Obama, House GOP Gear Up for Fall Budget Battle
One of the few facts in the budget wars in Washington to which both sides generally subscribe is that future deficits are being driven by spending on federal benefits, particularly health, not on the roughly one-third of domestic and defense spending that's subject to annual appropriation by Congress.
Now Congress and the president are heading to a showdown over spending — over that already-shrinking third, which covers everything from bullets for the Army to bureaucrats in the Agriculture Department.
Across-the-board spending cuts, the "sequester," were designed to force Congress and the president to find some better way to reduce the deficit, but they haven't. Federal employees are taking mandatory furloughs, programs for the poor are being squeezed and the Pentagon is cutting flying hours for military planes. But much of the public hasn't felt much pain – yet. A new Wall Street Journal/NBC News poll found 58% said the sequester hadn't touched them much, if at all; 22% said it had affected them "a great deal" or "quite a bit."
But the sequester bites again in the fiscal year that begins Oct. 1 – unless it's repealed. The House assumes it will stick. The Senate assumes it won't. And there's no movement towards a conference committee to split the difference. So the House appropriation subcommittee is dividing up a $967 billion pot; the Senate, a $1.058 trillion pot. Democrats who want to repeal the sequester have a new talking point: The Congressional Budget Office said Thursday that waiving the cuts would mean 900,000 more jobs by September 2014.
But the gap between President Barack Obama and Republicans, particularly in the House, is very wide. The president is going around the country making the case for more spending: "At a time when we need to make investments to create jobs, and strengthen the middle class, and grow our economy…I've got some of the House Republicans who put forward a budget that does just the opposite. They're pushing bills that would cut education, cut science, cut research, prevent us from meeting these priorities," he said Thursday in Jacksonville, Fla.
To which House Speaker John Boehner (R., Ohio) replied: "It should be clear that government borrowing and spending isn't how you build a durable economic recovery."
Some Republican rank-and-file are itching for a confrontation over spending even if that means a government shutdown. Others fear a shutdown would hurt Republicans in the 2014 elections. Lately, there has been talk in the House of avoiding an Oct. 1 government shutdown with a stop-gap bill, a "continuing resolution" to fund the government at a $988 billion level, but dividing that sum among defense and various domestic programs will be contentious.
And even if Congress manages to avoid a shutdown on Oct. 1, it'll soon be confronted – again – with the need to raise the federal debt ceiling. The latest estimate by the Bipartisan Policy Center says the Treasury will run out of cash sometime between mid-October and mid-November.

The CAA issues secondary legislation in support of the provisions of the Law on Civil Aviation. While drafting the regulations, the CAA applies a transparent process of public consultation, offering an opportunity to all interested parties to provide their remarks, comments and suggestions. This information is then analyzed by the CAA structures within a predetermined time and is appropriately addressed. It is the obligation of all CAA structures proposing secondary legislation to take into consideration observations of the stakeholders.
We do so because we believe that certain field can be regulated only by recognizing the real needs of interested parties, stakeholders and the general public. Through this process the CAA gains solid knowledge about the situation of stakeholders, the need for action and the appropriateness of the measures planned to be undertaken.
After completing the public consultation process, secondary legislative acts are endorsed by the Director General and entered into force.
Current documents in the process of public consultation
Consultation open until 02/06/2016.

Success Quote: A Hybrid Approach for Success
By Lauren Clark-Oracle on May 29, 2014
We recently received this quote from a project that successfully used OUM: "On our project, we applied a combination of the Oracle Unified Method (OUM) and the client's methodology. The project was organized by OUM's phases and a subset of OUM's processes, tasks, and templates. Using a hybrid of the two methods resulted in an implementation approach that was optimized for the client-specific requirements for this project."
This hybrid approach is an excellent example of using OUM in the flexible and scalable manner in which it was intended. The project team was able to scale OUM to be fit-for-purpose for their given situation. It's great to see how merging what was needed out of OUM with the client's methodology resulted in an implementation approach that more closely aligned to the business needs.
Successfully scaling OUM is dependent on the needs of the particular project and/or engagement. The key is to use no more than is necessary to satisfy the requirements of the implementation and appropriately address risks. For more information, check out the "Tailoring OUM for Your Project" page, which can be accessed by first clicking on the "OUM should be scaled to fit your implementation" link on the OUM homepage and then drilling into the link on the subsequent page.
Have you used OUM in conjunction with a partner or customer methodology? Please share your experiences with us.

The "Reel Blondes" franchise created by Vicki Brooks has always been the go-to place for big laughs, silly sketches, hilarious costumes and an insanely talented cast that seems to live by the old musical comedy adage, "bigger, faster, funnier."
This year's show, "Back to the Roots," is all that, along with being considerably more adventurous by traveling some new roads of comedy and, overall, exhibiting a musical craziness that goes well beyond the zaniness audiences have come to expect.
And, this time, it has a time machine -- the device that will save Blondie's (Peggy Stratton) salon from being left in the dust by the mega-rich Dante (Min Kahng), who has opened his salon just across the street. Essentially, it's High Noon on Hartz Avenue as Blondie and Dante enter a pitched battle for hair-care supremacy in Danville.
Almost immediately, Dante goes nuclear, turning his salon into something that more resembles a theme park, stealing Blondie's regulars and giving her a lot of free time to plot revenge with her handyman (director Jeff Seaberg in a role he makes hilarious) and Fabio (a very funny Daniel Santero), a flamboyant hair stylist who goes to spy on Dante's and returns in full roller-disco drag for the big disco number. Like most of the production numbers (including many with the cast dressed like consumer products) it seems to be a non sequitur, but somehow makes sense in the crazy world of Blondie.
An example is the time machine, which the Handyman assembles, despite the fact it came from IKEA and the directions are in Swedish. It prompts visits from Lisbeth Salander (heroin of the "The Girl With the Dragon Tatoo") , and later, the members of ABBA.
The gags spin out at an increasingly speedy pace, with spoofs on Depends disposable underwear and Ambien (featuring Snow White singing "Waking up Is Hard to do") topping the crowded list
One of the funniest and most complex bits is a video/live action vignette featuring Paul Wujek detailing the relationship between a woman and an avocado. Titled, "Avocado," the piece parodies the tune "Desperado" to tell the story of the fatal attraction between the woman and her sombrero-wearing 'cado.It doesn't end well.
"Reel Blondes" works because of the sharp writing and a tremendous cast of triple-threat (singing, dancing, acting) performers, who completely buy in to the zany material and make it hilarious. That includes those mentioned above, as well as Nick Quintell, Donna Turner, Morgan Breedveld, Rebecca LaFleur, Savannah Stratton and Mike Doyle, who has served as Danville's mayor and member of the town council, and makes an extremely brief appearance in the show.

OAKLAND -- The A's season starts Friday.
The first 126 games were a mere prelude, winding up with a less-than-inspiring 8-5 loss to the New York Mets on Wednesday.
The A's have 36 games left, 10 of them against Friday's opponent, the Los Angeles Angels. Since the Angels and A's have the two best records in baseball, it's no great stretch to see that what is to come is of much more import that what has transpired.
"Games like this are an opportunity where you can impact where you stand and your position,'' outfielder Brandon Moss said, looking at the weekend. "You can't depend on other teams to take care of things for you. You have to take care of your own things. Hopefully we come out here and do that.''
The thing is, the A's have not been very good taking care of things themselves lately. They started the season 57-33, including going 6-3 against the Angels. Oakland is 17-19 since then.
Wednesday saw starter Jeff Samardzija give up seven two-out hits. They accounted for all but one of the seven runs he allowed.
"I think in this slump we haven't been hitting on all cylinders,'' Samardzija said. "We've had good pitching, good hitting and good defense. We just haven't had all three facets clicking at the same time.
"I've got to bear down and get an out there. I gave up a couple of hits (in the third inning), and then the home run (to Lucas Duda), which was the dagger.''
There have been entirely too many daggers of late for the A's, particularly in August, where they are 8-11. In the last 10 days alone, they have gone from having a four-game lead in the American League West to being 11/2 games behind the Angels.
That makes this weekend huge in a way that none of the previous 126 games was.
"It'll always be different when you are playing in your division against teams that are close to you in the standings,'' Moss said. "Just like with the Rangers two years ago. Just like with the Rangers last year."
As for the big picture, the A's skid started about a week after Samardzija and Jason Hammel came to the A's in a trade July 4 that sent promising minor league shortstop Addison Russell to the Chicago Cubs.
"There's been a big change in this team, obviously,'' Samardzija said. "We're kind of getting used to that. But I love the way these guys fight every day. So I'm not expecting anything but success from this team.
"It's pretty obvious the situation the two teams are in. We have a handful of games with them in the future. It's safe to say the division will be determined by those 10 games. We've got an off-day to take advantage of that, then will come back and get ready.''
It's easy to focus on the seven runs that Samardzija gave up in 32/3 innings and the 5.54 ERA the starters have in the last nine games (2-7), but it's the Oakland offense that should be the prime concern heading into the weekend. Oakland is the only team in baseball to have scored 600-plus runs so far this season, but the A's are in a prolonged drought. While they're averaging 4.84 runs per game for the season, in August the average is down a full run per game to 3.84.
"Clubhouse morale has not been affected,'' catcher John Jaso, who had one of the A's three RBIs on Wednesday, said. "So everything's good there.''
L.A. Angels (Hector Santiago 3-7) at A's (Sonny Gray 12-7),
7:05 p.m. CSNCA
a's vs. L.A. angels
Friday: A's Sonny Gray (12-7, 2.99) vs. Angels' Hector Santiago (3-7, 3.46), 7:05 p.m. CSNCA
Saturday: Jon Lester (13-8, 2.58) vs. C.J. Wilson (10-8, 4.59), 6:05 p.m. CSNCA
Sunday: Scott Kazmir (14-5, 2.73) vs. Jeff Weaver (13-7, 3.70), 5:05 p.m. ESPN
Here's how the A's current 2-8 stretch, coupled with hot play by the Angels, has altered the A.L. West standings.
THROUGH Aug. 9
Team W L GB
A's 72 44 --
Angels 68 48 4.0
THROUGH Aug. 20

Angels 75 50 --

Kicking off the National Coffee Day festivities, Dunkin' Donuts unveiled Pumpkin Mocha and Pumpkin White Chocolate coffee and lattes.
Available hot or iced, the two flavors join Dunkin' Donuts' Pumpkin Coffee as the perfect way to enjoy a taste of fall any time of day. Pumpkin Mocha and Pumpkin White Chocolate coffee and lattes are available for a limited time at participating Dunkin' Donuts restaurants nationwide.

Available in flavors like Original Blend, Dunkin' Decaf, and French Vanilla, Dunkin' Donuts' packaged coffee is a great way to enjoy the taste of fresh Dunkin' Donuts coffee at home.
Finally, Dunkin' Donuts is marking National Coffee Day with the brand's biggest Twitter sweeps ever. Beginning September 28 and continuing through September 30, Dunkin' Donuts' National Coffee Day Twitter Sweepstakes invites fans to share with @DunkinDonuts on Twitter how they take their Dunkin' coffee using the special hashtage #DunkinNCD.

Combating hunger has been a top priority for Harris Teeter since it opened its doors. On April 30 friends and colleagues united to help Harris Teeter make a difference in the communities it serves. The tournament took place at Carmel Country Club in Charlotte, NC but the money raised will span across six states.
As golfers poured in Monday morning they were excited to hear that their participation had helped raise $200,000 for area food banks. At the conclusion of the event they received a visit from a special, Peter Jacobsen. Peter is a 30-year veteran of the PGA Tour. He spoke to the guests about his passion for golf and giving back!
"Harris Teeter knows that a grocery store nourishes a community in many ways," said Fred Morganthall, President of Harris Teeter. "Food banks work everyday to make a difference in the lives of those struggling to make ends meet and we are proud to be able to lend support to these organizations," added Morganthall.
Harris Teeter would like to thank all involved in our annual golf tournament. It is important to remember that people are in need all year long. Many food banks receive the majority of their donations during the winter months. Harris Teeter understands that it is difficult for food banks to stretch those donations an entire year. We are committed to being part of the solution when it comes to ending hunger.
Food Banks receiving donations will include Lowcountry Food Bank, Capital Area Food Bank, Interfaith Relief, Second Harvest of Northwest NC, Second Harvest of Middle TN, Good Shepherd Ministries, Food Bank of Central & Eastern NC, Second Harvest Food Bank of Metrolina, Second Harvest of Southeast VA, Inter-Faith Food Shuttle, Loaves & Fishes, and MANNA Food Bank.

Sandwiches aren't just for lunch. These hot chicken sandwiches take center stage as the main dish for quick and easy weeknight meals.
Spicy Chicken SandwichesThese reduced-fat chicken sandwiches feature chicken cutlets encrusted with tortilla chip crumbs, which yield a satisfying crunch. You can also use spicy chips for more heat.
Grilled Chicken and Tomato Pesto BaguettesAdd savory flavor to a grilled chicken sandwich with grilled red bell peppers and sun-dried tomato pesto. Top with Swiss cheese and serve on a whole wheat baguette for an easy weeknight meal.
California Chicken SandwichThis healthy chicken sandwich on toasted sourdough bread is a great choice for lunch or a light dinner. Serve with fresh fruit to round out the meal.
Grilled Chicken 'N' Cheese SandwichesTake a normal grilled cheese from everyday to extraordinary by adding delicious chicken salad to the mix.
Chicken Parmesan SandwichesThese chicken parmesan sandwiches are inspired by the classic Italian dish of the same name and make a hearty lunch or dinner.
Grilled Basil Chicken SandwichesUse garden-fresh basil and heirloom tomatoes to top grilled chicken in this perfect summertime sandwich.
Grilled Chicken and Tapenade SandwichesLayer grilled chicken, feta cheese, and an olive- and tomato-topping for these fantastic dinner sandwiches. The tomato mixture also tastes wonderful when served on slices of toasted baguette as an appetizer.
Grilled Chicken and Pea Shoot Charmoula SandwichesBefore grilling, marinate chicken tenders in a paste made with cilantro, garlic, olive oil and lemon juice then serve on ciabatta bread topped with garden fresh carrot and tender pea shoots.
Grilled Chicken WrapsMake dinner tonight a wrap. Toss grilled, shredded chicken in a tangy mayonnaise mixture and wrap it up in flatbread along with a shredded cabbage and pickles.
Grilled Chicken Mojito SandwichesThese Cuban inspired sandwiches use the ingredients in a Mojito cocktail—rum, lime juice and sugar—as a marinade as well as in the mayonnaise-based dressing.
Mozzarella Chicken SandwichOur online reviewers rave about this recipe, claiming it "tastes like something you would order at a restaurant, but only takes a few minutes to make". After you brown the chicken in a skillet, place it on ciabatta bread coated with a pesto mayonnaise. Top with basil and mozzarella and run it under the broiler to melt the cheese and get the bread crispy. Roasted red pepper and tomato are the finishing touches.
Barbecue Chicken SandwichesWhen there's no time for barbecuing and basting chicken on the grill, enjoy this quick barbecue sandwich starring rotisserie chicken and your favorite bottled sauce. Pickled jalapeños are optional, but do add an extra hit of heat. Serve with potato chips and coleslaw, and you've got a meal in about 10 minutes.
Open-Faced Chicken and Muenster SandwichesA hot open-faced sandwich is often called a "knife-and-fork sandwich." We call it dinner. This bistro-style recipe features on-hand ingredients such as jarred preserves, prechopped onion, bagged spinach, and rotisserie chicken. All you have to do is pile the ingredients on the bread, stick the sandwiches under the broiler, and dinner is served.

Buffalo Chicken PaniniThat iconic buffalo flavor straight from the panini press. Customize the hot sauce to your favorite spiciness level and add blue cheese crumbles and sour cream to create a creamy blue cheese dressing.
Chicken Panini with Fig JamPanini sandwiches are all the rage, but if you don't have a Panini maker, you can press the sandwich with the bottom of a cast-iron skillet. The sweet and savory blend of fig preserves and blue cheese that top the sliced chicken has online reviewers cheering. If you don't care for arugula, you can substitute baby spinach.
Indian-Spiced Chicken BurgersTake a break from beef and use ground chicken for your burgers. Because the chicken is mild-flavored, it can handle the Indian spice blend garam masala. Carry out the theme and top the patties with yogurt, mango chutney and chopped fresh mint instead of the usual condiments.
Chicken Sandwiches with Melted CheeseThese one-dish-meal grilled cheese sandwiches feature slices of tart Granny Smith apple, sharp blue cheese, and super-quick rotisserie chicken. If you're not a blue cheese fan, cheddar is a tasty option.
Spicy Grilled Chicken SandwichesTry this lighter version of Buffalo chicken sandwiches. We coated the meat in a mix of spices to give it the same kick as the original, then grilled instead of fried it.
BLT Chicken BurgersPoultry burgers have a reputation for being dry and bland, but jazzed up with sharp cheddar, parmesan, and garlic—and then topped with crisp bacon, juicy tomatoes, and lettuce—they're boldness in a bun.

CXCR2 blockers stop cancer
30.08.2012 - Formation of tumours can be significantly reduced by inhibition of a receptor that drives inflammation, according to a British-German research team.
According to the scientists headed by Robert Nibbs from Biomedical Research Centre Glasgow, inhibition of the chemokine receptor CXCR2 "profoundly suppressed inflammation-driven tumourigenesis in models for skin and intestinal cancers as well as in adenomas" (JCI, doi: 1172/JCI61067). Either chemical blocking of CXCR2 or knock-out of the receptor gene prevented proinflammatory chemokines, which were selectively expressed in adenomas, skin and intestinal tumours, to bind to the receptor. CXCR2 deficiency inhibited recruitment of neutrophils and tumour-associated leukocytes, according to the authors from Glasgow and their partners from Ludwig-Maximilians University Munich.
Chronic inflammation is found frequently in the development of a number of benign and malignant cancers, particularly in colorectal cancers where ulcerative colitis increases the risk of developing colon cancer 20-fold. Treatment of patients with ulcerative colitis with anti-inflammatory compounds can reduce their cancer risk by 50%. Thus, the researchers believe that CRCX2 blockers may be attractive therapeutic targets to prevent and treat inflammation-driven cancers.http://www.european-biotechnology-news.com/news/news/2012-03/inflammation-blockers-stop-cancer.html

WILLIAMSBURG Ky. - The University of the Cumberlands (UC) Men's Basketball team has perfected the term "winning" this season as they continue to roll through opponents with style and ease, defeating Cumberland University on Tuesday 69-62 and Union College on Saturday 102-72. With both wins coming in front of a home crowd, the Patriots now move to 9-0 on the season and 3-0 in conference play.
On Tuesday evening, the Patriots kicked off their Thanksgiving break on the right foot with a strong win against the Bulldogs of Cumberland University 69-62. While the Bulldogs led at halftime 37-36, the Patriots refused to give up their perfect season coming back in the second half on fire. With aggressive team defense and hard-nose rebounding, the Patriots proved to be too much for the Bulldogs to handle down the stretch, falling apart in the final minutes. Senior forward Benito Santiago Jr. (Coamo, Puerto Rico) was an intense spark for the Patriots in the second half, earning another double-double with 22 points and 12 rebounds. Fellow senior Antonio Bumpus (Columbus, OH) followed closely scoring 21 points of his own along with 5 rebounds.
The Patriots returned to the O. Wayne Rollins Center on Saturday afternoon to battle the Bulldogs of Union College, dominating play in every aspect with a final score of 102-72. On the offensive side of things, the Patriots shot a steady 52% from the field as well as from the three-point line. They out-rebounded the Bulldogs effortlessly 43-20 while grabbing 7 steals as a team from their opponent. While defensively the stats were solid, it was the offensive side of the ball that impressed spectators. Six players for the Patriots reached double digit figures in the scoring column, with one posting a double-double as well. Ernie McCoy (Columbus, OH) led all scorers with 21 points, followed by Steve Goins (Chicago, IL) who scored 17 of his own. Santiago Jr. chipped in another strong performance with 16 points, while Bumpus posted yet another double-double with 14 points and 10 rebounds. James Archie (Jackson, MS) contributed 14 points as well, while Kenny Cowser (Snellsville, GA) put up 10 of his own.
With both wins, the now 9-0 Patriots look to continue Mid-South Conference play with a home-court match-up against Bluefield College on Dec 1. The game is set to tip-off at 4 pm.

Quote: In recent weeks, amid the health care debate, there's been a lot of misinformation regarding the wealth of the United States. So let's set the record straight: the United States has today roughly $50-60 trillion in wealth and investment capital, depending on how one measures each.
I'll repeat the low-end estimate for everyone: fifty trillion dollars. That's $50,000,000,000,000.
The United States: the golden door
In other words, despite the nation's most pronounced recession in more than a generation, despite the horrible housing slump, and despite the 2008 stock market plunge, the United States remains not only the richest nation in the world, but the richest nation and civilization the world has ever known.
No nation has ever created and amassed more wealth in absolute terms than the United States.
In other words, even with the numerous problems the nation faces - 47 million Americans (and climbing) without health insurance, the need for entitlement reform (including Medicare and Medicaid), the banking crisis/bailout, climate change, and the budget deficit - the issue is not whether the money exists to solve the problems, but who pays.
Here's another stat: wealth in the United States has roughly quadrupled in the past 30 years, but the median income of working-class Americans has declined, in real terms. And poverty rates, which had fallen throughout the 1990s, reversed this decade. If each problem -- stagnant wages in many job segments, and poverty -- is not addressed, it's my argument that the two will pose serious threats to both U.S. GDP growth and the nation's economic model, which would obviously be bad news for U.S. stock markets and investors.
Further, don't let anyone ever tell you 'the nation is bankrupt' or 'we have an unserviceable budget deficit and national debt.' If an emergency occurred and the nation was forced to do so, it could eliminate the budget deficit and national debt very quickly. If you doubt this, see paragraph two above.

They are just two small boxes mounted on a handful of local police vehicles, but they have the capability to scan and store the license plate number and location of hundreds of vehicles per minute.
These automatic license plate readers (ALPRs) can help identify stolen vehicles or vehicles connected to a wanted criminal. However, a lack of laws governing record retention also creates the potential for the license plate data to balloon into a giant searchable travel log of law abiding citizens, warns the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) in a newly published report.
"Databases of license plate reader information create opportunities for institutional abuse, such as using them to identify protest attendees merely because these individuals have exercised their First Amendment-protected right to free speech," the ACLU wrote in its report, titled "You Are Being Tracked: How License Plate Readers Are Being Used To Record Americans' Movements."
Article Photos
JASMINE ROGERS The Marietta Times
Marietta Police Capt. Jeff Waite is flanked by two automatic license plate readers mounted on the back of a police cruiser Tuesday. The readers can scan and store the plates of hundreds of cars per minute.
Locally, both the Marietta Police Department and Beverly Police Department use the ALPRs.
The ALPRs are intended to be used to find vehicles associated with crimes or criminals, said Marietta Police patrolman Rhett Walters. The ALPRs pull from a "hot list" of suspected license plates.
"Once it hits a plate and verifies it, there's an audible warning," he said.
Fact Box
What the American Civil
Liberties Union has to say
Automatic license plate readers used by many law enforcement agencies can snap and store the plate number, location, date, and time, of hundreds of licenses plates per minute.
A lack of guidelines means agencies can keep whatever license plate records they want for as long as they want, creating the potential for agencies to track the movements of innocent motorists.
The ACLU says this could lead to a violation of rights.
It is a technology that Marietta resident Barbara Garverick, 61, said she is glad police have at their disposal.
"I think it's a good thing because we have so many drug problems that they need some tool beyond just the public information," she said.
Newport resident Sophia Moretto, 18, agreed.
"I feel it's better to have the system and be safe rather than sorry. I think they should keep the program in place in case something (like a kidnapping) pops up," she said.
Much of the ACLU's denouncement targets not the technology snapping the license plates, but the rules regarding what happens to the license plate information once snapped.
Locally, those snaps are immediately uploaded to a system maintained by the Franklin County Sheriff's Office, which retains records for numerous police organizations using ALPRs throughout the state.
The Franklin County Sheriff's Office, unlike many targeted by the ACLU, has a retention policy in place. The agency retains records for 90 days and only shares records with law enforcement agencies, said their Investigations Chief Marty Buechner.
The Ohio State Highway Patrol has an even stricter retention policy, said Patrol public affairs commander Lt. Anne Ralston.
"We only keep it for a very short period of time. Generally all the non-hit captures will be deleted within a 24-hour period," she said.
Positive hits are digitally stored for 31 days, but are retained longer in hard copy format, she said.
The state patrol has had more success with the readers than local agencies. Marietta Police Capt. Jeff Waite was not certain the last time a reader hit a wanted vehicle, but noted that it happens rarely and usually for less serious crimes such as shoplifting.
Both the Washington County Sheriff's Office and the Belpre Police Department used the readers at one point, but discontinued use because they required technological updates.
The state patrol has 20 ALPRs statewide and none are used locally, said Ralston. Of the 20, 11 are fixed units-usually mounted on stationary structures near the Ohio Turnpike-and the remaining nine are affixed to vehicles.
The ALPRs "have been very successful," said Ralston.
The state patrol's "hot list" is nationwide, while local law enforcement agencies pull from a statewide system. Franklin County receives roughly 30,000 scans per day, resulting in approximately 200 hits per day, said Buechner.
Any new technology should be given due concern, said Marietta resident Douglas Haga, 61.
"Anytime you have electronics involved and there's no regulation, there's a very real possibility for abuse," said Haga.
He agreed with the ACLU.
"It's not the technology that's evil," he said. "It's how you use it."
Because an outside agency retains records for Marietta and Beverly, there is little potential for abuse, said Walters.
Data is purged from individual ALPRs within two weeks and local officials would need to go through the FCSO to request location records more than two weeks old, he said.
Furthermore, there is no expectation of privacy concerning license plates in the first place.
"You could have a neighbor who takes a picture of your license plate every day and stores it in a closet," said Walters, adding that it would be perfectly legal behavior.
Marietta resident Sara Barker, 25, saids he thinks the readers have little effect on law abiding citizens.
"I think if you're not doing anything wrong, there's nothing to worry about," she said.
While both the Highway Patrol and Franklin County Sheriff's Office have well-defined retention policies, neither organization is required by law to do so, pointed out ACLU of Ohio Policy Coordinator Melissa Bilancini in a press release.
"Ultimately we support state legislation that would create standards for all law enforcement agencies that ensure transparency and protect privacy," she said.

Hey I know there are forums for Windows Home Server and there are actually PMS threads on one or two of those forums.
But Im wondering if anyone here has PMS running to their satisfaction on WHS.
Currently I actually have the PMS software running on my personal XP machine... but all of my media is on the WHS box. I just pointed the media library to share folders on the WHS box.
I couldnt get PMS to work well at all on my WHS box (p4 3.2 northwood/ 2gb) with regards to playing anything other than AVIs. If I played video (mkv for example) directly off the box it would play without stuttering but with no sound. If i navigated into the transcode folder and played one of the options there then it would play the video with the sound but it would stutter. This is with near 720 resolution video.
Im not entirely sure what any of this means.
With PMS on my XP machine (quad core/4gb) it seems to transcode fine with sound. Like others have stated it will not ff/rr at anything greater than 1.5X.
Bandwidth is not an issue with me (im guessing) as im all wired in gigabit.
There seems to be some problems with installing some of the components (avisynth?) on the WHS box.
Does anyone has any comment with regards to a P4 3.2 northwood with 2gig ram and transcoding 720p x264? Would it be expected to struggle? Would the periodic WHS storage balancing impact performance?
Any comment at all is welcome. (Even flames =] )

Jackson, Miss.
Mississippi's new voter ID law appeared to encounter few problems in its first test in Tuesday's primaries.
After polls had been open for several hours, Secretary of State Delbert Hosemann said fears of problems arising from voters being asked for identification did not materialize.
Voters could present a driver's license or one of numerous other photo identification cards are acceptable, including:
* A photo ID issued by a branch, department or entity of
the State of Mississippi
* A United States passport
* A government employee ID card
* A firearms license
* A student photo ID issued by an accredited Mississippi
university, college or community/junior college
* A United States military ID
* A tribal photo ID
* Any other photo ID issued by any branch, department,
agency or entity of the United States government or any
State government
* A Mississippi Voter Identification card
A voter may use an expired photo ID as long as it is an acceptable form of photo ID (see list above) and is not more than 10 years old. The expired ID must contain the name and photograph of the voter, and have been validly issued by the federal or a state government.
State law says a person without ID may vote by affidavit ballot, which would be counted if the person goes to an election clerk's office within five days to show identification.
Hosemann says his office took limited phone calls regarding voter ID.
Voter turnout appeared light early Tuesday but picked up later in some areas.
There were few local issues on Mississippi ballots Tuesday as federal party primaries dominated.

When the pope dies, the cardinals are summoned to Rome by the dean of the college of cardinals for the conclave that will elect the new pope.
The word conclave (Latin, cum + clavis, literally, "locked with the key") designates the place in a locked section of the Vatican where the cardinals remain until a new pope is elected. It is also used to designate the actual gathering of the cardinals.
Before the conclave: The cardinals may discuss the upcoming election with one another. The conclave begins 15 to 20 days after the pope's death.
The actual conclave: After the celebration of Mass, the cardinal dean presides over the preliminary sessions, where procedures regulated by canon law are clarified. Then all others are dismissed and the cardinals are sealed in the Sistine Chapel where the voting takes place, every morning and afternoon.
Until recently a two-thirds majority plus one was required for election. After his election Pope John Paul II changed this. Now if there is no conclusive vote after 30 ballots, an absolute majority suffices. [This means that if a candidate gets a majority on the first or second ballot, his supporters need only wait till 30 ballots have been cast. He will then be elected on the 31st ballot.]
For each ballot, the cardinals are given rectangular cards with Eligo in summum pontificem ("I elect as supreme pontiff") printed at the top. Each cardinal prints the name of his choice. One by one in order of seniority they approach the altar where there is a chalice with a paten on top. They place the ballot (folded down the middle) on the paten, then drop it into the cup.
After each voting the ballots are burned. Special chemicals are added to make the smoke white or black. To people eagerly waiting outside, black smoke signifies an inconclusive vote. White smoke announces that a pope has been elected.
The cardinals may elect whomever they wish, as long as the person is a baptized male. There have been occasions in the past when laymen were elected. After their election they had to be ordained priest and bishop. The one elected is asked if he accepts. The moment he accepts he is pope and, if he is a bishop, he is Bishop of Rome. If he is not a bishop he is immediately ordained by the dean of the college. The cardinals individually pledge their support to the new pope. The cardinal dean asks the pope what name he chooses. Then the oldest member of the college announces the choice to the city of Rome and to the world.

BARLOW - Residents who frequent the Barlow Fairgrounds will soon have the opportunity to enjoy an archway built in memory of their loved ones.
A wrought iron memorial arch spanning 15 feet with eight foot tall columns is being erected at the walking track at the fairgrounds. The arch will be engraved with the phrase "Honoring our loved ones past and present."
The project was created and organized by Susie Ashley, who is also the founder of the Barlow Area Christmas in the Village and the annual Christmas parade.
"The initial funding for the base of the arch was provided by a generous entrepreneur in the community," Ashley said. "Now we are working with the Belpre Area Community Development Foundation to finish the project."
The entrepreneur asked to remain anonymous and for the amount of money donated to remain undisclosed.
James McCauley has been on the board of governors of the Belpre Area Community Development Foundation since it was founded in 1990.
When he was contacted about helping construct the memorial arch he said he knew it was something the fund should support.
"We generally don't receive a great deal of requests for projects and the purpose of this foundation is to serve the area, not just the city of Belpre," McCauley said. "Our organization is providing a vehicle so that donations and funds are available for this project in a tax deductible manner."
To enhance the memorial arch, the public is able to purchase engraved bricks to be placed around the columns. Each brick will sell for $50 and can hold up to three lines of 14 characters.
The money from the brick purchases will be go directly into the construction costs of the memorial arch.
"We still need to raise about $10,000 for the project so our goal is to sell around 200 bricks," Ashley said. "This is a chance to honor our veterans as well as loved ones from both the past and present."
The bricks are being made by Firefly Hollow, based in Little Hocking.
"They are a local business and I've had nothing but positive experiences with them in past projects," Ashley said.
While funds for the project will be generated mostly by brick sales, those interested in donating can do so through the Belpre Area Community Development Foundation.
"Our goal is to have this completed by Sept. 5 so if you do donate, just make sure that you designate that the money is for the "A Walk To Remember" project," Ashley said.
Ashley and her husband Roger have lived in the area for 35 years and plan to continue to be active in enriching Barlow.
"This is an area we deeply care about and this memorial arch is an opportunity to give back to it," she said.
For more information regarding the project or to place a brick order, call (740) 678-8278.

One of France's most exciting red wine appellations, lies in the far north of the northern Rhone, well beyond the town of Tain where the major negociants and Hermitage is located. Some believe it is the site of the first vineyard cultivation in ancient Gaul. Vineyards have been carved into the steep hillsides here since the time the Romans settled the nearby town of Vienne. Viticulture is difficult here, with vines planted in schist banked high above the Rhone River to maximize sun exposure.
