Through further investigation, Pinehouse Lake RCMP searched a residence in the community with help from Meadow Lake Police Dog Services.
A 26-year-old Calgary woman has been charged with a number of offences after a large amount of cash and drugs were taken from a residence in Pinehouse Lake.
On Dec. 2 during a traffic stop, information was obtained by Pinehouse Lake RCMP about drugs being sold out of a house in the community, according to an RCMP news release.
As a result, police found 27 grams of suspected crack cocaine, 16 grams of suspected crack cocaine individually packaged, alongside 24 grams of cannabis resin, with the drugs valued at roughly $4,500.
Police also located $12,000 in cash and a cellphone.
The 26-year-old woman now faces charges of possession of cocaine for the purpose of trafficking, possession of cannabis for the purpose of selling and possession of proceeds of crime over $5,000.
She’s set to appear in La Ronge Provincial Court on Dec. 6.
Pinehouse Lake is located roughly 365 kilometres north of Saskatoon.
INDIANAPOLIS -- When Carleigh Hager's live-in boyfriend finally stopped beating her, police say she was covered in blood, her face was fractured and her scalp was cut open down to the skull.
Her injuries were detailed in a probable cause affidavit filed Tuesday against her boyfriend, 26-year-old Ryan Cameron. He faces felony charges of aggravated battery and strangulation for the alleged attack.
Witnesses told police the argument began at a wedding and turned violent once the couple returned home.
Hager told police she attempted to distance herself from Cameron by going into the back bedroom of the home. But, she said, he followed her and began strangling her.
She said three of their friends then pulled Cameron off of her.
Hager said she then locked herself in the bathroom – however, she says, Cameron returned and knocked the door open. Then he began beating her repeatedly and attempted to pull her tongue out of her mouth.
When police arrived, they found large amounts of blood in the bedroom and the floor and walls of the bathroom. Officers believe Hager attempted to escape through the bathroom window, which they also found covered in blood.
Doctors detailed a litany of injuries to Hager, including multiple bite marks on her chest, back, arms and face and a laceration of her forehead that exposed the skull. Her tongue appeared to have been partially ripped, and part of one ear had been bitten off.
Hager's family has created a GoFundMe page to help offset the costs of the medical and therapy bills she faces. As of Wednesday afternoon, the page had already raised more than $10,000.
A Marion County, Indiana judge issued a no-contact order Wednesday between Cameron and Hager.

Among digital media startups, Upworthy is a company that seems to be run by miracle workers.
While Buzzfeed and Business Insider took years to build their readerships, Upworthy was able to amass a comparable audience numbering in the millions, in a period of a few months.
Most people associate the site's growth with headlines like "Imagine Trying To Pay Bills On Little Money. Then Imagine They Want To Take Half Of That Away." They aren't very informative, but they create a "curiosity gap" that makes you want to click.
According to Upworthy, the headlines are only a small part of their success. The rest has to do with finding "sharable" content and then finding the language that strikes an emotional chord in the greatest number of people.
They've gotten that last bit down to a science, as seen in the following slide deck. While some of the numbers are a bit out of date, the lessons within are still incredibly useful for anyone making content meant to go viral.
Heloise: How does a hint become a hint?
Many of you often write wondering why some hints are chosen and printed in the column and others are not. For a hint to be printed in my column, it must work (yes, I do test them), it must be safe, appeal to most readers and not have been printed recently.
Friday - Travel Hint and Technology.
Each newspaper may run the column differently. Some run it every day, and others run it only certain days of the week. I would love to see how it appears in your paper. Please send me the column (preferably the whole page) from your newspaper and include your name, address and the name of your paper. I will randomly pick 50 readers to receive a Heloise pamphlet. Can't wait to hear from you!
Which fireworks are legal in the Sunshine State?
With 4th of July upon us, Americans everywhere will be shooting up fireworks to celebrate our country's independence. However, this tradition can be a dangerous one.
South Walton Fire District says under Florida law, only sparklers, approved by the Florida Division of State Fire Marshal, are legal for consumer usage.
It is illegal to use exploding and/or flying fireworks in Florida, which include: shells and mortars, multiple tube devices, Roman candles, rockets and firecrackers.
As a general guideline, anything that flies through the air or explodes is not allowed for consumer use. Floridians should not sign "waivers" in order to purchase fireworks. Signing a waiver will not clear a consumer of responsibility should you be caught illegally using fireworks, which is a first-degree misdemeanor punishable by up to one year in jail and a $1,000 fine.
There is still a risk of injury with the use of legal sparklers. When lit, some sparklers can reach temperatures between 1,300 and 1,800 degrees - at least 200 degrees hotter than standard butane lighters. For a list of hundreds of sparklers that are legal to use in Florida, as well as safety tips, visit the State Fire Marshal's web site at Fireworks Information .
The Consumer Product Safety Commission says most fireworks-related injuries occur to the hands or head, many of which were a result of misuse or malfunctions of fireworks.
A study said "Misuse included: igniting fireworks too close to someone; lighting fireworks in one’s hand; setting off fireworks improperly; having lit fireworks too close to other fireworks/explosives; and touching lit fireworks," the report states. "Typical malfunctions included: errant flight paths; early or late ignition; tip-over incidents; and blowout. In addition, debris from fireworks was involved in some of the injuries."
With a few simple precautions, you can stay safe this July 4.
The Consumer Product Safety Commission offers these tips to help you avoid the emergency room.
• Never allow young children to play with or ignite fireworks.
• Avoid buying fireworks that are packaged in brown paper because this is often a sign that the fireworks were made for professional displays and that they could pose a danger to consumers.
• Always have an adult supervise fireworks activities. Parents don't realize that young children suffer injuries from sparklers. Sparklers burn at temperatures of about 2,000 degrees - hot enough to melt some metals.
• Never place any part of your body directly over a fireworks device when lighting the fuse. Back up to a safe distance immediately after lighting fireworks.
• Never try to re-light or pick up fireworks that have not ignited fully.
• Never point or throw fireworks at another person.
• Light fireworks one at a time, then move back quickly.
• After fireworks complete their burning, douse the spent device with plenty of water from a bucket or hose before discarding it to prevent a trash fire.
A new poll shows that some 78 percent of Chinese believe Western countries intend to contain China.
Some 36.5 percent said the West intends to and have already moved to contain China. Some 41.7 percent say Western countries have such intentions but there exists no obvious action, according to a survey released by the Global Times’ Poll Center Tuesday.
The annual survey, “How Chinese people view the world,” involved telephone responses from 1,530 people from seven Chinese cities, including Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou and Changsha.
Jin Canrong, deputy dean of the School of International Studies at the Renmin University of China, told the Global Times on Tuesday that this is how the Chinese feel, following the past year’s events.
Relations between China and the US have been strained in 2015 due to issues like the South China Sea disputes and cyber security. China and Japan locked horns in disputes around the Diaoyu Islands and Japan’s attitude to face up to its wartime history.
“The US and Japan did things aimed at China, but China is not that easy to contain,” he said.
The poll also finds that some 69.4 percent consider Sino-US relations China’s most important bilateral relations. However, the number has dropped from 81.3 percent in 2009, 74.6 percent in 2012 and 72.3 percent in 2014.
Bilateral relations with Russia, Japan, and the EU ranked as China’s second, third and fourth most important diplomatic relations.
“It is no surprise to see Chinese pay more attention to Sino-US relations since it influences their lives as the two countries share common interests,” Jin said.
The survey showed that 27.8 percent agree that the South China Sea disputes have been affecting relations, while 10.5 percent think the cyber security issue soured Sino-US relations.
Other issues that may strain the Sino-US relations are the Taiwan issue, 22.6 percent, and the Diaoyu Islands, 22.1 percent.
According to the survey, 56.9 percent, most of whom are young people, are optimistic about the future of Sino-US relations while 28.5 percent believe relations will be strained.
Jin said that the positive views on the development of Sino-US relations reflect the respondents’ confidence in China.
“The conflict between China and the US is more about national interests than ideology,” Zhang Jiehai, a sociologist at the Shanghai Academy of Social Sciences, told the Global Times.
Meantime, 28.6 percent said bilateral relations with Russia are China’s second most important, and 24.9 percent said relations with Japan are the third most important.
“Sino-Russian and Sino-Japanese relations are considered the most significant neighborly relations. China and Russia have been in recent years moving in a good direction, while Japan and China are still locked in feuds, including historical issues and disputes over the Diaoyu Islands,” Zhou Yongsheng, a professor at China Foreign Affairs University, told the Global Times.
Zhou said that although Japan is China’s second largest trade partner, the disputes between the two countries involve national honor and interests, leaving most Chinese with little faith in the future of Sino-Japanese relations.
People who think relations between China and Southeast Asian countries remain important to China dropped by 2.5 percent, compared to 2014. And 53.6 percent agree that disputes in the South China Sea were the main cause of strained relations.
The survey also showed that 53.9 percent are optimistic about the future of China’s international relations, while 37.6 percent are concerned.
Hands on his hips and gnawing on his mouthpiece, LeBron James wore a look of frustration as Jarrett Jack attempted a pair of free throws with a little more than two minutes left.
James certainly wasn't expecting this, not with the way the Cavaliers had handled the Nets this season and not with the home team's struggles at Barclays Center. But there were the shorthanded Nets, hanging tight with Cleveland.
They made all the necessary plays to pull out a 106-98 victory Friday night, winning for the fifth time in their past seven games and remaining a half-game behind the eighth-place Celtics in the Eastern Conference race.
"It's a huge win for us, man," said Deron Williams, who had five points, five assists, five steals and five turnovers and didn't play at all in the fourth quarter as Lionel Hollins went with Jarrett Jack down the stretch again. "We just got beat by them a couple of weeks ago, so it's definitely satisfying to come back and take care of business at them. We've talked about it a lot lately, what every game means to us. So this was a big win for us."
Joe Johnson had 20 points and nine assists and Brook Lopez added 20 points and nine rebounds for the Nets (31-40), who outscored Cleveland 27-19 in the fourth quarter.
The Nets never trailed in the final quarter and got an indication that this would be their night when Johnson raised up from 26 feet and hit a three-pointer. That gave the Nets, who had only one turnover in the quarter, a 101-93 lead with 2:56 left.
Kyrie Irving had 26 points and James added 24 points, nine assists, five rebounds and five steals for the Cavs (47-27). "There's no excuses," James said. "That team over there played better than us tonight."
The Nets finish the season with eight of their final 11 games at home, where they are 13-20 this season. Said Lopez, "We've been getting better each game for six, seven games now. But we've responded, which is something we absolutely would not have done earlier in the season."
"This is a tough, top-tier NBA team that we played against tonight,'' said Jack, whose team faces the Lakers on Sunday, "and you tend to let your guard down when you play against a team who might not be playing for nothing, so to speak. So for us, we've just got to come in there and focus. This win means nothing if we go out there and kind of lay an egg on Sunday."
Notes & quotes: Looking to soften the blow of losing Thaddeus Young to a hyperextended left knee, the Nets signed forward Earl Clark to a 10-day contract Friday. He finished with seven points in 11:14. "I just tried to stay aggressive and not think too much," Clark said. "Just play basketball." Drafted 14th overall out of Louisville by the Suns in 2009, he has played for five teams in his NBA career, including a stint with the Knicks. He most recently suited up for the Chinese Basketball Association's Shandong Flaming Bulls, appearing in 19 games during the 2014-15 season and averaging 26.7 points and 10.3 rebounds in 32.9 minutes per contest. "We were looking around for somebody that could give us some offense by spreading the court and making shots," Hollins said. "He's tall and hopefully he will get some rebounds and block shots every now and then so we can keep playing the way we've been playing. I think Thaddeus has given us a little versatility and maybe he can continue to give us that versatility. But we'll just have to see how it goes."
That's the kind of effort they'll need more often as they finish the season with eight of their final 11 games at home -- a place they're just 13-20 this season -- and it's imperative they take care of business back here against the Lakers on Sunday. Now isn't the time for their trademark backstroke.

Is this Vet’s Wife Eligible for Health Insurance?
I’ve been reading your column on military.com. I’m hoping you can point me in the right direction. I am a totally and Permanently Disabled Veteran from the Vietnam era, USMC. I have full medical from the VA and the VA Puget Sound Health Care System, including the VA Community-Based Outpatient Clinic, CBOC, in Bellevue, WA, my primary care facility.
My spouse turns 62 in April, and at this time, she has no health insurance. After losing her job, and her insurance, some years ago, she has NO health care insurance at all.
I hear of Tricare, and CHAMPVA, and it’s hard for me to understand either. I need to get her some medical care insurance, and I don’t know where to go, or who I should call, or contact, to get some straight answers.
If you are a medical retiree or retiree due to 20(+) years of service, your spouse is covered by Tricare. She just needs a retiree dependent ID card and registration in the DEERS computer system at the ID card office. See this Tricare site.
Being Totally and Permanently Disabled, she is eligible for the VA CHAMPVA health care. See the VA site for more info or ask the people at your VA hospital for details.
Finally, you can shop in the new Healthcare Marketplace for a health care plan and possibly be eligible for tax credits to help purchase the plan. The same VA site above has info on the Healthcare Marketplace.
• Congratulations to my good friend Congressman Gus Bilirakis (R-FL), Vice-Chairman of the Veterans Affairs Committee, who was awarded the Congressional Silver Helmet Award by AMVETS. The Silver Helmet is one of the most prestigious awards offered by veterans’ service organizations.
“I am grateful and humbled, and, quite frankly, feel unworthy to join the ranks of some pretty incredible Americans, many of whom are my personal heroes. Indeed, it is particularly poignant for me to know that along with my father, Michael Bilirakis, a past recipient of the Silver Helmet, we are the first father-son team to be honored. This truly is a blessing,” Bilirakis said.
The Silver Helmet Award is given to individuals who demonstrate “excellence and outstanding accomplishment in the fields of Americanism, defense, rehabilitation, congressional and civil service.” Bilirakis has served on the House Veterans Affairs Committee throughout his entire tenure in the U.S. House of Representatives.
• Congresswoman Tulsi Gabbard (HI-02) recently commented on the Senate’s vote on the Military Justice Improvement Act (S. 1752). The congresswoman had introduced companion legislation in the House last year (H.R. 2016).
“Over the past year, Senator Gillibrand and I, along with a group of bipartisan members, have elevated the conversation about military sexual assault to the forefront. It is a topic that is widely misunderstood, and one that has been swept under the rug for too long. While I’m disappointed the Senate did not pass the Military Justice Improvement Act today, our fight for justice is far from over. Men and women in our uniformed ranks deserve a system of justice system that works for them, and leadership that truly has zero tolerance for sexual assault in the ranks.
Congresswoman Tulsi Gabbard’s bill has garnered wide bipartisan support in the House, including Democratic and Republican leadership.
• Military Officers Association of America (MOAA) hosted its first virtual town hall Thursday evening on MOAA’s Facebook page at http://bit.ly/moaabudgetbattle. MOAA experts shared information and answered questions.
The proposed budget impacts pay and benefits in the following areas: base pay cap below private sector pay growth, increased out-of-pocket expense for housing, reduction in savings at the commissary and changes to health care fees for currently serving family members, retirees and their families. MOAA reported the total loss in purchasing power for an active duty E-5 family of four (Sergeant) would be $4,993 per year.
For an active duty O-3 (Army Captain) family, the total loss purchasing power would be $5,890.
MOAA also reiterated the impact of DoD-proposed FY 2015 TRICARE Fees on retirees.
It’s hard to decide who are the biggest morons in this story: parents or daughter. 15 year-old Alexa Longueira was walking along Victory Boulevard in Staten Island when she fell into an open manhole.
Why didn’t she see it? You’re ahead of me here. She was too intent on tapping out a text message to notice the gaping gap in the sidewalk and just dropped straight on in. Idiotic, yes, but now Alexa’s parents are trying to blame someone else for their daughter’s stupidity while making a little money into the bargain. They’re suing the city.
