Technical Specification For Voting Machines
Voting Machine Technical Specification Project
[NOTE: Please address non-technical issues on
. Take arguments in favor of older counting methods to
or some other, more appropriate page. Some discussion moved there to reduce page clutter.]
The window for getting this spec submitted for the 2004 election has closed, but the quest for a secure voting machine spec continues. Now there are Congressional committees and independent research groups trying to address the very issued we have been thrashing out here. How about that?!
This is really,
needed in The Good Ol' US of A before we have our next major election. Otherwise, we may not need to hold any more elections, since the people who make -- and program -- the voting machines are all from one political party. Once a spec is in place maybe people from around the world will be interested. Maybe not.
So! Let's put our bright little minds together to come up with a fairly simple description for a layered voting machine design. It should have an open, formula architecture for the hardware, have software that is 100% Java (for transparency and testability), and have a bulletproof auditing and logging subsystem that is encrypted and protected by vicious dogs.
No discussion of electronic voting and voting machines is complete without reference to the work of Dr. Rebeca Mercuri:
. It would be wise for contributors to this page to do a little research first so as to make informed observations and contribute worthwhile suggestions to this discussion. Note also that most other online articles quote heavily from Dr. Mercuri's work, so this is the primary source for voting machine references. The other site of note is Black Box Voting [
source for ongoing news pertaining to electronic voting mechanisms. (Note: do not refer to www.blackboxvoting.com by mistake; you will be taken in a very different direction.)
We need to talk about a limited range of technical matters concerning voting machines and automated vote counting systems, since these boxes are here to stay and we have to make the best of them. There is a clutter of clatter to replace the former deafening silence in the Internet community about the technical solutions to the problems of voting machines. We need to bring some of these issues to a resolution.
Here is an article discussing security flaws in existing voting machine software that y'all might be interested in:
Yeah, this is a reference to Mercuri's work yet again. How many more article references are we going to get like this?
And you might be interested in this project:
is a Good Idea®. Choice Plus had talked about their stuff as being open source for the Aussie project, but it wasn't published on their site (I found it elsewhere). Maybe we'll get a chance to see something good through the Center for Voting and Democracy. However, keep in mind that this solution is still in C, so it doesn't really meet the Java transparency requirement.
Colors used on the screen will not be significant in feedback operations -- only their contrast will be. Colors must be neutral to color blindness.
Sounds must be unique in context; alerts must be significantly different from confirmations.
Feedback/confirmation must be both visible and audible. [Note: how to specify so that the widest range of handicaps is accommodated by the machine?]
Verification & Validation
There must be no possibility of the displayed candidate's name being different from the voter's selection. For touch screen and ATM-style systems this means that the candidate's name needs to be in a box that is no less than 2 em spaces high, with a margin of at least one em space, with the candidate's name in the center of the box in both vertical and horizontal axes. During calibration the touch registration can not be off of the screen position by more than [XXX distance] as measured directly on the screen. For ATM-style screens the center of the candidate box can not be vertically offset from the button by more than [XXX distance] as measured directly on the screen.
For touch screen and ATM-style machines the user's selection must be fed back by audible and visual means. The machine will make some distinguishable sound to indicate a valid vote was cast, and the screen will change color (see above) or flip background/foreground colors to highlight the selection made.
The voter must have the option of canceling or changing his vote before it is recorded. The display/sound will confirm this.
When the voter has completed voting the machine issues a paper receipt as proof of vote. This receipt will contain a PGP ID for the ballot cast. Should the voting machine have some issue in testing later the election commission can issue a public notice of vote receipts (a list of PGP IDs) and those with matching printed receipt IDs can re-cast their votes. The PGP may also be useful in recreating a complete ballot [although how is still in question].
Voter Operations
Under vote: The machine informs the voter that he still has votes to cast, but doesn't force him to cast those votes.
Over vote: On touch screen and ATM-style machines the voter simply can't over-vote. On optical scan machines the scanner informs the voter immediately so the voter has an opportunity to declare a spoiled ballot and re-cast.
Logging and Audit Trail
The machine makes an internal log (with hardcopy) of
operations. This log must be visible to the outside world but can't be altered until the votes have been tallied and the election is closed.
The machine's log of ballots must not be visible at all until the final tally is done.
Remote Operations
Only status logs can be pulled remotely.
End-of-day tallies can only be push operations and can only occur once. Tally reports are verified complete before the operation is marked complete.
Under the heading Remote Operations the spec suggests that logs be pulled remotely, but tallies be excluded from this.
I suggest that it is a major mistake to allow
remote access other than the prescribed tally collection (a one-shot push).
Also, the logging and auditing description is terribly weak. The rest looks like a good start, and a good idea. But we haven't much time, if y'all are serious about this. Get after it with a vengeance, please.
-- JimSawyer
Yeah, Jim, you're right -- there isn't much time. Officially the federal election organization (commission? committee?) window closes early in January 2004.
The idea of the remote pull for machine status logs was so that the machine could be tested while in operation without taking it out of service. A member of the Board of Election Commissioners, for example, could verify that the machine is operating without problems, but couldn't tell how many ballots had been cast or for whom.
This spec is very weak as yet. The logging and auditing are just one weak aspect. Feel free to contribute.
Some suggested specifications:
Must allow for recounts/allow audits (i.e., only maintaining a running total is not sufficient)
Must not lose votes due to power loss, etc.
Must be tamper evident (physically and electronically)
Must be verifiably set to zero at the start of election
Must be easily maintainable (equipment used heavily one day a year and then sits in storage).
Must be easily and uniformly configured for slate of candidates
Must prevent updates to the slate of candidates
Must be easy to
Must be secure and protect votes during maintenance. If a machine fails on election day, it must not lose votes already cast, the maintenance personnel must not be able to read current votes, add or delete votes.
Must allow secure independent validation of the previous voting attempt without revealing details of the vote. If a voting machine fails, a voter should be permitted to vote again on another machine, however, a polling place official must be able to verify the vote failed prior to granting this permission.

You and spouse want to work out the terms of your divorce agreement through mediation, but you're not clear what's required of you. And you don't know if you can expect to resolve all your issues using this process.
This is a two-part series discussing what you should bring to a mediation and what you can expect to take away:
Put succinctly, you should bring to your mediation:
An open mind
"I'll never get anywhere talking terms with that $%#@!"
That is often how one or even both parties feel when they walk into a mediation for the first time. You can't even stand being in the same room with your spouse, so how are you going to agree on divorce terms?
Please read the rest of Bring What's Necessary To A Mediation, Take Away What's Needed at Joanne's blog.

The fashion world has fallen head over heels with American songstress Lana Del Rey. Having warbled her way onto Vogue's front cover, she has cemented her style icon status by having a Mulberry bag named after her, the del Rey. Honestly, the Lana would sounded so much better, or even the Lizzie Grant (her real name).
I can't help feeling that the whole Del Rey phenomenon has been so carefully manufactured that this is just all just piece of some record executive's master game plan.
Still, pessimism aside, it's a nice bag and is sure to do well. For as long as Del Rey is the darling of fashion at least.

The Jakarta Post
Thousands of Indonesian Democratic Party of Struggle (PDI-P) members launch a long march to the State Palace in Jakarta to protest against the recent subsidized-fuel price hike.
Kontan.co.id reported that the mass gathered at the Tugu Proklamasi at 7:30 a.m. on Wednesday and began their march at 10:30 a.m.
PDI-P senior politician Ribka Tjiptaning said that the march was the last ditch of resistance from the party against the hike.
"We have been defeated in the legislature and now we will continue our resistance outside," Ribka said.
The subsidized-fuel price has been raised after the government and the House of Representatives agreed to pass the 2013 revised state budget (APBN-P) bill into law on Monday.

Randall County Sheriff Joel Richardson hopes to make an arrest or arrests within a few days in the case involving a .22-caliber Ruger rifle stolen from the county's animal control officer this month.
Richardson said he has more than one suspect in the case.
Sgt. Randy TenBrink of the Amarillo Police Department said nine members of the APD dive team responded to a Crime Stopper tip and located the rifle at 11:15 a.m. Wednesday in 10 feet of water about 10 feet from the dock at Southeast Park lake.
TenBrink said the tip came in 25 minutes after police released information about the missing rifle on Crime Stoppers.
The rifle was cleaned, dismantled and found to be in working order, he said.
Richardson said because the rifle was found in the water and mud, any traces of the gun being fired would be gone.
The rifle was stolen earlier this month from the animal control officer's county issued truck while parked at his residence.

INSULIN injections could become history for millions of diabetics, thanks to a breakthrough by Scottish chemists. A drinkable insulin has been developed, spelling an end to the four jabs a day that many patients have to endure.
There are 135 million diabetics worldwide, and it is expected that the figure will rise to 300 million by 2025. There are 575,000 insulin-dependent diabetics in the UK alone.
Biochemists at Ayr's Hannah Research Institute, however, believe that their discovery will revolutionise the lives of those with the condition.
Currently insulin, which is used to control blood glucose levels, has to be injected, as digestion of it would make it useless. Soon, however, it could be carried by an emulsion liquid, known as APSET, which is stable in the stomach's acidic conditions.
The substance has already carried insulin, growth hormones and vitamin E successfully through a simulated digestive system.
Tests will be carried out on animals before the product is tried on humans, but the developers of APSET - acid protein stabilised emulsion technology - are confident that their discovery signals a major change in the way diabetes sufferers are treated, it was reported .
Jenny Hirst, of the Insulin Dependent Diabetes Trust UK, welcomed the news with "a touch of caution". She said: "If someone has done this and can do this and if this is as safe and effective and controls blood sugars as well as insulin that is injected, this will be the answer to a lot of people's prayers."
No-one from the institute was available for comment.

BROOKSVILLE — It's a question that has lingered since Hernando voters last weighed in on the topic more than two decades ago:
Should the county appoint or elect its school district superintendent?
The issue is getting new life thanks to a School Board candidate who is making a push for an elected superintendent one of the central pillars of his campaign.
There are plenty of good reasons why a superintendent should be elected by voters rather than appointed by the School Board, says Robert Neuhausen, one of four candidates vying for the seat left open by James Yant, who is not seeking re-election.
The big advantage, Neuhausen says: public accountability.
"It's going to cause that person to address issues and answer questions in front of the public," he said.
Neuhausen said he became interested in the possibility of electing a superintendent during former superintendent Wayne Alexander's tenure, which ended about 10 months early and was at times contentious.
Believing Alexander to be arrogant and without a long-term plan for the district, Neuhausen said voters would have done a better job of vetting him properly.
"We're going to find out more about this person and what his or her long-term plan is if they were elected rather than if they were appointed," he said.
While Neuhausen admits that with an elected official the position would become more political, he said "the pluses of properly vetting a candidate would far outweigh someone appointing."
But the same accountability argument can be made for the other side.
"I think there's greater accountability to the community with an appointed superintendent," said superintendent Bryan Blavatt, who plans to retire when his contract ends in June 2013.
His reasoning? An appointed superintendent is in direct contact with the board holding his or her contract and can be removed.
"Florida is the only state now that retains the large number of elected superintendents," he said. "Appointed superintendents represent professionals in the field, and they can be vetted by the field to determine their qualifications and their abilities."
Superintendents in only 23 of Florida's 67 counties are currently appointed.
The Hernando school system has had its current system since 1992, when voters narrowly approved changing the way the county's top education official is hired. The issue has cropped up from time to time since then, but has never made it to the ballot.
The idea has yet to gain much traction, but it has people talking and thinking about the numerous advantages and disadvantages of each method.
To make the change, Neuhausen said a majority of board members would have to approve the measure, then send it to voters for a final decision.
If elected to the School Board, Neuhausen said, he would "apply pressure to the rest of the board members" to support a move to an elected superintendent.
School Board Chairwoman Cynthia Moore, who has been with the district as a teacher under both elected and appointed superintendents, said there are positive aspects about both.
She said elected superintendents are forced to try and please the public, but are less responsive to what board members think.
"At one time, I was totally for the elected," she said, noting that she was no longer certain. "Which one would I rather work under, I'm not sure."
Board Vice Chairman Matthew Foreman is in the appointed superintendent camp.
"Personally, I believe that an elected superintendent is bad for kids," he said. "I believe a superintendent needs to be free from political pressure because the superintendent has to make hard decisions for the benefit of that organization. We already have an elected board whose job it is to oversee that superintendent."
The Hernando Classroom Teachers Association has not decided one way or another, but president Joe Vitalo said the group was "receptive" to a switch to an elected superintendent.
Appointing a superintendent means more external candidates, who are more expensive and require a greater learning curve, he said.
He pointed to Pasco, Sumter and Citrus counties as places where elected superintendents seem to work well.
"They're all doing okay or doing better than us," he said.

Internet Explorer description
The world�s most popular web browser is better and safer than ever, which you will see in just a few clicks
Internet Explorer 7 is a useful program that includes advancements in security and browsing experience for end users, functionality and compatibility for developers, and manageability for corporate network administrators.
Here are some key features of "Internet Explorer 7":
ActiveX Opt-in
· Disables nearly all pre-installed ActiveX controls to prevent potentially vulnerable controls from being exposed to attack. You can easily enable or disable ActiveX controls as needed through the Information Bar and the Add-on Manager.
Simplified User Experience
· The Internet Explorer 7 frame is reorganized to make it noticeably simpler, more streamlined, and less cluttered with unnecessary items. This maximizes the area of the screen devoted to the webpages that you want to see and makes performing the most common browsing tasks easy.
CSS Improvements
· Addresses many of the major inconsistencies that can cause web developers problems when producing visually rich, interactive webpages. Improved support for CSS2.1, including selectors and fixed positioning, allow web developers to create more powerful effects without the use of script.
Security Status Bar
· Enhances awareness of website security and privacy settings by displaying color-coded notifications next to the address bar. Internet Explorer 7 changes the Address Bar green for websites bearing new High Assurance certificates, indicating the site owner has completed extensive identity verification checks. Phishing Filter notifications, certificate names, and the gold padlock icon are now also adjacent to the address bar for better visibility. Certificate and privacy detail information can easily be displayed with a single click on the Security Status Bar.
Advanced Printing
· Automatically scales a printed webpage so that it's not wider than the paper it will be printed on. Internet Explorer 7 also includes a multi-page print preview with live margins, resizing text to avoid document clipping, and an option to print only selected text.
Application Compatibility Toolkit
· An application compatibility kit will be available for Internet Explorer 7, allowing IT pros and developers to understand any incompatibilities with their existing websites, applications, and deployments.
Phishing Filter
· Proactively warns and helps protect you against potential or known fraudulent sites and blocks the site if appropriate. The opt-in filter is updated several times per hour using the latest security information from Microsoft and several industry partners about fraudulent websites.
Toolbar Search Box
· Web searches using your favorite search provider can now be entered into a search box within the toolbar, eliminating the clutter of separate toolbars. You can easily choose a provider from the dropdown list or add more providers.
Alpha Channel in PNG
· Supports transparency within the PNG image format, resulting in better-looking websites that are simpler to build.
Cross-Domain Barriers
· Limits script on webpages from interacting with content from other domains or windows. This enhanced safeguard will further protect against malware by limiting the potential for malicious websites to manipulate flaws in other websites or cause you to download undesired content or software.
Favorites Center
· Offers easy and fast access to Favorites, Tab Groups, Browsing History, and RSS Feed subscriptions. Expands out when needed, and can be pinned in place for even easier access.
Group Policy Improvements
· Provides support for all aspects of Internet Explorer settings through Group Policy, greatly easing management across an enterprise.
Delete Browsing History
· Allows you to clean up cached pages, passwords, form data, cookies, and history, all from a single window.
RSS Feeds
· Automatically detects RSS feeds on sites by illuminating an icon on the toolbar. A single click on the icon allows you to preview and optionally subscribe to the site's RSS feed, and then be automatically notified as content is updated. Read RSS feeds directly in the browser, scan for important stories, and filter your view with search terms or site-specific categories.
Internet Explorer Administration Kit
· OEMs and deployment specialists can pre-package Internet Explorer with customized settings or additional programs for their users.
Address Bar Protection
· Every window, regardless of whether it's a pop-up or standard window, will present an address bar to the user, helping to block malicious sites from emulating trusted sites.

That Touch of Mink is a 1962 American Eastmancolor romantic comedy film directed by Delbert Mann starring Cary Grant, Doris Day, Gig Young and Audrey Meadows.
Cathy Timberlake, a New York City career woman, meets Philip Shayne. His Rolls Royce splashes her dress with mud while she is on her way to a job interview.
Philip wants an affair, while Cathy is holding out for marriage. Watching from the sidelines are Philip's financial manager, Roger, who sees a therapist because he feels guilty about helping his boss with his numerous conquests, and Cathy's roommate, Connie Emerson, who knows what Philip is after.
Philip wines and dines Cathy. He takes her to see the New York Yankees play. They watch from the Yankees dugout (he owns part of the team). Cathy's complaints about the umpire while seated alongside Mickey Mantle, Roger Maris and Yogi Berra (playing themselves), cause Art Passarella to throw all of them out of the game.
Philip's conscience weighs on him, so he withdraws an invitation to Bermuda, which only serves to make Cathy agree to go. While in Bermuda, Cathy comes down with a nervous rash, much to her embarrassment and his frustration.
The Bermuda trip is repeated, but this time Cathy drinks to soothe her nerves and ends up drunk. While intoxicated, Cathy falls off the balcony onto an awning below. She is then carried in her pajamas through the crowded hotel lobby.
At the urging of Roger and Connie who are convinced that Philip is in love with her, Cathy goes on a date with Beasley, whom she dislikes, to make Philip jealous. Her plan succeeds and she and Philip get married. On their honeymoon, he breaks out in a rash.

Box office performance[edit]
The film grossed $17,648,927 at the box office,[1] earning $8.5 million in US theatrical rentals.[2] It was the 4th highest grossing film of 1962.
Awards and honors[edit]
- Nominated for three Academy Awards: Best Art Direction (Alexander Golitzen, Robert Clatworthy, George Milo), Best Sound (Waldon O. Watson) & Best Writing, Story and Screenplay — Written Directly for the Screen (Stanley Shapiro, Nate Monaster).[3][4]
- Won the Golden Globe for Best Comedy Picture and Cary Grant was nominated for Best Motion Picture Actor — Musical/Comedy.
- Won the Golden Laurel for Top Comedy, while Doris Day won for Top Female Comedy Performance, Cary Grant for Top Male Comedy Performance and Gig Young for Top Male Supporting Performance.
- Won the Writers Guild of America Award for Best Written American Comedy.
Also, the film is recognized by American Film Institute in these lists:
- 2002: AFI's 100 Years...100 Passions – Nominated[5]
Production notes[edit]
- Cary Grant was a big fan of The Honeymooners and Audrey Meadows in particular, and was responsible for getting her the part of Connie.
- In her autobiography, Doris Day wrote that Cary Grant was very professional and exacting with details, helping her with her wardrobe choices for the film and decorating the library set with his own books from home. However, he was a completely private person, totally reserved, and very distant. Their relationship on this film was amicable but totally devoid of give-and-take.
- When Roger (Gig Young) is showing Cathy (Doris Day) the list of potential husbands for her, we learn that one of the names on the list is Rock Hudson, Day's co-star in Pillow Talk, Lover Come Back, and Send Me No Flowers. In fact, Rock Hudson had expected to be cast as Philip, but director Delbert Mann wanted Cary Grant. Grant hated the finished film.

My name is Caco. It means thief in Spanish. I am a ferret. The first three years of my life have been difficult and lonely. Once I thought of warm, snuggly blankets, fun toys and loving touches, but those thoughts are long since gone. I have been kept outside in the cold, forgotten for the most part. I don't know what I did wrong. I have lost my ears and back toes to the frost, and my front teeth to abuse. I have been passed on to strangers, like hand-me-down clothes, more times than I can count. Each time, I don't know what I've done wrong. I have abandoned hope and exist because I have to.
My latest home is a rescue shelter. The people here are kind, but I am one of many.
Someone has come to see me. A young couple with their three ferret children. The woman holds me close and whispers to me. Strangely, I feel comforted. I don't understand the movements of the ferret children. They seem bouncy and carefree. Perhaps this is happiness.
They take me to a new home and put me in warm blankets. I try to hide, alone, but am gently put back among the other ferrets each time. It feels warm and safe. I am often held close and softly spoken to. I wonder if I dare let myself feel something.
It has been two weeks since I was brought to my new home, and I am being taken to another rescue shelter. I thought the couple and their ferret children liked me. What did I do wrong? The woman is holding me close and whispering to me. I lie very still against her chest, listening to her heartbeat, memorizing each pulse. I pray with all my might that she will not leave me. I was starting to love my new family. She hands me over to the shelter owner and walks away. My heart breaks. No one wants me.
I lie despondent in my cage until I am taken to a place where my broken teeth are taken out. Now I am sad and hurting. Back in the cage, I cannot imagine my life getting any worse.
In my misery, I am picked up and wrapped tightly in a blanket. New hands take me, and I am pressed gently to someone's chest. I hear the heartbeat and recognize the sound. I dare look up and find myself staring into the loving eyes of the woman again. She has come back for me! My heart fills with joy, and I snuggle against her to show her my happiness. Someone wants me!
My name is now Grayson. The woman I know as Mom named me after the song Amazing Grace. I was told it was a fitting tribute to my life: "I once was lost, but now I'm found …"
I am truly a ferret. I live in a comfortable home with my mom, my dad and my ferret brothers and sister. I am still learning how to be carefree and play. These actions are foreign to me, and I don't know if I will ever fully understand them, but I am working on it. My favorite moment of the day, by far, is the time that Mom and Dad sit and snuggle with me. I can do that for hours!
I have found hope and it consists of plenty of warm, snuggly blankets, fun toys and loving touches.
It is called home.

Rarely do we write about specific investments in this blog, however, a recent post by Wellington Financial about one of our private investments caught our attention and we thought to share it with our readers.
Vision Critical's $10.5M secondary clears the deck for potential IPO.
Vision Critical is a fast-growing Canadian tech company that has become a major player in global market research solutions. The company was founded in 2000 by noted entrepreneur, Dr. Angus Reid (former founder of Angus Reid Group, Canada's largest research and polling group) and his son, Andrew Reid.
We helped the company raise equity in its early stages through two financings, one in 2008 and a subsequent round in 2010 and we invested on behalf of our clients through the Newport Global Equity Fund. It has been an interesting story to follow – from its relative obscurity in the early stages to its emergence as one of the fastest growing tech companies in North America with a revenue base approaching $100 million from a global client base of more than 600 organizations including a third of the top 100 brands worldwide.
Not surprisingly, as the Wellington Financial piece points out, Vision Critical has captured the attention of investment bankers on both sides of the border and is closely followed for signals of an IPO in the next year or two. We'll leave those decisions to the company's capable management but our shareholders can feel pleased at the progress to date, with a significant share price increase since the initial round of financing and a proven research platform with global stature. Like Wellington Financial, who are the company's lenders, we're proud to be backing a great team.

Hold on to your hat (or not): evangelicals are debating whether God knows everything.
Unfortunately, they're not asking how mere human minds might discover how much is in the divine mind.
Presenters at the 53rd annual conference of the Evangelical Theological Society in Colorado Springs, Colo., Nov. 14-16 will debate "open theism" - the idea that God's plans are a work in progress that depends on how humans act.
Several papers will object that open theism calls into question the conventional wisdom that God is "omniscient," knowing everything.
"Omniscience" isn't a Bible word, but a deduction held dear by Christian orthodoxy for centuries.
Actually, Jesus openly admitted that he didn't know when the end of the world would come, although plenty of his followers have since then offered to make up for his lack of knowledge on the subject.
Clark Pinnock, a Southern Baptist who formerly held to the traditional view, recently reversed his position in his book "Most Moved Mover: A Theology of God's Openness."
A number of papers at the ETS meeting will criticize Pinnock's latest book and the idea that God may not know every detail in the future.
Missing in the debate is the admission that it takes colossal conceit to say what God does or doesn't know, beyond what's revealed in Scripture. I picture the prophet Isaiah, who said that God's thoughts are not our thoughts, nor his ways our ways, laughing as modern theologians stroke their beards in deep thought, then issue pronouncements that detail for us exactly what God knows or doesn't know.
This hubris can be traced back at least to the fifth century, when the great theologian Augustine ventured a possible solution to an insoluble problem, then admitted that he said something only to avoid having to say nothing.
Why not say nothing, when there's nothing to say?
Although some may fear that people won't respect theologians if they don't have a sage proclamation on every issue, I suspect that they would actually be taken more seriously if they would admit a reverent agnosticism on tough issues.
Former ETS president Vernon Grounds, when asked to describe his religious position, used to say, "I'm a chastened evangelical."
For me, some such statement admitting the distance between God and persons is more winsome than entering areas in which even angels fear to tread.
Our natural desire for answers taps into the Western mentality of wanting to clear up all questions.
We have trouble with what C.S. Lewis described as the "thick" or mysteriously dense aspect of God.
In contrast, the Eastern (and biblical) mentality is that "the secret things belong to God," and that "God is in heaven, thou upon the earth; therefore let thy words be few."
But, of course, taking such limitations seriously would seriously reduce the number of dissertations written, seminary professors who assign them . . . and papers read at theological conferences.
Ron Durham, a former Panhandle resident now living in San Angelo, is a former minister and former religion writer for the Houston Post. He has a doctorate in religious studies from Rice University.

So, now that your good wife is up to speed, and hasn't spun out on you, I think if possible you could get the two dialogues together on this.( A "trialogue") .....It should be possible since the two ladies are friends, and then all cards will be on the table out in the light so to speak. From what there is to see in this thread it appears that you guys may be whole enough to sort through this yourselves, thus avoiding having to reshape advice given with someone elses moral and ethical paradigm.
"Continue being a man and you will be excellent. Pussy will rain from the sky. " - Legbiter
Couldn't resist immortalizing this quote.
and what you're about to do, is the dumbest thing any man in a longtime marriage could do, is trade 80 to get 20, or more to get even less. No one could stay in a committed marriage for 24 years without getting at least 80% of what they need from a partner to be happy with them. Hell, she might be coming up with 90 - 95% from what you describe. What you're fixated on is the missing percentage. Suppose OW is all of the missing 20%? How much of the other 80% does she have? If you leave DW will you ever be that close again to having the 80% you have now? It's why the second marriage is more likely to end in divorce than the first. Trading 80 to get 20. Just steeeeewpid!

"men are made to be promiscuous and women aren't"
A little off topic but this makes no sense - if the men are promiscuous and the women aren't - who the heck are the men boinking - each other?
I have seen many studies in the past that say men on average have x number of partners but the women have only x-y number of sexual partners. This does not add up. First of all there are roughly equal numbers of men and women - so put 50 men and 50 women in a commune - at the end of ten years - on average they will have to have equal number of opposite sex partners - it is simple math. There are two comments on this 1) a survey won't show this - men brag and women minimize. 2) Likely to do with upbringing about 'women shouldn't'. I have met more promiscuous women than men. In my married years I have had several women discuss with me that they are bored and looking for 'something". I have yet to have a conversation with a man about him going looking.
Sorry - back to your regularily scheduled programming.
@pace2race- the OP has stated he has no intention of wrecking his marriage, you've read this thread through your own lens.
@twa2w- if the women are getting more than the men, you can easily have 20 happy bonking women and 60 happy bonking men...your math-fu is weak
"Continue being a man and you will be excellent. Pussy will rain from the sky. " - Legbiter
Couldn't resist immortalizing this quote.
Lordy be Lord Pistacchio - that is one hell of a journal to wade through, and this old Gwamma was there for you man, then I wasn't , then I thought - oh I am so falling in love with this man - then I wasn't and then this comment....
Screwing really conjures up negetive thoughts in this old Gwammas mind
Just thinking on paper !!!! but if I ever heard my husband tell his mates that ...oh yeah last night we had a screw...... I would possibly emasculate him !!!!
"never let the truth get in the way of a good story "
...small steps....
I can't go there.
Secondly, under the circumstances described, screwing is exactly what it would be, no matter how hard I tried to convince myself otherwise.
Finally, I think we can all agree that my wife is a beautiful person deserving of the highest respect. But privately, when she asks me to f*ck her senseless on top of the clothes drier, that's what she gets. And that's what we both call it. Is it not supposed to be fun anymore?

"Owning it" is a call to own ourselves as practicioners of theory, and to understand theory not as an external, static edifice but rather as a shifting ground constituted by our collective, everyday theoretical practices.
This conference invites papers that explore those practices; that examine the role of graduate students as producers and consumers of theory; that initiate dialogue between different orientations toward theory; that imagine new directions for literary theory, and that ask what it means to practice theory is what has been labeled a "post-theoretical" academic landscape. It is also a chance to investigate the political ramifications of theoretical work, including inviting speculations on the causes and consequences of the on-going backlash to theory. We encourage submissions that take strong positions on these issues, as well as papers that comment on methodological practices in a more reflective mode.
Topics may include, but are not limited to, the following:

I agree that there's no intrinsic barrier to REST working with component frameworks. The problem I see is choosing where to put something that looks like an API. Should that be on the server, or in the client, as access to a messaging system? I have no problem with developers thinking in components, but don't really want their extra junk (and hideous unqualified namespace practice) in my XML. In general, I think you're on the right track here. Unfortunately, I think a lot of vendors are on the other track, have been for a while, and show few signs of crossing over. I don't really know what to do about that - if we do in fact wind up with "one degree of separation", a lot of programmers are going to be stuck doing ugly work for a long time. -- Simon St.Laurent Ring around the content, a pocket full of brackets Errors, errors, all fall down! http://simonstl.com

Detective Special blued from early 80's.
I rate her at 95%. No original box or papers.

No factory repair support, parts only available from parts companies and lack of gunsmiths trained to work on Colt D.A. revolvers make this gun safe queen with occasional outings.

I think I'd pay quite a bit more than $300.
Probably closer to $500.
I'd bet you could even get $600 for it.
October 22, 2013, 02:32 PM
Probably closer to $500.
I'd bet you could even get $600 for it.
My thoughts exactly. I'd go $450 on it, and I'm not even a Colt guy. $500 to $550 would probably be about right depending on which part of the country you're in.
October 22, 2013, 02:37 PM
October 22, 2013, 03:10 PM
Its a snubby so in my area that brings a premium price. Assuming its truly a 95% gun it would sell for around $600.
October 22, 2013, 05:23 PM
October 22, 2013, 06:10 PM
Colt revolvers go for quite a bit these days. The low balls are generally guys who don't shoot Colts. Yet there are tremendous numbers out there who seem to be able to shoot one and not have it fall apart.
Interestingly, I've seen it more and more that folks don't think that a pistol not in current production should ever be used or shot. Ditto for shotguns. With that thought, I suppose I should forget using my Trooper Mk III .22lr, or my Ruger Police Service Six, or my ITM AT-84, or my Ruger Mk II, or my Springfield P9.
October 22, 2013, 08:08 PM
That is the premium carry gun there... really nice condition but not perfect. I have a 1977 mfgr DS that I carry almost everyday.... had it almost 6yrs now. Shoot a couple boxes of ammo thru it a few times a year to keep my skills with it up to par.
I'd go $450-$500 on it.
I have few Smith J Frames as well but prefer to carry the COLT. Fears of breaking them is IMO overblown. They are well made from the best materials. By the time you wear one out, you would have spent way more than $500 on ammo. I carry and shoot mine as intended.
October 22, 2013, 08:23 PM
October 22, 2013, 08:35 PM
My best and final offer in my area of NE Ohio would be Ten Bucks, a Bottle of Wine and a Hooker.
Seriously, if the action is tight and the revolver is as clean as it looks I would have no reservations offering $500 for the gun. With original box it would be a $600 revolver around here.
October 22, 2013, 08:59 PM
The actual worth is $425+/-25. I would much rather own S&W Model 12 largely because parent company still makes revolvers meaning common spare parts are readily available when needed. Another huge advantage of owning a S&W is I can fix most problems myself w/o resorting to service of gun smith.
Take plate off each and superiority of Smith will be readily discernible even to non-revolver guy like myself.
October 22, 2013, 10:05 PM
$450 tops.
October 22, 2013, 10:07 PM
Hey, you asked what I would give for it. I'm not a revolver guy. :)
October 22, 2013, 10:38 PM
Beware of the posts with high prices. They are spending your money not theirs. :rolleyes:
October 22, 2013, 10:46 PM
Do a Gunbroker search of completed auctions and see what guns like it actually sell for. That is a fair barometer of what the market says they are worth.. I would guess my $450 is low.
October 23, 2013, 12:23 AM
I'm not in a position to comment on the DS. However, I have a nice Official Police. Took it out one day and shot it a while, cleaned it, and put it back in the safe. When I want to shoot a .38 I grab one of my M10's. The Colt is a really nicely built gun but it doesn't "feel" right to me.
October 23, 2013, 05:31 AM
This thread brings to my my general answer when someone ask me what a gun is worth. Any gun on any given day is worth what someone is willing to pay for it, no more and no less. :)
October 23, 2013, 06:11 AM
Okay, I'll talk my money. I bought a Model 10 a week ago for $275 ($299 OTD). This week, I paid $500 for a Trooper Mk V. I am seriously considering $595 for a new condition blued Mk III.
I have Smiths, Rugers, a Taurus, a Hopkins and Allen, even two Nagants, in addition to my Colts. My great-great grandfather and his son favored Colts (the former carried an 1849 Pocket Pistol at the Battle of Atlanta while the latter used the same revolver for Turkey hunting). My grandfather favored the S&W Model 10. Me? I prefer my Ruger for mud and gunk work but prefer the Mk III I have for the Farm. The Model 10 is a nice, quaint revolver I bought for fun and because it's cheap.
The Colt lock work is definitely more of a challenge than the Smith, which is harder than the Ruger. Ruger lockwork is the easiest to work with in my experience. But, I have yet to have a problem with a Colt and other than than that 1849, my oldest Colt is a New Service that still works great (it was Dad's). If a 100 year old revolver is still trucking along and my Troopers are considered stronger and easier to work on, then I think I'm in fine shape.
I can say without hesitation that the best triggers are on my Colts. The worst is on my Ruger. Even so, they are all better than the double action on any automatic I own save for an ASAI One Pro.
October 23, 2013, 06:32 AM
For the Detective Special in that condition I would say $450 to $500 would be a decent price range.
October 23, 2013, 05:19 PM
No factory repair support, parts only available from parts companies and lack of gunsmiths trained to work on Colt D.A. revolvers make this gun safe queen with occasional outings.
I think that's an internet myth, Colt works on Pythons, I don't see any reason why they wouldn't handle a DS. Colt also has some parts for these revolvers, and if they don't have the parts can direct you to who does have them. A quick search on GB doesn't show any going for only $300.
October 23, 2013, 05:24 PM
I sold my 1970 DS for $350 a couple of years ago. I liked it quite well, but prefer S&W for carry and regular shooting, and *needed* the money to fund another project.
I would buy another one.
October 24, 2013, 04:32 PM
I would guess $450-$500 as a typical price for one in 95% condition. That one looks better. So, price would likely be in the $550 area.
October 24, 2013, 09:05 PM
I would much rather own S&W Model 12
A model 12 doesn't fit in the pockets a standard pair of jeans very well if at all.
A model 12, being a K/KA frame is a mid size frame gun where as a Colt D frame is a small frame gun.
I've owned and shot both extensively. The 12 is a belt gun, the DS is a pocket gun. Different animals IMO.
Take plate off each and superiority of Smith will be readily discernible even to non-revolver guy like myself.
..... oy. :scrutiny:
October 25, 2013, 07:23 AM
$400-$500 would be about right. I bought a SF-IV which was essentially the transition between the DS and the DS II for around $600 with the box and paper work this spring.
October 25, 2013, 08:12 AM
I paid $360 for the nickle version of this critter about 5 yrs. ago in about the same condition. Three yrs. ago I paid $300 for a blued version with a bobbed hammer. I would say in the $350-$450 range in my area currently.
October 25, 2013, 02:56 PM
Completed auctions (where they have sold) on Gun Broker, they are bringing $600 +- in that condition.
I had one stolen earlier in the year in similar condition. Mine was 98%+ on finish. My insurance paid me $725. Being no longer in production and a set of custom wood grips brought it up some.
October 25, 2013, 04:30 PM
If made in 1947 to 72 275.00 1973 TO 86 90% 300.00 == 1993 to 1995 90% 300.00 THIS IS THE FOURTH ISSUE THIS IS FROM MY OLD BLUE BOOK
October 25, 2013, 06:16 PM
I recently picked up its brother, slightly darker grips and beautiful original blue for $450 OTD, it was marked $550 at a consignment shop for a month.
Great little snubbie, please let us know if you get it.
October 25, 2013, 06:26 PM
As described, the Colt DS would fetch at least $550.00 or so, in my neck of the woods.
I've owned and shot both extensively. The 12 is a belt gun, the DS is a pocket gun. Different animals IMO.
I, too, own both (actually, my Colt is the lighter Cobra version of the DS) and I agree with savit260's sentiiments: the Model 12 belongs on a belt and the littler Colt is well suited for a pocket.
October 25, 2013, 06:27 PM
If made in 1947 to 72 275.00 1973 TO 86 90% 300.00 == 1993 to 1995 90% 300.00 THIS IS THE FOURTH ISSUE THIS IS FROM MY OLD BLUE BOOK
Blue Book means very little on many guns, especially out of production models.
October 25, 2013, 06:33 PM
Here that would sell for $500.
It would absolutely sell FAST for $400.
October 25, 2013, 07:32 PM
There is no superiority of the S&W lockwork. Only difference.
They are two different guns, of two different designs, from two different makers.
IIRC, Colt still services the DS.
A Commando Special (DS with factory rubber grips and parkerized finish), just sold for $2,171.00 on GB.
P5 Guy
October 26, 2013, 02:24 PM
Around $400 but not too much more. The only advantage over a modern S&W is one more round and no 'safety lock'.
Plus a S&W of the right model will shoot 357MAG, so will a SP101.
Some collect guns for prestige, some buy tools, I'm the latter.
October 26, 2013, 06:57 PM
The only advantage over a modern S&W is one more round and no 'safety lock'.
You're forgetting that the Colt is a flat V spring type action, which will likely have a smother feeling trigger than the coil sprung J frames or Ruger sp. (both excellent guns in their own rights)

2005 Chevrolet Cobalt SS Supercharged SS Supercharged 2dr Coupe (2.0L 4cyl S/C 5M)
I dont know what the hell you people are talking about, i guess u dont know how to take care of a car. MY COBALT was bought in july 2005, only issue i ever had with it was my 2 gear, gearbox, BECAUSE i was petal to the metal, of course it was under warranty at the time and was fix beautiful. another thing, nothing big was the molding around the sunroof button, came off when racing a crxgsr turbo LOL, was fix and never came off. Thats About it RIGHT NOW i got 140k miles on it and it runs PerfecT! I sugguest u people learn how to warm up ur car and maintain it well. sounds to me u are a bunch of retards. BTW this is GM expect Speed not Need lmao. GREAT car its Paid Off And WIll be kept!!
LOVE the power it came with, When i first came out in the road everyone wanna a piece of the Cobalt. You will get Many looks, especially if u can hook up the car like i did. THe insdie two tune leather is AWESUME, my is rally yellow so inside i had Blk N Yellow hah. The spoiler is awesume as well, comes with a boost gauge, nice body style
Spoiler view not as great, its GM, they need to improve in the interior dept but they did a good job in this car.
First off let me say that I have owned alot of cars like these, low end to mid range performance cars. Second off almost all these cars were forced induction cars. I bought this car with 60k miles on it, it currently has 91k on it. I have had it two years and Ive had to replace the transmission, clutch 2x, alternator, battery, plugs 3x, front ball joints. The car is always down during the time ive owned it, it has not run more than 90 days at any given time. The engine and trans are all saab and terribly designed and horrible to work on. the entire car was hastily manufactured with mediocre materials. the fit and finish of the entire are is horrible. 93 oct gas and full syn oil, why?terrible
I was like others & waited patiently for the dealership to get one of these cars in. This was the car I wanted to own!! I loved everything about this car until it hit 13k miles, the engine light continued to come on & off until I traded it a couple of weeks ago with 97k miles. It was a sad day because I had finally got all the kinks out of the car, but I was worried about the supercharger going next. No telling how much that was going to set me back. I thought just because this was a 4 cylinder car that it would be cheap to maintain, but I was wrong. Premium gas only & oil changes are anywhere from $75 - $85 a pop, synthetic oil only. The boost gauge also went out around 20k miles.
Hot, sexy, fast car!!! When you need to pass someone, you can in 5th gear & only apply a little pressure to the gas. This car is a silent predator :)
I have no other improvements other than to find out why the engine light constantly stays on, why your brake light will flash as you are going down the road, the weird knocking that comes from the back side panel of the passenger side & take the silver plates on the doors & replace them with black.
I have had the most trouble with this car, i bought it with 2k miles. Then everything started going wrong. The windows motors stopped at 3k. The steering column had locked up and needed to be replaced, at 12k. At 24k miles, a horrible knocking sound started up, the dealership, said the 2 front struts were faulty, the manifold had a leak in it and needed to be replaced, and the wheel bearings in the front dif were faulty, and of course the supercharger was faulty and was replaced. Cant forget the boost gauge meter went out and needed to be replaced at 8k miles. And now the big pool of water that comes from the leaking ac unit, this is my new fun thing to get fixed, but now its out of warranty
The sound system is nice for sure, the leather isn't the best but looks really nice. I honestly like the car, it is fun to drive, nice and fast, but im not much of the speeder type, so really its more trouble then its worth.
Make a better parts for the car!!! the lighting is crap wont be finding anything in the backseat at night. The rotors are crap, worthless at 8k miles, warped and torn up.
I loved this car when I first got it 5 yrs. Ago. Now I hate it the sunroof is messing up. I have had to replace 2nd gear already and that was at 50,000 miles. Now the transmission is going out and that is at 52,284 miles. Also my abs light is coming on and a mechanic informed me that it was my body control module, and there are 17 bcm's on the car. The speakers have static. The glove box makes a noise. Also something in the door rattles. Plus to top it off it has a Saab transmission so you can no longer get parts without a huge hassle. It took me 3 weeks to get parts and that was before gm did away with Saab. Do not buy this car!
The power

LAHAINA - In a game that arrives a week earlier than many folks thought it should, the top-seeded Lahainaluna High School football team knows it will have its hands full when it meets fourth-seeded Kaiser on Saturday at 6 p.m. at War Memorial Stadium in the First Hawaiian Bank Division II state semifinals.
"They are big, strong, fast," Lahainaluna co-head coach Garret Tihada said of the 11-1 Cougars, who outscored 10 opponents 496-104 and had two forfeit wins. "They are the real deal. It is hard to find a weakness in them right now. They have just been killing everybody, which just shows what kind of good team they are. . . . We haven't faced anybody like Kaiser."
Lahainaluna seniors Bronson Kaina, a 5-foot-7, 210-pound linebacker, and Kiko Kohler-Fonohema, a 6-0, 195-pound safety, will be used on both sides of the ball.

Defense, however, will be the focus for both.
The Cougars are coming off a 59-6 win over Konawaena in last week's quarterfinals. They feature fullback Fitou Fisiiahi, who has rushed for 688 yards this season, and tailback Thomas Boutenbah-Leong, who has 650 yards on the ground. Each has 16 rushing touchdowns.
"Just going over film, just play assignment football," Kaina said before Tuesday's practice. "They have got two big running backs, but some running backs have got to have weaknesses, too. Everybody has weaknesses. We just have to do disciplined tackling, gang tackling, make sure everyone meets at the ball, be there as a team."

First Hawaiian Bank
State Football Championships
At Aloha Stadium
No. 2 Mililani vs. Campbell, 4:30 p.m.
No. 1 Punahou vs. Farrington, 7:30 p.m.
Saturday, Nov. 23
Mililani-Campbell winner vs. Punahou-Farrington winner, 7 p.m.
No. 3 Kauai at No. 2 Iolani, 2 p.m.
No. 1 Lahainaluna vs. No. 4 Kaiser at War Memorial Stadium, 6 p.m.
Saturday, Nov. 23
Kauai-Iolani winner vs. Lahainaluna-Kaiser winner at Aloha Stadium, 4 p.m.
Kaiser has won 11 in a row after a 21-7 season-opening loss to Campbell, which will play in the D-I final four on Friday. Lahainaluna is 10-0 for the first time in school history and outscored Maui Interscholastic League opponents 336-44.
The Lunas' defense, which gave up just 130.4 yards per game against the MIL, has had numerous opportunities to practice against its own offense in preparation for the Cougars' rushing attack.
Of Lahainaluna's 3,197 yards of offense in MIL play, 86.1 percent has come on the ground. Jared Rocha-Islas led the league with 814 yards and 12 touchdowns while averaging 12.7 yards per carry. Quarterback Makoa Filikitonga was third in the MIL with 789 yards rushing, eight touchdowns and 10.7 yards per carry. Christian Whitehead was fourth in the league with 553 yards and nine scores and a 6.8-yard average.
"Our offense, they come hard, they explode off the ball and coming against these linemen that we have is a good thing for me because seeing people who are large - the other linebackers, too, and even the DBs - coming against big guys is good because you have to do different things," Kaina said. "It has been good for us."
The Lunas haven't played since their 42-14 win over Maui High on Oct. 25.
"We just took these three weeks of preparation, did what the coaches said, they taught us a lot, we watched film on (Kaiser) - they look really good," Kohler-Fonohema said. "Both of their running backs are super-good athletes. One is pretty big (Fisiiahi is 6-0, 235), but we just have to do our jobs."
Tihada said it will be basics learned over the last year that will be key to slowing down the Cougars.
"Our defense is based on discipline, gang tackling, assignment football," he said. "If our kids do that well like they have been all year, we will be all right."
Even with an offense that averaged 399.6 yards per game, Kohler-Fonohema said, "We take a lot of pride (on defense). Our coaches teach us a lot and we don't want to let them down."
Kohler-Fonohema said this game should live up to the hype.
"We feel like this is the game of the year," he said. "They are a pretty good team, we match up evenly size-wise, speed-wise, player by player on both sides of the ball, so it is going to be a good game."
The winner of Saturday's game will face the Kauai-Iolani winner for the title at Aloha Stadium on Nov. 23.

7 of the Best Free Linux FTP Clients
File Transfer Protocol (FTP) is a popular and time-honored method of transferring files to and from a remote network site. FTP is built on a client-server architecture and uses separate control and data connections between the client and server applications. The FTP client connects to the FTP server, and enables the user to send and retrieves files from that server.
FTP is one of many different file transfer protocols that are used. Other examples include the Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP), BitTorrent, the SSH File Transfer Protocol (SFTP), and Secure Copy (SCP).
In recent years, FTP's popularity for general downloading files has declined. Linux distributions and software are now often downloaded by using direct downloads using a web browser, by BitTorrent, metalink, or by using a download utility such as Jigdo. FTP is often tucked away as a download option even if it is available. Whilst FTP can cause bandwidth problems it nevertheless remains a great way of moving large files.

Q: Is there anything I can "do" over a lateral (septic) field? A large section of my back yard is such, and I would like to be able to reclaim some of this lawn. If it matters, it has been in place and problem free for 12 years. I know I could do some container planting, but can I do anything more permanent? Could I put in gravel pathways? Raised beds, perhaps?
I take the headline for today's column from the 1963 movie of the same name. That movie, which I'm happy to recommend, featured a cast that was a virtual who's who of the stars of that day, including Spencer Tracy, Milton Berle, Ethel Merman, Sid Caesar, Buddy Hackett, Mickey Rooney and Jonathan Winters.
The plot involves the dying words of a thief, which spark a crazy, cross-country race to find a hidden treasure.
Shelby County High School senior Michaela Manley is the No. 1 player on the Rockets' girls golf team, which many believe will challenge for a state championship this fall. The team has competed in the state tournament that past two years. She talked to The Sentinel-News about her season and her career.
On season preparations:
Road projects continue
Construction delays are expected on Interstate 64 between the Jefferson/Shelby County line and the Simpsonville exit (mile points 23.2 to 28.1) because of roadway widening. Shutdowns of the eastbound and westbound lanes at Simpsonville for the demolition of the Buck Creek Road overpass were expected to end this morning.
Several other resurfacing projects are under way in Shelby County this week. The are:
LEXINGTON – Collins High School and North Hardin hooked up in an epic football battle that left many players out of breath at the conclusion of a 49-42 victory by the Titans Saturday night.
But their combined play left statistics-keepers exhausted as well.
LEXINGTON – Forget about frying an egg on a sidewalk.

If you're planning to head west of Shelbyville on Interstate 64 Monday or Tuesday nights, you might need to allow a little more time.
That shutdown of I-64 at the Simpsonville exit to allow the demolition of the Buck Creek Road (KY 1848) overpass, originally scheduled for tonight and Friday night, won't begin until 7 p.m. Monday.
The road to Jericho must run through Shelby County, and we aren't talking about that fishing hole near Smithfield.
We're talking about a higher road and what seems to be growing evidence that when anyone is stuck alongside one of our byways, injured, defeated and left to the fates of humankind, our residents step forward and tend to those needs in ways that transcend the beauty of simple giving.

Columbiana County officials are right to be upset about the Ohio Environmental Protection Agency's possible designation of the county as being in violation of air pollution standards.
The Ohio Environmental Protection Agency announced last summer the county was among seven in Ohio found to have sulfur dioxide (SO2) emissions in excess of the new maximum federal standard of 75 parts per billion an hour. The county's reading was 90, and the old standard was 140 ppb over 24 hours.
The problem is the county's only SO2 monitoring station is located in the East End of East Liverpool, which is in the extreme southeast corner of the county where Ohio borders Pennsylvania and West Virginia. It is also within a half-mile of Waste Technologies Industries' hazardous waste incinerator.
High SO2 levels are indeed a health concern. SO2 is produced primarily by motor vehicles, coal-fired electric plants and large industrial plants. SO2 is a key component of smog, soot and acid rain, and the pollutant is believed to contribute to respiratory ailments.
But, as county officials pointed out, a high SO2 designation could force local companies and businesses interested in moving here to undertake costly pollution control measures they view as unnecessarily burdensome and could change their mind about locating here. And the East End reading does not necessarily reflect the air quality of the entire county.
As Columbiana County Port Authority CEO Tracy Drake questioned, "How can all of Columbiana County come under a nonattainment designation under this methodology?"
And, knowing that our statistics are based on one precariously located monitoring station makes us question the validity of all Ohio EPA high level designations. Is every county in Ohio judged on the basis of one monitoring station and is the location of that station taken into consideration when measuring the air quality?
Heidi Griesmer of the OEPA, even confirmed that "it looks like most of the (East Liverpool) emissions are coming from Jefferson County." How is our county supposed to combat that?
County officials are protesting this possible designation, and we hope the EPA takes their concerns into consideration.
