Where to See the Stars

Where to See the Stars
The best observatories to see the stars
By John Rossheim

A dozen amateur astronomers ages 15 to 70 pointed their heavily filtered telescopes at the sun as it mounted the horizon from the grounds of Brown University’s Ladd Observatory in Providence, Rhode Island, shortly after 5 a.m. on June 8, 2004, a Tuesday.

A hundred or more visitors—many who had never approached a telescope’s eyepiece—peered through these scopes, or through the observatory’s own 116-year-old, 12-inch-diameter refractor, to witness a twice-in-a-century “transit of Venus”: the black disk of the small planet silhouetted against the red-glowing face of the sun.

What drew these folks together—family groups, couples and a number of singles—was curiosity about heavenly bodies. This scene is repeated—more commonly under milky-black skies—at the dozens of observatories in or near American cities that regularly open their instruments’ awe-inspiring views to the public….





Arlen Specter 2d funniest in D.C.

Arlen Specter 2d funniest in D.C.

By Steve Goldstein

Inquirer Washington Bureau
WASHINGTON _ Is Arlen Specter the funniest celebrity in Washington?

Nope, he’s the runner-up.

This is not a joke.

Pennsylvania’s longest-serving senator in history turns out to have great comic timing and a sense of humor somewhere between Stephen Colbert and Henny Youngman.

Specter finished second last night in a contest to determine the funniest celebrity in the nation’s capital, a charity event to benefit VH1’s Save the Music Foundation and the Institute of Musical Traditions.

Most of the other performers were members of the media, so Specter stood out not only for his age – at 77 he was the oldest contestant by a good quarter-century – but for being a good sport among his famously dour and introverted congressional colleagues.





Fetus Theft Adds to Mo. Town’s Notoriety

Fetus Theft Adds to Mo. Town’s Notoriety

MARIA SUDEKUM FISHER

The Associated Press

SKIDMORE, Mo. – If records were kept on per capita misery, Skidmore, population about 350, might be near the top of the list.

The town sits on a hill above the Nodaway River amid cornfields in northwestern Missouri. Residents farm, man the town’s lone gas station and clock in at nearby factories.

Skidmore is not a hotbed of any activity, much less the criminal kind. In 2005, all of Nodaway County recorded 16 violent crimes.

But for such a small town, Skidmore has an unusually violent history. The most recent of the especially brutal crimes was the slaying of a pregnant woman whose fetus was cut from her womb.

“It doesn’t matter where I go in the U.S.,” Nodaway County Sheriff Ben Espey said. “I tell people I live in northwest Missouri and they say, `Oh, do you know where Skidmore is?’ It’s a worldwide thing, really.

“I say, `Yes,’ and then I tell them they should believe about a third of what they see on television and read in books.”

The murdered woman, Bobbie Jo Stinnett, was eight months pregnant. Lisa Montgomery, 39, is on trial in Kansas City, about 100 miles to the south, accused of walking into Stinnett’s house in December 2004, strangling her with a rope and slicing the baby out of her womb with a kitchen knife…

Police: Man neglected sons, kept wife drugged

S.C. house was trashed except for tidy room used for gambling

May 12, 2007

CHESTER, S.C. – For nearly four years, a South Carolina man held his wife and two sons captive in a house infested with maggots and human waste, authorities said.

The boys slept on a bare mattress as their mother was kept in a drug-induced stupor in a house that was decrepit except for a tidy one-room illegal gambling parlor run by Danny William Dove, police said.

Police found maggots infesting the refrigerator. Human waste and used toilet paper littered the bathroom floor and the house smelled like a dead animal, according to police photographs and authorities who visited the home after Dove was arrested this week.

The living room was covered in trash and upturned furniture, the kitchen’s cabinets were falling apart and dirty clothing was piled in waist-high heaps.

“There was chaos everywhere,” Chester County Sheriff’s Detective Scott Thompson said Thursday. “I don’t think we’ll ever really determine how it happened — how you get to live like that. I think he got so wrapped up in drugs and wanting to control everything, nothing else mattered.”…

Cops Say Woman Wanted Ex’s Coffee Spiked

The Associated Press

WILLIAMSPORT, Pa. – A woman bitter over her divorce asked her ex-husband’s girlfriend to try to kill him by spiking his drink with cocaine, state police said.

Patricia A. Reiman knew her ex-husband, David, had a heart condition and believed spiking his drink with cocaine would cause “his heart to possibly explode and kill him,” state Trooper Brad Eisenhower said.

The girlfriend, Anna Anae, told David Reiman of her conversations with his former wife and was cooperating with police.

Patricia Reiman allegedly gave the drug to Anae on Monday, police said.

On Tuesday, Anae called Patricia Reiman and said she had put the cocaine in David Reiman’s coffee and that he was dead, Eisenhower said. The conversation was recorded, but police declined to describe Patricia Reiman’s reaction to the false information.

Reiman, 42, was charged Tuesday with criminal solicitation to commit murder, criminal solicitation to commit aggravated assault, possession with intent to deliver cocaine and possession of cocaine. She was bitter over the divorce initiated by her ex-husband, police said.

She was being held in the county prison without bail. It wasn’t clear if she had an attorney.





No Shirts

Improve Everywhere: No Shirts
Our friends at Improv Everywhere recently completed their latest mission “No Shirts”, where they organized 111 shirtless men of all shapes and sizes to go shopping at the Abercrombie and Fitch store on 5th Avenue in New York. As it turns out, in a store that celebrates the shirtless male, shirtless men are not allowed to buy shirts.

Agent Nguyen came up with the idea for this mission when he noticed the 5th Avenue Abercrombie and Fitch store had a shirtless male model greeting all customers as they enter. Upon further examination, we discovered the model is only one aspect of the store’s celebration of the shirtless male. There are photographs all over the store of bare-chested men, both on the wall and on the products themselves…..
