A Cottonwood man was sentenced to 145 years in prison Tuesday after being convicted of firing a gun at federal officers in Tucson, officials said.
Jack Witt Voris, 47, was found guilty on Feb. 15 of six counts of assault on a federal officer and weapons offenses by a federal jury, according to a press release from the U.S. Attorneys Office, District of Arizona.
Officials said in the release, on Oct. 28, 2016, law enforcement agents arrived at a Tucson hotel to serve an arrest warrant on Voris. He was armed with a handgun and fired at the officers, but he missed, the press released stated.
After a five-hour standoff with the Pima County Sheriff's Department, Voris eventually surrendered to law enforcement.
"As a society by laws, we cannot tolerate assaults on our law enforcement officers," Elizabeth A. Strange, first assistant U.S. Attorney, said in the release. "Our office is committed to prosecuting these cases, and we thank all of the agencies that assisted in this important investigation."
When you think about it, the Doctor is a bit like a cat. He turns up where you least expect him. He has mysterious adventures out of sight of the human race. He always lands on his feet — eventually. And you suspect he can size you up with a single look.
Jenny Parks is a science illustrator, so when she decided to transform the good doctor into a feline menagerie, she opted for a realistic look. She went to a great deal of effort to match the breeds with the look and personality of each Doctor, and the results are bizarrely on-point. Now we're ready for the alternate reality Doctor who walks among Catkind.
The St. Louis Post Dispatch has been keeping tabs on Rep. Lacy Clay's (D-Mo.) impending divorce. Sadly, it was news - literally - to Clay's wife, Ivie.
And today, Ivie Clay released a stinging statement regarding her husband, whom she married in 1992 when he was a state senator. Turns out, Ivie and her children found out about the divorce only through the media.
“I and my children are devastated and embarrassed that my husband let us find out from the children’s friends and the media that he had filed for divorce, and mostly that he still has not contacted our children,” Ivie Clay said. “I would have wanted to prepare the children.
"This is a time of great sadness for my family and me. My wife and I have been discussing this situation for a number of months and this action should not have come as a surprise to anyone. Of course, my first concern is for our children, whom I love dearly, and for their peace & privacy. I will continue to be a devoted father to them, and I hope that the public will understand that this is a difficult, private family matter that will hopefully be resolved amicable and swiftly by all parties."
You go girl! Better off without the creep.
Lacy, you are a liar and you know it. Your kids are still waiting to hear from you.
Word of advice : Lacy Clay call Susan LaTourette Susan LaTourette stayed at home, in suburban Madison, Ohio, with their children. Then one day she was startled to receive a telephone call from her husband, Congressman Steve LaTourette (R-OH) to tell her "he had a girlfriend and wanted a divorce." LaTourette told the Hill she never really knew where her husband lived in Washington. "I think Washington corrupts people," she said. "He was a wonderful husband and father, the best I ever saw, until he went there. I told him I was trying to get him out of the dark side -- all that power and greed and people kissing up to them all the time. Now he's one of them. All they care about is getting reelected. I hate them all." In August, 2004, Susan LaTourette gave an interview for a Cleveland Ohio TV station's 6 o'clock news broadcast, which showed her at her home putting up her husband's opponent's signs. "The qualities I look for in a congressperson are truthfulness, honesty and decency," she explained. She also told the TV audience that she couldn't discuss her divorce proceedings, alluding to a confidentiality agreement. "I'm not allowed to talk about anything to do with our marriage or divorce." Nevertheless, she once again commented on the baleful influence of Washington on susceptible politicians: "Congressmen are gods. Senators are gods. And there are tons of aides and tons of lobbyists, and they kiss their butts and they love that. Power corrupts, and I think the longer you're there, the more corrupt you become."
Since 2009, Pantone has been pushing millions into online marketing to turn the color company into the cult of personality it is today. And maybe now, it’s paid off? Because you can now not just find your perfect bag by color. You can find it by Pantone swatch.
Redland London is now selling a new range of bags that exclusively uses Pantone shades for fabric dyes. You can’t get every obscure swatch–let alone Pantone’s oft-revolting Color of the Year–but many nice ones are there, including beeswax (14-0941), cabaret (18-2140), capri breeze (17-4735), castlerock (18-0201), loganberry (19-3622), mood indigo (19-4025), phantom (19-4205), and tango red (19-1761).
Each bag is made of a polyester blend. They come in four styles, with varying prices: a hold-all for $85, a large laptop bag for $90, a regular laptop bag for $70, and a mini backpack for $45. Sure, Pantone bags might be a bit of a hipster thing, but let’s put it this way: With your Pantone code written right on the label, at least you know for certain whether your bag will clash with your outfit or not. You can order one here.
A hard-line Islamist party in Pakistan has called for the death of the country’s Supreme Court judges responsible for overturning the death sentence of a Christian woman accused of blasphemy, Reuters reports.
“The patron in chief of TLP, Muhammad Afzal Qadri, has issued the edict that says the chief justice and all those who ordered the release of Asia deserve death,” party spokesman Ejaz Ashraf said, as cited by the news agency.
The Tehreek-e-Labaik (TLP) party called for the death of the chief justice and two other judges in Pakistan’s highest court after they spared the life of Asia Bibi, 47, who was convicted of blasphemy in 2010.
The party also demanded Prime Minister Imran Khan’s government be ousted following the court’s order.
The Supreme Court on Wednesday ruled in favor of the release of Bibi, who was eight years ago accused and sentenced for “insulting Islam.” As long as she faces no other charges, the woman should be released, the court ordered.
TLP two weeks ago organized a mass anti-blasphemy rally calling on Bibi to be executed as the court waited to release its verdict on her final appeal. The protests took part mainly in the city of Lahore, but demonstrations took place in other areas too, including Karachi and Rawalpindi.
Bibi’s case started when, according to her autobiography, she sought to get some drinking water out of a well on a hot fruit-picking day.
She was then told off by a Muslim neighbor, who turned to other Muslim women in the area to tell them the Christian devotee had dirtied the water by drinking from their cup. Several women called Bibi a “filthy Christian” and told her to convert to Islam.
She was then shoved and spat at, the autobiography claims. Days later, Bibi was accused of blasphemy. She has denied the charge.
Bibi’s case, the first in which a woman has been sentenced to death by hanging for blasphemy in Pakistan, has drawn widespread condemnation. Pope Benedict XVI was among those who calling for her to be freed in 2010.
Phil Mickelson: Phil always plays the weeks before a major championship, but when he goes walkin' in Memphis, it's not just for practice. In the past four years, Mickelson has two T-2s and a T-3 in this event. Plus, wouldn't it be just like Phil to put on a show to increase the chatter about his no-show at the U.S. Open next week.
Brooks Koepka: Koepka has cooled off the past couple weeks, but he's finished T-3 and T-2 at TPC Southwind the past two years. Also, I've got to give him a shoutout for getting me $20 off my next purchases of Michelob Light thanks to the two eagles he made at the Memorial. Thanks, Brooks. Just waiting for that hole-in-one now, big guy. . .
Billy Horschel: After a win at the AT&T Byron Nelson, Horschel hasn't done much the past two weeks, but he's finished in the top 10 in his past three trips to Memphis. And before that win in Dallas, he'd missed the cut in four consecutive events, so who ever knows with this guy?
Stewart Cink: The 2009 British Open champ is quietly putting together a solid season with 12 top-30 finishes in 18 starts. Surprisingly, that's only produced a pair of T-10s as his best finishes, but that changes this week at a place where he has a decent track record, including a T-5 in 2004. Picking him also led me to segue into a discussion about some local match-play shenanigans. Listen to the podcast for more. Or don't. Joel and I are just bitter.
Just missed: Adam Scott and Kevin Kisner.
Yahoo! lineup: Adam Scott, Phil Mickelson, Francesco Molinari, Brooks Koepka (Starters); Smylie Kaufman, Daniel Summerhays, Kevin Kisner, Stewart Cink (Bench).
Poland’s president decried an act that President Donald Trump signed recently that could help Holocaust survivors and heirs reclaim European property stolen during World War II.
Trump signed the Justice for Uncompensated Survivors Today act, or JUST act, on Wednesday, requiring the State Department to report annually to Congress what various European countries have done to compensate Holocaust survivors and their heirs, according to The Associated Press. Jewish advocacy groups hailed the act, but Polish leadership said it unfairly targets Poland and divides Polish society by placing the claims of Jews above non-Jews.
Polish President Andrzej Duda’s spokesman asserted that Poland should not be required to provide compensation for damage and theft caused by the Nazi regime. Poland’s foreign minister also argued the law is discriminatory.
“This position of the (U.S.) Congress is not good because it wants some privileges for the Jews, for the Jewish community, but not for the Poles. I think that the Poles who live in the U.S. may feel hurt by that,” Polish Foreign Minister Jacek Czaputowicz told the AP.
Non-Jewish Poles who fought against the Nazis and then resettled in America have no legislation to protect their claims on property that they left behind and that was subsequently taken by the Communists, Czaputowicz argued.
“Their property here remains without any settlement and nobody speaks on their behalf, only on the behalf of the Jews. That is not good because that divides our society,” he added.
The law does not specifically target Poland or give the U.S. authority to take actions against any country on the list, which is comprised of the countries that signed the Terezin Declaration. Poland, however, is the only country on the list that has not passed laws ensuring compensation for those who had property seized either by the Nazis or by the communists.

There really is only one way Game of Thrones could go out, and that's with a no holds barred blood bath.
Although even the most die hard fans might not be prepared for this finale, and neither were the cast who broke down after they finished reading the script.
As Variety reports, Francesca Orsi gave an insight into the final GoT table readings at the INTV Conference in Israel.
Orsi, HBO’s senior vice president of drama, said the cast had a quiet cry as their characters were killed off one by one.
"By the end, the last few words on the final script, the tears just started falling down. Then there was applause that lasted 15 minutes."
HBO execs also reinforced their post-GoT game plan during the conference, stating how for the first time in HBO history they will revisit a show once it is over with "three, four, five spinoffs".
And don’t worry: they will be in good hands with a budget just as eye watering as the original show.
The final series of Game of Thrones is set to return in 2019.

Kids are getting the red-carpet treatment at many hotels these days. As more parents bring their kids along for business trips so they can enjoy exploring the city together after hours or on weekends or scheduling a much-needed staycation, kid activities at hotels are on the rise. Cookies and milk, anyone?
Individual Hard Rock Hotels have created one-of-a-kind experiences for the littles to teenagers through its Hard Rock Roxity Kids Club. Youngsters from ages three to nine can take center stage as part of the Roxtars band. The Little Big Club features games and crafts for the little ones and even teens can enjoy their own hangout with a backstage experience that includes games, TVs, activities, and music.
At the Peninsula in New York, young chefs can join the hotel’s culinary team for a tour of the kitchen and choose from three activities including baking cookies from scratch, cupcake decorating or creating healthy smoothies as part of The Peninsula Academy. At $275 for one child, each also receives an apron and chef’s hat to remember the experience at lunch or afternoon tea is included, too.
Hotels know they need to cater to their younger travelers and cooking camps are an easy way to engage them while letting their parents have a night out on their own.
In Chicago, the Fairmont Chicago, Millennium Park hotel offers a sitter-supervised Kids Cookie Camp on Saturday evenings from during the first few weeks in December to celebrate the holiday season. During cookie camp, the children bake alongside the Fairmont pastry team to create a dozen gourmet holiday cookies to take home with them. During the evening, they’ll eat a kid-centric winter themed dinner, watch movies, do crafts, and play games.
While a hotel stay isn’t required to take advantage of the evening camp that takes place from 5-9 pm and ranges in cost price from $90-330 (depending on how many nights one books), families can add a hotel stay which includes overnight accommodations in a Fairmont Chicago guestroom, admission to the Cookie Camp, and a buffet-style breakfast for the entire family the following morning.
Cows in towns – outrageous or acceptable?
Lawmakers are considering a law to limit the number of animals that can be kept in a town. Some say it’s a return to Soviet-style agriculture, others that it will stop people from bringing their herds to town with them.
It’s expected the Russian State Duma will discuss the bill this autumn. So, who will benefit from it?
Zelenokumsk is a town in Southern Russia’s Stavropol region with a population of just over 30,000. Here you can choose to live in an apartment building or in your own house. For many locals, breeding cattle is their additional, and sometimes main, source of income.
Neighbors of one of the farms in the middle of the town are outraged at how animals are treated by the owners. The family keeps 15 cows, but don’t really seem to be taking proper care of them.
“It’s the smell in the first place. It’s a terrible smell. When it’s raining it’s the worst stink, and it never completely goes away,” Olga Dovgaleva, a neighbor said.
However, not all family farms are the same. Dmitry Polevoy keeps more than 100 pigs, but they are well-cared for, so the neighbors never complain.
According to government data, the average number of cows on southern Russia’s family farms is 1.7. But there is no limit to how many animals can be kept within in towns and villages.
Deputies in the Stavropol regional Duma propose to introduce nationwide limits. Lawmakers say 10 to 12 animals per farm is enough, and only 1% of farms will be affected.
“We have to put everyone under the same conditions. If you’d like to have a larger cattle farm – you’re welcome to move out of the town and into a field. You can keep as many animals as you want in a field,” said Aleksandr Shiyanov, Stavropol Duma deputy.
Some fear that the measures could harm poorer families in the midst of the economic crisis. However, supporters say the law will help prevent the spread of disease – and keep the air fresher.

For investors, Haque thinks it's key to be discerning about investing in rapidly growing industries. "Any time when a given sector gets hot, there's a lot of me-too companies that show up," Haque says. Outside of work, he likes to spend time with his four grandkids and teach them extra math and science to prepare them for a technology-driven world. He is also involved with church-related nonprofit volunteering and is on the board of trustees of Biola University.
