Winnipeg Free Press - PRINT EDITION
Boys in baseball caps carrying death in backpacks
THE world, in all its tangled webs, will be read into the Boston bombing suspects.
For some, the Tsarnaev brothers are Chechen avengers, young men seared by the long war in Russia's "southern backyard." For Vladimir Putin and his regime, this deed of terror in an American city is, doubtless, a vindication of the iron fist with which the Russians fought their long war against Chechnya, proof of the malignancy of the Islamist menace.
Foes of immigration can be expected to offer the Tsarnaev brothers as evidence a nation that throws its gates wide open courts this kind of calamity. One way or the other, the matter of Islamist radicalism hovers over this episode.
There are other testimonies that speak to the puzzlement of our time, to the difficulty of drawing hard lines between cultures in conflict.
A classmate who knew Dzhokar, the younger of the two brothers, from Cambridge Rindge and Latin School described him as a cool guy, a regular American kid on the wrestling team. Another classmate, Ty Barros, describes a boy who liked sports and listened to rap music and hung out with other kids in the neighbourhood. Dzhokar never discussed religion and politics, this acquaintance adds. Pamela Rolon, a residential adviser in the dorm where Dzhokar lived, at University of Massachusetts at Dartmouth said the young man "studied hard and spoke English beautifully."
The world outwits us, furrows run across it: We look for fixed identities and whole, intact worlds, and we find instead the shaking up of continents, the intermingling of peoples and ways.
For me, the earliest evidence of the foreign birth of the bombers was not their features, as we saw them in the grainy early footage, but the baseball caps -- one turned backward -- and the backpacks. This was Americanism as the two assailants understood it -- easily available, the kind that could slip across boundaries, evade detection. American urban culture fashioned the look, but it is now the property of one and all.
We know the pattern. These assailants live on the seam between countries and cultures.
Think of Faisal Shahzad, the young Pakistani who, three years ago, sought to detonate a car bomb in Times Square. He had driven his car from his home in Bridgeport, Conn. He had worked for Elizabeth Arden, and completed that all-American degree, the MBA. Neighbours recall him jogging in the evening near his home. The U.S. was his home and wasn't; Pakistan, the land of his birth, was no longer home. It could no longer answer his needs.
He came to militant Islam after personal failure and disappointment. For him, the faith had become a weapon. He found it online, on the world wide web -- that mix of modern technique and belligerent enmities.
Of all that has been said and written about this breed of "nowhere men" who have risen to war against the very messy world that forged them, the most poignant was said about the Lebanese-born terrorist, Ziad Jarrah, who is thought to have been at the controls of the plane forced down by its heroic passengers in Shanksville, Penn., on Sept. 11: "He never missed a party in Beirut and never missed a prayer in Hamburg."
Jarrah had been the quintessential party boy in Lebanon, hip and trendy; he and his sisters were strangers to traditional Islam. The pampered boy of an affluent family was unhinged by a radical reading of the faith that he found in the storefront mosques in Hamburg. Modernity failed and unsettled Jarrah.
There are echoes of Jarrah's story in reports about the older Tsarnaev brother, Tamerlan. Like Jarrah, Tamerlan was in his mid-20s. He had become a legal U.S. resident in 2007; he had shown no early interest in Islam. His passion was boxing, but then Islam entered his life through social media. Investigators found explosives and a trigger on his body after his death in a police chase.
Civilizational battles were once waged by warriors who donned the garments of different lands and spoke the languages of different worlds -- the Moors on one side, the Castilians on the other. The borders were easy to see and to make out. The global landscape is different today. It is boys with baseball caps who carry death and ruin in their backpacks.
Home is neither in the lands of their birth nor in the diaspora communities where people flee the fire and the failure of tormented places. No "intel" can find and identify this unsettled breed -- ordinary neighbourhood types who step forth to do battle against a modernity, and an order, they had once yearned for.

Apples, not barrels
'Uncle Ruslan's' denounciation of his murderous nephews serves as a powerful reminder it's the apples, not the barrel, Washington Post columnist Alexandra Petri writes at wfp.to/comment.

Scholastic has revealed Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix's new cover after fans discovered it in smaller form around the internet.
Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix's new cover features Harry flying above the clouds on a thestral with Hogwarts in the background. Beautiful!
Click the cover to see it full size.
The new Harry Potter covers have been unveiled one by one over the past few weeks. On Saturday we saw Goblet of Fire's cover. On Thursday Prisoner of Azkaban's was released. Chamber of Secrets' and Sorcerer Stone's debuted earlier this year.
Each of the covers were designed by Kazu Kibuishi and will hit book store shelves on August 27. Only the paperback versions will be modified. Mary GrandPre's artwork will remain on the hardbacks.
We are still waiting for Half-Blood Prince's and Deathly Hallows' covers. In addition, Scholastic will release new art on the box set's container.
The new covers are timed to celebrate the 15-year anniversary of Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone (first published in September 1998).
Scholastic says there are more than 150 million Harry Potter books in print in the United States alone, and the series still hits bestseller lists regularly. The seven Harry Potter books are published in over 200 territories in 74 languages and have sold more than 450 million copies worldwide.

Like the others who want this back say--black is too harsh for many fair women, especially for everyday. I just threw out a fortune in mascaras bought trying to replace it. Nothing close! 0 stars for Maybelline now, 5 stars for Maybelline then.
Not everyone wants the Hollywood fake lash look that is marketed now. This product felt natural, looked normal. It could be a real money maker...if it was marketed w/ a fresh new look. Need to find a new Co. Can't find a suitable replacement.
I too was very disappointed when Brown and Black/Brown was discontinued. Black is very harsh on a fair skinned, hazel eyed redhead with what looks like no eyelashes without mascara. Please bring back the other colors.
Perfect for my VERY long lashes. Feels so soft & never clumps or flakes. Adds color without giving me spider lashes, which I ALWAYS have problems with with other mascaras. I love this mascara :) Never using anything else again!

The Consumer Price Index, the most popular gauge of U.S. inflation, fell 0.3 percent last month, the Labor Department said. The so-called core CPI, which excludes volatile food and energy prices, was unchanged for the second consecutive month.
Economists polled by Reuters had expected the CPI to dip 0.1 percent, with the core index up 0.2 percent.
It was the first time since two back-to-back declines in late 1982 that the core CPI had not risen in any two-month period. Core inflation has slowed sharply so far this year, advancing at just a 0.6 percent annual rate after increasing 1.9 percent last year.
In the 12 months ended in April, the core CPI was up just 1.5 percent, its smallest 12-month advance since March 1966.
The Federal Reserve warned after a meeting last week that the economy faced a small risk of an "unwelcome substantial fall in inflation." Analysts had said any further sharp slowing would likely raise the odds the central bank would lower interest rates again to ward off any chance prices would fall for a sustained period.
Energy prices, which had risen sharply for three straight months, slid 4.6 percent in April, the biggest decline since November 2001. The price of gasoline fell 8.3 percent and fuel oil costs plummeted 14.9 percent, the sharpest drop since February 1990.
The tumble in energy prices reflected the drop in the cost of oil since late-February highs as concerns eased over the possibility of a war-related disruption in supplies.

For years, La Crosse law enforcement have been talking about the growing heroin problem in our community. Monday, the country's top law enforcement officer says the problem is growing on a national scale.
Attorney General Eric Holder called the heroin problem a growing public health crisis. But to solve it, the focus can't just be on heroin. That's because the gateway to a heroin addiction might be sitting in your medicine cabinet.
"Right now fewer drugs are more lethal than prescription opiates and heroin," says Holder, who says the heroin problem in the U.S. is only getting worse, "it's clear that opiate addiction is an urgent and growing public health crisis."
But while heroin addiction grabs the headlines, it's often the result of a much more common drug that could already be in your home. "The cycle of heroin abuse commonly begins with prescription opiate abuse," says Holder. "People don't start off as heroin addicts," says Mike Desmond, co-chair of the La Crosse Heroin Task Force. Desmond says in most cases, the real severe addiction starts with prescription drugs. "That's where a lot of them are getting addicted," says Desmond, "and the only reason they're going to it is it's cheaper."
Both Holder and Desmond agree, solving the problem will take not only law enforcement, but counselors and mentors. "Confronting this crisis will require a combination of enforcement as well as treatment," says Holder. The Attorney General is prepared to bring the strength of federal law enforcement to take on drug supply, but Desmond says the other half of the battle, is getting to kids before they get hooked. "A lot of it has to do with prevention and trying to do things educationally for young kids, especially kids who are hurting," says Desmond, "helping kids, young people that have issues of depression, anxiety and so forth and are using drugs to self medicate."
One recommendation the heroin task force will likely make to the city is to install permanent drug drop off boxes at police stations, Desmond says there are just far too many unused prescription drugs laying around that kids and addicts can get their hands on.
A heroin addiction is so dangerous because it creates a chemical change in your body and brain. You can't just wake up and say, 'I'm going to quit,' your body is relying on that opiate and the side effects are too difficult to handle.
Attorney General Holder points out that overdose deaths in the U.S. jumped 45% from 2006 to 2010.

I'm a Massage Therapist, Owner and Trainer of Sensationstouch Massage Therapy. I'm a Professional CMT with 10 years experience in this field and industry as of January 2015.
I am CMT, male, offering competitive, year-round savings on massage sessions.
I am a massage care professional in my early 30s who is career minded and an honor's graduate of the University of Life. I am trained, experienced and certified, and have a substantial working knowledge of the art of massage. I can provide amazing sensations and techniques to relax and stimulate the body, and it can be customized to address your particular areas of stress, strain, pain, tension, and aches. Massage can bring pleasure by maximizing the blood flow, as well as helping the body in its process of renewal and repair.
Many of my clients come from different walks of life, and every person is different, which is one of the reasons I enjoy my career. I have an intuitive touch and a deep desire to help people who want or need a massage like the massage styles I provide. I'm the type of person who enjoys working on the body for my clients' well being, in efforts to help relieve your stress, tension, and anxieties in everyday life.
As your masseur, I'll be sure you receive the utmost quality of your time spent. Any one of my sessions includes every aspect in a full body massage. I will use my best judgement on where to utilize time to those areas, unless instructed otherwise by you, the client.
The most popular massage styles are:
1. Therapeutic Massage
2. Sensual Massage
3. Sports Therapy Massage with Stretching
4. CMT Male and TS Female Four Hands Massage
5. Swedish Massage
6. Energy Work Massage
7. Deep Tissue
Silver Spring, MD 20902
This was the best massage that I have every had .The massage therapist hands felt like butter and removed the pain in my lower back pains.
Tasha J.
thanks for your kind review. I really do appreciate the business as well as friendship. Look forward to providing you with service for years to come.
Steve Giroux
It's always a pleasure getting a 4 hands massage with Steve and his partner. He takes his time and I always feel relaxed by the end of it.
Scott R.
My lady and I booked a 90 minute couple massage and was certainly not sure how it would work. Steve and Lindsey came to our home and gave us 90 minutes of intense, professional, totally relaxing, pampering massage. Nice conversation! They work well together and we will certainly book a second and third session.
Morris W.
Lindsey and I can't thank you enough for the kind review.
Looking forward to scheduling with you both again in the future,
Steve Giroux
I was stressed, sore, depressed, and achy before I saw Steve. His massage skills are without match, and he is acme to read your responses to the massage, knowing exactly how to relieve your pain and stress. I would highly recommend Steve to anyone who is looking for a "go-to" massage therapist.
Adam B.
Hey Adam,
Thanks for the kind review. I'm glad I have been able to meet, exceed and give you the best in quality massage sessions. I look forward to seeing and doing your massages again and again.
Steve Giroux
I had my first 2 hr. session with Steve a few days ago, in one of this winters most cold days. Steve is a professional who has a keen understanding of his clients needs and makes every effort to meet and exceed your expectations. When I arrived, the room was warm, clean and ready. He put some soothing music, brought me some water and started his magic. Yes, I would describe it as magic! All the while you feel totally safe and pampered! The two hours went by quickly and I cant wait to come back to him again!
Ana G.
Evening Ana,
thanks for the kind response as well as review. It feels great knowing I was able to provide and exceed your expectations as well as pamper and cater to your wants and needs. Sorry to say my 2 hour sessions do some times tend to go by quickly perhaps in the future I can extend your time so your able to enjoy and unwind better.
Thanks and look forward to seeing you again soon too,
Steve Giroux
Steve is pleasant, courteous, and a true professional. What's good: wonderful massage, comfortable surroundings, excellent neighborhood, easy parking in front of the studio. What's not good: my 90' fly by too fast. I see Steve as often as I can make the long drive. He's the best; and the best value in the business.
Bob R.
thank you for the nice review. I appreciate your business and I look forward to seeing you again and again in 2014.
All the best,
Steve Giroux
Went to see Steve and Katie for a four hand massage. Wasn't sure what to expect but it might have been the best massage I have ever had. I have had some significant losses in the last several yrs and they were able to help me forget about each and everyone of them. Yes, I will go back time and time again.
Mike S.
I booked a one hour sweedish massage last weekend. I arrived and he was ready for me. I did not have to wait. He concentrated on my problem area, my upper back. Overall a relaxing, pleasant experience.
Queenzoila M.
Thanks for the kind review, I'm glad to be able to
help you feel better and help take away your soreness and
I have been going to Steve regularly for six months, usually for 1 hour at a time. I always leave a session feeling better--both physically and emotionally--but wishing it had lasted longer. Steves approach to working on me is consistent but, unlike others I have received massage from, he varies his focus from session to session based on how I am responding. As a result, he doesnt just go through the same motions each time.
Greg H.
It's always a pleasure being able to provide you with
a great service and massage time an time again.
Perhaps in future sessions I can extend the time
of some of your sessions. I always appreciate and value
your friendship and business.
Thanks again,
Steve Giroux
Steve is an amazing massage therapist who knows how to accommodate and clearly communicate with clients. I had a 2-hour session with him and every minute was worth the money. I was looking to relax and be pampered. Steve's touch or technique consisted of a rare but wonderful combination of relaxing Swedish massage but with a firm pressure. The technique used removed all the stress in my back and neck. When I left, I felt happy and stress-free. I definitely plan to return for more massage therapy!
I am so pleased that you enjoyed your session with me. As you know I take pride in my work to give you the client a quality massage session and care that is and was so very much sought out, desired and needed. I'm glad that you were able to unwind, relax, feel pampered and melt in my hands through a sublime symphony of the healing arts of massage for the mind, body and spirit.
I certainly hope to get to build with you in future sessions, so that your journey with massage therapy can be truly blissful.
Thank you again,
Steve Giroux
I just had my first massage with Steve's partner, Katie, and it was wonderful. She is very friendly, laid-back, accommodating, careful to ask and listen to your goals for the massage, and does a really nice job. I had a 90 minute, and she used the whole time very well. I met Steve when I got there, and he seemed nice and friendly as well. But Katie is the one who did my massage, and I would definitely recommend her and I plan to go back again soon. I've had a number of massages before so a top rating for Katie comes from experience.
Gary G.
I'm certainly glad to get such a kind response and review. I certainly hope I get to see you again sooner then later for future sessions.
Thank you,
My first experience with Steve as my therapist was fantastic. He was cordial and caring. The massage really helped with my muscle structure and he was very attentive to all my needs. I felt relaxed and comfortable. The room was warm and the music atmosphere was super. I strongly recommend Steve if you need a great massage and to relax. Tom
Tom U.
I'm glad your first experience with me was amazing, I hope in future sessions with me your able to grip and obtain everything and anything you need and or desire. I look forward to developing a working relationship with you for years to come.
Thanks for the review,
Steve Giroux
Steve is a first-class professional! I have been seeing Steve for over a year. Without question he has given me the best and most gratifying massages I ever recieved. He demonstrates his professionalism and expertise by showing his interest to satisfy his clients and accomodate their needs. He strives for excellence in pleasing his clients. Steve was able to effectively release all the tension and relax all the tight muscles. I truly melted under his strong, talented hands, arms and entire body. If you want a truly awesome and memorable massage experience, I highly recommend Steve. It doesn't get any better than him!
Stan J.
As always it's been my pleasure and duty to provide you with outstanding service and professionalism. As you know I take pride in my work and it's been an awesome opportunity and blessing to have a customer and friend such as yourself.
Thank you sincerely.
Steve Giroux
Steve has a natural knack for tailoring your massage to the issues your body is having. Having a massage with Steve is never run of the mill. It's invigorating, stimulating healing and improving your health. To me, all things I want and need to have in a massage are guaranteed to happen with a massage done by Steve.
Karin V.
Over the years you've been a great influence in both my business and personal life. I truly appreciate everything you do to encourage me to be the best I can in my field and industry. Believe me it means a lot. It's always a pleasure to hear that you say I have a natural knack for massage. I think your right, which was one of the main reasons I entered into this line of work and field in the first place. (-:
I've seen Steve so may times I have forgotten how many appointments we've had together. Each session gets better and better and this most recent was the BEST yet! I arrived a few minutes late, but Steve opened the door and greeted me and let me tell you, when he opened that door pure pleasure started. I got undressed and laid on the bed and the pleasure commenced. He started with his usual techniques and then proceeded to send relaxation throughout my body, starting from my shoulders down to my ankles. This time around he worked on my most stressed areas with extra attention (even though I did not even tell him where the stress was built up) and put a little extra firmness into the session to help release weeks of airplane tension that had built up. When he was finished with my back he flipped me over and I was instantly taken to another state of euphoria. I have to tell you that each session with Steve makes me SO relaxed, that I can sleep an entire day. His touch sends you into pure bliss and I was so relaxed I had drifted off a couple of times. This late night experience was amazing and I will of course wait with baited breath for the next appointment!
Marcus E.
It's always an awesome thing to read such an amazing review. I really do appreciate you and the support you've given to me and Sensationstouch Massage Therapy over the years. It's truly a blessing to have a customer and friend such as yourself to keep positive reinforcement in my life to progress in life and in business. I hope to steal you away from Phili some time soon and take away all your pent up stress and tensions from work and personal life.
For the last two years, Steve Giroux has given me a series of 90-minute massages, which have left me relaxed, fulfilled, and vibrantly alive. Steve has excellent hands -- firm yet gentle. He is careful to find out about the customer's needs and wishes. and he is a friendly, calm, and open person. Appointments are easy to arrange.
Tom F.
So nice to hear you've enjoyed all your sessions over the past two years. It means a lot to know that you've enjoyed each session and will continue to support me and Sensationstouch Massage Therapy in the years to come.
I have had a number of massages with Steve, and he is very talented -- intuitive, always gets my back fixed, and I leave in better shape than I came in (not always the case with massage practitioners in MD!) He could use a better location, but that's secondary to the quality of his work.
Jack S.
I appreciate the kind review. Just let me know next time you need a massage, I will be sure to make myself available.
Steve gives a great massage. he's a very nice guy amnd it was easy to make an appointment.
Benjamin M.
:-) Thanks again.
Steve gives a great massage, is a very nice person and is always flexible with scheduling. I always leave refreshed and glad I made the appointment.
Steve S.
Glad to know I'm able to be as flexible as you need.
Steve always finds the time to squeeze me in for a massage even if I call at the last minute. He does a great job and I always leave feeling relaxed and calm!
Paul M.
Yes, I do try to keep a flexible schedule, even for last minute massages. I appreciate the review and response. Thanks..
Great doing business with Steve. He is professional, considerate and trustworthy. Maes you feel like a million bucks!
Erik G.
Thanks for the review!
A. The most common jobs I do for my clients are 1 hour, 90 minutes, 2 and 3 hour massage sessions. Styles of massage vary depending on what my customer would like.
A. Over the past month I've completed 2 - 1 hour Therapeutic style massages as well as a 2 - 1 hour Sensual-Energy work styled massages.
A. When your looking for a provider for massage be sure you ask the Massage Therapist questions. The more you know the better your massage will be. Interacting and developing a "friendship" and or becoming a regular client ultimately will benefit you the customer in the long run.
A. How long have you been in business?
Are you available to travel or do you have an incall location?
I don't want to go out; Are you available come to my home?
I'm a woman and would love to be massaged by a man but how can I be sure that you won't take advantage?
Are you open and available to massage a man or couple?
How much is all this going to cost me?
I'm single, student, parent, having career/job difficulties in our economy, ect, and I'm not sure I can afford your service. Can you work with me?
Do you offer discounts to Military Personel?
Do you offer discounts to college students?
A. Make sure you have ample time for your massage and aren't rushed. I will sometimes go over the time scheduled if I feel you need or require the extra time, to help in your renewal and repair to your mind and body.
A. I generally stay pretty competitive, I always try and give a customer a quality session without having them feel rushed or pressured, but always safe and secure.
A. What I like most is the diverse people I am able to meet.
I enjoy hearing back from my previous customers having them tell me how I was able to help them feel more pain free or giving someone else the ability to unwind, relax and enjoy a massage session.
A. Q1.: I don't want to go out; Are you available come to my home
A1: Yes of course, provided you are accessible and not too far out of the Maryland-Washington DC-NOVA Metropolitian Area.

A2: I will think that you have gone through a terrible ordeal and need all the help and support you can get.
Q3: I'm a woman and would love to be massaged by a man but how can I be sure that you won't take advantage?
A3: You can't really but I have been massaging both men, women and couples professionally for 8 years as of January 2013 and haven't taken advantage of one yet. Give me a chance. You'll love it.
Q4: How much is all this going to cost me?
A4: I stay competitive, however generally you will find my service to be lower than anyone elses. I have regular rates, specials I run at different times and seasons of the year and returning client specials for those who are repeat clients and wish to have a long standing Relationship-Friendship with their masseur-massage therapist.
Q5: I'm single, student, parent, having career/job difficulties in our economy, ect, and I'm not sure I can afford your service. Can you work with me?
A5: Yes provided you are 21 +, I'm not in this business soley for the money, I have a true passion for the art of massage and the healing techniques that provide amazing feelings throughout the body.

Q6: Do you offer discounts to Military Personel?
A6: Yes I do provide Military Discounts - Provided you can furnish your Military ID - Not a Drivers licence or State ID card or are dressed in uniform. Discount per 1 person is $20.00 USD off any 1 hour session, based on Massage Special, session rates. If you are Married or a couple per 2 people it's $50.00 USD off any 2 hour session. Both people as a couple do not have to have military ID'S only 1 person. Discount is also valid when no other promotional offers are on special and discount is also available for retired military as well.
Q7: What do most women clients enjoy?
A7: The majority of women clients enjoy a sensual massage with stimulation with a combination of Therapeutic, Tantra, Yoni massage and /or the sports therapy massage. The sensual massage is less deeper on pressure and your body and mind will feel refreshed, satisfied as well as uplifted.
With the sports therapy massage: It's more focused to gym-athletic minded people who enjoy stretching within a session in additon to the full body massage this type doesn't include stimulation. Usually women clients like spending time with me because my sessions from what I understand are less rough and more comforting than other masseurs and masseuses in the area.
Q8. What is a Medial Massage and what is it's use?
A8. The medial massage is a device I use that looks like a belt sander in a way with a rubber bottom. The device itself penetrates deep beneath the skins surface alleviating deep tight muscles and tissues. The device when used along the muscle structures of the body are loosened helping the body to feel more relaxed and rejuvinated. Generally I will only use the medial massage for 5 to 15 minutes depending on the persons body size and structure and tightness from what the muscle itself feels like. It feels amazing along the upper mid and lower back as well as the hands, shoulders, neck, thighs and feet, it's a wonderful stress reduction tool.
Q9: Do I offer same day appointments?
A9: Answer is yes provided I do not have something else scheduled. I also accept appointments in advance as well as last minute.
Q10: Is there was anything that a client can do before a session?
A10: I'd recommend a warm to hot shower to help the skin's pores to open up and to allow the essential oils and or lotions/creams be absorbed into the skin that helps in a couple ways. 1 - is the oils, lotions or creams are more easily absorbed into the skin helping the skin itself to be more allustrious and smooth. 2- It helps in the process of the massage when there isn't a preexsisting amount of sweat or dirt build up that can be messy when giving a massage. Many of the products I use are incredible for the skin. Since everyones skin type and tones are different, I use my best judgement on which one would be right for you unless instructed otherwise by you the client. Also let me know if you have any known allergies to skin care products in advance before scheduling your appointment.
A. In all honesty, I got into this line of work and field based on what my mother used to tell me, after she came home from working two jobs and her neck, back and shoulders were sore. So I'd give her a massage and she always used to tell me I had magnificent hands. So I took what she said to heart and became a CMT.
A. If your looking to get into this field. Make sure your open to differences in people. Make sure you have hand strength and the endurance to go the extra mile for your customers. Being friendly and open minded go a long way in the industry.

DENVER -- Three people have been arrested in connection with the killing of five people at a bar that was then set on fire, apparently to hide the crime, and the motive was robbery, Denver police said Thursday.
Police Commander Ronald Saunier said the suspects went to Fero's Bar & Grill bar to rob it before closing time Wednesday, but he didn't go into details about how it turned into a murder case.
"It appears that the motive of this crime was robbery, that they came in there, I don't want to say that it was a robbery gone bad, but it wound up being a robbery. The arson was set to try to cover up the crime scene," he said.
An officer on patrol around 2 a.m. Wednesday noticed a fire at the bar, where a regular poker game was held Tuesday night. Inside, firefighters found the bodies of one man and four women, including the bar's owner, 63-year-old Young Fero. Investigators think the fire had been burning for about 15 to 20 minutes before the officer spotted it.
Joseph Hill, 27, and his brother, Lynell Hill, 24, and Dexter Lewis, 22, were all arrested in Denver starting late Wednesday night, police said.
Investigators were led to the trio because of some tips that came in after a news conference that afternoon. Saunier said he believes the suspects had been to the bar before.
The Denver medical examiner identified the other victims as Daria M. Pohl, 22; Kellene Fallon, 45; Ross Richter, 29; and Tereasa Beesley, 45. Pohl, Fallon and Beesley were from Denver. Richter was from Overland Park, Kan.
The medical examiner didn't release the cause of death. Police haven't said how they died and wouldn't discuss whether any weapons were found.
The suspects are being held on suspicion of first-degree murder, felony murder, aggravated robbery and arson.
Two of them apparently have criminal records in Colorado. According to court records, authorities were already looking for Lynell Hill for failing to appear in a matter related to a 2010 case.
An arrest warrant was issued for Lynell Hill on Oct. 9 for failing to appear in what began as an assault case in suburban Arapahoe County. He ended up pleading guilty to harassment by striking, shoving or kicking, according to court documents. A lawyer who represented him in that case didn't immediately return a call seeking comment.
Records show that a Dexter Lewis with the same birthday as the suspect arrested pleaded guilty to robbery charges in Jefferson County. There was no indication of a sentence being handed down in the records.
Lewis' lawyer in that case remembered him as "very articulate and very nice" and said he didn't seem like the kind of person who would commit the crime he was accused of then.
"He was very sweet, very intelligent," said Sara Garrido, who was a public defender at the time but is now in private practice. She didn't remember the outcome of the case.
Lynell Hill and Lewis were scheduled to appear in court Thursday but Denver County Court Judge James Breese rejected a request by the media to have a photographer in the courtroom, saying "there are still people to be interviewed and evidence to be gathered." Police haven't released mug shots of the suspects.
He also ordered the court records sealed.
The bar is in a strip mall about five miles south of downtown Denver, just beyond the upscale Cherry Creek North shopping district. The bar attracted both regulars and people staying in nearby hotels, but neighbors said it didn't seem busy most days.
Frequent patron Chris Brady said the bar's customers ranged from "semi-homeless-looking people" to patrons in suits and ties.
He was at the bar for a regular poker game held Tuesdays and left at about 11 p.m.
"There was nobody random or crazy in there," Brady said.
Brady said Fero was known for cooking up beef dishes for customers at a moment's notice and usually would close the bar herself.
She bid him goodnight Tuesday as he paid his tab.
"She said, "Thank you, sweetie. Have a good night,'" Brady said. "I said, `You too.'"
Danny Fero, who said he was Young Fero's ex-husband, said he talked with Young Fero about a month ago regarding a visit with their daughter, but she made no mention of any threats. He said he was shocked by the events at the bar he once co-owned with her.
He told The Denver Post the two had met when he was working as a spokesman and photographer for the U.S. Army in Seoul, South Korea, and she was a clerk at the Korean Ministry of Agriculture. The two later married and had a daughter.
Jerry Richardson, who maintained an ATM at the bar, described Young Fero as "feisty."
"When she wanted that machine fixed, she would tell you about it," Richardson said.
Few details were immediately known about the other victims.
At an address listed for Pohl, a man who answered the door declined to comment. But neighbors Bert and Suzanne Kasben expressed disbelief that the studious 22-year-old was killed.
"She was always working," Bert said, adding he knew she held several waitressing jobs.
The Kasbens said Pohl was one of three sisters in a tight-knit family who often were seen walking their dog in a quiet cul-de-sac.
Meanwhile, Beesley was listed in state records as the owner of Maxim Lounge, another Denver bar.
Associated Press researcher Rhonda Shafner in New York and AP writers Dan Elliott and Nicholas Riccardi in Denver contributed to this report.

Free Press News : CNN stuns U.S. with actual news
CNN International is what runs on one of the screens in front of me at work. It's pretty good, not the fastest by any means, but not bad for TV and fairly in-depth. I caught this article, which surprised me. Is CNN really limiting their best stuff to the overseas audience? How peculiar.

ID Code:
CFR Section:
SCOGS Opinion:
Inositol is a naturally-occurring substance that is widely distributed in plant and animal tissues and synthesized in animals and man. Orally administered inositol is absorbed slowly and is metabolized. The available information form toxicological studies in animals suggests no adverse effects associated with consumption of inositol at levels considerably in excess of those now consumed by humans. Despite the demonstration of signs of inositol deficiency in several animal species, no requirement for dietary inositol in man has been established. The high inositol concentration of human milk, and the relatively low concentration in cow's milk, together with the inadequate understanding of inositol metabolism and utilization during neonatal development in animals and man, suggest the possibility that basic infant formulas, particularly milk-free preparations, may contain less inositol than is necessary for optimal growth and development. The rationale for adding inositol to certain infant formulas is based on an assumption that the greater intake insures against a possible deficiency of inositol during early growth and development, when the need for dietary sources of inositol might be maximal. However, if future investigations should clearly demonstrate a need for additional inositol in infant formulas, and if that need should be greater than the amount now added, it is unlikely that the recommended level of intake would exceed that supplied by human milk. The Select Commitee has considered the foregoing and concludes that: There is no evidence in the available information on inositol that demonstrates, or suggests reasonable grounds to suspect, a hazard to the public when it is used at levels that are now current or that might reasonably be expected in the future.

Meruelo, Daniel and Kornreich, Ruth and Rossomando, Anthony and Pampeno, Christine and Mellor, Andrew L. and Weiss, Elisabeth H. and Flavell, Richard A. and Pellicer, Angel (1984): Murine leukemia virus sequences are encoded in the murine major histocompatibility complex. In: Proceedings of the National Academy of Science of the USA, Vol. 81: pp. 1804-1808 |
The studies reported here localize murine leukemia viral sequences to the TL region of the major histocompatibility complex, H-2. We examined a battery of 38 cosmids, isolated from two large genomic libraries constructed from C57BL/10 spleen DNA, that define 25 class I gene sequences. The viral probes used hybridized with only four cosmids, containing overlapping mouse sequences, that define four class I gene-related sequences in a region of 90 kilobases of DNA. The data show that two distinct viral envelope sequences are contained in the cluster. One of these sequences is situated with its 3' end next to the 3' end of a class I sequence. The other sequence, which does not contain the entire viral envelope, is proximal to the 3' end of a different class I sequence. Hybridization of the viral probes with the H-2 cosmid clones does not appear to be due to homology between viral and H-2 sequences. Rather, the viral sequences detected appear to be linked to or inserted amid class I genes. These findings may be significant in understanding molecular mechanisms involved in the generation of H-2 class I gene diversity.

Customer Reviews (5 reviews)
5 Sort by: Date | HelpfulWonderful customer service! Brian is the only mechanic I've met that took the time to explain what I needed and why I needed it. I didn't feel like he was trying to up sell me, or add hidden costs… rather, he helped me with "what I needed." No problems and my car runs great! Overall, the shop is affordable, friendly, and patient… what more could I ask for!
Auto Repair of Hollywood just saved me $800.00 on my bill. The knowledgeable and friendly staff diagnosed what other shops missed and quoted me $1000 to repair. They solved my problem right away at a reasonable price. I am recommending this shop to anyone who wants to illuminate being ripped off as I was almost duped in to paying.
I bought a clunker, but their mechanic really knows his stuff. He turned a bad investment into my dream car. He is honest and treats everyone with respect. Over all they were extremely fair on pricing and the office staff was enjoyable to visit with while I waited. I would highly recommend this place and their services to anyone.
Saving graces come in different ways. My friends urged me to use Auto Repair of Hollywood because my previous repair shop which I used for 2 years continued to RIP ME OFF of hundreds of dollars in unnecessary car repairs, and never really fixed my car.
Auto Repair of Hollywood fixed my vehicle the first visit, and I have never been happier. I loved the staff, upon meeting them because they were friendly and explained everything upfront to me of what my vehicles problem was. It really gave me peace of mind to know that I was finally in good hands.
I highly recommend Auto Repair of Hollywood. You won't be disappointed with the staff and the services they offer.

It took seven coaches, seven general managers and 12 years, but the Florida Panthers are playoff-bound. Making the postseason probably feels like a first, yet the real first came on Saturday as Kevin Dineen and Dale Tallon's squad won their first ever Southeast Division title after handling the Carolina Hurricanes a 4-1 defeat.
Ever since winning five games in a row from March 11-21, things have been awfully shabby for the Cats. Tonight's victory marks just their second since that point, as they went 2-3-5 in the final 10 games of the season. If you want an even clearer picture of their punch-less finish, chew on this: today marks their first regulation win since they beat the Philadelphia Flyers 2-1 on March 20.
The Panthers lacked much bite lately, so many will probably predict the sixth-seeded New Jersey Devils to "upset" them in the first round. Most (if not all) of the numbers seem to speak in the Devils' favor.
Right now, the Panthers could probably care less. The franchise has taken a huge step in the right direction and you never know how far they can go if things bounce the right way in the playoffs.

It was a more so intended to be a crack at the caps (i live in northern va and caps fans are annoying) for not winning an easy division…if it helps, i was rooting for the panthers to win the divison…
- bmoreredfury311 - Apr 7, 2012 at 11:58 PM

I'm a caps fan and i'm happy to see the panthers win the title they deserve it more then the caps. and hate to break it to you but your I's aren't in the post seasons and haven't been in a good what 10 years maybe more. i don't know and don't care. and i know your rebuttal is that the I's have a cup,. yay for them. but not this year and that's what matters most
- scottfmullin - Apr 7, 2012 at 11:53 PM

Churchward Type
| Joseph Churchward (b. Apia, Samoa, 1933) grew up in Samoa, and moved to New Zealand, where he founded a design studio in Wellington. He lived in Hataitai. He died in 2013 [Obituary by Jack Yan]. His early type designs were released as photolettering through Berthold. In 2000, in partnership with Chank, his fonts are finally being converted to the standard electronic formats. In 1984, he won a Silver Prize at the Morisawa Awards competition. In 2009, he was made a life member of The New Zealand Designers Institute DINZ. MyFonts writes: Churchward Type started in 1962 as Joseph Churchward's freelance lettering service. Within six months he had generated enough work to move from his job as Senior Artist into setting up Churchward International Typefaces, which became one of the largest typesetting companies in New Zealand. In 1969 Joseph was asked to submit alphabet designs to Berthold Fototypes and saw immediate success. He later went on to sign distribution agreements with D.Stempel AG, Dr Böger Photosatz GmbH/Linotype, Mecanorma-Polyvroom B.V and Zipatone. He self-published a handful of original fonts in 1978 becoming the first and only company in New Zealand to publish original photo-lettering. Churchward International Typefaces was forced to close in June 1988 but Churchward Type lives on with a fresh set of independent releases. David Buck has taken on the role of digitisation. Joseph continues to draw alphabets and now has a stockpile of over 300 unique alphabets to his name. Catalog of Joseph Churchward's typefaces:

Few companies are expert at marketing their products and even fewer are closely connected with their buyers.
Michigan-based outdoor retailer MooseJaw is the exception. The company just launched its latest apparel line designed with input from their customers, a group dubbed The Humans of Influence.
"We wanted to get the best ideas and opinions from the people who matter the most to us - our long-standing customers," said Allison Capaldi, Moosejaw Brand Manager.
The Humans of Influence helped decide features such as colors, pocket placement, thumb holes and mp3 compatibility. To acknowledge their impact on the line, Moosejaw decided to name each piece after a member of The Humans of Influence.
"The story here isn't that we launched a new line, it's that our customers feel like they are part of the process at Moosejaw and we want to encompass that into everything that we do," said Moosejaw's CEO, Harvey Kanter.
Keeping a unique brand following is nothing new at Moosejaw. Customer interaction has been at the forefront of Moosejaw's marketing that has gained national recognition within the outdoor retail and ecommerce communities.

This hotel has both good and bad points. We stayed for 3 nights in November. Good location, difficult car parking, breakfast was very poor and was not included inthe room proce - quite exepnsive for what it was. Would be noisy at most times of year due to square right outside building. Wifi did not work whole time we were there, had to use ethernet cable, which we always carry.
Hotel restaurant was quite good, staff were friendly / helpful, fairly good english.
Would not stay here again.

In Trampling on the Treaties, Chuck Tanner and Leah Henry-Tanner examine Washington gubernatorial candidate Rob Mckenna via his career as a public official opposed to treaty rights, as well as his working relationship with Anti-Indian activists and organizations. As the Tanners note, Mckenna's Anti-Indian policies and ideas, and his willingness to ally his public office with opponents of tribal rights, should raise a large red flag for all people in Washington state who support respectful relations with Indian Nations.As Washington Attorney General, Mckenna's legal briefs, they warn, "provide a political framework for backlash against Indian Nations"...His actions as Attorney General, "point to a pattern of disrespect for the basic rights of indigenous nations"...When Mckenna perceives a state interest at issue, "he will oppose the fundamental rights of Indian Nations and ally with anti-Indian activists to achieve his goals".

Lawyers & Law Firms
Law School
Will McGuieWoods receive its fees from the $49 million pot? Or are the fees and expenses taken care of separately?
Kudos to those who took Josephson's bar-review course before he sold the company to found his nonprofit ethics center.
$125 per person is a terrible settlement and only represents about 4% of the price of the course. This cannot come close to the profits Bar/Bri has made through their monopolistic conductnot to mention the possibility for treble damages!! I'll tell you one thing, if I had a monopoly on anything, I'd be jacking up my prices a lot more than 4%. Like, maybe 40%, or 400%. Especially if I was dealing with a customer base that thought they needed my products as much as law students think they need a Bar/Bri course.
Bar/Bri was a bargain. I passed the bar the first try. These plaintiffs, having decided they paid too much for Bar/Bri's handholding, now complain that McGuire Woods isn't holding their hands tightly enough. Stop whining. It's unbecoming to a member of the bar.
As a recent BarBri student and member of the Kentucky Bar, I agree that BarBri was effective. Despite its perceived value, if it was engaging in unfair business practices to quell competition, BarBri should be sued, if not only to compensate those of us who shelled out thousands of dollars, but to prevent future students from having to incur additional debt just to take a study course for the Bar Exam. Wrong is wrong, and if that proves to be the case here, then both companies deserve what they get.
Conspiratorial price fixing is wrong only if you get caught or can't buy your way out of liability for a much lower cost.
Just kidding. I'm really an honorable guy.
I got a back ache hauling around all those Bar/Bri books. thete has to be an easier way to train for the Bar exam. But there was no other choice. What bothers me is that this sweetheart deal is not going to solve this problem. So, we can look forward to a lot more aches and pains in the future in that world, because new competition seems unlikely. Curious;... how much do the lawyers get? I bet they're the real winners here,
Look for the emergence an open source approach to bar review in the next couple of years. Bar/Bri will be obsolete soon (but not soon enough).
Just give me my $125. I passed the NY Bar and thought BarBri rocked. The real scumbag is the "nonprofit" Educational Testing Services (ETS), which charges outrageous fees for even making a photocopy of a score and which pays those at the top ridiculously high salaries.
Actually, my salary is $185k, and I expect my bonus to be $45k this year. But you may have a long wait until you can "reliably outsource [your] outside counsel" (what could that mean, if it were translated into English, btw?).
for those of us whose firm's paid for all bar expenses including bar/bri - who will the check be made out to - firm or test taker?
I want my free $125!!!
I would have failed without the Conviser Mini-Review.
Paid $1300 for my barbri Course. Went to a couple of lectures by renowned professors.
Then, I just studied the books they gave me and passed the Texas Bar Exam easily on the first attempt.
I do remember one of the barbri lecturers saying "There will not be a water rights question on the bar. I am not supposed to say that, but there will not be one."
Of course, there was a water rights question for the first time in over a decade...glad I didn't listen to him and studied water rights.
Tier 2 students should get more than top school students. To make up for their advantage in attaining professional opportunties.
If I don't get my $125 because those idiot plaintiffs reject the settlement, I will be pissed. I won't do anything, but I'll be pissed. Maybe I'll leave a comment on a couple of blogs, but that's pretty much it. Stupid plaintiffs.
A few of you are missing the whole point. It's not about your passing the bar thanks to BarBri. It's about BARBRI taking over the market and driving up prices. If BarBri had not done this, you would have been able to pick BarBri and would have paid less. Afterall, they profited over 65 million last year just on bar reviews.
The graded essay portion of Barbri is the biggest joke in the world. When I began to suspect that the graders were completely ineffective, I typed up and submitted the example given in the book as a "90 point" essay. It got a failing score from the barbri grader. I paid several thousand dollars for THAT?
I used Micromash. Significantly cheaper, and it worked.
regardless of how anyone feels about this, its puzzling that someone can get so emotional that he starts throwing around f-bombs, denigrating other posters, etc.
do you do that to your collegues or your family/friends?
Micromesh is owned by Barbri.
The real question is how do I get my $125?
BAR/BRI executives engaged in illegal acts. Why aren't they being criminally prosecuted?
West/Kaplan Propose to Settle Bar/Bri Class Action
From Law.com: West and Kaplan are proposing to settling the antitrust lawsuit over Bar/Bri for a total of $49M, of...
BAR/BRI promised us $3,000 each (1,000 times treble damages). I think we hold out for a fair settlment offer.
Why should there be only one review course that controls the entrance to our proud and honorable profession? Law students would be better served by more viable choices, lower prices, and improved quality.

In my country, Garnier has released "officially" (you can always buy it through ebay or any other website) the first BB cream. I'm sure if you are assiduous to youtube, you have seen the video promoting this cream!Getting back to the point... It only comes in two tones "Light" (Claro in Spa.) and Medium (Medio in Spa.). The one that I bought was in Light because the Medium tone didn't match with my skin (too dark). So let's get pragmatic, here's a list of Pros and Cons: - Pros:

Kenmare & the Ring of Kerry
It's no wonder that, since Victorian times, visitors have been attracted to this dramatic chunk of Ireland. Mysterious ancient ring forts stand sentinel on mossy hillsides. A beloved Irish statesman maintained his ancestral estate here, far from 19th-century power politics. And early Christian hermit-monks left a lonely imprint of their devotion, in the form of simple stone dwellings atop an isolated rock crag far from shore...a holy retreat on the edge of the then-known world. The tidy town of Kenmare makes an ideal home base.
