Valdosta, GA - The Lowndes County Sheriff Office reported that the department recently received information that local Valdosta residents were manufacturing counterfeit money.
With the assistance of the United States Secret Service, investigators with the Special Operations Division of the Lowndes County Sheriff's Office conducted a search of the residence on Wednesday, October 3 which led to the recovery of copy machine and a printer with currency templates on them.
Also found during the search were paper trimmers, remnants of counterfeit currency and a quantity of marijuana.
Arrested in connection with the search was Jonathan Scott Moody. He was transported to the Lowndes County Jail and appeared for an arraignment hearing on Thursday.
No bond has been set as of yet. On Thursday, investigators arrested two additional persons who have been connected to the production of the counterfeit currency. Allison Cockman and Elissa Moody were both arrested and taken to the Lowndes County Jail and will have an arraignment hearing this afternoon where a bond will be considered.
Sheriff Prine is asking that anyone with information about this, or any other incident contact the Sheriff's Office at {229} 671-2950 or on line at www.lowndessheriff.com. Anonymous tips can be left at {229} 671-2985.

It's going to take a lot for anybody to top the party that American Idol's Simon Cowell had for his 50th birthday. The party was held at Wrotham Park in Hertfordshire, England and had about 400 guests who showed up to celebrate. The party had tons of celebrities and even featured prerecorded birthday wishes from people like Victoria Beckham and Jennifer Aniston that played on a giant projection screen. Some of the celebrities that made an appearance were Kate Moss, Naomi Campbell, Sharon and Ozzy Osbourne, Gordon Ramsay, and of course his American Idol co-stars Ryan Seacrest, Randy Jackson and former co-star Paula Abdul. One person that did snub Simon Cowell was Susan Boyle from Britain's Got Talent. Reportedly she was too busy with her family to attend the party. It has been reported that the birthday party cost more than $2 million total.
Could Beyonce soon be getting a little stepbrother or sister? A woman named Alexsandra Wright is claiming that she is 6 months pregnant with Matthew Knowles (Beyonce's dad) baby. She has even gone as far as to file a paternity case against Knowles in the L.A. County Superior court system. Matthew has been married to Tina Knowles (Beyonce's mom) since 1980. Could this ruin the Knowles family or is this just a ploy for money from the woman? If she went as far as to file a case against him, you have to believe that she really thinks that this is the future step sibling of Beyonce.
Is actor Nicolas Cage hurting for money? It would appear that way. The actor is being sued for $2 million by East West Bank for a line of credit that they gave Nic back in 2007. The bank is claiming that he agreed to pay $11,590 per month and his last payment was from April of this year. The bank is now calling for the full balance of the loan to be paid now. There has been no word from Nicolas Cage on this lawsuit, but you have to wonder what he did with all his money. I have to imagine that he is still making money off movies like Con Air and National Treasure and imdb.com has over 60 movies listed that he has participated in. So, why the loan for $2 million in the first place and why can't he pay it off?

2XU T:3 Team Women's Wetsuit $0.00
The path to speed takes many forms, and accordingly, the path to a faster wetsuit requires many engineering features. So, 2XU approached the T:3 Team Women's Wetsuit with a four-part ideology -- body position, flexibility, hydrodynamics, and buoyancy.
Coincidentally, much of 2XU's engineering towards body position also aids in buoyancy. And accordingly, the T:3 ensures an efficient body position through the development and implementation of its velocity strakes and rollbar technologies. Basically, the velocity strakes are strategically placed and angled points of 5mm raised surface that run from the neck to the knee. These strakes perform many functions, but one of their more notable applications is improving posture in the water, or more precisely put, they efficiently channel water along the body in order to increase your stability and flow. This results in less sideways movement in choppy conditions, and it provides enhanced lift to the body in glassy waters. The rollbars that run along the sides from the hip to the top of scapula operate with the same principle -- minimizing the shoulder and lats tendency to sink inwards during the locomotion of your stroke.
Surely, the aforementioned system of position control sounds right on paper, but you're probably wondering what is its real-world application? Well, aside from proprioceptive dynamics, it also brings us to our next subject, hydrodynamics. Basically, the T:3's goal is to make you faster in the water. And just as curvy, sleek shapes minimize your drag coefficient on land, the wetsuit's level of buoyancy is the minimizing variable in the water. The supporting science behind this claim is fairly elementary -- water is around 1000 times denser than air, and it produces a potential drag coefficient 10 times that of air, as well. So, minimizing your body's submergence is vital to optimizing hydrodynamics. Accordingly, the T:3 features a neoprene with one of the highest available cell densities, Yamamoto 39 cell rubber, for a high level of buoyancy. In fact, this material has an industry-leading specific gravity of 0.13. This means that the cell density of the material is less than water, and when the material is submerged, the ratio of density between the neoprene and water is 0.13 -- or a specific gravity 0.13. For perspective, specific gravity reflects higher levels of buoyancy the further that it gets from 1.00, and most industry competition starts at levels around 0.17. And for a fun fact, the average human's specific gravity is around 0.974 -- we are, after all, mainly composed of water.
Additionally, the T:3 benefits from a hydrodynamic, silicone SCS coating that provides an added level of buoyancy, while lowering the suit's coefficient of kinetic friction. Without entering into a physics lesson, the coefficient of kinetic friction is most simply described as the ratio of the force of friction between two bodies, and the force pressing them together. And in this case, the two bodies are your body and the water and friction occurs concurrently with their motions. So, in the real-world, SCS acts almost like an accelerant as it reduces the friction between yourself and the water, ultimately requiring you to exert less force in order to gain more speed.
For flexibility, the T:3's Yamamoto 39 cell neoprene is not only buoyant, but it also features one of the most flexible rubber compositions on the market -- 520%, four-way stretch. It also has a floating back panel that's non-restrictive nature allows more air into the chest cavity. This concept is furthered by the suit's seamless, floating zip panel. So, your reach is extended, while abrasion is eliminated.
The 2XU T:3 Team Women's Wetsuit is available in the color Black and in five sizes from X-Small to X-Large.

looks good, man.
This is the first building from a series I will create and it can be found in Hamburg Speicherstadt. It contains a lot of 3D elements created in Silo. Working with those elements, called assets in CE, is very tricky.
I've divided the building into columns, where the tower sections have relative distance values. This is the reason why they are stretched in the render pic. The door and window pictures are from goodtextures.com which is a great resource for all kind of textures.
Attached is a reference photo and the rendered picture.

Oh my word, that looks fantastic katto! Here I am struggling to make a box with windows and you're building like an architect! How customisable is the building? Presumably you can make it taller and wider? Rep if it will let me.
Stunningly good...

Thanks a lot.
Ravs, after looking at many pictures of the area, I saw that the smallest unit of the buildings is a column. So I've started with a split(x) first (btw it is better to start with that split when you have complex buildings, the ones in the tutorials are simple and have the same features in each level, so they start with split(y)).
You can rearrange the sequence of columns, but the building layout in reality is always (ABCDCBA)* + corner buildings. The B and D columns have a flexible width to fit in different lot sizes. It is not possible to change the height because of different y splits in the columns.
If you have further questions feel free to ask.
Another building is finished.
I must get back to City Engine....Katto thanks for the tips, but I don't think I'll ever get as good as you!
Thank you.
This building nearly has the same dimensions as the first one, but a lot of more complex objects in it.
Now I try what can be done with streets and sidewalks. Here are some quickies:

The ultimate racing car of 1937
The W 125 returns Mercedes-Benz to the winners' podium
First racing car with supercharged mixture compression
Stuttgart – A deafening roar erupts from the supercharged engine of the new Mercedes-Benz Silver Arrow, as it makes its debut on 9 May 1937 on the Mellaha Lake track at the Tripoli Grand Prix. Under the North African sun, it quickly became clear that this was the call of the ultimate racing car of 1937. Because not only did the Mercedes-Benz W 125 clinch victory in its debut race (with Hermann Lang at the wheel), but it went on to win many other competitions that year. Among others, the car was driven by Rudolf Caracciola who secured three victories in five races for Mercedes-Benz, on his way to winning his second AIACR (Association Internationale des Automobile Clubs Reconnus) European Drivers' Championship.
It took great passion, ingenuity and engineering expertise to build this Grand Prix racer, which was based on an entirely new design. By going to great lengths in designing the car from scratch, the Mercedes-Benz racing department demonstrated a huge amount of faith in their new competition vehicle. After all, the W 125 was developed specifically for a single year – 1937 – the fourth and final season of the 750 kilogram formula. After three years of using the W 25, Mercedes-Benz took the bold step of entering a brand new racing car just as this great era drew to a close.
International racing success for the W 125
The W 125 was introduced mainly to put the competition from Auto Union back in their place, after Bernd Rosemeyer won the European Championship for Mercedes-Benz's rivals in 1936. And the high-speed racer certainly didn't disappoint. Rudolf Caracciola drove it to victory in the European Championship Grands Prix of Germany (at Nürburgring), Switzerland (at Bremgarten) and Italy (at Livorno), and Manfred von Brauchitsch, in his W 125, was the first to see the chequered flag at the Grand Prix of Monaco.
There were also Grand Prix victories that did not count towards the championship, with wins for Lang in Tripoli and Caracciola at the Masaryk Grand Prix in Brno. Caracciola and von Brauchitsch came 2nd and 3rd respectively at the Eifelrennen, and Richard Seaman finished in 2nd place both at the Vanderbilt Cup in New York (only the second race in the United States that Mercedes-Benz had entered) and the Coppa Acerbo in Pescara. Von Brauchitsch was also the runner-up at the Donington Grand Prix in England – ahead of Caracciola in 3rd.
In addition to the Grand Prix cars, which were designed for endurance races, Mercedes-Benz built two lightweight W 125s especially for hillclimbs. Both the lightweight version and the Grand Prix version of the W 125 were still being raced in hillclimbs in 1938 and 1939.
Turbocharged compression of the final mixture
The W 125 was 4.2 metres long, 1.75 metres wide and only 1.2 metres high. Its wheelbase measured 2,798 millimetres, and the front and rear tracks were 1,473 and 1,412 millimetres respectively. The vehicle weight – 749 kilograms without driver, fuels and tyres – was pushing the very limits of the 750 kilogram formula.
The W 125 was powered by a 5660 cc eight-cylinder in-line engine. Each cylinder had two intake and outtake valves in a slanted arrangement, activated by oscillating levers. Two suction carburettors mixed the fuel and the air, which were then fed into a Roots compressor. For the first time in a Mercedes-Benz racing car, the supercharger was downstream from the carburettor, so it was the final mixture that was compressed.
The engine, with a peak output of over 600 bhp (
441 kW
), also saw action in a special variant of the W 25 that proved itself at the Avus race in Berlin. Rudolf Caracciola and Hermann Lang competed in a streamlined, closed-wheel version of the W 25, powered by the new M 125 engine. Lang claimed victory in the car, while Richard Seaman finished 5th in the standard W 125 Grand Prix racer with its open wheels. This experiment with a streamlined car in 1937 provided Mercedes-Benz with important insights for the development of later racing cars and rekordwagen (record car) with fully streamlined bodies.
In January 1938, Rudolf Caracciola achieved the fasted speed ever recorded on a public road in the aerodynamically optimised rekordwagen
version of the W 125. The car, powered by a 736 bhp (
541 kW
) V12 engine, achieved 432.7 kph over a kilometre and 432.4 kph over a mile (1.609,30 m) on the Frankfurt–Darmstadt autobahn (motorway) – both from a flying start.
Visionary engineering details
The W 125 was largely based on the expertise of Rudolf Uhlenhaut, who was appointed chief engineer of the newly formed Mercedes-Benz racing team in the middle of 1936. Its backbone consisted of an ultra-sturdy frame made from nickel-chrome molybdenum steel, with four crossbars. The W 25's box section frame was also dispensed with in favour of an elliptical version. This increased the torsional stiffness of the vehicle, without its engine, to three times the amount of its predecessor.
The front wheels were steered by double wishbones with helical springs, as in the celebrated 500 K and 540 K production models. The wheels at the rear were mounted on a De-Dion double-jointed drive shaft providing constant camber adjustment, with longitudinal torsion bar springs and hydraulic lever-type shock absorbers. Shear and braking torque was transferred to the chassis by lateral links.
After extensive test drives on the Nürburgring circuit, Uhlenhaut opted for a revolutionary chassis design. He made the bold and visionary decision to replace the customary principle of hard springs and minimum damping with the exact opposite. The W 125 featured soft-sprung suspension and exceptionally long spring travel, with a high level of damping, setting the pattern for today's Mercedes-Benz sports cars. The most distinctive feature of the W 125 were the three cooling openings at the front.
Memories of a triumphant season
1937 was to be the only year in which the W 125 competed in Grand Prix races. In 1938, Mercedes-Benz replaced it with the W 154 to comply with the new 3000-cc formula. Nevertheless, the Mercedes-Benz experts recognised the true importance of the technology that made this 1937 racing car so successful. For example, chassis engineer Max Wagner used virtually the same groundbreaking frame for the new W 154 as had been used in the W 125.
The legend of this iconic racing car, which made its debut in 1937, burns as brightly as ever. Louis Sugahara wrote in his definitive work on Mercedes-Benz Grand Prix vehicles in the period from 1934 to 1955: "The W 125 is an exceptional racing car, which fully deserves its very special place in the annals of motorsport history."

I'm not so much using my journalism skills as much as I'm using my writing abilities that I learned in journalism, my graphics editing skills I learned with the VisCom emphasis, as well as all of the technical drawing and editing skills that I learned in my couple of years of engineering at ISU as well as two years of drafting I had in high school. How I got my job wasn't so much due to the fact that I'm a Journalism major, but more due to the culmination of my education experiences all throughout college and even into high school. My economics minor comes into play if I ever decided to leave tech writing for something more business-oriented with the government.

Yes, I'm glad that I missed the "hike" out to the ride and then the 60 miler followed by the ride back to Starbucks. After Saturday, it definitely would have been too much. As it was, I had to catch back up with my hydration, which is why I had cramps to start out with--not keeping up with my fluids Friday and Saturday.
I did do a ride with the DC Rand folks on Sunday--Glen Echo Century. We rode easy all day going thru the following areas: Poolesville, Beallsville, Point of Rocks, Waterford, Clarkes Gap, Leesburg, Ashburn, Herndon, Vienna, Falls Church, then back into DC at Georgetown, returning to Glen Echo.
It was a nice ride. The sun came out for a spell and the wind wasn't too bad--mostly a tailwind on the way back.

Scout's Prospect Rankings
DT | DE | MLB | OLB | S | CB | Scout 300
The Spring Evaluation period chock full of camps, combines, 7on7s, school visits and more is behind us, and Scout's team of scouts has been busy updating its college football prospect rankings to include a whopping 1500 prospects for the Class of 2013.
Quarterbacks on the Rebound
There may not be a signature theme for the Class of 2013 the way 2012 marked the year of the offensive tackle (list) and 2008 was the year of the receiver (list), but it may be the year that the quarterback is making a comeback.
The past several classes have been lean ones for pure pocket passers, with no true No. 1 quarterback since Matt Barkley came out of Mater Dei High School in California in the Class of 2009. Meanwhile, Major League Baseball scouts have been raving about the quality of big time arms in the last two drafts chock full of high school pitchers.
It's not a huge leap to connect the dots and figure the lack of quarterbacks and the wealth of pitchers coming from the high school ranks are related. But the Class of 2013 is showing that the spread formations haven't killed off all pure passers and baseball hasn't taken all of the good arms.
It's not an exaggeration to say that the top seven quarterbacks -- led by Max Browne (6'5/215) of Skyline High School in Washington -- would have pushed for the No. 1 spot at quarterback in any of the previous three seasons. Browne is the top quarterback prospect since Barkley, and like the Heisman Trophy candidate, Brown committed to USC before his senior season.
The Class of 2013 has 29 quarterbacks in the Scout 300 while the Classes of 2012, 2011, and 2010 had 17, 18, and 19 respectively.
The Hoarders
Quarterbacks have been committing to schools before their senior seasons for years, and the Class of 2013 is no different. 21 of the top 23 quarterbacks in the nation have already made a public commitment. What is different about the Class of 2013 is the number of running backs who have already made a decision. What's also interesting is that of the top running backs, they seem to be committing to schools in pairs (see table).
|1st RB
|2nd RB
|#1 Ty Isaac
|#3 Justin Davis
|#2 Keith Ford
|#8 Greg Bryant
|#4 Thomas Tyner
|#11 Dontre Wilson
|Ohio State
|#6 Jalin Marshall
|#10 Ezekiel Elliot
|#12 Altee Tenpenny
|#16 Tyren Jones
The debate for top running back in the country is going to be a strong one.
On paper, USC looks like the runaway winner with two of the top three prospects,
but when teams are signing this caliber of talent in bunches, they're just as
likely to end up with the best overall running back as the difference between No. 1
and No. 16 just isn't that wide.
Get ready, We're coming
The Class 2012 saw an unprecedented number of offensive linemen ranked in the Scout 300 with 49 players making the list, including an amazing 11 rated as five-stars. The Class of 2013 is bringing the defensive linemen, including the nation's No. 1 prospect, Robert Nkemdiche (6'4/270). All told there are 57 defensive linemen in the Scout 300, and it's particularly deep at defensive tackle with 31 players compared with just 20 last year.
An Early Start
With more information available than ever, the recruiting process is starting earlier and earlier every year. In previous years the evaluation and recruiting process didn't even truly begin until the summer camp season started and coaches got to see their recruits on campus in person. The summer camp season has yet to begin, but 500 ranked prospects have already made their announcement and more than half (162) of the Scout 300 has already committed.
Buyer Beware
With 16- and 17-year-old kids being pressured into making decisions before they're ready for fear of losing a spot to another player, the other continuing upward trend will be players decommitting as they get more informed about the process and have more time to make a decision.
A Never-Ending Process
Scout began ranking the Class of 2013 in September of 2011. Rankings continue to expand and get updated as more players are seen, and other players mature or fail to mature. While at times it can feel like the recruiting process is over by the summer, the Scouting process will continue right through the summer camp season, senior seasons, and all-star games before being finalized in January of 2013.

As the Western Hemisphere was slumbering, news from Singapore was lighting up Twitter as our senior executives took the stage at the IBM InterConnect conference to talk about some of the latest announcements from the IBM corporation on innovation and a Smarter Planet.
Much of the reporting has been done on Twitter (hashtag #IBMInterConnect) and these keynotes are available on the LiveStream including an amazing speech by Dr. Michio Kaku about the future of computers ("everywhere and nowhere").*
These are supplemented by interviews conducted by Todd "Turbo Todd" Watson, also on the LiveStream.
Since this event was focused on a Smarter Planet (the entire IBM portfolio), we covered a lot of ground. Big Data. Social. Mobility. And, of course, cloud.
For SmartCloud Foundation, the Tivoli organization has a number of exciting solutions that are designed to help you increase the levels of innovation you provide to your clients.
For this blog, I thought it'd be good to focus on three of the new solutions you might not have seen before that are going to help you in building out your private cloud.
IBM SmartCloud Cost Management is one of the key components in transforming IT from a "cost center" to an innovation center by providing levels of visibility, and transparency, to the IT costs associated with your cloud. Measure, analyze, report, and invoice the utilization and costs of physical, virtualized, and cloud computing resources, storage and network resources, applications, and other non-IT cost drivers.
IBM SmartCloud Patch Management combines the benefits of two solutions, IBM Endpoint Manager for Patch Management and IBM SmartCloud Provisioning, to provide an effective entry point that delivers lower costs and improves the visibility and control of physical, virtual, and cloud environments.
Finally, the IBM SmartCloud Virtual Storage Center is a solution that you might have seen us talk about at Pulse 2012 and it's now an exciting addition to the portfolio. This solution helps IT storage managers migrate to an agile cloud-based storage environment and manage it effectively without having to replace existing storage systems. If you're looking to increase your storage efficiency in cloud, but don't have the checkbook to do a "rip and replace" of your entire infrastructure, you need to be looking at this solution.
There's more going on in Singapore over the next two days, and more discussion of SmartCloud Foundation and IBM Smarter Planet. Stay tuned to Twitter and the LiveStream and feel free to post comments below.
* I have to confess that this blog was delayed because I got sucked into watching the keynotes.


text: I ran into the following issue when migrating about 20 users from Exchange to Zimbra, using the migration tool. For at least one of the users (I haven't asked any others yet), their colors for their calendar items were not correctly migrated, instead, they get a bunch of gibberish for their location field on all their items. Any idea on what might be causing this? The Exchange version is Exchange 2000 on Windows Server 2000, and the Zimbra version is the latest.

Music returned to Kempton this past weekend at the newly created Kempton Music Center.
The Mickey Hart Band, which includes a member of the Grateful dead, began the concert series with openers Mysterytrain and African Showboyz.
�We are doing all of this to help raise money for the Community Center,� said Kempton Community Center Board of Directors member Rob Hunt in an earlier interview.
Fans turned out for the show, despite the at times miserable weather, set to have a good time and many decked out in tie-dye and Grateful Dead shirts.
�Music is the communication of life. No matter what kind of mood you�re in or what kind of people you�re around, music brings a smile to your face,� said Hunt.
Fans of all ages found a place in the newly restored pavilion and enjoyed meeting new friends and catching up with old ones before and between the acts. The number of people dancing grew as the night went on and by the end of the set by African Showboyz, the crowd was eagerly awaiting the Mickey Hart Band.
�We have a long night ahead of us and we�re all waiting for Mickey so you�re not the only ones,� said a member of Mysterytrain toward the end of their set.
Fans were packed rows deep as the Mickey Hart Band took the stage and joined in with the last song by African Showboyz. Cheers could barely be heard over the sound of the music as lights flashed across the stage.
Hart was surrounded by percussion instruments during the more than two hour long set that included some Grateful Dead favorites. Crystal Monee Hall was on vocals.
�We are a family run business with one goal in mind � to have our patrons leave our music events with a smile and a desire to return,� said Hunt.
The Hunt Family of Muhlenberg Township renovated the rooms for the entertainers including a private bathroom for each room and volunteers power washed and painted the pavilion�s exterior which had not been done for 57 years. The renovation process began early this year.
Hunt established Flagship Music Production in 2011 which books the acts for the venue.
�Plusvibes� provided security for the fenced in pavilion.
The Kempton Community & Recreational Center provided homemade food dishes for patrons. Beer and wine stands were also available.
Fans were able to park without a fee. Overnight camping was also an option that a large number of attendees took advantage of with campers and tents set up with various products.
For more information and a list of events, visit www.kemptonmusiccenter.com.

STEUBENVILLE - The Steubenville boys' basketball team kepts its hold of second place in the Ohio Valley Athletic Conference Class 4A standings behind St. Clairsville with a 77-49 victory against Weir on Tuesday night inside the Crimson Center.
''We knew Weir was going to come out and give us everything that they had,'' Big Red coach Mike Haney said. ''We just needed to be sure we were ready for them.''
They were.
''Our kids came out right from the tip and played with a lot of intensity,'' Haney said. ''Tajuan Lawson had a good game for us. He had 10 points in the first quarter for us by taking the ball to the basket. I thought we were passing the ball well, sharing with one another.
''I like our hustle and especially our unselfishness. Whoever is open has to be ready for the ball because we're going to share it.''
Big Red leaped out to a 31-11 lead after eight minutes and never looked back.
''This is my 14th year as head coach and this is, by far, the best Big Red team I've seen,'' Weir coach Mike Granato said. ''This is a team that reminds me of the old Big Red teams when I was a kid, when coach (Chuck) Watt was coaching them. They played eight, nine, 10 guys and they were all pretty much the same size with the same speed.
''They shoot the ball well and have great athleticism. I think Mike has done a great job with them and they deserve a lot of credit.
''There is no question about it that they get after you. I think they are playing great team basketball beyond anything else. You talk to other coaches and they all talk about Big Red's defense and their ball pressure. I think the thing that jumps out at me more than any of those other things is their ball movement offensively.''
Steubenville's Adam Sterling led the way with a game-high 19 points. Lawson added 18, Mylik Young 10 and Brandon Herring-Hill nine.
Mike Curtis paced the Red Riders with 12 points. Andre Sims added 11 and Shane Davis eight.
''What was encouraging is that we were 18-for-40 from the field, the best we have shot all year,'' Granato said. ''The second thing that was most encouraging, was that we really looked for each other in the second half. It may not seem like that big of a deal, but in the fourth quarter no one was in there trying to get theirs."

Experts attending a week-long meeting of the National Transportation Safety Board in Baltimore did their best to convince conspiracy theorists that last July's crash of TWA Flight 800 was due to mechanical failure. NTSB officials released thousands of pages of documents, screened several computer animations, and gave frightening new details of the last seconds of the doomed plane. In Paducah, Ky., a much younger investigation also failed to produce evidence of a conspiracy. Although the local sheriff said he believed others knew in advance about the attack, 14-year-old Michael Carneal is now considered the only suspect in the prayer-meeting shooting that killed three high-schoolers. Because he used a firearm to commit a serious felony, Mr. Carneal will be tried as an adult, but Kentucky law forbids the death penalty for anyone under the age of 16.
Ecumenical Muslims?
Iran last week hosted a three-day conference to promote unity among the world's 1 billion Muslims. With delegates from 55 nations in attendance, the meeting was seen as a bid by Iran to regain international stature and to convince its skeptical neighbors-especially Saudi Arabia-that they have nothing to fear from the radical Islamic republic. But speeches by Iran's two highest-ranking leaders left very different impressions of the country's position. Moderate President Mohammed Khatemi, elected last year in an unexpected landslide, called for the protection of religious minorities and urged his fellow leaders to learn from the West. Meanwhile, Ayatollah Ali Khameini, the country's supreme leader, blasted the sins of the arrogant West, warned the U.S. to pull its warships out of the "Islamic sea" (Persian Gulf), and insisted that Islam is the world's "only remedial, curative, and savior angel."
Choosing sides
The Massachusetts Supreme Court ruled unanimously on Tuesday that a divorced father who became a Christian cannot share his newfound beliefs with his children if it alienates them from their Orthodox Jewish mother. A court-appointed guardian found that two of Jeffrey Kendall's three children were suffering "stress" because he was exposing them to Christian teaching while their mother, who gained custody after a 1994 divorce, wanted to raise them in the Jewish faith. The court agreed, ruling that Mr. Kendall cannot take the children to church where they would be told that non-Christians are "destined to burn in hell," in the words of Judge Neil Lynch, who wrote the decision. Mr. Kendall's lawyer denounced the ruling, noting that the court had essentially chosen the mother's religion over the father's. "The court effectively has established a religion for these three children," said Michael Greco. "That's the court intruding where it shouldn't be intruding."
Through the motions
White House officials made it clear last week they'd weighed the pros and cons of defying the Senate and were committed to move ahead with a recess appointment of Bill Lann Lee to become the government's top civil-rights enforcer. President Clinton had debated for weeks with his aides whether to jeopardize his harmonious relationship with Republicans by placing his nominee on the job without Senate approval, possible because Congress is in recess. That was before a letter from Sen. Robert Byrd (D-W.Va.) warning the president of the political danger he risks in making the recess appointment. Republicans vowed to treat such a move as "a declaration of war," as Sen. Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) put it. Nevertheless, as decision day neared, White House officials kept up their campaign to pressure Republicans. But it was clear that was merely a pro forma prelude to the recess appointment, which would give Mr. Lee the job without Senate confirmation for two years. "It will allow us to say we tried every which way to do it with regular order," an unidentified White House official told The Washington Post. The philosophical argument over Mr. Lee centers on the nominee's embrace of racial preferences and quotas, which Supreme Court rulings have held are unconstitutional. Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Orrin Hatch said last week "it's time to draw the line" and block the controversial nominee. Democrats blocked a vote on Mr. Lee to become assistant attorney general for civil rights just before Congress adjourned for the year, fearing the nomination would be killed at the committee level.
Presidential Christmas list
President Clinton went Christmas shopping in New York for campaign cash for Democrats and for personal gifts for family and friends. After lunch, he dropped $400 on jewelry and purchased three soft-sided leather briefcases and some trinkets. The president also got three sweaters at cost, and the manager threw in three for free. That night at a $10,000 per couple fundraiser, political donors were even more generous, giving close to $1 million for Democratic candidates. The day before, Mr. Clinton marked the 50th anniversary of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights with a speech to a group of diplomats and foreign-policy wonks. As The Washington Post described it, White House spinmeisters billed the 15-minute address as the president's "most comprehensive exposition yet" of his foreign policy views. Mr. Clinton noted "human rights are still at risk from Burma to Nigeria, from Belarus to China." In New York, Mr. Clinton said, "We continue speaking out for human rights without arrogance or apology. As long as America is determined to stand for human rights, then free people all around the world will choose to stand with America." After berating human-rights-abusing nations, Mr. Clinton turned self-critical. Among America's human-rights "challenges," he said, were hate crimes and "continuing discrimination." As a prescription, he made a pitch for a homosexual civil-rights bill, the Employment Non-Discrimination Act. The Post reported the remark was "not in the prepared text distributed to reporters ahead of time." Prior to the trip, the president met at the White House with newly released Chinese dissident Wei Jingsheng, which irked Chinese communist officials. Mr. Wei spent about half an hour with the president and met with reporters afterward to provide some details of the chat. He said he warned Mr. Clinton not to be deceived by promises from Chinese communists. Mr. Wei explained to reporters why that warning was necessary: "They can make any promise and go back on any promise." Mr. Wei reported Mr. Clinton "listened and smiled" as the longtime dissident gave his advice.
Green compromise
Environmental delegates from 150 nations meeting in Kyoto, Japan, signed onto a historic-and controversial-pact after working through the night last Wednesday. Designed to reverse the purported global warming trend, the agreement ended 11 days of often bitter debate. President Clinton had earlier vowed to order American companies to reduce emissions of carbon dioxide and other "greenhouse gases" to their 1990 levels, but European delegates pushed for cuts of 15 percent below those levels. After a one-day appearance by Vice President Gore, U.S. delegates turned more aggressive, eventually agreeing to meet the Europeans halfway: 7 percent reductions from a 1990 baseline. "Developing" countries such as China and India were not held to any binding emissions agreements, though they burn huge quantities of fossil fuels without the "scrubbing" technologies prevalent in the West. The Energy Department has estimated that both industry and consumers will have to reduce energy usage by as much as one-third in order to meet the emissions targets by 2012. President Clinton has promised $1 billion annually for new technology that he says will make those cuts painless, but Republican critics predict nothing but a punitive tax will beat energy-users into submission. They also warn of huge job losses as American companies relocate operations to developing countries where they can escape the energy caps. Two-thirds of the Senate must ratify the Kyoto treaty before it can take effect, something most observers agree is unlikely.
Land of the Freeh
Washington's most poorly kept secret is that FBI director Louis Freeh opposed Janet Reno's decision not to seek an independent counsel in connection with the president's and vice president's fundraising activities. Mr. Freeh acknowledged that opposition before the House Government Reform and Oversight Committee, in a joint appearance with Ms. Reno in which the two pledged their mutual respect. The attorney general described her relationship with the FBI director as "strong and very amicable." Mr. Freeh said there was no "professional rift" over the independent counsel decision: "That two lawyers disagree should not be surprising." The battle last week was over congressional pursuit of inside details of that not-so-secret secret. Before the Reno-Freeh hearing, the House panel subpoenaed a Nov. 25 memorandum by the FBI director outlining his arguments in favor of an independent counsel. The two rebuffed the subpoena, arguing that to turn it over would jeopardize the Justice Department investigation. The next day, Mr. Freeh appeared before the committee alone. But he brought word from Ms. Reno "that her lawyers would be pleased" to discuss the release of the memo. In his testimony, Mr. Freeh insisted, despite Ms. Reno's decision earlier in the month, "no area of this investigation is closed." The FBI director said that although his gumshoes are not "being impeded," he is frustrated at the slow pace of interviews and fulfillment of document requests from the White House. "I'm not confident we have all the documents yet." Earlier in the week, White House officials illustrated Mr. Freeh's point. They released the 1996 notes-long under subpoena-of a White House aide referring to "the 'money' coffees." According to The New York Times, aide Janis Kearney's notes "recorded discussions to the effect that the election would be over before the Federal Election Commission could look into foreign contributions." Ms. Kearney quoted Leon Panetta, White House chief of staff at the time, as chuckling about Clinton-Gore fundraising plans and noting, "This will certainly help move campaign reform forward." The Times reported that the attorney general reviewed the notes before deciding not to appoint an independent counsel. An editorial in the paper criticized Ms. Reno's "specious" congressional testimony last week and said that had the attorney general been "a more curious prosecutor," she might have regarded references to "money" coffees and the "intentional skirting" of laws regulating campaign fundraising "as fitting into a chain of evidence."
The Supremes
In 1989, federal government officials accepted a plea agreement from three Oklahoma bankers charged in connection with two bank failures; the men paid more than $44,000 in fines and agreed to seek federal authorization before engaging in any future banking activities. Three years later, the three found themselves charged with conspiracy, misusing bank funds, and making false entries-all based on the same conduct that led to the first charge and fine. Is that double jeopardy? The Supreme Court last week, unanimously, said no. Separately, five justices signed an opinion further narrowing the constitutional protection against double jeopardy. Chief Justice William Rehnquist-joined by Justices Sandra Day O'Connor, Antonin Scalia, Anthony Kennedy, and Clarence Thomas-said that "only the clearest proof" will require courts to view punitive civil fines as criminal punishment that counts as double jeopardy if accompanied by other criminal charges. Meanwhile, the unanimous court expanded the rights of citizens falsely accused of crimes, rejecting a prosecutor's claim of absolute immunity from lawsuits arising from official actions. In the case from Washington state, a man jailed briefly under suspicion of burglary sued a prosecutor he said filed a false report with a court seeking an arrest warrant. He was cleared of charges the day after his night in jail.
Move over, Rodman
There was no brutal violence like that of The Basketball Diaries--the heroin-chic movie (see p. 22) that may have inspired the Kentucky killing spree--but the real world of pro basketball did provide its own anti-role model last week. Golden State Warriors' Latrell Sprewell, suspended for physically attacking coach P.J. Carlesimo, put on a contrite face for his news conference, even as he appeared with superlawyer Johnnie Cochran. Mr. Sprewell and the NBA are going to arbitration over the league's one-year suspension. Mr. Cochran called the suspension "arbitrary and capricious," and top players said they might boycott this year's All-Star game if the punishment is not reduced.
Making their mark
Michael Podguski, last year a freshman at Chesterton High School in Indiana, entered English class and found a poster showing 10 historical figures believed to be homosexual and these words: "Sexual orientation has nothing to do with the ability to make a mark, let alone make history." Young Mr. Podguski thought the poster had nothing to do with academics, let alone English. He and his parents brought a complaint about teacher Bonney Leckie's agitprop, but last week the school board rebuffed them. "If this poster gets one kid to think, if it gets one child to not categorize or stereotype people, if it gets one kid to not use that derogatory word that we all know, then I think its educational value is inarguable," said school board member Michael Griffin, who could perhaps use a lesson in how "to not" split infinitives. The school board vote was 4-1. Dissenter Dawn Rogers criticized the school board majority for "intruding on parental rights" by undermining the values the Podguskis teach at home.

2007 Royals Hall of Fame Blood Drive
We all know you bleed Royal Blue and next week we are asking you to prove it!

Held each summer while blood donations are particularly low, this year's week-long drive is especially important to the Royals as we celebrate Denny Matthews' honor as the 2007 Ford C. Frick award winner during the National Baseball Hall of Fame Induction Ceremony. Denny leaves next week for Cooperstown, N.Y. – where he'll receive his honor as one of the best baseball broadcasters in the Majors – but before he takes off, he's heading down to the Community Blood Center on 4040 Main Street on Tuesday, July 24 from 2:30-3:30 p.m. to chat with donors about the award, the Royals and donating blood. Sports Radio 810 WHB will be broadcasting live throughout the day, while mascot Sluggerrr will drop in at noon. Donors can take part in a free tailgate lunch will take place from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. and will also get two free tickets to an upcoming Royals game and a free T-shirt (while supplies last). Also, you'll get a chance to register to win a chance to sit with Denny in the radio booth during a Royals game.
So…join us and Denny next Tuesday – or stop in sometime during the week – at the Community Blood Center and give a little of your True Blue passion back to the community!

Royals come back with two in the sixth! It's 7-5! Who's giving me some love! Who's… Say, where IS everybody?
Does anyone know where I can pay for a broadcast of just one game? I have MLB Extra Innings but infuriatingly, the Royals game isn't being aired today.
Ahhh, I watched the whole thing through game channel. Totally worth it. Bring on the Yanks!

Like Ana Ivanovic, Maria Kirilenko has also made some changes in her personnel to help awaken her slumbering game.
The Russian, who fell in the first round to Sara Errani at the Aussie Open, has dumped her coach, Eric Van Harpen, for someone a little closer to home - her father Yuri Kirilenko:
It's like in the life, sometimes you feel you need to change something. Especially in sport, when something doesn't work. Eric helped me a lot, I learned a lot of new things thanks to him. We are still good friends with him and his daughter Laura.Good news Kiri fans! It seems she's never had a clear idea of what her strengths and weaknesses are and, therefore, never had a solid game plan when taking the court. Hopefully, this new arrangement will spark new energy for the petite lady baller.
And, thanks to DtL reader Damien for tipping me off to Kiri's thoughts on her upcoming spread in this month's Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue:
I have very good memories of the photo shooting for Sports Illustrated. I went to Dominican Republic with my mother. I was there for three days and I had a great time ! All days on the beach posing :-) I can tell I was busy all the days but it was so nice ! A great team worked with me. The great photographer Walter Iooss, I think it is a greatest photographer I ever work with. So, I can't wait when the pictures come out ! There are coming 15th of February I guess.Here we go again. I'll be curious to see if this lady baller can pull off the whole modeling/sex kitten moment.

I am currently evaluating several services from Mac OS X SL server which do allow to use external calendars instead of using the internal Mac OS X CalDAV server.
Right now, I figured out that it is possible to configure such in Mac OS X server > Server Admin > Web > Settings > Wiki > External Web Services > Configure > Web Calendars > Calendar Server: zimbra.domain.com/prinicpals/users (SSL: yes).
After logging into my account in Mac OS X and clicking "calendar", everything seems to be fine as the website will ask me for the username and password for the area "Zimbra" using a basic authentication. I would even confirm the authentication seems to work as I get asked again providing wrong credentials. As soon as I enter my proper credentials for Zimbra the Mac OS X server seems trying to read my calendar from Zimbra - without ever finishing... (Getting events from server...).
Did someone ever try & succeed to read Zimbra calendars to be displayed in Mac OS X websites? Probably a certificate (self signed) issue?
Unfortunately I have not yet found a logfile which could tell me what is going on.

Yahoo has nicknamed Hailee Steinfeld "the hardest working 16-year-old in Hollywood" and for good reason. This well-earned title may have a thing or two to do with this quarter-Filipina actress being scheduled to appear in 10 films between now and next year. Suddenly, we feel pounds of guilt for ever complaining about our "busy schedules."
At the age of 13, Steinfeld rose to fame with her role as Mattie Ross in the 2010 film True Grit. The young actress gained an unbelievable 10 Oscar nominations for that role alone– an achievement that actors well into adulthood strive for.
Much to the surprise of her new fans, Steinfeld disappeared for a few years after True Grit. She tells Yahoo that she was simply waiting for the right project. As it turns out, although we have not seen her on the big screen since True Grit, the young actress has been keeping herself busy through her teenage years and has found a heap of projects that are worthy. Clearly, we never should have doubted her.
One of these much-anticipated projects is already available for you to check out. Steinfeld stars as Juliet in the latest adaptation of Romeo and Juliet directed by Carlo Carlei. And next month, Steinfeld will hit us with another anticipated film Ender's Game. Acting alongside Harrison Ford, Steinfeld will bring the popular science fiction novel to life.
Check out the trailer for Romeo and Juliet below and stay tuned for more updates on this amazing actress.

Backup generators should be required countywide
(Page 3 of 3)
The Association of Service Stations and Repair Shops, meanwhile, said it could live with generator mandates if its members were given incentives. An unfunded generator ordinance, they say, would sink station owners who are getting by on razor-thin profit margins.
The town's ordinance mandates generators without offering any incentives. Nassau County is offering stations incentives — without requiring them to carry generators. There is a clear disparity that needs to be eliminated.
Forcing stations to have generators on hand will not singlehandedly solve the problems another massive power outage would create, but it would certainly go a long way toward preventing hours-long lines. The Town of Hempstead took action. Nassau County should do the same.
