FREMONT -- An ex-con suspected of stealing a postal package and food for the needy from a Fremont porch, a theft captured on video surveillance that went viral last year, pleaded not guilty to charges including felony petty theft on Thursday.
Danielle Shauntey Gonsalves, 32, was on probation for other theft-related charges when she was arrested Feb. 13 in Oakland in connection with the stolen package and food caper caught on video in November, police said.
At the time of her arrest, she was in possession of mail, credit cards and identification that belonged to other victims, said Fremont police spokeswoman Geneva Bosques.
The video, captured by the homeowner, received more than 8,000 views, police have said.
Gonsalves, charged with misdemeanor petty theft, felony identity theft and felony petty theft with priors, was in custody at Santa Rita Jail on Thursday. She wore a jail jumpsuit as she stood beside her attorney inside a Fremont Hall of Justice courtroom before Judge Dennis J. McLaughlin.
During the brief hearing, the judge accepted her not-guilty plea and set her next court appearance for March 15.
A criminal complaint shows Gonsalves has been convicted of six other theft-related offenses in Alameda County dating back to 2001. She's also spent time in prison for at least one of the offenses. She was convicted of that crime -- a second-degree felony commercial burglary -- on Oct. 12, 2004.
Her other convictions include another felony second-degree commercial burglary and a felony forgery conviction on Oct. 17, 2007, for which she received a sentence of probation. At the time of her Feb. 13 arrest, she had not yet been sentenced for a felony receiving stolen property conviction that took place July 29, 2011.
Fremont police released still pictures from a video surveillance camera in mid-November to help catch a woman seen taking a package and some canned goods for the needy from a porch in the city's Glenmoor neighborhood.
The theft took place about 12:55 p.m. Nov. 17, when the woman approached a home in the 4500 block of Meyer Park Circle about 20 minutes after United Parcel Service delivered the package, police said.
The video surveillance appears to show the woman taking the package, along with a bag of canned goods that had been left out for a charity organization, police said.
The package contained a pair of work boots, police said.
The video can be seen at the Fremont Police Department's YouTube channel at www.youtube.com/user/FremontPoliceDept/.
Anyone with information about the incident is asked to contact Fremont police at email@example.com or call the Investigative Unit at 510-790-6900. Anonymous tips can be left at www.fremontpolice.org/tip by referencing the "Glenmoor Mail Theft."

Built using the Wright 2 Framework!
Why Should you care what Framework your Joomla Template is built upon?
- If you want your site to load quickly, then you need to have a Joomla Template built with a Framework that's Lightweight.
- If you want your site to be able to run the latest version of Joomla, then you will need a Joomla Template built with a Future-Proof Framework that is quickly updated with each Joomla release.
Are all Template Frameworks built the same way?
Other Frameworks have taken what we are convinced is the wrong approach. They have integrated tons of features that have made their frameworks bloated, fat, slow, unreliable and tiresome to update and maintain. There is simply a lot more stuff to go wrong in them and more stuff to update with each new Joomla release. Soon you start to realize that when it comes to Frameworks: less is more.
Why is Joomlashack's Wright Framework Different?
We believe that the Framework should be minimalistic - - it should have the bare minimum to load and function. At 1.2Mb, Wright v1 was already the most lightweight Framework out there: Wright 2 is even lighter, and as a result, when compared with other Frameworks.
- Sites built with Wright load quicker.
- Wright works reliably with the most popular and the obscure Joomla Extensions.
The Joomlashack approach
We build light, non-bloated, and simple to install Joomla Templates to make your life easier. We call them "strictly Joomla", because in most cases you are able to install them using only the Joomla CMS and it's built-in features.
Experienced developers have loved our "Strictly Joomla" Templates since 2005 because:
- You don't need to install heavy plugins or extensions to make the template work.
- Fewer extensions means easier updates and maintenance as well as better compatibility with 3rd party extensions.
- A light and quick-loading site is good for SEO.
- Our templates' simpler overrides reduce installation, support, upgrade, and maintenance needs.
The following is included with the purchase of your template:
- The template install file.
- Installation and configuration support and advice.
- Source Graphics (but in most cases not the placeholder images) used to create the template, allowing easy customization of template graphics.
- A guarantee the template will work as promised with default Joomla, and that bugs in this template if found will be fixed in a timely manner.
What module positions are in this template?
Academic supports several module positions.
Color Options
Below you can see the different styles available with this template.
All of our templates include detailed documentation for installation and configuration.

Old English snāw, of Germanic origin; related to Dutch sneeuw and German Schnee, from an Indo-European root shared by Latin nix, niv- and Greek nipha.
sledge from Old English:
The sledge that is a vehicle used on snow and ice came in the late 16th century from Dutch and is related to sled (Middle English), sleigh (early 18th century), slide (Old English), and slither (Middle English). Sleigh is from Dutch, and was originally adopted in North America. To take for a sleigh ride is a dated slang phrase meaning 'to mislead', from the use of sleigh ride for an implausible or false story or a hoax. A sleigh ride could also mean 'a drug-induced high'—this went with the use of snow for cocaine in white powder form, an early 20th-century use for this Old English word. As a name for what we would now more usually call a sledgehammer, the other sledge is recorded in Old English and goes back to a root meaning 'to strike' and related to slay. A sledgehammer is a large, heavy hammer used for jobs such as breaking rocks and driving in fence posts, so to take a sledgehammer to crack a nut is to use a disproportionately forceful means to achieve a simple objective. The expression is recorded in the 1930s, but a decade earlier an American version use a sledgehammer to kill a gnat appears. In the 1970s Australian cricketers started sledging, or making offensive or needling remarks to opposing batsmen in an attempt to break their concentration. The idea behind the term is the crudity and lack of subtlety involved in using a sledge or sledgehammer.

Pumpkin Toffee Cheesecake (Treats For Co-Irkers)
Pumpkin Toffee Cheesecake (adapted from VeryBestBaking)
1 1/2 cups crushed shortbread cookies (This was one sleeve of Lorna Doones for me)
2 tablespoons butter, melted
3 (8 oz) packages cream cheese, softened
1 1/4 cups packed brown sugar
1 can (15 oz.) pure pumpkin
1/3 cup evaporated milk
1/3 cup heavy cream
2 large eggs
2 tablespoons cornstarch
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
8 ounces sour cream, at room temperature
2 tablespoons granulated sugar
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/4 tsp cinnamon
1/2 cup crushed milk chocolate-toffee pieces
Caramel ice cream topping (optional)
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Spray a 9" springform pan with cooking spray and place on baking sheet.
FOR CRUST: Combine cookie crumbs and butter in small bowl. Press onto bottom and 1-inch up side of 9-inch springform pan. Bake for 6 to 8 minutes (do not allow to brown). Cool on wire rack for 10 minutes.
FOR CHEESECAKE: Beat cream cheese and brown sugar in large mixer bowl until creamy. Add pumpkin, evaporated milk, cream, eggs, cornstarch and cinnamon; beat well. Pour into crust. Bake for 60 to 65 minutes or until edge is set but center still moves slightly. Remove from oven.

It was like Thanksgiving distilled and then wrapped up in cream cheese. The cheesecake alone is a treat to the senses and then add in that irresistible crust and fantastic topping...if you haven't decided on a Thanksgiving dessert I urge you to make this. Your family will thank you.
And thank you, Mags. We truly enjoy working with your hubs and feel he is part of our little dysfunctional family. So happy Thanksgiving to you and your family from your extended (and often times crazy) work family.

On Sunday, Peter Macfarlane will embark on a canoe trip through the Northern Forest Canoe Trail. With a boat that he hand-crafted himself for the adventure, Macfarlane will travel by himself with light camping gear and prepared foods.
According to the NFCT, over 50 people have completed the 740-mile trail, but only a few have done the trip solo. He hopes to complete the journey by next month, as he is taking time off from his business in order to complete the trip he's always dreamed of taking.
The 50-year-old will be documenting his travels in a personal blog, which you can find by clicking "here". If you are interested in purchasing a hand-crafted canoe from Macfarlane, visit his website here.

9-9-9…I'd rather have a pizza!
At first blush, almost any plan looks better than the jumble of rules, regulations and loopholes of our current tax code. Unfortunately, the proof is in the pudding, as they say, and when you run Herman Cain's plan in various scenarios, it just doesn't work. In order for a plan to be truly effective, it needs to be run in every scenario possible, with positive results. This 'plan' is especially ineffective in most scenarios and actually INCREASES taxes for most Americans and many businesses. EX. http://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/fact-checker/post/herman-cains-misleading-pitch-for-the-999-plan/2011/10/12/gIQAHszPgL_blog.html
Cain's plan makes no distinction between profits and revenues for a business…so, if a company has revenue during the year, but still has a loss (which many businesses do for their first few years), they STILL have to pay the Sales Tax 9% AND the Corporate tax 9%, for a total of 18%…even though they show a loss!! How do you think THAT will fare with business owners? I'm one of them and I would NOT be happy!
Also…right now, everything a company invests in its business is tax-deductible, including worker salaries…not so under the Cain plan. The figures show that companies (especially small companies) will pay more under Cain's plan than current. For instance, if a company has capital expenses now, they're deductible. Under Cain, they're deductible ONLY if the purchases are for products made in America! Sounds really good until you realize that we are a world economy today and that there are no (or very few) semiconductors or integrated circuits (and other computer parts) that are made in America. Without those deductions, MOST companies would go bankrupt, being unable to deduct their product & inventory (cost of goods) purchases…they just couldn't get by without the deduction, and then add 18% tax on top of that (corporate income 9% and sales tax 9%). EXAMPLE: if a company wants to buy 500 Apple computers because of expansion, would they be deductible because they are being purchased from an American company? Herman Cain's answer to that very question is, "Ahhh…I don't know!" LOL. "I DON'T KNOW????" Mr. Cain, you wrote the plan…if you don't know, who does?
Sorry, on a purely financial analysis, Cain's 9-9-9 plan is untenable and will drive businesses into bankruptcy and lose more American jobs than you can imagine! If someone out there has a different analysis, I'd love to see it. BTW…if a Democrat had proposed this plan, the right-wing would be up in arms against the "anti-business" socialist who wants to destroy business in America!
As another aside: Cain's preference for American goods only, would be a direct violation of the many international trade agreements that we have signed over the decades. Sure, we could say, screw the agreements…BUT, then, America would not be able to sell our products overseas…then what!?? Sometimes, what seems so simple is just that…simple…too simple and impractical.
Life…and economics…is more complicated than that. THAT'S the problem with Cain's economic advisor…he has none! The only adviser Cain has been willing to mention by name —Rich Lowrie – is a wealth manager for a division of Wells Fargo, and according to his LinkedIn page, holds an accountancy degree from Case Western Reserve University. Lowrie also spent three (3) years on the advisory board of the conservative third-party group Americans For Prosperity. Not totally surprising is that the 9-9-9 plan that Lowrie came up with was actually co-opted the tax system from the Sims videogame!! I think Mr. Lowrie (AND Mr. Cain) are operating a little out of their league! But, I'll leave that for you to decide.

'Doctor Who' cast says goodbye to the Ponds at Comic-Con
Some last words from stars Karen Gillan and Arthur Darvill about being on the show
Considering most of the people camped out overnight at Comic-Con were there for "Doctor Who," it would have been an insult not to provide a lot of exclusives during the panel.
For one of the Con's most dedicated groups of fans, Sunday's panel was full of surprises.
Fans saw the last few minutes of last season — that, of course, ended with actor Matt Smith, looking mischievously at the camera after being asked what the real name of "the Doctor" is.
The panel, which consisted of stars Smith, Karen Gillan and Arthur Darvill and executive producers Steven Moffat and Caroline Skinner, talked about how excited they were to cross the pond to hang out at the Con for a weekend.
"If the world was a bit more like Comic-Con, it would be a better place," Smith said.
Speaking of ponds, fans will say goodbye to the Ponds this season.
"I didn't stop crying for two weeks. Anything was setting me off," Gillan said about finding out.
Fans were shown footage of a sad moment between Amy and Rory, in tears, that showed the two separated by a door.
Unlike many of the other panels, host Chris Hardwick didn't spend much time asking about what was on the horizon for the show's 50th anniversary season. Instead, he asked focused on how upsetting it is that Gillan and Darvill will soon be leaving the show.
They also talk about what the actors will be doing outside the show in the future.
Gillan will be involved with many projects, including "Not Another Happy Ending" and "Oculus."
Darvill will be doing a play in London and a new series called "Broadchurch" with David Tennant and Olivia Colman, written by Chris Chibnall, who did some previous writing on "Doctor Who."
The writer revealed that the show will be doing a Western. They showed a quick clip of it for the audience, and it depicts the Doctor and the Ponds walking into a saloon and ordering tea.
Finally asked to reveal something about the upcoming season, Moffat responded that there will be more dialects than the fans have ever seen in one place and that the weeping angels will be back for sure.
"I don't think we've had a bigger variety of episodes than what we'll be showing this season," Moffat said.
To end the panel, Moffat explained that putting dinosaurs on a spaceship was "the key to success." Then the fans were allowed one last look at new footage that showed the Doctor picking up the Ponds and Rory's dad and landing on a spaceship that had dinosaurs aboard.
There were also a lot of cheeky moments that should be recapped:
- When asked what plots they would like to see on the show, Gillan had a brilliantly funny idea about shrinking the cast down and putting them inside a piano as they try to dodge the hammers. Smith said he would love to explore Atlantis.
- Smith admitted to stealing a small piece off of the TARDIS.
- Admitting there are annoying habits on set, Smith called Gillan out for her nervous lip-picking, and Gillan went back at him for the weird noises he makes when he's trying to "get into the zone." Darvill admitted he likes to stare at Gillan until she notices and freaks out. All of the cast jumped in talking about how they love to make the new actors feel uncomfortable.
- A woman once told Smith that he looked like her hedgehog.
- Smith said the final moment for the Ponds will be a "climactic, fitting, and brilliant" end for his final companions.

Detectives Arrest 7, Seize 50 Pounds of Meth After 11-Month Multi-Agency Investigation
50 pounds of methamphetamine seized in Winter Haven and Bartow.
Published: Wednesday, February 20, 2013 at 12:32 p.m.
Last Modified: Wednesday, February 20, 2013 at 12:32 p.m.
BARTOW | A sign on a Kissingen Avenue mailbox advertises worms, rabbits and farm-fresh eggs.
Next door, Lydia Santiago, a mother of four, discreetly moved her own product, authorities said, selling methamphetamine she bought by the pound in what investigators called a $1 million operation.
Santiago, 38, of Bartow, was arrested Tuesday after an 11-month investigation by a multi-agency team of Polk County detectives. With her cooperation, they arrested six more suspects connected to the drug sales and seized more than $13,000 in cash and 50 pounds of meth.
Sheriff Grady Judd displayed the drugs — some of it wrapped in white packages, but most of it in liquid form in small containers — during a Wednesday news conference. Detectives are trying to trace the meth to suspects who produced and brought it into the county, he said. Two suspects accused of keeping a stash house in Winter Haven are cooperating with investiga-tors.
"We've got your dope, we've got two of your boys," Judd said. "So get ready."
Detectives arrested Santiago after stopping her Ford Expedition on State Road 60 because it had a broken taillight. Her four children sat inside. A detective asked to search her vehicle, her arrest report says, and Santiago responded, "Sure, go ahead. I have nothing."
In her purse, the report says, detectives found about 2 pounds of meth and $8,000 in cash.
Detectives arrested Santiago's boyfriend, Daquon Gunter-Santel, 20, of Lakeland, also seated in the vehicle, on a charge of violating his probation for armed robbery.
Santiago led detectives to her home at 1820 Kissengen Ave. in Bartow, where detectives said they found 5 pounds of marijuana. Through Santiago, detectives arranged to buy 2 pounds of meth from her alleged dealers.
Arturo Sanchez, 22, and Angel Castro, 24, arrived with the meth in their vehicle, authorities said. Detectives arrested them and Santiago's son, Jorge Morales-Vallejo, 23, who was at the home.
Detectives searched a house at 540 Ave. L S.E. in Winter Haven, where they said Castro and Sanchez kept drugs. Detectives seized 46 pounds of meth and two guns from the home.
As part of the investigation, detectives also arrested Jose Torres, 35, of Winter Haven, and Edwin Hall, 61, of Bartow, on charges that include drug possession.
Santiago's house, with Christmas lights on the eaves and dead plants on the porch, was quiet Wednesday.
Maria Armijo, 42, a neighbor, grew used to cars arriving outside the home at odd hours. She heard children play and yell in the road until mid-night.
She wondered about the fate of Santiago's children, now in Department of Children and Families custody.
"I was praying that something needs to happen for the kids," she said. "They're the ones who suffer because of the parents."

Council panel recommends extending bar hours
Published: Wednesday, April 17, 2013 at 3:30 a.m.
Last Modified: Tuesday, April 16, 2013 at 11:49 p.m.
TUSCALOOSA | The City Council's Public Safety Committee approved a proposal to extend the closing hours of the city's bars by 15 minutes.
The request came from the city's University of Alabama Strip Advisory Committee, which said bar owners wanted the extension to prevent patrons from leaving the Strip's bars at the same time each night.
City officials granted the extension but voiced little confidence that it would do much good.
If approved by the City Council, the extension will mean bars can stay open until 2:15 a.m. Tuesday through Friday and 3:15 a.m. on Saturday.
The 2 a.m. Sunday closure will remain unchanged because it is set by state law, officials said.

Stretching Exercises: 6 Yoga Moves That'll Make You Look Younger
Ward off lines and wrinkles by adding one or all six of these anti-aging, super-stretching yoga poses to your workout
Scary thought, huh? What the heck would we do then? The answer: exercise and stretching.
OK, OK, we know this isn't what you wanted to hear, and we're not saying you need to go out and run a marathon to ditch your lines and wrinkles (actually, that might make your face sag even more), but what we are saying, rather what Kimberly Fowler, founder of YAS fitness centers and author of "The No Om Zone" is saying, is that there are "anti-aging yoga poses" you can easily incorporate into your current workout or add to your daily routine in order to help fight the unflattering signs of aging.
What sets these "anti-aging yoga poses" apart from the other hundred or so moves is that they all create an action where your "head goes below your waist," says Fowler. This action causes "blood to rush toward your head," which improves circulation -- especially in your face and head. With improved circulation comes "greater delivery of oxygen and nutrients to the skin," says dermatologist Dr. Jeannette Graf, M.D. Healthy skin cells will help boost collagen production, which will in turn keep your face looking plumper and less wrinkled.
Not to mention that this and other workouts for women also "stimulate lymphatic drainage, which rids the body of waste products," says Graf. Getting rid of waste keeps skin clear and glowing. You also breathe more when doing moves like this (or should be -- please don't hold your breath while holding these poses), which also helps blood flow more rapidly all over your body. This action alone will help your skin produce more collagen. Pretty nifty, eh? What's even more rewarding is that these workout moves, unlike your precious creams, won't cost you a penny. Check out the anti-aging moves you should add to your workout -- now.

Downward facing dog is hands down my favorite move. Some of these are not very good if your have a bad back or neck.

Very interesting, but be careful if you have a preexisting injury and/or pain.

It's not exactly yoga that is anti-aging, but rather more the stretching that forces you to relax and breath, allowing you to clear your mind. I did gymnastics for 15 yrs and I found that stretching for 20minutes a day, with similar moves here, before the yoga fad, helped me reduce stress, even when the pressures of competition was upon me. This should explain for the yoga amateurs why exactly the move helps with anti-aging and also mention that most of these moves are not for those with joint or back problems such as myself. It's like blind faith with this article. You tell me what to do, but why?

I grabbed the walking sticks and went 3 miles on the railtrail today, splits were 15:16, 14:51 and 14:49. This isn't a bad workout for someone who can't run, it's the same workout as a Nordic Track ski machine, but you're out in the fresh air instead of staring at 4 walls. It's amazing how fast 45 minutes of Nordic Walking go by, compared to 30 minutes indoors on the ski machine...lol Push-ups and sit-ups as well.
Ray, your 49'ers are looking strong, should be a good game when they come back East to face the Patriots...
Enjoy life, this ain't a rehearsal...
Rich, good workout. It doesn't sound like you are resting your foot, but we'll hope for the best.
The Pats will eat this new kid Kaepernick alive.
Easy gym workout for me:
Stretching routine (a total of 11 different stretches; takes over half an hour)
10 pushups
10 situps
10 dumbell curls each arm
10 lat pulldowns
10 wrist curls
10 leg presses each leg
10 kickbacks each leg
hip exercises (3 different exercises)
Dark Horse
I'm a dark horse, running on a dark race course.
Rich, good workout.
DH, way to keep it up.
Left leg seems to be healing (problem is with big tendon running up front of foot where it attaches to the shin just above the ankle - 2-3 inches above foot) Couple hours working on the yard yesterday. Little walking. Watch the forty-noodles man handle Drew Brees. It's not clear here that Kaepernick will be starting in 3 weeks. NE better take care of business before then. Should be a good game. Even better, PAC-12 Championship @ Stanford this Friday!
This could be an epic year in Bay Area sports.

The Great Tohoku earthquake made a serious impact on local Japanese traditions and cultures have been preserved for so many years. Zaido is the traditional ritual preserved for over 1300 years. It had faced many difficulties for survival in the history such as fires, theft and hereditary problem. In Zaido ritual, those who dedicate the sacred dance for the gods are called "Noshu" . They must purify themselves religiously by abstaining from meat, which is called "Shojinkessai". Besides avoiding meat, many strict rules are imposed on them. In modern society it is very tough.

What we offer
At IBM you'll gain knowledge and experience like nowhere else. You'll also be challenged and supported to achieve everything you wanted in your career.
But don't just take our word for it. When we asked some of our current graduates what words they felt accurately described working at IBM, there were 3 clear winners: innovative, friendly, flexible.
Follow us
To make sure you get exactly the help and skills you need, we provide targeted training that includes a range of opportunities - from a formal mentoring/shadowing program and career development to peer support and professional development.
Whatever your question or training needs, you'll have some of the best brains in the business to consult: a worldwide collaboration of resources, experience and expertise that will help you achieve what you know you are capable of – and perhaps even more.
There are 3 core elements to the training you'll receive at IBM:
Skills development
Whether you're focussing on business or personal skills development, we have our own dedicated training organisation to help. There are literally hundreds of courses available for you to choose from. And it's not all about sitting in a classroom. You'll have the flexibility to fit your training in around you – with downloadable courses, podcasts and webcasts.
Commercial exposure
One of the most valuable things we can offer you is the opportunity to apply your knowledge in a hands-on, commercial environment, or 'on the job training'. You'll work on real projects, with real clients, and real bottom-line deliverables. But not to worry, your manager, colleagues and mentor will be there to lend their full support, enabling you to gain as much exposure as possible.
In order to achieve your career goals, you need to have the right technical and professional skills, as well as appropriate accreditation and certification for your particular area. We will help you achieve the appropriate certification.
Career development
Your manager is there to manage you on a day-to-day basis and oversee the projects you're working on – but not only that! Your manager is also there to help you guide and manage your career and professional development.
You'll work with your manager to create an Individual Development Plan. This will identify:
- Your aspirations and goals: 'What do I want to do and where do I want to get to?'
- Skills and development needs: 'What do I need to do to get there?'
- Learning activities: 'How can I build the skills, expertise, and experience to get there?'
- Mentoring: 'Who can help me get there?'
You'll review this plan once a year with your manager to ensure your continued career development.

Germany and France remain the motor of the European Union, a prime example of reconciliation between peoples, two countries who preserve European culture – hand in hand with their European partners.
Link underscored the unique nature of the relations linking the two countries and their people.

LEXINGTON, Ky. (WKYT) - After spending weeks at UK Hospital, then being sent to Cardinal Hill Rehabilitation Center, a 12-year-old girl, critically injured in a crash, will be going home Thursday.
Wednesday afternoon, Jaden Jasper's family gave us an update on her recovery and shared with us their reaction, after her father, Jimmy Jasper, was indicted by a grand jury in connection to the crash.
"The family would like to thank the community for their outpouring of support and love for Jaden, and the family continues to pray for and support her father, Jimmy, as he faces the consequences of his actions," Jaden's aunt, Karen Miller, told WKYT Wednesday.
Just one month after the crash, Jaden's family and doctors say they never guessed Jaden would have improved this much. Her aunt even said that the day of the crash they weren't sure if Jaden would survive. They say she did more than survive and thrived.
"I'm just thankful to God, just really grateful," Miller tearfully told us.
She had several injuries to her head, brain, and left eye after the crash.
"It's great to hear that voice and to see her smile," said Miller. "She's smiling a lot more now, and she's still staying very positive."
Police say Jimmy Jasper was driving drunk when their car went through a wooden fence in Somerset. As of Wednesday, an assault charge is pending against him for causing serious injury to his daughter.
"He's continuing to repair and heal and mend and do what he's got to do," said Miller.
The prosecutor's office tells us Jimmy Jasper wasn't directly charged with driving under the influence because the assault charge carried a steeper penalty.
Jasper will answer to the charges on April 25 in Pulaski Circuit Court.
We are told Jaden might need one more minor surgery to correct nerve damage in her left eye. The family says she will continue physical, occupational, and speech therapy at home.

STATELINE, Nev. - Jack Wagner birdied the 18th hole at Edgewood Tahoe Golf Course on Friday afternoon to finish the first round tied with Mark Mulder at the American Century Championship. Both ended the day with 22 points.
The tournament uses the Stableford scoring system, in which a player earns points based on how many strokes it takes to finish a hole. An eagle is worth six points, a birdie is worth three points, par is worth one point, a bogey is worth no points, and a double-bogey takes away two points from your score.
Favorite Tony Romo ended the day with 20 points. The Dallas Cowboys quarterback had a chance to take the lead on 18. Romo had 17 points and was looking at an eagle, but just missed the cup left. He two-putted for birdie.
"Gosh, I thought I made it," Romo said about the putt for eagle. "It just didn't fall.
"I'm only two points back, which is basically half a shot out here but, you know, just didn't play very well today. I haven't played much golf lately but we'll try and get it together for the weekend."
Wager was sitting at 19 points after he parred the 17th hole, a par 3. As he walked from the green to the 18th tee box, he raised both his fists into the air, happy to save par after he overshot the hole by about 30 feet and landed on the fringe.
"I hit pretty good. But must have missed seven or eight putts," Wagner said after coming off of 18. "I guess I grinded it out."
With four holes to go, Mulder sat at 18 points. He started the day on the 10th hole, finishing at nine. His big break came on the sixth hole, where he earned a birdie, leaving him with 21 points. He bogeyed the seventh hole, but earned another point when he parred the eighth hole. He finished the first round with another bogey.
Wagner and Mulder weren't far ahead though, as Ryan Longwell finished the day with 21. Billy Joe Tolliver and Brett Hull, who were paired with Wagner today, finished with 20. Dan Quinn ended Friday at 20 as well, earning a par on 18.
"Sitting at 20 after day one - it was great," Hull said. "You would like to think you have the ability to win, whether the 6 inches between your ears will let you."
Longwell said coming into the tournament, he wanted to finish on Friday with around 20 points.
"I thought it would just put me in the mix going forward," the NFL kicker said. "I've had opening days of 13 and 17 and just kind of always playing catch up. Then you've got to start forcing shots. This course is gettable, but you don't want to force shots."
Longwell compared golfing at the ACC to kicking in an NFL game after his round, noting that the two have situational similarities.
"I think kicking a football probably translates to golf more than any other position these guys play, just because you're standing around, you're thinking about the kick, you're thinking about the shot. You stand over it and pull the trigger," he said. "I think it translates well. I think with all the chaos of 17, it's easy to focus in and just hit the shot. Coming from what I do for a living versus coming from anybody else, we see all these people, you get nervous."

- 4 signs a higher minimum wage is on the way
- Mar 12:
- San Jose minimum wage: A year-old success story

- San Jose minimum wage: Labor and business leaders tout it as a selling point for quality

- Facts about the minimum wage and income inequality
Starting Monday, the minimum wage in San Jose will be $10. Automatic annual increases will be pegged to inflation.
California's minimum wage has been $8 since 2008.
A bill in Congress would raise the national minimum wage, which has been $7.25 since 2009, to $10.10 by 2015 with automatic inflation adjustments.
Most states don't allow individual cities to set their own minimum wages, and only a handful of others have done so: Santa Fe and Albuquerque, N.M.; Washington, D.C.; and San Francisco. The San Francisco minimum wage, adopted in 2003 and also indexed to inflation, is now $10.55, the highest in the nation.
San Jose's minimum wage law applies to most employers in the city and to some outside the city limits as well. Employers that maintain a facility in San Jose or are subject to the city's business tax are required to comply with the ordinance. Employees who perform at least two hours or more of work per week in San Jose, even if their employers are based outside the city limits, are covered by the minimum wage ordinance. The program will be enforced on a complaint-basis, as is the current state minimum wage.

Q What do you do when a relative who plans to make an airline trip dies before the trip can be taken? Does nonrefundable mean nonrefundable?
A When airlines say "nonrefundable fare," they usually mean it. Except when they don't.
Don't get excited. This doesn't mean you'll get your money back if, say, you change your mind about going to (fill-in-the-blank place) because you're worried about (fill-in-the-blank anxiety-inducing issue). Keep in mind, too, that you can usually change your ticket -- for a hefty fee -- and you will also pay the difference between the new fare and the old one.
But in cases of death or an illness that grounds you by doctor's orders, "Most airlines do not want the PR nightmare," said Joe Brancatelli whose "Joe Sent Me" newsletter is the bible for business travelers.
That doesn't mean the airline won't require some documentation or that it won't be difficult about it. But, said George Hobica, founder of AirfareWatchdog.com, you can usually shame an airline into action.
You may recall that in May, Spirit Airlines relented and agreed to refund the money of Jerry Meekins, a terminally ill Vietnam vet whose doctor had told him not to fly. In his apology, Ben Baldanza, the CEO of Spirit, said, "I did not demonstrate the respect or the compassion that I should have, given his medical condition and his service to our country. Therefore I have decided to personally refund Mr. Meekins' airfare, and Spirit Airlines will make a $5,000 contribution, in his name, to the charity of his choice, Wounded Warriors."
There was also the case of British Airlines' refusal to acknowledge a flier's request for a refund after his doctor told him he shouldn't fly because he was having chemo. The man began trying to get a refund in 2007. He died in 2008. His widow took up the cause and, after this column chastised the British for three years of foot-dragging, she got a refund.
Shame aside, be prepared to provide a death certificate (or a doctor's note if it's because of illness), and be firm but polite. You also may be asked to pay a small fee.
Also, try to figure out how the ticket was paid for. American Airlines recently responded to a request for help for a reader whose father had died before he'd had a chance to make an airline trip. It turns out that the father's ticket had been booked using credit card reward points.
That situation pointed out yet another of the many not-so-obvious facets of dealing with finances after a loved one's death: If a loved one dies, you may be able to inherit his or her miles. There may be fees involved, so check with the airline. Those miles do have value for goods or services, and if you are the inheriting individual, you may be able to use them for a celebration of life.
Today's column comes from Catharine Hamm of the Los Angeles Times.

I-85 traffic detoured after fatal crash in Spartanburg County
Published: Wednesday, September 25, 2013 at 10:16 p.m.
Last Modified: Wednesday, September 25, 2013 at 10:16 p.m.
The S.C. Highway Patrol has confirmed that one person is dead after a crash involving an 18-wheeler and two other cars on Interstate 85 in Spartanburg County on Wednesday.
Cpl. Bill Rhyne said the crash was reported about 7:10 p.m. on I-85 south near the 80 mile marker.
Rhyne knew few details of the crash Wednesday night, but said there were multiple injuries.
Troopers set up a detour around the crash, onto Highway 110 to Dewberry Road (frontage road) to Gossett Road and back to the interstate.

First news of the day:
Antoine Vermette is traded to Columbus for goalie Pascal Leclaire and a 2nd round pick.
My take:
This is a bit of a jaw-dropper only because I never thought Murray would actually part with the speedy Vermette, despite his struggles to turn into a regular scorer.
On the one hand, it's tough to see Vermette and his speed leave town but you have to like Murray's aggressiveness in going after a number one goalie. This plugs one huge hole because Leclaire is only 26 and has the potential to be a great goalie despite his problems with injuries.
If Murray can find a way to re-sign Mike Comrie, he has essentially replaced Vermette with a more consistent scorer yet loses something on the penalty kill. Luckily they still have players like Chris Kelly, Mike Fisher and Daniel Alfredsson to continue in that important role.
Leclaire was one of the league's best goalies last year under Ken Hitchcock in Columbus and will get a chance to play here with both Brian Elliott and Alex Auld struggling. He also comes with a cap hit just under 4 million for the next two years, an ideal number for a number one goalie with a lot of potential.
The second round pick is also a great pickup for Murray. Good move.
Also, Filip Kuba has resigned in Ottawa (3 years at 3.75 million per year).
My take:
This is a great contract for Ottawa. I'm not the biggest Kuba fan but those are reasonable numbers for a guy who can play a lot of minutes and provide some offense. I don't think Kuba is the answer for Ottawa's defense woes but there may not be a better option for Murray this summer in free-agency. There is no guarantee Murray can grab a superstar like Jay Bouwmeester so Kuba is a good stop-gap measure for this team.
So far, Murray looks good today.
Now we wait for word on Chris Neil, Christoph Schubert and possibly others.
More updates to follow….

Thursday, Oct. 4, 2012
WASHINGTON (AP) -- If social media is any indication, Mitt Romney may have been the clear winner of last night's debate in Denver.
Twitter says the debate was the most tweeted-about event in U.S. political history. And according to a web analytics firm, there were about 47,000 tweets mentioning Romney and the word "win" or "winner" -- and fewer than 30,000 that mentioned Obama with "win" or "winner."
The reaction to statements by the two candidates was flowing across Twitter, Facebook and other social media outlets long before the debate was over.
And people were also looking to the Internet to shed some light on some of the subjects being discussed. Google says the most commonly searched terms included Simpson-Bowles, the bipartisan fiscal commission Obama appointed, as well as Dodd-Frank, a financial reform law.
And there were a lot of searches for Big Bird. Early in the debate, Romney said he would cut off funding to public broadcasting to help bring down the deficit -- but he added that he liked Big Bird.
Social networks immediately responded, with people posting spoof photos of Big Bird and other Sesame Street characters on Facebook, and even setting up fake Big Bird Twitter accounts.

In short, we're yoga for everyone. I'm a retired carpenter and have friends that do yoga who are tradesmen, doctors, teachers, bartenders - some are thin, some aren't, some are old, some aren't, some are flexible, most aren't. You don't have to be flexible to do yoga! It's truly for anyone who wants to feel better about their bodies, their minds, and their capacity to live life as hard as they want!

Songs by Debut Year:
This show was part of the "2011 Early Summer Tour."
This show was not 'bout the funk, nope, this was closer to Led Zeppelin, Phish-style. Nothing wrong with that.
The venue was kind enough, it sounded GREAT, the band raged, me and my peeps raged, the lawn raged, it was ALL good.
Am I not the only one who wanted to desperately to strangle to death the guy who kept yelling out ''PSYCHO KILLER'' every 2 fucking minutes?
Did it take away from anyone else's enjoyment, cause at least for me during their pauses between verses in Furry Creature... , it really hurt my enjoyment of the song, which, for the first time ever hearing it (not including hearing it at the actual show), I was both blown away and stunned at how awesome a song that was.
Either way, I sincerely hope that asshole was dealt with like Mike was by the Hells' Angels backstage years back (too soon?).
Overall I feel this show was a tail of two sets. The first set was amazing, the only thing I can say was suspect was a not so impressive stash. I did not expect rocky top, or mikes, they were awsome, especially the jammed out weekapaug. Tube was on fire, shy did they end it so fast? A mother and daughter I chatted with before the show had a sign for mule and was really happy they got it. Last, I really liked the curtain, nice smooth, concise.
Set two had some ups but not like,set one. Disease>fire was excelent. Possum was good for the 6th time in last 7 shows I've seen... my highlight was swept away/steep... WHAT a jammed out steep, amazing.
I give it 3.5 great first set, pretty good seccond
anyone know the jewish song they played in the middle of scent of a mule?
Set 1: Teasing Rocky theme right off the bat will get a Philly crowd pretty excited. Rocky Top is then a great way to start a very classic feeling show. The Mike's Song that follows is powerful and gets everyone on their feet. The Hydrogen is definitely the low point of the show. I'm usually pretty forgiving, but this was badly butchered. Weekapaug picks things right up Mike carries it beautifully. Stash is always impressive to me; you always feel it's going to fall off the edge, but they manage to pull it together in time. This is no exception. Tube, as a short fast song, brings everyone's vibes up a bit after the Stash. Leads nicely into a clean sounding Guyute. Guelah Papyrus isn't a song I particularly care for, but it works as a breather before the final four songs of the set. SOAMule is quite fun, you can tell Page is enjoying himself. Cavern and Sloth are a little messy, but forgivable. The Curtain With on the other hand is simply unforgettable demonstrates the simultaneous finesse and creativity of 3.0. Check out the video the guys look confident, but not at all bored. It is easily the most mature version of the song ever played.
Set 2: The DWD that starts the set is not the most interesting, besides for some very crisp playing by Page, but it works. The Free that then emerges is what really gets this set rolling. Both Free and Possum are not songs that I typically care about listening to on recording, but when you're in the audience and it's hot out and everyone's dancing, and everyone's smiling, and you've just made friends with the people standing next to you, that's what Phish is all about. Both are played well, and then we hit BBFCFM. People can say whatever they want about this song, and I agree that musically it feels out of place. But to see how fond Mike is of it makes it all worth it. Seeing him reposition his mic and sit on the stage to belt this out was a testament to his quirkiness, which fuels the entire band in many ways. Swept Away > Steep are pleasant enough as a relaxer before an intense finish. As has been noted, we got a bunch of "this is the final song of the set" teasers, and who could complain about that. Bowie is strong, if not terribly inventive. Julius is raucous and noticeably vibrant in comparison to other recent renditions. Golgi may be one of the oldest songs in the repertoire, but it really pleases as well as ever here. My buddy couldn't get into the show, and the first thing he asked me when he saw me after was "did they play Golgi??" It broke my heart telling him they had. The Fluffhead is then an unexpected treat. It is played well. Throughout the entire show Fishman was noticeably good, but he is really at the top of his game in these last few songs. It's amazing after so many years of playing the same tunes how fresh his drums sound. Some people may have been disappointed with the Joy closer. I think the disappointed people viewed it as a spoiler after a really old school sounding show. For me though it didn't negate anything that had preceded it, it just showed how multifaceted the band has become. Moreover, it happens to be a really nice sounding version. I actually thought it was some of Trey's best guitar work of the night.
Encore: Phish covering my favorite Jimi song yes please! Kuroda had done spectacular work all night, but you can't beat lighting up the stage with these brilliant lyrics. Page sings it with enthusiasm, and Trey plays a faithful, yet distinctive guitar part. Fishman is again on fire, for a song that requires some ferocious drum playing.
On the whole, really fun night. I will note that relistening to this show has been severely hampered by the asshole who shouted "Psycho Killer" throughout the entire show. All I can say is you should be ashamed of yourself. Phish plays for us because they enjoy it, but I can't imagine they were at all amused by your shouts, nor were the people around you and those trying to listen to the recording of the show. Let's all be respectful and enjoy the outstanding music Phish produces absolutely every single time I see them.
First set highlight had to be The Curtain With. Which is almost certainly the best version of this song ever played. Absolutely soars through the summer skies. Hearing this song in 3.0 makes me realize how sloppy it was in 2000.
The DWD lifts off early in the type I section with Fishman playing a cadence that I associate with dancehall. It works into a knotty groove with some Jumping Jack Flash teases (maybe?) before a decent segue into Taste..oh wait never mind, they decide to go with Free instead.
(p)reminds me of the Crosseyed-> Roggae...errr...Twist from 2013. Both cases work pretty well.
Free is Free. The song you most want to hear on the first set so you aren't hearing it in set 2 song 2. It's a pretty damn tight Freenin the beginning though, there's no question why they love playing it in this slot. If you weren't a nerd, you'd think it was the most inspired placement ever. And maybe it is, and we are just jaded and cynical.
It's sing pretty terribly from Treys perspective though. I'm still surprised they never did any "plinko" in Free. Seems like it would fit it perfectly.
This is the second extremely inspired Possum of summer 2011 after the Blossom Possum. This one isnt anywhere near as weird as that one, but it might be better. This Possum comes in fits and starts and crests instead of peaking. The early jamlet is some of the coolest shit ever. Too bad it's buried in Possum and nobody will hear it!
BBFCFM is kind of a weird choice here. This is a strange set as far as overall cohesion goes. But the Individual performances are all wonderful so it's working better now than it did then.
Coming next. The most improbable second set highlight of all time.
Swept>Steep. Steep shows off its new mini-jam, this one going on for an impressive 4 minutes of unbelievable bliss before melting into Bowie.
This Bowie jam is basically Possum for a minute or two right? I like it. The trills come in a weird spot.. But maybe just because it sounds like the Possum Shred is about to come instead? Maybe not. There's a great tease on Bowie that I can't place right now.
I like this show a lot. An underrated summer 2011 gem with two legit Best Evers in the Curtain With and Steep. Along with best of 2011 contenders in Stash, Mikes and Possum.
Lots of jams.
Old School.
It'd take a whole lot to compare to either of those shows...
First of all, I'm all bout the oldskool setlist. Great opener (RockyTop) which I'm pretty sure was
off the cuff after the "Rocky" chant.
Totally stoked to see Guyute and the Sloth in the first set and The Curtain W/ was an awesome set closer, yes, my girl leaned over and was like " Is that it?" and I got to say, "Naaaa Babe, That was just the first set honey..."
"Free" was the energy booster of the 2nd set. Always a bonus.
BBFCFM sucks ass. Doesnt sound or feel like phish, I hate it. Belongs at a Pantera show.
Lots of ups and downs, overall a 6/10.
I want more Page. The dude carries shows through funkytown.
Nice changeup closing on Joy. It was the one song my girl was chasing and it made the show for her.
c u at sb9.
First set was really solid I thought..Once Mike's was played I said to my brother in law @whatsupguyute "It's gonna be a good show"...Mikes's Groove was nothing out of the ordinary...but always a pleasure to hear at a show...Stash got a little dark at times..but a good version none the less...SOAM was a real treat...Curtain with was the highlight of the first set, if not the whole show...played tightly and beautifully...my first curtain...couldn't have been happier..especially when Trey started playing the notes to the "With" part...great set closer...
Set II...as mentioned above was the set that just didn't seem to end...everytime a song was played that you thought was going to end the set..another song would come along...DWD..standard opener and worked nicely into Free..Possum...pretty standard for this tour..but I'll never hate on a possum...BBFCFM was played with Gordo sitting down and Trey reaching up for his mic...Swept Away>Steep was a surprising selection...David Bowie we thought was going to close..then came Julius...which we really thought was going to close..Then Fluffhead...ok this has to be the last song...nope...Joy...overall second set was very enjoyable and I thought worked really well with the first set...old school style...Bold as Love...thank you Page...
My first show at Camden in '09 was special - so I had high hopes heading back to the waterfront venue.
Lot was rowdy and darker than '09 from my recollection. Lots of balloons and hissing. Kind of a generally dark vibe. I was also feeling pretty ill, and tried to power through.
Set I opened with Rocky Top after Trey teased something or other. Fun little diddy to open up. Mike's Groove was awesome in the two hole and it was great to get hydrogen in the middle, even if it wasn't that well played.
'Paug on the other hand was awesome and was the best version I'd heard thus far. Trey was on fire in a sort of sloppy fun way.
Stash after a Mike's Groove? Yea you can throw me that anytime. This was a decent version, but I didn't think it was the best.
Tube was short and sweet (and funky!) >
Guyute was nice and I caught it same spot back in '09. Fun old school feel to this set.
Guelah! sweet! Keep it old school. Great song, good version.
SOAM...man this is old school for real! This was fun to catch live for the first time. It popped up in a good spot.
Cavern rocked per usual.
The Sloth! Awesome, despite botched intro. Italian spaghetti!
The Curtain With was the absolute show highlight. This one is up there with the best versions ever played for my money. The actual song was not 100% tight, but the With jam was sublime. When they play it like this it certainly rivals the Rebas of the world. Seek it out. This is a canonical version.
Overall Set I: This was a great set I. Great songs. Old school (mike's, hydro, scent, guyute, curtain) rare oldies (sloth, guelah) and a canonical jam in the With.
I had high hopes for set II (although I was still under the weather). My crew wanted to get into the pav, so feverishly I agreed to go down and just hop the back row of seats and make a run for it. It worked for me, and a few of the others. I don't get doing that when you end up being stuck at different areas of the venue etc. but whatever.
Set II opened fittingly for me with DWD - as I was dying at this point. This was a good version and pretty strong jam. Not super long as they dropped into Free (again paired together, saw the same thing at Bethel).
Free was typical.
Possum was actually atypical and contained some good slightly off bends from Trey that added some tension.
BBFCFM was fun. They were all switching places and sitting down in between the big noisy segments, which was neat to see (ok I was happy to be in pav for that!)
Swept Away -> Steep was a jam highlight!? as Steep contained a churning dark outro jam, super cool and not sure why this isn't annotated above.
David Bowie was nice, but nondescript and sort of formulaic. It contained the typical cool jam, but wasn't really mind blowing.
Julius was ok. I wasn't really feeling it.
Golgi was similarly ok, but not what I wanted.
Fluffhead capped off a sort of uneventful set and they tacked on Joy for good measure.
Overall Set II: Uneven and not a ton of jamming.I'd check out the jam out of Steep for a cool minute or two, otherwise, pretty forgettable.
Overall: Good first set, one great jam in Curtain With, and not much else in terms of take home value. Oh yea, and my buddy killed his car battery on the lot playing music so we were stuck there for like at least 2 hours post show before our neighbor kindly jumped us. So personal illness + that definitely puts a damper on my show experience. Objectively, the music was still mediocre.
2.25/5 I've seen/heard better, but snag that Curtain With.

School leaders from across Mississippi are in Meridian this week to discuss what to do about under-performing schools. Interim state superintendent John Jordan is among them.
For Mississippi schools, the former Statewide Accountability Rating System will soon be completely replaced.
"We used to have that old rating system where five was the best school district and one was the poor performing school district," said Jordan.
Under the new system, levels are non-existent. Schools and districts will start with a blank slate. They will then earn classifications reflecting their performances.
"We now have a system, that's a 7-step system, that goes from a star school to a failing school and various ranks in between that," said Jordan.
The old rating system used to just rank school districts. Once November rolls around shedding light on the new system, individual schools, as well as entire school districts, will be ranked.
"But the key point of that is that we are now rating individual schools in the state of Mississippi on a system that we think is very easy to explain and understand by the community," said Jordan.
Jordan said the new rating system was developed because education leaders found that some low-performing schools were a part of a level five school district. He also said it the new system should instill competition among the schools.
"We also see it as a means of competition," said Jordan. "We have to instill competition in public schools in the state of Mississippi. The whole system that we work on in our great country is based on competition and schools should compete as well."
Those who developed the new statewide accountability rating system said it will allow Mississippi schools to see how they compare to other schools across the country.
The state department of education oversees 152 school districts. That includes more than a thousand schools and half a million students.

CEE Morning Briefing: PKN Reports 4Q Loss, Czechs to Sell Bonds
- Local/GMT
- 0700/0600 PKN Orlen 4Q earnings
- 1200/1100 Czechs auction three-year, nine-year bonds
- N/A Unipetrol 4Q earnings
A leading regional refiner Wednesday reported a fourth-quarter net loss driven by charges in the refining segment, while in Prague the Czech finance ministry will sell two treasury-bond issues.
Polish refiner PKN Orlen SA reported a 276 million zloty ($88 million) fourth-quarter net loss compared to a 411 million zloty loss expected by analysts. The company wrote down the value of its Czech refining assets and the value of its crude-oil reserves.
The net loss was alleviated by a decrease in the value of PKN Orlen's foreign-currency denominated debt as the zloty has strengthened.
Separately, the Czech Finance Ministry will hold its first auction of a new three-year bond Wednesday. Demand is currently solid for short-term paper and the issue is expected to be well subscribed, said Dalimil Vyskovsky, a fixed-income trader at Komercni Banka.
The ministry will also reopen a 2022 bond issue that was first issued in 2007. The ministry last offered it in 2009.
In the two auctions the ministry is offering between 5 billion koruna ($259.4 million) and 9 billion koruna in debt.
