A loud "boom" heard in the Grovetown area Tuesday evening likely came from an airplane breaking the sound barrier.
Columbia County Emergency and Operations Director Pam Tucker said several residents of the Old Louisville Road area near Harlem-Grovetown Road reported the noise about 8 p.m. Tuesday.
"I had more reports this morning," she said in an email. "It was described as sounding like a 'mortar round' and 'explosion' with a short vibration."
Voters eager to cast ballots in the Nov. 6 election will have the opportunity as early as Monday.
That's when the first absentee ballots will be mailed out by the Columbia County Board of Elections.
More than 900 absentee-by-mail ballots already have been requested and will be mailed Monday, said Board of Elections Registration Coordinator Nancy Gay.
The actual first day for absentees-by-mail is Saturday, but the office is closed that day.
The man accused of driving the vehicle that killed a Martinez teenager a week ago has been charged with vehicular homicide.
Lucky Wade Jackson, 43, of the 300 block of Buxton Lane in Evans, turned himself in to the Columbia County Sheriff's Office Wednesday morning and was charged in the Sept. 12 crash that killed 19-year-old Jordan White of Martinez, said Capt. Steve Morris.
A Grovetown man is $688,187 richer after getting the right numbers in a Georgia lottery drawing.
Wayne Hartley let the computer pick the numbers 2-9-23-27-35 in the Sept. 4 Fantasy 5 game for a ticket he purchased at the Rack and Grill at 3841 Old Petersburg Road in Martinez, according to a press release from the Georgia Lottery.
Hartley claimed his prize recently at the Georgia Lottery District Office in Augusta, the notice stated.
Early voting in Columbia County for the Aug. 21 runoff will begin Monday at the Board of Elections office in Evans.
Voters will be asked to settle races for the Republican nomination for the 12th District seat to the United States House of Representatives, and to the non-partisan District 1 seat for the Columbia County Board of Education.
Voting will take place Monday through Friday from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. at the Columbia County Board of Elections office at 500 Faircloth Drive, Building E, in Evans, said Columbia County Registration Coordinator Nancy Gay.

Local talent show
Local performers will take the stage tonight at the Columbia County Amphitheater in Evans to prove their talent.
The Columbia County Amateur Series resumes from 7-9 p.m. and will continue most Fridays through Sept. 8.
The series, based on America's Got Talent, features 40 performers between the ages of 7 and 60 whose talents include dancing, hula-hooping and singing.
A winner is named each month and that participant will go on to compete in the September finale for the grand prize.
A couple of new captains will be at the helm of two Columbia County elementary schools when classes resume next week.
Stephanie Reese is the new principal of Brookwood Elementary, and Laura Hughes is the new principal at North Columbia Elementary.
Reese, an educator for 20 years, takes over for the only principal Brookwood has had since its 1988 opening.
Brenda Jones, a more than 40-year veteran of Columbia County schools, retired in the spring. Superintendent Charles Nagle called her "an icon."
Reese said she's up to the challenge.

Jeff Carter realizes how smooth the Los Angeles Kings' 6-1 run through the postseason must look.
The former Flyer knows most people don't realize how the Western Conference's eighth seeds had to grind, scratch and scrape just to get a chance to look so good.
"The last month of the regular season, we were playing playoff hockey," Carter said Tuesday after the Kings returned from consecutive victories over the Blues in St. Louis to open their second-round series.
"We had to fight just to get in, and once you get in, anything can happen with how close the teams are," he added. "An eight seed doesn't really mean anything once you're in. Anything can happen. That month before the playoffs started has helped us. We just kept rolling the way we've been playing. It's good."

Description: Melville is a cardinal who suddenly finds himself elected as the next Pope. Never the front runner and completely caught off guard, he panics as he's presented to the faithful in St. Peter's Square. To prevent a world wide crisis, the Vatican's spokesman calls in an unlikely psychiatrist who is neither religious or all that committed to find out what is wrong with the new Pope. As the world nervously waits outside, inside the therapist tries to find a solution. But Cardinal Melville is adamant: he does not want the job, or at least needs time to think it over. What follows is a marvelous insight into the concept of a human being existing behind the title of God's representative on Earth.

The high court ruled this month that the practice known as "psychiatric boarding" was unlawful. The state estimates that the ruling applies to about 200 people.
Complying with the court's decision will cost the state "tens of millions of dollars in the short term," said Andi Smith, Gov. Jay Inslee's senior policy adviser on health and human services, during a call with reporters Thursday.
She said that the state plans to add 50 beds by Aug. 27, leaving the potential for some people to be released without care.
Inslee hasn't ruled out a special session, Smith said, but the Department of Social and Health Services may be able to shift resources until a supplemental budget request is made to lawmakers next year.
Mental-health officials have been struggling to respond to the high court's Aug. 7 decision.
The justices ruled that mentally ill patients who are involuntarily committed cannot be "warehoused" in emergency rooms or acute care centers as a way to avoid overcrowding certified mental health facilities. Patients have a right to adequate care and individualized treatment, and state law required they be detained in certified evaluation and treatment facilities, the court said.
"We simply don't have the bed capacity to serve all the people who need treatment," Smith said, adding that they're working hard but "the problem will not be solved on Day 1."
The state's involuntary treatment law passed in 1973 allows people to be committed to a mental hospital or institution against their will for a limited period of time. The purpose is to evaluate and treat people with a mental disorder who may be gravely disabled or pose a danger to themselves.
The state has been using "single bed certifications" as a way to temporarily hold involuntarily committed people in hospitals that aren't certified to evaluate or treat their mental illness.
In response to the court decision, state health administrators are planning to add 50 beds, including a few beds at Eastern State Hospital at Medical Lake, as well as at two psychiatric hospitals in King County and community-based facilities, said Jane Beyer, with the Social and Human Services agency.
It's unclear what will happen to patients who won't have psychiatric beds after the court decision kicks in this month.
Hospitals have a mandate to safety discharge plans, and they may still take in mentally ill people and provide care for them even though the single-bed certifications will be unlawful, Smith said.
The state is also hoping that plaintiffs who brought the case against Social and Health Services won't ask to eliminate hospitals' ability to hold mentally ill people at emergency rooms for 72 hours, Beyer said.

Carlsbad man survives car crash down a cliff
CARLSBAD, N.M. (AP) — A Carlsbad man is recovering after the pickup truck he was driving veered off the road and down a cliff in the Rocky Arroyo area.
Cory Lemon says he fell asleep [auth] while driving last Sunday night from Carlsbad to the small community of Queen.
Lemon told the Carlsbad Current-Argus (http://bit.ly/1g4yJ8Y) that he woke up when the wheels on the passenger side of his truck went off the pavement.
His truck went about 100 feet down the cliff to the bottom of a ravine.
Lemon used his cellphone to call a friend in Queen and get help.
His mother help search for Lemon, who was airlifted to a Carlsbad hospital.
Other than suffering bruises over most of his body, Lemon says he's OK and he returned home from the hospital Tuesday.

Nelson Mandela Buried in Hometown
A village called Qunu.
Following a large and very public memorial service on Tuesday, the body of South African leader Nelson Mandela was laid to rest in his hometown of Qunu, South Africa on Sunday. Associated Press reports that military officers both black and white rolled Mandela's flag-draped coffin to his family's burial plot there, while "formations of planes and military helicopters, South African flags flapping from the bellies, flew over the green hills where thousands of mourners had gathered." This time around, guests paying their final respects to the anti-apartheid champion included African National Congress military veterans, U.S. Ambassador Patrick Gaspard, Britain's Prince Charles, Monaco's Prince Albert II, Oprah Winfrey, Richard Branson, and former Zimbabwean Prime Minister Morgan Tsvangirai. No one was seen taking a selfie.

When I create a new user it puts them in domain users. I have other groups that I wish were there that I have to go back and put them in. How can I add those to be the default in active directory?
Create a template user then copy that user when you create a new person!
You could use dsadd / dsmod commands to create the account and/or add it to relevant groups, and it's pretty easy to do this in a batch file that you call and provide a user name at the same time. Not a solution to add them by default (tony's answer is correct for that), but maybe better in the long term.
Let's say that today your default is for membership of groups A, B, C. Next month you change the default to be A, B, C, D, and update your template. But you still have to go and update existing users. The batch scripting method makes it easy to run the same commands against previous accounts too.

Describes two custom integrated circuits which were developed for an implantable pulsed Doppler ultrasonic blood flowmeter. Prime design goals were a minimum circuit volume, minimum power consumption, and operation at low supply voltages. The first of the two IC's performs system timing functions and produces the ultrasonic transmit burst. It can deliver up to 40 mW of peak output power at 50 percent efficiency and requires 3.7 mW standby power. The second IC, containing an RF amplifier, mixer and output amplifier, provides 54 dB conversion voltage gain for an 0.8 MHz bandwidth centered at 5.8 MHz, <3 dB noise figure, a dynamic range of 40 dB, and 1 μs recovery time from a 1 V overload. This chip requires 2.7 mW power input.

I know tons of people on here hate on warranties and I dont prefer to buy them myself either. I recently cracked my laptop screen and was quoted about $480 from LG (even under manufacturer warranty) and futureshop couldnt give me a price. Both had to ship and make me wait weeks to get it back and if I declined their estimate to the repair Id have to at least pay them 50 or 40 bucks respectively just for having it examined.
Instead I called around and went to Computer Care Center in Ottawa and got the screen replaced with a brand new one in an hour for $250.
If I had bought a warranty originally from FS, it would have been like 300-400 dollars and I dont think it wuold have even covered this accidental damage.
I talked to the guys there and they told me that all the work they do there is usually for futureshop (he even showed me reciepts) and futureshop actually marks up the price of the repair 50-100 extra.
He told me Computer Care Centre does any kind of repair and the prices for them.
So my point is, since its pretty rare for all out hardware failure, wouldnt it just be better to repair the laptop yourself, paying 200 bucks when you actually need it rather than 300 up front?
PLUS..barely any wait time and hassle. I've read a lot of your horror stories about having to negotiate with FS on warranty coverage.

In your case it was but insurance is a risk/reward comparison. Sometimes it's cheaper to have the insurance and sometimes it isn't. If the warranty always cost less than the repairs, then no one would offer warranties.Reply With Quote LOG IN TO THANK No one has yet thanked spf1971 for this post.

Warranties are hit and miss. I got a dell m1710 gaming laptop about 3 years ago. I got the complete care next business day warranty which includes ANY kind of damage including dropping it or breaking the screen. The only thing not covered is the battery (which miraculously dies riiight after 1 year ). I have had alot of work done on my laptop. The only problems I have had is talking to customer care, they take a loooong time to make sure there is something wrong. I end up spending 2-3 hours on the phone with them doing diagnostics and what not. Although, I have not had any problems getting anything that is wrong fixed. The repair technician normally comes out to my home to replace whatever needs to be replaced, or if it is something like a hard drive or cd drive or keyboard, they send it to you in a box and you change it yourself and return what you took out. Overall, the warranty was well worth what I paid.
One last thing I would say is that you should ALWAYS get a warranty on a laptop. A desktop isnt a big deal but laptops are more prone to damage, both external and internal. It can cost alot to repair them too because parts are not as abundant as desktop parts so costs can rack up quick. The only thing I hate about FS and BB warranties is that they take forever to fix things. They do not do anything in house, they always send to manufacturer or to someone else. Although, with some computer companies companies they may have an approved repair facility near your location where you can take it in personally and they will fix it for you through the 1 year manufacturer warranty (costing you nothing). I have had this experience through Asus.

My friend once told me he knew someone works in an insurance company that offered Bestbuy and Futureshop warranty. It works like this: Customer pays $100 for the warranty, Bestbuy or Futureshop buy the warranty from an insurance company for $50, and the insurance company offered this warranty still makes $$$. Now, you figure out if this is worth it.Reply With Quote LOG IN TO THANK No one has yet thanked golden for this post.

I personally subscribe to the idea of putting aside the money you would have spent on the warranty in a bank account and if you need it to fix your electronic product then it's there ... if you don't need it fixed then not only did you save that money, it also earned you some interest as well (if you put them in a high interest account).
Another option is to set aside $10 a month automatically into a savings account in 3 years you'll have a min of $360.00 (+interest) which you can use to either fix your computer if something is wrong with it, use it to upgrade components or use it to put it towards a new computer. All without dealing with insurance people.Reply With Quote LOG IN TO THANK No one has yet thanked MrIcu for this post.

Anyway back to the OP - warranties rarely cover accidental damage, so I don't know why you would expect anything here.
The only warranty that covers accidental damage is the CC warranty for the first 90 days.
On a side note - for a cracked laptop screen, your best bet actually is usually to just shop on eBay and buy a new one and swap it yourself. It is usually very simple to do so._______________

Our fist laptop was a no-name brand at Future Shop and we take an extended warranty. The DVD burner broke, the Hard Drive broke.. The laptop have been repaired 3 times I think and each time it have takes weeks! So it have been cheaper for us to take an extended warranty than to repair but it was probably longer to get it repaired than if we've bring it at a local repair shop.
It's old stuff but I remember there was a lot of thing's that the sale guys said us about the warranty that finally was not true, and even on the paper that was not clear or writed.
They was supposed to give you a new laptop after the third reparation but they don't because they said the third one was not include in the ''program''.
They had 6 or 8 weeks to repair a laptop and they always gave us one day before it...Reply With Quote LOG IN TO THANK No one has yet thanked loletifie for this post.

It's all about money. If you're willing to shell out extra for extended warranty then that's your decision. But before you buy it make sure they WRITE down exactly what's covered and under what circumstance.
Coverage isn't the problem, it's the hassle of getting the repair approved and any additional RMA costs like shipping. If you're pulling your hair out then extended warranty isn't worth it.
Obviously every situation is different. But when you see $350 netbooks you understand it's not worth extended coverage. For a Macbook Pro? Sure grab that Apple Care because it'll help you resell it. LCD damage & battery life are major problems with warranty and many companies don't replace it free.
I would spend money on a better carry case & backpack, and charge it on my Visa or MC for free 1 Year extra coverage. It's the same hassle going through your CC company as it is with Futureshop's warranty.Reply With Quote LOG IN TO THANK No one has yet thanked 7jaii for this post.

I always advise people to buy warranties on ANYTHING more fragile and/or subjected to wear & tear. More importantly, look into repair prices before buying a warranty.
Items such as Desktop PCs, which are rarely subjected to any physical stress and if something does go awry, replacement parts are mainly dirt cheap.
Items such as laptops, digital cameras, etc (i.e. portable items subjected to more physical stress) and with highly specialized parts seem to be well worth the deal.
Damn, had I forgone the Applecare on my Macbook, I would be screwed.
1. The HD crashed & was replaced
2. The topcase cracked
3. The DVD RW broke
4. The battery went haywire
5. The topcase cracked (again)
6. The power cord stopped working
7. The screen is starting to have some odd white spots
Although I am amazed at the service & speed of Apple repairs (Bestbuy had my HP for 1.5 months, and even sent it off for repairs slated for some other computer, and that other computer having received the repairs I was due), but damn, I wish they had the 3 strikes or its a lemon policy.Reply With Quote LOG IN TO THANK No one has yet thanked Zug_Zwang for this post.

While most of these who smoke realize medical implications of lighting up, traditional cigarettes can be extremely addictive. These filtered cigarettes are later associated with rapid increases among smokers in circumstances of adenocarcinoma, once a rare form of lung cancer in the periphery from the lung. Diethylene glycol is often a carcinogen, or positivelly dangerous agent.
It is additionally free of any form of tobacco and naturally doesn't contain the deadly carcinogens contained in tobacco. They contend that e-cigarette health hazards are really trivial for regular smokers, who use conventional cigarettes. Well no more worries and cranky feelings of needing that hit of nicotine.
For the legions of cigarette smokers who can't seem to give up, the arrival of e-cigarettes happen to be a godsend. green smoke coupon code. But because the number of choices can be so high, it can be difficult to know how to start when wanting to decide for the choice made in your case. Smokers often suffer from many lung ailments offering emphysema (slow rotting in the lung tissue), bronchitis, chronic obstructive lung disease (COPD), and lastly heart failure.
The same may happen with smokeless cigarettes if we allow it to. All of the patches and gums have unwanted side effects, some of them can easily spark a smoker to prevent trying to use these products. They offer many perks over smoking tobacco.
Likewise, you should think about utilising to give up smoking solutions like smokeless cigarettes, NRT products, all-natural treatments including hypnosis and acupuncture, and plant-based options like lobelia inflata. As I've been looking to make clear, the 2 main sides that have probably the most to lose from your sale of e-cigs are the pharmaceutical companies who sell cessation products along with the big tobacco companies. According to health experts, smoke from cigarettes contains a lot more than 4000 harmful chemicals.
Many of our well know public officials want the devices rated in the similar way as typical tobacco cigarettes. Though they provide the nicotine fill, but still they feel at ease as they tend not to contain any harmful substances which can be associated using the smoke of tobacco cigarettes. The atomizer unscrews through the battery for that battery to be charged and also the cartridge simply slips within the atomizer.
You can smoke anywhere anytime you like. This happens since the users have improved access to professionals and they are supervised and monitored as part from the total harm reduction model. Nowadays, they've got evolved and grow very popular among smokers and widely provided with a variety of flavours under various brands.By sebastian1585wtsyvl

Released: Dec 28th, 2007
Running Time: 145 Min.
Director: Joe Gallant
Company: Bad Seed
Cast: Natasha Stone, Rachel Luv, Lexi Bardot, Laurie Vargas, Dino Bravo, Brian Surewood, Joe Rock, Kelly Wells, Grey
Critical Rating: AAAA
Genre: Feature
Big fun in this one. Director Joe Gallant tells the tale of a young girl's search for thrills that leads to the seamy Hollywood scene. If it seems reminiscent of the plot of any number of '70s exploitation films, it should.
The acting is stiff and stilted as befits this type of movie, which adds to the appeal. And Gallant's decision to mix HD video with Super-8 film and bounce between color and black and white gives a sort of Natural Born Killers aesthetic to the proceedings.
Hopefully, the unique visuals and funny script won't be overlooked despite the amount of product on the market. Oh, yeah, the sex is well shot, too.
Pre-nom: Best Screenplay.
Retailing: Funny, uniquely shot porn that pays homage to '70s exploitation flicks.

To The Editor: Several weeks ago, the Flat Rock Playhouse performance of 1776 deeply moved me. How timely for the playhouse to produce this great revival as our country is divided by those who want a theocratic government rather than a democratic one.
Jefferson's phrase, "All men are created equal," flashed in my memory last week on New York City's streets.
I watched the New York Gay Pride Parade at the corner of Christopher and Gay streets, an area I had visited 50 years ago as a young man just out of college.
Watching the city's police and firemen marching in the gay parade next to Sen. Hillary Clinton brought me to tears. Sen. Clinton walked 50 blocks in the sweltering heat looking strong and powerful, determined to be the next U.S. president.
My gay friend, Andy Tobias, treasurer of the Democratic National Committee, was in the parade, marching with his same sex partner of many years.
I've been invited to attend Camp Wellstone in South Dakota, a progressive political camp named for late Democratic Sen. Paul Wellstone.
I'll attend in order to help turn North Carolina from a theocratic red state to a progressive blue state in the next election.

Pinning an object itself is quite cheap, essentially just pushing a word on stack -- sometimes not even that if the compiler figures out the requisite pointer is on stack anyways. The secondary cost of pinning comes from GC needing to scavenge the entire pinned page, assuming all objects on the page are live. The cost of this depends on a number of factors: if most of those objects would be live anyways, the cost is neglible. If GC doesn't run at all while the object is pinned there is no cost. If the page contains a root of a deep object tree that would otherwise be garbage... that costs. If the pinned object was stack-allocated in the first place, there is no secondary cost. If you pin multiple objects that have been allocated sequentially, the chances that they are all on the same page are good. In this case the secondary cost is paid only once. When pinning is needed the only real option tends to be copying the object to be pinned into immobile memory: where performance is a concern you can always try it both ways and measure the difference. Cheers, -- Nikodemus

Extraction of Speech Transmission Index from Speech Signals Using Artificial Neural Networks
This paper presents a novel method to extract Speech Transmission Index (STI) from reverberated speech utterances using an artificial neural network. The convolutions of anechoic speech signals and simulated impulse responses of rooms of various kinds are used to train the artificial neural network. A time to frequency domain transformation algorithm is proposed as the pre-processor. A multi-layered feed forward neural network trained by back-propagation is adopted. Once trained, the neural network can accurately estimate Speech Transmission Index from speech signals received by a microphone in rooms. This approach utilises a naturalistic sound source, speech, and hence has potential to facilitate occupied measurement.
