Joe Jackson, 59, who drove trucks and taxis, also believed an attorney was trying to steal his invention, hts family said. · • "I believe · he just snapped," son Darrin Jackson, 39, told the Chicago Sun-Times. "I believe he was just frustrated." At the end of the bloody, 45-minute attack, three employees of the law firmincluding one attorney, Michael R. McKenna, whose business card Jackson kept in his pocket - were dead and another wounded. SWAT - snipers killed Jackson, shoot~ ing him in the face .and chest as he held a hostage. Investigators were trying to determine whether Jackson had been McKenna's client, police Superintendent Phil Cline said. Jackson sought help from attorneys a few years ago to get something patented, his family told the newspaper in Sunday editions. "He went to them, he trusted them," niece Brenda Jackson, referring to the attorneys. "He said, 'This is go}lna pay off big."' · McKenna · researched it and told Jackson that it was already patented," the paper reported. On Friday, Jackson forced a security guard at gunpoint to the 38th floor offices of intellectual property and patent law firm .

The niece said someone at McKenna's office hung up on a phone call from him. He tried to enter the office at least one other time Friday, b_ut was turned away because he did not have an appointment, police said. "Under pressure ... who knows how you will react?" she told the Sun-Times. "You really don'tknow."

Her husband, ~ Leib, told the Chicago Tnbune that Jackson ordered his wife at gunpoint to identify McKenna. "He didn't even know who Mr. McKenna was," he said. "He was so oblivious, she had to tell him who he was looking for. He had a gun to her head." In a statement, John S. Mortimer, the firm's managing partner, called the attack "brutal and senseless."

Astronauts take stock of Discovery's heat shield BY RASHA MADKOUR ,ASSOCIATED PRESS WRITER HOUSTON Space shuttle Discovery,.s heat shield looks to be in good health so far, NASA managers said Sunday, although it will be at least two days before engineers can rule out any possible damage from the program's first night launch in four years. "So far so good." said . lead flight director Tony Ceccacs.i as Discovery's astronauts wrapped- up a meticulous inspection of the shuttle. looking for any possible damage from liftoff. As expec ted , small piece> of foam debris and ice fell off Discovery's externa l fuel tank- during Satuntay night's launch , but they didn ' t appear to ' trike the shuttle, said deputy . 'huttle program J manager John Shannon, chairman of the mission management team. · Because Discovery was launched in the dark, NASA technicians weren't able to capture the same sharp photos as they did during last three shuttle launches. Still, they were able to take better than expected images from the illumination of the shuttle \ solid rocket boosters and engines during the first few minutes of flight. They also relied on radar, although one out of the three radars failed during the launch. NASA may have to wait an extra day to look at images taken from the solid rocket boosters. An accident on one of the two ships used in recovering the boosters from the ocean postponed the retrieval by more than a day. "The team sees nothing of concern at this time ," Shannon said. NASA engineers were studying ·four low-momentum readings from sensors on the leading edge ·of the shuttle 's wing about two minutes after liftoff. · "I don't know if they're strikes. In the past, there's a lot of folks who think it's just a shock wave passing over ... or there's some settling ," Shannon said. · "We've see n exactly the same thing on the last couple of nights.

Sen. Clinton has made several calls this week to Democratic activists in New Hampshire-and around the country, sounding out her presidential prospects. Several other potential candidates have been making trips to New Hampshire for the last year and a half. Among the most frequent visitors is Indiana Sen. Evan Bayh, who filled a small room at a Manchester conference center Friday night but wasn't near the draw as Obama on his first trip. Anticipating the inevitable comparison to their visits on the same weekend, Bayh's aides joked that 1,000 more people were in an overflow room. , Bayh said he wasn ' t intimidated by the Obama mania as he talked to voters one-on-one. ''I'm doing the things that matter in New Hampshire," Bayh said. Because of their pivotal role, New Hampshire voters are accustomed to individual attention from presidential candidates. Obama tried to accommodate them despite the large turnout; staying for over an hour after his speech ended to sign a boOk for every person who wanted one. He also chartered an $11,000 flight to Chicago late Sunday night so he could greet attendees after his speech without having to worry about catching a plane: State party officials said 150 members of the media signed up to cover Obama's speech, representing news organizations as far off as Australia and Japan. He answered . questions about how his young children, his inexperience, his race and even whether his troublesome middle name "Hussein" - could affect his candidacy. He said his. family is a major concern because his daughters are 8 and 5 years old. He said questions.about his inexperience are valid. He said Americans are not concerned with middle names, but that all women and minority candidates have to overcome stereotypes so people will judge them on their merits. "Are some voters not going to vote for me because I'm African-American? Those are the same voters who probably wouldn't vote for me because of my politics," he said. Obama's advisers said he would consider his choice over the holidays, after his annual Christmas trip to his native Hawaii to visit his grandmother.

Several months ago, I gave in to temptation and had a weekend fling with "Luisa." I deceived her into thinking I was single and available. In · the six weeks before our weekend together, Luisa and I exchanged over 200 emails. We really shared our hearts and got to know each other. I never intended for it to get as far as it did. Somewhere along the way, we fell in love. After· our weekend together, I was overcome with such guilt that I told Luisa . the truth about being married. Then I told Shirley about the affair and asked her to forgive my lies and my betrayal. She has. She loves me beyond comprehension. In most cases, this is where the man is supposed to put the fling behind him and make things ri'ght with his wife. It would be easier if he found his wife attractive. Shirley's not ugly, but I long for more. Luisa is gorgeous. The day I held her in my arms, I fell in love for Shirley, be sure to provide the first ·time in my life.

ALL BUSINESS: Potential cotiflicts exist when stock buybacks and insider selling coincide NEW YORK - When it comes to stock buybacks. corporate leaders have mastered the game of doublespeak.At the same time they are touting the advantages of repurchasing shares on their investors' dimes, some are cashing out oflheir own stock holdings. Just look at what has bee·n going on at Kohl's Corp. since the retail chain announced its first-ever · buyback program in March. Its stock has jumped more than 45 percent as the company has bought back 20 million shares for $1.2 billion. ·. It s top brass have taken advantage of that climb by selling more than $500 million of stock. The timing of such events could be pure coincidence. But it calls into question the often~repeated view th at buybacks are a bullish indi· cator of executives' view of future. Buybacks happen when companies go into the open market to purchase their stock, usually with cash. They've grown increasingly popular in recent years thanks to the hoards of cash piling up on corporate balance sheets. Companies 111 · the Standard & Poor' s 500 stock index ;pent a record $349 billion last year on share repurcha,es, up from $197 billion in 2004. This year could top that. given that buybw~· b totaled $325 billion over the f1r't three quaners, according to S&P. Investors often cheer buybacks because they think it , means executives see good times ahead. Corporate leaders also like buybacks because they generally boost earnings per share and lift a company's rewrn on equity - two metrics by which their compensation is often hinged. "Everydnc loves buybacks because they offer immediate . gratifi cation," said Howard Silverblatt, quantitative analyst at S&P. "The quarter I do a repurchase, my EPS goes up and my earnings look better." Buybacks also can mask the transfer of wealth through stock options to company insiders. In some cases, companies ·repurchase their shares and then grant options to employees or issue stock for· mergers· and acquisitions. The hard pall for investors is determining whe\lJer large insider sales during huyback periods is bad news or not. One research firm. at lea.~!. is mising a red flag about the issue. In a report last June, Audit Int egrity, a governance and accounting research firm. warned its c lient~ stock · investors, insurers, auditors and the like- to keep close tao; on such potential connic1s. ''Anyone who is a corporate stakeholder is very concerned that ma nagement i' acting in their ·o'Yn self Interest, and when this goe' on, it seems to be a perfect example of that," said· .lack Zwingli . CEO ,,r the L<h' Angeles-based firm. NVR Inc. was among 16 companies cited in the study as being al particular risk given that share repurchases and insider .sales were well ahead of industry averages. From 2003 to 2005 , the Reston , Va.-based homebuilder bought back· over 3 ·million shares for more than $1.7 billion, according to securities filings. During that time , shares of the 'homebuilder soared, from around $330 a share tn highs topping $930 in July 2005. That rise came despite expectations for a slowdown in the hou sing market as interest rates be~an to rise. 'NVR's executives and Llirectors cashed out big during the run-up, selling mom than $630 million in shares, · according to Thomson Financial. A frac1ion of that came from options that were exercised and immediately sold, but · the bulk were straight sales. The insiders only bought about $504.000 worth of stock on the open market during those three years. . according to Th01mon Financial. Insiders have pi cked up the pace of their buying -and slowed their se lling as the stock has fallen sharply from its 2005 highs and N~s profits have plunged am1d the downturn in I he hou, ing m•u kcl. They ha ve ;old $54 millio.n in stock this year and purchased ju't over $J million. according to Th01mon Financial. Buyback s have also slowed. NVR repurchased 2g9,000 shares in the first nine months of this year, down from 643,000 shares for the same period a year earlier, according to securities filin gs. Dan Malzahn, a spokesman for NVR, declined to comment. At Kohl's, col'porate leaders only sold $27.5 million in shares from March 2005 to February 2006. ·But their selling .zoomed to 18 times that since the retailer announc ed in March its plans to buy back $2 !Jillion in stock over the next two to three. years. Most of the selling comes from members of its hoard or directors and those related . to them, :1ccording to Thomson Financial. The Menomonee Falls, Wis ..-based company did not return cal ls for comment. For both Kohl's and NVR, executives cou ld have stock options with exerci'e dates expirin g or maybe the options arc finally worth something, so they casheu out.

For the past year, students at · Dublin Jerome Hig h Schon! have worked on a project to make biodiesel fuel for school buses from the cafeteria's used vegetable oil. If the project works, the district would be nne of the first in the country_ to make its o~n pure biodiesel, said Robin Leeds of the National School Transportation Association. Students got the idea after studying biodiesel in an earth systems class. They used grant money to buy the $8,000 machine needed to convert the vege table oi I to fuel and began collecting from school cafeterias last Wednesday. "Everyone wants this to succeed," said senior Arielle Babineaux. 17. Last year, the cafeterias generated about I 00 gallons df waste oil per week enou gh to run two buses. There is less used vegetable oil this year becau se the. schnol has cut the number of fried lunches, so students might tum to restaurants to make up the difference, science teacher Chuck Crawford said. The district plans to begin testing the new fu el in two buses next month . Biodiesel made from waste oil costs about 70 cents a gallon, so making the switch could save the school district about $6,800 a year, students said. The fuel also is more environmentally fri endly and causes less . engine problems than traditional diesel. The most apparent drawback is that pure biodiesel can be less efficient and congeal at low temperature s. Officials · with Columbus' Central Ohio Transit Authority said their bu ses run on 90 percent biodiesel during the summer.· but the bu ses were using a I0 percent mixture last week. "Biodiesel in high concentration can set up like Jell-0" in cold weather, said COTA President and Chief Executive Bill Lhota. But he said the fuel switch has helped save the agency as much as $40{),000 thi s year. Students plan to test their fuel this week to see how cold it can get before it solidifies. To keep the fuel warm, they plan to use heated blankets and keep the bnses in heated garages, students said. "The last 'thing you · want is a bus of students sitting somewhere and you can't run the bus," saiq · Bev Hockman, transportation cnordinator for the nearby Canal Winchester school district. She said her district may folio~ Dublin 's lead if the project is successful.
