Berks County authorities are calling on the public to get involved in the investigation of mysterious homicide.
They want all residents who have security cameras to check the footage from Wednesday morning.
That's when police say a Latino man in his 40s was killed, and his body later dumped on the River Road exit ramp off of Rt. 12 in Reading.
"We're looking for the public's help. If they saw anything unusual," said John Adams, Berks County District Attorney.
Neighbors like Nick Benny say he's ready to get involved in the investigation. He is one of several residents on his block with security cameras.
"I'll review it. Yeah, and then I'll call them and let them know," said Benny.
Police are also hoping somebody may have surveillance footage that will reveal clues as to where the victim was killed.
An autopsy on Thursday determined that the man died of a gunshot wound to his upper body, said Sgt. John Solecki, Reading Police Dept.
So far, no family members have contacted police, authorities said.
Investigators say if they don't hear from family members soon, they may have to release the victim's name to the media.
They say it is key to find out who the victim was with before this crime so they can move forward with this investigation.
Anyone with information is asked to call Crime Alert: Berks County immediately.
The number is 877-373-9913.
Anonymous calls are accepted, and you could earn up to a $10,000 reward for information leading to an arrest.

Aleppo Airport Closed as Rebel Attacks Continue
Military Vows to 'Clear' Area Around Airport So It Can Reopen
As fighting continued in Syria's largest city of Aleppo, officials closed the international airport, citing the threat of rebel attacks against it and repeated promises by militants to target civilian aircraft flying out of the airport.
Syrian rebels attacked Syrian Airways flight RB201 to Cairo in mid-December, and had promised to attack all flights coming out of Aleppo and Damascus. The area around Aleppo is much more contested than Damascus, however, and it appears rebels just couldn't be kept far enough away from the Aleppo airport to keep it running.
Exactly how big the impact of the closure will be is unclear, as fighting has brought Aleppo's industry to a halt for months, and the airport was not in nearly as broad of use as it had been.
Whether the closure is permanent or not also isn't clear, because while airport officials certainly gave that impression, the Syrian military insisted it would soon "clear" the area around the airport from rebels, potentially allowing it to reopen.

About Humes & Berg:
A company like Humes & Berg really doesn't need an introduction, but their history is so impressive, it's hard to resist singing their praises. Founded in 1935, Willie Berg was a hard-working Chicago musician who was respected amongst many well-known artists of the day, including Woody Herman, Duke Ellington and Harry James. In fact, Willie would often attend local clubs and sell everything from reeds and cymbals to valve oil and much more, and by the time he began making mutes for brass instruments, it didn't take long before he was specializing in a wide array of musical accessories.
Within this catalog, you'll find everything from drum cases, cymbal bag and percussion cabinets, to an extensive range of brass instrument mutes. For example, if you're a bass trombonist, you'll love the Humes & Berg Wah Wah Mute. One of their best sellers, this Harmon-style mute features a classic buzz sound, and an adjustable tone color tube that allows you to achieve the exact sound you want. Perfect for jazz bands, the Wah Wah Bass Trombone mute is exactly what you'd expect from a company that has set the gold standard by which all other mutes are judged.
As mentioned, Humes & Berg has many drums bags to choose from, and the Galaxy Bass Drum Bag will give the biggest drum on your kit all the protection it needs and deserves. Featuring a nylon-welded design, Galaxy cases are built with careful attention to every detail to ensure they can handle the busy touring lifestyle of today's professional percussionist. While you're at it, be sure to also check out the Drum Seeker Cymbal Bag with Dividers. Consisting of a fleece-lined interior, rigid foam padding, dividers, and oversized zippers, this cymbal bag is durable, road-ready, and is a sure-fire way to keep your cymbals in tip-top shape when they're not in use.
Of course, Humes & Berg's choices just keep on going from there. You'll find trumpet cup mutes, trombone straight mutes, bucket mutes, timpani covers... you name it. Your best bet is to simply dive in and explore their entire section; after all, with a company as respected as Humes & Berg, any choice you make will be a great one.

Over the past 40 years I have been involved with several different "R&B" bands and played various college circuits, also playing in local clubs and many private parties. I have had a wonderful opportunity to meet and play with many professional musicians in my career. My approach to teaching is to customize lessons based upon the individuals' age, current skill level and their personal goals. Teaching them how to read music, phrase their sound and control the dynamics to produce a cohesive piece of music. I often record students during a lesson, which allows them the ability to hear their progress week to week and helps them to focus on the areas in need. Many of my students have credited me as having had a positive influence for them to continue their music education at college level, and they themselves have become accomplished musicians.
Jason is an acclaimed professional guitarist, singer and songwriter who also teaches privately in Nassau County, Long Island, NY. Jason was a student of famed NYC guitarist and current Berklee school of music professor, Dave "Fuze" Fiuczynski, after first beginning his own guitar playing journey as a 10-year-old conservatory student on the south shore of Long Island. In addition to writing and performing full time, Jason has been teaching professionally for over 10 years and, in that time, has maintained a consistent student base of 25-30 students at a time, guys and girls, men and women, ranging in ages from 10 to 75. Style interests vary greatly and Jason is very conscious of working with each student to help them discover their own unique voice and passion.
I have been teaching for over 25 years now, and my students have included David Lee Roth, Edward Burns, Joie Lee, and John Leguziamo. Besides teaching music, I also teach fine arts classes in both studio painting and life drawing. I have also composed the scores and cues for many film projects over the years.
Hi I'm David and I am a very enthusiastic music teacher; composer, musician and I come to your home for lessons. My goal in life is to enrich people's lives with music and have fun. I have 16 years of extensive experience ( B.A. Music - Conservatory of Music - Concentration: Studio Composition / Master's in Education - M.A.T. Middle Childhood / Adolescence Education (Grades 5-12) 3.56 GPA. I teach guitar lessons with learners of all ages, especially beginners, children, teens and adults. I offer customized lessons and use a gentle teaching style and have vast music experience that will surely energize and nurture any guitar player. I create an organized custom guitar lesson workbook for each of my students. This way, my students have a weekly organized practice routine and they are not overwhelmed. I currently work in our local schools and for 2 years, from 2012 to 2014 I taught an enrichment after-school guitar and songwriting class. I created the curriculum and music workbook specifically for 6 and 7-year old children whom I taught at Pequenakonck Elementary School in North Salem, NY. In 1997 I won an award for the most improved studio composition student at Purchase College. For 12 years I have work in our Westchester schools as a teacher and have been fingerprinted and had a background check done so that I can work in the public school system in New York State.
With over ten years of experience as a songwriter, performer, teacher, and recording artist, I have harnessed my passion for music, using it as an effective tool in empowering youth and adults from all over the world to build self-confidence through self-expression. Most recently, I developed a community music learning program which serves to give back to the community through music lessons and workshops that create accessibility and opportunity for beginners to pick up an instrument or write a song, to build upon musical self-expression. As a singer/songwriter, I have released several albums, teaming up with producer James Sabella (Marcy Playground, Nine Days), vocalist Angela Workman (Stevie Wonder) and percussionist Steve Holly (Paul McCartney).Additionally, I have successfully funded and organized several US tours garnering support from national press and college radio stations. Additionally, I have organized and performed at various fundraising events, raising money for children affected by life threatening illnesses as well as communities affected by natural disasters

The BBB has affirmed Musika as a reliable, trustworthy, safe business to work with, and we have the customer feedback to support this. We are continually working to make sure that Musika is a business you can trust.

It is beneficial for young students to start off by playing on a half size or three-quarter size acoustic guitar. Older students who can manage to hold their guitar comfortably may wish to use an electric guitar. A brand new student model guitar can be purchased for between $150 - $200. Amplification and guitar cables will need to be bought at additional costs for those wanting to play electric guitar. Students who enjoy and like playing their instrument will develop faster, so it is important to try and buy high quality instruments as these are typically easier to play.
We recommend that adult students looking to start guitar lessons have a clear goal in mind - such as learning to play a few of their favorite songs. When you start lessons, a teacher will help you unlock the skills required to reach your goals. Keep in mind that you might not be able to start off with the exact song you want to learn - it could take months of study and practice to learn all of the notes and chords required to turn your dream into a reality.
Need to save time because of your busy schedule? Why not try in-home guitar lessons? A qualified instructor in our network can travel to you and provide excellent quality instruction in the comfort and convenience of your own home.
At Musika, we appreciate that every student learns at their own pace. As such, the experienced teachers in our network produce customized guitar lessons specifically for the requirements of each individual student. Teachers can design lessons for any student, regardless of their age, experience, or ability. Some of the things students can expect to learn during their lessons are learning all the notes of the guitar, playing and rhythmic techniques such as fretting, fingering, and strumming, how to read musical notation and tablature, learning how to play a variety of different chords, such as open and barre chords, and music theory. Over time, as each student progresses, they will learn how to piece everything they have learned together, in order to form complete compositions. Students can learn to play their favorite songs, or even to write their own music!
Students can start their guitar lessons as young as 6 years of age. A half sized classical guitar will be easier to hold for young students, and nylon strings are softer on the fingers than steel strings. By the age of 7 or 8, most students are able to start forming chords, and can learn to play and sing along to their favorite songs. Often students will progress on to using a full size guitar by the ages of 10-12. During these years, students usually develop a taste for rock music and will want to learn the electric guitar.
Review by William Klepatsky
Very knowledgeable on every aspect of music theory. I listen to recording artists playing various classical pieces, Dan's playing is much like a recording artist's playing. Always on time. Winning happy personality, a great role model. Puts me at ease when I am playing. Have two friends who hold music degrees, I count him a third, something special about the minds and personalities of good pianists. Thanks Dan.

Angela is a phenomenal teacher. She is full of charisma and is a joy to work with. Most of my experience with her has been focused on working in the Alexander Technique and she seems very knowledgeable in this study. I would highly recommend her to any prospective student. I have seen myself improve dramatically in a few short weeks with her guidance (and much practice of course!)
Review by Richardpoplawski
I feel she is a very professional teacher and I have already recommended your company and her to my friends who have children that play musical instruments. My 8 year old son has never been so enthusiastic to play his violin. His skills have improved almost exponentially since we have began lessons with Lauren. Your company has exceeded my expectations and I am very happy to have found it online.
Review by Kaleen Todoroff
Noel is amazing. She is helping me to work toward my vocal goals for auditions to several musical theaters. She has helped me choose strong audition pieces and is teaching excellent ways to get the sound I need in a safe and healthy way. She works outside our lessons on new warm ups and new music pieces. She is the best.
Review by Stan
My two daughters wanted to study piano fore some time now and just recently I found Musikalessons website and teacher Milica. I can only say that my daughters are very happy with their piano lessons and simply adore Milica. They already made a great progress and we're all happy with what they learned in this short period. Thank you Musikalessons and Milica.
Review by Shelonda
Henry is teaching my daughter how to play piano. Henry is an excellent teacher, we really like and appreciate him. His teaching style works very well for my daughter, she is comfortable which makes learning enjoyable. Henry is very patient and I can see that he is passionate about teaching music. Great teacher for sure.
Review by Julie Buranelli
My daughter really enjoys her lessons with Pavel. She is an absolute beginner and Pavel is right with her as she learns the basics. She is completely engaged and always looks forward to her lesson. He packs a lot of learning into their 30 minute time slot - he gets right to it as soon as he walks in the door! He is a great teacher - we highly recommend!
Review by Jacob Solomon
Ileen is a very attentive instuctor. she is patient and works hard to see her student succeed. if a concept is unclear she expains it in other ways to ensure understanding. I would highly recommend ileen to students of all levels who want to learn guitar and music theory to thoroughly enjoy the instrument and music
Review by Andy Snyder
Giorgi has made learning cello even more fun. From the sympathetic, "It is hard" to the precise, "Be careful about the curve of the thumb" he has strengthened learning in every lesson, without being overwhelming. He started playing a little duet on only the 3rd lesson or so, which made me feel, even as a beginner, that I'm already starting to make (occasionally screachy) music. He has suggested a variety of drills and practice techniques which have also sped up the process a lot. And he has a good sense of humor and surprising amount of patience.

Anyone else have what they call a 'footling breech' baby? Mine is breech with both feet pointing down so when she kicks me it feels like her little feet are just about to come right out of my hoo-ha! It is the freakiest feeling!!!!
Footling breech!
Comments (5)
I have a footling breech (34 weeks) and feel the same way. Yesterday I got such a swift kick that I thought he popped his water. Went to the hospital and all is well, but those little feet can be killer!
My DD was a footling breech as well, and never flipped back around.
Hang in there!
I keep getting those kicks too. Just lovely...
Expecting #4 in August, mom of Kat (12), Jillian (7), & Bowman (3)
My1st dd was a footling breech, and I totally understand! It is sooo uncomfortable when they kick down there. I can remember at the very end of my pregnancy with her, falling to the ground from the pain. I kept calling my dr. and saying "something is wrong", but he just kept saying, "nope, she's just kicking really hard down there". I totally feel your pain!
�Wife to Ben, Mommy to Ellie (10/07), Zoe (8/09), and Aaron (5/11).
Both my older children were footling breech babies and I felt the same way....this is my first head down baby and I feel like he is pushing on my diaphragm and using his head as a battering ram against my cervix...but I only have 39 days left so its almost over!

Boris Johnson calls on Tories to unite and for the government to 'get on with legalising equal marriage'
Post your comment
Comments on this article are now closed.
Reader comments
legailsing != legalising
Good in you Boris!!!
Ewwww, did mean Good 'on' You Boris!! :)
We need more Torys like Boris to open their mouths and support the SSM Bill.
Thanks Boris.
Yes, its good to hear Boris be positive about equal marriage as Mayor of a large City but do you remember the car crash interview on the Andrew Marr show? After that interview I'm not sure that anyone should trust Boris or his actions / judgements.
However I expect people will be looking at his statement today, not dredging up old interviews from the Andrew Marr show. The headlines will be about his current comments, which are undeniably supportive.
It's .. thought-provoking … that many of those opposed to equal marriage rights are the very same people who want to replace Cameron with Boris !!!!
Incredible cognitive dissonance :D
He's pro-Europe too. Two months into the job and they'd be bitching about him just as much as they currently do Cameron. Let's face it, nothing short of propping the reanimated corpse of Maggie up in a blue frock outside Number 10 will appease the "swivel-eyed loons" (chortle).
Good old Boris :) xx

Dry outlook may spark cattle rethinkBy Megan Woodward, Thursday November 22, 2012 - 11:16 EDT
Rural lobby group AgForce says many northern cattle producers will be reassessing their carrying capacity after the release of the weather bureau's seasonal outlook.
Northern parts of Queensland are forecast to have a 60 per cent chance of higher minimum temperatures, while lower-than-average rainfall is highly likely.
AgForce northern regional manager Paul Burke says the dry wet season will make the next few years harder again for producers.
"Things have been quite difficult in the northern beef industry I guess right back as far as the live exports issues 18 months ago," he said.
"We've certainly had a tough time of it."
He says many producers would be trying to calculate how many cattle they can afford to keep through a dry season.
"Working out how many cattle they can turn off, [it's] not an ideal time to be selling cattle," he said.
"Prices are definitely lower than what producers would like so that certainly weighs into the equation as well.
He says the hot conditions are also not at an ideal time in terms of fire.
"We've had bad fires in Hughenden and we've got bad fires in the Upper Burdekin at the moment," he said.
"All of those things weigh heavily and certainly weigh heavily on the amount of feed there's left for cattle to forage on."

Throwing a bunch of premade assets together is easy. Creating assets to allow for something such as character customization is harder, and takes money & actual effort, things which the 'developers' of games like this tend to avoid.

Interior Security Camera
Herndon HS has begun the process of considering installing interior security cameras. The plan is to install cameras over a two year period. As per county regulation for installation, Herndon will hold a community night, on April 14, 2016 at 7:30pm in the HHS cafeteria. This meeting is designed to answer questions about the use, installation, and purpose for cameras inside Herndon. New cameras would not be installed and activated until September, 2016 for the start of school. These are not monitored 24-7. They are useful only when we need to conduct an investigation. The primary reason for installation of interior security cameras is for greater security for staff and students.
If you are unable to attend the community night/PTSA meeting on April 14, 2016, submit any additional input here.
Please click here for Frequent Answered Questions (FAQ's) regarding Security Cameras.

Herndon HS has a new service learning tool for students! x2VOL by intelliVOL is an award-winning tracking and reporting platform for student service learning hours that is used to customize service goals, centralize service hours and provide diverse service opportunities. x2VOL is available via Family Connection (accessed through BlackBoard) for each student where they can record service hours to be included in their college applications, scholarship applications, or resumes.
Serve. Reflect. Repeat.
Time is on your side with x2VOL. We make it easy to manage your volunteer activities; fast, easy, online. Tracking is easy, and logging hours to meet your school or student organization service requirements is quick. You can find service opportunities, too and write about your experience via Reflections. And we match service opportunities to the things you care about the most, so every hour matters even more.
This is pretty huge: 80% of colleges and universities surveyed by x2VOL agree that service learning history details impact the final decision of admittance.
Volunteering. The more you give the more you get.
For a look at x2VOL and all of its benefits, see the attached flyer and check out this linked video "Fairfax County Public Schools & x2VOL." Please contact Krisna Taylor (email@example.com), HHS Director of Student Services or Mallory Joiner (email@example.com), FCPS Service Learning Resource Teacher with any questions. Thank you!
New online Student Information System
STUDENT INFORMATION SYSTEM - Parent Account Set-Up
This year FCPS is providing SIS Parent Account to Herndon High School families. This will enable access to view attendance, grades, and personal information, establishing another form of communication among student and parents and student and teacher. Also starting September 8, 2015, you must have an active SIS Parent Account to be able to login to FCPS 24-7 Learning. The same login will be used to access both the SIS and FCPS 24-7 systems on this date.
FCPS 24-7 Learning Parent View will provide access to view all of your child's available courses, Family Connection to view Academic and Career Planning and Bus Stop Information. You can also update your child's Emergency Care Information through weCare@school.
SIS Parent Account will provide access to view your child's student information, including attendance, report cards, class schedules, gradebook, course history, discipline, health, and school information, establishing another form of communication between home and school.
Please note that the calendar on the SIS Parent Account does not reflect the teacher's calendar for the class. Continue to consult FCPS 24/7 Blackboard to view the class calendars, announcements, current assignments, and the teachers' grading policies found in the syllabi. The SIS Parent Account also allows students and parents to view student's grades. Once teachers have recorded the grades they will be visible. If there are questions, the parents should discuss the grades with their children for clarification. The expectation is that the student will communicate with both parent and teacher and provide a communication pathway between both.
If you had an active FCPS 24-7 Learning Parent View account by June 18, 2015, you will be able to continue using this account until the beginning of the 2015-16 school year. Each parent has or will receive a letter in the mail providing a web address, activation key, and directions on registering for an SIS Parent account. If you received a letter, but did not act within the allotted 45 days, you can contact our Student Services Department to schedule a time with our Registrar or Student Information Assistant to request a new activation code. We will be available to print new activation codes on Tuesday, September 16th from 6:30-7:00 pm and on Back to School Night, September 29th from 6:00-7:30 pm.
Once you set-up your account here is the link you can use to log in to access your account: https://sisparent.fcps.edu. You will need a registration code to access your account. To learn how you can register your SIS Parent Account (once you have your registration code) please watch this easy to follow video tutorial: http://youtu.be/CUAOZjFvaa0. Additional information is also available here: http://www.fcps.edu/is/instructionaltechnology/247help/parents.shtml.

Parent Teacher Conferences
Herndon High School encourages parents to communicate with teachers in a variety of ways. All parents should use ParentVue and Blackboard to monitor grades and stay updated on instruction, assignments, and upcoming events in each of their child's classes. Parents may also request to receive a progress report from a teacher via e-mail.
If a parent/guardian has a question about their child's progress, we ask that they follow the protocols below prior to requesting a parent-teacher conference:
- Check ParentVue and Blackboard for grades/progress that may answer your question(s).
- If your question(s) is not answered through ParentVue and Blackboard, call/email (703-810-2200) the teacher(s) with whom you would like to speak or from whom you would like to receive information. Contact information is included on the staff directory or on the teacher's webpage.
- If, after a period of ongoing phone or e-mail contact, you feel it is necessary to schedule a face-to-face meeting, you should contact the teacher to arrange a mutually convenient time to meet.
If three or more teachers will be involved in the conference you are requesting, please contact your child's school counselor to arrange a meeting time.

In support of this goal, FCPS provides weCare@school (weCare), an emergency care information system, available to FCPS parents and guardians who have registered for their own Parent account. weCare@school helps manage emergency medical information by enabling parents to enter and update their children's medical data at their convenience.
Information on how to access FCPS 24-7 can be found at this link: FCPS 24-7:Parent View. Also helpdesk support is accessible by contacting FCPS 24-7 Learning Support Center.
