LOS ANGELES - Lindsay Lohan's bad luck with cars continues after a woman who claims she was struck by the actress' sports car sued over her injuries Wednesday. |
Nubia Del Carmen Preza claims she was struck by Lohan's Maserati while walking through a West Hollywood intersection in September 2010. |
Preza's lawsuit states she has suffered "disabling and serious personal injuries, pain, suffering and anguish" and that she is seeking damages for all her medical expenses and lost time at work. A call to her attorney, Gregory Picco, seeking additional details was not immediately returned. |
It is the second lawsuit filed against Lohan this month involving an automobile mishap. A paparazzo sued Lohan Jan. 10, claiming that he was struck in January 2010 by a vehicle in which Lohan was riding. Grigor Balyan claims he was trying to shoot pictures of the actress in Hollywowhen he was hit. |
Preza's lawsuit states Lohan was driving when she was hit on the afternoon of Sept. 1, 2010, at an intersection just south of the Sunset Strip. At the time, Lohan lived near the intersection. |
Lohan's spokesman Steve Honig said neither Lohan nor her attorneys had been served with the lawsuit and could not comment on it. |
The model and actress remains on probation for a 2007 drunken driving case filed after she was arrested twice that year on suspicion of driving while impaired. |
One of the incidents sparked two civil lawsuits after Lohan chased a vehicle she thought was carrying her former assistant on Pacific Coast Highway. One of the cases has settled. The other, filed by three men who were in the SUV Lohan was driving, may go to trial in March. |
Lohan's attorney in that case, Ed McPherson, has said the men had plenty of chances to get out of the vehicle and called the case "absurd." |
The "Mean Girls" star has received two positive probation reports since a judge ordered her to perform weekly morgue cleanup duties in November. the actress may be off supervised probation by the end of March. |
GENEVA / PARIS: An estimated 90 migrants are feared to have drowned off the coast of Libya after a smuggler’s boat capsized early on Friday, leaving three known survivors and 10 bodies washed up on shore, the International Organisation for Migration (IOM) said. |
The Foreign Office (FO) confirmed the incident and said that up to 11 Pakistanis were among the people who drowned. Its statement contradicted earlier statements by an IOM official who said that most of the dead could be Pakistanis. |
FO spokesman Mohammad Faisal said that Pakistani diplomats had reached Libya’s coastal area concerned to collect more details. He said that Pakistani authorities would try to bring back the bodies of the Pakistanis killed in the tragedy. |
Earlier in the day, IOM spokeswoman Olivia Headon had quoted survivors as claiming that most of the migrants on board were Pakistanis, who made up a growing number of those attempting the hazardous voyage across the Mediterranean to Italy from North Africa. “They have given an estimate of 90 people who drowned during t... |
Ten bodies had washed up on Libyan shores, two of them Libyans and the rest Pakistanis, she said. |
“I believe the Libyan coastguard is looking for other survivors off the coast,” she added. |
Another IOM spokesman, Leonard Doyle, told a media organisation that the boat was believed to have left shore on Thursday before capsizing early on Friday morning. |
“They (the migrants) are lured there by social media. They get onto a phone, they are promised El Dorado, they think life is going to be great. And before they know it, they are getting into the hands of awful criminal, extorting people — smugglers, traffickers, this dreadful, shocking torture,” he said. |
Security officials in the western Libyan town of Zuwara said two Libyans and one Pakistani had been rescued from the boat. They also confirmed the recovery of 10 bodies, mostly Pakistanis, but gave no further information. |

Letter: Is a Brown County Board compromise on prayer so hard to reach? |
LeBlanc: Many of us are passionate about our beliefs, but does that mean not being civil and respectful with each other? |
GREEN BAY - I first read about the issue the Brown County Board needed to decide as to how to open their meeting in the Press-Gazette. |
Opening with a prayer may offend some members. I realize our county is more diverse, however, are we becoming too politically correct? It seems we are finding more issues that divide us than what can bring us together. We have color, creed, sexual orientation. Are we red, blue or purple? We just cannot listen and respe... |
The County Board spent 45 minutes debating this issue and then sent it to committee for review. Is this that difficult to come to a compromise? A generic offering, or as suggested, a different faith representative at each meeting. I believe we have moved forward with several ecumenical partnerships that address housing... |
Look at what the Salvation Army does for this community. Our elected county supervisors need to address issues that affect our common good. Safe enforcement of our laws and responsible use of our tax dollars. Freedom of religion right and separation of church and state are cherished. Many of us are passionate about our... |
On the April day in 2011 when K.J. Wright was drafted in the fourth round by the Seahawks, he made a little prediction. |
If perfection can be bettered, than it’s possible that is what has happened for Wright in Seattle. |
The Mississippi State grad — he got the call that he was being drafted while he was in line to get his degree in criminology — quickly emerged as a key player on one of the best defenses in NFL history, winning a Super Bowl ring in his third year, while also getting married and starting a family. |
So when he entered NFL free agency for the first time in his career eight years later, it was going to take a lot to make Wright leave. |
And before the first day when players could officially sign with other teams had passed, the Seahawks made it easy for Wright to stay, offering him a two-year deal worth a reported $15.5 million. |
Thursday, Wright told the Seattle Times he couldn’t be happier. |
The agreement puts a happy capper on what has been a challenging year for Wright from a football standpoint. One of the team’s iron men during his first seven seasons with the Seahawks, Wright suffered a knee injury in the third preseason game against Minnesota that hampered him most of the year. He missed six games af... |
“Damn, this is the worst timing,” Wright said he recalls of what he thought when he had the surgery entering a contract year and with his NFL future uncertain. |
Wright — who had missed only five games in the first seven years of his career — came back to play three games at midseason before again shutting it down, saying he wasn’t yet 100 percent. |
He finally returned for good for the final two regular season games and the playoff contest against Dallas, with an interception and seven tackles against the Cowboys proving to himself he was finally back. |
But whether the team agreed was another matter, and Wright was forlorn in the locker room afterward not only because of Seattle’s loss but also because he had no idea if it would be the last time he would be in a Seattle locker room. |
Ultimately, the Seahawks agreed, though not that they ever really need convincing. It just needed to make sense financially. |
That Wright is signing for two years instead of the four years and $27 million on his previous contract surely helped ease his way to stay with the Seahawks. What also helped is Wright’s team-first attitude and leadership. Seattle has let other big-name veterans leave whose time they felt maybe had simply passed both i... |
That isn’t the case with Wright, who will now return to again give Seattle one of the best inside linebacking tandems in the NFL working alongside Wagner. |
Wagner’s contract expires following the 2019 season, and he said following the Seahawks’ playoff loss at Dallas that he felt they needed to keep Wright, saying he thought it would be the key to making a long playoff run in 2019 — one of several times he had lobbied publicly for Wright’s return, even saying he would loo... |
Suddenly, in the span of a few hours Thursday morning, the Seahawks offensive line fell into place. |
When the day began, the second of the NFL free agency signing period, there remained the question of who would fill the team’s guard positions in 2019 in the wake of the departure of J.R. Sweezy to Arizona earlier in the week and uncertainty over whether D.J Fluker would return. |
But then it was revealed that the Seahawks were signing nine-year veteran Mike Iupati away from Arizona to replace Sweezy — a trade with the NFC West rival Cardinals, in a sense — and shortly after came even bigger news, that Fluker was also set to return. |
Details of the contracts of each had yet to be revealed as of Thursday afternoon. But the bigger news for the moment was that the two signings appeared to set Seattle’s OL heading into the 2019 season with Fluker returning at the right guard spot he manned last season, Iupati stepping in for Sweezy at left guard and th... |
Seattle also put a second-round tender on restricted free agent George Fant, who played a valuable tight end/eligible tackle role last season, essentially assuring he will return, and also still has on the roster the likes of Ethan Pocic, Jordan Simmons, Jordan Roos, Joey Hunt and Elijah Nkansah, who all have seen acti... |
The incident happened at a mobile home park in North Myrtle Beach. |
NORTH MYRTLE BEACH, SC (WMBF) - Police took two guns from the home of the North Myrtle Beach man who shot another man to death Tuesday night. A hand gun and a long rifle were taken for evidence, a police report states. |
Randy Buchanan, 50 was taken into police custody and released after the fatal shooting. The Solicitor's Office determined the shooting may fall under the state's "Castle Doctrine." |
Joshua Shannon McCoy, 35, died following the shooting, Coroner Michelle McSpadden confirmed. An autopsy completed Wednesday determined McCoy died from a single gunshot wound to the chest. |
The incident happened at a mobile home park on Tams Drive just before 8 p.m., said Chief Phil Webster with the North Myrtle Beach Police Department. Buchanan shot a man in the chest through a closed glass door that was separating the two men, according to Pat Dowling, public information officer. |
Webster said the department got the call at 8 p.m. Horry County Fire Rescue responded to the shooting. |
Representatives from the Solicitor's Office also responded to the scene, and based on their initial findings and narratives, they advised the NMB Department of Public Safety not to charge Buchanan, until further investigation into the events surrounding the shooting, based on the Protection of Persons and Property Act,... |
According to Horry County Solicitor Jimmy Richardson, the Castle Doctrine lays out a case for self-defense, and doesn't apply just to someone being inside your home, but any place you have a right to be. |
Dowling said an investigation by NMB DPS is ongoing to determine the nature of the relationship between Buchanan and McCoy, and exactly what happened during the incident itself. |
Dowling said had Buchanan been charged overnight, it could have been for a lesser degree of murder or involuntary manslaughter. |
Reporter Brennan Somers talked to Buchanan about the incident - tune in to WMBF News today beginning at 4 p.m. for the full report. |

Asking the Clergy: What does your faith say about caring for the sick? |
“Ensuring that everyone can obtain the care they need, when they need it, right in the heart of the community,” is a theme of World Health Day, which is observed by the World Health Organization on April 7. This week’s clergy discuss the role of the faithful in caring for the sick. . |
We realize that when we are healthy, we can concentrate on family and work and other things that are important to us. But most significantly, a healthy body allows you to concentrate on your soul, enabling you to fulfill your divine mission in this world and live a meaningful life. This is true, as well, of the need to... |
The sick among us are dear to the heart of God. The gospel narratives detail Jesus’ movement among us — always with an eye to the cross (and indeed beyond the cross, by his resurrection and ascension to glory). Throughout his ministry, as Jesus encountered the sick, Scripture records that he was moved with compassion a... |
As we care for the sick, we manifest Jesus. Our attention to the sick is another means through which the Jesus of history becomes the Christ of faith. In the early days of the church, the body of believers faithfully healed the sick in the name of Jesus. Whether the sickness is in the body, mind or spirit, the church c... |
Islam teaches that every soul that comes to this world is vulnerable to sickness and death.

The basic principles of Islam are founded on individual and collective m... |
Visiting and taking care of someone who is sick is obligatory for Muslims. On numerous occasions the prophet Muhammad illuminated the virtues of visiting the sick by stating that the angels send blessings on anyone who visits and helps to ease the anguish of a person suffering from an illness. Islam stresses the import... |

A homeowner who was once underwater by more than $40,000 obtained relief when the Home Affordable Refinancing Program was enhanced this past year, according to Investor's Business Daily. |
The publication interviewed Eric Waugh who was stuck paying 6% on a 30-year refinanced loan for a $416,000 mortgage. His home is now appraised at $369,000, but he bought the house when it was valued at $540,000. |
Waugh spent the past two years trying to refinance and grew frustrated when his underwater status barred him from most refinancing programs. |
The article focuses on the most recent wave of HARP refinancing activity, which is now reaching the severely underwater mortgage population. |
Sonia next on disqualification list? |
BJP is seeking experts? opinion on whether she can lose her LS seat for heading the national advisory panel. |
First it was Jaya Bachchan and then Amar Singh. Now it is Congress president Sonia Gandhi's turn. |
Leader of Opposition LK Advani has asked legal experts in the BJP to study all aspects to find whether Sonia can be disqualified from the Lok Sabha for being Chairperson of the National Advisory Committee and the Rajiv Gandhi Foundation. |
This was informed by the party spokesman Vijay Kumar Malhotra after a meeting of the BJP Parliamentary Party. |
Advani was responding to suggestions raised in this regard by party MPs, including former Rajya Sabha Deputy Chairperson Najma Heptulla, during the hour-long meeting. |
"After studying all the legal aspects, BJP will take the next course", Malhotra said when asked whether the party would move the Election Commission in this regard. |
The move comes a day after the poll panel recommended disqualification of Samajwadi Party MP and actress Jaya Bachchan on the ground that she was holding an office of profit as the Chairperson of UP Film Development Board. |
A similar petition seeking action against Samajwadi Party General Secretary Amar Singh has also been filed before the Election Commission. |
I like reading opinion pages. Editorials of the local papers and the New York Times. Friedman, Herbert, Brooks, Collins, Dowd, Krugman and even Kristof. About the only opinion writer I avoid is George Will: way too predictable. |
Admittedly, these writings and writers influence me and what I get inspired to blog about. As a volunteer blogger, inspiration matters quite a bit. |
Sometimes, though, weeks go by without that inspirational spark. I have hundreds of thoughts, but none seem worth sharing or adding to the already over saturated world of clouds. |
But the pressure is great. Without MY words, a vacuum will exist. Readers, listeners, watchers will go to another channel, station, website or blog. Irrelevance will seep into the spot once reserved for me. |
Yesterday, listening to the President explain, for maybe the 50th time, that taking his time to decide about adding troups into Afghanistan was not a sign of weakness or ambivalence, corroborated this idea. With nothing to say, vacuum fillers challenge anything, EVERYTHING, even thoughtfulness and consideration. |
I am not paid to blog, therefore I need not join the compelled vacuum fillers. Sometimes nothing said means exactly that. |
Prom season is officially in full swing, with photos of dresses and tuxes being posted all over social media. |
But one young man got to go to both a prom and a gun show over the weekend, and the photo of his experience has gone viral. |
Former NFL player Jay Feely took to his Twitter account to wish his daughter and her date a great time at prom. It looks like a simple enough photo until you look closely at his right hand. |
The photo sparked a heated debate online, with some saying it was all in good fun while others said he went too far. |
Feely later tweeted that the photo was intended to be a joke and that he takes gun safety seriously. The gun wasn’t loaded and didn’t have a clip in it, he said. |
