15 Animals that haven't been made into Pokémon
[Continued] Page 2
8. Goblin Shark
The terrifying goblin shark is practically a Pokémon already. It's best known for its extendable jaw, which it can use to reach out and grab its prey. It also sports a long, sword-like snout that could easily be incorporated into a Pokémon design.
Its spooky appearance makes Water/Dark-type a good fit, but it'd be really cool to see what Game Freak could do with a Water/Ghost-type. Goblin sharks have been around for millions of years. Imagine them as souls cursed to roam the ocean eternally. It would make for an amazing Pokédex entry.
9. Jackalope
Game Freak's made a lot of rabbit Pokémon, but they've never done anything like a jackalope. A mythical rabbit/antelope hybrid feels like something they would have created on their own if it hadn't already been invented. It'd be great to watch one grow from a tiny bunny into a fearsome jackrabbit.
The milk of a jackalope is said to have medicinal properties, which would compliment the Normal-type move Milk Drink perfectly. That said, a Grass/Fighting jackalope would be a lot of fun. Jackrabbits in the wild sometimes look like they're boxing, and Headbutt would be brutal with those antlers.
10. Dalmatian
Every generation of Pokémon has a creature inspired by a dog, and it's high time we got a dalmatian. They have an iconic look that could blend into the Pokémon world with minimal alterations.
Since dalmatians are known as firehouse dogs, why not go with Water/Normal-type? It'd be pretty different from the dogs we've gotten in the past, and would make for some really fun animations. A standard Normal-type dalmatian would be fun, but not as fun as a dog with a built-in fire hose.
11. Cockroach
The indestructible cockroach would make an excellent defensive wall. Cockroaches aren't well-liked, but they'd definitely make for an interesting Pokémon. A Madagascar hissing cockroach already looks like it's wearing armor, and American cockroaches, gross though they may be, have a lot of personality.
Since Rock-types have such high defense, a Bug/Rock cockroach makes a lot of sense. A Dark/Bug roach would probably be easier to take down, but it could also make for a really fun design. Picture a cockroach as a tiny Pokémon supervillain.
12. Flamingo
It's hard to believe that there's not a flamingo Pokémon already. I had to double and triple check to make sure it'd never been done. When Game Freak finally gets around to making one, it'll feel like it's been in the Pokédex for years.
Flamingos spend their time wading in water, so Water-type is an obvious choice. It's figuring out what to combine it with that's tricky. A flamingo could potentially be a great HM slave. Maybe they can join Bibarel in the Normal/Water club.
13. Minotaur
A minotaur Pokémon could be both spectacular and terrifying. Sure, it'd be weird to feed it Poké Puffs in Pokémon-Amie, but it'd be impressive in battle. Your rivals would be intimidated before you used a single move.
There were rumors of a Fairy/Fighting minotaur for months before the release of X and Y. They didn't pan out, but it would have been awesome. Fire/Dark would also be suitable. No matter the typing, a minotaur Pokémon should definitely be a legendary. Players could travel through a labyrinth in order to catch the beast.
14. Hummingbird
Gamers have been wanting a hummingbird Pokémon for a long time, and not just because it'd have a formidable speed stat. Hummingbirds are small and adorable, but still pretty cool looking. They have the potential to be one of the most interesting birds in the Pokédex. They're also a perfect fit for the Sap Sipper ability.
Both Normal/Flying and Grass/Flying could work really well for a hummingbird Pokémon. Normal-type would suit a traditional design, and Grass-type would let Game Freak play with the hummingbird's love of flowers. Either option would look great in a Pokémon party.
15. Mantis Shrimp
The mantis is so cool looking it's hard to believe it's real. It feels like a miniature monster decked out in a dazzling array of colors. Adding to its appeal is the fact that its a brutal killing machine.
One of the many ways a mantis shrimp kills its prey involves electric shock waves, which means it'd make a great Water/Electric Pokémon. It can also boil its victims alive, making it an ideal choice for the first Water/Fire Pokémon. This is the Pokémon of dreams, and maybe someday we'll have the chance to unleash this tiny killer in a Pokémon battle.
Game Freak's created over 700 Pokémon, but there's still plenty left for them to do. No matter how many creatures they make, there'll always be more amazing animals they can use for inspiration. Be sure to share your ideas fo Pokémon in the comments!

A Biography with 220 Games
Frank Marshall (1877-1944) reigned as America's chess champion from 1907 through 1936 - the longest stint of anyone in history. A colorful character almost always decked out in an ascot and chewing a cigar, his career coincided with many evolutionary changes in competitive chess.
Frank Marshall - US Chess Champion
In chess, a transposition is a known position reached by a different move order than usual - a less obvious way of getting to somewhere you want to go, leading to confusion for your opponent. Every chess player has a number of them in his arsenal, and they are used most often in openings.

The games of Mikhail Botvinnik, world chess champion from 1948 to 1963, have been studied by players around the world for decades. But little has been written about Botvinnik himself. This book explores his unusual dual career--as a highly regarded scientist as well as the first truly professional chess player--as well as his complex relations with Soviet leaders, including Josef Stalin, his bitter rivalries, and his doomed effort to create the perfect chess-playing computer program. The book has more than 85 games, 127 diagrams, twelve photographs, a chronology of his life and career, a bibliography, an index of openings, an index of opponents, and a general index.

Companies in the EU can call for help if they fear that new technical regulations in other Member States could hamper the sales of their products.
Under the notification procedure provided in Directive 98/34/EC, Member States are obliged to inform the Commission and other Member States about their draft technical regulations on products and Information Society services before they are adopted into national law.
In 2009 and 2010, 1 525 draft technical regulations were notified, a number which increased in comparison with the previous period which covered three years (1 979 for 2006, 2007 and 2008). In 12% of the cases the Commission found that the new regulations could have led to obstacles to the free movement of goods. But in more than 95% of these cases, solutions are found before the adoption of the texts by Member States, avoiding infringement procedures which are always cumbersome and onerous for all parties involved.
Among the sectors concerned, construction again saw the highest number of notifications over the reporting period. Many measures related to energy efficiency of buildings and labelling of construction and decoration products regarding their volatile pollutant emissions. Construction was followed by agricultural products and foodstuffs. In this sector, several measures concerned food hygiene, genetically modified organisms, the composition and labelling of foodstuffs and beverages. Notifications increased significantly in the transport sector where many notifications related to traffic signals, vehicle safety, tractors and motor vehicle devices. Several notifications were received in the telecommunication sector, mainly concerning radio interfaces, and in the environment sector (eco-contribution on plastic bags, management of waste batteries and accumulators and labelling of reusable drink packaging).
The report on the functioning of Directive 98/34/EC in 2009 and 2010, published on 7 December 2011, highlights that the directive:
The standardisation part of the report consists of the information procedure on standards, the Commission requests to the European Standards Organisations (ESOs) for standardisation work ("mandates") and formal objections against standards. On average there are more than 1700 notifications for standards every year. This information procedure has brought transparency in standards at national and European level and has encouraged National Standards Bodies to continue to take initiatives at European level, in turn promoting European harmonisation.
Known as the "98/34" notification procedure, the early warning system under Directive 98/34/EC avoids the establishment of new technical barriers to trade. Conceived to implement the well known "Cassis de Dijon" case law on free movement of goods, it is a pillar of the internal market of goods. The case concerned the sale of "Cassis de Dijon" in Germany by a supermarket chain. The German authorities did not permit the import and marketing as a fruit liqueur of "Cassis de Dijon" into Germany because it has been produced according to different technical rules.
Through a system of standstill periods, Member States must refrain from adopting the notified draft regulations for at least three months to allow time for examination. This period can be extended up to 6 months in cases where the measure in question is likely to create unjustified barriers to trade and up to 18 months in cases of harmonisation work at EU level. All notifications can be consulted free of charge in the TRIS (Technical Regulations Information System) database, which is updated daily.

FAIRMONT, W.Va. (AP) — What began as a hobby for Don Trisel, a professor of biology at Fairmont State University, and his wife Kim has become much more over the years.
About 10 years ago, the Trisels purchased a piece of land behind their home in Farmington.
"It was all forest," Trisel said. "We had some beekeeper friends at church, and I suggested that they come out and put some hives on our property and take advantage of that resource."
Instead, the Trisels' friends made another suggestion.
"They said, 'No, but we'll help you get started,'" Trisel said. "And the rest is history."
Nearly a decade since their beekeeping days began, the Trisels have been named the state Beekeepers of the Year and will officially receive their award at a banquet in April.
"It's definitely an honor," Trisel said.
Trisel has taken the opportunity to incorporate beekeeping into the courses he teaches at FSU.
"I teach plant science courses, so there's a pretty strong relation between the plants and bees and the pollination process," Trisel said.
Trisel said he will have classes come to his home and do things in the field that relate to the topics they have been discussing in class throughout the semester. Following the educational component of the home visit, Trisel said he and his students take some time to also enjoy fellowship.
In addition, Trisel encourages his students to do individual research projects related to the genetics and diseases of honeybees.
"A lot of biology majors have goals to become doctors, dentists, pharmacists and other health professions," Trisel said. "What is a seemingly very different field of beekeeping still requires the basic research methods and techniques that they can use."
One of Trisel's students, Jaime Ford, has even taken up beekeeping on her own and conducts research on two beehives on her property.
Trisel said being named the state Beekeepers of the Year has opened up avenues and teaching opportunities.
"I feel privileged to be in the position that I am because I can write small grants and get a little funding for projects," Trisel said.
It's not just Don who is educating others. Kim Trisel does her part to spread the word about honeybees.
"I like to go into the schools because it's important to us to pass on the knowledge and to share it with others," she said.
Trisel said she has visited schools throughout the county to show the students what honeybees are all about.
"One of my main objectives is going into preschools to show them not to be afraid of bees," she said.
Not only are the Trisels educating others about beekeeping, but they are continually learning themselves.
"I keep learning more and more about beekeeping the whole time," Don Trisel said.
Trisel has also made significant contributions to the beekeeping industry as a whole. In 2010, Trisel performed testing for a disease known as nosema on samples that individuals sent to him.
"That was a community service project," Trisel said. "I don't like to do things that are so esoteric that nobody cares. I'd rather have my projects be more applied and of interest to a wider population."
The analysis of the samples gave valuable insight to the individuals who were seeking it.
"People could save money by not treating it if they didn't have the disease, and if they did have the disease, they could do something about it and hopefully prevent the loss of that colony," Trisel said.
And even as time goes on and the Trisels move beyond incorporating beekeeping into their professional lives, they won't give it up entirely.
"Through retirement and old age, it's something that we will do," Kim Trisel said. "It's one of those things that makes us happy, and the goal is always to be happy."

User Reviews
Submitted by quantman a Expert
Date Reviewed: March 23, 2013
Strengths: -Good value now that the price dropped by 2/3.
-Both the 02 and 06 zoom lenses are sharp, surprisingly so.
-Amazing telephoto capabilities with the 5.6 crop ratio.
Weaknesses: -Bokeh. The sensor is so small that unless you are very close most of the photo will be sharp.
-The in-camera blur option is OK, but doesn't substitute for creamy bokeh.
-No viewfinder. Using the screen makes it tough to focus a manual lens (if using one) in daylight.
-The fish-eye is more of a "toy" lens.
Bottom Line:
This camera is supposedly very popular in Japan but not so much here due to the cost, and reviews that compare the cost to the benefit. Those reviews are no longer valid now that the price of the camera has dropped by so much (below $250 with lens). This is not a DSLR and the smaller sensor won't provide the same quality shots. It is small--tiny actually--and will provide great screen shots and very good to excellent quality for anything smaller than an 8 x 10. The small sensor has a big disadvantage: Little bokeh (if you want it). The small sensor has a huge advantage: a 5.6 crop ratio. This means you can stick a 100mm portrait lens on it with an adapter and get an 35mm equivalent of a 560mm lens! A 300mm lens will give you an 1,680 35mm equivalent! You can actually get a better IQ with a long distance shot using the Q as opposed to using a DSLR, assuming you don't have access to quality super-telephoto lenses for a DSLR. Obviously, a tripod is mandatory when using a screen to focus manually at these crazy equivalents. All the other features makes the Q fun to use for a photographer that doesn't just want to shoot in the green mode.
The 02 lens is reviewed in detail by photozone.de, and I have nothing to add except that the 06 lens is similar in relative performance regarding sharpness (based upon my eye and not a lab test). The build quality seems to be exactly the same. The lenses are very light. They are also well built and should not have any issues over time. The manual focused fish-eye is cheap at around $100. It is an odd lens, sharp when focusing at a close object but having mediocre IQ when shooting at distance. I'll likely sell mine since at 5mm the automatic zoom is very sharp and gives a great wide angle IQ with a 35mm equivalent of 28mm. One negative is the distortion, which can be large shooting at wide angles with the Q's small sensor.
In summary, this is a fun camera that pushes the small size idea to the limit. It is what it is, with IQ limited by the sensor. For those times when I simply want to take along an easy to carry camera for those non-poster quality photos or screen shots, this fits the bill. For example, it is so light I almost forgot I had it with me during a recent cross-country ski outing. Being able to change lenses gave me better shots than my friends.
Note: Purchase price included the 02 lens.

ST. JOHNSBURY, Vt. (AP) - A former Vermont woman who served prison time for her role in the killing of her stepmother in 2000 says she wants to be free from the restrictions of probation.
Tashia Beer pleaded guilty to manslaughter in a case in which she was accused of persuading her foster brother to shoot Vicki Campbell-Beer of Lyndon. She was 14 when the crime happened. She was released from prison in 2006 and placed on indefinite probation.
Beer, now 28, married and living in Las Vegas, asked to be released from her probation.
Caledonia County State's Attorney Lisa Warren is opposing the request. The Caledonian-Record reports Judge Mary Miles Teachout granted Warren's request for a hearing.
Beer said in a statement that she is a changed person who supports two young children.

Georgia Street to honor Hoosier heroes come February
Hoosier heroes will soon be honored along Georgia Street downtown.
Wednesday, Mayor Greg Ballard gave details about the project to memorialize famous Hoosiers on decorative columns running along the popular street.
The first 10 honorees include Presidents Benjamin Harrison and Abraham Lincoln, legendary jazz guitarist Wes Montgomery, Pulitzer Prize winning author Booth Tarkington and Tecumseh, the chief of the Shawnee nation.
Each year, the names of a few more famous Hoosiers will be added. Mayor Ballard sees the project as a sort of outdoor classroom.
"I'm looking forward to people coming down and looking at those pillars and saying wow I never knew that," he said.
The columns will begin going up along Georgia Street in February. They'll be dedicated in March.Copyright © 2014, Hartford Courant

With computers taking on what is levitra more entertainment roles where user interaction is not as frequent, typical activity sensing power management sometimes becomes an annoyance rather than a helpful tool. A new webcam application called PecoBOO (with an emphasis on the 'eco') developed by the UK-based environmental computer manufacturer VeryPC uses facial recognition to determine whether or not there is a user in front of buy cialis on line the PC. If the user moves away, after 15 minutes, the computer goes into its power-saving standby mode.
This software allows a user to maintain power management without having to constantly keep having to move a mouse or tap a key to let the PC know that a user is still there. "Current power management software doesn't work very well because it interferes with people's lives - they're watching the iPlayer and the viagra daily monitor sleeps after fifteen minutes so they turn off the power management stuff. This is much simpler."
Occupancy sensors for rooms in buildings are a well-established method for controlling lights in spaces that are intermittently occupied. This provides a similar kind of function for computers.
It should be noted that this is tramadol online cod just performing detection of a face, rather than 'facial recognition.' In one case, a glitch was encountered with the system not properly shutting down due to a poster (with a face) on a wall in the computer's field of view.
The software is available for Windows XP and Vista, and comes included with new VeryPC computers. It is also available (in the UK) along with the purchase of a webcam.

A combination of poor growing conditions and government and military interdiction contributed to decreased opium production in Afghanistan this year, the New York Times reported May 22.
American officials hope that a bad year, coupled with aid and incentives, could push Afghanistan's farmers to move off the poppy crop, which help fund the Taliban opposition.
"If the government of Afghanistan will help us next year," said one farmer, Obidullah, "we will not grow poppy."
Weather and willpower might not be enough to kill production, however. Poppy is still the most profitable crop in Afghanistan, and short supply has driven up prices, encouraging many farmers to stick with the risk. And while the opium trade is technically illegal in Afghanistan, the American military is not authorized to enforce local laws.
Moreover, as one officer noted, attacking farmers would do little to win over the hearts and minds of the populace necessary to rebuild the country.

As she folded the ribbon across the crease to mark her spot, Grace flipped to the back page to pen a new entry: "We had the first snow on the 10th of November 1972."
Family bibles are considered goldmines by family historians, often imparting details of births, deaths and marriages. They are a primary source of record for many and even lineage societies such as the DAR deem family bibles as valid and truthful identification of genealogical material.
But the discovery of my paternal grandmother's little bible tickled my heart as I read her daily notes. It is void of genealogical value. No elaborate family tree of ancestral details, just daily happenings and little thoughts that floated from pen to paper on an average day, of an average year, to an average woman.
I have discovered that on the 19th of May 1972, my grandmother got her hair permed and on the 5th of October 1972, my Aunt Irene visited my grandparents and left on the 10th.
Turning the pages, I discover that "Truman died on the 26th day of December 1972" and "Johnson died on the 22nd day of January 1973" and somewhere in between, a family member "left for overseas."
Dates of president's deaths, Vietnam war deployments, weekly hair appointments and autumn snows--a year in the life of my grandmother squeezed amidst the pages of a little tattered bible.
A sort of daily journal, unremarkable yet precious to me. It captures a life in its simplicity and that alone holds intrinsic value and I shall treat it as such.
Search out your family bibles and if you find one filled with beautiful, elaborate trees forthcoming of ancestral value then rejoice in the discovery. But if you are fortunate to run across a little tattered bible, ripped at the seams from daily use, you may turn the pages and realize a simple day in the life of your grandmother.
And feel grateful in the discovery because sometimes, daily simplicity holds great value too.

Light snow and sleet in the metro caused dangerous driving conditions Tuesday. By eight p.m. Jackson police had investigated 38 accidents with injuries.
During the day a number of vehicles left the roadway after hitting patches of ice.
On I-20 West near Robinson Road an 18 wheeler jackknifed in the median after the driver says he slid on ice. Minutes later another tractor trailer hit the same spot and rear ended a Toyota Tacoma.
The driver of the jackknifed truck, from Queens New York, had just picked up a load in Jackson.
"I heard about bad weather and actually my Aunt Deloris called and asked me had I been looking at the news and she told me to be careful. Coincidentally they are pretty bad," said trucker Jonathan Hood.
David Cox, of Mansfield Ohio, was parked on the roadside after his gray 18 wheeler encountered a stretch of ice.
"Ours was on the bridge when he got over I slid on the bridge when he got over. He didn't cut me off, but there was just not enough room for me," said Cox.
"I slowed down because I saw that there was a bridge about to come up and all of a sudden I got rear ended by an 18 wheeler," said Chris Patterson after being hit from behind by Cox's big rig. "So my advice is, if you can stay off the roads, just definitely do it."
MDOT crews arrived about half an hour later spreading de-icing materials on the I-20 bridge.
At I-20 at the I-220 split another tractor trailer, carrying construction equipment, left the roadway.
It also drove over thick ice beneath a nearby overpass.
Below freezing temperatures could cause ice problems to continue. More de-icing materials are needed on area roadways.

"We have received numerous compliments on our save-the-dates! Highly recommend this choice. Shipping was fast and convenient too."
"It was not difficult for us to find the exact save the date we wanted. Then the customization was a breeze. The only trouble we encountered was that when we were ready to pay, there was a glitch in the system and it appeared that the cc went through twice. Called customer service the next day and it only went through once and was fine! The save the dates came in a few days and were beautiful! Highly recommend this site/designer as both are great!"
"Delivered fast, color turned out perfect even after adding a filter to it, not fuzzy, the orange color is very bright and makes the card pop."
"Very fast delivery and looked great. Everyone is raving over our magnets. Larger than I expected, in a good way. Product looks professional and came packaged very well. Great price too!"
"I just wanted to say how pleased I am with my save the date postcards (Poster Print). It was so easy to customize the wording and colors. The paper quality is great. I'm glad I went with the pearl shimmer as it makes them pop just a little bit more. The designer who worked with me was very patient even though I felt like I was making lots of little changes. We have received a bunch of compliments on them and I can't wait to get my matching invitations!"

EL PASO, Texas — The Salvation Army was in a predicament earlier Tuesday, as more people than usual were seeking shelter from the wind and cold.
So they put out a call for help.
They never leave a soldier behind.
On this cold, blustery night the U.S. Army at Fort Bliss helped out another kind of army, the Salvation Army.
"We just can't thank them enough," said Wes Trueblood from the Salvation Army. "We really can't. Obviously there are so many people who are in need especially when you're looking at conditions like this".
The weather started turning windy and colder last night making for a much different borderland today.
These guys at the Salvation Army on East Paisano knew they were going to need more beds to help out the homeless. Fort Bliss loaned them forty cots to help those in need.
But there's another aspect of the sudden cold spell that can be dangerous.
Big temperature flucuations like we're expecting by the end of the week can make you sick.
"If you're not prepared and you don't have your coat your body, which is accustomed to running at a certain temperature it's resistance is going to change," said Robert Bettes, Local 4 News Chief Meteorologist.
Don't get confused though, Bettes said it's not the weather's fault that you get sick when the temperatures change drastically.
"The weather will not make you sick," said Bettes "What happens is that your body is not prepared for dramatic change in temperature".
Your body might not be prepared, but the Salvation Army says they are..

Inventory Down, Sales Pace Hovering
A: So, November will close out with the usual holiday slowdown as the past few days saw very low activity. It still appears that November is on pace to beat out October, a sign of solid action out there considering where we just came from. If your a buyer and ran into 'multiple bids' and 'contracts out' situations lately, your not alone. However, I would expect demand to stay somewhat muted for the next 4-6 weeks; opposite of what we have seen the past few months. For now, my eyes are on the seasonality of December where we usually see a surge in Off-Market trends.
Here is a chart showing you ACTIVE Inventory vs PENDING Sales for Manhattan since October 1st:
As the chart shows, inventory is down and the pace of sales is hovering at current levels after a nice move up - a strong sign considering the action we had the past few months. That increase in activity is building a nice pending sales pipeline that is more likely to get captured in the future Q1-2011 report, NOT the upcoming Q4-2010 report that is released Jan 2nd, 2011. The Q1-2011 report will reflect closings recorded from Jan-March.
I would expect a number of listings that have not sold and dont have a time pressure to sell, to be removed from the market as we get into mid December; usually to be brought back on the market around mid-January. So lets watch how that plays out. In the meantime, savvy buyers can try to utilize the usually slower month of December to try and nab a good property without interference from other motivated and qualified buyers.
Don't underestimate the psychology of many buyers out there. What I mean is, buyers tend to hate when they lose out on a great property to a higher bidder. However, when that happens it justifies the buyer's taste in property and their submitted offer; as well as the perceived liquidity for what appears to be a sought after product.
But when that same buyer finds a property on the market for 60+ days, that hasn't sold and has no other competing bids in, they tend to question why this property may not be gathering outside interest? In addition, they question their offer for what may be perceived as a less liquid, less desirable product. So, they want to get a great deal but they also want a product that is highly desired and where multiple bids are coming in right below theirs; justifying the level of their offer. This is a fantasy land situation that never happens in the field. It's always easier to conduct a one-on-one private negotiation where the seller risks losing the deal if you walk away. Getting that leverage should be welcome, so don't look down on it if you find yourself in that situation.
The contrarian in me loves to look at the slower times during the calendar year as opportunities to more effectively bid for desired property. And the upcoming 4-6 weeks is no different. I just hope the good stuff is not removed from the marketplace until after the new year!!

At times, Georgia politics can seem like a bipartisan cafeteria of conspiracy theories.
Republicans have Agenda 21. This week, GOP state senators will attend a four-hour seminar at the Capitol to study the link between zoning and a U.N.-backed socialist cabal.
Democrats have Clayton County, where everyone knows that, if you believe in Victor Hill, you must also believe that someone is out to get him.
The former Clayton sheriff won the Democratic primary this summer to reclaim the office he lost to Kem Kimbrough in 2008. Only two things stand between Hill and a January swearing-in: A long-shot write-in candidate and a 37-count indictment, primarily for the misuse of government resources during his flamboyant four years as sheriff.
A trial by a jury that will be drawn, in large part, from the pool of voters that just elected him has been scheduled for Nov. 26.
Hill says it's all part of a plot. "A lot of people that are involved in illegal activity stand in danger of not being able to make money if I'm sheriff. Everybody knows that," he said last week.
Since his primary win, Hill has closely rationed his time with local journalists. But on Thursday night, at a local Atlanta night spot, Hill consented to a 30-minute interview for Internet broadcast. You can watch it here.
"Newsmakers" Live is the creation of Jim Welcome. For years, the executive producer's cameras and lights have moved from club to club, where prominent politicians – most of them African-American — undergo relaxed interviews in front of friendly crowds.
"The secret is where you are," Welcome said. The Hill interview was at Bar One in Grant Park. The once-and-perhaps-future Clayton sheriff was fronted by a young local R&B crooner who goes by the name of Renegade. He had nice pipes.
When his turn came, Hill was quick to reject all aspersions that have been cast upon the Clayton electorate. "I think we proved that the voters are very intelligent They're intelligent enough not to listen to the media," he said.
Prodded by his conservative interviewer, longtime Atlanta radio voice Shelly Wynter, the one-time detective and former state lawmaker declared himself a changed, more mature man. "It's no different than a good chess game," Hill said. "I have found better ways to move the pieces to achieve the objective."
This is no small admission for a fellow who, when he became sheriff in 2005, fired a half-dozen deputies, then posted look-outs on the department's roof as they exited. The media called them snipers. Hill says they were "observers" – who never actually pointed their weapons at their former colleagues.
"Everyone we fired had guns. We had to take extra precautions," Hill told his interviewer.
Clayton County has a police department. But while sheriff, Hill rejected a role that restricted him to serving warrants, keeping the jail and protecting the courthouse. He enjoyed comparisons to another unorthodox crime-fighter – Batman – and said it was this reputation that resulted in his victory this summer.
"I'm not going to sit by and watch my county get raped, robbed and murdered, and not do something about it – when I've got an army of deputies that can do something," Hill said.
The 37 counts against Hill include using his county-issued patrol car and county-issued credit card for vacations and requiring the sheriff's department spokesman to pen his biography. Hill is also accused of transferring money from his campaign bank accounts to businesses he owned, and of writing campaign checks to individuals who would return the money to him.
("He is essentially taking from himself and therefore cannot be guilty of a crime," one of his attorneys argued at a hearing last month.)
The grand jury investigation was conducted by a special prosecutor. But Hill has declared that Kimbrough, the outgoing sheriff, and certain unseen forces are behind the charges. "There's a lot of folks threatened by me being sheriff again," Hill said. "Who?" Wynter pressed.
"Let's put it this way. I think it was well publicized that the mob sued me when I was sheriff for trying to close down an establishment that we had proven had drugs and prostitution going on," Hill said. "We need not mention names. It's a well-known fact that a well-known politician …was a well-known friend of folks that I was trying to make sure leave Clayton County – so that we could have a higher quality of life."
The Democratic nominee for sheriff repeatedly jabbed the media for neglecting what he declared to be obvious signs that a railroading is underway. He also expressed disappointment that the civil rights community has not come to his side.
But it is the racketeering charges that prosecutors have tacked on — not uncommon in official malfeasance cases — that appear to sting Hill most. "Now I'm Don Corleone," Hill said. "If they've done that to me, what have they done to other people?"
Hill pledged not to cop a plea, but a single felony conviction would bar him from taking office. Wynter tried to raise that possibility several times, but each time Hill interrupted him. "I feel like Jim Lehrer," Wynter finally said in defeat.
So what happens if a jury exonerates you and you're sworn in? Will you fire more deputies? Wynter asked.
"I've got to delegate responsibility. Human resources will have to take care of that for me. I didn't have a human resources program the first time," Hill replied.
A changed man, indeed.

If Hill gets a jury full of Obama supporters then he will not be found guilty of anything and the jury will blame the white man for trying to hold the black man down.

To borrow another line from "The Godfather", an assistant DA somewhere is saying of Hill, "I'll make him an offer he can't refuse."

Hmmm………it would be reasonable that anyone who knew nothing about Victor Hill would say someone is out to get him; if not why is there a massive campaign in the county to overturn an election in which he won. Were the voters stupid or did they believe he was the best choice to handle the volume of crime in the county? Why do some people REALLY hate him so much?
October 6th, 2012

"Four more years for a caring President."
I know what YOUR president cares about, double, and it ain't you. Check out the Rasmussen Daily Tracking Poll for today. Things ain't looking too good for your soon-to-be ex-president. Can you say, "Bye, Bye Barak"? Better get used to it! You going to call a wake for election night? If you do, get plenty of liquor and tell everybody it's a BYOG (Bring Your Own Gun) event!

"Why do some people REALLY hate him so much?"
Duh . . . 'cause he's a criminal?
. . . but don't worry about Hill's future. I hear Eric Holder is considering him for a high Justice Department position. Hill will fit right in with Holder and the rest of Obama's criminals.

Obama may set yet one more record before departing in January. He may very well be the first president to issue a blanket pardon to all Obama appointees. It may well be the only way he can save many of them serving time in prison. He definitely needs to pardon himself, if he legally can do so.

A word to all fellow conservatives:
When the dust has settled after Governor Romney's election as president in November, some things are certain to happen.
The leftist media already suspects (knows?) that Obama will not be re-elected. Even though they shamelessly supported and caused the election of the unvetted Obama in 2008, they are unable to work their magic again. The media will doubtless have reasons to explain Obama's defeat. The leftist media will NOT cite the jobless rate, inflation, massive deficits and growing indebtedness, a non-existent (or failed?) foreign policy, a generally corrupt administration, the unequal dispensing of justice at the hands of Holder, failure to provide adequate safeguards for American embassy personnel abroad, "secret deals" with foreign powers to be consummated after the election, failure to adequately deal with Muslim jihadists, his and his families extravagant vacations while so many in America are facing dire financial conditions, the ever-increasing number of food stamp recipients, the astronomical price of fuel while he permits no oil drilling on public lands, his refusal of the Canadian Pipeline, The passage of the hated ObamaCare legislation or the many other failures of Obama's administration.
They, and many of the black racists/race baiters who blog here, will proclaim "racism" as the cause for his defeat. They will shout this claim despite the fact that he was elected in 2008.
You watch for it . . . because it is coming!

Most astute people know that Governor Del is covered under the Congressional retirement plan, and his health care is also provided in that manner.
President Romney needs neither, but of course by virtue of being and retiring as president, his retirement and health care will also be provided him just as it is for all past presidents.

I know all conservatives believe in serious education reform and the CC movement as I do but I for one do not believe in this Constitutional amendment and will be voting no.

td@8:40, My area school district has defeated charter schools. Don't know what solution is. Too much politics in local hasn't worked & too much power in state probably won't either. Rats are in both.

I believe I have an idea as to your plans for handling possible problems. Many years ago I learned something of perimeter defenses. I combined what I had learned with modern technology and came up with what I believe to be a very good system. I have some acreage and it is impossible for anyone to breach my perimeter without my knowledge. Even deer and large dogs can't traverse my property without my knowledge, but they have nothing to fear. In fact, they know I'm good for a meal if they're hungry. Unwanted and uninvited people intrude at their risk. Remotely controlled devices are so handy!

Liberals defend Obama's absence from daily security briefings & refusals to meet with national leaders during the UN summit. Yeah, he can read the prepared booklet on critical national security & call up national leaders on the phone. These are the same liberals who think face-to-face meetings are a waste of time & that family reunions can be replaced with emails, faxes & phone calls. Multi-tasking is a liberal "thing" until we get nuclear-bombed.

Since you mention both "racism from the pits of his so called Christian stomach" and "Jim Crow", I think it only fair to assume that you are a race baiter and thus worthy of no further consideration.

Those of you who are convinced that Mr. Romney will win, should put that conviction to work for you on Intrade. There are 100 Romney shares available this morning at $3.62 that aren't selling. You could almost triple your money if Mr. Romney wins. And, if you wait a few days, you probably could, as the Romney share dropped 11 cents yesterday. Yep, shares available just went to 148.
However, if you're more conservative with your money, you should consider the Obama shares. They are, however, selling at $6.36; but only 98 shares are available. Wait a minute, the price just increased to $6.37.
