ZION, Ill. - An individual will be charged Tuesday in connection with the stabbing deaths of two girls from this town outside Chicago, police sources told the Chicago Tribune on Tuesday.
The newspaper did not elaborate. Police had earlier said they had no leads in the deaths of the second-graders, who were left to die off a bicycle path in a park.
The bodies of 8-year-old Laura Hobbs and 9-year-old Krystal Tobias, described as best friends who were always together, were discovered Monday around 6 a.m. local time by Hobbs' father and grandfather.
The grandfather, Arthur Hollabaugh, says he had searched through the night for his missing granddaughter when he spotted something in bushes part way down a ravine: a child’s bicycle.
Minutes later, he said Tuesday, his son-in-law, Jerry Hobbs, was screaming that he had found the bodies of the girls, who disappeared together on a Mother’s Day bike ride.
“I went and I seen them from a distance,” Hollabaugh, 51, told The Associated Press. “It was clear they were laying there.”
Police weren’t commenting on the case Tuesday morning, but Hollabaugh said investigators were questioning his son-in-law, Jerry Hobbs, and had also talked to Laura’s siblings about Hobbs.
Dad had been in prisonHollabaugh said Hobbs had just returned to the area about a month earlier to reunite with Laura’s mother after serving time in a Texas prison.
“Jerry just got out of prison for aggravated assault and I think they’re holding that against him,” Hollabaugh said. “I don’t think he did it.”
Hobbs could not be reached for comment Tuesday; Hollabaugh said he was still with the police.

Officials discuss caseMay 10: Constance Collins, the Zion Elementary School District superintendent, and Dr. Richard Keller, the Lake County coroner, discuss the murders in Zion, Ill., with "Today" host Katie Couric.
Today showPolice searched the family home and Hollabaugh said they took measurements of his shoe soles. “They went through our stuff, took clothes,” he said, adding that they took the computer to see if the girl had been on any Internet chat rooms.
The parents of one of the girls had reported her missing about 8:50 p.m. Sunday, about two hours after she was expected home, Deputy Police Chief Clyde Watkins said Monday. The parents of the other girl called shortly afterward, and authorities with rescue dogs began searching that night.
Police visited the Hobbs’ home and took clothing worn by family members Sunday, the day the girls disappeared, Sheila Hollabaugh, the girl’s mother, told the Chicago Tribune in Tuesday’s editions.
No sexual assaultThe local coroner, Richard Keller, told reporters that "we have found no evidence of sexual assault.”
“The time of death was sometime during the night or early morning, but it may have been earlier than that, it's hard to say.” Keller mentioned that a light rain had fallen Sunday night, and said there were cool temperatures in the area overnight.
Keller told NBC's "Today" show on Tuesday that the girls were found fully clothed and that most of the stab wounds were to the neck.
Zion Police Chief Doug Malcolm said Monday that there were no leads on suspects yet. “It's a broad investigation; we're going everywhere,” he said. “There’s a lot of conjecture and a lot of rumors. ... There's no solid leads we're focusing in on. We have evidence technicians — the best in the business, I might add. No stone will be unturned.”
No weapons were recovered, though the girl's bicycles were found near the scene.
The park features a paved bike path, a ravine and trails made by mountain bikes.
Park called dangerousLaura Unrein, who lives near the park, said it was well known by parents as a place for children to avoid.
“There have been incidents of kids beating up people and taking their wallets and park rangers have had to shoo people out of there for hunting illegally,” she said, adding that it’s also a popular hangout for teens to drink.
“Our children are told not to be down in that area,” she said. “My husband and I don’t go down there anymore because you hear the stories.”
Unrein added that she knew the best friends well. “When one left, the other left. They were always together.”

Forget about the Bill of Rights - we the People have been sold a Bill of Goods!
The government and the media have been trying to scare us out of our wits for years – and guess what? It's working! We're duct-taping our windows, running off to war, assuming that fear and violence is the de facto state of the world. But it doesn't have to be that way.
I swear, if I have to listen to another politician say that our country's greatest natural resource is our children, I'm going to PUKE. 'Leave no child behind'? Has anyone taken that lame political jingle and compared it to the statistics on education, child poverty, and gun violence? Hel-lo?
If you listen to politicians' words, kids are important; if you pay attention to their(ACTIONS, we) 're not. Why can't they just admit the only resource they're concerned with is the amount of money our corporations rake in or our never-ending quest for world domination? I wish they'd just SAY it so we can finally stop hoping they're going to DO something about it.
Better yet – what are YOU, yeah YOU - doing about it? Are you going to peace marches? Calling your Congressperson and Senator? Are you working for campaign finance reform so we can stop this nonsense from the ground up?
You want things to be different – YOU make them different.
You want things to be better – YOU make them better.
I certainly don't have all the answers but here are some things I'd do if I could get elected:
• Not one soldier goes to war unless every Senator and Congressperson sends a family member to the front lines first.
• For every sky-is-falling, world-is-going-to-end story on the news, the next story must be life-affirming and positive. Balance reporting to keep us balanced.
• For every dollar spent on punishing criminals, another dollar will be spent on preventing crime with youth programs, education, and training.
Vote for me, vote for somebody else, but just vote!

Back in 1773, the British India Tea Company complained that they were suffering economic hardship so the British government passed the Tea Act of 1773, letting them off the hook for paying taxes. The colonists of New England were furious that the government had given the company unfair advantage over smaller and local competitors. So the boycotted, eventually staging the historic Boston Tea Party on this very spot, an act that demonstrated they were tired of a governmentthat favored big business over its own citizens. I say that the situation we citizens face today isn't much different than what our ancestors faced in our country's infancy. In fact, it's much worse.
Do you know that 83% of the government's income comes from people like you and me and only 17% is from corporations? It used to be a 50/50 split. Why so unfair to the average citizen now? Because you and I don't have lobbyists fighting for our rights in Washington the way corporations do. Our politicians have taken so much money from big business for their campaign war chests that they have to listen to their concerns. They'll pay you and I lots of lip service that they care about our needs, but until we fork over the same kind of cash as the corporations do, we're out of luck. As it is now, we go to our jobs every day so we can donate money to bail out the airlines, the banks, and the utilities. Our ancestors at the Tea Party rebelled over a whole lot less than that.
The Boston Tea Party was famous for another reason too – it was one of the earliest efforts where women in this country organized to change public policy. I'm happy to say my running mate, Beth Coleman, embodies the spirit of these brave and resourceful women. I invite all women and men, boys and girls, to work with us in affecting positive change again today. Those colonists went down in history for standing up against a government that valued corporations more than its own people; work with us now to stand up to this corporate-loving government again.

Men's Rules
These couldn't be more true..We always hear "the rules" from the feminine side. Ok - we now hear the guys' side These are our rules! Please note ... these are all numbered "1" ON PURPOSE!1. Learn to work the toilet seat. You're a big girl. If it's up, put it down.1. Birthdays, Valentines, and Anniversaries are not quests to see if we can find the perfect present yet again!1. Sometimes, we are not thinking about you. Live with it.1. Do not ask us what we are thinking about unless you are prepared to discuss such topics as navel lint, the shotgun formation, and golf shots (scores).1. Sunday = sports. It's like the full moon or the changing of the tides. Let it be.1. Shopping is NOT a sport, and no, we are never going to think of it that way.1. When we have to go somewhere, absolutely anything you wear is fine. Really.1. Crying is blackmail.1. Ask for what you want. Let us be clear on this one: Subtle hints do not work. Strong hints do not work. Obvious hints do not work. Just say it!1. We don't remember dates. Mark birthdays and anniversaries on a calendar. Remind us frequently beforehand.1. Most guys own three pairs of shoes - tops. What makes you think we'd be any good at choosing which pair, out of thirty, would look good with your dress?1. Yes and No are perfectly acceptable answers to almost every question.1. Come to us with a problem only if you want help solving it. That's what we do. Sympathy is what your girlfriends are for.1. A headache that lasts for 17 months is a problem. See a doctor. Check your oil! Please.1. Anything we said 6 months ago is inadmissible in an argument. In fact, all comments become null and void after 7 days.1. If you won't dress like the Victoria's Secret girls, don't expect us to act like soap opera guys.1. If something we said can be interpreted two ways, and one of the ways makes you sad or angry, we meant the other one.1. Let us ogle. We are going to look anyway; it's genetic.1. You can either ask us to do something or tell us how you want it done not both. If you already know best how to do it, just do it yourself.1. Whenever possible, please say whatever you have to say during commercials.1. Christopher Columbus did not need directions, and neither do we.1. The relationship is never going to be like it was the first two months we were going out. Get over it. And quit whining to your girlfriends.1. ALL men see in only 16 colors, like Windows default settings. Peach, for example, is a fruit, not a color. Pumpkin is also a fruit. We have no idea what mauve is.1. If it itches, it will be scratched. We do that.1. We are not mind readers and we never will be. Our lack of mind-reading ability is not proof of how little we care about you.1. If we ask what is wrong and you say "nothing," we will act like nothing's wrong. We know you are lying, but it is just not worth the hassle.1. I'm in shape. - ROUND is a shape.

Once upon a time, there were four people; Their names were Everybody, Somebody, Nobody and Anybody.Whenever there was an important job to be done, Everybody was sure that Somebody would do it. Anybody could have done it, but Nobody did it. When Nobody did it, Everybody got angry, because it was Everybody's job. Everybody thought that Somebody would do it, but Nobody realized that Nobody would do it.So consequently, Everybody blamed Somebody when Nobody did what Anybody could have done in the first place.

The English Language

There is no egg in eggplant, nor ham in hamburger; neither apple or pine in pineapple. And while no one knows what is in a hotdog, you can be pretty sure it isn't canine.English muffins were not invented in England nor French fries in France.Sweetmeats are candies, while sweetbreads, which aren't sweet, are meat.We take English for granted. But if we explore its paradoxes, we find that quicksand can work slowly, boxing rings are square, and a guinea pig is neither from Guinea nor is it a pig.And why is it that writers write, but fingers don't fing, grocers don't groce, and hammers don't ham?If the plural of tooth is teeth, why isn't the plural of booth, beeth? One goose, 2 geese. So one moose, two meese? Is cheese the plural of choose? One mouse, 2 mice. One louse, 2 lice. One house, 2 hice?If teachers taught, why didn't preachers praught?If a vegetarian eats vegetables, what does a humanitarian eat?Why do people recite at a play, and play at a recital? Ship by truck or car and send cargo by ship? Have noses that run and feet that smell? Park on driveways and drive on parkways?How can a slim chance and a fat chance be the same, while a wise man and a wise guy are opposites?How can the weather be hot as heck one day and cold as heck another? When a house burns up, it burns down. You fill in a form by filling it out and an alarm clock goes off by going on. You get in and out of a car, yet you get on and off a bus. When the stars are out, they are visible, but when the lights are out, they are invisible.And why, when I wind up my watch, I start it, but when I wind up an essay, I end it?English is a silly language ... it doesn't know if it is coming or going !!!

Do this!!!

It's hysterical if you do it right! Get a blank whole sheet of paper,and draw a picture of a pig on it. Just a basic drawing, don't spendall day on it.

You must first draw the pig!

Now to the interesting stuff...
The pig serves as a useful test of the personality traits of the drawer.If the pig is drawn:

Toward the top of the paper, you are positive and optimistic.

Toward the middle, you are a realist. Toward the bottom, you arepessimistic, and have a tendency to behave negatively.

Facing left, you believe in tradition, are friendly, and remember dates(birthdays, etc.).

Facing right, you are innovative and active, but don't have a strongsense of family, nor do you remember dates.

Facing front (looking at you), you are direct, enjoy playing devil'sadvocate and neither fear nor avoid discussions.

With many details, you are analytical, cautious, and distrustful.
With few details, you are emotional and naive, you care littlefor details and are a risk-taker.

With less than 4 legs showing, you are insecure or are livingthrough a period of major change.

With 4 legs showing, you are secure, stubborn, and stick to your ideals.

If there are more than 4 legs, you are stupid.

The size of the ears indicates how good a listener you are. The biggerthe better.

The length of the tail indicates the quality of your sex life!!!And again more is better!)

OK, did you draw a tail? ;-)

If I do not want what you want, please try not to tell me that my want is wrong.
Or if I believe other than you, at least pause before you correct my view.
Or if my emotion is less than yours, or more, given the same circumstances, try not to ask me to feel more strongly or weakly.
Or yet if I act, or fail to act, in the manner of your design for action, let me be.
I do not, for the moment at least, ask you to understand me. That will come only when you are willing to give up changing me into a copy of you.
I may be your spouse, your parent, your offsping, your friend, or your colleague. If you will allow me any of my own wants, or emotions, or beliefs, or actions, then you open yourself, so that some day these ways of mine might not seem so wrong, and might finally appear to you as right -- for me. To put up with me is the first step to understanding me. Not that you embrace my ways as right for you, but that you are no longer irritated or disappointed with me for my seeming waywardness. And in understanding me you might come to prize my differences from you, and, far from seeking to change me, preserve and even nurture those differences.

You're a ferocious flirt.

You're in danger of crossing the line, flirting-wise. There's nothing wrong with showing romantic interest with a pointed glance, a soft touch or a toss of your hair, but if you're all over everybody (literally and figuratively) and you have no intention of getting involved sexually, you'll wind up creating frustration for everyone involved. Tone your come-hither ways down a bit. You don't need to go overboard to get someone's attention.
