Cold case detectives reopened the investigation into Elaine Doyle's death two years ago, the Daily Express reported. Strathclyde Police said a 48-year-old man was held early Friday and is expected to appear in Greenock Sheriff's Court on Monday. |
Elaine, 16, who worked for a jeweler, was last seen by friends in June 1986 after an evening at the Celtic Supporters' Club disco in Greenock. Her half-naked body was found the next morning near her home, and investigators determined she had been raped and killed. |
In 2003, detectives said they had a DNA profile of the suspected killer and asked Australian authorities for DNA samples from six men. But the trail went cold again and two years ago Operation Evergreen, a cold-case squad, appealed to the public about the killing. |

LYNDHURST-- A group of concerned citizens gathered for a panel discussion in Lyndurst Sunday evening. The topic was reversing the trend of gun violence. |
Organizers with the Ohio Coalition against Gun Violence pointed out that in 2012 there were a dozen high profile shooting incidents across the United States. Those incidents have a lot of people giving our gun laws a second look. |
Currently, 40% of gun sales are completed with no background check at all. In the state of Ohio there are no laws requiring a permit to purchase, registration or licensing of a firearm nor anything requiring guns to be childproof. |
Steve Ritchey knows there's no quick fix to gun violence. Still, he believes banning assault rifles and limiting the amount of bullets is a start. "We at the Coalition say that 10 is ple |
In recent years, the federal Fair Labor Standards Act—or one of its state law equivalents—has become the weapon of choice for plaintiff-side employment attorneys. Taking advantage of cryptic regulations, inconsistent case law and innumerable traps for the unwary, the plaintiffs’ bar has vigorously pursued class and col... |
Most employers are quite familiar with the FLSA’s executive, administrative and professional exemptions. These exemptions relieve employers of the obligation to pay overtime if the employee in question meets the duties, salary-basis and salary-level tests required to qualify as exem |
Panaji: Italy on Saturday said it expects "fair and fast" trial of its marines, allegedly involved in the killing of two Indian fishermen off Kerala coast that should be to the satisfaction of both the countries. |
"This has been a difficult issue between the two governments for the last 16 months. We are working with the Indian institutions for the investigation and trial to be concluded soon with mutual satisfaction," Daniele Mancini, Italy`s Ambassador to India, told a news agency in Goa. |
"We are expecting a fair and fast trial," he added. |
The marines issue did not touch upon the very positive public opinion about India in Italy and vice versa, which is very important, he added. |
"What we want to do is that two governments should come together more strongly after this case and I am pretty |
Next day after the launch, a panel discussion having the Afrobeat phenomenon as its theme took place at Rich Mix. The very special guests were Lemi Ghariokwu (of course), Tony Allen, Dele Sosimi, Wunmi and Rich Medina – key figures for the birth and development of Afrobeat. Paul Bradshaw from Straight No Chaser was the... |
The talk revolved around the lack of promotion of Afrobeat in today’s musical culture. Each guest has expressed his concern about the representation of African identity worldwide and how Africans themselves are now influenced by hip-hop and overlook the richness of their own cultural heritage. |
Delving into subcultures and youth culture has brought up the effect social change has had over the music industry and how the genre landscape has taken shape i |

Just a reminder for my readers: NONE of the staff or teachers of the Catherine of Siena Institute have ever been or are currently part of the “Independent Christian” movement! Nor have any of our posters on ID ever been part of it (as far as I know). |
I am writing about this movement as a journalist, not an apologist. I am describing the second largest, fastest growing, and most missionary-minded Christian community in the world today because we have to recognize their existence in order to deal with them. |
As a journalist, my job is to try and help you grasp the nature and significance of the movement. Since Independent Christianity is complicated to describe, I will spend most of my time describing and |
Hey, I'm the dude you hear on the radio and see all over Facebook. I'm married with 2 kids and more pets than the city law allows.

The Etiquette of Maternity Hand-Me-Downs |
Here’s my dilemma, which made me think of you instantly. |
It took me over a year and some Clomid to get pregnant with my son. We started working on #2 this fall, thinking it would happen when it happened and we were in no hurry. So I lent out my maternity clothes to a not-very-close friend (our husbands are good friends, we never really clicked). But I’m tiny, she’s tiny, the... |
You see where this is going. |
Now I’m pregnant, just barely, and she’s due in late May. I’m due late September and at first I thought, “this will be fine, since I won’t be showing before 20 weeks, like last time, and she’ll be having her bab |
Then towards the end of my presentation, as I was ready to humbly receive the thunderous applause that was sure to follow, one tiny lecturer sitting in the very last row raised her hand timidly, obviously afraid of offending this distinguished speaker. I, ever the warm and generous medic, puffed some more air into my a... |
I blinked. Surely it was an involuntary release of air from her nervous throat. I decided to forgive her poor frazzled nerves and answered gracefully, "Yes?" |
"Eh, I heard you Cambridge medics ah, all drunkards you know." |
Why, the poor thing was so humbled by my greatness, she didn't know what she was rambling on about. Ever the masterful conversationalist, I asked "Excuse me?" |
"I read in the newspapers o |
Icon of the Mother of God "Seeker of the Lost" |
Commemorated on February 5 |
From time immemorial, the Russian people, with faith in the all-powerful help of the Most Holy Theotokos, considered the title “Seeker of the Perishing” to refer not only to those who were dying, but to those whose souls were in danger of spiritual death. |
There are no reliable accounts of the origin of the icon, “Seeker of the Perishing.” There are, however, several wonderworking icons of this name, through which the Theotokos showed forth Her mercy to people on the very brink of death. |
In the mid-eighteenth century, in the village of Bor, Russia, a pious peasant, Thedotus Obukhov, lost his way in a blizzard on the Feast of the Lord’s Baptism. His horse became exhausted and paused on the edge of an impassable ravine. |

Johnson is scheduled to be arraigned in Cuyahoga County Common Pleas Court Dec. 23. The others are scheduled for arraignment Dec. 17. |
They say everyone is Irish on St. Patrick’s Day. You should be so lucky. Being of Irish descent myself, I suppose pretending you’re Irish one day a year is better than nothing at all. But it’s not the same as the real thing, now is it? Ha, there’s nothing like a little ethnic smack talk to get the party going. |
|Japanese Maple foliage= Eudicots| |
Acer palmatum, called Japanese Maple or Smooth Japanese Maple (Japanese: irohamomiji, イロハモミジ, or momiji, 紅葉) is a species of woody plant native to Japan, North Korea, South Korea, eastern Mongolia, and southeast Russia. Many different cultivars of this maple have been selected and they are grown worldwide for their att... |

It may have multiple trunks joining close to the ground. In habit, it is often shaped like a hemisphere (especially when younger) or takes on a... |

The Díli premiere of East Timor’s first locally produced feature film, A Guerra da Beatriz (Beatriz’s War), takes place today, September 17, 2013. The love story spans the years of Indonesian occupation and beyond (1975 – 2009): |
[confronting] the issues at the heart of modern East Timor: forgiveness, reconciliation, and justice. |
The producers, FairTrade Film and Dili Film Works, relied on fundraising to make this film possible. A crowdfunding campaign was launched on indiegogo in early 2011 and a series of weekly film screenings (announced on the Facebook page of A Guerra da Beatriz) also helped to raise funds. |
Between July 13 and 16, 1863, the largest riots the United States had yet seen shook New York City. In the so-called Civil War draft riots, the city’s poor white working people, many of them Irish immigrants, bloodily protested the federally-imposed draft requiring all men to enlist in the Union Army. The rioters took ... |
This simplest kind of wave is often called a sine wave [ˈsajn ˌwev]. (This is pretty much the graph you'd get if you plotted the results of pressing the "sin" key on your calculator.) |
Three useful things to measure about a sine wave are: |
The amplitude of a wave is the size of the pressure difference it causes. |
Amplitude is usually measured in decibels (abbreviated dB). People will hear hear amplitude as loudness. |
The wavelength of a wave is the physical distance between two comparable points in neighbouring cycles (e.g., the distance between to pressure peaks or between two pressure troughs). For phoneticians, this is the least interesting property. |
The frequency of a sine wave is how often the wave repeats itself. It is usually measured in Hertz (abbreviated Hz), sometimes also called "cy |

In the wee small hours of the morning, when most of us are working on REM sleep, Morning Edition host and reporter, Dennis Lambert busily prepares the news and information KJZZ listeners hear as they prepare for the day. He’s been doing that for KJZZ listeners since 1996. |
“While I realize the importance of providing listeners with updates on traffic, weather and breaking news, I really enjoy the ability to focus on complex, more obscure stories with in-depth coverage,” said Lambert. “That's not always possible in commercial radio, and I have KJZZ and its listeners to thank for that.” |

What a special tribute. My thoughts are with you. Big hugs. |
Beautiful photos...thinking of you... |
I can't believe it's been three years already. I'm thinking of you and your family and sending some virtual hugs. And I think the 'one flower forever' is really a beautiful idea. |
My heart is with you today, as it is every day. |
((Les)) Thinking of you and your family today. |
Les;I am thinking of you today, as I do whenever this sad anniversary comes around. Keeping your family in my prayers and a speedy recovery to your brother, your tribute to him is very touching.Linda |
We're thinking about you guys today. |
Wish you peace Lesley. |
what a beautiful tribute...I didn't know it existed. with my love and big hugs. |

(Yahoo!) - Who knew Kim Kardashian and Oprah Winfrey were new besties! At least that's what it looked like when the unlikely duo posed for a photo together, along with Kim K.'s boyfriend, Kanye West, and music mogul Diddy at a party hosted by music producer Jimmy Iovine on Saturday. |
The reality star posted the fun shot to Twitter along with the caption, "Oh no big deal." Uh, we say it's a big deal! |
So what was the reason for the big bash, including all the star-studded guests like Mick Jagger and Steven Tyler? Iovine was celebrating the birthday of his girlfriend, Liberty Ross, the 34-year-old British model who filed for divorce from Rupert Sanders in January after he got a little too cozy with Kristen Stewart. T... |

According to the experience of thousands of Australian students, Google might just be changing history. |
Back in the day it was my revisionist politics professors who took the blame for rewriting history, especially in early 1990s South Africa. At least their intentions were honourable and they were mindful of what they were doing (that’s not to say everyone agreed with them). |
Nowadays, however, it seems that it is possible to change history accidentally, carelessly, maliciously or just for fun. We’re told by the poster child of crowdsourced information, Wikipedia, that the system has the ability to heal itself and, to be fair, their track record with winkling out hoaxes is not too bad and t... |
Obesity: Does our second brain work too well? |
23.01.2012 - Video release |
Scientists from Inserm have just demonstrated how a high fat and sugar diet prevents the natural destruction of neurons from the enteric nervous system in mice. It seems that, by slowing down natural ageing of the “second brain”, this particular diet contributes to the development of obesity. This is the surprising con... |
