Skillet-Roasted Lamb Loins with Herbs
Cathal Armstrong's family always celebrated the end of Lent with lamb, and preparing the meal became an all-day event that left the adults "snoring on the couch." Cathal's preparation for lamb nowadays isn't exhausting at all: He rubs the loins with herbs, garlic and shallots, then ties them up, sears them and finishes them in the oven. The result is succulent, delicately flavored meat.

A gripping intellectual history reveals how Oliver Wendell Holmes became a free-speech advocate and established the modern understanding of the First Amendment...Now, with the aid of newly discovered letters and confidential memos, law professor Thomas Healy reconstructs in vivid detail Holmes's journey from free-speech opponent to First Amendment hero. It is the story of a remarkable behind-the-scenes campaign by a group of progressives to bring a legal icon around to their way of thinking--and a deeply touching human narrative of an old man saved from loneliness and despair by a few unlikely young friends. Beautifully written and exhaustively researched, The Great Dissent is intellectual history at its best, revealing how free debate can alter the life of a man and the legal landscape of an entire nation.
In Grave Injustice Richard A. Stack seeks to advance the anti-death penalty argument by examining the cases of individuals who, like Davis, have been executed but are likely innocent. By telling the stories of Jesse Tafero, Ruben Cantu, Carlos DeLuna, Cameron Todd Willingham, Larry Griffin, and others, Stack puts a human face on the ultimate and irrevocable tragedy of capital punishment.

Stay Trendy with Trooper Fur Hats
3:12 pm on Tuesday, July 24th, 2012
Previously considered a fashion faux pas, trooper fur hats today are winter accessories that are commonly associated with China's, Canada's and Russia's cold climates. These hats started to become famous when these were featured in many popular TV shows and movies.
With a trooper fur hat, you can be cool and bold while keeping up with the latest style. If you are looking for the ultimate solution to beat the cold weather, this is the hat. It will make you look good and will provide you with warmth that is unmatched. A trooper fur hat is made from the finest available fur. These hats can be made of sheepskin, fox fur, raccoon fur, sheared beaver, muskrat, and many more!
Trooper fur hats have weather-shielding flaps: on the back, front and two sides, which can be tied at the top for that fashionable and cool look. Just tie the strings after flipping up the flaps, then go. If you want to shield the back of your neck from the rain or snow, you can simply release the back flap. The hat is designed in a way that its back flap will rest at the top of your jacket, so the wet and cold elements will be deflected and will not soak your back. You do the same if you want your ears to get protection also. The flaps of trooper hats are not only utilitarian; but the feel of fur on the skin is great.
Trooper hats are great when you need to be warm while doing yard work, going to watch a football game with friends, or just keeping warm during the cold winter days. Whatever you use the trooper hats for, the style is always there. When you are in the market for a trooper fur hat, always check the design, colors and fur materials. Make sure to pair your fur hat with fur jackets or fur coats.
'Hats on Parade' event was a milliner's delight
3:17 pm on Tuesday, July 17th, 2012
Looking for new ideas check out the "Hats on Parade" event showcasing many different hat styles through history. Make sure you keep warm this season with fashion fur hats.
Hats and gloves were the order of the day as the Santa Ynez Valley Historical Museum held its "Hats On Parade" Tea and Hat Fashion Show on Saturday, June 16.
The Tea ran in conjunction with the Museum's new hat exhibit in the Jeanette Lyons Room, presented by the Costume Council.
Kaye Spilker, curator of costumes and textiles at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art, gave an informative lecture on hats through history.
"A hat is the most noticeable fashion item you can wear, as the onlooker's attention is drawn to the face. The old saying goes, 'If you want to get ahead and get noticed, then get a hat,'" Spilker said at the opening of her lecture.
Spilker covered the etiquette and formality of hats, different styles of hats throughout the ages, how the times, both political and economic, changed the style, shape and size of hats, and how feathers became fashionable almost to the point of wiping out certain species.

Keep Warm with a Russian Cossack Hat
3:08 pm on Tuesday, July 10th, 2012
When the temperature falls, there is no better way to be protected from the chills and still look fashionable than wearing a Russian Cossack hat. Snow and freezing weather should not be a problem, instead use harsh weather to make a fashion statement. Cossack hats are made from the softest furs such as rabbit, mink, silver fox, mouton, sheared beaver, and are sure to keep your face framed in luxury.
Russian Cossack hats are also sometimes called a "Ushanka" hat, which means ear flaps. There are 2 ear flaps which you can tie up at the top or bottom. When you let the ear flaps down, you get protection from the winter-y cold wind for your ears, back of the neck and chin. Cossack hats have a thick fur exterior and polyester lining, and are available in several colors like black, brown, mahogany, gray, and many more. You can buy them with the Soviet badge, (which is detachable), for an authentic look. There are many different sizes to choose from to ensure a great fit.
The Russian Cossack hats has been used by the Russians for centuries, and have been proven to protect them from the very harsh winters of Russia and Ukraine.

Fur Hats Trend in Philippine Fashion Week
7:28 pm on Friday, June 1st, 2012
Check out this great article about fur hats the Mr. Diaz chose to adorn his models in the Philippine Fashion Week Holiday 2012.
"There was an old Russian feel to Mr. Diaz's collection, most likely stemming from the fur hats he opted to adorn his models. Aside from black and dark purple, holiday hues dominated — dark forest green and deep reds — and even holiday-ish fabrics like velvet and faux fur.
Mr. Delos Santos' models came out fierce and ready to take over the runway in his bright red pieces. Female curves were flaunted without going overboard. Leather and hair — yes, hair — were seen throughout the collection.
A 1970s vibe permeated throughout the collection but the outfits were styled in a way that did not give them a dated look.
The dated look was intentional in Mr. Ramirez's collection which referenced the fashion of the early 1900s. The pieces boasted of silks and laces, styled with pearl necklaces and less skin showing."

Memoirs of a Geisha by Arthur Golden: "Presented as the memoirs of a celebrated Japanese geisha, Golden's first novel follows a poor youngster from her humble origins in a rural fishing village to her later years spent in luxurious surroundings in New York City's Waldorf-Astoria. In 1929, nine-year-old Sayuri is sold to an okiya in Kyoto by her desperate father, where she is slated to be trained as a geisha. The intensive courses require her to learn how to dance, play a musical instrument, gracefully wear the heavy, layered costumes, apply elaborate makeup, and, most especially, beguile powerful men. Initially stymied by the jealous, vindictive Hatsumomo, the okiya's top earner, Sayuri is eventually taken under the wing of one of Hatsumomo's chief rivals, Mameha. She proves to be such an astute businesswoman that her campaign to make Sayuri a success results in Sayuri's setting a new record when two wealthy men get into a bidding war over who will be the one to claim her virginity.

Paris retains an eternal allure for the creative. And the gifted expatriates who flocked to the City of Lights in the 1920s often felt the hallowed pursuit of their individual muses justified unconventional personal behavior. The Paris Wife by Paula McLain chronicles the courtship and subsequent marriage of Hadley Richardson and Ernest Hemingway—a relationship strained and eventually damaged by their friends' hedonistic lifestyles.
Hadley, who was seven years his senior, met her future husband in Chicago. Although quite the ladies' man, Hemingway was immediately drawn to her wholesome beauty, even temperament, and courage. Hadley's unconditional support bolstered Hemingway, a man already plagued by multiple demons, and gave him the companionship he needed to wholeheartedly pursue his writing.

- Kind'a naive: Where does underground transportation relieve congestion?I would call Hanoi congested because of all the motorbikes parked on the sidewalks - last week I walked as much in the street (at great peril) as on so called sidewalks. And there are only 150 000 cars, a few thousand buses, and well over 1 MILLION two-wheelers!To leave Jakarta from a meeting..on congestion pricing - a bunch of us were given a police escort. I got to ride shotgun in the police car itself (no they were kicking us out..the police escort didnt help much; Jakarta has pay tollways as well as free surface streets, and while the pay tollways are crowded they are much faster than the parallel streets that are free..Bangalore? Bangkok? Calcutta? Delhi? All bad.It really depends what you mean by congestion. In cars/lane-km of street? In cars/sq km of city? Where do we count motorbikes? In lost time compared with travel time at freeflow? That's unfair because there really is no such thing as free flow except at 2 AM...The best emblem of all of this - the CICI bank in Pune with a card table set up in front and a sign offering low cost loans for two wheelers - even though the streets themselves have no real sidewalks...why is there lots of private money for private transport but not even money to p rovide the public infrastructure for private transport but neither money for cost effective, clean public transport nor the will to charge people for using the public infrastructure.

Crowded Cities
Having the worst traffic can mean the worst accidents, worst pollution, worst
crowding, worst commutes and a host of other ugly conditions and experiences.
The list of the worst world cities for traffic is skewed by the growing impact
of transportation revolutions in developing countries. It takes time to build a
road infrastructure. It takes time to install and maintain a traffic system.
Traffic lights have to be coordinated and their power source has to have
redundancy. It takes time to train and educate drivers.
The list of the world's most congested cities centers on many Asian and a few
African and Latin American cities that for the most part are playing catch up or
trying to. For the moment, at least, their growth is defeating them. Moreover,
"traffic is only one of the side effects of growth," says Roy Barnes, the author
and former Georgia governor, who had to contend with his own problems of
congestion and growth.
The inner cities in developing countries normally don't have underground
transportation, and that means street traffic, and that means congestion. Even
the presence of a new subway as in Cairo has not really relieved the pressure of
ever more vehicles on Cairo's roads.
Cities with the highest density of population per square kilometer are the
logical candidates for becoming the most congested, because congestion increases
as the growth in their wealth increases the number of cars versus the less
expensive alternatives of bicycles, motor scooters or motorcycles. Cars take up
more room whether they are in motion or when parked--if they can be parked. U.S.
and European cities have often chosen to place garages in new buildings, while
older non-industrialized cities often lack such amenities. Cars may therefore be
parked everywhere, legally or illegally.
The cities with the highest level of population congestion are:
* Manila, the Philippines;
* Cairo, Egypt;
* Lagos, Nigeria;
* Macau, off the Chinese coast;
* Seoul, South Korea;
* Dhaka, Bangladesh;
* Buenos Aires, Argentina;
* Jakarta, Indonesia;
* Kaohsiung, Taiwan; and Santo Domingo,
* the Dominican Republic.
To drive a car in any of them might be the ultimate challenge.
Well over 50 million cars are being manufactured in the world each year, and
they have to go someplace. There are over 240 million vehicles in the U.S.
alone, while the world estimate is over 750 million vehicles and counting. The
tilt is toward more vehicles for those places least able to cope with them. It
is estimated that by 2030 the number of vehicles in the world will double.
These cities have priorities, but the priorities rarely include building new
roads or repairing old roads. The investment that's required also includes
elements that go far beyond digging, filling and paving. There is a political
nightmare that involves the need for land to build the road and a buy-in from
the government, local despots and citizens. Making a better commute can get lost
in the shuffle of appeasing or greasing each of these individuals or groups.
The last word is from an expert musing over Los Angles--a candidate for
congestion if there ever was one. "If they'd lower the taxes and get rid of the
smog and clean up the traffic mess, I really believe I'd settle here until the
next earthquake," said Groucho Marx.

Adams: Pompey exit deserved
25 Jan 2009 - 10:38:41
Portsmouth boss Tony Adams had no complaints after seeing the holders dumped out of the FA Cup in the fourth round by Championship side Swansea City.
Pompey were beaten 2-0 at Fratton Park, with Adams feeling that some of his side had taken the challenge of the swans too lightly.
He told The News: "I am so disappointed, I thought we were poor in the first half. We were outclassed, outplayed and outfought and that's not good enough.
"We were well prepared for the game, but maybe some of the guys were surprised by just how good Swansea were.
"I did warn the players we were up against a very good Swansea team who like to pass the ball and that we would be in trouble if we weren't prepared.
"Sadly, I was proved right. Without that fight you go out of this competition.
"We didn't deserve to be 2-0 down at half-time, but we didn't play well in the first half either. We were very poor.
"It's disappointing to go out of the FA Cup, no matter what round it is, but you have to put defeats like this to bed as quickly as possible."

These are the 5 best new car lease deals in the United States for the month of February, 2015.
BMW is putting a lot of its chips on the success of its forthcoming front-wheel drive models, and it's making a big bet on the company's future in hoping that customers will accept them. Its front-driving UKL platform is underpinning not just the current crop of Minis but a host of BMW vehicles too. The rollout starts with the 2 Series Active Tourer in Europe later this year. But the Bavarian brand confirms to Automotive News Europe that the next one is the X1 crossover, slated to come to Europe
BMW has made it official - there will be a flagship crossover called X7, and it will be built right here in the US of A. The announcement was made today, confirming rumors of the new model at the Spartanburg, SC factory that broke earlier this week.
BMW could bring yet another niche-busting product to the market in 2017 if a report form a forum is to be believed. According to the BMW X1 Forum of Bimmerpost, 2017 could see the debut of the BMW X2. Yes, X2.
BMW's decision to make the upcoming 2-Series Active Tourer front-wheel drive has been polarizing to say the least, but like it or not, that is the direction the company will go in the near future – one rumor put the number as high as 23 front-wheel-drive models for Mini and BMW combined. The next-generation X1 won't send all its power to the front wheels, though, when it launches in early 2016. While it will use the same platform as the Active Tourer, rumors suggest all models will use all
It's been over five years since BMW first introduced the X1 at the 2008 Paris Motor Show, and a bit over a year since it brought the compact crossover to these shores. Soon the Bavarian automaker will replace the X1 with a new model based on the company's new front-drive architecture, but not before it gives it a few updates to keep it fresh.
It was just a few weeks ago that we got our first glimpse of the next-generation BMW X1, riding around on a flatbed. Now, we have the first batch of images of the small crossover moving under its own steam.
Bimmerfest is reporting that BMW has notified the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration of its intention to voluntarily recall more than 75,000 3 Series, 5 Series, X1, X3 and Z4 models due to a possible loss of power brake assist that could result in the vehicles failing to stop. The recall affects 2012-2014 models equipped with either the N20 or N26 engine produced from May 2012 to August 2013. Until recall repairs have been performed, BMW dealers will discontinue selling or delivering
The X1 had been around for four years before it was added to BMW's US lineup, so it isn't all that surprising that a new version of the company's smallest Sport Activity Vehicle is already in the works. Captured in transit on the back of a flatbed truck, these spy shots give us our first look at the next-gen X1 – codenamed F48 – which is expected to debut around 2015.
BMW has teamed up with Chinese automaker Brilliance Automotive to create a joint venture in China, called Zinoro, and it appears that an all-electric version of the X1 crossover is to be the brand's first model. Spotted testing in Munich, these spy shots show a more camouflaged version of the X1 EV that we saw back in April.
A Tasty Bit Of Old School For The New School
So here's something interesting. This might look like an ordinary BMW X1, but take a closer glance – those stickers on the side read "hybrid test vehicle," and around back, there doesn't appear to be a tailpipe at all. But does this mean that BMW is working on a straight-up all-electric version of its smallest crossover? Let's hypothesize for a moment.
Automakers continue to pour big money into the developing market that is China, and new sub-brands born of joint ventures with domestic partners crop up on what seems like a weekly basis. The latest? According to reports, BMW and its Chinese ally Brilliance are forming a new sub-brand called Zhi Nuo ("The Promise") that will likely rely on existing or older BMW products as a basis for new models.
BMW managed to eke ahead of Audi for the global luxury sales crown in February. According to Bloomberg, BMW saw deliveries swell by 7 percent in February, besting the 3.2 percent jump enjoyed by Audi and giving BMW a 407-unit delivery lead over its rival last month. Mercedes-Benz, meanwhile, continued to falter, with the brand selling some 37,229 fewer machines than BMW, whose factories are running at full capacity to keep up with demand. Models like the X1 (shown above) enjoyed a sales increase
BMW is celebrating the North American launch of its X1 compact crossover with a special edition and the new lifestyle-oriented concept shown above. The Concept K2 Powder Ride is the summation of a three-year partnership between BMW and sports-equipment manufacturer K2. The companies have slathered the exterior of an X1 with a special graphics package lifted from a limited-edition K2 ski and designers bolted on a custom roof rack to accommodate all sorts of gear. The rack also features a Harman K
BMW was one of the biggest corporate supporters of the 2012 London Olympics, earning the right to be its official car sponsor. But it wasn't just ponying up a few dozen 7 Series for the IOC that got it this plum gig. BMW made a commitment to meet specific CO2 emissions targets for the vehicles it provided.
We Finally Get It. Was It Worth The Wait?
BMW first introduced the North American market to diesels way back in 1983, with the introduction of its 524td. Under the hood of the E28 5 Series was the automaker's M21 turbocharged diesel, a 2.4-liter inline-six rated at 115 horsepower and 155 pound-feet of torque. It was mated to a standard four-speed automatic transmission. At the time, BMW claimed it was the world's fastest production diesel-powered car, but its numbers (0-60 in about 12 seconds and a maximum speed of 112 mph) look rather
When the next generation BMW X1 arrives sometime around 2015, it will be based on a front-wheel drive architecture, sharing its platform with the Mini Countryman. This isn't new news – stories and editorials have been parsing BMW's FWD strategy for more than a year, and in April of 2011, now-CEO Ian Robertson proclaimed there could be six to nine new BMW and Mini models as part of a "compact car family" based on a shared platform.
The cupboard of virtual options has opened itself yet again with the appearance of the 2013 BMW X1 configurator. There are three choices of X1 to choose from, the sDrive28i, xDrive28i and xDrive35i, and then three trim levels beyond that: X Line, Sport Line and M Sport Line.

Technomad Advanced Audio Solution Brings New Energy to Texas School District Athletic Programs
Covenant Communications relies on Technomadâs all-inclusive, outdoor audio solution for batting cages; installation follows several previous sports audio upgrades
BOSTON, May 28, 2013 â Houston-area systems design and integration firm Covenant Communications has gradually transformed sports audio for the Alvin Independent School District in southern Texas in recent years, installing Technomad advanced audio loudspeakers across baseball and softball fields, a large football stadium and other athletic venues to improve quality and coverage.
Covenant Communications extended those audio benefits to the new batting cages at Manvel High School this spring, injecting fresh energy into the arduous drill of batting practice. The Technomad solution here covers all the bases, bringing together two full-range loudspeakers, an outdoor amplifier and a flexible audio control system. All components are completely weatherproof for protection against the heat, humidity and moisture of the harsh coastal-area climate.
âTechnomad is the only choice for us in the weatherproof loudspeaker category, but we werenât sure how to power a system in this situation,â said Shawn Mullins, President, Covenant Communications. âThe batting cages are typically designed as a metal structure with a roof, open sides, a chain link fence and nets to catch the balls. We knew whatever we put out there would be exposed to moisture, severe thunderstorms and occasional hurricane-force winds and rains. We wanted to find something we could bolt down, plug in and leave alone.â
Mullins quickly discovered the Technomad PowerChiton, a series of compact, weatherproof amplifier modules that contractors can install outdoors and close to loudspeakers. The series also now includes the PowerChiton BreakoutBox, a similarly designed module offering accessible microphone and media player connections, audio control and device storage. The solution removes the need for a separate equipment rack and power source, with a single cable providing direct connection to the amplifier module.
âThe PowerChiton was the only option we found outside the conventional mindset,â said Mullins. âIt blends in well with other electrical equipment boxes; most people donât even realize itâs there. It also completely eliminated the need for a portable PA system. We didnât want to force coaches to roll in an equipment rack every time students wanted music.â
And the students are certainly getting music. Two Technomad Noho loudspeakers are positioned to the left and right sides, splitting the distance to the center of the cages. The broad dispersion provides even coverage throughout, immersing batters in the auditory experience.
Mullins used Technomad outdoor yoke mounts to hang the Nohos, citing ease of angling as a major benefit. âThe yokes allow us to tilt the loudspeakers to whatever point we need, and it also saves us the time of custom fabricating mounting equipment,â he said. âItâs a simple point-blank hang, reinforced with a safety cable.â
Ultimately, the many Technomad installations across the Alvin School District are representative of an organization that takes pride in its sporting programs. Alvin Memorial Stadium is the showcase of these installations, featuring five Technomad Berlin outdoor loudspeakers â the largest in the companyâs portfolio â spreading even coverage of intelligible voice and full-range music across the large venue.
âSporting programs are very prominent in Texas, and this school district has been aggressive with integrating technology into their venues,â said Mullins. âAnd the Technomads have performed very well. We have had some of their loudspeakers outside in a hostile weather environment for seven or eight years, and weâve never had any performance issues.â
Technomad LLC, founded in 1995, designs and manufactures loudspeaker systems for the professional audio and security/military technology industries. The company invented the first reliable full-range weatherproof loudspeaker and now offers nine models ranging in power from 60-watt loudspeakers to 1250-watt subwoofers â most available in Turnkey PA System packages featuring amplifiers, mixers and other signal processing equipment in pre-wired racks. The company also manufactures a variety of audio infrastructure and communications equipment including playback and recording systems, weatherproof power amplifiers and turnkey remote audio systems. Contact Technomad at 617-275-8898 or visit www.technomad.com for more information.

Did anything happen yesterday?
FROM PULLMAN — If you picked yesterday to stay in bed all day with your phone, television and Internet turned off, you've got a lot of catching up to do. You're also our target audience this morning. Sort of. Read on.
First, a reminder that we'll chat live today at 1 p.m. … Starting in our corner of the world, we link you to our game story from WSU's win over Utah last night, along with a pair of blog posts with more postgame content. … Howie Stalwick covered the game for the Kitsap Sun and filed this story. … Here's the AP story. … Here are the stories from the Utah perspective. … There was also football news yesterday for WSU, as the Arizona Daily Star reported that running back Daniel Jenkins will transfer to WSU for his final season. He's earned his degree already, accoridng to the story, which means he'll be eligible immediately. … The Cougars' next opponent, Colorado, lost 64-54 at Washington last night and fell to 1-4 in Pac-12 play.
Around the Pac-12 … OK, so this isn't Pac-12-related, but since everyone's talking about it, we might as well link to it, too. It has been revealed through a very lengthy, rambling Deadspin report that Manti Te'o, as you know by now, was apparently in an online relationship with a girlfriend who didn't exist, meaning that several in-depth stories written about their relationship — and her (fake) death — were the result of writers (and everyone else) being duped. Wild, wild stuff. … The biggest story in the college football world yesterday should have been the departure of Chip Kelly to become coach of the Philadelphia Eagles, just days after it was reported that he was staying at Oregon. … In basketball action today: UCLA and its clutch veterans host Oregon State (6 p.m., ESPNU), and USC will play its first game under interim coach Bob Cantu against Oregon. … Carrick Felix is getting some headlines in advance of Arizona State's big game against Arizona on Saturday. … Stanford can't afford a loss to California on Saturday.
Check back at 1 p.m. for our live chat. There might be pie.

Authorities Gang Up on ViolenceAccording to Mayor Landrieu and his team of law enforcement officials, New Orleans' crime rate is largely the result of gang violence. Da' Mayor and his NOLA For Life Campaign members gathered at City Hall today to send a strong message to those responsible for the persistent death toll: the city is pursuing violent offenders with renewed vigor and longer sentencing. Unlike Ceasefire, an initiative which approaches crime from a public health perspective rather than by focusing solely on punitive measures, the Group Violence Reduction Strategy is geared towards aggressive enforcement and keeping criminals behind bars as long as possible. The five pillars of the NOLA For Life component are listed as follows. "Stop the shootings, invest in prevention, promote jobs and opportunity, get involved and rebuild neighborhoods, and improve the NOPD." The strategy is a collaborative effort of the NOPD, the District Attorney's Office, the Orleans Parish Sheriff's Office, the Louisiana State Police, the Parole Board, the U.S. Attorney's Office, the FBI, the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, and Firearms, the DEA, the U.S. Marshal's Office, and the U.S. Probation and Parole Office for the Eastern District of Louisiana. Landrieu explained that the Group Violence Reduction Strategy was the brainchild of Professor David Kennedy, whom Landrieu referred to as a "renowned criminologist." Major cities such as Boston, New York, Chicago, and Philadelphia have implemented similar strategies and seen positive results, according to Mayor Mitch. Da' Mayor said that a relatively small number of people are responsible for virtually all of the violent crime in the city. "A small group of individuals in gangs, in loosely affiliated groups committing the shootings and the murders. We've identified 600 individuals, and we think they belong to loosely 39 different groups." Landrieu sent a clear signal to potential offenders, using some of Spike Lee's lingo. "You have a choice. You can get in line, you can flip your script and turn your life around, or you can face the consequences." Chief Ronal Serpas hammered down the point. "I have complete confidence in the men and women of this police department to carry this ball over the line. We take this effort very serious," Serpas said, before emphasizing that the goal of the initiative is "long investigations, and long prison sentences." U.S. Attorney Jim Letten warned violent offenders that his office and the Office of Leon Cannizzaro will approach criminals with harsher sentences and robust investigations. "The bad guys out there need to understand that as aggressive and efficient as this system has been, it's going to get better," said Letten. District Attorney Leon Cannizzaro echoed previous statements, adding that NOLA For Life's approach to ending violence includes more collaborative efforts between agencies. "This sort of venture is different in that we're involved with the law enforcement agencies at ground zero. We have some sort of input when they are making the case, when they are gathering the intelligence. We sort of have some input into the direction of the investigation, with an eye towards prosecution," said the D.A. "Stop. We're coming after you, and we're going to put you away for as long as the law allows," he added. State Police Spokesman Ronnie Jones lightened the mood with a quip about Kernel Edmondson's longwinded tendencies. "The bad news is Colonel Edmondson because he's in New Jersey with our troopers. The good news is we'll get out earlier because he's not here." One reporter asked Mayor Landrieu to elaborate on pillar number three, the "jobs and opportunities," component of the murder reduction strategy. Mayor Mitch responded, "That is another piece of this, and I have another group of individuals with expertise in training programs, people with expertise in education, expertise in jobs, expertise in re entry. These young individuals will have personal meetings with them, counseling sessions. They will be a priority for us as well." Jim Letten was excited to respond to another reporter's inquiries concerning the methods his office would use to pursue longer sentences. "In real time this evidence as it's collected, whether its derived from electronic surveillance or digital surveillance, or the use of a subpoena to bring in witnesses," Letten went on, "sometimes using a basic conspiracy charge not just to charge one or two people but to charge five, six, seven people in a single indictment to present to a single jury…so that the system can take out big groups at a time," he explained. |
