Who will be the King of Riva
this has perplexed me for a while. Since Garion is a sorcerrywouldn't he have a expanded life like the other disciples of Aldur. If that was the case would he just step down from the throne so that Geran can take the crown/

Re: Who will be the King of Riva
Geran could well be as long lived as his father. Dryads have longer lifespans than humans so there may not need to be any changes to the Throne for a long time.
In time, Garion could probably step down and possibly become a disciple of Aldur (if required)

Re: Who will be the King of Riva
belgarion i belive would step down when geran is old enough to become king. belgarion is immortal, however unless his son is a socerer he is not. the question of dryad hertiage doesn't come into question as he is a male. the dryad hertiage only breeds true in the females. so belgarion, ce'nedra and all of the daughters will watch geran die as a "normal" person.

Re: Who will be the King of Riva
I believe that Belgarion will step down when his son is old enough to be king. I think he'll go to the Vale of Aldur and possibly become a disciple. I think he would make a good scholar. He never did seem too keen on being king.

Re: Who will be the King of Riva
Belgarath always said,"We all live as long as we need to," I've always taken that to mean that Garion would be long-lived but mortal. Certainly he Rivan line were not immortal.

Re: Who will be the King of Riva
That's pretty much the way I looked on it, too. Also, presumably if something were to happen to Geran, perhaps the Prophecy would have warned Garion before it left, or even set other means in motion to prevent any further upheaval regarding the Orb? (That said, I must re-read the books again)

Re: Who will be the King of Riva
Sorcerers are unmortal beings. They live as long as they live until they are killed or will themselves out of existence. There is no evidence of a disciple of either Aldur or Torak actually 'dying'. Ctuchik destroys himself, Urvon is in Hell a play thing for the King there, Zedar is imprisoned alive, in solid rock for eternity. Belmakor and Belsambar willed themselves out of existence. No actual dying.
With this evidendce, i'd imagine Belgarion abdicating when he felt Geran was ready to be king and going off to the Vale to live until he no longer needs to. Ce'Nedra's lifespan is far more finite. Queen Xantha is a good example of age limit for a dryad, her tree is approaching 2000 if i recall correctly, and that seems to me the very upper limit of an Oak tree's life. Ce'Nedra was far more dryad than most of her ancestors among the Borunes. hence prophecy's warning to Belgarion to be prepared for lots of daughters.

Re: Who will be the King of Riva
Sorcerers live for as long as they need to. They aren't going to be immortal if they have already accomplished their role in the prophecy. In regards to who rules, you could say that each king will rule until the purpose that governs everything deems the prince ready to rule. Obviously it is a matter of the purpose if the prince is ready, because the prince has to guard the Orb.

Re: Who will be the King of Riva
the purposes aren't finished, the purposes just come back together to form the original purpose that split up when The Accident happened
the sardion and the orb were part of the star that started the accident (the accident being that galaxy that blew up) and seperated at the same time as the purposes
when the choice was made the sardion and zandramas went to patch up the hole that the galaxy left when it exploded
the orb stays because it eriond was chosen so all those who were on the side of the Light remain
since the orb is still here the guardians are still needed because there are people who still want the orb for their own uses and can easily find ways around the no touching rule
if the wrong person gets it, whats to stop him from creating another Accident and ripping the universe again

Re: Who will be the King of Riva
Actually the Orb is there to protect the West. I guess now that the world is in peace they wont need the Orb...but that doesnt mean that there is no one whos evil enough to disrupt the peace of the world..thats why the Orb is still there..so it can restore order both the universe and the world.

Memphis police officer dies from heat
I know the name but will not release it this time until the news media knows it. In fact I knew this morning but didn't say anything until the media was told.
We lost an officer over night due to the excessive heat. He got sick from heat stroke yesterday so they sent him home, and at home he had a heart attack that is being described as complications arrising from the heat stroke he had on duty.
Im hoping for his families sake that the ME's description will mean it will count as a line of duty death as it happened on duty.
Right now our uniforms are dark blue, long dark blue pants, shorts are not an option, vest must be worn at all times on duty, and are worn under our uniform shirt so unlike some agencies we can't take ours off during our shift for a few minutes. Officers with tattoos on their arms are required to wear long sleeve uniforms so many of us are wearing long sleeves in this heat.
Be careful out there. And drink a lot of water and Gatorade even If you don't think you need to. Wear sunscreen. Try and stay cool and out of the sun. And pray for Memphis as it mourns another senseless loss of our brotherhood.
Also I will mention on the same day we lost a city sanitation worker also for medical complications due to heat. We are ready for winter. Bring on the snow.

That's terrible! That definitely sounds like a line of duty death. Rest in peace.
(WMC-TV) - Investigators said 48-year-old Memphis police officer Anthony Rahming died after being exposed to the severe temperatures.
Rahming joined the force last year. Memphis Police Director Toney Armstrong said Thursday it appeared the heat was a contributing factor in his death.
"At this point, we think he was a contributing factor in that he went home sick," said Armstrong. "Sometime during the night, his condition worsened while being transported to the hospital where he passed."
Rahming was working a deadly crash scene around 7:00 p.m. Wednesday night at I-240 northbound near South Parkway. The officer said he did not feel well and went home.
"We want to express our sorrow to the family of the officer," said Memphis Mayor A C Wharton.
Mike Williams with the Memphis Police Association said heat is a fact of life for police officers, who are in the heat wearing protective gear and dark uniforms.
"You can't expect officers not to be out there, because their job is to be out there and protect the public and also to insure the safety of the public," said Williams. "We accept that."
Armstrong said that while officers might not be able to avoid the heat, he does want them to be cautious.
"We are advising our officers to take extreme precautions," said Armstrong.
The officer worked out of the Airways station. He worked an afternoon/evening shift.

News media is errantly reporting that his death was not a result of heat. No one told the media that because all the evidence points to heat, so they seem to be making it up as they go along. Chief said he doesn't know why they said that because nothing has been released to the news yet and the autopsy results weren't in. Chief is saying the admin and the coroners office all believe heat was the factor.
He had stood in the middle ofthe interstate directing traffic for a little over three hours in the sun in 116° heat index, without the benefit of water or relief. When he was relieved he felt sick, everyone thought it was the heat then and wanted him to get the fire department to check him out, but he told everyone he hadn't eaten since breakfast and that was all it was. He didn't want medics to check him out so they let him go home and he died shortly after getting home.

After dispatching Winchester High, 56-38, on Tuesday night, Jan. 8 for its seventh win (against a single loss) of the season, Belmont High School Girls' Hoopsters are looking forward to matching up at the end of the week with the best of the best.
Head Coach Melissa Hart's team will head up Route 128 for a Friday night battle royal with undefeated Reading High School. That would be a Rocket team unbeaten since December ... of 2011.
Ranked number 2 in Eastern Massachusetts by the Boston Globe, the defending Div. 2 state champions (which went 25-0 last year) is led by senior superstar Olivia Healy, which ESPN Boston calls the best female basketball player in the state.
The 5'10" forward, who has already committed to play Division 1 basketball next year at the University of Richmond, scored 27 points and grabbed 10 rebounds to lead the Rockets past previously undefeated Lexington, 72-64, on Tuesday.
If Healy wasn't enough for the Marauders to handle, she is assisted by senior guard Morgan O'Brien who is heading to Assumption College next year.
"Every player will need to be on their game; no one can come with an off-game because Reading won't be giving us an opening," said Hart.
But before they could think about its first big test of the year, the Marauders welcomed the Sachems to the Wenner Field House and put out a workman's-like effort to come off the court with the win.
Belmont never trailed in the game in which its defense kept Winchester's leading player, senior guard Elise Testa, from becoming a factor as the Marauders dominated the boards, taking down 18 offensive and 17 defensive rebounds with senior co-captain forward Olivia Lyons grabbing 13 of the team's 35.
Belmont was consistent all night, scoring 13, 14, 15 and 14 points per quarter increasing its lead after each 8 minute period; 7 at the first, 10 at the half and 15 by the end of the third.
"I was hoping that we could have moved ahead by more so I could play some of the bench players but (Winchester Head Coach Jason Cacciapuoti) was smart how to attack us," said Hart.
For the second consecutive game, the Marauders spread the scoring around as nine players got on the scoreboard with senior co-captain guard Katie Leinbach leading the way with 15 points to go with her five assists, two steals and six rebounds.
Lyons scored 11 points hitting half her eight shots and making three-of-four free throws, giving her a sixth double-double in eight games.
Hart noted that senior co-captain Amari Bradshaw (6 pts) and junior guard Ashleigh Chinn (6 pts) hit three baskets from jumpers outside the paint while sophomore pair center Linda Herlihy (6 pts) and forward Elena Bragg (who plays and looks like teammate Lyons) had strong games under the basket.
"Herlihy is become a force out there. She's really coming along," said Hart.
While acknowledging the task before her team on Friday's visit to Reading, Hart believes that the team has a good chance to stay in the game for the entire 32 minutes.
"They're an athletic team and will press us so we need to be prepared," said Hart, saying that Reading is not a "huge" team but have good players in the 5'8" range.
"We have to be smart and take care of the ball and limit what Healy does," said Hart.

Nutella in Chocolate Croissants [Split from Los Angeles Area board]
I don't think I've ever had one in the US with Nutella in it.
re: Das Ubergeek
re: Diana
re: Diana
re: vlad
When my husband, who is a mix of cherokee, scandanavian, and brit (why ehtnicity counts here I dunno) was in France for several months as a teen, he encountered many chocolate croissants filled with nutella. This is why he is weary of getting me chocolate croissants..
Why, this is on our very own Chowhound:
But I'm glad that there are chocolate croissants out there that are safe for me. I have to be careful with the Crepes. Me, I've never been to France, and have only eaten the pain au chocolat at Breadbar.
re: Diana
re: budlit
budlit, go back and reread the post you responded to more carefully.
The reason I thought that was that my husband informed me many of the ones he had in France had nutells. I suppose he figured they mostly did, as many US "chocolate crepes" also use nutella (as in france) He is very good about protecting me fron nuts, to which I am allergic.
The one I had at breadbar had no nutella, they told me. But I have been hesitant to eat others, due to what my husband says, andhe is hesitant to let me.
It helps to read carefully.
I'm glad to be wrong on this point, though! Still, I imagine it would be safest to ask the baker each time!
The chowhound "recipe" uses nutella, and that enforced my belief.
re: Diana
Uhm, Diana, that is clearly not pain au chocolat. While that certainly looks tasty, that is simply a crossiant cut open with nutella smeared into it.
While I am no expert on things French, my guess is they would call a croissant with nutella, 'pain au nutella'. Like here:
re: vlad
well, yeah. The chowhound recipes ain't always spot ont. It does say "easy". Making croissants from scratch is a longer, more difficult process.
But you see, having headr my husband say they have nutella, and seeing nutella in this recipe led me to believe that my husband was right, and nutella was the norm. I mean, chowhound recipe folk COULD have smeared on a decadent chocolate fudge sauce from the jar, too. But they used nutella.
Geez, gang. Is it obvious now how I came to the conclusion?
The wolves love to leap on a downed deer, eh? :)
I have a deadly nut allergy, I gotta be careful

Tommy Smith of Wallace Morgan, a New York based outsourced sales and marketing firm, accepted the Top Sales Award 13/14 in Philadelphia this weekend at the 2014 USA Sales Awards.
Manhattan, New York (PRWEB) July 03, 2014
This weekend the Kimmel Centre in Philadelphia hosted the USA Sales awards to a packed audience of 2500 attendees within the sales and marketing industry. The annual event stands to recognize the achievements and hard work of those within the industry, and marketing firm Wallace Morgan were thrilled to accept one of the top three awards of the event. Managing director Tommy Smith also picked up the award for performance excellence, rounding off a great day for the relatively new marketing company.
Wallace Morgan has seen steady growth since their establishment at the start of 2014, seeing an ever increasing demand for their direct marketing expertise. The firm has helped their clients increase their sales by 40% in the first quarter and with the company's quality over quantity mantra, its no surprise that clients are frequently in demand of their services. With an impressive turnover to date of $1.8million, and an expected turnover of over $2million by the end of the year the firm have successfully beaten the odds in a struggling economy and achieved where many recent start-ups have failed. The firm recently revealed exciting plans to expand and with their new office in New Jersey in the pipeline, Wallace Morgan are looking forward to a busy and rewarding future.
The recipients of the USA Sales awards are decided based on surveyed industry professionals, who provide their assessment of over 65 outsourced sales businesses. The award accepted by Tommy Smith is particularly important due to the fact it is one of the only awards based on actual results, rather than the opinions of the industry.
The Awards were held in Verizon Hall, part of the Kimmel Centre of Performing Arts in Philadelphia. The Verizon hall is the centres main performance auditorium and with 2500 seats, it is a specially designed venue for prestigious events and musical performances. After the awards, the Kimmel Centre hosted a 2 hour reception for all attendees which acted as a fantastic networking opportunity and a great way to round off such a successful event.

The Associated Press
BEAVER FALLS, Pa. — Gravy was still warm. Dallas Cowboys were still in uniform. Thanks were still being given across the country as the pilgrimages to the stores began, heralding a new era of American consumerism.
Lured by earlier-than-ever Black Friday sales, people left Grandma and Grandpa in search of Samsung and Toshiba. They did not go blindly: In dozens of interviews, people acknowledged how spending has become inseparable from the holidays. Older folks pined for the days of Erector Sets and Thumbelinas while in line to pay iPad prices. Even some younger shoppers said it felt wrong to be spending money instead of quality time on Thanksgiving.
"But we're still out here," said Kelly Jackson, a paralegal who was standing inside a Best Buy store in the Pittsburgh suburbs, a 32-inch television ($189) in her cart. It was a consolation prize: Despite four hours on line, she missed the cheaper 40-inchers ($179) that she had heard about while listening to Internet radio.
Jackson's resignation was common among those who flocked to capitalism's temples for the consumer equivalent of genuflecting. Many said that this Black Friday bled into Thursday crossed a line, that merchants should not intrude like this. Christmas is about the message of Jesus, the feeling went — not about the gold, frankincense and myrrh.
Yet amid these protests, people still talked about feeling powerless beneath the moment — as if they had no choice but to shop.
"You have to have these things to enjoy your children and your family," said Jackson's friend Ebony Jones, who had secured two laptops ($187.99 each) for her 7- and 11-year-olds.
Why must we buy? To demonstrate our love for others? To add a few more inches to our televisions? To help America recover from a vicious recession that itself was born of the desire for more?
Such questions make Jones wince. "It shouldn't be that way, but in a sense there's no way around it," said Jones, a nurse. "Everything ends up with a dollar amount. Even your happiness."
Retailers have long capitalized on the holiday season's perfect storm of emotion and tradition. "We all want to be loved, we all like to give love," says Roger Beahme, director of the Center for Retail Innovation at the Wake Forest Schools of Business. Through a flood of advertising on TV, radio and newspapers, he says, retailers can create emotions.
"Will Rogers said it's the art of convincing people to spend money they don't have on something they don't need," Beahme says. Although advertising can serve useful purposes, he says, "there's some truth to that."
Many embrace the feeling — and have, in accelerating ways, for a generation and more. Without legions of believers, Black Friday never would have gotten this bold. Despite a surge of resistance as the sales drew near, with scolding editorials and protests by retail employees and reminders of frantic tramplings past, Black Friday's grip on America may have been proven stronger than ever this year.
"It's all part of the holiday — part of the tradition," said Dennis River, a truck driver who was in line for a television at the Walmart in Beaver Falls, a small community outside of Pittsburgh. Last year, he went out alone at midnight Thursday. This year, he brought his wife and daughter. They were in place by 7 p.m.
"You get up in the morning, cook, do your dinner and your football, then you go shopping," River said. "It's the new thing now. Everyone's afraid of change."
"If they wanna have sales today," he said, "I'm gonna go shopping today."
Walmart's cavernous store is always open, but the deals began at 8 p.m. As with most big retail stores, a police car was parked near the Beaver Falls store entrance. A uniformed officer was at the door, near a stand holding maps to "featured products" such as bikes, cookware, sheets, video game consoles, and eight different TVs.
The witching hour approached. Yellow CAUTION tape cordoned off the bargains and funneled a few thousand supplicants through aisles of ignored items — yarn, shower curtains, party hats, clocks. Balloons printed with dollar signs followed by low numbers floated above the treasures.
As the cell phones struck eight, a din arose. Excited voices mixed with the sound of boxes dropping into metal shopping carts. The balloons danced as people dug into stacks of leather ottomans ($29) and 5-by-5 foot bins of $5 DVDs.
The temperature climbed. An old man inched through the throng using a folding chair ($11.88) as a crutch. Traffic jammed. Complaints and a few curses echoed.
"I wouldn't say Black Friday has taken over," said Dave Davies, a music producer who was part of the national parade of TVs (his was 50 inches and $399). "Shopping IS the holiday. That's all people care about — what are you gonna get?"

|saint (seɪnt, (unstressed) sənt)
|a person who after death is formally recognized by a Christian Church, esp the Roman Catholic Church, as having attained, through holy deeds or behaviour, a specially exalted place in heaven and the right to veneration
|a person of exceptional holiness or goodness
|(plural) Bible the collective body of those who are righteous in God's sight
|(tr) to canonize; recognize formally as a saint
|[C12: from Old French, from Latin sanctus holy, from sancīre to hallow]
"Saint - A dead sinner revised and edited. The Duchess of Orleans relates that the irreverent old calumniator, Marshal Villeroi, who in his youth had known St. Francis de Sales, said, on hearing him called saint: 'I am delighted to hear that Monsieur de Sales is a saint. He was fond of saying indelicate things, and used to cheat at cards. In other respects he was a perfect gentleman, though a fool.' " [Ambrose Bierce, "Devil's Dictionary," 1911]Meaning "person of extraordinary holiness" is recorded from 1563. The verb meaning "to enroll (someone) among the saints" is attested from late 14c. Applied widely to living things, diseases, objects and phenomena, e.g. Saint Bernard, the breed of mastiff dogs (1839), so called because they were used by the monks of the hospice of the pass of St. Bernard (between Italy and Switzerland) to rescue snowbound travelers; St. Elmo's Fire "corposant" (1560s) is from It. fuoco di Sant'Elmo, named for the patron saint of Mediterranean sailors, a corruption of the name of St. Erasmus, an Italian bishop martyred in 303.
In Christianity, a holy person, living or dead; a person who has been saved (see salvation). Saint is the French word for "holy." Many churches reserve the title of saint for persons who have died faithful to their Christian commitment. The Roman Catholic Church and the Eastern Orthodox Church require certain procedures before people can be officially named saints; this procedure is called canonization.
one separated from the world and consecrated to God; one holy by profession and by covenant; a believer in Christ (Ps. 16:3; Rom. 1:7; 8:27; Phil. 1:1; Heb. 6:10). The "saints" spoken of in Jude 1:14 are probably not the disciples of Christ, but the "innumerable company of angels" (Heb. 12:22; Ps. 68:17), with reference to Deut. 33:2. This word is also used of the holy dead (Matt. 27:52; Rev. 18:24). It was not used as a distinctive title of the apostles and evangelists and of a "spiritual nobility" till the fourth century. In that sense it is not a scriptural title.

The NHL has suspended Penguins forward James Neal five games for his knee to the head of Brad Marchand during Saturday's stupid play-filled game between Pittsburgh and Boston.
With Marchand on the ice, Neal saw him and skated right through, kneeing the Boston forward in the process. Neal earned a phone hearing with Brendan Shanahan, and the NHL disciplinarian handed out the five-game ban today. It will cost Neal $128,205.15 in salary.
Shanahan will have an in-person hearing with Boston's Shawn Thornton, who pulled down Brooks Orpik and knocked the defenseman unconscious. The date has yet to be announced.

DUNCAN, Okla. — An autopsy has determined Christopher Lane, the 22-year-old Australian shot while jogging in this small southern Oklahoma town, died from a single bullet that collapsed his lungs, fractured two ribs and tore through his hear't's aorta and pulmonary arteries.
The state medical examiner's report said the fatal shot was fired at close range from a .22-caliber revolver into Lane's back at the level of his chest and heart.
Authorities have said three teenagers targeted Lane at random on Aug. 16 because they were bored, shooting him from a car in broad daylight as they approached him on an empty road. He died later at the scene as a passing motorist who had spotted him staggering about called 911.
Arrested four hours afterward were James Edwards Jr., 15; Chancey Luna, 16, and Michael Dewayne Jones, 17. Edwards and Luna were charged with first-degree murder, and Jones, driver of the car, with use of a vehicle in the discharge of a firearm and accessory to murder after the fact.
The nature of the murder -- Jones told police Lane was shot "for the fun of it" -- created widespread publicity of the case in the U.S., Australia and elsewhere. Lane, a native of Melbourne, was in Duncan to visit with his girlfriend and her family before returning for his senior year at Eastern Central University in Ada, Okla., which he attended on a baseball scholarship.
Because of the notoriety, a local judge Tuesday issued a gag order prohibiting attorneys, law enforcement officers and other officials connected with the case from commenting publicly about it. The judge said he did so in the interest of preserving both the prosecution and the defense right to a fair trial.
The gag order did not extend to the news media.
Meanwhile, in Essedon, Australia, a funeral and graveside burial services were held for Lane on Wednesday.
Australian media outlets reported that hundreds of the young athlete's family, friends and acquaintances attended. Prominent among them was girlfriend Sarah Harper, whose family home he was staying at in Duncan at the time of his death.
Details for this story were provided by the Duncan, Okla., Banner.

I love kiwifruit (also known as kiwi) for its fresh zesty flavor, texture and potent nutritional punch. And, wow, all that good stuff means so much more during the winter months when fresh produce with real life to it is tough to find.
Kiwis are native to New Zealand (they're named after the country's kiwi bird) but are grown plentifully around the world and have a wonderfully fresh fruity flavor that's a cross between bananas, strawberries and pineapple. They're rich in vitamins A, C and E, and their black seeds, when crushed or chewed, are an excellent source of beneficial Omega-3 fatty acids. Ripe kiwis are slightly tender to the touch. Usually, though, the fruit comes to market under-ripe and very firm. As mentioned below, the easiest way to ripen under-ripe kiwis is to put them in a paper (not plastic) bag, close the top the way you would close a lunch bag, and keep the bag at room temperature out of direct sunlight. Just beware ripening takes at least a few days - sometimes more than a week.
Ripe kiwis are quick and easy to prepare. You'll see two ways to do that here: half & scoop and peel, slice & chop. In the future, I'll show how to use kiwi in different recipes. It's all terrific stuff!
First, here's how to ripen and prepare kiwis as quickly and easily as possible. As always, for easy to follow step-by-step picture book directions, click this link.
- Kiwis
- Sharp Short Bladed (Paring) Knife
- Cutting Board
- Spoon (if you're cutting the kiwi in half and scooping out the fruit)
- Paper Bag (if needed - to ripen under-ripe kiwis)
How to Check Ripeness and Ripen Kiwis
To check kiwis for ripeness, hold them in one of your hands between your thumb and forefinger, and press the kiwi skin with your thumb using a little more pressure than you'd use to grip a pen firmly. The kiwi is ripe if it feels slightly soft to the touch and has an indent where you squeezed it with your thumb. If, however, your kiwi is firm and doesn't feel soft at all when squeezed, it is under-ripe. To ripen kiwis at home, put them in a paper bag (NOT plastic bag - plastic bags don't allow for the air exchange needed for ripening; paper bags do), close the bag loosely, and store them out of direct sunlight at room temperature for a least a few days or longer. Check every other day or so for ripeness as shown in the photos above and store ripened kiwis in the refrigerator.
How to Prepare Kiwis
See the directions directly below to cut kiwis in half and then scoop and eat them out of their skin. See the directions further below to peel, slice and chop kiwis.
To eat a kiwi right out of its skin, cut it in half cross sectionally, then use a teaspoon to scoop and lift the fruit from its skin.
To peel, slice and chop a kiwi, first use a sharp short bladed (paring) knife to cut under and around the stem patch so that the tough stem end can be removed in a single cone-shaped piece.
Remove the kiwi skin by making shallow cuts just underneath the skin lengthwise down the kiwi side, making sure to remove the bottom patch opposite where the stem patch was.
Cut the skinned kiwi in half lengthwise. Cut each half again lengthwise into 2-3 slices, and then cut the slices in cross section into pieces 1/2 - 3/4 inch (12 - 20 mm) wide.

Newburyport Daily News
---- — NEWBURYPORT — A local man will spend the next two years on probation following his guilty pleas in Newburyport District Court last week for stashing his Mercedes at a Haverhill garage, after claiming it was stolen and collecting $17,000 from his insurance company.
Eric J. Bernardini, 39, of 78 North End Blvd., Salisbury, pleaded guilty to filing a false vehicle insurance claim, moving the vehicle with the intent to defraud and filing a false vehicle theft report with police.
On each of the first two charges, Judge Allen Swan sentenced Bernardini to one year in the house of correction, suspending the jail time and imposing two years' probation. On the third charge of filing a false vehicle theft report with Amesbury police, Swan sentenced Bernardini to two years' probation.
One of the conditions of Bernardini's probation is to make financial restitution for his crime; however, the amount has yet to be determined.
Charges of larceny of more than $250 by a single scheme and issuing a false statement under penalty of perjury were dropped.
Bernardini's wife, Jennifer, 37, was also charged with filing a false vehicle insurance claim. She pleaded to sufficient facts, and Swan continued her case without finding, placing her on probation for one year. All other charges against her related to this crime were dismissed, but she still faces two drug-related charges, according to Carrie Kimball-Monahan, spokeswoman for the Essex County district attorney's office.
Eric Bernardini's scheme to defraud his insurance company came to the attention of the Governor's Auto Theft Strike Force Unit of the state police after a tip was received at the Andover barracks.
According to Trooper Nicholas Baggetta, on Jan. 17 an anonymous source reported that a black Mercedes was parked at Superior Auto Detailing on Hilldale Avenue in Haverhill. According to the source, an employee of the company bragged the vehicle was "involved in an insurance scam" and "set to be chopped."
Court documents indicate that on Jan. 20 Baggetta met with Haverhill police Detective John Moses and both visited the detail shop, finding the 2005 black Mercedes in the parking lot. Baggetta ran a check on the car's vehicle identification number, learning it had been reported stolen to the Amesbury police in late October 2011.
Officers spoke with the garage owner, Matthew P. McAuliffe, 41, of Old Groveland Road, Haverhill, who said the Mercedes belonged to one of his friends, Eric Bernardini, and it was being stored at the shop for the winter. When told of the tip police received, according to Baggetta's report, McAuliffe expressed anger at Bernardini.
McAuliffe provided an initial written statement concerning how the car got to his Haverhill garage, stating it was being stored while its owner was in Florida for the winter. McAuliffe said three months prior to the police visit he'd run into Bernardini, who asked if the facility could store his car. McAuliffe said he agreed storage could take place for $500, adding he'd known Bernardini for a long time.
According to one of McAuliffe's employee, the car was dropped off in late October or early November of 2011 by a man.
Baggetta recovered the vehicle and had it towed to an impound lot, where the car was examined and items within it inventoried.
According to Amesbury police officer Jason Kooken's report, on Oct. 28, 2011, he was sent to Planet Fitness about 8:30 p.m. to take a report of a stolen car. Upon arrival, Jennifer Bernardini said she'd arrived at the gym around 6 p.m. to work out. When she was ready to leave, she couldn't find her husband's Mercedes in the parking lot where she left it. She said she had only one set of keys and the car had been freshly painted.
"Mrs. Bernardini was crying on and off the whole time she was talking to me," according to Kooken's report.
According to court documents, Kooken noted he found no broken glass in the parking lot where the car had been parked or drag marks to indicate the car had been towed.
Back at the Amesbury police station, Jennifer Bernardini signed the stolen car report and the police entered the vehicle into the national crime database and issued a "be on the lookout" broadcast in hopes of other agencies spotting the stolen car.
During the process, Kooken learned Eric Bernardini's Massachusetts driver's license had been suspended for failure to pay child support.
"Mr. Bernardini was not as upset about the car as he was about learning his license was suspended," Kooken wrote. "Ms. Bernardini was more upset about the car than her husband."
As the investigation progressed, Allstate Insurance was contacted to obtain the car's insurance theft claim file. The insurance claim affidavit was signed by Eric Bernardini for the theft of the car, citing the same scenario as that given to Amesbury police. The affidavit also included the claim that there was only one set of keys in the Bernardinis' possession with no duplicate sets made. The couple also said they had no knowledge of the whereabouts of the car, which was purchased for $19,499 from Prestige Motor Sales of Malden in December 2010.
Allstate processed the claim, issuing two checks: one to Eric Bernardini for $2,656.96 on Dec. 23, 2011, and another to Wells Fargo Dealer Service, the loan holder, for $14,348.04 on Dec. 22.
On Jan. 25, Baggetta returned to McAuliffe, who, after signing a Miranda Rights form, issued a formal statement, repeating he'd agreed to store Bernardini's Mercedes for the winter for $500, McAuliffe said. Bernardini dropped off the car, paid $300, saying was going to Florida and had no place to park the car. Bernardini did not leave the keys at that time, saying he was afraid McAuliffe would drive it, according to McAuliffe's statement.

GOLDSBORO — U.S. Air Force officials have identified a pilot and weapons officer killed in the crash Friday of a strike fighter in Afghanistan.
Capt. Thomas J. Gramith, 27, of Eagan, Minn., and Capt. Mark R. McDowell, 26, of Colorado Springs, Colo., died in the crash of the F-15E Strike Eagle, a two-seat fighter-bomber version of the frontline aircraft. McDowell was the pilot of the aircraft, and Gramith was the rear-seat weapons officer.
Their plane was not under enemy fire at the time of the crash, said U.S. Air Force Lt. Matt Schroff. Both men were assigned to the 336th Fighter Squadron at Seymour Johnson Air Force Base near Goldsboro. The incident is still under investigation, Schroff said.

It's the time of year where outdoor events abound. Doss Heritage and Culture Center has a new space to take advantage of the warmer weather.
Event Coordinator Miranda Murphy says the newly expanded outdoor event space, which opened April 6 after four months of work, is perfect for weddings of up to 200 people. She said the idea for the space came from the public.
"We kept hearing how that area behind the building would be perfect for an outdoor wedding with a little work," Murphy said. "That was kind of my 'make it work' moment."
Murphy said the facility previously held around 3-4 weddings a year for about 50 people. With the recent work being done, which included construction of a bridge, a small path near the building's handicapped parking for those guests with mobility issues, and the clearing out of a number of trees and brush, the facility is now booked solid for weddings for the rest of the year.
"We have a couple of openings in November and December around Thanksgiving and Christmas but other than that we are full on Saturdays for the rest of the year," Murphy said. "We have lots of openings for 2014, however."
What makes the work even more worthwhile is the fact much of it was done in-house with center staff, board members, family members and volunteers pitching in, Murphy said. She said the space came together over the four workdays with her and staff member Nathan Beck, who constructed the bridge, doing additional work whenever possible.
With the Doss Center being a non-profit facility, there is still some minor work to be done outside. The planting of some very small areas of sod, having no direct electricity to the space and one outside plug are some of the improvements Murphy would like to see done in time. Still, the large shaded area that features a nice breeze with the trees surrounding the venue and the competitive prices provide for a nice facility.

Rating 4.0 of 5:
I ordered these Dr. Scholls Leather Kilte Tassel Loafers in the gray. It is like a medium gray. I ordered a size 10Medium and they fit perfect. At first when I tried them on they were tight, but after a few hours the leather loosened up. The length is true to size as well as the width. However, the sole is cheaply made. Not like the black ones I ordered 3 years ago. They are well cushioned. I do like them.

By Mike Harrington
I'm going to give it up to Jhonas Enroth here. While watching last night's 2-1 shootout loss to Florida, you felt pangs of empathy for the guy. I still have no real idea if he can be a No. 1 goalie in the NHL -- specifically if he can be the guy if the Sabres trade Ryan Miller. His play in leading Sweden to a gold medal in last year's World Championships gives you pause to think he can but that's a short tournament, not a grueling NHL season.
Enroth has exactly one win this season in 13 starts. One. It was a 3-1 victory Oct. 25 at Florida, when he sparkled in making 44 of 45 saves.
Every other goalie in the NHL who has started at least 13 games this year has at least five wins.
Enroth has played 14 games, posting a 1-8-4 record with a 2.46 goals-against average and .916 save percentage. Frankly, with that kind of record for this kind of team, that GAA and save percentage seems pretty darn good. And the numbers are bloated by his 6-3 loss here Nov. 2 to Anaheim, where the Ducks got all of their goals in the final 31 minutes.
Let's play the numbers game a minute and take that one away (yes, I know you can't). Now Enroth would be 1-7-4, 2.18 and .925. Quite an improvement.
The biggest issue, of course, is the Sabres don't score for him at all. Like he said last night in a quote that's getting a lot of run today: "I'm running out of answers. It's tough to win with this team."
Sure is. The Sabres have three goals in Enroth's last four starts, when he is 0-2-2, 1.97 and .935.
Last night was the eighth time this season the Sabres have been shut out or scored just once with Enroth in goal. They've scored just 17 goals in his 13 starts, a measly 1.31 per game. But it's not like they score a lot more for Miller either, with 53 goals in 30 starts or an average of 1.77 (not counting the five shootout winners on his behalf).
Enroth is the classic starting pitcher who never gets any run support and it's got to be driving him crazy. His quote shows that it is. But I give the guy credit. His frustration isn't affecting his play. He's active in the crease and all those goalposts the Panthers hit weren't luck. A lot of them were a product of Enroth's angles.
Enroth can't score. All he can do is stop the puck. He's doing a pretty good job of that.

Stone Work in Cold Weather (Brookhaven, Pennsylvania)
It was the first day after a long stretch of cold days earlier this month, when the weather was finally above freezing and the sun was offering warmth for those who had to be outdoors. Larry Shoemaker and Adam Keys were workers who had to be outdoors in order to do a job for their company RockSolid Installations. They were taking advantage of the warmer weather to do their puzzle work of placing a stone veneer over brick on a marquee for the Borough of Brookhaven.
In the photos you can see that Larry and Adam had already completed a bit of the puzzle. Larry told me that if he gets to a spot and he does not have a stone that fits, then it is necessary to shave a stone to make it fit. To me this work takes an eye for detail and a sense of balance. Wonderful work guys!

By Anne McKee / guest columnist
The Meridian Star
You might ask – what is a neighborhood dog? In our case, the neighborhood dog is an opportunity to enjoy the company of a sweet, sweet puppy, without the expense of dog food and vet bills.
Quickly, I must say, we would pay, if the pup had a need, but you see he has a home. He visits our neighborhood only a couple of times during the month. You know just long enough for a pat on the head and a meaningful conversation. Yes, we do engage in thought provoking and stimulating debate with the canine, somewhat, or so it has seemed.
Oh, Otis Earle is one of those pups that you feel you've known forever. He is a Red Blood Hound (notice I used caps because he is so special), probably registered, not that it matters. I shall never forget the first time he stopped by to say, "Hello." He hobbled up our drive and we knew he was on a mission. It was a warm day and he stopped to rest under our largest pine tree — close enough to hear our conversation.
His bony tail wagged gently in a figure eight circulation as he gazed our way, with a gentle look in his brown eyes. He sat there with his front legs crossed and a pleasant look upon his face. He wasn't aggressive at all but friendly and pleasant. We didn't know it at the time, but Otis Earle had entered our world and our life would be better because of him.
I mentioned his hobble, and, yes, we were concerned. He didn't seem to be in pain, but yet – his flunky gait was not normal. We noticed a name tag on his collar and he allowed us to see the words, Otis Earl, and a phone number. My husband called "Mr. Earle" to ask if he owned a friendly Red Blood Hound and if we could bring him home.
As it turned out, Otis Earle was the dog's name. His owner said, "Oh, he's fine. He'll come home after-a-while." So, Otis Earle stayed with us that first time for about two hours. He just sat around with us, like an old friend.
During the phone call, my husband asked about the hobble. The owner explained that Otis Earle had suffered a hit-and-run a few years back — that he had surgery on his hip, which resulted in the hobble, nothing to worry about, he said, but we did worry, because you see, the pup was now our friend.
I suppose we enjoy Otis Earle's company because he made us think of our Coon Dog (there's those caps, again), named Hi-Ball. Dear, dear Hi-Ball didn't have too much in the looks department (like Otis Earle), but his joyfulness made up for it. Actually, Hi-Ball became one of the most beautiful pets we've ever had the privilege to include in our family. We had him for 13 years and we still miss his big brown eyes and bony, wag, wagging tail.
It was earlier this week, when I noticed the announcement of the children's play, "Clifford the Big Red Dog" (upcoming date — Feb. 12) at the MSU/Riley Center, that I thought of Otis Earle and Hi-Ball. You could say that all three pups are big, lovable, and gentle souls. Something about the gentle giants of the canine world continues to be appealing for all ages. I hope to attend the presentation and enjoy "Clifford" as well, and, no, I'm not too old. So there!
In the human world, it would be nice to encounter more of the Otis Earle and Hi-Ball types. Oh, there are a few out there. Yes, just a few, but humans get all entangled with silly things that take away the true sweetness of the gentle and giant pups of the world.
A few favorite dog quotes (things I wish I had written):
• "I think dogs are the most amazing creatures; they give unconditional love. … My goal in life is be as good of a person as my dog already thinks I am."
— George Eliot
• "Dogs never bite me. Just humans." ~ Marilyn Monroe
• "Heaven goes by favor. If it went by merit, you would stay out and your dog would go in."
— Mark Twain
• "If a dog will not come to you after having looked you in the face, you should go home and examine your conscience."
— Woodrow Wilson
• "The more boys I meet the more I love my dog."
— Carrie Underwood
• "You call to a dog and a dog will break its neck to get to you. Dogs just want to please. Call to a cat and its attitude is, 'What's in it for me?'"
— Lewis Grizzard
So today, let us celebrate Otis Earle and Hi-Ball, and, yes, Clifford the Big Red Dog as well, and let us think of this ole world without our canine friends. I'm sure you agree it would be a dreary and dull place without them.
Can we even imagine a dog-free-life? Really? I don't think so … give your dog a hug today, because he or she already loves you, and you want to go to Heaven with them, don't you?
One more thing … George and Gracie, my solid white, twin kitties are a might upset. You see they did not know Lewis Grizzard, and, well, the two fuzzy ones want you to know they do not always have the attitude, "What's in it for me?" Not every time, that is …
Love your pets – they are the best friends you will ever have, and if you are lucky, Otis Earle will come by one day for a visit.
