Colorado teacher asked students to send topless photos, police say
FRUITA, Colo. – A Fruita teacher is facing charges after he was accused of asking students to send him topless photos of themselves.
The Fruita Police Department says 58-year-old public school teacher Randy Majors is facing 3 counts of sexual exploitation of a child and 5 counts of attempted sexual exploitation of a child.
According to an arrest affidavit, a parent told police she was going through her 16-year-old daughter's Facebook account and found a message asking her daughter to send nude pictures of herself and to not tell anyone. Police say they later discovered several conversations with other students ranging from 15 to 17 years old.
Majors could not be located for comment and court records did not indicate he has an attorney.

Appeals Court Smacks Down Unpaid HuffPo Bloggers Who Demanded A Cut Of HuffPo Sale
from the easily-dismissed dept
Thankfully, the district court smacked the case down pretty hard, and did so with prejudice, denying him the ability to refile an amended complaint. However, Tasini wasn't ready to give up, and appealed the original ruling. The appeals court has now taken its turn in smacking down the lawsuit, noting that Tasini's argument is simply ridiculous, as you can see in the full filing (also embedded below):
The problem with plaintiffs' argument is that it has no basis in their Amended Complaint. Nowhere in the Amended Complaint do plaintiffs allege that The Huffington Post represented that their work was purely for public service or that The Huffington Post would not subsequently be sold to another company. To the contrary, plaintiffs were perfectly aware that The Huffington Post was a forprofit enterprise, which derived revenues from their submissions through advertising. Perhaps most importantly, at all times prior to the merger when they submitted their work to The Huffington Post, plaintiffs understood that they would receive compensation only in the form of exposure and promotion. Indeed, these arrangements have never changed.In other words, Tasini's inability to accept the deal he made, and the fact that he apparently got jealous of Huffington's ability to sell the site, is not a legal issue at all. The court also re-affirms that the dismissal with prejudice was entirely proper. Maybe, instead of spending all this time on lawsuits, Tasini would be better served trying to build his own site. Of course, as was ironically noted after he filed his lawsuit, Tasini actually did that once and didn't pay the bloggers who blogged for him...
Though it is no doubt a great disappointment to find that The Huffington Post did not live up to the ideals plaintiffs ascribed to it, plaintiffs have made no factual allegations that, if taken as true, would permit the inference that The Huffington Post deceived the plaintiffs or otherwise received a benefit at the expense of the plaintiffs such that equity and good conscience require restitution.

The home of Dr. Erosovich was one of several locations raided by state officials as part of an investigation into doctors who prescribed medications to the former Playmate who died in Florida on February 8th. Erosovich's lawyers challenged the search warrant as "overly broad" and requested the return of some of the good doctor's personal items, including CDs and DVDs that had been seized in the raid.
Erosovich's attorneys also made arrangements to view all of the seized materials. We've learned the judge may appoint a Special Master to the case. This person ensures there was no "inappropriate seizure," and analyzes the material seized to determine what is protected by doctor/patient privilege and what is not.
In addition, the judge signed several additional search warrants -- what those are for, we don't know. They'll be back in court December 5.
Several agencies conducted searches last week in connection with the Medical Board of California's investigation into whether Anna Nicole was overprescribed medication.

DURHAM � A 20-year-old plan to spur economic development on the edge of Orange County appears likely to command more and more attention from city of Durham officials as planning for water and sewer connections gets under way.
The plan targets a roughly 1,000-acre patch of land around the U.S. 70/Interstate 85 interchange and the N.C. Railroad main line that Orange County officials call the Eno Economic Development District.
It�s on the Orange/Durham border near the Bennett Place historic site and Eno River State Park � a location that has Orange officials looking to Durham for the water and sewer service industrial or commercial development there will need.
The two governments have agreed to collaborate, and in January the City Council signed off on hiring engineers to master-plan the backbone of the future piping network. That work will cost up to $121,000 and will be paid for by Orange County.
Presuming the two governments like the initial results, the city would extend the engineers� contract, relaying them another $100,000 to $400,000 to prepare detailed blueprints and permit applications.
Orange County is paying for the work using money from a quarter-percent sales-tax surcharge its voters approved to raise money for schools and economic development.
�The difference between a 20-year plan and what we�re doing now is, we have the money to at least start doing the infrastructure, which seeds [business] activity,� Orange Commission Chairman Barry Jacobs said.
But city involvement in providing water and sewer also brings with it the prospect of the city�s eventually annexing land in the Eno node.
Cross-border annexations aren�t particularly new to Durham officials � part of Chapel Hill is in western Durham County and a bit of Raleigh extends into eastern Durham � but this one has a few built-in political issues they have yet to confront.
Durham city/county planners, looking ahead, will ask the City Council on June 3 to approve non-binding land-use policies for the node that largely track those the Orange commissioners have already established for it. The policies would set the framework for zoning decisions that would follow a future annexation years from now.
The Durham Planning Commission earlier this month voted 13-0 to endorse the staff proposal.
But its decision came only after members heard a dissenting opinion from Old Hillsborough Road resident Darcy Wilson, who told them allowing large-scale commercial development in the node would �destroy the character� of nearby residential areas and potentially threaten the nearby state park.
Wilson was among a number of people who live in and near the node who opposed a zoning package for the node the Orange commissioners approved last September.
The Orange zoning would govern development there until and unless the city of Durham starts annexing the node.
�The very western part of it, the part farthest removed from Durham, still has some unresolved issues as far as the residents are concerned,� Jacobs said. �But I think the vast majority of the EDD has support from the property owners and a great opportunity to develop.�
More broadly, the node is part of a policy that remains controversial with key Orange County political activists.
Orange officials decided in the early 1990s that they wanted to establish target areas for business development. They eventually created three, the Eno district among them, along the I-85 corridor.
But critics said the policy caters to a traditional sort of business-recruitment strategy that doesn�t value the promotion of grassroots enterprise. They also are dubious of the kind of local-government collaboration with business groups that�s routine for Durham officials.
Jacobs said the Eno node is likely to continue to evolve slowly, in part because the ownership of the land in it is fractured.
�There are a lot of small lots in� it, he said. �To aggregate enough to do a large-scale project is more of a challenge than it is in our other two EDDs.�
Orange officials also have transportation questions to sort out. The I-85/U.S. 70 interchange will likely be reworked as part of a future widening of the interstate, and there are questions about transit provisions for the area.
There�s talk of an east-west bus line that would connect Mebane to Duke University, but Jacobs said there are disagreements about its routing.
Triangle Transit officials prefer one using the interstate; Orange officials prefer using U.S. 70, as the interstate, though faster, �would not serve a lot of the areas we�d like to serve, including� the Eno node, he said.
Jacobs said Orange officials have been talking to campus leaders at Duke, trying to interest them in the notion of seeing the Eno node �as a potential economic gateway to the university.�
Work on a park-and-ride lot dovetailing with a bus line is a key possibility on that front, he said.
He acknowledged that Orange officials probably should be talking more to city elected officials. Most of the between-government discussions to date have played out at the staff level.

YREKA – Murder, mystery, laughter and fun will all be rolled into one this week at the Siskiyou County Museum during Double Trouble Theatrics' first ever production of Clue: The Musical.
Directed by Janice Nelson and Mary Korcek, Clue: The Musical will be performed tonight, Tuesday, July 9, and Wednesday, July 10, at 7 p.m. Tickets are $12 for general admission and $10 for students and seniors. Dessert will be served.
This will be the fourth murder mystery comedy put on by Double Trouble Theatrics over the past 10 years, though Nelson pointed out this is the first ever production of Clue: The Musical.
All proceeds will go toward Double Trouble Theatrics' Performing Arts Camp, a children's drama, music and dance workshop that will be offered later this month.
Clue: The Musical cast members have been rehearsing for the production since last month, and they have worked tirelessly to assemble their traditional Clue costumes, said Nelson.
"The cast is having so much fun just at rehearsals; I hope the audience enjoys the production as much as we have been," commented Nelson.
The production will be somewhat interactive, as audience members will be invited to help solve the mystery of who killed Mr. Boddy, in what room and with what weapon.
"I look forward to engaging the audience; it is all about them enjoying themselves," commented Korcek.
The cast members are listed as follows: Bryan Foster as Mr. Boddy, Nelson as Mrs. Peacock, Korcek as Mrs. White, Daniel Simon as Mr. Green, Christine Winte as Professor Plum, Moriah Winte as Miss Scarlet, Chris Robertson as Colonel Mustard, Crystal Abbott as the detective and Kambra Buell is "just the piano player."

What Teens Want: How Teens Use Media
Don't get too caught up in the hype of digital media usage. That is a key message of "How Teens Use Media," a new research report by the Nielsen Company that it will present in New York on Thursday (June 25) at its annual "What Teens Want" conference.
"The notion that teens are too busy texting and Twittering to be engaged with traditional media is exciting, but false," according to the executive summary. Instead of replacing traditional media with new media consumption, teens are simply making time for both, it concludes. Nielsen is the corporate parent of the Hollywood Reporter.
Other myths that the report debunks are that teenagers' preferences differ vastly from adults, that teens' media and entertainment spending is insulated from the recession (they actually reduce it, with out-of-home entertainment more affected than in-home) and that traditional advertising can't resonate with teens (once ads break through the clutter, teens like them more).
The leading type of media use among teens is still television, with the average teenager watching 3 hours and 20 minutes per day, debunking the myth of YouTube as the lead medium. Actually, Nielsen says that teens watch more TV than ever, with usage up 6% over the past five years in the U.S.
In comparison, a typical teen only watches about 11 minutes of online video per day, Nielsen found, or an average of about 3 hours per month. That is much less than adults ages 18-24 who watch 5 hours and 35 minutes per month and even less than adults ages 35-44 who watch 3 hours and 30 minutes per month, according to the study, which compiled data from across Nielsen's media measurement businesses and its biannual global survey of consumers across 50 countries.
"Teens watch less online video than most adults, but the ads are highly engaging to them," the summary of the Nielsen report says. "Teens spend 35% less time watching online video than adults 25-34, but recall ads better when watching TV shows online than they do on television."
The most popular site for online video among teens is YouTube, but networking sites MySpace and Facebook, as well as Hulu are also popular choices.
The second-most popular medium among teens is the PC (including applications), with an average of 52 minutes per day. The Internet, with an average of 23 minutes per day, comes in third, according to Nielsen.
However, teenagers also spend less time on the Internet than other demos, spending only 11 hours and 2 minutes online per month - less than half of the 29 hours and 15 minutes that the average user spends on the Internet each month. The report attributes this to the fact that teens in school are less likely than working adults to be sitting in front of a computer all day.
While parents and teens may argue about programming choices, the youngsters' preferences are not much different as U.S. teens' favorite TV show ("American Idol") and top Web site (Google), as well as teens' favorite TV genre around the world (general dramas) are in line with overall preferences. Or as the Nielsen report states: "Teens are unique, but they are not as bizarre and outlying as some might presume."
Nic Covey, director of insights at The Nielsen Company, will present highlights from the report Thursday.
Other key findings of the study include:
* Half of all teenagers use an audio-only MP3 player each day, while one in four watch video on an mp3 player.
* On an average day, one in four teens reads the newspaper.
* While teens multi-task in their media usage, this behavior may actually be lower than among adults.
* South African, Venezuelan and Indonesian teens are the biggest couch potatoes.
* 35% of U.S. teens may have DVRs, but they prefer live TV viewing.

Hi there, the idea came out of the fact that I bought some old kite waveboard for cheap, but the trackerfins that were in there were too small and flexible, in the jibe you had no feeling and nice sprayed turns were not into it, so propably the board was drifting too much due to the too small and flexible fins.
Now I had a plate of aluminium and a 3 layers plywoodplate.
The idea that the trackerfins are without a profile on the inside, gave me the idea to put the aluminium plate on the inside and this would be great because you could screw the allen screws against it ( wood would not hold it)
Secondly the outside of the fins, would be wood, easy to profile and lightweight too.
I copied another trackerfin on the wood and the aluminium as well, cut them out, and glued them together with Tec7 a silicon based glue that glues everything together.
A night inbetween a benchpress and the next day we could start grinding and shaping , which turned out to be not that difficult.
6layer plywood would have been better to controle the profile and it would look nicer but these are just proto's, to see if they hold the pressure ( maybe 6layer plywood would be stronger, we will see)
If this holds, I will be going a good time this winter in makeing all kinds of fins, they turned out really light :now 70grams for one, and still need to work the epoxy that I pored over the wood.
Any ideas/remarks would be helpfull, have not been able to test them yet.

You, dear Ecocentric readers, have heard us sing the praises of the Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) model of supporting local, sustainable farmers. One main point of joining a CSA is that income is guaranteed to the farmer upfront, providing support through the entire growing season. The value of such investment was particularly evident to us last fall, when severe damage from Hurricane Irene devastated farms throughout the East, including the CSA we'd subscribed to. This upfront payment is invaluable to be able to withstand such weather fluctuations and pest-related realities of farming.
Much like an organic farmer, small fishermen face a similar risk - their livelihoods are at the mercy of the ocean, where there is no guaranteed steady income (not to mention the immense challenge of competing with the big distributors). Back in 2007, the Mid-Coast Fishermen's Cooperative, the Northwest Atlantic Marine Alliance and the First Universalist Church in Rockland, Maine, created the first Community Supported Fishery (CSF) to distribute local shrimp to their neighbors. They called it the Port Clyde CSF, and the pilot program proved to be a successful endeavor. It continues today as Port Clyde Fresh Catch, delivering shrimp as well as fish like halibut and sole, to nearby locations in Maine.
"The advantage of a CSF is "that you have complete traceability; you know what boat it came from and where it was caught" -Bianca Piccillo, Mermaid's Garden
And as we've seen over the past few years, more and more fishermen are embracing the CSF model - with great success - to provide communities with sustainable seafood. There are currently about 25 organizations calling themselves CSFs around the country and more are popping up all the time. Most are on the east coast of the US, in communities across New England and the Mid Atlantic but central California, San Francisco, Alaska and Louisiana are in it too.
In general, CSFs are geographically confined to the coasts, but we're also seeing CSFs that source from recirculating farms, like Local Oceans, a model which, if replicated, could provide more inland communities with fish grown aquaponically. The sky is the limit when it comes to aquaponics operations - many are located in cities, and new models are being constructed. Some communities are combining CSA and CSF models, like Maine's Maple Farm and Fishery which features seafood, maple syrup, organic vegetables and herbs.
I had the opportunity to speak with Bianca Piccillo and Mark Usewicz, two seasoned restaurant professionals and the organizers of a brand new CSF, Mermaid's Garden, which launched this spring in Brooklyn.
Bianca's passion for sustainability and supporting her Brooklyn community and local fishermen were palpable. She explained that the advantage of a CSF is "that you have complete traceability; you know what boat it came from and where it was caught. It's super high quality, getting to you in two days as opposed to two weeks. And the fishermen we work with are paid fair wages."
"Six years ago we moved to Park Slope, and I personally have a background in marine biology. We were seriously thinking about opening up a sustainable fish market eventually, and the CSF came about to get us started. We began reaching out to local fisherman [Mark works with them through his position as executive chef at Palo Santo] and are now working with about five to ten fisherman in Long Island, Rhode Island and Massachusetts. We are aware that people don't want the same thing every week, so we have a diversity of fisherman to guarantee diversity of fish."
When asked how she defines success and how she will reflect on this inaugural CSF season, Bianca said, "We want to build awareness and a customer base making people happy doing what we love and taking things slow." Mermaid's Garden is facilitating the relationship between consumers and producers adrift in a sea (no pun intended) of problems with factory farmed fish and open ocean aquaculture, making this model a welcome alternative.
Interested in joining a CSF? The Northwest Atlantic Marine Alliance (NAMA) has been working for the past decade to sustain small fisheries and have a CSF list. You can also find a CSF near you using this map of drop-off locations from Local Catch.

Natalie Portman has teamed up with Free The Children to launch The Power of a Girl, an initiative to spread the word about educating girls in developing nations.
"With women comprising 70 percent of the world's poor, investing in the education of girls is one of the best ways to end the cycle of poverty," Nat said. "I'm thrilled to be working with Free The Children and excited to see the ways in which youth throughout North America and the U.K. will be able to help send girls to school in Kenya, bringing them one step closer to achieving their dreams."
From now until May 1, young people aged 13-21 are encouraged to raise funds for Kisaruni, Free The Children's new all-girls' secondary school in Kenya. Finalists will be chosen in May and asked to share why they think it's important to empower girls through education.
The winner will take home Natalie's Rodarte dress from the AFI Fest premiere of Black Swan and the chance to travel to Kenya over the summer!

PINELLAS COUNTY, Fla. (WFLA) - Convicted cop killer Marco Parilla testified before a jury Thursday.
The jury is to decide whether Parilla gets life or death for the killing of Tarpon Springs Police Officer Charles Kondek.
"I wish I could take it back. Every second of my life, I wish I could take it back," Parilla said on the stand.
Emotional, he apologized.
"That I'm truly, honestly sorry for what I've done to cause pain and hurt in your life," he said.
Parilla shot and killed Officer Kondek in 2014.
In court, his attorneys showed several videos, hoping to paint him as someone who is remorseful.
Parilla said he was sorry to News Channel 8's cameras as he was being escorted to jail shortly after his arrest.
"I apologize to the family. It was not my intention," he said in 2014.
His attorneys also played his interview and a video message to his sons.
But prosecutors said Parilla had his second chance when he got out of prison three years ago but decided to stay on the wrong path.
"That night you made a choice, did you not?"
"Yes I did."
Court resumes Friday at 8:30 a.m.
The jury is expected to deliberate after closing arguments.

The Fighting Scots executed their offense with precision in the early moments of the game. Gordon connected on its first six shots, and with left in the opening half, held a commanding 16-3 lead. It was an ominous beginning for the Cardinal Red and Silver Gray, which was facing a unit that came into the tilt without a blemish on its record.
It was Tech's tri-captain, Adam Gibbons, who sparked MIT's initial rally. Gibbons knocked down a three, made two free throws, forced a steal and finished on a fast-break lay up in a span of to erase most of the damage. Another short run highlighted by Phil Murray's steal and fast-break basket evened the ledger, and when Gibbons canned a jumper for the wing at in the first half, MIT enjoyed its first lead of the night at 30-29.
Gibbons and Murray teamed again near the end of the half as
MIT opened with the hot hand in the second half, building a 42-32 advantage with just over 16 minutes left to play. Mike Herr kept the Scots in the game with a tremendous offensive performance. The Gordon sophomore had five three's and closed with 22 points. He also paced Gordon with a team-high eight rebounds. Freshman Jon Marstaller, who was instrumental in getting Gordon ahead in the first, finished with 15 points and five rebounds.
Except for the first five minutes, the game belonged to MIT, which outscored the Scots 66-43 the rest of the way. Both teams shot well, but MIT made good on a season-high 46 percent of its shots from the field. Junior Mike D'Auria added 11 points, five rebounds and four assists, while Mike Huhs added 10 points and six boards.
Behind the shooting of Herr and Marstaller, Gordon closed the gap and briefly held the lead with seven minutes to go. However, continued pressure from the MIT offense outpaced the Gordon attack in the waning moments of regulation.

this the cleveland ohio sunday world is a leading republican organ of the str lightest sect in its issue of the oth inst it says editorially : the question that will soon be of all-absorbing interest

slaves noloi - ger and no one save perhaps a few rabid southerners would like to see the times of 1850 return the question now rising is not a question of equali ty the question of the color line in the south seems to be purely a matter of politics and the republicans urge that every colored mansvo'ebe count ed because the negroes are republicans as far however as the majority of these southern negroes a;e capable of judging what the rights of ballot means 10.000 bobtail gorillas trained to put folded pie&s of p i e - in a slot would exercise as much judgment and understanding as 10,000

spoken of sterility or a deaf-mute idiotic or deformed progeny is predicted and ex amples are always at hand to cite in support of the prophecy does this opinion rest upon positive and well authenticated facts or is it erroneous this is a question that was examined a few years ago by mr 1 h darwin who after a profound study of the subject came to the con clusion that in the present state of science there is nothing to justify the common prejudice that exists against the marriage of near kin more re cently the subject has been further examined by mr a h huth who has just published an exhaustive work ' upon it in which he arrives at the ; same conclusion that mr darwin did mr huth thinks th.it consanguinity of itself plays no particular role in the union of individuals of the same stock in the descendants it increases the tendencies common to the two jr-ge nitors by reason of their relation ' ship the closer the relationship of the ancestors the greater is the tendency of the descendants to exhibit the same dispositions if these are good con sanguineous unions will be a vantage ous ill that they will fortify and in tensify them if on the contrary they ! ire bad such unions should be avoided in order to prevent a re-enforcement of infavorable tendencies which should be suppressed but the case is identi cal where it is a question of unrelated persons no reasonable person would urge two neuropathic individuals of different family to unite lecause he knows that the neurosis has every liance to become intense in the de scendants oil the contrary a union between consanguineous individu ils equally healthy and well favored ought to be encouraged what may be urged against marriages of near kin ' is the facility with which unfavorable tendencies are transmitted and the relative rarity of the circumstances in which such marriages can really be idyised but this admitted and ex ' plained consanguinity of itself presents 10 inconvenience especially if we con sider how remote by reason of the ex isting laws upon marriage is the de gree of consanguinity between the in 1 viduals capable of uniting legiti mately upon the whole consanguinity ac uinulates and intensities tendencies ; if these are bad the marriage of near tin should be avoided if good it may ' be favored but as unfortunately ' the unfavorable tendencies are more jasily and frequently transmitted be ' aus they are the ones that are estab ' iished with the most facility there is ' oftener more reason for avoiding than seeking such unions upon the whole mr ii nth concludes that the

Matthew White, who started at center for the University of Pennsylvania when it reached the Final Four in 1979, was stabbed to death by his wife Monday after she reportedly discovered he had been looking at child pornography.
White was sleeping in bed in their Nether Providence, Pennsylvania home when his wife, Maria Garcia-Pellon, allegedly stabbed him in the neck.
Afterwards, Garcia-Pellon went to a friend's house and said White, 53 had been looking at pornography and she killed him. The friend then called 911. Garcia-Pellon reportedly told authorities, "I caught him looking at pornography, young girls, I love kids. I had to do it."
Investigators found White dead in his bed. Garcia-Pellon has been charged with first degree murder, criminal homicide and possession of an instrument of crime
White was the starting center on Penn's 1979 Final Four team – the only time the Quakers ever made the Final Four. That team lost to eventual national champion Michigan State, which was led by Magic Johnson.
