South Carolina hit by torrential rainfall, hundreds rescued
CHARLESTON, S.C. BY HARRIET MCLEOD
Persistent torrential rainfall caused dangerous flooding in South Carolina's main cities on Sunday and prompted hundreds of rescues through shoulder-deep waters across the southeastern U.S. state.
No deaths had been reported, although five traffic fatalities in North and South Carolina were blamed on a weather system that dropped more than 18 inches (45 cm) of rain in one part of South Carolina. The state climatologist forecast another 2 to 6 inches (5 to 15 cm) through Monday as the rainfall began to slacken.
South Carolina Governor Nikki Haley said parts of the state were hit with rainfall that would be expected to occur once in a thousand years, with the Congaree River running at its highest level since 1936.
"Our goal is all hands on deck. If you are in your house, stay in your house," Haley told a news conference. "This is not something to be out taking pictures of."

WLTX Staff 4:36 p.m. EDT October 4, 2015
Columbia, SC (WLTX) - The weather has taken a severe turn for the worse across much of the Midlands, as the intense rainfall has finally arrived across the area, leading to catastrophic flooding in the area. .
Here is the latest information about the storm.
What's Happening Now:
South Carolina crisis officials say they are responding to emergency situations all across the state. They're coordinating with state and local leaders to determine the best places to put resources.
By mid-Sunday afternoon, the South Carolina National Guard said they were conducting rescue missions by helicopter. Richland County Council Chairman Torrey Rush said they have declared an emergency countywide.
Dozens--or perhaps hundreds--of calls for rescues have been taken across the state. News19 has seen people have to be rescued from city streets and the rooftops of homes. Thousands of people have been forced to evacuate.
Columbia Mayor Steve Benjamin has instituted a mandatory citywide curfew from 6 p.m. Sunday until 6 a.m. Monday, and a boil water advisory is in effect for the entire town. The City of Sumter has also imposed a curfew from from 7 p.m. to 7 a.m.
Here's what's happened.
Overnight, the rain intensified dramatically throughout the Midlands. By early Sunday morning, water had covered many streets throughout the city of Columbia and in other parts of . It's estimated that almost 20 inches of rain has fallen in some parts of the Midlands.
Cars were seen stalled out at intersections, and many roads were impassable. Man roads across the region have been washed out.
Even the Interstates were not spared. Interstate 77, Interstate 26, and Interstate 20 have all had spotty road closures. Perhaps the worst situation was out on Interstate 95 in the eastern side of the Midlands. At one point, a nearly 74 mile stretch of that road was closed between Interstate 26 and Interstate 95. Over the coming days, people should check the SCDOT website before venturing out on any roads.Road Closures in the Midlands
South Carolina's Emergency Management Division has moved to Operation Condition One, their highest level of readiness.
That status indicates that a disaster or emergency situation is in effect and full emergency operations are ongoing. The Department of Public Safety says three people have died on state roads since the storms began, but that figure was given before the worst of the storm moved in.

CHAPTER 31
MOVEMENT
"They'll come to see you again. They've probably done ii background check on you and-"
"What's that mean?"
"Talk to your neighbors, coworkers, check your credit history, your car, whether you have tickets, any criminal convictions, look for anything that suggests that you could be a bad guy," Henriksen explained.
"There isn't anything like that on me," Kirk said.
"I know." Henriksen had done the same sort of check himself. There was no sense in having somebody with a criminal past out breaking the law in the name of the Project. The only black mark against him was Maclean's membership in Earth First, which was regarded by the Bureau almost as a terrorist-well, extremist organization. But all Maclean did with that bunch was to read their monthly newsletter. They had a lot of good ideas, and there was talk in the Project about getting some of them injected with the "B" vaccine, but they had too many members whose ideas of protecting the planet were limited to driving nails into trees, so that the buzz saws would break. That sort of thing only chopped up workers in sawmills and raised the ire of the ignorant public without teaching them anything useful. That was the problem with terrorists, Henriksen had known for years. Their actions never matched their aspirations. Well, they weren't smart enough to develop the resources they needed to be effective. You had to live in the economic eco-structure to believe that, and they just couldn't compete on that battlefield. Ideology was never enough. You needed brains and adaptability, too. To be one of the elect, you had to be worthy. Kirk Maclean wasn't really worthy, but he was part of the team. And now he was rattled by the attention of the FBI. All he had to do was stick to his story. But he was shook up, and that meant he couldn't be trusted. So, they'd have to do something about it.
"Get your stuff packed. We'll move you out to the Project tonight." What the hell, it would be starting soon anyway. Very soon, in fact.
"Good," Maclean responded, finishing his egg salad. Henriksen was eating pastrami, he saw. Not a vegan. Well, maybe someday.
Artwork was finally going up on some of the blank walls. So, Popov thought, the facility wasn't to be entirely soulless. It was nature paintings-mountains, forests, and animals. Some of the pictures were quite good, but most of them were ordinary, the kind of thing you found on the walls of cheap motels. How strange, the Russian thought, that with all the money they'd spent to build this monstrous facility in the middle of nowhere, that the artwork was second-rate. Well, taste was taste, and Brightling was a technocrat, and doubtless uneducated in the finer aspects of life. In ancient times he would have been a druid, Dmitriy thought, a bearded man in a long white robe who worshiped trees and animals and sacrificed virgins on stone altars to his pagan beliefs. There were better things to do with virgins. There was such a strange mixture of the old and the new in this man-and his company. The director of security was a "vegan," who never ate meat? What rubbish! Horizon Corporation was a world leader in several vital new technological areas, but it was peopled by madmen of such primitive and strange beliefs. He Supposed it was an American affectation. Such a huge country, the brilliant coexisting with the mad. Brightling was a genius, but he'd hired Popov to initiate terrorist incidents-
–and then he'd brought Popov here. Dmitriy Arkadeyevich thought about that as he chewed his dinner. Why here? What was so special about this place?
Now he could understand why Brightling had shrugged off the amount he'd transferred to the terrorists. Horizon corporation had spent more paving one of the access roads than all the money Popov had taken from the corporate coffers and translated into his own. But this place was important. You could see that in every detail, down
the revolving doors that kept the air inside-every door,, ay he'd seen was like some sort of air lock, and made him think of a spacecraft. Not a single dollar had been spared make this facility perfect. But perfect for what?
Popov shook his head and sipped at his tea. The quality of the food was excellent. The quality of everything was excellent, except the absurdly pedestrian artwork. There was, therefore, not a single mistake here. Brightling was not the sort of man to compromise on anything, was he? Therefore, Dmitriy Arkadeyevich told himself, everything acre was deliberate, and everything fit into a pattern, from which he could discern the purpose of the building and the man who'd erected it. He'd allowed himself to be beguiled this day with his tour-and his physical examination? What the hell was that all about? The doctor had given him an injection. A "booster" he'd called it. But what for? Against what? Outside this shrine to technology was a mere farm, and outside that, wild animals, which his driver of the day had seemed to worship.
Druids, he thought. In his time as a field officer in England he'd taken the time to read books and learn about the culture of the English, played the tourist, even traveled to Stonehenge and other places, in the hope of understanding the people better. Ultimately, though, he found that history was history, and though highly interesting, no more logical there than in the Soviet Union-where history had mainly been lies concocted to fit the ideological pattern of Marxism-Leninism.
Druids had been pagans, their culture based on the gods supposed to live in trees and rocks, and to which human lives had been sacrificed. That had doubtless been a measure exercised by the druid priesthood to maintain their control over the peasants… and the nobility, too, in fact, as all religions tended to do. In return for offering some hope and certainty for the greatest mysteries of life - what happened after death, why the rain fell when it did, how the world had come to be-they extracted their price of earthly power, which was to tell everyone how to live. It had probably been a way for people of intellectual gifts but ignoble birth to achieve the power associated with the nobility. But it had always been about power - earthly power. And like the members of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union, the druid priesthood had probably believed that which they said and that which they enforced because-they had to believe it. It had been the source of their power, and you had to believe in that.

CHAPTER 21
STAGES
It was distasteful to watch people making love. Not the least bit arousing for him, playing voyeur. Anne Pretloe, F5, was within two days of symptoms, judging by her blood work, eating, drinking, and being very merry right before his eyes on the black and-white monitor. Well, the tranquilizers had lowered every subject's resistance to loose behavior, and there was no telling what she was like in real life, though she certainly knew the techniques well enough.
Strangely, Killgore had never paid attention to this sort of thing in animal tests. Rats, he imagined, came into season, and when they did, the boy rats and girl rats must have gotten it on, but somehow he'd never noticed. He respected rats as a life-form, but didn't find their sexual congress the least bit interesting, whereas here, he had to admit to himself, he did find his eyes returning to the screen every few seconds. Well, Pretloe, Subject F5, was the cutest of the bunch, and if he'd found her in a singles bar, he might have offered her a drink and said hello and… let things develop. But she was doomed, too, as doomed as white, bred-for-the purpose lab rats. Those cute little pink-eyed creatures were used all over the world because they were genetically identical, and so test results in one country would match the test results generated anywhere else in the world. They probably didn't have the wherewithal to survive in the wild, and that was too bad. But their white color would work against them-cats and dogs would spot them far more easily, and that was not a good thing in the wild, was it? And they were an artificial species anyway, not part of Nature's plan, but a work of Man, and therefore unworthy of continuance. A pity they were cute, but that was a subjective, not objective, observation, and Killgore had long since learned to differentiate between the two. After all, Pretloe, F5, was cute, too, and his pity for her was a lingering atavistic attitude on his part, unworthy of a Project member. But that got him thinking as he watched Chip Smitton screw Anne Pretloe. This was the kind of thing Hitler might have done with Jews, saved a small number of them as human lab rats, maybe as crash-test dummies for auto-safety tests… So, did that make him a Nazi? Killgore thought. They were using F5 and M7 as such… but, no, they didn't discriminate on race or creed, or gender, did they? There were no politics involved, really-well, maybe, depending on how one defined the term, not in the way he defined the term. This was science, after all. The whole Project was about science and love of Nature. Project members included all races and categories of people, though not much in the way of religions, unless you considered love of Nature to be a religion… which in a way it was, the doctor told himself. Yes, surely it was.
What they were doing on his TV screen was natural, or nearly so-as it had been largely instigated by mood depressants-but the mechanics certainly were. So were their instincts, he to spread his seed as far as possible, and she to receive his seed-and his own, Killgore's mind went on, to be a predator, and through his depredations to decide which members of that species would live and which would not.
These two would not live, attractive as both were… like the lab rats with their cute white hair and cute pink eyes and twitching white whiskers. Well, none of them would be around much longer, would they? It was aesthetically troubling, but a valid choice in view of the future that they all beheld.

Declarative memory
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Declarative memory (sometimes referred to as explicit memory) is one of two types of long-term human memory. Declarative memory refers to memories that can be consciously recalled such as facts and verbal knowledge. While declarative memory is similar to explicit memory, declarative memory is memory that a person can state in words, while explicit memory is the deliberate [clarification needed] recall of information that the person recognizes as a memory. Declarative memory's counterpart is known as non-declarative or procedural memory, which refers to unconscious memories such as skills (e.g. learning to ride a bicycle). Declarative memory can be divided into two categories: episodic memory, which stores specific personal experiences, and semantic memory, which stores factual information.

They stuck a lot of needles in me when I was inpatient at the University of Washington Medical Center back in the summer of 2005. I remember one very dark night when I was in a mental haze from the drugs they were forcing on me (only because I went to the City of Kent Washington police department to report criminal activity directed at my personal property and which continues unabated to this very day) and I awoke in the dark in that hospital bed and a woman was glaring at me as she stuck another needle in hand. I thought about that later and I decided she was glaring at me because she was possibly expected me to club her with my fist, which I did not.

Gerald Ford
XXXVIII President of the United States: 1974 - 1977
129 - Exchange at a Meeting With Peter Bensinger, Drug Enforcement Administrator, on Drug Abuse.
February 23, 1976
I AM very sorry, Pete, I couldn't come over to the ceremonies,1 but I was there in spirit, if not in person. I might add, as June and Dick know, we felt we've got to move ahead even more rapidly and more effectively than we have in the past in trying to do something affirmatively about this problem of drugs.
1 The President was referring to the swearing-in ceremony for Mr. Bensinger as Administrator of the Drug Enforcement Administration, which took place that morning in the Great Hall at the Department of Justice.
This situation has gotten far more acute in many of our major metropolitan areas, the difficulties at the Mexican border and other sources. They are of great concern to me, and I think you've got a big job, but I know you can do it.
PETER BENSIGER. Mr. President, I appreciate your confidence. And the mandate that you have set forth through realistic levels of achievement, I think, would be tempered in part by the ability that we can cooperate with foreign governments and the effectiveness we can develop in relationships, both at the State, local, and Federal levels. But I was very encouraged with the people that I met since I have been in Washington from drug enforcement, and with the support I feel the American people have to stop this traffic, this illegal traffic of narcotics.
THE PRESIDENT. We do have a serious problem, as you indicated, at the Mexican border. We have other Latin American countries where the problem is to some extent just as acute. I have talked to the President of Mexico and the President of Columbia, in trying to get their cooperation, and they have fully agreed to do the maximum. So, if we can stop the flow and then handle the problem of domestic drug traffickers, which is a tough one, I think we can gradually eliminate many of the problems we have.
MR. BENSINGER. Mr. President, we will bend our efforts to make sure that foreign eradication of crops proceeds with priority and that we focus on key international importers of narcotics, too, and sharpen up those. I think that will eliminate some of the major importers and financiers. And I think that's what the Federal role should be focused on.
Note: The President spoke at 2:33 p.m. in the Oval Office at the White House.

268 - Statement by the President: Our National Recreation Resources.
September 25, 1958
RECREATION promotes health and health means strong people upon which the future of our nation depends. Our recreation resources are as much a part of our national resources as are our minerals, our fuels and our forests.
The increasing pressures of our rising population, our need for healthful exercise and recreation, necessarily call for an increase in our existing recreational facilities.
We must learn to plan effectively for the use of the recreation resources of our great outdoors. Boating, fishing, camping, hiking, skiing and hundreds of other recreational opportunities can and must be wisely developed so that present and future generations of Americans can more fully enjoy their own country.
The members of the Outdoor Recreation Resources Review Commission, under the chairmanship of Laurance Rockefeller, are competent, dedicated individuals who, in the past, have given unselfishly of their time to many of these purposes. I am confident that their new work will result in the advancement of the welfare of all of us.
Note: A brief statement by Mr. Rockefeller and a list of the 15 members of the Commission were released with the President's statement. The Commission was created by Public Law 85-470 (72 Stat. 238).

I was another flood, you see. I blamed myself. I blamed myself. But God made the man who made that choice. God made us all perfect. And in that thought, all my guilt flies away... Flies away, like a bird. I can give you that peace, Laura, that freedom. Pray with me. Pray with me.
Roslin: Okay.
Baltar: Thank you.
Roslin: Okay...
(She sits down to think, having nearly fainted during all that. She watches his blood drip down onto the floor, and makes her way back to him, tenderly removing the bandage from his abdomen.)
Baltar: What are you doing?
Roslin: Shh.
Baltar: What are you doing?
Roslin: It's all right. You're fine. Shh! You're fine.
Baltar: Don't do this to me. Don't do this to me, please.
(His blood pours out in a flood.)
