This film first aired in February.Wednesday, December 21, 1988 was the longest night of the year, the night of the winter solstice. At 6.30pm that evening Pan Am Flight 103 took off from London Heathrow airport en route to JFK New York. On board Clipper Maid of the Skies, as it was called, were 16 crew members and 243 passengers, many of whom were carrying Christmas gifts in their luggage for family and friends.
But also in the baggage hold was a brown Samsonite suitcase, packed with new clothes and a Toshiba radio cassette player. Investigators later determined that hidden in the Toshiba were some 450 grammes of high explosive and an electronic timer. At 7.03pm as the plane was 31,000 feet over Scotland, the device exploded. A little under a minute later, 200,000 pounds of Kerosene ignited as the wings and part of the fuselage fell onto the small Scottish town of Lockerbie. All on board were killed; so too were 11 residents of Lockerbie - 270 innocent people murdered by a terrorist bomb.
Twenty-three years later, the scene changes to a small house on the outskirts of Tripoli in Libya, where the only man found guilty of causing those events lies helpless in bed. Abdel Baset al-Megrahi, whom the world knows as the Lockerbie bomber, is dying of prostate cancer. For the first, last and only time he is about to give a television interview about his case - and he is to tell Al Jazeera that new evidence will prove that he was wrongly convicted.
The Lockerbie disaster was Europe's worst terrorist outrage - more civilians died than in any other attack before 9/11. It has also become the most infamous. The events of that night, the painstaking police forensic investigation that followed, the identification of al-Megrahi and Libya as the likely culprits, his eventual trial and conviction in Holland, the overwhelming sense of relief that justice had been done felt by many relatives of the victims, and the controversy surrounding his subsequent return to Libya on compassionate grounds - all of these things have been the subject of intense scrutiny over the years.
As has been the growing concern, felt by some, that al-Megrahi may have been wrongly accused.
This film, Lockerbie: Case Closed, will give hope to all those who believe that the Libyan is an innocent man and not the mass murderer that the prosecution claimed at his trial.
It reveals the hitherto secret assessment of the Scottish Criminal Case Review Commission (SCCRC) - a quasi-public body in Scotland that is independent from the courts and the government - which has examined the case against al-Megrahi in detail. Its report, which has never been published, raises numerous reasons for concern about a possible miscarriage of justice - especially the status of the testimony given by one Tony Gauci, a Maltese shop owner and the prosecution's main witness. He identified al-Megrahi as a man who had bought clothing and an umbrella from him on December 7, 1988 - remnants of which were later recovered from among debris from the disaster scene and which, according to investigators, had been in the same suitcase as the bomb.
As the film shows, the SCCRC found a number of reasons to seriously question this identification and Gauci's account about events on December 7 - the only date that al-Megrahi could have been in Malta to make such purchases. The report also raises concerns about the legitimacy of the formal identification process, in which Gauci picked al-Megrahi out from a line-up. The commission found that Gauci had seen al-Megrahi's photo in a magazine article identifying him as a possible suspect before the parade took place. The SCCRC also found that Scottish police knew that Gauci was interested in financial rewards, despite maintaining that Gauci had shown no such interest. Gauci reportedly picked up a $2m US government reward for his role in the case. Under Scottish law, witnesses cannot be paid for their testimony.
Prior to his return home, al-Megrahi had been seeking an appeal against his conviction. Had that hearing ever taken place then the SCCRC's conclusions and their evidence would have come to light. On that basis alone, the Libyan would have almost certainly walked from court a free man. However, the film also reveals the results of new scientific tests that comprehensively undermine the validity of the most crucial piece of forensic evidence linking the bombing to Libya - a fragment of electronic timer found embedded in the shredded remains of a shirt that was supposedly bought from Gauci's shop by al-Megrahi. The timer, said the prosecution, was identical to ones sold to Libyan intelligence by Swiss manufacturers. But as the new tests show, it was not identical and it now seems that British government scientists knew this all along.
John Ashton, who has been investigating the case for nearly 20 years, including time spent as part of al-Megrahi's defence team, has written a book on the affair with al-Megrahi. In the Al Jazeera film he says:
"The Lockerbie disaster was Europe's worst terrorist attack. More Americans died in that attack than in any other terrorist event before 9/11. It's also Britain's worst miscarriage of justice, the wrong man was convicted and the real killers are still out there."
Lockerbie: Case Closed was produced and directed by William Cran and Christopher Jeans and is a Network Features production for Al Jazeera. It is narrated by Sean Barrett.

Federal 'Tax Breaks' or 'It's My Money'?
Image by Robin Jareaux/Getty Images.
Paul Solman answers questions from the NewsHour audience on business and economic news here on his Making Sen$e page. Here is Wednesday's query, a comment sent by a viewer from Kansas:
Barbara Penn: Hello Paul. I believe there was a mistake in your reporting. Charitable deductions, itemized deductions and exclusions don't cost the government anything. It isn't the government's money in the first place. Will you please consider this when reporting on this topic again? Thank you.
Paul Solman: Sure, Barbara, happy to consider this. Indeed, after reading about my "mistake," I felt obliged to.
The mistake, if I understand you, is that tax breaks in general do not "cost the government" because taxes in general do not belong to the government "in the first place." Instead, they belong to you and me, among others.
But by that logic, the services supported by that tax money do not belong to us, but to "the government"? So let me get this straight: there's an entity called "the government" that exists independently of us? It takes our money. And then it does what with that money? Play PowerBall? Burn it in effigy? Give it to aliens?
Actually, doesn't it give the money BACK to the people it taxes? Not always efficiently, I've noticed, as I'm sure you have. Corruptly, even, every once in awhile. But you there in Kansas get nothing for your taxes? No Medicare? No storm warnings? No disaster aid? If Canada should invade, will the army not come to your defense?
In researching a response to your email, I discovered that, according to data from the IRS and Census Bureau, as compiled by The Economist magazine, Kansas paid $307.1 billion in federal taxes in the years 1990-2009. How much did the federal government spend on goods and services provided to Kansas? I wondered. $331.7 billion.
By contrast, those of us here in Massachusetts (where I reside) paid in $1.065 trillion and got back $917.9 billion over that same period. So some of my tax money has been going to you. Borrowing from Paul to pay Barbara, you could say.
It may surprise you to learn that this does not upset me. In fact, it conforms to my understanding of how the U.S. is supposed to work. You and I vote for people to represent us in "the government." We delegate to them the responsibility for making rules and enforcing them, for keeping us together — no easy task — as a functioning society.
Some of us pay more; some, less. An imperfect system, to be sure, filled with details that annoy some people, infuriate others. But you would agree, wouldn't you, that humankind has been hard-pressed, historically, to come up with anything better?
I guess there is a fundamental unfairness: you in Kansas have less than half the number of Americans living there than we do here in Massachusetts, yet you have the same number of senators. But that's part of a compromise on which the country was established — an attempt to make sure that minorities like Kansans were protected from the potential tyranny of a central government.
So I have, as you can see, considered your correction. But I don't buy it. In fact — and I don't mean to sound hostile here or defensive — I consider it something of a slight, not so much to me, but to the very concept of American democracy.

Sometimes my attempts to be loose result in lower standards. Someimes i will mindlessly make a stroke and not realize it.
SHould i always be objective everytime i put down a stroke?
I look at art thats really clean.. Where they have messy sketching but its cleaner than mine and wonder what is up with that.
This may sound like a silly question but its really important to me. I don't want to be messy. I've always had messy handwriting and wonder if it has something to do with that. Think it is lazyness?Similar Threads

- Art: the sneeze (messy)
My vote is for OK.
Sketch as messy as you need to to solve problems.
Drawing, that's another issue! Especially if the drawing is to be the final work itself or the framework for a painting.
From some of the stuff I've looked at in books, the classic animators worked pretty rough in developing their forms. But, that stuff all got cleaned up into neat stylized line work.
Messy is perfectly fine. You seem to have a style in mind, so for you, I would say it would be important to start off loose like you're doing (it's how artists are typically trained to start off if you ask me) and get tighter as you go along.

Sketching is your thinking tool, it's OK if you don't get every line right. You can always clean it up or alter it later, on a separate page.

Worse comes to worst you can always say (in a snooty accent) that it's your style "and it captivates the vibrancy and chaos of life."
I would guess it's because they know what they are doing and have experience doing it. When you know what you are doing, sketching loosely is more like.. searching for or sculpting the drawing out, (same goes for inking messy and loose sketches) but when you don't know what you're doing you just put lines on the paper, hoping you hit the target, making it messy. Or something. Though I'd like to see an example of this sort of "messy but clean" art.
"I eat comics and poop stylization"
♞Sketchbook (Critiques, no compliments please.)
He probably means something like this:
I think you'd like to see some paintings by Giacomo Favretto. His painting style is free and textural, but the values and colors are always well balanced and it's all structured by a thoroughly composed, tight drawing. He also painted extremely tight early in his career.
Old Sketchbook
I was kinda wondering this. Like I notice some painters do this in PS when making a scene. Like Justin Sweet in the Centaur Gnomon DVD was incredibly sketchy and I couldn't even make out what he was doing until he began painting over it. I kinda like that...loose with control. Like you can be tight when you want but mostly loose. I donno. I might try to adapt to that style when I get a bit better.
Having a messy start during the sketching process is fine. Artists at times start with one big idea and then eventually work on furnishing a specific concept.

Just because something looks messy, doesn't mean it was careless. (though sometimes it is)
'messy' sketching is not only okay, it is essential.
I believe it's mostly matter of artist's temperament. Some prefer to watch for every step while other try to go with the flow more. One of my favourite comic artist - Grzegorz Rosinski has very messy process for making illustration but I believe he use it to his advantage. He can push the paint around in such a way that the picture reaches finish in quite refined state but there's also nice organic texture left to make it more alive.
You can see him oil painting in this 20 minute video (previously planning on smaller format). Final can be seen here HERE.
Years of being told to "loosen up" and praised for it lead to me being too messy. I now struggle to draw precisely.
My messy impulsive works has character that my precise drawing lacks, but the messy lacks any information, are full of meaningless marks and have no consideration for anything.
One thing I've noticed is that people who draw ever so precisely can often get bogged down in the fine detials and the overall image suffers - usually in distorted form. Being messy prevents you from doing this, and yet I've noticed with my own sketching that when it comes to working into the image, the messyness hid the fact that I hadn't filled in enough information on certain forms. Turning a messy drawing into linework is a nightmare for me, and it ends up looking so static.
There is a balance, and I'm finding it impossible to reach. Those who can make well considered and precise work look effortless and full of life are doing it right. I think it's also easy on both sides to use precise drawing, or messy drawing, to hide flaws in the work.
In short, as long as it's not causing you problems elsewhere, of course it's perfectly fine. If it is, like with me, it's not... and needs addressiing.

True progress means matching the world to the vision in our heads.
But we always change the vision instead.
I'd replace the word 'messy' with 'loose' and underline how being 'loose' never is synonymous with 'careless'. As Richard Schmid said; "Looseness should describe how a painting looks, not how it's done". You can't really expect to make a sophisticated drawing by putting less effort into it.
Old Sketchbook
Who did the drawing that Jie posted/image in post #7?
I remember one time going to the National Gallery of Canada, and they had a small exhibit of Renoir's sketches.
Every one of them seemed to be on something like an A4 size or something, and they were all loose and "messy", same as anyone else's rough stuff. Quick, often half-finished, partly construction, partly detailed, just incredibly familiar. And hey, if it's good enough for Renoir, then I figure it's good enough for me too.

"Skill is the result of trying again and again, applying our ability and proving our knowledge as we gain it. Let us get used to throwing away the unsuccessful effort and doing the job over. Let us consider obstacles as something to be expected in any endeavor; then they won't seem quite so insurmountable or so defeating." - Andrew Loomis
That would be Feng Guo. His CGHub account is here.
messy sketching is fine, but it all comes down to your intent. style should come secondary to function. if your design needs to provide concise information then it usually must be refined so that a character artist can determine exactly whats going on.
Messy sketching can be a very nice and quick way of producing concepts with ease and agility. But i think that alot of times there are short cuts in drawing this way that show up as glaring issues when ever you get to the modeling or reproduction phase.
But if you are most going to paint then its the way to go, i think alot of painters have a sloppy drawing style since its mostly a preparatory step for painters and not usually an ends itself.
messy is ok for sketching and setting the guideline. Then it's time to refine drawing

Motorola Droid — when can get the 2.2to my stone
created on Feb 20, 2011 5:33:33 PM (via AndroidPIT app)
created on Feb 20, 2011 6:00:49 PM
It looks like the 2.2 Froyo update for the Milestone has been delayed based on the latest news coming from Motorola. It's questionable whether it's coming to come out at all and it depends on the specific region. In the meantime, I can only suggest rooting your phone and installing a custom ROM version of 2.2.
Here are some instructions I found for it: http://www.dkszone.net/install-android-2.2.1-froyo-motorola-milestone-xt720-upgrade There might be some better ones out there. |

Prep Time Key for Eagle 7s |
Sevens - USA Sevens Men |
They left New Zealand a day earlier than every other team, except South Africa, and, said Head Coach Alex Magleby, they were happy to be home. And happy to be where they had a lot of fans. The Parade of Nations on Fremont Street was, said Magleby, energizing. The players also not only visited a school as part of the adopt-a-country program the USA 7s tournament runs, they visited another as the adopted team couldn't make it. "I think it's really good for the boys to get out and see who they're playing for," said Magleby. "I was really impressed with the kids. They're really articulate, so something's going right. And then one of our guys had to stand up and speak, and that's part of their development, too. It was good." Getting to the USA early was "the exact opposite of Wellington," said Magleby, who was laid out sick for a day after the team arrived. "But we were here before everyone else." Preparation will be important for the Eagles in the next few days, too. "The guys are really excited about playing in front of the home crowd," Magleby said. "We could make it into a long day." The USA plays late, 6:30pm and then the final game of Friday at 9:30. Magleby said the team will stay away from the stadium for a while to stay rested and be ready to play in the evening. "It's like Friday night football," enthused the coach. "What's more American than that?" |

YOUR WASHINGTON AND YOU! A WEEKLY REPORT from KARL MUNDT SENATOR FROM SOUTH DAKOTA "FOR A FAIR CHANCE FOR A FREE PEOPLE" VOLUME XVIII (1956) NUMBER 23 - FOR RELEASE JUNE 13 OR AFTER AID FOR YOUNG FARMERS. All U.S. farmers--but especially the younger farm families--will benefit greatly by Senate Agriculture Farm Credit Subcommittee action taken last week. This Subcommittee, of which I am a member, boosted FHA Farm Credit funds from $15 to $50 million per year and extended the program for two more years. These funds should become available shortly after mid-June to help many farmers in need of credit so they can expand farm operations to boost farm income. ###A FRIEND IS PROMOTED. Presidential Assistant Fred Seaton of Hastings, Nebraska has been a long-time friend of South Dakota in past years. He spends summer vacations at his Black Hills cabin in Spearfish Canyon, and is owner of two Hills newspapers, the Lead Daily Call and the Deadwood Pioneer-Times. On his nomination as the new U.S. Secretary of Interior to succeed Douglas McKay, I wrote him personal congratulations and added: "l am confident that you will have no difficulty being confirmed by the Senate and I am highly gratified that an old friend, a real Westerner, and a man whom we can almost call a "fellow South Dakotan" because of your interests in our State, has been nominated as Secretary of the Interior." ### RIVER PROJECT PROGRESS. Bureau of Reclamation Commissioner Wilbur A. Dexheimer told me at a recent Senate Hearing that $20,000 is budgeted for studies of the Bad River project next year. The White River study is slated for completion next year and he said funds are being provided to continue operations of the Shadehill Development Farm on the Grand River. ### "WHAT'S HAPPENING TO THE FARMERS' SHARE OF THE AMERICAN FOOD DOLLAR?" (see other side) FROM S.D. TO SCANDINAVIA. Mr. and Mrs. Aubrey Sherwood of DeSmet, S.D., stopped in for a conference with me before they left for Europe where the DeSmet News editor is the only U.S. representative in a group of eight foreign newsmen who are on a two-week tour to evaluate NATO military defenses in Denmark--and Norway. They are traveling under terms of the Smith- Mundt Act, so I was pleased to nominate Mr. Sherwood--a well respected member of South Dakota's newspaper fraternity--when I was given the opportunity to select the U.S. representative for this trip. ### A VISIT WITH A PRINCESS. America's dairy industry received official Congressional recognition when Ruth Marie Peterson, a 20-year-old Austin, Minn, farm girl, visited Capitol Hill as the "American Dairy Princess". I was pleased to join my colleague, Senator Ed Thye, Republican of Minnesota, in welcoming her to Congress. Her visit helped advertise that "June is Dairy Month" when we should all make an extra effort to use dairy products. It is interesting to note that the "Princess" has just returned from an appearance at the American Exhibit in the International Trade Fair at Osaka, Japan. The "Nippon Times" reported that: "The accent throughout the agricultural section was on a simple thought--that the grain and dairy products the U.S. is selling, loaning, or giving away are, in a phrase, 'good' for you. In the heat of criticism over the American surplus agricultural program, the notion that these surplus products can make people in food-deficit areas healthier is all too often forgotten." This last comment from the Japanese newspaper is very significant. I HAVE LONG MAINTAINED THERE IS NO TRUE FARM SURPLUS WHILE MILLIONS IN THE WORLD HAVE INADEQUATE DIETS!. It has been a problem to get foreigners convinced our products are good to eat! Through Exhibits at eight Foreign Fairs, our Agriculture Department is doing a wonderful job in selling the idea of using our farm products. ### FIRST REPORT ABOUT OAHE. Sometime this summer South Dakotans will get the first official Bureau of Reclamation report on irrigation possibilities from Oahe Dam. Surveys are nearly complete for this preliminary "information report" on the complex plan to irrigate 615,000 acres in eastern South Dakota, with generation of 800,000-kw of electricity as a by-product. Bureau Commissioner Dexheimer told me at a Senate Hearing this will be only an information report, but that "we expect to have the final feasibility report out in 1960." He said the report this summer will give South Dakotans "a large part of the information and point up the requirements for the rest of the work that needs to be done." He added that South Dakotans thereafter will "have a much better understanding of the over-all problem and the work that needs to be done before we can arrive at feasibility." I know that East River residents are curious to know just how the Reclamation Surveys are coming along, so I told Commissioner Dexheimer to try and get this Report out as soon as possible. Our Senate Committee voted him the necessary funds.

As the all-terrain experts, Land Rover have gone 'above and beyond' in testing and development to ensure that the right tyre is provided for maximum traction.
Tyres have an 'all season capability', whilst specific tyres have a balance of attributes that may affect their performance in certain circumstances. The size of the wheel and tyre chosen also has a bearing on the vehicle's performance. Please bear in mind the intended usage of the vehicle when choosing wheel and tyre combinations.
Fine materials, contemporary, streamlined design and craftsmanship form the Range Rover's interior. Supple, hand-finished leathers complement real wood veneers and chrome instruments.
