Seattle Times Technology Reporter
THE COMBINED Gates foundation will have assets of $17.1 billion, making it the second-largest charitable trust in the world. Just to meet federal rules, it will have to give away $500 million by the end of the year.
Microsoft Chairman Bill Gates and his wife, Melinda French Gates, are merging their two charitable foundations and committing an additional $6 billion to create the country's largest philanthropic foundation.
The new entity, called the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, will boast a $17.1 billion endowment and target improving health and education around the world. The venture combines the William H. Gates Foundation, created in 1994, with the Gates Learning Foundation, which was created in 1997 under a different name. The merger is expected to be completed by Jan. 1.

Air Date: January 28, 1997
NARRATOR: Before the planes could attack, Task Force Normandy would fire the first shots of the war. Its Apache gunships had been training for months. Their mission was vital: to destroy at all costs two Iraqi radar sites that would otherwise give Baghdad an early warning of what was to come.
[1:00 A.M., January 17, 1991] It was a moonless night. Eight Apaches armed with Hellfire missiles took off towards Iraq. This is a pilot's eye view, videotape from one helicopter's night vision camera. The gunships flew just a few feet off the desert until they were eight miles from the radar dishes.
Lt. TOM DREW, Task Force Normandy: We slowed our air speed to about 40 knots, came up on line, all abreast, so we're all the same distance from the target. And at this point, I'm not looking through my goggles. I'm looking at a T.V. screen right in front of me. Watched the clock tick to zero and I gave the code word "Get some." At that point, everybody fired their Hellfires.
Get some!
1st HELICOPTER PILOT: Second missile.
NARRATOR: From a range of four miles, each crew aimed a laser beam that guided their missiles. The Iraqis had anti-aircraft guns, but could not see or hear the helicopters. This was a new kind of war.

During his chief residency at MGH, on May 23, 1962, a team under the direction of Ron successfully accomplished the replantation of Everett Knowles' traumatically severed right arm. No one, to that point, had succeeded in restoring a completely severed limb. This feat immediately made Ronald Malt an internationally renowned surgical figure

Ronald A. Malt, 70, Is Dead; Innovator in Reattaching Limb
By ERIC NAGOURNEY
Published: October 17, 2002
Dr. Ronald A. Malt, a Boston surgeon who made medical history 40 years ago when he oversaw the first successful reattachment of a human limb, died on Oct. 5 in Wellesley, Mass. He was 70.
The cause was complications from Alzheimer's disease, his family said.
Dr. Malt was 30 and the chief surgical resident at Massachusetts General Hospital on May 23, 1962, when Everett Knowles, 12, was taken into the emergency room. Everett had been hopping a freight train to go to a baseball game, but when he was thrown against a stone abutment, his right arm was ripped off cleanly at the shoulder.
Until then, surgeons had been able to reattach partly severed limbs and restore function. But no one had success with limbs that had been shorn off. Dr. Malt gathered a team of 12 specialists, who went to work reattaching Everett's arm.

Jul 19, 1989:
Sitcom actress murdered; death prompts anti-stalking legislation
On this day in 1989, the 21-year-old actress Rebecca Shaeffer is murdered at her Los Angeles home by Robert John Bardo, a mentally unstable man who had been stalking her. Schaeffer’s death helped lead to the passage in California of legislation aimed at preventing stalking.
Schaeffer was born November 6, 1967, in Eugene, Oregon. She worked as a teenage model and had a short stint on the daytime soap opera One Life to Live, but was best known for co-starring with Pam Dawber in the television sitcom My Sister Sam. Bardo, born in 1970, had written Schaeffer letters and unsuccessfully tried to gain access to the set of My Sister Sam, before showing up at her apartment on July 19, 1989. The obsessed fan had reportedly obtained the actress’s home address through a detective agency, which located it through records at the California Department of Motor Vehicles. On the day of the murder, Schaeffer reportedly complied with Bardo’s request for an autograph when he appeared at her home and then asked him to leave. He returned a short time later and the actress, who reportedly was waiting for someone to deliver a script, answered the door again. Bardo then shot and killed her.
Arrested the next day in Tucson, Arizona, Bardo was later prosecuted by the Los Angeles County district attorney Marcia Clark, who later became famous as a prosecutor in the O.J. Simpson trial. In 1991, Bardo was convicted of capital murder and sentenced to life in prison without the possibility of parole. In 1994, California passed the Driver’s Privacy Protection Act, which prevented the Department of Motor Vehicles from releasing private addresses.
The 2002 film Moonlight Mile, loosely inspired by Schaeffer’s story, was written and directed by Brad Silberling, who had been dating the young actress at the time of her death.

Survivors Tell Of Calm Amid Chaos
July 20, 1989 By CONSTANCE HAYS, The New York Times
The first sign of trouble aboard United Airlines Flight 232 over the Midwest on Wednesay was a loud bang from the rear of the DC-10, followed by a jolt that made the jet shudder.
``I was listening to the headset, and all of a sudden there was a big noise,`` said Lori Michaelson, who was traveling from Denver to Chicago with her husband, Mark, and their three children, ages 1, 4 and 6.
``My husband flies all the time, and he thought nothing of it. But I could see the stewardesses looked kind of panicky.``
More than half an hour later, the plane lay in flaming ruins on the runway of the Sioux City Municipal Airport. More than 170 people survived.
Just after the initial noise, which some survivors described as an explosion, the pilot made an announcement on the public-address system.
``He said we had lost power in one engine but that we should be able to make it,`` said another survivor, David Lansberger. ``They kept the video on, and people were having drinks.``
About 10 minutes later, the pilot announced he was going to land the plane in Sioux City, because the engine problem had damaged the aircraft`s tail. About 15 minutes after that, the passengers were told to brace themselves for a rough landing.
``The next thing I knew, the world was basically turned upside down,`` said Lansberger, who, like Michaelson, was interviewed by telephone during CNN`s Larry King Live.
The plane skidded on its side, rolled over once, and continued skidding along the runway. The only sound Lansberger heard was the screaming of metal against pavement; the passengers were quiet, he said.
``Everybody was real calm,`` he said, as the plane began its descent. ``We thought we were going to land and just walk off. There was noise everywhere, but not a lot of screaming.``
When he came to a stop, Lansberger, who was sitting in an aisle seat in the 13th row of the plane`s economy section, was dangling upside down.
``I released my seat belt, and looked toward the emergency exit I was supposed to use, but I couldn`t see it for the smoke,`` he said.
``I looked toward the back of the plane and I saw daylight. At about Row 20, the plane stopped and I was in the middle of a cornfield. I just kept walking.``
Michaelson was sitting in the 11th row of the economy cabin, holding her year-old daughter on her lap, when the flight attendants began telling people to huddle in the crash-landing position.
Michaelson put her baby on the floor of the plane, as instructed. ``She slid out on impact,`` Michaelson said.
``I didn`t know where she was. We got ourselves unbuckled, and I didn`t hear her crying. I just got my 6-year-old son out.``
Once in the cornfields, where their fragment of the aircraft came to rest, Michaelson`s husband asked her where their daughter was. ``He said, did you get the baby out?`` Michaelson said. ``I said, no. I lost her.``
Michaelson went back into the fuselage, which was beginning to belch black smoke as small fires broke out along the ruptured metal, to find the child.
``I could hear her crying,`` he told CNN. ``But I couldn`t see her. Other people were still going out. At that point, the smoke got worse. I started to see flames.
``Everybody else was out, and I went straight across the cornfields. When I got to a group of people, the baby was there in some woman`s arms. A man had brought her out of the airplane and gave her to her to hold.``

Seat Row, Luck Aided Survivors
July 21, 1989 By WILLIAM E. SCHMIDT, The New York Times
CHICAGO -- Debi Belliveau was sitting in Row 16, directly above the wing of the United Airlines DC-10 when it crashed on Wednesday just short of Sioux City airport.
``Sixteen -- that`s my lucky lottery number,`` said Belliveau, who walked away from the broken, flaming wreckage without a scratch or smudge.
Belliveau, from Michigan City, Ind., was among at least 183 people who survived the crash.
Rescue workers said that many of those who escaped unscathed or with only minor injuries were, like Belliveau, sitting between Rows 9 and 19 next to the wing structure. A number of others, according to survivors, were sitting near the plane`s tail. The three pilots also survived.
Airline safety experts and federal officials say that seating position, and luck, probably did play a role in their survival. They said the experience of passengers aboard United Flight 232 is likely to raise questions about if and when a traveler is safer in one part of the aircraft than another.
A number of other factors played a role in the unusually large number of survivors and may have been more important in what happened to the passengers, experts said.
These include the ability of the United crew to bring the badly crippled aircraft within a few hundred yards of the airport before it swerved out of control, the airplane`s low speed and angle when it hit and the way in which the plane tumbled, skidded and broke up after striking the ground.
The fact that the seats and the floor of the fuselage around the wings stayed intact reflects the stronger structural support in that part of the aircraft, which is necessary to support the wing, according to Frank T. Taylor, former head of the Federal Aviation Administration`s Bureau of Accident Investigation.

THE 1994 CAMPAIGN
THE 1994 CAMPAIGN; Vice President Rebukes Gingrich for Citing Murder Case
Published: November 8, 1994
PEORIA, Ill., Nov. 7— Vice President Al Gore has rebuked Representative Newt Gingrich for discussing in political terms the case of a woman in South Carolina who is accused of killing her two young sons.
Mr. Gingrich, the Georgia Republican who is the House minority whip, said on Saturday in an appearance for his re-election campaign, "The mother killing her two children in South Carolina vividly reminds every American how sick the society is getting and how much we have to have change." He added that "the only way you get change is to vote Republican."
The Vice President called Mr. Gingrich's comments "outrageous" and said that "we should have a bipartisan agreement to stop stirring up hatefulness and bringing something like this into partisan politics." Mr. Gore made his remarks during a campaign appearance for a Democratic Congressional candidate in Illinois.
Mr. Gingrich, who said his remarks had been taken out of context, was referring to the case of Susan V. Smith of Union, S.C., who told the authorities last month that her two young sons had been kidnapped by a carjacker. The police said she confessed last week to drowning the boys by letting her car roll into a lake as they were strapped inside.
The defense lawyer and the prosecutor in the Smith case said they were dismayed by Mr. Gingrich's reference.

Formula One: Uncovering the mystery of William Grover-Williams
by Richard Bath
Published on the 27 May 2012 02:46
Richard Bath discovers that the first winner of the Monaco GP was an amazing man who went on to be a spy and met a grim end – or did he?
WHEN you watch the Monaco Grand Prix this afternoon, spare a thought for an obscure figure called William Grover-Williams, the most remarkable Formula One driver you’ve probably never heard of. And if you are aware of the Englishman, then the chances are that all you’ll know of him is that he won the first Monaco Grand Prix, back in 1929.
Yet there is so much more to this man of mystery who enthralled his contemporaries and who remains an enigma to this day. A brilliant yet aloof motorsport figure in the Roaring Twenties and the depression era, during the Second World War he became a spy and Resistance fighter who ran a network of agents in Paris, helped by two fellow racing drivers. He remains a fêted French hero – and a controversial figure about whom the real truth may never be known.
The son of a French mother and well-to-do English horse breeder Frederick Grover, who had moved to Paris at the turn of the century, Willy Grover grew up in Monte Carlo, where his 15th birthday present was an Indian motorcycle, and where he learnt to drive in his sister’s boyfriend’s Rolls-Royce.
Mechanically gifted and obsessed with speed, he was soon winning motorbike races and rallies, lying about his age and competing as “W Williams” so that his mother wouldn’t find out. He was also becoming wealthy. Not only was he winning prize money but, when he fell in love with Yvonne Aubicq, the beautiful mistress of celebrated Irish artist Sir William Orpen, for whom Grover worked as a chauffeur in Paris, Orpen gave their marriage his blessing, plus a large house and his open-top Rolls-Royce. Grover was also gaining fame as a driver, especially after the 1927 French GP, when he pushed world champion Robert Benoist all the way in an underpowered Talbot. The following year he won the French GP at Montlhéry after talking his friend Ettore Bugatti into selling him a second-hand Bugatti at a knockdown price.
Grover and Yvonne were an impossibly glamorous pair. They would race their powerful his-and-hers Hispano-Suiza cars around Monte Carlo at breakneck speed and dance endlessly at its best clubs, while Willy was a champion tennis player and golfer. The other drivers were captivated. “Some said he was a wealthy sportsman because he drove a magnificent town car,” said F1 driver and rival René Dreyfus. “Others thought he was one of the livery men who hired his car and his services as a chauffeur to wealthy clients. No one knew for sure.”
His fame hit new heights in 1929 when he won the inaugural Monaco Grand Prix. The race, the brainchild of cigarette baron Anthony Noghès and supported by Prince Louis II and the leading Monégasque driver Louis Chiron, was a remarkable event. There had been races in Tripoli, Antibes, Cannes and Algeria but Monaco was different, not least because the winner collected 100,000 Francs, a small fortune. Despite being drawn on the second row of the grid in the ballot, Grover-Williams, in his Bugatti, dominated the race, averaging over 80kph and finishing the 100 laps in a little under four hours, over a minute ahead of Frenchman Georges Bouriano and red-hot German favourite Rudolf Caracciola in his 7.1-litre Mercedes.
Although he stopped racing in 1936 having won six grands prix, Grover was already rich. He had a house in Paris and a villa in the fashionable Riviera resort of La Baule and topped up his income by teaching new Bugatti owners how to handle their powerful cars. All of that was to change in 1939 when war broke out. Despite being born and raised in France, Willy answered England’s call and enlisted as a driver.
In 1940, Willy, driving for a British general, smoothly effected a hair-raising escape via Brittany after they got cut off from Dunkirk. Combined with his fluent French, it marked him out and, after an intensive Special Operations Executive training course, on 31 May, 1942 the 36-year-old, code-named Vladimir, was dropped into France to try to establish a new Resistance network ahead of D-Day after the Germans had smashed the previous one in late 1941.
On landing, the first people he contacted were his wife and his old friend and rival Robert Benoist, who had been a pilot in the First World War. They also enlisted another F1 driver, Jean-Pierre Wimille. Their aim was to recruit, equip and train an underground army ahead of the expected invasion.
After performing many low-level acts of sabotage, particularly at the Citroën factory, Grover and Benoist were eventually caught when they were betrayed by Benoist’s brother Maurice.
Benoist effected a remarkable exit from a car filled with four Gestapo men by flinging himself and one guard out of the moving car, then escaped from a flat surrounded by eight more Gestapo pursuers before eventually making it back to Britain.
Grover was not so fortunate. Tortured and sent to Sachsenhausen concentration camp, he was systematically beaten and starved, and his wife was later told that he had been executed by firing squad alongside legendary British agent Francis Suttill just weeks before the end of the war. Nor did Benoist or Wimille meet happy ends. Benoist returned to France twice before being captured in Paris in June 1944 and executed in Buchenwald. Wimille survived the war but died in a ball of flame during a practice run for the 1949 Buenos Aires Grand Prix.
Yet there are many who believe that Grover survived. One rumour had a mysterious man signing autographs at race meetings as “Williams”, another insisted he lived on as a grocer in Surrey.
Recently released government documents report that, in 1947, a man named Grover-Williams was relocated to the USA by MI6 officers in Berlin, which would fit with the testimony of SS officer Kurt Eccarius, who insisted that Grover-Williams was taken to Berlin in January 1945 and then to Rawicz prison camp in Poland just before it was overrun by the Red Army.
Some historians have speculated that he was used by MI6 from 1945 to 1947, pointing to a photograph of Sachenhausen apparently annotated in his handwriting. MI6 says it knows what happened to him but refuses to provide any more detail. Beatrice van Lith, Robert Benoist’s granddaughter, is convinced that Grover-Williams survived. Her research revealed that, in 1948, a man named Georges Tambal – who shared Willy’s birthday, had a gift for mechanics and who bore marks of severe beatings on his head – moved in with Willy’s wife Yvonne at her Evreux home, where locals said they lived like man and wife. Tambal said he’d come from America via Uganda, two places where Willy had family ties (he picked up two giraffes on the way, which he sold to a local zoo). Finally, when the mayor of Evreux asked Tambal to sign the register at the town hall, as required by law, he got a visit from the Gendarmerie ordering him to waive the requirement.
If Tambal was Willy, then his death would have been unusually poignant. Moving to Agen on Yvonne’s death in 1973, he died ten years later when he was knocked off his bike – by a German tourist driving a Mercedes.

S.C. MOTHER SAYS SHE WATCHED OLDER SON STRUGGLE FOR HIS LIFE
Reuter News Service
Published: Sunday, Nov. 6 1994 12:00 a.m. MST
Susan Smith, charged with murdering her two small sons, told police she watched as her older son struggled for his life before he sank alongside his younger brother into a Southern lake, Newsweek reported Saturday.
The magazine's forthcoming edition, due on newsstands Monday, said the 23-year-old secretary, desperate about her financial and romantic troubles, had driven around Union, S.C., in a suicidal haze for three hours with her two children.Quoting police sources, Newsweek said Smith considered killing herself before she drove her two sons to the lake, shifted her 1990 Mazda Protege into gear and let it roll down a 75-foot ramp into the water.
Smith told authorities she had stood by the water's edge and watched as her 3-year-old son, Michael, woke up, panicked and struggled to free himself.
According to the report, the car, with its windows rolled up, floated on the surface before flipping over and sinking to the bottom of the lake.
Police told Newsweek that Smith then ran to a nearby house and asked the residents to call police to report her children had been kidnapped.
According to the magazine, police began to suspect Smith's story and encouraged Smith to go to the media.
As their suspicions grew, investigators encouraged Smith to speak out in the hopes that she would further contradict her original story.

Prisoner of War Medal
The Prisoner of War Medal is a military award of the United States armed forces which was authorized by Congress and signed into law by President Ronald Reagan on 8 November 1985. The United States Code citation for the POW Medal statute is 10 U.S.C. § 1128.
The Prisoner of War Medal may be awarded to any person who was a prisoner of war after April 5, 1917, (the date of the United States entry into World War I was the 6th). It is awarded to any person who was taken prisoner or held captive while engaged in an action against an enemy of the United States; while engaged in military operations involving conflict with an opposing Armed Force; or while serving with friendly forces engaged in armed conflict against an opposing Armed Force in which the United States is not a belligerent party. As of an amendment to Title 10 of the United States Code in 1989, the medal is also awarded for captivity by foreign armed forces that are hostile to the United States, under circumstances which the Secretary concerned finds to have been comparable to those under which persons have generally been held captive by enemy armed forces during periods of armed conflict. The person's conduct, while in captivity, must have been honorable. This medal may be awarded posthumously to the surviving next of kin of the recipient.
