'Real Housewives' star to plead not guilty in NJ

NEWARK, N.J. (AP) ? "Real Housewives of New Jersey' star Teresa Giudice (JOO'-dice) says she and her husband, Joe, hope to resolve federal fraud charges as quickly as possible.

A 39-count indictment handed up Monday in federal court in Newark, N.J., accuses the couple of bank and bankruptcy fraud. Joe Giudice is also accused of failing to file five years of tax returns, before the show began airing, when he allegedly earned nearly $1 million.

Teresa's attorney says she will plead not guilty and that "we look forward to vindicating her."

Giudice also issued her own statement saying "today is a most difficult day for our family."

She says she supports her husband and is committed to continuing her career.

The show is in its fifth season on Bravo. A network spokesman had no comment.

THIS IS A BREAKING NEWS UPDATE. Check back soon for further information. AP's earlier story is below.

Two stars of the "Real Housewives of New Jersey" were indicted Monday on federal fraud charges, accused of exaggerating their income while applying for loans before their TV show debuted in 2009, then hiding their improving fortunes in a bankruptcy filing after their first season aired.

Teresa Giudice, 41, and her husband Giuseppe "Joe" Giudice, 43, of Montville Township, were charged in a 39-count indictment with conspiracy to commit mail and wire fraud, bank fraud, making false statements on loan applications and bankruptcy fraud.

The reality TV stars submitted fraudulent mortgage and other loan applications from 2001 through 2008, a year before their show debuted on Bravo, making phony claims about their employment status and salaries, the indictment said.

Joe Giudice also failed to file tax returns for the years 2004 through 2008, when he is alleged to have earned nearly $1 million, the government said.

Their attorneys did not immediately return calls seeking comment. A spokesman for Bravo said he had no comment.

The two were scheduled to make their initial court appearances Tuesday.

"The indictment returned today alleges the Giudices lied to the bankruptcy court, to the IRS and to a number of banks," U.S. Attorney Paul Fishman said. "Everyone has an obligation to tell the truth when dealing with the courts, paying their taxes and applying for loans or mortgages. That's reality."

When Teresa filed for a mortgage loan of $121,000 in 2001, she falsely claimed she worked as an executive assistant, submitting fake W-2 forms and fake paystubs as part of the ruse, the indictment said.

In their petition for bankruptcy protection, initiated in October 2009, the couple concealed businesses they owned, rental income they received, and Teresa's true income from the "Real Housewives," website sales and personal appearances, the indictment said.

Prosecutors said they also hid their anticipated increase in income from the then-upcoming second year of the show, which is in its fifth season.

Fixing Flood Insurance for the Nation | Commentary : Roll Call Opinion

• By Michael Hecht and Thomas Bracken
• July 29, 2013, 1:23 p.m.

In recent months, it has become clear that congressional action is needed to address unintended, drastic increases to National Flood Insurance Program rates for home and business owners along our coasts and rivers.

A confluence of the Biggert-Waters Act of 2012 (meant to stabilize the NFIP), incomplete and inaccurate Federal Emergency Management Agency maps and questionable actuarial calculations has led to premium increases of up to 5,000 percent and more ? for policyholders who have built to code and never flooded.

Unless addressed, changes to the NFIP will do harm to the people the program was designed to protect. For example, we are aware of a middle-class homeowner who built to code and has never flooded whose annual premium will go from $633 to a completely unviable $28,554.

Louisiana and New Jersey are at the forefront of this issue because our communities are some of the first to receive new FEMA flood maps since the passage of Biggert-Waters, which is how some premium increases are triggered. However, as new FEMA flood maps are rolled out across the country, the threat of runaway NFIP rates is to all of America. All 50 states participate in the NFIP, and according to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, 55 percent of Americans live within 50 miles of the coast.

In most cases, the astronomical increases are for owners who built to FEMA code and have never flooded. Individuals have played by the rules and maintained flood insurance, and yet Congress and FEMA are changing the rules in the middle of the game.

Some say that these changes are necessary to get rid of ?subsidized? rates. But the vast majority of policyholders ? 81 percent ? are not subsidized. Rather, they are already ?actuarially rated,? meaning that FEMA has deemed the rates as reflecting true risk, including ?grandfathered? properties.

NFIP rates suddenly jumping up 5,000 percent in the middle of a mortgage ? when the owner had no reason to anticipate this unaffordable increase when the original contract was signed ? contradicts typical insurance practice and reasonable expectation. And businesses and individuals do not have a choice ? flood insurance along our coasts and rivers is almost always government-mandated.

The consequences are clear and devastating. Owners will lose everything, values of unsellable properties will plummet, bank mortgages will go into default, local tax bases will erode and economies will be eviscerated. Ironically, this will ultimately destroy the NFIP itself, as policyholders will leave the program in droves.

The good news is that since this issue was brought to the attention of Congress, the response has been swift. In early June, the House passed a bipartisan one-year delay to premium hikes as a part of the Homeland Security appropriations legislation. In another show of bipartisan support, just recently, the Senate Appropriations Committee included the same one-year delay in its Homeland Security Appropriations bill, which awaits consideration by the full Senate. With a strong bipartisan focus on this issue in both the House and Senate, we are in a position to fix a problem that must be resolved: ensuring a sustainable, actuarially responsible NFIP that does not kill jobs and our local economies.

Michael Hecht is the president and CEO of Greater New Orleans Inc. Thomas Bracken is president and CEO of New Jersey Chamber of Commerce.

Summer Baseball: Ashland eliminated by Medfield in Central Mass. Sr. Babe Ruth North finals

Tim Haggerty went 2-for-4 with two RBI and a run scored as Medfield (19-6) ousted visiting Ashland 7-4 in the decisive third game of the North finals.

"This is the fourth (North) title in a row for us," said Medfield coach Kevin Glasheen, whose team will play South champion Bellingham in a best-of-three World Series, beginning with Game 1 Wednesday at 5:30 at Medfield.

Medfield jumped ahead with a four-run second inning, and led as much as 7-1 before Ashland rallied with three runs in the bottom of the fifth. But Remy Fragola, who had a two-RBI double earlier, came in and pitched 2 1/3 innings of scoreless relief.

"Ashland put a scare into us, they're a hard-working, classy group of guys that are well-coached," said Glasheen.

Ashland (17-8) was led by Nick Cunnignham, who had an RBI, a run scored, and pitched two scoreless innings to close out the game. John Ciampaglia went 1-for-3 with an RBI and a run scored.

"We had a real good year, but unfortunately it ended too soon," said Ashland coach Kyle Wilson, whose team lost to Medfield in the North final last year and won this year's opener.

Ammonia leak stopped at Union Gap warehouse

UNION GAP, Wash. ? A mechanical failure in a compression room caused an ammonia leak this morning at the Eakin fruit warehouse on Main Street, but the situation is now under control, according to Union Gap fire officials.

One employee who arrived at the building just before 6 a.m. smelled the ammonia and was taken to a local hospital for observation, but Union Gap fire officials say she was not injured. No other employees were in the building.

Main Street between the U.S. Highway 97 entrance ramp and Washington Street was shut down after fire crews arrived but re-opened at 8:10, fire officials said.

Union Gap fire was assisted by the hazardous materials specialists from the Yakima Fire Department.

Eakin Fruit is located at 4310 Main St.

Ammonia is used in industrial refrigeration to cool fruit warehouses.

After NVIDIA, ASUS Could Get the Boot for 2014 Google Nexus 7

Google's 2013 Nexus 7 may be less than a week old, but groundwork for its successor is already underway; as most companies with tight product development cycles would do. With 2013 Nexus 7 giving NVIDIA the boot by choosing a Qualcomm-made Snapdragon S4 Pro SoC over the company's Tegra 4, key players in the Nexus program are dispensable for Google. The company could give ASUS the boot, and opt for LG as its next Nexus 7 partner.

Nexus 7, the single most popular tablet brand after iPad, is co-developed by Google and ASUS. Its 2014 version could see Google partner with LG Electronics, with whom it co-developed the Nexus 4 smartphone. The reasons behind the switch are largely unknown, but we've shortlisted the likely two.

First, market analyst Ming-Chi-Kuo predicts that LG could be luring Google to partner with it, to give it access to cheap high-resolution displays that go beyond 1080p. LG Display supplies high-resolution IPS displays to a number of tablet designers, including in concert with Sharp, Apple.

Second, could be volumes. With market share of Apple iPad on a slump, and growth of the Nexus 7 brand, that accelerated ASUS' market share (more on that here), Google could be apprehensive about ASUS' ability to keep up with demand. A bonus third, despite critical acclaim for the 2013 Nexus 7 from everyone who ever toyed with one; some users aren't satisfied with its build quality.

Old reliable: After nervous start in 1943, trumpeter has played thousands of military services

BARRON, Wis. ? Chuck Kirkwood thought he was in trouble when he was called into the Barron High School office about 70 years ago.

Instead, he was asked to play taps for a military funeral. He accepted, and calculations are that he's performed at about 3,500 funerals and counting, the Eau Claire Leader-Telegram reported (http://bit.ly/161E3lf).

"I was never in the service, but I feel so indebted to those who serve," Kirkwood, 84, said. "I feel I don't deserve a lot of credit for what I do. Those who have served and are serving should always be getting the honor ? not me."

It was 1943 when he was sent to the principal's office, recalling high school band director Francis White recommended Kirkwood play taps at military ceremonies when the person who normally performed was not available.

"I've been playing at military funerals ever since," Kirkwood said. "I've played for Veterans Day, Memorial Day, flag-raising ceremonies and a number of other events in Barron and many other communities around here. I enjoy it, but I have to say, I remember being a bit nervous that first time in high school."

Kirkwood in recent years has kept a log of military services in which he's performed. Based on an average of slightly more than 50 a year, he estimated he's played in more than 3,500 such services.

Kirkwood started playing the trumpet in an effort to help his breathing.

"I had asthma real bad as a kid, and my dad (Charles) was a pharmacist in Barron. A doctor friend suggested that I play a horn to help my breathing," Kirkwood said. "I started playing and haven't quit."

Kirkwood managed to play at military funerals even while doing mechanical work for 44 years for the Barron County Highway Department.

"When I first started doing it, I would take a couple hours of vacation, but then one of the other fellas I worked with talked to the Highway Committee and said Legionnaires weren't getting docked when they went, so then I didn't either," Kirkwood said. "I would take my suit to my mother's house, change clothes, play, change back and go back to work. I made up the time missed by working longer those days."
