NEW YORK (AP) ? In Internet chats as breezy as they were bizarre, a police officer accused of plotting to kidnap and eat as many as 100 women was once cautioned not to be wasteful when cooking a victim because "there is nearly 75 pounds of food there."

But no one was ever actually harmed in Gilberto Valle's alleged plot, let alone eaten. And a defense attorney says the officer was merely engaging in harmless Internet fantasy.

Where exactly the line is drawn between bizarre talk and a true plot has emerged as the key question in a case that has shocked even the most jaded New Yorkers.

Indeed, experts say many people have a compulsion to create horrific scenarios about cannibalism, and that the Internet allows them to indulge in their dark side anonymously and ? usually ? safely.

"There is a big difference between discussing, and even fantasizing about this type of activity and actually carrying it out," said Jeffrey Parsons, a psychologist at Hunter College. "Not all the people who fantasize about it will go on to carry it out."

One website called "Devoured" ? devoted to a fetish called "vore"? is almost comical in its approach, saying it's "where everyone's on the menu."

The site defines "vore" as a sexual interest that "occurs from the idea of being eaten whole and alive, eating another alive, or watching this process."

A chat room named "Yum Chat" spells out strict rules for participation: "In-character taunting between predator and prey that's all in good fun as part a role play is just fine, but player to player attacks" aren't allowed.

The online banter attributed to Valle is not characteristic of a sexual disorder, but more indicative of some type of psychotic behavior or a personality disorder, Parsons said.

"Certainly, there are people who are going to sort of address a disorder or problem by letting it out, by venting," he said. "They think, 'If I can express, let it out in an email, or a chat, that's satisfying enough, I don't have to go out and engage in that behavior.'"

Police Commissioner Raymond Kelly declined to comment Friday on a criminal complaint filed in federal court in Manhattan that read like "Silence Of The Lambs" and earned Valle instant tabloid infamy.

The Daily News dubbed him "Finest Young Cannibal." The New York Post blared "Cook 'em Danno."

There also were reports of an odd disconnect between the horrendous allegations and Valle's softer side on social media.

In his profile on a dating site, he wrote that he considers himself "a true gentleman, and chivalry is huge with me. ... I'm on here simply because I haven't been able to find a girl who I want to spend some of my free time with."

Valle is a six-year NYPD veteran, a college grad and father of an infant child.

At a bail hearing on Thursday, defense attorney Julia Gatto argued that he never posed a threat. Charges of kidnapping with the intent to murder are overblown, she said.

Her client "at worst is someone who has sexual fantasies about people he knows and he talks about it on the Internet, but not act on it," she said. "Nothing has happened. We may be offended. ... But it's just talk, your honor."

But prosecutors won the argument to jail Valle by claiming his fantasies had morphed into a very real threat.

At the time of his arrest, Valle was on the verge of "kidnapping a woman, cooking her and actually eating her," said Assistant U.S. Attorney Hadassa Waxman.

The government cited evidence that Valle compiled a dossier on women he knew ? and hoped to turn into meals.

"How big is your oven?" an unidentified co-conspirator asked in a July chat about one alleged target.

"Big enough to fit one these girls if I folded their legs," Valle responded, according to the complaint.

Prosecutors accused Valle of running names of women on a police computers without permission to get more information on them, and of following two of them, once while on-duty. He also made a cellphone call from near the home of one woman, authorities said.

Some of Valle's alleged conduct raises red flags, Parsons said.

"This is somebody using a database to target potential victims," he said. "That means it's more serious."

US-funded battery maker files for bankruptcy

CNBC's Philj LeBeau reports the bankruptcy filing comes after the company was unable to make a $2.8 million interest payment.

By Deepa Seetharaman and Ayesha Rascoe , Reuters

A123 Systems, which had received a $249 million grant from the U.S. government, filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection on Tuesday, giving Republicans fresh ammunition to attack the Obama administration's subsidies for green energy.

The filing came after the lithium-ion battery maker's $465 million rescue deal with Chinese auto parts supplier Wanxiang Group collapsed, hobbled by "unanticipated and significant challenges," A123 said on its website.

---

A123 has agreed to sell its automotive operations, including two factories in Michigan, for $125 million to Johnson Controls Inc, a leading battery supplier and another recipient of federal green subsidies.

The bankruptcy filing comes as President Barack Obama and Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney prepare for their second debate Tuesday night.

The U.S. Department of Energy allotted about $90 billion for various clean-energy programs through the administration's stimulus package. Of that, at least $813 million went to energy companies that eventually filed for bankruptcy, including A123, Solyndra, Beacon, Abound Solar and EnerDel.

The Solyndra failure has been regularly cited in stump speeches leading up the Nov. 6 presidential election, including those of Romney, who argues that the government should not be in the business of picking corporate winners and losers.

The administration has countered criticism of its green energy initiative by saying such investments are needed to bolster the U.S. position in the market for fast-moving and competitive technology, such as advanced batteries.

"The riskiest strategy of all is not competing aggressively for the technologies of tomorrow and the jobs that come," Dan Leistikow, DOE director of public affairs, said in a blog post. "In an emerging industry, it's very common to see some firms consolidate with others as the industry grows and matures."

A123 had promised to create 38,000 U.S. jobs, including 5,900 at its own plants, in return for the government funding under the 2009 American Recovery and Reinvestment Act's Electric Drive Vehicle Battery and Component Manufacturing Initiative.

A123 has tapped $132 million of its 2009 grant, the DOE said. Johnson Controls, which supplies lithium-ion batteries to a number of vehicle manufacturers, also received a $299 million grant under the same program.

A123 supplies batteries to Fisker Automotive's Karma hybrid, which accounted for 26 percent of A123 revenue last year, and the Chevrolet Spark EV that will be introduced next year by General Motors Co.

"GM is aware of the situation with battery supplier A123," GM spokeswoman Kim Carpenter said. "We are monitoring the situation, but we expect no delays in the Spark EV program."

Johnson Controls supplies batteries to Ford Motor Co, BMW and Daimler, among others.

The bankruptcy filing comes after roughly eight months of attempts by A123 to find a buyer or strategic investor. In March 2012, A123 hired Lazard Freres & Co, which contacted 74 potential partners and investors, according to court documents.

Only 24 discussed the process with Lazard, but only Wanxiang offered to invest in A123 as a going concern. However, it became apparent that A123 would not be able to satisfy some of the conditions laid out in the Wanxiang deal before A123 ran out of money to pay for operations, documents show.

Johnson Controls has provided $72.5 million in debtor-in-possession financing to A123. Johnson Controls said its interest in A123 "is consistent with its long-term commitment to being a market leader in the advanced battery industry."

"This process is in its early stages, so the company cannot provide further details at this time," the company said.

In a research note, Morgan Stanley analyst Ravi Shankar said Johnson Controls would be able to wring out cost inefficiencies in A123 and possible bring the company to break-even quickly. The deal is expected to be dilutive in the first year.

"The transaction is about closing JCI's technology gap in advanced batteries," Shankar said, adding that the deal will help Johnson Controls compete for next-generation hybrid programs and cement its position in the market for start-stop batteries.

In court documents, A123 said it expects it will be able to sell its non-automotive operations and has identified certain bidders. A123 listed total assets of $459.8 million and liabilities of $376 million in its Chapter 11 petition.

In the first presidential debate, Romney attacked Obama's promotion of green technologies, saying the administration, in doling out billions to clean-energy companies, only picked losers.

"I mean, I had a friend who said 'You don't just pick the winners and losers, you pick the losers, all right?'" Romney said. "This is not the kind of policy you want to have if you want to get America energy secure."

The highest-profile recipient of federal funds, Solyndra, will square off in court on Wednesday against the Internal Revenue Service and the Department of Energy as it argues for its bankruptcy plan.

That plan provides $300 million-plus in tax breaks for Solyndra's venture capital backers while potentially leaving the government with zero return on its investment. Every class of creditor supports the plan except the government, which appears to have negotiated the lowest recovery of all the creditors.

The case is In re:A123 Systems Inc, U.S. Bankruptcy Court, District of Delaware, No:12-12859.

VINTAGE: Pinehurst Event Brings Cars, Soldiers Together

The inaugural Pinehurst Concours d?Elegance is starting to take shape.

The event takes place May 2-5, 2013, at the famed North Carolina resort, and already the pieces are coming together nicely.

A handsome prewar Lincoln gets a final polishing before the start of the Iron Mike Pre-Run Rally. (Photo: Tom Jensen) Last week, organizers successfully conducted the Iron Mike Rally Pre-Run from Pinehurst to Fort Bragg, a 35-mile road rally that featured 17 vintage and high-performance cars, including a special pair of mid-1960s Shelbys, a 1958 Studebaker Golden Hawk, two Ferraris and a pre-war V-12 Lincoln, among others.

?Everybody seemed to have a good time, and we did something unique and that was our goal,? said Pinehurst Concours founder and CEO Dean Kessel, who was formerly Sprint?s point man in NASCAR.

Kessel said to expect several key announcements about the event in the coming weeks. Included in those will be the identity of the chief judge for the Concours ? ?He?s got some amazing credentials and is very well-known in the space,? Kessel said ? as well as classes and featured marques for the shows.

The goal is to have 150 cars for the first show ? 15 classes with 10 cars each. ?That has the right feel to it,? said Kessel. ?Certainly, we want to be quality over quantity.?

A 1958 Studebaker Golden Hawk with its elegant tailfins took part in the rally. (Photo: Tom Jensen) The first event, the Iron Mike Pre-Run, came off without a hitch despite cold, dreary fall North Carolina weather.

The rally is named for the 16-foot-tall statue of Iron Mike, a World War II-era paratrooper, that stands near Fort Bragg headquarters as a symbol representing every generation of military paratroopers. Fort Bragg houses the U.S. Army Airborne and Special Operations Forces, with some 57,000 military personnel, 11,000 civilian employees and 23,000 family members on site.

The actual Iron Mike Rally is scheduled for May 3, 2013, one of several high-profile events tying together the Pinehurst Concours and the Fort Bragg military community.

Iron Mike Rally Rally participants will receive extra consideration as their vehicles undergo the judging process at the inaugural Pinehurst Concours d?Elegance, on May 5.

The idea is for car owners and soldiers to meet each other, and exchange stories and information about each other.

A special ?Soldier?s Choice? award will go to the vehicle earning the most votes from military guests.

Kessel is counting on the military support to help put his event on the map.

?There are three things that make this venue and this concours unique,? said Kessel. ?One is its location, North Carolina being a hub for motorsports in general and being a $6 billion industry. Secondly, you have an iconic brand and resort in Pinehurst that has global appeal. And third, you have the largest military installation in the country.?

?We are fortunate to have this opportunity provided for our soldiers and their families and look forward to being a part of the Iron Mike Rally,? said Tommy Bolton, civilian aide to the Secretary of the Army. ?There are many automotive enthusiast on the Ft. Bragg complex who will enjoy seeing the cars and meeting the entrants.?
