Murder trial in the death of Maritza Ramirez-Cruz is set to start on Monday .
Annette Morales-Rodriguez, 34, is accused of slaying 23-year-old Maritza Ramirez-Cruz for her unborn child .
Suspect admits she scoured the streets for pregnant women because boyfriend wanted a child .
Rodriguez, who retracted an insanity plea, has pleaded not guilty . | By . Daily Mail Reporter . UPDATED: . 15:59 EST, 16 September 2012 . It's been almost a year since Maritza Ramirez-Cruz, 23, bled to death when her full-term fetus was cut from her womb, and her three surviving children in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, don't go a day without asking about her. The children and their father, Christian Mercado, are getting psychiatric help to deal with the horrors, which will be rehashed at the trial that starts on Monday of the woman charged in the killing. Carlos Mercado, and his fiancee, Darla Gutierrez, moved into the apartment below his son's shortly after the October 2011 attack to help care for his son and the children - daughters ages 5 and 7 and a 3-year-old son - who still don't understand what happened. Family support: Carlos Mercado, the father-in-law to slain mother Maritza Ramirez-Cruz, is pictured beside his fiancee Darla Gutierrez outside their Milwaukee home where they have been living beneath his son Christian . Family: Darla Gutierrez holds up a picture of Maritza Ramirez-Cruz, bottom left, around her three children and husband . '"Where's mom? When is she coming home?" They are too young to comprehend that,' Ms Gutierrez said. Morales-Rodriguez, 34, is accused of faking a pregnancy, panicking as her supposed due date approached and then luring the 23-year-old Ramirez-Cruz to her house. There she attacked her with a baseball bat, choked her and then used an X-Acto knife to cut the fetus out, according to the criminal complaint. According to court documents, Morales-Rodriguez had a couple of miscarriages and her boyfriend wanted a son. Prosecutors say she planned for two weeks to look for a pregnant woman and take her baby. She found Ramirez-Cruz, who was due any day, around a nonprofit organization that provides Hispanics with social services and offered her a ride. Ramirez-Cruz died of blood loss and asphyxiation, and her fetus, a boy, died as a result of her death, authorities say. Charged: The trial against Annette Morales-Rodriguez, 34, accused of killing Maritza Ramirez-Cruz and cutting out her baby in October last year is set to start on Monday . Police say Morales-Rodriguez then hid Ramirez-Cruz's body in her basement. Later that evening, emergency services responded to a . call from Morales-Rodriguez, who said that she had . just given birth to a child who was not breathing, according to the . criminal complaint. Paramedics were unable to revive the boy and he was pronounced dead at the scene. Morales-Rodriguez was taken to the hospital but, . after an autopsy of the full-term baby - and medical examinations of the . woman herself, it was determined that she was not pregnant and had not recently given birth. The next day, police returned to Morales-Rodriguez's home and found Ramirez-Cruz's mutilated body. Morales-Rodriguez is charged with two . counts of intentional homicide, including homicide of an unborn child. A . conviction on either count carries a mandatory life sentence, although a . judge could allow for the possibility of parole. Wisconsin does not . have the death penalty. Tragedy: Maritza Ramirez-Cruz had three children and was expecting her fourth when she was savagely murdered after offered a ride . Victim: Maritza Ramirez-Cruz, 23, was expecting her fourth child when she was murdered last October. Her baby boy, who she planned to call Omar, also died . Her . original lawyers had planned to use an insanity defense, but her new . lawyers changed her plea Thursday to not guilty. A court-ordered doctor . didn't find evidence to support the insanity plea. A . judge also ruled last week that an incriminating statement she made to a . detective in an emergency room would be admissible at trial, even . though the detective failed to explain her right to remain silent. He . ruled it admissible under a public welfare or emergency rescue exception . because police didn't know yet that Ramirez-Cruz was dead. Gutierrez and Carlos Mercado said they hope the trial brings peace of mind to the family. 'They are just dragging it on and dragging it on and the family needs closure,' Gutierrez said. Mercado said he will be at his son's side during the trial. Suspect: Annette Morales-Rodriguez, seen left and right, is accused of wanting the baby after faking a pregnancy and her alleged due date approaching. Morales-Rodriguez has pleaded not guilty . 'I have to go with him,' he said, as he wiped away tears. 'It's going to be hard for me and hard for him. I have to help him.' The . trial is expected to last a week, with the state calling 25 to 30 . witnesses. Prosecutor Mark Williams said he plans to play . Morales-Rodriguez's videotaped confession to police. Morales-Rodriguez's . lawyers have declined to discuss the case, and it wasn't known whether . she plans to testify. Mercado and Gutierrez said they don't think they could ever forgive her. 'They . always teach you to forgive but something like this, no,' Gutierrez . said. 'You see everything Maritza had in her in her daughters.' They hope she is convicted and gets life without parole. Crime scene: The house near 7th and Mitchell streets, where Annette Morales-Rodriguez allegedly killed 23-year-old Ramirez-Cruz . 'I want the judge to recognize what she did and give her what she deserves,' Mercado said. Similar . cases of women taking an unborn child from a mother's womb were . reported in Massachusetts and Oregon in 2009, in Pennsylvania in 2007, . in Illinois in 2006 and Missouri in 2004. In the Oregon case, a woman obsessed with having a baby pleaded guilty last year to the murder of a pregnant woman whose unborn child was cut from her abdomen after she was bludgeoned to death. Korena Roberts, 29, was sentenced to life in prison without the possibility of parole. In Massachusetts, a Worcester woman, Julie Corey, pleaded not guilty to killing her pregnant friend, Darlene Hayes, and cutting the baby from Hayes' womb. Corey and the baby were found in a homeless shelter in Plymouth, N.H., in July 2009, just days after Hayes was found dead with a fractured skull. |

Titania is the largest moon of Uranus by diameter. Which is the second largest? | Uranus' Moon Titania - Universe Today Universe Today by Matt Williams Like all of the Solar Systems’ gas giants, Uranus has an extensive system of moons. In fact, astronomers can now account for 27 moons in orbit around Uranus. Of these, none are greater in size, mass, or surface area than Titania. One of the first moon’s to be discovered around Uranus, this heavily cratered and scarred moon was appropriately named after the fictional Queen of the Fairies. Discovery and Naming: Titania was discovered by William Herschel on January 11th, 1787, the English astronomer who had discovered Uranus in 1781. The discovery was also made on the same day that he discovered Oberon , Uranus’ second-largest moon. Although Herschel reported observing four other moons at the time, the Royal Astronomical Society would later determine that this claim was spurious. It would be almost five decades after Titania and Oberon was discovered that an astronomer other than Herschel would observe them. In addition, Titania would be referred to as “the first satellite of Uranus” for many years – or by the designation Uranus I, which was given to it by William Lassell in 1848. By 1851, Lassell began to number all four known satellites in order of their distance from the planet by Roman numerals, at which point Titania’s designation became Uranus III. By 1852, Herschel’s son John, and at the behest of Lassell himself, suggested the moon’s name be changed to Titania, the Queen of the Fairies in A Midsummer Night’s Dream. This was consistent with all of Uranus’ satellites, which were given names from the works of William Shakespeare and Alexander Pope. A montage of Uranus’s moons. Image credit: NASA Size, Mass and Orbit: With a diameter of 1,578 kilometers, a surface area of 7,820,000 km² and a mass of 3.527±0.09 × 1021 kg, Titania is the largest of Uranus’ moons and the eighth largest moon in the Solar System. At a distance of about 436,000 km (271,000 mi), Titania is also the second farthest from the planet of the five major moons. Titania’s moon also has a small eccentricity and is inclined very little relative to the equator of Uranus. It’s orbital period, which is 8.7 days, is also coincident with it’s rotational period. This means that Titania is a synchronous (or tidally-locked) satellite, with one face always pointing towards Uranus at all times. Because Uranus orbits the Sun on its side, and its moons orbit the planet’s equatorial plane, they are all subject to an extreme seasonal cycle, where the northern and southern poles experience 42 years of either complete darkness or complete sunlight. Composition: Scientists believe Titania is composed of equal parts rock (which may include carbonaceous materials and organic compounds) and ice. This is supported by examinations that indicate that Titania has an unusually high-density for a Uranian satellite (1.71 g/cm³). The presence of water ice is supported by infrared spectroscopic observations made in 2001–2005, which have revealed crystalline water ice on the surface of the moon. Uranus and its five major moons, with Titania being the farthest left. Credit: space.com It is also believed that Titania is differentiated into a rocky core surrounded by an icy mantle. If true, this would mean that the core’s radius is approx. 520 km (320 mi), which would mean the core accounts for 66% of the radius of the moon, and 58% of its mass. As with Uranus’ other major moons, the current state of the icy mantle is unknown. However, if the ice contains enough ammonia or other antifreeze, Titania may have a liquid ocean layer at the core-mantle boundary. The thickness of this ocean, if it exists, is up to 50 km (31 mi) and its temperature is around 190 K. Naturally, it is unlikely that such an ocean could support life. But assuming this ocean supports hydrothermal vents on its floor, it is possible life could exist in small patches close to the core. However, the internal structure of Oberon depends heavily on its thermal history, which is poorly known at present. Voyager 2: The only direct observations made of T |

In what country were the terracotta warriors discovered in 1974? | China's Terracotta Warrior Photos China's Terracotta Warrior Photos Terracotta Warrior's Locator Map The Terracotta Army or the "Terra Cotta Warriors and Horses", is a collection of terracotta sculptures depicting the armies of Qin Shi Huang, the first Emperor of China. It is a form of funerary art buried with the emperor in 210–209 BC and whose purpose was to protect the emperor in his afterlife, and to make sure that he had people to rule over. The figures, dating from 3rd century BC, were discovered in 1974 by some local farmers in Lintong District, Xi'an, Shaanxi province, near the Mausoleum of the First Qin Emperor, Qín Shǐhuáng Ling. The figures vary in height according to their roles, with the tallest being the generals. The figures include warriors, chariots and horses. Current estimates are that in the three pits containing the Terracotta Army there were over 8,000 soldiers, 130 chariots with 520 horses and 150 cavalry horses, the majority of which are still buried in the pits. The Terracotta Army figures were manufactured in workshops by government laborers and by local craftsmen, and the material used to make the terracotta warriors originated on Mount Li. The head, arms, legs and torsos were created separately and then assembled Once assembled, intricate features such as facial expressions were added. It is believed that their legs were made in much the same way that terracotta drainage pipes were manufactured at the time. A collection of 120 objects from the mausoleum and 20 of the warriors were first displayed outside of China at the British Museum in London in 2007. I saw the same touring group at the Houston Musuem of Natural Science, and was absolutely impressed. This group of tourists have traveled to Xi'an, China, and directly below their vantage point they are about to see one of the most fascinating sites on the planet. And this is their view of the Terracotta Army, discovered in the spring of 1974 to the east of Xi'an in Shaanxi province by a group of farmers when they were digging a water well around 1 mile (1.6 km) east of the Qin emperor's tomb mound at Mount Li, a region riddled with underground springs and watercourses. For centuries, there were occasional reports of pieces of terracotta figures and fragments of the Qin necropolis – roofing tiles, bricks, and chunks of masonry – found in the area. This most recent discovery prompted Chinese archaeologists to investigate, and they unearthed the largest pottery figurine group ever found in China. The terracotta figures are life-sized. They vary in height, uniform and hairstyle in accordance with rank. Most originally held real weapons such as spears, swords, or crossbows. The figures were also originally painted with bright pigments, variously coloured in pink, red, green, blue, black, brown, white and lilac. The colored lacquer finish, individual facial features, and actual weapons used in producing these figures created a realistic appearance. According to historian Sima Qian (145–90 BC), work on this mausoleum began in 246 BC soon after Emperor Qin ascended the throne (then aged 13), and the full construction later involved 700,000 workers. As you can see, many of the figures did not survive their burial. These four bronze horses with a chariot for the emperor were found together. Combined they're the largest bronze sculpture found in the world. When discovered, they were broken into more than 16.000 pieces, and now they're completely restored Only a portion of the site is presently excavated, and photos and video recordings are prohibited in some viewing areas. Only a few foreign dignitaries, such as Queen Elizabeth II, have been permitted to walk through the pits to observe the army at close quarters.. |

Ole Solvang: Report based on more than 200 interviews tells about Syrian government torture .
Syrian authorities are running a network of underground detention facilities, he says .
Solvang: With this information now public, Syrian authorities' crimes will not stay secret .
The question now, Solvang says, is: Who will hold those responsible to account? | Paris (CNN) -- The new Human Rights Watch report "Torture Archipelago" documents in excruciating detail the use of torture in government detention facilities in Syria, including how, where, when and under whose command this torture was carried out. Documenting human rights violations in Syria is anything but easy, so how did we do it? Since the beginning of anti-government demonstrations in March 2011, Syria has been doing whatever it can to keep independent observers from finding out what exactly is going on. For many months, it refused to issue visas for such work, and widespread violations were committed with few independent witnesses. Some journalists from outside Syria bravely crossed the border without official permission, to provide valuable first-hand accounts of attacks and violations. But crossing the border illegally can be dangerous. Several journalists have been arrested and others killed on these assignments, making Syria one of the deadliest countries for journalists at the moment. News: Report describes brutal torture in Syria . In April of this year, Syria finally agreed to the deployment of 300 United Nations observers and to grant visas to some journalists, but those who got into Syria have faced difficulties on the ground. When members from the U.N. observer mission, accompanied by several journalists, tried to investigate claims of a massacre in the small village of Qubeir on June 7, Syrian government forces initially prevented them from entering the village. When the observers finally entered the village one day later, they saw clear evidence that something terrible had happened. Journalists on the scene reported that "the smell of burnt flesh still hung heavy in the air" and that "blood was in pools" in a house. But somebody had removed the bodies. It is hard to not draw the conclusion that government forces held up the U.N. observers while somebody tried to clean up the crime scene. News: In Syria, a massacre feels eerily familiar . On June 16, the U.N. observer mission suspended its patrols in Syria because of increased fighting. The observer mission had also come under attack on several occasions. Further complicating the work of impartial observers is the increasing amount of propaganda from both sides. We have long since stopped trusting any information coming from the government, but we cannot always trust information from opposition activists either. Some are reluctant, for example, to admit that a victim was an opposition fighter, instead presenting the person as a civilian. So how does Human Rights Watch overcome these challenges? We get the best evidence when we are able to examine the crime scenes ourselves. Despite significant risks, we have entered Syria without official permission on several occasions to investigate alleged violations. The last time, in April, we visited five towns that had just been attacked in the northern province of Idlib. We photographed bullet marks and blood traces on walls where people had been executed during the army's attack. We interviewed neighbors who had found the bodies, and in one case, we even spoke with a wounded person who had survived an execution attempt. But rights-abusing governments cannot count on hiding the truth even if they manage to keep observers out. Syrians are still leaving the country in large numbers. By comparing information from multiple, separate, detailed witness accounts, we are wresting out the truth despite the best attempts of Syria's intelligence agencies. "Torture Archipelago" is based on more than 200 long and detailed interviews. We asked former inmates of government detention centers not only about the torture, but also about the layout of buildings, the location of the interrogation rooms and torture chambers, and the names of guards and fellow inmates. We documented scars and studied photographs. We asked former detainees to draw the layout of the detention floor, and we asked them to point out on satellite imagery the exact building where they were detained and tortured. We posed the same questions to defectors from the army and intelligence facilities who visited or worked in these facilities, many of whom gave us names and ranks of their superiors overseeing these detention facilities. What we found is that Syrian authorities are running a network of underground detention facilities. We have identified the locations, names of commanders, and torture methods of many of these. While the actual number is probably higher, the 27 detention facilities listed in our report are those for which multiple witnesses have indicated the same building and described in detail the torture methods being used there. By publishing this information, we are putting Syrian authorities on notice that their crimes will not stay secret. It can take time -- it has taken us several months to map these detention facilities -- but with enough perseverance, the truth will come out about the violations taking place in Syria. The question then becomes: Who will hold those responsible to account? The opinions expressed in this commentary are solely those of Ole Solvang. |
