CAPE CORAL- A serial burglar is off Cape Coral streets.
Police say 30 year-old Scott Krupp is responsible for a string of business and home burglaries.
Investigators say Krupp stole hundreds of dollars worth of stuff from home and businesses in the city.
Ultimately, it was Krupp's own shoe print that led police to right to his front door.
"He ran from police and jumped into a canal where one of his shoes fell to the bottom," said Lt. Tony Sizemore of the Cape Coral Police Department
A dive team recovered Scott Krupp's shoe.
Using new shoe print technology the department got last week, they were able to narrow in on Krupp.
The computer software is a database of more than 25,000 different shoes, brands, patterns.
At a crime scene, police can take a picture of the print, scan it into the system, and within minutes they know which type of shoe they have.
Even if it's a partial footprint, the computer can still narrow it down quickly.
Before, Cape police used to have to send a photo of the shoe print to a crime lab in Tampa and that could take months.
With this new technology, once police have a suspect, they can check and see if his shoe print matches ones found at the scene.
If the prints match, it helps them take another criminal off the street.
"The totality of the evidence and the circumstances really tightens the case. We're a lot better with it than we'd be without it," Lt. Sizemore said.
Krupp also left some DNA evidence at one of the crime scenes.
According to police, he cut himself when breaking into a business and left drops of blood on the floor.
Police say the DNA and footprints both matched Scott Krupp.
He's facing several burglary charges.
Cape police were able to buy the new footprint computer software with grant money they received.

Leavenworth Plaza is an open air shopping center in Leavenworth, Kansas. Opened in 1967, the mall was originally anchored by J.C. Penney, Montgomery Ward and Safeway. Duckwall-ALCO Retail Stores added a store in 1972.[1]
Montgomery Ward became Sears in 1987.[2] A movie theater was added in 1993 after Duckwall-ALCO closed.[3] J.C. Penney closed in 2003,[4] and Sears later closed as well. The mall's original owners, Copaken, White & Blitt, sold it to Colliers Turley Martin Tucker in 2008.[5] The movie theater closed in 2010, at which point more than half of the mall was vacant.[6]

Rep. Barca: Let's Find Creative Solutions for Popular Economic Development Program
"We owe it to the people of Wisconsin to maximize every possibility to fund economic development efforts that are certain to create jobs," Rep. Barca said.
Wisconsin Republicans Expand Role of State Government, Erode Local Control
"Wisconsin's reputation as a state with strong local control and unique local governments is being severely eroded by Republicans in power," Rep. Peter Barca (D-Kenosha) said.
Rep. Barca Statement on John Doe Developments
The Republican spin that this investigation is a partisan witch hunt is categorically untrue and the fact that Governor Walker is continuing to assert that point is highly misleading.
State publishes list of buildings eligible to be sold or leased
Assembly Minority Leader Peter Barca, D-Kenosha, pointed to Arizona, which in 2010 helped close a budget hole by selling and then leasing its state office buildings, only to have the governor propose buying them back two years later.
WEDC/DWD award recipients hosting Walker fundraisers
"It really does not pass the smell test, so to speak," said Rep. Peter Barca (D-Kenosha), who also sits on the WEDC Board. "You've got so many of his last fundraisers all being hosted by people who were given taxpayer funds."
State halts expanded tax credits for rehabbing historic buildings
"I am committed to working aggressively with our WEDC board and various economic partners to ensure we can continue this popular program and create jobs for Wisconsin families," said Assembly Minority Leader Peter Barca (D-Kenosha).

Representative Peter Barca is a lifelong citizen of Kenosha and Somers. He currently represents much of the City of Kenosha and portions of the City of Racine, Town of Somers,
Village of Mount Pleasant, and Village of Elmwood Park
as the State Representative from the 64
Assembly District.
Peter currently serves as the Assembly Minority Leader. He had previously served as Majority Caucus Chairman and as Co-Chairman of the Joint Legislative Audit Committee.
Representative Barca returned to the state legislature in 2009, representing the district he had previously held from 1985 until 1993. During his initial tenure in the State Capitol, Peter authored and passed a wide variety of proposals covering diverse and important issues such as economic development, protection for seniors and the disabled, education, employment and job training, criminal justice, and environmental protection. He also worked closely with the Kenosha delegation to help pass legislation that led to the creation of the Lakeview Corporate Park, which helped to attract dozens of new businesses that then created thousands of jobs.
Peter also chaired several special legislative committees that led to Wisconsin's nationally recognized welfare reform program, implemented the award-winning 'one stop shop' employment and training systems, and developed the roadmap for rail services between Kenosha and Milwaukee.
When Congressman Les Aspin was appointed Secretary of Defense in 1993, Peter won the open congressional seat in a special election and served in the U.S. House of Representatives. After that he served as the Midwest Regional Administrator of the U.S. Small Business Administration as part of the Clinton Administration. He was also the leader of the National Regulatory Fairness Program, an initiative which included more than fifty company Presidents throughout the country aimed at making regulatory enforcement small business friendly.
Representative Barca began his career as the Director of the Friendship Camp, a camp for children with disabilities, as a teacher, and later as a team leader for students with special needs. He also served as an employment coordinator. Peter attended school at the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee for his undergraduate coursework, received his masters in public administration and educational administration from the University of Wisconsin-Madison, and attended graduate school at Harvard University. The past six years he has served as a Vice President and then President of Aurora Associates International, an international project management company.
Peter has been very involved in the greater Kenosha area, and has served on a wide number of non-profit boards and commissions, including Kenosha Family and Aging Services Inc., the Girl Scouts Nominating Committee, the Foundation Board for UW-Parkside, KenRail, and the United Way. He also chaired a feasibility committee that led to the creation of the Boys and Girls Club of Kenosha.
Representative Barca is an active member of St. Peters Parish and has coached and managed many youth athletic teams for baseball, soccer, and basketball. He and his wife have a son at Fordham University and a daughter who recently graduated from the University of Wisconsin-Madison.

Chris Davis went 4 for 4 with two home runs, and the Baltimore Orioles overcame three homers by Ryan Zimmerman to beat the Washington Nationals 9-6 on Wednesday night.
Former Virginia baseball players Ryan Zimmerman and Mark Reynolds each hit a home run Saturday, as Zimmerman's Nationals topped Reynolds' Indians 7-6.
Zimmerman homered to right center in his first at-bat of the night, giving Washington a 1-0 lead. In the bottom of the fourth, with the Indians down 5-2, Reynolds sent a solo-shot into the stands in left to bring Cleveland within two.
In the top of the ninth, Anthony Rendon put the Nationals up for good with his first major league home run.
Two pitches after his foul popup fell between the Indians' first baseman and second baseman Jason Kipnis, Rendon homered into the Nationals' bullpen off Vinnie Pestano to stun the Indians. It was the seventh home run of the game, and the fifth for the Nationals.
Mike Aviles doubled with two outs, but first baseman Adam LaRoche made a leaping catch of Michael Bourn's line drive to end the game.

Now that you mention Rajneesh , I remember trying to pick up one of his books but did not know enough or cared so did not bother.
I think I will now. Just curious why 5 books? and which ones would you recommend.? I am guessing he wrote many books and I would have hard time trying to pick 2.
I hope his books are better then Deepak Chopra's

No...I don't like reading books that "impact" my life..for me reading is escaping from real life, and entering a world where anything is possible. It is a way to escape, and forget everything.

"Did any book create impact on you?" on book that impacted me is light in august by william faulkner and the harry potter series
Do you read books ? i don't like to read but i like harry potter and just random best sellers
Did any book change your life? books didnt exactly change my life but it did give me a realization of what i have and how lucky i am
Did any book save you from problems? books i read don't necesarrily save me from any problems..they're just leisure reading
Did any book help you in removing your confusions or did it add much more confusion? after reading faulkner, i get totally lost but when reading JK Rowling i never get lost
Do you say we read books but we don't take the content seriously? well it depends on what books we are reading and what the content..if it's something like the Da Vinci Code then some readers might take it serious but books like harry potter, no one should take those seriously
-just my thoughts and views

Dear Friends!!
My topic for the debate is
"Did any book create impact on you?"
Do you read books ?
Did any book change your life?
Did any book save you from problems?
Did any book help you in removing your confusions or did it add much more confusion?
or Do you say we read books but we don't take the content seriously?
Kindly put your views in your leisure.
with best wishes,
there have been many books that i have enjoyed reading, but two books that really got to me were 'Wuthering Heights' and 'Of Mice and Men', great books i say if you have not already them then do so, because everything in it is so great. I read books now and again actualy very less now as the only things i do read are history books for assignments lolz, i suppose they save me from failing my course . I suppose some books are can be taken seriously depending on the genre but personally books are a part of entertainment or knowledge and should not be taken too seriously, yes some books can and do leave an impact but overall read a book and enjoy it.

WASHINGTON (AP) -- New research shows that low-income students who attend urban public high schools generally do just as well as those with similar backgrounds who attend private schools.
A study done by the nonpartisan Center on Education Policy looked at 12th-grade achievement tests in core academic subjects.
The finding is in line with some other recent studies, but it conflicts with a larger body of research over the years that shows private-school students generally do better than those in public schools.
The new research not only included income levels but also looked at other family characteristics, such as whether a parent takes part in school life. The report says when the other factors are included, the private-school advantage goes away.
The researchers tracked 1,000 low-income students over a period of years, along with parents and teachers, as part of a federal research effort.

Aphrodite's Tears Lyrics - Salem
Review The Song (1)
Tender moments are a test to step
Lively through this dark divide
Falling over ourselves,
I kiss the ground 'till the pain subsides
Staggering and stammered are these words,
Do we so speak loud enough to make sure we're heard?
The truth and the meaning are corrupt and deceiving from spite
And we've yet to determine who's right
I'm trying - Screaming at the walls she's crying!
The tainted wings of a saint are hard to mend
Under the veil of this evening's pretense
Exact you bitterness and lay me out
On your bed of nails
Because the harder we try and the harder we push
Is the way that we fail
I've opened up my veins of thruth to you
Strafe the scars and the pain, now they're cut like new
Your trust is wanning
Caught in the rain and the blood is streaming

You're right, Carrie. Not eungoh has been made of the healing powers of laughter. And now we can add beans to the things that make us laugh.Not eungoh has been made of the hot gift of soup, either, but there you have it.At truly difficult times of my life I haven't started crying for fear I could never stop. Just food for thought.

A South Carolina middle school teacher has turned himself in to authorities to face assault and battery charges after he was accused of spanking three students.
Forty-eight-year-old Chris Petrasek turned himself in to sheriff's deputies late Wednesday morning. Petrasek is a seventh-grade math teacher at Oakridge Middle School in Lake Wylie.
The area's schools have a policy against using corporal punishment or any physical force to discipline students.
The students said they were spanked for getting a low grade, missing a question or talking out of turn.
The boys say they were spanked between September and November.
Petrasek also coached wrestling at the school. He's been on leave since Nov. 22. Petrasek had worked in the Clover school district since 2007. Lake Wylie is about 85 miles north of Columbia.
