Lawyers say Ochy gave the order to block La Prensa
de prensa.com
13/12/2012 - Lawyers for Corprensa, the parent company of La Prensa, presented a complaint today against David Ochy, president of Transcaribe Trading (TCT), and three others closely linked to the construction company.
The complaint claimed that it was Ochy who directly ordered the blockade of the facilities of Corprensa on Aug. 2 and 3. The move prevented the circulation of newspapers, which is a violation of the free press clause of the criminal code.
The complaint was filed with the Fourth Municipal Court Judge Maribel Concepción.

Curiosity needs OS upgrade before getting down to science
Check the specs..
> A BAE RAD 750 single-board computer with a 750Mhz Power PC CPU
Not to nitpick, but the CPU is called the RAD750 because it's based on the PowerPC 750 processor, not because of its clock speed. It operates at a mere 200MHz per BAE's own component specifications.
Even better, BAE's press reports claim that's a full 10-fold increase over its previous generation CPU, the RAD6000, which powers Spirit and Opportunity, Mars Odyssey, and a whole host of other Mars craft and other spacecraft.
Laptop bags: 15-inchers
Only on one side of the pond
I've been looking for an updated backpack for travel. Rather disappointed to find the Samsonite backpack isn't sold in the States. In fact the whole Wander line isn't sold here, and no, it's not that it's simply under a different name. That design isn't sold here at all.
Digital regional restrictions are pointless enough but, seriously, REGIONAL LAPTOP BAGS!?
Privacy watchdogs challenge laptop seizures at US borders
Current admin's practice?
While I'm sure they're suing the current administration by default, I'm not sure I'd word it as "the Obama administration's practice" of seizing such things. It makes it sound like this is something new that the current admin created and implemented all on their own.
They're not the first, and are just continuing a trend that's been in place for quite some years now. Though I certainly would like to see it shot down regardless as I find it despicable. I just find the current wording of the article's opening statements a bit misleading.
US judge rules quadriplegic can bear arms
What "right"?
I guess I'll just be the only comment not rabidly anti-gun here, but I notice that both articles, and the previous comments, all talk about the man's "right" to bear arms.
Both articles say the man has to get a permit before he can buy a gun. The linked NJ News article itself actually goes so far as to explicitly state that the permit is "a requirement for the purchase of any gun in New Jersey".
If you have to ask permission to do something, it is not a right. If it is standard legal procedure to deny you something by default (until you get a permit to give you permission), it is not a right. I'm surprised this New Jersey statute hasn't been taken to court on Second Amendment grounds.
It's not just this one man's right to bear arms that's been infringed here, if that article is truly correct in saying a permit is needed for ANY firearm in NJ. I'm actually surprised the NRA isn't all over that law.
Google finds voice to respond to FCC
The calls aren't equal to begin with!
How can Google be expected to treat all destinations equally, when in this case they fundamentally are not equal? The connecting carriers are not treating them equal either: they are charging vastly more for connecting to these numbers than to others. Your phone company, likewise, isn't treating them equally either, even if they are obliged to connect to them: you pay more on your phone bill for calling these numbers in the first place.
Personally I see that as the solution here. It costs more for Google to connect those calls, and they should simply pass that cost on to customers who actually, knowingly, want to call those numbers. That would put their behavior right in line with the rest of the telecom companies.
I also agree with Google's statement. The FCC should repair the broken compensation system, because as it stands right now, it's not even possible to treat all calls equal. Not with connection costs being so vastly different.
Google sued for 'stealing' Android name
"Android Data" and not a single Star Trek quip in the whole article? For shame!
MacBook buyers bite Apple over copy protection cock-up
Clarification Needed
This article is a bit poorly worded. It seems to suggest that using DVI at all entirely prevents you from playing protected content, which simply isn't true. All Macs sporting DVI ports in the past have supported HDCP over DVI for several generations now (though this is the first time the HDCP requirement has been enforced, of course). This still holds true for the DisplayPort Macs too. If you have an HDCP-compliant DVI monitor, it WILL work with HDCP via the DP-to-DVI adapter.
Your monitor has to be pretty damn old indeed if it does DVI but doesn't support HDCP. VGA people are of course still entirely out of luck though.

Tonight at sundown marks the start of Yom Kippur, the holiest day of the Jewish calendar.

Nick Cave's Birthday Party may have earned international recognition in the '80s, but for most of the '90s and '00s, middling Australian acts like Powderfinger and You Am I were justifiably ignored by almost everyone outside their home country. Cut Copy aren't exactly international chart-toppers, but they're arguably the most important group to emerge from Australia in recent memory. Their kaleidoscopically ambitious 2008 album, In Ghost Colours, has brought much-deserved attention to the vibrant and varied indie scene Down Under—from the hard-charging post-punk of Eddy Current Suppression Ring to the hedonistic acid-house of Canyons. Zonoscope, as a whole, may not qualify as an improvement on Colours, but from the sound of singles like "Take Me Over" and "Need You Now," Australia won't be ceding the spotlight anytime soon.

In WebStorm, breakpoints are assigned to the lines of source code and point at particular sections for debugging.
WebStorm uses only JavaScript breakpoints that can be set in JavaScript context inside *.js or *.html files.
Breakpoints are triggered when the program reaches the specified line of source code, before it is executed. The line of code that contains a set breakpoint, is marked with a red stripe; once such line of code is reached, the marking stripe changes to blue.
Once set, a breakpoint remains in project until removed. Breakpoints can only be set on executable lines of code. Comments, declarations of methods, and empty lines are not valid locations for breakpoints.
If a file with breakpoints has been modified externally, for example, updated from a version control repository, or changed in an external editor, so that line numbers are changed, then the breakpoints will be moved accordingly.
It is important to note that WebStorm should be running at the moment of such modification; otherwise, such changes will pass unnoticed.
In this section:
Temporary line breakpoints
These breakpoints are assigned to lines of source code and are used to target a particular section for debugging. When hit, such breakpoints are immediately removed.
JavaScript Breakpoints
JavaScript breakpoints are the line breakpoints assigned to particular lines of JavaScript source code. They can be set in *.html and in *.js files, and are used to target a particular section of code fordebugging.

Syosset residents voted Tuesday and passed both the school and library budgets.

This weekend, Lafayette residents will have the opportunity to clean up their homes and neighborhoods in a community-wide event. The "Community Pride" Neighborhood Clean-Up Day will be held this Saturday.
The Clean-Up Day is scheduled from 7 a.m. to 1 p.m. Residents of the city and unincorporated areas of the parish can drop off trash items at five locations throughout Lafayette. LCG officials encourage residents to bring white goods and other larger items that do not fit inside the Allied Waste bins. Participants need to be a resident of the city or the unincorporated areas of the parish and may be asked to show proof of residency with either a LUS or Allied Waste bill. The only items that will not be accepted are hazardous materials, batteries, paint, and tires. The drop off areas will be at the following locations:
The Heymann Center (1373 South College Road)
The Robicheaux Center (Neyland Park) (1919 Eraste Landry Road)
Fabacher Field (221 La Neuville Road)
Judice Park (500 Golden Grain Road, Duson, LA)
Pa Davis Park (120 Dawn Street)
The event is a partnership between the Lafayette Consolidated Government Community Development Department, Human Services Division, Allied Waste, University of Louisiana at Lafayette and Sheriff Mike Neustrom and the Lafayette Parish Sheriff's Office.
Allied Waste will provide a Roll-Off Container and a garbage truck at each location. In addition to the drop off sites, University of Louisiana at Lafayette will have 500 freshmen volunteers canvassed around streets and neighborhoods assisting in picking up items. The University of Louisiana at Lafayette volunteers are part of the Cajun Connection program. The Lafayette Parish Sheriff's Office will have inmate labor assisting as well.
"We have received a lot of interest in this day parish-wide. We hope that everyone across the parish will take the opportunity to collectively cleanup our community. Between our combined resources of LCG, Allied Waste, the University, and the Sheriff's Office, we have the opportunity to make a visual impact on our community if people participate," said Durel.

We hand-remove all gutter debris into buckets and pick up any that may have fallen to the ground. This is all followed by blowing debris from walkways and rinsing affected windows clean.
Underperforming gutters can cause rotting fascia, eroding foundation, basement leaks, and many other costly and avoidable repairs
This isn't about up-sells and overcharging. You deserve to know what shape your gutter system is in. We're interested in you getting the most out of your gutters. Any leaks, loose nails, or misaligned gutters won't be over-looked.
These guys are great! My gutters were totally clogged and I couldn't sleep because of all of the water spilling over. They came out lickety-split and I will have many peaceful nights ahead. Looking forward to using Justin to clean my gutters next season!

By Lesa Teer
After a brutal summer, pastures in the southern and High Plains states are beginning to look a lot alike--dead, dry, dusty and burnt. Cows out to pasture are growing thin, both in numbers and nutrition, and producers are selling out at an alarming rate.
Mark Bechthold of Booker, Texas, has already sold 220 head of his cow herd. "I'll probably end up selling about 90 percent," he said. "I've got a few left that are bred but I'll probably end up selling them also."
With little relief in the way of summer rainfall, pasture conditions are declining rapidly, leaving many producers with culling or feeding as their only options. Some, like Bechthold, have Conservation Reserve Program grazing land to fall back on--but even that isn't a long-term option.
"I've relied on the CRP because my native grass never did grow any over the summer due to the drought," Bechthold said. "The CRP is coming close to being over with and I didn't want to have to feed them all winter."

Pest Control » Pest Advice » How To DIY » Integrated Pest Management
Integrated Pest Management (IPM) is the use of several methods in a co-ordinated approach to preventing and controlling pests. This can be a combination of prevention, housekeeping, eradication and monitoring. IPM is environmentally sensitive and often has the aim of using fewer and less pesticides. IPM principles are as important in Do it Yourself (DIY) home and garden pest control as they are for professional and agricultural pest management.
It is rarely likely that a single approach to controlling any pest will be sufficient on its own. For best on-going success a good overall view of why there is a pest problem and what risks there are of a pest becoming a problem is needed.
What are the main approaches of Integrated Pest Management?
The US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) lists four steps in IPM;
Set Action Thresholds
What does IPM mean for you at home?
This all sounds a bit much for dealing with pests at home, but if we look at it from the home DIY pest control and gardening perspectives and simplify these principles it means:

How Much Does Liposuction on Stomach Cost?
Doctor Answers (3)
Cost of liposuction of abdomen
Liposuction prices will vary from city to city and surgeon to surgeon. There are many variables in price. Often these variables are not in the control of the surgeon, (O.R. fee, anesthesia fee, supplies, etc). Beware of bargain basement pricing. Cheap can become expensive quickly. Best to see a board certified plastic surgeon. Together you should be able to find a plan that is safe and effective.
Web reference: http://www.jjrothmd.com/procedures/liposuction

The cost for liposuction of your abdomen depends on many factors. Usually the cost is determined by the size of the area, amount of fat to be removed. the technique used, type of anesthesia, geographic area, and much more.

World Spay Day is February 28
The Humane Society of the United States (HSUS) and Humane Society International (HSI) are sponsoring World Spay Day on Tuesday, Feb. 28.
On this day and throughout the month, events and activities are being held around the world to shine a spotlight on the spaying or neutering of pets as a means of saving animals' lives.
World Spay Day provides a unique opportunity for veterinarians, animal welfare professionals, business owners and animal lovers to join together toward a common goal: a global, united effort to end the euthanasia and suffering of companion animals. Spaying and neutering is an effective and humane way of helping to reduce the number of homeless animals in shelters.
An estimated 6-8 million homeless dogs and cats enter animal shelters in the U.S. every year.
"About half of these animals are adopted," HSUS said. "Tragically, the other half are put down. The majority of animals euthanized are healthy pets who would have made great companions."
Globally, roaming pets and community animals contribute to street dog overpopulation. Often local authorities or individuals electrocute, shoot, poison, or use other brutal methods to kill unwanted animals. In addition to being inhumane, these methods are not an effective, long-term solution.
Celebrities are also doing their part to promote the benefits of spaying and neutering. Singer Ke$ha recently launched a "Street Dog Defender" campaign to promote respect, protection and compassion for these types of animals all around the world.
Actress Katherine Heigl is spearheading the "I Hate Balls" campaign to reach into all pet-friendly hearts and homes with one surgically direct mission: Fight the good fight against testicles!
There are hundreds of events taking place around the world to educate people about the life-saving importance of spaying and neutering pets.
To participate in World Spay Day and help save the lives of animals, find an event near you.

The Orange County Anglers are the oldest tournament bass fishing team in the state and have claimed 12 state championships since their start in 1999.
"It's an alternative sport for kids who like to tournament bass fish, who like to be in the outdoors," said OCHS adviser Becky Gore. "It is a tournament series so you do have the competition and it adds a lot of excitement. It's in no way boring or the bob and worm type of fishing."
Last weekend, the reigning state champions finished as team runners-up to Patrick Henry. On Sunday, the Anglers will compete individually in the Jr. B.A.S.S. Federation Nation State Qualifier, where the top three finishers advance to the Virginia Classic. Orange County senior Austin Clore is among the athletes trying to qualify for the first time.
"I just need to get on the fish, need to find them," said Clore. "I need to have good chemistry with the people I'm fishing with and make sure they're happy with what I'm doing and vice versa."
Tournament bass fishing is complex sport that involves more technical skill and strategy than most realize.
"There's a lot that goes into this, more than just going out and fishing," said Clore. "You have to use the right lure at the right time of the year. There's a lot of different stages for the fish."
On a typical tournament day, individuals go on out the water with boat captains in search of fish from about 6:30 a.m. to 1 p.m. Athletes are expected to find populated areas of fish based on their fishing waters, the fish's climate, and also with the use of maps. Individuals are judged on the amount a fish, measured in pounds.
"He has to learn how to read maps, he needs to know about the habitat of the bass," added Gore. "We have actually dissected some of the fish and talk about their sense that they use. Many of these things are incorporated in, not just going out there and throwing the line in the water. They also have to have the knowledge of all these other aspects."

UPDATED Tuesday, March 22, 2011 --- 4:35 p.m.
Details on AP analysis of Gov. Walker's emails
MADISON, Wis. (AP) -- The Associated Press review of more than 26,000 emails sent to Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker in the days after he unveiled his plan to curtail public workers' collective bargaining rights began with a request filed under the state's open records law.
The request asked for copies of the emails Walker cited during news conferences on Feb. 17 and Feb. 18. After Walker's office failed to respond, the AP on March 4 filed a lawsuit in conjunction with Isthmus, a weekly newspaper based in Madison, seeking a court order directing Walker's office to release the emails.
The lawsuit was settled with an agreement that called for Walker's office to release all of the emails it had received between the day Walker unveiled his plan on Feb. 11 through Feb. 25.
The AP created a database housing all of the emails Walker received between Feb. 11 and Feb. 17, the first day he discussed the emails in public. AP reporters and editors then read each email individually to determine whether they supported Walker, opposed him, were ambiguous or unrelated.
An analysis on the email database included sorting them by the time they were sent to Walker's office to help illustrate the scope of the support and opposition to his proposal.

Email to Wis. gov. initially favored union rights
MADISON, Wis. (AP) -- Faced with a growing protest movement, Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker cited his email, confidently declaring that most people writing his office had urged him to eliminate nearly all union rights for state workers.
But an Associated Press analysis of the emails from last month shows that, for close to a week, messages in Walker's inbox were running roughly 2-to-1 against his plans. The tide did not turn in his favor until shortly after Democrats fled the state to stop a vote they knew they would lose.
The AP analyzed more than 26,000 emails sent to Walker from the time he formally announced his plans until he first mentioned the emails in public.
During that time, the overall tally ran 55 percent in support, 44 percent against.

Wis. governor releases e-mails about union rights
MADISON, Wis. (AP) — In the days after Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker announced plans to strip the state's public workers of nearly all their union bargaining rights, his office was flooded with a deluge of e-mail.
Some constituents cheered. Others could not have been more forceful in their opposition.
"Your handling of the current situation in Madison is an embarrassment to the people of Wisconsin. You appear to be an ignorant puppet and I am ashamed to have you as governor of the state I call home," wrote a person who said he lived in Wisconsin and is married to a teacher.
Countered a woman who identified herself as a Milwaukee Public Schools employee: "Despite the outcry from the great majority of my colleagues, I am very much in favor of the changes you are proposing. This legislation is more than fair to us in the public sector and will bring a measure of financial relief to the people of our state. Keep up the good work, Governor."
Walker released the e-mails to The Associated Press on Friday, providing a first glimpse of the extent of public support the governor said he was receiving via e-mail and the extensive opposition that he has generally downplayed.
The contentious plan drew tens of thousands of pro-labor protesters to the Wisconsin Capitol and has galvanized union supporters across the country. Walker still signed the plan into law a week ago, but a judge halted it from taking effect Friday after Democrats filed a legal challenge.
The law requires all public workers, except most police and firefighters, to pay more for their benefits. It also limits most public workers' collective bargaining rights to wages only, and caps potential wage increases to the rate of inflation. The law means they can no longer negotiate issues such as work conditions, vacation time or grievance processes.
Walker first mentioned the e-mails on Feb. 17, the same day 14 Democratic state senators fled to Illinois in an effort to keep the legislation from passing. As thousands of protesters banged on drums and blew whistles outside his office door, Walker told reporters he had received 8,000 e-mails — the bulk of which he said supported his efforts.
"The majority are telling us to stay firm, to stay strong, to stand with the taxpayers," Walker said at the time. "While the protesters have every right to be heard, I'm going to make sure the taxpayers of the state are heard and their voices are not drowned out by those circling the Capitol."
The following day as an estimated 40,000 protesters flooded the Capitol, Walker said he received more than 19,000 e-mails and believed they were indicative of a "quiet majority" that backed his proposal.
An initial review by the AP of the e-mails found that many messages also expressed a fervent opposition to the plan. Some were laced with profanity and insults. One writer called Walker evil and another compared him to "maggot puke."
The AP review found that a mass e-mail Walker sent to state workers on Feb. 11, the day he introduced his proposal, thanking them for their service was met with a stream of negative responses.
"Please, keep your backhanded 'thank you's and empty compliments to yourself," one person who identified himself as a state corrections worker wrote to Walker. "Actions speak louder than words, and every one of your actions speaks quite clearly to your irrational hatred of the very people that have dedicated their lives and careers to keeping the state running safely and efficiently."
Another woman who identified herself as a state prisons sergeant wrote in capital letters: "WHY ARE YOU TRYING TO TAKE WHAT WE HAVE WORKED SO HARD FOR? WE ALL HAVE FAMILIES AND HAVE CHILDREN OF OUR OWN TO FEED! TIMES ARE HARD ENOUGH WITH THE ECONOMY THE WAY IT IS!"
Other e-mails the AP reviewed came from Wisconsin residents working in the private sector.
"I urge you to protect collective bargaining rights for public employees. Making collective bargaining illegal would be devastating to Wisconsin's working families and economy," wrote a resident from Oak Creek, Wis.
A couple from Genesee, Wis., encouraged Walker to "stay firm" and not give in to the opposition. "We support what you are doing. It's the right thing to do for Wisconsin," they wrote.
AP and Isthmus, a weekly Madison newspaper, both filed open record requests with Walker's office on Feb. 18 seeking the 8,000 messages the governor referenced at his news conference. The AP amended the request a week later, seeking all e-mails Walker had received through that day.
After receiving no response from the governor's office, the AP and Isthmus filed a joint lawsuit on March 4 seeking the e-mails. A settlement reached March 16 called for Walker to release the messages and pay the organizations' attorney fees, which came to $7,000.
The agreement specified that Walker did not acknowledge violating the state's open records law.
The public outcry over Walker's collective bargaining proposal turned the state and its Capitol into a national flashpoint as lawmakers struggled to balance state budgets crippled by the Great Recession.
Walker says the law is needed to help the state fill its current $137 million budget deficit and a projected two-year shortfall of $3.6 billion. He said the plan gives local governments the flexibility to absorb more than $1 billion in cuts to state aid that he's proposed as part of his budget plan.
Opponents, including teachers and union leaders, have argued Walker's true goal was to bust the powerful public-sector unions that have traditionally served as a strong source of support for Democrats. Minority Democrats in the state Senate fled to Illinois last month to block a vote on the plan in that chamber, giving the protests time to build.
On Friday, a Wisconsin judge issued a temporary restraining order blocking the law from taking effect. Dane County District Attorney Ismael Ozanne, a Democrat, argued a legislative committee that broke the Senate stalemate met without the 24-hour notice required by Wisconsin's open meetings law.
The order keeps Secretary of State Doug La Follette from formally publishing the law.

Posted Friday, March 18, 2011 --- 11:45 a.m.
MADISON, Wis. (AP) -- Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker has released tens of thousands of e-mails he received after introducing his plan to strip nearly all collective bargaining rights from public workers.
Walker released the e-mails on Friday after The Associated Press and the Madison weekly newspaper Isthmus filed a lawsuit seeking them. Both news organizations submitted open record requests for the e-mails in February, but got no response for two weeks.
The AP and Isthmus reached a settlement with Walker on Wednesday calling for the governor to release the messages and pay attorney fees.
The agreement specified that Walker did not acknowledge violating the state's open records law.
Walker signed the collective bargaining legislation into law last week following a month of protests that brought as many as 85,000 people to the Capitol.

The Burbank Tournament of Roses Association holds an annual world-wide open design contest. Submitted designs from all over the states are screened for theme, build ability and decorating possibilities. Members then vote on which design to build at a special meeting.
Our young lady is going on a great adventure discovering the great secrets of the sea.
It was picked by our entire Association as the best idea to express the Parade Theme, Oh, the Places You'll Go!
FLOAT BUILDER: Burbank Tournament of Roses Association
FLOAT DESCRIPTION: Height: 22 feet, Width: 20 feet, Length: 50 feet
Watch a Float Building Video Message
An adventurous young girl takes a magical journey in her colorful submarine. Oh, the places she will go, with the help of her underwater friends. Her tour will not be complete until she sees all the many wonders of the marine world. This is Burbank's 81st entry for the 124th Tournament of Roses parade. The float is designed by Richard Burrow from Mission Viejo who won the associations' annual float design contest.
A young girl maneuvers a submarine, pulled by sea horses in an underwater adventure with an octopus as her tour guide.
Our Deco Team has been working diligently to find exciting organic materials to use on our float that may have not been used before. We look for color and textures that will bring our float to life.
The undersea tour guide (octopus) is covered with over 30,000 lavender cushion mums, his suction cups are Portobello Mushrooms and Lotus Pods. The brightly colored submarine is covered with Strawflower, roses, mums and lentil. Our young girl is exploring all the places she can go in her hot pink Bougainvillea blouse, white rice captain's hat with strawflower accents and golden uva grass hair. She is holding tight to her adventure with raffia rope reigns. The seahorses are covered with over 2,000 purple and green cushion mums, purple statice, blue Malva, Parsley Flakes & black Asian moss.
The treasure chest is covered with Melaleucca bark, Ti Leaves and the lobster is dressed in flowers from the Australian Flame Tree. Our friendly blow fish is covered in Scabiosa pods with Sago Palm Spikes. The City of Burbank clam is covered with Esperanza roses and pink ravel roses. The turtle family is covered with Shiitake mushrooms and Jacaranda pods, lentil, split peas & walnut shells. Our happy sand castle & builders, on the back of the float, are covered with Annatto Powder, Quinoa, Farina, rose petals, Lavender and Flax Seed. The coral bottom of the sea is covered with approx. 16,000 roses in a variety of colors, seaweed, crape myrtle, and artichoke flowers.
Our float has a number of items collected from trees in the City of Burbank like Australian flame tree flower, Jacaranda Pods, Gold Medallion Flowers, Elder Flower, Purple Plum Leaves and Kumquats. It will also have a variety of fruits and vegetables on it.
Burbank Tournament of Roses Association enters a "floatlet" in Burbank On Parade, a community spirit parade held in the spring. Association members design, build and decorate a mini-float to fit the parade theme. We have won several awards, including the President's Trophy for best depiction of parade theme.
Burbank first took part in the parade in 1914, however, not all entries since then have been floats. In 1930 and 1931, we were represented by decorated automobiles! The Burbank Tournament of Roses Association is one of six all-volunteer float building organizations in the parade. All design, construction, and decoration work is done entirely by volunteers, some of them as young as six years old. All work is performed in the Burbank Water and Power Department yard at 123 W Olive Ave, Burbank, CA 91502.
Opportunities to build and decorate extend to residents and visitors of Burbank and surrounding communities. Among participants are scout groups, community service groups and high school clubs. After the Post Parade Viewing, this float will be on display in the City of Burbank at the corner of Olive and Glenoaks for several more days (January 3-6, 2013). Check out our website at www.BurbankRoseFloat.com for information on design contest, other float entries, volunteering, and more!
Seahorses move up and down, the fins on the submarine go up and down, the octopus tentacles move, the clam shells open and close, the periscope looks side to side and blinks at the crowd and the little creatures on the back move as they build a sand castle.
Water feature, bubbles and lights. Our drive and animation engines are fueled by Propane to reduce emissions. Both the drive engine and the animation engine have been propane powered since 1991. A new cleaner burning propane-powered animation engine was designed and built by volunteers for the 2007 parade.
The system includes a new General Motors 5.7 liter industrial engine, a 9500 watt A/C electrical generator which is integrated into the engine assembly, and a custom-built, 108 gallon hydraulic reservoir, donated by Hydro-Craft. A computer-based animation controller is used to synchronize character movements. Several mini video cameras are installed on the float to provide a float's view of the parade route. The driver can view the live video feed for additional observing capability. An on-board video recorder is used to produce a time-lapse video.
