[CBS News] The 7th Circuit Court of Appeals on Sunday overturned a lower court ruling staying the execution of Daniel Lewis Lee. The execution, scheduled for Monday in Indiana, would be the first federal execution in 17 years.
"The plaintiffs' APA claim lacks any arguable legal basis and is therefore frivolous," the court said in its Sunday ruling.
Lee, 47, is a former white supremacist who in 1996 robbed and murdered a family of three, including their 8-year-old daughter. The family of Lee's victims filed a petition to delay the execution because they wanted to attend, but feared traveling to Indiana during the coronavirus pandemic. A judge on Friday had granted the petition, but Sunday's ruling overturned the stay.
The family said they will appeal the decision to the Supreme Court.
"The federal government has put this family in the untenable position of choosing between their right to witness Danny Lee's execution and their own health and safety," Baker Kurrus, an attorney representing the family, said in a statement.

[Daily Mail, Where America Gets Its News] Funny thing, that. I always had Velma and Shaggy pegged as the heteros. Daphne seemed to spend a lot of time checking out Velma's bosom. I can't remember the name of the nonentity handsome guy character. I'm pretty sure he's asexual. But I'm sure that when all the phony ghosts are unmasked, and Daphne and Whatsisname are off to the malt shoppe, Velma and Shaggy are rockin' the old Scooby Van while Scoobs is taking pictures to post on Reddit.

Not a judgement, just to help us get a better sense of the McCloskeys as people.
[IsraelTimes] Mark McCloskey reportedly destroyed beehives whose honey was set to be harvested for Rosh Hashanah; community rabbi: ’The children were crying’.
A St. Louis couple who gained notoriety last month for brandishing guns at Black Lives Matters protesters passing in front of their mansion have been reported to have previously clashed with a synagogue next door.
According an extensive report about Patricia and Mark McCloskey’s in the St. Louis Post Dispatch, the Jewish Central Reform Congregation in the Missouri city has been a target of the couple’s many legal battles with neighbors and acquaintances.
Mark McCloskey reportedly "destroyed beehives placed just outside of the mansion’s northern wall by the neighboring Jewish Central Reform Congregation and left a note saying he did it, and if the mess wasn’t cleaned up quickly he would seek a restraining order and attorneys fees."
"The congregation had planned to harvest the honey and pick apples from trees on its property for Rosh Hashanah," the report said.
"The children were crying in school... It was part of our curriculum," Rabbi Susan Talve of the congregation told the local paper.
The report included a photo of the note threatening legal action that McCloskey left after destroying the hives.
McCloskey has previously sued his employer, his neighbors and his siblings, according to the story.
Apparently he is a bit of a curmudgeon, which changes his right to bear arms not a bit.
Central Reform Congregation has played a role in previous protests over racial injustice.
In 2014, the synagogue offered itself as a sanctuary for people protesting the police killing of Michael Brown, an unarmed Black 18-year-old, in nearby Ferguson, Missouri. The extended protests in Ferguson represented a breakout moment for the then-inchoate Black Lives Matter movement.
When protests erupted after an officer was acquitted of murder charges in a different case in 2017, the synagogue again offered refuge to protesters.
Both of which stupidities should have endeared the synagogue to the McCloskeys rather than otherwise — they claimed in interviews to support BLM, just not on their street.

OK, I can guess why he did it - and so can anybody ever been near to a beehive.

(a) I'm sure they were quickly pacified with store bought honey.

So he's an ass, he's a lawyer, of course he is an ass. But these are separate instances. His home was invaded, they tore down the get leading into his yard. The thugs were not there to sell Amway, they were there to do damage and hurt them. His threat was very real, very justified. Did the mob get arrested as well??? Kinda doubt it.

If he'd have been a living saint, the Soros-backed Circuit Attorney would still be after him, so, yeah, these new revelations don't move the dial in any significant way.

Gov. Denny Tamaki says local officials were told of 61 cases among Marines at Marine Corps Air Station Futenma and Camp Hansen in Okinawa
Officials say the bases are now in lockdown
Tamaki is demanding better disease prevention measures, a halt of new military personal from the U.S., sealed off bases and more accountability
' It is extremely regrettable that the infections are rapidly spreading among U.S personnel when we Okinawans are doing our utmost to contain the infections'
#2
Okinawan Natives (who are not, repeat Not, ethnic Japanese) want the US bases closed so they can farm there -- the Commie Sympathizers in Organized Labor and Local Government want them gone for idealogical reasons. At one time about 30% of Okinawa was a US base after WW2.... So this is an ongoing story.

If NASCAR attacks conservatives they won't pick up liberal viewers.
NBA already has support from the left and wouldn't gain any more.
I don't know about NFL. We'll see when games start again and half the players kneel to the national anthem but stand for the black national anthem. I suspect they'll try to hide that from the cameras but everyone has a cell phone with camera so they can't actually hide.
[Jpost] "We need to be much more sophisticated than just analyzing the number of new cases, severe cases and deaths," said Nadav Davidovitch.
Even after extensive effort by the Health Ministry, researchers and health professionals often do not have enough access to complete, raw data sets to make important decisions during the coronavirus (aka COVID19 or Chinese Plague) ...the twenty first century equivalent of bubonic plague, only instead of killing off a third of the population of Europe it kills 3.4 percent of those who notice they have it. It seems to be fond of the elderly, especially Iranian politicians and holy men... crisis, according to Nadav Davidovitch, director of the School of Public Health at Ben-Gurion University of the Negev.

I didn't research the scientists involved, but I wonder if they have ever had children in school themselves. Our experience was that the kids brought home, and shared, an inordinate number of colds and digestive bugs.

That's my experience with children and grandchildren, James. However, this is a novel coronavirus. If it can be uncommonly bad, it could also be uncommonly not-so-bad.

#1,2 In Israel we opened before Germany - including schools. And by the end of the month we had thousands of cases: both students and teachers, and student families - Google it.
The reason to the above results is that Germans run a con. Instead of checking for viral RNA, they checked for antibodies. But it's too early for antibodies - give it a couple of weeks.
