PENSACOLA, Fla. (AP) - A Florida Panhandle sheriff's deputy is accused of hitting her son with her department-issued baton.
Escambia County Deputy Mildred Blanche Goodwin is charged with cruelty toward a child. She posted $2,000 bond Friday. She was ordered not to have any contact with her son.
The child's age was not released.
Sheriff's spokesman Chris Welborn says an investigation showed that Goodwin's actions met the statutory requirements for child abuse. Goodwin was placed on administrative leave.
According to a sheriff's report, the child suffered injuries to his right forearm and wrist when he blocked Goodwin's attempts to strike him on the leg with the baton.

Survivors still haunted by deadly tornado 40 years later
April 3, 1974 curling club tragedy
Trevor Wilhelm, The Windsor StarPublished: Thursday, April 03, 2014
"It was the clap of thunder, and then I saw the wall," said Snelgrove, who was frozen with fear by thunderstorms for years later. "It was almost like in slow motion. You hear people say that things slow up? It was like that."
The falling wall of large commercial-sized cinder blocks consumed his friend and dropped almost right at his feet.
"The bricks just took my feet out from underneath me, slid me down the rest of the ice," said Snelgrove.
Gulak was throwing a rock when the twister hit.
"The corner of the roof started to lift," she said. "I didn't realize the wall had come down. But it was very windy. I turned around to go back to where the hack was, and the wind actually blew me back."
The lights went out. Darkness washed over curlers and spectators with the pelting rain. Screaming and wailing echoed in the blackness.
"It was chaos," said Snelgrove. "We really didn't know what was going on. Couldn't see anything. You didn't know who had been hurt, who had been killed."
After the collapsing wall kicked him to the other end of the ice, Snelgrove struggled to his feet. He managed to find Louise and his wife Eleanor in the inky darkness. He grabbed their hands. It was a long, slow stumble to the exit.
Bricks, insulation, plywood and curling stones covered the ice. Sparks spewed from the blown ceiling lights.
"I remember Bill said, 'We're going to hold hands and I'm going to lead you out the side door,'" said Gulak. "I don't know how he found the door. We were blindly following him in the dark. We got out of the building, but I still didn't really know what was going on. I still didn't realize the whole wall had come down."
She waited in the pouring rain, straining to find a glimpse of her husband.
"I was sure my husband was going to be coming and looking for me," said Gulak.
He didn't appear. Gulak, a nurse, had suffered serious injuries to her leg and back. She was ushered off to hospital. She was lying on an emergency room bed when one of the doctors she worked for approached. "He said, 'I'm really sorry to tell you this, but Keith was killed when the wall came down,'" said Gulak.
She was horrified. She was in shock. But mostly, she was in disbelief. The next day, Gulak had her brother take her back. She limped up to the edge of the building on crutches. She had to see it for herself.
"The weird thing was that all of the brooms, they were still all hanging on the wall," said Gulak. "It was strange."
The brooms were about the only thing still in place.
"You couldn't even see the ice," she said. "There was debris everywhere. Some of the victims that were under that wall that came down, they literally had to dig them out by hand." Coulson said that according to Environment Canada tornado experts, the deadly problem with the Windsor Curling Club was its construction.
The twister that hit the club was an Enhanced Fujita 1 tornado, he said. That means the peak winds ranged between 135 km/h and 175 km/h. "One of the weaker ones," Coulson said.

About internal parasites
'Internal parasites' is a fairly polite way of saying worms. Hookworms, whipworms, roundworms, tapeworms can all infect your cat. In fact, most kittens are born with roundworms and hookworms that are transmitted from their mothers.
About toxoplasmosis
Toxoplamosis (tox-oh-plaz-MO-sis) is a disease contracted by humans that's caused by a parasite frequently found in cats. Careless handling of litter is the most frequent cause.
Administering medication to cats
Many cats are a lot like children. They're lively, playful, and absolutely hate to take medicine. There are several ways to get around this. Sometimes medication can be hidden inside food, but if it's bad-tasting, your cat might simply refuse to eat it.
Caring for an older cat
As time passes, that frisky little kitten that used to scamper all around the house will start to settle down. As more years go by, playtime will decrease as naptime increases.
Caring for your cat's teeth
A cat's teeth can develop plaque and tartar just like humans' do. Chewing on dry food or raw bones is usually enough to keep teeth clean naturally, but sometimes a cat's teeth will have to be cleaned.
Common cat infections
The standard vaccination package offered by veterinarians will protect your cat against the most common and dangerous infections, like rabies, distemper, and the frighteningly named 'cat plague,' or panleucopenia (pan-loo-kuh-PEE-nee-uh).
Grooming your cat
You should decide how much time you're willing to spend grooming your cat before you get it. Short haired cats need very little; long haired breeds need a lot to remove tangles.
Identifying skin problems
Your cat probably won't develop a skin problem if you feed it a good diet, brush it frequently, and let it groom itself naturally. Some cats, however, are susceptible to allergies that can cause them to scratch, bite, and lick at themselves constantly.
Litter box training
The whole idea behind a litter box is based on a cat's natural instincts. Kitty does its business, then covers it up. If your cat is choosing somewhere other than the litter box, there could be a number of reasons.
My cat has fleas
It's possible to have fleas in your home without even having pets. They can jump onto your clothes and hitch a ride inside. Once there, you can be sure that they'll find their way to your cat.
Problems with behavior
The same things that people love about cats can cause problem behavior. Cats are curious, which leads them to explore countertops and other places where they're not welcome.
Rabies facts
Rabies is a disease caused by a virus found in the saliva of infected animals. Bats, raccoons, foxes, skunks, dogs, or cats are the most frequent carriers.
Should I declaw my cat?
Nature gave your cat claws for good reasons. They help it climb and give it a way to defend itself. If you keep your cat indoors, neither of these needs are critical.
Should I spay or neuter my cat?
Should you spay or neuter your cat? Unless you have a purebred and plan to breed it, the simple answer is yes. Each year, millions of dogs and cats are destroyed because there just aren't enough homes for them.
Taking care of eyes and ears
Whenever you groom your cat, be sure and check its eyes and ears. Some long-haired cats often need help clearing out kitty sleep from the corners of their eyes.
Travelling with your cat
There's no way to know whether or not your cat likes riding in a car until you try it. Some of them enjoy it, others don't. Before you decide to take it on a long trip, see how it reacts to short ones.
What about feline leukemia?
If your cat gets all its shots regularly, feline leukemia should never be a problem. Along with rabies and distemper, it's part of the standard shots given during vaccination.
What shots does my cat need?
Because medical terms aren't really meaningful to most people, veterinarians usually abbreviate. A new kitten will receive what's called an F-R-C-P shot, as well as another for rabies.
Which cat should I choose?
There are about 40 recognized breeds of cats, which account for only four percent of the cat population. The rest are mixed-breed. If you're planning on entering your cat in shows or other competitions, expect to pay several hundred dollars for a purebred.

To say the closing of Novack's retail store, on King Street, is unexpected might be an understatement.
While the store would usually be open throughout the week for customers to browse through travel books and purchase camping gear and outdoor wear, shoppers found themselves perplexed as to why the door wouldn't open when they tried to get in the store on Monday (Nov. 19).
In the space of a few minutes, one person comes to shop but is denied, followed by another, then another and another.
Usually the storefront windows of Novack's are decorated with the latest winter jackets, but now they covered big signs reading, "Store closing forever."
"It's kind of sad I guess seeing something that's been here forever like this just go down," said Heather Campbell, hoping to get a jump start on the crowd for the store's liquidation sale and needing to see the signs to believe it.
Although the store is closing, Novack's owners, Paul and Sandi Caplan, will still be using the building.
Like the shop has so many times in its 73 year history, it's evolving more than it is closing. People can still come to King Street and check out the city landscape through the Russian submarine periscope on the top floor, Paul told London Community News.
Opening in 1939 as a music luggage shop, Novack's has changed from an army surplus store to the outdoor outfitter it evolved into before this latest transition.
The downtown depot is going to be taken over by the company's uniform division with the travel tour side of the Novack's business sticking around as well.
"We run three complex businesses. We have the retail business, we have the uniform business, which is actually growing dramatically, and we have the adventure-travel business," Paul said, refusing to reveal his age. "I'm an old guy, how many businesses can I run? I only have so much energy."
Novack's retail has been a mainstay in London for decades and has become stagnate over the years, Paul explained, while the uniform side, which has been around for 15 years, continues to gain momentum.
As locals come into the store to buy everything from winter jackets to plastic ponchos, Novack's is shipping out uniforms for police, firefighters and security corporations in Ontario to even a mining company in Africa.
"As the uniform business is growing it's taking more and more of my time and I only have so much time," Paul said, inheriting the company from his father-in-law. "I like doing what I'm doing, but I also know I want to enjoy life at the same time."
The retail store will open again on Thursday (Nov. 22) with sale stickers on every item. "Up to 73% off," reads multiple signs in the windows, as more more people gather outside trying to get inside.
"It's not a lack of business, it's simply energy," Paul said.
The final closing of the retail aspect of the shop is expected in December when items have been liquidated.
What will the 211 King St. be after a uniform store? Not even Paul knows.
"Prediction implies magic, forecasting is empirical," he quotes a line from a book he's currently reading called the Signal and the Noise by Nate Silver. "I can't forecast today six years from now or four years from now; I could forecast what it will be six months to a year from now, but prediction, that's magic. I couldn't tell you what it's going to be."

CHARLOTTE COUNTY, Fla. - A special unit of Charlotte County Fire & EMS was first on the scene of a suspicious powder scare Monday at the Charlotte County courthouse.
The Charlotte Fire Special Operations team is often among the first to face almost any threat.
"Its become a lot more than just fighting fires and running EMS calls," said Lt. Mike Seneca.
A sheriff's office spokesperson says the substance appears to have been pills mailed from an inmate who was upset with the medication he was assigned to take. But while Monday's situation was considered ruled a low-level threat, every incident is taken seriously.
"Any call that we get to go out on and actually practice what we've been trained to do is a good call for us," Lt. Seneca said.
Everyone on the team is trained in multiple specialties, like clamping leaks, handling hazardous materials, and making dangerous rescues; all using more than just the standard set of firefighting equipment.
"From radiation detectors to air monitors to remote monitoring detectors," Lt. Seneca said. "(One device) uses infrared rays to actually shoot into the particles itself and it can actually help us determine what a substance is. It's not just fire and EMS, its chemistry here.."
The team is called the "Black Sheep," but in an age when terror could come from anywhere, having local teams ready to respond is key.
"These guys are ready in just about any situation," said Dee Hawkins with Charlotte Fire & EMS.
"It would take anywhere from two to six hours for another agency to actually come in here and do the job we did here today," Lt. Seneca said. "It's those first responders that are actually your first line of defense."

The public money needed to build the Vikings stadium is finally lined up.
After a brief delay due to a lawsuit, the state budget office announced Tuesday that it had completed the sale of $462 million in bonds to finance the nearly $1 billion stadium in downtown Minneapolis. The debt will be repaid through a combination of state and city dollars.
The public portion of the stadium cost is $498 million, but the bond total is lower because of premiums paid by investors. The Vikings' share is $477 million.
"It was a good day to be selling bonds," said Kristin Hanson, the state's assistant secretary for treasury and debt management. The sale is expected to close sometime this week.
The interest rate on the bonds, which are both tax-exempt and taxable, is 4.27 percent. They were rated AA by Standard & Poors and Fitch.
The bonds were originally slated to be sold earlier this month, but Minnesota Management and Budget Commissioner Jim Schowalter called off the sale after a last-minute legal challenge from local activist Doug Mann. The Minnesota Supreme Court tossed the suit last week.
Minneapolis will repay the debt with a suite of hospitality taxes that are currently paying down bonds on the city's convention center. The state's share is covered by a one-time tax on existing tobacco inventories and ending a corporate tax break, as well as revenues from electronic gambling.
Construction is already underway at the Metrodome site, where the new stadium will be built.

Eight people had to be rescued after going out on the Elkhorn river Sunday, despite the storm.
Investigators said an outfitter sent a group of 24 people down the river in tubs. Concerned about the storm, eight people left the river and had to abandon their tubs and walk through bean fields to the nearest road.
No one was hurt, but rescue crews said they were frustrated that people were on the river when they knew a storm was coming.
"I guess I would be asking that people start using some common sense, especially when they've been predicting the storm for the last three days," said Jim Cooke with the Waterloo Fire Department.
Cooke said most of the group left the river on private property so there will likely not be any citations.

Today at IFA ASUS announced a couple of new laptops. The first continues the refinement of the Zenbook line with an update geared around Intel's Core M line of processors. Andrei is at IFA Berlin and can hopefully provide some hands-on impressions later, but the design language looks similar to the existing 13.3" Zenbook. The big news outside of the Core M processor is that the display has been upgraded yet again, this time to a 3200x1800 QHD+ panel. Other aspects include three USB 3.0 ports, an SD card reader, micro-HDMI, and 802.11ac WiFi connectivity.

Oil exec says line could be used for tar sandsBy John Dillon
Vermont Public Radio | February 19,2013The head of a regional oil pipeline company says hes looking for new projects, including using the line to carry controversial tar sands oil across northern New England.
The Legislature is reviewing the pipeline issue amid national protests against a project that would carry tar sands oil from western Canada to the Gulf of Mexico.
Environmentalists argue that tar sands have a larger greenhouse gas footprint than conventional oil. They warn about the risk if the pipeline breaks and the oil spills.
Green groups have raised similar concerns about an existing line that runs from the Canadian border across Vermont and New Hampshire to Portland, Maine.
The line is now used to transport conventional crude oil. Larry Wilson, the chief executive officer of the Portland Pipe Line Corporation, testified recently that the company does not have plans for a tar sands project yet.
It is our desire to have a project of some kind to revitalize our pipeline company and the pipeline system, Wilson told the House Fish, Wildlife and Water Resources Committee. So we are aggressively looking at every opportunity to use these excellent assets in a way that will continue to provide for the North American energy infrastructure needs.
The National Wildlife Federation is fighting the potential project. Federation senior counsel Jim Murphy said tar sands are more dangerous than conventional oil because the heavier crude is more abrasive, is transported under higher temperatures and pressures, and is much harder to clean up if it spills.
Murphy points to an accident two years ago that dumped 1 million gallons of the thick oil into the Kalamazoo River in Michigan. He said the tar sands sank to the bottom of the river, where much of it remains.
Theyve spent more on the Kalamazoo clean-up than theyve spent on any pipeline spill in U.S. history, Murphy said. And EPA has basically said we cant clean this up. This stuff is so dirty it gets into everything. That river is fouled for generations.
Murphy said the Portland pipeline spilled oil into the Black River in northern Vermont in 1977. He said the impact of a similar spill would be far worse if the pipeline carried tar sands.
But Larry Wilson of the Portland Pipe Line Corporation told lawmakers that pipelines are the safest way to carry any kind of oil. He said the tar sands oil poses no additional danger, and does not need to be carried at hotter temperatures.
Well, its crude oil. Its a heavier oil, potentially, if we had this project, he said. And weve pumped heavy oil, and were capable of pumping it very safely.
To carry tar sands or any crude oil east to the port of Portland, Maine, the company would need to reverse the direction of the flow. Right now the line is used to ship fuel west from Portland to a refinery in Montreal.
Wilson said flow reversal poses no particular technological challenge. Hes opposed to a bill that would require the company to get a state Act 250 land use permit if the flow is reversed.
It seems discriminating to me, quite frankly, to discriminate against an opportunity to receive oil from our strongest, most reliable, friendliest neighbor, he said.
The House Fish, Wildlife and Water Resources Committee continues work this week on the pipeline Act 250 bill.

While searching for new sneakers, I decided on a pair of Pumas. I love their style and color options, and they always have the newest selections. The same goes for their website. It's chock full of flash — literally. I normally don't mind the extra attention to design — in fact I appreciate a beautifully designed website — but Puma.com has made it difficult to find any products.
Landing on the homepage, I was hypnotized by the Flash and interactive design, which must have taken months to program. It showed. (I was on slow connection and had to endure an excruciating load time.) Finally, I was shown one measly, dull-gray shoe. I gave it the benefit of the doubt and clicked on the shoe, expecting to be presented with more colors and styles to choose from. Instead, a new window popped up with no sneaker or link to the online store in sight. They'd sent me to Mongolian Shoe BBQ; a micro-site for a campaign I was unaware of. And although I noticed a trace of copy next to the gray show (after going back to the homepage to figure out what happened), it still felt like the e-tail equivalent of Outer Mongolia.
I started to wonder about Puma's online business strategy. (Did they even want me to purchase anything? Where the heck are the sneakers or online store? Where am I supposed to go now?) What did they want visitors to get out of their website? As a retail company, the obvious goal of the site would be both branding and e-commerce. In other words, to get visitors excited about their products and brand and, eventually, make a sale. I was ready to purchase, but there were too many usability issues that forced me to browse aimlessly.
A major roadblock for Puma.com com is that it's top-heavy with (beautiful) design. It's very image and Flash-oriented and, despite the demand of would-be customers in search of Puma's sneaker-line, the visitors' eyes are immediately drawn to the center Flash animation, then to the bottom icons. The small red bag representing the online store is lost amid all the colors and commotion, and the link to the online store in the left navigation is effectively hidden because it's surrounded by colorful banners. The small, light-gray text — although cool-looking — makes it difficult for visitors to shop.
So, what can Puma.com do to be a more effective e-commerce site? They need to provide a clearer driving point (define) to their online store. A simple A/B test on the homepage will have a big impact. How simple? Well, Google makes it free for all and the only thing you'll lose is time spent learning a valuable advantage over competitors and opportunity cost of course. To be most effective when making changes to a website, proper A/B testing on Google Website Optimizer is recommended.
Which page do you think would convert better?
Good post.
Its just another (one of many) example of marketers, promoters or advertisers that absolutely do not understand the media, its capabilities & its oppurtunities.
They have a very complex experience in mind for the user & the user has no say in what this experience is.
I don't thnk the Mongolian Shoe BBQ is the only micro-site. Every link or piece of the navigation seems to link to send you to a microsite or subsite or area that is otherwise removed conceptually from the homepage.
I think this is similar to a common (more common in the past) ecommerce problem. They have all this content that thay want to display to their users and they want users to drill down to it.
I came to puma – I am intersted in running – 'learn more about puma running' – I am interested in 'mens shoes' – 'lightweight' – walla! I find my shoe. Almost as an afterthought they have a 'store locator'. Something for me to do when I have found my shoe and read the stingy 19 words of carefully thought out copy. The whole process, assumming users grasp the concept of this drill down (something users continously prove that they don't grasp or appreciate) takes about 3-10 min with an above average connection made up mostly of waiting for something (you have no idea what or why) to load and standing around going huh?!.
To top it off, its an absolute drill down, you are not accomodated at all if you lost your way. Something that is almost bound to happen considering that the navigation does not tell you that you are going to a diffferent site/site-area, or what you can expect to find there.
Even ignoring the potential hurdles such a flash heavy/conceptually complex site places on anyone thinking about SEO, PPC, analytics, testting, etc., Puma.com (like a lot of flash heavy sites) operates completely in a vacume. No thought is put into how a search engine, friendly site, email, etc. might link to anything but the homepage in a 'this-is-the-puma-home page fashion. If you (the search engine, webmaster,etc.)are refering to something contained within the site, such as a product or promotion its going to be very difficult for you to refer to the information unless this is something predefined by puma as a 'topic' such as 'puma women' or 'Mongolian Shoe BBQ' and has its own micro-site.
Wow, it still amazes me how many large corporations still don't have a clue when it comes to online marketing. I just can't figure out why that is? Is the internet really still in its infancy?
I prefer your version if the point is to sell online, but i am not sure this is the final point for Puma…
Currently in the french version they change shop online to locate a store, and shop online comes next.
Anyway, i prefer the way you present the driving point
I agree with what you have said above.Sometimes, I want to buy something online. I have experienced such a time. I wanted to buy a bag on a website. A shop caught my attention at once. Frankly speaking, that image makes me totally crazily fond of. However, due to too much links, I do not know where I was and where my bag was. I gave up. Maybe I can find it by another try. No matter what, I did not. I do not know whether puma did not so well online. But if that was true, it will be a way for them loosing customers indeed. Best wishes for puma.
I think the test page provides accessibility for the customers to find the sneakers.The button at the left cornor is obvious.

Naomi or Bernie Iserman purchased this cabin in 2006
Why Naomi or Bernie Iserman chose Garrison
Bernie and I originally came up North to work with a camp called Timber Bay, a retreat center particularly for hurting youth but also for church and other various retreats. We live adjacent to Timber Bay and have made this our home. We originally built the vacation rental home for our retirement. It is only 5 miles from our home and we enjoy the creativity it takes to keep it up and running, for guests who come up North for their vacation. The new constructed part of it is about 5 years old.
What makes this cabin unique
The benefits include living next to a very popular vacation spot but also having the privacy and peace and quiet of the north woods. Its a 3 minute drive to the beach and wonderful activities around the Lake. We are surrounded by a variety of eateries, ATV and hiking and biking trails and beautiful sunsets and a star lit sky that will take your breath away.

Leveraging students' engineering expertise to bridge the gap between Soldier and system By Col. Michael E. Sloane, MAJ Toby Birdsell and Capt.(P) Tom Beyerl Project Manager Soldier Sensors and Lasers (PM SSL) is in the business of developing the most advanced maneuver and targeting sensors ever fielded. A sometimes unwanted adjunct to advancement, however, is complexity, one of the greatest enemies of usability. Recognizing this critical relationship, the PM SSL team continuously seeks opportunities, in conjunction with the U.S. Army Maneuver and Fires Centers of Excellence, to connect with current and prospective warfighters through "touch points," warfighter juries that enable the PM SSL team to tailor equipment designs to […]

Nigeria's military: officers but not gentlemen
Long ruled by the army, the west African West Africa
A region of western Africa between the Sahara Desert and the Gulf of Guinea. It was largely controlled by colonial powers until the 20th century.
West African adj. & n. powerhouse returned to civilian rule in 1999, but critics say that nearly a decade later that the "garrison mentality The garrison mentality is a common theme in Canadian literature and Canadian cinema, in both English Canada and French Canada. In texts with the garrison mentality, characters are always looking outwards and building metaphorical walls against the outside world. " still reigns and that men in uniform enjoy a large degree of impunity IMPUNITY. Not being punished for a crime or misdemeanor committed. The impunity of crimes is one of the most prolific sources whence they arise. lmpunitas continuum affectum tribuit delinquenti. 4 Co. 45, a; 5 Co. 109, a. .
Half a dozen aides to Rear Admiral Harry Aroundade dragged Uzoma Okere out of her car after she allegedly did not pull out of the way in time for the convoy of the two-star general.
Okere, 27, was beaten up and had her blouse stripped off in broad daylight in an up-market residential area of Lagos.
She sustained cuts to the head and whip lacerations to the chest and arms requiring three outpatient hospital visits.
She has started legal action against the navy.
"It was in a very bad traffic situation and the naval guys expected me to get out of their way just because they wanted to pass through," she told AFP (1) (AppleTalk Filing Protocol) The file sharing protocol used in an AppleTalk network. In order for non-Apple networks to access data in an AppleShare server, their protocols must translate into the AFP language. See file sharing protocol. .
The attack which was filmed by workers in nearby offices and posted on the Internet and shown on local television, forced President Umaru Yar'Adua to order an investigation.
"Immediately the story broke ... he ordered the Chief of Defense Staff to investigate and report back to him," YarAdua's spokesman Olusegun Adeniyi told AFP.
Days later, the country's parliament discussed the incident as a matter of urgent national importance. The lawmakers condemned the abuse of sirens by security forces and "many big men".
The bulk of the Lagos road system was built more than 20 years ago when the city had less than half its current population of some 16 million.

1. A traffic jam in which no vehicular movement is possible, especially one caused by the blockage of key intersections within a grid of streets.
2. traffic behind pickup trucks filled with surly gun-toting police.
Lagos residents are normally resigned to the practice but the assault on Okere went a step too far, with a columnist in the Tribune newspaper calling it "a case of beasts against a human being".
The main opposition Action Congress party described the attack as "barbaric, appalling and unacceptable".
The Guardian newspaper said the incident "has once again tainted taint

Okere, herself the daughter of Emmanuel Okere, a retired colonel who is now the national assembly's sergeant-at-arms, said it has taken the military a long time "to get over the days when the government was run by them".
"In Nigeria ... a garrison mentality pervades the land and men in uniform have not learned to adjust to the democratic dispensation DISPENSATION. A relaxation of law for the benefit or advantage of an individual. In the United States, no power exists, except in the legislature, to dispense with law, and then it is not so much a dispensation as a change of the law. ," said The Guardian.
The Okere attack made the headlines but it is no isolated incident.
Earlier this year, a female motorist was assaulted after allegedly failing to give way on time for the convoy of a state governor in Lagos.
Last year a navy officer shot a motorcyclist for allegedly blocking his way, also in Lagos.

(Updates with MDA forecast starting in second paragraph.)
Oct. 24 (Bloomberg) -- A cold snap in the eastern U.S. late this week may mean "above-normal heating demand," said Matt Rogers, president of Commodity Weather Group LLC.
Cooler weather will blanket much of the East, where lows of 30 to 40 degrees Fahrenheit (minus 1 to 4 degrees Celsius) can be expected from Oct. 29 to Nov. 2, Rogers said in a note to clients today. MDA EarthSat Weather also predicts the U.S. East will be cooler, with the exception of New England, where temperatures may be near normal.
"The models are still in excellent agreement on a widespread cool-to-cold push later this week," Rogers said from his office in Bethesda, Maryland.
Traders use long-range temperature predictions to gauge energy use and market fluctuations. Hot or cold weather can increase demand for heating and cooling, and power plants use about 30 percent of the nation's gas supplies, according to Energy Department data.
Heating degree days values in Boston may reach 23 by this weekend with temperatures about 8 degrees lower than normal, according to MDA, in Gaithersburg, Maryland. MDA forecasts the value to be 18 in New York, 19 in Philadelphia, 18.5 in Washington and 15 in Atlanta.
Heating degree days, calculated by subtracting the daily average temperature from a base of 65 degrees, are designed to show energy demand. Higher values mean cooler weather and more energy being used to heat homes and business.
MDA EarthSat and Commodity Weather differ on their 11- to 15-day outlooks covering Nov. 3 to Nov. 7.
Rogers predicts the northern U.S. will be cooler than normal, with lower temperatures reaching down the East Coast to South Carolina. MDA forecasts that most of the northern U.S. will be more seasonable, with some warmer-than-normal weather in Maine and northern New Hampshire and Vermont, and the coldest weather in Montana and North and South Dakota.

November 28, 2014
It came as a shock to the Jeremiah Community along Highway 7 in Letcher County.
Monday night, police say a man set his own house on fire while his wife and child were inside, and then he fired shots at them.
No one was injured and the house is a total loss, but those who knew the family say they still cannot believe what happened.
"I really think he's had a nervous breakdown," said family friend Peggy Collins.
The melted metal and charred wood show a scene that Peggy Collins never thought she would see in the 10 years she has known Lawrence Eugene Halcomb.
"It's awful for everybody that is involved because it has destroyed her family, the baby's family and Gene's life," said Collins.
Halcomb is now in jail after police say he set his house on fire with his wife and 9-month old child inside. He also fired a shotgun in their direction.
"I love them all, and I hope that everything will work out best for everybody. And I wish I knew a solution, but I don't," said Collins.
Peggy Collins is thankful everyone made it out ok, but still wonders how something like this could happen to people she loves.
Halcomb is charged with first degree arson and six counts of wanton endangerment.
He did not want to comment from jail, and we also could not locate his wife.
