June 9, 2008
Pettis County authorities on Monday identified a Knob Noster man fatally shot by a Johnson County Sheriffĺs deputy Sunday afternoon.
Shawn D. Evans, 34, was killed in Southwestern Pettis County by Deputy James Doty after Evans allegedly pointed a handgun at the deputy.
Doty was taken to the hospital for treatment of injuries to his legs and back from a fall, officials said.
Pettis County and Johnson County authorities went to the intersection of state Route B and Upton Road before 2 p.m. Sunday to investigate the shooting.
Johnson County Sheriff Chuck Heiss said the deputy followed a stolen van into Pettis County. The deputy had been investigating a rash of burglaries in Henry and Johnson counties, authorities said.
Evans ran away from Doty on Upton Road before pointing a handgun at the deputy, according to authorities.
Doty fired one shot at Evans, Heiss said Sunday. Authorities initially believed Evans fired at Doty before being shot, but that report later turned out to be inaccurate.
ôUpon further investigation it appears that the victim did not actually fire a shot at the deputy, but pointed a handgun at the deputy and the deputy fired on Mr. Evans,ö said Pettis County Sheriff Kevin Bond.
The Pettis County Sheriffĺs Department processed the crime scene and is handling the case.
During a foot pursuit following the shooting, Doty fell into a culvert on the east side of state Route B, injuring himself.
The deputy remained at St. Lukeĺs Hospital in Kansas City on Monday.
A St. Lukeĺs spokeswoman on Sunday directed inquires about Dotyĺs condition to the Johnson County Sheriffĺs Department. Heiss said Monday that Doty was in ôgoodö condition.
There will be an automatic review of the shooting, Heiss said.
ôIn fact, the Lafayette County Sheriff is helping us with that,ö he said. That review could take as long as 30 days to complete, Heiss said.
The sheriff said there were no plans to put Doty on administrative leave during the review. His status was unchanged as of Monday, Heiss said, adding any status change would largely depend on the deputyĺs decision.
Pettis County authorities have the vehicle Evans was driving at the time of the shooting and were processing it Monday, Bond said.
Evansĺ body was scheduled for autopsy Monday afternoon at the Boone County Medical Examinerĺs Office, Pettis County Coroner Skip Smith said. The results of that autopsy were not available Monday.

CERF releases $15 million to assist Syrian refugees in Lebanon
1 October 2013: The Syria crisis has caused a major humanitarian emergency as millions of Syrians have fled to neighbouring countries. Some 731,000 Syrian refugees have sought shelter in Lebanon in 2013. They join more than 45,000 Palestinians and another 20,000 Lebanese returnees who had lived in Syria before the crisis began more than two years ago.
The large influx of refugees and returnees has increased Lebanon's population by 25 per cent, significantly straining the Lebanese economy and existing services, including health and education. To address the escalating humanitarian crisis, the Central Emergency Response Fund (CERF) has provided a rapid response grant of US$15,519,380 to six UN agencies and the International Organization for Migration (IOM). The allocations are expected to benefit 150,000 people.

Katharine McPhee - Christmas Is the Time to Say I Love You - CD Review
By: The Other Chad Blogcritics.org Reviews
Published on: 12/6/2010 11:18 AM
|With one of the most beautiful voices ever to grace the American Idol stage, Katharine McPhee battled all the way to the finals during season five in 2006. Ultimately finishing second to Taylor Hicks, McPhee has kept herself very busy in the last four years. Christmas Is the Time to Say I Love You is her latest project, a truly excellent collection of holiday music. McPhee and her producers have wisely chosen to keep the arrangements simple. Artists often shorten the shelf life of their Christmas-themed releases by layering on current production styles. Thankfully this isn't the case here, with a classic sense of style that will play equally well in years to come....read the full review

HDR + AA on GTX 260
Hi there
Please excuse my ignorance, but is HDR+AA supported on the GTX 260 ??
Reason I'm asking is that I noticed with Splinter Cell Chaos Theory I can't enable both HDR and antialiasing.
Is that just an issue with that game or is it that the GTX 260 doesn't support both at the same time ?
Re: HDR + AA on GTX 260
Yes it is supported
Force AA in the NVIDIA control panel while having HDR enabled in game.
That is what you have to do in games such as Oblivion
Re: HDR + AA on GTX 260
Sometimes you need to use nhancer to force a certain HDR+AA compatibility bit.

While the certification of renewable jet fuel derived from natural plant oils and animal fat was the talk of 2011, the big story in 2012 is expected to be the progress of alcohol-to-jet (ATJ) fuels towards obtaining the green light for commercial use.
Kevin Weiss, chief executive of California-based biofuels company Byogy Renewables, believes that ATJ fuels will be the next big thing in terms of reducing the aviation industry's reliance on petroleum and improving its carbon footprint. "This is going to be very public over the next four months - it's going to be a hot topic," says Weiss, who claims to have developed the world's first 100% synthetic replacement for jet kerosene.
"We've invented a process that converts alcohol to jet fuel. Most companies take the alcohol to someone else to turn into jet fuel." Byogy uses sugar-based feedstocks, which it pre-treats, ferments and distils into ethanol. The ethanol is then converted into jet fuel by catalytic synthesis.
One of the key advantages ATJ fuels have over fuels derived from hydroprocessed esters and fatty acids (HEFA) - which were certified for commercial use by ASTM International on 1 July - is that they do not have to be blended with kerosene because they already contain aromatics. A number of airlines began operating commercial flights running on a mixture of HEFA fuels and kerosene during 2011.
"This is a 100% replacement jet fuel from the most abundant feedstock in the world: sugar," says Weiss. "HEFA fuels require massive hydroprocessing - the fuel has to be taken to an oil refinery. We're completely different - the fuel is made at our site and is ready for distribution at a fraction of the cost." Weiss is hopeful that ASTM certification for ATJ fuels can be achieved either by the end of 2013 or the middle of 2014. "It's not a matter of if ATJ will get approved, it's a matter of when."
Richard Altman, executive director of the Commercial Aviation Alternative Fuels Initiative (CAAFI), believes the certification process for alcohol-based jet fuels will likely take "two to three years", judging by the amount of time it took for HEFA fuels and fuels developed through the Fischer-Tropsch process to be approved.
"We need to be combining the forces of all the global entities working on this to get the data [required for the certification process to begin] in a timely manner - that's the challenge," said Altman. "We understand the scale-up. Alcohol should be readily available, and it's then just a matter of how quickly it can be commercialised."
Another key project to look out for on the ATJ front is the collaboration unveiled in October between Virgin Atlantic and Chicago-based energy company LanzaTech. The latter generates fuel-grade ethanol through a gas-to-liquid process, which involves capturing vented gases from steel, cement and chemical factories and fermenting it. The ethanol produced is then sent to Swedish Biofuels, which converts it into synthetic jet fuel.
Virgin Atlantic is hopeful that it will be able to conduct flights from Shanghai and Delhi to London using the fuel produced through this venture within three years, provided ASTM certification can be achieved in the coming two years. Altman sees LanzaTech's solution as a win-win situation: "In the case of LanzaTech, the steel mills will pay you to take away their carbon."

Rich surprise: Alan Bond bounces back
Bond spent just over three years in jail after being convicted in 1997 of stripping $1.2 billion from Bell Resources.
- Peter Litras
- May 28, 2008
Update: Former bankrupt and convicted fraudster Alan Bond has bounced back from financial oblivion to make it on to the list of Australia's richest.
Eight years after being released from jail, Mr Bond rejoined the BRW's Rich 200 list in 157th spot, with an estimated wealth of $265 million thanks mainly to his overseas mining interests.
Mr Bond, who was declared bankrupt in 1992, now holds stakes in Madagascar Oil and Lesotho Diamond Corporation, which are at various stages of development. BRW said it had undertaken an extensive investigation into Mr Bond's fortune, and its valuation of him was the minimum.
While Mr Bond is the biggest surprise on the annual roll-call of the country's richest individuals, also notable is the slide by casino and media magnate James Packer from top slot to third, dropping below Fortescue Metals chief Andrew ''Twiggy'' Forrest and Westfield Group co-founder Frank Lowy.
Mr Forrest's fortune boomed to an estimated $9.41 billion dollars at the time of the list's completion. That hoard has ballooned beyond $10 billion this week, driven higher by Mr Forrest's dominant stake in iron-ore miner Fortescue. The company's shares broke the $10-mark for the first time yesterday.
Frank Lowy, second on last year's BRW Rich 200, maintains that ranking, although his fortune dropped slightly to $6.30 billion from $6.51 billion last year.
Rich list editor John Stensholt said the list reflected continued strength in the mining industry and a "cattle boom''.
Agribusiness barons include Graeme and Evan Acton of Queensland, who have a combined fortune of $211 million, and the McDonald family, which operates a Queensland cattle station, with $209 million.
$200-million entry point
About one third of those on the list had fallen in value but the total worth of the top 200 rose to $139.6 billion from $127.6 billion a year ago. To make it on this year's list, the entry point rose to $200 million from $180 million last year.
''A big surprise was how bad a year James Packer had on the Australian Stock Exchange,'' Mr Stensholt said.
Mr Packer's worth shrank from $7.25 billion to $6.1 billion after his company Publishing and Broadcasting was split into the Crown casino operator and Consolidated Media Holdings.
It is the first time in 20 years that a Packer has not headed the Rich 200 list.
Australia's richest woman Gina Rinehart is now in fifth, after her fortune rose from $4 billion to $4.39 billion this year, thanks in part to the boom in commodity prices.
BRW estimates Ms Rinehart, who dropped from No. 4 last year, may top the list in five years if the resources boom continues and iron ore prices remain strong.
This year's share market retreat has prompted several high-profile business people to drop from the top 200, including ABC Learning founder Eddy Groves and the former executive chairman of Allco Finance Group, David Coe.
Bond rebounds
Mr Bond rejoins the ranks of Australia's wealthiest people after a 19 years hiatus.
He was last on the list in 1989, having previously peaked in 1987 with a fortune of $400 million.
Mr Bond went from signwriter and real estate developer to corporate high-flier before he was convicted in 1997 of the then biggest corporate fraud in Australia's history - stripping $1.2 billion from Bell Resources.
He spent just over three years in jail before his release in 2000.
In an interview with British high-society magazine Tatler about two years ago, Mr Bond said the cash would roll in once his African investments hit paydirt.
''I never lost faith in my ability to climb the mountain again,'' Mr Bond said then.
Mountains of money
Mr Forrest's Fortescue only began exporting iron ore to China from its Chichester Range project near Port Hedland in WA earlier this month. His wealth more than doubled in the past year, from $3.89 billion, when he ranked fifth.
Ms Rinehart, the daughter of the late mining magnate Lang Hancock, signed a deal in 2006 with global miner Rio Tinto to develop her Hope Downs iron ore mine in Western Australia.
The youngest person to make the rich list is Nathan Tinkler, who at just 32 years old has amassed $426 million.
Mr Tinkler last week sold his 10.4% stake in Macarthur Coal to predator ArcelorMittal for about $440 million.
The wealthiest list debutants - each worth $991 million - are Travers Duncan and Brian Flannery, from Queensland-based coal miner Felix Resources.
The number of individual billionaires has risen to 38, from 30 last year.

Emulation Technology Provides the First Ball Grid Array Adapters for Motorola's MPC821 PowerPC Processor; BGA Adapter Connects Test Instruments to Motorola's MPC821 PowerPC Portable Systems Processors.
The communications chip has a PowerPC core and is used in embedded applications.
"As Motorola and other manufacturers increase their BGA offerings, Emulation Technology is committed to providing our customers with the most advanced test and debug tools available," said Jack Stephens, ET's vice president of sales and marketing. "Engineers contemplating BGA-based designs can be confident that ET will provide the test and debug tools necessary to complete their designs."
ET's BGA emulator adapter connects the BGA pads from the MPC821 microcontroller to an emulator pod. The logic analyzer adapter extends the leads and labels the signals of the IC so it's easy to attach test leads to it. The adapter fits between the Motorola MPC821 and the surface mount pads, and accepts test leads from logic analyzers and oscilloscopes. The prototyping adapter adapts standard or high density prototyping boards to BGA packages. Without these adapters, it is virtually impossible to gain access to the BGA pads on the target board.
Chip manufacturers and system designers alike will welcome the use of BGA packaging. BGAs reap higher manufacturing yields and have a higher resonant frequency than quad flatpacks (QFPs). They take up less board space and are easier to test than QFPs in high pin counts. These characteristics often reduce overall system costs.
ET's BGA adapters are part of a long line of industry firsts for the company. ET recently introduced the industry's first BGA adapters for Motorola's MPC860 PowerPC processor and was the first company to introduce pin grid array and plastic quad flatpack adapters.
The BGA emulator adapter for the Motorola MPC821 is available with a zero insertion force socket. BGA adapters that support Motorola's MPC821 begin at $1,286.00 and delivery is 14 days ARO.
Founded in 1983, Emulation Technology is the industry leader in advanced interconnect devices and provides a comprehensive family of PC-based development tools, backed by post-sale, 24-hour, 7-day technical support. With more than 4,000 interconnect product offerings, Emulation Technology has over 40,000 customers and operations in 40 countries. The privately held company is headquartered at 2344 Walsh Avenue, Bldg. F, Santa Clara, Calif. 95051. -0-

text: WASHINGTON (IPS) - A new documentary from a shadowy non-profit, the Clarion Fund, has ties to groups widely accused of Islamophobia. The Third Jihad purports to educate US citizens about the threat of a "cultural Jihad" by the country's own Muslim-American population. The film goes to great lengths to define itself as an expose of radical Muslim elements, not the faith at large.

The Hickory Pit
Very tasty barbecue at good prices!
We stopped in over Memorial Day Weekend 2009 for a quick lunch. The restaurant was pretty busy, but we were seated right away. We ordered a variety of meals from the barbecue (pork) sandwich to ribs, and even one of the barbecue platters and "neon" fries. Everything came out quickly and was very tasty. The coleslaw is served on top of the meat unless you ask otherwise, and this adds a unique flavor to the food. The neon fries aren't really neon, just served with some onions, bacon, and cheese. The meals are very big, and most are under $10.
The only negative I saw was that they do not serve sauce on the side.
Hagy's Catfish Hotel
In 1825 Henry and Polly Hagy claimed the land on this site for a farm along the Tennessee River. Their son built a storage shed that was used to store goods, then was occupied by Union soldiers during the Battle of Shiloh, and later was used to cook up tasty catfish and hush puppies. The shack became the original Catfish Hotel.
The restaurant opened in 1938 as a family business. The restaurant gained a large following and was expanded over the years, but burned to the ground in 1975. A year later the present building was finished and the restaurant reopened with the same great fish and ribs.
We had dinner here over Memorial Day Weekend in 2009. The wait when we arrived was at least an hour, maybe longer; luckily we had reservations and we just waited five minutes. We had a round of beers, then ordered our meals. We started with salads and tasty coleslaw with some kind of tasty sauce on the side. Three of us had the "Hotel Combo" which included a half rack of barbecued ribs and a filet of fried catfish with french fries for $19. The two other meals we had were barbecued ribs and the catfish dinner (two filets). All you can eat catfish is just $12! All meals come with a free basket of outstanding hushpuppies.
Our meal was great, the ribs tender, and the fish crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside. Perfection!

Good treats
posted 6 years ago
We love canidae. Duchess eats canidae dry food and the canidae snap biscuits. I accidentally bought the senior/overweight version. She ate them without hesitating, so I guess this version tastes a lot like the "regular" version.
Pros: Healthy treats
Cons: none

Still too big
posted 7 years ago
I bought a bag of these to try for my dog. I always buy the weight management products as far as treats go. I found the bars easy to break but they are still too large for portion control. The 'scoring' of the biscuits makes it difficult to break them up even more. Could be ok for large breed dogs.
Pros: Quality
Cons: Size is still too big for weight management
