Not a single stoplight exists in all of Franklin County, Florida. Good luck finding a person outside the county boundaries, even a native Floridian, who has heard of it, or the coastal town of Carrabelle.
Yet there was no mistaking when our 350-mile drive across horse ranchlands and the renown Florida swamp had landed us in Franklin County. Starting at the county line was a strip of still-black asphalt with freshly painted lines – a Florida Scenic Byway rebuilt after a full moon, high tide and Hurricane Dennis combined in 2005 to wash out the road. Between the canopies of towering slash pines, dirt was in the process of being moved. And along the waterfront, the newness of a city dock, launch ramp and privately-owned marinas came to a head in, of all things, an immaculate public fish-cleaning station with stainless-steel fixtures and granite countertops.
"You don't find a place like this anywhere else; I call it 'rural coastal'," said David Allen, owner of Allen's Dockside Marine. Since Allen took over the marina in January 2008, his crews have cleaned up 200 tons of concrete, metal, old vehicles and other eyesores, most of which has been rolled into an artificial reef for St. George Sound. "We see potential, and how far a little effort will go. The goal is to strike a balance between new and tradition."
The new is in progress. The tradition is ingrained in Carrabelle's fabric. Shrimp boats that remain from a struggling industry are moored along the Carrabelle River. The only breakfast joint, Carrabelle Junction, takes no credit cards, but trusts that patrons without cash will make good on their bills. And the white sands of Carrabelle Beach are still considered hallowed ground because of the thousands of World War II soldiers who trained here for the amphibious invasion of Normandy.
"I'm all for progress, as long as we don't forget," said Carrabelle mayor Curly Messer, finishing breakfast at Carrabelle Junction. The five-time mayor first came to Carrabelle from Kentucky in 1942 to train with a quarter million troops, met his future wife, and then moved here after the war. He's also an expert at changing subjects. "There's no better fishing anywhere. You been fishing yet?"
About three hours later, the answer would be yes. This after Dan Ausley, a real-estate broker in Florida's panhandle, piloted his Allbury Brothers 23 center console out the mouth of the Carrabelle River and headed three miles across the Sound to his family's getaway home on Dog Island. There, a strip of sand maybe 60 yards wide separated the Sound on one side from the Gulf on the other. Cruise south and you'd hit land in Honduras. To the north Carrabelle's waterfront is getting closer to Dog Island every year as winds from the Gulf push the island toward the mainland.
"We gained two feet of beach on this side since last week," said Ausley, looking at a new buildup of sand under the dock anchored in the Sound.
A few minutes later, a fishing rod bent over hard. Jacqueline, 7, was on the dock reeling in her first-ever saltwater fish, a sheepshead. Next to her, 8-year-old Mya was about to do the same. Flush with success, they and their sisters hustled to the beach to pick through the latest wash-up of shells.
"People ask what's the worst thing about Dog Island," said Ausley. "I say, 'It's hard to get to.' Then they ask what's the best thing about it. I say, 'It's hard to get to.'"
On the way back to Carrabelle the boat came nose-to-nose with three dolphins near the inlet. "Recreational boaters can't go wrong here," said Ausley. "If it's windy you can go for miles upriver and fish for bass and brim. Tarpon are pretty easy to find in the bay and right into the river. Shelling, kayaking, it all helps maintain that balance between the newness and the character."
This was echoed by Lesley Cox, a certified green guide at an overlook in Tate's Hell State Forest. The forest, which includes the world's largest collection of dwarf cypress trees, is among the 80 percent of Franklin County that's protected land.
"It's delicate when a town is literally surrounded by forest, Gulf waters and rivers," said Cox. "You want people to enjoy it and maintain it at the same time. That's why the boaters here are an advantage. They know as well as anyone how important it is to protect what we have."
This is why, instead of introducing stoplights and four-lane roads to the community, Carrabelle has invested in docks, ramps and the best fish-cleaning station you've ever seen.

Wildcats earn a top seed in D3 playoffs
Nov 11, 2012
By Ben Schorzman
Of the News-Register
The Linfield Wildcats are going back to the NCAA Division III playoffs.
What has seemed inevitable for a month was finally realized Sunday afternoon when Linfield (9-0) was awarded a No. 1 seed in its part of the bracket, and it will play at noon Saturday vs. Northwest Conference opponent Pacific Lutheran. Linfield defeated the Lutes 31-24 Sept 24.
The Wildcats defeated Pacific to finish the regular season undefeated and win their fourth consecutive NWC championship.
While it wasn't confirmed Sunday, it appears as if the Wildcats are also the tournament's No. 1-seeded team. According to D3Football.com, traditionally the semifinalist hosts are the first and last teams listed on the brackets. At the top of the 2012 bracket is Linfield and at the bottom is No. 1-ranked Mount Union.
If the Wildcats beat Pacific Lutheran (7-2), they would play the winner of the Cal Lutheran-North Central game. The Kingsmen (8-1) earned a home game in the playoffs for the first time in school history. For the past three seasons Cal Lu has been eliminated from the playoffs by Linfield.
The Wildcats defeated Cal Lu 33-30 Sept. 15 on the road.
Linfield also has No. 4-ranked St. Thomas and No. 5-ranked Wisconsin-Oshkosh on its side of the bracket.
The Wildcats made it to the second round of the NCAA playoffs last season. They lost at Wesley.

Best Uses
I bought this set for my father so I was able to compare it to my Makita set. The P-C tools are powerful, the battery holds enough juice to pretty much run all day, but they are heavier and not as well balanced as the Makita tools.
Best Uses
The portable battery charger seems a bit light duty for field use.
Best Uses
Comes with batteries! After seeing 2 batteries at Lowe's for $60, I decided to take a chance on this package. Great decision. Not only did I get the 2 batteries, but a drill and impact driver for essentially $20! CPO easy to deal with. Shipped in timely manner. Will definitely buy from CPO again.
Best Uses
I use porter cable products often. trying out a new brand. other than Milwaukee, and dewalt but products are geared toward home owners than contractors. love your product but need to be more heavy duty. the prices is great.

None, of you 3 fellers should even consider hanging it up on this site, Ya'llare my HERO's
Never thought I would have degenerative spine disease, but there you have it. Nothing personal.
Maybe it's time I quit hanging around here so much.
Well, you bypassed the main board to force it to run, so the symptoms now are a sealed system issue on the FF side. Whether a leak or a restriction, this will have to be determined by a certified refrigeration tech. All of this will cost about 1/3 the cost of replacing this unit.BTW, SubZeros always have access valves or pinch-off tubes to do sealed-system diagnostics from. If the unit is low on Freon or runs excessively, it will cut out. If you don't know what type of refrigerant it has, read the model plate...it says what kind and how much.

NEW ORLEANS (AP) BP says engineers have delayed until Tuesday a test on whether it can begin pumping mud into the blown-out Gulf of Mexico well in hopes of choking it for good.
The company said in a statement Monday the test was pushed back a day after a small leak was discovered in the hydraulic control system.
The test will last several hours. It involves probing the busted blowout preventer with an oil-like liquid to decide if it can handle the static kill process.
If the test is successful, the company plans to start slowly pumping the heavy mud down the well as early as Tuesday.
BP engineers say the static kill may permanently plug the well but they may not know for sure until they finish a relief well in another week or so.

10/07/2009 - Investing public money in high-quality pre-kindergarten education is an opportunity our country cannot afford to pass up. Pre-k returns up to $7 for every dollar invested, and four decades of research show that it provides the foundation for building a strong workforce for future generations. That's why Democrats and Republicans have increased state funding for preschools by more than $2 billion and enrollment in state-run pre-k programs has grown by more than 330,000 since 2004.Despite the impressive funding gains, though, less than 30% of the nation's 3- and 4-year-olds are served by publicly funded early education. Worse, almost half a million children from low-income families are among those being left behind. Federal action is needed urgently to reinforce states' progress and accelerate the growth of early learning programs.Data collected by the Pew Center on the States' pre-k Now campaign show that 28 states increased or held steady pre-kindergarten funding for Fiscal Year 2010 – astonishing given the fiscal stress that states are under and a clear signal of the value placed on pre-k. But budget gaps are projected to persist, and in some cases widen, over the next two years. Cuts like those in Ohio, where 12,000 children lost pre-k opportunities, foreshadow trouble ahead.A new federal proposal focused on children, the Early Learning Challenge Fund, which the U.S. Senate is taking up in October, is a promising but incomplete plan in need of critical improvements. The challenge fund would offer $1 billion per year for eight years in competitive grants to states, to improve quality and coordination among programs serving children from birth to age 5. The version of the bill approved this month by the U.S. House, however, lacks incentives to encourage significant expansions of high-quality early learning programs.The Senate could strengthen the bill considerably by making the following changes:

STD supports at least 21 languages.
252 characters
Catalog number: 167350597
Tag: liga
Function: Replaces a sequence of glyphs with a single glyph which is preferred for typographic purposes. This feature covers the ligatures which the designer/manufacturer judges should be used in normal conditions. The glyph for ffl replaces the sequence of glyphs f f l.
Tag: calt
Function: In specified situations, replaces default glyphs with alternate forms which provide better joining behavior. Used in script typefaces which are designed to have some or all of their glyphs join. In Caflisch Script, o is replaced by o.alt2 when followed by an ascending letterform.
Tag: subs
Function: The "subs" feature may replace a default glyph with a subscript glyph, or it may combine a glyph substitution with positioning adjustments for proper placement. Recommended implementation: First, a single or contextual substitution lookup implements the subscript glyph (GSUB lookup type 1). Then, if the glyph needs repositioning, an application may apply a single adjustment, pair adjustment, or contextual adjustment positioning lookup to modify its position.
Tag: clig
Function: Replaces a sequence of glyphs with a single glyph which is preferred for typographic purposes. Unlike other ligature features, clig specifies the context in which the ligature is recommended. This capability is important in some script designs and for swash ligatures. The glyph for ft replaces the sequence f t in Bickham Script, except when preceded by an ascending letter.

Hand Warmer Keeps You Toasty Without Fire
The Zippo Hand Warmer is a stylish hand warmer in that classic Zippo style. It costs $30, and can warm up to 24 hours with only 0.4 oz of fuel. Not only that, but the unit uses a platinum-catalyzed glass fiber burner, which means no actual flame to set your pants on fire.

Back-up your tab and perform the advised factory reset.
After that your tab will be running like a dream.

Re: 4.2.2 and Netflix
Hi Darin Gallagher,
There are plenty of different ways to back up your tablet.
But really the simplest way to do it is using the software already installed on the tablet.
1- Google account
2- Samsung backup
3- Dropbox.
4- Kies
Google will restore your apps and your contacts, etc.
Samsung will restore your settings, etc.
Dropbox the best way to save your media, etc.
You can also use kies on your pc to back your stuff.
All the stuff stored on the external sd card is safe and will not be affected by the factory reset.
if your games are online? Than there shouldn't be any problem as the servers will remember the level you playing. But yes you might have a problem with offline games.
Sorry if my explanation is not clear enough,
But just look in the "settings / cloud / back up and restore" in your tablet and all should be explained.

Re: 4.2.2 and Netflix
Android firmware updates need a factory reset after performing the update on the device.
That is important for the integrity of the update to take effect... otherwise the old links will conflict with the new ones and resulting in software crashes and malfunctioning apps.
Not many people are aware of that but in part is fault of the manufacturer's not advertising the issue.
But just keep that in mind for future reference.

Re: 4.2.2 and Netflix
Good to know. I was not aware of that. It would be a good thing for the manufacturers to tell us this after each update. On another note, I did lose saved stuff on one of my games. I had gotten pretty far on it too. Oh well. Such is life. I think I would rather have my Tab running better, so this was a big plus. Thanks again, Smokey!

Re: 4.2.2 and Netflix
I may have come to the conclusion that my internet here isn't the fastest for running Netflix. It is only a 3 mbps connection. What gets me is that it ran with no problem before the update. I cleared the app data which helped for about 15 minutes, then it started stuttering and buffering again. I have no problems with any other video apps, especially YouTube, which everyone seems to have a problem with. I may just have to cancel my Netflix subscription if this doesn't get resolved. Hey, it'll save me 8 bucks a month.

Re: 4.2.2 and Netflix
4.2.2 hasn't been good to me either, my tab stutters and lags when it used to be near perfect and hulu and Netflix are completely unusable even after reset. Does any one have a solution other than rooting?
Btw its not just hulu and netflix for me, the lock screen lags and scrolling through the various screens stutters and lags as well

Erlinder was hospitalized last week after Rwandan authorities claimed he attempted to commit suicide [JURIST report] while being held in prison. Erlinder was reportedly found semiconscious [New Times report] in his cell Wednesday morning as police attempted to summon him for further questioning. According to Dr. Daniel Nyamaswa, Director of the National Police Hospital at Kacyiru [official website] where Erlinder was initially hospitalized, Erlinder took up to 50 pills of prescription medications intended to treat depression and high blood pressure. Erlinder later explained in a message to his family that he took the overdose in order to be transferred to a hospital to escape the poor conditions of his holding cell [AP report], which he shares with several others. Police officials claimed Erlinder had confirmed that the overdose was a suicide attempt made because the sentence he could face if convicted of genocide denial could be as long as 25 years, effectively "life" for the 62-year-old lawyer. Officials have said they will wait until Erlinder has recovered [allAfrica report] before deciding if they will charge him with attempted suicide, a criminal offense in Rwanda. Rwandan police arrested Erlinder [JURIST report] last week while he was in Rwanda to prepare his defense of opposition presidential candidate Victoire Ingabire Umuhoza [campaign website], who was arrested [JURIST report] last month on similar charges. International groups including the National Lawyers Guild, the International Criminal Defence Attorneys Association, and the National Association of Criminal Defense Lawyers [advocacy websites] have called for Erlinder's release [press release], saying that the charges are politically motivated [AP report].
Human rights have long been a major concern in the DRC. In December, HRW urged the UN Organization Mission in DR Congo (MUNOC) [official website] to stop funding military groups [JURIST report] in the country that are committing human rights abuses. In December 2008, AI reported that rape and sexual warfare have been employed [JURIST report] by both the DRC military and by rebel forces. In November 2008, MUNOC head Alan Doss [appointment release] condemned [JURIST report] the killing of civilians by militias in the country as war crimes. MONUC has been operating in DRC since 1999. The conflict in the DRC [Global Security backgrounder] has claimed more than four million lives and has been ongoing since 1983. MONUC has overseen elections and continues to provide armed protection for civilians in certain areas, particularly the North and South Kivus provinces.
When borrowers fall behind on their payments, Defendants obtain a number of default-related services (such as property inspections and foreclosure trustee services) by funneling the work through a panoply of Countrywide subsidiaries. As a matter of practice, Defendants and the subsidiaries add a substantial mark-up to their actual costs for the services and then charge the borrower the marked-up fees. Defendants' marked-up fees violate the mortgage contract because they exceed the actual cost of the services and are not reasonable and appropriate to protect the note holder's interest in the property and rights under the security instrument. Borrowers do not have any choice in who performs default-related services or the cost of those services, and they do not have the option to shop for those services.
In February, a district court judge accepted a $150 million dollar settlement agreement [JURIST report] between BOA and the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) [official website]. The SEC had charged [JURIST report] BOA with misleading investors regarding billions of dollars paid to Merrill Lynch [corporate website] executives during the acquisition of the firm. The judge twice rejected a proposed settlement [JURIST report] between the SEC and BOA for $33 million, which did not admit any fault or directly penalize any corporate executives, calling the settlement unfair to the shareholders.
Also Monday, the Supreme Court in a per curiam order [text, PDF] sent a certified question to the Montana Supreme Court [official website] in the case of US v. Juvenile Male, suspending proceedings until the Montana court responds. The question seeks to determine if there is still a live controversy in the case because the challenged federal sex offender registration has expired. The defendant was found delinquent by the US District Court for the District of Montana in 2005 after pleading "true" to engaging in sex acts with a minor under 12, and was later required to register as a sex offender under the Sex Offender Registration and Notification Act of 2006 [text]. On appeal, the defendant challenged this registration on ex post facto [Cornell LII backgrounder] grounds in the US Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit. The Ninth Circuit ruled [opinion text] in favor of the defendant, finding an ex post facto violation. The certified question asks whether the ongoing sex offender registration required under state law is dependent upon the defendant's former federal sex offender registration, which would indicate a live dispute, or is required independent of federal law, rendering the ex post facto claim moot.
Information in the plaintiff's possession is relevant only if it bears on the defendant understanding of whether the plaintiff made a mistake regarding the proper party identity. For purposes of that inquiry, it would be error to conflate knowledge of a party's existence with the absence of mistake. ... That a plaintiff knows of a party's existence does not preclude her from making a mistake with respect to that party's identity.
The court granted certiorari [JURIST report] in the case to resolve a circuit split over the definition of "mistake" within the rule. The petitioner in the case filed suit after suffering an injury on a cruise ship owned and operated by Costa Crociere S.p.A. (Costa Crociere). The petitioner's attorney originally filed suit against Costa Crociere's booking company Costa Cruise, N.V., LLC. After being notified of the mistake the petitioner filed an amended complaint against the correct party. The statute of limitations had run on Costa Crociere's liability, resulting in the need for rule 15(c)(1)(C).
[R]espondent's argument is supported by the ordinary meaning of the term "projected." ... Here, the term "projected" is not defined, and in ordinary usage future occurrences are not "projected" based on the assumption that the past will necessarily repeat itself. For example, projections concerning a company's future sales or the future cash flow from a license take into account anticipated events that may change past trends. On the night of an election, experts do not "project" the percentage of the votes that a candidate will receive by simply assuming that the candidate will get the same percentage as he or she won in the first few reporting precincts. While a projection takes past events into account, adjustments are often made based on other factors that may affect the final outcome. ... Second, the word "projected" appears in many federal statutes, yet Congress rarely has used it to mean simple multiplication. For example, the Agricultural Adjustment Act of 1938 defined "projected national yield," "projected county yield," and "projected farm yield" as entailing historical averages "adjusted for abnormal weather conditions," "trends in yields," and "any significant changes in production practices." By contrast, we need look no further than the Bankruptcy Code to see that when Congress wishes to mandate simple multiplication, it does so unambiguously—most commonly by using the term "multiplied."
Respondent filed for bankruptcy protection in October 2006. During the period preceding this, she had received a buy-out from a former employer, inflating her income for the six month period that was to serve as a basis for calculating her projected disposable income. The court heard oral arguments [transcript, PDF; JURIST report] in the case in March. In November, the court granted certiorari [JURIST report], limiting its grant of certiorari to "[w]hether, in calculating the debtor's 'projected disposable income' during the plan period, the bankruptcy court may consider evidence suggesting that the debtor's income or expenses during that period are likely to be different from her income or expenses during the pre-filing period."
The statute's language and purpose, taken together, support the BOP's method. That method tracks § 3624(b)'s language by providing a prisoner a maximum credit of 54 days for each full year of imprisonment and a proportionally adjusted amount of credit for any additional time served that is less than a full year. The BOP's method also furthers the basic purpose of the statute...[which is] the sentence the judge imposed would be the one the offender actually served, with a sole statutory exception for good time credits. Section 3624(b) states the reason for the exception: to provide an incentive for prisoners to "compl[y] with institutional disciplinary regulations." The exception is limited and tailored to its purpose - credit is earned at the end of the year after compliance with institutional rules is demonstrated and thereby rewards and reinforces a readily identifiable period of good behavior. The BOP's approach furthers § 3624's objectives by tying the award directly to good behavior during the preceding year.
The ruling stemmed from two Ninth Circuit cases that were consolidated under the Supreme Court's grant of certiorari [JURIST report]. Petitioners Michael Barber and Tahir Jihad-Black are serving sentences in federal prison for various gun and drug charges. Under the petitioners' proposed method of awarding credit for "time imposed," federal prisoners would receive good time credits for years they do not end up serving. The petitioners argued that even if the law is ambiguous, the court should apply the rule of leniency, which states that the court should err on the side of the defendant when ruling on an ambiguous statute. The court disagreed stating that the BOP's method was a clear and natural interpretation of the statute and therefore could not be struck by the court.
[T]he Bush administration's legal framework to protect CIA interrogators from violating US statutory and treaty obligations prohibiting torture effectively contravened well-established legal and ethical codes, that, had they been enforced, should have protected prisoners against human experimentation, and should have prevented the "enhanced" interrogation program from being initiated in the first place. There is no evidence that the Office of Legal Counsel ever assessed the lawfulness of the medical monitoring of torture, as it did with the use of the "enhanced" techniques themselves.
This report is the latest incident in a long string of medical condemnations of Guantanamo Bay [JURIST news archive] and the medical professionals working in it. Last April, the International Committee of the Red Cross [official website] released a report [text, PDF] alleging that medical professionals violated codes of medical ethics [JURIST report] by participating in and assisting in ill-treatment of Guantanamo Bay detainees. In September 2007, doctors from 16 countries wrote a letter [JURIST report] condemning the US military for its treatment of detainees, particularly the policy of force-feeding to counteract hunger strikes. A month earlier, a commentary [text] published in the Journal of the American Medical Association [journal website] asserted that force-feeding was a violation of medical ethics [JURIST report].
Israel is a democracy. Israel has the ability and the right to investigate itself, not to be investigated by any international board. I don't think the United States would want an international inquiry into its military activities in Afghanistan, for example. ... We are rejecting the idea of international commission and we're discussing with the Obama administration the way in which our inquiry will take place, but the notion of an international commission coming along and judging Israel's right to defend itself, that's not admissible. ... At the end of the day, Israel has the right, the duty as a democracy to investigate any military activity.
The UN Human Rights Council [official website] on Wednesday condemned [JURIST report] Israel's raid on the ships and initiated an independent investigation into possible violations of international law. The resolution was adopted by a vote of 32 to 3 with 9 abstentions and authorizes the president of the council to appoint members to the panel conducting the investigation. The US government indicated Tuesday that it was opposed to the resolution [press release], but urged the Israeli government to conduct a transparent investigation. Also Tuesday, the UN Security Council [official website] called [JURIST report] for a "prompt, impartial, credible and transparent investigation" into the raid. The Security Council's statement came one day after Ban and UN High Commissioner for Human Rights Navi Pillay [official profiles] both condemned [statement text] the Israeli action and called for an independent inquiry [press release]. The Turkish ship on which the violence occurred [ABC report] was one of six organized [Guardian backgrounder] by the Free Gaza Movement [advocacy website] to carry protesters and humanitarian supplies to the isolated Palestinian enclave. The Gaza naval blockade began in 2007 after Hamas [CFR backgrounder] forcibly expelled [BBC report] their chief rival, Fatah [CFR backgrounder] from Gaza. In 2006, Hamas was elected [JURIST report] as the ruling party of the Palestinian Authority after unbroken rule by Fatah. In January 2008, then-UN High Commissioner on Human Rights Louise Arbour condemned the blockade [JURIST report], describing it as collective punishment.
[I]n terms of privacy, clearly Australians have concerns about what's happening at the moment, on privacy, particularly online. There was a survey in one of today's papers that talks about 73 percent of Australians want better privacy from organizations like Google and Facebook. So what's really important is that these companies, even though they're based overseas, understand that Australia has privacy laws and Australians expect that those privacy laws will be honored.
Australia's investigation follows a similar inquiry by Canada into Google's privacy law violations. Last week, Canadian Privacy Commissioner Jennifer Stoddart [official website] announced that an investigation has been launched [JURIST report] into unsecured Wi-Fi data collection by Google vehicles, mounted with 360-degree cameras, for the company's Street View service. The investigation will determine whether Google has violated Canada's Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act (PIPEDA) [text, PDF], which applies to private organizations that collect, use, or disclose personal information in the course of commercial activities. Google is also facing an investigation by the US Federal Trade Commission (FTC) [official website] after an inquiry into Google's data-harvesting techniques was requested by advocacy group Consumer Watchdog [press release]. Australia also joins Belgium, the UK, the Czech Republic, France, Germany, Italy, Spain, and Switzerland in asking Google to retain data collected in those respective nations.
The 1984 Bhopal disaster caused an international outcry over the activities of Western chemical manufacturing in India and the developing world. A number of environmental groups, including Greenpeace [advocacy website], have called for Union Carbide and its parent company, Dow Chemicals [corporate website], to be brought to justice [Greenpeace backgrounder] for the after-effects of the disaster. In 2008, the US Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit [official website] reinstated a water pollution lawsuit [JURIST report] brought by disaster victims against Union Carbide. In 2004, groups representing Bhopal victims appealed a $330 million award [JURIST report] issued by the Indian Supreme Court, arguing that the award should be quadrupled to provide enough compensation for each of the 572,173 people that the court ruled were eligible.

Xpress was in the control room to bring you this inside look:
More about the film, from co-writer/director Dan Bush:
"William Blakely tried to escape his own life by cloning himself. As the lead scientist at Next Corporation, a government-contracted genetics lab, he knew exactly how to do this. But 'The Proxy' isn't only about cloning. It's a love story and a thriller cloaked in science fiction. When William Blakely wakes from a deep sleep with fragmented memories, he must learn who he is from his mysterious twin brother, Edward. But the closer he gets to Jules, his estranged wife, the more he realizes that his memories are not his own; that his identity is not his own.
"'The Proxy' is about two competing forces in the world - fear and love. On the one hand we see the story through Edward's eyes as he transforms from a clone, desperate for a sense of belonging, to a deranged murderer out for revenge. On the other hand, we see the story from William's perspective, an innocent who, mesmerized by the enigmatic and beautiful Jules, has fallen in love and will do anything to save her. This is a story about belonging, identity and fate. It asks the basic question: Has our idea of fate been replaced by genetics? And then: If we are defined by our DNA, then what does it mean to be a human being?"

God will have the last say about this Obama-Biden mess.
You all need to forget how the Mountaineers are doing and worrying about a new coach and worry about the joke that is ruining our country.
Why is it the only place you can hear someone brag about our president is anonymously?
A Christian vote for Obama is by far the worst, and it's permanently on your conscience. Obviously almighty God is playing second fiddle and not very high on your priorities.
I am a very old West Virginia fan, and I must admit that Mr. Holgorsen is making Mr. Stewart look pretty good these days.
West Virginia's defense couldn't stop anybody if you gave them guns.
The strikers that caused Hostess Twinkies to go out: I hope that they think they can find a job. There's none out there.
The [Mountaineer football team] was once fifth in the nation. Now they've lost five in a row. How about that Big 12?
Yeah, the Democrats are determined to raise taxes. They never mention cutting spending. They resent people that work hard and try to be successful.
I guess Joe and Gayle waited until after the election before Gayle cast her vote to fire Jorea Marple. Politics are so dirty. I will never vote for Joe Manchin again. This was so wrong.
The election has been over now for 12 days, and here in the greater Cross Lanes area, we still have campaign signs out. Please remove your signs as required by law.
Who are the real victims in the firing of Jorea Marple? Did they consider the children in their secret meeting or was it a selfish, greedy power play? Think about it. Who pays the highest price?
Racism is a horrible blight upon modern humanity ... I just wonder what President Obama says in his private time alone with his friends after having had 20 years of teaching under Rev. Jeremiah Hate.
Why didn't the state Board of Education handle things better? Seems to be too many chiefs there. Sadly the kids are the casualties.
My Humana health insurance refused to pay for my doctor's antibiotic prescription because of "my age and I did not get preapproval." I wish they would just sit me out on an ice floe.

First Apple TVs to come this summer at 32 and 37 inches?
Rumors of Apple TV sets have been swirling for months. And the Taiwanese publication DigiTimes added to the mix today, with word that its supplier sources say Apple is ordering components to build 32-inch and 37-inch TVs that should go on sale in the second half of 2012.
There have been rumors floating around for years that Apple is building its own TV. The speculation got amped up this fall after Walter Isaacson revealed in his biography of former Apple CEO Steve Jobs that Apple had finally figured out how to build a user-friendly integrated TV.

Delivering quality to the world Shetland Catch is the largest pelagic factory of its kind in Europe. Remotely located in the wild, clean waters of the North Atlantic - we are where the fish are. This means that we can guarantee our customers worldwide the freshest frozen mackerel and herring on the market.
Latest News
Shetland Catch had a big team present at the ESE Brussels 2013 Show, held between the 23-25 April. Our stand was incredibly busy on the first 2 days and sometimes we struggled to cope with the number of visitors. It was great to see you all again and we would like to thank everybody for taking the time to visit us during the Show and for your custom over the past year. We would also like to thank Susan and her fantastic team at Frogworks who build our stand and keep the bar well stocked!
Our mackerel season has been quite successful this year and we have had a high speed of sales since the beginning of January. We hope for the same results from our next mackerel season, which should start in September with purse seiner catches by Scandinavian vessels. The catching grounds are very close to Shetland for the entirety of the autumn season so this means the mackerel are usually fresher when landed in Shetland than at any other factory. Please contact us at email@example.com if you are interested to buy any mackerel from us next season.
Our factory has been quiet since our NVG herring season in February but our engineering team have been busy making improvements in time for our North Sea herring season, which will hopefully start in June. We plan to produce skinless fillets and flaps in a variety of sizes so please contact us at firstname.lastname@example.com if you have an interest.
We will be visiting the Polfish Show again this year, held between the 22-24 May. We look forward to meeting our regular Polish and Eastern European customers as well as some new ones. Its held in a new exhibition centre next to the football stadium in Gdansk so it will be interesting to see how it compares with the old exhibitions. Please contact us at firstname.lastname@example.com or call + 44 (0) 1595 69 5740 if you would like to arrange a meeting with us.

Shetland Catch investor Norway Pelagic has announced that it will increase its investment in the Shetland-based pelagic processor by £3 million, raising its shareholding from 25 to 50 per cent.
Chairman of Shetland Catch, John Goodlad, said:" We are delighted that Norway Pelagic has chosen to make such a substantial investment in Shetland Catch. This investment reflects a wider confidence in the pelagic industry at the moment. It also recognises the huge potential which Shetland Catch has to develop its business."
Shetland Catch managing director, Simon Leiper, said: This is very good news for Shetland Catch. While we will continue to operate independently, we very much look forward to working with our partners in Norway and planning for the future with confidence."
Tor Vikenes, CEO of Norway Pelagic said: "We have increased our stake in Shetland Catch because of its excellent strategic location especially in relation to the attractive Mackerel and North Sea Herring fisheries. Shetland Catch has an experienced management team and we look forward to working with our partners in Shetland."
Norway Pelagic made its initial investment of £1.533 million in Shetland Catch in 2007.

Comment: Re:RTFA, only in the tropics (Score 2) 112
True on both. The idea has been around long enough to know the more obvious limitations. You need warm surface waters and access to deep cold water. Back in the 70's the only US sites viewed as suitable for land based OTEC was Hawaii and the territory of Puerto Rico. There were designs for grazing platforms that could float in tropical deep water but the problem was always how to get the energy from the platform to where it is needed. Biofouling is a tremendous problem as well. I think that it is a pretty sound concept but like most others, there is a lot of engineering needed to make it all work.
