Hi. This morning, after making a phone call, I received a phone call in return. I had asked a very serious question. In order to not give away too much governmental intelligence to foreign countries or foreign agents and/or terrorists, I was very politely advised to remove one of my post entries. I shall not advertise, if you will, which one it is, I shall just remove it promptly. Once, a woman held a discussion with me, over the computer, and mentioned that I had removed a posting. I wrote I did not. I also informed you all of how I operate. I mentioned that, due to settings, that have been changed on several occasions, some postings may be found under "older posts" at the bottom of the posting section. Nothing was ever removed, unless duly noted here. So, once again, I will be removing a post. I had also, somewhat recently, removed another item from view. It was with regard to a person I was extremely nice to (perhaps too nice), and I gave him a dedication. He really truly does not fit that title, if you will, so, I had taken that down, as well. Thank you for your time. -SDRoads

I think it's great that Olivia Newton-John got to play alongside one Mr. Gene Kelly when in the movie Xanadu. It's like when history meets the future. Sadly, Gene died in 1996, but, Olivia is still going strong. I remember this movie from a child, became a singer because of it... before that, I was more of a dancer. I remembered somethings about the movie, but, did not realize until today that those two were on the big Golden Screen together. Check out the movie, if you haven't already seen it... years ago. It's a good film. And it can't hurt to see it again. Just pop some corn, make some ice~T, pop in the movie, put your feet up, and relax.

Court Rejects Death Penalty For Raping Children


Post #1 of the day:
By MARK SHERMAN, Associated Press Writer
27 minutes ago


WASHINGTON - The Supreme Court on Wednesday outlawed executions of people convicted of raping a child.

In a 5-4 vote, the court said the Louisiana law allowing the death penalty to be imposed in such cases violates the Constitution's ban on cruel and unusual punishment.

"The death penalty is not a proportional punishment for the rape of a child," Justice Anthony Kennedy wrote in his majority opinion. His four liberal colleagues joined him, while the four more conservative justices dissented.

There has not been an execution in the United States for a crime that did not also involve the death of the victim in 44 years.

Patrick Kennedy, 43, was sentenced to death for the rape of his 8-year-old stepdaughter in Louisiana. He is one of two people in the United States, both in Louisiana, who have been condemned to death for a rape that was not also accompanied by a killing.

The Supreme Court banned executions for rape in 1977 in a case in which the victim was an adult woman.

Forty-five states ban the death penalty for any kind of rape, and the other five states allow it for child rapists. Montana, Oklahoma, South Carolina and Texas allow executions in such cases if the defendant had previously been convicted of raping a child.

The court struggled over how to apply standards laid out in decisions barring executions for the mentally retarded and people younger than 18 when they committed murder. In those cases, the court cited trends in the states away from capital punishment.

In this case, proponents of the Louisiana law said the trend was toward the death penalty, a point mentioned by Justice Samuel Alito in his dissent.

"The harm that is caused to the victims and to society at large by the worst child rapists is grave," Alito wrote. "It is the judgment of the Louisiana lawmakers and those in an increasing number of other states that these harms justify the death penalty."

But Kennedy said the absence of any executions for rape and the small number of states that allow it demonstrate "there is a national consensus against capital punishment for the crime of child rape."

Kennedy also acknowledged that the decision had to come to terms with "the years of long anguish that must be endured by the victim of child rape."

Still, Kennedy concluded that in cases of crimes against individuals — as opposed to treason, for example — "the death penalty should not be expanded to instances where the victim's life was not taken."

The decision does not affect the imposition of the death penalty for other crimes that do not involve murder, including treason and espionage, he said.

"It looks like a smashing victory on all fronts for us," said Denise LeBoeuf, a longtime capital defense attorney from New Orleans.

The girl's mother said, "We don't talk about that" and hung up.

The author of the Louisiana law, former Republican state Rep. Pete Schneider, said even opponents of the death penalty told him they would kill anyone who raped their children. "When are you going to have the courage to stand up for what's right for all of the people — but especially the children under 12 that have been brutally raped by monsters?" Schneider said, directing his comments to the justices in Wednesday's majority.

The last executions for crimes other than murder took place in 1964, according to a database maintained by the Death Penalty Information Center.

Ronald Wolfe, 34, died in Missouri's gas chamber on May 8, 1964 for rape. James Coburn was electrocuted in Alabama on Sept. 4 of that year for robbery.

Patrick Kennedy was convicted in 2003 of raping his stepdaughter at their home in Harvey, La., outside New Orleans. The girl initially told police she was sorting Girl Scout cookies in the garage when two boys assaulted her.

Police arrested Kennedy a couple of weeks after the March 1998 rape, but more than 20 months passed before the girl identified him as her attacker.

His defense attorney at the time argued that blood testing was inconclusive and that the victim was pressured to change her story.

The Louisiana Supreme Court upheld the sentence, saying that "short of first-degree murder, we can think of no other non-homicide crime more deserving" of the death penalty. State Chief Justice Pascal Calogero noted in dissent that the U.S. high court already had made clear that capital punishment could not be imposed without the death of the victim, except possibly for espionage or treason.

A second Louisiana man, Richard Davis was sentenced to death in December for repeatedly raping a 5-year-old girl in Caddo Parish, which includes Shreveport. Local prosecutor Lea Hall told jurors: "Execute this man. Justice has a sword and this sword needs to swing today."

The high court's decision leaves intact Kennedy's conviction, but will lead to a new sentence.

The case is Kennedy v. Louisiana, 07-343.

Post #5 of the day:

Small Mo. towns fight to contain Mississippi River By CHRISTOPHER LEONARD, Associated Press Writer
1 hour, 44 minutes ago



FOLEY, Mo. - For the second time in 15 years, Keith Aubuchon found himself packing his belongings and evacuating his home to escape a "100-year" flood of the Mississippi River. He returned and remodeled his house after the flood of 1993. This time, he doesn't know if it will be worth coming back.

"This is my second flood. I don't think there will be a third," Aubuchon said as he drove a pickup truck loaded with a washing machine and other belongings out of his subdivision. Floodwaters rapidly filled the roads, yards and gullies behind him just hours after a levee breached north of Foley. Authorities estimate much of the small town will be flooded by the weekend.

The weather might not help, with forecasters predicting showers and scattered thunderstorms in Missouri and Iowa both Friday and Saturday before the precipitation moves out Sunday.

Three Mississippi River levees broke Thursday in Lincoln County, sending a creeping wave of water toward Foley and causing more concern in nearby Winfield.

The river was overflowing 90 percent of the levees in eastern Lincoln County, and at least four more breaches were expected to aggravate the flooding overnight, said Lincoln County Emergency Management spokesman Andy Binder.

While the situation worsened in Lincoln County, it improved slightly elsewhere along the river after the National Weather Service significantly lowered crest predictions. The revisions came after several levee breaks in Illinois, including one on Wednesday near Meyer that potentially could inundate 17,000 acres of farmland with water that otherwise would have been flowing south.

That means many towns along the river won't see the record-level flood crests they expected. The new prediction shows St. Louis cresting at 37.3 feet on Friday, well short of the 49.58-foot mark in 1993.

But National Weather Service meteorologist Jim Kramper said river towns aren't safe yet.

"There will still be a lot of places with major flooding," Kramper said. "Even at the levels we're expecting now, a lot of places are threatened."

The relief for some river towns came at a cost for communities where levees failed. The first levee breached in Lincoln County on Wednesday near Winfield, about 50 miles north of St. Louis, followed Thursday by the series of breaks that spilled water into sparsely populated areas, Binder said.

The southward flows were expected to put increasing pressure on a series of inland levees protecting the towns of Winfield and Elsberry. To help raise the levees an additional 2 feet, dozens of volunteers filled tens of thousands of sandbags in Winfield. The bags were piled onto pallets and shipped to the levees where roughly 150 National Guard members stacked them on top of the existing walls.

"It's about the most rewarding thing I've done in a long time," said David Hays, a computer programmer from Chesterfield, Mo., who took time off work to help fill sandbags. "I was filling sandbags until I couldn't move my arms. Then I held bags until my shoulders hurt. Then I became a supervisor."

In Iowa, where residents are mopping up after the deluge in Des Moines and Iowa City, President Bush surveyed the flood's aftermath on Thursday and assured residents and rescuers alike that he is listening to their concerns.

"Obviously, to the extent we can help immediately, we will help," said Bush, still mindful of criticism that the government reacted slowly to Hurricane Katrina three years ago.

"You'll come back better," the president said. "Sometimes it's hard to see it."

Bush was in Europe when tornadoes hit and heavy rains sent rivers surging over their banks, killing at least 24 people, the majority in Iowa. He made a point to try to show his concern while overseas and traveled to Iowa just two days after returning.

"I really don't have much of an opinion of his coming," said Lashawn Baker, 33, whose family was just starting to clean her flooded home in a southwest Cedar Rapids neighborhood. "It took him a long time to get to New Orleans and he didn't help any of those people, so I don't think he's going to do anything to help Cedar Rapids now that he's here."

At the briefing in Cedar Rapids, Bush, his shirt sleeves rolled up, told local officials that he came "just to listen to what you've got on your mind."

Noting that several hundred federal emergency workers were fanning across Iowa, he added: "That ought to help the people in the smaller communities know that somebody is there to listen to them."

The sluggish federal response when Katrina devastated the Gulf Coast in 2005 was judged woefully inadequate and brought heavy criticism of Bush and FEMA. It also brought sensitivity on the part of federal officials each time disaster has struck since to show that things were working better.

FEMA Administrator R. David Paulison accompanied Bush to Iowa on Air Force One and praised the "great coordination" between federal, state and local leaders.

Paulison said one thing FEMA was doing differently was working better with other partners — the Army Corps of Engineers and even Wal-Mart — to distribute supplies. The agency also was placing stocks of sandbags and other supplies in states or towns where flooding hadn't hit yet or material had not been requested, just to be ready, he said.

Trainer to Congress: Racing is ‘chemical warfare’
By JOSEPH WHITE, AP Sports Writer
10 hours, 0 minutes ago


AP - Jun 18, 3:04 pm EDT 1 of 9 Horse Racing Gallery WASHINGTON (AP)—Testifying before Congress, Hall of Fame trainer Jack Van Berg summed up thoroughbred racing’s woes in two words: “chemical warfare.”

“The present rules permitting the use of steroids and other drugs have comprised the integrity of horse racing and has been a major factor in attendance and for interest falling to an all-time low,” Van Berg told the House Subcommittee on Commerce, Trade, and Consumer Protection. “Crowds at most of these tracks, you could shoot a cannon through and not hit anybody.”

The use of performance-enhancing drugs took a big hit at Thursday’s hearing, which was called after Eight Belles broke down and was euthanized at the Kentucky Derby last month. All of the witnesses spoke in favor of banning such substances, although the consensus was far from clear on how best to achieve that goal as well as other reforms in a sport lacking an authoritative, central governing body.

“We need a league and a commissioner. We need action, please. Congress, help,” said Jess Jackson, owner of 2007 Horse of the Year Curlin.


“The last thing this industry needs is another layer of bureaucracy. A ‘Department of Horse-land Security’ funded by yet another tax on our long-suffering customers is not what we need,” said Alex Waldrop, president of the National Thoroughbred Racing Association.

In between those opposing points of view was Jockey Club president Alan Marzelli, who favored the establishment of a national governing body without government intervention.

The congressman most proactive in his interest in the sport—Rep. Ed Whitfield of Kentucky, the subcommittee’s ranking Republican—suggested that Congress was ready to act. Whitfield said lawmakers can use leverage under the Interstate Horseracing Act of 1978, which grants simulcasting rights that now account for much of the industry’s profits. A law could be passed, for example, that withholds simulcast money from states that don’t adhere to federally mandated guidelines.

“Mr. Waldrop has the very best intentions, but he does not have the authority to do anything,” Whitfield said. “We are going to be looking at some legislation to deal with this.”

Deteriorating bloodlines, due to inbreeding, were also discussed as a cause for concern. Witnesses noted that horses wear out much more quickly than the thoroughbreds of past decades.

Illinois Democrat Jan Schakowsky, the subcommittee’s vice chairwoman, said Eight Belles was a “genetic disaster waiting to happen,” a point she made by displaying a chart of what she called the horse’s “fragile bloodline.”

Others pointed to new surveys, including one by The Associated Press, that have discovered thousands of racing-related horse deaths in recent years.

“We are a rudderless ship,” said longtime breeder Arthur Hancock. “The way we’re going, we will all end up on the rocks.”

The lack of conformity in the sport is a result of its lack of structure. Racing is essentially run by 38 sets of rules—one for each state in which racing takes place.

“Imagine if the NFL were set up to permit each state to field as many pro teams as it wanted, play as many games as it wanted all year long, and set its own individual football rules. … Horse racing has been set up in this fashion,” ESPN analyst Randy Moss said.

Jockey Club president Marzelli offered hope by pointing out that its safety panel two days ago called for a sweeping ban on anabolic steroids. He expects all horse racing states to adopt the ban.


Witnesses for House Commerce, …

AP - Jun 19, 1:30 pm EDT
“We are confident that 2008 will be the last year in which anabolic steroids will be permitted in our sport during training and racing,” Marzelli said.

That would have an effect on the methods used by the trainer of Big Brown, the Triple Crown favorite that finished a stunning last in the Belmont Stakes on June 7. Rick Dutrow, who gave a legal steroid to Big Brown through April, was expected tell Congress his side of the story in person, but was a no-show.

Dutrow on Wednesday told the AP that he was too ill to attend, but he remained on the witness list—there was even a symbolic name card for him at the table—because he apparently failed to tell those in charge.

“I’m disappointed by his absence,” Schakowsky said. “I’m disappointed that he did not feel the need to notify the subcommittee of his decision.”

Dutrow did provide a statement in which he discussed his checkered record, including his use of anabolic steroids on horses.

“My observation is that it helps the horses eat better,” the statement said. “Their coats brighten. They’re more alert. It helps them train.”

Dutrow added that “if steroids are banned in the United States, we’ll stop using them.”

Mystery Solved After Nearly Eight Decades


Post #1 of the day:
Horse mystery, 75 years later
A famous racehorse suddenly died in 1932, and now forensic scientists know how.

Here's the answer:

Phar Lap died of arsenic poisoning
Jun 19, 12:20 am EDT

MELBOURNE, Australia (AP)—Forensic scientists say champion Australian gelding Phar Lap died of arsenic poisoning, solving a mystery that has intrigued the horse racing world for more than 75 years.

Phar Lap won 37 of his 51 starts before his death in mysterious circumstances at Menlo Park in California in April 1932. Days before his death, he won Mexico’s Agua Caliente Handicap, which was then the richest horse race in North America.

Arsenic poisoning has long been suspected as the cause of Phar Lap’s death, but confirmation had been lacking until Thursday when researchers Dr. Ivan Kempson of the University of South Australia and Dermot Henry, manager of Natural Science Collections at Museum Victoria, released the findings of their forensic investigation.

Kempson took six hairs from Phar Lap’s mane and analyzed them at the Advanced Photon Source Synchrotron in Chicago, finding that in the 40 hours before Phar Lap’s death the horse had ingested a massive dose of arsenic.

Phar Lap’s mounted hide is on display at the Melbourne Museum, while his heart is kept at the National Museum of Australia in Canberra.

“We can’t speculate where the arsenic came from, but it was easily accessible at the time,” Henry said.

Notebooks kept by Phar Lap’s handler Tommy Woodcock, obtained by Museum Victoria, show the horse was administered tonics and ointments containing both arsenic and strychnine. An accidental overdose has long been considered the likely cause of death.
