QUOTE OF THE DAY
When tasting wine, hold the wine in the mouth for a moment or two and then either swallow it or, preferably, spit it out, usually into a spittoon. A really good wine will have a long aftertaste, while an inferior wine will have a short aftertaste.

CORRECTION
ODD NEWS
The headline on a Monday front-page story about the lawsuit against the Sigma Alpha Epsilon fraternity was incorrect. The headline should have identified the Lawrence Police Department as the subject of criticism. The KU Public Safety Office was not involved in the investigation surrounding Jason Wren's death.
Catholic priest caught shoplifting
WEST CITY, IL. — A Roman Catholic priest was accused of shoplifting butter and a sofa cover at a Wal-Mart in southern Illinois. Police arrested 41-year-old the Rev. Steven Poole on Friday. He's charged with two felony theft counts. Investigators said Poole failed to scan a $3.22 container of butter and a $60 sofa cover at a self-checkout
Poole then allegedly went to the store's bedding section, picked up a memory foam mattress and switched the pricing bar code. That caused the $145 item to be scanned for $31.
Man gets ride from mom to burglary
GROVE CITY, Pa. — A western Pennsylvania man has been ordered to stand trial on charges he burglarized a home after getting
a ride to the crime scene from his mom.
That woman, 50-year-old Judith Martin, of Cochranton, still faces a preliminary hearing Feb. 3 on conspiracy and other charges she faces in the Jan. 13 break-in allegedly committed by her son, 20-year-old Robert Martin.
Police said Robert Martin took knives, jewelry, a telephone answering machine and other items from the home in Liberty Township, Mercer County. That's about
50 miles north of Pittsburgh.
Police said a neighbor recognized Martin and they later found some of the stolen items at his mother's house.
Obese dog is now thawed and healthy
SHEBOYGAN FALLS, Wis. — A year after a "morbidly obese" dog froze to a Wisconsin sidewalk, the border collie mix has lost 40
pounds and is slowly returning to an active lifestyle.
Jiffy is still portly, but his owner said he's finally moving "like a regular dog." The dog weighed about 120 pounds when he froze to the sidewalk in December 2008 in single-digit temperatures. His dense layers of fat probably helped him survive.
Afterward a court ordered Jiffy's owner to give him up.
