With Barcelona interested in Liverpool star the Anfield club could well bag winger Alexis Sanchez in any potential deal, according to the Daily Star.
Liverpool have shown interest in Sanchez in the past and the Nou Camp outfit are hoping a cash plus player bid could be enough to tempt Suarez to La Liga.
And Sanchez, who is rated at around £25m, is having an excellent World Cup with surprise package Chile and impressed in their two wins so far in the competition.
While the Reds prevailed in their struggles to keep the Uruguayan hit man last summer – resisting a £40m plus one pound bid to trigger his release clause, there fight could be made increasingly difficult following the players comments after beating England at the World Cup last week.
Suarez stated after his two goal heroics: "People in England laughed about my attitude over the last few years.
"I want to see what they think now."
And with Barcelona set to go a major rebuild before the new season they want a landmark signing as a statement of intent to their rivals.
However, their lack of financial capability could see players heading in the opposite direction of deals, with Sanchez the preferred bait in any deal.

Two different forms of obsession drive the protagonists in Leigh's smoldering-hot new espionage tale. Scarred by events from their childhoods, the hero and heroine are driven by revenge and their incredible passion for each other. This chapter of Leigh's SEAL saga reverberates with deadly danger.
Hatred and vengeance have driven former SEAL Ian Fuentes deep undercover to destroy his father, drug kingpin Diego, and a dangerous terrorist named Sorrell. But to all appearances, Ian has gone rogue and is in league
With the U.S. government, the cartel and terrorists all out for Ian's blood, someone needs to watch his back, and Kira figures that's her job. Treachery, double dealing and murder are all too common in Ian's "new life"; can he succeed in his quest without losing his soul? (ST. MARTIN'S, Mar., 370 pp., $6.99)

Easy to make and the best fudge I've tasted from a home kitchen. It's become a family holiday classic!
Fairly easy and good, but not great. The texture was spot-on but it lacked a real rich chocolatey taste when I made it with semi-sweet chocolate. Next time I'll use dark chocolate and maybe a hint of coffee.
First time fudge maker here. I doubled this recipe and it came out great. I had some trouble getting it up to temperature without mortally wounding myself - I would recommend a nice deep pan for this recipe. Other than that, it set perfectly and tastes really good - smooth consistency, very chocolatey. It is a bit too sweet, however. I might cut back the sugar next time around and add nuts for some variety. Based on the success of this recipe, I would make it again with slight modifications.
I made the fudge exactly as the recipe says except I sprinkled it with miniature chocolate chips and chipped pecans. I really liked the texture of the fudge. It was not as teeth-achingly sweet as some fudge, but still too much sugar for me. I'm not sure if I would make it again. - would probably try something else first (I'd rather make dark chocolate truffles, but this is so much easier, especially just cutting it into 3 wide bars).
Yum, Yum and Yum!!! This recipe was easy to make...I am first time fudge maker and it turned out perfect. I skipped the chocolate chips and added chopped up toffee instead - delicious!
I have been looking for a really good fudge recipe for years - I have found it! It's so delcious - creamy, rich, decadent!! It will become part of my Christmas candy favorites!
OK - my rating might not mean much since this was the first fudge I've ever made. However, it flew off the plate - against a lot of really good desserts and chocolates at both Xmas parties I brought it to. I did not use the chocolate chips, but used chopped, toasted pecans instead. I got so many requests from relatives that I have sent the link to this recipe more often than the one to my kids' pictures (it was a family crowd...)
This was absolutely delicious! Make sure you have and use the candy thermometer, though - it makes all the difference. Next time I'll probably garnish with a sprinkling of brown or powdered sugar instead of the chocolate chips - I found that they just made it hard to cut and didn't add much.

|Great Last 1.5 Miles
Date Climbed: Sep 13, 2014
|The first few miles of the trail are pretty straightforward, but once you get a view of the peak, things get interesting fast. It never becomes anything technical, but the views are great and the exposure is just enough to make things interesting. Highly recommended hike, even though you can't see the lake from the summit.
Heard elk bugles on the way in and crossed paths with elk and a bear on the way back to the car!

Date Climbed: Aug 24, 2014
|Started at 6 am, not sure why I was thinking this one would take so long. It doesn't. I summited at 8:15 am. Easy approach, fun hike up the summit pinnacle. Sullivan is right in his book, there are at least 36 switchbacks, some only a few steps in distance, but they are all there. Got a call from my brother wishing me happy birthday on the summit. No idea how there is cell reception at the top! Back at the trailhead by 10:30 even with a half hour break at the summit. Fun, always wanted to tag this one.

|Humid and warm day with some mosquitoes. Met a NPS trail crew working on the upper trail. The trail makes this ascent quite straightforward, with one switchback at class 2 with some exposure.

|I have done this peak twice, once in 2007, with my friend Mike and then again in 2008 with a large group of friends and family. The second trip was fun because my girlfriend Brook, really started to see why I enjoyed climbing so much and she literally flew up the mountain.

Sport Auto: 1M vs M135i on Hockenheim performance results
View Single Post

In fact, they keep on forgetting but the M135i test car also had the adaptive suspension, maybe less important but it is likely an other advantage for M135i. Also may explain why test driver von Saurma made a good lap with M135i on the Ring but less so with the 1M (despite slightly quicker) because he was criticizing the 1M's suspension in that supertest, couldn't get comfortable with the car. One definitely wonders what would be the inicial lap times and performance data for the 1M if it was (could) granted the PSS from factory.
Nevertheless, M135i takes the prize for the best bung for the money if you can live with the looks.
This was what I posted in the other thread before:
Results are mostly like I was expecting, and whereever M135i gets really close to 1M or even betters it at few details, it is very likely down to tire difference (PSS vs PS2) like it is stated in the text. It is very interesting for example that the brakes in the hatch works superb at normal speeds but from 200 km/h to 0, there is a considerable difference to 1M's advantage 133.0 meters vs. 140,4 meters, which is a truck's length. The same observation applies to slalom/handling tests.
Another detail is, in fact Sport Auto dynoed M135i with 340 ps and 493 nm at the crank and published it, so if we compare it with average dyno results for 1M (let's say around 360 ps and 550 nm) it is rather interesting that both are underrated at similar percentages and both weigh close to each other (1M even lighter with 7 kg.) despite BMW's claims that the hatch would be quite lighter than 1M. The article has an error by the way, 1M is the lighter car on Sport Auto's balance.
Despite tire disadvantage, at the relatively short Hockenheim track, lap difference of 1.6 seconds alone demonstrates how well the 1M suits to track duty compared to M135i with 8-speed auto and adaptive suspension. Horst von Saurma's 8.14.9 minutes Ring time for the 1M on the other hand remains arguable in my eyes but that's a whole other discussion.
"The mark of a great car is one whose overall competence exceeds what you should expect from its individual components and the 1M does just that", Chris Harris.

Who knew the Les Misérables Broadway banner image of Cosette could look so satanic with a McDonald's logo in the middle of her forehead? Ben Frost, apparently.

Junk food, cereal boxes, tiny pharmaceutical containers, and more are covered in Frost's cheeky redesigns.

10 of Music's Weirdest Sources for Samples

10 Amusing TV Theme Song Covers by Famous Musicians
If you were watching Late Night With Jimmy Fallon the other night, you might have been rather taken aback and amused by special musical guest Alicia Keys' choice of song. Instead of performing one of her hits, she broke out a cover of the theme song to 1980s Disney TV series Adventures of the Gummi Bears. The bizarre spectacle got us thinking about some of the other covers of TV themes that have surfaced over the years — surprisingly enough, there aren't that many to choose from, especially once you set aside the inexplicable '90s/'00s trend of dire punk bands doing self-consciously goofy TV covers for reasons only they can explain. Still, there have been some to buck the trend, so here's a New Found Glory-less roundup of famous bands doing TV theme songs for your listening pleasure. Did we miss any? … Read More

10 Great State-of-the-Nation Albums
The new Dan Deacon album was released yesterday, and it's perhaps the last thing we would have expected from a man once so interested in the idea of music as a purely sonic entity, devoid of any narrative or greater meaning: it's a loose concept album about America. Deacon has written some interesting stuff about the ideas behind the album, which is entitled simply America, on his website, noting that "The inspiration for the music was my love of cross-country travel, seeing the landscapes of the United States, going from east to west and back again over the course of seasons," while "The lyrics are inspired by my frustration, fear and anger towards the country and world I live in and am a part of." The result is a fascinating state-of-the-nation album, a record that's both personal and also vocal about the country of its creator. In celebration of its release, here are some of our favorite albums that address similar subject matter. … Read More
A Longish List of Long Songs That Are Totally Worth Your Time
As you might have read yesterday, we're going quietly bananas over the new Swans record, which is definitely our favorite album of August and quite possibly our favorite thus far of 2012. It's also home to two tracks that clock in at above 20 minutes long, one other that's just over 19 minutes, and a couple more that push 10 minutes. Songs that long are always a risky proposition — the whole idea of the ultra-lengthy epic is often associated with prog and its multitude of sins, but the realms of a 10-minute-plus song are also home to some of our absolute favorites. Here's a nice long selection to get the discussion started — what did we miss? (If you say "Stairway to Heaven" we reserve the right to trace your IP and throw fish food at your window.) … Read More

Beautiful autumn day in Chesterfield.
I forgot to post yesterday when I got home from work, Stitches calved! She had a little girl. Stitches scared me this morning because she was sick and it look really bad. But we IV'd her some calcium and now she is much better. Baby is doing great!
New calf born on the farm today. A cute baby girl! Her mom, Memphis, took good care of her all day. Mom and baby are doing great!
My newest addition or, according to my boss, "Audrey Hepburn", because she is the only black and white cow on the farm except for my other Holstein, so clearly she's famous.
She learned to walk on the halter well, so here's hoping for a good show season with her. :)
I'll be moving out to NY in November to hopefully accomplish opening a bottling plant and providing wholesome dairy products and perhaps more to as many people as I can.
I'm pretty excited about it and I get to bring my three lovely ladies with me (cows), which will be interesting. An 8 hour trip all across the state of NY. It will be interesting to say the least.

Geosphere-Biosphere Interactions and Climate
Preview (read now) Add to my own site Give this ebook to a friend Add to my wishlist Author's page Publisher's page
moreGeosphere-Biosphere Interactions and Climate brings together many of the world's leading environmental scientists to discuss the interaction between the geosphere/biosphere and climate. The volume was first published in 2002 and arises from a working group of the prestigious Pontifical Academy of Sciences and the International Geosphere–Biosphere Programme. The chapters give an excellent summary of the understanding of the climate and environment by understanding Earth's past, human influence on the climate, a description of climate and its relation to the Earth's surface, ocean, and atmosphere, and future predictions of climate variability. This volume will be invaluable for researchers and graduate students in climate studies who wish to gain a multidisciplinary perspective of our current understanding of the interaction between the geosphere/biosphere and climate. less

"We are excited to be ending the subscription season with the classic musical Guys and Dolls," said owner and producer Bill Hanney in a statement. "This show is considered to be the perfect musical, and our artistic director Arianna Knapp, director Mark Martino, and I have put together the perfect cast of performers to bring this colorful show to life. I know our audiences will be thrilled with this production."
"Set in the hustle and bustle of prohibition era New York City," Guys and Dolls, according to press notes, "soars with the spirit of Broadway as it introduces us to a cast of vivid characters including; Sarah Brown, the upright but uptight 'mission doll,' out to reform the evildoers of Time Square; Sky Masterson, the slick, high-rolling gambler who woos her on a bet and ends up falling in love; Adelaide, the chronically ill nightclub performer whose condition is brought on by the fact she's been engaged to the same man for 14 years; and Nathan Detroit, her devoted fiancé, desperate as always to find a spot for his infamous floating crap game."
Based on "The Idyll of Sarah Brown" and characters by Damon Runyon, the musical features a book by Jo Swerling and Abe Burrows, and an iconic score by Frank Loesser.
The creative team also features Erik D. Diaz (scenic designer), Paula Peasley-Ninestein (costume coordinator), Kirk Bookman (lighting designer), Michael Eisenberg (sound designer), Gerard Kelly (wig and hair design), Natalie A. Lynch (production stage manager), Colin R. Freeman (assistant musical director) and Michael T. Clarkston (assistant stage manager).

This is shabby chic, but not as you know it! When it came to styling their wedding at Casa de Festas Largo do Arruda in Brazil, Danilo and Mônica spared no expense!
"We believe every wedding is unique", wrote the bride. "When planning our wedding we quickly found on Pinterest and Rock n Roll Bride, which helped us a lot. We looked at other weddings we liked, but instead of copying things, mashed them with things that we felt were very 'us'."
"We did some DIY and some things we nearly forgot about, like having tags on the invitations. We had to do it by ourselves because we were late with their delivery. It took several hours cutting paper, writing and making a tiny heart shaped hole in each tag. The same thing happened with the rice packs that we used instead of confetti."

The Hornby Eagle Group (HEG) formed in 2009 to continue broadcasting the Hornby Eagles webcam, which was first streamed in 2006. In December 2010, the Group became a registered non-profit Society in British Columbia and was renamed the Hornby Eagle Group Projects Society (HEGPS).
For two years, we were privileged to broadcast a live, intimate view of a beloved pair of bald eagles, Mom and Dad Hornby, and their eaglets Phoenix (2010) and Alexandra & David (2011). The original webcams were retired in the autumn of 2011. In April 2012, HEGPS installed a new camera on "Gregg's Tree", which is about 230 feet from the nest tree; while the view is not as intimate as provided by the older cameras, we can see the Hornby's territory and perch trees, as well as the nest tree and nest itself. The Hornby Island ground crew continues to monitor the nest and post videos and photographs of Mom and Dad Hornby in our forum (Our Nature Zone).
September 2014. After a season of ups-and-downs, Mom and Dad fledged one gorgeous eagle, whom we called "Scootch" for Dad Hornby's stylish manner of settling in the nest with a kick of his feet and a wiggle to ensure a perfect nest bowl.
Here is a video compilation of the season's important moments, including Scootch's fledging on August 8 at 90 days of age, her/his fall and subsequent homecoming two days later and departure with Mom for the salmon runs.

You obtain home from work and you also see that you've got a couple missed calls from an unknown number; you check the voice mail to find that we now have no messages. You shrug it off and figure that it must have been a wrong number. Then it begins to become regular occurrence. You decide to call the number right back only to discover that there is no answer, or it goes to a generic voice mail. In the course of time this will become frustrating. You intend to know who's calling me and just why they keep calling.
There's something that you are able to do yourself to learn who it really is that keeps calling you and not leaving messages. A very important factor that you can do would be to type the telephone number in a search engine and hope that some information comes up on the caller. However, more often than not this will not yield many results. That is why most people just take their search to a reverse cell phone lookup internet site.
When you use a reverse cell phone lookup internet site you will be able to obtain information on who owns that cell phone number. You'll be able to pull up such information as their name, address, and much more. This should really help you to work out who it is that keeps calling you and the reason for them calling.
Once you've this information you then will be able to contact them, whether through a different number as well as by sending them a letter. If you are trying to figure out who it is that's calling you, the new cell phone reverse lookup sites will be the easiest way to recognize unknown callers to obtain the name and address of the one who is calling you.

Cougar Baseball Stay Undefeated Against G.I.S.A. Foes
There is a lot that could be said about yesterday's game. Great pitching, pivotal hitting, and defensive gems turned by both the infield and the outfield. To say that we played against the fighting kitty cats from that school on the hill in Dunwoody would be an understatement. I think that Mr. Kipling says it best: If If you can keep your head when all about you Are losing theirs and blaming it on you; If you can trust yourself when all men doubt you, But make allowance for their doubting too: If you can wait and not be tired by waiting, Or,...read more

Venus On Fire
Halocene, Our Final Moment, T-Shirts 4 Tomorrow
The Walnut Room - Walnut Street Location
3131 Walnut St.
Denver, CO, 80205
This event is 21 and over
The name in itself demands attention and the band has certainly captured it, garnering an impressive following both in and outside their "birthplace" of Minneapolis, Minnesota. Their musical endeavor began as a partnership comprised of singer/songwriter Tory Envy and guitarist Leng Moua. Since their inception in 2009, Venus on Fire has released two EPs: Clone Factory (2010) and My Furious Frenzy (2011).
In 2012, the band acquired members Carl Smith (Bass) and Joe Ingle (Drums) which noticeably enhanced the energy and atmosphere in their live performance. The quartet combines lush melodies, hook-heavy riffs, and a tight rhythm section to back their pop/punk showmanship, exhibiting sounds from pulsing rhythms to vulnerable vocals augmented by an ocean of deftly layered guitars.
With a new intensity and attitude, the band has begun working on their anticipated third EP to be released in 2013. Venus on Fire released their single, "War," on February 19, 2013 and will be following up with a music video. This is without a doubt a busy year for Venus on Fire, so keep your eyes and ears open as they will consistently be releasing new material in the near future.
Halocene is a 100% independently run band. *Opened for Blink-182, Jimmy Eat World, Fall Out Boy | As seen on the Vans Warped Tour.
Our Final Moment
Our Final Moment is not a band. It is an idea. Inspired by one, practiced by few, and will soon be accepted by many.
Hailing from Brighton, Colorado, this quartet teeters on the genre borders of pop/punk and hardcore. Fusing pop/punk style lyrics, rhythm and flow with heavy low end breakdowns; they bring an exciting roller coaster ride of a show. T4T is most praised for its live performances, where they are certain to deliver high energy, and witty humor all the while bring you a fantastic show of musicianship. Come to one show, and you will be hooked on this up and coming band!

Formidable Faulkner suffers Octagon nerves in TUF 9
Going into the fight we all believed Frank Lester was a perfect opponent for Dave Faulkner. Dave was phenomenal in training and we all thought he'd have more than enough to deal with what Frank brought to the table.
We were backing Dave as one of our best welterweights. I think we could have matched Dave with any of the welterweights in training and he'd have had his way with them. On training form alone, Dave should have been winning the whole competition. That's what made his fight with Frankie all the more frustrating. When we're training with Dave he's always taking us down and tapping us out as if it's no big thing. He doesn't even have to think about it. He could also just stand and outbox people if he wanted to. All in all, he was kind of like the ultimate training partner. He was that good.
I think when he gets to the big stage, Dave just suffers a little bit with nerves and can't quite get to grips with the fight situation. He seems to be a different fighter to the one that trains in the gym.
I was pleased to see Frankie come back and get a second chance to progress to the semi-finals. I got on really well with Frankie in the house and I still keep in touch with him now we're both out. He was a really funny guy and always put his heart on his sleeve. You won't find many tougher than Frankie and I think he deserved his second shot. It showed what kind of fighter Frankie is to come back from that war with James Wilks and then go another hard two rounds with Dave.
Frankie was on the show for all the right reasons, unlike someone like Jason Pierce. Frankie was there to test himself and fight all-comers. I think Dave's problems with Frankie actually occurred before the fight. I was in the van going to the fight and I could tell that Dave's head just wasn't there. I was trying to motivate him and psyche him up for the fight, but Dave just wasn't right. He couldn't get his head focused. To be honest with you, Dave seemed beaten before he even got to the gym that day. When we were watching the fight it just seemed like a totally different Dave Faulkner. He wasn't doing any of the stuff he did in the gym and he just looked like a different fighter altogether. We were so frustrated watching it. We were shouting and screaming to spur him on and couldn't believe the way it ended.
Dave doesn't have a problem with his cardio. He was training hard every day and he never gassed once in training. He was a really fit guy and it was massively frustrating to see him fade like that. It was almost like it was purely down to nervous energy. I was frustrated as well as disappointed at the way Dave ended the fight. I could have been at death's door on that stool and I'm still going out for the third round. I would never have given up like that. That's just the way I am. To see Dave like that, and to know the potential he has, was really hard for me to take. He's a brilliant fighter and a brilliant guy and nobody wanted to see him end his time in the competition like that. After the fight, Dave just kept saying how much he enjoyed the fight. He'd say it over and over again and I couldn't understand where he was coming from. How could you enjoy getting beaten like that? He lost the fight. I think Dave was just so relived to get the fight out the way and relieve all the stress and pressure that had built up on his shoulders. I think that was why he reacted the way he did at the end. We were all disappointed to see Jeff (Lawson) and Dave lose our final two preliminary fights, but we moved into the semi-finals full of confidence. We had four UK guys in the semis and were very confident that we'd have at least two guys in the final. We saw what happened with Dave in the final prelim fight and that just spurred us on even more. It made us re-focus on why we were on show and just re-confirmed how much we wanted it… See Ross Pearson attempt to win a six figure contract with the UFC in 'The Ultimate Fighter 9: Team USA vs. Team UK' on Virgin 1 at 11pm on Sundays.

DALLAS (AP) — A solar-powered plane has landed in Texas, completing the second leg of a trip across the United States.
The Solar Impulse is making the first attempt by a solar airplane capable of flying day and night without fuel to fly across the U.S.
The plane landed early Thursday at Dallas-Fort Worth International Airport after taking off Wednesday from Phoenix.
The plane flew its first leg from California in early May. From Dallas, it will fly to Lambert-St. Louis airport, Dulles airport near Washington and New York's John F. Kennedy airport.
Each flight leg takes 20 or so hours, with multiday stops in each city.
Pilot Andre Borschberg is one of the plane's creators along with Bertrand Piccard.

Dog owner and nearby resident, Kathy Morrison, came to the scene on Alemeda and San Pedro wanting to know about Rico the APD police dog.
"He said he was one of their young ones they were hoping for the best for him as I am," Morrison said.
APD says the owners of a towing company on San Pedro called 911 around 2:45 a.m. about a possible burglary.
When officers got there they found the suspect barricaded inside.
A K-9 unit was sent in. That's when police say the man started shooting.
The dog was hit several times. Police say when they finally searched the area they found the man dead.
They think he may have killed himself. APD says they did not fire their weapons and there are no other suspects.
The dog was rushed to the veterinarian for emergency surgery.
"Those dogs go home with them (K-9 officers) at night so it's a personal thing for the K-9 unit to have one of their dogs shot," said Simon Drobik with APD.
"I'd be very upset," said Morrison, "Extremely upset if it were my dog."
Nearby businesses had to open later than usual until the investigation was over.
"We were concerned," said Deborah Madrid said, "We did a whole thorough check at our own place."
As for neighbors like Kathy Morrison, she says her heart goes out to Rico's law enforcement family.
"You get a real close attachment to them and I'm sure the officer who has them home with his family has an attachment to him too," she said.
APD has been tweeting updates.
Earlier Friday afternoon, @ABQPOLICE tweeted: "Rico is out of surgery & stable. He has sustained massive trauma. His handler is by his side."

"Health for Sale"-Posters on Display at the Philadelphia Museum of
An exhibit of health posters illustrating the enduring human

of the ebullient old guy dancing in his night shirt after Uricure repairs his decrepit
joints. There is also a wonderful poster
of "Man as Industrial Palace", showing a chamber in the upper part of the brain where
little men in suits and ties deliberate around a cerebral conference table
while menial workers operate physical system and solitary craftsmen in the bone
marrow department stamp out red blood cells. The museum collection, on display through July
31, was donated by William H. Helfand, a retired Merck executive and collector of
medical memorabilia.

'Guru Utsav 2014' has nothing to do with renaming 'Teachers Day' : Smriti Irani
Union Human Resource and Development (HRD) Minister Smriti Irani on Monday rubbished reports about the government planning to celebrate 'Teachers Day' as 'Guru Utsav', saying a deliberate attempt is being made to distort certain facts.
She said 'Guru Utsav' is an essay competition being organized for students both past and present and will highlight the contribution of teachers in their lives.
"I will only say this that a deliberate attempt is being made to distort certain facts, 'Guru Utsav 2014' is an essay competition for all the students past and present as to how they celebrate the contribution of their teachers in their lives," said Irani.
Leaders of the DMK, PMK and MDMK had earlier demanded the withdrawal of the order to rename Teachers' Day as 'Guru Utsav.'
DMK supremo M Karunanidhi had slammed the Centre's move to celebrate Teachers' Day as 'Guru Utsav', and alleged that a conspiracy was being hatched to downgrade Tamil language and society by such a move.
Meanwhile, Irani said that the government is seriously consider addressing the gender related issues.
"One of the manifesto promises of the Bharatiya Janata Party-led NDA government was that through our school curriculum within the teaching community and the students' community, one will sensitize individuals, citizens and students on issues of gender," she said.

Winnipeg Free Press - PRINT EDITION
Letters to Ottawa reveal outrage about Vince Li
Anger over Li freedoms highlights mental-health stigma: expert
Canadians from Corner Brook to Kanata wrote to Justice Minister Peter MacKay earlier this year expressing outrage at a decision to allow Vince Li new liberties in Selkirk.
Documents released under access to information include letters and emails sent to MacKay in the month following the February decision by the Manitoba Review Board to grant Li unescorted passes into town as part of his gradual recovery from schizophrenia.
Li was found not criminally responsible for the gruesome killing of Tim McLean on board a Greyhound bus in 2008 in a case that made international headlines.
"This murder (sic) has no right to leave the institution ever! He is a danger to society!" wrote a Burlington, Ont., resident. "Please do your job and protect the innocent, hard-working Canadians that have put their faith in you."
"The justice system is getting to such a farce that it is almost laughable," wrote another. "Sick, sick, sick, is all I can say."
None of the 20 letters MacKay received in March expressed the view of physicians, mental-health advocates and the courts that Li suffered from an undiagnosed brain condition that caused hallucinations, a profound break from reality and the inability to know right from wrong. Instead, the letters echoed many of the fears and misconceptions that still beset mental illness, said Chris Summerville, executive director of the Manitoba Schizophrenia Society.
-- Chris Summerville, executive director of the Manitoba Schizophrenia Society
Summerville said some stigma is on the wane, thanks particularly to public figures, such as Olympian Clara Hughes, who have gone public about their battles with depression.
"It's a lot easier to talk about depression than it was 20 years ago," said Summerville. "I know we haven't made nearly as much headway with schizophrenia."
Many who wrote to MacKay said Li knew what he was doing when he killed McLean and argued he ought to stand trial now that he has recovered enough to be granted unescorted passes out of the Selkirk Mental Health Centre.
"He was guilty of such a horrible crime there is no way he should be allowed out, or he should be charged with the murder he committed," wrote a Regina resident.
Other writers said if doctors and mental-health advocates are so sure Li will not reoffend, they should volunteer to live next door to Li once he's released.
Summerville said it's extremely rare for a schizophrenia sufferer to commit the horrific violence Li did. Recidivism rates for people declared not criminally responsible are remarkably low, far lower than for inmates in the correctional system.
Among NCRs who have committed violent offences, the rate of re-offence is between four and seven per cent, several Canadian studies have found.
During the review board hearing in late February, Li's doctors said Li has been a model patient, shown great insight into what triggered the Greyhound attack and knows the importance of taking his medications.
Release conditions typically demand those found not criminally responsible for violent acts report regularly to mental-health workers or get regular visits at home so any changes in behaviour can be spotted long before they slowly develop into psychosis.
Those who wrote to MacKay also questioned the rights of the mentally ill to avoid automatic or long-term detention, rights embedded in the Charter of Rights and Freedoms and bolstered by several Supreme Court of Canada decisions.
"The pendulum of liberalism has swung too far," wrote an Ottawa man. "Not every violent criminal Canada should be 'saved.' "
"I find it totally appalling that Vince Li is now permitted to go on unescorted trips from his mental hospital," wrote a mother and grandmother from Corner Brook, NL. "I feel very strongly that he has no "right" to ever function unsupervised in our society again."
MacKay, who in March called Li's additional liberties "shocking" and "unsettling" replied to each of the letter-writers with a form letter of his own.
MacKay's reply touted his government's new bill, passed in April, which makes public safety a paramount consideration when review boards consider new freedoms for people found NCR.
The legislation also created a "high-risk accused" category that comes with tighter restrictions on people, such as a ban on unescorted passes from hospital.
MacKay also asked people to share their outrage with the Manitoba government because the review board's decision falls within provincial jurisdiction.
That echoes comments made by Manitoba's senior federal cabinet minister, Shelly Glover, in the days following the review board's decision.
Glover demanded Manitoba appeal the decision and criticized the provincial Crown attorney for failing to oppose Li's request for additional liberties.
