We see the Weather wars directed at the United Kingdom as your technological gizmos were turned up to high power at the
designated hour as rats and cockroaches that be fled for "safe" cover as per script
couldnt be an attack from the same clowns that tried to kickstart WW3 in Syriah and Iran but Failed .., could it? ..,
.., and were mightily pissed at the U.K. and very specific targets for leaving/forcing the hidden hand of the Zioshits to go it alone,
i.e. cowards forced to back down and skulk off into the shadows, tail between legs yet again.
Rather like hurricane Sandy and other Sandy "events" and false flag attacks when USA didnt attack Iran or designated target as per the PNAC Zio-NWO-scrypt on time
led to immediate retaliation or punishment from "god" as Zionist-Knight-of-Malta-thug Netanyahu openly warned in plain sight, where "god" is code for something quite different
and nothing like.
That Rothschild mafia clowns have been playing weather wars for a long time now is well known to those that know a thing or two
and were behind all the attacks like the scalar/frequency induced earthquakes and tsunamis/hurricanes in Haiti, Indonesia, Japan-Fukushima, Hurricane Katrina etcetera etcetera ..
Weather scalar frequency wars, a worldwide war that has been well under way for a long time
Constant frequency manipulation of earth and all "living" "subjects"
for negative ends and negative "end-times".
Always accompanied by the sonic signature of attack .., I 'll bet the Whales and Dolphins would know exactly .., and bats and birds and .... ....
Scalar Haarp frequency signed on the dotted line . . ,
radar sky patterns.., evidence is all there to see or has been at one time or another if you werent on snooze cruise modality.
Who do you think is controlling all those worldwide secretive "hidden" radar /aerial arrays. It wouldnt take more than a handful in one centralised location.
Like the huge arrays on the ascension islands and other un-named or obscured landmasses between South America and Africa
pulsing very strong signals up north smack bang into the Gulf Stream Current as it approaches Ireland and the United Kingdom
perfect way to keep the British Isles under constant grey fog cloud cover to allow for covert ops and targeted assasinations
and perfect way to generate hurricane and high tide conditions as seen constantly now over the UK.
More "punishment" from the false god of the false "state" of Rothschild Zionist Israel.
Who else would have the means and funds to control this massive operation sustained over such a long time period.
The many bases and aerial array installations worldwide are now fully active in creating dangerous conditions globally in order to fulfil certain scripts
and population reduction plans to free up more assets and wealth for their parasitic greedy insatiable empty soulless shells that be.
This rather blatant targeting of the UK right now however, especially the targeted regions and especially right over the Christmas period gives
their little game away rather nicely in one.
The Zionist Rothchild luciferians can never resist this sort of thing at this sort of time for reasons rather obvious to most that are not walking waking zombies already.
Let us not forget the key installations in Alaska and Australia - and the importance of Pine Gap in the coordination of
the HAARP and skynet grid war machine - satelite and ground based. No doubt many I.T. "supercomputer" comms and trace routes to and from Israel itself
as the untouchable control point and traffic flow for the operation in a country of which no questions are asked and no fingers are pointed .. until they are, as they are, NOW.
That also brings us back to the ol N.S.A. and its massive global operation with its collective stockpile of weapons and tools of mass interference/destruction/
manipulation and outright war on Sovereign and innocent Beings, making them the largest and most dangerous organised terrorist organisation currently in the world.
As it has been pointed out, ALL communications and data is routed through Israel - they have literal control over the NSA and that is why they can manipulate governments
and officials of any large organisations through blackmail and death threats or outright assasination, to do their bidding. Once again a Rothschild mafia creation.
The fact that they have giant bases/facilities in the USA and also the UK - Menwith Hill is it? and work hand in hand with the massive GCHQ in Cheltenham Gloucester
makes them the ACTUAL tool for the force that is working to control the UK/USA/European allied governments for the Rothschild/Rockefeller/Knights of Malta/vatican Mafia group
through threat, coersion or death. Who do you think has been spying on all those scientists and researchers and then secretly killing them through covert/"silent" means.
Have you seen the huge list of those death-by-undetermined-or-natural-causes especially in the UK and USA - researchers and workers involved in DNA, genetics, biological warfare,
disease/bacterial or viral strains, also astro physicists and other potential global-doomsday-weapons related fields of research or work.
the NSA is KEY to these assasinations as it is KEY to the drone civilian assasination projects along with USA DARPA HAARP RAND -assaociated think-tanks Ta)v)is t(o)ck and S*ta*n ))fo((rd r
ese(arch inst. and the "secret" military industrial black project industries and bases where the "work" and prep. is done.
paid for by the slave taxpayer in blood.
Who was in charge of NSA at the time of 9/11 and probably also London 7/7 - Michael Chertof - Israeli dual citizen/ his mother a Mossad operative immigrant
and Chertof is Knight of Malta (also behind TSA and related domestic surveilance for profit companies), and who let all those arrested Israeli operative agents go free back to Israel, not a word mentioned about it -again M Chertof signed
the paperwork, and then Rudy Guiliani - Knight of Malta - mayor of N.Y. during 9/11 and present at London 7/7
readily available on script to do television interviews about the bombing, as was Ben Netanyahu (present at both "events") - some say he is C.I.A. but lets rather say Knight of Malta
as the pattern is rather clear now. They are all networked / inter-twined .., like a web,
All Rothschild/Windsor territories are infiltrated by NSA/GCHQ as your fabled "big brother is watching you" spy network that treats everyone and everything
as a potential target for assessment or assassination. They crave respect and compliance through fear as with all n.w.o. agencies - therefore they want you always to be aware of their presence with repetative training and conditioning
that there is nothing you can do about it. As repeated as per script on television by paid actors and agents everytime they interview "someone random" about their thoughts on the validity of the illegal surveilance techniques.
Just as whenever there is a rise in taxes or train/travel fares they interview paid actors to say "oh well that's life whatcha gonna do" and then giggle or smile at the camera like an inane paid moron actor shill.
Back in the days of Maggie Thatcher, assasinations were carried out by ex military and shadow agency operatives to kill or silence anyone that opposed or threatened their Drakonian system, illegal sell-off of British assets (privatisation),
illegal and increasingly oppressive tax system, and the so called merger with the EU economic markets as if Hitler himself was working at Whitehall alongside the Tories to destroy what so many had given their lives to save, and was done
under the guise of targeting I.R.A. suspected terrorists - meanwhile the Thatcher (and previous and post) government shadow ops were actually the ones setting off bombs and creating chaos themselves to bolster the image of a threat to the public,
in order to justify the presence of these "assasination forces". Same old modus operadi as today with the same old black Drak powers creating various religious and militant extremist groups to carry out bombings
chaos and confusion just to justify their increasing Orwellian surveilance and anti-citizen, guilty until not proven innocent, militant, Nazi, Fascist, Globalist extremist anti-freedomist stance.
Re Snowden and the N.S.A. :
What Mr Snowden didnt say .. failed to say .. unless I missed it .. was that not only are the NSA operating above or outside most laws on earth in their bluntly intrusive illegal oppresive surveilance operation,
but they are operating a secret global assassination program ala the type that Mossad and their Rothchild cronies normally operate, (i.e. same crew) targeting with full intent to kill, anything that stands in the way of the global nwo take-over agenda of the "mafia" clowns
and the dark shadow powers behind them.
A major Assassination Program targeting civilians and innocents not proven guilty of any crime or even accused of such. Non-combatants, non-military personel, and those not associated with any known or suspected terrorist or militant groups -
i.e. potentially YOU.
Now were that the crux of Mr. Snowdens message I would say that those stacked cards would have crumbled in one mighty big deafening furious roar.
Instead it was dished out in carefully controlled segments to be assessed and then assimilated into the mass consciousness, thereby giving virtual approval by no reaction
or non-action. Setting precedents as easily as falsely installing presidents as they do and have done.
They even exagerate the ability of these clowns to actually monitor so many billions of people without having another x billion working for the NSA as spys themselves, or the actual feasability of having superdupercomputers that act as the watch-dog,
trail sniffer and ultimate assassin in one, via automated drones and bots and very fallible energy guzzling machines. No human group of workers could achieve this gargantuan task unless they had help from another possibly alien but obviously technologically advanced
group of beings. which is precisely where this is headed and leads back to places like Pine Gap, and within various secretive underground bases around the world, and the obvious non-human presence on Earth that is pulling the strings. Ye drakonians of olde.
When was Snowden going to mention that lil bombshell to the masses that think humans are the one and only inhabitants of this planet, galaxy, universe, realm etc, let alone multi-dimensional, time-disconnected aspects of Being and their structures
beyond the falsified holywood world within which they focus their conscious attention .. or are trained/forced to.
That would blow every letter agency and associated nwo NSA dirtbag operative right out of the water and expose them all as being COMPLICIT with forces of darkness if you will, or other entities/beings that use and control En-Souled Humans and other Living Entities
and Matter as their own to do with as they wilt, . . as a parasite to you, the host.
One other thing - regarding this lil ole illuminati offer thread and the targeted individual/s as some like to call it -
If Ed Snowden really had all the dirt on the NSA and was really interested in helping to tip the balance in favor of the people,
he would know (as would Putin and his people) EXACTLY WHO the targets of this and other threads are that have created such long-lasting interest,
and if he would release this information to the world, it would be the lynch pin - the hammer - that would hit that final and most important nail in the coffin of the Drakonian
plan. Then again he aint the only whistle blower in the world, never forget that. It would only take a few to achieve what many have failed to do in the past due to certain conditions that exist and certain momentum gathered.
i.e. REVEAL WHAT THEY REALLY DO TO HUMANS WHEN YOU ARENT LOOKING OR PAYING ATTENTION, AND WHAT THEY REALLY HAVE IN STORE FOR YOU
the NSA/GCHQ and indeed all the letter agencies around this subject matter - Mossad/MI5-6/CIA - actually PROVE their guilt and direct involvemnt in this on-going
assasination program of Civilian Sovereign Entities - BY THEIR WILLFUL SILENCE AND CONSTANT COVER-UP ATTEMPTS.
An operation this large, especially being one that has gone on for this many years now and garnered more than its fair share of attention and even new targets to be elliminated,
There would be endless streams of chatter and obvious movements of agents in and around the target area, not forgetting the very obvious and traceable effects of the weapons used to target these individuals.
IN OTHER WORDS THERE IS NO WAY FOR THEM AND THE SO-CALLED POWERS THAT B TO NOT KNOW ABOUT THIS OPERATION or pretend not to AND EXACTLY WHO IT INVOLVES.
NO WAY. They say they can read a mute persons innermost thoughts and desires and hear a mouse fart in an alleyway on Pluto 10 years in the future,
yet they didn't notice this operation run right under and through their large noses, by and through the usual channels and military internet i.e. g.l.p. and associates.
I don't think so.

Ok things are escalating rapidly now.
As many birds on wires might tell you, they have increased the attacks on specific targets .., more specifically one individual
located in Swindon, Wiltshire, United Kingdom.
The targeted individual (which hardly even begins to cover this one), who resides in Swindon, shares a place with an elderly relative
and they have been increasing/altering the methods and severity of attack over time i.e. radiation/microwave/e.l.f/directed energy and including the use of
those "smart lasers" that Brian from x marks the spot thread and Marco Rodin likes so much. Lasers like the ones they use to look through walls
to detect the precise location of the individual/s behind walls. They are then able to focus the attack on that specific person or room. The info on all
this is all available out there as you know. The other methods are via satelite, g.p.s. tracking and the same systems which track mobile phones or other r.f.i.d.
devices. The individual in Swindon has also been routinely attacked from airborne craft, coming from U.S. air bases that are all over the U.K. and hosted by RAF bases such as
Lakenheath, Mildenhall or RAF Fairford which is fairly close to the subjects residence. The targeted individual was apparently attacked by an electromagnetic or directed energy weapon while attending
a public air display at RAF Fairford's royal military show a few years ago, so there is no doubt as to who is behind the aggression - i.e. forces loyal or paid for by the Rothschild military industrial empire.
He was attacked after viewing the American ground displays of stealth bomber and drones. I assume that normally they would have written it off to the public as simply a member of public
becoming ill/heart attack/stroke etc. It did not happen that way we are told. He walked away.
The use of the US Air Force and N.S.A. assassination groups (instaead of overtly using GCHQ and RAF although they are clearly in on it at the very highest levels) are to circumvent any suspicions or questions about legality
or morality arising from attacking civilian subjects within UK territory BY UK ROYAL FORCES i.e liz's fault, and in turn provide the same services in targeting USA civilians ala the reason for UN troops and boots on the ground.
Not rocket science. The same reason they get away with all the chemtrail spraying - see open skies treaty. See Nato/UN US foreign territorial bases etc.
And now we have actual proof that the USAF are/have been conducting low level "training" missions over civilian territory in non-war-times, WHILST FULLY ARMED WITH -live rounds -bullets- they say in the press, but we know
otherwise. It was a lot more than "bullets". This is in your face illegal and completely unacceptable and needs further investigation and prison time if not worse.
Those Blackhawk and other similar advanced style of craft are all outfitted with all the latest in directed energy weapons, lasers and microwave weapons and ARE BEING USED ON CIVILIAN TARGETS
BOTH IN THE UK AND THE USA (which is only where we focus at the moment aside from Rothschild's Israel). Similar attack helicopters have been spotted hovering and firing energy beams and god-knows-what at the targets home in Swindon.
There are also regular fly-overs of other craft/jets and ARMED DRONES which leave the tell-tale traces and signatures of microwave or directed energy attacks around this discussed individual and no doubt other civilian
non-combatant ground targets. Completely off the charts / illegal/ war crimes 101/ YET KNOWN ABOUT BY THE NSA/GCHQ AND USUAL LETTER AGENCIES INCLUDING THE ROYAL AIR FORCE/MILITARY/M.O.D. .., which of
course means that it has been green-lighted or approved by her majesty the queen of england elizabeth the second along with her usual same old Rothschild masonic satanic cohorts.
If not then prove that is not the case. Until that happens it shall stand as it is. And dealt with as it is.
They have been attacking this one specific target for more than five years - (I will not deal with the attacks of the years before that as that is not my focus right now)
Previously located in Surrey, they used every trick in the book and failed, he walked away, with potential to disappear from them completely. They freaked out for a while with nervous chatter about birds
having flown the nest, and "get a bird up there" to follow etc .., played out right here on glp and other places in vague internet chatter that sounded like nonsense to most, but was seen and recorded by some.
The target walked away, though they gave the elderly relative bleeding facial skin cancer and memory/brain/other related permanent "issues" from targeting the wrong room or person, not that they
care one bit about any innocents or non-targets they take out in the process.
This involved literal fleets of white/black fake service/utility vans and shady operatives moving into the targeted building alon with low flying, middle of the night black helicopters and other unidentified aerial craft besides the
usual satelites firing energy beam and microwave weapons at the targets home, which would have been all over the radar of the local military
"authorities"and of course the prime candidates mi5-6/Mossad/NSA-CIA/GCHQ. In fact there is evidence that the Surrey police were contacted and details given of attempted break-ins, harrassment, and the nature
of the extreme situation, both over the phone and by direct interview with an officer. That officer failed to make follow up calls/enquiries, and then disappeared off
the map. The police, as with any case involving (illegal) government black ops against CIVILIAN TARGETS like this one, are told to back off, stand down, hush hush or else
they themselves are targeted, or family threatened. I imagine there are many normal people still in the police service or military which would be happy to step forward if they
knew their safety was guaranteed. There is great safety in numbers, and the spartacus principle applies not so much in pretending to be the victim anon., but by standing up
as one, in great numbers and saying yes I know what is going on here, or even just a fragmented compartmentalised bit of the picture. That defragmented snowball would be unstoppable .., forget about Snowdon and
similar "revelations" that go no-where fast. This one is like a veritable tinder-box.
After the Surrey operation failed over many years, the target moved and was then backed into a corner in Swindon, Wiltshire, and was basically held a static prisoner while attacks and microwaving took place (as before in surrey) in his own
home using the same sonic weapons and microwaves tested on the inmates in Guantanamo, where they were rendered unwilling or rather actually UNABLE to go into the excercise yard, they instead
remained knocked out as if drugged, in their cells. The modern version of drugging patients that are illegally and falsely admitted into psychiatric hospital wards/prisons when they pose a threat to the powers
that are trying so hard to be, from researchers to activists, whether civilians or nationals of the countries involved or not.
Completely done outside all laws - black ops in a black op war against Human Sovereignty and Freedom from oppression and slavery and manipulation of the many by just a few.
Classic T9a-v9is9to9ck999 sP(y)ch(o)logical In/st/it//ute/// tactics. A place where they used to experiment on perfectly healthy sound-minded targets and lobotomise them and use them as lab rats
to see how far they had to go in order to prevent any opposition to their dark masters wishes for complete and utter global control of a slave prison hell, i.e new "world"
under their dark order. These experiments ongoing but now done using "smart" weapons, and long distance weapons which enable these slimy cowards to hide and press
buttons from dark corners.
But back to this specific targeted individual which is directly related to this thread and to many ongoing attacks and OPs
carried out on/via GLP and associated military/airforce bases. Other conspiracy sites also used in this same global phishing war/assassination operation.
The individual in question has been isolated as has been mentioned and rendered up to now unable to function in normal capacities as any "free" slave out there.
The weapons and agents involved are all covert cowards deployed in a way to use the same old smokescreen cover to hide their actions and rely on the excuse/card of "insanity" whenever anyone declares they are being targeted.
Classic case of isolate and the destroy at any cost. This is also heavily dependant if not entirely reliant upon there being no witnesses or whistleblowers coming forward to help.
In this case that is not the case, and considering the length of time and scope of coverage, how on earth could it be. They are dreaming to think they are not seen and heard by many that are not too happy with the situation
to say the least, and just waiting for the right moment to pounce. Especially the ones up above, but no more about that for now.
Think about who was entrapping who, really.
They have recently increased their operations as said, and have caused the increasing deterioration in the health of the elderly relative, possibly cancer related, (as they hoped to achieve with the actual target -remember someone calling
themselves "13" around mid year 2013 on this thread, saying that it would be all resolved in about 30 to 90 days - just as they started firing up the cancer causing weapons as hard as they could -yet the target has no such disease or any other .., )
A very big mistake to involve a defenseless innocent elderly person in this - be it cancer or not, as we know, radiation/microwave poisoning and constant directed energy attack will cause just about any type of disease or affliction or mental problem,
you could possibly imagine. But never forget the reverse mirror effect will be applied to the sender and all involved.
The reasons for now openly attacking the elderly relative is obvious to any observer, apart from the Rothschild "forces" just getting plain desperate and figuratively carpet bombing the target in the hopes of saving their own hides.
It was a very bad miscalculation on their part though as it is obvious they have now unleashed a rather determined case of anger empowered willful intent/wrath/payback/total elimination war, that will now involve many in their own families that
would otherwise not be involved - a wider and more full scale open war - and has made things far worse for them than anything could have been before they showed just how callous and actually evil they really are and the urgent need for their total and utter demise.
That is how fearful and desperate they are that they would spend so much time, money and man/woman "power" on one man in a sea of so many with potential for the same.
But in those words is also the reason/answer for the why's. And other reasons to be clearer later.
There are many targeted individuals worldwide of course but we are talking about one which seems to have been on their radar for so very long and been kept
hush hush for so very long, with exactly how many 24/7 attempts to silence him (has anyone kept count). I have seen many agency posters on glp say that this target would never be known,
as if that is what the target himself wanted (which makes no survival sense as any whistle blower would tell you). They would just silently disappear (be erased or wiped), as silence to "them" is golden,
as it allows the puppet masters to remain behind the curtain, and placates them that there appears to be no one willing or able to step forward and make a very very loud noise about this .., en masse, or one by one.
They know very well that when the details come out about this one specific target .., they are completely and utterly screwed .., finished. No more pyramid, no more house of cards. No more options on the table.
No more secret assassination programs to silence freedom fighters and truth seekers or similar. It will be a very public and deathly painful period upcoming for the individuals and groups like the NSA and Rothschild
mafioso and Vatican assassin groups involved.
Now to all those other "birds on wires" and whistleblowers, and those in secret support of the Humanity side of things, ..,
It is time to step forward, to step up, to put up .., or shut up. This one right here will not be shutting up or backing down, NOW or EVER.
Get THAT straight.

Gnosticism is just a fancy name for satanist/luciferean/humanist/liberal/occultist/newager/channelers/reincarnationist. And as such YAH rebuke all those spirits and their demonic doctrines.
YAHshua/Jesus was never a gnostic, and a careful reading of the gospels will show that quite clearly.
Gnosticism is a daughter of babylon, and the mother of freemasonry , it is vanity/selfishness and greed masquerading as concern and commonweal, and claiming to be god/s does not make it so, possession was and always has been the result of rejecting YAHshua/Jesus, His word/the Holy Spirit, and seeking after alternatives to fill the void, guarantees separation from YHVH/God, not inclusion/oneness. There is no other route to Father and the Wisdom from above, for male and female made He them in His image. YAH rebuke the gnostic so called christian(false believers) writing, they are devilish and deceptive, but certainly do appeal to itching ears and wicked hearts, Amen.

Reader Question:
I hear a lot of commercials on the radio about working from home. Are any of these legit?
Grace, FL
Hi Grace,
Buyers beware, when it comes to these work-at-home, or income-at-home, opportunities you're hearing on the radio. Don't get me wrong when I first started my consulting firm, over fifteen years ago, I started out of my house! So, there are legitimate work-at-home opportunities. In fact a lot of small businesses started out working out of their homes. The difference is, typically those individuals already have a skill or reputation in their industry. Certainly that was the case for me. But for someone just starting out in a new business without any training, reputation in the industry, or skills in this new work-at-home business? I don't think so. Now, check it out, just be careful because sometimes these opportunities sound really good. They say, "You don't have to sell soap" or something like that and then when you look into this business opportunity (which I have) it isn't selling soap it is selling vitamins! And, of course, through multi-level marketing! No thanks!
In my business as a professional recruiter I have seen a lot of firms moving toward telecommuting, which generally means working from your home. A lot of sales representatives work from home, right? How about medical transcripts or some type of legal transcripts? Internet businesses? If working from your home is something that you really want to do in your career you can certainly find a lot of tremendous legitimate opportunities. As a general rule, stay away from the get rich quick stuff. I hope this helps.
Good luck to you!

AMHERST - A 19-year-old man drowned early Sunday morning in Nova Scotia after leaping from a bridge into the Shinimicas River.
RCMP say that at 3 a.m. they received a call that four young men had jumped from the Shinimicas River bridge to go for a swim.
One of the four failed to surface.
Const. Paul Calder told the Amherst News that searchers "recovered the young fellow's body" almost eight hours later nearby the bridge.
Poor visibility in the water made it difficult for divers to locate the body.
Police aren't releasing the name of the dead youth until next of kin are notified.

Despite his love of adventure, he was the smartest and most sensible friend I've ever known, and got more out of life in 19 years than most people ever do. None of us were egging each other on, there is no "Free Choice" either, you could die on your way to work tomorrow or from jumping off the same bridge you've been swimming at since you were a small child. For you maybe this story is just something to read about to pass a boring day, But for myself and others it's very personal and real so I'd appreciate that you didn't disrespect my friends memory by calling it stupidity. Sometimes bad things happen to the best of us, when we least expect it. He was many thing's, but far from stupid, at least he could spell....and a priori is two words bud.

You are disrespecting the man who died and his family by chalking his death up to stupidity. Maybe if you knew the whole story you wouldn't be so quick to open your mouth and judge something you know nothing about.

Ain't it. Blame the other 3? For all we know the guy that died could have been egging them on to jump.

The news that former football star Herschel Walker is dipping his toe into the world of Mixed Martial Arts is scary for a couple reasons:
One, there's a chance a 47-year-old could get killed out there, and two, what if he's actually some sort of ninja-Chuck Norris hybrid and nobody knew?
After all, the guy reportedly is a 412th-degree black belt in Tae Kwon Do or something. (You'd think he could have used that to help his Olympic bobsledding chances a few years back.)
Walker is the second athlete in recent memory to give MMA a try, following in the footsteps of the esteemed Jose Canseco, who flopped around the ring worse than your average heavyweight boxer.
It makes you wonder who will be the next athlete to step in line to have his or her face caved in?
Glad I asked, since I love these brainstorming sessions. Here are five guesses:
- No. 5, Serena Williams: That way she'd have the chance to take this (insert creative expletive here) ball and shove it down their (repeat expletive) throat.
- No. 4, Stephen Jackson: Remember when he went berserk at The Palace of Auburn Hills riot a few years ago? He'd be good for at least one round, right?
- No. 3, Nate Robinson: He may be only 5-foot-9, but it's not the size of the guy in the fight, it's the size of the fight in the guy, right? Well, Nate has plenty of fight in him.
- No. 2, Tiger Woods: His biceps are getting a little out of control. It's time to put them to use.
- No. 1, Milton Bradley: You thought I was going to say somebody like Mike Tyson or Dennis Rodman or Ron Artest, didn't you? MMA needs someone who can put their anger issues to good use. It's not like the Cubs want him back. Maybe it's time for a new career path.

Trenton, NY -- A Holland Patent man was killed in a one-car crash that happened Friday in Oneida County, the New York State Police said.
Christian M. Varin, 19, was driving eastbound around 7:17 a.m. Friday on Korber Road in the town of Trenton. He lost control of the vehicle and crossed the westbound lane of the road before exiting the north shoulder and hitting a tree in front of 10335 Korber Road, state police said.
Varin was pronounced dead at the scene.
State police said an investigation is continuing.

Syracuse's Planning Commission is not supposed to act like the Common Council, or vice versa. But a majority of common councilors seems bent on morphing into planning commissioners when they so choose. As dissenting Councilor Bob Dougherty so eloquently put it, "the appearance of this is to politicize the planning process."
Dougherty voted "no" in October when the council approved a measure 6-3 allowing councilors to intervene in the planning process is two new ways: If the commission votes unanimously against a development proposal, councilors still could insist on considering it; and if the commission rejects the application as incomplete, councilors could insist the panel vote on it — giving them another chance to act.
"With this legislation," Dougherty warned, "we're going to become pretty much a sixth man on the planning commission, and I really don't think that's where we want to be."
Syracuse Mayor Stephanie Miner was right to veto this ill-considered legislation. That she also rejected the law on legal grounds — it was not delivered "promptly" by the city clerk — seems a little desperate, but if it sends councilors back to square one, so be it. The city's corporation counsel also has argued a measure like this, which changes the city charter, requires a public referendum.
With a veto-proof majority, the council could have its way. But councilors already have the final say on development proposals that pass muster with the planning commission. Councilors can even consider a proposal supported by a single commissioner.
Councilors are not bound by commission decisions, either. After planners unanimously approved an application from the Hookah Lounge, a club on North Salina Street, the council rejected it — also unanimously — for reasons of public health and safety.
"It is appropriate that elected officials be responsible and held accountable," wrote Council Majority Leader Lance Denno, who campaigned for the new law. He's half-right: The buck stops with the council. But council review should not extend to overruling planners when they unanimously turn down a project or find it incomplete.
In the case of a proposed Dunkin' Donuts franchise on North Salina Street, planners worked successfully with the developer to make it compatible with the neighborhood. Had the developer objected and the commission turned him down, the new law would allow councilors to embrace the flawed proposal.
Even the wisest, most civic-minded councilor is subject to pressures and agendas at odds with best planning practices. That's why the council and the commission are set up the way they are. Councilors may have the votes to override Miner's veto, but they should think better of it.

Marshall Space Flight Center will remain closed Friday, except for "mission essential" personnel. The National Space Science and Technology Center and Intergraph facilities will open, with an unscheduled leave (liberal leave) policy in effect for employees at both facilities.
The MSFC call center remains open for civil servants and contractors from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. Employees who have not already checked in with their supervisor can call 877-470-5240 to do so or verify their status.
Systems have been powered up gradually to insure they are not damaged and to keep from triggering any outages or other problems. That will also be true at Marshall, which has some unique, sensitive equipment.
"They have a very deliberate process for that," said Redstone Arsenal Garrison Commander Col. John Hamilton in a briefing this morning.
Marshall anticipates opening Monday, according to a statement.
Officials are pleased that most operations are restored on the arsenal and more of the approximately 35,000 who work there can return.
"We know that for many people it will be a long time before things are close to 'normal,'" said spokeswoman Terri Stover. But getting back on the job and restoring some routine may help with healing from the storms' disruption. "They want to work, they want to contribute, they want to do something," she said.
Resources remain available on the arsenal to help those recovering from the tornadoes. Individuals affiliated with Redstone that have the appropriate credentials to access the installation can go to the Firehouse Pub on Goss Road to get housing assistance from 7 a.m. - 7 p.m.
Confidential Disaster Relief Counseling Services are available, and for more information call 256-842-9897.
Arsenal gates have returned to normal operating hours; Fox Army Health Center will be open 8 a.m. - 4 p.m. today.
Other Operating Hours:
Post Exchange: 9 a.m. - 5 p.m.; Commissary: 9 a.m. - 7 p.m.; Shoppette: 6 a.m. - 6 p.m.
What's still closed at Redstone Arsenal
Power has been restored and Redstone Arsenal is open and resuming normal gate hours, except for:
•NASA Marshall Space Flight Center will remain closed today except for mission essential personnel. The National Space Science Technology Center (NSSTC) and Intergraph facilities are open today with an unscheduled leave (liberal leave) policy in effect for employees at those facilities. Currently, MSFC anticipates opening on Monday with restoration of commercial power.
•All Aviation and Missile Research, Development and Engineering Center (AMRDEC) personnel working in the Huntsville-Redstone Arsenal area are on administrative leave until contacted by their supervisor and told to report to work. Currently, AMRDEC anticipates being fully operational on Monday.
•Program Executive Office, Missiles and Space employees should contact their supervisors to determine if they should report to duty.
Employees with questions or issues are encouraged to contact their first-line supervisor.
Contract employees should check with their company for further directions.

Yeah, they only made a few thousand of them, and there was only 21 games ever made for the system (all crap.) It was actually a joint effort between Bandai and Apple, and the only company making games for it was bandai. This was back when Bandai was only really known in the states for the Power Rangers.
But, with awesome titles like "Exotic Sushi" I'm amazed it failed.
There's been rumors that apple might be trying to get back into the console world, following a few recent patents. If they do, they can take heart in the fact that they can't possibly do any worse.

FAIRHOPE, Alabama – With his team on spring break, Faith Academy baseball coach Lloyd Skoda called the players to the school at 1 p.m. Monday for some extra batting practice.
A few hours later at Volanta Park, the Rams took some more swings.
Faith pounded out 12 hits and broke the game open with a six-run fifth inning on the way to an 8-0 win over homestanding Fairhope in a battle of highly ranked Coastal Alabama teams.
The Rams, ranked second in Class 5A in the latest Alabama Sports Writers Association poll, improved to 24-2 overall. Their only losses this season have come to McGill-Toolen and St. Paul's.
Fairhope, ranked No. 6 in 6A, had a 13-game winning streak snapped and fell to 24-6 overall. Half of those losses have come at the hands of Faith.
"We weren't prepared tonight, and that was my fault," Fairhope coach Stu Fuller said. "We had no answer for (Faith pitcher Caleb) Lopes, and we haven't all year. I'm not sure we have an earned run against him in 12 innings or so this year.
"They've got a great club."
Lopes pitched five shutout innings Monday to get the win. He allowed just three hits and struck out three. A.J. McQueen pitched the final two innings, allowing one hit.

Fuller, with a big three-game Area 3 series against Daphne ahead on Thursday and Friday, decided not to overwork any of his key pitchers. The Pirates started ace Corey Childress, but he pitched only one scheduled inning. Seven Fairhope pitchers followed him to the mound.
"I thought we played well tonight," Skoda said. "Coach Fuller did what he needed to do with his staff with a big series this weekend. He had a purpose, and I understand that."
Faith took the lead with single runs in the second and fourth innings before breaking it open in the fifth. Malik Rosier and Tyler Garside each hit two-run homers and Logan Collier had a two-run double. The Rams had seven hits in the inning. Rosier, whose blast went to straightaway center, was 2-for-4 with two runs scored.
"When you don't play for a few days, it's easy to get sloppy in your play or with your swing," Skoda said. "That's why we met at the school early today. I've always said it is much harder to maintain when you are playing well then to get where you are going. The guys did a good job tonight."
Jacob Pannelli led Faith with three hits. J.B. Brown had two hits and made a diving catch to preserve the shutout in the seventh inning. The Rams also played without one of their leaders, Jae Skoda, who will be unavailable this week according to his coach.
Fairhope got only one runner past second against the steady Lopes.
"He's got a lot of movement on his pitches," Fuller said. "We pounded a lot of them into the dirt, hit the ball right at folks. He is just tough to get a read on. I'm glad we don't have to face him again."
The Pirates' best chance to score came in the sixth when they loaded the bases with no out. However, McQueen got Jerrod Hathcock to pop to short left, then struck out Beecher Faust and Landon Blair.
No Fairhope player had more than one hit.
Easton Fuller gave up only one run in his one inning pitched but took the loss.
Fairhope plays a single game at Daphne at 6 p.m. Thursday, then hosts a doubleheader beginning at 4:30 p.m. Friday.
Updated at 9:46 a.m. by Ben Thomas to indicate A.J. McQueen, not Devin Marks, relieved Lopes
Updated at 10:40 a.m. to fix first photo ID to Fairhope's Joey Wirtes.

Tom "name the name" Barrett left speechless...
An interview with a Weekly Standard reporter exposed a flaw in Mayor Tom Barrett's claim that ACT 10 would destroy the public schools. Barrett, looking like a fool, was asked to name a single school district hurt by ACT 10. He couldn't. Barrett was speechless. Par for the course, Barrett tried to change the subject - not once, but twice. And then, after being asked the same question for a third time, Barrett responded with "We can do an analysis and get back to you on that." (Will this be before or after June 5th, Tom?) Wasn't ACT 10 the catalyst for going after Walker? And if so, wouldn't Barrett have a lengthy list on hand of those school districts "gutted" (favorite liberal buzzword) by evil Governor Walker and ACT 10?
Read the entire article regarding Barrett being unable to answer such a simple question at The Weekly Standard (written by John McCormack/May 30th, 2012) link below:
"Barrett Can't Name Any Schools Hurt by Walker's Collective Bargaining Reforms"
- a couple of choice excerpts:
"Wisconsin governor Scott Walker is facing a recall election on June 5 because of the law he signed last spring to limit the collective bargaining power of public employee unions--a reform his opponents said would be a "disaster" and destroy public education in the state. Walker's Democratic challenger, Milwaukee mayor Tom Barrett, acknowledged this morning that the collective bargaining issue was the "flame that started this" recall election, but Barrett couldn't point to a single public school that has been harmed by Walker's reforms."
"Not only has Barrett been unable to point to a single school district hurt by Walker's reforms, he has been unwilling to say how he would have balanced the budget differently than Walker did. Barrett was also unable yesterday to name a single policy he would pursue to create jobs in the state of Wisconsin."
Oh my goodness. Barrett and his supporters are at a loss. A loss to truly explain just WHAT the recall efforts are even about. They cannot offer up any evidence that Walker's reforms have hurt the state. They cannot honestly dispute the positive jobs numbers and improved lower unemployment percentages. They cannot dispute the fact that Walker balanced the state budget without massive lay-offs or raising taxes. They cannot dispute the fact that Wisconsin has moved way up in the rankings in the area of best states to do business in. (From the Business Journal: Wisconsin now ranks 20th on the annual list, moving up from 24 in 2011, according to the magazine's latest Best & Worst States Survey. The rise follows a 17-place jump last year from 41st place in 2010.)
More importantly, they cannot offer up any reason WHY Tom Barrett should become the next governor.
June 5th is shaping up to be a solid Walker victory. Not only are the polls repeatedly showing Walker with a lead, Barrett has been unable to inspire or rev up the anti-Walker lefties to any measurable degree. Barrett has nothing to offer other than his silly "Walker e-mails/John Doe ads" that make me laugh out loud whenever they are on the radio or television. They are akin to a short comedy skit.
Barrett's also not getting the initial support anymore from the Obama White House. Obama may have helped get Barrett to run in the first place, but now has thrown him under the bus. Obama won't visit Wisconsin, since even he realizes the Dems are facing a losing battle.
The "silent majority" - Republicans, conservatives, and other pro-Walker people - who have not been nearly as vocal as the unionistas and other lefties during this anti-Walker campaign are waiting for the election as their chance to be heard loud and clear. (Sure, we had a few pro-Walker rallies, but nothing as prominent or well-covered by the media as the take over of the state capitol and other anti-Walker events. But that's OK.) The momentum and drive is on our side - we - the majority of the people in the state of Wisconsin - will take back out state come June 5th. We are sick and tired of the recalls - recalls whose foundation was little more than displeasure with legislation being passed that a minority didn't like. We are sick and tired of liberal activist judges halting passed legislation like Voter ID to keep lefties happy for the time being. Well, too bad. Our day - June 5th - will soon be here. The Walker supporters - by all accounts - are chomping at the bit to vote. One poster on another website summed it up with "I would crawl over broken glass to vote for Governor Walker." I think he speaks for a lot of us. Enough is enough.
June 5th will see Walker win - and the state will continue on the road to prosperity, smaller government, and lower taxes - all while remaining fiscally responsible.
REMEMBER - VOTE JUNE 5th for Walker and take back our state!!!
(* Oh, and for those who may be confused by the title of my blog - remember when claims of voter fraud in Milwaukee and the state were sloughed off and sneered at by a disbelieving Mayor Barrett with his statements: "just one name!" and "name the names..." Eventually many names of people who cheated in the past elections were provided. No response from the Mayor, of course.
So it is with such irony that when Tom Barrett himself was asked (three times) to verify his claim that ACT 10 has harmed schools by "naming the name!" of any school district as proof - JUST ONE NAME of ANY school district harmed by ACT 10 - he couldn't do it.)

Wile E. Coyote must be licking his lips. Lauren E. VanSteenvoort of Springfield is seeking government approval to put a chicken in every pot – or lot.
She is petitioning the city for approval to raise chickens at her home. Coyotes love chickens. They consider them better eating than cats, but you probably knew that.
Luckily for VanSteenvoort, there aren't many coyotes in Springfield's urban setting — yet. Fox also favor chickens, and there are more of them here than you might realize.
Her neighbors are just fine with the chickens. In fact, if she wins approval some of them also plan to raise chickens.
VanSteenvoort, who lives at 37 Parkwood St., is a 26-year-old preservation specialist who works for an architectural firm in Hartford. Mostly her work focuses on conversions of historic buildings. She might be leading the way to taking a chapter out of Springfield's history in the early 1800s, long before anyone ever imagined an urban setting.
In those days, barnyard critters such as chickens and geese were as common to backyards as crabgrass is today. Across America today there is a growing movement toward sustainability, with vegetable gardening and raising chickens such as VanSteenvoort's Wyandottes and Easter Eggers leading the way.
"It worked well back then. Probably around the '60s or '70s we decided cities weren't places for animals at all. Now that's changing again," she said.
Across the river in Agawam, Alan J. Griffin, 56, of 104 North St., has tried to get the city's goat by keeping his own goats in his backyard. Griffin says he needs milk provided by the goats for his wife, Suzanne, who has colitis and can't drink cow's milk.
In Griffin's case, the goatcapade has turned into a backyard brouhaha, with the saga being hashed out in court since 2006. A judge told the city earlier this month that it could remove the goats because the area wasn't zoned for farm animals and the neighbors have complained.
Along the way, Griffin has become a bit of a media maestro who is litigiously and politically butting away at the rules of the road. He held a press conference in his yard a few days ago to announce that the five goats had been sequestered at an undisclosed location in Huntington. He wouldn't say exactly where, but he did mention that a Shriner was keeping them.
Through all of this, Griffin hasn't said much about the fact that goat's milk isn't as hard to find as hen's teeth. It's available and can be purchased. Politically, he has announced that he's running for mayor of Agawam, which I suppose means he believes that if he's elected he can exempt himself from the city's ordinances, or enact new ones that allow a goat in every yard.
When I tried to reach Griffin to discuss this further on Friday, there was no answer at his home and the telephone mailbox was full. Probably lots of messages left by the Fox network.
In general, farm animals and city dwellers don't play well together, and there have been sporadic clashes since cities became urbanized. It all reminds me of chapters in my own life.
As a young reporter in the early 1970s, I wrote a similar story about a Virginia Beach, Va., man whose neighbors were complaining about his pet pig. The man was vowing to fight City Hall. When I arrived for the interview, the man had just finished bathing the 220-pound hog and was sprinkling a man's cologne (Brut, I believe) on the animal and talking about how the grunting ham was a beloved pet.
The pig even had a name – "Sweet Lips." Both man and pig wound up on the Johnny Carson Show, and in the state's courts. He lost the court battle and the pig but seemed more than a little satisfied with his 15 seconds of fame.
I've never written about a fight for chickens in urban America, but in another chapter of my life I bought a Barred Rock rooster, probably in a subconscious effort to reconnect with my childhood upbringing on a farm loaded with chickens, pigs, cows and a mare named "Peppy." Long story short, the Barred Rock dubbed "Sigmund" had no mates and regularly attacked me for creating issues in his life, with his spurs occasionally bringing blood. He disappeared one day. I like to think he ran away to a hen house across the ridge and decided life was better there.
Truth be known, he probably tried to express his frustration to a coyote and found himself at a disadvantaged spot in the food chain.
Time will tell how compatible laying hens will be in Springfield, but I suspect the Agawam goats are goners for good.

In 1996, about $554 billion in payments were made for health care services and supplies used by the U.S. population not in the military or living in institutions. The average cost per person who had medical expenses was about $2,400. However, half of these people had medical expenses of less than $559.
The charts presented here show that only small proportions of the population had expenses for inpatient hospital care (6.8 percent) and home health services (2.4 percent), although these health services had the highest average annual expenses ($11,492 for inpatient hospitalization and $5,191 for home health care).
These estimates from the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality's Medical Expenditure Panel Survey (MEPS) are lower than those recently released by the Health Care Financing Administration's National Health Accounts (NHA). This is primarily because the MEPS Household Component is focused on the civilian noninstitutionalized population and does not collect data on people in the military or living in institutions such as nursing homes or prisons. It also omits costs for program administration and revenues not associated with patient care. When the surveys are adjusted for these and similar differences, the MEPS expenditure estimates are not substantially different from those contained in the NHA.

BIRMINGHAM, Alabama -- Ramsay and Parker are both maybe a combined five miles away from the Birmingham-Jefferson Convention Complex Arena.
The Rams endured a gritty Central-Tuscaloosa team on Thursday afternoon to set up a hometown showdown with Parker at 7 p.m. on Saturday for the Class 5A boys state basketball championship.
Ramsay advanced to that stage thanks to its shooting prowess. The Rams only shot 38 percent from the line, but blended that with an impressive 7 for 16 effort from three-point territory.
The No. 8 Rams (23-13) made five of their 10 three-point tries in the first half and than also sank 22 of their 30 free throw attempts to stay ahead of a Central team that made 45 of its shots.
"The game plan was to go inside a lot," Ramsay coach Kelly Cheatham said. "We didn't have as much success going inside to (6-foot-4) Albert (Luke) as we thought we would. Whatever we needed to do on the court, the guys pulled through and did it. We need to make the 3 and they did it."
The Northeast Regional Tournament champions took a 31-23 lead at the half.
The Falcons (20-8) made the final score seem a tad more competitive thanks to a three-pointer that banked in with one second left on the clock.
Rewind the clock three minutes. That's when the Central Regional champions led 56-53 with 3:00 left on that same scoreboard. The Rams rallied and took the lead for good at 57-56 with 2:29 to go after a lay-in from senior Mitchell Baldwin.
"We ran a press break and I was roaming the middle," Baldwin said. "I saw the pass lofted in the sky and said 'You got to go get it' and once I got it there was no chance. I was taking it to the rack."
The Falcons made it a 59-57 game with 1:14 left, but the Rams closed their season down with a 7-0 run to go up 66-57 with 18 seconds remaining.
Baldwin had four free throws in the final minutes. The future Midshipman at Navy scored 17 of his 18 points in the second half. Junior Jonathan Etheridge also had 18 to lead the team.
Those were just the initial two horns of a balanced scoring attack. Junior Jordan Millsap added 16 and sophomore center Albert Luke contributed another 10.
Those good works offset that slow start from Baldwin.
"As of late that is mainly what we have had to do," he said. "I haven't gotten off to great starts but they have always controlled it and held down the fort and seemed to pick it up."
Jevaris Richey led the Falcons in scoring with his 23 points, but he had 17 of those in the first half. Eddie Harris also had 18 for Central.
"It was a very hard-fought game," Central-Tuscaloosa coach Robert Watson said. "I really believed my players played as hard as they could and we had some unfortunate turnovers."
Watson cited his team's 14 for 24 effort at the line as a key factor in the loss. Harris had 14 of those 18 in the second half to keep his Falcons in it.
"It could have went either way," Watson said. "But Ramsay was the best team today."
Ramsay and Parker have met two times this season. The sixth-ranked Thundering Herd won two of those meetings. He said that Parker's 6-foot-6 Marquell Oliver will be a handful.
"We really have to do a good job of blocking out and rebounding the basketball," Cheatham said. "Parker goes hard to the offensive boards. We need to take care of the basketball as the press and get turnovers off that press."
The Rams will play for the program's third state title. Ramsay also won the state championship in 2006 and 2010.

But this week, as the last tool and die makers leave the plant at 300 36th St. SW, Holt said he's growing more hopeful about the future of the location.
Any reuse is unlikely to replace the 3,000-plus stamping jobs lost there. But the 2-million-square-foot plant built in 1935 could eventually be dismantled and a new industrial park grow in its place.
Talks began two weeks ago between the city and the plant's new owners, Motors Liquidation Co., plus federal and state environmental agencies, to discuss the future of the 94-acre site.
The discussions came in the wake of General Motors Corp.'s trip in and out of bankruptcy this year. It cast off unneeded stamping and assembly plants into Motors Liquidation Co.
The shocker? The new owners are easier to work with.
"I think Motors Liquidation is a much better scenario for us than GM was," Holt said Tuesday. "With GM, we could get no information. We had no answers from them.
"In three or four months with Motors Liquidation, we talk to them on a regular basis. They ask, 'What else can we do?'"
Through the end of this year, GM is leasing its former plant to Motors Liquidation. When that cash flow stops, the transitional owners will need to act swiftly, Holt said.
"It takes about $3 million just to heat and light it at basic levels," he said. "They're wanting to do something -- and quick."
An entourage of local officials, neighborhood representatives, and school administrators recently toured the plant, then met to brainstorm ideas.
"It's a much different site," Holt said after taking a close look inside. "They're disassembling machinery and staging it for shipment. There are pieces of presses all over the place, and not nearly the number of people. It's darker."
Although a reuse plan might take six months, one scenario could have Motors Liquidation clean up pollution at the site, then donate it to the city.
In May, stamping production shut down and most of the workers left, taking buyouts, early retirement, or transfers to surviving GM stamping plants. Only 150 tool and diemakers and a crew of 100 dismantlers remained.
Last week, toolmakers who took transfers left the site, and the remaining diemakers will be laid off Thursday, said Greg Golembiewski, president of United Auto Workers Local 730.
"After that, it will just be people on equipment removal," Golembiewski said.

Raisin Scones Recipe
If you like raisins and scones. You will love this simple, irresistible, and delicious raisin scones recipe. These raisin scones are to die for.
2 cups all-purpose flour
1/3 cup sugar
1 tablespoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup butter
2/3 cup milk
1 beaten egg
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup Sun-Maid Natural Raisins
1 beaten egg yolk (for egg wash)
Roll out the dough on floured surface to 3/4-inch thickness. Using a 2-inch round cookie cutter, cut out the scones. Gather the scraps; reroll and cut out additional scones. Place the scones on prepared baking sheets, spacing apart.
Brush egg yolk over the tops of the scones. Bake scones until golden brown, about 15-20 minutes.
Serve warm.
I have never paid much attention to scones–I don't even remember the last time I had them, but it all changed when I was on my cruise vacation. Being on a giant ship 24 hours x 9 days—mostly sea bound—means that the best past time on board was to eat. Every afternoon, I had scones for my afternoon tea, and of course, a crepe or two. And then one fine day, I fathomed that scones are such great things to eat—under the shade on the deck overlooking the azure blue sea—over a cup of tea or tea.
So, that was how I discovered them and marked the start of my love affair with scones, especially raisin scones. I have always loved raisins and in this recipe, raisins give that extra sweetness and add moisture to the scones.

Melissa Ibarra, 23, visited a Kenner restaurant and started drinking. Problem is, she left her toddler alone in the car to cry, then drove off with the toddler unrestrained in the seat, police said.
They booked her with child endangerment, child desertion, drunken driving, reckless driving, driving with an open container of alcoholic beverage and driving on a suspended license.
Sgt. Brian McGregor said Ibarra left her 33-month-old child in the car Saturday while she drank at Taqueria Sanchez in the 900 block of Williams Boulevard. Outside, witnesses could hear the child screaming and beating on the vehicle's window, McGregor said.
Upon leaving, Ibarra drove away without belting down her child, police said. Witnesses and security guards from the restaurant followed, boxed in her vehicle in the 2000 block of Williams and called police.
Ibarra failed a field sobriety test and refused to take a breath test at police headquarters, McGregor said.
Her child was taken into protective custody and released to a guardian. The state Office of Community Services.
After booking, Ibarra, who gave her address as 1636 Newport Place, Kenner, was transferred to the Jefferson Parish Correctional Center in Gretna. She was released on $16,400 bond.
Attempts to reach Ibarra by phone Tuesday were unsuccessful.
The incident came less than three months after State Police arrested Ibarra at Interstate 10 and Transcontinental Drive in Metairie. After failing a field sobriety test there Oct. 28, Ibarra submitted to a breath test that put her blood-alcohol level at 0.17, double the 0.08 ceiling for driving in Louisiana, police said. She was booked with DWI, a charged that is pending on court.

Optimism prevails among state business leaders when it comes to economic recovery during the first quarter of this year.
The latest Alabama Business Confidence Index, a survey of nearly 250 executives, rose 7.1 points to 55.
That's an indication that recovery should be on solid ground this quarter, according to the Center for Business and Economic Research at the University of Alabama, which conducts the survey.
That level also is nearing the index's pre-recession reading of 56.8 in the third quarter of 2007. The index has been steadily improving sitting hitting a recession low of 31.5 in the first quarter of 2009.
For the metro Birmingham area, this quarter's business confidence rose 4.3 points to 52.2. More than 42 percent of area executives expect increased sales for their industries.
But that outlook is tempered with caution. The executives forecast modest contractions in profits and capital spending during the quarter, and 58 percent of firms expect no change in payrolls.
As for specific area industries, expectations are mixed. Executives in transportation, information, utilities, finance, insurance, real estate and retail trade are most optimistic, while those in construction, wholesale trade and professional, scientific, technical and other services do not expect better performance this quarter.
The Center for Business and Economic Research notes a recent local wave of development news. For instance, Birmingham officials helped break ground on a new downtown entertainment district and Westin Hotel last week.
"Ongoing developments and a spirit of cooperation are bringing a sense of positive momentum across the Birmingham-Hoover area," the report reads. "However, the pace of job recovery could be slow and challenges in the real estate sector remain."
And Birmingham still ranks last for business confidence among the state's other metro areas. Huntsville area business leaders are most optimistic, with a first quarter index reading of 60.3. Mobile is second, at 58, followed by Montgomery at 53.9.
Statewide, business leaders have a brighter mood about the national economy. Optimism in that area increased 13 points to 55.1 in the survey.Join the conversation by clicking to comment or e-mail Kent at email@example.com.

St. Charles Parish is looking for a new Emergency Preparedness Director, after incumbent Scott Whelchel accepted a similar job at Dow Chemical's Taft plant.
Parish President V.J. St. Pierre Jr. told the Parish Council on Monday that he will conduct a nationwide search for Whelchel's replacement.
"We hate to see him leave, but it's a promotion for his family," St. Pierre told the council on Monday, adding that the search for a new director will be extensive.
"I want to make sure we have the right person for the job," he said. "I don't just want a body."
Whelchel, a native of Broussard, and joined the parish in 2009 and after then-director Tab Troxler accepted a similar position at Dow. Troxler was elected parish assessor last year, and will take office on Jan. 1.
The parish is accepting applications for the position through Oct. 15.

BIRMINGHAM, Alabama -- Birmingham Mayor William Bell proposes creating a tourist transit system to transport visitors to downtown hotels and attractions in addition to the zoo, Vulcan Park and the botanical gardens.
The city recently began requesting proposals from private companies to operate what Bell calls the "Birmingham Explorer" system. If approved and funded by the City Council, a pilot program could begin by late summer or early fall, Bell said.
He said the proposal is the result of conversations earlier this year with officials at Vulcan Park, the Birmingham Zoo and the Birmingham Botanical Gardens. "The key is having the right type of transportation to get people to all those venues," Bell said. "When people are not familiar with the city, it makes it difficult to get around."
Darlene Negrotto, Vulcan Park and Museum president and CEO, said visitors to the park often ask for help navigating to other sites. But linking all the attractions can be difficult, she said.
"We have had numerous occasions where folks will take public transit from Five Points South and walk up that long hill, and not only is it uncomfortable but it's not very safe either," she said. "There are so many cities where they have a successful tourist transit system that is used not only by visitors but by locals as well."
Negrotto said systems similar to the one proposed for Birmingham include Montgomery's new system as well as those in Chattanooga, Memphis and Louisville.
"The more that we make it easier for folks to go out and explore things here, the more they will go back home and spread the word," she said. "They are blown away by the beauty of this city and the cultural amenities we have. This will just be a step to make it easier to get around."
The DART, a circular operated by the Birmingham Jefferson County Transit Authority, already transports riders around downtown and Southside, but Bell said that service is limited.
"We want to have something specifically for those attractions," he said.
Bell said the need for such a system will grow with the development of projects around town including the hotel and entertainment district at the Birmingham Jefferson Convention Complex and the sports complex at Fair Park.
Rather than replacing or competing with DART, Bell said the new transit service could supplement it.
The mayor said the BJCTA is limited in offering new services because federal regulations over the transit system require that private companies are given the chance to provide services not offered by the public agency. Only if such companies cannot or will not provide the service can it be offered to the BJCTA, he said.
However, the transit authority's director, Peter Behrman, offered a different interpretation of the rules. He said the federal limitation applies only to charter service, which is limited to specific riders. The transit service could provide the proposed new service without Federal Transit Administration limitations because the plan calls for a "special service" open to everyone rather than a "charter service" limited to specific riders, Behrman said.
"We can redo the DART to pretty much match what they want to do with private entities and it won't cost them any more money, with the caveat that they don't cut us," he said.
John Wright Jr., a Birmingham resident and mass transit advocate, called the concept of a tourist transit service a good one, but said it should be incorporated into the existing system.
"It should be well thought out to make it succeed," he said. "You do not want it to fail, and you have to promote it heavily at every point where you have tourists, conventions and hotels. I'm all for it, but I agree that in these days of limited funding for transit, let's not create a whole new system that's untried."
The city spent $10.8 million for transit service in the last budget year but is budgeted to spend $7.9 million in 2012. In addition, the BJCTA gets $3.5 million in property tax generated in the city.
Councilwoman Kim Rafferty, chairwoman of the council's transportation committee, called the proposed system a duplication of services. She said it would be insensitive and wasteful to create a new system at the same time the existing transit system flounders for lack of funding.
"It's not any different from DART," Rafferty said. "Why is the city going to spend a ton of money moving tourists around when we hesitate to move citizens around? It's fiscally irresponsible."
She said the city should talk with the existing publicly supported transit system about modifying DART service to accommodate the new concept.
There are no cost estimates for Bell's proposal, but he said some of the expense could be offset through public-private partnerships with businesses benefiting from the new transit stops. Details are still being outlined, he said.
The council has not yet been briefed on the project.
Questions raised
Councilman Johnathan Austin, whose district includes downtown, said he likes the concept but has several questions.
"I don't know if the idea is something that we should be addressing at this point," Austin said. "Do we have the tourists, and are we really looking at all the available resources we have before we go out and try to pay for it?"
Austin said the city must ensure the existing transit system is as efficient as possible.
"The transit system we have is not fully funded," Austin said. "Before we start to deal with prospective tourists, we need to deal with a perpetual problem of people not having their needs met."

Amidst the hazy state of the league, the NFL Draft will go on.
If recent years and television ratings are any judge, this year's annual selection meeting will go down as the most widely anticipated ever. Despite the current lockout, or perhaps partly because of the current labor situations, fans are flocking to the draft in record numbers.
The following slideshow takes an in-depth look at the 100 players that grade out highest in my evaluation. These rankings do not indicate where the athletes will be selected on draft weekend, but rather where I personally value them. It is still just March and there will undoubtedly be some movement from top-to-bottom by late April.
Be sure to take this early look at the rankings that will accompany me to Radio City Music Hall this year.
