DEATHNOTICES throughMarch2012,Scar- cello and the Kansas man discussed in computer chats the abuse of child victims. The case is part of an ongoing Homeland Secu- rity Investigations-led in- vestigation that originated in Boston. In 2010, the U.S. Attorney's Office for the District of Massachusetts and HSI Boston arrested and convicted Robert Di- duca on child pornogra- phy production charges. Forensic analysis of Didu- ca's computer led investi- gators to the Netherlands where a Dutch national was arrested and charged with production, distri- bution, and possession of child pornography, as well as the sexual assault of 87 minors. Since that time, a world- wide network of offenders has been, and continues to be, unraveled, includ- ing Scarcello. Defendants and vic- tims continue to be iden- tified around the world. To date, more than 140 chil- dren have been rescued and 43 perpetrators ar- rested worldwide as a re- sult. "The sexual exploitation of children is wrong and will not be tolerated," said Tatum King, deputy spe- cial agent in charge of HSI San Francisco. "Together with our law enforcement partners, Homeland Se- curity Investigations will bring to justice anyone involved in such heinous acts."

When I got off the bike at the air- port I cried because I was so sad to stop. I knew I had to go home because of re- sponsibilities, but we've al- ready been talking about me going back." Wheeler said she was lucky that her trip didn't in- clude any major injuries or big problems, though once while camping in a forest in Germany the police were called and they were asked to move on. "They didn't have no trespassing laws in Scot- land where we started so we just began camping along the way," Wheeler said. Sometimes with orga- nized campgrounds there were problems. Because they arrived so late in the evening, at least one man- ager was upset with them, she said. One of the worst situa- tions they came across was when Szilvasi's bicycle had spokes break and they had to trade bicycles. "He's 6'3" and I'm 5'2" and we had to load every- thing heavy on my bicy- cle," Wheeler said. "I had to ride his gigantic extra, ex- tra large bicycle frame and he had to ride my extra, ex- tra small one. We ended up being ridiculously late and got in at 2 a.m. instead of 10 p.m. We had to ride about eight miles like that." The pair ran into a storm while riding from Ft. Wil- liams to Ft. Augustus in Scotland. "I was layered up in two pairs of pants, two sweat- shirts, a long sleeve shirt, two T-shirts and a jacket," Wheeler said. "There were just hills and hills and a lot of up and down and fi- nally we get to town and see this light on. It was a bar's beer sign so we get to the pub and the only thing they had was beer and we hadn't eaten for six hours. So, we ended up having beer for dinner." Wheeler said she found English is a universal lan- guage when traveling and there were very few prob- lems finding a way to com- municate with people. Of all the places they went, Scotland was Wheel- er's favorite because the people were friendly and it was green everywhere they went, she said. The one downside was the ac- cents got harder to under- stand the farther north she went. The weirdest dish Wheeler tried was blood pudding, which is made of animal blood, liver and oats. "I didn't need to know the rest of what was in it," Wheeler said. Wheeler said she loved Belgian chocolate, which lived up to its reputa- tion. Most places had re- ally good beer and Lux- embourg was very sce- nic and old with amazing views. Her favorite dish she tried was the Hungar- ian goulash. While Wheeler is not sure where she will go next, she wants to take an- other bicycle trip through a continent — be it Eu- rope or South America, she said.

By Paul Davenport and Jacques Billeaud The Associated Press PHOENIX Arizona au- thorities confirmed Thurs- day that 11 vehicles area have been shot with bullets or other projectiles in the last two weeks, nearly all of them on freeways in the Phoenix area. The latest confirmed shooting involved a com- mercial truck whose driver reported a bullet hole in the cargo area Thursday morn- ing. The driver had been making deliveries, and wasn't sure when or where the truck was shot, Ari- zona Department of Public SafetyspokesmanRaulGar- cia said. Most of the vehicles hit since the gunfire began on Aug. 29 were traveling on Interstate 10, a main route through central and west Phoenix. No one has been seriously injured, but one bullet shattered a wind- shield, and broken glass cut a 13-year-old girl. "Any- time that you have multiple shootingsagainstAmerican citizens on a highway, that's terrorism," Department of PublicSafetyDirectorFrank Milstead said.

Dixie was formerly a resident of Red Bluff, Los Molinos, Vallejo and Redding CA. Dixie Lee Templeton was born on Dec 29, 1933 in Miller County Missouri to Nina and Arley Templeton. Nina and Arley had two children, Jewell Faye Templeton and Dixie Lee Templeton. The family moved to California in the early 1940's to work on the Shasta Dam and work in the orchards. They purchased a ranch in Los Molinos where Dixie spent her childhood, attending grade school and high school. She made many lifelong friends and gradu- ated from the Los Molinos High School in 1951. After graduation from High School, Dixie went to work for an insurance company in Red Bluff, CA. Dixie longed to go to college, however higher education for women was not the norm at that time. Dixie met her husband James "Dale" Nelson in 1955, they married in Red Bluff CA in 1956, had their first child, Twila in 1957 and second child David in 1958. Dale died tragically in Redding CA in 1959, leaving Dixie a young widow with two children. Dixie felt the welfare of her children should come first and dedicated herself to raising her children. Dixie remained in Redding CA and in the years follow- ing Dale's death became active in her community. Dixie was a founding member of the Epsilon Sigma Alpha So- rority in 1960 and later served as president. She was ac- tive in the March of Dimes and served many positions in that organization; she was active in the PTA, aided in Boy Scouts, Blue Birds and encouraged her children to be- come involved in many organizations. In the late 1960's Dixie returned to work for the State of California, first as a secretary, and later working her way into Management Services at the Department of Industrial Relations, Divi- sion of Labor Standards Enforcement. She was always an avid learned and deeply regretted that she did not have a college education, towards that goal Dixie continuously took evening classes at the local community college. In 1976 an old high school classmate re-entered Dixie's life. Robert "Bob" Stevenson asked Dixie to attend the 25th Los Molinos High School class reunion, Dixie reluc- tantly agreed. She and Bob had so much fun at the reun- ion that she re-considered her decision to remain single. Dixie and Bob were married in 1976 and she started a new chapter in her life in Vallejo Ca. They purchased a home on a hill with a fantastic view of the shipyards and Dixie set about becoming a wonderful step-mother. By all accounts she succeeded and continued to maintain her relationships with Bob's children even after he passed away in 1994. In 1997 Dixie again made a big change in her life when she moved back to her childhood town of Los Molinos CA. Once again she was back on a small ranch, watering fields, pasturing out the land for cattle and loving every minute of life on the ranch. She delighted in the families of ducks, quail, skunks, deer and other wild life that abounded around her. In 2006 Dixie decided that the ranch was too much for a single woman to handle and moved to Red Bluff. She purchased her first new home and was delighted to enter- tain her family and friends there. In late 2012, after some health concerns, Dixie decided it was time to move closer to family. She chose Washing- ton State to be close to her daughter and grandchildren. She lived independently in senior housing and progressed to assisted care. Chenoweth House was her final home. The staff there loved her and she loved them back, al- ways known for her sense of humor, she razzed everyone she came in contact with. Dixie died on August 14, 2015 in the presence of her family. It is a special privilege to be present when a loved one passes away. Mom was there to bring me into life and I was there to usher her out, the circle of life is unbroken. Preceding Dixie in death are her husbands James" Dale "Nelson (1959) and Robert "Bob" Stevenson (1994), pa- rents Nina and Arley Templeton,sister Jewell Templeton Drenon. Dixie was the last matriarch of the family, her shoes will be impossible to fill. She leaves behind her daughter Twyla Gentle (Walter) of Burbank WA, son Da- vid Nelson (Cheryl) of Mountain Home AR and her grand- children; Renee Storm (Eric) of Portland OR, Lindsey Lockwood (Jeremy) of Vancouver WA, Matthew Gentle of Burbank WA and Leanne Sherwood (Nathan) of Gon- zales LA, and great grandchildren Eva Lockwood and Hailey Sherwood. She leaves behind her beloved step children Lance Stevenson of Susanville CA, Jana Bator (Victor) of Sloughhouse CA, David Stevenson (Elaine) of Sacramento CA and Mike Stevenson (Linda) of Anderson CA and many grandchildren and great grandchildren.
