Animal control officers and Erie County sheriff's deputies found dozens of emaciated animals and four children living amid animal waste and filth Wednesday, and charged two Clarence residents with at least five counts of animal cruelty and four counts of endangering the welfare of a child.
Authorities executed warrants against Amie Burkley, 36, and her husband, Matthew, 37, late Wednesday morning, after receiving a tip that horses had died on the property two or three weeks ago, said Jerry Schuler, Clarence animal control officer.
Schuler described the scene of animal hoarding at the couple's Goodrich Road home as something out of a "horror story."
"The smell of the house was overwhelming," he said.
Sheriff's Detective Christian Parisi said officers found a small pig, six dogs, and numerous cats, prairie dogs and guinea pigs inside the white clapboard house at 7360 Goodrich Road, between Lapp and Wolcott roads. Fecal matter from the animals was found in the living room, bedrooms and elsewhere, he said.
Schuler added that more than two dozen other animals and livestock appeared to be sick and starving in a dilapidated metal barn outside.
Two of the couple's four children, all of whom are under 18, were at the house and helped investigators identify the animals. The children did not appear to be in ill health, though they were underdressed and outside without socks, Parisi said. They have been temporarily removed from the custody of the Burkleys by Child Protective Services and are staying with relatives, he said.
Sheriff's Office spokeswoman Mary Murray said the four children are believed to range in age from 7 to 15.
The distraught mother, Amie Burkley, returned to her house briefly Wednesday afternoon, then drove off in her own car without comment.
Parisi said the Burkleys told him that they became overwhelmed by the burdens of looking after so many animals during the past few months and seemed genuinely remorseful.
Schuler said he spoke with the couple on several past occasions regarding his concerns about the livestock, but never gained permission to enter their house until executing a warrant on Wednesday. It appears the Burkleys were trying to "rescue" animals they had no resources to care for, he said.
"They understand they're doing something wrong," he said, based on his conversation with the couple, "but they don't know how bad it really is."
He described the case as the worst he's seen in his 15 years as an animal control officer in Clarence.
Out in the barn and elsewhere on the property, officers took possession of more than two dozen livestock, including horses, cows, goats, pigs, llamas, an alpaca, tortoise and countless chickens and geese. They were being evaluated by veterinarians for much of the day Wednesday.
The barn held only half a bale of hay for all the animals on site, Schuler said. "If you saw them, they were like living skeletons," he said.
He added that a passing good Samaritan dropped off 15 bales of hay to get the animals through the night.
Most of the livestock are being treated on site, Schuler said. The pets inside the house appeared to be in better shape, though several were ill and one dog was partially paralyzed.
The Burkleys surrendered all of the animals to the town. So far, three of the dogs have been euthanized, Schuler said, and some horses also may have to be put down.
The Burkleys were released Wednesday afternoon after their arrest and were issued tickets to appear in Clarence Town Court at a later date to answer the misdemeanor charges against them, Parisi said.
Schuler said the town is working with other agencies to find housing for all the animals that have been surrendered and are currently under town care. A sign on the door of the Burkley residence declares the home "unfit for human habitation."

Irish or not, more than 110,000 people are expected to attend the Dallas St. Patrick's Parade on March 16.
Experiencing a morning and afternoon at the parade on Greenville Avenue is to feel the pulse of one of Dallas' biggest events of its kind in one of the city's most vibrant neighborhoods. With a price tag of $120,000 — $50,000 of which was donated by Dallas Mavericks owner Mark Cuban this year — the parade has sprouted from homegrown effort into a big-city bash that's as traditionally "Dallas" as Texas-OU weekend. The Dallas Morning News is a sponsor of the parade.
Tens of thousands of pedestrians line the streets of Greenville Avenue the morning of the parade, nearly all decked out in green and toting coolers. Once the parade begins, decorated floats and people on foot bounce down Greenville — bagpipers, dancers, marching bands, city dignitaries and rowdy bar patrons, some tossing Irish-themed knickknacks and hollering at the crowd. When the parade is over, the festivities spill into local bars, restaurants, and nearby M Streets homes, where the Irish revelry usually continues long after sunset.
"I think it's great to be like Bourbon Street for one day," says Tom Stephenson, a Dallas resident who started the parade in 1979 with a mere 300 people. Back then, "there were more people in the parade than watching it," he says. The event grew to about 30,000 in the mid-'80s and has steadily increased in size. Money raised for the parade, gathered through sponsorships and float entry fees, covers security, cleanup crews and portable toilets. In the future, organizers hope it will raise an additional $250,000 in revenue for the city, says Mauricio Navarro, executive producer and president of RAIZ Public Relations and Special Events.
But to do that, one of the initiatives of the 2013 parade is to clean it up while they green it up. Whereas the parades of the '80s were a bit thrown together, "some of it bordering on bad taste," says Stephenson, this year's parade is supposed to honor the Irish heritage and not green-beer guzzling. The parade is planned by the Greenville Avenue Area Business Association, and president Jorge Levy, owner of Desperados Mexican Restaurant on Greenville Avenue, hopes to make it safer and more family-friendly, at the request of city leaders.
"I've talked with people all over the country who come to our St. Patrick's Day parade and events, and they're very enthusiastic about it," says Dallas City Council member Angela Hunt, who lives in the M Streets near the parade route. "I've been ensuring that while it's a great time for those who participate, that we ensure that we don't overburden our neighborhood — that the partygoers are respectful of the surrounding community."
Addison resident Whitney Ross, 29, thinks the parade doesn't need to get more kid-friendly. "The Dallas area has enough family-friendly things and not quite as many for the mid-20s, early 30s-aged people that just want to have fun," she says.
Plano resident Mike Tittle, who has attended the parade for 15 years, agrees: "It's just one day a year; let it be a little bit obnoxious."
While tens of thousands of paradegoers consider it a day to overindulge, dozens of businesses along Greenville Avenue call it the most important date of the year. "We cannot survive if we do not have this event," says Levy.
Tommy Donahue, who also serves on the business association board and is the manager at Milo Butterfingers, says his bar does half a month's business in that single day. "It's very vital to all our places if we want to stay around," Donahue says.
The parade begins at Wellons Drive and runs south on Greenville Avenue until it turns west on SMU Boulevard. Organizers begin planning for it months in advance, and many business owners hire additional, temporary staff just to accommodate the crowds. Expect cheerful, loud fans on the parade route and long lines afterward at Greenville Avenue bars and restaurants.
"I think it's the greatest day of the year," says Stephenson.
Follow Sarah Blaskovich on Twitter at @sblaskovich.
PARADE INFO The parade's Dash Down Greenville 5K begins at 8 a.m. (check the listing in Related Events on Page 36 for details). We recommend parade attendees arrive by 10 a.m. The parade begins at
11 a.m. at Wellons Drive and Greenville Avenue. Bars stay open until 2 a.m.
PARKING We recommend taking a cab or riding DART. If you must drive, take at least $20 cash to pay for parking in one of the local businesses' lots. A good corner to walk toward is University Boulevard at Greenville Avenue.
WHAT TO TAKE An ID; cash to pay bars, cab drivers and parking-lot attendants; and some extra tissues in case the portable toilets run out of TP.
WHAT TO WEAR You'll run the risk of getting pinched if you don't wear green. Wear comfortable shoes, as you'll probably be standing or walking for quite a while.
BEST BETS Stake out a spot on Greenville Avenue that's near a portable toilet — but not too close. You won't be able to cross Greenville easily during the parade, so plan to stay on one side of the street. Avoid asking businesses to use their restrooms if you are not a paying customer.
ROAD SAFETY Police will unhook the parade barricades and leave Greenville Avenue closed off to vehicles after the parade. If you plan to visit local businesses after the parade, you can walk north or south on Greenville safely with other pedestrians.
Sarah Blaskovich

This weekend, the inhabitants of the Durango High School gym will be decked out in a red-and-black scheme of a different stripe.
For one host, it�ll be a familiar feeling. For the other, it�ll be a weekend full of novelty and excitement.
The boys and girls basketball teams at Ignacio High School, by virtue of their district championships, will host their respective Class 2A Region 3 basketball tournaments beginning Friday at DHS.
The IHS boys will host regionals for the fifth consecutive year according to head coach Chris Valdez, so the experience is nothing new.
The girls, meanwhile, won their first San Juan Bain League and district titles in �over 20 years,� head coach Justa Whitt said Saturday. So when the Bobcats (14-7) open with Sanford (12-11) on Friday, it�ll be a new experience.
�It�s totally exciting, especially since the boys � we�re both playing together,� Whitt said Sunday. �That makes it even better.�
The boys will open with 10-12 Paonia, and with a victory would face the winner of Sargent (12-10), which Ignacio beat 60-45 earlier this year, and Lutheran (16-5) in the Sweet 16. Valdez knows a little bit about each team in the Bobcats� bracket, and he�ll spend the week getting better acquainted with all three.
�We�re gathering information as we go,� Valdez said. �(Paonia�s) record doesn�t show real success game-wise, but they lost about nine or 10 of those games ... by seven points or less.
�Everybody�s going to have a tough time with (Lutheran) because they play in the 3A Metro League all year. We don�t have anything to measure ourselves to them. ... I don�t know how far off we are � if we�re better than them or not as good as them � but all we can do is compare.�
Whitt also will spend her week gaining knowledge on her potential opponents as the Bobcats prepare for what they hope is a deep postseason run. If Ignacio tops Sanford, the winner of Paonia (17-4) and Del Norte (14-8), Sanford�s league mate, will await them.
But the key for the Bobcats, Whitt said, is ensuring that they maintain focus on the task at hand and not get distracted by the novelty of hosting regionals or any other potential distractions.
�We�ll have to be focused this week in practice, for sure,� Whitt said. �Not focused on whether we�ll win the championship but focused on each win as it comes.
�Why look forward to the next game when we need to focus on the game right in front of us?�

PITTSBURGH - No single player epitomizes the plight of the Pirates from terrible to terrific and their remarkable resiliency more than Pedro Alvarez.
Go back to April 23, 2012, and there was an article that appeared on Baseball America's website when Alvarez was hitting .108 with 16 strikeouts in 37 at-bats through 12 games. The article included the following line, basically the harshest thing a baseball expert could say about a player:
"You could argue that he's the biggest waste of hitting talent in draft history," the magazine's Jim Callis wrote.
Article Photos
Mirror photo by Patrick Waksmunski
Pedro Alvarez drives in the go-ahead run.
Everyone who was heavily critical of Alvarez at that point has turned out to be dead wrong. And that pretty much includes everyone.
"He's matured into a big league superstar this year," Pirates outfielder Garrett Jones said Sunday night.
A short while earlier, Alvarez had delivered a clutch single to drive in the go-ahead run in the eighth inning to help the Pirates beat the Cardinals, 5-3, in Game 3 of the National League Division Series.
This is a guy who endured incredible scrutiny 18 months ago, with fans and media blasting the Pirates for not sending him back to the minor leagues during his rough start in 2012. The No. 2 overall pick in the 2008 draft looked like a massive bust then, but to his credit, he's developed himself into one of the most feared sluggers in baseball.
"He's been a guy that's been criticized very harshly over the last couple years, but he certainly is everything that he can be," Pirates second baseman Neil Walker said. "He's as good as advertised."
Alvarez tied for the NL lead with 36 homers and had 100 RBIs this year, plus he's already hit two long balls in this series to go along with a .429 average.
Baseball, the ultimate sport of failure, will test the character of an athlete unlike any other game. To fail so drastically for a time and be so roundly criticized, only to pick himself up and become the star slugger the Pirates always envisioned, is a great testament to Alvarez's mental toughness.
"That's one of those things, not lose your confidence when things are down," Alvarez said after the game.
Things have been down for the Pirates for the past 20 years, but so many people battled through that great adversity to help bring the franchise to where it is today, one game away from the NL Championship Series.
They wouldn't be here had Alvarez not lived up to the enormous expectations.
"It's awesome. He's doing what he knows he's capable of doing," Bucs center fielder Andrew McCutchen said.
McCutchen knows a little bit about what Alvarez went through since he, too, was a prized prospect selected in the first round of the draft.
"I always kind of joke about first-rounders and Pedro being a big first-rounder," McCutchen said. "These are the things that are expected out of him being a first-rounder. You're expected to do well."
And if you don't, as Alvarez didn't until beginning with the end of April last year, the criticism is unavoidable.
"Some guys bloom a lot faster than others," McCutchen said. "It took him a little longer than others.
"Honestly, he was kind of rushed to the big leagues because of where he was drafted and the contract that he signed ($6 million). So he had to learn here in the major leagues. If you ask anybody who's played here or anybody who's played the game, it's tough to learn here in the big leagues and make that adjustment. But he's done that, and he's doing an amazing job."
No baseball player becomes successful without being able to compartmentalize, forgetting about one bad at-bat in a hurry and focusing on the next one. Alvarez is still very much a work in progress as an all-around hitter - he batted .233 with a league-leading 186 strikeouts this season - but he has proven he can overcome whatever adversity he's facing by compartmentalizing and coming through with big hits in the clutch.
"That's something that you gain over time and over experience and repetition," Alvarez said. "Everyone tries to be as consistent as possible, but that's one of those things you just learn over time and you just try to play the game pitch to pitch and move on after that pitch is done."
"I've been fortunate to be able to watch him over the past few years," Jones said, "and yeah, he had some struggles. But the struggles just taught him more about the game, more about himself, and it just made him a better player. He needed to go through that and those tough times, and he prevailed."
The same can be said about these Pirates, who seem unfazed any time they encounter difficulties because overcoming adversity is engrained in every fiber of their being.
Time after time the Cardinals came back on them Sunday night, and on each occasion the Bucs dug down deep inside and found a way to answer.
"Certainly, resiliency I think is a very big part of this situation and a big part of this year," Walker said. "The ability to turn the page regardless of how yesterday went or today went, we've been very good at that."
No one more so than Alvarez.

U.S. Sen. Bob Casey, D-Pa., chairman of the Joint Economic Committee, called for the House on Friday to pass a farm bill before Tuesday.
If it isn't passed, the U.S. Department of Agriculture will be forced to revert back to a 1940s-era milk policy that could push prices up to between $6 and $8 per gallon in 2013, Casey said.
According to the U.S. Senate Committee on Agriculture, Nutrition & Forestry, Congress passes legislation, commonly called the "farm bill," every five years. It sets national agriculture, nutrition, conservation and forestry policy. The last farm bill was passed in 2008 and expires this year.
"Without action on a farm bill, the U.S. will be forced back to outdated, Depression-era laws that will require the government to waste taxpayer dollars, increase prices on consumers and likely throw milk away," Casey said in a statement.
Under the old policy, the U.S. Department of Agriculture would be legally required to spend between $12 billion and $15 billion buying up milk. That would lead to a substantial increase in the price for consumers and a potential decrease in demand, which would then harm producers.
Additionally, the federal government would be in possession of large reserves of milk that could end up being thrown away.
Gary Long, president of the Blair County Farm Bureau, said if the bill isn't passed, farmers would be paid about $38 per hundredweight of milk instead of between $15 and $19 per hundredweight, as they are now.
He said that would actually be bad news for local dairy farmers.
"Although it sounds like a great thing, we can buy milk overseas cheaper, [and] that is where it will come from. Local milk will be unaffordable for the general public. It will be cheaper to import the milk. You have to move your product; that is the issue," Long said. "On the dairy side, we will drown in our own product."
Dave Myers, owner of Dave Myers Farm between Summerhill, Wilmore and New Germany in Cambria County, doesn't believe the price of milk will get as high as Long suggested.
"I am concerned, but it won't happen. I will bet my farm on it," Myers said.
The Pennsylvania Farm Bureau said the bill is long overdue.
"Ideally, we would like to see Congress pass a five-year Farm Bill; however, this doesn't appear likely because of the limited time left in session. We encourage the House, Senate and the president to work together to prevent the fiscal cliff and hope that a one-year extension of the Farm Bill is included in the fiscal cliff legislation," Kristina L. Watson, farm bureau regulatory reform director, wrote in an email. "While not ideal, passing a one-year extension of the Farm Bill will avoid the possibility that the 1949 law would impact agriculture in 2013."

Ashley Ridge battled through 22 innings this week to claim the Region 8-AAAA baseball championship.
A productive first inning was the major difference Monday as the Swamp Foxes earned a 5-3 victory over Summerville to move into first place for the region. Aggressive base running and a crucial error were major factors Wednesday when Ashley Ridge fought Colleton County for 15 innings to earn a 4-3 win and clinch the region championship outright.
The Swamp Foxes (17-4, 9-1) close out their schedule Friday with a non-region game at West Ashley and will enter the playoffs as a top seed.
Ashley Ridge coach B.J. Bellush says his team has made quite a turnaround from last season when it only won 11 games.
It all starts with the senior leadership, but also our younger guys are preforming like seasoned players, Bellush said. They are mentally tough and a fun group to coach. From the day our season ended last year these guys hit the weight room and then you could tell there was an attitude change during fall workouts. Im very proud of the kids and our coaching staff. Coach Givens, Coach Fletcher, Coach Rose and Coach Deering do a great job and that makes my job easier.
After getting out of the top of the first inning against Summerville with a double play, the Swamp Foxes scored 3 runs during their first turn at bat. Ashley Ridge leadoff batter Wesley Aschenbrenner reached on a walk and moved around on a bunt-single by Josh Litchfield and a Summerville throwing error. Aaron Miller followed with a deep single to drive in both base runners. Miller moved to second on the throw home and then stole third. He scored on a sacrifice fly by Jason Miller for a 3-0 Swamp Fox lead entering the second.
Ashley Ridge loaded the bases the next inning off two walks and a Josh Church single. Then Litchfield reached on a fielders choice that drove in Nick Rowell for a 4-0 Swamp Fox lead.
Summerville cut the lead in half in the fourth. Billy Peatross was hit by a pitch and scored off a single by Sawyer Bridges. Andrew Kenney then hit a grounder the Swamp Foxes attempted to turn into a double play. Ashley Ridge got the first out but not the second and Matty Powell scored on the throw.
Rowell led off the bottom of the frame with a double and scored of a single by Church for a 5-2 lead that held until the final inning.
Summervilles T.J. Hopkins led off the seventh with a homerun to cut the lead to 2. Johnston McCurry then reached on an error but Ashley Ridge closed the game with a fly out and an unusual double play. Peatross struck out but McCurry got a good jump on the pitch and seemed to have stolen second. However, the umpire ruled Peatross had interfered with the catchers throw to the bag and Ashley Ridge was awarded the third out.
The win avenges a 4-3 loss Ashley Ridge suffered at Summerville on April 2.
We played better defense tonight, Bellush said. We didnt make the errors we made against them the first time.
Carson Walls put in a gutsy performance on the hill to earn the pitching win. He threw six-plus innings and allowed seven hits and three runs. He walked three, hit two batters with pitches and struck out one. Jason Miller relieved him after the homerun and retired two of three batters he faced. The third reached on an error.
Carson didnt have his best stuff tonight but he wanted the ball, Bellush said.
He wanted to go out there in the seventh and I probably shouldnt have let him but then Jason came in and sealed the deal.
They both showed great mental toughness.
Church led the Ashley Ridge batters, going 2 for 3 at the plate. Aschenbrenner reached base four times.
Hopkins was 2 for 4 at the plate and reached base once on a walk. Peatross also reached base three times for Summerville.
On Wednesday, Church threw six and one-third innings and Jason Miller pitched eight and two-thirds innings to pick up the win in relief. The teams entered the 13th inning tied at 1.
With the help of two free bases and a throwing error, Colleton pushed 2 runs across in the top of the frame.
In the bottom of the inning, Rusty Grayson and Jason Miller reached on walks to set up an RBI single from Hunter Grover. After a double steal, Miller scored on a wild pitch to retie the game.
Jason Miller opened the bottom of the 15th inning with a single.
Grover moved him over with a sacrifice bunt and Miller headed to third on the throw to first. He tripped on his way and was called out at third, but after meeting the officials ruled an infielder had interfered with his path to the base so he was awarded third.
With two outs, Cooper Knowles hit a grounder that was mishandled by a Colleton infielder and that allowed Miller to come home for the game-winning run.

1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
1 large lemon, zested and juiced
2 teaspoons salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
1 large lemon, zested and juiced
2 teaspoons salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 pound pasta (Farfalle, Penne Rigate, work well)
1/2 stick (1/4 cup) vegan butter, cut into 1/2-inch pieces, at room temperature
4 cups baby arugula
1 cup cherry or grape tomatoes, halved
1 cup Vegan Parmesan (optional)
1/2 cup toasted pine nuts
2 tablespoons capers, rinsed and drained
For the dressing: In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, lemon juice, lemon zest, salt, and pepper until smooth. Set aside.
For the pasta: Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil over high heat. Add the pasta and cook until tender but still firm to the bite, stirring occasionally, 8 to 10 minutes. Drain and reserve about 1 cup of the pasta water.
In a high-sided skillet, whisk the vegan butter over medium heat until melted. Simmer until foamy. Continue to cook until the vegan butter has a nutty aroma and turns a caramel color, 3 to 5 minutes. Remove the pan from the heat. Add the pasta, dressing, arugula, tomatoes, vegan Parmesan, pine nuts, and capers. Toss until coated, adding the reserved pasta water, 1 tablespoon at a time to loosen the sauce, if needed. Transfer to a large bowl and serve.
Note: To toast the pine nuts, arrange in a single layer on a baking sheet. Bake in a preheated 350 degrees F oven until lightly toasted, 5 to 7 minutes. Cool completely before using.

What I like about Saint Vincent: This is a supportive community in which to grow intellectually and spiritually; the students are warm, personable, and generally open to reflecting on the challenging and perennial questions that constitute an examined life; the faculty support one another and form a genuine intellectual community; the monks help to ensure an outlet for spiritual development, and serve to remind us that we are always in the holy presence of God.
Memorable moment: When I came to interview here, I was struck by the peacefulness and opportunities for silence that are so hard to find in the modern world (e.g. on the campus grounds, in the Basilica, in Leander Hall), and, of course, the pervasive hospitality practiced with sincerity and as a matter of habit by the whole community (e.g. the students where I had been teaching generally avoided interaction with adults, whereas here I found students opening doors for one another, approaching me to ask if I needed directions, etc.).
What most people don't know about me: I did not start going to church until my senior year of college, and became a Byzantine Catholic in 1999.

Get Thee To A Hackathon!
A high-pressure cooker for startup ideas, many women have attended – and won – hackathons.
By Angie Chang (Co-Founder & Editor-in-Chief, Women 2.0)
When I visit New York next weekend, I will be attending the Hack'n Jill hackathon where there is one woman for every man. And while I am a web designer/developer, non-technical entrepreneurs are encouraged to attend hackathons such as Startup Weekends and AT&T Hackathons. In San Francisco alone, there are two hackathons this coming weekend – a solar hackathon and a RadiumOne hackathon.
There is no better or faster way to move forward on a website or mobile app idea than to go to a hackathon. Hackathons are usually weekend events where designers, developers, marketers and business people get together with the common goal

One candidate for the Senate 42 seat vacated by Robert Ford has raised more than all his five primary opponents combined.
Key dates
Tuesday: The final Democratic Senate District 42 candidate forum, 7 p.m., Trident Technical College, 9000 Rivers Ave.
Aug. 13: The Democratic primary is held from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m.
Aug. 27: The Democratic primary runoff will be held, if needed.
Oct. 1: The special election for District 42 is held.
Charleston lawyer Marlon Kimpson has raised $79,476, with about $10,800 of that coming from his own pocket, according to state campaign disclosure forms.
His challengers — Charleston lawyer Emmanuel Ferguson, retired jobs counselor Herbert Fielding, North Charleston businesswoman Margaret Rush, contractor Bob Thompson, and former Charleston City Councilman Maurice Washington have raised about $55,523.
Kimpson said his solid showing is proof his message is getting through, but his opponents expressed concern about the total and about how much — more than $30,000 — came from outside the Lowcountry.
"He's trying to buy it. That's what this is about," Rush said of Kimpson. "This district should not be for sale."
Fielding, whose father was senator two decades ago, said Kimpson's fundraising does appear "to be an inordinate amount of money," adding, "I hope we can maintain the common man's interest with that kind of donor base."
Kimpson said when people run for office, some of their supporter volunteer, while others donate. "I view our fundraising effort as an indication that people see the momentum in our campaign, and they agree with our message," he said. "I think it's a strong indication of support for my candidacy."
Ferguson also criticized the way Kimpson has spent his money, such as the $6,000 paid for consulting help to state Rep. Wendell Gilliard. Ferguson has said state ethics laws should be changed to prevent sitting lawmakers from endorsing someone while working for pay for them.
"I want to introduce a state law that prohibits an elected official from being a paid consultant and having the ability to publicly endorse a candidate," he said. "I just don't think it serves the people well when an elected official is getting money for their endorsement."
Gilliard's payments were made for field work, grass-roots organizing, door knocking and sign placement, according to Kimpson's disclosure form.
Kimpson disagreed with Ferguson. "The notion that he (Gilliard) is supporting me because he's received money from me is totally without merit," Kimpson said. "I cannot ask Wendell Gilliard to spend a whole day hanging up signs and talking to members of the community and knocking on doors without some consideration. That's a part of his business."
Washington raised the second-largest amount — $24,700 — though that includes a $12,000 loan and $7,400 of his own money.
Rush has raised $11,740 and reported no personal funds, though her donations included a $500 contribution from her consulting business on Rivers Avenue.
Fielding had raised $7,465, including $2,614 of his own money. Ferguson reported raising $11,413, including a loan of about $6,500.
Thompson reported raising the least amount, $205, including $80 of his own money. He reported spending $90 of that on gas.
The fundraising isn't the only source of contention. At least two candidates, Fielding and Rush, hastily arranged legal residences in Senate District 42 after Ford resigned and a special election was called.
Fielding said he has lived in the district for years and is working with a real estate agent to buy a home there, "but I won't do anything until the primary is over." Rush, who has lived in Goose Creek, said she has talked with North Charleston Mayor Keith Summey about where to move. "I will be the resident senator from North Charleston," she said. "I'm going to represent the entire district."
Kimpson said the residency issue is a legitimate question for voters. "At least I've lived in District 42 for more than a decade," he said. "Some candidates just moved to the district."
Washington, who has lived in the district for 30 years, agreed. "You wouldn't want someone who lives in Berkeley County to occupy a Charleston County seat," he said. "That should pose a real concern for voters in the district."

Would you install GNU/Linux on your grandmother's computer?
Would you?
So, would you install a GNU/Linux distro for your grandmother (or other computer illiterate person (...not that we intend to suggest that grandmothers aren't computer literate. We're sure there are plenty of computer savvy grandmothers out there. In fact there would be more and more every day. Please post a comment if you are tech-savvy granny.)) if you could? What distro would it be if you did? Why wouldn't you install it if you couldn't? Let us know your thoughts.
Mac vs. Linux
I'm a mac user here and I LOVE Ubuntu linux :) As much as I enjoy Free software and GNU/Linux, I find Mac OS X much more stable, secure, and user friendly than (most) distros of linux. However, any Windows PC that ever comes my way,
it's linuxed in the hour.
P.S. Under VMware & Parallels, I have over 6 linux virtual machines.
Would you?
I am new to gnu/linux and I just installed SuSE on my desktop pc. The install went great, no complaints there. I was cruising along until I tried to install a program. My computer is used by myself ,my 22 year old son ,etc. I have used mswindows since getting my first computer 10 or so years ago. I love the idea of free open software. I think wikipedia is a great success of the internet and it gets better with the more contributors and users. The thing is, I am not a IT person. While I love to learn new things,the only thing I have ever done in the command line is format. I would love to use programs like scribus for my small contracting business as well as alot of the other programs available for linux.My son likes to surf the net and go to sites like utube,myspace etc.He tried to download and install flashplayer and then we saw the real difference, installs. While I anderstand there is a learning curve of something new and unfamiliar,I am having problems. Why cant linux be an os for the masses? I like that you can customise your system, etc. but I have to be able to install programs. I'll keep playing around until I can get installs down on linux but this is not something I could do in a time crunch. Another thing I've noticed is there are as many distributions as there are christian church denominations. Cant anybody agree on anything? I googled easy linux program install and then I saw that this will definitely be a learning proccess. No installsheild or wizards. While I would like to see what is being installed and where etc I dont know that as of yet I will be able to install programs.This could be a problem for Grandma.I would like to be able to use freeware and proprietary software. If linux wanted to attract more people and not just the technically able,some user interface for installs would be a necessity for Grandma. Grandma has no knowledge of the command line. What are the easiest distros for installing programs? This could be a good place to start until I could get more familiar with gnu/linux.How about an EASYlinux for grandma and beginners.Though I have had no problems as of yet with anything but installing software. Not trying to be lazy, but these things take some time to learn. Until some agreement can be made on whether linux is going to be for knowledgable computer user and for the unsavvy Grandma will have to wait.
Fortunately, you are only misinformed...
"I am new to gnu/linux and I just installed SuSE on my desktop pc...The thing is, I am not a IT person."
Great! you don't have to be.
"Why cant linux be an os for the masses?"
Linux is a kernel used by a whole bunch of OSes based on GNU and Linux. There are some distros that are designed for server use, some that designed for use on very small computers, some that are designed for use in extreme conditions and others that are designed for beginners on the desktop/laptop. GNU/Linux is for everyone not just the masses.
"Another thing I've noticed is there are as many distributions as there are christian church denominations. Cant anybody agree on anything?"
The makers of the various distributions do agree... to disagree. They don't try and force anyone to do things "their way". They are quite happy doing things their own way. This is called freedom. Think about cars or cereal or icecream flavours? Why should everyone be stuck with only a couple of choices. There are over 6 billion people on this planet. They all have their own individual needs and tastes. Designing one system to suit everyone would be impossible. Choosing the right one for you is easy: if you are a beginner and you don't want to use have to use the command line and you want it to be easy to install applications then you should use the most popular distro there is at the moment - Ubuntu.
"If linux wanted to attract more people and not just the technically able,some user interface for installs would be a necessity for Grandma. Grandma has no knowledge of the command line."
Grandma doesn't need to use the command line and neither do you. There are distros that are designed especially for beginners like Ubuntu. You shouldn't need the command line for Ubuntu at all. And, even if you do, it should only be a matter of cutting and pasting code straight off the Ubuntu website into your command line and hitting enter. If you can press Ctrl and C (copy) and Ctrl + V (paste) or use a mouse to copy and paste then you can use the command line too. You really don't need to know your way around at all. Trust me, I don't. I just follow the instructions I'm given by the guys who do know their way around. And it works.
"What are the easiest distros for installing programs?"
Installing applications is very easy on Ubuntu (and quite a few other other distros too); it's, in fact, easier than with Windows. You don't even need install wizards, you just open a program called Synaptic Package Manager from the System->Administration menu, check a box next to the name of the application you want to install, and hit the Apply button. Then you have to hit okay once or twice and it downloads and installs the application for you, into the right locations and adds an entry in your menu. That's right! you don't even have to go looking on the net for the software to download. My 8 year old was shown how to do it once and now he installs applications (mainly games) on his own without a problem.
"Until some agreement can be made on whether linux is going to be for knowledgable computer user and for the unsavvy Grandma will have to wait."
GNU/Linux is for everyone: hardcore techies, complete newbies, and everyone in between including grannies. If granny can use a computer she can use GNU/Linux.
If you managed to install SUSE then you will find Ubuntu just as easy if not easier and I would really urge you to try it. You can download the LiveCD and check it out. You can then use it as an install CD. If you can't download it they will send you one for free.
If you want to see how easy it is to use Synaptic Package Manager look here.
If you want to get flash going using Ubuntu you can install Automatix2 available here. The instructions are very straight forward and can be found here. Simply find the instructions for your version of Ubuntu and follow them. It is simply a matter of copying and pasting and hitting Enter.
I hope this helps.
Would you?
Well, I wouldn't mind installing a GNU/Linux distro on the pc of my 79 year old mother. The viruses and other malware that have been plaguing Windows, have totally scared her away from the net, which is a damn shame if you ask me. A good, stable Linux distro might convince her otherwise.
i wouldn't do it
i wouldn't do anything.
1. i've had too many family members ask my personal, technical opinion and then total disregard it. "if the advice is free, then freely disregard it," seems to be the mindset.
2. if my relatives are going to have computer problems (and inevitably they do), then they are going to have to blame themselves and whatever software they chose, not me and the software i chose.
3. i only install software that the user requests, and i haven't had anybody yet request Linux. i wouldn't even install a particular version of Windows without their insistence, because otherwise something will inevitably go wrong and i will be the scapegoat.
4. only if i'm readily able to fix any problems that might occur (hardware or software), would i even consider installing my operating system preference. because even if it was hardware that broke, if i chose the operating system, then i would be blamed. the only redemption to "forcing" my software decision on a family member is to quickly resolve the problem, and unless the computer resides in my own house, i can't guarantee that (because even remote access can't fix a hardware problem, and my software decision would still be blamed).
so, it's not just Linux, but i won't even install a specific version of Windows (i prefer the slim and simple Windows 2000 over XP or Vista as it's currently indistinguishable from them on a general user level except for cosmetic details) except at the user's insistence. the user has to make the decision, and live with the negative consequences of it (and with a system as complex as a computer, there's always some negative).
It sounds like you need a new family. But I can relate.
my grandmother is dead
and my mother is 85
I think the point is...
Would you install it for "computer illiterate [people]"?
Gran's been gone for many a year
Granny left us in 1985, which was before the PC really took off.
Would I have inflicted Vista on the poor old dear when there is free software available?
Most certainly not!
Being a pensioner, she would have loved the price of GNU/Linux.
She would soon have worked out how to use Thunderbird when she realised that she could drop a line to all her rels in the 'Old Country' and it would get there straight away, instead of waiting weeks for it to get there on the 'steamer'.
She would have loved using Firefox to check out pictures of her hometown in Stratford as well as being able to buy things online from anywhere in the world at the cheapest price.
Granny would have loved GNU/Linux and I would have been the first to make sure she never got stiffed by M$, even if she did have that sort of money to waste on a second-rate OS.
The second option
I chose the second option. I expect if I installed gNewSense on my parents' computer, they could use it quite happily. They don't use it a huge amount, and they're only uses for it are really reading and sending emails, browsing the web and typing with a word processor. However, one thing they wouldn't particularly like would be having the learn the differeces in the applications from those they use on their Windows XP system at the moment, even though they're pretty small.
I'll probably install gNewSense for them when that Windows system starts to mess up and becomes pretty much unusable, as it inevitably will do at some point. I expect they'd be quite supportive of the ideals of the free software movement, particularly the refreshing change of not being called a "pirate" for sharing something useful with other people.
GNU - free as in freedom
If I lived close enough to my parents or grandmother, I'd be happy to install Ubuntu or Mepis for them. As it is, being several time zones away they would not have anybody to help them out should something come up, so unfortunately it's not going to happen just yet.
I would in a heartbeat
I'd set up a K/Ubuntu computer in a heartbeat if I thought my grandmother (or my mother, for that matter) would use it. But they have no interest in using computers, even for simple email.
Then again, this week is my grandmother's 92nd birthday... maybe I will give her a computer as a birthday present.
My step-father uses a computer for simple email (he has a free Juno account for his email, which I don't think will work with Linux) and for simple word processing (basically, a typewriter with a spell check, although I was able to talk him into using OpenOffice.org Writer instead of MS Word when he lost Word a couple of years ago). That is the extent of his knowledge of computers, and that is all he needs or wants to know.
I was a die-hard Windows user for many years (I picked up an upgrade copy of XP within a couple of days of it's release), but I eventually got fed up with Windows and Microsoft and switched to Linux instead. Now I am extremely happy with Kubuntu.
I would as long as it is a user-friendly distro
I probably would, but I would make sure it is a system which is easy to set up and install software on. Maybe something like Freespire with CNR.
I would also ensure that I have remote access to her PC in case she does need help with something.
Nothing's Too Sacred : : : Soar Like An Eagle
i would go out of my way to
i would go out of my way to install linux on anybodies computer. it's the least i could do for fellow human being.
Have To Be Easy TO Use
Definitely NOT *buntu. All the multimedia codecs don't work out of the box, etc. I love Kubuntu, but not for a new Linux user.
Also, not GNOME based. GNOME doesn't look enough like Windows to be productive. KDE is a much better choice for someone who just wants to know how to use Linux.
Freespire might be a good choice. Installs a ton right out of the box. Plus, looks more like Windows than other KDE-based distros.
Dear God, NO!
Hell no!
I use Ubuntu daily, but I wouldn't curse my grandmother with it. I can't tell you how many times I've tried to upgrade just one or two packages only to have the distribution actually break.
XP isn't perfect, but it works much better than Ubuntu or Fedora Core.
Re Dear God,NO!
What on Earth can you be doing to Ubuntu to repeatedly "have the distribution actually break" when you try to upgrade packages. I haven't heard of anyone having problems of this nature. Have you posted this on the Ubuntu Wiki?
I recently had the dubious pleasure of re-acquainting myself with XP, and it was even more awful than I seem to remember it. If your Ubuntu isn't running rings around the likes of XP then you must have an unusual problem that requires further examination.
if your whole distro
if your whole distro explodes when updating packages, you must be doing something wrong... are you sure your harddrive isn't in about ten million little pieces?
unfortunately, no
My parents were computer-illiterate until I moved to another country, and they had to choose between (a) spending a fortune on international phone-calls (b) becoming computer literate and using Skype, GTalk and all similar stuff.
I would really prefer to install Ubuntu. I use Linux exclusively, I dislike Windows' interface and design philosophy. What is more, my father seems to enjoy more using Gnome on my laptop than Windows XP on his desktop.
However, I just asked myself the question: what will happen if something breaks? As I am abroad, I cannot just come and fix it. Also, if the computer is down, I don't have any comfortable way of communicating with my parents. As far as I know, my parents don't have a chance of finding a Linux literate "computer guy". What is worse, all their friends use Windows---so If they used Linux, they wouldn't have the possibility of learning something from them. So, eventually I just installed XP :-(
However, there's some hope. When my parents reach the level of being able to ask for help in the Internet, I may suggest them to try Linux.
I would do my grandmother's computer in a heartbeat. In fact, I am talking to my aunt about it right now and my father already uses Ubuntu at home.
All he does is browse the web and webmail. For him, it was a no brainer. He had Windows ME and it was crashing all the time.
I showed him Synaptic and how to add and update as needed and he has figured the rest out by himself.
Since I installed Ubuntu, he has only emailed once or twice with questions and by the time I got around to calling him, he had already figured it out.
I am so proud of that old man!
Sure if she had not dead
In fact, I would install Linux in anyone's computer if he/she never heard the word Windows.
Linux is easy for someone who never used Windows.
Heck yeah
I have installed Ubuntu Linux for my mom who was not that familiar with computers then but have since greatly adapted. It shows that Linux desktop is as intuitive if not more as any other out there.
She has ripped CDs, downloaded songs and copies them on to her pocket music player using Amarok, voice chats with me through Skype. We video conference through gnome meeting, to name a few. And iny complaints) there are any problems I just remotely login to her computer and fix it from here. The first time was fun. She could'nt figure out how I did it. I told her that I am going to the "school of magic" part time. :)
It's free!
I'd install Ubuntu or maybe Mandrivia and make a separate account for her, disabling features that she doesn't need.
Yes - later
Linux is getting more & more User-friendly. Still got a bit to go before it's an Out-Of-Box experience for novices, especially without broadband.
I HAVE started to instal Linux on my grannys computer, but she insists that in return I accompany her to church for the next four weeks in penance - plus I must contribute at least £50 per week to the offeretory box! Some deal this!!
For how many years?
See the link at http://www.linuxjournal.com/article/6562 to see what one Grandma thought of Linux back in January of 2003.
Just imagine how she feels today.
Paradise; can it be all I heard it was?
I close my eyes and maybe I'm already there.
I've tried installing Linux for my mother and my husband. The problem there is they use the computer too much and they expect everything to work easily. I'm not available enough to fix everything. I try to convey that the answers are usually out there somewhere, but its amazing how much learning we take for granted - eg. the command line, elementary scripting, editing /etc files
My grandmother only used the computer to order groceries online. I should be able to get that to work. Anything else would be a bonus.
But do they use Linux in the hereafter?

INCLINE VILLAGE, Nev. - The political commercials and polling phone calls are over (thank goodness!) so investors will turn their attention to the fiscal cliff. Unless congress acts, on January 1 taxes will increase at the same time that spending cuts agreed upon as part of the debt ceiling deal of 2011 take effect. The economy will take a one-two punch. Will the stock market?
The effects of inaction regarding the fiscal cliff are well known. We'd see a recession next year amid a fall in capital spending. Investors would invest less, take fewer risks and hunker down, much as they are now except even more so. Government would raise a bit more money from taxes on income, dividends, capital gains and interest, but there would be less of all those to tax. Unemployment would rise. Standards of living would fall. The federal deficit would still be more than one trillion dollars. Not surprisingly, the polls show that a huge percentage of Americans expect a deal to be struck no later than January or at least an agreement to keep everything as it is for another six months so wide-sweeping tax reform can be worked out. I agree. Could politicians be so stupid as to willingly push us into a recession due to the fiscal cliff they crafted? Many would say yes. I disagree (I think).
While the media are sounding the alarm about the fiscal cliff, and rightly so, people seem indifferent, at least for now. Consumer sentiment is on the rise and retail sales rose 1.1 percent in September, the third straight monthly gain. Confidence is at a five-year high. Housing starts rose 15 percent last month and building permits were up 12 percent. People are dining out more often and buying smart phones and electronics. Perhaps Christmas sales will also surprise the skeptics. CEOs, however, aren't as optimistic. They can't be optimistic, given the uncertainties of federal finances and tax rates.
The fiscal cliff's impact on the economy will be gradual at first, then quickly grow. It will then force businesses to hunker down, invest less and put off hiring. Stock investors will pay a price, too, as they always do early in a recession. While time is running out, this man-made crisis can still be averted. It's up to congress now (gulp!).
