The last time Antonio Thompson talked to his brother, Adrian asked him if he was still getting married. He wanted him to maintain a path toward stability.
"'I done did time for me and you. You don't want another man raising your kids,'" Antonio Thompson recalled his brother saying.
Joseph Williams was convicted of malice murder June 26 for gunning down Adrian Thompson in the parking lot of Peppers Market & Grocery on E.E. Butler Parkway in Gainesville on June 3, 2013, after yearslong animosity between the two bubbled to the surface in a violent confrontation.
Family and friends of Williams asked a judge to give him the same chance of redemption that Thompson experienced after years in and out of prison. He will not have that chance, a judge ruled Thursday in Hall County Superior Court.
Judge Jason Deal ruled a mandatory life with no parole sentence would apply to the case. The prosecution filed a notice of aggravating sentencing based on Williams' three felony convictions prior to the trial, which began June 23.
Adrian Thompson was in a position to give his brother advice on stability, after all, having reinvented himself as a man of faith and family after years in and out of prison.
"The last thing he told (me) was 'I love you. I'll call you back in a minute,'" Antonio Thompson said.
That was eight minutes before he would get a text from his ex-wife saying she believed her cousin, Williams, had shot and killed Adrian Thompson.
"I read it so fast ... I brushed it off," Antonio Thompson said, troubled, but thinking to himself she must have been wrong.
Then he got a text saying Adrian Thompson had died. He called his brother back and didn't get an answer.
"I started shaking," he said. "I knew something was wrong."
Deal said even if the mandatory life without parole provision didn't apply, the facts of the case would have led him to the same conclusion denying Williams a future outside of prison.
"I don't think I have ever had a case where the evidence was so clear about the malice of the shooting," he said to Williams, referring to surveillance video footage of the incident. "You kept shooting until he quit moving."
Testimony painted Adrian Thompson as a man whose life was put back on the right path with a reaffirmed faith in God.
"I'm at peace because I know Adrian was a changed man. He's in the Kingdom," said his mother, Luvonne Lipscomb.
"Once he got his life right with Christ, I didn't have to worry about him no more."
Senior Public Defender Travis Williams said he believed there was room for redemption in Williams' character, like Adrian Thompson.
"I don't believe this is a circumstance where forever makes sense," he said.
Assistant District Attorney Shiv Sachdeva, the lead prosecutor on the case, said requests for mercy from the judge were in stark contrast to the "methodical" way Williams gunned Adrian Thompson down.
"The fact is the defendant did not have mercy on Adrian," he said.
Mary Nell Williams, mother of Joseph Williams, said her son had tried to avoid seeing Adrian Thompson, and that he would have left the parking lot if he thought he could. His main defense theory asserted Adrian Thompson provoked the confrontation, then Williams acted out of fear for his life.
"It doesn't make sense to lose two lives," she said. "We can learn from all of this."
The victim and his killer once were close friends who grew up together. But the relationship turned sour when Williams' ex-wife, Chassity Thompson, divorced him and married Adrian Thompson a few years later. She met Adrian Thompson in a halfway home for offenders transitioning from prison while Williams was incarcerated.
Despite the dramatic way they came together, the two families clung to a shred of cordiality for their children, to varying degrees of success based on Williams' volatile moods, Chassity Thompson said.
Joseph Williams also testified, speaking to the family and asking that they forgive him.
"I'm terribly sorry for the grief I've caused," he said. "Really, this is not for the judge but the ones who suffer for my actions."
Most of the friends and family of Adrian Thompson were stone-faced as he spoke, some nodding their heads or exchanging skeptical looks between one another.
But the younger Thompson brother, one of a handful of people who perhaps most epitomized how deeply intertwined the two families were, said he had forgiven Williams.
"I forgave you. I can't speak for nobody else, but I forgave you," he said. "I really love you, man, because God gave me the opportunity to forgive you and love you."
Deal said Antonio Thompson had "eloquently" articulated a sentiment that would heal the community, and urged Williams to find a purpose in prison.
"I don't think you're beyond redemption," he said. "I want you to know that."

You might know I'm not a fan of most seasonal decor, and the main reason behind that is that I would much rather invest my decorating dollars into something that will hang around for longer than a couple of weeks.
But, if I can source something or DIY it without allocating too much of my vase-allowance, I'm on board. Something that won't look out of place in our house, that will be useful in years to come, and can also double as party decor for those impromptu neighbourhood get togethers.
Those pumpkins? Started as this...
Three gourds, and two packs of mini-gourds set me back $10 ($2 each), along with some rhinestone stickers ($1 each) some faux flowers ($1), napkins ($1 each) and craft chalkboard paint ($1). Straws were $4 from HomeSense, so the total investment for this Halloween vignette was around $20. Not too shabby, especially since the "chalkboard" (painted canvas), straws, flowers and napkins can all be used throughout the year, and the painted gourds will make an appearance in many Octobers to come.
The plastic jars are also great for craft supply storage (or for Halloween, fill with spiders or eyeballs) and best of all, they cost just $3 for three.
This set of black frames was only $3! I thought they were separate frames but are in fact all attached, which turned out to make the perfect "wreath" to hang on the front door for Halloween! I'll share that finished project later on this week!
And these doodle-rific notebooks made the Halloween cut off purely because her eyes and face terrify me - but they are cute none the less and for $2, who can complain about creepy eyes?
Have you found any dollar store finds perfect for Halloween?

Family Finances: Jangales should raise equity exposure to achieve all goals
The family has a strong asset base, no liabilities and invests regularly in equity, but has approached us for direction. Given their high rate of savings and disciplined approach to investing, it should not be too difficult for them to achieve all their goals.
These include buying a second house, saving for their kid's education and marriage, as well as the education of their future child, and build a corpus for their retirement.
After accounting for their expenses, insurance and investments, they are left with a monthly surplus of Rs 23,776. The couple has done well in saving about 35% of their income, but they need to invest it well.
Before they begin planning for their goals, they need to cover themselves against risk. The Jangales spend Rs 29,500 a month and Pankaaj Maalde, chief financial planner at Apnapaisa.com, recommends a contingency fund equal to six months' expenses. The couple's fixed deposit of Rs 1 lakh and savings account balance of Rs 1 lakh can be allocated to this goal.
They should invest it either in liquid plus funds or a savings-linked fixed deposit account. Next, the Jangales should focus on their insurance needs. Despite being diligent savers and investors, they have failed to buy adequate health and life covers.
The Jangales pay a premium of Rs 4,166 a month for life insurance policies worth Rs 9.25 lakh. They have three traditional insurance plans and three single premium plans, of which two are Ulips. The cover is dismal and has the potential to undo any smart financial moves. So, Maalde recommends that they surrender the traditional plans and buy an online term plan worth Rs1 crore, which will cost nearly Rs 800. As for health insurance, the Jangales have a cover of Rs1.5 lakh from New India Assurance, besides a Rs 5 lakh cover from Prashant's employer.
Maalde says that the family's current cover has a room rent sub-limit of 1% of the cover. So, they should port to one that does not have this limit 45 days before the next renewal, and increase the cover to Rs 3 lakh for each member. They are also advised to buy individual top-up plans of Rs 5 lakh, and a Rs 25 lakh accident disability cover, as well as a Rs25 lakh online critical illness plan for Prashant.
The premium will be about Rs 2,175 per month, and combined with the cost of term plan, it can be taken care of by the premium saved on the surrendered traditional plans. The couple can now start planning for their goals.
They want to buy a flat worth Rs 72.5 lakh in the next five years. Their existing home at Nashik can be allocated for this purpose, along with a plot of land that they had bought a few years ago, and which is currently valued at Rs 13 lakh. This will give them about Rs 55 lakh in five years, assuming a growth of 10% a year.
To accumulate the balance corpus of Rs 17.5 lakh, the couple must start a monthly SIP of Rs 30,000 in balanced funds for four years. However, they can redeem the amount after five years, when it has grown to the required level.
To build an education corpus of Rs 27.2 lakh for Aarya's education, the couple must start a monthly SIP of Rs 13,000 in a ratio of 90% in equity and 10% in the PPF after four years, that is, after the investment for the second home is over.
The couple is also planning another child and want to save Rs 40 lakh for his education. Besides, they want a marriage corpus of Rs 21.6 lakh for Aarya in 19 years. In both the cases, they must start monthly SIPs after four years in the same ratio as above. For the former goal, they should invest Rs8,000 a month, as well as Rs 4,000 a month for the latter.
The crucial goal is setting up a retirement corpus of Rs 4.5 crore in 19 years. However, since they cannot amass this sum in the given time, they will have to postpone retirement till the age of 60.
Their PPF and EPF balance will fetch nearly Rs 86 lakh for this goal. Their existing MF investments, surrender value of traditional plans, maturity value of single premium plans, bond investment and super annuation balance can also be used for the goal. The couple must discontinue their existing SIPs in mutual funds and shift them to HDFC Equity Fund after the lock-in period.
The maturity/fund value of single premium plans and bond proceeds should also be invested in equity funds. The surrender value of Rs 30,000 can be invested in Franklin India Bluechip Fund. All these are likely to give Rs 50 lakh at retirement. For the shortfall, they need to start a monthly SIP of Rs 15,000 in an equity fund after a rise in income in two years. In 22 years, this will amount to nearly Rs 3.1 crore.

Beyond "thinking outside the box," is it time to throw away the boxes?
Thomas Malnight
Business executives divide the world into boxes - geographic boxes, institutional boxes, industry boxes, organizational boxes, boxes for each player in the supply chain, and the list goes on. Why? Because boxes provide a basis for simplifying and structuring our world. They help us break down complex problems into manageable tasks, and they help us define the knowledge and skills required to succeed within each box. Yet in aiming to maintain simplicity through viewing the world in distinct boxes, business leaders are in fact creating a paradox, one that threatens the future of the organizations themselves as the world around them changes. What happens when these boxes no longer reflect reality because the world we operate in no longer fits nicely into them? How would business need to change if what happened between the boxes became just as important, or perhaps more important, than what happened inside them? As managers, how could we cope?

Santa Cruz de Tenerife, April 2014.- The Spa at Gran Hotel Bahia del Duque (www.bahia-duque.com), a company owned by the Group CIO (www.cio-company.com), has been chosen by the readers of the prestigious Spanish publication Condé Nast Traveler as the "BEST SPA IN SPAIN". Francisco Javier Zamorano, president of Compañía de las Islas Occcidentales (CIO), collected the award during the course of a party celebrated in Madrid last night, and was presented by the magazine's publishing director, Sandra del Río.
The Spa Bahía del Duque is a repeat in this category, which it has won twice before, last year and in 2011. Furthermore, this award joins the one it obtained in 2010 as "Best Resort in Spain".
In the words of Francisco Javier Zamorano, "it is always an honour for us to receive awards like these, especially when it is the readers themselves who choose and vote for their favourite places, as all our hard work is aimed at meeting the needs of the guests who visit us".
Inspired by the great climate and natural landscapes of the island of Tenerife, the Spa at Bahía del Duque Resort offers a menu of treatments and rituals based on the natural resources of the area where the hotel is located. Marine extracts, volcanic lava and aloe vera, indigenous raw materials of The Canary islands, are some of the ingredients that are used in developing the most innovative and amazing body and facial rituals that make up its treatment menu.
The Spa Bahía del Duque has 20 treatment rooms, 2 thalassotherapy treatment rooms, 5 outdoor cabanas and 2 VIP suites, as well as a spectacular outdoor thalassotherapy circuit, which allows you to enjoy the therapeutic benefits of water from the Atlantic Ocean which bathes the coast of the Hotel and which is heated for its use in the Spa.

Just kidding! I'm a single woman looking to mingle with a nice guy. Not into one night stands (whatever that entails) but the thought is not too pleasant. I am a confident lady who likes to laugh and have fun.
I love being around people and attempt to make people feel at home- no matter where I'm at. I love going to movies, don't mind sitting quietly and reading a book or watching a game on TV. I like horse racing and have enjoyed car races - especially jet fueled races(mmm so loud)!!!
I'm thinking of writing a dating questionnaire to help people navigate through Internet dating sites, because you never know who someone really is...
I make awesome dinners. And my future Son in law loves my dessert experiments!
I like to try all kinds of food- ok- no live fish or bugs! But I'm up for a challenge.
I have had a love for books all my life so there's always one around me. Thank God for a Kindle.

Zach Mettenberger's long wait finally ended on Saturday when the Tennessee Titans took the former LSU quarterback with the second pick of the sixth round (No. 178 overall).
Mettenberger had been projected to go as high as the second round, but health concern saw his stock drop.
Four other quarterbacks went ahead of Mettenberger Saturday, including Aaron Murray of Georgia to Kansas City and AJ McCarron of Alabama to Cincinnati, both in the fifth round.
Three picks after Mettenberger, running back Alfred Blue became eighth LSU player taken when the Houston Texans tabbed the ex-Hahnville High standout.

THE new headteacher of a Bramley school, which has faced a turbulent few years, has pledged to build on recent improvements.
Andy Higgs said he was excited about what the future holds after taking the top job at Bramley C of E Primary School, in Bramley Lane.
The school has faced some tough challenges in recent years, culminating in January 2013 when it was put into special measures and graded 'inadequate' by Ofsted. Former headteacher Ann Berresford quit after the rating.
Under interim headteacher Lyn Downes the school made improvements and came out of special measures. It is currently rated as 'requires improvement'.
Mr Higgs, who was previously head of Lambourn C of E Primary School in West Berkshire, said he hopes to build on the recent improvements.
He said: "I want this school to be 'outstanding' and I'm confident that we will be able to achieve that.
"I am very lucky to have the support of the parents, the staff and the governors; it is a real team effort.
"The kids are fantastic, although I find that they are great wherever you go."
He said that his faith is very important to him, and acts as the bedrock for how the school operates.
He said: "We are a Church of England School and that is key to the way in which we do things."
The numbers of pupils at the school is set to rise in the next few years, due to a rising local population.
As reported in The Gazette last year, five new classrooms were built and the existing assembly hall expanded to accommodate 105 extra pupils.
Mr Higgs said: "There is obviously a need for more school places and it's good that we are able to meet that demand.
"The number of pupils will rise with each intake for a few years and I'm confident that we have the facilities to deal with this."

(Reuters) - Canadian National Railways said it has sold two rail line segments in the greater Toronto region to Metrolinx, Ontario's regional transport agency, for C$310.5 million.
Metrolinx is buying a line that runs from Rosedale Valley road north through the Don Valley to CN's main east-west freight line near the Toronto-York region border. The line is a part of CN's Bala subdivision.
GO Transit, Metrolinx's inter-regional transit system in Ontario, links Toronto to the greater Toronto area, which covers the city as well as the adjoining municipalities of Durham, Halton, Peel and York. Its Richmond Hill line runs through a part of CN's Bala subdivision.
CN's is also selling a part of its Oakville subdivision, starting from a point in the Etobicoke area of Toronto and terminating in Oakville, Ontario.
Last year, Metrolinx bought a segment of CN's Kingston subdivision for C$299 million.
Shares in CN were trading flat at C$79.74 on Tuesday on the Toronto Stock Exchange.

Hi everyone,
I have always had a keen eye for architecture and now in my third year of a B.Sc Chemistry degree with a minor in visual arts and art history, I am seriously considering changing my career path and applying for M.Arch in two years time.
The problem is, is that I don't know where to start with this whole process. I was looking through some portfolios people have shared in this forum, and it looks like people who have not had any background in architecture academically have interned at firms looking to get experience and it shows in their portfolio. Is this necissary, or frowned upon if I do not have this type of experience? I do not know how I would approach a firm looking to intern as an undergraduate with a background in Chemistry. I don't know how to incorporate design into my portfolio when all I have is creative pieces such as drawings and paintings (both of which I am very proud of).
I would really appreciate any help at all because I am a little confused, and I am not sure how to approach this because I really want to follow a career in architecture.
Thank you!
Just art is fine. Don't worry about finding an internship until after you have completed a studio class or two and decided that you actually like the experience. A summer program like the GSD's Career Discovery or the program at GSAPP might be a good way to help you determine if the field is right for you and further develop your application.
If I am you, I would...and my suggestion to you is to....
- start reading a lot of designboom.com, dezeen.com, archdaily.com just to get yourself familiar with architectural terms and trend.(not really important but may be helpful)
- start using programs such as, adobe suit, sketchup,rhino, Aucad, revit (this will help you to get a job in architecture firm)
- design something like chair, table, architecture competition and put in your portfolio
- work in the architecture firm for 3 years+ (normally I heard it's already hard to get into good master degree. 3 years of working is about the time)
- try glasshopper, a plug-in for rhino program.and use your chemistry knowledge to design something cool
- attend final presentation of architecture student to see how they present and how the prof commend.
etc etc,
anyway good luck, I hope you keep your hope alive haha. Also please concern the working life of architects, may be you wont like it.
Thank you both, I really appreciate the recommendations :)
We could shake hands. I am in my junior year of material chemistry degree and share the keen for architecture with you. I want to apply for summer program of architecture. It's a tough choice for me to choose between Intro to Arch in GSAPP and [IN]ARCH in UCB.....Maybe we could see each other in the studio this summmer.
I'm really glad to hear of someone who is going through the same process as I. Unfortunatley, I do live in Canada and as far as I am concerned, there are no summer architecture programs here. Best of luck to you and keep me updated on how things are going. How many years down the road until you finish your degree and start applying to schools?
Apologies for the delay in response. I will graduate next summer so that I have to start applying this autumn. That's why I want to go to summer program. I have decided to go to GSAPP in July. I think it is a chance for me to gain experience related to arch.
Will the graduate schools in Canada enroll students whose major are not architecture? I learned that in US, the students with other majors could apply for MArch 1, which is 3 years.
We could keep in touch and share our experience and information.
All my best
As far as I'm concerned, each school here is different. There are some that are a bit longer (4 years) but require a co-op program which could be very beneficial to gain work experience as well as some contacts for future employment. Others vary from 2 to 3.5 years. Each program is different.
I would certainty like to keep in touch with how your application is coming along as well!
Hey guys! I'm a chemistry major too! I just graduated and want to study architecture as well. I'm looking into summer programs in California.
emdubour you are probably way ahead of me since you have actually taken arts courses, while I did not. All I have are bad digital illustrations that need serious critiquing.
Ideally I'd like to stay in the bay area and attend Berkeley's summer institute in environmental design. Does it matter if it's called environmental design or not? That confused me a little.
Or are programs in LA very good as well?
Is a portfolio a deciding factor to get into these programs?

It's not work when you love what you do.
Once I discovered Etsy, it took me over a year to work up the courage to open a shop. I pondered, contemplated, and then pondered some more. But I always chickened-out in the end. Finally in 2010 I took the plunge and haven't looked back. Welcome to my little corner of Etsy. Thanks for stopping by.
Over the years I've come to specialize in Mother & Baby animal designs. It all started with a sterling silver wire giraffe and a request to add a little baby to it. Then came elephants, hippos, bears, pigs, and many others. Along the way I discovered precious metal clay (PMC). It's a fantastic medium to work with. It's recycled fine silver particles in an organic binder that has a clay-like consistency. When you fire it in a kiln, the binder burns away and you are left with .999 fine silver. I work mostly in PMC now and apply my own artwork to each piece. So much fun!
Most of my items are made-to-order meaning I don't keep them in stock, but make them for you once you place an order. My production time is typically about 2 weeks. Sometimes I can get things shipped sooner, but other times life interferes and I need the whole 2 weeks.
Thank you for taking the time to learn a little more about me and my Etsy shop. If you ever have any questions, I would love to chat with you. And thank you for supporting Handmade. I couldn't do it without you.

Shop policies
Accepted payment methods
- Accepts Etsy Gift Cards and Etsy Credits
If you are ordering a custom piece of jewelry, a non-refundable deposit may be required.
Wisconsin residents will be charged 5.5% sales tax on the order total, including shipping.
If it's in stock, it will ship within two business days. If it's a made-to-order piece, my production time is 1-2 weeks before shipping but can be longer around gift-giving holidays. Each item's title and description tells whether it's ready-to-ship or made-to-order.
Beautifully and ready for gifting! I ship my jewelry in pretty gift boxes tied with ribbon. Inside the box, your jewelry will be sealed in a small zip bag with a piece of anti-tarnish paper. I always include a receipt unless you ask me not to. A bubble mailing envelope is the final layer of protection. If it's a gift, I would be happy to include a personal note on a pretty little card. Just ask. :)
Orders within the US are shipped First-Class Mail and include tracking. When your order is shipped, you'll receive a shipping notification from Etsy which includes the tracking number. (These notifications like to hide in spam and junk mail folders so be sure to check there.)
International orders are shipped First-Class Package International Service and will sometimes include tracking, depending on the destination. When your order is shipped you will receive a shipping notification. Please allow 4-6 weeks for it to arrive. PLEASE BE AWARE that you are responsible for any customs fees, duties, or taxes that your country may impose. Contact your local postal service or customs agency for information regarding the possible charges.
Refunds and Exchanges
If you would like to return your jewelry, please contact me first. I will accept returns of non-personalized items within 10 business days as long as the item is in new and unused condition. Please return it using the same type of packaging that was used to ship it to you. You will be responsible for the return shipping charges. Once I receive it, I will issue a refund minus the original shipping charges.
I do not accept returns of personalized or custom-ordered items. Personalization includes names, dates, initials, or any other characters that have been added specifically for you.
Additional policies and FAQs
Perfumes, lotions, hair spray, and swimming pool chlorine will cause silver jewelry to tarnish quickly. Also never use any sort of jewelry dip to clean it. They can remove the finish and are just generally too harsh.
Please keep in mind that your computer monitor may show colors differently than mine. Because of this, I try to describe the color of beads or stones as accurately as possible.
I take all of my photos with a macro lens which makes the jewelry appear larger than it actually is. I always include measurements and a photo that shows scale. Please refer to an actual ruler to get a better idea of the size.
My jewelry is not intended for children. Many of my pendants are small and could be a choking hazard.
More information
Frequently asked questions
Can I purchase a pendant without a chain?
Yes! Send me a message and I will be happy to add a 'No Chain' option to the listing for you.
Gift wrapping and packaging
Your jewelry will arrive packaged in a cocoa-colored gift box tied with a ribbon, all ready to give to someone special, yourself included. :)
Can you engrave the back of the pendant?
No, I don't have engraving equipment. The type of personalization I offer is hand-stamped on a new layer of silver and attached to the back of the pendant. This is available for most pendants that are 5/8" diameter or larger. Extra charges apply. My Tiny and Teeny Tiny pieces are too small for personalization.
VAT is not included.
I do not collect VAT on international orders since I am in the US. Therefore it is not included in the purchase price of your jewelry. You will be notified by your government if any import taxes and/or handling fees are due.

Browning wants more early voting sites
Florida's elections chief plans to ask the state Legislature to expand the number of early voting sites before the next election, saying the law simply doesn't permit enough sites to handle demand.
Speaking to a national conference of elections officials and voting experts in Washington on Tuesday, Secretary of State Kurt Browning also said local elections supervisors need more flexibility for when and where to offer early voting.
Florida law permits early voting only at elections supervisors' offices and branches, city halls and public libraries, amounting to a total of 267 sites statewide in November — meaning hours-long waits for many of the 2.6-million people who opted for in-person early voting.
"Any time you try to run that many people through that many polling places for that many hours, you are asking for trouble," Browning told attendees at the conference, which was sponsored by the Pew Center for the States.
Browning said he doesn't have a set number of early voting sites in mind, but envisions expanding the options to include convention centers, public meeting rooms and the like.

Updated: A MOTORCYCLIST has been killed in a road accident near Towton.
The 42-year-old man, who has been named locally as Trevor Peacock, was riding a red Honda motorcycle on the A162 between Towton and Scarthingwell Golf Club on Wednesday evening, heading in the direction of Sherburn-in- Elmet.
He was involved in a head-on collision with a silver Saab 95 travelling in the opposite direction.
Mr Peacock, of Kirk Hammerton Lane, Green Hammerton, near York, was pronounced dead at the scene.
He is the first motorcyclist to be killed on the county's roads this year. The driver of the Saab, a 38-year-old woman from Leeds, was arrested in connection with the incident and was released on police bail as inquiries continued.
A post-mortem examination was carried out on Mr Peacock yesterday morning to establish the cause of death. North Yorkshire coroner Rob Turnbull has been informed and an inquest was expected to open today.
Police would now like to speak to anyone who witnessed the crash itself or saw either vehicle before the accident.
Anyone with information should phobe PC David Hunter on 0845 6060247.
Mr Peacock's death comes just over a week after police officers, firefighters and others from the emergency services launched their latest campaign to reduce motorcycle fatalities on North Yorkshire's roads.
The widow of a dead biker also helped launch the North Yorkshire 95 Alive road safety campaign for 2010. Last year 15 motorcyclists were killed in the county.
Road-safety campaigners will be out at motorcycle meeting places throughout the region over the coming months and at the weekend were at the Sun Inn at Norwood, near Harrogate, and Squires Café in Sherburn in Elmet.

TWO men and a woman have been arrested on suspicion of drugs offences after a series of early-morning police raids in Cumbria and Manchester.
Officers from Lancashire Police worked with Greater Manchester Police and Cumbria Police to execute search warrants at five addresses at around 6am this morning.
Four addresses were in Manchester, while a fifth was searched in Kirkby Stephen, Cumbria.
Around £5,000 in cash and three vehicles were seized by officers.
A 41-year-old man, a 54-year-old man and a 24-year-old woman - all from Manchester - were arrested on suspicion of conspiracy to supply class B drugs and taking prohibited articles into a prison.
All remain in police custody where they are being questioned by detectives.
The arrests come after police seized drugs and mobile phones at HMP Garth in September last year.
Detective Sergeant Nick Hills, from Chorley CID, said: "We are committed to tackling the supply and use of drugs across Lancashire and further afield.
"We work closely with colleagues from other forces as well as the prison service to combat drug supply and to take action against anyone we suspect to be involved with them.
"I would urge anyone who has any information about drugs to tell us so that we can continue to take action."
Information about drugs can be reported to the police on 101 or to Crimestoppers, anonymously, on 0800 555 111.

Offshore transport services firm CHC Helicopter reported Saturday that it has temporarily suspended all of its AS332-L2 Super Puma helicopters worldwide after Friday's crash in the North Sea that left four people dead.
Sixteen passengers and two crew members were on board the aircraft, said CHC. The firm added that 17 people, including three of the dead, have been accounted for, while one remains missing.
The helicopter, carrying oil and gas workers, was on approach to Sumburgh Airport on the Shetland Islands when it lost contact with air traffic control. According to CHC, it landed in the water approximately two nautical miles west of Sumburgh.
The Maritime Coastguard Helicopter from Sumburgh along with other rescue services promptly responded to the scene, CHC said.
The AS332-L2 Super Puma had travelled from Aberdeen to the North Alwyn platform and then on to the Borgsten Dolphin (mid-water semisub) rig before heading towards Sumburgh.
Total E&P UK issued a statement confirming that one of its employees was among the passengers and that other passengers represented 12 separate contractor organizations. The statement said that nine injured people were taken to hospital in Lerwick, Shetland, for treatment and that none of these is believed to be seriously injured.
Total said in addition to its emergency response, crisis management and relative response teams being mobilized Friday evening, "all necessary resources have been made available to provide every possible support and assistance to those who had been on board the flight and their families".
CHC Regional Director for the western North Sea Mark Abbey said at a press conference Saturday:
"CHC will not enter into any speculation as to what caused the incident but rest assured a full investigation will be carried out in which we will co-operate fully with all the regulatory bodies and share any learnings with the industry."
In a separate statement issued by trade body Oil & Gas UK, Chief Executive Malcolm Webb said:
"Oil & Gas UK expresses its profound sorrow at the news of the deaths and injuries resulting from yesterday's helicopter ditching off Shetland. Our thoughts are first and foremost with all who were on this flight, their families and their friends and we send our deepest condolences to the loved ones of all of those who have so tragically lost their lives.
Oil & Gas UK added that the Helicopter Safety Steering Group met Saturday afternoon to discuss the accident and has taken the precautionary measure of recommending temporary suspension of all Super Puma commercial passenger flights to and from offshore oil and gas installations in the UK.
The incident occurred just two weeks after a different variant of the Super Puma, the EC225, returned to service after problems with the helicopter's main vertical gear shaft caused two ditchings last year.

LONDON – Soon after the financial crisis began in 2008, I was at a meeting in the United States where a senior White House economic adviser put a question to me: "Do you think banks can be good citizens?"
As I started to answer "Yes," he interjected: "If your answer is 'yes,' think about the fact that no one will believe you."
His follow-up gave me pause. I've thought a lot about it over the past three years, which have been so difficult for the world economy.
The economic environment in which we are all living and working nowadays is particularly challenging. In Europe, the United Kingdom, and the US, we are feeling the effects of the unsustainable levels of public and private debt accrued in the years before 2008. Spending cuts are being put in place by governments and households alike, with varying degrees of public acceptance and social unrest.

After talking with some people over the past couple of weeks, it's good to know I'm not alone in the whole car connection thing. Often you spend more time with your vehicle than you do your own family and friends. I think the part that bothers me the most is it's going to the "graveyard" for parts, and not going to be driven anymore.
Third gear blew out, which we all know is an important gear. I decided after a lot of thought it was in my best interest to purchase a new vehicle. Some people like to refer to Ford Explorer's as "Exploder's." Maybe some konk out early, not this one. I put hardly any money into it other than the occasional oil changes and general upkeep. RIP ol' trusty vehicle!

Video clips from performers at the festival are available, together with reviews from critics, and festival goers do not need a third-generation mobile phone to watch them.
The service, which is available for free, provides an indicator of how people could interact with large events like this in the future.
How it works
Mobile networks have been offering reviews and information via text message for some time now, but this service takes that idea one step further.
The company behind it, Pocket Video, believes it offers people "a whole new way of interacting" with the Edinburgh Festival.
Anyone interested must register at the Pocket Video website, where they will be provided with a media player which is installed onto their phone.
When installed, a list of available video files is downloaded and organised into playlists, with one list for reviews, and another for recordings of actual festival performers, for example.
When you pick a video clip to watch, the program downloads it onto your phone at speeds of up to 26kbps, while providing more detail - in text - about the show featured.
The data is streamed onto the phones using GPRS data connections which work over standard second generation mobile networks.
A high-end processor is used to prepare the files, but a much less powerful chip can be used to play the video back, so the content can be seen on as many phones as possible.
Files are designed to start playing within a short period of time, and are stored on the phone to be watched as many times as required.
'Endless possibilities'
Festival newspaper Three Weeks has been helping to produce content for the new service. The paper's publisher, Chris Cooke, said that at events like the Edinburgh Festival, mobile media really comes into its own.
"However, most of the shows have very visual components which you can't represent through SMS - so this technology opens up endless possibilities."
Performers have been very quick to make use of the new technology, according to Mr Cooke.
"The festival is a very competitive place, full of outgoing performers - so
when you point a camera at someone they just start talking," he said.
Crews employed by Pocket Video have been touring the streets of the Scottish capital during the festival, demonstrating the service to a generally favourable response.
When shown the service, Edinburgh resident Emma Johnstone said she thought it
would be "dead easy to use", once she got used to it, but that there were
would be other benefits for the city.
"The flyers used to promote the shows are such a waste of paper - this'd be
much better for the environment," she said.
Network issues
More than 90% of people questioned at the festival would use their mobiles to watch
video, according to the company behind the service.
However, Alan Ogilvie, Pocket Video's director, believes that the mobile
networks will play a major part in determining whether the service is a
"GPRS works well, when it is working well, though we have recently suffered
from the knock-on effects of events such as the power failure in the United
States," he said
While they have had, on the whole, "a very good reaction from the networks",
Mr Ogilvie says they could do more to help develop this and similar services.
"We have been unable to get access to network data that could help us
understand how we can make our service better and more stable.
"GPRS costs are also fairly high. But some networks are encouraging customers
to use more data, so hopefully this will bring the cost down."
If the networks can provide a stable, cost-effective service, then the belief
does seem to be, that mobile video could transform people's festival
experience, although widespread acceptance could take time.
Or, as one of the Pocket Video crew members put it; "no one who looks over 40
goes for it".

New Avengers Black Widow Scene Online
If you're hoping to watch Avengers Assemble later this month without having seen anything from it beforehand, click away now - because we've got 43 seconds of ass-kicking here you may want to wait to see on the big screen.
Still with us? Good. As you can tell from the grab below, the snippet Marvel has released centres on Scarlett Johansson's Black Widow making a phone call with her hands tied behind her back.
Now, though that's kinda-sorta-not-really that remarkable, it's what she gets up to after hanging up on Agent Coulson that's much, much, much more impressive.
Seriously, who knew you could hurt that many people while still (technically) sitting down? And, at one point, using just your hair?
And just to remind you of the previous trailers and teasers, here they are for you below.
Avengers Assemble - as the official title now reads in the UK - is out in the UK on April 26.

*** Following the brutal 62-39 loss to Rutgers at Petersen Events Center, the Panthers needed, if nothing else, to play well and, for the most part, they did in the tough-fought 62-57 loss at Marquette on Saturday.
The Panthers led by nine points in the first half, by four at halftime and, save for a sloppy, turnover-reft span of the second half, they outplayed the nation's No. 25 team in front of 18,000-plus fans at Bradley Center.
"We were right there," Ashton Gibbs said. "If we just cut the stops and cut the turnovers, we're going to win some games."
Added Jamie Dixon, "We did some really good things. I'm proud of how hard we played, but we didn't get it done. …Call it what you will, the losses are more than we've ever had. So obviously our kids are very disappointed because they played very hard, they played well, but we did not play well enough to win."
*** Redshirt freshman Isaiah Epps made his first career start at point guard, Pitt's third different starting lineup in four games. The move allowed Ashton Gibbs to return to his natural spot at shooting guard.
"I thought Isaiah played really well for us in his first start," coach Jamie Dixon said. "He's been playing better the last couple of weeks. We've gotten more and more confidence in him in practice. He played very steady out there."
Gibbs relished the break from running the point guard spot. The All-Big East guard had a career-high 29 points on 8 of 16 shooting, breaking his previous best of 27 against Connecticut in last year's Big East Tournament loss.
Epps, who had played 54 minutes all season, went 0 for 2 from the field with two assists, two steals and one turnover in 26 minutes.
All told, the Plainfield, N.J., product has 13 assists and one turnover in 80 minutes of action this season. But he continues to struggle shooting the ball, going 1 for 14 from the field and missing all 11 of his 3-point attempts.
"I think I did good, but I can do better," Epps said. "I think I kind of controlled the team today and made us run our offense correct. …I think I helped (Gibbs) a lot. That way he could have more energy to do his offensive stuff and have energy on the defensive side, too. My being the point guard and giving him the ball was good today."
Gibbs gave high marks for Epps' debut.
"He did really well," Gibbs said. "I look forward to him playing more and more minutes. I think he really showed that he should be out there. He took advantage of his opportunity and now he's got to keep running."
*** Gibbs broke Jason Matthews' record as the all-time 3-point shooter in Pitt history. Gibbs went 4 for 8 from 3-point range, giving him 261 for his career. Matthews made 259 from 1987-91.
Gibbs needs two points to pass Julius Page (1,512) into 14th place all-time on the Pitt scoring list.
*** After the game, Jamie Dixon addressed the no-call goal-tending on Gibbs' first-half shot. Marquette's Jamil Wilson appeared to goal-tend a Gibbs' floater with 4:00 to play in the first half, but officials ruled it a blocked shot. Dixon argued vehemently during the timeout.
"They said it was a tough call," he said.
When asked about the play in the post-game press conference, Dixon noticed a Marquette-based reporter shaking her head and asked her opinion of the play.
"What was it? You're shaking your head," Dixon said.
She replied, "I thought it was a goal-tend."
*** Pitt committed 17 turnovers on Saturday, including five turnovers during a 13-0 Marquette run that turned a 41-36 lead into a 49-42 deficit that the Panthers would never overcome.
For all of Pitt's problems during the six-game losing streak, sloppy ball-handling is the biggest culprit. Pitt is ranked 298th in the nation turnover margin. Nasir Robinson had a career-high seven turnovers and Lamar Patterson had four, all during a 3:25 span of the second half.
"Turnovers let them back into the game and they took advantage," said Gibbs, who had one turnover in 37 minutes.
Said Dixon, "Turnovers has been a little bit of a bit of a problem, there's no question about that. We've tried to get better at it. But it has really cost. The most consistent thing (during the losing streak) has been some turnovers."
*** Dante Taylor picked up three fouls in four minutes and didn't play the final 14:26 of the game. Cameron Wright played five minutes as his poor play recently seems to have him anchored on the bench.
*** J.J. Moore went 0 for 3 from 3-point range, continuing his recent shooting slump. The 6-foot-6 sophomore, who is getting open looks, is shooting 11 percent (2 for 17) from behind the arc in the past six games.

SWINDON College Old Boys' season will come down to a make or break 80 minutes tomorrow as they face Chipping Norton at Pipers Way.
Old Boys are five points behind their second-placed rivals in the Berks/Bucks & Oxon Premier with the top two in the division going up.
And manager Martin Peaple says the club are desperate for promotion to one of the two Southern Counties leagues, the standard they last played at in the mid-noughties.
"Second place is there for the taking," he said.
"Everybody's right up for it because we've have a couple of seasons knocking on the door and now we're there again.
"We've improved year on year and we have a very good squad, and we want to get back into the Southern Counties."
Old Boys have double reason for motivation this weekend as Chipping Norton were the team that fought back from a significant deficit against them to triumph early in the campaign.
"The team this Saturday is as good as the team as we sent up to Chipping Norton at the start of the season," added Peaple.
"We were 18-0 at half-time and managed to lose by the end of the game.
"That's the kind of slip we can't afford to make on Saturday. This is a must-win game.
"They are the team we need to overhaul and we have to swap round the result we had there.
"If they beat us up there we don't mind, as long as we beat them down here and get the bonus point."
Centre Stu Knight is back in the reckoning after several months away as he has no RAF commitments this weekend.
Meanwhile, Swindon forward Paul Daniels says the Greenbridge Road are hopeful of maintaining their strong home form in the Wiltshire derby with Salisbury this weekend.
He said: "We've been good at home this year and hopefully that will be the same again on Saturday and we will set the tempo "When we play teams like Salisbury and Witney there's never much in it, it's all on the day.
"We're definitely confident having won three in a row away from home, although Salisbury have had some good results as well recently.
"But we've got a really strong squad this season and have players like Steve Tait who do the dirty work in week in, week out."
In Southern Counties South, lowly Supermarine face Weymouth at home, while Wootton Bassett have no league game.
Lower down the ladder in Dorset & Wilts 2 North, Cricklade entertain Wootton Bassett 2nds and fairford visit Supermarine 2nds.

Laurie Daley says he has no plans to ''crucify'' Blake Ferguson after the star Canberra Raiders centre left an emerging Origin players camp early without informing the NSW coach.
Ferguson departed the camp at Coogee a fortnight ago to deal with an undisclosed personal issue, and Daley was only told of his absence by Raiders fullback Josh Dugan the following day at training.
While he hasn't spoken to Ferguson since the incident, the pair were reunited when Daley's Indigenous All Stars side went into camp in Queensland on Friday.
It was suggested officials were considering standing Ferguson down from the All Stars clash to deal with his issues, but he will play in next week's showpiece.
Daley rates Ferguson a legitimate Origin prospect, having mentored him with Country last year when he won the players' player award for his two-try performance. He said the fact Ferguson didn't tell him he was leaving camp wouldn't harm his representative chances.
''Oh no, obviously family is more important than rugby league and if you've got an issue you need to attend to, you've got to go and do that,'' Daley said.
''They're the big decisions you have to make and if you believe it's in the best interests, you do that.
''That's what he's done and without knowing the issue or what it is, I'm not going to crucify him.
''I don't know the circumstances or how serious it was, he mightn't have had time to tell me.''
It continues a dramatic off-field period for Ferguson, who was issued a one-match suspension by the Raiders for turning up to training under the influence last year. In November, the club also fined the 22-year-old $5000 and ordered him to complete more community service work after he allegedly spat on patrons at the Foreshore music festival.
Daley told The Canberra Times late last month he wants to see Ferguson address his off-field issues before he can launch a serious Origin claim.
''There's no denying his talent and ability, obviously he needs to get himself right and not have those misdemeanours which have stopped his career inadvertently,'' Daley said. ''I'm sure somewhere down the track we'll have a yarn.''
Raiders coach David Furner said he has no qualms with Ferguson playing the All Stars game, instead of taking a few days off to deal with the family issue.
''It's more of a personal thing and he needs to get that sorted, he's now back at training and I don't think it's a problem [Ferguson playing All Stars],'' Furner said.
''He'll be playing in the game and has gone on the camp, that's all been dealt with.
''He did have a bit of an impingement with his shoulder, but Laurie wouldn't risk him [if he was unfit], he's been doing all our opposed [work] and all the training.''
Daley said he wouldn't sit down for a heart-to-heart with Ferguson this week and was confident his football would do the talking.

On Tuesday 27 December 2011, the Jerusalem municipality approved another 130 housing units for the illegal Israeli settlement of Gilo. According to Haaretz, the municipality responded to criticism of the move by saying, "there have been no changes to the municipality's policy for the past 40 years, and we will continue to build in all of Jerusalem's neighborhoods." Indeed, Jerusalem's planning policies have been discriminatory from the get-go and continue to favor Israeli growth at the expense of the city's Palestinian residents.

After the 1967 war, Israel annexed 71 square kilometers of the West Bank to the municipality of Jerusalem. Only six and a half square kilometers of this area had been under Jordanian rule. The remaining 64.5 square kilometers belonged to 28 Palestinian towns and villages and some were part of the municipal areas of Bethlehem and Beit Jala.
The new boundaries of Jerusalem followed political and military considerations. They were designed to include the areas of the hinterlands that were scarcely inhabited as well as the top of the mountains surrounding the city. The move reflected an effort to maximize the amount of land annexed while minimizing the Arab population in the city.

BACH AT LEIPZIG Opens Tonight at People's Light & Theatre
People's Light & Theatre presents the regional premiere of Itamar Moses' acclaimed comedy Bach at Leipzig running tonight, July 9-August 10, 2014 on the Steinbright Stage. Associate Artistic Director Pete Pryor directs. People's Light & Theatre is located at 39 Conestoga Road, Malvern, PA 19355.
Itamar Moses (Boardwalk Empire) sets his historical romp in 1722 Leipzig, Germany, where the world's greatest organist, Johann Kuhnau, has just died in the middle of a frenzied fugue. Seven men, all claiming to be Kuhnau's worthy successor, flock to the famous Thomaskirche (or St. Thomas Church), where Kuhnau presided over the music for Church services and the adjacent school. Blackmail and back-stabbing mix with debates on religion, philosophy, and politics as the men attempt to outdo each other in order to win Kuhnau's prestigious position.
"Whether you are a Bach buff or prefer Lady Gaga, I think you will laugh in unison at this ingenious and hilarious tale of history's underdogs" asserts People's Light's Producing Director, Zak Berkman. Director Pete Pryor adds, "One of the most delightful aspects of the work is how Itamar has purposefully set the piece up as a fugue. Each character needs the other to complete the piece. Themes are represented and then repeated with variations. Each of the characters is barreling desperately to his own inevitable outcome."
All of Moses' characters were contemporaries of J.S. Bach and each of them did, in fact, audition to be Kuhnau's replacement. Beyond that, the play is fictional. To play Moses' comic take on these historic figures, long-time People's Light company member Kevin Bergen portrays Georg Balthasar Schott, David Ingram plays Johann Christoph Graupner, and Stephen Novelli takes on Georg Friedrich Kaufmann. They are joined by Greg Wood as Johann Friedrich Fasch. Making their People's Light debuts are Danny Gardner as Johann Martin Steindorff and Jabari Brisport as Georg Lenck.
People's Light continues its program called Scoop on Sundays: History, Context, and Gossip, a lively discussion before every Sunday 7 pm performance (July 13, 20, 27, & August 3, 10). Resident Dramaturg Gina Pisasale will host an artist from the production and get the inside scoop about such things as the rehearsal and production process, design choices, and the world of the play. The program begins at 5:30 in The Farmhouse Bistro. Cost of $15 includes light fare. Call the Box Office at 610.644.3500.
Enjoy a prix fixe dinner and a show package for $70 (Wed, Thurs, Sat matinee, Sun eve) and $80 (Fri, Sat eve, Sun matinee) at The Farmhouse Bistro prior to Wed-Sun evening performances. That's a savings of up to 15% off the single ticket price! If you already have tickets, you can add dinner for just $35. Dinner and a show packages are available through the box office or online at PeoplesLight.org.
Bach at Leipzig previews on Wednesday, July 9 and Thursday, July 10 at 7:30 pm and Friday, July 11 at 8 pm. The play opens on Saturday, July 12 and runs through Sunday, August 10.

The beauty look may have been inspired by the dark ages but one thing was apparent backstage at Rodarte, both hair and makeup were focused on shine and reflection.
"It's modern medieval," said James Kaliardos for Nars, who infused moisture and luminosity with NarsSkin Optimal Brightening Concentrate. He also used Nars toner and moisturizer on each of the girls, to keep skin looking healthy. To impart a wet-finish for eyes and lips, Kaliardos used Triple X Lip Gloss on both. He spread the gloss all the way into the eye brow for a "shiny, modern" look. On the face, Kaliardos spotted on Radiant Creamy Concealer — new for Spring 2013 — focusing on the center of the face, so that there would be virtually "no foundation" on the sides. Sex Appeal blush was applied to the center of the cheek, while the inner corner of the eye was given a dab of Nars Himalayas eye shadow for a "reflective spin." Eye lashes were curled but left without mascara. "It's about reflection and skin tone," he said about the overall look.
Hair was equally simple, but directional.
"It's very straight, very flat and sleek and tight to the head," said Odile Gilbert for Kérastase, who began by prepping damp hair with Sublimateur Jour, a leave-in conditioner. She then blow dried it with a round brush, adding in Fibre Architecte, a heat-activated protective product, which also is designed to seal split ends. After using a flat iron, Gilbert created a "horizontal part" across the back of the head and something of a comb over, so models would have a shorter piece hanging in their faces like a panel. "The effect is that she shaved the side of her head," said Gilbert. The deep part also allowed for Rodarte's pewter-hued dragon ear cuffs, which Gilbert attached herself, to remain exposed. "It's about modernity," said Gilbert, who used Double Force hairspray to keep the style in place. "There's no trick. It's very clean and graphic."
The nude-hued nails, which featured an intricate crossover pattern in matte and shiny finishes, echoed beauty's Gothic inspiration. CND nail artists layered High Shine Pearl with Desert Suede, then added a drop of Chocolate Milk, on a wax paper, which they left to dry overnight. The next day they cut strips from the lacquered sheet and affixed them across the artificial nails, which were "moderate-length, rounded squares. It's a little bit of a reference to bondage and torture but in the sweetest possible way," quipped CND cofounder and lead stylist, Jan Arnold, who said it took more than 200 hours to create the collection of nail tips used in the show.

Damn I wish I had a 10000 TB HDD, or something like that... :) Thanks!
many thanx, brilliant torrent, will seeeed!! Crank that speed up and let it coming!
It's SAD that many of the old time videos on Vol. 4-5 have a voice over by some jerk which ruins the whole thing.
Here for more cartoons
So big size ; /
@ ramBEBE---->Duh its a fucking big size. Its several DVD's from almost 7 or 8 decades of animation history. Fucking dumbass. If you dont like big file sizes then get a faster fucking connection dipshit.
get some fkn terrabyes then, I have 21TB myself. Great Up.. I was wanting an all encompassing, definitive collection of all that ever was Looney... so, hope this is it.. a voice over? What, why? can't the originals be in there without someone talking about the show in which you are trying to watch? And how about all the old ones with racist undertones and making fun of the Nazi regime? There must be a better collection of EVERYTHING Looney, not just the politically correct stuff they want to be remembered for.
The comments reflect a scary amount of mental illness amongst you geeks. @ghandi253 seriously dude? do you know who ghandi was ignoramus? how about Hitler253 or jeffdahmer253? get a life you festering pustule. @dielaughing I think most of us wish you would. Do you need all that storage to make the 3 inch pencil in your pants seem bigger? Thanks for this DL I love LooneyTunes.

Maturity is the individual experience for each card. It is separate from player experience (the experience you see while battling in the quest mode). Maturity for a card is increased by enhancing it. When the Maturity reaches 100%, the card levels up and its stats are increased. When the card reaches its maximum level, the Maturity will read MAX and will no longer be increased (unless the rarity of the card is increased via evolving).
The best way to increase Maturity effectively is to farm for cards in chapters 2 or 3, evolve them, and use them to enhance the cards you want. This is an effective tactic because of the lower stamina use for battling in those chapters, you can acquire many cards to use for enhancing and effectively level up your cards. Cards with higher maturity levels are much stronger and more likely to land a successful trade should you decide to trade them. They also are very effective for evolving/enhancing other cards due to the increase stats.
