HARRIS COUNTY, Texas (KHOU) -- Both suspects in a shooting at a Houston-area community college are now in custody, according to a law enforcement source.
Three people were shot after an argument between two men at Lone Star College System's North Harris County campus at around 1:30 p.m. EST. Our sister station KHOU reports both men pulled out guns during the argument and shot at each other. Two bystanders and at least one of the suspects were injured.
That suspect was taken to an area hospital handcuffed to a stretcher, but the other one got away.
Dozens of law officers searched the campus and surrounding
areas. Around 3:30 p.m. EST, the suspect turned himself in at Northwest
Medical Center, according to our source. He may have also been wounded.
Lone Star College student Brittany Mobley said she saw the whole thing happen.
"I saw two dudes basically get into an altercation and the dude that
shot... he basically got angry and started shooting the other guy," said
Mobley. "A lot of people heard a lot of shots."
Mobley said the suspect had the gun hidden in his clothes.
"Basically, I seen the dude that shot him and as soon as I heard the
bullets flying and the gun being fired off, then everyone started
running and it was a hint for me to start running as well," Mobley said.
Lloyd Overcash, a stringer with our news partner KHOU 11 News, saw one man brought out of the library on a stretcher. He was reportedly handcuffed to the stretcher, according to witnesses.
Mark Zaragosa, an EMT student, got some hands-on experience when he spotted two victims before police arrived.
"I actually had just come out of EMT class and I noticed that there
were two downed victims so I stopped to render assistance," Zaragosa
said. "The two people that I took care of had just minor injuries. One
gentleman had a gunshot to the knee and the [other] actually had an
entry wound to the lower buttocks area."
Two of the wounded victims were taken to Ben Taub Hospital in the Texas Medical Center.
Lone Star College is closed for the rest of the afternoon and evening, but students and faculty can return to pick up their cars and other belongings.
Harris County Sheriff Adrian Garcia tweeted that one person is in custody and "the investigation continues."

Dear All,
We are using Zimbra ( zcs-7.2.0 ) on Centos6.3 - both the server and the laptops people are using is Centos.
We have some 160 people using this and it goes without much trouble.
Now I have a user who reports having a LibreOffice file open with some text on it, and that text ending up somehow in a Zimbra mail.
My first idea was to disable the ctrl -v shortcut on his laptop, assuming he accidently copied this to the mail.
But as is shown in the attached screenshot, somehow the text - I blacked it out for privacy - ended up above the title on top.
Does anyone have a clue on how this could have happened?
Many thanks for anyone who can offer any advise
Greetings, J.

Ways To Increase A Carburetor Intake- High-Carb DietWritten by on May 1, 2009 Increasing Your Carb Intake The Fun Way!
Nothing says "hot rod" quite like multiple carb setups, just as, according to the owner of my local speed shop, nothing says "hot rodder" more than building engines for cars you don't yet own, and seeing as I purchased a bunch of rebuilt carburetors a while back that included a number of Rochester two-barrels, I figured it'd be neat to put together a tri-power setup for my next project. Except I didn't fancy the idea of running all three carburetors all the time and wanted the setup to work properly.
Small base (1 7/8x3-inch mounting pattern with 1 7/16-inch bores--there are later, larger bases but it's the small, early ones needed here) Rochester 2G-style carburetors aren't exactly the hardest to find, but genuine tri-power examples are. However, Speedway Motors offers a kit to convert regular Rochesters to operate as a tri-power, with the front and rear carbs converted to act as secondaries, the center carb working as the primary. This center carburetor retains all its carburetion systems, such as idle, main metering power, pump, and choke, while the secondaries contain only float, pump, and main metering systems. When using a progressive linkage such as the one that is available with the Speedway kit, the center carb operates during idle and part throttle while at low speed, which has incidental economy benefits, then all three carbs will operate at higher and full throttle.
Of course a tri-power is one of the more nostalgic induction setups you could employ, so what could be better than sticking to the theme and mounting the carburetors on an Edelbrock triple deuce intake, complete with front oil fill tube for that traditional look? It just so happens that Edelbrock lists the three-two intake for a small-block Chevy as part of its current product range, so no trawling the swap meets is necessary, unless that's your kick. I already had a 265ci Chevy small-block under the bench with finned valve covers and no breathers, so this setup was a natural. Now I just need a car to put it in. What did that guy at the speed shop say?
More Photos From This Article View Slideshow
With the exception of a trio of carbs, here's almost everything needed to convert to tri-power: the Speedway Motors conversion kit and progressive linkage and an Edelbrock triple deuce intake manifold. You'll still need air cleaners, a fuel distribution block, and fuel lines.Three Rochester 2G carburetors perched atop the new Edelbrock intake. Usually the center carb will have an automatic choke fitted, but as I already had these three manual choke carbs and rarely require a choke anyway in SoCal, the center carb will retain its manual choke.Here's what you get in the Speedway kit: new bases for the outer carbs, gaskets, a new throttle shaft and plates for the center carb, plugs, jets, a power valve and modified piston, idle tubes, hardware, and instructions. The kit is also available with or without a progressive linkage.I started with the secondary carbs by disconnecting the accelerator pump and choke linkages and removing the top, known as the air horn. My carbs had already been rebuilt (note new gaskets and accelerator pump) but now would be the perfect time to rebuild yours if needed.The power valve in the main center carb was replaced with this one supplied in the kit, while the main metering jets (the two shown behind the power valve) were replaced with kit-supplied ones, 0.056 inch in the center carb and 0.055 inch in the secondaries.The power valves in the secondary carbs were replaced with these "plugged" versions (Allen-headed bolts) from the kit (or can be filled with JB Weld or similar).On the secondary carbs, the power valve piston is no longer required. Speedway recommends grasping the piston with side-cutter pliers to extract it from the housing, though I clamped the end of the piston in a vise and pulled the housing free. The float and its hinge pin were first removed, though the float needle is still in its seat here. This was also removed.The chokes on the front and rear carbs are no longer required, as these carbs will act as secondaries. The choke plate must be removed first...
With the shaft removed, this circlip is removed, releasing the choke linkage and spring, which are also no longer needed. With the choke shaft and all associated parts removed, the holes in the housing can be plugged using chrome plugs supplied in the kit.New bases which contain new throttle shafts and plates were supplied for each of the secondary carbs and were simply swapped for the originals. These are 0.090 inch lower in height than the originals, but the difference is virtually undetectable once the three carbs are installed on the manifold.Before the housing was reassembled, the top section was inverted to reset the float level. With the float in the closed position, it should measure inch from the seam at the center of the float to the casting.With a new gasket installed (all gaskets required are supplied in the Speedway kit) the air horn could be refitted.The accelerator pump linkage (arrowed) may require rebending slightly to ensure full stroke is achieved, yet the throttle plates aren't held open. Don't forget to reinstall the clip on the lower end of the rod.With both secondary carbs rebuilt and modified, the center carb could be addressed. I removed the base from the housing and then removed the throttle plates.New throttle plates were provided, which was useful as one of mine was bent. As can be seen from the plate on the bench, the holes are offset, so ensure you fit them the correct way round, with the bevel on the plates in the correct position. Also, use thread locker on the throttle plate screws. You don't want them coming loose and dropping into the intake manifold!
Once it was removed from the old shaft, the linkage bracket simply fit over the end of the new shaft as shown and was secured with the bolt supplied using thread locker.The center carb required more work than the outer two, and the venturi cluster in the main body had to be removed......in order to access the idle jet tips. These were removed using pliers, the new tips installed by lightly tapping them into the venturi cluster before replacing it using a new gasket.As with the outer carbs, the power valve piston was removed, but on this carb it was replaced with a modified version, staking the edge of the piston with a punch to prevent it from falling out. The float level was reset as per the other carbs, then the carb was reassembled.The trio of modified carbs can now be installed on the intake manifold, though new studs and nuts will be needed. The gaskets are supplied in the Speedway kit.With the carbs mounted on the Edelbrock manifold, Speedway Motors' progressive linkage could be installed. This is the reason for the extended throttle shaft on the center carburetor, the linkage allowing the center carb to operate before the front and rear come into operation at part throttle. The Edelbrock C-357-B manifold is designed for 1955-86 262-400ci small-block Chevy motors and has a balanced 180-degree firing order port runner arrangement. It includes an exhaust gas heat riser and the facility for a front oil fill tube.

Love your planet. Love your world. Love yourself. During our visit with Lynchburg Grows, we will not only learn about organic, hydroponic and aqua gardening, but we will also make our own salad for lunch from fresh ingredients on site. To show a big Girl Scout thank-you to Lynchburg Grows and our community, we will be helping them with an on-site service project after lunch.
During another "Go Green" camp day, we will be joining the environmental educators from Lynchburg College's Claytor Nature Study Center. They will help us perform an on-site stream investigation and sensory exploration. You will absolutely love wearing hip waders and seining the creek for teeny-tiny water creatures! Then we will look at them under a magnifying glass, identify and classify them, and release them to return to their watery home in the creek.

Hi Guys,
I've been struggling to get the plugin to work for quite a while now. For me it simply doesn't work.
I download the 0.1.1 version of the plugin. I ran
./make intall
I ran it as a normal user, no plugin, no option to select a Zimbra account. I also tried the same as root still the same.
The plugin compiles, gets installed (I can see the files) but for some reason Evolution doesn't seem to pick up the plugin. I'm using Evolution 188.8.131.52 on Ubuntu 18.104.22.168. Anyone who can point me in the right direction?

I am wondering if it is possible to use just the WebMail server with existing mail servers (ie: custom/legacy e-mail servers, or even just M$ Exchange Server [without the zimbra colaboration server in between]).
I am presuming that this is not a drag-and-drop solution, that it would need a LOT of re-working, to use JUST the webMail server (essentially the pages that serve up the e-mail inbox interface to the client side) and have it talk to an existing/legacy e-mail server/system.
It seems like the webMail server is all/mostly Java/Tomcat, so a couple of questions here. Can the webMail server be installed on a different machine than the Zimbra Collaboration Suite? To further that question, can the webMail server be installed on an M$ box (with Tomcat) and be set up to talk to an existing/legacy e-mail server system ... either on M$ or Linux.
Essentially, we are interested in the webMail interface, but would like to incorporate this into an existing/legacy e-mail system. Can this be done, and if so, how much work would it take to get this done (presuming that we have competent java developers to throw at this)?

Testimony :: Hon. Christopher H. Smith
Co-Chairman - Helsinki Commission
Almost a year ago, the Helsinki Commission held a hearing on Uzbekistan. At that time, we heard testimony about the closed nature of Uzbek society. Some of the consequences now seem to be unfolding in the Fergana Valley.
After Georgia, Ukraine and Kyrgyzstan, we may have become used to largely peaceful transfers of power in former Soviet republics. Clearly, as we read about the ongoing situation in Andijon, it was too good to be true. It seems to me, after the revolutions in the former USSR over the last 18 months and the bloody confrontation last Friday in Uzbekistan, that all bets are off in that country. We have now witnessed the most lethal use of force unleashed by an OSCE participating State against protestors in the former Soviet space.
In March 2002, when President Karimov came to Washington to sign the Agreement on Strategic Cooperation with the United States, I participated in his meeting with the congressional leadership. During that conversation, he said a very interesting thing. Responding to expressions of gratitude from Members of Congress for Uzbekistan's cooperation against international terrorism, President Karimov countered that he should be grateful to the United States, for getting rid of the Taliban in neighboring Afghanistan. That, he explained, effectively ended the most serious security threat to Uzbekistan.
Yet, President Karimov never drew the appropriate conclusions from his own geopolitical premises. Instead of seeing the fall of the Taliban and their allies as an opportunity to loosen the state's grip on Uzbek society, he made gestures calculated to appease Western states calling for reform. For example, a few independent human rights groups were registered. Tashkent allowed the UN Rapporteur on Torture to visit the Uzbek penal system and some policemen who tortured detainees were themselves convicted and jailed.
But, Mr. Chairman, no fundamental changes have occurred. Though the UN Rapporteur concluded that torture was systemic in Uzbek jails and Tashkent drew up an action plan to combat torture, the practice continues. Last December's parliamentary election went much as did previous Uzbek elections -- even though Uzbek spokesmen and apologists proclaimed the participation of five government-created political parties to be major progress, the OSCE rightfully refused to send a full–fledged observer mission. No opposition parties were registered or allowed to take part. Individual members of opposition parties could not run, despite assurances from Uzbek officials that they would be able to do so.
Moreover, widespread religious persecution continues. The US Commission on International Religious Freedom recently recommended to Secretary of State Rice that Uzbekistan be designated a "country of particular concern" because of the severe, ongoing and egregious violations of religious freedom. I agree with this recommendation, as designating Uzbekistan would send a clear message that the United States will not tolerate the continued oppression of selected Muslims and other religious groups.
Today, almost 15 years after independence, Uzbekistan remains a police state. And President Karimov is confronting what I fear is only the beginning of a major challenge, largely of his own making. As we know, the US maintains a base in southern Uzbekistan. However, if peaceful protests spread throughout the country and Uzbek forces respond indiscriminately with deadly violence, the United States would be forced to reevaluate its strategic partnership with Uzbekistan.
Amidst all this gloom, I hope to hear some glimmer of good news from our witnesses. Absent that, I would settle for at least a wise policy recommendation.

Cpl. Matthew Ochs, a field radio operator with Headquarters Company, 3rd Marine Regiment, low crawls under some of the obstacles during a training exercise on the obstacle course at Boondocker Training Area aboard Marine Corps Base Hawaii, Feb. 25, 2014. The Marines were participating in Corporals Course and completed a case study that took them through several training exercises based off true scenarios Gunnery Sgt. Timothy C. Tardif experienced during Operation Iraqi Freedom, April 12, 2003. Three squad-sized teams participated in a leadership reaction course, and exercises at Boondocker Training Area to include the obstacle course and military operations on urban terrain facility and a 100-meter swim at the base pool. At the conclusion of the case study, the Marine gathered at Dewey Square to listen to Tardif explain the challenges he faced as a corporal on the battlefield and how he overcame them.

Novak Djokovic is hoping for a better Masters Cup this season than last when the Serb went 0-3 in round robin play. He's off to a great start: Nole defeated Juan Martin del Potro 7-5, 6-3 in his first match and will face Nikolay Davydenko next.
The 21-year old also debuted some new black + gold adidas duds especially made for Nole to wear at the Masters Cup: he's working the Edge Tee, Edge Bermuda, and some fantastic Barricades. The all black moment looks great on him and the gold give's the outfit something special. I love the fact the sports giant made great looking gear especially for Nole at a prestigious tourney like the Masters Cup.
Could it be this outfit, in addition to Ana Ivanovic's plum piece last week, is signaling a positive change in design direction and marketing for adidas?
We can only hope!

FASHION FIX: Nole grabs first Masters Cup win, goes black + gold for adidas
6 comments:
What?! No Federer loses to Simon, A-Rod falls, too?ReplyDelete
Well, alright, if that's how you're going to be...;)
Nole does look better, but will somebody please tell him, and all men, that black socks never work with shorts. They make the legs look silly.
I can't end this without speaking of Rafa and how much I miss him. I even dreamed of him over the weekend...

History of the 29th Division (Blue and Gray) 1917 - 1919
We have scanned the publication, "History of the 29th Division 'Blue and Gray' 1917 - 1919" and indexed it for your search. The work was prepared by Lt. Col. John A. Cutchins, assisted by Lt. Col. George Scott Stewart at the request of the Division Historical Committee. This is the official history of the Division in the World War.
This history, one of several such works compiled post World War I, summarizes the Division's activities in the war with descriptions of training, land covered and battles contested. It includes a good volume of photographs of every phase of the Division's experience from training to homecoming. It includes a list of casualties, citations issued, as well as a complete Divisional Roster.
We believe this work and those like it provide an excellent resource for family historians of the casual and serious kind to understand an important part of our ancestors' lives as they took part in the largest human event of its kind in history. We hope you find this resource useful and as fascinating as we did.
The scanned images of original pages, particularly those containing the casualties are somewhat large files which may take time to load. We have tried to make this text as navigable as possible. Please let us know if you have trouble.

T-Rex or Orion Atlas Pro AZ/EQ-G?

The slow motion is silky smooth and you can turn the knobs with two fingers, but if you must have motors just hang on a while and they should be available.
I already had the JMI motors and controller on my Voyager mount so I decided to remove and test them on the T-Rex just by holding them in place and they work perfectly. So now I need to create the mounting plates, which are obviously different from the Voyager. I talked to JMI and they said they could create the mounting plates for me but I would have to send them my mount and that isn't happening. So instead I am creating the mounting plates myself and when I am done I am going to send one of them to JMI so they can create them for other people. Other than the correct mounting plate the coupler that goes between the motor shaft and the mount shaft will need to be slightly different from the voyager since the shaft on the T-Rex and the shaft on the Voyager are different sizes. I will be talking with them again shortly about getting the right coupler for the T-Rex.

If you need/want go-to and tracking, the choice would seem obvious...
The options are limited Unk But the T-Rex at least has push-to and just looks soooo nice...

Have you had a look at the Desert Sky Astro DSV-3?
Hi Jim,
I had not considered this mount until you mentioned it. Curious, I went to their web site and found...a really nice piece of kit! Can I assume this is the one you picked up? The specs look good, have you had your TEC140 on board yet? My biggest concern would be the slo-motion controls - I would want to install longer ones since I doubt I could easily reach the knobs from behind my TEC. Definitely a mount worth considering, especially for the price

You also get the handle in the picture to move the scope around so you don't have to push on the telescope. Unfortunately the handle is grey not black. It does have a black foam grip at the end.
ADM dual saddle plate is standard.
The AT152 with rings, 2" diagonal, and the 31mm Nagler is about 28 lbs and the mount has no trouble with this. Vibration pads are not needed at all.

Is the Orion Atlas Pro AZ/EQ-G even available for actual order yet? I thought it was still aways down the road.

My intended use is for bi-annual dark sky trips where dependency on large batteries carries with it a host of related problems (i.e., the need for solar recharging gear, and the space commanded by a big battery to name two). Ideally it will be able to carry the TEC 140 and/or a C9/C9.25/Mewlon 210.
I'll provide a thorough evaluation once I've received the mounts.

Lane, great looking setup, but it looks like balance/tipping point could be an issue there. Is that the case? T-Rex'x are on sale right now 5% off for those who didn't know.
No problems at all. It is very stable even when turned so most of the OTA weight is positioned between the tripod legs.
My C11 and the AT 152 both work perfectly on this mount. To bad they did not make an optional counterweight bar for the other side, it could have easily been done and then you could put a C14 on this mount. It is built like a tank so I am sure it could handle the weight, but the balance would definitely be off. Anyway it achieves my goal of a totally quiet mount with slo-mo controls that can carry my biggest scopes and still have a very fast setup/takedown time. Being able to just fold it up and put in the carrying bag is a huge time saver.
I think the only bad thing I would say about this mount is that it cost to much.

FYI...now amended on the Orion web site to 05/02/2013 So what's with these guys, are we about to relive the Meade mount fiasco again? My attention has just focused down on the T-Rex with an honest hard look at the the DSV-3 as an alternative. I am inclining toward the T-Rex due to some recent experiments on motor control done by a fellow CNer...I really like the idea of a powered option. That with Sky Commander would pretty much fulfill my basic requirements.
Clear Skies,
Posted 17 February 2013 - 08:10 PM
I've gone full circle with GEM and Alt-Az mounts during the past year while I was waiting for my TEC 140 to be built - Atlas, G11, EQ-6 AZ, IEQ45, DM-6, T-Rex, Unistar Deluxe, DSV-3, Orion AZ, Nova Hitch, ES, M150, etc.
Assessing all the pros and cons, and based on smoothness, weight capacity, slow motion, quick slew, push to, encoder adaptation, durability, I came to the conclusion that the T-Rex would be the ideal mount for a TEC 140 and an eventual C11. In your case, since you already have an Atlas GEM, a T-Rex would be ideal.
Posted 18 February 2013 - 02:46 PM
I talked with JMI and they don't feel that enough people will buy the T-Rex to make it worth their while to create a specific motor solution for it.
You can still buy the train-n-track and you can order it with the correct motor shaft connectors for the T-Rex, but you will have to get a little sheet of aluminum from a hardware store to make your own mounting brackets. They are really simple to make, just a pair of sheet metal cutters (tin snips) and a power drill is all you need. Maybe some black paint to make it look good. I am going to paint mine with black hammer textured paint.
I already have the JMI motors and I ordered the motor shaft connectors last Thursday. Just waiting for those to arrive to put the whole thing together.
Those little motor shaft connectors cost me $12.50 each. Seemed a bit pricey to me.

His to win
Campaign 2008 | Barack Obama trails in polling among evangelicals, but he hopes to take the upbeat message that made him the first black candidate for U.S. president on the road to winning pro-life converts and the White House
DENVER-One of the most unlikely characters at the Democratic National Convention might have been Abu Chowdhurj. On a hot afternoon near the heavily guarded gates of the Pepsi Center in downtown Denver, where convention-goers flocked to nightly sessions, Chowdhurj stood wedged between vendors hawking everything from T-shirts to teddy bears emblazoned with Sen. Barack Obama's image.
The middle-aged native of Bangladesh wore a plain suit with an American flag pin, and held up a white bumper sticker with bright red letters: "Rednecks for Obama."
Does Chowdhurj consider himself a redneck? "No, I'm a brown-neck," he told WORLD. But he sympathizes with the rural farmers near the small town where he owns a hotel in Missouri, and banded with a handful to take their political concerns to Denver. They're worried about things like gas prices and a faltering economy, Chowdhurj said, and they wanted to show that "rednecks like Obama too."
Chowdhurj was unique, but he wasn't alone. During the four-day convention that drew more than 70,000 people into downtown Denver, the crammed streets teemed with protesters and peddlers of causes ranging from wonkish to weird.
Thousands of self-proclaimed anarchists and war protesters marched several miles through town hoisting signs with slogans like: "Who Would Jesus Bomb?" and "Make Out, Not War."
Wesley Flowers, a homeless-rights activist from Portland, helped corral protesters through the streets and explained his helmet and body armor covered by a bright yellow vest: "The Denver police are trigger happy, and I have a heart murmur." (Police had clashed with about 300 protesters blocking traffic earlier in the week, spraying some with pepper spray and taking a few dozen into custody.)
Flowers told WORLD he was an Afghanistan war veteran and distrusts both Obama and Sen. John McCain's foreign policy. He suffers from post-traumatic stress syndrome, he said, and wants to spare others: "I can't sleep at night."
A few blocks away at the Colorado Convention Center, two animal-rights activists in pig suits carried signs reading: "Stop Global Warming: Tax Meat." Another demonstrator wore a full-body toilet suit and carried signs advocating conserving water.
The circus of daily antics drew plenty of attention, but inside the halls of the convention center a quieter act was unfolding: Democrats and Obama staffers were reaching out to a group of voters often also considered a sideshow and unlikely to support the party: evangelicals. With two months left in the race for the White House, Obama and McCain are both racing for religious conservatives, and so far McCain appears to lead. A recent Pew Forum study showed McCain leading Obama by 36 points among white evangelicals. That's about 7 points shy of President Bush's rating with the same group four years ago, but a considerable lead nonetheless.
Still, Obama's camp is determined to peel off at least some evangelical voters in an election that will likely be close. (The two candidates remain within a few points of each other in national polls.) Obama's campaign boasts a small staff devoted solely to religious issues, including Shaun Casey, a former minister in the Church of Christ and a Christian ethics professor at Wesley Theological Seminary.
When it comes to reaching evangelicals, Casey told WORLD it's been easy: "They come to me." Casey acknowledges many evangelicals are skeptical of Obama, but he says a slew of pastors, Christian colleges, and other evangelical groups are open: "My last several weeks have been a whirlwind of activity responding to evangelicals reaching out to me."
What's attracting some evangelicals is an unlikely issue: abortion. Democrats are touting a change to their platform this year that includes supporting women facing unplanned pregnancies: The new language speaks of reducing the need for abortions and pledges financial support and health care to expectant mothers in need.
Evangelical leaders like Jim Wallis, Tony Campolo, and Joel Hunter of Northland Church in Orlando helped craft the new language, and Hunter recently told reporters: "Pro-life voters of either party can now support Senator Obama on the basis that more lives will be saved than if they had just taken a moral stand hoping to overturn Roe v. Wade."
At a Democrats for Life forum in a tiny meeting room in the Monaco Hotel during the convention, Heath Shuler, a pro-life Democratic congressman from North Carolina, charged Republicans with touting pro-life rhetoric but not following up with help for mothers and children. Shuler said Republicans are pro-life "from conception to birth," and Democrats are pro-life "from birth to natural death."
Shuler and other pro-life congressmen, including Sen. Bob Casey, D-Pa., promoted the Pregnant Women's Support Act, a bill that would provide aid and services to pregnant women, including health care and adoption referrals.
Despite the new language, the party's revised platform retains its ardent support for legalized abortion, and even strengthens that stance. It declares that the party "strongly and unequivocally supports Roe v. Wade" and drops the former language that says: "Abortion should be safe, legal, and rare."
Obama adviser Casey rejects the notion that the new platform is more pro-abortion. "That's a Republican talking point," he told WORLD. But Michael Yaki, a Democratic platform director, told The Wall Street Journal: "We put a woman's right to choose in a lockbox, and strengthened the language significantly." Yaki added that "either side could put their own moral gloss on the language."
Inside the convention, pro-abortion supporters applauded efforts to help pregnant women but vigorously defended legalized abortion, making clear that any softening on abortion was limited.
Susan Brooks, a Chicago Theological Seminary professor, looked intense as she stood in front of a row of dark blue signs reading "Pro-family, Pro-Obama." Brooks had been tapped to advocate a pro-abortion position at a panel discussion about faith and politics led by left-leaning evangelical Jim Wallis, and she told the group: "I've been a pastor for 35 years, and I'm in favor of choice."
Her voice quickly sharpened: "What kind of choice is it when a woman has to choose between terminating a pregnancy or being poor?" she asked. "What kind of choice is it if you don't have prenatal care?"
As applause and "amens" rose from the audience, so did two men a few rows from the front. "Is a baby a choice?" shouted one. "Isn't abortion murder?" asked the second man. After a convention staffer with a nervous smile escorted the men from the room, Brooks declared: "This is an example of not finding common ground."
(It was also an example of other confrontations that marked each day of the convention: Pro-life activist Randall Terry and other activists held large banners plastered with graphic pictures of unborn children and the slogan: "A vote for Obama is a vote for dead children." They screamed with bullhorns at angry passersby and continued shouting even when one man offered to listen if they would only talk.)
Back in the hall, not all pro-abortion supporters were pleased with the party's new language. Marjorie Signer of the Religious Coalition for Reproductive Choice bristled when she heard talk about reducing the number of abortions. Democrats should instead exclusively talk about reducing "the need" for abortion, she said.
It's a distinction she thinks is critical to retaining legalized abortion. After all, she pointed out, "You could reduce the number of abortions right now by closing down the clinics and forcing women to have children they don't want."
Wallis told WORLD that evangelicals should work with Democrats: "We've got to find a way to reduce abortions while the legal debate goes on and on." He also charged Republicans with doing too little: "If I'm an unborn child and I want the support of the far right, I better stay unborn as long as possible. Because once I'm born, I'm off the screen."
A day later, about 10 miles southeast of the convention center, Martha Vaughan sat in a cozy room with a Hispanic client at the Colorado Pregnancy Care Center. The care center is one of eight similar ministries to women with crisis pregnancies in the greater Denver area.
The Spanish-speaking client is married with a 1-year-old daughter and comes to the care center for assistance with clothing and other resources. Like other clients, she earns "mommy money" in the "Earn While You Learn" program to purchase items like baby clothes, blankets, and diapers from the center's Pitter Patter Shop of donated and new items.
Vaughan, a bilingual staff member, asks the client about her family and learns that her husband recently lost his construction job. Vaughan gives her information on local food banks and asks about other needs. She also encourages her to take English classes and offers a list of free programs.
The center tailors educational classes to client's needs, including nutrition, infant care, and single motherhood, as well as Bible studies and other Christian-based counsel.
After watching a short video, Vaughan prays with her client and accompanies the young mother to browse the small shop. The client picks out a pack of diapers, a few toys, a denim jumper, and a pink dress with tiny roses.
Director Wendy Stone says the center serves about 60-65 clients a month and talks with young women about abortion alternatives and the resources available during and after pregnancy: "Our position is that abortion is never a good option, no matter what the circumstances."
Obama adviser Casey acknowledges that evangelical groups offer "a whole set of vibrant ministries" to pregnant women. But he contends the government should be more involved, and that Republicans haven't done enough to help.
Over in the 20,000-seat Pepsi Center, abortion was only a passing theme in nightly televised meetings. The presidents of Planned Parenthood and the National Abortion Rights Action League (NARAL) praised Obama for his pro-abortion voting record.
The senator has pledged that he would protect Roe v. Wade and sign the Freedom of Choice Act, a bill that could negate many state restrictions on abortions. (The legislation has never passed Congress.) The senator also co-sponsored an amendment to repeal the Mexico City policy, which prohibits federal funding for organizations that promote or perform abortions overseas.
But most of those details were lost in the frenzy of the convention. Instead, attendees listened with rapt attention to speakers like Sen. Hillary Clinton, who offered a rousing tribute to feminism and her own candidacy and praised Obama in the context of her own achievements.
Clinton also praised Michelle Obama, who presented a decidedly softer image during her primetime speech, earnestly speaking about her commitment to her children and "the man I fell in love with." A day later, Mrs. Obama appeared with Clinton and House Speaker Nancy Pelosi at a gala for EMILY's list, a pro-abortion women's group.
Even with overflow crowds and hour-long lines to pass through security at the Pepsi Center, the whole week seemed like an appetizer
to the main course everyone was waiting for: Obama's speech before 75,000 people in Invesco Field. As droves of police officers patrolled the streets in groups of 12 or more, clad in helmets, shields, and armored vests, Obama supporters donned buttons, T-shirts, hats, jewelry, and scads of other gear packed on every street corner, including a white shirt with bright blue letters that read: "The only truth that stands is Obama."

High-Tensile: An All-Win Deal
A drunk driver plows into a fence at high speed. When he comes to, he can't understand how he and the car are inside a farmer's fenced field. The fence is intact until police investigators cut the wire to remove the car.
In Dover, Pennsylvania, a car hit an icy patch of road along a curve and skidded into a fence. Acting like a giant rubber band, the fence wire snapped the car onto the opposite bank. The car was totaled, but damage to the fence was minor: only a few pulled staples. The wire itself was fine.
A freight train loaded with coal derailed a few years ago on Kencove Farms in Blairsville, Pennsylvania. When the insurance claims assessor arrived he couldn't believe his eyes: the track and freight cars were badly damaged and coal was scattered over much of the field, but the fence wire was not broken!
Though these stories seem far-fetched, they are all true. High-tensile fences are the "stars" of each account.
Charles Kendall, owner of Kencove Farms, is a soft-spoken man not easily excited; that is, not until he begins to talk about high-tensile fencing. "When I took over my parents' farm, one of my first projects was to build a 'good' fence where I intended to pasture my heifers, Even with barbed wire fencing, those heifers always seemed to think it was worth the pain and effort to get to the corn and alfalfa crops on the other side. Electric wire was helpful, but required constant checking--cattle were always pushing it onto the barbed wire where it would get caught and short out the fence. After only five years, my barbed wire fence was falling apart so badly from rust that it was useless. What a disaster!
"I had read the claims of high-tensile fencing and decided to test for myself whether these were true or not. My first high-tensile fence, built in 1979, was a three-wire electrified fence for cows and heifers. Costs were kept to a minimum by using pressure-treated posts at intervals of 50 feet. The 12½ gauge high-tensile wire had greater strength and resilience than any other farm fencing I had tried. Though occasionally the heifers did go through the fence when the electricity was off for long periods, still they didn't damage the wire.
"Next I replaced the barbed wire 'disaster' with a seven strand high-tensile fence. This gave deer control and was more secure for my farm animals. Solid treated wood line posts were spaced 200 feet apart. Fiberglass posts were driven at 67-foot intervals. Between these, fiberglass spacers were clipped to the wire but not driven into the ground. All wires were insulated for electricity. Even with the electric off most of the time, this fence has been great.
"I have tested and proven high-tensile fencing is an all-win situation for farmers. It's stronger, longer lasting, and more economical than other types of fencing. A neighbor's cow and calf went up and down through a conventional fence. In two hours' time, they had torn down 40 acres of fence. That just wouldn't have happened with high-tensile fence. They may have torn out a few staples, but they could not have snapped the wire."
Though high-tensile fencing has been used on the vast sheep and cattle ranches in Australia and New Zealand for over 30 years, it has only recently come to the attention of the American farmer. High-tensile fences are made with smooth wire pulled to an initial tension of 250 pounds. The wire is held on fence posts with staples. These staples are driven at a slight angle off of vertical so the slash cut points steer the staple into different grains of the wood. The staples are not driven tight against the wire, but instead allow the wire to move during tensioning, temperature changes, or livestock pressure.
Today's high prices have forced farmers to look for ways to cut costs and seek greater value for their money. Farmers who have tried high-tensile smooth-wire fencing have found it to be the answer to their fencing needs.
One of the major causes of wire fence failure is exceeding the elasticity of the wire. High-tensile wire can withstand over 1,700 pounds (Kencove 210 wire) of pull before breaking--nearly twice that of two-ply barbed wire. A tree falling on a high-tensile fence would only have to be removed by the farmer--the fence wires would be unharmed. But with conventional fencing, it would force the farmer into a major repair job.
Another source of fence failure is rusting. With type III galvanizing, a high-tensile wire fence should last over 30 years in Pennsylvania, outliving three conventional fences. Kendall said, "The highest cost of any fence is labor. When you consider the savings of not having to replace fences for that period of time, who can resist high-tensile fencing?"
"An extra plus is the zinc coating on the wire turns white as it ages, instead of rusty brown, making it very attractive as well as long-lasting," added Kendall. "When you have an expensive animal, you want an attractive expensive-looking fence. That helps sell your animals."
The cost, however, is low. "A basic no-frills 6 strand high-tensile fence can cost less than 13 cents per linear foot, with this fence, the farmer would provide his own tools and fence posts. Of course, some of the 'extras' like tension indicator springs are appealing and weren't even options with conventional fencing," said Kendall.
Farm wives like high-tensile fences because they are easy to install and maintain. Instead of nagging their husbands, some wives have built their own fences. The hardest part is driving the posts. The wire comes in 69-pound or 105 pounds coils. The coils are placed on a "spinning jenny" and the wire slides easily so it can be "walked" along the fence perimeters. The wire is then stapled onto the posts. Kendall says, "It has a high-tech look--evenly spaced parallel wires--that make you proud to say, 'I built that fence.'" According to Kendall, "With the right tools, high-tensile fences are not hard to build if directions are followed and experts are called when the fence builder has questions. Short cuts don't pay. If a farmer has tried high-tensile fencing and it isn't working, call an expert. He can save you hours of drudgery."
With high-tensile fencing there is greater safety for humans and animals. There are no barbs to damage hides or swollen udders and no broken bones when a contrary animal charges at the fence. Because of the elasticity of the wire, the animals bounce off.
High tensile fencing offers versatility--the fencing is tailored to the livestock and pasture needs of each individual farmer. There also is greater livestock restraint and predator protection. "A few years ago, the California sheep industry was being wiped out by coyotes. A 10-wire high-tensile fence built with electric on alternate wires controlled the coyotes, solving the problem." noted Kendall.
Kendall was so impressed with his high-tensile fences that he started gradually into the fencing business himself. Five years later, he sold off the cows and went into the business known as Kencove Farm Fence full-time. "Having grown up on a farm. I knew the fencing problems that the farmer needed to solve. I feel that I can help other farmers and enjoy doing this. I put myself in the individual farmer's position and try to find what is most economical according to the farmer's needs."
To keep prices as low as possible, Kendall seeks the best values on tools and fencing materials. As a result, he has traveled to various states in the United States as well as to South Africa, New Zealand, and Taiwan. He always is looking for better techniques, ways to make a good product even better.

Just learned about this. Ironsight, Inc. bills itself as "the world's foremost repair station for Weaver scopes". Supposedly, Ironsight bought all of the parts and remaining inventory of the Weaver El Paso scopes. They even have some new in the box old model scopes. Got this from a fellow hunter, who was trading in an old model Weaver on a new in the box old model K-6. Passing it along for what it is worth.

|Drumroll Please
|Written by Jes-c Brandt
Halloween hijinks
My being the resident parent in the elementary girls' house at a boarding school since last summer has created a—unique—environment.
Our household has developed all sorts of habits and traditions. On Saturdays we eat waffles. On Sundays we like breakfast burritos.
One girl gets into bed every night and shrieks "Socksies!" and I pull off her socks before she goes to sleep. We listen (and dance) to loads of Elvis, interspersed with Taylor Swift and Justin Bieber.
If they're taking their dear sweet time walking home, I can always persuade them to move a little faster by pretending to be a zombie, and some nights, they all want to be carried to their rooms like a sack of potatoes.
One of the strangest things in our house, however, is a figure known as Lady Brandt. Like most legends, it's hard to say exactly how the story of Lady Brandt was born. Last Christmas I became the proud owner of a pair of freakishly realistic vampire fangs.
I suppose one day I had a hankering to show them off, so I donned the teeth and crept down the hallway where the girls were playing. When I peeked around the corner and bared a bloodthirsty grin, my students just about lost their minds.
After a bit of exaggerated screaming and running away, their curiosity won out, and they sought out the strange being, looking for answers.
They wanted to know everything, so I did my best to spin up a quick story for them.
Lady Brandt is a vampire who is friends with Miss Brandt. In fact, they are roommates. She's pretty shy, and the sun burns her skin, so she doesn't come out much, which might explain why you have never seen her before.
Yes, Lady Brandt does look quite similar to Miss Brandt. We get that a lot. But there is a simple explanation: we do much of our shopping together and often go out to get our hair and nails done.
When asked if Lady Brandt eats people, I spoke in desperation. I had been trying so very hard to get the girls to obey one simple rule that they have to wear socks or slippers in the house. Horror stories of stepping on scorpions had done nothing to persuade them not to run around barefoot.
Without thinking, I blurted out that Lady Brandt hates bare feet, and if she ever sees them, she will bite them and suck their blood. They ran to their rooms, pushing and shoving, to get something on their feet, and Lady Brandt disappeared back into our apartment.
In the months since then, Lady Brandt has made many appearances, each time with a more elaborate costume. By now, she has short black hair and often wears dark eyeliner and a black trench coat.
As far as I can tell, most of the girls hover in a place between believing Lady Brandt is real and knowing that she's not. For one of my students, who is too bright for her own good, my extra attention to the detail of changing socks when I switched between characters was enough to convince her.
Last week, as Halloween approached, someone threw out the idea that Oct. 31 is Lady Brandt's birthday, and it stuck.
They begged me to have Lady Brandt wake them up Halloween morning, and I couldn't resist such an opportunity. In full costume, with the lights still off, I crept into the first room and greeted the girls in the scariest voice I could muster.
The screaming started, and those kids were out of bed faster than I even thought was possible. For those who were already acquainted with my alter ego, the fright was all in good fun. For the newer girls who had yet to meet our undead housemate, I saw legitimate terror in their eyes.
One of them couldn't take her eyes off me as she yelled for someone to go get Miss Brandt. I couldn't bring myself to be scary after seeing the look on her face, and I tried to convince her I was a nice, friendly vampire.
My attempt to converse scared her even more, and she called out again for Miss Brandt. Still trying to show her I was nice, I told her I would go get Miss Brandt right away. I ran back to my room, took off the wig, fangs and trench coat and proceeded to get the girls ready for school as usual.
Lady Brandt lived on for the remainder of her birthday, even playing a game of hide and seek in the dark and joining the girls for the evening devotions. The truth had to come out in the end for the sake of allaying fears and getting them to bed that night, but it sure was fun being Lady Brandt while it lasted.
