This review is from: ASUS MAXIMUS VI FORMULA LGA 1150 Intel Z87 HDMI SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.0 ATX gaming board with double-sided ROG Armor, 23C-degrees cooler CrossChill and 120dB SNR, 600ohm audio
Pros: The UEFI on this board is easy to navigate and adjust, there are preset Overclock settings on the uefi as well as ai suite 3 for anyone that is new to OC. The armor on the front looks amazing and gives the board a slick look to it. As far as I can do it does little for heat, the armor on the back however is made of metal and used to provide resistance against board bends when screwing the board to the chassis or trying to implement one of those cheap intel cpu fans (who'd do that).
Cons: Crosschill: This isn't a bad con, and after research its not a huge worry but I do not like that the crosschill block was made using aluminum and not copper, so i have to remove an egg
Other Thoughts: Anyone who wants to watercool using a custom loop should look into the series 7 of this board which has the copper block, if that is not the case, and this board is cheaper I highly recommend the M6FREAD FULL REVIEW
This review is from: Intel Core i5-4570 Haswell Quad-Core 3.2 GHz LGA 1150 84W BX80646I54570 Desktop Processor Intel HD Graphics
Pros: Pretty Fast, stable processor. Low Power consumption when not being taxed.
Cons: none so far
Other Thoughts: I bought this for my new gaming rig to save some money because my last system had an i7 that never stressed itself out on performance. It works great so far, and I can even run some of my games on it with medium settings (i am still waiting for my video card to get shipped out).READ FULL REVIEW
This review is from: Lenovo 15.6" Y500 (59359554) Intel Core i7 3630QM (2.40 GHz) Dual NVIDIA GeForce GT 650M SLI 12 GB Memory 16 GB SSD 1 TB HDD Windows 8 Gaming Laptop
Pros: Light weight, Powerful for its size, great resolution, LED back lit keyboard,
Cons: minimal I/O options, optical drive is replaced with secondary video card (forgivable but not the best design idea), can't really do too much while on battery power which defeats the purpose of having a portable system. I read great reviews on this system which drove me to purchase it and at first it was great until I got to playing games. The New tomb raider would only play on medium settings without any major framerate drops but was still laggy. I then tried some less visually intensive games such as SWTOR and the First Mass Effect and both had low frame rates on high settings. I then tested a game that I know isn't graphically intensive, and booted up a stock WoW account and that even was running slow. I boosted the system power settings and O/C'ed the GPU and adjusted the drivers but received little improvements. Too my surprise though, the system could handle a high Overclocking with little increase to its temperature or system performance. Only the primary GPU is set to run while on battery which makes running games on battery a mute point (id rather have the choice to play a game on the battery and have it run dead as opposed to feeling like i'm locked into having a slimmer smaller desktop).
Other Thoughts: This is more powerful than your average notebook, and probably a great system for the average gamer or somebody who wants to set up a portable media center, but for High end gaming i would not recommend this system.READ FULL REVIEW

Updated at 4:11 p.m. to indicate company today announced total investment in first half of year. The completion of its 4G network was previously announced.
BIRMINGHAM, Alabama – Verizon Wireless invested $49 million in its Alabama wireless network in the first half of the year, the company announced today.
The investment completed the company's 4G LTE network in the state, with 99 percent of the state's population living in areas now covered by the newest-generation cellular network technology.
Verizon has spent $361 million on its Alabama network since 2010 and nearly $1 billion since the company was formed in 2000, said Alabama/Georgia region president Jonathan LeCompte.
Cities added to the 4G network this year include Alexander City, Clanton, Cullman, Demopolis, Hamilton, Russellville and Talladega.
The company today also showed off its Birmingham switch center, allowing the media to tour the facility to which access is tightly controlled.
The center, which handles all of Verizon's voice and data traffic in the region, includes four backup generators for use in the event of a power outage, and two rooms full of batteries that can provide 11 hours of addition service should the generators fail.
The company has never had to use the batteries, said Michael Jenkins, director of network operations.

Hi, welcome to GTA Wiki. Thanks for contributing to the Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas page, and for taking interest in the wiki. Please leave a message on my talk page if I can help with anything, or as alternatives, leave a post on a forum, or refer to the Help pages. -- Spaceeinstein (Talk) 23:08, February 27, 2011
If i take something off a page don't just put it back on, pages should only have one quote at the top. Tom Talk 22:59, April 16, 2011 (UTC)
About the infoboxes
It's fine, the problem is solved, as I just reverted your edits, which means the infoboxes are back to how they were. If you need any help on anything, let me know. Dan the Man 1983 11:46, May 18, 2011 (UTC)
- No worries. Dan the Man 1983 15:42, May 18, 2011 (UTC)
- Don't edit the infoboxes on pages, they are fine as they are. Dan the Man 1983 15:43, May 18, 2011 (UTC)
Hi, I'm Tom, one of the admins here, before I vote on whether or not I think you should be an admin could you tell me which wiki's you've created, thanks :). Tom Talk 09:07, June 13, 2011 (UTC)
Ok, its the experience that matters, I'm assuming your familiar with all the admin stuff. Also to sign your messages put this ~~~~ at the end of the message. Tom Talk 14:07, June 13, 2011 (UTC)
- You're an admin now. Dan the Man 1983 18:19, June 21, 2011 (UTC)
Add a Link
Hey, I am having trouble understanding how to make a link to a word. If you could help me I would really appreciate it.
Thanks for the info. I really appreciate it.
Dragonborn24 00:11, June 25, 2011 (UTC)
We definitely shouldn't get achievements, this wiki has done great for years without them and I don't see any possible profit we could get from them, all they really do is promote achievements boosting which, trust me, is extremely frustrating. Tom Talk 23:46, June 26, 2011 (UTC)
- On a small wiki they're good, but on a wiki of this size with only 5 admins, they're bad. Dan the Man 1983 23:52, June 26, 2011 (UTC)
Request for demotion
I've started a vote for demotion on Chimpso here, please vote and post your thoughts. McJeff (talk this way)/(stalk this way) 06:57, June 27, 2011 (UTC)
Hey, thanks for contacting me about that. The truth is, I honestly don't contribute here anymore (by contribute, I mean editing, images, ect.) but I am still here (hence why I noticed my demotion page) and I check in regularly. If you check my contributions on Grand Theft Wiki, you will see that I have not been particularily active on there either. But I still check in and participate in discussion when needed. Chimpso (Talk) 08:04, June 28, 2011 (UTC)
Hey! I'm still having a little bit of trouble linking words. What if I wanted to link a sentence to a page. what would I do?
Dragonborn24 01:21, June 29, 2011 (UTC)
Yes, it is true. They left mainly cause they did not agree with the new wikia skin, which I respect their decision for. Dan the Man 1983 04:26, July 1, 2011 (UTC)
Well we need some on this wiki, remember to vote on the community noticeboard :). Tom Talk 18:17, July 1, 2011 (UTC)
Thanks :) Tom Talk 19:10, July 1, 2011 (UTC)
Just so you know Gtacrzy had two sockpuppets and was using them to make it look like people supported his views and mainly to annoy another user, he also one of his accounts to vandalise people's userpages, I thought you should know this. Tom Talk 19:12, July 1, 2011 (UTC)
Your Page
Hi. I've just seen those boxes on your user page. I would really like to know how I could have them on my own user page. I've had a look around on pages to find how, but I couldn't find anything about it. It would be of great help if you could tell me how to do this, as I want people to know what I think of the Grand Theft Auto series, and for example, who my favourite protagonist is or what my favourite game of the series is. Please do reply to this. Russelnorthrop 03:18, July 2, 2011 (UTC)
O.K. Thanks alot for that link but how do I actually place them into my profile page? Russelnorthrop 06:00, July 2, 2011 (UTC)
WOW! o.k Thanks alot for your help. I appreciate it. Russelnorthrop 06:58, July 2, 2011 (UTC)
@Bunnyjoke Hi, u forgot to add two more templates (visit my page) that makes the templates more organised. They are Template:Userboxtop and Template:Userboxbottom, at the beginning and at the bottom respectively GTANiKoTalk 12:51, July 2, 2011 (UTC)
It was definitely him. Tom Talk 12:00, July 2, 2011 (UTC)
Liberty City
Liberty City in GTA III era and GTA IV era are completely different because they are different era's, nothing that happened in GTA III era happened in GTA IV era as they have completely different pasts, they are totally different GTA universe's. Tom Talk 17:21, July 3, 2011 (UTC)
I mean that Liberty City in GTA III era and Liberty City in GTA IV era are from completely different GTA universe's, neither one exists in the other era. Tom Talk 17:26, July 3, 2011 (UTC)
there were references to Los Santos and Vice City you may ask how ids this possible well it is the multiverse theory anyone can create parallel universes this is what GTA did but there are 4 GTA universes the first one there were 3 cities Liberty City San Andreas Vice City but by the GTA III Liberty city Vice city were very different from the GTA 1 universe and the biggest difference was San Andreas been a US State and the GTA IV universe is different--Owen1983 17:59, July 3, 2011 (UTC)
No problem ^^ and thanks for your vote GTANiKoTalk 08:50, July 4, 2011 (UTC)
Haha, there are a few extra buttons and more control :D Thanks for the support GTANiKoTalk 18:11, July 4, 2011 (UTC)
I think we should get it, I have it on the L.A. Noire Wiki and its pretty good, I tried to get it for this wiki before but that was when it was still the the beta stages and they were only giving it out to a few wiki's, including the L.A. Noire wiki which I run. Tom Talk 19:08, July 4, 2011 (UTC)
Go for it :). Tom Talk 19:45, July 4, 2011 (UTC)
I sometimes stop and consider about creating Gangstar wiki, but the problem is both of the editions' missions added up increase to 140+, and i can't remember all. Do u play gangstar on iOS? Btw, do u think is flyus or flyu6? GTANiKoTalk 12:57, July 5, 2011 (UTC)
Well, the game is a 3D gta clone on iOS and kind of sucks, but I was thinking of making a wiki out of it, however, I am reluctant to restart both games again, so I need a few who play/played it to help me to create, but that's just a thought. GTANiKoTalk 15:38, July 5, 2011 (UTC)
As for now I doubt so cause I'm quite busy in these few months and i don't have my ipod with me, so, I have to wait. Thanks for your offer, I will inform you of any of my plans GTANiKoTalk 16:01, July 5, 2011 (UTC)
Is there a reason you went to Dan and Tom for help instead of blocking him yourself? You have all the same tools they do. If you don't know how to block I don't mind telling you. McJeff (talk this way)/(stalk this way) 07:02, July 6, 2011 (UTC)
- I just wanted to be sure! They know him better then I do! You do, too! God, I'll never ask to be sure again. I just wanted a second opinion! Bunny J. (Talk) 14:29, July 6, 2011 (UTC)
- Bunny why did you ignore the notice at the top of my talk page? When I start a conversation with you on your talk page, you're supposed to respond to it here so that we don't have to jump from page to page to follow the thread of a conversation. McJeff (talk this way)/(stalk this way) 16:55, July 6, 2011 (UTC)
- Sorry, I forgot. I'm not having a very good day. I'm a little stressed and I guess I forgot to write here. Bunny J. (Talk) 17:06, July 6, 2011 (UTC)
- Bunnyjoke, I suggest you read the Help:Administrators' how-to guide.
- It does look bad when an admin does not know how to block, makes them look incapable of the task of being an admin. Dan the Man 1983 12:15, July 6, 2011 (UTC)
- BE BOLD and just block in future. Dan the Man 1983 18:26, July 6, 2011 (UTC)
thanks for sticking up for me --Owen1983 16:29, July 8, 2011 (UTC)
I forgot his name buts its something like that, anyway what pages was he removing info from? Tom Talk 23:52, July 8, 2011 (UTC)
Fixed Link
Hey, thanks for fixing that link just now, can you tell me how to do that? Leafsfanatic22 04:35, July 9, 2011 (UTC)
Thanks a lot. :)
Bunnyjoke, I am not very pleased about your threats of wheel warring here.
When admins revert each other's admin actions it's called wheel warring, and if you follow through with that threat, then a Bureaucrat does not need permission to take your admin rights away.
Consider this a warning. Dan the Man 1983 21:41, July 9, 2011 (UTC)
How old did you think I was? Tom Talk 21:46, July 10, 2011 (UTC)
I'll take that as a complement :), I'm kind of surprised that your 15 though, I thought you'd be a bit older. Tom Talk 22:21, July 10, 2011 (UTC)
Cause some of the trivia is bunk and does not belong. Dan the Man 1983 23:19, July 10, 2011 (UTC)
- To expand a little on what Dan said, it's not that there's anything wrong with trivia. But lots of people add things about as trivial as "the sky is blue" to them, and some people add wrong stuff. Like today I just deleted from Ray Bulgarin a trivia point that said "His last name is Bulgarian but he's from Russia", which is wrong on multiple levels. Also when there's a trivia section people just add everything to it instead of in the articles, and then you've got one paragraph and a thirty-point trivia list, and that's just ugly and bad writing. McJeff (talk this way)/(stalk this way) 00:34, July 11, 2011 (UTC)
- Actually Jeff, the trivia point said "Bulgarin's surname in Russian means 'Bulgarian', which is ironic because Ray is Russian." which is actually true, Bulgarin is Russian for Bulgarian. I even asked my friend Arkady to confirm haha! Dan the Man 1983 02:43, July 11, 2011 (UTC)
- Thanks for clearing it up. I'm just surprised you're talking to me. Bunny J. (Talk) 00:37, July 11, 2011 (UTC)
- Do you realise or notice GTA wiki is a little more active? GTANiKoTalk 08:51, July 11, 2011 (UTC)
- The only downside is that I have to check on every new person to make sure they make quality edits and are trustable. Do look out for VagosMember17 and Badass Biker, cause the first will cause lots of random numbers and letters and numbers to be written on pages he edits, the second's english must always be corrected GTANiKoTalk 15:17, July 11, 2011 (UTC)
- With leadership comes responsibility :). If you want to be one, you must know what comes in frony. And yes, I have to monitor new users, which is very irritarting, and especially if a bad editor is making rapid edits GTANiKoTalk 10:49, July 12, 2011 (UTC)
I'm sorry but thats pretty funny, I've blocked him from chat now. Tom Talk 18:01, July 11, 2011 (UTC)
Its the first time I've come across anything like that on Wikia, its kind of weird how he didn't stop when you said you were 15 though, If you want to block him from the wiki thats fine by me, at the moment he's just banned from chat. Tom Talk 18:21, July 11, 2011 (UTC)
he didn't
he didn't and I didn't want to give him the chance so I reported him --Owen1983 18:56, July 11, 2011 (UTC)
Has somone dealt with him
Has he been blocked --Owen1983 19:15, July 11, 2011 (UTC)
Watch it with the smiley faces, he might see that as you "kissing my ass" ;). Tom Talk 23:31, July 11, 2011 (UTC)
Hi, to change the FavIcon, you have to create the desired photo (no more than 150kb), save and upload the photo on an icon generator like this, save the photo and upload the file to "Image:Favicon.ico". I got most of this infomation from wikia help so see here too. Hope this helped :) GTANiKoTalk 11:05, July 12, 2011 (UTC)
No problem. No, that's not the problem. It's that when I try uploading the new photo og a G without white background, it is somehow reverted to the original even though the original was already deleted. But do you think the G with white background is okay? GTANiKoTalk 10:47, July 14, 2011 (UTC)
Thanks. I'll see what the community says. by the way, I just created Gangstar Wiki (the gangstar.wikia.com one is crap). Do drop by to help in terms of theme, home page etc. Would you like to be an admin? I would appreciate support :) GTANiKoTalk 15:24, July 14, 2011 (UTC)

Did anyone of you promote him to Moderator? 涼宮ハルヒ(Suzumiya Haruhi) 05:50, July 27, 2011 (UTC)
A few pages need attention...
Hi, on the Billy Grey, Brian Jeremy, and Jim Fitzgerald pages, there is no picture in the infobox. It just says "180px" in small red letters instead of there being a picture. I'm not sure what the problem is, and I dont know how to fix it.
Leafsfanatic22 04:25, July 28, 2011 (UTC)
Ok, cool. I cant figure out how to do stuff like that (I actually have no idea of how to code or upload pictures) as I am just here to fix grammar/spelling/add content as I am a proficient writer.
Leafsfanatic22 04:31, July 28, 2011 (UTC)
Ah, in that case, someone needs to find some NON COPYRIGHTED IMAGES LOL

Welcome message
Can I make a template in the form of a message to put on a new users talkpage and it would welcome them? -Dudebot121256 00:49, July 29, 2011 (UTC)
Hi. Does this wikia and the administrators representing it want quotes at the tops of pages? I've been noticing that there are some characters (Like Mikhail Faustin and Dimitri Rascalov who have quotes on their pages, but the majority of the pages for characters don't. If they want quotes, I will make it a project to get every mission giving character in the GTA IV era quotes, because I think a quote at the top of a page is good.
Cheers, Leafsfanatic22 03:44, July 29, 2011 (UTC)
Yeah, Ill start to do that, because I like quotes.
CheersLeafsfanatic22 04:58, July 29, 2011 (UTC)
Hi, I can't get the comment editor to work. Could you help? Would like to suggest artuiculated lorries from GTA2 and stealable trains like SA. Thanks
That sounds like a great idea :). Tom Talk 15:20, July 30, 2011 (UTC)
Yeah, but since there's no evidence of it being called "Smokey", it's safe to assume it's still part of Bone County. 涼宮ハルヒ(Suzumiya Haruhi) 16:31, July 30, 2011 (UTC)
What does it say on the radar/map when you point to it? We could include it under that area (either in Bone County or LV). 涼宮ハルヒ(Suzumiya Haruhi) 16:39, July 30, 2011 (UTC)
Yes. I'm gonna undelete it (for now), merge it with "Bone County", then delete it again. 涼宮ハルヒ(Suzumiya Haruhi) 16:50, July 30, 2011 (UTC)
Quotes Project
Hey, I am now starting my quotes project, in which I will put a quote for all mission givers in the GTA IV era. I just got back to Canada from Japan and have acess to a PC again. So, I started with Billy Grey. I just wanted to make sure that it looked ok, before I put one on more pages. Cheers Leafsfanatic22 04:37, August 2, 2011 (UTC)
PS: I'm a guy, so 'man' on your last message was right.
Everyone has said yes to the weapon template :) have you started making it yet? Tom Talk 01:10, August 5, 2011 (UTC)
I feel stupid...
I just realised that I didn't add quotation marks on the quotes. I feel stupid. I apologize. I'll fix them before I continue. Leafsfanatic22 03:17, August 6, 2011 (UTC)
ok, I believe I have fixed them all, so now i'll continue on the quote project. Also, do you think that there should be a page for Ray Boccino's associate (The one that was torturing Jim Fitzgerald with a creme brulee torch and was later killed by Jim in Was It Worth It?, becuase I can create it you think that it's a good idea. Cheers, Leafsfanatic22 00:22, August 7, 2011 (UTC)
Ok, I'll probably get around to it tomorrow or the next day. Leafsfanatic22 00:40, August 7, 2011 (UTC)
It looks good :) if you need help then put it up on the noticeboard, I'm sure there's some people who want to help out. Tom Talk 18:20, August 7, 2011 (UTC)
I didn't make it yet, so no harm no foul in changing your mind. I'll focus on the quote project (and remember to add quotation marks haha) Cheers, Leafsfanatic22 20:08, August 7, 2011 (UTC)
Hi, I've tried removing the white background, but in the midst of converting .jpg to .ico, the g becomes too fat, I've tried alternatives, but it's not working. Sorry. Btw thanks for informing me about the wikia contributes on my wiki, I'll update accordingly :) GTANiKoTalk 15:14, August 8, 2011 (UTC)
I've noticed that too, I prefer it when its quiet though, theres less edits to check. Tom Talk 15:56, August 15, 2011 (UTC)
I'm not sure, Bureaucrats can't take away Bureaucrat rights so I'm not sure what happened, I wanted it to say Bureaucrat next to my name on my profile page where it says Admin so I removed my admin rights and apparently that also took away my B'crat rights :). Tom Talk 21:26, August 18, 2011 (UTC)
I like it, its better than the old one. Tom Talk 22:04, August 18, 2011 (UTC)
Racism the Wiki!
Hey Bunny J, how R U...
Now for buisness: you know there is a racist user named User:Ku Klux Clan who is fackin' racist: he call CJ and Luis "niggers" and call Yusuf a terrorist! He also insulted Wonderwaffle and Harushi Suzumiya!
We must 2 stop him, next he will write about Jewish.
The Wiki need some Patrollers.
-- Ilan xd 18:07, August 19, 2011 (UTC)
KKK & Patrollers
I don't think the rules about how to talk to other users apply to scum like that. Anyway you may be interested to know that we're promoting some regular users to Patroller, if you have any suggestions as to who should be a patroller then leave them a message on there talk page asking them to request a promotion :). Tom Talk 23:03, August 19, 2011 (UTC)
- I've just noticed, the guys username is Ku Klux Clan not Ku Klux Klan, he doesn't even know the proper spelling of it. Tom Talk 23:06, August 19, 2011 (UTC)
There aren't any currently, patrollers have rollback rights and are considered staff, while there are some users who are kind of unofficial patrollers we don't have any official ones yet. Tom Talk 23:08, August 19, 2011 (UTC)
He was the first user I suggested it to :) Its pretty likely he'll be our first patroller. Tom Talk 23:13, August 19, 2011 (UTC)
KKK is a Scum
I glad that this scum is blocked! Man, I hate racist mother*uckers. I wish that people like him will BURN ALIVE!. Over the history, racists hurt and insulted millions of people like Jewish, Africans and more.
I afraid that Ku Klux Clan will vandalism Gangstar wiki :(
Thanks. -- Ilan xd 09:34, August 20, 2011 (UTC)
His account isn't deleted, his userpage is, you cannot delete an account, he's still blocked don't worry. Tom Talk 19:05, August 21, 2011 (UTC)
He won't, I just noticed that on your profile it says My occupation is: Wiki editer of course! the correct spelling is editor :). Tom Talk 19:11, August 21, 2011 (UTC)
I don't know but its a good trait to have for a wiki editor :). Tom Talk 20:02, August 21, 2011 (UTC)
Haha ;) Tom Talk 20:04, August 21, 2011 (UTC)
"They Just Coming..."
They making accounts only to have some fun, by vandalize other users pages. This is very bad in these days, because except from you, Tom and Jeff, most of the Admins are inactive.
But soon me and Moon will become Patrollers...(I think)
If you think about more Patrollers check out Leaf and Sasuke, they are good editors. -- Ilan xd 04:56, August 22, 2011 (UTC)
Hey Bunny, you know that there is a user named Martin that always change the status of the Albenians from GTA 4. He think that they are alive. -- Ilan xd 05:32, August 22, 2011 (UTC)
I was at the gym so I missed him by an hour, I checked the wiki before I went though so he timed his vandalism very well. Tom Talk 14:44, August 22, 2011 (UTC)
RE:KKK User
Don't worry, I want to protect the Wiki. We need more Patrollers and I think that Leaf and Sasuke are good editors. Can you help me create a userbox for Israelis, I uploud the flag's image. -- Ilan xd 14:53, August 22, 2011 (UTC)

Thanks!. Say, non-staff users can vote? -- Ilan xd 15:25, August 22, 2011 (UTC)
I mean that if me and Winter Monn can vote? Because we going to be patrollers(see the votes) and I saw that a non-staff user named Owen also voted in past. -- Ilan xd 15:31, August 22, 2011 (UTC)
I will wait until I'll become a stuff, and dude, I think that Wcrolas990 and Gregallz5 started an edit war about Misty. -- Ilan xd 15:59, August 22, 2011 (UTC)

Hey, I was looking online for the jazz GTA3 theme and I found another GTA fan-site called http://www.igrandtheftauto.com/ and they have the all the themes from all the GTA games for download along with the Pricedown font and the Vice City font for download also. I was wondering if the Wiki could have something like also. It would be cool if we could have an obvious link to a Download page from the Main Page.
Ok, thanks! Falling Rocks 20:57, August 22, 2011 (UTC)

Hi, I recieved your message about possibly being a patroller. I've given it some thought and I will regretfully have to decline. I think ILAN XD is a really good patroller. My school year starts soon and I have a really hard first semester and I am afraid that I won't have the time. I am perfectly content with my current role of editing to make this wikia better. I am flattered however, and its good to know that someone appreciates my efforts to make this wikia a better place. Again, I am very happy with the vote of confidence but I will have to decline the offer. Cheers, Leafsfanatic22 00:07, August 23, 2011 (UTC)

Thats hardly brilliant, pathetic is a better word for it, i'm currently fighting the urge to leave a message expressing my opinions of him and his racist sceme. Anyway its not like his Gangbanger account was making any edits, he requested a promotion, argued with himself and thats it, anyway hopefully that will be the end of that.

A Middletown man who is under a death sentence for murdering his family can't have more than a dozen sex crime charges purged from his criminal record, the state Superior Court ruled Friday.
The state court's ruling upholds a decision Dauphin County Judge John F. Cherry issued a year ago, refusing to cleanse Ernest R. Wholaver Jr.'s record of charges that he had molested his two daughters.
Wholaver, now 53, was convicted of three counts of first-degree murder for killing his daughters Elizabeth, 15, and Victoria, 20, along with his estranged wife Jean, 43, at their house on Christmas Eve in 2002. Prosecutors said Wholaver committed the murders to keep the victims from testifying that he had repeatedly raped his daughters.
Wholaver was acquitted of the sex charges during the same 2004 trial that saw him convicted of the murders.
In 2012, he petitioned the county court to expunge the charges, which include rape, aggravated indecent assault, involuntary deviate sexual intercourse, indecent assault and sexual assault, from his criminal record.
First Assistant District Attorney Fran Chardo adamantly opposed the expungement plea, arguing that keeping those counts on Wholaver's record is vital should he ever be awarded a new trial in the homicide case.
Although Wholaver was acquitted on the counts, the sex crime charges form the basis for the prosecution's argument that Wholaver killed his relatives to shut them up, Chardo noted.
Cherry agreed with the prosecutor in his January 2013 ruling denying Wholaver's expungement petition.
In the Superior Court opinion upholding Cherry's decision, Judge Jacqueline O. Shogan agreed that the "evidence of the sexual crimes is inextricably tied to the murders" and so must be left on Wholaver's record.
Wholaver also is appealing his murder convictions and death sentence. Cherry held a hearing on that appeal in September, but has yet to rule on it.

The Cougars were looking different on Wednesday. They were different because this was the day that marked Dan Moreno's return to the starting rotation. Moreno had shoulder surgery in the fall and was limited to first base duties only. Last year Moreno was the winningest pitcher and was the big game pitcher for the Cougars. Some games that he was featured in were the Union County Tournament and the Group 3 State Title game. Moreno finished last year with an 8-3 record as a junior. He was also an All Union County player.
It was time to kick off his Senior campaign and he did that in quite a fashion. He went five strong innings giving up 6 hits and no earned runs. Cranford went on to win 12-2 and forced the mercy rule.
Moreno was given more than enough run support and also helped his own cause by going 2 for 4 with a double. Other hitters included Rob Colaneri who went 2 for 3, Adam Fanelli who went 2 for 3, and Mike Tubelli who went 1 for 2. The man who accounted for half of Cranford's rbis was the great Andrew Ciencin(Union County Player of the Year). Ciencin went 4 for 4. All he needed was some bread because he was able to touch them all with the very exciting GRAND SALAMI. He raised his average to.511 in the game too. In all Cranford totaled 12 hits.
With the Cougars winning they gave Dennis McCaffery his 200th career win. Some fascinating points of his career include playing in the minors for 2 years and being the assistant coach for the 1997 Cranford State Championship team. McCaffery took the head coaching job in 1999 and has totaled a record of 200-67. (As of Sat. May 3rd. it was 201-67) Mcaffery has led Cranford to 5 sectional titles and three births in the Group Final. Last year he lead a magical season as Cranford went 26-5 but lost to Seneca in the State final. Because of his efforts he was awarded the honor of State Coach of the Year. Right now McCaffery is leading even more magic as Cranford is #3 in Union County and will be appearing in another State Final. Maybe this year will be even more special as Cranford wins the State final?

South Kitsap High School dealing with scabies concern
The South Kitsap School District reported 15 students have been diagnosed with scabies.
According to Communications Specialist Amy Miller there are currently 26 which have developed a rash and itching type symptoms. Of the 26, nine did not have scabies and one is being evaluated, as of Tuesday afternoon.
South Kitsap High School notified the Public Health Department when three cases were identified as required by health department rules and regulations.
South Kitsap High School officials posted and emailed a letter on its website Oct. 31 to parents following the report of students displaying symptoms of scabies, Miller said. She said the same letter was sent home with students on Nov. 1.
"Communication was sent out as soon as the three diagnosed cases were known in hopes of other students coming forward for identification and referral for treatment," Miller said.
Miller said the entire high school building was cleaned and disinfected on Oct. 24.
"Custodial staff has increased disinfection and wiped down the common areas throughout the school," Miller stated in a news release.
Scabies is a severe, itchy skin infestation caused by a mite that burrows in the skin surface.
The first symptom is itching, especially at night. Then little red bumps like tiny bites or pimples appear. Scabies is spread by skin-to-skin contact and the contact may be as brief as holding hands.
Miller said school administrators continue to take normal precautions of washing hands, using disinfecting wipes on equipment used by students, and ensuring basic cleanliness for all colds, flus and infections.
More information and links to the Center for Disease Control are posted on the SKSD website.

Three Vintages—One Wine
Ensemble Cellars is dedicated to the production of just one wine, "THE WINE" which is the culmination of three years of effort from three successive vintages, (except for Release Number One, a blend of two vintages). Our approach utilizes only the best French Oak Barrels to produce only Cabernet Sauvignon dominated Bordeaux blends. This means we will blend other Bordeaux varietals such as Merlot, Cabernet Franc, Dedicated...to small lot production of Cabernet Sauvignon based blends of Bordeaux varietals. Each release is handcrafted, orchestrating quality fruit grown on unique sites from different vintages with 100% French Oak to achieve layered complexity, balance, and a polished structure. Our approach is similar to composing a beautiful symphony by blending instrumentation, musical themes and styles with balanced perfection. Craig Nelsen, Winemakerand/or Petite Verdot with Cabernet Sauvignon using only the best barrels of wine produced. Only the highest quality fruit from unique vineyards in Washington State are chosen.
We are committed to handcrafting small "lots" totaling less than 500 cases per year.
Among the vineyards we have chosen to feature in our blends are Dubrul, Lodmell, and Neuffer. Dubrul Vineyards is located in the Yakima Valley Appelation and provides fruit with bright cherry notes and good acidity from a beautiful site. Lodmell Vineyards is located on bluffs above the Snake River in Walla Walla County and provides concentrated dark fruit flavors, firm tannins, and good acidity along with a unique "spice" quality. Neuffer Vineyards in the Walla Walla Valley Appellation offers rich fruit flavors, good balance, and a wonderful Cabernet Franc. Along with these vineyards we typically will add three to four small "lots" of fruit from other quality vineyards to increase complexity and depth in the flavor profile.
Each year winemaker Craig Nelsen carefully selects the fruit needed to achieve the wine style he desires, balancing the characteristics of each vintage with each "release" blend. The balance between new and neutral French Oak and the matching of the right barrel producer with each "lot" of fruit to realize the desired flavor nuance is one of the keys to success.
Every spring the very best barrels of wine from the current vintage are selected. Some of this wine is blended with the previous "VINTAGE" barrels and the current RELEASE barrels (that had been held back) to produce the optimum blend possible. As you might imagine, the possibilities are endless, but at some point "THE WINE" jumps out of the glass and says "I am the one!!!"
Following our spring blending trials we may keep some barrel "lots" separate for blending later, depending on how they develop. Beginning with our RELEASE NUMBER TWO each release will include wine aged approximately 12 mos., 24 mos., and 36 mos. in French Oak.

The former Syracuse University guard was not selected in the NBA Draft and has yet to receive an offer from an NBA team to play this summer.
However, his agent, Chris Grier Luchey, said several pro teams in Europe have expressed interest.
"We've been hearing from certain teams for some time," Luchey said. "There's definitely interest there. We're just weighing Eric's options."
Devendorf averaged 15.7 points and made 39 percent of his 3-point attempts last season for the Orange.
Luchey said it was not a shock to him or Devendorf when he wasn't drafted.
"Eric understood that," Luchey said. "Eric has NBA talent. He just has some challenges to overcome."
Those "challenges" would be Devendorf's off-the-court issues, which resulted in SU's student appeals board placing him on probation twice.
Now he is hoping to hear from an NBA team about a spot on its summer-league entry. The goal, said Luchey, would be to make an NBA team's roster. But an additional benefit would be the chance to play this summer in front of scouts from European teams.
"Many European teams emphasize the NBA's summer leagues," Luchey said. "A lot of signings come out of summer league."
Luchey said Devendorf could eventually have to decide whether to accept a standing offer from a team overseas or chase the NBA dream by playing in the NBA Development League. The difference could be a six-figure deal in Europe versus $20,000 in the D-League.
"There's no science to this thing," Luchey said. "You go through each phase and you determine what makes sense."

Results tagged ' Giants '
Uggla a possibility in Baltimore
Count the Orioles in the mix for Dan Uggla.
Among the teams the Marlins have had at least preliminary discussions about Uggla are the Orioles.
The Marlins are believed to be seeking pitching prospects in return for their two-time All-Star second baseman.
Along with Baltimore, the Giants remain interested in the 29-year-old who is coming off a season where he belted 31 home runs and drove in 90.
With Brian Roberts at second base in Baltimore, Uggla would be a candidate to switch to third base, a position he hasn't played in four big league seasons. Uggla played third base in the Minor Leagues.
Indications at the Winter Meetings were that Uggla will wind up with an American League club, unless a deal with the Giants can be worked out. There also is a feeling that there aren't too many club seriously interested in Uggla, a former Rule 5 claim from Arizona.
Ideally, the Marlins would like to deal Uggla at the Winter Meetings, but the team is prepared to hang on to the slugger for at least a few more weeks if their isn't a fit that makes sense.
Earlier in the day on Monday, Orioles president of baseball operations Andy MacPhail said the team had not yet had discussions with the Marlins about Uggla.
Marlins officials arrived in Indianapolis later in the afternoon and in the early evening, and the organization began measuring interest in Uggla later in the night.
The Marlins also are in discussions with multiple clubs, as many as 10, for relievers Renyel Pinto and Matt Lindstrom.
— Joe Frisaro
Report: Uggla wants to remain at second
Dan Uggla is a two-time All-Star second baseman who has already placed his name in the record books.
By belting 31 homers in 2009, Uggla is the first player in MLB history to reach 30 homers in three straight years in which he played at least 100 games at second base.
With that kind of track record, Uggla sees himself as a second baseman. And he has little desire to switch positions, according to his agent, Jeff Borris.
Borris on Friday told Yahoo! Sports' Tim Brown that his client wants to stay at second base.
"Danny Uggla's been a full-time second baseman for the last four years," Borris told Yahoo! Sports columnist. "He's performed exceptionally well at that position. Although he has the athleticism to play other positions, he's performed remarkably over these four years at second base and there should be no reason to consider a position change at this time."
In his second season of arbitration, Uggla's salary is slated to rise for the $5.35 million he made this year.
At this week's General Managers Meetings, the Marlins had conversations with several clubs about Uggla. The Giants reportedly would like to add Uggla and switch him to third base. The Red Sox would consider Uggla in left field. The Orioles also reportedly have interest.
The Nationals, too, are a team that could enter into the mix. So may the Diamondbacks, the team that drafted Uggla in 2001. Former Marlins third base coach, Bo Porter, has now joined the Arizona staff.
Uggla has 121 career home runs, and he is building his legacy at second base. He has not played any other position in the big leagues besides second.
— Joe Frisaro
Inquires into Uggla
Due for a hefty pay raise, it was expected that the Marlins would measure interest for two-time All-Star Dan Uggla.
On Wednesday, a few possibilities emerged.
According to FoxSports.com, the Giants and Orioles have expressed interest in Uggla. The Red Sox reportedly also may be an option.
The Giants, the report said, may consider Uggla as an option to play third base. The thinking is Pablo Sandoval would swift from third to first base. Uggla has exclusively played second base in the big leagues, although he had some work at third base in the Minor Leagues in 2005.
If Uggla, who will see his salary raise from $5.35 million to around $7 million, is dealt, the Marlins may be more inclined to keep Jorge Cantu, according to the FoxSports.com.
The Red Sox would consider Uggla as an option for left field.
Look for the Nationals also to show interest in Uggla.
— Joe Frisaro
Marlins offense — A big hit
Their winning streak may have come to an end on Wednesday night, but the Marlins' offense remains a big hit.
In their 14-6 loss to the Astros at Land Shark Stadium, the Marlins collected 13 hits, which extends their franchise-record to nine straight games with at least 10 hits.
The streak is the longest of any team in the Major Leagues this year.
From Sept. 6-14, 2008, the Giants had a string of nine games in a row.
The previous Marlins mark was six, last done Aug. 13-19, 2000.
Hanley Ramirez, leading the National League with a .351 batting average, has hit safely in eight straight games. Rookie Chris Coghlan extended his hitting streak to 11 games with an RBI single in the eighth inning.
— Joe Frisaro
Lindstrom still closing … for now
It wasn't a ringing endorsement, but it was an endorsement, just the same.
Marlins closer Matt Lindstrom was relieved with the bases loaded and two outs on Saturday night, and ultimately Leo Nunez worked out of the jam in a 5-4 win over the Giants at Land Shark Stadium.
Even though Lindstrom is 11 of 13 in save chances, and he's recorded eight straight saves, the hard-throwing right-hander has struggled with command.
He walked two and filled the bases before handing the ball over to Nunez, who now has two saves this year.
Asked afterwards if there were a save situation on Sunday, who would get the ball? Gonzalez answered at that specific time — after 11 p.m. ET on Saturday — it likely would be Lindstrom.
Obviously, that is subject to change. And there is a catch with the question.
Gonzalez directly answered the specific question — who would close on Sunday? Well, Nunez likely won't be available on Sunday because he's pitched in three straight games. So that could play in Lindstrom's favor.
The unanswered question is: What happens if all things are equal?
Another possibility is Kiko Calero, who has been heavily used in a seventh inning setup role.
Ultimately, Gonzalez may play the matchups or who has the hot hand. The Marlins could have the makings of a committee situation.
Lindstrom clearly has the talent to close. It's a matter of him finding the consistency.
Gonzalez made this much clear after the game: "My responsibility as a manager is to 25 guys, and the Florida Marlins, not just one guy. We're trying to get the win for the club."
— Joe Frisaro
Manufacturing runs
When you strand 12 runs on base and lose 2-1, it magnifies the importance of situational hitting.
The Marlins endured a frustrating one-run loss on Friday night against the Giants at Land Shark Stadium.
Jorge Cantu was up with the bases loaded and two outs against hard-throwing Brian Wilson. Cantu grounded out to short.
Manager Fredi Gonzalez said the team constantly preaches the importance of situational hitting, but points out the opposing pitcher has a lot of say in how the game turns out.
"We talk about it all the time, putting the ball in play and all that stuff," Gonzalez said. "We preach it in batting practice."
Obviously, not all the results are going to pan out. You're not always going to get that timely, two-out, walkoff hit.
Outfielder Cody Ross says it is tough to completely teach hitting in certain situations.
"In BP, we'll sometimes work on situations," Ross said. "Sometimes [hitting coach Jim] Presley will call out a situation with less than two outs — infield in or infield back. That's what it comes to, working on situations. It's really tough to work on. You have to put it in your mind when you get in those situations to do the best job that you can."
Bottom line, Ross says, is finding a way.
"It's a matter of getting it done," he said. "That sometimes separates being a really good big leaguer and being an average big leaguer. It's you thrive on situations when the game is on the line, and you get the job done."
While the Marlins are coming off a 2-1 loss, the fact remains they still are generating their share of offense.
Heading into Saturday night, the Marlins were fourth of 16 National League teams in runs scored with 259.
The first four in runs scored in the NL are the Dodgers (300), Phillies (293), Rockies (266) and Marlins.
— Joe Frisaro
Rabelo, Hayes optioned
The Marlins worked into the early morning hours to solidify their catching situation.
Early Saturday morning, they obtained Ronny Paulino from the Giants for pitching prospect Hector Correra. Late Friday, Paulino was dealt from the Phillies to San Francisco.
About seven hours later, the Marlins announced that catchers Mike Rabelo and Brett Hayes have been optioned to Triple-A New Orleans.
Paulino will serve as John Baker's backup.

Moves on the horizon?
It didn't take long for the Ronny Paulino situation to resolve itself. Indeed, Paulino was the odd catcher out in Philadelphia. While the Marlins didn't dismiss the prospect of bringing him in, they didn't pursue him that hard either.
On Friday night it was announced that Paulino was dealt to the Giants for lefty reliever Jack Taschner.
Taschner, meanwhile, fit the bill for what the Marlins were looking for, a lefty with big league service time.
With so few catching options out there, expect the Marlins to go with Mike Rabelo or Brett Hayes as John Baker's backup.
Other catching candidates who project to be available include Adam Melhuse, who isn't part of the Rangers plans.
There isn't much out there, barring trying to make a significant trade.
The Marlins appear to be in the market for a veteran left-handed bat off the bench to serve as a pinch-hit, spot starter option. And lefty relief help is high on the list.
— Joe Frisaro
Eyes on Pudge
As expected, a lot of scouts are on hand for the World Baseball Classic in Miami.
On the Ivan Rodriguez front, the Marlins remain a frontrunner, but there definitely is competition. The Twins, with Joe Mauer getting a second opinion on a back ailment, is a team that has interest.
If Mauer is only out for a little bit, though, they may not be a favorite to land Pudge. The Astros have a need behind the plate, but indications are Houston's front office isn't as interested.
The Marlins are well positioned, and the team is definitely following him closely in the Classic.
— Joe Frisaro

|[TowerTalk] Low elevation Falls/Senior Citizens
|"Pat Barthelow" <email@example.com>
|Sun, 16 Sep 2007 13:59:34 -0700
Folks: While working on my modest backyard tower today, I had the pleasure of having a wonderful emergency room Nurse, of exceptional experience, helping as ground crew. Among other things, we talked about the dangers of falls while working in the air, and I casually commented with a guess, that Susan, (my RN ground crew) probably sees pretty regular fall injury admissions to the emergency room. Even if just off ladders, and at small fall distances. Susan nodded somberly, and said "yes... and you know who we get most often falling from ladders, etc? Senior Citizens who need to clean out their roof gutters, and do it themselves, to try to save the cost of professionals to do the work." With their limited budgets, that is not surprising. I imagine a senior citizen's major fall from a ladder or roof is quite a profound life changing event, even life and death, sometimes. It may be the case that a number of TT members are/ or may know of service groups (Rotary Club, Lions, Kiwanis, etc) that might want to provide services to senior citizens. You might approach these service clubs, or you yourself might want to volunteer to help out a senior citizen, avoid a possibly life changing fall, doing home maintenance....You might save a life or two.

MUNCIE, Ind. (RTV6) -- Many of Ball State University's 18,000 students are facing Friday evening and Saturday classes to make up for two days of courses canceled by extreme cold this month.
Despite the university's efforts, many students aren't happy about the plans and have started an online petition to challenge the make-up days.
Ball State officials called off classes Jan. 6-7 on the Muncie campus as wind chills reached about 35 degrees below zero. Those were the first two days of Ball State's spring semester, while Indiana and Purdue universities didn't start classes until the following week.
Ball State Provost Terry King tells The Star Press the makeup times are the least disruptive. King says other options were to extend the semester or take time away from spring break.
The students' petition had nearly 800 signatures by Friday morning. The students argue that many of them have weekend jobs and needed an advance notice to schedule off from work. Other students said they didn't want to give up their weekend to make up classes.
University officials said the federal government requires a certain amount of credit hours per semester and that the days must be made up.
The classes will be made up during the Friday evenings of Jan. 31 and Feb. 7 and the Saturdays of Feb. 1 and Feb. 8.

Gun control proposals spark showdown in Harrisburg
HARRISBURG, Pa. - It was a showdown at Pennsylvania's Capitol in Harrisburg.
Two sides were fired up over a raging gun debate. Dueling rallies were held Wednesday, hoping to attract the attention of state lawmakers.
Inside the Capitol, CeaseFirePA was gunning for action and demanding for what they called, "common sense gun laws."
"We think gun violence is out of hand and we don't want to see people die," said Kyle Bostian, who wants to see some controls so guns don't fall into the wrong hands.
Outside the Capitol, Pennsylvania Responsible Citizens defended the right to defend themselves.
"To me, the gun is an ultimate symbol of freedom," said Tom Coulson, who wants the Second Amendment protected.
"Don't Punish Law Abiding Citizens" and "Demand Action Now" were two of many signs visible during the local debate over gun control. The rallies come amidst the aftermath of the massacre last month at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown, Conn.
"We've seen a lot of energy since Newtown and a lot of concern that people want to see something done," said Shira Goodman, executive director of CeaseFirePA.
Goodman called it a day of action to fight gun violence. Hundreds gathered as victims told their personal stories of heartbreak.
An hour before, gun supporters vowed to fight to protect the second amendment.
At the center of the gun rallies, Pennsylvania's largest outdoor gun show scheduled to start Feb. 2 in Harrisburg. Many praised the show for banning the display and sale of assault weapons, but gun enthusiasts called for a boycott.
"I'm really proud of those organizations, manufacturers and retailers that have pulled out," said one gun supporter.
Last week, President Obama issued an executive order banning assault weapons and strengthening penalties for illegal gun trafficking.
Gun control is in the spotlight, and both sides said this is only the beginning. One side argued it is time to trigger change, while the called for enforcement of current laws, not new ones.

Some stellar names are attached to Le Chat Noir's Seventh Annual New Plays Festival, Nov. 14-23. And none is starrier than New Orleans native and Tony Award-winning actress-writer Mary Louise Wilson. The veteran stage, film, TV and cabaret star won the 2007 Tony for best featured actress in a musical, for playing Edith Bouvier Beale in "Grey Gardens." Among other credits, she co-wrote (with Mark Hampton) and starred as Diana Vreeland in the one-woman show "Full Gallop."
Wilson's Le Chat play, "Lost," concerns two women with failing-since-Katrina memories who have a car accident. "It is very, very funny," said Carl Walker, who will direct all of the playlets in the festival, each pertaining to New Orleans and none longer than 15 minutes.
"Lost" will star two of the best actresses in the city, Carol Sutton and Clare Moncrief, who have never before appeared together.
The festival also boasts works by R.J. Tsarov, our local king of stage kink; Bud Faust of "Beautiful Bastards" and "Guy Camaro" fame; and Jamie Wax, who wrote and starred in "Goin' to Jackson."
Tsarov's play, "Cheffing," is an excerpt from a longer work with the same title. The chef at Delachaise, he was inspired by his experiences working "backstage" at several restaurants.
"No one would believe the language used at these citadels of cuisine," Tsarov said. "It's the filthiest, most foul-mouthed I've ever heard." He paused. "Yet it has a kind of music to it." The excerpt deals with a sous chef and a line cook."It's David Mamet to the 10th power," Walker said.
Wax's play, "The Cutley Papers," is also an adaptation of a full-length play. The main character is an abused woman who discovers a passion for writing, which her husband tries to stop, although she keeps writing, even on toilet paper with an eyebrow pencil while locked in the bathroom.
Faust's "To Hell and Back (Somewhat)" involves a sleazy Hollywood producer who wants to make a movie in and about New Orleans that would use the city as a metaphor for Hades. "I'm very proud," Faust said, "that I've managed to work in a stripper and a Komodo dragon."
Andrew Farrier, a Tulane University theater student, has written "Good Children," which he says "is about an upper-class New Orleans woman trying to get out of town before a hurricane hits. She meets a guy who has just train-hopped into town and another character who is a naive, ambitious crawfish, who doesn't know that New Orleans eats folks like him, and turns revolutionary."
Bradley Troll's "Contraflow" is "an absurdist, expressionist kind of piece," the playwright says, involving a man trying to get back his test results from a doctor's office before evacuating ahead of a storm and a "weird woman" who won't let him have them. "¤'Think Twilight Zone,'¤" Walker said.
University of New Orleans grad Jason Cutler's "Bourbon" concerns an inebriated tourist who wanders far afield from the French Quarter and into a confrontation with a resident who puts him in his place.
There will also be pieces by a pseudonymous playwright and ones by the fest's artistic directors, Gabrielle Reisman and Pat Bourgeois.
"I'm hoping to use Gabrielle's as a wrap-around piece," Walker said. "This evening will be like an anthology of short stories."
Wax and the great Vernel Bagneris will be part of the cast. Other actors and a full schedule will be announced shortly.
For more information or to put your name on a reservations list, call 504.581-5812.
MORE 'GERSHWIN' AT LE CHAT: There's a one-show hold-over performance of "He Loves and She Loves: The Gershwin Music We Love" Sunday at 6 p.m. at Le Chat Noir. The "We" refers to sublime singer Amy Alvarez and piano man par excellence Jefferson Turner, performing 34 Gershwin tunes, all but two with lyrics by brother Ira Gershwin.

Call 504.581.5812 for reservations.

Two enter pleas in East Hill drug deal gone bad
A Kent man and a Renton man each pleaded not guilty Tuesday morning in Kent to first-degree robbery charges in connection with an alleged drug deal gone bad Jan. 15 near a Kent apartment complex.
The two were among three or four men who reportedly stole marijuana from a man who lived at an East Hill apartment complex in the 11300 block of Southeast Kent-Kangley Road.
Robert T. Sims, 18, of Kent, and Carl DaWayne Goodwin Jr., 22, of Renton, each pleaded not guilty to a first-degree robbery charge at their arraignments at King County Superior Court in Kent, according to an e-mail from Dan Donohoe, spokesman for the Prosecuting Attorney's Office.
Sims was released on personal recognizance Tuesday afternoon by a judge, and was ordered to have no contact with the Kent apartment resident, witnesses, co-defendants, or the apartment complex. Sims is not permitted to have weapons, must stay in school and have no further law violations. Bail had been set at $20,000 for Sims, after prosecutors filed charges Jan. 21.
Goodwin remained in custody Wednesday at the Norm Maleng Regional Justice Center in Kent in lieu of $115,000 bail.
Sims and Goodwin are scheduled to return to court Feb. 9 when a trial date could be set or attorneys from either side could ask for more time to prepare the cases.
Prosecutors also have charged a 17-year-old male teen with second-degree robbery in King County Juvenile Court in connection with the East Hill robbery. The teen is being held at a juvenile detention center in Seattle. He faces a hearing Feb. 8 before a judge to determine whether he should be prosecuted as an adult, Donohoe said.
Kent detectives have talked to a fourth person who also might have played a role in the incident, said Sgt. Bob Burwell in a phone interview Wednesday. Burwell said what, if any role, that person played during the robbery remains under investigation.
According to charging papers, the apartment resident had agreed to meet the men to sell them drugs.
Inside the apartment, Goodwin reportedly pointed a handgun at the resident and took cash and marijuana from him before he fled the apartment.
The apartment resident then chased Goodwin on foot. Goodwin reportedly turned around and fired shots him. Not hit by the shots, the apartment resident continued to chase Goodwin, and fired a shot from a shotgun into the air in an effort to get Goodwin to stop running, according to reports. Goodwin kept running and was later caught by Kent Police. Police found Goodwin carrying a plastic bag with 90 grams of marijuana.
The apartment resident spotted Sims, yelled at him to stop, which Sims did, and held him at gunpoint until police arrived. Sims told detectives that he played the role of a lookout during the incident and did not enter the apartment unit with Goodwin.
Sims has no prior record.
According to charging papers, Goodwin has prior felony convictions for possession with intent to deliver cocaine in 2006 and 2007 and failure to appear in court Jan. 7 on a pending drug matter. Goodwin also has juvenile convictions for possession of marijuana in 2005, fourth-degree assault in 2002 and 2004, obstruction in 2002, second-degree robbery in 2002, third-degree theft in 2002 and first-degree theft in 2001.
The Jan. 15 incident shut down Kent-Kangley for a period of time, and also resulted in the temporary lockdown of three adjacent public schools: Daniel Elementary, the Kent Phoenix Academy and Kent-Meridian High School.
