: /var/www/www.insurancejournal.com/web/news/west
.. continuing, some sort of PHP expansion is using URL
encoding seeming to present paths --
possible causes: 1) the PHP is broken (unlikely);
2) mod_rwrite got munged, possibly through an update
overwriting a config file (unlinkely if hte package manager
was being used),
3) the package manager was not being used, (and a
hand-compiled part was used), an upgrade of that part
occured, and the hand-compiled part, or config's got
overwritten (most likely)
for scenarion 3, Diagnostic tool at:
http://www.owlriver.com/tips/broken-system/
which can point out broken parts -- it is non-destructive by
design, but will not steer a lay person too far in fixing
stuff -- it is designed to give hints to a pwerson who will
use the package manager
Time to call the person who set up the site in, test the
backups and see what changed; if not possible, time to get
commercial support, as the diagnosis will be slow through a
mailing list
