It's one thing when an obscure blogger engages in political hackery. It's quite another when a major newspaper does so.
Communist "journalist" I.F. Stone famously observed that "What makes the Washington Post a great newspaper is that you never know on what page you'll find the page-one story." Sometimes, the page-one story is nowhere to be found, except in the archives.
For instance, yesterday, the WaPo devoted no less than three stories to the Senate GOP filibuster against President Barry's nominee to fill a seat on the United States Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit. One pretends to be a straight news story by Paul Kane ("Democrats said that the GOP filibuster was a politically motivated
effort to halt the career of a potential Supreme Court justice"). Another is an op-ed from Greg Sargent, bemoaning filibusters generally. The third and final is the third editorial on the editorial page, which called for an "up or down vote."
The D.C. Circuit is often described as "the second-most important court in the land," given its jurisdiction over Federal agencies and rule-making, and the fact that those who sit on it are frequently promoted to the United States Supreme Court. No fewer than four sitting Justices --- Antonin Scalia; Clarence Thomas, Ruth Bader Ginsburg, and Chief Justice John Roberts --- sat first on the D.C. Circuit.
So it's little surprise that Presidents treat their appointments to the D.C. Circuit seriously, and Senators treat them no less seriously when considering their confirmation.
On Wednesday, Senate Democrats failed to break a Republican filibuster against one such nominee, Caitlin Halligan. I won't get into the merits or demerits of that nomination. What is interesting is the facts that are absent from the WaPo's three articles on the issue.
What do all three have in common? Not a single one mentions that the seat to which Halligan has been appointed is the one vacated by Chief Justice John Roberts in 2005, and that Democrats refused to vote on President Bush's nominee to fill the seat, Peter D. Keisler, who served briefly as acting Attorney General in the Bush Administration, and on whose nomination Democrats refused to act when they seized control of the Senate in 2006.
It's not like this fact is hard to find; after all, Wikipedia has a nice entry on the D.C. Circuit which includes identification of the tenure of various judges in office, and another on Keisler. One would thing that this fact is of at least marginal significance, particularly since the WaPo's editorial complains that "When lawmakers hold nominees hostage to politics and ideology, trampling
the legitimate prerogative of the president to staff the government and
the judiciary, it degrades the effectiveness of government and the
courts, deters qualified people from pursuing public service and poisons
the politics in Washington."
And indeed, five years ago, the WaPo called it "a travesty that [Keisler] has yet to get a vote from the Senate Judiciary Committee," so I can't call the WaPo's attitude "hypocritical," which was how this post got started
But why is it any less a "travesty" that Democrats seek to profit from their petulance by putting one of their own into a seat they unfairly held open? The WaPo does not explain, because no one there wants people to remember how we got here.
Blogger Sargent is correct about one thing, however: Democrats are reaping what they sowed. However, Sargent is incorrect in complaining that it's about "weak" filibuster "reform." What they sowed was a war over the Federal judiciary. It's a battle they chose when they went to the courts to pursue an agenda they couldn't pass democratically, and when they smeared the late Robert Bork. And it's one they doubled down upon when they unfairly blocked President Bush's judicial nominees. Complaining about Senate Republicans finally choosing to engage in the battle by employing like tactics is simply a demand that the other side unilaterally disarm.
After all, if those wascally Wepublicans didn't use the same weapons as the Democrats, they'd be so much easier to defeat.

MONTGOMERY — A state senator on Tuesday said even though Alabama has a right-to-work law, he'll sponsor a constitutional amendment to prohibit union dues paying as a condition of employment.
"We can't take for granted our right to work," state Sen. Gerald Dial said at a State House news conference. "We need to put it in the Constitution."
MONTGOMERY — A state senator on Tuesday said even though Alabama has a right-to-work law, he'll sponsor a constitutional amendment to prohibit union dues paying as a condition of employment.
"We can't take for granted our right to work," state Sen. Gerald Dial said at a State House news conference. "We need to put it in the Constitution."
Dial's announcement that he will sponsor a right-to-work constitutional amendment drew criticism from organized labor.
Alabama AFL-CIO President Al Henley said Dial should be working for people in his district instead of fighting unions who negotiate for wages and benefits.
"In Sen. Dial's district, the median family income is about $10,000 per year less than the national average," Henley said. "It looks like he should be working to strengthen the middle class instead of weakening it."
Dial's proposed amendment would prohibit agreements that would deny jobs based on membership or non-membership in a labor union or organization. He said he doesn't want Alabama to turn into another Michigan where some blame organized labor for the loss of thousands of jobs.
The Republican-dominated Michigan Legislature this month sent right-to-work bills to Gov. Rick Snyder. Michigan Capitol authorities had to pepper spray some of the 12,500 protesters when punches were thrown at a demonstration.
President Barack Obama weighed in on Michigan. "The so-called 'right-to-work' laws — they don't have to do with economics, they have everything to do with politics," Obama said. "What they're really talking about is giving you the right to work for less money."
Garry "Gabby" Frost, president of the Northeast Alabama Labor Council, said right-to-work isn't about prohibiting union membership because compulsory union membership is against the law. He said it's about representation without paying for it.
"If a person doesn't want to be union, that's fine, but if they reap the benefits from off the union's back, that's wrong," he said.
Sen. Cam Ward, R-Alabaster, said he'll co-sponsor the proposed amendment in the 2013 legislative session that begins Feb. 5.
"There have been legislative attempts over the years to change the law," Ward said. "I can tell you that unions have a purpose, but when they're overzealous like some of the Midwestern states, it hurts recruitment. I'm talking about Michigan."
Dial said he decided to sponsor the amendment after an industry trip to South Korea, where officials told him right-to-work laws are important when considering where to locate investments. "It certainly tells them Alabama is a right-to-work state," Dial said of his proposed amendment.
He acknowledged that the chances of repealing current right-to-work laws are slim because of the dominance the Republican Party has in the House and Senate. But he said that could change if Alabama's political winds shift.
James Crowder, president of the West Alabama Labor Council in Tuscaloosa, vowed political retaliation in the 2014 elections.
"(Right to work) has been here forever and this is nothing but what's going on in Michigan," Crowder said. "They need to watch themselves, we're going to be working on trying to replace some of these Republicans at the state level."
The Business Council of Alabama said it has Dial's back.
"BCA strongly supports Alabama's right to work status for its benefits to economic growth, industrial recruitment and job creation," BCA President William Canary said in a statement.
Alabama is the most heavily unionized state in the Southeast, with between 10 percent and 11 percent of the state's workers in AFL-CIO unions, according to Henley. That's about 50,000 men and women, he said.
"A right to work law is already in effect and a constitutional amendment is unnecessary," Henley said. "Sen. Dial and his pro-business, millionaire colleagues are on the verge of waking up a sleeping giant."
Bentley on Tuesday announced a German automotive parts manufacturer, Rausch & Pausch LP, for Auburn. The company said it will invest $18 million and create 105 new jobs over the next five years.
"The pro-business climate in Alabama was one of the key reasons why we came here," said Dr. Roman Pausch, president of Rausch & Pausch GmbH. "Locally, one could not ask for a better economic development program,"
Canary said the announcement "is a clear indicator that Alabama's right-to-work status is a pro-business tool that helps creates jobs."
Dial said his legislation will be con-sponsored by Sen. Tom Whatley, R-Auburn.
Phillip Dunlap, economic development director for Auburn, said he believes Alabama's right-to-work status helps land industry. "We point out that Alabama is a right-to-work state," he said.

I am an American girl who has seen Tim McGraw live 18 times and as traditional as they come. I do not, however, participate in baby showers. This ceremonial welcoming of a baby rarely treats birth with reverence. I believe women can - and should - birth naturally and breastfeed their babies. The American way of having babies is in crisis. This is an educational blog; exploring birth, breastfeeding, & attachment parenting. I am a Natural Childbirth Educator and this is my voice.

Leashing Your Kids
A few weeks back, I posed the question on my Banned From Baby Showers Facebook page, what topics would you like to see on the blog? Several of you asked what I thought of leashing your kids.
So, what is the politically correct response to this question, especially from an advocate of Attachment Parenting? I'd have to say, surely it is to not leash your child, like you would your dog, right?
The only time any of my children were leashed was when Vena (#2) was about 18 months old. We were at "Breakfast on the Plaza" for a 4th of July celebration in my hometown of Santa Fe, NM. My dad insisted that I put her on my old leash because there were so many people. I absolutely refused and told him that if he wanted her on a leash, he was going to have to do it. He got her harnessed up and it lasted, maybe, 5 minutes. She screamed her head off! (I thoroughly enjoyed it.) With everyone staring, he agreed that maybe it wasn't the best idea. He said that if only I'd started her off that way as soon as she started walking, it would have worked. Yes, this was the parenting I was raised on.
I have no doubt that my dad was just concerned for Vena's safety, and mine when I was a toddler. It is a scary thing for any parent to have a small child in a large crowd. It only takes a split second to lose them.
As you can imagine, I carried all my babies in a sling and rarely even used a stroller. When they got older and we were on all-day outings, I would definitely take a stroller too. But sometimes, let's face it, the kid wants out -- and needs out -- to run around, to stretch their legs. Obviously, the parents have to watch them every single second and it can be a stressful event.
All kids are so different too. When my son was about 2, we lost him in a Super Target in Orem, UT. OK, wait -- David lost him -- I was in a dressing room. He let him out of the cart "for just a second," and he was gone. One thing about Daymon, when his feet hit the ground, he was running! For 10 minutes we had no idea where our son was. He had made it to the very back of the store when a very nice lady picked him up. Yadda, yadda, yadda, David learned his lesson!
I read a funny story one time about a mom who was in the front yard with all the neighborhood moms and kids. Her 2 year old boy took off down the road. She had a baby on her hip and another one on the way. She was wearing "the cutest clogs" and had no idea how she was going to chase her son down the road. She got a great idea and yelled as loud as she could "ETHAN! ICE! CREAM!" Sometimes we have to be resourceful. Each child is so different and cannot be treated the same as the next.
I think it's really easy to judge a parent that has their child on a leash -- I know I've done it -- but in the end, we don't know the parent's frame of mind at that point. (Maybe they've lost a child before, maybe she's pregnant and not feeling well, maybe the kid hates the stroller and screams in it, etc.) There could be a million reasons why they made the decision to use a leash. Ultimately, if the child is happy (not screaming like Vena was), mom or dad is probably happy, everyone is safe. I don't really care. I'd rather see a happy toddler walking around on a leash than a parent trying to keep a child in a stroller, cramming a bottle in his mouth trying to keep him quiet. We've all witnessed that, I'm sure.
One of my former students was at the zoo recently and she sent me a picture of a father holding up a stroller with the child in it to see the animals. Heaven forbid he should take the child out and actually hold him up to see. They obviously wanted the child to stay in the stroller. A leash would have been so much better and have forced the parents to have more interaction with their child.
So, I don't think this is so cut and dry. It must offend us because we see it the same way as leashing a dog. But why do people leash their dogs? So they don't run away. It's all the same. People love their dogs. People love their children. They want them to have the freedom to walk, but they also want them to be kept safe. Besides, the leashes I've seen lately are so cute, like animal backpacks! Mine was just a rope, like a hanging.
What I'd really like at this point in my life is a leash for my 14-year-old son. That's another story for another day.

let me start off by saying I love your blog!I get sooo nervous when people I admire speak ona topic I am on the opposite side of so I was nervous when you apporached leashes. I loved my sons leash. He and his sister are only 15 months apart and until my daughter was about 2.5 months old we didn't have a car.
So we caugth the bus to hadnle our affais. Thank Goodness the city were in had great public transportation! But all of that to say I do not know how I would have handled a newborn and a toddler on the bus with out my wonderful back-pack leash. It had a sesame street chacater on it and my son loved his leash he got to walk around and see everything while staying safe.
Althought he hated when he got to the end of the leash. LOL
I love in was a real and physical lesson on boudaries.

I have been back and forth about leashes. When my sister told me she had a little backpack one for my 2 year old neice I was very skeptical. Then I saw how she loved wearing it and wanted me to hold the other end. Somehow she felt independent but safe knowing someone was holding her too. I like the idea that my baby is used to being in a sling, but I guess you never know how they will be when they are big enough to run around!

I've never felt the need for a leash. Usually when I'm out I get the feeling my kids would rather have ME on a leash.
Just gotta say, I feel exactly the same about having animals as pets (much to the dismay of my own animal-lovers) Kids are enough to take care of and clean up after. I've come to believe that animals were meant to live outdoors. :)

I was just wondering about this myself as I was on a family vacation and saw my husband's cousin 'leash' her toddler who is close to the same age as my son. I never thought I'd leash my son, but as he's starting to walk and my belly is expanding with baby #2, the leash looked sort of... like a life saver. I hate the thought of it but can appreciate the usefulness of it.

Before I had kids I would have never understood the need for a leash, I will admit that. I probably thought something really rude like, "Just get control of your kids". I know, what a jerk. Anyway, I have never needed one, but if someone does, I say Go For IT!! Whatever you feel you need to do to keep your kids safe.
You mentioned people keeping their kids in strollers. Both of my kids are very good in the stroller. We usually only need it at the mall, but the rule is that they can NOT get out. (Obviously at the zoo, or a place where they can explore it would be different) But not at the mall. And they never cry or ask to get out (even my 3 year old). I think seeing a mom hold a baby, chase a toddler AND push an empty double stroller is just as bad as seeing a crying kid in a stroller with a parent cramming a bottle in their mouth. I think it's our duty as the parent to do what is best for the kid, (either pick them up in your example, or stick them back in the stroller in my example) whether they like it or not. We are the parent, they are the child. So if a leash is deemed necessary by a responsible parent, so be it! :)

It's so funny...I have been thinking about this a lot lately. I always looked down on parents who had their kids on leashes. And then I had twins and now have a 2 year old and 8 month old infants, and the leash idea looks a lot better than my son running out in the street when my hands are full of baby.
I don't think we'll need to get a leash because he rides in the stroller pretty well. And if I'm out with my husband too, one of us can hold him if we need to. I guess I've just learned to NEVER judge parents for their choices (unless it's a clear legal issue) because we all have different experiences and children.

There are some very good reasons already mentioned here as to why a parent would want to use a "leash" for their child... but there is one very good reason, the main reason I used them on both my sons, and a good reason why my mom used them on me and my sibilings. That reason is for the comfort of the child. Go walk around with your arm stretch up in the air for 30 minutes and see how fun that is! It's not only uncomfortable to walk around like that, it's also restrictive. With a leash a child can feel safe AND independant at the same time... I know, because I remember mine and I remember how much i LOVED my leash! I could explore and know exactly where my mom was at all times. To me, it's the best alternative to letting kids wander with little to no adult awareness, but still letting the child explore their world safely.

I used to HATE the idea of leashing your kids up. My frame of mind was "are these people THAT lazy that they need to leash their children?!"
But then my oldest daughter started walking, and every once in awhile, a leash looked like a pretty damn good idea. I still never used one, and I probably never will, but as I've grown and had children, I understand why parents would want to.

Yeah, I used to think the leash children were abused and in desperate need of liberation. That was BEFORE I had kids.
My mother-in-law bought our kids these backpacks that look like animals with tails and the kids went absolutely NUTS for them. They wanted to wear them in the house, outside, in public, to bed. Anywhere I would let them. We had three children ages 5 and under and lived overseas. We traveled through busy international airports and having the leashes was such a wonderful thing.
On a side note, I actually rarely "walked" the kids like animals on leashes. More often than not, I'd give them their own tails to hold with the promise that they'd be on their best behavior. If they started to run around or into dangerous situations (i.e., toward the street), I'd grab the end of the tail and hold it. Otherwise, they'd wear their backpacks and happily hold their own tails, all the while staying close to me and out of danger. And for the record, my kids HATED slings, wraps, being carried, etc. They wanted to walk for themselves as soon as they could.

I used to be so annoyed by leashes! That was before I had a child of my own. When Morgan was almost 2, I got one for her to try because she always wanted to walk, and we were going to Disney Land. I felt so conflicted even buying it. She loved to wear her hippo, but we only used it one time that trip, and that was for a crowded day of shopping at the beach. A lady walked by and said, "free the leash kids". I thought..."She obviously doesn't have a 22 month old that wants to walk everywhere!" She has even asked me to take her for walks around the block with it! I might take her up on it now that I'm 9 months prego, and not really up for a chase.

First of all, I'd just love to say that I love your blog. I was introduced to it through a friend and have read every back entry. It's really introduced me to a lot of ideas and new perspectives. As far as leashes go, let me preface this comment by saying that I am not a mother yet, and since I do not have that experience, I am neither strictly for nor strictly against leashes. Like everything else, I agree, it's a situational thing. However, like the dad holding the kid's stroller up instead of the kid at the zoo, this is what bothers me about leashes: when I see mom/dad with the child on a leash, talking on a cell phone, digging through racks of clothes, completely ignoring the child. I worked retail in a mall for a period of time and I would see this constantly. It bothered me as much as seeing a parent ignore their child in a stroller or in a car seat on a store cart. I think whatever your choice is as a parent, you should at least pay a little attention to your child!

I had a monkey backpack leash that my kids LOVED! Wore it around the house all the time and would play with each other holding the tail.
I found I was able to give my kids more freedom in certain situations using it. Such as in the airport when traveling with lots of family members, she could wander around to all of us easily but couldn't wander off. At the Aquarium there are a lot of crowds such that I would insist on her holding my hand, but that isn't comfortable for her.
Lastly, I found it incredibly valuable as a mom of a special needs child. My former foster daughter had severe FASD. She would take off running instantly and would leave with anyone. She was very hyperactive and didn't want to be held or hold hands even if something caught her attention. This took away a lot of our battles out in public.

i bought a puppy dog backpack leash when my daughter was 1, right before we left for a trip - i wasn't sure i would use it but it turned out to be a huge lifesaver - we ended up with a 3 hour layover and i was traveling alone with 1 carry-on, a diaper bag, a car seat AND a baby - i wore her a lot when she was a baby but as a new walker, she was having NONE of being worn
having her on a leash allowed her the freedom to "wander" and i didn't have to run after her or deal with any tantrums - we didn't get any negative comments or dirty looks - in fact, we got several comments about what a great idea the leash was and how cute she was - of course she was holding court as she walked through the airport, so i'm sure that helped - lol!
i always said i'd NEVER leash my kids but i don't know how i would have managed if i'd been without it - the only time we've needed it was when we were traveling, but i'm no longer opposed to using it if i need it in the future!

I didn't need one for my son because we live in the countryside. But if I lived in a city or used buses etc instead of the car, I would have definitely considered it!
My partner on the other hand hates them. He believes that you can just teach children not to run into traffic. Well not at that young age you can't.
We used them with my younger brother and sister growing up with success.

I see these harnesses misused all the time. You're supposed to put the strap on your wrist and hold the child's hand, not let them walk ahead of you like a dog!
I've been judged for using harnesses with my toddlers, but always by parents whose kids were out of control and running ahead of them into the parking lot. Judge me all you want, silly parents, my kid isn't about to get run over.
My kids' safety is my top priority. What these people think of me is not.

May is National Stroke Awareness Month
Jason K.
Monday, December 24, 2012
By: Jason Kosek
Caregivers & Family
To even begin to thank everyone who has helped me recover, would take a very long time. So I will specifically write about my parents.
As a 21 year old who suffered an ischemic stroke, my parents rushed me to my doctor who told me I was fine and go home and get some sleep, but my Mom knowing something was wrong grabbed my Dad and told him lets go to the hospital. It is here where I learned about what happened. Having two people show you strength was a huge help to keep myself together. I ended up spending 6 weeks in the hospital with both my parents and the rest of my family there everyday. Dad took time off work for the majority of my hospital stay making sure I never gave up even when I felt like all the cards were against me.
My Mom was always there to make sure I kept up my speech exercises while my Dad and brothers pushed me through occupational and physical therapy. Till this day my Dad will always take time off work to take me for my tests and makes sure I never forget what I have overcome, thanks to my parents I was able to complete the 5k rugged maniac obstacle course 8 months after my stroke and my first semester of law school.
This is one way I hope that I can show my appreciation to both my parents and how amazing they are and how lucky I am to be their son

The Dwightmare is finally over in Orlando, but the damaging effects of his departure are sure to loom over the Magic for years to come.
The Magic rejected countless trade offers over the past months for Howard, but it seems like Orlando settled for less than it had previously been offered. In particular, the package the Brooklyn Nets reportedly were ready to send to Orlando was much better than what the Magic were left with after today's blockbuster four-team trade.
Here's what the Magic gave up:
- Dwight Howard
- Jason Richardson
- Chris Duhon
- Earl Clark
- Three future first round draft picks
- A 2013 second round draft pick from Denver
- Aaron Afflalo
- Al Harrington
- Nikola Vucevic
- Moe Harkless
The Magic comes out of the Howard trade with three things, mediocre-to-bad players, future financial flexibility, and draft picks—and that's not nearly good enough a return for giving up the best center in the league.
As for the financial flexibility, the Magic may be hard pressed to lure big names to Orlando. There's such a concentration of power among the top teams in the NBA (Miami, Oklahoma City, Los Angeles), that it simply doesn't make sense for a superstar or aging All-Star to head to Orlando, which is undoubtedly facing a half-decade-long rebuilding process.
The Magic do have a bevy of draft picks over the next few years, but a team can never bank on drafting an eventual All-Star. Plus, the Magic are acquiring draft picks from playoff teams which are only improving from this trade.
The Magic had to get rid of Dwight, but the situation for Orlando this coming season is laughable. Orlando has a new first-time head coach in Jacque Vaughn, and the best player on the Magic roster returning for 2012-13 is Jameer Nelson. At this rate, the Bobcats' futility record is in jeopardy.
The Magic were the only team in this trade not to receive an All-Star (Philadelphia got Andrew Bynum, and Denver got Andre Iguodala). Orlando didn't want Brook Lopez and a slew of draft picks from Brooklyn in potential trade a few weeks ago, but the Magic did far worse for themselves today.

I want to thank Fotoma for the quick response to my question about my painting. I've never been there, but was struck by the beauty and simpleness of the little harbour and all the walls, to stop storms from coming in. I got the picture from a folder about travelling to Scotland. If anyone is interested in buying my painting Let me know. I loved making it. You can find me on Facebook
"I looked really carefully at Castle Ewen and "drove" along the road there on google, and I am sure the view is not there. Basically the skyline is quite different, and also the distinctive crag in the painting is about 1-2km away from the viewer. The Castle Ewen Crag is only about 100 yards or so above the loch according to google maps. So your Secret_Highlands member is, I believe, right in Stac Pollaidh.. If you could post this reply for me so I can have his opinion on one aspect though?(or anyone else who knows it up there). It is very remote, no roads near etc, but in the painting there is a fishing boat with 2 men and a rod in the foreground. How did that get there…? The view is from the East probably from Loch Lon na h-Uamha, and the gully on the right in the painting is Allt Lon na h-Uamha, and the view may be from the small peninsular on the west side of the loch. Or it could be from the loch just a bit further away (East) called Loch an Doire Dhuibh. From these lochs to Stac Pollaidh is about 2 kilometres and the skyline seems a perfect match. Is there a local club I should contact whose members could try to take a photo some time next year when on a walk up there?"
I only have a few photos of Stac Pollaidh and have attached one below (bottom) It's clearly from a completely different angle though.
Saying that painters are notorious for exaggerating and romanticising the landscapes that they paint so it's likely that the painting won't ever exactly match the reality. It'll be the artists interpretation of the place. I've seen classical paintings of Glencoe that make the 3 sisters look larger than the Alps. There are a couple of modern painting of Stac Pollaidh online that say they're from Loch Lurgainn and they look similar as in they've painted the loch to look like a quaint wee boating pond and caught the mountain gable end on making it look quite small.
Also do we know if it's an actual Landseer as if it is there's bound to be an expert in his works out there who would be able to give an opinion.
hmm. What else could it be? The Tay? The Tummel?VisitScotlandJulie said:Hello local landscape lovers and art detectives.
I have been sent another picture to identify. Phill's picture is a print and he thinks it may be the River Tweed but he would like a second opinion. Unfortunately there are no defining landmarks to make it easier. There is a wee figure doing a spot of fishing in the mid-ground.
Does anyone recognise this landscape?

Officials arrested a St. Johns County woman Thursday evening who they believe stole her grandmother's car, and a motel clerk has been charged with telling her that officials were looking for her.
The stolen car sparked an investigation by St. Johns County Sheriff's deputies Thursday morning off State Road 16 at the Quality Inn parking lot, and one person was shot during the investigation.
Deputies believe Leanna Marie Obrien, 26, of Elkton, took her grandmother's car, and they had been searching for her since Wednesday evening, according to a St. Johns County Sheriff's Office release.
She was arrested on grand theft auto charges and booked into the St. Johns County jail on bonds totaling $10,000, according to the release.
The second charge of grand theft stems from an incident that happened in December, according to the release.
Officials found Obrien near the Days Inn on State Road 16. She was walking away from a vacant building near the motel when she was arrested.
A hotel clerk told deputies that he told Obrien that U.S.Marshals were looking for her, according to the release.
The motel clerk, Wayne Scott Mort, 53, was arrested on a charge of obstruction and released this morning after posting $500 bond, according to the release.
The car was recovered Thursday before 6 a.m. Deputies discovered that the 2012 Kia Sorento was reported stolen and began to approach the car. Then they encountered a 17-year-old male and a woman.
They told them both to get on the ground, but only the woman complied, according to the Sheriff's Office.
The 17-year-old, Brandon Cheques Rich, reached into the car toward the center console, ignoring several commands from deputies.
One of the deputies shot him in the leg.
Rich was treated at a local hospital, released and booked into the county jail on a charge of grand theft auto, according to the release. The charge against Rich will be amended to dealing in stolen property. Other charges are pending against Rich as the investigation continues.
He has been detained by juvenile justice authorities.
