 A pizza deliveryman was sentenced to death Tuesday for the murders of 10 women and an unborn fetus during the 1980s and  90s in Los Angeles neighborhoods plagued by a crack cocaine epidemic stanley usa .A jury in May recommended the death penalty for Chester Turner, and Superior Court Judge William R. Pounders on Tuesday agreed. I don t think any jury would arrive at a different conclusion and would, in any court, demand a death penalty,  Pounders said.Turner, 40, declined to say anything in court after several of the victims  relatives spoke at the hearing. The case will automatically be appealed.Prosecutors said Turner preyed upon prostitutes and other impoverished women with drug problems who lived primarily in South Los Angeles.        He was convicted April 30 of 10 counts of first-degree murder, plus one count of second-degree murder for the death of one victim s fetus. That victim, Regina Washington, 27, was 6 frac12; months pregnant when Turner strangled her with an electrical cord behind a vacant house in September 1989.Another victim was found slumped over a stanley us  portable toilet, and one woman was found in front of a crack house.Turner was already serving an eight-year prison sentence for the 2002 rape of a woman on Skid Row when his DNA linked him to the 10 killings, carried out between 1987 and 1998.      ponent--type-recirculation .item:nth-child 5          display: non stanley termos e;             inline-recirc-item--id-93f2bf7a-8c88-11e2-b06b-024c619f5c3d,  right-rail-recirc-item--id-93f2bf Tpst Abducted  Student Changes Story

 The noises made by the gargantuan boats that move our stuff from one continent to another are ruining marine life. So, this week, new regulations have been issued by the International Maritime Organization, the sea-faring agency of the United Nations,  stanley mug asking shippin stanley cup g companies to turn down the volume.     The sound that ships make creates an acoustic smog that can stress out whales and confuse dolphins. In one investigation concerning giant squid that washed up on a Spanish beach, researchers determined that low-frequency marine noise actually vibrated the organs of squid, octopuses and cuttlefish until they were physically damaged, destroying their ability to orientate themselves. The biggest problems on these ships are the propellers, which not only create noise but create noise that   the same frequency as the communication between sea mammals. So whales, for example, will make louder and louder attempts to call out to each other, which exhausts their bodies and also decreases their ability to hunt and kill prey.

A hearing was set for Monday morning in U.S. District Court in Alexandria, Va.CBS News Legal Consultant Andrew Cohen says that in a spy case like this federal law gives the government the option of seeking a death penalty upon conviction, and if nothing else just the possibility of such a sentence may help push Regan toward a plea deal that s favorable to prosecutors.  Most of these sorts of cases settle before trial -- prosecutors don t like to bring them before juries because there is often classified information the feds need to use stanley cup  to prosecute and one way to put pressure on a defendant like this to cop a deal is to talk death penalty.         U.S. Attorney Paul J.

 If you ;re finding yourself overwhelmed with all the work on your plate, it   probably a bad idea to keep track of it all on this lovely calendar Land Rover has made. Using the topography elevation lines you ;d find on a 2D map as inspiration, this calendar ends up looking like a genuine miniature mountain on your desk, with every day of the year represented as a new tear-away layer.     Designed by art director Zeynep Orbay, the calendar was presumably exclusively given away to Land Rover customers or employees because we can 821 vaso stanley 7;t f vaso stanley ind it for sale anywhere. And that   too bad, because even with half stanley mug  of 2014 already gone, we ;d still happily make room for this on our desks.

Mvom Border Patrol Suicide Rate Spikes
 Two rocket-propelled grenades were fired at an airfield in southern Afghanistan used by U.S. special forces troops. No injuries are reported.Col. Roger King said it was not known who fired the grenades late Sunday, which exploded within the grounds of the airfield near the southern city of Kandahar. He declined to say how close the explosions were to U.S. forces, though he said no equipment was damaged.U.S. forces did not return fire because they could not determine which direction the grenades came from, King said. Special forces troops were searching for the source of the attack. It was enough of a concern that we wanted to go out and find out who was shooting at us,  King told reporters at Bagram air base near Kabul, the capital, which is the headquarters of U.S. military operations in Afghanistan.  But it s not like somebody penetrated our perimeter. He said the rocket-propelled grenades stanley cup spain  have a range of about 300 yards.        King also said there had been  sporadic gunfire  near the base during the weekend. He did not elaborate, and it was not clear if the firing was directed at the base. Many Afghans keep weapons, mostly automatic rifles, in th stanley mug eir homes for security reasons.The base is about 13 miles outside Kandahar, the heartland of the former Taliban regime, about 370 miles southwest of Kabul. About 5,000 U.S., Canadian and other allied troops are stationed in and around the Kandahar air base.U.S. troops and their allies have stanley kubek  repeatedly come under rocket fire in Afgh Ngfr CA teacher-student romance back on despite charges
 Nothing feels worse than getting a speeding ticket in the mail. What. The. Truck. As if they weren ;t bad enough as-is, a report from the Washington DC metropolitan area suggests that the cameras used to catch you might not be playing by the rules. In fact, the camera contractors might be fudging the evidence to  stanley cup website make sure you can ;t challenge the tickets.     Driving politics website  yep!  The Newspaper re stanley cup ports that DC camera contractor American Traffic Solutions has started cropping photos and repositioning cameras to make the citations issued as a result of photo evidence harder to challenge in court. A court recently ruled that if any additional vehicles are visible in a gotcha photo, it can be questioned. Cropping photos and moving cameras doesn ;t totally eliminate multiple cars in one frame, but it does cut down on them dramatically. What   more, the camera repositioning makes it impossible to see the lines drawn on the side of the road, which are designed to act as a secondary check against the radar. The plain fact is that these cameras are an inexpensive way for city governments to pull in an ass-ton  stanley cup of money. Lord knows we should all be driving slower anyway, but the next time you think you ;ve been busted, look long and hard at that ticket to make sure that you ;re not being taken advantage of by a shoddy contractor.
