The commonwealth found a

of potential witnesses and an interview

Shell is accused of giving

The case has been delayed

Sept. 4, 2006 Randy and Erika Nash were killed

Shortly before the crash, Randy

"we're kind lost in some fog here," and
later, " i think we're upside down."

Nash was rated to fly under
visual flight rules. The report
indicates that poor weather conditions,

and his disorientation also played a
role in the accident.

MAN: YAH, YAH, IT DOES WORK,

IT'S CLEANER NOW ISN'T IT - USED TO BE
RUBBISH EVERYWHERE.

Oh yes. Street trash is down by NINETY

So watch out for Big Brother.

April Stewart says after a 6am meeting

would only describe as his peers - he
realizes he should not have accused
NASCAR of throwing phantom caution

flags to shape the outcome of a race.

Stewart says he knows he said
some stupid stuff that likely hurt the
sport.

He has appologized and was fined
$10 thousand bucks for skipping
Sunday's mandatory postrace interview
session..

However, several drivers
incliding Kasey Kahne and Greg Biffle
said today Stewart was only saying what
we all think about a lot.
