We try to make GeorgiaGov as easy as possible for you to find information.
Need help with a Georgia government service? Let us know!
Should state government join the conversation in the world of social media? This was one of the many questions tackled on Tuesday, April 22, 2014 at the latest GOVTalks workshop.
A great way to stay connected with your Georgia government is through social media. Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, Flickr, Instagram, Vine, Pinterest, YouTube — the list could go on and on. Many state agencies are on at least one social platform.
Exploring the wonders of Georgia tourism isn't just for out-of-state guests. Local Georgians can learn about the benefits of tourism too from all platforms of social media.
Team.Georgia.Gov connects Georgia's state employees with information and resources to help state government function more efficiently and retain better talent.
Plan your trip with help from the Georgia Department of Transportation.

Police: Arlington business burglarizedJanuary 04,2014Police say Arlington business burgled
ARLINGTON A local business reported an attempted burglary on Friday morning that left their building damaged, according to Trooper Elliott Justinger.
Justinger said troopers were dispatched to Chem Clean on Route 7A around 12:50 a.m. on Friday
When they arrived, the owner of the store was already there and told police he believed someone forced his main door open. The suspects attempted to remove a safe from the store but were unsuccessful. According to Justinger, there was a set of tire tracks at the scene and two sets of footprints. Damage to the business door was estimated at about $200. Anyone with information is encouraged to call the Shaftsbury barracks of the Vermont State Police at 442-5421.

Funding one's trust is the process of transferring the ownership of property from their personal name to the name of the trustee of their trust. For many people, one of the primary objectives in their estate plan is the avoidance of a court probate process. Unfornately many, if not most, estate plans do not avoid probate because the trust is not funded at all or only partially funded. The video underscores the critical importance of funding one's trust so that the trust will work for their family when they have passed away by, among other things, avoiding the probate process.

Hi all. I'm looking to record a bunch of home videos (VHS) to my computer for editing and burning. But I also want whatever I purchase to be able to record video from my Direct TV (from DVR or live- whichever is possible). I have a PC hooked to my HDTV, so I can use either an internal or external device if one is preferrred.
Will the Hauppauge Colossus be able to handle both tasks, or will the inputs prohibit one or the other?
Thanks in advance for any help.

Hey Eli, this is your favorite Republican protester, Russell Johnson…
You interviewed me for a story on your blog site yesterday at the protest, and I was calling you back to thank you for the story and for the kind pictures. I think it came out pretty well.
But some of your readers who left comments on the blog seem to have an infatuation with anal rape. But other than that, the blog story came out pretty good.
So we just want to thank you for that story, and if you ever want to interview a sensible Republican again, you can just give me a call, my number is 206-XXX-XXXX and anytime you want us to do a full page, or front page story, or anything like that, we can do that for you. So, yeah, just give me a call back sometime, and thanks again for the story on the blog. It was pretty tight. All right, talk to you later, bye.

A Heisman Candidate Listens to His Own Drummer
By LARRY DORMAN
Published: November 26, 1996
GAINESVILLE, Fla.— The scout from the National Football League was watching the passing drill unfold at Florida Field. He was taking notes about every aspect of the Florida Gators, but paying particular attention to the Heisman Trophy candidate and record-setting quarterback, Danny Wuerffel.
Last week was an off week at Florida, without much pressure, and so the scout, Phil Savage of the Baltimore Ravens, had taken his father along for the ride down from Alabama. His dad whistled softly as he watched a tight spiral hiss downfield.
''Man, he can throw that ball,'' the older man said.
''Which guy you looking at, Dad?'' Phil Savage asked.
''That guy right there, No. 12,'' he said, pointing.
''Dad,'' Savage replied, ''Wuerffel's No. 7, the guy over there.''
Underwhelmed, the elder Savage said, ''Oh, yeah, that's him.''
Oh, yeah. Wuerffel, the guy over there. To the untrained eye and sometimes to the trained eye as well, Wuerffel's the guy throwing ordinary looking balls with this sort of shot-put release, sometimes facing his target and making with an unorthodox motion that looks downright funky in comparison to the classic, prototype action of Doug Johnson, No. 12, a freshman.
Of course, on game day, most of Wuerffel's passes arrive right on time, just as the receivers come off their break. The balls are thrown to the correct man, at precise points, usually in full stride.
That is why on Saturday afternoons, the kid with the prototype action takes a seat on the bench, watching and learning as the man with the unusual motion continues to rewrite the record books and whip Florida toward a date with its second straight national championship game.
Substance over style. That is the signature of Danny Wuerffel, 22, writ large on stadium floors across America for the past two seasons.
He is the career National Collegiate Athletic Association passing efficiency leader, the career leader in ratio of passes to touchdowns, the holder of virtually every Southeastern Conference and University of Florida passing record worth noting. He has a total of 105 touchdown passes, second on the career list to Ty Detmer's 121. That is one touchdown pass for every 10.3 attempts -- wobbly, soft or otherwise. Wuerffel gets his work done quickly and efficiently. He has to. So far in Florida's 10-0 season, he has worked a full game just three times. In six of those victories, he played little more than a half.
Rarely have appearances been so deceiving. With his modest demeanor, his baby face, his cowlicky hair, he might not look it, but he will probably be posing at the Downtown Athletic Club with the Heisman Trophy when it's all been said and done.
The numbers have already said it. He is 31-2-1 as a starter. His average completion goes for 17.5 yards. He has 30 touchdown passes against 8 interceptions. Some voters might be waiting to judge his performance in Saturday's game against Florida State -- No. 1 Florida versus No. 2 F.S.U. in this year's version of the game of the century -- but many saw all they needed to see when he threw four touchdown passes in the Tennessee game and outshone the Vols' Peyton Manning. Again.
Not that Wuerffel cares either way. There is more to the unorthodoxy of this young man than merely his passing motion. He is a star without ego. He might be the only athlete in America who does not look for his television replays because he does not watch ''SportsCenter'' on ESPN. Totally aware, smart enough to carry a 3.75 grade point average, Wuerffel cannot name the top five Heisman candidates.
''Really, the Heisman falls under the category of things I can't control,'' Wuerffel said, ''so I don't worry about that. People don't believe it when I say it, but I haven't been sitting around thinking about it, don't get caught up in it. I haven't read hardly any newspapers. It's not a big priority for me, to be honest.''
Other things are priorities. The son of a son of a preacher, Wuerffel signs every autograph, says ''sir'' and ''ma'am,'' runs a Bible study at his home every Tuesday and runs a Fellowship of Christian Athletes meeting every Wednesday as president. He never cuts class, never cuts anyone down and never contradicts his coach even when Steve Spurrier gets in his face on the sideline or admonishes him on some minor point.
Like on this matter of being too available, too accommodating. Spurrier wants him to just say no. Wuerffel, well, he just can't. He simply refuses to hurt people's feelings. This might be the only thing that annoys the coach about his player.
''He's just too nice a guy, just way too nice,'' said Spurrier, who 30 years ago became the only Florida player (so far) to win the Heisman. ''I've been telling him that I'm trying to relieve him of all these autographs and things. I told him the other day, 'Danny if I'm there on campus and people ask me to sign something I just tell 'em I won't sign now and if they want to come by the office and leave it there I'll do it when I can.'
''People might say, 'That Coach Spurrier, he's such a jerk.' But that's O.K. That doesn't bother me. I tell Danny he's just got to learn to say no, but he won't do it. I can be a jerk. He can never be a jerk.''
On that last point, there is no dispute. But Wuerffel can say no. For example, he said no to Playboy magazine's award as the 1996 National Scholar Athlete of the year.
''It was a very simple thing for me, really,'' Wuerffel said. ''No big deal at all. The things I'm trying to do with my life, to glorify God, that just wasn't a way for me to do it.''

Life Costume Mania
posted by October 26 at 14:58 PMon
My husband and no doubt countless of you are still in need of a great Halloween costume. I'll trade you four of my easiest ideas for one of yours…
Bird Nut: Take an old jacket or sweatshirt and spill white and gray paint down the shoulders and arms to resemble bird crap. Get various fake birds from the craft store and staple them to the shoulders of the jacket. Save one to wire to a headband or hat. Wear mismatched layers and put binoculars around your neck. Fill your pockets with birdseed and sprinkle some in your hair. Talk to your birds and to yourself.
Man/Woman in the Wind: Wear a tie and attach wire to the back so you can bend it over your shoulder. Staple leaves and scraps of paper to one side of your body and gel your hair to the other side. Carry an umbrella turned inside out and walk with effort as if you're in a windstorm.
A Sailor: Get a jaunty white cap and dress whites, or a striped pullover and blue pants, at an army/navy surplus store. Wear black boots and a smile.
Dan Savage: Print a mask and add well-worn light-blue jeans with holey knees, a solid black T-shirt, and tennis shoes. Carry a bike helmet and a Stranger.

Joseph's Bones
Understanding the Struggle between God and Mankind in the Bible
Jerome M. Segal
Riverhead, $15, 320 pp.
Jews and Christians read the Bible differently. Though we study the same stories, we bring to them different histories. Do we also bring divergent ideas of God?
When I attend interreligious Bible studies, what always startles me is how comfortable many Jews are with questioning, challenging, even impugning God's moral character. Consider the climactic account of Abraham and Isaac. Jews call it the akedah or "binding" of Isaac; Christians usually call it the "sacrifice" of Isaac. Christians tend to emphasize the faith of Abraham or the self-sacrificial demeanor of Isaac (he's so "Christlike"). Jews often put God in the dock: How could God allow the killing of a beloved son? (Christians collectively gulp.)
But I must confess that I feel jealous of the Jewish response to the story—what if God were not morally perfect? What if, in the struggle of wills between God and humanity, we had something to teach God about morality? What if God needed people to help God be God?
Christians, on the whole, have been less prone to ask these questions owing to their theological history. In the early centuries of Christianity, the Christian conception of God became intertwined with a Platonic philosophical conception of the Good. The Good God was beyond reproach and existed immutably in the realm of pure being, transcending this imperfect realm of becoming. In order to...

I'm running into this problem, could you give me a pointer where to start troubleshooting?
What actions are you performing when this error happens?
I see this error every time I use the Clear All link from the admin bar.
I've been using varnishlog like so:
varnishlog -x CLI -x Backend_health -m 'RxRequest:PURGE', to try and catch the request that results in this error, but haven't found anything weird yet.
The plugin source code reveals that in certain cases you might end-up with a "Could not clear cache" error even though the required object is purged successfully.
The plugin expects one of the two return codes from Varnish, either "200 OK" or "200 Purged". If your VCL returns a different message to the PURGE operation, you'll get this error.
To fix this, you should update your VCL and only issue either "200 OK" or "200 Purged" responses to PURGE requests.
I don't know if this is your issue, but it certainly caused me to scratch my head.

Genre: Jazz
The most famous jazz musician since 1980, Wynton Marsalis had a major impact on jazz almost from the start. In the early '80s, it was major news that a young and very talented black musician would choose to make a living playing acoustic jazz rather than fusion, funk, or R&B. Marsalis' arrival on the scene started the "Young Lions" movement and resulted in major labels (most of whom had shown no interest in jazz during the previous decade) suddenly signing and promoting young players.

EU Emissions in 2010 Rose for the First Time in Three Years
Emissions from factories and power stations in the European Union carbon market rose 3.5 percent last year as freezing weather boosted energy consumption, according to preliminary data.
Emissions increased to 1.754 billion metric tons in 2010, the first gain in three years, from 1.695 billion tons for the same installations in 2009, according to data published today on the EU website. While the advance exceeded the 2.7 percent median estimate of nine analysts surveyed last month by Bloomberg, EU carbon prices were little changed today.
"The numbers give us no cause to revise our price forecast for the coming years," Trevor Sikorski, a London-based analyst at Barclays Plc, said today in a note to investors. The EU market has surplus allowances of about 455 million tons for the five years ending in 2012, he estimates, so slightly higher-than-forecast 2010 emissions are "neither here nor there."
The latest figures show that the EU allocated more permits than emitters needed for 2010. The program had an oversupply amounting to 1.9 percent of the total in 2010, down from 4.8 percent in 2009. About 13,000 participants in the six-year-old EU program, the world's biggest greenhouse gas market, are required to turn in permits to match the carbon figures published today, or face a fine of 100 euros ($142) a ton.
Carbon permits for December fell 0.3 percent to 17.23 euros a ton on London's ICE Futures Europe exchange as of 5:30 p.m. They have jumped 21 percent this year, helped by speculation that demand for fossil fuels and emission allowances will increase as Europe reduce its reliance on reactors in the wake of this month's nuclear disaster in Japan.
Power Industry
EU emissions from the power industry rose 0.4 percent in 2010, excluding facilities that distribute heat, according to an estimate from Bloomberg New Energy Finance in London based on today's data. That compares with its forecast of 0.3 percent.
The economic recession curbed EU emissions by 11 percent in 2009. The recovering economy and cold weather helped boost output last year. December was the coldest on record in the U.K., according to the Met Office. France temperatures were 3.1 degrees Celsius (5.6 Fahrenheit) below average in January last year, according to the nation's electricity grid operator.
The preliminary EU emissions figures, which are 90 percent complete, follow yesterday's report from the U.K. showing its emissions, including those not under the EU program, rose 2.8 percent in 2010, the biggest gain in at least two decades.
German factories and power stations in the carbon market boosted emissions by 6 percent, while those in Poland rose 4.4 percent. Installations in Portugal and Spain had the biggest declines, 15 percent and 12 percent respectively.
German Reactors
EU emissions may rise at 3.6 percent this year, according to the Bloomberg survey of analysts. Germany closed seven reactors following radiation leaks at Japan's Fukushima Dai-Ichi plant. That will probably increase burning of fossil fuels in the bloc.
Verified emissions were below the cap in the European trading system, known as the ETS, for the fifth year out of the six, Sandbag, a London-based climate lobby group, said in an e-mailed statement.
"Europe's flagship climate policy has great potential, but it currently risks becoming an environmental hindrance," Damien Morris, senior policy adviser, said in the e-mail. "If politicians have the courage to tighten the cap, then the ETS could help pave the way for a low-carbon Europe."
The iron and steel sector has accrued a 212 million-ton surplus of allowances so far because the bloc's governments gave away too many permits, Sandbag estimated. Those allowances are worth about 3.4 billion euros at current prices, equivalent to Europe's annual financial support for renewable power, according to the statement.
Sikorski of Barclays said the ETS is succeeding in reducing emissions. The EU report for 2010 shows power-sector emissions rose at 2.1 percent, while consumption of electricity increased 2.6 percent, he said. "The EU emissions trading system is greening the EU."

Are there any combinations of characters in the original Maniac Mansion which make the game impossible to finish?
I don't believe so. Certain combinations will probably make it harder, but it seems you generally only should need 1 character's special skill to beat the game; Dave and the third character can just be bodies to do stuff everyone can do.
I am extrapolating based on info from this walkthrough which has instructions for beating the game using each character's special skill, and simply calls your third character "your third kid."
The walkthroughs do mention to not choose both Syd and Razor (because their skills are the same) but they still don't conclude that the game will be unbeatable with them.
That said, killing off one of your characters could easily make the game impossible.
In Maniac Mansion, you need a single Kid's skill to get past certain obstacles (mainly Purple Tentacle) and you need at least two kids to win for most of the game.
So as long as you have one kid with a skill you can get past purple tentacle, and as long as you have one additional kid you can finish the game (for stuff like pushing the gargoyle, prank calling Edna to get to the safe, ringing the doorbell to get into Weird Ed's room etc.)
Dave and Jeff do not have any important skills, and are the only characters who do not have a way of getting past Purple Tentacle. But even if you have Jeff and Dave in your party, your third character will have a way of getting past him. Michael Stum's answer has done a good job of outlining how each of the other characters can get past.
Only Bernard and Jeff are able to fix the phone in the library, which is needed to call Edna. (This is Jeff's only special skill!) But it is possible to distract Edna without the phone, simply by sending a character into her room to get caught, which buys you some time to send in another character while she returns from the dungeon.

Sure, but the issue is accessing the new overlay without making direct edits to classes that define the player.
It does. Forgot to update the first post, haha.Quote from andrewdonshik
Wait, so does metal rods work in SMP or not?
Ah, I didn't mean to discourage you. You don't have to worry about making suggestions (here especially) if you don't understand the code behind them. For example, you could still ask for a swimming pool even if you couldn't give your contractor any technical advice on how to build itQuote from Grugsy
so, much more complicated than it seems. this is why I try not to make suggestions in modding threads...lol

I seem to be having a bug with the latest better blocks&items mods where the default stairs take precedent over the new stairs when crafting them from their related blocks, specifically the sandstone and stone brick variants. I'm sure I'm missing something somewhere, but there's no ID conflicts with the other mods I have installed and I uninstalled mods to see if they were inherently conflicting.

I can't thank you enough for the Useful Storage mod, it's saved me so much space in my valuables chest.
I wondered if you could come up with a block storage for rotten flesh and seeds though? Those are the other ones that I have chests full of, but nothing to do with them. I have no idea what seed blocks could do for the side effect, but here's an old idea for rotten flesh blocks.
Honestly though, I personally don't care if they "do" anything, I just want a more compact way to store them. I have 2 crystal chests (IronChests mod) for seeds and 3 for rotten flesh. x.x

I'm having a couple of problems with my blog which I hope you guys can help me out with.
1. My latest post's pictures seems to be overlapping the sidebar. I've tried to post bigger images but they seem to fit within the post once I preview them, it's just these particular pictures. Does anyone know why they do that?
2. I don't know if it's only me, but the post title doesn't seem to be in line with the pictures below it even though they're both centered. The title seems to be placed more to the left for some reason. Does anyone know why?
This is my blogaddress http://www.evan-mode.com
And I'm using the theme Twenty Eleven
Would really appreciate your help
