The one question this mom wishes she'd asked before her son was killed
In the middle of the night on Dec. 30, 2011, I received a call that my son, Noah, 13, who was sleeping over at a friend's house, was in trouble. I drove over to check, but the call didn’t really alarm me. I assumed the boys were out knocking on doors or toilet-papering houses. They were young boys on Christmas break. What else could it be? It wasn’t until we got closer that I realized something was wrong. Cop cars, an ambulance, fire trucks, and caution tape surrounded the house. I jumped out of the truck. Someone asked if I was Noah’s mother. Once I said yes, I was given the horrible news. Noah was shot by his friend, at his friend’s house, with an easily accessible gun. I screamed so loudly

Elvis Presley’s Private Jet Is Up for Sale-Unchanged Since The King Owned It
One of Elvis Presley’s private jets is once again up for auction. The 1962 Lockheed Jetstar, grounded in Roswell, N.M., for over four decades, has not been altered since Presley, who died in 1977, last owned it. The online auction site IronPlanet is accepting bids for the jet, which was owned by the singer and his father, Vernon, until July 27. Featuring an interior custom-designed to Presley’s specifications, the plane has gold-tone hardware, custom woodwork and inlays, red velvet seats, and red shag carpet. The aircraft also features original external painting and detailing. However, it has no engine and its cockpit needs restoring. Its current owner bought it last year for $430,000. It is,

Immigration lawyer recounts a conversation with Obama over the border crisis that 'shook him to his core'
An immigration lawyer sought to add some context to the Trump administration's "zero-tolerance" immigration policy currently drawing criticism because it has caused children to be separated from their parents when families cross the US-Mexico border illegally. Free argued that the fallout from the sounds and images seen from locations along the southern US border, and from detention centers where migrants are being held, are an extension of practices that began under President Barack Obama. The lawyer recounted a 2015 exchange with Obama, during which Free said he implored the president to close two detention centers in southern Texas, out of concern for the immigrant women and children being held there.

Lifestyle San Francisco ChronicleDear Abby: Lifelong bachelor’s interest in teen girl triggers alarm
Dear Abby: I have a 59-year-old brother-in-law who has always been a “proud bachelor.” He isn’t a rich, handsome, George Clooney-type bachelor, but a hand-to-mouth, burping, uncouth “Shallow Hal” kind of bachelor. He befriended a woman with four daughters, paying most of his attention to one of the daughters. He would take the woman and her girls to dinner, and take the daughters shopping without the mother. Fast-forward eight years. He wants to take the one daughter on a trip to Hawaii. And he has been telling everyone she is now 18 (the girl is still in high school). Should I say something to him, or mind my own business? He will likely hang up on me. I don’t know the daughters or their mom
