Is Herman Cain's up-and-down campaign over? On Monday, Nov. 28, after a woman named Ginger White claimed to have a 13-year relationship with the Republican presidential candidate, political pundits certainly thought the writing was on the wall, particularly after two conflicting PR messages emanated from the Cain camp. They were:
The Preemptive Denial: Even before White went public with her claim, Cain was warning CNN that he would soon be accused of carrying on an affair, and he vehemently denied it (a strategy that so far has kept him in the Republican running).
The "Nobody's Business" Defense: "No individual, whether a private citizen, a candidate for public office or a public official, should be questioned about his or her private sexual life," Lin Wood, Cain's attorney, wrote after White's allegations were made public. "The public's right to know and the media's right to report has boundaries and most certainly those boundaries end outside of one's bedroom door. Mr. Cain has alerted his wife to this new accusation and discussed it with her. He has no obligation to discuss these types of accusations publicly with the media and he will not do so even if his principled position is viewed unfavorably by members of the media."
So after Cain denied having an affair, his lawyer comes very close to hinting just the opposite—maybe Cain had the affair but it should be a private matter.
Then there's the phone evidence: 61 phone calls or text messages displayed by White to or from a 678 number—which she said leads to Cain's private cell phone. Amazingly, when reporters texted one of the numbers, they got a callback from Cain himself. Lesson: There comes a time when you shouldn't be calling back unknown phone numbers.
But times have changed, as some pundits say Cain can weather this storm. These accusations are different from multiple women claiming sexual harassment, they say. It's well known that Republican challenger Newt Gingrich had at least two extramarital affairs—with women he later married (though not at the same time).
The question is, what can Cain say now, if anything, to clean up prior statements and keep himself in the race?

This is a mounting ring for a drill press depth guage. I have a cheap drill press and the original broke years ago. This replacement should clamp to the arbor and the guage pointer bolts to this.
Sketched in solidworks. I made mine to be similar to the original part but thicker in the area where the original broke. Mine was printed in ABS at 0.5mm layer thickness with fairly high infill for strength.
NOTE: I noticed when I installed the mounting ring on my drill press that the inner diameter of the ring was a bit tight. I had to sand quite a bit out to get it to fit onto the drill press. Perhaps I measured the original incorrectly or the tolerances of finished parts from my printer are too large. If I knew more about OpenSCAD I would make a parametric version. Also, since my part is thicker than the original, the threaded end of the rod for the depth indicator did not extend far enough through the part for the washer and nut to fit. I ended up recessing this hole a bit.

I have always wanted a walk in gun vault and was curious about controlling the humidity inside. Since it's much larger than a standard gun vault what would be the most effective way to control the humidity? I thought about a dehumidifier but don't want to have to empty the water every day, and a dry rod is not going to get the job done.

|We bolted this back in 2003 or so using a gas powered generator and a corded hammer drill (it's that close to the road). Got it's name due to the copious choss at the top of the cliff, one piece of which nearly killed my friends dog while we were working on it. I'm surprised anyone knows the name.

Columbus Man Held Captive By Two Robbers Tells His Story
The man who was held captive by two Columbus brothers Wednesday is safe.
Dwayne Johnston was held up by D'Anthony and William Richardson at his home on Perdue Avenue.
Johnston said he was outside and on the phone with his uncle when the two men approached him with a gun.
"I told him, I said 'Man call the police I about to get robbed,'" Johnston said.
He said the men took him inside, sat him down and made him take off his pants so he couldn't run.
"I told them, you know, I'm in between checks," Johnston said. "What you see here is what you get."
The brothers started gathering electronics from the home when the SWAT team arrived.
"He ran to the back of the house and when he ran to the back of the house, that's when I simply walked out the front of the house and locked the door," Johnston said.
He said he knew they were locked in because the back door was closed off.
SWAT teams captured one suspect escaping through a window.
The other one stayed barricaded in a home for several hours and finally came out after tear gas was fired inside.
Both men are being held on $200,000 bond.

Field of Crosses goes up along Memorial Drive
CALGARY- The task of erecting more than 3,000 crosses along Memorial Drive began on Saturday.
This year, 300 more crosses are being added. Each represents a fallen soldier from southern Alberta.
Given the events in Ottawa and Quebec, it's expected more people than ever will stop by the powerful tribute, to reflect and pay their respects to all the soldiers who have been killed in the line of duty. That now includes Corporal Nathan Cirillo and Warrant Officer Patrice Vincent.
Both soldiers were killed this week in targeted attacks on Canadian soil.
"We are just so saddened for the families of those soldiers and the great loss," says Murray McCann, president of the McCann Family Foundation and founder of the Field of Crosses project. "It shows what heroes our soldiers are."
At this time, it is unclear if members of the military will abstain from wearing their uniforms when visiting the crosses. In light of this week's events, some members have been discouraged from wearing them in public places when they are not on duty.
Organizers say they plan to lay wreaths for the two soldiers who lost their lives this week.
The Field of Crosses runs at the same time as the Canadian Legacy Projects veteran food drive and the Calgary Poppy Campaign.

Mumbai: JSW Energy Ltd, the power generating arm of the JSW Group, posted a profit of Rs.311 crore in the fiscal third quarter from a loss of Rs.83 crore in the year earlier.
Total income from operations increased 34% to Rs.2,365 crore in the three months ended 31 December.
"The operational performance during the quarter saw improvement on the back of improved operations of the Barmer unit while the Vijayanagar and Ratnagiri plants continued to maintain high availability," JSW Energy said in a statement. The firm achieved its highest quarterly net generation of 4,770 MUs (million units) during the quarter. One MU is equal to a gigawatt-hour.
The production at its plants in Barmer (Rajasthan), Vijayanagar (Karnataka) and Ratnagiri (Maharashtra) saw an increase. Overall, the plant load factor, a measure of average capacity utilization, jumped to 91.34% in the third quarter from 82.3% in the year earlier.

Waratahs coach Michael Cheika has slammed the door shut on Rocky Elsom playing on at the Super Rugby club despite holding the former Wallabies captain in high regard following their time together at Irish province Leinster.
Cheika was confirmed as the new NSW coach on Tuesday to replace Michael Foley, who departed in July to take up a three-year deal with the Western Force.
With one place remaining to fill in the 30-man squad for 2013, there was a chance Cheika would call upon injury-prone backrower Elsom to remain in Sydney.
Having been named captain by Foley at the start of the season, Elsom started just two games because of hamstring and shoulder injuries.
He never reached the required number of games to activate the second-year clause of his contract with the Waratahs and was released to seek other opportunities.
Last month, Japanese club Kobe tore up Elsom's two-year deal after he failed a medical test.
Cheika coached Leinster between 2005-10, with his highlight at the Dublin-based club a first-ever European Cup title in 2009.
Elsom produced a man-of-the-match performance in the 19-16 victory over English champions Leicester in the final in Edinburgh.
Despite Cheika holding the rugged flanker in high regard, he offered a straight "no" when asked if Elsom would complete next season's playing roster.
"I met with Rocky the other day in Europe. I had dinner with him and his family," said Cheika.
"I think his priority is getting himself fit and healthy so he can get back to the performance levels that he had a few years back."
Cheika hasn't ruled out calling on other Australians involved with him during his time at Leinster as he plots a strategy to steer the `Tahs back as a Super Rugby force.
Current Waratahs assistant Alan Gaffney was Leinster's backs coach in 2009 and is a strong chance of being retained as part of Cheika's support staff.
Former NSW halfback Chris Whitaker, who played 118 games for the Waratahs, was a Leinster favourite and retired after their record-breaking 2009 season.
Whitaker is currently coaching at French second division side Narbonne, where Elsom may sign his next contract.
Whitaker, Gaffney, Elsom and Cheika all played for famous Sydney club rugby nursery Randwick.

English electro-pop duo Pet Shop Boys have finally crossed over into Stateside success and have charted at number 2 on the Hot 100 chart, riding the wave of their smash hit "Party Like a Rockstar." After 25 years of international acclaim but almost universal snubbing in the red, white, and blue spotlight, the seminal disco-dance group have struck gold with their raucous chorus and deadpan lyrics, "Party like a rockstar! (t-t-t-totally dude!)," accompanying somewhat of a musical paradigm shift. "Me and my band, man, on the yacht with Marilyn Manson. Gettin' a tan man," sings Neil Tennant in a cadence we've yet to hear on any of the band's nearly 30 albums.
...Wait, what? "Party Like A Rockstar" is the Shop Boyz?! Goddamn it!! Does a "z" really create a loophole in copyright law?
So, turns out U.S. audiences still don't give a shit, but the aged synth masters are still releasing a new DVD through Rhino entitled Pet Shop Boys: Cubism In Concert. I'm not quite sure what that means, but the disc takes concert footage from a November 14, 2006 show, live from Mexico City's Auditorio Nacional. If only for "West End Girls," the DVD is a must-have for all PSB completists, even if the band didn't get to open last week's BET Awards Live from the red carpet like their moniker-misappropriating counterparts. The DVD also contains commentary, interviews, and behind-the-scenes footage. Don't they all?

For example: on a paint grade shaker style door with a plywood panel-it may be as easy as routering out the inside panel to create a frame, and then purchasing the glass, inserting, and using a small paintbrush to touch up the paint. This type of job could be done at about $100 per door.
However, there are many situations where this will not work, and it may be not even be possible to do with the existing doors. Then you'd be looking more at ordering new door frames, purchasing glass, and painting. Depending on size, style, and species: a ball park price would be anywhere from $200 and up per door.
I agree with the previous posts however...coming from a cabinet making background I can tell you that there is almost no cabinet door that can't be made into a glass panel. HOWEVER the more complicated the more costly. For complicated doors the cost could be over 300 per door easily. In a case such as that it may just be more economical to buy new doors or have your kitchen professionally refaced.

This is a job that we do very often. We have about 100 types of textured clear and coloured glass that can go into your kitchen cabinets. Assuming that your cabinets are open style with a rebate or a panel that can be routed out (added expense) glass of your choice can usually be cut to size and installed for less than $100. Leaded glass designs can also be custom made starting at about $130 per square foot.

Good Morning FishbowlDC!
Got a blind item, interesting link, funny note, comment, birthday, anniversary or anything of the sort for Morning Reading List? Drop us a line or let us know in the tips box below.
Its day 50 covering the Obama administration and week six for us. Today is TVNewser's Summit in NYC. What we know and what we're reading this Tuesday morning…
Media Matters takes a look at the NYT's interview with President Obama here. "But now I'm not so sure Obama wasn't right to ignore the Times. Not after its third question put to him last week: 'Are you a socialists, as some people have said?'" Greg Sargent at blog The Plum Line actually challenged NYT reporter Peter Baker's socialist question and got this response.
WaPo Metro columnist John Kelly imagines America's last two journalists flipping a coin for the last good assignment.
In "United, Newspapers May Stand," David Carr suggests "a rump caucus could form where the newspaper industry would decide to hold hands and jump off the following cliffs together on the following actions," no more free content, no more free ride to aggregators, no more commoditized ads and throw out the Newspaper Preservation Act.
NYT has raised $225 million through the sale and leaseback of part of its headquarters building.
In local news, a DC councilmember, Harry Thomas, threatens to squash a tiny paper, the Brookland Heartbeat.
CNBC thrives on the attitude and personalities of its hosts, from NYT's Brian Stelter. "Whether the attention is positive or negative, it is certain that this tumultuous financial season is CNBC's reason for being. One month shy of its 20th anniversary, CNBC is being jokingly called 'the recession network' within the halls of its headquarters in New Jersey."
More on NBC, NYT takes a look at the networks first placed programming here.
Some pre-Summit Twitter chatter from today's panelists Tammy Haddad, Rick Klein, Jim Long, Rachel Sterne and Michael Meyers on TVNewser.
First Lady Michelle Obama graces the cover of The New Yorker.
A look at "How Obama plays the pundits" from Politico. "But the White House knows that what gets written in Washington and New York filters out into the country- and that it needs support from those who are most likely to get their news from the inside-the-Beltway press, members of Congress, policy wonks and, of course, other journalists."
"Ever wondered what would happen if a hapless reporter from The New York Times attempted to interview Ann Coulter, the writer, columnist and conservative firebrand?" HERE'S YOUR ANSWER.
More on Coulter from Meghan McCain on the Daily Beast, "My Beef with Ann Coulter."
National Geographic is looking for a manager of strategic development.

Analysis of S gene mutation of the hepatitis B virus in adult liver transplant recipients showing resistance to hepatitis B immunoglobulin therapy
Park GC, Hwang S, Ahn CS, Kim KH, Moon DB, Ha TY, Song GW, Jung DH, Shin YW, Kim SH, Chang KH, Namgoong JM, Park CS, Park HW, Park YH, Kang SH, Jung BH, Lee SG. Transplant Proc. 2013 Oct;45(8):3047-51. doi: 10.1016/j.transproceed.2013.08.055.

Division of Hepatobiliary Surgery and Liver Transplantation, Department of Surgery, Asan Medical Center, University of Ulsan College of Medicine, Seoul, Korea.
BACKGROUND: A considerable proportion of recipients of liver transplantations who are presented hepatitis B immunoglobulin (HBIG) monotherapy for hepatitis B virus (HBV) prophylaxis develop HBIG resistance. In this study, we investigated the mutation patterns in the major hydrophilic region (MHR) of amino acid sequences 100 to 160.
METHODS: Using the gene sequence analyzer for amino acid sequences 0 to 226 in the S/pre-S region we analyzed blood samples of 15 patients showing HBIG resistance after high-dose HBIG prophylaxis.
RESULTS: Various mutations in the MHR were observed in 14/15 samples: Gly145Arg mutation in 8/13 Adr subtype and 1/2 Ayw subtype samples (60%). The next most common mutation was Gly165Trp in 8/13 Adr subtype but neither of 2 Ayw subtype samples (53.3%). Concurrent antiviral resistance was noted in 5 patients: lamivudine (n = 5), or entecavir (n = 3), but not adefovir, suggesting the occurrence of simultaneous, antiviral cross-resistances. Two patients underwent retransplantation due to the progression of HBV infection despite vigorous antiviral therapy. At diagnosis of HBV recurrence, the mean HBV DNA load was 6.5 × 10(6) copies/mL; 4 patients showed paradoxical coexistence of anti-HBs and HBsAg. Currently, 2 subjects show low-level HBV DNA replication in peripheral blood, although the other 12 had no DNA replication after prolonged antiviral therapy.
CONCLUSIONS: This study suggested that various mutations in the "a" determinant were associated with HBIG resistance. Since treatment failure to rescue antiviral therapy was often associated with delayed detection of HBV recurrence rather than concurrent antiviral resistance, frequent HBV surveillance using more sensitive screening tests, such as HBeAg and HBV DNA polymerase chain reaction assay, seems to be mandatory.

Cumberland woman hurt trying to pull son from burning home
Posted December 22, 2014
Fayetteville, N.C. — An 8-year-old boy remained in critical condition Monday after a weekend fire destroyed his Fayetteville home.
Three adults and three children, who range in age from 2 to 16, were inside the Selma Drive home Sunday morning when the fire started.
Authorities said Shericka Creighton managed to escape but then suffered cuts and minor burns when she went back inside the burning house to save her son, Tavares Hollingsworth. She and other family members weren't able to get him out before firefighters arrived.
"Family members were here (acting) frantically, of course, and we were having to keep them from trying to get back in windows," said Tracy Smith, deputy chief of Pearce's Mill Fire Department. "We had two firefighters gain entry into two bedroom windows, and fortunately enough, we were able to find the young man."
Tavares suffered burns to the lower part of his body and was taken to the North Carolina Jaycee Burn Center, at UNC Hospitals in Chapel Hill.
Irene Giddens, who lives across the street, said she broke down when she saw flames and smoke shooting through the roof and out the windows of the home.
"Anytime something happens like that, it's bad, but around the holidays, it's tough," Giddens said.
Investigators haven't yet determined the cause of the fire, which Smith said might have started in the living room.
Family members told firefighters there were smoke detectors in the house, but investigators said Monday they hadn't located any.

Islamabad, Sep.19 (ANI): Pakistan Supreme Court Bar Association's former President Aitzaz Ahsan has said that former President General Pervez Musharraf is 'shedding crocodile tears' while admitting that removing Chief Justice Iftikhar Muhammad Chaudhry from office in 2007 was a mistake.
Referring to Musharraf's speech at Trinity University in Saint Antonio, Texas, where the former general admitted that he had committed a mistake while sacking the then Chief Justice of Pakistan (CJP) from office, Ahsan said Musharraf had committed not only one but two mistakes by removing the higher judiciary and imposing an emergency in the country on November 3, 2007.
Talking to a private television channel, Ahsan said the government and the 'independent' judiciary should play their role in trying Musharraf under high treason charges.
He said it was not the right time for lawyers to take their struggle to roads, as they did previously while demanding restoration of the judiciary, The News reports.
Meanwhile, the Pakistan Muslim League-Quaid (PML-Q) has denied that Musharraf had taken the cabinet into his confidence before promulgating the Provisional Constitutional Ordinance (PCO) and imposing the emergency rule in 2007.
Interacting with media persons during an Iftaar party hosted by PML-Q President Chaudhry Shujaat Hussain, several party leaders rejected the notion regarding Musharraf consulting the cabinet before taking the illegal and extra-judicial actions. (ANI)

Nokia Has a 'Contingency Plan' if Windows Phone 8 Fails
In early 2011, Nokia announced that it was finally stepping away from its own-brand smartphone OS and partnering with a another company to bring in a third party operating system. That partner was Microsoft and the third party OS was Windows Phone 7. At the time, Nokia said it would be making Windows Phone its primary smartphone OS. However, it seems Nokia has a back up plan should things not pan out with Windows Phone.
Newly appointed Nokia chairman Risto Siilasmaa made the revelation during a recent TV interview in Finland. CNet points to a report in Finnish newspaper Yle Uutiset that quotes Siilasmaa as saying Nokia has a "contingency plan" should Windows Phone 8 "fail to live up to expectations." However, Siilasmaa added that the Finnish company was confident Windows Phone 8 would be a success.
It's not yet clear what Nokia's contingency plan might be. While it's good to know Nokia hasn't put all its eggs in Microsoft's basket, the company's attempts to break into the smartphone market with Symbian and Meego have been unsuccessful. With Nokia's share prices falling, we're not sure it would survive starting over with yet another smartphone platform in the event Windows Phone 8 doesn't pan out.
house70Of course they're not going to say it now, there is no point in making MS angry when the WP8 devices are not even on the market yet.
That being said, I am willing to bet they'll embrace a platform that is already widespread *cough* Android *cough*...
I would be happy to see Firefox OS catching on.....But slim chance they'll get picked by Nokia in case WP8 flops.
stingray71Yes, you can use google with other OS's but it seems to work much better with Android. Not to mention the nifty widgets that make it easy to check things at a glance.
Android on a Nokia phone would be a good combo imho. Especially with ICS and now Jellybean, I'd like to see a Nokia custom Android Rom.
As for W8, I have zero desire to try it out. Like mikeangs2004, I'm using Google products more and more, not to mention Google Tasks.
SGTgimpyAs being someone that has owned several iPhones and still owns Android Phones running CM7, I switched to Windows phone 7 as my main phone can tell you Microsoft will not fail with Windows Phone 7 or 8. Microsoft has definitely been doing some homework and there OS by far is the most stable as well as fastest I have seen, even over Jelly Bean. iOS is just dated and needs a massive overhaul to keep it relevant, Android is a fragmented mess and as we have already seen Google is beginning to take more control of it to try to make not such a broken turd. When Windows Phone 8 and Windows 8 hits, you will see the masses start to shift as long as MSFT doesn't screw up the Surface launch.

Under a misting light snow, "Grey's Anatomy" Emmy winner Katherine Heigl and musician Josh Kelley wed Sunday afternoon.
"Katherine Heigl and Josh Kelley were married in a private ceremony tonight, December 23rd in Deer Valley, Utah. The fairy tale wedding was described by guests as a 'winter wonderland,'" her publicist told Access.
The bride and groom met in 2005 when the actress appeared in the video for the singer / songwriter's music video for "Only You."
Fellow "Grey's" co-stars T.R. Knight told People that the ceremony was "incredible and beautiful." Other members of the "Grey's" family in attendance included Sandra Oh, Justin Chambers and "Private Practice's" Kate Walsh and her husband, Alex Young.
According to People, the ceremony took place, "in a small, private tent at the Stein Eriksen Lodge," and, the nuptials, "lasted about 30 minutes in an area decked out in white flowers and white candles. A walkway from the tent to the nearby reception was lined with white candles, illuminating the fresh snow."
The ceremony was conducted by Unitarian minister Tom Goldsmith. Katherine's bridal procession was to an acoustic song written by Kelley, and performed by a cellist and guitarist, People also reports.
OK reports that, "with tears filling the eyes of the 80 friends and family in attendance, the 29-year-old beauty looked exquisite in her traditional, white Oscar De La Renta gown, as she made her way down the aisle to a song written specifically for the ceremony by her waiting groom."
OK also reports that on Saturday, "Katherine and her gal pals celebrated her last day of single-hood with an all-day trip to the spa, complete with gifts from Victoria's Secret and buckets of champagne from Moet & Chandon."

"Gentlemen," declared Andrew Carnegie in 1904, "We live in a heroic age. Not seldom are we thrilled by deeds of heroism when men and women are injured or lose their lives in attempting to preserve or rescue their fellows; such are the heroes of civilization. The heroes of barbarism maimed or killed theirs."
If you want to find the true heroes of America today, the best place to look is on the sixteenth floor of an obscure office building in downtown Pittsburgh. There you'll find the headquarters of the Carnegie Hero Fund Commission, which since 1904 has awarded over 8,000 medals to persons who have risked their lives saving others.
The Carnegie Hero Fund is one of the less well-known of the charities created by the steel tycoon Andrew Carnegie; its investigators frequently have to tell people they're not selling Dale Carnegie courses or inviting them to play at Carnegie Hall. The fund's mission remains largely unchanged since Carnegie's time: to seek out North Americans who perform brave deeds and provide them with a medal and a $3,500 grant. In addition, widows and orphans receive Carnegie pensions, and some children of deceased Carnegie Medal winners receive college scholarships.
In 1999, 102 Carnegie Medals were awarded: 47 for saving people from fires, 20 from drowning, 11 for fending off animal attacks, 11 for assaults from criminals, five from electrocution, and one from suffocation. The youngest hero was Alana Franklin, 11, of Ocala, Florida, who helped free her six-year-old nephew from a gunman who was holding her family hostage. Two septuagenarians also received Carnegie Medals: Burnell Gilleland of Haskell, Texas, who died saving his grandson from a well filled with propane, and Frank S. Hedingham, of Lantzville, British Columbia, who helped fight off a bear in a provincial park.
In the early morning of January 25, 1904, the Allegheny Coal Company's mine in Harwick, Pennsylvania, exploded, killing 181. After the explosion, mining engineer Selwyn Taylor descended into the mine, rescuing one miner but dying afterward from poisonous gases he'd inhaled. Daniel Lyle, an off-duty miner, responded to a call for volunteers. Lyle spent the afternoon helping wounded survivors of the disaster to the surface. But as Lyle went deeper and deeper into the mine, he too was overcome by fumes and died.
Touched by the heroism of Taylor and Lyle, Carnegie ordered gold medals created to honor the two heroes and gave $40,000 to a fund created to assist victims of the disaster. But Carnegie wanted to do more. He had long been interested in ways to aid what he called "the swimming tenth—the industrious workers who keep their heads above water and help themselves." And as a fervent peace advocate, Carnegie believed those who died or injured themselves saving others deserved just as much respect as soldiers killed or wounded in battle.
So in March 1904, Carnegie donated "five million dollars of First Collateral Five Per Cent Bonds of the United States Steel Corporation" to create the Carnegie Hero Fund Commission. Smaller grants were used to create other hero funds in nine other countries.
"I do not expect to stimulate or create heroism by this fund, knowing full well that heroic action is impulsive," Carnegie declared, "but I do believe that, if the hero is injured in his bold attempt to serve or save his fellows, he and those dependent upon him should not suffer pecuniarily."
At the time of the Hero Fund's creation, Carnegie was hounded by the great and the good, who had plenty of ideas about how to spend his money. (Princeton, for example, sent a tag team of its president, Woodrow Wilson, and Grover Cleveland, at the time a Princeton trustee.) But no one suggested to Carnegie that he reward heroes; he thought it up on his own.
"Every other philanthropic fund that Carnegie had ever established had been proposed to him—often forced upon him—by others," notes Carnegie biographer Joseph Frazier Wall. "The Hero Fund came out of his own head and heart, and it delighted him." Perhaps it's because the Hero Fund was Carnegie's favorite among his charities that it remains the only national Carnegie philanthropy to remain in Pittsburgh, instead of being headquartered in New York or Washington.
How has the Fund changed over the years? The types of rescues have certainly changed over time. Carnegie Hero Fund executive director Walter Rutkowski has been looking at early cases; he tells TAE that 75 years ago, the fund gave many more awards to heroes who saved others from being trapped in wells, being mauled by runaway horses, or being stuck on an ice floe. Today, there are more rescues from burning cars than in the past. About two-thirds of the awards are usually given to heroes who save others from burning or drowning.
But the way cases are investigated would be familiar to Andrew Carnegie. The Hero Fund's clipping service sends about 80 clips a week to Pittsburgh, and each lead is carefully investigated. People who save others in the line of duty, such as police officers and firefighters, don't qualify nor do members of the military, although many off-duty police, firefighters, and soldiers have received awards. Children considered too young to know what they're doing aren't awarded medals. And rescuers who save the lives of family members only get medals when the rescuer dies or is severely injured.
Once ineligible cases are discarded, cases are then given to one of the four Carnegie Hero Fund case investigators. Case investigators are somewhat like insurance claims investigators, but they are more like newspaper reporters with very long deadlines. In fact, all four present investigators came to the fund with some experience in journalism.
Investigator Paul Snatchko came to the Hero Fund after a stint as a junior staff writer at the Washington, Pennsylvania Observer-Reporter. When he was a journalist covering a fire, Snatchko says, "I'd have two hours to cover the story. Now I have four months."
For most of the fund's history, investigators spent up to 40 weeks a year in the field. Their lives were the stuff of romance. A 1935 official history of the fund provides scores of stories of investigators paddling 25 miles down remote Canadian rivers (checking the speed of the current along the way), crossing impenetrable swamps, and dealing with such sinister characters as "Peg-leg Jones." Carnegie investigators, noted a 1909 article in Century Magazine, "go forth, each armed with a Kodak and a typewriter, to interview, to analyze, and to summarize."
The investigator's job remained unchanged for the fund's first 70 years. But in 1979, Carter administration economic policies placed the fund in dire peril. With the fund's endowment down to $9 million and double-digit inflation threatening further erosion, fund president Robert Off ordered investigators to cut down their trips in the field. By 1985, fund investigators stayed at their desks. (Although the endowment has now risen to $34 million, investigators have remained in the office.)
But even stuck in the office, Hero Fund investigators are extremely thorough. Consider how a journalist and a fund investigator might cover a rescuer who saved someone from drowning. The reporter on deadline might make a few calls to local lifeguards and to victims. But the Carnegie Hero Fund investigation manual lists 41 questions investigators have to ask someone who witnessed a drowning. How far away was the witness from the incident? How far away was the victim from the shore? What was the water temperature? Was there a current? Was there anything a rescuer could use to aid the victim? Were there lifeguards? How far away were they?
Carnegie investigators are also encouraged to leave their personal agendas at home. "Absolute objectivity should be your ideal," the manual states. "Purge yourself of all prejudice, including race, religion, station in society, political philosophy, and the like, none of which is relevant to your goal."
Investigators also have their own set of abbreviations. A rescuer is an RR. A rescued person is a QD. Eyewitnesses are EWs. Other frequently used abbreviations are WAA (witness after an accident), CW (character witness), WTC (witness to conditions), RPR (the person who first reported a case), and BB (burning building). The origins of these abbreviations are not known. They were used in an edition of the investigators' manual from the 1940s and were probably used for decades before that. But they're terms that generations of Hero Fund investigators have found very handy.
Once a case investigation is finished, the cases are then presented to the 21 members of the Carnegie Hero Fund Commission board. The board, composed of eminent Pittsburghers who serve without pay, then determines whether a rescuer "voluntarily risked his or her life to an extraordinary degree."
Walter Rutkowski, the Carnegie Hero Fund's executive director, says there's been a good deal of debate within the commission about what an "extraordinary degree" of heroism means. A rescuer, Rutkowski says, "has to face a real threat…he has to fight the shark, not the possibility of a shark."
But the board members, Rutkowski says, want to make sure that the achievements of Carnegie medalists are ones that ordinary people can duplicate. "We don't want people to be supermen, for Pete's sake," Rutkowski says. "In many cases, the water could be deeper, the fire could be hotter, the gun used by a criminal could be of larger caliber." Where the line is drawn, says Rutkowski, will be the subject of endless debate.
Once the board members decide which rescues are worthy of awards, they then determine how many people at each event deserve to receive medals. Usually each rescue results in one medal. Sometimes two people receive a medal for their heroic act. But a particularly ferocious bear resulted in five Carnegie Medals being awarded in 1999.
The bear went on a rampage in a provincial park in Fort Nelson, British Columbia, in August 1997. The beast's trail of terror included mauling Patti McConnell, of Paris, Texas; her 14-year-old son Kelly; Raymond Kitchen of Fort Nelson; Frank S. Hedingham of Lantzville, British Columbia; Ingrid Bailey of Felton, California; and Gary Richmond of Vancouver. After the bear was gunned down by provincial park rangers, Patti McConnell and Raymond Kitchen died, and Kelly McConnell was hospitalized for three months.
"This was one bad bear," says Carnegie investigator Marlin Ross. But by stepping in to fight the brute, Ingrid Bailey, Frank Hedingham, Raymond Kitchen, Kelly McConnell, and Gary Richmond all received Carnegie Medals (Kitchen's was awarded posthumously).
In the distant past, the Hero Fund awarded larger prizes to acts of large-scale heroism. A gold medal was struck to reward the sailors who rescued survivors of the Titanic (it's now in the Smithsonian). And after the San Francisco earthquake of 1906, an investigator was dispatched to that city with $55,000 in aid.
But these days, rewarding large-scale heroism taxes the Hero Fund's limited resources. Walter Rutkowski recalls that, after the Oklahoma City bombing of 1995, there was some discussion about whether to send investigators, but the fund decided the case was too complex for its resources. A similar reaction occurred after the 1989 San Francisco earthquake, which the fund's staff decided not to investigate after seeing a Newsweek cover story titled, "Heroes by the Hundreds." "It's just not viable for us to cover something like that," Rutkowski says.
Why do heroes act the way they do? What does it take for someone to save others from drowning, pull them out of a burning building, or pry them away from the claws of a savage bear?
Ask Walter Rutkowski this question, and he'll pull out a three-inch-thick file labeled "Theory." He refers back to Andrew Carnegie's notion that "heroic action is impulsive," but adds that, when medal recipients are asked this question, they usually respond, "I couldn't stand by and do nothing," or "I learned this in Sunday school," or "This is how I was brought up." "The basic reason people get involved is one word—empathy," Rutkowski says.
Investigator Marlin Ross, who has been working for the Hero Fund for nearly 20 years, has a favorite story involving a case where a 40-year-old man pulled a teenager out of a burning car. The teenager was clearly drunk. "I know when I was that age I did some stupid things," the hero told Ross.
"I just hope this guy lives long enough to tell his kids the same things."
The expert on what makes Carnegie heroes act is sociologist Samuel Oliner. An emeritus professor at Humboldt State University, Oliner knows the deeds of rescuers firsthand. A Holocaust survivor, Oliner was saved from Nazi tyranny by a Polish farm family who took him in and taught him enough of the catechism to enable him to pose as a Catholic until the end of the war.
Oliner has spent his professional life studying altruism. He's surveyed Christians and Jews who saved people from the Holocaust, hospice volunteers, and winners of the Congressional Medal of Honor and the Victoria Cross. He's surveyed 210 representative Carnegie Medalists for a book in progress.
According to Oliner, Carnegie Medalists tend to have several virtues in common. They were brought up with a sense that it was their duty to help others. They are self-confident people who believe they can perform dangerous deeds. They tend to have strong religious faith; if Christian, they tend to say, "Jesus would have wanted me to do this."
About 90 percent of the people Oliner surveyed were male. That's close to the historical average; since 1904, male Carnegie Medalists have outnumbered female ones by nine to one. Oliner believes this gender gap exists because "women are not expected to do dangerous things." (Rescues that involve less physical danger, such as hospice volunteers and Holocaust rescuers, tend to be more evenly split between the sexes.)
The heroes themselves are modest about why they did what they did. Clarence Purdy, a 70-year-old retired foreman from Columbia Falls, Montana, was celebrating his birthday in 1998 by picking apples and listening to a bluegrass concert. As he was heading home, he saw Jerry Pate's car on fire in a ditch. Purdy kicked out the glass in Pate's window, grabbed Pate, and dragged him away from the burning vehicle. Just as Purdy finished hauling Pate to safety, the car's battery exploded, engulfing the car in flames.
Purdy didn't have to stop. He had recently lost a leg due to a blood clot. And while he was dragging Pate to safety, many other cars roared past the narrow two-lane highway—some at 65 mph. "I did it because the guy was unconscious and he would have faded in three minutes," Purdy says. "I could have gone to get help, but I didn't have the time."
Kerry Clark became a hero in February 1999. He was sitting in the back yard of his farm in Medina, Ohio, walking his dog on a Sunday morning. It was a frosty winter day, and Clark saw a small airplane crash in the nearby woods. The plane was filled with agents of the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, and Firearms (BATF), and was on fire. In addition, the plane was packed with ammunition.
When Clark arrived, BATF agent Roger Guthrie, despite a broken ankle, was dragging his fellow passenger Eric Frey to safety. Clark, a tow-truck driver, had extensive experience in freeing people from wrecks; so he helped Guthrie drag Frey and the plane's unconscious pilot, David Hall, to safety. As Guthrie and Clark worked, ammunition exploded, adding to the danger.
"Somebody needed to help," Clark says. "You do it because you have to." (Agent Guthrie also received a Carnegie Medal, but declined to be interviewed.)
Stanton Thompson's moment of glory came during a severe thunderstorm on the evening of September 13, 1998. Thompson, who heads a county office of the U.S. Department of Agriculture, was helping a friend in Concordia, Missouri, run his ice cream shop when he heard cries for help. Three boys were playing in a drainage ditch and were swept 60 feet into a storm sewer. One of the boys managed to get out, but Gregory Kueck and Cameron Holsten were clinging on to metal reinforcement bars dangerously close to a raging waterfall.
Thompson had called 911, and firefighters had arrived on the scene and were trying to lower life jackets to the boys. But Thompson is no amateur; he's a Vietnam and Gulf War vet who's taken advanced Red Cross training. He saw that it would take too long for the lifejackets to reach the boys, who were cold, tired, and hanging on for their lives. "I looked at the sewer, sized up my ability, and went in," Thompson recalls.
As he walked toward Kueck, a sudden burst of water caused him to momentarily lose his balance, coming dangerously close to falling over the waterfall to his death. But Thompson managed to right himself and then grabbed a lifeline from the firefighters. He then attached lifejackets first to Kueck and then to Holsten and carried them both to safety.
"My mother and father were both farm people," Thompson said, "and one of the things you were taught on the farm was to help a neighbor in need." He adds that, religiously, he is "a devout person," and that after he was originally knocked down in the water, "something—I can't say what—allowed me to get aright in the sewer."
With his Carnegie Hero Fund grant, Thompson has set up a trust fund for the three boys' college education. He's also become good friends with the boys' parents—and makes sure he calls the boys whenever there's bad weather. "If there's another storm, the boys know they will hear from me," Thompson says.
The stories of Thompson, Clark, and Purdy are typical. There are scores of other heroes discovered by the fund, most ordinary Americans whose brave feats would have remained obscure if the Carnegie Hero Fund did not exist.
Of all the awards Walter Rutkowski has handed out, the one that gives him the greatest pleasure is the case of Gerald Yoribe, who died in 1986 saving his girlfriend, Tina Jung, from the treacherous waters off of San Francisco's Bodega Bay. The only notice of Yoribe's feat was two paragraphs in an obscure Japanese-American weekly newspaper. "If we hadn't found him, Yoribe would never have gotten any recognition," Rutkowski says.
So the Carnegie Hero Fund forges on, with its unique task of finding people who risked their lives saving others. And each one of the Carnegie Medalists fulfills a command Jesus made during the Last Supper, one that's inscribed on every Carnegie Medal: "Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends."

Just for a sense of perspective: The magazine maintains that there are roughly 1,200 for-profit frights, ranging from haunted houses, haunted hayrides to spooky corn mazes. Some 300 theme parks -- like Knott's 'Scary Farm' and Universal Studios -- also produce a themed event at this time of year. In addition, more than 3,000 charity attractions open for a few days prior to Halloween, charging admission to support a school or club, like the Boy Scouts.
Halloween is now the national second-largest commercial holiday, with roughly 90% of households with children participating in some sort of festivity.
The typical haunted attraction brings in about 8,000 paid guests, according to Hauntworld. But some of the biggest will attract literally hundreds of thousands. The price? Many haunted houses still charge $13 -- it's a themed price. But as haunted attractions have become increasingly sophisticated, many have also hiked their prices. Now most charge $15 "per event" -- in other words, a site that offers a haunted house; a hayride and a corn maze may charge separately for each. It can run $30 or more to get access to the entire site. The amusement park haunts are even more costly, setting visitors back as much as $65.
What are the top commercial haunts, according to Hauntworld? In the following pages, you'll find their top 14 (they call it the top 13 -- again for the theme -- but the #1 pick was a tie). Here's the top haunts; where they're located; what makes them special and what they cost.

Comfort food has made a sustained comeback, and macaroni and cheese is at the top of the list.
This white mac-and-cheese recipe includes the basic version and two variations. All can be served with or without toasted breadcrumbs on top.
The recipe uses Velveeta, which has consistent melting qualities and the flavor many of us are used to. It comes in two white-cheese styles: one plain, one spicy.
Buitoni Alfredo Sauce (in the refrigerated section) is a convenient starter, replacing a white sauce. Pico de gallo also is available in most grocery stores.
Make the topping in advance, and this is a quick last-minute dinner.
If you make this ahead to bake later, you might need to add additional pasta water or half-and-half before reheating, because the noodles tend to absorb water when made ahead.
Anne Greer McCann is a Dallas restaurant consultant.
2 1/2 cups uncooked macaroni
2 cups soft breadcrumbs (see Note)
3 tablespoons melted butter
1 (10-ounce) container Buitoni Alfredo Sauce
5 ounces white Velveeta cheese, cut in cubes
1/3 cup grated parmesan cheese
1/2 cup half-and-half or whole milk
Reserved pasta liquid (1/4 to 1/3 cup)
Salt and pepper to taste
Preheat the oven to 375 F.
Bring 10 cups salted water to a boil. Add macaroni and simmer until al dente, about 8 minutes total.
Toss breadcrumbs with melted butter and toast in the oven until lightly browned, about 20 minutes.
Drain pasta over a bowl, reserving about 1 cup cooking water. Return macaroni to the hot pan, allowing some water to cling to the pasta. Add Alfredo sauce, both cheeses and half-and-half or milk. Stir over medium to low heat until cheese is melted. Check consistency and add about 1/3 cup pasta water if needed.
Transfer to an 81/2-x-11-inch casserole. Top with breadcrumbs and serve immediately, or keep warm for 10 minutes in a 250 F oven. Makes 6 servings.
Note: To make breadcrumbs, coarsely chop 2 small hamburger buns and some parsley in a blender or food processor fitted with the metal blade. Toss with melted butter and toast as directed.
When making the mac and cheese 3 or 4 hours in advance, add 1/3 to 1/2 cup additional milk or half-and-half. Microwave on High (100 percent power) for about 8 to 10 minutes, stirring several times. Add breadcrumbs after re-heating.
PER SERVING: Calories 475 (47% from fat), Fat 25 g (15 g sat), Cholesterol 67 mg, Sodium 1,088 mg, Fiber 2 g, Carbohydrates 46 g, Protein 17 g
Chicken variation
Add cooked boneless chicken wings or 5 cooked chicken tenders, both cut in bite-size pieces (about 3 cups), to the finished macaroni. Top with breadcrumbs and keep warm in a 250 F oven until ready to serve.
Spicy variation
Add 3/4 to 1 cup pico de gallo and 1 (4-ounce) can diced green chiles, drained, after the cheese has melted. Top with about 1/2 cup crushed tortilla chips or buttered breadcrumbs. Keep warm for 10 minutes in a 250 F oven.

Elk River Figure Skating Club has made impressive showings recently, highlighted by Emily Halvorson becoming the fifth club member to earn double-gold status and McKenna Wilson winning top honors in a Green Bay event.
Halverson passed her seniors freestyle tests on Wednesday, Aug. 24, before United States Figure Skating Association judges at Augsburg College. She had passed Moves in the Field last year.
She joins her sister Rachel, along with Ashley and McKenna Wilson, and Rachel Green, as club members who've earned double gold. She will now compete in seniors starting with a meet Nov. 17 in Richfield.
"Emily is our latest and greatest double-gold, and now we have two sets of sisters, which is pretty neat," said coach Sandra Johansson.
She skated flawlessly, too."
The club had 12 skaters in a meet at Green Bay on Aug. 13-14, and placed first in 19 of 39 events. The skaters were McKenna Wilson, Julia Olson, Allison McLain, Alicen Whiting, Ashlee Hidde, Alli Hansen, Annelise Kruse, Caitlin Diedrich, Jordan Stanke, Annie Givens, Sophie Leither and Emma Leither.
Aristic Recall is a feature in which judges from the community (not skating judges) choose 20 skaters from a total of 69 artistic performances to compete against each other.
Three of the 20 picked were from the Elk River club — Ashlee Hiidde as Pocahontas, McKenna Wilson as Scar from the Lion King, and Annie Givens as Raggedy Ann. Each of their performances were choreographed by Johansson.
Wilson, a Ziimmerman senior-to-be, earned the gold medal.
"She had a phenomenal performance," said DeAnn Givens, one of the club's adult leaders.
The club had four skaters at the Minnesota State Figure Skating Championship in Eagan on August 19-21. Wilson placed fourth overall, Annie Givens placed eighth in Pre-Preliminary group, Caitlin Diedrich tied for fifth in her Preliminary group, and, Jenna Fromm placed 10th in her Preliminary group.
The next big competition will be the 2012 Upper Great Lakes Regional Championships at Richfield Ice Arena and hosted by the St. Paul Figure Skating Club, October 14 -18.

The pattern is markedly different in the five states that hug the Atlantic coast from Virginia to Florida, which together hold82 of the South's 160 electoral votes. A combination of a growing black population, urban expansion, oceanfront development and in-migration from other regions has opened up increasing opportunities for Democrats in those states.
"Georgia is an achievable target for Democrats in 2016," said Atlanta Mayor Kasim Reed, a frequent Obama surrogate during the campaign. "What you're going to see is the Democratic Party making a drive through the geography from Virginia to Florida."
That will be easier said than done — particularly when the Democratic nominee is not Obama — but powerful forces in the region are clearly eroding GOP dominance. The trends pose difficulties for a Republican Party that has been shifting toward Dixie since the "Southern strategy" of the Nixon era, which sought to encourage white flight from the Democratic Party.
In every Southern state except Louisiana, the population of African Americans grew substantially faster than that of whites over the past decade. The growth is fueled by black retirees from the north and rising numbers of young, well-educated blacks in prosperous cities such as Atlanta, Norfolk, Charlotte and Charleston, S.C.

Can debt relief companies charge advance fees?
A new rule that goes into effect Oct. 27, prohibits "companies that sell debt relief services over the telephone from charging fees before settling or reducing a customer's credit card or other unsecured debt," the Federal Trade Commission says.
The new advance fee ban states that fees for debt relief services can not be collected until:
• The debt relief service successfully settles or changes the terms of at least one of the consumer's debts;
• There is a settlement agreement, debt management plan, or other agreement between the consumer and the creditor that the consumer has agreed to; and
• The consumer has made at least one payment to the creditor as a result of the agreement negotiated by the debt relief provider.

In this age where smartphones users are surfing the web as much as PC owners, many websites have yet to launch mobile friendly versions of their pages. Today, Microsoft announced it has made some changes to its Windows.com website that will, in theory, offer mobile browser users a better experience.
The post on the Windows Experience blog states that the new changes will allow mobile web surfers to view and interact with Windows.com without the need to zoom in to read content or to zoom out to navigate on the site. It states:
Not only do text and images now scale themselves appropriately, but some content elements will close themselves to save space, so you can view entire pages at a readable size more easily. For example, tabs will become expandable sections, which you can open or close by tapping or clicking. The navbar also gracefully gets out of the way to save space, and you can get it back by tapping or clicking on its icon.
The new changes are also available in Windows 8 when the Windows.com website is viewed in Internet Explorer 10 via "Snap View" mode. Hopefully these changes will be extended to other Microsoft websites in the future.
