PALM COAST, Fla. - Flagler County deputies and the Florida Department Law Enforcement arrested a Flagler County man Monday on charges relating to growing marijuana inside of a Palm Coast home.
Jorge Rodriguez, 61, of Wheatfield Drive in Palm Coast, was charged with cultivating marijuana. Rodriguez was arrested at his home at 5:30 p.m.
Initially, Rodriguez claimed to be 51-year-old Jose Soto. After being fingerprinted in the Flagler County Inmate Facility, Corrections Deputies discovered his true identity.
He remains in the custody of the Inmate Facility with bail set at $10,000. The federal Immigration Customs Enforcement agency also placed a hold on him.
The discovery of the illegal cultivation operation began when detectives received an anonymous complaint that the residence was being used to grow marijuana.
Deputies served a search warrant on the residence Monday and made the arrest. Arriving detectives discovered two active grow rooms in the residence containing a 48 plants. These plants, at full potential, have the ability to produce up to 96 pounds of marijuana for sale and distribution each year. This would yield a street value of $86,400. Deputies dismantled the grow equipment from the residence and removed the plants.
Deputies say upon further investigation, more charges are pending.

Some kids grow up collecting baseball cards.
Some coins and others video games.
Glade Gunther spent his family time as a youngster collecting fossils.
Some kids grow up collecting baseball cards.
Some coins and others video games.
Glade Gunther spent his family time as a youngster collecting fossils.
Not at a museum play pit. Not in a backyard sandbox but on remote public lands, often in uncomfortable conditions.
Gunther has unearthed ossified remains of ammonites, trilobites and other ancient invertebrates that ended up in museums, research facilities and classrooms across the world. Now he and other amateur collectors say their ability to contribute to knowledge of ancient life is jeopardized by the way public-land agencies are interpreting the 2009 Paleontological Resources Preservation Act.
The U.S. Forest Service is gathering public comments until Monday on proposed regulations that limit "casual collecting." The regs cover most fossils from dinosaurs to leaves found on federal lands. But it is restrictions on invertebrates, those spineless creatures that proliferated in Cambrian seas, that have amateurs crying foul.
The Forest Service rules would limit collectors' annual take to 25 pounds, or about what fits in a one-gallon bucket. In a calendar year, they could collect no more than five specimens of any one type of invertebrate. A fossil hunter could exhaust that limit before lunch, critics say.
"You can't get people interested in science if they can't go out and pick things up ... It is going to make a whole bunch of law-abiding citizens, myself included, criminals," Gunther said. "Bureaucrats sitting in a room who never collected a fossil in their lives write these rules."
Those bureaucrats are paleontologists Scott Foss, who is helping draft the Bureau of Land Management's fossil rules, and Mike Fracasso, of the Forest Service. Both have lots of field experience.
Foss agreed that amateurs in general and the Gunthers in particular have advanced invertebrate paleontology, but federal law mandates the agencies to "actively manage" fossil resources on public lands.
"That means they have to partner with us to continue. And we hope they do continue," said Foss, BLM's chief Utah paleontologist, who recently moved to Washington, D.C., to serve as senior national paleontologist.
"Amateurs have done an enormous contribution to the science, a lot more than the agency has done. There is not an intention to stop that."
The 2009 law requires the agencies to coordinate their regs and the BLM's are due out for public comment soon. Other federal land agencies, namely National Park Service, Bureau of Reclamation and Fish and Wildlife Service, do not allow collecting without a permit.
Fracasso was not available last week, and the Forest Service could not provide anyone else to comment.
As has been the case for years, collecting fossils of dinosaurs and other vertebrates, as well as rare invertebrates would still require a permit. But the proposed regs spell out new standards for these fossils' retention and use.
"The principal investigator has to be a qualified paleontologist and what gets collected has to go to an approved repository, i.e. a museum," Foss said, speaking for BLM. "They will have to either collect with restrictions or they will have to have a research plan and they can collect more, but they don't get to keep it."
The 2009 law says those collecting without a permit are limited to a "reasonable amount" of common fossils that can be gathered in ways that leave "negligible disturbance." The Forest Service's proposed rules define these terms as 25 pounds a year and "little or no change to the land surface."
Such limits would impede scientific discovery because few amateurs have the institutional backing to get a permit that would allow serious gathering, critics say.
"It basically ends what I have been doing for 55 years," said paleontologist Jim Jenks, of West Jordan, coauthor on more than two-dozen research papers on invertebrate fossils. "I would say a significant portion of the new material discovered and described is done by amateurs who then share the information with professionals."
Dick Robison, a professor emeritus at University of Kansas, backed Jenks and Gunther.
"I don't know where the 25 pounds came from. That thing is absolutely bizarre. It seems like government bureaucracy run amok," said Robison, an expert in invertebrate paleontology who taught at the University of Utah until 1974.
"I worked with the Gunthers since I arrived in Utah in mid-1960s. They have been phenomenal. These rules will put an end to that cooperation. It is completely unrealistic."
Led by the late Lloyd Gunther, Glade's grandfather who was known as the Trilobite King, the family has uncovered thousands of trilobites over four generations. Many specimens were unknown to science before they gave them to researchers, who, in turn, named new species after the family.
In 1984 the Gunthers were awarded the inaugural "Strimple Award," honoring achievement in paleontology by amateurs.
According to Foss, the 25-pound standard is modeled on long-standing rules for collecting petrified wood, but that limit is per day, not per year.
Gunther said a 25-pound daily limit would be acceptable, but he is more concerned about other restrictions.
"The real problem is five specimens a year. You can't pick up a piece of fossiliferous rock and not have more than five specimens on it. I have broken the law by picking up a rock," Gunther said. "The other issue is you can't use real tools. You can use a hammer and a chisel, but you can't dig a hole because that exceeds 'negligible disturbance.' What the heck is negligible disturbance?"
Pitch for new rules on fossil collecting
To comply with the 2009 Paleontological Resources Preservation Act, the U.S. Forest Service proposes limiting amateur fossil collectors to 25 pounds a year and no more than five specimens of any one type of invertebrate. The agency is accepting public comment until Monday. Email comments to firstname.lastname@example.com. The BLM will release its proposed rules soon.

An exciting project originating in the Worth Valley is among 47 schemes approved for the 100-day cultural festival leading up to the Grand Depart.
The successful commissions for Yorkshire Festival 2014 were officially revealed in Leeds yesterday.
Among them is Fields of Vision, a land art initiative building on an idea first put forward by the Worth Valley Young Farmers Club.
It will be delivered by a partnership co-ordinated by Pennine Prospects, and will include huge land art installations across the South Pennines, including locations in Hainworth, Stanbury and along the Keighley & Worth Valley Railway.
Local groups, schools and the wider community will be involved in sowing and cutting designs into a series of fields during the Spring.
Andrew Wood, of Worth Valley Young Farmers, paid tribute to the Worth the Tour group, The Sports Turf Research Institute and Pennine Prospects, which enabled him and his colleagues to progress their idea.
"It's quite a coup for us to have this chosen, when only 47 out of 400 submissions were selected," he said. "Millions of people all over the world will see these artworks.
"A lot of the art will be created through sowing, which will be done when the weather is good enough.
"Most of the designs haven't been created yet, but we've chosen sites where the art will be visible from ground level, as well as from the air. We want this to be for local people – not just for the TV cameras and helicopters.
Liz Barker, of Worth the Tour, a community group set up to co-ordinate local activities around Le Tour, said: "We're very proud and excited one of the great projects we're supporting has been selected as an official cultural festival event.
"We're now looking forward to helping bring the project to life. We know it's going to be a huge attraction."
Pennine Prospects chairman Pam Warhurst said: "This huge land-art project brings together artists, young farmers, cyclists and the community to sew and weave original designs into the stunning South Pennines landscape.
"The installations will grow and flourish during the festival to really put the South Pennines on the map during the Tour de France."
Yorkshire Festival 2014 is the world's first cultural festival to run alongside the build-up to the Tour de France.
The event begins on March 27, and is designed to promote the county's artistic heritage and landscapes. It is the brainchild of Welcome to Yorkshire, and has been backed by Yorkshire Water, Arts Council England and Yorkshire local authorities.

What's your toddler's personality type?
Knowing this could impact your parenting style more than you realise. more
"I call out to my kids but they never listen."
The frustration on this parent's face was clear. We were part-way through a recent parenting workshop I was running when the issue arose.
As the group discussed the challenge this parent was facing I asked, "When your children want your attention, what do you normally say or do?"
There was silence, then the lightbulb moment occurred. Eyes were wide, mouths dropped open...
"I say I'll be there in a minute, or hang on just a sec," said one parent.
"I usually just tell them to be patient," volunteered another.
"I get annoyed at them for interrupting and being inconvenient," was another response.
Heads were nodding around the room as mums and dads realised that when they wanted their child's attention, their kids were reacting exactly the way they had been taught to by them.
While the parents were making demands for action 'NOW!', their children were responding in the same way they had observed whenever they requested something of their parents.
Actions really do speak louder than words when it comes to parenting. Our children look at what we do, and they do it. For example:
"NO SHOUTING IN THIS HOUSE" will not teach our children to use quiet voices.
"Stop hitting your sister when you're angry" is not a command that will be followed by our children if it is accompanied by a parent slapping a child for hitting (or biting, or anything else physical).
Beyond example, are there any other ways that we can encourage our children to listen?

Esophageal Cancer
Stage IV Esophageal Cancer
My grandmother was diagnosed with Esophageal cancer in September 2009. It is February 2010 and the cancer has already spread to her liver. I was wondering what her life expectancy can be if the cancer is spreading this quickly.
Life expectancy can be very variable in this instance. The cancer is not curable at this stage, but potentially treatable if her oncologist determines she is a candidate for it.

Okay, so let's start with the Chipset update.
1) What exactly is that updating? It's not the BIOS, so then what is it/what does it do? I just noticed the "Intel" part of the description, so I'm guessing this has to do with how the mobo communicates/functions with the CPU?
2) Am I correct that I should be downloading "Version 126.96.36.1991"?
3) Presumably I just open/execute whatever the download is and let it do its thing?
Regarding WinXP and an old hard drive... I'm sure it exists... somewhere (maybe), but the short answer is essentially "no". I think if my copy still exists its buried somewhere in the basement (which, with my basement, means its basically unaccessible without a lot of work and searching).

Liberty Sea wrote:David Quinn wrote:If the Creator is the ALL, then he can't reside anywhere or in anything.
By 'residing in reality', I mean "has actual Being and not simply imaginary'.
So what if the Creator of the universe is not the All but still possessed consciousness?
What about a program designer who creates a simulated universe on a computer - would he deserve the status of "God"?
As soon as we conceive of a creator God, we are automatically conceiving of a being who is infinitely diminished in the face of the endlessness of the ALL.
Or, consider this: when there is the universe, this consciousness is not the All. But when the universe is gone, he would be the All. Or before the universe-as is, the total mass- was created by him, he was the All.
This sounds confusing to me. How can the ALL cease being the ALL, even when there is a universe?
As for the ALL having consciousness when there is a universe, that is exactly what happens already. The ALL becomes conscious through us, and through sentient beings like ourselves.
Liberty Sea wrote:David Quinn wrote:Well, it wouldn't have the faintest impact on my understanding of God, as I already fully understand the fundamental nature of God/the ALL. So if the scenario above came to pass, my natural response would be to consider this communicative being as some kind of human trick, or possibly an alien from another planet or dimension - or in other words, as just an other form within the ALL, which is all it can ever be.
1.But even if that Being is within the All, what is he was truly the creator of Earth, who created all lives out of nothingness with the power of his consciousness?
2. What is that Being truly has power over your destiny?
3. What if that Being has infinite force that can destroy the total mass in the universe in an instant?
It's irrelevant. While we might find this sort of scenario to be important from our perspective as egotistical beings on planet earth, it has no impact on the truth - namely, that a finite being, no matter how powerful, will always remain a finite being and inconsequential to the ALL.

NATHAN Cleverly has explained his reasons for moving to Matchroom Promotions, insisting it was time he did what was best for his career.
As revealed in Thursday's Argus Sport, Cleverly has made an agreement with promoter Eddie Hearn after spending his entire tenure as a professional with Frank Warren.
Warren insists he still has an agreement with Cleverly and Matchroom boss Hearn told Argus Sport yesterday that he "expected," that Warren will pursue the matter.
However, Cleverly is holding his head high and standing by his move.
"A lot of people will be surprised and shocked by my decision to join Matchroom but it's come over a long period of time, I've been thinking about things since August when I lost my world title," he said.
"I've had a good break, enjoyed a normal life for a bit, but there was going to come a point where I was going to get my head back on, back in the game and decide what route to take.
"I was out of contract with Frank Warren (Warren vehemently disputes this) and it was my decision.
"Do I stay or go with Eddie and Matchroom who made me an offer, an excellent offer with the fight in May in Cardiff? And that was appealing to me with Sky Sports as well, an excellent boxing broadcaster. It made sense to me, so here we are, ready to begin chapter two.
"I told Frank, I thought it was the right thing to do, I wanted to do things amicably and properly out of respect, because chapter one of my career was fantastic, I was living the dream and I stayed loyal to Frank Warren despite the problems the promotional company had.
"I stayed loyal through the mist of things but in the end I had to think of my career and what was best for me and I decided on this move and here we are, ready to go.
"As far as I'm concerned, I've done everything right. I am an honest guy. Whether the other party, whether they want to play ball or try and cause a bit of friction, that's up to them. I can hold my head up. I did everything right... but it's time for me to move on."
Hearn admits he expects to hear from Warren but adds that isn't unusual, the pair having disputed several Matchroom acquisitions in recent years, including Ricky Burns, George Groves, Tony Bellew, Kell Brook and now Cleverly.
"We expect something with him (Warren)," Hearn said, "but we get that every day. We take our advice, look at each individual case on its merits and we've spoken with both Nathan and his legal representative and we are comfortable.
"I am sure there will be some fall out but we move on and hopefully fighters are able to get on with their careers."
And Hearn also admitted he feels Cleverly could've been given better fights after defeating Bellew in 2012.
"In my opinion Nathan Cleverly fought, well, let me say, opponents that I wouldn't have matched him against," he said.
"I would have matched him with Edison Miranda, Glenn Johnson, these kind of household names in boxing that can raise his profile.
"The Bellew fight was a great fight, really close, but to then go and fight Robin Krasniqi, Shaun Hawk and Tommy Karpency? One, it did nothing for his profile and two, did nothing to prepare him for a Sergey Kovalev.
"I'm just a little bit different, I think everyone deserves an easy defence of a world title but no one deserves three easy defences and maybe you've seen that with Ricky Burns.
"He's had three really tough fights with me and he's lost his world title. But that's a sign of the times. People are bored of one-sided fights, broadcasters are bored.
"With Nathan I'd have done it differently. It's more about high profile fights and those three didn't really do that.
"But now it's a fresh start for him."

A LANDOWNER has branded Burnley Council 'cheeky' after it identified his farm as a possible permanent site for travellers without asking him.
Oathie Sykes, who owns Spa Wood Farm in Billington Road, said he had owned the land for 11 years but never been approached about using it as an authorised camp.
But Mr Sykes, who now lives in Cumbria, said he would be willing to let the council use the site, if the price was right.
The farm was highlighted as a potential site for up to 28 caravan pitches by a draft update to the authority's Local Plan, which will be discussed by councillors tomorrow night.
Mr Sykes, 47, said: "It's a bit cheeky that they haven't spoken to me.
"I did know they were looking for somewhere but I never thought any more of it.
"I've been trying to sell the land for a while but I've just a lot of interest in renting it.
"It's a good place, out of the way, and could be made into a good authorised camp."
Mr Sykes, a traveller who works in property maintenance, lived at the site with his family for 11 years before leaving Burnley last April.
He said he was willing to enter into talks with the council regarding the three-acre site.
"The roads need a bit of work but if they were fixed up it would be no problem," he said.
"It's a good place for families and is already used by some travellers on an unauthorised basis.
"I never had any grief there and I never gave any grief out. I pay my taxes.
"If the council make me an offer they'll have to make it worth my while.
"It's the only land we've got – all our savings went into that place."
The report — Burnley's Local Plan: Issues and Options — bases the need for traveller accommodation in the borough on a study carried out by the University of Salford in 2012.
A Burnley spokesman for Burnley Council said: "The council's executive is being asked to approve an options consultation document which will go out to public consultation in February/March.
"It does exactly what it says in the title — it sets out a large number of options, not firm decisions, for consultation and we want as many people who have an interest to come forward and give their views and suggestions."

Stop robbing rich clubs: McGuire plea
COLLINGWOOD president Eddie McGuire has pleaded with the AFL to stop draining money from the wealthy clubs to prop up those struggling teams that continue to drop behind at an alarming rate.
Responding to the competition's push to help create a more level playing field, McGuire had the following advice for the AFL: ''There's plenty of ways of making money before we have to strip everything down from the successful clubs.
''What's the point of going from great to good? The AFL have some very clever people working on its executive and we should have faith in them to come up with ways to raise revenue.
''Here's one idea: take the AFL logo off the front right-hand side on the breast of every players' jumper and put a sponsor's name there. There's $1 million for every club.
''We have an AFL logo on the front of the jumper, two on each number, one on the hip, one on the leg and two on the socks. I think everybody knows that the AFL is running the competition.''
The AFL's tacit admission that it has botched its five-year plan to boost the struggling clubs from the $1.15 billion broadcast revenue has drawn a mixed reception from clubs, ranging from scorn to outright dismay.
The admission has come less than one year into the new equalisation plan's inception and some club chief executives have implored the AFL to hold firm and give those clubs more time to improve their balance sheets.
Collingwood is one of several wealthier clubs that have pointed out the league needs to become more imaginative in raising revenue.
''We've put more money in than we've taken out,'' said McGuire. ''Collingwood has always supported equalisation and has always voted to keep all the Victorian clubs alive, but what we need to do is remodel.
''I have absolute empathy to struggling clubs, but you have to question why taking money out of the gate is what always comes up in this debate.''
Fairfax Media revealed on Tuesday that at last week's meeting of all 18 club chief executives on the Gold Coast, the AFL had instructed each club to put forward individual submissions to find ways to increase revenue and help equalise the competition.
The AFL Commission fears the widening gap between the rich and the poor will ultimately damage the competition, crowd and revenue.
The league admitted at last week's conference it remained keen to buy Etihad Stadium in a bid to create better deals for tenant clubs at the Docklands but considered the asking price too high.
That move would provide a major fillip for North Melbourne, the Western Bulldogs and St Kilda - all of which received a massive chunk of last year's multimillion-dollar five-year distribution but all of which still struggle to break even.
CEOs also pointed out the AFL boasts a future fund from the previous broadcast rights deal worth close to $100 million and that wealth from broadcast deals had been ploughed indiscriminately into the two new clubs on the Gold Coast and in Sydney. ''Half the future fund has been spent on the two new clubs,'' McGuire said.
''At Collingwood, we meet on a regular basis to look at new ways of raising revenue and that is what the AFL should be doing. Why do we only have one car dealership sponsoring the game at a cost to the growth of other clubs? As I've said, you've got these great people at the AFL. Here's your next task: find some ways to fix this problem.''

'Weird Al' Yankovic Talks 'Mandatory Fun,' Parodying The Pixies + More
Subscribe to Diffuser.fm on
Superstar parody artist 'Weird Al' Yankovic is releasing his new album, 'Mandatory Fun,' on July 15. Additionally, he's rolling out one video every day for a total of eight videos to spread virally across the Internet over the week.
We sat down with Weird Al to talk about the 'Mandatory Fun' album, his new song that parodies the Pixies' distinct style and the thinking behind his viral video strategy.
"I'll let each one of my videos go viral for a day," says Weird Al when asked why he doesn't spend more than one day focusing on promoting each video. "I'll make release week a special event." He adds, "There's no precedent. I'm trying to see what's going to work and this seemed like a fun thing to try."
One of the new songs, called 'First World Problems,' was inspired by a show Weird Al played with the Pixies a few years ago. The song is what he calls a 'style parody' or 'pastiche.' Instead of parodying one of the Pixies' songs, he says, "I tried to write a song like them, but maybe just a little more … twisted."
He also talks about some of the other parody songs on the album, and how he went about getting permission from the likes of Robin Thicke and Lorde.
Watch our video interview above, and check out the first of eight videos from 'Weird Al' Yankovic's 'Mandatory Fun,' a take on Pharrell's 'Happy' called 'Tacky,' below.
You can buy 'Mandatory Fun' now at Amazon or iTunes.

text: Elusive QB up first for Herd defense By Doug Smock August 28, 2013 Story Share Courtesy photo Austin Boucher will be making his first start for Miami in 966 days. HUNTINGTON, W.Va. - OK, so Marshall's retooled defense gets its first test Saturday night against Miami (Ohio).The RedHawks' "new" starting quarterback is Austin Boucher, and his his most scout-worthy video came in 2010. OK, also 2011 - that's only because the bowl game he won in Mobile, Ala., was played after New Year's Day.Does this fifth-year senior remind MU players of anyone?"[Tyler] Tettleton [of Ohio] and the guy from Rice, [Taylor] McHargue. Those are the two main ones," said safety D.J. Hunter, who chased both from his former linebacker position.Uh, oh. This will test the Thundering Herd's defense of new coordinator Chuck Heater, won't it?Remember, the "old" MU defense of since-departed coordinator Chris Rippon flunked its tests against Tettleton and McHargue.Tettleton accounted for four touchdowns in Ohio's 44-7 rout of the Herd in 2011, throwing for 285 yards on 20-of-29 passing and gaining 53 yards on the ground. In the Bobcats' 27-24 win last year, Tettleton threw for 200 yards and three touchdowns and rushed for 35 yards on seven carries, with nary a sack.The Herd was just plain lucky to defeat McHargue and the Owls 54-51 in double overtime. McHargue beat himself in the literal sense, injuring his shoulder at the 2-yard line by diving for what he thought could be the go-ahead touchdown in the waning minutes. McHargue looked like Johnny Manziel before then, passing for 314 yards and rushing for 153 and accounting for four long touchdowns - passes of 43, 31 and 50 yards plus a run of 43. He was injured at the end of a 47-yard scamper.Yes, Heater watched that video. The Ohio game, as well. He's seen just enough of Boucher to add urgency to his task of rebuilding the Herd's defense, physically, mentally and psychologically."There's a distinct advantage for a mobile quarterback," Heater said. "You get so many gaps to fill up, and the quarterback's going to escape. You've got to have enough recovery speed and athleticism on defense that you can recover and tackle him for minimal gain."Those guys are a problem for all defensive coaches, and that goes for the NFL as well." Boucher, a 6-foot-1, 214-pound fifth-year senior from Kettering, Ohio, has been stuck behind Zac Dysert the previous three seasons. No shame in that - Dysert was drafted in the seventh round by the Denver Broncos after throwing for 12,013 yards, passing Ben Roethlisberger for the school record.Dysert suffered a lacerated spleen late in the 2010 season, leaving the QB chores to Boucher, then a freshman. Boucher led the RedHawks on a game-winning drive against Bowling Green, threw for the winning TD over Northern Illinois in the Mid-American Conference championship game and was named MVP after a 35-21 win over Middle Tennessee in the GoDaddy.com Bowl.After that, he went 13 of 23 for 158 yards and one touchdown - for the entire 2011 and 2012 seasons. When he takes the field shortly after 7 p.m. Saturday at Joan C. Edwards Stadium, he will have gone 966 days between starts. "I'm very excited about the opportunity to play again," Boucher said Monday. "It was an honor and a blessing by my team to be named a captain, and I'm just excited to help lead this team, have the opportunity to be on the field again."Now, the Herd must figure him out with precious little video to do so. There is a fair amount of mystery around the skill positions.Junior receiver Dawan Scott (57 receptions, 851 yards, seven touchdowns last year) and senior tight ends Steve Marck (27-299) and 253-pound Dustin White (12-88) are known quantities, but others aren't. Scott's backup is a junior, but other receivers on the two-deep are freshmen or sophomores.That's fine by Boucher, who has long since gotten past the sudden transfer of Nick Harwell to Kansas in the spring."You know, we've moved past that, and we're just focused on the guys we have," Boucher said. "We have great receivers up and down the field: Rokeem Williams, Fred McRae, Dawan Scott, to name a few, with tight ends Dustin White and Steve Marck."We're excited to utilize the weapons we have; we think they're great players and can make any play." Marshall's defense should get a loud boost from a season-opening home crowd, but a little noise only goes so far against a fifth-year senior who can escape a collapsing pocket and make a defense pay."You have to contain him," said MU coach Doc Holliday. "You would have thought he would have gotten more snaps [in 2011-12]. He's very capable. If you go back and watch his last four games, he throws extremely catchable balls. He's also very accurate."Reach Doug Smock at 304-348-5140, firstname.lastname@example.com or follow him at twitter.com/dougsmock.

SHEPHERDSVILLE - For years, students enrolled in Bullitt County Public Schools have been permitted to transfer from one school to another with no restrictions.
That changed last year with redistricting when BCPS put a temporary policy in place that restricted transfers to only high school students, students with medical issues, children of full-time district employees and fifth and eighth grade students whose parents didn't want their children to change schools.

Here are some excellent tips from directors past and present; above, director Claire Denis.
As Alison Nastasi, who compiled these quotes, writes in Flavorwire, "artistic expression is an assertion of individuality, and all artists compose their work differently. In the case of filmmaking, there are numerous approaches to translating a story to celluloid. Inspired by director Wim Wenders' recent advertising short, Wim Wenders' Rules for Cinema Perfection, we've collected the golden rules of filmmaking employed by 100 famous directors. These tips and tricks are a wonderful source of advice and inspiration — even for the most seasoned professionals. The rules also serve as a fascinating snapshot of each directors' filmography, capturing the spirit of their work."

If you regularly use ssh to log in to another machine within your LAN, you might be interested in establishing some level of trust between the machines. In order to achieve it we can generate a pair of keys. If it's to be a mutual trust the keys need to be generated on all machines. In my case, it's going to be a one-way trust. First create a pair of keys on the machine you usually log in from. Let's call the machine 'local_machine' and the username will be 'sheldon':
sheldon@local_machine:~$ ssh-keygen -t rsa Generating public/private rsa key pair. Enter file in which to save the key (/home/sheldon/.ssh/id_rsa): Enter passphrase (empty for no passphrase): Enter same passphrase again: Your identification has been saved in /home/sheldon/.ssh/id_rsa. Your public key has been saved in /home/sheldon/.ssh/id_rsa.pub. The key fingerprint is: 3d:23:ab:6b:f3:27:46:44:6b:76:e2:41:5e:79:b8:d1 sheldon@local_machine The key's randomart image is: +--[ RSA 2048]----+ | + | | o = E | | + o + | | O.o | | =S++ | | oo o | | .. | | o.o . | | .o=.o | +-----------------+
Note that we need to leave the passphrases blank.
Then you need to copy the public key on the remote machine (remote_machine) with the user 'fred':
ssh-copy-id -i ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub fred@remote_machine
Now fred@remote_machine 'trusts' sheldon@local_machine and lets him in without asking for his password. If it doesn't work, you can edit /etc/ssh/sshd_config on the remote machine and add the following lines and restart ssh:
RSAAuthentication yes PubkeyAuthentication yes
Have fun!

A meeting on "Delivering Aid for Trade: Special Session on UN Trade-related Assistance in Belarus" was held in Geneva on 28 April during UNCTAD's Investment, Enterprise and Development Commission.
The United Nations Resident Coordinator in Belarus, along with representatives of UNECE, UNIDO and ITC, which are also members of the Cluster, described how this interagency grouping operates at the country level and contributes to UN systemwide coherence.
The CEB Interagency Cluster on Trade and Productive Capacity was established in 2007 with the main goal of advancing the Aid-for-Trade initiative and is now recognized as an efficient mechanism for delivering tailor-made, country-specific assistance in responding to governments' development priorities. The Cluster, part of the UN's Chief Executives Board, is coordinated by UNCTAD and includes UNIDO, UNDP, ITC, FAO, WTO, the five UN regional commissions, UNEP, and UNOPS.
Speakers described how the United Nations Development Assistance Framework 2011-2015 for Belarus, formulated jointly by the Government and the Resident Coordinator's office, benefited from the Cluster's broad areas of expertise. The Framework document focuses largely on trade, and in particular on the implications of international trade for the national economy.
To be undertaken in close coordination with other Cluster members, UNCTAD's operations in Belarus will consist mainly of implementing the recommendations of UNCTAD's Investment Policy Review of Belarus, published in 2009. These recommendations involve:
The 28 April meeting was co-chaired by Mr. Andrei Kobyakov, Deputy Prime Minister of Belarus, and Mr. Supachai Panitchpakdi, Secretary-General of UNCTAD. Belarus's Minister of Economy and Deputy Minister of Foreign Affairs, along with the country's Ambassador in Geneva, also took part.

Keep him, and bring him off the bench as one of the best (if not the best) 6th man in the league. Our bench still needs work, but Granger would be an immense improvement.
Danny granger was Paul George before Paul George. Lets just kick a player out of town that we brought up and groomed. Just when we finally get him some help and a team to compete with. Paul George is amazing but he is no reason to scrape your work horse when the two can co exist. Throw in lance as the sixth man and between the positions and you have three players for the next 5 that will cause the nba hell with thier scoring ability and grit.
The only position you trade him for is a young PF with PAUL George type potential. But even then you would argue that west,granger,George trio is better than anything we can play 2-3 years down the line. The only thing we will get for him is young talent and frankly I think this franchise should try to compete now with the way attendance has been for the past 8 years.
Keep him, no question.
I like how they say Danny isn't worth his contract...and he basically makes the same as Luol Deng, a player that most would agree is inferior to Danny. But, because Luol has thrived as a THIRD option he gets a pass.
Let's see how Danny does when he isn't the only scorer on the team. Danny/PG/West could be an offensive juggarnaut. Couple that with Hills spot up abilities, Roy's work on the glass...we haven't seen how this team will play yet.
It's so easy to forget that PG was a non-factor in the playoffs.
26pts 45fg% 40% 5reb 3assists 1stl 1.4blks is a damn good well rounded game. And you say, well that was on a bad team. His career numbers are 43.6fg% 38.4 3pt% so it's fairly consistent. The rest of the stats are consistent. You don't have that big of a sample size, and then completely change into a different player. The volume of shots will go down for him, but the percentages should be in that area. You add a consistent threat to dump 20pts on any given night and go for 30 on good nights, just like PG.
This talk of trading him is just crazy. Last set of games he played in pretty much everyone would have agreed he was the lynch pin. When he went down with his ankle injury, the team crapped down their collective legs. Him going from that important, to not important just isn't likely.

If Hibbert gets his act together...which it looks like he's making some progress...this team could compete for a ring if Granger blends in well. While I would always make a trade to improve the team, it is probably time to be careful...particularly if Granger is healthy. Only trade him now if it's a clear upgrade where a need is being met.
Lance is finally home. Whether he becomes our starting PG or he's 6th man, he's getting big minutes and he's here to stay. #llortontnia
For the love of gard why can't we just create a new forum called "Danny Granger - Effing Trade Rumors/Ideas" to go along with Indiana Pacers, Legends and the rest. At least then, it would all be confined to the same area and we wouldn't have to see a brand new thread every 4-5 days. My opinion has always been that this crap is getting old. Now, it's very, very old.
For real!
This space for rent.
Keep him or trade him? Right now he's not even playing....
Nuntius was right for a while. I was wrong for a while. But ultimately I was right and Frank Vogel has been let go.
"A player who makes a team great is more valuable than a great player. Losing yourself in the group, for the good of the group, thats teamwork."

Do we really need to argue which NBA players are overpaid? Yes,they are ALL overpaid. So, when we get right down to it, does it really matter by how much they are overpaid? I suppose there is only one accurate answer anyway.... "by one hell of a lot".
For the last damn time......
Stop quoting or even responding to that troll.
only way i trade danny, is if West gets an insane offer that doesnt make sense for the pacers to match and there is a good option to swap Danny for a really good replacement PF. I dont see that happening quite frankly. I am extremely excited about the Granger/George wing combo. With George's break out, they are two very scary scorers. They have great length, that with GH at the point, its going to be problems for the other teams.
Unless there's a move out there that can significantly improve this team, I'm keeping him.
Keep him, bring Lance in as the 6th man.
Keep him. IMHO I see this as a very tough team with Danny. You have length and strength at every position and it will give teams fits on both ends. The only way I would trade him is if we could get a legit elite SG spot and I don't see it out there right now. I think the Danny/PG duo will be a wonderful combination. My big worry is our ability to keep DW after this year. I believe he is worth Danny money so hopefully we keep him. I see us as being a scary team to face in the playoffs but I think next year if we can retain our core we will be scary as hell to other teams.

The Pacers cannot trade Granger this year. They need to find out what this group can become with him on the floor.
Granger's salary is only an issue in the future context of signing other key pieces and the luxary tax.
If Granger comes back and contributes to an epic Pacers playoff run then the franchise needs to keep him from a purely basketball standpoint but will have to make a tough financial decision on the luxary tax.
If Granger comes back and the team doesn't look championship relevant then trading him in the offseason for young pieces and/or draft picks probably needs to happen. In Grangers absence I have done a complete 180 and now see how much this franchise needs David West long-term.
Yes, NBA salaries are inflated. That is just the way of things. Unless/until a teacher or firefighter or other important professions can find a way to get 20,000 people paying $100 a head to watch them work, that's the way it is going to stay.
The truth is we are all worth what we can get. NBA guys are paid more because their owner wanted to pay them more. Life is unfair.

Uehara makes spring debut with pristine results
BRADENTON, Fla. -- For the first time since Game 6 of last year's World Series, Koji Uehara was back on the mound for the Red Sox on Monday against the Pirates.
And it didn't seem as if much had changed. Uehara fired 14 pitches, 10 of them for strikes, in the type of 1-2-3 clinic that marked his 2013 season.
"I'm surprised he threw four balls," joked right-hander Brandon Workman.
Uehara struck out two of the three batters he faced in Boston's 7-6 loss.
"He continues on, that's the best you can say," said Red Sox manager John Farrell. "And after four or five months down, he picks up where he left off, and he's just a joy to watch pitch."
Originally, Farrell was going to hold Uehara and setup man Junichi Tazawa back until later in the spring because of their workload during the postseason.
But both Japanese righties made their debuts on Monday. Tazawa worked around one hit in his scoreless inning.
Why the change in schedule?
"Sitting down with both of those guys and looking at the schedule, we're playing some National League teams, and they're going to have ample rest in between their outings," Farrell said. "We still target roughly seven outings in Spring Training for both of them. We can use the schedule somewhat to our advantage."

Call our customer service representatives and get expert advices for your Dremel tool.
Congratulations and welcome to the exciting world of Dremel versatile tool systems. Learn the basic concepts, terminology and operation of Dremel tools, attachments and accessories, as well as gain insight into the almost endless list of uses for our tools.
What is a Rotary tool?
Rotary tools are hand-held power tools that use high-speed and low torque to undertake a variety of useful tasks with control and precision. Since AJ Dremel invented the first rotary tool over 75 years ago, no other brand has worked harder to bring users a more complete and innovative system of rotary tools, accessories and attachments. Over the years Dremel rotary tools have become the gold standard in versatility, performance, and quality by which all other rotary tools are judged.
What Is an Oscillating Tool?
Oscillating tools like rotary tools use a variety of accessories to accomplish a wide range of DIY tasks for repair, remodeling and restoration. However, rather than spin like a rotary tool, oscillating tools use rapid side- to-side motion to cut, scrape, sand, remove grout, grind and more. You can rest assured that a Dremel oscillating tool will help you get the job done with superior versatility, durability, and control.
What Is a Trio™ tool?
The Dremel Trio allows users to cut, sand, and rout using one multi-purpose tool. Featuring a system of accessories and attachments to increase versatility, Trio users can cut multiple materials including wood, plastic, drywall, sheet metal, wall tile and more without switching tools. The tool's unique, 360-degree cutting technology and plunge-cut ability allows users to make quick and controlled cuts, while its unique, 90-degree pivoting handle facilitates added comfort, control, and accuracy.
The Collet
A collet is the most precise way to hold an accessory (bit) in a high speed rotary tool or the Dremel Trio. The collet is located underneath the collet nut, inserted in the end of the tool's shaft.
Rotary tool collet
There are 4 different sized collets available to accommodate different accessory shank sizes from 1/8 inch down to 1/32 inch. It is essential to use the correct sized collet for each accessory. The collets are marked with corresponding shank size: no rings – 1/8 inch (480), 1 ring – 1/32 inch (483), 2 rings – 1/16 inch (482), 3 rings – 3/32 inch (481).
Dremel Trio™ collet
The Dremel Trio tool uses a 3/16" collet for all Trio accessories. Trio accessories are exclusive to the Dremel Trio tool system and are not interchangeable with Dremel rotary tools. See your owner's manual for more detailed information on collets.
Dremel Multi-Max™ clamping screw
The Dremel Multi-Max oscillating tool uses a clamping screw and a washer to secure accessories onto the tool. A Hex Key wrench is used to loosen and tighten the clamping screw when installing and removing accessories.
There are several good ways to hold a Dremel rotary tool. Use the one that gives you the most control for your task. Or that you feel most comfortable with. One of these will work for you.
This grip offers the best control for fine detail work.
Use this grip with cutters when making longer, smoother cuts. This grip offers good control for cutting depth.
One and two hands. When you want to keep the tool parallel to the work surface for sanding or grinding, use the one-handed grip. Use the two-handed grip every time you use a cut-off wheel. Cut-off wheels can stick and cause kickback. Two hands offer better control.
Remember always use a light touch with a rotary tool. You're just guiding the tool. Let the high speed do all the work.

The credit crunch is already having an impact on energy markets. New projects are harder to fund. Highly leveraged companies are sometimes finding it necessary to shed assets. Some players are finding themselves to be the indirect casualties of other players, like Lehman, that have already failed. Long term, we will probably see consolidation and lower production than would have been the case without the credit crunch. Of course, if there is a major recession, it is possible that we won't need as high production.
In this post, I have tried to bring together some of the impacts of the credit crunch on the energy industry that are already being felt. If you are seeing other impacts, please make note of them in the comments.
One article seems to suggest that speculators are being driven away from the oil and gas industry, and that more care is being taken with counter-party risk:
Credit crunch slows oil trading
The OTC markets in oil have not seized up because of credit issues, but liquidity is lower and participants are treading more carefully.
Platts, a unit of the McGraw-Hill Cos. and which provides price assessments in physical oil markets, says derivatives trading, but not physical deals, is slowing down.
"The number of trades and the length of a trading chain are likely to be reduced because of the problems banks are having," said Jorge Montepeque, Platts global director of market reports.
"But the physical oil markets are carrying on because oil has to be moved from producers to consumers.
They said credit worries were also spurring a shift to clear over-the-counter (OTC) oil trades, such as price swaps, on NYMEX Clearport, which offers clearing for some OTC derivatives. . .
"People are worried about counterparty risk, so if you don't clear your OTC deal you are simply relying on your counterparty to perform," said Bellew.
More marginal production seems already to be getting squeezed:
Credit crisis squeezing western juniors
For Canada's junior oil and gas companies, the credit crunch comes on top of a helter-skelter commodity price drop that has hit company valuations hard.
As a result, new exploration activity now seems more fraught with risk, especially as Alberta is set to implement a new royalty regime in January that will erode profit margins.
"There's no doubt there's not enough capital around in the market," said Kel Johnston, chief executive officer of Alberta Clipper Inc., a Calgary-based junior oil and gas firm. "I can't see anything other than [drilling] levels dropping off, especially in Alberta."
Newer projects are getting squeezed, especially IPOs.
Russian IPOs fall dramatically amid credit crisis
NEW YORK (MarketWatch) — Capital raised through initial public offerings in the third quarter by companies from Russia and the former Soviet Union fell to the lowest level since 2004, as the global credit crisis took its toll, the PBN Company said Thursday.
Forty-three companies from the Commonwealth of Independent States (CIS) have postponed or pulled their flotations this year, said PBN, a consultancy with a focus on Russia and the CIS.The CIS consists of former Soviet republics, such as Russia, Ukraine, Belarus, Azerbaijan, Armenia, and Kazakhstan, among others.
The credit crisis is providing buying opportunities for the more cash-rich. The recent decline in prices is forcing the more highly leveraged companies to put properties up for sale, and this is putting downward pressure on sale prices of assets.
Cash-Rich Oil Firms Snap Up Assets
The turmoil on Wall Street is reshaping the U.S. oil industry, forcing debt-laden smaller producers to sell assets and creating opportunities for larger, cash-rich companies that until recently had been criticized by investors for spending too conservatively.
The latest example: Occidental Petroleum Corp., one of the largest independent oil producers, Thursday snapped up the 50% interest it didn't already own in oil and gas fields in Texas and the Rocky Mountains from smaller company Plains Exploration & Production Co. The $1.25 billion price tag was nearly 20% less than the $1.55 billion Occidental paid less than a year ago for the first half of the assets.
Another credit related sale was the purchase of Constellation Energy by Warren Buffet's Warren Buffet's Mid-American Energy Holdings. About this we read:
Constellation in Quick Deal With Buffett
Constellation's shares had fallen 70 percent since July 31 as investor concerns increased over the liquidity needs of the company's energy-trading business, which was growing until this year. That business relies heavily on financing that has all but disappeared with the turmoil in the financial markets.
Investor and lender confidence was damaged by chief executive Mayo A. Shattuck III's August disclosure that Constellation had dramatically underestimated the collateral it would need to put up if its credit rating were downgraded. Then late last month, the company took several steps to raise capital, selling off some natural gas reserves. That appears to have been too little, too late.
Then there are the indirect problems, coming from the failures of other organizations. For example, the state of Georgia formed the Georgia Municipal Gas Authority in 1987, to help communities get better prices in natural gas. This authority formed Main Street gas corporation, to enter into prepaid gas contracts on behalf of communities. These contracts were entered into with Lehman Brothers, J. P. Morgan, and Merrill Lynch. Now Lehman has defaulted on its contracts, and Main Street and the communities it represents will need to go looking for more natural gas, probably at higher prices. Tax exempt bonds were used to purchase this gas which has "gone missing". One hopes the contracts with J. P. Morgan and Merrill Lynch will hold up better.
Lehman failure leaves natural gas supplier searching
Main Street, an affiliate of the Municipal Gas Authority of Georgia, lost a $709 million, 30-year gas supply contract.
The contract was with a subsidiary of Lehman Brothers, the investment bank which collapsed last week.
Main Street now has to find new gas to replace the low-priced supplies that Lehman was supposed to deliver in Georgia and Florida.
The new gas will almost certainly cost more.
We also have the next layer, a gas marketer, failing as well. In Thursday's Atlanta Journal Constitution, we read:
Catalyst Energy Files for Bankruptcy
De Aguero said his company's bankruptcy stems directly from the meltdown on Wall Street.
"We are all aware of what's happening with the macro economy," he said. "And it's gone down into the midmarket and now Main Street."
"It's very common. It's going on all over the country right now."
Catalyst's credit line and gas supply contracts were both with Constellation Energy, the nation's largest independent energy marketer. Constellation was a trading partner of Lehman Brothers. Its stock price collapsed after Lehman Brothers' demise two weeks ago. Constellation announced it was selling itself to Warren Buffett's Mid American Holdings for a cheap discount a few days later.
Constellation cut off Catalyst late last week, leaving the marketer scrambling for credit in a market that isn't giving any.
"The illiquid credit markets have exacerbated the issue," de Aguero said.
The credit crisis can expect to cut back in investment in alternatives. Where an investment is made, it is likely to be made by the larger, better funded organizations.
Credit Crisis May Delay Biofuels Development
LONDON, Sept 29 (Reuters) – A global pull-back from bank lending may dent the commercialisation of biofuel technologies to replace conventional gasoline, said the chief executive of U.S. cellulosic ethanol firm BlueFire Ethanol.
A credit crisis which claimed more bank victims on Monday has raised project finance costs and made ambitious targets to replace fossil fuels with renewable energy sources look less achievable. . .
The credit crisis could slow that transition both through more costly finance and by diverting subsidies from renewables, which are often more expensive than conventional fossil fuels.
Credit Crisis Could Lead to Consolidation in Renewables Industry
A clamp down on the credit market will make it difficult for renewable energy developers to finance new projects, putting utility companies in a strong position to increase their share of the renewables pie, according to a Reuters report.
Utilities have large supplies of cash, and even if they have to borrow, they can do so more cheaply as government-regulated businesses, an analyst at Raymond James & Associates notes.
"The big projects being built by big utilities don't need to borrow from banks for short-term loans," said JP Morgan analyst Chris Rogers. "But if banks don't lend to each other they certainly won't lend to small project start-ups."
Let us know what you are seeing as well.

The Heights Cafe is a pleasant brunch spot, worth visiting as much for its proximity to the Brooklyn waterfront as for its simple, satisfying fare. Their menu aims to go beyond the standard bacon-and-eggs dishes as well, with creative touches meant to liven up classic dishes.
Take the poached eggs ($11.95). Instead of a standard English muffin-based Benedict, the eggs are served on a "grilled cheese smoked chicken griddle cake" (say that 5 times fast) and topped with a creole chorizo tomato sauce. Plenty of those words sound enticing, I'd say, but the dish fell short a bit in execution. The griddle cake worked texturally and a nice smokiness came through from the chicken, but the "grilled cheese" aspect was a not-fully melted slice of American. A sharp cheddar or pepper jack would have been fantastic here (and any cheese should've been melted).The sauce had a rich, spicy flavor; I tasted no evidence of chorizo. but didn't mind too much. I did mind the lack of runny yolk coming from my poached eggs; it would have been stellar mixed in with the sauce and coating the griddle cake.
The french toast ($10.95) was a simpler dish, but more successful. Thickly sliced brioche was topped with a pear and golden raisin compote, as well as a dollop of sweetened creme fraiche. The bread was excellent and the topping a rich, flavorful addition; nothing new, but a classic done well.
