...Barack Obama delivered his Inaugural Address, there was a noticeable flurry of fedoras - a nod, perhaps, to a bygone era when wearing a hat was a sign of respect and also celebration. (Look to Aretha Franklin's euphoric gray felt concoction.) Former Vice President Dick Cheney, Utah Senator Robert Bennett and the Rev. Jesse Jackson all wore fedoras during the ceremony. Later, at the Inaugural luncheon at Statuary Hall, Ted Kennedy showed up in a dashing black fedora. And that evening Rosanna Arquette and will.i.am were among the hipsters who wore fedora-esque hats to Inaugural balls. (See pictures...
...death penalty," Hirschorn says, "and without the option of LWOP you could guarantee the death penalty." In the Houston cop killing case, the lawyers for defendant Juan Quintero initially attempted an insanity defense, citing a traumatic brain injury. Though the jurors rejected it and found Quintero guilty, Mark Bennett, a Houston defense lawyer argued on his blog "Defendingpeople.com" that the head injury testimony lingered in the minds of some jurors, who may have regarded it as a mitigating factor in deciding on a life sentence rather than execution...
...took just two minutes for Theresa Jackson to get sterilized. On a recent afternoon in Gallatin, Tenn., the 35-year-old mother of three lay on an exam table in the office of her ob-gyn, Dr. Alan Bennett, with her feet in stirrups and her husband by her side.

In a study in Obstetrics & Gynecology of 11,232 women who had been voluntarily sterilized, 20% of those who were younger than 30 at the time of the operation felt regret later, compared with 6% of those who were older than 30. Bennett, who stopped performing tubal ligations a year ago and now sterilizes only with Essure, says, "The most important job we have is to make sure people are absolutely certain." He discussed the issue for a year with Chastity Taylor, who is only 29 and has one daughter, before implanting the coils...
...Robert Nardelli argued back. At another point in the hearing, Nardelli told Dodd that the weakest of the Big Three can survive alone and that $7 billion is all it will need "to avoid, Mr. Chairman, having to come back and again ask you for support." Utah's Bennett broached the idea of Congress writing into any package a proviso forcing GM and Chrysler to merge. UAW chief Gettelfinger questioned the benefits of such a move, saying, "In terms of synergies, it's debatable about how effective it would be." Wagoner said he was open to looking...
