FOX Sports Exclusive
Report: Smith likely to request release
Alex Smith has said and done all the right things since unceremoniously being replaced by Colin Kaepernick in the San Francisco 49ers' starting lineup. He has been the model teammate and a supportive backup. Now, it may be in his best interest to do something he probably imagined as unthinkable back in October.
A ProFootball talk report Monday indicated Smith is expected to seek his release before the start of free agency. Due to earn $8.5 million in 2013, with $1 million guaranteed now and the balance guaranteed as of April 1, the decision would allow Smith to be a factor in the beginning of the free-agent signing period.
A starting quarterback of a first-place team in Week 10. Asking for his walking papers three months later?
The unthinkable actually makes quite a lot of sense.
This year's free-agent quarterback class isn't exactly loaded with potential Pro Football Hall of Famers. Unlike last year, Peyton Manning isn't being courted. Joe Flacco isn't leaving Baltimore (especially not after this year) and there are questions about Michael Vick's long-term future as a franchise quarterback.
Smith still has a future as a franchise guy. Many within the league believe Smith, put in the right situation, can still be a very successful starting quarterback. He took the 49ers to the NFC Championship Game a season ago and he was having a very strong 2012 season. If his confidence isn't completely shaken, he can be a very interesting — and motivated — veteran quarterback to build a team around.
Also helping Smith's case is the fact that it's not expected to be a particularly deep quarterback draft class. Unlike the 2012 rookie quarterbacks, there doesn't appear to be a Robert Griffin III, Andrew Luck or Russell Wilson in this year's crop of draft-eligibile gunslingers. There's probably not a Ryan Tannehill, either. Geno Smith and Matt Barkley — the expected top quarterbacks in this draft class — are not viewed as the same kind of "can't miss" prospects as Griffin III or Luck. Would you rather roll the dice on a college quarterback? Or go with a guy who's been there before and is looking to prove his doubters wrong?
This only boosts Smith's stock.
There are a number of teams — namely the New York Jets, the Kansas City Chiefs, the Jacksonville Jaguars, the Arizona Cardinals, the Cleveland Browns and the Buffalo Bills — that could be looking to add a quarterback in free agency.
All eyes and attention will be on Colin Kaepernick this week. This report puts Alex Smith somewhat back in the spotlight.

Latest from The Spokesman-Review
Jury: Husband, stepson killed Reynolds
CHEHALIS, Wash. — The 1998 shooting death of a Washington state trooper was a homicide and the woman's husband and stepson were responsible, an inquest jury concluded today.
The verdict drew gasps in a small Chehalis courtroom. It also ended a long campaign by Ronda Reynold's mother, Barb Thompson, of Spokane, to prove her daughter's death was not a suicide, as it was initially ruled.
Jurors did not specify why they suspected Ronda Reynolds' husband, Ronald Reynolds, and her stepson, Jonathan Reynolds. The jury's rulings were unanimous.

Dead man's family wants jury inquest
Granville Dodd was home in bed when he got the call.
His younger brother, Quentin Dodd, (right) one of 11 siblings, had been shot in Spokane Valley by a Spokane County sheriff's deputy. It was bad, his family said, but no one knew exactly what happened.
Dodd soon learned his 50-year-old brother was dead. Nearly one year later, he says he's still searching for answers to questions he has had since day one.
Granville Dodd questions the deputy's account of the shooting, compared to the forensic evidence, and he's troubled that police portrayed his brother as being high on drugs when an autopsy showed only prescription medication was in Quentin Dodd's system.
Spokane County prosecutors recently ruled the Oct. 24, 2010, shooting by Deputy Rustin Olson (left) was justified. Olson and another deputy who confronted Dodd that evening told investigators that Dodd wielded a sharp obsidian rock, refused orders to drop it, threatened to stab one of them, then ran toward Olson, prompting the deputy to shoot.
But the Dodd family, through their attorneys, Breean Beggs and Mark Harris, are calling for a closer examination of the case in the form of a jury inquest.

Dec. 19: Coroners says inquests offer transparency
Inquest set for ex-trooper's '98 death
CHEHALIS, Wash. (AP) — The Lewis County coroner has scheduled an inquest in October in Chehalis to answer questions about the 1998 shooting death of former Washington State Trooper Ronda Reynolds, a Cheney High School graduate, at her home in Toledo.
Coroner Warren McLeod says the inquest jury will be asked to determine the manner of death. Reynolds' death was initially ruled a suicide by the coroner at the time, Terry Wilson.
Reynolds' mother, Barb Thompson of Spokane, believes the death was a homicide. She sued, and in 2009 a jury found Wilson erred.
The coroner appealed, and the case is before a state appeals court, which decided to wait for the inquest.
When McLeod took office this year he reclassified the cause of death from suicide to undetermined.
Thompson says she won't be satisfied until it's homicide.
Best-selling author Ann Rule's newest book, "In the Still of the Night: The Strange Death of Ronda Reynolds and Her Mother's Unceasing Quest for the Truth" looks at Reynolds' death and what Rule calls a botched investigation by authorities too quick to believe an estranged husband's claim of suicide.
Past coverage:
Seattle inquest jury split on cop shooting
SEATTLE (AP) — A coroner's inquest jury examining a Seattle police officer's fatal shooting of a woodcarver last summer returned its findings Thursday, with just one of its eight members saying the carver posed any threat.
Four jurors said carver John T. Williams, 50, did not pose a threat and three others said they didn't know.
The conclusions reached Thursday after two days of deliberations are only findings of fact. In considering 13 questions, the jury was not asked to decide whether Officer Ian Birk (pictured with his wife and lawyer) committed any wrongdoing
Evidence from the inquest and the jury's answers will be forwarded to King County Prosecutor Dan Satterberg to determine whether Birk should be charged in the shooting. Satterberg said he expects to make a decision by mid-February.
Spokane County is one of few jurisdictions that does not conduct jurors inquests into police shootings.
Birk, 27, confronted Williams on Aug. 30 as he crossed a street holding a piece of wood and the knife with a 3-inch blade. Evidence at the inquest showed it took about four seconds from the time Birk first told him to drop the knife to the first gunshot.
The jurors split on whether Williams had time to drop his knife before Birk opened fire, with four saying he did not, one saying he did and the rest answering "unknown."
Four jurors found that Birk believed Williams posed an "imminent threat of serious physical harm" to him when Williams was shot. Four jurors answered "unknown."
The jury watched surveillance video taken from Birk's patrol car, which showed him getting out of the car to pursue Williams, who had crossed the street in front of the cruiser. Off camera, Birk quickly shouted three times for Williams to drop the knife, then fired five shots.
Birk testified that Williams had a "very stern, very serious, very confrontational look on his face." Williams still had the knife out and was in a "confrontational posture" when he opened fire, the officer said.
An autopsy found that Williams' blood-alcohol level was at 0.18 percent, above the 0.08 percent level at which a driver is considered legally drunk.
The police department's Firearms Review Board is expected to convene and rule on whether the shooting was justified. Birk has been on paid leave since the shooting.
The inquest came amid growing criticism that Seattle police officers have used excessive force in several recent incidents, particularly in dealings with minorities. Some community groups have called on the U.S. Justice Department to investigate the department.
Police shootings raise notion of inquests
In Montana, coroner's inquests are conducted for every fatal police shooting in that state and whenever someone dies in law enforcement custody. The same requirement exists in Nevada, with Las Vegas authorities taking the extra step of televising their inquests. And elsewhere, communities are embracing inquests to help ensure public accountability as the number of officer-involved shootings escalates.
Now, following a rash of fatal police shootings statewide, including four in the past four months in Spokane County, some legislators want to make inquests mandatory in Washington, too. King County typically holds inquests into officer-involved shootings and allows a lawyer for the family of the deceased to participate. Legislation to require inquests for all fatal law enforcement shootings and in-custody deaths in the state is expected to be introduced during the 2011 session.
"This is a quicker, more transparent way to understand what taxpayer-paid servants – public servants – are doing," said state Sen. Adam Kline, D-Seattle, chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee and an intended bill sponsor. "These inquests answer what long, drawn-out litigation otherwise would have answered … and when they do it, they speak with authority."
Read the rest of my story here.
Medical examiners in Spokane County have avoided inquests and county commissioners have largely steered clear of the issue even though Prosecutor Steve Tucker publicly called for greater use of inquests in 2006 after the fatal Spokane police confrontation with Otto Zehm, the unarmed, mentally ill janitor mistakenly identified as a theft suspect. The last inquest conducted here was 29 years ago.

An aspiring comedian pretended to be a former supporter for President Barack Obama and appeared on the "Fox & Friends" morning show during a segment that suggested the unemployment rate for people 18-24 could cost Obama the youth vote.
But it was all a
"Fox & Friends" co-host Gretchen Carlson
Max Rice
as a "recent college grad who voted for President Obama" and who "just moved out of his parents' home."
Rice interrupted Carlson's introduction, saying "S'up," and then told her, "Miss U.S.A., it's an honor." Carlson is a former Miss America winner. Things got worse from there.
Rice said:
"I was a huge Obama supporter in 2008. I met him in third grade. I met him when I was little."
When asked why he is now supporting Mitt Romney, Rice claimed he lost a bet to a friend in a pickup basketball game.
When Carlson asked Rice if he was being serious, he told her:
"Yeah. I can't see your face right now. This is so weird."
Fox News is investigating
A statement from the network said:
"We are still examining the situation, but it will be addressed with the appropriate parties involved."
After the interview, Rice said:
"They were just casting a part in a show. The first thing that shocked me is that they were that desperate to find someone that fit that category. What they were seeking is someone who voted for Obama in 2008, then somewhere in the last four years got disenfranchised and now is a huge Romney supporter. But I feel like anyone who fits that mold would also dis Romney at the same time. So, they just couldn't find anyone. They're in New York City, so they had to go find a kid in Chicago."

(Updates with economist comments in fourth paragraph, finance minister's response in sixth paragraph.)
Dec. 22 (Bloomberg) -- New Zealand's economy grew faster than economists forecast in the third quarter, as Rugby World Cup spending gave a temporary lift to an economy struggling to recover from earthquakes.
Gross domestic product rose 0.8 percent in the three months ended Sept. 30 from the previous quarter, when it increased 0.1 percent, Statistics New Zealand said in a report released today in Wellington. Growth was faster than the 0.6 percent median projection in a Bloomberg News survey of 14 economists.
Investors are betting Reserve Bank Governor Alan Bollard will see the spending by rugby fans as a one-time boost and hold the official cash rate at a record-low 2.5 percent until late next year. The central bank forecasts a stronger recovery in 2012, assuming rebuilding of earthquake-devastated Christchurch accelerates in the second half of the year.
"We can expect a softer run of GDP numbers over the next few quarters as the Rugby World Cup impact washes out of the data," said Mark Smith, an economist at ANZ National Bank Ltd. in Wellington. "We continue to look for a December 2012 start to the tightening cycle, barring a global meltdown."
New Zealand's dollar was little changed after the data. It bought 77.05 U.S. cents as of 11:45 a.m. in Wellington from 77.08 cents immediately before the report.
'Global Uncertainty'
New Zealand's growth "was achieved against a backdrop of global uncertainty," Finance Minister Bill English said in an e-mailed statement. "We face challenges from increasingly volatile global financial markets, reduced demand for our products in some markets and a high kiwi dollar."
The currency, known as the kiwi, has risen 3.1 percent the past month against the U.S. dollar, the biggest gainer among the Group of 10 currencies.
The economy grew 1.9 percent from the year-earlier quarter, less than the 2.2 percent pace estimated by economists. Growth in the fourth-quarter of 2010 and the first quarter this year was revised lower after updated data on metal product manufacturing, the statistics agency said.
Bollard on Dec. 8 forecast a third-quarter expansion of 0.6 percent, down from 0.8 percent in his September projections. He signaled he would leave the benchmark rate unchanged until the middle of next year, saying domestic activity was "modest" and there is a risk global economic conditions deteriorate.
Rate Outlook
Eleven of 16 economists surveyed by Bloomberg News expect Bollard will keep borrowing costs unchanged until at least September. None expect an increase before June. There was a 24 percent chance of a rate cut next month, according to a Credit Suisse Group AG index based on swaps trading late yesterday.
The Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development last month cut forecasts for global economic growth in 2012 amid concern that the European debt crisis may damp global demand. Australia last week lowered its forecast for agricultural-export earnings, also citing Europe.
In the third quarter, the production-based measure of GDP was led higher by output from the retail and hospitality industries amid spending by 80,000 foreign visitors and local fans on dining, accommodation and souvenirs around the Rugby World Cup, which began Sept. 9. Retail trade rose 1.8 percent while accommodation and restaurant output increased 4.8 percent, the most since records began in 1987.
Factory Work
Manufacturing advanced 2.3 percent as meat and dairy production rose the most in nine years. Much of the increased output went into inventories, the statistics agency said.
Limiting growth, construction fell 2.2 percent, led by non- residential building and trade services. Farm production and forestry also declined.
Spending on food and other non-durable goods led a 1.5 percent gain in household consumption, the most since the first quarter of 2007, the statistics agency said.
Exports of goods, which make up 30 percent of the economy, declined 1.8 percent, led by dairy and meat, today's report showed. Exports of services, which includes tourist spending in New Zealand, surged 7.2 percent. Imports rose 3.1 percent including fees paid to host the Rugby cup.
Investment fell 1.9 percent, as spending on residential buildings fell to an 18-year low. Business investment in fixed assets fell while spending on plant and machinery increased.

I had a wonderful weekend with your hotel.
It ended with a tired traveler having to wait 25 minutes to pick up his suitcase and clothing from the area. For a 4 Star Hotel this is a minor issue with proper planning can remenedy. We were a group of 630 members from 1199 SEIU. We have used your facility for yours. A reply would be appreciated.

Rated 4 out of 5 by DrMatt Exemplary Front Desk Staff for Gold & Platinum Members
The hotel is centrally located between Central Park and the heart of Times Square. The Theater District is easily within walking distance. The multi-million dollar renovation of the property is classy and sophisticated.
Do not expect an excellent experience dining in the property. The Hudson Market overcharges for a cold breakfast. They charged me $132.72 for four breakfasts that consisted of orange juice, cold cereal, and fruit. Perhaps, it was a mistake. Until I hear otherwise from the property, I can only assume this was correct. Also, one of the staff members of the Link@Sheraton Cafe was incredibly rude and aggressive when my family and I attempted to use one of the Cafe's unused tables to enjoy a baked good that we had purchased from a nearby bakery. There were plenty of other empty tables for patrons to use, if they wished. I was certainly taken by surprise that any staff member would speak to a Gold member, or any guest, in such a tone.

Rated 1 out of 5 by SEAcitizen Extremely bad service
Had an unpleasant stay at the hotel. The staff in this hotel in general are rude and do not care about providing service.
Many things went wrong during our stay: (1) An assistant director never returned emails after promising to looking into a matter. (2) The room service just simply said 'Sir, you can expect us at least 45 minutes to send you fork and knife since that's how long it takes to deliver food here'. I guess the staff cannot think out of the box and figure out a way to deliver fork and knife in a faster way! (3) Mini bar charges mysteriously showed up on my bill. (4) Mysterious charges appeared in my credit card statement a week after I checked out beyond the charges which I already paid when I checked out.
It seems like the hotel is all about making money, but do not care about actually providing proper service. Definitely will not come back to this hotel. But first, I still need to waste time to get the mysterious charges reversed.

Rated 5 out of 5 by NYBeela Simply Amazing!
My girlfriends and I had been planning a NY trip for the past few months, and our stay at the Sheraton New York was the icing on the proverbial cake.
The check in was quick, everything explained in detail, an adjustment made on the reservation with no issue, and a special delight when we returned from our first day of shopping: cheesecake, chocolate covered strawberries, and a nice bottle :-)
Lando in the restaurant became our friend and was incredibly attentive every morning for brunch. Every single member of the concierge team went over and above! Not only did they recommend fabulous restaurants, they gave us directions, helped us book tickets, and made sure all our needs were met.
The room was beautiful with a king size bed, and a separate area to relax. The views from the 3 windows were amazing! The location is great as it was a short walk to Times Square and Macy's, and the subway was right out the door.
I will definitely stay here again!

I stayed at this hotel for three nights. I was put in a room where there was known renovations neaby and I was never told of the renovations. The person who tended to my room during my stay chose not to replace any of the amenities, but for the towels; i.e., body lotion, coffee creamer, etc. I will not be staying at this location again.

We stayed at the hotel in april. I can't say enough positive about this hotel and the staff! It was our first time to New York but unfortunaly our stay didn't turn out as expected as I had to go to the hospital for three days. The big guy in the Fitness (with a brooken arm) and the guy who helped me with massage I can't thank them enough for their help. And the manager (Kenny) who helped my wife and me when we had to stay in New York for two more days than we had planed was super! The location of the hotel is perfect, right in the heart of Manhattan. We stayed in the club floor which was fabulous! The club lounge was incredible. The room was clean and we had a great view down 7th Avenue. The beds are very comfy.
Our hope is to return to New York next year and no doubt we will stay at The Sheraton Hotel & Towers and hopefully we will see more of New York next time....I can't recommend the Presperterian Hospital (the emergency) it was three days in he..

Everything seems to me the worst among the worst except for the gym and the location of this hotel. This was my 4th or 5th stay and would have been my last time. Simply failed in every category; especially coming from a Lifetime Platinum member's perspective. Even the lounge was the worst among all hotels I have stayed.

This is a large hotel in the middle of NYC. I have stayed here multiple times and always enjoy it here. The location is great for both business and pleasure visits, and the hotel has been great at recognizing my SPG status.
The SPG lounge is comfortable and has a great view. I enjoy relaxing there whenever I have time.

We were checked into the hotel very quickly, and soon began exploring the city. The proximity to Times Square, Broadway and Central Park were all excellent. It was also quite exciting having ex President Clinton, Hilary Clinton and Mitt Romney in the hotel during our stay. We would definately stay at this hotel again!

I was recently in NYC for an overnight and found the Sheraton Times Square to be one of the most beautiful places that I've stayed at.
It was meticulously clean and the food at the hotel restaurant was wonderful.
The staff was responsive to any questions I had and I look forward to booking another room very soon.

Rated 4 out of 5 by DDTay Typical New York customer service
Great hotel. great location. Poor customer service but I've come to expect it from Starwood hotels in NYC. Want water? None in room but you can get some from the Club Level. Just don't go when the bar is open because "contractually" (as the manager put it) they are unable to hand you a bottle of water when the bar open in the lounge. They must pour it and hand it to you. So, if anyone else in your room wants a drink of water they must also go to the lounge. Why a hotel would enter into a "contract" that frustrates the very definition of "hospitality" is beyond me. If you wish to speak with anyone, don't bother to call the front desk and ask for a manager. They never answer. It took a trip and wait in line to get to speak with someone who then promptly had water delivered to our room. Sad but true. All this for basic amenities that you would expect at a much cheaper hotel. Beautiful hotel, great location, stupid policies on basic amenities that Platinums should have anyway.

I won the weekend at the Sheraton and I was more than satisfied . There was a nice welcome tray in the room with wine. The meals I ate at the hotel were very good. Everyone was always friendly and provided answers to any questions. Chef Craig was extremely helpful. The room was very clean and help was friendly.

The hotel had no free wifi and did not offer it in your room. I had to pay for internet use in lower level business center just to print out my train ticket. The club lounge food was not good and very limited selection. The rooms are extremely small. To get a larger room had to be placed in a handicap room.

Rated 4 out of 5 by LoveNYC Great location - repeat guest
My mother and I go to NYC every Black Friday and stay at this hotel. It is beautiful, clean and a great location. The staff is wonderful. We did run into some problems for the first time. First, oneof the 2 beds did not have a comforter on it but was not to much of a problem since we walk all day. Second, we had no clean washcloths on the second day. Third was the concierge, we arrived at the hotel and purchased tickets to a museum at south port in lower manhattan, traveled there by taxi ($17.50) only to find the museum closed from hurricane Sandy. We check online prior to the purchase, there was no indication it was closed. We took for granted the concierge would know if it was open or closed. After a half day in SoHo we were refund the ticket price only. All in all lesson learned to make sure the venues are open and not depend on anyone else for this important information. I would and have recommended this hotel for your NYC trip and would stay again when we travel in the spring.

Rated 5 out of 5 by olddancer Lovin this hotel!!!
Our 9 day stay at this hotel was the best I've ever experienced. I usually don't sleep well in a hotel but I slept like a log from the first night in this one. The room and bath were spotless.(I have a thing about that) Maggie is the best housekeeper ever. Bellman, Vladimir(sp?) was our first contact and he is so wonderful I will never forget him. Raphael(sp?) in security was so nice and accommodating when I called from the airport having left an item in my room and saw to it that it was mailed back to me. All the staff were friendly and kind. To me it's the people who make any business tick and the folks who work here are unlike any I have ever encountered at any other hotel. Truthfully, I would never stay in any other hotel in NYC thanks to the staff and clean rooms. (My son and his family also stayed at the same time so I was in their room as well) I thank you all for making this the best stay ever and I can't wait to come back. I would never choose any other hotel. It will always be yours.

So once again I am starting out in farming and I will be asking for your advice. I will begin now. Where do I find used electric fencers? (Of course you know he kept everything.) Auctions are out.

Congrats ... fence chargers (is that what you are looking for?) can be bought at a local farm store, Tractor Supply, or google them and order them online. |
Craigslist is the used stuff shopping place now. Seems like you can find anything there! I now have two cattle, a trailer, patio stones, other things we found on there when we needed an item. Sometimes you can find auctions on Weekends, pick up things you want or need. You NEED to know prices, so you don't overpay. Check items out totally, before bidding because once you buy, it is yours working or not. Congrats on the new place. |

Peerless Systems Announces Results for the Second Quarter of Fiscal 2010
EL SEGUNDO, Calif., Sept. 10 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ — Peerless Systems Corporation (Nasdaq: PRLS), a provider of imaging and networking technologies to the digital document market, today reported financial results for the second quarter of fiscal 2010, which ended on July 31, 2009.
Second quarter revenues were $2.1 million, versus $3.3 million in the second quarter a year ago. Product licensing revenue was $1.9 million, compared with $3.1 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2009. Engineering services and maintenance revenue was $0.2 million in each of the second quarters of fiscal 2010 and 2009. The decline in total revenue was mainly attributable to executing only one new block license this quarter as compared to 3 new block licenses entered into during the second quarter of fiscal 2009. The license entered into during the second quarter of fiscal 2010 is valued at $950,000, $700,000 of which was recognized as revenue during the quarter.
Second quarter gross margin was 65.2% compared with 50.4% in the second quarter of fiscal 2009. The increase is primarily attributable to the higher mix of products being sold for which we do not pay license fees to third parties.
Included in operating income was the receipt from Kyocera Mita Corporation (KMC) of $3.8 million escrowed in connection with the sale of assets to KMC in April 2008.
Peerless reported net income of $2.0 million, or $0.12 per basic share, in the second quarter of fiscal 2010, versus a net loss of $(0.5) million, or $(0.03) per basic share, in the second quarter of fiscal 2009.
Peerless ended the second quarter with cash and cash equivalents of $42.1 million, compared with $42.3 million at the end of the first quarter. Cash and cash equivalents remained level, though the Company purchased $2.3 million in marketable securities and also repurchased 434,173 shares of its common stock for $0.9 million under its stock repurchase plan. Offsetting these purchases and a $1.2 million increase in accounts receivable was the $3.8 million received from KMC, as described above.
Management Commentary
"Excluding the gain associated with the release of escrowed funds from KMC, we generated an operating profit of $0.3 million, which reflects the continuing efforts of our Board and management to curtail costs while supporting our existing customer base and meeting the requirements of a publicly traded company," said William Neil, Chief Financial Officer and Acting Chief Executive Officer.
Neil added, "At the annual meeting of stockholders held in June, two new directors were elected to our Board. Jefferson Gramm and Gregory Bylinsky bring to the Company operational and equity investment expertise."
About Peerless Systems Corporation
Founded in 1982, Peerless historically licensed imaging and networking technologies to the digital document markets, which include manufacturers of color, monochrome and multifunction office products and digital appliances. Effective April 30, 2008, Peerless sold its imaging and networking technologies and certain other assets to KMC.

Knitted Food is Extremely High in Fiber
While I prefer to eat actual food, I have to say these hand-knit lambswool foodstuffs look pretty awesome too. They're made by artist Jessica Dance, and definitely are definitely making me hungry just looking at them.
If you're wondering what makes them look so appetizing, it's that Jessica worked with food photographer David Sykes to help style and compose the plush foods into just the right mouth-watering poses.
I don't know about you guys, but I'm ready to go out and eat a spool of yarn. Oh and if you're wondering where Jessica gets her meat from…

Suspect Surrenders After Bridge Standoff
A New Jersey man wanted on charges of killing his wife and assaulting two Washington area police officers was arrested yesterday after holding police -- and motorists -- at bay for about 90 minutes on the Woodrow Wilson Bridge, where he threatened to jump as he dangled a leg over a railing.
"He was very agitated at first," said Cpl. Diane Richardson, a Prince George's County police spokeswoman. "He kept saying the officers were going to have to shoot him because he wasn't going to go back to jail."
Police negotiators knew that Jeffrey R. Thomas, 42, was wanted on the murder charge, but they did not know whether he was armed, Richardson said. They devised a plan to rush him if he became distracted, and when that happened, officers grabbed him, she said.
Thomas's capture, about 2:10 p.m., ended a manhunt that began April 7, when Hackensack, N.J., police found the body of Pearline Thomas, 41, a nurse, in the couple's dining room. She had been stabbed in the face, neck and chest, and an arrest warrant was issued for her unemployed husband.
Two Hackensack detectives were sent to the Washington area Sunday after a man believed to be Thomas veered toward Fairfax and Prince George's county officers in a 2000 black Mazda Protege, said Hackensack Police Chief Charles "Ken" Zisa. The detectives began working with local police and distributing fliers.
On April 11, a Fairfax patrol officer spotted the Mazda in a Motel 6 parking lot with its front license plate missing, said Officer Jody Donaldson, a Fairfax police spokesman. When the Fairfax officer returned to his cruiser to check the license, the driver sped off, striking the cruiser with his Mazda, Donaldson said.
Three days later, about 2:20 a.m., a Prince George's police officer saw a man sleeping inside the Mazda on Oxon Hill Road, Richardson said. When the officer approached the vehicle and asked for identification, the driver turned his car toward the officer, and the officer jumped out of the way as the Mazda sped off.
Thomas has been charged in warrants with assaulting both officers, police said.
Before the 90-minute standoff on the bridge, police received a tip from someone who had seen a nationally televised Fox News report about Thomas, Zisa said.
Richardson said police went to the 7400 block of Oxon Hill Road, where they spotted Thomas in the Mazda. Thomas fled, with police cars and a helicopter in pursuit.
The pursuit ended at the bridge, where Thomas jumped out of his car and ran to the railing. Lt. John Crawford of the Alexandria police, one of numerous law enforcement agencies that responded, watched from Jones Point as Thomas dangled from the bridge.
"He was straddling the outermost wall of the bridge, with one leg hanging over," Crawford said.
As traffic backed up five miles, four police negotiators talked to Thomas, who insisted he wasn't going back to jail, Richardson said. Thomas had been sentenced to eight years in prison in 1996 for aggravated sexual assault and was released on parole in 2000, records show.
Eventually, Thomas calmed down, saying over and over that he was sorry for inconveniencing everybody, Richardson said.
Thomas, who was not armed when he was arrested on the bridge, was being held last night on the fugitive warrant.
"We're very relieved and proud of the officers who worked hard on this," said Zisa, the Hackensack police chief. "This was the result of good police work."

Angelina Jolie Joins 'Unbroken'; Vin Diesel's 'Riddick' Gets a Release Date
When athlete Louis Zamperini overcame all odds to qualify for the 1936 Olympics in Berlin, you might think that emerging with an impressive enough time to earn the attention of Hitler himself (whose personal flag Zamperini later stole) would be the ending of an odd, though inspirational, story. But no. Moreover, you'd think that after enlisting in the war effort and surviving a plane crash at sea, living for nearly two months on rainwater and fresh fish despite shark attacks and Japanese air-raids, would almost have to signal the story's happy conclusion.
But no.
Having washed ashore on the Marshall Islands, Zamperini was captured by the Japanese Navy, held as a prisoner of war, presumed and pronounced dead by the US military, and was later rescued after the war's conclusion in '45. If all that sounds like a movie, it's about to be. Angelina Jolie has just signed on to direct Universal's telling of Zamperini's life story, Unbroken, set to be produced by long-time Stephen King collaborator Mick Garris. [Deadline]
GIANT ROBOTS! With Guillermo Del Toro's upcoming mech-vs-monster flick Pacific Rim preparing its summer debut, giant robots are making a bit of a comeback to the silver screen. So it's no real surprise that Walking Dead, Terminator and Aliens producer Gale Anne Hurd is teaming with Toei Animation and All Nippon Entertainment for a big-budget version of Gaiking. A teaser for the eventual project was developed for the 2010 Tokyo International Anime Fair long before Hurd had ever come onboard. [The Hollywood Reporter]
Staying within the realm of high science fiction, Universal has finally set a date for the re-emergence of Vin Diesel's Riddick character: September 6, 2013. Director David Twohy's return to the more claustrophobic style of Pitch Black – as opposed to the epic sci-fi bent of The Chronicles of Riddick – will find the character trapped on an alien planet with his only hope of escape the ship full of mercenaries who are coming in search of him…the simply-titled Riddick will also debut on IMAX in post-summer blockbuster fashion. [The Hollywood Reporter]
Watch the trailer for del Toro's Pacific Rim, and then let us know if you're as interested in giant robot movies as we are in the comments below!

WASHINGTON - Hillary Rodham Clinton's family was "dead broke" and saddled with legal bills when she and her husband left the White House, the former first lady said in an interview that aired Monday.
Republicans immediately seized on the comment and said it demonstrated that Clinton, the Democratic Party's strongest contender for its 2016 presidential nomination, was out of touch.
"We came out of the White House not only dead broke, but in debt," Clinton told ABC News. "We had no money when we got there, and we struggled to, you know, piece together the resources for mortgages, for houses, for Chelsea's education. You know, it was not easy."
Since leaving the White House, former President Bill Clinton earned a fortune in speaking fees and Hillary Rodham Clinton represented New York in the Senate.
Hillary Rodham Clinton's Senate financial disclosure forms, filed for 2000, show assets between $781,000 and almost $1.8 million. The forms allow senators to report assets in broad ranges.
The same form, however, shows the Clintons owed between $2.3 million and $10.6 million in legal fees to four firms. Again, the forms allow senators to report debts in broad ranges.
The Clintons paid off their legal bills by 2004, according to Senate disclosure forms. And by 2009, when Hillary Rodham Clinton was preparing to join President Barack Obama's administration as secretary of state, the Clintons' wealth was somewhere between $10 million and $50 million.
Republicans quickly pounced.
"How out of touch is Hillary Clinton when 'dead broke' (equals) mansions & massive speaking fees?" tweeted Republican National Committee chairman Reince Priebus.
Democrats leveled a similar charge against the GOP's wealthy 2012 presidential nominee, Mitt Romney.

Hello again,
I guess I can figure this out myself with trial and error, but thought I would ask anyway. When you embroidery something (especially a disney character) on the 270d, it makes a line to the bottom and stitches disney. Can you cut these threads? Or will the thread come loose? I don't want the line between letters on a name either and wonder if you can cut them. I guess I can make something on scap material and wash it and see. If someone already knows though, that would help.
Follow-Up Postings:
- Posted by annjellicle (My Page) on Wed, Feb 14, 07 at 12:18
I cut them (the lines between letters). I also completely cut off (well, more like de-thread) the word DISNEY from the bottom. You are probably not supposed to (legally, or whatever) but really, who's going to sue me over that? *wink* (and who in this day and age doesn't know Mickey Mouse by sight and know he's a Disney character?) It generally won't hurt anything to snip these strings. If you are concerned about it unraveling (I haven't had this issue, but some people are extra-cautious, which is OK, too), then after you cut them you can use Fray-check, superglue or a VERY small dab of hot glue on the back where the strings came out. But, like I said, I don't do this and don't seem to have any problems. |

Benagh's lawsuit claims that Elitch's is liable for her injuries because the park offered a ride "that was dangerous in its design and operation" and it failed to warn patrons that others had been injured on the ride in the past. The suit asserts that Benagh's injuries were caused by the ride's plastic headrest and an ill-fitting shoulder harness and asks for damages due to negligence. Elitch's is being asked to cover Benagh's lost earnings and medical expenses as well as damages for her physical and emotional suffering and loss of memory and cognitive abilities. Under Colorado law, damages for negligence are capped at $366,000.
Elitch spokeswoman Goodell says she can't comment on Benagh's lawsuit because it's still in litigation, but in the court documents, Elitch's argues that because Benagh has never claimed that the ride malfunctioned, or was incorrectly operated or maintained, the park should not be held negligent. The manufacturer of the ride, Vekoma International, would be responsible for any design flaws, argues a brief submitted by Elitch's attorney Jack Robinson. There are thirty Mind Erasers around the world, including seven owned by Premier, according to court documents.
The park also notes that Benagh had the opportunity to observe the ride while waiting in line for 45 minutes. "Plaintiff personally observed the general nature and operation of the Mind Eraser ride, including: the relative speed of the ride; that the ride would turn her upside down on a number of occasions; that she would be spinning around; and that her legs were going to be free."
Elitch's faults Benagh for "her admitted failure to hold on during the course of the ride and her failure to keep her head firmly against the back of the seat."
In asking the court to dismiss the case, Elitch's says that Benagh "was exposed to the same conditions, the same forces, and the same restraint system as tens of thousands of other patrons who experienced no ill effects from the operation of the Mind Eraser." The park also notes that signs at the entrance to the ride warn patrons not to ride if they have back and neck problems, high blood pressure, a heart condition, or are pregnant. Benagh says she did not have any of these conditions.
Benagh insists that she is not simply out to make a buck. She hopes to receive permission from her doctor to return to work soon and notes that Colorado's limits on liability awards will prevent her from reaping a windfall even if she prevails in court. Her most severe symptoms have now passed, but she wants Elitch's to pay for her physical and mental ordeal during the past two years. At one time, Benagh says she was seeing five different doctors, including a neurologist, a physical therapist and an osteopath. "It's not like I'm asking for more than I lost," she says. "It's taken me fifteen months to get physically stabilized. It's taken two years from me and my kids."
She has also been startled to discover that the amusement-park industry receives little government oversight. "What scares me is that this could happen to other people and even to kids," says Benagh. "I know a lot of people are getting hurt on that ride. If I could change anything, I would have the state take a more active role to make sure they're operating at the highest level."
The safety of amusement rides has become an issue in other parts of the country, usually following fatal accidents.
In March, a young woman was killed and ten people were injured at the Six Flags Over Texas amusement park in Dallas when a raft ride overturned. Six Flags employees told bystanders to wait for paramedics before trying to get the victims out of the water, and some patrons criticized the park for botching the rescue effort. The collapse of a slide in 1997 at Waterworld USA in Concord, California, led to the death of a high school girl and injured 32 of her classmates. The accident has resulted in a flurry of lawsuits against the park--which is also owned by Premier.
After a Texas girl was killed and two others seriously injured last year when they were ejected from a carnival ride known as the Himalaya, the CPSC issued a national alert to amusement ride operators and conducted an investigation. The agency found that several other people around the country had been injured on the ride because of a faulty safety bar. (Just last week, a New York girl was killed and eight others injured when a Himalaya ride malfunctioned at Coney Island.) The CPSC said it would work with the manufacturer to alert operators about potential problems; however, the commission has no authority to actually inspect rides or oversee maintenance. Decisions about how to regulate amusement parks and carnivals are left up to the states.
Colorado only mandates state inspections for traveling carnival rides. Amusement parks are simply required to maintain at least $1 million in liability insurance coverage. The insurance companies have to report all claims filed by patrons against amusement parks to the state labor department. Those records show 47 liability claims were filed against Elitch Gardens in 1998, and 54 claims in 1997. The claims covered everything from slips on sidewalks to a cervical spine injury. (A smaller number of claims were filed against Lakeside Amusement Park, probably because that park attracts fewer patrons.)
