Dear Abby: A number of years ago, it came out that my brother-in-law had raped and molested his two daughters and two granddaughters. It tore our family apart. Although my sister said she intended to divorce him, she never did. She also didn’t report it — so he was never convicted of the crime — but we all, including my sister, knew it was true. Since then, my sister has disowned her daughters, my mother and me. She still interacts with her son and his family. Abby, how can we get past this? Our family was always close, and now this.

PHOENIX (AP) — Maricopa County Sheriff Paul Penzone has been an outspoken critic of allowing the distribution of blueprints to create plastic guns with 3D printers. If that happened, Penzone says it would be an irresponsible action that can't be reversed. On Tuesday, a federal judge in Seattle stopped the scheduled release of blueprints to make untraceable and undetectable 3D-printed guns. An Austin, Texas company had reached a settlement with the federal government in June allowing it to make the plans for the guns available for download. Читать дальше...

They could be used to convert algae into a mass-produced, economical biofuel to be used in cars, trucks and airplanes.

Tuesday’s trade deadline passed without the A’s adding a starter or reliever, and general manager David Forst said he and his boss, Billy Beane, will consider waiver-wire deals in August. It’s a tough way to keep existing, relying so heavily on the bullpen to bail out the rotation... Читать дальше...
