Baseball Handles Hofstra 8-3
April 6, 2004
Hempstead, N.Y. - Isidro Fortuna went 2-for-4 with two RBI and Nick Theoharis hit a two-run double as part of a five-run third inning as the Stony Brook baseball team defeated Hofstra 8-3 at University Field on Tuesday afternoon. The Seawolves evened their record at 11-11 on the season, while Hofstra fell to 7-15 overall.
The Seawolves broke open a scoreless game in the third inning, plating five runs off Hofstra starter John Fuhrman. Stony Brook opened the inning with back-to-back doubles by Brett Bernard and Stephen Didsbury to take a 1-0 lead, and Didsbury came around to score on an RBI single by Fortuna for the second run of the inning. Cole Cicatelli then walked and came around to score along with Fortuna on the Theoharis double. Theoharis advanced to third on a single by Kevin Solano and finished off the scoring in the inning by stealing home plate.
Hofstra fought back with a run in the bottom of the fourth on an RBI groundout by Mike Walsh that scored J.P. Wechter, who led off the inning with a triple. A two-run home run by Josh Stewart in the seventh cut the Seawolves lead to 5-3 but that was all Hofstra could manage offensively, as Kris Bakey and Matt Restivo shut the door on the Pride in the eighth and ninth innings.
Stony Brook added three runs in the top of the ninth on RBI's by Didsbury, Andrew Larsen and Fortuna to close out the scoring and give the Seawolves an 8-3 victory.
Fortuna led the Seawolves offensive attack, going 2-for-4 with 2 RBI, while Theoharis and Didsbury each drove in two runs. Nick Abel (1-0) pitched two strong innings, striking out the side in the fifth, to pick up his first win of the season.
The Seawolves are back in action tomorrow afternoon at 3:30 p.m. when St. Francis (N.Y.) comes to town.

The best guy you will ever meet. A Murphy is often overlooked. But simply put, he is a king among men. He will gladly give you the shirt off his back and ask for nothing in return. He is a lover and not a fighter. He'll defend what is right and your honor. A kindred spirit. Ridiculously good looking. Kind hearted. Hard working.
I'm lucky to have a Murphy as a co-worker.

Do violent games equate with pornography?
They will if Utah Rep. David Hogue (R) has his way. Yesterday, according to a story in the Provo Daily Herald, a Utah House committee passed Hogue's bill, HB 0257 by a 7-2 vote. As reported previously on GamePolitics, the bill initially failed a January 28th vote.
The proposed legislation would make it a felony to knowingly exhibit or sell violent video games to minors,
"It's more than a message bill," Hogue told the newspaper. "This is a bill that identifies the effects that different media has on our children."
While the bill would apply to retailers, it could also affect "perpetrators trying to influence a minor."
The bill defines "inappropriate violence" as games with carnage that offends prevailing community standards and lacks "serious literary, artistic, political or scientific value for minors."
The ESA and ACLU were quick to react.
"This bill is not needed. More importantly, the bill will be challenged as unconstitutional," said the ESA's Scott Sabey. "To plug violence into an obscenity statute won't work."
Eagle Forum Director Gayle Ruzicka spoke out in favor of the bill, saying, "If we have to go all the way to the Supreme Court, then let's take it to the Supreme Court."
For more background, see GP coverage of Hogue's bill from January 25th and January 28th.
GP: We thought this bill was dead and buried, but Hogue apparently made enough changes to satifsy Utah conservatives. With the "games as porn" rhetoric getting actual legislative consideration, Utah's HB 257 immediately becomes the leading political threat to the video game industry so far this year.

Medical Examiner Revises Murder Claims in U.S. Engineer's Death
SINGAPORE–A U.S.-based medical examiner on Tuesday withdrew his initial finding that an American engineer found dead in Singapore last year may have been strangled to death with a cord, but still insisted that the man was likely murdered, disputing initial police findings that pointed to suicide.
Edward Adelstein, who was engaged by the family of the late Shane Todd, told a Singaporean court that he changed his opinion on the cause of Mr. Todd's death after receiving new information from the family, including autopsy photographs.
His testimony, made to a coroner's inquiry into Mr. Todd's death, opposes that of four other experts, including two Singaporean state pathologists and two U.S.-based medical examiners, who concluded the man had died by hanging in a likely suicide.
Mr. Todd, a 31-year-old research scientist, was found dead in his apartment last June just days after leaving his job at Singapore's state-run Institute of Microelectronics.
Singapore's inquiry into Mr. Todd's death comes after the man's parents waged a high-profile campaign challenging the police's initial findings of suicide. The Todd family contends Mr. Todd may have been killed in relation to his work researching semiconductor material for the institute.
The scope of the coroner's inquiry is limited to the cause of death. The inquiry is due to end next Tuesday, and the coroner's conclusions are expected three to four weeks after that.
Dr. Adelstein, a 75-year-old county-level deputy medical examiner in the U.S. state of Missouri, testified that he initially concluded that Mr. Todd had been garroted—meaning choked with a cord or similar material—after reviewing the original autopsy report by Singaporean state pathologist Wu Jiahao, and several photographs of Mr. Todd's body taken at his funeral, more than a week after he was found dead.
But after reviewing more photographs of Mr. Todd's body, sent to him a week ago, Dr. Adelstein said he couldn't form a conclusive opinion on how the engineer died. Nonetheless, he still believes Mr. Todd was dead before being hanged on a door frame in his Singapore apartment, the medical examiner told the inquiry over a video-link from his home in the U.S.
Dr. Adelstein, who told the inquiry that he was not a qualified forensic pathologist, said he found that Mr. Todd's body didn't show certain signs of internal bleeding that could result from a suicide by hanging. He also said the photographs he saw showed bruises on Mr. Todd's body that suggested that the engineer was in a fight before he died.
Dr. Adelstein also speculated on the possible ways that Mr. Todd could have been killed, such as being stunned by a Taser electroshock weapon or by a "carotid armlock." But when questioned by Deputy Senior State Counsel Isaac Tan, Dr. Adelstein said that he had "no proof" for his claims on how Mr. Todd may have been killed.
Dr. Adelstein's opinion on the cause of Mr. Todd's death conflicts with that of two other U.S.-based medical examiners engaged by Singaporean authorities. David Fowler, chief medical examiner for the U.S. state of Maryland, and Valerie Rao, a district medical examiner in Jacksonville, Fla., had issued in February and March separate opinions agreeing with Dr. Wu's autopsy finding that Mr. Todd had died from "asphyxia due to hanging."
Drs. Fowler and Rao had reached their conclusions after studying Dr. Wu's report, a review of the original autopsy by Dr. Wu's supervisor, Wee Keng Poh; and the analysis by Dr. Adelstein done in October 2012. Drs. Fowler and Rao, who are forensic pathologists certified by the American Board of Pathology, are due to testify at the inquiry this week.
When questioned by Mr. Tan on why his findings differed from four other experts, Dr. Adelstein said he believed that the other experts were "wrong."
Dr. Adelstein said he believed Mr. Todd was unlikely to have committed suicide, based on what the family told him about the engineer's character and mental state. He told the inquiry that he based some of his "conjectures" on Mr. Todd's death from past experience reviewing suicide cases, and the family's theory that Mr. Todd was fearful for his life due to his work researching sensitive technologies in a project involving the Institute of Microelectronics and Chinese telecommunications company Huawei Technologies Co.
The institute and Huawei have denied they were collaborating on any research.
When questioned by the Singapore state counsel, Dr. Adelstein said he wasn't aware that police had found evidence on Mr. Todd's laptop showing that the research scientist had apparently visited suicide-related websites on 19 occasions from March to June 2012.
At Tuesday's inquiry, Mr. Adelstein also said he had insights into Mr. Todd's frame of mind before his death, citing the "relevant" experiences of his son Jake Adelstein, who has claimed to have received death threats over his work as a journalist covering Japanese organized crime.
The younger Mr. Adelstein is the author of the bestselling book "Tokyo Vice," which was based on his experiences reporting on crime for Japanese daily Yomiuri Shimbun.

nice one but body plastic quality isn't wellWhen I boil water or make a cup of tea then I can feel a plastic smell!! Otherwise it's very easy to use, well design, affordable price.. But if you're looking for a good and strong electric kettle then go for a steel body kettle.

PremierWest Bancorp, parent company of PremierWest Bank, Wednesday reiterated its position on why shareholders should approve a $1.65 per share buyout proposal by Starbuck Bancshares at a special meeting next Tuesday.
PremierWest has suffered through capital difficulties since the real estate market bubble burst six years ago. It received $41.4 million from the Treasury Department's Troubled Asset Relief Program (TARP) in February 2009 and later found itself in regulatory hot water with both the state and Federal Deposit Insurance Corp.
In October, Starbuck Bancshares, the parent company of AmericanWest Bank in Spokane, Wash., reached an accord with PremierWest to acquire the Medford-based bank.
The company's biggest shareholder, Georges St. Laurent, who holds more than 9 percent of the shares, declared shortly thereafter he would vote against the deal.
Restating the points it made at the time the deal was announced, PremierWest said in a statement that it needs to substantially increase its capital base to meet regulatory requirements, resolve remaining credit issues and remain competitive.
The statement said the bank's earlier efforts to raise capital from private equity and institutional investors were not acceptable to the Treasury Department, and raising capital would have further diluted the holdings of existing shareholders.
"Despite significant efforts, no other acquirer stepped forward with an offer to acquire PremierWest at a value that was higher than that being offered by Starbuck," PremierWest said in the statement.
If the merger is not completed, the five years allowed to repay Treasury would expire at the end of 2014. "If our consent order with state and federal regulators remains in effect and we are unable to obtain consent from our regulators to pay accrued interest at the end of the permissible deferral period, we would default on the (TARP) payments," the company said.
The shareholder meeting begins at 1 p.m. Tuesday at Rogue Valley Country Club.

Ok... call me obtuse, but what's strange about that? I'm not terribly

my *guess* is that you're confused by the PA_RISC2.0 in the path?
Remember that PA_RISC2.0 has nothing to do with the Java version -
PA_RISC2.0 is the machine architecture of your 11.11 box (as opposed

Secret City Sounds continues their Summer Concert Series with The Red Hot Horn Dawgs on Friday, July 19. The concert will begin at 7 p.m. at the Oak Ridge Civic Center pavilion located at 1403 Oak Ridge Turnpike.
The Red Hot Horn Dawgs are a nine piece band with a full horn section and are loaded with extroverted showmen. Their library spans the best years of American popular music, from Otis Redding and Elvis Presley to Billy Joel, Big Bad Voodoo Daddy, Kid Rock and Toby Keith. The tunes they play are designed to be music everybody knows. (The crowd often sings along at a volume the band can hear onstage above their monitors.) The Horn Dawgs design the song list to build momentum throughout a set, getting people out on the dance floor and keeping them there until the end. What sets the Dawgs above other bands is a dedication to push beyond simply playing a bunch of songs to creating an entertaining show. The group sometimes has run limbo contests under the slide of a rusty trombone, sent a trumpet player prancing through the crowd beating on a cowbell. Whatever it takes to add pizazz to a show! We hope you will make plans to join the Arts Council as we host this truly unique group in Oak Ridge.
All Secret City Sounds concerts are presented by the Arts Council of Oak Ridge and sponsored by the city of Oak Ridge and are free of charge, so bring a blanket or a chair and set up on the lawn behind the pavilion at Bissell Park for a great night of music. The Other One will be offering delicious food items, Razzleberry's will be selling ice cream from the pig mobile, and the Arts Council will have a variety of beverages available.
In the event of inclement weather see updates on the Arts Council of Oak Ridge website at www.artscouncilofoakridge.org. If you have a smartphone or tablet download the free app to keep updated. Search Oak Ridge Arts Council to find the new app.

Patrick often asks me when I pause and stare at whatever game he has on TV if I'm watching or thinking. I'm always thinking. I don't know about you, but tomorrow starts the second month of the year and I'm still very much trying to find my 2014 stride. Does that make any sense? Lots on my mind these days! This weekend I'm doing a little wedding planning, tackling random errands & commissioned work, getting organized for tax season (funnn), and taking a Skillshare online callligraphy class. I'm actually taking an in-person 3 hour calligraphy course one night next week to learn some new techniques with gouache so I can maybe offer custom colors eventually :)
It's been an exciting week at the letterpress studio for wedding things! And I finally finished the entire series of Breaking Bad (SO. GOOD.) so now I'm in one of those terrible funks that happens when you finish a good book or TV series. It reminds me of one of my favorite quotes from Nora Ephron.
"There is something called the rapture of the deep, and it refers to what happens when a deep-sea diver spends too much time at the bottom of the ocean and can't tell which way is up. When he surfaces, he's liable to have a condition called the bends, where the body can't adapt to the oxygen levels in the atmosphere. All of this happens to me when I surface from a great book."
I'm going to try and take a break from shows and get through a couple books on my shelf, but I'd love to hear any series recommendations for when I'm ready to start something new! Anything I should check out?
So yes, I'll admit I couldn't care less about the Superbowl (I know, I knowww) … but I'll watch (read: think) and maybe fix some treats :) Do you have fun plans for the weekend and game?

The Key to Growth? Furukawa's 'Innovation'
For a fresh reminder there are no easy cures to Japan's long economic malaise, consider government attempts to juice growth.
The cabinet office has two long-term economic scenarios. Under the "modest" assumption, GDP will grow an average of 1% per year through 2020. The "aggressive" model would double that.
The difference: "Innovation."
At a press conference Wednesday, Economy Minister Motohisa Furukawa repeatedly touted the need for Japan to pursue that path, by hook or by crook – whatever innovation actually means.
"What's important for Japan is innovation," he said. "Innovation is discontinuous development, so by achieving this, we can raise the potential growth rate."
Discontinuous development? Let's try that again. "Innovation is something new that is free from the chain of what we've long been doing. We need developmental creation to make the best use of Japan's good points."
Before Mr. Furukawa had a chance to expound on "developmental creation," a reporter piped up: "What actual steps must be taken to achieve innovation, and what innovation would help Japan achieve 2% GDP growth?"
Mr. Furukawa's meditative reply: "If we know what that is, we won't call it innovation. Innovation is something nobody knows yet."
He did, however, offer one policy to get there: "We can relax regulations to make innovation easier to happen."

BARLOW - Three candidates for the job of superintendent of schools for the Warren Local School District met with the public Saturday at Warren High School.
After a brief introduction, the candidates took turns meeting with a staff group and two community groups, after which the groups were asked to rank the candidates in order of their preference.
Candidates for the job of superintendent of schools were:
Michael B. Edwards recently resigned as special education director of Clear Fork Valley Schools in Richland County.
Curtis M. Clough is completing his second year as superintendent at Strasburg-Franklin in Tuscarawas County.
J. Gregory Grant is finishing his third year as principal at New Lexington Elementary in Perry County.
In his meeting, Edwards said in filling administrative positions he would look for people who have a passion for education. He wants to show administrators where they are and what direction they want to go and support them.
Edwards said the only way to get anything done in a school system is to have the trust of the community.
"You have to have 100 percent integrity at the superintendent level for your community," he said. "If I tell one person one thing and tell someone else something completely different, there will be mistrust. You have to keep in mind why we are here and it is for the education of children."
Edwards was asked about proposed changes in state funding.
"I'm very much in favor of a more equitable funding formula," he said. "I think it's important that we take an active role as superintendents, as teachers and as parents in letting our leaders know our feelings about equity of funding issues."
Clough has 24 years experience in education in Ohio and Arizona in public schools and higher education.
When asked about the Race to the Top, he said his current district is not in the program but as part of the Stark County consortium for Race to the Top they have been part of meetings to learn more about it.
"I've got quite a bit of extensive experience to know what it is," he said. "I just asked my board after a year of being there why they didn't take the money when we will be judged on those standards in two years anyway."
Clough said he sees Warren as a district on the verge of being a great district and was drawn to the area to also earn an doctoral degree in instructional design at Ohio University. He said he feels the Warren Local board has a great idea of what it wants for the community and district.
Clough said he wants to make sure the schools and community connect.
"You need to understand the community for the community to understand the schools," he said. "Part of the community's job is to hold us accountable."
In his own sessions, Grant was asked how he would work to improve test scores for students in special education and low socio-economic levels that have not done as well as other students in the district.
"You're not in any different boat than mostly every school district across the state of Ohio or the nation," he said. "When I went to New Lexington I put in place inclusion, 90-95 percent of all special ed students are included in the classroom because my philosophy is you are going to take a state test and if I don't expose you to the material I can pretty much guarantee you will fail."
Grant said his goal was to get them in the classroom and give them the support they need.
"It might be some extra special help with the intervention teacher or a small group of students," he said, adding this helps the teachers communicate what they are doing and how they can help reinforce what they taught.
Grant said arts education is important for him.
"I do believe the arts are as important as any other extra-curricular activity," he said. "Your music program, your performing arts, visual arts - all are just as important as any other sporting event or athletic event. Keeping them intact is as important as keeping other programs intact."
Warren Local School District President Sidney Brackenridge said the school board will meet in a special session to consider its choice at 6:30 p.m. today at the board office at 220 Sweetapple Road, Barlow. He said he did not know if the board of education would make its decision then or at the next regular meeting.

Gary Sinise Honors Our Nation's Veterans
Gary Sinise Honors Our Nation's Veterans
The acclaimed actor share his inspiring story of supporting our nation's fighting men and women.
I've played a lot of characters in my more than 30 years as a professional actor, and I'm proud to say a fair number of them have been members of the military. Not a week goes by that someone doesn't refer to me as "Lieutenant Dan," the Vietnam veteran I portrayed in Forrest Gump .
For the past several years, I've been Detective Mac Taylor, an emotionally wounded ex-Marine, on CSI: NY .
Through my work as an actor, tours with the USO and a charity organization I cofounded called Operation Iraqi Children, I've been fortunate to have plenty of firsthand contact with our men and women in uniform. I can't say enough about their commitment and courage. Here are just a few things knowing them has taught me:
Be grateful.
I was a teen during the Vietnam War. While kids just a few years older than me were off fighting in that brutal conflict, I was growing up in suburban Chicago, playing bass, singing in bands with my buddies and performing in school plays.
I saw the news reports about the war on TV and joined an antiwar rally once at my high school—really just to get out of class. I didn't have much of a clue about what was going on over there.
I turned 18 as the war was drawing to a close. I was never into school, so college wasn't for me. I wanted to do theater. I got together with a friend from high school, Jeff Perry, and his friend Terry Kinney, and we started the Steppenwolf Theater Company.
Things fell into place, especially after I contacted the local Chamber of Commerce about finding a space for our fledgling group. They told me about a vacant Catholic school basement that used to be a teen center. "I'll lease it to you for a dollar a year," the priest told me. We built an 88-seat theater in that space and slowly built a following.
When I was 25 I saw a play called Tracers in Los Angeles in which real Vietnam vets relived their experiences. I sat in the audience transfixed. It was one of the most powerful things I'd ever seen. Later I thought about what I'd been doing when I was 18 and 19, how oblivious I was to what guys my age were going through.
I decided to direct a production of the play at Steppenwolf. I had only two vets in my cast and wanted to get a better understanding of the Vietnam experience, so we visited the VA hospital to talk to vets struggling with post-traumatic stress disorder. The battles they described, the haunted look in their eyes—couldn't get them out of my mind.
The worst part was hearing how some people at home had treated them. "I was afraid to wear my uniform in public," one vet said.
I realized how lucky I'd been to have so many opportunities while guys and gals like them had made huge sacrifices, only to be treated with contempt instead of honor. I got involved with vets groups and causes.
My wife, Moira, an actress at Steppenwolf, had brothers who were vets. I talked to them about their experiences. Time and again I thought, We have not been grateful enough for our soldiers.
By the time I read the script of Forrest Gump in 1993, I understood immediately the feelings of bitterness and hurt that Lt. Dan's character wrestled with. Portraying him felt like something I was meant to do, like paying a debt of gratitude.
I'm grateful I had the chance. Grateful I earned a supporting actor Oscar nomination for the role. Grateful to marry Moira and be raising our three teens in this country. And most grateful that there are so many men and women who put their lives on the line to defend it.

For a couple of years with abap exp. i've seen German abbreviations almost everyday, but i don't know what r those abbreviations stand for ?
For example the simply field :
any suggestion or any website to learn ?
SAP AG. should change the name of these data element :
SPERM_M Purchasing block at purchasing organization level
SPERM_X Centrally imposed purchasing block
;p just kidding
I speak German quite well and many of those technical field names don't mean much to me either until I see their descriptions and remember them, and to understand how they are used by displaying the runtime object, and...
=> No shortcuts there for German speakers either - at most it helps the memory performance a little bit...
And it's a good thing too. As you can see from both the Business Object Repository and BAPIs in general, an attempt to render parameter and field names in English seems to lack and form of standard. This means you get EMPLOYEENUMBER and PERSONNELNUMBER referenced to pernr in two different but similar Business Objects. When you are working in a method and take a punt on the key field name, chances are you will have guessed the wrong one.
After a little time in SAP you find remembering the field names just happens. Until English gets a little more exact and limited lets keep it with the German abbreviations.
You know it makes sense.
MANDT -> Mandant
VBELN -> Vertriebsbelegnummer
AUART -> Auftragsart
VKORG -> Verkaufsorganisation
VTWEG -> Vertriebsweg
SPART -> Sparte
GSBER -> Geschäftsbereich
WERKS -> Werk
LGORT -> Lagerort
That old five character limit dates back to R/2 days, I believe.
You could maybe logon in language "DE", if installed? Otherwise just post them here
I was in a shop ordering a new TV, and couldn't remember the word for delivery, until I thought about it in SAP - LIFNR. Ah! Lieferung!
LIFNR = Lieferantennummer = Vendor
KUNNR = Kundennummer = Customer
OK - but I still got my TV delivered!
Unless someone else's user exit delivered it for you...
... Ahh!! a Beamer...
Matt wrote:
> OK - but I still got my TV delivered!
Wait untill shipment status set to "7"
This is such an awesome topic.
I am an American, who speaks German.
I actually sided with SAP over Oracle in the development of my career, because I love German so much.
My company chose not to install the German language pack
If there isn't an official site documenting these, then we should keep this string going!
BELNR - Belegnummer - Document (Receipt) Number

Bull Mountain Epic
Dahlonega, Georgia
Located at the southern terminus of the Appalachian Trail, the Bull Mountain trail network includes more than 50 miles of great riding. The IMBA Epic route covers about 30 miles - nearly all of it singletrack. The trails include a little bit of everything - red clay singletrack, loose rocks, a few stream crossings, and some steep, sustained climbs. This is a multi-use trail system and you can expect to meet horses, especially on weekends.
Update: In partnership with SORBA and local equestrian orgaizations, the USFS completed the first major rerouting and maintenance project on this trail system in 2011. The new upgrades make for a flowly and fast experience on the Jake Mountain trail, Mossy Creek, and Black Branch trails within the Bill Mounatin system.
Additional Information:
Season: Nearly year round, occasional closures in winter due to snow or heavy rain. Hint: the combination of red clay and rain does not equal good mountain biking. Trust us.

Montréal group Plants and Animals have strong feelings about poutine and they're not afraid to go on the record with them.
"I've tried some of the crazy ones they have at Banquise," says guitarist and lead vocalist Warren Spicer. "But honestly, it's too much."
"They should institute something like the Bavarian Purity Law they have for beer," chimes in drummer Matthew Woodley. "Fries, curds, gravy, that's it. Tightly regulated. Free-range, sustainable curds only!"
Sitting in the office of their record label, Secret City, they mention the poutine at Patati Patata, but save the real passion for one closer to their apartments on Avenue du Parc.
"Nouveau Palais has changed their recipe- they've got a darker gravy now," explains Spicer, quite seriously. "It doesn't look better, but it tastes a lot better…and poutine ain't about looks."
Both Spicer, Woodley and guitarist/keyboardist Nicolas Basque live in the Mile End neighbourhood bordered by the street that was the namesake of their debut album, Parc Ave. They love the neighbourhood not only for its poutines, but also because it's filled up with friends, like the owners of gallery/framing shop Frame and Canvas and Andrew and Brad Barr, who are the opening act for their show on April 22nd at La Tulipe , another Montréal favourite of theirs.
"Divan Orange is cozy, like a second home, but La Tulipe is amazing. It may be the best room in Montréal that we've played," says Woodley.
The Mama Papa by Plants and Animals from Secret City Records on Vimeo.
While Parc Ave was informed by their lives in the city, not to mention recorded in large part in Spicer's home studio on the titular street, Plants and Animals' latest, La La Land, was chiefly inspired by their time spend touring.
"It's a progression from Parc Ave, that was very Montréal-centric, this one is going out on the road, taking a look around and coming home and writing songs about it."

Homicide Law
What is Homicide Law?
Homicide law is an umbrella term used to describe a number of offenses that can be charged when the defendant has wrongfully caused the death of another human being. The specific homicide offense charged in a given case will depend upon the defendant's mental state and subjective intentions at the time the crime was committed. Some homicides occur unintentionally, as the result of extremely reckless behavior. Others are committed following a period of deliberation and forethought by the defendant.
These factors can lead to vastly different sentences following a conviction. A lenient sentence may be appropriate in cases involving accidental death. Conversely, premeditated killings are punishable by life in prison, or by the death penalty in states that have not abolished it. Homicide cases are among the most serious of all criminal proceedings. Those accused of any type of homicide crime should seek immediate assistance from a qualified criminal defense attorney.
Statutory Murder Classifications
Historically, crimes such as homicide were a matter of common law, meaning they were created and defined through an evolving body of court decisions. In modern times, homicide laws are established by state legislatures and set forth in penal codes. The most egregious of these statutory offenses are typically labeled murder in the first degree, and murder in the second degree.
First degree murder is unique in that it requires that the defendant acted deliberately, dispassionately, and in a premeditated manner. For at least a brief moment before the killing took place, the defendant must have pondered the matter, and then consciously decided to commit the act. Second degree murder, on the other hand, does not require the element of premeditation. Besides that, the two crimes are identical.
The distinction between first and second degree murder will control which defenses are available. For example, because first degree murder requires that the defendant had a pre-existing intent to commit the crime, the defense of intoxication may be invoked. That is to say, if the defendant was too intoxicated to premeditate on the act, then the element of intent is missing, and the defendant cannot be convicted. Second degree murder does not require a specific mental state, so intoxication is not available as a defense.
Manslaughter Offenses
Criminal justice systems have always recognized some form of reduced culpability for killings that are committed in the "heat of passion." Modern penal codes define the crime of voluntary manslaughter as murder provoked by a sudden and intense passion that caused the defendant to lose control. The events that brought about the emotional reaction must have been of a type that would lead a reasonable person to lose control. Thus, if the defendant reacted irrationally, the reduced charge of voluntary manslaughter is not appropriate.
Whether a murder charge will be reduced to voluntary manslaughter can also depend upon the amount of time that passed between the provocation and the killing. The longer this cooling off period, the less likely the killing will qualify as voluntary manslaughter.
The related crime of involuntary manslaughter differs greatly from both voluntary manslaughter and murder, in that these killings are not committed on purpose. Rather, they are a result of criminal negligence by the defendant. To sustain a conviction for involuntary manslaughter, it must have been foreseeable that the defendant's extreme carelessness could lead to the death of the victim.
Death Caused in the Commission of a Felony
A large percentage of homicide convictions are based on killings that occur while defendants are engaged in the commission of a separate crime. Often referred to as "felony murder," these homicides are based on the idea that a person who commits a dangerous crime should be held responsible for the resulting collateral damage. Nevertheless, the law places some limits on this type of criminal liability.
For example, to be guilty of felony murder, the underlying crime must be a serious one. Penal codes contain lists of these crimes. They usually include robbery, arson, rape, and other violent felonies. The government must also prove the defendant is guilty of the underlying crime. Therefore, if the jury finds the evidence is insufficient to convict the defendant of the underlying crime, the defendant must also be acquitted of felony murder.
There are also restrictions on whose death can form the basis of a felony murder charge. The killing of bystanders, police officers, and other innocent victims will satisfy these statutes, but the killing of a co-conspirator generally will not. Finally, once the underlying crime (and the defendant's flight from the crime scene) is complete, liability for felony murder homicide ends. Any subsequent deaths cannot be charged under this theory.
Homicide Defense Requires a Skilled Attorney
If you are accused of causing someone's death, you need an experienced attorney on your side. Every bit of evidence must be gathered, reviewed, and used to form a defense that will persuade a jury that you are not responsible. To learn what defenses are available to you, contact an attorney today.

Articles About Homicide Law
- Vehicular Homicide Cases and DUI DefensesIt is imperative to defend a client no matter which state or law is involved. A defense strategy should be implemented as soon as possible when the accused is charged with vehicular homicide. Evidence is needed, and witnesses need to be questioned. All details of the death should be recorded and analyzed by a professional.
- Escalating and Deescalating Murder ChargesOn June 5, 2011, there was a case of a transgendered female who was out for a night on the town when she and some of friends were harassed by a group of young men. It started out with harsh words and eventually descended into violence. When she walked away, she was assaulted by one of the men, and she took a pair of scissors from her purse. She stabbed the assaulter, leading to his death.
- What Does "Fruit of the Poisonous Tree" Mean in Criminal Proceedings?The fruit of the poisonous tree doctrine prevents the prosecution from admitting certain evidence into a criminal case after it has been tainted by a primary illegality. This doctrine is meant to remove illegally-acquired evidence from negatively impacting a criminal defendant.
- Accidental Shooting in New Jersey Involving Police OfficerA 23 year old Pine Beach police officer has been suspended without pay, arrested for drunk driving, and could face criminal charges for a shooting incident that occurred shortly before 6:00 am on Friday, January 16, 2015 in Lacey Township, NJ. The Ocean County Prosecutor's Office is investigating the shooting and has indicated that the shooting may have been accidental.
- Which Is Cheaper, Execution or Life in Prison Without Parole?It is an age old question that many of us have debated at one point or another: should executions be legal? Are they an effective deterrent and means of punishment, or is it an expensive and anachronistic practice from a less civilized time? Regardless of where you come down on the debate, one key factor that always seems to come up is cost. So, which is cheaper: execution or life in prison without parole?
- What Are the Laws Against Looting?After a natural catastrophe, riots, terrorist attack, or other devastating event, it is not uncommon for some members of society to take to the streets and begin taking almost anything they want. Sometimes looters only take necessities, like food, water, and toilet paper, but more often than not, looters are taking items of value like televisions, computers, jewelery, etc. How does the law deal with this and what are a person's rights when trying to prevent looting?
- What is a Wrongful Death Claim?Whenever someone dies it is normal for the survivors to want to find an explanation and a person to blame. Unfortunately, in some cases, nobody is to blame, and it was just that person's time. But, in other cases, when the death could have been avoided and someone else was in a position to prevent it, a wrongful death may have occurred.
- African American Women Disproportionately At Risk For Death by Domestic ViolenceDomestic violence can happen anywhere and is not bound by race, religion, or socio-economic status. But, recent studies show that African American women are at three times the risk of experiencing a lethal domestic violence event than any other racial groups in America. Indeed, domestic violence murders are among the leading causes of death of black women ages 15 to 35.
- Washington Shipyard Shooting Stirs Debate Over Second Amendment Right to Bear ArmsOn Monday, September 16, 2013, Aaron Alexis opened fire in the Washington Naval Shipyard, killing 12 naval and civilian personnel before he was ultimately killed himself by law enforcement. However, much to the surprise of the general public, the weapon that Alexis used to kill 12 innocent people was legal, since when he purchased it, Alexis had no record of either a misdemeanor or felony conviction.
- Can Texting While Driving Lead to a Murder ChargeOn February 20, 2011, a teenage driver was sending a text message when he accidentally swerved across the middle line and killed the driver of a vehicle heading in the opposite direction. The incident was clearly an accident, but was the teen's action of composing text messages while driving so wanton and reckless that it could amount to criminal homicide?

- Euthanasia, Physician Assisted Suicide, Mercy Killing - Justifiable Homicide
Assisted suicide laws around the world are clear in some nations but unclear – if they exist at all – in others. Just because a country has not defined its criminal code on this specific action does not mean all assisters will go free. It is a complicated state of affairs. A great many people instinctively feel that suicide and assisted suicide are such individual acts of freedom and free will that they assume there are no legal prohibitions. This fallacy has brought many people into trouble with the law. While suicide is no longer a crime – and where it is because of a failure to update the law it is not enforced – assistance remains a crime almost everywhere by some statute or other.
- Fetal Homicide - State Laws
The debate over fetal rights is not new to the legislative arena. Every year pro-life and pro-choice advocates vie for the upper hand in this contentious issue. In recent years, states have expanded this debate to include the issue of fetuses killed by violent acts against pregnant women. In some states, legislation has increased the criminal penalties for crimes involving pregnant women. These laws have focused on the harm done to a pregnant woman and the subsequent loss of her pregnancy, but not on the rights of the fetus.

- Vehicular Homicide - Overview
Vehicular homicide (also known as vehicular manslaughter) in most states in the United States, is a crime. In general, it involves death that results from the negligent operation of a vehicle, or more so a result from driving whilst committing an unlawful act that does not amount to a felony. In the Model Penal Code there is no separate category of vehicular homicide, and vehicular homicides that involve negligence. Both are included in the overall category of negligent homicide.[1][2] It can be compared to the offence of dangerous driving causing death in other countries.
