Jamie McCourt
Jamie D. McCourt (born December 5, 1953)[1] is a businesswoman and investor. She is also a former executive of the Los Angeles Dodgers. She became the highest ranking woman in Major League Baseball, appointed first as Vice Chairman of the Dodgers in 2004, then as President in 2005, and finally as CEO in 2009.[2][3]
Early life[edit]
Jamie McCourt (née Luskin) was born in Baltimore, Maryland, to Jewish parents.[4] Her father, Jack Luskin, ran the Luskin's chain of appliance stores in Maryland.[5] As a 17-year-old freshman at Georgetown University, she met Frank McCourt, whom she would marry in 1979. She earned a degree in French at Georgetown University (1975), a law degree at the University of Maryland School of Law (1978) and an MBA from the MIT Sloan School of Management.[6]
She relocated from Boston to Los Angeles in 2004 with her husband and their four sons, Drew, Travis, Casey, and Gavin.[7] She joined the Dodgers' front-office organization as an executive after the team was acquired.[8]
For fifteen years she was a practicing attorney, engaged in international and securities law in New York as well as in corporate, real estate, and family law in Boston. She then spent ten years as vice president and general counsel of the McCourt Co., the family real estate development firm in Boston.
Beside her legal and real estate work, she also taught classes at the MIT Sloan School and the UCLA Anderson School of Management. She sponsored the 2009 Maccabiah Games, is a trustee of Los Angeles County Museum of Art, and in 2009 was appointed a trustee of the University of Southern California.[9] For her philanthropy to Jewish causes, in 2006 she received the National Scopus Award from the American Friends of The Hebrew University. In 2008, the Los Angeles Business Journal named Frank and Jamie McCourt the "Power Couple of the Year".
In September 2008, the McCourts purchased the Los Angeles Marathon.[10]
McCourt divorce/Dodgers ownership dispute[edit]
In October and November 2009 the McCourts separated and later commenced divorce proceedings. Their respective attorneys have publicly identified a dispute as to whether the Dodgers assets are community property (i.e. owned 50% by Jamie McCourt), or are separate property, 100% owned by Frank McCourt.[11] The team and stadium assets were purchased for $430 million in 2004 and were valued at $722 million in 2009 (according to Forbes), a theoretical increase in value of $292 million (68%) in five years.[12]
On October 22, 2009, Frank fired Jamie from her position as CEO of the Dodgers.[13]
Jamie McCourt was represented in the divorce by trial lawyer David Boies, with assistance from Wasser, Cooperman & Carter.[14]
On June 17, 2011, Frank and Jamie reached agreement on a settlement, which was contingent upon Major League Baseball approving a 17-year television contract between the Dodgers and FOX Television. The discussion set aside the Dodgers ownership issue until a scheduled one day trial on August 4, whereupon if the Judge sided with Frank he would keep the team and pay a settlement fee to Jamie and if the Judge sided with her the team would be sold.[15] However, on June 20, baseball rejected the television deal and the settlement agreement fell apart.[16] On June 27, 2011 the team filed bankruptcy papers and led to a bitter dispute between Frank and the Baseball Commissioner over the future of the team.
On October 17, 2011, it was announced that the McCourts had reached a settlement whereby Jamie McCourt would receive about $130 million and renounce her claims on the team. This settlement ended what is widely believed to be the costliest divorce in California history.[17]
When Frank sold the Dodgers the following year for a record $2 billion, Jamie claimed she was duped and petitioned the court to throw out the settlement and award her $770 million.[18] However, the Judge denied her motion and ruled that she is not entitled to more than the original settlement.[19]
After baseball[edit]
Since her divorce, Ms. McCourt has spent her time on her own company, Jamie Enterprises, as well as various community endeavors. She also was a visiting professor at the UCLA Anderson School of Management.[20] In 2012, Jamie was among those who helped LACMA raise $2.8 million to acquire new artworks at the museum's annual Collectors Committee weekend.[21] In 2013, she bought a vineyard estate in Napa Valley, California for $11.25 million with the intention of both living there part-time and continuing to produce the property's wine.[22][23]

Rachel Mok Hello! Im Rachel, and Im a current Ph.D. student in mechanical engineering. I had received my Masters from MIT and Bachelors from Purdue University Calumet, both in mechanical engineering, in 2013 and 2011, respectively. Currently, for my Ph.D. project, Im trying to develop numerical techniques that will enable the prediction of active matter dynamics on curved surfaces. In general, my research interests include fluid dynamics, especially biological fluid dynamics, and computation and simulation. I had really enjoyed working as a Teaching Assistant for Thermal Fluids I, and I am really excited to be able to continue helping students learn mechanical engineering topics as an instructor for WTP! Im originally from Alabama, and it has been quite a struggle adjusting to the cold winters of Boston. But I must say that summers here are much better than summers back in Alabama. Outside of MIT, I enjoy going to church, reading, hanging out with my friends, hiking, watching TV and movies, and playing the occasional game of tennis and/or badminton and/or table tennis (anything with a racket, really). Im really looking forward to meeting you all!
Natasha Wright Hello! My name is Natasha and I am currently a second-year Masters student in mechanical engineering. I received my Bachelors degree also in mechanical engineering from the University of St. Thomas in St. Paul, Minnesota. I am a member of the GEAR Lab, which focuses on end-user and stakeholder-driven design for emerging markets. My research is on the design of community-scale photovoltaic (PV) powered electrodialysis desalination systems for inland rural villages in India. Outside of lab, I love to travel and be outside. My desire to work on a research project in an emerging market sprang from years of travel and courses completed in Turkey, Chili, Peru, Tanzania, China, Micronesia and across Europe. I competed competitively in Nordic Skiing and Track (pole vault) throughout high school and now enjoy rock climbing, hiking, camping, white water rafting and pretty much anything else that gets me outside. I am looking forward to meeting everyone this summer!
Residential Tutors
Tori Jensen Hey everyone! I'm a sophomore studying Mechanical Engineering with a concentration in Comparative Media Studies. Last summer I worked at the Scheller Teacher Education Program (STEP) lab and helped build a website that lets kids make their own 3D video games and learn how to program! I love playing all types of sports, and I am the catcher on the MIT Varsity Softball team. Other things I love to do include, but are not limited to: making interpretive dances to all the songs on my Ipod, surfing through every Buzzfeed article known to mankind, and making (or attempting to make) crazy awesome friendship bracelets. I'm so excited to meet all of you and have a blast at WTP this summer!
Tanya Liu Hello! I'm a graduating senior in Mechanical Engineering with a focus on energy science. I'm originally from Ames, Iowa, though my family actually just recently moved to Virginia. I love board games, chamber music, and summertime. This will be my first summer with WTP, and I'm looking forward to meeting you guys!
Rachel Reed Sup y'all! I'm a rising junior in Mechanical Engineering with a minor in Applied International Studies. I'm a born and bred Houston, Texan but my family is originally from Argentina. At MIT I'm heavily involved with teaching, my sorority and various minority student activities. In my free time I love going sailing, making pottery, climbing trees, eating and reppin' the one and only lonestar state. Fun fact, this will be my fourth summer in a row at MIT.
Cheetiri Smith Hi there! I am a graduating senior in Mechanical Engineering with a focus on energy and design. I enjoy working with people and discovering new perspectives. Outside of class, I sing with the MIT/Wellesley Toons and play rugby for MIT. I enjoy reading, baking, cleaning, lifting, and just about most things. I enjoyed working as a Tutor for WTP so much last summer, I'm looking forward to meeting you all and having a great time!
Residential Assistant
Rosa Ruiz Hello! I am a freshman in Mechanical Engineering, but I'm also interested in Brain and Cognitive Science. I'm from San Jose, CA and am still coming to terms with the winters here. When I am not studying, working, or sleeping, I enjoy making origami, eating (almost anything), running along the Charles, and writing parody songs. I am super excited to be a part of WTP again, and I'm looking forward to meeting you guys!

Do you know how much you need to save for your retirement? Here are 11 tips, including figuring our your retirement costs and understanding Social Security benefits, to build your retirement savings.
Do you know how much money you need to save to retire? Fifty-six percent of the workforce does not know how much they need to save for retirement, and only 14 percent of Americans believe they will have enough money to retire comfortably.* For peace of mind, consider these top tips to get you on track for a comfortable retirement.
1. Start saving early so your funds can work for you.
2. Save often and make sure your retirement portfolio includes savings vehicles that balance the amount of risk and reward, such as fixed indexed annuities which offer a steady, guaranteed lifetime income stream while protecting you from market volatility.
3. Know your retirement goals and adjust your savings based on the kind of lifestyle you want. Consider things like food, health care, and housing, as well as elderly parents, children, and grandchildren to decide what retirement plan will give you the peace of mind you're looking for.
4. Get a clear picture of your retirement needs. The average couple will spend $240,000 on health costs alone during retirement.** Find out exactly how much money you'll need in retirement by using this calculator.
5. Understand your Social Security benefits. The average monthly Social Security benefit for retired workers is $1,237.*** Before you retire, visit socialsecurity.gov to find out what benefits you should plan for.
6. Contribute, if your company offers matching, 401(k), or profit sharing options. Every little bit you save helps in the long run.
7. Find out how Fixed Indexed Annuities can give you peace of mind. FIAs are a key component of a balanced financial plan that help you moderate risk and reward. With FIAs, your money has the ability to grow risk-free—your principal is protected and will never decline in value. Learn more at FIAinsights.org.
8. Balance your retirement plan by having several different income sources. Consider a mix of market-driven plans such as 401(k)s, mutual funds, or securities, along with safe, guaranteed plans like Social Security benefits and FIAs. It's all about balancing the risk and reward. Learn more about the different types of retirement plans.
9. Review your spending plan with your spouse or "money buddy" on a bi-monthly basis so you will be able to reach your financial goals and attain fiscal accountability.****
10. Find a consultant if you need help with the retirement financial planning process.
11. Don't touch your retirement savings. Many retirement plans have penalties for taking out money too soon.
For more retirement tips, check out these educational videos and go through this smart buyer checklist.

Google – Are We Running Out Of Domain Names?
Not according to Vint Cerf - Chief Internet Evangelist at Google – who was just on BBC Breakfast.
In a 5 minute piece on the future of the web "Bill 'n' Sian" managed to asked some silly questions (at their own admission) about whether there was life on other planets when Vint was talking about the interplanetary internet communication protocol he's working on!
Vint said our fridge should be able to talk to us by scanning the produce items in the chiller and surfing the internet while we're at work, producing an ideal recipe for when we get home famished!
Are we running out of domain names? Well no, but we are running out of internet addresses which will expire by 2011.
Luckily IPV6 has been introduced to take over from IPV4 and will provide trillions more addresses to use.
Would have liked some more insight from the great man but he was removed to make way for a piece on how to get your grandma to text more!
Come on BBC! Please give your geeky viewers a few more minutes of substance in the morning!

Storm drops heavy snow in southern Indiana
By Rick Callahan Associated Press December 26, 2012 9:50AM
Related Stories
Updated: December 26, 2012 2:22PM
INDIANAPOLIS — Up to a foot of wind-whipped snow blanketed parts of southern Indiana and rare blizzard conditions prompted travel warnings Wednesday after the region experienced its heaviest winter storm in years.
Indianapolis had 7 inches of snow on the ground by 10 a.m. and at one point received as much as 3 inches of snow in a single hour, said John Kwiatkowski, a National Weather Service meteorologist in the city. The snowstorm was particularly treacherous because of high winds of 25-30 mph with gusts of up to 40mph in the state capital.
"The way I've been describing it is as a low-end blizzard, but that's sort of like saying a small Tyrannosaurus rex. Just to become a blizzard is quite an accomplishment. And it's sure a heck of a lot more than we've seen," Kwiatkowski said.
A blizzard warning was in effect until Wednesday evening for much of Indiana's southern two-thirds, and more than a dozen counties issued watches advising against anything but essential travel.
Up to 12 inches of snow buried Knox and Greene counties in southwestern Indiana by late morning, Kwiatkowski said. Greene County officials closed all county roads except to emergency service and private health care workers.
"It's a nightmare for the sheriff," said Roger Axe, the county's emergency management director.
On the south side of Indianapolis, where most businesses and restaurants were closed because of the storm, a few motorists crept along streets filled with drifts and lumps of snow. Roadside ditches were littered with cars that had slid off or were involved in accidents.
"It's ugly out," said Elizabeth Brinker, 26, who was hurrying to reach her car in a downtown parking garage after the law firm where she works sent employees home early.
Six to 10 inches of snow was expected to fall Wednesday in central Indiana, with the heaviest amounts expected south and southeast of Indianapolis, weather service meteorologist Jason Puma said.
By late morning, Interstate 65 and Interstate 465 on Indianapolis' south side were covered in drifts so deep that motorists had to follow in each other's tire tracks.
State police Sgt. Curt Durnil said about 40 vehicles were stuck Wednesday morning on Indiana 37 near the Monroe-Morgan county line between Bloomington and Martinsville because they couldn't make it up a hill on the slick road. He said it was expected to take a couple hours for state highway crews to clear the south-central Indiana roadway.
Schools and many businesses were closed for Christmas break, and many state and local government offices told non-essential employees to stay home.
The snowfall, meanwhile, was welcomed at southern Indiana's ski slopes.
Lauren Grenier, whose husband is the general manager of Paoli Peaks about 90 miles south of Indianapolis, said a couple of inches of snow had fallen on the resort and that another half foot was forecast.
"There's a small blizzard going on down here right now. ... This is good news for us," she said.
Chip Perfect of Perfect North Slopes said the storm is also expected to dump a half-foot of snow on the Lawrenceburg-area resort in southeastern Indiana. Perfect said the storm, like all snowstorms, would keep some people away at first.
"The first day of a snowstorm it tends to reduce the crowd but it'll be on the ground and it will on the ground in people's minds for the rest of the week so each day we'll build and for us the timing's good," he said.
Charles Wilson and Tom Davies in Indianapolis contributed to this report.

Every Small Self-Administered Pension Scheme (SSAS) must have a pensioneer trustee. Today IRSPSS (the PSO, as was) published their official list of approved pensioneer trustees. Perhaps surprisingly, the majority apparently do not belong to the relevant professional body, the Association of Pensioneer Trustees.
The pensioneer trustee's job used to be officially limited to ensuring that the directors of the company didn't try to wind up the scheme illegally, in order to get their hands on the assets. Under new and more stringent requirements announced in PSO Update No. 69 (29 August 2000), the pensioneer trustee must now be a co-signatory of scheme bank accounts, transfer payments, refunds, lump sum benefit and other non-regular payments, and by 29 August 2001, additionally must be registered as a co-owner of scheme assets (except loans, insurance policies, annuity contracts and borrowings, where these were made before 1 October 2000).
IRSPSS closely monitor pensioneer trustees, whose duty it is to ensure that all the special rules governing SSASs are observed, and indeed report any deliberate breaches to IRSPSS. If such misbehaviour occurs, however, it is difficult for the pensioneer trustee to either quit or be removed by the other trustees, because a replacement must be lined up first (which is where the list will come in handy). The pensioneer trustee must also inform IRSPSS immediately of what has happened. The only exception to the immediate replacement rule is if the pensioneer trustee dies, loses IRSPSS authorisation, acts in a fraudulent manner, or is removed by court order. In these cases, a new pensioneer trustee must be appointed within 30 days.

Cheap Trick Drummer Bun E. Carlos Sues Bandmates For Thousands Of Dollars

I really want to plant some bushes along our wooded area, is it to late to plant blueberry bushes? Are they pretty hardy? Any other berry bushes that you would recommend? Thanks so much! |
Follow-Up Postings:
Blueberry bushes - as is true for any bushes - are best planted in the fall. Planting anything now would jeopardize their survival due to hot and dry weather. The cooler temps and more frequent rains of fall allow new plants to better establish themselves. Blueberries are plenty hardy ... in fact they are native to Georgia. Plants are most often available in stores in the spring for some reason. Below is a link to a very good UGA tip sheet on blueberries in Georgia. Based on where you live, you might choose different varieties. Another good berry bush is Elderberry - the scientific name is Sambucus. Also a native. If you are interested in berry bushes for birds (not for eating yourself), check into native viburnums, the native Beautyberry (Callicarpa americana), and Serviceberry (scientific name is Amelanchier, some people eat these berries too). |

Remember those beaded safety pin bracelets from camp? Yes, the elastic ones with the multi-colored seed beads. We never, ever, thought safety pin jewelry would make a comeback. However, ever since we spotted this sparkly, gold safety pin necklace, we've been obsessed. It's delicate and yet it adds an element of toughness to any outfit. So, we stand corrected. Office supplies can be fashionable. [$100, CC Skye]

One of the essential amino acids, present in many common proteins. Its proportion in the proteins of some important food plants (including wheat and corn) is so small that populations dependent on these grains as the sole source of dietary protein suffer from lysine deficiency, affecting growth in children and general well-being in adults. It is used in biochemical and nutritional research, in pharmaceuticals, in fortified foods, and as a nutritional supplement and feed additive.

First pics of the Grand-Am Rolex Series Audi R8 LMS
Audi of America recently took delivery of a U.S.-customer-spec R8 LMS Ultra meant for testing next month, and the gents at Quattroworld were able to get a picture of it. Being lighter, safer, and better balanced, the V10-powered racer with up to 570 horsepower is expected to outdo its multiple-title-winning predecessor.
It will be campaigned by APR racing in 2012. Although the stars-and-stripes outerwear doesn't look nearly as mean as just plain silver, the patriotic paint scheme could be good for shaving off a few tenths per lap when the winged coupe officially rolls out at the Grand-Am test days in January.
Head on over to Quattroworld for more details on this car and some tidbits on Audi's racing program, including the outrageous revelation offered by an Audi engineer when asked how often they had to overhaul the engines: "I don't know, we never have had to rebuild one."

text: Introduction First of all, I would like to thank you for inviting me back to York for this conference, for this is a particularly appropriate time for me to return. If I were still on the faculty at York, this would be the year of my compulsory retirement, so I look upon this as my Last Lecture or Swan Song. It is doubly appropriate for me to give this lecture here, for it was in this very room in 1971 when I was an Associate Professor of Humanities that I organized a conference entitled "Thinking on a Planetary Scale," to which I invited the global theorist Bucky Fuller, the ecological architect Paolo Soleri, and Richard Falk, Professor of International Law at the Woodrow Wilson School at Princeton. The conference was my effort to express to my colleagues that business as usual was not enough and that we were living through a radical juncture in history in which a new planetary culture was emerging, a culture that was distinct from the internationalism that had characterized the world-system since the end of World War II.1

What does big business want? Creating a compelling business case for integrated care
In an effort to contain health care costs while ensuring employees have access to high quality care, large employers are increasingly exploring and entering into novel contractual arrangements with integrated health systems. Many of these partnerships are facilitated by third-party payors. However, a growing number of businesses bypass health plans altogether – for example, the recently announced partnership between The Boeing Company and Providence Health and Services, Swedish Health Services, and University of Washington Medicine. As health systems integrate and become better prepared to enter into direct contracts with large employers, they are carefully observing these vanguard partnerships to see if they are a suitable approach to providing quality patient care, improving population health, bending the cost curve, while sustaining a thriving clinical practice.
A panel of three speakers who are leaders from integrated health systems and large employers will present their organizations' perspectives. This program aims to challenge participants to think in new ways and better prepare for new models of health care delivery payment. Breakout sessions will follow.
Engaging physicians in integrated care
Presented in collaboration with the American Medical Group Association
Fixing health care and moving toward integrated care will require a sea-change in the way many physicians practice and involves moving from a model organized around individual physicians to a system approach of team-based care. Such radical change can only succeed when embraced by physicians, yet many are resistant and anxious about the changes underway, fearing the loss of autonomy and status quo. Drs. Scott Flinn, CMO, Arch Health Partners (Calif.), and Rae Ann Williams, Regional Assistant Medical Director for Primary Care, Park Nicollet HealthPartners Care Group (Minn.), will discuss how physician leaders can articulate their vision of what lies on the other side of change and at the same time acknowledge and be forthright about the sacrifice involved in getting there. Learn how physician-led organizations have addressed this issue, mistakes they made and the successes they had in moving physicians toward a shared goal of achieving team-based, high quality, cost appropriate care for every patient. The program will be moderated by Mark Miller, Director of Survey Studies and Research at the American Medical Group Association.
Resolutions, which should be written and submitted on the IPPS resolution template, must be submitted to Carrie Waller (email@example.com) by Sept. 27. Resolutions submitted after this date are considered "late" and require a 2/3 vote of the IPPS Assembly in order to be considered.
Although all AMA members are invited to attend IPPS meetings, only certified IPPS representatives may fully participate (e.g., submit resolutions, make motions, vote).
To serve as an official representative for your organization, please complete the certification form. Contact Carrie Waller at email@example.com or (312)464-4546 with any questions.

Discussion on indigent defense today in Tucson
Posted: February 27, 2008 2:10 pm
Bad lawyering has contributed to several of the wrongful convictions overturned by DNA testing. Public defenders are often overburdened and underfunded, rendering them unable to provide the defense and investigation needed in a serious criminal trial. The Innocence Project has called for improvements in the nation's indigent defense systems to prevent future wrongful convictions, but few states have taken action. Stephen Bright, the director of the Southern Center for Human Rights, will address the issue of indigent defense this afternoon at a speech in Tucson, Arizona.
"There is a failure in jurisdictions all over the country to provide adequate lawyers to people accused of crimes," said Stephen B. Bright, director of the Southern Center for Human Rights. "It's particularly troubling in death penalty cases with lawyers who don't have the competence, the expertise, the resources or the investigative assistance needed to try death penalty cases," Bright said.Jimmy Ray Bromgard, who served more than 14 years in a Montana prison before DNA testing proved him innocent, is an example of a defendant who was wrongfully convicted partly because of inadequate defense representation. His attorney did no investigation, hired no expert to debunk the state's forensic expert, filed no motions to suppress the identification of a young girl who was, according to her testimony, at best only 65% certain, gave no opening statement, did not prepare a closing statement, and failed to file an appeal after Bromgard's conviction.

Winston-Salem Journal calls on other states to join North Carolina in preserving evidence
Posted: August 20, 2008 5:20 pm
A Winston-Salem Journal editorial calls on other states in the country to pass laws preserving DNA evidence as North Carolina has done. Currently only 25 states and the District of Columbia have such laws. The editorial points out that lost or destroyed DNA evidence in one state can hamper another state's efforts to get innocent people out of prison and apprehend the real criminals.
For example, say detectives in North Carolina who've re-opened a murder case in which someone has been convicted are looking for a match for DNA evidence found at the crime scene. The real killer's been in prison for an unrelated crime, but it's in a state that's lax on preserving such evidence. So his DNA isn't in the system. The killer stays free, and an innocent person stays in prison.
That's probably already happened numerous times. And it will probably happen a lot more. For example, in New York, a law that would have provided for DNA preservation died in the State Assembly in June, according to USA Today. Some states have shown a "shocking" disinterest in keeping DNA, said Larry Pozner, the former head of the National Association of Criminal Defense Lawyers. "Innocent inmates are going to die in prison," he said.The editorial does see some reason for hope in at least two states. Colorado and Arizona are both working towards legislation to preserve biological evidence.

Troy Davis set to be executed Tuesday despite evidence of innocence
Posted: September 22, 2008 3:32 pm
Nearly two decades ago, a Savannah, Georgia, police officer was killed in a fast food parking lot. Troy Davis was arrested for the crime, and nine non-police eyewitnesses testified that they saw him shoot the victim. Based almost exclusively on eyewitness testimony, Davis was convicted of the murder and sentenced to death.
His execution is set for 7 p.m. tomorrow, and despite mounting evidence of Davis' innocence, and pleas from around the world supporting a new trial to determine the real facts in his case, the execution is still set to go forward.
Here's what you can do to support a new trial for Davis:
Visit Amnesty International's website to send a letter to the Georgia Board of Pardon and Parole.
Call the Georgia Board of Pardons and Parole.
Read news and commentary on the case from Davis' sister, the Huffington Post, the Atlanta Journal-Constitution, National Public Radio, and hundreds of other news outlets.

Crime Labs Suffer Under Backlogs and Budget Crunches, Help on the Way
Posted: November 10, 2008 4:30 pm
Towns and cities in Arizona are refusing to pay the state for forensic tests that used to be done for free. After the Arizona state legislature cut the state crime lab's budget by half in July, lab officials announced that they would bill law enforcement departments for forensic tests, hoping to collect $2.5 million this fiscal year. But law enforcement officials say they can't afford the fees for testing.
Police in Douglas, a border town in southeastern Arizona, owe about $23,000 in lab fees. To pay the Department of Public Safety would mean Douglas police could not hire an officer or buy a squad car, Chief Alberto Melis said. The department has four vacancies.
Melis of Douglas said, "For me to come up with this money, I'm going to have to do without something. In a profession where 95 percent of your cost is personnel, I might not be able to hire somebody."Officers in Payson, Arizona, said they are sending less evidence for testing, which is slowing down investigations.
Detective Matt Van Camp said he uses every aspect of the crime lab, from firearm testing to its criminalists.Lab backlogs are hurting police investigations in Texas, as well. Results from state labs can take months.
"We used to send everything, but now we have to screen what we send out automatically," Van Camp said. "This limits the tools available for the prosecutor and police."
Prosecutors may now have to decide if they want to go to trial before they have the necessary evidence in hand.
"This makes the prosecutor's job harder," he said. "Crime labs also prove people innocent, not just guilty."

Williamson County District Attorney John Bradley explains that in today's 'CSI world' where jurors see scientific evidence easily gleaned from most crime scenes in TV dramas, they expect to see the same in court cases. But because there are so many requests for testing, and too few state technicians to keep up with demand, he says, "When you ask for DNA testing and results, you're buying in to a six month to one year delay in your case."

Federal assistance should help to defuse the crisis somewhat in Arizona and Texas. The two states, along with Washington, Kentucky and Virginia, recently received a combined $7.8 million in grants from the U.S. Department of Justice to help with DNA testing in serious felony cases. The DOJ's grant program requires states to comply with standards for storage and testing of evidence, and also to significantly reduce backlogs through improved training and technology.

Arizona State University to Host Forensic Science Conference
Posted: January 7, 2009 4:00 pm
Some of the world's leading scholars and experts in evidence, forensic science and criminalistics will gather to discuss the future of forensic science in the criminal justice system in April. The Center for the Study of Law, Science, & Technology at the Sandra Day O'Connor College of Law at Arizona State University announced this week that it is hosting "Forensic Science for the 21st Century: The National Academy of Sciences Report and Beyond" April 3 and 4.
Organizers said the conference is being held "in light of the highly anticipated report of the U.S. National Academy of Sciences on Identifying the Needs of the Forensic Sciences Community" that is expected to be released within the next couple of months. Harry T. Edwards, Chief Judge Emeritus of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit and Co-chair of the NAS Forensic Science Committee, is scheduled to deliver the Center's annual Willard H. Pedrick Lecture, titled "Strengthening Forensic Science in the United States: A Path Forward."
The event will also feature discussions about the NAS report, an unprecedented examination of forensic science nationwide that will outline findings and recommendations for how to ensure that the criminal justice system relies on sound science.
In addition to experts from major research institutions such as the University of California, Berkeley, Harvard Law School, the University of Michigan Law School, the University of California, Irvine, the University of Virginia and ASU, among others, participants will include state and federal judges, the co-chairmen of the National Academy of Sciences Forensic Science Committee, the president of the American Association of Forensic Sciences. The directors of the FBI Crime Laboratory and the Innocence Project, and prosecutors, defense attorneys, forensic scientists, and criminalists also will be involved.Visit the conference's website for more information, including registration and scheduled events.

Arizona Man Remains in Prison Despite Evidence of Innocence
Posted: June 15, 2010 2:15 pm
P. S. Ruckman Jr., a political science professor at Rock Valley College in Rockford, Ill., has been fuming about Ms. Brewer's handling of the Macumber case. "I have been following state clemency for 30 years, and this is easily, easily the most disturbing," he said. "It's borderline despicable."
"Common-sense notions of justice should compel a governor to provide an explanation for imprisoning a man deemed innocent by an official board created to make such judgments," he added. "You don't imprison a man for no reason."

Shaken-Baby Syndrome Convictions Challenged in Arizona
Posted: September 17, 2012 5:10 pm
Drayton Witt, freed this summer with the help of the Arizona Justice Project after 10 years in prison became the second Arizonian to have his conviction overturned in a shaken-baby syndrome case in just two years. In the state, and nationwide, such convictions have come under scrutiny in light of new challenges to the scientific basis of the syndrome. As in Witt's case, such convictions are based on the premise that shaking a baby can result in brain damage or death, even in the absence of other physical indications of abuse such as broken bones or bruising.
The Arizona Republic reports:
Witt knows he is No. 2, the second shaken-baby conviction in Arizona to be vacated. But he figures the pattern that police and prosecutors followed in his case was repeated many more times.
"The system is flawed," he said. "I'm sure there's a lot of people like that."
Witt was imprisoned in 2002 for murdering his girlfriend's son, Steven Witt. The five month old had recurring health problems and had been hospitalized on several occasions prior to his death. Witt always insisted that he had not harmed the baby. The medical examiner who originally conducted the examination now asserts that the baby's death can be attributed to disease, not abuse.
Witt has found another unlikely ally in Guthkelch, the pediatric neurosurgeon who developed the theory of shaken-baby syndrome in 1971.
"The death of Steven Witt is the type of case where a diagnosis of Shaken Baby Syndrome should not have been made," Guthkelch wrote. He said there were too many other possibilities that could explain the baby's death, and that while his process offers a possible explanation for some head injuries, any presumption that an injured child was shaken was a "distortion" of his theory.
Though Witt's conviction has been overturned, he has not been exonerated. Prosecutors will seek to retry the case in 2013.

Ansar al Sharia Egypt founder 'honored to be an extension of al Qaeda'
In an interview with the Cairo-based publication Al Shuruq al Jadid in late October, Ahmed Ashush, the founder of Ansar al Sharia Egypt, praised al Qaeda and defended the terrorist organization against criticisms. Ashush also named Mohammed al Zawahiri, the younger brother of al Qaeda emir Ayman al Zawahiri, as one of the jihadist leaders who remained true to his ideology during his time in prison.
The interviewer asked, "Does Egyptian Salafi-jihadism represent an extension of the al Qaeda organization?"
Ashush first offered to "correct the view of the al Qaeda organization," according to a translation obtained by The Long War Journal. Ashush proceeded to call al Qaeda the "House of Honor," the "Title of Glory," and the "Home of the Nation's Dignity."
"We must perpetuate [Osama] bin Laden whether alive or dead," Ashush continued. "If the revolutions of the Arab Spring were fair they would have adopted bin Laden as the symbol of heroism and sacrifice."
Ashush declared, "We are honored to be an extension of the al Qaeda organization in its beliefs, principles, and concepts."
The senior Egyptian jihadist went on to describe al Qaeda itself as an "extension" of the Egyptian Islamic Jihad (EIJ), which has long been headed by Ayman al Zawahiri and merged with Osama bin Laden's terrorist group prior to the Sept. 11, 2001 terrorist attacks. Ashush named two EIJ leaders, Abu Ubaidah al Banshiri and Abu Hafs al Masri, as co-founders of al Qaeda. Both served as al Qaeda military chiefs prior to their demise.
Ashush's embrace of al Qaeda is consistent with his past rhetoric and behavior. Since his release from an Egyptian prison, Ashush has repeatedly praised al Qaeda.
And Ayman al Zawahiri is so fond of Ashush that clips of the Ansar al Sharia Egypt leader are frequently included in al Qaeda's videos. A Sept. 10 video starring Ayman al Zawahiri featured a clip of Ashush praising Osama bin Laden. A two-part al Qaeda video released on Oct. 24 included nine video clips showing Ashush and other Egyptian jihadists.
During his interview with Al Shuruq al Jadid, Ashush did not shy away from al Qaeda's terrorism.
Al Qaeda is "fighting a criminal enemy," Ashush claimed, and only the terrorist group has prevented Muslim countries from being divided "into mini-States" ruled by "the Jews and the Christians." The US has authored this anti-Muslim conspiracy, according to Ashush. "Al Qaeda is the one that stopped the American scheme aimed at splitting Egypt into four States and dividing all Islamic countries."
Ahush's organization, Ansar al Sharia Egypt, is dedicated to implementing sharia law and rebuilding the Islamic Caliphate. As he made clear during his interview, Ashush is also deeply hostile to the West.
"We are at war with the United States and Israel and all the Worldly Rulers whom they appointed in the countries of the Muslims to carry out their imperialist blueprint in our countries," Ashush said.
Ashush has used the name "Salafi Vanguard" to describe his efforts and those of his compatriots. Ashush described the group as part of the jihadist "current," explaining that they chose this name to prevent any jihadist who has renounced his ideology from speaking for them.
"Those who speak in the name of the current are those who remained firm and did not change inside prison," Ashush said. "Sheikh Mohammed al Zawahiri is among them."
Mohammed al Zawahiri helped incite protesters in Cairo on Sept. 11, 2012. Several days later, on Sept. 16, Ashush released a fatwa calling for the makers of the film "Innocence of Muslims" to be killed. The younger Zawahiri and Ashush have appeared in jihadist propaganda videos together. Al Qaeda has also used clips of the two in its official videos, including the aforementioned Sept. 10 and Oct. 24 videos.
Al Shuruq al Jadid asked Ashush about al Qaeda's slaying of civilians. He was quick to dismiss the charge. "The term civilian comes within the framework of psychological warfare," Ashush claimed, elaborating that it was part of "American psychological warfare against Islam and the Muslims."
"It (civilians) is a corrupt term and Islam does not recognize it," Ashush continued, arguing that armies draw their reinforcements from the ranks of civilians who are capable of fighting. With respect to females, Ashush said that only the women who are fighting for an army should be killed. "We also do not deliberately kill children though this happens sometimes and they are killed because of the location in which they happen to be," Ashush said. "We kill only the combatants."
It should be noted that Ashush answered a question about al Qaeda's killing of civilians using the word "we" to begin parts of his answer.
Ashush called Egyptian president Mohamed Morsi "illegitimate" for his failure to fully and immediately implement sharia law. But Ashush refrained from calling for jihad inside Egypt for now.
"Concerning Egypt, our battle is the Battle of the Koran, as the sheikh of the mujhaidin Dr Ayman al Zawahiri has said," Ashush explained. "We believe that Egypt needs explanation, guidance, and communication of the message so that a distinction should be drawn between right and wrong, so that those who survive do so after the message is explained to them and the same goes for those who perish."

The Christians and the Jews. The Christians and the Jews. Ashush and the AaE need a new soundtrack.
This guy can talk all he wants. What I want to know is, will he also be proud to be on the receiving end of a Hellfire missle?
Posted by george at November 28, 2012 11:40 AM ET:
Witchdoctor you forgot "Zionists". Notice this guy stated "there are no civilians". Hense the monikor....TERRORIST. He and his followers only want to kill, and terrorise anyone who does not follow their way. The sooner they are removed from the planet the better. Just murderers is all they are.

no surprise here, another "kookoo for coco puffs" has surfaced from the ranks of the Islamic Internationale seeking publicity
Posted by George at November 28, 2012 7:59 PM ET:
According to him the use of the term "civilians" is a form of psychological warfare by America. Wow......that statement alone should be repeated in every court hearing at Guantanamo and on every news station across the world. Folks this is what we're fighting. Thats how far apart we are from them.

TUCSON-Hurricane Miriam is making its way up off the Mexican Coast just as a strong earthquake hits the Baja California area earlier today.
It was a 6.2 quake about 45 miles from La Paz in the Gulf of California. We have no official reports of damage or injuries at this point. The quake hit about 4:45 today and two aftershocks have been reported, both higher than 4.5.
We'll be keeping an eye on Miriam...it may bring us some moisture by Friday. I'll have an update on the computer models and my forecast at 10pm

Recent Amagansett Reviews
Charming Home Just a Quick Walk to the Beach
The house is open and airy; close to the beach, as well as to the quaint towns of the Hamptons and Montauk.
We enjoyed a restful stay, taking long walks on the beautiful beaches and in the lovely towns. Golf is great.
A perfect place for a family or adult vacation.
Wonderful house in Amagansett
This is wonderful house for anyone who wants a beach vacation in the Hamptons where they can truly relax, enjoy the beauty and slow pace of Amagansett, and if they can pull themselves away from the house or the beach, have plenty of activities nearby that don't require sitting in traffic on a sunny day. A beautiful space, with cushy couches, a large dining room table for eating (and playing board games). It's very well maintained. There is a picture perfect view of the bay, so perfect we saw people get out of their cars to take pictures on the road behind the house over and over again while we barbequed and watched the sunsets each evening on the back porch..The beach is beautiful and only a short walk away, near a State Park where you can also walk through the sand dunes. Boogie board, umbrella and chairs were at the house for our use at the beach. The nearby Aquaculture fish farm is a great place to buy scallops, lobster, and mouthwatering tartines, Lunch Restaurant is a short walk down the road for lobster rolls, La Fontina for mexican, Chutney Company for breakfast or lunch, Montauk, the town of Amagansett and East Hampton are all a short car ride away for eating and shopping. Recommend renting (Amagansett Bike and Beach) or bringing bikes for early mornings on the road near the bay or to the dunes... you will be among a number of cyclists and friendly joggers. The house was clean, the beds extremely comfortable, and there are 3 bathrooms and an outdoor shower which is convenient when there is a group coming back from the beach. The kitchen has everything you need to cook, make coffee, and there is a grill outside.
No one wanted to go home...would love to come back next year....

Venture capitalist Gary Lauder paid just $4.8 million (£3m) for OnLive's assets after the company went into insolvency over the summer.
That's according to a letter obtained by MercuryNews, written by Joel Weinberg, CEO of Insolvency Services Group, which was handling OnLive's sale.
The cloud gaming firm had at least $18.7 million ($11.7m) in outstanding debts when it went into insolvency in mid-August, and the letter indicates that OnLive's creditors will end up getting no more than around a quarter of the money they were owed.
When it ran into trouble OnLive opted to initiate bankruptcy alternative measures which effectively closed the former company and established a new one under the same name.
Last week OnLive UK director Bruce Grove said the firm had a clear recovery strategy for the coming year.
"We have a road map for how soon we start with certain things, what the focus is, what we're going to be doing, what the next twelve months will be," he said. "And that's a big shift for the company: Having a 12-month plan. That's something that's going to show how we'll build this into a long-term sustainable business.
"In the past we've been very focused on OnLive being the driving force of wherever we've gone. Now, it's much more about engagement with our partners. That's going to be the way we reach the new customer market."
