Parolee suspect in death of day-care provider
WICHITA — A parole faces first-degree murder charges in the shooting death of a day-care provider.
Nathenial Terrell Hurt is accused of the shooting of Nicole J. Palma, a 30-year-old mother of two boys who ran her own day-care business.
A gunman shot and killed Palma on Friday in her front yard. Police arrested Hurt about two hours after the shooting.
Police said the two apparently had a relationship and considered the crime a domestic violence case.
Hurt, 30, has also been charged with aggravated assault with a deadly weapon — a 9 mm handgun — and criminal possession of a firearm.
He remained in the Sedgwick County Bank on a $750,000 bond.
Hurt was released from prison last October after serving almost three years for a 1998 conviction of aggravated battery, said Bill Miskell of the Kansas Department of Corrections.

Report blows whistle on U.S. weapons tests
WASHINGTON—The United States secretly tested chemical and biological weapons on American soil during the 1960s, newly declassified Pentagon reports show.
The tests included releasing deadly nerve agents in Alaska and spraying bacteria over Hawaii, according to the documents obtained Tuesday. The United States also tested nerve agents in Canada and Britain in conjunction with those two countries.
The summaries of more than two dozen tests show that biological and chemical tests were much more wide spread than the military has previously acknowledged.
The Pentagon released records earlier this year showing that chemical and biological agents had been sprayed on ships at sea.
The Defense Department planned to formally release summaries of 28 biological and chemical weapons tests at a House Veterans Affairs subcommittee hearing yesterday.
Protestors aim to block use of police records
BERKELEY, Calif. — A group of students arrested at a rally supporting the Palestinian cause are fighting to block university officials from using police records at their disciplinary hearing.
The University of California, Berkeley students said in a court petition that the school couldn't use videotapes and other records of their arrests because charges were dropped and a factual finding of innocence was issued.
The university says student conduct hearings are separate from criminal proceedings and that the records are necessary to enable the students to answer questions such as: "Have you ever been arrested?"
The students filed their petition Monday in Alameda County Superior Court.

Nobel Prize won for early cancer diagnosis
STOCKHOLM, Sweden — American, Japanese and Swiss scientists won the Nobel Prize in chemistry yesterday for developing methods of identifying and analyzing "biological macromolecules," such as proteins.
John B. Fenn of the United States and Koichi Tanaka of Japan will share half of the $1 million prize, and Kurt Wuethrich of Switzerland will get the other half.
Their work has revolutionized the development of new medicines and has shown early promise in early diagnosis of some types of cancer, the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences said.
