California Man Allegedly Murdered Neighbors Over $1 Hot Dog Dispute at Nudist Ranch REDLANDS, Calif. — A 62-year-old man has been charged with two counts of murder after allegedly beating his neighbors to death and dismembering their bodies—an act prosecutors say was sparked by a perceived insult involving a hot dog. Michael Royce Sparks is accused of killing Daniel and Stephanie Menard, a longtime couple who lived near him at the Olive Dell Nudist Ranch in Redlands. The San Bernardino County District Attorney's Office announced the charges Tuesday, which also include two special circumstance allegations for committing multiple murders. Sparks' arraignment is set for Wednesday. According to Detective Thomas Williams, Sparks confided to a fellow inmate that his deadly outburst began when Daniel Menard bought him a hot dog. Sparks reportedly believed the $1 snack was a slight against his worth, telling the inmate he felt it was a “jab” at him. “He said that's what set him off,” Williams testified during a Monday hearing. Sparks then allegedly went outside and struck Daniel in the head until “his head caved in.” When Stephanie Menard ran out screaming, Sparks reportedly attacked both victims with a rake, hoe, and hammer, according to the detective's account of Sparks' jailhouse confession. The Menards were reported missing on Sunday, August 25, after failing to show up for church. Their neighbor, Irene Ingkref, said the couple had lived at their property for decades and were last seen around 10 a.m. the day before. When investigators arrived, they found the Menards' vehicle down the road—unlocked, keys inside—and both of their cell phones and Mrs. Menard's purse left behind in the home. Their dog, Cuddles, remains missing. At first, authorities treated the case as a missing persons investigation. Over the next four days, police and volunteers scoured the rugged terrain surrounding the nudist community. But the case took a grim turn on August 29 when a former coworker and a relative in Minnesota reported receiving alarming texts from Sparks. Gale Heidelberg, a dispatcher at a diesel repair shop where Sparks once worked as a truck driver, testified that she reached out after seeing news coverage. She texted, “I am watching the news. Something going on where you live. Are you in town?” Sparks replied, “It's me. Committing suicide today. Take care. Bye.” When she pressed him for clarification, Sparks responded chillingly: “Chopped up my neighbors. Didn't know I had it in me. SNAPPED.” Redlands police quickly zeroed in on Sparks' trailer at Space 43. Detective Laurel Shearer testified that a foul odor was already emanating from the property. Officers tried to contact Sparks, who refused to come out. Redlands police ultimately used a tractor to dismantle the trailer. Inside, officers found Sparks hiding in a bunker with a long rifle. He attempted to take his own life, but the gun jammed. When asked where the Menards were and if they needed help, Sparks allegedly replied, “They're underneath the trailer… they don't need help,” before adding, “They're in pieces.” Authorities later confirmed they discovered human remains and additional evidence tied to the crime, though the coroner is still working to officially identify the bodies. During Tuesday's press conference, Redlands Police Chief Rachel Tolber emphasized the collaborative effort between law enforcement and the community in locating the missing couple and bringing the case forward. District Attorney Jason Anderson said his office is confident in pursuing the charges, stating, “You don't get a free murder. We believe Mr. Sparks is responsible for both.” If convicted on all charges, including the special circumstances, Sparks could face life in prison without the possibility of parole.

The difficulty common earplugs have conforming to each person's unique anatomy leads to frequent struggles with actually keeping these devices in our ears – not to mention the poor sound quality they create by blocking out only the top frequencies. Biomaterial professor and industrial designer, Lauryn Menard may very well be revolutionizing the future of earplugs, as she has pioneered a solution that not only resolves these issues but also provides a more sustainable option for our environment. Her company GOB has created aerial mycelium foam earplugs that conform to each person's ear shape and dampen all frequencies for a balanced & comfortable listening experience. In this episode, Lauren touches upon the journey that led to the creation of GOB, strategies the company is using to successfully market their product to consumers, and upcoming venue partnerships.

Erwan Menard is the director of product management for Google Cloud's Cloud AI division, where he helps lead innovation at the intersection of AI agents, enterprise systems, and business outcomes. In part two of our series, Google Cloud and the AI Revolution, Erwan joins Bob Evans to discuss how governance, intentionality, and rapid scaling are critical to AI agent success, share insights on Google Cloud's Agentspace and Agent Builder tools, and explore how multi-agent collaboration is reshaping the future of enterprise technology.Purpose Driven AI InnovationThe Big Themes:Intentionality Drives Impact: Menard advises organizations not to jump into AI agent development for novelty's sake, but to begin with a clearly defined problem and desired business outcome. However, once value is proven, it's crucial to scale intentionally. He shares the example of a customer rolling out 40,000 licenses of Agentspace only after deeply considering what kind of first experience they wanted their employees to have.Organizational Culture Shapes AI Adoption: There's no universal model for who should “own” AI governance. It depends on the company's culture. Some companies may create centralized AI governance teams; others may embed responsibilities within existing business units or IT teams. The key is cultural acknowledgment: governance must be understood as a shared responsibility, not just an operational afterthought.Anchor in Business Value: With so many tools, models, and frameworks emerging, it's easy for companies to fall into what he calls “optionality evaluation.” That is, spending so much time chasing the latest innovations that they lose sight of why they started exploring AI in the first place. Instead, he urges leaders to ask: What are we trying to improve? Whether it's speeding up contract workflows, freeing up data scientists from routine tasks, or enhancing customer service, the goal should be clear.The Big Quote: "If you find yourself in a constant evaluation loop for the new shiny object, maybe it's worth taking a pause and saying, 'Why are we doing this again?'"

Conservationist Trae Menard has spent decades protecting Hawaiian native ecosystems, with special attention to his home island of Kaua`i for the past twenty years. As the former program director of The Nature Conservancy's Kaua`i program, his experience is that of an ecologist who moved to Hawai`i from the east coast--first for graduate school in geography at University of Hawai`i at Mānoa, and then later as a natural resource manager. Trae tells us how Kaua`i has seen the seismic shift from opposition to fencing for conservation purposes, to support for the establishment of the Kaua`i's first Watershed Alliance. The consortia not only protects core watershed acreage through public and private partnerships, but helps reduce the threats of weeds and pigs to some of the most unique flora on the oldest island in the archipelago.

After the storm, the guys start discussing shopping for the holiday season. Maino had a situation yesterday where he was "the guy" who stopped the progression in the checkout line. One of his items didn't have a price tag, so the clerk had to look for one with a tag. The rest of the checkout line glared at him. We also have another example of the difference between Jim and John: where they like to shop. Jim? Macy's. John? Menard's. Can you say "exactly??" Then Lisa Hale from NEWisco Weekend joins the guys to talk about this weekend's show, and they discuss Christmas in the bayou and least favorite Christmas songs. Maino and the Mayor is a part of the Civic Media radio network and airs Monday through Friday from 6-9 am on WGBW in Green Bay and on WISS in Appleton/Oshkosh.

We've all been there. We walk past an end cap, or walk up to the checkout at the store, you think to yourself, “Oh I could use this snack!” Or, this product will make my life easier! It's no fluke! It's not happenstance. Retailers and marketers work really hard to get you to spend more. This leads to impulse purchases, or impulse spending. Impulse spending is a common financial problem that many people struggle with. Including me! My kryptonite is walking into my local Menard's. I go there for a new chain for my chainsaw. There is only one thing on my list. I need to process a fallen tree from a recent storm. However, as we walk in, we are slapped in the face with this isle littered with eye-catching products and screaming flash deals! We see insane “deals” on snacks, candy, electronics, seasonal items. (currently fireworks as we approach the 4th of July), and marked-down or clearance products. This is in hope to get customers to buy these things impulsively. Impulsive spending, or purchasing Is the act of making unplanned purchases without considering the long-term effects on your budget and financial health. Whether it's grabbing an extra item at the checkout line or splurging on so many different products during a sale, impulse spending can quickly derail your financial goals. We'll try and explain what impulse spending is, why it happens, and provide practical strategies to help you avoid it.

She joins the podcast to recap her time at Westfield State, her start in running, and the importance of team culture. She credits her love of running to her Dad. He got her started in running at a young age. Mix in some success during her high school days and she was hooked. She initially went to the University of Alabama where she won 2 SEC Cross Country Titles. Unfortunately, a family tragedy had her transfer schools and enrolled at Westfield State to be close to family. Her new team was supportive in her trying time. She resides in Westfield, MA and is reminded of her great times running in college.
