Police say a daycare teacher in Paulding County tried to hire someone to kill her ex-husband.Authorities say 48-year-old Melissa Bennett Silvers, a mother of two and teacher at Lost Mountain Academy Daycare, is charged with conspiracy to commit murder after allegedly concocting a murder-for-hire plot.Silvers allegedly talked with an undercover agent several times over the course of two weeks about the plot.
"Melissa, through her contacts, made contact with an undercover agent who posed as a hit man," said Detective Donny Pace of the Paulding County Sheriff's Office.
She met the agent in the parking lot of a Dallas business on Dec. 13 and paid a portion of the agreed upon price for the hit, police said. She was arrested the next day at the daycare.Police say the plot involved the agent pretending to be a firewood delivery person who would have shot and killed Silvers' ex-husband outside of his home. Authorities said that Silvers was insistent that the murder take place outside.
"Melissa wanted it outside so the cleanup could be easier," said Pace.Silvers and her ex-husband were divorced in January 2012, but he allowed her to live in his home because of their adopted children, police said. Police have not determined a motive behind the murder plot.Silvers is currently being held without bond in the Paulding County Detention Center.

How much does the Nurse Aide course cost?
The course fee is $495. This includes the textbook and the state written and clinical competency exams.
Do I need a high school diploma or GED?
No. Understand, however, that there is a great deal of reading and studying involved with this class. A person needs to maintain an 80 percent average to pass the course.
Does Clarkson College offer financial aid?
We do not because it is not a college credit course, although many community organizations and state back-to-work agencies do offer assistance. Because their requirements differ, it is up to the individual to research what is available for him or her.
How long does it take to complete?
Class dates and times vary. It is important to consult a class schedule for details. Daytime classes take approximately three to four weeks to complete. Evening classes take approximately six to seven weeks to complete.
What are the prerequisites?
The requirements to participate are that a person be 16 years of age and be able to speak and understand English. Individuals are required to have proof of a current TB skin test prior to clinical session and are to be healthy and able to lift 50 pounds.
Do I need to buy a special uniform for clinical?
Yes. In Omaha you will need navy blue scrubs for clinical sessions.
Do I have to go elsewhere to take the state competency exams?
No. Both the state of Nebraska written competency examination and the skills examinations are offered at the end of each Clarkson College Nurse Aide course and are included in the course fees.
Where can I work when I am finished?
There are jobs available in nursing homes, assisted living centers, group homes, hospitals, clinics and home health agencies.
Do you help with job placement?
We can provide you with information regarding The Nebraska Medical Center (University and Clarkson Hospitals), but it is up to you to apply for the jobs you are interested in.

Inquest opens into death of Alresford woman
11:00am Tuesday 5th February 2013 in News By Joseph Curtis
AN inquest has opened after an Alresford woman died in a car crash last week.
Kathryn Hunt, 35, of Jacklyns Lane, Alresford, was killed after her silver Renault Clio collided with a green Ford Mondeo in Twinley Lane, Whitchurch, on January 28 at around 6.45am.
The inquest was opened by Coroner for North East Hampshire Andrew Bradley on January 31.
A spokesman for the coroner's office said she suffered multiple injuries in the accident but the cause of her death was still being investigated, pending toxicology and histology tests.
The driver of the Mondeo, Roland Holliehead, 65, of Wincanton, Somerset, was also killed in the crash.
A full inquest into both deaths will be resumed on May 1 at Alton Magistrates' Court.

Log management review: Trustwave SIEM
Trustwave's SIEM-in-one-appliance provides a great deal of functionality for the priceFollow @rogeragrimes
Trustwave's main competitive advantage is combining SIEM (security information and event management) and log management in one, relatively cheap appliance. While many vendors have begun bringing SIEM and log management functionality together, few do it as affordably as Trustwave -- though you'll generally need to look beyond the starting prices to see it.
The Trustwave SIEM appliance (formerly Intellitactics SAFE LP) has a relatively quick and easy initial setup, which includes setting the IP address and uploading a licensing file. There are five sizes of the appliance to choose from. My 1U test unit came with dual processors, dual power supplies, 10GB of RAM, 4TB of RAID5 disk space, and four Ethernet interfaces. It boots starting with rPath Linux. Booting was noticeably slower than competing appliances, often taking five minutes before I could log on to the management console.
Trustwave SIEM: Log collection and management
The HTTPS management console contains three main tabs (Admin, SAFE, and Favorites) under which all the options are contained. The Admin tab is used to configure the device and log management options. The SAFE section is used to view collected information and to run reports. The Favorites option allows you to quickly access commonly used views, dashboards, and graphics. Every page and option is covered by easily accessible help files, although the help files' explanations of the options could be improved. The interface and documentation still contain some of the Intellitactics branding left over from Trustwave's purchase.

Choose our hotels in Kuwait City to marvel at the calls to prayer from the Grand Mosque and join the spirited bargaining at the city's open-air souks.
You won't have far to travel from our hotels in Kuwait City to admire the ornate carvings of the stately Grand Mosque. The National Museum nearby is a free collection of historic treasures that includes artifacts from pre-Islamic civilizations. From here you can see two distinctly different architectural styles—the opulent Seif Palace and the rustic Bayt Al-Badr, a relic from old Kuwait that stands out in this contemporary urban landscape. Our Kuwait City hotels are close to the futuristic minarets of Kuwait Towers, emblem of the city and a fine place to survey the city from 400 feet up. Families flock to Entertainment City, Kuwait City's answer to Disneyland, where themed parks include Arab World and its homage to Sinbad.
From our Kuwait City hotels, you'll be close to the city's bustling souks (open-air markets), where merchants sell fish plucked from the Arabian Sea and fresh mutton. Look for finely crafted gold and tribal rugs from Afghanistan—and hone your haggling skills in the bargain. Our hotels in Kuwait City are near Salmiya, a district of shops offering traditional crafts and bakeries selling piping hot loaves of bread. Many cafes in this district offer shisha (hookah tobacco). Kuwait's multicultural side comes out at night, when musicians strumming the Arabic oud are often accompanied by North Indian tabla drums.
Book a room in our Holiday Inn® Kuwait City hotels in February to celebrate Hala, a festival of dancing and patriotic parades. Any time is right for wandering the shoreline of the Arabian Sea, bargaining in a souk or touring the Grand Mosque.

Coach's Email Week #1
Hello to everyone. First of all, thank you for all of your support. Each week, time permitting, I will try to give you an update via email. In this email, I will address the past week (practice and game) and my plan/goals for the upcoming week.
Week one was super fun and great getting back on the pitch. We have a very strong group of 16 boys. Kate and I discussed the best way to handle 16 boys and we have come up with a plan. We split the boys into 2 teams. When we split these teams, we did it in a fashion so that we have two very strong teams. They are not set in stone. As the season progresses, if we need to make changes, we will. Both of these teams will practice together. During league play, each team will have a game scheduled for Saturday. When we attend tournaments, we will mix and match the teams so that the boys have some different opportunities to play and make memories with different kids. We are currently looking for co-coach that will be a great fit to our team. I anticipate that coach helping us very soon. Also, we will be getting some help from older players in the area. Going forward, I see lots of playing time for each boy and plenty of opportunity for each boy to improve his skills.
Practice…Our main focus this past week was getting ball touches. We also, concentrated on different ways the boys can communicate on the field. It's important that the boys get used to our practice format. Each week we will try 4 or 5 different drills. We will introduce 2 new drills a week. By mid September, I hope the boys have some favorite drills and we can use those more often. The drills we are introducing are very versatile. Meaning, given what we are trying to accomplish, I might change some of the parameters of the drill to teach the boys different skills. Yet the basics of the drill will be understood so the boys wont get too confused.
I wish we could have played on Saturday. Thanks to everyone for showing up nice and early so I could get some pictures. Obviously, it was not safe to play.
This week…we will continue our goals to have the boys touch the ball and begin to get back into soccer shape. I am hoping to also spend some time encouraging some new friendships. It is very important to me that our boys recognize that they are a team and what that means on and off the field.
Each week I will send the boys home with a skill they can practice at home. Thursday I instructed the boys to practice a certain drill at home. I look forward to learning who did so. A big difference will be made with your sons skills while playing at home. Whether that is alone or with family and friends it is important to gain the confidence that comes from mastering a certain soccer skill. Plus, it is just plain fun!
Thanks again for your support. I look forward to getting to know each and everyone of you better. Please feel free to contact me with any concern or suggestion. In addition, I will be available to you after practice.
John LeSage

After winning the NL West, the Dodgers will face the Mets in the NLCS.
With 10 scoreless inning in San Diego, one legendary Dodgers right-handed pitcher joined another 25 years ago.
The Dodgers pitched two shutouts against the Astros, won once against the Padres and took two of three games against the Giants during the week, and clinched at least a tie for the National League...
Orel Hershiser's fifth straight shutout was against the Giants and was helped by a controversial call, just like Don Drysdale's fifth straight shutout in 1968.
Hershiser wins his 22nd, beating Astros 1-0. Hershiser's season record against Houston was 4-1 with a 1.80 ERA in those 5 starts.
The Dodgers lowered their magic number to clinch the National League West to six. The only loss in the last week was a perfect game pitched by Tom Browning of the Reds.
The Dodgers ace won his career-high 21st game with his second win over the Braves in 10 days. Against Atlanta on the season, Hershiser is 5-0 with a 1.29 ERA in five starts.
The Dodgers hold a five-game divisional lead with 21, maybe 20 games left to play, depending on whether or not the team will need to make up the Sept. 4 rainout in New York.
One of the most iconic moments in baseball history was remembered on Tuesday at Dodger Stadium, nearly 25 full years after it happened.
Hershiser threw his second consecutive shutout to beat the Reds, and became the first right-handed pitcher to win 20 games for the Dodgers since Don Sutton in 1976. Hershiser's scoreless inning...

Memories of LinuxWorld Boston, 2005
Booths, tools, toys, conference sessions, and birds of a feather – this year's LinuxWorld provided few surprises. But a look beyond the routine revealed some emerging new perspectives on the state of Linux.
The Linux faithful gathered on February 7-10 for the East coast US LinuxWorld. Many worried that this year's move from New York to Boston would diminish the size or energy of the event, but most observers agreed that this year's show was as bustling as the last. Impressions This show looked like all the other recent Linux shows, but one could still get the impression that new things were happening in Linux – especially in the areas of the enterprise and the desktop, where the big vendors reached for new levels of acceptance. The shakedown of the high-tech market has made many of the more redundant tools go away. Every product at the show seemed to have a clear and recognizable purpose-- which is not how I recall the glory days – and this is probably an indication of health.

Topic: DPR006 Audrey Napoleon - Group Games w/ Frogs In Socks & Benjamin Vial
Listen & Buy at: BEATPORT
Supported by LAURENT GARNIER, CLAUDE VONSTROKE, ZOMBIE NATION and many more!!!
We welcome to Death Proof the true queen of the Los Angeles techno scene: Audrey Napoleon. This Hollywood femme fatale is trying her damned hardest to make sure people stop to take notice, and with a release of this calibre she's doing a mighty fine job of it!
Having released some of her filthiest techno via Circuit Freq's self titled label and a recent remix of D. Ramirez via the gargantuan Toolroom, we now take great pleasure in giving you her latest work: the rolling, twitching, orgasmic 'Group Games' and the melodic, minimalesque joint, 'Mission Sleep'.
On remix duties is the UK's funk-fuelled Frogs In Socks (Southern Fried, Phuture Trax); these guys are really coming on leaps & bounds (see what we did there?). Out comes the brass & keys on their remix of 'Mission Sleep', popping and jiving to make a real house classic!
And bringing up the rear, we've once again unleashed label owner Benjamin Vial; he's taken it down a couple of notches to give us a low slung, throbbing, bass-laden techno affair, with a respectful nod to old school house à la 'French Kiss'!

Summary Details
Summary: Cross-cultural pragmatics
|Fay Wouk
|Submitter Email:
|click here to access email
|Linguistic LingField(s):
A few weeks ago I posted the following query about cross-cultural variation in vagueness vs specificity of accounts.
I am interested in studies of the specificity or vagueness of accounts
given in support of other speech acts, such as apologies, requests, or
refusals. Bresnehan & Liao 1996 discuss this with respect to American
vs Taiwanese refusal strategies, and reference work by Takahashi &
Beebe. Is anyone aware of any other works that look at relative
frequency of specific vs vague accounts/explanations?
I received two responses.
Dr Simon Gieve suggested that one of the following papers might be relevant
Le Pair, R. (1996) Spanish request strategies: a cross-cultural analysis from an intercultural perspective. In: Jaszczolt, K. and Turner, K., (Eds.) Contrastive Semantics and Pragmatics: Vol 2 - Discourse Strategies, pp. 651-670. Oxford: Elsevier]
Mir, M. (1992) Do we all apologise the same? An empirical study on the act of apologising by Spanish speakers learning English. In: Bouton, L.F. and Kachru, Y., (Eds.) Pragmatics and language learning, pp. ?? Urbana, Illinois: University of Illinois]
Reiter, R.M. (1997) Sensitising Spanish learners of English to cultural differences: the case of politeness. In: Putz, M., (Ed.) pp. 143-156. Frankfurt am Main: Peter Lang ]
Walters, J. (1979) Strategies for requesting in Spanish and English - structural similarities and pragmatic differences. Language Learning 9, 277-294.
C?sar F?lix-Brasdefer referred me to his 2002 dissertation from the University of Minnesota, Refusals in Spanish and English: A Cross-Cultural Study of Politeness Strategies among Speakers of Mexican Spanish, American English, and American Learners of Spanish as a Foreign Language.
I am grateful for these two responses, but would still like to hear from anyone else who knows of additional references. If I receive more responses, I will post another summary.

King County sheriff's deputy fired over threats to news editor
In firing a 27-year veteran, King County Sheriff John Urquhart found that Deputy Patrick Saulet abused his authority by threatening to arrest the news editor of The Stranger while doing his job on public property.
Seattle Times staff reporter
A King County sheriff's deputy who threatened to arrest an editor for The Stranger weekly newspaper during a sidewalk confrontation in July has been fired by Sheriff John Urquhart.
Deputy Patrick Saulet, a 27-year veteran with a troubled disciplinary history, was terminated at the end of the business day Monday, according to Urquhart.
Urquhart found that Saulet "took exception" to Dominic Holden, The Stranger's news editor, lawfully doing his job on public property, according to a Jan. 30 disciplinary letter sent to Saulet.
Saulet became "agitated and confrontational" and essentially "squared off" with Holden, the letter said.
Holden wrote that he was riding his bike past Fourth Avenue South and South Jackson Street about 7:25 p.m. July 30 when he saw six law-enforcement officers surrounding a man seated on a planter box at a transit station. He said he took a photograph from a public sidewalk of Saulet, who told him to leave or risk arrest.
Holden filed complaints with the Sheriff's Office and the Seattle Police Department over the incident.
Last month, a Seattle police officer, John Marion, was suspended for a day without pay for acting unprofessionally during the incident.
Holden wrote that Marion threatened to harass him at his place of work.
Urquhart, citing evidence gathered in an internal investigation, found that Saulet abused his authority in his dealings with Holden and attempted to "recast events" in a more favorable light.
Contrary to Saulet's assertion that he engaged in a "social contact" in which he told Holden he couldn't ride his bike on King County Metro property, Saulet expressly or implicitly threatened to arrest Holden while incorrectly identifying public property as private property, Urquhart wrote in the letter.
"Your ill-advised actions also play to some of the most basic fears among some citizens, which is that a police officer may indiscriminately exercise his or her power in violation of their rights, because in the event of a complaint, the officer will just deny the allegation and 'circle the wagons' with his or her fellow officers on the expectation they will take care of their own," Urquhart wrote.
In Saulet's case, two deputies denied a statement in which Saulet asserted they also told Holden he couldn't ride on Metro property.
Urquhart also noted that the event was part of a "larger pattern" in Saulet's employment history.
Saulet was demoted from sergeant last year after Urquhart found he had harassed a family in a vehicle that had made a wrong turn into an area reserved for King County Metro Transit vehicles.
Overall, Urquhart wrote, Saulet had been the subject of about 120 allegations, with 21 sustained. Saulet had racked up more complaints on the force than any other King County deputy, according to a demotion letter previously obtained by The Stranger.
"You have been repeatedly told you need to improve your interaction with people, coached and counseled on methods for doing so, and warned of the potential consequences of further problems," Urquhart wrote in the Jan. 30 letter.
Saulet, whose positive contributions and courage were noted by Urquhart in the letter, may ask his union if it is willing to appeal to an arbitrator.
Holden said Monday he was pleased with what he called a "thorough investigation," the outcome of which "sends a clear message" that misconduct and abuse of civilian rights will not be tolerated.
He said the result ultimately strengthens the Sheriff's Office, because people can trust that deputies will be held to the same standard as the people they protect.

Baseball rallies for 6-5 win over Gardner-Webb in 12 innings
March 1, 2008
BOILING SPRINGS, N.C. - Senior shortstop Matt Lopez came up big for the Dolphins in two straight days while the Dolphin bullpen combined for 7.1 innings of shutout relief to lead the JU baseball team to a 6-5 win over Gardner-Webb in 12 innings, Saturday morning in game one of a doubleheader at Varsity Field.
JU (5-0, 2-0) rallied from a 5-2 deficit and held the Bulldogs without a run for 7.1 innings despite leaving 13 runners on base and committing four errors in the field.
GWU (3-4, 0-2) also left 13 runners on base but committed five errors in the contest.
With the score tied in the top of the 12th inning, junior catcher Brad Simmons drew a walk, stole second and then advanced to third on a wild pitch by Adam Bullard. Lopez followed with a single through a drawn-in infield on the right side to put the Dolphins back in the lead.
"This was a gut check game for our guys and we had a lot of people step up for us," said JU head coach Terry Alexander. "Gardner-Webb is a tough club at home and we not only rallied to tie it, but shut them down until we could find a way to win."
Freshman Matt Loosen (1-0) earned the win after allowing no runs on one hit one walk and four strikeouts in 2.2 innings of relief. Junior Billy Schlee notched his third save and second of the series after recording scoreless 12th.
Freshman Steve Eagerton also hurled 3.2 innings of scoreless relief to help extend the contest. Senior Matt Dobbins got a no-decision after allowing fived runs (four earned) on eight hits with a walk in 4.2 innings of work.
Bullard (1-1) was tagged with the loss after allowing four runs on five hits with two walks and two strikeouts in six innings. Webster Beal also got a no-decision after allowing two runs (one earned) on three with two walks and seven strikeouts in six innings of work.
Sophomore first baseman Alex Martinez led the Dolphins by going 2-for-5 with two RBI, including a two-run base hit to tie the contest in the seventh. Senior center fielder Kevin Ferreira and sophomore third baseman Tony Bernazard also finished with multiple hits for the Dolphins.
Matt Rizzuto finished 3-for-6 to lead the Bulldog offense while Daniel Cooke drove in a team-high two runs with a home run in the fifth.
JU took an early 1-0 lead in the top of the first inning when Ferreira scored from third on a fielding error with two outs. Ferreira reached on a dropped pop in the infield by Beal and then moved to second when Fleming drew a walk. After both runners advanced on a ground out to first, Martinez hit a chopper to third which was mishandled by Chase Bubley, allowing Ferreira to score.
GWU evened the score at 1-1 when Spake hit a 2-2 pitch down the right-field line for a solo home run.
The Dolphins took a 2-1 lead in the top of the fifth when Ferreira scored on Bubley's second error of the contest. With one out, Ferreira drew a walk and then advanced to third on a single up the middle by Fleming. In the next at-bat, junior right fielder Thomas Myers hit a slow roller to third and Bubley bobbled the ball, allowing Ferreira to score.
The Bulldogs took their first lead off the series, 5-2, after scoring four runs on five hits while taking advantage of two Dolphin errors. The big blow of the inning was a two-run homer to left field with two outs.
JU evened the contest at 5-5 in the top of the seventh when junior catcher Jeremy Gillan drove in a run with a grounder to third and Martinez hit a two-run single with two outs. Bernazard led off the inning with a walk and then advanced to second when Ferreira beat out a single at third. A positioning mishap allowed junior left fielder Kyle Fleming to load the bases on a sacrifice bunt before Bernazard scored on a slow chopper to third by Gillan. Martinez followed with a single up the middle on a 1-1 count to tie the game.
The Bulldogs threatened in the bottom of the ninth with runners on first and second with one out but Loosen got a fly out to left by Josh Drewery and Simmons gunned down Matt Rizzuto at third to end the inning.
JU and GWU will wrap up its series with game two at 4 p.m. The game may be completed on Sunday due to no lights being at Varsity Field.

PONTIAC, Ill. -- A Livingston County foster mom has pleaded "not guilty" to first degree murder charges in the death of a four-year-old girl in her care.
Friday, a Livingston County Grand Jury indicted Heather Lamie on two counts of First Degree Murder in the death of Kianna Rudesill.
Rudesill died in May of 2011 at OSF St. Francis Medical Center in Peoria.
Her cause of death was listed as serious brain trauma and multiple injuries to her face, back, and legs.
While a Peoria Coroner's jury ruled the child's death a homicide, Dr. Becky Kalvelage-Roth, a clinical psychologist, said she believed Kianna injured herself during a temper tantrum.
Livingston County State's Attorney Seth Uphoff, elected in November, called for a review of the case by a Grand Jury.
He said Heather Lamie faces life in prison if convicted.
"Because Heather is over the age of 17, and because the victim is under the age of 12, if she's convicted of first degree murder, then it's a mandatory life sentence in prison," said Uphoff.
Heather Lamie's bond is set at $2 million.

Not to be outdone by the San Diego Chargers, the Oakland Raiders offense continue to move the football down the field on big plays. Quarterback Carson Palmer once again hit running back Michael Bush out of the backfield, who once again lumbered down the field for a gain of 55 yards. Two plays later, Palmer connected with rookie wide receiver Denarius Moore once again in the endzone.
Moore once again beat his man off the line and Palmer rifled in a pass, with Moore catching the ball in the endzone for his second touchdown catch of the night to push the Chargers lead to 24-10. Already, Moore has 4 receptions for 112 yards and two touchdowns. Carson Palmer has already passed for 250 yards with just two incompletions.

The curriculum in the Thomas F. Freeman Honors College includes the orientation of students to the College, the introduction of them to its themes and skills in General Education courses, the incorporation of the themes and skills in advanced courses inside and outside their majors, and the incorporation of the themes and skills in projects at the ends of their programs of study. These themes, skills, courses, project and related activities, go beyond the preparation non-Honors majors receive, especially for participation in age of the global.
Progression for Full Program Scholars
In their first semester in the freshman year, students must take the special Honors section of FS 102, Freshman Seminar, which introduces them to the academy, university, and College, and especially, the major themes in the College: Interdisciplinarity; Ethics/Aesthetics/Philosophy; and Local/National/Global.
In that first semester, they also take ENG 131, and may take SC 135 or SC 136, to focus on Interdisciplinarity.
In second semester in the freshman year, students take ENG 132 to continue their focus on Interdisciplinarity. They may take SC 135 or SC 136 for a focus on Interdisciplinarity if they did not take it in the first semester.
In the first semester of the sophomore year, students take CS 116 for an introduction to the application of computers in research, reports, presentations, multimedia and the Web.
They also take HIST 231 and POLI 231 for the Local/National/Global theme, and may take MUSI 239, ART 135, or ENG 230, 231, 235 or 244, for a focus on the Ethics/Aesthetics/Philosophy theme.
In the second semester of the sophomore year, students take CS 116 for an introduction to the application of computers in research, presentations and multimedia if they have not done so.
They also may take HIST 232, POLI 232 for the continuation of the focus on the Local/National/Global theme. And, they may take MUSI 239, ART 135, or ENG 230, 231, 235 or 244, for a focus on the Ethics/Aesthetics/Philosophy theme if they did not take these courses in the first semester.
In their third and fourth years, students take three 300-level or 400-level elective courses – one outside the major and two in the major – each with an Honors College augmentation. The courses probably will be the subjects of proposals that students and their instructors draw up and that receive the approval of the Honors College.
In the fourth year, students complete the internship or research/creative/professional project in the major (the internship would meet the requirements for HON 498; the project would meet those for HON 499).
This progression, for which there may be modifications for certain students, is in this document.
Progression for Departmental Scholars
In their junior years or senior years in the university, Departmental Scholars take three upper (300- or 400-level) elective courses – one outside their majors and two within their majors. Each of these courses will have augmentations that address at least one of the themes in the College.
Then in their senior years in the university, they complete one required course in the major – a course they can use to satisfy the requirement for an Honors Internship or an Honors Research/Creative/Professional Project.
This academic progression, for which there also may be modifications, is in the JUNR and SENR sections of this document.

Lancashire's Police and Crime Commissioner speaks out after being cleared in expenses row (From Blackburn Citizen)

Lancashire's Police and Crime Commissioner speaks out after being cleared in expenses row
12:00pm Sunday 12th January 2014 in News By Bill Jacobs, Local government reporter
CLEARED Lancashire Police and Crime Commissioner Clive Grunshaw said he had learnt lessons about the need for speedy justice after his 13-month ordeal over his expenses.
The former milkman was told on Thursday he would not face prosecution over his claims for £1,550 when a Labour county councillor.
The Crown Prosecution Service said there was no evidence of dishonesty concerning the disputed cash claims, more than a year after former Tory county councillor Sam Chapman made the allegations.
Mr Grunshaw said: "I have certainly learnt lessons from this.
"It has been hanging over me for 13 months and I am very relieved it is all over.
"I have learnt to be very careful with my expenses in the future.
"The CPS proved what I had said all along. I never did anything intentionally. It said that there was no evidence of dishonesty or deliberacy.
"It was a very complex system and I regret making mistakes. "I claim very few expenses now and they are all placed on the PCC website for anyone to see.
"I have also learnt a lesson about speedy justice.
"This was a very long investigation and I shudder to think how much it cost - possible tens of thousands of pounds.
"It was hanging over my head for more than a year and did not make doing my job any easier.
"We want to see a system where justice is as speedy as possible while completing investigations properly.
"We need to reduce delays before and when cases get to court. "Unnecessary delays cause concern to those accused, to the victims of crime and cost the police time and money.
"I think these allegations were politically motivated and Mr Chapman should accept the conclusions of the CPS after a very lengthy and thorough investigation."
The Independent Police Complaints Commission launched the investigation over alleged discrepancies in his expenses before winning the November 2012 commissioner election.
Mr Chapman alleged Mr Grunshaw had 'double claimed' for meetings of the county council and police authority in Preston on the same days from his Fleetwood home on 23 occasions.
Mr Chapman said: "It is clearly nonsense to claim that my complaint was politically motivated. "I look forward to the publication of the IPCC report when we can all see the evidence and try to understand the CPS decision."

We've already had New Labour MP Janet Anderson disgraced and replaced over excessive expense claims and the general public are getting fed up with it all. I used to be able to trust councillors and MP's to uphold that position but no more. Little difference between any of them. Just a career move and nothing more. On the whole they only survive after finding themselves safe seats where they hold biased power to do anything no matter how ineffective they have become.
Safe seat politicians - Easy come easy go!
The only skills needed to be either a councillor or an MP is to find a safe seat somewhere and have the ability to ignore and brush aside criticism without feeling guilt.
After all said and done politicians are only on benefits that are paid for by the general public and the public deserve and now demand better conduct than this!

position was created in the first place along with it's vast amount of money to support it. I for one have not seen any benefits emanating from the Post nor do I expect to see any, spend the money on extra Police or even better locking up convicted people for longer rather than allowing them to walk about committing further crime.

Joe blogs on the street could not get away so easily but our dear Clive did.
It really is who you know!!!
Seeing as your out of this now how about doing something about cases which are dragged on for years, your police officers looking for evidence to make the case stick, regardless of the time or cost to the average working person.

Nothing like a Tory scorned, Some of the comments on here are unbelievable. and I dare say libel. However the man was found not guilty. I hope he does sue the councillor who made the allegations. I agree with many people who can not see the purpose or need for such a post. just remember the election was not open to just anybody as it required a substantial deposit which only political parties could afford. Time to scrap the post, and the Tories police cuts along with it.
Now this is my opinion, you can either agree or disagree with it!
