Video adapters have come a long way since they were first introduced in 1981 by IBM. The computer component was originally called Monochrome Display Adapter (MDA), it provided text-only displays of green or white text on a black screen. Its previous capabilities looked so basic that it is rather impressive how today's minimum standard for new video cards is Video Graphics Array (VGA), which allows 256 colors and even more with high-performance standards like Quantum Extended Graphics Array (QXGA) which lets video adapters display millions of colors at resolutions of up to 2040 x 1536 pixels.
Your graphics board is just like your computer (PC, laptop, or MacBook), it has its own processor and memory and it works in conjunction with the CPU and other internals. Though not a crucial component of the computer, having a good one makes a lot of difference especially if you are into gaming and watches most of your videos on your computer as it is engineered to help take the load off your computer's processor and memory systems (CPU and RAM) when playing games and watching videos on your monitor. It is inserted into the motherboard and can be easily removed from your desktop machine for a replacement or upgrade.
Unlike its earlier days, the market for display adapters has exploded with many major computer component manufacturer carrying their own range. Finding one that suits your budget and however many pixels you want isn't as difficult as it once were. However, the abundance of choices does not necessarily make the buying process any easier. You'd want to make sure that what you bought (no matter how affordable it is) is really the best one for all your needs and requirements.
One nice thing about graphics board product names is that it contains most of the necessary information you need to know about it (for instance the type of RAM requirement, its speed, etc.). Whether you are new to purchasing video cards or a seasoned PC builder from the ground up, you must first ask yourself how much memory you need. This is very crucial as most cards are only compatible to certain RAM types and sizes. So how do you determine the amount of memory you need? First, you need to identify which program you frequently use. If you are a hardcore gamer, for instance, you can find a recommended amount of memory needed for the graphics card on the program's information box. Take this and add a little more memory to future proof your display card since softwares are regularly updated and hence will require more memory. A good graphics card guide rule of thumb is that more is always better, with higher-end cards being required for cutting-edge 3D video games and graphics or video editing software.
Another major consideration when looking for a new graphics adapter is the number of bits you need. The usual bit range is between 64 to 512 bit, these numbers represent how fast information can be relayed between the processors and the memory. You can find affordable yet efficient and good graphics card with up to 128 bits but would have to be prepared to shell out a bit more if you want to purchase cards with 256 bits or higher.
Other things you should consider when upgrading your adapter is the slot in your motherboard. Most old computers come with GAP slots while most new ones use the PCI Express slot. Make sure you check this before buying a card that will not even fit in your motherboard. Speaking of fitting, you should also consider your output ports. Video adapters come with a port which you can plug into your monitor but in case you want to connect them into your PC or HDTV television then you'd better look for one that comes with an HDMI port. This is crucial when you are getting a more powerfull card with the sole purpose of playing video games.
It is rather tricky to identify one single best graphics processor as each come with their own merits. However, the two biggest (and hence more variety and wider price range) manufacturers of display cards right now are ATI and NVIDIA. Chipsets manufactured by ATI carry the Radeon brand, while NVIDIA made ones are under the GeForce label. As discussed earlier, you will find information on the product's title, you will see three or four digits after the product's name, and typically the larger the first number, the newer the card (for instance a Radeon 4350 is newer than a 4100 but not newer than one in the 5000 line). A graphics adapter's processor can be considered as the single biggest factor in its performance, but be sure to factor in the considerations mentioned above before purchasing one to make sure that you are getting the best possible deal for your budget.
Whether you are building your own PC or upgrading your gaming PC or laptop, you can be sure that you will find the latest and even hard to find graphics card here. Easily compare each product's specifications and prices while reading reviews from actual users prior to purchasing to make sure that you are indeed buying the right one.

Property may exceed departmental needs because it is:
- Not needed due to staff reduction/transfer or mission change
- To be replaced
- Damaged
- Beyond repair
- Obsolete
- An historic artifact
To declare surplus property, your department must:
- phone 617-720-3146 for disposition information
- submit the Declaration of Surplus Property Form OSD 25.
|Group items in the same category together on Form OSD 25. Use a space between categories or submit a separate form for each category. Always use a separate form for items deemed "Salvage" or "Worthless."
|Condition Codes
|Reviewed by the SSP officer. See below for special guidelines relating to the condition "Worthless."
|Original Value
|The acquisition cost or its best estimate. It is important to provide a value whenever possible. Receiving parties use this value when entering surplus property into their own inventory records.
Authorization Required for Transfer
No department may transfer, donate, destroy or otherwise dispose of surplus property without the authorization of the SSP officer. The transfer guidelines require that the donor department:
- Notify the SSP officer immediately of any change in the reported location
- Allow inspection by receiving parties
- Obtain authorization from the SSP officer prior to transfer
- Record transfer authorizations in inventory records
- Sign, as proof of transfer, a copy of the authorization letter within 10 days of transfer
- Submit this proof of transfer to the SSP officer within 30 days
In the event your department is aware of another department that needs your surplus property, your department may submit a letter to the SSP officer requesting authorization for transfer.
Worthless Property
In order for a department to declare surplus property worthless, the department must appoint, whenever practical, a three-member team composed of the department head, fiscal officer, and a third person.
Members are required to personally inspect and determine the value of the property. If the property is deemed worthless, each member must sign a certification to be sent to the SSP officer.
Once the SSP officer authorizes destruction, the department should remove any part of an assembly that can be used or stocked for repair of other articles. The department is then authorized to destroy the worthless property.

So far Tony Stewart has run in two of the four races he is competing in during his "racecation" in Australia. The first race was scheduled to run on Decemeber 26th was delayed a day by rain at Parramatta City Raceway. In that race Stewart made it into the main event on a promotor's provisional and started dead last in the field where he drove his car through the field , finishing 7th in a car fielded by Garry Rush. His teammate Donny Schatz won that race.
Last night Stewart placed a very respectable 4th in an exciting event where teammate Donny Schatz again ruled the night- placing second to young Australian driver Ian Madsen. Stewart is expected to race two more races while in Australia- on January 2nd and January 3rd.

Advanced Degrees Program
June 1–19, 2015
The Advanced Degrees Program at The School of Theology is a summer program designed to increase professional knowledge in the practice of ministry for clergy. Classes build the relationship between the practice of ministry and biblical, historical, and theological studies by combining learning in community with a cycle of daily prayer and worship in the Anglican tradition. Please see the 2014-15 catalog for degree details.
- Doctor of Ministry
- Doctor of Ministry in Preaching
- Doctor of Ministry in Liturgy
- Masters of Sacred Theology
- Masters of Sacred Theology in Anglican Studies
2015 Summer Courses
Most students will register for two (2) of the following courses this summer:
"Liturgy and Moral Imagination"
Don Saliers
Saliers will examine some of the major rites of the Book of Common Prayer and ecumenical sources asking the question: In what ways does liturgy both shape and express life of a congregation in the moral life? Sources such as Rowan Williams, Iris Murdoch, Madeline L'Engle, and Stanley Hauerwas will come into play. Considerations will also be given to the role of musical settings of prayer.
Saliers will give a public lecture on June 9, 7 p.m., in the School's Hargrove Audotorium in Hamilton Hall. The general public is invited. This lecture is made possible by the Jones lecture Fund.
"Jesus, Paul, and Preaching"
Amy-Jill Levine and Bill Brosend
The homiletical task is to proclaim the good news. That is what Jesus and Paul did. But how did they do so? What were the contexts in which they did so, and how can we best understand their contexts and proclamation, and apply them to our own contexts? New Testament and homiletics scholars Levine and Brosend join to explore and share their understandings of how Jesus and Paul proclaimed the good news in their Second Temple contexts, and lead participants in imagining how to proclaim the good news today.
"Origen, Spiritual Exegesis, and the Roots of Universal Salvation"
Charles M. Stang
This course will focus on the life and writings of the third-century Christian writer, Origen of Alexandria, widely regarded as one of the greatest and most influential theologians of early Christianity. He pioneered a practice of scriptural interpretation that sought to bring to the surface successive layers of spiritual meaning. This practice, sometimes called "allegorical" interpretation, was both wildly influential and controversial (and it remains so today). Origen is also (in)famous for defending universal salvation, that is, the conviction that all of creation will eventually be saved at the end of time—an event he calls the apokatastasis or "restoration of all things." He thought of our salvation as a pedagogical process, in which our embodied sojourn on earth serves to rehabilitate our fallen minds. Our reading of Origen will be with an eye to retrieving his theology for contemporary use, both his practice of spiritual exegesis (for preaching and bible study) and his controversial conviction in universal salvation.
"Enough: Limits and the Old Testament"
Rebecca Wright
In this course, we will use three biblical "lenses" to look at both other biblical passages and some contemporary issues, especially matters having to do with scarcity and the environment. Genesis 3 tells the story of humans' first disobedience, our refusal to accept a God-given limit. Genesis 4 shows one outcome when brothers are unable to get along. 2 Samuel 11 is a paradigmatic account of entitlement and some of its entailments. We will move from the biblical text to its reception to its use(s) within the church today. Class members will be responsible for reading and participating in lively conversation. The major graded work will be something practical that will be of use in one's home setting.
"Fearless Dialogues: Caring for Marginalized Populations"
Gregory C. Ellison II
"Hope" has become a catch-all term in public media, a buzz word in political commentary, and a common theme in theological discourse. However, developing and maintaining a hopeful disposition may prove challenging for stigmatized populations who feel muted and invisible and for the caregivers who seek to aid them. This course garners "expert" wisdom from therapeutic conversations as case studies and from scholars with distinct disciplinary perspectives who have variously considered the nature and power of human hope. This course aims: to equip caregivers in more adequately responding to the primary threats to hope that contribute to feelings of muteness and invisibility; to assist caregivers in identifying and creating adaptive survival strategies that can lead unacknowledged populations to envision more hopeful and generative futures; and, to enhance the caregiver's skills of self-criticism and self-care to defray the effects of countertransference that can endanger the caregiver's hope. Young African American men will serve as the primary lens through which to investigate the problem of threatened hope, muteness, and invisibility. However, care for other unacknowledged groups including, but not limited to, the imprisoned, the homeless, and the elderly will be discussed. Visit Ellison's website, "Fearless Dialogues" for more information.
"Ritualizing Relationships"
James F. Turrell and Melissa M. Hartley
This course considers ways in which the church ritualizes relationships between persons, looking principally at the marriage liturgies and their cognates, official and unofficial. Students will begin by examining foundational issues in gender and sexuality. Students will examine the historical evolution of the marriage rites and ancillary marriage practices, before examining emerging frontiers in the ritualizing of relationships. The purpose of this inquiry is to enable students to assess critically the marriage rites of the 1979 prayer book and the growing number of blessing rites for other sorts of relationships, as well as to understand the historical development of marriage rites.
The Advanced Degrees Program schedule may be found here.

The current congressional hearings concerning the Internal Revenue Service are nothing but a dog and pony show ("At hearing, IRS official mum," May 23). I heard Rep. Elijah Cummings in a TV interview try to blame former President George W. Bush for the IRS activity. Newsflash to Mr. Cummings: Mr. Bush hasn't been president for over four years.
Any investigator knows you don't start the investigation of criminal conduct with the top of the food chain. The investigation starts with the lowest member on the food chain. If they invoke their Fifth Amendment rights, they get immunity because the investigation is really targeting who gave the approval for the criminal conduct.
When all the questions are answered and as the committee continues up the food chain, they will discover who authorized the IRS to target certain groups.

Re: So it seems that UT3 & Crysis have'nt sold well....
Maybe the prevision of sales for Crysis is for a long time periode , 2 or 3 years like Far Cry. This is typical for this style games and the PC - Far Cry 700.000 copys in four monts in 2004 and a total of 3 millons in PC , the source is Ubisoft . And maybe some part of sales is the digital distribution . About Unreal 3 , maybe the sales numbers are more negatives .
About digital distribution in USA
That's why market researchers are seeing these numbers:
Traditional shrink-wrapped PC games in the U.S. retail market are on the decline, falling to $953 million in 2005, a 36 percent drop from $1.5 billion in 2001, according to the NPD Group.
Internet-related game revenues in North America, including online purchases, subscriptions and advertising, rose to
$1 billion in 2005,
more than six times the
$160 million in 2001
, according to DFC Intelligence.
IDC predicts U.S. sales of PC game downloads will almost double this year to about
$500 million
and grow to
$763 million in 2007
And about Crysis sales ...
in Germany
, only box sales
1 Crysis (PC)
2 Super Mario Galaxy (Wii)
3 Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare (PC)
4 Assassin's Creed (PS3)
5 Assassin's Creed (Xbox 360)
6 Crysis Collector's Edition (PC)
7 High School Musical: Sing it (PS2)
8 WWE Smackdown vs. RAW 2008 (PS2)
9 Unreal Tournament 3 (PC)
10 Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare (PS3)

6600 256MB vs. 6600GT 128MB
Hello everyone. :) Nice forum you have here! Been browsing around and saw lots of interesting stuff.
I'm looking to upgrade my crappy Radeon 9200SE AGP card (I know, I know...I just didn't get the "never buy an SE card" advice until after I had bought the card!).
At first, I was deciding between a Sapphire Radeon 9600XT and an ASUS Geforce 6600. I was advised in another forum that I should go with the Geforce 6600 and that I should ditch the vanilla and pick up a GT. Upon looking at the benchmarch scores on Tom's Hardware, I decided to go the Geforce way (I use Linux a lot and Nvidia seems to be less of a hassle with Linux).
However, I am still stuck between the vanilla card and the GT. The vanilla card is one with 256MB RAM, while the GT has 128MB. Also, the vanilla card is about 6000 yen (around 50 bucks) less than the GT. The vanilla is about 110 bucks, while the GT is about 160.
My game playing habits do not lean towards the Half Life, Call of Duty side of gaming. I mostly play stuff like Civilization, SimCity, StarCraft, and (more recently) A Tale in the Desert. I might try out WoW sometime...seems kinda interesting.
Also, I am hoping to get a year-plus or two or more out of the card (trying to milk my Athlon XP 2500+ for as much as I can!).
My questions are these: am I going to kick myself in the future for not getting the GT? Should I just bite the bullet and get the GT? Does the 256MB RAM for the vanilla card make much of a difference between the 128MB for the GT?
Thanks for your help.
My computer specs: Athlon XP 2500+, ASUS A7V8X-MX, 512MB PC2700 RAM (soon to be 1280MB).
Re: 6600 256MB vs. 6600GT 128MB
GT all the way
Re: 6600 256MB vs. 6600GT 128MB
Not only will you kick yourself for not getting the gt, but so will we... get the gt.
More memory will not help on a slower card.
Re: 6600 256MB vs. 6600GT 128MB
Thanks for the replies!
OK. I don't want to be kicked. :) I'll get the GT.
Miser that I am, I went searching and found a cheaper (by about 1000 yen...I said miser) GT. The cheaper one is by Gigabyte. What are the differences between the manufacturers of the card?
Upon closer inspection, I noticed the memory speed for the ASUS is listed as 900mhz, while the Gigabyte is listed as 1000mhz. The Gigabyte one has a faster memory speed, but is less money. The only reason I could see is that the ASUS one comes with a Japanese manual (I live in Japan, so I am buying from a Japanese site).
Anyway, I'll be getting a GT pretty soon. Thanks again for your input.
Re: 6600 256MB vs. 6600GT 128MB
You could get the gigabyte one, even if it does not have a japanese manual, as you seem to read and write english quite fluently. Anyways, there is not too much of a difference in the card manufacturers. If the site has reviews, read the reviews on both the asus and gigabyte. The gigabyte looks like a good deal in this situation. Good luck with the upgrade!
Re: 6600 256MB vs. 6600GT 128MB
Also, I'm not Japanese, just living in Japan! ;)
Re: 6600 256MB vs. 6600GT 128MB
As long as the memory modules are 2ns ram, most memory will clock to 1000MHz without an issue.
If you have 1.6ns ram (not common in recent time) you could clock to 1200MHz easily.
You will probably get 2.0ns ram.
Good luck.
Re: 6600 256MB vs. 6600GT 128MB
You should go with the 6600GT even though it has less memory because it will be faster in games and most come clocked at 500/1000 ,and most plain 6600 comes clocked at 300/500 on memory ,so with the memory being so slow the extra 128mbs really just don't help ,it just a quimick to get people to buy it.the extra money for the 6600GT is well worth it IMO.
Re: 6600 256MB vs. 6600GT 128MB
Thanks for all the advice, folks. :)
I just ordered the Gigabyte Geforce 6600GT. Hopefully it'll be arriving in the mail soon. And I'll let you know how the install goes.
Again, thanks for your help.
Re: 6600 256MB vs. 6600GT 128MB
Few things to remember.
You need a power supply that cranks out a lot of AMPS on the +12v rail.
6600GT AGP needs a power lead plugged into the card. Prefereably nothing else sharing the lead. Don't know if your current card uses one or not...
If you have performance issues, look into uninstalling and reinstalling the motherboard GART driver for the AGP bus. It's easy and is often the solution to performance issues.
Re: 6600 256MB vs. 6600GT 128MB
About the power supply...I have a 400W powersupply. I'm pretty sure I've got power to spare. My current card does use a power lead. I haven't opened up the case in a while, but I remember there being a lot of extra power leads. I should be OK.
I have no idea what you're talking about with the GART driver. :) But, if I have performcance issues, I'll be back!
One question: I downloaded the newest version of Nvidia's drivers. I'm going to assume that it would be better to use those instead of the drivers included on the CD that comes with the card. An OK assumption?
And I'm just going to use the ATI driver uininstall utility, turn off the computer, change cards, and then boot back up. That should get me where I need to be (as per installing the new drivers), right?
Re: 6600 256MB vs. 6600GT 128MB
When switching from an ATI card to an nVidia one, you may find it beneficial to use DriverCleaner (www.drivercleaner.net). Instructions with the program.

Turner strained his right shoulder during batting practice before the Marlins' 8-2 win against the San Diego Padres and will miss tonight's start. Brad Hand will start in place of Turner.
There's no word on when he'll be able to return.

To date no conclusion can be made as to the contributor to the incident and it would be sub judice to say so.
All you need to do is sub the word "Russia" for "Soviet Union" and the joke still packs the same punch.
The sub was so quiet, that it consistently managed to get within easy torpedo range.
shortened form of substitute, 1830; the verb in this sense is from 1853. Related: Subbed; subbing. From 1917 as short for submarine (n.).

I recently spent 5 nights at the HH Whitney House and had a wonderful stay. The house is well-situated on the Esplanade close to the French Quarter. I stayed in the Scarlett O'Hara Room for 2 nights and the Groom's Room for 3 nights. Both were comfortable although I preferred the Groom's Room as it was more spacious. A very nice cooked breakfast was provided every morning. The host, Glen, is a New Orleans native and was able to offer plenty of useful information about things to see and do and how to get around. Highly recommended!

We spent four great nights at Whitney House in the Treme. what we expected and more. Glen, Randy etal are great hosts. They provide a very warm and friendly environment. They are laid back and at the same time attentive. This was even while they were preparing for the parade. Whitney is an old gracious home with lots of charm. It served as a great base for enjoying New Orleans and not being in the midst of the French Quarter. Looking forward to the next opportunity to stay here again.

We could not have been happier with our stay at the HH Whitney House on the Historic Esplanade! Glen and Randy were happy to tell us about their city and were fantastic about explaining where things were! Glen made us feel welcome from the beginning and never made us feel like we were a bother. He went out of his way numerous times to make sure we had everything we needed! We will be back!

Maison et chambre très plaisantes, même si la salle de bains située à un autre étage était glaciale (il y avait seulement un chauffage d'appoint). L'accueil a été minimal car nous ne sommes pas parfaitement billingues. Le propriétaire n'a fait aucun effort pour qu'on le comprenne un minimum. Il parlait très vite sans articuler, même si nous ne lui demandions pas d'être un professeur d'anglais.Par contre, il était très attentif au bon traitement de deux couples d'Anglais présents au même moment. En conclusion, séjour extrêmement décevant car une location en bed and breakfast est censée être moins impersonnelle par rapport à une location en hotel classique.

The elegant Solarium bath has a beautiful antique clawfoot tub and crystal chandelier hanging overhead while the home's original circa 1920 bath is also available for use.

What are lutein and zeaxanthin?
Lutein and zeaxanthin are carotenoids, nutrients found naturally in plant foods and in the macula of the human retina. The macula, located in the very center of the retina, is responsible for producing the sharp, central vision needed to see fine detail (for reading, sewing, etc.). Research shows that higher plasma levels of lutein and zeaxanthin may be associated with macular health.*

Tongue, Babbo
One night at Babbo, there was so much tongue on the menu, I devised my own tasting menu. The main course: Calf's tongue with peperonata in aceto Manodori. Four tongues the size of pocket combs, deeply browned to a slight crisp on the outside, with a mealy, almost fried- polenta-like texture inside, and a mellow, beefy flavor, cut by balsamic-marinated peppers and onions. Easily the best tongue I've ever had. Rob Patronite

Pig Snout, La Taza de Oro
Not so much a menu item as a bonus surprise occasionally turning up in a heaping plate of lechón (roast pork), like the lucky bean baked into a Frenchman's galette des rois. The problem with the pig snout is that more than any other cooked pig part, perhaps, it looks like what it is. Aside from that, and a slight whiskeriness, it's tender, succulent, and full of pork flavor. R.P.

Dr. Orr lone finalist for Highland Park post
Editor's Note: The WFISD has just released the following statement regarding Dr. Dawson Orr and his candidacy for superintendent of Highland Park School District:
Wichita Falls Independent School District Superintendent Dr. Dawson Orr has been named the lone finalist for Superintendent of Highland Park School District in Highland Park, Texas. Orr was named lone finalist at a Highland Park Board meeting this morning. State law requires a 21-day waiting period before the superintendent's contract can be finalized. Once finalized, Orr would begin the new position in January.
"This opportunity for Dr. Orr is a statement of the quality of education in our district. Obviously, the trustees in Highland Park saw many of the same educational leadership qualities in Dr. Orr as we saw when our district selected him as our Superintendent. I think this speaks well for our system. Dr. Orr has assembled a strong educational and administrative team and I am confident that we will continue our strong tradition of academic excellence," said Board President Bob Payton.
HPISD serves about 6,300 students from the City of University Park and the town of Highland Park and the City of Dallas. The district has four elementary schools, one intermediate school, one middle school, and one high school.
Orr has served as Superintendent of Wichita Falls ISD for almost six years, beginning in February of 2003. The average tenure of a superintendent, according to the Texas Association of School Boards, is four years.
Under Orr's leadership the district has achieved many accomplishments:
Successful bond campaign
Collaborative projects with other governmental entities such as the City of WF with the expanded full-sized gyms at Scotland Park and Jefferson Elementary
>Numerous state and national acknowledgments for improved student achievement
Improved campus security at secondary schools
Orr's vision for the district and partnership with community included many initiatives:
Teacher leadership cohort
WFISD Leadership Institute
Communities In School program established in collaboration with the United Way which serves at-risk students in secondary schools
Academic Success Program expansion to all three high schools
Teacher Salary Committee that annually reviews and recommends teacher salary schedules to the Board of Trustees
Superintendent Scholars Summer Programs
Community Facilities Action Team
Citizens Advisory Team
Drug Testing Advisory Committee
Orr was also involved in the community:
Current United Way Campaign Chair
Past President of Downtown Rotary Club
Sheppard AFB Advisory Council
MSU Dillard College of Business Advisory Council
BCI Advisory Council
Orr's professional recognitions while in WFISD include the Key Communicator of the Year Award from the Texas Association of School Public Relations and the Superintendent of the Year Award from Texas Communities in Schools. He also represented WFISD in the state legislature and served as Legislative Chair for Texas Association of School Administrators.

Va. hobbyist's venomous snakes may lead to jail
CHATTANOOGA, Tenn. Chuck Hurd says he has been "hooked on venom" for years, a love for snakes that began as a boy when he collected them on his family farm and evolved into a profitable hobby. It never led him to trouble with the law until an acquaintance died from a copperhead bite.
The 38-year-old collector, dealer and lecturer - whose displays and presentations on venomous snakes have led him to exotic animal shows and even scout meetings - has not been charged in the man's death.
However, Tennessee wildlife authorities found him traveling with a collection of serpents and filed 48 misdemeanor charges that could send him to jail.
Wade Westbrook died after being bitten Jan. 29 at his home in East Ridge, a Chattanooga suburb, while examining a copperhead. Hurd, an enthusiast from Gate City, Va., said he had nothing to do with Westbrook's fatal bite. Authorities said they confiscated 12 live poisonous snakes and a cooler containing dozens of frozen dead snakes belonging to Hurd, charging him with possession and importation of poisonous wildlife and other misdemeanor counts.
It's legal to have such snakes in some neighboring states, but not Tennessee. Hurd said his arrest stemmed from "mass hysteria" in East Ridge after Westbrook died.
"When they arrested me they were confident they were going to prove that Wade got the snake from me," Hurd said. However, he said he did not give the deadly snake to Westbrook, who Hurd said was an acquaintance who shared his hobby but was not a friend.
Hurd is free on bond. Each misdemeanor charge carries a maximum penalty of up to a year in jail.
Westbrook was bitten supposedly while trying to determine the snake's sex. Copperhead bites rarely are fatal - in fact, friends said it wasn't the first time Westbrook had been bitten by one. But doctors said a previous bite may have caused Westbrook to have a severe allergic reaction.
No one has been charged in the man's death, though authorities have said their investigation could stretch into other states.
Hurd said he began his hobby catching snakes as a child, and years later discovered a vast network of people who shared his passion. He said he graduated from the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga, spent time as a school teacher and car salesman, and for now is unemployed, focused on his income-generating reptile demonstrations.
His website shows photos of Hurd handling a massive python and other reptiles. He has links to several dozen instructional videos on feeding and caring for venomous snakes, his snake removal services and a free online Bible.
The site also encourages calling U.S. senators to oppose a ban on the transport of boas and pythons across state lines. His Facebook page describes his own struggle to recover from a bite by an eastern diamondback rattlesnake.
On Hurd's website is a quote he attributes to himself: "Snakes inherently command the utmost respect, which in turn begets fear from the ignorant. The only good snake is a live snake. Performing, to the best of its ability, the purpose intended by all mighty God through his supreme design of nature."
