An officer steals a watch from a Jared Jewelers in Florida in what is a somewhat surprising news report. On Feb. 8, The Canada Journal reported that Officer Kevin Burgs stole a $795 watch from a store in Pembroke Pines. Burgs, a nine-year veteran on the police force, was caught by surveillance cameras after he went back to he store he had just robbed to respond to the robbery call!
"The burglary was captured on video. And, according to a report, an employee reviewing the surveillance not only saw the thieves break in, but also eventually saw Officer Burg allegedly ganking (sic) a watch after he responded to the store's call," reports The Canada Journal.
If an officer steals a watch, one would think that he would be immediately excused from his job, but while Burgs has been suspended, it's with pay and the department has chosen to wait out his trial before actually firing him, despite what was seen on the video footage.
Burgs, 36, has been charged with grand theft. Obviously if he is convicted, he will be out of a job. At this point a motive is unclear. The one watch that he stole wasn't that expensive but evidently he thought that it was worth it -- or that he could get away with it. Or both.
Watch the officer steals watch video above to see Burgs in action.

Yep, it's raunchy.
And offensive.
And worth every second.
Officer Duke has a bit of a problem: He accidentally shot a man while holding a teenager (rocker Marilyn Manson) captive, and now he's storing the body in the trunk of his car. Luckily Officer Duke (Mark Burnham) fits right in with the rest of the local police force, who really couldn't care less about solving crimes and are much more interested in committing petty theft, blackmailing colleagues, soliciting prostitutes, sexually harassing the community and pursuing careers in electronic music.
So they probably aren't going to be so helpful when it comes to dealing with that body in the trunk anyway, which means Officer Duke may not have that much of a problem after all. In the absurdist ensemble comedy Wrong Cops, from director Quentin Dupieux, the cops may have gone wrong, but their depraved behavior makes the laughs feel . . . also wrong.
Marilyn Mason's new film is a raunchy romp that will offend. So what?
Yep, it's raunchy.

text: Nov 16, 2012 11:28 'Tekken Hybrid' for hardcore fans only 'Tekken Hybrid' for hardcore fans only Langdon Herrick| Special to theadvocate.com Dec. 8, 2011; 11:45 a.m. Comments "Tekken Hybrid" is the video game equivalent of a Happy Meal. The meat is tasty, but a little old. There are too few fries. And the toy will only hold your interest for so long. Still, hardcore fans will get a lot of bang for their buck with this title, as the $39.99 price tag includes an HD remake of "Tekken Tag," a 3D-enabled CGI movie, and a preview of "Tekken Tag 2." "Tekken Tag Tournament" was one of the only good PS2 launch titles, and though the graphics have been given an HD overhaul, the visuals are pretty paltry compared to the more recent games. The lack of a story in the original "Tekken Tag" is somewhat rectified by the inclusion of "Tekken: Blood Vengeance," a movie that, if nothing else, helps explain what's goings on in the "Tekken" universe. While the film's massive fight scenes look great, especially in 3-D, the problem is that too much time is wasted on slow-paced stabs at drama that come across as just plain silly. In the end, the only parts of "Blood Vengeance" worth watching are the impressive brawls, so fast-forwarding to get to the good part comes highly recommended. "Tekken Tag" added a simple, but intuitive tag team mechanic that fans have been looking forward to for years. Basically, if one character loses all their health, you lose the round, however, the character who has been tagged out will slowly recover health. This adds some fun new wrinkles to the usual punches and kicks that make up a typical game of "Tekken." This series is famous (or infamous) for featuring long and damaging "juggles," or strings of attacks on an airborne opponent. Players not willing to memorize these combos won't last five seconds in the ring with a veteran. While "Tekken Tag's" gameplay has aged well, the lack of so many of the interesting newer characters is hard to ignore. Fans looking to play as British boxer Steve Fox, socialite Lili or Middle Eastern shaman Zafina will instead have to settle for a cast that boasts much less diversity. Sure, "Tekken Tag" had the largest roster for the series at the time, but half of the characters are pretty much clones of the other half. While there are differences between P. Jack and Jack 2 and Yoshimitsu and Kunimitsu, the roster just isn't as strong as the recent "Tekken" games. The lack of customization options to spice up your character's appearance is also sorely missed. The most grievous exclusion is that of online play. Yeah, yeah, I know it wasn't in the original "Tekken Tag," but it must be noted that budget-conscious gamers can pick up a copy of "Tekken 6" for a lower price than "Hybrid," and it comes with customizable characters and online play as well as a story mode. If you've been thinking about trying the "Tekken" series, I would recommend starting with that one instead. Some juicy extras, like a demo for the upcoming "Tekken Tag 2" and a shockingly fun bowling mini-game, sweeten the deal. The demo features only four characters, but serves as a tantalizing sneak peek at what is shaping up to be the best game in the series. The bowling mini-game is the gold standard by which all mini-games should be judged. It's silly, strategic, and more addictive than you would think. For instance, larger characters, such as Kuma the grizzly bear, can throw the ball harder, but have less control, so you'll have to pick your characters accordingly. As a PS2 launch title, no amount of "HD-izing" could make "Tekken Tag" look shiny and new, but it's a respectable effort. The game runs smoothly and still sounds as good as it did back in the day. Also, the penultimate stage of the game, an Aztec ruin replete with fire-breathing statues, features some of the best video game music ever recorded. "Tekken Hybrid" may seem like a good value at $39.99. After all, it comes with a Blu-ray movie and an HD remake of a classic game. The fact that the movie is largely a waste of time and used copies of the original "Tekken Tag" can be bought for under a dollar on the Internet means I can't highly recommend this game. Unless you just can't wait for "Tekken Tag 2," this is one bundle that only the most hardcore fans will appreciate. Get The Advocate in your inbox Subscribe

NASA Astronauts Mike Fincke and Terry Virts recently suited up for a voyage in "space" without ever leaving Earth. In fact, their most recent space expedition was in Hollywood.
Instead of a countdown, their launch began on "lights, camera, and action!"
While on vacation, the real-life space explorers traded in their spacesuits for make-believe future space garb as the two made a guest appearance on the series finale of the science fiction television series "Star Trek: Enterprise."
Image above: Astronaut Terry Virts, left, Actor Scott Bakula and Astronaut Mike Fincke, right, beam on the set of Star Trek's final Enterprise voyage. Credit: NASA
Scott Bakula, whose character on the show – Captain Archer – commands the starship Enterprise, had a chance to chat long-distance with Fincke, Expedition 9 flight engineer, while in orbit last year. Fincke viewed several episodes of the show while flying more than 200 miles above Earth during his stay on the Station.
Bakula also participated in an interactive feature on the Shuttle's Return to Flight.
With both feet back on the ground, Fincke and Virts were given an opportunity to perform among actors who take on their roles as space explorers on the screen. The astronauts play engineers of the 22nd century for the day, performing maintenance in an engine room aboard Enterprise NX-01.
"It was neat to see the magic of Hollywood make something cardboard and plastic look real," Fincke said. "I've spent my whole career learning switches and buttons. On the set, none of the switches or buttons does anything."
"This was my first time on a prime time TV show, and after seeing how talented the actors are, I think I will keep my day job," Virts said.
Fincke and Virts said, however, that science fiction like "Star Trek" and other tales of deep space travel captured their interest as children and influenced their careers.
"As a kid, I became interested in shows like the original Star Trek series and the first Star Trek feature movies," Virts said. "They definitely had an impact in motivating me to a career with NASA."
For decades, space has been a place of fantasy and reality. Both are tied by a common thread: the desire to explore uncharted territory.
"There's always been a link between science fiction and science fact," Fincke said. "Science fiction, in general, has inspired not just Astronauts but all humans by giving form to our dreams to explore,"
Although some science fiction may seem out of this world, fiction has at times foretold the future, including the ingenuity and drama of space exploration.
Fincke, who lived in space for six months aboard the International Space Station last year, experienced firsthand science and technology at work in space.
During the mission, his schedule was full of scientific studies, including experiments in life and material sciences. While in space, Fincke led research aimed to learn more on how humans react in space, the effects of long-term weightlessness and how to counter those effects.
Fincke and ISS Commander Gennady Padalka took part in three spacewalks to repair the Station and ready it for future construction. Fincke also photographed from space an alphabet of hurricanes that stormed Earth's oceans.
Today, the space frontier is expanding, and like the setting of "Star Trek: Enterprise," the nation's Vision for Space Exploration is at the brink of the early pioneering days of deep space exploration.
"It was interesting and fun to get a glimpse of how it's done in Hollywood, but there's nothing like the real thing," Fincke said.

Latest Live Doppler 13 Radar analysis & hi-res mode data suggest a burst of snow showers (possibly mixed with graupel/ice pellets & some rain) to move through central Indiana between now and 7pm. Any accumulation would be localized & light.
Model sounding indicate a period of freezing drizzle is possible between after 10pm-into sunrise Sunday… this could cause some icy patches on roads. I'll monitor this aspect of the forecast this evening, and have an update later.
Temps go in reverse Sunday. Starting near 32° in the morning and falling into the mid 20s by 4pm cold air advection (CAA) takes charge. Light snow will blossom in the CAA, and linger into the early afternoon. A widespread dusting is "possible", and subfreezing temps put slick roads in play Sunday evening.
Still expecting a brief January Thaw next week… though latest long-range data indicates core of the warmth arriving a day later. Low/mid 30s Monday & Tuesday, nearing 40 Wednesday & Thursday now looking WET (especially late)/raw in the upper 30s. This is followed by 50+ next Friday despite a soaking rain.
Next weekend may prove to be above norm too, but the ultimate transition back to cold "may" carve out a storm across the Ohio Valley in the Jan. 15-17 time frame (give or take).
Below is an image of the 500mb anomaly heights on January 16th from the GFS model. The blue circles indicate lower than normal heights, or an area of colder air. The red circles on the east coast would be the warmer than normal air we experience later next week.
Sandwiched in between would be a place for cyclogenesis (storm formation) to occur…as the jet configures into a trough. WAY far out, but something to monitor over the next 10 days.

Production gets under way Monday on the 23rd James Bond film, now officially called Skyfall.
The announcement was made today at a London press conference by producers Michael G. Wilson and Barbara Broccoli, who confirmed that stars Daniel Craig and Judi Dench will be joined in the Sam Mendes-directed movie by Javier Bardem and Ralph Fiennes, as well as Naomie Harris, Berenice Marlohe, Albert Finney and Ben Whishaw.
In Skyfall, written by Neal Purvis, Robert Wade and John Logan, "Bond's loyalty to M is tested as her past comes back to haunt her. As MI6 comes under attack, 007 must track down and destroy the threat, no matter how personal the cost."
The film is set to open in the U.K. and Ireland on Oct. 26, 2012, coinciding with the 50th anniversary of Dr. No, which launched the Bond franchise. Skyfall will open Nov. 9, 2012, in North America.
For those keeping track at home, this is Dench's seventh Bond film and Craig's third, and the second time the actor's worked with Mendes (the first was in the 2002 crime drama Road to Perdition).
"We're so delighted to have Sam Mendes direct Skyfall and be working once again with Daniel Craig," Wilson and Broccoli said in a joint statement. "We've a great script, an extraordinary cast and an incredibly talented creative team for this latest James Bond adventure."
Skyfall will be distributed by Sony Pictures, which signed on in April as co-financier, rescuing a movie that had been delayed by MGM's well-publicized financial woes. By the time Skyfall opens in October 2012, it will have been four years since the release of Quantum of Solace.
Skyfall doesn't exactly leap out at you as being a Bond title, or it is just me the cast sounds really good and that script excerpt sounds like it could be good. Plus Daniel Craig & Judi Dench being back is great & Sam Mendes is a good director, its just the name thats not good enough for a bond movie, After Moonraker The Man with The Golden Gun Lcence to Kill Quantum of Solace ect.. it just seems a little flat.
Well this is a pretty awesome supporting cast! Bardem, Finney, Whishaw, Fiennes. I hope they all get some decent screen time. I'm gathering Fiennes and Bardem will be the villains? Sounds good to me.
More like Casino Royale, less like Quantum of Solace.
Wasn't it supposed to be based off the new Bond book called "Carte Blanche"by Jeffery Deaver?
I'd like to know why they made the last two Bond films darker and grittier. I don't so much mind that, but, a little humor as what was featured in the original earlier films through to Roger Moore would be nice again. And although "Q" (Desmond Llewlyn) is dead; he did have a successor, so get that part of the filming back into the series.

If you know me, then you know that I love the Borderlands series made by Gearbox Software. And if you love Borderlands, I know that you love loot as much as I do. A modern day dungeon crawler that replaces axes and swords for guns and more guns, Borderlands literally has millions of guns that can be created in the game. Looting becomes a lifestyle, and with this new Loot the World app, you can bring that looting mentality to the real world too. (more…)

Borderlands 2 And Demolition Inc. Shown Off On Tegra 3, Coming To A Tablet Near You
You guys know my stance on seeing console games coming to mobile devices, but this information today has me at least a little excited. Borderlands, one of my favorite games ever, had its sequel announced as coming to Tegra 3 devices recently. The makers of the game, Gearbox and NVIDIA invited many people to PDXLAN 19 and many were expecting to see a next-gen GPU and most came away disappointed when all they were shown was two games. I'm obviously not one of those that was disappointed. (more…)

Ajax Expertise and Efficiency
Posted by: admin in HTML, CSS, Javascript, PHP on Aug 21, 2009
Tagged in: AJAX
The development of an Ajax based application is always driven by the need to ease data processing. As an online application, it should have the ability to emulate or at least come close to basic functions found in desktops. This will give users a chance to do their data processing online without requiring any downloads or client for an application.
User Experience is King with a Cost
You may have already noticed but everything noted there is all about efficiency and users experience. In the development of an application, developers usually think about the user's experience when they encounter the application for the first time. This thinking is actually acceptable since after all, the only way the application will prove is usability is through its users.
But focusing on user's experience might shadow an important factor that could help developers move further. Users experience could be a good thing but letting them enjoy an application without proving any improvement on the skills of the developer will not help in the developer's skills improvement.
Display of Expertise
While developers should focus on users, it's also important to slowly improve their expertise in Ajax and JavaScript based application. The current development practices are already impressive but ask any developer and they can assure you that they can still squeeze the programming language even further.
But showing what JavaScript could do does not necessarily mean improvement of user experience. Because there is just a small window that allows improvement, the people who are only able to provide additional functions are those who are already leaders in the field.
The Boom and Bane of Frameworks
The best example of user's experience overtaking the need of further development is in the frameworks. Developers who use frameworks can easily churn out JavaScript and Ajax based applications even though they have little to no experience and knowledge of JavaScript and Ajax. But the end result of the application could still be impressive. When users see a highly interactive application, it doesn't really matter if the application was used with frameworks. In fact, it doesn't even matter if JavaScript was used.
Ultimately, Need Drives Everything
This might look like a bleak reality for JavaScript developers but it's not the end of improvement yet. There are still users and developers who ask for more and push for further development. There is always something that needs to be filled by JavaScript and through patience and carefully studying, that need could be filled.

"Goodbye Geist" is a psychological thriller by Ryo Hanada. Yuki is an ordinary high school student. Lately, she is sexually assaulted on the train she takes to school. She also notices a young man named Matsubara recording something on his cell phone. When she talks with her friends about it, they bring up a string of animal killings that appear to be copycat crimes based on Spirit, an animal killer who stalked the school seven years ago Can Yuki get to the bottom of the mystery?
The main problem with this manga is that the plot threads never quite connect in a satficatory manner. This is a huge shame as what is there is pretty interesting and has a nice psychological edge. It's nice to know that Matsubara is actually a pretty good guy despite his awkwardness. His developing relationship with Yuki is quite sweet. Honolulu manga fans may find this an uneven, yet interesting story.

So much for suspense. I've had this album named for over a year now and I'm still not totally sure what I was waiting for. I guess i can celebrate finishing the first song by making this announcement. (it's only so I can make myself feel better about waiting to tell you for this long.)
I'm thinking about only pressing "Wish Upon a Blackstar" on cassette and 8-track – ya know, the vintage feel. Even if I don't, at least we can all visualize what the cassette would look like. (Go make your own cassette for your next album here.)
I will have more details on how I'll be releasing Wish Upon a Blackstar in the next week or so. Remember that I'll be finally disclosing details about the remix I'm working on this Wednesday, so come back and hang out. (If you look at the bottom of your browser you should see a little "Google Friend Connect" bar. You can use your aim, google login or Open ID etc to create a user account here. Do it!!! Do it now!!!!)
I apologize for all those commenting on the time zone difference. I will always try to post earlier when there is something bigger to announce if I can.
Well, I feel much better getting the album title off my chest and onto yours. Catch up with you guys soon.

Reviews for Italian Orzo Salad
"I used pepper jack instead of the feta and sliced almonds instead of the pine nuts. Delicious! Make sure you stir the orzo often while boiling or it will stick to the pan and it needs all the liquid."
"This was really, really good! May leave out the cucumbers next time because they just don't seem to hold up too well in pasta salads. This makes a ton so it's great to bring for a potluck or party. Can't wait to have some of the leftovers for lunch today!"
"Easy to make, tastes delicious. This has become the dish that people request I bring to pot lucks. I really like that the dressing is one that can safely be out on a buffet table. Addendum to previous review: I have made this as a quinoa salad when I have gluten intolerant guests. Now I have gluten free people asking me for the recipe."
"I made this recipe for my son's birthday party last year and had so many requests for it, I included it in the thank you notes!It is really tasty!"
"Terrific! I love the combination of fresh spinach and basil. The dressing is really tasty too. I can only find feta cheese in 4-oz packages, so I made up the difference with cubed mozzarella cheese...yummy!"

I loved wearing this beautiful, flattering lace dress on my wedding day.
The label size is 14, but it was altered down to about size 6:
26″ waist
35″ hips
Professionally cleaned.
- Alterations: Professional alterations were made to bring this dress down from a size 14 to a size 6. The day before my wedding when I tried the dress on again, I realized I had lost more weight. I had to sew up the lining myself a cm or two in the waist to make it a bit tighter so it would still sit at the right height against my bust. So there are visible stitches on the inside of the dress - lining only - where I performed the emergency sewing job. The lace is very beautiful and delicate, so I was super-careful not the touch the dress part - only the lining was tightened on the inside, so the lace dress hangs exactly the same as it did before (like the pictures!).
- Preservation Method: Professionally drycleaned. Stored in a heavy plastic zippered bag, hanging in a closet.
- Terms of Sale: Returns Accepted
- Original Owner: Yes
- Has Original Receipt:
- Location: Toronto, ON
- Will Ship to: Pickup Only
- Payment Methods Accepted: Other

Longtime Atlanta Braves pitchers Greg Maddux and Tom Glavine were both voted into the Baseball Hall of Fame today, easily surpassing the 75% threshold required for admittance into the Hall.
They will join their longtime manager, Bobby Cox, who was voted into the Hall in December by the Veterans Committee after a 29-year managing career.
Maddux, who came to the Braves before the 1993 season, received a voting percentage of 97.2%, the eighth highest of all time. Maddux posted a record of 355-227 with a 3.16 ERA over his career, and won a record four consecutive Cy Young awards from 1992 to 1995. He appeared in eight All-Star Games, won 18 Gold Gloves, and won 13 games in 20 consecutive seasons. With the Braves, he posted a 194-88, including a spectacular 1195 season in which he went 19-2 with a 1.63 ERA. Known for his pinpoint control, Maddux had a WHIP (walk and hits per innings pitched) under 1.1 in nine of his eleven Atlanta seasons and never allowed more than 52 walks in any of his eleven Atlanta seasons.
Glavine finished with a 305-203 record, becoming . He spent his first sixteen seasons with Atlanta, before leaving to pitch for the Mets from 2003-2007. He returned to Atlanta for a final season in 2008. Glavine was a 10-time All-Star and won two Cy Young awards, and helped lead the Braves' renaissance in their 1991 "worst-to-first" season and won a World Series MVP award during the Braves' 1995 World Series title season. Glavine was elected with 91.9 percent of the vote.
A third player, Frank Thomas, was also elected to the Hall. Thomas spent most of his career with the White Sox, coming up to the majors in 1990, and hit .301 with 521 home runs and 1,704 RBI over his career, winning the MVP award in 1993 and the strike-shortened 1994 season.
Other selections from the Veterans Committee, who will also be inducted into the Hall in August, are managers Tony LaRussa and Joe Torre. Torre also has Braves ties, playing for the club in Milwaukee and Atlanta from 1960-1968 and managing the club from 1982-1984.
The Hall of Fame induction ceremony will take place in Cooperstown, NY on July 26, 2014.

What You Can DO: A Follow-up Post
Copied from oureyesopened.org . This post was written as a follow-up to Tesney Davis' recent post.
I finished a book back in October called Love Does by Bob Goff. In a nutshell, it talks about love being an action word. You can't love others without DOING. So after reading my last post about Russian adoptions, many of you who believe love is an action word have asked what you can DO to help. I've compiled a list of things you can do to help and add your voice those who support U.S. adoptions continuing in Russia. If you do everything listed below, it will take a total of about thirty minutes. Some of them take a matter of seconds, some take a few minutes and the cost of a stamp. My point is, most of these things are fast, easy, and inexpensive. Please, I'm begging you, on behalf of Kirill and the 700,000 children who reside in orphanages in Russia, love actively and DO these things.
1. Contact your Representatives and Senators. You can find your elected officials on this website:
When you talk with someone in their office please say something to this effect:
"Hello, my name is _____ and I live in _____. I am calling on behalf of my (friends or family members…if you don't know of anyone, you may use the name Jenni and Josh Johnston, who are dear friends of mine…you can see their interview with CNN HERE) who are in the process of adoption from Russia. They have already met their child and signed a letter of intent to adopt her. I ask that Congressman or Senator ______ contact Secretary of State Clinton and other members of the State Department to talk to them about […]

NetBeans Plugin Competition
By Geertjan-Oracle on Jan 08, 2008
I looked through that page and tried to understand the suggestions they've got there for various types of NetBeans plugins you can create that would be helpful to people using Dapper. Here's my understanding of their list, together with some ideas of my own, broken down into 3 different kinds of plugins you could create (or you could combine all of these into one cool plugin) to fulfil Dapper's competition requirements:
- Dapper search/browse plugin. When you click this link, you will have XML in your browser, as the search results for "netbeans" to the Dapper service:
Now replace "netbeans" in the string above, with something else, like "obama", and you'll get different results. You could create a plugin that provides a user interface (maybe a toolbar, with search results to the Output window or Navigator, or both, or icons appearing in the component palette, for example) that generates a link such as the above and parses the results.
- Dapper stub generator. Use the Code Snippet Module Tutorial (and possibly the Editor Component Palette Module Tutorial) to add code snippets to the palette. When the user drags and drops these onto a JSP page (or some other document), relevant XML code would be generated into the editor, retrieved from Dapper. By the way, the guideline that tells you to provide an "interface to allow you to configure the stub code before it gets generated", on the NetBeans Plugin for Dapper page, is covered in the Adding a Customizer section in the Code Snippet Module Tutorial. One thing you might want to look at is how the Google web services, StrikeIron web services, and Yahoo web services are integrated in the IDE (in the Palette and the Services window), so that you end up with a user experience that seamlessly integrates with the user experience of other vendors.
- Dapper widget designer. If you're even more adventurous, you might want to use the Visual Library API to let the user design their own widgets graphically. You'd probably provide a palette, something similar to Matisse, but much simpler, and the user would be able to drag and drop items onto a Visual Library scene. At the end, the source view would contain the tags that define the widget that you've created. In a sense, if you take on this task, you're integrating parts of Dapper itself into the IDE. As far as possible, try and leverage as much as possible from Dapper, i.e., use Dapper to generate the tags and so on. See also Dapper's Dapp Factory for information related to this.
By the way, the Planet NetBeans widget in the left sidebar of this blog is something I created in a very few clicks via the Dapper site. I'm not completely happy with it (doesn't resize when the browser resizes), but it's quite fun. Dapper seems like a fun deal to me. If you click the "Add to your site" link below the widget, you'll be able to get the tags that define the widget, so that you can add those tags (and thereby reuse the widget) on your own site. (If you're blocking popups, you won't be able to open links from the widget.)
So, good luck, if you're interested in working on some/all of the plugins listed above! Let me know if I can help in any way, also if you're looking for someone to partner with (i.e., maybe you don't want to participate on your own) and I will try and find someone to work with you.

OKEECHOBEE—Four men who were allegedly scamming Polk County homeowners by offering to do paving work have been arrested on over 70 felony counts each.
The four men are accused of being traveling scam artists, or gypsies, and were initially arrested Feb. 7 by detectives with the Polk County Sheriff's Office (PCSO). Each man was charged with the felonies of burglary, grand theft, obtaining property by fraud, exploitation of the elderly, worker's compensation fraud, home solicitation without a permit and theft.
They were being held in the Polk County Jail in Bartow on bonds ranging from $35,000 to $40,000.
But because of media attention and the information being put out on a social networking site, PCSO Public Information Officer Carrie Eleazar said 10 more victims have come forward. Now, each man is looking at an additional 70 felony charges each.
They were expected to go before a Polk County judge Tuesday afternoon, Feb. 12, for their first appearance hearing.
Whether or not they will receive a bond will be determined at that hearing.
On Feb. 3 the Okeechobee News published a warning to be wary of these travelling scam artists who offer to do inexpensive paving, roofing work or other types of jobs around your home.
"It's that time of year. They always seem to hit when the Northerners are here," said Major Noel Stephen of the Okeechobee County Sheriff's Office (OCSO).
And like the aforementioned cases in the Auburndale area of Polk County, Maj. Stephen said these scammers prefer to operate in the smaller inland counties.
"It's my personal opinion they take advantage of our Southern hospitality and kindness. Rural communities are more receptive to strangers knocking on the door," he explained.
Maj. Stephen went on to explain that these people are usually well dressed, sound very legitimate and are very professional in their approach and the equipment they use.
"They'll walk the person through everything, and go through a good song and dance about what they can do. It's very believable to the resident," added the major.
According to Ms. Eleazar, those arrested were: Jim Stevens, 35, Hillsborough, N.C.; Richard Pierce, 44, Hendersonville, Tenn.; Chad Lee, Sr., 40, Plainfield, Ill.; and Chad Lee, Jr., 19, Madison, Tenn.
Ms. Eleazar went on to say that PCSO investigators also seized approximately $140,000 in equipment that included: a 2006 International dump truck pulling a 1995 trailer that was carrying a Stone DD3100 roller; a GEHL paver; a Case SR 175 Bobcat; and, a 2008 GMC dump truck.
"Both dump trucks and all the commercial equipment involved were found to be lien free and were seized under the Florida Forfeiture Act," said Ms. Eleazar. "We have already determined the stuff was paid for and have begun forfeiture procedures on it. (It's) likely we will auction them off, because at this time we really don't see a need for any of it."
And even though the scammers look and act professional and use fairly new equipment, there are some telltale signs that give them away.
According to PCSO arrest reports the trucks and trailers had different license plates that included North Carolina, Tennessee and Illinois; the Department of Transportation numbers on the sides of the vehicles were different; and, the suspects use multiple fictitious company names. Those bogus company names included Orange Paving, Ace Paving, Power Blacktop Paving and Richard's Paving.
None of those arrested had valid Florida driver's licenses, added the arrest reports.
Maj. Stephen also said that even though these scammers like to target smaller inland communities, they normally don't stay in the town they're 'working.'
"I've found they're staying in Fort Pierce when they're doing their scamming in Okeechobee. They normally won't stay in a jurisdiction where they're scamming," he said.
To protect yourself from these gypsy scammers, always be cautious of those coming to your door and offering to do work around your home "on the cheap."
"(And) A lot of times people don't ask if they're licensed in Okeechobee County or insured. You can always check with the building department to see if they're licensed," offered Maj. Stephen.
Citizens and homeowners should also be very wary of:
• Strangers knocking on your front door and striking up a long conversation. While you're talking to the stranger their partner is either looking over your home or breaking into your home from the back.
• Hiring strangers to work on your house. One worker will keep you talking, while another is stealing from you.
• Hiring a caregiver without carefully checking their credentials. Run a criminal background check or ask agencies to provide you with a copy of the actual report.
• A caregiver who enters into an inappropriate relationship with an elderly loved one.
• A caregiver who tries to isolate your loved one and makes it difficult or impossible to speak to your loved one on the telephone.
• Fortune-telling scams where you or a loved one are told that evil is close but it can be warded off with help from the gypsy.
• Strangers either knocking on your door at home or approaching you in a parking lot about needing help because they are having car trouble.
The major also said homeowners should simply beware and ask questions. He said if there are any concerns, a legitimate contractor will appreciate you checking their license.
To reach the Okeechobee County Building Department call 863-763-5548. To contact the Okeechobee County Sheriff's Office, call 863-763-3117.

Why are you getting all excited?
What is your problem?
If God is real, then why have I never encountered a claim for His existence that holds water?
And if he would prefer to remain hidden (which, if He exists, appears to be the case), then why does it matter whether or not I think He exists?
What is your problem?
Why all the exclamation points?
I assume, then, that you'll answer all the above. ALL of them.

The UK Sun has a new article online featuring quotes from Kevin Nash. Below are the highlights:
The Undertaker vs. Triple H at Wrestlemania XXVIII:
"It's going to be hard for them to follow last year, because the match they had was so epic.
"By adding the cell and by adding Shawn Michaels, they've got some more things to use as far as from a psychology and moving parts standpoint.
"It changes the psychology of the match. I'm really looking forward to seeing that what they do.
"I know that Mark's beat up, like we all are. I know Paul's beat up. His job is behind the scenes and in the office. When he does wrestle it's an added thing.
"It's added responsibility and I think that puts a ton of pressure on him, because he is so involved in so many day-to-day decisions that are made within the WWE.
"For something like WrestleMania it's easy for either one of those guys, the calibre of performer that they are, to be able to put one out of their hat.
"Mark hasn't worked since last Mania, so I think he's just a WrestleMania-type guy. Once he's gone it's the end of that era. I think you try to keep him part of it to some degree.
"But if it is 'one and done', he's through after this WrestleMania and he was to get beaten, then I'm sure he'd be inducted into the Hall of Fame and you go from there.
"But I personally don't think it will be the last time we see either one of those guys."
Time in WWE:
"The return at the Royal Rumble was fantastic. It was something I won't forget.
"I'd still like to do something with CM Punk in the future. I think we've got a chapter that's still open. Originally it was going to be me and Punk, but it turned out to be me and Hunter.
"I knew that I wasn't allowed to go off the script in those promos. I think he had a little more leeway than I did.
"I came in as a heel. I didn't ask the people to look at me in any way as a tweener. My job was to come in and be a heel. I think I did my job well.
"I didn't look for any kind of admiration from the fans. My job wasn't to be funny, it was to be a nemesis, and that's what I did.
"I've had my run. At this point if I can do something to assist somebody to bring them up a rung on the ladder and make the perception that they are a bigger star than they are or give them a little bit of a bump to make sure they become a bigger star, that's my job now.
"My job's not to be a world champion. I can't go out there and work 300 days a year, and if you can't work 300 days a year you can't be in that spot.
"I'm a realist. I know my days are numbered in this business, but I think I'll always be a part of it. There's nothing that defines me more than professional wrestling. I still love it."
Would he return to TNA?:
"I'm not saying I wouldn't go back. It's only 50 miles from my house!
"If they had something for me and they needed me, I might go back and do it. Right now I'm starting to get bored!"

The Iliad
by Homer
The Iliad Book 2 Summary
- While all the other gods and mortals are sleeping, Zeus is lying awake at night. He is wondering how he can help Achilleus and hurt the Achaians.
- Finally, he decides to send a dream to Agamemnon. The dream, which takes the shape of Nestor, explains that Hera has brought all the other gods on board, that the city will soon be captured, and that the Achaians must attack immediately, in full force.
- "Hot diggity!" Agamemnon says (yes, Agamemnon is a chump) the next morning, "That's better than black coffee." He immediately finds his generals and repeats the dream's message word-for-word. He says that they should attack Troy that day, but, first, they should make a test of the soldiers' loyalty. Agamemnon will tell the men they can go home; then the generals will hold them back.
- Nestor agrees with this plan, and praises Agamemnon's ingenuity. The generals summon the troops, who gather to receive their instructions.
- Agamemnon stands in front of the troops, holding his royal scepter. We get a time-out from the main story while Homer explains the origins of the scepter.
- Once that's over with, Agamemnon tells the soldiers that Zeus has commanded them all to go home. The soldiers all start running for their ships.
- The soldiers are all showing a bit too much enthusiasm. At least that's what Hera thinks, so she sends Athene down to put a stop to it.
- Okay, so if you haven't noticed yet, Hera really has it in for the Trojans. In case you've been wondering why this is, you're in luck. It is now time for us to interrupt our regular programming to bring you: The Backstory's Backstory.
- Many years before the Trojan War began, Zeus developed a crush on the sea-goddess Thetis. (Remember her? If not, check out our summary of Book 1.) Usually the king of the gods wouldn't think twice about making his move, except this time something held him back: he learned of a prophecy that said she would bear a child more powerful than its father.
- Zeus didn't like the sound of that one bit. In fact, he disliked it so much that he immediately arranged for Thetis to be married off to someone much, much weaker than himself—the mortal prince Peleus.
- (Okay, we know one of you mathematicians is going to point out that the child of Thetis and a mortal could still end up being more powerful than his father and Zeus. Maybe it's best to think of Zeus as trying to improve his chances.)
- When the day of Peleus and Thetis's wedding arrived, all the gods were invited, except for Eris, the goddess of Hate (sometimes translated as "Strife"). But do you really think the goddess of Hate isn't going to show up uninvited?
- Of course she crashed the party. Knowing she had to make her mark before being thrown out by security, Hate threw a golden apple into the midst of the crowd. Inscribed on the apple were the words "For The Most Beautiful." To nobody's surprise, the three most powerful goddesses—Hera, Athene, and Aphrodite—all claimed the apple for themselves.
- Zeus knew better than to pass judgment in such a delicate matter. Instead, he sent the goddesses to the area around Troy. There, they would let the judge be the Trojan prince Paris—Paris who, even before he got into the wife-stealing business, was known to have a keen eye for the ladies.
- The problem with Olympian Idol is that there can only be one winner. Paris gave the apple to Aphrodite, the goddess of love, who had promised to reward him with the most beautiful woman in the world if he picked her.
- The problem with Aphrodite's promise was that the most beautiful woman in the world, Helen, was already married to king Menelaos. When Aphrodite helped Paris sail to Sparta, capture Helen, and take her back to Troy—well, we already know how that turned out.
- The problem with there only being one winner was that, in this case, the two losers were extremely powerful goddesses. Ever since Paris's judgment, Hera and Athene have been nursing a serious grudge against Paris and all other Trojans.
- What about Peleus and Thetis, whose wedding started it all? Well, the child of their union was none other than Achilleus. But since he's currently out of commission, let's not worry about him for the moment.
- This brings us to the end of The Backstory's Backstory—and right into the action, where Athene has been sent by Hera to stop the Achaians from sailing back home.
- First Athene approaches Odysseus, her favorite among the Achaian warriors, and tells him to intervene.
- Odysseus, who had been hanging back, and had not even touched his own ship, is only too happy to oblige. First he borrows Agamemnon's scepter, as a sign of authority. Then he goes among the soldiers; whenever he sees a soldier of high rank, he asks him politely not to run away. Whenever he sees a soldier of lower rank, he gives him the same message—by hitting him with the scepter!
- Eventually, the Achaians come back to the assembly hall. Just when things are starting to settle down, though, up stands Thersites, the ugliest and most cowardly of the Achaians. Thersites says that they should all sail home, that Agamemnon is a big jerk, and that Achilleus could have mopped the floor with him if he'd wanted to.
- Odysseus intervenes, tells Thersites off, and then beats him up with Agamemnon's scepter. The other soldiers cheer.
- Now is the moment for Odysseus to follow this up with an inspiring speech. He reminds them of something that happened nine years earlier.
- When the Achaians were making their way to Troy, they stopped for a while at the city of Aulis. One day, while making sacrifices, they saw a snake crawl out from under the altar. It slithered up a tree and promptly devoured a nest of eight sparrow hatchlings, plus the mother to boot.
- Worried that this might be a bad omen, the Achaians asked the soothsayer Kalchas to interpret it for them. Kalchas explained that the nine sparrows the snake swallowed represented the nine years the Achaians would have to spend besieging Troy. The soothsayer then said that they would capture the city in the tenth year.
- When Odysseus has finished his story, Nestor steps forward and calls for less gabbing and more stabbing. Being Nestor, he launches into a rambling speech complaining about those who only think for themselves and don't help the group effort (Achilleus, hint-hint?).
- Finally he gets to the point: Agamemnon should arrange his soldiers in order of city of origin. That way, if they're unsuccessful in the battle, he'll be able to tell if the will of the gods is to blame, or just some incompetent commander.
- Agamemnon thinks this is a great idea. He orders the soldiers to get all their equipment ready and have a hearty meal, so they'll all be ready for a long day of fighting.
- While the soldiers eat breakfast, Agamemnon and the other generals make a sacrifice. Agamemnon prays to Zeus for success in battle, but Homer tells us that Zeus will not fulfill his request.
- When everyone has eaten, Nestor tells Agamemnon to get everyone ready. Agamemnon agrees, the heralds announce the order, and the men begin to assemble.
- What follows next is known as the Catalogue of Ships. Basically, it's a list of all the different contingents that make up the Achaian army, where they come from, who commands them, how many ships they have, and any other relevant background info. There are so many different names and numbers here that the poet actually has to call on the Muses again, just to help him remember everything.
- Even though the Catalogue of Ships can make even hardcore Homer fans feel their eyes glaze over, it isn't without its highlights.
- For example, keep an eye out for the tribe of the Abantes from Euboea, whom Homer describes as rocking the mullet haircut.
- Later on in the Catalogue, Homer tells us about the Myrmidons—the tribe that Achilleus leads—and how they are not taking part in the preparations, in solidarity with their leader. We are told that, even if Achilleus isn't fighting now, the day is coming when he will again.
- After the Catalogue of Ships comes the Catalogue of Chariots. We think you get the idea what this is all about. Once again, pay attention to the description of the Myrmidons, the only ones who are just training, not getting ready to fight.
- While the Achaians are getting ready, Zeus sends Iris, the messenger of the gods, to warn the Trojans. Taking the shape of Polites, the son of the Trojan king Priam, Iris finds the Trojan elders in a meeting.
- After she passes along Zeus's message, Hektor, the greatest Trojan warrior, declares the meeting adjourned.
- The Trojans start assembling for battle on a ridge in front of Troy. Because Homer never misses an opportunity for some good cataloguing, he rounds out the book with a list of the Trojan forces and their allies.

"There was a point when we started praying for people to die," Libby Phelps Alvarez, the granddaughter of the man who founded the church, told NBC's "Today" in an interview that aired Wednesday.

Julian Assange, embattled WikiLeaks founder and international man of mystery, took a moment Friday to check in with Matt Lauer on "Today" and dispense such enigmatic gems as this description of his recent legal battle: "It is not the beginning of the end; rather, it is merely the end of the beginning."
So, in his hype-o-matic interview with George W. Bush, "Today Show" talker Matt Lauer gets a glimpse of the former president's post-White House lifestyle. Hey, he has an iPad! All the better for reading the word of the Lord and Rupert Murdoch—not necessarily in that order.
It's definitely "do as I say, not as I do" material, but Bristol Palin showed up on NBC's "Today" show Wednesday morning with dad Todd and baby Tripp in an effort to prevent other teenagers from becoming parents before they're ready. Matt Lauer snuck in a question about babydaddy Levi Johnston, but Bristol totally wasn't having it.
Mary Tillman made a sharp and moving appearance Tuesday morning on the "Today" show to talk about her new book, "Boots on the Ground by Dusk: My Tribute to Pat Tillman," about the friendly-fire death of her son, Pat, and the U.S. military's subsequent cover-up in 2004.
Arnold Schwarzenegger has had enough of Rush Limbaugh, who refers to the California governor as a "closet liberal." On Tuesday's "Today Show," Arnold fired back, saying "Limbaugh is irrelevant." That was apparently too much for Rush, who responded on own show by saying Arnold has clearly "sold out."

It was announced today that Nicole Scherzinger and Paula Abdul were given the heave-ho from The X-Factor, and quite frankly, we couldn't have cared less. We were more bummed about less screen time for Steve Jones. Adbul will be fine, but Scherzinger always manages to land just shy of the level of stardom she seeks. Case in point, her solo career. What solo career, you ask? Exactly.
As we bid farewell to Scherzinger (shoulda kept Cheryl Cole), we look back fondly on our first meeting via WB's Pop Stars.

On this day in history, May 6, 1933, President Franklin Roosevelt (FDR) created the Work Progress Administration, (WPA). The program was created during the height of the Great Depression as part of the Emergency Relief Appropriations Act, which had been signed into law by Roosevelt the previous month. Roosevelt did not believe in relief programs that simply provided funds to recipients who were healthy enough to work and so he created the WPA as a means of creating work for those who were on relief, according to History.com on this day.
The workers on the WPA program built hospitals, schools, airports, highways and even playgrounds. On all of the construction projects on which they worked, the WPA workers implanted an embossed circular insignia that read WPA followed by the year in which the work was completed. Those insignias still can be found to this day on sidewalks, libraries, hospitals, highways, and schools and serve as a permanent testimony to Roosevelt's earnest and sincere commitment to his principles of providing meaningful, substantive work for workers on relief.
The WPA also provided work for actors, writers, artists and other creative people and sponsored federally funded live performances, murals, art projects and literary productions. In an effort to protect private industry, Roosevelt put wage and price controls on federally sponsored performances, products and services.
Because of Republican opposition to Roosevelt's New Deal (of which the WPA was an integral part) and because of the approaching American involvement in World War II, much of the funding for the WPA was curtailed. By 1940 the program had been decimated almost entirely. America's involvement in World War II started a year later on December 7, 1941, when Japan bombed Pearl Harbor.
Franklin Roosevelt was the thirty-second President of the United States, and the only President ever to be elected to four terms of office. He defeated incumbent President Herbert Hoover who had promised "A chicken in every pot and two cars in every garage." But the Great Depression had mitigated Hoover's promise, thus paving the way for Roosevelt's election to the Presidency.
Roosevelt died on April 12, 1945 after having created the WPA, declared December 7, 1941 "A day that shall live in infamy," and served as a leading figure among the allies during World War II. During his Presidency, Roosevelt was to have three Vice-Presidents, the latest of which, Harry S. Truman, had only been Vice-President for one month upon succeeding Roosevelt when he died.

So, as always, I end on a BATTLE CRY!!!
