Woman declared fit for trial in husband's death
TUCSON — Lawyers for a woman accused in the car-bombing death of her ex-husband in Tucson nearly 16 years ago believe their client remains mentally unfit even though she had been ruled psychologically competent to stand trial.
The Arizona Daily Star reports (http://bit.ly/VcAdz2) that Pima County Superior Court Judge Richard Fields ruled 55-year-old Pamela Phillips was competent to stand trial.
Phillips was indicted on charges that she orchestrated the Nov. 1, 1996, death of Gary Triano.
Triano died in a pipe-bomb explosion outside a country club.
The man accused of building and detonating the bomb, Ronald Young, is serving two life sentences.
Phillips was declared incompetent to stand trial last December and was ordered to participate in a jail restoration-to-competency program.
Her trial is scheduled to begin April 23.

Why do your fingers get pruney after a long water bath? Only a handful of researchers (ever) have looked into the finger-wrinkling experience.

text: M$ will stop at nothing. I go to the University of Waterloo in Ontario, Canada. I don't know if any of you recall, but a while back there was a slashdot story on Microsoft and my school. Basically, M$ has a strong history of partnerships with Waterloo, but general attitude was leaning towards Linux. M$ made the school an offer they couldn't refuse, donating over $2.5 million. In return, some of the Math and Engineering guys were contracted to design a new handwriting recognition system for the pocket PC (no big deal), and (here's the kicker) all first year programming courses had to be taught in C#. The university has re-evaluated its relationship with MS due to the explosion of student protest, but there are still courses being offered in C#, and there are now no plans to move the school network from Win2k to Linux in the forseeable future (there used to be a significant movement to do just that).

Chandler Within Reach of Wilt's FG Pct Record
Despite Saturday's 3-for-7(!) in the Knicks' loss to Houston, Tyson Chandler is still shooting 70.8% from the field on the season and on pace to become the first player to shoot over 70% for a season since Wilt Chamberlain made 72.7% of his attempts during the 1972-73 campaign. Jeremy Bauman at Sheridan Hoops flags a nice quote from Rasheed Wallace on part of what has made Tyson so effective offensively this sesaon:
"We're putting teams in a nice quandary right now. Either you're gonna leave our lethal shooters open on the 3-point line, covering Tyson the right way and giving up the 3-point shot. If you lean out to our shooters a little bit – which most teams are starting to do that – then Tyson is gonna be wide open for layups and dunks and 3-point plays, so it's a matter of teams picking their poison."
Chandler's jump shot is a bit like the mythical unicorn, and though there is some evidence that it exists, it's a species nearly as rare as the once much speculated 'Charles Oakley dribble drive." Nonetheless, Chandler has become one of the best roll men in the league, and he and Raymond Felton have often made sweet music together throughout the year to set up a ton of easy hoops. It's also another area in which Mike Woodson deserves enormous credit for the orchestration of the Knicks' offense, as he continues to utilize his talent really effectively.

Let's Pretend This Never Happened: A Mostly True Memoirby Jenny Lawson
Synopses & Reviews
Publisher Comments:
For fans of Tina Fey and David Sedaris — Internet star Jenny Lawson, aka The Bloggess, makes her literary debut.
When Jenny Lawson was little, all she ever wanted was to fit in. That dream was cut short by her fantastically unbalanced father (a professional taxidermist who created dead-animal hand puppets) and a childhood of wearing winter shoes made out of used bread sacks. It did, however, open up an opportunity for Lawson to find the humor in the strange shame spiral that is her life, and we are all the better for it.
Lawson's long-suffering husband and sweet daughter are the perfect comedic foils to her absurdities, and help her to uncover the surprising discovery that the most terribly human moments — the ones we want to pretend never happened — are the very same moments that make us the people we are today.
Let's Pretend This Never Happened is a poignantly disturbing, yet darkly hysterical tome for every intellectual misfit who thought they were the only ones to think the things that Lawson dares to say out loud. Like laughing at a funeral, this book is both irreverent and impossible to hold back once you get started.
"In punchy chapters that cover a fairly uneventful life in the southern Republican regions, blogger Lawson achieves an exaggerated sarcasm that occasionally attains a belly laugh from the reader ('I grew up a poor black girl in New York. Except replace 'black' with 'white' and 'New York' with 'rural Texas'), but mostly descends into rants about bodily functions and dead animals spiced with profanity. The daughter of a taxidermist whose avid foraging and hunting filled their 'violently rural' Wall, Tex., house with motley creatures like raccoons and turkeys and later triggered some anxiety disorder, Lawson did not transcend her childhood horrors so much as return to them, marrying at age 22 a fellow student at a local San Angelo college, Victor, and settling down in the town with a job in 'HR' while Victor worked 'in computers.' In random anecdotal segments Lawson treats the vicissitudes of her 15-year marriage, the birth of daughter Hailey after many miscarriages, some funny insider secrets from the HR office, and an attempt to learn to trust women by spending a weekend in California wine country with a group of bloggers. With little substantive writing on these subjects, however, Lawson's puerile sniggering and potty mouth gets old fast. Agent: Neeti Madan, Sterling Lord." Publishers Weekly Copyright PWxyz, LLC. All rights reserved.
"Even when I was funny, I wasn't this funny." Augusten Burroughs, author of Running With Scissors and This is How
"The Bloggess writes stuff that actually is laugh-out-loud, but you know that really you shouldn't be laughing and probably you'll go to hell for laughing, so maybe you shouldn't read it. That would be safer and wiser." Neil Gaiman
"Jenny Lawson is hilarious, snarky, witty, totally inappropriate, and 'Like Mother Teresa, Only Better.' Marie Claire magazine
"Jenny Lawson's writing is nothing less than revolutionary...I say this without a hint of exaggeration: She may be one of the most progressive women's voices of our time." Karen Walrond, author of The Beauty of Different
"There's something wrong with Jenny Lawson — magnificently wrong. I defy you to read her work and not hurt yourself laughing." Jen Lancaster

Governor Jon Huntsman directed the Utah Department of Commerce and Utah's Energy Advisor last week to probe the ongoing high cost of gasoline in Utah which he termed as "remarkably high."
Nationally, gasoline prices have been steadily declining over the past several weeks. However, Utahns continue to pay some of the highest prices for gasoline in the nation.
"Our current market price reflects a similar trend shown earlier in the summer when local prices were below the national average," said Dr. Laura Nelson, energy advisor to Governor Jon Huntsman. "We are reviewing the current market and expect our market will continue to stabilize in the Intermountain West."
The Governor has directed Dr. Nelson and Francine Giani, Executive Director of the Commerce Department, to work together with the parties involved in establishing gasoline prices in the State of Utah.
"Other states have not taken extraordinary steps to review the industry but are experiencing price declines now," Giani said. "But we will be vigilant in protecting Utah consumers and actively monitoring prices statewide."
"We are anxious to do all we can to get results in an area as important as gasoline prices for all Utahns," Governor Huntsman said.

Comments about Verve X Series Marching Snare Drum:
It is a good drum, It sounds more like a concert snare, but it sounds amazing if your playing more of a traditional style of drumming. I was about to send it back, but thats because i thought there was something wrong with the head, so if you get it. 1) get a better head like a Remo, but not a marching head, a concert head, becasuse the marching head will get torn up. 2) Tightn the original head on the drum (Top and Bottem), they keep it loose so it doesnt brake. And as they say you get for what you payed for.
Comments about Verve X Series Marching Snare Drum:
im not usally in the marching band but i love to practice on this drum
It has good features but the head sucks but overall besides the head, it is a great drum
this realy isnt your professional marching snare drum but its something very nice to practice on at home
i rate this 9 because it is a very good practice drum and if you get a good head for it, it will be a very good drum at a low price
Comments about Verve X Series Marching Snare Drum:
I wanted a deep wooden shell snare to replace my chrome 5.5 snare. When I saw the price of the Verve X I couldn't go wrong , an neither will you! I replaced both stock heads with Evans and it sounds like a cannon!! I'm very pleased!

For this price, you really cant get a better deal. This snare has a really deep, thunderous tone. It's a really versitile drum; with the internal muffler and how wide the tension range of the snare strainer is, the possibilities are endless.

"This is the third pair of this style shoe I've had. I bought the first pair which was replaced by NB due to seam separation on the sole after less than a year with another 600 series shoe. It lasted less than 8 months and suffered seam separation by, you guessed it, glue failure. Replaced again with the 624 shoe and I noticed tonight, December 20, 2014, the heel, left shoe is seperating from the body of the body. As far as I'm concerned NB couldn't send me a shoe for every month and I wouldn't be happy. I'm done with them as much as I like the product I just don't like the daily rate I've had. So long NB."

"I felt that my last pair was shorter in length than my previous pair. I also feel quality has slipped a bit. The stitching on the side where my small toe exerts pressure has worn loose. Probably have 200 miles on the shoes and they are 12 months old. I wish they had a little more cushion and more arch support so that I would not have to put arch support in them."

"I have been purchasing New Balance Shoes for approximately 15 years. I have always been pleased with their product, until now. The Shoes I currently own, are falling apart in several ways. The rubber on the heel is separating, and I have a flap hanging when I walk. The soles are falling off of the shoes body. I have owned these for an extended time period, however, I only wear them in the Summer months, and I only when I walk for health. The soles and shoe body show very little wear, and look new at first glance. I believe something may have went wrong in the assembly process, and want to continue wearing New Balance,however I am now considering trying perhaps another brand, as I have read other reviews indicating similar issues, and perhaps it is the quality and manufacturing process that is now suffering. Sad and undecided at this point"

The International Joint Commission next month will hold public hearings on its new water management proposal Plan 2014 in several Lake Ontario and St. Lawrence River communities, including Alexandria Bay.
The hearing in Alexandria Bay will be held from 6 to 9 p.m. July 17 at Bonnie Castle Resort and Marina, 31 Holland St.
Announcing the start of a public comment period Thursday, the IJC introduced the addition of trigger levels to its Bv7 water management proposal, which will allow the binational water regulator to deviate from the regulation plan and take extraordinary actions when lake water levels exceed or drop below certain points.
These high and low trigger levels will vary greatly depending on the season and are anticipated to lessen the negative effects of the wider range of water levels allowed under Bv7 compared with the current regulation plan.
For example, while 245.77 feet would be considered a high trigger level in mid-November, levels as high as 248.12 feet would be allowed in early June under the new Plan 2014.
Low triggers will vary from as low as 243.18 feet in late January through early February to as high as 244.91 feet for most of June and early July.
Through Plan 2014 which is essentially Plan Bv7 with triggers for deviation the IJC aims to substantially reduce the negative effects on shoreline properties and recreational boating projected under Bv7, said Bernard Beckhoff, the commissions Canadian-sector spokesman.
Even with Plan 2014, however, the annual cost of shoreline protection is estimated to increase by $2.2 million because of a higher risk of flooding and erosion damage.
Under Bv7, IJC had projected that coastal property owners would spend a total of $3.1 million more annually to prevent or mitigate damage than they are spending now on shoreline protection.
For this reason, lakeshore property owners have been urging the IJC to keep its current management plan, 1958-DD, which aims to keep water levels relatively steady within a four-foot range 247.3 feet being the upper limit and 243.3 feet the lower limit.
While addition of a seasonal high and low range to Plan Bv7 also slightly reduces the environmental benefits expected under the IJCs previous proposal, Mr. Beckhoff said, the environmental improvement projected under the newly introduced Plan 2014 is nearly the same as under Bv7.
Also part of IJCs new proposal is an adaptive management strategy that will be funded by the U.S. and Canadian governments to allow the commission to better monitor trends in water supply and evaluate its water regulation plan more frequently.
The public comment period ends Aug. 30, and the IJC intends to make a recommendation and seek concurrence from the two federal governments this fall.
Five other public hearings have been scheduled in addition to the July 17 hearing in Alex Bay:
n July 14 in Training Center 4-H of Cornell Cooperative Extension, 4487 Lake Ave., Lockport.
n July 15 at Ramada Jordan Beacon Harbourside Hotel & Suites, 2793 Beacon Blvd., Jordan, Ontario.
n July 16 at the Williamson Central High School auditorium, 5891 Route 21, Williamson.
n July 18 at the Best Western Plus Hotel Europa, 1240 Drummond St., Montreal.
n July 19 at the Ramada Inn and Conference Centre, 805 Brookdale Ave., Cornwall, Ontario.
Members of the public also may attend, but may not participate in, technical hearings on the new water regulation proposal that will be held from July 15 through July 19 in Toronto, Rochester, Oswego, Montreal and Akwesasne, Ontario.
Records of hearings and more information regarding IJCs proposal will be made available online on the commissions website: http://ijc.org/en_/losl

San Antonio 97, Clippers 88
Posted by Kevin Arnovitz on Thu, 03/27/08, 10:59am:
If nothing else, Chris Kaman's return demonstrated his value to the Clippers, even though the big man had some rust. Kaman posted a -20 for the game, but the fact that the Clips were able to get back to size helped immensely: The battle on the boards was even between the Clips and the best defensive rebounding team in the association, and the Clips even won the offensive glass. And though Kaman still isn't more than an average post defender – though he's a super shot blocker and a pretty good help defender – his presence not only changes shot, but it takes a whole lotta pressure off backcourt and wing defenders who know longer have to worry that a penetrator who's able to pierce the first line of defense won't have such a direct route to the hole.
The 4th quarter collapse was disheartening and the Clips haven't won a game in weeks, but I think we all need to arrive at a certain place, however pollyanna-ish it might be:
Let it be resolved that the 2007-2008 season isn't a setback for the franchise. A pause button was pressed. Next season, the Clippers will feature a formidable 4-5 frontcourt presence; Cuttino Mobley will be the 4th, and possibly 5th offensive option – which isn't a bad thing. Barring injuries, the bench should be more than adequate. And there's been a notable ancillary benefit to the wretchedness this season: The development of one Al Thornton, a wing player who will undoubtedly be one of the better value players in the game over the next four seasons.
Woody Allen in Annie Hall said: "I feel that life is divided into the horrible and the miserable. That's the two categories…The horrible are like, I don't know, terminal cases, you know, and blind people, crippled. I don't know how they get through life. It's amazing to me. And the miserable is everyone else. So you should be thankful that you're miserable, because that's very lucky, to be miserable." The next month of basketball will be nothing more than miserable, but be grateful it won't be horrible.
And there's always this to look forward to.

Just going to leave this here. Boeing 707 roll by Test Pilot Tex Johnson. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ra_khhzuFlE
Yup real thing went to A&E school in Seattle back in the early 60s with the copilot on that flights son. His father came down one day and talked about the events leading up to the 707 doing a roll over the Seafair race corse. Chuck Lyford did the same thing around 70-72 in a Lear that he owned or flew for someone. He got his ticket pulled upon landing at Pane Field and ended up for a few years in S America flying for hire in Fighters. He and another fellow used to fly P51s at airshows in the early 60x also.Just FYI.
I know someone that rolled an AA 727 in the 80's, it was empty coming out of JFK or LGA, don't remember which. I'm sure older AA pilots know who it is...
[This poster has been suspended.]
yeah i remember. not sure sure to admire him or punch him in the face.
U were at AA??? I thought u were NWA...
I notice one of the comments in the story itself mentioned that Airbus would lock a pilot out of such a manuever as it was outside the envelope. A law change would put you in control if you had time to make it, but with most upsets, you don't have that time. That said, upsets happen all the time but AF447 seem to be the last major crash so either they are not so bad, or the recovery is not outside the envelope. I guess the technology is much improved but the 707, while a sweet bird, would bite you in the butt in a hurry and could almost sense when you were relaxed an/or not paying close attention to her.
Back in the roaring 50's I think, there was a guy named Bookout doing fancy things in airplanes...
Not that fancy and not that early.lol. I ain't that old THRUSST. There is great meaning to that saying about there being no "OLD and BOLD Pilots around".
We gotta change that, how's the RJ flying?
Haven't started yet. We won't get it until about 12/1. Me and another guy will probably do a couple of what I'll call shakedown flights in December but I don't really anticipate anything major until after the Holidays. It's taken this long for everybody to see just who is on first after the election. I know a lot of the 1st quarter trips were based on some folks looking to expand but word I hear is that everybody is real quiet now, waiting to see what congress does and what they have to look forward too. That's the bulk of what these folks do is long range planning and consulting, and they have a whole lot to look at and learn themselves, so it will all be interesting now.
What kinda business r ur people in, if you're at liberty to say?
I have heard stories of this man....almost like a mythological creature
I was going to bring up the same thing but you beat me to it. Story goes around in several different versions as well, about a 707 getting upendded somewhere, Captain had given up on recovery. Young FO asked for a crack at it and he had to roll it out to recover. Don't really know if that's fact or fiction as I have heard several versions of it
Another fellow I spoke with was a flight line mech when it happened he said that Tex would come back from a test flight before it happened with pannels wrinkled and some covers missing with storys about doing stalls and having a little trouble. Turned out that was not the cause.
Most planes will barrel roll if you know what you're doing. It's basically a 1g maneuver (I think; never trained in aerobatics) so you *shouldn't* break anything.
Exactly right. I said "if you know what you're doing". Never attempt aerobatics unless in an airplane certified to do so, and you receive the proper instruction.
And there are other issues. The fuel system on most planes is generally not designed to handle inverted flight, so you could get a momentary interruption in fuel flow, especially if you're plane is pure gravity feed (Cessnas, etc).
comment like that is gonna get some student killed
He is correct about the 1G, however the student doing that tells you what their decision making is.
Well, you notice he says "MOST PLANES" and he says you *SHOULDN'T" break anything.
Mr. Murphy has a knack for showing up unannounced at times like that, and among other things, the seat will need redoing due to the pucker factor.lol
This one was at about 140 degrees at one point . FedEx Flight 705, a McDonnell Douglas DC-10-30 ferrying electronics to San Jose,(KSJC) experienced an attempted hijacking for the purpose of a suicide attack on April 7, 1994. On that day Auburn Calloway, a FedEx employee and US Navy veteran facing possible dismissal for lying about his previous flying experience, boarded the scheduled flight with several concealed hammers and a speargun. Once airborne he intended to kill the crew using blunt force so that the injuries inflicted would appear as though created in the crash. He then planned to intentionally crash the aircraft into Federal Express' Memphis headquarters. He believed that concealing his death as an accident while still an employee would make his family eligible for a $2.5 million life insurance policy paid by Federal Express.
The hijacking was unsuccessful, as the crew was able to fight back, despite severe wounds, subdue the attacker, and safely land the aircraft. The crew has never been able to return to commercial flight status
I remember that well, but dang, it don't seem like it's been 18 years.
Just finished reading, The Flight by M.R. Hall, an English writer. The flight envelope of the A380 is the central issue of the novel and would make interesting reading for contributors to this squawk.
ISBN 978-0-230-75202-3 2012 Macmillan
Tex Johnson was a bad ass....I've heard Hoov and Yeager talk about him
Maybe some of you will remember a couple of Boeing Test Pilots by the names of, Lew Wallick, and Paul "Pablo" Bennett. They followed in the same footprints of Tex Johnson. I often wondered in amazement at what these excellent pilots got away with.They will surely be missed.
After the uplifting content of Whip Whitaker's struggles with addiction in FLIGHT, you should stick around until after the credits to see bloopers from the movie.
It is physically possible, but no sane pilot would do it except as a last ditch attempt. There was an incident where a Beech where the wing torqued upwards, so the pilot inverted to keep the wing in place. I haven't verified this, but I heard it from my school's aviation club.

Note to Wendy Williams,This is a great wig! I'm disappointed that it's on clearance. Could you design a similar one with a longer length? I was so impressed when I tried it on. It fits just like your photo! Thanks!

beautiful wig
By sharon denise
from connecticut
This is a great wig, but the description did not state that it was a lace front wig. I tried it on, and it always felt as if it was slipping off by head. The color I ordered (fs1b/33) looked natural. I truely wish i could wear the wig.
Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend

Not advertised for what it really is
By Ms C
from Brooklyn NY
I don't have anything negative to say about the style and look of the wig itself. Why I returned it and complained is that no where in the description of the product does it say it is a laced front wig. I personally cannot wear them without adhesive and I have a reaction to the glue and tape. After I received it did I see that it is a lace front. Whether it has bangs or not it still needs adhesive for me to wear it. I had to large a complaint and send it back.

Liked but...
By PDK

About Me Beauty Conscious
Thankfully, I bought two of these to start. The first matted terribly and would not style with heat as advertised. I have not had problem with the second wig. I do love the color and style but will not take another chance due to matting.

Everything Mr. Burge focused on in his statement to the governor was right on track to what has happened. I would like to add my own personal sentiments.
In a press release, the honorable Jon Huntsman stated that if it takes every dollar this guy has in his bank account, he needs to bring closure to this thing. Governor out of respect for the communitie's of Carbon and Emery county "this guy" has a name, and it is Mr. Robert Murray. How hard would that have been for you to say?
Governor, when you attack Mr. Murray about his bank account, you Mr. Huntsman attack all of his employees and the livelihood of Carbon and Emery counties. As far as Mr. Cecil Roberts, union president, asking for an investigation of mining experts to probe the collapse, I don't recall when the tragedy at the Wilberg Mine happened any non-union, co-owner or operator of their mine wanting an investigation. As far as to say MSHA has a spotty track record when it comes to protecting miners. How sir, Mr. Roberts, would you happen to know that fact?
My husband has been coal miner for 35 years. His is professional at what he does as are all miners. I don't appreciate anyone saying, Mr. Murray's miners are not safe. What you are really saying is coal miners aren't smart enough to know what is safe and what isn't. No coal miner is forced to do anything. They make the choice, be it right or wrong. Don't treat these miners like they are small children. If they felt they weren't safe I'm sure they wouldn't be working at Mr. Murray's mines. Give credit where credit is due.
Mr. Murray said the mountain at Crandall Canyon was evil. I'm beginning to think everyone involved in the witch hunt about Mr. Murray are as evil as the mountain.
As I pray everyday for all 15 miners. I say an extra little prayer for their families, and that the Lord will give them courage and strength.
As for the witch hunters, maybe you need to fall on your knees and say a prayer for yourselves.

A full water bottle is essential equipment for outdoor activities.
Heat is the number one weather-related killer in America. According to National Weather Service, heat causes more fatalities per year than floods, lightning, tornadoes or hurricanes.
Based on the 10-year average from 2000 to 2009, excessive heat claims an average of 162 lives a year. By contrast, hurricanes killed 117; floods, 65; tornadoes, 62; and lightning, 48.
"Overexposure to heat can be incredibly dangerous, especially for children and the elderly," says Cameron Williams MD, emergency room physician at Castleview Hospital. "With summer in full swing and much of the country experiencing record-high temperatures, it's essential that we're all heat smart. This means taking steps to prevent overexposure and learning to recognize and respond to the signs of heat stroke."
Williams suggests these tips for beating the heat this summer:
Be aware of temperatures and humidity levels, and modify your activities appropriately.
Limit outdoor activities from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m., when temperatures are highest.
Stay hydrated by drinking plenty of low-sugar or no-sugar fluids.
Stay in relatively cool areas, even when outside. When temperatures are over 90 degrees, seek refuge at an area library, community center or store if you don't otherwise have access to air conditioning.
Avoid hot enclosed places, such as cars and garages. Never leave children or animals unattended in a car, especially when parked in the sun.
Wear loose-fitting, lightweight and light-colored clothing.
Avoid or limit your use of alcohol, as it can impair your body's ability to regulate its temperature.
In the event that overexposure to heat does occur, it's important to be able to recognize the signs of heat stroke.
According to Williams, heat stroke is a form of hyperthermia (abnormally elevated body temperature) with accompanying physical and neurological symptoms. Unlike heat exhaustion, a less-severe form of hyperthermia, heat stroke is a true medical emergency that can be fatal if not quickly and appropriately treated.
"The body normally generates heat as a result of metabolism, and is typically able to dissipate the heat by either radiation of heat through the skin or by evaporation of sweat," He says. "However, in extreme heat, high humidity or with vigorous exertion in the sun, the body may not be able to dissipate the heat, resulting in extreme increases in body temperature.
"Another cause of heat stroke is dehydration," He adds.
Signs of overexposure to heat include:
⢠Pale, clammy skin;
⢠Muscle cramps;
⢠Headache;
⢠Feeling tired and weak;
⢠Nausea or vomiting;
⢠Confusion or disorientation; and/or
⢠Becoming semi-conscious or passing out.
If you or someone you encounter is experiencing a heat-induced illness:
⢠Call 9-1-1.
⢠Get the person out of the sun immediately.
⢠Apply water to help the person cool off.
⢠Apply ice to the neck or armpits, where large blood vessels are close to the surface.
⢠Remove any heavy clothing.
⢠Immerse the body in cool water, either at a swimming pool or in a bathtub or shower.
