NekoYeah, I am still alive
even thought I haven't been here much. There aren't much news, the same old. There are good days, and there are bad days. I am not sure which ones more since when it's a bad day it seems to consume so much my energy that I forget the good days. However it's not depression. I am still capable of thinking positively. And the bad mood doesn't suck me into too deep.
The cat is huge mood lifter. And she also gets me up from the bed by mourning so much that I can't sleep :D I have spent time with my friends and done exercise. The job situation is what bothers me much. And it bothers me cos I try so much but see no results. It makes me feel like I am a loser. And I am getting short of arguments against that thought. I just try to take day by day and believe that someday it will be my lucky day. And keep trying. I really shouldn't give up on my dreams cos that's all I have. 2 years ago

Knowing others is intelligence; knowing yourself is true wisdom. Mastering others is strength, mastering yourself is true power.Lao-Tzu
The power of man's virtue should not be measured by his special efforts, but by his ordinary doings.Blaise Pascal 1623
Diplomacy means all the wicked devices of the Old World, spheres of influence, balances of power, secret treaties, triple alliances, and, during the interwar period, appeasement of Fascism.Barbara Tuchman
Responsibility walks hand in hand with capacity and power.Josiah Gilbert Holland
The only power any government has is the power to crack down on criminals. Well, when there aren't enough criminals, one makes them. One declares so many things to be a crime that it becomes impossible for men to live without breaking laws.Ayn Rand
The values indicated by status-insecure parents are such that their children learn to put personal success and the acquisition of power above all else. They are taught to judge people for their usefulness rather than their likeableness. Their friends, and even future marriage partners, are selected and used in the service of personal advancement; love and affection take second place to knowing the right people. They are taught to eschew weakness and passivity, to respect authority, and to despise those who have not made the socio-economic grade. Success is equated with social esteem and material advantage, rather than with more spiritual values.Norman F. Dixon
Genius, by its very intensity, decrees a special path of fire for its vivid power.Phillips Brooks
Are you sure the power is off?unknown
The attempt to combine wisdom and power has only rarely been successful and then only for a short whileAlbert Einstein
The men who succeed are the efficient few. They are the few who have the ambition and will power to develop themselves.Robert Burton
Austere perseverance, harsh and continuous, may be employed by the least of us and rarely fails of its purpose, for its silent power grows irreversibly greater with time.Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe 1749
Among the mind\'s powers is one that comes of itself to many children and artists. It need not be lost, to the end of his days, by anyone who has ever had it. This is the power of taking delight in a thing, or rather in anything, not as a means to some other end, but just because it is what it is. A child in the full health of his mind will put his hand flat on the summer lawn, feel it, and give a little shiver of private glee at the elastic firmness of the globe.Charles E Montague
believe every person is created as the steward of his or her destiny with great power for a specific purpose to share with others, through service, a reverence for life in a spirit of love.zzz
Look to this day In it lies all the realities and verities of existence, the bliss of growth, the splendor of action, the glory of power. For yesterday is but a dream and tomorrow is only a vision. But today, well-lived, makes every yesteday a dream of happiness and every tomorrow a vision of hope.Sanskrit Proverb
Those who profess to favor freedom and yet depreciate agitation, are people who want crops without ploughing the ground; they want rain without thunder and lightning; they want the ocean without the roar of its many waters. The struggle may be a moral one, or it may be a physical one, or it may be both. But it must be a struggle. Power concedes nothing without a demand; it never has and it never will.Frederick Douglass
Real, constructive mental power lies in the creative thought that shapes your destiny, and your hour-by-hour mental counduct produces power for change in your life. Develop a train of thought on which to ride. The nobility of your life as well as your happiness depends upon the direction in which that train of thought is going.Laurence J. Peter
Once you learn to contact and release the hidden power of your subconscious mind, you can bring into your life more power, more wealth, more health, more happiness, and more joy.Joseph Murphy
The power of your subconscious mind will build up mental and physical wounds, proclaim liberty to the fear ridden mind, and liberate you completely from the limitations of poverty, failure, misery, lack, and frustration.Joseph Murphy
Miracle will happen to you too, when you begin using the magic power of your subconscious mindJoseph Murphy
Miracle working power of your subconscious mind can heal you of your sickness, making you vital and strong again.Joseph Murphy
I long to hear that you have declared an independency. And by the way, in the the new Code of Laws which I suppose it will be necessary for you to make I desire you would Remember the Ladies, and be more generous and favourable to them than your ancestors. Do not put such unlimited power into the hands of the Husbands. Remember all Men would be tyrants if they could. If particular care and attention is not paid to the Ladies we are determined to foment a Rebellion, and will not hold ourselves bound by any Laws in which we have no voice, or Representation. That your Sex are Naturally Tyrannical is a Truth so thoroughly established as to admit of no dispute, but such of you as wish to be happy willingly give up the harsh title of Master for the more tender and endearing one of Friend. Why, then, not put it out of the power of the vicious and the Lawless to use us with cruelty and indignity with impunity? Men of Sense in all Ages abhor those customs which treat us only as the vassals of your sex; regard us then as Beings placed by Providence under your protection, and in imitation of the Supreme Being make use of that power only for our happiness.Abigail Adams
If it were not my purpose to combine barbarian things with things Hellenic, to traverse and civilize every continent, to search out the uttermost parts of land and sea, to push the bounds of Macedonia to the farthest Ocean, and to disseminate and shower the blessings of the Hellenic justice and peace over every nation, I should not be content to sit quietly in the luxury of idle power, but I should emulate the frugality of Diogenes. But as things are, forgive me Diogenes, that I imitate Herakles, and emulate Perseus, and follow in the footsteps of Dionysos, the divine author and progenitor of my family, and desire that victorious Hellenes should dance again in India and revive the memory of the Bacchic revels among the savage mountain tribes beyond the KaukasosAlexander III
All the best sands of my life are somehow getting into the wrong end of the hourglass. If I could only reverse it! Were it in my power to do so, would I?Thomas Bailey Aldrich
The idea of a God we infer from our experimental dependence on something superior to ourselves in wisdom, power and goodness, which we call God; our senses discover to us the works of God which we call nature, and which is a manifest demonstration of his invisible essence. Thus it is from the works of nature that we deduce the knowledge of a God, and not because we have, or can have any immediate knowledge of, or revelation from him.Ethan Allen

Written on 13 April 2014, 18.12
Dear Jayapataka Swami, Please accept my humble obeisances. All Glories to Srila Prabhupada! It is my great fortune to have your association and guidance. Without your association, without hearing your transcendental words of wisdom in the service of our Guru Maharaj Srila Prabhupada, the world would seem empty and in darkness. In your class about the Deity of Vishnupur Who fired a canon to destroy the army attacking the city, you mentioned that at that time some 300 years after Gauranga, Srinivas Acharya was protecting the Sampradaya. After...

The resounding loud chant of Gauranga-Nityananda reminds us of HH Jayapataka Swami Maharaj. At Palam Airport Delhi, I saw HH Jayapataka Swami Maharaj first time with HH Gopal Krishna Goswami Maharaj. Maharaj was spiritually inclined since childhood; once he had a skin disease, his grandfather asked him to chant Lord's name and just by doing that, he cured himself. In terms of his education, he was exceptionally bright; he got many scholarships. Once he heard about the life of Lord Buddha and completely lost interest in studies and started looking...

Dear God Brother,What can an aspiring bhakta say about you. If I had to say one word, I would say, "Awesome". Of course "amazing", and many others are still cannot really describe the intensity of your desire to serve Srila Prabhupada and increase his mission.You have always treating me very respectfully, although I am mostly a disturbance in society. I never had an older brother. I had one senior cousin, but he mostly teased me. You have always been a a perfect older brother, both by your example of determination to serve our beloved...

Dear Prabhus, Please accept my humble obeisances. All glories to Srila Prabhupada. It may be news to you, but in those days, the men and the women did not associate very much, so I can't really say I had too much direct association with JayapatakaMaharaj. One year, however, 1982, I happened to be in Mayapur from Bombay after the festival with my two year old. I was there during a dacoit attack in which they stole the Radharani and blew off Raghava Pandit's bad leg. I was in the guesthouse above the temple on the third floor listening to the...

There is no question in my mind: HH Jayapataka Maharaja is definitely an empowered personality who has only one desire in his heart - to spread the mercy of Sri CaitanyaMahaprabhu. What is that mercy? Sri CaitanyaMahaprabhu does not consider who is a fit or an unfit recipient of mercy. He just gives it freely, just like the monsoon cloud benefits every field with rain - the field of a simple farmer, the field of a sadhu, and even the field of a rascal. I have seen HH Jaya Pataka Maharaja distributing the mercy of Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu in the...

This year, I feel a special gratitude to H.H. Jayapataka Swami. Recently, as my health improved after years of struggle, I began a project to expand our western missionary activities.

The game is great story wise. However, the ending might not be appealing to everyone.
Skill tree is fantastic; you can add points to any skill no matter what is your class, which gives you opportunity to create flexible character.
Exploration is great. There are hundreds of places to explore. It is also rewarding. Just an ordinary crate can have the best armor or weapon in the game.
Flying in dragon form is fun. This is probably the only thing that works well in the game.
The character design is non-existing.
The graphics are not appealing at all. Actually, it's pretty horrible.
The mechanics of the game are broken. It is impossible to lock on to the target no matter how hard you try. Not to mention that it would never lock on the target you want.
Saving system is also broken. DO NOT OVERWRITE SAVES! This corrupts saves. Rather, save new and delete the previous one.
I can give some tips if you have trouble with the game.
-play this game as mage; it is easier to kill enemies from the distance.
-focus only on few skills. Fireball works great. Add points to destruction. Get "summon the undead" skill. Later on you can summon the undead (or demon) and your creature to fight by your side at the same time.
-maximize lock picking.
-always have a bow and a melee weapon available.
-when you complete the quest, don't take the money, rather take experience points. I found money useless. I never used any potions (only in the last boss fight), neither I bought any weapons or armor. Everything you can find in the crates or as quest reward.
-read the minds of every single boss, it often gives you extra skill point.
-don't take any books unless it is skill point book or quest item.

I see nothing really wrong with it. The graphics are amazing. The gameplay is great. The weapons and armors are plentiful. Quests and sidejobs are interesting. The best feature of the game I think, is the ability to not just chose one preset skill slot. (Like Dragon Age and many other games of this type).
You have the choice to be a flame throwing duel wielding ranger with pick-pocket skills and the ability to use offensive and defensive spells. It is amazing.
I also saw that people are saying its way too hard and unrealistic in difficulty. Well, you dont know strategy do you? I went with a ranger to get the bow right away. I pick off my foes from a distance and run if they are too high level. Shoot and run...shoot and run. Not a big deal. If you've got a mob of 5 skeletons the smart thing would be to try to pick off a couple before you just bum rush the entire group of 5. Which is what I think these people were doing.
So if you are reading the other reviews and are not sure...trust me...rent it. It is worth it.

I say this because this game is in no means easy. Save always and save often because death awaits around every corner, save yourself a frustrating retread through areas you've already been through.
As I said I still really like this game it's not really like anything out on the 360 as of yet the graphics are pretty good and the environments are relitivly crisp. The audio is on point and the voice work is believable and not as annoying as some of dragon ages characters are and you can speed through the dialog if you want.
this game really shines though in its skill progression, yes in the first chapter you pick either mage, warrior, or archer but you can mix it up any way you want and learn whatever skills you want be a mage with ranger skills with hand to hand combat or a warrior who summons ghosts and picks locks. The combinations are endless and completely up to you to choose. so go out there level up and create a character that suits your own playing style, just dont forget to save and try to do every side quest that you can because xp is in short supply. and don't forget to mind read it help alot with quests but don't abuse it because it costs XP.
Overall awesome game but not for everyone
Deep, engaging, weeks of playtime

Ego Draconis is surprisingly great.
The only thing that almost turned me off this game was how tough it seemed in the beginning. I kept dying and felt like I didn't know what to do. Once you spend some serious time with the game and figure out how it works, it's a pleasure from there on out.

Janky Port of a Solid PC RPG

But like Two Worlds, this game is weak port of a vastly superior PC version of the game. The framerate probably hovers in the 15-20 FPS range (at best), the graphics are pretty poor, and worst of all, the character animations are abysmal. I also had some odd trouble with the save system; sometimes the save would not load until I dropped back to the dashboard and then rebooted the game. Even stranger was an issue where when I'd load a save my character stats/progress would be correct, but my character's position in the world would be from a previous save. Really weird.
The final straw that made me stop playing after 4 or 5 hours was the difficulty. This game is frustrating and sometimes unfairly difficult unless you grind. Now keep in mind I have played Demon's Souls to completion. But playing as a level 10 character I would routinely get swarmed and destroyed by level 11 enemies. Early in the game potions are relatively expensive and hard to come by. Often you'll also get locked into a room or temple with beasties much stronger than you - if you haven't been keeping multiple saves, you're outta luck. Demon's Souls was difficult in a tactical sense - this game, even when set on Easy, is difficult because you can easily get swarmed and beat to death by enemies that do too much damage. If you want a leisurely RPG experience where you explore and plow through enemies, look away. Prepare to grind and do every side quest to level up properly and succeed.
I did enjoy the humorous writing and the voice acting is pretty solid. The story seemed decent as far as RPGs go. If you need a weird German PC-to-360 port RPG, I'd recommend Sacred 2 - it translates much better.
well not much good to be said.

I was hesitant to put this particular game on my Q because of the low rating. I found that this game did have many problems such as loading the game after getting my rear end handed to me after getting pwned by one of the more difficult enemies. Most of the problems i had with this game are mostly tied to loading. Sometimes i would load the game and it would show me my death and freeze. Other times i would be locked out of important quest areas. Still other times i would load successfully, but the game would put me in some ridiculous place far,far away from where i had saved it.
There was a solution to this thankfully. Loading a different save file or the autosave and then loading the file you want bypassed the warping or getting me locked out of rooms i was in. The other solution was to restart from the dashboard
another thing that i disliked was monsters did not re-spawn at higher levels. Once an area is cleared monsters won't repopulate, which i thought made the game a little dull running around with no monsters to kill until you find a new area, then the glorious bloodshed can begin again!!
I really enjoyed the game because it had some unique qualities. you can shortcut the four actions you use the most (normal attack/potion/magic skill/ranged skill for example)
I think this game is challenging enough yet simple enough. Unless you have less than ample adaptability or intelligence you might not be able to appreciate this game, as doing stupid things would really mess you up, like failing quests or something similar.

I own over 60 games (why? I have no idea!) so that is certainly saying something when I cannot put one single one down. Yes, you become a dragon (20+ hours in). Yes, you become master of your own battle tower (again, 20+ hours in). Yes, you can craft your own unique undead monster - GO ONLINE AND WATCH THE PROMOTIONAL VIDEOS REGARDING THESE FEATURES AND TELL ME YOU ARE NOT IMPRESSED! I CANNOT GRASP HOW PEOPLE (ahem, reviewers) ARE NOT RESPONDING TO THIS GAME!
I played through as an archer and no, lockpicking is not a good investment of skill in this game. Instead, focus on Master Herbalist, Reflect, (and in my own case) Way of the Ranger with Explosive Arrows!
I have played Dragon Age: Origins and thought it a total bore - YES A BORE - as it took me well over 80 hours to play one of the most predictable, cliche games out there.
Give DIVINITY II a try and it will hook you in - 3rd person dodging during combat in a close-up over-the-shoulder view? H-LL YES! Archery through an over-the-shoulder 3rd person view? H-LL YES! And that's not to mention anything about the story or progression of the character build . . .
MY ONLY COMPLAINT - SPOILER - RIVERTOWN IS NOT A MASSIVE 3rd AREA LIKE BROKEN VALLEY OR OROBAK FJORDS! That's it! Not a big deal as the story explains why - I was just expecting a 3rd area similar to Viking was all. I love this game and the least you can do is try it for yourself.
Seriously, though, are people completely distilled lately? How dare they say this targeting system is broken? How could I have completed this game playing faithfully as a stealthy rogue/archer with a broken aiming reticule? STOP BEING RIDICULOUS!
I love this game - it brought me back to Knights of the Old Republic for playability and its surely been a very long time. Of course, Red Dead is my fave now
Excellent Rpg

Now the bad... This game has so many bugs its essentially not playable. The graphics are xbox 1 level at best. The auto-save function is next to worthless. The quests are generic and not plentiful enough to keep up with the difficulty in the game. Most creatures of equal level can kill you in one shot. You are often attacked by swarms of creatures at a time any one of which can easily 1 shot you. What really takes the cake though is when you die , which you will often, the game tends to lock up. Forcing you to exit out to dashboard and reload the entire game. Another interesting bug is that when you do get back into the game you are often transported to the location of your old save. For me this worked out really well because I was in a locked encounter and upon dying was moved to another building and couldnt get back into the locked encounter. The items you pick up off the ground are also very small and dont glimmer , highlight or give any indication that you can pick them up. You have to individually scroll over every corner of your map to find which items you can and cant pick up. Very tedious and frustrating when you walk into a room with 14 crates 13 of which are empty.

If you are just dying to play a RPG you can definitely find a better one out there. Perhaps try Dragon Age and I have heard good things about the new Magna Carta game. Heck if you are not above turn-based combat check out Lost Odyssey, a little too robust for my tastes (3 game discs I believe) but it seemed to have potential. And of course, check out Mass Effect in you can buy into the whole RPG -in-space concept.
I know you are tempted to play this game because you build your own dragon but trust me, it's not any fun to do. Feels like work you are not getting paid to do. No thanks.

This game felt like the better version of Two Worlds. That simple. It's not NEARLY as bad as Two Worlds was, but not as good as Dragon Age is.
The story is pretty solid; this is the first game I've played that lets your character have shining silver eyes, which is always a plus! And the fighting style of your character makes him look SO awesome...
But, again, like Two Worlds, it tried too hard. It's near impossible to put the curser on anything to pick it up (it's about the size of the curser in Oblivion, but in Third Person, which does NOT work at all). The bugs are... ugh... the people walking around in the towns looks SO much like a program, it makes me sick to my stomach (literly, no joke here!).
Another plus would be the fact that you can change the look of your character any time you wanted, even gender! Now THAT'S pretty cool... but kind of takes away of making the player think really hard of how he or she wants his or her character to look like.
And the voices. Ugh!!! I couldn't quite hear then all the time. I'm sorry, but I don't have super sonic freaking hearing! Even when the voice is set on 100%, it's STILL hard to hear, enough so that I have to increase the volume on my TV to hear them. Now, it's not all the time like this (Thank God!), but it gets annoying,
So, in the end, it's a better version of Two Worlds. It tried WAY too hard to be a good game (it really could have been!), the glitches makes it feel like they rushed it out, and... there are just too many games like this these days. They should have just stopped at Dragon Age, because there's NO WAY a game could top that, or can still be good after so many others came out.
Honestly, they should start making regular RPG for a bit, like Kingdom Hearts!
Anyway, if you HAVE to play this, then only rent it. Only thing I like are the silvery eyes! X3

Being a dragon is fun though. They do pretty well hiding little places in cliffs and such that you simply have to find.
Overall, a descent game that could have been much better.

> The story line, this is very sad, because this is the only thing I could justify putting in the PROS column. The main quest itself and many of the side quests are very entertaining, both funny and solemn, with lots of dialog and twists.
> EVERYTHING ELSE, including (but not limited to):
> Targeting system, as I said before, this game is free roaming. For some reason the developers decided that a lock on system was right for this game, and apparently never play tested it after implementation. Ranged weapons have a VERY limited range, and though you can break the lock while aiming, YOU DEAL NO DAMAGE WHEN IN FREE AIM MODE!
> Difficulty curve, it is important to note that your character builds skills and gains powers based on an XP system. Even though I killed EVERY creature and completed EVERY quest in EACH area as I progressed, I still found myself being trounced by the SAME enemies I fought in the previous area.
> Production quality, graphics, sound, character customization, whatever the category, this title scores below average in them all. There is absolutely nothing here that breaks any new ground.
>Combat, which is very repetitive and consists mostly of button mash combos, with some generic magic.

My baby boy is 6 weeks Wed. and the last couple days he's been a little bit fussy and changed his eating habits. Instead of increasing his intake he is eating less, everything I read says in a growth spurt they want to eat more?
He always eats about every 2-3 hrs.. now its about every 2, but instead of 3oz he might finish 1 oz.. sometimes 2. Hardly ever does he finish the bottle.
He's had/ has some constipation and gas issues, and now he has a stuffy nose .. but is this a growth spurt hes going though? Or naybe he isnt feeling well and not wanting the food so much?
... really hoping this is a Growth spurt. Anyone else have their baby eat less in a growth spurt?

Numerous organizations and associations are involved in the voluntary regulation of medical education in the United States. The primary accreditation organization for undergraduate medical education is the Liaison Committee on Medical Education (LCME). LCME (www.lcme.org) is the nationally recognized accrediting authority for medical education programs leading to the M.D. degree in U.S. and Canadian medical schools. The LCME is sponsored by the Association of American Medical Colleges and the American Medical Association. All state licensing boards in the United States require graduation from an LCME-accredited school to be eligible for licensure as an allopathic physician.
LCME has a three-step process for granting accreditation to new medical schools:
Provisional accreditation has been granted and we are now recruiting our fifth class, our first full class of 120 for August 2013.

Issues with www. and no www.
I'm having a kind of wierd problem with my newly installed ISPConfig 3 setup.
I've got two DNS servers linked together, and bought the domain: honstreams.com just for testing purposes.
When I go to www.honstreams.com it works fine, but if I drop the www. I get nowhere.
If I run dig @localhost this is the output:
me@server:/$ dig @localhost honstreams.com
So I just can't figure out why it doesn't work properly..
Any thoughts?
It's working for me. Sometimes it can take up to 72 hours until DNS changes propagate. I guess this was the problem here.
I have no idea what I did to make things work - so any thoughts on what it COULD have been would be awesome!
Maybe your browser cache?
And even tried cleared the cache!
Oh well, seems to work now - even if I have no idea what I did..

12/27 Update: Shortstop BBQ restaurant is "soft" opening for two days this week. On Tuesday and Wednesday, the owners are offering 50% off the menu for family, friends, Facebook and Twitter followers. The restaurant plans to open with regular hours on Jan. 2. Ă' Address: 711 N. Placentia Ave, Fullerton. Get details about the soft opening at the food truck's Facebook page.
The owners of Shortstop BBQ, an Orange County-based food truck, plan to open a brick- and-mortar restaurant specializing in barbecue near Cal State Fullerton in December.
Andrew Honore, 25; his wife, Mary; and his brother Alex started their barbecue food truck one year ago with the desire to eventually open a quick-service restaurant under the same name.
For the Honores, barbecue is a family affair. Their grandfather worked as a chuck wagon cook in Texas and eventually opened his own pit barbecue restaurant where he created original recipes.
"Barbecue is kind of in our blood," Honore said. "We grew up hearing about barbecue and how there was no good barbecue in Orange County."
Honore, who has worked at popular food chains like In-N-Out Burger and Chipotle Mexican Grill, said he always envisioned opening a quick-service restaurant and that when he found the Fullerton location near his home, he couldn't pass it up.>

Marcos Maidana is one of the most powerful fighters of Argentina. He has accomplished a lot more and then he has an actual victory. Even though his skills are not polish and he is a bit wild and unpredictable. At the end of the day. He is the loser in this situation, and the praise should go to Mayweather for finding a way to defeat him. Maidana had gloves that has been questioned. Not just the custom glove but the glow he has worn and other fights. That's just something else to think about.

Danica Patrick and the Daytona 500
Find a Conversation
|Tue, 02-19-2013 - 9:07am
I don't know if any of you are NASCAR fans but even if you aren't, surely you've seen where a woman, Danica Patrick, is the buzz when it comes to racing news right now. She's the first woman to ever win the prized pole position at the Daytona 500. I've loosely followed her career for many years now and I think it incredible that she has done so well in a clearly male dominated sport. While I am not exactly a fan of hers, I have to admire her for sticking to her dreams. She is a great example of being able to do anything one wants to do regardless of gender.
In my few years of life I've seen things change drastically for women. It'll be interesting to tell my great-grandchildren that once upon a time women couldn't do ________ simply because they were female. I bet they will find it unbelievable.
|Tue, 02-19-2013 - 9:30am
I don't follow NASCAR at all but I did hear about this. Any time women make inroads in a predominantly male field, that is a wonderful thing!

Fla. finds no wrongdoing in several voting cases
Florida law-enforcement authorities are closing several voter fraud investigations, although there are major cases from the 2012 election still pending.
The Florida Department of Law Enforcement has found no wrongdoing with the registration of 20 people who signed up through the Rock the Vote website. FDLE agents interviewed the people and said the information they gave was accurate.
Additionally, FDLE has closed one case against a person accused of voting in the states of Florida and Rhode Island due to a lack of evidence that the person existed. The case was initiated by a group called True the Vote.
FDLE is still investigating alleged fraud involving a company hired by the state's Republican Party to register voters. Authorities are also looking into fake letters that questioned the citizenship of voters.

ORIGINAL REPORT: ASHLAND CITY, TN - The convicted felon from Cheatham County known as "Little Houdini" is back in handcuffs.
Christopher Gay "Little Houdini" Unconscious After Reported Overdose
Stream Fox 17 newscasts LIVE starting with Fox 17 This Morning at 5 am and News at 9 pm.
UPDATE: After being taken into custody earlier this month, Christopher "Little Houdini" Gay is now unconscious in a Nashville hospital after an alleged overdose attempt.
Attorney Kate Dyer tells Fox 17 News Gay's wife told her he saved up his anti-depressants over a few days and OD on them.
Dyer says she requested he put under psych watch in his preliminary hearing for this reason and it was denied. Dyer adds she has not received any details of yet from the Cheatham County Sheriff's Office.
ORIGINAL REPORT: ASHLAND CITY, TN - The convicted felon from Cheatham County known as "Little Houdini" is back in handcuffs.
He's escaped from authorities twice in the past few years.
Now he's spending the night in the Cheatham County jail.
Gay's attorney Kate Dyer's story is completely different from authorities'.
She says her client, Christopher Daniel Gay, has done nothing wrong though Cheatham County Sheriffs deputies and the US Marshals say he's a wanted man.
It's taken almost a month to track down the 39-year old.
Gay has been wanted since November 11th on aggravated assault and evading arrest charges after the sheriff's office says he led them on a chase.
According to Dyer, he was wrongfully targeted during a burglary sting then.
Now, because of that, she says he's been wrongfully arrested after being found in a Jackson, Tennessee Wal-Mart parking lot Wednesday morning.
We're told Gay was driving a semi without a trailer.
US Marshals say they got a tip he would be there and watched him for several hours before his arrest which he reportedly again tried to run from.
Gay is a felon on parole and getting arrested is a parole violation.
He has a long history of arrests as well as charges for burglaries, forgeries and thefts.
He's escaped during transport twice, most recently in March 2009.
Gay is most known for stealing singer Crystal Gayle's tour bus in Whites Creek during one of those escapes in 2007.
He spent 8-years in prison and is currently wanted by the Tennessee Department of Corrections for parole and probation violations.
Sheriff's investigators tell us Gay was supposed to turn himself in last week but didn't.
Because he's on parole, he's being held without bond and will appear in court next Wednesday.

First Lamb and Wool Expo scheduled
The NDSU Extension Service and North Dakota Lamb and Wool Producers Association have teamed up to hold a two-day program to introduce more people to lamb and wool.
The North Dakota Lamb and Wool Expo will be held Aug. 2-3 at the Stutsman County Fairgrounds in Jamestown, N.D. This is the first event of its kind in the state.
"Because lamb is an uncommon protein for most consumers and many people who raise sheep, we are hosting this event to try to educate sheep producers and potential consumers about lamb," says Reid Redden, NDSU Extension sheep specialist and one of the program's organizers.
"It is not just for sheep people," he adds. "In fact, most of the morning sessions on Aug. 2 would be fun for just about any audience."
Three of those workshops will introduce participants to a variety of topics: cooking with lamb, working with wool and training a stock dog. A fourth workshop that morning, Alternative Sheep Grazing Systems, will be held at the AL Ranch near Woodworth. All four sessions run from 9 a.m. to noon.
Following a noon lamb lunch, the expo will offer workshops on lamb fabrication; lamb quality characteristics; the past, present and future of the U.S. lamb market; flock health management; and the future of the U.S. sheep industry. Other activities on Aug. 2 include a sheep shearing and wool-handling demonstration, a lamb dinner and a shepherds social.
Events on Aug. 3 are a lamb lunch, the Ram Consignor Sheep Show and the Jamestown Ram and Ewe Sale. A vendor fair will be held both days.
The cost of just attending one of the workshops the morning of Aug. 2 or only the afternoon and evening sessions is $25 per person. The full registration for both days of the expo, if registering by July 26, is $45 per adult plus $25 for each addition adult family member and $10 for each child age 5 to 17. The expo is free for children under age 5. After July 26, the cost is $50 per adult and $100 per family.
For more information, contact Redden at 701-231-5597 or email@example.com.

NDSU is recognized as one of the nation's top 108 public and private universities by the Carnegie Commission on Higher Education.

Document Type Master's Dissertation Author Pretorius, Wilhelmus URN etd-03252010-160052 Document Title Bootstrap financing applied by South African entrepreneur Degree MBA Department Gordon Institute of Business Science Supervisor
Advisor Name Title Mr R Gunn Supervisor Keywords
- entrepreneurship
Date 2008-04-04 Availability unrestricted Abstract
The purpose of this research was to explore the application of creative techniques utilised by entrepreneurs in a South African context in order to gain access to the financial and other resources required to start up new businesses. These techniques are defined as bootstrap financing techniques. Further to this the research then set out to determine whether the application of the identified techniques differed based on certain predefined characteristics of the business and entrepreneur.
The study was based on the principals of a descriptive research study. Previously identified characteristics of bootstrap financing were combined in a survey in order to conduct quantitative research on the techniques utilised by South African entrepreneurs. The study further more gathered specific information on the characteristics of the businesses as well as the entrepreneurs for the purpose of further evaluation.
The research determined the most important bootstrap financing techniques as perceived by South African entrepreneurs. Furthermore the results indicated that that there were specific bootstrap financing techniques for which the age or size of the business influenced the importance of the application for the technique. Differences in education characteristics of the entrepreneur, was also found to be related to the differences between associated importances of some of the bootstrap financing techniques identified.
Finally these results were used to construct an operating model for entrepreneurs depending on the characteristics of their business or of themselves, while also considering the overall importance of the techniques evaluated.
