"My character was supposed to be this womanizing, Sin City, strip-bar-going guy," Martin said. "This is a fake character -- 12 years ago.
"My character died 10 years ago. Chris Sterling broke his neck. I got carried out on a gurney."
The Gazette showed Martin copies of the messages Wednesday. He said he didn't write the sexually explicit comments about teen girls, but he couldn't recall which of the other messages he wrote, and which were authored by XMCW writers.
"I can't tell you who did it, but I didn't do it," Martin said of the most sexually explicit posts. "Fifty percent of the people will believe me, and 50 percent won't believe me."
Martin said he recently asked the crowza.com website administrator to remove all postings under the name of "Chris Sterling." The posts were still online Wednesday.
In addition to the sexually explicit comments, a "Chris Sterling" post lists favorite female and male pornographic film stars. Another lists favorite porn websites. One of those websites lists "Chris Sterling" as a registered user under the username "XMCWSterling." Martin used the same username on other websites, including a fly-fishing and poker site.
Six weeks ago, Martin said, he received an anonymous call from a man who wouldn't identify himself. The caller notified him that a packet with the sexually explicit messages would be sent to the media unless he dropped out of the race, Martin recalled.
"I told him he could kiss my ass," Martin said Wednesday. "I'm not dropping out of anything.
"He said, 'So, you're not dropping out?' I said, 'No, I'm not dropping out.'"
A short time later, Martin said, someone sent a packet of message posts to his law firm. "They're dropping packets off at my law firm, trying to get me fired," he said.
Martin said he also received a phone call from state Democratic Party executive director Derek Scarbro that someone had contacted state Democratic chairman Larry Puccio about the offensive comments posted on the wrestling production's message board.
Scarbro referred questions to Puccio Wednesday. Puccio said someone -- "who I don't want to name" -- called him and told him to call Delegate Ron Walters, R-Kanawha, who's Chris Walters' father.
"He said they've got some important information, and they don't want to embarrass you, and it would be wise for me to call Ron," Puccio recalled.
"I never made the call," Puccio said. "I'm not getting into that kind of stuff. They wanted me to call the candidate's father to hear what they had, that they had the goods on Josh Martin."
Ron Walters could not be reached for comment late Wednesday.
Martin's wrestling past and comments posted under his former wrestling name did not become an issue in last May's Democratic primary, when he beat challenger Jennifer Scragg Karr.
Martin and Walters are running for the open 8th District seat held by Dr. Dan Foster, who's not running for re-election. The district was formerly made up entirely of Kanawha County, but now includes parts of Kanawha and Putnam County.
Martin said he's tired of being threatened. He refuses to drop out of the race.
"This kid [Chris Walters] has tried to ruin my life in six weeks over a [expletive] Senate seat, excuse my language. They're trying to get me fired from my job, trying to get me discredited in the legal community, trying to ruin my family.
"Chris Sterling is dead. He's been dead 10 years," Martin said. "I'm a father. I'm a husband. That's who I am. They're trying to blackmail me because they can't win any other way."

CastaDiva Resort: Paradise on Lake Como
Filed under: Luxury Travel & Hotels
CastaDiva Resort, the motto is simple: "the answer is never no, and yes can always be had ... for a price." But priceless beauty and impeccable service is what you'll get at this 75-room ulra-luxe resort, the first of its kind to open on the lake in nearly 100 years.
It's not everyday one gets the chance to travel to Lake Como, and it's a once-in-a-lifetime chance to stay at the former villa of famed opera singer Guiditta Pasta, now a luxury resort. Needless to say, we jumped at the opportunity. An eight-hour overnight from New York to Milan landed us at Malpensa International Airport, just 45 minutes from the hotel proper. A uniformed driver and the resort's private Mercedes shuttle were waiting to take us to our destination, procuring coffee and water along the way. Luca, the driver, energetically pointed out the sights and sounds along the way, waxing poetic about the beauty we were soon to see at CastaDiva.

Wonder what region you live in? See our map here or visit the "Site Specific" column in each issue of Gardening How-To.
Pacific Northwest • Repot houseplants in new soil. • Keep harvesting cool-season crops like asparagus, peas, and spring lettuce. • Divide crowded perennials and share.
Southwest • Lantana, red bird of paradise, Oleander, and other winter damaged plants may be emerging at this time. Do not remove them prematurely. These plants will emerge if watered occasionally during winter. • Deadhead spring-blooming bulbs, but let the foliage grow until it yellows. • Plant heat-loving vegetables such as tomatoes, hot peppers, okra, and sweet potatoes.
Midwest/Mountain• Finish up any pruning this month with the exception of spring-blooming trees and shrubs. You can prune them immediately after they're done flowering. • Start warm-season melons and squash indoors, to transplant after Memorial Day, when the squash borer has moved on. • Plant or transplant trees and shrubs before the heat of summer.
Northeast • Deadhead and begin replacing pansies and primroses as the blossoms fade. • Divide most perennials as long as they're not spring bloomers and as long as the foliage isn't more than 5 or 6 inches high. • Rip out invasive plants while the soil is damp, before they spread even further.
Southeast • Keep a sharp eye out for fungal problems during the rainy season. • Finish planting new citrus trees and berry bushes for a late harvest. • Watch for asparagus beetles, aphids, cabbage worms, cutworms, scale, slugs and snails, and any signs of fungal diseases (leaf spot, mildew, rust, etc.).

The Covington-Newton County Chamber of Commerce is giving a trial run to a trolley that would be used by businesses and during special events to promote tourism.
The Covington City Council took some steps Monday to tackle some major water projects around town, including replacing 100-year-old water pipes and fixing some flooding issues in city neighborhoods.
Main Street Covington's transition to the Covington-Newton County Chamber of Commerce is complete, but some downtown business owners still have questions about how the program will work moving forward.
Covington took another step toward adding a gazebo to the square Tuesday, but the city also unveiled a full landscaping plan that reinvents areas of the square.
Covington has made history, becoming the first city in Georgia to open a publicly-available compressed natural gas (CNG) fueling facility.
The Twelve Oaks Bed and Breakfast has been hosting weddings for more than a year, but events aren't actually allowed under its current zoning permit and its fate as a wedding destination rests in the hands of the Covington City Council.
A chimney fire destroyed the home at 7122 Durden Circle in Covington Tuesday night.
The city of Covington developed a list of problem roads during snow and ice; many of these roads receive a lot of shade and don't get enough sun to melt snow and ice.
The city of Covington is looking for a new municipal court judge following last week's resignation of former judge Steven Hathorn.
(Note: Attached to this article is the audio recording of the speech Covington Municipal Court Judge Steven Hathorn gave to the city council, explaining and defending comments a court employee said were prejudiced against black defendants. Also, attached to the article is a PDF copy of a transcript (transcribed by The News) from part of the Jan. 22 municipal court session, which caused a court employee to accuse Judge Steven Hathorn of racial prejudice.)
Below is the agenda for the Covington City Council's Monday meeting, while the attached PDF contains information for some of the agenda items - the information is the same as that given to city council members.

It's good to get a little dirt under you fingernails.
Carl Smith Jr. was generous. He was generous with his time, his money and his kindness. Smith died on Monday, but throughout his 96 years in Covington, he touched many lives; whether he was secretly donating money to a family in need, donating his time to make repairs at a friend's home or his church or sharing his wealth of knowledge and love with his family.
A call for assistance ended in two arrests. A young man was arrested for outstanding warrants but not before a fight with his mother.
Air Methods, the world's largest air medical provider, moved its Covington helicopter base to Conyers Sunday to save money and increase efficiency.
This week, The News begins a weekly series looking at what has become of those convicted of murder in Newton County and touching base with the victims' loved ones. The cases span nearly four decades. Information was gathered from the archives of The News and records from the Newton County Clerk of Courts office as well as through interviews and written correspondence with involved parties.
Riding for a good cause: Many members of the Juvenile Court of Newton County participated in the for Ride for Reading on Saturday, July 11, to benefit The Learning Center in Oxford. The ride began at 10 a.m. at the Martin's Crossing Shopping Center and ended at 11:30 a.m. at Jimbo's Grill at the Mill in Porterdale. All proceeds from rider registration went to The Learning Center. The ride was escorted by the Newton County Sheriff's Office.
The Georgia Department of Transportation will be milling down and resurfacing the part of Highway 36 that runs through Covington, including the section around the square. In preparation for that milling, the city must lower its manholes and water and gas valves.
Newton County's western residents will finally have their own park and should be able to set foot in Denny Dobbs Park in early spring 2010. The Board of Commissioners approved plans for the first phase of the District 2 park on Tuesday night.
Covington Police Officers arrested a 17-year-old man for one burglary and ended up tying him to at least three other in the Mill Village area of the city.
Rodney Pierce of Covington received several citations on Tuesday, June 30, after an officer responded to an accident at the intersection of Ga. Highway 212 and Ga. Highway 36. The officer arrived on the scene shortly before 5:30 p.m. to find Pierce's car in the ditch. After approaching Pierce the officer reportedly noticed that he was allegedly unsteady on his feet, verbally combative and that there was a strong odor of alcohol coming from Pierce's person.
On the morning on July 3 officers from the Covington Police Department responded to Westview Cemetery to meet with family members of Lanny Perry Barnes. The family members had called because someone had placed two signs of a protest nature on Barnes' grave. No damage was done to the grave or the grave marker. Officers removed the signs and reassured the Barnes family that the family of Barnes' victims would be contacted and advised not to return. Officers determined that no criminal offenses had occurred.
A new teen television series on The CW network, The Vampire Diaries based on author L.J. Smith's 1991 trilogy of books, will be filmed in downtown Covington beginning July 21.
Two people lost their life in Newton County over the holiday weekend, according to Newton County Sheriff's Office 1st Lt. Mark Mitchell.
Both accidents occurred early July 5. The first accident happened just before 3 a.m. Deputies from the NCSO responded to a call of a vehicle accident with a possible fatality on Access Road at Old Oxford. When they arrived they found that a car and a motorcycle had collided. The driver of the motorcycle, a man in his mid-forties whose name is currently being withheld by the NCSO, was pronounced dead on the scene.
Eugene Presley Jr., 21, was arrested on multiple charges after officers responded to a call at 165 Lakeside Trail on June 21. According to the victim Presley assaulted her multiple times inside and outside of the home. Allegedly the victim was held inside the home by Presley and while attempting the dial 911 Presley grabbed the telephone from her.
Five teens were shot at a party in the early morning hours of June 28.

Confused about Renewable Energy and Heating Systems? – Attend Ashgroves Free Open Day. Limerick
Posted in News by ashgroveAshgrove Renewables will host an open house event in Limerick on the 15th of Dec 2012
There is so much conflicting information within the industry today, often it is hard to distinguish good advice from bad advice.
Ashgrove has over a decade of providing successful solutions for customers all over Ireland. The Heat Pump association of Ireland confirmed that we installed 10% of all Heat Pumps installed in Ireland in 2011, making us the countries' largest supplier of such systems.
Aim of Open Day – To explain how various technologies work. Pros and Cons of each. How to ensure success of a system from the planning stage.
Critical Design Considerations – Each project has a number of critical areas, which will result in either success or failure in the eventual system. We will explain some of these and show how seemingly small issues can have an enormous knock-on effect.
For many people, much confusion exists surrounding the field of renewable technology. This event aims to educate and inform participants about what might be the most suitable technology for them and their project.
When? – Saturday 15th December 9.00am
Where? – Meeting at Kilmurry Lodge Hotel, Dublin Road, Castletroy, Limerick
To View a Map- or Get Directions- Click Here
Ashgrove has recently singed a contact with Swedish Heat Pump manufacturer Thermia to represent them in Ireland and Northern Ireland. These heat Pumps have been awarded "Best in Test" (highest efficiency of all heat pumps tested) in Scandinavia for the last 3 years.
Ashgrove has also been chosen by Kingspan to develop its Wind turbine market in Ireland. They quoted our strong technical ability and after-sales service as being the reasons for choosing us.
What do you do next?
For obvious reasons interest levels in this open day has been high so attendance needs to be confirmed with our office.

Part 5 On Common Core – The Common Core and the Public Librarian

Nesi, a regional coordinator with the New York City Department of Education, Division of Library Services, and Nina Lindsay, Children's Services Coordinator at the Oakland Public Library, Oakland, CA as they explore the ways in which today's professionals in public libraries are being called on to serve students in their libraries in light of the Common Core.
Perspectives on Academic Patrons: A Closer Look at Takeaways from Library Journal's Academic Patron Profiles

Changing the DNA of Scholarly Publishing: The Impact of Born Digital Content on the Scholarly Community Today
After 500 years of print publishing, the advent of digitization has caused a huge evolutionary leap in scholarly publishing. Content once logically packaged in a book or print journal issue has now quickly evolved not just to an online version of print but into an entirely new digitally-born method of scholarly communication. In this webcast, publishers and librarians will discuss current emerging models for scholarly communication and discuss its future. Damon Zucca from Oxford University Press talks about the transformation of the long-standing print Oxford Handbooks series into a dynamic article delivery service, providing scholarly research reviews in advance of their print publication and offering born-digital content—blurring ebooks and serials into a new format. Vicki Parsons, Head of Collections at Georgia Gwinnett College Library, talks about her experiences developing a library collection for a born-digital institution in a twenty-first century world encompassing both print and online. Rolf Janke, from Sage Publications shares his experiences of transitioning print content into the digital space focusing on how the value of content must not get lost in translation moving into the various digital forms.

Nima Samkhaniani is student of mechanical engineering in IUT (Isfahan University of Technology). He and his friends practice ways of energy reduction.
We were a group in mechanical department that worked in energy issues. Our first work was solar cooking capability in isfahan. We tried to use simple ways and materials to build a solar cooker to find out how much easy to build and use of solar cooker. However, it was a pleasure practice then we decided to publish paper. Perhaps our work will attract other people to use solar cooker.

There are two main ULTS related telephone discount programs in California. They are the California LifeLine Program (California LifeLine) and the federal Lifeline program (federal Lifeline). All qualified California households may take advantage of these telephone discount programs to help lower the cost of their phone bills. The California LifeLine Administrator administers both the California LifeLine Program and the federal Lifeline program.
Only one discount per household for each residential address is allowed. Each household must choose to get the discount either on a home phone or on a cell phone, but not on both. Households cannot get the discount from multiple phone companies. Households that do not follow the one discount per household rule will lose their discounts.
This comparison chart describes how the California Lifeline program and the federal Lifeline program work similarly and differently in California.

Sportables challenged participants to design a highly demountable, portable sports product library, product development studio, and futsal (soccer) play area for the community of Capao Redondo, a dense, colorful, and energetic settlement near Sao Paolo, Brazil. The "pop-up" facility deploys to provide jerseys, shoes, and balls, using sports inspire change for youth of both genders, and provide income generation opportunities for others. All designs had to grapple with issues of space, accessibility, security, resource scarcity and community.
The winning design by Toby R. Keeton is a brilliant and carefully thought-out compact module that is easy to transport and deploy, but also provides incentives for the participants to take ownership in the community resource.

Software development poses unfamiliar challenges to automotive value chain
Over the past decade, software complexity in cars has increased in a breathtaking manner. In automotive projects, developers today have to deal with 15.000 to 60.000 requirements (Doors items). The volume of a typical project is 500.000 to 3 million lines of code, and the work has to be coordinated among 100 to 250 developers, explained Karl Fuchs who oversees quality management for Infotainment and Connectivity for automotive supplier Continental AG, in his keynote speech. To make things even more complicated, the time to market does not grow in lockstep with the requirements - quite in the contrary, it is declining.
One possible way out of the dilemma is the reuse of software. However, in some cases, the use of cost-optimized hardware poses limits to software reuse. In order to maintain control of design complexity, Continental suggests making as much use of modeling as possible. "Software developers should transform requirements in use cases - and users should extensively use modeling techniques", Fuchs said. This helps designers go get a top-down vision of the problem to be solved instead of digging into details and lose track of the big picture. Fuchs compared the situation of an automotive software developer to VLSI chip design. "No chip designer needs to exactly understand the way millions of transistors interact in such a chip. Instead, chip designers rely on RTL level abstractions. Similarly, no software developer can keep track of the interaction of thousands of C++ classes. "Examples show that modeling techniques make it possible to generate code with significantly less program errors", he said, adding that the code generated by modeling is also much more compact than by conventional methods.

Powerpole connectors provide reliability, flexibility and convenience. Each Powerpole connector is a genderless, single connector half of which can be dovetailed together to create customized connectors. Popular connector used for RC cars and ideal for automotive use. Block your housing together, insert crimped contacts and plug two halves together. Contacts are rated for 30 amps at 600 volts. Each package includes ten black and ten red housings, and 20 contacts, enough for five complete sets.
The Connectors are the Easiest and quickest connectors i have ever made. They Have the simplest crimping tool and even if you don't have the tool the making them is a breeze! We use these for our robotics team (Tigertrons 222) for everthing, the make wires look alot cleaner and more professional. Best connectors i have ever used!
These are great connectors. One part number for all three different parts is great also.
These spring loaded connectors actually have LOWER resistance than the actual wire it is connected to. They snap together solidly. I love em'
