Giants DE Osi Umenyiora has not had the smoothest offseason. First, he sounded off after what he believed was a slight last season, getting benched in favor of Mathias Kiwanuka, which set off a tense standoff with the Giants' coaches and management. And through the offseason, Umenyiora weighed the pros and cons of getting his painful hip condition surgically repaired before eventually deciding he can play this season through the pain.
Electing to have surgery might have made things easier for Umenyiora in the long term, but he thinks he made the right choice — for now — to leave it alone. The decision was made even after noted specialist Dr. Marc Philippon recommended that Umenyiora have the hip, which has given Umenyiora pain since he tore his hip flexor in 2006, cut open.
"Obviously, there's nothing (new) about the warning that (associate team physician) Brian Kelly and (head trainer) Ronnie Barnes haven't been telling me for the last couple of years, but I'm really not looking forward to getting cut open again," Umenyiora said. "It's something I really don't want to do, but at some point it's going to be necessary and at some point — if I feel like I need to prolong my career or something — I'm going to have to do it eventually."
Umenyiora is heading into his ninth season, coming off a forgettable campaign. The Giants' defense also struggled badly, and the lack of pressure became a decided weakness after it had been an unquestioned strength during the 2007 and '08 seasons. Umenyiora said he's not considering retirement after this season but knows he might not have a lot more years of football in his future.
"Best-case scenario: Four (more seasons)," Umenyiora said.
Although the injury is unspecified, something Umenyiora and the team have not delved into specifically, it appears that fighting through pain might be his biggest obstacle right now and that doing further damage by playing isn't a real concern.
"(Playing) doesn't affect it at all," he said. "It's something I've dealt with for a while now, so it doesn't affect it at all. As far as me coming out here and competing, I'm going to compete and I'm going to play to the best of my ability and whatever happens after that happens."
Right now, the Giants have not set a pecking order on the defensive line, but our sources say it's likely that Kiwanuka could start with Umenyiora coming off the bench in a rotation. When asked how the Giants might use him, Umenyiora said he will do what the coaches ask of him and admitted he made some poor judgment calls in the offseason.
"I think they're going to use us to the best of our abilities. I think there's enough out there for everybody," he said. "Obviously I've been very selfish in the past with my demands and some of the things that I have wanted, but I don't really feel that way anymore right now. There's enough playing time for everybody.
"No matter where they put me, if I'm coming off the bench, I'm just going to be the best damn player ever so whatever they require me to do."

- Great spot for a conversationChiefforadayDined on 8/29/2014The table and restaurant design is great for a good meal and conversation. The booths add privacy and a sense of intimacy not found in other restaurants. The food is very good. I was very satisfied with the menu selection.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- OpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 8/29/2014We go here often and every time is always good, friendly service, knowledgable and great staff, only complaint this time around was our chocolate fondue was very oily and gelatinous for some reason, and the pineapple was less than fresh. Nonetheless, we will go back.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- 24th Anniversary DinnerOpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 8/25/2014A friend had recommend The Melting Pot to us. We were pleasantly surprised with the restaurant from the intimate tables to the relaxed atmosphere to the delightful staff. Our waitress, Gina, was amazing. Apparently she had only been there for about 2 weeks and was very knowledgeable and personable, we would have never guessed that she was fairly new at her job.Special Features:
- Melts the Soul and Warms the HeartaverageschmoDined on 8/22/2014There's something magical about fondue cooking and The Melting Pot is a great introduction. Although a little pricey, the four course experience is definitely worth every penny. It's a meal you won't soon forget.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Go for the Cheese or ChocolateAndy58VIPDined on 8/16/2014We used a coupon for salad and the main course and were disappointed with the food and cooking style. We should have just gone for the fondue appetizer and chocolate dessert. They looked much better. Also, the prices are on the high side. The service was good and the private booths are an excellent way to dine.Special Features:
- Melting Pot does a nice jobSaratogaLocalDined on 8/16/2014Melting Pot always does a nice job--the only problem is the price. It is just too expensive. We are vegetarians and enjoy all the courses--cheese fondue, salad, main course and chocolate. For three adults and two kids, no alcohol, the total was $170, plus tip. Nice service, very attentive, but not intrusive. Food is good, but the price makes it tough to get there more than infrequently.Special Features:
- Fabulous everything!Emdog42Dined on 8/15/2014Had a wonderful diner the waitress was very informative. The owner came by to make sure everything was amazing. Would definitely recommend anybody who wants a nice diner where you have fun cooking your own food.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- FunOpenTable Diner Since 2010VIPDined on 8/8/2014Great place for family. Service a little slow but food and venue fineSpecial Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Amazing experienceWineanddineDined on 8/7/2014From the spectacular service (Frank), to the food (beyond amazing) to the atmosphere (private and intimate), this place is where it's at. No complaints at all. A fun time cooking your own delicious food, the price was steep but we knew that going in as you can view the menu online. Definitely not an every week spot (at least not for our budget) but for special occasions this is the new Albany restaurant to beat.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- great eveningfondufunDined on 8/6/2014Our meal was excellent. We did the four course option and everyone enjoyed every aspect of it. Our servers, (Gina and Christine, I think), were friendly, helpful, and very attentive. This was our first experience at Melting Pot, we will definitely be back.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- DeliciousKarenDined on 8/1/2014We enjoyed a delicious, enjoyable dining experience. Wait staff was professional, friendly and prompt.Special Features:
- Good Food, Slow ServiceKimSDined on 7/30/2014The food is very good, although overpriced for what you get. The biggest problem is that the service is almost unbearably slow, which makes no sense given that the kitchen doesn't actually have to cook anything. I went out with a friend and we just had fondue appetizer and dessert, no entree and it still took 2 hours between being seated and getting our check.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Melting potOpenTable Diner Since 2013Dined on 7/29/2014Wasn't what we expected but we really enjoyed it! Very romantic excellent for Anniversary or date!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- No kids!OpenTable Diner Since 2012Dined on 7/26/2014The Melting Pot in Albany is probably my favorite restaurant. It provides privacy between tables so you don't have to be right next to an annoying family. What annoys me though is when people bring their kids in. This is a fondue restaurant-not Friendly's! It's rare but it does happen. The waiter was plain-which is also a rare find at The Melting Pot, but that did not take away from the amazing taste of the food. Overall a quiet, romantic atmosphere that takes you away from the outside world for a while.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Amazingly great!ssjacktabsDined on 7/26/2014We did the anniversary package. It includes a picture in a beautiful glass frame, glass vase with 3 roses, champagne toast, and a 4-course experience. The food was just incredible, almost as good as our honeymoon at Sandals! I would recommend skipping the salad because between the 1st, 3rd, and 4th course you are STUFFED!!! We did not go home hungry.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Date NightLorvoltaDined on 7/19/2014This was my 3rd time dining at The Melting Pot, but the 1st time for my boyfriend. I actually have to admit, that I've never gone to The Melting Pot WITHOUT a coupon, because I personally find it to be very expensive for a chain restaurant. However, this one in Albany has always been wonderful in service. Our waiter, Caleb, was amazing and kind. He checked on us occasionally and was very pleasant. I stated on Open Table that, if available, I would like to be seated in one of their more private booths away from the bar and main aisle. When I got there, they seated us in the EXACT place I requested, which was wonderful. The owner even came around to check on us. The food has always been consistently good; I just find it expensive.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Pricey but a fun experiencewebchip59Dined on 7/18/2014We had the 4-course experience. I found it to be a bit pricey considering I was cooking the main entree. I decided we were paying for the fun fondue experience rather that the amount of food they give you.Special Features:
- Janson13Dined on 7/15/2014my sister, who had never been here, took me for my birthday dinner. We had great food and great service.Special Features:
- We're becoming regularsOpenTable Diner Since 2013Dined on 7/15/2014We keep going back and back! Love it...Michael the waiter is the best! Look for their coupons to make it more manageble.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- OpenTable Diner Since 2013Dined on 7/8/2014This is one place that myself and the kids can all agree on. Service is great. We go quite often, probably kore than the average family, but once you figure out how and what to order, and look for coupons, it's not all that expensive. It's a great dining experience. Staff is always spot-on!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Feels gimmickyGimmickyDined on 7/1/2014Loved our private nook, and wait staff were great. The signature salad was lovely. The wines were fine. But food was of low quality (cut veggies were shriveled and dry), and meats overly spiced even after I asked for plain. The cuts of beef were too chewy, the desserts were over-the-top sweet, before they went into the pot, and tasted chemically. At the end of the meal, I felt like is been slaving over a hot stove (which I had!) and all for outrageously high prices... No, we will not be back.Special Features:
- Great time!eb116Dined on 6/21/2014A friend and I went for dinner here and really liked it. The whole cook/prepare your own food thing threw us off a little bit but it was definitely a new and interesting experience. The menu is very diverse, there is sure to be something you enjoy. We loved the S'mores chocolate fondue! And our server Megan was amazing! Great service and very friendly and knowledgeable.Special Features:
- ServiceEatzzDined on 6/19/2014Service is never very good there. Not many happy and polite employees that work there. Service takes for ever, for what ever reason. Not kid friendly, if they are hungry. Finally got some napkins after asking three times.Special Features:
- EnjoyableWnterwarlockDined on 6/19/2014Went there for a 50th birthday celebration and had a very nice time. Only concerns was how slow the service was and how dirty the light fixture hanging right above our food was. I completely understand this is supposed to be a relaxed and laid back dining experience but 3 hours was a wee bit extreme.Special Features:
- Always a Fun Timejoeyd8711Dined on 6/14/2014Never had a bad experience here. The wine list is amazing, the food impeccable.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- OpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 6/13/2014The food was incredible! Our server, Tiffani, made the experience so much better! We were seated right away with our reservation. I would definitley go back!!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- First VisitOpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 6/13/2014It was a bit confusing at first but waitress was very accommodating and helpful. Food was very food. Ingredients were very fresh. We were celebrating and it was a nice treat!Special Features:
- OkFoodforthoughtDined on 5/27/2014They really don't bring out the amount of food you are entitled to unless specifically asked. Prices are very high for what you get.Special Features:
- Excellent food and serviceFirstvisitDined on 5/25/2014First visit to this MP and had excellent service and food while celebration a family member's college graduation.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great Fun!OpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 5/20/2014I took a group of students for an end of the year celebration and we had such a great time. I was worried we wouldn't have enough time to eat and get back to school for an awards assembly but our waiter took great care of us and made sure that we were able to have three courses and still have enough time to get back to school. Didn't feel rushed and it was a very relaxed atmosphere. Would definitely take them back again!Special Features:
- Horrible cheese fondueZagatDined on 5/19/2014Horrible cheese fondue, has a very distinct smell of white vine, did not like it, lost appetite after trying it.Special Features:
- ExcellentMinLeeDined on 5/17/2014We had a great time me and my wife. We loved our server- Sean. The table behind us was a bit noisy all through dinner we could hear their convetsation.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Once in a whiletommy13vDined on 5/10/2014The Melting Pot takes too long, is too expensive for what you're getting, and at the end of the night you're tipping other people after you've cooked your own food. Its a nice experience, but not something worth doing regularly. Also the waiter we had was too slow for my taste and when I had an issue with one of the sauces tasting like flour his response was "Oh, it must have been a bad batch" and that was it. Food was way salty and drank 3 glasses of water but getting more water was difficult as our waiter went missing for more than 25 minutes at a time during our 2.5hr dinner.Special Features:
- Mother's Day Treasureautumneve29Dined on 5/9/2014I was very blessed to spend my Friday before Mother's day here with my three children (3, 5, & 7). We had a wonderful time and were treated exceptionally well. The children were very welcome in this atmosphere and the layout makes it easy to have little children there and not feel that you are disturbing anyone else. Our server was very hospitable and fun. While preparing our cheese fondue- he asked what brought us out and I told him that we were celebrating Mother's Day, but I was the only one who brought my purse. He quickly smirked and said, "Well you know, we have a special for Mother's Day- we are accepting Pokémon cards like cash!" This was much to the dismay of my son- who happened to have a bunch in the car! Great time. Thank You!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- makrockDined on 5/8/2014Went late at night,hard to find someone to be seatedbut ended up just asking for aa table. Waiter Alex was fantastic, vevery patient and explained everything well. Definitly would recommend friends to visit here.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Birthday dinner,service=TERRIBLEMelissaDined on 5/8/2014Everything was great as usual except my waitress was horrible. She was trying to get a high check and upsell everything, to the point it made her seem stupid. Telling a party of 4 adults and 5 kids we all had to buy "extra portions of cheese otherwise we would only get one dip per person" when we had the pots of cheese going and four, four course meals were ordered. Also each child got a kids meal. We CLEARLY and at least 4x asked if one mother and her daughter only could be on there own check, she brought the check it was all together, and she said we never asked and could swipe as many cards as we wanted but we had to do the math and she could no longer seperate checks. She NEVER came back In between courses for drink refills, HORRIBLE !!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- good but overpricedAmericanmessiDined on 5/6/2014Environment and service are good. Food meet expectations but not that great. Good for couples. Overpriced!Special Features:
- The following 290 reviews are from the The Melting Pot - Albany reviews archive.
- MehKristyBDined on 5/4/2014Could've been 4 stars, had things not gone so wrong. Waiter seemed overwhelmed; I think they had him working different sections of the restaurant. When he brought the broths for cooking, they sat their heating up until they burned, with still nothing to cook at the table. We had to have both broths replaced, and wait for them to heat up again. We added an additional entree, and were told told 2-3 minutes(it's uncooked food after all), try 20-30. Entrees were cleared, chocolate order was placed and we sat there 26 minutes with nothing; just waiting. Another 40 to pay the bill. I had to flag down the manager, who kept simply walking by, long after we'd finished. Waiter was very nice and I don't blame him, I think it was out of his hands.

cleaning up
my general feeling is that if we could really clean up our system, a full audit to reassess where the money is going, and then cutting old antiquated systems, we could then fund raise to make the rest. we CAN NOT let our education continue this way. our children are our future.

A township man is being held on $125,000 bail after police said that he ordered a 19-year-old and his minor friend to drive him to a drug purchase.
The suspect, 27-year-old Andrew Meli of Main Street, allegedly was armed with a semi-automatic handgun when confronted a 19-year-old Manchester man parked at the Toms River Apartments who was waiting for his 16-year-old female friend. When the girl arrived, Meli then allegedly demanded that the pair drive him to a drug purchase, said Toms River Chief of Police Michael Mastronardy.
Meli was driven to a South Toms River residence where he allegedly bought cocaine and took $40 from the victims before they were able to drive away, Mastronardy said.
Detectives Roger Hull and Brian Lomer, assisted by South Toms River police, completed an investigation and were able to identify Meli as the suspect. He was taken into custody at his Toms River Apartments residence at 4 a.m. Tuesday without incident, Mastronardy said.
Meli was charged with robbery and remains in the Ocean County Jail on $125,000 bail, according to the county Department of Corrections.
The gun allegedly used during the incident was not recovered by police, the chief said, and the investigation is ongoing.
The names of the victims were not released by police. The 19-year-old came to the Toms River Police Department headquarters at 9:30 p.m. Monday to report the incident, according to Mastronardy.

The American Federation of Government Employees, better known as AFGE, represents 650,000 federal and DC government workers-- everyone from maintenance workers, nurses, engineers to social services. They'll all be effected by the government shutdown. Department of Justice Attorney Carmel Morgan did what she could to try and relax this weekend, but it was tough.
"It does feel a little different this weekend because I don't know what's going to happen,"Morgan says.
AFGE has told its members to report to work as usual Monday, and stay tuned for updates on a possible government shutdown. " I'm very frustrated. It's aggravating and I don't think uncertainty is good for anybody. It's not good in the business world, and I don't think it's a good way to run the country,"Morgan says,
Eric Bunn,National Vice President for AFGE District 14 says Congress needs to know this isn't just about money, it's about people's lives.
" It's impacting services. You're impacting morale. You're impacting what they're going to do. How do you know if you' re going to be able to pay your mortgage next week?
Bunn says AFGE is taking its protests to the next level.
" AFGE does have a plan. We're taking legal action against the government. We're informing our members how to contact their Congressmen. People need to stand up and say something enough is enough,"Bunn says.
Time may be running out. Some analysts say the fact that the House approved a bill to keep paying us soldiers in the event the government runs out of money on October first may be a sign that they've resigned themselves to a shutdown.

6People Reports That Johnny Depp and Vanessa Paradis Really Are Over
From People magazine:
Once upon a time, Johnny Depp and Vanessa Paradis lived a quiet family life far from the spotlight in the sleepy French hamlet of Plan-de-la-Tour.
But that time is no more, and now the couple largely reside in L.A. – when they are in the same city at all. … Multiple sources tell PEOPLE in this week's cover story that the relationship is all but officially finished. In fact, some in their circle say the couple of nearly 14 years have already split. Says one insider: "It's so sad."
And Hollywood Life expands on the story, noting the gradual breakdown of Johnny and Vanessa's relationship over the last months:
-In November, Johnny and Vanessa were both in Paris, but stayed in separate hotels. Johnny attended the premiere of The Rum Diary while "she went instead to a concert that night," a source reveals. "It was weird and pretty clear: You're in town and don't go to the premiere of [Johnny's] film? One which he starred in, produced?" During that trip, Vanessa also went to a Karl Lagerfeld event without Johnny.
-Vanesssa didn't go with Johny to the Cannes Film Festival in May to promote Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides. "We couldn't believe they wouldn't come together," a source notes.
-While home in LA, Johnny and Vanessa reportedly live in different houses.
-Last summer, they went cruising on their yacht "Vajoliroja," but it was an awkward trip. They "didn't arrive to pick up the boat together," says a witness. "When it was over, they were off in separate directions."
-While filming in Hawaii for On Stranger Tides in 2010, Johnny would go out drinking at local bards and "chat with girls and was very friendly and flirty," shares a source.
-Johnny also spent a lot of nights out partying in Puerto Rico while filming The Rum Diary in 2009.
-When the couple's relationship began, they lives quietly in a French village called Plan-de-la-Tour. But when they moved to Hollywood, Johnny's growing career started to destroy their relationship.
Of course, this is all hearsay from "inside sources" and "friends in the same circle," but the fact that it's on the f-cking cover of People magazine? Shit's got to be real, here, friends, and I doubt there's going to be much to do when it comes to really breaking the back of Johnny and Vanessa's relationship, if, indeed, it isn't over already like some of their "friends" say.
I, personally, don't think it comes across right now as much of a surprise, as Johnny's public behavior has been kind of erratic over the past few months, what with his drunken stumbles and confusing interviews that never used to happen because Johnny prided himself on being secure and private, revealing absolutely none of the details of his personal life, good or bad. I think it's pretty obvious that there've been cracks forming in the couple's relationship, and this, probably, is the beginning of the end, if it's not already the middle of the end.
Poor guys.

i'm going through the same thing. i hope they can work it out. when you're family, you should be able to make amends and move forward as a family.
She looks like Mary-Kate in fast-forward.
I am very sad about this break up. L.A. screws up too many famous, loving couples. They should have stayed in France…
It has to be difficult on this kids as well… I also hope things will go in the right loving direction they were on…..
I feel for both of them. it is hard times right now for the whole family. I hope they work out their difficulties…
I Love you ALL
I lived in L.A. for a long time and I am sick to death of people blaming their personal failures on this great town and its "evil" influences. Can't we just say,"Hey, they had a good thing for a long time, 2 great kids, but people changed and he/she changed and needed something(one) different and they broke up." It would have happened no matter where they were: the heavenly, perfectly beyond reproach FRANCE or the nasty, stinky old Los Angeles. Grow up.
BUT… did all the trouble start when Johnny filmed The Tourist with Angelina Jolie? That is the question.
Screw you Blasted1… That is your problem your too blasted on too much weed. That is how how come you have never found love or never will. You GROW the fuck up!!!!! Your not famous and you don't have to worry about some one stealing your love one…… cause no one loves you!!!!!

It's that time of year again to dust of the old crystal ball and put forth some predictions as to what 2009 holds for the world of green technology. Rather than leaving the speculation to myself, however, I once again decided to tap experts at a host of organizations on how they envision green IT evolving in the year to come.
Suffice to say that no one has dismissed the green-tech movement as a mere passing fad. Both economic and political conditions (e.g. President-Elect Obama's vision of a cleaner energy economy) will continue to drive vendors to develop greener wares and organizations across the board to embrace greener practices -- be it in the name of cutting costs, meeting environmental regulations, or simply "doing the right thing."
[ Stay abreast of green-tech news by subscribing to Ted Samson's free weekly Green Tech newsletter. ]
Green-tech predictions for 2009 follow:
Robert Aldrich, director of datacenter solutions, Cisco
1. Green in the U.S. market related to IT will be replaced by more concise, definable concepts in the mainstream media, such as energy equivalents.
2. The first generation of IP-based energy management applications will be released from many major IT vendors.
3. IT's consumption profiles will start to be measured under new criteria with teleworking and cloud computing as the next "killer apps" (today's killer app: virtualization).
In summary, I would say that 2009 will see the emergence on a number of sleeper "greenies" who have been doing their homework diligently over the last two years. I firmly believe that many in IT want to do the right thing (in this case, the "right thing" meaning the altruistic thing) but simply lack the time and monetary incentive to do so. The issue is not so much the IT professional per se but the system by which our roles are incentivized.
I think 2009 will be about what I would call Green IT 1.0, and that is "What does Green IT mean to me? What can I do individually, professionally, above and beyond recycling at home, to feel like I'm part of the solution?" In a word, internalization and the realization that a "green" lifestyle is a choice and involves a series of educated trade-offs.
Conversely, a sound focus in a down market is to trim operating expenditure through incremental improvements to infrastructure and operations. With commercial energy market volatility, popular opinion, and geopolitical considerations at hand, the time to examine a sound energy strategy is now.

Dream Chaser passes wind-tunnel testing
Last Updated: 16:09 May 19, 2014
The award is for SNC's Dream Chaser spacecraft passing wind-tunnel testing, or CiCap Milestone 8.
Dream Chaser, being developed by Nevada-based SNC's Space Systems division in Louisville, is slated for its first unmanned orbital flight in 2016, with a manned flight to follow in 2017.
Milestone 8 helped advance design of Dream Chaser as it relates to the flight dynamics the vehicle will face during ascent and re-entry. Several scale-model Dream Chasers underwent different wind-tunnel tests, including with an attached United Launch Alliance Atlas V launch vehicle.
The tests were completed at NASA's Ames Research Center in California, the CALSPAN Transonic Wind Tunnel in New York and NASA's Langley Research Center Unitary Plan Wind Tunnel in Virginia.
"The aerodynamic data collected during these tests has further proven and validated Dream Chaser's integrated spacecraft and launch vehicle system design," Mark Sirangelo, corporate vice president and head of SNC's Space Systems division, said in a release. "It also has shown that Dream Chaser's expected performance is greater than initially predicted."
The composite shell of the Dream Chaser vehicle that will make the first trip to space is being built in Louisiana by Lockheed Martin, while various systems and components continue to be built in Louisville.
A test vehicle that completed a successful October flight test in California, which is being outfitted for further flight tests later this year, was built in Louisville.

1/ Why would anyone bother turning the Gaelic Grounds into a 40k-all seater stadium when clearly there is no demand for such a facility. As has been said, there are insufficient important matches in Munster to require three very large stadiums: Thurles, Cork & Limerick.
2/ GAA stadiums are always going to be more inclined towards uncovered stands/terraces because it is a Summer sport. A roof is expensive, as was seen at Croke Park, where the roof does not cover the first twenty odd rows in the stands because of the price of overhanging that far. Logic for this would obviously include the fact that all important matches take place from May to September.
vkid wrote:Possibly one of the worst locations for a stadium ever. If they had any real vision for the place they would have moved it to a green field site and made a fortune on the site. I think GAA is always going to be the poor relation of rugby in Limerick city though.

A Colorado woman was impaled by a light pole after she crashed because she was texting and driving.
A man was arrested in Rock Hill on 13 charges after vehicles at a local fitness club were burglarized, according to the York County Sheriff's Office.
The break-ins happened on Wednesday, February 13, at the Omni Fitness Center on Celanese Road. Once on scene, deputies were told by four different victims that their vehicles were broken into, the report states.
On all four vehicles, a window had been busted out, and various items including wallets, purses, bags, and credit/debit cards were stolen.
Forensics officers then arrived at the scene and processed the vehicles.
Later the same day, deputies were notified that a purse was found on Kingsley Drive by a man walking his dog. The purse was found to belong to one of the victims and returned to its owner.
After investigating the thefts, deputies arrested Kenneth Leon Jackson, 32, for the crimes.
Jackson was charged with four counts of breaking and entering into an automobile, four counts of petit larceny, two counts of fugitive from justice for warrants in North Carolina and Florida, and one count each of criminal conspiracy, driving under license suspension, and headlights improper.

National Grid crews have restored power to the vast majority of customers who lost their electricity amid the gusty winds and driving winds after a nor-easter blew across Gloucester and Cape Ann last night and this oinring.
But public works and other crews are still tending to some downed branches and lines, and more than 300 Gloucester customers remained without power as of 4 p.m.
That's down significantly from this morning, when some 1,500 customers were without electricity in Gloucester and another 1,400 were without power in Essex at one point.
The ost widespread downed lines in the city came in East Gloucester, where more than 800 people had their electricity knocked out and motorists had to make their way gingerly through the East Main Street and Bass Avenue traffic lights, which were also rendered dark.
Meanwhile, workers from Beacon Marine struggled this morning to free the sailing vessel Ginkgo from the Rocky Neck causeway after it was apparently torn from its mooring overnight and washed aground.
The nor'easter comes just 10 days after Cape Ann's brush with superstorm Sandy, which brought wind gusts of up to 80 mph and killed power to some 5,000 customers last week in Gloucester alone.

Thursday we first told you about two parents of Boyd Elementary school students, who say their children were sexually assaulted by another student. The parents were furious that no action had been taken on their cases. Today more parents are speaking out about their children also falling victims.
Kimberly Davenport says her daughter was sexually assaulted in the same way by the same Boyd Elementary 5th grader.
"She stuck her hands in her pants and wiped it on my daughter," said Davenport.
Davenport says she never talked to school officials, but her daughter did report the incident to her teacher. Her and two other parents say school officials have taken no action to resolve the assaults, and the 11 Year Old girl who committed them is still in school.
"Once she told her teacher she thought her teacher was going to resolve the situation, so my mother never got a call. She thought it was over with and it happened again, Davenport added. "It's very upsetting because if she can do it to mine, she can do it to 2,3,4 other children you know what I'm saying. If you can't resolve the situation there's no need for her to be in school."
Davenport says she and other parents who attended awards day were stunned when they say the alleged perpetrator receive numerous awards from school officials, while their cases seemed to get no attention.
"The kids that did work hard are the ones that needed to do what they had to do instead of awarding them they awarded her," said Davenport. "It seems like they gave her a tap on the shoulder and told her go you good."
The Jackson Public Schools office of campus enforcement would only release a statement saying they are conducting and investigation into the alleged sexual activity.

Valspar restoration series in the rattle can is pretty fair stuff. However, the nozzle is bad. It allows drops to come out with the spray. The fix is to put an old Rustolium or Ace Hardware nozzle on the can, works like it should. This has happened to about 6 cans of Valspar.

CATEGORIES Action, Comedy, Thrillers, Box Office, Box Office Predictions, UK Box Office, Cinematical, UK Box OfficeAs expected, in addition to kicking the Statue of Liberty's butt, Cloverfield beat back the competition to be the clear winner this past weekend, breaking a couple of records in the process. The giant monster flick now has the highest January opening weekend on record (a record previously held by the 1997 release of the Special Edition of Star Wars) as well as being the top earner for the Martin Luther King holiday weekend (previously held by Black Hawk Down). 27 Dresses opened to less stellar, but still respectable numbers, while last week's other release, Mad Money, finished sixth. Here's the rundown:
1. Cloverfield: $41 million.
2. 27 Dresses: $22.4 million.
3. The Bucket List: $15.2 million.
4. Juno: $10.3 million.
5. First Sunday: $7.8million.
We've got four new releases this week, and between the laughs, greased pecs, automatic weapons, and dancing, there should be something for everyone.
How She Move
What's It All About: After her sister's death from a drug overdose, a girl must leave the private high school she's been attending and return to the drug and crime-infested neighborhood she came from. An opportunity to take part in a dance competition traditionally dominated by males gives her the hope of winning enough money to continue her education.
Why It Might Do Well: It should have strong youth appeal and has an 80% Fresh rating over at Rottentomatoes.com.
Why It Might Not Do Well: English teachers everywhere will be shrieking in agony over the grammatical atrocity committed by the title, and I've got to tell you its got me cringing too.
Number of Theaters: 1,500
Prediction: $12 million
Meet the Spartans
What's It All About: In the style of the Scary Movie franchise, Not Another Teen Movie and Date Movie comes this lampooning of 300.
Why It Might Do Well: Anything's possible.
Why It Might Not Do Well: This type of parody has been done to death.
Number of Theaters: 2,600
Prediction: $10 million
What's It All About: Long-awaited new entry in the Rambo series, with Sylvester Stallone returning as the quintessential angry Vietnam vet.
Why It Might Do Well: Stallone had a successful comeback for his Rocky character when Rocky Balboa pulled in $70 million at the domestic box office. Perhaps lightning will strike twice here. I think this will do well, but not well enough to oust Cloverfield from the number one spot.
Why It Might Not Do Well: It's been 20 years since the last installment in the franchise, and younger moviegoers may not remember the character.
Number of Theaters: 2,800
Prediction: $17 million
What's It All About: A high-tech serial killer is murdering people on live internet video. The more people access the site, the faster the victim dies, and it's up to one FBI agent to stop this madman.
Why It Might Do Well: Everybody loves a good thriller, but to be honest, I don't think this one is going to qualify.
Why It Might Not Do Well: Premise seems a bit unbelievable and reminds me of a real turkey from a few years back called FeardotCom. The trailer for Untraceable has been kicking around the web for awhile, but I've seen no TV advertisements for this one.
Number of Theaters: 2,300
Prediction: $4 million
As I mentioned above, I'm betting Cloverfield holds onto the top spot for a second week, forcing Rambo into second place. Here's how I think it will play out.
1. Cloverfield
2. Rambo
3. 27 Dresses
4. How She Move
5. Meet the Spartans
And here's the results of our weekly competition. I'd be more inclined to gloat about my perfect score if I hadn't finished dead last the previous week. :) Thanks to everyone who participated.
1. Matt 16
2. Porcalina 13
3. Ray 12
4. Mike 11
4. mjd 11
5. sos 10
6. Anna07 9
6. Mario 9
7. Ethan Stanislawski 8
8. AJ Wiley 7
Will Rambo kick Cloverfield's keister? Will How She Move put Meet the Spartans in its place? You tell us. Post your predictions for the top five movies in the comments section below before 5:00PM on Saturday. One point for every top five movie correctly named, two points for every correct placement, and one extra point for the top movie.

Charteris joins Welsh contingent at Racing Metro
1:24pm Friday 6th June 2014 in Sport
WALES lock Luke Charteris has signed for Racing Metro on a two-year deal, writes Chris Kirwan.
The former Newport Gwent Dragons skipper, who made 142 appearances over nine seasons before leaving Rodney Parade in 2012, heads to Paris from Perpignan following the Stade Aime Giral side's relegation from the Top 14.
Charteris will add to his 46 caps against South Africa this month before joining fellow Welshmen Dan Lydiate, Mike Phillips and Jamie Roberts in the French capital.
Racing have also snapped up former Cardiff Blues centre Casey Laulala, France full-back Brice Dulin, Cheetahs pair Johan Gossen and Antonie Claassen and exciting Biarritz wing Teddy Thomas.
Meanwhile, the Scarlets have signed former Wales Under-20s number eight Rory Pitman.
The 24-year-old from Bridgend, who came through the Ospreys academy, made five appearances last season for London Wasps.
Scarlets head coach Simon Easterby said: "Rory is a strong ball-carrying number 8 but is still very young for a back-row forward and we believe he brings with him quality attributes that will help strengthen the pack for next season.
"We have a very experienced back row at the Scarlets with players of international quality. They have developed and strengthened well together over the last few seasons and guys like Rob McCusker and Josh Turnbull have worked extremely hard to cover the 8 position, playing out of their natural positions.
"He will join an experienced back row at Parc y Scarlets but will also bring a fresh outlook as we continue to build on the strong performances seen by the pack this season."
Pitman joins captain McCusker, Scotland flanker John Barclay, Wales international Aaron Shingler and sevens ace James Davies in the back row and the Scarlets are closing in on another specialist number eight.

Are You My Mother? (1960)
by P. D. Eastman
Compact | Rate recommendations
No current Talk conversations about this book.
This is one of my favorite books to read to my children and is a must read for my 2 year old son at least a few times a week. Through this short piece, you will follow a baby bird as he has hatched just a little early and sets off to find his mother. In the end, he knows her when he finds her. It is such a sweet story that always gets me a few extra hugs at the end.
Summary: This book is about a baby bird that is trying to find his mother. The baby bird hatched while his mother was out finding food so he did not know what his mother looked like. He went from place to place asking various animals and inanimate objects if they were his mother. He finally gets put back into his nest by a crane and his mother returns.
Personal Reaction: I love this book, because this book was read to me when I was a child. It is a fun book to read and be read to.
Classroom Extensions: 1) I could read this book to the children and then have them draw a picture of their mother and describe her. 2) I could do a lesson over what to do when you get lost. Teach them not to talk to strangers.
This classic story tells the tale of a baby bird who hatches from his egg to find himself all alone in the nest. He goes out to seek his mother, stopping all kinds of animals and vehicles along the way, finding that none of them is his mother. Just when he starts to despair, he is reunited with his parent. The text has lots of repetition, which young children love and makes reading long books easier for beginning readers. The little bird's quest is both sweet and silly, as he is so confused as to think a boat is his mother. The text calls for some interaction with the occasional question thrown out toward the audience. The illustrations perfectly fit the story, serving as good context clues for beginner readers as well as young listeners. While this book is geared more for older kids, I found that some of the toddlers in my class enjoyed this longer version of the book; in fact, a couple of them demanded to hear it over and over again!
In this classic tale, a baby bird hatches from an egg to find himself all alone. He sets out to find his mother, meeting various animals along the way who are not her before finally being reunited with his mother. This board book version tightens up the story, removing some of the things that the baby bird mistakes for his mother and reducing the repetitive language, in order to make the book shorter for a younger audience. I read this book to my toddler class, and it seemed to be the perfect length for them. This is a great way to introduce a classic to a younger audience who will hopefully grow to recognize the cover of the longer book and read that book as well when they are older.
The book Are You My Mother? by P.D Eastman has always been one of my childhood favorites. I enjoy this book due to the plot line and the illustrations. This modern fantasy tells the tale of a little bird who is in search of their mother after hatching. Although this story simply tells the journeys of a little baby bird in search of his mother, the overall main idea is the feeling of belonging to someone or something. I enjoyed how the little bird traveled from place to place encountering various characters, in which he presumed was his mother. This is an example from the plot line that I enjoyed. I also enjoyed the wonderful simplistic, yet effective illustrations used throughout. The way the mother bird and baby bird are depicted is very cute and relate able.

Amazon.com Amazon.com Review (ISBN 0394800184, Hardcover)This is the classic from which many of our staff first learned to read, starting us on a path of unremitting bibliophilia. Are You My Mother? follows a confused baby bird who's been denied the experience of imprinting as he asks cows, planes, and steam shovels the Big Question. In the end he is happily reunited with his maternal parent in a glorious moment of recognition.
