http://www.desmoinesregister.com/story/news/crime-and-courts/2017/01/18/attorney-iowan-accused-voting-twice-not-competent-trial/96726074/

A Des Moines woman facing a felony charge for allegedly voting twice in the 2016 general election has "significant mental deficits" and might not be competent to stand trial, her defense attorney wrote in a new filing.

Terri Lynn Rote, a registered Republican, was booked into jail Oct. 28 on a charge of first-degree election misconduct after investigators found that she cast an early ballot at the Polk County Election Office and then again at a satellite voting location, according to a police report.

Rote, 56, is currently scheduled to go to trial in February. But her court-appointed attorney, Jane White, filed a motion Tuesday asking a judge to order an evaluation to determine whether Rote is competent to stand trial.

White wrote that Rote is unable to stay focused for long periods and has other "cognitive limitations." Under Iowa law, a defendant must appreciate the nature of the charge, understand the court proceedings and be able to help prepare a defense for a case to move forward to trial, she wrote.

"It is unlikely that Defendant can assist in her defense or participate in the trial process," White wrote. "It is unknown if the Defendant has been diagnosed previously with a mental health disorder, but her interactions with counsel indicate to counsel that this may be the case."

A judge had not ruled on the motion as of Wednesday evening. But the proceedings would be put on hold if a judge does rule that an evaluation is necessary.

Rote admitted voting twice during an interview with Iowa Public Radio after her arrest. She feared that her first ballot for President-elect Donald Trump would be changed to a vote for Hillary Clinton.

"The polls are rigged," she told an IPR journalist.

Rote could face up to five years in prison if convicted.

Falcons loss is the biggest upset in Super Bowl history.

PATRIOTS 34 - 28 FALCONS
TRUMP 304 - 227 HILLARY

http://www.usatoday.com/story/sports/nfl/falcons/2017/02/04/arthur-blank-molly-mother-atlanta-super-bowl-2017/97497538/
HOUSTON – If Atlanta Falcons owner Arthur Blank gets to break out his viral dance moves one more time after Super Bowl LI on Sunday, he hopes his late mother is watching somewhere.

“She was a great dancer,” Arthur Blank told USA TODAY Sports on Friday. “The only thing I’m sad about Sunday is that she’s not going to be here with us. But I believe in my heart that she’s floating around up there someplace and looking down and clapping her hands and proud of her son and proud of our franchise.”

“He’s fiery and competitive in so many cool ways,” Falcons general manager Thomas Dimitroff said. “I remember years and years ago when we would have some tough times and we would be talking at midnight or 1 in the morning about it postgame. He said, ‘This is why I have you here, so that we can vent on the same level as far as what our frustrations and agitations are about making sure that we can create the best team we can.’”

Said Blank: “That’s just kind of the way I’m wired. I don’t like to lose. And we didn’t come here to Houston to lose.”

He admits getting nerves for games, but he tries to control them – “partly because I think if not, you would go insane,” Blank said. He says he also wants to set the right example for his six children, his wife’s three and five grandchildren who are here this week.

He speaks of the Falcons’ soon-to-be-completed new home, the $1.5 billion Mercedes-Benz Stadium, as an “iconic” venue that has become more unique as construction has unfolded. “I’m not a good person at saying no to good ideas and keep getting good ideas and keep saying yes to them,” Blank said.

He’s careful to say he doesn’t want to make a statement about one political party or president, but Blank makes his point clear when asked about protests that could occur outside NRG Stadium on Sunday – speaking among other things about a nation that “became great by the diversity that represents the history of this country and everybody coming from all over the world to fulfill their visions and their dreams” and needs to create more opportunities for the middle class.

“I care deeply about those values,” said Blank, who is Jewish. “It’s what drives all our foundation work and all of our businesses. So, I want to continue to support people who look for answers that are embracing and are inclusive, and not building either physical walls or emotional walls or walls of language. That’s not what’s made our country great.”

Those values surely were influenced by his parents as well, and in particular his mother, who was “a great folk dancer, classical dancer, pop dancer,” Blank said. “All of the women in my family are great dancers – my daughters, wife.”

Blank’s dance moves are … well, unorthodox. But he hasn’t been shy about showing them off, whether it was doing Cam Newton’s “dab” after the Falcons upset the Carolina Panthers late last season or getting down with receiver Mohamed Sanu on stage after the NFC Championship Game victory over the Green Bay Packers a couple weeks ago.

As long as the Falcons win, it seems, the spirit moves him.

“That’s just a dance of joy and emotion,” Blank said. “There’s not a lot of structure to it, but there is a lot of joy to it.”

Royal Navy sailors will no longer be able to watch pornography, even downloaded from the internet, or have explicit images by their beds.

The regulations have apparently been in place since before 2013 but are now being fully applied.

They were reportedly brought in after female naval servicemen said that pornography on naval vessels left them feeling intimidated.

The increased enforcement follows a review into the accessibility of ‘sexually explicit magazines and pornographic films’ on board.

Reportedly bosses are concerned that some of our 29,000 sailors are picking up pornography online or in South America and the Caribbean.

They are just trying to preserve the proud and honorable traditions of the Navy, such as homosexuality.

Montreal police are cracking down on combat sports like Brazilian jiu-jitsu and kickboxing, despite organizers insisting the sports are legal.

The Canadian Brazilian jiu-jitsu championship was postponed Sunday after Montreal police threatened to arrest participants. Police say the event violates a section of Canadian law that forbids sports containing strikes and kicks. The Canada Pro Jiu-Jitsu Championships was organised by the UAE Jiu-Jitsu Federation and the International Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu Federation, and was supposed to feature more than 200 competitors from around the world. Organisers say police contacted them Friday to convey that event was illegal, and that any participant could be arrested. They've rescheduled the event for 5 March, at another, undisclosed, venue.

The championship has been held in Montreal for nine years, said Guy Mondreuil, who runs a Brazilian jiu-jitsu studio in Quebec City. This is the first time he has heard of police cracking down on a Brazilian jiu-jitsu event. "I don't know what's going on," Mr Mondreuil told the BBC. "It's not a good thing." Montreal police also cancelled a separate kickboxing event scheduled for the same day.

Organisers of the Canadian championship say Brazilian jiu-jitsu does not involve strikes with the hand, fists or feet, which are illegal in Canada. A spokesperson from Montreal's police force, Service de Police de la Ville de Montreal (SPVM) told the BBC that police received a complaint about both events, and were legally required to shut them down. According to section 83 of the Criminal Code of Canada, sports that contain "an encounter or fight with fists, hands or feet" are illegal, unless they are part of the International Olympic Committee programme. Neither kickboxing nor Brazilian jiu-jitsu are part of the Olympics.

But Albertho Mercedat, an organiser of the kickboxing event, says kickboxing is legal in Quebec, and the police have it wrong. "The SPVM continues to claim arbitrarily that kick-boxing is an illegal combat sport on its territory," , he wrote on Facebook, He said the event will be rescheduled for later in July, an that he is "convinced that the SPVM will positively change its position soon." The law banning combat sports outside the IOC was updated in 2013 to also allow provinces to regulate sports themselves, which paved the way for amateur mixed-martial arts (MMA) tournaments and Ultimate Fighting Championship events, ncluding in Quebec.

Organisers of the Canadian Brazilian jiu-jitsu championship say Brazilian jiu-jitsu should not be affected by section 83 at all, because it does not feature strikes by hands, fist, or feet. Instead, Brazilian jiu-jitsu focuses on grappling and ground fighting, where practitioners try and place their opponents in choke or joint holds. They say police may be confusing their sport with the Japanese form of jiu-jitsu, which does include strikes.

http://mississippiherald.com/jackson-husband-wife-shocked-dna-test-reveals-biological-twins/

A doctor at a fertility clinic in the Mississippi capital of Jackson has made a startling revelation concerning a couple who sought treatment at the center. The married pair, who cannot be named to due to patient confidentiality restrictions, had been struggling to conceive and came to the clinic to take part in the IVF program.
“During the in vitro fertilization process, we take a DNA sample from both the male and female to get a profile of their genetic backgrounds,” the doctor involved told Mississippi Herald, whose name must also be suppressed to protect the identities of the patients.

“It’s just a routine thing, and we wouldn’t normally check to see if there was a relationship between the two samples, but in this case the lab assistant involved was shocked by the similarity of each profile.” The lab assistant summoned the doctor, who knew almost instantly that the patients must have been related. “My first reaction was that they must have been less-closely related; perhaps they were first cousins, which does happen sometimes. However, looking closer at the samples, I noticed there were way too many similarities.” The doctor consulted the patient’s files, and noted with shock that both had the exact same birth dates listed in 1984. “With this in mind, I was convinced that both patients were fraternal twins.”

The doctor now had a dilemma on his hands: did the married couple already know that they were twins, and had yet still married and now hoped to conceive a child together? Or were they blissfully unaware of the situation. “It was a titillating subject to raise, but I had to discuss it with them,” said the doctor with flushed cheeks and visible perspiration. During their next appointment at the clinic, the doctor did his best to break the news gently. “They burst out laughing when I asked them if they knew they were twins,” he said. “The husband said that a lot of people remarked on the fact that they shared the same birthdays, and looked similar to each other, but he said it was just a funny coincidence and that the couple were definitely not related. The poor man had no idea.”

After the doctor insisted that the DNA evidence proved the pair were twins, the couple started to take him more seriously. “The wife kept pleading with me to admit I was joking, and I wish that I was, but they had to know the truth,” said the doctor. Once the news had sunk in, the doctor tried to establish how the twin brother and sister had unknowingly wed each other. “From what we were able to piece together, the biological parents of the couple had died in a car crash when the couple were infants, and they had no close family willing to adopt them. They’d been taken into state care, and were adopted out to separate families. Due to a filing error, neither foster family had ever been told that their adopted child had a twin.”

The doctor explained that the couple had met during college, and a relationship between the pair soon flourished. “They were attracted to each other due to their similarities,” said the doctor. “The fact that they’d both been adopted, after their parents had died, meant they’d both experienced a similar childhood, and they felt they could really connect with each other. If only they had known the truth, it could have saved them so much pain later on.” For now, the couple are reported to be considering the future of their relationship. “I really hope they can work something out,” said the doctor. “For me, it’s a particularly unusual case because my job is all about helping couples conceive a child. This is the first time my career has been like my japanese animes.”

From a legal standpoint, marriage between siblings in Mississippi is prohibited and subject to a prison term of up to 10 years. However, the maximum fine is only $500, which critics have claimed encourages marriage between siblings or close relatives. In this case, however, it is believed the couple involved will not face charges due to the unique circumstances of their case.

>“The bottom line is whoever is doing this is destroying property,” St. Petersburg Assistant Police Chief Jim Previterra said. “They are marking up the beautiful downtown area of St. Petersburg.”

>Indeed, St. Pete is a city known for its beautiful art and stunning murals. Many people are upset by this new graffiti involving a tush trend. They don’t like the fact that the bold buttocks are suddenly everywhere.

>“This is not art. At all,” said one woman. “It’s vandalism.”

>“There should be consequences. You can’t just take it upon yourself to do whatever you want to do,” another man said.

>The assistant police chief describes it as an “eyesore.”

>“It’s causing the city to have to go around behind who this is and clean up,” he said. “And, we have to dedicate more resources to it.”

>In the end, the mystery man or woman who is showcasing these backsides will most likely get a front row seat in a court room

A battle is brewing at Western Michigan University this summer between a group of hungry goats and a labor union.

The 400-member American Federation of State, County and Municipal Employees has filed a grievance contending that the work the goats are doing in a wooded lot is taking away jobs from laid-off union workers.

A spokeswoman said the university had brought in a crew of the nimble-footed ruminants “to clear undergrowth in a woodlot, much of it poison ivy and other vegetation that is a problem for humans to remove….Not wanting to use chemicals, either, we chose the goat solution to stay environmentally friendly.”

The goats are already ahead of schedule in their task of clearing 15 acres before the fall semester – unless the National Labor Relations Board gets mad and decides to charge in.

Asleep in the mountains northwest of Boulder, Colo., a teenage camp counselor was awakened Sunday morning by a loud crunching sound.

The noise was the sound of large teeth scraping against his skull, he told Denver ABC-affiliate KMGH. A black bear, the teen realized, was trying to pull him out of his sleeping bag by his head.

“It grabbed me like this and pulled me, and then it bit the back of my head and dragged me,” the teen, identified only by his first name, Dylan, told KMGH. “When it was dragging me, that was the slowest part. It felt like it went forever.”

Fellow staffers and campers were roused by the commotion and tried to scare the bear away as Dylan fought back. The bear dragged Dylan about 10 feet, then dropped him and walked away.

Dylan was taken to the hospital. His injuries weren’t life threatening. Authorities are searching for the bear, which will likely be euthanized, according to the Associated Press.

>A Springfield mother is accused of endangering her two children by towing them in a little red plastic wagon behind her car around a roundabout repeatedly Wednesday evening.

>Alana Nicole Donahue, 27, was arrested shortly before 8:30 p.m., less than an hour after Springfield police received calls from concerned motorists.

>According to Lt. Scott McKee, Donahue told police she “didn’t understand what the problem was because she was only driving 5 mph and she just wanted to show the kids a good time.”

>Donahue was not intoxicated, according to McKee.

>According to the logs, several drivers stopped their cars and confronted the mother, who then tried to drive away. She eventually stopped and put the wagon inside the Taurus and allegedly told one driver to “be an adult about it,” the logs state.
