LAHORE, Pakistan (AP) — A gunman on a motorcycle shot and severely wounded an elderly Swedish woman who worked at a church in eastern Pakistan on Monday, officials said.
The woman, who was identified by Pakistani police as Bargetta Emmi, was getting out of her car in front of her home in the city of Lahore when she was shot in the neck by an unknown assailant. Her servants reported the incident to police, said Pakistani police officer Malik Awais.
She was a director of FGA Church (Full Gospel Assemblies of Pakistan), Awais said.
Swedish Foreign Ministry spokesman Teo Zetterman confirmed en elderly Swedish woman was shot and severely wounded in Lahore. He said she was a volunteer worker in her 70s, but did not provide her name or where she worked.
The woman is a Swedish citizen but has lived and worked in Pakistan for several years, said Zetterman.
The gunman who shot Emmi escaped, and the motive was unclear.
Also in Lahore, gunmen on Monday desecrated over 100 graves of Ahmadis, members of a persecuted religious sect in Pakistan, said Awais, the police officer. More than a dozen gunmen held the caretakers of the graveyard hostage while they defaced the graves.
"You can't inscribe verses from the holy Quran on the graves. You are Ahmadis. You are not Muslims," one of the attackers told the caretakers, according to Awais.
Parliament amended Pakistan's constitution in 1974 to declare that Ahmadis were not considered Muslims under the law.
Ahmadis believe their spiritual leader, Hadrat Mirza Ghulam Ahmad, who died in 1908, was a messiah — a position rejected by the government in response to a mass movement led by Pakistan's major Islamic parties.
The Ahmadis' plight — along with that of Pakistan's other religious minorities, such as Shiite Muslims, Christians and Hindus — has deepened in recent years as hard-line interpretations of Islam have gained ground and militants have stepped up attacks against groups they oppose. Most Pakistanis are Sunni Muslims.
Also Monday, a roadside bomb ripped through a police van as it was patrolling on the outskirts of the northwestern city of Peshawar, killing two officers and wounding two others, said senior police officer Javed Khan.
Peshwar is on the edge of Pakistan's tribal region, the main sanctuary for Taliban militants in the country, and has been hit by frequent bombings over the past few years.
In the southern city of Karachi, a gunman riding on a motorcycle killed the leader of an Islamic seminary, sparking a riot by hundreds of seminary students, who stoned shops and set vehicles on fire, said police officer Azhar Iqbal.
Karachi has a long history of political, sectarian and ethnic strife, which has been on the rise this year.
Associated Press writers Louise Nordstrom in Stockholm, Adil Jawad in Karachi, Pakistan and Sebastian Abbot in Islamabad contributed to this report.

"Bridges so old, if they were human they'd be on Medicare," from the mouth of Labor Sec. Perez. I wish I was making this up. As you know, infrastructure has been an ongoing theme in this column. That's where the good jobs really are. With that in mind, we had another jobs Friday.
The unemployment rate dropped to 7.3% while the number was an underwhelming 169,000. It's not that bad, but there's no government jobs getting created. Normally that wouldn't be a cause to sweat other than the fact it's a reminder of the sequestration and ongoing debt ceiling drama. But the unemployment rate is going down only because there are less people in the work force. Where are these people? What are all the people doing who have given up looking for work? I wish I had an answer to that.
The July number was revised down to 172K from 188K but June dropped all the way from 162K to 104K. That's not good. If a president creates 8 million jobs in his term that's decent. For that to happen we need bare bones what we are doing right now. On a bell curve, what the economy is doing right now is at the low end of the normal range.
The next headline dominated the G20 meeting in Russia. Instead of talking finance, the key subject was the impending complicated situation going on in the Middle East.
Folks, this is turning into the most serious setup I've seen since the Yom Kippur war in 1973. I really don't like hyping or dramatizing situations, but this is serious. Whether Congress goes along with this or not and it's starting to look more like not, the president is now on record as comparing public sentiment to U.S. military action in WWII. As you remember the public kept FDR out for a very long time as it was very unpopular. FDR said it was in the best interests of the country. He was right. Right now the situation is really not comparable to WWII but vitally important nevertheless.
Best I can see, there is only one interest of national security involved here. The Syrians have violated a rule of war agreed to by the nations not to use chemical weapons and it appears the US and France are the only folks not in the region willing to stand up to the situation. If the president doesn't act he gets the reputation of being the modern day Neville Chamberlain. Aside from that we find it very distasteful to line up with rebels who might be Al Qaeda backed. Finally, this gets so convoluted and confusing there is the potential the Syrian government didn't even use chemical weapons; they may have been used by rebels to make it look like it was the Syrian government just to get the US in the door. Don't laugh, in a simpler time Hitler went across the border into Poland and made it look like the Poles actually attacked the Germans as his excuse to start WWII. If it were only destroying a stock of chemical weapons it would be one thing, but the potential for exponential expansion rises by the day.
The big report I heard is on a UK website called Mail Online where an Iranian diplomat said Obama's daughter will come to serious harm if this war goes through. They said a family member of every US minister, ambassador and military commander will be abducted and tortured. Do these people have such capability? Probably not, but the case of US journalist Daniel Pearl comes to mind. Someone probably will pay with their life.
Now we look at how many nations will be involved. We have the US, France, Turkey, Saudi Arabia, Syria, Israel, Russia, China and Iran just to name a few. It's starting to sound like a Who's Who.
So this is the backdrop over which we view these markets 162 months off the Internet bubble peak and now 234 weeks off the 2009 bottom. Remember some of these markets have also peaked 1,619 calendar days off that same 2009 bottom. Because we are dealing with such huge cycle points we have to take the potential for disaster in the markets and the world very seriously.
Previously, one of our proxies was the DAX which a week ago at this time was challenging an overhead gap. Last week the needle barely moved. Once again it's the CAC which is leading Europe to the upside. You can't like that if you are a bull.
Another major condition I'm watching is a developing divergence between the tech sector which is at the high end of the range again and the SPX/Dow which appears light years away. The NDX in particular is at a virtual triple top. Why is the SPX so far away? The culprit is housing which is struggling to hold the low end of the range. Housing has held a 61 day low for the past 2 weeks by the skin of its teeth and is trying to avoid experiencing a 3rd of a 3rd wave to the downside.

Between shed hunting and getting ready to plant spring food plots, we all have time to chase turkeys. This month, we will be featuring bonus articles from our crack staff at Turkey & Turkey Hunting. Use these insights to supplement your venison supply with fresh wild turkey!
Among all the gear some turkey hunters tote into the woods each spring, one of the most important things very well could be a good binocular for scanning fields and brush.
By Alan Clemons, Managing Editor
Binocs may not be as important if you're sitting on a small chufa patch or food plot, or in the woods. In those scenarios, a turkey often are close enough that you almost immediately can determine if it's a jake, longbeard or hen. Moving around to use your optics likely would be the kiss of death.
But in larger fields where birds may be loitering in the shade or a good distance away, or if you're slippin' and slinkin' around trying to find some birds, having some binoculars can be a lifesaver. If you're targeting longbeards, being able to quickly determine what's what can give you a leg up on a setup or Plan B to get closer to a gobbler.
I asked Trent Marsh with Hawke Optics for some suggestions on binoculars and a shotgun scope. Hawke makes some fine products at reasonable prices. Whether you're chasing turkeys or in a stand for whitetails later in autumn, having good glass definitely is a plus.
Marsh recommended three options: the Hawke Sapphire 8×25 compact, the Endurance 8×32 and the Nature Trek 8×32. You'll find multi-coated glass, a comfortable fit and the benefit of spying birds with minimal movements that could give away your location.
As for your shotgun scope, traditional optics to holographic sights provide turkey hunters with numerous options. One other to consider is Hawke's XB 1×32 crossbow scope. Now, don't wince or dismiss that out of hand just because it says "crossbow." These little scopes are tough, reliable and have a red dot reticle that works in bright or low light.
"The 1x … really is where it begins and ends as far as I'm concerned, " Marsh said. "It has all the upside of a red dot, with none of the downside. Superior eye relief (up to 9 inches), the ability to shoot with both eyes open and dual color illumination. Unlike a red dot though, the reticle is etched in the glass. You're not reliant on the illumination package, so if the battery goes dead, or the sun gets really bright (I hate when it does that), you still have a functioning scope.
"A bonus, because it is in a traditional scope chassis, is this features a lifetime warranty instead of the standard 1-year warranty on red dots. It's an awesome little piece. We are getting hammer with orders on it."
When you're getting ready for turkey season, don't forget your optics. They're a critical component of a good game plan for wily gobblers.

Deep within the deserts of Jordan lies the ancient city of Petra. Through a narrow gorge it emerges into view, revealing awe-inspiring monuments cut into the surrounding cliffs. What is this astonishing city? Who built it, and why?
Two thousand years ago, Petra stood at a crossroads of the ancient Near East. Camel caravans passed through, loaded with spices, textiles and incense from distant regions--and through such commerce, the city flourished. Its people, the Nabataeans, harnessed precious water, enabling the population to soar to perhaps 20,000.
The Nabataeans also erected monumental tombs, memorializing their kings and leaders. But over time political control changed, and so did trade routes. Eventually the city fell silent, forgotten by the outside world.
Today archaeologists are discovering clues to Petra's past. The spectacular objects displayed here, many unearthed by recent excavations, shed new light on this extraordinary desert city.
Petra drew the attention of early 19th-century European travelers through the remarkable published accounts of a Swiss explorer named Burckhardt.
The story of the city of Petra is veiled in mystery. It starts with a group of Arabian nomads called the Nabataeans, who led fruitful lives as desert traders.
Petra began as a gathering site for Nabataean traders carrying incense, spice and perfume along two major ancient caravan routes.
If shaping the natural world is a sign of civilization, the Nabataeans were one of the most civilized peoples of antiquity.
Despite the grandeur of its tombs and temples, Petra was above all a city of living people.
Although much has been learned about the Nabataeans in the last 20 years, their religious world remains hard to define.
For centuries Petra thrived in its remote valley, queen city of a rich and fiercely independent kingdom. But while it flourished, a superpower--Rome--gathered size and strength 1,500 miles to the west.
Petra has suffered many earthquakes during its long history. A quake on May 19, AD 363 seems to have struck Petra an especially heavy blow.
Two hundred years after Petra bowed to Roman rule, radical changes swept the empire.
With less than one-twentieth of the ancient city unearthed, new wonders constantly emerge at the hands of Jordanian, French, Swiss and American archaeologists.
Special Exhibition
Evocative color photographs taken by photojournalist Vivian Ronay between 1986 and 2003 document the Bdoul group of five sedentary Bedouin tribes living around the archaeological site of Petra in Jordan.

LOUISVILLE, Ky. — Shug McGaughey can check off just about every major accomplishment in 34 years of training horses.
He's in the Hall of Fame, he's won Breeders' Cup races, and in 1989 his horses finished second and third in the Kentucky Derby.
He just hasn't made it to the winners circle on the first Saturday in May, mostly because he rarely tries.
Orb could change all that.
The colt, whose name means globe, could be the post-time Derby favorite Saturday. He made a case for himself with a slick final workout at Churchill Downs on Monday. He drilled a half-mile in 47.80 seconds, getting the wags talking about how powerful he appeared.
"He's getting over this racetrack very well, which is important," said McGaughey, who is winless with six starters in the Derby.
The colt who won the Florida Derby impressed Bob Baffert, himself a Hall of Fame trainer and a three-time Derby winner.
"I love the way Orb moves over the ground," Baffert said. "He just floats. He looks the part."
Orb tied undefeated Verrazano atop the Derby points leaderboard that determines the maximum 20-horse field for the race. Orb would be just the second Derby starter for McGaughey since he saddled Easy Goer to a runner-up finish behind Sunday Silence in 1989. His other horse, Awe Inspiring, finished third that year.
"Obviously, I wished he'd won," McGaughey said. "Then I wouldn't have to be worrying about it all the time."
Sunday Silence went on to win the Preakness before Easy Goer turned the tables in the Belmont, thwarting his rival's Triple Crown bid with the upset.
Being from Lexington, the heart of Kentucky's horse country, McGaughey figured to be a regular Derby participant. He hasn't lost his thick Southern drawl despite years of working in New York for clients Stuart Janney and Ogden Mills "Dinny" Phipps, the first cousins who own Orb.
There's no Derby fever for these folks, though.
Orb will be the second Derby starter for both Janney and Phipps, whose previous entries were in 1988 and '89, respectively.
Their family wealth allows them to race the horses they breed; unlike the majority of current owners who are involved through partnerships that split up the exorbitant costs of the sport.
The cousins' grandfather, Henry Phipps, founded wealth management firm Bessemer Trust in 1907. Janney serves as chairman, while Dinny Phipps is its director. He also chairs The Jockey Club, the sport's governing body that registers thoroughbreds, while Janney is vice chairman.
Janney and Phipps are among the last links to the Whitney and Vanderbilt families, racing's blue bloods. Phipps' late father, Ogden, owned Easy Goer and undefeated Personal Ensign. Janney's parents owned star filly Ruffian.
"Their attitude is the same as mine — we're going to let the horse take us here," McGaughey said. "If Orb hadn't run good in the Florida Derby, we probably wouldn't have been here right now. I'll want to bring the right horse with the right running style and hopefully the right temperament that can handle the whole situation, and that's what we think we've got."
McGaughey last tried the Derby in 2002, when Saarland finished 10th. He never stops thinking about it, though.
"I'm very excited inside," he said in his typically low-key way, "but I'm probably not going to show it a whole lot outside."
Neither will Janney and Phipps, making the trio a perfect match.
At 62, McGaughey realizes time is running short on adding a Derby win to his résumé, but he has no regrets about not trying more often.
"I don't want to push one to get to the Derby that maybe doesn't deserve to be here and then look up in August and think, 'Golly, I wish I had given this horse some more time and he would have been good,' " the trainer said.
"Every year when we get a bunch of 2-year-olds, I'm hoping that one of them will be the horse that can give us the opportunity. All we want is the opportunity."

The house at No. 1049 Alameda del Corregidor fits in well with the rest of Lima's upper-middle-class neighborhood of La Molina. Partially screened from the street by a pair of olive trees, with a large garage and four floors on a plot of 500 square meters, the house is big enough to hold, say, a childcare center or a college-prep outfit, as it has for the past few years. Only a few bullet holes in the stucco bear witness to the fiery events of November 30, 1995. On that night, members of the DINCOTE, Peru's antiterrorism police force, fought a pitched battle with the inhabitants of the house. By morning, one person was dead, three critically wounded, four hostages rescued and twenty-one purported members of the Movimiento Revolucionario Túpac Amaru (MRTA) arrested. The prize catch was one of Peru's Most Wanted–Miguel Rincón Rincón, second in command of the MRTA, one of Peru's two armed guerrilla organizations.
Several other suspected associates were brought into the DINCOTE headquarters that night in a general roundup from other parts of Lima, including a middle-aged Panamanian and a young American woman. Within six weeks of her arrest, 26-year-old Lori Berenson would find herself center stage in one of the most heavily marketed terrorism trials of the year. Accused of "treason against the fatherland," of participating in a plot to attack the Peruvian Congress with a guerrilla organization, of transporting weapons and instructing militants, Berenson was convicted based on secret evidence by a panel of hooded military judges (in the manner prescribed by Peru's draconian 1992 antiterrorism law) and sentenced on January 11, 1996, to life in prison.
During the nearly five years of her incarceration, much has been written in the United States about Lori Berenson, on how the daughter of liberal, academic parents turned a youthful concern for social justice into a committed passion. Although there have been some reports focusing on Berenson's work with leftist organizations in Central America, little is known about the circumstances of her arrest in Peru. To many of her US supporters, Berenson's story features a good-hearted pacifist who makes a naïve wrong turn and finds herself the victim of a deeply unfair justice system.
But mention the name Lori Berenson to Peruvians, and the face most of them see in their minds is the one that appeared on their television sets on January 8, 1996, when she was presented to the press by the police, making her first public statement since her arrest. It was less what she said, defending the MRTA, than how she said it, her voice defiant, her eyes blazing. For most ordinary Peruvians, too exhausted after fifteen years of warfare to distinguish between sympathizers, guerrillas and terrorists, the contempt in that face was enough to convince them that Berenson was guilty. Of what, they didn't much care. In their version of the story, she is a Beauty who slouches from New York to Latin America, only to turn into a terrorist Beast, eyes wide open.
Now, documents have surfaced that shed light on Lori Berenson's case. These papers, never before seen by the public but obtained by The Nation in collaboration with Peruvian journalists, include a 100-page transcript of the police investigation of Berenson and her co-defendants (called "Atestado Nro. 140–DIVICOTE II-DINCOTE"), and Berenson's signed fifteen-page interrogation. Together they appear to compose the DINCOTE's complete record of her case (minus the exhibits), which, as in all cases of terrorism in Peru, has been unavailable even to her lawyers.

Ypsilanti State Hospital (Ypsilanti, Michigan, USA)
Ypsilanti (Michigan, USA) State Hospital was the location of Civilian Public Service Unit No. 90, which opened in March 1943 and closed in October 1946. Of the 75 men, 25 were in relief training for foreign relief service. In addition to the men in the unit, an average of 35 women (wives and friends of the men) worked in the hospital. In the summers of 1944-45 Mennonite service units in which 51 young women were enrolled also served the institution. A large, modern, well-equipped, progressive institution, the hospital offered the Mennonite unit a satisfactory service experience. Much of the credit for the outstanding work of the hospital and for the excellent relations between the unit and the hospital was given to its superintendent, Dr. O. R. Yoder, a former Mennonite and graduate of Goshen College. The hospital continued to use conscientious objectors after the war and in 1958 was employing eight Mennonite young men who were doing their alternative (I-W) service here. Unit No. 90 published a yearbook entitled Ypsi.

technology could make rebooting your computer a thing of the past, and may allow PC users to transfer and download large files - such as digital movies - in a few seconds, rather than hours.
Researchers at the University of Houston developed and patented the memory technology, and today announced that Sharp Corp. has exclusively licensed the technology. UH researchers are working with Sharp's subsidiary, Sharp Laboratories of America in Camas, Wash., to develop commercial applications.
"With current computers, if you turn the power off and then turn it back on, you lose whatever
you haven't saved, and you have to reboot, or restart, your system from the beginning," says
Alex Ignatiev, director of the Texas Center for Superconductivity and Advanced Materials at the University of Houston and one of the developers of the new technology. "Our type of memory is nonvolatile, which means if you turn the power off, everything is still there. You turn your computer back on and it's right where you left off."
The UH researchers have fabricated and tested individual thin film memory elements made of a material called perovskite. The elements can be electrically programmed to change their
resistance, becoming more or less resistive to the passage of electricity. Ignatiev says a commercial memory product using this material would incorporate many thousands or millions of such elements arranged in an array resulting in a resistive memory chip, which would be made to be compatible with current PCs.
This new resistive memory technology may be the next generation of mainstream computer
memory, says Victor Hsu, director of the integrated circuits process technology laboratory at
Sharp Laboratories of America.
"Once integrated into a computer, this type of memory could be ideal for multimedia and
broadband applications, allowing PC users to download information from the Internet at very
high speeds, and allowing much faster processing of high-volume information such as video and graphics," Hsu says.
"We believe once it is fully developed into a commercial chip it will be less expensive than current memory technology." Ignatiev presented information about the technology in November 2001 in San Diego at the 2nd International Nonvolatile Memory Conference. He will present the latest developments of the Sharp Labs collaboration at the International Joint Conference on the Applications of Ferroelectrics 2002, to be held May 28-June 1 in Japan.
Current PCs have two basic kinds of memory. Random access memory, or RAM, is the active
memory, controlled by computer chips, that allows users to run programs, open files and process data, but it does not save information if power is turned off. Mass memory storage, such as the hard drive, permanently stores files and data but operates slowly. Ignatiev says the new resistive random access memory technology could theoretically replace both kinds of memory.
"This resistive memory is a constant, permanent memory, but it's fluid as well, capable of rapidly storing information of any kind in a nonvolatile way," he says. "And it's all electronic, with no mechanical parts such as those used in hard drives to read and store data."
In developing the technology, Ignatiev and his UH colleagues Shangquing Liu and Naijuan Wu
worked with very thin films of perovskite oxides called manganites. When these thin films are
exposed to electrical pulses their resistive properties can be rapidly changed, becoming more or less resistive to the passage of electricity. In other words, their resistance can be programmed, Ignatiev says.
The UH researchers capitalized on the perovskite's unique resistive properties and developed an electrical switching process so that the material could be used to store and retrieve bits of
information. The UH research initially was funded by NASA and by the State of Texas through the Texas Center for Superconductivity and Advanced Materials, a NASA Commercial Space Center at the University of Houston. The project now is supported by Sharp Laboratories of America.
Sounds interesting, what do you think?

Earlier this year OCZ Technology introduced the Fatal1ty 1000 Watt power supply, a high-performance PSU targeted at gamers and enthusiasts seeking for maximum wattage, and a modular cabling configuration. As it names suggests, the PSU was co-developed with world champion Johnathan "Fatal1ty" Wendel to meet the needs of fellow gamers in performance.
The PSU is featuring individually-sleeved modular cables to eliminate unnecessary wire clutter for a cleaner overall presentation and better airflow in high end systems that are packed with components.
It is combining a single +12V rail and high-quality components and promises to offer a continuous output at a 50°C ambient temperature, as it uses Japanese 105°C capacitors along with protection circuitries for reliability and stability. Key features include a temperature and load controlled 140mm double ball-bearing fan with red LEDs, well-regulated electrical noise and ripple, and 80 Plus Gold certification with up to 90% efficiency at typical loads.
The Fatal1ty Series offers a complete array of connectors including detachable CPU, and multiple PCIe, SATA, and peripheral cables. It also provides universal input and active PFC (Power Factor Correction) to regulate input voltage and maintain a stable supply of power in an ATX form factor to accommodate virtually all computer towers.
Newegg had the best price for the specific PSU at the time of writing this article, as the unit is listed for $230.

Spotlight on women in diplomacy: UNITAR launches a new Online Discussion Platform [1]
What challenges do women face in diplomacy today and how can we work together when applying a gender perspective in national and international arenas? These are some of the questions that delegates, government officials, NGO professionals and negotiators from all over the worlddiscussed during the United Nations Institute for Training and Research's (UNITAR) Online Discussion Forum focusing on Women in Diplomacy..
115 people from 47 different countries had signed up to take part in the discussions that were conducted on the Platform from 22 October to 6 November.
The 2012 Secretary-General's Five-Year Action Agenda underlines the importance of promoting women's political participation. Active participation of women in decision-making positions is crucial to achieving equality, development and peace. However, despite women's growing participation, the number of women in senior level positions in capital and international civil service positions falls short in terms of equal gender balance. By establishing an Online Platform for discussion, the United Nations Institute for Training and Research (UNITAR), in collaboration with the United Nations Entity for Gender Equality and the Empowerment of Women (UN Women), the Directorate of Energy & Climate Change of the United Arab Emirates Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Women's Environment & Development Organization (WEDO) and Global Gender and Climate Alliance (GGCA), aimed to enhance awareness of the roles of women and the importance of gender equality in diplomacy today.
UN Assistant Secretary-General and UNITAR Director ad Interim Sally Fegan-Wyles, said: "It is very encouraging to see the growing recognition of the value women bring to peace negotiations and to diplomacy in general. This reflects what I have observed over many years. Men and women approach the same issue in different ways, and both perspectives are useful and complimentary. We need to ensure that women have the knowledge, skills and confidence to bring their most valuable contribution to the table."
Commenting on the online discussion, Anne Marie Goetz, Chief of the Women Peace and Security Section at UN Women and one of the moderators of the discussion, said "UN Women sees its engagement in this discussion as an opportunity to identify good practices that have opened meaningful positions in foreign services to women as well as means toenhance the role of women diplomats in conflict prevention and conflict resolution. We also aim tohighlight the value-added that women bring to decision making processes."
Two moderated discussions were conducted. The first focused on women in diplomacy in national and international arenas. The second on women in climate change negotiations as an example of how women's engagement in diplomacy has worked in the past, and how it can be enhanced and accelerated in the future.
The Online Discussion Platform is the first step in a series of initiatives led by UNITAR to empower women in diplomacy through capacity building.

NEW ORLEANS (AP) — A state judge in Crowley has ordered the Vermilion Parish sheriff to provide records to a nonprofit group of immigrants detained since 2009.
The Southern Poverty Law Center has asked 63 Louisiana sheriffs for such records, to see whether people held for Immigration and Customs Enforcement officials after arrests on other charges were jailed without bond longer than federal law allows.
"Other groups throughout the country are investigating this process, these immigration detainers — when Immigration or ICE asks local or county sheriffs to hold individuals ... suspected of being not U.S. citizens," said Meredith Stewart, staff attorney for the law center.
She said the agency can have people listed for deportation — or even just suspected of violating immigration law — detained for up to 48 hours.
"There's a lot of controversy about whether it's legal, whether it's a burden on local sheriffs, the frequency of people being over-detained without charges against them," Stewart said.
Vermilion Sheriff Michael Couvillon was among 15 Louisiana sheriffs who refused to return over their records, contending that doing so would violate privacy.
The group sued Couvillon. Stewart said Tuesday that he gave the group access to the records late last week, after being ordered to by state District Judge Herman Clause.
The other 14 sheriffs are from all around the state but, like Couvillon, are represented by the Usry, Weeks & Matthews law firm, Stewart said.
The firm did not immediately return a call to ask about the other 14 sheriffs' plans.
New Orleans was not asked to turn over documents because attorneys focused elsewhere in the state, Stewart said.
She said 48 sheriffs "did comply or are in the process of complying or we are working with them," she said.
Few are electronic records.
"We're still piling up paper. We've gotten a lot of documents had have a lot of reviewing to do," she said.

Here's something that, if it works as advertised, is a very useful and practical advancement over present technology, with several real-world applications. It is also something for which I, and most people, will have no practical use. I want it anyway. You will, too.
It's a very thin, flat, hand-held… microscope. It uses tiny lenses on glass plates that record equal-sized image slices of whatever they're seeing (with the slices stitched together by computer for the final image), and unlike typical scanning microscopes, this one uses multiple lenses to take all the shots at the same time, so you don't have to wait for slow scanning to get the picture. One swipe and you're good. And it's pocketable; you can just carry it around and have it at the ready whenever you need to, um, scope something.
The developer, the Fraunhofer Institute for Applied Optics and Precision Engineering IOF in Germany, is pitching it as a way to detect melanomas by just scanning them with the device and taking high-resolution images of the cells. It's also being suggested as a way to verify official documents. But any true nerd will want one just to take scans of practically anything, just because. Come on — I know you used to stick everything you could find under the lens of the microscopes in the lab at school. Bugs, food, fingernails, saliva. Everyone does. You know you're a nerd when, many years later, you'd still do it, and you want to own something like this.
You can't buy it yet, but the prototype is being shown off at a trade show in Munich this month. It's about two years off from production, and there's no indication that it'll either be affordable or available to "regular" people. Probably not, at least at first. But if it is, I want one. I have no practical use for it, but just being able to pull this device out and take high-res microscopic images of whatever happens to be laying around would be endlessly entertaining.

CINCINNATI, OH (FOX19) - UPDATE: New information has been revealed on the investigation of three local dogs who died after coming down with a sudden illness.
According to the dogs' owners, the Norwood pet care facility where they stayed and veterinarians, none of the local dogs ate food recently put on a voluntary recall list by Procter & Gamble.
The mysterious illness has pet owners puzzled. Veterinarians now say a new virus seems to be the most likely cause, and it does not appear to be an ongoing epidemic.
All of the affected dogs recently stayed at The Pet Spot in Norwood.
Earlier this month, three dogs showed symptoms of violent rectal bleeding and vomiting. All three died in a matter of days.
The Pet Spot temporarily closed its daycare on Friday while the owners waited to hear from the Ohio Veterinarian's Office and the Department of Agriculture to determine the appropriate date to reopen the daycare.
Around the same time, P&G voluntarily recalled a variety of Iams and Eukanuba dry pet foods. Over the weekend, The Pet Spot owner told us in an email, "We isolated every bag of the food we had on hand at the time of the recall and have been able to confirm it was not part of the recall."
A representative from MedVet, the veterinary clinic that treated the dogs, sent an email to one pet owner saying, "From what we know, it does not appear that the P&G food recall is involved at all."
Meanwhile, veterinarians have asked experts at Ohio State University to help figure out what caused these dogs to die.
Late Monday, The Pet Spot announced on Facebook that all of the veterinarian infectious disease tests have come back clean, as well as tests done on the facility's food and water.
Once final results come in, The Pet Spot believes they will reopen on Monday, August 26.
Our previous report from 8/16/13:
FOX19 is investigating a possible link between the deaths of three Cincinnati area pets and a massive, voluntary pet food recall.
Three dogs died this week who shared two common denominators.; they all stayed at a local pet daycare and they all ate a type of pet food that was recalled by P&G on Wednesday.
According to Pet Spot, six dogs at their facility showed symptoms of HGE. Three of the dogs died, three took ill.
MedVet, a pet hospital in Madisonville, is waiting on test results to confirm that the illness that caused the deaths and illness of those dogs was HGE. Results were expected Friday but may not be available until sometime next week.
Hemorrhagic gastroenteritis (HGE) is a disease of dogs characterized by sudden vomiting and bloody diarrhea. The symptoms are usually severe, and HGE can be fatal if not treated. HGE is most common in young adult dogs of any breed, but especially small dogs. It's not contagious.
The three dogs who died this week all stayed at Pet Spot, dog care facility in Norwood, Ohio. One of those dogs was Mr. Benson, FOX19 Morning Meteorologist Frank Marzullo's 4-year-old dog.
The owner of Pet Spot, Jeff Voelpel, posted a statement on the daycare's Facebook page, indicating that the shop will be closed from Friday, August 16 until Monday, August 19 in light of recent stomach illnesses. The daycare plans to reopen on Tuesday, August 20.
According to Pet Spot, all six of the dogs who were sick ate a type of dog food on the recall list, released by P&G on Wednesday.

Jan 4, 2012
Would you imagine that it's possible to make a game about a God smiting humans as fast as possible without it being tasteless? Well, the team at Bulkypix took that challenge and have succeeded. Babel Rising is daring in concept, cute and hilarious in execution — pun intended.
In Babel Rising you play as a god, and the humans over which you rule have had enough. As in the biblical story of Babel, they decide to build a tower up to the heavens, to meet with you and ask what the deal is with life, the universe, and everything. But, you are a vengeful god and want none of that. So the goal of the game is to kill the humans before they can build their tower high enough to reach you in the sky. You have a variety of mystical powers at your disposal, all reminiscent of those events which we refer to as Acts of God. There is Lightning, Wind, Flood, a Rain of Fire, and Earthquakes. These all take varying amounts of time to load, you so must be strategic in your use of them. There is however also the Finger of God, which you can use to smite the humans one at a time. A simple tap and the little builder falls apart bloodlessly. Each of the other attacks have a specific gesture that commands it, and there is finally a bonus attack where you can destroy a level of the tower with one blast from the god's eye. And again, you would assume that a game like this would verge into tasteless territory, but I'd have to say that your mileage on that will vary. The tiny humans are cute and merely look surprised when they fall apart or are swept away by a wave.
The developers have also made sure that the game will not get old quickly. There are four modes of play, and each is different. Classic is the version I mentioned above. Divine is the same game, but now Lightning is your fastest power, and you have the new power of the Burning Bush (lighting it sets the nearest humans on fire). The next option is Fury, and this time the workers are immune from some attacks, depending on their type. They are actually meant to be damned souls trying to escape from Hell, which explains why they might be resistant to lightning. And the final mode is Campaign. Each stage sets you with a specific goal to complete before you can advance to the next. An example is a countdown clock during which you have to smite as many humans as you can. You can also earn coins which you use to increase the strength and range of your attacks.
The coolest thing about the game, in my opinion, is the simple fact that no matter what the humans will get to the top. The game will just fill the screen with builders until the point that you simply cannot stop them from building. You can become incredibly skilled at slowing them down with your weapon use, but no matter what, the humans will eventually reach the top. Rather than being discouraging, it is instead exciting as you see how long you can hold them off for.
The game is a little buggy at times. On a few occasions it has thrown so many little men at me that it can't render its own handiwork and freezes. I've lost entire game files to that error; the men were all frozen in place and I was unable to kill them. I was forced to begin a new game to get around it. very frustrating. In fact, as I was playing the game while writing this review the game froze and even after I exited, the music continued to play. It was a bit eerie, hearing the little builders continuing their word behind the scenes.

The Environmental and Conservation Organization will have its seventh annual Green Homes and Edible Gardens Tour on Saturday with seven noteworthy stops to educate tour participants on solar installations, small-house design, sustainable agriculture, urban community gardening and more.
The Environmental and Conservation Organization will have its seventh annual Green Homes and Edible Gardens Tour on Saturday with seven noteworthy stops to educate tour participants on solar installations, small-house design, sustainable agriculture, urban community gardening and more.
Homeowners and gardeners will be at each stop on the self-driving tour to answer questions, conduct tours and tell their stories.
Among them will be John and Nicole Mahshie, whose Veterans Healing Farm provides a communal gardening experience for veterans and civilians in a pastoral setting off Highway 64. Their garden of 27 rows, each 50 feet long, embraces many sustainable farming techniques, "a variety of schools of thought integrated," as John Mahshie describes it.
He began the experimental garden last year, and this is the first official year of Veterans Healing Farm as an organization aimed at helping veterans transition from military to civilian life.
A veteran of the Air Force, Mahshie sees a real need for ways to ease veterans back into civilian life. After obtaining a certificate in horticulture from Blue Ridge Community College and cultivating gardens of his own, he sees gardening as a way to provide physical, emotional and spiritual health.
"In our culture," he said, "it's so easy to be isolated."
Veterans, he thinks, especially those combat veterans who have faced death and dying, benefit from a chance "to cultivate and nurture life." He cites the high suicide rate (22 per day according to Stars and Stripes) among veterans who often feel disconnected and bereft of the sense of community they felt among fellow soldiers while enlisted.
Many groups that aid veterans concentrate on helping them find jobs or financial security, but, as Mahshie sees it, there are many more facets that need to be addressed so veterans can cope well with all aspects of their lives, besides just finances.
Of the 17 families who are members of the farm this year, there is a mix of veterans and civilians, "cross-pollination," as Mahshie calls it. A "healthy balance" is achieved, he believes, when the group is composed of people from all walks of life. There is an assimilation of people with different backgrounds, political viewpoints and religious beliefs.
"When we share a meal, break bread together, there is so much we have in common," he said.
Friendships evolve out of this shared sense of community and common interest in gardening despite individual differences — a lot like the way the military works.
The group gets together every Sunday for a potluck dinner in the grassy area by the garden where there are tables, a grill and fire pit and room for children — including the Mahshies' own daughters, Anna-Joy, 5, and Penelope, 18 months — to run and play.
Many aspects of Veterans Healing Farm are "naturals" for an environmentally focused garden tour. For instance, the Mahshies use a permaculture technique called Hugelkultur, a centuries-old Eastern European technique of planting on a high mound of soil covering logs that slowly decay, providing organic matter to the roots of the plants growing above.
John Mahshie's mound contains eight plants, including blueberries and green beans. The height of the mound lends itself, he said, to picking produce from a wheelchair without having to bend to do so.
Other sustainable techniques of the rest of the garden include wood chips as mulch to keep down the weeds, wide rows, drip irrigation, companion planting to keep down pests, and crop rotation.
"It's not technically organic," Mahshie said of their garden, "but it uses many organic practices."
With all of the techniques put into practice, the garden has proven so self-sustaining that there has been little maintenance, the Mahshies say. They had planned to have a weeding schedule among members, but have not found it necessary.
Heirloom tomato plants taller than John Mahshie's own 6-foot frame are loaded with fruit. The heirloom plants were grafted onto hybrid plant root stock, Mahshie said, which means that their yield is three times what one would normally get from an heirloom plant.
The garden contains more than 20 different fruits and vegetables, with multiple varieties of each to protect against blights and other potential devastations. As these summer crops play out, about 20 more will be put in for harvest into the fall.
Nearby on the property are newly planted fruit trees, berry vines and an organic hops yard.
Besides a place for veterans to connect back to everyday life, "it's also for civilians transitioning into sustainability," Mahshie said.
Many of the members are novice gardeners, he said, adding "I love to teach and to share."
Mahshie displays a passion for gardening and believes it encourages healthful practices all the way around, including eating well, getting physical exercise and connecting to nature.
"You have a soul and a spirit experience, regardless of what you call it," he said of spending time outdoors.

READING, Pa. - The fired former director of a now-shuttered eastern Pennsylvania school for troubled students was charged Friday with inciting a riot at the school in a bid to get his job back.
Andre Bean, former director of Delaware Valley High School in Reading, and a second fired staffer told students to act up in school and disobey the new staff so they would be brought back, according to court documents. Bean allegedly offered jewelry and trips to an amusement park as an incentive.
Reading police were called to the school on Sept. 21 to quell a melee. Five students were found delinquent for their role.
Bean, 39, of Whites Creek, Tenn., was charged Friday with felony riot, corruption of minors, obstruction of justice, reckless endangerment and other offenses. He was permitted to remain free while his case proceeds.
The Reading School District canceled its $1.1 million contract with the school last month. The company's owner has filed a lawsuit against Bean, alleging he and other staffers urged students to cause damage. Bean has called the claim "ridiculous," "wild" and "defamatory."
No one picked up the phone at a listing for Bean in Tennessee.

|Scope: Global
Language: English
|Scientific Name:
|Latidens salimalii Thonglongya, 1972
Common Name(s):
|Red List Category & Criteria:
|Endangered B1ab(iii)+2ab(iii) ver 3.1
|Year Published:
|Date Assessed:
|Molur, S. & Vanitharani, J.
|Hutson, A.M., Racey, P.A. (Chiroptera Red List Authority) & Cox, N. (Global Mammal Assessment Team)
Listed as Endangered because its area of occupancy is less than 500 km² and extent of occurrence is less than 5000 km², with all individuals in severely fragmented locations, and a continuing decline in its habitat quality.
|Previously published Red List assessments:
|Range Description:
|This species is endemic to India and is presently known from localities in Periyar Tiger Reserve in Kerala State and in Kalakkad-Mundunthurai Tiger Reserve, Kardana Coffee Estate, Megamalai, High Wavy Mountains in Tamil Nadu State (Molur et al. 2002, Vanitharani et al. 2005). Its occurrence in Uppinangadi in Karnataka reported by R. Krishnan and A. Chakravorty (pers. comm. to Molur et al. 2002) requires verification and is therefore not considered here for the assessment. It has been recorded from elevations of 800 m to 1,100 m asl. The extent of occurrence of this species is 101-5,000 km² and the area of occupancy is 501-2,000 km² (Molur et al. 2002). More specifically, Vanitharani et al. (2004) calculate the extent of occurrence as being around 1,100 km² based on the location of roosts, while they calculate the area of occupancy as 10.05 km² based on the estimate by Singaravelan and Marimuthu (2003) of a foraging distance of 0.8 km from the roost

|The abundance, population size and trends for this species are poorly known. However, Agoramoorthy (2000) and Singaravelan and Marimuthu (2003) note populations of 250-350 individuals of this species in the caves they observed. Vanitharani et al. (2004) report counting 50-400 bats in day and night roosts. In the recent past there has been observed a significant decline in its population (Molur et al. 2002).
|Current Population Trend:
|Additional data:
|Habitat and Ecology:
|It is a cave dwelling bat that is very sensitive to disturbance (Vanitharani et al. 2004). The species is found in montane evergreen forest and coffee/cardamom plantations (Molur et al. 2002, Vanitharani et al. 2004). The fig it eats has been identified as Ficus racemosa, but Vanitharani et al. (2004) infer from nuts from the roost that the bat also feeds on the fruits of Eleaocarpus serratus, E. tuberculatus and Dichapetalum gelanioides.
|Major Threat(s):
|This species is threatened by hunting for local consumption as traditional medicine, for extraction of oil to cure asthma and disturbance to roosting sites by humans in High Wavy Mountains (Molur et al. 2002, Vanitharani et al. 2004). Tree cutting in coffee estates where permanent roosts are identified is a major threat (Molur et al. 2002, Singaravelan and Marimuthu 2003).
|Conservation Actions:
|This is the only fruit bat to be accorded the highest form of protection under the Schedule I of the Indian Wildlife (Protection) Act, amended in 2006 (S. Molur pers. comm. 2008). The species has been recorded from protected areas including Kalakkad-Mundunthurai National Park in Tamil Nadu and Periyar Tiger Reserve in Kerala. Thorough survey, ecology, population monitoring, habitat assessment, foraging distances and public awareness among the local tribal people is urgently recommended. There is a need to identify key roosting sites and to protect these localities.

The visual ministry at a Northwest Side church with a long history but a new name has come up with a winner, in the eyes of the Rev. Mike Pratt.
The visual ministry at a Northwest Side church with a long history but a new name has come up with a winner, in the eyes of the Rev. Mike Pratt.
A large work by Easton-area artist Jeremy Jarvis now decorates the lobby of the Family Life Center of Bethel International United Methodist Church, whose members decided a while ago to add the word international to the name to reflect the growing diversity of the neighborhood.
"It couldn't be a better focal point as people enter our Family Life Center," Pratt said last week.
"It draws together in a worldly fashion who we are as a body of Christ. The colors and the design are just captivating," he said.
"I want someone as they walk into the church to feel caught, in a sense -- caught in the web of God's love."
Pratt has been the minister of the congregation for almost four years. The church was established in 1842, according to the church website, and subsequently erected the first building on the site of what is now the Refectory Restaurant and Bistro. The church is now at 1220 Bethel Road.
The decision to commission a piece of art for the entryway of the church where the contemporary service is held came out of the Artistic Task Force Judy Tackett and Sheryl Stoll formed after Tackett, a Clintonville resident, took over as chairwoman of the visual ministry.
"I was the natural choice to get involved with the Artistic Task Force, and that came about because we wanted to make some changes to our Family Life Center," Tackett said.
"We decided that the first thing we wanted to do was make a warm, inviting welcome to people coming into that part of the church," she said.
"We wanted to have a signature piece that gave a warm welcome to anyone coming in."
But how to be warm and welcoming? What should the piece look like?
Those were vexing questions, until they answered themselves.
"The subject matter itself sort of came to us during the process," Tackett said. "It was sort of inspirational."
The inspiration came while she was sitting in the sanctuary and glanced up at one of the stained-glass windows.
"That's what I was visualizing, something that was similar to what we had in that part of the church," Tackett said.
At first, she and Stoll contemplated having a stained-glass window on the entry wall, but that would have been too heavy. So they decided to find an artist who could replicate a stained-glass window in a painting or mural.
"Once we had that idea in mind, and just that, I contacted the Columbus College of Art and Design," Tackett said. "It was very important for us to use local people."
Expecting students to respond, the task force members were surprised when two graduates of CCAD, including Jarvis, got in touch, went through interviews and submitted designs.
Jarvis, according to his website, grew up in the southeast Michigan town of Romeo. He attended the School of the Art Institute of Chicago and then the Columbus College of Art and Design.
His work appears in private collections throughout the United States and as far away as Africa, the site states.
"They were both good, but his met more what we had in mind," Tackett said.
"I really enjoy working with churches and producing work for churches," Jarvis said.
"Being that I'm a Christian myself, it fits in pretty well with what I like to do with my art," he said.
"Technically, I really wanted to replicate the look of stained glass," Jarvis said.
"The church has a lot of stained glass in their building and that's a really important thing for them. It turned out great as far as I was concerned."
And as far as members of the congregation are concerned, Tackett said.
"Anytime you try to do something with a church, especially one that size, you're prepared for the naysayers, but we absolutely haven't had that," Tackett said.
"It's been amazing," she said. "I felt very blessed to have this happen. It's gotten me more involved in the church all the way."
"It has that eternal quality to it," Pratt said. "It will have that same effect of catching people 50 years from now as it does today."

By Nancy Snow, Science of Virtues scholar
Landscapes of Hope: The 'What,' 'Why,' and 'How' of Hope
Hope is a virtue studied by surprisingly many
disciplines. My research reviews
disciplinary literature on hope, with the aims of describing an integrated
conception of hope that spans these literatures, and arguing that the core of
this conception can be considered an Aristotelian-type virtue.
Integrated conception of hope: 'Hope' can refer both to an attitude toward particular
ends and to a general disposition. To
hope for a particular end is to perceive it as a good, desire it, regard its
occurrence as uncertain – either probable or possible – and use imagination and
agency in efforts to attain it. We can
also describe hope as the general disposition of 'hopefulness' – a dynamic
orientation toward the future, characterized by the general expectancy of
positive outcomes and openness toward future possibilities, even when those
possibilities outstrip our conceptual repertoire. As with hope for particular ends, imagination
and agency animate and inform hopefulness.
Hope has a complex and positive emotional tone, and is at home among a
network of other emotions and emotionally toned mental states. Hope is social in nature in the sense that
individual hopers are aided and abetted by social support. Hope's motivational force can be
profound. People who lack hope seem to
lack zest for life. In a deep sense,
then, hope, both in the sense of hope for particular ends, but especially in
the sense of hopefulness, seems to be a sine
qua non of human life and agency.
Hope's pragmatic rationality lies in its ability to motivate us despite
sometimes overwhelming odds, though its ability to do this can be epistemically
irrational. Hope has a religious or
spiritual dimension that can enable hopers to transcend the difficulties of
their situation, especially the feeling of entrapment or captivity. Hope in all of its complexity has been widely
found to be beneficial to persons suffering from physical and mental illness,
whether in the process of recovery and cure, in the ongoing management of
chronic illness, or in the context of palliative care for terminal illness.
In the Christian tradition, hope is a
central theological virtue, along with faith and love. Hope has an eschatological dimension, pulling
Christians toward an afterlife with God, and energizing believers to work for
the kingdom of God on earth. The logic
of hope follows the logic of Christ's death and resurrection: in moments of
despair, entrapment, or captivity, hope appears to believers as a manifestation
of God's redeeming grace, reminding us of the horizon beyond human time and of
possibilities beyond those immediately knowable in the present. For Jews during the Holocaust, God's voice
commanded them to hope; for post-Holocaust Jews, God's command is the imperative
to nurture and affirm their Jewishness, for in doing so, they deny the triumph
of evil over the chosen people of God.
Anthropological studies show that hope
can be a method of knowing. As such, it
is a disposition of cognitive openness to new ideas, enabling the knower to
have flexibility and receptivity, as well as patience, resilience, and
perseverance. Ethnographic studies of
hope across cultures teach us that hope is deeply embedded in cultural
traditions and contexts. How hope is
conceptualized, as well as its potential efficacy, depends upon the cultural
assumptions and frameworks in which it is embedded. Pragmatic social hope, which extols the
American democratic vision, is embedded in the cultural and political
traditions of the United States.
Philosophers and cultural theorists maintain that expanding democracy
can both result from and foster hope across the globe. An important function of societies is to
distribute hope to their members, thereby creating nations of carers. When societies fail to distribute hope,
nations of worriers can result. The
capacities of societies to distribute hope can be weakened by the forces of
global capitalism, yet economic growth can, in some cases, foster hope and
confidence. Hope can be nurtured in both macro- and
micro-institutional contexts, and can be used to overcome fear in societies.
Various hope theorists regard hope as
an innate feature of the human psychological economy, though some regard it as
purely learned. A middle view is the
notion that hope is both innate and shaped by environmental factors. A depth psychological account of hope locates
it deep within human consciousness, but acknowledges that how we hope is shaped
by our material circumstances. A
distinction can be made between conceptions or definitions of hope, and modes
of hoping. Twelve such modes have been
identified in hope literature, with the suggestion that all of these modes are
to be found in actual hopers.
tenets of hope: The core of the integrated conception
– what is essential to hope – can be expressed in thirteen tenets:
Hope is both innate and socially
learned or shaped, where what is meant by saying that "hope is innate" is that
hope has a neurophysiological basis in human beings, but is brought to
expression through the interplay of biological factors with environmental,
including social, influences.
How hope is conceptualized and how people
hope, that is, modes of hoping, are contextualized within social, cultural, and
religious frameworks.
The structure of hope is that it is a
belief/desire complex, where one desires some 'X,' and believes it possible,
but not certain, that one will attain it.
This structure is teleological and
forward-aiming; hope moves us toward some future goal.
The ends for which we hope are
sometimes difficult, requiring effort, resilience, and perseverance.
Hope is a powerful motivator, spurring
hopers on to achieve their specific goals.
Hopefulness, or dispositional hope, is
an attitude of openness to future possibilities. It is the sine
qua non of a life of vigor, vitality, and engagement.
Good hoping contributes to effective
personal agency.
Hope is positively emotionally toned,
and clusters with other positive emotions and mental states, as well as with
motivating traits such as resilience and perseverance.
10. Hope can offer its possessors many diverse benefits.
11. Hope is strongest when socially supported.
12. Societies are important distributors of hope.
13. There are different modes of hoping, that is, ways in which
people hope, some of which have been identified by hope theorists.
Next on
the agenda: Hope has traditionally been regarded
as a theological and/or moral virtue.
The next steps in my research agenda are to spell out how and why hope
is a moral virtue and argue that it is also a civic and intellectual
virtue. As well, I will investigate
pathways for cultivating hope, and examine the phenomenon of false hope.

I have a new trunk floor and main floor and am wondering which way the six floor drain hole covers face? Does the the raised area in the middle of the drain hole cover face up....or down...or depend on which hole you are covering? Or does it depend on which direction the lip around the edge of the drain hole faces....up or down? My original floors and plugs are long gone and I don't remember.All six drain holes in my original main and trunk floor were stamped with the lip around the edge facing down. On my repro floor, the drain holes in front of the front seats are stamped like the original, with the lip facing down. The two drain holes in front of the rear seat are stamped with the lip facing up, however.Each of the two drain holes in my new trunk floor have two screw holes at opposite corners. The other four holes do not.So based on the info given, which way should I place my drain hole covers?....................And also, is it correct that each trunk floor cover is screwed in as well and seam sealed.....or should those holes not be there.
Thanks to everyone for the info so far.I am clear now that the raised center of the plug faces up.I am a little fuzzy now about what the plugs should look like when looking at the bottom of a correctly finished car. Did the bottom of the car have it's final coat of paint (not including body color over spray) when the plugs were installed?If so, you would see the plug (in bare metal?) and the seam sealer.......both with no paint on them? Is this correct?
It appears galvanized to me.. and looks pretty correct.....
