KETCHIKAN (AP) -- Bail for a Ketchikan man charged with second-degree murder was reduced Monday.
Brock Charles, 38, is accused of beating Gordon Rasnick, 50, to death on Christmas Eve.
At the bail hearing, Ketchikan Superior Court Judge Trevor Stephens approved a third-party custodian for Charles and lowered the bail from $250,000 to $25,000. Charles' attorney, Darrel Gardner of the Office of Public Advocacy, said Charles' mother, Louise Charles, expected to post bail.
Louise Charles will have to supervise her son 24 hours a day and make sure he obeys all laws, stays in Ketchikan, does not drink alcohol, has no contact with witnesses and maintains an 8 p.m. to 7 a.m. curfew.
District Attorney Steve West objected to Louise Charles as a custodian. He said she lives in a duplex and crimes have occurred in the other half of the home.
Stephens set a Nov. 12 trial date.

Jeep JK Oil burning
By cmik10121 on
Vehicle2007 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited Sahara 4dr SUV 4WD (3.8L 6cyl 6M)
Review2007 4 door 4x4 automatic V6.
This thing is a slug off road and in town.
Freeway speeds 70 MPH plus it feels like it is at home.
Trail rated....ha.
Burns about a quart of oil every 1000 miles since 22000 miles. Got 58000 now and seems to be getting worse.
It always has clean oil in it cause you have to add so much. No smoke, no drips on garage floor, no visible oil on the engine of underneath the jeep.
Chrysler says it is normal and will do nothing about it.
I got other vehicles with over 200K miles and might burn 1/2 quart 7500 miles.
Not satisfied with this and will never buy another Chrysler product again.
I wish someone else owned it...
Search internet...comon problem.
Best FeaturesLooks good.
Worst FeaturesFix the engine so it does not burn so much oil. Engine needs more pep for a 4x4. Improve cheap interior materials (dash and other areas) scratch easily. Fix rattles - mine sounds like there is a couple of thick peices of steal inside the body bouncing round when you cross rail road tracks. Way to many RECALLS...I had it at the dealer 12 times for recalls. If I had know all this...never would have purchase this unit... dealer has been no help at all with problems.

Wiggles' Celebration Tour stops at Oakdale Theatre
Published 4:29 pm, Thursday, August 9, 2012
After the 2012 tour, the original Wiggles' lineup will be no more.
But this band of four merry Australian men -- arguably the world's most famous children's entertainment group -- says it is content with its plans to reshape the group. Nay, it is ecstatic.
To prove the point, the group has embarked on a Celebration Tour, which comes to Toyota Presents Oakdale, in Wallingford, on Tuesday afternoon, Aug. 14.
Following 21 years of globe-trotting and performing for preschoolers and their families, Red Wiggle Murray Cook, 52, Purple Wiggle Jeff Fatt, 59, and Yellow Wiggle Greg Page, 40, have decided the time is right to hang up their signature brightly colored long-sleeved jerseys (and black trousers) for less recognizable togs.
In 2013, group founder Blue Wiggle Anthony Field, 49, will be joined by the first female Wiggle, Emma Watkins, and new Wiggles Lachlan Gillespie and Simon Pryce.
Page says the group's international fan base is made up of "children aged 18 months to 5 years, but we have a LOT of older (and younger) fans too," he wrote in an email interview.
The Wiggles estimate that in the United States alone, they have a fan base of more than 1.5 million. They perform about 200 shows annually on four continents; their television show is broadcast in more than 100 countries.
And if that isn't impressive enough, the gang has sold about 25 million DVDs and videos, 7 million CDs and 8 million books in the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom, Australia and New Zealand.
Since 2008, the four Wiggles have served as UNICEF Goodwill Ambassadors, focusing on numeracy, literacy and proper sanitation.
How did it all start? In college, where Field, Cook and Page met while studying early childhood education at Sydney's Macquarie University. The three began writing children's songs with the hope that they might actually be employable after finishing college.
For additional help, they turned to Fatt, who had performed with Field in the 1980s band, The Cockroaches. And thus, the Wiggles were hatched.
And now a chapter is ending with the Celebration Tour, and the Sydney-based group wants to party, party party with fans, Page wrote.
Q: When did you sense that the Wiggles had tapped into something wonderful?
A: I think we always knew that we were onto something (that) was different and unique. We didn't really get the sense that it was really going to be as big as it was until we broke into the United States market. That was around 1999. We had been quite big in Australia for a number of years, but it took some time to work our way over to the U.S. When we did though, we were received in such a welcoming way by the people here, that we knew that we were onto something really special.
Q: Why do you think the Wiggles' popularity extends across ethnic, religious, racial, economic and political divides?
A: The Wiggles' appeal lies in its direct approach to children based on solid, early childhood educational principles. The main aim of the Wiggles is to provide developmentally appropriate entertainment to children. This means speaking to children on their level, not speaking down to them or patronizing them, engaging them through empowerment, and making sure that song content and melodies are appropriate for the age-group we are entertaining (which parents appreciate).
Q: Tell me about the decision to move on? Was it difficult?
A: The decision to retire is different for me than for Jeff and Murray. When I was asked to return to the group this year (after a medical leave), it was only ever going to be for a short period of time. In fact, I am staying on longer so that I can finish with Murray and Jeff, who decided to retire after my return this year. I have a young family (four kids at home under the age of 10) and was content to return for a period of time this year so I could have the chance to perform with my founding mates once more. Now that they are stepping down from performing, it seemed like the best decision for us all to finish at the same time.
Q: What's the inside scoop on the Celebration Tour?
A: The show will include songs from the whole 21 years of the Wiggles' history. For anyone who has been to a Wiggles show before (knows), it will involve a lot of audience participation, colour, movement, dancing and songs. It really is like a rock concert for children!
Q: Will your yellow jersey be retired?
A: Emma, the first female Wiggle, will don the yellow jersey. The great thing is that the new Wiggles have different skills and talents to the original Wiggles. They will not be trying to replicate or imitate what we have done as Wiggles, but rather just carry on the tradition of entertaining children in the same way that we have for 21 years."

UFC 151: It's Wrong to Blame Jon Jones for Canceled CardAugust 24, 2012
With the whirlwind of anger being directed at Jon Jones following UFC 151 being deleted from existence, only one question comes to my mind: Was Jones told that his declining to fight Chael Sonnen would cost the fans and fellow fighters the entire 151 card?
It is a very important question to ask before you blame the light heavyweight champion for the loss of an entire event.
Selfish decision or not, Jones has the right to accept or decline a fight at anytime. He signed to fight Dan Henderson, and Henderson got hurt. That leaves him and his management free to listen to the UFC's plans and accept them or not.
Regardless of what Jones decides, the show must go on. It's as simple as that. Word came out on Friday per USA Today that Lyoto Machida was offered to step in, in a rematch that Jones reluctantly accepted. Then, Machida declined. Why no hate towards Lyoto? Lyoto should be chomping at the bit to avenge what happened to him last December—eight days or not.
These men are highly trained athletes who should be able to fight with little notice, and we have some of them declining left, right and center.
So now, it turns out it will be Jones vs. Vitor Belfort on September 22nd at UFC 152 in Toronto.
Instead of cancelling the 151 card card and leaving fans, other fighters and themselves furious, the UFC and president Dana White should have used their muscle to force two fighters to fill in and make this card happen.
There is talk that they did not want another low-value, low-revenue event to go down, and I say that is completely the wrong approach. Stand by your roster and to hell with all those "fans" and "media" who bitch and complain about quality of card and declining pay-per-view numbers.
The UFC is playing right into the hands of those complainers by cancelling an entire card and saying it is not worthy of going off. The show must go on. If UFC 149 in Calgary was not cancelled, then no card should be cancelled, and the UFC has now opened a vicious can of worms. The show must go on. Did I say that already?
Chris Weidman told MMAFighting.com that he offered to step in and fight Jones for his belt, and we all know that Chael Sonnen was an inch away from talking himself into a shot; and people are holding him up on a pedestal. Of course these two wanted to fight. It is a win-win for both of them to get a shot at Jones.
Why not settle them both down by saying, "OK boys, you both want to fight and Jones doesn't. You two are the UFC 151 main event. Go save the card." Sonnen vs Weidman. Would they be as eager to put it on the line against each other? I'm not so sure.
You can say chicken Jones all you want, but we all know that is not the case. Be as mad as you want at him for not wanting to fight Sonnen and all comers. Just don't blame Jones for the cancelling of UFC 151.
It wasn't his decision to scrap the entire thing. All he did was decline a fight on eight days notice. If you want to be mad at someone for cancelling the card, be mad at White for making a frustrated, emotional decision that certainly can't and won't be good for business.

One of the things I love best about the environment here is the amazing women I've met! I really love the friends I've made at Bryn Mawr as well as the opportunity to gain new insights that I never had previous exposure to. As a rising senior, I see and feel the transformation that four years here brought me. Knowing that I speak, think, and act with more conviction and independence shows just how much Bryn Mawr empowers her students; you actively draw from a group of mature, capable women each moment you are here. My interactions have subtly taught me how to greet one's peers and the 'real world' with greater clarity and sensibility as a grown woman. It's a secret well of strength that I know I'll use to bolster myself wherever I aim to go afterward. From my experiences at Bryn Mawr as well as my internship this summer, I've realized how important it is to me that I work with Chinese/Asian American communities after graduation. I feel a personal connection to the people in the urban communities and feel compelled to go back to a neighborhood where my parents grew up in order to improve their health awareness and policies. I hope to do research on Asian American women's health and/or Asian American mental health.
