Google Earth Finds Woman Trapped on Deserted Island for 7 years

In 2007, Gemma Sheridan and 2 friends set out on a voyage that was to take them from their home town of Liverpool, across the Atlantic to the Panama Canal and then onwards to the beautiful island of Hawaii.

The first stage of the voyage went without incident. However, after passing through the Panama Canal and into the Pacific, things started to take a turn for the worse.

There was a huge storm that took out the boats electronics and washed her 2 friends overboard and seriously damaged her boat. Without any electronics and with a damaged boat, Gemma drifted for 17 days until she was hit by another major storm. During the storm, Gemma was knocked unconscious and the rest is history.

Gemma awoke on a beach, surrounded by wreckage from her boat.

Here is a short account of some of the things she endured:

Within the first hour I had a major panic attack. It was a disturbing feeling, being alone, isolated, so far from home without a hope.

I had been on water rations for the last 2 weeks, so finding water was the first priority. There where no pools of fresh water, so I had to rig up a contraption that drew the water away from the rock and it provided for one drop every 40 seconds. That was my water source, so it was coconuts until it rained. Not a great start.

The amount of energy everything took was massively beyond what I expected. And it was mentally taxing.

For the first 2 weeks I stayed in a mock shelter i made from debris that washed ashore. I needed to find real shelter, I found a large tree that looked perfect. I nibbled away at the bark of a tree with a giant clam shell for 11 days just to build a shelter. It might have been bomb-proof and waterproof in the end and it’s probably still standing but if I’d had a machete, just that one tool, I would have been able to build it in a few hours.

It was four weeks before I managed to light a fire – you have no idea how happy that made me.

There were eight feral goats on the island, four adults and four kids. I saw them on day one and they seemed to taunt me by coming so close I could almost touch them.

I made a bow and arrow, but this just went twang and fell on the floor. And my spear wasn’t sharp enough.

So, when the hunting tools didn’t work, I spent seven days building a coral-type trap with spikes on it and everything. I thought “Yes. This’ll do it”. It didn’t.

One day I was walking round the island looking for crabs and saw what I thought was driftwood caught up in the bottom of this tree. Then it bleated.

This goat had been eating the leaves, got its horns caught and panicked. It was a massive thing, about 45 or 50 kilos and it was meat, so I tried squeezing its windpipe but that wouldn’t do it and then I had to bash it on the head with a clam shell.

It took about 15 minutes to kill it and was quite gruesome. It showed me how far I was from being able to hunt because even though it was trapped it still took me quarter of an hour.

Fast forward a few years and everything had changed:

The physical side was tough but ultimately fine. I did a series of exercises on the beach every day – press-ups, chin-ups on a tree branch, squats with boulders on my shoulders and shuttle runs of about 300 metres.

I had managed to get to a stage when I was getting stronger.

The difficulty was elsewhere. My mind was lonely and it was begining to dawn on me that I may never be saved. Usually if you’re on a desert island and you start talking to yourself it is an indication that things are going wrong.

I had a sign on the beach that was about 10 feet high, but it had sat there all this time and nothing came of it. So I decided to go all out, I spent the next few weeks clearing space and finding materials to build a huge sign in the sand on the beach.

My hope was that perhaps a plane might fly over and see it, but in all my time on the island, I had not seen 1 single plane fly over. I didnt give up though.

Fast forward a couple more years:

I woke up 1 morning to the sound of a plane flying over me which was unusually low, I could not believe it, I thought it was a dream. I ran to the beach screaming and waving my arms like a lunatic, the plane flew over 2 or 3 more times and then dropped a small package.

Inside was a radio, fresh water, food and a small medical kit. I switched on the radio and heard the first human voice for years. We talked for what seemed like an eternity, then I asked the voice on the other end "How did you find me" to which they replied "Some kid from Minnesota found your SOS sign on Google Earth"

I didnt even know what Google Earth was, but I'm eternally in their debt now.

Colorado’s First “Driving High, Get A DUI” Commercials

Here Are Colorado’s First “Driving High, Get A DUI” Commercials
Colorado is rolling out its first major campaign reminding citizens that while recreational pot is legal (in certain doses), they’re still not allowed to drive while under the influence. Starting soon, officers will start looking for certain “tells” and characteristics of drivers who are above the 5 nanograms of THC – enlarged pupils and small body tremors. There isn’t a breathalyzer for pot so alleged offenders get a free ride to the cop shop for testing.

These commercials are expected to air starting Monday.

Malaysian: Investigators conclude flight hijacked

Malaysian: Investigators conclude flight hijacked

Posted: Mar 15, 2014 1:02 AM EDT
Updated: Mar 15, 2014 1:02 AM EDT

KUALA LUMPUR, Malaysia (AP) - Investigators have concluded that one or more people with significant flying experience hijacked the missing Malaysia Airlines jet, switched off communication devices and steered it off-course, a Malaysian government official involved in the investigation said Saturday.

No motive has been established and no demands have been made known, and it is not yet clear where the plane was taken, said the official, who spoke on condition of anonymity because he was not authorized to brief the media. The official said that hijacking was no longer a theory.

"It is conclusive," he said.

He said evidence that led to the conclusion were signs that the plane's communications were switched off deliberately, data about the flight path and indications the plane was steered in a way to avoid detection by radar.

The Boeing 777's communication with the ground was severed just under one hour into a flight March 8 from Kuala Lumpur to Beijing. Malaysian officials previously have said radar data suggest it may have turned back toward and crossed over the Malaysian peninsula after setting out on a northeastern path toward the Chinese capital.

Earlier, an American official told The Associated Press that investigators are examining the possibility of "human intervention" in the plane's disappearance, adding it may have been "an act of piracy."

While other theories are still being examined, the U.S. official said key evidence suggesting human intervention is that contact with the Boeing 777's transponder stopped about a dozen minutes before a messaging system on the jet quit. Such a gap would be unlikely in the case of an in-flight catastrophe.

The Malaysian official said only a skilled aviator could navigate the plane the way it was flown after its last confirmed location over the South China Sea. The official said it had been established with a "more than 50 percent" degree of certainty that military radar had picked up the missing plane after it dropped off civilian radar.

Why anyone would want to do this is unclear. Malaysian authorities and others will be urgently investigating the backgrounds of the two pilots and 10 crew members, as well the 227 passengers on board.

Some experts have said that pilot suicide may be the most likely explanation for the disappearance, as was suspected in a SilkAir crash during a flight from Singapore to Jakarta in 1997 and an EgyptAir flight in 1999.

A massive international search effort began initially in the South China Sea where the plane's transponders stopped transmitting. It has since been expanded onto the other side of the Malay peninsula up into the Andaman Sea and into the Indian Ocean.

The plane had enough fuel to fly for at least five hours after its last know location, meaning a vast swath of South and Southeast Asia would be within its reach. Investigators are analyzing radar and satellite data from around the region to try and pinpoint its final location, something that will be vital to hopes of finding the plane, and answering the mystery of what happened to it.

Pizza Laced With Marijuana Delivered in LA

“When the moon hits you eye like a big pizza pie -- that's the ganja.”

A Los Angeles woman says a local pizza parlor got her family hella stoned after serving them what she believes was the early bud special seasoned with whacky weed.

According to reports, Ava Farley and her three grandchildren ordered a mushroom pizza from a nearby restaurant over the weekend, but shortly after consuming it, things took a turn for the weird.

“It was a like a rush, sweating, heart beating real fast,” said Farley, adding that her buzz was nothing in comparison to the mania unleashed in her 10-year-old grandson Clintay Jones. “He started cussing, going off, talking crazy, ran out the door butt naked.”

That’s when Farley made the decision to focus her tunnel vision on a nearby phone and called for help. The family was then launched on high-speed trip to the LA County/USC Medical Center, where doctors discovered signs of marijuana intoxication in both Farley and her grandson.

Of course, being in possession of a stoned youngster is always a societal red flag, which ultimately led to hospital staff giving everyone involved the third degree in an attempt to find out how the boy got high. “They questioned him like, ‘Have you had any of this? Did you do this? Is there anything in the house? Is this normal?’ No, all we had was pizza,” said Farley.

Interestingly, Farley says neither of her granddaughters felt the stoned effects of the pizza because they picked off the mushrooms, which she believes were contaminated with marijuana, according to the police report.

During a recent television interview with Eduardo Selbero, the owner of the restaurant that sold the alleged pot pie, he expressed concern over the accusations because apparently he runs the only pizza parlor in America where none of the employees smoke weed. “No, that’s incredible, because nobody smokes marijuana right here,” he said.

Los Angeles authorities are currently investigating the incident.

Massachusetts heroin kills at least 185 people in 4 months

In the wake of the Philip Seymour Hoffman heroin overdose, the national public spotlight is continuing to shine on the heroin epidemic taking place in our country. The most recent state making headlines is Massachusetts, which reportedly has seen over 185 deaths due to heroin overdose since November 1, 2013. Even more shocking, these figures do not include the New England state’s largest cities of Boston, Springfield, and Worcester.

State police spokesman David Procopio told the Boston Globe:

We are continuing to investigate and analyze the problem in conjunction with our local police partners. We firmly believe that it is a problem that cannot be solved solely by arrests, although street enforcement is vital. Treatment and public education components are equally essential. Once we are able to gather more information we will release it to the public.

Reported Heroin Overdose Deaths by County

Berkshire: 2
Cape and Islands: 9
Suffolk: 10
Worcester: 12
Hampden: 12
Norfolk: 15
Hampshire: 19
Plymouth: 20
Essex: 22
Middlesex: 30
Bristol: 34

The statistics on the number of heroin related deaths for previous years are unavailable, as the state’s new tracking system had not yet been implemented, but Procopio was firm in his statement that these numbers reflect a significant increase in the number of heroin overdoses, and the presence of heroin in general.

Other Northeastern states like Vermont and New Jersey have been afflicted with the same issue, and one common theme in these overdose deaths seems to be the presence of Fentanyl, an extremely powerful opiate that is typically only administered in a hospital setting for surgical procedures. Drug dealers have long been notorious for mixing in other substances with illicit drugs in order to increase profits, but this particular chemical used as a cutting agent in heroin is proving to be extremely dangerous. Fentanyl essentially multiplies the strength of the purchased drug and puts users at a much higher risk of overdosing on amount that their bodies would typically be able to handle.

The chief justice of the trial court said Monday, Februrary 24th, that the state was in the midst of a public health crisis that demands a speedy, sweeping response. US Senator Edward J. Markey said Monday that heroin was “a scourge like we have never seen before.”

Important Facts about Malaysia Airlines Flight 370 You're Not Being Told About

Six important facts you’re not being told about lost Malaysia Airlines Flight 370

There are some astonishing things you’re not being told about Malaysia Airlines Flight 370, the flight that simply vanished over the Gulf of Thailand with 239 people on board.

The mystery of the flight’s sudden and complete disappearance has even the world’s top air safety authorities baffled. “Air-safety and antiterror authorities on two continents appeared equally stumped about what direction the probe should take,” reports the Wall Street Journal.

WSJ goes on to report:

“For now, it seems simply inexplicable,” said Paul Hayes, director of safety and insurance at Ascend Worldwide, a British advisory and aviation data firm.

While investigators are baffled, the mainstream media isn’t telling you the whole story, either. So I’ve assembled this collection of facts that should raise serious questions in the minds of anyone following this situation.

• Fact #1: All Boeing 777 commercial jets are equipped with black box recorders that can survive any on-board explosion

No explosion from the plane itself can destroy the black box recorders. They are bomb-proof structures that hold digital recordings of cockpit conversations as well as detailed flight data and control surface data.

• Fact #2: All black box recorders transmit locator signals for at least 30 days after falling into the ocean

Yet the black box from this particular incident hasn’t been detected at all. That’s why investigators are having such trouble finding it. Normally, they only need to “home in” on the black box transmitter signal. But in this case, the absence of a signal means the black box itself — an object designed to survive powerful explosions — has either vanished, malfunctioned or been obliterated by some powerful force beyond the worst fears of aircraft design engineers.

• Fact #3: Many parts of destroyed aircraft are naturally bouyant and will float in water

In past cases of aircraft destroyed over the ocean or crashing into the ocean, debris has always been spotted floating on the surface of the water. That’s because — as you may recall from the safety briefing you’ve learned to ignore — “your seat cushion may be used as a flotation device.”

Yes, seat cushions float. So do many other non-metallic aircraft parts. If Flight 370 was brought down by an explosion of some sort, there would be massive debris floating on the ocean, and that debris would not be difficult to spot. The fact that it has not yet been spotted only adds to the mystery of how Flight 370 appears to have literally vanished from the face of the Earth.

• Fact #4: If a missile destroyed Flight 370, the missile would have left a radar signature

One theory currently circulating on the ‘net is that a missile brought down the airliner, somehow blasting the aircraft and all its contents to “smithereens” — which means very tiny pieces of matter that are undetectable as debris.

The problem with this theory is that there exists no known ground-to-air or air-to-air missile with such a capability. All known missiles generate tremendous debris when they explode on target. Both the missile and the debris produce very large radar signatures which would be easily visible to both military vessels and air traffic authorities.

• Fact #5: The location of the aircraft when it vanished is not a mystery

Air traffic controllers have full details of almost exactly where the aircraft was at the moment it vanished. They know the location, elevation and airspeed — three pieces of information which can readily be used to estimate the likely location of debris.

Remember: air safety investigators are not stupid people. They’ve seen mid-air explosions before, and they know how debris falls. There is already a substantial data set of airline explosions and crashes from which investigators can make well-educated guesses about where debris should be found. And yet, even armed with all this experience and information, they remain totally baffled on what happened to Flight 370.

• Fact #6: If Flight 370 was hijacked, it would not have vanished from radar

Hijacking an airplane does not cause it to simply vanish from radar. Even if transponders are disabled on the aircraft, ground radar can still readily track the location of the aircraft using so-called “passive” radar (classic ground-based radar systems that emit a signal and monitor its reflection).

Thus, the theory that the flight was hijacked makes no sense whatsoever. When planes are hijacked, they do not magically vanish from radar.

Conclusion: Flight 370 did not explode; it vanished

The inescapable conclusion from what we know so far is that Flight 370 seems to have utterly and inexplicably vanished. It clearly was not hijacked (unless there is a cover-up regarding the radar data), and we can all be increasingly confident by the hour that this was not a mid-air explosion (unless debris suddenly turns up that they’ve somehow missed all along).

The inescapable conclusion is that Flight 370 simply vanished in some way that we do not yet understand. This is what is currently giving rise to all sorts of bizarre-sounding theories across the ‘net, including discussions of possible secret military weapons tests, Bermuda Triangle-like ripples in the fabric of spacetime, and even conjecture that non-terrestrial (alien) technology may have teleported the plane away.

Personally, I’m not buying any of that without a lot more evidence. The most likely explanation so far is that the debris simply hasn’t been found yet because it fell over an area which is somehow outside the search zone. But as each day goes by, even this explanation becomes harder and harder to swallow.

The frightening part about all this is not that we will find the debris of Flight 370; but rather that we won’t. If we never find the debris, it means some entirely new, mysterious and powerful force is at work on our planet which can pluck airplanes out of the sky without leaving behind even a shred of evidence.

If there does exist a weapon with such capabilities, whoever control it already has the ability to dominate all of Earth’s nations with a fearsome military weapon of unimaginable power. That thought is a lot more scary than the idea of an aircraft suffering a fatal mechanical failure.

Malaysia Airlines Flight Vanishes, Four Americans on Board

Malaysia Airlines Flight Vanishes

A Malaysia Airlines flight with 227 passengers on board - including three adult Americans and an infant - has gone missing and a search and rescue team has been deployed to locate the aircraft, a spokeswoman has confirmed to ABC News.

The Beijing-bound flight departed Kuala Lumpur at 12:55 a.m., and was scheduled to land in Beijing at 6:30 a.m., the airline said. It went missing two hours into the flight.

The airline said there are 227 passengers, including two infants, and 12 crew members on board the Boeing 777-200 aircraft.
A spokesman for Malaysia Airlines said tonight that the passengers included four adult Americans and a baby as well as travelers from Canada, Britain, Australia, France, India, the Netherlands, Russia and several other countries.
"We deeply regret that we have lost all contacts with flight MH370," the airline's chief executive officer Ahmad Jauhari Yahya said statement on Facebook.

"Malaysia Airlines is currently working with the authorities who have activated their Search and Rescue team to locate the aircraft," Yahya said. "Our team is currently calling the next-of-kin of passengers and crew."
The plane's route would take the aircraft from Malaysia across to Vietnam and China. China's state news agency Xinhua reported that the plane lost communication over Vietnam with control department in Ho Chi Minh City at 1:20 a.m. The radar signal also was lost, Xinhua reported. Those reports could not be immediately confirmed.
Malaysia Airlines said the captain of the airliner was an experienced 53-year-old pilot who had 18,365 hours of flying since joining the airline since 1981.
Meanwhile, the flight information board at the airport in Beijing indicated the flight was delayed.

No families were present at the airport as an airport official wrote on a white board near the arrivals customer service desk that families of the missing passengers should go to the Lido Hotel. The notice was put up about four hours after the plane was overdue.

"Friends and families should go to the Lido Hotel for more information," Eric Yangchao, customer service representative for Beijing International Airport, told ABC News. He said a shuttle bus was ready to take people to the hotel.

While there were no families visible at the hotel, there was a growing number media there and more than a dozen police officers.

MOM DROVE THREE KIDS INTO THE OCEAN (VIDEO)

A pregnant South Carolina woman who drove a minivan carrying her three young children into the ocean surf off Florida was charged Friday with attempted murder and child abuse, with authorities saying the children were screaming to bystanders that she was trying to kill them.
 
Bystanders and officers helped rescue 32-year-old Ebony Wilkerson and her children, ages 3, 9 and 10, from their minivan as it was almost submerged on Tuesday on Daytona Beach.
 
Volusia County Sheriff Ben Johnson said Wilkerson has denied trying to hurt her children. However, the children told investigators otherwise and witnesses said she tried to keep them from rescuing them. The windows were rolled up and the doors were locked, and one of the children tried to wrestle the steering wheel away from her, Johnson said.
 
"She told them to close their eyes and go to sleep. She was trying to take them to a better place," Johnson said.
 
One of the children lowered the windows and the siblings yelled for help, attracting the bystanders, a sheriff's office report said. Wilkerson told them "everyone was OK" but the children screamed that their mother was trying to kill them. As water rushed into the minivan, Wilkerson left the vehicle with her children inside, the report said.
 
Wilkerson was placed in custody of the sheriff's office Friday after she had been hospitalized for a mental evaluation since Tuesday. Her children were with the Department of Children and Families. Wilkerson was charged with three counts each of attempted first-degree murder and aggravated child abuse, Johnson said.
 
"You're supposed to protect your children at all costs," Johnson said at a news conference. "You're not supposed to try to kill your children."
 
Hours before driving into the ocean, Wilkerson's sister worriedly called police, saying her had talked about demons when she left her sister's house in Daytona Beach, a police report said. Her sister worriedly called Daytona Beach police.
 
After the call to dispatch, police officers stopped Wilkerson's black Honda Odyssey and she expressed fear that her husband would be coming to Florida to harm her and her children.
 
The children were sitting quietly, smiling, and showed no signs of distress, the police report said.
 
"It was clear during my conversation that Wilkerson was suffering from some form of mental illness, but she was lucid and did not provide any signs that she met Baker Act requirements," the Daytona Beach police officer said in the report.
 
The Florida Mental Health Act, commonly known as the Baker Act, allows authorities to involuntarily take people into custody if they seem to be a threat to themselves.
 
Family members told investigators that Wilkerson was in an abusive relationship and that she had come to Florida to get away from her husband, a sheriff's office report said.

George Zimmerman’s has an alleged SEX VIDEO..

George Zimmerman’s alleged sex video and shocking photos of bruises on his girlfriend reportedly emerge! According to police reports, Zimmerman's girlfriend claims he sent dirty pics of herself to her own daughter. He then told the little girl to “Ask mommie what this is.” His girlfriend claims he also attacked her and left choking marks around her neck – wait until you see the photos! Will it ever end with this guy?

George Zimmerman has been investigated by police over allegations that he sent an ‘inappropriate still shot photo from an intimate home video’ of his girlfriend and sent it to her 11-year-old daughter.
The incident dates back to the domestic dispute between Zimmerman and girlfriend Samantha Scheibe at their Florida home last November.
When Scheibe meet with the Seminole Sheriff’s Office in Sanford on November 19, 2013 to discuss the domestic violence incident ‘Scheibe also stated that George Zimmerman had sent [her] 11 year old daughter an inappropriate still shot photo from an intimate home video,’ states the police report seen by RadarOnline.
Scheibe told police that ‘some time ago’ she had made a video that was ‘sexual in nature.’
She said that Zimmerman had found the video on her cell phone and sent it to his own.
According to Scheibe, he also took a still photograph from the video - depicting her lying on a bed - which he then forwarded to her daughter’s cell phone along with the message, ‘Ask mommie what this is’.
Investigators met with Scheibe’s daughter to view the photograph, but determined that it ‘did not show anything pornographic at all’ and ‘only depicted Samantha Scheibe’s upper body and a headboard in the background.’

Zimmerman was subsequently charged with felony aggravated assault in connection with the original domestic incident with Scheibe.

She eventually dropped the charges, telling police she had ‘misspoken’ in her statements to police.

The same police report revealed that Zimmerman has a formidable one-man arsenal - including an AR-15 assault-style rifle, a shotgun and three handguns. 

According to the police report, the handguns were fully loaded when cops arrived on the scene, and Scheibe said he brandished his shotgun when she started moving belongings out of the home that the two shared.

The report showed Zimmerman owns a semi-automatic AR-15, a Keltec 12-gauge shotgun, a Walther .380 handgun, a Taurus 9mm handgun, a Glock 19 handgun, more than 100 rounds of ammunition and countless gun holsters and bags.

Authorities seized the gun collection after Scheibe called 911 last November telling the dispatcher that her infamous boyfriend was pointing a gun at her and had smashed a glass coffee table when she said she was leaving him.

Zimmerman ‘grabbed the shotgun out of the case,’ she told police, according to the report.

‘George Zimmerman then pointed the shotgun at her and asked, ‘Do you really want to do that?’ Then she said she was calling 911, the report said.

He ‘struck a glass top table in the living room using the butt of the shotgun, causing it to shatter,’ according to the report.

Zimmerman then slung the shotgun ‘over his shoulder… pushed her out of the house and locked the door behind her,’ the report said.

Police arrested the unstable former neighborhood watchman and charged him with aggravated assault, domestic violence and battery. 

Authorities issued a restraining order against Zimmerman after Schiebe further accused him of choking her during a subsequent interview with investigators, but she later dropped all charges and claimed she had been ‘intimidated’ by police.

A friend of Scheibe’s told MailOnline at the time that loved ones feared for her safety.

‘We would all talk about where the relationship was going, and we knew it would end badly,’ the woman said. ‘He is just a time bomb waiting to go off.'

Those sentiments were also echoed last year by both his estranged wife Shellie Zimmerman, who also called him a 'monster,' and Sanford Police Chief Steve Bracknell.

Bracknell famously agreed with a local’s comparison of the risk posed by Zimmerman to Sandy Hook shooter Adam Lanza.

The smiling couple was the picture of happiness when seen a few weeks later leaving a local police department after picking up the guns.

The crux of his defense for shooting the unarmed Trayvon Martin, 17, was that he couldn’t defend himself against the teen.

He also said he also forced to flee a Miami Beach after people accosted him and a $10,000 bounty was placed on his head.

GIRL ABDUCTED AFTER PEOPLE CHASED THE CAR TRYING TO SAVE HER

Body found in search for abducted girl, 10By Katherine Cavazini

updated 1:08 PM EST, Wed February 19, 2014

A 45-year-old elementary school coach is being held on suspicion of first degree murder after police in Missouri confirmed Wednesday they discovered a young female body believed to be that of missing 10-year-old Hailey Owens.

The 10-year-old was reported missing Tuesday evening after witnesses told police they saw a man in a gold-colored 2008 Ford Ranger driving down the street several times before approaching Hailey and pulling her into his truck just before 5:00 p.m.

A 45-year-old elementary school coach is being held on suspicion of first degree murder after police in Missouri confirmed Wednesday they discovered a young female body believed to be that of missing 10-year-old Hailey Owens.

The 10-year-old was reported missing Tuesday evening after witnesses told police they saw a man in a gold-colored 2008 Ford Ranger driving down the street several times before approaching Hailey and pulling her into his truck just before 5:00 p.m.

An Amber Alert was subsequently issued in Missouri, Kansas and Oklahoma around 7:00 p.m. Tuesday.

Based off of information from witnesses, including a vehicle description and license plate number, authorities were led to the suspect, 45-year-old Craig Michael Wood.

Authorities say they discovered the female body inside Wood’s home, along with signs of foul play and evidence related to Hailey’s abduction.

An official identification of the body and cause of death won’t be determined until an autopsy is complete, police said at a news conference.

“The Springfield Police Department and FBI investigators are continuing to process multiple scenes related to this crime, including the suspect’s residence,” Chief Paul Williams said at a news conference Wednesday.

At this time, investigators said they have not been able to determine a connection between Wood and the missing girl.

However, the superintendent of Springfield Public Schools told HLN Wednesday that Wood has worked for the school district since August 1998.

“He works as a paraprofessional and athletic coach at Pleasant View K-8 School,” the statement read. “His employment has been suspended until this matter is resolved.”

According to the school district, Hailey was a student at Westport Elementary and attended Bowerman Elementary last year.

“I offer my support to Hailey’s family and to our SPS community,” the superintendent said. “Students and staff at three of our schools are coping with this situation. To support these school communities directly impacted by this tragedy, I have assigned additional counseling staff and school police officers to be on hand until further notice.”  

Police said Wood refused to speak to them and asked for an attorney at the police station. HLN was unable to determine the name of an attorney representing Wood as of Wednesday afternoon.

Online records show Wood has a previous criminal history. He pleaded guilty to possession of a controlled substance in 1990 and was given a suspended execution of his sentence after completing a court-ordered drug counseling program.

“Bad things do happen,” Chief Williams told the media. “The fact that people saw something and tried to help is commendable.” 

SECOND DEATH OF CHILD , IS THIS MURDER OR FREEDOM OF RELIGION ?

SECOND DEATH OF CHILD , IS THIS MURDER OR FREEDOM OF RELIGION ?

PHILADELPHIA - February 19, 2013 (WPVI) -- A couple who believed in faith-healing were sentenced Wednesday to 3½ to seven years in prison in the death of a second child who never saw a doctor despite being stricken with pneumonia.

Herbert and Catherine Schaible defied a court order to get medical care for their children after their 2-year-old son, Kent, died in 2009. Instead, they tried to comfort and pray over 8-month-old Brandon last year as he, too, died of treatable pneumonia.

"My religious beliefs are that you should pray, and not have to use medicine. But because it is against the law, then whatever sentence you give me, I will accept," Catherine Schaible, 44, told the judge. She added that her beliefs have since changed.

The Schaibles are third-generation members of an insular Pentecostal community, the First Century Gospel Church in northeast Philadelphia, where they also taught at the church school. They have seven surviving children.

Judge Benjamin Lerner rejected defense claims that their religious beliefs "clashed" with the 2011 court order to get annual checkups and call a doctor if a child became ill. The order came after a jury convicted them of involuntary manslaughter in Kent's death, and they were sentenced to 10 years of probation.

"April of 2013 wasn't Brandon's time to die," Lerner said, noting the violence committed throughout human history in the name of religion. "You've killed two of your children. ... Not God. Not your church. Not religious devotion. You."

Experts say about a dozen U.S. children die in faith-healing cases each year.

The Schaibles are the rare couple to lose a second child that way. Their pastor, Nelson Clark, blamed Kent's death on a "spiritual lack" in the parents' lives, and insisted they would never seek medical care, even if another child was dying.

"It was so foreseeable to me that this was going to happen," said Assistant District Attorney Joanne Pescatore, who prosecuted both cases. "Everybody in the system failed these children."

After the first death, she and public defender Mythri Jayaraman agreed that the couple's beliefs were so ingrained that their children remained at risk. They asked the earlier judge to have the family supervised by a Department of Human Services caseworker. Instead, the judge assigned them to probation officers, who are not trained to monitor children's welfare.

Pescatore has called Brandon's symptoms "eerily similar" to Kent's. They included labored breathing and a refusal to eat.

In his police statement last year, Herbert Schaible, 45, said, "We believe in divine healing, that Jesus shed blood for our healing and that he died on the cross to break the devil's power."

The Schaibles pleaded no contest to third-degree murder in Brandon's death, and faced a maximum 20- to 40-year term. Pescatore asked for eight to 16 years, while Jayaraman sought less than two years for Catherine Schaible.

"I didn't know what to do when Brandon was sick, because it was much quicker," said Catherine Schaible, who said he died within a few days. "The D.A. is actually right. I feel like I failed as a mother because they're not alive."

Herbert Schaible has already served about a year, while his wife has been free on bail.

A videotape played in court showed her on a weekly supervised visit, when she brought her children their favorite meals, along with games and birthday treats. Six of them are now in foster care, some with relatives. They attend public schools for the first time, and are getting medical, dental and vision care. Several now wear glasses.

The oldest child, who is 18, sat in court with his grandparents, the family pastor and other supporters. They listened as Herbert Schaible's lawyer called the patriarch "a good man, a righteous man, a spiritual man."

"He's still grieving the loss of his two sons," lawyer Bobby Hoof said.

PLANS FOR QUINCY CENTER REDEVELOPMENT..

PLANS FOR QUINCY CENTER REDEVELOPMENT

What has two of Boston’s most successful real estate titans running scared is an ambitious, perhaps overly so, $1.6 billion redevelopment of Quincy Center. The city and master developer Street-Works plan to remake about 80 percent of the downtown over the next decade with apartments, shops, a hotel, and office space.

Video rendering of what construction of the first phase of the New Quincy Center will look like.  ---->>>> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WO7gLZpKRbA

Quincy’s impressive commitment to economic growth and revitalization is demonstrated by becoming the first city in the state to receive District Improvement Financing (DIF). This innovative state financing program allows the city to create a district improvement financing zone in Quincy Center and use “new” tax growth generated within the defined area to fund new public work projects such as roads, parking, green space and the long awaited final phase of the Quincy Center concourse.

Steadfast in its efforts to stimulate development activity in Quincy Center, the City has also designated a Master Tax Increment Financing (TIF) program for the downtown. This means businesses investing in Quincy Center that create new jobs receive a 5% local real estate tax exemption and become eligible for a state tax credit.

Coupled with these financial incentives, the Quincy City Council has established a new Quincy Center Zoning District. Increasing the height allowances, easing density and parking requirements and a streamlined permitting process, the zoning district encourages mixed-use development that will add to the vitality of the downtown. Quincy Center Design Guidelines for the new zoning district have been adopted by the City’s Planning Board which will guide new development in the creation of a more pedestrian friendly and lively downtown. For a complete copy of the Quincy Center design guidelines please contact us. 

The completion of the Quincy Center Concourse, increasing access to and from the downtown by linking Routes 3 and 3A, will create an urban boulevard that serves as a gateway to Quincy Center and opens additional parcels of land for public or private development. Making it easier for employees, shoppers, residents and visitors to get around downtown is key to its continued revitalization.

Street-Works Development Group from White Plains, NY is the designated developer for the proposed Quincy Center Redevelopment. Street-Works has spearheaded several major mixed-use urban redevelopment projects throughout the country that blend office, residential and retail uses. 

With over 10,000 people working in downtown Quincy today, Quincy Center plays a critical role in the local and regional economy. Building on a solid base, this redevelopment effort lays claim to an exciting future for the downtown.

Man Responsible For Olympic Ring Mishap Found Dead In Russia (SOCHI)

The man responsible for operating the Olympic Rings during last night’s Winter Olympic Opening Ceremonies in Russia was found dead today.

According to local reports the body of T. Borris Avdeyev was found his hotel room early this morning with multiple stab wounds.

Avdeyev was a technical specialist responsible for the Olympic Ring spectacle, which embarrassingly malfunctioned last night. Five animatronic snowflakes were supposed to transform into Olympic Rings. The first four functioned properly but the fifth snowflake failed to change shape.

Although his body was badly mangled and the wounds were consistent with a struggle, so far officials say they don't suspect foul play.

“Sure there were stab wounds and bruises all over the body,” admits the lead investigator on the case, “But who knows what caused them. Maybe he tripped and fell on a set of knives. Right now we’re ruling this an accidental death.

“It’s terrible when accidents like this happen. But then again, maybe Mr. Avdeyev should have thought twice before he screwed up the Olympics. Accidents tend to happen to people who betray Russia.”

Despite the government’s story, fellow hotel guests reported hearing a struggle in Avdeyev’s room around 3am local time.

“There was a very loud noise last night,” Canadian bobsled member Guy Lafleur, who was staying two hotel rooms down, “I called the front desk but the phone didn't work so I went to the room where the sound was coming from and saw three big men leave the room.

I asked if there  was a problem and they told me to go back to my room. Then this morning I find out the guy inside was dead. Very scary I told the police what I saw but they told me to forget what I saw. They were very intimidating.”

Putin, The Man You Can Trust

It was reported that Vladimir Putin was visibly upset with the botched ending of the ceremony and he may have been out for blood. He stormed out of the stadium and took off in a helicopter before the media could ask him any questions.

The embarrassment of his nation could have been too much for him to handle.

“Putin loves Russia to death,” said Alexander Zhukov, the Russian Olympic Committee President. “He also loves accountability.”

While there has not been accountability from the contractors responsible for building the Olympic Village, the Ceremony was a world wide event for everyone to see. Putin may hold that to a higher level.

“If he feels the Ceremony reflects him, who knows what he’ll do to seek justice,” said Zhukov before part of a hotel ceiling crashed to the floor beside him. “All I know is Borris Avdeyev failed Russia and got what he deserved.” More of the hotel began to crumble and the interview had to be cut short.

Justin Bieber Has Pot Party On An Airplane

Yahoo! reports:

During questioning at New Jersey’s Teterboro Airport, the “Confident” singer admitted to smoking marijuana and drinking alcohol during the rowdy flight, according to a police report obtained by NBC News.

It wasn’t all peace and love though, as there was reported extreme abusive towards flight attendants from Justin’s crew.

“The captain of the flight stated that he warned the passengers, including Bieber, on several occasions to stop smoking marijuana,” the report supposedly reads. “The captain also stated he needed to request that the passengers stop their harassing behavior toward the flight attendant and after several warnings asked the flight attendant to stay with him near the cockpit to avoid any further abuse.”

The Ugly Truth: Why Everyone is Dying From Heroin

It’s an ugly truth.

Give an addict heroin and there is a chance they will die. Not because of fentanyl. But because they are an addict that is doing heroin.

Just an update, Philip Seymour Hoffman’s bag of dope didn’t have fentanyl in it. It wasn’t even too much. He was just an addict on a day that ended with the letter ‘y’. That is why he died.

37 deaths in Maryland. An abnormally large amount of deaths in Pittsburgh. Deaths in South Florida. People dying all the time from “drug overdose.” And it all has been chalked up to heroin, not just heroin though, heroin cut with fentanyl. A special potent mixture that leads to overdose and death.

We have heard so much about heroin cut with fentanyl, not only is it kind of getting obnoxious, but we all seem to have forgotten that heroin in and of itself is kind of problem. Hello!!

Forget the shit labeled Theraflu. Forget the marked baggies. Forget the relapse and tolerance crap. Just in case anyone has forgotten, heroin, all by its pretty little china white, beige or brown self, can cause you to draw in and out your last breaths on this awesome planet. All it has to be is that extra .1 or .2 (or maybe you ball hard and do a whole extra 1.0) and that does the trick.

Or maybe, just maybe, here is the kicker; It doesn’t even have to be extra at all, it could just be the next shot for no reason other than the fact that you are doing heroin. YOU ARE DOING HEROIN! And quite possibly can’t stop even if you want to. People die all the time from just good ‘ol heroin in its regular uncut form, merely because they were doing a drug that can potentially kill you. You just don’t hear about it because its usually some average guy or girl, not a celebrity, who dies alone, without 36 other deaths to make their passing newsworthy. 

Heroin, in and of itself, without being too much, without needing fentanyl, without a low tolerance, IS DANGEROUS. Heroin is going to keep killing people as long as there are people doing heroin. No one has to overdose and do too much, they just have to use the stuff. This is the truth, especially for addicts. Anyone, absolutely anyone, who is using heroin runs the risk of dying, regardless of tolerance, regardless of what it is or isn’t cut with, and regardless of how experienced they are. People die because they are addicted to a drug and the risk of dying from it is there every time they decide they want to feel better, numb out, get high, whatever. The thought of death either never enters their mind, is immediately pushed out by the desire to get high, or is ignored with an invincibility idea that you get when you haven’t overdosed yet (“It can’t happen to me.”) Maybe the idea that they could die does enter their mind, but it means nothing when you are an addict. The facts are, that death from heroin can happen just because you’re a human being that did heroin. Forget the overdose part of it all together. 

But how? 

Heroin is a potent opiate analgesic. And the disease of addiction is one that will fuck you until you’re in your grave, jail, or have decided to change your life and get sober (and even then there needs to be constant progress.) Put that combo together and you don’t need the term overdose. You might not even need the term addiction in all reality. All you really need, to die, is heroin.

Heroin not only blocks your brain from being able to register pain, it also suppresses things like your breathing while slowing your heart rate. It is a depressant. Think slow, think sloth, think sleepy. That is what heroin does. It numbs you out and slows you down, get a little too slow, and you might just stop. The heart can slowly stop beating. The lungs can slowly stop inflating and deflating. It is really simple. And it doesn’t have to be a cocktail of crap mixed with heroin to cause it. Heroin does this by itself, even in small amounts. Every time an addict uses heroin this is what happens, and the next time they decide they want to get high, could be the time their body decides to stop instead of keep on keeping on. There doesn’t need to be a bigger reason or explanation behind it. Heroin is dangerous. Every. Single. Time. You do it. Just because it’s heroin. People are NOT going to stop dying. Because people are still using heroin. And the majority of people are still using heroin because their addiction tells them need to. That my friend, is the ugly truth.
