"If the Legendaries are so superior, then why do the humans speak of them as though they are nothing but pawns…pieces of a plan that must be obtained? These so-called Legendary Pokémon are in danger, that much is certain."
The balance of power is shifting…Rating: PG-13 for violence, blood/gore, and language. Genre: Action/Adventure, Suspense. Pokéfic Genre: Original Trainer (non-journey), Team Rocket, Legendary
- Welcome to LC, a fanfic that has been on these forums almost as long as they've been alive. I've spent the past ten years revising it (with a 3-year hiatus during college) so I hope to bring you the best reading experience I can.
- LC is recommended for readers ages 13 and up. Although it features violence, language, questionable themes, and dark subjects, it is rather light compared to some of the more mature works on these forums.
- I fully admit that this fic contains many elements that, well...quite frankly are considered clichéd. That's what I get for continuing to write a fic I started when I was twelve. Nowadays, my intent is to deliberately utilize these clichés in the hopes of using them as well as I possibly can, possibly showing them in a new light in the process.

~Prologue: Separation~
The time has come, the era draws nearer…
Every day the balance grows more unstable…how long until it falls?
Our actions tip the scale…how long until the past is destroyed?
The Revolution is coming…
A pair of eyes snapped open suddenly, radiating an eerie cobalt aura and illuminating the inky blackness within the depths of the sea. The true blessing of light had never reached the utter darkness of the ocean floor, and even the rare glow of life could not betray its concealment. The creature to which the eyes belonged knew this better than any other. The deep was always dark and always would be. The deep was always calm—not like the surface. The deep could always hide those who wished to be hidden.
The ancient creature had spent much time within this realm of its dominion, reflecting upon the state of the world. The Order of the Legends had been empowered to protect the balance, and protect it they had. For so long they had kept watch over its course…caring for it…guiding it. At that thought, the words of the other Legendary Pokémon echoed within the creature's mind. It had been so long ago—the time when that balance had fallen.
The story was well known amongst the Order of Legends, though after eons of being passed on, retelling after retelling, it was now more myth than truth. Such thoughts had been the creature's sole focus; the legend told of a time when Pokémon and humans had lived divided. And just when it seemed that the two worlds would be joined, conflict had torn the land apart. It had taken every effort for the Order to mend the balance, though the exact tale had been lost to time.
Remembering the secrets of the past only brought further urgency upon the present. There was still one last legacy from that era, and it was far more significant than any of them had imagined. The events of the past few months had confirmed it—that much was certain.
At once, the creature shot up from the ocean trench like a silver torpedo. The crushing depths released their hold as it flew through the water, scattering countless tiny water Pokémon in its wake. Piercing eyes adjusted to the rapid increase of light just in time to be met with the inviting glimmer of the surface right above. And then the beast rocketed out of the sea. Cool, salty air washed over its body, a sharp contrast to the water's embrace. The sensation was like needles against its feathers, but still…there was something almost freeing about being able to beat its wings through the currents of wind and take gulps of sweet air that burned its unused lungs yet felt so good.
It was so wildly different than the deep, but somehow felt just as right. Flying was, indeed, one of the simplest joys in this world. The creature effortlessly sailed through the skies, its wings stealing bits of silvery cloud from all around to shield it from the view of any onlookers, had there been any. One could never be too careful, especially when legendary.
The legends shall reawaken on the eve of the fourth millennium after the war. And from there shall dawn the new era, with the schism rekindled and the fires of war ignited, only to be smothered by a wave of revolution.
It was a strange thought, knowing that the balance of the world soon unravel again. Less than seven years remained. The initiation had begun years ago, but now…now the search would be set into motion. It seemed like such an unusual course of action, but the legendary creature knew that it could not be helped, as it was the only way. Eight humans, eight members of the Order…was it even possible? Lugia gazed down over the mainland, its mind filled with vague feelings. For now, at least, events would have to run their course…
A loud ringing filled the air, which meant the end of class for the day—and it was about time, too. I quickly stuffed my books into my backpack, following after my classmates and pretending I hadn't heard the last-minute assignment that we'd been given. It would have been just as normal as any other afternoon, except my head was still filled with rumors from earlier that morning.
I glanced down the other end of the hallway just in time to spot my friend Ajia, a small fifth-grader with dark hair and eyes. Well, that was good—at least I'd get to talk to someone before the end of the day.
"Hey Ajia!" I called out, waving to her from the crowd of my fourth-grade classmates before quickly making my way over to where she was standing.
"Heya, how was class?" she asked.
"Meh…failed a Pokéspeech quiz—you know, as always," I replied with a smirk.
Ajia laughed. "Yeah, that class is confusing doom when you first start out. It gets better later on, though," she said.
"Yeah…" I replied, my mind wandering back to what had been bothering me most of the day. "So, uh…have you seen Starr? I didn't even see her at lunch." I fidgeted a bit—how was I supposed to bring up the topic? "Is it really true, that…?" My words sort of died before the end.
Ajia sighed. "I think she didn't want to talk about it with you 'cause she knew you'd take it the hardest…"
"What? What does that even—ugh, I've got to talk to her before she leaves."
"She's right outside, actually," Ajia pointed out.
I blinked. "Huh? She's not taking the bus home?"
"No, her mom's picking her up. If you hurry, you might catch her."
"Alright. See you on Monday!" I exclaimed, immediately taking off through a pair of double doors behind me.
The bright afternoon light stung my eyes as I raced past the areas where the younger kids would get picked up by their parents. I quickly looked over all of the groups sitting along the ledges by the parking lot…and then spotted a girl dressed in a purple shirt and jean skirt sitting by herself off to the side. My footsteps slowed, and I hesitated a bit before walking up to her.
"Hey, Jade," Starr mumbled, looking up slightly when she saw me. She was leaning forward so that her short brown hair fell across her face—probably trying to keep from looking me in the eye.
I sat down next to her, but didn't say anything at first. She had only hinted at what was going on, and I had no idea what I was supposed to think. "So…this is really your last day at school here?" I finally said.
Starr slowly nodded, not really looking up.
"Where're you moving to?" I asked cautiously. She obviously didn't want to talk about it…and I almost didn't want to know.
Her voice was blank as she replied, "Cianwood." I didn't even know where that was supposed to be.
Everything felt silent after that. It was like nothing around us even existed. I couldn't get my thoughts straight—all of this had come up too fast. I couldn't figure any of it out.
"It's not fair!" I suddenly exclaimed. "You only just moved here a month ago. And moving on your birthday? What's up with that?"
"I don't know…it's all my mom's idea, and she didn't tell me anything. But my dad's staying here in Viridian," Starr said gloomily.
I folded my arms. "Huh. You never really saw your dad very often before…did you?"
She shook her head.
"Still…it's stupid that your mom won't tell you why all of this is happening," I added.
"Yeah…she keeps saying that she wants me and my brother to have a better life that we couldn't have gotten here, or something like that…she never really explains," Starr mumbled.
"Hey, that's right, what does your brother think about all of this? Isn't he friends with Ajia?"
Starr sighed. "I don't know, Lexx has been acting weird and not talking to me much lately," she said with a bit of a scowl.
Neither of us said anything else for a while. I stared at the floor as the time went on, feeling sort of lost. Wanting to make the conversation more enjoyable without totally changing the subject, I asked, "So…since you'll be in Johto when you get your trainer's license, which of the starter Pokémon are you gonna choose?"
"Probably Totodile. You know how much I like water Pokémon," she said, smiling for once.
"Cool. It's too bad I won't turn twelve for almost three more years. Then I could start a Pokémon journey and—" I realized it instantly. "Hey, wait! If you're gonna be a Pokémon Trainer, that means you can travel anywhere you want, right? So then you can come visit way before I become a trainer!"
She paused, looking surprised. "I hadn't thought of that. It'll have to be in a while when I get strong Pokémon to protect me while traveling so far, but I will."
My face fell. I had been expecting her to be more excited about it. Instead, Starr just stared downward, like she was lost in thought. She looked like she wanted to tell me something else, but didn't say anything more.
We sat there for some time. It was probably only a few minutes, but it seemed like forever. And then Starr glanced up suddenly at a blue car that had just parked along the curb. She stared at it for a few seconds, then stood to her feet and threw her backpack over her shoulder before walking towards the car, her feet dragging a bit. She had only taken a few steps when she paused suddenly and turned back towards me one last time.
Just hearing that one word made me feel weirdly numb. I forced a smile—it felt fake, and I could tell from her face that she wasn't fooled by it.
I didn't watch as she got in the car.
~End Prologue~
And with that, the stage is set for things to come. The first half of the Prologue is mostly comprised of hints towards future events, but don't worry—the plot kick-starts itself right away in Chapter 1. Please comment to let me know what you think!

What is every body using for speed controls in there subs? I have a used OTW WTC for the OTW TYPE XXIII and it has a Msonik sub 10 in it that does not work and I need to replace it. Is it a good speed controller? It has built in BEC with it. I have been out of the sub building for some years and am getting back into it again and need to get up to speed with the new stuff out there. I used VANTEC RET 44 not water proof and no BEC, that's how long ago I was building subs.

This is G, as seen last week, at five days old:
This was newborn L (December 2007):
And this was newborn E, in the photo that started it all (February 2006):
And this is why I need to blog. Because memory is fallible and L is really ten days old in her picture, and E is really nine.
So I could restage G's shot. He's twelve days old now. But catch-as-catch-can seems to be more emblematic of our three-kid circus. He's the wrong age, and open-eyed. And cute as can be.
The photo stays.

NEW from Redbox: Unlimited Streaming Video + 4 DVDs Only $8 per Month
Tweet |
Looks like Netflix & Amazon on Demand have a bit of competition! Redbox has unleashed its own unlimited streaming video for only $8 per month, plus you get 4 DVDs. Well played, Redbox. Sounds pretty good to me.
You can sign up now (they're still in beta testing) and when it's ready, you'll get a 1 month trial which you can cancel at anytime. I'm thinking it's worth a try, especially if it's free for the first month. Currently, our family uses Netflix but who knows? This could be better. Check it out!

Two-seater Hummel helicopter concept folds-up for easy storage
Article Summary
Looking something like a cross between the SoloTrek XFV backpack helicopter flown in the movie Agent Cody Banks and the Boeing V-22 Osprey tilt-rotor, the Hummel is a two passenger lightweight helicopter concept that features a fully enclosed cabin and tandem ducted rotors which offer the same stability as a conventional helicopter with a tail rotor. The extra twist - when you're done flying it folds into a box shape for easy storage and transportation.

10th Anniversary Party
Hello one and all - Tom and I find it hard to believe but this fall the business is 10 years old! To mark the occasion we are throwing a small bash here at the warehouse. Nothing fancy - we will have some coffees brewed up and home brewed beer, maybe some special give-aways (like t-shirts or coffee), folks can try their hand at the South American coin tossing game called "sapo", and just to make sure that folks who wish to embarrass themselves have a chance to - a karaoke machine!
Where: our warehouse located at 1115 21st Street, Oakland CA 94607
When: Friday October 26th, from 3pm to 6pm (or whenever we pull the plug on the karaoke machine) If you think you will stop in, please let us know so we can plan ahead. Please reply to firstname.lastname@example.com - Maria & Tom

Here is my last one for today. I hope I got nailed.
Thank you!
That looks fine, if not actually perfect. You should waste no more time and start taking some real panoramas. Any stitching errors that you get will not be due to the setup of your panohead.
Adamo, there is no offset for nadir Adaptor on NN5.
Offset on NN3 is 6mm, not 3.
to me, as for john, it looks quite good for lower rail setting. What is your URS you used?
There is always the need to place some manual CP to the "outer circles of the fisheye lenses" and to set them along the verticals and horizontals. When you have got a very good result, save this as a template. This will reduce the amount of placing CP manually. But when I remember right you normally are working with Autopano?
I will reload my pics of D300s Samyang 8mm with orange laser placed dots in horizontal and vertical to set up a template.
There is no need to get rid of the "hexagon outline", the reference for the LRS is the round circle of the panohead. Or do I misunderstand you?
My LRS is 59.5-60 and URS is 97.
I thought, looking at Smooth method pictures that there should not be any hexagon outline, so I wanted to move back URS to 98-99 and eliminate this hexagon. Also, looking closely the very bottom of tripod legs are kind of mangled out of shape.
I want to see your laser method to find NPP. Please, post it so I can downloaded it.
Have to say that I'm learning a lot from you and John.
Thank you!
Do you feel better?
There's nothing wrong with the tripod legs.
From the stitch of your 6 images, the upper rail setting looks to be good, in so far as there is no parallax shift visible between shots. However, there is nothing really close to the camera in any of the overlaps to properly assess this. You should take some shots specifically to check for parallax in order to validate the URS (or maybe check with live view).
John and Heinz,
To get some close objects I tried grid method. The result is not bad, but not perfect. I can see some misalignment next to center button to the left of it.
Also, I uploaded images from the grid method. I wonder, if this misalignment can be fixed in PTGui. Would you be kind to send me PTS and your stitch, if you decide to try it.
I can't thank you enough for all your help. Now my panoramas start to look as they should.
Here is the link to images:
I also stitched it in Autopano with better result. I think. Here:
Now, if you can point me where I can learn to do nadir stitch correctly.
Thank you!
Perfection is not to be expected, given that the entrance pupil for a fisheye lens is not located at a single, fixed position. Because the entrance pupil moves about for rays entering the lens at different angles, parallax cannot be completely eliminated over the whole of the image overlaps. Compromises have to be made. Evidence of parallax errors may or may not be visible in a stitched image, since blending will often disguise stitching errors so that they are not noticeable. Smartblend is particularly good at hiding errors, and is an option that's available in both Autopano Pro and PTGui.
To judge the alignment of images, it is best to output the stitched image as a psd layered file. You can then readily see misalignments over whole of an overlap region between two image layers in Photoshop by switching the upper image off and on. The line where the seam will be placed by the blender is the main region of interest, as that is where any misalignments are most likely to be visible. This is generally half way across the overlap.
In taking shots for checking parallax, you should shoot with the same angular increments that will be used for your actual panorama shoots. In your case you are taking 6 shots around, incrementing yaw by 60 degrees. So take your shots of the grid at 60 degree increments, not 30 degrees as you have done. Obviously, you can omit the central image of three so that you then have two taken at the required 60 degrees.
Your setup looks to be adequate for most purposes, so I suggest you try taking some real panoramas.
Thank you for your insightfull reply, as always.
I just followed instruction doing drid method. Don't know any better yet.
You didn't mention where can I get some info how to shoot and stitch nadir.
Thank you!
There are many ways of shooting and stitching nadir shots. To shoot the nadir in good light, all you need do is shift the tripod out of the way and hand hold the camera at roughly the original mounted position, pointing down at the ground. Take care to position yourself so that you capture areas that originally contained shadows of tripod legs etc. To minimize the size of the nadir hole to be filled, you can tilt the camera down for the horizontal shots by 10 degrees, say. This will enlarge the zenith hole, of course. Alternatively, you can shoot two nadir shots with the camera still on the panohead, rotating the head through 90 degrees between them. These two shots can be stitched along with the horizontal shots to give the smallest area to patch in the best quality.
In low light conditions and when shooting bracketed shots for HDR processing, shooting with a hand held camera is not very practical, because of camera shake and alignment problems. Methods of dealing with these are described at:
http://tinyurl.com/2we8hwq (Nodal Ninja nadir adapter)
Stitching a nadir shot presents problems because it's difficult to maintain the position of the entrance pupil exactly when shooting, so you get parallax problems and changes of perspective. PTGui can cope with this very well when the nadir area is a flat floor by using the viewpoint correction feature in the Pro version. There's a tutorial describing this process on the PTGui web site, and I have one at:
Otherwise, you can manually align and blend in a nadir shot by extracting a rectilinear view of the nadir area from the stitched equirectangular panorama image, patching over the nadir hole, and then returning the edited nadir view to the equirecangular image. There are many ways of doing this, e.g:
Convert the equirectangular image to 6 cubic tiles (e.g. with Pano2VR, Pano2QTVR, PTGui), edit the nadir tile, rebuild the equirectangular image.
Use the patch facility in Pano2VR
PTEditor from the Panorama Tools package
Super Cubic plugin by Rune Spaans: http://www.superrune.com/technical/s...eretocubic.php
PanoTools Wiki tutorials: http://wiki.panotools.org/Zenith_and...iting_overview
When using the cubic tiles methods, you need a defished nadir shot to patch in manually. You can use PTGui to do the defishing by including the nadir shot in the full panorama project. Align it as best you can with the optimizer (with all the image and lens parameters unchecked for the other images). Then output two equirectangular stitches: one containing only the nadir shot and one containing all the other images. You can then convert these to cubic tiles and merge the corresponding nadir tiles.
Thank you!
I'll review all referenced material you kindly provided.
Do you think that nadir adapter is something I should consider?
BTW, I prefer shooting panoramas that can be printed vs. VR format At least for now.
Since NN5 is discontinued I may not be able to buy it later.
Where can I see tutorial about CP placement for good stitch?

I'm wondering who are some of the most difficult/challenging but rewarding fantasy authors you've read? I ask this because I've just ordered a bunch of Gene Wolfe books (Wizard Knight and Book of the New Sun). It may be a while before I get around to reading them, but everything I've heard leads me to believe that reading Wolfe will be a challenge. This could be good, however, as I've lost interest in a lot of fantasy over the last few years and rarely enjoy any new authors. For me, the most challenging/difficult but ultimately rewarding authors I've read are probably as follows: Stephen R. Donaldson (Blew my mind when I was 19, after having mostly read Eddings & Goodkind). Mervyn Peake (Some of the best prose I've read. Highly descriptive, vivid imagery). Patricia McKillip (Riddlemaster was one of the most bizarre books I've read. Still not sure I understand what the heck happened). I can't say any of them were my favourites, but they were all enjoyable in their own way.
Steven Erikson's Malazan Book of the Fallen series is generally considered a more challenging read. I've read the first few so far and quite enjoy them.
China Mieville for me. I have started various books a few times but his writing style and my brain do not get along.
Yes, Eriskon is definitely challenging! But in a different way. I don't find his prose difficult, just incredibly confusing. China Mieville is also sitting on my bookshelf waiting to be read. One day, perhaps.
i'd go with peake. i never finished groan. not for lack of wanting to, but it's just so descriptive it gets almost claustrophobic. i haven't read anyone else i think the same way about, though. having said that, i found peter hamilton's scifi epics hard to read during lunch breaks. because you just can't keep track of who is who or what is going on when you're reading it in bits.
The Wars of Light and Shadow by Wurts has a reputation as being difficult. The language is very descriptive, but dense at the same time. The description isn't just filler; there is a reason for nearly everything she writes. I don't believe all of Wurts' works are like this. I recall reading somewhere that the style was intentionally chosen for this series. McKillip's work, that which I've read at any rate, is interesting to me in that it doesn't have to be difficult. For the most part you can read her work, not carelessly, but at a shallower level and still enjoy it. The deeper you go and more carefully you read it, however, the more you are rewarded. You get what you give with McKillip.
Peake did take some effort to get into, but I'm glad I stuck with it. Wolfe, however, I found very digestible from the get go.
Wolfe fits this category for me. I loved Book of the New Sun but I'm not sure I "got" everything he was telling me, the "deeper meaning". Even when you know someone is an unreliable narrator, that doesn't always help. Same with Margaret Atwood. I must not have understood Oryx and Crake. I was just bored and waiting for something to happen. ETA: How about Cloud Atlas by David Mitchell? Challenging and incredibly entertaining, even if you have trouble putting it all together.
It seems Erikson is one of the more challenging epic fantasy writers because so many people can't seem to spell his name correctly on the various forums I visit More seriously, the Malazan books do require more concentration on the part of the readers for the "full story" to be seen. They are one of the rare epic fantasies that I've re-read and gained more from doing so, as there is much more to them than the plot elements. But there are other challenging writers. Javier Marías, while not exactly a fantasy writers, certainly writes in a style that challenges his readers to pay attention to the little details. Micheal Cisco is another whose prose is beautiful, but who also demands more from readers. Michal Ajvaz might be a third, but I need more than two novels and a short story to be certain.
I've read pretty much every book that posters throughout the years have mentioned to be considered "dense" or difficult to read. I've enjoyed the lot of them to no ends.... Wolfe and Mieville among my favorite authors.. but I couldnt get into to Peake at all.. I tried. I dont quit books but after 100+ pages it was just boring and I knew nothing was going to change. Nothing was really happening and it got to the point when I turned the page I would bet money the author was going to still be describing the samething he was describing two pages ago... I physically hurt myself reading just that small amount.. and if I turn around now I will see that massive tomb sitting underneath my lamp table... just haunting me.
There are books that are challenging because they are badly written - they require you to do work that you shouldn't have to. There are books that are challenging because they present difficult intellectual themes that stand between you and any story on offer. These aren't badly written so much as they're written with an erudite and educated reader in mind. And there are ideal books that contain challenges (both intellectual and emotional) but these flow through the narrative at a deeper level and allow less perceptive readers to enjoy a story without being required to engage the central themes, but are always accessible to those with the eyes to see them. Genre writing often packages its 'cleverness' in neat boxes and has the lead character monologue them to you. Literary fiction often delivers those insights with a less heavy hand. These are of course generalisations but it's depressing to see some pundits laud the former as 'deep' and miss entirely the brilliance of the latter.
I picked up Wolfe's Shadow of the Torturer when I was about 14 and read it as a (slightly dreamy) fantasy adventure, and was completely transported. Not difficult at all, and can be read on several levels. Some of his later stuff is a bit harder. I read Peake at around the same time and absolutely loved it. I was bought a boxed set of Thomas Covenant shortly afterwards. Read them, found them uneccesarily turgid and verbose, and as a result irritating. Have never bothered to reread, unlike Wolfe and Peake whom I have returned to countless times. It is interesting how one's mileage varies.
I agree that McKillip can be considered difficult. She can use some intricate grammar and phrasing. Another author who's in that same vein is Ursula K. LeGuin or even C.J. Cherryh. The former mainly because of her themes, and the latter, because of the same reason as McKillip. I love all three, though.
From Lists 'R' Us Central: Not all works by each author are "difficult" or "challenging" (using a a threshhold some of the authors cited by the OP), but each has at least some that are, and, for many, all or most of their work is. And for each, there is work of reward and merit ranging from good to superlative. Ackroyd, Peter Adams, Richard Aickman, Robert Ajvaz, Michal Amis, Kingsley Amis, Martin Attanasio, A. A.

Wright, Austin Tappan That ought to be enough to be going along with.
Life During Wartime by Lucius Shepard. I gave up on that one. I'm kinda glad I'm not the only one who finds Mieville challenging. To be fair, I loved Un Lun Dun, but the other two books by him I've read (Perdito Street Station & The Scar), I really struggled with. It was a case of gritting my teeth and reading a few pages at a time; not something I usually do (if I book hasn't hooked me by the time I'm halfway through, then too bad), but he's so highly regarded, I wanted to see what the fuss was all about. And I can see it, for sure, but still...I didn't enjoy the experience. I recently read A Fire Upon the Deep (by Vernor Vinge), and found it very hard going at first (didn't enjoy the writing much) ...but I kept reading, and the story and the characters pulled me in, and overall I did enjoy the book. Sometimes, it's definitely worth hanging in there. (OK, OK, it's not a fantasy book, I apologize if it matters.) @ evil agent - It's a while since I've reread Wolfe, but I remember him as an absolutely superb writer who can really pull you in. Having said that, I did borrow The Wizard Knight from the library (twice) and both times, I didn't manage to get past the first 10 pages or so; but I always assumed that's because it's a sequel to an earlier book (The Knight?), which I haven't read (don't quote me on that, it might not be....) The Book of the New Sun series is a masterpiece, yes it might be a bit hard to get into at first, but it's very immersive and well worth the read.
Robert Holdstock is an author I consider challenging. I read his novel Celtika years ago and found that it reminded me of Gene Wolfe with it's weird, wandering plot and the way it had so many mythic themes layered throughout it. Michael Swankick is also very challenging. Iron Dragon's Daughter was just so weird and trippy that I wouldn't even know where to begin if I wanted to analyze it.

I love my toaster sliders and polarized lens. Currently have what I believe to be the brown or copper polarized lens. I need to replaced them because of years of use. Any suggestions on which polarized lens to go with for everyday use, gray/brown?

Everyday go with brown.
Snow, water and other harsh light conditions go gray
I love my smith toasters and the polarized lenses are great especially for water sports and backpacking across streams. I can see through the glare and avoid the unwanted swim. As usual with Backcountry the price was right too!

Ukiah Daily Journal
The county of Mendocino's efforts to fight a subpoena from a federal grand jury demanding medical marijuana records the county keeps have already cost the county more than its self-imposed limit, and may cost more, depending on the outcome of a February hearing, according to County Counsel Tom Parker.
Parker, who leads the county's legal department, earlier this week submitted to the county Auditor's Office an invoice for $12,427 from Sacramento attorney William Osterhaudt for his legal services. The Mendocino County Board of Supervisors hired Osterhaudt in December to address the subpoena alongside Parker.
The county's contract with Osterhaudt, signed Dec. 9, specifies his $300 hourly rate and $225 per hour for "associate attorneys" who will aid Osterhaudt in filing with the U.S. District Court "appropriate motions to quash, narrow or modify the subpoenas so as to protect the confidentiality and independence of County officials properly adopting and administering the medical marijuana program in accordance with valid California State law, and the confidentiality of individual medical records as required by that law," according to the contract.
The contract also states that while it couldn't be predicted how much Osterhaudt's representation would cost, he would "endeavor to limit the total fees payable by the County to under $12,000."
Parker said he is authorized as a county department head to sign a contract for up to $25,000, so the amount over and above the limit in Osterhaudt's contract didn't need to go before the Board of Supervisors.
The county is due in federal court in San Francisco Feb. 19 for a hearing on its motion to quash the subpoena. In the event that the county decides to appeal the federal court's ruling, Parker said, the Board of Supervisors would address separately the question of further legal expenses.
The federal subpoena arrived Oct. 23 from the U.S. Attorney's Northern District Office. Copies were delivered to Auditor-Controller Meredith Ford, Sheriff Tom Allman, Sheriff's Office Financial Manager Norman Thurston, Sheriff's Capt. Randy Johnson -- who oversaw the county's medical marijuana garden inspection program -- and the custodian of records for the Sheriff's Office.
The subpoena demanded "any and all records" -- including financial records -- for the county's medical marijuana cultivation ordinance, codified as Chapter 9.31 of the Mendocino County Code, from Jan. 1, 2010 to the present. The subpoena covered all types of communication regarding 9.31, including with third-party medical marijuana garden inspectors and the Mendocino County Board of Supervisors.
The county's motion to quash calls the subpoena "burdensome and oppressive," and overbroad, saying it would hinder the county's ability to comply with state law requiring medical marijuana programs.
"Compliance with the subpoena in its present form would violate the County's statutory duty of confidentiality with respect to persons who submitted medical information in confidence, subjecting County officials to possible civil and criminal sanctions under applicable State law," the motion says.
"By demanding production of all' records of communications by officials administering the program, the subpoena violates the privilege of these officers to conduct their lawful deliberations concerning governmental policy matters in confidence. Compliance would, in some instances, violate the attorney-client privilege and the work product privilege of attorneys who gave advice and counsel in the establishment and maintenance of the program."
The motion also calls "facially overbroad" the federal grand jury's demand for "confidential and sensitive material which appears irrelevant to any valid existing criminal grand jury investigation." The motion continues, "This relevancy concern is exacerbated by the government's refusal to tell counsel for the County what it is investigating and who, if anyone, it has in its prosecutorial sights."
The motion also says the subpoena "implicates the Tenth Amendment to the United States constitution by threatening to commandeer the law-making function of State officials," and "chills First Amendment conduct and implicates that physician-patient privilege by requiring the production of healthcare records of individuals submitted pursuant to the County's State-mandated medical marijuana program."
Further, the motion states that under Senate Bill 420, the Medical Marijuana Program Act -- a supplement and clarification to Proposition 215, the Compassionate Use Act -- "all California counties are required by law to provide the program within their jurisdictions."

My MIL gave the Elf to us the year, and the kids latched on immediately to "Fredder". My only problem is remembering to move him at night. The kids were starting to worry when he didn't fly for three nights in a row! (I told them it was because they weren't sleeping in long enough, and he was a afraid he wouldn't get back from the north pole in time). :-)
ReplyDeleteChazz Star! LOVE it! Who came up with that name? My cousin is very good friends with the author. My mother had my cousin get the booked signed for us by the author. Currently "Kevin" is hiding in our Christmas tree. I think that is the best hiding spot he has been in so far! I'll let you know if Sydney finds him!
ReplyDeleteOur elf showed up last year. It took me several hours to remember where I put him when I wanted to get him out Thanksgiving night. The kids have so much fun looking for him...and I love that the book tells them they can't touch him. (Although I wonder what happens if he falls or gets bumped from his perch? I worry about these things!)
It's funny because I have a post scheduled next week for the Midwest Parents blog about our elf!Awww-loved Gray's comment!
Hey-we have a fun little thing we do with a snowman here at our house. He's actually a tiny little ornament-only an inch or two high. He moves around the house (banned from the bedrooms 'cause we'd NEVER find him again) because we all take turns "hiding" him. Upon being found, that person gets to hide him again for someone else to find and so on. My kids LOVE this! We have one more rule-he can't go behind anything-he has to be in full view without having to move anything. (You'd be surprised at how hard it is to still try and find him sometimes!) It's just a thought to incorporate one more fun tradition at your house. Have fun!

NEWPORT, N.C. (AP) -- Carteret County deputies say a man who fired several shots into a pickup truck after he was beaten in a road rage incident has turned himself in, along with his wife, who gave him the gun.
Investigators say 40-year-old Bradley Turner and his 30-year-old wife, Christy, were taken into custody by deputies near their home in Lenoir County. Both face charges of assault by pointing a gun. It wasn't known if they had a lawyer.
The incident happened around 1 p.m. Sunday just off U.S. 70 in Newport.
Deputies say Turner followed a pickup driver home, then punched him after asking why he ran him off the road. The pickup driver and his passenger began beating up Turner, throwing him to the ground.
Turner's wife gave him a pistol, and Turner fired several shots, hitting the truck and a nearby home.
Deputies say no one was wounded.

Another new New England brewery has launched. Foolproof Brewing Company announced today that their beers are now available on draft throughout Rhode Island.
I haven�t had a chance to try their beers, but I do know brewer Damase Olsson. He is the former brewer of the Pennichuck Brewing Company in New Hampshire, and I loved the beers he did there. That gives me confidence that Foolproof�s beers will be excellent.
Here are all the details about the brewery:
Foolproof, Rhode Island�s newest craft brewery, launches
PAWTUCKET, Rhode Island, Jan. 3, 2013 � Foolproof Brewing Company (formerly High Jinx Brewing Company) announced its beers are now available in bars across Rhode Island. The brewery, which pairs high-quality, hand-crafted beers with a variety of life experiences, is the latest addition to New England�s craft brewing scene.
�We are thrilled to introduce our unique and flavorful brews to beer lovers across Rhode Island,� said Foolproof�s president and founder Nick Garrison. �At Foolproof, we craft each of our brews with a sacred beer drinking experience in mind.�
The brewery produces three year-round beers, each designed with a particular experience or activity in mind. Foolproof�s initial year-round offerings include �Barstool,� an American golden ale dedicated to a night out at the bar; �Raincloud,� a robust porter for rainy days; and �Backyahd,� an IPA for barbecuing and other outdoor activities. The company also produces a limited line of high-end specialty beers, which rotate throughout the year.
Joining Garrison�s team are Foolproof�s brewmaster, Damase Olsson, formerly of Pennichuck Brewing Company and a graduate of the World Brewing Academy, as well as sales manager Kyle Pauly, formerly of Berkshire Brewing Company and Ithaca Beer Company.
Foolproof Brewing Company�s beers are now available in select bars across Rhode Island, and the brewery will introduce 12 oz. cans to the market before the end of the month. The company is distributing its beers throughout Rhode Island, working with C&C Distributors. The brewery plans to expand into Massachusetts and Connecticut and other markets throughout New England, eventually growing to a national level.
Starting Friday, Jan. 4, Foolproof will offer six one-hour tours per week of its brewery, located at 241 Grotto Avenue in Pawtucket. Tours are held Fridays at 4:00 and 5:00 p.m. and Saturdays at 12:00, 1:00, 2:00, and 3:00 p.m. For $10, patrons receive a tour of the brewery, an overview of beer and the brewing process, a sampling of Foolproof�s beers, and a glass to take home with them.
About Foolproof Brewing Company
Foolproof Brewing Company (www.foolproofbrewing.com) in Pawtucket, Rhode Island, produces high-quality, hand-crafted beers designed with specific experiences in mind. Whether it be watching a baseball game, sitting at home on a rainy day, or just catching up with friends at the local pub, Foolproof�s goal is to create unique and fulfilling beer experiences.

Many of Europe's refineries were built decades ago to produce gasoline, the main fuel at the time. Diesel demand has since surged and some plants can't adapt, creating a gasoline glut.

Engineers and designers are highly skilled individuals. Forcing them to enter design changes using tables, forms and spreadsheets is unproductive and uneconomical, and it increases the likelihood of human error—this is the way that most instrumentation software systems currently work. For too long, software vendors have denied engineers and designers the simple practicality of a graphical visual engineering interface with "drag and drop" capability and inbuilt intelligence, ensuring changes are automatically replicated into all the associated data and databases.

Designed to fit over the ends of Kelty trekking poles and other comparable manufacturer's poles, Kelty Rubber Trekking Pole Tips allow you to use your trekking poles for a variety of activities.
Kelty has been a leader in the backpacking equipment industry for more than 50 years. In 1952, Dick Kelty began building backpacks for his friends in the Sierra Club. His ideas of using hipbelts and lightweight aluminum frames allowed Kelty and his friends to carry heavy loads longer, farther and with less pain for a happier wilderness experience. Today, Kelty continues to innovate.

The game Wednesday is in Stillwater, OK, and if memory serves--Iowa State hasn't won there since the late 80's!! Unfortunately, I think that streak continues. Oklahoma State looked somewhat sluggish during the first half in their contest against West Virginia. But, during the second half poured it on and damn near beat the Mountaineers by 20. Granted, I have not seen Oklahoma State play a great deal, but when I have they looked good! Iowa State is going to play like they did against Kansas in Lawrence if they want to have any chance at beating the Cowboys in Stillwater folks... Iowa State 62 Oklahoma State 74

Unfortunately, I don't see any reason why the streak won't continue, they play great at home and have a good crowd. I'm not going to say "this is the year". Hope that isn't the case though.
If we can score like we did in the second half, we win. I wouldn't bet on this one though. My heart says yes, my head says no.
If they can clean up free throws and score like they did against K State, I think they can pull out a win. I didn't think they would beat K State, and they did without playing their best game. Still though, this isn't the game for Iowa State to figure out how to get a quality road win. OSU by 4.
The two teams seem to be pretty evenly matched in almost all categories when it comes to conference play. I think it will come down to 3 point shooting and rebounding (doesn't it always with ISU?). However, I think this team can come out and play well......they seem to play better on the road the better the competition is, so....let's hope. Close game. ISU 74 Okie St. 71 (This time ISU fouls when Okie St. has the ball at the end, but OSU misses the free throws)
-Be kind. That is something you will never regret. You will never say to yourself when you are old "I wish I was not good to that person".
The thing I hate about watching a televised game at Gallager Iba arena is that the camera angle is so far away it makes it frustrating to watch the game! Is anybody else in agreement with me on this?

We can't beat them there when we are good and they suck. So I have to go with okie state out of pure numbers
Nobody but HB knows for sure. You pretty much know nothing....like Knownothing would like to say. Word
I predict and ISU lose.

You can take the same idea and say that we're due for a win because of all those losses. Neither one is really relevant. I'm not sure what happens Wednesday. I like to think that our guys will play to the level of their competition, then rise up a little more for the win. That's just hope on my part. I've got nothing else to go on for this game.
Kansas Must Be Destroyed Sic Semper Jayhawks http://rememberingdoria.wordpress.com/
I really think this one is going to be closer than my K-State prediction so I will go with ISU 600 OSU 12
Road game in the B12 means we have to bring our complete A game. Can they - yes. Will they - I'm leaving it at I hope so
ISU will be ready for this one. Our boys won't lay an egg, but getting a win will be very difficult. Expect the game to be decided in the final 2 minutes. Could go either way.
The streak continues OSU 78 ISU 64
78-Iowa State 77- Oklahoma State No more Keiton Page, no problem....
Lose and lose BIG and fans go all twitter...again
