| Friend, Husband Testify In Love Triangle Trial
Nelson's best friend, Michelle Moore, accepted a deal Tuesday that calls for her to testify and to plead guilty to being an accessory to a crime. In exchange, prosecutors dropped more serious charges. They say she helped plan the slaying. Moore testified she and Nelson left nails on the murder victim's driveway and vandalized her car. But when Heather Garraus and her husband decided to patch up their marriage, Nelson was furious."She had said that she wanted to get rid of her," Moore testified. "She had said that she could just drive down to the credit union where she worked and she could just shoot her."Moore said she thought it was just talk, even Nelson's comments the night before the murder."She just had to get rid of her," Moore said. "She had to do it. That she was in Hell and she didn't want to live like this anymore."Moore said that Nelson told her that if she got a phone call the next day saying she was taking a bath, then Moore would know she did it.
SNP 'not fit to govern'
Here he seems to have missed a rather basic point. The SNP are proposing a tax cut. They have made that point clear, describing it as the largest tax cut in a generation.Mr. Midwinter says that moving from the council tax to the local income tax will raise £831 million less in tax than at present. That is half true. £450 million less will be raised. Put another way (and one I suspect that will ring more true to taxpayers) that means £450 million will be returned to Scottish taxpayers. That is a central feature of the SNP plans.This leaves £381 million in dispute. This £381 million is the amount of the current council tax rebate. Mr. Midwinter assumes that this money would be lost to Scotland in the maw of the Treasury.What we know from the Burt Review is that arrangements are flexible enough to deal with their proposed alternative to Council Tax.
EPA treads heavily on states' rights
Reilly is back in the news. He made an eleventh-hour appeal to current EPA boss Stephen Johnson to approve rules adopted by California to boost fuel efficiency and curb tailpipe emissions. A memo was prepared for Reilly's use by Christopher Grundler, deputy director at the EPA's Office of Transportation and Air Quality. The memo was written as if Reilly were talking to Johnson: "You have to find a way to get this done. If you cannot, you will face a pretty big personal decision about whether you are able to stay in the job under those circumstances. "This is a choice only you can make, but I ask you to think about the history and the future of the agency in making it, if you are asked to deny the waiver. I fear the credibility of the agency that we both love will be irreparably damaged." In December, Johnson refused to grant California -- and 15 other states -- the waiver to enact their own curbs on greenhouse gases.

Human Services Will Not Take Action Against Hamburg Office
However, they will, beginning in March provide another series of mandated training to all field staff statewide." According to Munsell, the investigation uncovered a need for additional training, mandatory reporting requirements and policy changes regarding how and when to report alleged abuse or neglect.
