Last week, WSFA-TV reported the horrific story of a Dadeville, Alabama, kidnapping and double murder. At approximately 8:30 a.m. on Aug. 1, an Alabama driver noticed a 12-year-old girl walking alone on County Road 34, just south of Dadeville, and stopped to help her. Immediately, he alerted the police. According to court records reviewed by WSFA, the girl had been tied to a bedpost in a mobile home for at least a week, plied with alcohol to keep her in a drugged state and repeatedly assaulted by the suspect. She managed to chew through the restraints and escaped from the home while the suspect was at work. Following a grisly discovery of two decomposing corpses inside the mobile home, Jose Paulino Pascual-Reyes, 37, was arrested by U.S. Marshals in Auburn, Alabama. The Tallapoosa County Sheriffs Office charged him with three counts of capital murder and two counts of abuse of a corpse, along with one count of first-degree kidnapping, according to WSFA. Abbett said Pascual-Reyes had been living at the mobile home where the crime had occurred. However, he said he wasnt able to comment on the relationships between the girl, the individuals who had been killed and the suspect at that time. Asked about the condition of the girl, Abbett replied she was doing as well as can be expected in circumstances such as these. Were praying for her and making sure shes going to be safe and provide everything that she may need, the sheriff said. During a Thursday phone call with Abbett, Fox News learned that Pascual-Reyes is an illegal immigrant who had been previously deported. The outlet later reported that the bodies inside the mobile home had been identified as Sandra Vazquez Ceja, who was on parole pending an asylum claim, and her son, a minor, and that the sheriffs office believes Ceja was Pascual- Reyes girlfriend. The U.K.s Daily Mail reported some additional information about the case on Monday morning. According to court documents, it said, investigators believe that Pascual-Reyes killed Ceja by smothering her with a pillow, before murdering her son by hitting and kicking him. Both bodies were reportedly cut into small pieces at the joints to hide evidence, with Ceja using the address where the bodies were found on court records for a speeding ticket in April.

Here is a little secret for building arm and shoulder muscles. Three days a week works well. Begin by standing outside behind the house, and with a 5 lb. potato sack in each hand, extend your arms straight out to your sides as high as you can. This will become higher with time. Hold them there for as long as you can. After a few weeks, move up to 10 lb. potato sacks, and finally get to where you can lift a 100 lb. potato sack in each hand and hold your arms straight for more than a full minute. Next....start putting a few potatoes in the sacks, but be careful not to overdo it. _____________________________________________________ Whats in a name: 1.

So far I have not been able to do that. Andrea color> Dear Andrea W7 and before was easy to network, as you have experienced. W10, unfortunately, is brain damaged. Some networking experts supposedly have been able to network a W10 to a W7 network, briefly. But apparently it does not stay networked. Your best bet would be to buy a refurb W7. It will connect in half a minute and stay networked, the same as all your existing W7 machines. Your W10 does not have anything useful, that a W7 machine lacks, or that you would miss if you replace it with a refurb W7. If all of your machines were on W10, then supposedly networking could sorta work. Not smoothly like on a W7 network, where the other machines act like extra hard drives, but more like using a virtual (fake) common machine that all networked W10 machines have access to. You drag files to that fake machine, and the other W10 machines can copy them from there. Not smoothly at all, and nobody likes it. Have FUN! DearWebby _____________________________________________________ A little girl and a little boy were at day care. The girl approaches the boy and says, "Hey Tommy, wanna play house?" He says, "Sure! What do you want me to do?" The girl replies, "I want you to communicate your thoughts." "Communicate my thoughts?" said a bewildered Tommy. "I have no idea what that means." The little girl smirks and says, "Perfect. You can be the husband." _____________________________________________________ ___________________________________________________ >From Bea My 5 year old son was playing and was busily building up a fort in the living room. I asked him how his fort was coming along and if he would like help making it. He said " It's not a fort mom, its a dog house!" I said " Honey we don't have a dog. " To which he immediately replied " Well I think its time we got one since we do have a dog house!" ___________________________________________________ If you can help with the cost of the Humor Letter, please donate what you can!

"Since I'm responsible for you while he's gone, I can sit here. Today I'm the boss" Justin, the 4 year old, quickly piped up, "If you're the boss, you sit over there." He pointed to his mother's chair. _____________________________________________________ Pull him out before the train ran him over. They were all shouting, "Give me your hand!" But the man would not reach up. Joe elbowed his way through the crowd and leaned over the man. "Friend," he asked, "What is your profession?" I am an IRS agent," gasped the man. "In that case," said Joe, "Take my hand!" The IRS agent immediately grasped Joe's hand and was hauled to safety. Joe turned to the amazed by-standers and declared, "Never ask an IRS agent to "give" you anything, you fools!" _____________________________________________ If you can help with the cost of the Humor Letter, please donate what you can!

"Could you please spell that?" she asked.
