8A – Daily News – Friday, August 13, 2010 GM CEO says he’s stepping down Sept. 1 DETROIT (AP) — General Motors Co. chief Ed Whitacre said Thursday he’s stepping down as CEO on Sept. 1, his mission accomplished as the compa- ny reported its second straight quarterly profit. Whitacre, 68, will be replaced by GM board member Daniel Akerson. Like Whitacre, Akerson has a background of leading telecommunications companies. Akerson, 61, will be GM’s fourth CEO in 18 months when he takes over the job. He could be the executive who takes GM public again if an expected public offering takes place later this year. In a conference call with analysts and media, Whitacre didn’t directly address a question about whether executives with automotive experience were considered for the job. He said Akerson has learned the auto business in his year on the board. ‘‘Dan has been involved every step of the way,’’ Whitacre said. ‘‘He knows this business from a board perspective and also from personal conversations. So I think he’s absolutely the right choice.’’ Atlanta authorities arrest possible serial WORLD BRIEFING my scar, I get angry.’’ stabbing suspect ATLANTA (AP) — A suspect in a string of 18 stabbings that terrorized people across three states and left five dead was arrested in front of startled passengers at an airport gate as he tried to board a plane for Israel, offi- cials said Thursday. A judge in Flint, Mich., where the attacks began in late May, signed a warrant Thurs- day charging Elias Abuelazam, 33, with assault with intent to murder in connection with a July 27 stabbing. Antwione Marshall, 26, of Flint, the vic- tim of that attack, told The Associated Press that the FBI visited him at 3 a.m. to show him a picture of the man arrested in Atlanta, and he identified him as the assailant. Marshall said he was going into his apart- ment building when the assailant approached and asked for help fixing his car. He was stabbed twice when he opened the hood. Three of his organs were cut, and he has a long scar from his chest to his pelvic area. Marshall said he wants to retaliate but ‘‘I’ll let God handle it.

Students are required to be at their bus stops 5 minutes prior to the stated pick up time in the morning. Students are also to behave properly at the bus stop and to be on the correct side of the road for the bus. Students are not to assume a school bus will stop for them if they are not at their designated bus stop. Waiting on the wrong side of the road, or at a stop that is not a designated stop is against school bus regulations and could result in injury or an accident. We look forward to this 2010-11 school year and to providing a safe and pleasant ride for all the students. WikiLeaks says it will release remaining intelligence files LONDON (AP) — WikiLeaks spokesman Julian Assange said Thursday his organization is preparing to release the rest of the secret Afghan war documents it has on file. The Pentagon warned that would be more damaging to security and risk more lives than the organization’s initial release of some 76,000 war documents. That extraordinary disclosure, which laid bare classified military documents covering the war in Afghanistan from 2004 to 2010, has angered U.S. officials, energized critics of the NATO-led campaign, and drawn the attention of the Taliban, which has promised to use the material to track down people it considers traitors. The Pentagon says it believes it has iden- tified the additional 15,000 classified docu- ments, and said Thursday that their exposure would be even more damaging to the mili- tary than what has already been published. Pentagon Press Secretary Geoff Morrell described the prospective publication as the ‘‘height of irresponsibility.’’ ‘‘It would compound a mistake that has already put far too many lives at risk,’’ he said. Tests under way to determine if well is already plugged NEW ORLEANS (AP) — In the strongest indication yet that BP’s broken oil well in the Gulf of Mexico may be plugged for good, officials on Thursday said they’re conducting tests to determine if further work to seal the well is needed. A final decision was expected Friday on whether crews need to go ahead with drilling relief wells to allow for a so-called ‘‘bottom kill,’’ in which mud and cement are pumped from deep underground to perma- nently seal the well. Retired Coast Guard Adm. Thad Allen, the Obama administration’s point man on the oil spill, said at a news conference that an earlier effort to temporarily plug the well may have had the unintended effect of creat- ing a permanent seal. However, he cautioned it’s more likely that drilling will continue on two relief wells, which have long been said to be the only way to ensure the blown-out well does- n’t leak again. That work has been delayed because of bad weather and wouldn’t resume for about another four days, if testing shows it’s needed. Last month, after a cap meant to be tem- porary was fitted on top of the broken well and halted the oil flow, crews pumped in mud and cement from above in a so-called ‘‘static kill.’’ Some of the cement may have gone down into the reservoir, come back up and plugged the space between the inner piping and the outer casing — which is what engineers were hoping to do with the bottom kill, Allen said. Blagojevich jurors have agreed on just two counts so far CHICAGO (AP) — Jurors in the corrup- tion trial of former Illinois Gov. Rod Blago- jevich said Thursday that they have reached agreement on just two of 24 counts against him, and haven’t even begun discussing 11 of the counts. The judge quickly said he would tell them to go back and deliberate more. The exchange once again left the court- room in a state of uncertainty, with lawyers and legal experts saying there is no way to know for sure how long the deliberations may go on — but some saying the apparent deadlocks on some counts were a good sign for Blagojevich and his co-defendant broth- er, Robert. The 11 counts the jury has yet to discuss involve wire fraud. Most of them deal with FBI wiretap recordings and the allegation that Blagojevich tried to sell or trade Presi- dent Barack Obama’s old Senate seat. The jurors did not say which two of the 24 counts they had agreed on, nor what their decision was. Former state appellate Judge David Erickson said the jury’s apparent deadlock on 11 counts looks good for the defense. He said if 12 jurors can’t come to an agreement, it shows some have doubts that prosecutors made their case. Flight attendant in meltdown wants to return to flying NEW YORK (AP) — A flight atten- dant suddenly famous for his expletive- filled exit from a plane at New York’s Kennedy Airport wants to return to flying. Steven Slater’s attorney, Howard Tur- man, said at news conference Thursday outside his client’s home that flying ‘‘is in his blood.’’ Turman says the 38-year-old airline veteran is a likable man who enjoys peo- ple and did his job properly. Slater briefly thanked all the people who had sent him support and love since his Monday meltdown aboard a JetBlue flight. Travelers say Slater cursed at passen- gers over the public address system after several odd run-ins with them during the 90-minute flight from Pittsburgh. Indian government sets deadline for BlackBerry to address security concerns NEW DELHI (AP) — India’s Home Ministry threatened Thursday to block BlackBerry corporate e-mail and mes- saging services unless the device’s man- ufacturer makes them accessible to its security agencies by Aug. 31. The ministry said that if no technical solution is provided by then, it will take steps to block the services from the country’s mobile phone network. The phones are made by Canada’s Research In Motion Ltd. Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates have also threatened to cut off popular BlackBerry services unless they get greater access to user information. Like India, they’ve cited security con- cerns in pushing for access to encrypted information sent by the cell phones that gets routed through servers overseas. India has asked for encrypted Black- Berry communications to be made easi- ly available to its intelligence and law enforcement agencies, saying that the services could be used by militant groups. The 10 heavily armed gunmen who rampaged through Mumbai, India’s financial capital, in November 2008, killing 166 people, used cell and satellite phones to communicate with their Pak- istan-based handlers, according to Indi- an officials.
