"She wakes up to the man's hands inside her pajamas on her chest," said Glen Rock Police Captain Frederick Stahman.

FDA News Release: FDA Approves First Generic Risperidone to Treat Psychiatric Conditions
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration today approved the first generic versions of Risperdal (risperidone) tablets. Risperdal is an antipsychotic drug used for the treatment of schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, and other psychiatric conditions.
“This generic drug approval is another example of the FDA’s efforts to increase access to safe and effective generic drugs as soon as the law permits,” said Gary Buehler, director of the FDA’s Office of Generic Drugs in the Center for Drug Evaluation and Research.
Varying strengths of risperidone tablets, manufactured by TEVA Pharmaceuticals USA, have been approved. Specific information about the strengths approved can be found at http://www.accessdata.fda.gov/scripts/cder/drugsatfda/.
The labeling of the generic risperidone may differ from that of Risperdal because some uses of the drug are protected by patents and exclusivity.
The generic risperidone products will have the same safety warnings as Risperdal, including a Boxed Warning that cautions that older patients with dementia-related psychosis treated with atypical anti-psychotic drugs are at increased risk of death compared with those taking placebo. Risperdal, and other antipsychotic medications, are not FDA-approved to treat dementia-related psychosis. The decision to use antipsychotic medications in the treatment of patients with symptoms of dementia is left to the discretion of the physician. Such use is often called "off-label" use and falls within the practice of medicine.

Link: America's Shrinking Food Wraps - Yahoo! News.
By KATE PICKERT Mon Jun 30, 1:25 AM ET
American supermarkets are epics of excess: it often seems like every item in the store comes in a "Jumbo" size or has "Bonus!" splashed across the label. But is it possible that the amount of food Americans are buying is, in fact... shrinking? Well, yes. Soaring commodity and fuel prices are driving up costs for manufacturers; faced with a choice between raising prices (which consumers would surely notice) or quietly putting fewer ounces in the bag, carton or cup (which they generally don't) manufacturers are choosing the latter. This month, Kellogg's started shipping Apple Jacks, Cocoa Krispies, Corn Pops, Froot Loops and Honey Smacks containing an average of 2.4 fewer ounces per box.

6:15 games
OH Hara’s ( Purple team)
+15 Dog House Pub (Baby Blue)
The purple team will be
looking for their first win
of the year against the Baby Blue team. Baby blue
comes off a tough lost last night to the red team. My thoughts are when Kenny
“Sauce”Jones gets one of his dunks to drop, the baby blue team will go on a big
winning streak.. Purple team sharp shooter Earl”The Pearl”Moore needs to learn
that the object of the game is to put the ball in the basketball. I expect the
baby blue team to have no problem.
Crew Cuts (Red) +4 Jacks
Twin Bar (Blue)
So far this season Liam “little hawker” James has been playing great. He will be guarded by Ryan “Game 7"Chiodi who is known for his suffocating defense. If the red team can hit their shots and stay out of foul trouble, this could be the game of the night.
7:15 games
NY Style Pizza (Lime Green) +12 Gloucester Liquors(Orange)
The orange team comes off an upset victory last night against the dark green team. Erik “Never seen a shot he hasn’t liked” Quiksell was a big factor down the stretch. But the news that shocked everyone was that Dave Light hit the rim on a shot. First time all year that has happen. For the lime green team to stay close, they need Gordy “Rambo” Burrows to step up and hit some shots
Sal &Pats (Dark Green) +2 Schileens Pub (Grey)
Dark
Green team loss a close one last night and look to rebound against the
grey
team. My feeling is that the dark green team should of picked up Jimmy Chitwood.
He could be the missing piece the dark green team needs. I expect for the grey
team general manager Rob St. John to draw up some good plays to attack the man
to man defense of the dark green team.
8:15 games
Caps Café (Teal team) even Highland Tavern B (Maroon team
This game will come down to who can score more then 10 points.
The games are played down Johnson Blvd Sunday and Monday nights starting at 6:15. Come down have a few laughs and support the league and the sponsors.

My teenager daughter is not a gamer... Was a big Sims fan, but really
just into making the buildings with cheat code for unlimited cash...
she also put some time into Pirates of Caribean on Xbox 360.
I
recently dug out the PC game "Nick Racing" with the popular Nick Jr
characters. Game is about 8 years old, the resolution is something like
320x200 and when played full screen everything is a blocky mess.
But she's been enjoying playing it.
Long
story short... the game plays EXACTLY like Mario Kart. A classic
Nintendo game that was remade and released for the Wii system in April.
So, wanting to hold onto those dad-daughter bonding moments, I set out to find Mario Kart.

The Department of Defense announced today the death of a soldier who was supporting Operation Iraqi Freedom.Hello,
My name is Walter Sturmfels I was raised in Gloucester City and
some of my family is still living there.
One of my fondest memories as a child in Gloucester City was the Atco Lake day. It cost nothing; you were given free soda and a hoagie along with the bus ride. I will never forget the great times we had boarding the buses at the old Dixie bar on Burlington Street. Moonie Ridge paid for the entire trip.

Yes, that's right . China and Cuba are actively exploring oil fields 50 miles from Key West, Florida while U.S. companies are barred from working in this area because of U.S. policy . So, instead of allowing the most environmentally responsible companies to operate there and increase our domestic supply, China, who has a dismal environmental record, is preparing to suck our close, lucrative oil reserves dry.
Unbelievable.
Investor's Business Daily recently explained how irresponsible the Democrats have been on the energy crisis. They lay into what they consider to be the worst Congress ever for ...
~ Failing
to allow drilling in ANWR. We
have, as President Bush noted, estimated capacity of a million barrels of oil a
day from this source alone -- enough for 27 million gallons of gas and diesel.
But Congress won't touch it, fearful of the clout of the environmental lobby. As
a result, you pay through the nose at the pump so your representative can raise
campaign cash.
~ Refusing
to build new refineries. The U.S. hasn't built one since 1976, yet
the EPA requires at least 15 unique 'boutique' fuel blends that can be sold in
different areas around the nation. This means that U.S. refinery capacity is stretched so
tight that even the slightest problem at a refinery causes enormous supply
problems and price spikes. Congress has done nothing about
this.
~ Turning
its back on nuclear power. It's
safe and, with advances in nuclear reprocessing technology, waste problems have
been minimized. Still, we have just 104 nuclear plants -- the same as a decade
ago -- producing just 19% of our total energy. (Many European nations produce
40% or more of their power with nuclear.) Granted, nuclear power plants are
expensive -- about $3 billion each. But they produce energy at
$1.72/kilowatt-hour vs. $2.37 for coal and $6.35 for natural
gas.
~ Raising
taxes on energy producers. This
is where a basic understanding of economics would help: Higher taxes and
needless regulation lead to less production of a commodity. So by proposing
'windfall' and other taxes on energy companies plus tough new rules, Congress
only makes our energy situation worse.
These are just a few of Congress'
sins of omission -- all while
India , China , Eastern Europe and
the Middle East are adding more than a million
barrels of new demand each and every year. New Energy Department forecasts see
world oil demand growing 40% by 2030, including a 28% increase in the U.S.
Americans who are
worried about the direction of their country, including runaway energy and food
prices, should keep in mind the upcoming election isn't just about choosing a
new president. We'll also pick a new Congress.
If you agree with the need to let the American people know who's REALLY responsible for the sky-high gasoline prices we're seeing today, please forward this e-mail to everyone you know.
The
Department of Defense announced today the death of three soldiers who
were supporting Operation Iraqi Freedom. They died June 25 in Mosul,
Iraq, from wounds suffered when their vehicle encountered an improvised
explosive device on June 24. They were assigned to the 1st Squadron,
3rd Armored Cavalry Regiment, Fort Hood, Texas.
of a soldier who was supporting Operation Enduring Freedom.
He
ordered one hamburger, one order of French fries and one drink. The
old man unwrapped the plain hamburger and carefully cut it in half. He
placed one half in front of his wife. He then carefully counted out the
French fries, dividing them into two piles and neatly placed one pile in front
of his wife.
He took a sip of the drink, his wife took a sip and then set the cup down
between them. As he began to ea t his few bites of hamburger, the people
around them kept looking over and whispering. You could tell they were
thinking, "That poor old couple - all they can afford is one meal for
the two of them."
As the man began to eat his fries a young man came to the table. He
politely offered to buy another meal for the old couple. The old man said
they were just fine - They were used to sharing everything.
The surrounding people noticed the little old lady hadn't eaten a
bite. She sat there watching her husband eat and occasionally taking
turns sipping the drink.
Again the young man came over and begged them to let him buy another meal
for them. This time the old woman said "No, thank you, we are used
to sharing everything."
As the old man finished and was wiping his face neatly with the napkin, the
young man again came over to the little old lady who had yet to eat a single
bite of food and asked, "What is it you are waiting for?"
She answered.......
(This is great)......

Tierra Pressley, of Woodlynne, was shot to death on June 17, 2007, shortly before 2:30 a.m. The shooting occurred near 7th and Sycamore Streets in South Camden after Pressley left a neighborhood bar at 7th Street and Kaighn Avenue.

party-line vote in the General Assembly this week, Democrats approved a $32.9

scales back property tax relief and slashes funding for hospitals while failing

by Republicans. (more)
