SUNBURY, Pa. - The sister of Miranda Barbour, a Pennsylvania woman charged along with her newlywed husband in the murder of a man they allegedly lured through Craigslist, says her sister is making up the claim that she killed more than 20 people.
The Daily Item of Sunbury reported Tuesday that Miranda Barbour's sister, Ashley Dean, called Barbour a "master at lying" who is drawing on the escapades of television serial killer "Dexter."
Barbour, 19, made the claim that she killed more than 20 to a Daily Item reporter after being charged in the stabbing death of a man she allegedly lured through a Craigslist ad offering companionship for money. She has pleaded not guilty.
Investigators say they've found no evidence to substantiate her claims of other killings.
Dean, 22, says her sister and her husband, Elytte Barbour, also 22, loved to watch "Dexter," a show about a forensic analyst turned serial killer who targets "bad people."
Miranda Barbour once told the paper that she killed people "who did bad things and didn't deserve to be here anymore."
"If you listen to what she is saying, she is using descriptions from the show. Miranda is just saying these things," Dean told the paper.
Miranda Barbour's father, Sonny Dean, previously told the Daily Item his daughter Miranda was a heroin addict and is a liar and manipulator, but he doesn't think she is a mass murderer.
The 19-year-old Barbour is in Northumberland County court Tuesday for a pretrial hearing in the alleged murder of 42-year-old Troy LaFerrara, allegedly lured via Craigslist.

Wheeling, Dealing Energy Stocks to Buy #4 — Whiting Petroleum (WLL)
Everyone knows that the prolific Bakken shale continues to be the hotbed of production activity. Well, it's also becoming a hotbed of M&A activity as well. Just look at Whiting Petroleum's (WLL) bid for smaller producer Kodiak Oil & Gas (KOG).
While KOG stock maybe the best energy stock to play the buyout — because more offers could still pour in, possibly bumping the price — there can be something said for buying the larger acquirer WLL.
With the purchase, Whiting will now be the largest firm operating in the Bakken, and it will control a whopping 855,000 net acres. That prime acreage currently produces around 107,000 BoE per day. However, by combing operations and using KOG's better drilling technology, the new WLL will be able to boost that production to around 152,000 BoE per day in 2015. Again, that production is liquids-rich, high-priced oil production.
Overall, the deal will be almost instantly accreditive to WLL's earnings and cash flows. Whiting will also have better access to cheaper capital due to its much larger size.
For investors, WLL is quickly becoming the Bakken energy stock du jour, and the recent deal only makes it stronger.
As of this writing, Aaron Levitt did not hold a position in any of the aforementioned securities.

Just last week one of our clients launched a mobile version of their existing website. Both, original and mobile websites are powered by Webiny CMS. Since one of requirements was to have mostly the same, but not identical content on both websites, the mobile website was introduced as a new (sub)domain into the system. This way managing the content is easier since each of the versions has its own content but they still share images, documents and other content available within the system.
Webiny as CMS for mobile websites
With the right theme, using any Webiny product, like eCommerce or Booking System, you can easily distribute your offer to mobile platforms, expanding your clients reach and giving a better user experience to ones that open your website on their smartphone.
Tips & resources
On Smashing Magazine there is one great article that covers the basics in designing a website for mobile phones:
Addition to that, here is one slideshow I've found that contains very useful tips and guidelines that you should keep in mind if you are designing a mobile website.

About the Book
"A Lucky Boy" is a humorous and thoughtful "Rags to Eventual Riches" story about Gil Jacobs, a third generation Lebanese boy born and raised in the "Bottoms" of Cincinnati. His high school and college years are rich with antidotes regarding his struggle with discipline and his transition to middle class America. His escapades extend over three score years from Ohio to Michigan to California, including spring breaks in Florida and a trip Havana, with a seven year time out for a regrettable marriage.
In 1974, after a financially and emotionally devastating divorce, he dedicated himself to raising his two sons while balancing the life of a single dad with a return to the single life in San Francisco. Dice became a fun focus of his life as he authored several books on dice games and produced game packages and held city wide Liars Dice tournaments. Football also came to the foreground as he became engrossed in following the 49ers from Kezar, to Candlestick and joined in their Super Bowl exploits. He has great stories of being at the very first super bowl and eight others that he attended. More recently, he became involved in publicizing and promoting the jazz and swing music of the forties and fifties by co-authoring the biography of "Harold Jones", Count Basie's favorite drummer currently performing with Tony Bennett's Quartet.
Starting with IBM, he found great success in the computer industry. But after some forty years, he changed careers to mortgage loan origination and also enjoyed great success with Citibank and Wells Fargo.
His second marriage is in its 21st year, and they are happily retired in the heart of San Francisco where they enhance living in their favorite city with world-wide travel, cruising and visiting with his two sons who are fire fighters in San Francisco.
At age seventy-seven, he is just hitting his writing stride after completing the very successful biography of "Harold Jones" and now his own memoirs.

The Ten Network has been accused of trying to buy an injunction after it emerged that the network offered to pay veteran programmer John Stephens two years' salary not to work at the Seven and Nine networks.
The sensational allegations were aired by Seven's barrister, Andrew Bell, SC, during closing submissions on Thursday.
''The courts do not uphold anti-competitive results without very good reason,'' Dr Bell said. ''It's an attempt to buy an injunction for an anti-competitive result.''
Mr Stephens signed with Ten in March but reneged on the deal days later, claiming he had been under the influence of medication after hip surgery. Ten has brought legal proceedings against Seven, saying it induced Mr Stephens to breach the contract with Ten.
The network wants Mr Stephens to be prevented from working with Seven for two years, the length of the intended contract with Ten.
During cross-examination, Ten executive chairman Hamish McLennan revealed he offered Mr Stephens, on Tuesday, two years' salary even if he didn't work for the network, provided he didn't work for Nine or Seven. ''I believe we had a contract and it was the right thing to do to honour the contract,'' he said.
Dr Bell said Ten was willing to pay Mr Stephens ''hundreds of thousands of dollars to do nothing''.
Ten is suffering from some of its worst ratings on record and posted an $8 million loss for the half-year ended February 28. A Ten spokesman declined to comment on the offer to Mr Stephens.
Mr McLennan said he decided to offer the salary to Mr Stephens without consultation with the board or major shareholders. It is believed Ten feels that if it can keep Mr Stephens away from Seven, he may honour the broken agreement and that the offer made on Tuesday was to show the contract would stand if injunctive relief was granted.
Ten's barrister, David Studdy, SC, said that Seven took a two-pronged approach to win Mr Stephens back: a ''cane'' to make him fear litigation, and a ''carrot or feather duster'' to induce him to return.
Dr Bell argued that given the enormity of the task that faced the 67-year old Mr Stephens, he had doubts about taking the job and changed his mind on his own accord.

I have an odd problem with what appears to be a straight forward layout.
The problem is only evident in IE7.
See the attached image. A normal left hand sidebar (float left) which contains the navigation, and the right hand content area.
For some reason the right hand content area start at the bottom of the navigation elements inside the sidebar.
The project is confidential so its difficult to post a demo url. Have made a graphic of the problem.
All help greatly appreciated.
Do you have clear:right (or some other form of clear) on any of those nav items?
You could post some css and html without compromising your site.
Hi, there are so many possibilities of what could be going on. All of which, however, as Ralph pointed out, would be entire guesses without full HTML and CSS :).
Although a link would be more preferable as it would allow easy testing.
Thanks Guys. I have permssion to post the site now...
You can see the problem here: http://22.214.171.124/go-moco.co.uk/index-apr10-18-DIV.htm
The css is here http://18.104.22.168/go-moco.co.uk/styles/common-new.css
In all browsers accept IE7 and below display the site fine.
The maincontent area is being shifted over to the right as if the padding has been applied twice.
I inherited this site from another designer, so it not my original code.
All help greatfully received.
I don't have IE available right now, but I'm assuming the problem is with the quadR div? I couldn't see any "maincontent".
I would recommend floating quadR and removing the left margin. That's always just asking for trouble in IE. I can't remember how people get that to work (perhaps by adding display: inline?) but I just don't use that for layout. I don't see the point, when you can just float both divs.
BTW, if anyone doesn't have IE7, you can see the same problem in IE8 in compatibility mode.
A bit more info may help...
div rightcolumnFront has a left padding to push it to the right of the left column.
inside this is div QUADcontainer.
inside this is quadL which is float left or quadR.
it appears it is the QUADcontainer that is being pushed over to the right by a similar margin to the rightcolumnFront div. But there is no padding set on this.
Subtle hint:
.rightcolumnFront {
min-height: 376px;
font-size: 1.2em;
line-height: 1.3em;
padding: 0px 0px 0px 240px;

THIEVES struck three times to steal 23,000 litres of diesel worth £25,000 from a Darwen transport depot.
Police said CCTV footage shows the assailants enter Nightfreight in Lower Eccleshill Road via the adjoining Canopies premises.
They first arrived on a Saturday night, at about 10.30pm, returning twice the following afternoon.
At about 1pm on Sunday, September 30, a white lorry, similar in looks to a chilled unit, was captured on CCTV in the compound for about 90 minutes before leaving.
The thieves were seen using black piping to pump diesel out of the fuel tank to the waiting vehicles and possibly into plastic containers.
The lorry then left the yard and a second lorry then entered the yard and the process was repeated.
Police said they believed the offenders were either ill-prepared for the theft on the Saturday or were making initial preparations to steal the fuel.
DC Dan Perkins from Blackburn CID said police were appealing for information over the theft.
He said: "I'd be very interested to hear from anybody who may be able to identify either lorry.
"I'd also like to hear from any operators who may have had similar vehicles stolen and recovered that smelled of diesel.
"Fuel was spilt over a large distance on the roads close to the theft site, indicating that the thieves weren't too careful while filling the containers in the lorries so the load areas may have had to have been cleaned substantially."
The first lorry was described as a white rigid side, rear door lorry. It had an aerofoil on the cab and was possibly an Iveco unit.
The second lorry was a white cabbed, blue curtain sided rigid lorry with rear curtain sides.
Anyone with information can call DC Perkins on 01254 353564 or Lancashire Police on 101.
People with information can also contact Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555111.

Valdes left the board in 2010 and now faces scrutiny for accepting gifts from another former board member, Alfred Villalobos—who, the state alleges, spent tens of thousands of dollars trying to influence how the fund invested its assets.

He hasn't taken a public position on the textbook bill.Books meeting the bill's requirements would be incorporated into California classes in 2012. Social science courses would include "age-appropriate study" of the "role and contributions" that lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender people have made to the "economic political and social development" of California and the U.S.Schools are already required to teach the historical and social roles of blacks, women, American Indians, Hispanics, Asians and other ethnic groups.

Tired of winter? Take heart, bike season is just around the corner.
Here are the highlights of models ready to go for 2013:
With an engine and frame derived from this company's Grand Prix experiences, the RSV4 is powered by a 999-cc V-4 that develops a whopping 184 horsepower. New brake system, revised suspension geometry, traction control system and launch control are all available, making the RSV4 one of the fastest bikes out there. Not for beginners, this one joins the Caponard tourer.
Replacing the F650, the F700GS is one of the more versatile models in the BMW Motorrad stable. It works as a commuter, long-distance tourer and even a sport bike, if you're not too demanding. Output from the 800-cc inline-two-cylinder engine is in the 75-hp neighbourhood, and it has a six-speed transmission and ABS as standard equipment.
This Italian company is reporting increased sales in North America, and the Multistrada 1200S Touring is one of its new models for 2013. A touring/sport bike, it has a 150-hp twin that allows you to set it to one of four modes to handle a variety of riding conditions, including long-distance touring.
It's relatively quiet in Milwaukee these days. There's a restyled FXDB Street Bob and a killer custom treatment of the Softail from the company's CVO division. Called the Breakout, this latter model is slammed (lowered) and chopped and features special paint and "Turbine" chrome wheels. Power is supplied by a Screaming Eagle V-Twin engine displacing 1.8 litres, mated to a six-speed transmission.
Here's one of those "it's about time" things: a Goldwing stripped down for touring and cruising. Called the F6B, this is Honda's legendary long-distance tourer minus a rear top box, with a cut-down windscreen, and less chrome. Result: a tough-looking boulevardier that is still arguably the best long-distance bike on the market. Also new from the world's largest motorcycle manufacturer: the CBR500 mid-size sport bike that comes in a variety of models, and a Giorno 50-cc city scooter.
Very much alive and kicking and now owned by Polaris Industries, Indian has four bikes for 2013, including the Dark Horse, which is powered by an air-cooled 105-cubic-inch V-twin, and has a six-speed transmission, belt final drive and the fully black matte treatment. Indian is describing this particular bike as "bold and beastly."
Equally beastly but in a different way is the new KTM 1190 RC8R. Normally associated with long-distance enduro events such as the Dakar Rally, KTM has branched out and this formidable sport bike develops 175 horsepower and joins the 990 Supermoto T, which is a completely different machine, leaning toward the supermotard side of things. High saddle height, long-distance fuel tank and room for a couple of rear saddlebags come standard.
The new Z1000 Special Edition is a "super naked" bike with a 1,043-cc inline-four-cylinder that has more power than the previous version. Kawasaki is coy about horsepower numbers with its sport bikes, but you just know this one is fast. Also getting a facelift is the Vaquero cruiser. With a 1,700-cc V-twin engine that develops 82 horsepower and 108 lb-ft of torque, this one is an all-day sucker, with gobs of reserve power and attitude to match.
Moto Guzzi
My favourite Italian bike-maker has a couple of new models for 2013. They include a new updated California cruiser/custom that now has a 1,400-cc opposed V-Twin engine that is the largest of its kind anywhere. It's good for 96 horsepower and can be found in either the touring or custom versions of the California. It joins a new V7 Stone middleweight powered by a 744-cc V-twin with 50 horsepower on tap.
Look for a new version of the BV touring scooter, now propelled by a 350-cc single that has a purported top speed more than 135 km/h and, more to the point, will deliver at least 3.6 litres/100 km.
The company may be in trouble in the United States, but Suzuki Canada is definitely above-ground and, among other things, will bring forth the GSX650 middleweight sport bike, a GSX1250 superbike, a special-edition C50 cruiser, yet another bike with the full black-out treatment: the C90T Boss, an overhauled V-Strom 1000, and a revamped Gladius 650 standard. These latter two bikes may be among the most ride-able on the market.
With 126 hp at your fingertips now, the Daytona gets more power, loses a little weight, receives a new exhaust system, gets an ABS system that can be disabled for track duty, and has new frame components. Still goes like hell, too.
The all-day FJ1300A sport tourer now has a traction control system, cruise control as standard equipment, and Yamaha's slick D-mode. In a nutshell, this allows you to choose your performance level that, according to Yamaha, "can be sportier or more relaxed depending on riding situations." There is also a new V-Star 1300 cruiser/tourer, and a cute little Vino 50 scooter that should take you at least 200 kilometres per tank of gas.Report Typo/Error

Lessons introduce the participant to the kayak and related safety equipment, clothing appropriate for different conditions as well as Department of Transport regulations as they relate to kayaking. Basic paddle strokes are taught, along with low bracing and assisted recoveries (rescues).
Level 1 Sea Kayaking Course (12 hours) -
Lessons build on the Introduction to Kayaking course, working to perfect the basic paddle strokes in calm water with more attention focused on proper body positioning; edging, leaning and torso rotation. A variety of bracing and recovery methods are taught including assisted and solo recoveries (rescues). Theory instruction covers the use of tide/current tables, weather forecasts, and basic chart reading to plan a safe day long paddle in sheltered waters.
Level 2 Sea Kayaking Course (4-5 days)
This touring course takes the the skills perfected in the Level 1 Sea Kayaking course, adds a few new strokes and moves them into more "dynamic" waters (wind: less than 20 knots; waves: less than 1 m; current: less than 3 knots). The lessons involve 2 days in White Rock covering new skills and theory and a 2 night tour in the Gulf Islands where participants will share in the trip planning, navigation, camping and decision making responsibilities.
Level 3 Sea Kayaking Course (5 days)
This multi-day touring course will build on the skills from the Level 2 kayaking course to a higher proficiency with a strong focus on practical leadership, risk assessment, decision-making, judgment, group management, and seamanship.

(JTA) — A major rent increase forced the Jewish charitable organizations in a Russian city out of their offices.
The groups in Obninsk left the premises last month after the Russian government agency that owns the properties tripled the rent, according to the Federation of Jewish Communities of the CIS.
The rent for similar nongovernmental organizations in Obninsk, a city of about 105,000 located approximately 100 miles southwest of Moscow, reportedly did not rise.
The Jewish community has appealed to city officials to help provide facilities or land for the construction of a Jewish community center.

The ageless diva and the young R'n'B crooner delivered their hit duet '#Beautiful' on the Thursday night celebration.
After performing their collaboration track "#Beautiful" at the Hot 97 Summer Jam XX in New Jersey last month and its new remix version at the recent 2013 BET Awards with Young Jeezy, Mariah Carey and Miguel took their hit duet to the Macy's Fourth of July Fireworks Spectacular in New York City. The pair pre-recorded their performance a week before the annual fireworks show at the Liberty State Park.
Performing with a full band complete with three back-up singers, Carey looked every inch a diva as she sang her part while lounging on bales of hay, looking less made up and more natural to match the pretty red and blue countryside gal ensemble she had on. For his part, Miguel kept his usual hip and cool outfit of ripped jeans and casual top.
Fittingly making the introduction to the performance was Carey's hubby Nick Cannon, who got the gig to host the two-hour special. Apart from singing her latest hit song, Carey also gave a rousing rendition of "America the Beautiful" in a smashing red gown, and one of her classics, "Hero", in a sparkling, body-hugging black dress.
Carey's triple serving of high notes in the fireworks show comes in the heels of new scrutiny over her supposed lip-synced performance at the BET Awards. Some are insinuating that her Macy's Fireworks Spectacular performances were also done not without some lip-syncing too, but whether they're live or not, undeniably it's still the diva's unique voice everyone is hearing.

The US Patent and Trademark Office has awarded two patents to Steve Jobs, the Apple co-founder who died five months ago.
The patents were posthumously awarded to Jobs, as well as other employees of Apple, for their design of the current iMac and for the third-generation iPod Shuffle – which was famous for its tiny size and lack of buttons.
In total, the agency awarded 19 patents to the company, which is notorious for stockpiling patents.
In the past, Apple has filed patents for items ranging from products that have never made it to the public to staircases used at Apple stores around the world.
Jobs died in October, a day after the company announced its latest iPhone, after multiple battles with pancreatic cancer. In his lifetime, Jobs was named in more than 300 patents.
This is not the first time Jobs has received an award posthumously. He received a Grammy in February for his contribution to the music industry, and last weekend he was given the Cupertino, California, Chamber of Commerce's 2012 President's Award.

Politics Weekly podcast: Childcare, ethnic minority votes and backbench rumblings
Childcare in Britain is among the most expensive in Europe, a fact that many in the Treasury believe is contributing to the sluggish nature of economic growth. The answer supplied this week by children's minister Lizz Truss is to relax regulations and raise the permitted ratio of children to childminders. It was a suggestion that came in for hostile treatment from the left and the right.
In the studio this week: Tory candidate and former No 10 advisor Shaun Bailey, The Observer's economics editor Heather Stewart, and Guardian columnist Martin Kettle.
Also this week: the panel examines the proposals from Tory backbencher Alok Sharma to get FTSE-listed companies to release data about the ethnic composition of their workforces.
Plus: as the little-known Tory MP Adam Afriye is linked with an audacious leadership bid, are backbench rumblings starting to get louder despite David Cameron's popular speech on Europe last week?

India's one billion Hindus still generally observe a caste system that prohibits members born into one caste from marrying into another. The system is thought to have prevailed for more than 2,000 years, long enough to have impressed a subtle genetic signature on the population, according to a team of American and Indian biologists.
Although marriage within one's own caste is strongly preferred, women are occasionally allowed to marry men of higher caste, with their children assuming their father's status. This practice gives rise to a rigidly stratified population in which women have slight upward mobility but men none.
Population geneticists can track the lineages of men and women separately by looking at regions of DNA that are inherited exclusively through the male line (the Y chromosome) or the female line (the mitochondria, cellular organelles bequeathed by the egg and not the sperm).
Sampling DNA from people of various castes in Andhra Pradesh, a province in southern India, the biologists reported in last week's issue of Nature that there was indeed a significant genetic distance, as measured by the number of differences in the DNA, between women in the higher and lower castes. The differences can be explained by a low level of gene flow carried by women moving one way in a firmly layered system. If women moved both ways, or not at all, there would be little difference between the castes.
The differences in DNA from the Y chromosome, on the other hand, were minor and probably arose from random mutation, the researchers say.
The DNA differences in question make no difference to the people involved because they are not part of the genes. Population geneticists prefer to study non-gene DNA because it changes quite often, whereas most mutations in the genes are harmful and quickly eliminated.
Dr. Michael J. Bamshad of the University of Utah, a co-author of the study, said that he and his colleagues at Andhra University in India hoped to extend their methods to explore the population history of India and the role of different groups in the caste system. ''There has been a greater Asian influence in the lower and middle castes, and a greater Caucasian contribution to the upper castes,'' he said, a finding that probably reflects the Indo-European invasion of India.Continue reading the main story
The genetic traces of women trickling up through the caste system, Dr. Bamshad said, ''demonstrates that social processes such as mating patterns can leave an indelible imprint on the human genome. It also shows how powerful genetic analysis is for revealing human history.''Continue reading the main story

Private equity-owned Exego Group, which owns automotive brand
It is the second private- equity deal in automotive parts in a fortnight.
Melbourne-based Exego Group will issue new shares to Genuine Parts Company, subject to regulatory approvals. The deal allows Genuine Parts to buy the remaining shares in Exego later if the business meets certain earnings thresholds.
Unitas Capital, the private-equity owner of Exego, will retain 70 per cent of the group.
Exego managing director
"We've got a strong balance sheet anyway but this will really support our further growth strategy," he said.
"We're continuing to grow our business in the Australian and New Zealand market. A little further out, over a two to three-year time horizon, we'll be looking at growing our business in South-East Asia."
He said the 20-year relationship between Genuine Parts and Exego meant the groups were closely aligned. "Combined we'll be the global leader," he said. "For us to jointly expand our business in Asia is a logical approach.
"Genuine Parts Company is a natural long-term owner with a commitment to growth in this industry and we intend to use the injected funds to pursue this objective."
Genuine Parts chairman Thomas Gallagher said the investment would allow the group to participate in long-term growth opportunities in the Australasian aftermarket and provide the platform to participate in the business' growth in Asia.
Exego is one of Australia's largest aftermarket distributors of automotive replacement parts and accessories in Australasia, with annual revenues of about $US1 billion. The group owns automotive businesses including McLeod Accessories, Ashdown-Ingram and Motospecs.
Repco was publicly listed in Australia until it was bought by CCMP Capital Asia, now known as Unitas Capital, in 2007. Repco Group was rebranded as Exego Group in 2009.
The deal follows Quadrant Private Equity purchasing Burson Auto Parts for close to $150 million.
Quadrant's investment means it owns nearly 90 per cent of Burson.
It marked the first purchase for Quadrant since it bought Media Monitors in July 2010.

Have Relationship Questions? Ask a Counselor for Answers ASAP
Thanks for your response. I feel like I've tried to be more communicative. Its difficult because she is a clinical psychologist and I I don't feel like I'm on the same level of sophistication in the things I bring up to her. I'm having trouble coming at her with new ideas. She is always saying think outside of the box. You're right she has said that she wants to see more action. We've had alot of relationship trouble of late and I just am scrambling thinking of ways to reach her before its too late. I am tired of letting her down.
I think that's part of the problem. I've told her that I love her very much. I've told her that she is everything to me. That's the stuff that she finds repetitive. She wants me to say something different but in reality she needs to see action. Its like she wants immediate results but these days is so quick to judge. I am far from blameless. We have had ongoing relationship problems and its still really early in our marriage. I love her and am trying to make her feel special but I feel like I am coming up short in words and my grand gestures to make her feel special (taking her on special trips, cards, letters, etc.) just don't seem to work. I've mentioned counseling to her before and she has said that the counselor will tell us that we shouldn't be together. I'm sorry if this is so scatterbrained. There is just alot going on right now and it feels very critical - like I only have a day or a couple days to make a difference. I feel desperate. I really appreciate your input.
You've been extremely helpful. I know its a rather open ended question but the question will come up when I talk to her today about what ideas and what plan I have for us. She feels like our relationship has been one sided. Like she does all the work and is tired of waiting for me to change. I think the hardest part for me is that when we speak in person. I'm reduced to a stuttering stammering mess. She feels like she's heard everything that I have to say and to a certain extent she's right. I don't know what to tell her that my actions wouldn't show better but yet she's always asking me if I have anything to say for myself. I love her and I hate seeing her so unhappy. I've never cursed at her or said a mean thing to her but she has said that she thinks that I am abusive (I'm guessing emotionally). I just want to have something new to say or do for her and I am out of ideas right now. Is there anything you could suggest?

NEW YORK (Aug. 2)
George Rublee, Washington lawyer and a close friend of President Roosevelt, will be elected director of the permanent refugee bureau when the Intergovernmental Committee on Assistance to Refugees meets in London tomorrow, a reliable source here said today. He is to sail soon for London to undertake his job, the most important and difficult aspect of which is to negotiate with Germany for facilitation of emigration.
Mr. Rublee is a partner in the Washington law firm of Covington, Burling, Rublee, Acheson and Shorb. He was a friend of President Woodrow Wilson and served on the Federal Trade Commission, the Eight-Hour Commission and other government bodies during the Wilson administration.
James G. McDonald, chairman of President Roosevelt's Advisory Committee on Political Refugees, returned on the Normandie yesterday from Evian, where he acted as an adviser to Myron C. Taylor, American delegate to the conference.

The countrified version comes out offering a new twist to the single that originally contains pop/rock beat.
Kelly Clarkson has crafted a new version of her first single "Mr. Know It All". The winner of "American Idol" inaugural season keeps the original lyrics intact. Instead of changing the lyrics, she gives a new twist to the revamped version by trading the pop/rock beat with some twangy sounds.
"Mr. Know It All" is taken from Kelly's fifth studio installment "Stronger", which was released last October. It reached No. 1 on Billboard Adult Pop Songs, and peaked at No. 5 and 10 on Adult Contemporary and Hot 100 respectively.
Kelly is currently touring across North America to support her latest album. She has kicked off the roadshow on January 13 at MGM Grand Theater in Foxwoods, Mashantucket. She will stay on the road until April and wrap it up on date 10 at Valley View Casino Center in San Diego.

MOSCOW (Apr. 3)
Preparations for the return of Jews to their homes in the cities of Dubno and Kremenetz, which were recently liberated by the Russian armies in their drive toward the Carpathian mountains, are now being completed by the Soviet authorities in the Tambov region of central Russia where the Jews were given refuge when their cities were invaded, it was announced today by the Jewish Anti-Fascist Committee here. While in Tambov, the refugees became skilled agricultural workers.
At the same time it was reported by the Committee that not a single Jew was left alive by the Germans in Kremenetz and Dubno. These cities had large Jewish populations before the outbreak of the war.
"Many of the Jews in these two neighboring cities succeeded in fleeing to the mountains near Kremenetz where they organized themselves into guerilla units under the leadership of a Kremenetz Jew named Bernstein," the report of the Jewish Anti-Fascist Committee said. "For almost a year they harassed the German armies and were of great help to the vanguard of the Russian Army. The German authorities offered a reward for any information leading to Bernstein's capture, but all their efforts to discover his whereabouts failed."
The committee also reported today that when the Russian Army liberated the town of Mozyr in Byelorussia, they found only three Jews. These were tailors whom the German authorities left alive in order that they might sew for the army. All the remaining Jews in Mozyr were annihilated by the Germans during their occupation. The Nazis retreated from the town in such disorder that they evidently forgot these last three Jews whom they had constantly been threatening with eventual execution.
Another report made public by the Committee reveals that women in the Red Army are performing the dangerous assignments of sappers, detecting thousands of mines concealed as "booby traps" in cities abandon by the Germans. One of these women, a Jewish girl named Raya Kozhevnikovn, 20, has left a trail of her activities in the word "demined" written on house walls in towns and villages throughout White Russia, the Committee says. She learned the hazardous art of detecting mines in Stalingrad, where she made 1,900 mines harmless.

Hey there, time traveller!
This article was published 22/1/2013 (1672 days ago), so information in it may no longer be current.
Nearly a dozen online searches for Phoenix Sinclair were done by child welfare employees on Aug. 24 2005, electronic records presented at the inquiry into her July 2005 death heard today.
On Monday, a worried relative testified to spending a day on the phone with child welfare agencies trying to find out about Phoenix Sinclair's whereabouts after not seeing her for months. The witness, who cannot be identified, said the five-year-old girl hadn't been seen after moving to the Fisher River First Nation with her mother, Samantha Kematch, stepfather Karl McKay and their newborn baby.
Kematch and McKay abused and tortured Phoenix, who died in July 2005. Her death wasn't discovered until March 2006 when her remains were found in a shallow grave at the Fisher River dump. The couple was convicted of first-degree murder in 2008. The province ordered an inquiry into Phoenix's death in 2011 to find out how she slipped through Manitoba's child-welfare safety net.
In 2005 when Kematch was pregnant with her fifth child, she made several trips to Winnipeg with the newborn for prenatal care but never brought Phoenix. The witness Monday told the inquiry Kematch was verbally abusive to Phoenix and McKay was physically abusive to Kematch.
Concerned about Phoenix's wellbeing and whereabouts, on Aug. 24, 2005 calls were made to child welfare agencies around the province, the witness said. Workers at Winnipeg Child and Family Services and Metis Child and Family Services who searched the CFS online information system for Phoenix on that day more than seven years ago told the inquiry they don't recall conducting the searches or why they did them.
Their testimony continues today.

With the Australian summer around the corner and the Pacific Ocean starting to come to life, it's time to start preparing for your summer surf fix.
Sure, the Australian summer is an exciting time of year. Hot days at the beach, the start of the Australian cricket season, bikinis and board shorts and let's not forget those extra long days that give you just enough time for a knock-off surf after work.
With so much to look forward to, it can be a bit of a bummer when you see the long range outlook for surf conditions, especially on the east coast of Australia. Below average waves and long waits between swells can sometimes be too much to bear for surfers. Booking a surf trip for this summer not only gives you something to look forward to but also makes dealing with gutless onshore wind swells, bluebottles and crowds a whole lot easier!
The Pacific Ocean lights up with North Swells from November – April, producing epic surf conditions throughout. World Surfaris have a diverse range of surf trips available this summer with availabilities in PNG, Samoa, Fiji, Micronesia, Sri Lanka, Tonga, Taiwan and parts of Indonesia.
To find a trip that's right for you this summer, talk to a World Surfaris expert by phoning

For photographer Aaron Sheldon's four-year-old son, visiting the doctor's office was akin to entering an unfamiliar and foreboding abyss. However, his fear was conquered when he "decided to act brave like an astronaut", and donned a spacesuit for the occasion.
The initial photograph of the experience has since grown into an awesome series entitled "Small Steps Are Giant Leaps", which features the little astronaut wearing his spacesuit to a variety of locations. Sheldon notes:
My goal is that the images from my "Small Steps Are Giant Leaps" project will remind other moms or dads out there who may be losing their patience in line at the grocery store or coffee shop that our kids aren't just acting like fools – they are exploring new frontiers. Our job as parents is to act as their mission control and co-pilot to make sure they can explore as much of their new world as possible.
Check out additional images below.
A book and prints from the project are available here.

James Elliott declares for Cranbrook Council
A longtime City of Cranbrook worker has announced his intention of seeking a seat on Cranbrook City Council, in the upcoming municipal election this November.
James Elliott worked with the City of Cranbrook for more than 30 years, serving in every department, he said. He currently sits on the City's Environmental and Utilities Committee. He's now looking to take that next step, upwards into governance, and is the first to publicly throw his hat into the ring for Council this year.
"Since I moved back from the regional district to Cranbrook, it's come to my attention that there are real major issues," Elliott said. "The direction Council is taking currently is almost backwards.
"Being involved with the City for so many years, I'm aware of the grassroots system we should be following."
Elliott feels the City of Cranbrook should be more focused on smaller details, on day-to-day details that help the quality of life for Cranbrook's residents.
Infrastructure, for example. "Has the City looked at resurfacing some of the streets that do not need the infrastructure repaired?" he asked. "Wouldn't it be practical to have a resurfacing program, do as many blocks as you can without having to dig up infrastructure?
"11th Avenue, for example, has not had to be dug up for a fix for as long as I can remember.
"We all know it has to be done. But the City is looking longterm at some of that areas that don't have any prior history."
Elliott feels the cost of maintaining the amount of Cranbrook's greenspace should be examined. "We've got all this greenspace that nobody's using — Pop Price Park, Pinecrest Park, the Victoria soccer pitches — but we maintain it. And the City's thinking of creating more greenspace."
Elliott also has concerns with staffing levels at City Hall, and the procurement of City equipment. "There are too many pickup trucks and not enough snowplows," he said.
This last is a key point with Elliott. "They're plowing the arterial streets, but not the side streets or the sidewalks.
"I do a lot of work for seniors, shovelling snow and such. Last winter, I watched an elderly woman get off the sidewalk to walk on the street, because she couldn't walk on the sidewalk — too much ice. And she fell. That's when I made my decision (to run for Council). The City has to do the little things, for the quality of life of the people, especially seniors. I hear it every day."
Elliott is asked what he would bring to the table, if elected to City Council.
"Accountability, period," he said. "I say straight up, you can't go make a $20 order with $10 in your pocket. That's what this Council does over and over. They follow wish lists, not budgets."
The municipal elections in Cranbrook and British Columbia take place Saturday, November 15, 2014. The Townsman will feature each candidate in this space as that candidate announces he or she is running.

Saas Fee snow report 28.12.2012
Here is the latest snow report from our team in Saas Fee
There is 270cm of snow at the top of the Saas Fee ski area with 96 cm down in resort. The last 'top up' of snow came yesterday when 20cm fell.
Due to windy conditions there are only 17% of runs open and 5 of the 21 lifts running.
Sunshine is heading its way to Saas Fee over the next 3 days, giving us chance to sit back and relax in the deck chairs and take in the views from the mountain restaurants.
Lower down in resort, many keen skiers are out making use of the fresh powder that deposited last night. Attacking the kickers in the beginner park and stylishly skiing down from the Kalbermatten lift. Unfortunately there's some wild wind storms further up the mountain causing for lifts and pistes to remain closed for the time being.
Guests enjoyed the torch light decent and free mulled wine on boxing day hosted by the one and only Swiss Ski School.

Uncle Ron, Auntie Susan and Grandpa came to visit us in November.
We really enjoying living on the border of town and being able to hike out occasionally into the wetlands.
Last week at the ECA Christmas program.
Our landlady and neighbor, Toyita, is Cedric's "adopted" Colombian abuelita. She came to watch him sing!
Cedric's class at ECA had a ministry morning where they went to a nearby retirement home to sing and color for the elderly folk. I was able to be one of the chaperones and enjoyed spending the morning with his classmates.
There's a new photographer in the family. The following photos are all snapshots from Cedric's perspective!
(I think we look like farmers!)
(What the perfect Christmas cookie looks like!)
(He's lying on the front porch facing the gate.)
We're getting into the Christmas spirit over here... missing family terribly but enjoying being home for the holidays!

* To sell 20 pct stake in offshore field for $4.21 bln
* Eni keeps 50 pct stake, could sell down further
* Deal includes potential Eni access to shale gas in China
* Eni raises output growth target to over 4 pct/yr
* Neighbouring field generates bid interest from India (Adds Eni management comments, news of Indian bid)
By Stephen Jewkes and Giancarlo Navach
MILAN/LONDON, March 14 (Reuters) - Italian oil firm Eni connected east Africa's gas riches to energy-hungry China on Thursday with the sale of a 20 percent stake in its Mozambique offshore project to Chinese oil company CNPC.
The $4.21 billion deal, still subject to approval by Mozambique authorities, provides Eni with extra funding and reduces its share of an estimated $50 billion development bill.
The Italian firm still has 50 percent of its biggest ever gas discovery - one that larger international oil and gas companies eye with envy, and Chief Executive Paolo Scaroni said the company may yet sell more.
"It's great early monetisation on what is a world-class project and helps reduce Eni's risk exposure to the area," said Jason Kenney, an oil analyst at Santander.
The deal joins one of the planet's biggest untapped gas resources with its fastest growing gas consuming country and could accelerate the onset of competition for Asian markets between east African and Australian supplies of liquefied natural gas (LNG), which is super-cooled and squeezed into special ships for export.
It came as Eni outlined its strategy for the years ahead, raising its output growth target to more than 4 percent a year to 2016 from over 3 percent in the previous plan.
It also promised higher future returns for shareholders, with some of the payouts coming from an asset disposal programme. Eni shares outperformed their peers on Thursday, climbing 2.9 percent to 18.45 euros.
The other shareholders in Eni's Area 4 prospect are state firm Empresa Nacional de Hidrocarbonetos de Mocambique, Korea's Kogas and Portugal's Galp Energia, each with a 10 percent stake.
Despite the obvious benefits to Eni from the deal, analysts said the price paid by CNPC at $2.10 to $2.25 per barrel of oil equivalent (boe) of reserves was lower than some expectations, reflecting concerns about the direction of gas prices globally.
It appears to vindicate industry heavyweight Royal Dutch Shell's decision last year to back out of a higher-priced auction at $3 per boe for a stake in a neighbouring gas block known as Area 1, operated by U.S.-based Anadarko.
In total, the Rovuma field holds around 150 trillion cubic feet (tcf) of gas, enough to supply Germany, Britain, France and Italy for 15 years. Area 4 is thought to contain around 75 tcf. Area 1 is believed to be bigger at about 90 tcf.
CNPC, parent of Hong Kong and New York-listed PetroChina , has been in talks to buy the Area 4 stake for some time.
Sources have said other oil majors such as ExxonMobil , Chevron, Shell and Total were interested in Eni's block. But a deal with these larger companies might have threatened Eni's ownership of a project that is crucial to its future, while a link with CNPC also creates the crucial customer connection that LNG projects traditionally need.
"It gives value to the project to have customers as shareholders such as Kogas and now CNPC," Eni Chief Executive Paolo Scaroni said in a conference call. "Who knows, even contracts with them moving on, since it gives robustness to the project."
Eni and Anadarko have said they plan to unite exploitation of the two fields to boost their value. In the meantime, attention moves to the bidding for the stake in Area 1.
Anadarko and Indian tycoon Venugopal Dhoot are selling a 20 percent stake in Area 1. In last year's auction, Thai state oil company PTT had won the contest for 8.5 percent of the field after Shell backed away.
In a coincidental development on Thursday, the first bidder for the next 20 percent stake emerged. A source directly involved in the matter told Reuters the bid came from India's two state-controlled oil companies ONGC and Oil India Ltd..
India, like China, has a pace of growth that is threatening to outstrip its ability to provide energy to drive it.
CNPC, China's biggest energy company, already has gas and LNG joint ventures with Shell in Australia, China and Canada.
China is the world's second-largest oil consumer, and its growing demand for gas is the driver for most new LNG projects around the world, especially since the shale gas revolution in the United States wiped out U.S. import demand.
Thursday's deal also demonstrated China's determination to shift to cleaner burning gas as a transport fuel in an initiative that could cut its oil consumption by a tenth.
In a connected move, Eni said it also signed a joint study agreement with CNPC to develop the Rongchang onshore shale gas block in China, joining Shell among international players there.
China has huge shale resources, possibly bigger than those of the United States, but they are still a long way from being developed in any meaningful way.
The block covers about 2,000 square km (770 square miles) in the Sichuan Basin, close to the main consumption markets in China.
"The Rongchang block is the best area in China. We think it has reserves of 6-10 tcf," said Claudio Descalzi, Eni's head of exploration and production.
Eni already has shale gas agreements in countries including Poland, Ukraine Vietnam and the United States as well as a shale agreement with China's Sinopec.
Scaroni said he could not give any numbers on the shale gas deal with CNPC but that all his rivals would have wanted to sign it.
"These are maybe just two steps in a future alliance, which might have other new steps ... We don't look at it as a deal; we look at it as a strategic alliance between CNPC and Eni," he said.

Investigators were searching for a suspect and seeking information on a possible motive at the apartment building, off McPherson Church Road at 301 Barcelona Drive, Monday evening.

A CRAFTY crew of youngsters has been in stitches trying their hand at a fun form of recycling.
The pupils at District Primary School, in Newton-le-Willows, have been getting creative as they take part in the Eco Knit project.
They have been learning how to knit, sew and crochet and turn old clothing and plastic bags into everything from jewellery to rugs.
Funded by Merseyside Recycling and Waste Authority Community Fund, the Eco Knit project has gone down a storm with the children.
District is just one of five St Helens primary schools that have taken part in the project.
Organised by St Helens First Network, Eco Knit has helped teach children throughout the borough valuable craft skills, as well as the importance of recycling.
Karen Cliffe, St Helens First business manager, said: "It's been a real success. Children have really got into the spirit of it all and are now hoping to sell their products to raise money for the school's own eco council."
Councillor Joe DeAsha, chairman of Merseyside Recycling and Waste Authority stopped by at the school to learn a thing or two from the children.
He said: "It's great to see children getting involved in this unique project – it teaches them valuable waste prevention skills and also gets them thinking more generally about the waste we all create.
"The Community Fund is exactly what it says it is – a fund for the community, which helps to highlight waste reduction at the same time as supporting smaller projects that sometimes struggle to get financial backing."
