CELINA, Ohio (AP) -- A teen who's imprisoned in Indiana has been charged in the 2011 shooting deaths of a disabled man and his daughter who had been bound with duct tape at their farmhouse in western Ohio.
The Mercer County Sheriff's Office said Wednesday that 18-year-old Trevin Sanders has been charged with aggravated murder in the killings, which shook several rural communities in west-central Ohio near the Indiana state line.
Sanders is from Union City, a town that straddles Indiana and Ohio. He's been in prison in Indiana since last fall on unrelated charges.
Authorities found the bodies of 70-year-old Robert Grube (GROO'-bee) and his 47-year-old daughter Colleen after an apparent robbery of their Fort Recovery farmhouse in November 2011.

Dr. Black recently fulfilled all the requirements for a Ph.D. in business administration with specialization in management information systems from the School of Business and Technology Management of Northcentral University in Prescott, Ariz.
Black says the degree reflects an ongoing interest. "Really, it's a combination of business and computers, just like what I've been interested in studying in my undergraduate and master's programs."
Black has a master's degree in accounting with specialization in information systems, similar to his doctorate study.
"It fits right in with what I teach at the College of Eastern Utah and will bring more depth to what I am teaching. I think it will be of benefit to the school."
Black's dissertation is entitled Examining the Extent and Success of E-Business Adoption in Rural Small Businesses.
His research included a survey that he sent to 478 small-business owners in San Juan County.
Of those, 169 completed surveys were returned, a 45.7 percent adjusted response rate that pleased him.
"Usually, in surveys like this, there is only a return rate of 15 to 25 percent," Black said. "I was really proud of how the local businesses pitched in to help me out."
The survey questions focused on how small business use and benefit from the Internet in any aspect of their business, including "everything from using e-mail and browsing the Web to utilizing intranets and extranets," Black said.
The top uses of the Internet by businesses were browsing for information, e-mail, purchasing, and banking. The survey also showed that only 30 percent of the businesses have a Web site.
Black was able to earn his doctorate without leaving the area. His dissertation chair lives in New Jersey, and some of his committee members live as far away as Minnesota. "That's one thing I really liked about the program, it didn't require me to travel at all. I was able to do 100 percent of the dissertation right here including defend it."
Black says the experience was enlightening. "I really enjoyed getting back into the academics… but I didn't enjoy all the Saturdays in the office."
He says his wife Shauna served as his proofreader. "She is probably the only person who has completely read my dissertation all the way through besides me, and probably the only other person who ever will," he added jokingly.
Black also credited other family members and colleagues at CEU for their support and financial help from a CEU-SJC Title III program. Dr. Black plans to attend the commencement program in Prescott next June.

|RR_BanishTimers Information
- Add an option to track Sheep, Fear, Seduce, Sap, etc. (Non-stun, short-duration CC's)
- Enable the mod to retrieve Soulstone timers from other people when joining a party/raid.
Change Log:
Updates for 0.15
- Fixed the option to hide background to remain hidden when re-logging.
- Increased the accuracy of the Soulstone timer. Old timer method would lose seconds each time you zone in and out.
Updates for v0.12 - Large Changes in Saved Information - All Settings Reset!
- PLEASE NOTE: /rrbanish NO LONGER FUNCTIONS. All Options handled via FuBar / Minimap Icon at this time.
- Add an option to hide the background.
- Multi-Channel Broadcast, allowing for 2 or more channels to be broadcast, instead of just one. (Soulstones)
- Warning message for expiring Soulstones. Along with an option to set the time at which this is sent. Default is 5 minutes prior to soulstone expiring.
- Added a Warning message for Soulstone being used (ie, when the person dies). Defaults to Off.
- Automatic broadcast of Soulstone timer when cast. Your Soulstone only, at this time. (In progress for all soulstones.) Defaults to Off.
- Changed Menu structure to FuBar (minimap icon without FuBar displayed).
- FuBar Tooltip displays all Soulstone Timers. Clicking a timer will Broadcast it (exactly as if the "Send" button on the Soulstone UI were clicked).
- FuBar Text can be customized to display "RRBanish," or the number of Soulstone timers, or Unused Soulstones / Total Soulstones on timers.
- Slightly changed the code so that when a Soulstone expires, all others are shifted upward to shrink the UI a bit. Also works for Banishes.
Bugs fixed for v0.11
- UnitLevel("unit") error, Line 438. Fixed. Now uses actual rank cast instead of a guess based on unit level.
- Communication issues. Previously worked fine when others didn't have the mod, but two people using the mod would cause problems receiving the communicated data. Oops! Minor typo's. Fixed.
- Minor issue with a couple other errors caused by the communications issues.
Updates for v0.10
- WoW2.0 functionality & events.
- Allows rescaling both SS and Banish frames (from options UI, /rrbanish). Also allows shrinking the Banish Timer bar height.
- Fixed broadcast channel to use Addon channel (for both raid and party). Formerly used CTRA channel, was never removed. Oops!
- Added dropdown for selecting broadcast channel.
Tracks timers for Banish and Soulstones.
Banish Timers:
- Up to 10 timers at any given time. Changed so the mod only monitors the most recent cast (or attempted cast). This saves errors from someone spamming and having 15 timers assigned (as the mod only tracks 10, and could give an error if there are more).
- The timer lists the name of the caster and the name of their target as of casting (should be Fairly accurate).
- Instead of having the exact time, since Banish can break early, or the timer may be slightly off, it displays a Progress Bar (might add exact time later, upon request), similar to the HP bars:
- - When casting starts, the bar is White for the 1.5 second duration of casting.
- - After 1.5 seconds, the bar turns Green for the majority of the duration.
- - At 18 / 28 seconds (18 for level 47-'s 20 second Banish; 28 for level 48+'s 30 second Banish), the bar will turn Red.
- This allows you to have a fairly good idea of how long your Banish (and anyone within range of the combat log) has remaining, who had which target, etc. so as to hopefully make things slightly easier to pick back up, or chain-Banish.
Soulstone Timers:
- It shows everyone's soulstone timer within the raid. It displays the Warlock's name, hopefully the target (current target, but if you aren't targetting anything, or are targetting a mob, it would obviously be incorrect), and the time remaining.
- The mod starts countdown at 30m 3s (3 second cast time) upon the starting of casting. Again, the Warlock has to be within range of the combat log to pick it up.
- Added an option to the main UI, a button 'Send' which will broadcast to the channel (changeable in the options window) a customizable message to say 'Caster's SSTimer (Target) -- 30mins 0sec Remaining.'
- Mod will optionally allow you to broadcast expired timers (everyone's timers, not just your own). This can be turned off, or the message changed, via the options window.
- Uses the AddOn channel for greater accuracy with SS/Banish Timers. Will broadcast a message when you cast Soulstone so people outside the range of combat log will still have your timer information available.

Adam Culp has a new post to his site sharing some of his fun with Travis CI and his PHP-based applications. He recently started using it and provides a step-by-step guide of how he got started with some handy tips along the way. Travis CI is a continuous integration platform providing processes that run automated testing or other build processes when new commits are made to a repository.
I know I should have done this a long time ago, but I finally got my hands dirty with Travis CI. I wanted to set up a php project on github to use Travis CI to monitor the status, in case I forgot to run the tests prior to pushing. Unfortunately it was not as easy as it's made out to be. But now that I've done it once, it'll be easier next time. So, here is how I tackled it.
He walks you through five (or really six) different steps to getting a build process set up for your repository (complete with screenshots):
- Create a Travis CI account and link it to your GitHub account
- Add the repository to connect the build to
- Make a ".travis.yml" file to configure the build (his runs PHPUnit tests)
- Validate that PHPUnit runs locally
- Verify the webhook for Travis CI has been set up correctly
Finally, he includes a bit of description about a successful build and how to add the "badge" showing the current build status to the README of your repository (using Markdown syntax).

I looked at Dempster v. Garza last month and said either would be a solid acquisition. Dempster would be cheaper (or so we thought) and Garza would cost more. That hasn't changed.
But Garza isn't much better than one Chad Billingsley. Their numbers are eerily similar. In fact, Billingsley's career numbers are better than that of Garza's.
So, the question becomes: What would you give up for Chad Billingsley? Because that's basically the pitcher a team would acquire.
For Garza, I'd make guys like Zach Lee, Allen Webster and Joc Pederson off limits. I'd rather the Dodgers keep those guys or use them to get a bat.
The trade deadline is less than 10 days away. If the Dodgers are still insistent on buying (which they are), it's going to be an extremely interesting 10 days.
The rumor mill is already running rampant. The Dodgers have been linked (in some way) to the following players in addition to Dempster and Garza: Michael Cuddyer, Chase Headley, Cliff Lee, Hanley Ramirez, Jimmy Rollins and some I'm sure I missed.
The team remains intent on acquiring a bat, a starting pitcher and a left-handed reliever. Ned Colletti, Stan Kasten and Co. will be awfully busy in the coming days. Let's just hope no foolish deals are made.

Election of Pope Francis may be signal to new era of serviceBy SHAWNE K. WICKHAM
New Hampshire Sunday News
March 17. 2013 1:03AM
The Jesuits at a glanceHistory: The Society of Jesus, also known as the Jesuits, was founded in the 1530s by Ignatius of Loyola.
Size: The Jesuits are the largest male religious order in the world, with more than 19,000 members worldwide.
Missions: Known most widely for their role as educators in colleges and schools worldwide, they also operate more than 20 retreat centers and 70 parish churches in the U.S.
When he learned the new Pope was a fellow Jesuit, Father "Don" Keegan, S.J., said, "I almost fell off the chair I was sitting on."
"I mean, I was thrilled," said Keegan, who is pastor at St. Patrick Parish in Milford. "This sense goes through you. You get goosebumps."
The election of Cardinal Jorge Mario Bergoglio, S.J., to be the 265th successor of Saint Peter sent a similar thrill through the Society of Jesus, a religious order that operates high schools, colleges, retreat centers and parishes around the world.
Founded in the mid-16th century by Ignatius of Loyola, the Jesuits, as they are commonly called, are known for their deep scholarship and devotion to the poor.
For Americans of a certain age, they are also associated with a brand of social activism dating back to the anti-Vietnam-war and Watergate eras.
So what will it mean for the Catholic Church to have a Jesuit as its spiritual leader?
Ignatius' vision was for Society of Jesus members to walk in Christ's footsteps, Keegan said. "What we're doing is doing what He did...preaching the gospel, reaching out to the poor and the marginalized. And that's how we get this reputation, I guess, for being radical."
Keegan said he was touched when, after Pope Francis finished blessing the crowd for the first time from the balcony at St. Peter Basilica, he removed his red stole. It was, he said, "his way of showing, 'I'm a simple kind of guy. I don't need this trapping.'"
It was a very Jesuit moment, Keegan said. "Our founder, St. Ignatius, said the Jesuits should not be seeking, or take, external honors to ourselves."
The Rev. Thomas Frink is associate pastor at Saints Mary and Joseph Parish in Salem, the state's only Jesuit parish. He, too, said he was surprised and proud to have a fellow Jesuit chosen to lead the church at this time.
Frink said many have been touched by the new Pope's simplicity, by reports that he sold the lavish archbishop's home in Buenos Aires, cooked his own meals and rode the bus when he went about town.
That gives him "great credibility, especially maybe with the younger generations, for his witness that it's not about the pomp and circumstance," Frink said. "He's all about really trying to serve God."
"I think he's walking in the footsteps of Jesus, the Lenten footsteps." Frink said. "He's showing us that's the way, not riches or power, but simplicity and following Christ."
All Jesuits undergo a lengthy and rigorous period of formation, a process that can take 15 to 20 years before ordination and another five years or more before final vows, Frink said.
Because of that training, the early Jesuits became chaplains to the royalty of Europe, he said. At the same time, the order was devoted to working with "the poorest of the poor," caring for plague victims, for instance.
In addition to taking vows of "perpetual poverty, chastity and obedience," Jesuits promise "special care for the instruction of children," and "special obedience to the Sovereign Pontiff."
The order's Spiritual Exercises, written by St. Ignatius, Frink said, provide "a process of coming to know God better and understanding what He wants you to do in life." Having a Pope who has gone through that kind of spiritual discernment, he said, "is a wonderful asset for the church."
Keegan said the Jesuits' reputation as a more "radical" order "comes from the actions of individual Jesuits" - the Berrigan brothers, for instance, who were arrested for anti-war activities during the Vietnam era, and the late Rev. Robert Drinan, who served in Congress and called for Richard Nixon's resignation over the bombing of Cambodia.
But he said social activism "flows from that kind of formation, where we see ourselves as companions of Jesus Christ.
"And Jesus Christ spent his time with the poor, with the outcasts," he said. "He was a radical himself."
Lee Alphen is a lector, Eucharistic minister and sacrist at St. Joseph Church in the Salem Jesuit parish. She said she's "ecstatic" about the new Pope.
"The more I hear about him, the more excited I get," she said. "He's a real breath of fresh air."
"I think he wants to be more in touch with the people, which is what I think the Jesuits try to do," she said. "They don't really go for a lot of that pomp and circumstance."
The Rev. Jonathan DeFelice, O.S.B., president of St. Anselm College, a Benedictine college in Goffstown, said he's "just delighted" with the choice for Pope. "I think the Holy Spirit really did his work with the cardinals," he said.
"My first impression of the new Holy Father is that he is a complex man," he said. "He's a very humble man who is now the leader of the Catholic Church."
In his first public appearance after his election Wednesday, Pope Francis bowed before the people and asked for their blessing.
"I was very impressed with that," DeFelice said. "There's a man who understands the church is not him alone, that it is those hundreds of thousands of people standing out there; it's the people he has served in his home archdiocese."
"My hope is that he's going to continue to teach both by word and example, and that he will continue to bring a really positive image of the church for all of us."
Sister Maureen Sullivan, O.P., is a theology professor and Vatican II expert at St. Anselm College. The selection of the Argentine cardinal reminded her of another critical time in the church's history.
It was 1958 and the conclave of cardinals chose 76-year-old Angelo Roncalli, who became Pope John XXIII.
"At that time, they saw Roncalli as an interim, that he was old and what could he do?" Sullivan said. "And of course we know what he did."
Three months after his election, Pope John XXIII called for an ecumenical council, a gathering of church leaders that would author the church reforms known as Vatican II.
Sullivan said the election of Pope Francis, who is also 76, feels like a similar moment in time. In light of the crises facing the modern church, the choice of an "outsider" was a recognition, she said, by the cardinals that "all credibility was on the table."
"I have no idea what is in the mind of Pope Francis, but I don't rule out the possibility that this could be another moment of reform," she said. "Whether or not it involves a Council or anything as big and momentous as Vatican II, who can say?
"But there's not a doubt in my mind the vote represents that we can't keep doing business as usual," she said. "It's a new moment. It's a new time."
Sullivan expects Francis will appeal both to social progressives for his views on poverty and social justice, and to conservatives for his "hard line" on sexual morality. "Many in the church will find something they will be able to gravitate towards in this man," she said.
Brother Paul Demers is the chaplain at Bishop Guertin High School and at Rivier University, both in Nashua. He expects Francis will bring what he called "the spirituality of the Jesuits" to his new office: "You discern, you take your time, you evaluate situations before you make a move."
"They're very careful about listening to the word of Jesus. If you're in authority, you're not there to lord it over other people, but you're there to be a servant of other people."
"So the greatest is the one who serves."
Demers said he has seen that attitude already in the new Pope. And he sees a powerful symbol in his choice of Francis for his name. "St. Francis in the 13th century got a message ... he was to rebuild the church in the midst of a lot of scandals that were taking place at the time," Demers said.
"So I think this Pope said, 'I'm going to take Francis. And I'm going to undertake the rebuilding of my church.'"

NHIAA Boys' Basketball: Derryfield rises to the occasion, tops MulesBy ALEX HALL
New Hampshire Union Leader
January 16. 2018 11:44PM
NEWMARKET — Derryfield School of Manchester boys' basketball coach Rob Bradley could hardly contain his excitement after his Cougars defeated Newmarket, 56-47, in front of a healthy crowd Tuesday night at Melvin A. Cross Gymnasium.
Bradley felt coming into the contest that the Cougars would need to play their best game of the season to leave as the lone remaining undefeated team in Division IV.
"I think we played — I'm not sure as well as we can play — but pretty close," Bradley said.
Derryfield never trailed and clamped down defensively — utilizing its man-to-man scheme — in the fourth quarter, improving to 7-0 and handing Newmarket (7-1) its first loss of the season.
The Cougars had a 45-41 advantage but Newmarket built some momentum entering the fourth quarter. The Mules received 11 points from Anthony Senesombath on their way to outscoring Derryfield 18-17 in the third quarter.
Derryfield responded by allowing just six points and extending its lead to as many as 11 over the final eight minutes. Cody Bournival scored six of his 13 points in the fourth quarter to help the Cougars secure the win.
"When (Derryfield) really wanted to score, we weren't stopping them," Newmarket coach Jamie Hayes said. "Our defense was not effective tonight."
Derryfield led 15-9 after the opening quarter and had a double-digit advantage three times in the second frame before the Mules found some rhythm offensively. Newmarket ended the first half on an 8-3 run to cut the Cougars' advantage to 28-23.
Jared Woodman and Logan Willey logged four of Newmarket's points during the 8-3 run inside the final minute of the first half. Woodman was fouled on a layup and missed his ensuing free throw but Willey grabbed the rebound and scored from the paint to pull the Mules within three points.
"Even when we were making runs, I never felt like we're coming around here and we should be OK now because the defense wasn't there," Hayes said. "If we don't defend, then we don't have a shot to win."
Derryfield received strong first-half performances from Oliver Sattler and Bournival.
Sattler logged 10 of his 14 points and a rebound while Bournival had five points and two rebounds over the opening 16 minutes.
Trent Henrich recorded four points and a game-high eight rebounds for the Cougars.
Senesombath finished with a game-high 15 points for the Mules. Woodman had seven points and four rebounds and Willey tallied six points.
"I might be a little discombobulated," Bradley said with a smile. "I'm pretty psyched about this win."

BANGKOK (AP) — Asian stock markets were mostly higher Thursday, supported by Congress averting a U.S. government default and a pickup in China's manufacturing in January.
HSBC Bank said its China manufacturing index rose to a better-than-expected 51.9 in January — a two-year high — from 51.5 in December. A reading above 50 indicates expansion on a scale of 100.
Analysts at Credit Agricole CIB in Hong Kong said before the survey's release that they expected China to beat estimates. "Manufacturing sentiment should have been boosted by previous fiscal measures and optimism towards the new government," the bank said in an email.
Japan's Nikkei 225 index reversed course after three days of losses, rising 0.7 percent to 10,555.27. Hong Kong's Hang Seng fell 0.2 percent to 23,591.83. Australia's S&P/ASX 200 advanced 0.3 percent to 4,804. Benchmarks in mainland China, New Zealand and Singapore also rose. Taiwan fell. Mainland China was mixed.
South Korea's Kospi fell 0.3 percent to 1,9743.95 after the Bank of Korea said the country's economy expanded 0.4 percent in the final three months of last year, falling short of the bank's 0.8 percent growth forecast.
Investors were encouraged by developments in Washington, where the U.S. House of Representatives voted to avert the imminent threat of a government default by suspending the debt limit — the amount of money the government is allowed to borrow.
The law requires that Congress approve raising the amount the government can borrow to pay its obligations as the debt exceeds its limit, currently at $16.4 trillion.
On Wednesday, IBM single-handedly lifted the Dow Jones industrial average to a five-year high. The tech giant's quarterly earnings beat Wall Street's expectations, thanks to its lucrative Internet-based "cloud" computing business and sales of software services. But another tech giant, Apple, reported in after-hours trading that sales fell short of forecasts.
The Dow Jones industrial average rose 0.5 percent to close at 13,799, the highest level since Oct. 31, 2007. The Standard & Poor's 500 index rose 0.2 percent to 1,494.81. The Nasdaq composite rose 0.3 percent to 3,153.67.
Benchmark oil for January was up 28 cents to $95.51 per barrel in electronic trading on the New York Mercantile Exchange. The contract dropped $1.45, or 1.5 percent, to finish at $95.23 per barrel, the first decline of more than 1 percent since Dec. 21.
In currencies, the euro fell to $1.3316 from $1.3321 late Wednesday in New York. The dollar rose to 88.92 from 88.66 yen.

VGT is probably doable with all classes at least (fighter and mybe warlord being the only unknowns for me, and I'm wondering about Half-Dragons because of Golems). It inovolves scumming for certain gods on the first floor, while prepping a different god topside for the trickier propositions.
Not sure about badges, though. I've yet to manage the vicious token run - the strongest approach to VGT (Gorgon. so far), seems to have a difficult enough early game for the difficulty to ramp up faster than you can get rolling in VVGT. I'm probably way out of shape though, and if I had a few days to sink into it, maybe I'd discover something.
As far as other badges go -
Faithless is doable as long as the vampire is doable.
Parched I think I got with the Rogue.
Purist is probably a matter of scumming up the right god combo (although it also means no Whoopaz, Dragonshield or prep dependent classes (Rogue's one of those), and no altar topside). Not sure if doable, but it's free to scum, so I'm sure someone will pull it off eventualy once we figure out what exactly's the strongest class in there.
Warmonger - I've herd of people doing old Gaan'Telet warmonger (and Naga City), and it always came as a surprise to me. Getindare, and several other glyphs, seem too integral to my playstyle. It has it's benefits in free inventory slots that I never have otherwise, possible early burst piety with GG, Drac or Taurog, CP and so on...
Hoarder/Miser - it's probably doable with a resist stacker of some sort who can get all he needs from glyphs, gods and preps. Miser definitely easier than hoarder, hoarder is pure downside, with miser you can at least sink gold into TT or a prepped/stolen CB or Alch scroll (small consolation though). A hoarder Wizard of some sort might be the way to go.
As far as veto slots go - I vetoed a big bunch of spelcasting stuff for the run, mostly quest items. Can't acess the game right now, but if anyone's interested I can look into it and post my reasoning.
EDIT: As for vicious token vgt run candidates so far: Rogue, Paladin, Wizard, and Monk seem to be what pwned regular VGT the hardest. Many others haven't been tried, but as far as I know Gorgon has an easy but weird time in there, as does the Vamp but the difficulty spike from the token probably kills them. Transmuter and Priest have been done, but it's unlikely they could do a VT run.
I'm having trouble assessing actual difficulty because I haven't actually been at it for a while, and while I was, I killed myself on the firaball retaliation floor due to innatention so often that I don't have a proper grasp of how strong certain things are...
If no "auto-broken" shannenigans are just flat out broken enough to let you breeze through it, for example if Drac Paladin with VGT bloodpool levels isn't simply strong enough to beat it with little real effort or if you can't build a max res monk fast enough, so it's a matter of careful play and trickshots - I think the Wizard might actually be the guy with the biggest advantage in being able to use more glyphs, leverage CP from all of them, have more inventory space, have a cheaper GETINDARE and glyph scouting to save exploration and let him plan better. Plus, you can go almost any route with him as far as gods are concerned. Sidestepper might have insight on this, I'd love to hear about his prep checklist for a VVGT wizard run (or a regular one for that matter).

CPR for Swimming Pool Owners
Cardiopulmonary resuscitation, better known as CPR, can be a life saver if/or when an accident happens around the pool area.
Knowing what to do and going into action fast can be the difference between life and death for the victim.
First, perform an ABC, then CPR if need be.
A: Airway; establish an open airway.
B: Breathing; Look listen, and feel for signs of breathing.
C: Check; Check the victim for a pulse.
Here's how to perform CPR and help a drowning victim in need of your assistance.
If you cannot find any signs of breathing, quickly check the victim to see if they have a pulse.

There is a story, said to be true, about an Army officer traveling from Jacksonville, Florida to Macon, Georgia in the late afternoon of a day in the middle years of World War II. Parts of it I have to explain to those of you who have not lived in or near Dodge County for a long time. For those who have, you will know exactly what I am talking about.
It was getting dark and the officer decided it would be a good idea to stop in Hawkinsville to get something to eat, fearing that there would no place open by the time he got to his destination in Macon. So, he pulled in at a roadside eating joint. Beside the front door were two older gentlemen sitting on a bench. As he approached the men, the officer saw one of them reading a newspaper with a big headline on the front page. The man read out loud, "Germans take Milan." Here's the explaining part. The man pronounced the word "Mi-lun," a reference to a small town in southeastern Dodge County, once known far and wide for its toughness and lawlessness, instead of the Italian city, "Mi-lon." The other old gentleman quickly responded, "Yeah, but they'll never take Rhine!" (A town in southwestern Dodge County, a German sounding place also once known as far and as wide for its toughness and lawlessness.)
Rhine, Georgia was incorporated as a town on September 1, 1890, one hundred and twenty years ago tomorrow. Named for a large river in western Germany, the community of Rhine long held a reputation for being a raucous place in southern Central Georgia. Listening to these stories will make you believe, but if you look closely enough, you'll find that these kinds of bad boy behavior happened in many places across the state and our country.
John D. McRanie and Henry Lancaster didn't like each other. They met first in the court room. Then they stepped outside into the streets of Rhine to settle their differences. Both men grabbed each other with their left hands, reached in their pockets, grabbed their pistols, and began firing with their right hands. Lancaster struck McRanie five times. Lancaster somehow managed to come out of the fracas with a harmless glancing blow to his scalp. McRanie went to his grave in the summer of 1903.
Somehow money always seemed to figure into the killings in Rhine. In the days before January 27, 1905, temperatures had fallen to the coldest levels in years, but the tempers of several Rhine residents were as hot as ever. It was reported that Bailiff W.P. Livingston, W.B. Bryant, and W.T. Bryant attacked and severely beat a son of M.A. Burnham, all over a dispute regarding a tract of land. The following day, friends and family of the victim gathered at the assembly area to prepare for an attack on the scoundrels. Shots rang out. Mrs. Ray, a sister of one of the Bryants, rushed to the scene of the battle, only to be struck by an errant shot. Bailiff Livingston was killed. In addition to Mrs. Ray, M.A. Burnham was injured, along with both Bryants and Tom Coffee.
H.G. Everett and Manly Peacock hated each other much worse than McRanie and Lancaster. Peacock had alienated the affections of Everett's wife. Not taking too kindly to Everett's advances, Peacock's response to the incident erupted from a scuffle to all out carnage. Everett filed a damage suit in the amount of $20,000.00. When Peacock traveled to Rhine to settle the matter, the melee began. As the men were sitting on the steps of a store in the cool afternoon of November 7, 1905, Everett told Peacock he had written letters to his wife. Peacock rose to his feet and screamed, "you lie!" Peacock drew his gun and fired a blast into Everett's side. As he fell, Everett returned a single shot, striking Peacock in his head just above his ear. Peacock died an hour later. At first, doctors feared that both men would die of their wounds, but miraculously Everett, the non-aggressor, survived.
Town Marshal Tom Burnham was making his rounds on New Years Eve 1913. Burnham had tried to put a lid on the illegal liquor selling activities of the ubiquitous "blind tigers" in the town, which had the potential of elevating revelry into chaos. Walking with Burnham, who had himself been acquitted of a murder at Bowen's Mill, was M.A. Davenport. Marshal Burnham was cut down and murdered by a volley of bullets which broke his thigh in two places. Davenport was hit by shrapnel which had passed through Burnham's body. Speculators believed that the dead lawman was killed by spirit sellers or angry relatives of the victim at Bowen's Mill.
Just five years later, in the days before Christmas, another Tom Burnham met death on the streets of Rhine. Thomas W. Burnham, a restaurant owner, was gunned down by 19-year-old James Cullen Dowdy. The two got into a scrap when Burnham demanded payment for some syrup he sold to Dowdy. Dowdy exclaimed, "this syrup won't make Kennesaw liquor!" The men exchanged curses until Dowdy picked up his walking stick and whopped Burnham up side his head. Bystanders broke up the fight, if only for a little while.
Dowdy was outside the barber shop when Burnham walked up. "I'll kill him," the ego hurting youngster screamed! Burnham, urging a truce to discuss the matter, turned to go inside the barber shop. Then, Dowdy unloaded his revolver into his antagonist's abdomen, killing him dead on the spot.
New Year's hootch was again the catalyst for a near fatal fight in the early days of 1922. Cleve Studstill, a former town marshal, was working in his butcher's shop late on a Saturday afternoon. A ferocious hail of shots rang out from the direction of Mr. Stuckel's store across the way. As Studstill and his 15-year-old son ran out to see the nature of the commotion, they were ambushed by unknown assailants. After the firing of more than fifty shots, both Studstills, William Harrold, Dan Smith, George Smith, and six or seven others were lying wounded in the streets. Cleve Studstill, the most severely wounded combatant, was taken to a Dublin hospital for treatment.
It seems that it was always open season on the marshals of Rhine. J.J. Lancaster had only been on duty for a few weeks in February 1923, when an unknown assailant hiding under a small bridge attempted to assassinate him right on the town's main street. No motive was found for the attack. Authorities later arrested B.W. Smith and his sons, Joe and J.B., for the attempt to murder the marshal.
The Dowdys were back in the news in November 1923, when Mrs. Oscar Kirkland shot H.A. Dowdy after he allegedly made some unflattering remarks about her. Mrs. Kirkland, believing the maxim that some men need killing, emptied a load of buckshot into her nemesis, breaking one of his legs.
The Germans had heard these and many more reports about the residents of the namesake of their homeland. And, they completely abandoned all plans to invade the lower Ocmulgee valley. But, if the Germans, or any other invading army, ever decide to attack us, I am digging my foxhole in downtown Rhine, where it is said, "all the good people have killed off all the bad people."

Mathieu Debuchy's 20-year association with Lille came to an end when he joined Newcastle United on Friday.
During his time with the northern French outfit, the 27-year-old saw his side traverse from Ligue 2 into Champions League regulars, plus radical changes on a personal level, too.
Having initially started his career as a deep-lying central midfielder, it was found that Debuchy's energy and flair for pushing forward was better utilised in the right-back role, where he excelled for les Dogues as they won Ligue 1 and the Coupe de France in 2010-11.
Long before then, the Fretin-born player was impressing with his solid defensive work, yet it was his offensive contribution that was the most eye-catching of his characteristics. Quick, athletic and attack minded, he is a full-back perfectly suited for the all-action modern game, particularly as he can provide excellent service on a regular basis from his flank.
|Mehdi Abeid
|Romain Amalfitano
|Hatem Ben Arfa
|Yohan Cabaye
|Sylvain Marveaux
|Gabriel Obertan
Certainly, he will relieve the unwanted situation of Davide Santon playing out of position on the right of the back four, and Newcastle fans should look forward to their new addition playing in a similar style to Cesar Azpilicueta at Chelsea.
Indeed, Debuchy would appear better placed to make an immediate impact at his new club. Not only is he a more mature and athletic character than the Spaniard, he will find a French enclave at St James' Park that should quickly settle in.
Most notably, close friend and former Lille team-mate Yohan Cabaye, who has long been pushing for the arrival of his international colleague, will be waiting, and the midfielder is likely to take it upon himself to ensure Debuchy enjoys a smooth transition from the north-east of France to the north-east of England.
In France's opening match of Euro 2012 against England, Debuchy showed why he has the potential to excel in the Premier League. He regularly raided forward to good effect, with his pace, strength and technique on full display, as well as his dead-eye crossing ability. For all of his desire to attack, though, his defensive duties were never neglected, and he was regularly found barring any progress down the right channel.
With only a year left to run on his contract at Lille, and with heads turned in his direction, leaving his formative club for the first time in his career suddenly looked like a probability. Unwilling to allow such a prized player to follow the irreplaceable Eden Hazard out of the club, president Michel Seydoux dug his heels in and rejected Newcastle's initial advances, which came to the tune of €5 million [£4m] – a steal for a player of such quality.
|Newcastle are 7/1 to be relegated with Paddy Power
Though the summer attacks were seen off, Lille were always unlikely to dismiss a further winter raid, particularly after a disappointing campaign to date, and with the contract of the player quickly winding down, they have been left with little option but to sell.
Debuchy, whose performances last season even saw him tentatively rumoured to have interested Jose Mourinho at Real Madrid, never made a secret of his desire to leave for the Toon, where he will join former Lille team-mate and best friend Cabaye.
"At times it was a decision that was difficult to deal with over the summer and, yes, I was disappointed," he confessed in an October interview with L'Equipe, and though he promised to give "200 per cent" for his club, the some of the gusto with which he had played previously was lost.
Nevertheless, the influence of the defender has remained great enough for club-mate Nolan Roux to already lament his loss, not only on the field but in the locker rooms too. "I am very happy for him, even if we will lose a very good player," he told RMC on Wednesday. "Mathieu is a person that I love."
Debuchy, however, will not find adoration hard to come by on Tyneside should he continue the form that he has shown in France. The fans of Newcastle will love his gallant offensive approach to the game, which should bring an extra dimension to their attacking play, while the move to England will allow the player the opportunity to earn the recognition that a full-back of his calibre deserves.

When it comes to weddings, at least, the government shutdown may be considered an act of God.
Plenty of stories emerged during the shutdown of couples forced to come up with a Plan B because the park or monument where they planned to wed was closed. Now that the government is back up and running, they may be looking to get their money back.
If there's good news, it's that costs for a wedding ceremony tend to be a small slice of the total wedding budget. (Permits from national parks and monuments typically do not allow on-site receptions.) In 2012, couples spent $1,395 on ceremony costs—not including an officiant to marry them—according to The Wedding Report. That's 5.4 percent of the average $25,656 wedding cost.
Like a strike or natural disaster, the shutdown likely qualifies as a force majeure, or act of God, said attorney and former wedding planner Katy Carrier, founder of Law for Creatives. The shutdown was something neither the couple nor the venue could control, so technically, the contract wasn't breached.

WEST HAVEN — Bristol's Josh Masterson edged Middlebury's Hunter Bates with a final-lap pass to win a 25-lap Late Model feature and highlight local drivers' efforts on Friday at the Devil's Bowl Speedway.
Masterson also took second in the other 25-lap Late Model feature, moving up from fifth on another final-lap maneuver in which the cars ran four wide and he passed three other drivers, a move that race organizers said drew a loud ovation from the crowd.

When there's a Guinness World Record at stake, oyster shucking gets serious
How many oysters can you eat in three minutes? Most folk wouldn't know, but at Ireland's oyster festivals the competition is the main game. The current Guinness World Record holder (233 shucks in three minutes), Colin Shirlow, has held the title since 2005, so a worthy opponent is needed this year.
And this year is a big one for oysters in Ireland. The delicacy is such a gem of Ireland's food heritage that the island has its own dedicated oyster season when food festivals all over the country celebrate the humble mollusc. September is seafood month and shucking (opening) is the main verb on the island.
No less than four festivals will be celebrating the moreish molluscs with tastings, music, parades and some competitions to break a world record or two. So here's to the salty, seafood-nourishing Atlantic Ocean and Irish Sea. We always knew there was something special in Ireland's seawater and the oysters are proof.
Cracking open the season a little earlier on 8 August is Carlingford Oyster Festival in County Louth. Carlingford's Lough (yes, it's called a 'lough' but it's effectively a large inlet with an open mouth to the Irish Sea) is the source of their oysters and cements this pretty coastal town with a reputation for outstanding seafood. The four day festival includes an oyster pearl hunt, a sailing regatta, the world crab fishing contest, street entertainment, an oyster tent, food stalls and artisan craft markets and the famous Carlingford seafood chowder. In short: it's busy.
The next oyster hot spot is the Clarenbridge Oyster Festival, south of Galway City, where a sheltered bay and delicate ratio of fresh and salt water means oyster perfection. Come 13 September the oysters will be shucked and the slurping will begin. This will also be a family affair as Clarenbridge invites back its recent emigrants for family reunions galore. The weekend begins with the Market day, which showcases the town's traditional wares such as crafts, food, music, song and dance.
And last but not least is the 59th Galway International Oyster Festival at the end of September. Galway is renowned for a good party, and it hosts the oysters in its usual cosy revelry style. The headline event is the incredible work of expert shuckers at the World Oyster Opening Championships. Watch, gasp and let your appetite lead you to a Seafood Trail for dinner.

Also on the bill of what the Sunday Times called "one of the 12 greatest shows on earth", is the Tribal Oyster Feast Off. This is part of The Gathering 2013 and sees Galway (the City of the Tribes) calling its tribes' people home. From the late 12th century, 14 merchant families ruled the city. They transformed the city, creating a golden age of prosperity right up to the mid 17th century – these were the Galway Tribes.
Tribe members can enter a competition to win free tickets to the festival provided you have one of the lucky 14 tribe names: Athy, Blake, Bodkin, Browne, D'Arcy, Deane, Ffont, Ffrench, Joyce, Kirwan, Lynch, Martin, Morris, Skerritt. Or if you can prove a link in your heritage/by marriage to one of the Tribes, you are also eligible (spelling variations accepted).
And if you're not fortunate enough to be a Galway tribe member, fear not, regular folk are still welcome at the oldest oyster festival in the world! So, will you be shucking?

Another good one. What do you think? Should they have more backing? Is it right to use them? ect....
I think it is, we have something that may very well be the miracle cure for many deadly diseases and illnesses and it is limited. There are tons of sources that are sitting in donor banks that wil never be used that are thrown away which is a waste.
Stem cell research shouldnt be limited like it is. There's supposed to be a separation of church and state ... what a load of crap.
Former Crunchyroll Employee
True but chruch and state are never really seraprate in this country. Reason being christains are a majority and if they dont aprove of something they pro test and the goverment gets afarid of loseing votes and doesnt do what they were going to do. Also that is alot of what this country trys to base there moral beleifs off of. For expamle in idaho i belive it was they wanted to teach both evoluation and a supreme being theory for why we are here. Altough it sounds like a reglion it is really just a teaching that there might be a possiblity aliens/a god/ or something along those lines that helped with the makeing of the humans. True there is no said god in this or none of his teachings. The christains protested and so they stoped teaching it. Which makes no since at all because it wasnt really regilious at all but it went against there god there fore they couldnt let them teach it.
Well i do agree with you there basou. Like i said befor i think they need to spend more time studying adult cells befor they move on to babies. It is true that babies have more possibly uses and are easy to program, but there is still a good use for adult ones and they can learn alot makeing baby ones more usefull and more right with the people. Reason being the more you know about the more you can do with them. Only reason they dont like adult ones is because there are already programed with a set job. So it is really hard for them, but i think research is easy and if they learn more about why this cell had this job and how it did it is job. It would make baby ones look like a pice of cake.
The one the only.
Like most controversies, the reason they are a controversy is because there is simply not enough evidence on either side.
I think it is wrong to limit it the way The US is doing it, and I also think it is wrong what some people in favor of Stem Cells are doing, and that is oversimplifying the subject to make people think that once we allow more research, there would be hundreds of new cures available in only a few years. Stem Cells are still a relatively new scientific field, and it takes time to make things right. It reminds me when the news started making people think that genetic cures would not take long to become a reality once the human genome would be decoded, that is wrong. Is like saying I am smart just because I own a huge library; sure the knowledge is in there, but there is one more thing I need to do: Start READING the good books!
In Colombia...having a blast
no one said anything about the human gnome it is a step towards spine repair is it major thing. No one said hunderd of uses. Altought we dont know all it can be used for. What they are focusing on is spinal repair with the cells.
The one the only.
^ I said some people, and the human genome thing I wrote it because it reminds me of those people.
I'm in favor of Stem Cells but that does not mean we should oversimplify the subject like the media or the politicians do.
In Colombia...having a blast
Fuck researching em , those stem cells go great on a chili dog.
Just wasting time.
Stem cells are going to help retartds like Gev regeranate some brain cells and god knows we need more of that in this world I am all pro stem cell, and people who compare stem cells to abortion can just shuddup cuz no life is lost in Stem Cell research
well that is true and my bad for the misunderstanding. The media and goverment like to simplifiy it because then they can just say its bad right after that and the people belive them. I mean they did it with eggs. People stoped eating them because they said they were bad, then they started again because they were good for you etc.. for awhile like that. I mean they use media to control the public is there reasoning.
The one the only.
I think that oborshin is wrong but people are going to do it anyway so we shoulg use the stems the help people.
Manly like.
I did not read your post bfor , yup the politics involved n this issue makes it stupid, I mean its easy fot you and me to understand all of this but those old armish bastartds in the senate or the house just dont get it. And the only thing I really hate Bush for was vetoing the stem cell bill so that e could get some conservatives on his side but his veto was overruled
I never noticed it bfor but your avatar is cool thepen
to discuss stem cells, you at least need a bit of research on them. Try a book by Campbell & Reece called Biology. it tell you your answer in there.
all i have to say is stem cells are delicious >:@
simple get a robot as president, he wont care about feelings or religion WIN WIN situation =P
yes and no
if stem cells could help develop cure for AIDS and cancer?...then hellz yes
but definately not for cloning. it just seems wrong to me, as if the clone werent a real person
Rockin' the speedo; City Champs, bitch!

Energy efficient doors, windows and conservatories from Yorkshire Windows are probably the best way to make your home better insulated and reduce your energy bills.
In fact double glazed products can cut your heat loss through the doors and windows by around a half. That means that the heat inside will be staying where it should be - in your home and not outside!
Plus the process of heating our homes is responsible for a large proportion of the UK's overall CO2 emissions which, as most of us know, is having has a direct impact on increased climate change.
All double glazed windows can now be rated in the same way as white goods, such as fridges and washing machines. Here at Yorkshire Windows, our energy rated windows have undergone rigorous tests to ensure they provide the best energy ratings, as outlined by the British Fenestration Rating Council (BFRC).

Engineering with a mission: 100 years
The long view
Build it safer and stronger—sustainably.
Mark Aschheim and Tonya Nilsson believe in complementary goals when it comes to construction: Make a building structurally sound so that it can withstand an earthquake that may never come. And build it with materials that won't deplete natural resources or harm the environment.
Aschheim chairs SCU's Department of Civil Engineering, where Nilsson is a lecturer. With assistance from undergraduate and graduate students, they're testing the use of innovative building materials and systems that tread lightly on the earth, while ensuring that buildings and their inhabitants can survive tremors.
Mighty bamboo
Aschheim pioneered the use of bamboo in structural I-beams in SCU's 2007 Solar Decathlon house. He and Nilsson are quick to extol the many sustainability and structural advantages of bamboo compared to conventional alternatives. "It grows rapidly and it sequesters carbon very rapidly. This carbon stays sequestered, assuming we don't burn the building down. And the bamboo does not decay at the end of the useful life of the building."
Nilsson notes that bamboo can first be harvested after only four to six years; after that, you can re-harvest every three to four.
"It's a grass: You chop it down and it grows like your lawn. The root system stays intact," Aschheim adds. "It sprouts new shoots and continues growing; whereas with trees it's 30 to 50-plus years before you can harvest, and when you cut it down, it's done."
Bamboo is also strong for its weight—three to four times stronger than softwoods typically used in construction. One advantage is shape: Bamboo is hollow, "inherently optimal from a structural point of view," Aschheim says. "Anything you can do with softwood you can do with bamboo. That includes load-bearing walls, shear walls, floor joists, and plywood on top of floors."
But there's a catch: In order for bamboo to become a mainstream building material, building codes must be updated and code enforcement officials persuaded to permit the use of the emerging technology. Aschheim and his collaborators have developed "acceptance criteria" for bamboo I-joists so that building code officials recognize its use; now the engineers are working on criteria for other bamboo components. This process will require time and patience—starting small, getting projects approved at the local level on a case-by-case basis. "At some point, demand will come, and if building officials see it more and more, then it does push code development," says Nilsson.
Aschheim and Nilsson hope that work under way in the School of Engineering's new Structures Lab can hasten the deployment of bamboo and straw bale, another less common but environmentally sensible building material.
The greatest promise—and need
The earthquake that struck Haiti in January 2010 took a heavy toll in human life for several reasons; one factor was poorly constructed buildings in densely populated Port-au-Prince. A safer but cost-effective approach to construction could save lives in the future. Aschheim, Nilsson, and their students have tested pieces of the building systems they would like to deploy in Haiti.
"The idea is to tread very lightly on the environment, using local materials, preferably recycled materials, as much as possible," says Aschheim.
The new building system was developed in conjunction with the Ecological Building Network. It begins with a 3-foot-high wall of concrete block made using a low-cement mix and recycled concrete rubble. A bamboo framing system is anchored atop the wall. To attach the bamboo, a length of rebar is set into the concrete block wall, with one part sticking up out of the wall. The bamboo frame is set over the rebar, taking advantage of the bamboo's hollow shape, and held in place with mortar. This connects the elements. Care must be taken, however, that the bamboo column does not touch the concrete block, because moisture could infiltrate the column. To create the necessary distance, the column is raised an inch or so off the block, which exposes a small section of rebar. The bar is flexible and ductile; during an earthquake, that protects the frame from damage. However, the rebar, if left exposed to the elements, will eventually rust. An easy solution to this problem is to protect the bar with a bottle top from a plastic Coke bottle. The bottom of the plastic bottle top is set into mortar along the top of the concrete block wall, and the top of the bottle top is inserted into the bamboo column, to keep hold in place the mortar that bonds the rebar to the bamboo column.
Damage assessment
|Epicenter: The 2010 Haiti earthquake. U.S. Geological Society
Aschheim witnessed firsthand the life-or-death importance of sound earthquake engineering on a tour of Japan after the magnitude 9.0 Tohoku earthquake, in March 2011. Aschheim joined a National Science Foundation-funded reconnaissance team for five days in the field, inspecting the shaking damage resulting from the quake and aftershocks.
The experience prompted Aschheim to ask if engineers need to re-evaluate the conventional wisdom that prioritizes the avoidance of structural damage in buildings. "Earthquakes occur so rarely that it's very expensive to design buildings not to be damaged at all, because the forces are quite high. The paradigm has been to design buildings that are ductile, because ductile systems can be designed at lower cost to withstand earthquake demands. Even while this approach provides for life safety, the problem is that this ensures structural damage will occur even in moderate earthquakes," he says. "At some point you have to ask: 'Is this serving society very well?'" After all, it does a community little good if a hospital survives a quake but is so badly damaged that it cannot treat injuries in the aftermath.
"We know how to approach this problem," Aschheim says, "and considering different structural systems and possibly making buildings that are stronger can reduce the damage—and the larger social and economic consequences." Building retrofits that increased stiffness, such as installing concrete shear walls or steel braced frames, were effective. Other technologies, such as buckling-restrained braced frames and base isolation, which couples rubber pads with steel plates, also have a place.
But that, too, would need to be reflected in building codes.

Search Options
To search for a particular committee, choose the
Committee Search
. Search options include name, address, and committee ID. Basic information for each committee includes the name, address, officers, candidates or propositions supported or opposed, and a filing history.
candidate search
may be conducted by using any of the available fields. Entering the candidate's last name is usually the best way to search; first name may be used if there is only one possible spelling. A candidate who has run for more than one office will appear as a separate candidate for each office sought. A candidate may or may not form a new committee for each new office. Selection of a particular candidate will lead to the committee formed by this candidate and ultimately to the committee's filing history.
A search for contributions may be a simple
Contribution Search
or they can be searched by Candidate, Committee, or Proposition. There are five different categories of receipts; individual contributions, transfers in, loans received, other receipts, and in-kind contributions (gifts of goods or services). You may search all types or each separately. Only receipts exceeding $150 in aggregate are itemized at the time of filing; therefore, smaller contributions cannot be searched by contributor. The following information is available: For all contributions the contributor name and address, amount of contribution, and date received; Occupation and employer for all individuals contributing more than $500; Total loan amount, loan endorsers, and amount endorsers for loans received; and a Description of all in-kind contributions.
Expenditures may be searched by using a simple
Expenditure Search
or they can be searched by Candidate, Committee, or Proposition. There are three different categories of expenditures; transfers out, loans made, and general expenditures. Like contributions, you may search all types or each separately. Only expenditures exceeding $150 in aggregate to a single vendor will be itemized at the time of filing; therefore, smaller expenditures will not be searchable as that information was not filed with the Board. Information included for each expenditure is the amount and date of the expenditure, the purpose of the expenditure, the beneficiary of the expenditure, and the vendor name and address.
Committee Totals
Totals for committees
may also be searched. Summary totals from the latest report filed by each committee may be found in the search. Latest committee totals may be searched by name, city, and even a zip code range. Latest committee totals may also be searched by candidate and by proposition. It may be a search for a single candidate or a category of candidates; the same holds true for a proposition search.
Summary Committee Totals
Summary Committee Totals
adds together totals for each report for all committees found in the search. Based upon the search criteria entered, these totals may include not only figures from more than one committee, but also figures from more than one reporting period. Summary Committee Totals may be for a single committee or for a category of committees. Summary Committee Totals also may be searched by a candidate or category of candidates or by a proposition or a category of propositions.

FAIRBANK, Alaska (AP) — High water forced the cancellation of the Red Green Regatta in Fairbanks over the weekend, with the fun moved off the water and into a parking lot.
Participants, who build floats from recycled materials and a required minimum of one roll of duct tape, had been warned last week to plan for less clearance under bridges than in the past and to consider adjustments for tall boats. The main concern was with the low hang of the Veterans Memorial Bridge, which only allowed for several feet of clearance in the days leading to Sunday's scheduled regatta.
Gretchen Gordon, assistant general manager at KUAC, which sponsored the event, said organizers went over their options, including possibly changing the route or pushing the regatta back. But she said a suitable alternative route could not be found and they were skeptical they'd be able to run the event in the next few weeks given how rainy the summer has been.
Water levels on the Chena River peaked between Thursday and Friday before beginning to fall, the Fairbanks Daily News-Miner reported (http://bit.ly/1nb08sw ). A forecast earlier in the week had estimated the river would fall between 5 feet and 6 feet by Sunday. It was 5.7 feet by noon on Sunday.
In the end, the event was moved off the water, and into a parking lot, where entries were judged.

Semiannual Report to Congress
The Inspector General Act of 1978 (Public Law 95-452), as amended, requires that the Inspector General report semiannually to the head of the Department and the Congress on the activities of the office during the 6-month periods ending March 31 and September 30. The semiannual reports are intended to keep the Secretary and the Congress fully and currently informed of significant findings and recommendations by the Office of Inspector General.
Spring 2018 Semiannual Report to Congress
This spring edition of the Semiannual Report to Congress covers OIG activities from October 2017 through March 2018. Historically, about 80 percent of OIG's resources are directed to work related to Medicare and Medicaid. This is mirrored in the organization and content of the report.

I spoke at VALA 2008, Australia's biennial library conference, this past week. My participation was spurred initially by a request to deliver a paper on behalf of OCLC's Robin Murray, who could not attend. Soon after I agreed, the organizers invited me to stand in for a keynote speaker who had to cancel due to a family emergency. My first ever double-substitution conference.
The topic of the conference (Libraries: Changing Spaces, Virtual Places) gave me a perfect opportunity to combine two areas of interest – social networking and canonical identifiers – to present a case for how library systems might bring their assets into sharper Web focus.
OCLC has been exploring an important facet of this problem (canonical manifestation identifiers), and the VALA conference afforded a timely opportunity to announce this exploration. The tentative name for these identifiers: Global Library Manifestation Identifiers, or Glimirs for short.
The community at large is increasingly aware of the importance of canonical identifiers for FRBR entities, especially Group I entities (Works, Expressions, Manifestations, and Items). Existing OCLC numbers approximate manifestation identifiers, but ironically, as the database grows in scope, this rough correspondence is reduced through the loading of records in various languages. These are not duplicates, but rather alternative institutional, regional, or language representations that point to a given resource.
The need for explicit manifestation identifiers thus becomes more evident. We need identifiers that are globally scoped, business neutral, usable by all, and managed in either a centralized or federated manner. To the extent that such identifiers are canonical – that is, become the dominant identifier for a given asset, they increase the "URI equity" for library assets and will strengthen the library presence on the Web.
Interesting and challenging issues arise in the design of such identifiers and their supporting infrastructure. Broad adoption will require a careful balance of use-cases, business issues, and community participation in meeting the need. All of this in an environment already crowded with myriad special purpose identifiers. OCLC is launching a pilot to explore these issues. An early proposal has been shared with a number of technical and policy leaders and their valuable feedback will be used to strengthen the effort and move it to the next stage.
Stay tuned.

(CNN) March 14th, 2014 - Talk about thieves in the temple.Some $600,000 in cash and check donations were stolen this week from Lakewood Church in Houston, according to the city's police department.Incredibly, all of the money was from one weekend's donations, the church says. For many American churches, $600,000 in tithes would be a good month or even year.The church, which is pastored by bestselling author and preacher Joel Osteen, told congregants the stolen money came from contributions on March 8 and 9.The theft occurred between Sunday afternoon and Monday morning. About $200,000 in cash and $400,000 in checks were stolen from a church safe, said Houston Police Department spokeswoman Jodi Silva.The investigation is ongoing and no arrests have been made, Silva said.Lakewood Church also warned congregants to keep an eye on their credit and bank accounts, since some of the stolen goods include envelopes with credit card information on them. The church said there was no electronic data breach, though, and the stolen money is insured.Officials at the evangelical church declined further comment.According to Christian researchers, Lakewood is the largest church in the country, with some 43,500 members attending Sunday services. It meets in a former sports and entertainment arena just outside downtown Houston.The church's popularity has been built on Osteen's relentlessly optimistic, and some say unbiblical, teachings, which often focus as much on self-help as eternal salvation."Part of my ... success is that I've stayed in my lane," Osteen told CNN in 2012, "and my lane is lifting people's spirits."http://religion.blogs.cnn.com/2014/03/14/600000-stolen-from-joel-osteens-megachurch/?hpt=hp_t3
Seriously, you guys are the meanest people I have ever met. I hope you are happy and feel really good about yourself.
Sounds like Joel is bringing in 30 million a year. Well, this year. Normally its a little more, but what with the robbery and all...Hey, what's with this "insurance" thingy? If you've got God on your side, WTF do you need insurance for? A little writing on the wall at the culprits house should get the money back right quick, then a little smiting would end the threat. Problem over, and no pesky premiums. Have they no faith?

Derry man sentenced for assault, threateningBy JAMES A. KIMBLE
Union Leader Correspondent
May 14. 2013 8:52PM
BRENTWOOD — A Derry man was sentenced on Tuesday to serve two to five years in state prison for assaulting his girlfriend and threatening to kill her with a shotgun.
Joseph Greenquist, 25, pleaded guilty to second-degree assault, criminal threatening and being a felon in possession of a weapon as part of a negotiated plea deal with county prosecutors.
He received a suspended 3½ to 7 year state prison sentence on the weapons charge that begins once he is released from custody.
Derry police arrested Greenquist on the night of July 29 after his girlfriend fled from her Everett Street apartment and reported the assault.
Prosecutors say Greenquist strangled the woman and slapped her on the buttocks at least four times with his hands, and forced the 21-year-old woman into a bedroom closet.
He propped a chair against the door to keep her from getting out.
Greenquist told his girlfriend that "they would both end up murdered if she did not stop acting like a brat," according to court records.
He then started "pulling the trigger and working the action of a shotgun while positioned outside of a closet so that (she) could hear the weapon while trapped inside," prosecutors said. Greenquist has been in county jail for 291 days, which will count toward his state prison sentence. He was indicted on two counts of criminal threatening, six counts of simple assault and charges of false imprisonment, second-degree assault and being a felon in possession of a weapon.
Prosecutors agreed to drop misdemeanor charges in the case in exchange for his guilty plea.
Greenquist could have faced up to 20 years behind bars and a $4,000 fine had he been convicted by a jury.
Greenquist was barred from having a weapon because of a 2006 burglary conviction in Strafford County Superior Court.
