Middle English: from Anglo-Norman French, from Latin spiritus 'breath, spirit', from spirare 'breathe'.
Our word spirit is based on Latin spiritus 'breath or spirit', from spirare 'to breathe'—the ancient Romans believed that the human soul had been 'breathed' into the body—the image is the same as 'the breath of life'. The sense 'strong distilled alcoholic drink' comes from the use in alchemy of spirit to mean 'a liquid essence extracted from some substance'. People sometimes say the spirit is willing but the flesh is weak when they have good intentions but yield to temptation and fail to live up to them. The source is the New Testament, where Jesus uses the phrase after finding his disciples asleep in the Garden of Gethsemane despite telling them that they should stay awake. Spirare forms the basis of numerous English words including aspire (mid 16th century) from adspirare 'to breath upon, seek to reach'; conspire (Late Middle English) from conspirare 'to breath together, agree'; expire (late 16th century) 'to breath out'; inspire (Late Middle English) 'breath into' from the idea that a divine or outside power has inspired you; and perspire (mid 17th century) 'to breath through'; and transpire (Late Middle English) 'breath across. In English spirit was shortened to sprite (Middle English) which in turn developed sprightly (late 16th century).

An adjective desribing one or more people who intend on leaving a particular place. Audi's model 5000 sedan was plagued with a problem charcterized by unintended acceleration, in which drivers' complained that the vehicle lurched forward when their foot was on the brake pedal. In reality, it turned out that the acclerator and brake pedals were unusually close together. This is why Audi 5000 is associated with leaving quickly, because that is what this vehicle did when some old fartknocker hit the gas instead of the brakes.

Rap culture sign off in which the recording artist is being braggadocious about what he/she is driving when they leave the scene. The Audi 5000 was a popular luxury car of the time.

HOUSTON -- Three nights after leading a stirring fourth-quarter comeback, Stephen Curry could do nothing but tightly grip the towel draped over his shoulders as the clock ticked down. Unlike the lowly Toronto Raptors, the rebuilt Houston Rockets weren't about to let the Warriors back into a game they gave away early.
The Warriors shot poorly and did little to protect the paint Friday, falling 105-83 to the Rockets on the first night of a three-game road trip. After falling behind by 27 at one point Tuesday night, the Warriors let the Rockets take a 19-point first-quarter lead Friday and trailed 61-37 at the half. They never got the deficit back under 15 points.
"We got outworked; (the Rockets) played with more force, and it set the tone the rest of the way," Warriors coach Mark Jackson said. "We've certainly got to be better. The Toronto Raptors, they're a team that we're good enough to battle back and win. Against these teams in the Western Conference, these good teams, you dig yourself a hole and it's awfully tough."
Lesson learned?
"I think we learned the lesson before," Jackson said flatly. "You've got to do something about it, and we did not."
The Warriors shot a season-low 36 percent and misfired on 14 of 16 3-point attempts. Jackson was disheartened by the 22 turnovers, and Curry pointed out that the poor shooting carried over on the defensive end.
"You have a tendency to dwell on that as opposed to getting stops and letting that lead to easy offense," said Curry, who had 22 points through three but sat the entire fourth quarter. "We gave them extra possessions, especially early in the game to get their confidence going."
The Rockets paraded through the paint in the first half, with Terrence Jones repeatedly getting the better of David Lee, and Dwight Howard taking advantage of a Warriors front line that was ravaged by foul trouble. Andrew Bogut picked up two fouls in the first 8:28 and had five before the third quarter was even half over. Backup Jermaine O'Neal had two fouls after just 47 seconds of guarding Howard.
The first-year Rocket is notoriously bad from the charity stripe, but Howard had more free throws (five) in the first quarter than the Warriors had field goals (four). Howard already had a double-double early in the second quarter and shook off Jackson's third-quarter Hack-A-Howard strategy, finishing with 22 points and 18 rebounds.
The Warriors gave up 54 points in the paint and 25 more at the free throw line. The somber locker room housed plenty of players staring at ugly individual stat lines. Klay Thompson had five points on 2-of-10 shooting, and Harrison Barnes was just 5 for 16 from the field. Bogut had four points and five rebounds opposite of Howard, and Lee managed just seven shots and 11 points on a quiet night. The normally sharpshooting Warriors failed to make at least five 3-pointers for the first time this season, and also set a new low in assists (10).
"We've just been bad," Jackson said. "Across the board."
For the second straight game, the problems were acute early, but Curry said "there's no magic formula" for fixing the first-half struggles. "We know what it is," he said. "Play harder, play better, especially on the road."
That last word provides one saving grace for the Warriors, who have no time to dwell on the ugly loss. To a man, the Warriors said they're glad they'll be back on a court Saturday night in Memphis. Jackson was hopeful his group would write a different story after the next tipoff.
"We're well aware of what took place in that first half," he said. "We dug ourselves another hole. We've got to be better."
"We want to stay true to the process," Jackson said. "It's important to make sure that he's 100 percent, because what we don't want is a setback."
The tandem of Stephen Curry and Klay Thompson combined for 27 points in Friday's loss, a season low when both are in the lineup. Here's a look at their stats:

There are really no PROs or Cons to drive in latch types, other than they are not used very much. I would suggest sticking with square or round corner latch types unless your doors require the drive in type.
The door levers i bought came with the option of using "drive in latches". I'm wondering what are the pros or cons of using "drive in latches"?

Visual-inspection systems
Visual-inspection systems, such as vision sensors, smart cameras, and camera-based vision systems, confirm the presence and position of caps, lids, and labels and check for particulates, label accuracy, and surface imperfections.For the most demanding applications, full-scale machine-vision systems provide the highest level of programming flexibility. Although machine-vision systems are still the most complex to set up and configure, software and operator interfaces streamline configuration and simplify operation.
In the mid-range of functionality and ease of use, smart cameras combine a camera with onboard intelligence and an array of software tools that offer considerable flexibility for application programming.
The simplest and easiest to implement system, the vision sensor, also combines a camera with onboard intelligence and is optimized for optical-inspection tasks. A vision sensor can be taught to compare a captured image to a good sample and/or check for specific defects. Its capabilities are sufficient for many packaging-line inspection tasks (1).
Software is designed to be intuitive even for users who are not vision experts, said Jim Anderson, product manager for machine vision at SICK, in a company publication (1) (vision sensors, smart cameras, vision systems, SICK).
For pharmaceutical packaging applications, one robot-supported inspection machine handles almost any cylindrical container with a volume between 1 mL and 100 mL, including vials, syringes, ampuls, cartridges, cylindrical blow–fill–seal containers, and inhalers. The six-axis robot arm moves up to 15 containers per minute through three machine-vision inspection stations equipped with different camera, lighting, and container positioning options. In some cases, more than one inspection is performed at a single station. The system can check for the following: particles from a bottom or side view; proper cap application; dirt or cracks at the shoulder of the container; scratches, cracks, or chips on the neck, shoulder, or sidewall; cracks at the heel; flaws on the bottom of the container or heavy particles in suspension; and particle or cosmetic defects. The compact system is compatible with isolator enclosures and particularly well-suited for toxic or highly potent products (Seidenader RIM inspector with robot arm from Stäubli Group, Körber Medipack).
Another multiple-camera, machine-vision system examines tablets from six angles to confirm surface quality. Laser-slit lighting and three-dimensional images improve identification of chips and embossing flaws, while color cameras and filters detect subtle color variations. Simulation modes shorten set-up time, and fewer, lighter change parts reduce changeover time. The system runs up to about 5800 tablets per min (Viswill TVIS-EX3-CD visual inspection system for tablets, Daiichi Jitsugyo America).
A print quality inspection and barcode verifier for thermal and thermal-transfer printed labels performs a variety of inspections. Functions include master-to-label comparison (i.e., blemish detection), one- and two-dimensional barcode verification and validation, optical character recognition, optical character verification, field matching, and number/data validation. Additionally, the software includes automatic setup for quick label and field identification, job retrieval for recall of previous runs, and a robust alarm matrix for user-defined input/output interaction with peripheral devices. The rugged design of the read head and mounting plate simplify integration with thermal label printers and other slow-speed roll printing applications. The system is 21 CFR Part 11 compliant-ready, offering multiple security levels and comprehensive data management and reporting options (LVS 7500 inspection system, Label Vision Systems).

This year's seminar, Ministering to Victims of Trauma and Abuse, was comprised of speakers providing information on several different perspectives of this important issue.
Each year, the seminar is geared to address issues facing all clergy, spiritual leaders, chaplains and visitation team members. Speakers presented the perspective of helping and encouraging those ministering to victims and building awareness of what trauma and abuse entails for both children and adults.
Guest speakers included: Dr. Chuck Sandstrom, who being a victim of violence himself, spoke about forgiveness as a way of life, living with joy and purpose, finding the 'ability;' in disability, and positively redefining oneself through enterprise; Auburn Sandstrom, Dr. Sandstrom's wife, spoke from her own experience on how the trauma affects the family and community and about the practical and emotional challenges of the healing process; Wendy Johnson, Director of Victims Assistance, Portage County Prosecutor's Office, who spoke about what the non-lawyer victim advocates' roles are and what the advocate can tell and not tell a victim; Lucy Wagener, Executive Director of The Children's Advocacy Center, who spoke about child abuse in Portage County, what to look out for and what The Children's Advocacy Center can offer our community; and Willa Stamper, a member of Freedom Congregational Church, shared about her ministry of making stuffed bears and bunnies, called 'anoonies,' that are provided to children through The Children's Advocacy Center.
"We hold this annual seminar to further educate our associate chaplains, clergy members and spiritual leaders of the community," stated Reverend Jim Melick, Director of Pastoral Care. "These are important topics that affect the Portage County community, and it is crucial in our roles to know how to appropriately respond and minister to victims" This year, 61 members of the Portage County clergy and spiritual leaders attended the event.
If you would like more information about volunteering for the Department of Pastoral Care at Robinson Memorial Hospital, please call (330) 297-2445.

SONOMA -- Jimmie Johnson not only enters this weekend's Toyota/Save Mart 350 leading the NASCAR Sprint Cup standings, but also on a four-year streak of finishing in the top 10 at Sonoma Raceway.
Such a streak seemed unlikely considering how Johnson's Cup career began at Sonoma, when from 2002 to 2008, he finished outside the top 10 five times.
In 2007, his car and that of Hendrick Motorsports teammate Jeff Gordon failed inspection before the first practice and he had to start the race 42nd out of 43 cars.
Johnson put all his Sonoma troubles behind him in 2010, when he took over the lead from Marcos Ambrose late in the race and went on to his first road course victory in the Cup series.
"That was huge box to check for me. I was so bad at it, and we couldn't understand why, especially with my background," Johnson said of road course racing. "Once my brain grasped it and I got in the right spot mentally, I was able to make it work. It was a big day for me."
Johnson started the year with a win at the Daytona 500 and has only finished outside the top 10 only six times in the first 15 races. He also has victories this season in Martinsville in April and at Pocono two weeks ago.
Johnson and his teammates all struggled last week at Michigan, as he finished 28th, Dale Earnhardt Jr. was 37th, Kasey Kahne was 38th and Gordon was 39th.
"All four of us stunk," Johnson said. "My tire issue seemed to be a little different from Kasey's. Kasey's blew out, mine, I think I ran something over the way it went down. . . . It was just one of those days where we couldn't get out of there fast enough."

Texas A&M – Corpus Christi Baseball head coach Scott Malone was one of the top players in TCU Horned Frogs Baseball history during his career. He will be recognized for his achievements this fall with his induction into the 44th class of the TCU Letterman's Association Hall of Fame, it was announced recently.
"It's an exciting honor, it will be a really fun weekend to get back to TCU," said Malone. "It's something I don't get to do very often just because of the nature of our business, but to get back there in the fall during a football weekend will be exciting.
"You talk about TCU, that's where I grew up, where I made my way as a baseball player and kind of put myself on the map. I had a successful three years, so I'm really excited, it means a lot to me."
Over the span of three seasons, Malone led the Horned Frogs in batting each year, and was the top hitter among all players in the prestigious Southwest Conference the final two campaigns. To this day, the Islanders head coach is still the only player in TCU Baseball history to earn Academic All-America honors, doing so during his junior season in Fort Worth.
Playing just three seasons for the Horned Frogs, Malone was named All-Southwest Conference each year, first as a utility player, then an outfielder and finally as a first baseman during his final year.
He found out about his selection during the baseball season while on a road trip at Baylor, one of his old foes in the SWC. After finding out, he quickly recalled those that played a key part in his collegiate career.
"When I first found out, my initial phone calls were to my former coach and three or four former players, guys who helped me become the player that I was," said Malone. "So it's already helped me rekindle some of those old friendships in talking to those guys."
Drafted in the 9th round of the Major League Baseball Draft by the Texas Rangers after his junior season at TCU, Malone left an indelible mark on the Horned Frogs program, not just as a baseball player, but also as one of the best athletes in the history of the athletic department.
"I think the first thing you start thinking about is the magnitude of that phone call," said Malone. "When they start talking about some of the other athletes that are going in, when you hear LT, LaDainian Tomlinson, is going in, you think about the legacy that he had at TCU, on college football in general and the NFL player he became. You start thinking, 'Man, I'm going to be at this event going into the TCU Hall of Fame the same day he is.' It really puts it into perspective for you."
Malone has continued to keep tabs on his former team, and he feels a special bond between the present day program and the program he was part of from 1990-1992 because of all the school does to remember their former greats.
"Being in baseball, you follow that TCU program," said Malone. "We've played them here, that place is at such a high level now having gone to the College World Series, to just kind of think back over the last 20 years of growth at that program and to feel like you are a part of it back in the early days really means a lot.
"The way they continue to recognize some of their alumni; to see your name, whether it is in the media guide, at the baseball stadium, now going into the Hall of Fame, it really means a lot to see your name still floated around that program."
He will travel back to TCU for the ceremony and honorary banquet on Thursday, Oct. 4, and will also be recognized before the Horned Frogs game against Iowa State on Oct. 6, at Amon G. Carter Stadium.

It's almost spring, but it feels a lot like winter in northern New England.
A winter storm was dumping snow across the region Tuesday, with some areas expected to get more than a foot the day before the official start of spring.
Hundreds of schools were closed and highway speeds were lowered in Maine, New Hampshire and Vermont.
The forecasts call for 10 to 18 inches around Montpelier, 7 to 11 inches in Concord, N.H., and between 6 and 16 inches across all of Maine, where the heaviest snows were expected to fall in the overnight hours into Wednesday.
The snow should begin melting this week as temperatures rise into the mid- to upper 30s.

AP-OR--Stunned Woman Dies/149

Armed Ore. woman dies after stun gun is used
BORING, Ore. (AP) — A Clackamas County sheriff's spokesman says an armed, 87-year-old woman who had reportedly been threatening to shoot a man installing a water line was shocked with a stun gun and died a short time later.
Detective Jim Strovink says two deputies responded Thursday afternoon to a report of a woman waving a handgun and threatening a man excavating a trench at the Big Valley Woods Mobile Home Park in Boring, Ore.
The deputies ordered the woman to drop the gun. The spokesman says she set it down briefly but quickly grabbed it again. At that point, one deputy fired his Taser and she fell unconscious. Although they started cardiopulmonary resuscitation, she died about an hour later at a hospital. The woman was not immediately identified late Thursday.
The deputies will be placed on administrative leave.

MIAMI -- Once upon a Friday, the A's blew a four-run lead.
It was bound to happen; they hadn't done that all season.
That Oakland came back to score a 9-5 victory over the Miami Marlins on Friday night says as much about the A's relentless pursuit of wins as anything could.
To get back into a tie, the A's needed a brilliant eighth-inning dash from Stephen Vogt to score from first base on what was ruled a triple for Josh Reddick. It should have been called a double, and there was doubt Vogt would score, but a lack of blazing speed doesn't keep the catcher from being a smart base runner.
"That was great heads-up baserunning from Vogt," teammate Josh Donaldson said. "He got a nice jump, and he didn't assume he'd be held up at third. A great run.''
The ball got away from the diving Marcell Ozuna in left field, and when that happened, Vogt didn't break stride when third base coach Mike Gallego waved him around for the tying run on what Reddick called "the shortest triple in major league history.''
Someone who does have blazing speed, Coco Crisp, employed it for the go-ahead run in the ninth. Crisp, racing from second on Yoenis Cespedes' single, was able to slide around catcher Jeff Mathis, jump up and call himself safe.
"I came up that way because I knew I was safe,'' Crisp said. "No doubt.''
Home plate umpire Marty Foster disagreed, but the call went to replay review, and the A's got the reversal.
"The momentum shifter there was Coco scoring,'' Reddick said. "He put a great slide on a guy (Giancarlo Stanton) who has a cannon for an arm in the outfield. After that, (the momentum) just kept going.''
Before the inning was over, Donaldson would chip in with a warning track fly ball to score a run, then Vogt and Reddick would add RBI singles.
"We don't sit in the dugout saying we're going to score four,'' Reddick said. "We just want to score that one.''
After that, it was a breeze. Sean Doolittle came out of the bullpen. It was another 1-2-3 inning for Doolittle, who has retired 63 of the last 67 batters he's faced, a performance Reddick called "unhumanly.''
The A's had other big moments in this one. Cespedes picked up his major league-leading 10th outfield assist by throwing out Stanton at the plate. And catcher Derek Norris, back in the lineup for the first time since Sunday, had to come off the field after suffering back spasms.
That latter was an ill omen, because Norris doesn't ever come out of games if he can avoid it. But he tried to play through back spasms last year and it wound up putting him on the shelf. This time, he was going to be smart about it.
"This one's nothing like last year,'' Norris said. "I want to play, but the last time I tried to muscle my way through back spasms I made it 100 times worse.''
Now the A's are hoping Norris, who wasn't down to start Saturday anyway, will be back to catch the series finale Sunday when the Marlins throw a left-handed starter, Andrew Heaney, at Oakland.
The A's seemed to be en route to an easy 49th win of the season (against 30 losses) when they scored twice in the first and led 4-0 after five innings. After all, they hadn't lost a four-run lead all year.
But starter Jesse Chavez gave up four consecutive hits in the sixth when "I started to get a little tired, I guess.''
"I was getting a little flat with pitches,'' Chavez said. "What the offense did shows what kind of character this team has. If we have a bad inning, we don't let it affect the way the rest of the game is going to play out. And I think that's the big key for us.''

PARKERSBURG - While the Christmas holiday is now past, area residents can still feel the holiday spirit for a few more days as holiday light displays in Parkersburg and Belpre continue through the end of the year.
Parkersburg's Holiday in the Park program at City Park and Southwood Park began Nov. 17, while the Belpre Holiday Lights Festival opened Nov. 24 with its annual parade.
The exhibits will be on display nightly through the end of Dec. 31 to celebrate the Christmas season.

A variety of holiday themes and scenes are featured in the annual Belpre Holiday Lights Festival at Civitan Park and throughout Belpre through the end of the season.
Holiday in the Park is a collection of Christmas lighting exhibits at City Park and Southwood Park. The displays are sponsored by local groups, individuals and businesses featuring holiday characters and others. Approximately 100,000 people visit the park during the Holiday in the Park program, according to organizers.
The annual Belpre Holiday Lights Festival began unofficially on the night before Thanksgiving, as the holiday lights were turned on for the first time of the season. Belpre is filled with dozens of light displays on exhibit throughout the city, its parks and neighborhoods through the end of the holiday season.
On Saturday evening, Vienna resident Cyndi Allen was visiting Civitan Park in Belpre with her nephews, Jagr Gregg, 10, and Pierson Gregg, 7, also of Vienna, on their second visit this season to see the lights.
"We came over a couple of weeks ago (to see the lights in Belpre) and they called me this morning because they loved these lights over here. They begged me to come back over, so we decided to come back," Allen said.
"I think they're awesome," Jagr said of the lights.
"They're really cool," Pierson agreed.
The boys and their aunt had also visited the light display at City Park in Parkersburg, but all three said the Belpre lights were their favorites. They liked the Parkersburg lights, "but not as much as these, though," Jagr said of the Belpre displays.
Allen said visiting the lights has become a holiday tradition for the family, with this being the fourth year for the visits.
"We come every year," she said.
Allen said she has also visited the lights of Oglebay Park in Wheeling and considers the Belpre display a close second to that exhibit.
"I've been to Wheeling several times and some of these are just as good as the Wheeling park lights, just on a smaller scale. They're every bit as creative," she said.
While the Gregg brothers liked Belpre's lights more, the City Park lights in Parkersburg also had their fans.
Parkersburg resident Jason Dickel said his family was making its third visit to see the City Park lights up close on Sunday, with plans to take a second horse-drawn carriage ride through the lights - a feature unique to Holiday in the Park for the past few years.
That doesn't count the number of times they've just driven through City Park to view the lights, Dickel said, estimating about a half-dozen such trips have been made so far by the family.
"We like the choo-choo trains, she is a huge choo-choo fan," Dickel said as he held his 2-and-a-half-year-old daughter Liliah. "She loves the choo-choo trains... She also loves to ride the horsies," he said, referring to the rides offered by Hardly Able Carriage Co. since the display opened in November, first with covered wagons and then with carriages as the holiday approached.
Dickel said visiting the lights is an activity the whole family can do together and enjoy.
"I've got my whole family here, my two sisters, my mom and we've got five little kids," he said.
The family has also been to see Belpre's lights but said the City Park lights were their favorite, Dickel said.

It's a big question looming over South Carolina's governor. Forty percent of contributions for his re-election campaign are from outside the state. News 12 is on your side, posing the question to Sanford as he cycles out of Aiken.
Will he or won't he? South Carolina Governor Mark Sanford is facing the growing speculation that he's racing for the White House. So what's his take on it?
"I'm a wannabe biker, or cyclist," Sanford said.
Surrounded by hundreds of bikers ready to ride, South Carolina Governor Mark Sanford high steps around speculation that he's running for the White House in 2008.
"Absolutely not. I don't know who started that rumor, but they had a lot of fun with it," Sanford said.
Sanford says he's focused on the Palmetto State issues, including this heart stopping stat: South Carolina ranks in the top ten nationally for obesity, heart disease and diabetes.
"In too many cases, we are couch potatoes," Sanford said. "As South Carolinians, we need to get out and get a bit more active than we do right now. There are a thousand different things we could do."
Nearly 300 cyclists gathered in Aiken, joining Governor Sanford for a sixty-mile ride to Columbia.
"As a kid, it got me places, and then I just grew to love it and continued the enjoyment throughout my life," said Tom Rishforth, Piedmont, SC.
"It does great for the cardiovascular system, makes you feel better about yourself. It's great for the heart, enjoyment and gives you energy for life, too," said Robin Floyd, Greer, SC.
Sanford's wife and three kids came along for the ride. But Governor Sanford took the lead, taking just two breaks en route to the capital.
The governor pulled into Columbia at about 1:30 Sunday afternoon. He hosted a lunch at the Governor's Mansion for everyone who also made the trip.

A deputy stopped a car in Edwards March 9 after it ran a stop sign without even tapping its brakes.
The car smelled of alcohol when the officer talked to the 34-year-old man and asked him to step out of the car for further questioning. The man said he had two beers with dinner and exhibited other signs of intoxication as he walked.
The officer then spoke with the 24-year-old woman in the car. She said she had two beers with dinner and the man had four rum and cokes.
The man was arrested for further investigation of driving under the influence of alcohol. He refused all testing and said he already had two DUIs in Ohio. He was cited for failing to stop at a stop sign and DUI.
A deputy was transporting a prisoner to jail in Eagle on March 10 when he saw a truck pulling a trailer and weaving out of its lane on Interstate 70. An SUV tried to pass the truck and had to swerve out of the way when the truck weaved halfway into the left lane.
The deputy radioed for another officer to stop the pickup since he had a prisoner. No other officer was immediately available, however. The deputy decided to stop the truck on his own since the pickup was such a traffic hazard.
The officer contacted the 39-year-old driver near Wolcott. The man's eyes were halfway shut and he had a bruise and a cut on his face. The car smelled of alcohol and the deputy asked the man how much he had to drink and what happened to his face. The man said he drank "too much to make it home" and that he got into a fight in Red Cliff.
At that time, another officer arrived to take over and the man was arrested for DUI and failing to drive in a single lane.
A deputy stopped a car for speeding in Eagle-Vail March 10 and smelled alcohol when he talked to the 25-year-old driver.
The man exhibited other signs of intoxication and had two other men in the car with him. He said he'd had two beers and agreed to perform voluntary roadside sobriety tests. He failed the roadsides and was arrested for further investigation of DUI.
The man's license plates turned out to be expired and when officers searched the car they found open beer cans. The man was jailed for DUI, displaying expired tags and speeding. His license was revoked.
A 43-year-old woman called 911 in Edwards March 11 to report another driver who ran her off the road when she tried to confront him about his driving.
She said she stopped at the Edwards exit to ask the man why he was driving so erratically and he drove at her on the sidewalk. She got back in her car and followed him into a business center. The woman told deputies the man started chasing her at that point and she drove off.
Officers quickly found the car at the business center and the suspect came out of a head shop when he saw them checking out his car. The 26-year-old man said the woman cut him off on I-70 and he flipped her off. The woman was also getting off at Edwards and she stopped in the middle of the exit ramp, got out of her car and approached him. He didn't want to talk to her, so he drove on the sidewalk to get around her. He denied driving at the woman but he said he flipped her off again. Then he saw the woman following him so he drove to his friend's shop.
The deputies found the man's license was canceled for an unpaid ticked. He was cited for driving under restraint and warned for disorderly conduct.
Deputies received a call on March 13 that a 61-year-old man was yelling and ranting in the Eagle County Building. He said the county wasn't helping him so he was going to shoot a dog.
Deputies contacted the man at his home in Gypsum. He wouldn't speak to the officers, so his wife talked to them. She said he was bitten by the neighbor's German Shepherd a couple years ago and he has been trying to get the dog removed ever since. He saw a strange dog wander into the yard that day and believed the German Shepherd attacked it.
A man who saw the incident and knew the German Shepherd's owner said a dog did come into the yard but wasn't attacked. He said they played a while and then the strange dog "freaked out" a bit when it couldn't find a way out of the yard.
Deputies told the 61-year-old's wife that they would contact Eagle County Animal Services and the dog owner to make sure they knew about the incident. They said their primary concern in this case, however, is her husband's behavior. She said she understood and would speak with him about it.
A deputy was conducting a traffic stop for speeding on U.S. Highway 6 in Avon March 15 when a truck drove by at an excessive speed. The officer cut off the initial stop and pursued the truck.
She followed the truck into a parking lot, where it continued at a high speed, as if attempting to flee. The driver eventually stopped and the officer contacted the 51-year-old man.
The deputy smelled alcohol and the man was visibly intoxicated. He said he only had one beer with dinner. The deputy asked him to step out of the car and the man got out with his hands behind him, anticipating that he would be handcuffed. The officer said she was only examining his ability to safely operate a motor vehicle. The man said, "Let's cut the BS. I've had too much to drink."
The man agreed to voluntary sobriety tests and failed. He was arrested for further investigation of DUI.
On the way to jail, he told the deputy, "You're doing me a favor."
He was jailed for DUI, careless driving, failure to signal a turn and failure to provide proof of insurance. His license was seized.
A deputy was driving by the dog park on Miller Ranch Road in Edwards March 16 and saw a red sedan had rolled down the hill and crashed through the fence. A woman stood nearby.
The 64-year-old lady said her dogs were so excited when they arrived that she let them out and forgot to put the car in park. When she saw it roll, she was too far away to stop it.
There was heavy damage to the car and a 12-foot section of fence was broken.
A man called deputies from a Beaver Creek parking garage on March 17 when he returned from a day of skiing and caught a 21-year-old man kicking his car.
Officers observed dents and marks on all the doors and the front door handle was broken off. The 21-year-old said he thought the car was his dad's and got upset when his key wouldn't unlock the door. He said he wasn't feeling well while skiing and wanted to lie down in the car. He got frustrated when the key didn't work and broke off inside the lock.
The deputies asked the suspect if had been drinking. The man said he had three or four drinks with lunch and stopped talking when they asked if he was on any other drugs. He was arrested for criminal mischief.
A driver reported a possible drunken driver on eastbound I-70 in Glenwood Canyon March 17.
The witness said the car was weaving so badly he couldn't pass it. He followed it all the way through the canyon and saw it exit the interstate at Gypsum.
Deputies ran the license plate information and went to the suspect's address in Gypsum. The 30-year-old man was sitting in the parked car and urinating from the open driver-side door. Several empty beer bottles were inside and the man said he'd been drinking with friends in Glenwood Springs. His wife came outside and said she told him to call if he needed her to pick him up.
The man was arrested for further investigation of DUI. He was cited for DUI, driving with open containers of alcohol and careless driving, and released to his wife.
A deputy stopped a car for speeding on I-70 near Eagle-Vail on March 19 and suspected the 22-year-old driver was under the influence of marijuana.
The officer discovered the woman's insurance was expired and that she had a warrant out of Mesa County for an unresolved charge of possessing alcohol as a minor.
The woman agreed to perform voluntary roadside sobriety tests and failed. She submitted to a blood test and was released to a sober friend. She was cited for driving under the influence of drugs and failing to present valid insurance.

SANTA CLARA -- A disastrous opening 25 minutes left the last-place Earthquakes in a big hole Friday night after a 2-1 defeat to D.C. United.
Not even a players-only meeting earlier in the week could change the reeling team's fortunes as it lost for the fourth straight game, the past three at home. With 18 games remaining -- 11 on the road -- San Jose is flirting with missing the MLS playoffs two years in a row.
"We weren't good in the first 35 or 40 minutes," Quakes goalkeeper Jon Busch said. "It's the same old story."
Eastern Conference-leading United (9-5-4) scored twice before a half-hour and then fought off the Quakes in front of a sellout crowd of 10,525 at Buck Shaw Stadium.
San Jose (4-8-4) showed life in the second half but couldn't break out of its scoring drought despite outshooting the visitors 10-1 after halftime.
It took superior goalkeeping from United's Bill Hamid to preserve the win in the second minute of extra time. He stopped Alan Gordon's point-blank header and then a United defender raced to the line to block Steven Lenhart's follow-up.
Coach Mark Watson said the defeat stung more than ever because for once he had plenty of options with most of the players back from the World Cup or injuries.
Yes, the Quakes outplayed United in the second half, but "to put yourself in a two-goal hole is difficult," Watson said.
San Jose looked DOA in the first half having conceded control of the midfield by failing to get attacking player Yannick Djalo involved.
The atmosphere improved in the 39th minute with Chris Wondolowski's welcome-back goal that glanced off a defender and past Hamid to make it 2-1. The goal ended almost 400 scoreless minutes after three straight 1-0 shutout defeats.
But it was United that got in the first punches. Eddie Johnson scored on a penalty kick in the 12th minute after fullback Brandon Barklage was called for a handball in the box. In the 25th minute, Chris Rolfe sent a low ball from the left across the goalmouth where a sliding Luis Silva nicked it past defender Clarence Goodson and Busch. It came after a bad giveaway by the San Jose defense.
Watson had his most complete lineup since Wondolowski joined the U.S. national team in mid-May. Honduras defender Victor Bernardez also was back from Brazil.
Three players who missed the previous two games because of injuries also returned: Goodson (groin) and midfielder Atiba Harris (hamstring) started while Shea Salinas (abdomen), who entered the game in the 67th minute.

FAIRFIELD TWP. - One man was injured and a house sustained heavy damage Monday after a fire that apparently started in a laundry room.
Four fire departments responded to the blaze at the 2348 Tick Ridge Road residence of John and April Bettinger. Authorities were notified of the fire just before noon, Washington County Sheriff Larry Mincks said.
"Took us about 20 minutes from the time we got here to get it under control," said Rob Shotwell, a member of the Barlow Volunteer Fire Department.

Washington County Chapter of the American Red Cross executive director Sheri Schwartz, left, and Barlow Assistant Fire Chief Greg Fisher head toward a Tick Ridge Road house to do a walk-through after it sustained heavy smoke and water damage following a fire Monday.
Authorities said John Bettinger was transported to Marietta Memorial Hospital by a squad from the Little Hocking Volunteer Fire Department after he sustained burns to his foot and leg. He was treated and released from the hospital, said Jennifer Offenberger, director of marketing and public relations for the Memorial Health System.
The fire started near the clothes dryer, Assistant Barlow Fire Chief Greg Fisher said. While he did not want to speculate about the cause, he said, "we don't suspect foul play at this time."
The Ohio Fire Marshal's Office was expected to complete the investigation.
The Dunham and Wesley volunteer fire departments provided manpower to battle the blaze.
The fire was mainly confined to the laundry room area, but smoke spread throughout the house and there was heavy water damage inside, firefighters said.
"It's a savable structure," Fisher said.
Still, the family lost virtually everything inside the house, said Sheri Schwartz, executive director of the Washington County Chapter of the American Red Cross.
"So we'll be helping them out with clothing, personal items, bedding and linens," she said.
John and April Bettinger were home at the time of the fire, but it was not immediately clear Monday afternoon whether their four children were there also.
Several pets escaped the house unharmed, but Fisher said he believed a couple of birds were killed.

The book that really kicked off reading for me was The Hobbit... but not in the drooling, Sindarin-speaking way(I'm not a huge fan of Tolkien which is a lynch-able offense with some of my friends).
I borrowed a lusciously illustrated copy from the library, and for once the pictures in the book outshone the prose - which are normally the focus for me.
After that example, I started doing the pictures in my head better for all stories and never looked back.

When I was at school we used to have to bring in books to read to helpers.
The person that I used to have to read to was my best friend's mum. She tells a story about when I was around 6 years old, all of the other children were bringing in simple, boring books with 'Look' written on every page.
I, on the other hand trundled in with a copy of 'The Red Pony' by John Steinbeck. Suffice to say, I've always been a book nerd.

The first book I remember reading was called Mr. Pine's Mixed Up Signs. It was a story about a sign maker who lost his glasses, but he had to get his signs out around the city so he hung them without his glasses and made a big mess, hanging signs in all the wrong places. For some reason this just cracked me up (probably because I was five) and I read it over and over again because it was so funny. It's the classic approach to getting kids to read - tell a ridiculous story.

I loved Matilda by Roald Dahl as a child. It was my favorite book growing up. I loved it because it made me feel good and independent and I could really identify with the main character Matilda and what she went through. I really loved that book! I even had a picture of it taken with me for my local library's annual fundraiser!

Somehow I came to believe that one must read every word of a book. At about 10 I found I just did not want to finish Pollyanna and I didn't finish it. I felt guilty for many years, about 40 I think, until I realized some books don't have to be finished and we should not feel guilty for recognizing the ones that waste our time.

As a kid I loved reading the Babysitter's Club and it made me want to start my own (I even got so far as to make my own flyers typed out on a typewriter)...
But my mother thought I should read something more challenging so in third or forth grade she told me I should read the Bible from because our church was giving away an award to any kid who read the King James version all the way through.
I started with Genesis, got bored and decided to skip to the 'good' part and read Revelation...that's a lot for a kid with an imagination to handle...

This was my very first One - Minute Writer. Lots of typos, keyboard fright, and extra letters when the alarm sounded (I didn't know what to expect!).
The writing was a little stilted, but brought back sweet memories.
After, I Googled some sweet pictures, including the cover I remember, and had fun adding those to my post....
I will be back to play again - and here's the link to my first-ever effort!

I was six. It was library day. For most of us it meant free time. Something stirred in me to pick up a book. It was grandly illustrated. I vividly remember my friends warning me not to read it. The book, that sounded like a taboo, had nude pictures or maybe just pictures, I guess. I however, do not remember a word or an image from it. All I remember is it was a rectangular book with lots of pictures that I read more than 20 pages of and was very happy about.

Dear Editor:
Current proposals by gas companies to develop gas in Thompson Divide strikes me as distinct from other issues in the valley. This is an issue that has gained broad-spectrum local opposition. Citizens, local governments and civic institutions all support protecting Thompson Divide from gas exploitation. We are all united on this front, so let's make sure to make our voices heard. Citizen action and involvement, attending meetings, speaking out and writing to our elected officials and federal land managers - the Bureau of Land Management and Forest Service - are all needed in service to our local lands. With this in mind I encourage people to attend the public meeting hosted by Pitkin County at the Carbondale Town Hall on
Feb. 27 at 6 p.m. Representatives from gas companies, Pitkin County, the BLM and Forest Service will all be there. This is our chance to speak out for the protection of the Thompson Divide.

STOCKTON — California Highway Patrol officers were heading south on Interstate 5 south of French Camp Road when they spotted a white Toyota with expired registration at 11:52 a.m. Monday.
Officers turned on the patrol car's red emergency lights to initiate a stop, but the vehicle continued traveling.
A high-speed pursuit ensued past Highway 120 and onto westbound Interstate 205 in Tracy. The suspect vehicle weaved in and out of lanes to evade officers, the CHP reported.
The Toyota exited the freeway at the MacArthur Drive offramp in Tracy before losing control and striking a traffic light pole, officials said. The driver and a passenger fled on foot into a dirt field.
Police caught up to them and took them into custody. Adonai Ogbe, 18, of Oakland and Raymond Coopwood Jr., 19, of Emeryville were arrested on suspicion of weapons possession and resisting arrest.

Feeling exposed? Insights from a new meeting on environmental impacts in autism
by Sallie Bernard, Autism Speaks' Board Member, co-founder and Executive Director of Safe Minds
Given the historic inattention of the scientific establishment to the environmental contributions to autism, it was nice to see a day-long conference on the topic held this week by a major research center. "Exploring the Environmental Causes of Autism and Learning Disabilities" was put together by the Children's Center for Environmental Health at the Mount Sinai School of Medicine in New York City. The center is run by Dr. Phil Landrigan, who has been a prominent researcher on the harmful effects of environmental toxicants for decades. He told the incredible story of the harms of lead exposure on children's cognition and behavior, and how the successful effort to remove leaded gasoline from the market in the 1970s resulted in rising IQ scores and economic gain to the country. I hope this same massive effort will be applied to autism and the chemicals which underlie the increase in its prevalence.
Also of note was the presence at the meeting of Linda Birnbaum. Dr. Birnbaum is the director of the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS) which holds the autism/environment portfolio at NIH. The Mt. Sinai meeting follows on a workshop held at NIEHS several months ago which explored the role of the environment in autism. Large scientific initiatives in the field fall to the NIH, so without its support, gains will be painfully slow. Hopefully Dr. Birnbaum's personal involvement signals a heightened interest at NIEHS to look at autism. Although Dr. Birnbaum stated at the conference that her institute spends $30 million on children's environmental health, at a Senate hearing earlier this year, it was shown that just $8 million of this is for autism specifically.
A few interesting bits of information came out of the conference. One was the definition of "environment" that the insiders use. It covers synthetic chemicals like pesticides, flame retardants and plasticizers; heavy metals like arsenic, lead and mercury; combustion and industrial by-products; diet and nutrients; medications, medical interventions, and substance abuse; infections; the microbiome; heat and radiation; and lifestyle factors. Some may be harmful; others protective. They may operate before conception, during pregnancy or in early life, and some may alter gene expression through epigenetic modifications to chemicals surrounding our genes. Craig Newshaffer, who runs the EARLI study to look at environmental factors among younger autism siblings, referred to the concept of the "exposome", that is, everything we are exposed to and its effects on health. Dr. Birnbaum' made the point that health does not equal medicine, and prevention through reduction in chemical exposures is of equal importance to health. Colleen Boyle from the CDC stated that the next prevalence report will be issued in April 2011. We will see if the 1 in 110 number from last year's report has changed. New research from Korea was unable to confirm increased risk of autism due to parental age or low birth weight, which have been identified as risk factors in Western studies.
The most informative talk was by Dr. Irva Hertz-Picciotto from UC-Davis. She explained how changes in diagnosis do not account for most of the increase in autism rates, and how recent research by their group on mercury and flame retardant blood levels do not address whether these substances are causative for autism because the blood samples were taken years after the autism diagnosis. A paper out this week from UC-Davis found that proximity to traffic air pollution during pregnancy almost doubles the risk of autism. Another paper just accepted by a journal has found higher antibodies to cerebellar tissue in children with autism relative to controls, highlighting the immune component in autism.
Other than these interesting items, the conference covered minimal new ground as far as the science goes. Rather, the points of the meeting seemed to be to make the case that environmental factors research in autism must now be considered mainstream science and to showcase the work being done or about to be done to investigate the issue. Dr. Landrigan made the case for an environmental role by noting that the rate of autism has increased too much to be solely genetic, and that at most, genetics alone will end up explaining 40% of autism cases with the likely percentage much lower.
Autism Speaks provided funding for the conference so that families could attend for free. Alycia Halladay, who runs our environmental science portfolio, noted that environmental factors and how they interact with genetics became one of Autism Speaks 5 priority areas for science in 2010. Autism Speaks also co-funded the NIEHS workshop on the environment earlier this year. Mt. Sinai plans to make video excerpts of the conference available in a few weeks.

I never knew the environmental factors contributed to Autism. This article was very interesting and helpful for my class project.
December 13, 2010 at 4:20 am
yeah i found this article very interesting to
December 13, 2010 at 8:53 am
I also attended this workshop. See ageofautism.com for my detailed impressions.
Sallie Bernard is correct, the presentation of Dr. Irva Hertz Pinchero was exceptionally good. If Mt Sinai makes this conference available her remarks are very much worth watching for researchers and families alike. The other speakers were not compelling.
Dr. Boyle of the CDC boasted about the "tremendous progress" they have made in autism research over the past 10 yrs. I found this comment, frankly, offensive. It has been families, every step of the way dragging the CDC and the NIH towards addressing autism w/ a meaningful research investment. Progress has been made despite the CDC not because of their paltry efforts. When Dr. Boyle first starting working in autism it affected 1 in 250 American children, now it affects a staggering 1 in 110. This is the CDC's idea of "tremendous progress?"
With a budget of many hundreds of millions the CD spends just $22 million a year on autism, a national health crisis. However the CDC spends 100x that on H1N1 and even more on the avian flu.
I would have loved to address these issues in person but Dr. Philip Landrigan shouted me down as I attempted to ask a single question after Dr. Boyle's 45 minute speech.
We can debate the issues and agree to disagree politely. What was totally unacceptable was Dr. Landrigan's refusal to allow questions from the families helping to sponsor the event.
December 14, 2010 at 11:03 pm
I also attended this conference. I too was disappointed when I got in line twice to ask a question and none were taken. With due respect however, I would not describe Dr. Landrigan's refusal to take your question as "shouting you down". He simply stated there wasn't time for questions and directed you, me and others to approach the speakers directly. I was able to speak to both Drs. Boyle and Birnbaum during breaks and found them both to be gracious, respectful and quite candid about the lack of research in my own area of interest
It sounds from your post that you are less interested in learning something new or having a question answered than in having a chance to call everyone to task for the pathetic state of the science to date regarding autism research. I couldn't agree more, but we really didn't need to spend precious time on that topic. That is a given and not even worthy of "debate" as far as I'm concerned. What I found far more disappointing about the conference was the lack of any real "news" and therepetitive nature of the talks by presenters who, from what I could surmise, were all in each other's pockets.
December 15, 2010 at 3:04 pm
Dear Tracy, Because he was speaking to me I think I can fairly categorize Landrigan as impolite. Parents like me are used to being in the minority in mainstream ASD discussions but I have never experienced a total question shut down. Questions are an integral part of these family funded conference- Landrigan was running the show and did not make this a priority at all. Researchers, clinicians and parents were there to learn and discuss. ONLY ONE person learns something by asking questions in private!
Tracy, Please refrain from judging meaning and context of questions I was not allowed to ask. I agree that this was "precious time" all the more reason that Dr. Boyle not speak for so long. Dr. Landrigan could have easily and gently asked her to wind it up after 50 slides and 30 minutes. My point is that federal officials are not the only ones entitled to conference time.
I too wanted to ask about NEW autism research. I wish one of us got the chance to speak.

It seems as though you obtained your grant because you did not mention vaccines as the cause. Thimerosal, a registered pesticide, is in vaccines, along with live viruses grown in the entrails of animals, formaldehyde, aluminum, and other toxic substances. If your child dies right after a vaccine, or stops talking and walking after 30 vaccines like what happened with my friends children, then you have to acknowledge that this is worth looking into. Because someone is able to survive a toxic insult to the body, and others are not, doesn't make mean it is safe, if anything it calls into the question the safety of doing do. Study long term bio-accumulative effects of getting 68 mandated vaccines. The evidence is starring you right in the face. Because people have more access to information, they are making an informed decision, and it will be the public who will take control of their health choices! So begins the revolution!
Of coarse we are exposed to many toxic insults from multiple sources, they should be eliminated or avoided. Does it do damage and cause genetic mutations? The answer is YES!

HAGERSTOWN - Hagerstown police have charged Kiley Steven Dusza, 22, no address given in connection with an armed robbery at the BP gas station, 1760 Dual Highway, at 1:54 a.m. Monday.
Police said a masked man entered the gas station displaying a knife, and approached the clerk behind the counter.
A struggle ensued and the suspect suffered a cut to his hand before fleeing the store. A K-9 unit helped track a trail of blood that led to an apartment on Edgewood Hill Circle.
The suspect, later identified as Dusza, was taken to Meritus Medical Center for treatment before being taken to the Washington County Detention Center.
Dusza faces charges of armed robbery, robbery, first- and second-degree assault, reckless endangerment, concealing a dangerous weapon and dangerous weapon-intent to injure.
