Skip to comments.Al Qaeda suspect's porn film found to contain treasure trove of secret documents
Posted on 05/04/2012 1:18:22 PM PDT by Red Badger
A suspected member of the Al Qaeda terrorist group, arrested in May last year in Germany, was found with a memory stick hidden in his underwear. Police discovered the stick contained a password-protected folder with pornographic videos inside it, but suspicious computer forensic experts thought there must be more. After weeks of analysis, they determined that one of the pornographic videos contained concealed documents detailing Al Qaeda operations and plans.
The files were hidden in the video file through a process called steganography or concealed writing. The term steganography includes methods used for centuries, such as invisible ink, but now also includes techniques such as concealing (often unencrypted) content inside a digital image, video or audio file. Steganography conceals data within plain sight, which makes it difficult to detect.
Digital steganography can be done on audio files by manipulating the waveform to hide data, but such changes produce noise that is more obvious than changes visible to the eye. Data can be hidden in image files opened in a text editor simply by inserting text at the end of the file, but more sophisticated and effective methods use special software to manipulate individual bytes or pixels of the media file.
For example, readily available software can be used to manipulate the properties of individual pixels within an image. The color of pixels is determined by vector values representing the intensity of each color (red, green and blue in RGB systems, for example), and these values can be manipulated to hide data.
Other steganographic software tools convert bytes of data to be concealed into individual binary bits (0 and 1) that are then substituted for the least significant bits in the media file. The substitutions are spread throughout the media file following a sequence or algorithm, to make detection more difficult and distortion of the media file less noticeable.
Another, even more sophisticated method is to manipulate the discrete cosine transform coefficients (DCTs) used to compress JPEG files to hide date into parts of an image. This method enables the hidden data to survive even if the image is later cropped, resized or compressed.
The forensic task of revealing data hidden within files is complicated because the area is rapidly developing and becoming ever more sophisticated, but security programs are available that can help researchers detect manipulations within images and other digital files.
The researchers from the German Federal Criminal Police (BKA), spent many weeks examining the hidden pornographic video found on suspected Al Qaeda member, the Austrian Maqsood Lodin, when he was arrested in Berlin after returning from Pakistan. The video, called Kick Ass, was stored in a password-protected folder and within the video they found a file called Sexy Tanja. Further analysis of this file eventually revealed that it contained more than 100 concealed unencrypted documents describing Al Qaeda plans and operations.
A video file has ample room for concealing documents, and would be relatively easy to distribute. In Maqsood Lodins memory stick, the porn video contained hidden terrorist training manuals in pdf form in English, German and Arabic, along with numerous documents detailing planned future Al Qaeda attacks, and lessons learned from previous operations.
Lodin is currently on trial in Berlin, and has pleaded not guilty to charges of terrorism.
Now that's funny in itself...
I'm not surprised at this: a similar method showed up in the early seasons of "NCIS".
Some guys will claim disability after a year....forcing the government to give them early retirement.
They already do that.
They'll just use this to claim it's "work-related".
I would write essays on my autocad drawings...then rescale the essay so it wasn't much more than a dot on a 2'x3' drawing.
I read somewhere that a good number of computer viruses spread by downloaded porn - reason #297 to avoid them :-)
And this info would be not available had a Predator / Reaper just "eliminated" the targeted with an AGM-114 HellFire
Disability?......Carpal Tunnel Syndrome?...........Blindness or Hairy Palms?........
This seems strange. Most stego packages have built-in crypto, so even if the files are detected they can't be read.
Clever, those Germans..........
"Is that a memory stick in your pocket, or are you just glad to see me?";)
I bet they are still there..........
I have often thought that volunteers allowing their computers to be used to search for intelligent life in images, much as a lot of people do, or did, with the SETI project, would be a good idea.
Except for the wee bit about trusting those who would run such a program with access to their computers... and that we might find ourselves wanting to use steganography one day...
I suppose I can assume at this point that there are dedicated computers out there, steadily crunching every image on the web to see what may be hiding in them.
Surprisingly, a lot of stego programs, or users, do not encrypt first.
re: now the tsa will be watching... I thought they already were, compliments of backscatter technology, except for when a 2-D image just isn't enough.
I can just imagine the CTC going through hours of goat porn to find the hidden files.
So is this:
The researchers from the German Federal Criminal Police (BKA), spent many weeks examining the hidden pornographic video...
Yes, I am screaming: THIS TYPE OF INFORMATION SHOULD NOT BE RELEASED. TOP SECRET! LOOSE LIPS SINK SHIPS! WHOSE SIDE IS OUR GOVERNMENT ON?
Maqsood Lodin said..."Honest, I was just holding it for a friend."
No wonder it's called a "thumb drive"...
Now they're really gonna be motivated..............

Exploring a Spatial Thinking Curriculum for Higher Education
Diana S. Sinton, Director of Spatial Curriculum and Research
University of Redlands, California
In mid-December, 2012, about 45 people gathered in Santa Barbara, California, to talk about spatial thinking in higher education. This 2-day specialist meeting was conceived of and organized by SILC and the Center for Spatial Studies (spatial@ucsb) at the University of California, Santa Barbara. Spatial@ucsb is dedicated to promoting campus-wide spatially related events, research, and teaching for all disciplines that share interest in the importance of spatial thinking in science and in artistic endeavors, the development of spatial analytic tools, and the importance of place in society. The meeting was also supported by Esri, the world's largest GIS software company.
The call for participation in the meeting included the following statement of purpose.
There is now convincing evidence that spatial abilities are related to both success and participation in STEM disciplines. More generally, there is an increasing recognition of the importance of spatiality as a unifier of academic disciplines, including the social sciences, arts, and humanities, sometimes referred to as a "spatial turn." But it is also widely acknowledged that spatial thinking is not fostered in our educational system and that current practice depends more on selection of the most able students for spatially demanding disciplines than on fostering the spatial intelligence of all students….An overarching goal [of this meeting] will be to prioritize a research agenda to evaluate current approaches to spatial education, fill gaps in our knowledge, and consider how a curriculum in spatial thinking can best be implemented at the college level.
The meeting featured plenary presentations by experts on the challenges of spatial thinking in different disciplines, cognitive analyses of spatial thinking processes, and current best practices in educating spatial thinking. In smaller breakout sessions, disciplinary experts, cognitive scientists, and college administrators worked together to identify the current state of our understanding of spatial thinking, gaps in our knowledge, and priorities for both research and practice in educating spatial thinkers at the college level. The majority of participants were psychologists, geographers, and geographic information scientists, together with a few learning scientists, social scientists, and humanities scholars.
Despite the variety of disciplinary backgrounds, participants largely supported the idea that spatial thinking approaches would enhance and enrich learning experiences across higher education. However, several challenges inhibit the implementation of such an ambitious goal, including the cross disciplinary nature of spatial thinking, the increasing constraints on public funding for education, an expanding emphasis on online courses, and the competition with other, better-known approaches to improving the college curriculum, such as through critical thinking or quantitative reasoning initiatives.
In order to make the case for space, the group recognized four sets of future needs: 1) basic research, even on what is meant by spatial thinking; 2) developing methods for teaching spatial thinking; 3) research on teaching spatial thinking, including assessments of what is learned from programs that aim to teach spatial thinking; 4) and documenting and demonstrating where and how spatial thinking prepares students for academic success, allows them to better compete in the job market and global economy, and, perhaps most important but more difficult to measure, how "spatial habits of mind" are developed.
Over the course of the meeting, it became clear that we were much better at identifying questions and obstacles than answers and simple paths forward. However, building community around a series of common goals makes such multi-disciplinary, face-to-face meetings highly valuable. We learned about the ways in which some institutions are linking spatial thinking with their General Education requirements or organizing curricular "minors" that include clusters of spatially-related content. We revisited the ways in which computer technologies support or hinder spatial learning, recognizing that the emerging preponderance of online GIS, for example, changes the playing field. We imagined the idea of a spatial thinking MOOC (massive open online course), not knowing at the time that Penn State University was only weeks away from announcing one on Maps and the Geospatial Revolution. Which would have given us a chance to discuss why and how a spatial thinking MOOC might differ!
Brief position papers are available from most of the meeting participants at the conference website. A comprehensive final report of the event is now available at the site too.

Hangover Sports Roundup
Mexico surprises U.S., Kongo beats Berry in amazing UFC comeback
2011 Gold Cup
Soccer has gained more mainstream coverage within American sports the last couple of years—Team U.S.A. had relative success in the 2010 World Cup and there's been a growing interest in Major League Soccer. So when the United States faced Mexico in the finals of the Gold Cup, the U.S. was poised to give American soccer some much needed creditability. 93,420 fans filled the Rose Bowl in Pasadena, Calif., to witness the U.S gain a quick two goal lead. But Mexico turned up the pressure and overwhelmed the U.S with four unanswered goals to capture the title, 4-2. Along with the loss, many of the fans were rooting for Mexico, jeering the Americans with insults throughout the match. While Mexico earned a birth in the 2013 Confederations Cup, the U.S will look for answers to improve in time for the 2012 Olympic Games.
UFC on Versus
There was little excitement surrounding the original main event of Nate Marquardt versus Rick Story. And on Saturday afternoon the main event fell apart after Maquardt failed his medical tests. Then UFC President Dana White fired him and named Charlie Brenneman as the last second replacement. Despite all the troubles with this card, the fights delivered some awesome finishes. Former NFL standout Matt Mitrione KO'd Christian Morecraft and Brenneman pulled off the upset by earning the decision against Story. Pat Berry and Cheick Kongo moved into the main event and delivered one of the best comebacks in the history of MMA. Berry caught Kongo with a series of punches and almost finished him, but the referee didn't stop the fight. Eventually Kongo gained his composure just enough to nail Berry and win the fight. The comeback victory could give Kongo some momentum to make one more run at the heavyweight title.

At times, I still find myself surprised by some of the things I come across. For instance, did you know that Newsweek magazine is still around?
Who knew?
I thought they went the way of hoop skirts and coherent liberals. I couldn't believe Newsweek still had a pulse. And it didn't take long to discover that they are still as vapid as they ever were.
Take a recent article posted at their blog, "The Gaggle."
The headline alone speaks for itself.
Does Killing Terrorists Actually Prevent Terrorism?
As tempting as it is to pull that plum off the tree and woof it down, the real fruit of the post in inside.
Chasing terrorists in Waziristan with missiles clearly is not going to end, or definitively win, the "War on Terrorism," and whether we should think about a diplomatic rapprochement with these groups instead of fighting an endless war with them is a legitimate question. If the U.S. could avoid war with the Soviet Union, a.k.a. the "Evil Empire," why not Al Qaeda or the Taliban?
To begin with, the headline asks the wrong question.
Killing terrorists clearly – definitionally – prevents terrorism. But it doesn't prevent all terrorism. No one ever said it did. And the fact that all terrorists will not be eliminated by this country's continuing efforts to wipe out as many of these thugs as possible doesn't mean that it's time to scrap that approach and invite Al Qaeda to lunch for a heaping helping of falafel and tea.
Should the police quit doing their job because there will always be criminals? Should law enforcement sit down and try to come to mutual understandings with child rapists and cold-blooded murderers?
We continue to fight the war – on all fronts – because we must. And that includes killing as many of the enemy as possible.
That's because the only way to stop those who idealize and pray for death is to give them exactly what they want before they can take any innocents with them.
Second, the United States avoided direct war with the Soviet Union because the Reds did not crave death as do the followers of radical Islam. The USSR was not a suicidal regime. The Soviets truly wanted to expand their evil empire and sphere of influence. They were a genuine nation with borders, a constitution, a standing army and a leader. And they believed that an all out nuclear war with United States would result in mutually assured destruction. They certainly didn't want that. They wanted to survive; not find ways to make it to the afterlife for a cabana full of virgins.
Third, whereas throughout all of human existence nations who have been defeated in war surrender to the victor, the current battle against Islamo-fascism is unlike any we have ever fought. There is no nation of Islamo-Fascist-Land with defined borders, a constitution and a standing uniformed army who will wave a white flag when handed a major military setback (like the killing of a terrorist leader). Islamo-facists exist in all countries. They live in caves as well as inner-cities. They exist in terrorist training camps and among us. They can be our neighbors or those charged to defend this country. They fight on the battlefield and shelter themselves in civilian neighborhoods. They target innocents and do not compromise. And because they don't fear death – they revere it – they have an advantage no enemy of the United States has ever had.
That anyone can honestly ask the question, given the endless amount of examples of the nature of Islamo-terrorism, why Al Qaeda and the Taliban cannot be reasoned with is still astounding.

Three more K-Wings players have been called up the AHL, which is no surprise considering that the NHL lockout has ended and there is plenty of player movement going on between the NHL, AHL and ECHL. Forward Alexandre Mallet has been reassigned by the Vancouver Canucks to the Chicago Wolves of the AHL while the Wolves have called up forward Alexandre Grenier and defenseman John Negrin. In 17 games with the K-Wings, Mallet has scored five goals and five assists with a plus/minus of zero. Grenier made an immediate impact in his three games with the K-Wings by notching three assists and a plus four. Negrin, who has been with the K-Wings since the season began, has played in 32 games scoring one goal and adding three assist with a plus/minus -9. In other transactions, the K-Wings signed forward Brain Bicek and Jeff Pierce, both former members of the Western Michigan University hockey team. The pair both played for the Missouri Mavericks of the CHL before signing with the K-Wings. The K-Wings also signed defenseman Leland Fidler and forward Jeremy Tucker. Forward Kory Karlander was placed on the IR.
Kibbles and Sticks Night
The K-Wings are hosting a bring your dog to the game night this Wednesday, January 16th as they face-off against the Elmira Jackals at 7:00 pm. For $5 fans can purchase a ticket for their dog and bring them to the game, with the proceeds going to the Animal Rescue Project.
5th Annual McDonalds Golden Ice Game is this Saturday
The 5th Annual Golden Ice Game is this Saturday night as the K-Wings take on the Fort Wayne Komets at 7:30 pm. The K-Wings will be wearing a McDonald's themed jersey that will be auctioned off following the game with a portion of the proceeds going to the Ronald McDonald House of West Michigan.
The game is also a "WIN-WIN" night. If the K-Wings defeat the Komets, all fans in attendance will receive a FREE ticket to the Sunday, January 27th home game versus the Western Conference Bakersfield Condors.

This study is expected to take approximately 12 months to accrue participants and complete all the interviews. The interview will be conducted in one or two sessions and will be up to two hours in duration per session.
The study will initially be conducted at three ATN clinical sites with approximately 20 females recruited per site for a total of 60 participants. Other ATN clinical sites may be allowed to participate in the future if the study is slow to accrue.
The participants consist of English speaking women, ages 18-24 years, who acquired HIV through heterosexual intercourse or injection drug use after the age of 9 years, reported a history of sexual and/or physical abuse prior to age 18, and engaged in vaginal or anal intercourse in the 4 months prior to screening.
Approximately half of the participants will report a recent history of substance use as defined by study criteria and approximately half of the participants will report no such history.
Eligible patients will be identified and screened by the ATN research staff at the participating sites. The Protocol Chair and trained Research Assistant will conduct the open-ended qualitative interviews using an open-ended script. The interview will be audio-taped and transcribed. Prior to the open-ended script interview, participants will be asked about Posttraumatic Stress Disorder symptoms, abuse history, substance use, sexual behavior, and demographics. Responses to these questions will not be audio-taped and will be entered into the ATN 053 database by the ATN site staff.

An interesting concept he starts out with is that of progressive disclosure. Progressive disclosure is the act of hiding lesser used functions of a program behind a button, a menu, or something similar. This may seem straightforward, but it brings with it two dangers; as a programmer, you need to know which functions are used less often while at the same time not taking this concept too far, which will only make the application more complex instead of less.
Walkin offers a very good example of progressive disclosure gone awry: the Internet Explorer user interface. When in its default state, with Windows Live installed, this interface has a staggering 17 disclosure points. I've personally harped on Internet Explorer often for its poor interface, but I've always put off writing a more detailed article about it. With this article, Walkin puts the finger on one of the problem points.
Another issue he points out in Windows 7 is the lack of consistency with the print button. Because Microsoft has a fetish for removing the menubar from their applications, they need to find new places for commonly accessed features - such as printing. If you browse around the default set of applications and windows in Windows 7, you'll see that the print button jumps all over the place, and because there's no menubar, you can't rely on that either to find the print option.
Another aspect Walkin touches on is that of alignment and visual hierarchy. The ideal is to align user interface elements as much as possible, and to employ a thoughtfully laid out grid. By comparing the inspectors in Microsoft Expression Blend and Adobe Lightroom, and making the element alignments visible, he shows quite convincingly just why exactly the Microsoft variant looks so cluttered and overwhelming.
There's a lot more thoughtful stuff in there, so if you're working on an interface, or you've always wondered why a certain application looked cluttered to you, but you could never put your finger on it - this article could provide some answers.

Roger Espinoza (Kansas City)
He grew up in the Honduran harbor city of Puerto Cortes, playing pickup games in the street and on bumpy dirt fields. But until he was 12 years old, when his family of eight moved to Colorado, Roger Espinoza never played on an organized team.
Colorado Storm coach Rafael Amaya, recognizing an exceptional talent, took Espinoza, who spoke no English upon his arrival, under his wing, guided him to a private school and on to a successful college career.
"I didn't know anything about junior college or Division I," Espinoza said. "He [Amaya] is the one who would tell coaches you need to ask this guy to come play for you. They never saw me play, but they took me because Rafael recommended me."
Espinoza helped Yavapai College and Ohio State to junior college and Division I national championship runner-up finishes, respectively.
"Playing on bad fields in Honduras really helped me with skills," he says. "When I came here and played on fields where the ball doesn't bounce away, it was easy to control it really well."
Espinoza had the kind of skills most coaches would recognize as optimal for a central midfield playmaker, but Amaya figured Espinoza would go farther if he developed into a more diverse player, so he started the left-footer out at left back, then moved him into the left side of midfield.
"Kids like that love to be the No. 10," says Amaya. "But if a young player gets to the pros and can only play in the middle, his chances of breaking in are slim."
Espinoza worked odd jobs and was a constant help on fund-raisers to finance his youth soccer expenses. His mother is a chef at a casino and his father works construction, but he was out of work for three years after an on-job injury that broke his leg in 27 places.
"I went pro because it's always been my dream and because my family needs the money," says Roger, who signed a Generation adidas contract with one year of college eligibility left.
PATEDORES AGAIN SUPPLY No. 1 PICK
Chance Myers (Kansas City)
PATEDORES AGAIN SUPPLY No. 1 PICK
For the second straight year, the MLS Draft's No. 1 pick came out of Southern California youth club Pateadores. Maurice Edu earned 2007 Rookie of the Year honors playing for Toronto. Now Chance Myers, picked by the Kansas City Wizards, aims to make an impact in the pros after playing two seasons at UCLA.
Edu and Myers played for Pateadores coach Mike Gartland, who also serves as their agent through Proactive Sports Management, although Edu was on an older team. Myers played with Edu's brother, Reggie, who plays at the University of Evansville.
Steve Shak, the top MLS pick in 2000, also played for the Pateadores.
Myers moved into a defensive position when he arrived at Pateadores after playing center midfield and forward for So Cal United.
"The team had a different structure and Mike Gartland put me at right back," says Myers. "But I love to get forward. I love to combine with the right mid, center mid and forward."
Myers says he was totally surprised to be the No. 1 pick ("I'd be happy going last"), but then he's long underestimated himself.
The first time he went to a traveling team tryout, after playing AYSO, he stayed in the car figuring he didn't have a chance until a coach cajoled him to the field.
"After Edu, I feel some responsibility to live up to being selected," says Myers. "But I am just looking to do what I can do."
Ciaran O'Brien (Colorado)
His father's long professional career ended a couple of years before Ciaran O'Brien was born, but he still got plenty of early exposure to the pro game, thanks to his older brother, Leighton, a star of the USL-1's Seattle Sounders.
As a teen, Ciaran hung around with the Sounders and at times trained with them.
"Being around the game with my brother, being in the locker room with the Sounders - the guys were all my mentors -- it shows what a young guy has to do to make it in professional soccer," says Ciaran, who played two years of college ball, at the University of San Diego and UC Santa Barbara. "Now it's down to me."
(Ciaran's older sister Erika played college ball at Florida's Barry University.)
Leighton, 12 years Ciaran's senior, was league MVP with Seattle in 2002 and helped them win titles in 2005 and 2007. Ciaran and Leighton were coached by their father, Fran, an Irishman who played seven seasons in the North American Soccer League and whose three caps for Ireland included an appearance against England at Wembley.
"Everyone says if I'm as good as my dad was," Ciaran says, "I'll be a great pro. And that's the goal."
Fran was a busy, skillful midfielder who scored 32 goals in 175 NASL games after arriving in the league from Irish club Bohemians in 1978.
"Ciaran's a different player than I was or than his brother," says Fran. "but he's a midfielder who scores goals, and that's one of his greatest attributes."
Brek Shea (FC Dallas)
Asked about her son skipping college to enter pro soccer, Kirstin Shea-Brekken quickly interjects: "Delaying, not skipping."
Brek Shea, 17, was the second pick in MLS's 2008 SuperDraft, which he entered after changing his mind about attending Wake Forest University.
"The decision wasn't that hard for my dad," says Brek. "My mom, it took her a while." Charles and Kirstin are professor and senior lecturer, respectively, in Texas A&M's Department of Health & Kinesiology.
"It's very tough for me, especially," said Kirstin. "But I didn't realize he was playing at such a high level. I think he knows he's going to go to school later on."
FC Dallas-bound Shea, a 6-foot-3 defender/midfielder who left home at age 15 to join the U.S. Soccer's U-17 Residency Program in Bradenton, Fla., shone at the MLS Combine before the draft.
Growing up in College Station, Texas, Shea had to commute to Houston to play elite club ball for the Texans, which he joined at age 11 after starting out with local club Brazos Magic. It was a 90-mile drive each way, up to three times a week for practice, plus games on weekends. Charles did the driving.
"Brek would do homework on the way down and sleep on the way back," says Kirstin. "The hardship was on my husband, but he loved it. He was very supportive from day 1."
Brek played baseball, swam and was on his high school football team before joining the Bradenton residency program.
"The first word he said was ball," says Kirstin. "His very first word. Before mom. He always liked to kick a ball around. He excelled at lots of sports, but had a passion for soccer early on."

Titans released him. Quite a few teams seem interested, including the 49ers (please no, not because I'm afraid but because there shall be no red and gold to taint his blue and green soul). Anyone else think it would be awesome if he came back as our backup to finish his career? He clearly still loves Seattle, so maybe he'd come cheap.

GAFFNEY, SC - The No. 3 Limestone Saints (17-0) continued its unbeaten season with a 16-8 victory in the Conference Carolinas Championship game over No. 8 Pfeiffer (13-4) on a warm and sunny Saturday afternoon. The team's entered play as the top two seeds in the Conference Tournament and easily advanced past the semifinal round but the host Saints were too much for Pfeiffer on this day. Conference Player of the Year Sarah Oor finished the afternoon with nine points as she scored four goals and handed out five assists to be propel her team to the NCAA Tournament.
Limestone came out firing on all cylinders on their home turf. Katie Farrell scored the first of five consecutive goals in the opening 5:57 of play as Limestone surged ahead. Sarah Daly stopped the hosts' goal streak at the 22:14 mark of the first half. Less than three minutes later, Haley Gourdie took a pass from Stephanie Athens to convert on the player advantage and cut Limestone's lead to 5-2. However, Limestone responded with back-to-back goals before senior Kristina Anderson scored her eighth goal of the season to make the score 7-3.
Jessica Aguanno beat goalkeeper Cassidy Wilson at the 14:17 mark of the first half to push Limestone's lead to back to five. The Saints extended the lead to 9-3 with less than 10 minutes to go. In the half's final moments, Limestone controlled the ball with 20 seconds to play behind Pfeiffer's goal. With under one second to go, Keirsten MacLellan found a streaking Oor who scored her third goal of the half to give Limestone a 10-3 lead.
Limestone continued the scoring to start the second half, connecting on the first two goals to give the Saints a 12-3 advantage. Freshman Stephanie Athens recorded Pfeiffer's first tally of the second half on a free position shot to make the score 12-4.
Limestone pushed the lead to as much as 11 before the Falcons mounted a comeback. Chalane Morrison, Kristi Korn, Ashleigh Kassab and Daly scored consecutive goals for Pfeiffer to put the Saints on their collective heels. However, time ran out on the Pfeiffer comeback attempt as they were unable to find the back of the net the rest of the way.
For the game, Limestone held a 29-23 disparity in shots and grabbed seven more ground balls than Pfeiffer.
Farrell scored four goals for the Saints and Taylor Cline added three.
Daly paced the Falcons with two goals and one assists while three players added two points. Katherine Athens led all players with six ground ball and five draw controls and added one caused turnover, giving her a Division II-leading 52 on the year.
Cassidy Wilson played the first 36:41 in net before giving way to Rachel McCarthy at the 23:19 mark of the second half. Wilson made six saves while McCarthy made three stops.
Kristina Anderson, Chalane Morrison and Savannah Phillips were named to the All-Tournament team.
Today's battle was a rematch of the regular season conference finale on April 12 as each team entered unbeaten in conference play. Pfeiffer held a five goal lead with 15:07 to play before the Saints rallied to score the last seven goals to steal a 12-10 victory and clinch the regular season crown.
Pfeiffer will find out its postseason fate on Sunday, May 4 at 8:00 p.m. on the NCAA Division II Selection Show. The selection will be streamed live on NCAA.com as the eight team field is announced. Pfeiffer is currently ranked third in the region and Limestone is number one. The Falcons made the tournament for the first time in school history last season and look to make it two straight trips to nationals after a strong season this year.

Good product-Pioneer after market service unacceptable
2004 Ford F-150
Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?)
This is a great product for the money...looks great, works(ed) great...until iPhone 5 changeover. Before this I could watch Netflix, view on-screen navigation via Waze or NavFree, watch YouTube videos and videos from my phone and much more. I was very pleased until I upgraded my phone to iPhone 5. None of these features work now. So, if you have an older phone or not an iPhone, you will probably be pleased as I was. If not, shop around for a iPhone 5 compatible device. By the way, Crutchfield customer service rocks. Good job. Pioneer customer service is simply terrible. No follow up, communication or concern about resolving issues. F-. I do realize Apple changed things and caused the issue but...step up Pioneer! I rated it high for the product...not for Pioneer.
Pros: Attractive interface, nice EQ settings, easy to use, Great with older or non iPhone 5 use. Multifunctional. Good Bluetooth.
Cons: Pioneer customer service will leave you hanging. Would have been nice to have USB input on the rear of the unit as well.

The EU-US TFTP Agreement: main elements
The TFTP agreement between the European Union and the United States came into force on 1 August 2010 – replacing a previous interim Agreement.
Such international agreement on financial messaging data transfers to the U.S. Treasury Department (UST) is necessary to ensure protection of EU citizens' privacy, while giving the U.S. and EU law enforcement authorities a powerful tool in the fight against terrorism.
Main elements of the 2010 Agreement
The agreement introduced safeguards to accommodate concerns about security, privacy and respect of fundamental rights.
It strengthened data protection guarantees relating to transparency, rights of access, rectification and erasure of inaccurate data. It guarantees non-discriminatory rights of administrative redress and ensures that any person whose data are processed under the Agreement has the right to seek in the U.S. judicial redress for any adverse administrative action. The agreement further acknowledges the principle of proportionality as a guiding principle for its application.
Under the agreement, a European public authority - Europol - assesses whether the data requested in any given case are necessary for the fight against terrorism and its financing. Europol also verifies that each request is tailored as narrowly as possible to minimise the amount of data requested. If a request for data does not meet these conditions, no data can be transferred under the Agreement.
The Agreement also foresees a regular review of the implementation of the TFTP, its safeguards, controls, and reciprocity provisions. Two joint reviews took place (in accordance with Article 13), the latest in 2012 (IP/12/1366). A third joint review is envisaged for 2014.
In addition, the Agreement requires that 3 years after its entry into force an assessment should be prepared on the use and value of TFTP provided data for purposes of identifying, tracking and pursuing terrorists and their networks (in accordance with Article 6). This is the focus of today's mid-term report.
Main provisions of the 2010 Agreement
Article 4(2): "The Request (together with any supplemental documents) shall:
Article 4(4) et seq: "Upon receipt of the copy, Europol shall verify as a matter of urgency whether the Request complies with the requirements of paragraph 2. Europol shall notify the Designated Provider that it has verified that the Request complies with the requirements of paragraph 2."
Article 4(6): "The Designated Provider shall thereupon provide the data (i.e., on a "push basis") directly to the U.S. Treasury Department."
Article 5 sets out detailed and legally binding safeguards and controls guarding against any wrongful processing of personal data under the Agreement.
Article 5(2): "Provided Data shall be processed exclusively for the prevention, investigation, detection, or prosecution of terrorism or its financing"
Article 5(3): "The TFTP does not and shall not involve data mining or any other type of algorithmic or automated profiling or computer filtering."
Article 5(4): "…Provided Data shall not be interconnected with any other database; …Provided Data shall not be subject to any manipulation, alteration, or addition…"
Article 5(5): "All searches of Provided Data shall be based upon pre-existing information or evidence which demonstrates a reason to believe that the subject of the search has a nexus to terrorism or its financing."
Article 5(6): "Each individual TFTP search of Provided Data shall be narrowly tailored, shall demonstrate a reason to believe that the subject of the search has a nexus to terrorism or its financing, and shall be logged, including such nexus to terrorism or its financing required to initiate the search."
Article 5(7): "Provided Data may include identifying information about the originator and/or recipient of a transaction, including name, account number, address, and national identification number."
See also Recital on proportionality as guiding principle of Agreement.
Article 6(1): UST must undertake ongoing assessment to identify and delete data which are no longer necessary for purpose of Agreement. Article 12(4) states that data deletion obligations of the Agreement will continue to operate notwithstanding termination of the Agreement
Article 6(2): "If it transpires that financial payment messaging data were transmitted which were not requested, the U.S. Treasury Department shall promptly and permanently delete such data and shall inform the relevant Designated Provider."
Article 6(4): Non-extracted data are to be kept for no longer than 5 years. But NB also Articles 6(5) and 6(6) requiring assessment of whether the period should be reduced during lifetime of Agreement.
Article 6(6): "Not later than three years from the date of entry into force of this Agreement, the European Commission and the U.S. Treasury Department shall prepare a joint report regarding the value of TFTP Provided Data, with particular emphasis on the value of data retained for multiple years and relevant information obtained from the joint review conducted pursuant to Article 13. The Parties shall jointly determine the modalities of this report."
Article 6(7): "Information extracted from Provided Data, including information shared under Article 7, shall be retained for no longer than necessary for specific investigations or prosecutions for which they are used."
Article 7 sets out detailed limitations on onward transfer. Only data derived from individual searches pursuant to Article 5 may be the subject of onward transfer, such data are subject to a logging obligation, may only be shared with public authorities responsible for the fight against terrorism and exclusively for counter terrorism purposes. Where the UST is aware that the data are those of an EU citizen or resident, their onward transfer is broadly subject to the prior consent of the competent MS authorities; Onward transfer must be subject to a commitment by the receiving party to delete the data once no longer necessary for the particular investigation.
Article 9 states that the US will spontaneously provide information derived from the TFTP to competent authorities of MS and to Europol and Eurojust as appropriate where that information may be relevant to the fight against terrorism.
Article 10 states that competent authorities of MS and Europol and Eurojust as appropriate, may request that UST carries out searches of the TFTP database in connection with an investigation of a person suspected of terrorism.
Article 12 confirms that the safeguards will continue to be subject to SWIFT scrutiny and inspection of independent auditors. In addition, the Commission may appoint an independent person who will monitor this oversight on an ongoing basis.
Article 13 sets out detailed provisions on the Review of the Agreement. The Review will be led by the Commission with a team including independent data protection, security and judicial experts.
"[…] The review shall include a representative and random sample of searches in order to verify compliance with the safeguards and controls set out in this Agreement, as well as a proportionality assessment of the Provided Data, based on the value of such data for the investigation, prevention, detection, or prosecution of terrorism or its financing. […]"
Transparency, right of access, right of rectification, erasure and blocking are guaranteed by Articles 14, 15 and 16. Redress rights both administrative and judicial are guaranteed by Article 18. Recital states that proportionality is a guiding principle of the Agreement.
Article 18 ensures non-discriminatory administrative redress, and rights of judicial redress for any person whose data are processed pursuant to the Agreement
Article 20(2): "Nothing in this Agreement shall derogate from existing obligations of the United States and Member States under the Agreement on Mutual Legal Assistance between the European Union and the United States of America of 25 June 2003 and the related bilateral mutual legal assistance instruments between the United States and Member States."
Article 21: deals with suspension or termination of the Agreement
Article 21 (1): "Either Party may suspend the application of this Agreement with immediate effect, in the event of breach of the other Party's obligations under this Agreement, by notification through diplomatic channels."
Article 21 (2): "Either Party may terminate this Agreement at any time by notification through diplomatic channels. Termination shall take effect six (6) months from the date of receipt of such notification."
Article 23(2): The Agreement is for a period of 5 years renewable for one year periods unless otherwise terminated.

Federal authorities have charged a former Jacksonville bank vice president with embezzling $10.5 million for himself and customers, oddly using the money to help them with loans and other banking favors, court records show.
Christopher David Boston, 40, entered into a plea agreement with prosecutors last week in which he admitted to the thefts from Fifth Third Bank over a 3½-year period, records show. The thefts occurred while Boston was working as a vice president and a private banker at the bank's Mandarin branch at 9716 San Jose Blvd. just south of Old St. Augustine Road. A private banker handles high dollar accounts, of which Boston had dozens.
Boston has not been arrested and is set to be in court next week to formally enter the plea to bank fraud, which carries a sentence of up to 30 years in prison and a $1 million fine. Boston could not be reached to comment and his defense attorney, former State Attorney Harry Shorstein, declined to comment, as did prosecutors.
A one-count information, which is a charging document prepared by federal prosecutors in lieu of an indictment, and the plea agreement initialed by Boston were filed in the federal clerk's office in Jacksonville Feb. 19.
Boston, a bank employee since about 2007, admitted embezzling the money from one large commercial corporate account and two individual customer accounts, falsifying bank records and illegally laundered funds between November 2009 and April 2013.
About $8.3 million was taken from the individual accounts, while about $2.2 million came from the corporate account. The account holders were not identified in court records.
Boston electronically transferred the $8.3 million to the corporate account to help conceal a theft from that account, according to the records. It's unclear if the individual account holders noticed the money was missing. The records do not say what triggered the investigation.
Boston used about $210,000 of the stolen money to pay down mortgage payments of about $2,000 for a Mandarin home on Emily's Crossing Court just off Losco Road. That money also went toward installing a backyard swimming pool, court records show.
The home was given to his wife after she was granted a divorce in September, several months after her husband lost his job during the investigation, the couple's divorce file said. Records show about $250,000 was owed on the two-story home at the time of the divorce.
Court records said Boston used the bulk of the stolen money to:
■ Pay off the troubled loans in his customer portfolio.
■ Make "off-book" loans to customers whose loan applications had previously been denied and then making off-book interest payments on those loans. The records said many of those customers unknowingly received the benefit, though a further explanation was not provided.
■ Deposit the money into other customer accounts to fraudulently bolster their creditworthiness.
■ Provide customers "enhanced" interest returns on deposit accounts.
It's unclear how Boston benefited, if at all, by helping the other customers. None of those customers are named in the information or plea agreement.
After discovering the theft, the bank "took corrective action in order to make their victimized clients whole and then to attempt to recover bank funds embezzled by the defendant," the plea agreement said.
The records said the bank replenished the three accounts, then attempted to issue legitimate loans to customers who received about $8.4 million in "off-the-book and non-conforming" loans from Boston.
"Fortunately, the majority of the individuals that had unknowingly received the benefit ... voluntarily agreed to sign new bank-approved and legitimate loan documents," the plea agreement said.
About $6.4 million in new loans were made, leaving about $2 million likely never to be recovered by the bank. The money is insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corp. About $2.2 million in restitution is being sought from Boston, the records said.
Fifth Third Bancorp, headquartered in Cincinnati, has about 10 branches in the Jacksonville area and 1,320 full-service banking centers in 12 states, according to the company's website. Bank branch officials declined to comment on the case, instead referring all inquiries to the bank's corporate office. An email from that office said that all affected customers have been contacted and that none would suffer a loss.
Boston and his ex-wife have one child, records show. At the time of the divorce, the wife worked at another branch of Fifth Third Bank. Records do not connect her to the case in any way and she has not been charged.

NASHVILLE, Tenn. (November 16, 2011) – The No. 5-seeded ETSU volleyball team will take on No.4-seeded Kennesaw State in the quarterfinals of the Atlantic Sun Championship on Thursday night at 8:30 p.m. (ET) inside Allen Arena.
The Bucs and Owls meet for the second third time this season as the two teams split the first two meetings. Kennesaw State earned a 3-0 win over ETSU in Johnson City back on October 22, while the Bucs got revenge the very next week by knocking off the Owls on October 28 in Kennesaw.
ETSU enters the tournament with a 13-14 overall record and finished 7-6 in the A-Sun, while Kennesaw State heads into Thursday's match with a 13-15 overall mark and a 8-5 conference record.
Sophomore Megan Devine (Kingsport, Tenn.), senior Jamie Stancliff (Advance, N.C.) and freshman Meredith Hardy (Kingsport, Tenn.) each earned A-Sun all-conference honors on Tuesday. Devine was named First-Team All-Atlantic Sun, Stancliff earned Second-Team All-Atlantic Sun and Hardy was named to the All-Freshman Team.
Devine ranks second in the A-Sun in both kills and points. She has recorded 14 double-doubles on the season and four straight overall. Meanwhile, Stancliff leads the A-Sun in blocks with 1.11 per set. In fact, Stancliff leads the A-Sun amongst current student-athletes with 321 career blocks. She is just 12 away from tying for 10th most all-time in conference history.
No. 5-seeds are just 2-14 in quarterfinal matches of the Atlantic Sun Championship under the current format. However, ETSU was the last No. 5-seed to win a quarterfinal match as the Bucs knocked off No. 4 Mercer in 2008.
The Bucs are looking to make a run in the Atlantic Sun Championship for the second straight season. ETSU, the No. 3-seed in 2010, knocked off No. 6 North Florida in the quarterfinals and No. 2-seeded Kennesaw State in the semifinals, to advance to its first ever Atlantic Sun Championship final. There have been 12 times in A-Sun Championship history that the defending tournament runner-up has returned to the championship final the following year. On four occasions, they have won the title.
The winner of the ETSU/Kennesaw State match will take on top-seeded Belmont on Friday night at 8:30 p.m. (ET) in semifinal action.
For fans unable to attend the tournament in Nashville, each match of the Atlantic Sun Championship will be shown live on ASun.TV free of charge.

While you wouldn't forget to wash your hands after working in the garden or to brush your teeth before heading to bed, you might not realize that your garden tools need the same daily care. Before long, the tools begin to deteriorate -- but so gradually that you may not notice until it's too late. Caring for tools is far easier than working with dull or rusted ones and cheaper than buying new ones every few years.
Well-maintained tools make every task more agreeable. Sharp garden shears will trim grass with ease, and a well-honed shovel will slice through soil efficiently. The garden benefits from your efforts, too: A keen blade on a pruner, lopper, or lawn mower cuts cleanly, allowing plants to heal more quickly.
Taking care of tools also makes sense economically. Tools seldom become obsolete; most will be as efficient and reliable decades from now as they are today. And some become more valuable over time as collectible antiques or practical family heirlooms. Just ask Martha: she uses several tools inherited from her father to help keep her gardens beautiful. So take a few minutes at the end of each day to wipe off dirt and moisture, and a couple of hours every few months to sharpen dulled edges, grease creaky hinges, and replace missing parts. Set aside a corner of your garage, toolshed, or basement as a tune-up area -- because once you're organized, keeping tools in pristine condition will become an easy habit.

15 Recipes for Comfort Food From Around the World
I've been watching a lot of the Olympics this past week. Figure skating, hockey, curling, the biatholon –– it all works up an appetite. So I'm considering cozy recipes from around the world to accompany the Winter Games: comfort food from China, Italy, Thailand, and beyond. I'm talking savory fried rice, and sweet and chewy gluten-free bibingka from The Philippines. Or perhaps classic boeuf Bourguignon, Korean steamed egg custard, or a tray of honey-crisped baklava from Greece.
I can't decide! Can you help?
Maybe I'll try them all. No matter what I'm planning on a pot of that Cuban black bean soup and a big plate of spaghetti alla carbonara. I'd also love to try my hand at homemade baklava, which actually doesn't look as complicated as I thought it might be.

text: Hello, I have followed somewhere on this forum a post on how to change my FQDN of my server with at the end running the hostname.sh file. Everythings work fine. So i have upgraded my ISPConfig server to version 3.0.4 and while choosing the preferred options i have enabled the SSL login... My problem is; my old domaine name will expire, and with the SSL enabled by default the old domain is only available and not the new. For example, let's say my old domaine is : domain1.tld With the older version i was accessing the panel with http://hostname.domain1.tld:8080 With the panel updated to 3.0.4 and SSL enabled, the panel is only available from the old domain and not https://hostname.domain2.tld:8080/ Have you an idea how to help me, do i need to reinstall completely ? Or i am forced to use the old domain ?

Wayne county is not what she used to be, say forty years ago.
This truth was brought vividly to mind this week when the writer spent a few hours rambling through pages of Wayne county newspapers that were published in 1884, 1885, and 1886.
We found a lot of interesting things about the Wayne county of forty years ago and its people. A recital of a few of the outstanding facts [from] these early issues of Wayne County newspapers should be of immense human interest and historical value to our readers today, and so we have prepared this story which we hope you will enjoy.
By way of introductory explanation, we should say that the first newspaper ever published in Wayne County was The Ceredo Cresant (sic) which began in December 1857 before the Civil War. W. B. Wilson was proprietor and C. B. Webb editor of this paper. This paper expired in 1861. The second venture in journalism in Wayne County was the publication of The Wayne Advocate at Trout's Hill (now the town of Wayne) in August 1874 by B. Lewis, who came to this county from Western Reserve, Ohio. This paper was the forerunner of the present Wayne County News which you now hold in your hands. This paper was later moved to Cassville (now Fort Gay) and again moved back to Trouts Hill (or Wayne) in 1880, where it has been published continuously ever since. Among those who have from time to time since its birth been connected with this paper as owners or editors are the following: Byron C. Howell, Dr. A. Workman, C. R. Enslow, McFarland Booton, G. W. Hutchinson II, E. Shumate, W. M. Workman, R. J. Prichard, W. L. Mansfield, C. L. Deane, Boyd Jarrell, C. G. Fry, O. J. and J. W. Rife, and the present management. The Ceredo Enterprise was begun in Ceredo in September 1881 by W. M. Workman and Lee C. Salyes. A year later T. T. McDougal (present editor and owner of the Ceredo Advance) purchased the interest of Salyes and continued the publication of The Enterprise and later the publications of The Ceredo Advance and The Kenova Reporter.
Mr. McDougal had formerly been associated with P. C. Morris in the publication The West Virginia Star," later The Ritchie Gazette, and still later founded The Lincoln Clipper." Wayne County News was first known as The Wayne Advocate, then as The Wayne County News under the managements of Mansfield, Jarrell, Rife and Fry. The name was changed to Wayne County News in September 1919 when the paper was assumed by the present management.
With the foregoing historical setting in our minds, we turn to the old issues of the Advocate and Enterprise, published back in the eighties.
In 1884 The Advocate did not carry a single line of Wayne County news on either the front or the back pages. It was a four-page paper, eight columns to the page, and the local happenings were largely confined to the first three columns on page three.
Among items of interest in the Advocate in 1884 are the following:
The county was being "pestered" with lightning rod agents and a good many of the leading citizens were buying rods.
An educational column was begun in the Advocate by Professor T. B. McClure, who still lives in Wayne. The following paragraph appeared in Professor McClure's column:
"We used the following words in our school Friday, January 25th: Mulberry, pacify, rarely, camonulo, baiting, brooch, bruise, brews, clause, fossil, fete, gorgeous, calamus, freeze, salt, persuade, guest, corrode, Hugh, thirteen, Ode, owing, wrestle, libeling. The following are the highest percentages:
Jannie E. Ratcliff 95 M. J. Ferguson 88 W. B. Spurlock 80 Zara F. Hutchinson 72 Julia Burke 72 A. G. Wilkinson 72
T. B. McCLURE"
Coal in 1884 in the town of Wayne was selling at 17 to 20 cents a bushel, and was scarce.
Hogs were reported as being "terribly high due to the prevalence of cholera, causing hogs to sell as high as 6 and 7 cents a pound."
One of the big questions of the day was whether the railroad would be built up right fork or left fork of Twelve Pole; the interest in that issue seemed quite as lively as the interest taken in the county seat removal questions in recent years.
An item is found in the issue of May 1, 1884, which reads: "Married by the Rev. J. D. Garrett on April 24, 1884, Mr. John W. Mitchell and Miss Mary Bloss." Mr. Mitchell is now postmaster at Wayne.
Advertisement of land for sale was carried by the H. K. Shumate Real Estate Agency of Wayne, offering for sale valuable land in Wayne, Logan and Lincoln counties at prices ranging from $1.00 to $3.00 an acre. This included both mineral and surface. Much of the land in the famous Logan coal field was bought and sold in those days for one dollar to three dollars an acre, $1. 50 being the average price. A 250 acre farm in Wayne County with all kind of good buildings and orchards, including residence, is offered for sale for $1,000 with one-fourth dosn and balance in three years.
By order of the town council all persons living in the town of Wayne were ordered to take their dogs off the street and "confine them" in suitable pens.
A rise in Twelve Pole took down "at least eight thousand fine hogs and a vast quantity of staves." Most of the timber was oak. Timbering was one of the chief industries in Wayne County in that day.
"Bull Durham Tobacco" and "Tutt's Pills" were the only two commodities advertised in the Advocate in 1884 that can still be found on the market today.
One of the most interesting things found in the ramble through files of old Wayne County newspapers was a copy of The Ceredo Enterprise of August 5, 1884, which published the Financial Statement of the expenditures of Wayne County for the year ending May 31, 1884. In 1884 the highest salaried officer in Wayne County was the prosecuting attorney, and he received only $350.00 a year. The names of the officers of 1884 and their yearly salaries were
|John S. Marcum, pros. atty
|William E. Wilkinson, sheriff
|Jas. P. Wellman, Cir. clerk
|P. H. Napier, county clerk
|Alderson Walker, jailor
|G. L. Wheeler, assessor 1st dist
|Jas. Queen, assessor 2nd dist
|$1, 485
The total election expense in the county for the year 1884 was $11.35, which was paid to S. J. Ferguson, Abraham Vaughan and J. W. Merrick, who served as election commissioners.
Following is the recapitulation or summary of all county government expenses for the year ending May 31, 1884, including the total county expenses and total road expenses. These should be interesting to taxpayers of this present day as a matter of comparison with our present government, which has necessarily grown more complex as the county has grown and developed. The 1884 recapitulations are as follows:
|General County Expense
|Salary of officers
|County court expense
|Election expense
|Stationery and books
|Witness and jury fund
|Incidental expenses
|Pauper fund
|Total expense
|County Levy of 1883
|Bal. in sheriff's hands
|County Road Expense
|General County
|1st district
|2nd district
|3rd district
|4th district
|Total road expense
The Wayne Advocate, in its issue of June 5, 1884, publishes a lengthy news story of a rousing Democratic convention that was held at Wayne on Monday of that week. W. L. Mansfield was Democratic County Chairman. Chapman Adkins was Secretary of the County Committee. Among those who took a prominent part in the proceedings of the convention were John S. Marcum and Z. T. Vinson, who were active Democrats in those days but both of them have sense joined the Republican party.
Typical of the news items that appeared in the Advocate, we quote the following paragraph relative to James Frizzell, a resident of Wayne in those days:
"James Frizzell one day last week went to the country in the capacity of Deputy Sheriff to attach a witness. He found him and did the necessary "attaching," and gave him permission to change his clothes for something better as he was coming on a visit to the Hotel de Walker, (namely, the jail) situated very near our courthouse. While James was enjoying the scenery from the front porch, the witness was seeking the selected shades of the mountain forests to the rear. James came home a sadder and wiser man, and has handed in his resignation."
An advertisement for Ferguson & Watts' store, at Wayne, quoted the following prices on groceries: Arbuckle Coffee, five pounds for one dollar; breakfast bacon, .15 a pound; lard, .14; shoulder, .14; flour, $6.00 to $8.50 a barrell.
A meeting was called of citizens of the Town of Wayne in January 1884 for the purpose of organizing a Baptist Sunday school. The M. E. (Methodist) church already had a Sunday school here at that time. The Latter Day Saints (Mormons) were holding preaching here then.
The circuit court docket for the January term of 1885 was quite as crowded as is the present-day docket, according to the following paragraph from the Advocate:
"The circuit court docket of our county is reaching beyond control of any Judge. There are 769 cases on the Docket, arranged as follows: State appearance, 247; State issue, 245; appeal, 52; Office judgment, 20; and Chancery cases, 205. It would take one half of the term to call the Docket if an enquiry was to be made as to the Status of each case. We need relief and need it badly. We must either have more time or an Intermediate Court."
Newspapers in those days had no scruples against carrying advertisements on the first page. Even as late as 1906, we find most of the front pages of The Wayne County News taken up by display advertising. The advertisements of liquor houses in Williamson, Huntington and Catlettsburg made up a considerable part of the display advertising that was carried. "A. Goodman" of Williamson and "Ziegler & Behrend" are the names of two famous saloons that were regular advertising patrons of The Wayne County News for a good many years.
The following paragraphs are taken from the "Local News Column" of the Advocate, dated April 8th, 1886:
The martins have come again.
Fresh fish are quite plentiful in Huntington, we understand.
Be courteous to Strangers that are among us.
The season is coming when cows try to climb trees.
To cure dull times, apply and advertisement to the afflicted parts.
Onions, greens and hog's jowl make up the favorite dish at this season.
The farmers of Wayne County should form an Association for the raising of thoroughbred stock. It will pay.
It's a strange thing that a man who knows exactly how to run a newspaper is always engaged in some other kind of business!
The small boy trots out his agate and his glass-eye, draws a ring on the pavement where men most do congregate, and bide business give way to pleasure. Sweet child, lovely flower, what would the Spring be without you?
The time of the year is drawing near when the wives and mothers of America will attire themselves in a faded, ragged, calico mother-hubbard, encase their heads in a tattered remnant shawl, tear up their carpets, pile up the furniture in the back yard, scold everybody, slop water all over the floor between the roof and ground, set out cold dinners, and call the operation "house cleaning".
The front gate party for this season is approaching.
High water caused the missing of the mail last week. The Huntington carrier failed on both trips.
The tide waters of Twelve Pole last week swept away quite a number of small bridges, and slips in the road are numerous, thus almost stopping the usual travel. Wagons cannot get in any direction from our town owing to these difficulties. It is estimated that from 30,000 to 50,000 logs in Twelve Pole went out in the rise last week, and in addition a great many staves were drifted. The old excuse we often hear--"Wait till I get my timber out!"--can avail no longer in Wayne County. Times certainly should get better now.
On Monday and Tuesday of this week there fell about six inches of snow here, which is rather late for snow.
Messrs. C. W. Ferguson, W. S. Napier, G. G. Burgess, Burwell Spurlock and a number of others in our vicinity are down the river looking after timber interests.
J. M. Tiernan was recently thrown out of his buggy on rough roads returning from Ceredo and has been kept closely about home for several days.
The Editor wants twenty nice hens and some potato onion sets, which he will take on subscription or pay market price in cash.
The ubiquitious drummer is moving around as usual.
The following story, which reminds he editor of the Advocate of the cat who weighed the cheese for two monkeys, is now going the rounds in this community: A prosperous farmer of Owingsville, Kentucky, a widower of over 50 years of age, has two sons, who were both in love with the same girl. The young lady found it very difficult to decide which to take and the old man solved the problem by sending the boys off on business and marrying the girl himself while they were away.
From 1885 to 1925 is a good span of years--and times have changed since the days of The Wayne Advocate. Railroads have since been built in the county; the timber has largely been cut down and sold; automobiles have replaced horses and buggies; mineral wealth has been developed; business enterprises, unknown in 1885, have grown to places of power and influence in the commonwealth; the population of the county has increased from a scant scattering of people to nearly thirty thousand; agricultural development has been noteworthy; the business of the county government has developed from a simple organization to a complex business machine. Property valuations have increased from less than five million dollars to nearly forty million.
Some folks have a tendency to look upon the olden days as the "good old days" and say that crime and hatred and all other evils were less in evidence than in modern times; others disagree with this view and regard the present day as far surpassing any period of history.
But however that may be, it has been worth your while, we hope, to view Wayne County as it was forty years ago as it has been pictured in the foregoing descriptive touches of life in the eighties. In 1965 possibly this newspaper will draw a comparison with that age and our present 1925 that will show even more remarkable changes in Wayne County forty years hence than have taken place in the same period that hast just passed.
Letter to the Editor
Lavalette, W. Va.
January 13, 1925
Editor Wayne County News
Wayne, West Virginia
Dear Sir:
If you will permit me, I desire to express my views on our system of tax collecting.
The taxpayers of West Virginia have recently had the opportunity to experience some of the unpleasant effects of our present laws, whcih require the old sheriff to check out of the office in the middle of a new tax book, at a time when every good tax payer is trying to pay his taxes to avoid having to pay interest.
In order to be able to check out, the old sheriff is compelled to close the office in most counties at least two weeks during the latter part of December, and then after January 1st the new sheriff is required to charge ten per cent on taxes.
This naturally causes a rush on the office, and a great many can not get in in time before the office is closed.
My remedy for this would be a change in our constitution, which would put a stop to the one man trying to serve as a collector and peace officer, all at the same time, someting that no one man can do successfully. I believe we could improve conditions by cutting up the office system, so that the people would have a voice in who is to serve them, instead of allowing so much room for trading and buying themselves into office with deputyships, as has always been the case in our state. I believe that a sheriff should be elected to serve all county papers and act as a conservator of the peace.
I believe that a jailor should be elected by the people and have charge of the jail and its inmates.
I believe that we should have a county treasurer, as all progressive states have had for many years, and require the tax books to be kept in the office of the county seat, instead of scattering the tax books over the country, as has always been done. Allow two and one half percent on all taxes paid before January 1st; allow taxes paid in January at face value. Add ten percent on the face of all unpaid taxes on the first day of February instead of counting the interest per annum as is done now after January 1st.
Let the treasurer take office on the first day of July, which is the beginning of the fiscal tax year, and the old rush that we now have in December would be eliminated, and the outgoing treasurer would be at the last end of his tax book, which should be collected or ready to return delinquent. He should be arranging for his regular annual settlement, and the office would be ready for the new treasurer to assume at once, without having to close the office and wait for a special expensive audit, as it is now under our old system.
This is the question which I deem fit for thoughtful consideration by every tax payer in our state. It should be considered as non-political, and our lawmakers should get busy and bring about a modern system that would show to the outside world that the little mountain state of West Virginia is coming to the front.
Let others give their views.
Very truly yours,
G. M. Johnson
Local business men are busily taking inventories and making up statements of last year's business, preparatory to the filing of Gross Sales Tax statements and Income Tax statements. The gross sales tax report must be in the hands of the State Commissioner not later than January 31st, and the Income Tax report must be filed with the Internal Revenue at Parkersburg no later than March 15th. All persons or businesses who did more than $10,000 business in gross sales are required to make the report. The income tax law requires that report be filed by single persons who had net income of $1,500 or more or gross income of $5,000 or more, and married couples who had net income of $3,500 or more or gross income of $5,000 or more.
Announcement is received of the marriage of Miss Bernice Vaughan of Kenova and James Gordon Bowen of Huntington. The bride is the attractive daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Charles T. Vaughan of Kenova, and the groom is the son of Mr. and Mrs.Millard F. Bowen, now of Huntington but former residents of Wayne. The groom is now an employee of the Huntington Advertiser and was formerly with Wayne County News. The bride is a member of the 1925 graduating class of Ceredo-Kenova High school. Mr. and Mrs. Bowen, who were the guests of relatives in Wayne Wednesday, will be at home to their friends at an apartment which they are occupying on Adams Avenue in Huntington.
H. Lewis of Armilda, has been appointed county surveyor by the county court for a period of two years from January 1st. There was no candidate for this place in the recent election, which necessitated the county filling the vacancy. One of the primary duties of the county surveyor is to determine disputed property lines between citizens. . .
A wedding of wide interest was solemnnized last Sunday, when Lonnie Adkins, son of Mr. and Mrs. Kiah Adkins of Wayne, was married to Miss Erma Baily, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. George Bailey of Logan county. . . Mr. and Mrs. Adkins will spend their honeymoon in Florida.

A recent front page photo in the Daily News spotlights the NRA's total insanity.
The gun nut showing his young daughter how to fire an AR-15 assault rifle at the NRA's convention should be prosecuted for endangering the welfare of a child. Teaching your kid to be the next Adam Lanza isn't responsible parenting.
This proves that NRA members are just a bunch of low-rent Rambos who pack heat to prove their manhood and substitute a Bushmaster rifle for a brain. They should all be placed in a new chain of psychiatric hospitals called Chock Full of Nuts.

Recount affirms voter renewal of a 1.7-mill road levy in Carroll County.
The renewal of a 1.7-mill road levy will stand as a Wednesday recount turned up the same vote count as the Nov. 5 election.
Along with the road levy, the Carroll County Board of Elections recounted votes for a Harrison Township trustee race.
And the results were the same, incumbent Charles Carter maintained his four-vote margin over challenger Frank Chiurco.
"No numbers went up or down," said Amanda Tubaugh, director of the Carroll County Board of Elections.
The countywide, five-year road levy maintained its vote count of 2,960 for and 2,941 against. The margin was 19 votes. The road levy generates about $190,000 annually for road and bridge maintenance in Carroll County.
In Harrison Township, Carter kept his 196 votes while Chiurco stayed at 192.
