Expert: Setbacks don't 'bode well'
EAGLE, Colo. -- Kobe Bryant has one more date in court before jury selection begins in his sexual assault trial. Some are wondering if it will be the last time he steps into a criminal courtroom.
With the trial less than two weeks away, speculation is mounting that prosecutors are looking for a way to dismiss the charge after suffering a series of setbacks.
"We have too many things happening in this case that we just don't normally have," said Larry Pozner, former president of the National Association of Criminal Defense Lawyers. "The big picture? None of this bodes well for the prosecution."
People connected with the case are barred from commenting in detail, but district attorney's spokeswoman Krista Flannigan has said prosecutors still plan to try Bryant, who acknowledges having sex with a then 19-year-old hotel employee last summer but insists she consented.
During a closed-court hearing Monday, prosecutors were scheduled to ask District Judge Terry Ruckriegle to reconsider his decision allowing the defense to tell jurors about money the accuser received from a victims' compensation fund.
The defense has indicated it plans to tell jurors that the woman was given nearly $20,000, far more than usual, for mental health care and other services. Details of their argument were filed under seal.
The judge's decision could bolster the defense's efforts to undermine the woman's credibility. Defense attorney Pamela Mackey said in a filing the woman's decision to sue Bryant last week in federal civil court had the effect of "exposing her motivation to pursue her false accusation -- the hope of a large monetary award."
Among the recent setbacks for prosecutors:
In the transcripts, a defense expert witness explained why she believed DNA evidence indicated the alleged victim had sex with another man after her encounter with Bryant but before her hospital exam the following day. The defense has suggested it would make that argument to undermine the accuser's credibility.
The woman's attorney denied the claim, but prosecutors said release of the transcript threw into question whether a fair jury could be seated.
Prosecutors are still waiting to hear from the Colorado Supreme Court whether justices will consider their appeal of Ruckriegle's ruling allowing Bryant's attorneys to present evidence about the woman's sexual activities in the three days surrounding her encounter with Bryant.
Legal experts said the ruling on the woman's mental health history could help encourage her to continue participating in the criminal case by keeping potentially embarrassing information out of public view.
If convicted, the 25-year-old Los Angeles Lakers guard faces four years to life in prison or 20 years to life on probation, and a fine up to $750,000.

Some types of everyday household glues, such as Gorilla Glue, can be hazardous to the health of our pets and expensive to treat if the container is accidentally punctured by a pet and ingested.
According to Pet Proofing Your House: Part 2 | petMD, swallowed glue expands quickly in the stomach and requires surgical removal. Just one ounce of glue may expand to the size of a basketball. Keep any glue out of reach from your pets and babies.
Many of us store our cat and dog food in various spots in our kitchens and pantries, often in the sacks they are sold in. These Vittles Vault Stackables are the perfect one-stop storage solution for pet food in multi-pet households.
These are space-efficient, stackable pet food containers for cats and dogs with wide openings for pet scooping, but closing airtight against hungry pets and invasive pests. Available in 30 lb size up to 80 lbs.
Check your home for any dried chicken jerky products, intended for dogs, that are imported from China. They may also be sold as tenders, strips or treats and are on alert from the FDA as causing kidney and liver problems.
Our local vet here has one dog in the hospital now being treated after eating Waggin Train (WT) Chicken Kabobs. Signs of toxicity include vomiting, lethargy, and anorexia.
All this balmy weather has got us planning road trips. And since we go nowhere without our best buddies, we need a pet crate that has it all. This pop-up Midwest Canine Camper Day Tripper is a portable soft-sided dog crate in a trendy style for all pets.
This durable carrier is water-resistant with a flat-top design, a carrying handle and lock strap. Its mesh windows on all four sides allow good visibility and ventilation for our pets.
It sets up in seconds with no poles, bars, straps or tools required.
Speaking of bloat, as we were the other day, a major contributing factor is the tendency of the dog to "wolf" down their food. This Dog Maze Food Bowl should slow them down a bit. Just wind their food around the tracks at mealtime and let them solve the puzzle on their own. Comes with a non-skid base and is available in three colors:

Did you know there is an art gallery in New York dedicated exclusively to dog art? William Secord is the world authority on 19th century dog painting, and his gallery of dog art and collectibles, the William Secord Gallery located on Manhattan's upper east side was established in 1990. Mr. Secord is also the founding director of the American Kennel Club Museum of the Dog, which was originally established in New York but is now located in St. Louis.

Perhaps your dog is underfoot during meal-time, pushing his/her food bowl around the room and and slopping food and water on the floor around the bowl. This hack can solve that problem.
Take a cheap $8 IKEA Lack Side Table to house your dog's food and water bowls and make sure they stay in one place. Measure the cuts in the top for your bowls, then use a Dremel to cut the holes so that the bowls can be easily placed in and out of the table.
One caveat to keep in mind--raised food bowls may contribute to the serious condition of bloat, or gastric dilation.

A happy and healthy pet drinks plenty of fresh clean water. It is sad to see the stale, warm, bacteria-laden water that pets must drink in pet stores. If they drink it at all, filthy water can actually make them sick.
The FroBo Cooling Pet Bowl provides your pet with a constant reservoir of cool, clean water. The FroBo keeps your pets' water cold and fresh for eight hours or longer. Its non-toxic gel core freezes in two hours and lasts longer than ice.
The bowl is compact and chew-resistant with a slide-proof base. Supplemental FroBo bowls are available so pet owners can have a frozen bowl on-hand at all times. Something to definitely have on hand this summer.

In our house, probably the most exciting thing you can say is "squirrel". Or more accurately, "SQUIRREL!!!" Due to the seed on the ground from the bird feeders in the back yard, we have plenty of them around for fun chasing.
This Doggles Squirrel PentaPulls Dog Toy is a tough tug toy with squeakers in its legs and tail to provide some entertainment once the real squirrels have run away.

Winnipeg Free Press - PRINT EDITION
Fired environmentalist sees conspiracy
A B.C. environmentalist claims in a sworn affidavit the Harper government labelled him and his organization, ForestEthics, an "enemy of the government of Canada" and an "enemy of the people of Canada" and threatened to pull the charitable status of its funder, the Tides Canada Foundation, because of ForestEthics' opposition to the Northern Gateway pipeline and tanker project exporting tarsands oil to China.
Tides Canada is a major social-policy and environmental organization tackling poverty, climate change and social justice issues. Vancouver Mayor Gregor Robertson is a former board member.
After his affidavit went public, Andrew Frank was fired as senior communications officer for ForestEthics, one of the nearly 40 environmental organizations Tides Canada supports.
Three days after Frank's affidavit and letter went online, his colleague, ForestEthics co-founder Valerie Langer, issued this statement:
"While a spokesman for the Prime Minister's Office denied using this language, he refused to comment when asked whether ForestEthics was targeted by the government. ForestEthics was targeted by the government. There's good reason they wouldn't comment. It's true."
The Prime Minister's Office and Tides Canada president Ross McMillan have refuted Frank's claims. PMO press secretary Andrew MacDougall issued an email saying the government "denies making any of the statements alleged in the reports."
McMillan says Frank was not present at the Nov. 15 meeting where the alleged accusations were made and his descriptions of the meeting were "inaccurate."
Here's a portion of Frank's Jan. 22 affidavit and "Open Letter to the Citizens of Canada" to "expose the undemocratic and potentially illegal pressure the Harper government has apparently applied to silence critics of the Enbridge Northern Gateway oil tanker and pipeline plan.
"As I have detailed in a sworn affidavit, no less than three senior managers with Tides Canada and ForestEthics... have informed me that the PMO considers Forest Ethics an 'enemy of the government of Canada' and an 'enemy of the people of Canada.'
"This language was apparently part of a threat by the Prime Minister's Office to challenge the charitable status of Tides Canada if it did not agree to stop funding ForestEthics... This is especially concerning because ForestEthics is a legally registered intervenor in the National Energy Board's Joint Review Panel process. By attempting to silence a registered participant in the review, I fear the Harper government may have permanently damaged the integrity of this process...
"The language of anti-terrorism, when applied to Canadian citizens who legitimately question the wisdom of an unsustainable oil tanker (and) pipeline plan, is an affront to the rights of all Canadians. It is the language of bullying. It is language that is violent and above the law... The casual use of such loaded language at the top of our government is immoral, unethical and probably illegal."
Frank's letter and affidavit had 60,000 hits by Jan. 29.
Governments have used intimidation tactics against environmental and social activist organizations before.
The Globe and Mail reports that in 1997, then-B.C. premier Glen Clark called Greenpeace members "enemies of British Columbia" and "eco-terrorists."
It also quotes Dogwood Initiative director Will Horter warning that Canadian and American governments have accused environmental groups of treason five times and such overheated rhetoric from government is frequently followed by real violence. "Three of those five times, people got beat up," Horter said.
The environmental movement now has a new worry. The Harper government has announced a major overhaul of its charitable-status rules. Today, charities are only allowed to spend 10 per cent of their budgets on non-partisan political activities or advocacy. Now, the social justice and environmental community fears even that could be eliminated. Frank believes this fear is why he was fired.
Sierra Club of Canada executive director John Bennett told Vancouver Observer Magazine Jan. 26 tensions between environmental groups and governments are nothing new but the Harper Conservatives have raised them to a whole new level.
He calls the current situation "McCarthyesque... a scary time for Canadian democracy. These are all tactics that have been developed in the U.S. by the Republican party as a way of creating politics of division because they've discovered that if you divide people then you can win office."
Bennett says there's now a new wrinkle, creating "pretend" grassroots organizations like Ethical Oil. "They test the lines with these surrogate organizations and then the politicians start to repeat them."
The Harper government has announced plans to "streamline" environmental reviews of major resource projects and repeatedly claims opposition to them is the work of "foreign-backed radicals."

If heavily compacted or clay soil and thatch are choking the life out of your lawn, then the Brinly 48" plug aerator can be the solution. Plug aeration involves removing 2-3" "plugs" of soil from a lawn to reduce soil compaction and allow air, water, and nutrients to get to the lawn's root system. The soil "plugs" are left on the lawn to dissolve and return vital nutrients back into the lawn to promote healthy growth. Use a plug aerator to aerate in the spring and fall in your lawn's high-traffic areas for a yard like a pro!
Features and BenefitsLearn More
1. Large 48" working width and (32) heavy duty plug spoons help aerate large yards quickly
2. Durable steel tray holds up to 150 lbs. of extra weight for proper soil penetration
3. (4) independently rotating plug spoon sections ensure proper aeration on uneven terrain

However, that was just the start- I saw two separate cars that had run off the side of the roads with front-end damage, and the next big one involved a truck that had jack-knifed on a slight bend and was obstructing most of the road, which was located on a cliff face.

A little country twang in the big city
Open the scruffy front door of a drab-looking corner tavern in Chicago on Friday evenings and suddenly you're in Texas, greeted by the rowdy twang of a genuine honky tonk band. Cowboy-booted couples of all ages two-step around the dimly lit scuffed wooden dance floor to the likes of Willie Nelson, Hank Williams, or one of the band's own drinking songs. If I'm Not Drunk, I'm Not Drinking Today is a crowd favorite.
In a city better known for the rarified sounds of a world-class symphony and legendary jazz and blues, there's a lively but almost hidden country music scene in Chicago.
This isn't the Nashville top 40 or overproduced pablum that you hear on commercial radio, or pay top-dollar to see in cavernous arenas. It's more old-timey country music, from honky-tonk to Rockabilly and Western Swing, and it's being resurrected by talented local bands like the five-man Hoyle Brothers, in otherwise nondescript venues like the Empty Bottle on Chicago's Western Avenue.
Sometimes there's a nominal cover charge, but for some gigs, like the Hoyle Brothers' Honky-Tonk Happy Hour, the music costs no more than whatever you feel like putting in the tip jar.
The Hoyles, not really brothers, have been playing at the Empty Bottle for 10 years, the last five or so with Texas-born lead singer, songwriter and acoustic guitarist Trevor McSpadden, a handsome young crooner whose deep mellow voice sounds made for the old tunes.
"I was surprised people were into it up here," McSpadden said before a recent gig. The band regularly attracts a good mix of tattooed hipsters, middle-aged professionals and gray-haired suburbanites, all drawn to the down-home sound.
The Bottle, on the edge of an old Ukrainian neighborhood, is better known for avant-garde late-night bands, but the stalwart honky-tonk crowd has become a Friday night staple — McSpadden calls it almost like a weekly family reunion.
"Chicago is a host to a number of different types of music, and it's there for the taking and it's there if you look for it," said the Empty Bottle's self-described "head cheese," Bruce Finkelman.
On a recent Friday, a visitor from Naperville, a far western suburb, walked into the Bottle for the first time and commented, beaming, `Wow, you could walk right by this place and never know it existed."
Same goes for Simon's, a divey tavern in trendy Andersonville five miles to the north, where you'll find another band popular among Chicago's country cognoscenti, the Western Elstons. Every other Wednesday night, they play a brand of Western swing so smooth and catchy that dancers somehow find room to twirl in the bar's narrow aisle.
A few blocks to the south, on a more working-class stretch of Clark Street, you could easily miss 40-year-old Carol's Pub, the granny of the city's country music scene. A little worn at the edges, Carol's still serves up pitchers of PBR and live country music four nights a week.
The Hideout is another hidden music gem, tucked away on an almost abandoned-looking side street in an old factory neighborhood northwest of downtown. A homey tavern with a back-room hall that resembles a North Woods rec room, the Hideout features an eclectic blend of live bands several nights a week, sometimes even acts known outside of Chicago, including local songwriter-guitarist Robbie Fulks, whose schticks include hillbilly country and bluegrass. Neko Case has played there; so have the Waco Brothers and local honky-tonk favorite, the Lawrence Peters Outfit.
About two miles west, the California Clipper features music and dancing Friday and Saturday nights in a 1930s-cocktail-lounge setting; good bets are local rockabilly or honky-tonk acts including The Possum Hollow Boys, Cropduster and the Black Willoughbys.

'Flash': Grant Gustin's Suit Revealed in First Image From 'Arrow' Spinoff (Photo)
The "Glee" alum stars as Barry Allen/The Flash in the comic-inspired project from Warner Bros. TV.
Anticipation has been building for The CW's Arrow spinoff The Flash, and, like clockwork, the first official image from the comic book drama pilot has been released.
In the photo below, a smiling Grant Gustin dons the red Flash suit, marking the first time this iteration of Barry Allen has been seen in superhero form. And like Green Arrow's suit, the Flash has a gritty feel to it. Though the full-body suit has yet to be revealed, the image offers a good preview of the tone for the pilot and potential series.
The Flash costume was designed by Oscar-winning costume designer Colleen Atwood, who also helped design the look of the Arrow. Production on the pilot begins next week.
PHOTOS: 2014's New Broadcast and Cable TV Shows
The CW and WBTV made a similar move last March by debuting first looks for high-profile drama pilots based on properties with built-in audiences: Arrow and Sex and the City prequel The Carrie Diaries. While both shows have surpassed the two-season mark (with Arrow already renewed for a third), the strategy of keeping public interest levels high doesn't always pay off. Case in point: NBC's 2011 reinterpretation of Wonder Woman, which drew criticism.
Flash serves as an origin story similar in vein to Arrow. Barry (Gustin) -- introduced in Arrow's two-part winter finale in December -- is a Central City assistant police forensic investigator who visits Starling City to look into a series of unexplained robberies that may have a connection to a tragedy in his past. Through a freak accident, he is given the power of super speed that transforms him into the fastest man alive.
PHOTOS: The Faces of Pilot Season 2014
Joining Gustin in the main cast are John Wesley Shipp (aka the original Barry Allen from the '90s series); Tom Cavanagh as physics "rock star" Harrison Wells; Jesse L. Martin as Detective West; Candice Patton as West's daughter and Barry's love interest Iris; Danielle Panabaker as Caitlin Snow, a bioengineering expert; Carlos Valdes as mechanical engineering expert Cisco Ramon; and Rick Cosnett as Detective Eddie Thawne.
Arrow's Greg Berlanti, Andrew Kreisberg and director David Nutter are executive producers on the eyed spinoff. Berlanti, Kreisberg and DC Entertainment's Geoff Johns wrote the pilot script, with Nutter directing. Melissa Kellner Berman serves as co-executive producer.

Addressing members of a consultative committee attached to the Urban Development Ministry to deliberate on Delhi Metro Rail Corporation, Union Minister Jaipal Reddy described the Delhi Metro as the "proudest achievement of modern India".
Mr. Reddy said the Ministry has taken some decisions related to urban transport in order to help daily commuters and ease traffic congestion. He said the Metro Railway Amendment Act, 2009, has been enacted to amend the Metro Railways (Construction of Works) Act, 1978, and the Delhi Metro (Operation and Maintenance) Act, 2002. These Acts can now be extended to all million plus cities in India.
The Minister said for the sake of standardisation and uniformity in safety certification, it has been decided that all metro rail projects, whether within one municipal area or beyond, shall be taken up only under these Central Acts. These Acts now stand extended to the complete National Capital Region, metropolitan areas of Mumbai, Bangalore and Chennai.
Referring to the expansion of the metro to several States across the country, he said the Union Cabinet has approved the Chennai Metro rail with a total cost of Rs.14,600 crore to be taken up as a joint venture between the Central Government and the Government of Tamil Nadu. As for the Bangalore Metro Rail Project, the Minister said the Union Government had sanctioned an extension of 9.3 km.
The Minister expressed hope that the metro's extension to Noida will be commissioned within a week and said the works on the upcoming corridors were progressing satisfactorily and expected to be completed before the Commonwealth Games, 2010.
While most members of the consultative committee appreciated the work done by the DMRC, some members suggested that the fares for metro ride should be cheaper. A Lok Sabha member said there should be facility for free drinking water and toilets at all metro stations.
A detailed presentation on Delhi Metro was made by DMRC Managing Director E. Sreedharan. He said the Delhi Metro has become the first railway project in the world to be registered by the UN under the clean development mechanism which will enable it to claim carbon credits.
Keywords: Delhi Metro Rail Corporation, Jaipal Reddy, Metro Railway Amendment Act, Metro Railways Act, safety certification, Mumbai, Bangalore, Chennai, urban infrastructure.

If you know the AT then you know about AT headquarters. Great little shop with excellent selection of maps and books about the AT. Loved the 3D Map in the back.
Virginius Island - Harpers Ferry
Harpers Ferry Town Trails
Harpers Ferry Lower Town Trails
We popped into the ATC headquarters in Harpers Ferry late on a cold, rainy Saturday evening in January. We were warmly greeted by the attendant on duty who showed us around and let us wander around. We are recreational hikers, and we're impressed with the breadth of literature, clothing and knick-knacks available. Even if you aren't a hardcore hiker, this...
We stopped in with my cousins who were visiting and the staff were very welcoming and eager to share information about the trail. Definitely recommend visiting the ATC - you won't be disappointed!
Although my family and I only traveled the Appalachian Trail for a short distance, the headquarters is excellently kept up for those planning to do a longer hike. My father had us walk there from a far distance, so it didn't seem to me like the best destination for so far a walk, but the place was very interactive and...
Make the AT Headquarters your first stop before hiking. Loaded with maps and books. Tons of tips from the volunteers and staff. They make everyone feel at home and park of the same journey as the thru hikes. Don't forget if you have extra supplies they have a hikers lounge where you can leave things for other hikers.
there's a huge range of people coming through the headquarters, but i noticed the staff respond suitably to car-tripping tourists, day walkers, section and thru-hikers. they were knowledgeable and passionate.
The headquarters is not exactly on the AT however it is close. They have some maps and a few souvenirs. If you are a hiker, have hiked on the AT (and know what AT means) and are in the area it is worth a stop. It is close to the Harpers Ferry National Historic Park.
My family and I stopped by on our way to Nashville even though it was a bit out of the way. It was neat to see the Through Hikers arriving and getting their pictures taken on the porch. Coincidentally, one of the staff members had just gotten back from a backpacking trip on the AT in New Jersey and camped...
Great little place not far from the lower town. Cool to see the tru-hikers stopping by and getting there picture taken. staff very nice! There is a small area "museum like" with info on the trail. A hikers lounge (you can page through the Polaroids of hikers stopping at the half way point). Small gift shop. Tons of info and...
Spent the week before Father's Day weekend with my Daughter hiking the Appalachian Trail from Front Royal to Harpers Ferry. ATC HQ is a mandatory stop for all of us who hike the trail as the "unofficial" halfway point. It allows hikers to see old friends we have missed on the trail. As soon as you walk thru the door,...

Yvonne Prettner Solon: Help extend pay equity in Minnesota
ST. PAUL — Thirty years ago, I was single mom — raising my two kids and working full-time as a psychologist. As any parent knows, raising two kids can be a full-time job on its own; and as I learned, parenting on a single income is even more challenging.

Envoy: North Korea Prepared for Disarmament Talks
There are new hopes of an agreement with North Korea today as international talks resume. Earlier today, a North Korean envoy said North Korea is prepared to discuss first-stage measures towards nuclear disarmament. There is speculation North Korea will propose to freeze nuclear activities and resume inspections in exchange for energy aid and normalized relations with the United States.
Watada Court Martial Ends in Mistrial
The court martial of the first US army officer to refuse to fight in the Iraq war has ended in a mistrial. On Wednesday, a military judge halted the case against First Lieutenant Ehren Watada over possible inconsistencies in a pre-trial agreement Watada made with prosecutors. A new court martial has been set for next month. More on this story later in the broadcast.
7 Die in US Helicopter Crash in Baghdad
In Iraq, the Pentagon has confirmed the deaths of seven US soldiers in Wednesday's helicopter crash near Baghdad. The deaths come as the Pentagon disclosed another crash — this time a helicopter belonging to an un-named security firm in Baghdad last week. Six US helicopters have now been downed in the last three weeks.
Iraqi Health Minister Arrested in US-Iraqi Raids
In other news from Iraq, Iraq's health minister has been arrested as part of the new US-Iraqi crackdown on Baghdad. The minister, Hakem al-Zamili, is part of anti-occupation Shia cleric Moqtada al-Sadr's political bloc. Military officials say Zamili helped move weapons using Iraqi ambulances. Sadr's group says the US military is trying to provoke confrontation.
Iraqi Speaker: Baghdad Crackdown "Last-Ditch Effort"
As US and Iraqi forces step up raids throughout Baghdad, Iraqi Parliament Speaker Mahmoud al-Mashhadani described the crackdown as the last chance for the US occupation.
Iraqi Parliament Speaker Mahmoud al-Mashhadani: "This plan is the last-ditch effort by the U.S. administration and the new Iraqi political system. If the plan failed, the Iraqi project of the U.S. administration would fail and the whole Iraqi political project would fall to pieces."
Iraq Cabinet Seeks Legal Action Against Al-Jazeera
In other Iraq news, the Iraqi government has asked parliament to take legal action against the pan-Arab satellite news network Al Jazeera. In a statement, Iraq's cabinet said Al Jazeera's coverage is contributing to "spreading death and destruction in Iraq." The move comes two years after the Iraqi government banned Al Jazeera from reporting in Iraq. In response, Al-Jazeera editor-in-chief Ahmed Sheikh said: "The Iraqi government is looking for a scapegoat to justify their failure in bringing security and stability to Iraqis."
UN Appeals for Aid in Iraq Refugee Crisis
The UN High Commissioner for Refugees has issued a new appeal for more international support in Iraq's worsening refugee crisis. Antonio Guterres spoke Wednesday in Jordan.
UN High Commissioner for Refugees Antonio Guterres: "When you have almost four million people displaced, half of it inside the country, half of it in the countries around, you are facing a humanitarian disaster and it's very important to mobilise the international community to fully support the people in need, but also to fully support countries that have very generously accepted them like Jordan, like Syria, like others, and that need massive solidarity from the international community."
An estimated two million Iraqis have fled to neighboring countries — more than half to Jordan and Syria.
Italy Orders Trial for US Soldier in Calipari Shooting
In Italy, a US soldier has been ordered to stand trial for the deadly shooting of Italian intelligence agent Nicola Calipari in Iraq. Calipari was escorting the Italian reporter Guiliana Sgrena out of Iraq following her release from a month-long abduction. The soldier — Mario Lozano of the 69th Infantry Regiment in New York — is likely to be tried in absentia. In an interview with Al Jazeera, Guiliana Sgrena welcomed the trial, saying: "It is important because Italy showed its sovereignty in the face of the impunity of American soldiers. It's not only a symbolic trial but an important trial for me because I think we can find out the truth."
Palestinian Leaders Report Progress in Unity Talks
In Mecca, leaders of the Palestinian factions Fatah and Hamas say they are moving forward in talks on ending internal fighting.
Nabil Amr, media advisor to Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas: "I cannot say we really reach final agreement about all issues. But we are on the way to reach this agreement. The atmosphere here in Mecca encouraged the Palestinians to go ahead and I'm sure that maybe we will reach a conclusion within 48 hours maximum."
More than ninety people have been killed in less than two months of Palestinian factional violence.
Bolivia Reaches Deal with Striking Miners
In Bolivia, President Evo Morales has reached an agreement with striking miners over a tax increase on the mining industry. On Wednesday, Morales said the tax will only apply to large companies.
Bolivian President Evo Morales: "Just as you have heard me, friends, to strengthen and give power to all the work sectors because this government is for all the social movements. As one of you explained, we have been part of the process of change and we must continue."
GOP Senators Say They'll Push Iraq Debate
Back in the United States, seven Republican Senators who voted to block discussion on the non-binding measure opposing the escalation of the Iraq war are now claiming they will use all measures to ensure an open debate. In a letter released Wednesday, Senators John Warner of Virginia, Chuck Hagel of Nebraska and five others said they would attach their pledge for debate to any proposal hitting the Senate floor in the coming weeks.
Rice Denies Seeing Iranian Peace Overture
In other news from Capitol Hill, Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice testified before the House Foreign Affairs Committee Wednesday. In a controversial moment, Rice denied ever seeing an Iranian proposal calling for dialogue with the United States on issues including nuclear activity and possible recognition of Israel. The 2003 overture was revealed by the Washington Post last year. Former administration officials, including one of Rice's aides, have said the proposal was rejected. Rice was also asked about Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez.
Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice: "I do believe that the President of Venezuela is really destroying his own country economically, politically, and this is a place with which we had traditionally good relations and would like to continue to have good relations."
Russert Says He Didn't Tell Libby of Plame
In Washington, Lewis 'Scooter' Libby's defense has received a major blow from both a key witness and a recording of Libby's own words. Dick Cheney's former chief of staff is accused of lying to investigators and a grand jury during the investigation of the outing of CIA operative Valerie Plame. On Wednesday, NBC News correspondent Tim Russert testified he did not tell Libby about Plame's identity. Russert's testimony came after the jury heard a recording of an exchange in which Libby tells special prosecutor Patrick Fitzgerald he did not know of Plame's identity until he spoke to Russert. On the tape, Libby describes to Fitzgerald what he says Russert told him.
Lewis "Scooter" Libby: "Did you know that his wife works at the CIA?"
Special Prosecutor Patrick Fitzgerald: "And you said?"
Libby: "No, I don't know that."
Fitzgerald: "And his response?"
Libby: "'Yes' — something like, 'Yes, yeah, all the reporters know.'"
Fitzgerald: "And your response?"
Libby: "No, I don't know that."
Wal-Mart Joins Business, Union Call for Universal Health Care
The retail giant Wal-Mart is among a new alliance of businesses and labor unions to call for universal health care. On Wednesday, Wal-Mart joined with AT&T, Intel, the Service Employees International Union and others to call for universal coverage by the year 2012. They did not give specific policy proposals. Wal-Mart says businesses are paying an un-fair share of health care costs. Despite the alliance, the Service Employees International Union says its funding of the group Wal-Mart Watch will continue. In a statement, another watchdog group, Wake Up Wal-Mart, said: "If Wal-Mart is truly serious about universal health care, we challenge [it] to provide universal health care to all of its uninsured employees [and] make universal health care a litmus test for its political contributions… We await their answer."
Probe Clears Gitmo Guards of Prison Abuse Without Interviewing Alleged Victims
And finally, the Pentagon has cleared five service-members recently accused of abusing prisoners at Guantanamo Bay. But critics are pointing to one problem: investigators didn't speak to any of the alleged victims. The probe was ordered after a Marine Sergeant made public allegations of abuse she says she heard directly from the soldiers who carried it out. Marine Corps Sergeant Heather Cerveny said five servicemembers told her they regularly beat Guantanamo prisoners. The investigator, Col. Richard Bassett, says he conducted twenty interviews with "suspects and witnesses." The military has not explained why prisoners were excluded. Col. Basset recommended no disciplinary action against the accused guards. He did however accuse the whistleblower — Sergeant Cerveny — of filing a false statement during his investigation.

Miami-Dade should help revamp historic Flagler
Downtown's Flagler Street is the birthplace of Miami and is our main street.
Throughout Miami's history, it was where people went for shopping, dining, and entertainment. Anchor stores such as Burdines, McCrory's, and Woolworths brought visitors and locals to the area. La Epoca relocated to Downtown Miami after the 1959 Cuban Revolution because this was the center of commerce for our new city.
Downtown Miami, like most downtowns, experienced a decline starting in the 1960's toward the suburbs, and much of its magic was lost. Today, there is a reverse trend and downtowns throughout the nation are flourishing. Our downtown has experienced more than 80% residential growth and an onslaught of new restaurants and cultural institutions throughout the area. But Flagler Street remains dated and is in need of major improvements to revive its prominence as Miami's main street.
After three years of careful planning, the Miami Downtown Development Authority's Flagler Street Task Force — composed of property owners, businesses, and residents — has developed a plan for the redevelopment of the street. Among the elements of the plan are widening and leveling sidewalks, shade trees, and other pedestrian amenities that will dramatically improve the street's walkability. It will also contain a clever solution for closing sections of the street for desired festivals and events.
Flagler property owners have agreed to contribute $1 million through a special assessment already approved by the Miami commission. The city has also set aside its own funds for the project and on July 1, the Miami-Dade Commission will vote on allocating the remaining funds needed.
An improved Flagler Street will increase business, generate hundreds of new jobs, and enhance the pedestrian experience. It will also serve as a catalyst for further economic development in the surrounding area, just as the redevelopment of Ocean Drive and Lincoln Road led to South Beach's revival.
We urge county commissioners to approve the allocation of funds so we can move forward with the revival of one of Miami's most revered public spaces: Flagler Street.
Neisen Kasdin and Brian Alonso, co-chairs, Miami Downtown Development Authority's Flagler Street Task Force
