Let the Robot Wash Your Dishes
In the fast paced life and heavy work stress in the office, it’s not easy to work in home and washing dishes in the kitchen is perhaps one of the most irksome tasks for the modern housewives. Right? Well, Panasonic’s latest creation might just do the trick. The KAR robot arm developed by a group of researchers from Panasonic and the University of Tokyo will wash the dish plates for you in the kitchen.
What’s different? The one armed robot can gingerly handle your most precious chinaware, wash the entire set and then place the dishes in a kitchen dish rack and that too without making a mess. Indeed, a ‘dream come true’ for any modern housewife. Do I still need to spend more words on its inimitability?

Suspect charged in slaying of Frayser girl, 11

Jacob Mason, 32, has been charged with second-degree murder and two counts of aggravated assault in the death of Kentaria Traylor on Friday.
She was sitting inside her Frayser home in the 2100 block of Burnham when a bullet pierced a window and struck her in the neck.
Kentaria was taken to Le Bonheur Children's Medical Center, where she later died.
Witnesses told police that after hearing gun shots, they saw a maroon sport-utility vehicle drive off fast.
Police said Mason became a suspect after investigators received information that he and Bryant Williamson had been involved in an ongoing dispute.
Bryant Williamson is Kentaria's uncle, said Cathy Williamson, the child's great-aunt.
Friday afternoon at 1:30, Old Allen Station police officers had responded to a "shots fired" call at Pamela and University streets and arrested Bryant Williamson and Sean McCroy. Two guns were seized and both men were charged with unlawful possession of a weapon.
As investigators interviewed witnesses following Kentaria's death, they determined that the drive-by shooting at 5 p.m. on Friday may have stemmed from the confrontation earlier in the afternoon. Mason was seen then in a maroon Dodge Durango with temporary tags.
Marcus Williamson, Kentaria's uncle and the brother of Bryant Williamson, said justice has been served with Mason's arrest.
"They should give him the death penalty," he said. "She had nothing to do (with the dispute). Now she won't be able to open her Christmas presents because of something stupid."
Kentaria was a fifth-grader at Denver Elementary School, where she was an honor-roll student. She was a member of Promise Land Church.
She was the daughter of Kanisha Williamson and Jamel Traylor.
The shooting came as a surprise to neighbors, who described their street as quiet and safe.
Next-door neighbor Carolyn Isom said she's relieved that police have made an arrest.
"It's good that they found him," Isom said.
Cathy Williamson said Tuesday afternoon that she had been praying that police would make an arrest in Kentaria's death.
"It's beautiful and good," she said.
"Catching him was a big thing and now I have to make sure (her mother) is OK and that she's able to get through this," Williamson said. "That was her family and her heart."
Flint mother Latrica Ryan of 10 looks to community for help

"It would really be nice if I could take my kids where they needed to go, instead of having to find them a ride," Ryan said. "And when we do go somewhere, I have to pay four or five people (for gas) to get us all there.
"I have booster seats and car seats. It's a lot."
Ryan, is a 29-year-old single stay-at-home mother of five sons and five daughters, who range in age from 2 months to 13 years.
Transportation isn't the only issue Ryan has to deal with.
The Flint woman said she sometimes needs help providing her children with clothes and food.
"As they get older, it's becoming harder and more expensive to buy them clothes," Ryan said. "I try to keep the older kids looking nice because I don't want them to be teased at school.
"And they don't starve," she said. "But there are times when I start running low on food and I have to call for help."
Ryan may not be able to take her kids on a fancy vacation, but with the help of organizations such as FACED Corporation, she is able to ensure that her kids' basic needs are met.
The Flint-based agency has helped Ryan clothe and feed her children, as well as pay utility bills.
"It started off with diapers and bus passes." Ryan said of her first encounter with FACED 10 years ago. "Now, Retinea (Dye, a maternal and infant health advocate at FACED) will give me a ride to doctors' appointments for my kids. She'll take me to their schools. She's always there when I need her."
FACED is a faith-based community outreach agency that focuses on assisting the low-income. Dye said the agency helps educate mothers on parenting and provides them with things such as maternity clothes, baby clothes, other baby items, counseling and support groups.
Dye said the agency has even helped pay security deposits for housing.
Tough times have brought more people into the agency in search of help.
"We're getting more calls for assistance with utility bills because the price of gas had gone up," Dye said. "We can only (help) so many people, so we're referring them to other agencies."
Dye said FACED has reached its limit of aiding 50 families. The agency is in need of donations to continue assisting families.
"In between (Women, Infant and Children) appointments, moms run out of formula, and they turn to us," Dye said. "Sometimes we have what they need and if we don't, we have to refer them to other agencies."
Even without a car, Ryan manages to stay involved in her children's school life, volunteering and meeting with teachers to check on their progress.
Most of Ryan's 10 children are in school and six are on the honor roll, she said.
"They're good kids," she said.

Motorbike Simulator

There’s no end of elaborate and expensive simulators designed to recreate the feeling of driving a car, but you don’t see nearly as many designed for motorcycles, like the EF-Bike simulator from Simulator Systems International. It uses 3 x 42-inch plasma displays in conjunction with a bike chassis mounted atop a motion platform to accurately recreate the feeling of driving in city, country or even highway conditions. The bike features real motorcycle components used for all of the controls and instruments, and even has a set of on-screen virtual rear-view mirrors.
Unfortunately though, as far as I can tell the EF-Bike Motorcycle Simulator isn’t designed for use with games like MotoGP, but features its own software complete with interactive traffic and pedestrians so beginners can safely learn the basics of handling a motorcycle with minimal road rash. But with a virtual top speed of 90 mph and an optional police or “public forces” option (which includes a siren) I think there’s still plenty of fun to be had with it.
Couple Charged With Pointing Gun At YMCA Bus


A couple is under arrest after allegedly pointing a weapon at a bus load of children in Henrico County Monday afternoon.
According to Police, 26-year-old Patricia Murray and her 36-year-old fiancee Brian Stephenson were driving behind an after-school activities bus when the children on the bus began making obscene gestures at the suspects' car. Police said Murray allegedly produced a gun and pointed it at the children, then handed the gun to Stephenson, who also allegedly pointed the weapon.
Murray's 7-year-old daughter was on the bus. There were about 35 children on the bus, ranging in age from 5 to 10. The children were from Donahoe, Fair Oaks and Sandston Elementary Schools.
Police were called after the bus arrived at the YMCA in Sandston. When Murray arrived to pick up her daughter, she was arrested. Police searched her car and found a gun.
Stephenson was also taken into custody.
Murray and Stephenson both are charged with pointing and brandishing a firearm, as well as child neglect. They both deny pointing the weapon.

Billie Jean SUES Michael Jackson!

Michael Jackson has been hit with a £668 million lawsuit from a woman called Billie Jean - who reportedly wants custody of his son. In a suit filed in Los Angeles on Wednesday, Billie Jean Jackson alleges she is the mother of the singer's son Prince Michael Jackson II, nicknamed Blanket. The woman demands £668 million in support payment, as well as joint legal and physical custody of the six-year-old, according to legal documents obtained by US news programme Extra. Billie Jean also requests visits with the boy on Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays - in addition to participation in Blanket's education. The Thriller hitmaker refused to identify Blanket's mother after he was born in 2002, but has previously said the child was the result of artificial insemination from a surrogate. Jackson has faced similar lawsuits in the past. In 2006 and 2007, a woman unsuccessfully sued him for paternity payments, claiming she helped Jackson reproduce. Im sure MJ will know who the actual mother really is, so what makes this money-grabbing hoe think she has a chance...
6 Feet Remote Control Tank

The tank is a ¼-sized tank, it’s a 6ft long replica of a German King Tiger. It’s powered by two 500 watt 24 volt motors. Which can actually only pull a car on level ground, but it’s still impressive nonetheless. It also features a 2ft long gun that has realistic recoil action. The gun doesn’t work, but it does have built-in speakers which are meant to simulate the rumbling noise that tanks usually render. The tank of course is a bit pricey though, you can pick it up for £6,600 or about $10,200 from the Mark 1 Tank Company.

First Taste: Tips For Oral Sex First Timers

Set The Table:
It’s nothing wrong with letting your partner know it’s your first time this way they can guide you towards doing the right thing. Also you want to make sure that both of you are clean and fresh before you eat. It’s just like making dinner, you have to wash the dishes and clean your food before you put it in your mouth.
Do What You Do - There is no need to rush to the promise land. Start off slow, kiss her neck, chest and stomach. This is oral sex, so make love to her whole body with your mouth. Same applies for women, only you shouldn’t take a long time to get down to the shaft. Include the head, shaft, balls and legs in your oral sessions and we’ll love you forever. Turning her on before you get to the main course is the best thing you can do if you want to bring her towards having the biggest orgasm she has ever had in her life. You’ll love the taste of her all in your mouth and over your face.
Timing Is Everything - Catch her right when she comes home from work, I’m talking as soon as she walks in the door. She’s probably pissed off and aggravated because the boss is stupid and makes her do dumb things like making memos to talk about another memo that’s going to be sent out in an hour. So kiss her, and sit her on the couch or throw her on the bed. Passionately take her pants and panties off and graze your tongue over her lady part. A good thing most women like is to suck on their clit in between long licks of her vagina. You can’t use the same motion over and over again, so keep her on her toes and make sure you licking puts an arch in her back. That’s when you know you’re doing a good job.
Man flunks drug test, steals fridge full of urine

A Gainesville man has been accused of stealing a small refrigerator from a probation office to destroy one of his own urine samples. Devin Anthony Perry, 26, of 4117 SW 20th Ave., was arrested and charged with arson, destroying evidence, burglary and larceny. The charges are connected with a break-in at the Department of Corrections Probation and Parole office at 7020 NW 11th Place between 2 a.m and 5 a.m. Sunday. It is the same office that Perry reported to on Friday to provide a urine sample that tested positive for drug use, according to Alachua County Sheriff's Office spokesman Art Forgey.
Based on evidence at the scene, statements by Perry and information from probation officers, Sheriff's Office investigators pieced together the following series of events.
After realizing that his sample tested positive, Perry went to the office, shot out a window to get inside and removed the locked refrigerator used to store samples. After leaving the office, Perry picked up shards of window glass that had his blood on it and set the shrubbery beneath the window on fire.
Probation officers who arrived at the office shortly before dawn saw the smoldering shrubs and called deputies, and then provided investigators with a list of those who may have had a reason to want a stored sample destroyed. Investigators began tracking down the potential suspects.
At Perry's home the investigators looked into a trash bin and found shards of glass with blood on them wrapped inside clothing believed to have been Perry's. The refrigerator had not been found by Monday morning.
State records show Perry was sentenced to probation until 2018 for multiple drug convictions, including possession and sale of marijuana and cocaine. On Monday morning, he was being held at the Alachua County Jail.
Memphis Truck Driver Arrested For Rape And Kidnapping

Police say Mateen Malik Hudson picked up a prostitute in the area of Lamar Ave. and Winchester Rd. in southeast Memphis Sunday evening.
According to a police affidavit, Hudson beat the woman, raped her, tied her up with duct tape, and took off towards Nashville with her in his truck.
Investigators say outside of Nashville, he removed the duct tape, and the victim hit him in the head with a shoe. Police say Hudson stopped the truck and beat her repeatedly with his fists, causing injuries to her head.
The victim was able to escape after Hudson pulled into a truck stop in east Tennessee to get some food. Authorities were notified, and Hudson was stopped by Cumberland County deputies while heading east on I-40 near Crossville.
Man who helped killer of Mandeville-area homemaker Samantha Jaume is given 40-year prison sentence

But Zlatico "Zack" Brujic, 33, could face up to life in prison if prosecutors are successful in having him declared a habitual offender during a hearing scheduled for Feb. 5. The St. Tammany Parish District Attorney's Office said Brujic has prior felony convictions for drugs, robbery and possession of stolen things, all in Jefferson Parish. Brujic was sentenced by state Judge Raymond Childress to 40 years for obstruction of justice.
He was found guilty last month of helping Dominic Robinson escape the area and cover up evidence after Robinson shot Jaume at her home in Woodridge subdivision near Mandeville.
Robinson followed Jaume, 25, and her four children from the Wal-Mart Supercenter south of Covington and shot her in the head during a botched car-jacking. He then fled in to nearby woods and called his friend Brujic for help. ¶
Robinson, of Waggaman, was convicted of first-degree murder in August and is awaiting sentencing. Because of Gustav, the sentencing phase of his trial to determine if he should receive the death penalty has been postponed.
Robinson already is serving a life sentence for kidnapping and wounding a Houma man during a carjacking a month after Jaume was slain.

5 Things I've Learned From Disney Movies

2)Finding Nemo - Women are like Dory they can f*ck with you and forget you very easily, but if you’re down with them they’ll be down with you. Not only will they be down with you, they’ll go half way around the world with you despite all of your issues and problems. Especially when a good pipe laying is involved. If you hit it from the back right, or throw them up against the wall and get busy it will gain you some extra “I’ll do this with you/for you” points that can build a life long friendship if not nothing else.
3)Pirates of The Caribbean - Capt Jack Sparrow was the ultimate player, he’s a drunken ladies man who slept with numerous wenches. Well you can learn a lot from a dummy, so take this as a warning if you cheat you’re liable to get hurt by a woman. Just as jack found out when 2 wenches smacked him. There is an old saying that there is no woman like a woman scorned, so unless you want to get your door keyed, your clothes burned or the windows bust out your car I will suggest you not cheat.
4)Snow White & The 7 Drawfs - The most extreme case of freakiness that is Disney Movies, a poisoned princess ends up in the woods alone with seven old men. But, that’s not where I’m going with this one. Women are freaky and if you get them drunk enough, or say the right things to them you can have group sex. She may even fall madly in love with you. I’m not one for running trains, but I also don’t see anything wrong with a woman who wants more than one partner. Hell men want threesomes so why can’t women. I blame Snow White for women wanting to have group sex. Hey, ladies let me buy you a drink.
5)Sleepy Beauty - Sleepy Beauty is the most famous Princess in the world of Disney. This fairy tale is like the story of my life. Think about it, a prince has to travel across the country and face a fire breathing dragon in order to apply a kiss on the love of his life, right? We’ll if you’ve ever slept in the bed with a woman then you faced morning breath before, same thing. Now while it’s not like traveling across the country, opening her legs of a woman and taking the panties off a sleeping woman is a very difficult task. Now once you do this you should wake your sleeping beauty with a kiss directly on her private parts. You’ll live happily ever after.

Woman Shot at East Memphis Shopping Center

Detectives believe 36 year-old April Gibbs was sitting in a black Chevy Impala when she was shot once. Gibbs was taken to the Med in critical condition, but later died.

Police believe the shooting was the result of a drug deal gone bad.
Woman convicted of killing boyfriend's daughter

An emergency-room doctor and two deputy coroners found bruises, skull fractures and brain hemorrhages that pointed to child abuse.
Today, Ely was convicted of murder, felonious assault and child endangering after a weeklong trial without a jury before Judge David E. Cain in Franklin County Common Pleas Court.
"The court does not know what happened," Cain said. "But the court does not have any doubt that the defendant is responsible for these injuries."
On Oct. 11, 2006, Ely, 22, was watching her boyfriend's daughter, Brooklyn Branham, while he was away in Cleveland.
In the emergency room at Doctors Hospital, Ely said Brooklyn and another toddler fell down the stairs at her Prairie Township home and that she dropped the child on the pavement outside as she rushed her to the hospital.
She did not call 911.
The case was ruled a homicide by Coroner Brad Lewis.
Defense attorney Joseph Scott called a former Illinois pathologist who said the child's injuries were consistent with a fall and that her head could have struck the bottom step, which was uncarpeted.
But Dr. Tracy Rahal testified that Brooklyn was cold to the touch and didn't have a pulse when she arrived in the Doctors emergency room 15 minutes after Ely said she fell.
Bruising on the child's body, including a hand-shaped grip mark on a leg, could not have formed in that time, and blood had started to pool in the child's skin, which also indicated that the injuries had happened previously, Rahal said.
Assistant County Prosecutors Jennifer Rausch and Megan Jewett said Ely first identified herself to detectives as the child's mother and lied about the age of the other toddler in the house. She was alone with the children when Brooklyn became unconscious.
Dr. Tae An, a deputy coroner, said the girl's autopsy revealed brain swelling and hemorrhaging from a skull fracture, multiple bruises and a lung infection. He ruled the cause of death as brain injuries from blunt trauma.
"It would be very unusual to sustain such a fracture from a fall," he testified.
Ely did not testify.
Cain set sentencing for Dec.30. Ely, who showed no reaction to the verdict, was taken immediately to jail. She could be sentenced to 33 years to life in prison.

Rear Entry 5 Ways To Do Her Doggie Style

“If sex is a pain in the butt, you’re doing it wrong.” If you ask people what’s their favorite position most of them will say doggy style. It’s this reason why knowing how to hit it from the back the right way is extremely important if you plan on having a lasting relationships. So, in this blog you’ll find a few different positions to try and a few things to try out while you’re doing it doggy style.
We all know of the regular doggy style with the woman on all fours and the man entering her from behind, but there are a lot of adaptations that can enhance the feeling of the best position ever.
1. Tight & Right - While your hitting it from the back, have the woman close her legs and the man should enter her while her legs are closed. This will make it tight and right. You also want to make sure that she stays on all fours. This can be done by grabbing a handful of hair or shoulders.
Added Benefits - You can give her a massage while your hands are on her shoulders and give it to her slow and sensual like, but if making love is not your foretay. Then grab a handful of her hair and yank her back, while pounding away at her rear.
2. Leg Lift - Another amazing position is while the woman is on all fours left her leg up in the air and enter from behind. She can use the headboard or a wall to maintain her balance. Speaking of balance, you might not even want to try this position if your woman is clumsy or doesn’t have enough balance. If balance isn’t an issue what you’ll want to do is take one hand and grab her leg and lift it in the air, and with your other hand you can hold her waist to guide your stride inside of her.
Added Benefits - This is the best time to talk to her, tell her how good it feels and assert your control over her with an occasional statement. Giving her credit for her balance and ability to take it will turn her on.
3. Lay & Spread - Another one of my favorite doggy positions is to have her lay on her stomach and spread her legs and go to work. This normally happens after she can no longer maintain her position on all fours. What I like to do is stay inside her as she collapse to the bed. This position allows the guy to do several tricks to enhance pleasure. Remember females rarely orgasm by penetration alone, so doing a little extra for her pleasure can assure you a second round at least
Added Benefits - The guy can place his hand on her lower back and use that leverage to kill it from behind. He can also rest on her back and kiss her on the mouth and neck. I think a lot of people forget the importance of kissing during sex. Another trick if you want it to make it hot and dirty sex is insert a finger in her butt. Just remember not to go too deep
4. The Deep 9 - I really shouldn’t be giving away my secret like this, but it’s all for the love of the blog and my readers. The deep nine is a cadence that will have her going crazy. It’s the ultimate tease and the ultimate penetration all in one. I start by giving her 9 shallow strokes, teasing her inner walls and on the tenth stroke I rapidly thrust every inch of my manxilla inside of her, and then immediately go back to slow sensual shallow strokes. Only the next time around I only give her 8 shallow stroke and 2 deep, and then 7 and 3 and so on. Until I give her 10 deep long strokes completely trying to blow her back out. If you do this good she’ll never know what to expect. If you can complete this it’s almost a giving that she’ll reach orgasm.
5. Top of the Mountain - While she’s face down as* up the man should stand up and enter her from behind. The best method for this is to do it hard. Now dude, you shouldn’t even try this is you can’t maintain your balance, because the last thing you want to do is fall on top of her. If you did fall she would never forgive you and you might end up breaking her back bone. So here is what you do use a wall or her back to maintain your balance and guide your stride. If balance isn’t an issue reach around her and play with her cl*t while you’re sliding in and out of her.
Added Benefit - Smack her on the backside. This is the best position to demonstrate your control over the situation. So be aggressive B.E. aggressive and spank her hard like she was a naughty girl. She’ll thank you for it.
Added Benefits - Grabbing her hips and talking… well not talking but telling her exactly how you want her to feel is a great add on to this trick. Again it asserts control over the situation which will send floods of wetness his way. Pulling hair and grabbing her shoulder can work here as well but it’s nothing like reaching around and him placing his hands on her throat which will make her explode with orgasms.
Swiss Army Knife for $1,400

As any fool will gladly tell you (playing the part of fool today–me) the Swiss Army Knife kicks butt… or slices butt… actually, maybe it uncorks then unscrews butt. I can’t really be sure. Let’s just say the Swiss Army Knife does a lot of stuff.
I just entered Swiss Army Knife into ebay’s search function and came up with 2,390 returns. There are 13 in 1’s, 16 in 1’s, even a 32 in 1–and I’m still on the first page of results. However, if you want a Swiss Army Knife with 87 tools and 112 functions, the holder of the Guinness World Record for “The Most Multifunctional Penknife,” you’re going to need to head to Hammacher Schlemmer with $1,400 and the enlarged pocket this enlarged pocketknife demands!
“It has seven blades, three types of pliers, three golf tools (club face cleaner, shoe spike wrench, and divot repair tool), 25 flat- and Phillips-head screwdrivers and bits, saws, wrenches, and more. It also has a bicycle chain rivet setter, signal whistle, 12/20-gauge shotgun choke tube tool, combination fish scaler, hook disgorger, and line guide tool, cigar-cutting scissors, laser pointer, tire-tread gauge, toothpick, tweezers, and key ring.
1 dead after argument over a woman at Glendale bar

One man died and two others were seriously injured in a shooting in a parking lot at Glendale's sports and entertainment district. Two groups got into an argument inside Westgate's Bar Louie at 1:30 a.m. Sunday morning.
"It was a, 'Hey, are you looking at my gal,' type of situation," said Sgt. Jim Toomey, a Glendale police spokesman. "Words start to get exchanged, people are intoxicated, and it escalates from there . . . that's what started the whole argument."
Antonio Munoz, 22, of Phoenix, was pronounced dead at a trauma center. Phoenix residents Michael Lozano, 22, and Juan Rodriguez, 24, were also taken to trauma centers. As of Monday morning, Lozano was in critical condition and Rodriguez was in stable condition.
Glendale police have arrested two men and are speaking with another man, whom they are calling a "person of interest."
Jamell Shadae Caradine, 22, of Peoria, was charged with second-degree murder and aggravated assault. Jawaun Leonard Sheppard, 31, also of Peoria, was charged with illegal possession of a weapon.

Nokia 7210 Supernova

Boasting a slim casing and colourful details with an 80s vibe, this is a stylish phone that’s not ashamed to rock some electric blue or pink. The 7210’s interface is simple and easy to use, with large icons and straightforward features — it’s no iPhone, but it’s not trying to be.
There’s an FM radio, a 2-megapixel camera (no flash), an expandable memory slot that can hold up to 2GB, and a 2.5mm headphone jack, which is annoying, since it means you’ll have to buy special headphones or use the ones in the box. Web access is restricted to GPRS, so don’t expect lightning speed.
While we’re not overwhelmed by this simple little phone it’ll fit comfortably in your pocket and it does what it says on the tin. Some users may find the keypad a little flat, but with some practice you do get used to it. Considering the lack of high-end features

Victim shot during funeral identified

PORTLAND, Ore. - Portland police searched Friday for a shooting suspect who opened fire as a funeral was taking place at a north Portland church.
The service was being held Friday afternoon inside the New Hope Missionary Church on North Gantenbein Avenue.
Witnesses said gunfire erupted following a fist fight at the back of the church.
The shooting left Darshawn Lavone Cross, 31, wounded with what police described as "life-threatening injuries." He was shot several times in the stomach area.
Sgt. Brian Schmautz with the Portland Police Bureau said Friday the victim has a criminal history of gang-related activity. Family members at the funeral said he is the nephew of the woman who was being remembered at the service - 51-year-old Sharon Lynn Kemp.
Early reports indicated the suspect fled the scene in a white Chevrolet Impala with no license plates on it but police could not confirm that information. Police were interviewing witnesses Friday evening and no suspect information was immediately released.
The Associated Press provided this report on the incident:
PORTLAND, Ore. (AP) — Gunfire erupted during a funeral service at a church on the north side of Portland on Friday, gravely wounding a 31-year-old man with a history of gang activity and sending mourners fleeing.
Sgt. Brian Schmautz of the Portland police said the wounded man, Darshawn Lavone Cross, had a criminal history of gang-related activity.
Although the neighborhood has been gentrifying in recent years, it has in the past been the scene of gang activity.
Schmautz said the shooter was still on the loose.
The shooting happened about 12:15 p.m. at the New Hope Missionary Baptist Church.
The funeral was for an elderly woman, Schmautz said. He said he did not know of any connections or relationship among her, the victim and the shooter.
He said some mourners left the church afterward to follow the funeral procession to a cemetery, and police were trying to interview them.
The Rev. Robert C. Jointer has been the pastor at New Hope for about 16 years, his children said.
Jointer's 26-year-old son, Charles Jointer, said he was in his father's study in the church when shots were fired.
He says he had stopped by the church and was planning to leave with his 2-year-old son when he heard commotion.
"All I really saw was a lot of people panicking, running, and that gave me the instinct that there was a gun somewhere," he said. "Everything was so fast."
He said he swept his son into his arms, ran back to his father's office and locked the doors.
Police responded to an emergency call within about five minutes, he said.
Jointer said he was told later that there was a fight between the victim and the shooter before the funeral. He said, however, that he did not see the shooting or the victim.
He said about 50 people were at the funeral service, and no one else was injured.
Both Jointer and his 36-year-old sister, Lakeesha, who are members of New Hope Missionary Baptist Church, said the church has many faithful members.
"I'm sure they'll be shocked," Lakeesha Jointer said. "Nothing like this has ever happened before."
Helen Flynn of Beaverton has been a member for 17 years and attends weekly with her 9-year-old grandson. About 150 people attend Sunday service, she said, and many have been members for decades.
She was shocked to learn of the shooting, especially because the area appeared to be improving.
"The first thing we're going to do is pray," Flynn, 64, said.
Then she shook her head:
"That's too bad ... I used to say we don't have any of that, but I guess we do now."

Apple MacBook - TriBook

And portable the triBook is: the conceptual rendering, picked up by Mac|Life, calls for a notebook that’s 10 inches wide and a little over six inches long. Click on through for more information than you’d ever want to know about the triBook concept.
From Mac|Life:
The MacBook Air is about as sexy as a notebook gets. Just try pulling one out in a crowd. First comes the oohing, and then the ahhing, and then—sorry, but yes—the borderline-inappropriate fondling. There’s just something about the Air’s katana-thin profile that demands hands-on attention. People need to touch it, and open it, and prove to themselves that it is indeed a functional computer. But the honeymoon doesn’t last forever. The Air is the perfect computer for a very particular user, but it’s not perfect in toto. No optical drive. No FireWire. The hard drive—anemic. And while the Air’s height is essentially nonexistent, its width-depth footprint is still a bulkmeister. In a lot of book bags and backpacks, the Air is as awkward a fit as any traditional notebook.
Thus the triBook. At first glance, it’s not quite as spectacular looking as the Air, but its amazing story literally unfolds as you put it to use.
At a mere 6.75 inches deep, 10 inches wide, and about an inch tall, the triBook strikes a modest profile–it easily slips into most purses and man bags and completely disappears inside any book bag or backpack. But while portability is nice, it’s typically achieved at the expense of utility, and this is where the triBook is a triumph. When the triBook’s lid is closed, the two side screens tuck in neatly, sandwiched between the main display and the keyboard/touchpad. And when it’s time to use the machine, you lift the lid and unfold the side panels, just as if you were unfolding a cardboard box.
When the two side screens are fully unfolded to form a flat plane with the center screen, you’re left with an ultrawide landscape display of 21 diagonal inches. Indeed, not only is the triBook more portable than the Air, it also offers much more screen real estate. But have fun, play a little. The sides don’t have to pivot by a perfect 180. Cocked at a jaunty angle, each side screen can be set to form a little privacy barrier.
Now, we could claim that the triBook is Apple’s much-anticipated entry into the “netbook” market, but using the term netbook doesn’t do the machine justice. Netbooks are teeny, tiny notebooks stuffed with underpowered parts, including the most insubstantial of screens. In other words, they’re imminently portable, but really only good for surfing webpages and typing out email.
Not so with the triBook. Besides no-compromise screen real estate, the triBook comes with an 8x SuperDrive, a kick-ass hard drive, an array of I/O connectors, and a MacBook Pro-caliber CPU. All that plus a generous keyboard and an expanded multitouch trackpad that supports a whole new complement of touch gestures.
So this is it, the so-called “brick” notebook that’s been rumor-mill fodder for the last three months. An exceedingly simple but effective concept—in short, Apple to the very core.
Man gets life for Mesa girl's 2005 murder

Christopher Langin, 34, tearfully apologized to Maricopa County Superior Court Judge Teresa Sanders for the Feb. 8, 2005 slaying of Angelene Plummer, the developmentally delayed daughter of Langin's best friend.
"I'd like to thank the jury for showing me mercy and giving me a life sentence," Langin said. "I am truly sorry about what happened to Angel."
Angelene was covered with bruises from head to toe when Langin, who had been living in a trailer behind the family's house, led her father, Michael Plummer, to her body.
Jurors quickly found Langin guilty of first-degree murder, child abuse and aggravated assault on Sept. 24. They found the slaying was cruel, heinous or depraved after about 45 minutes of deliberations.
But it took jurors nearly two weeks of deliberations to spare Langin from the death penalty. Under Arizona law, that left Sanders to decide whether Langin would get life in prison with or without the possibility of parole.
Jurors said they were emotionally drained by the case and seven returned for the sentence to gain a sense of closure, even after nearly a four-month trial.
"The court notes the excessive brutality in the death of this child," Sanders said while imposing the maximum sentence available under the circumstances.
Among the reasons cited for jurors in sparing Langin from a death sentence was the lack of an explanation for what exactly happened inside the trailer while Langin babysat for Angelene.
There were no witnesses to the beating inflicted by Langin, who admitted only to pushing Angelene. Michael Plummer was sentenced to 18 years in prison a year earlier for allowing Langin, a known drug user, to baby sit the girl unsupervised for nearly 24 hours.
Langin and Plummer had been friends since high school and had used methamphetamine, marijuana and alcohol together numerous times, although Plummer said he had given up meth weeks before his daughter's murder

Mom, Dad Charged After Baby Left at Firehouse

The mother and father of a baby found abandoned in near freezing temperatures outside a fire station are charged with unlawful neglect of a child. Spartanburg County Sheriff Chuck Wright says the baby was 6 hours old when found wrapped in a towel with a body temperature of 88 degrees Friday night.
Wright says the infant has recovered and is in protective custody.
The sheriff says while a fire station is a safe haven to leave an infant, the couple were charged because they didn't make sure the baby was safe before they left.
Twenty-one-year-old Harold O'Neal was released from the Spartanburg County jail Tuesday afternoon on a $10,000 bond.
The 17-year-old baby's mother is charged as a juvenile because she was 16 last week.
Reports shed light on Pompano Beach attack

Moments before his arrest, the man accused of terrorizing couples along a stretch of Pompano Beach approached an undercover investigator and told him to be careful, that the area wasn't safe, authorities said.
That seemingly innocent gesture, though, didn't sit well with the investigator and eventually led to the suspect's arrest.
A pair of arrest reports the Broward Sheriff's Office released Tuesday outline the details of the arrest early Sunday and one of the beachside attacks.
The suspect, Donovan Bryan, 24, of Coconut Creek, remains in the Broward County Click here for restaurant inspection reports Jail without bond.Investigators say Bryan donned a shiny black mask and was armed with a black pistol when he attacked a couple about 2 a.m. on Nov. 14 as they sat on a beach bench.
At first, the attacker demanded money, so the victims turned over all they had on them, $8. The masked man said it wasn't enough and insisted that the couple have sex in front of him. Then the attacker raped the woman in front of her boyfriend, according to one of the reports.
"At night, this is a very dark area, so he may have been looking for that," said Broward Sheriff's Sgt. Glenn Bukata, who made the arrest.
Bukata became suspicious when Bryan approached him. Bukata then introduced himself as a deputy, chatted with Bryan about the recent robberies and then asked Bryan for permission to search his car. Bryan granted permission and inside the trunk, Bukata found a shiny black mask and a handgun, according to the arrest report.
On Tuesday, investigators showed the black mask to the woman attacked on Nov. 14, and she immediately began crying, they said.
Bryan is suspected of attacking at least three other couples near Briny Avenue, in the southern section of the beach, since Oct. 25. He has not yet been charged in those cases, officials said.

Please Her With Your Fingers

Wash his hands
Know what his woman likes
position him self at the right angle for entry
Different women like different things, and this is a fact I can’t preach enough, so if you’re a sexual intellectual you can be in tune to what your woman likes in the bedroom and choose the correct finger style to please your lady.
The Usain Bolt Finger - Usain Bolt is the current fastest man in the world and to honor his victory I’ve named this first technique after him. This technique is for the lady who likes it rough and fast. Take your freshly clean fingers and gently place them in her mouth to get them moist. I don’t know about y’all but I love getting my fingers sucked, especially my eleventh finger. Take your other hand and spread her legs, then place your moist fingers on her cl*t and rub in a soft circular motion, applying pressure to her lady part, occasionally rubbing your middle finger across the length of her vagina, you’ll want to gradually advance the speed of your circles. I would advise switching up the direction of your motion and also taking your fingers in and out of her from time to time.
The Roof Finger - Kneel down in front of her open legs, and insert your middle finger inside of her with your palm facing upward then rub the roof of her vagina. Continue to move your finger in and out, while tapping on the roof of her vagina, every so often rotate your finger inside of her and please her at different depths of her insides.
Take Two - You have two hands for a reason, use them. If you’re doing a good job you’ll feel her getting wetter by the minute. While one hand is inside her, take the other hand and rub on her clitoris. While you’re down there you might as well take a few licks of her lady parts, using your hands to spread it out and taste the goodness of a woman.
The Squeeze - Another thing I like to do is squeeze her lips together making sure the clitoris is popping out of the lips and rubbing on it to stimulate and turn her on. You can kiss her while you do this.
Gun Drawn Over 'Go Gators' Cheer

Bruce Cooper, 30, was arrested on charges of armed burglary with a firearm, carrying a concealed firearm, possession of a firearm by a convicted felon and aggravated assault with a firearm.
According to the Orange County Sheriff's Office, Cooper entered the woman's home through an unlocked or open door at about 5 p.m. in the Kingswood Apartments, located on Lee Road, and pointed a gun at her.
The woman and others inside the apartment told the man to leave, and he eventually complied, said deputies, who found Cooper behind the woman's apartment with a .22-caliber six-shot revolver in his back pocket.
It was later realized that Cooper is a convicted felon on multiple cocaine charges.

How To Give Her Mutiple Orgasms

It’s no secret that woman don’t get to orgasm as much as men, but there are a few things men can do that can not only bring her to the promise land over and over again. Before you read this blog there is a few things you must know. 1) All women are different and like different things. 2) You must let your partner know what it is that you like and how you like it. 3) The setting and mood has to be right because without that she won’t even get in the car to go to the promise land.
Skittles - Most woman can’t come from penetration alone, so you have to make sure the foreplay is on point. So start by kissing her, and making her fell at ease. You can do this in a lot of different ways, like letting her know you want her. A few things I like to do are pay a lot of attention to her nipples if that what she likes, chances are there is a spot on her body that she loves to have licked so lick it.
There is nothing like the taste of a woman, whether it’s her lips, her neck, ear, chest, naval or her lower lips. Kissing these places softly is what must be done, and there is no greater thing to do other than give her some head. Spread her lips, lick gentle and eat her until she comes all over your face till you look like you just won a pie eating contest
Try This:
Gradually move down w/ your fingers, intentionally brushing against her cl*t, then suck on the lips of her p*ssy. I like to take my index finger and my ring finger and push them together causing the cl*t to pop up and then massage it w/ my middle finger which I have already made moist. When you do this you can use her own lips to add to her pleasure. Tongue tap her p*ssy while you’re doing this, your tongue should move like thumper.
Tell Her What She Want To Hear: Woman are emotional beings, so talking to them and letting them know how you feel does a lot towards helping them reach an orgasm. Stroke their ego with compliments and let her know you’re enjoying the way she is making you feel. This will help her relax which is needed in order for her to get to the promise land. Also be sure you woman likes talking in the bedroom if she doesn’t do other things to turn her on, a moan can go a long way when you’re trying to get her to have another orgasm.
To F*ck Or Make Love - Not all women like being made love to, some of them like it rough. Try pulling her hair and letting her know you’re in control with a nice slap on the bum. Switch up speeds and depth, also be sure to pay attention to her body language and the sounds she is making. You sense she is enjoying a particular thing that you are doing then keep doing it. She may even tell you not to stop or right there, listen to her. Even if it doesn’t give you (the guy) the most stimulation its your goal to please her, so hair pulling, choking, soft kisses, or just calling her a dirty little b*tch might do the trick.
If you feel the urge coming on, then slow down and hold back your explosion, tonight is not about you.

Two teens found guilty in Norfolk killing, gang beatings


The verdict came about 7:30 p.m. Friday after a four-day trial in Norfolk Circuit Court. Defense lawyers had argued that Nichelle Carter and Ieshia Rountree, both 17, had been present at the beating but had run away rather than participate in the crimes.
Jurors acquitted the girls of three additional weapons charges. They are scheduled to be sentenced in February. Because they were 15 and juveniles at the time of the attacks, a judge will sentence them rather than taking a recommendation from the jury.
Prosecutor James Entas argued to jurors that both Carter and Rountree, admitted members of the Bounty Hunter Bloods gang, took part in the beating of 19-year-old James Robertson, his cousin Timothy Minter, and their friend Desmond Ashe. The men were stripped and several people took turns kicking and stomping on them in a parking lot on 16th Bay Street near Pleasant Avenue. Robertson died; Minter and Ashe escaped. Police who first arrived on the scene testified that Robertson's head was so badly injured that it appeared he had been shot.
The lynching charge stems from there having been a mob attack. Two guns were used to pistol-whip the victims.
Eight others were also charged. Entas told jurors that although Carter and Rountree may not have struck the fatal blows, their participation made them equally guilty.
"No question there's a spectrum of responsibility on this team," Entas said. "But even the cheerleaders who were there cheering on are responsible."
Defense lawyers B. Thomas Reed and Emily Munn argued that blame for the attack could be laid on one of Entas' main witnesses: co-defendant Skyler Hayward. She has already pleaded guilty to murder and other charges but has yet to be sentenced.
Hayward was the only witness to testify that Carter and Rountree had taken part in the beating and robbery, Reed and Munn said. Meanwhile, the lawyers argued, Hayward had been the one to lure the three men and set them up for the robbery by her "homeys." She pointed to Carter and Rountree to deflect blame from herself, the lawyers said.
"Ieshia Rountree and Nichelle Carter were somewhere in that parking lot," Munn told jurors. "Just being in that parking lot cannot be enough for you to convict these young ladies."
Entas countered.
"To hear each defense counsel, it sounds like the police and the commonwealth brought these two innocent girls in here and wasted your time," Entas told jurors. He walked to the defense table and pointed at the girls. "Those are not little angels. They are gang members who all participated."
Robertson's parents, who had come from Georgia for the trial, left before the verdict was announced.
Both Carter and Rountree cried at the verdict, said Commonwealth's Attorney's spokeswoman Amanda Howie. At least one spectator there to support the girls yelled out, Howie said. That woman was held in contempt of court.

Roster: You're One Of Many

The Star Player: The star player is the one who you make love to on a regular basis. This is the person who you actually spend time with outside of the bedroom. You actually have feelings for the person and enjoy talking to them about things other than sex.
The Back Up: When the star player is busy, this is the person you call for a good time. This person can carry the team when the star player just isn’t acting right in the bedroom or in your relationship. In case of an argument or if your star just isn’t available to lay it on you, this is the person you’re going to call. This person may even be better at doing certain sexual acts than the star player but overall they are in no position to be the “face of the organization”
The Skill Player: This person is the one you only allow to do one thing to you. Whether it’s oral or hitting it from the back, this is the person you call when you need or want that certain thing done.
The Rebound: The rebound is the person who may have been a star player in the past, but is now only good for one thing when no one else is available. You use the rebound after too many drinks at the club, a bad break up, or a feeling for a self esteem boost. You know the rebound person is going to give you exactly what you need for that moment and they expect nothing more.
The Bench Warmer: This is the person who you feel may have some potential but you’re just not sure, or just can’t find the time to fit this person into your schedule. You keep them active with a few phone calls or text message every now and then, but nothing major. You tend to know this person well enough to do them, but not well enough to commit and give them any quality playing time. That is until the you have no star player, your back up is no where to be found, the skill player’s skill isn’t needed and the rebound is now a star player on someone else’s roster… This is when the bench warmer finally gets their shot.
I’m not one to judge, there are a lot of people doing a lot of things in the world. I prefer one person who can satisfy my needs, a person whom I build a special bond with and have no desire to “put” anyone else in the game, but if at time when I do have a roster I make sure I have all the right protection to avoid getting injured. You should do the same.
Oculus - The Great Beast Yacht


Given the amazing economic state that we’re in, and the fact that you’re certainly one of those lucky recipients of those six-figure holiday bonuses, you’re more than ready to hear the full details behind the “Oculus.” This yacht’s unique shape “is representative of the jaw and eye socket bone structure of large oceanic fish and mammals.” What does that tell you? It’s not quite [biomimicry], but it does really look at home in the sea.Oculus is the first “design launch” of Schöpfer Yachts LLC. This 250-foot vessel was designed by E. Kevin Schöpfer, founder and owner of his namesake company. Designed to accommodate 12 guests in extraordinary comfort and style, Oculus is a long distance cruising yacht capable of speeds upwards of 25 knots. The exterior styling is representative of the jaw and eye socket bone structure of large oceanic fish and mammals. Featuring a dramatic reverse bow configuration, the yacht’s armature balances an elegant expression of symmetry and structure. In addition to the bow, Oculus also features a “low rider profile”. This slightly lowered surface allows for new side recreational areas, alternate dockage access and light cruising openness.
Lateral retractable side panels close this area when heavier wave action is indicated. The interior features of Oculus focus on a 12 foot high ceiling in the main salon, a cylindrical double height dining room, central stair and elevator tube, and seemingly anatomical ceiling and floor lighting extensions giving definition to the seating areas. The second level is the dedicated Owner’s suite.
Living areas and bedchambers are divided by a series of four freestanding tubes, which house bath and storage necessities.
Man arrested in north Mobile carjacking that resulted in shooting

Reed was taken to Mobile County Metro Jail, where he was being held without bail this afternoon. Jail records list Reed's home as being in the 100 block of Ann Street.
The incident occurred at Ann and Adams streets, Cpl. Charles Bagsby Jr., a Mobile police spokesman, said today.
Bagsby said the victim, a 34-year-old man, was in a 2004 Ford Taurus when two men unknown to him approached.
"One of the subjects shot the victim as he remained in the vehicle," Bagsby said. "The subjects then pulled the victim from his vehicle and shot him again, leaving him in the street."
Bagsby would not identify the man who was shot. No description was given of the other man involved in the carjacking, he said. The car was recovered two days later at an apartment complex in the 1200 block of Old Shell Road, Bagsby said.
Reed was arrested about 9:15 a.m. in the 300 block of Clay Street following a tip, Bagsby said.

How To Find Out Her Sex Number

1. Read the female’s mind about her sex partners, my home girl Ness says “I excluded a guy or two as the “don’t-counters” b/c it was either whack, or happened once… And at the end of it all, my number was a lie”
2. Read my guide on her actual number, because, “She probably doesn’t count you“
3. Then add 30% of whatever number she gives you,
4. Then multiply that by the time it took for her to sleep with you
5. Divide by that number by 4 and you’ll have a pretty good number of the amount of people that she slept with.

Put A Ring On Her

Back to the topic, I really respect this female’s decision to wait for the right one. She told me that she plans on being her husbands personal freak, but I can’t think of any man who want to settle with a novice in the field of being a freak. Being a sexual intellectual requires, a lot of experimenting with a long term partner or numerous partners. It takes learning your body, and trying things to see if you like it, and once you realize you like something you have to keep doing it in order to get it right. Most females will tell you that their first time sucks, and when it comes to marriage is for the rest of your life, starting it off with sex that sucks might not be sure a good idea. Especially when Tasha from down the block can do all the things you’re learning a million times better than you. Besides what if he puts the ring on your finger expecting to get a freak in the future and instead gets a dud? Worst yet, what if he can’t satisfy her sexual desire, then what?
Chances are if she does land a guy who is willing to wait he won’t be into much sexual intellectualism. I get emails from women who tell me their man doesn’t like all the sexual stuff written on here, when she loves doing porn star moves in the bedroom. Let’s face it, most men can’t compete with the sex drive of a woman, and mostly leaves the woman wanting more.
This lady whom I only know as Sunshine08 is taking a major risk, which will have a wonderful reward at the end if she’s successful, but the reality of the situation is that if waiting was the business we would all still be waiting. I believe the world has changed and sexual behavior was passed down from generation to generation and we should learn from the mistakes of our ancestors. Many people are stuck in bad, unhealthy relationships and marriages because of their family values. I say why be miserable? Don’t get me wrong I look forward to being married one day, but I would never “buy a car without test driving it first.” Sure I’ll wait until the time is right, until my boo and I have genuine feelings for one another because that’s what I want, but locking in on a long term contract based off a sales pitch or a dream? It’s not for me.
