NEWCASTLE — Four federal inmates were injured after a fight broke out aboard a U.S. Marshal's Service bus on Interstate 44 on Monday morning, and one inmate was taken to a local hospital, a Marshal's Service spokesman said.
A fight in a U.S. Marshal's Service bus injures four inmates in Oklahoma
Oklahoma Highway Patrol troopers were requested near the Newcastle toll gate about 6:10 a.m. Monday to assist with the incident, according to a news release from the patrol. As many as 50 inmates were aboard the bus.
The inmates were being taken from the Grady County jail — one of two local jails used to house federal inmates — to the Federal Transfer Center at the Will Rogers World Airport, said Marshal's Service Deputy Andrew Joseph. Federal offenders also are housed at the Logan County jail.
Joseph said many federal inmates, including the ones involved in the fight, pass through Oklahoma on their way to the various federal prisons where they serve out their sentences. The inmates involved had already been sentenced, and they were being sent to the Federal Transfer Center to be assessed for security levels before being sent to an appropriate facility.
Joseph said he could offer no further details on the inmates or the nature of the incident, but he did note that the FBI has opened an investigation.

As a part of the Obama Administration's all-of-the-above energy strategy, the U.S. Energy Department today announced the selection of three pioneering offshore wind demonstrations to receive up to $47 million each over the next four years to deploy innovative, grid-connected systems in federal and state waters by 2017. These projects – located off the coast of New Jersey, Oregon and Virginia – will help speed the deployment of more efficient offshore wind power technologies. Building on the Energy Department's broader efforts to launch a competitive and sustainable offshore wind industry in the United States, these demonstration projects will help further lower costs, drive greater performance and clear hurdles to installing more utility-scale turbines in U.S. waters.
"Offshore wind offers a large, untapped energy resource for the United States that can create thousands of manufacturing, construction and supply chain jobs across the country and drive billions of dollars in local economic investment," said Energy Secretary Ernest Moniz. "The Energy Department is working with public and private partners to harness this untapped resource in a sustainable and economic manner. The offshore wind projects announced today further this commitment -- bringing more clean, renewable energy to our homes and businesses, diversifying our energy portfolio, and reducing costs through innovation."
In December 2012, the Energy Department announced seven offshore wind demonstration projects, which have focused on design, engineering, and permitting work. The three projects selected today are aimed at deploying offshore wind installations in U.S. waters by 2017:
•Fishermen's Energy will install five 5-megawatt direct-drive wind turbines approximately three miles off the coast of Atlantic City, New Jersey. This project will utilize an innovative, U.S.-developed twisted jacket foundation that is simpler and less expensive to manufacture and install than traditional offshore wind foundations. Fishermen's project will act as a laboratory for researchers to learn about offshore wind and investigate interactions between turbines.
•Principle Power will install five 6-megawatt direct-drive wind turbines approximately 18 miles off the coast of Coos Bay, Oregon. The U.S.-developed WindFloat semi-submersible floating foundation will be installed in water more than 1,000 feet deep, demonstrating an innovative solution for deep water wind turbine projects and lowering costs by simplifying installation and eliminating the need for highly specialized ships. More than 60 percent of U.S. offshore wind resources are found in deep waters, including the entirety of the West Coast. Deploying offshore wind technologies for deeper water can help capture resources that are found in waters too deep for traditional bottom-mounted foundations.
•Dominion Virginia Power will install two 6-megawatt direct-drive wind turbines 26 miles off the coast of Virginia Beach, utilizing a U.S.-designed twisted jacket foundation. Dominion's project will demonstrate installation, operation and maintenance methods for wind turbines located far from shore. Additionally, the Dominion project will install and test a hurricane-resilient design to ensure that offshore wind facilities placed in hurricane-prone U.S. waters are reliable, safe, and cost-effective.
The proposals from the University of Maine and from the Lake Erie Energy Development Corporation offered additional innovative approaches that, with additional engineering and design, will further enhance the portfolio of American offshore wind technology options. This includes concrete semi-submersible foundations as well as monopile foundations designed to reduce ice loading. The Department will continue to work with these teams to advance their designs to deployment readiness. Taken together, the innovations being developed and demonstrated will position the United States to lower the barriers to significant offshore wind, contributing to a low carbon future.
Broadly, the Energy Department's efforts to advance innovative offshore wind technologies support the Obama Administration's comprehensive National Offshore Wind Strategy to develop a sustainable, world-class offshore wind industry. As part of that strategy, the Energy Department continues to work with partners across the government, including the Department of the Interior, to conduct resource assessments, streamline siting and permitting and overcome technical and market challenges to installation, operations and grid connection.

The Futurist Interviews Longevity Expert Sonia Arrison
Live Very Long and Prosper a Lot
Think how culturally and materially richer we would be if people could live, be healthy, and contribute to society up to ages of 150, 200, or beyond. Thus argues Sonia Arrison, senior fellow at the Pacific Research Institute. In her book 100 Plus: How the Coming Age of Longevity Will Change Everything, From Careers and Relationships to Family and Faith (Basic Books, 2011), she tracks the advancements of "life-extension" medical techniques, which undo the damage that our bodies incur over time. With further refinement of such procedures, Arrison hopes, we could look forward to unprecedented innovation and societal reform as brilliant innovators stay with us and share their knowledge and experience for decades—and in time, centuries—longer than they would today. She spoke about this with Rick Docksai, assistant editor for THE FUTURIST.
THE FUTURIST: Your book will find a lot of fans here in the World Future Society. Life extension is a topic that excites a great many of us.
Sonia Arrison: One of the things that excites me is that a lot of the science sounds like science fiction, but it isn't science fiction anymore. You might have heard about the man who had cancer of the trachea and was going to die. Doctors tried an experimental procedure to grow a new trachea in the lab. The surgery was done using a synthetic scaffold. It's been a month since the surgery, and the man is cancer-free.
THE FUTURIST: Countries across the globe anticipate having huge populations of senior citizens on their hands and not enough resources to serve all of them. People are living longer than ever as it is, and it is actually creating some problems. In such an environment, why would countries want to pursue life extension?
Arrison: If people are around longer and they're healthier, then the entire society is going to be wealthier. That's because we're not giving up the experience. Think of all the older people you know who are super smart and have tons of experience, but then they die and it's lost, and the next generation has to rebuild. If we didn't have to lose all that experience as quickly, we wouldn't have to keep rebuilding. It would be a tremendous resource for society.
If we look back at history, most of the greatest innovation is done by people in their later years. Elderly people, because of their experience and because of the trial and error they have been through, are really good at coming up with new products and ideas.
THE FUTURIST: I imagine that progress toward life extension will vary country to country. South Korea is reportedly far ahead of the United States in stem cell research, and some people expect that much pharmaceutical research now taking place in the United States might move to France and Germany. What advantage would countries like South Korea, France, and Germany have over others? If they achieve super-long life spans before other countries do, how would geopolitics change?
Sonia Arrison: That's a really smart question. One of the reasons America is a leader in the world is because we're so wealthy. Economic research shows that health creates wealth. There are seven country studies that show that living extra years creates extra growth. If one country has a five-year advantage in life expectancy then real income per capita grows between 0.3 and 0.5 percent faster per year. That's pretty significant when you consider that between 1965 and 1990, real income per capita growth was only 2 percent per year. And that's just with a 5-year advantage. Imagine if it's a 20-year difference! This really could put the U.S. at risk if we don't keep up.
THE FUTURIST: As you note, life extension has a lot of skeptics and some opponents. Perhaps speaking of "life extension" and "living to 125 or more" can unsettle people. Perhaps the concept is more palatable if presented as boosting senior citizens' well-being and reversing aging. What do you think?
Arrison: I think the best way to make the pitch is to take a look at what our health-care system looks like now. Most of the money spent on health care is spent at the end of life. If we could come up with technologies to make people healthier longer, we'd be spending less money on health care period.
THE FUTURIST: What would death look like, if people aren't getting sick and dying of all things that they do now?
Arrison: I think the progression of morbidity would be different. I think we would be healthy for a long time and drop off quicker. I'm looking at a health span of 150 years. But eventually, we will see a society where we just keep repairing people indefinitely. The only thing that's going to kill you is accidents or some plague or something that we can't predict. There would still be things that can kill you, but they'd be quick, and you wouldn't spend months in the hospital sucking up a lot of resources.
THE FUTURIST: How fast are we moving toward the extended life spans that you describe in the book? How fast should we move, ideally?
Arrison: I think that we are moving a lot faster than most of us realize, but we're also not moving fast enough. The reason we're moving faster is new technology, plus people are more interconnected today: There is the Internet. Another reason is expanding computer power.
But we're not focused on this as a goal. I don't see society as concentrated on being healthy and living longer, like it was on going to the Moon. We're going to lose a lot of people we would not have lost in the first place. I don't want to lose all those people, so I want us to move faster.

Interesting - just completed a blog item on this.
I am really intrigued by Sonia Arrison's perspective on living longer. Initially the idea of a population living way beyond 100 was rather alarming. Many of us have grown up with the notion that you work a certain number of years and then retire. However, the traditional picture of retirement has indeed lost its appeal and many of us intend to either work longer or fulfill a dream or ambition. Living longer brings with it certain pressures such us sustaining the quality of life both in terms of economics and health. Will science really be able to repair our bodies sufficiently to allow us to work and play at a vibrant level for longer and how will we pay for our extended lives? Maybe the question is how long should we live? I think that there are sociological questions to answer as well as spiritual and psychological issues to consider. All in all it is a fascinating subject.
I wish Sonia would have said
I wish Sonia would have said more to encourage everyone to buy her book.
Living longer so you could follow your dreams is only good if you can afford it. No matter the transition, we all live in an economic society.... that follows the golden rule. I guess a qualifier for long life equals some form of trade off. Anyone want to paint that scenario?
No doubt, there will be new rules on euthanasia. (no need for "life" in prison?)
A new industry will be born. (the evolution of "Make A Wish" ...) ??

The First Snow of the Winter Comes Early to Toronto - Is This Global Warming?
November 17, 2014 - When I awoke this morning there was a couple of centimeters of snow on the ground here in mid-town Toronto.

But for some reason, this recent cold snap seems to have arrived early this year and along with it the white stuff.

No Blu-ray For Xbox 360?
"Xbox is not currently in talks with Sony or the Blu-ray Association to integrate Blu-ray into the Xbox experience," (Xbox group product manage Aaron) Greenberg told Reuters in an interview.
One possible reason why Microsoft isn't developing a Blu-ray player just yet is that they might be planning on pushing their Xbox Live video rental service harder. Why back a competitor's technology when you can vertically integrate?
|Microsoft has already probed the market for an add-on player with their HD-DVD player. If that wasn't terribly successful for them, then there is no reason for them to offer a Blu-Ray player that has nothing to do with actual game play. I'm sure they aren't terribly overjoyed with the prospect of creating more business for their primary rival either. Regardless of whether the 360 gets Blu-Ray capabilities their next gen system will have to be based off of Blu-Ray.

Volunteers top most wanted list for 'Britain's FBI' as National Crime Agency is launched
Britain's elite new police force launches today with appeal for private sector to fill its skills gap
Paul Peachey
Paul Peachey is Crime Correspondent at the Independent
Crime Correspondent
Monday 07 October 2013
Britain's new elite police agency is to sign up a force of unpaid bankers, accountants and computer experts to help tackle the country's most serious criminals.
The private-sector recruitment drive is a central part of the National Crime Agency's strategy to disrupt gangs involved in drug trafficking, gun smuggling, child abuse, corruption, fraud and cyber crime.
The agency begins its work today with a pledge to target 37,000 criminals linked to 5,500 gangs. It replaces the discredited Serious Organised Crime Agency (Soca) – often dubbed Britain's FBI – which was criticised for its failure to put enough "Mr Bigs" behind bars and for not doing enough to claw back their criminal assets.
Critics questioned whether the new agency – which has few legal powers that were not granted to Soca – would be effective, with Labour saying yesterday that the NCA was merely a "rebranding" exercise. The plan to recruit industry experts to address a shortage of technical skills indicates the nature of emerging threats from organised crime and the sophisticated technology which allows them to be successful.
The agency has already recruited 10 volunteers, so-called "NCA Specials", and is now looking for accountants, computer experts and lawyers to help it locate hidden criminal assets, the organisation's director-general Keith Bristow said. The estimated cost of fraud from organised gangs has reached nearly £9bn a year.
Criminals with specific skills and who have served their sentences will not be allowed to volunteer and all those who are accepted will be vetted, Mr Bristow said. "We have people queuing up at the door… we are finding no shortage of people wanting to join us, but we have to be highly selective."
Labour said on Sunday that it would be asking questions in Parliament about the basis for taking on the volunteers and the level of expertise within the NCA. "The Government is not yet prepared to tackle the challenges of the 21st century," David Hanson, the shadow policing minister, said.
Steve Williams, chairman of the Police Federation of England and Wales, said the push for volunteers was likely a reflection of the Government's budget cuts. "This is symptomatic of what is happening across the service," he said. "We have lost around 14,000 police officers; it's a 'more for less' culture [and] you have to ask where it will stop."
Mr Bristow said that the NCA would be an "open, transparent and accountable" organisation but would not comply with freedom-of-information requests, unlike police forces. Labour has called for private sector involvement in policing to be subject to such scrutiny. "We rely on relationships with overseas law enforcement to assist in what we do," Mr Bristow said. "We're also going to increasingly rely on the relationship with the private sector. There's a very real danger that being required to operate in line with freedom of information could fracture some of those relationships."
The NCA is the third major overhaul of organised-crime policing since 1997 and represents a change in approach to tackling the most serious criminals. Tony Blair vowed to "make life hell" for criminals when he set up Soca in 2006, which brought together police, intelligence agencies, customs and immigration. But the agency was riven with in-fighting, according to former members.
The new organisation will take on many Soca staff but the police-led service is designed to be more visible than its predecessor and has a wider remit to tackle organised crime with a £463m budget. It will keep staff in 120 countries including Pakistan.
Witness protection has UK-wide remit
The first UK-wide witness protection scheme is to be launched today to help secure convictions and care for vulnerable witnesses. More than 3,000 people whose lives are at risk will get protection under the UK Protected Persons Service, said Helen Grant, the victims minister.
"People who put their lives at risk to bring dangerous criminals to justice are the unsung heroes of society. They deserve our thanks and protection. That's why the UK Protected Persons Service is so important," Ms Grant said.
Last year, just over a quarter of prosecutions that collapsed, did so because a witness or victim was reluctant to give evidence.
In 2009/10, 18 per cent of court witnesses said they or their family felt intimidated, and 40 per cent said they were worried about coming into contact with the defendant and their supporters.

Will Bartolo Colon Take Less Money To Return To Oakland Athletics?
Despite going through the formality of not offering Bartolo Colon a qualifying offer for 2014, the Oakland Athletics are still the front-runners to obtain the veteran free agent's services for 2014.
Being the favorites is hardly a lock, however, and the fact of that matter is that there will be a good number of suitors vying for the 40-year-old's age-defying arm. As much as Billy Beane and co. likes having the veteran on board and as much value as he's given the team, it's likely that goodwill, for what it's worth, will end up playing a major part in the right-hander's decision.
Fortunately, that element of their relationship appears to be well, as both parties have expressed an interest for a 2014 encore and potentially beyond; that said, it's the specificity of the second part, where there might be a wrench thrown in.
See, according to the man himself, Colon would like to pitch for upwards of three more seasons. That's three years that he won't be getting from the payroll-conscious Oakland A's, and I think it'd be fair to say that even if teams believed that he truly found the fountain of youth, that would be enough to give most teams serious pause if it happened to be a contract demand.
Now, that doesn't happen to be the case, but it does establish a scenario where the A's could be easily outbid on the free agent market.
Ideally, the A's would probably love to have Colon back on another incentive-laden one-year deal with a higher base salary than the $3 million that he received in 2013. Since that isn't happening, however, the team is looking more at a two-year deal that would pay him more annually than the $5.4 million he earned in total (courtesy of MLBTR) after bonuses.
Anywhere from $14-18 million over two seasons seems reasonable, though a one-year deal with an option would be better, of course.
That, however, might not even be enough to lock down the right-hander if the final decision came down to money. With teams like the New York Yankees and Toronto Blue Jays looking hard to pursue short-window veterans to bolster their chances to compete over the next season or two, the market for low-commitment arms (time-wise) with a strong track record might actually end up yielding the most intense bidding wars.
And as it so happens, Colon basically leads that particular segment of the free agent market, since Hiroki Kuroda has limited the teams he will pitch for.
Though it's hard to see a team giving the former a deal with an annual salary close to the $14.1 million qualifying offer that he didn't get, it's not totally inconceivable for a team to offer him an eight-figure annual salary for two seasons. At that point, even if the A's were aware and were able to match, you'd have to think that it wouldn't be in their best interest to do so given their budget restrictions.
In that circumstance, they'd be banking on Colon taking a discount on what is probably his last chance to earn a multi-year contract to return to Oakland for the promise of a couple more playoff runs. That's a feasible scenario, given that the comfort level is already there for the veteran, and pitching for a big-money team like the Yankees isn't what it used to be (just look at A.J. Burnett, who is going to choose between the Pittsburgh Penguins or retirement).
But what if a team dared to offer the three years that Colon wants? Even if the third year was a vesting option, you'd have to think that would make the difference as it would give the pitcher the chance to accomplish what he wants in the bigs.
It's not necessarily the most likely scenario and teams who are not located in Los Angeles are pretty money-conscious these days, but goodwill can only trump money at some point. Even though the A's are still arguably the most likely landing spot for Colon, it'd probably be good for the team to start coming up with a plan B or C because that third year he wants could make the difference — even if it's not 100 percent about the dollars.
