 Moline police arrest mother in 1992 murder of 'Baby April' 
 Moline police arrested the mother of "Baby April", a baby girl who was found dead in a bag on the banks of the Mississippi River in 1992. The Moline Police Department arrested the mother of "Baby April", a baby girl who was found dead in a bag on the banks of the Mississippi River in 1992. Twenty-eight years ago, Moline police were able to conduct DNA blood typing on the baby and in 2014, announced a warrant for the mother of "Baby April" with a DNA profile that matched. Using genetic matching and genealogy research, investigators issued a warrant for Angela Siebke's, a 47-year-old resident of Whitehall, Ohio, DNA on Dec. 1, 2020, according to a statement from the Moline Police Department. A warrant was issued for Siebke's arrest on Dec. 17, 2020. Siebke is being charged with first degree murder and is being held in Rock Island County jail on a $1,000,000 bond. When "Baby April" was found dead in 1992, Siebke was a resident of Orion, Illinois, according to the statement. Moline police used genetic genealogy, "a lead generation tool that can be used to identify human remains by tying DNA to a family or point to the likely identity of an individual whose DNA was found at a crime scene."  
 DearWebby's Tech Support Pits  From: Bianca Re: Which Font  Dear Webby, We got this big argument going at work about which font is the best. What is your opinion? Bianca  Dear Bianca Best for what ? For a casual announcement Dauphin is good. It is relaxed but very readable. For something romantic you can sacrifice readability to slow down the reader and make him or her spend more time on each word. Try Vivace BT, For business, use Trebuchet if you want to appear as a modern innovator, Zurich Ex BT if you want to appear as a trusted banker, Tunga or Tahoma for reliable business Arial for clarity and precision Lucida Console is for a techy look and also for maximum readability on poor monitors or bad printers or faxes. For web sites I recommend Arial. It is the most readable and sharpest font that is available on the most machines. Tunga might be nicer, but you can't count on everybody having it on their computer. Have FUN! DearWebby

 A 100 year old man was having a big birthday party at his nursing home. A TV crew was there to interview the man on this special day. "Please tell our audience how you managed to live so long," as the reporter. "Well, I don't ever drink and I've never smoked," replied the old geezer. "And, I make it a point to stay away from wild women." Just then, there was a loud shriek in the hall. The crew turned to see a nurse run by, followed by an agile looking, older man. The older man carried a foul smelling cigar in one hand and a glass of whiskey in the other. As he ran by, he paused for a moment, looked at the crowd and let out a hearty, "He, he, he!" and then continued his pursuit. "What was that all about?" asked the astonished reporter. Replied the old geezer, "Please excuse my father - he gets carried away sometimes!" ____________________________________________ A lady walks into the drugstore and asks the pharmacist for some arsenic. "Ma'am, what do you want with arsenic?" "To kill my husband." "I can't sell you arsenic to kill a person!" The lady lays down a photo of a man and a woman in a compromising position. The man is her husband and the woman is the pharmacist's wife. He takes the photo and slowly nods. "Sorry, I didn't realize you had a prescription." ____________________________________________ My sister landed a good job with an accounting firm, and after a while she got a generous raise. The day she found out about it, her husband picked her up from work, and they stopped for ice cream. As they continued home, my sister blurted out, "Isn't it hard to believe that I have a job that pays this much money?" Just then, she went to toss the last of her ice cream cone out the window. However, they were just passing a big truck and a gust of turbulence blew it back in and stuck it to her nose. Her husband looked at her and calmly replied, "Yes, it IS amazing!" ____________________________________________
