Two people are facing charges in a robbery where two men, including one of the suspects, were shot in the chest early Friday at a suburban Harrisburg hotel.
Swatara Township police said they will charge Mario Rudolpha Shockley, 25, and Brittany Elizabeth Pitts, 23, both of York, with robbery, aggravated assault, and felon not to possess a firearm.
Police said the victim of the robbery turned up at the Capital Diner, at 800 Eisenhower Boulevard, shortly after 1 a.m. and reported that he had been robbed at the Rodeway Inn, at 631 Eisenhower Boulevard.
The victim, who was not identified, also told officers he has a gun permit and had shot the man who was robbing him, police said. Shockley then fired back and hit the victim.
Authorities said the victim had gone to the motel to meet Pitts, a prostitute, for sex.
"That individual arrived believing he was arriving there for that purpose," District Attorney Ed Marsico said. "When he was robbed by the two individuals, the gun was pointed at him."
Police said they stopped Pitts as she was driving away from the Rodeway Inn and found Shockley hiding in the back of the vehicle.
He was transported to Penn State Hershey Medical Center, where the victim was also being treated for his wounds, police said.

Hosted by
an interview with PATRICK LAMB: on honoring STEVIE WONDER (and a jimmy mak's tribute!)
Portland-based Patrick Lamb, on Friday the 17th of February, will be honouring the greatest- STEVIE WONDER- at Jimmy Mak's (at both 7:30 and 10 pm)!!! To make the evening even more special, Nate Watts and Tyrone Hendrix (STEVIE'S bassist and drummer, respectively) will be there to bring their joy... Here, we speak with Mr. Lamb about the show and those who are involved; as well as what STEVIE means to him, amongst other things.
from patricklamb.com:
"One of the best instrumentalists I've ever worked with.." ~Bobby Caldwell
"Patrick Lamb's playing and singing are simply fabulous!" ~Two–Time Grammy Winning Diane Schuur
Patrick is one of those extraordinary performers who combine raw talent, and energy with a singular ability to captivate an audience with his charm, sincerity and pure magnetism. His focus as a songwriter and performing artist is "Old School" R&B, Soul. He combines the influences of Funk, Soul, R&B, and a flavor of Jazz to create his own unique sound as a performer and a songwriter.
Born in Jackson, Mississippi, Patrick began paying his dues by playing roadhouse music as a teenager in the rural south when he heard the evocative sounds of James Brown, Stevie Wonder, Ray Charles, and Wilton Felder, of the Crusaders. He immersed himself in the music of these great artists and began to discover his own sound as both a musician and performer. In the eighties his father, a high school science teacher, took the family to Portland, Oregon. Once there, Patrick's playing and singing were developing into a formidable career, which began at the early age of 16. Although having lived in the NW, Patrick found a way to infuse his southern roots and influences into his development as a musician, songwriter and performer.
Patrick accepted early on in his career, in the 90's, the opportunity to perform and tour with Concord Recording Artist & GRAMMY -winner Diane Schuur. In addition to touring with Ms. Schuur, he recently joined legendary R&B vocalists Bobby Caldwell and Gino Vannelli to tour worldwide. Patrick has been honored with numerous awards starting with an acclaimed best soloist performance at the Lionel Hampton Jazz Festival, resulting in a performance with Lionel Hampton. He has won 3 Muddy awards voted on by the NW music community, and recently was a finalist in the Rockstar Mix It Up contest. In addition, to his music based awards, Patrick's production company was given the Spirit of Portland & the Caring Heart award for his contributions giving back to the community. In 1996 and 1997 Patrick was invited to perform at the White House during the holiday Congressional VIP Tours and was in attendance at "The Peace on Earth Celebration," leading to a meeting with President Clinton. Patrick has been solidly and consistently recognized by his peers and community as a world class talent.
Over the past few years Patrick has been focusing on his own recording career as both a songwriter and performer. He recently completed five studio albums and produced an award winning show "Let The Good Times Roll, A Tribute To Ray Charles." A Tribute To Ray Charles, debuted at the 2005 Safeway Waterfront Blues Festival and the 15 piece big band All-star group released a CD produced by Lamb at the 2006 festival during the tributes encore performance. The tribute has received stellar reviews both regionally and nationally, and the show opened the 2007-08 Oregon Symphony Pops season.
Patrick completed work on his latest solo project, 'Soul Of A Free Man' which was released, in Spring 2007. Patrick's new solo vocal CD bridges together his love of Funk, "Old School" R&B, Soul, Jazz and his southern roots. This CD was co-written with long time friend, singer-songwriter Lee Garrett, whose songwriting credits include 'Sign Sealed Delivered,' 'Isn't She Lovely,' 'I Just Called To Say I Love You' and more!
In addition to these two projects Patrick finished work on a vocal duet and instrumental CD with nine-time Emmy award winning producer John Henry, and three-time Emmy nominated singer songwriter Patsy Meyer. This project was released in late Spring of 2007. Patrick's final release in 2007 was with Michael Allen Harrison titled "At Midnight."
Patrick has appeared on other recordings with Gino Vannelli, Jeff Lorber, Tom Grant, Eddie Martinez, Dave Weckel, Nathan East, Ricky Lawson, 'Little John' Roberts, Alex Al, Bill Cunliffe, Tony Madian, Curt Bisquera, Herman Jackson, Mel Brown, Marlon McClain, Nate Phillips, The Crazy 8's, George Mitchell, Dan Balmer, Paul deLay, John Raymond, Paul Jackson Jr., Tony Gable, and many others.
Patrick also demonstrates a deep sense of community awareness and civic responsibility. He has performed for numerous fund- raisers to raise consciousness about the loss of funding for the arts in public schools. In addition, he has been involved with major civic efforts to raise money for the America Diabetes Association, Oregon Food Bank, the American Cancer Society, Doernbecher Children's Hospital, The Christie School, ALS Association of Oregon and SW Washington. One can't help but be moved by the huge heart of this young man as it comes though in his civic awareness…and in his exuberant energy to entertain and uplift people.

interview with alexyss k. tylor, of vpowerTV (part one)!!!
what exactly can one say about alexyss k tylor, without stumbling into utter cliche or travelling into euphemism (for those 'sensitive' folk)? the truth is, you have to meet her to figure out a word for yourself.
at all points undefinable and inimitable by ANY basic term, atlanta, georgia-based ms. alexyss k tylor is not one who plays around. you have got to get your act (and your words) together when speaking with her. even with someone like me who does radio, admittedly this is not always easy. one interview with this laconic (and ICONIC, to a growing number of people) woman is never going to capture her range- the humor, the warmth, and the love for what she does. what you ALWAYS get though, is her brand of truth and conviction. some may see it as brash, vulgar or 'politically incorrect' but it is a truth she stands firm in. and that is phenomenally admirable.
known mostly as a 'sex guru', ms. tylor is the author of 'spiritual sexuality' and 'vagina power' (which is also the name of the movement she has prompted); she also has a(n) (inter)nationally-recognized television program. she speaks candidly about spiritual sexuality, as well as political issues affecting us.
this is from alexyss' youtube page:
"She is the author of spiritual sexuality vagina power, as well as a talk show host of VPOWER with Alexyss K Tyler!!! She talks about spiritual sexuality vagina power, penis power, sperm power. so many women are used, abused and really misunderstand the power of sex and the beauty of the vagina. we are a sacred temple of divine creation and i am so honored to be a woman and so honored by the women that want to learn about the power of our body. teaches about sex chakras, the auric field and how to use them to reach ultimate orgasms."
at the end of the interview (part 2), ms. tylor has mentioned ways to contact her.
if you have never seen any videos of this stunningly beautiful woman, i suggest you check them out... as i said, there are no words i could write here that would even describe her.
all i will say is that it was an honor to speak with her.

Chris (guest for 9-10-09)
Hi Jamilah,
Loved the show tonight - I was really struck by Chris' story and how ridiculously the Portland police handled his situation. It makes me concerned for the future of civic-minded organizations like Copwatch and NoPo Cop Stop which exist to do exactly what Chris was doing - observe & record police conduct and provide that record as a defense to the people who police accuse of wrongdoing.
Would it be possible for KBOO to post tonight's show or, at least, the fifteen minutes that Chris spoke about his encounter with Portland police on your webpage or myspace page? I would be very interested to listen to it again and pass it along to my friends at Copwatch, if that is okay. I believe the segment ranged between 8:45 pm - 9:00 pm. Please feel free to e-mail me with a response - it would be great to hear from you. Thank you very much for your help, and keep up the excellent work!
Hey I love motown and motown history and it is sorta at the top of my list of interests right now, so if I wanted to offer some insight into your upcoming program, what is the protocol? Is there any way to get involved?
yes, i am actually planning to do another show on motown; i didn't get to fit everything i wanted to fit into the show... my plan is to do something in april. i would like to go more in depth about what i was touching on in the last show... is it possible for a 'person of colour' to be successful in america and not sacrifice or compromise their beliefs? i want to do more in-depth conversations/interviews about that.
i am constantly welcoming people to get involved and have some input for the show, so that is wonderful that you are interested!!! what sorts of things were you thinking about?
speak soon,

So, what are the ingredients?
Pick a game that belongs in your GOGmix from the list, or find it by typing something in the text field. Relevance is key here - Earthworm Jim doesn't quite fit the "Sexiest heroines of all time" bill now, does it?
Justify your choice... Or not!
OK, so it's not required, but now that you went through the trouble of adding a game, telling everyone why you did it would be a nice finishing touch. After you're done here, add another game, rinse, repeat.

The U.S. Department of Energy's Oak Ridge National Laboratory on Monday completed the deployment of a 20-petaflop supercomputer called Titan, which the lab hopes will give the U.S. an edge over China and Japan in the race to build the world's fastest computers.
The supercomputer, deployed at ORNL facilities in Tennessee, is capable of processing 20,000 trillion calculations per second. The supercomputer is more than 10 times faster than its predecessor called Jaguar, which was deployed in 2009 and was considered the world's fastest supercomputer in June 2010 until it was dethroned a few months later by a Chinese supercomputer called Tianhe-1A at the National Supercomputer Center in Tianjin.
[ Keep up on the day's tech news headlines with InfoWorld's Today's Headlines: Wrap Up newsletter. ]
Titan's deployment comes just a few weeks ahead of the release of the Top500, which lists the 500 fastest supercomputers in the world. The fastest supercomputer in the Top500 list released in June this year was Sequoia, an IBM BlueGene/Q system deployed by the U.S. DOE at the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory in Livermore, California.
"American competitiveness is very important from a global security and national security perspective," said Jeffrey Nichols, associate laboratory director for the computing and computational sciences directorate at ORNL, in an interview. "It's absolutely important that we are competitive in this high-tech field so the science solutions we are solving are competitive and put us on the leading edge of where we need to be in solving these problems."
Countries such as Japan and China are swiftly scaling their computing capabilities with supercomputers in the top five, Nichols said. But the U.S. makes more effective use of available computing power to solve some of the top science problems in the country, Nichols said.
"If you look at Oak Ridge and what we bring to the table is that we have application developers that can use these machines at scale. China cannot. They have an economic development model that says we'll put this hardware on the floor and people can come in and pay for using the machine in order to do their scientific research," Nichols said.
ORNL welcomes proposals from scientists and 40 projects are selected every year to use computing facilities in the lab. The proposals are selected on merit by scientific experts, but also by ensuring the applications are scalable so resources are not wasted. Scientists using Titan don't have to pay for usage.
More computing power boosts knowledge discovery, and helps in more realistic simulation and experiments, Nichols said, adding that Titan will help the U.S. in research areas like biosciences, climate, energy and space.
For example, ORNL conducts research on neutron sciences, which includes the building of combustion engines that deliver lower emissions and higher efficiency. Those experiments are related to the country's economy, environment and national security, and faster supercomputers like Titan are advancing research quicker in that area, Nichols said.
Titan is a Cray XK7 supercomputer, which pairs 18,688 Advanced Micro Devices 16-core Opteron 6274 CPUs with 18,688 Nvidia Tesla K20 GPUs (graphics processing units). Graphics processors provide faster execution of some scientific and math applications, while CPUs are better for serial processing. By harnessing the joint computing power of CPUs and GPUs, supercomputers are able to provide results in the most power-efficient way, said Steve Scott, chief technology officer of the Tesla product line at Nvidia.

Antonio Silva was not happy tonight, but not for the reasons you'd think. Yes he lost and in brutal fashion, and while some may say the stoppage was premature, that's not the tack he's taking. When asked about the stoppage at the post fight presser, Antonio Silva went on the record to say he felt the strikes that ended the fight were illegal, and referees should start bearing the blame for poor showings.
When asked if Bigfoot had anything to say about the stoppage, Dana White quickly chimed in:
"Yes he does, I've been hearing about it."
Bigfoot then went on to say, exactly what he felt about the referees performance, and where he felt the fight went wrong.
"I do agree that the fight was stopped to early. My way of thinking that the way athletes are penalized when they do something wrong should be applied to referees when they do something wrong."
"I don't want to say too much, I just want you to watch the fight. I took several illegal blows to the back of my neck. The way the referee explained it, the first low blow should be a warning, the second should be penalized. If you watch I took several illegal blows to the back of my neck."
Dana white added insult to injury piling on with suggestions that Yamasaki, given his small frame should never have been given the fight.
"The smallest referee on the planet refereeing the two biggest fighters on the planet. Any time it's a big fight, everything on the line, I like to see guys like Herb Dean in there."
"When you've got a guy this tall (White holds his hand out about shoulder height) refereeing two big fighters, it just makes no common sense at all."
I don't know that I saw anything terribly heinous in the end of the fight, it was a tad early maybe, but that's not what Silva is arguing here. If Gabriel Gonzaga couldn't get his fight against Travis Browne overturned, I can't see Bigfoot's argument gaining much ground. As for Dana calling out Yamasaki over his size, it's a really weird deflection. Essentially he's not saying that Yamasaki actually did anything wrong, or that the fight was actually stopped poorly, but merely that Yamasaki is too small to be an effective ref for heavyweight fights.
I can't think of anything that actually reinforces this position in UFC history, and picking refs based on bigness rather than skill seems like it would have very little long term potential as a promotional management strategy. I have to assume for the moment that White was just looking to deflect the topic and agree with his fighter's stance, without actually agreeing or suggesting he deserved a rematch. At least I certainly hope so, because if not it's just absurd.

By MICHAEL WANBAUGH
Allan Kauffman grew up in Goshen, graduated from Goshen High School and later Goshen College. He got married, raised a family here and worked many years in the office supply business, all while serving multiple terms on Goshen's City Council.
Sixteen years ago he was appointed mayor and has since won re-election four times. During those 16 years Kauffman has become active in the Indiana Association of Cities and Towns and has played a large role in advocating the interests of municipalities in the Statehouse.
To him, Goshen is a special place that he has dedicated his life to making stronger and better.
"I have always said that if Goshen is going to grow, we need to be a community that we're proud of," Kauffman said recently while sitting in his office inside the former Carnegie Library on South Fifth Street. "In 20 years I hope Goshen is a place that people who live here are proud to call home. Same as today."
Challenges ahead
As part of The Goshen News' special "Who We Are" publication in today's paper, we asked Kauffman to talk about what he would like Goshen to look like 20 years from now. He is optimistic about the potential, but also realistic about the challenges associated with continued growth.
"Honestly," he said, "it's going to be a lot harder to take care of ourselves over the next 20 years as it has been the past 20 years."
Kauffman pointed toward reduced property tax incomes as a result of property tax caps implemented several years ago by the Indiana Legislature. City officials have been adjusting ever since to make ends meet without sacrificing city services.
It hasn't been easy, he said, and new solutions need to be considered in the future.
"We've scrimped along and done some things to cope with the curves we've been thrown the last few years, but the trick bag is running empty," Kauffman explained. "We don't have many tricks left short of cutting services."
Politically speaking, Kauffman believes Goshen needs to adopt a trash collection fee in the future to help subsidize the $750,000 it costs annually for the city to provide that service currently paid from property taxes. Kauffman would also like the community to have the opportunity to discuss a food and beverage tax, something the state allows counties bordering Indianapolis to have, but not other counties.
Kauffman calls that a "fairness issue," and believes slower-growth communities outside the immediate orbit of Indy could use that type of revenue even more.
Quality of life
The refrain in Kauffman's consistent community homily is easy to detect: Quality of life. Kauffman believes that bike trails, public parks and a vibrant downtown are all key elements that will bring people to Goshen and keep them here to raise families.
"I would hope 20 years from now we have things developed like Fidler's Park," Kauffman said. "… I would hope that we would have a community center 20 years from now. … I would hope we have (newly developed) housing along the millrace. … I would hope we will have broken the cycle of people not valuing an education."
Up until recently, the immigration into Goshen was from other states, not other countries, Kauffman explained. Those were the days when the coal mining jobs were drying up in the Appalachian states and the mobile home industry was flourishing in Elkhart County.
"People could swing a hammer or get a job at Goshen Rubber or Western Rubber without a high school education and make a living," Kauffman explained. "Those jobs even paid enough that one parent could work and support the family. But many of those people didn't have an education, therefore didn't value it for their kids. Now those jobs aren't here. So, how are we going to break that cycle?
"You can't work a job in Goshen anymore unless you have a high school education."
Kauffman hopes the Horizon Education Initiative will be an efficient bridge from high school to higher education to the workplace in the future. The objective of the initiative is integrate those three aspects to better serve students and the community. Again, better education, Kauffman says, leads to better quality of life.
Keep on pushing
Kauffman also envisions in the future a restructured downtown. With the potential rerouting of U.S. 33 through a "northern connector" route and by moving Ind. 15 to Third Street (reconnecting with Main Street at Madison), he sees the downtown stretch of Main Street being reduced from four to two lanes, angled (possibly reversed) parking and more outdoor dining options.
Goshen has come a long way with its quality of life, Kauffman said. But as far as it has come, he believes now is a critical time in determining where it is going.
"We've been fortunate to have a younger generation stepping up at the right time," Kauffman said. "We have to keep stretching ourselves. We're not going to move forward by saying, 'No,' all the time."

After a deliberating for less than an hour, a Texas jury found Wendell Loy Nielsen, a lieutenant of polygamist leader Warren Jeffs, guilty of three counts of bigamy. He faces up to 10 years in prison for each count.
Nielsen was accused of marrying three women in 2006 when they were 43, 58 and 65.
Nielsen, 71, is one of a dozen men with the Fundamentalist Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints charged with bigamy after the 2008 raid of the sect's Yearning for Zion Ranch in Eldorado, Texas. The sect, which has about 10,000 followers, broke off with the Mormon church in the 1880s over whether to ban polygamy.
Prosecutors said in opening arguments that Nielsen violated Texas bigamy laws because he lived with more than one woman and claimed to be married to them all. He allegedly had 35 wives, although he was charged with just three counts of bigamy.
The issue put to the jury of five women and seven men was whether "spiritual" or "celestial" marriages are true marriages under Texas law. Bigamy, rarely charged in the United States, is illegal in most western countries. Most cases involve someone marrying someone in the U.S., unaware that their marriage in a previous country was still valid.
Defense lawyer David Botsford said the state could not prove that celestial marriage violates the law, as usually only the first wife has a marriage license.
"Apply the law and the facts that the judge gives you," Botsford said. "Those marriages are spiritual unions."
Of the dozen male members of the sect were charged, 10 were convicted including Warren Jeffs. Jeffs was sentenced to life plus 20 years in prison for sexually assaulting a 12-year-old he took in as a bride in what his church deemed a "spiritual marriage." Ten of those men have been convicted.
Tony Gutierrez / AP
Polygamist sect leader Warren Jeffs was sentenced to life in prison plus 20 years after being found guilty of sexually assaulting a 12-year-old girl he took in as a bride.
Jeffs is now in protective custody at a prison in Palestine, Texas. He still exerts his authority and sends out prophetic messages to public officials. He has also taken out advertisements in newspapers throughout the country.
Nielsen had been the president of the sect's corporation in Utah until Jeffs took over again in 2011.

Lancashire drink drive figures fall
5:00pm Sunday 26th January 2014 in News
MORE than 200 people were caught drink driving in Lancashire during the Christmas period.
A total of 17,400 tests were administered throughout the month of December, with 202 people failing the test and 19 people refusing to provide a specimen.
During the police's Christmas drink drive campaign, 18,964 tests were administered with 281 people failing the test or refusing to provide a specimen.
Chief Insp Debbie Howard said: "It is pleasing to see the number of people drink driving on Lancashire's roads has reduced.
"I hope that the message is getting through to people that drink driving is extremely dangerous and the consequences are high.
"A total of 221 people caught drink driving is still too many though.
"We are not complacent and will continue to carry out regular enforcement to take action against those who continue to break the law."
Lancashire Police and Crime Commissioner Clive Grunshaw said: "People who choose to drink and drive are not only putting their own lives in serious danger, they are risking the lives of everyone around them.
"The evidence is clear that you're many times more likely to cause a crash if you're over the limit than a driver who hasn't been drinking."

I personally think it should be 202 drivers that should be licence free an on a restricted holiday (HMP).It's probably more a revenue thing than a stop drink drivers.

But-the percentage of those found is similar to the percentage caught in stop and search-which is being reviewed.
Just saying!

If you can't fix it with a hammer, you've got an electrical problem.
My wife says I don't listen to her. - - - - - - - - Or something like that!
Mike Murowski had a big ole Maple tree with a lot of rot in it. It was near his garage. and he was afraid of a storm blowing it onto the garage. We started to cut it about 10 foot up. Mike had a ford 2700 tractor he lashed to the tree. He was far enough away. his plan was to pull the tree the direction he wanted it to fall. Helen his wife and another lady stood near the garage to watch. I stopped cutting and told them to move. They were quite put out and didn't want to move. After some discussion that got quite heated. (I don't talk to ladies like that unless it is life and death) They moved.
Well rotted trees have a mind of their own. The tree started to fall ok, then took a sudden turn as it fell. The tractor was jerked 5 foot in the air and landed 10 feet from where it had been. The tree landed where Helen had been standing. I was forgiven for the harsh words. It landed a little over 90 degrees from the planned location. That was over 25 years ago. Both Helen and Mike are gone now but I have never forgotten the lesson. Any time you think you are far enough away you are not go back anothe 50 feet or more.
What gets me is the guy in the picture is smiling.

I'm sure we all have had our own close calls with trees. As for me, it was leaning up hill so thats where I cut it to fall. Well, it rocked back and fell downhill. The good news is that it took out a barbed wire fence we've been meaning to remove anyway! Just be careful everybody.

somewhere close to 20 years ago, after a hurricane took power out all over our area, my partner and his dad decided to remove a tree that was in the front yard. power was out. i arrived on an unrelated mission as they were cutting, and recall commenting that their planned fall zone didn't match what the tree was planning. they proceeded anyway.
power wire (dead) was attached to the house. tree and power wire met, power wire was abruptly removed from the house. i should also comment that the power wire was fed from a pole on the other side of the street, a fairly busy 50mph road.
at this moment, a US postal truck was motoring down the road. the power wire dropped to the road in front of him, he passed over it, and then the wire wrapped itself around the rear axle.
looked like a fighter jet landing on an aircraft carrier! man was that dude surprised. once it stopped and rolled backward a few feet, we of course went to see how he was. no injuries, no apparent damage to the post office jeep.
very lucky that day.

shame the original URL doesn't seem to work or it's me, can anyone find it again?
Will see if I can find another one. It is a practically new customized pickup with a tree about 3 feet in diameter laying across the bed, with the truck totally mashed to the ground and destroyed. there is a guy standing in the back with a stupid look on his face, and holding a chainsaw.
