Please Check Your Seatbacks -- and Pilot
Our pals at KHOU broke another good one yesterday. You may have heard that a Continental Airlines pilot was pulled from duty Sunday after testing positive for alcohol. Seems a Continental employee smelled the vapors emanating from the pilot on an employee bus and alerted someone that said pilot might have already been fueling before fueling.
The pilot had been scheduled to operate Continental flight 706 from Houston Bush Intercontinental Airport to Tampa, Florida. That's a few hours, making for a trip potentially more interesting than Soul Plane.
And hey, the unnamed pilot has a wing man. A couple of weeks ago, a Southwest pilot was arrested just before he took off from Salt Lake City International Airport for suspicion of intoxication.
There's also the case of the buzzin' Australian Army helicopter pilots. Oh, those crazy Aussies. — Steven Devadanam

I'm Starvin'
Ten days into those New Year's resolutions, and it's a pretty safe bet that a large percentage of us roundish Americans have vowed to lose weight. Rather than face this task with grim asceticism, take inspiration from John Pinette. The big man of comedy is smaller these days, having lost mucho poundage. He has not, however, lost his sense of humor. Pinette's comedy covers his love of buffets and the travails of dieting, with such treats as, "Salad isnt food. Salad comes with food. Salad is a promissory note that something good is going to happen and I should wait right here."
Get to the Palm Beach Improv at 550 S Rosemary Ave. in West Palm Beach this Saturday night. Something good might happen, too - you may laugh your ass right off! Shows are at 7 p.m. and 9:15 p.m., with tickets costing an exact $21.30 per seat, plus a classic two drink minimum. Visit palmbeachimprov.com for more details.

Product Description
From the Manufacturer
A permanently installed Generac home backup generator protects your home automatically. It runs on natural gas or liquid propane (LP) fuel, and sits outside just like a central air conditioning unit. A home backup generator delivers power directly to your home's electrical system, backing up your entire home or just the most essential items.
Protect the things that matter during a power outage.
Generac's 11 kW Guardian Series home standby generator provides essential circuit power protection for your home, ensuring the necessities remain powered during an outage. Has the ability to backup a 3-ton air conditioner, well pump or water heater, and the main rooms of your house.

As far as installation goes, most electricians are going to charge anywhere from $500 to $1000 for transfer box, and then the plumber to hook up the gas line. Gas has to be ran to the unit, so unless you have an existing gas line already in place, the plumber has to lay pipe and your natural gas. Total cost for install was just under $1500.
The unit looks great, self tests every week, and providing I maintain the unit, it should last many years
Since it is powered by natural gas, it is relatively quiet to the gasoline powered generators in the neighborhood. It was trouble free and gave very even output no matter what the load was on the unit with its 20 circuits. For a 3000 square foot home, including the pool house / equipment, it powers about 65% of the devices (lights, water pump, heat pump, electronics / tv / satellite ) and makes staying in the home easy while my neighbors either went to hotels or struggled with their portables, refilling their tanks every 6 to 12 hours of use.
so the electrical company sent someone out that night to turn it on for us and make sure our other pilot lights were lit.
Everyone around us lost power but our little town was spared. The lights flickered but no outage. Wouldn't you know it!
Anyway. The price that you see here, double it. Ours came in at just over $6,000. We now no longer panic when the wind starts to blow.
We live in WA state and are always loosing power. It's well worth the price for the piece of mind.
By the way they will maintain it for you once a year for $275.00. We have a guarantee of five years if we have problems we call them.
That's what I want because I have no idea how to do this. My husband says it's like maintaining a car engine but he said let the expects do it.
As to the generator and the automatic transfer switch which I have received in before the time expected , I feel these will be fine and I will get exactly what I expected. However I feel that you did not complete the order based on information from the advertisement. I have sent you a section of this advertisement so you can better understand why I feel this order is not complete. I believe you need to modify the advertisement so as not to mislead the Amazon customers.
Generac 6438 comes with a 200-Amp NEMA 1 automatic transfer switch with 30-foot, 5-foot and 2-foot pre-wired conduits; outdoor connection box; 1-foot flexible fuel line pigtail; composite mounting pad; installation guide and owner's manual.

This edition is so full of font changes and typos it is difficult to read.
The 4stars are for the material. Niven tells a good story and does not disappoint here. This ebook edition has some problems with the fonts for a paragrapg or so every few pages. Not that big a distraction for me but it eould be nice if BN could at least have some human look over the OCR scan job from paper. Clearly, that was not done. Still, a good read.
Larry Niven has always been a author I have been a fan of eversince I picked up one of his earlier science fiction novels and began reading it I was immediatly captured from the first chapter of his novel, I couldn't help but wonder what was going to happen next in the novel? Would the Earth be changed? If so, what would happen to it? Those are the kinds of questions that keep me reading his novels because I want to know the answers to my own questions. Larry Niven and his novel, A World out of Time, is a very intergalactic adventure that involves very futuristic machines and methods of living, it is truly mind-boggling to any reader! This novel isn't your average science fiction novel, it is science fiction in all of it's glory!! I highly recommend this novel open your mind to the world of science fiction!!
This book is one of Larry's best-- if not THE best. It's a great adventure from beginning to end. The plot is super, the characters are imaginative and vivid, the hard science is there... I didn't want it to end!
I love this book! I recommend everyone to read it. I like to read books about time travel, future, etc and this book it's very well written. if you like all this it's gonna make you blew you away.
This is still one of Niven's best stand-alone, non-Know-Space novels. Niven looks so far ahead, that his ideas are fresh enough to excite physics professors, their students, and all hard-SF fans. Yet you don't need a physics degree to read them: Above all else, Niven's stories are fun!
I'm 15 (obviously) and I recently read this book, and it just blew me away; it was very well-written, creative, and the guy actually sounded like he knew what he was talking about. I was so dissapointed when my library didn't have anymore of his books. I would love to read it again and again.
In this early work, Larry Niven gave the world a glimpse of what he had to offer science fiction readers, and the phenomenal talent we would come to know. Niven had, by this time, already established 'Niven's law', that brilliant science, combined with great storytelling, produced great science fiction. One of the generation of writers known as 'Heinlein's kids', Larry Niven, along with writers such as Harlan Ellison, S.M. Stirling, Stephen Barnes, Harry Turtledove, Andre Norton, Phillip Jose Farmer, and Jerry Pournelle (Niven's long time collaberator) have consistently broken new ground, and streached the genre in surprising directions. Never boring, never predictable, Larry Niven has raised the bar for future generations of sci-Fi authors.
I like this author but this book sucked asss.

Chilly, windswept cricket ovals are what New Zealand expected in early June for the Champions Trophy. What they didn't vouch for were dusty spin bowlers' paradises, more akin to Kolkata than Cardiff.
So as anxious glances are cast to the skies tonight, with rain forecast, the pitch at Cardiff Wales Stadium will elicit the most furrowed brows because either New Zealand or England face an early exit from the tournament.
It is on the line for both sides. New Zealand hit the ground running at Lord's and Southampton, stuttered in Nottingham, then staggered home for victory against Sri Lanka. The Australian washout saved them from a tricky run chase and they enter today's match still atop group A but wobbling slightly. However, a washout will be enough for them to qualify.
England were on the top of the world and trying not to show too much glee at David Warner's hi-jinks and Australia's predicament. They were hot favourites against Sri Lanka to seal their semifinal spot, and posted a daunting 293-7 at The Oval. It wasn't enough and now a loss to New Zealand, or potentially even a washout, could see them punted from their own tournament.
Normally both sets of fast bowlers would be licking their lips at a bit of swing and seam, with a new Kookaburra ball from each end. Instead there's been neither. Spin is in, as a lack of rain and apparent unwillingness from groundsmen to use their hoses sees batsmen dealing with turn and variable bounce from the tweakers.
"The wickets haven't been as good for batting as you would have thought at this time of year. The ball hasn't swung and it's stopped in the wicket and been a bit two paced," New Zealand coach Mike Hesson said.
"In June in England you'd think they'd be quicker and more seamer friendly. The strength of this competition is you've got to adjust and all three venues are very different. Ultimately the best two sides will make the final."
If New Zealand can topple England, they get their rewards. Being top qualifier earns them a semifinal at The Oval on Wednesday, the best pitch of the three venues. Finish second and they return to Cardiff on Thursday, where they enjoy being based but still have nightmares about the surface on which they faced Sri Lanka, when they conjured a one-wicket victory as both sides made a 150 total look like cricket's Everest.
So New Zealand have joined in the fun and gone spin-heavy. No New Zealand team had bowled 30 overs of spin in a one-day international before Birmingham on Wednesday. But Daniel Vettori moved far more freely and will be hugely influential against a team who will play him with respect and look to attack at the other end.
That's where Mitchell McClenaghan comes in, New Zealand's wicket-taking machine, who has 26 from his first nine ODIs, including four bags of four and Alastair Cook for a duck the last time they met. Bowling in short spells he's captain Brendon McCullum's strike weapon if the spinners can apply the brakes. Senior paceman Kyle Mills has been a handy foil and with one wicket can become the Champions Trophy's highest wicket-taker. Tim Southee, meanwhile, is under a cloud with an ongoing ankle problem.
England's dangermen have been the power hitters, with Jos Buttler playing a whirlwind, match-winning knock at Trent Bridge, then Ravi Bopara doing the damage against Sri Lanka. New Zealand leaked runs at the death in Nottingham, where their plans were right but the execution awry.
"We had a good review of that game and we'll have another recap before this one," Hesson said.
New Zealand's batsmen will have to counter Graeme Swann's spin, and possibly some reverse swing, which England's pacemen achieved in Birmingham and Sri Lanka did in Cardiff. Questions still remain about the batting order when Martin Guptill misses out, and we'll never know if they would have chased down Australia's 244 on Wednesday despite Ross Taylor and Kane Williamson looking comfortable.
Opener Luke Ronchi got the backing of captain and coach and will have more licence to thrill, but choose his shots more judiciously. England paceman James Anderson will zero in, having removed Ronchi twice.
And Brendon McCullum, who with brother Nathan, have been the stars in the field for New Zealand, needs to step up with the bat. It's been a lean tour for the skipper with the willow, even if he's attacked confidently in the field.
McCullum is the one batsman England fear and a blazing knock is overdue as New Zealand's tournament wavers between comfortably qualifying for the semifinals, or a week off until their two tour-ending Twenty20 matches.

Esophageal cancer is the sixth most common cause of cancer death worldwide with ∼386,000 deaths in 20021 and has 2 primary histologic types, esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) and esophageal adenocarcinoma (EAC). EAC rates are increasing in many countries worldwide. For example, in the United States, the rates of EAC have increased by over 350% over the past 30 years, while the rates of ESCC have decreased by 35%.2, 3, 4 However, in high risk geographic regions, such as northeastern Iran and Linxian, China, ESCC is the predominant form.5, 6, 7 Concordant with these differences in incidence rates, ESCC and EAC share common but also independent risk factors. Cigarette smoking appears to be a risk factor for both cancer types, whereas gastric reflux disease is thought to be a strong risk factor for EAC but not ESCC. Studies consistently show associations between heavy alcohol consumption and increased ESCC risk; studies with alcohol and EAC do not suggest a consistent association.8 Finally, although high body mass index (BMI) is consistently associated with increased EAC risk,9 it may be associated with decreased ESCC risk.7, 10, 11
Whether intake of fruit and vegetables, rich in potentially anti-carcinogenic compounds, protects against ESCC and EAC incidence is not known. An IARC report of fruit and vegetable intake and cancer risk indicated that the intake of fruit and vegetables "probably" lowers the risk of esophageal cancer.12 However, this report did not distinguish by histolgic type in its recommendations. Most previous studies of this association have been ecological13, 14 or case–control in design,12, 15, 16 and therefore susceptible to the ecological fallacy or recall and selection bias, particularly as esophageal cancer affects the digestive tract and has a 5 year survival rate of just 16%.1 To our knowledge, only 4 prospective studies investigated fruit and vegetable intake and esophageal cancer risk. One study investigated the association between fresh vegetable and fruit intake and ESCC in Linxian, China, a high risk region for esophageal cancer. Though this study lacked comprehensive dietary assessment, a significant protective association was observed with fruit intake.7 Similarly, a borderline significant inverse association between fruit intake and ESCC risk was observed in the Japanese Hiroshima Life Span study17; this study did not examine total vegetable intake. An analysis of data from 6 prefectures in Japan observed decreased risk for ESCC with increased consumption of Green-yellow vegetables,18 but did not investigate other vegetable types or fruits. The European Prospective Investigation of Cancer using a small number of cases (n = 65), reported a suggestive but not significant inverse association between total vegetable intake, citrus fruit intake and EAC risk.19 To our knowledge, no previous prospective study compared the association between fruit and vegetable intake and EAC risk with that for ESCC risk.
As fruit and vegetable intake may protect against esophageal cancer incidence, we examined this association in a large US prospective cohort, the National Institutes of Health (NIH)-AARP Diet and Health Study. Fruit and vegetable intake was assessed via a comprehensive 124 item food frequency questionnaire and esophageal cancer sub-types were distinguished by histology.

The Coalition to End Meal Limits NOW presented Gainesville City Commissioners with a mock award for "Best Fantasy" on Thursday night in a unique effort to force Commissioners to hear about the enforced 130-meal limit for the homeless. The Commissioners were not amused, and could not accept the mock oscar by law. Gainesville City Commissioners placed an ordinance on the number of meals homeless shelters, like St. Francis House, can serve to 130 forcing them to deny any homeless or hungry residents who come afterwards. But, Saint Francis House will continue with the meal limit until commissioners repeal the ordinance. The Coalition to End Limits NOW members say they will continue in their fight to end meal limits in Gainesville.

House leaders — awash in indecision over how to address dramatic hikes to federal flood-insurance premiums during a midterm election year — abruptly postponed a Thursday vote on a bill because of a lack of support.
Some rank-and-file Republicans had expressed confidence as late as Tuesday night that the bill emerging in talks with Democrats would be acted on this week — only to be told by Majority Leader Eric Cantor during a closed-door session Wednesday morning that the vote is being put off.
The development vividly underscores how federal flood insurance — and the need to fix it — blurs the lines between tea-party and conservative fiscal politics and the needs and demands of constituents.
Even some members of the 40 or so usual "hell no" caucus — including many who refused to go along with paying for Superstorm Sandy damage elsewhere in the country — are pleading with Speaker John Boehner and other GOP leaders to take action to address the rising premiums because of pressure from their districts. Even if that means undoing some recently enacted fiscal reforms to bring the program out of $24 billion in red ink.
What to do was a focus of a meeting being held early Wednesday afternoon by the conservative Republican Study Committee, a group of 175 House members.
Adding to the pressure, though, is that there have been warnings by outside conservative groups Heritage Action and Club for Growth that they oppose the bill that was emerging this week in talks with House Democrats — and that they would include the vote on their legislative scorecards.
And some key House chairmen are also said to have more-privately pressed objections to that bill, arguing that recently enacted fiscal reforms would be gutted.
The Club for Growth, in a news release later Wednesday, even singled out Financial Services Committee Chairman Jeb Hensarling for praise in opposing the bill, which it said would unwind and partly repeal the much-needed reforms enacted in 2012.
"House Republican leadership wants to stick taxpayers with the bill for higher subsidies to beachfront properties, but Congressman Hensarling took a principled stand," said Club for Growth President Chris Chocola.
"As the House Financial Services Committee chairman, Congressman Hensarling has long advocated for reforming the flood insurance program, so it's no surprise that GOP leaders are refusing to run the bill through his committee, and instead, are negotiating directly with the Democrats," the statement added. "Republicans in the House could learn a lot by following Congressman Hensarling's lead when it comes to protecting taxpayers and increasing economic freedom."
There was no immediate comment from Boehner or Cantor's office.
Meanwhile, Rep. Bill Cassidy, R-La., who is running for a Senate seat and has positioned himself as a leader in the effort, downplayed the delay. He said he remains confident the bill will soon move forward and that "this is an opportunity to put good policy before politics."
"We are diligently working on improvements to the bill that the Senate alternative legislation failed to address. We have carefully built a coalition and drafted a solid proposal that has garnered widespread support. Now, small changes are being made to ensure passage of the bill and to ensure FEMA implements it correctly," Cassidy said.
At issue are provisions of a 2012 bill cosponsored by Rep. Maxine Waters — the ranking Democrat on the Financial Services Committee — and former Rep. Judy Biggert, R-Ill. The measure, passed against the backdrop of a long-term budgetary crisis, adjusted the rate maps of the National Flood Insurance Program and made other changes designed to fix the program that is tens of billions of dollars in debt (now $24 billion).
But what's ensued are huge spikes in some flood-insurance premiums in coastal states like Louisiana, Florida, and Connecticut, and what some local governments say has been a paralysis in their real-estate markets.
The Senate has already passed a bill that would outright delay the Biggert-Waters Act's adjustments to rate maps for four years.
But many House conservatives say that goes too far.
At the same time, House Republicans have found difficulty finding the right blend of tweaks to the 2012 law to deal with the fast-rising premiums, while also maintaining the force and spirit of its reforms to the ailing flood insurance program have been difficult.
The complaints about the bill that was scheduled to be voted on Thursday included that it would undermine the current law's goal of ending taxpayer subsidies for the roughly one-fifth of the national policyholders who receive them and would extend into perpetuity subsidies for roughly 700,000 older primary homes, even if they are resold by the current owner.
The measure also would roll back rate increases for properties that have been resold since Biggerts-Waters law was passed in mid-2012.
"This bill represents a fundamental betrayal of the free-market principles and fiscal responsibility the House leadership claims to embrace," said R.J. Lehmann, a senior fellow at R Street Institute, which characterizes itself as a "free market" or "libertarian" think tank.

In a stark contrast from Michelle Obama's uplifting speech, Massachusetts Senator Elizabeth Warren spoke about the rigged system plaguing Americans before launching into a full-throated rebuke of GOP nominee Donald Trump. Trump is "a man who has never sacrificed anything for anyone," she claimed, before saying he "must never be president of the United States." She called him divisive and selfish, and said the American people won't accept his "hate-filled America." In addition to Trump, Warren went after the Republican Party as a whole. "To Republicans in Congress who said no, this November the American people are coming for you," she said.
"In this election, and every election, it's about who will have the power to shape our children for the next four or eight years of their lives," Michelle Obama said. "There is only one person who I trust with that responsibility … and that is our friend Hillary Clinton." In a personal and emotional speech, Michelle Obama spoke about the effect that angry oppositional rhetoric had on her children and how she chose to raise them. "When they go low, we go high," Obama said she told her children about dealing with bullies. Obama stayed mostly positive, but still offered a firm rebuke of Donald Trump, despite never once uttering his name. "The issues a president faces cannot be boiled down to 140 characters," she said.
Many Bernie Sanders delegates have spent much of the first day of the Democratic National Convention resisting unity, booing at mentions of Hillary Clinton and often chanting "Bernie! Bernie!" Well, one of the most outspoken Bernie Sanders supporters just told them to take a seat. "To the Bernie-or-bust people: You're being ridiculous," said comedian Sarah Silverman in a brief appearance at the Convention, minutes after saying that she would proudly support Hillary Clinton for president.
The Democratic National Committee issued a formal apology to Bernie Sanders today, after leaked emails showed staffers trying to sabotage his presidential bid. "On behalf of everyone at the DNC, we want to offer a deep and sincere apology to Senator Sanders, his supporters, and the entire Democratic Party for the inexcusable remarks made over email," DNC officials said in the statement. "These comments do not reflect the values of the DNC or our steadfast commitment to neutrality during the nominating process. The DNC does not—and will not—tolerate disrespectful language exhibited toward our candidates."
The chairman of the DCCC said Debbie Wasserman Schultz won't be getting financial help from the organization this year, even as she faces a well-funded primary challenger. "Rep. Ben Ray Luján (D-NM) said the committee's resources will be spent helping Democrats in tough races rather than those in seats that are strongholds for the party." Executive Director Kelly Ward added, "We never spend money in safe seats."

Ed Andrieski, File, Associated Press
WASHINGTON — The more Republicans get to know their potential White House candidates, the less happy they are with their choices.
It's not that they dislike the individual candidates. They just give them a collective shrug as possible opponents for President Barack Obama. They'd like someone with a little more pizazz.
Some 45 percent now say they're dissatisfied with the GOP candidates who have declared or are thought to be serious about running, up from 33 percent two months ago, according to an Associated Press-GfK poll. Just 41 percent are satisfied with the likely Republican field, down from 52 percent.
Plenty are holding out for somebody else.
In North Carolina, retiree Robert Osborne is hoping New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie will decide to run. In Indiana, farmer Brent Smith wishes Mississippi Gov. Haley Barbour hadn't backed away. In Georgia, stock clerk Susan Demarest would love to see somebody more like Ronald Reagan.
Ohio's William Johnson just wants somebody who's not a "cold fish."
"I don't expect them to get up there and start doing karaoke, but we need somebody with a little more spunk," says the Columbus steelworker.
While the Republican roster of candidates is growing almost by the day — Ron Paul declared on Thursday, and Mike Huckabee says he'll make an important announcement this weekend — satisfaction with the field appears to be shrinking. Future polling could give a better idea of whether the dramatic raid that led to the death of Osama bin Laden, which gave a boost to Obama's approval rating, also served to dampen enthusiasm temporarily for Republican candidates.
The poll was conducted May 5-9 by GfK Roper Public Affairs and Corporate Communications. It involved landline and cellphone interviews with 1,001 adults nationwide and had a margin of sampling error of plus or minus 4.2 percentage points. The survey included 378 Republicans, and that subset had a larger, 6.9 percentage point margin of error.
Four years ago at this time, there was a clearly different dynamic for the GOP. In late May 2007, a Washington Post-ABC News poll found Republicans generally content with their choices: 68 percent said they were satisfied with "the choice of candidates for the Republican nomination for president," though that was well below the 79 percent level of satisfaction among Democrats.
So far this year, it looks like a case of GOP buyer's remorse before all the merchandise is even out on the shelves.
Lori Raney, who owns a drapery workroom in Canton, Ga., says she's sure to vote for the party's eventual nominee. But so far, she says, no standout candidate has emerged. She'd be happy to vote for somebody with a level head, but says a lot of voters demand something more.
"Nowadays, people don't really care about qualifications and common sense," she says. "They want the celebrity figure to run for president. Republicans just don't have the celebrity-type figure."
Smith, the farmer from Zionsville, Ind., sees some good choices in the field and hopes that former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney gets the nomination. But he confesses, "In truth, I don't think there's a Republican out there" who can beat Obama, because of the president's strong support among minority voting blocs.
Candidate by candidate, Republicans display widely varying impressions of those who are in the GOP race or thinking about joining. With the field still gelling, a number of potential candidates are so little known that many Republicans can't venture an opinion.
Former Arkansas Gov. Huckabee, who is viewed favorably by 72 percent of Republicans, has the highest rating of the lot. He's thinking about running and said Friday he planned a "very important" announcement on his TV show this weekend.
Former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin, who was the GOP vice presidential nominee in 2008, is viewed favorably by two-thirds of Republicans, as is Romney, who made a strong bid for the presidential nomination last time. Romney has all but announced this time; Palin is more of a question mark.
Palin's support has held steady among Republicans in recent months, but her unfavorable rating among all adults is at a new high of 59 percent. Just 36 percent of Americans overall have a favorable opinion of her.
Romney's favorability rating among Republicans has actually improved since March, growing from 59 percent to 66 percent.
The only other major Republican with a favorability rating above 50 percent in the poll was former Speaker Newt Gingrich, who didn't enter the presidential race until the week after the poll was conducted. His favorability rating was 61 percent.
Businessman-TV celebrity Donald Trump was the only potential candidate to draw unfavorable reviews from half of Republicans. Forty-five percent viewed him favorably compared to 50 percent who rated him unfavorably.
GOP favorability ratings for lesser-known Republicans asked about in the poll: former Texas Rep. Paul, 49 percent; Rep. Michele Bachmann of Minnesota , 41 percent; former Sen. Rick Santorum of Pennsylvania, 36 percent; former Minnesota Gov. Tim Pawlenty, 33 percent; Indiana Gov. Mitch Daniels, 30 percent; former Utah Gov. and Ambassador to China Jon Huntsman, 20 percent.

Leanne Suter, ABC7 Reporter, Shot by Pellet on-Air, Continues With Report
Leanne Suter at the scene of the shooting.
The stereotype of the TV news journalist as a prima donna with a massive fragrance collection, thanks in part to Anchorman, persists.
But the ones we've come to know are sharp as nails. And now some of them are, apparently, tough as them as well.
Take Leanne Suter, an ABC7 reporter doing a live weather "shot" over the weekend. And "shot" is a key word here:
She took a pellet to the hand. Live on-air. And ABC anchor John Hartung said "viewers could not tell" she was shot.

This all happened during the 6 p.m. newscast Saturday.
Some thunderstorms struck the Inland Empire, and Suter was on scene in ... Fontana. Yeah, the city that's kind of like Southern California's Floroida -- where all the crazy redneck shit happens.
Anyway, she was treated at a hospital and released. Fellow journalists tweeted up a storm about her Saturday night.
Two teens (not, apparently, Beavis & Butthead) were arrested. ABC7 stated the two were alleged firing a BB gun from a nearby backyard. It wasn't clear if they were targeting Suter or her news van, but the 16- and 17-year-old boys were arrested on suspicion of assault with a deadly weapon.
They were released to their parents, and the San Bernardino County D.A. will decide whether to prosecute, according to City News Service.
KABC-TV president and general manager Arnold Kleiner released an ass-covering statement saying that station reporters "are very conscious of good safety practices" and "could not have anticipated that someone would decide to target them in this way.''
