A man who pleaded guilty earlier this year to escaping from a Mitchell police car has been sentenced to three years in prison for violating terms of his probation.
23-year-old Roderick Rouse admitted to leaving addiction treatment and failing to enroll in a state sobriety program.
Authorities say Rouse in May squeezed through a small, unlocked plastic window separating the back and front seats of the squad car and fled, eluding officers for about an hour.
Rouse was given credit for 82 days he already has served behind bars.

This study applies attribution theory to examine public appraisals of the president. To date, most political science research on attribution theory has focused on domestic policy, and no work has considered both domestic and foreign policy domains in tandem. To fill this gap, we formulate and experimentally test a series of hypotheses regarding the level of responsibility and credit/blame that individuals attribute to the president in both policy domains across varying policy conditions. We also consider how party compatibility affects people's attribution judgments. Our findings provide a new contribution to the literature on political attributions, executive accountability, and public perceptions of presidential performance.

While Berlin gears up for Christmas, politicians still can't quite let daily business go. Angela Merkel's conservative CDU party picks up a bit of steam, while Germany looks ahead to federal elections in the fall.
There's a cold fog hanging over Berlin - with darkness already descending on the capital by early afternoon. Normally, the government quarter is crowded with cars, and politicians, lobbyists and journalists run back and forth on the streets throughout the day. But now it's nearly empty - with many people having already packed up and left town, heading to friends and relatives elsewhere for the holidays. Those still finishing up work here have their suitcases sitting next to their desks at the ready.
Christmas is around the corner, but politics still rule in Germany - with many people already looking ahead to federal elections scheduled for Fall 2013. Berlin-based public opinion research institute Infratest dimap, for instance, conducted its last poll of the year this week, surveying 1,008 representative German citizens about who they would currently give their vote to in the election.
Conservative CDU picks up pace
According to the survey, German Chancellor Angela Merkel's Christian Democratic Union (CDU) party and its Bavarian sister party CSU could have a particularly merry Christmas: it managed to increase its popularity by one percentage point from the last survey on December 6, bringing it to 40 percent. The rival Social Democratic party (SPD) stands unchanged at 30 percent, while the Greens have yielded a little to 13 percent. The Left party (Die Linkspartei) would also stand unchanged at 13 percent if the election were to occur this Sunday.
The Free Democratic party (FDP) and the Pirate party (Piratenpartei) do not have as much to celebrate, as they have not managed to get themselves out of their slump. According to the Infratest survey, the FDP would grab four percent of the vote, the Pirates only three percent. Neither party would clear the five-percent hurdle to secure seats in the German parliament.
Different options
Although two other research institutes - Forsa and Insa - registered the FDP this week at five percent, it is little comfort to the free-market liberal party, which is currently in a governing coalition with the CDU. For FDP party leader Philipp Rösler, that means using the holidays to gear up for the traditional meeting on the Feast of the Epiphany - January 6 - in Stuttgart. There, delegates will expect Rösler to lead the party out of their muck in the electoral year. The FDP will be put to its first test as early as January 20, when Lower Saxony holds state elections. Things will get tough for Rösler if the FDP does not do well in that vote.
Given the weak state of the FDP at the moment, it is unlikely the CDU would continue in coalition with the party after next fall's election. And a CDU gaining in force could also give a possible SPD-Greens coalition a run for its money.
So politicians are wrapping up this year with in various moods. For German Chancellor Angela Merkel, the holidays mean a few days of rest and relaxation - something she can use before things pick up in 2013 for the election.
Peer Steinbrück is known as an outspoken and quick-witted centrist - one who's not uncontroversial within his own party, the SPD. His party is set to nominate him officially on Sunday as candidate for chancellor in 2013. (08.12.2012)
It's Angela Merkel's day - she was just re-elected for the seventh time as head of her party, the Christian Democratic Union. The chancellor is the party's undisputed face, and policy head. (05.12.2012)
The President of the World Jewish Congress Ronald Lauder first criticized the decision by a Swiss museum to accept a recently found trove of artworks stolen by the Nazis. He tells DW why he now welcomes the decision.
Following a resounding victory for pro-Western parties in October, Ukraine's new parliament has convened for the first time. It is set to select a prime minister and speaker.
It's meant to be such a gentlemanly game, cricket. But the death of Phillip Hughes shows the sort of risks that batsmen are confronted with on a daily basis. It's something we take for granted, says DW's André Leslie.
Lower growth forecasts for Europe's biggest economy haven't kept Germany's jobless figures from sinking. The latest data for November marked a return to employment levels not seen in three years.

The new Galveston City Council is heading in a different direction.
You can tell by its discussion about the city's Finance Committee.
GALVESTON — A recent Texas A&M University study found that out-of-county visitors to the park spent nearly $4 million in Galveston County last year. That money helped create nearly 58 full- and part-time jobs in the county, according to the study.
TEXAS CITY — A little before 11 a.m. at Harvest Bible Church in Texas City, David Henson and the other volunteers were giving thanks and getting ready to serve food to more than 100 homeless and low-income people at Mission Texas City's yearly Thanksgiving feast.
Three Galveston County schools remained in the hunt for a state championship after the second round of the playoffs this past week. Some notable notes from the area round contests included:
GARLAND — After their run all the way to Saturday's Class 6A volleyball state final match, two Clear Falls Knights were named to the 6A all-state tournament team.
Last Wednesday, our little band of Kiwanians did something we've done for several years.
The Republican Party did very well in the recent elections.
More and more people across Galveston County are putting up their Christmas decorations well before the Thanksgiving turkey is even in the oven.

Barn lost, two homes saved in Loudon 3-alarm fire
When they arrived at 7027 School St. just after 3:20 p.m. Tuesday, fire crews found a 30-by-40-foot barn fully involved in flames, Wright said.
Wright quickly called for a third alarm to bring enough firefighters to the scene to handle a potentially more serious situation.
A large group of the town's firefighters — full-time and call firefighters — were at the station at the time, which helped, as did the home's location, just down the road from the fire station.
Firefighters stopped the flames in an ell of the home. A huge fire that had destroyed the barn damaged only a small area of the home over a kitchen, and went no further.
The homeowner was outside the home, having been inside on the opposite side of the adjoining house when the fire broke out, he said.
One firefighter suffered dehydration fighting the flames and was treated at Concord Hospital and released.
The cause of the fire hasn't been determined, but the fire is not considered suspicious in nature, he said.
Town firefighters were joined by fire crews from Allenstown, Belmont, Boscawen, Bow, Chichester, Concord, Canterbury, Epsom, Laconia, Northfield, Pembroke and Pittsfield.

The UK Statistics Authority is currently assessing the usefulness of the statistics on charity tax reliefs produced by HM Revenue and Customs, but insists the timing has nothing to do with the proposed cap on charitable tax reliefs.
Emma Bowditch, a spokeswoman for the UKSA, said the assessment is simply part of its ongoing examination of various legacy national statistics, as required by legislation, and the fact that this one has come around now is not connected in any way to the proposed cap.
"It's pure coincidence," she said.
Bowditch encouraged any charity representatives that use the tables to contribute to the assessment, so that HMRC can improve the statistics and identify any gaps.
More information on the assessment, along with links to the tables being assessed, can be found here.
The user survey can be accessed here. It will be open until Monday 11 June 2012.

The insatiable demand for smartphones, tablets, and other connected devices is generating staggering amounts of mobile data and placing a crushing burden on networks. One barometer is the recently released Cisco Visual Networking Index (VNI), which predicts that global mobile data traffic will increase 13-fold from 2012 to 2017, reaching 11.2 exabytes per month. In parallel, the use of Wi-Fi for Internet access is also exploding, as more mobile devices are Wi-Fi enabled, the number of public hotspots expands, and user acceptance grows.
The two trends are intersecting in crucial ways.
Until recently, most technologists and mobile-industry executives viewed Wi-Fi as the "poor cousin" to licensed mobile communications. And they saw little role for it in mobile networks or their business. The upsurge of mobile-data traffic has changed all of that. Most mobile operators now realize that offloading data traffic to Wi-Fi can, and must, play a significant role in helping them to avoid clogged networks and unhappy customers.
Mobile operators understand the business case behind off-loading data traffic to cheaper Wi-Fi—deferring significant capital expenditures for further build-out of the licensed network. However, they ask, is there more to Wi-Fi than just data offload? And, more appropriately, can they actually make money from Wi-Fi—turning a cost of doing business into profitable business models? The simple answer is, yes. In fact, the Cisco® Internet Business Group (IBSG) has identified and built business cases with service providers around 15 additional ways to benefit from Wi-Fi, beyond data off-loading.
IBSG's white paper, Profiting from the Rise of Wi-Fi, describes these business models in more detail, but the 15 business models basically fall into four different categories:
- Business Effectiveness—using Wi-Fi access networks to decrease operational costs or improve customer retention and service differentiation
- End-User Services—solutions for business and consumer end users using Wi-Fi for internet connectivity for their devices (e.g., smartphones, tablets, laptops)
- Intercarrier Wholesale—providing Wi-Fi-based services to other service providers, (e.g., cellular network operators, Wi-Fi providers)
- Value-Added Services—enhancing basic Wi-Fi access with additional services and alternative funding models
As the pervasiveness and customer adoption of Wi-Fi continue to grow exponentially, these new business models are providing real and meaningful opportunities for service providers. For example, we are seeing home broadband providers improve their customer retention by 10 to 15 percent through bundling free public Wi-Fi access with their broadband service. In addition, we believe that by offering a Wi-Fi enabled "Business Anywhere" service, operators can generate $10‑15 per business user per month. In the retail setting, delivering enhanced, value-added services will bring an incremental $100-150 per store; this is on top of the $50-250 that operators charge per wireless access point to run a managed Wi‑Fi service for retailers.
But don't take our word for it. End users tell us that they want these new Wi‑Fi business models and see great value in them. Unique mobile-customer research by IBSG (What Do Consumers Want From Wi-Fi) revealed that mobile users appreciate the lower cost and unlimited data usage of Wi-Fi and greatly value the flexibility and convenience that it offers. In particular, customers were interested in the national/international roaming business models and the Wi-Fi value-added retail offerings. These, consumers believed, would make them more efficient, save them money, and enhance their shopping experiences. Among U.S. broadband subscribers who identified that free public Wi-Fi was part of their subscription, a remarkable 61 percent told us that the inclusion of Wi-Fi was very or extremely important in their choice of broadband provider. The inclusion is not only a good way to attract subscribers; it is also a good way to keep them.
Of course, not all business models are attractive to all service provider segments. Business models will need to be aligned to the different industry segments, while priorities are set and a starting plan created. We feel that our research, insights, and recommended approach will arm SPs with guidelines for setting priorities and determining which strategy is best for making real money from Wi‑Fi.

Is Jennifer Love Hewitt Replacing Mariska Hargitay on 'Law & Order: SVU'?
The former 'Ghost Whisperer' star is in talks to step in as the new partner of Elliot Stabler (Meloni), after Det. Olivia Benson (Hargitay) is promoted in the precinct to a supervising position mid-season, TV Line reports.
Hargitay has signed a deal to return for the 13th season of 'SVU,' but working fewer hours at the same salary. Meloni hasn't yet signed his deal, but is reportedly asking for a raise.
Hewitt has also not signed a deal yet. The actress appeared on the series earlier this season during an episode that brought attention to the problem of rape kit backlogs in police precincts across the country; Hewitt played a woman who was stalked and raped by a man for 15 years.
Hewitt, 32, was nominated for a Golden Globe for her starring performance in the Lifetime TV movie 'The Client List.'
Hargitay, 47, was awarded an Emmy in 2006 for her 'SVU' role.

P-L-E-A-S-E, Do not seperate Mariska and Chris Meloni! They have the perfect "match-up" as partners! They already have the perfect cast in place, DON'T SCREW IT UP!!!! The network is going to end up losing all the loyal viewers!

what's a SVU?

No Olivia, no show.
- Monday 16 MayBy Meghan
I have an idea. Why don't they just give more screen time to the characters they already have, like Munch and Finn. I would love to see that.

Jennifer could be Amber Tamblyns stunt double. Talk about Pear shapped! WOW. Soon they will be wearing Hillary Clinton suits!
- Monday 16 MayBy Betty Mama
I watch L & O for Mariska Hargitay, and I have missed her being seen more on the show. L&O SVU is nothing without Stabler and Benson - they ARE the show. Might as well cancel it than to attempt to replace them. I barely watched it when Hargitay was out with her baby. No use even trying NBC!
- Monday 16 MayBy Yi
JLH is nice, likeable and attractive but I don't think that she is much of an actress. SVU would not be doing justice to the show by hiring her.
- Monday 16 MayBy Lucy
Please no. Not that incipid Jennifer. She will not be convincing as a cop especially in special unit.
- Monday 16 MayBy Carol
If Hargitay is replaced by Hewitt, the show will indeed meet it's demise. Remember what happened when they replaced Stepfanie Kramer's character on Hunter? The charisma and the sexual tension just was NOT the same. Benson and Stabler are the Dee Dee and Rick of this generation...you can't improve on perfection.
Just end the show if we can't have the characters that we've grown to consider as family. Leave the show with a cliffhanger and not torture the fans with something that will leave a bad taste in their mouths. Cliffhangers always leave the door wide open to a reunion show years down the line...
I know nothing about JLH, so this isn't about her or her acting ability...I just say, if it ain't broke, don't fix it. And if you can't fix it, get rid of it...

if olivia goes, so do my husband i. if elliot goes, so do my husband and i. next would be ice-t. and then the rest of the guys. it is the cast that makes this show and they way they interact with each other. but olivia and elliot are the main stars and the main attraction. i have been waiting for something to happen between them, but maybe it's just as well that it doesn't. i don't know. but i do know that without the two of them, that show is over for me.
- Monday 16 MayBy JLH
i think Bristol should get the role.
- Monday 16 MayBy badass
if what I've always read is true, JLH sleeps with all her leading men, if that's hating men, she can hate on me all she wants.
- Monday 16 MayBy Kai Ferano
I've never watched 'Law & Order' but Hargitay is a fine, strong actress. Her mother, Jayne Mansfield, would be very proud of her. Jennifer Love Hewitt, whom I enjoyed in 'Ghost Whisperers,' is absolutely not the right person for the role, unless she fools everyone. We shall see...

if they do that then i wont watch anymore... i dont know what the problem is with nbc.. she cant act.. her way out of a paper bag...

Illinois pension crisis deal announced
By Jim Hagerty
Staff Writer
Illinois lawmakers have reached a deal to solve the state's $100 billion pension problem, a spokesman for House Speaker Michael Madigan (D) reported Wednesday, Nov. 27.
Details most of the plan's details were not announced, however, Democratic and Republican insiders said a memo explaining the deal will be sent out Friday, Nov. 29.
"A deal has been made," a Democratic insider e-mailed Wednesday. "It's one that has been worked on since this summer by both parties."
The agreement is expected to save the state about $160 billion over the next 30 years and changes the retirement age. The plan also replaces the 3 percent annual cost-of-living increase with one that's equal to the rate of inflation.
Illinois' pension crisis has been about 35 years in the making. As the state's credit rating continued to fall, available cash to fund pensions of public employees became less available, resulting missed and shorted payments. Although the problem has been widespread throughout the country, the predicament in Illinois is, by far, the nation's worst.
The majority of the problem can be attributed to the fact that Illinois funds about 150 percent more public pensions than most other states. Illinois is also one of states that gives special protection to public employees in its constitution.
According to the State of Illinois Constitution, public pensions are guaranteed from the time workers are hired. That means even when there's no money, the state must still pay.
In 1996, former Gov. Jim Edgar (R) instituted a system whereby the state would make graduated annual pension payments lawmakers said would make the fund solvent by 2045. Several manipulations and payment holidays later and Edgar's plan was gutted. Legislators tried to stop the bleeding but ran into a buzz saw in the form of the SEC and the commission charged Illinois with securities fraud.
The state was charged with failing to disclose to investors the nature of the pension crisis and the risk when it sold more than $2 billion worth of municipal bonds from 2005 to 2009.
House and Senate lawmakers have been told to return to Springfield Tuesday Dec. 3.

The New Year is fast approaching and it's time for some wild, speculative predictions on API Management for 2014. As I mentioned in earlier posts, the space is has been rapidly maturing over the second half of 2013 with larger vendors such as IBM, Tibco and Intel making big moves. In Q3, 2013 Gartner sized the standalone API management market for 2013 at about $100M (70MM in 2012 with 40% expected growth).
The total market size as estimated here may seem small but this market intersects with the more traditional, and larger ($474M in 2012), SOA governance market because API management products both complement SOA governance and act as substitutes. The growth and success of API management programs, both public and internal, cause Enterprises to look at how they were handling their existing non-managed SOAP & REST APIs. This second look raises questions about how APIs and interfaces might be better managed in the future, especially when you have to address new demands and channels such as different screen types, developer communities, customers, partners, and devices. So what will 2014 bring? Here are my six API management predictions for 2014.
- SOA will reincarnate itself or die a second time – Services are alive and well and service orientation has reached the plateau of productivity, but unless Enterprises find a way to socialize APIs locked up in their existing SOA governance systems, these incumbent products will be quickly passed over in favor of new ways of sharing APIs – a simple developer portal. This services evangelism race is about marketing interfaces to developers and at the starting line developer portals are the Tesla Model S and SOA registry/repositories are the U-Haul. One vehicle you want to drive and the other you drive only when you have to. If you don't believe me, try searching a UDDI directory and compare that experience to this. The prediction here is that traditional SOA governance solutions will evolve to compete on experiences and improved sharing of API metadata or die trying.
- Internal API management will be the silent killer app – We have seen quote after quote this year from Netflix, and Programmable Web that Internal API management, which translates into a shared services layer for use by internal applications, is one of the largest, albeit hidden use cases. For newcomers to the space peppered with exciting stories of public and open developer programs, this is a shock, but only because internal API management programs aren't advertised. The prediction here is that your company is probably already running with hundreds of internal APIs that lack management, are difficult to discover and document, and hard to use by internal developers, existing applications and partners. API management opportunities are likely under your nose in the form of exposing these APIs outside or helping your organization share data internally more efficiently.
- Mobile enablement will lead the way – APIs expose data to mobile devices. Without them, all of the 'app' experiences we have on tablets and smart-phones would be silo'd. Think back to the days of PC computing before modems or the Internet. That is what an app would be like without an API today. Almost every Enterprise we talk to has a mobile strategy that involves moving traditional IT services to an API layer to make new experiences available to their employees, powered by APIs. The prediction here is that second to internal use, mobile enablement will drive the use of API management and security for external interfaces in 2014.
- Security concerns will take center stage – As screen types proliferate, Enterprises will need a strategy and approach for API security that covers more than just enabling "OAuth". As internal systems participate in API management, a security layer will be needed to decouple perimeter defense, denial of service protection, JSON attack protection, compliance, authentication, authorization and message level security. Otherwise, the ability for an Enterprise to scale its APIs externally will be limited by number of security developers and their expertise in the myriad middleware systems and programming languages in use at the Enterprise. The prediction here is that in order to scale their API management programs Enterprises will need to implement an API governance and delivery tier, whether on-premise or in the cloud – done with or without a vendor product.
- IoT could be a bull in the china shop – IoT promises a vision of Wireless sensor networks and low powered devices becoming part of the Industrial Internet. Once enabled, data from sensors could and eventually be exposed through APIs. If sensor data converges on REST (or SOAP) as the final consolidation point demand for API management could skyrocket beyond what we have seen to date, possibly altering the Gartner market size estimates in a big way.
- API management will be a journey – In 2014, API management will evolve to a suite or platform approach, rather than point tools and the vendor or vendors that can best easily fit into a heterogeneous environment with flexible products will be best positioned to compete. Here is what the journey might look like: Enterprises can start anywhere with API management – some may begin with an open developer program, move to internal API management and then eventually deploy API management in a hybrid architecture. Or, some Enterprises may start only with internal API management and devise a business case and marketing plan for long-tail exposure of their products through an open API developer program. Whenever they start, API management will be an enabler of a particular business model, either driving down costs or providing new sources of value.
