| IDs released on two ice-related deaths; Knox on 2-hour delay
The second fatal wreck of the day happened a little less than three hours later in Loudon County. Barbara A. Lynch, 52, of Lenoir City died when her 1997 Mercury Cougar ran off the road and hit a utility pole, according to the Tennessee Highway Patrol. Lynch was driving south on U.S. Highway 11 near the corner of Muddy Creek Road around 9:50 a.m. when she apparently lost control of the car, Trooper Cory Snow wrote in a report. She didn't wear a seatbelt, and the impact hurled her partly out of the car, Snow wrote. The weather caused hundreds of other wrecks around the area, including more than 350 smashups in Knoxville and Knox County alone. Knoxville police worked 232 wrecks from 6:30-10 a.m. when the black ice was at its worst, Knoxville Police Department spokesman Darrell DeBusk said.

Hip-Hop Rumors: Bump J FREE!?! Jim Jones' Reality Show? Mike Jones ...
I was all hyped up to see Jim Jones in the reality show they were filming on VH1, but I don't know what's become of it. It is going around that there was tension between Jim and the producers of the show. There is no such thing as a true reality show, but there is something called “scripted reality." That's what Run and the family do. And that works for some, but Jim Jones is the real deal. I heard he just wasn't with the script and wasn't able to flip it to fit his mode of operation. All the filming is supposedly done, but the editing is very tricky with a reality-based stickler like Jim Jones the Capo. BUMP J IS FREE! I'll never forget bumpin' Chicagorilla, Bump J's mixtape. I was waiting for the official album.
Humiliation for Edwards
The three Republican presidential contenders denouncing you….Do you want to do any response? C'mon it was a joke. I would never insult gays by suggesting that they are like John Edwards. That would be mean. Did any of these guys say anything after I made the same remark about Al Gore last summer?Why not? What were they trying to say about Al Gore with their silence? Nagourney's blog about the incident is here. ... Update: Nagourney's print piece is up. He quotes more of Coulter's email than he does on his blog (which is odd since it's usually the other way around). He also makes it clear he solicited Coulter's response.... 6:41 P.M. link Thursday, March 1, 2007 Get-up-and-get-a-beer line of the day: According to the NY Post, Newt Gingrich "doesn't think Obama can win." "If the country wants therapy, they're going to elect Obama," he said.
Stocks close day before Fed decision up
The 10-year Treasury note's yield, which moves opposite its price, was at 3.66 percent, up from 3.58 percent late Monday. The dollar was mixed against most major currencies, and gold prices fell. Oil prices moved higher as traders waited to see what the Fed's next move will be. A barrel of light sweet crude rose 65 cents to $91.64 a barrel on the New York Mercantile Exchange. Wall Street has been extremely volatile in recent weeks amid fears of a U.S. recession and further write-downs in the financial sector. However, that has given way to a more quiet tone this week as investors looked for their second-straight day of gains before the Fed's decision. Central bankers are widely expected to lower its key rate, now at 3.5 percent, by as much as one-half percentage point to 3 percent when policymakers wrap up on Wednesday.
Mother accused in baby's drowning faced financial strain
GRANITE BAY, Calif. (AP) - A first-time mother arrested after the apparent drowning death of her 8-day-old baby may have been under financial strain, according to public records. Kristina Fuelling, 27, was being held in the Placer County Jail on Tuesday after her arrest in the death of her baby, Faith Evelyn. The infant's body was found in a bathroom sink Sunday in the family's rental home in Granite Bay, an affluent suburb east of Sacramento. Court records show she and her husband, Nicholas Fuelling, had two home foreclosures in 2006. The state also issued a tax lien against Nicholas Fuelling for nearly $54,000, and the Better Business Bureau received numerous complaints about his mold-detection company. Kristina Fuelling is scheduled to make her first court appearance Wednesday.
