Police
say that a Schenectady man apparently got his phone numbers mixed up,
and that got him arrested. Richard J. Betters Jr. is facing a charge
of third-degree criminal possession of a controlled substance, a
felony, after he sent a text message of a drug offer to a Rotterdam
police detective. The detective played along with the offer and
arrested the 44-year-old man last Tuesday at the Rotterdam Taco Bell,
where Betters was found to be in possession of 20 Oxycodone pills.
Police believe Betters had the detective’s mobile number because of
prior dealings the detective had with him. Betters’ mugshot showed
facial injuries that were present when the police encountered him. He
was arraigned and ordered held on $20,000 bail.

THINGS POSITIVE PEOPLE DO DIFFERENTLY
Find something every day to look forward to. Whether it’s catching up on a favorite Netflix show, trying out a new dessert recipe, or having coffee with a friend, these things don’t have to be big. Having concrete activities to look forward to will make your days unique, distinct, and hopefully give each one a sheen of happiness.
Find something every day to look forward to. Whether it’s catching up on a favorite Netflix show, trying out a new dessert recipe, or having coffee with a friend, these things don’t have to be big. Having concrete activities to look forward to will make your days unique, distinct, and hopefully give each one a sheen of happiness.
Celebrate
the small stuff. Don’t prolong happiness. Find joy in even the
tiniest things — your favorite song coming up on shuffle, a funny
text from a friend, a beautiful sunny day — because it adds up.
Soon, you won’t have to stop and smell the roses because you’ll
be smelling them all the time.
Be
kind. When in doubt, choose kindness. Positive people look on the
bright side, sure, but they also tend to pay it forward by passing on
their positive energy to others. Giving is generous, but it also
makes the giver feel even better.
Stay
busy. “Busy” isn’t code for “stressed out of your mind.”
Instead, being busy means filling your life with fulfilling
activities. It relates back to having something every day to look
forward to. Start a hobby. Structure your weekends with fun things to
look forward to. Most of all, be proactive about keeping busy,
because living your life to the fullest is up to you.
Accept
responsibility for your actions. Being positive doesn’t mean
being delusional. By owning up to where you trip up or make mistakes,
you’re being honest with yourself. So, since you’re not hiding
from yourself, you can then…
Forgive
yourself. As much as you want to treat others with kindness, you
deserve the same treatment. Okay, so we all make mistakes, and we all
have regrets. Learn from them. Forgiving yourself will make it
infinitely easier to…
Know
when to move on, and not dwell on defeat. You gotta pick yourself
up, dust yourself off, and valiantly forge ahead. A positive person
knows that a defeat isn’t the end of the journey, but part of the
journey.
Resist
comparisons. Being positive is
far simpler when you do not set yourself against others, as we all
have separate strengths and struggles. Instead, work on achieving
your own fulfillment, which you can only find by searching
inwards–and, of course, by staying positive.
FUN FACT FOR YOU:
Share this with your friends... they'll think you're really smart!
Dead Women Can Give Birth. It’s very rare, but it has been known to happen. Called “Coffin Birth,” it’s a phenomenon that occurs when a pregnant woman delivers a child spontaneously after her death—due to gases that built up in the abdominal area, putting pressure on the mother’s uterus and forcing the baby out the birth passageway.

A 64-year-old Florida Woman is free on bond after allegedly groping and grinding upon a younger man who declined the defendant’s sexual advances and an offer to accompany her back to her residence in “The Villages,” the country’s largest retirement community. Police charge that Marrian Ann Zambrano recently got criminally frisky with an employee of a restaurant near her home. Charged with battery, Zambrano has pleaded not guilty to the misdemeanor charge and is next due in court on March 19th. According to a police report, the victim told cops that he was standing outside the closed eatery at 7:45 p.m. when the tipsy woman “grabbed him by his ‘crotch’ and began touching him in that area.” Two witnesses corroborated the victim’s account and surveillance video showed Zambrano “hugging the victim and apparently kissing his neck.” Zambrano was arrested for battery and booked into the Sumter County jail.

According
to a news report, a man melting down dental fillings inside a
Massachusetts apartment building caused fire officials to deem the
dwelling uninhabitable because of mercury contamination. Fall River
firefighters were called to Hamlet Street apartment building last
Saturday and learned a 51-year-old man had tried to melt fillings on
January 25th. The man, who received the fillings from his dentist
grandfather, thought the fillings were made of silver, but the
fillings were actually made of mercury. The man then became sick and
has been in the hospital since January 28th. The man’s girlfriend
called the building’s management company prompting fire officials
and a HAZMAT team responded to the building Saturday. WPRI reports
there were “elevated levels” of mercury in the man’s apartment
and other areas of the building. The building was deemed
uninhabitable and won’t be opened until a crew cleans up the
building. (https://bit.ly/2IaYOsX)
