Crime is down in the city of Fort Worth according to statistics released by the police department.
Although the murder rate is up by 8 percent, the overall violent crime rate is down by 1 percent to date. And, the biggest decrease the city saw this year was the drop in property crimes. Thefts, burglaries and other property crimes were down by 11.8 percent.
Chief Jeffrey Halstead pointed to several initiatives that have helped reduce crime in the city over the past year.
He said patrol staffing is the highest it's been in years. He also reassigned officers in the department's Zero Tolerance Unit so they can help knock down crimes that are trending, from serial robberies to home invasions or any ongoing problem.
Just last month, a collaborative effort helped capture five suspects who were committing violent robberies at a string of Metro PCS and T-Mobile stores. Teamwork is helping suppress crime, he said.
The areas of concern are now murders and sexual assaults, but the chief said there are no serial offenders working and often there is no way to predict or prevent those crimes from happening.
Additionally, the Chief Halstead addressed the problem of his officers drinking and driving. Recently his chief of staff was arrested on DWI charges. Seventeen others have been arrested since 2008, including one officer who hit and killed a young mother.
He now requires all officers to attend training and has put the word out for his staff to buddy up and look out for each other. He will send out a letter to his department about the importance of public trust.
His goal is to have no off-duty officer drinking arrests in 2013. Even one will be too many, he said.
Chief Jeffrey Halstead's Letter to the Fort Worth Police Department
I will RESPECTFULLY serve the citizens of Fort Worth and the Fort Worth Police Department.
I will DEDICATE myself to the protection of life, property, and our PUBLIC TRUST.
My INTEGRITY, CHARACTER, and COURAGE will be above reproach, and I will accept no less from other members of our Department.
Who are we and how are we doing?
This is the time of year when we all look back in our personal lives and evaluate where we are, how are we doing, and begin to make changes for the next year of our lives. We probably look more in the mirror at this time of year and see if we like what we see. We make positive changes, we exercise more, we start new eating habits, or we purchase new clothes. Some of us are successful…most of us may not meet our newly established personal goals. Regardless…I think it is the self-evaluation that is very important. I'm not big on "resolutions"…especially at New Years but honestly, we, as an organization and as a police culture, really have to make immediate demands upon one another.
Other than a vote on pension and a high profile arrest of a police executive, I think we can say 2012 was a great year and I give thanks to all of you. You complete the mission, you provide the amazing services to our residents, and you keep this finely tuned police machine running like a Formula One race car. But, in the public's mind, we are only graded on our latest negative headline and quite frankly, our latest headline was horrible. So…that is how we are graded externally and perhaps internally. Regardless of our response times, lower crime rate, or professional relationships with our community, we are viewed exactly how the latest headline reads. I know this is not fair and I feel your pain…trust me, I have been scarred and my heart hurts with yours. However, I know what the character of this department is and I am here ready to stand tall and represent the men and women that complete our mission…YOU.
So…what is next for us? How in the world do we overcome another off-duty arrest and allegation of DWI? I know we have made some great progress because if you 'take away' this latest arrest, we have had only ONE "DWI" related offense this entire year. That is a 75% decrease in a calendar year after we mandated alcohol awareness training. I am very pleased with those numbers. Don't forget that we also have to think about family violence allegations, criminal allegations, fraud/theft, and public intoxications. Unfortunately, I have seen way too many of these cases in my last 4 years serving you as Chief and honestly…I don't want to see another one!
But let's get back to US and our image. Hopefully you can help me develop that answer together! I have an idea I want you to consider. When I visit other companies and industries I see certain statements and images that really maintain a focus on what needs to be accomplished at every level of the organization.
For instance, in a manufacturing industry, they have giant signs that shows a message like, "184 days with NO injuries" or maybe another type of business would post "Our image is everything…take a look" and this would be posted next to a mirror for all employees. It may sound pretty basic but they work!
Albert Einstein said, "The significant challenges we face today cannot be solved at the same level of thinking we were at when we created them." Ladies and Gentlemen, WE are creating our own significant challenges! So…the usual decisions and mindset approaching these challenges need to be fresh, creative, and crafted to make us successful. Here is what I am doing in my office and I hope all of your Captains/Lieutenants/Sergeants…heck, I hope all of you can join me. There is a 2-prong approach to this idea.
First, for Christmas I am going to buy myself a small 'white-board' and place it in a prominent place in the Chief's office. I will update this board every day in 2013 with the focus statement of: "___ days since our last off duty arrest". My goal is that on December 31st, 2013, the number on this board is 365!! There is absolutely NO excuse in the world that we cannot raise the level of our ethics, actions, and expectations so that we will be successful. But we have to do this together…and that brings me to "step 2".
Secondly, I am asking EVERYONE in our department to find their best friend in the PD, mentor, boss, partner, whoever your closest member of the department is. Find that person and spend about 15 minutes with them immediately after reading this and make a pact with them. Set up a contract with them and vow to one another that no matter what…you will NOT let your actions or decisions get you in trouble in 2013! Shake on it, hug each other, make that promise like your career depends on it because frankly, it does! Public scrutiny regarding our off duty behavior increases with every incident and if you have not noticed, across the nation, our profession is taking negative hits within the media and within our support networks. So…this personal commitment, contract, promise or professional bond is one of the most important things you can do for us. Do it today…I would love for our department to be "Incident free in one-three" (2013).
In reference to our profession taking so many hits lately, this is a national trend and I am ready to combat this trend and be smarter than other departments. I am going to add a civilian "Director of Marketing and Communications" in early 2013. The funding for this position came from CCPD so General Fund dollars are not used. This person will help me 'brand' our department, creatively market our people and our mission, and positively promote our message in all areas of our City, especially the strong support areas. This will greatly benefit us for years to come! We will build stronger political partnerships, increase exposure of our positive crime trends, and assist with our growth as a department across all media fronts! We will aggressively market our mission, our success, and build the strongest communications partnerships ever in the history of the PD. It will be exciting for all of us and will once again, place us in the national spotlight as a true leader in law enforcement!
On a personal note, I wanted to express my appreciation to all of you that have reached out to me, to some of our employees that have been the focus of negative attention and those of you that have gone out of your way to support one another. We truly are a "police family" and I think it is time for us to bond together, stand tall in our career, and focus on our future. You will make it amazing for all of us and as your Chief, I could not be more proud to join you on this crusade…I have made my pact and now I need you to!
I hope the holidays were a blessing to you and your loved ones.
Godspeed to all of you and be safe,
Jeff Halstead

This is a thread for people to post their fantasy teams and to receive feedback from other members. I'm interested to know who my fellow Daily Norseman fans view as good/bad picks especially in late rounds. I'm fairly new to fantasy football but here is my roster and my value (what round i picked the player in)
Cam Newton: Round 1 Pick 4
With several other players on the board, (Calvin Johnson, Rob Gronkowski) I went with Newton because I feel the kid is going to be unstoppable this year. He's like a much better Michael Vick with more pocket presence and awareness.
A.J. Green: Round 2 Pick 17
My buddy actually talked me into this pick, I don't know how good of value I got but he's projected to be very good. And I figured with Dalton in his second year it couldn't hurt.
Vernon Davis: Round 3 Pick 24
With all the elite TE's off the board in Gronkowski and Graham, the next best one I thought was Davis, I just thought of last year in the NFC Divisional and NFC Championships games, on one of the biggest stages of his career he got massive yards.
Trent Richardson: Round 4 Pick 37
This pick I was pretty pissed because the guy right before me snagged AP. I'm taking a massive risk with Richardson with other proven RB'S on the board like Ahmad Bradshaw.
Mike Wallace: Round 5 Pick 44
I really wanted DeSean Jackson here but once again the guy right before me snagged him, but I forsee another great year for Mike Wallace anyway.
Jeremy Maclin: Round 6 Pick 57
I took DeSean Jackson's teammate and Philly's second string, with other WR's on the board like Eric Decker and Greg Little in terms of other value at this point.
Aaron Hernandez Round 7 Pick 64
I consider this my steal of the draft. In my buddy's ESPN draft right before this one, Hernandez went somewhere in the third so with NE running the two TE set, I jumped on him here.
Baltimore Ravens Defense: Round 8 Pick 77
Great defenses off the board like SF who went in the third round, I felt I good semi-good value for a team that almost knocked off the Pats last year in the AFC Championship Game.
Toby Gerhart : Round 9 Pick 84
One of the Vikings Sleepers in the draft who will probably be playing a lot the first half of the season this is a solid pick.
Matt Schaub: Round 10 Pick 97
This guy throws for like 4,000 yards every year and with a wideout like Andre Johnson I figured this was a safe pick.
Darrius Heyward-Bey: Round 11 Pick 104
The speedster on the Raiders caught passes for 970 yards last year, this year he's can only get better.
Kyle Rudolph: Round 12 Pick 117
After this year, people will have to consider Kyle Rudolph one of the most dangerous TE's in the game with his ability to catch almost anything in his area code.
Blair Walsh: Round 13 Pick 124
I took a risk on our rookie kicker here, all the good K's went somewhere between Round's 6 and 7
Mario Manningham: Round 14 Pick 137
Randy Moss went in the 12th, so I picked up Manningham and I expect him to get somewhere in there 600 to 700 yard range in recieving this year.
Minnesota Vikings Defense: Round 15 Pick 144
Last pick. Why not. Our defense is going to be much better than people expect this year.
That's my draft, so any feedback is appreciated, like I said I'm new to the whole FF thing! Thanks!

Foxconn, Apple's manufacturer of things you likely own and Chinese despair, was last night's corporate target on The Daily Show. It's funny! But then it alternates between funny and Oh wait, this is true and awful. But then funny again! »
At this point you might be sick of reading about Walter Isaacson's new mega-seller, but what about watching Jon Stewart tackle the book? Of course it's interesting. Stewart sat down with Isaacson to talk Steve and make a Zune joke. »

Oooh, a square! I love me a nice square.
Garter stitch with some eyelets, a nice heart, multicoloured random bobbles (not really random, since I followed a pattern...) and a good old basketweave.
I should have taken this picture outside this past weekend. The sun was shining, the birds were singing, the weeds were getting yanked. Now, it's all grey and the remaining weeds are enjoying a nice rainy drink to encourage growth. And the flash is giving us over-bright colours.
Next up: Maybe a dishcloth!

Yum! Says Yuck to Cigarette Smoke
KFC, Pizza Hut go smoke-free
Published in CSP Daily News
LOUISVILLE, Ky. -- Citing the importance of customer and employee health, restaurant leaders KFC (Kentucky Fried Chicken) and Pizza Hut both announced they will enact a No Smoking Policy for all company-owned restaurants. KFC and Pizza Hut are divisions of Louisville, Ky.-based Yum! Brands.
Beginning this week and on a phased basis, "No Smoking" signs will be placed in all 1,200 KFC and 1,675 Pizza Hut restaurants owned by the company in the United States. The companies will also actively encourage their respective franchise operators to participate [image-nocss] in this effort. There are 4,200 KFC franchised restaurants and 4,600 Pizza Hut franchised restaurants in the United States.
The move is in response to the growing concern and heightened awareness of second-hand smoke, lung-cancer illness and recent lung-cancer deaths. In a joint statement, Gregg Dedrick, president of KFC, and Peter Hearl, president of Pizza Hut said, "KFC and Pizza Hut are concerned about our customers' and employees' health regarding the dangers of second-hand smoke. We are taking this action today to help heighten awareness of second-hand smoke issues raised by the U.S. Surgeon General, Richard Carmona, who has indicated second-hand smoke may be harmful and hazardous to the health of the general public. This is a critical issue. In our opinion, going smoke-free is simply the right thing to do."
John L. Kirkwood, president and CEO of the American Lung Association, applauded the restaurant chains' efforts. This shows that they are concerned about the health of their employees and customers, he said. Our experience is that the public embraces smoke-free environments. We hope that others follow their lead."
Yum! Brands Inc. is the world's largest restaurant company in terms of system restaurants with nearly 34,000 restaurants in more than 100 countries and territories. With today's announcement, all company-owned KFC, Pizza Hut, Taco Bell, Long John Silver's and A&W All-American Foods Restaurants will be smoke-free in the United States and in many markets around the globe.

Decked out in attire fit for a ball, children of all ages joined together at the Recreation Center on Friday night. Families filled up six rows of the large all-purpose room, eager to watch Plaza Theatrical Productions' performance of Cinderella.
Based out of Lynbrook, the traveling theater company has been producing community entertainment since 1983, according to their Web site.
Friday night's fairy tale in the park, presented by the Lynbrook Chamber of Commerce, featured music, dancing, comedy, and even a little audience participation.
Lynbrook girls seated in the front row were asked to try on the mysterious glass slipper found by the prince. But, as the local princesses soon found out, the piece of magical footwear had only one true owner - Cinderella.

From Rotoworld via the Denver post:
According to several sources close to him, Patrick Roy has been offered the head coaching job of the Colorado Avalanche.
He is said to be mulling over the organization's offer. The Avalanche and Roy are remaining fairly tight-lipped about the process though and neither have commented on the situation since Roy left Colorado after their meeting with president Pierre Lacroix almost two weeks ago. Currently the coach of the team is still Tony Granato, but if this rumor is true he may not be for much longer. Stay tuned.
I'm not sure how I feel about this

Rebecca Love, Pathy Family Fellowship (PFF) Community Leadership Fellow
Rebecca Love believes in the unifying force of sport and the powerful effects it can have on children, especially young girls. It gives them confidence on and off playing fields.
Ms Love, a kinesiology graduate and sports enthusiast, is now putting those beliefs into action as a PFF Community Leadership Fellow. She proposed working with an international organization in Trinidad and Tobago to create a female-oriented program that links sport and physical activity with HIV and AIDS education.
"Once people are playing sports, it sets up an ideal environment to teach about health education," says Ms Love. "Specifically, for girls, a positive experience in sport gives them the confidence to make good decisions in other parts of their lives. And in terms of education, without the overpowering influence of boys, girls can ask the questions they want."
Ms Love is leaving mid-September for San Fernando, Trinidad, where she will spend eight months developing Girls Kick AIDS Out in partnership with the Trinidad and Tobago Alliance for Sport and Physical Activity. She chose Trinidad because it's a country with an already strong connection to sport, its favourites being cricket, soccer, volleyball and running.
Sports have always played a strong role in Ms Love's own life. She plays water polo, rows and skis, and has also been active coaching young athletes and working with at-risk youth. At Queen's, she rowed varsity until an injury prevented her from continuing. She switched to play on the varsity water polo team for the next three years.
The PFF Community Leadership Program, established in 2011, is funded by the Pathy Family Foundation and administered by the Queen's University International Centre (QUIC). It offers Queen's undergraduate or graduate students up to $30,000 for eight- to 12-month fellowships promoting social change in international locations. The program runs until 2014.

The Hillsboro Hops will have a Cy Young winner on the coaching staff for the team's inaugural season in Oregon.
The Single-A baseball team announced its 2013 coaching staff Thursday. The team will be led by manager Audo Vicente, who has managed in the Arizona Diamondbacks organization for five years.
The team's pitching coach is Doug Drabek, a 13-year Major League Baseball veteran and winner of the 1990 NL Cy Young Award while pitching for the Pittsburgh Pirates.
The team's hitting coach is J.R. House, who played parts of five major league seasons with the Pirates, Astros and Orioles.
Hillsboro native and former Colorado Rockies Catcher Ben Petrick will serve on the Hops coaching staff as a consultant for the Arizona Diamondbacks.
Petrick was considered one of the best prospects to come out of Oregon, but his career was cut short because of Parkinson's disease. He wrote a book about his life, Forty Thousand To One, and has been featured on ESPN.
Petrick will assist the players in acclimating to life as a professional baseball player.
The Hops moved from Yakima, WA where the team had a 36-40 record last season.
The Hops begin a 38-game regular season on June 14 against the Salem-Keizer Volcanoes in Salem. The team's home debut is June 17 against the Eugene Emeralds.

No Monta Ellis tonight vs. KingsFiled under: News; Tagged as: James Andrews, Monta Ellis, Stephen Curry, Tyreke Evans
The Warriors just sent out a release with details of second opinion on Monta Ellis' injured left knee from Dr. James Andrews, the surgeon who originally fixed Ellis' ACL tear in that knee as a high schooler. The release says that Andrews confirmed the team's original diagnosis of a sprained knee. Ellis won't play tonight against the Sacramento Kings but will be listed as day-to-day after that.
The upshot? Well, it's interesting that Ellis feels the need to seek out a second opinion, since that would seem to potentially indicate he's still having trouble with the knee, even after nine days of rest. (Rest from the team, at least. Who knows how that fishing trip went?)
It also means Stephen Curry will have every chance to press his case in the Rookie of the Year race in tonight against front-runner Tyreke Evans.

Nothing on tonight's game? C'mon Geoff…
Twinkie defense February 18th, 2010 at 12:25 am
*Monta* is the one who needed a second opinion? Geoff don't you think this has to do with the Warriors sending out a signal to the League that Monta is healthy and available, for the right pieces?
I was @ the game tonight (2/17) & what I personally saw was our ROY Curry barely miss (again for 2nd consecutive game) a triple-double by 3-4 rebounds… While Evans barely broke double-digits for points only! No question, Curry makes others better. Which may not be as sexy as scoring 55 ala Jennings-but making others better IS way more important-just ask M. Jordan.
also, sidenote, who does D. George think he is by hitting 5 straight 3's & playing well tonight? Does he think it's 1998 or something!?
btw, love reading ur work & the others who contribute here.
Geoff: Starting to get it re Curry yet?
That's two in a row where the kid has just suffocated Tyreke — and Evans is gonna be a star, for sure. And 15 dimes is second only to Tim Hardaway's 16 as a W rook.
The kid is super special. Too bad the beats don't seem to get it. Yet.
Tyreke Evans is too one dimensional. Hes not much better than an Andre Miller type player. too much hype…
How 'bout now, Geoff? Curry getting to you yet?
BEST NEWS EVER. ok, 2nd best. starting Monday, Damon Bruce noon-4 on KNBR 1050 opposite the 2 stooges. guess Lee Hammer'd had enough of the other talent constantly referring to things they'd heard on Dan Patrick's show each day.
let's erase the ratings excuse.
Nigel Tufnel February 23rd, 2010 at 5:45 pm
No, the best news is Corey Maggette is out for at least 8 games. I may actually be able to watch this team for a while again.
no, the best news comes from CC's twitter today:
"Official #gsw #warriors #nba announcement: I'm quitting the Warriors as soon as Ellis and/or Biedrins are traded."
that should get everyone off the fence on the issue. it's too bad, i really like Biedrins.
hurricane225 February 25th, 2010 at 11:18 pm
3 seasons in a row Geoff you quit before it's over???
Helllllo! Anybody there?
Boy, you missed another great one from Kid Curry last night. Hope you've been watching, Geoff.
jsl, in case you missed it, Geoff let us know a few weeks back that he'd been hired by NBA.com to write the Warriors' home game recaps. therefore, only live chats on the road. Geoff's been in attendance at home games doing his paying gig.
Nigel Tufnel March 1st, 2010 at 1:25 pm
So we'll only get to read Geoff's commentary here in blowout losses then? That's great. Well actually, his sarcasm would be a lot less effective in wins anyway, probably for the best.
Derek: Thanks for the info.
So, to cover Geoff in his absence, and apropos of this column's head, here's our new story:
NO MONTA ELLIS ON THIS ROAD TRIP (And no Goose, either)

Tucson, AZ (Sports Network) - Brandon Ashley hit all six of his shots from the floor and made 8-of-9 free throws en route to a game-high 20 points and 10 rebounds, as No. 10 Arizona thumped Long Beach State, 94-72, on Monday at McKale Center.
"Brandon Ashley was the best player on the court for us. Any time you get 20 and 10 in 24 minutes, that's terrific," Arizona coach Sean Miller said.
Kevin Parrom drained five 3-pointers without a miss for 15 points, while Solomon Hill added 15 points -- including 11-for-11 from the free throw line -- for the Wildcats (3-0), who were coming off a win over UTEP on Thursday.
Nick Johnson donated 12 points and five assists to the winning cause.
James Ennis put home a team-high 17 points to go with seven rebounds, while Peter Pappageorge added 16 points on 4-of-6 shooting for the 49ers (1-3). Kris Gulley and Deng Deng contributed 12 and 10 points, respectively, in defeat.
Arizona asserted its superiority early and often, racing out to a 13-5 lead less than five minutes into the game.
Gulley hit a trey before an official timeout to make it a five-point game, but the Wildcats used a 22-8 run to build a 35-16 advantage with just over eight minutes to play in the opening half.
Arizona's first-half lead reached 22 with just over six minutes to play and the Wildcats held a comfortable 50-37 advantage at the break. They shot a ridiculous 63 percent from the floor and 5-of-9 from 3-point range during the opening stanza.
Long Beach State never got close in the second 20 minutes as the Wildcats' lead reached as many as 30 en route to the easy victory.
Long Beach State has gone down by double digits in all three of its setbacks
this season ... Arizona has won all four meetings between the teams,
including a 91-57 triumph in the previous meeting on Nov. 15, 1995 ... The
Wildcats shot 53.6 percent from the field overall.

East Pasco Historical Society Mission Statement
Our mission initially is to preserve the early history of East Pasco County, Florida, including the communities of Lacoochee, Trilby, Trilacoochee and Clay Sink by recording the memories and stories of current and former residents. Later, when we get to the 1930s, 1940s and 1950s as the economy and other circumstances brought about change, we will expand our coverage to include other communities in East Pasco.
Although Lacoochee reached it's hey-day in the 1920's when Cummer Sons Cypress Company built a mill, hotel and houses for their employees, an established farming community had been in place since the mid 1800's.
We invite you to visit our web site and take a trip back in time to a place where life was simple but challenging and a job well done was appreciated.

Without question, Christmas 1965 ranks as my all-time favorite. Why? It was during the 1965 Christmas season that my Cheryl and I both came to realize we would not only share that one, but every coming Christmas for the rest of our lives.
Yes, 1965 is at the top of the heap, but I remember all of the Christmases of my life with much fondness. As they began to come along, it was always enjoyable, exciting and exasperating to find just the right gifts for our children. And, for each of them, there always had to be a stocking filled with candy and small toys. Nowadays, it is also customary for us to have stockings for the spouses of our children and for all of our grandchildren.
Today, my mind has retreated to memories of earlier Christmas, those days when I was the kid waiting for Santa Claus to make his visit.
Bicycles. Electric trains.
Things our parents could not really afford, but with the help of credit at the local Western Auto store, Santa always seemed to bring exactly what my good brother William and I were longing to have.
As I was letting my mind run wild and free, one special event from yesteryear flashed by in living color. My best guess is that it was 1951. William and I both had Hopalong Cassidy suits waiting for us under the tree, not only the black denim outfits and black cowboy hats, but the whole shebang. We had boots as well as genuine imitation leather holsters filled with faux pearl handled six shooters. Two little boys with cap pistols. Yippee ki-yo ki-yay!
I have no idea what Santa had to pay for those duds, but
a few years ago in an antique shop I saw the suit alone, not
including boots or guns, just the outfit and the hat. The
retailer was asking $800. You might think, too bad you don't
still have yours, you could make a nifty profit. Yeah, you're right,
nonetheless, I have no doubt that I would decline to sell.
Some things, including Christmas memories, are priceless.

Bicycles for Christmas
By Wayne L. Groover
The tall spruce (Christmas) tree draped with colored lights and a star that almost reached the ceiling was the only thing that separated the red and blue bicycles. We knew by the shape of the bars which treasure was for Melanie and which one I would be riding. The flames from the roaring fire in the fireplace added to the glow of the room. Daddy was always good at building fires. He would stoop by the hearth, snap a few sticks of kindling, add a log or two, and almost like magic the welcome sound of flames covering and burning logs would fill the living and dining rooms.
It was Christmas morning in Lacoochee in 1953 and somehow, someway, Santa had delivered bicycles to the Groover house. Melanie and I were too eager to open the other presents and gobble some breakfast so we could get out and ride up and down the street from the crate mill to the railroad, to determine just how Santa had pushed those beauties without any scratches down the chimney.
Later we were to learn that they had been stored in the downstairs landing of the steps that helped to separate the upstairs apartment from the lower floor of the large Martin house that was conveniently built between the commissary and the filling station about a block from our house. A thoughtful and yes, wonderful couple, Counsel and Goldie Johnson had generously kept the Christmas secret of those bicycles so that late on Christmas Eve when Mom and Dad had made sure that Melanie and I were sound asleep, Dad could walk a short distance and push or perhaps ride those bicycles one by one to our house for the most exciting Christmas morning of our lives.

This is the time of year that we have the tendency to pause and reflect on memories of past Christmas days; those special moments, those special gifts received or given, the times spent with families and friends.
We all have that memory of a certain Christmas Day or Christmas gift that never leaves us. Below you will find two such memories. I'm sure that reading these stories will bring to mind your own special memory.
We trust you had a very Merry Christmas and we wish for you a Happy New Year. 2013 has been a good year for East Pasco Historical Society as you have brought us many memories and pictures that we have shared with our viewers. We expect no less for 2014.

Lots of discussions about point guards out there. Ty Lawson, Darren Collison and Tony Parker are names that are being floated by other teams as available in a trade. Raymond Felton is a free agent. Blazer fans have been throwing out names like Kirk Hinrich, OJ Mayo, Mo Williams and Devin Harris.
Assuming a trade or free agent signing could be completed, which point guard would you like to see starting for the Blazers next season?

Connected. We are anything if not connected. Social media and technology allow us to be the most connected generation that humanity has ever seen. No need to read cave drawings or wait on carrier pigeons. Instead just check out Twitter and Instagram. Our ability to connect is instant and sometimes fraught with peril. Parents are concerned about to whom their teens are connected and what they might be sharing. Some studies will suggest that social media is causing our teens to become anti-social (ironic, right?). Others suggest that we need to use social media more in education to spur on innovation and creativity. These connections are generally good things. Just so you do not think this is just a teenage thing, I meet adults regularly who want to connect through LinkedIn. On more than one occasion they have said more connections make them look more important.
I have several hundred "friends" on Facebook, and connections on LinkedIn. You might have them to, but if we are honest, these are not friends, nor are they people we keep in contact with. That does not make Facebook or LinkedIn bad things…in fact, quite the contrary, the connections are useful and helpful. It is almost as if rapport already exist because we are connected. While Hi-Tech offers us connections, getting High Touch provides us with community.
Teenagers who use social media tend to have lots of connections, but they will also tell you that community is their preference. Community is a product of relationships, friendships, shared experiences and common bonds. Community provides a group to laugh with and a group to cry alongside. Community inspires teenagers to be more than a screen name. Parents bear a role in this. We need to make efforts to help teach our children the role and value of community. We model it by participating in civic groups, faith groups, book studies and poker night. We encourage it by allowing friends to come over and eat all of our food and play our games. We facilitate it by driving to and from soccer practices, youth groups and band rehearsals.
Help your teenager balance Hi-Tech and High Touch. It will help you balance it as well. If you want your teenager to be part of community, you have to be a part too. Connections are numbers, communities are people.

On the evening of December 3, 1957, Maria Ridulph, 7, was out playing in the fresh snow with friends near her home in Sycamore, Illinois. She was snatched off a street corner and and the subsequent search made national headlines until her body was found a few months later in a field 120 miles away. More than five decades later, justice finally came for the man convicted of her killing.
The last known person to see Maria alive Kathy Sigman Chapman (now 63) told authorities that she had been playing in the snow with Ridulph when a teenage boy who identified himself as "Johnny" approached them. He asked the girls whether they liked dolls and if they would like to take a ride. Kathy recalled Maria ran back to get a doll. When she returned, Kathy left to get her mittens. She never saw either of them again.
The ensuing manhunt focused on over a hundred suspects at one time or another, including John Tessier, 17, a high school dropout who lived just a few blocks from the girls. When police came to his door, Tessier had a rock-solid alibi: he and his parents said he was in a nearby town enlisting in the U.S. Air Force.
A few days after Ridulph vanished, Tessier left for the military. He served in Vietnam and was awarded a bronze star for bravery. Tessier would change his name to Jack McCullough, and eventually move to Seattle where he worked as a state police officer.
Back in Sycamore, though a monument in memory of Maria Ridulph was erected by the police station on the 40th anniversary of her kidnapping, there were no fresh leads until a stunning deathbed confession came to light in 2008. Janet Tessier, just an infant at the time of the Ridulph's death, called Illinois authorities with a shocking revelation. Her mother had confessed that Janet's older brother had committed the crime that rocked their small town five decades earlier. "John did it," the near-death woman had uttered, "John did it and you have to tell someone."
Police obtained a 1957 photo of McCullough, then Tessier, (shown above, left) from one of his old girlfriends. Inside the photo's frame was the bus ticket McCullough would have used to go to his enlistment interview. It was unused. They then went back to Janet Chapman with the photo of the suspected teenager, whom she positively identified as "Johnny." Authorities arrested McCullough in 2011 and brought him back to Illinois to stand trial.
Despite the intervening years, the testimony of Chapman, Janet Tessier and others was enough to convince a jury to return a guilty verdict in McCullough's September 2012 trial. McCullough did not take the stand in his own defense — his attorneys argued unsuccessfully that McCullough was not in Sycamore on the day of the crime. They maintained that the truth could be found in the 4,000 pages of FBI documents from the original investigation, but Judge James Hallock ruled the evidence inadmissible because the agents who could authenticate the information has long since died.
Last week, Jack McCullough, 73, was finally sentenced on the kidnapping and murder charges arising from the crime he committed at age 17. Before receiving the sentence of natural life in prison, ensuring he would die behind bars, McCullough addressed the court. "I did not, did not, kill Maria Ridulph," he lectured the judge referring to the FBI documents, "In the name of justice and fairness, open the box and view the truth."
Investigators believe they've got the truth, and that what may be the oldest cold case to ever come to trial and conviction has reached its proper conclusion. And while the town of Sycamore was forever changed by the killing of Maria Ridulph, some residents can put the tragedy behind them at long last. "This finally puts this part of my life to a resting point," Chapman told reporters after the sentencing that sealed the fate of Ridulph's killer.

How can we make the windows 8 start screen less hideous?
First let me say I don't hate windows 8, I installed the preview version on my laptop and I am using that right now. It's fine and I will continue to use it. But the start screen is not attractive.
Tiles are more interactive and more alive, but they are not as clean looking as an empty desktop with a beautiful background. Of course you don't exactly live inside the new start screen, it is typically a window or portal into another program or application, but if that is going to be the main launching point for different tasks, I'd prefer it look better.
So lets come up with ideas to make it look sharper. Here are a few of mine, if they are horrible please blast them, if a thousand ideas die on the vine it is a worthwhile thing to make the windows start screen less jarring.
1. For the love of god allow custom backgrounds for the start screen. Those psychedelic pastel colors and swirls are so 70s it's offensive - like an ice pick to my eyes.
2. Allow wider variation in size and perhaps even shape of the tiles. Why can't an image or weather tile take up a whole column instead of just one or two squares worth of space?
3. Change the themes so that they don't involve the multi colored tiles. That definitely has a certain "style" to it, but what if I don't like that style and think it too cartoony? Suck lemon? They do look better when some of them are showing actual images of content, but the monochrome colors that often appear are not always the best looking thing to have. I wish there were options to make certain tiles translucent or just hidden until hovered over or near. I don't really know where I am going with this, but there is something unsatisfying about the screens aesthetics to me.
If we are going to have some radical new design for a start screen I would prefer a theme that is more futuristic and cool looking like iron mans interface in the avengers:
Too exotic and out there? Perhaps, but I swear to you all, that image I just posted is a thousand times more beautiful and interesting looking than this screen:
via compixels.com
I am not even sure if it would be possible to spice up the look of the start screen into something more futuristic looking, but that would go a long way to making it better looking. There is something incredibly dated looking about those multiple colors in that start screen above.
Thoughts? Am I crazy? Does everyone just think the current start screen looks perfect?

On Monday, toxic coal sludge burst through a retention wall in eastern Tennessee, causing massive property and environmental damage. Federal studies have shown that coal ash contains "significant quantities of heavy metals like arsenic, lead and selenium, which can cause cancer and neurological problems." The incident — already being called the "largest environmental disaster of its kind in the United States" — may now be even worse than originally anticipated. Tennessee Valley Authority officials "initially said that about 1.7 million cubic yards of wet coal ash had spilled" in the disaster. Yesterday, however, they "released the results of an aerial survey that showed the actual amount was 5.4 million cubic yards, or enough to flood more than 3,000 acres one foot deep."
Tennessee coal ash disaster three times larger than originally estimated.

I came home from a meeting to find Bick picking our first heirloom green beans of the season. These are "tarheel" beans that I got from friends back home in Washington. They grow these beans every year from seeds that they save. They were gracious enough to give me some "creasy" non-pole requiring seeds. Actually, they gave me seeds from four different varieties that they grow.
I tried the pole beans last year and got six beans. I think I waited too late in the season to plant them. This year, I lost the first batch to late frost, but got them back in the ground asap. I cannot wait for dinner tonight! Bick also harvested ten summer squash and four zucs. The tomato plants are LOADED! This is the best garden we've ever done. Oh, and there was a solitary okra pod. I accidentally planted a dwarf variety of okra and they are less than knee high! I noticed my error and planted the regular ones in another bed. Don't know if they cross-bred or not. That remains to be seen. But the little ones are a bloomin'.
The longhorn topiary goes in the ground today. This is another of our "yard art" projects. Bick, being a proud Texan and purveyor of the tacky, has a set of longhorns that were festooned with white lights that served as Christmas lawn decor. He won custody of this herd in his divorce, but the lights have long since vanished and the metal structure has begun to rust. He has decided that they will make the perfect topiary. He wants to grow morning glory up and around them. So he's popped the biggest one into the center of the fire ring we purchased at the Tractor Supply, thank you very much. Bick, smart dude that he is, decided after a few tries that starting a fire, even for fun in a fire ring in drought-ridden North Central Texas doesn't make him the sharpest tool in the shed. So the fire ring is to add more of that rusty patina that we both love much and serve as center stage for the new lawn art exhibit here at Hillbilly Haven.
I've got coffee perking (it's the weekend!) and I'll have a cup then hit the gym for a workout this morning. After that, it's off to the mulch depot and garden center to get this party started.
Take good care of yourself. Be kind to others. Create.

By MONA NAIR6 News Reporter
KNOXVILLE (WATE) - Knoxville police investigators still have hope for solving the cold case of George Anthony "Tony" Barrett, who was murdered 16 years ago.
They believe there is a lot of evidence that could help them solve who killed Barrett, who was 33 at the time of his death.
He was found gagged and beaten to death with a baseball bat in his home in July 1994.
Police think a love triangle may have led to the murder. They hope modern DNA testing on some of the evidence will lead them to his killer.
Sherry Shoopman is Barrett's older sister. She and her then-husband, Lonnie, were the ones who found Barrett dead in his home.
Shoopman says Barrett was youngest of six children. At 6'2" and 220 pounds, he was a big baby his family loved very much.
"And Tony, we called him Horse, because he could put more food away than anybody, he's missed Mom's cooking all these years, all the Christmases, weddings, anniversaries," Shoopman said.
She says she and her husband were supposed to hang out with Tony the night they found him dead.
"When I looked in the window, we could see him laying there," Shoopman said. "That's when we took a huge rock and broke the window. I crawled in and opened the front door for Lonnie to get in."
Because Tony was a big man, investigators are certain more than one person was involved in the attack on him.
Nevin Long, with the Knoxville Police Department Special Crimes Unit, is the lead investigator in the case.
"He was seeing a young woman at the time. Kimberly Sutton was her name," Long said.
Sutton had recently split up with her husband, David Hopkins. Long says Hopkins and Barrett had some misunderstandings in the past.
"They had some squabbles in the past over narcotics because [Hopkins] had purchased some narcotics in the past from Barrett. And now that his wife, Kimberly, is romantically involved with Barrett, there's some tension there," Long explained.
Long says Hopkins was close friends with a man named David Riggs. Investigators think Riggs was also involved in the murder.
In fact, they know Riggs stole a gun the day Barrett was found murdered.
"My theory right now is they went to the house and probably used that gun to hold Mr. Barrett hostage or at bay. And then they either didn't want to risk the noise or the gun wasn't loaded. So they used a blunt object to actually kill him," Long saidys.
He also says investigators have a lot of solid evidence in this case, but still need more to bring closure to the Barrett family.
Long says in the last 16 years, Hopkins, Riggs and Sutton have been in and out of jail for various crimes.
"We are all still heart-broken, and our Mama, we just celebrated her 80th birthday. Sixteen years of not having her baby has aged her," Shoopman said.
Anyone with information that could help solve this case should call the Knoxville Police Department Special Crimes Unit at (865) 215-7140.

An Ethical Self Assessment
According to the Williams Institute Assessment Inventory "obligation" is the ethical perspective I most emulate (2009). The "frustrations" listed in the survey's summary include determining the right choice or defining your right vs. wrong with another person's views or choices of right vs. wrong are regular inner personal struggles. Such frustrations are faced within the workplace and do reflect various disappointments within my current and previous job (). It is a constant struggle between what is right and what would benefit me or my team. Equality and fairness are terms within the 'obligation' assessment I most understand. Playing Devil's Advocate or looking at all sides of the situation are my angle. I attribute these approaches to my research and fact-driven scientific background as well as a grounded viewpoint instilled by family. It must also be recognized that understanding others' perceptions and values influence the outcomes of one's own ethical business choices. Choices and ethical standards can also often follow the politically correct views within the corporate atmosphere one is currently a part of. Thus one will make a path of personal or company goals in their ethical journey within their job.
Management and Ethics
Previously as a manager I was expected to look at one 'greater good of the whole' – the company, as well as another 'greater good of the whole' – my store; examples given are for lack of a better model. It was a business within a business. This was a personal and professional struggle to focus on which 'whole' was most important at any given moment. Kudler Fine Foods is a similar example as the three stores are the 'whole', as well as each store is its own self-contained business 'whole'. With respect to the Kudler model, not all stores are the same as the areas they are located within differ. The clientele and products are unique to each location. As a manager I had to manage my expectations within the...

Valdosta - A South Georgia inmate is back behind bars after escaping three months ago.
In January, 35-year-old Willie James Gibbs Junior walked away from work detail at the Market Diner in Thomasville. He was being held at the Thomas County Diversion Center after he violated his probation on an aggravated battery charge.
Investigators in Lowndes County got a tip that Gibbs was at the Hudson Dockett Housing Authority on Fry Street in Valdosta Monday. He's now in the Lowndes County Jail and will be transferred back to Thomas County, where he'll be charged with escape.

The Goran Dragic Show, Part 1.
The Goran Dragic Show, Part 2.
Part 1 begins with Matt Bonner hitting that 3-pointer towards the end of the 3rd quarter, and the crowd erupts. Once the Suns bring it up the court, the Spurs don't find their defensive assignments properly. Tim Duncan takes his position on the weak side instead of getting his man, which we can assume is STAT. Instead, Bonner must guard Amar'e Stoudemire. Stoudemire sets a pick on Richard Jefferson, and Jefferson switches on to him. That leaves Stoudemire on the wing with a smaller, less explosive forward, and would have gotten the ball except that Dragic sees another mismatch... it's on him. Bonner switched on to him and now is trying to disrupt the pass to Stoudemire.
No respect for Goran Dragic. Bonner sagged so far off that he was begging for Dragic to take the shot. He did. The rest is history.
***One more thing - watch Dragic's interview with the experimental closed-captioning option on YouTube. The interview is on part 2.

Generic Recycle Symbol
If you've ever put something in the recycling bin just because ... well, it seemed recyclable, you may have accidentally gummed up the works at your local recycling plant. Find out what to keep out of your bin, so what goes in can be recycled easily and efficiently.
Bagging recyclables before you toss them in the bin causes even bigger problems, since workers have to tear open the bag and risk being exposed to potentially dangerous substances. Some facilities won't allow employees to open bags, meaning all your precious recyclables end up in the garbage, says Matsch.
The good news: Don't worry about the plastic ring that's left behind on the bottle when you remove the cap — it's small enough not to cause problems.

OTTAWA, ON: In January 2014, the spotlight will be on skating in Ottawa as the Canadian Tire Centre hosts the 100th anniversary of the Canadian Tire National Skating Championships from January 9-15, 2014. Ottawa Mayor Jim Watson, Olympic silver medalist Elizabeth Manley, and representatives from Skate Canada will officially start the countdown to this significant event on Monday, December 16 at the Rink of Dreams from 12:00 – 12:30 (ET).
The championships will feature approximately 250 of Canada's best figure skaters in senior, junior and novice as they vie for spots on the national team, international assignments and will act as the final step in the 2014 Olympic qualification process. On Sunday, January 12 at the conclusion of the senior events, Skate Canada will nominate the 17 member Olympic figure skating team to the Canadian Olympic Committee for selection to represent Canada at the 2014 Olympic Winter Games in Sochi, Russia.
To mark the occasion, Mayor Jim Watson will be participating in his first skating lesson. Olympic silver medalist and certified Skate Canada coach Elizabeth Manley will be leading the lesson with the help of coaches and skaters from the Gloucester Skating Club.
Though Mayor Watson has had some informal training on the ice, he's never had an official lesson to learn the fundamentals. To get the Mayor gliding with ease, he will be taking a CanSkate lesson.
CanSkate is Skate Canada's learn-to-skate program and is designed for beginners of all ages. It provides the skills needed to develop strong basic skating skills and prepares skaters for virtually every ice sport.
Fans can buy their tickets for the Canadian Tire National Skating Championships online at www.capitaltickets.ca, by phone at 1.877.788.FANS (3267) or 613.599.FANS (3267), or in person at the Canadian Tire Centre box office.

No, this isn't a link to an as yet undiscovered 2009 calendar for our female readers. It is a call to our defensive backs that, if the Horns are to hang on to the precious #1 ranking, they are ALL going to have to step up and be men.
Why the DB's in particular?
Because of how Oklahoma State runs their offense.
I broke down the OSU-Missouri game tape to get an idea about the X's and O's involved in slowing down the Cowpokes (details after the jump). Bottom line: OSU likes to find the single coverage matchups and throw the ball high so that their tall, athletic receivers can outjump or shield off the DB's and thus outplay them for the ball. A large fraction of OSU's touchdown passes in the red zone and passes for first downs on third and long are of this nature. If the Horns want to stop the Cowboys, they are going to have toi find a way to go up and play the ball. That means you Deon Beasley. And you too, Ryan Palmer and Earl Thomas. If there is a weakness in the Texas secondary right now, it's playing the ball effectively in the air, and if the DB's don't step up and work on finding the ball in the air and being absolutely determined to get it, the game will be a shootout for sure.
OSU likes to run, as we've all read. They like to run so much that they are in 1 or 2 TE formations with one RB (11 or 21 personnel for you jargonmeisters) more than half the time on second and third downs even with more than 5 yards to go. Even with 2 TE, two WR's are often split wide on the same side of the field, which puts 3 potential receivers in pattern in a small area of the field, which can create confusion and most importantly, single coverage on one of the two WR's. Mike Gundy and his offensive coordinator do a great job of making sure that the receiver getting single coverage is Dez Bryant.
The reliance on TE dominated formations means Texas will have to have a 4-3 defense on the field most of the time to control the run. The 4-2-5 that the Horns used so successfully in the second half against OU and nearly all game against Missouri is unlikely to be the most effective defense against OSU. A 4-3 defense puts 3 DB's on 3 WR's plus a safety to help the LB covering the TE. Because of the threat of the run and the need for the LB's to read run first and then drop into coverage, one of the OSU wide receivers is single covered on almost every play.
What all this means is that Zac Robinson can just trhrow the ball up and let the receivers outplay the usually smaller DB's for the ball.
What the Horns must do.
Jam the OSU receivers to buy more time for the pass rush to disrupt throws. This could be tough on Dez Bryant because he often lines up back from the line of scrimmage and is too quick and too strong to jam easily. However, it's a strategy that might take the rail-thin Davis (6-5, 185) out of the equation and free up a saftety to help over the top of Bryant
The DB's must look for the ball - just being in front of the receiver won't stop Robinson from making the throw. They have to want the ball. They have to think of the victory being at stake on every throw, because it just might be.
