JUNEAU, Alaska — Negligent homicide and other charges against the sole survivor of a deadly 2010 Coast Guard helicopter crash should be dismissed, an investigating officer has determined.
Capt. Andrew Norris, in recommendations obtained by The Associated Press, said he doesn't conclude that Lt. Lance Leone was faultless during the flight. But Norris said the charges against him — negligent homicide, dereliction of duty and destroying military property — focus on alleged navigational failures by Leone and tie those to the destruction of a helicopter and death of two crew members.
"It is in this focus, and in making this tie, that I believe the charged offenses fail," he wrote.
Norris' recommendations will be reviewed by the Coast Guard commander in Alaska, Rear Admiral Thomas Ostebo. He is not bound by them.
Leone, who has earned a long list of Coast Guard awards and accolades, including commendation medals, was co-pilot of the MH-60 Jayhawk helicopter flying from Astoria, Ore., to the crew's base in Sitka, Alaska, when it hit an unmarked span of low-hanging wires and crashed off LaPush, Wash., in July 2010, killing three.
The negligent homicide charges were related to the deaths of crew members Brett Banks and Adam C. Hoke. Leone did not face a charge related to the death of the pilot, Lt. Sean Krueger.
Prosecutors, during a military hearing last month, argued that Leone did not fulfill his duties, which included acting as a navigator and safety officer, and should face court martial. Leone's civilian defense attorney, John Smith, countered that the Coast Guard had "set a trap" by not marking the power lines that the aircraft hit.
The crash's lead investigator called the lines a contributing factor but also said there was no reason for the aircraft to be flying so low. The prosecution maintained there was no requirement that the lines be marked because they were below 200 feet.
The wires, the site of at least two other accidents, were the responsibility of the Coast Guard. They sloped from 190 feet to about 36 feet. At the time of the 2010 crash, marking balls were pooled near a pole, above land, at the low point, not along the span. The helicopter hit at about 114 feet, according to testimony and the court record.
Smith said Leone had programmed the helicopter on a track that would have missed the wires, but Krueger deviated from that, dropping in altitude as he flew over a Coast Guard vessel in the channel. Seconds later, the aircraft struck the wires.
Norris said he doesn't believe that a reasonable navigator would have identified, through study of charts, hazards reasonably close by that would have posed no threat to the helicopter along its planned route.
Norris said Leone and Krueger discussed navigational aspects of a feature about 10 minutes before the crash, making clear, he said, that Leone was consulting a navigational chart or charts at the time. Referencing the hearing transcript, Norris said Krueger's plan to deviate from the flight plan was unexpected and unannounced. Leone didn't provide verbal navigational information at that point.
"As it is inconceivable that the accused would have failed to have provided such warnings had he known of the hazard, it is reasonable to conclude that the accused did not know of, or discover the presence of, the wires before the helicopter flew into them," Norris said.
Norris also investigated whether Leone was derelict in his duty for not advising Krueger that they were flying too low at certain points in the flight and recommending a rise in altitude. This arose during the hearing, and prosecutors said they did not seek the new charge.
Norris, in his report, said he believes "reasonable grounds do exist" to believe Leone "committed the crime of negligent dereliction of duty" for not questioning or speaking up about the altitude.

At any time of the day or night we can call on Jesus.
He is always waiting, listening for our call.
What a wonderful blessing.
No phone needed, no e-mails, just a whisper.
Lord you gave me life and the gift of freedom.
Through Your love I exist in this world.
May I never take the gift of life for granted.
May I always respect the right to life of others.
In God's loving presence I unwind the past day,
starting from now and looking back, moment by moment.
I gather in all the goodness and light, in gratitude.
I attend to the shadows and what they say to me,
seeking healing, courage, forgiveness.
After this Jesus went about in Galilee. He did not wish to go about in Judea because the Jews were looking for an opportunity to kill him. Now the Jewish festival of Booths was near.
But after his brothers had gone to the festival, then he also went, not publicly but as it were in secret.
Now some of the people of Jerusalem were saying, 'Is not this the man whom they are trying to kill? And here he is, speaking openly, but they say nothing to him! Can it be that the authorities really know that this is the Messiah? Yet we know where this man is from; but when the Messiah comes, no one will know where he is from.' Then Jesus cried out as he was teaching in the temple, 'You know me, and you know where I am from. I have not come on my own. But the one who sent me is true, and you do not know him. I know him, because I am from him, and he sent me.' Then they tried to arrest him, but no one laid hands on him, because his hour had not yet come.
How has God's Word moved me?
Has it left me cold?
Has it consoled me or moved me to act in a new way?
I imagine Jesus standing or sitting beside me,
I turn and share my feelings with him.
Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit,
As it was in the beginning,
is now and ever shall be,
world without end.
If you appreciated the daily prayer or have any suggestions or insights we will be glad to hear from you.

Prepping clips for editing
Prepping clips for editing
So you're almost ready to begin editing and here's what's going to happen. You're going to want to throw some clips together and listen to them. But when you throw in xylophone music or some audio that's screaming at you, you might be a little shocked and won't enjoy the fruits of your editing labor. To ensure there are no surprises waiting for you in your first project viewing, let's weed into the screening process, the extra step of prepping your clips. As you screen and organize clips in the browser, you're going to become aware of certain things.
For example, this is a clip of Ben. Let's just listen to him for a second. (Video Playing) Ben: The farmers of Peace Kawomera grow what's known in the world of coffee as a Bugisu Arabica. Diana Weynand: While this may sound fine to you, take a closer look at those audio levels. I see some yellow and I see a few red peaks in there. So it might be worthwhile to take a closer look and go ahead and get that...

Latest update July 29th, 2016 12:55 AM
Aug 26, 2011 Features / Columnists, Peeping Tom 0
Not so long ago, a condemned building was destroyed by fire. As a result a number of persons who were unlawful tenants were left homeless.
The place was a virtual squatters' mansion with dozens of persons unlawfully occupying the property. Those affected by the fire received help from the government, private organizations and citizens. Plans were made to assist them obtaining house lots. Some of them took up that offer but others were not really interested in moving.
They wanted to stay right where they were even though they were being given the option of owning their own home. Not all of them were interested in owning their own home. They wanted to live free on someone else's property. They wanted to live under the burnt-out building, oblivious to the dangers that were being posed.
Just after the fire, there were criticisms that were levelled at the local municipality for their failure to demolish the condemned structure.
Then something out of the ordinary happened. Following the destruction, there was an incident involving some of the former occupants and someone who claimed to have an interest in the property.
An official turned up and he was reported in the media as telling those who had moved back onto the premises that they should not remove since the records at the municipality had someone else as owning the property.
Now what business was it of that official to make that thoughtless intervention? Regardless of whose name appears in the rates and taxes records of Town Hall, the question of who should remain on the site has nothing to do with the municipality, and in fact, that statement should not have been made because even if the said person as reflected in the council's register is the owner, this does not give anyone the right to go on the premises without the owner's permission, for that constitutes trespassing.
Many years ago, there was a big fire in Tiger Bay, and a number of buildings were destroyed. These properties have owners, but even if the owners desired to take up possession of those properties, they could not do so, because in a jiffy squatters took up residence on the burnt-out spot. And this is in the heart of the city.
It is against this background that one has to greet the recent news that a decision has been taken to demolish a number of buildings which have been condemned and which pose a threat to life and limb.
While this news is welcome, one wonders just what will be the practical effect of these measures. Unless the owners are contacted, and prepared to fence off their properties almost immediately upon demolition, then what is likely to happen is that when the buildings come down, new persons will simply go and squat on the land.
Right now, persons who live overseas and own properties in Guyana are between a rock and a hard place. On the one hand, they are fearful of renting their properties to tenants because sometimes you may not get the right tenants and the next thing you know is that when you are ready for your property you cannot gain possession, unless you take the tenants to court.
Some persons have resorted to allowing others to live in their homes rent-free, so as to make it easier, but when the time comes there is still a long drawn-out process involved. As such, many homeowners prefer to simply leave their homes unoccupied, and with just someone to oversee the property.
This is, however, becoming a huge risk in Guyana these days, because there are vagrants who are walking around the country looking for unoccupied houses. They either occupy them in droves or vandalize the building, piece by piece.
You can have the most posh of buildings and within weeks of leaving it unoccupied, return to find that what you had left behind is gone. Then the building is stripped naked. By the time you know what hit you, a mult-million-dollar building is worth nothing.
Many persons work all their lives to acquire a property and it is patently unfair for them to have to suffer these sorts of invasions. Laws are therefore needed to make squatting and trespassing, at least in respect to home occupations, a criminal offence.
All the rich societies in the world are built upon the protection of private property. Unless, therefore, there are functioning laws that help protect private property against summary usurpation and vandalism, then Guyana will remain poor.

Firms like what3words, Fetchr and OkHi try to link sellers to the many customers who have no address.
The new era in Silicon Valley centers on artificial intelligence and robots, a transformation that many believe will have a payoff on the scale of the personal computing industry or the commercial internet, two previous generations that spread computing globally. Computers have begun to speak, listen and see, as well as sprout legs, wings and wheels to move unfettered in the world. The shift was evident in a Lowe's home improvement store here this month, when a prototype inventory checker developed by Bossa Nova Robotics silently glided through the aisles using computer vision to automatically perform a task that humans have done manually for centuries.
Firms like what3words, Fetchr and OkHi try to link sellers to the many customers who have no address.
IBM's launch of a blockchain cloud platform for supply chain applications pushes the distributed online ledger technology beyond the financial services industry, where the technology is used by banks and exchanges to track financial transactions. Startup Everledger, which helps companies track the provenance of diamonds worldwide, is testing IBM Blockchain.
Clark-Cutler-McDermott (CCM) produced 175 parts for GM and is the Detroit auto maker's only supplier of certain interior and acoustic insulation parts. The 115-year-old company has been a General Motors "Supplier of the Year" four times in the last seven years, but has absorbed losses of $12 million since 2013. The company filed for bankruptcy protection on July 7, saying it was losing $30,000 a day as a result of its contract with GM. GM said supply disruptions caused by CCM's bankruptcy and refusal to deliver parts and finished inventory threatened to cause disruptions at 19 GM assembly plants in North America and cost it tens of millions of dollars.
The story for the 2015 market for supply chain management (SCM) software, maintenance and services is a tale of two currencies. Measured in current currency—that is a comparison of results based on currency values for 2014 and 2015—the market grew by about 2.8% to $10.145 billion. That total includes applications for supply chain execution (SCE) (+3.4%), supply chain planning (SCP) (+3%) and, for the third year in a row, procurement software (+1.9%), which is increasingly integrated with supply chain management. Growth is growth in a tough economy, but 2.8% is not much more than last year's yield on a 10-year treasury note. If you look at the market in constant currency, you get a different story. Now, that $10.145 billion translates into an 11% gain, or the equivalent of a pretty good growth stock. Individually, SCE grew by 11%, SCP grew by 11.3% and procurement grew by 10.8%.
Boeing and Airbus last year built a combined 1,352 jetliners. According to their production plans, the two intend to build 33% more each year by 2020, or around 1,800 planes, rivaling the burst of large-aircraft production last seen in World War II. The world's biggest plane makers are digging deep into the technology toolbox using robots, drones and exoskeletons to deliver what they have promised as well as cut costs.
Clothing retailer Gap Inc is localizing the way it prices inventory in its network of retail stores using a cloud-based optimization system.
The retailer built a reputation and hit $100 billion in annual revenue by offering deals. The first thing a potential customer saw was a bargain: how much an item was reduced from its list price. Now, in many cases, Amazon has dropped any mention of a list price. There is just one price. Take it or leave it.
Retailers including Home Depot, Target and Walmart are cutting their in-store inventory because of the high cost and their financial challenges. Any reduction in the level of capital tied up in unsold goods frees up resources to invest elsewhere, such as building out online operations or covering wage increases. But destocking isn't without risk. Bare shelves are a major annoyance to shoppers who take the time to go into stores to shop.
For more than 100 years, the canal has been a vital artery nourishing the world economy, a testament to American engineering and one of the signature public works of the 20th century. The new locks, built by Panama without help from other governments, were sold to the nation and the world as a way to ensure that the canal remained as much of a lifeline in the hyperglobalized 21st century as it was in the last.
Clothing retailer Gap Inc is localising the way it prices inventory in its network of retail stores using a cloud-based optimisation system.
Omni-channel customers buy and return goods online or via physical stores, and expect excellent service regardless of how they receive their purchases, meeting these expectations requires inventory to be visible and available globally.
As both companies face stalling growth, the big-box retailer challenges the consumer-products giant with more store brands, lower prices and less shelf space
Nine policies that could spark new growth in factory jobs and the economic benefits they bring
Transparency begets data, which begets efficiency. Smarter shipping shrinks the physical world the way faster internet shrinks the digital one. New businesses emerge. High bandwidth connections paved the way for Netflix. Now Flexport could make meatspace merchants as nimble as Amazon.
Walmart, the country's largest retailer, is testing the use of flying drones to handle inventory at its large warehouses, which supply the thousands of Walmart stores throughout the nation. In six to nine months, the company said, the machines may be used in one or more of its distribution centers.
Ebay differentiates its customer value from Amazon – focuses on making online auction site more personalized and will not compete on speedy deliveries. "I don't have to be like Amazon, I don't have to be like anyone else," said Mr. Wenig at the Code Conference. "I'd rather have a billion unique items that arrive in three days than a billion commodity items that arrive in an hour."

IMPORTANT! - Fluoride Linked to #1 Cause of Death in New Research
Poster Handle
Post Content
Groundbreaking new research has linked sodium fluoride to cardiovascular disease, the leading cause of death worldwide. Researchers found that fluoride consumption directly stimulates the hardening of your arteries, a condition known as atherosclerosis that is highly correlated with the #1 killer.
Sodium fluoride is currently added to the water supply of many cities worldwide, despite extreme opposition from health professionals and previous studies linking it to decreased IQ and infertility.
Government Admits Dangers Yet Continues to Pump Fluoride Into Your Water Supply
Over 24 other studies have unanimously concluded that fluoride negatively impacts cognitive function. In addition to these 24 studies focusing on cognition, over 100 animal studies have linked fluoride to an increase in male infertility, diabetes, and a whole host of other health problems.
In the latest study on cognition, it was found that that 28% of the children who lived in an area where fluoride levels were low achieved the highest test scores.

This is the kind of information that should be linked on some of the blackout sites for SOPA tomorrow.
This will start waking people up (as they will be pissed when their sites aren't working) about how we are being lied to, poisoned, and never getting the right information from the MSM. The general public will be more open to alternative media articles and information for FLOURIDE (which is added to most peoples water who will visit the SOPA sites)...along with chemtrails, GMO information, etc.

The son of the couple at the center of the sex scandal that has engulfed Sen. John Ensign was being paid by the National Republican Senatorial Committee in 2008 at the same time his mother was having an affair with the Nevada Republican.
Both Doug and Cynthia Hampton were already working in senior positions for Ensign when their son Brandon Hampton was hired to do "research policy consulting" for the NRSC in March 2008. The younger Hampton, 19, was paid $5,400 before he left the Ensign office in August last year, Federal Election Commission records show.
That means during March and April 2008, three members of the Hampton family were working for Ensign. Both Doug and Cynthia Hampton stopped working for Ensign at the end of April 2008.
And it appears that the Hamptons aren't happy with Ensign and will be speaking out soon:
A former campaign staffer for Sen. John Ensign is confirming her involvement in an extramarital affair.
Daniel Albregts, a Las Vegas lawyer for the couple, says that Doug and Cindy Hampton confirm that they are the couple Ensign referred to during his news briefing Tuesday.
Albregts calls it unfortunate that the senator chose to air what the lawyer calls "this very personal matter, especially after the Hamptons did everything possible to keep this matter private." The lawyer says the Hamptons will be ready and willing to tell their side of the story at some point in the future.

In Havana, the past year has been marked by a parade of bold-faced names from the north — John Kerry reopening the United States Embassy; Andrew Cuomo bringing a delegation of American business leaders; celebrities ranging from Joe Torre, traveling on behalf of Major League Baseball to oversee an exhibition game between the Tampa Bay Rays and the Cuban national team, to Jimmy Buffett, said to be considering opening one of his Margaritaville restaurants there. All this culminated with a three-day trip in March by Barack Obama, the first American president to visit Cuba since Calvin Coolidge in 1928. But to those who know the city well, perhaps nothing said as much about the transformation of political relations between the United States and Cuba that began in December 2014 as a concert in the Tribuna Antiimperialista.

Web Motion for Beginners: Create a Preloader
Behold the lowly gif animation: it's making a comeback on the web, appearing as a preloader, or indicator that site content is loading. Join Tom Green, as he shows you how to make your own GIF-based preloader in this installment of Web Motion for Beginners. You'll learn how to export a series of fireworks-style explosions from After Effects, create an animated GIF in Photoshop or Fireworks (your choice), and make the GIF usable as a preloader in Edge Animate.
- Subject:
- Web
- Software:
- After Effects Fireworks Photoshop Edge Animate
- Author:
- Tom Green
Project overview and plan
- [Voiceover] Behold, the lowly GIF animation. Key to the secrets of the universe. Home of the elusive LOL cat. Bringer of the knowledge around how ice cream sandwiches are made. Though the lowly GIF has had a few rough years, it is making a remarkable comeback in the web universe. Used extensively for example by NASA as you saw to show us the marvels of the universe. The animated GIF is now being used to entertain and explain and with the rise of motion graphics on the web, they are reappearing as pre loaders.
Merrily spinning away as the site's content loads into the browser. In this project, we're going to be creating a pre loader. But it won't be your usual spinning ball countdown timer or other common animation. We're going to use exploding fireworks. Before we start, it is important to know the limitations of the format. It will help you as you produce the assets. First off, the GIF format uses a limited color palette. This means you only get to use 256 colors or less.
Now the upside of this of course is small file size. Solid colors, not gradients are best suited to the GIF format. Gradients tend to band a process called tethering. As the gradient colors are shifted to their nearest equivalents in the limited GIF color palette. This also explains why photographs are rarely rarely as clear in the GIF format as the are in the JPEG. An animated GIF is closer to a flip book than a video. This means each image in the sequence needs to be loaded and rendered by the browser.
This is why the typical duration of an animated GIF is usually around two to three seconds. Also, size matters. Keep in mind each image loads in sequence so you have to keep the dimensions small. About 100 by 100 pixels or smaller to speed up the download and on screen rendering. Also reduce the colors used to reduce the file size. So what's the plan? We are going to create the fireworks explosions in After Effects, though any application that creates particle effects can be used.
We'll work with three colors. Red, green, and blue for the explosions and keep the physical dimensions of the GIF to 100 by 100 pixels. We are going to output the project from After Effects and use two imaging applications, Fireworks and Photoshop to do the same thing. Which is basically create the animated GIF using the output from Adobe After Effects. Again, any application that creates an animated GIF can be used here. The animated GIF is then going to be placed in Edge Animate as a pre loader.

After the first correct move by white, there is an explanation of what white actually did in the game, and why it was bad.
This explanation contains an error, and I don't understand the explanation.
The error is: "18 ... Nxg5" is mentioned in the explanation, but there is no peice to capture on g5.
The explanation from the lesson is included in the diagram below. Assuming they mean 'Ng5' instead of 'Nxg5', is the rook capture for white not worth having the king so out and vulnerable? (Is there a mate threat looming?)

Fabio Cannavaro believes that Napoli will have difficulty replacing Edinson Cavani.
The Uruguay international looks set to depart the Serie A club, with Ligue 1 champions Paris Saint-Germain leading the race for his signature.
And Cannavaro, who had a three-year spell at the Naples side from 1992-95, believes that the club's supporters would be frustrated to see the 26-year-old leave.
"When a player like Cavani leaves, after they have already lost (Ezequiel) Lavezzi last year, it is clear there is great disappointment because there are signals that suggest you do not think of the future," Cannavaro said during a function at the City of Science, Naples.
"The fans rightly want to win the league, want to win the cup and always hope to achieve the best."
On who could fill the void left by Cavani should he depart, Cannavaro added: "Replacing Cavani? It's not easy. (Edin) Dzeko I think would be the right choice, but it is not easy."
Cavani featured on 34 occasions for Napoli last season, contributing 29 goals as they secured a second-placed finish in Serie A.

4x4 Gyroscope Clinometer HD
De Leland Roys
Abra o iTunes para comprar e baixar apps.
** On the front page of iTunes! - "On the Road" best apps! **
Now fully retooled to support the Retina display of the New iPad!
** New! Added all new truck choices, including Toyota, I listened to your feedback!
A Clinometer (a.k.a Inclinometer) made just for the iPad and its Gyroscope! This is the real thing, using the true Gyroscope. Watch the smooth and fluid motion of the real Gyro.
This means you NEVER need to calibrate this Clinometer when off road (like the older apps needed). Once mounted (landscape mode) on your truck, the Gyro will hold a steady indication of tilt and roll.
Before use, on level ground, mount the iPad in landscape mode on your truck, level with the dashboard. After this, no further changes are needed, it will automatically use the Gyro and gravity to know the tilt and roll of the vehicle. You can use the RESET button to level the app if your mount is non level, or needs to be at an angle.
The display has a graphic read out that shows both a picture view and a number view in degrees for quick reference. The Tilt and Roll angles are clearly visible and accurate.
Whether your truck is built for off-road only, or just for infrequent trips, you'll have fun watching the gauges on your Clinometer. In addition, it adds safety as you can see an estimate of the roll-over point!
** New Night Mode View. Based on your feedback! You can now toggle between Day and Night mode with 1 click! **
New! Added real time color changes - green - red - orange, for the Pitch and Roll values to show warning levels in color.
We are avid off road fans ourselves, and designed this app for our own fun, we hope you find it useful as well!
Requires iOS 4.3.1 (or later) update which has a Gyroscope access patch (free os update from iTunes).

I am a senior at East Hamilton High School and lately there has been a lot of discussion about annexation by the politicians running for county commissioner in District 7. Just drive anywhere in the district and you'll see Sabrena Turner signs posted at every corner claiming she's the only candidate that fought against annexation. Last night I had the opportunity to attend a debate at East Hamilton which was hosted by one of my classmates as his senior project. This debate included all of the candidates for District 7.
After researching for myself each of the candidates online and seeing the way they interacted at the debate I have come to an obvious conclusion, along with many of my classmates (who are old enough to vote).
Phil Smartt is the candidate for the job; he is by far the most qualified candidate running for county commissioner and it showed. Throughout Mr. Smartt's presentation he stayed calm and collected, whereas his opponents, namely Sabrena Turner, seemed aggravated and flustered. When the topic of annexation came up Sabrena Turner told how she fought annexation by collecting money from residents and hired a lawyer to handle the matter in the court system. Clearly she did help in the fight against annexation, but it is also apparent that Phil Smartt put a halt on annexation for residents in Hamilton County, just in a different way. Namely by forcing the city to accept responsibility for the sewer if they annexed neighborhoods within District 7.
Sabrena, her campaign manager, and other supporters were clearly agitated by what Mr. Smartt had to say about his fight against annexation. What was most shocking to me - this being my first "town hall" style meeting that I've attended - was the disrespect and anger that Sabrena's campaign manager (Jonathan Mason) displayed towards Mr. Smartt. While Mr. Smartt was trying to tell the audience the facts behind his fight against annexation, Sabrena's supporters began to yell "liar, false, that is false, lies." Well, apparently this is what you do in a campaign when you can't win on the issues or facts.
I've now researched Mr. Smartt's claims regarding his role in stopping annexation and the facts are clear. Mike Carter, Larry Henry, Claude Ramsey, and other community leaders have stated (on the record for all to see) that Mr. Smartt did play a pivotal role in fighting annexation - contrary to Sabrena's claim that she is the "only candidate to fight annexation." What was most shocking was the fact that, when faced with publicly recorded quotes from city and county leaders on the issue, Sabrena, and her campaign manager refused to accept the blatant facts placed before them.
For a first-time voter, it's important to me that candidates tell the truth, and can represent their constituents with respect, dignity and civility. Last night the Sabrena supporters were anything but civil. Phil Smartt is the candidate for the job and he has gained the respect and votes of my peers.
Ali Fugatt
East Hamilton High School Senior
* * *
I, too, was amazed and disappointed in the actions of Sabrena Turner's campaign staff at East Hamilton's roundtable discussion.
I am a supporter of Perry Perkins, but, Ali, I do agree that their actions were uncalled for.
I had assumed that civility would not be optional considering that this particular discussion was organized by a high school senior, and was well attended by his fellow students of East Hamilton. Sadly, civility had been forgotten by Turner's campaign. I was close enough to hear the curses emitting from their lips as Turner's stance that she was "the only candidate that fought annexation" was questioned.
Even after the discussion had ended, her campaign staff continued to feel the need to disrespect others in attendance.
I watched as Turner's campaign manager, Jonathon Mason, made his rounds through the audience that was slowly thinning in East Hamilton's gymnasium. He visited Phil Smartt and Perry Perkins supporters alike raising his voice and demonstrating a threatening character, while Turner stood back and watched. Mr. Mason, the supporters of fellow Republican candidates will not be bullied into submission.
We are the company that we keep, are we not?
I would like to personally thank Turner's campaign staff for showing me which candidate to not support in the race for County Commissioner of District 7. I would like to ask them: through your actions at East Hamilton on Thursday evening, what were you hoping to teach the next generation of voters and residents of District 7?
Thank you, Ali, for bringing this to the public's attention.
Sarah Hedrick, student at the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga
It's encouraging to see young people engaged with the political process in our community. Ali Fugatt sharing his opinion and a classmate hosting a debate sends a meaningful signal. A signal of understanding the duty of following what's going on politically, having an informed, logical position about the political ideas they support, and voting their voice on Election Day.
Americas are blessed with the right to applaud, complain, protest or petition; but, without our vote, these rights are meaningless actions, backed up by nothing. Thanks to the students and staff of East Hamilton for facilitating the debate and your leadership.
Alan Knowles
I will first state that I am a staunch supporter of Sabrena Turner in the Hamilton County District Seven Commission primary race.
That being said, I was greatly impressed by the excellent essay submitted by Ali Fugatt which related certain events which transpired during the District 7 forum at East Hamilton High School this past Thursday night. The quality of the essay instills a renewed confidence in the education being provided by the HCDE, at least at East Hamilton High School.
Unfortunately, the veracity of some of Ali's statement will be the focus of my submission. As Paul Harvey used to say, "and now for the rest of the story." In order for a report to be considered accurate and, above all honest, all sides of the story must be told. My submission will focus on the actions of the four candidates Thursday night, which in my opinion caused the controversy. First, I must set the stage.
The forum candidates were seated on the stage platform next to each other. Starting from the left were Turner, Smartt, Perkins and Maize. Throughout the question phase Mr. Maize was the only one of the four who stood to answer most questions while the others usually remained seated.
As the forum came to its conclusion each candidate was allowed to make a closing statement. The forum had been very civil up until Mr. Smartt rose to speak. During the course of the evening it was Mr. Smartt's contention that the fight against annexation failed due to factors other than the involvement of the Hamilton County Residents Against Annexation (HCRAA), the group in which Ms. Turner played a leadership role for the Hurricane Creek community. During his closing comments Mr. Smartt decided to stand. As he concluded, he decided to demonstratively drive home his point concerning the annexation issue and Ms.Turner's role in it. He turned to face Ms. Turner, who was seated, stood over her and loudly proclaimed "You Lost, You Lost" while jabbing the pointing index finger of his right hand down at her. It was at this moment in time Ms. Turner's supporters voiced their displeasure. In my opinion, their outburst was based more on the physical intimidation by Mr. Smartt, and his raised voice, than by what was said. Of course, the only way to verify my statement is to obtain a copy of the video made by the student who organized the event.
In conclusion, I believe it is best for all the candidates and supporters to remain civil and controlled in the future. District 7 should feel blessed to have so many good candidates vying for the commissioner position.
Ah, politics, don't you just love it? Hm, maybe not.
