After some research, TRAEA's Grandma decided that Reta (pronounced Reta as in "cheetah," not Reta as in Greta) had TB (Potts disease). I could be wrong. The family story was sketchy at best:
- She lived a long time on a "frame," and needed considerable care.
- Reta was one of five children in a still growing family, and her parents, Elsie JONES and George Hackett, simply could not give extra attention to one child.
- So she went to live with her widowed maternal grandmother, Carrie Maria FRENCH Jones.
- Because Grandma Jones could not understand Reta, her next older sister, Hazel HACKETT, also went to live with Grandma Jones
- Reta's case was unusual and written up in medical journals.
- "Pott's disease is frequently found in childhood, specially from the second to the fifth years. . . . . "
- Spinal deformities created by Pott's disease can be severe, and Pott's disease can lead to abscesses in other parts of the body or even paralysis.
- "Absolute recumbency" is necessary "in general . . . . . from twelve to eighteen months" as part of the treatment.
- The Whitman-Bradford frame ensured that. It was made of small-diameter galvanized gas-pipe or steel tubing, slightly longer and almost as wise as the child. It was covered with stretched canvas and two felt pads about an inch thick sewn along each side of the spine at the tuberculosis site.
- Whitman explains, "The child, wearing only an undershirt, stockings, and diaper, is placed upon the frame and is fixed there usually by a front piece or apron . . . . . As soon as the patient has become accustomed to the restraint one begins to over-extend the spine by bending the bars from time to time, with the aim of actually separating the diseased vertebral bodies . . . . . so that the body shall be finally bent backward to form the segment of a circle. The greatest convexity is at the seat of the disease. . . . . "
- Patients lay on this frame continuously, except when they were turned over to clean and powder their back.
- After patients no longer needed the frame, they were fitted with one of several forms of a steel brace or plaster jacket.
Although the Whitman-Bradford frame could explain "the frame" she recalled, what role was played by a tag that identified five-year-old Reta on a trip, probably to Boston? (She lived in Taunton, MA, which does not have a North Station as listed on the tag.)
Then there was the letter that she wrote about a year later to a family member, gleeful that she no longer needed the frame, but could "roll around the bed." Since she didn't mention running around, she was likely still under treatment.
And a picture of a slightly older Reta in what is obviously a brace, standing next to her sister Hazel. Grandmother Carrie Maria stands behind Hazel, and the others are unindentified.
Although the pieces seem to add up to Potts disease, there is one remaining question. Where in the world of literature was the writeup? Oodles of articles have been written about Potts disease, but so far this grandmother has yet to find any reference to the little girl from Taunton. Another hunt.
Reta was a great granddaughter of William and Maria L. WILBUR Hackett, Abraham and Evelina REID Thompson, Benjamin Paul and Anjenette PETTIS Jones, and Ephraim and Mary BETTERLY French.
Thanks for the letter Debbie!

What a Difference a Year Makes
My collection of Collier's magazines is far from complete, but from what I do have, I get the impression that Joe Bowler began painting crime story illustrations for Collier's in 1954 and continued to produce them through 1955. What a difference a year makes!
Compare yesterday's piece from 1954, The Desperate Hours to Monday's and today's pieces from 1955's Invasion of Privacy. While all the pieces are, of course, expertly designed and executed, the Invasion characters are clearly trapped in a genuinely threatening situation - punctuated here by a window-cracking bullet hole.
Somewhere between '54 and '55 Bowler seems to have found his "crime legs".

Sorry... I still don't read peril in this one. Wouldn't YOUR eyes would be a WHOLE lot wider and plenty more worried than this lady, who's just wondering why she's being shoved?ReplyDelete
No need to apologize, L. I would never quibble with you over a detail like how wide one's eyes should be at the moment after a shot is fired near your head. To each his own on that nuance, I say. Still, I think Bowler was heading in the right direction with these pieces from '55.ReplyDelete
Thanks for commenting! ;-)
Thanks for posting the Bowler art this week! He's not someone I was familiar with previously, and I'm now a big fan!
I'm so glad you've found a new illustrator to be inspired by here, Joe - thanks for commenting! L;-)ReplyDelete

Browns players like Josh Gordon and Greg Little have said in recent days that the team's new offense will push the ball down the field.
Now, the man who'll be running the offense has made it clear that the modus operandi will be to take the ball to opposing defenses.
"We're trying to create a mindset, from an offensive standpoint, that we're going to go attack," offensive coordinator Norv Turner recently told the team's website. "Coach Chudzinski stood up in front of our team and if he said it once, he said it 25 times in the last seven weeks, 'We are going to be an attacking team. We're going to attack on defense; we're going to attack on offense; we're going to attack in the kicking game.' I want to attack and I want to go, but we've got to get good."
Turner sees the youth of the team's roster as a benefit.
"We are real young, so that's a plus," Turner said. "When you take a bunch of young guys, you have a chance to improve and improve at a faster rate than when you take over a team with a lot of veteran guys."
Of course, their quarterback isn't young, but he's not experienced. And while there's plenty of speculation that the Browns would like to move on sooner than later from 2012 first-rounder Brandon Weeden, Turner gushed about the second-year player.
"I'm excited about Brandon," Turner said. "When I put on tape, I watch what a guy does real well and then, project it into what we're going to do. I see a lot of things that project awfully well. It's hard being a young quarterback in this league. It's hard being with an inexperienced guy when everyone around you is inexperienced, but I think everything Brandon went through last year will make him better."
If it doesn't, they'll find someone else. Or they'll go with one of the guys they already have.
Either way, there's reason for long-suffering Browns fans to have some hope. Though the Browns may still keep losing, they'll at least go down swinging.

With sunny skies, it was the perfect day to get your sour face on at the inaugural Boulder SourFest 2010 at the Avery Brewing Tap Room in Boulder, Colorado. I, along with 500 fellow sour beer enthusiasts, gathered on a great sunny day to sample some of the 65+ sour beers from around the USA inside Avery's intimate quarters of their barrel aging room and warehouse.
SourFest was at the right time and had all the right beers in my opinion. Attendees were given a "menu" of all available beers plus a commemorative snifter glass with 20 tasting tickets inside. Each sample ended up being around a 2oz pour. Some servers were a bit more generous with their pours than others but generally you were given enough tickets to sample a wide variety of beers created with various strains of Brettanomyces and/or Lactobaccilus yeast strains.
Bring on da funk!
It may take some a while to get adjusted to the funkiness, tartness and sometimes outrageous flavors that sour beers can impart. But once you get a taste for them it may be all that you may ever want again.
I'm one of those folks who are absolutely SOLD on sour beers. I just love em! And for a 4-5 hour period I was in sour heaven. For those of you who went - did you think this fest was impressive? I did!
The best thing about this event was seeing so many familiar faces (like Nicole, Jeff, PJ and others) and also having a chance to meet and greet some of the local brewers who were also in attendance. Adam Avery (Avery Brewing) and Peter Bouckaert (New Belgium Brewing) were among some of the more noticeable brewers mingling with the crowd.
So which breweries were there?
Oh my, there were many. Here is the short list of breweries represented: Elysian (WA), New Belgium (CO), Golden City (CO), Great Divide (CO), Jackie O's (OH), Left Hand (CO), The Lost Abbey (CA), Mountain Sun (CO), Nodding Head (PA), New Holland (MI), Odell Brewing (CO), Oskar Blues (CO), The Pumphouse (CO), Russian River (CA), Sam Adams (MA), Ska Brewing (CO), Twisted Pine (CO), Victory Brewing (PA), Yak & Yeti (CO), Dogfish Head (DE), Jolly Pumpkin (MI), Trinity Brewing (CO), Two Brothers Brewing (IL), Weyerbacher Brewing (PA), Allagash (ME), Avery (CO), Ballast Point (CA), Boulevard Brewing (MO), The Bruery (CA), Cambridge Brewing (MA), Cascade Brewing (OR), Deschutes Brewing (WA) and Dry Dock Brewing (CO).
Whew! That's a lot of brewers and they brought around 65 different beers. I only wish I had enough time to sample each and every one of them, but alas, only 20 tickets were handed out and that ended up being just enough for this festival. The majority of the beers were over 7% ABV and after 40oz of sampling you could definitely feel it!
My favorites
Where do I begin. I'll start off with my top picks.
Veritas 007 - The Lost Abbey. Oh my - one of the sourest beers I've ever tasted. Supposedly made from Isabelle Proximus and Cabernet franc grapes. Nearly pink in color but oh so good!
Duck Duck Gooze - The Lost Abbey. This one was a favorite from GABF last year and I had to have more. A blend of young and old barrel-aged beers. Highly sought after.
Old Growth - Trinity Brewing Co. This was another hit from the GABF and it was even better than I remember. A Flemish inspired wild brown ale that was tart and tasty. Seek this out.
Benevolence - Cambridge Brewing. This is what I'm calling my surprise hit of the festival. A dark barrel aged brew that was full of chocolate aroma. Sour chocolate. Very, very wonderful on the nose and the mouth. Loved this.
Gold Yeller - Cascade Brewing. Cascade is well known for their sour ales. They shined at the GABF in my record books for having some very tasty sours. This light colored wonder was aged in Pinot Noir barrels for a year. Simple wonderful.
Inaugural Boulder SourFest Blend - Avery Brewing. I had to try out the namesake brew of the fest. This brew was dark, acetic and blended from many different brews aged at different times. Very tasty!
Sour Black Butte Porter - Deschutes Brewing. I love their regular Black Butte Porter and just had to try a sour version of it. Dark, roasty and funky. A great sideline for this beer. Not as sour as others but still darn good.
I could go on with my raves. There were so many hits here and very few misses.
Let's do this again
I'd like to give Avery Brewing a big round of applause for hosting this 1st hope-to-be annual event. The 500+ in attendance were well behaved and the facilities were perfect for just such a fest. The only thing that could make this better would be to keep doing this fest every year and open it up to more people. I predict this festival will sell out EVERY year like it did this time around.
If you love sour ales then this fest should definitely be on your must-see list next year. Simply the best.
I hope to post lots of pictures and some video of the tasting in the days to come. I posted one video of a sampling I did of Benevolence (sour chocolate beer) and posted it to YouTube.

A Trio Set the Mark at $110,000: The Final Day of Barrett-Jackson
Adieu to the Lovable Adel
This Sunday recap concludes our survey of the trucks and SUVs of Scottsdale's Barrett-Jackson 2014 auction. An eclectic variety of vehicles crossed the auction block over the six days; picking a favorite would be nearly impossible. We've seen rare and we've seen common, flashy and subtle, restored and custom. Most of all, we've discovered that there's a world of fantastic Barrett-Jackson trucks beyond what we see on the television coverage.
Sunday saw a unique three-way tie for the most expensive truck to pass the auction block between a mean-looking '71 C-10, a crisp '56 F-100, and a goofy GMC amphibious vehicle, all of which sold for 110K. The PPG red '56 F-100 housed a twin turbocharged 5.4L 32 V Ford and was an overall beautifully done truck. The C-10, affectionately named "Adel" (Scandinavian for Nobility), was donated to the Austin Hatcher Foundation for Pediatric Cancer and proceeds from its sale benefited the children and families supported by AHFPC. Adel was dyno'd at 402rwhp and 398 lb/ft of torque due to the Chevrolet Performance LS3 E-ROD under the hood. It was built by Chimera Custom of N. Palm Harbor, Florida, with the help of many companies who were willing to donate their products. Adel was unveiled at the 2013 SEMA Show.
The goofy-looking amphibious vehicle was a 1944 GMC D.U.K.W. Restored in 2007, this now-private amphibious vehicle was designed through a partnership between Sparkman & Stephens and GMC during WW2 for transporting goods and troops and for amphibious attacks. It is a modified 2-ton "deuce" truck. Where does the DUKW term come from? It's not a military acronym. "D" indicated a vehicle designed in 1942; "U" indicated "utility"; "K" indicated driven front wheels; "W" indicated two powered rear axles. The next time you're visiting a touristy bay and take a "duck tour," you'll know that amphibious vehicles were designed for more than entertainment!
Enjoy this final selection of Barrett-Jackson beauties!

This is what I get for making fun of dentally-challenged Mark Cavendish - I need at least two root canals and am going to be off the grid for a bit, it seems.
For the confused amongst you, ProTour field-sprinter extraordinaire Mark "I am God and He is ME" (ex.news headline: "How Sprint King Plans to Rule the World") Cavendish has had a quiet season thus far because, according to him, he suffered massive complications from emergency dental work. Complications that wrecked his preparation and actually brought about negative changes in his body (ex. he lost lean muscle mass).
And I made fun of him and wondered if he hadn't gotten what he deserved (which was a kick in the pants from Life to knock him back into reality).
I.E.D.) - so hurt my mouth, and two teeth in particular. Quick back-story - my dentist died a couple of years ago, and while I'd kept up my spectacular home-based oral hygiene routine, some major life crises [about which you're now aware...] distracted me and kept me from forming a relationship with a new dentist with whom I felt comfortable. And if enough time goes by, Life makes you get out and find a new dentist. Sigh, how pathetic to be reduced to writing about one's brushing habits...screw that! To shift the spotlight somewhere else, let's quote Cav' from Paul Kimmage's best interview ever:
"My saliva glands were like grapes," he says. "My palate was massive. I couldn't shut my mouth [André Greipel could probably tell us a thing or two about that...]. I couldn't eat. It was pushing up my tongue and I couldn't breathe. I was crying like a baby. The team doctor and the dental nurse had to hold me in the chair as the dentist cut [my gum] and got the pus out. I almost passed out with the pain. I was on antibiotics for 10 days and they wiped me out. I had diarrhoea. I couldn't eat. I was lying in my bed for days and lost so much weight. I couldn't train for three weeks and lost so much muscle that it knocked me right back. If I could turn back time, I would stick with my teeth [laughs]. I am not normally vain but that was the one thing that got me."

Hitting the "reset" button, on a phone, clock or computer clears out the old information and gives the device a fresh start.
Hitting the "reset" button on life isn't quite as easy. But Nick Hall believes it can be done.
"Reset means to get the system working towards its intended or created purpose," said Hall, a young evangelist who is taking the Jesus-centered RESET Movement around the United States. "We're saying, 'God, we want to see a supernatural reset take place.'"
Since mid-September, the RESET Movement has spread from Seattle to New York City, as Hall and a group of passionate Christ followers crisscross the country, empowering a generation to "live fully for Jesus."
Collaborating with music artists such as Rend Collective, Lacey Sturm, and Propaganda, Hall plans to reach 2.5 million people in 200 cities by the fall of 2015. The first leg of the movement has already taken place in almost 20 cities, with half a dozen more events scheduled before Nov. 3.
"We're just bringing this single message, that God is offering a reset to this generation," Hall said. "He's offering a reset for this country right now. Whether people have been on the fence or whether they've been living the life they want to live.
"Even for churches, we've maybe made it about secondary issues. We've become defined by things we're against as opposed to things we're for. There's a reset button for that too."
Hall is intentionally crossing ministry and denominational lines, calling on Christ followers to come together to reach the next generation.
The Billy Graham Evangelistic Association (BGEA) is one of several ministries partnering with RESET, which Hall says resembles the early days of Youth for Christ—a ministry that was born in the 1940s, with Billy Graham as its first full-time evangelist.
"At the beginning of Billy Graham's ministry, he would go across the country and he was calling youth for Christ," Hall said. "We were like, 'What would it look like for a modern day movement to unfold today—a generation-defining moment in our day, with young people going 'all in' for God?' That birthed the concept and the dream and the vision for RESET."
As Hall travels from city to city, he preaches a Bible-based message that calls teens and twenty-somethings to fully dedicate their lives to Christ and build their faith through prayer, Bible study, loving others and sharing the Gospel.
RESET shares some common traits with the BGEA's My Hope with Billy Graham movement, which culminates Nov. 7-10 in the United States and Canada. The two ministries are supporting each other in their common goal to reach the lost with the hope of Christ.
"There's going be a lot of commonalities, because the DNA of our ministry has directly been shaped by the Billy Graham team," Hall said.
Like RESET, My Hope is a nationwide outreach that calls believers to share the Gospel with unreached friends and neighbors. But unlike RESET, My Hope is aimed at people of all ages and is centered around several powerful videos that will play on national TV as well as streaming online and DVD.
While the RESET Movement is just beginning—with a goal of holding the largest gathering of youth in the history of the nation in the fall of 2015—My Hope will culminate in just a few weeks, as Billy Graham delivers a new message to the nation. Christians are in the process of inviting friends and family over to their homes to watch the message, which is woven together with real-life stories of people who discovered Jesus and invited Him to change their lives.
Hall says both ministries share the same heart and the same goal.
"And we're asking God to do something bigger than any of us can do on our own," he said.
Since September, hundreds of young people have made decisions to accept Christ through the RESET Movement, and thousands more have been encouraged to get off the sidelines and go "all in" for Jesus.
"When you hit the reset button on your iPhone, it's supposed to correct the errors you've made and get it working the way Apple intended it to function," Hall said.
As he prepares to take the RESET message to even more cities, he's praying the next generation will experience the supernatural reset that only Jesus can offer—forgiven sins, a fresh start and a chance to live close to God, the way He always intended.

"In terms of scalability, efficiency and the price/performance ratio, we are really satisfied with our new ETERNUS DX8700 system. Together with the new FalconStor NSS virtualisation solution, we now have access to a storage environment that is easy to manage and readily available"
Felix Rönnebeck Head of Backup & Recovery Services, INFO Gesellschaft für Informationssysteme AG
A readily available storage environment is vital for an outsourcing service provider - but efficiency and scalability also play an important role. This is also true for Hamburg based INFO AG, a full service provider which offers medium-sized clients an extensive range of ITK services from one single source - from telephone, data transfer, housing and hosting to IT outsourcing and IT consulting. INFO AG belongs, in the most part, to QSC AG and runs data centres in Hamburg and Oberhausen. Amongst others, the Deutscher Ring Lebenversicherungs AG, the Deutsche Angestellten Krankenkasse (DAK) and Olympus Europa Holding GmbH form part of INFO AG's client base that exceeds more than 130. With over 700 employees, INFO AG generates an annual turnover of more than 100 million euros.
INFO AG runs a total of three data centres. Two are located in Hamburg and the third in Oberhausen. The old storage systems at these locations had become outdated and expandability had reached its limits. "We operate shared storage environments for around 40 customers," explains Felix Rönnebeck, Head of Backup & Recovery Services at INFO AG. "To do this, we need effective storage systems that are easy to manage. Eventually, that was no longer possible. However, as part of our update, we didn't just want a new hardware product but an actual solution."
The storage system and storage virtualisation was supplied by Concat, a system house that operates nationwide. The company based in Hamburg focuses entirely on storage, which perfectly met the needs of INFO AG. Due to positive results with previous projects, Concat recommended the ETERNUS DX8700 enterprise storage systems from Fujitsu. In terms of scalability, performance and energy efficiency, this model sets entirely new standards. In addition, the storage virtualisation software FalconStor NSS dramatically reduces the administrative burden. "This solution perfectly meets our requirements," states Felix Rönnebeck, "and it even comes with an attractive price tag."

Weekly Wire: the Global Forum
These are some of the views and reports relevant to our readers that caught our attention this week.
The Guardian
How citizens can make development happen
"The future of development lies in the hands of millions of citizens. It's a bold statement by Rakesh Rajani, founder of Twaweza, who was in London for the debate on the future of aid organised by the Overseas Development Institute. Only two years old, Twaweza, which means "we can make it happen" in Swahili, is attempting to do just that across three east African countries, Tanzania, Kenya and Uganda.
Rajani's strategy is to spread information, believing that crucial to the process of development is access to ideas. Twaweza focuses on what it believes are the five main routes for people to hear new ideas in the region: religion; mobile phones; mass media, in particular radio; fast-moving consumer goods; and teachers. Twaweza builds partnerships in all these areas to spread ideas, draw in new voices and open up conversations. It works rather like a venture fund, initiating ideas and getting new organisations off the ground. Rajani cites Amartya Sen's comment that poverty is not about a lack of money, but about a lack of options. His aim is to find new ways to intervene in people's lives to widen their options."

NASHVILLE, TN, April 23, 2009 — With shared backgrounds…all drawing inspiration from the same place — growing up singing harmony with their families — the four members of GRAMMY®-nominated Little Big Town started along a path to vocal fame at an early age.
Karen Fairchild and Kimberly Schlapman began singing together while students at Samford University in Birmingham, Alabama. Both moved to Nashville in the mid-1990s, and invited old Alabama friend Jimi Westbrook to join them in 1998. Phillip Sweet completed the band later that year. Now ten years later – the band reminisces of another connection – a lifetime with Shure microphones.
"We've all used SM58®s as long as we can remember," says Sweet. "It's like the go-to microphone."
"Yeah, they are just reliable," Westbrook says without hesitation, picking up the banner, too. "You know what you're getting, and it sounds great. As far back as when I was a kid singing in church I sang on 58s — SM57s, too. Karen cut a vocal using a 57 on…"
"It was on "Looking for a Reason," Fairchild says, finishing Westbrook's sentence. "That was a song on The Road to Here, our second album. We had all these crazy mics in there, and then we're like 'let's grab a 57 and see what happens.' We ended up loving it!"
However you want to describe them, Little Big Town draws fans and critics alike to their mesmerizing four-part harmonies. Their sophomore CD, critically-acclaimed, A Place to Land, was recently re-released on Capitol Nashville with four new tracks, including the GRAMMY-nominated collaboration with Sugarland and Jake Owen, "Life in a Northern Town." They released the Platinum-selling record, The Road to Here, in 2005, which included Gold Digital Certified, "Boondocks."
In 2006, the foursome landed two GRAMMY nominations, including Best Country Album for The Road to Here and Best Country Performance by a Duo or Group for "Boondocks." Billboard Magazine also named them Independent Artist of the Year and named The Road to Here Independent Album of the Year. In 2007, they were awarded Academy of Country Music's Top New Vocal Group and, in 2008 were nominated for CMA Vocal Group of the Year.
Fans of Little Big Town loving the idea of catching the band's act live will be happy to note that April 23 will mark the beginning of a touring schedule starting at Campbell University in Buies Creek, NC. Subsequent dates will follow nationwide culminating in a stop on October 9 at Mo's Place in Katy, TX.

|Docket No.: RM10-23-000
Commissioner Moeller's statement on transmission planning and cost allocation notice of proposed rulemaking
"As I have repeatedly stressed in my years on this Commission, promoting investment in our nation's transmission infrastructure has been my top policy priority. Robust electric transmission infrastructure is the ultimate "enabling" energy technology, as it can provide a more efficient electric system, enhanced reliability, increased access to less expensive and often cleaner resources, and the ability to harness location-constrained renewable resources. Conversely, the lack of adequate transmission investments often disproportionately raises consumer rates due to congestion, threatens the reliability of the nation's bulk power system, and increases reliance on older and dirtier generating resources.
While I am not certain that every policy in this proposed rule will ultimately be adopted, I am certain that building needed transmission lines is often the lowest-cost way to improve the delivery of electricity service. Although the Commission could have addressed regional cost allocation several years ago when it first became apparent that the organized markets were not reaching consensus on the issue, that wait is over and the Commission is now considering specific proposals to resolve cost allocation.
Given that the U.S. Congress is examining cost allocation at this time, our issuance of this proposed rule comes at a potentially sensitive time. While Congress is now considering several measures that deal directly with issues addressed in this proposed rule, I expect that this Commission will defer to the legislative branch as we move forward in our deliberations. This proposed rule, and the comments to follow, will provide the Congress with the framework of the issues that we consider relevant and the opportunity for Congress to provide further guidance to us. Thus, our action today is not intended to interfere with that process, but rather to add helpful information and evidence that will be useful in the formation of federal legislation.
Also controversial will be the question of whether incumbent utilities should retain rights of first refusal that were created under the Commission's jurisdiction. Alas, the question of whether transmission developers can compete on par with an incumbent transmission-owning utility is no longer theoretical. In recent cases, the Commission has been confronted with particular situations where competitors could be discouraged (or altogether blocked) from building a transmission project if the incumbent utility retains the right of first refusal. While initial rulings have been rendered in these cases, the generic issue is ready for further discussion in this rulemaking.
Resolving controversial issues is rarely easy and I expect today's proposed rule to be both lauded and criticized. The changes proposed here are significant, but the future success of the organized markets and the nation's electric transmission system depend on resolving these long-debated and controversial issues.
Staff's efforts here have resulted in a proposal that will lead to a much needed conversation on how to best encourage needed capital investment. This will not be an easy matter to address when it comes before the Commission for a vote on the final rule, and for that reason this Commission should carefully consider the comments that we will receive. I will do my part to ensure that this Commission does not lose sight of the ultimate goal: a final rule that results in needed capital investment.
[1] NSTAR Elec. Co., 125 FERC ¶ 61,313 (2008) (Moeller, Comm'r, dissenting in part) (". the Commission should do what it can to encourage capital investment in needed transmission infrastructure projects."); Commonwealth Edison Co. and Commonwealth Edison Co. of Indiana, 125 FERC ¶ 61,250 (2008) (Moeller, Comm'r, dissenting) (". now is not the time for this Commission to discourage investment in needed transmission infrastructure."); New York Indep. Sys. Operator, Inc., 129 FERC ¶ 61,045 (2009) (Moeller, Comm'r, dissenting) ("The main issue here is whether needed transmission is being built . I have encouraged investment in transmission infrastructure ."); Southern California Edison Co., 129 FERC ¶ 61,013 (2009) (Moeller, Comm'r, dissenting in part) ("The transmission that is needed in this nation will not be built unless the companies that build it can attract adequate investment dollars.")

Thanks to efforts by environmentalists and opponents of the natural gas industry, the process of fracking has come under the limelight recently – and the federal government is considering new, tougher regulations for the hydraulic fracturing industry. Although at one point some environmental groups saw natural gas as a less environmentally damaging alternative to coal, they are now rethinking their stance – and the Sierra Club has revealed they turned down a $30 million gift from natural gas company Chesapeake Energy because of their concerns about the process. That's a huge hunk of cash for a non-profit environmental group to turn down on principle, and thanks to their honesty they're now able to fight the good fight against this energy source, which we now know has a dirtier life-cycle than coal.
"Groups like the Sierra Club have been consumed until relatively recently with an 'anything but coal' agenda," Anthony Ingraffea, a Cornell University engineering professor and fracking opponent quoted in a This American Life episode about the dangers of fracking. In an interview yesterday, Sierra Club Executive Director Michael Brune said "When shale gas came around, the groups found themselves wittingly or unwittingly painting themselves into a corner". When he considered new information about how fracking for natural gas can lead to unsafe drinking water and has more emissions than originally thought, Brune took a stand and announced that he believed his organization should no longer support the fuel source.
"Five years ago most environmental groups thought of gas as a clean but flawed alternative" Brune told attendees at a Bloomberg Government breakfast yesterday. He noted that the more they found out about it, "the more we realized that there were more problems with gas than we thought." During that early period, Chesapeake, its subsidiaries, and other natural gas companies supported organizations like the Sierra Club and the American Lung Association in their fight against the coal industry. Now that the Sierra Club has taken a step back, others are more likely to do the same.
Yesterday Brune expressed his concern about lax legislation in the fracking industry, stating: "if loopholes aren't closed, we shouldn't feel confident that fracking is being done in a safe manner." Meanwhile, the state of Ohio just announced new rules for the natural gas industry that will help avert small earthquakes being caused by their drilling practices.

This week may bring the largest snowstorm of the winter to Addison County, but it will pale in comparison to the storms of last year - and to the forecasts many made last fall of a snowy winter. As winter nears its end, it is a good time to look back at these winter forecasts and see how they fared against actual conditions.
The verdict? Just about all of the long-range forecasts I mentioned last fall, as well as my own guesses, were well off the mark! Most of the weather outlooks from last fall featured a winter with near-average temperatures and heavy snowfall. Instead we've experienced a very mild winter with changeable but warmer than average temperatures, and very little snow. The lack of snow was not only due to warm weather but also due to much drier conditions than we experienced last spring and summer.
(photo: instead of a snowy winter, we have experienced a mild and nearly snowless winter thus far. Sugaring season has started early, and there is little or no snow on the ground in the Champlain Valley.)
The majority of the United States has experienced a mild winter, with the exception of Alaska, which has been even snowier and colder than usual. Europe also experienced a very severe cold snap earlier this month.
The likely cause for Vermont's mind conditions? The positive Arctic Oscillation jet stream pattern that I posted about in January has continued for much of the winter. In contrast, last year's winter featured a negative Arctic Oscillation pattern. The negative pattern often correlates with heavy snow in Vermont, while the positive pattern is associated with mild winters. There are some signs that early spring may be wetter than the winter has been, but as temperatures rise we may be left with rain rather than snow.
Were there any signs of a mild winter to come that were evident last fall? I did notice that the woolly bear caterpillars 'seemed redder than usual', which some believe foretells a mild winter. There isn't much scientific credibility to this story, but I'll be looking out for these caterpillars next fall anyway. Meanwhile, perhaps some Vermonters who have been through many more winters than I may have had the feeling that a mild winter was on the way. During my time in California I noticed that changes in acorn production seemed to be linked to the next winter's rainfall, but I havent yet noticed anything similar in Vermont. Does anyone watch animals or plants as a possible indicator of future weather? Or, do you just prepare for the worst and hope for the best?
Charlie Hohn is a recent graduate of the UVM Field Naturalist graduate program. He has been closely watching the weather ever since he was a child in southern California. Charlie will be posting occasional blog posts here about Addison County weather. He also maintains a blog about water at slowwatermovement.blogspot.com.

Polygon Solutions Inc. designs, manufactures and distributes precision rotary (wobble) broaching tools and toolholders. The company's products are used primarily in lathes, mills, CNC
machines and screw machines.
The manufacturer offers a complete line of standard hexagon, double hex, square and hexalobular (six-lobe) rotary broaching tools. Specialty products include custom spline, involute, serration, spur gear and micro-shaped rotary broaches, with additional shapes available upon request.
Polygon Solutions was founded 2 years ago in Fort Myers, Fla., with a plan to manufacture the industry's most advanced, most user-friendly rotary broaching tools.
"The concept of using a cutting tool to make a square or hexagon-shaped hole was not new," says Peter Bagwell, the company's product engineer. "A similar tool was first patented in 1914. But the concept has evolved considerably over the last century.
"Rotary broaching tools were first used on screw machines in the 1950s," Mr. Bagwell continues. "And in the 1970s, an adjustment-free model was introduced, taking a lot of the complexity out of the process."
Polygon Solutions' innovative tools and toolholders are the next generation in the rotary broaching category. The company's tools allow customers to cut a range of holes and shapes into its own products. The manufacturer currently serves the medical, aerospace, automotive, fastener and plumbing industries.
"In the medical field, the technology for bone screws and orthopedic devices is expanding rapidly," Mr. Bagwell says. "These small implants have unique parts and fasteners that are made by rotary broaching."
In the automotive market, Polygon Solutions sells to auto manufacturers, as well as aftermarket and customizing shops. "Some of our customers make motorcycle parts, such as small shifter gears that require a unique-shaped hole,"
Mr. Bagwell explains.
"The smaller shops usually don't have the equipment to make those precision holes, so they come to us for the rotary broaching tools. In such cases, we do a bit of reverse engineering as part of our service.
"These are not very big tools," he adds. "Most of the sizes we offer are under an inch in diameter. Oftentimes, we have to draw the tool and get it approved before we proceed. There's quite a lot of work involved before we even begin the manufacturing."
Last month, Polygon Solutions received a Manufacturing Leadership 100 Award in the Innovative Enterprise category. The ML100 Awards honor companies and individuals that are shaping the future of global manufacturing.
Polygon Solutions is one of the PMPA's newest members. "PMPA is great for finding and sharing new ideas," Mr. Bagwell says. "There are ideas out there we never thought of. When you see another member dealing with a new idea, it makes you think ahead."
Mr. Bagwell is a big fan of the PMPA's Statistics and Financial Management Report. "I really enjoy that report, especially because we're a small company," he says. "The report provides a large industry overview that we probably couldn't obtain on our own.
"I also use the online resources that PMPA offers," Mr. Bagwell continues. "Part of the PMPA website includes a technical section. We've used that in the past. The fact that it's right there on the association's website is handy. When I'm online, I also read the PMPA Speaking of Precision blog by Miles Free.
"I use the Listserves, too," Mr. Bagwell adds. "I participate in both the Technical and the Quality Listserves. So far, I've been getting a lot more out of them than I've been able to put in. There's a wealth of knowledge to draw from. I have never seen such a sharing of information anywhere else in the industry."

"Can I stay here?"
Her mother looked at her. "Alone?"
"Please? You just said it won't take long, and I'd like to have another look around."
"I don't know, Steph . . ."
"Please? I've stayed on my own before. I won't break anything, I swear."
Her mother laughed. "Okay, fine. I shouldn't be any more than an hour, all right? An hour and a half at the most." Her mother gave her a quick kiss on the cheek. "Call me if you need anything."
She ran back outside and jumped into the cab, next to the dog, who proceeded to slobber all over her face. Stephanie watched their car being towed off into the distance, and then it vanished from sight.
She did a little more exploring, now that she was on her own. She climbed the stairs and went straight to Gordon's study.
His publisher, Seamus T. Steepe of Arc Light Books, had phoned them earlier that day, passing on his condolences and inquiring about the state of Gordon's last book. Her mother had told him that they'd find out if Gordon had completed it, and if he had, they'd send it on. Mr. Steepe was very keen to get the book on the shelves, certain that it would crash onto the bestseller list and stay there for a long time. "Dead writers sell," he had said, like he approved of Gordon's clever marketing ploy.
Stephanie opened a desk drawer and found the manuscript in a neat stack. She pulled it out carefully and laid it on the desktop, careful not to smudge the paper. The first page held the title, nothing more, in bold lettering:
And the Darkness Rained upon Them
Red Dressdown Flight Bag Retro Periodic Earl Element The manuscript was thick and heavy, like all of Gordon's books. She'd read most of them and, the odd splash of pretension aside, had quite enjoyed his work. His stories tended to be about people who could do astonishing and wonderful things, and the strange and terrible events that invariably led up to their bizarre and horrible deaths. She noticed the way he would set up a strong and noble hero and, over the course of the book, systematically subject his hero to brutal punishment in a bid to strip away all his arrogance and certainty, so that by the end he was humbled and had learned a great lesson. And then Gordon killed him off, usually in the most undignified way possible. Stephanie could almost hear Gordon laughing with mischievous glee as she read.
She lifted the title page and carefully laid it facedown on the desk beside the manuscript. She started reading. She didn't mean to spend long at it, but soon she was devouring every word, oblivious to the creaking old house and the rain outside.
Her mobile phone rang, making her jump. She had been reading for two hours. She thumbed the answer button and held it to her ear.
"Hi, sweetie," came her mother's voice. "Everything okay?"
"Yes," she answered. "Just reading."
"You're not reading one of Gordon's books, are you? Steph, he writes about horrible monsters and scary stuff and bad people doing worse things. It'll give you nightmares."
"No, Mum, I'm . . . I'm reading the dictionary."
Even the brief silence from the other end of the phone was skeptical. "The dictionary?" her mother said. "Really?"
"Yeah," Stephanie said. "Did you know that popple is a word?"
"You are stranger than your father, you know that?"
"I suspected. . . . So is the car fixed yet?"
"No, and that's why I'm calling. They can't get it going, and the road up to you is flooded. I'm going to get a taxi up as far as it'll go, and then I'll see if I can find some way around on foot. It's going to be another two hours, at least."
Stephanie sensed an opportunity. Ever since she was a child, she had much preferred her own company to the company of others, and it occurred to her that she had never spent a whole night without her parents nearby. A small taste of freedom, and it almost tingled on her tongue.
"Mum, it's fine, you don't have to. I'm okay here."
"There's no way I'm leaving you in a strange house by yourself."
"It's not a strange house; it's Gordon's, and it's fine. There's no point in you trying to get here tonight; it's lashing rain."
"Sweetie, it won't take me long."
"It'll take you ages. Where's it flooded?"
Her mother paused. "At the bridge."
"The bridge? And you want to walk from the bridge to here?"
"If I speed walk--"
"Mum, don't be silly. Get Dad to pick you up."
"Sweetheart, are you sure?"
"I like it here, really. Okay?"
"Well, okay," her mother said reluctantly. "I'll be over first thing in the morning to pick you up, all right? And I saw some food in the cupboards, so if you're hungry, you can make yourself something."
"Okay. I'll see you tomorrow, then."
"Call us if you need anything, or if you just want some company."
"I will. Night, Mum."
"I love you."
"I know."
Stephanie hung up and grinned. She slipped the phone back into her jacket and put her feet up on the desk, relaxing in the chair, and went back to reading.
When she looked up again, she was surprised to find that it was almost midnight and the rain had stopped. If she were home right now, she'd be in bed. She blinked, her eyes sore, and stood up from the desk and went downstairs to the kitchen. For all his wealth and success and extravagant tastes, Stephanie was thankful that when it came to food, Gordon was a pretty standard guy. The bread was stale and the fruit was a bit too ripe, but there were biscuits and there was cereal, and the milk in the fridge was still good for one more day. She made herself a snack and wandered into the living room, where she flicked on the TV. She sat on the couch and was just getting comfy when the house phone rang.
She looked at it, resting there on the table at her elbow. Who would be calling? Anyone who knew Gordon had died wouldn't be calling, because they'd know he had died, and she didn't really want to be the one to tell anyone who didn't know. It could be her parents--but then why didn't they just call her mobile?
Figuring that as the new owner of the house it was her responsibility to answer her own phone, Stephanie picked it up. "Hello?"
"Hello?" Stephanie repeated.
"Who is this?" came a man's voice.
"I'm sorry," Stephanie said, "who are you looking for?"
"Who is this?" responded the voice, more irritably this time.
"If you're looking for Gordon Edgley," Stephanie said, "I'm afraid that he's--"
"I know Edgley's dead," snapped the man. "Who are you? Your name?"
Stephanie hesitated. "Why do you want to know?" she asked.
"What are you doing in that house? Why are you in his house?"
"If you want to call back tomorrow--"
"I don't want to, all right? Listen to me, girlie: If you mess up my master's plans, he will be very displeased, and he is not a man you want to displease--you got that? Now tell me who you are!"
Stephanie realized her hands were shaking. She forced herself to calm down, and quickly found anger replacing her nervousness. "My name is none of your business," she said. "If you want to talk to someone, call back tomorrow at a reasonable hour."
Flight Dressdown Periodic Bag Red Earl Retro Element "You don't talk to me like that," the man hissed.Retro Logo Uscss Messenger Nostromo Bag Royal Alien xqzE4d4
"Good night," Stephanie said firmly.
"You do not talk to me like--"
But Stephanie was already putting the phone down. Suddenly the idea of spending the whole night here wasn't as appealing as it had first seemed. She considered calling her parents, then scolded herself for being so childish. No need to worry them, she thought; no need to worry them about something so--
Someone pounded on the front door.
"Open up!" came the man's voice between the pounding. Stephanie got to her feet, staring through to the hall beyond the living room. She could see a dark shape behind the frosted glass around the front door. "Open the damn door!"
Stephanie backed up to the fireplace, her heart pounding in her chest. He knew she was in here--there was no use pretending that she wasn't--but maybe if she stayed really quiet, he'd give up and go away. She heard him cursing, and the pounding grew so heavy that the front door rattled under the blows.
"Leave me alone!" Stephanie shouted.
"Open the door!"
"No!" she shouted back. She liked shouting; it disguised her fear. "I'm calling the police! I'm calling the police right now!"
The pounding stopped immediately, and she saw the shape move away from the door. Was that it? Had she scared him away? She thought of the back door--was it locked? Of course it was locked--it had to be locked. But she wasn't sure, she wasn't certain. She grabbed a poker from the fireplace and was reaching for the phone when she heard a knock on the window beside her.
She cried out and jumped back. The curtains were open, and outside the window was pitch-black. She couldn't see a thing.
"Are you alone in there?" came the voice. It was teasing now, playing with her.
"Go away," she said loudly, holding up the poker so that he could see it. She heard the man laugh.
"What are you going to do with that?" he asked from outside.
"I'll break your head open with it!" Stephanie screamed at him, fear and fury bubbling inside her. She heard him laugh again.
"I just want to come in," he said. "Open the door for me, girlie. Let me come in."
"The police are on their way," she said.
"You're a liar."
Flight Bag Element Earl Periodic Retro Red Dressdown Still she could see nothing beyond the glass, and he could see everything. She snatched the phone from its cradle.
"Don't do that," came the voice.
"I'm calling the police."
"The road's closed, girlie. You call them, I'll break down that door and kill you hours before they get here."
Fear became terror and Stephanie froze. She was going to cry. She could feel the tears welling up inside her. She hadn't cried in years. "What do you want?" she said to the darkness. "Why do you want to come in?"
"It's got nothing to do with me, girlie. I've just been sent to pick something up. Let me in; I'll look around, get what I came here for, and leave. I won't harm a pretty little hair on your pretty little head, I promise. Now you just open that door right this second."
Stephanie gripped the poker in both hands and shook her head. She was crying now, tears rolling down her cheeks. "No," she said.
She screamed as a fist smashed through the window, showering the carpet with glass. She stumbled back as the man started climbing in, glaring at her with blazing eyes, unmindful of the glass that cut into him. The moment his foot touched the floor inside the house, Stephanie bolted out of the room and over to the front door, fumbling at the lock.
Earl Flight Element Retro Dressdown Bag Red Periodic Strong hands grabbed her from behind. She screamed again as she was lifted off her feet and carried back. She kicked out, slamming a heel into his shin. The man grunted and let go. Stephanie twisted, trying to swing the poker into his face, but he caught it and pulled it from her grasp. One hand went to her throat, and Stephanie gagged, unable to breathe as the man forced her back into the living room.Tote Bag Snow Shopper Princess Lime Statement FqnnT1wxE
He pushed her into an armchair and leaned in on her. No matter how hard she tried, she could not break his grip.
"Now then," the man said, his mouth contorting into a sneer, "why don't you just give me the key, little girlie?"
Red Earl Retro Bag Element Periodic Flight Dressdown And that's when the front door was flung off its hinges and Skulduggery Pleasant burst into the house.
The man cursed and released Stephanie and swung the poker, but Skulduggery moved straight to him and hit him so hard, Stephanie thought the man's head might come off. He hit the ground and tumbled backward, but rolled to his feet as Skulduggery moved in again.
The man launched himself forward. The two men collided and went backward over the couch, and Skulduggery lost his hat. Stephanie saw a flash of white above the scarf.
They got to their feet, grappling, and the man swung a punch that knocked Skulduggery's sunglasses to the other side of the room. Skulduggery responded by moving in low, grabbing the man around the waist, and twisting his hip into him. The man was flipped to the floor, hard.
He cursed a little more while he was down there, then remembered Stephanie and made for her. Stephanie leaped out of the chair, but before he reached her, Skulduggery was there, kicking the man's legs out from under him. The man hit a small coffee table with his chin and howled in pain.
"You think you can stop meLeather Women's Tuscany Bag Shoulder Size Red One d7wvaxw?" he screamed as he tried to stand. His knees seemed shaky. "Do you know who I am?"
"Haven't the foggiest," Skulduggery said.
The man spat blood and grinned defiantly. "Well, I know about you," he said. "My master told me all about youRoncato 413482 Suitcase Medium Luggage Petrolio 4ruote rxrw1Oq8B, Detective, and you're going to have to do a lot more than that to stop me."
Skulduggery shrugged, and Stephanie watched in amazement as a ball of fire flared up in his hand. He hurled it, and the man was suddenly covered in flame. But instead of screaming, the man tilted his head back and roared with laughter. The fire might have engulfed him, but it wasn't burning him.
"More!" He laughed. "Give me more!"
"If you insist."
Flight Earl Dressdown Periodic Retro Red Bag Element And then Skulduggery took an old-fashioned revolver from his jacket and fired, the gun bucking slightly with the recoil. The bullet hit the man in the shoulder and he screamed, then tried to run and tripped. He scrambled for the doorway, ducking and dodging lest he get shot again, the flames obstructing his vision so much that he hit a wall on his way out.
And then he was gone.
Stephanie stared at the door, trying to make sense of the impossible.
"Well," Skulduggery said from behind her, "that's something you don't see every day."
She turned. When his hat had come off, his hair had come off too. In the confusion, all she had seen was a chalk-white scalp, so she turned expecting to see a bald albino, maybe. But no. With his sunglasses gone and his scarf hanging down, there was no denying the fact that he had no flesh, he had no skin, he had no eyes, and he had no face.
All he had was a skull for a head.

during one election day:
"It is election, voting day on Monday.
There are great crowds
surging through the streets,
there is a searchlight
wandering overhead through the darkness.
There are suffragettes
in thousands and tens of thousands,
the place is strident with voices and placards,
rustling with leaflets and pamphlets.
I was in the mad grip of the crowd
before the suffragettes.
If you had felt the surge,
the vicious rush
of one solid mass of men
towards the car
where two women were alone!
'If men cannot control themselves',
said one of them,
'it is time women had some power to control them'"
The Suffragettes
Women who wanted the vote
had had enough by 1912.
Years of peaceful campaigning
had no effect.
They felt that it was time to be militant.
They called themselves 'suffragettes'
as 'suffrage' means the right to vote.
Local suffragettes caused outrage
by damaging Norwood Bowling Green.

Cool innovation in Thailand: good for business, good for the climate
With the recent climate agreement in Paris, many countries are looking at improved energy efficiency as a way to reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions to contribute to the agreed climate goal of keeping global warming below two degrees Celsius.
Innovative air-conditioning (A/C) technology, just launched by a Thai A/C manufacturer in cooperation with the Government of Thailand and the Federation of Thai Industries, will not only save consumers and the country energy, it will eliminate emissions of ozone depleting, high global warming refrigerants with little to no additional costs. At scale, this technology can play an important role in global climate mitigation efforts.

Very pleasant stay Our stay was a very short one because we were going to Thekkady and had stopped en-route to freshen up. The room & bathroom had all the bacis amenities and was so clean. The bed and bath linen was aslo very clean and fresh. Mrs. & Mr. Thomas are excellent hosts. It is a good option if you have to stay at Cochin for a few days. But if it is just a night halt and then onwards to other locations in Kerala.... then finding a place near the airport is a better option.

Eddie Low
|Grand Theft Auto IV
|Full name:
|Eddie Low
|Also known as:
|Eddie Low, Filth Slayer
|Date of birth:
|Place of birth:
|San Fierro
|Date of death:
|2008 (Age 31, optional)
|Dukes, Liberty City
Eddie Low is a pedophile, necrophiliac and bisexual serial killer in Liberty City, and a random character in Grand Theft Auto IV.
[[[]]hide]*1 Description
[3]Added by Barrymk200Serial killer profile[4]EditEdit
Eddie Low has most, if not all stereotypes of a serial killer - white male in his thirties, abandoned by father, strict mother and abused by a family member, as well as the Macdonald triad of firesetting, animal cruelty and bedwetting past twelve. He is categorized as a disorganized-asocial killer, who act on impulse and leave bodies out in the open. His motives, sorted into four categories for all serial killers, are mostly hedonistic but with elements of all four.
Eddie Low is partially based on David "Son of Sam" Berkowitz, New York's most infamous serial killer during 1976-77, including Eddie's online manifestos based on the Son of Sam letter, and the investigators' plans to turn their search for him into a book or movie. Son of Sam insists that his neighbor's dog telepathically communicated to him that he should kill, while Eddie has a neglected pet cat at his home that he is constantly annoyed by, though he shows self-control for once and says he would "never hurt Boo Boo Wilkins". Son of Sam targeted couples that showed public displays of affection and while Eddie targets lone joggers, this peaks his interests as shown by his comments on the Whattheydonotwantyoutoknow.com website.
Eddie was born in San Fierro in 1977. He writes online that his father would force him to wear girl's clothes and grow his hair out (even sending him to school dressed that way), as well as forcing Eddie to perform sexual acts on him. Eddie later killed him out of spite. Also at school, he would touch other kids inappropriately and otherwise not play with other children at all. In elementary school, he would dig a hole and sit in it, and one of his first kills was a red-headed kid who urinated in the hole. He once had a little brother (who he apparently placed in the oven), but killed him and hid his body in a pond.
He loved his mother very much, perhaps even in a romantic or sexual way (extreme Oedipus complex), even though she forbid him to watch television and punished him for masturbation. One day he accidentally killed her by putting her head under the sand when he was younger. This was an honest mistake on Eddie's part and he says that he wishes he "could have married my mommy". He has since then saved all her clothes (including underwear) for cross-dressing purposes and kept her severed breasts in a shoebox under his bed. He mentions a grandpa that he touched inappropriately, and his grandma punishing him, possibly having been raised by them since then.
He also talks about going to many mental institutions throughout his childhood. Coinciding with this, he was arrested at the ages of nine (for torturing an animal) and fourteen (for indecent exposure). By high school he fully developed into a serial killer, torturing and killing classmates much more frequently. At age 18, he was arrested again for public masturbation.
Adult Life[6]EditEdit
Although Eddie has a house in Dukes (where he leaves vomit and feces uncleaned all over the house, and once locked a woman in the celler), he kills people all over Liberty City. It is likely an inherited childhood home, as he remembers playing in an apple tree in the backyard as a boy.
Eddie is bisexual (despite being very socially awkward, he gets invited into Hercules and invites Niko to go with him) and has almost every sexual fetish under the sun, including but not limited to torture and mutilation, breast-feeding, cross-dressing, bestiality and public masturbation. He currently has strange views on masturbation in particular; sometimes he wonders if animals do it and if it's "God's real gift to us", other times saying people are weak and indulgent for doing it and should be decapitated. He describes his number of sexual partners as "Tens or hundreds - depends if dead people count".
He is notorious for killing his victims late at night, such as joggers whom he sees as selfish and vain. During a conversation he states that he loved a woman but later found out she was a "whore". This is likely a woman he refers to on both his blogs - while buying supplies at a hardware store, a female clerk tells him "have a nice day" as many clerks are supposed to. Eddie, without adequate social understanding, believes she has a crush on him, so he follows her home and asks to "nurse" her (suck on her breasts) and when she resists, Eddie kills her in anger.
Throughout the game, Weazel News and various Internet websites report on a mysterious, nameless serial killer who has been attacking, touching, murdering, raping the bodies, and then mutilating people in Liberty City, leaving the police without clues, as Niko meets him doing "work" in Alderney. Once Niko kills Eddie Low, the police find his body and, subsequently, evidence at his home that reveals him to be the killer. Eddie Low has two blog pages on MyRoom (a parody of MySpace) and Blogsnobs. They are both titled 'Eddie Low Filth Slayer'. Not surprisingly, in his MyRoom page, it says that he has zero friends. He also leaves a few comments on websites. His Blogsnobs site is Eddielowfilthslayer.blogsnobs.org. He was being hunted by detective Jon Atkinson who wants to make a film and a book detailing his hunt for the killer. Eddie knows his name and mocks his capabilities as well as his clear aspiration for fame.
Encounters with Niko Bellic in 2008[7]EditEdit
Niko Bellic meets him across the street from the Auto Eroticar dealership in northern Alderney City. He's only there late at night, from 10 (22:00) pm to 4 (4:00) am, right when Alderney is unlocked (After "Three Leaf Clover"). Eddie introduces himself to Niko and greets him with some disturbing comments. Eddie then asks for a ride to the docks so he can 'drop off his friend' (presumed to be the head(s) of one or more of his victims, concealed in a gym bag). Eddie begins to talk about his creepy life (above) in strange ways. His next port of call is Westminster, Algonquin, (One of his favorite places to kill) as he has heard enough screams of the people of Alderney, and wants to hear the screams of Algonquin people.
He appears for a second time in a dark alleyway in western Berchem (at the same time again) and attempts to make small talk. Niko is taken aback by Low's strange and disturbing comments, including asking Niko if he enjoys being spanked. He tells Eddie to 'fuck off,' and that his behavior is not cool. An enraged Eddie launches into a tirade about how exactly he even tortured some children. For example, he says that he once kidnapped a mother's quarterback and then conducted anal rape and "strangled him into knots", and pulled out the intestines of another mother's daughter. This prompts Niko to respond with, "You need to get laid or something!" Eddie says that he already did; "A little jogger down by the water! But you know what handsome, I got a hunger tonight that can't be sated, come here!" Low then takes out a knife and starts to attack Niko, after which he can either be killed or disarmed.
LCPD Database information[8]EditEdit
[9]One of Eddie Low's victims.Added by SpaceeinsteinSurname: Low
First Name: Eddie
Age: 31
Place of Birth: San Fierro
Affiliations: N/A
Criminal Record:
- 1985 - Animal Cruelty
- 1990 - Exposure Of A Person
- 1995 - Public Lewdness
- Possible sex offender.
- Arrested several times for exposing himself to men in parks and masturbating in public places.
Mission Appearances[10]EditEdit
- Two Random Encounters (Can be killed in the second encounter)
- It is possible that he is named for Edward Low, an eighteenth century pirate notable for his methods of torturing and murdering on a whim.
- Jon Atkinson said Eddie lived in Dukes, although his encounters are both in Alderney.
- It becomes something of a running gag that the LCPD have not yet given him a nickname, and is repeatedly stated within articles on The Liberty Tree. The mayor of Liberty City even commented the nickname the LCPD gave to the killer, Eddie Low, is pretty stupid and heads will roll for this (he later corrects himself, saying simply 'people will suffer' for this).
- Eddie believes that the weak should die. For instance in his MyRoom profile, he says that in Indonesia, they decapitate those who masturbate. To this, he said, "Now they have the right idea. The weak should be killed". Those are likely his targets.
- Eddie has a pet cat that he feeds "casseroles".
- Eddie is the person who posted the random encounters on whattheydonotwantyoutoknow.com
- If you take away Eddie's knife when he attacks, he will run away. Text will appear, saying: "Eddie Low is still out there, waiting..."
- Like most characters in the game, Eddie wears a unique helmet when riding alongside the protagonist on a motorbike. His helmet is black, with a stripe of dark green.

• Class 1A and 2A boys district pairings should be out today. The biggest change will be in 2A, where there are six-team districts, buying ADHD online over the counter. Expect Mediapolis to get the No. ADHD dose, 2 seed and a bye in the first round, and Pekin should get the other bye as the No. 1 seed, ADHD from canada. The rest — Notre Dame, Central Lee, Van Buren and Wapello — will be playing first-round games, ADHD FOR SALE.
• Is any team more polarizing than the Burlington boys? The wins haven't added up, Is ADHD addictive, but the Grayhounds have been in several games lately. But I want to know how a team goes from scoring two-first half points against Davenport Assumption, to putting a serious scare into No, ADHD dangers. 3 (Class 3A) Mount Pleasant. ADHD coupon, BHS' defense, for the most part, was excellent against the Panthers, purchase ADHD. ADHD FOR SALE, Coach Jeff Bloomer has made some lineup changes, and they've seemed to give the Grayhounds a bit of a spark. Still, Japan, craiglist, ebay, overseas, paypal, it's anyone's guess what the next game holds.
• The fourth tiebreaker may very well deny the Mediapolis boys the SEI Superconference North Division title. If the Bulldogs and Lone Tree finish with identical records, three tiebreakers will have already been used (head-to-head, buy no prescription ADHD online, which was a split; division record, Where to buy ADHD, same; overall record, same; then the wonderful fourth tiebreaker, which is the team that is first alphabetically), comprar en línea ADHD, comprar ADHD baratos. However, Kjøpe ADHD på nett, köpa ADHD online, it could be a moot point if Mediapolis can't win a tough road game at IMS Tuesday. That said, after seeing the Bulldogs dismantle Pekin Friday, online ADHD without a prescription, they should be a favorite to get to the Class 2A substate game.
• Mediapolis and Van Buren girls will play for the Superconference title. The Warriors technically have clinched a tie for the South Division, but will hold all the tiebreakers over Central Lee, ADHD FOR SALE. ADHD photos, It sets up the juiciest matchup of the season Friday at Vernon "Bud" McLearn Court in Mediapolis. I know I've thought about it for some time, and this should be a great game pitting Mediapolis' unrelenting defense and excellent depth against the one-two punch of Van Buren post Hanna Haynes and guard Makenzie Zeitler. Don't forget about Van Buren's Jessica Saunders as well, who averages close to 12 points per game. This could be the first of two meetings, with the second a little more meaningful — with a state tournament trip on the line.
ADHD FOR SALE, • The 1,000 career points list is about to add one more. So far this season, Zeitler, Wapello's Erika Massner and Danville's Steven Soukup each reached the milestone this season. It appears Michael Soukup is about to join his brother this week, needing just 27 points. The Soukup brothers are juniors, while Zeitler and Massner are finishing up their careers. Zeitler also became Van Buren's career rebounding leader last week against New London.
• Tuesday: Pleasant Valley at BHS (boys basketball)
• Friday: SEI Superconference Girls Shootout (Van Buren at Mediapolis).

Abolitionists were a controversial minority in the North. Most Northerners were hesitant to disrupt the country's economic status quo by challenging the institution of slavery. This invoice documenting the sale of cotton and cotton products in rural Massachusetts underscores the pervasive demand for cotton throughout the United States. While not abolitionists, per say, many Northerners did want to see the end to slavery, yet their insatiable demand for slave-produced goods kept the system profitable in the South and ensured its continuity until the Civil War.
