30 charges issued on teen accused in vehicle break-ins
Published: Friday, March 22, 2013 at 3:42 p.m.
Last Modified: Friday, March 22, 2013 at 3:42 p.m.
A 16-year-old from Thomasville is facing 30 criminal charges after a Thomasville Police Department detective alleges he was involved in a rash of vehicle break-ins since early February.
Oscar Alvarez, of 501 Albertson Road, Lot 35, was placed in the Davidson County Detention Center under a $100,000 secured bond Thursday. He has been charged with 11 counts of felony breaking and entering into a motor vehicle, possession of drug paraphernalia, carrying a concealed weapon, three counts of felony breaking and entering, two counts of felony larceny after breaking and entering, two counts of felony larceny of a firearm, one count of felony safecracking and nine counts of misdemeanor larceny.
Arrest warrants state Alvarez's first offense occurred Feb. 6 and last one March 12.
TPD Detective Chet Jarrell alleges the vehicle break-ins occurred in the Albertson Road and Fisher Ferry Road areas. Alvarez also is accused of breaking into a residence on Albertson Road and another residence on Lowery Drive, as well as an outbuilding on Bobo Drive. Items reported stolen from those structures included firearms, cell phones, a camera, iPod, video game systems, laptop and DVD player. Jarrell alleges Alvarez made entry into a safe at the residence on Albertson Road.
Jarrell estimated about $4,000 in property was reported stolen from the break-ins, some of which has been recovered. He said electronics, including GPS units, were taken from motor vehicles, which were most commonly unlocked.
Through the investigation Jarrell developed Alvarez as a suspect. The detective said he is continuing his investigation into the rash of break-ins.
Jarrell reminds residents to lock their doors and secure their valuables.
Anyone with information can contact Jarrell at 475-4269.

Zimmermann, Nats blank Braves
ATLANTA — Jordan Zimmermann turned in another dominant performance with two-hit ball over eight innings, Ian Desmond hit a two-run homer in the fourth and the Washington Nationals finally beat the Atlanta Braves, 2-0 Wednesday night.
The Braves had won five in a row this season over their NL East rival and nine straight dating back to last season.
Zimmermann (5-1) made sure that streak ended with another dominating performance, snapping a three-game losing streak that had knocked the Nationals under .500.
Atlanta starter Paul Maholm (3-3) nearly matched Zimmermann. He allowed only three hits in eight innings, retiring the last 13 batters he faced.
But Desmond provided all the runs that Washington needed, homering to left-center on a 1-1 pitch in the fourth after Bryce Harper led off with a walk.
MILWAUKEE — Starling Marte hit a tying two-run homer in the eighth inning, and Brandon Inge had a go-ahead RBI single to rally Pittsburgh to a victory over Milwaukee, snapping the Pirates' nine-game losing streak against the Brewers.
Pedro Alvarez added a run-scoring single to cap a four-run eighth as Pittsburgh won for the 10th time in its last 15 games and ended Milwaukee's eight-game home winning streak.
ST. LOUIS — Lance Lynn won his 10th straight decision, allowing one run and five hits in seven innings to lead the Cardinals over the Reds.
Lynn (5-0) struck out five and walked two, improving to 10-0 in 10 starts and one relief appearing since losing to Milwaukee on Sept. 7.
MIAMI — Jordany Valdespin hit a three-run, pinch-homer, and the Mets rallied Wednesday to break a six-game losing streak and avert a series sweep, beating the Marlins.
The Mets' dormant offense finally came alive after they fell behind 4-1. Valdespin put New York ahead to stay in the sixth inning with his second homer, and NL RBIs leader John Buck added a two-run double in the seventh.
CHICAGO — Scott Feldman retired 18 straight on his way to his first career complete game, and the Cubs took advantage of former No. 1 pick Andrew Cashner's wildness in a 6-2 win over the Padres.
Feldman (2-3) earned his second straight win, allowing two runs and three hits while walking one. After Chase Headley singled with two outs in the first, Feldman retired the next 18 batters.
PHOENIX — Brandon Belt hit a three-run homer in the eighth inning, and the Giants rallied against Arizona's bullpen for the third straight game, beating the Diamondbacks to complete a three-game sweep.
Belt hit a two-run single off Brad Ziegler in the opener and Pablo Sandoval hit a two-run homer off Arizona closer J.J. Putz on Tuesday.
LOS ANGELES — Troy Tulowitzki and Carlos Gonzalez each hit two-run doubles, and center fielder Dexter Fowler robbed Adrian Gonzalez of what would have been his second home run of the game, leading the Rockies to a victory over the Dodgers.

Is it true that if there is Cryptographically secure pseudorandom number generator then there is One-way function?
Mathematics Stack Exchange is a question and answer site for people studying math at any level and professionals in related fields. It's 100% free, no registration required.

Here's how it works:
- Anybody can ask a question
- Anybody can answer
- The best answers are voted up and rise to the top
If you have a really Cryptographically secure pseudorandom number generator you can use it to create a "one time pad" which you can then use to encrypt your message.
One time pad has perfect secrecy (for definition see Shannon or here lecture notes on perfect secrecy).
Your function will be a one way function since only you can invert the coded message to it's original plaintextform.
BUT: to decipher the message you'll still have to send the pad you've used throu a secure channel or encrypt it with some other cryptosystem .

When I was a little girl, my mom always found the most amazing advent calenders every year at Christmas time. They were filled with little toys or Christmas ornaments or just something little and fun - not the standard crummy chocolate in a new shape each day. Every morning I would be so excited to look behind the door for the day and see what little surprise awaited me. Needless to say, I was really excited when I heard about the Ciaté Mini Mani Month Set last month and even more excited when I managed to get one! It is essentially an advent calender filled with Ciaté nail polish minis!!! Yes, that means 24 different mini nail polishes! I have never tried Ciaté polishes before so I'm extra excited to try so many colors from a new brand, plus I don't have to worry about receiving duplicate polishes. Since I am so excited to see what color, or caviar manicure beads, each day brings, I thought I would share them with you guys too - don't worry, I will make sure you have to click on "Read More" to see the colors in case you have a Mini Mani Month too and want to keep them a surprise! Since today is December 1st, let's see what the first day holds....
It's so cute! It's a beautiful hot pink with a subtle bluish-lavender shimmer. The name of this little gem? "Cupcake Queen"! Love it! And the bottle is the cutest little thing too! I'm not sure if I will change my polish each day, but if I do, I will try to post photos of each shade on the nails too. That's it for today! I'm going to try to keep these incredibly short, sweet and to the point.

Yesterday, the Nationals finally announced the 2012 lineup for their affiliates' coaching staffs:
Manager – Tony Beasley (promoted from Harrisburg)
Pitching Coach – Greg Booker (returning)
Hitting Coach – Troy Gingrich (promoted from Harrisburg)
Manager – Matt LeCroy (promoted from Potomac)
Pitching Coach – Paul Menhart (promoted from Potomac)
Hitting Coach – Eric Fox (new hire)
Manager – Brian Rupp (new hire; managed Wilmington '09-'11)
Pitching Coach – Chris Michalak (promoted from Hagerstown)
Hitting Coach – Marlon Anderson (promoted from Hagerstown)
Manager – Brian Daubach (returning)
Pitching Coach – Franklin Bravo (promoted from Auburn)
Hitting Coach – Mark Harris (reassigned from Potomac)
Manager – Gary Cathcart (returning)
Pitching Coach – TBD
Hitting Coach – Luis Ordaz (returning)
Manager – Tripp Keister (new hire; previously coached at Wesley College)
Pitching coach – Michael Tejera (returning)
Hitting coach – Amaury Garcia (promoted from DSL)
Manager – Sandy Martinez (returning)
Pitching Coach – Pablo Frias (returning)
Hitting Coach – Jorge Mejia (new hire)
The coordinators are nearly all the same with the exception of Calvin Minasian, who replaces John Mullin as the Clubhouse and Equipment Manager. The most significant changes come at Potomac, where Brian Rupp was lured away from the Kansas City organization to become the P-Nats field boss and Mark Harris was sent to Maryland to assume the hitting-coach duties for Hagerstown. Most of the other moves are promotions from within.
As was the case last year, most of this was not a mystery, given the early news on the AA and AAA staffs last month, and a commenter in the know (Get 42 Off 1st) informing us in September of the removals of Jerry Browne (AAA hitting coach), Bobby Williams (DSL manager), and Sergio Mendes (DSL hitting coach). I'm sure we'll get some opinions as to why Harris and Anderson swapped spots, though my first inference is that they wanted to keep him and Michalak together.
5 Responses to "Nationals Announce 2012 Farm Managers, Coaches"
Randy Tomlin — is remaining with the organization, Harris said, and could return to Harrisburg. CORRECTION: Tomlin, the team's pitching coach since 2009, was offered a contract by the Nationals but elected to move on.
Not sure why that happened but I thought Tomlin was well respected?
From what I heard Tomlin decided to step away for perosnal reasons, and could come back next year
Guess this answers my question:

Yesterday Oklahoma's Republican Gov. Mary Fallin signed into a law a new round of tax increases on oil and gas companies drilling for oil and natural gas in her state. Beginning in 2015 Oklahoma will tax energy companies at a 2% rate on a given well's oil or gas production for the first three years of its operation with the tax then rising to 7%. The new law resulting from Oklahoma House Bill 2562, increases the per well production tax rate from1% for the first four years doubling it to 2% for the first three years. After the initial period, all Oklahoma wells in production are then taxed at rate of 7%. The new law also eliminated several tax rate exemptions the industry had previously enjoyed. "The new 2 percent tax rate is fair to the state and sends a clear message to energy producers worldwide: Oklahoma is the place for energy production and investment," Fallin said. "We want to be a leader in this field, not just today but for decades to come."
The new tax affects some of the biggest Oklahoma based oil and gas companies such as Chesapeake Energy, Devon Energy, and Anadarko Energy among others. Chesapeake Energy pays a drilling tax levy of just 1.5% in total in Pennsylvania whose Marcellus shale formation is one of the largest producers of natural gas in the United States. Pennsylvania's Gov. Tom Corbett has refused to support proposals for similar drilling production tax rates as found in virtually all oil and gas producing states in the United States.
Legislative support in Oklahoma along with support from Gov. Fallin came about as a result of the need in Oklahoma to raise revenue to support education funding and fund repairs to the state's roads, bridges and related infrastructure. According to the Energy Information Agency, while Oklahoma has seen gas and oil production increase from 400 million barrels of oil equivalent to 490 million barrels over the last several years, state revenue from drilling production has declined from a high of $1.2 billion in revenue in 2008 to less than $513 million in 2012/2013.
George Kaiser, who controls closely, held Kaiser-Francis Oil Company, stated "Oklahoma is in desperate financial circumstances," "A higher tax on oil-and-gas production could help the state pay for education and much needed infrastructure improvements, he said in a prepared statement. Raising the production tax "doesn't move the needle in the decision to drill."
Unlike Oklahoma's Republican Gov. Fallin, Pennsylvania Republican Gov. Tom Corbett has moved in the opposite direction. He has refused to consider levying drilling production taxes in order to meet state budget shortfalls by slashing more than $1 billion in state education funding, cutting back on social welfare services and enacting a series of state gasoline tax increases over the next 5 years to rebuild Pennsylvania's crumbling roads and bridges. Many of the state's roads and bridges are heavily used by the oil and gas industry in their drilling operations. Critics have charged the Governor with shortchanging Pennsylvanian's in the classroom, in times of social welfare needs and the at the pump while allowing out of state oil and gas drillers one of the lowest tax rates in the country. Gov. Corbett has continued to state an extraction tax on production will drive drillers out of Pennsylvania.
Under the Corbett Administration, Pennsylvania has one of the lowest drilling fee structures in the United States mainly in form of well permitting fees, estimated at less than 1.5% in total. By contrast, North Dakota which has seen its own continuing oil and gas boom from hydraulic fracking and levies a tax of 11.5% of the value of production pumped from its fields. Texas production tax rates are 4.75% on oil and up to 7.5% on natural gas. Oklahoma will now enforce a 2% tax rate for the first three years of a given well then at a 7% ongoing tax rate after that. Pennsylvania does not have a production based tax formula.
Appearing the other day in Allentown during a reelection campaign stop, Gov. Corbett was asked if he would levy a production tax on oil and gas drillers with the state facing a $569 million budget deficit. The Governor reiterated his opposition to any production taxes on drillers stating he wants to keep the state competitive with other natural gas producing states such as Texas. Regarding his adamant opposition to production taxes, the Governor stated, "I can't imagine there is anything that could be presented to me that would cause me to change that, when we know that we are on the right track,".
The issue of oil and gas production taxes has quickly become a major hotbed issue in this year's Pennsylvania's governor's race. Gov. Corbett maintains his refusal regarding consideration of drilling production taxes while his Democratic opponent, Tom Wolf, has proposed a 5% production tax on natural gas which would place Pennsylvania roughly on par with Texas in tax structures.

Absolutely THE BEST!!!
by User175356 on
After being quoted $29.95 from three other businesses for a rock chip repair, my wife found this place online and had me call them. Boy and I glad I did! $10.00! That's it...the total price for a rock chip repair. Not only was Andrew the lowest price, but he did an AWESOME job too. While he was doing the repair, he was explaining to me about the process of glass repair and why he was doing this and doing that. VERY interesting. He REALLY knows his stuff! I am totally satisfied with the job that he did on my 2014 VW cc. In fact, when I got back to work that morning, I started bragging about what a great job he did and how professional he was that one of my co-workers actually made an appointment to have HIS windshield replaced. I can't say enough about Andrew and his level of experience in repairing a cars windshield. I will continue to recommend this company to all my friends and family. You definitely won't be disappointed by having Andrew work on YOUR car! Thank you sir!
Great deal, even came late on a Friday
by User168515 on
We got a great deal from this company on replacing a windshield that couldn't pass safety inspection. He even came late on a Friday evening to replace it so we could have it taken care of before the weekend. I definitely recommend this business.
amazing deal!

I needed to replace my cracked windshield in order to pass registration this year. I am on a VERY tight budget and I was discouraged by friends and family who told me I would never find a windshield and installation under the price I was aiming for. What I found was a very nice, simple, local family owned business that quoted me $127.99 which is significantly lower than anywhere else. They were very friendly, down to earth and a pleasure to do business with. The installation took less than an hour, and I left with one charge (no added fees, AT ALL!) of $117. My stress and financial worries are gone and I have a shiny new windshield and had a great experience. I highly recommend this business. Thank you guys!!

I had my windshield replaced at the end of April '14. My experience was consistent with the other positive reviews I have seen. I highly recommend this company! They provided a quick and honest quote without the nonsense I experienced with other companies. They had the best price ( by far), and were on time to install. The installer was a great guy and enjoyed talking with he and his wife. Great experience.

Must have called around to nearly 10 places and the prices were all considerably more than what I was expecting. Funny name for a company I thought, but whatever, I will call and see. Wow! Really, they were that much lower and I thought there must be a mistake. In fact, I questioned the lady I was speaking to make sure I was getting a TOTAL price, plus moulding etc. On average, the amount we paid was $115 less. They were prompt, courteous, and the workmanship good. Windshield has been in for 3 days and we have no complaints. Suprised? You bet I am. As a general rule I do not write comments about a company where I conducted business, because there is usually nothing to write about. This particular time was the exception and I have every intention on using them again. Imagine... a business that is more than competitive on price and still offers excellent customer service. Impressive to say the least.

Charlize Theron is getting good at going the blue-collar route. Theron napalmed her beauty to play a serial killer in "Monster," earning an Oscar in the process. Her last big assignment, "North Country," doused her in a soot-covered uniform as she fought off sexist co-workers.
Now, she's poured into a pair of two-tone jeans for "Sleepwalking," a neglected indie released July 8 on DVD. Theron plays Joleen, a single mom with no money or job prospects but plenty of moxie. She drops in, unannounced, on her brother, James (Nick Stahl), when her current beau gets picked up for selling drugs.
But Joleen isn't long for James' home. She splits, leaving James to manage her daughter, Tara (AnnaSophia Robb). James can barely make it to work on time each morning, so he's hardly equipped to handle a petulant teen. Good thing his heart is as pure as Joleen's is cloudy. He makes do with his limited skills, getting counsel along the way from a fellow worker (Woody Harrelson). James eventually reunites with his vicious father (Dennis Hopper), but the plan is doomed from the start.
"Sleepwalking" is so bleak for so long it's a minor miracle we're still hanging in there by the final reel. Stahl gives a warm, understated performance as a man whose sense of compassion outstrips his ability to make his way in society. And young AnnaSophia rises above her character's hard-headed exterior. She's a real find.
Director Bill Maher ensures his talented cast looks and sounds as authentic as the austere setting, but he's undercut by a ill-conceived third act. The characters have nowhere to grow in "Sleepwalking," so they end up going nowhere. And, ultimately, so does the movie.

L'oreal Aishwarya's Beige
The search for the perfect nude lipstick, that "my lips but then better" look, has taken me on a long and perilous path filled with dragon-tempered sales assistants at cosmetics counters, lipsticks that made me look like an evil witch, and lipsticks that made my lips look like I had grabbed Snow White's poisoned apple and fell into a temporary death. All in all, a daunting and less than rewarding task. In keeping with the gloomy outcome of my search, I didn't expect much of L'oreal's Aishwarya's Beige lipstick and anticipated that it would give me the dreaded hypothermia-lip look. I was pleasantly surprised when this shiny, very sheer mauve-beige lipstick toned down my darker top lip and made my bottom lip more similar in colour with the top one. This is the lipstick I always reach for when I have just tumbled out of bed and have exactly two minutes to look presentable. Agreed, it doesn't impart that much colour but it's more of a beige that tones down my lips to an acceptable nude. I bought one more of this wonderful colour as I am deathly scared I won't have access to it in case I run out. One caveat however, is that the smell takes a bit of getting used to. If you can get past that and a chance to grab one of these, I say grab as many as you can.

Thanks so much for reading my blog. I love this lipstick too, really nice for a naturally nude lip or to tone down dark eyes.

Vermont utility seeks renewable energy moratorium
JOHNSON — One of Vermont's largest utilities is calling on the state to impose a moratorium on renewable energy mandates.
The board of Vermont Electric Cooperative approved a resolution Thursday seeking a two-year moratorium and formation of a statewide panel that includes customers to develop a renewable energy transition plan.
About a dozen opponents of wind energy attended the meeting at the co-op's headquarters in Johnson, where the resolution was passed.
Co-op CEO Dave Hallquist said the resolution reflects the sentiment of its members who are concerned about finding a balance between rising electric rates and the adoption of greener energy.
Senators voted against a moratorium in the last legislative session. They say they will continue to press for another vote.MORE IN This Just InWHITE RIVER JUNCTION Greg Smith, accused of shooting a man to death in downtown Springfield in...

It was the best Thursday night in MidPoint history. What was once a night that at times felt optional was this year something that you could not miss. Here is a recap, through tweets, of the nights happenings. See you tonight for another round!
great overview of Day 1!
As I had hoped, Hospitality absolutely killed it. Love their album, but it's even better live. Plus we got treated to a number of new songs, which makes me think we'll get album no.2 in 2013!
Very charmed as well by Here We Go Magic.
Sorry, comments are closed.

ASK IRA: Could Zo give it one more shot?
Q: Hey Ira, have you seen Zo around practices? If so, is he still keeping in shape? I ask, because I see guys like Shaq and Big Z playing these limited-but-effective roles on their respective teams, and can't help but think Zo can play a similar roll here with the Heat. Is that out of the realm or possibilities? — Ryan.
A: Yes. Everyone seems to forget about the knee injury. This is not about age or even the kidney. At times, it is difficult to locate Zo's knee cap. That gruesome injury in Atlanta ultimately is what ended his career.
Q Isn't it pretty evident that Wade has more skill that LeBron? — Omied.
A: You certainly could make that argument. At his size, Dwyane has to do more to get the same result. LeBron, with his freakish build, has a considerable head start when it comes to ease of scoring. But Dwyane certainly got the best of it Friday.
Q: From your emails do you sense that fans are still loyal to Wade and blame LeBron and Bosh when things go wrong? — David.
A: Yes. Those who have followed the team for a while appreciate what Dwyane did in 2006 and believe that even in the team's darkest moments that Dwyane still can create sunshine. But after the early-season struggles, the embraces for LeBron and Chris certainly are increasing. For now, it's all good.
Q: Da'Sean Butler seems to be getting healthier and ready to be back on the court soon. What are the chances he is put on the roster and the Heat releases Magloire? Seeing as we have enough big men on the roster, a scorer off the bench would be more useful down the stretch. – Bernal.
A: I'm not sure that would be the move, but it does seem as if the Heat could make better use of Jamaal's roster spot, since he is not playing, and once Mike Miller comes back, he almost certainly would be reduced to inactive status on game nights.
Q: Houston's Kyle Lowry has been putting up some monster numbers since Aaron Brooks went down with his injury. Is Lowry someone who could shake free via trade, or would Houston's asking price be too high? Lowry could shore up our need for a defense-minded, feisty PG. — Brad.
A: I think the Rockets, amid Aaron's injuries, appreciate the need for a pair of quality point guards. I don't see him shaking free, especially to a team like the Heat, which has such little to offer in return.

The Time Traveler's Wife
by Audrey Niffenegger
The Time Traveler's Wife Book 3, Chapter 3 Summary
How It All Goes Down
- Saturday, July 12, 2008 (Clare is 37): Clare arrives at Gomez's house, and waits for Charisse to return from roller-skating with Alba and her kids. When Gomez tells Clare that it's no use waiting for Henry to return, and that she needs to start dating again, she tells him she's simply not interested. But when Gomez starts kissing her, she has sex with him, imagining that she's with Henry. Charisse and the kids almost walk in on them. Clare feels ashamed. "What am I doing? What have I allowed myself to become?" Her mind answers: "You are the traveler now" (3.3.31).
- Saturday, July 26, 2008 (Clare is 37): Charisse and Clare take the kids out to eat at a restaurant. Clare reveals to Charisse that Henry has returned to see Alba, but not her.
- Saturday, September 3, 1990 (Henry is 27): After partying, Henry and Ingrid are looking for their car. They're both drunk. Ingrid notices a little girl they saw before they entered the club as well. When Ingrid asks her if she lost her way, the girl says she's fine. She's looking for her dad, but realized she's too early. She points them to their car, though. Henry casts the event off as a strange occurrence.
- Sunday, July 29, 1979 (Henry is 42): Henry and Alba play in the sand at Lighthouse Beach. People stare at them, because they've both time traveled and are now wearing strange clothes. Alba asks Henry why never visits her Clare. He replies that he would, but that he can't.

|Mercedes-Benz SL 350
|Image gallery (6)
|User Comments (4)
Page 1 of 1
Latest edition to the Mercedes-Benz SL line-up is the V6 engined SL 350. Even in standard specification, the V6 sports car boasts the high-tech features which also distinguish the SL 500 presented in autumn 2001. These include the vario-roof, Sensotronic Brake Control, automatic roll-over bar, electrically adjustable integral seats, adaptive airbags for driver and passenger, and large head-thorax sidebags. The Mercedes sports car is also fitted as standard with a stereo radio system, sensor-controlled automatic climate control, xenon headlamps, high-quality aluminium trim and seat covers in a sporty fabric/leather combination.
Mercedes-Benz has connected the V6 engine with the Sequentronic automated six-speed transmission, which SL 350 drivers can operate from the steering wheel, as in a racing car. Two rocker switches on the back of the steering wheel spokes allow particularly fast gear-change at the touch of a button. In addition, Sequentronic offers two gearshift programs (Comfort and Sport), which drivers can use to adapt the characteristics of the transmission to their personal driving style. Meanwhile, auto-shift mode is available for stop-and-go traffic conditions. This function enables Sequentronic to change gear automatically.
The new six-cylinder SL-Class model also has the same chassis construction as the SL 500, with the exception of the Active Body Control spring/damper control system. This means that the SL 350 also features four-link front suspension and multi-link independent rear suspension made from aluminium and disc brakes on all wheels, which are applied by the Sensotronic Brake Control electrohydraulic high-pressure braking system in response to the driving situation in hand.

Crews have been diligently and repetitively searching for 7-week-old Aniston Walker. A City Watch Alert was issued for the baby, and so far investigations have turned up no reported leads.
The 7 week old infant was last seen at "5604 Falling Bark Drive in Memphis." The baby is a black female weighing approximately 10 pounds with a medium complexion and brown eyes. She was wearing a brown onesie that had football logos on it.
Police have used K-9 units to help in the search for baby Aniston both outside of the home and in the woods nearby.
Aniston's mother claimed she had not seen the baby since leaving the home to drop an older child off at school. She allegedly left Aniston with a caregiver, but authorities are saying that the stories are conflicting.
It was later discovered that Walker left the baby and her 3 year old toddler at home alone while taking her other child to school. It has been discoverd that the 3 year old was again left at home when Walker went to look for the baby.
Several family members have been questioned in relation to the disappearance of Aniston Walker.
The neighborhood has been searched 4 times while small garbage bins and dumpsters have also been combed through. So far there is no trace of the helpless 7 week old baby.
Neighbor, Zyyeria Green made a statement that many have thought throughout the entire ordeal when she said, "When a baby ain't nothing but seven weeks, you could have took the baby with you ... Most mothers I know take the baby everywhere that they go."
Crime scene detectives have removed baby items from Walkers home, but nothing has been released if anything has been found.
Though police have not officially stated that a crime has taken place, Aniston's mother, Andrea A. Walker, was arrested and booked Friday at 4:06 a.m.
Andrea Walker, 33 years old, has been charged with "2 counts of aggravated child abuse and 2 counts of aggravated child neglect or endangerment." It is said that she called the baby's father before notifying the police that Aniston was missing.
Walker stated that the home was locked and that there was no signs that anyone had forced their way into the home.
The affidavit stated, "Affiant is an experienced homicide investigator and personally observed several hours of interview with defendant, Walker. Based on his experience and age of the child that is missing, Affiant has probable cause to believe the child has sustained serious bodily injury."
Anyone with information on the whereabouts of this child or with information that could lead to her should call police at 901-545-2677.

College Hockey:Bantams Blank Ice Knights, 4-0
Trinity's Kisielius Notches First Shutout of Season
GENESEO, N.Y. — The "home" team won despite playing on the road.
Trinity defeated Geneseo, 4-0, in the NCAA Quarterfinal round in the Ira S. Wilson Ice Arena as Doug Kisielius recorded his first shutout of the season. Trinity, the higher seed, was forced to play its home game at Geneseo due to not having a rink to host the game.
"This team has played well on the road," Trinity coach John Dunham said. "We haven't lost a game on the road this year. It's very important to get the first goal in front of a hostile crowd."
That first goal came midway through the opening period on a Thomas Wenstrum shot from the left point. A hard, low shot that a partially screened Brett Walker couldn't stop, snuck just inside the far post.
"Tom had that shot from the point right through the screen hit the far corner and that really got us going," Dunham said.
"Once the puck bounced out, I didn't want to waste a situation in a game like this especially that early in the game," Wenstrum said. "Luckily we got the first goal of the game."
"That first goal had eyes on it," Geneseo coach Brian Hills said.
Both teams came out more than willing to take the body, especially Geneseo's Steve Sankey who hit everything he saw in gold.
Trinity had the better opportunities in the first including a pair of two-on-ones. The first involved Cameron Finch and Simon Dionne, with Finch taking the shot. The second time again involved Finch, but this time he passed to Ryan Stevens who fired it at Walker. Both times Walker came up with a solid save and covered up.
Though the shots were even at eleven apiece in the opening period, Walker was called upon to make the harder saves, once again providing his team the opportunity to win the game.
Kisielius was called upon to make some tough saves as well, but it was the goalie's favorite friend, the crossbar, that made the biggest save of the period.
The second period saw the tide start to change as Geneseo applied more pressure on Trinity. Chris Tarr found himself all alone on the side of the net. However, despite three successive shots, he was unable to get one by Kisielius.
Trinity got another two-on-one as John Halverson carried the puck in with Kevin Hathway on his left side. Halverson took it in himself, but his shot was once again stopped by Walker.
On the last Geneseo power play of the second period, Mitch Stephens fired a bullet from the right point with traffic in front. Kisielius saw it all the way and made a great glove save as Stephens rolled his head back in agony.
"We got lots of shots at him," Stephens said. "Some real good quality chances. He just seemed to get the body in front of everything tonight. We just couldn't seem to catch a break and find a way to get it by him."
The score remained 1-0 heading into the third period.
After a long delay waiting for the ice to dry before the third period started, Trinity appeared to catch the Ice Knights sleeping. Adam Ladd won the center ice faceoff, and Bryan Crabtree quickly brought the puck into the zone on the right side. Crabtree then let go of a seemingly harmless wrist shot that somehow fooled Walker on the glove side.
The power play goal came just six seconds into the final period.
Said Dunham: "To start the third period we ran a play off our power play where we line up two forwards as defensemen and we shot the two forwards through the gap. It's the first time we scored a goal off that play, so it couldn't have come at a better time."
"Like coach said, we ran a play," Crabtree said. "The two of us broke in. Coach has been telling us all week, 'Just fire pucks. Put the puck on the net and something will happen.' Caught the goalie leaning to the blocker side and put the puck into the corner."
Trinity nearly made it 3-0 just as quickly, as Halverson had a point-blank shot in front that Walker smothered.
Geneseo had its chances in the third period.
About four minutes in, Trent Cassan carried the puck in on a two-on-none breakaway. He had intentions of keeping the puck all along, patiently approached the goal, picked his spot, and fired it to the far side beating the goalie. It bounced harmlessly away off the goalpost.
"The big point was when we had that turnover," Dunham said. "And they had the two on none and they hit the post. I've been on the other side of that, and when that happens, you think it's just not our night."
"I thought he was going to go short side," Kisielius said. "He caught me offguard. When it hit the post, I knew it was our night."
"We just couldn't seem to catch a break," Hills said.
The Ice Knights got another power play halfway through the period. However, this time, Geneseo did not apply any pressure.
Geneseo was given yet another power play, as Thomas Wenstrum was called for his second consecutive penalty. The only chance Geneseo had was when Stephens fired a shot from the left point into a crowd, but Kisielius was able to find it and covered up the rebound.
After the power play, Trinity put the finishing touches on the game when a crossing pass by Rafuse caught Walker out of position. Walker dove across the net to try and stop a shot by Rick Masucci, but Masucci easily redirected the puck into the unguarded net.
Geneseo pulled Walker with just under three minutes left in the third period. The Ice Knights did at times produce flurries in front of the net, but Kisielius would not be denied the shutout.
"Their goaltender had an exceptional game," Hills said.
Wenstrum sealed the game with an empty net goal in the last minute.
Geneseo ends its season at 18-7-4 and continues to search for its first NCAA playoff win.
Meanwhile, Trinity (21-3-2) goes to the championship weekend for the first time in school history. The Bantams will play St. Thomas in the semifinals. They will also play these games on the road, at Middlebury, at 3:30 p.m. ET Friday.

David Lee Roth has wrapped up a new solo album according to John 5 of Rob Zombie band. The on-again-off-again Van Halen frontman and current Rob Zombie guitarist have collaborated on the record that was reportedly finished about a year and a half ago.
John 5 told rock journalist, Mitch Lafon, "Dave and I just made another record, and it's, like, the 'California Sessions', he was calling it. And it's 11 of the greatest songs you'll ever hear, and it's just me and Dave, and we had Gregg Bissonette play drums on it. And it's unbelievable. There's a song called Somewhere Over The Rainbow Bar & Grill. And you know, just great, great songs. And hopefully sometime it'll see the light of day. But he's, of course, busy with Van Halen and all that stuff. But it's an incredible record."
John 5 said that working with Dave was just like it used to be and that his sound hasn't changed much, John 5 was selected by Roth to play lead guitar on the 1998 release "DLR Band." The guitarist added that the record sounds like Dave from "Van Halen I" or "II " or "Women And Children First" era. Vintage David Lee Roth with all the "Aaaahaa's!" And "Ooooooh Yeah's!" Should be good news for fans.
The original voice of Van Halen promised back in December that a VH release was 18 months out and would be ready by middle of 2015, it was technically 14 years between Van Halen's last two albums. Diamond Dave and Eddie Van Halen had been writing and starting to put music together but because of the band's intricate attention to detail and their involvement with the entire artistic process the timeframe for completion was estimated at a year and half.
VH fans always want more, when Roth left the band after "1984" and years later joined up for a short while only to disappear again it tugged at fans hearts. Then Roth reunited for real with Van Halen and critics acclaimed that the band was back to their classic form. Fans can now get excited for double the diamond fun with Roth's solo project and VH album to be released hopefully next year.

text: Despite last week's minor medical setback, Selena Gomez has not been slowing down on her public appearances, and continued to assure fans she's back to form by stopping by Good Morning America on Friday. Far from a Chris Brown-style appearance, Gomez sat down with Robin Roberts and George Stephanopoulos to discuss her recent hospital stay and performed in Central Park for fans in front of an oversized logo of series sponsor Burger King. (Kind of a cruel way to taunt the star who blamed her hospitalization on too much junk food.) With her band Selena Gomez and the Scene, the 19-year-old sung older hit "Naturally," and the Monte Carlo-promoting "Who Says," before treating fans to "Love You Like A Love Song" for the first time live. Considering its the song whose video sparked controversy over painted pink horses, and some salty words from P!nk, we were expecting a bit more from the performance. (Does no one appreciate drama anymore?) "Who Says" and "Love You Like A Love Song" are both featured on the band's upcoming album When The Sun Goes Down out June 28. Excited yet?

The season is over for the Cal State Northridge women's basketball team following a 73-58 defeat at the hands of South Carolina in the first round of the NCAA Tournament on Sunday afternoon. The result may not come as a shock to most people as the number 1 seeded Gamecocks were heavy favorites over the number 16 seeded Matadors. Still, the seeding differential does little to comfort a Northridge team that worked so hard all season long but will now have to watch the remainder of the tournament from home.
The Matadors were lead on offense by junior guard Janae Sharpe who ended the game with 26 points, the most of any player in the entire game. Her contributions helped Northridge keep the game competitive down the stretch but ultimately the Gamecocks pulled away and claimed a double-digit victory. The South Carolina squad was offensively lead by sophomore guard Tiffany Mitchell, the SEC player of the year, who finished with 24 points. The Gamecocks now advance to the round of 32 where they will face Oregon State on Tuesday night.
Though the loss surely hurts right now the Matadors have no reason to hang their heads. They had a terrific season in which they finished with the best overall record in the Big West and won the conference tournament to claim the Big West title. With most of their current roster expected to return next season, the Cal State Northridge women's basketball team has a bright future ahead of it.

College Hockey:Providence Beats BU In OT
Friars Rally From Two-Goal Deficit To Stun Terriers
Sometimes clichs just fit like a glove.
A two-goal lead was the most dangerous lead in hockey Thursday, as Boston University dominated Providence in shots and possession for the first 46 minutes, only to surrender a 2-0 lead in the last 14 minutes of regulation.
Friar forward Chris Chaput — a healthy scratch in last weekend's win against Maine — added the game winner at 3:33 of overtime to make it a 3-2 win for Providence in front of 2,267 fans at Walter Brown area. It was a classic never-say-die performance, especially by Friar goalie Nolan Schaefer, who made 42 saves.
Peter Fregoe had a goal and an assist for the Friars (11-7-1, 5-6-1), who were outshot 20-3 in the second period and who could not muster a single shot on goal for the first six minutes of the third period until Fregoe lit the lamp to spark the team. Mark Mullen and Brian Collins had a goal apiece, and Bryan Miller added a pair of assists for the Terriers (13-7-2, 7-5-0) in a losing effort.
"I'd rather get outshot and win ugly, and that's what we did tonight," Friar coach Paul Pooley said. "Nolan Schaefer had a huge game tonight. At this point of the year, it doesn't matter how you get the wins, you just have to get the 'W.' I'll take this one any day."
"I thought we dominated the first two periods but didn't dominate on the scoreboard," Terrier coach Jack Parker said. "We let them hang around, and they kept hanging around because of how well Schaefer played.
"But also we had a lot of good chances that we thought were going to go into net, and we didn't make sure," added Parker. "They kind of rope-a-doped us — outshooting them badly in the first two periods, and then it's 11-11 in the third and they get a goal and get jacked up. The goals they got were just absolute critical mistakes on coverage."
BU dominated territorially for much of the first period, though the teams traded chances over several power plays. Ultimately, the Terriers broke on top with all of two-tenths of a second left in the period.
D-man Bryan Miller raced up ice on the right wing before taking a shot that Schaefer stopped with a pad. Trailing the play, Mark Mullen almost had the rebound slip behind him, but he wheeled and fired the puck off the far post and in just before the buzzer sounded.
The momentum from the buzzer-beater carried into the second period, when the Terriers played one of their better periods of the season, suffocating the Friars territorially and piling up almost seven shots for every one that they surrendered.
Peter Zingoni did have one good chance at 8:15 for the Friars, when a pass off the boards left him alone with BU goalie Sean Fields, but the Terrier junior made the blocker save. The Terriers looked to have a goal at the 12-minute mark when Justin Maiser's redirect of a Whitney shot hit a post and headed for the net. Several Terriers lifted their sticks, only to see the puck deflect through the crease, missing the other post by inches.
On a power play at 18:18, there was another slapshot and redirect, and this time the Terriers' aim was true. Brian Collins got a piece of Freddy Meyer's slapshot, and the puck dribbled over Schaefer's arm and in for the 2-0 lead.
After the ominous shooting drought to start the third period, Providence scored on its second shot of the third stanza on an excellent playmaking read by Devin Rask. The left winger received a pass going toward the goal line and somehow knew that Fregoe was trailing the play behind him and to his right. Fields was lured to the side of the net, and when the pass came out in the slot, Fregoe had ample net to hit. That made it 2-1 at 6:35.
BU very nearly regained the two-goal cushion at the nine-minute mark when Frantisek Skladany crashed the net to redirect another Whitney shot, but Schaefer got himself in the right place. With the Terriers dominating in the PC end, he was forced to make several saves amidst traffic.
"I think my more important saves have been the ones in traffic that I've really been having trouble with," Schaefer said.
"He made a couple of great saves on seeing-eye shots from the point," Parker said.
Providence tied the game with 6:26 remaining when Stephen Wood took a big 30-foot slapshot, falling down in the process. Fields had a clear view of it, but the puck knuckled down and appeared to beat him five-hole to tie it.
"I think when we got the first goal, we got a little bit of belief," Pooley said. "When we got the second goal, we were sky-high."
Referee Scott Hanson put away the whistle from there on in, ignoring a few brutal BU hits into the boards as well as some clutching and grabbing by the Friars.
Chaput's overtime game-winner came just after the Terriers' umpteenth close-but-not-quite scoring opportunity. Ryan Whitney skated in on the left wing and took a good shot. Skladany was well-positioned for the rebound, except for the fact that his stick had just been knocked out of his hands.
Freshman Torry Gajda picked up the rebound and set up Chaput for the breakaway. It looked as if Fields guessed that Chaput would deke and go low on the glove side, but Chaput shot it up and in on the stick side as Fields sprawled to his left.
"There were some big goals in high school, playing at Mount [St. Charles in Rhode Island], but I'd have to say that this was up there as one of the big ones," Chaput said.
"It's a great feeling to see your team pick up and come back like that," Schaefer said. "Any time you can win in BU's barn, it's just a great experience."
"We played real well tonight," Parker said. "You can't call that a bad loss. If there's such a thing as a good loss, that was a good loss. But it hurts us in the league and hurts us overall. It's hard to swallow."
BU has the rest of the weekend off and will play archrival Boston College in a home-and-home series next weekend. Providence hosts New Hampshire on Saturday night.

Many people do not realize that they can get a wonderful pet from a shelter, sanctuary or rescue. The majority believe that only animals who misbehave, are old, have health problems or have medical issues, end up in shelters. The fact is, you can find pets in shelters from puppy or kitten to adult and also mixed to full breeds. Most of the animals have very little issues if any at all. Their are many rescue groups who specialize in specific breeds from Airdales to Wire Fox Terriers. If you are interested in full breed pets you can visit www.allbreedrescuenetwork.com to find the breed you are interested in. You may also contact local shelters and ask to be put on a waiting list for a specific breed.
If you are looking specifically for a puppy, you can contact www.coloradopuppy.org, or call other rescue groups. You may be surprised at how many puppies are given up each day from people who's pets had puppies or people who adopted a puppy and didn't realize the time and energy it takes to raise, train and care for a puppy.
Nearly every shelter has adult dogs. You can visit www.everycreaturecounts.org to view some pets as well as other local shelters web sites. Many pets are fostered with famililies and their personalities are known very well by their caretakers. Sanctuaries will more than likely be more truthful about the animals personalities than will a shelter.
Sanctuaries and rescues work at finding animals forever homes and do extensive screening to ensure that pets are taken care of and will not return back to homelessness.
Shelters try to place animals quickly and have minimal questions and requirements for potential adopters.
Puppies require a lot of one on one care and training and tend to chew on things and are not potty trained. Adult dogs are usually potty trained but may have issues from their past owners.
Weigh out pros and cons from adopting from a shelter vs. a rescue as well as pros and cons of puppy vs. adult. Narrow down your choices and find your perfect pet.

There are two distinct things about your grandmother's home. First, there's that smell. Not necessarily a bad smell, per se, but a strong, unmistakable scent nonetheless. Second, there are doilies all over the house. Oh my god, there are doilies on the mantle, doilies on the windowsill, and even doilies on top of doilies. That's precisely why she's going to love to this Giant Crochet Doily Rug ($150). We give it just two months in her house before it start smelling like her, too.

The protests just keep on keeping on. Last night night saw more trouble in Ferguson, Missouri, ostensibly over the killing of Michael Brown. But are the protesters, even when peaceful, helping or hurting their cause?
Every rational person wants justice, in this case as in any sad incident. But it seems as though the actions of the Ferguson citizenry, or at the least a small number of them, may be stoking the fires to no good purpose. Isn't it time to take a breath and give the process of justice a chance? Whatever else may be thought, it isn't as though the case is going to go away. There are too many people involved and too many levels of government for that to happen. Marching every evening won't change that.
Yet, perhaps, justice isn't the point. It is that outlandish to wonder whether the protests are really thinly veiled threats? Is it within the realm of possibility that the people of Ferguson want Officer Darren Wilson convicted, or else? Many of those protesting have made it quite clear that he's guilty and that's all there is to it. Such are hardly calls for justice.
What everyone, those who think Brown a victim and those who fear Wilson may be railroaded, needs to remember is that very few people actually know what happened that night. As should be expected, there are conflicting reports of what exactly went on during the altercation. It is hardly justice for anyone to act too certain about culpability.
Let or at least give justice a chance to play itself out. This won't be over with for a very long time. But it's time to let the process go on, unhindered by any presuppositions.

Now that a full day has passed since Real Salt Lake lost 4-0 at Seattle and the players are back at work getting ready for a mid-week trip to Columbus, it's time to reflect on that sunny afternoon in Seatown. It seemed like RSL players got trampled on a ridiculously soggy artificial turf pitch for no reason--other than to get their butts handed to them.
To his credit, Real Salt Lake head coach Jeff Cassar did very little complaining about the woodshed beating his players took--though he did point out that the first goal Seattle got from the foul called on defender Aaron Maund that resulted in a penalty kick was a mistake.
Ultimately, goalkeeper Jeff Attinella took credit for not doing his job leading up to the foul. He admitted he should have called Maund off the ball and taken more responsibility on the play.
Be that as it may, many Real Salt Lake fans would argue that the foul on Maund was probably not worthy of a penalty kick in the first place and that it may have changed the complexion of the game. After the second and third goals went into RSL's net you just knew it wasn't going to be RSL's day.
Sure, Real Salt Lake fans probably wanted to rip what hair remains from their scalps after witnessing the Sounders treating RSL like it was a soccer team filled with schoolboys. And rightfully so. But it's time to move on and forget about this painful loss--and that's precisely what the coach and players were saying after the match.
The penalty kick, Part 1
Cassar: "When it's hard fought, it's the 42nd minute, it's a very even match at a tough place to play, then that – it is a little deflating. But I thought our guys came out hungry and were trying to get back in the game. We weren't accepting 1-0 down, but it just wasn't our day. Credit to Seattle for capitalizing on our mistakes."
Penalty kick, Part 2
Attinella: "I came out, called [defender] Tony [Beltran] off of it, thought I had it and then next thing I know I didn't. I tried to scramble and find the ball. I thought Aaron (Maund) did a good job of going shoulder to shoulder with him but obviously the ref thought differently and it definitely changed the game. It is what it is; you can't leave it up to a call. Maybe I should have gone through him but I thought I had the ball but who knows. Obviously he saw it better than I did."
First two goals
Cassar: "To be honest with you, I just told the guys to discount the third and fourth goals because we were pushing and we knew we were going to be exposed at the back. But I thought the commitment level was there. It was a very even match in the first half for sure. Two dead ball situations – the PK and the free kick – then the rest was just breaks on counters. It's a tough place to play and we don't have a full arsenal, but I thought the guys out there did a very good job."
Short-term memory
Defender Nat Borchers: "Either way I think that we're going to bounce back. They didn't crush us 4-0 beleaguered. The actual way the game was played, and I think that we've got some good games ahead of us and it'll be important to respond for sure."
On to the next one
Cassar: "I don't enjoy it. I don't want it to happen often, but we knew it was going to happen [eventually]. It was a fantastic run that we went on, but I'm trying to make sure the team will react the same way I do – we have work to do and it's on to the next game."

Honda Accord Hybrid Falls Well Short Of 47 MPG, Says Consumer Reports
Posted on Thursday May 29, 2014
Filed under: Green,Honda,ElectricThe Honda Accord Hybrid is the latest to arouse the ratings bear, returning "just" 40 combined mpg in CR testing. Even so, that makes it "a class leader for fuel economy among midsized sedans," besting even the Civic Hybrid in CR testing, but that's still a lucky roll of the dice short of its EPA rating of 47 mpg.

The next frontier for costly confrontations, disputes or perhaps even some form of war will continue in cyberspace. A report published Monday sponsored by McAfee and authored by the Center for Strategic and International Studies (CSIS) revealed that malicious cyber activities were directly responsible for the significant economic setbacks in the United States and abroad.
This was the first time McAfee sponsored this first-of-its-kind report that carefully examined the impact of cyber activities upon the economy. It is estimated that Cybercrime and Cyber Espionage cost $100 billion in losses to the United States (U.S) economy along with 508,000 jobs. This indirectly affects the economic performance of other nations that trade and have economic partnerships with the U.S
"We believe the CSIS report is the first to use actual economic modeling to build out the figures for the losses attributable to malicious cyber activity," said Mike Fey, executive vice president and chief technology officer at McAfee. "Other estimates have been bandied about for years, but no one has put any rigor behind the effort. As policymakers, business leaders and others struggle to get their arms around why cyber security matters, they need solid information on which to base their actions."
To help measure accurately these complicated activities on the web CSIS did enlist economists, intellectual property experts and security researchers to successfully put together a comprehensive report.
The categories that were identified as malicious cyber activity were classified as the following:
- The loss of intellectual property
- Cybercrime
- The loss of sensitive business information, including possible stock market manipulation
- Opportunity costs, including service disruptions and reduced trust for online activities
- The additional cost of securing networks, insurance and recovery from cyber attacks
- Reputational damage to the hacked company
This report is supposed to be one of the first to connect cyber activity with job loss. The ongoing debate we hear a good portion of the time in the media or on television is because of inadequate policy, investment, and confounded in meaningless rhetoric.
"This report is also the first to connect malicious cyber activity with job loss," said James Lewis, director and senior fellow, Technology and Public Policy Program at CSIS and a co-author of the report. "Using figures from the Commerce Department on the ratio of exports to U.S. jobs, we arrived at a high-end estimate of 508,000 U.S. jobs potentially lost from cyber espionage. As with other estimates in the report, however, the raw numbers might tell just part of the story. If a good portion of these jobs were high-end manufacturing jobs that moved overseas because of intellectual property losses, the effects could be more wide ranging."
The report offers a comprehensive snapshot of the true cost of cybercrime and its overall impact on the economy. Still there are lots of questions to address in this cybernetic world we live in and this is one of the first steps to encapsulate a complicated issue.
