He got life with the first chance at parole 57 years from now (he'll be 87yo by then), all counts running consecutively (one on top of another) as opposed to concurrently (roll them all together which woulda been 30 years). If he conducts himself well, he may be allowed parole in 52 years.
A lotta people in authority positions think they can do what the want and get away with it.
He's not gonna like it in a federal penitentiary with folks that he put in there when he was one of the "boys in blue".... all of them have moms, aunts, sisters, baby daughters....It ain't gonna be pretty.

Gift Ideas for a new police officer? sm
My nephew is graduating from the Police Acad. in a couple of weeks. Does anyone have any ideas what would be a good gift? I hate giving money. I did look on line and got some ideas but I thought I would ask to see if anyone has had experience with this. TIA
No verdict yet
They said would let us know in appx 2 weeks. Said this has never happened before, been making for years now but so high-end I am sure they will definitely do something - might have to tear all out and do again. These are tiles that are shiny and not supposed to stain but they do. The room was over 8 thou so am sure will get some kind of help. BTW, still really hot here!
This was definitely the right verdict...sm
Following Sigmund Freud's theory that all psychological problems have their roots in sexuality?
Rather 'exploiting' this questionable theory!
Once you chill off, what was the verdict with the spots? nm

All this negative talk about pitbulls. I bet if one saved your as* you wouldn't be thinking negatively about them. If these dogs were mean like you say, then why are they used for police dogs? Hmmmmm think about it!
Talk to DFS, Juvenille Officer involved in the case (sm)
and if the children are appointed a CASA or Guardian Ad Litem, also make yourself known to them. When these children are taken in as wards of the court suitable family placement is always looked at. From experience I will tell you there are many, many wonderful foster-adoptive families out there just waiting for these babies.
By the way, if you are awarded custody of this child and the child does have special needs, the state will steer you towards getting assistance in getting what help you need.
It would be lovely if all the children could be kept together and sometimes this is possible. You will find out much more after the initial hearing I suppose.
Good luck to you and the children. Bless their little hearts, they only know mommy is mommy and have no idea of what a good mommy should be. I have seen children who have been physically and verbally abused and neglected by parent who still love and want to be with them. They don't know anything different.
Once again, good luck.
Report him to the police, let the police...
help you solve the problem.
It is obvious that you and your mom alone cannot do it on your own.
You are much too lenient, if you let it go on, it will not end well.

Fabric softener makes towels softer, yes, but it also makes them less absorbent. sm
Which is, after all, the function of a towel, absorbency. :-)
Yes, having him is kinda like having a
bright side. But, like he said tonight, he's leery of the car even though everything looks great. We're the kind of people who buy something after thinking it over for a long time, and even when we do that, it turns out to be a dud. This time, he bought it after crawling underneath, checking the engine, taking it for a ride, and even checking the trunk out, yet he's afraid, as I am, it will turn out to be a dud again.
We just have no luck. For instance, he plays a daily number every day. It's always off 1 digit, yet if he doesn't play, that very number he might have played would come up straight. See what I mean?
I've been with him since 1965 with a break of 2 years in between, so I know about being alone and single. You will find your Prince Charming (if there is such a thing anymore) someday. Just have to keep looking in the right places. I wish you luck and happiness.
I guess I'm just asking everyone to keep your fingers crossed for us that something will turn out right for a change.
You're being kinda mean
Funny because I am close to getting a divorce and was just thinking about this type of thing all day myself.
My son is 9-1/2 and he got an Easter basket from me and from his grandma today. My daughter is 7 - she turned 7 yesterday - had a big party and still got an Easter basket from me and her grandma today. They both had toys and candy in them - and muscial toothbrushes and new toothpaste ;-) from me. It doesn't matter at all if her birthday is near Easter - has nothing to do with it. And she is not too old!!!
Eating candy around holidays will not cause cavities - they come from poor dental hygiene and eating bad foods regularly. So, can't blame that on the Easter basket.
You are creating a feeling of competition that doesn't have to be there. If you love her, be glad for her that so many people love her. When I finally go through with my divorce, I want as many loving relationships as possible in my children's lives, whether I am comfortable with it or not, because I love them and I want them to be happy. Shouldn't you feel the same for your granddaughter?
Kinda reminds me of...
Dog the Bounty Hunter, with less cursing and more humor! No joke, first few times I watched Dog I was going "oh my gosh, Stephanie Plum!!" Books are getting so expensive these days I hesitate to buy anything new anymore, but by golly, I'll buy ANYTHING by Janet Evanovich, especially the Stephanie Plum series. I recommend them to anyone I meet who likes to read.
So...who is pulling for Ranger and who is pulling for Morelli? Joe's cool and all but I tell ya - Ranger has it going on! I really, really, really wanna see Stephanie hook up with him. I just have the feeling that Morelli is gonna cheat on her...just a matter of time. What do you all think?
my kinda desserts too...
yum!
Have to add...kinda funny to me (sm)
She also frequently calls and asks ME to come spend the weekend there too. They live an hour away. Whenever my husband(her son) is out of town she will call and say "I know you will be all alone over there and I thought you might like to come spend the weekend while he's gone." When I go, she wants to dictate everything we do, and a good portion of the time I end up sitting on the couch reading magazines. What I have recently started doing was saying, "No but you are welcome to come stay here." and she always says no, she has way too much to do!! Well,I do too! LOL!
that's kinda crazy.
she has been gone for a long time. I wonder if she's going to come back to help Jack with this mess he has created. She really is good for his character when he goes into bad things. Wonder how old Abby will be.
I'm kinda in the same boat
My 30+ year old stepson is supposed to be moving out today. Believe me, it won't last. He is the filthist person I have ever met and for his age is VERY naive and gullable. Won't be long before others see what I have been trying to tell them for years. He's lazy, selfish and totally irresponsible. It's just a matter of time before he gets a DUI. He totally disregards any advice or help my husband gives him and listens to his loser friends. If my husband lets him move back in.........that's the day I move out! I've got news for my husband....HE WILL BE PAYING MY RENT --- since he has the money to keep supporting his ADULT (and I say that loosely) children! Good riddins' to him! 
I need help --- kinda long ---
I am seriously in need of some help and I know it. I am so depressed that I cannot function anymore. My income is down so much that I am getting ready to be evicted from my rental (after losing my home earlier in the year), I am by myself all the time because I have to stay chained to this computer to try to get work as it comes in. I took an inhouse job, but figured out tonight that after gas money and buying clothes to wear to work that I am only making about $60 in 6 hours and I can do that in 2 if I am at home in front of this darn computer. However, my expenses are based on $200 a day!
I am crying all the time about everything. I can't help it. I have cried my way through 2 hours of typing tonight.. I am short tempered, the littlest things set me off.
I don't want to kill myself, but I don't think it would be a big loss "waking up dead".
I have no insurance so I cannot go to the doctor...
I have no relationship with my parents or my sisters anymore (have not spoken to any of them since Thanksgiving day). My children are driving me crazy. My son is irresponsible and out in the streets (he's 19) and I worry about what is going to happen to him and feel responsible for providing him a place to live even though he is not working.
My daughter works and has 2 kids and I feel bad because right now I cannot mentally, physically, or financially be a good "nana" to my grandbabies. Then, my daughter just called me tonight and told me that she is having a LEAP emergently and that the doctor said he is going to have to take so much it would be dangerous for her to ever have children so he is going to do a tubal while he is there... this just serves to remind me that I was supposed to be having paps every 3 months for precancer and so far it has been over 3 years because I lost my insurance and cannot afford to go to the doctor - or pay for the treatments required if I do go - and now if I got insurance, it would all be preexisting anyway...
My checking account is overdrawn by $600 because Dish network put a hold on $500 while waiting on their equipment to be returned and I did not know they were going to do that, so now the stuff that was already outstanding is bouncing and I will be probably be $1000 in the hole before it is all over...
I don't know if too much else can go wrong, but I can't handle too much more and I need some calgon or something -
sorry to unload, but ya'll are all I have right now...
What is going on with me? kinda long - sm
I feel anxious all the time about the most mundane things. This started about 8 months ago in earnest, but I have never been an easgoing person. I feel as though I am off the charts now, however. Example: Car renewal tags normally arrive in about 2 days from the time I send the check in. Four days have now passed. I am worried sick something is wrong and I will not get them back and the tags will expire. Hubby just rolled his eyes when I told him about this, and I do know that nothing is probably wrong and they are just behind this year, but I am dwelling on it and about another hundred totally mundane things right now and imaging the worst possible outcomes. It is like somebody turned on a switch 8 months ago and I cannot turn it off. Not been able to sleep without taking Ambien CR since this all began 8 months ago because I will wake up every 2 hours, be awake for 2 hours, etc., and I do not do well without my sleep. Started back on BCPs after 20 years because I thought it was perhaps hormone issues, but they have not helped much at all after 5 months. I have also had a complete physical with all kinds of biophysical testing and blood work and am in excellent health in every way. Not sure what else to do here and am really frustrated by the constant anxious state that is making me (and my poor husband!) miserable. Should I go see my PCP , a shrink, what? 
You're kinda mean.
Maybe she has a speech impediment or something. Maybe she's just not as intelligent as you are. Either way, correcting people and treating others like they're stupid isn't a good way to jack yourself up. Nice superiority complex you've got there, sweetie.
This one's kinda long
My cousin is a retired nurse. When she was old enough looking to be considered mature (ahem), there was a particular male patient on the floor who kept yanking IT out every time a female nurse came into his room. Nothing the nurses said to him seemed to matter - he just wouldn't stop. Finally they sent my cousin in to straight him out.
Nurse: You know, Mr. Overexposed, I hear you've been exposing yourself to the nurses. Just between me and you, you really ought not to do that. You know they're feeling so sorry for you.
Mr. Overexposed: They feel sorry for me? Why?
Nurse: Well, Mr. Overexposed, I wasn't going to say anything, but apparently they think it's so sad that you're so small down there...
Mr. Overexposed turned over a new fig-leaf instantaneously!
Kinda funny, I used to be...sm
I used to be horrible at spelling. I mean it was BAD! My mom actually considered getting me some special help becuase I couldn't spell quite simple words up through middle school. After that it started to get a little bit better (becuase we had Word with spellcheck lol). However, after I became an MT...that all went away. I'm still not the BEST speller in the world (use my spellcheck frequently, but that might just be from typing too fast), but I'm about 1000 times better!!! Well thats one good thing that came out of this job.
And what would the police have done? I'm sure the police sm
have a lot of things going on they have to attend to, like traffic accidents, etc. What could the police have done in this situation? Make the lady take the dog to the vet? Take the dog themself? I don't know of any policeman who would have been able to do anything except maybe give the dog's owners a ticket for allowing loose dogs to lie in the street. Yes, it's a sad situation. But it was not the driver's dog. I don't think she had any obligation whatsoever to this dog or its owners. Dogs do not belong in the street!
I'd still try the police
Chances are good the little varmint is on their radar for something else. If they do come out, and if they manage to come out often enough, maybe Mom will get po'd enough to do something about it. Or maybe he'll do something stupid enough with the cops there that they take further action.
Sweet for me... but then again I'm a "sweet kinda gal" nm

Feeling kinda blue . . .
I want to rent some funny movies to have a good laugh and try to cheer myself up - any recommendations greatly appreciated. TIA.
Kinda looks like my brain on Friday.

I need your opinion. Kinda gross.
Okay, we have had a problem with mice. H set some traps and we caught some but everytime I cooked something in the oven it stunk. So, I have not used the oven. H finally had time to remove the top part of the stove and found the problem. On top of the oven, underneath where the burners are, (that part) there were dead mice. He said babies. The insulation on top of the oven is gone. He doesn't know really what to do. He tried to get insulation from the hardware store, but was told that insulation that you use in houses won't do. He went to a place where they fix stoves and sell used ones and they say that if it smells like mice, they chunk them. I asked H if they were just saying that to sell us one of theirs. He said he did not know and he did not want think he can eat another meal cooked on that stove. We cannot really afford payments on a new one and he said not one of theirs is below $200 used. I told him well, maybe we should just rely on the crock pot and the microwave for a while. I can also can fry eggs on my waffle iron. Man, I have got cakes, bread, cookies that I so wanted to bake. H wanted to make a pizza but when I reminded him we did not have an oven, his face fell. It is missed terribly.
He did find some holes in the wall behind the stove where they (Mice) gnawed through the wall and is getting some foam as we speak, write...
What would you do? Right now, I am trying to think of things I can sell.

Yeah I kinda agree
At the last in-house job I had, there were only 2 of us (the lead MT and me) who could transcribe one particularly difficult ESL (Indian) physician. Not only did he have a thick accent, he also cleared his throat about every 3 words and had a low gravelly voice on top of it all. He was a transcriptionist's worst nightmare.
I really began to resent having 6 or 8 hours of him on a daily basis because it took a great deal of brain cells to decipher what he was saying and turn it into a clean report. It's not like the lead MT or I had some magical ability to translate him; it took work, and LOTS of it.
I often sat there with my burgeoning migraine from listening to him if the other MTs had even really TRIED to understand this guy at all, or if they gave it a half-hearted attempt and bailed. I found myself starting to really resent being stuck with this guy while the other MTs breezed through with the easy-to-understand dictators.
We were paid hourly as it was in-house, not on production, but seriously...If I could batter my brain with him for 6 to 8 hours a day, surely anyone else could have figured him out if they'd have put some effort into it.
If you can't handle the ESLs, many times I feel it's just better to find another field because they aren't going away anytime soon and those of us who can pretty much figure them out really don't want to do them for an entire shift. We like our share of brain relief, too.
The police have enough to take care of besides
a person calling them if they got a card from an unknown person?? That is not what the police are for, them out investigating a birthday card and someone else is being robbed, assulted or whatever.. My goodness, think about your answer before you do post. The person on the post seems to be a caring person. If you have emergency, then the police should be called!!
Have you tried calling the police?
I live in a quiet suburb of a larger city and the police are very strict about keeping the peace and keeping out the riff-raff. I've been here about 16 months and I've called the police about 8 times. Other neighbors also call. Nothing much gets done because the hoodlumbs are too smart to be caught red-handed. But there's a long list at the police station of how many times the cops have been called to that address.
The police should be told about this, & maybe someone in the

You can get a police escort to go with you (sm)
If you have somewhere else you can go, you can get the police to escort you to get your things.
I would call the police for sure and
state to them you feel there is abuse going on. You can remain anonymous. I once went to look at a puppy for sale and the breeder brought him out into the living room. The puppy wouldn't even come out from under the table. It was so scared. I left there thinking I'd never seen a puppy act that way and it weighed on my mind. A few days later I read in the paper this man had been arrested for cruelty to animals. Trust your instinct and report this.
definitely would call police
and file a report. Then i would inform hospital that if the ring is returned within 24 hours, no charges will be filed, no questions. Otherwise it will be vigorously pursued.
And others can't help being the niceness police.

Keep calling the police and s/m
You can get restraining orders for longer than 10 days. The initial one is always temporary. She needs to see an attorney on top of the cops. It sounds like the cops are sympathizing with him and not doing their jobs properly. The cops can verify how many times they have been called and have come out. This is what the judge needs to issue the restraining order. I would keep calling the cops and documenting EVERYTHING. This is about the only way to get him to stop. You need to do the same. It sounds like your dad has either a serious mental problem or is just a kid that never grew up and needs to get over himself. An attorney can get you more information on the restraining order, but the first time he violates it, you need to call the cops. Who cares if he takes off? The cops have an OBLIGATION to go and check it out. If he is a habitual offender of violating it, they can make him wear an ankle bracelet to track him. There are things that can be done, but only you and your mother can make it happen. You can't just sit back and take no for an answer. Be strong, otherwise you'll be dealing with this the rest of your life.
And if the police and school do not take it seriously s/m
as some small towns do, I would also call the local newspaper, television station, etc until you get the results that you want. Zero tolerance is zero tolerance no matter who it is.
Please report this to the police (sm)
This is threatening and dangerous behavior. he is not afraid to knock on your door or to leave a note. Please call the police and report this immediately.
Thought Police
Oh, heck. So she has the hots for a boy-toy. Big deal! Who cares!? She already said she's not going to do anything about it.
We all have thoughts, fantasies. I'm assuming you're human & have them too. I know I have. I just figure it's some primal response to height or face shape or jaw prominence or something else that the godhead specifically engineered in order to ensure survival of the fittest, & I just laugh & forget about it because regardless of biology, the social situation won't accommodate it. As it sounds like OP has done.
Relax, for heaven's sake. Thoughts do not abuse make.
I would probably talk to the police...sm
Maybe they could go pay him and his parents a visit.
There is no telling what my husband would do. I don't want to think about it. He would probably go to jail for beating the kid. LOL
The police can watch your car --sm
while you testify. This is not their first rodeo ride either, and probably get this all the time. Let his friends try it and get caught. Then you can testify against them too. ha ha. Glad to hear you are going!! thumbs up!
need help with puppy - Kinda gross post
I just got a 4 month old min-pin about 2 or 3 weeks ago. She was eating Iams puppy food from the person I got her from. I don't like Iams foods, so I switched her over to Royal Canin puppy (dry stuff). Well somewhere along the lines she got the runs and at first I thought it was from switching food, but it has continued and started to have blood and mucus in it. So I called the vet thinking it may be worms or something wrong. Well I took in a "specimen" and they said there was nothing wrong. They told me to do the hamburger and rice and give pepto. Well I tried that, and it cleared up at first, but now it is back even on the hamburger and rice. I don't know what to do now. Any suggestions? 
A peck on the cheek is kinda intimate.
Unless he's family, European, or flaming gay (can I say that or is that not PC?) it's a total no-no. Especially for coworkers. A handshake or a wave should have sufficed. If not any of the above reasons, you can be rest assured it was his goal to leave you with a certain feeling. Be wary.
Yeah! Kinda like I was "fixin to slap Lil Ole Me" the other day?
GUFFAW!

Just a few tips/suggestions (kinda long)
Don't think about how long it is going to take you to lose X amount of pounds. As long as you are going in the right direction, you're on the right track. Be patient. Think of it as 1/2 pound lost instead of 1 pound gained. Take one minute at a time because that's all the time it takes to consume something evil!
Try to establish some sort of eating schedule. I know things can get hectic, but if you can get in some kind of rhythm and structure, it's easier to stay on track.
Take fruit and vegies out of the hydrator and put them where you can see them when you open the fridge. If you have the time when you get home from the store immediately cut your snack veggies so they're ready to grab when you need them.
If you drink whole milk, wean yourself down to at least 1%. Obviously, no-fat dairy products, etc. are best.
Same with sodas. When I first started WW, I just couldn't do diet drinks. I just drank water for the first 4 months, but then I started out with Diet Sierra Mist or Diet Sprite. I think they have less aftertaste and eventually I was able to tolerate all diet drinks. Eliminating as much sugar as possible makes a big difference.
A couple things I really like that are pretty low-cal/fat/points are sandwiches of lettuce, tomato, sprouts, cucumbers, and dill pickles (the sandwich stuffer kind) on whole-wheat bread. Really fills me up and is tasty.
I also make taco salads with the normal taco veggies, but with fat-free sour cream and fat-free refried beans with either no meat or lean meat and lotsa salsa!
Eat high fiber-content foods. Another one of my favs is kidney beans (light and dark), garbanzo beans, green onions and vinegar. Filling, tasty, and pretty.
Also, Progresso now has 0-point soups. Whether or not you do WW, these are really low in calories and fat with a really good fiber content.
Of course, drink your water :-) and avoid alchol (a contributing factor to my recent gain -- kicked back with a couple cold ones on my only day off 'to relieve stress' -- that is coming to a screeching halt).
Plan meals as much as possible, but have some frozen dinners on hand just in case.
Oh and vegie burgers!! They aren't the greatest in the world but if you fry them in some spray rather than microwaving them and add losts of vegies, pickles, etc., they aren't too bad.
Read labels before you consume. Wake up call there :-)
And if you can, exercise. I didn't when I lost my 70 pounds, but no doubt things would have toned up a lot nicer if I had.
And don't be afraid of the people in your house (if you have them). When I started bringing in healthy food and started cooking more healthy, the only complaints were from me because they ate all my stuff!! ;-) I eventually stopped buying the previous evil food. I have to start working on that one again too...
Sorry this is so long, but you asked for tips and I didn't give you any in my other post LOL.
I'm very happy you posted. It helped me to remember and reinforce the things I need to practice again starting now.
Egss over easy...my kinda eggs!.sm
Not like I'll ever own one, but they're pretty to look at. Cat
