PoliticsUN ends sanctions for 14 former Taliban Security Council removes ex-Taliban men from sanctions list in bid to induce the armed group into peace talks. 16 Jul 2011 08:03 GMT | Politics, Asia, US & Canada, Afghanistan, Germany The US is in contact with the Taliban about a possible settlement to the war in Afghanistan, Hamid Karzai said [Reuters] The UN Security Council removed 14 former Taliban from its sanctions list as part of moves to induce the armed group into talks with the Afghan government on a peace deal in Afghanistan. Those de-listed by a special sanctions committee included four members of a 70-strong High Peace Council set up by Afghan authorities last September to pave the way for talks, the German UN mission announced in a statement on Friday. Germany holds the Security Council presidency this month. The move came in response to a request from Kabul to take off the list a number of former Taliban figures that the government believes have given up militancy, according to the statement. Afghan officials had said they were seeking the de-listing of about 20 people. Some Security Council members, notably Russia, are more cautious about removing names. The peace council members include: Arsalan Rahmani Daulat, a former Taliban deputy higher education minister; Habibullah Fawzi, a former Taliban diplomat in Saudi Arabia; Sayeedur Rahman Haqani, former Taliban deputy minister for mines and industries and later for public works; and Faqir Mohammad. President Hamid Karzai's office has called the creation of the council a significant step towards peace. But the Taliban have so far scoffed at the idea of talks, saying all foreign forces must first leave Afghanistan. The US is preparing to start pulling out its 97,000 troops in Afghanistan as part of a process to hand over all combat operations against the Taliban to Afghan security forces by 2014. 'Strong signal' In a statement, Germany's UN Ambassador Peter Wittig said the committee's decision "sends a strong signal: the Security Council and the international community support the efforts of the Afghan government to engage reconciled Taliban in a political dialogue in order to achieve peace and security". "The international community recognizes efforts made by members of the High Peace Council to work toward peace, stability and reconciliation. All Afghans are encouraged to join these efforts. The message is clear: engaging for peace pays off," Wittig said. The move comes four weeks after the Security Council decided to split what was previously a joint list of Taliban and al-Qaeda figures into two separate lists. The split was intended to persuade Taliban waverers they were not being lumped together with the global al-Qaeda movement. Until Friday's decision, the Taliban list contained 137 names. Those listed are subject to sanctions that include travel bans and asset freezes. The Afghan Taliban, which ruled the country before being driven from power by US-backed forces in 2001, was playing host to al-Qaeda leader Osama bin Laden when he launched the September 11 attacks on the US. Separating the two movements has long been a Western goal. Robert Gates, the former US defence decretary, last month said there could be political talks with the Taliban by the end of this year if the NATO alliance kept making military advances on the ground, putting pressure on the insurgents.Source: Agencies

Gilbert Melendez: A Fighter Waiting in the Wings
Benson Henderson surprised many of us last Saturday, when he cut down Nate Diaz with considerable ease. How many more challengers are out there for this man to fight? Henderson has already triumphed over Frankie Edgar, Clay Guida and Jim Miller. So then, who is next or rather, who should be next?
There is a worthy opponent who has been patiently waiting in the wings, waiting to prove his superiority. That man is Gilbert Melendez.
Melendez has been in the game for a long time. Melendez has been the Strikeforce lightweight champ, comfortably, for quite some time. Since his title victory back in 2009, Melendez has since then, defended his title with little effort. Melendez is a champion who needs to push himself further; he needs to prove who the top lightweight in the world is.
There is nothing worse than a champion who still has the urge to prove himself. Melendez has been very patient with this dilemma. With the inevitable downfall of Strikeforce in January, the time for Melendez to really prove himself is now. Melendez recently commented on who his next opponent should be.
"I want to fight Benson Henderson."
"I think a champion versus champion fight makes absolute sense right now. I think we already know how things are going to work out between Benson Henderson and a lot of other lightweight fighters in the UFC, but I'm that mystery fighter. No one really knows how I'm going to matchup with anyone. I have been around for a long time and have been the top lightweight in the world before Benson or any of these other guys."
"I think everyone would be really excited for this matchup, and I guarantee it would be a great fight. We can do it in the Octagon or the Strikeforce cage—it doesn't matter to me. Henderson is the fight I want, and let's make it happen."
The iron is hot, it is time to strike. The end of Strikeforce is drawing closer and top fighters, such as Ronda Rousey are being herded into the UFC. It's only fair, for a veteran, like Melendez to make that career transition as well.
Melendez deserves this opportunity to take on Henderson. It would be an amazing fight as both fighters do share similar qualities. I think we should get to see who the best lightweight fighter in the world is.
Let's make this happen.

Epilogue - Thrust and Twirl
The pencil slides in and out of her hot, wet, ear canal.The next day the erotic exchange continued the minute Dari entered the classroom. Miss Tokyomama sat at her desk, talking distractedly about chemistry, her eyes locked with Dari's. She picked up a pencil and sharpened in slowly, licking her lips as she did so. Then, with a gentle thrusting motion, she pushed it into her ear canal searching out tenacious wax deposits. In and out the pencil slid, thrust and twirl, the eraser widened her ear canal as it pumped like a number two oil derrick.Dari couldn't take it anymore, a fountain of semen burst forth from his groin like a Biblical flood with such force that it pinned his desk to the ceiling. Blood sprayed from his nose, joining the torrent and coating the ceiling in a mixture so vile that only the Japanese could find it erotic.
"Mr. Armostrongo!" cried Miss Tokyomama with mock outrage, "you will have to stay after school today for a private conference!"
Hows about you, me, and five uncomfortable minutes in my basement apartment next to the dusty Christmas tree that's still up from my last visit with my estranged children.

Natural Resources and Rural Development
The Beaver State was built by Americans who relied on the land for their livelihood. Natural resource industries like farming, forestry, and salmon fishing remain integral to Oregon's economy today. Our state has also long been a destination for Americans looking to experience the great outdoors. Oregon's protected public lands provide valuable habitats, supply clean water, and generate jobs through sustainable harvests, recreation, and tourism. Preserving our natural resources and making smart decisions about economic development will help spur rural growth and ensure that future generations can enjoy Oregon's wild places and public lands while putting people to work.

Alamo Drafthouse founders sue
Allege that business partners mislead them
- Jean Kwon
- ABJ Staff
Timothy and Karrie League, founders of iconic local movie theater chain Alamo Drafthouse, have sued the company they tapped to spread the dinner theaters across the country.
In a lawsuit filed in late February in Travis County District Court, the Leagues sue: John Martin, president and CEO of Alamo Drafthouse Cinemas Ltd., the company that bought the rights to the Alamo brand; the company itself; and several of its partners. The Leagues allege Martin and others mislead the Leagues, who kept a financial stake in the company, about franchise plans and fraudulently lured the Leagues to sell their rights to the Alamo brand.
Martin "is surprised and concerned" the Leagues would file a lawsuit and "wants to work with them on this," said Bill Miller, a spokesman for Alamo Drafthouse Cinemas. He said some of the defendants are still being served and that a formal response wouldn't be issued for several weeks.
The Leagues' attorneys at Graves Dougherty Hearon & Moody PC declined to comment.
The Leagues founded Alamo Drafthouse in 1997 with a second-run movie theater in the downtown warehouse district that was unique for serving a full menu and beer. After opening several locations and establishing the company as a local institution, in 2004 the Leagues sold the brand, its intellectual property and rights to franchise operations to a partnership led by Martin and a partner, David Kennedy, which formed Alamo Drafthouse Cinemas. The Leagues retained a 10 percent limited partnership interest, according to the suit.
Martin, "as an inducement to the sales transaction," told the Leagues that his plan was to open 200 franchise locations in three to five years, the plaintiffs allege in the suit. The Leagues, the suit goes on to say, were also "induced to enter the transaction by assurances that they would be secure in their sharing of the growth and profits of the franchise operation through their 10 percent ownership."
Instead of enlisting new franchisees, Martin and Kennedy proceeded to "enter into a series of related-party transactions and self-dealing in derogation of the Leagues' interest," including opening only corporate-owned theaters that yielded no franchise profits, says the lawsuit. Only one franchise theater is in operation, according to the suit. The company has nine locations in Texas and Virginia. According to Miller, three of those locations are corporate-owned.
Since the Leagues' sale, Alamo Drafthouse Cinemas has merged with another entity owned by Martin and Kennedy, which has eroded the Leagues' ownership in the original partnership from 10 percent to 2.24 percent, the lawsuit says. Martin and Kennedy "intended from the outset that the Leagues would never realize any financial benefit from their participation in the partnership," the lawsuit alleges.
It's unclear what impact the lawsuit will have on planned locations. Martin has said he plans to build a $5 million theater in Circle C Ranch this year, one in San Antonio, six theaters in Dallas and 10 theaters in Virginia. The company also expects to have 30 locations by the end of 2010 in Florida, Georgia, Oklahoma and Arizona, Martin said in December 2008. He didn't specify whether those would be franchised operations.
"The company does not believe the lawsuit poses any risks to existing franchisees or Alamo's ability to open new franchises," Miller said.

Virginia State Police responded to a single-vehicle accident on U.S. 52 on Monday, when a logging truck lost control and overturned, blocking one lane of traffic.
According to a report from Trooper C.M. Delp, Kevin Wayne Goins, 42, of Mount Airy, N.C., was operating a 1987 Ford L9000 log truck loaded with logs, traveling north on 52, when his vehicle ran off the right side of the highway and into the ditch.
"When [Goins] tried to bring it out, it overturned, and the logs fell off of the truck," Delp said.
HILLSVILLE — The Carroll County School Board heard a number of requests from young visitors for a middle school soccer team during the citizen comments portion of the Nov. 11 meeting.
The idea of a soccer team was introduced to the board in October by middle school principal Marc Quesenberry, who told the board that interest in the sport had spiked this year.
In the wake of former council member Bill Webb's resignation from his seat on Galax City Council, the remaining members will need to hold a special election to fill his seat.
Council elected to file a petition and writ of election with court to hold it in November 2015, so that the special election could be paid for from the November election budget.
HILLSVILLE — Santa might not arrive for another couple of weeks, but the Carroll County Industrial Development Authority (IDA) stepped into St. Nick's generous boots on Monday to gift the county supervisors with two checks, one for $1.27 million and another for nearly $119,000.
The payments were for the Wildwood Commerce Park project and the Parkdale/Vanguard Furniture property.
IDA Chairman Barry Hicks presented the checks on behalf of the IDA, noting that the authority "has been working to assist the county in any way possible."
A two-vehicle, head-on collision on Skyline Highway (Virginia 89) south of Galax led to one fatality about 7 a.m. Tuesday
The wreck was near Galax Roller Land in Grayson County.
Brian Mark Lundy, 44, of Galax, died in the collision. Emily Rose Hash, 37, also of Galax, was in critical condition and was being transported to Wake Forest Baptist Medical Center in Winston-Salem, N.C., according to Virginia State Trooper J.N. Sowers.
WOODLAWN – The Carroll County Sheriff's Department is investigating a break-in and vandalism that occurred at Woodlawn School the night of Nov. 29 or early on the morning of Nov. 30.
Carroll Deputy Jake Worrell, who is investigating the case, said entry to the school was made by busting open a door leading to the cafeteria.
After official announcements earlier this year that Twin County Regional Hospital would get a new open MRI machine to complement its new CT scanner unveiled this summer, the device was shown to the public at an open house last Thursday night.
According to radiologist Dr. Jay Bolen, on hand along with Radiology Director David Payne to demonstrate how the new MRI images will look at and to answer questions, the machine will alleviate multiple problems inherent in older systems.
Galax City Council has accepted a letter of resignation from council member Bill Webb.
Webb was not at council's Nov. 24 meeting and has been absent for several.
"'It is with deep regret that I must tender my resignation as a Galax City Council member, effective Nov. 24, 2014,'" read Mayor C.M. Mitchell. "'I have enjoyed my time on the council and the efforts we have made over the past six years have made a difference in the lives of your citizens.'"
HILLSVILLE — The Carroll County Board of Supervisors has approved a "moral obligation" agreement with Virginia Community Capital to provide a line of credit of up to $1 million for the Southwest Virginia Farmers Market.
All around the Twin Counties this weekend will be Christmas celebrations, parades, visits from Santa, caroling, kids' activities, tree lightings, fundraisers for worth causes and more holiday cheer. To plan for the busy weekend, here's a roundup of all the events planned in Galax, Hillsville, Independence and Fries.
Tree Lighting
Dozens are expected to pack Independence Town Park this Friday for a Christmas tree lighting ceremony and related holiday hoopla, all starting around 6 p.m.

Upcoming Event
New Big Lots CEO David Campisi hitting the road to assess business
The new CEO of Big Lots Inc. is ready to hit the road. David Campisi got his first public unveiling Thursday as the Columbus-based closeout retailer released its first-quarter results and held a conference call for stock analysts, giving the new CEO his first chance to talk about the business.
"I'm excited about what I see," he said.
Campisi started this month, replacing the now retired Steve Fishman, who had led the business since 2005. He said he's spent time meeting the home office staff and is ready to do a deep dive into the business with store visits and walk-throughs with the company's team of 35 buyers.
"The next 70 days are going to be heavily focused on merchandising, marketing and store operations," Campisi said.
Once through that, having identified where the opportunities are and what might be holding the company back, he said he'll start talking about plans.
The call also gave Campisi the chance to tout his background, which includes 30 years of retail experience in home goods, food and grocery, apparel, electronics and general merchandise — all of which are categories that Big Lots sells.
"I'm a merchant," he said.
Campisi's was president and CEO at Sports Authority Inc. and has held other executive positions at Kohl's Corp. (NYSE:KSS), Kroger Co.'s (NYSE:KR) Fred Meyer Inc. chain, among others.
Big Lots (NYSE:BIG) has 1,505 stores in the U.S. and another 79 in Canada under the Liquidation World and LW names. The company opened its 80th store Canada, the first with the Big Lots brand, in April.

Is it the face of an angel? According to some, yes. The face of an angel can be seen in a monument to the World Trade Center made of twisted steel from the site.
By Catholic Online (NEWS CONSORTIUM)
Catholic Online (www.catholic.org)
12/10/2013 (1 year ago)
Published in Living Faith
Keywords: miracle, angel, 9/11, memorial, monument
NEW YORK, NY (Catholic Online) - When viewed from the correct angle, an angelic visage on a twisted steel beam from the World Trade Center, comes into view. The beam is believed to be one of several that American Airlines Flight 11 slammed into on Sept. 11, 2001.
The beam was weakened by the intense fire stoked by hotly-burning aviation fuel as well as the tremendous weight of the many floors above the impact zone. Eventually the beam twisted and gave way, along with dozens of others, as the upper floors of the WTC came crashing down.
Once buried under a small mountain of rubble, the beam was then exposed to water, rust, salts and other elements which likely imprinted the pattern on its surface.
Or, it could actually just be a miracle intended to comfort those who view the memorial?
No matter the origin, the angelic face should serve as a reminder and a comfort to those who lost loved ones on that fateful day. In the face of such deep misery and despair, God's angels went to work, plucking souls from buried, broken bodies to carry to heaven on that fateful day where we believe they were made whole again in communion with beloved Christ.
View the images and decide for yourself.
Can you see it?
Look closely. Is this the face of an angel? Some think so.
