An armed jewelry store robbery allegedly committed by two Philadelphia men near Williamsburg, Va., last week went wrong on so many levels, it's a wonder how Oxford Circle resident Eric D. Roach lasted more than two days on the lam.
It's a whole new world out there, thanks to 9/11 and the Internet, and the police are on top of it.

I am confused last month i had my period March 18 and i am normally 28 days cycle so i am expecting to have my period this month somewhere in 15 or 16 but i didn't have it until 4-23 which started really really light that i didn't used a pad and it just left light brown color on my liner but when i wipe after i urinating i see a blood on the tissue and it's red, i just started using pad on the third day but it's not like the normal period i used to have, this time i don't feel any cramping which i usually get every time i have my period. My husband and i used natural method and this is the first time that my period started really late. Could i be pregnant? I am still bleeding and sometimes i see a small blood clot when i urinate. I also feel nauseous and sometimes i feel like i'm sleepy and tired even when my bleeding/period started? I already had one pregnancy but i never experience this when i had my son so i'm confused and worried at the same time coz i'm not sure if i am having my period, miscarriage or implantation bleeding.

Get Organized NOW for Summer Family Camping
April 6, 2014 by Cynthia Baum · Leave a Comment
We are getting organized now for our summer family camping trip in May for Memorial Day. Why now, a month and a half early? Well, we have kids, for one, and we have things that we need to buy, so getting organized ahead of time is the best way to save some money on all the expenditures that inevitably come along with summer family camping. We plan to kick off the summer by camping with friends at the lake this year. I have already started making a mental checklist as to what I plan to bring. It's a good idea when summer family camping with kids to start thinking about what you will need, ahead of time, for many reasons. For instance, water shoes are a must for kids to wear at the lake. Now, if I waited until the last minute, I would have to pay full price for a pair of water shoes that they will only use a handful of times this summer. By thinking ahead, I can start looking for water shoes (or other camping necessities) at online sales (like Camping World), thrift stores, garage... [Read more...]
So You Want to Buy an RV???
April 1, 2014 by Cynthia Baum · 2 Comments
Are you ready to make the investment for your next BIG toy? Considering buying a recreational vehicle? If so, you might want to consider first renting different styles/sizes of RVs, before making a choice on which one to ultimately purchase. There are many things to consider, including price, size (length), and type (fifth wheel, gooseneck, or ball hitch). Not to mention all of the extras, such as sliders, electronic add-ons, and such. To ensure you feel comfortable with the choice you will eventually make, why not take a couple practice runs and rent different RVs from Camping World RV Rentals? This way you will hopefully avoid having buyer's remorse once the big purchase has been made and you are "stuck" with your choice. Spend a few weekends or even weeks over the summer when you can try different RVs to really zero in on what you would feel comfortable with owning long term. Some things to take into consideration when thinking in terms of size…many campsites have a maximum length... [Read more...]
Rallies & Group Events – a Wonderful Way to Stay Connected
April 1, 2014 by Good Sam Camping · Leave a Comment
Vacationing can be an occasion to bring people together, and many campgrounds and RV resorts have special areas dedicated specifically for this purpose. From organized rallies to family reunions, group vacations are a wonderful way to stay connected and have something to look forward to year after year. Some resorts, such as Orange City RV Resort in Orange City, Florida, and Club Naples RV Resort in Naples, Florida are designed in a way that is particularly rally-friendly, which makes it easy to partition off sections of the resort or have dedicated areas for these groups. Other resorts, like Indian Creek RV & Camping Resort in Geneva on the Lake, Ohio, have an indoor, climate controlled pavilion that rally groups can utilize and which easily holds up to 250 comfortably. Groups come for varying lengths of time from a weekend to a week or more, and have full access to all the fantastic resort amenities during their entire stay.Rallies provide a sense of comradery and community...

Government spending through contracts remained the same in fiscal 2011 as it was in fiscal 2010, the Office of Management and Budget reported Feb. 24.
Agencies collectively spend $535 billion in both 2011 and 2010, the first time 13 years that federal spending had either decreased or remained flat.
"There is good reason to be optimistic that this bending of the procurement spending curve that agencies worked so hard to achieve in fiscal 2010 and fiscal 2011 will continue for the foreseeable future," Danny Werfel, controller of the Office of Federal Financial Management at OMB, wrote today in post on the OMBlog.
Agencies are using smart contracting strategies, such as strategic sourcing, while reducing spending on administrative activities, such travel, IT and printing, Werfel wrote.
Agencies will be well on their way to meeting the goal of a 15-percent reduction in spending on management support services, he wrote. Those types of services include IT systems development, program management and engineering services. Spending on those services quadrupled during the George W. Bush administration.
OMB wants the reduction by the end of fiscal 2012. To reach it, the government has to bring spending down by $6.7 billion governmentwide to $37.4 billion.
"With dedicated management attention, agencies already have reversed the costly growth in this area and have brought spending down by 7 percent, or $3 billion, in just the last fiscal year," Werfel wrote.

"Straddling the genres of horror, low fantasy, and action thriller, with slight nods to The Twilight Zone and E.

Scherlokk is a lightning fast file search utility build for precise and reliable search of every file which meets the search criteria....
Apple is ruffling features by collecting search and location data from OS X Yosemite users through Spotlight features that some argue should be off by default.
UPDATED: The sapphire supplier still has $85M in cash, but the company's stock has fallen more than 35 percent over the last month.
In iOS news this week, China is getting the iPhone 6, there's a possible launch date for Apple Pay, a bug in iOS 8 deletes iCloud documents, and some users are reporting Bluetooth issues with iOS 8.
When Apple added OTA (Over The Air) updating to iOS, it promised a simple, streamlined update experience. So why have I just spent the best part of an hour deleting apps and files to make room for iOS 8?
Apple has filed a patent in the United States for a Siri-like digital assistant interface for a desktop environment.
Can search trends tell us whether Apple hobbles old iPhones to spur consumers into upgrading? Unsurprisingly, the answer is complex.
Google and Apple crack the top 20 in patents and the search giant has a slight edge in patents awarded.
Tech firms are eyeing up the possibilities of wearable technology, and Apple has taken one of the first definitive steps in branding.
The search giant is rushing to build a substantial hardware business in its pursuit of Apple. It risks alienating its shareholders.
Malwarebytes has launched a backup service that includes scanning files for malware. It backs up multiple Windows PCs, and Android and Apple iOS devices, with optional encryption to protect your files in the cloud.
Apple, in search of new product categories, has boosted its R&D spending 33 percent for the six months ending March 31.
One U.S. law enforcement agency is struggling to snoop on messages sent by Apple devices, claiming they "cannot be intercepted." But lack of transparency on Apple's part may mean the technology giant is facing an influx of search warrants — and yet we don't know about it.
The lack of an accessible file system makes it hard to keep track of projects that use multiple files. Does Apple need to make the iOS file system accessible to all, or is there an easier way for the Cupertino giant to allow users to manage files?
A group of Apple users in the UK have launched a legal case against Google after the search giant was found to have bypassed privacy settings in the Safari browser by U.S. authorities.
[UPDATE] Social coding site's search function closes without explanation after online users pointed out that an upgrade earlier this week revealed private files and encryption keys.
The new offering, called Currents, keeps files automatically synchronized between multiple devices including Android and Apple smartphones, tablets, and personal computers.
Samsung is looking to break into the Chinese market by supplying chips as Apple begins to loosen its dependence on the rival firm.
Apple combines traditional hard drive technology with flash storage to create Fusion Drive, an intelligent hybrid storage solution that learns what you use most frequently and puts these files on the fast flash storage.
Samsung earned a minor victory in the Apple legal battle with a federal court reversing the Galaxy Nexus ban and unified search limitation.
Security researchers from AegisLab have stumbled upon a bogus Google Search themed web site, offering downloads of multiple files in exchange for a SMS sent to a premium rate number.

Jolly Pumpkin "Bam" Farmhouse Ale
You folks may have noticed that I reviewed the E.S. Bam a couple of weeks ago. For those of you who want to be privy to acronyms, that E.S. stands for "Extra Special" – in the case of the E.S. Bam, that meant more hops and more malt than the original Bam. So, tonight, I'm basically drinking the less 'special' version of that same farmhouse ale.
The pour of the Bam is a fairly light and medium cloudy golden color with a very persistent stark white head made up of tons of dense bubbles, leaving streaks of spiderwebbing all down the sides of the glass. The aroma of this beer is super sour with lots of citrus, giving us a nice burn in the nose. There is also a reasonable amount of malt presence here, lending this a slight sweetness in the scent. In the mouth, this beer is again super sour. It has some lemony tints and just a hint of sweetness, all the while making you pucker up from that sour blast. This has a lot in common with the flavor of one of those sour lemon candies, except that the sweetness isn't nearly as pronounced. And, sadly, I kinda wish it was. To me, this beer leans a bit too strongly on the primary distinguishing feature of a saison – the sourness. This certainly has sourness in spades, but it forgets a bit about the drinkability and appeal of the beer. If one really wants to know what makes a saison a saison, then this beer would be a good lesson by virtue of it's sheer sourness. However, if one is looking for a saison that will be tasty, refreshing, and make you want to keep drinking, then I don't think this is the one. Just a bit more of a malt backbone would balance the citric sourness and perhaps make this a very drinkable beer. However, this omission instead makes this beer a bit harsh and a tough beer for me to recommend. I know that Jolly Pumpkin makes a great beer, and I don't think they did something they didn't mean to do here – they are consistently fastidious with their beers, and I'm sure this is just how Jolly Pumpkin wanted this to taste. However, to my tastebuds, it isn't too high on my Farmhouse Ale Scale.

I would agree this beer is quite sour but I actually found it quite thirst quenching and refreshing. I found the aromas of the beer to be of grass, yeast, and lemon. The taste was definitely sour, though I did not find it overpowering, with some light bitterness and clove spice to round things off. It ranks as a very good beer in my book and one I have no issue picking up.
Ah the joys of beer tasting and different palettes!
I've unfortunately never been able to get my hands on the E.S. Bam. Jolly Pumpkin distribution around here is spotty.

i knew i liked this beer from the first time i tried it, though i had no idea why. i do like the citrusy elements, and dont too much miss the sweetnes as two-hearted ale was the beer i most often drank when i stumbled on the bam. but this beer is weird like beautiful music. i think that the primary flavor that was left in the palette was of mustard seed. from the aroma of the head, to the body of the beer, it is like a musty brown mustard. i think dave is right that its a thirst quencher. whereas the E.S.Bam is great as just a drink, this goes down like a meal, served best with bratwurst.

American Elements specializes in producing high purity Silicon Chunks are produced using crystallization, solid state and other ultra high purification processes such as sublimation. Standard Chunk pieces are amorphous uniform pieces ranging in size from 5-15 mm. American Elements specializes in producing custom compositions for commercial and research applications and for new proprietary technologies. American Elements also casts any of the rare earth metals and most other advanced materials into granules, rod, bar or plate form, as well as other machined shapes and through other processes such as nanoparticles and in the form of solutions and organometallics. We also produce Silicon as rod, pellets, powder, pieces, disc, ingot, wire, and in compound forms, such as oxide. Other shapes are available by request.
Silicon (atomic symbol: Si, atomic number: 14) is a Block P, Group 14, Period 3 element with an atomic weight of 28.085. The number of electrons in each of Silicon's shells is 2, 8, 4 and its electron configuration is [Ne] 3s2 3p2. The silicon atom has a radius of 111 pm and a Van der Waals radius of 210 pm. Silicon was discovered and first isolated by Jöns Jacob Berzelius in 1823. Silicon makes up 25.7% of the earth's crust, by weight, and is the second most abundant element, exceeded only by oxygen. The metalloid is rarely found in pure crystal form and is usually produced from the iron-silicon alloy ferrosilicon. Silica (or silicon dioxide), as sand, is a principal ingredient of glass, one of the most inexpensive of materials with excellent mechanical, optical, thermal, and electrical properties. Ultra high purity silicon can be doped with boron, gallium, phosphorus, or arsenic to produce silicon for use in transistors, solar cells, rectifiers, and other solid-state devices which are used extensively in the electronics industry.The name Silicon originates from the Latin word silex which means flint or hard stone.

Winnipeg Free Press - PRINT EDITION
It was the mentor who made this salesman
Retiring clothier pins success on kind boss
He's going.
But he's not leaving.
Sounds like a piece of Las Vegas stage magic but, after more than 50 years of dressing some of Winnipeg's most prominent and stylish men, haberdasher Vittorio Rossi is entitled to retire with a little trick up his cuff-linked sleeve. That's the way his success story started, though, like an old-fashioned fairy tale.
When he arrived from Europe in September 1960, just shy of his 18th birthday, his name was Vittorio Scarnecchia, not Rossi. His older brother, Nello, and sister, Erenia, were living in St. Boniface, and young Vittorio had come to stay with them, but not to stay.
Vittorio's original goal was to learn English and return home, but in the meantime, young Vittorio needed a job.
His brother-in-law, who was an orderly at St. Boniface Hospital, got young Vittorio his first job.
In the hospital laundry room..
But it was his big brother Nello who helped get him the job that would transport Vittorio to his career as a truck-driving delivery boy for Hanford Drewitt, the men's clothing store.
By day he drove all over the city delivering gentlemen's clothing and at night, he went to English classes.
By the time Vittorio was 21, he was working as a salesman. By 23, he was the top salesman. And by 24, he was the store's general manager.
He did that by doing what came naturally. While other salesmen stared in the mirror combing their hair, he worked. And as he worked, he used something else that came naturally.
His wife, Judith, whom he met in 1975 when she was a ballerina, was captivated by what she calls his "European flair." Vittorio credits what he calls his manner -- that European flair -- to his upbringing.
"My mom taught me to show respect for people."
What I'll call his stylish respect has always come with the kind of big smile that still makes his eyes sparkle like the Pellegrino mineral water he prefers over lunch. Which is what we were having last week -- lunch over pasta and Pellegrino -- when he got into the other reason he succeeded so young and so fast.
He was given the gift of someone who treated him the way his mother had.
Like a son.
Hanford Drewitt partner Ralph Drewitt was the man who hired Vittorio when his last name was still Scarnecchia and he couldn't speak English.
Drewitt was the someone we all need when we're young; the someone who gave him a chance to succeed.
But Drewitt did more than that.
He recognized Vittorio's ability, nurtured it and, perhaps most importantly, believed in him.
"He taught me the fundamentals of our industry," Vittorio recalled.
"He saw something good. Not a day would go by when he didn't give me a slap on the ass and say, 'You're doing a good job.' "
Someone once said it's clothes that make the man. Ironically, Vittorio Rossi's own success story is less about how he dressed them than who helped him learn to do it.
But you probably still have some questions, as I did.
Why did Vittorio Scarnecchia change his name to Vittorio Rossi?
Because Rossi was his mother's maiden name and it was easier to spell over the phone and easier for customers to pronounce.
What's a man who has worked so hard all his life going to do when he officially retires on Jan. 31?
"I'm going to keep busy. I need to keep busy."
He'll brush up on his French and take some Italian cooking classes.
"I don't know how to cook."
And finally, that trick he has up his cuff-linked sleeve.
How does he get to go and not leave?
While Vittorio is retiring, he'll still be consulting with three men who will assume ownership of the store; longtime partner Frank Trunzo and relative newcomers Michael Manicotto and Manfred Lang.
Here's the real trick, though.
Vittorio Rossi is going but he's leaving his name behind on the store front and the business.
"It will keep going," says Trunzo.
And so will the kid who started as a truck driver with nothing but drive.
And someone who believed he would deliver.
If only more young people had someone like Ralph Drewitt in their lives today.

The man was taken from the scene in an ambulance to Daisy Hill Hospital at around 5pm on Monday but did not survive.
It is understood that the victim was a pensioner from the village.
SDLP MLA for Newry and Armagh Dominic Bradley has expressed his condolences to the man's family.
"As a native of Bessbrook, I know the family of the man who drowned this evening and my thoughts and prayers are with them at this very difficult and sad time," he said.
"It would appear that the man attempted to swim across Bessbrook Pond with the intention of removing two Tricolour flags that had been placed on an island there and replace them with a Union flag."
UUP Newry and Armagh MLA Danny Kennedy spent the evening with the family at the hospital and said they are "totally devastated" by the loss.
"He was highly respected and liked within the Bessbrook community. I counted him as a personal friend and I am deeply upset by his untimely and tragic death," he said."On behalf of the family I would like to like to thank the emergency services, the ambulance service and police and all those at the scene who rendered assistance.
"Attempts were made to save his life at Bessbrook Pond, but unfortunately it was all in vain."He added: "This is a very tragic outcome to controversies surrounding flags in this village. This is too high a price for any family and community to pay."
Sinn Féin MLA for the area Mickey Brady also offered his sympathy to the family of the deceased.
He said: "The terrible news at the loss of a life at Bessbrook Pond is tragic. A family is grieving tonight and a community is in shock."
DUP Newry and Armagh MLA William Irwin said he was "saddened" to hear the news.
"The flags were placed there with the obvious purpose to raise tensions and it is so tragic and unfortunate that this has sadly led to a man's death," he said.
"My thoughts are with the family of the deceased as they attempt to come to terms with this awful incident."
Last week Sinn Féin Mayor of Newry and Mourne Council urged those responsible for putting up two Irish Tricolours at the lake to take them down.
The flags that were on the island had been removed on Monday night.
Condolences to the grieving family in Bessbrook tonight. These tricolours should have been removed by the lawful authorities days ago.— Jim Allister (@JimAllister) July 28, 2014

Stupid comment. Men are only after the most attractive females possible.

When I was 22 I dated a 29y.o. korean girl who fit the stereotype. Didn't matter what I did, she would come over when I called and tell me she loved me…and I did some extremely suspect things @_@ eg.(forced finger in the 'stink' while she struggled to get away with a mortified look on her face, fully clothed and watching TV mind you…other stuff that could easily be considered date-rape if she wanted to press charges) Ok, I wouldn't be such an asshole these days, but the fact is she just …

Wouldn't they be more japanophiles? Though serisouly, if I remember correctly (from some blogs and documentaries) it's more to do with how Japanese women are seen as "Yamato Nadeshikos" even in the eyes of white dudes. Where the man is the one in control of everything. Which is ironic because they are anything but now…Japanese women are just as crass and bitchy as any other if not more with how often they sell themselves before they even hit 15. All men want a somewhat obedient housewife …

The sad part is owning a car in Japan is almost as expensive purchasing a house in another country. Recent check; the cost of a new Honda Fit/Jazz (small economy hatchback) in Japan when converted to US dollars is almost enough to get you into a new Mercedes C250 (luxury sedan). With Japan's economy literally stumbling… …it's all too apparent how high standards Japanese women has set for society these days. No brainer about Japan's birth rates.
- Guys Who Take Dates on a Train "Should Be Single for Life":
woah woah there buddy. Men and women both have it hard. Each has to deal with adversities pertaining to their gender. So chill on the 'men are victims' card and realize that everyone is a victim of something. FUCK the idea that men of women have it hard, LIFE is hard in general and the stupid people like this chick or your victim complex makes it even harder.

JOHANNESBURG: Major champions Jose Maria Olazabal, Darren Clarke and Michael Campbell are the leading drawcards at the maiden Tshwane Open golf championship near Pretoria, which starts today.
The European Tour-Sunshine Tour co-sanctioned event will be played over the par-72, 7,791-yard (7,124m) Copperleaf Golf and Country Estate designed by leading South African golfer Ernie Els.
It is the last of six 2013 European Tour season tournaments to be staged in South Africa and the race for the 237,750 (US$310,690) first prize appears open as many big names are absent.
With the Accenture World Match Play Championship just completed and the Cadillac Championship coming next week, South African and European stars like Els have opted to remain in the United States.
That offers seasoned professionals like 1994 and 1999 US Masters winner Olazabal, 2011 British Open champion Clarke and 2005 US Open title-holder Campbell a chance of victory, along with rising local and overseas stars.
Although the 1,750m altitude will see shots fly further and take some sting from one of the longest layouts on the European circuit, Olazabal was struck by the distance of some holes.
"It is a great course and very, very long," said the 23-time champion on the European circuit, "even though we are not playing off the back tees all the time.
"The front nine is particularly long and I'm struggling with my driving. It is a course you need to drive well and, hopefully, I can find something over the four rounds."
Spaniard Olazabal, 47, skipper of the 2012 European Ryder Cup-winning team in the United States, last triumphed when he finished five strokes clear of the 2005 Mallorca Open field.
That year was also memorable for New Zealander Campbell as he lifted the US Open and defeated Paul McGinley of Ireland 2-1 to capture the HSBC World Match Play Championship.
Northern Irishman Clarke enjoyed his moment of Major glory more recently, winning the 2011 British Open, and is a regular visitor to South Africa for co-sanctioned and Sunshine Tour events.
South African Jaco van Zyl starts 14-1 favourite and another strong local contender should be recent Africa Open winner Darren Fichardt, while six-time European Tour winner Simon Dyson of England is also in the 156-strong field.
"I have been improving each week," said Pretoria-born Van Zyl as he seeks a maiden European Tour victory, "and winning on the Sunshine Tour last week has greatly boosted my confidence." — AFP

Patna: Three people were arrested Monday for their alleged involvement in the massacre of 16 people, including five children, in Bihar`s Khagaria district last year, police said.
A Special Task Force team along with the district police arrested Alu Alam, Mohd Zahoor and Devi Lal Sada in Khagaria for allegedly killing 16 people at Amausi village, about 200 km from here, on Oct 2.
Nineteen people had earlier been arrested in the case.
"More arrests will be made soon," a police official in the district said.
About 50 people are said to have taken part in the slaughter, including nearly two dozen people from Amausi village.
According to the police, while 37 were named in the first information report (FIR), 25 people were listed as unidentified.
Police got vital information from Paro Singh, the lone survivor and witness, who managed to save his life by pretending to be dead after sustaining gunshot injuries.
The brutal killings, in which the hands of the victims were tied before they were gunned down, appeared to be taken place over a land dispute, police said.
All victims belonged to the Kurmi caste and were from Amba Ichwara village, a few kilometres from the spot where the incident took place. The attackers are believed to be from the Sada (Mushahar), a Mahadalit caste in Bihar, considered the poorest of the poor and often landless.
Though the massacre was initially blamed on the outlawed Communist Party of India-Maoist, the group denied involvement and claimed it "had nothing to do with the incident".

It was a terrible month. There is no way around it. The D'backs were 11-17 in the month of May and were outscored by 19 runs. That is the worst month the team has had since July 2010.
Given the expectations coming into the season, even a losing record in a month would have been disappointing but six games under in a month? That's horrific.
And it's not as if it was a fluke, either. The D'backs played bad with many of the guys they relied on last year struggling all month.
The excuses used earlier in the season: it's early, Chris Young and Daniel Hudson are injured, Justin Upton is still getting going, etc . . . are no longer valid explanations of why the D'backs are struggling.
