STEUBENVILLE - The man who gained control of a local Steubenville Big Red sports fan website said he did so to shed light on a local rape investigation involving two Steubenville High School student-athletes.
"I wanted to just get the word out," the man who said his name is Noah claimed. "The story sounded a bit shady, so I figured I would help."
The 22-year-old Virginia Beach, Va., resident agreed to an interview but asked that his last name not be used. His identity has been confirmed.

This picture was provided by "Noah," a Virginia Beach, Va., computer hacker.
The case involves two 16-year-olds who are charged with raping an underage girl after end-of-summer parties five months ago. The boys are football players at Steubenville High School. One of the teens also is charged with illegal use of a minor in nudity-oriented material, the result of pictures of the naked victim that investigators testified were attached to text messages allegedly sent from his cell phone. Attorneys for both defendants have denied the charges in court.
Visiting Juvenile Judge Thomas Lipps decided last week that the trial of the two will be held in open court March 13. He denied a motion for a change of venue.
On Dec. 23, the RollRedRoll.com website was compromised with a video and message posted from someone identifying himself as with "KnightSec" and also with "Anonymous" - an internationally known hacker-activist group.
After the site was compromised, the video and demands made went public on the Internet and on social media websites. The effort drew national media attention and even the attention of celebrities such as Rosanne Barr.
The two key players in the initial effort turned to Twitter and started a conversation with supporters and, to a certain degree, detractors. The individual who appeared in the video wearing the Guy Fawkes mask went by the KYAnonymous Twitter screen name, but that account was later suspended.
KYAnonymous also took credit for organizing "OperationRollRedRoll," which put together the first protest rally in Steubenville. Noah, who said his only role was temporarily taking over the local website, still maintains a JustBatCat Twitter account and, for many months, has used the "BatCat" name.
Noah's involvement came by way of a conversation with KYAnonymous. "KY approached me," Noah said. "I've only used the 'BatCat' name for this one hack. I planned from the beginning to delete 'JustBatCat' (Twitter name) after it was done."
Noah said getting in and taking control of the RollRedRoll.com website "took about 15 minutes."
It was not a hack that involved cracking deep into code but relied on a combination of good luck and poor security measures.
A file reportedly containing the personal emails of site owner and webmaster Jim Parks was released by the group. Also, KnightSec threatened to release Social Security numbers, addresses, phone numbers and personal information about those it claimed were involved in the alleged rape.
The website was compromised a second time, days after the initial takeover, but was quickly secured and has remained secure since.
Noah said that was the extent of his involvement. "I don't plan to have any further role (in the Steubenville case)," he said. "I haven't had an active role in a long time."
He did, however, gain more than 5,000 followers on Twitter almost overnight, and hid his true identity behind the BatCat mask until recently.
Noah said he was surprised at the recognition for his role and described how fast it grew into a national and international story as "astounding." He said getting the chance to talk to Barr was probably the strangest aspect of the case. Otherwise, Noah said he lives a typical Virginia Beach lifestyle and is interested in snowboarding, rally racing, hanging out at home with his pets, playing video games and traveling. "Pretty normal stuff," he added. "I honestly take everything with a grain of salt and with a sense of humor. I think it is really important."
As far as possibly facing legal action due to his role, Noah said, "I don't think so," and noted it was not a government site that was compromised.
He plans on deleting the "BatCat" account when the trial is over.

A Beaufort County man who claimed he did not beat his horse several months ago was found guilty on Tuesday.
Scott Southerland of Pinetown was found guilty of cruelty to animals. He was given a 45 day suspended sentence and put on supervised probation for two years. Southerland must also complete an alcohol assessment, complete recommended treatment and pay $67 restitution to a veterinarian.
Southerland was also fined $250 and ordered to pay court costs.
In April, Southerland was arrested after deputies got a report of a man hitting a horse several times with a fishing rod while in the parking lot of a business in Bath. In an interview, Southerland told WITN News he did not beat the horse, but did use the fishing rod as a "crop" to get the horse under control.
Online court records show Southerland has a pending DWI charge in Beaufort County and driving while license revoked charge in New Hanover County.

Skyjacker C125S - Skyjacker Softride Leaf Springs & Fitted Add-A-Leafs
Representative Image
Product images may differ from actual product appearance.
JEGS Part Number: 825-C125SSoftride Front Leaf Spring
Skyjacker Softride Leaf Springs & Fitted Add-A-Leafs
Skyjacker Softride Technology enhances every steely aspect of leaf spring performance, giving you all the vigorous off-road handling needed while providing the smooth street riding characteristics that you demand. Skyjacker Softride leaf springs use only American steel and the individual leafs of each spring are shotpeened with hard steel pellets at very high velocities. This shotpeening compresses the surface of the steel thereby increasing the tensile strength of the spring. Without this shotpeening procedure, the maximum wheel travel and ride quality could not be achieved without sacrificing the life of the spring. Skyjacker Softride Springs use ''bolt'' style spring clips, eliminating friction. Other spring designs use the ''cinch'' style bend clips which bend tightly over the spring leafs causing binding and friction. Skyjacker Softride springs taper over the entire width of the leaf creating more flex at the leaf ends. This tapering distributes loads more evenly over a greater area and reduces the tendency for one leaf to dig into the leaf above it.

After sending consumers into sticker shock the past month, how much more can gasoline prices climb?
Another 20 to 50 cents a gallon - a level that could propel the cost of gasoline, now $3.75 a gallon, to all-time highs, some experts say.
Gasoline prices typically climb from February to Memorial Day on expectations of rising consumption and costlier summer-blend gas. But so far this year, prices are surging sooner and faster than ever before - up 45 cents since mid-January.
MAP: States with the highest gas prices
Consumers in some metropolitan areas, such as Southern California, are already paying nearly $5.20 a gallon, up more than 75 cents since December lows.
"The gas petro-noia season moved up this year,'' says analyst Tom Kloza of the Oil Price Information Service. "A lot of speculators bet on higher prices beginning earlier in the year."
Kloza and other longtime industry observers are sticking to forecasts that prices will peak at about $3.95 by early April. But others say prices will eclipse July 2008's record $4.11.
"Lots of people are panicking, but there is room to go higher,'' says Atlas Commodities oil broker Carl Larry, who expects $4.10 to $4.25 a gallon gasoline.
Larry's rationale? The sluggish economy and stubbornly high unemployment rate has done little to curb consumer demand. If either gains momentum, prices will rise. Moreover, political unrest in the oil-rich Middle East, refinery woes or prolonged natural disasters could cause additional spikes to crude oil and wholesale gas prices. "A lot could happen to make prices go up,'' he says. "I don't see a lot to push prices down."
Kloza, however, says consumers have balked at $4-a-gallon gas in the past and are likely to cut back as prices approach those levels.
"Crude oil is now about $96 a barrel. It was at $145 when gasoline prices hit the $4.11 record," says Kloza, who expects the recent run-up to lose steam.
"Whatever you pay on St. Patrick's Day will be considerably more than you'll pay on July 4th or Labor Day," Kloza says.
Benchmark West Texas Intermediate crude oil rose 80 cents to $96.66 a barrel Tuesday, but gasoline futures eased 1.7 cents from a four-month high to $3.12 a gallon.
Crude has yet to test January's seven-month peak of $98.25 a barrel, notes Brian Milne of energy tracker Telvent DTN.
"Based on what we've seen up to this point this year, I definitely see more upside, but it will be difficult to puncture through $4 a gallon and stay above it,'' says Milne, who expects recent price jumps to slow to 5 cents a gallon a week over the next month.
Prices are expected to remain highest in California, the Midwest and Northeast, Kloza says. California currently averages $4.17 a gallon, highest in the continental U.S. Lowest: Wyoming and Montana, averaging $3.19.

Crow's Nest: Royals pitcher visits his elementary school on Caravan
School visits are a big hit on Royals Caravan and mascot Sluggerrr meets with students throughout the year. However, it isn't everyday that a player can retrace his roots while on Caravan. Kansas native and Royals pitcher Aaron Crow had that opportunity on Thursday as the Caravan contingent rolled into Auburn, Kan., population 1,227. The assembly at Auburn Elementary included a presentation of stadium seats from The K (and the Caravan participants autographed the seats)! Let's take a look at photos of Crow along with Eric Hosmer, Everett Teaford, Royals Hall of Famer Willie Wilson, broadcaster Ryan Lefebvre and Sluggerrr:

Mach1 Remesh
Posted 24 June 2013 - 07:46 PM
Decided to remesh my Mach1. I followed APs instructions very carefully and while the gearbox did loosen it did not really allow for much play. So, even though I rocked the gearboxes in an attempt to remesh the gears, given the small amount of play in the boxes I am not sure anything was accomplished. I wasnt going to take the risk of loosening things too much and given that I followed APs instructions closely I figure that such small gearbox movement is perhaps normal. Is it? Thanks for any info anyone can provide.
Posted 24 June 2013 - 09:53 PM
Posted 24 June 2013 - 10:33 PM
so i followed the manual and remeshed. the PE didn't change much (it was about 5" p-p in both cases).

Excuse my ignorance but under what circumstances would you need to consider time is right for a remesh? I checked my manual last night and it only seems to say that remesh is one of the few maintenance items you may need to do but it doesn't suggest when. Is it a change in PE or just an expectation that it will loosen with use and need to be remeshed and "tightened? I'm sticking with the "if it ain't broke....." strategy for now of course.
Grab the CW shaft and gently push / pull on it back and forth. If it easily "rocks" or "clicks/clacks" as it is moved to and fro, the mesh needs to be tightened up as per instructions on the AP Tech portion of their website. Otherwise just use it.

should this DEC tracking curve be the reason to remesh my new Mach1's DEC worm? The scale was about 2" per pixel (FL 510mm, guiding with QHY5 camera 7 sec exposures), so DEC RMS error is about 0.5". Scope was more or less balanced.
I'm pretty happy with my current tracking, but I'm afraid it will not fit with guiding 1000-1200mm FL imaging scope.

Posted 02 July 2013 - 06:58 PM
The DEC curve could also be due to too tight of a mesh - i.e. stiction. But if the stars are tight and round, why bother?
Posted 02 July 2013 - 08:26 PM
Hi Korborh,
How do the guided stars look in the image? Are they oblong in the DEC direction? If the stars are small and round, I would not mess with the mesh of the worm.
The DEC curve could also be due to too tight of a mesh - i.e. stiction. But if the stars are tight and round, why bother?
Actually, I'm happy with current stars shape. Please see attached image: scale 1:1 crop from single 10 minutes exposure of M17 region; no curves, sharpening etc.
I'm just worrying about shooting with longer focal lengths. I had 6+ years experience fighting with tracking using Sirius and Atlas mounts. I had the same chainsaw shaped tracking (but 3-5 times higher amplitude) with these mounts, it happened when scope was not properly balanced on DEC.
Korborh, could you please say, does AP1200 have the same kind of DEC tracking?
Attached Files
Posted 02 July 2013 - 09:35 PM
Yes I have seen this type of DEC guiding with my AP1200 but my guider scale is much smaller - 4x smaller than yours. I am guiding at 0.5"/px on the C14Edge.
Unless the errors are too big, for me this type of graph does not correlate with oblong stars. However when I have the mesh on the tighter side, this effect is more pronounced and I can only think of it as stiction. IF then the RA guiding is really tight, then you will small but oblong stars. All this appears if the stars are really small and well focused so effects from less than perfect DEC guiding can show up in the image.
For my mount I have found that the best meshing is the one which is on the verge of feeling backlash - i.e. towards the loose side so that a slight change to it will start showing up as movement on the scope with clutches tight. And that the gear on the worm is very easy to rotate by fingertips. The meshing on Mach1 is perhaps simpler....but this stuff is not hard to do and I would recommend meshing on the loose side rather than tight.
On an AP mount, if your guiding calibration was done correctly, then I suspect that mesh is slightly on the tighter side. And you are probably very well polar aligned that DEC corrections are needed in both directions.
Posted 02 July 2013 - 09:41 PM
Posted 02 July 2013 - 10:22 PM
Posted 02 July 2013 - 10:57 PM
So, if you see poor guiding in your opinion, what are the conditions like?
Have you tried to change your settings? I would set up and just guide and make changes to the setting, min move, max move, aggression and see how it goes.
But if you find that you just are stuck at a certain guide performance then maybe you need to run PemPro and see just what your mount is doing.
Posted 03 July 2013 - 03:01 AM
Just to make things clear: I'm happy with current tracking performance of my Mach1. These numbers are hardly possible with Atlas or Sirius: having 0.25'" RMS error for 7 sec guiding exposures. I'm just afraid it will be not enough for 1000-1500mm FL.
I'm still not familiar with PemPro. I analyzed tracking log with PecPrep and didn't see there any suspicious signs. Just in case please see attached PecPrep chart for guided tracking (510mm FL, QHY5, guiding exposure 7 sec). But... it explains nothing regarding DEC tracking.

My RMS guiding never gets better than 0.5" to 0.6" - I think it's the seeing.
Cleo's Eye at 4700mm @ 2 minute subs
Eskimo @ 2350mm
These aren't particularly good images, took them from my balcony with mag 3 skies (!!!) and I didn't use an OAG, just a Meade 60mm f/9 as a guide scope.
Posted 03 July 2013 - 04:01 PM
I'll check guiding capabilities for longer focal length with my Mak-Cass, I expect to have about 1200mm FL with reducer.
Posted 03 July 2013 - 08:35 PM
And unguided tracking looks nice as well - about 5" p-p periodics.
This all looks pretty good really. 5" PE is good, my AP900 is 6-7" and I image at 740mm and 980mm with great looking stars.
I am sure it could handle long f/l with out a problem.
But as I said before, it is possible that conditions could still be an issue.

Remodeled Gymboree opens at Rancho
- Details
- Published on Wednesday, 30 January 2013 00:00
- Written by Clyde Noel - Special to the Town Crier
Photo By: Clyde Noel/Town Crier
A curious young shopper examines various items on display at the newly remodeled Gymboree Play & Music at Rancho Shopping Center. The remodeled space opened its doors last week.
Gymboree Play & Music opened a remodeled location at Rancho Shopping Center last week, welcoming infants and children who explored the enlarged play area.
Founded in 1976, Gymboree is designed to foster creativity and confidence in children up to 5 years old.
"From the moment they walk in the door, parents can see we have created an environment where kids are free to move, play and explore safely," said Gymboree manager Stephanie Spencer.
The new play equipment is custom designed to provide a range of age-appropriate challenges and skill-building exercises. Children can participate and learn at their own pace.
Gymboree offers art classes that inspire a child's imagination and self-expression with a variety of hands-on activities, Spencer said.
Music classes, she added, enhance a child's development and love of music through song, dance and movement games. As children get involved, they experience the power of rhythm, melody and tonality.
Gymboree Play & Music is located at 664 Fremont Ave., Los Altos.

|Republicans target election at local Lincoln Day dinner
|Written by Brenda Johnson Brandt
"Stay on our message, stay strong and gain a majority of the Independents' votes." That's the advice Jon Becker gave Phillips County Republicans as he addressed the Lincoln Day dinner in Holyoke Sunday, March 2.
He cited successful recalls in the state this past year to point out that citizens still have ultimate control of the system.
"We need to listen to their questions, respond with answers and have true solutions," said Becker. "If we can do that, this party that we love so much will be back in power."
Becker, from Fort Morgan, served as representative from Colorado House District No. 63 from 2011-12. Through redistricting at that time, he was in District 65 and chose not to run against Rep. Jerry Sonnenberg.
However, after sitting out for two years, Becker now seeks the District 65 seat being vacated by Sonnenberg.
"How do we get to be back in the majority from having been in the minority?" Becker asked the Phillips County crowd of around 60 people Sunday, just two days before party caucuses.
Citing the recall election in Pueblo, he summarized, "We got the Independents to vote with us."
He also highlighted the grassroots effort of the people who bound together for the 2nd Amendment gun issue, saying they didn't allow it to get off topic.

The long awaited Rolling Stones 50th anniversary documentary directed by Brett Morgan will air on HBO sometime this fall. Michael Lombardo, President of Programming at HBO, spoke to the press about the yet-to-be named doc, saying, "This is all done as part of the band's 50th anniversary. This documentary has the full involvement of the four current band members -- Mick (Jagger), Keith (Richards), Charlie (Watts), and Ron (Wood) -- as well as the former band members Bill Wyman and Mick Taylor. We'll follow the band from their early club days through their arrival as the greatest band in the world."
The band's last career-spanning documentary was 1989's 25 X 5: The Continuing Adventures Of The Rolling Stones. The film, shot during the band's Steel Wheels tour, featured new interviews with the band and many rarely seen live and TV appearances -- although most were unfortunately abbreviated. 25x5 remains one of the few official Stones films that has yet to be released on DVD.

It is possible that the main title of the report Hydrocephalus is not the name you expected. Please check the synonyms listing to find the alternate name(s) and disorder subdivision(s) covered by this report.
General Discussion
Hydrocephalus is a condition in which abnormally widened (dilated) cerebral spaces in the brain (ventricles) inhibit the normal flow of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF). The cerebrospinal fluid accumulates in the skull and puts pressure on the brain tissue. An enlarged head in infants and increased cerebrospinal fluid pressure are frequent findings but are not necessary for the diagnosis of Hydrocephalus. There are several different forms of Hydrocephalus: communicating hydrocephalus, non-communicating hydrocephalus or obstructive hydrocephalus, internal hydrocephalus, normal pressure hydrocephalus, and benign hydrocephalus.

For Bobby Darin, performing was his life. It kept his heart beating. He came alive onstage, even when he was near collapse offstage. From the age of seven, Walden Robert Cassotto--Little Bobby knows the odds are stacked against him. Rheumatic fever has permanently damaged his heart, and he's not expected to make it to age fifteen. Bobby's family pour all their energies into caring for him. Bobby's frail heart may be one truth, but his mother Polly, a former singer, introduces her boy to another wonderful truth: music.

For example, a Kenyan MPesa customer on his visit to Ghana, can simply download an app to pay parking fees or make some quick purchases in a busy market in Ghana. Implementing platform level and customer level interoperability would be the foundation to build this big ecosystem.
2. Transformation of traditional model of B2B payments – Increasingly, mobile money is finding its application in the Retail industry for Point of Sale (PoS) transactions. Interestingly, I would expect more Business to Business (B2B) mobile money solutions to emerge for various industries. These solutions would focus on transforming the way payments are being made throughout the value chain. The aim would be to reduce risk of carrying cash, optimize liquidity, and provide delivery of goods and payments with security.
3. Development of new business models – Traditionally a Mobile Network Operator (MNO) or a bank provides the mobile money services either individually or in collaboration. Of late, new business models are emerging as different industries are exploring mobile money based custom applications.
For example, Bharat Sanchar Nigam Limited (BSNL), a leading telecom service provider in India, has a mobile banking platform which will help mobile subscribers to send money orders electronically. The unique thing is that this SMS based service is done in association with India Post. Receiver will be able to encash the SMS at all post offices in the country. Starbucks, a leading coffee chain is already among the most successful early adopters of mobile payments, claiming to have processed USD26 million in mobile transactions in the US just 12 months after launching the service. Recently, it has forged a partnership with Square that will see the mobile payments company power in-store credit and debit card payments for Starbucks.
I expect that more of these innovative and interesting partnerships will emerge which would utilize mobile money to conduct business more efficiently and effectively.
I look forward to your comments and observations. Please click "Add a Comment" below or "More Actions" to share this with others.

MEDIA MASHUP: Dude, shut your pie hole
Andy Murray gave us his best "O" face after hitting an unbelievably sick passing shot by a helpless Marin Cilic during his semifinal win over the Croat last night at the Aussie Open.
I guess if this tennis thing doesn't pan out he could put that hole to work.
Here's a clip of that shot in case you missed it:

Oh, and good luck, Andy Murray!
Oh, and this has nothing to do with Murray except for the fact he interviewed him on court afterward, but I floved the color of Courier's shirt. That color makes natch happy. :D
What a way to break Cilic's serve :DReplyDelete

No player, and I mean, NO player, can fist pump like Rafa.
Absolute EPIC!

Editor's note: Each week in "Apparently This Matters," CNN's Jarrett Bellini applies his warped sensibilities to trending topics in social media and random items of interest on the Web.
*If you're viewing this on our iPad app, click VIDEO then choose photo option.
(CNN) -- It's been quite a while since I last soiled my pants. Easily a week or two. Maybe three.
But temptation is everywhere, and the other day, as I was driving down the highway, I noticed a big sign for a haunted house. And I thought, "Welp, better stay away from that."
But as I passed this haunted house, I also sort of did a double take, for it occurred to me that it was still only September.
October's such a hipster.
For all you nature lovers, it's just down the street from Planet Hollywood.
"I love you, Megan. Let's get an overpriced cheeseburger."
"Anything for you, babe."
Naturally, his ghost still wanders the halls and haunts anyone who passes through his "beloved and now abandoned factory."
"Naw, Jimi, you go on without me. I'm just gonna float around my old factory and be bitter."
Nightmares Fear Factory is just blocks away from the big splashy of Niagara Falls.
The images are amazing. Picture your grandparents watching Miley Cyrus at the VMAs. With their pastor.
As a bonus, some of the images are then fed to a photo stream on flickr so the rest of us can laugh at people clinging to each other in sheer terror.
Just something.
So, as we say goodbye to September, it's time to say hello to Nightmares Fear Factory and all the other seasonal haunted houses that come to us in October. None of which I'll be visiting.

Parts of Ocracoke in Hyde County were submerged after the storm brushed by our coast, but officials there say, property damage was minimal.
Six homes and three businesses on Ocracoke had water come inside. Highway 12, however, on the north side of the island, is washed out. The DOT is working to fix the problem.
Officials say there is still some standing water in the low-lying areas of Ocracoke, as well as Engelhard, on the mainland of Hyde County.
A press release says early voting was rescheduled to Thursday at the Ocracoke Community Center.
Previous Story:
Ocracoke Island is currently experiencing extreme sound side flooding, with some areas presently inundated with more than 18 inches of water. Several homes and businesses are threatened at this point. With an anticipated 45 hours left in the weather event, Hyde County Deputy Emergency Operation Center is active and resources are staged to respond to hazardous conditions and emergencies related to Hurricane Sandy.
The National Weather Service has upped the storm surge forecast to 4-7 feet above ground on the sound side of Ocracoke Island, with peak surge times to take place at the next high tide cycle on Monday morning. Ocean storm surge is predicted to be 2-4 feet above ground. Minor storm surges are projected for mainland Hyde County.
High tides for today are 7 a.m. and 7 p.m. and 8 a.m. and 8 p.m. tomorrow.
Winds are not forecasted to let up over the next 24 hours, but they will slowly change to a northwesterly and westerly direction. Currently, sustained winds are projected at 40-55 mph for Ocracoke and Engelhard, with gusts up to 50-70 mph. Other areas of the mainland are seeing winds of 25-35 mph, gusting 40-55 mph. Rainfall accumulations are expected to be 1.25 to 4 inches on Ocracoke and .75 to 3 inches on the Mainland over the next five days.
Impacts are expected to decrease tomorrow afternoon into tomorrow night as the system pulls out of the area on Tuesday morning.
Ground service for Emergency Medical Service remains suspended, however resources are in place should citizens have acute medical needs. On Ocracoke, persons needing medical attention are directed to call 911 and will be asked to provide their own transportation to the EMS Station for on site treatment.
Transportation is extremely limited on the island. NC 12 / Irvin Garrish Highway is flooded with 18-24 inches of water in the village and at least 2 inches of moving water on the highway north of the village.
All ferry routes have been suspended, as of 2 p.m. Saturday.
Parts of Ocracoke village lost power this morning from 7 to 8:30 a.m. Tideland EMC has an unconfirmed report of a power pole down in the water. As a result, service may be suspended for repairs. Tideland has assured they will activate the generator on the island should service be interrupted.
Hot meals are available for purchase at Ocracoke Station and Topless Oyster.
Reports from mainland Hyde indicate little or no damage.
Things to remember:
- Do not drive through moving water.
- Due to dangerous rip currents, swimmers are advised to stay out of water.
- The Hyde County Sheriff's office cautions drivers to be alert to changing road conditions.
- Persons with an acute medical emergency should call 911, where they will be advised to provide their own transportation to the EMS station (behind the medical center).
- Check generators to ensure they are working properly.
- Secure all outdoor furnishings, trash cans, and any loose items in preparation for a long period of winds and rain.
- Residents and guests in the area should move cars and equipment to higher ground without blocking roads, driveways or bridges. The National Park Service parking lot is available to Ocracoke visitors for this purpose. Boats, boat trailers, golf carts and propane tanks should be secured.
- If vehicles become inundated with water, disconnect the battery cables to prevent fire. Do not attempt to start the vehicle.
- People with special medical needs and unique situations are urged to consider their options. Hyde County public safety services will cease operations after winds reach 50 mph sustained.
- Hyde County EMS will provide portable generators for people with special medical needs in the event of a power outage.
Previous Story:
In the wake of Hurricane Sandy, Hyde County Emergency Services has suspended ground transport of Emergency Medical Services on Ocracoke. Service on the mainland has not been suspended.
Unsafe travel conditions and ocean over wash on NC Highway 12 -Irvin Garrish Highway on the northern end of Ocracoke Island warranted staffers at the Emergency Operations Center to make the decision, as well as ferry routes being suspended. The Ocracoke Deputy EOC was activated at 8 a.m. this morning.
A State of Emergency has been declared for the Hyde County mainland and Ocracoke Island effective at 2:00 p.m. Friday . This declaration places all county staff in a state of readiness and enables Hyde County to receive assistance from the State Office of Emergency Management should it be required.
No evacuation orders have been issued at this time for residents or visitors to Ocracoke or Hyde County.
The storm is expected to pass close enough to the Outer Banks to produce strong winds of more than 50 mph. Strong winds will lead to very rough surf, dangerous rip currents, ocean overwash and moderate coastal flooding both on the ocean and sound. Periods of heavy rain will also occur with as much as 5 inches possible along the coast.
The National Park Service will patrol Ocracoke beaches to ensure public safety. Due to dangerous rip currents, swimmers are advised to stay out of water. The beaches closed at 5 p.m. Saturday as will the Visitor's Center and permit offices. The National Park Service Campground on Ocracoke closed at noon Saturday.
The Hyde County Sheriff's office cautions drivers to be alert to changing road conditions. On Ocracoke Island, ocean overwash could make roads impassable, especially along NC 12.
Early voting scheduled to take place on Ocracoke Island has been cancelled. Voters can request absentee ballots until 5 P.M. Monday, October 29th. Elderly, disabled ,or medically indisposed voters have one additional week to request a ballot, and can do so by calling the Elections Office in Swan Quarter at 926-5280.
The Ocracoke Pirate Festival, scheduled to take place this weekend, was cancelled and will be rescheduled as soon as possible.

D.C. Voting Rights: Long Overlooked, Long Overdue
So now what? What's the latest hypocritical excuse for why the capital of the free world, the District of Columbia, cannot enjoy equal democratic rights? What's holding back the president, the House of Representative and the Senate from doing the right thing?
What did you wager whether D.C. Mayor Vincent Gray, a Democrat, would be still waiting for President Barack Obama, a Democrat, to mention D.C. democracy, or the lack thereof, after standing in his bully pulpit Tuesday night delivering his State of the Union speech?
Everybody talks democracy for the District's more than 600,000 disenfranchised residents; no one delivers. But all need to be reminded that democracy is not earned by balancing a budget, it is the essential American birthright.
For years all anyone heard when it came to asking that the residents of the nation's capital be granted full voting rights, full local autonomy and the right to spend their own taxpayer generated dollars as every other American municipality, the unfounded hue and cry from the White House and Capitol Hill was, "Oh, no; they can't manage their money." Or, "Oh, no; they're corrupt."
The financial clouds grew so dark, that Congress even stripped elected officials, mainly "Mayor for Life" Marion Barry, of their limited Home Rule rights and imposed a financial control board and a chief financial officer who is more powerful than any in the country.
That was then, circa late 1990s; this is now. Since the financial control board went dormant in 2001, District leaders have balanced every budget. This year thanks to unexpected revenue brought on by new growth and some austerity, the District did even better. How many cities in America can boast of a $1.5 billion rainy day fund like the District? How many cities in this country can tout end of year budget surpluses in the hundreds of millions two years in a row like the District?
During this recession some municipalities went bankrupt. No one yanked their local autonomy or voting rights. Don't dare look to the "kick the can down the road" or over the "fiscal cliff" Congress for budgetary prowess. But because of Congress' constitutional control over the "federal city," when they don't pass a budget and have to shut down the government, so does the District.
Last month Congresswoman Eleanor Holmes Norton (D-DC), still a nonvoting delegate, introduced the District of Columbia Budget Autonomy Act of 2013, which would allow the District's local taxpayer-raised budget to take effect immediately after city approval, without requiring congressional approval.
"The D.C. local budget consumes valuable congressional subcommittee, committee, and floor time in both houses of Congress even though it is of interest only to those members who use it to promote their own issues, violating the principle of local self-government," Norton said in her floor statement on the introduction of the bill. "Congressional interference into one of the most vital rights to self-government must end this year."
Norton also has introduced or reintroduced bills this year to get a vote on the House floor and to get statehood for New Columbia, the 51st state.
Jon Bouker, chair of DC Vote's board of directors, noted in a letter to President Obama also asking him to mention the District's nonvoting status in the SOTU address that District residents have decided to take their money matters in their own hands. They will be voting on a controversial budget autonomy referendum in April that will change the 1973 Home Rule Charter to mirror Norton's congressional bill.
However, some leaders, even the city's attorney general, are concerned that such a measure will not stand up legally; Congress, after all, would have to approve it.
Last week Gray along with outgoing CFO Natwar Gandhi announced the District had a surplus of $417 million for FY2012; last year it was $241 million. Doesn't sound like fiscal irresponsibility to many city residents who may now get more help for the "have-nots," including affordable housing units, as promised by this mayor in his rose-colored State of the District address last week.
Gray ought to ask Congress: "How you like me now?" This healthy financial picture ought to be enough to warrant budget autonomy at a minimum for the "Last Colony." No more "taxation without representation" excuses.
As Mayor Gray said, "I want to thank you, Mr. President, for displaying our "Taxation without Representation" license plates [on presidential vehicles since the inauguration parade] – but now is the time for us to have license to approve our own budget and our own laws."

Tomorrow's 2nd Annual Atheist Film Festival @ the Red Vic Is So San Francisco
By Laura Mason on August 13, 2010 2:45 PM
The Atheist Film Festival, which comes to the Red Vic Movie House this Saturday (and is FREE), is bound to attract many an intellectual, along with a a delightful splattering of conspiracy theorists and wackos.
The full day includes six films and documentaries, like Monty Python's The Meaning of Life, The Rapture and The Four Horsemen, as well as a collection of shorts starring the irreverent minds of George Carlin, Ricky Gervais and others. Filled with curiosity and a hankering to see a young David Duchovny in 1991's The Rapture, we talked with the festival's co-founder and director David Fitzgerald to get to know how this San Francisco oddity came to be.

3 teens, 1 armed, arrested at Light Up Ocala event
Published: Sunday, November 24, 2013 at 5:35 p.m.
Last Modified: Sunday, November 24, 2013 at 5:35 p.m.
Three teenagers, one carrying a concealed firearm, were arrested Saturday evening on the downtown square during the annual "Light Up Ocala."
Officials noted that the arrests were not related to rumors circulating earlier on Facebook that warned of impending violence during the annual Christmas event.
Police tried to quell the rumors on Friday, but the Facebook chatter continued into Saturday, said Ocala Police Lt. Billy Woods. It escalated again after an unrelated fatal shooting just blocks from downtown.
Police increased security at Light Up Ocala and confronted three juveniles, whose names were not released.

I am trying to migrate from Domino 8.5.3 to Zimbra 8.04, the migration wizard is unable
to import group of contacts from users' address books.
In zimbra 7 the wizard was able to import group, members had the real email address if
they was external or the domino DN if they was internal.
Nown in 8.05 the wizard only creates an empty group and is unable to import all groups.
Can someone confirm this strange behaviour ?

Building The Astra Coupe - The Creation Of Jay Everett's Astra CoupeWritten by Chris Shelton on June 1, 2009 Radical But Practical Revisited
In the very early 1950s a proverbial tree fell, but today almost nobody remembers hearing it. It certainly wasn't due to mediocrity; with its scratch-built tube chassis, handformed alloy body, and domestic V-8 grunt, the Astra Coupe is a true handbuilt sports car/hot rod hybrid cast in the same mold--or is that beaten over the same buck?--as Briggs Cunningham's legendary race cars from the same era.
While it never achieved the performance or cult status of Cunningham's cars, the Astra did get considerable press in its day. It was recognized as a visionary's idea of the ultimate sports rod and a testimonial of what an ordinary guy could achieve. Nor was its life short-lived; whether or not mixed praise in a major magazine initiated it, its restyling in the mid-1950s (where the car picked up the Astra Coupe name) put it back into a limelight that glowed well into the following decade.
One of the things that make this particular car stand out is the role it played in its owner's life. After selling the Astra, Jay Everett embarked upon a prolific career as a prototype builder. Among his highlights: an animatronic display his company built for IBM that debuted at the same World's Fair as Disney's Lincoln Speaks, a bottle proposal that became the iconic and award-winning Michelob beer bottle, and fiberglass seat shells and cast-aluminum legs for chairs that Charles and Ray Eames designed.
Though he'd long sold it by the time he made his mark on the design world, the Astra resurfaced in Jay's life in various ways. Whether it was fiberglass cupolas for the Don the Beachcomber restaurant in Las Vegas or computer cases for early IBM minicomputers, each project embarked upon by Jay Everett owed at least a part of its existence to his automotive construction background.
While no one source knew the Astra's whole story, each person in Jay's life revealed fragments of overlapping information. When combined with what appeared in the dozen or so articles written about the car over the years, a really comprehensive picture emerged.
Of course the flip side to a wealth of information is size, and to present everything we now know about the Astra in one sitting might be a bite too big to swallow. So we're going to try something different. We're going to tell the Astra's story in two parts: the way it was using photos taken of it during its heyday, and the way it is now.
Here goes nothin'.
"I'mtired of looking at lead barges," Jay proposed while talking about his car in the January '54 issue of Hot Rod magazine. By that time, Jay was a freshly minted father from Gardena who'd claimed 15 years of automotive experience in his 25 years.
Though Jay's claim may sound a little boastful, his creation was tangible proof of experience beyond his years. At the very least, friends and family noted that Jay did attend the Art Center College of Design in Pasadena for a period, and "I remember that Jay worked at Gordon's Body Shop in the very early 1950s," said Beverly Mason, Jay's first wife.
Despite admitting a lack of formal training in that Hot Rod article, Jay produced something that wasn't standard fare, and the difference went deeper than the car's light-metal skin. Whereas most "handbuilt" cars of its time were based on production cars or at the very least their frames, Jay's car sat on a chassis that Paul Koonz created from a triangulated network of 2 3/8-inch-diameter tubing.
Jay arched a network of smaller-diameter tubes arched over the chassis in the body's general shape. Spanning the gaps between those tubes was a skin that Jack Sutton (who built many a body for '50s race cars, including several bodies for Max Balchowski's Ol' Yallar race cars) and Dennis Powers formed on what Tommy Amer referred to in that Hot Rod article as an "English wheeling machine." Incorporated within those panels were various OEM components, like the majority of the windshield from the '52 Caddy and a Chevrolet Fleetline rear window. While the Chevy glass came with its own trim, bear in mind that Jay made full OEM-style trim for the cut-down Caddy glass.
Jay fastened the panels to the framework, and what emerged from his garage was a long-hood/short-deck creation with generously radiused wheelwells--both common practices among Continental European sports car manufacturers of the time. Though the design wasn't universally accepted, Jay left the ends of the car open and filled them with grilles made from flat stock and tubing. In retrospect, it probably wasn't the best idea, but Jay installed the radiator behind the grille in the Kamm-inspired tail, presumably with the idea that the low-pressure area behind the car would pull air through it. It's somewhat common practice today, but when Jay assembled the front fenders and hood as a clip that tilted forward from the chin in 1952, it wasn't in the least.
In the January '54 Hot Rod article, Tommy Amer said that a Cadillac engine sat 8 inches behind the axle. However, in the following month's Hop Up and Motor Life article, "Radical but Practical," Dean Moon noted that "Ample room remains for the late-model OHV V-8 engine, which will be installed in the near future." Dean could've gathered his information for the Hop Up article before Tommy Amer did for the Hot Rod piece, but it would've been exceptional for Hot Rod to not run a photo of an existing engine had it been there.
According to Beverly Mason, Jay's first wife, the car upon its debut didn't necessarily look the way most people remember it. "At the time the car was kind of a gold color," she said. Her recollection is consistent with the lighter finish on the car in the earliest articles. "I did go with him to a couple of car shows. He had a matching gold corduroy shirt--I just remember that scene. There was a lot of interest about the car."
"It was the envy of (George) Barris," noted one of Jay's future business partners, Jerry Williamson. "He couldn't stand that the car was upstaging him at that show. (Jay) was doing razor-crisp edges when they weren't very fashionable yet."
Though Jay had his reasons to design the ends of the car the way he did, it wasn't universally admired. In the September '55 Motor Trend, writer Ocee Ritch asked Detroit designers what they thought of the latest custom-car designs. Alongside images from Tommy Amer's Hot Rod article was Ocee's assessment: "...one of the recent best," he called it. Quoting the Detroit stylists, however, Ocee added that they "...have the feeling it was designed for ease of construction instead of being styled."
Whether or not it was due to the article, the car disappeared for almost a year. When it reappeared in the May '56 Rod & Custom, however, Jay's car looked decidedly different...and better by most accounts.
The fenders originally projected far ahead of the front wheels, but for this design Jay bobbed and tapered them to a point. He integrated the headlight covers with the existing hood scoops in this second design, la Lincoln's '55 Futura show car and '56 Premiere production car. The shark-nosed design effectively pinched closed the front of the car necessitating a scoop below to direct air to a more conventional front-mounted radiator.
By most accounts the presence of that chin scoop suggests the car's first engine, a 303-inch Olds. Though the car could have had an engine before, the extra clearance afforded by the cast-aluminum scoop that appeared on the hood in the new design suggests that it wasn't likely. As for the idea that the car had a Hydramatic as alluded to in one article, "It's obvious that the car was designed for a clutch pedal," said JF Launier, who restored the car. "It's not like something that was added at a later date."
The tail retained its shape, but Jay closed off the old radiator hole with a black-painted aluminum panel and replaced the earlier grille with a lattice of broader aluminum flat stock. In lieu of the old design's round taillights were handmade acrylic lenses that followed the arch of the rear quarters. A vertical sheet of aluminum split each of those lights into stoplights and what looked to be reverse lights. Along the way the decklid picked up a machined-aluminum fuel-filler cap (we'd call it billet nowadays). A small-diameter side pipe emerged from the rear of the simple, chrome-plated rocker panels.
Photos shot on the lawn in front of Jay's house indicate that the two handmade tube-framed buckets that are in the car today replaced the bench. Between those buckets emerged two shifter stalks, indicating that the car definitely had an overdrive transmission--likely the early Lincoln it has today.
In place of the Cadillac steering wheel is a handmade banjo wheel with three sets of three small-diameter spokes and an aluminum horn cap along the same lines as the fuel filler. A handmade steering column mast jacket replaced the column-shift unit, and the gauges migrated into an amoeba-shaped, aluminum-rimmed pod around that steering column.
Upon closer inspection, two brass badges--one within the hood spear and another at the bottom of the decklid--indicated that Jay's car was no longer officially nameless; it was now the Astra Coupe.
Jay's car as the Astra Coupe officially debuted in the May '56 Rod & Custom. Though James Potter called the Astra black and white, according to Jay's brother, John, who has pictures taken the day James shot the car, "...it is most certainly blue, though dark." Furthermore, Terry Everett, Jay's son, also remembers another blazer his dad wore to car shows--a jacket the same blue as the car.
Regardless of color, one thing is certain: In that May '56 R&C, Jay's car made a splash that rippled for decades. To see what happened, check in next month.

The mahogany dash that Jay carved for his car transitioned into the doors. The steering wheel is definitely '52 Cadillac. Though it's impossible to divine the exact source of the column, the third pedal in the car from day one suggests as if Jay intended to run a manual transmission.Proving that Jay really did try the rear-mounted radiator, he showed the design to Dean Moon, who relayed the idea in the February '54 Hop Up and Motor Life article. Bear in mind that while the car debuted about the same time as this article printed, Jay hadn't even plumbed the radiator.When Jay initially completed the car, he created the egg-crate grilles welding together strips of 16-gauge steel. He heat-bent pieces of heavy-wall steel tubing to create the rounded bumperettes that flank those grilles. This rear shot shows the original taillight shape and location.In his original tail design, Jay incorporated a round taillight within the upper part of each flat-stock grille side. As was the case in the front, a set of tubular nerf bars mirrored the fender arch. Jay made the tombstone-shaped taillight/reverse light combo from acrylic sheet, reportedly his favored material throughout his career.The restyle that Jay gave the car changed more than the car's shape; it changed its attitude. Though the car remained largely the same behind the wheelwells, the new nose shape defined its new personality as a sports-type car. Rather than compromise the shark-like nose with a grille opening, Jay created a scoop below it that fed air to the radiator.Jay bobbed the headlight doors but preserved their profile. The lower edges returned to create mini grilles of sorts inboard each headlight. Jay later created small nerf bars that replaced the bullets protruding from the grilles as seen here.

While we usually think of perfume for women and cologne for men when we hear the word fragrance, scent can be just as powerful when applied to the home. Scent can create a warm, inviting and relaxing environment in any house, condo or apartment. Home fragrance can make guests feel comfortable and welcome.
Candles provide subtle scent when they are burned along with the added ambiance of a light flame that is perfect for chilly evenings. Fragrant candles can be very relaxing. These scented home accessories can also create a romantic ambiance for special occasions and for spicing up an evening.
Fragrance diffusers for the home offer a new way to create an inviting and welcoming atmosphere. Diffusers are long-lasting, using small amounts of essential oils over time. The aromas are always very subtle, creating a soothing experience you can enjoy without being overwhelmed by strong scents.

Atlanta, GA (SportsNetwork.com)- Atlanta Hawks guard Lou Williams, sidelined
since January with a knee injury that required surgery, has been cleared to
play and is listed as day-to-day.
Williams suffered a torn ACL in his right knee on Jan. 18 in a game against
Brooklyn. He had surgery to repair the injury on Feb. 7 and had been
sidelined ever since.
"It's been a long, long journey," said Williams. "I've learned a lot about
myself. I'm really excited to get back out there and play a game."
The Hawks host the Philadelphia 76ers on Friday night. The team hasn't
announced if Williams will be playing.
In 39 games last season, Williams averaged 14.1 points and 3.6 assists per
game. For his career, the 2011-12 Sixth Man Award winner when with the Sixers
has averaged 11.6 points per game over eight seasons.

Paris, France (Sports Network) - Serena Williams once again encountered little
resistance in a third-round rout Friday at the French Open.
The top-seeded American blasted Romania's Sorana Cirstea with a 6-0, 6-2 romp
in 61 minutes. She won 61 of the 94 total points played, broke serve five
times and saved three break points against her serve.
Williams ran her career-best winning streak to 27 straight matches and is 70-3
overall since suffering a shocking first-round loss to Virginie Razzano at
Roland Garros last year. There's been no hint of trouble for the 2002 champ
this year, as Williams has dropped just six games in her first three matches.
There were no weather issues on Friday, allowing for the completion of the
second round in addition to the start of the third. Thursday's rain delays
forced a number of second-round matches into Friday.
Maria Sharapova, the defending champion and this year's second seed, had to
come back Friday to complete her second-round match against Canada's Eugenie
Bouchard. The Russian star did just that, taking only 15 minutes to finish a
6-2, 6-4 triumph.
Russia's Maria Kirilenko and Frenchwoman Marion Bartoli also moved on with
second-round wins Friday. The 12th-seeded Kirilenko blitzed Australia's
Ashleigh Barty, 6-3, 6-1, while the 13th-seeded Bartoli battled past
Colombia's Mariana Duque-Marino, 7-6 (7-5), 7-5.
Third-round action later Friday includes fourth-seeded Agnieszka Radwanska
against German Dinah Pfizenmaier and fifth-seeded Sara Errani versus German
Sabine Lisicki.

Upon his return from tours with the Naval Reserve in 1997, Wallace received a reprimand and disciplinary transfer for improper interaction with a female officer. When Wallace returned from another duty tour, he received a "below standard" evaluation and was placed on a 90-day performance review. He later received a second below-standard evaluation. Before he left for a deployment to Bosnia, Wallace was asked to provide additional documentation related to his reserve drill training.
While he was on deployment, the San Diego Police Department in 1999 began disciplinary action against Wallace for unauthorized teaching at the police department's academy and for his alleged failure to provide documentation relating to his reserve drills. Another investigation focused on Wallace's failure to notify his supervisor of his absence for reserve duty. Termination proceedings against him began, but were later rescinded. Wallace was transferred to a station near his home and received a further appraisal critical of his performance. He resigned after a citizen filed a discrimination complaint against him.
A jury awarded Wallace $256,800 because the police department had retaliated against him for his exercise of military leave rights protected by the Uniformed Services Employment and Re-employment Rights Act. The district court overturned that verdict, and Wallace appealed to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 9th Circuit in Pasadena, California.
The 9th Circuit reinstated the jury's verdict because "Wallace presented evidence of a continuing pattern of hostile and discriminatory conduct." Wallace v. San Diego, 9th Cir., No. 03-56552 (8/25/06).
Impact: Employers are advised to carefully evaluate employee rights under USERRA.

All Says:
After eight years as county executive, Tom Suozzi left Ed Mangano with a $300 million deficit. While in office, Suozzi doled out patronage jobs, raised property taxes and created a deficit.
Al forgets that Tom Gullotta gave away the store to create the deficits that Suozzi tried to lower. Mangano has done nothing but move the numbers around. Want to cut the deficit cut Police Salaries/Pensions down to reasonable numbers. Check out your tax bill and see where the majority of the money goes. No Police officer should make more than 85k - 95k a year and a pension should max out at 60k a year no matter what your salary was and no matter what you public service job was.
Sorry Al: l the Republicans care nothing for the middle class they care only about the rich and corporations (where the next political contribution will come from). The only ways to fix our government is term limits, shorter election seasons (maximum 2 or 3 months), and government financing of campaigns.
