NORFOLK -- A convicted child rapist from Colorado was taken into custody in Norfolk Friday.
A felony warrant was issued for 51-year-old Eric Hartwell after he cut his GPS ankle bracelet and walked out of a Denver halfway house a week ago, authorities said.
Deputies were able to track Hartwell from a bus station to a motel on N. Military Highway in Norfolk, according to the U.S. Marshals service.
Witnesses tell 13News Now authorities had part of the Motel 6 parking lot blocked off around 11 am Friday, where US Marshals stormed Hartwell's room.
When Hartwell refused to open the door at the motel, authorities broke it down and after a brief struggle took him into custody, according to a press release.
'We have been relentlessly pursuing Hartwell, day and night, as he fled across the country,' said Chief Deputy Kenneth Deal. 'When a dangerous predator is on the loose we don't stop. Public safety is always our main concern.'
Hartwell had been living in Denver since December, but Hartwell's criminal history goes back much further.
Hartwell has been arrested and released a handful of times since the early 90s and has shown he won't hesitate to run again. Investigators had described Hartwell as a sexual predator, with a violent history and a track record of running.
In 1991, he was convicted of raping a child in Washington state. He picked up a pregnant hitchhiker there in 1995. The victim got away but said Hartwell tried to rape her.
'This is a guy who has a pretty dangerous past who's out there,' said Psychologist Dr. Max Wachtel.
Wachtel says a person's past actions can sometimes help predict their next moves. Hartwell has shown little sign of leaving his past crimes behind.
'Those are the patterns or the behaviors of somebody who probably isn't feeling or showing a whole lot of remorse,' he said.
Hartwell had multiple convictions for molesting a six-year-old in Washington State, attempted rape of a 15-year-old in 1995 and numerous other convictions for failing to register as a sex offender.
Marshals say Hartwell has failed to register as a sex offender multiple times between 2007 and 2009. He disappeared from a halfway house near Seattle in 2009 and made it to Texas before being picked up again.
'There's a very good chance he's gone, he's in another state now,' Wachtel said. 'He doesn't stick around, and is maybe smart enough to know, he'd get busted if he sticks around.'
After serving 60 months in federal prison, Hartwell failed to register again in 2011, in Clear Creek County, Colorado. He went back to jail. He was paroled last December, under supervised release and was living in Denver until he disappeared.
Eric Hartwell appeared in Norfolk Federal Court Friday afternoon. He agreed to be extradited to Texas, which is where a judge had assigned him to the halfway house facility in Colorado that he escaped from on Sunday.
He will be sent to a holding facility in Norfolk until he is transferred to Texas.

Governor Cuomo announces new partnership to provide equipment, training for law enforcement to assist in missing child searches
Governor Andrew M. Cuomo has announced a partnership between New York State and Project Lifesaver International to provide life-saving equipment and training for 50 law enforcement agencies to assist in missing child searches.
The state will provide agencies with nearly 600 Project Lifesaver tracking devices at no cost for use on children under 18 who may have autism, Down syndrome or another type of cognitive impairment that puts them at risk for wandering or becoming lost. The transmitters, which are worn on the wrist or ankle, emit a tracking signal that allows a child to be located quickly after going missing.
New York State Marks Crime Victims' Rights Week, April 19-25
Governor Cuomo has proclaimed April 19-25 Crime Victims' Rights Week in New York State. These year's theme is "Engaging Communities/Empowering Victims", and the state Office of Victim Services is doing just that.
OVS is rolling out a new Victim Service Portal across the state which will allow victim assistance providers and eventually victims themselves to fill out claim applications online and submit them instead of filling out paper claim forms and mailing them in. The Portal will make the process quicker and more efficient not only for victims but for the staff that processes claims, meaning that innocent victims of crime will be able to receive the compensation they need sooner than before.

Missing Children's Day Poster designed by Oneida County fifth-grader wins New York State contest
A poster designed by a fifth-grader from the Sauquoit Valley Middle School in Oneida County will be New York State's entry in the National Missing Children's Day Poster Contest that is being sponsored next month by the U.S. Department of Justice.
Designed by 10-year-old Alena Weibel, the poster was one of approximately 40 entered in a contest coordinated by the New York State Missing Person Clearinghouse at the Division of Criminal Justice Services. Her poster will now compete against those created by her peers across the country in the national competition, which is designed to raise awareness about missing children cases across the country.
The winner of the national contest will be announced next month in Washington, D.C., with the student's poster used to promote National Missing Children's Day 2015. May 25 has been marked annually as Missing Children's Day since 1983.
Scam Alert: Individuals acting as bill collectors claiming to be from Criminal Justice Legal Services/affiliated with DCJS
The Division of Criminal Justice Services (DCJS) has been made aware of telephone scams in which individuals claim to be affiliated with DCJS. People living in Connecticut, Florida, Kentucky, Michigan, Nevada and Ohio have reported receiving such calls. DCJS is in no way affiliated with these individuals and does not collect loans or otherwise seek to obtain or recover payments from people. If you receive such a call, please contact your local law enforcement agency to make them aware of the matter.

New York State launches #CombatHeroin campaign
New York State has launched a multifaceted media campaign to educate the public about heroin and opioid abuse and misuse. The campaign includes a new website – http://combatheroin.ny.gov – that is designed for parents, adults and young people who are seeking help and information about this growing epidemic.
The site includes information about warning signs of heroin and opioid abuse and misuse, access to state Office of Alcoholism and Substance Abuse Services treatment providers, and guidance to help parents talk to their children and health care professionals talk with their patients. It also includes links to four public service announcements and video messages from New Yorkers talking about the impact of heroin and other opioids on their lives.

Respond to Review of Blue Note Cafe
by gr8vegan
Review: It was so cool, when we ate there the FRY's Vegan Delivery truck was parked outside unloading the veggie burgers they use. I had no idea the UK had trucks full of vegan good stuff driving around making deliveries with the big VEGAN SOCIETY logo on the side! What a good omen about what was to follow inside! We ordered the Vegan Burger & Chili Baked Potato. The burger was amazing with some seriously tangy sauces and not very fatty at all. The Chili had a tad bit of oil in it, but I just picked out the beans/tomatoes to avoid the fat and it was all outstanding. They have a really nice outdoor area in back, too!
Posted by thewalrus on Friday, February 22, 2013
Hi! Are you sure that you're vegan burger was vegan and not vegetarian? I'm lactose intolerant and I asked for vegan options without milk/butter/cream and after a long discussion they told me that the only option for me was hummus :-(
Maybe they serves "vegan" potatoes with butter and if you declare that you're allergic they change opinion?

Holmdel, N.J. – October 7, 2014 – Vonage Holdings Corp. (NYSE: VG) today announced that the Company has appointed Alan Masarek as Chief Executive Officer and a member of the Board of Directors, effective November 6, 2014. Mr. Masarek will take part in an orderly leadership transition through his start date. Marc Lefar will retire as CEO and from the Board of Directors effective November 5, 2014.

Following the acquisition, Mr. Masarek became Director, Chrome & Apps for Google.
"Alan is a proven business leader with more than 20 years of C-level experience at technology-centric companies that span corporate, venture and entrepreneurial settings.

Previously, he was President of Advanced Health Corporation where he led the organization from development stage through its growth into a publicly-traded services and IT company. Mr. Masarek earned his M.B.A. from Harvard Business School and his B.B.A. from the University of Georgia.
Commenting on Mr. Lefar's retirement, Mr. Citron said, "On behalf of the Board of Directors, I want to thank Marc for his tremendous work since joining Vonage. He helped chart a new course for the Company, delivering dramatic financial and operational improvements, which allowed the Company to invest for growth while delivering significant value to our shareholders. We are grateful for his leadership over the past six years, and wish him all the best."
"It has been an honor to work with a highly talented team and supportive Board. I am proud of all that we have accomplished together, and I am confident the team will provide Alan with the same effort, passion and dedication to innovation and growth. I wish Alan, the Board and the team continued success," Mr. Lefar said.

John Lenanton is no Grinch, but by the time Christmas is over he jokes that he's ready to destroy every trace of the holiday season's signature flower: the bright red poinsettia.
To be fair, he's grown thousands of them every year for the past 36 years.
Lenanton, a horticulture professor at Orange Coast College, teaches the nursery practice and management course, where students learn about growing plants inside a greenhouse by producing poinsettias for the department's annual fundraiser.
"I grow so many of them and I look after them from September… after Christmas I want to throw them out," Lenanton said. "One of the first things I do in the New Year is to get rid of the poinsettias. And then I put in the order for next year's in January or February, so it's a year-long operation really."
He said the flower is ideal for teaching students because they plant them during the last week of August, at the beginning of the semester, and then they get to harvest and sell them during the last week of classes. The students and Lenanton produce about 5,000 potted plants. Their sale has become popular in the community and they typically sell out every year, bringing in about $25,000 for the horticulture department.
Jan Balazs, 54, is a student in Lenanton's class. She said what she loves most about the poinsettia process is the camaraderie between gardeners.
"There's something about horticulture that draws a really neat group of people," Balazs said. "They want to share what they know and help others."
Students tend to their poinsettias at least once a week in the greenhouse to make sure the plants are growing properly and that no tweaks in their environment are necessary.
Lenanton said the flower can be a bit finicky. For instance, at night they require a temperature of around 62 degrees. Students also have to be careful to not accidentally lean on the plant in the packed green house, for fear of stunting their growth. Most of the flowers grown are red, but some white poinsettias will also be available for sale, in addition to a striped variety called "iced punch."
While Balazs said she has been stunned by her plants' progress and beauty, she too isn't particularly loyal to the poinsettia once the mistletoe is gone.
"I think they're a beautiful plant and I love them for Christmas and when it's over, it's time to move on to a new plant."
Lenanton said that the poinsettia is really only the unofficial Christmas flower in America. In the rest of the world, most florists produce and sell them year-round.
"It's interesting that it's more of a Christmas flower here than anywhere else," he said. "I think it's because it flowers at Christmas time, it's red in color and that's why it's become popular as a Christmas plant."
What: 36th Annual Orange Coast College Poinsettia Sale
When: Friday, Dec. 6, from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m.

Arid Garden
This part of the Texas State Gardens represented the West Texas desert.
Feb 1—I visited the Texas State Gardens this morning, although I thought this was probably not a good time of the year to see it at its best. Also, the wind was blowing furiously, probably gusting to about 40 or 50 miles an hour straight out of the north and very cold. The RV wanted to wander all over the road.
Sure enough, there weren't a lot of flowers blooming at the Gardens. Their kale was absolutely beautiful though. I went through the bromeliad greenhouse. I really don't care a lot for those kinds of plants, but it was out of the wind! There were several tropical birds in cages, all looking cold and scared of the banging noises all around them. Next stop was the orchid greenhouse. A nice, warm 70 degrees and out of the wind, again. There were some gorgeous blooms. I stayed awhile and took lots of pictures. The butterfly garden was empty of many blooms and the butterflies were hiding. The hummingbird garden was the same. I took the bird and butterfly walk which was restful in view and fairly protected from the wind. The rose garden was lovely, but cold. The would be a

beautiful place to visit in a couple of months!
After leaving the gardens, I decided to drive along the coast about halfway to Houston and stop again. I crossed downtown Corpus—the old town—and saw the air craft carrier, Lexington, in the bay. I realized I hadn't really seen the real Corpus at all. Guess I will have to come back. The bridge and causeway across the bay are really spectacular. The rest of the drive was tiring. I had the wheel in a death's grip due to the wind. I finally arrived at the Bayside RV park in Palacios about 5:30 and got a place for the night. What a beautiful park! It is right on the bay, looking out to the gulf on one side and an inlet full of shrimp boats on the other. Too bad the wind and cold keep me from walking around tonight!
Feb. 2—The wind howled all night and rocked the RV constantly. This morning we lost power about 10:00. I started the generator, but with less than a half tank of gas, it smelled badly. Bootsie was all huddled on the couch, looking cold. I said "to heck with it," and
The birds were cold and bothered by the sound of the strong wind at Texas State Gardens.
we both went back to bed. I woke up to deathly quiet. There was no wind. I felt eerie with the lack of sound, but the electricity was back on.
Feb 3: We are staying put in Palacios. The temperatures never have made it above freezing and with rain off and on, there is ice everywhere. I did get out and walk around for a little bit, but the skies are gray and the wind is bitter cold. I took a few pictures then headed back to the warmth of the RV. I spent time reading, doing some writing and, of course, playing games on the computer. Thank goodness I have access to the internet here. The park host told me the weather was unusual for this area, which seldom sees ice.
I found out Palacios was originally called Tres Palacios which is "three palaces" in Spanish. There is a legend that a ship wrecked in the bay, here and the sailors saw an image of three palaces and swam toward them, reaching the shore safely that way. The story is captured in a mural on one of the downtown buildings. Later, I discovered the town was really
Bromeliad House
I liked the dolphin. I'm not sure why it was in the greenhouse with the bromeliads, though
named after the Spanish governor of the area. His name was Trespalacios. I like the legend better!
Feb 4: The temperatures got above freezing today for a little while and the sun was out. The ice started melting. I didn't realize I was parked under some power lines until a big chunk of ice hit the roof. Bootsie and I both jumped! Later more chunks fell, but they weren't as big or as loud as the first one.
Bootsie—Marty has been home for a long time now and hasn't run off and left me behind. We have played a lot and I have given her a lot of loving to show her how happy I am that she is here. I have been cuddling up to her in bed at night, too. It's been cold!! Today noises on top of the RV have been scaring me, so I have been keeping close to Marty and she's been petting me a lot!
Feb 5: I finally thought the roads might be safe to travel again. Even though it has been cold at night, there hasn't been any more rain, so nothing to refreeze. I left Palacios and headed

to Houston and the suburb of LaPorte, where cousin Jimmy and his wife Patsy live. I got there in the late afternoon and had a little trouble finding the house. The address in the Davison family catalog is wrong. Luckily, Jimmy saw me drive by and stood out in the driveway so I could see him when I came back around the circle!
After I got parked in the driveway and all hooked up they took me out to dinner at a restaurant which was right on the water and I ate fresh shrimp in a dish with a French name. (can't remember the name, but it was good.) We sat by a window and watched the tankers and barges go up and down the port waterway. After dinner we had a good visit before heading for bed.
Feb. 6: We went to Sunday School and church then went to Applebees to eat lunch. After visiting a bit more I pulled out to drive on to Dallas. I would have liked to have stayed longer with Jim and Patsy, but heard another weather front was coming in and thought it best to leave. I sure enjoyed getting reacquainted
The kale was beautiful at the Texas State Gardens.
with both Jim and Patsy.
Dallas was foggy and misty and I got there just about dark. I was glad I hadn't waiting any later to leave LaPorte. I was tired when I finally got parked, etc., but I did watch the first half of the Superbowl. It looked like it was a good game, but I couldn't stay up any longer! I'm glad to be back "home"!

Best for Families - Expert review of Selwo Adventure
Meet animals from five continents as they roam this huge park in Estepona.
The whole family will love jumping into a four wheel drive with a guide and exploring the 100 hectare-park which 2,000 animals call 'home'. My highlights include the Ravine of the Bears, Tiger Gorge and Lion Hill. They've really tried to recreate the animals' natural habitats; it may not be perfect, but it's probably better than almost all other safari parks in Europe.
If you go on a clear day you'll see a wonderful view of nearby Gibraltar and the north African coastline from the park's highest point, Africa's Window.
Price advice:
It costs 18 euros for adults and 11 euros for seniors and children up to four-years-old.
Expert tips:
Don't miss the Path of the Hanging Bridges, which gives great views of the park's flora and fauna.
Don't even think about walking during the heat of the summer.

Re: Sailing on a shoestring.
We've been saving furiously for 8 months on two middle class incomes and we should have enough to cruise the Sea of Cortez for a year or so.
We own a house and rental income should cover the mortgage while we're gone.
After much research, we're estimating living on about $1100/month while anchoring out down there.
Small, simple inexpensive boat (28' Pearson Triton) that we paid cash for should help keep costs down.

First ladies' inaugural gowns through the years
As everyone wonders what first lady Michelle Obama will wear to her second Inaugural Ball on Monday, we're taking a look back at the fashion choices of other first ladies throughout history, including inaugural gowns and dresses worn to state dinners and other important events. These photos, from an exhibit at the Smithsonian's National Museum of American History called "The First Ladies," start with Mary Lincoln's purple velvet dress from the 1860s and take us on a style journey all the way to Michelle Obama's 2009 silk chiffon gown that put designer Jason Wu on the map.

A divided Supreme Court ruled Monday that nearly all immigrant children who turn 21 while waiting for their families' visa application to be approved will have to restart the process. The 5-to-4 decision came before the court in Scialabba v. Cuellar de Osorio, a case involving an immigrant from El Salvador, Rosalina Cuellar de Osorio, who applied for a visa along with her then 13-year-old son. Once her son turned 21, he was told that he no longer qualified as an eligible child, resulting in him being placed at the back of the line and waiting several more years for a visa.
The ruling will affect tens of thousands of immigrant children who "age out" of the system every year while waiting for their families' green cards to be approved, according to government estimates. However, this ruling will not affect the thousands of unaccompanied minors traveling across the U.S. – Mexico border.

We all know that's not what you believe, but you jokingly concur with the troll point of view if it suits you. You know that my post calling murray useless what not serious, but you jokingly agree with me so you don't have to retract the statement about Fed's weak draw. Just like you get annoyed with anyone using wind as an excuse for Murray's US Open win, but then jokingly blame wind for his defeat in 2009 IW so that you don't actually have to give a serious opinon about whether wind is or isn't an excuse for losing.
Murray was the tougher draw, Federer got him in his half. You know this is what I mean, but you just avoid the actual point.
And you might remember that Federer was 2 sets to 0 down vs Berdych at the AO 2009. Since and including that match he's played him 3 times at slam, lost 2 and had to come back from 2 sets down in the other.
The last time he had a comfortable slam match vs him was 2007
Actually it was 2008 AO, was a pretty routine win.

text: We had a (quite long) wish list of qualities that we wanted from our holiday villa when we were looking for a rental and this beautiful property was pretty much the stuff of our dreams! We were astonished with the spaciousness of the accommodation - the main three bedrooms in particular were huge, all were ensuite, plus they had large fitted wardrobes and dressing areas. The kitchen was big and absolutely stuffed to the ginnells with cutlery/crockery/glassware etc - no fear of last-minutepanicking to find an elusive corkscrew! There were several eating areas and the decked area around the villa's private, amazing infinity pool was the perfect place to relax. There was also an outside BBQ area, shower and loo, and a huge basement with table tennis and football table (perfect to occupy teenage children). The owners had thoughtfully left maps and visitors guides in the (gorgeous and, again, huge) living/dining area, plus there were games and books a-plenty. The decor was simple and... Plus

In an interesting turn of events, a recent poll shows that Kate Gosselin is no longer the sympathetic darling that she became following the scrutiny over her husband Jon's alleged affair.
RadarOnline.com's exclusive interview with Kate's brother Kevin Kreider and sister-in-law Jodi revealed that Kate didn't write her own 2008 book "Multiple Blessings: Surviving To Thriving with Twins and Sextuplets."
Click here to watch the revealing video.
Seventy five percent of people polled by Popeater said they felt Kate not writing her own book was a big deal. And Popeater also found that 85% of people when asked "where does your allegiance lie" admitted they are on Team Jon!
Kate's brother revealed to RadarOnline.com in an exclusive interview that Kate told Jon months ago the marriage is over. Kevin also said that far from writing her own bok, Kate went on "book writing weekends" with co-writer (and currently estranged friend) Beth Carson but left the work to Carson as she slept and talked on the phone!

Sugarland Scores No. 1 With Hit Single "Stay"
- Sugarland's "Stay" hit No. 1 on
Billboardthe Mediabase/Country Aircheck chart.
- Owen Temple started out playing the Texas music scene with Cory Morrow and Pat Green, but temporarily shelved that part of his career when he moved to Wisconsin to study psychology at graduate school. Now he's back in Texas and on the verge of releasing his next album, Two Thousand Miles. Galleywinter has an insightful 20 Questions with Temple that'll catch you up on everything you don't know about this singer-songwriter.
What are the main differences in live music crowds you've encountered outside of Texas when compared to those in your home region?
In Texas, we have a culture of seeking out and supporting independent artists. That old Independence thing again — remember the Alamo? (laughs) Support of independent artists happens everywhere, but it seems to happen more passionately and by more people in Texas.
- Whit Watson, play-by-play sports announcer for Sun Sports and FSN Florida, recalls the time he met Shania Twain in a bar, yet didn't know it was her until years later.
Emboldened by the adult beverages, I walked over to the bar and introduced myself. I commented on how much I enjoyed her rendition of "O Canada." She was very appreciative, looked me straight in the eye, but was clearly not interested — or, at least, her "entourage" was keeping me at arm's length.
- Kenny Chesney announced fourteen stadium dates for his 2008 Poets & Pirates tour. He'll be joined by Gary Allan and LeAnn Rimes for all of the shows with Brooks & Dunn, Sammy Hagar, Big & Rich, and Luke Bryan joining in throughout.
- Listen: "Stronger Woman" from Jewel's upcoming album Perfectly Clear.
- If you're a Shel Silverstein completist Peter Swanson recommends Playboy's Silverstein Around the World, otherwise he says it feels too dashed-off and dated.
- Robert Hilburn says Time Life's Opry Video Classics "is a marvelous look at one of America's richest musical genres." Highlights include a cleanshaven Willie Nelson, vintage Porter and Dolly, George Jones with Tammy Wynette and Melba Montgomery, and the soulful performances by Don Gibson despite the nervousness present in his eyes.
- It's not exactly country music related, but Steve Martin's autobiography/memoir, Born Standing Up: A Comic's Life, is an excellent read. To keep it relevant, he talks about playing the banjo; his high school buddy John McCuen of Nitty Gritty Dirt Band fame; John's older brother, Bill, who became Martin's manager and basically envisioned the whole Will the Circle Be Unbroken project; another buddy that wanted to name his band Eagles instead of The Eagles, which Martin thought was silly; and the intimidation he felt on the few dates he had with Linda Ronstadt. He has more run-ins with country music, but those are the most memorable.
- Chris Cagle's My Life Is a Country Song is due out February 19.
- Jim McGuire is taking his Nashville Portraits to The Art Museum of West Virginia for an exhibit that will be on display from January 18 to March 23.
- UPDATE: Natalie left a comment on the previous post pointing us toward the recorded 911 call between Steve Holy and the operator after a gun was held to the back of his head. It's an unfortunate situation, but he's obviously drunk which makes for some hilarious comments.
7 Comments
I totally agree on the Steve Martin memoir! An all-around great read.
What's weird about that Steve Holy deal is that I've read comments that slam Holy's call and integrity because he's drunk. What, like anyone who legally consumes a few adult beverages deserves a gun put to his head? To a certain extent, I get it. There are a lot of alcoholics running around with integrity issues. But until there is more evidence against Holy, I'm not going to assume he's an alcoholic or that he lies. Why would he?
But without that call, I wouldn't know he's "a recording artist." Any press is good press.
What's their source? R&R's new charts (a copy of Billboard's) just went online, and Our Song's still at the top for a sixth week.
Stephen H- I assume Mediabase.
i love your song i know the whole song i wish i cam meet u ooneee dayyy honey email me back >

Early voters may see longer lines at the polls this year because of cuts in state funding, election officials say.
Catawba County voters will be limited to one early voting site in Newton this year, compared to multiple locations in past years.
Early voting, which starts Thursday, has traditionally been at the Highland Recreation Center in Hickory, in addition to the county's Main Library in Newton. However, due to funding cuts from the state, the Catawba County Board of Elections is unable to open the Hickory site this year, said Larry Brewer, director at the Catawba County Board of Elections.
"For people who live in the Hickory area, I think the voting people are going to miss it, because now they are going to have to drive to Newton," Brewer said recently. "This may cause some lines at the library, but we ask people to be patient. By all means, vote. It may take more time, but still have the patience and cast your ballot."
The state continues to freeze about $4 million in federal funds that has assisted counties with election operations since 2000.
Brewer said Help America Voter Act (HAVA) funds typically cover the cost of voting machine maintenance, poll worker training and early voting sites, including the site in Hickory. Those funds can't be released, though, until the state allocates an additional $664,000 to the State Board of Elections to meet federal guidelines.
At the state level, the N.C. General Assembly cut more than $1 million from the State Board of Elections' $6 million budget this year. The cuts led to the elimination of 14 positions, including eight technicians who helped elections officials in all 100 counties statewide.
"They were district technicians, and our district was about 12 counties. They helped us communicate at the state level," Brewer said. "Now, if we have questions, all 100 counties go to Raleigh. It put the burden back on the staff at the State board."
Funding or no funding, Catawba County must still operate an election.
Starting Thursday, early voting will last from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. Monday through Friday, as well as 8 a.m. to 1 p.m. Saturday.
"Keep those timeframes in mind and don't wait until the last day to come," Brewer said. "If you wait until those last couple of days, most of the time you will be in line."
Registration for the 2012 primaries ended last week, but voters can still do same-day registration during one-stop early voting in Newton, Brewer said.
The deadline to register to vote is 25 days before Election Day; however, Catawba County residents who missed the registration deadline may register in person and then vote at this one-stop absentee voting site, during the one-stop absentee voting period, according to the county and state elections websites.
To register and vote, citizens must:
• sign and complete a voter registration form, attesting that the person meets each eligibility requirement under law. Such attestation is signed under penalty of a class I felony.
• provide proof of residence by presenting a document showing the person's name and current address in Catawba County. Acceptable identification includes an N.C. driver's license; photo identification from a government agency; or a current utility bill, bank statement, government check, paycheck or other government document.
• A person may not register at the one-stop site and then vote on Election Day.
There are more than 100,400 registered voters in Catawba County, according to county records. About 65 percent of the county's residents are registered to vote.
"We encourage everyone to vote," Brewer said. "It's strange for residents in the Hickory area to have to come to Newton, but we encourage them to vote."
What's on the ballot?
• On the Democrat ballot, early voters will participate in primaries for the office of the president, the 10th U.S. congressional district, state governor, state lieutenant governor, the state's commissioner of agriculture, state commissioner of labor, state treasurer and the 42nd state Senate district.
• On the Republican ballot, citizens will vote for the office of the president, the state's 10th U.S. congressional district, state governor, state lieutenant governor, state auditor, the commissioner of agriculture, commissioner of insurance, secretary of state, superintendent of public instruction, state treasurer and Catawba County Board of Commissioners.
• For Libertarians, U.S. president is the only office on the ballot.
• All registered voters will also vote on a North Carolina constitutional amendment that would ban gay marriage in the state.

We have a privacy issue following our neighbours removing a row of conifers. We have done something similar to Lavender Lady with a mixture of shrubs, small trees and climbers (pyracantha, photinia, laurels, honeysuckle, clematis) which are in a border next to a 6 ft fence with an extra foot of trellis on top. I like this effect as is a bit more interesting than a hedge and you should have a good screen eventually! We have also created a trellis screen around the patio which works well because unfortunately we have first floor windows looking down at us so we had no privacy at all in our garden.
I have a Prunus Amanogawa in my small front garden and was initially a bit worried when I saw how tall they can get. However, I have seen lots of them in front gardens and where they have been kept pruned to a tidy and manageable column shape they look lovely!
Those petunias are amazing! I recently took this one of my clematis which I have planted through an old rose bush - only my second year of gardening but I well and truly have the bug!!
I have to say, my tree has performed a miracle since I posted and in the last few weeks has perked up and is now looking amazing! I have noticed however, that lots of Robinia's are looking a bit sorry for themselves this year. My friend's 30 yr old tree barely has a leaf on it
I have had to deal with a major privacy problem following our neighbours removing an entire row of screening conifers very suddenly and without warning! We have replaced with a mixture of smaller upright decidous trees (much more attractive than anything evergreen it seems!) and laurels with one conifer for good measure! We also have a small garden and am planning to keep everything well pruned and upright in order to maximise the space below.
If I'd had the money I would have considered a stilted hedge or pleached trees which would have solved the problem really well. It is an expensive option but would look neat and leaves you with more space for planting below.
Oh no - I've noticed holes in the leaves of my young cherry tree too. Been out to have a look at the trunk but can't see any oozing or dead patches. Could there be any other reasons for holes in the leaves?
I too planted several Montana (and a Russian Vine oops) when I took over our small garden knowing nothing about the beasts that they become!! Oh well, you live and learn and at least you get fast screening (if like me you need it!).
I did hack a Montana down last year, again not knowing about Clematis groups etc and I was brutal. After a slightly slow start this year it is nearly 6 foot again and romping away
Excellent - thanks Wintersong that is really helpful. A large lollypop shape would be perfect for my border and screening. Hadn't thought about doing that with my laurels before
Interesting thread - my recently planted laurels have gone mad too which I am delighted about as they will hopefully provide me with a bit of privacy in the next few years if they keep growing at this rate!
Wintersong - can I ask how did you train as standards? Do you continue to remove the branches lower down or wait until it has reached a certain size? Mine are currently about 7 feet tall and bushing out madly but as I have a small garden am more interested in them gaining in height than in width. Sorry for hijack btw OP I maybe should have started new thread!

Fowler admits Nth Qld will miss McBreen
North Queensland Fury captain Robbie Fowler admits the club will miss striker Daniel McBreen when he leaves for the Central Coast Mariners.
The 32-year old signed a two-year contract with the Mariners earlier this week and will link up with his new team after the current A-League season.
But Fowler is ruing the day his strike partner leaves as he will be sorely missed.
He will be missed but life does go on when players leave," Fowler said. "It's just up to whoever's left here to try and do the job."
Fowler said McBreen's work ethic and strength were great assets and was certain the duo will work well together in the final ten games of the season.
"He's here for the rest of the season and if you've seen Daniel at training you know what he's like, he'll put in his all right up until the end of the season," he said.
Fury coach Ian Ferguson said he expected the same performances and commitment in McBreen's last few months at the club as he showed when he joined at the start of the season.
"I did say to him that I would still be looking for the same effort and commitment that he's given us and he's assured me that he will," Ferguson admitted.
"And if he does that I won't keep him out of the team.
"I have said to him if it does drop then he won't be considered and that's how open and frank it was.
"Daniel's pretty honest and I'm pretty honest and we were fine, I trust the boy."

About the Book
David Pepin has loved his wife since the moment they met, and after thirteen years of marriage he still can't imagine living without her -- yet he obsessively contemplates her demise. Soon she is dead, and he's both deeply distraught and the prime suspect in her possible murder.
The officers investigating her death are intimately familiar with conjugal enigmas. Detective Ward Hastroll was happily married until his wife became inexplicably and militantly bedridden. And Detective Sam Sheppard is especially sensitive to marital guilt, having decades before been convicted and then declared innocent of his wife's brutal murder.
When Pepin is linked to a hit man, the ambiguity enfolding this case begins to resemble the Escher drawings that inspire the computer games Pepin designs for a living. These complex, interlocking dramas of murder and marriage brilliantly explore the twinned impulses of love and hate, each endlessly cycling into the other.
Surprising, emotionally intense, and astonishing in its reach, Mr. Peanut is a first novel of the highest order.

10,000 - 50,000 downloadsAdd this app to your listsTweets por @Appszoom
The app uses Surf Life Saving Australia's coastal safety databases to let you know precisely how safe a beach is, what the weather is like, when low and high tide is, when (and if) a beach is patrolled by surf lifesavers or lifeguards, along with full regulatory and hazard information.
In some states, the app will enable you to check patrol information and beach status in realtime. If you're not sure what the name of a beach is, simply press the GPS button to see a list of all the local beaches and their distance from your current location. This means that even if you're in a totally unfamiliar area you can pick the safest beach, not just the closest one.
Make educated decisions about the beach you're visiting by viewing current beach safety information and keep yourself and your family safe. The app can be translated into over 60 languages on the fly!
View swell, tide and water temperature for any beach in Australia.
Swimmers and Beach visitors
Find out which beaches are patrolled by surf lifesavers or lifeguards and swim between the flags on patrolled beaches.
App Features

- Search for a town, city, region or beach,

There are iPhone and Android versions of the app or it can be viewed on any device with a web browser and an Internet connection at beachsafe.org.au.
With a direct link between the app and Surf Life Saving Australia's nationwide network of surf club managed databases, users of this app can be assured that the patrol information and beach safety warnings are totally up-to-date.
If you find yourself in a new area that you are not familiar with, then you can utilise this app's location aware features to identify all the nearby beaches or alternatively, simply enter a place or beach name in the search window and the app will return results filtered in order by distance.
If you find this app useful and you wish to help support Surf Life Saving Australia and our 140,000 volunteers (we are funded entirely by charitable donations) then please click on the "More" tab within the app where you will find options for donating.

Article Summary
Games have come a long way since the days of Pong and its knob controller. These days, some computer users aren't content even with a 101 key keyboard and mouse combo. This has led to input devices that attempt to bring feet into the mix, such as the SoftStep KeyWorx and Thanko USB Foot Switch. The latest foot-centric input device to catch our eye comes from Canada-based Stelulu Technology, whose Stinky Footboard is aimed at gamers for whom two hands just aren't enough.

Neck brace compatible + a few other thoughts
I have a Kevlar mesh jacket and pants from Motoport. I really like the security the jacket offers, but do wonder sometimes if the armour might twist out of place in a crash. The pants are bulky and hotter than my Klims, so I only wear them on longer trips. A few comments:
I think the kevlar mesh is brilliant! It feels bombproof and flows lots of air, which is great for me in Australia.
I sometimes take the armour out and use a pressure suit/ knee guards underneath. Being able to do this is important to me on desert trips.
I wear a Leatt neck brace and to be honest its a bit of a pain as the jacket doesn't have the optional cut out for a neck brace. I would really like a neck brace compatible jacket and like the way the Leatt jackets cover the brace. That said it would be good to be able to use it without a cover as well to flow more air.
T-Pro would be good, but please include some chest/rib protection. I think the coverage offered by Forcefield with their Adventure harness is great for this.
The suit is not the most flattering thing to wear, especially with my beer gut
. A bit more shape/style would be good....
Pants in the boots or pants out of the boots? I'm starting to think pants over the boots is a dumb idea.
I layer up with outdoor gear if it's cold, and just chuck a waterproof jacket over everything if it rains. Liners seem silly to me, I'd rather keep everything dry.
Tasteful colours and not many logos would be good.
Kevlar thread seems a very good idea.
If you can produce a good 2 piece suit that takes account of the above I would buy it in a shot

Lok Sabha elections which are just round the corner has turned into a "battle of carnivores", as Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Akhilesh Yadav on Tuesday hit out at prime ministerial candidate of Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) Narendra Modi over Gir lions versus Hyena taunt.
Modi while addressing a rally in Bareilly district of Uttar Pradesh had mocked at Yadav saying that his government was unable to handle lions in Gujarat. The Yadav-led Samajwadi Party government had earlier requested the Gujarat government for a few Gir lions in 2012.
Last year, the Uttar Pradesh government had received the approval of the Central Zoo Authority to set up a lion safari in 50 acres of forestland.
Meanwhile, Yadav while addressing a news conference in Lucknow said his government also gave Hyena in return of Gujarat government's courtesy.
"It is correct that they had given lions and has made an announcement about it. I have now taken name of only one animal, Hyena. We have a list and there should be civility in politics. If he has given something then we have also given them something in return. One name we have taken, that is, we have given Hyena and you should tell us names of other animals also," Yadav said.
Commenting on the general elections, Yadav exuded confidence in his party.
"Samajwadi Party will achieve victory in every phase of election. You will get to see that the party will achieve victory in the first phase on April 10," he added. (ANI)

Q. "I've heard/read that if pex gets kinked, it can be heated and it will go back to its original form?"
A. The a, b, or c refers to the percentage of cross linking of the carbon molecules of the basic polyethylene material that becomes PEX during the processing of the material and extrusion into tubing form. The peroxide injection method also known as "Ingel Method" makes PEXa, Silane injection method makes PEXb and e-beam irradiation method is used to make PEXc.
The methods of processing the material are different to arrive at these similar (but different) PEX tubing. PEXa has the highest percentage of cross linked carbon molecules and so it might be stronger and more flexible than PEXb or PEXc.
Another PEX out there has been a PEX-AL-PEX that has a layer of aluminum sandwiched between two layers of PEX. This is popular in some circles because you can make it straighter and keeps it's structural shape at higher operating temperatures. It tends to not sag between hangers. The downside of course is it is stiffer and not as easy to work with. Plus, forget heating out a kink!
We hope that we have helped you on this page with PEX pipe questions,

This an OK app, but the latest update requires full network access and your GPS location. There's no reason for this, and it bothers me. I'm not updating.
(62 stars)
This is a very poorly edited app that is almost useless. I'm an experienced programmer relearning java and learning Android. What's here is probably true, but the context is so poorly presented I can't make sense of it. The tutorials are a joke.
