whats the theme's hes using
I thought it would be something cooler than that...oh well! They did a great job on the JB!!
I'm planning to make a Free matrix evasi0n inspired style wallpaper if anyone think that would be worth it. I loved the Evasi0n icon which was apart of the JB process.
it would be better if he changed it into a slide to unlock button
There's another theme for that in Cydia. Check out the recent releases.
Anthony beat me to it lol
I know it's not the place but anyone else noticed winterboard activated sound packs don't work?
He's on the right track. Now we just need it to be faster and allow more frames. 20-something frames over 3 seconds is like 1/3rd of what you'd need for smooth animations, otherwise it's a slideshow.
not dissing the evaders or their work, but seriously. could they not have come up with a better name? and then to top it off, they call their tool evasion..
I'll be the first to use their stuff, but their name is now worse than the pwn dev teams..
still though, love their work.

CHULA VISTA (CNS) - Chula Vista police brought in a SWAT team Saturday to arrest a 26-year-old San Diego man facing a long prison term for allegedly firing a gun at a liquor store more than a week ago.
Rene Lugo was arrested without incident by police detectives and SWAT members about 11:40 a.m. at 4310 Arrecife Way, said Chula Vista police Lt. Eric Thunberg.
Lugo was wanted for allegedly firing shots outside Bobar Liquor at 3189 Main St. on March 8, Thunberg said. Witness statements and evidence recovered from the scene identified Lugo as the suspect who fired shots outside the liquor store before fleeing.
"Because the suspect was a third-striker, and because of the weapons charge, a decision was made once a warrant was obtained to use SWAT," Thunberg said. "SWAT surrounded the house and called for the suspect, and he came out within a few minutes and was cooperative."
Thunberg said Lugo is being charged with suspicion of assault with a deadly weapon and possession of a firearm by a felon. He said other charges may be pending.
No one was injured in the incident.

S3E1-Izzy is devistated and lying on the floor. Last flashback-New intern mixer. George walking out with Izzy. She's putting on her coas WAIT!!! I've seen that dress before. Flashback-S2E4 Izzy and Alex first date. That is the same dress. Don't they have a budget fot mare than scrubs LOL
I noticed that too! But then I can ALWAYS recognize when Mer wears something more than once. Example: her coats, sweaters, shoulder bags, etc.
You have to remember that they were just interns making very little money so I'm sure they couldn't afford lots of clothes yet, but didn't actually have time to go shopping either since they worked so much. Therefore I think it is very realistic to see them wear the same things often.
I love the coat with the toggle buttons that she wore in S1, E8 Save Me; where she wants to know more about him so he takes her to his trailer and tells her all those things about himself and she smiles and takes his hand and they walk into the trailer (such a great scene)....is that the coat you're talking about?
this was as close as I could find, but yeah, I love that coat...

Controlled Growth of GaN Nanowires
H. Temkin and M. Holtz
Our nanowire growth begins with a ~ 2 nm thick layer of Ni deposited on substrate sapphire. Annealing at high temperatures causes the Ni to self assemble into regular nanodots. By controlling the diameter of these nanodots, we control the diameter of the nanowires. Furthermore, the growth time allows us to control the nanowire length.

A copy of the indictment was delivered to the county administrator this morning. He wasted no time in acting.
"I suspended her without pay because she was indicted by a jury of her peers," said Richard Crowdis, Dougherty County administrator. "It was an administrative decision."
The multiple felony charges resulted in the 52-year-old Pope's arrest July 12. Without spending a night in jail she has been free on $5,000 bond since then.
The crimes are alleged to have taken place while Pope was bookkeeper for the New Macedonia Baptist Church.

All the waiting,
All the longing,
All the seeking,
All the looking,
Culminates in the One who was promised.
And He's here!
You're here!
You're here!
We want to scream and clap our hands!
We want to run and shout aloud!
"You're here! We've been waiting!
And You're here!"
But that doesn't seem quite appropriate this night.
Not here in this stable.
The teenage mother motions for quiet,
And motions for us to come nearer still.
And kneeling on this hay,
We sit in silent awe of the way
You keep Your promises.
We wonder at the way
heaven has broken into earth.
This isn't what we expected …
but here, beside the manger,
we are well assured,
it is all true.
It is all true!
All the stories of old,
All the mysteries unknown,
All the ways unseen,
Are more than true.
They're here.
Hi, friend. I'm Amy. Mostly, I'm just another twenty-something trying to figure out the stuff of life. I am a nerdy seminary student who loves the smell of old books and early mornings in the library. I am an artist wanabee, a liberal to the conservative and conservative to the liberal, guilty social justice groupie, and a recovering Bible know-it-all with the unreal ability to put my foot in my mouth an astonishing number of times each day. I am a sister to eight of the most hysterical creatures ever created. Good theology, used book stores, and autumn make me giddy. I preach passionately, think deeply, and ask too many questions. I write prayers, poetry and prose. I write about preaching bad and good, gender roles in the Church, the sacraments, stupid things we do on Sunday, politics, and almost everything else that you are not supposed to discuss in polite company. I also blog at oneyellowbird.blogspot.com. Welcome to the journey.

Our room was perfect. Table and chairs outside our door with a fountain bubbling away. It was great. Having parking right in the courtyard was perfect. One less worry. The hotel was recommended by the person whose birthday we were there for. He had set aside a block of rooms. It was chosen due to others mentioning the niceness of it and it was convenient to many things.

One Design
Archambault 31
- Details
- Published on Wednesday, 12 January 2011 18:44
What a treat to have the owner of the new Archambault 31, Ann Acland, on board with us when we took Anticipation out for a sail in Mahone Bay the day before Chester Race Week started. We were also joined by the North American representative for Archambault and Aigle, Philippe Paturel, and Canadian sailor, Jeff Brock. The boat scooted along in the light breeze without effort and the tiller, mounted with a handle extension, was very responsive to the wind because of the 6'3" spade rudder. The UK sails made out of the San Francisco loft were made of carbon fibre, done with a new heat-sealed process without using glue.

I like sailing light boats. Their spirited performance lets them respond instantly to a puff or to bounce across the waves delivering quick precise feedback for the sailor. There is no sluggishness, no inertia from a heavy lead keel and no crew to buy lunch for. Small boat racing is returning to my local club in Midland, Ont., and a good part of the reason is the simplicity. Preparing the boat for a race is only a matter of minutes. The leader in this field for a long time has been the Laser, a 14-foot singlehanded daggerboard boat designed by Canadian Bruce Kirby. Manufacturing the craft has had its ups and downs but the more than 100,000 boats built are surely a milestone of success.

Sitting quietly at its mooring, the J/105 has a mean and hungry look. With low freeboard, a soaring double-spreader fractional rig, open cockpit and an ergonomic deck layout, the 105 is a highly strung thoroughbred, ready to charge out of a starting gate.
Ideal 18

- Published on Monday, 02 November 2009 18:30
Canada's Conneticuit-based yacht designer Bruce Kirby has long been known for the singlehanded Laser. Of course, he has designed numerous boats in the two decades that have passed since the famous dinghy made its debut, and one of the most recent is the Ideal 18. Although this new design is a keelboat, with a crew of two, the basic philosophy behind it is true to the little boat that made Kirby a household name -- in nautical households.

We opened our 1984 Lake Ontario sailing season in early April with a test ride on a J/22 the new, small planning keelboat from J Boats, Inc. of Newport, RI. We discovered a fun, spritely yacht packed with performance. Launched in the United States for the 1983 season, the J/22 has been an instant success, with more than 360 boats sold south of the border in less than a year.

October 13:
A resident in the 1300 block of Seaside Drive complained that a neighbor�s car was parked on a city street and was too close to an intersection. An officer spoke to the owner of the vehicle. The owner moved the vehicle and thereby resolved the problem.
A resident observed three children removing a sheet of plywood from an open building site in the 1400 block of D Street. The children carried the board to an unknown location and were not located. The incident was documented.
A Whatcom County Sheriff�s Office sergeant called the Blaine police to confirm a Blaine warrant for a man who was booked into jail on an unrelated matter. A Blaine officer confirmed the warrant and faxed it to the jail.
Officer observed a vehicle commit a traffic infraction in the 400 block of Peace Portal Drive. Upon stopping the vehicle, it was discovered that a fight had occurred inside of a local drinking establishment.

Officers contacted the victim, who refused to cooperate in any type of investigation and refused to pursue charges against the person who allegedly assaulted him. The victim was found to have five warrants for his arrest, but due to jail restrictions he was not arrested.
Whatcom County Sheriff�s Office asked Blaine officers for mutual aid in the 3100 block of Haynie Road. They were responding to a fight in progress where two males were beating up a third. Officers arrived and detained the three for the deputy. It turns out they were friends and everything was fine.

Officers responded to a call of a possible suicide attempt in the 1600 block of Runge Road. Upon arriving, it was found that a boyfriend and girlfriend had just had a disagreement and had managed to work it out.

After confirming that everyone was okay, and no one was in danger of hurting themselves or anyone else, officers left.
Complainant reported a teenage female had been threatening to kill her because she is dating her ex-boyfriend. Case under investigation.
Officers responded to a single party motor vehicle collision in the 4400 block of Blaine Street and discovered an intoxicated juvenile who admitted to drinking and driving.

The young man was cited to Blaine municipal court and released to his father.
A U.S. customs inspector contacted a level 3 (highest level) registered sex offender who was denied entry into Canada because of his criminal record. The offender was traveling from Eugene, Oregon without notification to his parole officer and/or the offender registration officer. A Blaine officer helped document the event and referred the reports to the proper authorities in Oregon for review.
Hay there officer! A passerby called to report what he thought were drugs laying near the door of a closed business in the 200 block of D Street. Officers investigated and found a stash... of hay.
A resident reported someone entered a building and removed a $39 prescription medication of Ritilan from her locker. The incident is under investigation.
A citizen reported receiving harassing phone calls and visits at work from her estranged husband. She stated her intent to obtain an anti-harassment order and requested extra patrol in the area of her work in the meantime.
When a Canadian citizen applied to enter the U.S. from Canada, U.S. immigration officers found he was in possession of a credit card which belonged to someone else and had been reported as lost.

The person possessing it claimed he had once worked for the credit card�s owner and had forgotten to return it.

Praia da Luz is located on Portugal's beautiful Algarve coastline, and is not to be confused with the Costa de la Luz in Spain. The low rise development has meant that views over the coast are not obstructed, and hours can be spent watching the sea from a rental property in Praia da Luz.
The traditional fishing village of Luz also has a large beach, but is also steeped in history. The remains of the Roman villa of Luz provides a fascinating insight into Roman life, and the Nossa Senhora fort allows you to eat fantastic traditional food in the restaurant whilst contemplating the rough history of the Algarve and of Portugal.
Lagos is just 10 minutes west of Praia da Luz, and is easily accessible from Praia da Luz properties. It is a large historic town with a plethora of shops, bars and restaurants, as well as an exclusive marina offering cruises and excursions.
The beach of Praia da Luz is a gently sloping soft sandy beach stretching away from the famous black volcanic rock of Rocha Negra, and backed by staggering multi-coloured cliffs of pink, green and orange sandstone. It is a blue flag beach with full time lifeguards and all the water sports imaginable on offer. If the Atlantic swells are hitting the beach, there is a chance to grab your surfboard for an exhilarating afternoon!
Golfing holidays to Praia da Luz are increasingly popular as there are 4 golf courses within a short distance of the beach and Praia da Luz properties.
Praia da Luz is oriented towards family holidays, and the water park, dolphinarium, cinema and riding stables mean that there is plenty to entertain children and grown ups alike! The scuba diving, windsurfing and sailing facilities are exceptional, and there is plenty of instruction to be had for those who are not entirely confident!
Summer temperatures reach a blistering 40°C, so Praia da Luz holiday villas often have pools to cool down in. However, winter temperatures rarely dip below 10°C, so taking a rental property in Praia da Luz proves a good choice year round, as the facilities stay open.
Praia da Luz is within an hours drive from Faro Airport (FAO), and there is a magnitude of providers offering cheap flights from most UK airports. For cheap flights to Praia da Luz, it is worth shopping around.

With the Iowa caucus just weeks away, the latest poll from Bloomberg News shows the race for the GOP nomination for President is a four-man race and a statistical dead heat.
Bloomberg's latest numbers:
- Herman Cain — 20 percent;
- Ron Paul — 19 percent;
- Mitt Romney — 18 percent;
- Newt Gingrich — 17 percent.
Because the differences fall within the poll's margin of error, the poll is considered an even split.
However, support for all the candidates is shallow at best. Some 60 percent of those polls say their choice could change, given more information. Ron Paul's support is the most solid while Cain's is the weakest.
Says Ann Selzer, president of Selzer & Co., the polling firm for Bloomberg:
In Iowa, it's long been a two-person race between Romney and someone else. It is now a four- person race between Romney and three someone elses.
4 Responses to "Bloomberg: Iowa is a four-man race"
This commentary may be the most horrible news item possible. Many of us believe that Ron Paul has the right idea but can't seem to hold back on what is possible and what is preferable.
America is too far in the hole for any quick fix to help. It puts us in a pickle to even discuss what has happened to America. We have allowed the government to get over-bloated with pork and this baby will never get born without s severe diet of common sense before birth.
I feel sorry for fiscal conservatives who have sat back and watched our freedoms and liberties to get so packed with fat that many of us want out next year. Dr. Paul is the right one for the job, but it will take time to prepare the voters to see how unclear this situation has become.
The GOP still has no plans for individual freedoms and it is a sacrifice I will not make.
So what if…just what if Ron Paul wins the Iowa caucus?
How will these running dog, MSM movers and shakers try to derail him in New Hampshire?
Methinks they'll find themselves between a rock and hard place without exposing themselves for what they really are; I.E., agent provocateurs for their globlisist, NWO corpo-fascist controllers…no?

Nico di Angelo
|This article describes its subject in a mostly in-universe style. This means that it is about something made up (in a book, or a film, for instance), and makes it seem real. (October 2009)
|Nico di Angelo
|Percy Jackson & the Olympians, The Heroes of Olympus character
|First appearance
|The Titan's Curse
|Last appearance
|The House of Hades
|Created by
|Rick Riordan
|King of Ghosts, Lord, Master (by the dead)
|Hades (father)
Maria di Angelo (mother, deceased)
Bianca di Angelo (sister, deceased)
Hazel Levesque (half-sister)
|Italian, Greek
Nico di Angelo is a fictional character in Rick Riordan's Percy Jackson & The Olympians and The Heroes of Olympus series. In the series, he is the demigod son of Hades and mortal Maria di Angelo. As such, Nico has extraordinary powers of necrokinesis and the power to command the dead; he is a son of one of the "Big Three" Greek gods, the other two being Hades' brothers Poseidon and Zeus. Nico is chronologically over seventy years old as a result of his prolonged stay in the Lotus Casino in Las Vegas, an enchanted hotel where one does not age and time does not pass at its normal pace. He and his sister, Bianca di Angelo were stuck in the Lotus Casino, but were rescued by a man in a suit after spending a time in the Casino.
Description[change | change source]
Nico is said to have shaggy, messy black hair, olive-like skin and dark brown eyes. He usually has on dark clothing and he is also mentioned on several occasions to be wearing an aviator's jacket. By the end of The Battle of the Labyrinth, he also wears a skull ring.[1]
In The Titan's Curse, Nico is a happy kid who loves a trading card game called Mythomagic. However, since his sister's death in The Titan's Curse at the hands of a defective Talos, he has a hateful resentment toward Percy. He later thinks Mythomagic is a stupid game, and burns all his cards in a fire. He becomes more sullen and solitary, saying that "only the dead respect him... and only out of fear". He believes that he will never be accepted with the living, but forgives Percy after Bianca tells him that it wasn't Percy's fault that she died. He also accepts the small figurine of Hades that Bianca wanted him to have before she died in The Titan's Curse. In the fifth book, he brings Percy to his father to get information that proves to be the least his father can give, and his father ends up putting Percy in a dungeon. However, Nico rescues Percy from the dungeon and takes him to the River Styx where Percy becomes almost invincible. In the end of The Last Olympian, Nico convinces his father, Hades, to help the other gods fight in the war against the Lord of Time, Kronos, and his army, and plays a major role in the victory. The relationship between Percy and Nico becomes close for they both might have been the child of the Great Prophecy.
Nico di Angelo's fatal flaw is holding grudges, as Bianca tells him. In his case, it can lead to not wanting help or not asking to be saved in deadly situations because he does not like someone. Examples are his not wanting to be helped by Percy, even when Geryon was going to sell him to the Titans and not wanting to go back in the Labyrinth with them. Bianca shares this with him, as she also had the same fatal flaw in life, although this did not lead to her death. Bianca also says that holding grudges is the demigods of Hades' fatal flaw. In the fifth book, Nico tells his father, Hades, that he is holding a grudge that could end up killing the Olympians and the campers.
In the The House of Hades, Nico is forced by Cupid to reveal that he had a crush on Percy Jackson. Even if he later says that he doesn't feel that way anymore and pretended to be young and impressionable.
In the books[change | change source]
The Titan's Curse[change | change source]
Nico is ten years old and first appears with his sister in a military school called Westover Hall in Bar Harbor, Maine. They are sought out by Grover Underwood, the satyr, who believes them to be two very powerful unknown half-bloods. Nico seems to be very interested in Mythomagic, a game about Greek mythology. When his sister Bianca accepts Artemis's proposal to become a Hunter, Nico gets angry at her for "abandoning" him. Percy finds Nico eavesdropping on Bianca and Zöe Nightshade (one of the Hunters of Artemis, a daughter of Atlas), and Nico successfully convinces Percy to promise to keep his sister safe. He does not appear again until the end of the book, where Percy explains to him that Bianca died to save the others on the quest. He also creates a large crack in the ground to swallow up the skeletons that were chasing Percy. He immediately turns on Percy, telling him he hates him, and reminds him of the oath he took to keep Bianca safe. Nico is last seen running into the woods at night, after screaming at Percy.[2]
The Battle of The Labyrinth[change | change source]
Nico is eleven years old in this book. He is first seen talking with an unknown ghost who is trying to tell Nico how to resurrect his sister's dead body when Percy is sent a collect Iris Message sent by Bianca di Angelo, Nico's sister. It is revealed in this book that Nico can summon the dead. Nico is then seen when Percy, Annabeth, Grover, and Tyson visit Triple G Ranch, where Percy then saves Nico from being sent to the Titans. Nico, still angry at Percy, finally understands that it was Bianca's choice to go into the Talos robot, and he shouldn't be mad at Percy. The others leave Nico at the Ranch, where he supposedly meets King Minos (in ghost form) again, who convinces him to go back into the Labyrinth.
He is next seen being dragged into Daedalus' workshop by one empousa and two Laistrygonians, in chains, after being tricked by King Minos. He escapes with Percy, Annabeth, and Rachel Elizabeth Dare, who have to go back into the Labyrinth to find Grover and Tyson, who had stayed behind to look for Pan, god of the Wild. Along the way, they see Kronos in the form of Luke, and Nico, in a desperate attempt to save everyone, shows his true powers, and makes it known to Kronos that he is a son of Hades. They meet Pan, who gives everyone except for Nico a cryptic future reading and then vanishes. After they get out of the Labyrinth, a full-fledged battle erupts between the Titans and Camp Half-Blood, in which Nico summons a dozen undead soldiers to fight the dracanae, passing out in the process. He is revived with nectar and ambrosia, and he states that summoning that many soldiers required a lot of energy. After the campfire, he is seen talking with the ghost of his sister Bianca. He then tells Percy, who came out to see what was going on, that he did not belong at camp, but instead in the Underworld, and would train there instead. He also goes to search for his mother, who paid for him and Bianca to stay at the school in the beginning of The Titan's Curse. He is last seen on Percy's apartment fire escape giving Percy news on Daedalus and a way to beat Luke for good. Before mentioning it, Nico is distracted by Percy's blue birthday cake, and Percy invites him in to talk.[1]
The Last Olympian[change | change source]
Nico is twelve years old in this book. His theory to gain an edge over the Titans is to make Percy invincible by having him bathe in the River Styx, similar to the myth of Achilles. It is shown that after Bianca died, Hades feels he has no competent child, repeatedly mentioning that Bianca could do a better job at fulfilling their father's demands. It is also revealed that the lawyer who removed the children from the Lotus Casino was Hades' lead fury, Alecto, in disguise.
The Lost Hero[change | change source]
Although he does not appear in the book, he is mentioned by Annabeth to be searching for Percy.
Powers and abilities[change | change source]
General[change | change source]
Nico's sword is made of Stygian Iron, which will kill monsters, and harm mortals. The metal, when being forged, is cooled in the River Styx, making it indestructible. It is implied that only people of the underworld are to use a Stygian iron weapon. The sword helps him channel his power to control and summon the dead, along with draining an enemy's soul to reinforce his sword's power. He can also use it to create fissures in the ground, trapping anyone unlucky to get caught in the underworld, like he did to Minos.
- Nico has ADHD like other half-bloods, which allows him a heightened sense of awareness in combat.
- As with all other half-bloods, Nico is dyslexic because his brain has been "hard-wired" for Ancient Greek.
- Nico, being a son of Hades, is one of the most powerful demigods alive.
- He can slay monsters with little effort.
Necrokinetic abilities[change | change source]
- Nico can put humans and skeletons to sleep by pointing at them, and it may work with other things, too.
- He shares his sister's ability to kill creatures of the Underworld.
- Nico has dominion over the dead, allowing him the title The Ghost King.
- Nico can summon and communicate with the dead.
- He can sense when a mortal or half-blood has died through a buzzing in his ears.
- He can tell if someone he loves is in the Underworld and if they are being judged.
- Nico can create flaming fissures of hellfire that then close, swallowing up living or dead creatures and immediately trapping them in the Underworld.
- Nico is shown to be able to release a soul into the underworld, as he did with Daedalus.
Umbrakinetic abilities[change | change source]
- Nico can shadow-travel, a form of travel that uses shadows that enables him to teleport to different places although this ability tires him.
- Nico can bend shadows around him to conceal himself.
- He can solidify shadows to attack.
- He can control dark energy like Hades but to a much weaker extent.
- He can assumable shadow travel others by force.
Geokinetic abilities[change | change source]
- Nico can call forth Stygian iron from the Underworld.
- He can manipulate rocks, making them deadly.
- Nico can make large rocks that block entrances.
- He can cause immensely powerful tremors.
- He can control the dark obsidian souls of the underworld.
- He can cause numerous volcanic eruptions, landslides, small earthquakes and can cause shockwaves through the ground. These powers weaken him.

Gov. Pat McCrory announced Sunday that the Office of State Budget and Management has released hundreds of thousands of dollars in grant money funded by a controversial Raleigh nonprofit.
Last month, state legislators defunded the North Carolina Rural Economic Development Center after an audit found the nonprofit failed to provide proper oversight of millions in grants while providing excessive payments to its president, Billy Ray Hall.
Hall resigned under pressure, yet his severance package amounted to more than $240,000. The Rural Center board froze Hall's severance last week.
State Auditor Beth Wood said reporting requirements on grants issued by the center were not diligently enforced and that job creation claims on five grants could not be verified.
Sunday, the OSBM announced that it had determined 14 grants are in compliance with state laws and rules and will be released this month.
The grants total $734,344.18, and the funds released are the first of those due in August. The bulk of the funds goes to Person County, which will receive a grant for $500,000.
"We wanted to make sure that they got their money on time, so they could do the good projects for rural North Carolina that they needed to do in their local area," McCrory's communications chief, Kim Genardo, said.
On July 29, the Rural Center Board voted to form a special committee of five members of the board, including appointed and elected members, to determine how the center should move forward. The committee will also meet with the appropriate governmental officials to negotiate and approve a plan to transfer the state funds to the appropriate state governmental agencies.
The committee is expected to make a recommendation to the full board whether the center should begin the process of dissolution at next month's board meeting.
Genardo said McCrory expects his commerce secretary and five-member committee to find a way forward for the Rural Center by the end of the month.

NASHVILLE, TN (AP) - The Tennessee Highway Patrol says traffic fatalities on state roadways have declined nearly 14% for the first six months of 2013, compared with the same period last year.
THP Colonel Tracy Trott said this week that 436 people died in traffic crashes in Tennessee from Jan. 1 through June 30.
He said that's 70 fewer than the 506 vehicular fatalities that occurred during the same dates in 2012.
Trott also noted a 10.7% decline in alcohol-related crashes investigated by the THP.
Troopers worked 975 impaired driving accidents from Jan. 1 through June 30, a drop from the 1,092 crashes involving alcohol during the same time frame the previous year.

WAYNESBORO, Va. (AP) — The remains of a Virginia woman who disappeared in 2002 are being returned to her family in the Philippines.
Media outlets report that the Waynesboro Police Foundation has exceeded its goal to raise $6,000 to send 23-year-old Karen Santillan Tait's remains to the Philippines for burial.
Any leftover money will be used to set up an education fund for Tait's teenage daughter. The foundation says the daughter is living with relatives elsewhere in the U.S.
'Tait's body was found in 2002 in the Greenbrier State Forest in West Virginia. She wasn't listed as missing until 2011 and her body wasn't identified until fall 2012.
The Waynesboro woman's husband, 53-year-old Thomas Neal Tait, pleaded guilty in February to second-degree murder in West Virginia. He's serving a 30-year sentence.

On Tuesday, reports broke across the baseball world that the Toronto Blue Jays and Miami Marlins had agreed to a 12-player deal.
In the trade, the Jays are reported to have picked up shortstop Jose Reyes, left-hander Mark Buehrle, right-hander Josh Johnson, infielder Emilio Bonifacio and catcher John Buck.
In exchange, shortstops Yunel Escobar and Adeiny Hechavarria, as well as starter Henderson Alvarez, catcher Jeff Mathis, pitching prospect Justin Nicolino, outfield prospect Jake Marisnick and minor league right-hander Anthony DeSclafani will all be heading to South Beach.
Immediately following the report and also on Wednesday, reaction was passionate and varied in columns, on Twitter and across sports radio and television.
On Twitter, the reaction from members of the Toronto Blue Jays was that of tempered excitement.
"Can't wait to hear the magic words....ITS OFFICIAL!!!," reliever Casey Janssen posted on his Twitter account, @CaseyJanssen.
Slugger Jose Bautista was also excited to hear the news.
"Its a good day to be a bluejay!," Bautista posted on @JoeyBats19.
Starter Ricky Romero was also very happy at the possibility of the talent that could be joining his ranks with the Blue Jays.
"Watcha think Toronto?! I'm still waiting for those "It's Official" words. But I am beyond excited for the city, fans and the team," Romero posted on his account, @RickyRo24.
Across the league, baseball experts were also weighing in on the possibilities created by the mega-deal.
ESPN MLB insider Buster Olney joined TSN's Off The Record with Michael Landsberg to break down the deal from a purely baseball perspective.
"The Blue Jays, in the eyes of rival executives, didn't give up a lot of talent to get Jose Reyes, Mark Buehrle and Josh Johnson," said Olney. "Everyone I've talked to today says there is no question this trade makes the Blue Jays better.
"There were a lot of questions asked about if Jose Reyes will be able to stay healthy with his history of leg injuries while playing on an artificial surface," Olney continued. "Will Josh Johnson bounce back from what was a very mediocre season and will Mark Buehrle, who is a fly ball pitcher, be able to succeed in that ball park pitching in a tougher division.
"I would say the perception around baseball is that it's a qualified success for the Blue Jays."
Former MLB pitcher Mitch Williams, who is now an analyst for the MLB Network, was also a guest on Off The Record and believes this elevates the Jays from a .500 team to a playoff possibility.
"They're a contender in the East. I look at this trade and I look at the arms they are getting back and a shortstop who is an absolute nightmare for pitchers on the base paths in Reyes. They also get speed in Bonifacio that can play a bunch of positions and they get Buck back as a catcher. This is a huge deal for the Blue Jays."
Former MLB infielder Aaron Boone, who now works for ESPN, believes the Toronto fan base should be excited by the deal.
"This to me all of a sudden makes them a real player in the East, maybe even the favourite. The Blue Jays really upped the ante as far as their organization is concerned, especially if they are able to stabilize their bullpen."
TSN baseball analyst Dan Shulman also commented on the trade via Twitter.
"Not sure I would proclaim #jays as favorites in AL East yet, but if Johnson stays healthy, and Reyes and Buehrle can have their typical…season, the deal helps them immensely. Still need a Romero bounce back, a healthy Bautista and more from Rasmus."
Not everyone was happy about the deal. Two members of the Miami Marlins were less than pleased as they updated their verified twitter accounts.
Marlins outfielder Giancarlo Stanton reacted negatively while the rumours of the names being dealt started to become public.
"Alright, I'm pissed off!!! Plain & Simple," Stanton tweeted from his account, @Giancarlo818.
While pitcher Ricky Nolasco (@RNolasco47) simply tweeted "Huh?......."

Anh-Chi is trying to conceive her first child with her husband. He is in the U.S. Air Force and their family is scheduled to move out of state at the end of this year for 10 years. She had her IUD removed in December 2008 and the doctors have given her two months before she will be fertile. Anh-Chi wants to have her baby while she is still in Sacramento close to her family and friends, but she is very afraid that it won't happen as planned. She wants their family and friends to be a part of their child's life if only at the very beginning. The timing of her pregnancy is very important to her.
The Journey Comes to an End!
Trying to conceive can be the most joyful and sometimes heartbreaking experience a woman will ever go through. When we were young, we thought it was easy: have sex ... get pregnant.
I Will No Longer 'TRY'
Just several days ago, I got my period. Yes, right before I was about to take my pregnancy test. I'm quite certain at this point that I will no longer "try."
Still Didn't Get My Period
It's the 1st of the month, and I still didn't get my period. What's odd is that my pregnancy test shows up as negative.
Our Anniversary
My husband and I celebrated our anniversary this past weekend. We got married in December 2007, but had our wedding in June 2008. So we celebrate twice a year ... but of course, our wedding date holds more sentimental value.
Moving to the East Coast
My husband and I just found out we're moving to Dover, Delaware, in 6 months ... I'm not sure how to take this, since we didn't expect to relocate so soon!
Having a Large Family
I have only 2 more days left in Vietnam, and I'm so sad to leave this soon. I've grown incredibly close to my in-laws, and feel like I've known them forever. As an only child, I've gotten used to being on my own and developing my independence.
Clarification of Pregnancy Rumor
Although I shouldn't care what people say, I've always been the type to clarify myself. So to set things straight, I did NOT start the rumor that I'm pregnant just to make my mother-in-law happy.
Vietnam Has Been Quite Eventful
My mother-in-law's entire life has been devoted to providing for her family and community in Vietnam, so she hopes to pass some of that altruistic spirit onto me.
I'm NOT Pregnant!
My husband's family thinks I'm pregnant, but it's day two of my period, so I'm definitely not pregnant.
I Need to Get Pregnant Next Month!
The first day my husband and I arrived in Vietnam, we visited my mother-in-law in the hospital. Luckily, she was discharged from the hospital that very day.
I Told Her I'm Pregnant -- But Am I?
Right now, I have no idea what to expect ... whether or not I'm pregnant (even though my heart tells me I am and I've already told my mother-in-law that I AM!), how much longer my mother-in-law will survive, and what I'll gain from this trip.
I'm Tired of Peeing on Sticks!
It's day 5 of testing, and still no positive result. I could easily believe that I'm not pregnant, but I still have hope.
I Have to Leave for VietnamMy husband and I are packing our bags to leave for our trip to Vietnam. Right now, it still hasn't sunk in that I'm visiting my birthplace.
I Thought I Would Never Have Kids
Conception Diaries' Anh-Chi has been testing every single morning in the hopes of an LH surge, a.k.a., ovulation. Has the day finally come?
I Did My Five-Day Early Pregnancy Test ...
I did my 5-day Early Pregnancy Test this morning, and lo and behold, it came out negative. Negative?! How could that be?!
Anh-Chi: My Thoughts This Memorial Day
Holidays have become so ingrained in our culture that sometimes we forget to evaluate their significance.
I Used to Feel Utterly Lost
I have wonderful news! My friend/colleague recently got pregnant ... and she used the First Response ovulation and pregnancy tests!!!
Is Anh-Chi On the Road to Ovulation?Anh-Chi's husband's trip gets canceled and she might be ovulating soon -- let's see if it's time for her to conceive!

GAME PREVIEW (Friday, October 14) ADIRONDACK vs
October 13, 2011
(1-0-0) vs. Bridgeport Sound Tigers (1-1-0)
Glens Falls Civic Center,
Friday, October 14, 7:00 p.m.
Adirondack Phantoms (Philadelphia Flyers)
Bridgeport Sound Tigers (New York Islanders)
Promotion: $2 dollar draft beers from
How the Phantoms Come In
After six days off, the Phantoms head into a weekend
slate of games which will see Adirondack play its
first (of 12) three-in-three sets of the season.
The first game will be Friday against Bridgeport
at the Glens Falls Civic Center, where the Phantoms
have won eight straight games dating back to last
season, and 11-of-13 overall.
After one week of AHL action, the Phantoms are
the only unbeaten team in the newly-formed Northeast
Division. Along with the Phantoms, the division
features the Connecticut Whale, Albany Devils, Springfield
Falcons and tonight's opponents, the Bridgeport
Sound Tigers.
Last Week
After falling behind 3-1 in the second period
of their Opening Nigh tilt with Connecticut, the
Phantoms exploded for the game's final five
goals, winning 6-3. Adirondack's comeback
was paced by the help of six different goal scorers,
while 11 different Phantoms registered points. It
was the second time in team history that the Adirondack
Phantoms had six different players score goals in
a game, with the first coming during the team's
9-5 win over the Albany Devils on April 1, 2011.
The Opening Night scoring included the first professional
points of Garrett Roe (2a) and Blake Kessel (1a),
as well as multi-point efforts from Roe, Denis Hamel(
1g, 2a), Mike Testwuide (1g, 1a), Oskars Bartulis
(1g, 1a) and Brayden Schenn (2a). Schenn, a former
fifth-overall draft selection of the Los Angeles
Kings, flashed his skills all night and showed the
fans of Glens Falls why he is regarded as one of
the top prospects in hockey. Schenn was acquired
by the Flyers (along with Wayne Simmonds) from Los
Angeles last summer in the deal that sent Mike Richards
and Rob Bordson to Tinsletown.
Oskars Bartulis scored the first Phantoms goal
of the season at 9:21 of the first period, and assisted
on an Eric Wellwood goal in the third period. A
background which includes 66 NHL games with the
Flyers, Bartulis' goal was his first Phantoms
goal since October 23, 2009, when he tallied against
the Hartford Wolf Pack (the forerunner of the Connecticut
Whale) at the Glens Falls Civic Center.
The goal scorers in the come-from-behind effort
included Oskars Bartulis, Denis Hamel, Kevin Marshall,
Luke Pither, Eric Wellwood and Mike Testwuide.
After allowing three goals in the first 21 minutes
of the game on Saturday, Michael Leighton found
his form and shut down the Whale for most of the
game's final two periods. Leighton finished
the game (the 400th of his pro career) with 24 total
saves, with 18 of his stops coming in the final
two periods. Leighton, a 10th-year pro, was a key
figure in the Phantoms' second-half resurgence
last season, when he tied a team record for save
percentage (.926). The native of Petrolia, Ontario
has more AHL shutouts (34) than any goalie in the
modern era (since 1975), and he ranks sixth overall
in league history.
About the Bridgeport Sound Tigers
After not facing each other in the 2010-11 season,
the Phantoms and the AHL affiliate of the New York
Islanders will do battle six times this season,
including the two matchups this weekend. The teams
will play their second game of the weekend on Sunday
in Bridgeport, with the Phantoms traveling to play
in Syracuse on Saturday night, in between. The Phantoms
and Sound Tigers haven't played each other
since the 2009-10 season, when Adirondack swept
a four-game season series.
Offensively, Justin DiBenedetto possesses arguably
the highest level of offensive talent on the Sound
Tigers. After finishing second on Bridgeport with
19 goals last year, DiBenedetto already has three
goals in 2011-12, as he netted a hat trick in Bridgeport's
win over Albany last Sunday.
Defensively, two Sound Tigers to keep an eye on
are Calvin de Haan and Ty Wishart. Although he hasn't
contributed yet offensively this season, de Haan
is considered one of the NHL's brightest puck-moving
defensive prospects. The former New York Islander
first-round draft selection accumulated 135 points
(19g, 116a) over the past three seasons with the
Ontario Hockey League's Oshawa Generals, and
he represented Canada in the World Junior Championships.
Wishart, a former first-round draft choice of
the San Jose Sharks, provides Bridgeport with bulk
on the blue line. The 6-foot-4, 220-pound defenseman
started last season with the Norfolk Admirals, before
arriving in Bridgeport after the New York Islanders
acquired him in exchange for goalie Dwayne Roloson
on New Year's Day. Roloson would go on to
carry Norfolk's parent team, the Tampa Bay
Lightning, to Game 7 of the Eastern Conference Finals
in the Stanley Cup Playoffs.
Bridgeport's goaltending duties are split
between Anders Nilsson and Kevin Poulin. Neither
of the two have ever played a game against the Phantoms.
Affiliate of Brotherly Love
The Phantoms current roster features Eric Wellwood,
Blake Kessel, Tye McGinn and Brayden Schenn, all
of whom have older brothers on NHL rosters.
Blake Kessel's older brother, Phil, and
Brayden Schenn's older brother, Luke, both
skate for the Toronto Maple Leafs. Phil Kessel has
scored 30 or more goals in each of the last three
seasons and also recorded a hat trick last Saturday
while Blake notched his first professional point
with Adirondack. Phil has 128 career goals with
the Boston Bruins and Toronto Maple Leafs entering
this season.
Luke Schenn was picked fifth overall in the NHL
Entry Draft in 2008 and then Brayden was grabbed
fifth overall exactly one year later by Los Angeles.
Luke is in his fourth season as a defenseman with
Tye McGinn's brother Jamie plays for San Jose.
Jaime has been a part of the Sharks organization
since 2006-07. On October 3, 2009 he scored the
game-winning goal in the first ever Adirondack Phantoms
game at the Glens Falls Civic Center as a member
of the visiting Worcester Sharks.
Eric Wellwood's brother, Kyle, is part of
the newly-formed Winnipeg Jets. He has also played
for the San Jose Sharks, Toronto Maple Leafs and
Vancouver Canucks. Kyle has played in 373 NHL games
entering this season scoring 68 goals and 105 assists
for 173 points. He scored a career high 18 goals
with Vancouver in 2008-09.
Denis Hamel on the Rise
Returning Phantoms leading scorer Denis Hamel
continues to rise up the all-time AHL ranks in goals,
points and total games played. Last Saturday on
Opening Night, he scored his 316th career AHL goal
putting him in a tie for 15th all-time in AHL history
with current Washington Capitals Head Coach Bruce
Boudreau. The scoring machine is creeping up on
14th place Fred Thurier (319 goals, 1937-52), 13th
place Bruce Cline, (321 goals, 1955-68) and Adirondack
Red Wings great and Adirondack Hockey Hall of Famer
Glenn Merkosky who is 12th all-time with 325 goals
(1980-91). "The Hammer" is tied for
42nd all-time in total points with 606. He is 34th
in games played with 777, just seven games ahead
of veteran teammate Dan Jancevski. Hamel has also
played in 192 games in the NHL giving a total of
969 professional games and an opportunity to reach
the 1,000 game milestone by mid-season.
Head Coach Joe Paterson
Joe Paterson returns for his second season as
head coach of the Adirondack Phantoms. The Glen
Lake resident assumed the reigns midway through
2010-11 and has guided the team to a 26-16-8 mark
since December 20, 2010. As a player, Paterson played
in 293 NHL games between the Detroit Red Wings,
Los Angeles Kings, New York Rangers and Philadelphia
Flyers. In the AHL, Paterson was a left wing on
the Adirondack Red Wings from 1981-84, and scored
52 goals and 122 points in 169-career games. He
also served as an assistant coach of the Adirondack
Red Wings for three seasons from 1992-94, under
Newell Brown. He played under Doug McKay, Bill Mahoney
and Bill Dineen while with the Red Wings. His best
season with Adirondack as a player was in 1981-82,
when he scored 22 goals and 28 assists, for 50 points,
in 74 games.

SPOKANE, Wash.--A thief was caught on camera Tuesday night breaking into a popular Mexican restaurant in North Spokane.
The thief took a big piece of brick and threw it through the window of DeLeon's.
"We actually found this rock right under a pile of glass and he threw right through the window," said Dwight DeLeon, Assistant Manager.
In the past year and a half, DeLeon's has been broken into three times along with other crimes.
"Our trucks have been tagged, our building's been tagged, they've siphoned our gas a couple of weeks ago," said DeLeon.
The crook was in and out of the restaurant in about one minute. He only took a few cartons of cigarettes.
Despite the nuisance of the crimes, DeLeon said his loyal customers are still coming.
"They've been giving us support all day and they've said they'd keep their eyes open," said DeLeon.
If you know anything about the break in you are asked to call Crime Check. The number is 456-2233. The owner of DeLeon's said if you can help him solve any of the crimes he will give you free tacos for a year.

New York • Throughout 48 minutes of one-sided basketball, a question hung over the Jazz in Madison Square Garden like stale metropolitan smog.
Is there a draft in here?
Storylines Knicks 113, Jazz 84The Jazz fall to 1-7 since Feb. 23 and 0-4 on the East Coast road trip.
» After the Jazz had a five-game edge on the Lakers on Feb. 22, the teams are now tied for eighth in the Western Conference.
|Join the Discussion
|Post a Comment
Just the one scheduled for June 27 at the World's Most Famous Arena. At this rate, the Utah Jazz will have only that to look forward to once the regular season ends in mid-April.
They suffered their second-worst loss of the season, a 113-84 defeat to the Knicks, and fell to 0-4 on this East Coast road trip. Suddenly, it's tough to see the Jazz as anything other than in a tailspin.
And headed for the lottery.
"Bad road trip for us," Gordon Hayward said. "Couldn't really afford to do this, so we just made it that much tougher on ourselves."
The Jazz are falling faster than a Steve Novak 3-pointer.
As recently as the morning of Feb. 22, the Jazz had a five-game lead over the surging Lakers in the Western Conference playoff chase. After the Jazz lost for the seventh time in eight games on Saturday, the teams are tied for eighth in the West. By virtue of beating the Lakers twice this season, the Jazz own the tiebreaker.
"You still got to try to be positive," Hayward said. "We've got the spot, and still have plenty of games where we can get these ones back."
But at this point, the Jazz are looking more and more like the guy who gets a date, only to have the woman cancel at the last minute because, well, the guy's really not that great.
The Jazz were last swept on a four-game road trip in January 2011, days before Jerry Sloan resigned and Deron Williams was deported to the Eastern Conference.
While that swing was a harbinger of impending doom, this one didn't start that way. An overtime loss to Milwaukee hurt, but was encouraging. The last-second layup that missed in Cleveland was bad luck. Friday against the Bulls, when the two-point lead with six seconds left wasn't enough, was a killer.
But Saturday against the Knicks, the accumulation of all the previous aches and pains, summed it up.
"It's a crucial time of the season, man," Marvin Williams said. "We're at a serious spot right now."
Against the Knicks, the Jazz hoped to exorcise some demons. New York was without Carmelo Anthony and Amare Stoudemire, both sidelined with knee injuries.
And while the Jazz were without Paul Millsap, early on, it didn't look like it would matter. Mo Williams, DeMarre Carroll and Randy Foye all made 3-pointers in the opening minutes and the Jazz led 11-4 before the Knicks ran off 15 straight points. When Utah rallied to cut the Knicks' lead to 31-19, New York went on an 18-2 run.
Things got out of hand quicker than a Novak 3-pointer.
OK, so what of those 3s?
The Knicks forward made five, including three during the slayer of a run that had the Jazz down 55-38 by halftime. Novak scored 20 points for the Knicks, while J.R. Smith led all scorers with 24.
"If it wasn't a 3," Marvin Williams said, "they were getting two free throws, and that's very tough to stop."
In basketball, you can either stop it or you can match it, and the Jazz did neither. They shot just 38.5 percent from the field, while the Knicks made more than half of their field goals.Next Page >

Crochet Saved My Life is a non-fiction book that explores the potential benefits of crochet for healing through a range of mental and physical health conditions.
Kathy, I have not read the book, I want to and will. Crochet, as you know, has changed my life and continues to do so. I am disabled and getting older. It is delightful for me to get these
arthritic hands going to make things for my grandchildren and their kids as well. It takes me a little longer than it used to, but when you see big blue eyes widen with joy over a bunny or a huge thank you for an afghan, that's all warm and fuzzy inside.
@PWestin Thank you so much for sharing that Pamela! The work you do for the little ones is so cute. Did you see that the book is free on Kindle this weekend? I don't know if you have Kindle access but if so then check it out :)
