BERLIN (AP) — Dead letter drops. Fake papers with cover stories to match. Secret orders by radio from Moscow.
The accusations read like something out of the Cold War but the charges against a couple who went on trial Tuesday in the German city of Stuttgart stem primarily from the decades after the 1989 fall of the Berlin Wall.
Andreas and Heidrun Anschlag — only the fake names on the fake Austrian passports they used to enter Germany are known — are charged with giving Russia's foreign intelligence service information on German, EU and NATO security policies and more general details on Russian-German relations.
The pair, thought to be in their 40s or 50s, denied the espionage charges in Stuttgart state court but refused to make any other statements Tuesday.
German officials won't divulge details other than those in the indictment, but the Der Spiegel magazine reported that the same U.S. mole in the Russian intelligence service who tipped off the FBI about a ring of sleeper spies based in the U.S. also divulged the existence of the couple in Germany. The information from Col. Alexander Poteyev, who Moscow convicted in absentia last year of high treason and desertion, was then passed along to German intelligence officials, Spiegel reported.
The Russian Foreign Ministry in Moscow and U.S. Justice Department spokesman Dean Boyd in Washington both declined to comment on the case.
Like the U.S. cell, Andreas and Heidrun Anschlag were able to work comfortably in a Western culture and pass unnoticed.
According to the indictment, Andreas arrived in Germany in 1988, the year before the fall of the Berlin Wall. Heidrun arrived in 1990, the year Germany was reunified. Both claimed to be Austrian citizens of South American background, prosecutors said.
"With this backstory, underpinned by false Austrian passports, they built a normal existence within society to disguise their intelligence-gathering operations," prosecutors said.
They were charged with spying over 20 years until their arrest in October 2011. Prosecutors said between October 2008 and August 2011 the two were in contact with a third agent, who provided them with documents about EU and NATO operations from the Netherlands.
A Dutch Foreign Ministry employee, whose name has not been released, was arrested last March on suspicion of being the contact person who stole the information. The employee is due to go on trial there later this month.
Andreas Anschlag then passed the information on to the SVR — the main successor to Russia's KGB — using secret drop-off locations, known as dead letter boxes, prosecutors alleged. It was not clear how sensitive the stolen material was, although the Dutch employee has been charged with "preparing to spread state secrets."
"During the duration of their intelligence activities, the accused were in regular contact with their handlers," prosecutors said in their indictment. "Their instructions were received mainly through a special agents' radio. Their reports were transmitted to the intelligence via satellite. They also used an Internet video portal for hidden messages."
For their work, the couple received at least €100,000 ($135,000) a year in recent years, prosecutors said. If convicted, they could face up to 10 years in prison each.
A German federal agent will testify at the next court session.
Associated Press writers Michael Corder in The Hague, Nataliya Vasilyeva in Moscow and Pete Yost in Washington contributed to this report.

Sparks fly during council meeting
Mayor Bobbie Prince and District 6 City Councilman Robert Williamson walked out of a Feb. 5 Port Arthur City Council meeting after District 5 City Councilman and Mayor Pro Tem Willie "Bae" Lewis Jr. began questioning City Manager Floyd Johnson about travel expenses during a consent agenda discussion over expense reports.
Lewis explained to Johnson that prior to any travel, in this case by Prince and City Secretary Sherri Bellard, all council members are to be notified. Lewis said that Johnson's staff was not enforcing the city travel ordinance (6186) that required this notification and that he was not notified of the travel by Prince and Bellard, nor were other council members.
"You need to instruct your staff not to violate this city ordinance," Councilman Lewis said to the city manager. Councilman Williamson called for a point of order at this point in the discussion and accused Lewis of being off topic from consent agenda item C – Expense Reports.
"He's off topic; that's not on the agenda," Williamson said.
"His point is not valid," Lewis said. "The city travel ordinance governs everything."
"Are you going to get back on topic?" Prince asked Lewis.
"I'm on topic," he responded.
Lewis then instructed Johnson to get his staff in line and follow the ordinance. The mayor then suggested taking a vote on Lewis's point of order and Lewis asked the mayor, "What is your problem?"
Williamson informed Lewis that he had no authority to instruct the city manager and that it comes from the vote of council. The mayor then ordered a five-minute break, and Lewis said that after the break, "We're going to start right back where we started."
After the break, things became even more heated between Prince and Lewis.
Lewis continued to press Johnson about his staff not following protocol, and the mayor warned Lewis several times to stay in order. City attorney Valecia R. Tizeno then suggested that the council get back on topic and attempted to move the meeting along, but to no avail.
As Lewis continued to try and discuss the city manager's staff, the mayor continued to call him out of order.
"I could be finished discussing this, if you would just shut up," Lewis told Prince. Williamson then accused Lewis of violating the decorum ordinance by making disparaging remarks about council members. Shortly afterward, around 7:10 p.m., Prince and Williamson walked out. Tinzeno then had to stop the meeting because there weren't enough council members for a quorum.
"Before I came on board Councilman (Raymond) Scott and Councilman (Harold) Doucette questioned (the mayor) about notification," Lewis said in an interview with The Examiner. "She told them I'm going to go wherever the hell I want to. She just took off. She's abused credit cards too. She's out of control. All travel is handled through the finance department — checks and per diem."
According to Lewis, Johnson asked him what his staff had to with it. Lewis said that the finance department falls under the city manager's authority.
"His staff cut the checks and pay the hotel bills," Lewis said.
The mayor declined to comment during the break in the meeting, and the city manager's office was unavailable for comment as of press time.
The council meeting reconvened around 7:30 p.m. with Prince and Williamson rejoining.
Council approves creation of new emergency service district
In other business, the Port Arthur council approved the creation of the Jefferson County Emergency Service District No. 4, which will bring in funds for the Labelle-Fannett and Cheek volunteer fire departments and help pay for operations like water and electricity.
"(The district) would encompass all the areas that are serviced by the Labelle-Fannett and Cheek volunteer fire departments, said Joshua Heinz, attorney from Benckenstein & Oxford, the firm representing the fire departments. "The ESD is created as a political subdivision which can levy property tax, and the tax revenues can be used solely for the purposes of fire protection, fire prevention and also emergency medical services."
Heinz said that this funding is essential to the two volunteer fire departments.
"These volunteer fire departments scrape by as it is to generate enough funding through donations and fundraisers just to basically keep in operation," he said. "There's no way on a volunteer firefighters budget to afford really up-to-date certified equipment. They basically live off grants to help them buy bunker gear (a firefighter's outer protective clothing, costing around $4,000). If funds aren't available through grants, then they just get what they can, which is usually hand-me-downs from different municipalities that are phasing out equipment."
Heinz said the proposal to create the ESD needed approval from not only Port Arthur but also Beaumont and Taylor Landing. All three municipalities have now granted approval.
"Since the proposed district's boundaries would include portions of both the city of Beaumont and Port Arthur's extraterritorial jurisdiction (ETJ), which extend five miles outside of their city limits, the petitioners are required to get consent from the cities for their ETJs to be included within the proposed district."
The creation of the ESD is a win for the cities, Heinz said.
"By consenting to those areas being in the ESD, (the cities) will be providing those citizens with the opportunity to get better funding for better fire protection," he added.
Heinz said now that the proposal has been approved by the cities, it will go to public hearing Monday, Feb.11, at the Jefferson County Commissioners Court.
"The public hearing gives anyone who has an interest in the ESD to come in and voice their opinion for or against its creation," Heinz said. "After the public hearing, the commissioner will determine if the creation of the district is feasible."
The ESD is more than feasible, according to Heinz, as it would generate more in tax revenue than it would cost to produce. If the commissioners court decides that the creation is feasible, an election will be ordered for May 11 when voters in the proposed district will get a chance to vote to approve or deny the ESD.

There's been a rush incidents where confidential information posted by people on Facebook groups has been shared with employees of schools and local authorities.
I'm not going to comment on the reasons for this; only the effects and how it can be avoided.
It has obviously caused a lot of difficulty for the people involved because no matter where you post stuff on Facebook, even if it is a private group, it can be shared (screenshots are so much easier to take than ever before.) It is also linked to your Facebook profile, meaning that you can be identified - as can your location and your children.
The anger that this has provoked is pretty spectacular. Some of the calmest and most controlled online people I know are spitting blood; I also know another smaller Facebook group that is hosting what can only be described as a war after someone took a screenshot of a Facebook post and shared it with a classroom teacher and now action is being taken by the school against the family.
How to avoid it:
1. Don't post anything on Facebook about school, EHCP, work with local authorities, medical matters, or even legal queries. Use Facebook for its intended purpose: social interaction;
2. Use an anonymous forum name here on ASDf. Don't post any identifying information. This is obviously impossible on Facebook, so don't use Facebook for SEN-related support;
3. The old (some might say ancient) rule here on ASDf still stands: As long as the school/LA/professionals concerned cannot be identified, you can say what you want. Keep it absolutely anonymous so nothing can be traced back to you.

The ASDf facebook page has always seemed a gentler and more reasonable place than some of the other facebook groups I'm in, probably because of the calming influence of our excellent admin. Deliberately betraying a confidence is a terrible thing to do, but I didn't see the original post or know why it was shared inappropriately (I am in one of the FB groups affected). Thank you for the reminder that the Internet is a shadowy place and discretion is wise, even when emotions ti high.
Posted 07 May 2016 - 07:32 PM
Thanks for the reminder. Saw Facebook used last year in this type of way and really put me off sharing anything personal on groups on there.
Posted 08 May 2016 - 11:08 PM
I always feel uncomfortable posting anything sensitive on Facebook so this is a good reminder why.

Fox's Batman prequel series "Gotham" has cast two major characters — Bruce Wayne and Selina Kyle, the young people who eventually become Batman and Catwoman.
David Mazouz, 14, will play a preteen Bruce Wayne who lives a solitary life after his wealthy parents are murdered.
"Serious and soulful, young Bruce relies on the guidance and protection of Alfred Pennyworth and James Gordon," his official character description reads.
Mazouz is best known for his role as an autistic but gifted boy in the Kiefer Sutherland-starring Fox series "Touch." His "Gotham" character Bruce Wayne, of course, eventually becomes Batman in DC Comics lore, but the series is focused on the origin of Gordon, Fox notes, not the origin of Batman.
Acting newcomer Camren Bicondova will play Selina Kyle, the girl who eventually becomes Catwoman, but in "Gotham" Selina is a teenaged orphan who is "suspicious and wholly unpredictable," according to her character description. "A street thief and skilled pickpocket, she's dangerous when cornered."
Bicondova, oft-nicknamed "Cam Cam," is best known for her background in dance, appearing on "America's Best Dance Crew," in the film "Battlefield America" and in numerous music videos.
Mazouz and Bicondova join a cast that includes Ben McKenzie, known for roles in "Southland" and "The O.C.," as Jim Gordon; Donal Logue ("Sons of Anarchy") as Gordon's partner and mentor Det. Harvey Bullock; Jada Pinkett Smith as original character Fish Mooney, a sadistic gangster boss and nightclub owner; Robin Lord Taylor ("Another Earth," "Accepted") as Oswald Cobblepot, the orphaned outcast who works for Fish Mooney and eventually becomes the gentleman villain the Penguin; Sean Pertwee ("Alan Partridge," "Event Horizon") as tough ex-marine and Wayne Manor butler Alfred Pennyworth; Zabryna Guevara ("Burn Notice," "3 lbs.") as Capt. Essen, Gordon's boss at the Gotham City Police Department homicide squad; and Erin Richards as Gordon's fiancée Barbara Kean, an emergency room doctor.
"Gotham" will be led by writer and executive producer Bruno Heller, the creative mind behind "The Mentalist" and "Rome." Danny Cannon ("Nikita") will direct and executive produce the pilot.

8 Brazen Bites We Tried at Burger Bash
Day two of the New York City Wine & Food Festival has just wrapped, and I'm not sure how I did it, but I managed to survive one of the weekend's flagship events, the Burger Bash. This year's fête, which was hosted by comedienne Whoopi Goldberg (regular host Rachael Ray was out of the country on vacation), featured 21 different burgers, mostly from the New York area. Not only did I manage to survive the impressively big bovine lineup, but I came out on top: nearly ever contender I bit into was so creative that it left me with a takeaway that's guaranteed to make me a better burger builder, too. See the burgers — and their best takeaways — when you keep clicking.

January 15. 2013 10:38PM
A Hooksett man has been arrested on six charges of felonious sexual assault, along with other charges.
Robert Luicha, 48 of Hooksett, is being charged with six felony counts of aggravated sexual assault (one for each assault, according to a Hooksett Police press release), as well as one count each of sexual assault, false imprisonment, and simple assault.
Luicha is being held on $100,000 cash bail and will arraigned at the Hooksett District court today at 9 a.m.
Hooksett Police began their investigation Jan. 12 after the victim, a woman, reported the incident which had occurred about a week before at her residence on Pine Street in Hooksett. Based on her testimony and the subsequent investigation, police felt they had enough probable cause to move ahead on the warrants.
Police stated that the victim allegedly attempted to leave the room at some point during the assault and Luicha would not allow her to, leading to a false imprisonment charge.
Police also noted that the incident "wasn't random" and "there's no danger to the public." The victim and the alleged assailant knew each other.
The Bedford Police Department assisted in Luicha's arrest.

Youngster Neal Maupay got the winner as Nice came from behind to beat Evian and move into fifth as Lille failed to win again and bottom side Nancy faltered
Rennes bounced back from their controversial midweek defeat to beat high-flying Valenciennes 2-0 at Stade de la Route de Lorient on Friday evening.
The hosts took the lead inside five minutes as Julien Feret took advantage of some sloppy defending to stroke the ball under goalkeeper Nicolas Penneteau.
Jonathan Pitroipa had a goal ruled out for handball, but the visitors were distinctly profligate in front of goal, with Vincent Aboubakar slammed a shot against the post.
The match was won by Frederic Antoinetti's side in the 71st minute as Feret played a sumptuous ball in towards Pitroipa, who ensured all three points would stay in Brittany.
Olympique de Marseille picked up their seventh away win in ten games, as they saw off Toulouse to move second at Stadium Municipal on Saturday.
In a tempestuous encounter in south-western France, the hosts would go a man down early on as Cheikh M'Bengue was sent off for a rash challenge on Morgan Amalfitano.
Marseille, despite having a numerical advantage, struggled, with Jordan Ayew and Mathieu Valbuena would see efforts saved by the brilliant Ali Ahamada. Elie Baup's men would still be awarded a penalty on 40 minutes as Franck Tabanou fouled Jordan Ayew in the box, but the France Under-21 goalkeeper saved Andre Ayew's penalty.
Tabanou was also sent off a minute before half-time for a crude challenge, and it needed a fantastic curling effort from Andre-Pierre Gignac against his former club to hand Marseille a nervy victory.
Troyes picked up their second win of the season in a thrilling 3-2 encounter against Ajaccio at the Stade de l'Aube on Saturday.
The hosts, whose only previous victory this season came in the form of a shock 1-0 triumph over Marseille in October, ran riot, dominating the first half.
Stephane Darbion opened the scoring on 34 minutes, before Benjamin Nivet made it 2-0 five minutes later, and Fabien Camus rounding off a resounding first period with a goal just before the break.
The stunned Corsicans upped the ante in the second half, though, and Paul Lasne got a goal back in the 90th minute, before Johan Cavalli ensured a nervy ending with a second in injury time.
Brest picked up their first away win of the season with a come-from-behind 2-1 victory away to struggling Sochaux in Montbeliard.
Ryad Boudebouz and Charlison Benschop were particularly active early on, both seeing fine efforts being denied by the goalkeepers in the pick of the first half action.
Boudebouz linked up well with Cedric Bakambu to give Eric Hely's men the lead, though Kamel Chafni restored parity just minutes later.
However, 12 minutes from time, Israel international Eden Ben Basat finished from Benschop's pass to score his first goal away from Stade Francis Le-Ble and the club's first away win.
Montpellier's resurgence in Ligue 1 continued with a fantastic 4-0 victory over strugglers Bastia at Stade de la Mosson on Saturday.
Bastia endured a woeful week off the pitch after being handed a stadium ban, but even they couldn't envisage the manner in which they fell behind after just 12 minutes.
Marco Estrada scored a contender for goal of the season as he latched onto a loose ball with an outrageous volley from 35 yards to beat Landry Bonnefoi.
John Utaka doubled the champions' lead with a neat finish after the break, before Younes Belhanda converted after great work by Daniel Congre soon after.
Anthony Mounier rounded off the win with a fine volley, as Rene Girard celebrated being named coach of the year with a superb victory.
Nice earned moved as high as fourth place with a fantastic 3-2 victory over Evian, who let slip a 2-goal lead at Stade du Ray.
Poor goalkeeping earned Yannick Sagbo a goal inside three minutes, after Saber Khelifa had seen his effort saved.
It was 2-0 soon after as Cedric Barbosa took advantage of acres of space afforded to him by defenders to nonchalantly fire past David Ospina.
The comeback was started by Dario Cvitanich, who produced a brilliant lob to beat Bertrand Laquait, before bagging his 10th league goal with a fine finish after Valentin Eysseric's assist.
The winner would come from an unlikely source, 16-year-old Neal Maupay, who became the second youngest goalscorer in the history of the French top flight.
Lille's hopes of catching up with the leaders took another blow as they were frustratingly held to a 1-1 draw by Reims at Stade Auguste-Delaune.
The newly-promoted side took the lead early on as Anthony Weber stabbed the ball home after some poor defending from a corner.
For all of Rudi Garcia's side's efforts, it took them until midway through the second half to poach an equaliser. Dimitri Payet was played in by Salomon Kalou, and the winger diverted the ball past the goalkeeper.
Lille now sit 11th, nine points behind Lyon and Marseille, with Reims sitting two points clear of the relegation zone.
Bottom side Nancy picked up their sixth consecutive Ligue 1 draw, but once more threw away a lead as they were held by ten-man Bordeaux on Sunday.
Djamel Bakar put the hosts ahead with a header after a fine attacking move, soon after Yohan Mollo's corner was headed onto the bar by Sebastien Puygrenier.
Andre Biyogo-Poko was then shown a second yellow card for a shocking tackle on Massadio Haidara, as the hosts maintained their good standing at Stade Marcel Picot.
Nevertheless, they couldn't keep up with a resurgent Bordeaux side in the second half, and Henri Saivet slotted home Fahid Ben Khalfallah's cut-back.
Saint-Etienne's recent good run was ended by an efficient Lorient side who replaced them in fourth place with a 2-0 victory at Stade Geoffrey Guichard.
The goals came in the first half as Benjamin Corgnet slid through a fine attacking pass up front to Jeremie Aliadiere, who slid the ball past Stephane Ruffier.
Six minutes before half-time, the visitors doubled their advantage through Alain Traore, who finished with aplomb after a great delivery from the right wing.
Les Verts failed to seriously trouble at the other end, as they slip to seventh place in an increasingly tight top-half of the table.

In May, I picked up three storm windows that were exactly the same. I set them aside and planned to build a cold frame with them, but then I came across a story on Twitter about upright cold frames and I was off and running with a new plan. I wanted one!
Summer came and went and I was so busy that this project fell by the wayside. This weekend, I gathered all the windows, scrap lumber I had lying around and my tools and began to plan a structure around the size of the windows. It was challenging because I only had a couple of 2x4s to work with, the rest of the wood was all sorts of sizes and dimensions as well as rough cuts. If I had it to do over again, I would have bought two more 2x4s and saved myself a lot of time and agony over how to piece this thing together! That being said, I did manage to do it all by myself and wound up with a pretty sweet little baby greenhouse to boot!
|See what you can do with 3 little 'ol windows?
|Isn't she a pretty baby greenhouse? I'm so happy!
|All my stuff is well used...
|Don't you just love mason jars???
|I used a pallet as the base for the greenhouse.
Happy September everyone! Can you believe summer is almost over??!

The Royal Wedding went off without a hitch as Prince William and Kate Middleton exchanged their "I do's" at London's Westminster Abbey.
The Queen released a statement announcing that His Royal Highness Prince William had earned the additional titles Duke of Cambridge, Earl of Strathearn and Baron Carrickfergus. Middleton will be known as Her Royal Highness, the Duchess of Cambridge.
Check out photos from the Royal Wedding of William and Catherine
The best-kept secret of the event: the identity of the designer of Middleton's dress. Ultimately, Kate chose Sarah Burton at Alexander McQueen. The ivory gown has a low-cut front (for a princess, at least) and a lace bodice overlay. Intricate details of the dress can be found on the official Royal Wedding website.
Celebrity guests included David and Victoria Beckham, Elton John and David Furnish, Guy Ritchie and Rowan Atkinson. Victoria, who is expecting her fourth child this summer, wore a blousy navy dress she designed and a matching Philip Treacy hat. Her husband donned a gray Ralph Lauren suit with his Order of the British Empire medal pinned to his lapel. John went uncharacteristically traditional in a traditional morning coat, a yellow vest and purple tie.
After the ceremony, Prince William and his bride hopped into a horse and carriage and made their way past thousands of well-wishers to Buckingham Palace for their first official celebration as man and wife, a canapés-and-cocktails reception before a more intimate dinner later.
Kathy Griffin to roast royal wedding for TV Guide Network
At precisely 1:25 p.m. London time, Prince William and the Duchess of Cambridge, accompanied by their families, greeted the crowd from the palace balcony. Middleton appeared to say, "Oh, wow!" upon seeing the assembled masses. Soon after, the couple had their first (very short) kiss as a married couple. As if to make up for that inadequate peck, they soon kissed again, just before the Royal Air Force and a Battle of Britain Memorial Flight soared overhead.

Yahoo Inc's board believes Microsoft Corp's unsolicited bid of USD 44.6 billion to acquire Yahoo 'massively undervalues' the company and directors are set to reject the offer, the Wall Street Journal reported on Saturday, citing an unnamed source. Microsoft's USD 31 per share offer fails to take account of the risks that a merger between the world's largest software maker and Yahoo would be rejected by regulators, the paper reported, citing 'a person familiar with the situation'. A spokeswoman for Yahoo, a diversified Internet media company, declined to comment on the proceedings of the company's board of directors.

A 3-year-old girl with special needs is dead and the city of Philadelphia is facing one horrific child abuse investigation. Doctors say when Nathalyz Rivera was rushed to the hospital, she was just 11 pounds and covered in bites. She didn't make it. She'd been starved ... to death.
Now all four of Nathalyz' siblings, including her 3-year-old twin, have been taken from their parents, and those parents -- 30-year-old Carlos Rivera and Carmen Rameriz, 27, have been taken into police custody. There are no charges yet, but considering doctors say the little girl's starvation was akin to the treatment of prisoners in concentration camps, it's safe to say there will be a raft coming down the pike.
The confusing thing: who to charge. And with what.
According to police, Carlos Rivera found little Nathalyz unresponsive and he called Carmen, who showed up with her boyfriend and rushed the 3-year-old, who was born blind and with Down syndrome, to the hospital. She was pronounced dead there.
At the risk of sounding reasonable, what did they expect would happen?
A child abuse specialist familiar with the case told the Philadelphia Inquirer that the girl's condition "doesn't happen to a child in a couple of weeks. Generally, it is a process that takes months and months, or even years of neglect."
Add to that the fact that this poor little girl's body was reportedly covered in insect and rodent bites (as were the bodies of her siblings, who were otherwise relatively OK), and I ask again: what did these parents EXPECT?
For their daughter to be right as rain? For a miracle?
This poor innocent child had been starved. For months or even a year. She was put through unspeakable torture.
A child.
A child with special needs no less.
A 3-year-old who needed her Mommy and Daddy.
She should have been taken to a doctor before all this, not at the end. She should have been protected all along; not suddenly at the end, when it looked like she might be dead.
Cops say Carmen "came and went" from Carlos' home, from the home where Nathalyz lived, and she'd seen the little girl recently, so it looks likely that both parents will be facing some sort of charges -- regardless of Mom's last ditch attempt to seek some sort of medical treatment for the little girl.
What do you make of their decisions at the end? Do you have any sympathy for these parents?

Man Dies After Water Heater Fills Home With Carbon Monoxide
NEW FREEDOM, Pa. (AP) – Authorities in central Pennsylvania say a man died after a malfunctioning water heater filled his home with dangerous levels of carbon monoxide and smoke.
Firefighters arrived Friday evening in Shrewsbury Township following a report of smoke in a house.
They found an unresponsive elderly man in the kitchen. The victim later died at a nearby hospital in York.
Shrewsbury Fire Chief Tony Myers said the smoke was caused by a malfunctioning water heater in the basement. The gas-fired appliance also filled the home with carbon monoxide.
Thanksgiving Fire Leaves Pa. Families Homeless
JOHNSTOWN, Pa. (AP) – Several families are without homes in western Pennsylvania after a Thanksgiving night fire destroyed a small apartment building and water from firefighters' hoses left another home uninhabitable.
No injuries were reported. Fire officials said Friday the fire in Johnstown's Moxham neighborhood started in a vacant duplex. Three buildings were burned down, including two vacant duplexes and an apartment building where about 10 people lived.
Dozens of firefighters from Johnstown and area volunteer companies battled the blaze.
The son of one victim told WJAC-TV that his mother's house next door received so much water damage that it's no longer inhabitable.
Prosecutor Convicted Of Leaving Crash Scene
MEDIA, Pa. (AP) – A former assistant district attorney has been convicted of a misdemeanor in a hit-andrun crash that injured a suburban Philadelphia teenager a year ago.
Jurors in Delaware County deliberated for about 4- 1/2 hours before convicting 32-year-old Michael Donohue on Monday of leaving the scene of an accident, a misdemeanor because jurors said serious bodily injury hadn't resulted.
The judge earlier acquitted Donohue of more serious charges of aggravated assault and driving under the influence in the November 2011 accident that left a 14-year-old boy with a broken leg and pelvis as well as bleeding on the brain. He was hospitalized and missed three months of school.

Skip to comments.The Yeti, a severed finger spirited from Nepal, and a famous film star.
Posted on 12/27/2011 4:38:01 AM PST by Daffynition
The full edited title: The Yeti, a severed finger spirited from Nepal, and a famous film star. DNA tests will finally solve a truly bizarre mystery
Set high in a remote Himalayan mountain range stands the Pangboche Buddhist monastery.
During heavy snowstorms, it can be found only by travellers who listen for the monks ceremonial horns.
The walls are lined with traditional Nepalese paintings depicting the treacherous tracks to the monastery.
And among them are pictures of the legendary ape-like creature we refer to as the Yeti.
(Excerpt) Read more at dailymail.co.uk ...
"You want a toe? I can get you a toe, believe me."
The DNA analysis determined it is a human finger.
late in the day but thank you so much!!!!
Effectiveness of the RNC against the Hussein machine, _metaphorically of course. KA-POW.
Ah, the teeth marks on it are Yeti. ;') Thanks Rebelbase.
Naturally, there is more to the story.
[snip] Oil businessman and adventurer Tom Slick first heard accounts of the possible existence of a "Yeti hand" held as a ritual artifact in the monastery at Pangboche during one of his first "Abominable Snowman" treks in 1957. The Slick expeditions were the first to bring photographs of the hand back to the West.
During later Tom Slick-sponsored expeditions in and around the Himalayas, his associates gathered more information on the "Pangboche hand," and an effort to further examine it was planned. In 1959 Peter Byrne, a member of Slick's expedition that year, reportedly stole pieces of the artifact after the monks who owned it refused to allow its removal for study.[1] Byrne claimed to have replaced the stolen bone fragments with human bones, rewrapping the hand to disguise his theft.[1]
Byrne smuggled the bones from Nepal into India, after which actor James Stewart allegedly smuggled the hand out of the country in his luggage.[1] Cryptozoologist Loren Coleman rediscovered this story while writing Tom Slick's biography in the 1980s. Coleman confirmed details of the incidents with written materials in the Slick archives, interviews with Byrne, and correspondence with Stewart. Byrne later confirmed the Pangboche hand story via a letter from Stewart that Byrne published in a general book on Nepalese wildlife.... London University primatologist William Charles Osman Hill conducted a physical examination of the pieces that Byrne supplied. His first findings were that it was hominid, and later in 1960 he decided that the Pangboche fragments were a closer match with a Neanderthal.
In 1991, in conjunction with Coleman's research, it was discovered that the Slick expedition consultant, an American anthropologist by the name of George Agogino, had retained samples of the alleged Yeti hand. The NBC program Unsolved Mysteries obtained samples and determined they were similar to human tissue, but were not human, and could only verify they were "near human." After the broadcast of the program, the entire hand was stolen from the Pangboche monastery, and reportedly disappeared into a private collection via the illegal underground in the sale of antiquities. George Agogino, before his death on September 11, 2000, transferred his important files on the Pangboche Yeti hand to Loren Coleman. [/snip]
The Jimmie Stewart connection is interesting:
Then, in 1957, Tom Slick, a wealthy American oilman, funded a series of expeditions to investigate Yetis.
He became obsessed after hearing about them on business trips to India.
It was a year later, during one of the expeditions funded by Slick, that the Irish-American explorer Peter Byrne heard two Sherpas mention the word Meh-te.
When quizzed, they told him about the ancient Yeti hand preserved in the Pangboche Monastery. Days of trekking through treacherous passes with the ever-constant threat of avalanches followed as Byrne made his way to the magnificent monastery.
He remembers walking the halls by candlelight and being led to the room which contained the Pangboche hand. It was covered with crusted black, broken skin, Byrne says.
He sent a runner over the border to India with a message for Slick about his find. It took three days for the return telegram to arrive with instructions from Slick to obtain the hand and to bring it to London.
But the monks refused to let Byrne take their revered object, explaining that if they let it go, it would bring down a curse on the monastery. Slick was determined, however. He arranged to meet Byrne in London, where they were joined by world-renowned primatologist Professor William Osman Hill.
The venue was the restaurant at Regents Park Zoo, where the professor was employed dissecting and embalming dead animals.
During the meal, Osman Hill told Byrne that he had to get hold of at least one finger from the hand because he wanted it to be scientifically analysed.
The professor who had links to the Royal College of Surgeons then reached under the table and brought out a brown paper bag.
He tipped a human hand onto the table, and suggested Byrne replace the finger with a human one.
Slick could only exclaim: I take it thats not dessert?
Byrne returned to the monastery, and although the monks were reluctant, they eventually agreed to part with the finger for £100 only if Byrne could find a way of disguising the missing digit.
The mountaineer wired the human finger on to the relic, before painting it with iodine to make it look the same colour as the rest of the hand. He now faced a perilous journey home.
In the previous year, the Nepalese government bizarrely had brought in a law making it illegal for foreigners to kill a Yeti.
Thus, Byrne took a risk by trekking on foot over the border into India with the digit. The challenge was to smuggle it back to London by plane without the authorities finding it and asking awkward questions.
Slick, as ever, had a solution. An old hunting buddy of his was in India and might be able to assist Byrne. The friend turned out to be none other than the movie star Jimmy Stewart.
Slick knew that Stewart was on holiday in Calcutta and thought he might be sufficiently intrigued by the Yeti legend to help out. So a meeting was arranged in the Grand Hotel in Calcutta with Byrne, Mr Stewart and his wife Gloria.
His instincts were right. The Stewarts were happy to go along with it. In order to dodge customs, Gloria hid the finger in her lingerie case and they flew out of India with no trouble.
Back in London, the finger was handed over to Professor Osman Hill for examination. Chillingly, his tests which involved comparisons with human hands concluded that it was not human.
The Stewarts were smugglers. LOL
Mis-attribution, mis-classification, mis-taken identity, mis-appropiation, missing-links, and sure looks like they really missed-the-boat-again this time.
OK, so let's see...
Piltdown man ... Java man ... Cardiff giant ... Yeti.
At this rate "Lucy"'s probably next.
This is all very explainable if you have seen the trailer for the new Rock of Ages movie and seen what Alec Baldwin looks like in it.
Some of the time he got off the set 'in character', and, well there you have it...
"Who called this meeting?"
I'm curious. DOES anyone know what that is ?
Looks like meetings I have been to.

Let's look at an example that shows how to export a table as an XML document to a Web site. Let's start with a Microsoft Access project connected to the Pubs database, then export XML files for the authors table to a Web site on my intranet.
Select Tables on the Objects bar, and highlight the authors table. Then, choose File, Export. In the Save as type drop-down list in the Export Table dialog box, select XML Documents (*.xml). Access enters authors into the File name drop-down list. Place the cursor just in front of authors in the File name list, then type http://yourservername/websitename. To save the files for the authors table in the pma17 Web site on the cab2000 Web server, I entered http://cab2000/pma17. You must be able to use HTTP to connect to the Web site. If you can't (e.g., because you don't have a live connection to the Internet), save the files in a local folder and move them to the Web site later. After specifying a file type and destination, click Export and wait for Access to connect to the Web server. After making the connection, Access opens the Export XML dialog box; the Data (XML) and the Schema of the data check boxes are already selected. These two options create the .xml and .xsd files. Select the Presentation of your data (XSL) check box to cause Access to generate the .xsl and .htm file. By default, Access prepares a client-side script for creating the HTML table file. The .xsl file in combination with the .xml file creates the .htm file. You can specify the creation of an .asp file by selecting Advanced in the Export XML dialog box and clicking the Presentation tab. If the Export Presentation (HTML 4.0 Sample XSL) check box isn't selected, select the box. Then, select Server (ASP) to create an .asp file instead of the default .htm file. Figure A shows the settings that create an .htm file.
You can open the .xml file in a browser to view the raw XML document, or you can open the .htm file to view the XML document in table format. Both files reside in the pma17 Web site on the cab2000 Web server. Figure B shows the first two rows of data for the raw XML document. Figure C shows the same two rows in an HTML table.
You can import the .xml file as a table into an Access database file or into an Access project. This capability simplifies transferring database objects as XML documents between Jet and SQL Server databases. Access 2002 always imports an XML document as a table regardless of its source.
Start the import process by opening a new Access project that connects to a database other than Pubs (or you can also open an Access database file). Begin importing an XML document as a table by selecting File, Get External Data, Import. After the Import dialog box opens, select XML Documents in the Files of type drop-down list. Enter the location for the .xml file, including the data values for the XML document. The corresponding .xsd file that defines the schema is usually in the same folder as the .xml file. In the File name drop-down list, enter the URL for the .xml file: http://cab2000/pma17/authors.xml. Next, click Import, OK in the Import XML dialog box to import the file structure and data. You can use this default option to create a new table and populate it with values based on the XML document. You can import just the structure of the document without any data values, or you can append the data values in the XML document to an existing table that has the same name as the XML document. (The first option is convenient for creating a new table without populating the table with any values.) You can select any of the options by clicking Options in the Export XML dialog box, selecting the alternative you want, and clicking OK. After Access processes the XML document, click OK. In this example, these steps result in a new table named authors in the Access project or Access database file.

We believe that all babies are beautiful—but one father from northern China definitely disagrees. In fact, he felt that his newborn baby girl was so ugly, it prompted him to divorce and sue his wife.
Plus: Parents Sue Over Adopted Special Needs Baby
Jian Feng married a woman he was reportedly very in love with. She became pregnant and gave birth to a daughter. But instead of being happy that he had a healthy child, Feng thought the baby was incredibly ugly. So ugly that it horrified him. The baby did not resemble either the mother nor the father, so Feng assumed his wife had been unfaithful.

But it turns out that the wife did not cheat. Instead, she had spent $100,000 on plastic surgery that entirely changed the way she looked—something she did not mention to Feng when they met. When the wife admitted to this, Feng filed for divorce and took her to court, claiming that she had gotten him to marry her under false pretenses. The judge sided with Feng, who won $120,000 in the case.
Do you think this qualifies as fraud? Is there such thing as an ugly baby? Leave a comment.

Pelham man sentenced for high-speed pursuitBy JAMES A. KIMBLE
Union Leader Correspondent
September 04. 2013 7:33PM
BRENTWOOD — A Pelham man began serving a 4- to 8-year prison sentence on Wednesday for setting off a high-speed pursuit by Pelham and Windham police and nearly hitting two police officers with his car before being shot at.
Grant Hebert, 22, pleaded guilty to attempted second-degree assault, reckless conduct, aggravated drunken driving and six other charges on Wednesday as part of a negotiated plea deal with county prosecutors.
Hebert fled from a traffic stop initiated by Pelham police Officer Eugene Stahl on the night of Oct. 28 and crashed his car.
Hebert drove between 80 to 90 mph just before losing control of his car and going off Lowell Road in Windham. Windham Officers Christopher Van Hirtum and Shane Mirisola joined the pursuit once Hebert's car reached their town.
Hebert steered through two large boulders and into a field. He then plowed through a gate, directing his car at Van Hirtum and Mirisola, prosecutors said.
The officers opened fire on Hebert believing their lives were in danger, according to prosecutors.
"Officer Mirisola had to jump out of way from being hit," Assistant County Attorney Jerome Blanchard said.
The two Windham officers and Stahl opened fire on the car as it came toward them.
Hebert's car struck the Pelham police cruiser. He tried to flee again prompting Mirisola to fire a second round of bullets into the vehicle, according to prosecutors.
Blanchard said that Hebert sustained injuries from bullets ricocheting off his vehicle, but was lucky he was not seriously injured from 21 shots fired by the three officers.
"It's amazing he is here to plead guilty today," Blanchard said.
Judge Marguerite Wageling accepted the plea deal, and ordered that Hebert lose his driver's license for two years. He will also have to install an interlock device on his vehicle. Hebert was ordered to pay more than $7,036 for damage to the Pelham police cruiser.
An investigation by the state Attorney General's Office concluded that Hebert's driving posed enough of a threat to justify the use of deadly force.
Prior to striking the plea deal, defense lawyer Adam Bernstein asked a judge to throw out incriminating statements his client made to police, along with blood test results and other medical information.

INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — Geico is announcing plans to bring 1,200 jobs to Indiana and pump millions of dollars into developing a campus just north of Indianapolis.
The Washington, D.C.-based insurance company plans to equip a 109,000 square-foot customer service center in Carmel. Geico Chairman Tony Nicely and Gov. Mike Pence announced the plans Monday at the Carmel site.
The Indiana Economic Development Corp. is offering $10 million in conditional tax credits and $400,000 in training grants if Geico can show it filled the jobs as promised.
The Carmel operation is expected to open by late April.
Pence said the company was drawn to Indiana by the state's conservative fiscal policies. Nicely said the company was attracted by central Indiana's quality workforce.

Bow taxpayers group offers alternative to safety complexBy SUSAN CLARK
Union Leader Correspondent
February 25. 2014 8:58PM
BOW — Concerned Taxpayers of Bow has presented a petitioned warrant article it says is a money-saving alternative to the town's $6,796,000 proposal to build a new fire and police safety facility on town-owned land.
The group's petition is asking voters for $225,000 to repair the electrical system in the fire station and community center, and provide proper ventilation in the center's kitchen. The petition was signed by 120 registered voters, and member Bryan K. Gould said it would satisfy the town's needs in the long-term.
"The $225,000 will remedy the electrical issues the fire marshal identified when the town fire chief invited him to inspect the firehouse. It will also pay for repairs to the hood and ventilation system for the cook top in the building," he said. "The $225,000 will certainly fix the issues with the firehouse/community center that have been raised as a justification for spending over $10 million on a new complex."
The town proposes a 25,000-square-foot public safety building to house the fire, emergency management and police departments. In addition, voters will have a choice of approving $4,640,000 to renovate the fire station and the community center, and $1,724,000 to renovate the existing police station. The Board of Selectmen and the Budget Committee do not support the articles to repair the facilities.
Another article seeks $200,000 to install a geothermal heating and cooling system in the public safety building. If the safety building proposal is approved, the bonds to repair the two properties will be deemed void. Each town-proposed article must pass by a two-thirds vote. The petition article needs a majority vote to pass.
"Bow's tax rate is in the top 10 percent for New Hampshire. By any objective measure, Bow residents are already overtaxed," said Gould. "The project will cost more than $6.8 million. We know that it will be at least $7 million if the proposed method of heating it — geothermal — is approved. If the geothermal proposal is rejected, presumably there will be another expenditure for some other form of heating. Interest on the bonds will be over $3 million making the capital investment over $10 million. This doesn't include the cost of furnishings and equipment."
Members of the group said they have been told it would be too expensive to renovate the existing fire and police stations because of the new structural standards, which require new buildings to withstand hurricanes and other natural disasters.
"The new building would be built to that standard," said Town Manager David Stack.
But the group said other towns have built public safety centers for $3 to 5 million less than Bow's proposal, and it's a matter of want rather than need, said Gould.
"There are far less costly alternatives to a new complex, such as repairing any deficiencies in the existing buildings. Even if the town concludes that a new public safety complex is important enough to bond for, the cost of the proposed Bow facility is two to three times higher than what other similarly sized towns have spent on such projects over the past three or four years," he said.
The group cites North Hampton, which built two fire stations totaling 20,000 square feet for $5.7 million last year; Brentwood's 10,000-square-foot station was built for about $2 million in 2010; Pelham's 18,000-square-foot station for $3.9 million in 2012; and New Hampton's fire and police complex for $2.23 million in 2011.
Stack said this year's proposal has been trimmed by about $1 million, cutting about 5,000 square feet of space.
"The community as a whole has to decide what it wants to do," he said. "The bond will alleviate the fire station issues and bring the fire and community building up to code."
The police station at 12 Robinson Road, which also contains the town's Department of Public Works, must also be brought up to building, fire and safety codes, and American Disability Act accessibility compliance. The facility was built in the 1980s as a public works building, Stack said.
"It's a great DPW building, but that's what it was designed for and not a police station. There are no holding cells in there now or a sally port to bring in suspects to ensure the safety of police personnel and the public," he said. "It was actually a heavy, large truck maintenance company that was converted into a police station in front and DPW offices in back."
Gould said voters should take a careful look at the warrants and view the group's presentation, "What is the Cost?" on its website, bowtaxpayers.org/bow.
"Last year, even without an organized opposition, the bond issue failed. There is obviously some support in town for the project, but we think that if Bow taxpayers are informed of the facts there will not be enough support to approve the proposal," he said.

It seems Real Housewives of New York City star Kelly Bensimon barely escaped an accident last night while driving through a blizzard.
As you all may know by now, the Northeast region is experiencing a pretty harsh blizzard with many government officials warning citizens to stay off the roads. It seems Kelly did not receive these warnings as she tweeted the following Monday morning – "During the blizzard, we spun out in my Mercedes on the LIE. I was petrified. It was like skating not driving. I need a #safe car."
While "safe cars" are nice to have, we also believe a functioning brain and the ability to know to stay home during dangerous blizzards would also suffice. Kelly then added that the blizzard started during her drive home. "Most dangerous times to drive are when it starts to snow/ rain. We were driving home as the blizzard started.did a 360. so scarey." Right.
Moving right along to Kelly's former costar Bethenny Frankel. Apparently Bethenny lost some weight during her stint on the Skating With The Stars disaster as she is now looking to pack on some pounds.
"Eating enchiladas at "on the border"mex grill at 10am.need to gain weight.I look like magda from "something about mary," tweeted Bethenny. Looks like Bethenny will have to go against her famous trademark – "Taste everything, eat nothing" for the time being.
It also seems Bethenny will continue to expand her ever growing empire. "I'm developing a healthy cleanse&purification daily system for you.JAN!" tweeted Bethenny when a fan asked about her thoughts on a good 3 day cleanse.

New York: Replacing that daily muffin with a handful or two of nuts may help people with diabetes better control their blood sugar and cholesterol levels, a new study suggests.
Researchers found that when people with type 2 diabetes replaced some of their usual carbohydrates with about a half-cup of mixed nuts each day, the study participants` blood sugar and "bad" cholesterol levels dipped slightly over three months.
In contrast, no such improvements were seen among people who swapped their normal carbs for a daily whole-wheat muffin.
The findings, published in the journal Diabetes Care, do not mean that nuts are the key to diabetes control, the authors say.
"We should be focusing on overall diet and lifestyle," Cyril W.C. Kendall of the University of Toronto in Canada, one of the researchers on the study, told Reuters Health.
The point, he said, is that "nuts can be part of a healthy diet."
"They have a lot of fat, but we now realize that those fats are healthy ones," Kendall added, referring to the unsaturated fats that have been linked to a lower risk of heart disease and other health benefits.
Still, nuts are high in calories, and people with diabetes should not simply add a handful to their usual diet, according to Kendall.
"They could use them instead to displace some of the less healthy snacks they usually have," he said.
For the study, Kendall and his colleagues randomly assigned 117 adults with type 2 diabetes to one of three groups: One group was given unsalted mixed nuts and told to eat them instead of some of their usual carbs; a second group replaced their normal carbs with "healthy" whole-wheat muffins with no added sugar.
The third group went on a half-nut/half-muffin regimen.
The "full-nut" group ate, on average, about 2 ounces (or a half-cup) of nuts per day, which totaled roughly 475 calories.
After three months, the researchers found, the full-nut group showed a 0.2 percent dip in their average hemoglobin A1C level -- a measure of long-term blood sugar control.
The change was small, and "just shy," Kendall said, of what is considered a "clinically significant" improvement in blood sugar control.
But, he added, people in the study were already on diabetes medication and typically had good blood sugar control. "So we`re seeing a benefit over and above what they were achieving with medication," Kendall said.
As for cholesterol, the nut group`s average LDL cholesterol -- the "bad" kind -- declined from about 97 milligrams per deciliter to 89 mg/dL. (An LDL count below 100 mg/dL is generally considered optimal.)
No similar improvements were seen in the other two groups.
It`s not clear why the full-nut group showed better blood sugar and LDL numbers. Kendall said he suspects it is largely because of the monounsaturated fats in nuts.
"But," he added, "they also have protein, there`s a little fiber, and some polyphenols." Polyphenols are antioxidant compounds found in a wide range of plant foods.
The bottom line for people with diabetes, Kendall said, is to remember that diet and other lifestyle habits, like regular exercise, matter. "Diet is very important, even if you are taking medication."
For people who are not crazy about nuts, there are other sources of monounsaturated fat, like olive oil and avocados. While this study did not look at those foods, Kendall said it would be a wise move to replace some carbs with those fats.
Another question is whether the blood sugar and cholesterol changes linked to eating nuts last over time -- and whether they translate into lower rates of heart disease or other diabetes complications.
Studying that is difficult, since very large groups of people would have to be followed over years -- a very expensive undertaking, Kendall noted.
"But," he said, "I think these long-term studies are important to do."
The current study was partially funded by the International Tree Nut Council Nutrition Research & Education Foundation and the Peanut Institute, both industry groups.

A Battle Plan for a Condo's Dog Wars
Plus, secrets of a workaholic workplace; a behavioral economist answers readers
Dear Dan,
My partner and I live in a pretty 250-townhouse condo development, but we have a problem with people who don't clean up after their dogs. Some are residents of our condo, but others are just passing through. Our condo fees pay someone big bucks to clean up after the dogs, and there's a $50 fine when owners fail to clean up after their dogs. But you have to know who the dog owner is, catch him in the act, and report him to the condo corporation. This policy is not working. What can we do? Thanks!
We need to consider two forces in this situation: the positive force of social norms and the negative force of deterrence.
A great deal of research shows that what people do is less a function of what's legal than of what they find socially acceptable—social norms. If dog owners see a lot of droppings around the condo area, they will find it perfectly acceptable to continue in this tradition, but they would feel guilty leaving doggy souvenirs behind if the grounds were pristine. Research on social norms tells us that violators are not only acting selfishly but are also making it more likely that others will follow their example. This means that you should work extra hard to establish a better standard of conduct—because once the social norm is set to clean up after the dogs, the good behavior will maintain itself.
In terms of deterrence, you can't do much about outsiders, but I think you should try something more exotic with your condo neighbors. The way I see it, in the current "game" the dog owners try to hide the droppings, and the managers try to catch and punish the owners. I would try to alter the game so that it's among the condo dog owners.
What if the condo management put money in a community fund to pay for a droppings-cleaner, as needed, and used whatever was left at the end of the month for a get-together for all dog owners and their dogs? If lots of money remained each month, the party would include food, drinks and doggy treats; if there was no money, it would just be water. This way, failing to clean up after the dogs would damage the community—the personal and social cost of these actions would increase—and people would be more careful.
Dear Dan,
My friend recently started working at a consultancy. We'd both heard about the brutally long working hours, but what surprised us was how people prized the number of hours they clocked, even when this went up to a ridiculous 16 hours a day. In this age when people are almost forced to have varied interests to define themselves, why would the consultants be shouting their boring lifestyles from the rooftops?
This kind of behavior might seem odd, but there are a few ways to reason about it. First, I suspect that in the world of consulting it is hard to estimate directly how good any particular individual is. If you worked in such a place, you would want your managers to know how good you are—but if they couldn't directly see your quality, what would you do? Working many hours and telling everyone about it might be the best way to give your employer a sense of your commitment—which they might even confuse with your quality.
Have a dilemma for Dan?
Email: firstname.lastname@example.com
This is a general tendency. Every time we can't evaluate the real thing we are interested in, we find something easy to evaluate and make an inference from it. I often hear people complain, for example, about the cleanliness of airplane bathrooms. But we don't really care about the bathrooms; what we care about is the functioning of the engines. Engines are hard to evaluate, however, so we focus on the bathrooms. Maybe people reason that if the airline is taking care of the bathrooms, it is probably taking care of the engines as well.
Another possibility: Your friend could be using the long working ours to keep score in some competition with his friends at work. This may not be the smartest contest, but people are highly motivated to win in almost every aspect of life—just look at the range of dares and ridiculous competitions on TV. From this perspective, maybe this is not the worst sort of competition for your friend to get into.
Dear Dan,
In your last column you gave advice about the need to experience other people's kids in order to decide if you should or should not have kids of your own. Does that advice hold for deciding if I should or should not marry my current girlfriend?
In general, it is advisable to carry out experiments in a way that matches as much as possible the circumstances that you want to understand (in this case, how it would feel to be with this person for decades to come), so I would recommend spending two weeks with your girlfriend's mother.
