Each day for the last three months, NATO has issued a classified order dividing the ongoing air war in Libya—uhh, let's call it "mission"—into offensive and defensive operations.
The latter category is America's job, and it is huge. It includes Suppression of Enemy Air Defenses, which consists mainly of U.S. jets "loitering" in Libyan air space to watch for surface-to-air missiles that might threaten the "offensive" part of the mission: the French, British, Canadian, Norwegian, and Danish planes attacking Muammar el-Qaddafi's forces.
The United States is also supplying most of NATO's intelligence-gathering, surveillance, and reconnaissance capability in Libya, along with air-to-air refueling for NATO strike forces. By NATO's own evidence, President Obama was somewhat disingenuous in claiming at his Wednesday news conference that U.S. forces were not "carrying the lion's share of this operation." U.S. planes, in fact, "represent the majority of aircraft within the theater, and they have done so from the beginning," NATO spokesman Tony White told National Journal on Thursday. "The U.S. role continues to be fundamental to the mission" and is "supremely important in every strike sortie."
(PICTURES: Obama's Six Wars—So Far)
Thus, by playing "defense" and putting no U.S. soldiers on the ground, Obama has effectively gone to war in Libya while denying that America is pursuing "hostilities" that might trigger the War Powers Resolution requiring congressional approval. Whatever you think about his legal argument, Obama's approach may be working. As he said on Wednesday: "We have not seen a single U.S. casualty."
Yet Qaddafi is, by several accounts, close to being toppled. Rebel forces are said to be within 50 kilometers of Tripoli. The French, on their own initiative, say they plan to arm them. And NATO is already anticipating victory, White said. "The moment we reach the tipping point—and we're getting very close to that—which is that the vast majority of [Qaddafi's] troops start not obeying his orders to attack or just lay down their arms, he's done."
Obama's legal and moral tightrope walk through Libya is a new variation on a very old theme. Presidents have been tiptoeing and sidestepping into war—sometimes without congressional approval—ever since Thomas Jefferson became the first president to contemplate invading the shores of Tripoli more than 200 years ago when he deployed the new U.S. Navy and Marines to the pirate-ridden Barbary coast. Invoking the Monroe doctrine, President Wilson intervened regularly in Latin America, especially Mexico, Cuba, and Panama, saying, "I am going to teach the South American republics to elect good men." Presidents Eisenhower, Kennedy, and Nixon authorized CIA coup attempts intended to achieve the effects of war without engaging in one.
What's striking, though, is how presidents over many decades have been able to refine the process of going to war without saying so. In response to resistance from Congress and the American public, U.S. leaders have had little choice but to get much better at this stuff. In the 1970s, following the Church Committee hearings, Congress brought the coup-happy CIA into line, requiring a presidential finding and congressional oversight for any agency action that might influence events abroad. The 1973 War Powers Resolution, meanwhile, was largely a response to Nixon's secret bombing of Cambodia.
In an effort to avoid unpopular wars, presidents have also gotten better at finding ways to cleverly use international bodies like NATO and the United Nations as diplomatic and legal cover, dating back to the U.N.-authorized "police action" in 1950 that came to be known as the Korean War.
In 1991 President George H.W. Bush so deftly used the U.N. to muster broad international action in the Gulf War that Washington was said to have made a profit on that war (a striking contrast to his son's largely unilateral action in Iraq 12 years later). In Kosovo in 1999, Bill Clinton launched a massive NATO air attack in a humanitarian campaign that he refused to call a war, mounted in support of a cause he refused to define (because he didn't support the Kosovars' claims to statehood).
The latest refinement comes from America's ever-advancing war technology and covert capabilities. The Predator drone has become Obama's weapon of choice in theaters from Pakistan to Yemen and was recently introduced into the Libyan conflict, permitting a policy that comes very close to conducting war without public accountability (though U.S. ambassadors in these countries are supposed to vet targets and Congress is supposed to know, strike requests are almost never denied). In Afghanistan, the concept of counterinsurgency, itself a cleaned-up, somewhat euphemized form of war, is fading fast, and there aren't any doctrines to take its place. More and more, instead, the administration has come to rely on the CIA and on private contractors not subject to normal oversight.
Under new Defense Secretary Leon Panetta, a budget whiz intent on paring traditional war platforms, and the nation's covert-action-savvy incoming CIA director, the soon-to-be-civilian Gen. David Petraeus, the process of turning war into something other than war is likely to grow even more intricate and subtle. Both men have already proved adept at fighting long-term actions in ways the public isn't told about, in places such as Yemen.
And there will be new covert types of war, typified by the recent creation of a U.S. Cyber Command. "We talk about nuclear, we talk about conventional warfare. We don't spend enough time talking about the threat of cyberwar," Panetta said at his Senate confirmation hearing. "There's a strong likelihood that the next Pearl Harbor that we confront could very well be a cyberattack that cripples our power systems, our grid, our security systems, our financial systems, our governmental systems."
Scott Silliman, a former Air Force JAG and a highly regarded legal scholar on war at Duke University, says the United States is entering into a new arena with few rules, and the War Powers Resolution is already miles behind, legally, constitutionally, and practically. At the time it was enacted, he said, the law was so hotly disputed that no firm definition of "hostilities" was drawn up.
"Every time you've had a challenge against the president under the War Powers Resolution the courts have said that's a political question. Everyone knows this is not going to go anywhere in litigation," Silliman said. "It was passed because Congress had no control over what President Nixon was doing in Vietnam. But that was with a view toward very traditional armed conflict. Now we're into asymmetric warfare, and 'standoff' warfare using drones in which you're not even in the theater of operation when you fire the missiles. How do you define that? It is similar to the questions about cyber war. Is that warfare? Can you respond with military force?"
The refinement of the process of going to war has also become more necessary because polls show that Americans believe they no longer can afford wars of choice, wars with fuzzy humanitarian aims that don't end in victory, or even expensive counterinsurgency campaigns that drag on and on, as in Afghanistan, Iraq, and Pakistan.
That means, in general, smaller military "footprints," meaning the presence of large numbers of troops and equipment. And the smaller the footprint, the less a president has to worry about consulting Congress or the American people. All of which means that the question of when and how we go to war—or even what war is any more—will grow that much more slippery.

I am REALLY eager to get going on my projects for DSCF and feel a tad guilty about the number of things I am hoping to get done. So, in preparation, I have been getting stuff organized and hopefully set for quick jobs. Here are some pre-DSCF prep photos. I am using photobucket for the first time, so hopefully this will work...
First, I have a Final swap scheduled, so I have already completely rebuilt the one I got from Boss:
I also figured folks might get tired of having to chisel away 60 years' worth of crud to do some of the jobs, so in preparation for the final swap and the rear engine seal replacement, I paid one of the body shop guys to degrease and pressure clean Bobbie! (I sure am lucky to have the use of my friend William's body shop - Brown's Auto and Collision - in which to work!!)
Looking forward to some good work, fun and (of course!!) good EATS!!!! Just a few more days...See y'all there!
Hey! Don't forget those cookies!!!

To the Editor:
Cumberland Times-News
I grew up in Cumberland and have a mail subscription to the Cumberland Times-News. I just read "Fed and dead: Bear killed after repeated contact with humans" on the editorial page on July 9.
The article mentioned the bear had been walking around the town (Westernport) for about a month. I don't understand why the Natural Resources Police had done nothing for 30 days.
I hate to see an animal senselessly killed especially based on some stupid individuals feeding him. It also mentioned that Harry Spiker fired a drug dart, but the drug did not work at all. Why did he not fire a second dart or try to trap the bear?
The NRP had 30 days to do something about this beside killing the bear. Sounds like the NRP took the easy way out rather than trying to explain this bear was left to wander for 30 days.

For 12 years, Larry Huntley of Fort Mill has wondered about the justice system. His daughter, Melissa Huntley Motz, died from a gunshot to the head in Rock Hill in 2001.
Huntley watched the Florida case of George Zimmerman and Trayvon Martin unfold. Zimmerman was found not guilty after he shot and killed Martin.
Without Zimmermans gun, Huntley said, there would have been no death. No child is dead.
Just like when his daughter died. No gun, no death.
The man with Melissa Motz that night was her husband, James Motz. Prosecutors, local and state, have always maintained since 2001 that there was not enough evidence to charge James Motz with murder or anything else.
But, Huntley points out, at least Zimmerman was charged and the case was heard in a criminal court. James Motz was never charged with any crime in my daughter getting killed. We never had our day in a criminal court.
Huntleys lawyer, Dennis Bolt, said for years, and still does, that he wanted James Motz charged in Melissa Motzs death.
Absolutely, Bolt said Wednesday.
James Motz was not charged with any crime in connection to his wifes death even though he admitted he and his wife argued that night and that he fired at least four shots in the air. He was a convicted felon with a documented history of abusing women, testimony showed.
James Motz was ordered to pay $25,000 in damages for his role in Melissa Motzs death, after Larry Huntley filed a 2005 wrongful death civil lawsuit against him.
James Motz served federal prison time for possession of a weapon by a convicted felon from the incident. But nothing else.
Larry Huntley, now 76, has put fresh flowers on his daughters grave every Sunday for 12 years.
I wanted the system to do what it is supposed to do, Huntley said. Justice.
Bolt, himself a former prosecutor, said Wednesday that Larry Huntley, no different than the family of Trayvon Martin, wanted his day in criminal court. He would live with the outcome.
The question of whether George Zimmerman murdered Trayvon Martin was decided in court, where it should have been. Zimmerman had a gun. Martin did not. No matter who started the fracas between him and Martin, Zimmerman used the gun. A teen died.
Prosecutors in Florida, after police initially did not charge Zimmerman, indicted Zimmerman without a grand jury. He went to trial. He was found not guilty by a jury.
The jury system we have is the best system of justice in the world, Bolt said. We have to remember that. Thats what happened in Florida.
The family of Touna Xiong from Rock Hill knows the system of justice, or a semblance of justice. Xiong, a Hmong refugee, was killed by a hunter in Chester County. The hunter, Stephen Hawkins, was brought to trial in 2012 for negligent use of a gun. Nobody ever said it was a murder but there was clearly a death by a gun.
We have a statute, a law, for just that case and we took him to trial on that charge, said Sixth Circuit Solicitor Doug Barfield, the prosecutor for Chester and Lancaster counties.
Hawkins was convicted and sentenced to the minimum under the law 90 days in jail. He served it on weekends.
Xiongs family also received a $50,000 wrongful death settlement in civil court from Hawkins insurance company, court records show.
That is what the Xiong family got in justice for the death of Tuona Xiong. 90 days served on weekends and less money than a new sports car costs.
Chao Xiong, Tuona Xiongs sister, said there are similarities between what her family went through in seeking justice, and the Zimmerman case.
It all has to do with guns, the usage of guns, Chao Xiong said. It all comes down to guns.
In 2012, former Major League Baseball player Danny Clyburn, unarmed, was shot and killed in Lancaster by lifelong friend and convicted felon Derrick McIlwain.
McIlwain admitted the shooting in a court hearing earlier this year, but he and his lawyer said McIlwain should not be prosecuted because he should have immunity under South Carolinas stand your ground law.
McIlwain claimed to fear for his life from an unarmed man Clyburn.
Just like Zimmerman claimed.
There was an argument. Just like Zimmerman.
McIlwain still faces a murder charge and his case is languishing in the system. No trial date will be set until the stand your ground issue is resolved. McIlwains lawyer has appealed a judges ruling that McIlwains case does not fit under stand your ground.
The state Supreme Court two weeks ago halted a Columbia-area murder case until it could make a ruling on South Carolinas stand your ground law.
That ruling might give some clarity how to go forward in McIlwains case, Barfield said.
Latonia Samuel, Clyburns ex-wife, said Wednesday that she and her son and daughter have watched what happened in Florida. The family is still not sure what will happen to the man charged with taking away their husband and father.
But I do know, Latonia Samuel said, that Danny was shot by a man with a gun.

Why study prelaw?
First-year students who express an interest in law participate in a semester-long orientation program, meeting for an hour once a week with their prelaw advisor, representatives of law schools, and practitioners in the legal profession. The purpose of the orientation is to introduce the student promptly to prelaw at UD, to acquaint the first-year student with various undergraduate majors, to discuss the nature of law school, and to demonstrate the variety of ways in which lawyers practice their profession. Then, throughout their years at UD, prelaw students are advised about appropriate course work, as well as the law school admission and selection process.
A simulated Law School Admission Test (LSAT) is offered at least twice a year and can be taken as many times as a student wishes. Such a test familiarizes the student with the kinds of questions on the LSAT and can be used as an effective means to diagnose the student's academic strengths and weaknesses. For juniors and seniors, the Prelaw Program sponsors a two-weekend LSAT preparation workshop twice a year. These programs have proven to be one of the most helpful and popular features of the Prelaw Program.
In the area of pre-professional development, legal internships may be available for juniors and seniors. Students spend up to 15 hours a week in a lawyer's office, assisting attorneys and gaining a feel for what the practice of law and the culture of a law firm are like. Up to three hours of academic credit are given for an internship course.
We also offer a number of other developmental opportunities. Interested students can participate in the UD Mock Trial teams. Teams compete locally, regionally and nationally, and students earn one hour of credit per semester of participation. For all students, there is the opportunity to join Phi Alpha Delta, the undergraduate prelaw fraternity, which, among its many activities, organizes programs introducing students to the variety of careers available to attorneys. Every fall the Prelaw Program also hosts the Dayton Metro Law Fair, where law school representatives from across the country come to meet prospective students and discuss their respective institutions.

Knoxville — According to court records, arson suspect Nicholas Wade Carter, 18, of Knoxville, was cleaning at 110 East Robinson and set the fire in the hopes of being done with it.
The fire broke out around 1:50 p.m. Monday, March 25. A passerby reported the fire by calling 911.
Lt. Justin Kingrey with the Marion County Sheriff's Office, the County's fire investigator, began to look into the situation shortly thereafter. In an affidavit Kingery filed over the weekend, the investigator said he learned that there were two individuals in the building before the fire began. He alleges that Carter was one of them, and that Carter was present minutes before the call came into the sheriff's office.
Carter allegedly admitted to begin there. The fire began when a candle was lit, and the open flame was placed near combustible materials. Carter is accused of intentionally walking out with the candle burning. The candle was placed out of the sight of the second individual. Court records say that Carter knew his friend would put the flame out if the friend had seen it, and Carter did not want that to happen.
Kingrey's complaint against Carter reads, "(Carter) wanted to burn some of the stuff that was in the building because he was tired of cleaning the items out of the building and just wanted to be done with it."
Five fire departments (City of Knoxville, Knoxville Township, Indiana Township, Pleasantville and Pella) responded to the blaze. It was knocked down within two hours. Knoxville Fire Chief Nick Bonstell and Marion County Sheriff Jason Sandholdt both released statements over the weekend, regarding the fire and ensuing investigation.
Sandholdt especially wanted to recognize the work of Lt. Justin Kingrey, "Lt. Kingrey spent a lot of time focusing on this case so that we would know the truth. His experience as a former fire fighter and now arson investigator for the Sheriff's Office was very beneficial during this investigation."
"This should be a clear message to anyone in the City of Knoxville that we will aggressively investigate all fires," Bonstell said. "We will not tolerate arson. The cooperation between the Marion County Sheriff's Department and the City of Knoxville was pivotal in this case. Thanks to everyone who worked long and hard on this case."
Other agencies who assisted with the fire include the Knoxville Police Department, Knoxville Public Works, Marion County Emergency Management, the State of Iowa Fire Marshal's Office, American Red Cross and Mid-American Energy.
Carter is scheduled to be arraigned on Friday, April 5, at 9:30 a.m. We will continue to follow this case as it progresses.

PLATTSBURGH — Beekmantown used a 13-6 run in the fourth quarter Thursday to overtake Plattsburgh High 54-52 in Champlain Valley Athletic Conference Division I boys' basketball.
The Hornets held a 22-15 lead after one quarter and led by as many as 10 points in the third.
"Give Beekmantown all the credit — they didn't quit," Plattsburgh coach Chris Hartmann said.
Keegan Ryan led the way for the Eagles with 29 points. Sam Trombly added seven, and Justin Stevens had six.
"Ryan fouled out with 1:15 left," Hartmann said. "Taoufik Maknani hit a 3-pointer to bring us to within two, and we were able to get a stop. But we weren't able to pull it out at the end."
Damon LaBorde paced the Hornets with 15 points. Brooks Kelley added 11 points and 10 rebounds, Nate Harrington had nine points and seven rebounds and Maknani totaled seven points.
"We had a 10-point lead in the third quarter, but their zone press forced us into some turnovers," Hartmann said. "Ryan had a big game, but his supporting cast did a great job for them. Their guards played well.
"We ended up with 17 turnovers and were just 3-of-10 from the foul line. Those were big differences in the game. But we can't score 22 points in the first quarter, seven in the second, 17 in the third and six in the fourth. We have to be better than that."

Peru 49, Saranac 47
SARANAC — Tim Remillard wasn't fazed by a hostile Saranac crowd or even a tie score in the closing moments of the ballgame.
The Peru senior forward was able to knock down two clutch free throws with 8.9 seconds remaining for a thrilling win over the Chiefs (1-2, 1-2).
Both teams were involved in a track meet in the final minutes of play, exchanging the lead on multiple occasions before Remillard's free throws proved to be the difference-makers.
The Chiefs had a potential shot coming on an inbounds play with 1.2 seconds left, but a loose ball with time elapsing erased any chance at a tie or win.
"It was neck-and-neck the whole game," Saranac coach Brent Dennis said. "Both teams played hard. It came down to the final minute of play."
Remillard paced the Indians (2-1, 2-1) with 18 points, while teammate Connor Casey added 13, including three 3-point field goals.
Saranac's John Maye (15), Jeremy Bullis (13), and Michael Conway (10) combined for 38 points in the loss.

Electrodes do not keep their adhesiveness for very long at all. They serve their purpose, but do not last.
Really work well. Sticky, better than those that come with the MaxStim 1000.
This is an excellent all purpose electrode. Its construction is study, the lead is well attached and the pins snugly fit the female socket (no slip out). Multiple uses are very satisfactory. A small amout of water restores adhesion nicely.

Several organizations in Marin County are raising funds to keep two state parks open.
China Camp State Park in eastern San Rafael and just north of Novato are among 70 parks that could be closed on July 1 because of an $11 million shortfall in the California Department of Parks and Recreation's 2011-2012 budget and a projected $22 million deficit the following year.
Eleven of those parks could stay open if nonprofit organizations agree to operate them, the Department of Parks and Recreation said.
The state has solicited bids from the nonprofits and has not received proposals regarding the 11 parks, parks department spokesman Roy Stearns said.
"There are another 24 parks where partnership negotiations are in progress with cities, counties, nonprofits and others, and there is a strong likelihood that many of these will remain open," Stearns said Tuesday.
The Marin State Parks Association and its subgroups, Friends of China Camp and The Olompali People, submitted a letter of intent to the state Department of Parks and Recreation last week expressing interest in operating the two parks.
"Plans are in the early development stage but already generating much excitement," Assemblyman Jared Huffman's spokesman Dan Okenfuss said Wednesday.
Huffman's Assembly Bill 42 authorized nonprofits to enter operating agreements with the state parks department.
The Novato-based has pledged to match up to $40,000 in donations collected over the next 30 days. The California State Parks Foundation has made a $20,000 challenge grant to kick off fundraising efforts and the Marin Chinese Cultural Association has committed $10,000.
"With close to $100,000 on hand, and plans to generate more funds through fundraisers and a state of the art user fee collection system, Friends of China Camp is showing the willingness and capacity to manage the park," Marin Community Foundation president Thomas Peters said.
The letter of intent from Marin State Parks Alliance includes plans to operate Olompali State Historic Park through The Olompali People.
"I am encouraged to see steady progress in our efforts to save all California state parks," Huffman said. "This local effort to save China Camp and Olompali is off to an excellent start, and I am committed to ensuring its success," Huffman said.
Friends of China Camp's membership has grown from 25 to more than 300 in the past few months, its chair Ernest Chung said.
Marin State Parks Association Superintendent Danita Rodriguez said discussions are under way to determine staffing and operating plans to ensure park viability at China Camp and Olompali parks.

All it took was one phone call and Linda Truitt was inspired to write her first book, "My Momma Comes Back."
Truitt's great granddaughter, Bella, 2, was experiencing anxiety while in childcare. Bella's grandma, Lori Kurzejeski, thought the best way to help Bella was to sing, so they wrote a song. Soon enough, Bella, caught on and called Truitt to sing the song.
"I was hooked," said Truitt.
And not only was the book written by a Maconite, but it was also illustrated, published and recorded (for an audio book) in Macon as well.
"I'm so proud it's a Macon product," said Truitt. "I think we are living in a day and age that small towns have to work together or we don't make it."
The whole book is about emotion and feelings. Truitt says that ultimately she hopes it will help small children understand that if someone you love leaves you, they will come back for you and to help them get through anxiety of being left and earn trust.
"Writing this book has been very exciting," said Truitt. "It is like being old but still being able to take a chance and step off that ledge and say that is important no matter what the end product is. I am happy doing this and it's something I have always wanted to do and it feels good."
Truitt graduated from Shelbyville High School, got a degree in special education from Northeast Missouri State University in 1980 and an elementary education certification k-8. Now, she is the Coordinator for Macon County Ministries' Emergency Food Pantry. So not only is Truitt a cancer survivor, teacher, mother and coordinator, but now she is also an author.
Truitt will be selling her book on her website, www.grandmasbooksforkids.com, at the West Mercantile and during promotion events. Truitt will even be reading her book at the Macon Public Library on February 9 from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. and the Shelbina Library on Feb. 16th from 10-12.

Top Teachers: Debbie Waldenmaier
Colonial Trail E.S., third grade
As a sixth-grader in Brentwood, N.Y., Debbie Waldenmaier struggled with reading and had difficulty grasping some concepts that didn't involve visual or audible elements. But her teacher spent extra time with her and helped create new ways for her to learn that eventually allowed her to thrive.
As a third-grade teacher at Colonial Trail Elementary School, Waldenmaier prides herself upon her ability to do the same for her students.
Because so many students learn in different ways, she has spent extra effort developing unique lessons for individual students, taking their strengths and weaknesses into account as she does so.
"Her classroom is a hands on, challenging learning environment," one nominator wrote of Waldenmaier. "Her enthusiasm and love of what she does is clear."
To Waldenmaier, her teaching style is a natural extension of who she is.
"I think it comes naturally because of the way that I learn," she said. "I was a very eclectic learner – I needed to touch, see, hear it."
To help her students understand the larger world around them, she has arranged for pen pal partnerships with students in Italy and Niger, Africa – students with whom her own class communicates in writing and through video conferencing.
"We sent candy canes to them for Christmas, we've exchanged DVDs. The experience is so real for them," Waldenmaier said of her students.
Moments of recognition and clarity excite Waldenmaier, who feels at home with third-graders and relishes her role assisting in their transition from students who are learning how to read to students who are reading to learn.
"It's just a wonderful transformation over the course of the year," she said. "They become much more independent."
Last year, Waldenmaier – a 16-year teaching veteran who has spent the past four years at Colonial Trail – earned teacher of the year honors at her school. In November, she was one of several recipients of the REB Award, which is given annually to a select few teachers in Metro Richmond. The $10,000 award will help fund a trip to Greece and Italy this summer, during which she plans to document her visits to the historical sites her students can't quite fathom.
"It's really difficult for them to make the connection that a building was built 2,000 years ago and still exists," she said.
Her trip, she hopes, will make the connection a real one for students in the future. Her classroom message is not unlike her favorite quote from Mother Theresa: "Speak kind words, and you will hear kind echoes."
"We teach them to be good citizens and about the differences between people and accepting people for who they are," she said.

Western Henrico Rotary helps fund Midwives For Haiti Jeep
Thanks in part to a $10,000 gift from the Western Henrico Rotary Club, another bright pink Jeep modified to travel extremely rough terrain has been delivered to Midwives For Haiti so that more pregnant women in the quake-ravaged country will have access to prenatal care and a greater chance of surviving childbirth.
The funds were raised at the annual casino night held in February, club president Adam Cherry said. The Rotary Club also helped purchase the Virginia-based charity's first pink jeep three years ago. > Read more.
Agencies combine on new entry point to Chickahominy
Canoeing and kayaking enthusiasts soon will have a new access point to the Chickahominy River. VDOT, the James River Association and Henrico County Parks and Recreation are teaming up to establish a new site in Eastern Henrico.
The James River Association negotiated the deal with VDOT to procure official access to the area located just east of I-295 on North Airport Road in Sandston. The site includes a park-and-ride commuter lot bordering the Chickahominy River and has been an unofficial launch site used by paddlers for years. > Read more.

Is there an Echo in here?
'Earth to Echo' aims to become this generation's 'ET'
It's no secret that all found-footage genre movies are the same. Grab a couple of characters, give one of them a camera, and expose them to something supernatural that's content to lurk just off-screen until the last five minutes. Everything else will just fall into place.
But that formula isn't particularly family friendly, if only because that thing waiting a few feet to the left of the cast is usually plotting their violent doom.
That's what sets Earth to Echo apart from the pack. It, too, follows a group of characters armed with a camera and a tendency to encounter unknown life forms. But all those familiar parts have been rearranged just enough to make it suitable for a much younger audience. > Read more.

Opening an account was quite easy.
Opening an account was quite easy. It took only few minutes and shortly after, I had a token that advised me that I'll be able to post my new website.
I must say that the only glitch I had to deal with was not related to HostPapa but to my particular case. The tech support rep was very good and helpful at solving the issue.
Definitely recommend HostPapa to my folks.

We have had our website hosted with HostPapa for about 4 years now. I can't see any reason to host anywhere else! They have been consistently reliable for years, with only one minor blip in email hosting - and i do mean **minor**. The world isn't perfect and it doesn't get much better than that!
The price is right, the plan comes with all the major features you need, and it's easy to use. Features like built in spam blockers of various degrees are great, and help to greatly curb unwanted emails. Most questions can be answered on their forums just by doing a quick search. We won't be hosting anywhere else anytime soon!

We set-up to create our website but needed a place to host it..
So far, HostPapa has been an excellent web-hosting provider for our company. Since we are in the internet service provider business, we needed two important things: speed and reliability. I was hesitant at first with web hosting providers, but HostPapa's 24/7 customer support really eased the transition of marketing our services from offline media to online channels. They are a green hosting website, which is great - and it makes your own business look good. All in all, they offer a lot of value for such a little price and it would benefit anyone from a basic beginner to an advanced online pro.

I am a freelance web developer and have been using hostpapa for 3 years. I use my server space to build a lot of my projects when they are in development. Because of this I use a variety of 3rd party software. I have never run into any roadblocks with what I want to build.

Host Papa has been everything...
Host Papa has been everything I need for hosting. I run several websites and blogs. I consider myself to have moderate skills - well beyond novice but I'm certainly no techie... that's what tech support is for. :) In the two+ years I've been with Host Papa I did experience a couple of reliability glitches. Of course, in this day and age of demands for instant fixes and impossible expectations, even one minute of down-time can seem like forever. I did my share of complaining yet on both occasions, not only did the techies permanently resolve the issues, they did so with complete professionalism. They took a lot of s**t from myself and others and returned with better service. They have earned my respect... and loyalty. I take full advantage of their longest term. When you do the math, NOBODY can beat them on value for dollars spent.

Weatherford Democrat
— By CHRIS AGEE | Lone Star News Group
State Sen. Craig Estes recently announced his intent to seek re-election in District 30, which includes Palo Pinto and Parker counties among others.
"I look forward to once again earning the support of the citizens in District 30 and continuing to fight for common-sense conservative values in the Texas Senate," said Estes, R-Wichita Falls. "I plan to run a positive grassroots campaign across the entire district based on my proven record of conservative leadership."
During the 2013 session, Estes authored Senate Bill 1857, a school safety bill Perry has since signed into law.
"My constituents made it clear they wanted us to pass a conservative legislative agenda and I am proud of what we were able to accomplish," he said of the recent session. "When re-elected, I will continue listening to the families of District 30 to make sure our shared conservative values are well represented in the Texas Senate."
In addition to Palo Pinto and Parker, District 30 also includes all of Archer, Clay, Cooke, Erath, Grayson, Jack, Montague, Wichita, Wise, and Young counties, as well as portions of Collin and Denton counties. He first won election to the seat in 2001.
On May 27, he was sworn in as the Texas Senate's president pro tempore, making him the third highest-ranking official in the state after the governor and lieutenant governor.

|Adopt a Home
What we do?
The inefficiency of a boarding school setup for the normal development of children very quickly became evident. A decision was made to build individual houses with a maximum number of 13 children per house. This enables the children's home to cater for the individual needs of each child Jacaranda Children's Home has 22 houses, and the Louis Botha Children's Home has 11 houses. Many of these houses have basic day-to-day needs.
Against this background a project was initiated called Adopt-a-Home. This project enables concerned individuals, companies, church groups or teams to adopt-a-home, becoming involved in assisting the needy houses to improve their infrastructure and to meet day-to-day needs.
The project offers three distinct options for adoptions:

Introduction: a Typical Embedded System
Choosing a filesystem for your embedded system depends on many factors. Do you need to be able to write to it? Do you value size or speed? Do you want to be able to replace the filesystem without replacing the kernel?
You also need to be aware of your storage medium's limitations. For instance, Flash has a limitation when it comes to how many times each cell can be written. To prolong the life of a Flash-based device, it's a good idea to use a filesystem that has been adapted for this purpose.
There are numerous filesystems from which to choose, but the following three are interesting as they show some important factors you should take into consideration:
initramfs: a filesystem that is embedded into the kernel image. If your kernel is compressed, the initramfs filesystem is decompressed alongside the kernel. This gives the system a performance advantage. The filesystem is kept in RAM as the device operates and can be modified. However, all modifications are lost upon reboot.
cramfs/squashfs: two compressed read-only filesystems. Both of these systems let you create a compressed image that you can mount at runtime. The filesystem can be replaced without touching the kernel.
jffs2/ubifs: compressed filesystems tuned for Flash devices. These filesystems can be written to permanently, and they try to minimize the "wear and tear" of the Flash blocks by spreading write operations across the device.
Luckily, you do not have to pick one of these filesystems; instead, you can mix them—for instance, starting from an initramfs image with the most basic tools and then mounting a jffs2 Flash partition for storing user data. As Linux allows you to mount filesystems into any location in your directory tree, you can make this transparent to the applications using the filesystem.
Cross Compilation
One of the interesting aspects of embedded development is that you are likely to encounter new processor families. Most of you have x86 hardware at home; some might have a SPARC, 68k or a MIPS system lying around. With embedded systems, you are likely to run into ARM, SH, PowerPC or MIPS, among others.
The implication of this is that you must cross compile everything from your desktop build machine (your host machine) for your target device. The resulting binaries cannot be run directly on your desktop machine. You can do it using emulators such as QEMU that allow you to emulate common CPUs, but you will have to do some testing and probably some debugging on your target device.
Sometimes you can get a cross compiler from a vendor or distribution. You also can build your own. Building your own cross compiler used to be a real pain, but these days, you can use crosstool from Dan Kegel. Crosstool is a set of scripts and patches that allows you to build gcc and standard libraries for your platform of choice.
Crosstool's greatest feature is that you can (attempt to) build any combination of compiler and standard library. This makes it easy to try to build a toolchain for an existing device.
Distributions and Frameworks
As fun as it is to roll your own, sometimes time does not permit it. A number of commercial players exist in the embedded Linux field, and many freely developed tools for building a complete embeddable environment also are available. The following list contains a few tools you might consider using:
Buildroot: a set of Makefiles and patches for building a complete embeddable system. It generates everything from the cross compiler, the kernel and software libraries, and the userspace applications. The resulting system uses uClibc.
Ågström distribution: another build framework for building embedded Linux systems. It also sports a package manager. This makes it possible to add and remove applications from the device directly, instead of having to build and download an entire system image or copy the application's files to the right locations manually.
ScratchBox: a build framework for making embedded Linux application development easier. It has gained adoption through the Maemo development platform (the Nokia N7/8/9xx Internet tablets). It supports cross compiling entire distributions, can switch between glibc and uClibc and uses QEMU emulation of targets.
In all of those cases, it takes a bit of work to get the distributions running on a new system. As always with embedded systems, nothing is standardized, and size usually matters, so a bit of tweaking is more or less inevitable. However, having a framework for building a working system can be a real time-saver.

Linux has become a key foundation for supporting today's rapidly growing IT environments. Linux is being used to deploy business applications and databases, trading on its reputation as a low-cost operating environment. For many IT organizations, Linux is a mainstay for deploying Web servers and has evolved from handling basic file, print, and utility workloads to running mission-critical applications and databases, physically, virtually, and in the cloud. As Linux grows in importance in terms of value to the business, managing Linux environments to high standards of service quality — availability, security, and performance — becomes an essential requirement for business success.

What people don't know, won't hurt them, right? Well, if you're an organization that's hoping to drive a lot of marketing mileage in, then, no. What you don't know, may indeed actually hurt you (or your sales). Take for example using custom trophies as a promo item. That's quite uncommon, right? But what people don't really know is that the marketing returns of giving out such merchandise has a tremendous impact on the recipient of these promotional trophies with logo and consequently, on the expansion of your business.
You might also like : Custom Three To Five Dollar Giveaways, Logo Party Giveaways, Logo Prom Giveaways
Firstly, the impact on the employees who receive these customized trophies are psychological, so it isn't tangible and can't always be measured. But years of human behavioral studies have shown that people respond better to rewards rather than punishment. So if you put yourself in the shoes of the person who has been given an award--an object meant to recognize excellence or at the very least mark the efforts of a person--he or she becomes more motivated to continue doing their best. Personalized trophies with logo never fail to make a person feel good. The average employee can feel valued when given one of these bulk trophies. Very little effort on your part, yes, but this giveaway is not seen as just a freebie to an employee's eyes; to them, it can be a treasured prize.
Secondly, how do these logo trophies increase sales? The boost in general employee morale will do wonders for their work efficiency. This is always good news for any organization. Other employees will strive to be the next person who gets the award, if in case it wasn't them. Another aspect that augments sales increase is giving out business trophies to your customers. Does that sound weird? Well, actually, it's not. There is a subconscious effect going on in your customers' minds when they receive an award for which they haven't really done anything for. Your customers will continue their patronage all because of your recognition of their support. It may be a promotional product for you, but it's a gift to them. This is a marketing material which can become regular practice because its long term effects on your employees and customers are correlated to your sales.

3-D Printing: Is It The Future Of Custom Bikes?
By Leif Haven
Pour poisonous gunk into the ground, let it stew for a few decades, then spend millions of dollars trying to extract it. Sounds like a recipe for lunacy, doesn't it?
Well, San Francisco has brewed up an asylum's worth of such crazy casseroles in places like Hunters Point, China Basin, Treasure Island, the Presidio -- the list goes on. Wackier still, various government agencies are spending millions of dollars on cleanup -- without ever intending to completely remove the contaminants.
To this, SF Weekly says: "Stop the madness!"
And we didn't just say, we did. We turned to consulting expert Chazz Levi, a New York floral specialist and event planner who uses scented votive candles to create unique olfactory environments for entertaining. Instead of spending millions of dollars on test wells and decades of pollution monitoring, Chazz came up with simple, inexpensive, and fun solutions for beautifying several of San Francisco's worst toxic waste sites.
With the money that Ms. Levi's environmental restoration plans can save, SF Weekly believes San Francisco should build more freeways and fewer public transport systems; uproot city museums by the handful, so they can be moved to other parts of town; buy at least three infrared-equipped helicopters to chase homeless people hither and yon; and otherwise continue the sort of lily-gilding nonsense that seems to keep San Franciscans so distracted they never demand real solutions to public policy problems.
Point Naval Shipyard
The government's solution: After decades as a repair and maintenance stop-off for the Navy's Pacific fleet, the Hunters Point Naval Shipyard is slated to become housing subdivisions, retail stores, a biotech park, and, the Navy hopes, a paper-recycling plant.
But the solvents, fuels, and other poisons deposited during the base's heyday have left the ground contaminated with heavy metals, PCBs, oil, gasoline residue, and grease, according to Department of Defense documents. The shipyard is a federal Superfund site, and will pass to the city of San Francisco during the first part of next year. By that time, the government will have spent $309 million removing contaminants, says Michael McClellan, of the Navy's cleanup team.
In some areas, workers have removed soil as deep as 10 to 12 feet and replaced it with uncontaminated landfill, McClellan says. When the job is done, he claims, "there will be some chemicals left, but they are low enough levels where they don't pose a risk."
SF Weekly's solution: Piffle, Chazz Levi says. The real task at hand is to erase the violent, military feel of the place and replace it with love. "The main thing when you're taking over a space that is a military space is, first of all, change the attitude. I think that the way to go is with passion: night bloom, gardenias, sensuous smells," Chazz says, after being shooed away from the shipyard's front gate by an overzealous guard. "These are things that are going to make people love each other and get turned on to a contact that is not combative, and is more nurturing."
Chazz would strew the base with white flowers and strategically placed "night bloom"-scented candles. "What happens in terms of its surroundings is to promote love, and that's absolutely what we need here," Chazz says.
Hunters Point's coming-out party should be a costume party, she says. "In lieu of printing place mats, I would go to the hardware store and get those little paint masks. I'd have everybody wear them, and make that be the fashion statement," she says. "Because there's nothing worse than somebody leaving an event and getting sick."
Score Card
Navy's solution:
Recycle sandblasting grit; replace soil contaminated with zinc, chromates, and other metals; remove equipment; monitor ground water.
Cost: $309 million.
SF Weekly's solution:
Install 340,322 gardenias, 55,000 assorted white flowering plants, and 554,400 large "night bloom"-scented candles.
Estimated cost: $23,498,027.
Total estimated savings:
China Basin Stadium Site
City-approved solution: With the arrival of the new millennium, San Francisco's China Basin port/industrial district will echo with the crack of bats and the roar of baseball fans at a new Giants stadium. But critters such as the S.F. Bay's native herring, seals, sea lions, birds, clams, worms, and algae won't be joining the cheers.
An environmental impact report suggests they may be endangered by tons of toxic goop the Giants plan to leave in the bay-side soil under their stadium. Critics demand that the Giants spend $5 million to replace the soil, which contains benzene, toluene, ethyl benzene, zylene, lead, cyanide, and other contaminants.
The Giants say they'll protect fans from this toxic sludge by paving over the site. As for the critters, the Giants say they'll be careful not to stir up too much dust and bay-bottom silt when constructing their stadium.
SF Weekly's solution: Using her well-honed design skills, Chazz would exploit the gritty, industrial feel of the China Basin area to create an intimate, fun space for Giants fans and critters alike.
"We'd go with a 'rare amber'-scented candle. It creates a feeling of intimacy and warmth, and I think this space could use that. It's a natural fragrance, it's one that's derived of flowers, and you could definitely use some flowers and some spice in this kind of environment to make you want to stay in it," says Chazz, as she lounges on a rock pile near Test Well No. 6, which shows the ground to contain more than 3,000 times more benzene than seems reasonable.

"So break out the bottle, bring on the crowd;
Tell funny stories, turn the jukebox up loud;
Come on sit at my table where the drinks are on me;
Just gather round me 'cause misery loves company."
— Porter Wagoner
Webster's dictionary defines "miserable" as "being in a pitiable state of distress or unhappiness (as from want or shame); wretchedly inadequate or meager; causing extreme discomfort or unhappiness; and being likely to discredit or shame."
It's a pretty durable word we're all familiar with. It can be an adjective, noun or even an adverb if used as "miserably."
I bring up the topic of "misery" or being "miserable" because I am miserable. You're miserable, too, but perhaps you're not aware of it.
Collectively, you and I, dear reader, occupy the seventh-most miserable state of the Union. That's according to the most recent Bloomberg Best survey, which rated the most miserable states. We are seventh. I'm just happy not to be living in Louisiana because those poor saps are the most miserable. That is, again, according to the Bloomberg survey.
Just in case you're wondering, our misery score (out of 100 points) is 65.01. If we were in school, that would be a "D" average. And everyone knows that "D" equals diploma, right?
So what makes us so miserable? Our air pollution rate is at 11 percent. (Thanks, Birmingham.) Our child poverty rate is 21.6 percent. (Pretty bad, I must admit.) Our high school graduation rate is 69.9 percent (Deplorable!) Our infant mortality rate is 8.9 percent, per 1,000 births. (Downright depressing.)
With statistics like that, I guess it's no wonder Bloomberg thinks we're so miserable. Jeez, anybody got a gun, knife or noose I can use on myself? Perhaps I'll just drive a dynamite and rum-filled convertible Cadillac off Red Mountain in Birmingham. That's how gonzo author Hunter S. Thompson once claimed he wanted to die.
If it was good enough for him, it's certainly good enough for me. Certainly wouldn't do anything to help that air pollution rate, however.
Funny thing about Bloomberg, though. It's headquartered in the Bloomberg Tower, located at 731 Lexington Ave., "in the heart of New York City." That's according to Bloomberg's website, and just for your information should you want to pop by or write those Yankee elitists a letter.
After looking at the survey statistics, I was a little confounded to see that eight of the most miserable 10 states were what I would consider Southern states. After first-place Louisiana, you've got Mississippi (2), Arkansas (3), West Virginia (4), South Carolina (6), Alabama (7) Tennessee (9) and Kentucky (10).
The other two states on the top 10 were New Mexico (5) and Nevada (8). I guess Nevadans aren't as miserable as Alabamians because they have legalized prostitution and gambling.
Thinking about all this misery has really made me miserable. Surely there must be something Alabamians can feel proud of. But what could it be?
Could it be our rich natural resources? Our cuisine? Our championship college football team(s)? Our spring and fall seasons? Our manners? Our unflinching devotion to God and country? The fact that you can drive from the majestic beauty of Mentone to the sandy white beaches of Gulf Shores in six hours or less?
Are these all things that can really offset our misery? You bet your sweet potato pie they are.
Granted, Alabamians — like people in any other state — wake up on the wrong side of bed some mornings. That doesn't make us miserable 100 percent of the time. Oops, 65.01 percent of the time.
I'd like for whatever jerkface joker who put this list together to come on down to Alabama for a day or two. I'd be happy — not miserable — to show him or her around, just so he/she can see just how miserable we are. As Porter sang, misery loves company.
I'll even rent a convertible Cadillac that may or may not have a trunk full of dynamite and rum. (Shhh. It will be our little secret).
— Managing editor and miserable Alabamian Adam Smith can be reached at firstname.lastname@example.com.

SEATTLE -- Boeing's biggest customer for the 777 wants to know what's next for the model.
"We're pushing very hard to come up with a successor to it," said Tim Clark, president of Emirates Airline -- the largest 777 operator in the world with nearly 200 of the big Boeing jets in service or on order.
The 777 is considered Boeing's cash cow -- the company's most profitable jet. The plane's sales took off in the mid-1990s because it was so fuel efficient.
But that was 17 years ago, and while Clark and others have pushed Boeing to add seat capacity and boost the range of 777s, he said he fears high oil prices are all but permanent -- so he is pushing Boeing for more changes, a model now called the 777-X.
"Give me a 20-percent reduction in trip economics than I get on the ER today," Clark said, referring to the 777-300ER, which stands for Extended Range.
"That would be 400 passengers and ten tons of freight. Are they there? Probably not. Are they close? Maybe," Clark said.
Boeing has not disclosed much about the 777-X (or whatever the company eventually calls the new model). Ideas include an all plastic composite wing with an aluminum body. The composite wing would be based on lessons learned from Boeing's smaller-but-fuel-efficient 787 Dreamliner.
Boeing is talking about bringing a new 777 to market by the end of the decade. Clark said he would like to see the plane even sooner ... and he said he is prepared to convert some 50 existing orders and options to the future jet.
"I might go for some," said Clark.
But with 777s in the Emirates Airline livery rolling out of Boeing's Everett factory routinely, is he concerned about labor strife at the company, such as the current stand off with some 23,000 engineers and technicians represented by SPEEA?
"Emirates distances itself from labor disputes that come in through the supply chain wherever that might be in the world," Clark said.
But he added: "Boeing and Airbus have had histories of industrial difficulties, and they've managed to get themselves through that."

And just like that, I am totally over my obsession with the orange bag. I am glad I didn't buy the bag as I am now saving for something a whole lot better. Suddenly my need to learn more about eye creams, and bags and other girly stuff has taken a back seat. This is seriously giving me palpitations. I so want to have this.
I compared my current LX3 with GF1 through Snapsort, and what do you know GF1 won. I am also reading LetsGoDigital's GF1 review and test shots.

The Honeywell TH3110D1008 NonProgrammable Thermostat works great. At last I get accurate temperature settings and readings for my home. The old mercury thermostat was often off by a few degrees and room temps fluctuated. Now, when I set 79 degrees, IT IS, 79 degrees. Smart purchase for me.

Using the nonprogrammable thermostat solved my frustration with the programmable one. Like the old time thermostat it is working with excellent results. The heat we ask for is what we get. The display is so much better than the old dial thermostats...set 1 degree higher and the furnace reacts immediately to the new setting...
Yes, I recommend this product.

PLATTSBURGH — Clinton Community College has been on the wrong end of some close games over the past few weeks.
The Cougars have dropped their last three games by one, three and one point.
Wednesday, though, it all came together for Clinton in a 71-62 victory over Hudson Valley.
Mykell Crecko led the way with 17 points and 12 rebounds. Crecko went 7-of-11 from the field and currently leads Region III in field goal percentage, shooting 61 percent from the field. He is also tops in rebounds in the region at 12.7 per game.
"We did a great job defensively," Clinton coach Kevin Daugherty said. "We did a great job and only committed eight personal fouls for the game.
"Our ball movement in the half court was outstanding and we made the extra pass. We also were 8-for-16 from three."
Jamie Davison connected on 5-of-10 from 3-point range for 15 points and four assists. Kyree Hull and Jordan Knight each finished with nine points, while Matt Spencer added seven points and eight rebounds for the Cougars (7-8, 10-9).
"We've lost by one, three and one the last three games," Daugherty said. "This was a much needed win, but also a quality win against a team that was one game ahead of us in the standings.
"We had a lot of guys step up defensively, especially the two Jordans (Knight and Coolidge), Hull and Davison. It was a really good night."
Jose Reyes and Giacomo Giglio each tallied 13 points to lead the way for the Vikings. Richard Williams added 11 points.
"It was a much needed win," Daugherty said. "The guys have been playing really hard and we have been right there, but haven't been able to get it done.
"They played extremely well (Wednesday)."
Clinton hosts a pair of games this weekend starting with Saturday's contest against Fulton-Montgomery and wrapping up Sunday against Delhi. Both games slated for 3 p.m.
