Man arrested after stealing mother's remains they learned from the 13- year-old girl that her uncle, Ricky Delbert Wat- son, had forced his way into the apartment. The girl said Watson had struck her with the door as he forcefully shoved it open. Watson then threw the girl back- ward into a coffee table, which injured her back and damaged the table. Watson then reportedly stole a container off a shelf, which held the cre- mated remains of his mother, who was the girl's grandmother.

BBB encourages fans to be especially cautious when purchasing tickets through third-party sites or classified advertising. Additionally, hotel scams that involve selling hotel rooms to hotels that don't exist or offering invalid hotel reservations can leave fans stranded after a hard night of celebrating a win. "Big games are known for bringing the scammers out," said Gary Almond, president of BBB serving northeast California. "If you are going to buy tickets or book a hotel online, take a few extra seconds to research who you are dealing with." Better Business Bureau advises Giants fans to use the following guidelines when looking for deals during this World Series: - Be wary of purchasing tickets from someone on the street. You may end up with tickets that have already been used or outright fakes. Five Northern California tornadoes tie state record Wednesday as part of the first series of storms of the season, but they were not expected to produce the same dangerous turbulence. ''Knock on wood, we don't expect them to be as severe,'' said Jim Mathews, lead forecaster at the National Weather Service office in Sacramento. The worst of the weather was on Monday, he said. There is a chance of showers and thunderstorms in the Central Valley through Wednesday before things dry out Thursday. A winter weather advisory was in effect for Tuesday night in the Sierra Nevada, with up to seven more inches of snow expected. Snow showers on Wednesday might add another two inches. Thunderstorms were expected again Tuesday and night's World Series opener at AT&T Park in downtown San Francisco. Austin Cross, a meteorologist with the National Weather Service in Monterey, said most of the rain should clear out by late afternoon, leaving a 15 to 20 per- cent of a downpour during the game. Monday's five confirmed tornadoes damaged dozens of homes and a handful of commercial buildings across an 80- mile swath of the northern Central Valley stretching from south of Sacramento to near Oroville, then toppled trees in the Sierra Nevada foothills north of Auburn. No injuries were reported. It was the highest number of tornadoes in one day since The continued wet weather could hit during Wednesday April Fool's Day in 1996, when five tornadoes flattened trees and barns near Stockton, Mathews said. California typically might experience one or two lower-grade twisters in a season, but the north state had 13 roar through in 2005, more than Oklahoma that year. Most are less damaging and deadly than their Midwest counterparts, Mathews said, and that was the pattern on Monday. A tornado with peak gusts up to 100 mph touched down intermittently for more than two miles south of Yuba City, knocking down fences and trees. The weather service clas- sified it and a twister in Elk Grove, south of Sacramento, as weak tornadoes. The Yuba City tornado snapped a 2 1/2 foot diameter tree at the Mallard Lake Golf Center and ripped up as many as 40 small walnut and peach trees in a nearby orchard, said John DeBeaux, Sutter County's emergency operations manager. It tore up a carport, tossed a powerboat into a neighboring field, and threw a 12 foot-by-14 foot garage door onto the roof of the Bonanza Feed store, he said. The only injury was to a horse that suffered a minor cut on its nose from flying debris, he said. A half-dozen golfers were on the Mallard Lake golf course when the tornado hit, said owner Sal Nasrawi. A tree branch hit one golf cart and high winds lifted it slightly off the ground with a panicked golfer inside before setting it down. ''You could see it, a white line coming down from the cloud and hit the ground and sort of explode,'' Nasrawi said. ''I've seen it on TV, I've seen it in movies, but it's the first time I've seen it here.'' Fifty-two homes and one commercial building were damaged in Elk Grove, said police department spokesman Officer Chris Trim. The twister punched a 20 foot-by-50 foot hole in the roof at the International Paper Co., then tore off roof tiles, knocked down fences and trees, broke win- dows and flattened garden sheds as it moved through sub- urban neighborhoods. ''It kind of peeled it back, kind of like a banana,'' paper company plant manager David Carpenter said of the roof damage. ''It was over as quick as it started.'' - Ask the seller for additional contact information to ensure you can reach them if something goes wrong Be leery of World Series scams, says BBB Championship games can often lead to counterfeit He posted a $50,000 The stolen remains Instead the idea is to let nature with the tickets or reservations.

THE PASSING PARADE While attending the Glen Miller Orchestra concert at the State Theatre (more about that in the "I Say" column this Friday) the leader of the orchestra, Nick Hilscher, paused and asked for Veterans to stand and be acknowledged. A goodly number did and the audience applauded generously. However, I was personally annoyed at his "patriotic" request. He was milking the audience…actually moral blackmailing them into this observance which is, in essence, redundant with no tangible result. All citizens are grateful for service rendered by our armed forces, and particularly mournful of those who lost their lives defending our country. That is a given. But to ask strangers to reaffirm their conviction smacks of an attempt to bond with those who thought they were merely attending a musical event. I did not stand up to be acknowledged. Whereas I am a veteran in the sense that I served in the military during the Korean Conflict, I did not face combat and did little to defend our country against communist hordes. I was drafted, went to Infantry O.C.S at Ft. Benning because I could not get into Branch Immaterial at Ft. Riley…but was very lucky to be selected for and graduate into the Medical Field Service Corps. As result, I sat out the conflict with an assignment to Alaska. So, I did not stand up in the State Theatre. "However, I have known a few veterans, such as marine Bill Davidson and bomber pilot Bob Kelley, who were the real McCoy. Here is a quote from my book "THE KNOCKING PEN" about our kill floor foreman, Skeet Flournoy, when Minch's Wholesale Meats was in operation many years ago." "One way or another, he got the job done and could be found sitting in the locker room at the close of the day, exhausted, but satisfied that he had 'got the kill out.' This employee is known in the trade as a 'company George Russell's wife and family would like to express our deepest appreciation for all of the donations to P.E.T.S., flowers, cards, food and prayers and the many kind words of encouragement and support during our recent loss. It will not be forgotten and will help sustain us in the days ahead . Sharon Russell, Kathie Stevenson, Milan Sikela, Linda Stanley, Robert Russell man'. That doesn't mean that he is anti-union. It just means that he knows who butters his bread. He is dedicated to the proposition that the company must survive. The fact that he took pride in his work is no small factor in demonstrating his worth to the company. Big Skeet Flournoy was our kill floor foreman. His first name was actually Laverne but he put that to rest early on. He didn't start out at the top, but worked his way up through various jobs at the plant. He began his apprenticeship as soon as he got out of the service at the close of World War II. He had stepped on a land mine in Italy about a year before and had been using his new artificial leg for only a short time." I nominate Sgt. Flournoy as a true veteran…in fact, he was dubbed "The Veteran" by his fellow plant employee the late Mike Savercool, and it stuck. Though long gone, here was a fellow deserving of the title, who would have felt coerced if forced to stand up in the State Theatre.
