COLUMBIA -- SLED and the 5th Circuit solicitor's office are investigating the finances of Democratic U.S. Senate candidate Alvin Greene to see whether any laws have been broken in the way he has been representing his financial situation to the state court system.
SLED will use a new state law that allows the agency to issue an administrative subpoena to financial institutions, agency director Reggie Lloyd confirmed Sunday.
But a spokesman for the state attorney general's office, whose authorization is needed for the subpoenas, says no application had been received as of late Monday morning.
Gov. Mark Sanford signed the new law last Thursday. The law requires banks to turn over to SLED basic information about account holders in cases of suspected financial wrongdoing.
The confirmation of the formal investigation into Greene's finances is the latest wrinkle in events surrounding Greene, who since winning the June 8 Democratic primary has attracted state and national attention.
Greene, 32, won 59 percent of the vote in an upset against Vic Rawl, a former circuit judge widely expected to trounce the unknown Greene. Greene was unemployed and had no organized campaign, and had been discharged "involuntarily" from the Army. He lived at home with his father in Clarendon County.
Greene's victory took on added strangeness when The Associated Press reported Greene was facing felony obscenity charges arising from a University of South Carolina student's allegation that he had harassed her with computer pornography. After that November charge, Greene told a magistrate he didn't have enough money to afford a lawyer and was appointed -- at taxpayers' expense -- a public defender. Greene has said he is innocent of the pornography charge.
Then, in March, Greene somehow came up with $10,400 in cash to pay the Democratic Party filing fee to run for U.S. Senate.
Lloyd said his agency's inquiry was triggered by inconsistencies between Greene's assertion to the court that he had no money and needed a taxpayer-supported lawyer, and his unexplained acquisition of $10,400 to pay the filing fee.
"We want to see how he came up with the money," Lloyd said.
Greene reported just over $1,000 in monthly income on court paperwork, and has told reporters that the $10,400 was money he had saved. But he declined to produce records to show where the money came from.
Fifth Circuit Solicitor Barney Giese, reached at home Sunday afternoon, confirmed his office was working with SLED. He declined further comment.
National news media have portrayed the Greene situation as yet another bizarre act in South Carolina's unending episodes of political weirdness, including racist statements and public adultery confessions and charges by prominent people in public life.
Greene's situation has embarrassed Democrats, who are mortified their party nominated such an unknown to face U.S. Sen. Jim DeMint, R-S.C., in November. The GOP already has begun to use Greene's victory to belittle the gubernatorial bid of Sen. Vincent Sheheen, D-Kershaw. Despite there being no evidence Sheheen and Greene even knew each other, Republicans already publicly assert that voters should consider the two Democrats a package.
Dick Harpootlian, a former 5th Circuit solicitor and former S.C. State Democratic Party chairman, said Sunday he was glad to hear a credible law agency is probing Greene's finances.
"Forget about the politics," Harpootlian said. "It's essential for the integrity of the courts this be cleared up. Someone made a representation to the court that he was indigent and then got what would be thousands of dollars of free legal services at taxpayer expense."
Harpootlian, who has extensive criminal law experience, said it's rare for law enforcement to actually verify bank accounts of people who claim they don't have enough money to hire a private attorney and therefore qualify for a taxpayer-paid lawyer. If someone deliberately lied about their financial resources to get a free lawyer, Harpootlian said, that could be grounds for criminal charges.
In another development Sunday, 5th Circuit Public Defender Doug Strickler said he no longer represents Greene.
Early last week, Strickler told The State, he received a letter from a private attorney telling him he represents Greene in the pornography charges.
"We have been relieved by the court," Strickler said.
Greene has told the Associated Press he hired Columbia attorney Eleazer Carter, who has said he was hoping to represent Greene but did not immediately return messages Monday.
The attention surrounding Greene's candidacy has attracted several other candidates. Supporters of Linda Ketner, who as a Democrat two years ago nearly unseated GOP incumbent U.S. Rep. Henry Brown, are collecting petition signatures to get her name on the Senate ballot.
And anti-nuclear activist Tom Clements has filed paperwork to represent the Green Party in the November election.

Hospital Bill Format Word
Medical bills format (word) – dotxes at invoice examples
Hospital Bill Format Word For making the best effect on their customers businesses must have professionally designed invoice. The account may be the last part of your income option that should get registered in the head of the customer. Is not it good to close the offers having an impressive, skillfully- developed invoice?
A well developed account is essential in developing the standing of one's organization, compelling the consumer to stay your dues rapidly and also to request your solutions again, therefore supporting your business grow. While doubting the authority of the invoice, the client might take longer to be in your fee which can significantly affect your revenue. As you can simply access a theme that may fit your form of company or industry you never need to get overwhelmed by this work of invoicing. Seeking the proper theme assists protecting plenty of money and time.
First of all, you ought to be ready to recognize the requirements of a good theme. Certain characteristics are normal to the majority of accounts. As an example, it's to really have the name of its own target and the organization, along with the contact info of the customer. It necessarily describes solutions offered's sort and also the value agreed for delivering them. Usually, their emblem is included by companies inside the account and, depending on business' dynamics, they could mention the payment conditions and the break down of things or services provided.
Having formed of everything you need a concept, it gets easier to control your choices. These may be somewhat expensive, especially for smaller businesses, although generally, templates are provided by software applications. You may also buy individual layouts online. For completing your organization, the Internet offers a significant amount of tools that are helpful. You may also get bill themes totally free.
It is simple to develop an account containing every one of the crucial attributes by using the bill templates presented at no cost online. You can get various kinds of statements. You might have an invoice for providing any particular service or items or just work. You also can find templates for proforma accounts. You will find free themes in a sizable range of platforms, and a few of them may currently be there-in your personal computer, including Microsoft Word, HTML, Microsoft Excel and PDF etc. Many free templates have time saving functions, such as common logos, as well as other options you could like including within your specific emblem – intelligent installation of date of invoicing, integral calculation process and drop-down selections – enabling you to pick different what to change quickly the format for your needs.
Having eventually developed the invoice theme, you should have to print it. Here, again, you have some possibilities. For starters, you send them to your client and print the account inside your office, and could only modify your invoice design. You could also electronically transfer your invoice, utilizing the email. At times, you may need to offer bare bills for your servicing staff, enabling them to hand them over to customers for obtaining funds and to prepare accounts on the spot. You may even consider having a variety of each one of these.

I had been using my computer for a while casually wondering why I could hear the occasional 'hardware' found or removed noise (you know that noise). Because I use memory sticks etc, I just thought maybe it was a delayed response. But it happened so often I just couldn't figure it. Eventually I started to wonder if this noise had anything to do with weird firewall activity (not coming on at start up, having to manually switch it on etc). Then I got ongoing problems with my wireless connection and had to spend ages figuring out why my machine just wasn't acting like it was on broadband anymore.... yeah.
Anyway. This is going to sound freaky but I got up in a slight sweat one night at like 3am for no reason other than an impulse to pull the socket on my computer ( I was a 24/7 stand by user). I did just that that night and the next morning spent the whole day making a presumption that I'd been hacked because of the horrible feeling I'd had the previous night.
Here are the horrors I found: My operating system is Windows XP. My computer is a Dell Inspiron 1300 and since purchase has never been touched other than by me and I'd never even entered administrator account let alone set passwords etc. (I know...). Well the hacker had partitioned my hardrive and the secondary drive was an NT system. (Only found this out when trying to reinstall). When I eventually logged in in safe mode and as administrator, I unchecked folder visibility and found that he had deposited a rich and cuddly (and extensive!!) array of folders all over my computer. Many of which were NTuser files and so on. There were new folders and installations everywhere. My computer/my docs/installations.. God. I also discovered a box of tricks of his including copies of my work folder and copies of all and every spreadsheet I'd made.
There's worse. When I got up Search Companion I found a C drive clone symbol. I made a presumption he had or was in the process of copying my whole drive...
By now, I'd lost a stone in water weight by sweating and swearing. I ran my virus checker in safe mode - it took 8 hours and what's worse!!!!! is the hacker stopped it on my first attempt. I woke up at 4am to run it the second time. It found 47 issues (in normal mode found none!). I went about attempting to delete them all.
I discovered that he was using Remote Access to get daily control and that was runnnig at start up and he had managed to script or run group policies etc. on various systems and services meaning I had no way of just unchecking stuff.
Okay. Moving on. After dozens of books out of the library, loads of research, I thought it was all too far gone and I had to reinstall. Saved my docs (and that's another story - since opening that up again on another computer, that's also been riddled with rubbish...). And proceeded to reinstall. But here's my problem and the reason for this long (sorry... but it's a relief to get it off my chest...) story.
Every time I try a reinstall (and this is my third attempt), the hacker's configurations are still coming through on each clean install. He has used Files and Settings Transfer Wizard to carry through all stuff like his files and installations plus his policies covering my services etc. When I go into for example Secondary Logon and Terminal, Remote Desktop, Remote Access etc. his passwords and name are littered through them all (before reinstall I couldn't see these but now even though I can see them and uncheck them, they come back). He had installed Hyper Terminal but I can't see that now. It's my belief two things have happened, firstly he's used FSTWizard secondly I think there must be some script running that activates if and when I make certain actions. I can now uncheck the firewall exception to remote access but that doesn't help me if there is some recurring virus that can reopen some backdoor for the monster criminal on my computer. I read that remote access cannot work without msn or outlook so I've tried to uninstall them both and have had fun and games in my registry...yeah...
So here I am. Fourth reinstall attempt. Computer shattered and jumpy and jittery after my manic expeditions into both bios and registry. I have at least deleted his blasted operating system and have reinstalled xp on one hard drive. Can you help???? How do I reverse the initialization point when reinstalling XP which is I presume the point at which the file and transfer setting configurations take place.? Secondly, can I disable or manually remove the network card to give me space to sort this out? I'm (was?) clearly on his network and am his zombie.
Thanks so much in advance and apologies again for this mega mail.

Hello everybody, here is an article that was forwarded to Astronomy Contact Group by one of the member. I found it very interesting and I wanted to share it with you even though I didn't write it. Enjoy!
This is particularly true of something we see less and less this time of year: the Sun.
Throughout most of human history, we had no idea the Sun was a star… or that the stars scattered across the night sky were other suns unimaginably far away.
For thousands of years, it was an article of faith that the world was an immovable disk around which the Sun, the planets and the stars all revolved. Everyone believed, indeed knew this.
That changed a few centuries ago. Yet it is only within the last few decades – using everything from ground-based telescopes and spectroscopes to the space-based Solar and Heliospheric Observatory (SOHO) – that we have gained a real understanding of our nearest star.
So let's take a closer look at the celestial giant on which so much of our lives depends…
The Sun is 93 million miles away. A passenger jet flying 550 miles per hour would take 20 years to get to the Sun. To reach the next nearest star, Alpha Centauri, that same plane would need five million years.
The Sun is by far the largest object in our neighborhood, making up 99.8 percent of the mass of the solar system. Its diameter is 865,000 miles. Were it hollow, 1.3 million earths could fit inside it. Yet, in astronomical terms, the Sun is just an average-sized gas ball – out of some 200 billion – in the Milky Way galaxy.
Things look fairly placid here on Earth, if not downright stationary. But that is an illusion. The Earth spins on its axis at 1,040 miles an hour while chugging around the Sun at 66,600 miles per hour. Meanwhile, the Sun – with its retinue of planets – is screaming around the center of the galaxy at 483,000 miles per hour while the Milky Way itself moves toward the Andromeda Galaxy at a hair-raising 1.3 million miles per hour. (And you wonder why you always feel rushed?)
The Sun is the most alien place in the solar system. Its interior is unimaginable hot – at 27 million degrees Fahrenheit – and converts 400 million tons of hydrogen into helium every second. Indeed, conditions there are so extreme that hydrogen and helium atoms break into their constituent parts – protons and electrons – and re-fuse into heavier elements. That process – called nuclear fusion – is what makes stars shine.
Author and astronomer Bob Berman writes, "The power of the Sun's continuous nuclear fusion is equal to 91 billion megatons of TNT per second. That's 91 billion standard one-megaton H-bombs going off in the time it takes to say 'Holy moly.'"
Fortunately, we're a safe distance away. In fact, we're the perfect distance away. Venus is a boiling mess. Mars is a frozen desert. But you and I are here because we inhabit "the Goldilocks zone," a region where temperatures are moderate and water can exist as a liquid.
We are all tied to the Sun in the most intimate ways. It is the master timekeeper, marking off our days and nights as well as the years. The Sun drives our weather and climate and even affects your moods.
Psychologists are familiar with something called Seasonal Affective Disorder. When the skies turn grey, the weather cools and the days shorten, our bodies slow down, our energy wanes and our outlook darkens. Your biological clock and even your disposition are affected by sunlight (or the lack of it).
In fact, we need this precious resource to live. True, too much sunlight is damaging. But too little is dangerous, too. Sunrays generate Vitamin D, a substance that strengthens your immune system, protects against rickets, and combats osteoporosis, multiple sclerosis, rheumatoid arthritis, hypertension, diabetes and influenza.
Vitamin D is the most powerful anti-cancer agent ever discovered. Researchers say you should enjoy 20 to 30 minutes of sunshine before applying sunblock.
Not just our planet revolves around the Sun, but life itself. Through photosynthesis, plants convert sunlight into usable energy, kicking off the food chain and creating the foundation for the entire web of life.
The Sun is responsible for most of our energy, too. In "Chasing the Sun," Richard Cohen writes, "The Sun is the great self-renewing resource, the creator of coal, peat, oil, hydroelectricity, and natural gas. It raises moisture into the atmosphere, to return as the downpours that drive turbines; it powers the winds and the waves, and all their effects; it lavishes itself over the entire planet, delivering to the Earth's surface more energy in just forty-four minutes than we use in a year."
The Aztecs and Egyptians worshiped the Sun, as did the Persians, Incas and Tamils of southern India. Grand monuments to it still dot the globe, from the pillars of Stonehenge to the Great Pyramid at Giza to the temple ruins of Machu Picchu.
This is not surprising, really. Consider how many ways the Sun resembles the traditional image of a deity: It is a mysterious enigma, ever-present, powerful beyond measure, a giver of light, responsible for life on earth, yet too terrible to gaze at directly.
Sun worship stemmed from a fundamental truth: Without our nearest star, life on earth wouldn't exist.
Yet knowledge about the Sun was not easily won. We had to wait for the advent of the telescope and the scientific method. Isaac Newton, in fact, spent so much time studying the Sun that he had to shut himself in a darkened room to wait for the full return of his sight. It took three days.
Dutch philosopher Spinoza ground the mirrors for his own telescope – and died at 44, his lungs rotted from year of inhaling glass particles.
Early church authorities tried to strangle the science of astronomy in its cradle, insisting it undermined the Bible's geocentric view of the universe. Joshua commanded the Sun to stand still, not the Earth, thundered Martin Luther.
When Italian astronomer Giordano Bruno openly theorized that the Sun was a star and the universe might contain other worlds, he was promptly put to the stake. Galileo, the father of observational astrononomy, was forced to recant his heliocentric views and placed under lifelong house arrest. Scientists quickly got the message, privately declaring that it was better to be humble than hanged.
Progress and scientific understanding could not be stopped indefinitely, however. Today we know the Sun influences crop yields, global temperatures and ocean currents. Solar eruptions – caused by intense magnetic activity – affect the position and strength of the Gulf Stream, the frequency of auroras, the clarity of radio transmissions, the longevity of Earth satellites, the thickness of the atmosphere and the condition of the ozone layer.
The atoms that make up your body were forged in the heart of ancient suns. The iodine in your thyroid gland was fashioned from supernova material. The iron in your blood came from the cores of previous star generations. As Carl Sagan famously declared, we are star stuff contemplating star stuff.
The Sun is the lamp of the world, an awe-inspiring, life-giving ball of fire, a constant source of comfort and wonder. Throughout history, it has dominated art, language, religion and science. It is the great muse of artists, responsible for glorious sunsets, dazzling rainbows and the ethereal Northern Lights.
Yet there is much about the Sun we simply don't know. Scientists are still trying to understand what causes sunspots and solar winds, how its magnetic particles affect the Earth's climate and how the Sun's rays can be cost-effectively captured.
New spacecraft are even being designed to harness its power. Engineers are betting that some day – many years hence – it might be just the right fuel to carry us beyond our dying star's grasp and out of the solar system… in search of another Sun.

Biff, the bully from the Back to the Future movies, is in every way an iconic symbol of the big, bad bully some teens dealt with in school. For employers, the workplace bully can just as easily be receptionist Sally, and she may very well be costing the company thousands of dollars.
Workplace bullying happens frequently but many HR managers may be in the dark. About one-in-three (35%) of employees admitted they've had an office bully and more than one-quarter of HR managers say they think workplace bullying happens at least somewhat often at their company, according to recent research from the staffing firm OfficeTeam.
"Bullying can cost a company tens of thousands of dollars each year due to absenteeism, presenteeism and lost productivity, stress-related issues, and more," says Bert Alicea, a licensed psychologist and vice president of EAP and work/life services at Health Advocate. "When employees are distracted or upset due to bullying, they are not able to perform at their best, so bullying causes companies to lose potential income while negatively impacting employee morale."

In addition to lost productivity, low employee morale and a toxic company culture, office bullying can lead to higher turnover – increasing money spent on recruiting and training new talent. "And if the bully remains employed with the company while a high-performer departs, there is a high likelihood that the cycle will continue repeating," says Alicea.
According to similar research released earlier this year from the Workplace Bullying Institute, 37 million U.S. workers reported being subjected to "abusive conduct."
Some employers implement separate training for both supervisors and employees. "By making sure that managers can quickly identify potential issues and take steps to respond and intervene early on, it's possible to protect employees and stop the behavior," says Alicea.

Having a solid procedure in place, and adequate upfront training, is imperative to make sure bullying problems are nipped in the bud.
Training for all employees is "essential," Alicea notes. And during training, encourage employees to report incidents as soon as possible so situations can be handled within an appropriate time frame, he adds.
A written complaint form is also essential to document the incident and protect all involved, he says, while advising employers to have, if possible, several neutral people employees can report to. At a minimum, this form should include:
- A place to note the names of those involved.
- The place and time of the incident.
- An explanation of what happened.
Also, he adds, be sure to have an option for anonymous reporting. While harder to investigate and verify, bystander intervention is "critical" he says, as 40% of victims do not report bullying.
Who is the bully?
According to the WBI study, conducted every three to four years, the vast majority of bullies are men (69%). Male perpetrators seem to prefer targeting women (57%) more than other men (43%).
Also see: How EY improved EAP effectiveness, utilization
Female bullies were less "equitable" when choosing their targets for bullying, the study notes. Women bullied other women in 68% of cases.
"For employees, bullying frequently takes place via social media, email and other online communications," says Alicea. "Because of this, employers are introducing specific training to combat cyber-bullying and raise awareness of appropriate online etiquette."
Another benefit of providing anti-bullying training is it can also offer some legal protection for organizations if an employee files a lawsuit due bullying, he says.
"Training also ensures that all supervisors and employees fully understand the reporting procedures involved should an incident of bullying take place," he adds. "This will help employers' HR departments investigate and resolve issues more efficiently."

Book review How to Feed Your Kids
Feeding a healthy young infant is pretty straightforward: he shows hunger cues; you breastfeed him. You know that your breast milk is the healthiest choice for him, but once that cherubic little nurser grows older, figuring out the best approach to feeding him healthy foods becomes more complex. Babies' bodies mature at different rates. Children become little people with their own personalities. Food aversions are real. Doctors, friends, and family members all have something to say. Parents are confronted with all kinds of conflicting advice on foods, products, and techniques that can leave them baffled. Enter Katja Leccisi.
Katja most certainly understands how to aid busy parents who have questions about how to feed their children well: she has written an easy-to-read book outlining four simple steps that give parents the keys to healthy eating and peace at mealtimes! How to Feed Your Kids is written in brief chapters that can be easily completed in short reading spurts, which is very important to the typical over-extended parent.
As a La Leche League Leader and a nurse, I am frequently approached by parents worried about how, when, and what to feed their infants for the first time. Others are concerned about picky eaters and if their toddlers are getting enough of the "right" foods. Still others are searching for solutions to food battles at the dinner table. There are so many differing opinions out there about what to do, that the well-meaning parents I encounter are often confused about what strategies to use. This new book answers all their questions, giving parents valuable tools to employ, not only in conversations about food but in all aspects of respectful communication. At our LLL meetings, we always emphasize trusting your instincts and listening to what feels right for you and your family. The author's suggestions take into consideration different parenting styles and encourage parents to follow their own instincts when it comes to creating or implementing new routines.
Practical and easy to implement
The first page of each chapter begins with clearly organized bullet points to guide the reader through the components of each step. Katja's recommendations are practical and easy to implement. Her relaxed approach will help parents to stop worrying about how much of each nutrient their child needs and focus on the big picture. She presents some wonderful insights into gradually changing cooking and eating habits to reduce stress for the whole family.
Katja's expertise as both a parent and a nutritionist is apparent in every line of text. She employs carefully nuanced communication skills, cultivated as a La Leche League Leader, to assist parents in dealing with a child's "food personality" in a constructive manner. Her strategies to involve children of all ages in the entire process from shopping to cooking are admirable. She even addresses those children with unique feeding challenges that require specialized guidance. After reading this book, parents should be able to effortlessly implement a plan that can set their families down the road to healthy eating. Bon appetit!
Annie Brown is an LLL Leader in Greenwich-Stamford, CT, USA. She is a Family Nurse Practitioner and an International Board Certified Lactation Consultant.

Question about Akai PTH5498 54" Rear Projection HDTV-Ready Television
Posted by Lukethegreat on
I think my problem is similar, but there is a red line on the left of the screen and everything to the left of that is green. There is also some doublevision going on. I don't have any exprerience at all. Any help would be greatly appreciated ! Thanks
I'd say your convergence needs to be done. There is a user-level service convergence option, which will get your convergence good enough to be watchable. A really tight precision conversion requires a little more.
Also, turn off Scan Velocity Modulation. You probably need to go to the service menu for this.
With your tv off, press mute, then one, then eight, then two, then power on. You should not be in the service menu. Using the channel down buttons (or volume down, I forget which) go down to the "video options" choice. There are four, and I think it's the second one. One of them has the option to set VM level. Select this with volume down, then when you can change it, set it to zero. Now, keep hitting the menu button until you are back to the first screen. Now press the mute button twice. Now turn your tv off and back on. Now switch it out of "dynamic" picture mode (never use it).
To properly calibrate your tv, buy a copy of Digital Video Essentials.

text: The painting is dominated by Black Cloak Mahakala (Bernak Chen), the special protector for the tradition of the Black Hat Lamas. Originally the protector for the family of the Second Black Hat Lama, Karma Pakshi, the Black Cloak Mahakala is now associated with all of the Black Hat Lamas down to the present day. An inscription states that "Without error [this] painting of Five Deity [Mahakala] was painted by the hand of [Situ Panchen] Cho[-kyi] Jung[-ne]" (1699-1774). Its unusual appearance—specifically, the sensitive handling of the animals, such as the realistic depiction of the elephant in the bottom center—bears some resemblance to paintings attributed to the Tenth Karmapa, which certainly have inspired this work.
