BAGHDAD — At first, a car bomb seemed the only explanation for the huge blast on Thursday on one of Baquba’s main thoroughfares that killed a pro-American Sunni militia leader, an Iraqi police captain, a local politician, and five other people. |
But Iraqi security officials soon found evidence suggesting another theory. |
There was a pair a legs — from a woman, the officials said — sheared from the rest of her body and lying near the blast site, among the dead and the 30 wounded. |
And there were the perforations in some victims from shrapnel that appeared to come from ball bearings that often are used in high-powered explosive vests worn by suicide bombers. |
An explosion a month ago before a cluster of police officers in central Baquba also was so huge, some witnesses said that it had to have been caused by a car bomb. In that case a female suicide bomber carried out the attack. |
This time the target was Naim Abdul Jabbar al-Dulaimi, the leader of an Awakening militia group in western Baquba, according to Abu Muhammed, one of the militia leaders. |
Mr. Dulaimi was killed, he said, when the bomb detonated at 6 p.m. in front of the Rukn al-Azam restaurant, a popular hangout for Baquba policemen nestled among a crowded marketplace. |
If the explosion proves to have been carried out by a female suicide bomber it will be at least the 16th time that a woman has donned a bomb and exploded herself in Diyala Province since last year. |
Wearing billowy, black head-to-toe garments, the female bombers have been able to conceal powerful explosives and slip into crowded areas too heavily guarded for a male suicide bomber to ease through undetected. While men often undergo physical searches, Islamic rules do not allow male security officers to pat down wom... |
It was not immediately clear how many of Mr. Dulaimi’s guards and militia fighters were among the victims in Baquba. The dead also included two police officers, and six police officers were among the wounded. A local council member was also killed, according to an Iraqi security official. |
Pro-American militia fighters also came under attack in the Sunni enclave of Adhamiya, in northern Baghdad, early on Thursday. |
At least three of the Sunni militiamen were killed by gunmen speeding through the district and waving machine guns, according to witnesses. |
In the first attack, the gunmen shot and wounded Ahmed Ali al-Neimi in the shoulder as he guarded one checkpoint. His cousin Omar Raad, standing guard at the same checkpoint, returned fire. But the gunmen fired back, killing Mr. Raad. |
Two other Awakening guards were killed in Adhamiya, according to an official at the Interior Ministry. Bassim al-Azawi, a leader of the Adhamiya Awakening, said he believed that the attackers either had been from outside Adhamiya or had recently returned after being pushed out of the neighborhood after the invasion. |
Riyadh Muhammed and Abeer Mohammed contributed reporting from Baghdad, and an Iraqi employee of The New York Times from Diyala Province. |
Whatever Happened to ... Lipani’s Bakery? |
Lipani’s sold goodies like cookies and brownies, but the main business was bread. The business may be gone, but the memories live on. |
Lipani’s Bakery was one of the many Italian bakeries in the Plymouth-Lyell avenues area and it was known for its bread and sandwich rolls. |
Generations of the Lipani family worked there and generations of customers shopped at the bakery, which was around for most of the 20th century. A fire heavily damaged the business late in 1988, but the bakery reopened again more than a year later. |
Lipani’s also sold goodies like cookies and brownies, but the main business was bread. |
His grandfather, Frank Lipani, started the business in 1902, a few years after moving to the area from his native Sicily. The business began in the family home at 48 Jay St. and expanded to nearby North Plymouth Avenue in 1963. |
Lipani’s started as a small store that sold cold cuts, mozzarella and provolone cheeses and more, along with a small bakery operation, said Fran Lipani. The Lyell-Plymouth neighborhood was a tight-knit one largely made up of Italian families, and Lipani’s was right in the heart of the action. |
Whatever Happened to ... 'I Love Downtown'? |
Whatever Happened to ... the notorious Suicide Hill? |
Eventually, Frank Lipani’s sons — Emilio, Sam, John, Bert and Mike —took over. “They all worked to make bread and pizza,” John Lipani, Fran’s brother, posted on Facebook. “My Aunt Jenny and her husband, Mike, ran the store on Jay Street.” By 1975, the next generation was in charge, including brothers John and Fran Lipa... |
Dozens of people posted memories of Lipani’s on Facebook. |

Long-time Brave Terry Pendleton will join the team’s Hall of Fame next month. |
Pendleton and Hugh Duffy, an outfielder who played mostly in the 19th century, will join 33 others in the Braves Hall during the Chop Fest Gala on Jan. 18 at the Coca-Cola Roxy within The Battery Atlanta. |
Pendleton played third base for the Braves from 1991-94 and part of the 1996 season and was on the team’s coaching staff from 2003-17. He spent last season as a special assistant for the team. |
Pendleton likely is best remembered as a key component in the Braves’ 1991 “worst to first” season. He signed as a free agent in the offseason and then won the National League MVP award and the league batting title in his first season with the team. He was runner-up in MVP voting and won a Gold Glove the next season, w... |
Duffy played for the franchise in Boston from 1892-1900. He won NL home-run titles in 1894 and 1897 and ranks second in franchise history in batting average (.336) and stolen bases (331). He also ranks seventh in RBIs (927). |
The gala is part of two days of Chop Fest activities at SunTrust Park and The Battery Atlanta from Jan. 18-19. For more information, go to www.braves.com/chopfest. |

ED is also probing into the procedures followed by the Congress-led UPA governments (2004-14). |
The CAG had in a 2013 report on Air India said that the over-generous expansion of entitlements beyond genuine requirements for point-to-point flights, such as India-Dubai, did not provide a level playing field for Air India. |
NEW DELHI: The Enforcement Directorate (ED) is investigating bilateral air services agreements signed with West Asian countries between 2001 and 2012 as well as aircraft purchases by the state owned Air India during that period, said people with knowledge of the matter. Besides examining the “policy decisions” taken by... |
The investigation, which follows an audit report and inquiries by the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI), will also look into the impact that the bilateral agreements had on the operations of debt-laden Air India. |
The carrier is currently seeking yet another government bailout after a privatisation effort came to nought earlier this year. |
Abu Dhabi, Dubai and Sharjah are members of the seven-emirate UAE. Sources told ET that the documents along with comments of airlines made at the time have been sought to “investigate whether any exceptions” were made to “benefit” some companies. |
At the time of negotiations over bilaterals, the ministry typically seeks the views of Indian carriers as to whether they need flying rights with a particular country or not. The ED sources cited above added that the agencies are also looking into allegations made by a former joint secretary of the civil aviation minis... |
Air India and Indian Airlines had signed a deal in 2006 to purchase 111 planes from Boeing and Airbus between 2008 and 2017 for a list price of $11 billion as part of their expansion plans. The two state-owned carriers merged in 2007. |
The documents received so far are being examined to see if any “rules were relaxed” to illegally benefit private entities, the persons said. The officials under the scanner are not posted in the aviation ministry now, sources said. |
The Comptroller and Auditor General (CAG) had in a 2013 report on Air India said that the over-generous expansion of entitlements beyond genuine requirements for point-to-point flights, such as India-Dubai, did not provide a level playing field for Air India. The report also said that the state-owned carrier’s interest... |
Miller joins next month as media manager, looking after PR for the retail giant’s food offer. She has worked at the London Mayor’s office for the past 13 years, where she was most recently a senior press officer. |
Stepping in for Lucy Lowe, who is on maternity leave and is expected to return to a new role at the retailer, she will work within the corporate team. |
Tom Hoskin, group media director at Tesco, explained that food was one of four key areas of focus specifically overseen by the media team, alongside ‘multi-channel leadership’, ‘Tesco and society’ and ‘people’, which focuses on Tesco as an employer. |
Pointing to the relaunch of the Tesco Finest brand last autumn as an example, he added: "She will cover PR on everything to do with food, from where it is sourced to the way we present the brands that we have. We chose Rebecca because she is exceptionally talented with a real passion for the work and lots of ideas." |
The Mayor’s Office confirmed Miller’s departure, adding that it had recruited internally to fill a vacant senior press officer role. |
Last month PRWeek revealed that Tesco was looking to introduce a new high-level planner role as part of a move to build "a properly functioning comms global network." |
Under the ocean surface, a world of sound comes to life. No, it’s not a plaice playing bass, or a carp on the harp – it’s a symphony of noises both natural and manmade. The haunting song of the humpback whale and the sharp clatter of snapping shrimp mix with the rumble of motors and high-pitched naval sonar. |
Blue Planet II scientific advisor Steve Simpson will be exploring this soundscape at New Scientist Live on Friday 21 September. Simpson will share his pioneering techniques for listening to the ocean, mapping the sounds of the seas, and deciphering the language of fish. What is the lionfish saying with its roar? Why do... |
Simpson will address these and other questions, including how sea creatures are faring in an ocean that is getting noisier due to increased shipping and oil extraction. He’ll also discuss his efforts to manage human noise pollution in the waters of the world. |
Simpson’s work on bioacoustics was featured on Blue Planet II, but “there’s so much more to tell,” he says. |
New Scientist Live is our award-winning festival of ideas and discoveries at the ExCeL London. The four-day event will feature more than 110 speakers giving thought-provoking talks on everything from the secrets of the red squirrel genome to the life and death of London’s blue whale. |
