Capital punishment in Connecticut
|This article is outdated. (August 2015)
Capital punishment in Connecticut formerly existed as an available sanction for a criminal defendant upon conviction for the commission of a capital offense. Since the 1976 United States Supreme Court decision in Gregg v. Georgia until Connecticut repealed capital punishment in 2012, Connecticut executed one individual, although the law allows executions to proceed for those still on death row and convicted under the previous law, but on August 13, 2015, the Connecticut Supreme Court found the death penalty unconstitutional especially holding death row inmates after capital punishment was banned in 2012.
Death row inmates were placed in the Connecticut Department of Correction system. The state's death row for men were incarcerated at Northern Correctional Institution in the town of Somers. The method of execution used was lethal injection. As in any other state, people who are under 18 at the time of commission of the capital crime[1] or mentally impaired[2] are constitutionally precluded from being executed.
Between 1639 and 2005, Connecticut performed 126 executions. Twenty-four executions occurred in Connecticut Colony, prior to its statehood. The remaining 102 executions occurred after Connecticut's 1788 admission to the Union as the fifth state.[3] Contrary to popular belief, Adonijah Bailey was not the oldest person executed at age 79 in 1824; instead, he was tried and sentenced to death at age 80 in January 1825 for the murder of Jeremiah W. Pollock, and hanged himself on May 24, over two weeks before he was to be executed.[4][5] The oldest person executed is Gershon Marx, hanged on May 18, 1905, for murder at age 73.[6] The following are some historical milestones of capital punishment in Connecticut:
|January 30
|first person to be executed
|Native American
|May 26
|first female to be executed
|Young, Alse
|November 21
|last adult female to be executed by hanging
|Bramble, Sarah
|December 20
|youngest person to be executed
|Ocuish, Hannah
|Native American
|November 30
|last person to be executed for a crime other than murder
|Adams, Amos
|May 18
|oldest person to be executed
|Marx, Gershon
|April 7
|last person to be executed by hanging
|Simborski, John
|February 10
|first person to be executed by electric chair
|McElroy, Joseph J.
|Electric chair
|May 17
|last person to be executed by electric chair (as well as the last pre-Furman execution in Connecticut)
|Taborsky, Joseph
|Electric chair
|May 13
|first and only person to be executed by lethal injection
|Ross, Michael
|Lethal Injection
Current status[edit]
After Furman v. Georgia, Connecticut reinstated the death penalty on January 10, 1973.[7] Lethal injection became the method mandated to execute condemned prisoners, replacing the electric chair, which had not been used since Taborsky's execution in 1960.[citation needed]
Unlike most of the other states, the Governor of Connecticut cannot commute the death sentence imposed under State law or pardon a death row inmate. This is determined by the Board of Clemency, on which the Governor does not sit. The other states where the Board has sole authority are Georgia and Idaho.[8]
On May 22, 2009, the Connecticut General Assembly passed a bill that would abolish the death penalty, although it would not retroactively apply to the eleven current Connecticut death row inmates or those convicted of capital crimes committed before the repeal went into effect. The bill was vetoed by Governor Jodi Rell.[9]
On April 11, 2012, the Connecticut House of Representatives voted to repeal capital punishment for future cases (leaving past death sentences in place). The Connecticut Senate had already voted for the bill, and on April 25 Governor Dannel Malloy signed the bill into law, now with the state Supreme Court ruling the death penalty unconstitutional, the state will have to replace the sentences with life without parole or LWOP.[10] That made Connecticut the 17th state in the US without a death penalty, and the fifth state to abolish capital punishment in five years.[11]
During the 366 years between 1639 and 2005, Connecticut has performed a total of 126 executions. This averages to be approximately one execution every three years. The only person to be executed since 1960 has been the serial killer and rapist Michael Bruce Ross on May 13, 2005, for the kidnapping, rapes and murders of Robin Stavinsky, April Brunais, Wendy Baribeault, and Leslie Shelley.[12] Until the 2005 Roper v. Simmons decision, juveniles over the age of 16 could be sentenced to death because state law only required that the offender be tried in adult court to face the death penalty.

Notable executions[edit]
Several notable executions have occurred in both Connecticut Colony and in the state of Connecticut, as indicated below.
- Alse Young — Young, of Windsor, is the first person on record to be executed for witchcraft in the thirteen American colonies. On May 26, 1647, Young was hanged at the Meeting House Square in Hartford, Connecticut, on what is now the site of the Old State House.
- Hannah Ocuish — Ocuish (born 1774) was a mentally retarded Pequot Indian girl who was hanged on December 20, 1786 in New London County, Connecticut. She was accused of killing the young daughter of a prominent white family after quarreling with her over some strawberries. At the time of her execution, Ocuish was 12 years and 9 months old. She is believed to be the youngest person legally executed in America.
- Gerald Chapman – Chapman, a Prohibition-era gangster known as "The Count of Gramercy Park", was the first criminal to be dubbed "Public Enemy Number One" by the press.[13] Convicted of the October 12, 1924 murder of police officer James Skelly in New Britain, Chapman was hanged by upright jerker on April 6, 1926 at the state prison in Wethersfield.
- Michael Bruce Ross — The execution of Ross was the first in Connecticut (and in all of New England) since 1960. It was also the first execution in Connecticut administered by lethal injection. As of 2014, Ross is the most recent inmate executed in Connecticut, although the state's death row houses ten convicted murderers who are in various stages of legal appeals. He is now the last person to die in Connecticut and the states hand.
Death row[edit]
The male death row is located at the Northern Correctional Institution. In 1995 the male death row moved from Osborn Correctional Institution to Northern.[14] The execution chamber is located at Osborn.[15] The York Correctional Institution houses all female prisoners in the state, but as of 2012 no women are on the death row.[16]
Inmates sentenced to death[edit]
There are currently eleven inmates sentenced to death in Connecticut, however, they will be spared execution due to the Connecticut Supreme Court ruling 4-3 vote

- Steven Hayes and Joshua Komisarjevsky – Hayes was condemned to death on December 2, 2010, and Komisarjevsky was condemned on January 27, 2012, for the same crimes.[21][22][23] Hayes was found guilty on 16 out of 17 counts related to the home invasion murders of Jennifer Hawke-Petit, age 48, and her daughters Hayley Petit, 17, and Michaela Petit, 11. William Petit, husband / father of the deceased, survived the attack, and Komisarjevsky was convicted on all 17 counts related to the same set of crimes.

- Russell Peeler, Jr. — Peeler, a drug dealer, was condemned to death on December 10, 2007; he was convicted on October 15, 2007 of ordering his younger brother Adrian Peeler to kill Karen Clarke and her eight-year-old son, Leroy "B.J."

Peeler claims to have no involvement in any of the murders.[26] Peeler is the only inmate on Connecticut's Death Row who did not actually commit murder.[27] Rather, he ordered his brother to commit the murder.[28]
- Richard Reynolds — Reynolds, a Brooklyn, New York, crack dealer, was condemned to death on April 13, 1995.[29] Reynolds murdered Officer Walter T.

Inmates removed from death row[edit]
- Colon, Ivo — In 2000, a jury sentenced Ivo Colon to death for the 1998 murder of his girlfriend's 2-year-old daughter, Keriana Tellado, in Waterbury. In 2004, the Connecticut Supreme Court overturned Colon's death sentence and ordered a new penalty hearing. The State's Attorney eventually decided not to seek the death penalty again. In a subsequent retrial of the penalty hearing, a plea bargain was reached, and Colon received two life sentences.
- Courchesne, Robert — Courchesne was convicted of capital felony by a three-judge panel in the September 15, 1998, deaths of Demetris Rodgers and her baby. Rodgers was eight months pregnant when she was stabbed over a $410 drug debt. Her baby, Antonia, was delivered by emergency Caesarean section minutes after her death, and supposedly died 42 days later. However, on June 4, 2010, Courchesne's death sentence was overturned by the Connecticut Supreme Court, who ruled that the state did not show that Antonia was born alive after he stabbed her pregnant mother to death; upheld his conviction in Rodgers' murder; and ordered a new trial.[34]
- Johnson, Terry — In 1993, Terry Johnson was sentenced to death for the June 5, 1991, murder of Connecticut State Trooper Russell Bagshaw in Windham. In May 2000, his sentence was reduced to life in prison without the possibility of release. Terry Johnson, and his brother Duane Johnson, were convicted of murdering Bagshaw while burglarizing a gun shop. Trooper Bagshaw interrupted the Johnson brothers as they were stealing guns from the shop. Terry Johnson fired 19 times in the darkness with a semiautomatic pistol, killing Bagshaw before he could get out of his cruiser. One bullet found a gap in the trooper's bulletproof vest.
- Santiago, Eduardo — Santiago had been condemned to death on January 31, 2005;[35] he was convicted of capital felony and murder charges after shooting Joseph Niwinski in the left temple as he slept in his West Hartford apartment on December 14, 2000. Prosecutors said Santiago carried out a murder-for-hire scheme in which he agreed to kill Niwinski in exchange for a broken snowmobile and his credit card debt being paid off.[36] However, the Connecticut Supreme Court overturned Santiago's death sentence on June 4, 2012, and ruled that the trial judge, Elliot Solomon, failed to disclose "significant and relevant" mitigating evidence for jury consideration when they had decided to send Santiago to death row in 2005. The court let Santiago's conviction stand and ordered a new trial.[37]

How to File a Petition
Three Parts:Creating Your PetitionGathering Support for Your PetitionFiling Your Petition
Is there an aspect of your county, state, or nation that you want to see changed? Writing and filing a petition is one way to get your voice (and the voices of all who agree with you) heard and change enacted. Follow these steps to write, promote and file a petition.
Part 1 of 3: Creating Your Petition
1Create your own petition. A petition should have specific information in it, relating to you and your cause. Certain vital information should never be left out of a petition for rule-making[1]:
- Provide your name and contact information. This means your address, phone number(s) and an email address, if you have one.
- Explain your proposition. Be specific about what, exactly, you would like the agency you are petitioning to do and why it should be done. If you are requesting that a new park be built in your area, do not simply say 'we would like a new park.' Instead say, 'we demand that the Council of Parks and Recreation allocate money to fund a new park in the Lincoln district of our town.'
- Specify the exact language you want to change, add or remove with the proposed rule amendment.
- Make an argument in favor of your proposal, citing the reasons it would in the best interest of the general public. Your argument should be something like, 'We want a new park for the Lincoln district because our district does not have any parks. We need an area where our children can learn about and enjoy nature.'
- Supply documentation of any data that supports your argument. Create a petition that includes facts, charts, graphs, scientific evidence, photos or signed statements of those who support your proposal.
- List any laws that pertain to your particular proposal, if they are in support of your argument.
2Make sure your petition meets all of the requires. Read it again and make sure that it describes the situation, states what is needed to change the situation, and explains why these changes are necessary. Is your argument clear? If you were someone who did not know about this situation, would you understand what the petition is arguing for?
- Have someone else read over your petition. Does it make sense to them? Is there anything they would like clarified?
3Determine how many signatures you will need to reach your goal. You should contact your local government offices to find out how many signatures you need and whether or not you are required to get permission for your petition before you begin to circulate it and collect signatures.
- Is there any particular information that is required along with the signatures? For instance, if you are trying to get a candidate added to a ballot, is an address for each signature required. A clerk from your local government office will be able to answer these questions, as each local government has its own set of rules regarding petitions.
4Create a signer's form. This is the page (or pages) on which people add their signatures. Put the petition title on the top of the page (for example, Petition for New Park in Lincoln District.)
- Divide the page into five columns. There should be a column for: Name, Address, Phone Numbers, Signature, and Voter registration number. You can create this page using a spreadsheet program on the computer, or you can create it by hand with a ruler and pen. Make sure your have enough spaces for the amount of signatures you will need to collect.
Part 2 of 3: Gathering Support for Your Petition
1Speak to people in person. Get signatures the old fashion way by speaking to people face to face. Go to public places where you will be able to speak to the most people who you think will be affected by this petition. Go to town hall meetings, public forums, etc. Remember to be polite when speaking with people about your issue. No one wants to be bombarded by an angry petitioner when they are simply trying to get to work. Be considerate and know that even if someone supports your cause, he or she might be unable to do so at that exact moment either because of time or economic constraints. Simply thank them for their time and don't take it personally--they will remember your polite demeanor and may even contact you when they have the resources to do so.
- If your petition is regarding an aspect of a local school, speak to people near the school, such as parents dropping their children off at the school.
2Spread the world through email. This method is especially helpful if you created your petition online. Email your petition to all of your friends, family, and acquaintances. Do not spam your email contacts however--no one wants to get bombarded with email after email. Instead, send out your petition, and then send two or three follow up emails over the course of the time you are promoting your petition.
3Give your petition an online presence. Create an online forum, blog, or website for your petition. Make sure to create an area for discussion so that potential signers can ask any questions they may have regarding your petition. It is also important to use social media to your advantage. Spread the word about your petition through online platforms like Twitter and Facebook. Doing so will increase your audience by hundreds, if not thousands, of people.[2]
- It is particularly important to create an online presence for your petition if your petition concerns a nationwide issue.
4Get the media's attention. Ask local newspapers and radios to do stories about your issue. Using local media as a tool to get your message out there is a great way to get more people aware of your issue.Ad
Part 3 of 3: Filing Your Petition
1Send your petition for rule-making to the appropriate local or federal agency. Each state and county has different rules governing how you can file a petition. Visit your state's website and follow the steps listed accordingly. Check the agency's website for instructions on where to send or file a petition. Some agencies have a central office that receives all petitions, while other agencies ask that you send petitions to specific officers. For instance, if you were filing a petition to have an Act placed on the ballot in the state of Maryland, you would need to send your petition to the Secretary of State in Maryland.[3]
- You can also call your local government office, or even your state government office, and ask to speak with a clerk about the steps that you can take to file your petition.
2Look for agency acknowledgment and receipt of your petition. Each state and federal agency handles petitions differently. The agency you filed your petition with may post notices to the public on their websites, publish a receipt of notice on the Federal Register or contact you personally.
3Wait while your petition is processed. Again, each federal agency handles this differently. Some may open the petition up to public input while others may consider your petition privately and internally. Once a decision has been made on your petition, the agency will publish the results online, in the Federal Register, and will most often notify you of the outcome.
- Keep in mind that it can take months and sometimes years for federal agencies to make a decision on your petition.
Give us 3 minutes of knowledge!
- Each federal agency has its own guidelines for petitioning. Inquire with the appropriate agency before you file your petition for rule-making to be sure you provide the required information.

GOODRICH — A suspect remains in custody in the Polk County Jail in lieu of bonds totaling $125,000 for the robbery of a Goodrich church, unlawful possession of a firearm, and the surrender of a bond for a prior San Jacinto County charge. On Oct. 24, 2012 the Polk County Sheriff's Office received a call from the First Apostolic Church in Goodrich reporting an aggravated robbery that had already occurred. Sheriff's deputies and detectives arrived on scene and began gathering evidence and speaking with the victim. The victim was able to give a good description of the suspect and the vehicle. Numerous items had been taken from inside the church and surrounding buildings. Detective Christopher Lima came upon a vehicle and person matching the description given by a victim in San Jacinto County. The person then exited the vehicle and fled into the woods. In the back of the suspect vehicle in plain view were items matching the list of items stolen from the church. The person and owner of vehicle was identified as Brandon Dwayne Hook, age 23.Search warrants were obtained for Hooks' vehicle and property. A large amount of the property taken from the church was located in Hook's vehicle and on his property. These items were returned to the church, a pistol was also found under the seat in the vehicle. On Oct. 25, Detectives Christopher Lima and Vance Berry located Brandon Dwayne Hook hiding out in an abandoned house in San Jacinto County. Hook was arrested for aggravated robbery. Bond was set by Justice of the Peace Steven McEntyre at $100,000. On Nov. 7, a warrant for unlawful possession of firearm by felon was also served on Hook. Bond was set by Justice of the Peace Larry Whitworth at $15,000. Burglary of a habitation charges are pending on Brandon at this time due to other stolen items found in his vehicle being identified as coming out of a house on FM 1988.

Liberal Gun Haters Like Militarized Cops Tromping Through Their Homes
Posted By kurtnimmoadmin On April 21, 2013 @ 8:14 pm In Old Infowars Posts Style,Tile,U.S. News | Comments Disabled
April 21, 2013
Apologists for the police state say we needed all those combat troops – er, excuse me, policemen – because there was a terrorist on the loose. It was necessary to violate the Fourth Amendment and search all those homes without court-issued search warrants.
But imagine if half the people in the neighborhood pictured below owned an AR-15 or some other suitable firearm. Militarized cops going house-to-house would not have been necessary. No self-respecting terrorist would force his way into a house where the owner has a firearm and is trained in its proper use. If he had, we wouldn't have had to put up with so many hours of hysterical drama on Fox, CNN, MSNBC, etc.
But then this is Watertown, a suburb of Boston, in the liberal state of Massachusetts. Liberals fear and hate guns. Because of this they have to put up with cops pointing automatic weapons at them and screaming for them to put up their hands. They are as defenseless as a herd of sheep.
Liberalism is like some kind of disease. It may be fatal.

First responders are at risk for occupational exposure to bloodborne pathogens, including hepatitis B virus, hepatitis C virus, and human immunodeficiency virus (HIV).
Exposure incidents may occur through the following:
- Needlesticks or cuts from sharp objects contaminated with another person's blood.
- Contact of the eyes, mouth, nose, or broken skin with blood or other potentially infectious body fluids.
Some employees are reluctant to report exposure incidents. Encourage your employees to report all exposures.
This way, you can carry out your responsibility to take appropriate post-exposure actions to protect your workers, their families, and the public against infection from bloodborne pathogens.

We have chosen to call the journal Udaya. This word,
of Sanskrit origin, but Khmericized since ancient times,
signifies "the rising sun", and by extension,
"prosperity, success". In the context of contemporary
Cambodia, it has added the advantage of suggesting rebirth.
The journal publishes research on Cambodia in all domains
of the human sciences. Each issue includes two principal
types of original contributions:
1. In-depth articles (reflection and synthesis). Each
edition includes between three and four articles. Senior
theses from Phnom Penh's Department of Archaeology (Royal
University of Fine Arts) may be chosen for editing in view
of publication in article form in the journal. This ensures
that one or more articles of each edition will be composed
directly in Khmer.
2. "Monographs" presenting unprocessed data resulting
from field research. This may include data collected, for
example, by archaeologists, ethnologists, health or social
Each edition also includes a translation into Khmer of
an article concerning Khmer culture published in the past
and chosen for its particular importance in the domain (e.g.
Cœdès' "Etudes cambodgiennes").
The journal attempts to respond to a bi-fold void in publications
concerning Khmer culture.
There is, firstly, very little substantial reading material
currently published in the Khmer language. Virtually all
scientific research on Khmer culture appears in foreign
languages, particularly French, English and Japanese. The
material is moreover dispersed in different periodicals
or books which are often difficult to attain, and which
go rapidly out of print. The little that is published in
Khmer rarely undergoes scholarly or professional supervision,
and generally lacks solid scientific foundations. Though
translations, particularly of applied research carried out
in the NGO context, are relatively common now, the same
lack of scientific and linguistic foundations more often
than not renders the translated text incomprehensible to
a native Khmer speaker. For these many reasons, Khmer students,
scholars and professionals have relatively limited access
to tools essential for developing critical knowledge of
their own culture. Udaya aims to progressively fill this
void in Khmer reading materials by publishing articles written
directly in Khmer under the supervision of recognized scholars
and professionals, as well as carefully adapted translations
of foreign language texts. The publication of the Khmer
version of Angkor. A Manual for the Past, Present and Future
demonstrates the importance of this endeavor. This is the
first full-length book on Angkor ever to be translated into
Khmer; with numerous additions meant to illuminate the issues
discussed for the Khmer reader, the translation could in
fact be called an adaptation of the original.
Secondly, the journal aims to fill a void in foreign language
materials concerning Khmer culture. No single forum for
publications in this domain currently exists. Both national
and international readers will benefit immensely from a
regular exchange of information in easily accessible form.
The bi- or tri-lingual nature of the journal will encourage
readers to consult materials in a foreign language which
may otherwise be neglected. The journal's targeted readership
is diverse, including both national and international students,
scholars and professionals. It is precisely in view of facilitating
an open union of this community of people interested in
Khmer culture that the journal is conceived. Directed toward
a national and international readership, the journal aims
to elevate the level of reflection in both communities,
and also to unite them.

Williams death penalty trial beginsUPDATED 8:10 PM HST Mar 11, 2014
Gruesome accounts today of a 5-year-old's death and allegations that could result in the state's first death penalty for her father! KITV4's Andrew Pereira has more on today's opening statements.Video Transcript
Gruesome accounts today of a 5-year-old's death... allegations that could result in the state's first death penalty for her father! Former soldier Naeem Williams is on trial for murder, but his defense team wants to shine the spotlight on his wife. KITV4's Andrew Pereira, was at today's opening statements and joins us with more. Andrew? Yunji, Paula... the ex-Schofield Barracks soldier doesn't deny beating his daughter, but his lawyers say it was Delilah Williams who caused the child's death. The Williams' home at Wheeler Army Airfield became a house of horrors for 5- year-old Talia Williams. The amount of punishment the child endured is difficult to comprehend... U-S attorney Darren Ching says Talia was beaten by her father Naeem Williams almost daily, first with a plastic ruler that the child knew as "Mr. Paddle," then with a belt after Talia repetedly soiled herself. The prosecution alleges Talia was forced to eat her own feces, and was tied to her bed post where she would be whipped with the belt. On the day Talia died, the prosecution says Naeem Williams lied to investigators. The former solider's defense team say Williams doesn't dispute the horrific abuse... but claims it was his wife Delilah Williams who caused the child's death from prior beatings... beatings that included stomping on the girl's stomach. Defense attorney John Phillipsborn says Delilah suspected her husband of cheating on her, and projected her rage onto Talia once the child arrived in Hawaii on Dec. 13, 2004. Phillipsborn also pointed out Naeem Williams was ill equipped to care for a special needs child like Talia, whose development was stunted by malnourishment when she lived with her biological mother Tarshia Williams in South Carolina. But the prosecution says it was Naeem Williams who delivered a fatal blow to Talia's chest on July 16, 2005... causing the little girl to fall forward and hit her head. The defense team says Naeem WILL take the witness stand in his own defence, and evidence will show the plea deal his wife struck with prosecutors was built on lies. Under that deal, Delilah Williams will spend 20 years in prison. The jury that will decide the fate of Naeem Williams consists of seven men and five women. If Williams is found guilty, the jury must be unanimous in recommending a sentence of death. If not, Williams will receive a life sentence. Paula?

Ok, lesson learned. So today, well, let's say it didn't go as planned. My alarm for work did not go off as I reset the clock after a power outage, but hence forgot to reset the alarm and went to bed a tired pup and used to my normal routine, did not bother to check the lil switch for the alarm. So....I got a lucky day home, you see, in my line of work (seditary, line of work)...BUS Operator for a transit agency, well one second late, and your done for the day. So there is the first lil problem....
Ok, so have the day off, I can eat well, and excersice, and relax a bit or two. Great breakfest I had I tell you, lunch...don't ASK. Ok, here it goes, spilling the beans.....
Hubby and I decided to eat at Wendy's, what a smart man I am married to, he eats a salad, and I do....wait for it, wait for it.....jr. cheese burger deluxe, small fries, and a frosty (which I only ate half of) OH (THANK GOD), came home feeling full, I wonder why. Logged in my meal onto sparkpeople, WHOLY CRAP! 800 calories for what I just consumed! You know what that means?? Dinner is a salad!! With no dressing! ha ......That will be the last time Wendy's get's my money! Lesson learned thank you!!
Now I am home, and well, feeling ya, guilty, and so I decided to dust the treadmill some more! Yee haw...which reminds me, I must find some better workout music to listen too. So I am not feeling as bad as when I originally entered that awful information, but I am still sticking to a salad!
The water issue, that's going great today, concerned while at work, but going to make the best of it,
So live and learn I say and will do, hopefully everyone else is doing the same and having a great week! Thanks for letting me vent and maybe someone else won't make that poor decision.

Don't feel guilty! You learned a lesson, and you ate half of what you originally ordered. And on top of that, you adjusted your next meal to accommodate the higher-than-planned amount of calories. That is fabulous!
Keep it up!

Thanks so much, and your right, I need to pick one thing, and I am proud of my excercise today. BUT am amazed at how many calories were in what I ate, Blew my mind, no wonder we are the way we are. Thanks again!!

Don't beat yourself up! LOL! You are like the rest of us! We set high standards, then screw it up! Progress, not perfection!
Take it slow at first... SP is a real lifestyle change. We didn't get where we are over night, and we will not become totally new people overnight. It is one day, one step, one moment at a time. Pick one thing you think you can accomplish, and do it. Build on that.
Have you read The Spark? It helped me get off to a really good, solid start.

Spanish Lake (Work-in-Progress)
Director Morton, who grew up in Spanish Lake in the 1980s, returns to his hometown to examine its storied past, troubled present, and uncertain future. In 2008, the township in North St. Louis County was cited as No. 6 on Forbes' list of "America's Fastest-Dying Towns." Why? Two words: white flight. A devastating epidemic in the St. Louis in the 1960s and '70s, white flight continues today, as Spanish Lake's example demonstrates: In recent years, to escape integration, suburban whites are either returning to the cities they once fled or moving to more distant exurban enclaves. This cycle raises questions for not just St. Louis but also the nation at large: How far have we come in terms of racial equality? Is racism an inherent and irreparable human flaw? "Spanish Lake" asks these provocative questions of both experts and former and current Spanish Lake residents, providing some surprising answers.
With director Morton and producer Matthew Jordan Smith.

I'm psyched about Crystal Chappell's return to Days of Our Lives
That said, even while people are saying that soaps are dead -- or dying -- I'm excited about Crystal Chappell returning to Days of Our Lives.
You want to know how excited? I'm going to watch. After Deidre Hall and Drake Hogestyn were unceremoniously dumped by the soap, I drifted away. But I'm willing to give Days another try, especially because my curiosity has been piqued about Crystal's return.
You see, her character -- Carly Manning Alamain -- has been off the canvas since 1993. But you know what? I watched Days of Our Lives in 1993 and I liked Carly. I cared about the character. And I'm still invested enough to tune in.
Here's a little tease from NBC with Crystal and her costars -- Peter Reckell as Bo and Kristian Alfonso as Hope -- about what to expect.
Crystal made a few brief appearances in the last week or so, but this week things start heating up when she finally gets to Salem.
Oh, by the way, I'm not expecting Carly to be Olivia, Crystal's character on Guiding Light. She was something special and the way GL wrapped up her story with Natalia was rather groundbreaking for daytime.

At the crossroads-A A +A
By Dr. Bob Ocio
Isyo ug Servicio
Saturday, February 8, 2014
TODAY, February 8, in the Philippines, (Feb. 7 in the Vancouver) is the 17th birthday of our youngest, Andrea. She is a high school graduate in the Philippines and now at Grade 11th here.
I remember how she cried wildly calling for her mother who stepped on the airplane for the US when she was only 5 years old and how she could be bribed to pacify for food and play at Jollibee later. Now, she would even cook the food on her own if she does not like what is on the table.
Today too, I visited the St. Anthony Catholic church for the regular morning mass and later to the Vancouver Public library for coffee, books and internet; and I could recall how in those seemingly lousy and lonely days off for three years in New York, I would visit the St. Patrick's Cathedral prior to going to the bookstore for coffee and endless reading and internet. God gave me the grace to be isolated from gruesome busy farming, clinic hours and politics way back in the Philippines for solace and comfort in the home of our Lord for meditation, reflection and worship.
Today too, the Gospel speaks about how St. John the Baptist would retire from his mission for an offer of his head cut off and placed on a platter by a King who promised to grant the wish of a wicked unbeliever. What a way to celebrate life in the good hands of the Lord!
Today, I posted via social media a reaction to a statement attributed to vice mayor Ian Acenas when he asked: "Why is Moreno afraid of the city council? My retort was, "Why is the council afraid of Dongkoy?" That speaks of 15 years of the Emano administration which was ended momentarily by a loss to the current Mayor Oscar Moreno. Then, I saw the picture posted by Brod Oscar Caiña which showed how the former beautiful and historic Cagayan de Oro Amphitheater was converted into a virtual "bridge without a river."
That is the crossroad of a legacy which has to end no matter how one would cling to it. That's me at the cross roads at the other side of the fence.
Not too long ago, a close colleague in the profession, Dr. Jong Palacio would surprisingly talk about God on his birthday and then was found dead a few days later. I could also recall, how a year ago, another close colleague, Dr. Bong Cruz would suddenly die of heart attack. Bong was one of a few friends whom I successfully invited to join the brotherhood of Christian Businessmen and Professionals. A few days ago, a former high school classmate and childhood friend, Edwin Du died of cancer even his family and the community of the Couples for Christ would have joined him during his last years in life. Another town mate, the jolly and lovable neighbor, Dr. Ed Pimentel whom everyone calls "Eddie Boy" passed away on the same day with Edwin. This is a major crossroad which reminds me always that life here on earth is very short, may their souls rest in peace in the Lord.
Today, I could see on the papers reports of a coming major storm surge in Britain which already caused earlier major damage to a railway. There are reports of strange things, strange events going on worldwide.
Even then, man continues to move on as the Olympics in Suchi Russia have started despite concerns for safety. Already, a pet leopard owned by President Putin was reported to have attacked 2 reporters even as Putin would invest billions to showcase Russia in these events. The question is? Are we on the cross roads to one of the last Olympic games in our times?
We all have memories great, small, uneventful, joyful or sad; right or wrong; but as we look back and reflect, we can appreciate in awe, wonder and praise of our Creator who has been patient all along. In all these, life could have been more meaningful had we done better. Yet, we can only find our way to the next level. At the end of the day, it will all be between us and God and how we dealt with our brothers, sisters and neighbors.
