Do not let the victims of the attacks on New York and Washington, nor the brave members of our Nation's military who have given their lives to protect our freedom, die in vain!!
CAT I HURRICANE JEANNE ADVISORY #32
DISCUSSION
...JEANNE SOLUTION NOW SOLID...ACTUALLY TO THE LEFT OF NHC TRACK...JEANNE WILL WEAKEN BEFORE REACHING NORTH CAROLINA, HOWEVER...
JEANNE is exiting the anticyclonic loop it has been in for a couple of days. All major models agree on a westward motion and a curve to the north at VT forecast plus five days. NHC has to maintain continuity with previous forecasts, so they admit their track is quite probably insufficiently far enough west. JEANNE will be pulled up into a trough between a HP center to its east and west at VT forecast plus four days.
So we're back to where we were around a week ago--the primary threat appears to be to North Carolina's Crystal Coast and Outer Banks.
Intensity is another issue, however. Dry air appears to be reaching JEANNE from the south and is inhibiting development. There is also shear over the system, which appears to be subsiding. Model guidance suggests a modest increase in strength through VT forecast plus three days, and then a gradual weakening.

In the news...
And in a bizzare new twist to Rathergate, the purveyor of the memos to CBS, Mr. Bill Burkett, plans to sue the network for defamation of character and libel.
Turns out that CBS was supposed to protect the anonymity of Mr. Burkett and "expend both time and money authenticating" the memos they were provided.
Also, Tony Coelho, the former manager of Algore's successful attempt at becoming "the former next President of the United States," stated that the Algore campaign was also verbally given this information, but felt there was "nothing there" so they didn't pursue it.
Also, Mary Mapes, a producer at CBS News, passed the name of Bill Burkett on to the Kerry Campaign, it has been learned.
For AMERICA - The Right Way, I remain yours in the Cause, the Chairman.
LET'S ROLL!!!
The CBS News story just keeps getting better and better!
It is not a good morning.....Mom has just been rushed to the hospital....congestive heart failure.....and it looks like renal failure also. Dad is with her at the hospital and I'm getting ready to head over there myself.

Good morning everyone.
Prayers for those in need.
Dan Bartlett on Fox now doing a very good job for the President.
Timestamp is still set to CST on this machine. Adjust accordingly.
Ugh, Joe Biden on now. Mute, mute!!
Oh bless you, Jim, absolutely prayers attending for your mom.
God bless us all. Each, and every one.

Joe Biden is deplorable on FNC; the president just can't do anything right in his eyes. Why they keep having this plagarist on is beyond me.
...can't stomach it again this AM.
I'm watching it also. Joe Biden is an idiot. I just get so tired of his blathering.
Jerk!!
How is the clean up going in your area?
I just wanted to reach out and smack Ole Joe. Glad that interview is over.
Often times the two party caucuses will vote for whom they want to be their spokesperson. It is likely the Democrats in the Senate picked Biden to be their spokesperson.
There are two reasons that SEnators are chosen. For Issues ands situations they feel are popular the best advocate is chosen. For issues and situations that are felt to be losers, a senator with a very safe seat is chosen.
But Biden is ranking member on the Foreign Relations committee. That is likley why he has been chosen. He likely campaigned for the job Other Democratic senators were likely happy to have him be the spokesperson.
Good morning, IG.
Good morning folks. Biden was his usual dispicable self. Luckily I was watching the SwiftBoat ad on the internet and had muted the tv for most of his FNC screed.
Yes well, wonder how old Bill Burkett feels being hung out to dry! Somebody ought to point out to Bill that he needs to choose his friends more wisely. Laying down with dogs and all.
We will head further east today, plodding back to IL. I probably won't have my high speed wireless after this so freeping will again be more sporadic for the next several days.
Prayers for you and your mom, Jim.

Pardon my ignorance, but can someone simply 'splain the Oil-For-Food scam to me?
Safe travels.
