| + | |||
| + | GREENE COUNTY A man and a woman are dead following an apparent murder-suicide at a Larkins Road home Saturday. | ||
| + | |||

| + | |||
| + | According to earlier reports,[http://xxhome.n3.com.cn/forum.php?mod=viewthread&tid=1617833 Trail Sentinels to lead night ride], a family gathering was underway when the shooting occurred. | ||
| + | |||
| + | According to court records, the pair divorced in 2009, but according to the Sheriff s Office,[http://discuz.ecshopping.com.hk/forum.php?mod=viewthread&tid=745829 Another epic collapse by the Mariners], were both living at the Larkins Road home. | ||
| + | |||
| + | Deputies, along with the Cedarville and Yellow Springs police, arrived on scene sometime around 9 p.m. Saturday after receiving a 911 call through the Greene Central Communications Center. | ||
| + | |||
| + | Deputies made emergency entry into the residence in an effort to rescue Elizabeth Carter, who was reported shot and injured inside the home with a reportedly injured James Carter. | ||
| + | |||
| + | James Carter was severely injured but died while Miami Township EMTs were rendering medical aid. | ||
| + | |||
| + | An investigation into the homicide is ongoing and could take several weeks; an official ruling on the method and manner of death will be made by the Greene County Coroner s Office.</body></html> | ||

Billy Beane makes $1 million a year and is a part owner of the Oakland A’s. Can he be lured away? Maybe by a combination of money and a new challenge.

Each major initiative will have a champion who will be a direct report to me or one of my direct reports. The champion will organize to drive a cross-company team for success, but my whole staff will have commitment to the initiative’s success. | ||

Safety is a mutual responsibility for motorists and motorcyclists alike,[http://kaz-sing.sub.jp/blog/2013/06/post-1710.html#comments Benjamin Moore Paint turns competition local], said Fox. Motorcyclists are about 30 times more likely to die in a crash than passenger vehicle occupants, so whether you are driving the family sedan, an SUV, a school bus, a delivery van, or an 18-wheeler, drivers should always be on the lookout for motorcyclists.Drivers must be aware that a motorcycle, as one of the smallest of vehicles on the road,[http://nattapong.cs.lru.ac.th/read.php?tid=163493 Cedarville launches online Bible program], can be hiding in your vehicle s blind spots. Always check blind spots,[http://ampioms.com/blog/2013/05/post-321.html#comments PUCO educates residents on energy choices_0], use mirrors and signal before changing lanes or making turns. She added, Motorcyclists have responsibilities too. Riders should obey all traffic laws and be properly licensed, alert to other drivers, conspicuous at all times, never ride impaired or distracted, and always wear a Department of Transportation-compliant (DOT) helmet and other protective gear. This safety advice is particularly timely as motorcycle fatalities in 2011 showed a continued increase to 4,[http://srv2.wiki-ins.ru/wiki/%D0%A3%D1%87%D0%B0%D1%81%D1%82%D0%BD%D0%B8%D0%BA:Milledder#USMNT_routs_Belize_in_Gold_Cup_opener USMNT routs Belize in Gold Cup opener],612. Motorcycle fatalities accounted for 14 percent of total highway deaths for the year despite motorcycle registrations representing only about 3 percent of all vehicles in the U.S. Ms. Fox offered the following tips for drivers to help keep motorcyclists safe on our roadways. Remember, a motorcycle is a vehicle with all of the rights and privileges of any other motor vehicle. The person under that helmet could be a mother, brother,[http://bestone250.wb12121.loginhost.cn/forum.php?mod=viewthread&tid=44307 Computer Troubleshooters celebrates grand opening], doctor, or friend; Always allow a motorcyclist the full lane width never try to share a lane; Perform a regular visual check for motorcycles by checking mirrors and blind spots before entering or exiting a lane of traffic, and at intersections; Always signal your intentions before changing lanes or merging with traffic; Don t be fooled by a flashing turn signal on a motorcycle motorcycle signals are often not self-canceling and riders sometimes forget to turn them off. Wait to be sure the motorcycle is going to turn before you proceed; Allow more following distance - three or four seconds - when behind a motorcycle to give the motorcyclist time to maneuver around obstacles in the roadway, or stop in an emergency; Never ride distracted.Fox said motorcyclists can increase their safety by: Wearing a DOT-compliant helmet; Using turn signals for every turn or lane change,[http://www.goutuan.net/bbs/ Legal proceedings between florist and gay couple c], even if the rider thinks no one will see it; Signaling intentions by combining hand signals and turn signals to draw more attention to themselves; Wearing brightly colored protective gear, and using reflective tape and stickers to increase conspicuity; Positioning themselves in the lane where they will be most visible to other drivers; and Never riding while impaired. Our message to all drivers and motorcyclists is: Help to share in the responsibility of keeping all road users safe, and do your part by safely sharing the road, Fox concluded.For additional information on motorcycle safety, visit http://www.nhtsa.gov/Safety/Motorcycles.

| + | == Popular hatchery king fishery opens Tuesday in northern and == | ||
| + | |||
| + | <html>The much anticipated hatchery selective chinook fishery gets underway Tuesday (July 16) in central and northern Puget Sound. | ||
| + | This is the sixth summer in a row where anglers could fish from the northern tip of Vashon Island north to Admiralty Inlet off Port Townsend. | ||
| + | “It is definitely a popular fishery,[http://www.sh-jieteng.com/plus/view.php?aid=817 Christmas in July sale set],” said Pat Pattillo,[http://39rado.sakura.ne.jp/h/blog/2013/08/post-341.html#comments Glory on the horizon for Shelby Earl], the state Fish and Wildlife salmon policy coordinator. “Last summer the number of angler trips were good, but the catch was down.” | ||
| + | “The angler trips from year to year move in a slightly different way,” Pattillo said. “When the success is way up it draws more people, and there might be a difference with a pink year versus a non-pink year, but we’ll see.” | ||
| + | Last summer the fishery started on July 16 and ended Aug. 19, and was originally supposed to continue through Aug. 31. | ||
| + | The season was closed early based on a joint decision between the state Fish and Wildlife and the tribes, due to in-season total chinook encounters estimates surpassed the preseason guideline. | ||
| + | “Last year I still feel we did a great job in monitoring the fishery, and it was very difficult to see when it is surging and it can surge quickly within a week,” Pattillo said. | ||
| + | |||
| + | In northern Puget Sound last year the total preliminary catch and effort estimates showed 11,904 boats with 24,886 anglers caught 7,073 hatchery chinook (plus 16 wild fish illegally kept), and released 6,207 hatchery and 7,071 wild chinook for a total encounter of 20,366. | ||
| + | The catch per unit effort was 0.323 last year; 0.099 in 2011; 0.197 in 2010; 0.145 in 2009; 0.242 in 2008; and 0.272 in 2007. | ||
