Triple explosions in Thailand's restive South have killed two civilians and injured a dozen of security officers, including bomb disposal specialists. The Explosive Ordnance Disposal units rushed to the scene near an irrigation canal in remote Tak Bai district after the first explosion, which killed two irrigation workers and injured other five people. As the bomb squads were checking the incident, another explosion occurred one kilometre away from the first explosion scene, wounding a military officer. Investigators said the improvised bomb was detonated by a mobile phone. The explosive specialists also found the third bomb three meters away from the second one, but failed to defuse it in time. The blast instantly injured six officers. Thanks to RussiaToday for footage.

Equally likely Buddhists or Muslims.
Recently more muslims have been blown up by buddhists than vice-versa.

@DEADBEEF fuck i thought you were being facetious but since you werent i'll just point out that i thought the southern provinces of thailand are restive because of the muslim separatists who've been waging a violent campaign for some time now but i dont keep up really so maybe you know about the topic more than myself. But buddhism is not practiced on a regular basis in vietnam, it shaped their culture but only a very tiny minority actually adheres to the practice of buddhism today. People we fo More..ught in vietnam were mostly communists which is a pretty much godless ideology for those who follow it Less..

@The Grim
I've relatively recently travelled through Southern Thailand with my young teenager kids.
We went all through the 'restive' zone no probs. We eventually ended up staying on a Muslim island in the Andaman Sea - perfect peace. Later we went north and eventually got to Bangkok. There we finally felt scared.
The situation in Southern Thailand is not black and white. It's much more than a Muslim v Buddhist fight. Mix in gangsters and corruption and look a little towards Mexico.

© Copyright 2015 Clayton News Daily
By Capt. Herb EmoryHelmets off to Ryan Newman for having the guts to be the latest driver calling for NASCAR to establish a emergency response team to travel the Winston Cup circuit with teams each week. Newman, driver of the No. 12 Dodge, expressed his concerns after a crash during practice at Watkins Glen. He's not the first to call for the safety improvement. It's been a topic of conversation since Dale Earnhardt's fatal crash in 2001. The Indy Racing League started the practice of adding emergency personnel to their racing caravan several years ago. The same rescue team travels with drivers and crews to the tracks where the series races. It's not unlike the local rescue squad in your neighborhood. If you live in Rockdale County you would feel more comfortable with Rockdale County firefighters responding to your situation, rather than the fire department from Stockbridge. That's not to say that Henry County emergency workers are not as efficient as their Rockdale counterparts, but I would be more at ease during my emergency if it were workers that lived in and were familiar with my home county. Atlanta Motor Speedway has always had an excellent response team at their events, but some of the tracks on the schedule lack the expert resources available in our area. Those are the speedways where a traveling emergency team would mean major enhancements to the driver safety efforts. If money is the drawback to beginning the practice, maybe NASCAR could start out small. Have two rescue trucks and teams at each track to work with the local emergency workers. They could have the trucks stationed on opposite sides of the track and they could respond with the local track teams when an incident occurs. NASCAR rescue teams working together with the local fire and safety squads could very quickly calm some of the concerns of the drivers that compete in this sometimes deadly game. It might even save a life someday. Motor City: The NASCAR teams are on their way to Michigan International Speedway this weekend. It will be round two for the season at the Motor City racing arena. Bill Elliott has the best record at Michigan among the active drivers. He's had seven trips to Victory Lane since 1984 and has scored top-10 finishes in 29 of the 48 races he has run there. Rusty Wallace has a good report card from the track that his team owner, Roger Penske, owns. Wallace has five Michigan wins. His first win at the track was in 1988. Mark Martin and Dale Jarrett have scored four Michigan wins each. Martin's wins came in 1998, 1997, 1993 and 1990. Jarrett won events there in 2002, 1999, 1996 and 1991. Bobby Labonte has a trio of Michigan victories listed on his resume. He won both races at the track in 1995 and another in 1999. Jeff Gordon has two wins there. The No. 24's victories came in 2001 and in 1998. The one-time winners at Michigan include Kurt Busch (2003), Matt Kenseth (2002), Sterling Marlin (2001) and Tony Stewart (2000). The top-five finishers of the June race at Michigan were Kurt Busch, Bobby Labonte, Jeff Gordon, Matt Kenseth and Michael Waltrip. Nine drivers traded the lead 22 times and there were nine caution flag incidents. Awesome Bill Update: Bill Elliott made it through the last road course race of the year with his equipment still in one piece and managed to leave Watkins Glen with 20th-place pay. He advanced from 17th to 16th on the Winston Cup point chart. Bill Elliott has been running the Michigan track since 1976 and has claimed seven wins, seven poles, 17 top-five and 29 top-10 finishes there. He has led laps in 29 of the 51 races he has run at the track. His last win there was in 1989. He started 16th and finished 24th in the June Michigan event. Jawga Boys: Fayette County resident Mark Wallace has reason to brag. Wallace, co-owner of the No. 77 Winston Cup team, claimed the Masters Division championship in the Atlanta Motor Speedway Thursday Thunder Series. Wallace won four of the 10 races held in the summer series. Wallace had more reasons to feel good on Saturday when his driver in the ARCA/ReMax Series registered a fourth-place run at Nashville Superspeedway. Doug Stevens, of Lovejoy, had started the Jasper Engines and Transmissions car from the ninth position. Winder's Mark Gibson had a decent run in the ARCA race too. Gibson started 19th and finished eighth in the 151-lap run at Nashville. Gibson is ranked third in the ARCA points as the series heads to the one-mile dirt track at Illinois State Fairgrounds for their next contest Sunday. A dirt track race would be exciting to watch, but the only way you'll be able to see the action is to buy a ticket and be in the grandstands. The Illinois race is one of the ARCA races that the Speed Channel has decided not to televise. Bill Lester drove his Craftsman Truck Series machine up front at Nashville, but his pit strategy didn't work out the way he had hoped. The Cobb County driver left the Music City track with 16th-place pay. Lester holds down 13th-place in the truck point standings. Ricky Sanders finished 27th in the truck run at Nashville. The Henry County driver is ranked 29th in points after running a half-dozen of the 15 series events this season. The trucks won't run again until a special Wednesday night race at Bristol on August 20th. Herb Emory, a traffic reporter and host of the Allan Vigil 120 racing show on WSB-AM 750, is a guest columnist for The Daily. His racing column appears in the weekend edition.

Local communities applying for FEMA public assistance
By Alex Rusciano
"The three things that we think are debris removal, cutting down of trees that have been affected and then roadways. The reason why maybe they were not considered eligible is the interpretation that FEMA gives it and the interpretation that we're actually looking at which is real eligible costs based on further study of the documentation and of the guidelines," Cook says.
Cook says the local declarations will help communities meet a federal guideline of nearly $18 million in damage recovery expenses to qualify for assistance. She says the local measures allow communities like Washington to expand the nature of the recovery expenses in their total costs.

Paramedic Erin Frisby, 30, of Summerville, grew up in upstate New York, Greenville and Utah. She came to the Lowcountry for family and graduated from Trident Tech with a degree in Applied Science. She is currently working on her nursing degree through a bridge program with Excelsior College.
I first became a Certified Medical Assistant, she says, but wanted more involvement in patient care and to be outdoors. She didnt like being behind a desk all day.
Being a paramedic puts her out in the community. She has some special ops training and is a member of the newly established Bike Team.
The bike team, she explains, attends festivals and health and safety fairs.
Her worst experiences all group together I try not to think too much about the bad stuff, she says.
Her worst, though, are cardiac arrests and Category 1 and 2 patients [most severe categories].
Her best experiences are the people you make a difference for.
Her professional goal is to become a nurse but I would still do part-time paramedic I love being a paramedic.
When she isnt riding a rig and rushing off on a call, she lives with her brother Ryan, three dogs Tucker, 14, and Rush, 3, both German Short-Haired Pointers, and August, 7, a Pit Bull/Lab mix.
She loves taking the dogs to the dog park, hiking, canoeing, boating and the beach.
She enjoys spending time with friends, going shopping, to the movies and dining out.
Her life goal, she says, is to get married and have children.
Her dad is an attorney in Greenville as well as an author and writer. She and her brother were adopted when she was 8 years old but she still has a relationship with her birth mother. I love her, she did the best thing she could for me.
But, she says, My Dad [adopted] is my hero.

It's not so surprising that Jim Hoberman and I both chose to reference Jean Baudrillard in our reviews of Full Battle Rattle this week. (Here's his. Here's mine.) The movie really opens itself up to that reading -- but not necessarily in a good way. Don't get me wrong: This bizarrely fascinating documentary about American soldiers training in a fake Iraq (complete with fake Iraqi citizens and fake military funerals) illuminates a lot about the growth of the military mindset in our country and the role of xenophobia in the current overseas incursion. I highly recommend it for anyone remotely interested in the topic. I just wish it took us out of the bubble and explained itself a bit more. That is, I wish it took us to the REAL Iraq. More details in my review.

The 61-year-old added another entry to his lengthy and impressive curriculum vitae on Friday night when he began his reign as manager of the Republic of Ireland with a 3-0 friendly victory over Latvia in Dublin.
O'Neill had been out of the game since March when he was sacked by Sunderland, the club he supported as a boy, and the war of words in which he has become embroiled with successor Paolo Di Canio in recent days is an illustration of how deeply that cut.
However, his determination to succeed has never waned and even the disappointment of his time on Wearside cannot dim his enthusiasm.
O'Neill said: "That hunger is there from - it was there from starting out as a player, as an 18-year-old.
"I haven't felt any sort of changes. Of course there are ups and downs and everybody has experienced those things, but overall it feels the same."
Asked if he is still driven on by the same things which brought him into football in the first place, he added: "Very much so, and this is it: it's just raw enthusiasm for the game.
"Those things never change, really. The minute that they do change, that's when you want to re-assess things."
In the short-term, O'Neill will continue a whirlwind start to the latest phase of his career when he and his players fly out to Poland on Sunday ahead of Tuesday night's friendly in Poznan.
They will do so on a high having turned in one of their most convincing performances for some time against a Latvia side which did little to upset the script on a night when the smiles came back to the faces of Irish football fans.
O'Neill knows few of their future opponents will prove quite as submissive as Marian Pahars' men on a night when goals from Robbie Keane - the 62nd of his senior international career - Aiden McGeady and substitute Shane Long secured a comfortable win.
However, the manner in which Ireland played, with wingers Aiden McGeady and James McClean terrorising their markers and James McCarthy and Wes Hoolahan pulling the strings behind Keane, drew a line under the safety-first approach of Giovanni Trapattoni.
The Republic may not always be able to take the same aggressive stance against more dangerous opponents, but the knowledge that the ability to do so remains in the armoury is a comfort.
O'Neill said: "We can't get carried away with ourselves. Lots of things could happen.
"When the big games come in, it's a matter of having your best players available, and that might not always be the case.
"I felt the performance was excellent. I mentioned last night, there will be sterner tests than Latvia, but it was good.
"It was good to play, it was good for players to get a bit of confidence about themselves. I think they felt that with the crowd behind them as well, it was positive for a first game.
"You mentioned how important to win the game - of course, the winning of the match is vitally important."
Poland, who pushed England all the way before losing 2-0 at Wembley in their final World Cup qualifier last month, will provide very different opposition in a city where Ireland lost to Croatia and Italy during their ill-fated Euro 2012 finals campaign.
O'Neill will make changes - David Forde will definitely start in goal after Keiren Westwood got the nod against the Latvians - as he attempts to see as many of his players in action as possible.
But whichever 11 men pull on the shirts ahead of kick-off, the manager has warned them they will find the going significantly tougher.
He said: "Well, regardless of the performance and the result last night, I think anyone who saw them against England would say they are a very decent side, so I think we will have our work cut out."
O'Neill's selection could be determined in part by a series of injury concerns with West Ham defender Joey O'Brien due to undergo a scan on a hamstring problem, while Andy Reid and Sean St Ledger are also understood to be doubts.

By Karen ParrishAmerican Forces Press Service
WASHINGTON, Sept. 24, 2011 Brooke Toner was 28 years old the day she heard the knock on her door.
That knock brought the news every military spouse dreads: for Brooke, it meant her husband of less than three years was never coming home.
"It was the worst day of my life," she told the capacity crowd gathered at the Navy Memorial here yesterday for the award ceremony honoring her husband, Navy Lt. j.g. Francis L. Toner IV.
Toner died in Afghanistan while defending fellow service members from an enemy who had infiltrated the Afghan National Army. The Americans were unarmed and on a physical training run when the gunman started shooting. Toner accosted the man and bought time for another service member to seek help.
After Brooke accepted her husband's posthumous Silver Star from Navy Adm. Mike Mullen, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, she told American Forces Press Service how she felt about the event, and how her life has changed since that knock on the door in 2009.
Surrounded by hundreds of friends, family, and 'Frankie' Toner's fellow sailors, she said, "I'm just so proud of my husband. It's as simple as that. I'm just proud that he's a man who lived the way he did, who loved me the way that he did, just who he was as a person."
Toner was a great friend, brother, support system to others and a Navy officer, she said.
"He was just so incredible," she added.
Their first date was six years to the day before he was killed March 27, 2009, she said.
"I knew him for seven months before that; we started dating in 2003, and we were married in 2006," she said. "We were married for two years, seven months, eight days."
Brooke said she is now involved in the American Widow Project, which a fellow military widow, Taryn Davis, founded after her own husband was killed.
On the group's website under "our mission," visitors will find this:
"Since 2001, nearly 6,000 U.S. service members have been killed in Iraq and Afghanistan. Around half of these service members were married, leaving an estimated 3,000 military widows across our country. While the service member's sacrifice is acknowledged, many simply forget or fail to recognize the sacrifice of the spouse who is now left a widow of war. Oftentimes the invisible wounds of military widows are disregarded due to age or a simple lack of knowledge and understanding.
"The American Widow Project is a non-profit organization dedicated to the new generation of those who have lost the heroes of yesterday, today and tomorrow, with an emphasis on healing through sharing stories, tears and laughter … military widow to military widow."
Brooke said the organization "means a lot to me, because I know how alone I felt. Just being able to meet with other women who understand the love that I have for my husband, and understanding that it's forever."
The group is "full of love, full of life, full of laughter, surprisingly," she said. "For me to be able to let another widow know that they're not alone, through the organization – I couldn't ask for a better gift, because I know how I felt."
In the two and a half years since her husband died, Brooke said, she has moved back to Idaho, where her "entire family" lives.
"After not living there for 12 years, I decided it would be a good support system at home, which is wonderful," she said.
She also got a dog, which she named Kailua after the place she lived with her husband in Hawaii.
"I call him Kai. We picked out the name – we wanted to name our pets after places where we had lived," she added.
Brooke said she travels to retreats "with the widows" and helps Davis with the group in any capacity she can.
"I'm just keeping busy. Each day I wake up and say, 'I'm going to have a good day today.' Because it's not always easy," she said. "So I make myself smile, and I find a way to really live and love life, the way me and Frankie lived and loved life."

MILWAUKEE — A program that encourages Milwaukee students to keep up with their summer reading in order to retain what they've learned during the year continues. The Super Reader Program works to get kids excited about reading and learning through books.
"We're trying to make sure that kids are reading this summer. We want to make sure that when kids go home, they have a house that 's literacy-enriched," Darrell Finch with the Milwaukee Housing Authority said.
"The reason it's 'Super Reader' is because we want kids to be really excited about reading over the summer, and we want them to attack it, like a Super Reader!" Kelly Hughbanks, the coordinator of youth services with the Milwaukee Public Library said.
The Milwaukee Public Library partnered with the Housing Authority of Milwaukee to challenge all Milwaukee neighborhoods to become "Super Reader neighborhoods."
Officials say kids who don't read over the summer can experience "brain drain," losing reading skills they developed during the school year.
"Part of the 'Super Reader Program' is an evil 'Dr. Brain Drain' that they have to read, to defeat," Hughbanks said.
Officials encourage kids to read for at least 15 minutes every day, and kids can read whatever they choose. Kids are asked to read for at least 24 hours by summer's end, and incentives are provided along the way.
Reading earns "Super Readers" up to age 12 a "Super Reader" sign, and a chance to be better-prepared for the start of school in the fall!
Officials hope to have 20,000 "Super Readers" registered at Milwaukee Public Library by summer's end.

Sept. 24, 2005
CARY, N.C. -- Despite running in rather dusty conditions, both the University of Georgia men's and women's cross country teams recorded top-six finishes in the Nike Race of Champions at the Great American Cross Country festival in Cary, N.C.
The No. 21 women's team finished in fourth place with a score of 119. Winning the race with a score of 20 was No. 2 Duke followed by No. 6 Brigham Young (68 points) and No. 29 Virginia (110 points).
The Georgia women were led by junior Kristin Heffelfinger, who finished the 5K race in 12th place with a time of 17:32. Other top-50 finishers for Georgia included senior Lauren Burks (19th, 17:50), junior Jill Steffens (21st, 17:54), sophomore Nicole DeMarco (41st, 18:30), and sophomore Sarah Madebach (49th, 18:45).
"Overall I was very pleased with how our women's team ran today," said UGA cross country coach Dave Hartman. "We had to hold three of our top six runners out for various reasons so under the circumstances I think the team responded very well."

AMARILLO, Texas - Officials continue investigating the cause of a gas pipeline explosion in the rural Texas Panhandle.
The Amarillo Globe-News reports there were no injuries but one landowner told authorities an outbuilding and some of his farm equipment was burned.
The explosion, which happened shortly after 1 a.m. CST Wednesday, sent flames shooting hundreds of feet into the air. The blast happened east of Pampa, which is about 60 miles northeast of Amarillo.
Authorities said a portion of a highway near the explosion was shut down for nearly two hours as firefighters battled the blaze.
The Natural Gas Pipeline Company of America, which owns the pipeline, says the conduit was shut down shortly after the explosion.

The best day of our basement renovation was when Ikea delivered all of the components for the built-ins and the kitchen. It all fit in the newly opened up front room so the installation team could work in the other half of the space comfortably. You've got to love the flat pack!
They were meticulous about making sure everything was perfectly aligned, and in a house that's over 150 years old, this can be tough.
We opted for wood cabinet interiors. I like seeing a wood finish when you open a cupboard door, it just feels more polished.
The outside of the cabinets is a white painted finish. We designed the upper cabinets to tuck in neatly under the newly moved heating vents and included a surrounding fridge that sits just a bit proud from the cabinets — a simple detail that added a custom feel to the kitchen. It's actually great to have a second kitchen downstairs for caterers when we host parties and for storing extra bottles of wine.
Here Ikea's Staron counter is being installed. Amazingly, they brought most of the counters — which were each about 12 feet long — down in single pieces and they went in perfectly! In fact, I had no idea that they had been there that morning — that is how quietly they went in and out.
There were a few seams to blend but they were so meticulous that you can't see a single line.
We tried out a few faucets before committing to the Hovskär by Ikea. The black finish is sharp and modern, and ties in with the other black accents that will be included in the decor.
Here are the work stations with the Staron counters and custom powder-coated metal legs just after they were installed. They effectively hide the basement foundation walls out of sight.

News Releases by Email
News Release
Tuesday, January 29, 2013
Media contact: Amanda Nalley, 850-410-4943
Several species of grouper, including black, red, yellowfin, scamp, yellowmouth, rock hind and red hind will close to recreational harvest from Feb. 1 through March 31 in Gulf of Mexico state and federal waters, excluding state waters of Monroe County.
Gag grouper has a separate season from other Gulf of Mexico grouper and is currently closed to harvest. A proposed 2013 gag grouper season in state waters will be discussed at the February Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC) meeting in Orlando.
The upcoming two-month recreational harvest closure that starts Feb. 1 was put in place to help rebuild the gag grouper fishery. Gag grouper spawn during the February and March closure, so limiting the harvest of other grouper helps reduce the number of gag grouper that are caught unintentionally and die after being released.
More information regarding grouper fishing regulations, including the current grouper closure in Atlantic and Monroe County waters, is available online at MyFWC.com/Fishing. Visit MyFWC.com/Commission to learn more about the February Commission meeting.
FWC Facts:Scientists can determine the age of a fish by counting growth rings, similar to growth rings of a tree, on otoliths, the "inner ear bones" of fish.

Indian Trail adopts scaled back leash law
The Indian Trail Town Council approved a leash law at its Tuesday meeting.
Last month, the council scrapped a draft animal control ordinance written by the town's public safety committee. Council members stated they believed the ordinance, which restricted ownership of certain animals and their number, imposed too much government control on residents' animals.
A second ordinance was drafted by Town Attorney Keith Merritt that built upon Union County's animal control ordinance requiring pets be vaccinated, feces disposed of correctly, aggressive dogs contained, animal impoundments and other general responsibilities of the animal's owner.
The town's ordinance makes it unlawful to let dogs run at large without restraint within the town limits. It requires all dogs allowed outside the owner's home be fitted with identification, in the form of rabies tags, registration tags or tags bearing the name and address of the dog's owner.
Owners are also required to prevent animal nuisance. Cats and dogs are prohibited from damaging other people's property or defecating on property belonging to anyone other than their owners. Unsanitary living conditions, aggressive roaming dogs, barking or howling animals, keeping a dense concentration of animals in insufficient space, not treating diseased animals and allowing female animals in heat to roam are all considered public nuisance.
Punishment for violating the ordinance is $25 for the first offense, $50 for the second offense and $100 for additional offense.
Gone is the previous draft's creation of an animal license requirement. Instead, owners would be responsible for keeping current identification tags on pets, Town Manager Joe Fivas said.
Ordinance enforcement falls to the Union County Sheriff's Office to perform, Fivas said.
"They don't necessarily have an obligation to enforce it the way that it is written," Fivas said. "We have had some conversations with the sheriff...and I think they're certainly willing to work with us on it.
Fivas said the town provided an ordinance draft to the sheriff's office. The town has not received feedback from the UCSO, but Fivas said deputies should be willing to include animal enforcement into their normal duties.

So childish to give cops, who serve us the best they can, the finger. However, this IS America and you should have the right to express yourself, even with an obscene gesture.
Just know that you are risking a punch in the nose from touchy people.
I thought the cops overreacted a bit though. Arresting someone uses up taxpayers' money for the arrest, use of facilities, court time, etc. Not always necessary.
Back in the '60s, I saw the cops take A LOT of abuse before they lashed out. Of course, there were terrible incidents like Kent State and some of the major protests. Sad but true. We ALL need to settle down and RELAX!
Wow, sounds like a great day of tasting! Unfortunately, I am greatly affected by very hot (spicy) dishes. Can these dishes be ordered with less heat? Just wondering. Nice job, guys!
You can call me a scrooge if you want, but forcing a frightened child onto Santa's lap is a cruel thing to do. I know, I was traumatized as a child because my parents laughed at me when Santa scared the bejabbers out of me. I don't find pictures of terrified children funny at all. Sorry to burst your Santa balloon. To me, this is NOT cute at all. Look at that poor child. Who knows what nightmares he's having? Thank God I got over my fear, but some never do.
If a person is an irresponsible drinker, they will hit the roads drunk whether there is an open bar or not. They will drink in their homes, their cars, and have no compunctions about driving when drunk. Your best bet is to drive VERY defensively and keep your eye out for unusually fast or slow drivers, veering, hesitation or uncertainty and all the things cops look for when apprehending DUIs. Be safe out there, but don't blame the bars for the problem.
That's probably true, Pecanbrn. If he is not neutered, he needs to be, and he should also be kept inside. NOBODY should let cats loose anywhere. Too many dangers out there -- antifreeze (they love the taste), predators, cars, dogs, and worst of all, people who just don't like cats!
I think you're missing my point, Trivets. I'm saying that if so many people thought so highly of him, why should people get on here and dwell on the negative?
People I have spoken to have said he was devoted to his son. If he WAS hard on his son at times, it may have been because as a cop, he saw the horrible things that happen to teens.
Of course, if I had a son, I'd rather him be at my funeral than a thousand friends, but I don't have kids. If this kid DID "snap," I hope he gets help, because this can't be an easy burden to bear.
I just don't like it when people say negative things about the dead, who are unable to defend themselves.
this much beloved man had 1,000 people at his funeral, and there would have been more if there had been room.
To those of you who are so sour and negative and willing to judge without the full story, I can only say, "How many people will attend YOUR funeral?" Is it jealousy that makes you trash this man? Just wondering, not accusing.
I just don't understand why people see the negative all the time and can't wait to spread gossip and viciousness.
Holy cow! If you think 70 is "elderly," you must be just a kid. Some of the 70-year-olds I know are vital and YOUNG. 70 is no longer old, and many older people are very safe drivers.
Should teenagers be banned from driving because of their accident rate? Maybe they're too YOUNG to drive. When their cars "lurch" out of control, drugs or alcohol is usually to blame. Should we ban ALL of them from driving?
Besides, the Older man (92) who was killed was WALKING! Not driving! Try polishing your reading skills.
What a sad story. I feel so sorry for his family. Wonder what motivated him. Well, at least he didn't kill 8 people before killing himself. That's the only good part of this story. You often have to wonder what drives a person over the edge like this -- especially when he SEEMED happy that morning. Or maybe he was just relieved at the idea of ending it all. So tragic.
Huh? They're not releasing the name of the person? Guess there's no way for the public to help find him/her.
I wonder why they're hushing it up. Seems to me there are lots of eyes in the community that might help spot him/her.
Yeah, right, give them both a $46 fine for not wearing seatbelts. That ought to teach them a lesson. If he wasn't wearing his seatbelt, and at this writing, it's still "if," I think he has learned his lesson. Do you really think a fine will reinforce that?
I always fasten my seatbelt. To me, it makes good sense. But people who have had a bad experience with them (like being trapped), or feel claustrophobic in them sometimes do not want to wear them. I think they're wrong, but what can you do?
Well, you can fine them, I guess, but in this tragic case, it should not be our first concern.
Right now, the fact that these men were injured is my main concern. I hope they are both OK.

(WTVR) – A shooting in Chicago took the life of a teenager who had just performed at President Obama's inauguration.
Police said 15-year-old Hadiya Pendleton was gunned down at a Chicago park just blocks away from her school.
A witness said about ten students in the park scattered when a man opened fire. Hadiya and another teen collapsed.
She was a part of the Chicago drill team that marched and performed in the inauguration parade in D.C.
Bonita O'Bannion, a neighbor expressed her concern.
"There has to be an end to it," O'Bannion said, "It's just too much, the children cannot go to school, they are in fear."
Police do not believe the teens were the intended targets.
The other teen is still recovering at a Chicago hospital.

Friday Night Tacos(?) for a Group
Hey fellow foodies, I've got friends coming in from out of town tomorrow and I am scrambling to come up with a good restaurant for a group. We're 12 people including kids all they way from 3mos to 9yrs old. Obvs needs to be kid-friendly and large enough to accommodate us, so probably looking for something "under the radar," so to speak, as waiting an hour for a table isn't really an option. Ethnic food was suggested by the group leader, and I've got some good options already (Sun Wah, Khan BBQ) but I'm looking for a good taco place to add to the list of possibilities. We're on the north side but willing to go as far south as Pilsen if it's a good fit. I love Nuevo Leon but it's too busy on a Friday night, other taco places I'm thinking of are okay but I haven't come up with the perfect one just yet. Any contenders come to your mind? Also, if you have other non-taco suggestions, I'll add them to the list, as well. Thanks for the help!
