Best MP for demonic essences
#2 6/24/2013 10:48:32 AMNot exactly surprising, thought it was already known that the "lower" MP levels are more efficent due to the immense health increase on the higher levels.
Though I'd like to see the numbers for a say, decently geared TR monk on MP2-5 or so, I'd assume that'll get more essences.
Probably all other classes can go as low as they want due to not having WotB and the faster they kill, the less likely they are to get stuck in some CC.Rollback Post to Revision RollBack -

Movie News
Capone seriously believes anyone with their name in the credits of PARENTAL GUIDANCE deserves a smack!!!
Hey everyone. Capone in Chicago here.
Is there a less inspired filmmaker than Andy Fickman? I'm sure there is, but for the 104 minutes of my life that I'll never get back watching PARENTAL GUIDANCE, I was hard pressed to think of one. If you didn't know better (and I don't), you could almost envision a scenario where Fickman actually hates his audience, but thanks to his semi-hit THE GAME PLAN (with Dwayne Johnson learning he's the father of an 8-year-old girl), I guess he gets to insult us with movie after movie like SHE'S THE MAN; his re-teaming with The Rock, RACE TO WITCH MOUNTAIN; and truly one of the most appalling films in the last five years, YOU AGAIN.
PARENTAL GUIDANCE isn't offensive (if anything, it's sickeningly sweet) or rip-roaringly dumb. It just sits there being obvious, predictable and trite. Billy Crystal and Bette Midler play two old people, so you can guess the jokes that come flying out of their mouths like a soft bowel movement. Crystal is a baseball announcer for a minor league team, who is fired when the team decides to modernize the franchise. When his daughter (Marisa Tomei) and her husband (Tom Everett Scott) decide to take their first vacation together in years, they call on the grandparents to babysit for the first time. Tomei is something of a modern parent, who doesn't believe in sugar for her kids or criticizing them; while Crystal and Midler are, shock of shocks, old fashioned. Tomei delays leaving on the trip a couple of times because she's petrified to leave her kids with these ancient maniacs.
What follows are antics, plain and simple and dull. Grandpa Artie hates that his grandson's little league team doesn't believe in outs or keeping score properly, and he storms the umpire to make his protests known. He secretly sets up a job interview with ESPN while he's visiting, but it conflicts with a playdate he's supposed to go to with his grandkid, so he drags the kid along with him. What could go wrong? Meanwhile, Grandma Diane is teaching her granddaughter how to wear makeup because she's going to a party at the home of a boy she likes. Buried in the schmaltz are messages about family, and learning to live in the new information age while maintaining a love for old-school things that made us more human and caring.
PARENTAL GUIDANCE is the worst kind of pandering perfectly blended into the worst kind of filmmaking. After such a great run in films like THE WRESTLER, BEFORE THE DEVEIL KNOWS YOU'RE DEAD, CYRUS, and even CRAZY, STUPID, LOVE, it's especially sad to see Tomei take such a nosedive into this barrel-scraping comedy. I have some vague recollection of a time when Crystal was better than this. I'm not sure he was ever cutting edge, but at least he was good for a bunch of one-liners to keep the mood light. But he looks like an old lesbian here, his face mangled from an untold number of adjustments.
Seriously, if you're even contemplating seeing this movie, slap yourself repeatedly until the thought passes. If you really have the need to see a junky comedy with your grandmother this holiday season, make it THE GUILT TRIP. At least there are a few laughs in that one. Let's face it, if you've made it this far in the review, you're probably a lost cause at this point. Venture into a theater playing this one at your own peril.

It's a mystery how this sort of shit keeps getting made - I guess they must make money. Somewhere.
by cactusjack1972
SHE'S THE MAN=shit RACE TO WITCH MOUNTAIN=shit Yes, I watched those movies. And fairly recently. I had no idea the same twatpot was responsible for those movies. No doubt I'll watch some other shitty movie on TV in the years to come and not notice it's by the exact same twatpot. I should make a note. re: "Tomei is something of a modern parent" Does this include the vital skill of wearing tight or skimpy clothing for most of the movie? Modern parents should definitely do that. What the hell, even the dads. Somebody's got to like that stuff.
and will absolutely love it. Nothing interesting going on, no action, shitty plot. Right up their ally.
On the ass As she is getting out of bed after having sex With me
But am I the only one that thinks someone with talent & half a brain could make a really good movie with the basic premise? My parents, now grandparents, are a treasure trove of frustrating, laughable WTF....
The trailers make it look like oscar bait. Kidding. Capone must get paid by the word to write such an in-depth review of a steaming pile.

Good line. I laughed. I noticed Crystal's disturbing plastic surgery when he hosted the Oscars this past year. Lay off the face-lifts and hair dye Billy. The trailer for this film looked so horrible. Who thought it was a good idea to make it?
saying that...crystal hasnt been funny in years i watched the trailer, and was cringing but come on...its got tomei in it rent it and just fast forward to her scenes and fap
Dec. 28, 2012, 10:49 a.m. CST
Is every line that Crystal delivers followed by a rim shot? Speaking of rim shots, what about that Marisa Tomei...huuuh..huuuh?
by openthepodbaydoorshal
At least there was no Robin Williams cameo.
doing the same schtick that needed to be put to rest when he did Father's Day fifteen years ago.
In fact, it was quite distracting in 'The Wrestler' when those guys were complaining about her being old when she was a freakin super hottie in that movie. Calling her a milf? Of course, if a bit objectifying...but not dismissing and refusing her outright (i recall her being better looking than most of the other dancers in that movie too - less bleached blond and plastic). tho i kinda hated the character she was given in that goofy love, sex, marriage thing whatever (the movie with steve carell that makes the classic and predictable rom-com bullshit ending 'character has a huge mea culpa revelation in public - usually involving a PA of some type' - seriously, this happens so often in these movies that its practically formula for these writers and directors).
That inspires me.
Oh gawd what i wouldnt give to nut in her ass with no condom, she's still hot to this day. I mean she was hot in a different world when she was young but i saw her in crazy,stupid, love DAMMMNNNNNN. but it's funny. I mean cal's wife basically cheated on him and he gets revenge by sleeping with marisa tomei. I mean julianne moore was hot but Damn he definitely upgraded!
Has never been funny Ever His snl characters weren't funny I blame him for basically killing deniros career with those awful analyze movies Fuck harry met sally. He was ok on running scared

Motion Control and Vibration: Integrating System Design
by David Carlson
A nontraditional approach to a common design problem may open doors to further opportunities.
Increasingly, as motion control systems become more refined, vibration becomes more important to a system's overall design and functionality. Traditionally, however, engineers have looked at motion control and vibration as separate issues. Motion control, it might be said, presents familiar design engineering problems, while vibration suggests more subtle problems. Few design engineers possess the experience or training to address both sets of problems in a single design solution.
Many engineers faced with this challenge arrive at solutions that offer, at best, a compromise in terms of optimum vibration control, overall system performance, energy efficiency, and cost. Consequently, many system designers have come to accept such compromises as givens. To arrive at meaningful design improvements, however, engineers might begin by first questioning some "givens" of design.
An area presenting challenges to many design givens is in the field of semiactive control using magneto-rheological (MR) fluids. A variety of robust, high-strength MR fluids and devices that enable the benefits of controllable fluid technology are now commercially available. Commercialized, mass-produced devices currently include rotary brakes for use in pneumatic systems, complete semiactive damper systems for heavy-duty truck seat suspensions, and adjustable linear shock absorbers for racing cars. MR fluid dampers that enable semiactive primary suspension in passenger cars have recently been announced. In addition, very large MR fluid dampers appropriate for seismic or wind damage mitigation in civil engineering structures, such as buildings and bridges, are under commercial development. The key to success in all of these implementations is MR fluid's ability to rapidly change its rheological properties upon exposure to an applied magnetic field.
A new way of using MR fluids has been developed in which the fluid is contained in an absorbent matrix. Such MR fluid sponge devices (Figure 1) enable the benefits of semiactive control to be realized in cost-sensitive applications (e.g., domestic washing machines). Moreover, it's in these simple applications that one might examine the issues of vibration and motion control in one design solution.
What Comes Out in the Wash
The common household washing machine represents the traditional compromise between controlling vibration associated with the spin cycle and optimum system performance and efficiency. The tub in a conventional machine is suspended by a number of coil springs, which provide both mechanical support and vibration isolation at high frequency. To prevent potentially damaging vibratory excursions when the drum speed approaches resonance during spin cycles, static vibration dampers are added to the suspension.
This system represents a compromise because while conventional dampers easily control the tub's motion at resonance, the system significantly degrades high-speed vibration isolation. This compromise in system design limits not only the tub's size but also the dimensions of the housing that accommodates the tub's overall motion.
In terms of the machine's overall performance, static damping draws energy from the motor that might otherwise go toward maximizing spin speeds for optimum water removal from clothes (thus shortening drying time). So how does one improve vibration control, performance, and energy efficiency without pricing the appliance beyond the reach of consumers?
What's Coming 'Over There'
European manufacturers of horizontal axis, front-loading washing machines are pushing for such increased performance and efficiency. Smaller in load capacity and typically installed in apartment household kitchens, these machines are designed for maximum energy efficiency and quiet operation (in small spaces and high-occupancy buildings, neighbors are never far away).
Often, households will have only a washing machine, not a dryer. For that reason, tub speeds are reaching 2,000 revolutions per minute, effectively becoming centrifuges in which almost all of the water is removed. In fact, manufacturers have had to reduce the size of the drain holes in tubs to prevent extrusion of clothes during the spin cycle.
To achieve this level of performance, however, manufacturers have incorporated a controllable damping system designed around MR fluid (Figure 2). Controllable dampers provide a simple, cost-effective solution to the dilemma of providing high-level damping at resonance because they can simply be turned off at high spin speeds for a high degree of vibration isolation.
The MR fluid sponge damper requires no seals or bearings and uses the same inexpensive components found in existing passive dampers, but with a few important modifications. The damper consists of a layer of open-celled polyurethane foam, or other suitable absorbent matrix materials, saturated with about 3 milliliters of MR fluid surrounding a steel bobbin and coil. Together, these elements form a piston on the end of a shaft. The piston is free to move axially inside a steel housing that provides the magnetic flux return path. Damping force is proportional to the sponge's active area.
The application of a magnetic field causes the MR fluid in the matrix to develop a yield strength and resist shear motion. The amount of force produced is proportional to the area of active MR sponge that's exposed to the magnetic field. This arrangement can be applied in both linear and rotary configurations that call for a direct shear mode of operation.
While passing through resonance, these controllable dampers may be energized to provide a high level of damping that totally controls the tub's excursions. At high speed, the MR sponge dampers are turned off, enabling a high level of vibration isolation, as shown in Figure 3.
With this enhanced vibration control, the drum may be made larger (or the housing made smaller) because less overall tub motion must be accommodated. Ideally, a pair of controllable dampers provides 50150 N of damping force when energized and a low residual force of <5 N when turned off.
Controllable MR fluid dampers have low power requirementsso low, in fact, that a net energy savings can be realized. Effective resonance control typically requires about 10 watts of input power to the MR dampers for about 5 to 10 seconds, as the drum speed ramps through criticality. This power is readily available from existing onboard electronics in a standard machine. Only a low-cost relay, associated with the wash cycle timer, is required. Removing damping during the machine's high-speed spin phase decreases the motor's power consumption. This is a significant improvement over conventional passive dampers, which require the motor to work against their force to achieve the same spin speeds.
- Enables enhanced energy efficiency because clothes come out drier
- With heightened vibration control, allows tubs to be larger, housings smaller
- Achieves greater performance in terms of higher spin speeds without increased power consumption of more powerful motors
- Enables machines to accurately weigh loads, control water/detergent usage
- Uses onboard electronics
- Requires no additional operator control
- MR provides real-time controllability
Equipment Life
- Dampers designed using existing materials, life of the machine
- When using existing materials, slightly increases materials cost but improves energy efficiency. Result: greater functionality and improved energy efficiency at roughly the same cost.
Systems Integration
- Easily adapts additional electronic controls to extant machine electronics footprint.
The elegant simplicity of this nontraditional approach to a common design problem opens the doors to additional, and perhaps unanticipated, opportunities. For example, in the quest for maximized energy efficiency, washing machines are being designedand rated by their abilityto use only the amount of water and detergent necessary to clean a load of clothes and no more (Figure 4). The goal is to weigh and wash a single silk shirt efficiently.
Conventional, passive dampers create barriers that prevent a machine from accurately weighing loads before washing; however, controllable dampers remove that barrier with no added costs. MC

The hook in Walter Hill's mythic retelling of the James-Younger outlaw legend is in the casting; the James, Younger, Miller, and Ford Brothers are played by a string of acting brothers, the Keachs, the Carradines, the Quaids and the Guests. The film begins as outlaws are robbing a bank. After the robbery, Ed Miller (Dennis Quaid) finds himself kicked out of the gang for needlessly killing a man during the robbery. Jesse James (James Keach) hands over Ed's share of the money and tells him to leave, a...more

Linde-Price Funeral Home was in charge of arrangements.
Frances "Grace" Ervin
Grace was born in Port Townsend, May 3, 1932 to Herbert and Emma (Goodrich) Brown. After an almost ten-year courageous battle with breast cancer, she succumbed on February 1, 2013.
She and her late husband Lawrence (Sonny) James Ervin, were very well known and respected restaurant owners in Port Angeles and Sequim. Grace often said she loved those years working side by side with 'Sonny' and all their employees and customers.
In later years she enjoyed gardening and walks in the yard with 'the girls' - daughter, Kathey (Ervin) and BooBear and Buttons the cats. She also spent many hours crocheting doilies and attending local farmers markets where she sold hundreds of her crocheted creations to locals and visitors from out of state and country.
She was a proud member of the Wyandotte Tribe of Oklahoma.
Her husband, parents, stepfather and two sisters preceded her in death.
She is survived by daughter Kathey Ervin of Sequim, Kelley Barnes (Rex) of Port Angeles and son Herbert of Kennewick. Also surviving are six grandchildren and great-grandchildren.
At her request no services are planned. Memorial contributions may be made to an animal welfare group such as Peninsula Friends of Animals.

Monday Morning Chrysler New Yorker
And thanks to MNF, this is a special Tuesday edition of Monday Morning Chrysler New Yorker. If you call it Tuesday Morning Chrysler New Yorker, you'll get me heated.
By no means did this team play its best game of the season. Heck, this probably wasn't in the top 3 or 4. But the end result was another win, pushing the current streak to 5 while beating a formerly 6-1 team in Denver. Pretty respectable if you ask me.
There was way too much defense dictating the game early...on both sides. With no offense, we were happy to take a 7-3 lead into halftime. Then Ben and Co. opened up the playbook, and decided they wanted no part of a close, defensive struggle. During that, there were a few people that stood out above the others:
Sasso. Big Ben had a somewhat off night. But I can forgive it when an "off" night means 21-29 for 233 yards 3 TDs and 1 INTs. He only threw the ball like 2 times in the first half, but showed off his stuff in the second. We've grown accustomed to at least one massive Ben misstep, and the throw behind Hines in the endzone for an INT was just that play. We can almost forgive the strip-sack-for-6, as Kemoeatu was primarily to blame. Since Ben's night was the tale of 2 halves, I'll give him just 3.5 of 5 stars. Gotta take off for the errors.
Beetlejuice. Like Ben, he started off underwhelming. He had some nice 4-5 yard runs, but there was nothing spectacular. Then the second half came along, and Rashard exploded for a total of 155 yards on the ground and a 7 yard per carry average. Remember that this was against one of the best defenses on their home turf. 4.5 of 5 motorcycle helmets.
Hines. The vet just keeps going. Onl 44 yards receiving, but 2 of his 7 catches were for TDs. And if Arians didn't call a boneheaded play with 2 receivers in the same area, or if Ben didn't throw way behind Hines, Ward would've had another TD to his name. It's impossible to hate. 4 of 5 helmets.
Defense. There were only 2 sacks, both by Brett Keisel. Yet 2 Carter picks and a Troy INT will always please me. The D pressured Orton into throwing 300% more INTs than he had all season, which is just the right kind of recipe for success. Get the stabilizing offensive force off his game, and take advantage of the miscues as they happen. The D was a microcosm of the entire team...not the best game I've seen them play this season, but good enough that I can't walk away overly-critical. I mean, they did let Brandon Marshall get over 100 yards receiving, but they were still the primary reason we hung in the game early. Like Hines, they get 4 of 5 motorcycle helmets.
Cincinnati comes to town next week. Time to pay them back for beating us last time.

Chinese proverb : man doesn't look under the bed unless he hid there himself.
Yes my ws did. In fact I couldn't sleep one night and was sitting outside on SI. He woke up and asked who I was texting?? Then he slammed the door. He had the balls to question me later . He said I wake up at 3am and my wife's on the phone, makes me wonder who she's talking to. Grrr I was pretty secretive and sneaky while was gathering my info on him and he acted like I was hiding something. I was but it was about him.


text: The next time you wake up with a hangover of historic proportions, consider this: Between 1790 and 1830, Americans drank more alcoholic beverages per capita than ever before or since, according to The Alcoholic Republic by W.J. Rorabaugh (Oxford University Press, 1979). Rorabaugh's heady volume outlines just how hard-drinking a society America was: Most social and political life revolved around the tavern, working men starting their day with a dram and finishing it off with another (or several). Thomas Jefferson invented the presidential cocktail party, while attorneys and juries alike took a nip at trials. But why did our founding fathers and their brethren hit the sauce so hard? They believed that alcohol was healthful, and it helped them cope with the vicissitudes of daily life in an unstable young nation. If you're planning a Presidents' Day celebration, how 'bout a patriotic "lost weekend"? To you, America!

Mike started as a city police officer in his native St. Albans. He worked at the city for four years before moving to the sheriff's department. John began working at the sheriff's department about one year later.
Carper said the two have always worked well together.
"They kind of come as a team," he said.
Carper said at least two members of the committee that considered the appointment are Republicans (Jones and Plants) while the Rutherfords are Democrats. Therefore, the appointment is not political, he said.
"Mike has 40 years of law enforcement experience, so no one can say he's not qualified," he said.
Carper said he would support the appointment in today's meeting.
"I would be extremely disappointed if this isn't approved by the other commissioners," he said. "This is clearly in the best interests of the Kanawha County Sheriff's Department."
County residents apparently appreciate John's service because he ran for sheriff unopposed even after serving as chief deputy under his brother, Carper said.
"I can't think of any elected official who has run unopposed for a vacant office," he added.
John, who officially retired from the sheriff's department on Aug. 1 to pursue the elected office, has begun drawing a deputy's pension of about $60,000 a year.
He will continue to collect that pension on top of his $44,880 annual salary as sheriff. The sheriff also receives up to $15,000 in commission if the tax office collects more than 90 percent of the taxes due to the county. So his total compensation could be about $120,000 a year.
As sheriff, John will contribute to another state pension plan.
Mike currently draws a pension of about $26,000 a year based on his service as a deputy sheriff. He will receive a pension of about 10,000 a year from another state plan based on his service as sheriff, he said.
However, Mike will stop drawing the deputy's pension if he serves as chief deputy. He will resume making contributions to the plan and draw a higher benefit when he leaves the position. That would result from the additional service credits and the higher pay upon which the benefit would be based.
"A chief deputy is considered a deputy," he said.
Mike's salary as chief deputy will be set by the commission. John made about $77,000 a year in that position, County Manager Jennifer Sayre said.

Happy Birthday, Steven Heller
In the early 1990s, fresh out of grad school, I was working as the Design Director at the (now-defunct)
Philadelphia Inquirer Sunday Magazine
where, surrounded by writers and editors, I became interested myself in writing. At that time, the only writing credit I had to my name was my thesis, and the only person besides me who'd read it was Paul Rand, who
wasn't terribly impressed
. Undaunted, I mentioned all this to Steven Guarnaccia, who kindly mentioned it to Steve Heller, and a few days later this letter arrived.
Sight unseen, I was being offered a chance to write — to write about design! — for the
AIGA Journal
. I was over the moon, and leapt at the opportunity.
This marked the beginning of a long and rich collaboration and friendship, and I say this knowing that there are others who, like me, have benefited from Steve's pure generosity of spirit. Not only does he seem to write a book every ten minutes (and if you're missing any of them, we've provided links for our readers below), but he is always willing to share — a credit here, a recommendation there — all of them genuine and heartfelt and real. A willing collaborator, a supportive editor and a devoted friend to artists and designers across the globe, Steve Heller is about as close as we come, in America, to a national treasure. And today is his birthday.
Happy Birthday, Steve.

In 1946 there was a little movie that came out titled "It's A Wonderful Life," in which an angel shows a suicidal protagonist, (the character played by James Stewart) what the world would be like if he was never born. Turns out, that world is a dreary and drab place. The angel thus saves his life.
Drab and dreary is what the world would be like without Steve Heller. Aside from his extraordinary output (101 books! Hundreds of forewords, introductions, articles, blog posts, and so on!), Jessica has accurately zeroed in on what makes Steve a true national treasure: his pure generosity of spirit. He has selflessly and quietly helped and influenced so many, many designers, illustrators and writers. In fact, if it weren't for Steve, I would not have the life that I have. But I owe him more than my gratitude; I owe him for so many introductions and opportunities I would never, ever have had without his help.
Thank you, Steve, for all you have done for me, for the design community, for the School of Visual Arts, for the New York Times, for AIGA, for Print Magazine and so on! My life would be drab and dreary without you. A most Happy, Happy Birthday to you. You deserve all the joy in the world.

Several years ago, mutual colleagues at AIGA let me know that I'd be meeting Steven Heller for the first time. While they did a wonderful job of preparing me, then introducing us, nothing could have prepared me for the conversation we had that sunny afternoon, leading to a friendship and mentorship that has truly changed my life, but more importantly, the lives of others in turn, as that conversation spawned unseen and un-numbered projects, ideas, collections, introductions, internships, more mentorships, and now a masters program — the likes of which I couldn't have considered early that Monday afternoon.
Steve, for the generosity you offer with every conversation, with every email, with every essay, with every book, with every moment of your time, I thank you. Thank you for seeing connections among people, ideas, objects, eras, antagonists, heros, and underdogs, unlike no one can. Thank you for crafting them into stories so that we can all see them as well. Most of all, the happiest of birthdays to you!

This is lovely.

I love the offered themes in the letter at the top of this piece: The End of the Book, The Preservation of Design, Eccentricity! These remind me that you never know what you're going to run into with Steve; how you will be inspired; what he'll cross your path with. On the days I teach in the Designer As Author Program at SVA, Steve's office is adjacent to my classroom, so one of the treats of the trip is to stop by and see what he's got cooking, some new opportunity, some rich provocation. I treasure the time I get to spend with Steve Heller, and am truly grateful for his friendship. Happy birthday Steve!

I can't even begin to comprehend the amount of books you have written. what a great service to the design community. Happy Birthday.

My name also goes on the long list of those whose early design writing careers were boosted by Steve Heller. I'm looking forward to the book (or PhD thesis) someone does, reviewing his body of work and his influence. Steve is the hardest working man in design business.

It all began with my writing a very cranky letter of complaint about the blatant sexism at the AIGA National Conference in Miami in the early 90s. Steve Heller encourage me to write another small piece for the AIGA Journal. His expert editing helped me learn to write better.
Thank you Steve, and a belated Happy Birthday!

And happy birthday, Steve, from Australia too.
Perhaps you are not aware of the impact of your books around the world.
Certainly, they were among the first graphic design titles to hit Australian bookstores - and soon encouraged a new category - 'Design' - instead of being mixed up with Michelangelo, Rubens and Indigenous art.
So I'd like to thank you for your seemingly inexhaustible range of interests - and the quality of your collaborations and publications. My bookshelves contain many of these books and they are treasured.
Incidentally, 'Trylon and Perisphere' was one of my favorites but was lost in a flood, so I'm delighted to find that it's still available!
(And thanks, too, to Jessica for giving people an opportunity to acknowledge Steven like this!)
All best wishes (again, belatedly) and thank you.

Mobile Traffic Exploding on Exploreminnesota.com
Release Date: Oct 02, 2012
Mobile traffic on exploreminnesota.com, that is, use of the site with mobile phones or tablets, has exploded over the past couple of years. In August 2010, we recorded around 10,000 visits. Two years later, in August 2012, mobile visits had risen to over 90,000, almost a third of overall traffic. September, usually a much quieter month than August, was expected to top that number, and the trend continues.
In response to this trend, Explore Minnesota Tourism is working hard to improve and increase use of our mobile travel planning tools. Changes to the mobile site in the coming year will include:
- Improving the "map it" function to make it easier to get directions from a mobile device;
- Adding a "what's nearby" feature for finding lodging, attractions, or events near another listing;
- Making changes that would allow for advertising on the mobile site; and
- Providing better statistics on mobile site use.

Officials in Catoosa County, Ga., moved closer Friday to putting together a list of public projects to be funded by a 1 cent sales tax — should voters approve the tax on March 19.
"They've done some revisions. I think they've got it down," Fort Oglethorpe City Manager Ron Goulart said following an afternoon meeting in Ringgold, Ga.
The list of special purpose local option sales tax projects has to be ready in time for the city councils of Fort Oglethorpe and Ringgold to vote on it at their Jan. 14 meetings. The Catoosa County Commission also must approve.
Goulart's main concern was getting funding to help pay down the debt on $11 million the city borrowed for sewer projects.
"I've got to make sure I can pay the debt service off," he said.
Recreation projects and purchase of police and fire vehicles are also on the list, which should be completed soon.
Officials in Chattooga County also are working up a list of projects to present to voters -- probably in March, but maybe in November, county Sole Commissioner Jason Winters said.
"The cities are preparing their project list now," he said, referring to Trion, Summerville, Lyerly and Menlo.
Winters said the 1 cent sales tax generates about $2.4 million annually. He called the revenue "crucial."
"If we lose these funds, we have no choice but to raise property taxes," he said.
"Most residents view it as a very fair tax," Winters said. "This is just continuing a sales tax that's been in place."
Chattooga County is unique in that it's among a handful of Georgia counties in which most of the sales tax revenue goes to the schools, Winters said.
"In Chattooga, the board of education gets 2 cents," he said, of every dollar in sales.
While the county and city governments get special purpose sales tax, schools in Chattooga County get both local option sales tax revenue and education special purpose sales tax revenue, Winters said.
In Walker County, the SPLOST doesn't expire until 2014. So it won't go on the ballot until then, county Sole Commissioner Bebe Heiskell said.
"I get a committee of citizens to put the SPLOST together," she said.
Water, sewer, recreation and equipment for sheriff's deputies and firefighters likely will be on the wish list, she said.
"Walker County has always passed SPLOST," Heiskell said. "I think we'll do it again."
An attempt to pass a special purpose local option tax failed in November 2011 in Whitfield County when 60 percent of voters rejected it.

For first time in 20 years, NSA participates in Defcon hacker conference
Monday - 7/30/2012, 8:55am EDT
CNET reports, none other than NSA director Gen. Keith Alexander gave the keynote at this year's Defcon. Alexander is also head of the U.S. Cyber Command.
Sporting blue jeans and a black T-shirt, Alexander told the gathered hackers, their talents are needed to help the United State meet the cyber threat. Defcon founder Jeff Moss says he's been trying for 20 years to get NSA to participate.
Defcon 2012 wrapped up Sunday in Las Vegas.

Tableau can help anyone findreal answers in their data.
Answer your questions at the speed of thought.
Tableau helps people see and understand their data.
Talk about big data: every 3 days, eBay collects the equivalent of the Library of Congress. Impressive -- but not if employees can't use it.
As a Senior Manager of the Analytics Platform said, "End users were asking for a lot more than just another report. They wanted a democracy for data. That's where Tableau started kicking in."
"The exciting part was just the uptake. It was easy for someone to get online, and they could start learning right away. Anyone at eBay who wants to get a license can go do that." 26,000 people later, they're doing just that. More about eBay
A traditional business intelligence project to track key performance indicators (KPIs) wasn't close to done after 9 months. What to do? If you're Cornell, you find a faster way.
Today, thousands use Tableau to track KPIs and analyze all kinds of data. From dissecting the student pool to managing contributor relations, Cornell is working faster than they thought possible.
"We produce ten times the analysis in half the time, with half the staff," said Cindy Sedlacek, Director of Data Administration for the College of Arts and Sciences. "Adoption of Tableau for our business needs has gone beyond our expectations." More about Cornell
Irish Life wanted to end what Paul Egan, IT manager at the life assurance company, called "Monday morning madness." The rush to email spreadsheets and reports with little analysis wasn't cutting it.
They had big ambitions to put data in the hands of business. C-level management wanted analytical dashboards that were compelling, easy to build and easy to use. "So, not a lot to ask for," joked Egan.
Enter Tableau against a host of competitors. "Tableau was easiest by a considerable distance." Business users could do a lot themselves, "coming to us with the symphony written." In 2 months, they were live. "It was astonishingly fast," said Egan. More about Irish Life
