Not to start on a down note, but it is hard not to write an obituary. For many of us fans, U2's 360 Tour stage, "The Claw," has become an entity of its own. With the tour ending in Moncton, and the eventual fate of the Claws currently unknown, it is a little sad to think of the giant steel structure being disassembled for the last time. For more than two years, this engineering marvel has thrilled audiences around the world. Its arrival and assembly in town meant something cool and different was about to happen. It enhanced U2's show without overshadowing them. It had a personality (if possibly only a projection of U2's Willie Williams' own personality) and some faults (legs that blocked some people's views and a screen that increasingly lost some pixels). Such a presence will be missed, even if we know as fans that the band will return someday.
The end of a tour is both exciting and melancholy. U2 is able to relax and be a little more playful knowing that the demands of the tour will be over soon, but there also is an air of sadness with the eventuality of this production's magic coming to an end.
Moncton, New Brunswick, Canada hosted this ending, and it did so well. With nearly 100,000 people in attendance, concerns about logistics in this smaller town were valid, and there were some glitches. Yes, traffic was somewhat difficult, but only those with unrealistic expectations could have been disappointed or annoyed. Moncton and its people embraced this event and should be proud of their efforts.
Carney kicked off the night with an ambitious performance. For me, too many cover songs marred what seems to be a relatively talented band.
The Arcade Fire took the stage for a performance that I had been anticipating for months. They played a fairly standard set, which is great for their long-time fans, but not immediately engaging for such a large crowd. The band has plenty of loud, catchy tunes to draw-in the audience, however it took almost 10 songs into their 12-song set for fans to be interested outside of the immediate Claw stage area. I had hoped that they might join U2 on stage at some point later that night like they had in Montreal on the Vertigo Tour. Unfortunately, as an Arcade Fire fan, they did not. Fortunately, as a U2 fan, it did not matter because Bono, Edge, Adam and Larry gave such a great performance without any special guests.
Many "ending" songs played over the stage's speaker system before the band came out: The Rolling Stones The Last Time, REM's It's The End of The World As We Know It, etc. Also, two F-18 fighter jets made a few flyovers of the concert grounds before the show started. This may have thrilled the crowd more than either warm-up band.
Finally, U2 took the stage to the repeating opening riff of Even Better Than The Real Thing. As had been the case with previous shows, several Achtung Baby songs opened, then I Will Follow and Get On Your Boots. Bono continued the refrain, "Get on your boots, Moncton. Moncton… Moncton as opposed to Muck-Town. That's not good." –a reference to the incredibly muddy condition of the field. Most attendees were well-prepared for a wet evening since it had rained the entire day. Thankfully, the sky cleared up, and mud was the only annoyance to be endured. Bono referenced the rain as well saying, "Deep down, I know you like your rock stars wet." I only can imagine that he was responding to any number of the signs that the die-hard fans were holding up in the Claw's pit.
After crowd sing-along favorite I Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For, Bono performed a verse from Springhill Mining Disaster. A great cheer rose up as locals appreciated the small recognition from the band of the disaster that happened in nearby Nova Scotia.
Springhill Mining Disaster video link
Little flourishes throughout the night were reminders that this was a special show. Larry performed an extended drum solo at the end of Elevation. During the Crazy Tonight Remix, members of the 360 Tour crew replaced the usual faces of Bono, Edge, Adam and Larry on the video screen. Some of them mugged the way the guys usually do. Others smiled. Some looked embarrassed.
Much to the crowd's delight, Bono belted out a beautiful and sorrowful verse of Hallelujah before the chiming guitar opening of Where The Streets Have No Name began. Streets always is a hit, but to see a mass of people in the General Admission section that flowed seemingly endlessly uphill from the stage clapping along was amazing.
The encore brought the usual trio of songs in addition to Bono's multitude of "thank-yous" before Moment Of Surrender. As they played a particularly raucous version of Out Of Control, Bono, obviously enjoying the atmosphere, said during the middle section, "I'm not going anywhere without a bottle of champagne, so take as long as you want." When he received the bottle, he opened it and began to spray the people in the pit. After a little discussion, Adam and Edge switched sides of the stage signifying they were going to play the traditional U2 show ending song, 40. While finishing his part, Bono removed his glasses and revealed his eyes welling up with tears.
It was a beautiful and emotional night. So many people in Moncton were seeing U2 and the 360 Tour for the first time, but as for myself and many others, we were seeing it for the last time. My U2 360 Tour spanned 12 shows in 9 cities in the U.S. and Canada, including the North American opener in Chicago and now the tour closer in Moncton.
Over the course of the tour, I have gotten to experience so many great things: meeting up with old friends, meeting new friends, visiting new cities, hearing new songs, hearing old songs redone, hearing songs I never thought I would get to hear live… just so many great things. It has been a wonderful ride. I would like to say a "hello" and a "take care" to all of my U2 AOL MB friends (you know who you are), my Interference friends (those I have met in person and those I have only met online) and to some of the random people I was fortunate to run into along the way: Chris and Stephanie, Alan, JJ and Katja, Audrie, Michel, Paul and others. I hope to see you again someday. I am so glad that we all took the time to introduce ourselves to the people around us. I am so glad we all met while seeing U2.
Bono added a long extra verse to the end of Stay (Faraway, So Close) Saturday night, and I think it is appropriate to close out the reviews of the 360 Tour:
"3 o'clock in the morning,
and the trucks roll out of town.
Ray Daniels, we'll be thinking of you,
sittin' on his cloud.
110 shows,
but strangely, this feels like home.
Glad my wife is here tonight.
It's not a night to be alone.
Everbody's lover,
everbody's brother,
all came here for the show.
Some loves, some loves
are just so hard to let go.
It's quiet. There's no one around.
Just the bang and the clatter
As 360 leaves town."

Hey, lookey. Finally a case of voter fraud AND it's Republican Representative Vos's soon to be ex-wife:
TV Report: Woman Declares Idaho Residency But Votes in Wisconsin Elections
Posted by George Prentice on Fri, Aug 24, 2012 at 1:10 PM
Samantha Vos, who said that she was a resident of Canyon County in court papers filed April 19 separating from her husband, cast a vote in Wisconsin's April presidential primary election, according to a report by Madison, Wisc., television station WKOW. Vos is the wife of Wisconsin Republican Rep. Robin Voss, co-chair of his state's joint finance committee.
WKOW reports that Wisconsin law requires 28 days of continuous residency prior to voting.
Vos' Democratic opponent in the upcoming election told WKOW that Samantha Vos' vote while a resident of Idaho was "unfortuante" and said it indicated she had improperly voted.
WKOW reports that Samanta Vos also voted in a June 5 Wisconsin gubernatorial recall election and another primary election earlier this month, as her legal action in Idaho continued.

Charleston resident Adrienne Levy wanted to do something in response to the tragic bombings at the Boston Marathon.
The 27-year-old runner asked some of her friends whether they'd want to meet for a Sunday run to show their support for Boston, and she asked others via Twitter to join them.
The idea caught fire.
"The power of social media took over, and now everyone wants to come," the marketing account executive said. "This is amazing."
Local print and broadcast media have been spreading word of the run, and interest has gone beyond what Levy expected.
"So many people were touched in some way by the tragedy," said Levy, a Columbia native and avid runner. "The whole point of being together is to show Boston that the Charleston community is united (with them)."
The run will start at 8 a.m. Sunday at Colonial Lake downtown at the corner of Ashley Avenue and Broad Street. The informal 5K is free. It won't have chip timers, racing bibs or age group awards, but it will have spirit. A moment of silence will take place before the run, and participants are encouraged to wear one of their favorite racing shirts.
Levy also is applying for a city permit to secure a police escort before and behind the group.
Rick Martinez, founder of the Low Country Road Runners, has been helping Levy publicize the event and created a Facebook page for it.
"There's just this need, not just for runners, but for people to do something," he said. "It's going to help local people heal."
Runners are encouraged to join the Facebook group to give organizers a sense of how many people will be there. For more information, search for #chsrunsforboston on Twitter and Facebook.

The Keeping Up with the Kardashians star has jetted off to Paris, where she met up with the tennis pro on Wednesday at Le Meurice, a luxurious hotel overlooking the Tuileries Garden, where suites can go for up to $20,000 a night.
The two are longtime pals – Williams, 32, attended Kardashian and Kris Humphries's August 2011 wedding.
After a quick outfit change, the pair headed over to Balmain, the venerated fashion house run by designer Olivier Rousteing – a friend of Kardashian's – where they spent about an hour. (Kardashian would later grab dinner with Rousteing at chic hot spot Ferdi.)
From Balmain, it was lunch at popular bistro L'Avenue, one of the reality star's favorite spots, followed by a quick stop at Häagen-Dazs, where a chauffeur grabbed two caramel-flavored ice cream cones for the ladies to enjoy on the way to their next destination: Lanvin.
At Lanvin, Kardashian, 33, was seen autographing her Vogue issue in the waiting area – the dress she wore on the magazine's cover was designed by the celebrated house's creative director, Alber Elbaz. Her presence at Lanvin didn't go unnoticed: A crowd formed outside, and as the reality star departed, a seemingly bemused Elbaz and two assistants were seen staring down from a window at the scene.
Following their visit to Lanvin, Kardashian and Williams hit the Marais and the showrooms of Azzedine Alaïa. (Back in January, Kardashian accompanied the legendary designer on a visit to the Galliera Museum, touring an exhibition there dedicated to his fashions.)
"So many exciting things are happening in my life," the bride-to-be told PEOPLE in March about her impending nuptials. "I feel so much good energy. It's just going to be the best!"

Police are investigating a possible murder-suicide at the Red Roof Inn on Fremont Street in Stockton.
A man and a woman were found dead in a car near a commercial Dumpster by a maintenance worker, officers said.
When the worker made the discovery, he called 911. Paramedics pronounced the pair dead at the scene.
Joe Silva of the Stockton Police Department said that a gun was recovered inside the vehicle and the circumstances surrounding the incident lead investigators to believe it was a murder-suicide.
"We found a gun inside the car and we believe the two adults were in a relationship at one time," Silva said.
Police are still trying to determine the relationship between the man and woman.
This death marks the city's 63rd homicide of 2012.

This irrational behavior was brought
into sharp focus by the residents of Craigavon, South Africa.
On August 12, 2009, a new iBurst (or HC-SDMA, High Capacity Spatial
Division Multiple Access) tower in the city's Fourways Memorial
Park. IBurst is a high speed wireless broadband technology,
commonly used in the U.S., Canada, South Africa, and elsewhere to
bring fast wireless internet to USB modems.
Shortly after the
tower was turned on, residents began to complain that they were
suddenly afflicted with severe health issues according
to MyBroadband. Describes Tracey-Lee Dorny, one of
the supposed victims, "Several rash cases were presented in
person and by photos from people who could not attend [a meeting with
iBurst]. Headaches, nausea, tinnitus, dry burning itchy skins,
gastric imbalances and totally disrupted sleep patterns, especially
with some of the children, were some of the issues presented by the
Residents recruited the legal services of
legal firm Bezuidenhout, Van Zyl and Associates to sue iBurst.
They complained that their symptoms resided within a day of leaving
the town, and they demanded the tower be permanently removed.
iBurst did something clever. It secretly turned off the tower
near the end of September. The residents didn't know this,
though, when they came to a meeting with iBurst CEO Jannie van Zyl in
mid-November. They claimed that their symptoms took hours to
subside, but would return shortly after they came back to the town.
They said that certain skin conditions took a while longer -- as long
as 6 weeks -- to fully recover. They also said that their
afflictions still were ongoing.
Then Mr. Zyl revealed to them
that they had been tricked. He explains, "At the meeting
in mid-November residents claimed that full recovery of skin
conditions could take as long as 6 weeks. Yet, the tower was switched
off for more than 6 weeks by this time. At this point it became
apparent that the tower can, in no way, be the cause of the symptoms,
as it was already switched off for many weeks, yet the residents
still saw symptoms that come and go according to their proximity to
the area."
At this point it seems almost certain that the
symptoms are indicative of some other local heath risk, such as
contaminated drinking water. However, the tower is obviously
not to blame. Mr. Zyl lauds the safety of iBurst, adding, "Radiation levels
emitted by the tower were ten thousand times LESS than the
international safety standards set for mobile towers and that the
radiation at this site was in fact the same level as that already
present from cellular phone towers in the area."
being caught in a fallacy, the residents' hatred of the
broadband service burns on. Their lawyer states that the
medical complaints were "only the beginning" of a much
larger complaint against iBurst.
The truly curious part is that in their fervor to
destroy the local iBurst tower, the residents seem to have given up
on any effort to find the true reason why they are suffering from
strange health afflictions. Log this one in the annals of
irrational fear of radio waves.

The city's self-funded insurance costs keep rising, and it may be the last straw before the plan is dropped.
Only a month after the city appropriated $150,000 to the insurance fund to pay for the cost of insurance claims, Finance Director Mark Harold requested an additional $60,000 be appropriated to pay for more claims.
Harold said the money is needed for claims that came in only two days after the $150,000 was appropriated last month. One of the claims was $20,000 alone.
With little more than one week left of this year, more costs are bound to be incurred, he added.
As of this week the city has spent more than $1,000,073 on claims and premiums combined, and Harold expects that to reach $1.1 million by Dec. 31.
The city originally budgeted $902,900 for insurance claims this year and was already over that amount by more than $85,000 last month.
Under the self-funded plan administered by MCA Administrators, the city pays 100 percent of the maximum possible cost for its full-time employees. Two years ago the city was spending about $983,000 a year on the insurance, with a portion of that going toward catastrophic claims.
Harold said the premiums increased in May by 10 percent for the 56 full-time employees eligible for insurance. The city has absorbed some of that cost.
He also said the premium price is set by MCA Administrators and what employees contribute is determined by their contracts.
The policy will expire in May 2013 and Harold previously suggested joining the Ohio Insurance Services Agency consortium to save money.
"We need to address this again shortly," Councilman Bob Bieshelt said. The Republican has advocated moving away from self-funded insurance in prior
months, and Councilman Bryan Blakeman again suggested the city begin "shopping insurance" to see what other offers are available.
City Manager Keith Chamberlin agreed the current plan "needs looked at."
Council then approved the additional $60,000 be appropriated to the insurance fund to cover the costs.

Editor's note: This story in Monday's paper was incomplete. This is the full story.
For the 31 years she has lived in her James Island community, Wendy Tripp and her husband have learned to cope with traffic.
They've dealt with cars zooming through Harbor Woods to reach area schools. They've grown accustomed to their neighborhood being used as a shortcut for commuters between Fort Johnson and Harbor View roads.
But during that time, the Tripps and their neighbors also have fought back.
In 1986, they successfully urged state politicians to enact a law that closed the narrow, dirt-surfaced portion of Harbortowne Road that leads into 15 acres of undeveloped land. They hoped the measure would stop their pains from worsening if the landowner decided to build homes there.
That's why they're befuddled by a legislative maneuver last year that permitted developers to use the road and recently clear the tract for a new, 38-house phase of Harbor Woods.
Rep. Chip Limehouse, R-Charleston, was permitted to push through a "concurrent resolution," a measure typically reserved for honoring South Carolinians' achievements, without approval from the full General Assembly and the governor.
Tripp, a resident of Seafarer Way, which intersects with Harbortowne Road, said the move shouldn't trump a state law that has been on the books for 27 years.
"We don't mind what they build there," Tripp said. "But they have to find another entrance. That's the law, but nobody seems to care."
This month, Tripp and 24 other residents sued the landowner, the developer and the S.C. Department of Transportation in hopes of stopping the road from being used as the new community's entrance. A hearing is expected soon.
Their argument is rooted in the 1986 law they say overrules the Limehouse resolution and Charleston city officials' approval of the development.
After initially saying that he hadn't sponsored the resolution, Limehouse recalled that Michael Washburn, the landowner, had approached him last year and asked for a measure that would grant him access to the property via Harbortowne Road.
Limehouse said he researched the issue and couldn't find a reason that the 1986 law existed. He dubbed the statute an "oversight," so he drafted the resolution, he said.
He said Washburn did not mention plans to build new homes on the property. Limehouse said he simply wanted to restore a landowner's right to enter the property.
The parcel's owner is listed on county records as Harbor Woods LLC.
"The owner didn't have access to it. The city was OK with it," Limehouse said. "Those were the things told to us. That's why it was done. ... To develop or not to develop was not part of that process."
A message left on Washburn's cellphone was not returned. The developer, D.R. Horton of Mount Pleasant, also could not be reached.
Legislative move
For years, the paved portion of Harbortowne Road ended at Regatta Road, where it turned into a narrow, dirt- and grass-covered path. Trees and shrubs took over, making it just wide enough for a small car.
Last week, bulldozers, front-end loaders, graders and excavators choked the now-wider dirt road. Trees had been cleared. Pipes stuck up from the muddy ground.
Under a concept plan that the Charleston Planning Commission approved in January, that part of Harbortowne Road will be paved. It would be the lone access point for the new homes.
Developers indicated that a large pond would separate the new community's east side from Quail Drive, where the plan's critics think the new access point should be. The city's James Island Recreation Complex is to the north. A wetland and James Island Charter High School are to the south.
Because The Post and Courier's attempts to contact project officials were not successful, it's unknown whether any other entrance options were possible.
By introducing a bill in March 2012, Limehouse first tried to repeal the 1986 law that had been championed by James Island Republican Woody Aydlette. Besides closing the unpaved portion of Harbortowne Road, the law added it and two other community roads to the state highway system.
Limehouse's bill was referred to a committee, from which it never emerged.
The next month, Limehouse sponsored the concurrent resolution, H. 5168. Members of the Charleston delegation were added as co-sponsors.
Before recalling that he had championed the measure, Limehouse said he thought that Rep. Peter McCoy, R-Charleston, had been its primary sponsor. But McCoy said he knew nothing about the resolution until more recently, when he heard from disgruntled residents.
McCoy didn't know whether adding sponsors without consent was a common practice in the General Assembly, he said. But concurrent resolutions typically are less controversial, he added.
One of the other resolutions that Limehouse sponsored during the same session honored WTMA radio personality Rocky Disabato and proclaimed Aug. 31, 2011, "Rocky D Day."
Something 'wrong'
His resolution about Harbortowne Road was swiftly adopted by the S.C. House, and a week later by the Senate in May 2012. Those approvals didn't require roll-call votes, McCoy said.
A developer had pleaded with McCoy to sponsor legislation, but McCoy said he denied the request. The ensuing resolution got through without his input, but McCoy said he later denounced it in the legislature's official record.
Since then, McCoy said, he has attended two town hall meetings about the issue and has taken residents' side in the dispute.
"Something went wrong," said McCoy, who is an attorney. "But you learn something new every day. ... Now, I just want the law to be followed."
His knowledge of that area of the statutes, McCoy said, wasn't thorough, so he asked S.C. Attorney General Alan Wilson's office for an opinion about whether a resolution could repeal the 1986 law.
In August, Assistant Attorney General Anita Smith Fair said a court would likely rule against the resolution. It had not gone through the typical procedures of a bill, Fair wrote, in order to become law.
Tripp and the other Harbor Woods residents filed their lawsuit in early November. For them, it was a last-ditch move after Tripp said developers and city officials declined over the past several years to heed their arguments citing the 1986 law.
Their attorney, David Aylor of Charleston, wrote in the filing that the landowner was willfully disobeying the law. The suit asks for monetary damages that such a breach might cause and for an injunction to halt the road's use.
Aylor told The Post and Courier that a judge could hold a hearing in the case as soon as this week.
"This isn't about a big, bad development," Aylor said. "It's about that road and the anxiety its use has created."
Charleston County Councilman Joe Qualey, a James Island resident and one of the local politicians who have joined the cause, said normal procedures should have been followed if the law is to be changed.
"It is a quite peaceful neighborhood," Qualey said. "People there expected that road to be closed forever."

Wednesday, April 3, 2013
There was some disagreement among community members, but the feedback was mostly positive as close to 200 citizens attended a public input session at Goose Creek Primary School off Foster Creek Road last week.
The Berkeley County School District held the session in an open house format to tell parents and others how it plans to rezone students at GCPS and Sedgefield Intermediate School in the 2015-16 school year.
Those two schools will become Kindergarten – fifth-grade elementary schools in 2015, changing from the current format of K4 – second grade, and third – fifth-grade at the respective schools.
The addition of a new school in Tanner Plantation / Foster Creek area will also affect zoning of GCPS and SIS.
There were four stations with each showing the same two maps in the GCPS multi-purpose room.
Debra Simmons said her son Devin Simmons, 6, attends GCPS and will attend Boulder Bluff Elementary under the proposed rezoning.
"We're happy with the fact we're going to Boulder Bluff Elementary," Simmons said. "He would have gone to Sedgefield Intermediate. That school will become an elementary school and so will Goose Creek Primary."
BCSD Deputy Superintendent Archie Franchini took a break from speaking to parents to say the change from primary and intermediate schools to K-5 elementary schools will cut down on the transitions students have.
"There is more continuity as far as instruction is concerned," Franchini said. "It will shorten the route to school. It will decrease the chance of parents having students in more than one school and it will create more of a neighborhood school feel.
"For the most part parents have been positive (tonight.) Some are concerned about property value."
Resident Jim Rowan said there is a marsh where the new school is set to be built. While he does not have any children attending school he said he is concerned about traffic problems a new school will cause in the Ibis Glade neighborhood, specifically for those homes on Cooper's Hawk Drive.
"It's a really bad idea," Rowan said. "It's going to be a traffic nightmare on Tanner Ford Boulevard and the Foster Creek Road intersection. They're going to have kids come in and out of school when people are going to work. You won't be able to get in or out of the neighborhood."
"What the district is looking at is wanting parents and community members to give us feedback so we can change as needed," BCSD Public Information Officer Susan Haire said.
Superintendent Rodney Thompson said most of the feedback was positive but added some homeowners voiced their concerns, which will help the district make a more informed decision.
"Parents have been very supportive," Thompson said. "This is a proposed location. We've got the architect selected."
Patrick and Ayesha Johnson stopped by with their two children Mekhi Johnson, 7, and Malia Johnson, 3.
"I'm happy with (the changes) being that I have children attending school at a young age," Mr. Johnson said. "Attending a new school is exciting. Hopefully it will pan out well."

4. J. Starks (Vermilion Community College) at 49.4
5. E. Williams (CC of Allegheny County-Allegheny) at 48.9
ROCKFORD - Frank Cimino has been in one of those zones, and it doesn't look like he'll come out of it anytime soon.
"I try not to think about it," he said. "I just go out and shoot."
But the former Boylan guard has a lot of Rock Valley College fans thinking about it as he has been lighting up the scoreboard from 3-point range for the quickly-rising Golden Eagles (19-4), who have ascended to No. 5 in the latest NJCAA Division III national rankings headed into tonight's key N4C home matchup with Harper. Tip-off is 7:30 p.m., after the women's game.
"Frank has not only helped turn this team around, but he's turned himself into a future scholarship athlete," head coach Craig Doty said, later insisting Cimino will play for an NAIA or Division II four-year college after leaving RVC after next season.
"Especially lately, he's just been instant offense."
Cimino, who averaged 8.1 points and was 36-for-96 from 3-point range last year with Boylan, has come off the bench for RVC in all but four games this season. But he's made the most of his time on the floor, especially lately.
On Jan. 25, the 5-foot-11 freshman drained six of his seven 3-pointers and scored 19 points in 24 minutes in a key 7-point conference win over Joliet. Four days later, he buried seven of nine treys, went 8-of-8 from the free throw line and scored a career-high 31 points in RVC's blowout victory over Milwaukee Area Technical College.
Then last Saturday, he was 3-for-6 from long range and scored 19 points in a 89-64 win over Wright, where he logged a season-high 30 minutes of court time - something Doty insists will continue as long as he still shoots "lights out; like he has been."
"Right now, he's just got the green light to shoot whenever it feels right," Doty said. "He's a sharp-shooter, and mentally, right now, he's just on top of the world."
Cimino was 37-for-59 (62.7 percent) from 3-point distance in January, and he sits at No. 2 nationally in Division III with a 51.3 percent success rate. He also leads the country in 3s made per game at 3.8. RVC leads the nation in 3-point shots attempted a game at just over 10.
"I came out in the first game and decided I was just going to be aggressive with my shot, and I nailed like seven 3s and it just took off from there," Cimino said. "It's been a lot of things, though. This system just fits me perfectly, my teammates have all worked well together the whole way and my shots have been falling. I've been in one of those zones, I guess you could say."
The Golden Eagles, however, also have the ninth-ranked overall defense in D-III, which is what has fueled the climb into the ranks of the elite.
Page 2 of 2 - "It's been our defense, for sure, and it will have to continue to be," Doty said. "But, with that said, Frank has done a lot to his game, and his game has done a lot to this team. We're relying on him now, a lot more than ever before."

Guns are prime targets. About Nov. 23 regional news out of Hartford Ct. Bridgeport truck driver steals 111 handguns from Smith& Wesson factory. He and his friend sold some, the police recovered 28. Heard no more since. I guess these guys were not too bright.

odorf, you need to look into DataDots. It is amazing technology. I have it on my XD, my Mtn bike, dirt bike, and many other items that I own. They are a microscopic dots that adhere to a product. That is the best way to get your stolen goods returned to you once recovered by the police. 100% conviction rate for thieves caught with products that have the Dots on them. Each Dot uniquely identifies the item to its rightful owner. It's about to go like wildfire in the U.S. auto industry and Lowes HI will have it in some of their FL stores soon.

If you submit serial numbers to the police, go back in and check them often. Had 5 guns stolen years ago. Go back in to check, one not in the system anymore. Had them put it back in and a couple of years later it showed up fixing to be auctioned by the police. Had another recovered by the ATF. Did not call me. When I inquired with the ATF the response I got was "didn't insurance take care of it". Finally when they realized I was not going away, they told me they destroyed it and it was a mistake and they were sorry. I asked for documentation, still waiting. Tried to put the number back in and no one will do it.

I was talking to a local deputy sherrif at a gun auction earlier this year about some of the really high end firearms up for auction. Don't know if it's this way anywhere else, but he said that if the owner can't provide a serial number to prove ownership they have to auction off recovered firearms. Didn't buy any myself as the prices being paid were insane. A backround check and FFL transfer fee were required so no felons buying them, just people with more money than sense.

Electricity may move at light speed, but human responses do not.
Even if you have access to a computerized list, it could take months before the stolen item is listed. Lots of lag time there.
Next, who is the owner? If an insurance claim was paid, the new rightful owner is now a Insurance Company.
Cliff Notes version is that the Police or an insurance company aren't likely to function as a 'lost and found'. Kinda doubtful if either would spend the resources to ensure that a stolen firearn gets back to its prior owner. A Remington sculpture maybe, a Remington firearm, not likely.

at my old townhouse, I had a small floor safe that was poured in place with concrete. It would accommodate every handgun I owned at the time. The handguns all went in there when I would leave town along with various important papers.
The long guns got a good size aircraft cable through the actions and that went around the chimney pipe that ran up through the closet (behind drywall) in the master bedroom. Not fool proof but they weren't going to be carted off that easily.

If we would put anyone who commits a gun related felony, or anyone who is a third timer in a steel box with the door welded shut, and no outside contact we wouldn't have any crime in a short time. If a person can't live within the laws of society they need to be removed from society.

I am a believer in doing the time if you do the crime and for losing your rights in the process. However, the jails are so full that criminals get off in half the time with the 1 day off for 1 day of good behavior cookie. If the sentence is 10 years, they're out in 5 unless they are badder bad boys. I say 10 is 10 and I also say add 10 hard to any crime that has a firearm present whether used or not. If it involves a gun, 100% plus 10 should deter a lot of people from carrying a piece with them as they do their carnage.

Just a thought, but if he thinks he knows who it was, why not just get some friends together and kinda keep that guy under surveillance without him knowing and take pictures of him if he has guns with him? I know- something like that isn't easy, I was only thinking of what I might do. In reality, the thief needs to be punishedseverely

Hate to hear about things like that. it'll somehow get back to them or whoever did it ! Yep ! Also being that so many were taken,they might have already slipped up somehow,like if they sell them to someone that is not that slick,that person might screw up and sell one or two,whatever,,to the wrong person or people etc.The word is out ...

I really understand the stolen gun crap! I lost over a dozen hand guns and rifles and two over and under shot guns to house thief. They came in the back door and rensacked my home from one end to the other. My wife and I had other smaller items taken also. Ends up it was my step son and his drug buddies. I never saw any of my guns again. They still hang a horse thief!

Years ago, my neighbor had his safe chained to the back of a truck and the safe dragged out through the stud frame wall below a window. How the burglars loaded it onto the truck is unknown. The safe was not bolted to the floor.
I have one safe bolted to the slab floor and another, not bolted, weighs about one ton. Neither can survive mechanical advantage of a truck dragging it or a winch mounted on a truck. The good news is that level of activity is very time consuming and difficult to conceal. Most thieves are smash, grab and run. Sadly, I did leave some valuable guns out and they disappeared overnight. I will never do that again.
Cameras help with accountability and I hope to add some when I can afford them.

My cousin has a Heritage Safe - I believe it's 1.200 pounds empty. I have downsized and ordered a double door Stack On steel gun cabinet that I will beef up. In the back of a closet ( a tight fit & out of sight ) - bolted to floor - extra locking mechanism - and motion detector alarms ( two ). Will run an outdoor alarm this Spring. The alarms will definitely go off long before someone can open the cabinet.

I have learned gun thieves are pretty ingenius, and the ones around here anyway! They have a construction van a 1 ton, and tools to get what they are after. As for the law in this one is related to the head thief. In this case, they are still loose! The best advise is to have someone there at all times, or a good security system. I hope he gets his guns back!

Hidden storage areas are the best. I have two firearm storage hidden walls in my house that I built myself when I finished the upstairs of my house. My wife doesnt even know they are there, or whats in them. Most people's issue is they like to show their guns off. That is not an issue as long as they dont let them know where they are stored. I could give you an hour upstairs in my house with you knowing I had one and you wouldnt find it.
Fire would be its weak point.

A succession of amino acids could be identified by trapping them between nanoscale electrodes coated with recognition molecules and measuring the electron tunneling current across the junction. [Biodesign Institute, ASU]
Development of better, cheaper, and more clinically relevant genomic analysis continues apace, but what about the proteome? If anything, the proteome—the full set of expressed proteins—would tell us more about wellness and ill health than the genome. True, genes constitute the foundation of life's chemical hierarchy, but proteins (to mix metaphors) are where the rubber meets the road. Besides catalyzing the chemical reactions that sustain life, proteins are directly engaged in critical functions such as growth, differentiation, and repair; defense against pathogens; cellular housekeeping; and myriad structural duties.
So how hard could compiling a proteome be? After all, genome sequencing has become almost routine, and just 1.5% or so of the genome codes for proteins. Well, this is where things get tricky. While there are only about 25–25,000 human genes, scientists have already identified over 100,000 human proteins, and many, many more proteins no doubt remain unidentified. What's more, the human proteome has millions of protein variants due to alternative RNA splicing and post-translational modification. And even that's not all: It also appears that many so-called noncoding RNAs can actually give rise to physiologically relevant micropeptides.
If all that doesn't sound daunting enough, consider this: Aberrant proteins that are indicative of disease or disease propensity are often present in extremely minute quantities. How could such proteins serve as biomarkers if they are so few and far between that they remain, essentially, invisible? Alas, no technology exists that could do for these proteins what the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) does for targeted regions of DNA. That is, no means exist to boost the concentrations of selected proteins and thereby enhance signal strengths.
Taking the measure of the proteome remains a huge challenge, but many researchers insist on trying. For example, a team of researchers at Arizona State University's Biodesign Institute led by Stuart Lindsay, Ph.D., are refining a technique for single-molecule protein sequencing. The technique, which adapts technology that the team had used to sequence DNA, is known as recognition tunneling. It involves threading a peptide through a nanopore, an extremely tiny eyelet, which separates two electrodes that are coated with a layer of recognition molecules. When the protein is held between the electrodes, changes in the electron tunneling current between the electrodes is measured. Then, the current "signature" is analyzed to identify the amino acid. (Conceivably, this technique could be applied to peptides, amino acid by amino acid.)
The procedure is described in detail in a paper that appeared April 6 in Nature Nanotechnology, in a paper entitled "Single-molecule spectroscopy of amino acids and peptides by recognition tunneling." According to this paper, signal analysis turned out to be fairly complex, requiring the services of a machine learning algorithm. This algorithm, called the Support Vector Machine, was used to train a computer to make sense of the signals that were emitted when the amino acids formed bonds in the tunnel junction and current flowed between the electrodes.
The algorithm—the same one used by the IBM computer Watson to defeat a human opponent in Jeopardy—helped the computer learn to discriminate between the different signals that could be emitted by the same molecule. For example, many molecules are able to bind with the tunnel junction in different ways. Also, as indicated in the paper, recognition tunneling let the researchers "identify D and L enantiomers, a methylated amino acid, isobaric isomers, and short peptides."
The results of their work, reported the researchers, "suggest that direct electronic sequencing of single proteins could be possible by sequentially measuring the products of processive exopeptidase digestion, or by using a molecular motor to pull proteins through a tunnel junction integrated with a nanopore."
"The ability of recognition tunneling to pinpoint abnormalities on a single molecule basis," asserted Dr. Lindsay, "could be a complete game changer in proteomics." Dr. Lindsay adds that the kind of work accomplished by his team—exploring innovative strategies for handling single molecules coupled with startling advances in computing power—may open up horizons that were inconceivable only a short time ago.
By showing that the kinds of tools that made the $1,000 genome feasible are applicable to proteome profiling, Dr. Lindsay's team may even hearten those so bold to anticipate a $1,000 proteome. "Why not?" Dr. Lindsay asks. "People think it's crazy, but the technical tools are there. And what will work for DNA sequencing will work for protein sequencing."
While the tunneling measurements have until now been made using a complex laboratory instrument known as a scanning tunneling microscope, Dr. Lindsay and his colleagues are currently working on a solid-state device that may be capable of fast, cost-effective, and clinically applicable recognition tunneling of amino acids and other analytes. Eventual application of such solid-state devices in massively parallel systems could make clinical proteomics a practical reality.

Dear Carla,
We have a 3-year-old female husky named Sierra. She is a sweet, sensitive girl and other dogs always seem to try and bully her. When she was about 1-years-old, a dog attacked her and ever since that event she has gets really aggressive whenever she sees a dog she doesn't know. She's fine with dogs she knew before the attack. It is so stressful to walk her, especially around here where so many dogs are off leash! Is there anything we can do to help her?
- A Husky Lover
Dear Husky Lover,
Sierra's main goal is to avoid another attack and her aggressive displays are the only way she knows how to accomplish this. Most dogs will back off when another dog lunges, growls and shows teeth. Each time she does this and a dog does back off, she is rewarded because she has averted an attack.
There is no quick fix for this type of complex behavior problem, but a comprehensive training and behavior modification program can help her (and you) re-gain confidence when she meets a strange dog. In the meantime, here are some ways to better manage the situation before she explodes.
1. Stay calm. Sierra senses your energy. Her anxiety level will only increase more if you are nervous. Practice deep breathing during your daily dog walks starting when everything is calm. If you see a dog ahead, start breathing before the situation erupts.
2. Plan ahead. Think through the various scenarios where you have had problems in the past. Is there one dog in your neighborhood that is always loose? If so, find another route. Visual barriers can be extremely helpful for many dogs. Carry a pop-up umbrella to use as a shield in situations where a dog runs up to you.
3. Create distance. If you see a dog ahead of you, turn and go the other way. Dogs have a threshold distance where they can tolerate seeing another dog. Try to determine if Sierra's threshold is 20, 50 or 100 feet. By determining her threshold you will know when to calmly react.
4. Teach an "exit" cue. You'll need to teach this in an environment without other dogs around. Say a cue like "this way" in a loud, happy voice then make a quick turn and run away with your dog for at least 20-30 feet. When you stop, give her lots of wonderful treats or play a favorite game. Once she gets used to playing this game, you can use the "this way" cue before she reacts to an oncoming dog.
What should you do if an accident happens and she explodes? Leave as quickly as possible. At this point she is unable to process any cues you give. The emotional reaction trumps any rational thought process.
When you are ready to start working to truly modify her behavior, find a qualified positive reinforcement trainer to help you. This process will take commitment, but the pay-off is well worth it.

WPU Lunch & Learn Series: Rev. R. Lee Carter, Ph.D.
Main Parlor, 1st Floor Main Building
Wed Nov 13th, 2013
12:00 p.m. - 01:30 p.m.
William C. Bennett Chaplain
William Peace University is pleased to open to the public our annual Lunch & Learn Series.
Rev. Dr. R. Lee Carter, William Peace University's William C. Bennett Chaplain, will be the guest speaker for the WPU Community at November's Lunch & Learn.
Dr. Carter's topic will speak on "The Myths We Live By." Dr. Carter will examine myths not as "lies" or "ignorant imaginings," but as the stories that shape perceptions of the world and of others, stories that shape identities as persons and as stories that provide direction for facing life's challenges and for finding a way through it's different stages.
"Myths are springs of our collective wisdom, from ancient times to the present and have parallels in cultures around the world, Dr. Carter said. "If we all live our lives through myths, then our consciousness of these stories helps us better determine which we have outgrown(and need to be discarded) and which might provide for us a better paradigm for effective living."
The event will include a bag lunch provided by Sodexo. Register early!
Event Time: 12:00 p.m.
Event Location: Main Parlor
Tickets: $10 Adults / $5 Students (Note: a 3% entertainment tax is included in the ticket price.)

I am having trouble re downloading my XBOX LIVE account to my hard drive, but when I put my hotmail name and password in,it comes up that it is downloading but about 5 to 10 seconds later it comes up with "Sorry, Xbox LIVE profiles cant be downloaded right now. Try again later 8007045D". so I left it for 2 days and I came to try it again but it happened again. Has anyone had this problem and found out what was the matter, Thanks.
It sounds like there are a couple of different issues here, and it may be best to create your own thread so we can start with a clean slate. Cheers!
- Retired Support Agent -
I have the problem but not the answer... Its a good job xbox live is free...no , wait, why am I paying for this s**t?
Hey guys, sorry to hear about this issue! Josh, have you checked settings > system > storage > your device > gamer profiles to see if there is a corrupted or incomplete profile that you can delete there? If so, try deleting that, and give downloading another go. :-)
Mister Fitzer - Xbox Community Engagement
Hey guys, Right then, after a long and frustrating evening I have a 6 step fix! you just need a usb stick and some patience.
step 1. go into your hard drive and manually check to make sure all the save files have an owner; anything that says unknown profile, delete.
step 2. transfer all your data to the usb stick; some things wont move because you need to sign in to a profile, you can recover the tag to the usb and log in then move it. please note; its not worth worrying about DLC content...anything you have purchased/had a free code for, will be retrievable from the 'download history' menu in your gamertag profile when you recover it.
step 3. import your gamertag to the usb stick (it will work even though you cant download it to the hdd), look in your profile menu and use the 'transfer licences' function. you can only do this a couple times per year but hey, its not like xbox's die every day! ;-p
step 4. clear cache then format your hdd... please make sure you've transferred everything important to the usb stick and then taken the stick OUT!!
step 5. BEFORE you transfer anything back; recover the problem gamertag (any other tags will be imported from the usb when you do the save files and other content) as before, you may have to sign in to any relevant profiles in order to move some stuff.
step 6. ENJOY having everything back in its place... hello skyrim, I've missed you!
Good luck! I know its a pain in the proverbial but I did this by trial and error last night and have lost nothing except one fifa12 career save file because I wasnt paying attention when i transferred everything back to the hdd in step 5 (it wasn't from my profile and i didnt sign in and move it). hope it goes well :-)
I'm having the same problem. I read what turxofwar said but all of my game saves that i had on my profile say Unknown Profile. Am I really going to have to delete all my game saves. I put alot of time into those and i sure as hell don't feel like doing it over because of this fukn update.
If it even is the update. you guys said this back in Jan. The update was yesterday. Hopefully theres another way to fix it though because I dont even have a flash drive. I'd rather not have to buy one and I really don't wont to lose all of my game saves. I've had xbox live for about 4 years so I have alot of games saves.....
Hey there Tesus! I understand that you are having some issues downloading your profile. I certainly understand your aversion to deleting your game saves, so I won't ask you to do that right away. The steps that I would suggest do recommend downloading directly to a USB device though, with the hard drive disconnected. Is there any way you can borrow one for this purpose, or perhaps try downloading on a friend's console who has a USB device. Please let me know, thanks!
Xbox Community Ambassadors TeamJoin the community!
can i have some help with this issue please because i can still see my friends sign in yet i cant see my gamer profile in my storage? and am not sure how you transfer files
Hey Pro, I'm sorry, but you'll need to create your own thread for official support, please. :-)
okay so called the xbox hotline, and as usual they took a full 2 hours, and i had to call back( thx xbl..). they told me to go to my storage and press y to transfer content, but my xbox doesn trecognize my USB yes i have tried 6 USB's and googled it. absolutely nothing i try is working, i called back and all they said was "buy a new HDD" is this true or can you help me out??
Hey there Divine - unfortunately this error code indicates an issue with your storage device, as you've discovered. Have you tried your USB drives in another console? We'd be interested to see if the profile can be downloaded without the hard drive installed, which would require a USB Flash Drive that is configured as an Xbox 360 Storage Device.
Emily - Program Manager @ Xbox, Xbox One Preview Program
Try going to account.live.com also to see if account is blocked
lorsque vous n'arrivez pas a telecharger ou creer un profil sur la console et que vous recevez ce code d'erreur 8007045d.
ce probleme peut etre due a votre disque dur. je vous propose la solution suivante .
1. dettachez le disque dur de votre console
2. mettez une cle USB et rendez vous dans parametre/system/stocage/selectionez la cle USB et configurez la.
3.retournez sur accueil xbox et essayer de telecharger votre profile .
j'ai essayer moi plusieurs fois et ca a marcher avec succes.Translation:
I just went in and deleted my profile and re-downloaded it. Kept the games on there but just deleted the profile> the profile had become corrupted and I had had the same 8007045D code.
i have this problem as well but my problem is that it won't show anything in the memory so i can't use any of the profiles/saved games i have. Also it won't allow any importation of information into it i think my memory unit has died but i'm not quite sure. And if so can i save it? HELP PLEASE!
Just to give an additional way at trying to fix this issue:
If this happens:
1. Check HDD for corrupted profile, and corrupted files (in all folders) Only delete corrupted files, not the savegames.
2. Clear Cache
3. Turn off Xbox, insert USB-Device (FAT 32 formatted), take HDD off, turn Xbox on again.
4. Configure USB-Device and download profile to USB-Device.
5. Turn off Xbox again, re-attach HDD, turn Xbox on again.
6. Move Gamertag from USB-Device to HDD.
7. Restart Xbox.
If this worked, the savegames should be linked to the gamertag again, and you should be able to use it again. In any case, before formating the HDD you should try and contact Customer support first. It's better to at least try and save those savegames before shooting the big guns (format hdd) at small issues.

LONDON - When Ray Harryhausen was 13, he was so overwhelmed by "King Kong" that he vowed he would create otherworldly creatures on film. He fulfilled his desire as an adult, thrilling audiences with skeletons in a sword fight, a gigantic octopus destroying the Golden Gate Bridge, and a six-armed dancing goddess.
On Tuesday, Harryhausen died at London's Hammersmith Hospital, where he had been receiving treatment for about a week. He was 92.
Biographer and longtime friend Tony Dalton confirmed the special-effects titan's death, saying it was too soon to tell the exact cause. He described Harryhausen's passing as "very gentle and very quiet."
Article Photos
"Ray did so much and influenced so many people," Dalton said. He recalled his friend's "wonderfully funny, brilliant sense of humor" and love of Laurel and Hardy, adding that, "His creatures were extraordinary, and his imagination was boundless."
Though little known by the general public, Harryhausen made 17 movies that are cherished by devotees of film fantasy.
George Lucas, who borrowed some of Harryhausen's techniques for his "Star Wars" films, commented: "I had seen some other fantasy films before, but none of them had the kind of awe that Ray Harryhausen's movies had."
The late science fiction author Ray Bradbury, a longtime friend and admirer, once remarked: "Harryhausen stands alone as a technician, as an artist and as a dreamer. ... He breathed life into mythological creatures he constructed with his own hands."
Harryhausen's method was as old as the motion picture itself: stop motion. He sculpted characters from 3 inches to 15 inches tall and photographed them one frame at a time in continuous poses, thus creating the illusion of motion. In today's movies, such effects are achieved digitally.
Harryhausen admired the three-dimensional quality of modern digital effects, but he still preferred the old-fashioned way of creating fantasy.
"I don't think you want to make it quite real. Stop motion, to me, gives that added value of a dream world," he said.
In contrast to the millions spent on digital effects today, Harryhausen made his magic on a shoestring. His first effort, "The Beast from 20,000 Fathoms" (1953), cost $250,000 for the entire film. He commented wryly in 1998: "I find it rather amusing to sit through the on-screen credits today, seeing the names of 200 people doing what I once did by myself."
He found ways to economize. For "It Came from Beneath the Sea" (1955) he employed an octopus with six tentacles instead of eight. That saved time.
"Jason and the Argonauts" (1963) demonstrated the intricacy of Harryhausen's tricks. He had three live actors dueling seven skeletons. It took four months to produce a few minutes on the screen.
Other notable achievements included the film "Earth vs. the Flying Saucers," where aliens slice through the Washington Monument and crash into the U.S. Capitol. He also was behind "The Golden Voyage of Sinbad," where a one-eyed centaur battles a part-lion, part-eagle creature known as a griffin.
Harryhausen's last film, "The Clash of the Titans" (1981), was the only one with a big budget and major cast: Laurence Olivier, Maggie Smith, Burgess Meredith, Harry Hamlin and Claire Bloom. Hamlin as Perseus struggled to tame a white-winged Pegasus and to battle the snake-haired Medusa.
After the film, Harryhausen retired, explaining, "I was tired of spending year after year in a dark room."
Harryhausen is survived by his wife and daughter, Vanessa.
Matt Moore in Philadelphia and Bob Thomas in Los Angeles contributed to this report.

Berkeley County Council has authorized spending up to $285,000 to settle a federal lawsuit by eight Berkeley County Sheriffs Office deputies claiming unfair compensation for overtime.
The authorization was made during a special meeting of council July 14 after mediations by attorneys led to an agreement.
Blakely v. Berkeley County was filed in May 2013. Deputy James Blakely filed the complaint alleging the county did not reimburse him for overtime work. The complaint allowed other deputies to join. The deputies are K-9 and narcotics officers.
Attorney Marybeth Mullaney represented the plaintiffs.
She said the lawsuit is in regard to the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA), which ensures overtime pay and holiday pay is compensated. The complaint alleges Blakely and other Berkeley County law enforcement officers suffered damages as a result of FLSA violations.
The complaint stated that Blakely regularly worked in excess of 171 hours in a 28-day work cycle and was rarely compensated properly for those hours. Blakely has worked for the county since 2001.
My clients are pleased that the county worked with us to resolve this matter and they look forward to continuing to do what they love which is serving the citizens of Berkeley County. It was not an easy thing for them to step forward but they did so with the hope of making positive changes for all similarly situated County employees. I hope that the Sheriffs Office will recognize them as leaders and that they will continue to grow in their careers with the department, Mullaney said in a statement released to the Independent.
During the July 14 meeting, county council agreed to pay up to $285,000 with those funds coming from the fund balance.
The lawsuit will be settled once Judge Patrick Michael Duffy of the S.C. District Court approves the agreement.

Stetson University's men's golf program had its best finish in the Atlantic Sun in a decade on the course and had a strong year in the classroom as well, with six of the eight members of the 2011-12 squad earning a spot on the Atlantic Sun Conference honor roll.
The Atlantic Sun Conference recognized student-athletes for posting grade point averages of at least 3.0 during the 2011-12 academic year. Two Hatters were named to the Conference Scholars list. That list included a total of 406 student-athletes from around the league, 55 from Stetson. Those students were recognized for their sustained achievement over at least two years to go with a 3.4 or better GPA.
Seniors Micah Jacobsen and Sam Ryder earned recognition on that list. Senior Andrew Schiano was joined by sophomore Tyler White and freshmen Blake Snellings and Matt Taylor the All-Academic team for posting a GPA of at least 3.0.
"I am really proud that all six guys made the team," Hatters head coach Bob Weickel said. "They worked hard with a rigorous academic and tough golf schedule. It is outstanding that they all had over a 3.0 GPA."
Overall, the A-Sun recognized 1,416 student-athletes as All-Academic selections for their work in the classroom by reaching the 3.0 mark. Additionally, 89 percent of the A-Sun's 18 championship teams had at least half of the student-athletes on their rosters earn All-Academic recognition.
Stetson was one of four league institutions to have had more than 70 percent of its student-athletes recognized for having a grade-point average of at least 3.0. Stetson had 139 of its 197 student-athletes who competed in the Atlantic Sun recognized.
"I applaud all who continue to successfully achieve as student-athletes," A-Sun Commissioner Ted Gumbart said. "To see nearly two-thirds of our student-athletes earn this level of academic distinction means that they certainly are committed to the A-Sun's mission of 'Building Winners for Life.'
"It is important to recognize that this is a team effort, due to the commitment of the athletic administration, coaches and staff of our member institutions, who daily serve as the catalysts for such impressive development of our young people. Congratulations and thank you again to the institutions and to each student-athlete for providing such an outstanding representation of the Atlantic Sun Conference."
