Vince Johnson - Rivals
He flipped to Cal from us
Sucks but these are the breaks of being ISU. Your recruits have multiple reasons to pick worse programs than ISU, and there are few BCS programs worse.
I thought this guy may be good. Parts of Cali are still under recruited compared to much of the country.
Well, at least this staff continues to show they know how to evaluate.

when we "filled" our class a month ago i though to self....self, only bad things are coming in the month of January for this recruiting class. we can only be poached at this point, not the other way around".
hopefully cpr has some recruits on the back burner and was anticipating some fallout/deflections. real bummer. guess i can't blame a recruit. take an offer and wait for a better one. why wouldn't you? coaches leave schools in a heartbeat and play the system. why shouldn't recruits?
this one doesnt hurt quite so bad since we still have a good amount of o-lineman commited, as long as the rest of them stay with us
Hoof hearted
Evidently he wanted to play a bit closer to home in a weaker conference. No prob. Better that these guys change their mind before signing day if they are not "All In" IMO.
The positive about all this is that other schools actually "want" our recruits. When all is said and done, we will have a good solid class that fills a lot of needs and has some good potential.
When is signing day?

Maybe Ryan Glenn signs for 2013 instead of gray shirting.
That lousy bowl performance did not help us at all when recruits make these decisions. You think he "wants to be closer to home" if he committed to not Bama or A&M, but even Florida State, Texas, or Louisville?

Think this may be more of a function of us gaining Campos. You have to ask yourself, would you rather we kept Johnson & not had Campos, or have what happened occur. V Johnson was able to find a D-1 school in his homestate so he switched. Campos did the same thing in changing to us. This we should all be able to accept.
I will take a Campos, Curtis, Homa, Severs, & Glenn OL class all day, any day.

Currently developing a web application and need access to users inbox from a specific email address. I have been testing this with my own email and the information that is returned doesn't contain the actual message. I read ZCS databases only contain the metadata so does that mean you can't receive the entire message?
I started creating a zimlet to possibly get around this issue but am having issues with it creating/using files contained on a separate server (although I am pretty sure this is possible and I am doing something incorrectly). So it appears the best way to go about this is through the REST API but with the lack of full messages perhaps it is impossible? Thank you in advance for any information.

In the midst of a migration, and trying to set up a catchall for all of our domains.
I've put the list of domains (around 50) in a file called domain.txt, and then I'm running the following:

echo $each
zmprov ma firstname.lastname@example.com zimbraMailCatchAllAddress "@$each"
I've tried it both with and without the quotes around "@$each"
This doesn't not seem to take hold...no error or success message is given. I then try to run it manually from the command line, like:
zmprov ma email@example.com zimbraMailCatchAllAddress @onedomain.com
Still no output, and I'm still getting bounces from various address. The bounce I get is:

ST. PETERSBURG, FLORIDA -- It's front and center on what may be the country's biggest website.
On espn.com, a single Rays fan surrounded by empty seats.
The article suggests baseball won't work in Tampa Bay, regardless of where the stadium sits.
But that's not what has Rays fans upset.
To illustrate Tropicana Field's attendance troubles, ESPN reportedly used a photo from a late-season 2004 Devil Rays game, as a hurricane was threatening the Bay area.
A second photo is said to be from a team practice in 2008, on a day no game was scheduled.
"I think that they're choosing the times of their pictures for their benefit," said Rays fan Cindy Brauer.
J.P. Peterson, host of "Happy Hour" weekdays from 3-6 on 1010 Sports Radio, says it's typical bias against the team.
"When you are driving an agenda, you want to use pictures that are going to represent what you are talking about, but clearly it was unfair," he said.
Peterson, as well as many Rays fan, also question how you can claim baseball won't work in Tampa Bay if you don't try it anywhere but Tropicana Field.
"We've got to do it right here in Tampa Bay before we decide that it doesn't work," Peterson said, "we have a stadium that's clearly the worst located in the history of sports."
There are plenty of fans who believe there is enough interest to support baseball in this market.
"We have a huge fan base in this area. If you look at the TV ratings, you'll see that there's a lot of people paying attention to the Rays," said Rays fan John Dyhrberg.
We reached out to ESPN for comment on why those particular photos were used, but had not received a response as of 5 p.m.
The pictures have since been taken down from the website.

Video: Dr. Beverly Hall received over $580K in bonuses
(Information provided by Atlanta Public Schools)
ATLANTA -- Former Atlanta Public Schools Superintendent Dr. Beverly Hall took home more than a half-million dollars in "performance" pay between 1999 and 2009, according to records obtained by 11Alive News' Center for Investigative Action.
However, getting that money back could cost more than it's worth. There's been talk among Atlanta Public School Board members about trying to get the bonus money back, in light of the cheating scandal.
However, after receiving a copy of her latest contract, we discovered that may not be possible because of an indemnity clause which covers both damages and legal fees.
Employment contract attorney Matt Billips told 11Alive's Center for Investigative Action that Hall's legal costs to defend herself, against a civil action by the Board, could be in excess of $1 million, which the board would have to pay.
"If they recover the $580,000, she pays it to them and they have to pay it back to her because they're indemnifying her. They're not just indemnifying her for the cost of the defense, they're indemnifying her for any damages," Billips said.
See Clause 11 in Hall's Employment Contract.
COMPLETE COVERAGE: Atlanta Public Schools CRCT Cheating Investigation
Figures released by APS show Hall earned $581,860.82 between the 1999 and 2009. Hall did not take a bonus in 2009-2010.
"The amount was tied in part to performance targets set for the district, which are tied in part to test scores," APS spokesman Keith Bromery told 11Alive News in an email.
Her most recently reported salary, including taxable benefits and everything in her superintendent's contract, was $415,293.44 for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2010, according to Georgia Department of Education spokesman Matt Cardoza.
In addition to bonuses, Hall received numerous awards and national attention for her hand in turning APS around.
"Under her leadership, standardized test scores have risen, aging facilities have been renovated and a new blueprint for business operations is being implemented," her official APS superintendent biography said before she retired.
In the weeks since, a state investigation has implicated Hall in a web of cheating on state standardized tests at 44 APS schools.
COMPLETE COVERAGE: CRCT Cheating Investigation
"Dr. Hall either knew or should have known cheating and other misconduct was occurring in the APS system," the state report said.
"Dr. Hall stood to financially gain based on whether the district met targets," the investigation report said. "Over the years, she received tens of thousands of dollars based on the reported CRCT results."
The report completed by the Office of the Governor's Special Investigators into cheating on the Criterion Reference Competency Test alleges that teachers were often pressured into meeting "targets" of achievement.
Teachers interviewed during the investigation said targets were often set at unreasonable levels and failure to meet those targets resulted in professional humiliation and job termination. "Fear of termination and public ridicule in faculty and principals meetings drove numerous educators to cross ethical lines," the report said. "Further, because targets rose annually, teachers found it increasingly difficult to achieve them."
"Dr. Hall and her senior cabinet accepted accolades when those below them performed well, but they wanted none of the burdens of failure," the report added.
"We deny that Dr. Hall has engaged in any intentional wrongdoing whatsoever," Hall's lawyer said on her behalf. "She most definitely did not know of any widespread cheating on the CRCT in 2009 or any other year."
RELATED: How much did Dr. Hall know about the cheating?
MORE: New Jersey educator said Hall was "ruthless"
In a statement following the report's release, Hall said "Cheating on the CRCT in 2009 or earlier by no means undermines the clear indication of improvement shown by the annual testing of all segments of our student population as part of the Trial Urban District Assessment (TUDA) performed and monitored independently by agents of the federal government's National Assessment of Education Progress (NAEP)."

Today, Dr. Dre briefly called into Big Boy's Neighborhood show, the syndicated radio program produced by Los Angeles, California's Power 106. Dre's call was relevant to the show, as the Aftermath Entertainment founder has appointed Big Boy's co-host Fuzzy Fantabulous to work on a new Beats By Dre-related project.
While Dre was slim on details, he did offer some, "The most I can say right now is that it's a music subscription service. That's the most I can say right now." It is unclear what Fuzzy's role will be within this new Beats By Dre division or product. The longtime Big Boy's Neighborhood personality detailed the company as merely, "A Beats Music service we're about to launch." Today marks Fuzzy's last day on the show's staff.
For fans of his music, Dre did briefly update a few items. He confirmed that Aftermath star Eminem is wrapping his upcoming album. "[Eminem] is finishing up his project," said Dre. Without mentioning the Detox album, Dre did allude that he was approaching his work differently. "For me, I've just got inspired to go in the studio again," admitted the N.W.A. member-turned-mogul. Last year, Dre and his label released Kendrick Lamar's good kid, m.A.A.d city, in addition to his production for Xzibit, Alicia Keys and 50 Cent. Pointing out that he's approaching the 30-year mark, Dre closed in saying, "Music is my first love, and I'm gonna continue to do that as long as I can."
Dre's first group, World Class Wreckin' Cru released "Surgery" around 1984, marking the longtime deejay's first foray into recording.

Educational Leadership
Make a difference. Take the lead in educational innovation.
No Child Left Behind. Outcome-based education. Teacher merit pay. America's educational landscape is one of perpetual scrutiny and change. And factors like shifting legislation and evolving student requirements only underscore the growing importance of skillful school leadership. Today's educators must go beyond simply keeping up with major issues to rolling up their sleeves and getting involved. Only then can they truly promote and affect positive change.
Are you ready to take a more active role in the pursuit of educational excellence? You can by pursuing a program in Educational Leadership from Bridgewater State University. Our programs can provide you with the knowledge and skills you need to champion student achievement and educational enrichment.
Our Educational Leadership programs will introduce you to leadership theories and practices, focusing on the importance of team building, decision making, problem-solving and strategic planning. You will be prepared to support student learning and the continuous improvement of systems that make learning possible. Emphasis is placed on the relationships between curriculum and instructional development, supervision of instruction, professional development and organizational development. Our programs for Initial Licensure are designed to prepare students for the following positions in school administration:
- School Principal/Assistant Principal: Grades PreK-6, 5-8, or 9-12
- Supervisor/Director: all levels
- School Business Administrator: all levels
- Administrator of Special Education: all levels (Master's degree required for entry)
- Superintendent/Assistant Superintendent: all levels (Master's degree required for entry)
LEAD Program
The Accelerated School Administrator Licensure Program in Educational Leadership, known as the LEAD Program, provides a "fast track" for students to be endorsed for an administrative license after completing 18 course credits and a practicum experience of 6 credits. Students will be introduced to leadership theories as they are applied to the educational setting, the nature of organizations, and key leadership skills such as decision-making, team building, empowering others and fostering collaboration in reforming schools. The LEAD Program is offered as a Postbaccalaureate Program, or for candidates already holding a Master's Degree, as a Postmaster's Program.
Master of Education (MEd) in Educational Leadership (Initial Licensure)
The MEd in Educational Leadership is a professional degree program designed to prepare you as an educational leader. The 36-credit-hour curriculum emphasizes both theory and practice in the preparation of school administrators, supervisors and principals. One of only 42 nationally accredited programs by the National Council for Accreditation of Teacher Education (NCATE), this program is comprised of a combination of coursework and practica that follows an integrated approach to understanding the forces of leadership necessary for effective schooling. This program is available on the main campus, as well as at select off-campus locations and via online.
Certificate of Advanced Graduate Study (CAGS) in Educational Leadership (Initial Licensure)
The CAGS in Educational Leadership is designed for educators holding a master's degree who are interested in promoting effective practice and managing change wisely in their educational communities and professional lives. A 39-credit curriculum balances content and pedagogical knowledge, focusing on building a basic understanding of the institutional, legal, fiscal and external political perspectives of education, as well as the technical and organizational systems that determine how those contexts affect teaching and learning. The program imparts the critical skills you need to lead educational initiatives, analyze and prioritize issues and build teams for continuous improvements in teaching and learning.
Bridgewater's Educational Leadership programs for Initial Licensure meet NCATE accreditation and are approved for certification by the Massachusetts Department of Elementary and Secondary Education, with reciprocity in signatory states under the Interstate Certification Compact.
Non-Licensure Programs
Students who are not seeking administrator licensure with the Massachusetts Department of Elementary and Secondary Education may pursue either the MEd or the CAGS program as a non-licensure option. Our non-licensure programs are designed for students seeking further study in leadership for career growth. Students will be encouraged to take educational initiatives by encouraging innovation, will be trained to analyze and prioritize problems by acquiring and interpreting key information, and will be enabled to expand learning opportunities for all constituencies by having and advocating a need to be a lifelong learner.
Bridgewater State University's long history of close collaboration with regional school systems and its tradition of leadership in areas such as special education, literacy education, teacher mentoring and professional development contribute to the depth and strength of its educational leadership programs.
"Faculty members are committed to helping students achieve their goals. Bridgewater's educational leadership program enrolls beginning teachers, career changers and aspiring school administrators. Students can work full-time and attend classes after 4 PM or online. Nine out of 10 faculty in the program have held positions in public schools. This is a major strength."

WASHINGTON (WUSA) -- A former doctor of a DC jail pled guilty on Tuesday to a felony charge of sexually assaulting an inmate.
According to court documents, Lewis Jackson, 36, of Atlanta, Ga., pled guilty on Tuesday in DC Superior Court to one count of second-degree sexuals abuse. He will be sentenced later this year by the Honorable Herbert B. Dixon, Jr. Jackson faces a statutory maximum of 20 years in prison.
Court documents stated that Jackson was working at the D.C. Jail as a medical doctor when he sexually assaulted the victim, who was then an inmate, and went to Jackson for medical care. The victim immediately reported the matter to authorities at the D.C. Jail.
Officials say Jackson's indictment was secured in 2012 after the government found DNA evidence.Officials also say that weeks after the indictment in DC, Jackson was indicted for similiar crimes in federal court in Atlanta when he worked at the federal penitentiary and sexually abused three inmates in 2011.
According to court documents, Jackson will be sentenced in Atlanta on Feb. 7, 2013. His sentencing in the District of Columbia will be scheduled after those proceedings.

Take the .300 win mag. You won't be sorry. That is what I used and it turned into a 80 yard shot but could have been 400yds+.
I booked a dall sheep hunt and i was wondering which gun to take? I have a 308 win and a 300 win mag, both shoot sub moa. In most of the stories that i have read most shots are under 300yards. I never shot a sheep before and i am wondering what calibers are you useing and why.
Take the .300 win mag. You won't be sorry. That is what I used and it turned into a 80 yard shot but could have been 400yds+.
They both will do the job, I would consider which one you are more comfortable with, and going on a sheep hunt one might consider weight.
Both will kill a sheep Bo problem. I would do as stated above, whichever gun you are more comfortable with and if they are equal in that aspect the lighter of the 2.
my biggest fear is with my 300 blowing a huge hole in the cape. I've read a few stories where that has happened. That is something I DO NOT WANT!!!! I am shooting 168 berger through my 308 and 185 bergers through my 300.
I have shoot alot of deer with both at 300 plus yards and haven't had a problem with big holes but at yards under that I'm a little worried about my 300.
I have used Bergers on a few critters, and they haven't done much cape damage.
That said, if cape damage concerns are a top priority, I would load up some Barnes TTSX. I have had good luck getting them to shoot.
Your .308 should be plenty of rifle, on the other hand I don't think you will have a problem with the .300. BB gave you some good advice, on selecting another bullet. Take the gun you are most familiar with would be my advice.
My family has killed about 10 rams, 9 were with a .270, and one was with a .300 WSM. Most shots were 200 yards, but sometimes you do get in a situation where you are on one ridge, the sheep are on the opposite ridge, and the only option is to shoot across the basin.
distance on either gun isn't much concern both will shoot past 600 easy. thanks everyone for the info. I am thinking that the 308 is the way to go, it is a little lighter.
By the way, if you look for the thread titled, "Most versatile caliber for North America?" under the General Hunting section, you will find a comparison I did between Barnes and Bergers using a couple unlucky foxes as the examples.

In the piece reporting on a family's lawsuit claiming damages caused by bad air quality (August 20th, page 1), I was struck by the comments of an attorney for Marathon Oil after the case was dismissed.
He concluded that because the plaintiffs received royalties from their oil and gas lease, "They are more in the oil business than I am."
His remarks seem to imply that if someone is benefitting financially from oil and gas extraction, they should not complain.
I totally disagree.
Health is not something that can be traded away or exchanged for money. The air we breathe is a commons and must be protected for the health of all who live and breathe over the Eagle Ford.

WASHINGTON (WUSA9) -- A judge declared that the Jason Scott murder case is a mistrial, authorities said.
According to the Office of the State's Attorney, a detective was on stand and declared that Scott was allegedly involved in multiple home invasions but only one home invasion was admissible per the Honorable Michael Whalen's earlier ruling.
Judge Whalen said the declaration would prejudice the jury and scheduled for a re-trial. The new jury will be chosen on Oct. 15, the State's Attorney Communications Director John Erzen said. The start date of the new trial will begin on Oct. 21.
Jason Scott is charged with killing Delores Dewitt, a nurse, and her 20-year-old daughter, Ebony. The women's bodies were found inside a burning car in Largo in March 2009.
Scott, a former UPS worker, was already sentenced in January 2012 to 100 years in prison for dozens of armed home invasions and burglaries in Maryland. At that sentencing hearing, a federal judge told him he'd be remembered "as one of the foulest, most hated people" in the county.

WASHINGTON (AP) - Michael A. Brown will attempt to return to the D.C. Council, this time as a Democrat.
The independent was defeated in November by independent David Grosso.
The D.C. Board of Elections says Brown picked up nominating petitions Wednesday for a special election in April. He has three weeks to collect 3,000 signatures from registered District of Columbia voters in order to appear on the ballot.
Brown was elected in 2008 to a seat reserved for members of non-majority parties. Now there's another at-large seat open, the seat once occupied by Phil Mendelson. Mendelson is now D.C. Council Chairman and Brown has changed his registration back to the Democratic Party to run for the seat.
Brown is one of 14 possible candidates who have picked up petitions.

In the war against AIDS, the chief enemy these days is resistance. Two decades after the first drug, AZT, was approved, there are now 27 HIV medications in four classes, with a first-in-class-five integrase inhibitor due from Merck this fall and several new classes heading for the homestretch. The transformation of this deadly disease into a manageable condition in the developed world has been a stunning achievement—but one relentlessly eroded by the ever-evolving-and-mutating virus. "You've got these patients who did well and you're excited for them," veteran HIV doctor and researcher, Harvard's Jerome Groopman, told the Wall Street Journal last year. "Then you get back with them and they have 12 mutations. You're desperately searching. They're hanging on by a thread."
Year after year tens of thousands of patients in the United States, and countless more worldwide, come to the end of their treatment hope. While statistics vary widely, the average first-line, three-drug combo starts failing after about seven years, while HIV begins to break through second and third regimens after about four and a half and four years, respectively. A decade after the protease revolution literally raised thousands of Lazaruses from their deathbeds, the increasingly urgent need is not simply to disable the virus but to block or even reverse the process of resistance itself.
Joining the Resistance
Targeting resistance was the inspiration behind Tibotec. The biotech got its start in a "resistance lab" founded in 1994 by Belgian scientist-cum-entrepreneur Rudi Pauwels. Three years later, Paul Stoffels, an AIDS doctor who did ground-breaking work in Africa before switching tracks to concentrate on HIV R&D at Janssen, teamed up with Pauwels to divide the fast-growing firm into two entities, drugmaker Tibotec and Virco, which had developed the first-ever database of every possible HIV mutation followed by the first-ever diagnostic test for HIV resistance. Immediate demand for the test, which fingers the mutation pattern and drug susceptibility of a patient's virus, was huge because it turned the guesswork of a mortal treatment decision into an exact science.
"Rudi saw the far-reaching implications of resistance before many others," says Roger Pomerantz, MD, president, of Tibotec R&D and the global head of virology. "He and Paul realized that to be true innovators in HIV, they needed to focus on where the medical need would be in 10 or 15 years—and they were exactly right."

1. Whenever I launch the PST import wizard, I get a pop-up complaining about access to a windows registry entry: MSMapiApps. Is this normal?
Windows 7 Ultimate (64-bit), Outlook 2010 (32-bit).
2. We have a proxy in front of our cluster. The import wizard asks for the machine name and port in the first screen and then populates another port in the second screen. First port is 80/443, the second port is 7071. There is no mention of the second port (7071) in the documentation. What's this for? Why prompt for it?
In a cluster, the PROXY is at ports 80/443 but the mailstore (different URL) is where 7071 is. Currently, the PROXY does not proxy 7071.
We tried using the mailstore and 8443 in the first screen but this failed.
Using the PROXY, we find that we must change the port on the 2nd screen to 443 and it appears to work and yet we have import problems. The import quietly does not import things. Nothing mentioned in the log regarding skipping or errors.
Anyone use the import wizard in windows 7?
Anyone use the import wizard in a proxy'd cluster? What do you use for the URL, and the ports?

DAN ELLIOTT, Associated Press
CENTENNIAL, Colo. (AP) - Lawyers for the suspect in the Colorado theater shooting say he's not ready to enter a plea to charges that he killed 12 people and wounded 70.
James Holmes is due in court Friday to hear whether he has to stand trial for the shooting. If, as expected, a judge finds that there's enough evidence for a trial, he could be arraigned on more than 160 felony charges and required to enter a plea.
But Holmes' attorneys filed papers Thursday afternoon saying he was not ready to be arraigned. They're asking Judge William Sylvester to consider the hearing as only a routine pretrial hearing.
The defense lawyers did not explain why they want the delay.
A preliminary hearing to establish whether Holmes should stand trial for the attack ended Wednesday.

American Samoa
Sep 29, 2009
At 6:48 a.m., a magnitude 8.0 earthquake jolted residents awake and triggered a tsunami. Locals fled for higher ground as 40-foot waves crashed over the territory, washing away bridges, churches, and nearly 3,000 homes. The tsunami wreckage was so severe that September 29th was forever declared a public holiday.

Sprout: Easy to Assemble Kids Furniture
Store Profile
- Location: Online
- Specialty: Flat pack kids furniture made in the USA.
- Price range: ($$) Mid-Range
- Website: sprout-kids.com
Store History
Sprout children's furniture is designed to be more than just furniture; it's a medium of creativity, a medium of discovery. The play room or nursery becomes a stimulating environment where kids learn from and explore the world around them. Leonardo da Vinci said "Simplicity is the ultimate sophistication." It is this simplicity that Sprout strives to achieve in its modern kids furniture.
You may be familiar with the scene: you've come home with flat pack furniture for your child's room and banished them so they won't hear you swearing while you try to assemble it. There must be a better way! Maybe even a way that will let the kids get involved.
Clark Davis grew up around a cabinet shop, often spending time in his father's growing up. After a series of moves, and inspired by his childhood love of Legos, Clark came up with the concept for Sprout kids furniture. Requiring no hardware or tools, the chairs, tables and shelves from Sprout can be assembled with ease. You can even get your kids in on the fun.
Getting the kids involved with the assembly is actually the intention. It's part of Clark's effort to inspire kids with design and building – the way he was inspired by Legos and his parents' encouragement to tinker and explore. As Davis says…
Sprout's philosophy, play.think.grow, is based on the belief that we learn by interacting with our surroundings, so we should create surroundings that lend themselves to interacting with. To some furniture is a fixture. To us it is a toy. It is a way of interacting and learning.

this is always a hit at our parties! perfect crunch and flavor make it a win!
Delicious! Great salad for a hot day! For the Good Seasons dressing mix I used half canola/half sesame oil, rice vinegar and 1 T fish sauce for a more authentic Asian taste. I also only used 2 T sugar.
Just loved this recipe as did my husband. Made it EXACTLY as recipe directs, except cut sugar amt. in half, I didn't have to make it once to realize it would be too much for our taste. Also would like a bit more dressing next time, but that's easy. Thanks for a great receipt, this one is a keeper.

Columbus, OH (Sports Network) - While the Columbus Blue Jackets were able to
extend one streak, they still couldn't prevent another from continuing.
Patrick Kane came through with the deciding goal in the shootout as the
Chicago Blackhawks registered their 11th consecutive victory over the Blue
Jackets with a 2-1 decision at Nationwide Arena.
Kane also assisted on Johnny Oduya's regulation score, while Jonathan Toews
also tallied during the shootout portion to help Chicago end a string of two
straight losses following a 24-game run of earning at least one point to begin
the season.
Corey Crawford came up with 29 saves before turning aside 2-of-3 Columbus
skaters in the shootout.
While Columbus fell despite a 39-save effort from Sergei Bobrovsky, it still
managed to notch a point for a franchise-record ninth straight contest
(5-0-4). Jack Johnson accounted for the Blue Jackets' lone marker.

Lt. Gov. Dalton, in consultation with Gov. Perdue, declared a State of Emergency Saturday for the entire state due to the expected winter storm. Executed under the Emergency Management Act, the declaration enables the governor or lieutenant governor to mobilize the necessary resources to respond to a storm.
The N.C. Division of Emergency Management is coordinating with local emergency agencies across the state.
The N.C. Department of Transportation earlier this week spread a brine solution on interstates and major US routes. Transportation crews in the western part of the state began clearing snow from the roads earlier this morning. Crews in the central and eastern parts of the state are on standby and will begin clearing roadways as needed.
Motorists are urged to remain safe distances behind snow plows and salt spreaders to give workers ample room.
The N.C. State Highway Patrol has more than 140 troopers on standby to help with weather-related calls in addition to the extra troopers that already scheduled to help the motoring public over the holiday weekend. National Guard also has placed some of its staff on standby to assist as needed.
The entire state is under a winter weather warning and much of North Carolina can expect three to six inches of snow between now and late Sunday evening. Some areas, such as the mountains and along the I-95 corridor, could see even more.
State highway patrol and emergency management officials are warning that travel could be treacherous later tonight and through much of Sunday. Falling nighttime temperatures could lead to patches of black ice again Monday and Tuesday morning.
"We know many people are traveling for the holidays and we want everyone to be extremely cautious," said state Emergency Management Director Doug Hoell. "Anyone who is thinking of driving during the next few days, should pay careful attention to the weather and traffic forecasts before heading out."
If you absolutely must travel, the North Carolina Highway Patrol recommends the following precautions:
Reduce your speed. Driving at the regular speed limit will reduce your ability to control the car if you begin to slide.
Leave plenty of room between you and other vehicles.
Bridges and overpasses accumulate ice first. Approach them with extreme caution and do not apply your brakes while on the bridge.
If you do begin to slide, take your foot off the gas and turn the steering wheel in the direction of the slide. Do not apply the brakes as that will cause further loss of control of the car.

FLYWATER ANGLING ADVENTURES Captain Steve Hollensed Orvis Endorsed Fly Fishing Guide FFF Master Certified Casting Instructor 903.546.6237 flywaterangling.com TEXOMA FISHING REPORT Current water temperature is about 86 degrees; lake level is 616 ASL; visibility is good to excellent. Striper fishing is very good to excellent now. Topwater action has been strong for almost two months now and should continue into early fall. Striper concentrations are now found on mid to main lake areas. Blitzes are occurring almost daily with the exceptions of a few Saturdays where weekend traffic has been a negative factor. (for whatever reason, Saturdays did not fly fish well in July) Best times are early morning to mid morning, however on some days we have found some excellent fishing in mid afternoon also. Poppers fished on the surface and streamers fished at or near the surface will catch lots of fish. The blitzing stripers are chasing shad that vary in size, so it pays to watch & observe the size of shad the fish are chasing. Another technique that has worked well this summer is casting integrated shooting heads like the Orvis Depth Charge line under the blitzing stripers or on deeper structure. When the blitzing stops, the schools often relate to deeper, topographic structure like humps, points, and ledges. Currently, we are fishing topwater patterns at first light around points and ledges for the bigger fish, then moving out to more open water to fish the blitzes as the light gets stronger. The Texoma striper population is in great shape. ODWC & TPWD reported that, based on the February 2012 biological surveys, a significant part of the population was between 16 inches & 24 inches, with 27% of the population over 20 inches long. This is very consistent with what we have observed on the water this year. Our state agencies are doing a great job of managing Lake Texoma. Smallmouth fishing is generally slow right now. However we had one of our best springs ever for smallmouth this year. April & May produced lots of smallmouth, with a good number of them over the 20 inch mark. Based on this, I am looking forward to a great fall smallmouth season...like last fall. This is a great time to fly fish Lake Texoma and get into the topwater action. I still have a few weekdays in August & the first part of September available. Half days work well during the summer. We are off the water before it gets very hot. Also, this is also a great time to book your preferred dates for this fall. October and November are filling up. Fall is a great time to fish the blitzes under the birds all day long. HOSTED TRIPS I have two weeks reserved at the Orvis Endorsed Blue Damsel Lodge near Missoula, MT to fish the spring Skwala hatch April 1-5 and April 8-12. Both weeks are already sold out with a standby list in the event of cancellations. If you would like to be on the standby list just let me know. I will be announcing the 2014 dates upon our return next April. This has proven to be a unique trip with great dry fly fishing. Also be watching for new hosted trips. Something different. FLY CASTING If you are an FFF Certified Casting Instructor mark your calendar for June 7 & June 8, 2013. Chuck Easterling and I are conducting a Continuing Education event in Mountain Home Arkansas with Joe Libeu as guest instructor. Joe is from the West Coast and brings a rich background of competitive casting and has vast amounts of successful teaching to his credit. You will not want to miss this one. GEAR TALK Well, this past week it came time to repower my Falcon Boat. (that is a nice way of saying that my old outboard was worn-out) This week I repowered with a new 200hp. SHO Yamaha four-stroke from Blackbeard Marine. The recent advancements that Yamaha has made in outboard technology is just unbelievable. The folks at Blackbeard Marine (580.564.9567) were great to work with and provided great service. I highly recommend them for both service and sales. Most of you know that I am a big fan of Orvis AR (Abrasion Resistant) leaders. After being discontinued for a short time I am so glad they are back. And this is the time of the year that I appreciate them the most...you can tie on a fly in the morning with a good knot and catch schooling stripers all morning or all day and not have to retie at all. And you will not lose a fish or fly. (although stripers do not have teeth, they do have a very abrasive, sandpaper-like, mouth) The AR leaders are even more important now for largemouth fishing and smallmouth fishing on Texoma too because of the zebra mussels on the rocks. If you are a warmwater fly fisher, you might want to try these leaders. Very often this year I have provided clients with Orvis Access rods. (both 7 & 8 weights) This was the first year that I have really put them to the test. They performed at the highest level. They were powerful for distance with big bugs and yet lightweight and enjoyable for lots of casting. Truly, these are great rods at a great price.

On this date in 1996 snow began to break out across the Metro Area either side of ten PM. This was the beginning of the Blizzard of '96. At the time this storm ranked in fourth place of all time snowstorms Downtown. It now follows the new number four which was last February's Super Bowl Blizzard and comes in at number five, 17.1" and 17.8" respectively at National.
On this date in 1998 Montreal experienced their worst ice storm in memory. The winter of 1997-1998 was a very mild winter that allowed warm air to move northward all the way into Canada. Freezing rain coated trees and power lines with up to an inch of ice bringing down trees and utility poles. At the height of the storm there were four million customers without power in Quebec and around Montreal alone. At the height of our ice storm back in mid January in 1999 five hundred thousand were without power. Many Canadians traveled to Burlington, Vermont to spend the night; somehow they still had power. This was a major ice storm for Maine as well.
On this date also in 1998 record warmth covered the East. Dulles hit a record of 66, with cloud cover, Beckley, WV hit 62 while Binghamton, NY topped out at 56. January of 1998 ended up as our seventh warmest on record. We went into February with less than an inch of snow for only the tenth time in 112 winters. We might well repeat that this year. Let's hope not ! The winter of 1997 - 1998 tied for the least snowfall Downtown with only .1" at National !

text: Here is the dumb question of the day. After a lengthy hiatus from bowhunting I decided to dust of my old bow and start shooting it. Most of my hunting is done from an elevated stand. I have a Keller pedulum sight and have lost the directions. My arrows are grouping extremely well but about 6 inches high at 20 yards. To lower my groups into the bullseye do I need to raise or lower my sight? I am trying to not lose too many arrows!! Thanks in advance for any help.

ATLANTA -- It's America's dark secret, and we want to shed light on it to help bring it to an end. The sexual exploitation of our children is rampant across the country and right here in Atlanta. It may be happening in your community.
We spent several nights on the streets in Metro Atlanta. We went to communities to the north, to the south and in between. What we witnessed was unbelievable and happening all around us. Children being bought and traded for sex.
"I started off prostituting at age 11," said one young woman who did not want to be identified. She asked us to call her 'Beautiful.'
Beautiful, like so many young women and men who are lured into prostitution, ran away from home.
"I met this guy, and he swore it could be a better life for me!" Beautiful told us.
It was a life of hell.
"I ended up sleeping with one of his friends. I didn't know it was for money in the beginning but after one friend become two friends and two friends became five friends and five friends became," Beautiful trails off, lost in thought.
She was trapped in a life of prostitution and stayed in it for 6 years until she managed to escape.
"This is a problem that is not reported, that the average people don't see, and when they hear about it, they are so disgusted. It's so distasteful they couldn't possibly think it's true. But it's true," said Ernie Allen with the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children.
"They can find 500 girls on the streets in Atlanta in any one given evening," Lisa Williams, with Living Water for Girls, told us when we sat down with her to discuss the problem. She found 'Beautiful' and helped get her off the streets.
"Before Miss Lisa Williams, I didn't really receive help," Beautiful said, her eyes welling up as she relayed what had happened to her.
She was traded from pimp to pimp and kept in hotel rooms while men were paraded through.
"You just feel filthy that these men are doing this to you," she said.
When she was 14, 'Beautiful' got into a car with a John and she thought her life would end.
"He held a screwdriver to my neck and basically raped me," she told us.
Every once in a while some girls are rescued. In June the FBI conducted a sweep across the nation including one in Gwinnett County where 3 juveniles, held in hotel rooms, were pulled to safety and 5 Johns were arrested. It was part of an ongoing sweep called the Innocence Lost National Initiative, which so far has resulted in more than 1000 convictions.
Changes in Georgia law now treat the woman forced into prostitution as victims and changes have also been made to beef up the laws to help prosecutors go after human traffickers with tougher penalties.
"For Atlanta SVU we've always treated these children as victims," said Sgt. Ernest Britton with the Atlanta Police Department's Special Victims Unit and Child Exploitation.
"They keep a lot of the underaged off the streets out of view because they know if we know about it, we'll be able to shut them down quickly," he said.
We witnessed it. We were tipped off to a location in North Atlanta about what appeared to be a legitimate business. We watched men pull up as very young girls were paraded out to their cars.
We've since reported what we saw to authorities.
"If they do not produce per se a certain amount of money, they risk being beaten," Sgt. Britton said.
"I've been beaten; I've been pistol whipped by pimps. Bottom line I didn't make quota," said 'Beautiful. As she talked, she began to tell us more and more graphic detail about her horrible experiences.
"I feel like I'm a survivor because I lived to tell my story," she said.
She's now working on getting a college education.
Fortunately, Atlanta has been making great strides in offering assistance. There are now many advocacy groups like Living Water for Girls and others who rescue young prostitutes from the streets and who work to help the FBI track known locations where kids are being sold.
"They are demanding our attention, they are our children and these are our daughters," said Williams who encourages young women and boys to escape and seek help.
Websites for agencies that offer assistance:
Living Water for Girls
Street GRACE in Atlanta
Project Safe Childhood
National Center for Missing and Exploited Children
Princess Night Solomon House (Rescue Shelter) 404-941-6024
If you see suspicious activity involving, children call Crime Stoppers 404-577-TIPS (8477)
