[JURIST] The Russian delegation to the Extraordinary Conference of the States Parties to the CFE Treaty [official website] in Vienna expressed displeasure at the close of talks Friday and repeated calls for the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) [official website] to ratify the 1999 revision [text] of the Conventional Forces in Europe (CFE) treaty, insisting that the original 1990 CFE treaty [text] is outdated. Russia called for the four-day talks, but without being able to reach an agreement, its delegation chief said that Russia could simply halt its participation in the accord. NATO, calling the CFE treaty a "cornerstone of security and stability in Europe", expressed regret that an agreement was not reached [press release], and urged Russia to continue engaging in discussions. The chairman of the Organization for Security and Co-operation in Europe (OSCE) [official website], who hosted the conference, called on parties to resolve their differences [press release], and reminded them that such treaties help establish a climate of security and mutual trust.Last week Russia Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov said that the country would not raise the issue of withdrawing [JURIST report] from the treaty at the Vienna conference. Many NATO countries are against ratifying the 1999 treaty because of Russia's continued basing of troops in Moldova and Georgia, which Russia claims is an unrelated issue. AP has more.

[JURIST] Following a Friday meeting [press release, in Polish] with French President Nicolas Sarkozy, Polish Prime Minister Jaroslaw Kaczynski [official websites] told the Polish daily newspaper Dziennik [media website] he was optimistic that a compromise on a controversial voting system for the European constitution [JURIST news archive] could be reached, although he later said it was too early to give details. His brother, Polish President Lech Kaczynski [official website], will meet with German Chancellor Angela Merkel [official website] this weekend, but Polish officials have said there would be no chance of a breakthrough this soon. Many EU states are hoping that progress can be made towards resolving the impasse in EU constitution negotiations at a summit in Brussels next Thursday, but yesterday Merkel expressed doubts [JURIST report] about what could actually be accomplished at the meeting. On Wednesday, Prime Minister Kaczynski indicated that unless negotiations on the voting system were left open, they would not agree [JURIST report] to any proposed treaty.Poland has rejected the "double majority voting system" found in the 2004 draft constitution [text], which is supported by 25 member states, because that system diminishes Poland voting power compared to the 2000 Treaty of Nice [text]. Despite Poland's concerns, a recent German report noting key stumbling blocks on EU constitutional reforms made no mention [Reuters report] of the voting system. Reuters has more.
[JURIST] Seven men [BBC backgrounder] who conspired with British al Qaeda leader Dhiren Barot [BBC profile; JURIST news archive] to launch attacks in Britain and the US were sentenced to a combined 136 years in prison [London Metropolitan Police press release] Friday in London's Woolwich Crown Court. The shortest sentence handed down was 15 years imprisonment, while the longest was 26 years. Six of the men had pleaded guilty, while the seventh denied the charges, but was found guilty after an investigation by the Metropolitan Police Service Counter Terrorism Command [official website]. The seven men carried out research and contributed to planning terrorist attacks, including setting off a radioactive "dirty bomb."Barot pleaded guilty last year [JURIST report] for his role, and as ringleader was given a 40 year to life sentence [press release; JURIST report]. The sentence was reduced to 30 years [JURIST report] last month when the appellate court ruled that Barot's conspiracy did not amount to an actual attempt. Reuters has more. BBC News has additional coverage.
[JURIST] Colombia's Congress approved legislation giving same-sex couples who have cohabited for over a period of two years similar rights as regular common law marriages Thursday, which will guarantee equal rights in areas such as welfare benefits and property inheritance. The measure, opposed by the Roman Catholic church but supported by Colombian President Alvaro Uribe [official website in Spanish; BBC profile], will not allow same-sex marriage [JURIST news archive] or allow same-sex couples to adopt children.In February, the Constitutional Court of Colombia [official website] invalidated [summary; JURIST report] a 1990 law creating a presumption that property held by "a man and a woman" who lived together in de facto marriage for at least two years was held in common. Judge Rodringo Escobar Gil wrote that the law went "against the constitutional principles of respect for human dignity, [and] the state's duty to protect all persons equally and the fundamental right to freely develop one's personality." Reuters has more.
[JURIST] Rights complaints by Muslims in the US rose 25 percent in 2006, according to an annual report on civil rights [PDF text; press release] released Thursday by the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) [advocacy website]. The group attributed the jump to a rise in anti-Muslim bias, particularly seen in cases involving delays in immigration proceedings. The majority of reported complaints came against government agencies such as the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and the Department of Justice [official websites]. The 890 complaints filed against federal agencies in 2006 more than doubled the 2005 value of 380 complaints. Hate crime complaints rose by over 9 percent between 2005 and 2006, but declined as a percentage of all complaints. Such filings involved physical attacks against individuals and mosques because of religious preference. Incidents of anti-Muslim bias rose 2005 [JURIST report] as well, according to CAIR.The study offered several recommendations to reduce instances of reported discrimination, including increasing outreach and education efforts by Muslims, and seeking government assistance in tackling the rising levels of Islamophobia in the US. The group also urged that the process of obtaining citizenship be expedited, citing the recent resolution of a five year delay [CAIR press release] of a Chicago Muslim in obtaining citizenship. The applicant passed the citizenship exam in 2002, and took part in repeated interviews, however his application was delayed for several years due to a pending DHS background check. CAIR is currently involved in a class action lawsuit against DHS, seeking the establishment of a limit on the amount of time such background checks can take. Reuters has more.
[JURIST] The Federal Security Service of the Russian Federation (FSB) [official website, in Russian] Friday announced it is investigating allegations made by Russian businessman Andrei Lugovoy [JURIST news archive] that the deceased former KGB agent Alexander Litvinenko [BBC profile; BBC timeline] and alleged coup plotter Boris Berezovsky [JURIST news archive] spied for Great Britain. Lugovoy, who is currently sought by Britain's Crown Prosecution Service (CRS) [official website] for the polonium poisoning death of Litvinenko, made the allegations on May 31, saying that the British Secret Intelligence Service (SIS) had attempted to recruit him through Litvinenko and accused Berezovsky of also working for the SIS. Berezovsky has denied the allegations, dismissing them as an attempt to deflect attention away from Lugovoy's legal troubles.On May 30, the Russian Office of the Prosecutor-General [official website, in Russian] dismissed suggestions [JURIST report] made by a Russian lawmaker that Lugovoy could be extradited to the UK in exchange for Berezovsky. Russian authorities have insisted that the Russian constitution forbids the extradition of its citizens [MFA statement] for alleged crimes committed abroad. Berezovsky, a billionaire currently residing in the UK on asylum [JURIST report], has been charged in Russia with attempting to plot a coup against Russian President Vladimir Putin. AP has more.
[JURIST] The US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) [official website; JURIST news archive] said Thursday that it has filed suit [SEC complaint, PDF; press release] against the heads of a technology company and two lawyers who assisted the company in an illegal "pump and dump" penny stock scheme. Arizona lawyer David Stocker and Texas lawyer Phillip Offill Jr, the latter a former SEC enforcement officer, are alleged to have assisted Michigan-based AVL Global [press release archive] in issuing millions of shares of stock, promoting the company without disclosing the fact that it was was all but defunct. Most of the stock was purchased by Peter Fisher, father of AVL president N. Tyler Fisher, who sold it to the market, costing investors at least $160,000. The allegations filed in the Eastern District of Michigan [official website] claim the participants in the scheme violated numerous laws, including federal security and antifraud provisions. The SEC seeks injunctive relief, reclamation of the illegally obtained funds, and punitive damages. N. Tyler Fisher settled the civil case against him, paying a $25,000 penalty and agreeing to refrain from overseeing public companies or participating in penny stock offerings for the next five years. The suit against Stocker and Offill marks the first time where the SEC is seeking damages from those who execute the legal logistics of such schemes without actually selling stock. The New York Times has more.
[JURIST] Japanese district courts in Kochi and Sapporo Friday rejected the claims of two groups of Japanese abandoned in China as children [Kyoto Journal backgrounder] after World War II, ruling that the current Japanese government was not obligated to compensate the so-called "war orphans" [JURIST news archive] because Japan had no obligation to to assist their repatriation and assimilation back in Japan. The "war orphans," whose parents had been settled in China as a part of Japanese wartime policy, had sought approximately $267,000 per person in compensation.To date, only 61 of the approximately 2,200 individuals who have filed similar suits have won compensation from the Japanese government. The 61 plaintiffs who filed their suit in Kobe each received approximately $62,000 in compensation [JURIST report]. Approximately 320,000 Japanese citizens were settled in Manchuria to establish a base of operations for Japan's 1937 invasion of China [Wikipedia backgrounder]. Many Japanese settlers were left behind after the war, however, and many children were raised by Chinese citizens. Many plaintiffs remained in China until 1975 when the government began locating them, did not speak Japanese and were shunned by surviving relatives, and most continue to rely on public aid as a result of the relocation. AP has more.
[JURIST] The US military announced Thursday that charges [Central Command press release; JURIST report] against Lt. Col. William H. Steele, the former commander of the 451st Military Police Detachment in charge of the detention facility at Camp Cropper [Wikipedia backgrounder] in Iraq, has been referred to a court-martial on charges of aiding the enemy, unauthorized possession of classified information, disobeying orders, and various counts of conduct unbecoming an officer, including having an improper relationship with an interpreter between October 2005 and February 2007. He also faces charges of possessing pornographic videos contrary to a general order. Military officials say that if convicted of aiding the enemy, the maximum sentence Steele could face would be life imprisonment. Steele has been in military custody since his arrest in Kuwait in March. Camp Cropper, located near Baghdad International Airport, is the second-largest US-run military prison [WP report] in Iraq after Camp Bucca in the wake of the closing of the notorious Abu Ghraib [JURIST news archive] prison which the US emptied [JURIST report] and transferred to the Iraqi government in 2006. Cropper currently has some 3000 inmates. Reuters has more. AP has additional coverage.
[JURIST] The US Department of Justice Office of Inspector General (OIG) and Office of Professional Responsibility (OPR) [official websites] confirmed in a letter [PDF text] to the Senate Judiciary Committee Thursday that an ongoing DOJ internal investigation into politicized hiring decisions [JURIST report] has expanded to include an alleged March meeting between former US DOJ aide Monica Goodling and Attorney General Alberto Gonzales [JURIST news archives] in which Gonzales supposedly "recounted to [Goodling] his recollections of the process leading up to and including" the controversial firing of at least eight US Attorneys [JURIST news archive]. The incident, which first surfaced during Goodling's May 23 testimony before the House Judiciary Committee, contradicts statements [JURIST report] made by Gonzales before the Senate Judiciary Committee in April, during which Gonzales claims to not having "talked to witnesses" in the DOJ because he did not want to "interfere" with the Senate Judiciary Committee or the DOJ's investigations. DOJ spokesperson Brian Roehrkasse confirmed that the meeting occurred, but characterized Gonzales' statements as efforts to "comfort" Goodling during a "very difficult period of her life." Goodling also admitted during her testimony that she improperly considering applicants based on politics [JURIST report], and said that at least one US Attorney was fired to open a spot for a protege of Karl Rove. On Monday, Republican senators successfully blocked a no-confidence vote against Gonzales [JURIST report]. The New York Times has more.
[JURIST] The US Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit ruled [opinion, PDF] Thursday that Javaid Iqbal, who alleges he was detained "solely because of [his] race, religion, and national origin" following the September 11 terrorist attacks [JURIST news archive] and subjected to mistreatment during detention, can proceed with civil lawsuits against former Attorney General John Ashcroft, FBI Director Robert Mueller, and other government officials. The court, while recognizing the "gravity of the situation [that government officials faced" as a consequence of the 9/11 attack," nevertheless held that constitutional rights, such as "the right not to be subjected to needlessly harsh conditions of confinement, the right to be free from the use of excessive force, and the right not to be subjected to ethnic or religious discrimination" must enjoy "steadfast protection" in both "normal" and "unusual times." The court rejected arguments presented by government officials that they could not be held personally liable because they had acted reasonably and therefore shielded by qualified immunity. Approximately 762 foreign nationals, mainly Arab Muslim men [ACLU backgrounder], were arrested across the US after the September 11 attacks. Iqbal, and another former detainee and co-petitioner, Ehab Elmanghraby, were among 184 individuals held in maximum-security detention. Iqbal alleges he was held in solitary confinement for more than 150 days without judicial hearing. Elmanghraby has settled [JURIST report] his complaint against the government for $300,000. AP has more. Reuters has additional coverage.
[JURIST] A five-member team of UN investigators concluded in a confidential report to the UN Security Council disclosed Thursday by the New York Times that former Liberian President Charles Taylor [BBC profile; JURIST news archive] may retain control over large sums of personal assets located in Nigeria and Liberia. Taylor claims he is indigent, and refused to participate in the start of proceedings against him [JURIST] last Monday at the Special Court for Sierra Leone (SCSL) [official website] because he was unable to retain his preferred lawyer. The panel's report says that Taylor obtains approximately $100 million annually from his control of diamond and timber resources, although it could not provide more details concerning the current status of Taylor's assets. The Nigerian government has refused to allow an investigation of Taylor's Nigerian assets, and neither Nigeria or Liberia has frozen Taylor's assets pursuant to Security Council Resolution 1532 [PDF text; backgrounder]. Taylor has also alleged that his single court-appointed defense lawyer, Karim Khan, is unfairly outnumbered by the court's prosecution team. Taylor attempted to fire Khan Monday, although a SCSL spokesperson says Taylor does not have the authority. The SCSL subsequently announced the addition of a second defense lawyer to Taylor's legal team, which currently consists of one lawyer, two legal assistants and two researchers. On Tuesday, SCSL chief prosecutor Stephen Rapp said that Taylor's trial will continue [JURIST report] as scheduled despite Taylor's boycott. Last Friday, SCSL President Justice George Gelaga-King urged [press release, PDF] the international community to provide more financial support for the SCSL, warning that "all available funds will be exhausted by November 2007." The SCSL estimates it will require a total of $89 million to complete its mandate in the next three years. In May, Human Rights Watch (HRW) [advocacy website] and Rapp issued similar pleas for voluntary financial contribution [JURIST report]. The current leading donors for the court are the United States, the Netherlands, Britain, and Canada. The New York Times has more.
[JURIST] A federal jury convicted former Ku Klux Klan (KKK) [JURIST news archive] member James Ford Seale [Wikipedia profile] Thursday of two counts of kidnapping resulting in death and one count conspiracy for Seale's role in the kidnapping and death of two 19-year old teens in Mississippi in 1964. Seale, who was previously arrested on suspicion of kidnapping Henry Dee and Charles Moore, later found dead in the Mississippi River, was released in 1964 due to a lack of evidence. Federal prosecutors revived the case, largely relying on the testimony of Charles Marcus Edwards, a former fellow KKK member who received immunity from prosecution in exchange for his testimony. Seale, now 71 years old, faces a maximum sentence of life in prison at his sentencing, which is scheduled on August 24. The Seale case is one of several recently re-opened civil rights-era cases [US News backgrounder]. Authorities reopened Seale's case following the 2005 conviction of Edgar Ray Killen [JURIST report] for the 1964 deaths of three civil rights activists. AP has more.
[JURIST] A Russian military court convicted four army soldiers in the January 2002 killing of six Chechen civilians [Amnesty backgrounder] Thursday, sentencing them to between 14 and 9 years in prison. The four defendants, three of which remain fugitives and were tried in absentia, had previously been tried and acquitted [JURIST report], but the Russian Supreme Court overturned their second acquittal [JURIST report] in August 2005 citing criminal procedure violations. Russian news agency Itar-Tass reported that Chechen President Ramzan Kadyrov described the conviction as a "just decision." The soldiers initially fired upon the vehicle carrying the six civilians when the vehicle missed a checkpoint and killing an passenger, but subsequently also killed the survivors in the vehicle. The soldiers allege that they were ordered to execute the survivors to cover up the incident. In March, the Council of Europe's European Committee for the Prevention of Torture and Inhuman or Degrading Treatment or Punishment (CPT) [official website] called on Russia to deal with allegations of torture and abuse in Chechnya [BBC backgrounder; JURIST news archive], where militants have fought for independence from Moscow for over a decade since the collapse of the Soviet Union. Reuters has more.
[JURIST] A top US Justice Department official testified Thursday that the Bush Administration remains opposed to a proposed shield law [text; HR 2102 materials] that would protect media from federal pressure to reveal sources. Assistant Attorney General Rachel Brand testified [prepared statement, PDF] during a House Judiciary Committee hearing [HJC materials; recorded video] that the DOJ has a "longstanding commitment to striking a balance between the public's interest in the free dissemination of ideas and information and the public's interest in effective law enforcement and the fair administration of justice" and that "the protections currently provided by the law and by the Department's own internal policies have been and continue to be effective in striking an appropriate balance between these two important interests." Brand said the proposed Free Flow of Information Act "would upset that balance, with serious and harmful affects":
It would summarily scrap a system that has successfully balanced the competing interests of law enforcement and the free flow of information only to replace it with one that, at best, will yield uncertain results at a time when the nation can ill afford it. And it does so without any hard evidence that the public's interest in the free flow of information is in any way being harmed or impaired by the efforts of law enforcement to investigate and prosecute crime.The Department recognizes that there are legitimate competing interests at stake when the newsgathering process and the criminal justice system intersect. But history has demonstrated that the protections already in place, including the Department's own rigorous internal review of media subpoena requests, are sufficient and strike the appropriate balance between the free dissemination of information and effective law enforcement.
[JURIST] US Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-NE) and Senate Republican Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) [official websites] said in a joint statement [text] Thursday that senators will return to the stalled Comprehensive Immigration Reform Act of 2007 [S 1348 summary; JURIST report] after they finish work on an energy bill. President Bush has pressed the immigration proposal, which stalled after failing a cloture vote [JURIST report] last Thursday, saying [statement] Tuesday that he believed it would be "harder to enforce the border" if the bill fails to become law. Senators have floated a plan to Reid and McConnell, which would give Republicans and Democrats 10-12 chances to amend the bill, after which senators will initiate a cloture vote.Last Wednesday, the Senate approved a five-year limit [JURIST report] on a proposed Y-1 temporary guest worker visa program, which critics say allowed too many foreign laborers to compete with domestic workers and drove down wages. The proposal had received bipartisan criticism [JURIST report] for being too broad. Supporters say that without temporary guest worker programs, illegal immigration [JURIST news archive] will continue as foreign laborers will still be attracted to the unmet labor demand. In May, senators trimmed the proposed temporary guest worker program [JURIST report] from its previous maximum limit of 600,000 guest workers a year to 200,000. Opponents of the immigration reform bill say it amounts to "amnesty" for up to 12 million undocumented immigrants currently in the United States, and others have objected to restrictions on the right of legal immigrants to bring their families to the US.

Former Cahokia High School head coach and Belleville West assistant Gene Muzzarelli is in a class of 15 that will be inducted into the Illinois High School Football Coaches' Association Hall of Fame.
The ceremony will be held at noon Saturday at the Hilton Garden Inn in Champaign, with University of Illinois football coach Tim Beckman serving as the guest speaker.
"It really is (a thrill)," Muzzarelli said Wednesday afternoon in a telephone interview from his longtime home in Morton. "It's getting close. I'm getting more anxious all the time.
"I received my letter about the induction around Christmas. I had just had some surgery. My wife (Lura) opened the letter and gave it to me. I looked at it and said, 'What's this all about?' So I read it again and it hit me what it all was about. To be honest, I got a real pit in my stomach. It's quite an honor."
Muzzarelli, 79, coached at Cahokia in 1967 and 1968, leading the Comanches to a 13-6-2 record. He was the offensive line coach at West from 1969-71, spending the first season under Bob Samples and the next two under the late Bruce Arnold.
"Those were really great times for me," Muzzarelli said. "The people that I met down there (were great). There were a lot of great coaches, a lot of great players. My affiliations with all of them were wonderful."
Samples remembers his Maroons being overwhelmed by the Comanches in a muddy regular-season game in 1968 in Cahokia.
Samples said the Comanches had a fullback, Mike McGuire, who ran wild on the Maroons, and he credited Cahokia's offensive line. Samples was extremely pleased that Muzzarelli opted to leave Cahokia and coach West's offensive line.
"We really had a good team and they just beat the heck out of us," Samples said. "They had that big fullback and we just couldn't stop him in that rain and mud and so forth.
"The next year, I lost my offensive line coach, so I called up 'Muzz.' At that time, I think Belleville's salary schedule was a little higher than Cahokia's. But for whatever reason, I talked him into coming and being on my staff and taking over the responsibility of the offensive line. He came over and he was wonderful."
While it's unusual for a head coach to leave a program to be an assistant, Muzzarelli said the pay raise was significant.
"The salary was better, for one thing, at West," Muzzarelli said. "And I got to teach driver's ed in the summer, which was complementary. I think I moved because I needed to make a change. A lot of people have asked me that same question: 'Why did you go from a head coach to an assistant?'
"But I never felt that way. I just enjoyed coaching football. That had no bearing on it. I don't feel that it was secondary that I went to Belleville West and became an assistant there. We had an outstanding staff of coaches."
Samples said Muzzarelli had tremendous camaraderie with the offensive linemen.
"The kids really liked him," he said. "They would do anything for him. They bought into his system."
Muzzarelli, a 1951 graduate of Farmington High and a 1955 graduate of the University of Illinois, left Belleville for good in 1972 to become the head coach at Morton High, where he was 56-35-1 in 10 seasons, with three conference championships.
"When we came to Morton, Morton hadn't been too successful," Muzzarelli said. "My first year here, we took our lumps; we only won a couple of ballgames. Our second year was the best season they had (enjoyed) in 16 years. I think we won seven that year, and then the next year we went undefeated (in the regular season).
"Our kids got better. The kids came out and I had some real outstanding football players here, too."
Muzzarelli finished his coaching career at Eureka College, again working with the offensive line. He was a physical education instructor at Morton until he retired in 1993.
Muzzarelli and Lura, who have three children, six grandchildren and two great-grandchildren, will celebrate 58 years of marriage in June.
"I don't know what I would do without her," Muzzarelli said.

I wanted to like this product. I have very oily skin & scalp and need an afternoon pick-me-up that's quick (besides re-wetting and blow drying)
and I had high hopes for this, but it just creates tangles, gnarls, knots and overall stickiness. I want my money back on this one for sure. returns are complicated, but this is sooooo not worth it.

Just keep clicking for our top combinations (modeled by our editors!). — Additional reporting by Leah Melby What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 These bold blue Stella McCartney cat-eye shades ($225) feel so summery. Go all the way by pairing them with a nearly neon lipstick like Illamasqua in Immodest ($28). 1 / 12 What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 These chic and subtle Chanel sunglasses ($650) are even classier when you notice there's a rim of pearls placed behind the upper frame. For such a timeless look, Sonia Kashuk's Red Orange lip color ($10) is the way to go. 2 / 12 What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 There's absolutely nothing subtle about these black-and-white Nasty Gal frames ($40). A nude lip would be too demure, but a hot pink or bold red might feel too over-the-top. Meet in the middle with a matte coral like Givenchy Le Rouge in Croisière Coral ($36). 3 / 12 What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 Big frames don't have to be overwhelming.

We amped up the bold look with Bite Lipstick in Coral ($34). 7 / 12 What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 If round frames never look quite right on you, then try a relaxed rectangle like Warby Parker's Thatcher in Walnut Tortoise ($95). The neutral palette calls for a nude lip, so we went with By Terry Sheer Rouge in Nudissimo ($35). 8 / 12 What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 Retro round frames in a camel shade, like on this Burberry pair ($200), go best with a classic lipstick. We coupled the chic style with Chanel Rouge Coco in Amant ($34). 9 / 12 What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 The wayfarer ($175) gets done over time and time again, and Tory Burch updated the silhouette with a bright orange print. Not to compete with the graphic frames, we paired them with Too Faced La Creme Color Drenched Lip Cream in Juicy Melons ($21), a soft-coral lipstick. 11 / 12 What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 We're all about mirrored sunglasses, especially with cool clear legs and frames like on the latest release ($180) from celeb-favorite Westward Leaning. The blue in the reflective lenses looks best with a contrasting lip color like MAC Neon Orange lipstick ($15). 11 / 12 What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 If trendy frames aren't quite your thing, then wire rims like on this DKNY pair ($99) are a timeless choice. The rosy, satiny Nars Lipstick in Tolede ($26) is just as classic. 12 / 12 2 1 9 5 0 Back to Homepage Read More Summer BeautyLipstickSunglasses summer beauty New to Self-Tanning? 10 Application Tips You Need to Know 1 day ago 10 Best Bronzers Under $10 1 week ago Pin This: The 5-Step Side Braid 2 weeks ago The Effortlessly Chic Side Braid That's Perfect For Hats 1/05 Don't Spend Your Beach Vacation With Burns — Apply SPF Right 12/23/13 Hugh Jackman Reveals Skin Cancer Scare, Encourages Safety 11/21/13 Get a Personalized Fashion & Beauty Newsletter!

Northern Exposure Reunion Show
We the loyal fans of Northern Exposure, seek to have this show given theopportunity for another run on prime time television or a reunion show. I have spoken to some of the Actors and they are in agreement that its time. John Falsey and his partner along with the actors and writers wereingenious!

We all continue to join the many groups on Facebook whose soul purpose is to continue Northern Exposure. But now, the time has come to bring it back we ask humbly and politely.
Kimberly Howe

For Wheels
Wayne G. writes by e-mail: "I have been enjoying the articles Saturdays in the Dayton Daily News. I am having a few problems with my 1997 S-10 4 cylinder, with a 5-speed manual transmission. The truck sat idle for about a year and I have been using it again regularly for the past two months. I changed the fuel filter a few years ago but I think the fuel pump is the original. The car has about 150,000 miles and the timing belt was changed at about 100,000. With rising gas prices it is a valuable truck to keep running. Below is a description of the problem(s).
The truck is getting harder and harder to start after it has been sitting. The problem feels to be a fuel-related issue, not electrical. Sometimes after it is started and you take off, it hiccups a few times like its being starved of fuel. If you get it started and drive it somewhere and are only gone a short while, it will start right up. Also, sometimes when cruising at highway speed, the truck will hesitate and you have to release the accelerator pedal for it to start running okay again. Other times it runs like a scalded dog. Do you have any ideas?"
Halderman: From your description of the problem, it does appear to be a fuel-supply problem. Being about 15 years old and having 150,000 miles on the truck, I am surprised that the electric fuel pump inside the gas tank has lived this long. Your symptoms match that of a weak fuel pump. The fuel system on this truck does not have a Schrader valve so checking fuel pump pressure is difficult. Instead of paying a professional to check fuel pressure and volume output, I think it would be wise to just go ahead and have the fuel pump replaced. These are a pattern failure item on your truck. The problem could be the rubber fuel line connecting the pump to the sender unit but this will not be known until the tank has been removed from the vehicle and the pump assembly removed. I would advise that a new fuel pump be installed anyway when the tank is down even if the rubber hose is found to be the cause of the problem. Good luck with getting your little S-10 working right again and enjoy the fuel savings.

Your banana tip post is timely for me. I just purchased a bunch yesterday for a friend coming into town this weekend and she won't eat them once there's a spot of brown. I bought them green but will separate them all tonite just to be extra safe.
Thank you!!

Laura: Whether it works or not it certainly is worth the try. When they do go too brown (black) put them in the freezer to use at another time for another project, but be careful when opening the freezer door for the avalanche (in my house)..Happy Wednesday..Judy

I saw on Pinterest that if you covered the ends of your bananas with tinfoil then it keeps them greener longer! I tried it and it seemed to work!

Well, learn something new every day. When they get to the brown speckled point I put them in the fridge. The skins turn brown but they stay fresh inside for several days. xo Diana

I am totally giving this a shot, Laura!! We either eat all of them within 24 hours or they sit for days untouched -- I can't ever gauge it correctly. At least now, maybe they'll look better while sitting. :)

T - Grapefruit hits you right off the bat with hints of malt. This brew is all about the bitter hops however.

USCIS Urges H-2A and H-2B Petitioners to Use the New Form I-129WASHINGTON — U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) reminds petitioners who participate in the H-2A agricultural temporary worker program and the H-2B nonagricultural temporary worker program to use the new Form I-129, "Petition for a Nonimmigrant Worker," which contains the H Classification Supplement. USCIS published the final rules for the H-2A classification (73 FR 76891) and the H-2B classification (73 FR 78104) in December 2008 with effective dates of Jan. 17, 2009, and Jan. 18, 2009, respectively. These final rules necessitated revising the H Classification Supplement to the Form I-129. The new Form I-129 with the Jan. 22, 2009 revision date incorporates all necessary changes on account of the H-2A and H-2B final rules and should be used in lieu of the older version. Petitioners who file using an older version of the form for the H-2A and H-2B classifications will experience delays because they will receive a request for the revised H Classification Supplement to the Form I-129. Although previous editions of the Form I-129 are still accepted, petitioners seeking H-2A and H-2B classifications are urged to use the most current version of the Form I-129 posted on the Web site.

A week after the company pledged to improve the quality of the software, some locations are already showing signs of attention, notably corrections to points of interest and improvements in detail, including 3D representations.
Macrumors today points to some notable improvements and expansions in 3D data, including a 3D view of New York's Statue of Liberty, which appeared as a flat aerial shot in the initial public release and has since been given the 3D flyover treatment.

California hands-free law sparks Bluetooth boon
The numbers are in for Bluetooth headset sales in California, and the retail hype around the new hands-free-driving law seems to have paid off. The law boosted device sales to four times the national average, according to a report by retail market researcher The NPD Group.
NPD said California's four largest markets--San Francisco, Sacramento, Los Angeles, and San Diego--saw a major Bluetooth boost in the months before the law went into effect effect July 1.
In March, San Francisco sold two times more Bluetooth headsets than the national average. By May that number had risen to four times the … Read more

Pomfret senior residents - who were shut out of discussions on program reductions by the town - will get a chance to voice their thoughts on a new site.
This afternoon at 3:30 in town hall, board members are asking for residents' comments regarding the move to the Masonic Lodge on Main Street in the village. If the town does formally approve the lease, it will be for only Monday, Wednesday, and Friday's from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m.
"If we do go there, which I think we will - there is no reason why we wouldn't - we will have a lease agreement from April through Dec. 31. And if - and this is a big if - if seniors are willing to step up and volunteer to take responsibility for organizing the events," said Town Board member Pat Christina.
Pomfret reduced its senior funding in 2012 to $15,000, a decrease of more than $33,000 from last year. In the meantime in 2011, the board bought a new $26,000 truck, paid $465 for a Christmas dinner for town officials and found it necessary to purchase a new plow blade for $5,000.
The way it looks from here is spending money is important to Pomfret when it serves the interests of the town government, not the residents.

We've heard about meth, bath salts and other types of illegal drugs and how they've kept local law enforcement busy.
But after Thursday's raids, we know heroin may be the biggest drug problem of all.
Area law enforcement agencies are happy with the results of Thursday's drug busts in both Wood and Washington Counties.
But they realize it doesn't wipe out the problem completely.
As is also the case in other West Virginia cities, the drug trade is coming in from major metropolitan areas, such as Detroit and Chicago.
And the reason it's so widespread is that heroin, even considering it's illegal, is costing less than ever.
"I think the markets dictate the price, and I think it's lucrative enough for these guys to come and establish themselves as drug producers or drug providers," says Parkersburg Police Chief Joe Martin.
Washington County Sheriff Larry Mincks says the problem is just as bad on the Ohio side of the river, adding the drug trade doesn't know the river separates the two states.
For that reason, the drug task forces in both states work very closely with each other, as they did with Thursday's raids.
Parkersburg Police say one of the suspects from Thursday's 19th Street raid, Keith Irons, remains at large.
The names of those individuals taken into custody in Thursday's drug bust have been released.
The Parkersburg Police Department says Marion Alonvo Felder, Zinia Wakefield, Daquarri Tamar Coats, Gerri Raye Parker and Cordaro Robert Karl Johnson were all taken into custody Thursday.
All five are charged with one or more counts of delivery of a controlled substance or conspiracy to deliver.
All five individuals were processed at the Parkersburg Police Department and arraigned in Wood County Magistrate Court yesterday.
They all failed to post bond. They are currently in the Wood County Holding Center awaiting transport to the North Central Regional Jail.
Investigators continue to look for Keith Irons. He currently has two active felony warrants for delivery of a controlled substance.
"The amount of damage that they have been doing in regards to the amount of heroin that has been hitting the streets in Wood County is phenomenal, the amount of money that they are making is phenomenal," explains Sgt. Greg Collins.
Months of investigation lands one of the biggest drug busts Parkersburg, and even this area, has ever seen. "Its involved a lot of surveillance, a lot of controlled drug buys from our targets," continues Collins.
These targets, five main suspects, accused of bringing mass amounts of heroin from Chicago to right here in the Valley.
Police say its clear the pay out weighs the risk. "These are people that aren't from here and don't care about any of the quality of life issues here and they come here to make money. They are making triple the money they are paying for heroin in Chicago or Detroit, they are making triple that here."
Ten agencies teamed up for the investigation... Including both the Parkersburg and Washington Co. Task Forces and even federal agents.
"The amount of time that we've put in together, the amount of intelligence that we've shared, the amount of hours that we have worked late at night, all these agencies. It has made a big difference and we hope that the arrests we make today will cripple the organization."
While officials hope these arrests will make a dent in the drug problem throughout the Valley they say its clear the fight still continues.
"We certainly aren't going to stop investigating," says Collins. "We are going to continue on and we want to see some of them in custody and some of them are very significant so we are going to keep digging."
One of the most significant and largest heroin busts Parkersburg has ever seen.
It involves an investigation with several months of surveillance.
According to Sgt. Greg Collins with the Parkersburg Police Department, officials had warrants for five suspects.
Thursday began with a traffic stop near Washington and Latrobe Streets with one of the more significant suspects.
After taking him into custody officials hit 2811 Dudley Avenue - one of the confirmed locations for drug distribution - which led to another suspect taken into custody.
CPS was on scene as well.
Shortly after a third suspect was arrested.
The investigation continues as officials look for the last two suspects.
"The amount of damage they have been doing in regards to the amount of heroin that has been hitting the streets in Wood County is phenomenal," says Sgt. Collins. "The amount of money they are making is phenomenal. These are not people that are from here and don't care about any of the quality of life issues here."
Sgt. Collins said he is very proud of the work on both sides of the river and all the agencies involved have put in.
A total of ten agencies have been collaborating to get these arrests, including the FBI.
Authorities are on the scene of a drug bust at 2811 Dudley Avenue in Parkersburg.
Parkersburg Police say three people have been arrested on heroin charges and they are looking for two more people.
We have a reporter on the scene and we will bring you more information as it becomes avaiable.

Editorial Reviews
I also loved the ending. I won't give it away, but I will say it leaves you wanting more, waiting for the next book, but without being upset the author cut off at such a point. Still, I will be reading the next book in the series, The Healing, (and maybe if I am lucky I can do an advance review!)
I greatly enjoyed this novel and found their ways of relating to be heart-warming and inspirational. My own family has a very strong faith base, but whether or not that is the case with readers, there are still wonderful scenes in this book to be encountered and genuine people to meet. While it is fiction, it very accurately reflects the way families and individuals resolve their questions, problems, and challenges. And like all of us, Titus learns that he has the capability to make choices that will insure a measure of happiness for him and any future family he may have.
This is really an old-fashioned love story and I hope you all will read it soon.

To create and implement a plan for equal access to housing; the Citywide Housing Strategy will ensure that the Portland Housing Bureau's (PHB) investments and influence will serve the housing needs of all Portland residents.
PHB has teamed up with the Bureau of Planning and Sustainability (BPS), and tap into our internal and external experts on equity and fair housing to complement and leverage ongoing Portland Plan efforts.
One's address is the primary determiner for their ability to achieve prosperity through access to community assets. Using a set of indicators, PHB created a series of maps detailing neighborhood-level access to amenities such as quality schools, transportation and healthy food. These maps a foundation for making decisions about where to invest and how to influence the housing market.
PHB works with many nonprofit groups who build and maintain affordable homes for individuals and families who earn less than the median income. Through the Citywide Housing Strategy, we engage our partners to help us extend our reach into underserved communities. Focus groups from traditionally underrepresented communities help PHB verify mapping data, identify on-the-ground realities missed during the mapping exercise, and shape strategies for meeting demands going forward. A technical advisory committee of ten stakeholders and Portland Housing Advisory Commission members meet regularly to oversee the process and add creative insight.
Based on data from the mapping exercise and collaboration with BPS on the Comprehensive Plan, PHB will draft strategies to direct our investments, align city resources and influence the housing market in five-, ten- and 25-year time frames.

Brazil's restless youth in the lead-up to the World Cup.
The same forces that put his family in the slum also gave him the golf course on the other side of the wall, and the teachers and sponsors, and the strange ability to hit a ball with a club. But it still doesn't make sense. Sometimes it seems as if fate is wrestling with itself, making sure the circumstances of his birth are always conspiring to take away whatever gifts might allow him to escape it. He lives in two worlds, each one pulling away from the other. Anil is in the middle, trying to keep his balance.
Searching for Jimmy Robinson, a boxer who fought Muhammad Ali in 1961, then disappeared.
On the day of the earthquake, two men went into Haiti's Soccer Federation headquarters. Only one came out.

Cause philanthropub opening in D.C.
In a town filled with trendy bars and restaurants D.C.'s newest potential hotspot might have the most unique twist.
Welcome to the country's first philanthrobar: Cause D.C. on 9th Street Northwest.
The idea is the brainchild of Raj Ratwani and his friend Nick Vilette. They met while working in a doctoral program at George Mason University. Nick went off to the peace corps and Raj finished his doctorate in psychology. When they got back together they had a beer at a local bar and talked about ways to give back to society.
They gathered their own money, found some investors, began raising funds and then bought an abandoned 25-hundred-square-foot, two story Italian restaurant on 9th Street. They then began turning it into Cause.
They pledge every penny they make after paying their operating costs goes to charitable organizations. Adam Stein will be their chief chef. Right now, he's helping with renovations.
Every three months, Cause will feature three to six charitable organizations and when a customer gets their bill at the end of the night, they designate which charity the profits go to.
The owners will take no salaries and say they will post their financial records on the walls inside monthly. Cause should be open for business in a week or so.
Many people love the idea.
"That's actually great news," says Robert Nadine. "I wish more bars and restaurants would do that."

< Return To Hearing
The Honorable Patrick Leahy
United States Senator
Statement of Senator Patrick Leahy Thank you, Mr. Chairman and Senator Kennedy, for bringing the Broadway stage into the Judiciary Committee hearing room. This Committee has a long history of tackling intellectual property questions. I would note tomorrow's mark-up agenda, which includes half a dozen IP bills, largely dealing with the copyright and patent problems that have arisen along with the new technologies and distribution methods. But the playwrights' plaint is a long-standing one, and I will be interested to hear the story of its history and possible resolution. Live theater is a delightful and important part of our culture, and a wonderful way to bring children and young people into the community of arts supporters. I am an enthusiastic proponent of the many new technologies which are making audiovisual works available, at an ever higher quality and ever lower cost, to an ever greater number of people. At the same time, I am very interested in preserving and promoting the unique and wonderful experience of live productions, opera and community theater. The best of the Internet age can co-exist peacefully and productively alongside the tradition that has been entertaining and educating people since the ancient Greeks. I am very cautious about the antitrust laws. They were designed to ensure that competitive marketplaces could operate without undue pressures and, in large part, have been effective. I do recognize that markets can fail, and that adjustments sometimes must be made that recognize imbalance in bargaining power. This may be such a case. I will need to hear more about the situation to make that determination. I am hopeful that our impressive panel of witnesses will help make a fair and thorough record. In addition, I have asked the Department of Justice to share with us the views of its Antitrust Division on this legislative proposal. We are a fortunate nation, to have the benefit of the creative genius of so many writers and artists, and to have the financial and administrative acumen of the producers and promoters who can bring that art to so many people. We need to be sure that we encourage rather than burden this wonderful source of entertainment and enlightenment for us, and that we ensure that Americans are able to experience live theater now and in generations to come. # # # # # |

Edge On The Clock: Denzel to Play Jesus?Denzel Washington has filled some pretty big shoes on the big screen, but can he play Jesus? A group of adoring fans seem to think so. They picked Washington in a Vanity Fair/60 Minute Poll as the star they would like to see the most in the role. Runner up was Daniel Day-Lewis, followed by Al Pacino. Ryan Gosling barely edged out Woody Allen for the fourth spot, and Philip Seymour Hoffman came in last. Plus: Women more likely to dump ugly boyfriends around their time of the month. A huge wardrobe malfunction for X Factor Judge Khloe Kardashian, even Simon Cowell tweeted the AC was on high. |

Comments about 12-1/2-in Benchtop Planer:
I have never used a planer and wanted one to plane boards and small pieces of wood for small items of furniture and other wooden objects. This planer seems powerful and easy to use. However, the instructions were not complete on how to use it or how to change the blades. So far, the blades are still sharp and the machine is functioning well. It's a bit scary to me, but I'm getting used to the noise and the large amount of wood shavings it puts out.

how many blades or knifes1 answer
This planer uses 2 Double-edged reversible, quick change knives.Q:
Does this planer have a dust collection port?1 answer
No, this planer is not equipped with a dust collection port.Q:
My wood stock is 7 to 12" wide, rough cut to 1/4" thick, and I need to plane both sides to reach 1/8" thickness. My experience with planers is that once the wood gets less than 1/4" thick, the planer will not effectively grip and feed the wood while cutting, sometimes shredding the wood, and often shooting it out. Will this planer safely and reliably plane both sides of the wood down to 0.120"?0 answers
