Suggestion of intent in ’86 shooting – The Boston Globe.
Investigators have discovered evidence they say suggests Amy Bishop may have purposely shot her brother with a 12-gauge shotgun in 1986, prompting Norfolk District Attorney William R. Keating yesterday to initiate a judicial inquest into the death, which had been ruled accidental.
Bishop took her father’s shotgun on Dec. 6, 1986, and loaded it in her bedroom before fatally shooting her 18-year-old brother in the kitchen of the family’s Braintree home. She then ran to an auto dealership, where she held two workers at gunpoint and demanded a car.

I got all my tax returns back, and I’ve suddenly got all kinds of money. The urge to spend it on stupid stuff (PS3) is very strong. But I know I need to wait and get a car. It weird having so much saved, it doesn’t even feel real. Its all just numbers.
I think I’m going to go out today, but I’m not sure where, or even if I should go. I don’t want to spend any cash, but that’s the only thing I can think of right now. All my chores are done; I really don’t have much going on.
I’m going to have to figure out something for dinner, since my mom isn’t cooking tonight. Not sure what I’m going to do there…..
Looking to take out a lease on a car in Tokyo Japan?
There are some important questions to ask about the contract before you sign. I’d be happy to discuss those with you. One area is the residual value of the contract and what happens at the end of the contract. The so called residual may not be the residual you think it is! E.g. The residual is set at 800,000 yen. At the end of the contract you have looked after the car well and there has been no damage, the km’s driven are within the limit allowed…you decide to hand the car back and not buy it out. Generally speaking you can just walk away from it at no cost correct? Well not so fast! Depending on the contract if the market value (according to the dealer) is 500,000 yen you will be asked to pay the 300,000 yen difference. Now this can be tricky as the lease company can on purpose up the residual to get the monthly down and hence lead you into a lease that you thought was a good deal…to good to be true!….the lease company has zero risk because they can adjust the amount payable at the end of the contract. You should ask for a guaranteed residual value.
I guarantee the residual on my leases! There are other points to be wary of. For more information on leasing a car new or used car in Tokyo Japan see www.micklay.com or email cars@micklay.com Call 03-3468-0804 or 090-3805-7141. Mick Lay.
If you have found a perfect car for yourself in an overseas country and want to ship it to the United States, I bet it may not be an easy job. With the bundle of rules and regulations related to the safety measures and emission norms needed for vehicles, auto shipping to US is a complicated task. However with some necessary steps taken carefully, you can make this job easier and can cruise down Route 66 easily.
All requirements needed to drive in United States must be met by the Vehicle. You must carefully check the safety features including the ride height, smog emissions etc. before you start the shipping process for the vehicle.
To make the job easier you may hire a customs broker who can handle all your paperwork and push all your necessary forms through. It will ensure arrangement of all necessary documentation before your vehicle arrives at the port, although it may cost you a bit extra. To avoid timely and costly delays at the port, it is advisable to seek professional help in preparing the necessary documents for the Customs and meeting other formalities, which you would have had to do yourself otherwise.
An experienced shipping company having experience in shipping from the country of export to the United States and one which is fully insured should be hired. In case of any unforeseen accidents, it is necessary to make a check before hand whether the shipping company is fully insured or not. A certificate of Insurance naming you as the certificate holder must be obtained from the shipping company.
Before the car’s arrival, ensure that the undercarriage of the car is properly cleaned and there are no foreign particles attached to it. The United States department of agriculture, in order to ensure that the vehicle is free from all malicious pests which are not native to U.S., has a pre-requirement that the vehicle be free from all foreign soil.
For the required licensing and registration in your state, you should contact your local state department of Motor Vehicles. A label of certification identifying the vehicle’s manufacturer, manufacturing date etc. is required. This will also acknowledge the vehicle’s conformity to standards of federal safety at the time of manufacture.
While shipping the car you should make sure that there are no personal belongings in it. Shipping companies do not take liability for missing items and any personal items lying in the car will be susceptible to theft during transportation. With the above steps followed carefully, auto shipping to USA can be made quite less cumbersome and easier.
As I’ve mentioned before on my blog I’m going back to Turkey tomorrow… I have one little problem, my car. I live pretty much in the center of Jönköping, which means parking is really expensive, one month of parking close to my apartment cost me €150 which I believe is way to much. So I’ve got my car parked on a free parkingplace about 4km away.
The problem is that after I came back from Turkey we’ve had a snowstorm here… So I was expecting the worst. When I arrived I was surprised, I thought the car was not even gonna be visible, but it was. Even though it took me almost one whole hour of digging and digging before I finally could release my car from it’s prison of snow. I guess I’ll have muscle pain in my arms tomorrow from all the digging.
