OMG what an amazingly smart & intelligent dog! He'll do you proud.
quick study. that baby is going to have a career with those instincts and already using tools and props. i would so love to watch the training. does anyone know if that's a possibility anywhere, to watch k9 training? i'm in nevada but i'd travel for it. i've trained mine, but they get so much more out of the dogs than i know how to. i just want to watch, not get in the way.
You little doll 🥰

Fernando De Jesus Lopez-Garcia, an illegal immigrant and felon, killed two people Sunday in San Jose. Lopez-Garcia stabbed five people at a church being used to feed and shelter homeless people. Two of the victims, a man and a women, died from the attack.
Lopez-Garcia has an extensive criminal history that includes domestic violence, disturbing the peace, giving false information to police, resisting arrest, and assault with a deadly weapon.
Due to California being a "Sanctuary State", ICE was denied a request to take custody of Lopez-Garcia after he was released from jail in Santa Clara County for a domestic assault charge earlier this year.
California Senate Bill 54, signed into law by former Governor Jerry Brown in 2017, prevented five victims from being safe from the threat this dangerous criminal posed. Now two innocent people are dead.
Lopez-Garcia faces two counts of murder, three counts of attempted murder, battery on a spouse or cohabitant and violation of a protective order. He was on on probation out of San Joaquin County for domestic violence and had an active warrant in Santa Clara County for failing to comply with the conditions of release at the time of the stabbing for failure to appear in court.
SB54 has proven very dangerous in regards to protecting the public and establishing rule of law. It is titled the "California Values Act."

This is a continuing saga of decent and caring people paying the price so the state can protect criminals. Extremely corrosive to the state. Prayers go out to families who lost loved ones.
The families should sue the state. Absolutely sickening and absurd
How many more law enforcement officers do we have to loose by laws passed to protect the bad guys and put them back on the streets?? The lawmakers who passed the bill need to be tried for these officers killings. 👮♂🇺🇸
I just don't understand why Californians keep voting for people who make the policies that let this awful incident happen.
What a terrible act of violence. Sanctuary areas are an excuse for the dregs of the earth to live in any way they want to, knowing they are "safe". The city of Carlisle, UK, has deemed itself a "safe sanctuary" now, this will be us soon.
Democrats make it possible, had my house broken in by an illegal when I lived in San Jose, the officer that came to my house told me that the POS dems, reduced the burglary unit in the department down to one officer!
And you wonder why decent, hard working, law abiding people are fleeing California by the masses! NEWSOME is a joke and he doesn't give two flips about California! California is just a stepping stone on his ladder of his agenda! He will cripple Calif and then move on, never looking back!
Get ready for more of this! California is the perfect place for criminals! Maybe we can pay him unemployment benefits while he is being taken care of in jail.
Decriminalization of certain laws, sanctuary state policies, zero bail release and now Newsom's piss-poor excuse of the COVID threat to release violent felons from prison have turned this state into a haven for scum who have no fear because there are no consequences.
Placer County Deputies thank you for reporting the truth! So much of the public is oblivious to what is going on. There is zero reason to allow criminal aliens to stay in this state, protected. The taxpayers, citizens, and legal immigrants deserve better than to be sitting victims when these crimes could be prevented.
Citizens are leaving California by the droves while the evil is welcomed and taking a foothold. Makes sense.
That is so sad for those innocent people just going to church. I agree, the families should sue the state. How dare they allow these dangerous people in our country. Gavin Newsom and other Dem governors are responsible!!!🤬🤬🤬
Prayers to the families and RIP to the victims. It's sad that we live in a world where the criminals seem to have more rights than the everyday working person; especially in California where the criminals are able to run free to commit their crimes get a slap on the wrist and set free, there isn't any consequences for their crimes. Sanctuary cities need to be eliminated and Law and Order needs to be restored as our President has been working so hard to do but have hit road blocks because of the inept Govenors like Neuscum. Gov Newscum needs to go as he himself is guilty of crimes against the people of the State of California. If we get rid of these evil criminial politicians our states can get back to running more efficiently.
Sanctuary cities and states should be outlawed. I hope the families of the victims sue the hell out of this pathetic state. We need to elect hardass politicians who will put law and order back where it belongs! 🤬
Too bad the good and decent people in any state, can't sue the state for wrongful death!
Our thoughts and prayers are with all the victims and their families
Why do we put up with illegals in this country? If they can't go through the same process our ancestors did they should be deported. This is why we have a border wall. Those of us living in the southern border states rejoice at seeing that wall. Sanctuary cities shouldn't be allowed because that encourages illegals to sneak in. We're fed up with it. God Bless our LEs that have to deal with it. 💙👮🙏🇺🇸
We I feel don't need more police what we need is mental health workers to work alongside them to help get this type of people off the streets my prayers out for the family
Sanctuary cities are not going away til Newsom, Pelosi, and Harris are replaced. You have to stop electing liberals in this State. Cities nor counties should be able to create safe zones when illegal murderers are not confined in safe zones. It's not like you can draw imaginary line and say to illegal criminals don't cross that boundary. The Whole state is put at risk for few radical softy cities isn't right.
People need to learn how to vote before next time this might be their family members affected by their crazy voting. ( commence hateful comments from hateful people -aka bots!)
Another example to recall Newsom and vote out any legislator that backed SB54!
Vote out all of these liberal idiots! Take back our state, get rid of our sanctuary state, let law enforcement do their job the way it should be done. Thank you to all law enforcement who go out and try to protect and serve even with their hands tied! We back the blue 💙
Beyond belief!!! Fuck Jerry Brown & Gavin NewSCUM for supporting and allowing this type of behavior!!!!!! Brown and NewSCUM are the cause of acts like this!!!! They should be in jail!
It will only get worse in the next 4 years with Biden as president.
There are so many Citizens we fail. All this post shows me is that as long as your legal it's okay for you to kill. The government has failed by systematically saying that a white person has a mental disorder when they do things like that. Everyone is evil and should t be here get it together people.
Heartfelt condolences to the families and friends of the 2 who lost their lives.
While businesses are being told to shut down, unemployment is at an all-time high and residents are STILL waiting for their unemployment check — reports this week found that California paid inmates up to $1 billion in fraudulent unemployment checks.
Prosecutors are calling this fiasco "the most significant fraud on taxpayer funds in California history" and for good reason. Audits show that millions have already been paid to "serial killers, rapists and child molesters."
However this audacious fraud came to be, you can't help but to bemuse the poetic justice of our state "finally" going too far in their endless coddling of criminals while ignoring their law-abiding citizens.
From early release, to allowing felons to vote, to asking law enforcement to enforce COVID rules while ignoring actual criminal laws — our state has increasingly been tipping the scales of justice in the favor of criminals over their residents for over a decade. This is a mess and cannot be ignored.
"SHARE" if you are tired of these continued epic failures from our leadership!

Newsom exists in his world only and we are the victims. He should be impeached immediately and shown the door out of CA and politics.
I guess that explains where the governor "allocated" a chunk of the CARES Act funds.
Part of that is the people processing the checks fault for not returning them. They know these inmates are not entitled to these benefits. Or why doesn't someone take the time to contact unemployment/social security to tell them said person(s) in custody.
The Libs are trying real hard to give felons the right to vote. This is just the first installment to pay for their votes.
What is wrong with the EDD?? First they make people wait for their checks when they desperately need the money and turn around and pay criminals in JAIL?? Something not quite right with this…. 😨😨
This is perfect example of a con. And the stupid marks who keep on voting for people who con them. Stockholm syndrome much?! 🤔
There needs to be serious consequences to this!
First place I'd look is inside the EDD. All those people who were hired to handle the overload of applications probably weren't vetted. Probably didn't take much to figure out how to manipulate the system to their advantage. How many employees were friends or relatives of prisoners? Either way, the money is gone.
Kinda seems like with the election fraud going around and California being called the minute 9 pm hit on election night? When place flipped red two days later? Seems like the state should be checked on its voting system- I've never seen so many trump signs and support it has to be a scam
This can happen but people don't believe voter fraud exists? Wake up people!
The Swamp. Trump tried to drain it.. Now they are trying to reinstall the lot of them. Makes me sick.
Here's the part I don't understand, there mail is checked coming in and there phone calls are monitored so how did they all miss it. I know inmates are manipulative and sneaky but they aren't that good and not getting caught, they are in prison
Why do some people
In this state continually vote for these people who have caused the most dramatic decline of California? It's mind-boggling to know that people are either unwilling or unable to understand what's happening.
What an embarrassment and people still waiting for their claims
Can this state be any more fudged up
Thank all of your friends and family who vote democrat for f*cking us over and over. Democrats are either incredibly stupid or deliberately & knowingly participate in criminal behavior. Check that, democrats are both.
This story is a classic example of what is wrong in our state. It is also a case in point as to why so many of us rightfully maintain that government claims of "totally safe" are ALWAYS to be taken with a healthy dose of skepticism. If 30 something other states in the union have protocols in place to avert just this kind of disaster, why has this state failed so miserably?
Totally unacceptable..he is over seeing these departments and look at this mess..
All inmate incoming mail is opened and read by the prison staff. Why didn't the prison staff catch and report this before it became an issue? In addition, direct funds deposited into an inmate's account are also tracked. Newsom can't control people not doing their jobs. EDD should be matching names to a prison list before issuing funds going to any/all addresses.
How in the hell did the cons do this and how in the hell did they get their money before the not incarcerated
California is being flushed down the shitter, and our Governor/ Dictator is using us as a stepping stone to the White House were he will destroy the Christian values that we hold deeply. And the sheep will be led to slaughter 🐑🐑🐑🐑🐑
Newsome is more concerned about shutting down outdoor dining now. Cause you know Covid particularly picks on people sitting outside eating a salad! What an idiot. Can't believe the people living there have not rioted to impeach this lunatic.
Just a disguised "Free Stuff" for their new voter base – convicted felons. I'm not convinced that this was unintentional.
Prisons are *designed* to not solve any problems.
If they're designed to keep the public safe, why ever release criminals?
If they're designed to rehabilitate, why is readmittance so high?
If they're designed to just punish criminals, why do they get out early for good behavior?
The only purpose they functionally serve is free/cheap labor for the state, which should not be the only reason to put people in prison.
So no matter what happens, prisons, at least in California, will be one of the many blemishes that makes California a shitty state to live in until massive reforms are made.
Unbelievable incompetence at EDD.
I'm sure he will be our next President…. Unfortunately.. Seems to be a trend.
CHP Officer Ornelas is 27 years old and in the hospital after being in a major injury accident on Monday night in Antelope Valley north of LA.

New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo, who ordered 800 parole violators and over 2,200 felons to be released early due to COVID, is now stating that law enforcement "doesn't have the right to pick laws that they think they will enforce" when it comes to holiday gatherings. The Governor is correlating the decision by local elected law enforcement leaders to not enforce with being like a"dictator."
Not only has early release of criminals due to COVID had TERRIBLE effects across the country, this Governor is now expecting his officers to act like his personal gestapos.
We will not treat Americans like CRIMINALS and we especially won't be taking feedback from someone who refuses to treat legitimate criminals like criminals.
Not on our watch.
"SHARE" if you support Sheriffs staying true to their Oath of Office and protecting their communities the best way they see fit.

I love this, and love reading your posts, especially when it seems the rest of California failed us. Thank you Placer County Deputies! We cannot let these dictators rule us. We live in the United States of America for Gods sake!
So self unaware : I can only imagine how this guy looks himself in a mirror and congratulates himself … ignoring the deaths he caused.
LE have enough on their plate, fighting real crime! He can spend his time knocking on doors if he wants to enforce his own rules…
Governors cannot make laws. His mandates are not laws and police officers enforce laws. What is so hard for these Governors to understand?
God bless you Placer County Deputies for working another holiday serving, protecting and upholding the constitution. All these wannabe Dictators who are hyper lenient on crime and criminals , who advocate defunding police, yet want the police to act as their personal Gestapo need to be removed from office Forthwith. Hope all of our Brothers and Sisters in law enforcement have a safe Thanksgiving 🙏
Thank you Placer County Deputies and all the other agencies that have stood up and said no. 💙
So thankful for Sheriff Bell and all of our PCSD deputies.
This man is pure evil he is dictator and traitor to the United States of America a wolf in sheep's clothing
What on earth is going on in PCD? sounds like you are all really up against it. Stay strong to your beliefs.x
Thank you for posting your position and protecting the people of your community while staying loyal to your oath.
Wow! Just Wow! This country is going to Hell in a hand basket! Unbelievable!
The Sheriff's are actually honoring the Constitution and we expect no less from them! Cuomo, now there's another story – a legend in his own mind and a tinpot dictator.
Pound Sand Governor. The Law is the U.S. Constitution, not Executive Orders that curtail Constitutional Liberties at the heart of our Republic. Freedom of Assembly, and Religion being among those fundamental liberties.
Felons the party is at the governor's mansion
Time for civil war inside states..overthrow the dictator governor's
So, using hizzoner's logic Nazi guards at concentration camps were just "enforcing laws they had no right to disobey?" Geez, has he ever heard of cognitive dissonance? Oh geez, did I just go straight to Godwin's law? Yes. Yes I did.
The "dictators" should lock him up along with Newsome.
Hypocrisy at its finest
Thank you Placer County Deputies. Love this.
Good for Placer County Deputies👍
This guy is a jackass. I never understood why the media keeps placing him on s pedestal, especially when he was late with responding to the Covid situation early in the year.
"Evil persists when good men do nothing" Freedom is our most cherished right.
Cuomo needs to look up the definition of dictator.
Worse excuse for a governor, next to ours in WA!
What an oxymoron a real pice of art 💩

Israeli government approval of nearly 4,000 new settlement houses imminent
Rhiannon F.
- October 12, 2017
Main News
] [
Settlement Expansion
] [
West Bank
Send by email:
srael is likely next week to approve 3,829 new housing units for the West Bank, including within Hebron. This would mark the first time in 15 years, since 2002, Israel will have approved a new construction in the city.
While the official numbers have not yet been published, according to a Channel 2 report quoted in Haaretz, the Israeli government is looking to approve 102 housing units in the Israeli settlement of Negohot in the south Hebron hills.
Elsewhere around the West Bank, Haaretz quoted "453 housing units in Givat Ze'ev, 54 in Har Brakha, 86 in Kokhav Ya'akov, 48 in Ma'ale Mikhmas, 158 in Kfar Etzion, 296 in Beit El, 206 in Tekoa, 129 in Avnei Hefetz and 120 in Nofim" to be built.
Youth Against Settlements (YAS) Director Issa Amro told Palestine Monitor, Israel is working to approve 30 housing units inside the city of Hebron. "This would affect the Palestinian identity of the old city of Hebron and strengthen apartheid," Amro said.
He believes the old city of Hebron is of strong Palestinian national heritage and ought to be protected. "By putting new housing in they will affect this structure and architecture," Amro continued.
The Hebron Municipality are waiting to see if the plans will pass next week. If the construction of new housing units is passed, Hebron Municipality Committee for Revistalising Hebron Director Emab Hamdan stated they will assess the details. "If we see it is illegal we will take it to the High Court," Hamdan told Palestine Monitor.
If the plans are passed, Amro sees it as a clear violation of international law. "You don't need to prove it, its very obvious," he said. Amro stresses the Palestinian Authority (PA) should take Israel directly to the International Criminal Court (ICC).
The problem is, "there is big pressure on the PA from Israel," Amro said. "Israel tells them that if they resist they will no longer exist. So the PA tries to keep its existence and does not resist the occupation, not even peacefully."
Hamdan believes any new plans to build inside Hebron will lead to more tension in the area and will make it harder to achieve peace. "It is not like any other place where settlements are independent, no, they are among Palestinian residents. This will increase tension and provoke violence," Hamdan said in a phone interview.
Amro sees the silence from the international community as breathing space for Israel to continue occupation. "The international community is not putting enough pressure on them to stop what they are doing. They can use this to their benefit, until the [world] wakes up," he said.

Here are a few other instances where a zoning system might be a great match: A level of your house is completely or partially under ground A home that has a top floor that is warmer than the lower floor(s) Rarely used rooms Rooms that are consistently stuffy An added room that is new since your heating and cooling system was installed High heating and cooling bills iHarmony® Zoning SystemControlling the comfort of separate rooms in your home has just found its match with the iHarmony® Zoning System.

Ray Rice continues to stand up against bullying by designing a T-shirt that will help raise money to fight the problem.
Rice has joined with PACER National Bullying Prevention Center and a shirt company called CustomInk for the Be Good to Each Other campaign, designing a tee with the message: "You can be a hero to someone just by being a friend -- Ray Rice."
Adult versions of the shirt cost $26 and all of the proceeds will go to PACER, an organization that aims to prevent bullying through education.
Rice has made it clear that bullying is an issue he takes personally. Not only has he spoken out about it and participated in programs, but after a student was shot at Perry Hall High School a few weeks ago, he took to social media and wrote a lengthy, from-the-heart plea to students to be kind to one another.
Rice designed his shirt for a promotion to mark National Bullying Prevention Month, which is October.
Other celebrities who made shirts include "Friday" singer Rebecca Black, Janel Parrish of "Pretty Little Liars," Olympic diver David Boudia and Katie Leclerc from "Switched at Birth."

Two arrested in car burglary case
Two people were arrested after a car burglary complaint this week.
According to the police report, on Wednesday at approximately 11:21 a.m., the Estherville Police Department received a complaint of a car burglary that had occurred in the Dollar General parking lot.
Upon arrival it was determined that a female had removed two bags of groceries from the victim's car while it was parked. The female then left the area in a white SUV with a male driver. Upon further investigation, police were able to obtain the license plate on the suspect's vehicle with the help of the victim.
Officers put out an attempt to locate the vehicle that had left the scene. Approximately 15 minutes later, an Emmet County deputy and Armstrong officer located an SUV matching the description of the suspect's vehicle at Casey's in Armstrong. Upon further investigation by Estherville police, it was determined that the two suspects in the vehicle were the individuals responsible for the burglary.
Clifta Laverne Sutton, 54, of Fairmont, Minn., was charged with burglary in the third degree. Also charged during the incident was Anthony Brian McCallister, 44, of Sapula, Okla. Sutton was charged with aiding and abetting burglary in the third degree. Both individuals were booked into the Emmet County Jail, where Sutton is being held on a $2,000 cash bond.
The Estherville Police Department was assisted in this matter by the Emmet County Sheriff's Department and the Armstrong Police Department. All suspects are presumed innocent until proven guilty in court.

I feel like the Grinch. Why? Because I'm massively disappointed in the product I'm reviewing this week, which makes two weeks in a row I've been "bah humbugging" (see last week's excoriation of an Internet thermostat).
The product in question this week, the Mi Casa Verde Vera 3, is a home automation system based on an operating system called MiOS that is aimed at the general premises automation market.
The Vera is a small box that you plug into your network to provide access and management of switches, sockets, plugs, sensors, and many other devices that can be interfaced to by Z-Wave, Insteon, IR, UPnP, TCP/IP and X10 networking systems.
ROUNDUP: 10 technologies that will change the world in the next 10 years
If you've not spent much time looking at these market standards for short-range networking, the variety of devices available is impressive. The old powerline X10 system is the most primitive of the lot offering a best effort, no acknowledgment, level of service while the other technologies provide features such as adaptive mesh networking and status reporting over powerline and or wireless connections.
The Vera aims to not only control devices on any of these network systems simultaneously but also provide complex programming support with plug-ins for data gathering, generating notifications, environmental data integration (weather, time of day and so on) and reporting.
The Vera is, in fact, a fairly sophisticated Linux platform running a version of MiOS which, it is claimed, can also support devices on ZigBee, PLC, serial, 6LoWPAN, BACnet and Wi-Fi Direct networks (these alternatives are not available with the Vera).
My problem with the Vera lies not in its hardware but rather its user interface and, more crucially, the metaphor or rather lack thereof used to configure and manage devices.
My first big problem with the Vera UI is that it's ugly. Really ugly. It uses several graphic styles with a passing nod toward a modern UI design but stops far short of actually being modern and polished. The "clunky feel" is highlighted by everything from the unnecessarily "techie" default names for devices (e.g. "_Dimmable Light") to numerous spelling mistakes and poor documentation.
My second big problem is that there's no obvious and easily understood metaphor for automating devices -- it took me the better part of an hour to figure out just how to switch on a light and have that event trigger switching off the light 10 seconds later ... it really shouldn't be that obscure.
Normal people would understand the idea of linking events (for example, sundown) or triggers (e.g., "hall light switch off") to devices, but instead Mi Casa Verde has created a labyrinthine system of "Scenes" (collections of grouped devices) that encompass "Triggers" and "Schedules" in a non-obvious way.
The Vera system supports a large number of plug-ins written by third parties (most are free) that can be added to the base system, but again, the method of adding them is unnecessarily laborious and the documentation for each one is, at best, poor (at worst it is nonexistent).
To do anything serious with Vera requires programming and here's where Mi Casa Verde goes out on a limb: Vera uses a proprietary programming system the company calls "Luup," which combines Lua (I discussed the Lua language last year) with Universal Plug and Play (UPnP).
While I'm sure that Luup has its good points it seems a pity that Mi Casa Verde hasn't embraced the huge trend toward using JavaScript or even Perl or PHP. From my scanning of the forums, the Luup language also has more than its fair share of problems.
Alas, I don't have space to slice and dice the Vera 3 in greater depth. The bottom line is that Vera 3 is very promising and, despite its current incarnation as a typical "engineers gone wild" product, it could easily be redesigned to do what users need as simply and elegantly as possible.
So, despite my somewhat harsh review, the potential of this system gets the Mi Casa Verde Vera 3, priced at $299, a Gearhead rating of 3 out of 5. If you're an end user, stay clear. If you're a geek, it's Christmas and Thanksgiving rolled into one.

Arkansas judge blocks state from using lethal drug
An Arkansas judge has blocked the state from using a lethal injection drug in its upcoming executions of six men after a company says the drug wasn't sold to be used for capital punishment.
Pulaski County Circuit Judge Wendell Griffen issued a temporary restraining order Friday preventing Arkansas from using its supply of vecuronium bromide in the executions. The executions have been scheduled to start Monday night.
McKesson, a medical supply company, has said the prison system bought the drug believing it would be used for medical purposes. The company has said it had been reassured the drug would be returned and even issued a refund, but it never was.
Griffen's order came the same day the state Supreme Court halted the execution of one of two men scheduled to die Monday night.

As one of the most common criminal threats, fraudulent scams are designed to trick you into handing over your money or personal information under the guise of legitimacy.
One of the best ways to combat online fraud is to be aware of how these scams operate. We've listed some of the most common scams, along with tips on how to avoid them.
You may also wish to explore our useful links to other fraud prevention and online security websites providing comprehensive guidance and advice.
Fraudsters may call you out of the blue claiming to be from a well known IT support company or software firm informing you that there is a problem with your computer that needs fixing, like a virus. The fraudster may already know your name and other personal information from public records such as the phone directory.
They may ask you for the username or password for your computer, or direct you to visit a website and install software that allows them access to your computer under the guise of helping you to fix the problem. This leaves your computer and personal information vulnerable to the following threats:
If you receive this kind of unsolicited phone call, simply hang up. Remember the following at all times:
If you are still unsure contact the firm they claim to represent, using their publicly listed contact details, to establish if the call is genuine.
Fraudsters are now taking advantage of the popularity of online shopping by targeting unsuspecting consumers in the following ways:
Fake websites
Set up to impersonate a genuine business or falsely pretending to be a legitimate business in order to obtain personal information and defraud visitors. These types of phishing attempts are often combined with emails sent out pretending to be from legitimate businesses.
Online auction scams
Sellers tricking victims into paying for counterfeit goods, or sometimes no goods at all, using legitimate auction sites.
Ticket scams
Websites offering popular, hard-to-get tickets for concerts and sporting events that are in fact counterfeit or do not exist.
There are some simple steps you can take before making purchases online to help reduce the risks:
Visit the government's Get Safe Online website for more detailed advice and for guidance on how to check a webpage is secure.
Visit our boiler room and share scams page for a more detailed guide to this threat and for advice on how to deal with it.
Also called a '419' scam, an advance fee fraud is when fraudsters ask you for an advance or upfront payment in return for promised goods, services, financial reward or employment that will never materialise.
You could be contacted by email, phone, fax or post with scammers often posing as members of genuine organisations and government agencies in order to create the illusion of legitimacy.
Fraudsters will often ask you for payment via Money Transfer as a preferred way of obtaining the funds as quickly as possible.
Different types of advance fee fraud include:
Share purchase scams
Following an offer to buy shares from you at inflated prices, a payment is requested to secure the deal. You will be told that this will be reimbursed if the deal does not go ahead, however once paid the share deal will not take place and your payment will not be returned.
Overpayment scams
A payment is made to the victim for goods or services using a fraudulent payment method (e.g. stolen credit card details). The payment is made for a higher amount than the actual value and the difference is reimbursed to the fraudster before the victim discovers that the initial payment is fraudulent.
Lottery or cash prize scams
A release fee is requested to claim a fictitious prize that will never arrive.
Online dating scams
After gaining the victim's trust over the internet, money is requested for a variety of emotive reasons.
Loan scams
Following the victim's reply to an advert for a fast loan, a fee is requested to cover the loan's insurance, set up the loan or cover the first month's repayment. The loan will never be received.
Inheritance scams
Legal fees are requested in order to split the inheritance of an unrelated individual who shares the victim's family name. The deceased individual and their inheritance will not exist.
Stay on your guard when approached by individuals in this way. Ask yourself the following:
Do not respond to the request and cease contact if you have any suspicion over the validity of the communication. Fraudsters will share or sell on your details to other fraudsters and you may be targeted again.
If the person who has contacted you claims to be from a legitimate company or other organisation then contact the firm using their publicly listed contact details to establish if the request is genuine. See our page on how to check if an email is genuine to learn more on verifying emails.
If you do send funds by money or wire transfer, make sure that it is to someone who you have met and trust.
Remember, if the promise seems too good to be true then it probably is!

Thunderstorm Brings Lightning – Gusty Winds – Soaking Rain to Western Montana [AUDIO]
Numerous spectacular lightning strikes in the South Hills area of Missoula were reported on Thursday evening, as a strong storm cell swept through the area, bringing with it strong, gusty winds and soaking rains in some locations.
Forecaster Trent Smith with the National Weather Service office in Missoula said Thursday at about 8:00 p.m. that the storm spanned a distance from Idaho to the Canadian border.
"The disturbance that ran through the flow actually caused a long line of thunderstorms that stretched all the way from the Canadian border to Lowell, Idaho," Smith said. "As that system tracked through Idaho into western Montana, it actually put down quite a bit of lightning. We're looking at just over 1,500 lightning strikes in the last 12 hours from this system."
Contrary to some of the dry thunderstorms the area has recently received, Smith said this system brought an appreciable amount of rain.
"Right along with that lightning, we actually did get some pretty decent wetting rains," Smith said. "We were getting some reports of up to a half an inch in some locations, that occurred in a very short time. We are receiving reports that the Lolo Creek Complex did receive over a tenth of an inch. We had a report in Sleeman Gulch of 22 hundredths of an inch of rain, but over in the Miller Creek area, we got a report of over 51 hundredths of an inch of precipitation."
Along with the good news of rain, the storm also brought with it damaging winds.
"These thunderstorms also produced a good bit of gusty winds," Smith said. "We got reports of 50 mile per hour winds near Missoula, up around Kalispell and Columbia Falls, with some tree damage and power outages here and there."
Fire Information Officer Dave Schmitt said Thursday night that the storm did bring some rain to the Lolo Creek Complex, but not enough to make a real difference in the firefighting efforts. He said the wind blew quite a few of the firefighter's tents around the camp during the storm. He said fire officials would be watching the fire perimeter closely through the night and into the morning to see if the lightning caused any new starts.

Joshua Wright headed to rehab rather than prison after meth sentencing
WAMPSVILLE -- Despite repeated bad behavior while behind bars since being arrested in August in a Lenox Avenue meth bust, Joshua Wright was sentenced to a 90-day drug treatment program instead of state prison.
The 29-year-old was one of three people arrested in the Aug. 20 for a meth lab at 406 Lenox Avenue. The trio -- Wright, Jessica Beilly and Joseph Arocho -- were charged with manufacturing meth, possession of precursors to meth and possession of a controlled substance after police found 16 ounces of liquid meth and 12 one-pot meth lab containers. The street value of the drugs seized from the apartment exceeded $45,000.
Wright pleaded guilty to third-degree unlawfully manufacturing meth, a class D felony, in Madison County Court on Wednesday. Because of a 2005 fourth-degree grand larceny felony conviction, his sentencing was more severe.
A four-year state prison sentence was exchanged for a 90-day treatment program at the Willard Drug Treatment Campus in Seneca County. If he successfully completes the program, he will serve the remainder of the four-year sentence on parole and then undergo two years of post-release supervision.
Admittance into the program requires the person to have a previous non-violent felony conviction and a documented history of criminal activity induced by the use of drugs.
As Wright's defense attorney Lawrence Brown and Judge Dennis McDermott debated whether or not his drug abuse directly caused his criminal tendencies, Brown said he has had alcohol and drug abuse problems his entire life.
Brown said Wright has told him that he's glad he was caught making and using meth because the drug would have killed him.
"He knows drugs have put him where he is," Brown said.
Chief Assistant District Attorney Bob Mascari requested that the offer to send Wright to Willard be withdrawn altogether, given his behavior in Madison County Jail since his arrest. Three separate incidents of bad behavior resulted in him being placed in "lock down," including citations for fighting with other inmates and jail staff and ripping his mattress apart and flushing pieces of it down the toilet, causing the room to flood. He and his girlfriend were also charged with promoting prison contraband after she attempted to smuggle in illicit drugs for him.
McDermott questioned his claim that drugs have led him to commit crimes, saying he was not under the influence while in jail and still managed to be disruptive.
"He's off the drugs and he's still doing this stuff," he said.
His attorney responded with allegations there are illegal drugs inside the jail that Wright had access to.
Wright had been using meth on a daily basis before being caught making it. He described himself as the "mastermind" behind the Lenox Avenue meth lab and admitted to police that after becoming addicted to the drug almost instantaneously, he looked up a recipe and directions on how to make it on the internet.
"What I did was wrong," Wright said. "I know that. It's time to grow up."
"If you've seen the light you haven't shown any evidence of it," McDermott said, referencing Wright's behavior behind bars.
His decision to make meth in his apartment not only put himself in danger, but others, McDermott said. Taking a "trial and error" approach to making the drug, Wright has said that there were frequent small explosions in the apartment as a result of combining such volatile chemicals.
McDermott said Willard will be perfect for Wright if he's sincere about getting better. He warned him that it won't be a "day at the beach."
The program is a combination of boot camp and intensive drug treatment with rigid structure and discipline. If Wright does not successfully complete the program he will be required to serve the remainder of his four year sentence in state prison.
Wright called Willard his shot at bettering his life and staying out of trouble.
One of his counterparts in the meth lab, Beilly, has already been sentenced to time served and five years of probation. She will receive treatment at Liberty Resource's Venture House. Arocho's case has not reached a plea agreement yet.

This story appears in the June 2011 issue of National Geographic magazine.
At dawn, three weeks before the winter solstice, the last tendrils of fog curled gray against the pinking sky over a sand dune on the eastern edge of the Namib Desert. A jackal trotted west toward a stand of camel thorn trees. An oryx cruised doggedly toward a water hole at a nearby tourist camp. A tenebrionid beetle scuttled shiny black on the red sand, leaving perfect beetle tracks in its wake. Next to me was Rudolph !Naibab,* a safari guide who grew up on recalcitrant earth in the Kunene region, roughly 300 miles north of this spot in the NamibRand Nature Reserve, raising sheep, goats, and donkeys on his grandmother's farm. (*The ! before Naibab is one of the notations for click sounds in the local languages.)
!Naibab is 30, but he has a much older man's acumen, something he attributes to being raised in the desert. "This land makes you consider life and death every day," he said. "And war. I was raised during war. That can also make you wise in a hurry."
Namibia's civil war started in 1966 and lasted 22 years. In 1990, when Namibia at last gained independence from South Africa, it was one of the first countries in the world to write protection of the environment into its constitution. It was as if Namibians recognized that having fought for the land beneath their feet, they were now profoundly responsible for it.
"I think there were many reasons that Namibia's ecomovement was born at independence," !Naibab said. "During the war, in the mid-1980s, there was also a drought, and farmers were getting desperate. Their sheep died, so they started to kill game. It was easy for Namibians to see how close to dying we can get unless we protect and respect the resources we have."
Until 20 or so years ago all this land, and the land next door, and the land beyond that, was fenced and stocked with sheep. I tried to imagine those sheep farmers with their backs to the wind, buried under oxide red sand, waiting years for rain. "Yes, I am sure those sheep farmers had mixed feelings about this place," !Naibab agreed. "On the one hand, no water. On the other hand, how can you not be in awe of this place? How could you not feel a responsibility to guard it?"
I had come to Namibia because in late 2008 the government had proclaimed 5.4 million acres of its southwest coastline as Sperrgebiet National Park. With this, officials could say that nearly half the country's landmass was given over to national parks, communal conservancies, and private wilderness reserves. With the creation of Dorob National Park in December 2010, the coastline from the Kunene River on the Angolan border to the Orange River on the South African border was an almost solid barrier of parks. All the pieces were in place for what may eventually be designated Namib-Skeleton Coast National Park—a single coastal megapark. Namibia seemed a rare, almost impossibly hopeful story of a young African democracy determined to be a leading example of land stewardship.
This optimism seemed well-founded on my second day in the country, when I arrived in the Kulala Wilderness, a 91,400-acre refuge adjacent to the NamibRand Nature Reserve. It was the very day of the scheduled release of two cheetahs by one of Namibia's most celebrated conservationists, Marlice van Vuuren, and her husband, Rudie. Raised among Bushmen in the Omaheke region of Namibia, Marlice can speak their language fluently, one of the few non-Bushmen able to do so. Now in her early 30s, she runs N/a'an Ku Sê, a game sanctuary 25 miles east of Windhoek, where with the help of Bushmen trackers she rehabilitates orphaned and injured wildlife, relocating the animals from areas where there is conflict with humans to areas where humans, in the form of tourists, are likely to pay good money to see them.
The repair and restocking of wild lands is not easy or free. "It takes a massive amount of planning and effort to reestablish balance in a habitat to the point you can bring cheetahs back," Marlice said. "Everything has to be in place. Is there sufficient prey? Is there water? Is this sustainable? If the answers to those questions are yes, that's half the battle. And then we just have to wait and see if the cheetahs like where we put them." The two cheetahs snarled and refused to get out of their trailer. The male bit Rudie on the foot. So we backed away and waited. An unremarkable shrub on the gravel plain moved and resolved into an ostrich. We waited some more. The wind did its best to blow right through us.
People who live in and near the Namib Desert speak of two winds: the east wind that blows in from the Kalahari, gaining strength as it loses altitude until it hits this desert at 60 miles an hour and raises temperatures to 100 degrees Fahrenheit or more. And the life-sustaining southwesterly wind from the cold Atlantic that blows fog as much as 40 miles inland, providing almost all the moisture needed to sustain the shape-shifting wildlife here. It is not an extravagant living, this fog-fed existence, for snakes and lizards, beetles and spiders, but it's an impressively specialized one.
It is also a fragile living, so much so that some Namibians I spoke to worried that the slightest shift of climate could send the whole delicate system into collapse. "It's hard not to imagine that a few degrees warmer would be catastrophic. This is a climate and an ecosystem already so extreme," said Conrad Brain, a wildlife veterinarian who had come to keep an eye on the cheetahs' release. Brain, who is also a pilot, flies frequently up and down the Namibian coast and keeps a careful, if somewhat anecdotal, eye on climate trends. "We've seen jellyfish swarms, shark swarms, leatherback turtles coming too far south—those are all indications to me that the sea is warming," he said. "It's easy to feel a bit alarmed. That's why this—releasing these cheetahs—gives you a feeling of possibility and hope." We stopped talking and went back to watching the trailer. Time did what it does in the desert: It expanded with the heat.
Just as I'd put my notebook away, the cheetahs suddenly left the trailer. First the female decanted onto the ground. Then the male poured after her. Within seconds they were gone from our sight, even if we were not gone from theirs.
The successful relocation of these two cheetahs represents a trend in Namibia. Wildlife numbers are increasing, especially in conservancies and private reserves beyond national park boundaries. In the 1980s there were at most 10,000 springbok in the north; now there are an estimated 160,000. By 1990 black rhinos had been hunted to the brink of extinction in Namibia; now there are more than 1,400. Twenty years ago some 800 cheetahs were shot every year by farmers; now approximately 150 are killed by ranchers and farmers, and trophy hunters are permitted to shoot 150.
To reach Sperrgebiet, I flew almost the entire extent of the Namib Desert at its broadest point (from the NamibRand Nature Reserve to Walvis Bay), and then a fairly decent chunk of its length (from Walvis Bay to Lüderitz). The journey to and through the park was at least as striking for the contradictions it exposed as for its demonstration of remote, wind-scoured beauty. Although the landscape manifested itself mostly as pure topography—dunes and the glittering quartz in Witberg mountain—the scars of human activity from a century ago were still evident: abandoned diamond camps holding out against the wind, sun, and sand. (Closer to Walvis Bay, the desert bore a new imprint—the mindless doodles of thousands of all-terrain vehicles, which had churned the fragile encrusted surface.)
For the most part Westerners had ignored Namibia and its forbiddingly arid conditions—"the land God made in anger," as some called it. But this did not exempt Namibia from the frenzied exploitation going on in the rest of Africa. The islands offshore (now proclaimed a marine sanctuary as part of the overall protection of the coast) were raked for nitrogen-rich guano, used in the manufacture of gunpowder and fertilizer, and the cold, nutrient-rich Atlantic waters were scoured for whales. By the early 1900s guano deposits tens of feet deep had been scraped to bare rock, and southern right whales had been hunted almost out of existence.
In 1908 the first diamond was spotted in the south. Within months the German government, which held South-West Africa—present-day Namibia—as a protectorate, designated the 5.4 million acres surrounding that discovery as the Sperrgebiet ("forbidden area"), accessible only to the diamond company and its miners. To overcome the shortage of workers created by the German colonists' cataclysmic war against southern peoples (the Herero, Nama, and Damara), laborers were conscripted from remote northern tribes (the Ovambo and Kavango) who had not been involved in the war. To this day, mounds resembling children's graves can be seen all across the Sperrgebiet, an inadvertent memorial to the labor of those men who crawled across the desert sifting the gravel and picking out diamonds stone by stone.
Diamond mining continues along the shore in the southern part of the new park, and from the air the excavations show up as massive trenches. Although the mining areas are strictly off-limits to unauthorized visitors, fear of illegal mining and thieving means that the whole of the Sperrgebiet still feels forbidden—not so much protected as jealously guarded. Only a few tourists may enter the park at a time, with a pre-approved guide, and roadside cameras monitor traffic entering and leaving the park. The prevailing atmosphere of paranoia is perhaps best illustrated by the rusting and sunbaked vehicles and equipment abandoned within the park when no longer useful—an attempt to prevent mine workers from stashing diamonds in machinery to be retrieved later in some junkyard.
Namibia is now the fourth largest exporter of nonfuel minerals in Africa and the world's fourth largest producer of uranium. That mineral wealth doesn't trickle down in any real sense—Namibia has one of the most unequal income distributions in the world—and the pursuit of it occurs not only on private land but also in and around areas that have been set aside as national parks. Two mines, one of which is within Namib-Naukluft Park, are now producing uranium; output is expected to rise from 12 million pounds of yellowcake to around 40 million pounds by 2015. It's a striking irony that to extract its plentiful uranium, Namibia must use quantities of a very scarce resource: water. Figures are not easy to come by, but one mine uses 106 million cubic feet of water a year. At the time of my visit the water was taken from aquifers—fossil water that is not adequately replenished by Namibia's scant rainfall—although a massive new desalination plant was being built on the coast near Swakopmund.
In theory, mining is supposed to occur in concert with resource protection and economic development. "We're a developing nation," explained Midori Paxton, who then worked for the Ministry of Environment and Tourism in Windhoek. "It's not realistic to exclude mining from our protected areas, but we work hard to minimize the impact of the mining," she said, showing me a map of biodiversity hot spots identified by the ministry. "We work closely with the mining companies to identify and protect these very sensitive areas." She indicated an area now in Dorob National Park that is one of the most important lichen fields in the country.
Lichen fields—blooms of orange and gray over red sand and crusts of blackish gypsum—keep the soil stable and are a critical source of food for invertebrates. They're the desert's building blocks for larger communities of plants and animals. In recognition of their vulnerability, the lichen fields have been marked off on maps and with fences. But the lichen field Paxton had pointed out on the map was between the sea and a uranium mine, and when I went there, it had recently been torn up. Prospecting trenches crossed the field not far from where the desalination plant was going up. Tracks from heavy trucks and four-by-fours tore deep into the ground, a carelessness that could take hundreds of years for the desert's slow systems to repair.
In the end it will be here, on the ancient surface of its protected lands—not in the tourist literature or official mining guidelines—that the strength and sincerity of Namibia's environmental intentions will be written.

There comes a time in the week when to reflect on what got into my reporter's notebook but didn't turn into Kotaku blog posts. Shall we?
New Professor Layton: I played Professor Layton and the Diabolical Box on Monday evening during those Nintendo demos I couldn't stop writing about in the middle of the week. But what can I write about a DS sequel that I played for all of four minutes? The mechanics were similar to those of the first Layton game. The art style was similar, the puzzles were of a familiar sort. I'm told there will be more animated scenes. But the Nintendo reps on hand wouldn't confirm or deny whether there will be puzzles involving filling the proper amount of fluid into a jug with the help of two other jugs.
iPhone Neglected: Oh, and on Monday Apple demoed the 3GS iPhone for me in a meeting that was so fancy that they had one Apple rep whose task was just to bring people up and down the elevator, to say nothing of three more hanging out to show the product. But they also sent Crecente one and put an Apple bigwig on the phone with him. Crecente's been doing a fine job so far on that, so I didn't post. Yet.
Shane Bettenhausen Chopped In Half: I played the new Samurai Showdown (actually this was two weeks ago, sorry) against former EGM editor-turned Ignition development man Shane Bettenhausen, but we all know I stink at fighting games. How can I judge the quality of this game in a preview? I can't just yet. Not when I was distracted by playing more Muramasa: The Demon Blade. And not when the only strategy I know is button-mashing. But I can confirm that I fought Shane in a level set at 5PM. I played as an old man and, true to Shane's word, the game has button combos that allow for sudden kills. The one I accidentally inputted sliced through Shane's guy's at the waist. One body became two halves with two limbs each. Shane squirmed. I won. I promise, I'll get better at covering these fighting games.
RE5 In 3D: On Tuesday night, I ran into Capcom marketing man Chris Kramer at a Microsoft event. He had special 3D glasses for me to put on so that I could see a demo of Resident Evil 5 PC running in 3D through Nvidia's Geforce 3D Vision. The tech requires a special monitor and graphics card. As it was programmed for the demo, there were lots of depth effects. That starter RE5 town we all played in demos had more space to it and ... distance. Nothing was programmed to jump out at me yet, though Kramer said that was possible. Maybe a knife might be thrown toward my face some day through the magic of RE5. But the effectiveness (in this case) or lack thereof is so hard to express in text. So I didn't do a post.
I think that's all that I didn't get to this week... other than the stuff I'm saving for next week. Have a good weekend, folks. Be nice to Owen and the Kotaku's Team Pacific.

Animation was a huge part of the G.I.Joe experience. Animation was used in all the G.I.Joe cartoon series and most of the commercials. In later years, the commercials used real people to portray the various characters.
In 2009, a live action movie was released to theaters. The popularity of G.I. Joe was as high as ever.
Here you will find information about the various cartoon series and films as well as the commercials that were used to market the toys, comics and cartoons.
Not only do they bring back a flood of nostalgic memories in front of the television set, but the commercials also provide a fascinating insight into how Hasbro changed, re-invented, and presented G.I.Joe in thirty-second television spots.
We do not have all the G.I.Joe commercials. If you have any that aren't listed in this commercial guide, PLEASE contact us.Thanks!

Pop star Justin Bieber has found himself at the centre of a new photo scandal after a picture of him appearing to grope a female fan's chest surfaced online on Tuesday.
The Baby hitmaker hosted a meet-and-greet with fans in Miami, Florida last week and during the event, he kissed one of his devotees on the cheek.
The young girl posted the snap on her Twitter.com page and it quickly went viral after keen-eyed bloggers spotted what looked like Bieber cupping the girl's breast.
The pretty brunette, named Jocelyn, has spoken out in a bid to silence reports about the 18 year old's alleged inappropriate and racy behaviour, insisting he was just the victim of a bad camera angle.
She tweets, "IM DYING HAHAHAHHAHA IT LOOKS LIKE JUSTIN'S TOUCHING MY BOOB IN THE PICTURE AHAHAHAHHA... Let me clear this up for people who can't read, NO I did NOT ask Justin to touch my boobs... I whispered that it was my 2nd time sneaking in & he kissed me on the cheek in the picture & it looks like his hand is there.
"People can think what they want but I know what really happened & Justin does too, so everyone else's opinions don't matter to me."
Bieber has yet to comment on the incident, but earlier this year he was caught in the centre of another controversy after he was photographed smoking what appeared to be marijuana in a California hotel room. He addressed the scandal in a post on Twitter, writing, "Everyday growing and learning. trying to be better. u get knocked down, u get up... i see all of u. i hear all of u. i never want to let any of you down. i love u. and... thank u... like i said... 2013... new challenges. new doubters... Im ready. We are ready. see u all tomorrow and everyday after that."

More U.S. Men Die From Cancer Than Women: Study
But disparity mirrors differences in incidence, not ability to fight disease, researchers say
TUESDAY, July 12, 2011 (HealthDay News) -- Men in the United States are much more likely than women to die of cancer, a new report from the U.S. National Cancer Institute found.
Gender differences in cancer incidence -- more men than women develop cancer in the first place -- rather than differences in cancer survival appeared to drive the findings, the researchers said.
"If we can identify modifiable causes of sex difference in cancer incidence and mortality then preventative actions could reduce the cancer burden in both men and women," said lead researcher Michael B. Cook, a National Cancer Institute epidemiologist.
Cook said that for many cancers, male and female incidence rates, and by extension death rates, have changed disproportionately over time.
This is likely because of differences in "carcinogenic exposures, metabolism and susceptibility," he said. Increased rates of smoking among men, and differences in infections, hormones and contact with toxic metals may all come into play, he said.
In terms of survival, however, the gender gap was minimal, the researchers found.
The study is published in the August issue of Cancer Epidemiology, Biomarkers & Prevention.
To look for gender differences in cancer deaths and survival rates, Cook's team used information from the NCI's Surveillance, Epidemiology and End Results database, which includes information on survival and deaths for 36 different cancers.
Lip cancer, for example, killed 5.51 men for every 1 woman. Larynx cancer claimed the lives of 5.37 men for every 1 woman; throat cancer, 4.47 men for each woman; and urinary bladder cancer, 3.36 men per 1 woman.
Examining cancers with the highest death rates overall, the researchers again found higher mortality among men than women. For example, lung and bronchus cancer killed 2.31 men for every 1 woman. Liver cancer killed 2.23 men for every woman; colon and rectum cancer took 1.42 males' lives for every woman; pancreatic cancer, 1.37 men for each woman; and leukemia, 1.75 men for every woman.
The research team found that gender was not a major factor in five-year survival when age, year of diagnosis and tumor stage were taken into account.
"But, for certain cancers we did observe slight sex differences in survival," Cook said, adding it is difficult to assign any root cause to that observation.
"This is not really a novel finding," said Rebecca Siegel, an epidemiologist at the American Cancer Society, commenting on the study. "We know that men have a higher risk of developing and dying from cancer for a variety of reasons, and some reasons which we don't fully understand," she added.
"The fact they didn't find large differences in survival is comforting," she said.
The death rates reflect different smoking and drinking patterns, Siegel pointed out. Also, cancers related to work exposures are more common among men, she noted.
Because smoking among women peaked in the 1970s and 1980s, Siegel said she expects to see the gender difference in cancer deaths start to narrow.
Men may get diagnosed later than women because they tend to see their doctors less often, and this could affect mortality rates, Siegel also suggested.
Future studies should explore the factors responsible for the disparity, the study authors said.

CARSON, Calif. — Thierry Henry and Landon Donovan canceled each other out with first-half goals as the LA Galaxy and New York Red Bulls tied 1-1 at a sold-out Home Depot Center on Saturday.
Henry, who was active and entertaining all night, scored his fourth goal of the season in the opening minutes, and Donovan headed home a David Beckham corner kick to equalize just before halftime. But a sliding save by Red Bulls centerback Tim Ream was perhaps the highlight of a match filled with highlight-reel moments.
The result means both sides remain atop their respective conferences. The draw broke the Red Bulls' three-game unbeaten streak.
The top-of-the-table clash took only minutes to live up to the hype. And the intensity of the bicoastal rivalry showed itself again and again.
In the 4th minute, Dane Richards took possession of a turnover by AJ De La Garza and raced towards the Galaxy's penalty area. The Jamaican winger curled a ball into the path of Henry, who eluded LA goalkeeper Donovan Ricketts and slipped his shot into the back of the net from a tight angle. It was the Frenchman's fourth goal in the last four games.
The Galaxy took control of the match, trying to counter quickly and nearly getting the equalizer on several occasions.
After a scramble in the area, Chad Barrett fired a shot on goal from near the penalty spot, but New York keeper Bouna Coundoul sprawled out and made the save inches on front of the goal line.
In the 26th minute, LA striker Juan Pablo Ángel appeared to have leveled terms against his old club when he buried a header into the back of the net. But the linesman's flag ruled him offside—replays indicated it was the correct call—and the goal was disallowed.
A minute later, Donovan fired a shot from 15 yards out but sent the ball wide of the goal.
Finally, the Galaxy broke through. Beckham's in-swinging corner kick was met by an unmarked Donovan, who buried it into the back of the net. After the goal, the US international celebrated with a few words for New York's Henry, who had clipped Donovan's legs earlier in the match.
But Donovan failed to put the hosts in the lead just minutes later. Streaking in alone behind the New York defense, Donovan rounded the on-rushing Coundoul and was presented with an open net. From the top of the penalty area Donovan pushed the ball toward the gaping goal, seemingly secure that the slow-rolling ball would cross the line.
However, Ream, making a straight recovery run, raced past Donovan, reached the ball, slid, and cleared it just before the ball crossed the goal line. Replays showed that the ball did not cross the line.
Neither side was able to break down their opponent in the second half. The Galaxy had more of the possession, and a Beckham free kick nearly put the Galaxy ahead midway through the second half. But again Coundoul was able to dive and make the save.
Moments later, Richards saw a shot carom off the the post, and as time was winding down, some lovely interplay between Henry and Dwayne De Rosario released the former Toronto midfielder on a 60-yard run down the left side. He cut into the area and forced a sprawling match-saving block from Ricketts.
It would prove to be the final chance of the match as the two rivals, who have played several high-scoring affairs in recent years, walked off the field with a point each.
The Galaxy next travel cross-country to face the Philadelphia Union on Wednesday. The Red Bulls return to action on Sunday, May 15, at home to Chivas USA.
Scoring Summary:
NY -- Thierry Henry 4 (Dane Richards 3) 4
LA -- Landon Donovan 4 (David Beckham 5) 41

After making the chocolate cheesecake I found that the white chocolate worked great in the cake and as chips but I wanted more…. I wanted a white chocolate so great that it could be scoffed all by itself. After a failed attempt (too much coconut just doesn't taste chocolaty), another fail (not creamy enough) and one nearly-there (good, but missing the awesome factor), I now have created a recipe that I almost didn't get to photograph as it was disappearing too fast.
50 grams of cocoa butter
2 tbsp dextrose
Seeds from 1/2 vanilla bean pod
1/8 tsp vanilla essence
1 tsp almond butter (homemade or shop bought – but look for a 100% nuts one, no additives)
1/2 tsp rice flour (I used brown rice flour, you can also use normal riec flour or rice milk powder)
Measure out the cocoa butter, chop into smaller pieces (the smaller, the faster it melts) and melt over a water bath (meanwhile, make the almond butter if you need to). You can also do this in the microwave for a few minutes (it takes a lot longer than butter) but I feel more in control when I can look at it and stir when needed.
While the cocoa butter is melting you can de-seed the vanilla pod (split open lengthwise and scrape out the seeds with a butter knife or spoon).
Now add the dextrose and stir until dissolved. Take the bowl off the heat.
Add in the rice flour and vanilla seeds. Stir. Add vanilla essence. Stir. Add the almond butter. Stir.
The mixture will look a little bit lumpy due to the almond butter which is fine (depends on how finely chopped and processed it is). Now, pour it into a container (chocolate shaped, bars, cheesecake, whichever shape, thickness or format you want – you can also pour it in a small bowl and wait for it to cool a bit in the fridge until it has the consistency of toothpaste and then pipe it on a baking sheet to shape chips). I made this batch one thin flat bar, to chop up and eat as is. Keep in the fridge or freezer.
If you would like to see more recipes like this you can always follow me here (via email, see top right on this page) or on Facebook.

Dylan Ratigan Grills Rep. Ed Perlmutter about proposed new banking and derivatives rules...
Dylan is rightly pointing out the loopholes in the legislation under discussion, but he fails to point out that those loopholes exist because the legislation was written by the central banks. This is the condition of the United States. Politicians cannot get elected without their money and thus true and JUST reform will not happen until the people make it happen (ht czar Point).
