Fifty-two year old Willie R. Pitts from Abbeville was arrested in San Antonio Thursday evening at 6 p.m.
Pitts was charged by the Abbeville Police Department on July 28 for five counts of aggravated rape; Pitts's allegedly raped a minor and will be held on a $500,000 bond.
On August 5, after detectives in Abbeville determined that Pitts had fled their jurisdiction, they called the US Marshal's Fugitive Task Force for assistance. The US Marshals quickly began analyzing information and worked closely with the APD.
"Our first hunch was that Pitts had fled to either Alabama or Atlanta," Det. Stan Suire said.
Prision records and parole records indicated that Pitts had family in those areas. However, late Wednesday evening, the fugitive investigation turned West to San Antonio where investigators received information that Pitts may be in the Texas town.
Although law enforcement officials worked through the night to find Pitts he was not found until Thursday when Pitts' luck ran out.
Investigators learned that Pitts was residing with a family member on the 4600 block of Houston Street in San Antonio. Surveillance was established around the target residence. Pitts exited the residence, was positively identified and a traffic stop was conducted. Pitts denied his identity at first, but eventually realized that he was caught.
William Whittington, US Marshall for the Western District of Louisiana said, "The coordinated effort of all law enforcement to bring dangerous criminals to justice ensures that the streets and neighborhoods of Louisiana are a safer place to raise our children."
Annually, investigations carried out by the US Marshals result in the apprehension of approximately 34,000 federal fugitives. More federal fugitives are arrested by Marshals than all other federal agencies combined.
Chief Rick Coleman would like to commend the detectives who worked in conjunction with the Marshals for a job well done.
Pitts will be transferred to Abbeville from San Antonio and held in the Vermilion Parish Correctional Center.

Jerusalem (AFP) - Former Israeli premier Ehud Barak, who is challenging Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in upcoming elections, made an impassioned denial Wednesday of impropriety in his ties to disgraced US financier Jeffrey Epstein and hinted that Netanyahu was fanning media flames.
Barak, who has returned to politics ahead of September 17 elections as a fierce Netanyahu critic, has been the subject of reports highlighting his business ties with Epstein, who has been charged with sex trafficking of minors in the United States.
Speaking at a rally of his Israel Democratic Party late Wednesday, Barak said that he found any exploitation of women repugnant.
"I am a feminist," he said to audience applause. "To me violence and discrimination against women, silencing and marginalising women are crimes that destroy the foundations of equality and freedom."
A Tuesday report in Britain's Daily Mail showed pictures of Barak entering Epstein's New York residence in 2016, with the Israeli's face partially hidden by a neck-warmer.
"Married Israeli politician Ehud Barak is seen hiding his face entering Jeffrey Epstein's NYC townhouse as bevy of young beauties were also spotted going into mansion - despite his claim he NEVER socialized with the pedophile and his girls," said the Mail headline, which was also quoted in a letter to the paper from Barak's lawyers, threatening legal action.
Epstein had already in 2009 been convicted as a sex felon and served a 13-month prison term.
Barak's lawyers wrote to the Mail on Wednesday demanding that it retract the story immediately, apologise and pay "substantial damages to vindicate his reputation and compensate him".
"The article is disgraceful," said the letter, which was made public by Barak's spokesperson.
Barak himself on Wednesday described the report as "a despicable act, a lying and baseless blood libel".
"Like you I read the things ascribed to me and it is important to me to make clear here and now, unequivocally, they are lies and falsehoods," he said in Hebrew.
The Daily Mail report was the latest linking Epstein to Barak, whose campaign seeks to depict him as free of corruption in contrast to Netanyahu, who faces a possible corruption indictment in the months ahead.
Barak hinted that Netanyahu and his allies could ultimately be behind the media attention.
"Everyone who impedes Netanyahu and his extremists from reaching and being in government becomes a target for incitement and lies; becomes a traitor and worse," he said.
- $2.3-million grant -
A statement from Netanyahu's Likud party issued following Barak's comments said it was he who was lying.
"This lie from Ehud Barak will not let him evade answering to the citizens of Israel the question of what he did at the home of his friend and partner, the convicted paedophile Jeffrey Epstein and why he received $2.3 million for research that never existed," it said.
Israeli media have reported on a $2.3-million grant Barak received from the Wexner Foundation, where Epstein served as a trustee, for unspecified research in 2004.
Earlier this month, Israeli newspaper Haaretz reported that Epstein, whose 2009 conviction was for soliciting prostitution from a minor, had in 2015 invested in a start-up headed by Barak.
Barak admitted to giving Epstein "a second chance," saying in Facebook posts that the American financier was a "passive investor" and he was examining ending the affiliation in light of the latest allegations.

My thoughts on the old man and the sea A man is not made for defeat, a man can be destroyed but not defeated. This sentence has lingered in my mind since I finished the book" The Old Man and the Sea" In the face of fighting with this huge marlin, the old man did not release the fishing line in his hands for three days and nights, and the old man did not flinch when confronted with attack of sharks, but decided to pick up the wooden stick in the hands to defend their own harvest.
Such a tough guy image suddenly highlighted in front of me, which made me admire him and cheer for his strong mind. Challenge is of course nowhere in the present life. We need to learn from the old man who with a brave heart, in the face of challenges clenched his fist, rather than yield, avoid, and give up. In the boundless sea, the old man was sitting alone in the little sailing boat, and seemed so small under the setting sun in the distance, extraordinarily slim.
But the old man hadn't caught one fish since 84days ago. In t such situation, the old man was still optimistic, looking at the sun rise and set, watching the looming moon, and enjoying the company of fish and birds, and talking with wind and water. He just became one part of the sea. The sea, kind and beautiful, finally gave the old man a big marlin but the ocean was also cruel- lots of sharks came flooding to rob the fish, trying beating the old man and crushing his "glory". The old man's loneliness and happy were associated with the sea, through whom, the author enthusiastically praise the human's bravery when facing hardships. So no matter how difficult the things are, we all can't give up ourselves.

Kasba is a locality of South Kolkata, in West Bengal, India. It is situated in the southern part of the city encircled by the Sealdah South section of the Eastern Railways to the west, Dhakuria and Haltu to the south, the Eastern Metropolitan Bypass to the east and the locality of Tiljala to the north.
'Kasba' means hamlet in Bengali and that was what it was - a hamlet for the people working in the nearby leather and allied factories of Tiljala and Tangra and also for the people working in various capacities for the residents of their highly prosperous neighbouring locality of Ballygunge just across the railway track to the west. (Incidentally, the word 'kasba', which means the same in Hindi and Bengali, also means the same as the Arabic 'casbah'.)
The locality is served by the Ballygunge railway station, giving a boost to its accessibility. The first breakthrough for the locality came with the construction of the Bijon Setu, a flyover over the railway tracks right next to the Ballygunge railway station. This brought Kasba closer to the Kolkata mainstream and also resulted in quite a number of people finding the locality habitable.
But the rowdy image of the locality persisted when, in 1982, some communists murdered 17 members of the Ananda Marg sect on this very flyover.[4]
A recent and more remarkable development for Kasba was the linking of the Rash Behari Connector to the Eastern Metropolitan Bypass. This link made Kasba an integral part of the growth direction that the city was taking - towards the east. Kasba became more than just a passing area and stopover for a whole section of people taking the E.M. Bypass from Ballygunge and the whole south Kolkata. Cheap availability of land, proximity to the major business areas of the prosperous southern part of the city and excellent commuting facilities combined together taking this once volatile area to being one of the most economically viable and visible parts of the city.
The first developments took place around the junction of the Rash Behari Connector and the E.M. Bypass - the Kasba Golpark area. Ruby Hospital, the office of Siemens and a host of government-sponsored housing complexes came up in the area. Then the Meghalaya House shifted lock, stock and barrel to this growth region from their old premises at Russel Street, huge amounts of money began pouring into real-estate activities and this resulted in feverish construction activity all along the stretch of the Rash Behari Connector.
Apart from all these, Kasba has also become renowned for two of the biggest and well known Durga Pujas organised nowadays - the Kasba Bosepukur Shitala Mandir and Kasba Bosepukur Talbagan pujas, which draws thousands of people from across the city and state. Also, Dharmatala United Club's Kali Puja is a very big budget Puja in Kasba. Procession of this Puja is also worth watching.
Police district[edit]
Kasba police station is in the South Suburban division of Kolkata Police. It is located at 27-A, Bosepukur Road, Kolkata-700042.[5]
Patuli Women police station has jurisdiction over all police districts under the jurisdiction of South Suburban Division i.e. Netaji Nagar, Jadavpur, Kasba, Regent Park, Bansdroni, Garfa and Patuli.[5]
Jadavpur, Thakurpukur, Behala, Purba Jadavpur, Tiljala, Regent Park, Metiabruz, Nadial and Kasba police stations were transferred from South 24 Parganas to Kolkata in 2011. Except Metiabruz, all the police stations were split into two. The new police stations are Parnasree, Haridevpur, Garfa, Patuli, Survey Park, Pragati Maidan, Bansdroni and Rajabagan.[6]

Visa (NYSE:V) stock has exhibited a behavior not seen in a long time, it has stayed in place. The payments processor has consistently moved higher for the last few years as consumers across the world increasingly moved to card-based transactions. However, the lack of movement leaves V stock investors wondering what to do.Source: Shutterstock Market trends have left it seemingly immune from secular downturns. Still, it has also stopped responding positively. Considering the stock's history, as long as V stock remains in its current position, traders should probably do the same. Payment Trends, Dominance at Home Drive VisaVisa stock has performed well over the last few years. The company benefits as society increasingly turns from cash in favor of electronic payments. Within the U.S., most of those are made on Visa cards as the firm gains market share over processors such as Mastercard (NYSE:MA), American Express (NYSE:AXP) and Discover Financial (NYSE:DFS).InvestorPlace - Stock Market News, Stock Advice & Trading TipsVisa processed 53.1% of U.S. card transactions in 2018. Despite the competition, this percentage has continued to grow. Moreover, it operates on all six continents and lags only China UnionPay in worldwide transactions. * 7 Buy-Rated Stocks With Dividend Yields Over 9% At a forward price-to-earnings (P/E) ratio of 24.4, few consider this a cheap stock. However, with the record of profit growth it continues to accumulate, I find it hard to argue with the valuation. Over the previous five years, earnings grew by an average of 21.47% per year. Profit growth will slow somewhat in the future but remain robust. Wall Street forecasts earnings increases of 14.3% this year and 16.4% in the next.Clearly, Visa remains a strong stock. While I do not think cash will completely disappear, more people will conduct more transactions via card. Moreover, with numerous countries in the world mostly using physical cash, Visa has the potential to maintain double-digit growth for years to come. V Stock Has Become Range-BoundThe near-term problem for V stock is its lack of traction. On July 19, I urged investors not to buy Visa stock as valuations fully reflected growth potential. Other investors seem to see what I saw. Since that day, the V stock price is just under $180 per share, representing almost no change from mid-July levels.Hence, the question for investors is what will move V stock? Will it fall over a market downturn, or will a comparatively cheap valuation finally motivate buyers?Despite the ten-plus-year length of the economic expansion, it shows no signs of recession. This is significant because it takes turmoil in the market to take V stock into correction territory. It fell briefly into a bear market in the fall 2018 stock selloff. However, before that, it had not seen a significant selloff since 2010. This makes me wonder if this plateau is the closest thing we will see to a correction.For now, valuation looks like a more likely catalyst. When I warned investors to not buy in July, the forward P/E ratio stood above 29. With that forward multiple now at 24.4, the plateau has improved the buy case for V stock. Still, its 52-week high stands at $187.05 per share. That is only around 4% lower than the current price.If it can move to the $190 per share level and stay there, V stock will likely keep moving higher. However, if we experience a downturn in the market, investors may have a chance to buy in at a lower price. For now, all investors can do is wait. The Bottom Line on Visa StockSince V stock shows little movement, investors should probably do the same. Due in large part to e-commerce, traders across the world have turned more often to using credit cards. This plays in Visa's favor as a slight majority of U.S. card transactions take place on Visa's payment network. This will also continue to make V stock a long-term winner. * 10 Monster Growth Stocks to Buy for 2019 and Beyond However, with a slightly elevated P/E ratio, Visa stock currently prices in its present and future growth. With V stock staying in place, traders have no clue as to the direction of Visa in the short term. The lack of movement effectively lowers the P/E ratio due to profit growth.Moreover, V stock has no recent history of falling significantly without a market downturn.Until Visa can break out of its current trading range, traders have little reason to buy.As of this writing, Will Healy did not hold a position in any of the aforementioned stocks.

Lost file geodatabase feature class data records while editing; error message "Could not load data from data source. If you can correct the problem, press the refresh button to reload data".
While editing point feature class attributes, got the above error message after saving edits. I stopped editing, closed the table and re-opened it. 5 of 58 features were gone; these features were not selected or being edited when the error occurred.
Interestingly, there are still 5 completely blank records in the table (with no ObjectID). When I selected all records from the Table Options and looked at the selected records ("Show selected records"), the blank records were also shown in the selection color, and the text below table read: "58 out of 53 selected" (see image below).
I have read Knowledge Base article 000012169 ("Error: Could not load data from data source. If you can correct the problem, press the refresh button to reload data"), and can eliminate A ("feature class exceeds 2 GB"), C ("Username authentication configuration") and D ("Object name begins with a number, contains a space, or contains a special character"). I will check with our IT Dept. regarding B ("incorrect SQL Server Native Client version is used"), but I have done plenty of other feature editing on this computer without any problem.
I also looked at Knowledge Base article 000011778 ("Problem: NIM090672: Specific Microsoft updates may result in data corruption with file geodatabases or shapefiles created on a network share"). Though this specific issue is not applicable (I am running ArcGIS Desktop 10.4.1 on Windows 10 Pro operating system), I wonder if a similar issue with Microsoft Windows Updates could be occurring. I have been pestered repeatedly in the last few days to restart to finish installing updates, and even though I have scheduled this to occur several times, I keep getting the same prompt.
I had a very similar problem about 2 weeks ago while editing a different feature class in the same file geodatabase. Any ideas or suggestions are greatly appreciated!

Razor-sharp, focused and absolutely fabulous, Critical Incidents is the first in what promises to be a stunning new series by Lucie Whitehouse. Detective Inspector Robin Lyons has been dismissed from the Met, turned down a proposal, and is heading back to her Mum and Dad in Birmingham with her daughter Lennie. Home isn't necessarily a sanctuary when Robin starts to investigate a shocking crime and violence creeps ever closer. Keep You Close was one of our Books of the Year in 2016, so I had high hopes for Critical Incidents and it certainly lived up to expectations. I sat and read non-stop, just gobbling up the pages. There is an addictive quality to the writing, pithy, witty, stinging sentences walk hand in hand with compassion and emotion. The ending has left me wanting more, so I already can't wait for the next in the series. Critical Incidents is escapism at its very best, it is also provocative, eloquent and extremely rewarding, earning itself a pick of the month from me.
For me this was a truly addictive read, clever, convincing writing had me hooked from the get go. A suburban street is turned from an idyllic to truly awful place to live after a couple move in and create chaos for the other residents. When a terrible event occurs, everyone knows who to blame, but are they right? The premise is entirely believable and I could taste the anxiety of the residents of Lowland Way. Each chapter is headed by one of the householders, which slowly builds a picture of the street. Time travels from eight weeks before, through to the incident and beyond, allowing the tension to skyrocket. Louise Candlish is an award winning bestselling author, and we love her novels here at LoveReading. She has set an incredibly readable and thrilling story right in the middle of what could be your neighbourhood, it could be your neighbours, even your house being affected. She understands the small, the ordinary but incredibly frustrating things that can puncture and forever alter lives. A Liz Robinson pick of the month, Those People takes everyday normality and smashes it open, making a highly entertaining and enthralling tale.
Crossing genres in style, this just has to be one of my favourite novels of the year. Set in the marshlands of North Carolina, the majority of this story takes place in the 1950's and 60's. The prologue begins in 1969 with the body of Chase Andrews being found in the marsh. The first paragraph of the prologue introduces surprising beauty, the marsh simply sings, it settled into my mind and became a part of me. The central character is Kya, we meet her as a child, and the truth of her life is immediately apparent. As the novel moves backwards and forwards in time, Kya emerges as the Marsh Girl, and suspicion begins to hound her after the body is found. Author Delia Owens is a wildlife scientist who has worked in Africa and written non-fiction, this is her debut novel. Descriptions entered my mind in wafting movement, I fell in love with the marsh and the girl who lived there. Where the Crawdads Sing is truly touching, almost hauntingly beautiful, and opens a doorway to a different world. It has been chosen as a LoveReading Star Book and a Liz Robinson Pick of the Month.
So so readable, this is a throw yourself in and give yourself up to the story kind of book. The disappearance of a young woman means the past comes to haunt the present in a remote town on the edge of New Zealand. Nalini Singh is a New York Times bestselling author for her fantasy novels, this is her debut thriller (with a side serving of romance). The first sentence grabbed me and I read the whole book in one sitting. The story focuses on two main characters, Anahera who is returning home to Golden Cove, and Will the new, and only police officer in town. The town itself is fascinating, not only for the inhabitants and secrets it holds, but the descriptive detailing is so striking. I was able to step inside and see for myself this isolated coastal area. I remained in the story while a part of me dissected and explored the various options. At points I found myself ahead of the investigation, while at others I was racing to catch up. With an underlying tinge of darkness and difference A Madness of Sunshine is a thoroughly entertaining reading experience and has been chosen as a Liz Robinson pick of the month.
A Midwinter Promise by Sunday Times top ten bestselling author Lulu Taylor, is a dramatic story of loss, grief and the legacy of secrets. The past A lonely and imaginative child, Julia loves her family's beautiful and wild Cornish home with all her heart. But, marked by dark troubles, she enters her adult years determined to leave and seek a new beginning in London. It's there she meets the handsome David. They fall in love, but when Julia becomes pregnant, even he can't stop the terrible echoes of the past from ringing in her ears. The only sound to be heard above the noise is the old Cornish house, calling her home . . . The present For Julia's adult children, Alex and Johnnie, the house hides the history of their family within its walls. For Alex, it is full of memories of her late mother. For Johnnie, it is the house that should have been rightfully theirs after Julia died but has been stolen from them instead. With their father now lying in a hospital bed, time is running out for Alex and Johnnie to uncover the secrets of what happened to their mother all those years ago. Can they discover the truth before the house closes its doors to them forever?
A hard-hitting punch of a crime thriller is waiting to be discovered, but also within the pages lies a provocative and emotionally stunning read too. This debut was the winner of the 2018 Swedish Academy of Crime Writers' Award, and believe me, I can completely understand why. Lelle has been driving the silver road looking for his missing daughter for three years, his endless search consumes his very being. Within the first page I knew I had fallen in love with the writing, which is exquisitely translated. The words connected with my very being, I could feel the words, look around me and see my surroundings. Stina Jackson balances the dark and light quite beautifully, while tense and foreboding, there is also a silvery thread of hope to be found that thrums gently in the background. The cover of The Silver Road beckons, it leads to a read that emotionally connects, opens feelings and allows access to thoughts. Oh, and that ending… the ending sent goosebumps shivering down my arms. A highly recommended read indeed and one of my picks of the month.
A beautifully powerful read that sits in darkness, not an all-consuming menacing murk, but one with pinpricks of light that can be found and felt if you open yourself to the discovery. Stella McKeever is working on her final radio show, she is encouraging listeners to divulge their secrets and waiting another call from a man who claims he knows who murdered the pregnant woman in the city three weeks previously, but should some secrets stay secret? There are times when I think it might be slightly distracting to label a book with one specific genre and for me this is one of them. I know Call Me Star Girl is a psychological thriller, it certainly does thrill, it also made me feel a whole host of other emotions too. Louise Beech excels in writing about people, at their very best, very worst, and everything in between, so I'd rather not pop this book into a pigeon hole but let it fly. Each chapter is headed by a name, and either 'then', 'now' or 'with'. I quickly settled into the story while getting to know the characters, they became entirely real to me as I explored the how and why of who they were. While suspicion cut through my thoughts, unexpected slices of deep, aching surprise were served, and there is one particular moment that will stay with me for a very long time. Call Me Star Girl explored my feelings, touched my heart, and is one of my picks of the month, it is a truly glorious read.
A thoroughly modern, entertaining and seductive murder mystery, it felt as though I was enjoying a fabulously delicious and very guilty secret! It is New Years Eve in the Scottish Highlands, nine friends gather for a celebration, one is victim of murder, deep snow prevents the police from arriving and the killer from leaving. This is Lucy Foley's crim debut, I love her writing style and have simply gobbled up all of her historical fiction. My attention was well and truly snared when I heard the premise of The Hunting Party, I snatched it up, and oh boy, was it worth it! Skating between 'now,' set after and 'earlier' set before the murder, the two time frames hurtle towards each other until they implode in quite spectacular style. This is one of those stories where I veered from being sure I knew where it was going, to realisation that I really didn't… I almost felt as though I overheard too much, knew too much, and nearly started to fear for my own wellbeing. The mystery element certainly gave my mind a workout and the relationships are written quite beautifully too. I adore this change in direction by Lucy Foley, a wonderfully rewarding and fascinating experience awaits if you dare to join The Hunting Party.
It all started with one little lie . . . Jane and Marnie have been inseparable since they were eleven years old. They have a lot in common. In their early twenties they both fell in love and married handsome young men. But Jane never liked Marnie's husband. He was always so loud and obnoxious, so much larger than life. Which is rather ironic now, of course. Because if Jane had been honest – if she hadn't lied – then perhaps her best friend's husband might still be alive . . . This is Jane's opportunity to tell the truth, the question is: Do you believe her?
If someone was in your house, you'd know . . . Wouldn't you? But the Hunter family are deaf, and don't hear a thing when a shocking crime takes place in the middle of the night. Instead, they wake up to their worst nightmare: the murder of their daughter. The police call Paige Northwood to the scene to interpret for the witnesses. They're in shock, but Paige senses the Hunters are hiding something. One by one, people from Paige's community start to fall under suspicion. But who would kill a little girl? Was it an intruder? Or was the murderer closer to home? This mystery will keep you up all night - perfect for fans of The Silent Patient and Cara Hunter
Burning with an intense, provocative fire, this is a debut that doesn't flinch from the troubled world it creates. 25 years ago, a 16 year old school girl and her teacher disappeared, now a journalist investigates the mystery at the heart of the boarding school. The prologue intrigues, answering a question while bursting open many more. I felt a seductive unsettling call and settled in. Three women sit centre stage in this story, the missing Louisa, her friend Victoria, and the journalist. I gained access to the school and sank into the heady highs and lows of teenage years. A veil of mystery covers Temple House, the school sits in both time periods, a chilling constant between the two. It is as much about the unsaid, the unseen, as it is what is revealed, and Rachel Donohue handles the balance with surety. The ending really spoke to me, it opened my thoughts and encouraged them to travel. I have no doubt that The Temple House Vanishing will stay with me for some time to come, it is an assured and compelling debut.

This intelligent, beautifully eloquent and powerful crime novel thoroughly provoked my feelings, and still remains in my thoughts. Mickey Fitzpatrick is a police officer patrolling the area she grew up in. Kensington in Philadelphia is known for drugs and sex workers, when a killer arrives on the streets, Mickey prays that her little sister doesn't become a victim. The author Liz Moore has an intimate knowledge of the real Kensington, she has interviewed the people drawn there by drugs, written non fiction, and completed community work, she obviously cares a great deal for this neighbourhood and its people. Her novel set in Kensington has been a long time in the coming, she wanted to: "do this world justice", to: "fairly represent". As I started to read, the 'list' stopped me in my tracks, I read it again, pondered, and then moved on to the first two pages which hit my mind with a wallop and gave it a good shake. Mickey narrates her story, she is so clear, sharp, on point, and I could see, feel, taste her words. Kensington, Mickey and her family flooded my mind in short, fierce, expressive chapters of 'then' and 'now'. I felt a connection to emotions, to this story, it truly spoke to me. I feel this novel will be one that I regularly return to, and I'll take away something a little different each time. Long Bright River is a stunning read, it aches with poignant, vivid intensity and I absolutely loved it. There is no other option for me, than to choose it as a LoveReading Star Book, and a Liz Robinson Pick of the Month.
From the breakthrough international bestselling author of The Girl in the Ice, a breathtaking, page-turning novel about a disgraced female detective's fight for redemption. And survival. Kate Marshall was a promising young police detective when she caught the notorious Nine Elms serial killer. But her greatest victory suddenly became a nightmare. Fifteen years after those catastrophic, career-ending events, a copycat killer has taken up the Nine Elms mantle, continuing the ghastly work of his idol. Enlisting her brilliant research assistant, Tristan Harper, Kate draws on her prodigious and long-neglected skills as an investigator to catch a new monster. But there's much more than her reputation on the line: Kate was the original killer's intended fifth victim . . . and his successor means to finish the job.
Memento meets Sharp Objects in this superb thriller from the bestselling author of Something in the Water, a 2019 Richard & Judy Book Club pick When a man is found on a Norfolk beach, drifting in and out of consciousness, with no identification and unable to speak, interest in him is sparked immediately. From the hospital staff who find themselves inexplicably drawn to him; to international medical experts who are baffled by him; to the nationalpress who call him Mr Nobody; everyone wants answers. Who is this man? And what happened to him? Neuropsychiatrist Dr Emma Lewis is asked to assess the patient. This is her field of expertise, this is the chance she's been waiting for and this case could make her name known across the world. But therein lies the danger. Emma left this same small town in Norfolk fourteen years ago and has taken great pains to cover all traces of her past since then. But now something - or someone - is calling her back. And the more time she spends with her patient, the more alarmed she becomes. Has she walked into danger?
An unsettling and absorbing psychological thriller, set within a street that just seethes with the awareness of past events. Leah and Jake move to the basement flat of a large house, just as the owner, Anton, is released from prison 19 years after being convicted of murdering his wife in their home. As Anton and Leah tentatively move towards friendship, will the past come to haunt the present? This is a read that pounced from the very first page. The author combination really works for me, Paul Perry and Karen Gillece excel in balancing a believable plot with multifaceted characters, while ramping up the tension. Layer upon layer of delightfully chilling intrigue highlighted the unknown. Questions built up in my mind, ensuring I was successfully kept on tenterhooks throughout. Come A Little Closer is a properly riveting read, it crept into mind spaces I didn't even know I had, and I just had to choose it as one of my Liz Robinson Picks of the Month.
An intelligent, interesting, eloquent mystery which fairly bristles with whodunit verve! This is the third in the Katie Flanagan series, you could actually read this as a standalone, but I recommend starting at the beginning with Deep Water. Katie heads as an undercover technician to a lab researching deadly viruses jumping the species barrier. There is something suspicious happening at the laboratory, and events are set to take a lethal turn. The prologue thoroughly and completely sets the scene with a newspaper report highlighting the danger of a horrific virus that appears to have crossed from monkey to human. We then jump forward two years, and I quickly fell into step alongside Katie, just who if anyone, can she trust? The chapter headings set the timing in play, adding to the tense atmosphere. Christine Poulson's eloquent pen brings the lab to life, makes the threat of the diseases feel so very real, and sets a fabulously chilling undertone. I suspected everyone, and could almost feel myself glaring at them as I read. An Air That Kills takes a deadly subject, ramps up the tension, and releases a wonderfully readable and thrilling mystery for your enjoyment.
A thoroughly interesting and engaging mystery that slowly but surely gathers pace until it fairly rockets along. When Graham spots an unexpected face at a hotel, he believes his past has come to pay a visit. His reporting skills come to the fore as he begins to investigate but events quickly turn from a friendly to deadly game. This was my first book by Paul Trembling, and as I read there were suggestions of a previous story, yet this felt like a complete and standalone tale. I later discovered that his previous novel Local Artist features Graham's wife Sandra, ahhh, that explains those snippets of information! You can certainly start as I did, with Local Legend, though I do now want to find out what happened in Sandra's tale. Paul Trembling is a former Crime Scene Investigator, and his knowledge ensures an authentic read. The family bond and relationship sits beautifully alongside the mystery elements. The quotes at the beginning of each chapter work really well and introduce the continuing story beautifully. With a cracking storyline and an ending that had me visiting the edge of my seat, Local Legend becomes a fast-paced, high octane ride.
If you like your books to be a little twisted, dark, and provocative, then *waves frantically* stop right here! A suicide cult suddenly makes headlines, the members have no idea about each other, but one day, drop everything, and end their lives. Will Carver has the ability to create some truly disturbing, challenging, and fabulously readable books (do check out Good Samaritans). However, please be warned, this could be a really difficult read for some. The prologue is intruiging and then some, chapter one is heart in mouth time, chapter two slammed home and made me think in a different way. Time played backwards and forwards, ripping open holes into lives, allowing me to see, to witness, but did I understand? Little snippets made me pause, I flinched, I cringed, my thoughts probed to and fro. This is one book where I had absolutely no idea where it was going, and I loved that. Nothing Important Happened Today is clever, incredibly simple, yet full on reading pleasure.

At 11pm on February 28th, my brother sent a text saying, "Happy last hour of black history month…" . It was a half joking yet eerily deep text that embodied the feelings that many Blacks experience when the end of February arrives. Every February I feel a hurried obligation to learn new history about the contributions that Blacks have made in this country and worldwide. The notion that our contribution has been small enough to fit into one month and isn't worth exploring outside of those 28 days is the root of these hurried feelings.
This February however, I paid my respects by reflecting on the future of the Black community in Detroit and throughout the nation. One question that has been on replay in my mind lately is, ' how do we bring about the change that we've been talking about in liberal circles for hundreds of years'. In Detroit and many major cities there is much discussion surrounding recent trends in gentrification. I've been thinking about the ways that gentrification impacts the Black community here in Detroit. So far my observations have lead me to believe that there is gentrification that is considered "acceptable"and there is gentrification that is considered bad. Gentrification that is generally accepted would be a non-profit "doing good" in the city. However it seems most of the non-profits are run by white males, a fact that is problematic and one that speaks to a deeper issue. If non-profits are truly committed to bettering the community… why do they continue to mirror oppressive systems?
A couple weeks back the fellows had the opportunity to go see the new James Baldwin documentary called, I Am Not Your Negro. It was a thought provoking movie that inspired me to keep thinking about systems and how they can change for the better. The movie also inspired me to begin processing my thoughts regarding systems of oppression on paper. I know that concrete solutions won't arrive over night, but I feel I owe it to myself and others like me to continue contributing to the conversation.

expiredGet the Peak Design 45L Travel Backpack, Tech & Wash Pouch for $370 shipped (Reg. $420)
Patrick Campanale - Feb. 6th 2019 1:53 pm ET
Huckberry is offering Peak Design's Travel Backpack with Tech and Wash Pouch for $369.98 shipped. The same bundle is available direct from Peak when you add all three to your cart and proceed to checkout, though the price is $377.88 shipped there. For comparison, if you were to purchase all separately, you'd be charged $420 and this is a very rare discount. The Travel Backpack itself is 45L, so it's perfect to carry absolutely anything you need. The Tech Pouch is my personal favorite, as I can keep multiple cables, power adapters, and dongles in it for easy access when I'm on the go. The Wash Pouch is great for toiletries, with its webbed compartments for easy access to necessities and it hangs to make it a perfect travel companion. We've gone hands-on with Peak's Travel Backpack twice now, for everyday usage and cross-country trips and have loved it in every scenario.

Per NFL Network's Ian Rapoport and Mike Garofolo, the Bears are "likely" to place right guard Kyle Long on injured reserve, a move which could potentially end a disappointing season for the 30-year-old former first round pick.
If Long indeed lands on injured reserve before Week 7, he could theoretically return for the Bears' final three games of the regular season (players designated to return need to spend at least eight weeks on injured reserve). But if he were to miss the rest of the season, it would be a particularly brutal way for Long's seventh year in the NFL — and potentially his time with the Bears — to end.
Long re-structured his contract earlier this year, leaving it with only $1.5 million in dead cap for 2020. The Bears could save $8.1 million in salary cap space by releasing Long after the 2019 season, per Spotrac.
Long talked in the offseason of finally feeling healthy after not having to undergo offseason surgery following three injury-plagued years. A Pro Bowler in his first three seasons in the NFL, Long played in eight, 10 and eight games from 2016-2018, and has started four of the Bears' five games in 2019.
The Bears listed Long as being limited or out of practice over the last few weeks with a hip injury, which was why they held him out of their Week 4 win over the Minnesota Vikings.
Long did not play well in the four games he started this year, with his team-worst PFF grade of 37.5 matching the eye test. On the "Football Aftershow" on NBC Sports Chicago following last week's Bears-Raiders game, longtime Bears center Olin Kreutz said of Long:
"You could make an argument that they have to take a good, long look at Kyle Long, and where he's at, and does he need weeks off… does he need to go on IR, is Rashaad Coward a better option. If you take a really good look at the film, and this is hard for me to say, because I am a big fan of Kyle long, and I've watched him for a long time play a high level of football, where he was a dominant right guard… What I've seen in the first 3 weeks, and in this week, I wonder about his body, I really do, and I wonder where he is in his career."
Placing Long on injured reserve, though, would be an attempt for the Bears to fix an offensive line that's lagged in both pass protection and run blocking.
Long's replacement could be either veteran Ted Larsen or greenhorn Rashaad Coward. Larsen did not travel to London with the Bears due to a knee injury suffered in Week 4, so depending on his status after the Bears' off week he may not even be an option in a week when the New Orleans Saints come to Soldier Field.
That would leave Coward, who played his first snaps as an NFL offensive lineman after Larsen's injury against the Minnesota Vikings. He possesses intriguing athleticism, but also was developed almost exclusively as a tackle after switching positions (he began his NFL career as a defensive lineman) back in the spring of 2018.
Another option for the Bears could be to promote undrafted free agent Alex Bars from their practice squad. Bars — who was recruited to Notre Dame by Bears' offensive line coach Harry Hiestand and played under him for four years there — had a good preseason, and was regarded as a likely mid-round draft pick before his 2018 season in South Bend ended in September with a torn ACL and MCL.
Better play from Hiestand's right guard wouldn't solve everything that's ailed the Bears' offensive line this year, but it would be a start. Placing Long on injured reserve certainly would not be an easy decision made inside Halas Hall, given how much he's sacrificed and fought through to be on the field over the last few years.
But, rather unfortunately, it might be a path the Bears need to take.
Kyle Long played his ass off for Chicago. When healthy top 5 Guards in the NFL. These decisions suck for everyone.— Olin kreutz (@olin_kreutz) October 13, 2019

From Wikizilla, the kaiju encyclopedia
Tsunolla (ツノラ is a Tsunora)kaiju created by General Entertainment and Toho that first appeared in the 1998 Godzilla video game, Godzilla Generations.
Tsunolla's name comes from the word tsuno (角, meaning horn, in reference to the horns it has at the top of its head, combined with the common tsuno)kaiju suffix -ra.
Like the other original Godzilla Generations monsters, Tsunolla's design is very simple. It is a light brown chibi creature with two horns atop its head and a pair of eyes with sclera, iris and pupils. It shares its basic 3D model with Debura.

These are external links and will open in a new window. Endurance swimmer Diana Nyad has become the first person to swim from Cuba to the US without a shark cage. After about 53 hours' non-stop swimming, the year-old American reached Key West, Florida, escorted by boats and her team of 35 people.
Why are there no swimming pools in Cuba? Because everyone who knows how to swim has already left the island. Despite its spitting distance of the Florida coast, the Republic of Cuba has long ceased to pose the threat it once did to American lives.

The waves crash hard and unskilled swimmers can be slammed against the reef, banged up, scraped or even killed. The largest number of bathers gathers at the intersection of Paseo del Prado, where the reef has natural swimming holes, a favourite spot for children who splash around and older women who dip their toes. The teenagers and young men, meanwhile, continue their dives, with the most daring jumping off the top of the wall.
Onlookers crowded around the year-old swimmer when she came ashore in Key West. Nyad's lips were swollen, and she appeared exhausted, dazed and determined when she addressed the crowd. One is, we should never, ever give up.
MIAMI — The sign from God and the Virgin Mary came near the end of their perilous, sun-scorched journey from Cuba to Florida: A dozen or so dolphins swam up to their home-built, overloaded sailboat, dipping in and out of the water, guiding them, they felt, toward a reimagined future.

It is the longest school break of the year, which is between one academic year and another, and many workers and non-essential workplaces plan their vacations to coincide with their children. Naturally it is a time of the year to have fun, break the routine. Maybe visiting relatives. However, the reality is that we do not have the necessary resources to make the holidays what the word implies.

Pasture Huts
Pasture Huts are a native Detoran home of the Misty Pasture. Common for placing them along their nomadic pasture trails these huts have a good standing for enduring the heat as well as cold months. Detorans often have two built homes depending on their trails. Unlike nomadic humans they do not take these home with them as they are immobile. All belongings are often moved minus appliances. The groups often change locations every 6 months and return with herd and tribe to their homes. Majority of Detorans of Misty Pastures live on the Pasture, a small portion live in the actual city. The Pasture is in risk of their home constantly receding due to humans manufacturing.
Sensory & Appearance
Huts vary in size meaning they can be small to large. All usually have the same layout minus those who either never upgrade their homes or such. Walking inside a person is often exposed to the kitchen/dining room/living room. A half wall usually extends from behind the kitchen or dining area leading to bathroom or bedroom.
Contents & Furnishings
Praying alters are often located the dining room on a sideboard usually having a small mat,dish with cosmos fruit laying inside. Sometimes incense are lit for calming meditation and praying purposes.
In the past outhouses were common along with public bathing,in recent times huts have opted to modify all homes with bathrooms. Most homes from above simply look like circular homes with a smaller circle attached,that is the location for all hygiene related purposes. Some places have actual built inner walls to creating actual rooms for privacy versus looking like studios,unlike the Hibernis yurt.
Homes were originally used with mud but since then started the use of brick. Beams are built to create the structure followed by building a cob wall and brick used as decorative design. The roof is made of concrete tiles. The only window is usually located near the kitchen.

22 Apr HAPPY EARTH DAY!
Earth day is a worldwide celebration that takes place to show support for environmental protection, something that needs to continue to get more attention than on just one day – Earth Day should be every day. And more than a celebration is called for – globally, everyone needs to be made very aware of the issues surrounding the need to keep our world from becoming a huge junk yard. Everything from the air, water and soil, and species from birds, to fish to mammals and humans, are directly impacted by the poor care we have taken of our planet – which is the only home we currently have.
So it is becoming even more imperative to teach everyone how important it is that we care and nurture the Earth – starting to teach the youth early on is a great way to impress upon this up and coming generation, how serious a job taking care of the Earth is. Not just for one day, but every single day.
To help build this awareness, "Ding" Darling Wildlife Society and the City of Sanibel Department of Recreation will be hosting a youth contest to celebrate Earth Day. The awareness and education activities include a song or poem contest for youth grades 4 thru 8. The topic is Earth Day with a poem that is a minimum of three lines or a song written to the tune of "Old MacDonald". Youth in grades K thru 3 may submit a drawing inspired by Earth Day. CLICK HERE to access Coloring Contest Form. CLICK HERE to access Song or Poem Contest Form.

Slater & Gordon to sue Watchstone after disastrous £637m Quindell deal
The Australian law firm crippled by its £637m deal to buy the bulk of Quindell is launching a lawsuit against the rump of the scandal-hit British company.
Slater & Gordon has warned Watchstone, as Quindell is now called, that it "intends to bring claims" against it following the calamitous acquisition, sending shares in the Aim-listed business plunging 12.4pc to 189.25p. Watchstone had been due at the end of November to receive £50m that had been held in an escrow account since the Slater & Gordon deal, but the looming legal battle could result in the money being clawed back by the law firm.
Watchstone said that it "does not believe there are grounds for a claim to be brought and will defend...

HammertoesFull List of Services >>
Toes are often overlooked and underappreciated by many of us. After all, what do they do beside rub in your shoes and often get cramped?
Toes actually provide an important function during walking and as a result of that can develop problems of their own. The development of: bursa, corns, abscesses, ingrown toe nails, tendonitis, subluxations and angular deformity (Hammer Toe Syndrome) all can be produced by abnormal function of the toes.
During gait, the arch of the foot naturally depresses to help absorb shock. One of the ways that the arch tries to elevate again is accomplished is by the gripping of the toes. They help to stabilize the metatarsal heads, pull the heel bone further forward to shorten the arch and elevate the heel.
Hammertoe causes during the process of gait, if an abnormal amount of force is misdirected, (the arch being too low or the foot being too unstable) the toes must over grip and increase their actions. Often times this leads to a muscular imbalance causing deformity to the toes.
