sad.. rip mork..does anyone have any ideas why??ReplyCancel
Tragic. RIP.ReplyCancel
Poor bastard. On of my all time faves.
Nanu-nanu, bro.
It's sad when someone loses the battle with addiction. Rip.ReplyCancel
wasn't he just the answer to a "shaking so badly needs rehab" BI?
Either way, this really sucks.
He and Chris Reeve are raising a glass somewhere right now.ReplyCancel
OMG! I always loved him! So sorry for his family.ReplyCancel
RIP Poor apparently tortured soulReplyCancel
Oh, my god. Tragic. Such a talented guy.ReplyCancel
He was in Rehab according to Enty as recently as July.ReplyCancel
I'm a Mork from Ork fan – Rest In ParadiseReplyCancel
So sad. RIP.ReplyCancel
So saddened by this news. RIP Robin.
I appreciate his sharing his talent with the world. He was one of a kind.
I guess his demons finally won.. This makes me so sad.. RIPReplyCancel
I grew up with Mork and Mindy. I adored him. This is heart breaking.ReplyCancel
This is so sad. I loved most of his movies growing up.
My favorite that he was in was What Dreams May Come. He portrayed his grief and emotional struggles so realistically in that movie.
Rest in peace, Mr. Patch Adams, and may you find your corner in Heaven. And condolences to his wife and family.ReplyCancel
Genie will be missed. So sad.ReplyCancel
I remember reading a while back, he was manic-depressive. From what I understand, when you're up..you are waaaaay up and when you are down (depressed) you are waaaay down. It's very extreme. Breaks my heart that he felt that bad that he had to die.ReplyCancel
Depression is really common after sobriety. I wish he could have found value in his life.ReplyCancel
Smiles hide more than frowns. Celebrity deaths don't normally bother me alot, but this one actually hurts a little. Robin Williams is a comedy legend. He will be sorely missed.ReplyCancel
RIP, Mrs Doubtfire. Nanoo, nanoo.ReplyCancel
Poor guy. That's so sad. I really like him. I hope he's found peace.ReplyCancel
His publicist issued a statement that he had been suffering from depression.
Also part of the statement
In a statement, Williams' wife Susan Schneider said she is "utterly heartbroken" over the death of her husband and best friend. She said the world has lost "one of its most beloved artists and beautiful human beings."
"On behalf of Robin's family, we are asking for privacy during our time of profound grief. As he is remembered, it is our hope the focus will not be on Robin's death, but on the countless moments of joy and laughter he gave to millions."ReplyCancel
Don't "Rest In Peace," Mr. Williams. Fill the afterlife with insanity and merriment and laughter and happy tears.ReplyCancel
Goddamn it. Goddamnit. I really was hoping this was a hoax. :'(
@Kaye those suffering from depression rarely think about getting help. There needs to be an intervention from friends and family. Been down this road.ReplyCancel
I was 14, sick & home from school, when I first saw Robin perform on the Alan Hamel show in 1977. (Alan is married to Suzanne Somers and had a schlocky afternoon talk/variety show way back when in Canada). He was amazing and he completely captivated me.
For months I couldn't stop talking about him. I tried to find out more, but no one knew what I was talking about. Fast forward to August of the same year and I read in the paper that Robin Williams was opening up for a band at the Ex. I freaked! Told everyone to buy tickets to see this guy. I'm waiting for tickets to go on sale, and plan to be first in line… then another ad appeared in the paper with a photo of Robin Williams, the opening act. It was a woman. A singer. I practically wept… Not too long after he landed Mork & Mindy and I seized the opportunity to tell everyone, "I told you so."ReplyCancel
R.I.P. Robin Williams. I would've never thought of him as someone commiting suicide. Serves to show one doesn't know artists beyond their public personas.ReplyCancel
That was a shocker for a Monday night.
I never forget Robin saying in a routine that he took cocaine to slow himself down. I always thought I believe you Robin you are so hyper, now I realize maybe manic was the better term.

But ain't too much sadder than

this is a shocker for ANY night-terrible,terrible,terrible,,,ReplyCancel
I bet he got a call last night to tell him when production on the show w/ Buffy is gonna start up, and he couldn't bare the thought of being in a room with her again.ReplyCancel
Dead Poets Society is one of my favorite novels; Williams brought it to life perfectly for film. RIP.
"To quote from Whitman, 'O me! O life!… of the questions of these recurring; of the endless trains of the faithless… of cities filled with the foolish; what good amid these, O me, O life?' Answer. That you are here – that life exists, and identity; that the powerful play goes on and you may contribute a verse. That the powerful play *goes on* and you may contribute a verse. What will your verse be?"ReplyCancel
Sad. RIPReplyCancel
I only recently watched Goodwill Hunting(don't judge), excellent film. People say Robin was a great comedic actor, he was a brilliant actor PERIOD and that movie was evidence of it. He seemed to have a lot of heart on screen. I'll always remember him from one of my childhood favorites….Jumanji!ReplyCancel
There's no excuse for losing someone to suicide like this anymore, not if the afflicted one has any kind of support system left. Even the blackest, most painful depressive cycles can be blunted with high enough dosages of SSRI's and anti-anxiety meds. You'll have to come down eventually and deal with the bleakness of your issues, but you won't kill yourself in the meantime.ReplyCancel
"I understand you are angry right now, but you obviously do not understand that type or level of depression."
Sadly, I do. I'm speaking from experience. Jack someone up on enough meds and they won't kill themselves. It's not a permanent solution, but they'll survive to work their way through their problems, hopefully.
Mind you, people who struggle with systemic manic-depression or plain ol' permanent neurochemical depression, well, from what I've seen fighting that war can wear you down to the point that it's more a case of euthanasia than suicide.ReplyCancel
Agreed @unknown.
But we all all in recovery of some form or another, our entire lives:the name, degrees or stages of the malady are all that separates us from one another.
With the utmost respect for Mr. Williams, I will only this..it wasn't drugs, booze(the band aids for depression) or the D word itself I fear that was his demon.
Therein lay something deeper , and far more- painful for him, and that was what , in the end…..prevailed.
And that is beyond ..sad. Always the brightest stars in sky, the ones that make everyone ELSe in the room comfortable, that are dying inside a little bit…:(
He was immeasurably kind , gifted, and most appreciated by me…humble.
Fare thee well sirReplyCancel
It makes me so, so sad, but I get it. I'm married to a brilliantly funny man who fights depression like a son of a bitch. If we didn't have kids to live for, I don't know if he'd fight it so hard. I'm sure Robin DID try to fight for his family's sake – that make his death even sadder. Those of us who are parents know that if you can't do it (fight depression or addiction or other issues) for your kids, you've got to be in a truly dark place. Shine on, you crazy diamond. Hope he's found peace and release from his pain.ReplyCancel
RIP to a true genius. I have friends who worked with Robin and have heard nothing but great things. Such a tragedy and loss.

@chopchop: are you my secret sister?! My pops looks exactly like Robin too! That just makes this harderReplyCancel
@Lady H
Thank you
Come on B, meds are not always the answer. Obviously Robin was In A very very dark place with his fighting his addiction and also being manic. One can't pass judgement or know what another feels when in that desperate state.
Man, I am really torn up about this and not even a huge fan. Just the thought that this man, who was so loved by so many, couldn't find a way to go on is absolutely heartbreaking. Mental health in this country needs to be taken seriously!
I'm crushed. RW wasn't on my radar for a while and then that show the Crazy Ones came on tv. I absolutely loved it. He seemed so fit and happy and funny on that show. I was crushed when it was cancelled and now I'm genuinely saddened to hear this terrible news. I feel very bad for his young daughter. Such a sad,sad day.ReplyCancel

May you finally be at peace, Mr KeatingReplyCancel
I hate that people dismiss suicide as a selfish act or a cowardly act. It is DESPAIR taken to the outer limits of hell. If you've never been there, count your fucking blessings.
Damn. :'(ReplyCancel
It's impossible to understand unless you've been there yourself, trapped in that dark spiral, unable to see any relief ahead. In the blackest moments, life seems to be a burden rather than the gift that it is.
Rest in peace, Robin.
My thoughts and prayers are with his children.
I was standing in the laundromat this evening when the Special Report came on, and I feel as if I've been sucker-punched. Losing someone like him would have been bad enough, but finding out it was suicide… :'-(
Good night, sweet prince…ReplyCancel
"Profane, you apparently have never been in the mindset where death seems to be the only option to get rid of the pain. Drug therapy is not a cure all, that is an extremely ignorant statement."
Unfortunately, I have, and my statement comes from brutal experience. Don't lecture me, I do know exactly what it's like to be there.
The drugs that are available now can blunt the seriously depressive downswings enough to prevent most suicides. Yes, people can slip through the cracks–my best friend blew his head off in high school and non of us knew he was that depressed. But these days, with the greater awareness of the symptoms of serious depression, if you've got any kind of support system left there should be someone around to drag you out and get put on the meds so that you'll survive. Wallowing in the old existential angst model of treating suicidal depression as inevitable is just irresponsible.ReplyCancel

Could he have been overwhelmed by financial problems? In this article he says he took the TV show because he needed the money. He also had his Napa mansion up for sale since 2012, and recently reduced the price last month, because he said he could no longer afford to keep it.
You're welcome! That Pearly Gates quote really got me today and I wanted to share it. I'm trying to focus on all of the joyful moments that Robin contributed to our lives and to this world. HeisenHugs to my fellow sad CdaNers <3ReplyCancel
@ count that was funny to read. Made me laugh a little… I think Robin's wicked sense of humor would have found it funny..
It's so sad…the guy was a comedic genius and I was such a huge fan of his work. I am usually unaffected by strangers' deaths. But I am very very saddened that he died and especially this way.
I remember about a few months ago I think, I had the privilege of reading one of robin's amas on reddit. I was crying tears from laughing so hard. His humor has always had that effect upon me though. I would encourage any true fans of his to look up his AMA on reddit and prepare to be thoroughly entertained. R.i.p. Robin! Godspeed, my friend!ReplyCancel
I literally said OMG out loud when I read the news. @TriciaS I concur with your comments regarding the funniest people hide the greatest pain.
Robin Williams was brilliantly manic. His old stand up routines were so fast and so sharp I thought he was going light speed on coke.
Yes it is true the most gifted at making others laugh carry the deepest pain. I remember a singer who I had seen so many times in concerts and enjoyed say he himself had extreme highs and lows. I think some people would rather experience the full spectrum of life rather than medicate it to a dull even calm. In the end, the life is a gift. We can do with it as we will. Sometimes the pain gets too much, for some I can't blame them personally for wanting to get out. It is selfish on our parts to want someone to stick around when they want so badly to go.
R.I.P. Robin Williams thanks for the laughs
You can watch Mork & Mindy reruns on Hulu and Hook. None of his films are available for streaming except 3 poorly rated ones on Netflix.
I grew up watching Mork and Mindy too. RIP.ReplyCancel
When I heard he was going to rehab (in MN I think?) a month or so ago, I was afraid it would lead to something like this. RIP Mr. Williams. Thanks for the years of good times and great laughs. I wish you had been able to reach out to someone and let them know what was going on before falling this far. However, as a depressive with suicidal tendencies (and 8 years' clean & sober), I unfortunately understand how hard that can be.
I've made a donation to NAMI in your memory.
You will be greatly missed.ReplyCancel
Depression can't always be helped. There are people (like me) who are resistant to all anti-depressants and even to E.C.T. It can be a day to day struggle and it breaks my heart to see anyone lose that struggle because I know how awful it is to feel that hopeless. I want to smack anyone who goes on the knee jerk rant about how "selfish" suicide is;please shut up Todd Bridges.ReplyCancel
Damn. Instantly thought of the last Enty blind revealed of him spotted on a flight shaking non stop and in really poor shape.
If he were in rehab as recently as 7/14 then I can only speculate how he went from there to where he ended up last night. *shudder*
I'm kind of surprised more people in this country don't consider euthanasia in their old age. I plan on it. I have no intent on suffering a slow, grueling, and painful death from a terminal illness. I'd rather pick and choose when and where. At least Williams was able to do that much.ReplyCancel

This is heartbreaking. I feel like it is a personal loss, which makes no sense. I guess he was just able to move me that much. Hugs all,ReplyCancel
So very sad..his unique quicksilver comic genius gone.ReplyCancel
@ B. Profane – Can you FOR ONCE put a sock in it? This is a place where people are gathering to post thoughts and feelings about an artist who touched our lives and you cannot resist YET AGAIN taking a hammer and building yourself a friggin' soap box so you can preach to your imaginary choir. Please don't make this a stage for yourself to pontificate endlessly about mental illness and wow us with your vocabulary of psychiatric terminology. You are not the only one who's suffered a loss. Say your piece about how Mr Williams did (or didn't) touch your life and then kindly STFU. THIS IS NOT ABOUT YOU.ReplyCancel
Let us not forget that many of us with depression DID get help Ans we may be doing everything we're supposed to — meds, therapy, lifestyle changes, spirituality — and the insidious beast that I call The Fog can still win. I would bet that Robin tried everything possible; he certainly had the means to do so. So very, very tragic.ReplyCancel
With all due respect, this is not 100% true. We are finding that many people taking SSRIs, for example, eventually become absolutely immune to them. I personally have been on 15-20 various psychotropic meds, and I still cannot find the right treatment, and I still have dark thoughts from time to time. Sometimes the MI DOES win, sadly.ReplyCancel
Eros – I started reading AMA at your suggestion. This popped out:
Robin, was it hard not to laugh at Hank Azaria during the making of "The Birdcage"?
[–]RobinWilliamsHere[S] 3058 points 10 months ago
OH, it was really hard. His voice, that character, Agador Spartacus. It wasn't just me that had a hard time. Mike Nichols would laugh so hard they would have to put a blanket over his head. The other guy who was so funny was Gene Hackman. His speech about the leaves in New England was one of the funniest, driest pieces of comedy I'd ever seen.
[–]tellme_areyoufree 2021 points 10 months ago*x2
Odd as it might sound, The Birdcage was a movie that played a part in making it ok to talk to my mom about being gay.
I remember the movie coming on on TV while mom and I were watching, and once I realized it was gay-themed I froze. We got through the movie and the entire time I was too afraid to laugh. At the end, my mom said something like (paraphrasing): "that was a funny movie. I never really thought of gay people as normal people with families." And I don't know why, but I blurted out "I have a family."
It didn't go easy from there, but to this day I'm amazed at the power comedy had (and has) to humanize. What is more human than laughing? Anyway, thank you.ReplyCancel
So awful. It is amazing how many people he touched. Everyone has reacted to this. The man was a national treasure. I read part of an interview he did almost a year ago. He spoke of money troubles- that he'd given up so much in divorces that he had to sell a ranch he could no longer afford . He basically said he took the show after 30 years off tv to get a steady check because his choices were indie films with limited budget or distribution or going back on the road to do stand-up. I think that provides insight coupled with the rehab need, etc. He gave money to Christopher Reeve when he needed it & it's so sad with all the people he knew no one could help him out with money and emotional support. So sad someone who brought such joy to others didn't have that bright light in his life.ReplyCancel
One of my all-time favorite quotes was his, "You're only given a small spark of madness. You mustn't lose it." (I THINK I quoted that correctly. I'm tired. I'm sure you've all heard what we're dealing with in STL. Between that and hearing of Robin's passing, "bummed" doesn't begin to cover it.)ReplyCancel
@_-_=_ He was really an amazing man. I mean you read his responses and how mindblowingly funny some of them are and it's hard to grasp how someone who was so full of life, creativity and character is really no longer here. It is beyond shocking. I am not one given to tears, but this melted even my cold brittle heart.
I think I'm going to go check out the AMA and remember robin with some laughter. Thanks!ReplyCancel
@Eros: That is why I posted it. I don't think Robin would want everyone sitting around a pity party, so I threw in a chuckle.ReplyCancel
RIP you funny, hairy, wonderful man. So many films of his I've loved but his standup was the best. Improv genius, off the cuff and slightly manic.
May your troubled soul find the peace this life never afforded you, Oh Captain, my Captain.ReplyCancel
Perfectly said, JAS. That's how we all should be when our time comes.ReplyCancel
I am so sad. My daughter seemed surprised that I was so upset and I told her what a large part of my childhood he was- Happy Days, Mork and Mindy, and then those movies from my adulthood that I just love – Mrs. Doubtfire, Birdcage, Good Will Hunting, 9 months.
She then told me how sad she was too and listed the movies she loved him in – Dead Poets Society, Flubber, Aladdin, Jumanji, Hook, to name a few. I forgot how many genres he covered, and how many generations were his fans. RIP Robin. You will be missed.ReplyCancel
Just a reminder that each and every one of you has someone who loves you and needs you in their life.

ROBIN & KOKO linkReplyCancel
If he had bipolar disorder, but they medicated him for the depression he was suffering, it could have triggered a manic episode, and he could have thought he was out of it, then gone off the meds, and that's the time, as far as I know, when suicidality can strike hardest. Bipolar is way tricky.ReplyCancel
The thing is, how do you know when you've worked through your problems? When you feel better? That's the trickiest part of mental illness. You want it to be over So Bad, and then it comes up from behind and takes you down. Yes, pump them full of thorazine and they'll live forever. But for a working person trying to live their lives, especially a genius like Williams, it's really hard to stay in a chair. You want autonomy, and when you feel better, you think you know better. It's so much more tricky than "take a pill and you'll be ok."ReplyCancel
Death is easy, for the dead. It is life that is so hard for the living.
Goodnight Mr. Williams…we don't say goodbye – we say "see you later". May Orson snap your rainbow suspenders through the pearly gates. I, for one, will smile through a tear until I can laugh with him in eternity.
The black box warning on SSRI meds expressly contradict your perspective, Profane. I hate that you went through what you did, but science has theorized at length about the variable neurochemistry of people. I tell ya– St. Johns Wort pulled me out of a suicidal depression, but MAOIs are not first-line, and the SSRIs he would have been prescribed have a well-documented window for suicidality.ReplyCancel
Ahhhhh holy shiiiiiiit it's @Himmmm
CDaN levend rides from the dead <3
Watching Jumanji now. Sigh. I don't care how or who it is death is so difficult. I could be more eloquent, but it really is that simple.ReplyCancel
Someone walked by me today with a candy bar and Twizzlers. He said he got Twizzlers "because of Robin Williams." I had not heard that Robin had died, and had no idea what the reference was about, so I thought the polite response to someone making a vague joke I didn't understand would be to laugh. Now that I have found out he died, I feel very bad for laughing (I didn't know!), but what was the Twizzlers reference all about?
All I can find online is Robin telling Jimmy Kimmel that he would buy Twizzlers with the negligible proceeds from doing improv, but it must have been more than that if Random Guy waving Twizzlers in my direction thought he was saying something I should have understood. Was licorice "big" in any of Robin's movies? Did Mork have a thing about licorice?
If only people could really see what they are worth to others….
It's too bad the admiration and praise of family, friends, and strangers can't counteract the internal condemnation of self.
I read the most beautiful comment about depression on this website when a celebrity committed suicide (it might have been L'Wren) but I can't find it. I would like to quote it on a local website. It was something like like "depression will kill you right out in the open with everyone watching". Do you guys know which post I can find that comment on? It moved me and I think it
s important to share.
OMG! Lady H! I remember this. Thank you so much.ReplyCancel
Just a question for the people with expertise, how do you deal with a depressed or bi polar patient who also has or had addiction issues. That has to be a bit of a minefield.ReplyCancel
@Eros well said.
Robin – your legacy lives in the smile that spreads across someone's face when they think of you; in the wonderment that shines from a child's eye as he watches you; from the heartfelt laughter that erupts when one listens to you; from the creative inspiration when one imagines you.
Such a terrible loss – for everyone – of all ages.
I call on those artists who have worked with and been inspired by Robin Williams, to present a special tribute to his work — AND
In honour of Robin and his compassion for others –
Use the event to raise awareness about depression / mental health issues, remove the stigma surrounding it.
RIP Robin! Your desire to make people smile and laugh even in their darkest moments – is compassion personified. You will always live in my memories and I will smile every time I think of you and your work.ReplyCancel
F word.
I didn't see this entry and wrote about him in the other thread.
Bottom line: RIP. You will be remembered as a good person.ReplyCancel

What Dreams May Come was seriously underrated. A must see.ReplyCancel
Thank you for making me smile this morning. I needed this.ReplyCancel
Absolutely heartbroken. When I woke up this morning a saw this news I almost instantly thought "his heart" then I heard it was suicide. Damn dude. We'll never know why but I just hope you're at peace. Dang!!
Favourite RW films, the birdcage, the big white, jumangi, Aladdin and flubbed so sad.
For those of you who read this blog and can make this happen…I just wanted to put this out there:
In honor of the multifaceted performer Robin Williams was, I hope on of the TV or Movie Academies out there considers establishing an award in his name to present to current and future successful and expandable performers such as the one he was.
I don't think there is anyone in this world that does not know his name or has seen his work in one form or another.
Robin Williams truly conquered various genres in his art form with such passion, inspiration and humor, that he deserves life-long recognition. Some of the areas he unleashed his talent on where TV, movies, Broadway, stand-up, animation and music. He also lent his time, energy and persona to charities and military support.
It would be great for future generations to be presented with the 'Robin Williams Award'.
His memory and efforts to make us all laugh, cry or wonder should continue to live on in the form of an amazing tribute. For he was much loved by all ages despite his personal battles with addiction and depression.
I would like to petition this or request it via social media. Won't you make it happen if you can?ReplyCancel
If we ALL petitioned every comedian, actor, director, producer that ever worked with Robin Williams or was inspired by his genius — We can make it happen.
I have already started to post threads on a few movie sites and personally tweeting a few actors — to initiate a special tribute to him. I've sent messages to Forest Whitaker, Ben Stiller, Matt Damon.
I suggest – we each do the same.
What a great way to remember his talent but his compassion as well by coupling the remembering with raising awareness about depression and the stigma that surrounds speaking about it.ReplyCancel
Thank you meme! I also hope others do as you and we can eventually reach someone with the power to do this tribute!ReplyCancel
I met him a few times over the years in San Francisco. Always lovely.
Just yesterday I met a really old man who is a recovering alcoholic, and the subject got around to the Dry Dock on Greenwich Street in SF, and I said I had seen Robin Williams in that area … I thought he went to the Dry Dock where they have 12-step meetings. He used to ride his bike over to Marin and sometimes stop for coffee in my neighborhood.
Anyway, I told the old guy that my very first boyfriend was an alcoholic who killed himself, and he said that a significant percentage of alcoholics and addicts attempt suicide.
This conversation happened at 5 pm. Neither of us knew at the time that Robin Williams had committed suicide earlier yesterday … and yet the subject of Robin Williams, alcoholism and suicide came up in the conversation.
I cannot remember being so affected emotionally by a famous person's death as I am by Robin Williams's death. It's so sad.ReplyCancel
I had to say this as me and not a character, hence the change back to my normal name.
It's been a few days and everyone has said everything under the sun about Robin. From his career to his family to his addictions to his friends to the people he influenced, pretty much everything you can say about a person who lived.
People have been sad, which is a normal response. People have been confused as to why someone with so much could choose to end it all. Some people are angry that he denied them further enjoyment from his work. None of these feelings are wrong, all are right depending on the person.
While I wouldn't consider myself a fan of his later work, Robin's work from the 70's until the mid/late 80's is some of my favorite comedic output ever.
I love comedy (my bad attempts at jokes will show that) and know firsthand that hiding behind jokes is a natural reaction to depression. Why do you think I try to tell so many? "If you aren't laughing, you're crying" as the saying goes.
Whatever you feel from the news of Robin's death is the correct one. Just remember that the sun still rose the day after he was found and it will rise the day after that and that until the end of time. Tragedy plus time equals comedy. We have people making jokes about the Challenger, 9/11 and the Holocaust. Are they in bad taste? To some they are. But if you think about comedy the way Robin did, as long as they are funny and not directly made to hurt a person, then no.
One day, someone will make a joke about Robin's suicide and he'll be looking on from wherever we go after our time here is over, stop his wargame with Jonathan Winters for a moment and laugh his ass off and then probably say "I hope Mencia doesn't steal that one, too!"ReplyCancel
I have to say this, I don't care if you are famous or of you are not famous, if you need someone to talk to I am here, no-one should have to feel so alone that this is the only option – seriously reach out – we are hereReplyCancel
I drove past the Mrs. Doubtfire house the other day and it was like a shrine. There were about 50 people milling about, the front steps were COMPLETELY covered with flowers (I don't know how the residents get in and out, maybe through the garage), and there were inscriptions in chalk in the driveway and on the sidewalk. People were double-parking to get out and leave things and take pictures. It was very touching.ReplyCancel

(The following article was published Dec. 4 by South Africa's Mail & Guardian.)
The mountain kingdom needs a robust, confident media to cover events without fear or favor. But it's unlikely in this polarised society.
By Michael J. Jordan
MASERU, Lesotho - The barbs are flying at me faster, flung by a hostile crowd.
Here I am, the lone Western correspondent in this tiny African kingdom that still feels volatile since the August 30 attempted military coup that sent the nation's prime minister scurrying next door into South Africa.
I am suddenly on trial, as a kangaroo court deals me a harsh lesson – and reveals what a minefield Lesotho is for journalists covering this crisis. Specifically, I'm forced to defend my reporting on the latest, Hollywood-worthy claims: "Lesotho hunts foreign 'mercenaries', fears assassination plot".
A top government official alleged that Nigerian and Ghanaian soldiers-for-hire had slipped into the country, armed to the teeth, to hatch a plot to assassinate Lesotho's leaders – to throw the tiny nation into even deeper crisis and harpoon the February 2015 elections, already moved up two years early by South African Deputy President Cyril Ramaphosa, who is mediating to restore some semblance of "lasting peace" here.
For the "mercenaries" claim, I'd asked two people if there was any clue on the identity of these alleged assassins. Thesele Maseribane, the third leader of the ruling tripartite coalition (who's also the minister of gender and youth, sports and recreation) floated two nationalities: Nigerians and Ghanaians. Then I spoke to the police's assistant commissioner of police, Sello Mosili, who confirmed this. So that's what I reported – their allegations.
Some online media – in Lesotho, too – focused on the nationalities. Even worse, one weekly here turned my story's allegation into their story's fact: "Police hunt Nigerian, Ghanaian mercenaries."
That sensationalist twist unfortunately sparked anxiety among the hundreds of Nigerians and Ghanaians living in Lesotho. They say it's led to unkind comments from Basotho and feeling threatened on the streets.

I first smelled this fragrance at one of the stores in Florida, I wanted to purchase it them, however I did not want to pay the high price of $280 - when I looked on this site and found it for way less, I was so happy to puchase it. I sprayed a little of it on and was taken away by the scent. My brother in law told my sister right away she needed to purchase this fragrance. It is one of my top 10 now. I love it!!

The search company's ads break the sound barrier.
Google is testing a pay-per-call feature in ads appearing on its search engine results pages.
Some searchers have begun to see a phone icon next to the company's sponsored listings. By clicking on the icon, they can enter a phone number and click a "Connect for Free" button to be linked up to the other party.
Google's system first calls the search user, then dials the merchant and makes the connection.
The company details the offering in a FAQ item on its site. In its description, Google tries to head off privacy concerns, saying it will store a person's phone number and call information for less than four months.
"We won't share your telephone number with anyone, including the advertiser," according to the FAQ. "When you're connected with the advertiser, your number is blocked so the advertiser can't see it. In addition, we'll delete the number from our servers after a short period of time."
It's not clear whether advertisers in the test are paying for the service, whether it's in the U.S. only, or what the bidding/pricing structure for leads it generates will eventually be.
Reached for comment, Google confirmed it is conducting "limited tests" of a pay-per-call model, but declined to give more information.
Blogger and tech consultant Greg Yardley was among the first to spot the feature, and he's posted some screen captures on his blog. Tests appeared on search results for the query "refinance," a keyword likely to attract advertisers that would highly prize phone leads.
Presuming it receives a wide roll-out, the Google service will be a formidable competitor to existing providers of pay-per-call technology, including Ingenio, eStara, VoiceStar and Jambo.
Pay-per-call is widely thought to be a powerful local marketing channel in the making. A JupiterResearch study found almost half of small businesses are receptive to pay-per-call online advertising. Kelsey Group, meanwhile, predicted the pay-per-call market will grow to between $1.4 and $4 billion by 2009.

The Department of Homeland Security will make managed cybersecurity services available for all 56 U.S. state and territorial governments this week, said Phyllis Schneck, deputy undersecretary for cybersecurity.
Schneck, deputy undersecretary for cybersecurity at DHS, said in a Feb. 27 blog post that the department was set to provide the security services in conjunction with the adoption of the National Institute of Standards and Technology cybersecurity framework.
DHS will work with the Center for Internet Security Multi-State Information Sharing and Analysis Center (MS-ISAC) to provide intrusion detection and prevention, netflow analysis and firewall monitoring to states and territories -- at no cost to the recipients, Schneck wrote.
On Feb. 12, the day the White House rolled out the final "version 1.0" framework edition, Schneck said DHS would be unveiling complementary efforts to strengthen voluntary cybersecurity programs and government incentives as it was adopted.
The managed services for states and territories is part of her agency's Critical Infrastructure Cyber Community (C3) Voluntary Program, which serves as the coordination point in the federal government to leverage and enhance existing capabilities and resources to promote adoption of the framework.
"This is just one of many steps we are taking to further our collaboration with partners across the country on this important issue," Schneck wrote in her post. "Moving forward, DHS and the MS-ISAC will seek feedback and requirements from the states and territories and tailor technical assistance and best practice documents to meet their needs."

Utilizing Instantaneous Direct-to-Reverberant Ratio in Parametric Spatial Audio Coding
Scenarios with multiple simultaneous sources in an acoustically dry room may be challenging for parametric spatial sound reproduction techniques, such as directional audio coding (DirAC). It has been found that the decorrelation process used in the reproduction causes a perception of added reverberation. A model for DirAC reproduction is suggested in this paper, which utilizes estimation of instantaneous direct-to-reverberant ratio. The sound is divided into reverberant and non-reverberant parts using this ratio, and decorrelation is applied only for the reverberant part. The results of formal listening tests are presented that show that perceptually good audio quality can be obtained using this approach for both dry and reverberant scenarios.

Going to Tehran: Why the United States Must Come to Terms with the Islamic Republic of Iranby Flynt Leverett
Synopses & Reviews
Publisher Comments:
An eye-opening argument for a new approach to Iran, from two of America's most informed and influential Middle East experts
Less than a decade after Washington endorsed a fraudulent case for invading Iraq, similarly misinformed and politically motivated claims are pushing America toward war with Iran. Today the stakes are even higher: such a war could break the back of America's strained superpower status. Challenging the daily clamor of U.S. saber rattling, Flynt and Hillary Mann Leverett argue that America should renounce thirty years of failed strategy and engage with Iran—just as Nixon revolutionized U.S. foreign policy by going to Beijing and realigning relations with China.
Former analysts in both the Bush and Clinton administrations, the Leveretts offer a uniquely informed account of Iran as it actually is today, not as many have caricatured it or wished it to be. They show that Iran's political order is not on the verge of collapse, that most Iranians still support the Islamic Republic, and that Iran's regional influence makes it critical to progress in the Middle East. Drawing on years of research and access to high-level officials, Going to Tehran explains how Iran sees the world and why its approach to foreign policy is hardly the irrational behavior of a rogue nation.
A bold call for new thinking, the Leveretts' indispensable work makes it clear that America must "go to Tehran" if it is to avert strategic catastrophe.
"As the war of words over Iran's nuclear ambitions threatens to spiral into violent conflict, objective analysis of the Islamic Republic's policies, intentions, and capabilities has never been more necessary — or more difficult to find. The Leveretts, who since leaving government service have become increasingly enthusiastic proselytizers on behalf of Tehran, offer an analysis, but not one easily classified as objective. Fashioning their latest polemic as a shot across the bow of the prevailing orthodoxy regarding 'the most critical country in the world's most critical region,' they call for a reset in relations and substantial engagement rather than saber-rattling and sanctions. Although some of their points are well-taken, they cast every assertion by an Iranian official in glowing terms — Ahmedinejad, they say, could not possibly be seeking nuclear weapons, since, in his view, they violate Islamic morality. They accuse the American government of 'shameless duplicity' but their celebration of Iran's 'significant progress toward the integration of Islamic governance and participatory politics' obfuscates the difficulties standing in the way of rapprochement.

Odor in Master Bathroom
We have a puzzling odor in our master bath. The odor only occurs in the evening, and when it occurs it is almost always between 8:30 and 10:00 PM. We have never experienced the odor during the day and the odor does not appear to be related to our showering/bathing schedules, etc. The house is a single story on a concrete slab in AZ. The bath has two vanity sinks, a tub, separate shower, and stool. So far I have ensured all the traps are wet, I have sealed off all the drains and overflows with duct tape or left water in the sinks, I have checked the plumbing vent on the roof for obstruction, I have crawled into the attic to check for something dead. I have inspected my exhaust fan ducting to look for a birds nest, and I even sealed off the exhaust fan housing on the off-chance that my AC units may be creating a negative pressure in the house allowing sewer gas from the plumbing vent on the roof to sneak back through my exhaust vent. All of the above has been to no avail. Has anyone got any ideas that I have overlooked, or suggestions on resources to help find the culprit. I'm out of ideas, and my wife has moved into the guest bedroom.
We've had similar experiences in several homes, but our findings/solutions won't necessarily be right for you.
In house one, the problem was found to be an errant screw. The screw was from a light fixture installation over a sink, which punctured the vent stack, allowing sewer gas to escape. The builder tried at least half a dozen different fixes (including tearing up our shower) before considering that.
In two other homes, a definitive cause was never found. We had air vents cleaned, sprayed them with disinfectant, etc., after checking everything plumbing related. One builder even paid to have a plumber run a camera scope through the pipes to see if there was hidden damage (that house was also on slab.) Nothing. I bought Roto-Rooter's Pipe Shield and began using it weekly in the master bathroom. The odor disappeared, but I cannot swear that the Pipe Shield did the trick.
At our current house, a plumber suggested that I pour a little mineral oil into each drain, especially the jacuzzi tub that we rarely used. He said it would help prevent the water in the trap from evaporating quickly in dry weather (or when the A/C ran non-stop in the summer.) I now use Biokleen Bac-Out in all drains once a month, too.
Good luck! I understand the frustration your problem causes.
Thanks for the replies. The house is 12 years old, but this is not the first time we have had the problem. Previously we thought we were negligent in keeping the traps wet in a seldom used tub and shower, although I could never prove this conclusively, and the odor always eventually disappeared. This time the problem is much more persistent and obnoxious. Unfortunately getting to the vent pipe in the attic is a real problem because of the low ceiling/roof clearance in this alcove area and the maze of ductwork restricting access. Would a camera inspection inside the vent pipe be a suggestion for checking the joint connections, or could a pressure check be done on the vent plumbing? The mineral oil in the traps and the Bioklean suggestiona are good ones and we will try them. Maybe the evaporation issue is the culprit because we only have the problem in the summer when the AC is running, but I am still really confused by why the odor ONLY occurs in the evening. Thanks.
We have two furnace/AC units. Gas forced air furnaces with AC using same ductwork. The blowers are dual speed with the higher speed mostly used for cooling. As mentioned in earlier post we have never experienced the odor except during the summer. However, the odor has occurred when the AC has not been in use and no blowers were on.
Thanks for the reply. This is not a rotten egg smell as would be the case with a natural gas leak, and the gas line and regulator are on the far side of the house from this bathroom area. I'm pretty convinced this is a plumbing vent problem, but am puzzled by its "scheduled" occurences. Only appearing in the evening. I asked in an earlier post whether it is possible to do a pressure check on the vent lines but no-one has responded to this question. Any other suggestions out there?
Pressure testing is typically done before plumbing fixtures are set in place. In order to test an existing system, I believe you would have to pull each fixture and place a test plug at each opening, then you can test the entire system. I don't know of any other way.
"Pressure testing is typically done before plumbing fixtures are set in place. In order to test an existing system, I believe you would have to pull each fixture and place a test plug at each opening, then you can test the entire system. I don't know of any other way."
Plus, you would have to somehow plug the connection to the sewer. Typically, pressure testing is done before the permit to connect to the sewer is approved. I don't know, maybe an inflatable bladder on a line snake, sent down past the last wye connection to the main sewer line. I don't think it is a good idea to separate the pipes.
Thanks for the replies on the pressure check question. I currently have all the drains and overflows blocked off in this bathroom. I also have the exhaust vent sealed off in case gas from the plumbing vent is finding its way back inside through the near-by exhaust vent. These steps have almost eliminated the odor in the house. We had one evening with a slight smell inside, plus a stronger (same) smell outside the house. I'm giving it a few more days and then I will start un-blocking things one-at-a-time to see if I can locate the source.
Just a thought...considering the consistency of time of day which also corresponds with cooling of the air. Is it possible the cooler and heavier air is causing the vented gases to drop and follow the roof line and find it's way back into the house, perhaps through the vent or eaves? You said you had the vent sealed off, how about sealing from the outside too. Also, temporarily extend the sewer vent higher on the roof.
How about a neighbors proximity, could their vent gases be heading your way? If you live near or down wind from the sewage treatment plant or pumping station, it's odors cold drop lower in the evening and drift your way. This happens a lot in areas that do not properly pump and treat their sewage.
Perhaps the odor is getting into the house in a diluted manner and the chimney effect of the bathroom exhaust vent draws it into the bathroom in a more concentrated manner.
If you use gas, it's possible you are getting a down draft through the exhaust chimney from the cooler air and it concentrates into the bathroom.
What effect does the bathroom fan have on eliminating the odor and if it does, is it a long term effect? The exhaust gases from burning LP does have a similar odor as sewage gas. Also check your toilet to see if it fits loose to the flange, allowing gases to escape into the room. Check your drain pipe, at and anywhere after the traps under the sink and tub also.
Just trying to determine if the problem is indeed in the bathroom and not somewhere else and then concentrating in the bathroom.
Thanks maryland irisman. You're on the same trail I'm on. I strongly suspect we're getting a back-draft effect down through the exhaust vent. When I disassembled the exhaust fan housing a couple weeks ago I noticed the "el-cheapo" plastic flapper didn't seem to be closing properly. That's what led me to seal off this exhaust vent. Also, when I went up on the roof to inspect the vents for bird nests, etc., I did notice the odor right at the eave just below where the plumbing vent exits the roof. This plumbing vent is about 2 feet further up the roof from my exhaust vent....so if the lower evening temp could be allowing sewer gas to drop down toward the exhaust vent housing maybe that's where the odor is getting into the house. I am about ready to start unsealing my drains, overflows, etc. Once I am able to determine the exhaust vent is the culprit I will experiment with raising the plumbing vent stack. Thanks for your help, and I'll post the results.
Any update to this? I am having a similar problem, but I believe the source is my shower drain.

Sikhs exempted from using it
Tirupur: Helmet wearing will be made compulsory for motorbike/pillion riders in areas within the Tirupur Corporation and in all the six municipalities in the district from January 1, according to Superintendent of Police A Arun.
"Those who violate the rule will be fined," he warned. However, Sikhs were exempted from wearing helmets.
Mr. Arun was speaking to reporters after assuming charge as the second SP of the district and the first Indian Police Service (IPS) officer to hold the post, here on Sunday.
Mr. Arun said that he would give topmost priority to bring down the high crime rate in the district besides chalking out an action plan to ease traffic congestion in the city.
Belonging to 1998 IPS batch, Mr. Arun started his career as Assistant Superintendent of Police (ASP) at Nanguneri after completing the courses at Lal Bahadur Shashtri National Academy of Administration, Mussouri, and Sardar Vallabhabhai Patel National Police Academy, Shivaramapalli (Andhra Pradesh), and field training in Tirunelveli sub-division.
On promotion, he then served as SP in Karur and Kanyakumari districts, as Deputy Police Commissioner at Anna Nagar and St Thomas Mount in Chennai, and as SP in CB-CID, Chennai, before taking over as SP (Tirupur).
Public contact
Mr. Arun has appealed to the public to contact him either through telephone (0421-2480033) or in person any time on the day, to address their grievances.
Earlier, in the day, Erode SP Jayachandran, who was holding the additional charge of Tirupur, handed over the duties to Mr. Arun at a function held in the District Police Office.

2015 Indianapolis Colts Tickets – Class of the AFC South
Indianapolis Colts tickets are the class of the AFC South and possibly the entire NFL. The Colts have been on a winning run since Peyton Manning began his Hall of fame career. Indianapolis hasn't missed the NFL Playoffs in eight years and they've been putting together double digit winning season for almost a decade. In the meantime Peyton Manning has been NFL MVP four times and he's made careers for more than one NFL wide receiver. The Colts have been to the Super Bowl twice and brought home the Lombardi Trophy to Lucas Oil Stadium once. It looks like there's going to be plenty more success in the future. The winning formula is in place in Indianapolis, and as long as Manning stays upright the Colts will be playoff contenders. Winning the Super Bowl is always a possibility for the Colts and the 2015 NFL season is no exception. The Colts will be facing some heavy competition in the AFC South from the Houston Texans and a Tennessee Titans team that finished strong. Get geared up for another winning run with Indianapolis Colts tickets.
2010 Indianapolis Colts Tickets – The Offense
The Colts have undergone some changes for 2010. New Offensive coordinator Clyde Christensen won't change much on the Colts offense. Rely on Manning picking apart defenses with quick passes and exploiting secondaries with the deep pass. What you might see is the Colts making a commitment to being able to run the ball. This will probably take the form of a new blocking scheme and better offensive line play than a personnel change. Joseph Addai has proven himself a reliable runner and pass receiver and will continue to flourish in the system while Donald Brown brings a nice change of pace and a little more power and speed.
In the passing game Reggie Wayne is the undisputed king of receivers, delivering six straight 1,000 yard seasons. A big play chemistry with Peyton Manning makes Wayne a threat from anywhere on the field. But it's his workmanlike attitude and ability to move the chains that makes him special. A full year under the belts for Austin Collie and Pierre Garcon means they'll be even more productive in 2010. Like always, Dallas Clark provides Manning an outlet and a threat across the middle.
2010 Indianapolis Colts Tickets – The Defense
Larry Coyer heads into his second year as Defensive Coordinator for the Colts. In his first season Coyer began a process of turning his unit into a more aggressive weapon, using a variety of packages and more blitzing. He can do that with Dwight Freeney and Robert Mathis both playing at a Pro Bowl level. Coyer added to his line with Jerry Hughes, a defensive end from TCU. Behind them, Gary Brackett and Clint anchor a fast and hard hitting linebacker group. 2nd Round pick Pat Angerer should fit in somewhere. When you hit the secondary one thing becomes obvious: If Bob Sanders is healthy the Colts will be just fine.

Posted July 27, 2004
For those who like their mystery delivered with a light touch, Mary Daheim's back with the 20th in her highly readable Bed and Breakfast series. Of course, protagonists are the deft and daffy pseudo detective cousins Judith and Renie. As an interesting aside, author Daheim has said that she bases her characters on family members. Guess who Renie is? That's right, Mary herself. And Judith is based on Mary's cousin Judy. At last report all relations have a great sense of humor and enjoy seeing what this writer will come up with next - as do readers. With This Old Souse Renie returns to her former neighborhood in Seattle and B & B hostess Judith. As women will, the two began talking about anything and everything when the subject of an old, rather creepy Spanish villa came up. It seems the manse on Moonfleet Street has been abandoned, vacant for many years. They remember it from high school days; why not pop over there and see how it looks now. Much to their surprise, despite its appearance, the house has been lived in since the mid 1940s by a family, the Blands - Dick and Jane and her unmarried sister, Sally. The inquisitive pair find out more from a friendly, voluble milkman who tells them he's been delivering milk there for ages. The mailman can't contribute much to this puzzle as he's never seen the family. Their groceries are delivered, and they pay all their bills in cash which is left in the milk box. This is more than enough to pique the girls' interest, but they decide the Blands are simply eccentric - that is until Judith opens her car trunk to find a dead body. The recently departed? The milkman. Now, things are more than serious, they're sinister. As they begin to investigate further Judith and Renie find that the Blands may be more than they an handle. As always, Mary Daheim keeps readers laughing and guessing until the last page. - Gail CookeWas this review helpful? Yes NoThank you for your feedback.

The house seems deserted, is it?
Judith¿s cousin Renie asks her to accompany her to her old neighborhood. She wants to take a look at an old house on Moonfleet that has always intrigued her. It has always seemed deserted. Judith¿s husband Joe is out of town and she can get away from her Bed & Breakfast for a little while, she agrees. When they arrive, they run into an old mailman that Renie had run ins with years ago. They learn that the house isn¿t deserted. People do live there. They get mail, milk and packages delivered. The milkman tells them that Dick and Jane Bland, along with Jane¿s spinster sister, Sally, live there. Judith comes back alone one day to get a better look. She parks her car in the alley behind on the house and gets out. She finds out that they get one UPS package a year from Austria. Finally she goes on with her errands. At the grocery store, she opens the car trunk to load her bags and finds the dead milkman from the Moonfleet house. Of course, she is a suspect. Her car is impounded. Renie comes to pick her up. On top of all this, Judith¿s son Mike and his wife Kristen have split up. Neither Joe nor Judith can understand this. Mike and their two boys go to stay with Uncle Al until Kristin can get her stuff out and head to her parents¿. Judith and Renie must uncover the truth before Joe returns. They end up getting themselves into much hot water before they can sort everything out. The author has done a fabulous job of creating these characters. All of them are terrific. I love reading books in this series. They are entertaining and there is always a good mystery for them to unravel! I highly recommend this book and series.Was this review helpful?

Great and funny romance
The owner of the popular bed and breakfast Hillside Manor, Judith McMonigle Flynn is having a nice day when her cousin Renie asks her to go to the old neighborhood to see Moonfleet, a beautifully looking home badly in need of repairs. The owners of the home have lived there for over five decades but nobody has ever really talked to them. They keep to themselves and have their food delivered. Their sister Sally lives with them but she is as reclusive as they are.................................. While casing the premises, Judith and Renie meet the dairy man who tells them he never sees the occupants of Moonfleet. A UPS truck delivers a package to them leaving it outside their home. He tells the cousins that once a year on the same date the package is delivered to that address. When Judith goes shopping, she finds the murdered body of the dairy man in the trunk of her car. The mystery surrounding Moonfleet becomes very personal to the cousins so they seek answers................................ The latest Bed-and-Breakfast mystery is a great amateur sleuth story due mainly to the heroine. She has to keep her husband from finding out about her investigation, find her lost precious cat and cope with the marital woes of her son and her daughter in law while solving a mystery. This is a fabulous book in a fantastic mystery series. Mary Daheim deserves a career achievement award for her continuous high quality and unique originality.................................
