Man on the run: Robber escapes after 2 armed carjackings
GRANDVIEW, Wash. (AP) — Police are looking for a 21-year-old Grandview man accused of robbing a convenience store Monday night and carjacking two vehicles at gunpoint.
The Yakima County sheriff's office says the fleeing robber drove his car into a ditch then took a pickup truck from someone who had stopped to help.
Deputies say the robber left the truck at a rest stop on Interstate 82 and stole a car, a Volkswagen Jetta, from a woman.
Ellensburg police spotted the stolen Jetta and chased it north on Highway 97 across Blewett Pass toward Wenatchee until they broke off the chase in the interest of public safety.
Police are looking for the stolen Jetta, Washington license AFB9512.
If you have any information, please contact the Yakima Sheriff's office.
Here's the news release from the Yakima County Sheriff's Office:
On 11-19-2012 at about 1820 hours Grandview Police responded to an armed robbery that had just taken place at a convenience store in the 100 block of East Wine Country Rd. A suspect armed with firearm had entered the store and then fled in a 1998 Cadillac DeVille after an undisclosed amount of cash was taken from the store clerk.
At about 1823 hours Yakima County Sheriff's deputies responded to a reported armed robbery north of Grandview in the 2000 block of Wilson Highway. At this location it was determined that citizens had seen what ended up being the suspect vehicle in Grandview's armed robbery, stuck in the ditch after having run off the road. The citizens stopped to make sure any occupants were okay when a male suspect pointed a firearm at them and demanded their vehicle. The good Samaritans sped away before the suspect could take their vehicle.
Meanwhile a citizen that lives nearby walked out to see if everyone was okay when the suspect then pointed the gun at him and demanded the keys to one of his vehicles. The suspect received the keys and sped away in the then stolen 1987 Ford Ranger. The Cadillac used in the convenience store armed robbery was left at this scene.
Responding law enforcement officers searched the area without success.
At about 1950 hours Yakima SO deputies responded to the west bound rest area of Interstate 82 at mile post 22 regarding a carjacking. Upon arrival deputies found the 1987 Ford Ranger stolen from Grandview. A male and female victim at this location advised they were passing through the area and stopped at this rest area for a few minutes. The male driver of the victim vehicle went into the restroom when the 1987 Ford Ranger pulled up. The driver exited the pickup and pointed a firearm at the female passenger of their Silver 2011 Volkswagen Jetta. The suspect ordered the female out of the Jetta at which time the suspect drove off with the Jetta leaving the stolen Ford Ranger at the location. The male victim exited the restroom, saw the Jetta leaving the area and became aware of what was taking place. The male victim fired several shots from his own firearm at his stolen vehicle although it is not known if the vehicle was struck.
The stolen Jetta bearing Washington license plates AFB9512 was then seen heading west on Interstate 82.
Ellensburg law enforcement officers were advised to be on the lookout for the vehicle. A short time later law enforcement officers in the Ellensburg area saw the stolen Jetta and became involved in a high speed pursuit of the vehicle north on Highway 97 across Blewett Pass. The Ellensburg law enforcement officers terminated the pursuit in the interest of public safety. The stolen Jetta was believed to have been last seen continuing north on Highway 97 toward Wenatchee. All area law enforcement agencies have been notified.
The suspect in these multiple robberies has been preliminarily identified as 21 year old Marcel Maldonado from Grandview. Mr Maldonado is to be considered armed and dangerous. A photo of Mr Maldonado is attached below. The Cadillac involved in the original armed robbery is owned by Mr Maldonado. If anyone has information on the whereabouts of Mr Maldonado or the stolen Jetta please call 911. Mr Maldonado is believed to be still in possession of the Silver 2011 Volkswagen Jetta bearing Washington license AFB9512.
Additional inquiries on this case should be directed to Yakima SO Detective Chief Graham or Detective Sergeant Udell at 509-574-2500.

The report strongly criticised the BBC's handling of allegations of child sex abuse against Savile but cleared the corporation of a cover-up. The report sparked the resignation of the BBC's deputy director of news, Stephen Mitchell, and led to the editor and deputy editor of the current affairs programme Newsnight at the centre of the scandal being replaced.

On Wednesday, November 25, 2009, T-Mobile announced that it has expanded 3G network services to two cities in Indiana. Bloomington and Lafeyette are the targeted markets. These two markets are home to Indiana University and Purdue University. Together both areas boast over 100,000 students, making these academic areas a great place to start services. The folks at Notre Dame are hoping to be next!
T-Mobile began its expansion into the 3G market back in the fall of 2006 with its announcement that it was going to spend over two billion dollars to expand 3G wireless services. T-Mobile was one of the last of the major cellular services companies to enter into the 3G network. The company announced at that time that they should be completed with the conversion by the end of 2009.
With the introduction of the Android model and other smart phones, T-Mobile has been trying to quickly add as many 3G network areas as possible. With T-Mobile still lagging behind the other companies, they are well on their way to catching up. Each week we see more and more cities being added to the network. To date, T-Mobile has over 240 cities with 3G coverage.
Most people have the need for the 3G network for web applications and email applications. The increased speed of the 3G network will assist the customer in their day to day applications and usages. T-Mobile has also announced its usage of 7.2 mbps HSPA through its 3G networks which will increase the speed of data transfer. This expansion will continue until the end of the year. This coincides with the introduction of the Android and other smart phones.
We can look to next year for the company to upgrade its 7.2 mbps HSPA to further enhance its 3G network and there is also speculation that this upgrade will be a smoother transition to a 4G network in the near future.
The announcement of the two cities in Indiana comes on the heels with announcements for Alabama, Kansas, Tennessee and Nebraska. Each announcement centering on larger urban areas with more dense populations. We will continue to see additional cities being listed almost every day.

Abajo Mountains - Conservation Officer Randall Scheetz reports that fishing conditions remain the same as previous weeks. Fishing was good at Foy Reservoir with corn or worm-flavored Zeke's, floating off the bottom. Fishing conditions at Monticello Reservoir have ranged from good to excellent early and late with jigs and Daredevil spinners. At mid-day, Zeke's garlic bait or salmon eggs seems to work best.
Blanding 3 and Blanding 4 reservoirs offer good to excellent fishing respectively. Zeke's garlic and salmon eggs have been the most effective fish-getters at Blanding 3, while white marshmallows or Zeke's chartreuse cheese bait has worked best at Blanding 4.
Benches Reservoir - Fishing success was good with PowerBait.
Blue Lake - (by Grassy Lake) The lake has had little or no angler pressure.
Boulger Reservoir - Fishing was good with rainbow PowerBait about 18 inches in front of a bubble three-fourths full of water. Fly fishermen have had luck trolling olive crystal buggers.
Cleveland Reservoir - Fishing success has ranged from slow to good. PowerBait in the early morning seems best. Todd Munford recommends corn or yellow PowerBait. Trollers have done okay with Panther Martins or copper Vibrax spinners. In the evenings, try red crystal buggers on sinking line.
Duck Fork Reservoir - Catch-and-release fishing was good for cutthroat trout using a fly and bubble. Brown nymphs or black gnats are recommended. Tiger trout are growing, and promise a good sport fishery in the near future. Only artificial flies or lures may be used.
Electric Lake - Fishing is very spotty. Try rainbow PowerBait or dead minnows. Fly fishing in the north inlet can be good with small dry flies, such as an 18 para Adams or a 16 blue wing olives. Presentation must be delicate. Crystal buggers can be effective early and late in the day.
Fairview Lakes - Conservation Officer Jay Topham reports good fishing at Fairview Lakes and said about any kind of bait is working.
Munford recommends Zeke's Sierra gold or chartreuse PowerBait. Black or brown leech patterns are effective in the evening.
Ferron Reservoir - Pop gear and worms have worked well for trollers. Shoreline anglers have done well with worms. The trout limit is four, but anglers may take a bonus limit of four brookies.
Gigliotti Pond - The pond is planted with more than 600 bluegills, several dozen bass and hundreds of rainbow trout. Please dispose of garbage properly. Please do not dispose of fish in toilets.
Gooseberry Reservoir - Fishing was fair to good with yellow PowerBait and a bubble full of water. Fast-stripping brown leech patterns or olive crystal buggers from a pontoon or tube were good.
Grassy Lake - Fishing continues to be fair for 10 to 12-inch rainbow trout with a fly and bubble or PowerBait or nightcrawlers.
Huntington Creek - Conservation Officer Mike Milburn reported good success in the fly-only zone with small dark patterns, such as the black ant, mosquito and similar patterns in size 14 and 16. Brown trout in the 10 to 16-inch size range are abundant.
Downstream, the following patterns have worked well recently: para Adams, orange stimulators, or red humpies. Good left fork patterns have been the elk hair caddis or Goddard caddis.
Huntington Reservoir - Fishing was variable. Nightcrawlers seem to work best. Tiger trout are growing larger. Many are in the 14 to 18-inch size range.
In the past, Munford has recommended throwing gold Jake's or nightcrawlers in the evening on the west side. Fly fishing in the morning was fair with red crystal buggers. The reservoir is closed to the possession of cutthroat trout and trout with cutthroat markings.
Joes Valley Reservoir - Dedicated hunter James Kulow Jr. visited Joes Valley Reservoir and reported poor fishing conditions. He noted that a few anglers were catching 16 to 18-inch splake on nightcrawlers, but that most anglers didn't catch anything. The trout limit is two; only one over 22 inches; all trout from 15-22 inches must be immediately released.
Lasal Mountains - Dedicated hunter Travis Clark checked LaSal Mountain lakes last weekend and reported fishing at Medicine Lake to be fair. Some trout were being caught on green PowerBait and a bubble, orange PowerBait and sinker as well as a worm under a bubble.
Oowah fishing was excellent. Lots of fish were being caught on PowerBait, salmon eggs or a nightcrawler under a bubble. Fly fishermen were using mosquito patterns. Black Panther Martin spinners were taking a few fish. Dark Canyon fishing was good. Trout were being caught on Bronco Bait or orange or blue PowerBait under a bubble.
Warner Lake fishing was fair. Some fish were being taken with PowerBait under a bubble. Dons Lake fishing was good. Fish were being caught on a nightcrawler and sinker.
Miller Flat Reservoir - A week ago, fishing had been slow for anglers using PowerBait, salmon eggs and nightcrawlers. Fly fishermen did somewhat better by slow-trolling red crystal buggers.
Millsite State Park - A week ago, dedicated hunter James Kulow Sr., reported excellent fishing with green PowerBait tipped with a worm. Trollers were having luck with pop gear. Fly fishermen did well with renegades and royal coachmen patterns.
Petes Hole - Fishing was good over the weekend with worms and PowerBait. Fly fishermen were having luck with renegade or mosquito patterns. Rainbow trout were mostly 10 to 12 inches.
Potters Ponds - James Kulow Jr. reported good fishing for 12-inch trout. Rainbow PowerBait, worms and a fly and bubble were the most popular offerings.
Scofield Reservoir - Milburn reports that shore fishing is becoming more difficult, due to the aquatic vegetation growing in the shallow water. Shoreline fishermen need to find an area where the drop-off is steeper and allows an angler to cast into deeper water.
On the other hand, Milburn said boaters were doing very well with PowerBait and nightcrawlers. The bait performed best when suspended just off the bottom in 12 to 18 feet of water. People trolling pop gear and worms were also doing very well. Milburn warns boaters to watch for changing weather conditions and fast-moving thunderstorms.
Soup Bowl - Fishing was good for 10 to 12-inch trout with worms, PowerBait, and salmon eggs. Fly fishermen have been using royal coachmen patterns with a bubble.
Willow Lake - A week ago, dedicated hunter James Kulow reported excellent fishing with a black wooly worm, PowerBait, worms and Jake's Spin-a-Lures.
Wrigley Springs Reservoir - Fishing was good with green PowerBait. A renegade fly pattern or wooly bugger have been best for fly anglers.

Kent State University organizations the Latino Networking Caucus (LNC) and the Spanish and Latino Student Association (SALSA) proudly invite the community to the third annual Hablemos (Let's Talk) Conference in the Kent Student Center on April 19. Registration and check-in for the conference begins at 9:30 a.m.
LNC and SALSA have made Hablemos an annual spring event for the campus community.
"Hispanics are the largest minority population in the United States, therefore these types of conferences that focus on Hispanic/Latino issues are significantly important," said T. David Garcia, Kent State's associate vice president for enrollment management and chair of the LNC. "I believe our society needs to have more constructive dialogues related to many issues. Hablemos (Let's Talk) allows people to share their thoughts and ideas related to the topics selected for the conference."
The conference's first speaker is Juan Andrade Jr., Ph.D., president of the United States Hispanic Leadership Institute located in Chicago. Andrade will address the socioeconomic and political impact Latinos play in our society. In addition, he will provide best practices for organizations to follow with this emerging population.
The conference sessions are open to anyone to attend, but reservations for the luncheon are required and can be made by sending an email to email@example.com. Space for the luncheon is limited. Reservations will be accepted until Tuesday, April 16.
Registration and check-in begins at 9:30 a.m. in the Kent Student Center Kiva. The conference opens with Andrade's speech. The luncheon takes place in room 306 of the Kent Student Center. The conference will close with Pierluisi and panel discussion back in the Kent Student Center Kiva.

Lams idea' ...
anyhow Quake seems on a good way back to the top
FreeDom Nephie
suggestion: choose (1 map is fine, maybe on weekly base) the map by poll also. chemical is a horrible choice for domi ^.^
gj for the update
German RA3 since 2001 [p]lague, rdm team-radium, n!faculty, pRophecy, kuu seppuku
European QL CTF+CA since 2009
Competitive? I beat friggin battletoads, get lost...
What are sampler matches?
This has been a great week, and it will be interesting to see what's being played once everything has settled down. I think the sampler idea is a good one, and hope it tempts a few more subscribers.
I cannot overstate how much easier it is to fill a game since the match browser was changed - a simple but very effective move. And I like being able to leave it running if I need to go and do some actual real life stuff.
Thanks again, and keep up the good work.
I still find Red Rover confusing though.
thx for the free week
I hope some of the features make it into free version sometime!
Waaa... Domination Sampler? oO
Make a Attack & Defend Sampler please. Domination sucks :P
Work on the cheats problem and make a statement about it.
Then do correct these and success.
-Put new players in T1 and not T3
-"Totally" fix shuffle or autobalance teams and if people don't like it they can buy premium to turn off auto shuffle. (the auto shuffle they tried in dev pick was terrible and not thought through)
- People can only join teams in pairs and if one person leaves last to join is forced to spec. Don't like it start your own server.
- Shorten game durantions via time or score. This should cut down on people leaving. Again the object is to try and ensure a fun time for all.
What I don't like about current setup:
- Why do I have to vote to have a fair game? Every thing I do in life I expect to be fair why is this game different?
- Why can somebody spam the same stupid message or call vote for same map, beeping everybody just to annoy?
- Why can somebody join an even match on the last point?
- why can somebody be unhittably laggy and allowed to play?
- Why are there mysterious game types that I cannot try unless I buy premium?
The veterans will have solutions for most of these but the point is why should the player have to do this when it should be part of the game?
Fun, fair and action equals success

By C.J. McMANUS Sun Advocate reporter
Last weekend's "Anything for a Friend, Reiss Timothy" fundraiser brought together more than 500 Castle Country residents and an army of organizers united behind one Price family's battle against cancer.
The event, held at Carbon High School, raised between $44,000 and $45,000 and was capped off by the surprise donation of a Ford Focus by the Price Auto Group. The car and every bit of the revenue will go to the Timothy family and their son Riess, 3, as they continue to battle Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (ALL).
The massive event started small, as a conversation between locals Joni Hackwell, Heather Hackwell and Brittney Butler, as they discussed Riess's condition and impact it has had on his family and the larger community.
"We knew we wanted to do some type of fundraiser and we started talking with Joe Cottam who owns Bella's [a Mexican grill in Utah County]. He got us in touch with Anything for a Friend and their website," said Hackwell. "The event took off from there."
According to Hackwell, the site was a treasure trove of information and helped to expand the scope of Reiss's fundraiser.
"We put together a committee of over 50 people who donated their services and products, everyone involved was amazingly generous," said Hackwell, he emotions boiling to the surface. "The whole event gave off the most wonderful feeling. This event was personal and you touch people's emotions and see how they want to help."
Anything for a Friend was started by three friends, their dedication to one another and the "healing power of small acts of kindness directed toward a common goal." The organization works nationally to provide support services and create avenues for people like Hackwell and families like the Timothys
Reiss is the youngest son of Amber and Kenny Timothy of Price, who began their battle with cancer when Reiss's persistent illness was diagnosed as leukemia. According to online information, the Carbon County three-year-old is being treated as a high risk ALL patient. While the doctors at Primary Children's Hospital have given him a good prognosis, the potential damage of this cancer is immense.
His treatment, which will continue for at least three years, will include multiple lumbar punctures (chemo inserted into the spinal fluid), bone marrow biopsies, blood transfusions, and many trips to Primary Children's for weekly procedures.
"It's been hard for his parents," said Hackwell. "They are very grateful to the community but it's hard to accept help. I know they have been blown away by the response and are hoping to be able to pay this forward."
A full list of those who donated to the event can be found online at anythingforafriend.com where those interested can also follow Reiss's progress via a blog attached to the site. Those wishing to make donations can also do so online.

When the economy is in the tank, more Americans drown their sorrows in alcohol. The number of U.S. adults drinking booze is at a 25-year high, according to a new Gallup poll. Gallup, which has been keeping track of U.S. drinking habits for the last 71 years, reports that while the numbers move up and down slightly each year, the statistics on American drinking are surprisingly steady. Is drinking a habit that is impossible to stop?
Well, one of the most consistent and robust findings in behavioral sciences supports the notion that our behavior is, to a great extent, habitual and that we encounter difficulties in changing our behavior for the better because we are creatures of habit. However, Chatzisarantis & Hagger's (2010) recent study indicated that implementation intentions have been shown to be an effective self-regulatory strategy influencing habit performance. In general, implementation intentions are conditional statements of intentions, commonly known as if–then plans, taking the form "If a performance context z arises, then I will do x." In the case of stopping drinking, implementation intentions were operationally defined as strategic plans linking socializing goals to strategies facilitating refusal of alcohol. For example, if it is Friday night at the local pub, as soon as a friend or a fellow student offers me an alcoholic drink, I will refuse it by . . . (report what you are going to do or say.). Their study demonstrated that goal-related implementation exercises linking socializing goals to behavioral tendencies to refuse alcohol reduced the acceptance of an offer of a free alcoholic drink among habitual drinkers, as well as nonhabitual drinkers. These findings indicate that goal-related implementation exercises are effective in obstructing habitual health risk behaviors, such as drinking alcohol.

|Gorge fire spreads

Firefighters Wednesday are reassessing their containment plan for a wildfire near Linville Gorge after it spread overnight.
"We had just a little bit of slip over in the western section, but we got a hold of it," Assistant Public Information Officer Dyan Bone said. Firefighters worked late last night tackling the fire as it spread west and further north into the Gorge. As a precaution, all trails in the Linville Gorge Wilderness are closed.
While GPS has yet to reassess the acreage, Bone estimated the northern spread charred 20 additional acres. The last GPS estimate put total charred acres at just under 550, but firefighters say 700 may be a more accurate total today.
Firefighters will be concentrating their efforts this afternoon on a spot on the west side of Old Highway 105.
Firefighters hope cooler temperatures today will help with containment. Firefighters estimate 30 percent of the blaze has been contained.
Closures: Kistler Memorial Highway (Old N.C. Highway 105), Spence Ridge Bridge, and all trails in the Linville Gorge Wilderness
