Derek Medina, 31, turned himself in to police on Thursday after Jennifer Alfonso was fatally shot inside the couple's home in South Miami, a suburb of
His final Facebook post was as chilling as the photograph that followed it.
"Im going to prison or death sentence for killing my wife love you guys, miss you guys takecare Facebook people you will see me in the news," said the Thursday morning post on
He then apparently posted a photo of his 26-year-old wife's body slumped on the floor.
One neighbor said that
"He would walk around here and kinda patrol the area. He was always telling me there was a lot of stuff going on around here," said Dade.
Dade said he thought the incident was bizarre and had only a few other interactions with
"He was just different," he said.
Neighbors said
Lori Wilkinson saw the couple and their daughter several times at the apartment's pool and mailbox and said they seemed like a nice family.
A neighbor who only identified herself as Sylvia said she was shocked.
"I couldn't sleep last night. I kept thinking of her," Sylvia said, although she said she did not know the couple.
According to the affidavit, the 6-foot-2, 200-pound

The post claimed that his wife was punching him and that he wasn't going to stand any more abuse. YouTube videos linked to his Facebook page earlier this week, however, show him working out in a martial arts studio, punching and kicking a heavy bag.
The next and final post — also at 11:11 a.m. and titled "Rip Jennifer Alfonso" — was a gruesome photograph showing a woman in black leotards slumped on the floor. She looked like she had fallen backward from a kneeling position, with her legs bent to her sides and blood on her left arm and left cheek. The photo was up for more than five hours before Facebook removed the page late Thursday afternoon.
A Facebook spokeswoman said in an email to The Associated Press that she could not comment on a law enforcement investigation but could provide a general comment from the company.
"The content was reported to us," the spokeswoman wrote. "We took action on the profile — removing the content and disabling the profile, and we reached out to law enforcement. We take action on all content that violates our terms, which are clearly laid out on our site."

Cool Kids Versus Squares, Continued
Yesterday, I wrote a post looking at an ad aired by GOP uber-super-PAC American Crossroads that went after Barack Obama for being a "celebrity" and doing things like going on Jimmy Fallon's television show. I argued that it looked like once again we are in for a renewal of the old battles that started in the 1960s between the squares and the cool kids (or, depending on the historical moment, the jocks and the hippies). In the course of my post, I talked about Barack Obama's image of "cool," which he certainly works to cultivate. I'm hardly the first person to note this about Obama, and I didn't actually say anything about whether coolness makes one a good president. Nevertheless, Matt Welch at Reason seemed positively outraged, enough to illustrate his post responding to mine with a giant picture of me (great!) and accuse me of arguing something I didn't actually argue (not so great). Here's what he had to say (it begins with a reference to the "pound hug," that combo handshake-hug thing):
While I am always tickled to learn a new phrase, a presidential pound hug can go pound sand: What matters is how you govern. It will surprise approximately no one that Paul Waldman was much more critical of the gap between presidential image and performance back when it wasn't his team in the White House. Now, though, with a heavy sigh, this Joe Cool of opinion journalism is being dragged reluctantly back into the political quad...
Then he goes on to quote me, and quotes Glenn Reynolds, equally outraged by all appearances, saying that there's nothing cool about Obama's ramping up of the war on marijuana, opposition to gay marriage, and so on. But here's what they seem to be missing.
You see, there's a difference between "cool" as an idea and a demeanor, and "cool" as a sixth-grader might use the term, meaning just "awesome!" Matt apparently thought I was using it in the latter sense, which probably accounts for him referring to my post as "Obama-fluffing," but this is something I've written about before. For instance, it's what makes Obama hard to parody, and is the reason there are no good comedic impressions of him the way there were of George W. Bush and Bill Clinton. It's not because Obama is awesome, it's because coolness dictates that you remain calm and a little removed at all times, which means that you don't have the kind of outsized traits and habits that can be exaggerated into comedy. Obama doesn't get goofy like Bush sometimes did, and he won't get on his knees and weep with you like Bill Clinton would. There's no value judgment there; it's just who he is.
And as for Matt's contention that I'm not critical of the gap between presidential image and performance because my team isn't in the White House, I'd say two things. First, never once did I say that Obama's "cool" demeanor makes him a good president, nor would I (for the record, on the whole I think his performance is mixed). When it came to George W. Bush (that link takes you to an interview I did years ago about him), I was most critical of his image-making when it was in the service of deceit, as it was so often. (As a side note, Bush's greatest deceptions came when he was trying to convince the public to go along with something he was about to do, not to convince them that he had been doing a good job already).
And second, what brought this whole thing up was an attempt at public persuasion by Republicans. Obviously, Obama goes on Jimmy Fallon's show because he's trying to convince young people that he's still sympatico with them and they should get out and work for him like they did four years ago. But it was Rove's group that produced the ad stringing together clips of Obama with celebrities and wearing sunglasses. They're the ones with the greatest eagerness to stir up the culture war. If anybody's arguing that Obama is cool, it's them; it's just that they want voters to think that's a reason to vote against him, whereas I'd argue that it isn't a good reason to vote either way.
I'm still sorting out what kind of a president I think Mitt Romney would be—it's an extremely difficult question to answer, because he has some genuine gifts and also has some spectacular weaknesses, even aside from the ideological differences I have with him. But the fact that he's about as square as they come won't have any effect on whether he can pass legislation or how he'd deal with an international crisis. It will, however, affect how Americans think about him. Which may not matter as much, but it still matters.
Fri, 2012-04-27 14:29
Sigh..... you missed Welch and Reynolds' point. The argument isn't "It doesn't matter that he is cool!!" The argument is that a mom jeans, bike helmet wearing geek, that sounds likes a black comedian's impression of a nerdy white guy, that can't throw a baseball sixty feet, six inches without three hopping it is anything but cool.

You assume that everyone sees this the same way. That if a president doesn't seem hip, he can't govern.
Fortunately most Americans are over 14 years of age emotionally, and see someone who isn't desperately trying to be cool as serious and capable. And the reverse.
Fri, 2012-04-27 15:13
thou doth protest too much...compare how many words you lavish on two brief observations to the originals. moreover, neither reflected 'outrage' so much as simple ridicule and derision as in 'how pathetic'. and it is pathetic and far less perceptive then Reynolds (brief) takedown (mom jeans!) your patronizing distinction between the two usages (thanks professor! ) and coy claim that you never ascribe a leadership value just adds to the general hilarity of what today's best and brightest imagine to be scintillating journalism.
Fri, 2012-04-27 15:15
"You missed Waldman's point that that's not the definition of "cool" he's talking about." Right. Sure. Especially with this closing, "I'm still sorting out what kind of a president I think Mitt Romney would be... But the fact that he's about as square as they come..."
So it's the 'not square' cool, y'dig? (I knew that you could.)
Fri, 2012-04-27 15:22
There definitely seems to be a disconnect. You are using "cool" to describe Obama as in he's reserved. The opposite of "warm." You then describe Romney as "square" which is the opposite of cool when it's used to mean "awesome" or "hip." Any confusion as to this by your readers is genuine. (Or you changed your mind when you got called on it, but I'll stick with your story, as it fits his personality). While I don't think Obama as a person is particularly "cool", I will grant you that he frequently comes off as aloof or distant. I couldn't care less about the coolness of any of our candidates. Collectively, and unfortunately, we all too often seem to be swayed by appearances these days.

Wow, the obtuseness in this reply is so awesome its almost cool and the walk back almost, but not quite succeeds. I can't believe you did not get Reynolds point but when you're left trying to parse the meaning of cool, you should know its time to cut your loses. Next time be a journalist instead of a fawning psychophant - people will respect you more in the morning.
Fri, 2012-04-27 15:55
I think you are being a bit dishonest here, which I am beginning to suspect is a required trait to be any kind of journalist these days...your post is about "Cool kids vs. squares" and the examples you provide have nothing to do with demeanor, its about social categories form the not so distant past...jocks vs, cool, your comparison of smacks a bit of animal house reference material and maybe that's a fitting metaphor...its all fun and games until the secret service under the authority of our "cool" President knocks up a few hookers...
As I watch this so called "cool" guy, I am frankly tired of the disconnect, the utter lack of taking responsibility for his own mess, and the disturbing lack of respect he demonstrates to the average working class intelligence...and unfortunately you are helping reinforce this disdain by suggesting he is some kind of class hero...frankly the "cool" kids I grew up with are the LAST people I want in charge, the elitist mentality required to join that club is the exact opposite of a productive individual...I'm sure if you glance back at your history, you will have to agree...the kids sitting around smoking pot are not the ones we need running the country.
Thanks for helping us see how dangerous this "cool" thing really is...I think I'll vote for a square or a jock, anything but cool.

You can sense how proud the author is with his analysis of what the 'bump' signifies...funny. What might have been interesting is if he had observed how politicians cannot be cool- that politics is antithetical to cool and how authentically cool people don't go into politics and when a real cool person associates the self with politics it always makes them less not more cool. Think about it...
Fri, 2012-04-27 16:02
Forget it, folks, Waldman will never understand that to those of us who have not been throwing our panties at Obama for the past four years he looks more like a slightly grown up Urkel than the cool guy they imagine him to be.
Urkel with a bad attitude and a thin skin.

I think you have hit it right on the nose. Being a "liberal" (or what passes for a liberal nowadays) is all about adopting the latest ideas and opinions that are "cool" and that are all shared by the other "cool kids." In other words, to be a Liberal is to be an intellectual Fashionista...
The Right, on the other hand, tend to think for themselves.....and when you do that you often fall back on those old tired and true truths that are...you know.....true?
But who wants that? Who wants someone who can run an economy when you can have a cool black guy "slow spin" (or whatever--I do not care) the News?

And yes, we are mocking both you and O'bama.

Don't hurt Paul Waldman's feelings! Just because he wrote himself into a corner about something stupid and then missed the point of some simple criticism does not mean that you may mock him! He is a human being, perhaps thin-skinned, like Obama, but nonetheless a man who is not a tool and is giving very significant input for our super cool hero (the President). Duly noted, Paul Waldman.
Oh, and in case you think I was serious, I'M BEING SARCASTIC!!! HA!! HA HA! HA!!!! Did you get that, you deep-thinking lackey? HA! HA! HAAAA!! HA HA! Now, if only it were easier to act like a stupid putz on the Internet.... Thanks for the inspiration Paul Waldman.

You commenters are being unfair. And it's presumptuous to judge from just one photo. I for one am willing to take Mr. Waldman at his word that he is as cool as he claims he is.
If the cool '60s taught us anything, it's that it is tremendously cool to carry water for a hugely powerful 50+ year old politician in a suit if he happens to have a (D) after his name. That's what all those cool hippies back then were always protesting about right? More adulation for the powerful 50+ year old (D) in a suit?
The other thing to remember is that 'progressives' are the Smart, reality-based faction. So choosing a President based on 'coolness' (and, writing about that 'coolness') must - despite all appearances - be tremendously Smart and intellectual in some way that the rest of us are just too dumb and backward to perceive.
Sat, 2012-04-28 11:51
The truest and most significant line in this whole backpedaling post, "I'd argue that it isn't a good reason to vote either way" (as in Romney vs. Obama.) Absolutely, and here's just one illustration: http://commonsenseopenmind.wordpress.com/ The only honest candidate out there who would truly stand behind his message of personal liberty and smaller, less intrusive government is Ron Paul. His young followers find this old guy quite cool despite his shortage of pound hugs. But not enough people understand what Paul's about because the media continues to ignore him.
Sun, 2012-04-29 23:34
I'm no more a fan of Bush than I am of Obama. But photos are revealing.
Cool people don't become politicians. Moreover, cool people don't need to convince their starry eyed media groupies to plant stories about how cool they are. It's self-negating - as soon as you say you're cool, you're not. Getting other people to say it for you makes no difference.

text: In Tearoom Trade (1970/1975), Laud Humphreys' writes about the homosexual relations that took place in various "tearooms" (i.e., public bathrooms) in an unidentified American city during the mid- to late 1960s. By pretending to be a simple voyeur, Humphreys explains that he systematically observed these activities and even recorded the license plate numbers of a sample of tearoom participants. While the systematic observation part of his study permitted an understanding of the rules and roles, patterns of collective action, and risks of the game associated with impersonal gay sex in public restrooms, his tracking down and interviewing a handful of the subjects allowed Humphreys to better understand the identity, lives, and rationality of those men involved in the so-called tearoom trade. While the author defended the ethics behind his research early on, he was still stunned by the backlash it received. Yet, even years after Humphreys' death, the ethical issues that his study provoked continue to reverberate in the social research community. In response to such issues, I will use this post to critically evaluate the strong and weak points of his book. (more…)

Popular Pro Modifiers and Accessories
12" x 16" Pro Softbox
24" x 32" Pro Softbox
16" x 22" Pro Softbox
36" x 48" Pro Softbox
Built to Last
With over 20 years of experience developing photography lighting modifiers, Westcott has maintained a commitment to using quality materials and superior construction. These quality components include solid steel assembly rods, dual-layered corners, heat shield fabric, and tent-style vents. This confidence in quality is supported by 5 and 7 year warranties on all Westcott Pro and Pro Signature Softboxes.
Take the Heat
All Westcott Pro softboxes, strips, and octabanks are rated for use at up to 1000-watts. The reflective silver and white fabrics that line these modifiers not only produces an optimum light output, but also serves as a double-layer of heat resistance. Tent-style heat vents are also included in the body of these professional modifiers, providing extra heat ventilation and protection throughout long shoots.
Pure-Color Diffusers
Westcott softbox diffusers and inner-baffles are constructed with an all-natural, unbleached nylon fabric. Unlike processed diffusion fabrics, these professional panels will soften your light source, without changing its color temperature. Diffusion panels are available in full, half, and quarter stops.
The Perfect Pair
For superior lighting, pair any Westcott Pro softbox with the Spiderlite TD6. The Spiderlite TD series of continuous lighting is amongst the most popular daylight or tungsten lighting on the market. Featuring a 1200 effective-watt output, the power of the Spiderlite TD6 is brilliantly softened, directed, and modified by any Westcott Pro Softbox. Pairing these two powerhouse products together is also cost effective. With a built-in adapter, the Spiderlite TD6 does not require additional components or speedrings to partner with any Pro Softbox. Three inclusive kits are also available featuring both the Spiderlite TD6 and a Westcott softbox.
Wide Variety
Westcott Pro Softboxes are available in a large array of styles and sizes. Ranging from 12" x 16" to 54" x 72" options, softboxes are available in both standard or shallow versions. Standard stripbanks, asymmetrical stripbanks, and octabanks are also available, featuring the same quality materials and construction. All Westcott Pro modifiers include a carry case for storage and travel.
One Size Doesn't Fit All
Westcott softboxes are not designed to be industry standards, but to be light specific. Each Pro Softbox is manufactured to maximize specific light quality and projection. Standard Pro Softboxes are developed for strobe photographers with a deep profile allowing for even light output of less than 1/2 stop from center to edge. Shallow Pro Softboxes cater to continuous fluorescent photographers, featuring a narrow profile for maximized output.

Exact Original formula has made Kaytee a leader in the bird food market. Combining the highest quality ingredients with essential nutrients in a special pasteurizing process produces this crunchy, seed-shaped nugget. Designed to support normal bird activity such as molting, growth, and breeding. Parrot/Conure formula contains DHA Omega-3 fatty acids for heart, brain, and visual functions and L-Carnitine for improved metabolism.
Please click on "More Information" for feeding instructions and ingredients.
Converting to Exact Original: If your bird is not familiar with processed food, use one of the three following conversion methods. Watch your bird closely during any conversion method to insure it is receiving the right amount of food.
If any problems result, or if your bird is being extremely difficult to convert, return to the previous step in the conversion process. After approximately seven days, continue with the conversion process.
Portions Method
1 part exact to 3 parts current food
Day 4-8
2 parts exact to 2 parts current food
Day 9-14
3 parts exact to 1 part current food
After 14 days
Feed exact only. Your bird should be completely converted.
Free Choice Method
After 14 days, continue for another two weeks by putting exact in the bottom of the current food (about 10%) on top. Gradually reduce the amount of current food or offer it on alternate days. This method is very easy on the bird since the bird is able to choose what it eats and slowly adapt to the new diet.
Within one month, even the most difficult bird can be converted with this method.Immediate Conversion
This method works best with young birds and those accustomed to a widely varied diet. Sudden food changes may be refused by finicky eaters and may be dangerous to birds which are not healthy.
Observe your bird closely when using this method. Check its body weight or breast muscle size to watch for weight loss. If your bird loses over 10% of its body weight, provide a mixture of current food and exact for about 3 days before returning exclusively to exact.
Daily Feeding Instructions
Exact Original is designed to be the bird's sole diet. Limit additional foods such as fresh fruits, vegetables, or other treats to 20% of the bird's total diet. When used as directed, no additional vitamin or mineral supplements are recommended.
Important Notes
Ingredients:Ground Corn, Ground Wheat, Ground Oat Groats, Wheat Middlings, Corn Gluten Meal, Dried Whole Egg, Dried Beet Pulp, Soy Oil, Ground Flaxseed, Soybean Meal, Calcium Carbonate, Dicalcium Phosphate, Corn Sugar, Wheat Germ Meal, L-Lysine, Dried Cane Molasses, Salt, Whole Cell Algae Meal (source of DHA), Fructooligosaccharide, Brewers Dried Yeast, Vitamin A Supplement, Choline Chloride, DL-Methionine, Mixed Tocopherols (a preservative), Yeast Extract, Yucca schidigera Extract, Vitamin E Supplement, Vitamin B12 Supplement, Riboflavin Supplement, Manganese Proteinate, Copper Proteinate, Ferrous Sulfate, Zinc Oxide, Manganous Oxide, Menadione Sodium Bisulfite Complex (source of Vitamin K activity), Niacin, Rosemary Extract, Citric Acid, Calcium Pantothenate, L-Carnitine, Copper Sulfate, Thiamine Mononitrate, Pyridoxine Hydrochloride, Cholecalciferol (source of Vitamin D3), Beta-Carotene, Canthaxanthin, Folic Acid, Calcium Iodate, Biotin, Cobalt Carbonate, Sodium Selenite, Dried Bacillus subtilis Fermentation Product, Dried Bacillus licheniformis Fermentation Product, Natural Flavors.

Thread: overheating
i have a 2005 down east spa by master spa. it is overheating the water. we set the temp on 80 and the mode on sleep and it got to 107. we had the thermostats checked and both read ok. we removed the cabinet insulation and the filters to see if that was the problem. after cooling down overnight, i turned power back on and set to 95 on economy mode and in two days was 103. we bought the unit new and it performed perfect until this year. any suggestions appricated. thanks in advance
Is the actual water temperature the same as what the readout says it is? Also, how many hours a day is the filter cycle set for and what is the ambient temperature during the day this time of year? How was the spa temperature senor tested?
mary, yes, the temp readout is correct. the temp sensors were checked by a spa repair person in the area with an ameter. the reading was .017 , he had a new one on hand and it read the same, so we deterrmened the temp sensors ok. this morning, i disconnected the terminals from the electrical panel to the heating element(no way it can heat now) i checked the temp just before this post and it was now 104. still have no filters in unit. the pump sounds smooth as it ever did. im gonna drain the water and refill with new water. we havent used the spa in ten months(wife was pregnant)and the water is 12 months old, however we have maintained proper ph and other chemical levels. thanks for your help. look forward to hearing from you soon.
Yes I would recommend replacing the water. Then I would take note of the water temp after fill up and leave the spa heater disconnected over night and see what the temp gets to. The reason I asked how long the filter cycles are set for and what the outside temp is during the day because if the pump is running for a long period of time and it's hot outside the spa could potentially overheat with the heater not even coming on. This is due to the cover and a well insulated spa.
Also, I do not believe this model spa has a 24 hour a day circulation pump but can you please verify that for me. This would be a seperate small pump from your regular therapy jet pump.
i replaced the water tonight. the temp was 68, and verified with another thermometer. the heater is still disconnected. this model can have an optional circ pump, but mine does not. the filter cycle is still the factory setting as far as i know. the spa does a temp polling every 30 min for 2 min and only heats water if needed(supposedly). the filter cycle is also factory set for 2 hours every 12 hours. we are in northern ky, and its been boiling hot as usual, however the spa performed perfect previous summers. we would actually turn it down below body temp in summer for a more relaxing soak, and it would maintain the lower temp. for this reason i dont think my problem is weather related. if weather and outside temp is the problem, it will fix itself in a couple months and save me a bundle. if youd like to check out the owners manuel,search master spas owners manuels, i have a 2005 downeast portsmouth model with 2 pumps. thanks again for you time and reply if you need more info or have another suggestion.
i have replaced the water and checked the tem. it rose from 69 to 78 overnight, however the temp was set to 80, therefor the pump ran all night thinking it needed to heat water. the heater is still disconnected. the polling cylce is set 2 min ever 30 min, and it suppposed to heat water if necessary. the filter cycle is 2 hours ever 12 hours. there is no circ pump.
im having some trouble posting, so bear with me if it takes a while to reply. sometimes it wont post my message for some reason, and other times it will show up a day later.
I would go ahead and reconnect the heater. Leave it set to 80 or a little higher in case the water is already there and when it reaches set temp take note if the heater indicator shuts off. If so and you are comfortable using a volt meter I would then take a voltage reading going to the heater to verify that power has shut off going to the heater.
thanks, mary. i will reconnect in the morning, and test with a meter later and let you know.
mary, sorry for the delay, i have yet to chech the heater with a volt meter as i can not find mine. im gonna have to borrow one. as soon as i do, i will post a reply. thanks again.

Originally written on Football Nation | Last updated 6/19/13
The Broncos and 49ers had great defenses in the 2012 regular season, even if it wasn't readily apparent in the playoffs.Seattle's "Legion of Boom" came into their own as a vile force of nature.Chicago's havoc-wreaking led to a seemingly endless loop of defenders scoring touchdowns.Pittsburgh's aging defense gave up the least amount of yards in the entire league.But which NFL defense, heading into 2013, is the best?Considering what each defense accomplished in 2012, and assessing what their 2013 moves mean to their squads as a whole, this is a subjective look at which defensive unit looks strongest going into a new season.And besides, it makes for some good arguments, doesn't it?
