HOUSTON (AP) — An ex-Army pay agent from Texas has been accused of theft and fraud related to military invoices he processed in Iraq.
Prosecutors in Houston on Thursday announced the indictment of Abuzuike O. Ukabam of Humble. Investigators allege the former Army captain, who was arrested Wednesday in Los Angeles, stole about $110,000.
A nine-count indictment returned July 30 and unsealed Wednesday charges Ukabam with wire fraud, theft of government property, money laundering and making false statements.
Ukabam in 2006 deployed to Iraq and processed invoices from Iraqi contractors working for the U.S. military.
Prosecutors accuse Ukabam of changing some totals, paying the contractor the original amount and keeping the difference.
Ukabam is expected to be returned to Houston.

HOUSTON (AP) — A Houston woman has been charged with killing her spouse during an argument that included her daughter.
Police say 46-year-old Dedra Jackson was being held Monday on a murder charge. The case involves Saturday night's fatal shooting of 44-year-old Nathaniel Jackson at a residence.
Police say Dedra Jackson had a confrontation with her 22-year-old daughter and her husband was shot when he tried to intervene. Nathaniel Jackson was dead at the scene.
Bond has been set at $75,000 for Dedra Jackson. Online jail records did not list an attorney for the woman, who was booked on Sunday.

HOUSTON (AP) — A 73-year-old Houston woman has been hailed for scaring off a suspected burglar by stabbing him with a barbecue fork.
Houston police spokesman Kese Smith said Monday that nobody has been arrested.
Margaret Jackson says she stopped by her daughter's house Friday afternoon when she saw a young man trying to break in through the back door.
Jackson, who was alone in the home, says she looked around the kitchen for some utensils to use as weapons. She grabbed a barbecue fork and scissors.
Jackson says she flung open the door and struggled with the youth. Jackson says she stabbed the suspect in the neck with the fork as he ran away. She wasn't injured.

HOUSTON (AP) — Houston police say an infant has died after being shot while in a car with her mother and some of the woman's friends.
Police on Monday did not immediately release the name of the victim or further details on whether anyone has been arrested. Investigators are trying to determine a motive for the gunfire.
The shooting happened early Sunday in a Houston neighborhood as two men on foot opened fire on a car.
Sgt. Peg Jewell says an SUV then drove by and the occupants fired more bullets into the car. The wounded baby was transported to a Houston hospital, where she died. Nobody else was hurt.

MARLIN, Texas (AP) — Investigators in Central Texas say a man's body has been found near where a missing Texas A&M student's vehicle was located.
Police in Marlin says search dogs located the body Monday night in a wooded area. No identity has been released. Police Chief Darrell Allen says an autopsy has been ordered.
Relatives say Anthony Joseph Carey of Houston left home last Thursday, bound for school in College Station. Allen says a car belonging to the 22-year-old senior was found Saturday along a road in Marlin, about 25 miles southeast of Waco.
Investigators have not said whether foul play is suspected in the death.

HOUSTON (AP) — Houston police say a dispute over one dancer bumping another led to gunfire that left three men dead and three women wounded.
Police on Tuesday appealed to the public to provide information in the search for the gunman.
Police say the incident began early Sunday inside Club ICU then moved to the parking lot where a fight broke out.
Police spokesman John Cannon says the initial dispute was over one woman bumping the other while both were on the dance floor.
Police identified the three men who died as 38-year-old Gilbert Kibble, 22-year-old Curtis Stewart and 26-year-old Felipe Castillo. Names of the three women who were wounded haven't been released.
Cannon says police are trying to determine whether the two women who originally argued were among the three injured females.

HOUSTON (AP) — Searchers have discovered a woman's body in a wooded area of Houston.
Police are trying to identify the body located Monday night by volunteers with Texas EquuSearch.
Relatives of 48-year-old Norma Jean Scott had asked group members to help look for the woman, who's been missing since Thursday.
Frank Black with Texas Equusearch says volunteers are not sure if the body they found is the missing woman.
Officer J.C. Padilla says police were contacted after the body was located in an overgrown vacant lot.
An autopsy has been ordered.

HOUSTON (AP) — Houston police have shot and killed a man who allegedly fired into his estranged wife's office then tried to enter the building.
Internal affairs officers are reviewing Tuesday afternoon's shooting. Police say the officer who fatally shot the suspect has been with the force since 1984.
Police say a 911 call from the woman, who had a restraining order against her husband, summoned officers.
Investigators say the suspect, who briefly ducked into a waiting taxi he apparently took to the building, refused to put down a pistol and threatened to harm his spouse. An officer shot the husband before the suspect could enter the woman's building.
Houston police believe the gunman, whose name was not immediately released, was also responsible for a shot fired into the building early Tuesday.

HOUSTON (AP) — Union officials say a tentative four-year agreement has been reached with hundreds of striking janitors in Houston.
Authorities say the janitors will vote Saturday on the deal that would increase wages 12 percent, to about $9.35 an hour.
Nearly 500 janitors went on strike July 10 for better wages and increased benefits. Their contract expired May 31.
The agreement was announced in a statement Wednesday night on behalf of the unions, including the Service Employees International Union Local 1.
President Tom Balanoff says the agreement with janitors brings hope to security officers, airport workers and others trapped by what he calls "poverty wages."
The SEIU represents about 3,200 hundred Houston-area janitors.

HOUSTON (AP) — Houston coach Gary Kubiak found "some ugly" when he broke down a replay of the Texans' victory to open the preseason.
The Texans beat Carolina 26-13 behind a dominant defensive effort Saturday night. The Panthers mustered only 137 yards and failed to gain a first down in the second half.
Trindon Holliday returned a kickoff 90 yards for a touchdown, rookie Randy Bullock kicked a long field goal and Houston's defense made eight sacks.
But the overall performance was far from flawless — Matt Schaub threw an interception, Arian Foster fumbled, and the Texans sputtered in the red zone and were called for eight penalties.
"There was some ugly," Kubiak said Sunday. "The thing I worry about in the first game, I tell the guys all the time, 'Hey, you're going to make mistakes, let 'em go. But I want to see you play hard.' We gave great effort in the game, so I'm very pleased with that. There are a lot of things for us to move forward on."
Kubiak said nose tackle Shaun Cody may miss some time with a "disk issue" in his back. Cody received an epidural injection on Sunday, and he'll be evaluated again on Monday.
But Kubiak expects receiver Andre Johnson and linebacker Brian Cushing to play when the Texans (No. 6 in the AP Pro32) face San Francisco (No. 4) in their second preseason game on Saturday. Johnson strained his groin in the first week of training camp, and Cushing missed time last week with an illness.
Schaub and Foster only played the first quarter in Charlotte. Foster fumbled after gaining 11 yards on his only carry and Schaub was picked off on his sixth throw in his first game since fracturing his right foot last November.
Foster lost three fumbles in 2011, about the only stain on his second straight Pro Bowl season. Kubiak says Foster will get more carries against the 49ers.
"Arian knows he's got to hang onto the ball," Kubiak said. "I don't have to tell him that. I do tell him on a regular basis, but he knows that."
Inconsistent execution in the red zone, another issue last season, also emerged again.
The Texans ranked 23rd in red-zone efficiency in 2011, finishing with touchdowns on only 29 of 62 drives inside the opponents' 20-yard line (47 percent). Two Houston drives stalled inside the Carolina 5 in the first half, setting up field goals on Saturday, and the Panthers stopped another drive at the 9-yard line in the third quarter.
"I thought we had some opportunities to make some plays," Kubiak said. "The field gets smaller down there, you've got to make the little plays. It's something we've been working really hard on in practice. The key to us in the red zone is running the ball well. Overall, if we play better in the red zone, there are a lot more points."
Houston final broke through in the red zone when reserve running back Jonathan Grimes scored from the 3 in the third quarter. Grimes, a 5-foot-10, 209-pound undrafted rookie, rushed nine times for 37 yards.
The 5-5, 170-pound Holliday was another bright spot, returning six kicks (three kickoffs and three punts) for 182 total yards. Holliday spent the 2010 season on injured reserve with a left thumb injury, then played most of last season on the practice squad.
"It's a big step for him in the right direction," Kubiak said. "The biggest thing we're going to do is give him a chance to be our all-time returner."
A sixth-round draft pick out of LSU in 2010, Kubiak would like to see Holliday prove he could handle punt and kickoff returns full-time. Kubiak will keep Holliday out of the regular offense for now because he wants to watch rookies DeVier Posey and Keshawn Martin and others compete for the lower receiving spots on the depth chart.
Kubiak will also have to choose between kickers Shayne Graham and Bullock and both went 2 for 2 on field-goal tries in Carolina. Graham, a Pro Bowler in 2005, was good from 20 and 37 yards. Bullock, a rookie fifth-round draft pick, connected from 21 and 52 yards. Kubiak sent Bullock out to try the long one midway through the fourth quarter.
"I don't know that I'm kicking that field goal in a regular-season game, right there in that situation," Kubiak said. "But I wanted to give him a chance. He put it in the net from 52 or 53, so he's been very impressive. But Shayne's having a good camp, too, so it's going to be a very good competition."

New MacBook Pro Santa Rosa First Look with Benchmarks
Quick Reply
The new, new, new MacBook Pro hit the shelves today. This latest third revision to the MacBook Pro line follows quickly behind the updates to the regular MacBook; speed and memory. It's more of the same here with a processor upgrade from 2.33 to 2.4Ghz, an nVidia 8600m GT graphics processor replacing the ATI X1600 and a switch to Intel's new "Santa Rosa" mobile chipset offering 800Mhz front-side bus and support for 4Gb of RAM.
None of this can be seen from the outside but the new LED illuminated screen can be, promising lower power needs and a more 'white' light I've seen great results on other laptops but, well, it's very nice, which is a polite way of saying that the original was very good already and the new one, whilst also great is little different; it's great, perhaps a little let down but I'm not sure what I was expecting really. The MacBook Pro still sits at the top of all of 'Laptop-dom' though in the screen stakes.
Anything else? Well, it's been working out over the winter and has trimmed a little fat weighing in at 5.4 pounds (2.45Kg). This is reassuringly heavy but Apple, if you're reading don't fix that, it's not broken!
The range includes 15" 1440x900 resolution and 17" 1680x1050 resolution display units with the LED only available on the 15" at the moment. Processors have jumped to 2.2 and 2.4GHz on the 15" and 2.4Ghz only for the 17". One last change is the move from an Hitachi hard disk to a Fujitsu; largely the same specification and capacity so perhaps just a supply change. 120Gb or 160Gb for the 15" and 160Gb for the 17". Base pricing runs from $2,000 to $2,800 but all get 2Gb RAM and the 8x Dual-Layer SuperDrive, or DVD burner as we call it. Options include 4Gb RAM, 7200rpm disk drives at 160Gb and 250Gb hard disks though only 4200rpm. New is the option for a higher resolution (1920x1200) display on the 17" - worth it in my opinion.
Software installed is unchanged; Mac OS-X 10.4.x but remember, Apples aren't just for Mac OS-X anymore, Apples run Windows XP and Vista too. They run Vista particularly well and Apple have released the version 1.3 update to its 'BootCamp' software that includes the drivers for this new models Intel Chipset and, as plus for other MacBook PRO users; drivers for the keyboard lighting - Hurrah! BootCamp can be found at
No write up on any Apple product can get by without asking the question "Why would I spend so much on an Apple when I could buy an X from Y for just $Z?" Let's look at the new MacBook PRO; in 15" screen with 2Gb RAM and 256 meg graphics, it's $2,499... I could buy THREE Dell laptops for that sort of money; seriously; check out the Inspiring 6400 or whatever it's called but, I reckon that, as you've read this far, you're with me... you don't want a Dell, not even three of them. You want a cool laptop... join me as we go over to the dark side of premium consumer products.
The previous model MacBook Pro and the new MacBook Pro.
I'm a premium consumer, there I said it. I have a cheap laptop, it's fine, it does what it's supposed to do but I'm un-inspired by it. What I need out of my products is a certain 'X' factor, that thing that makes you forget about the cost ten minutes after the purchase and leaves you feeling good every time you use it and with Apple; the 'X' factor comes in spades... heaps of it. Did you know that the insides of the MacBook Pro are all cast aluminum? No, it is, the hard disk is held in place, not by plastic moldings, but by little rubber cones that suspend the hard disk in air, touching nothing... And you wonder why you can't hear it? That's quality, quality that makes you feel that your investment was worthwhile. There's loads of that stuff like that in the MacBook and the latest version just adds more.
Apple have always cherry picked the best parts; there is a reason that they've always been expensive! The latest MacBook PRO is no exception.
Here's how the new stacks up against the old... In short, it's just faster. The graphics sub-system and the memory show the greatest gains though, in some tasks the older ATI was better; typically, early graphics adapter drivers can show this trait, let's see if an update will turn that around. A rough number of 6% across the board as an improvement is nice. I used Passmark Performance test 6.1 under Windows Vista to benchmark the machine.
Here's how the new stacks up against the old... In short, it's just faster. The graphics sub-system was slower but I suspect that is more about how I jammed the desktop driver into the system so I'm going to ignore that which leaves me with a rough number of 10% as an improvement which is nice. If you'd like to see the complete benchmark results as a (large!) image, click
It's early to say how the LED screen will improve power but on full everything the previous model lasted about 2 hours, this one is reporting some more; about 2.5 hours; so, that's 6% more computing power with an extra 25% battery life.
To sum up, it's an incremental step forward; advancing an already top flight system, if you have a MacBook PRO already, enjoy it, it's a very nice piece of hardware, if you don't have one, well, Apple have just given you another great incentive. Buy it.

It shouldn't, but it still amazes me how uncritical Apple's reviewers are. viz
"2.45Kg [...] is reassuringly heavy but Apple, if you're reading don't fix that, it's not broken!". Yeah. If laptops are light, that's great. If they're heavy, that's great too. We worship you, Oh Apple, you can do no wrong.
"Software installed is unchanged; Mac OS-X 10.4.x". Where's the free upgrade when the new version is out in just a few months?
"it's just faster. The graphics sub-system was slower but I suspect that is more about how I jammed the desktop driver into the system". So sorry Apple, any improvements are to your credit, anything that's not so good is the reviewer's fault entirely.
And, the best bit: "No write up on any Apple product can get by without asking the question "Why would I spend so much on an Apple when I could buy an X from Y for just $Z?". The answers are:
"What I need out of my products is a certain 'X' factor, that thing that makes you forget about the cost ten minutes after the purchase". Not so much a reason to pay 3x the price as a prerequisite.
"the hard disk is held in place, not by plastic [...], but by [...] rubber". Wow!
"Apple have always cherry picked the best parts; there is a reason that they've always been expensive". Yeah, the very best 2.4GHz Intel processor, the very best nVidia 8600m GT graphics processor, the very best 'Santa Rosa' mobile chipset. Gotta get out early in the morning and pick them when they're dew-fresh and at their best.
"Apples run Windows XP and Vista too. They run Vista particularly well." Whatever does that mean? In what way do they run Vista better than PCs?

I get it...
Another jealous Windows user who wants Apple quality (and probably Mac OS X) for his OS limited PC. You say the Macbook Pro is a little heavy compared to a few flimsy PC laptops but if you read the review properly Apple make a sturdy strong machine. Weight isn't everything unless you are wimp. It isn't that heavy anyway and the fact is the aluminium internal chassis is what gives it that little bit of extra weight and it also makes it a lot stronger than a laptop PC with cheap plastic insides. As far as I am concerned, strength and quality over a tiny weight increase is a better trade off.
I have owned Macs for 14 years and computers in general for 26 years. I support Windows PCs and Macs for a British ISP and I can tell you now. Mac OS X is the reason everyone should switch. I spend the day talking to frustrated XP and Vista users who have a real negative atitude like this guy. Seriously I can understand how he can't see why Mac users are so enthusiastic about their computers. We are cup half full people as our experience is generally enjoyable. Many of us have switched away from the dark side and they never look back. Whereas Windohs users are generally looking for something else to criticise. For them, what should be an enjoyable computing experience is mediocre at best. Fighting viruses and spyware gives them a sense of achievement as does managing to get MS to re-activate their OS after a re-install due to say the Windows registry getting all crappy and messed up. Yet even a tiny minority of them take it to the extreme. Despite Apple's small 6.3% market share this small chunk of Windows users still feel they need to criticise us and our choice. As if they feel threatened somehow. They feel they have to fight for Microsoft on every bulletin board slagging off the Mac using old myths, a lot of emotionalism and often bad language and insults to try in a futile attempt to prove a point that died out years ago. They refuse to even consider a Mac despite the rave reviews and general enthusiasm Mac users have for their machines and OS X. They call us fanboys and other silly names and generally act very immaturely. Stockholm syndrome anyone!!!
Working on support fully reinforces why I use a Mac. All the same people ring me with issues on their Outlook/MS exchange setups but my Mac users just ring me for advice on how much RAM they need or if there is any software I would recommend for such and such an application or maybe just a chat. Their's is a transparent user experience. The Mac just works for them but the Windows users have to spend a decent chunk of time every month keeping their machines tip-top playing with settings, defragging, updating virus definitions, running adware and spyware checkers or their machine. Otherwise they will slow down to a crawl. Or they have to shell out for someone else to do it for them. No wonder I.T. companies prefer Windows. It keeps them in a job justifying high salaries.
Also, as you can only run OS X on a Mac and Macs are high quality machines with a competitive pricepoint compared to PC's of similar quality then why buy anything else. PC users say it's about choice. Well you can run any software you like for OS X, Vista, XP, Linux etc on a Mac and everything but OS X apps on any other PC As there are a huge selection of extremely high quality OS X only apps out there to use and many at a very reasonable price, I say the choice is in what software you want to use. After all, it's about the software, not what hardware you want. Hardware is not worth diddly squat without good software. If you buy a Mac you can run any Win software you want. As well great Mac apps like Final Cut Pro, Logic, Aperture at the high end and iMovie, Garageband and iPhoto for free.
Why limit your choice with an OS limited box when you can have everything as your choice with a Mac.
The decision is easy. Get a Mac.

Keep in mind that those benchmarks were run without the proper video drivers under Windows Vista, not Mac OS. Expect much better performance for graphics when running the OS that shipped with the MacBook Pro. Also expect better performance under Vista once the proper drivers are installed for the graphics card.
As for the rest, they're Michael's opinions, so he'll have to answer those.

Osprey Packs Sizing Chart
Step 1 - Pack Sizing
All Osprey packs, save the transit bags, are available in multiple sizes to fit a range of torso lengths. To find your torso length, have a friend measure your back along the spine from the level of your iliac crest (the top of your hipbones) to your C7 (the knobby bone at the base of your neck).
Step 2 - Hipbelt Sizing
To determine your hipbelt size measure around your hips, not your waist. A properly fitted hipbelt rides centered over the hipbones and needs to be very snug; after all it will be carrying the bulk of the pack's weight. The padded portion should wrap well around your hips, leaving a gap of 3 to 6 inches between the tips of the pads when securely tightened.
Nearly all Osprey hipbelts use an exclusive ErgoPull design. It creates mechanical advantage to provide extra leverage in cinching down the hipbelt. The ErgoPull design also draws tension along the top and bottom of the belt, not through the center, so it distributes pressure more evenly over the padding and relieves direct pressure on the hipbones.
Step 3 - Harness
Osprey Crescent & Luna, Aether & Ariel and Waypoint packs offer interchangeable shoulder harnesses. Harness sizing usually corresponds to pack size, but your best bet is to try one on. A properly fit harness should terminate 2 to 3" beneath the armpit. Webbing should not touch the body. By breaking the hook and loop connection and sliding the harness up and down the backpanel the torso length can be adjusted up to 3". (see illustration).
Step 4 - Overall Fit
Once you have the correct size pack, harness and hipbelt, and the torso length set properly, it's time to put some weight in the pack (20 to 30 pounds of well distributed weight will do) and dial in the fit. First, snug down the hipbelt and harness. Connect the sternum strap (A) - position it about 2 inches below your collarbones and snug it down lightly. Finally, tighten the load lifter straps to draw the load solidly against your back. The lift straps (B) should come off your shoulders at a 45 to 60 degree angle in Osprey's ReCurve and Ethereal Suspension packs. In other models these straps serve more as compression straps and ride flatter; they may even angle downwards.
In a good fit, there should be no pressure points and no gaps between your body and the pack. With Osprey's ReCurve packs, final tweaking may involve custom fitting the aluminum stays to your back.
