Family history research
Genealogy research at Woodvale
Brighton & Hove City Council has a statutory duty to maintain their Cemeteries and Crematorium Registers in perpetuity. Contained within these books is a wealth of information, which can assist those undertaking the research of their ancestors.
The records date from 1851 until the present day and can provide details of the final resting place of relatives, together with their age, the last known address and the district in which the death was registered - all relevant information for those wishing to learn more about their family. See also family tree research.
This is a list of the cemeteries and crematorium owned and managed by the council:
|Extra-Mural Cemetery
|Lewes Road, Brighton
|Brighton Cemetery
|Lewes Road, Brighton
|Brighton Cemetery
|Bear Road, Brighton
|Portslade Cemetery
|Victoria Road, Portslade
|Hove Cemetery
|Old Shoreham Road, Hove
|Woodvale Crematorium
|Lewes Road, Brighton
|Lawn Memorial Cemetery
|Warren Road, Brighton
|Jewish Cemetery Extension
|Meadow View, Brighton
Personal enquiries
Research can be undertaken personally by examining the Registers at the Woodvale Lodge, which is open to the public Monday to Friday 9am to 4.30pm (except Public Holidays). Car parking, including a bay for disabled people, is available immediately outside the offices.
Researchers unable to personally visit the Woodvale Lodge to search the registers may write to the address given below, noting the appropriate charges that operate for the service required.
The following charges will apply:
|Type of research
|For undertaking a search of a named person (in person at the office)
|For undertaking a search of a named person (by post)
|For undertaking a search of each subsequent person (in person at the office)
|For undertaking a search of each subsequent person (by post)
|For providing a plan of the cemetery, indicating the location of the grave-space
|For providing a colour digital image of the grave-space (there may not always be a memorial but the grave area will be photographed)
It must be appreciated that the Woodvale Lodge is a busy administrative office and you may be requested to vacate the Waiting Room if privacy is required whilst assisting bereaved clients. Any callers may therefore need to be patient whilst awaiting assistance from staff.
Order form
An order form for genealogy research [pdf 68kb] is available for downloading and printing. Please provide as much information as possible as most of the records need to be examined manually. The full names of the deceased and their date of death will usually provide staff with sufficient detail to carefully search the Registers.
Cheques to be made payable to Brighton & Hove City Council
Should the person named in correspondence be traced, then a summary of the information recorded in the cemetery/crematorium books will be prepared and sent to the correspondent. Regrettably, in the event of a search being unsuccessful, any fees paid cannot be refunded.
Contacting Bereavement Services
All personal and postal enquiries may be made by contacting Bereavement Services.
If you would like to comment on the Family History Research service we provide, then kindly request a genealogy research pre-paid postcard

"We take patient injuries and infections extremely seriously and are constantly working to improve," Hiubregtse said in a statement to 27 News. "We have programs specifically around surgical site, bloodstream and urinary catheter infections, and we are confident these will lower our rates moving forward."
Hiubregtse says the hospital has a multidisciplinary team that has increased staff accountability, and that they've also increased prevention efforts around hand hygiene and education for both staff and patients. She says because of those efforts, the hospital has had no Central Line Associated Bloodstream Infections in 2014.

Senators down Canucks in NHL Heritage Classic
Vancouver, BC, Canada (4E Sports) – Cody Ceci scored the go-ahead goal in the second period as the Ottawa Senators defeated the Vancouver Canucks, 4-2, in Sunday's 2014 Tim Hortons NHL Heritage Classic at BC Place.
Clarke MacArthur had a goal and an assist, Erik Karlsson and Collin Greening also scored while Craig Anderson made 29 saves as the Senators improved to (27-23-11).
With the victory, the Senators moved within three points of the Detroit Red Wings for the final wild-card spot in the Eastern Conference with 21 regular-season games remaining.
Jason Garrison and Zack Kassian scored while goaltender Eddie Lack made 24 saves as the surprise starter ahead of Roberto Luongo as the Canucks slipped to 28-25-10.
The Canucks also played most of the final two periods without top-line forward Daniel Sedin. Sedin was carrying the puck behind the Vancouver net early in the second period when he was hit into the boards by Ottawa defenseman Marc Methot.
Sedin remained down on the ice for several moments, but was able to skate off slowly on his own. He remained on the bench for a bit, but left for the locker room, with two Canucks employees helping him make the long walk from the ice to the locker room.
The Canucks scored twice in the first period, marking the first time they scored more than one goal in a period in 10 games, dating to the first period of their game Jan. 26 against the Phoenix Coyotes.
Garrison opened scoring 4:54 into the game with his fifth goal of the season after Collin Greening was called for high-sticking at 3:17.
The Canucks took full advantage when Garrison's shot from the point went off Kyle Turris' stick out high and went under the crossbar, giving them their first power-play goal in four games and snapped a 0-for-8 streak.
Kassian's 11th of the season made it 2-0 at 11:27. Karlsson had the puck deep in the right side of the Ottawa zone, but under pressure from Vancouver's Brad Richardson turned it over to Kassian. The Canucks forward sent a low shot on net that eluded Anderson.
The Senators scored twice in a span of 1:47 later in the first to tie the game, with MacArthur having a hand in both goals.
After Ceci put the Senators ahead in the second, Greening finished the game with an empty-net goal at 18:27 of the third.

Penn Waste Incorporated of York has a couple hundred workers and many of them had to deal with the heat; whether in a warehouse or out in the community collecting trash and recyclables.
The company does what it can to help workers deal with the high temperatures.
"We've contacted a lot of municipalities about starting maybe an hour early in the morning," said Penn Waste president Scott Wagner. "We have ice machines on site."
The plan on starting early, do a couple of hours in the early morning to avoid a couple of hours in the mid-afternoon. Did it help?
"Starting earlier, yeah," said Penn Waste driver Warren Wagner. "Try and get it done a little earlier before this heat."
For these guys, it has also become a question of their bodies acclimating to the heat.
"Today wasn't too bad, compared to other days, heat-wise," said loader Gary Bullock. "When it first started getting hot, like that whole week it was really hot, but today it wasn't too bad."
I asked Penn Waste owner Scott Wagner about people who may be upset that their garbage was picked up maybe a bit earlier than they were ready for. He urged patience toward his guys and for any other workers that may be outside.
"It also goes beyond our business," said Wagner. "It goes to the construction worker that's out on the street, the water company's out changing the water line and there are flag men out, construction workers -- just think we all have to be courteous to people that are out in this extreme heat."

I recently purchased a part for my G11 from a well known vendor. It arrived quickly. I noticed that it had threaded holes to add an accessory. I phoned Losmandy to get the part number for this accessory since it was not on the Losmandy website. Turned out, the accessory I wanted was part of the original purchase.
Rather then send me back to the vendor to correct the vendor's error, Losmandy sent me the part, free of charge.
Thanks, Bob

Whenever we say that something is "wondrous," we mean that the person, place, thing or event is amazing, astonishing, astounding, awesome, awful, eye-opening,fabulous, miraculous, portentous, prodigious, staggering, stunning, stupendous, sublime, surprising, wonderful, or marvelous. And more superlatives ad infinitum.
In all the history of mankind, nothing, absolutely nothing, reaches the magnitude of wonder like the Cross of Jesus Christ. The event was so staggering, phenomenal and spectacular that no amount of oratory, no compilation of vocabulary, phrase, diction or modifiers by pen on paper can tell the wonder. It would be like trying to dam the mighty Niagara Falls with toothpicks.
Join us for a moment to focus on one aspect of "The Wonder," namely the benefits of this magnificent exchange: His life for ours.

Day 69 of Project 365 - It was the last day at work today for a couple of people due to the cuts that are being made, so going against our traditional Friday Nandos lunch, we went to Vapiano's instead.
Vapiano is a great Italian restaurant serving delicious food with quick service. You are required to find and choose your own table/seat and you are not left waiting for long like you would be at other restaurants. In fact, with the pasta dishes, such as carbonara which is what I had, you stand and wait whilst they make it there in-front of you. They also use a cool card system for charging, which you swipe when you order a drink or food and build up your bill as you go along. Think of it like a personal tab which you pay off at the end, so no more hassle of splitting the bill amongst a group of you that contains people so against that idea.
With it being the 11th November I can't finish without mentioning it being Remembrance Day and was good to see majority of people at work with their poppy on show. It's also a special day for my lady and I, so a much deserved mention for her too :)

I would like to see then do it just for the consumer benifit. If you have 3 companies constantly battling for the #1 slot it makes innovation go so much faster. Instead of just the back and forth of 2.
Thank God, dude. It's about time. Can they please at least dip their toes into Windows' phone OS too? I'm really tired of it just being iOS vs Android (even though I HUGELY favor iOS over Android); I want to see more and possibly better (even though I'm also completely satisfied with iOS, I understand how good it will be for the market and the innovation that may come that I may never know I ever even wanted) mobile operating systems.
Apple's and Google's binopoly on mobile OSs is just no bueno.
I've tried aliyun os and liked it. its not quite ready to be a daily driver but its close. after another upgrade or two and a couple more features I might switch to it.
Not sure why we only have these limited OS options. Need more...like two or three more would be great. For the consumer choice is king.
It's too bad one operating system still dominates the PC market.
Not against windows mobile OS.
Samsung relied / relies on to many others. (Product making, OS ect, yes they make hardware for others... But in my eyes they copied everything or used everything)
They do this it will help them be more independent per say.
But yes i agree with the comment about Windows OS. (When I installed W8 theme on my iP4 I liked it... For the most part) we shud all come
Together AND MAKE OUR OWN lol jk
Also not against other OS's gaining ground... Would help the consumers in the long run.

Help! I Broke a Finger. What Can I Cook?
Good Questions
Q: I broke my small finger and now I have three fingers taped together.This, as you can imagine, makes it difficult to cook for me.
I would like to ask if there are any "easy" recipes that can be prepared with one hand if possible.
Sent by Dan
Editor: Dan, our sympathies! This could be your chance to perfect the one-handed egg crack, perhaps? We actually have a similar question in our archives that could be quite helpful! Take a look:
• Good Question: What Can I Cook With One Hand?
One additional piece of advice is to have a good pair of kitchen shears handy. You can use these one-handed, and they can do a lot of the work of a kitchen knife.
Readers, any thoughts?

Last night I made Uova in Purgatorio - its so easy that you could do it with one hand. You can find plenty of recipes online. But all you need to do is cook up some onion and garlic until soft, add a can of drained diced tomato (I use crushed or whole, really whatever is on hand) and a spoon of pesto, salt and pepper. Once its hot turn the heat to low and create some holes, drop in some eggs and cook until desired doneness. Eat with bread.
I recently gave my hand a good scalding and was temporarily one-handed. Sandwiches were my best friend. Not only can you assemble them without getting the injured hand messy, but you can eat them with one hand. Very useful!
Surely Uova with its careful egg cracking is not ideal? I love it though.
Suggesting couscous salad or something that just needs to be poured and stirred :)
Funny, I injured my hand this week too - the left one, and I'm a lefty. I've had no problem in the kitchen though, as I've managed to use my semi-functional claw to prop things up with. I've made sandwiches, sliced tomatoes, even made pasta!
Thanks for all your comments!!!
Sandwiches have become my new best friends and so have fresh egg pasta/gnocchi and ready sauces out of a jar!
@Neris_k How could I forget the good old cous-cous?!

Ah - beautiful Wieskirche! In a peaceful meadow near Steingaden at the southern end of the Romantic Road lies the fabulous Wieskirche (Wies Church) or Pilgrimage Church of Wies.
Also known as "The Church in the Meadow", Wieskirche is one of the most famous Baroque churches in the world and is considered one of the most beautiful. Replete with Rococo sculptures and frescos, Wieskiche's splendor is unparalleled. The church and its bucolic location in the rolling foothills of the southern Bavarian Alps evoke a strong feeling of reverence and awe.
The history of Wieskirche began on June 14, 1738 when it is said that tears were seen on a wooden statue of the crucified Christ situated in a field in the small hamlet of Wies. The news quickly spread and masses of pilgrims from all over the world began traveling to Wieskirche to see the statue and to worship and pray. Therefore, in 1740, a small chapel, still on the property today, was built to house the statue and to accommodate the visiting worshippers.
As the number of pilgrims visiting the site greatly exceeded the small dwelling, the nearby Steingaden Abbey decided to build a church - the current Wieskirche. So in the 1740s, the magnificent Baroque structure was designed by Dominikus Zimmermann and built by Abbot Marianus II Mayer.
Zimmermann so loved Wieskirche that he could not bear to leave it, so he built himself a small house next to the church, where he lived until his death. We can understand Zimmermann's dilema as spending time at Wieskirche was certainly a highlight on our tour of Bavaria!
Each year thousands of people from around the world visit Wieskirche. Many come to appreciate the baroque architecture and intricate Rococo artwork created by Dominikus Zimmermann and his brother Johann Baptist Zimmermann of Wessobrunnin. Others come as those did in days past, to experience the spiritual power of Wieskirche and to worship, pray, and to seek meaning and direction in their lives.
In 1983, Wieskirche was honored by the United Nations in 1983 by being added to the World Heritage List maintained by UNESCO. Click here to see a large verison of the photograph above in a new browser window. (Link goes to Wikimedia Commons; public domain photo by Mattana.)
Wieskirche is a functioning church and celebrates regular worship services. Days and times vary by season, but a schedule can be found on the official Wieskirche listed below. Concerts are also held in the church at various times during the year.
The official name of the church is Pilgrimage Church of the Scourged Saviour - or Wallfahrtskirche zum Gegeißelten Heiland auf der Wies.
While in the area, stop in the nearby resort village of Steingaden. Stroll through the historic market town and see Welfenmünster, the church of the former Steingaden Monastery. The monastery was consecrated in 1176 and the present buildings that remain were built in the 17th century.
Visit the official Wieskirche website for more information. There is an English version of the site available.
Please see our new webpage, Photographs of Wieskirche - the Church in the Meadow, for some lovely, large pictures of this magnificent church.
If you do plan to travel to Germany, be sure to read our homepage Traveling in Germany for general information, handy tips, and links to helpful websites to assist in your trip planning.
Bon Voyage!

Funny Presidents Obama and Clinton
This Friday we continue our freaking experiment with provided source images. Photoshop this image of two presidents any way you wish (image credit Pete Souza, US Government Work). Some examples are - re-dressing President Obama or former President Clinton, designing a poster with this image of the two presidents, putting the presidents into some new environment, movies, paintings, etc. These are just some ideas.
Funny Chelsea Clinton Wedding
Chelsea Clinton's wedding day is finally here - and it's dominating the news today. The media already called it America's "Royal" Wedding - because of the number and caliber of the guests and because the wedding price tag has by far beaten all celebrity weddings and even Royal weddings in history. The total wedding price is $5 million, out of which $3 mil is paid by papa Bill, and the other $2 mil is being laid off on US Taxpayers as Secret Service costs for protecting former president Clinton and foreign heads of state, such as the presidents of France and Italy and former British Prime Minister Tony Blair, who are among the 500 invited guests along with Barbara Streisand, Steven Spielberg, Oprah Winfrey, and Ted Turner. All 500 guests will be asked to surrender their mobile phones and any recording devices before being subjected to security checks suitable for an international summit. For comparison, when country music star Keith Urban married actress Nicole Kidman in 2006, their wedding cost $250,000. This large sum hardly counts as a celebrity wedding. When mega-millionaire real estate mogul Donald Trump married model Melania Knauss, the wedding bill was $1,000,000. The marriages of Madonna and film director Guy Ritchie, Tiger Woods and Elin Nordegren, and Michael Douglas and Catherine Zeta-Jones pushed up the cost of celebrity marriages to $1.5 million. Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes upped the ante to $2,000,000. The cost of the wedding of Diana Spencer to Prince Charles? $3,000,000. Chelsea Clinton's is getting married to investment banker Mark Mezvinsky, but let's photoshop how this "Royal" wedding could be between Chelsea Clinton and somebody else. To celebrate, we're also throwing a "Royal jackpot" for this contest by doubling it.
Funny Obama Clinton 2008
Hillary Clinton ended her bid for the White House, while Obama sealed the nomination. The tables turned, and just 2 months later after Clinton was offering a VP seat to Obama, she now openly stated she'll be happy to be Obama's running mate, if he puts her on VP ticket. Let's go one step ahead of media sources and announce that Hillary Clinton will be Obama's running mate in 2008 presidential elections. Photoshop Hillary Clinton as Obama's puppet. Here's a similar example (done with Al Gore and Howard Dean). You can simply photoshop "master Obama and puppet Clinton" together, or use this puppet theme in Obama Clinton 2008 election posters, demotivational posters, movies, and paintings.
Funny Clinton Obama 2008
Cuban President Fidel Castro, who hasn't been seen in public for 13 months, has made a prediction in a national newspaper that Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama will be an unbeatable team and will win the 2008 U.S. Presidential elections. Castro suggested that Clinton will run for President and Obama will be her running mate. According to current polls, Clinton is most likely to receive the Democratic nomination, and Barack Obama is running second in ratings. So far in the debates Clinton and Obama have shown many disagreements and differences, yet did not burn the bridges for running together. Photoshop emblem or advertising for Clinton Obama 2008 presidential election campaign, or anything connected to Clinton and Obama running for office together. We will also accept entries showing what changes America and the world will see if Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama win the 2008 US Presidential Elections.
Funny Hillary Clinton for President?
Senator Hillary Clinton officially declared her bid for presidency 2008. Making her announcement Hillary said "I'm in". This is the phrase she rarely heard from Bill in their bedroom. In this contest you are asked to photoshop anything connected to Senator Hillary Clinton running for president of United States. Examples may be photoshopping magazine covers, campaign photos, or future presidency achievements. Thanks to Keb for sponsoring this contest.

01.04.2008 11:59:25 Remastered edition of the Hateplow's debut album
Hateplow is not an average death metal band. Although stripped from any technical virtuosities or progressive experimentation, this group offers something which is (or should be) essential for all heavy music formations - the sheer brutality and aggression of metal enclosed in the most violent form possible. Hateplow is the ultimate death metal experience, where the only thing that matters is to bang your head and scream your guts out! The band feat. Phil Fasciana (Malevolent Creation), Rob Barrett (Cannibal Corpse), longtime underground scene stalwart Crazy Larry Hawke, Tim Scott (Revenant) and Kyle Symons (ex-Sickness) released their debut album in 1998. "Everybody Dies" remains a great debut album by a true death metal giant. If you haven't heard of Hateplow yet, this is the perfect opportunity to make up for the lost time.
Metal Mind Productions will release "Everybody Dies" in a new digipak edition, limited to numerated 2000 copies, digitally remastered using 24-Bit process on golden disc. The album will be available on 5th May 2008 (Europe).

Rarely does a regular-season game carry with it all the baggage that Tuesday night's Jazz-Suns game carried.
Baggage full up with ramifications.
|Join the Discussion
|Post a Comment
Ramifications diverse enough to have advantages and disadvantages in either direction.
Advantages and disadvantages not quite strong enough to persuade or console proponents of one direction to switch over to or be balmed by the other.
Directions exclusive enough, on the one hand, to push the Jazz into the playoffs with a win, and, on the other, to put them in the lottery with a loss.
It came down to this, then: playoffs now or pieces for the future later.
The Jazz got the playoffs, beating the Suns, 100-88, at EnergySolutions Arena. And they were jacked about it afterward.
"A lot of people were counting us out," Al Jefferson said.
Well. Not anymore.
The same Jazz said from season's onset that the playoffs were their goal, all while many on the outside wondered if they could win 25 games. As it is, they'll likely end up with 36.
"If we do the right things, we'll be a team that makes a run at the playoffs," Tyrone Corbin said in December.
"With the talent we have on this team, if things click and the chemistry is there, we have a chance to have a great season," Jeff Hornacek said.
"We'll make the playoffs … I think," C.J. Miles said. "For sure … I think."
There is no I think about it anymore. The Jazz are in.
"Everybody's excited," Derrick Favors said after the win. "I was excited. We're happy. We worked all year for this … We had to prove everybody wrong."
The players got what they wanted.
Gordon Hayward was so caught up in the moment, he actually said, without laughing: "The goal isn't just to get to the playoffs, it's to win the whole thing."
Some of the fans got what they wanted, too. But only some of them.
Others wanted another high pick in the draft, something the Jazz forfeit by way of the Jefferson deal with Minnesota in qualifying for the postseason. It comes down to this: Would you rather make the playoffs and face San Antonio in the first round and not have the pick or not make the playoffs and gain a lottery selection … say, another Hayward … to add to your arsenal for a more proper run next season?
Life's full of tough choices.
But not for Corbin and his players, all of whom, as stated, wanted their place in the sun, on this occasion by beating the Suns, even if it means probable first-round elimination.Next Page >

Cooking for One: Eggs for Dinner
If I'm going to have a solo dinner at home, I usually reach for an egg or two. An egg can be whipped up into something delicious and satisfying in just a few minutes. I know that cooking for one shouldn't automatically eliminate fussy cooking or a proper meal, but a plate of scrambled eggs served with crunchy toast is often exactly what I want for dinner.
Baked eggs, like the ones from Leela pictured above, tempted me last night. So delicious and quick—and I baked them in my toaster oven! Then there's the fried egg, with its runny yolk turned sauce when placed on top of a snarl of pasta. The fried egg is also wonderful atop an egg bowl spiked with fresh vegetables and chewy brown rice. Or a pizza, or a bowl full of beans and greens.
The list is as long as your imagination, but here are a few recipes and ideas from The Kitchn to help get you started.

Ha, great article, I'll have to show my bf!
I like to whip up a quick omelet and stuff it with veggies when he's not around for dinner and he thinks it's the weirdest thing - in his mind, eggs are a breakfast dish. Period. A poached egg on salad for lunch is pushing it, but eggs for dinner... not in his world;)
Little does he know what he's missing!
So...Kitchn, now that cupcakes/foods in a jar are passe and bacon is returning to breakfast or ingredient status and releasing us of its deific thrall...which do you support for next food-fad-stardom? Avocados or Eggs?
Not to diss the foods, I LOVE them, but it seems like there have been a lot of both lately. Maybe it's just that irresistible ovoid shape... :)
Egg whites are a great staple to have on hand. I often whip up an omelet with whatever veggies I have in my fridge for a quick dinner.
Even I go for something with egg when I am alone ,..:)
When I was growing up, my dad would fix himself (and anyone who wanted one) an egg poached in heavy cream. When I am alone I will sometimes do the same but only about once a year. Bring cream to a simmer and slip in that wonderful egg, season with salt and pepper and cover for a few minutes until done to your liking. The white melts into the cream and served with a slice of buttered toast it is heaven on a plate!! Still one of the best memories of my dad.
I think eggs are the perfect "alone" dinner. I also like to boil them, chop em, throw in some salt pepper and butter and just nibble away.. sooooo good!
I love eggs for every meal and I'm really glad they've debunked the 'eggs will kill you' myth. One of my favorites is actually an over medium egg on a small baked potato (or with a small side of hash browns/country fries). I also love poached eggs and sourdough toast. Definitely need to try egg on pasta or rice- sounds amazing!
I'm eating egg salad right now.
Occasionally an egg over sauteed spinach and polenta hits the spot for dinner. Spanish tortas or an Italian frittata are occasionally good as well. However, I admit that I still tend to equate eggs with breakfast.
Hi, where is the recipe for the baked eggs pictured above? They look amazing.
i love eggs any time of day. i would love a feature on the array of egg types and which is healthiest. Cage free vs organic, omega 3 fortified, and those ones that are fed grains that make the yolks yellow? I am befuddled by the choices.
Eggs in a basket/toad in the hole FTW.
@ Hilaro - here's the recipe for the dish pictured above. I'm with you, they look AMAZING!
As long as the yolk is runny...I'm a happy girl.
My favorite recipe is Ina Garten's herbed-baked eggs. So delicious and really pretty too.
I just made "moroccan eggs" (eggs in purgatory with toasted spiced garbanzos added) the other night, and often slap a poached egg on top of lentils or a warm spinach salad. Or just scrambled over buttered toast if it has been an especially rotten day.

A Quincy Junior High School student was taken to Blessing Hospital Thursday morning after a fight at the school.
The Quincy Police Department said two 13-year-old boys were involved in the fight around 7:40 a.m., before classes started.
Students at Quincy Junior High School described a graphic fight.
"It happened right by my locker, and I just heard all kinds of screaming and a fight," QJHS student Leslie Dhom said.
"His head was gushing out blood," QJHS student Wynter Knight added.
Lt. Dina Dreyer said one boy hit the other with a combination pad lock, after looping the lock on his belt and swinging it. The injured boy was treated and released from Blessing Hospital for an injury to the head.
"Anytime there is probably a head wound, you're probably going to get blood and that makes it even more exciting I guess that everybody starts reacting when they see something visually," Dreyer said.
Dreyer said one of the boys was arrested for aggravated battery.
Dreyer said the fight was retaliation from an unknown incident that had taken place outside of school on Wednesday. Officers are still trying to find out more about that incident.
Quincy Police investigated a number of incidents at the Junior High building last school year, including a string of threatening notes that prompted a strong presence of armed officers.
The 2012-13 school year began in August with the newly hired principal, Dan Sparrow, calling for a crackdown on student troublemakers.
Last month, Sparrow said stricter disciplinary rules had resulted in a significant decline in the number of fights at Quincy Junior High. (See "Quincy Jr. High handing out strict punishments for fighting, swearing")
Sparrow declined to comment on Thursday's fight, referring all questions to Quincy Public Schools Interim Superintendent, Dr. Cal Lee.
Lee described the fight as "a significant one." Lee would not elaborate any further on the fight, but he said it was being taken seriously.
"Staff handled the situation. They dealt with it," Lee said.
Although police said a student had been arrested and faces aggravated battery charges, Lee would not comment on whether the student would be allowed back in school. Police released the boy to the custody of his parents.
"It's just very sad, very sad that situation happened between some children," Deborah Stock, a parent of a QJHS student, said.
Parents and students both hope school officials will hand down a harsh punishment to prevent another graphic fight like this one.
"It was just scary, I don't know.. it was just scary," QJHS student Alexis Fessenden said.
"I know that this has been a better year, I do think that this is going to happen, I just don't know what they can do to prevent it in the future," Amy Beck, a parent of a QJHS student, said.

We'll keep this short because we're pretty shell-shocked.
It's game over for Bloom.fm.
Our investor, who's been along for the ride since day one, has unexpectedly pulled our funding.
It's come so out of the blue that we don't have time to find new investment. So, with enormous regret, we have to shut up shop.
This is a poetically crappy turn of events as our young business was showing real promise. Our apps and web player are looking super-nice and we had 1,158,914 registered users in a little over a year. Yep.
A massive thanks to everyone that helped us get this far. We're absolutely gutted. But it's been a real pleasure.

An effort to document my 2,700 mile journey from Boca Raton, Florida to Los Angeles, California.
An epic drive.
An epic gamble.
An epic adventure.
Catching Elephant is a theme by Andy Taylor
I've got plans to go out tonight, but I got a random and much appreciated invite to go to the Magic Castle Club for dinner with some friends from my office back in Ft. Lauderdale.
The Magic Castle is a block from my apartment in Hollywood, and I've been curious about it since I got here. Why? Because it's nearby…and looks like a castle.
My knee-jerk response was "no" because I was going to the gym, had half-assed and ordinary dinner plans, and I knew I'd have to cut dinner short to keep my bar plans for later tonight.
But the YES MAN peptalk struck me again like a pillowcase stuffed with Academy Awards, and I made some phone calls, adapted, and made it work. Not rocket science but more proactive in this regard than I'm accustomed to being.
So I'm outside the Club about to enjoy another new and almost-turned-down experience.
It's all about the YES…and The U.

The finale goes on and on, but the movie is nicely photographed and duly empowering, and should please the vast teen-girl audience for which it's intended.
The emotional story and fine acting are enough to make this a must-see movie for teen girls. The real surprise is that they can make a grown man cry.
It's heartening to see a movie about teenage girls that is concerned with serious questions and avoids the pettiness that filmmakers tend to ascribe to young women of that age.
Kudos to a movie that encourages girls -- and everyone else -- to accept their bodies, to forgive their friends and family and to live their lives to the fullest.
A sweet-natured journey not to a galaxy far, far away, but to someplace just as mysterious: the first tentative steps toward adulthood, taken here by four teenage girls.
It sounds like it should be incredibly trite, but it never really is, despite a few alarming dips into the waters of clich�. Strong performances from the four leads carry a well-crafted film along to its emotional but never quite poignant ending.
Pop moviemaking aimed towards an underserved demographic, but one respects its approach in assuming its audience is at least intelligent and emotionally mature.
Equal parts touching and corny, the film is a sentimental teen girl summer adventure that has enough genuine moments to rise above its familiar feeling of plain old recycled clothing.
For the most part, director Ken Kwapis and screenwriters Delia Ephron and Elizabeth Chandler (who adapted Ann Brashares' novel) keep things tart, dry-eyed and briskly moving.
Four friends on a quest to find something, only to realize that anything resembling an answer is to be found in the journey itself, in their friendships, and in themselves.
Sisterhood is one of those rare teen movies that not only encapsulates the hazards of growing up but allows an adult audience to relate to and enjoy instead of endure.
Sisterhood may not be much more than a story about girlfriends growing up, and it's not going to score any points for edginess, but it's entertaining in a low-key, non-threatening kind of way.
The Sisterhood of Traveling Pants is ideal for a mother-daughter or best-friends-forever cinema excursion, but it may not be the most satisfying two hours for the rest of the movie-going public.
The cinema has seen plenty of coming-of-age tales over the decades, but few are as sweet and well-constructed as this take on the popular Ann Brashares novel.
Call it something of a minor miracle that The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants has turned out so enormously enjoyable.
There is such confidence and loving direction in "The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants."
It's all a bit simplistic, but it's harmless enough and goes down smoothly. I rather enjoyed it.
Four strong performances from four young actresses aside, there's nothing here that you haven't seen before, better, and with a lot more sincerity.
You may actually think it's going somewhere at the time. But ultimately, you realize it's only going through the motions.
Unashamedly aimed at its pre-teen target market, who will probably in all fairness, really enjoy it.
It sounds like a touchy-feely Gap commercial, but this fantastical premise jars with a refreshingly realistic look at girls making the tricky transition to womanhood.
The cast lend a great deal of credibility to the material and director Ken Kwapis knows when to cut away from a scene when it carries the potential for shmaltz.

Birdsong (Revelation)0 Reviews
More blood is shed, and Rin reappears.
It wasn't much of a song, and he was still too hazy with sleep to make out just what kind of birds they were. For a moment, he lay there in half-conscious peace, and he wondered how many birds had to die before the ones left stopped singing. He decided that they'd probably keep singing right to the end. Maybe they wouldn't even notice their losses.
He could feel sunlight teasing at his eyelids, but he refused to open even one.
A hand latched onto the back of his ANBU outfit and hauled him to his feet. "Hatake-san, you're awake," Shinzui said, his tone as delicately polite as ever.
Kakashi grunted and tried to shove him away. His head hurt--no, that wasn't it. There was a phantom pain lancing behind his left eye. He had a passing thought that perhaps Obito was annoyed with how stupid he'd been lately.
"You don't seem to be so enthusiastic about rescuing Rin-san today," Shinzui observed.
The words hit Kakashi like ice. He snapped his eyes open and staggered as he saw the world not quite in sync. Shinzui caught him, but he pulled free of his grasp and closed his left eye so he could steady himself. "Let's go."
"Not going to stop to have some rations?"
"We can eat while we're moving," Kakashi said sharply.
Shinzui said nothing as he scuffed out the signs of their presence and put his mask back on.
When Kakashi asked the question, Shinzui actually stumbled slightly and nearly fell from the branches. He turned it into a graceful descent at the last moment and landed soundlessly on the ground.
Kakashi dropped down behind him. "Who was that in the picture?" he repeated.
Shinzui was very still for a moment. "I don't think you need to know that, Hatake-san. It's a matter of the past, and we don't have time for that now."
"We're not that close to our targets yet," Kakashi said. "We don't need to be silent while we move." He did not take his gaze away from the other man.
After a long moment, Shinzui leapt back off the ground, blurring through the air until he caught hold of a branch. Kakashi did not hesitate in following him. It was not until several minutes after they had started moving again that Shinzui said, so quietly it was nearly lost in the rush of their passage, "The man in the picture was someone very precious to me, Hatake-san."
"Who--" Kakashi started to say, but Shinzui signaled sharply from ahead of him to cut him off.
"No," he said. "There's someone ahead of us. I believe it's one of our targets."
Kakashi could not help but wonder if Shinzui had waited until he knew they were approaching their quarry before saying anything, but it was pointless to contemplate for long.
Shinzui leapt back down to the ground, landing in motionless silence. His stillness made him nearly invisible. Nobody else seemed to occupy the clearing around him, but Kakashi could hear, very faintly, the rustles of someone circling slowly through the surrounding forest.
Kakashi remained balanced in the branches at the edge of the clearing. It was better up here than on the ground in so many ways.
He wouldn't have seen the grey shape detach from a tree trunk and run out at Shinzui if he'd been looking with the eyes of two days ago. As it was, he almost missed it. Shinzui also barely caught the approach in time. He tensed, preparing to dodge and counterattack.
But the attack, when it came, was not aimed at him. A keen-edged sickle on a chain whipped out in Kakashi's direction instead. No, that wasn't it--it wasn't aimed at him, either, although the difference was very subtle. It was heading for the base of the branches that held him up.
Kakashi waited until the last second, then rolled aside onto another cluster of branches, leaving a shadow clone where he'd been before. The branches and the clone tumbled down, and in an instant, the enemy lunged once more, a long knife appearing in his free hand.
At that point, the real Kakashi swung down out of the treetops and landed on the missing-nin's back. He slammed his fist into the other man's throat--not hard enough to kill, but enough to leave him weakened and breathless.
The enemy collapsed with a low grunt. Kakashi crouched over him, staring down at the grey-clad man, trying to find something that would differentiate him from any other human being. He couldn't find it. After a moment, he reached for his sword.
Shinzui's hand clasped down on his arm, and hard. He addressed the missing-nin, his tone cold and polite. "You need to tell us where the Leaf kunoichi you abducted is."
"She was the one who wanted to come," the grey ninja muttered.
Shinzui let out a small, carefully controlled sigh. "Very well." He let go of Kakashi's arm and walked around to kneel by their captive's head. He lifted it so that the man could not avoid his gaze--his Sharingan were activated now--and said again, "Where is the Leaf kunoichi called Hayashino Rin?"
"...two miles to the west, near the surface of an offshoot of the Shinkuu cave system."
Shinzui's serene lack of expression did not change. "How is she guarded?"
"My partner is there."
"And his defenses?"
"He was from Sand. He uses air jutsu and senbon."
Shinzui nodded slightly. "Thank you." He stood up. "Hatake-san..."
Kakashi stood up, one foot still on the grey ninja's back, and made as if to draw his sword. With it half out of the sheath, he paused. "What have you done to her?" he asked in a low voice.
He could see the very edge of the missing-nin's grin. "Too late. When I came out here to delay you two, my partner was already starting the jutsu."
"What jutsu?"
"It's really a lot like the summoning contract she had you sign recently!" There was a manic edge to the grey ninja's voice. "Less consensual, though, and with a rougher crowd than her puppies. We've been working on it for--"
He was babbling now. Kakashi drew his sword out the rest of the way and drove it into their captive's back, through his heart and into the ground. He leaned on it and felt the blade sink deeper into the earth as it grew muddy with blood.
"Hatake-san," Shinzui said, "that's enough."
Kakashi yanked the blade out of the dying man. He did not bother to sheathe it before leaping up into the treetops and launching himself in the right direction.
The blood and earth were drying on his sword by the time he reached the edge of the forest and the start of the caves. He hit the ground, and as he straightened up again, Shinzui observed, "You should have cleaned that. A ninja must care for his weapons."
"Ninja are weapons," Kakashi said. He started for the cave mouth, only to stop as he saw light flicker inside it.
Rather anticlimactically, Rin walked out into the light.
She seemed unchanged, if a little pale. Kakashi ached with combined relief and worry. Then he opened his left eye, and he felt sick.
She looked /wrong/. There were inhuman things uncoiling from her center, devouring her own chakra as they stretched themselves out. He wanted to shout to her, warn her of the danger she was in, but what would he say? It wasn't the kind of danger they'd been trained to watch for. Sensei had never said anything about monsters that would tear up their soul.
Before he could say anything, though, she looked up. Her whole face brightened at the sight of him, making him oddly happy. At the same time, though, there was something off about her expression. He couldn't pinpoint it, but--
No. She looked scared.
She broke into a run in his direction, but then she stopped abruptly, jerking upright. Kakashi ran ahead to meet her halfway.
Or he tried to, anyway. Before he got more than a few steps, a concentrated blast of air slammed into his chest. He staggered back.
While Kakashi struggled to keep his balance, another man in grey materialized as if blown in on the wind. He smiled. "You must be Kakashi, and...whoever the other ANBU is. I don't know why my partner didn't take care of you, but--"
Kakashi lunged, his dirtied sword whipping around low to the ground to cut into his opponent's legs. Shinzui darted around from the other side.
Between them, the missing-nin exploded in a brutal blast of air. Kakashi saw it coming a moment beforehand, and he and Shinzui pulled back, but not in time. The blast knocked them onto their backs.
Shinzui was up an instant later, but before Kakashi could move, the grey shinobi standing over him, one foot over his solar plexus. "If you were going to come all this way," he said, "you could at least have been on time when you got here. But no, you're late."
Kakashi lifted his sword, but there was some kind of vortex spinning around the missing-nin, deflecting his blade. "You got what you wanted with her, then," he said. "Now let her go."
The grey ninja just smiled slightly and lifted a brow. "Rin," he called, "your boyfriend wants you back."
"I'm her teammate," Kakashi snarled. Now that he focused, the Sharingan could make out the subtle currents flowing around his opponent. "Not her boyfriend." He should be able to slip a blow in--
The missing-nin stepped down just so. Ribs cracked sharply. Kakashi tasted blood and realized he'd bitten his lip. It took a moment for him to realize that there was no longer a foot on his chest.
Instead, there was a rain of needles falling toward his throat. He was too dazed to move out of the way in time, but he could see them coming with perfect clarity.
Then they weren't there anymore. Rin's hand swept them out of the way, and then she stood facing the grey ninja, fury on her face. "You promised me you wouldn't hurt him."
"You don't need him anymore." The man sounded rather bored.
Rin stared for a moment longer. Then she said, "I did all this for him!" She reached out, and the alien chakra raced along her hand and bloomed outwards from her palm. Before he could do more than widen his eyes, the missing-nin was flung back by the force of it.
Right onto Shinzui's blade. "Thank you, Rin-san," the Uchiha said. He drew his sword out of his victim, took out a cloth, and began fastidiously cleaning the blood from it.
Kakashi couldn't stop staring at the swell of dark chakra inside of Rin's body. He pushed himself into a sitting position and reached for her. "Rin--"
What was he supposed to say?
I'm sorry I was late, maybe? But that couldn't possibly be enough.
Are you all right would just be absurd.
She turned to him with a small, broken smile, and he thought of what he had to say. The realization hurt worse than the broken ribs.
I love you.
But he couldn't say that.

Martial arts help children with Asperger Syndrome
Bromley Autistic Trust AGM
Canterbury & District Women
Graduates 2011
Post Graduate Certificate in
Asperger Syndrome
Sandra Beale-Ellis, 2008
My interest in Autism, and in particular, Asperger's Syndrome started many years ago, when a parent of a karate student, told me her son had been diagnosed with Asperger's. My initial reaction was ignorance and following that class I read as much as I could on Asperger's. My interest grew and I now teach many children with Asperger's and other ASDs.
Martial arts are a popular sport, more commonly known in the industry as arts. There are many martial arts including the arts of taekwondo, karate, tai chi and kung fu to name a few. These disciplines and others, are further split into a variety of styles. 'Taekwondo has proven to be another great intervention for many kids with Asperger's Syndrome (Willey, 2003).
Martial art training is very consistent and regular classes are likely to be similar in content, satisfying the child with Asperger's need for routine and predictability. There is a ranking system of belts a child can achieved and techniques become more difficult with each belt. Basic training is always practised however, even when the student achieves the highest grades. This can be repetitive and can be a bore to many children, but to the child with Asperger's, this repetition can be comforting. Luke Jackson (author of Freaks, Geeks and Asperger's Syndrome, 2002) agrees 'the fact that it is so structured and predictable makes it the perfect form of exercise for anyone on the autistic spectrum'.
The structure of a lesson is usually similar in that there is always a warm up of about 10-15 minutes, the basics, maybe some group work, possibly some sparring, and a short cool down or discussion session. There are variations to this, but for instructors experienced in teaching students with ASDs, if a major change is planned, students are told in advance. For example, if a different hall is to be used, students on the spectrum are invited to visit the hall and become familiar in advance of the class.
I found that over the years of teaching children with Asperger's, when the class is due to learn new concepts or moves, it is most effective to pair them up with empathetic higher graded peers so that the student can be taught on a one-to-one basis, and then join the main class when he or she feels more confident. Watching other children execute the moves may also be an effective way to learn. This is relatively easy in martial arts as most of the work is taught in sections, eg, blocks or kicks, and then repeated over and over until the students are competent. With these basic moves, the child with Asperger's feels comfortable because there is little need for any physical contact or interaction.
For a child with Asperger's, who often experiences 'lax joints, immature grasp, slowed pace of movements and problems with manual dexterity' (Kirby 2002, cited in Groft and Black 2003), a martial art such as karate or taekwondo can be very beneficial. The kicking skills of these arts, and others besides, are an excellent way to develop balance, co-ordination and flexibility in all children. Groups of movements known as 'kata' or 'forms'; and the various stances needed, develop strength, and also the ability to move the body in diverse ways. It can also help with the left versus right issue many children have.
There are some who may express concern about a child with an ASD practising martial arts. The tantrums which can occur during times of tiredness, frustration or anger could mean that the child will strike out with taught moves. While it is true many techniques can be dangerous, these would take many years to perfect with specific knowledge, and more dangerous techniques are never taught to children, with autism, or otherwise. All children who are taught martial arts are constantly reminded that if the arts are misused or abused, the child will be withdrawn from training and there may be serious legal ramifications. In my experience, students with Asperger's, love their classes, and would try hard not to put their training in jeopardy. I teach my students, more so for those on the spectrum, simple breathing exercises which they can use wherever they happen to be, if they feel tension or anger coming on.

Why Loving Parents Hurt Their Children
Featured Article from Issue 2 of Positive Parenting Digest
Many years ago, way before I ventured into the field of parent education, my younger child once asked me,"Daddy, why do some parents hit their children?" Honestly, I didn't really have the answer. How would I know? I don't hit our children. But I know from childhood experience that my mother was pretty upset when she caned me. So, wanting to look knowledgeable, I made up an answer and explained that perhaps these parents were angry with their children.
I thought that would satisfy his curiosity, but I was wrong. "So, is it okay to hit someone when you are angry?", he further inquired. Now, that made me felt like I was walking on a slippery slope. Young children are very smart these days, and they don't let you off the hook easily. I decided to come clean and confessed, "To tell you the truth, I don't really know why some parents hit their children. But I do know that it is not alright to hit someone, regardless of whether you are angry or not." He seemed pleased, and that bought me some time to investigate further.
Over the years, I have become an avid student of a topic called 'discipline.' I have read scores of parenting literature on this subject, held countless discussions with parents, and consulted with several parenting experts. I studied the findings from the multitude of research that social scientists have done on corporal punishment. I interviewed advocates of corporal punishment (some of whom are deeply religious and highly educated individuals) to understand their point of view. This article presents my key findings and conclusions.
Firstly, I discovered that all parents are driven by well-meaning intentions. They seek to do what they think is of the best interests for their children, although some of their actions are hurtful. The reasons that parents hit their children are many, but there are generally two categories of parents – those who reacted emotionally and those who acted with conscious deliberation.
Hitting Children out of Anger
The first group of parents confessed that they hit their children out of anger or frustration. In other words, they had lost control of themselves, and often felt remorseful subsequently. They acknowledged that hitting children is inappropriate, especially when they witnessed the latter picking up aggressive behaviors after them. They simply couldn't help it when emotions run high.
Emotional reactions almost always occur unconsciously, and most people have some difficulty managing their emotions. Parents are no exception. Some have learnt to cope by walking away when they are upset, only to return to their children when they have calmed down. Others simply stopped when their children have grown too big to be hit without risking their physical retaliation. A consistent observation from these parents is that they don't justify their actions, for they certainly don't feel good about hurting the children they love.
Hitting Children as a Form of Punishment
The second group comprises practitioners and advocates of corporal punishment. They come in different degrees of zealousness about the merits of being strict or harsh with children. Some swore by it, citing that it works miraculously to get their children to behave desirably, especially after having exhausted other methods such as reasoning, bribing, threatening, and nagging. Some voiced that the adverse effects of corporal punishment reported in research might be overrated, as either they or their children had turned out "fine." Many felt that children must not be allowed to 'get away' with their wrong doings unpunished for fear that the lack of consequences will encourage further misdeeds. Some quote the Holy Bible and words of their religious leaders as the sources of authority, while others claimed that even parenting experts advocate the use of corporal punishment.
What do they have in common? Unlike the first group, these parents had reasons for their actions. They were able to justify the act of hurting children with explanations that are 'valid' at least from their unique perspectives. Although most of them expressed that they felt somewhat 'bad' about hitting their children, they sincerely believed it was the 'right' thing to do.
The Right Thing Isn't Necessary Alright
Now, just ask any five-year-old if he or she thought whether hitting another person is alright, and the answer is obviously "No!" How is it that grown-ups who are supposedly wiser and more experienced thought otherwise? They know instinctively that hitting children is undesirable, yet they do it anyway. The absurdity illustrated by the following words from Haim Ginott:
When a child hits a child, we call it aggression.
When a child hits an adult, we call it hostility.
When an adult hits an adult, we call it assault.
When an adult hits a child, we call it discipline.
What is it that the innocent young child sees that these adults don't? Daniel Goleman (author of Emotional Intelligence) has an explanation. In his book Vital Lies, Simple Truths: The Psychology of Self-Deception, Goleman attributes such phenomenon to what he termed a lacuna, meaning a 'blind spot' that escapes our field of attention or awareness. He suggests that somewhere in the human mind lies a mechanism of self-deception that filters out the facts that we don't want to know, without even us knowing.
Beware of Blind Spots
And just as any driver would know, ignoring our blind spots is dangerous and predisposes us to possible disasters. In parenting, the stakes could be too high to handle. Some people lose their children, while others struggle with daily conflicts that deprive them of the intrinsic joy that parenting was supposed to bring.
Now, if you fall into the second category of parents that I had described above, consider examining the possible blindspots by reading the 5 Common Misconceptions About Discipline and Punishment with an open mind, and form your judgment thereafter. If you're in the first category, you may wish to pick up Goleman's bestseller Emotional Intelligence and hone your emotional management skills.
Whichever category you fall into, let me invite you to support a nationwide movement to help parents to stop hurting children in the name of discipline, and start loving them through the practice of non-punitive discipline by making a PLEDGE TODAY!

The Ballad of Luke Warm
The Ballad of Luke Warm is a simple 12 minute film intended to condemn apathy and hypocrisy among Christians. The film was put together by Benjamin Tindall and a handful of willing volunteers. We hope that you will watch it and see that following Christ means to act out your faith, not simply to appear spiritual when it is convenient or self-serving.

Illinois State Police look to bring back a controversial weapon for troopers, tasers. But for Rockford officers that wait is still on. Rockford Police told us more than a year ago taser were close to making a return. Now they are not sure when it will happen.
"It's a collective decision that we are examining about whether or not we want to put the tasers back out there," says Deputy Chief Mike Dalke.
Deputy Chief Dalke says once he gets the word tasers could be back in officers' hands in a month. But that's not where Rockford is yet.
In 2009, police brass pulled tasers off the streets. The year before, two suspects died after being shocked Ernest Graves and Kiethedric Hines. An autopsy shows Graves was on drugs at the time. Hines had drugs and alcohol in his system plus a heart condition. But the administration says it was a warning from the manufacturer that shooting a stun gun at a suspect's chest could lead to cardiac arrest that lead to the taser being pulled.
"Based upon the information that we had we wanted to halt our taser use at that time to be able to re-evaluate," says Deputy Chief Dalke.
More than a year ago Chief Chet Epperson told 13 News he sent officers to Taser International for re-training. Plus guidelines and policies were overhauled on how tasers would be used by Rockford officers. Illinois State Police plan to allow officers to start to carry tasers that also record video when they are used. Deputy Chief Dalke says that would likely be on at least some of Rockford tasers as well, if they are re-issued.
"We've budgeted equipment to bring tasers back up but we are still working on policy development and training development," says Deputy Chief Dalke.
Illinois State Police have no date on when tasers will be used regularly. But they were available to officers during the two weeks the Hells Angels biker group was in town.
The Loves Park and Roscoe Police Departments both allow their officers to carry tasers.

TUCSON, Ariz. (AP) - Authorities in Tucson have arrested a 20-year-old man who's suspected of killing his father.
Pima County Sheriff's officials say Jared Patrick is being held on suspicion of second-degree murder.
Sheriff's deputies were called to a home west of Interstate 10 about 8:30 p.m. Wednesday in reference to a domestic violence incident.
They say 47-year-old Justin Patrick was found lying on the ground in front of the home and wasn't breathing.
He was taken to a Tucson hospital, where he was pronounced dead.
Authorities say Jared Patrick was arrested as he was walking away from the home.
It was unclear Thursday if he has an attorney yet.

Being their debut release, we can?t wait to hear what else they have up their sleeves production wise.
