ALOHA!!! We live on Oahu and hope you enjoy our home away from home here on our favorite island of Kauai. We love to scuba, sail, swim, hike, and any activity in on or around the ocean. Marybeth is from San Diego and I'm from Dallas. We met in Honolulu and married in 1990. James graduated from the University of North Texas and retired from the Air Force. He now works as a civilian for the Air Force at Hickam Air Force Base. He also enjoys teaching scuba as a PADI instructor. Marybeth is a real estate agent specializing in new condo sales. She is a graduate of University of Hawaii and has traveled the world.
Marybeth purchased this condo in 2006
We fell in love with the Kauaii Beach Resort on our first visit to Kauai. When we had the opportunity to purchase a unit, we jumped onboard. This is still our favorite place to stay and hope you will enjoy it as much as we do. There is so much to enjoy and do here whether you want to just kick back and relax or do something totally adventurous.
The room is on the top floor with a direct ocean view and, being the corner suite, it has a wrap around lanai that is unique. It is very private and quiet with a gorgeous ocean view. The location is one of the most beautiful places in the world. Hanging out at the pool bar is one of our favorite things to do and where you can meet the most interesting people. Situated in one of the most convenient locations on Kauai, the Resort is a quick ten minute shuttle ride from the Lihue International Airport and very central to shopping, championship golf, and all of Kauai's great activities, sites, and adventures. The full-service resort offers exceptional personal service, newly renovated accommodations, authentic Hawaiian entertainment, restaurants and bars, spa and fitness amenities, 4 magnificent pools with waterfalls and a Giant Slide, extensive meeting and conference facilities, plus all the additional features that are expected in a luxury hotel. People who come to the Hilton Kauai Beach Resort find themselves in a friendly, comfortable environment where they can relax and feel at home after a day of exploring the island. Kauai Beach Resort is an oceanfront resort situated on 12 lushly landscaped acres on Kauai's longest exploring and strolling beach. Surrounded by exotic lagoons, cascading waterfalls and a lush tropical setting, Kauai Beach Resort is considered one of the Island's favorite resorts for vacationers and conference planners worldwide.
This rental is a nice hotel room and the resort is lovely. The additional fees when you arrive here however are substantial and if you want housekeeping services and fresh towels that is pricey. Also had difficulty reaching the owner with a minor problem. I probably would rent directly from the resort next time.
We enjoyed our stay. The pictures and information are 100% accurate. The resort is 10 minutes from the airport. The grounds & staff were nice.
You will want to drive into Kapaa or Lihue if you are looking for a restaurant other than the one on the property.
We had a fabulous time at the Kauai Beach Resort. The view from this corner unit was a wonderful as it was shown to be. We saw fabulous sun rises and lots of whales from the balcony! The restaurant and the lounge were very nice. It was also nice that their was a guest laundry at the resort. It is convenient to visit both sides or the island and is close to many restaurants. We would highly recommend staying here.
My wife and I enjoyed our four-day stay at the Kauai Beach Resort. The condo we stayed in was very nice, a corner unit on the 3rd floor with view of the ocean and sunsets. The resort was beautiful and the staff was very friendly. I did find it odd however that this place was called a "BEACH RESORT" because although it is on the ocean front, it is not a "swimming beach". The shore line was too rough and rocky to swim or snorkel. To actually get into the water you have to go to another beach just down the road a couple of miles. The resort however did have the most beautiful swimming pools I've ever seen. Overall we did enjoy our stay and had a lot of fun exploring the island from the beautiful condo we stayed in. The owner of this condo is very nice, easy to contact and great to talk to. We would definitely stay there again if we go back to that island.
The Kauai Beach Resort was a wonderful experience for us. It was located in a perfect location for my wife and I, a couple minutes away from Lihue and Kapa'a. The staff were very friendly and courteous, despite the fact that we were renting from a timeshare. They did not seem to mind. You could see and hear the ocean when the sliding door was open. It was amazing. The trade winds are constantly blowing a cool breeze through the windows. The resort itself is more of a business resort, with most people minding their own business and not a lot of tourists and kids running around. It was very peaceful. We were not huge fans of the restaurant downstairs. Either the fancy one or the more bar oriented one. We found them both to be very over priced and the food wasn't that great. I wish we could have the 3-4 meals we ate there back to eat at some of the fantastic restaurants on the island.
Although the room did not have a microwave, we still made due with the coffee maker for hot oatmeal in the mornings and we maxed out the fridge to capacity. The bed was comfortable, as was the couch/chaise lounge.
We highly recommend this property for people who need a base camp to explore all of what Kauai has to offer.
The owners were very helpful, and called us to make sure we got in safely and that everything was as it should be.
The room is gorgeous, the view spectacular, the food and service excellent. Enough superlatives? The beach is not swimmable due to a rock ledge, but the 4 pools and 3 spas make up for that. This resort is somewhat remote from town and restaurants, so a rental car is definitely required. The owner is wonderfully flexible and easy to work with. We booked all our outings with the concierge service, which was also excellent. Overall-- Fabulous Vacation! We will be back1

FDA Allows Marketing of NephroCheck »
"Today the U.S. Food and Drug Administration allowed marketing of the NephroCheck test, a first-of-a-kind laboratory test to help determine if certain critically ill hospitalized patients are at risk of developing moderate to severe acute kidney i"...
In clinical studies, patients have occasionally experienced nausea during PhosLo (calcium acetate tablet) therapy. Hypercalcemia may occur during treatment with PhosLo (calcium acetate tablet) . Mild hypercalcemia (Ca>10.5mg/dL) may be asymptomatic or manifest itself as constipation, anorexia, nausea and vomiting. More severe hypercalcemia (Ca>12mg/dl) is associated with confusion, delirium, stupor and coma. Mild hypercalcemia is easily controlled by reducing the PhosLo (calcium acetate tablet) dose or temporarily discontinuing therapy. Severe hypercalcemia can be treated by acute hemodialysis and discontinuing PhosLo (calcium acetate tablet) therapy. Decreasing dialysate calcium concentration could reduce the incidence and severity of PhosLo (calcium acetate tablet) induced hypercalcemia. The long-term effect of PhosLo (calcium acetate tablet) on the progression of vascular or soft-tissue calcification has not been determined.
Isolated cases of pruritus have been reported which may represent allergic reactions.

This is a split board - You can return to the Split List for other boards.
Lenovo Y500 vs. Y510p
Hello, I have a few questions regarding these two series of laptops. I was wondering which one (I've chosen two models) are better for the price. The two different models I was looking at are:
- Processor
3rd Generation Intel Core i5-3230M Processor (2.60GHz 1600MHz 3MB)
- Operating system
Windows 8 64
- Display
15.6" LED 1920x1080
- Graphics
NVIDIA GeForce GT650M GDDR5 2GB
Ultrabay SLI Graphics - NVIDIA GeForce GT650M GDDR5 2GB
- Memory
6.0GB PC3-12800 DDR3 SDRAM 1600 MHz
- Hard Drive
Y510p(59370007) @ $1,199:
- Processor
4th Generation Intel Core i7-4700MQ Processor (2.40GHz 1600MHz 6MB)
- Operating system
Windows 8 64
- Display
15.6" 1920x1080
- Graphics
NVIDIA GeForce GT750M GDDR5 2GB
Ultrabay SLI Graphics - NVIDIA GeForce GT750M GDDR5 2GB
- Memory
8.0GB PC3-12800 DDR3L SDRAM 1600 MHz
- Hard Drive
And a few notes:
- I understand that these do vary quite a bit in price (especially because of one being on sale), but that's part of my question. Is the extra money justified?
- A desktop is out of the question, so please don't tell me to build one. I'm aware that is very cost-effective, and I have been wanting to build one, but it's not an option.
- I plan on using this for all-around purposes, including gaming. I would hope that higher settings could be achieved, but at the same time, might not be worth more money. I don't know. I also will be doing some light video editing, possibly some programming, and others. So like I said, "all-around".
- And finally, if you really believe to have a different computer that suits me, don't be afraid to post it.
Thank you!
Before you judge a man, walk a mile in his shoes. After that, who cares? You're a mile away and have his shoes.
Yeah the extra $200 is justified for the Y510p. Note that neither laptop is very suitable for use as an ultraportable laptop.
MacBook Pro with Retina Display | 15.4" 2880x1800 | Core i7-3615QM @ 2.3GHz | 8GB DDR3 1600MHz | GT 650M 1GB GDDR5 | 256GB SSD | OSX 10.9 | Windows 8 Pro
1 more GB of RAM, newer GPU, newer i7 CPU, small SSD in addition to the normal HDD. I'd say the extra money is definitely worth it

Yeah, I'm aware of that. Thanks for bringing it up though, I forgot that in the OP.
Before you judge a man, walk a mile in his shoes. After that, who cares? You're a mile away and have his shoes.
Definitely the Y510p. I have a GT650M in my Sager and it is quite a bit weaker then I thought it was, but I'm stuck with it. So you'll definitely want the 750M since I don't think laptops are usually very malleable
He has a robot body though, if he farted it would probably come out sounding like dubstep. - ISquat600lbs
the sli 750m alone is worth the $200 over the y500, not to mention the superior cpu, storage solution, memory, matte screen over the glossy
Y510P. But I got it at 999 at Amazon for a sale and it does have a crappy battery life that wasn't the point because go places with outlet and 2 1/2 hrs is needed to get the job done and also way better than moving a heavy desktop around when needed for gaming. I really love the full keyboard. I use the keypad a lot. This is my first laptop though. After trying people's laptops. It got annoying most prefer the slim and smaller laptops that has tenkeyless keyboard.
I hate the trackpad design so I use a mouse but if no option it's the trackpad. FN+F6 to disable the track pad if you type resting your palms. I keep touching the trackpad when I type.
American products is good go buy them.

There's a new Alaska reality show, courtesy of the Alaska Cam Sled.
"Alaska Cam Sled is a towed imaging system that takes a lot of high-resolution pictures of the bottom of the ocean," explained Gregg Rosenkranz, a state scallop biometrician based in Kodiak.
Rosenkranz and his colleague, Rick Shepherd, built the cam sled, which lets them watch live streaming video of the sea floor while onboard a research vessel. They hail it as a non-invasive way to observe and collect data in real time.
"We found out pretty quickly after we started doing this about six or seven years ago that there is a lot of other stuff down there; for example, a lot of Tanner crabs live in the same areas as scallops do."
"I like to think of it as a really stupid robot that does one job really well, and that is to take high-resolution photos," Rosenkranz said, adding: "It's easier and cheaper than a lot of other ways, because it is towed. You're not sending divers down there, for example, who get tired out."
The Alaska Cam Sled will be showcased at the American Association for the Advancement of Science, Sept. 26-28, in Kodiak. www.aaas.org/
Fish cam fast track
Meanwhile, Sen. Lisa Murkowski is pressing federal managers for faster action on getting cameras to replace human catch monitors on small fishing boats.
"With today's advanced technology, NOAA Fisheries can figure out an electronic monitoring system that works for small fishing businesses," Murkowski said.
The (electronic monitoring system) would replace observers now required on halibut longline vessels while fishing.
"That is the one thing I've heard as I've been out walking the docks," she said. "People take me onto their boats and say, where are you going to put an observer on this vessel that has room for three, maybe four?"
Murkowski said it troubles her that a crew member often gets left behind to accommodate an observer, which affects the efficiency and safety of the trip.
"I understand the data is important," she said, "I'm just saying we can be smarter in how we collect it."
Salmon scramble
A lackluster Alaska salmon fishery combined with shortfalls in farmed fish have buyers struggling to fill orders for U.S. customers.
The statewide salmon catch has topped 81 million, less than halfway to the 180 million fish forecast. It will take the hard-to-predict pink catch to get us there -- state managers expect a harvest of nearly 120 million humpies, 73 percent more than last year.
The pink numbers are adding up fast. Already half the total salmon catch consists of pinks, mostly from Prince William Sound (26 million). The biggest push is still to come from Southeast Alaska, where a catch of 54 million pinks is predicted.
Trade reports say that supplies for wild and farmed salmon are down across the board and prices for both are increasing. Notably, Alaska's sockeye harvest was disappointing. And shipments of Chilean farmed salmon are on hold pending FDA inspections for a banned chemical.
'But's up
Remember two years ago when people were aghast at halibut quota share prices hitting $30 a pound? Well, they've gone even higher. A scan of top brokers shows the asking price has reached $50 for some IFQs in Southeast Alaska, with most going for $40 to $43 a pound.
Prices for halibut shares in the Central Gulf ranged from $30 to $38.
For sablefish, quota shares in Southeast were going for $26 to $32; slightly higher at west Yakutat, and $20 to $30 in the Central Gulf.
Fish bits
The year's first red king crab fishery is under way at Norton Sound, with a half-million-pound quota.
The Dungeness crab fishery in Southeast will end Aug. 8, a week earlier than usual, with a projected catch of 2.25 million pounds.
The golden king crab fishery begins way out along the Aleutians on Aug. 15. More than 6 million pounds will be hauled up.
Pollock boats are fishing in the Bering Sea. Pollock reopens in the Gulf on Aug. 25.
Comments extended
NOAA Fisheries has extended the public comment period for the proposed halibut catch-share plan for commercial and sport fishing charter operators through Aug. 26. The plan, which will allocate fish between the two sectors in Southeast Alaska and Central Gulf, is scheduled to be in place next year.
Laine Welch is a Kodiak-based fisheries journalist. Her Fish Radio programs can be heard on stations around the state or found at alaskafishradio.com. Contact her at firstname.lastname@example.com.

The Sugar Shack BellinghamRead MoreAt The Sugar Shack, aestheticians neatly trim nails, wax limbs, pamper faces, and massage backs to help clients unwind from the stresses of daily life. To soothe skin that is inflamed, red, and itchy because of harsh weather or afternoon naps on a beehive, the beauty specialists slather it in a gentle cleanser and calming mask in the Environmental Control facial. Aromatherapy massages rely on essential oils to soothe aching muscles, and gooey paraffin hydrates hands and feet during mani-pedis. The spa exclusively uses Dermalogica elixirs—a product line free of common irritants and ingredients that can cause breakouts.112 Grand AvenueBellingham, WA US
AvedaRead MoreEva, which uses and sells environmentally friendly Aveda products, caters to hair and skin with an array of rejuvenating services. All hair services, which include a number of coloring options and a women's cut and style ($43), come with an aromatherapy scalp massage to relax the senses and drain collected cranial-stress juices. With many waxing options available, clients can touch up fingers and toes ($10) or prepare for the beach or a scantily clad spelling bee with a Brazilian ($75). The tourmaline radiance facial, a 90-minute holistic microdermabrasion session, utilizes the tourmaline mineral to smooth out fine lines and beautify complexions ($80). Eva's palette of spring colors, as well as a prismatic mosaic of earthy and bright tones, enhances the atmosphere with warmth and style.1201 Cornwall AveBellingham, WA US
Massage by Annie BellinghamRead MoreMassage therapist Annie is passionate about healthy living; otherwise her skills might stop at the usual Swedish and sports massages. While she excels at these and other conventional modalities, she also practices Ayurvedic massage. Through the Ayurvedic system, she believes that massages should not only help relax muscles, but also balance the constitution of the body to help stave off future health issues.1114 Finnegan WayBellingham, WA US
Chrysalis Inn Hotel BellinghamRead MoreAt The Chrysalis, guests are cocooned in material luxuries and the hospitality of a friendly staff. Enjoy the confines of a two-person luxury corner suite complete with stunning views of a glimmering, glittering Northwest seascape, a gas fireplace, and a two-person jetted tub set in a bay window for panoramic soaking. Boarders may work the wet bar and remain dry, channel surf cable TV, or hop onto the Internet to brush up on their conversational Esperanto. Each king-sized bed dons lavish linens and a down comforter, and a two-person shower offers plenty of elbow room. Additionally, luxury corner suites include a DVD and CD player, iPod dock, dual phone jacks, a refrigerator, and a snack-packed minibar stocked by local Lilliputians.804 10th StBellingham, WA US
Bollywood Eyebrow and Waxing BarRead MoreNo brow, leg, upper lip, or underarm is too overgrown to be tamed by the hair-removal experts at Grace Beauty Spa. The aestheticians are as versed in waxing as they are in threading, an ancient technique that evicts unwanted strands using a single length of twisted thread to ensnare hairs in a delicate embrace. Beyond busting bristle all over the body, the spa also bolsters beauty with Dermalogica facials and microdermabrasion treatments that rely on diamond tips instead potentially irritating sprays of crystals or fire ants.15777 Marine DriveWhite Rock, BC CA
Natural Oasis Day SpaRead MoreIndulgence is the theme at Natural Oasis Day Spa—whether aestheticians are performing facials with advanced Babor products or massaging away stress and last season's stomped grapes during thorough mani-pedis. Massages, meanwhile, ease tense muscles with broad, relaxing strokes, and gentle waxing and threading services clear out unwanted hair from across the body.1115 Vidal StreetWhite Rock, BC CA

Notice to Readers: National Epilepsy Month, November 2002
November is National Epilepsy Month. Epilepsy, a central nervous system disorder characterized by unprovoked recurrent seizures, affects approximately 2.3 million persons in the United States. Of the 181,000 new cases of epilepsy and seizures every year, approximately one third start during childhood.
Epilepsy is often an added burden to teenagers who already face many challenges as they encounter physiologic and social changes. Seizures in teenagers can lead to isolation, limit independence, and make them vulnerable to teasing and bullying from their peers. To help alleviate this burden, the Epilepsy Foundation, in collaboration with CDC, is conducting the second year of its "Entitled to Respect" campaign during this year's National Epilepsy Month. During November, the Epilepsy Foundation will initiate activities to educate teenagers about epilepsy. The goals of the campaign are to promote peer understanding and increase social acceptance of young persons living with epilepsy.
Additional information about epilepsy and the "Entitled to Respect" campaign is available at 800-332-1000 or at http://www.efa.org.

By Bill Patrice Jones: In just a few days time the worlds gaze will be sharply focused on the long awaited encounter between Wladimir Klitschko and David Haye. Its a super fight of the highest order, it has commanded fascination and interest the likes of which the heavyweight division has not seen since Lennox Lewis and Mike Tyson finally settled their historical feud in 2002. David Haye boasted last week that it was he who made this fight happen. Long ago now David Haye branded himself as the saviour of the heavyweight division, the man to restore pride, excitement and relevance to heavyweight title fights. The fatal irony in all of this, is that regardless of the outcome on Saturday night, the exact reverse of what David Haye wants his fans to believe is the truth.
It is the Klitschko brothers who have already saved heavyweight boxing. It is they who have restored pride and honor to contests for the heavyweight championship. For without them there would be no Haye - Klitschko super fight on the horizon, in fact without them the whole division would be left without a true torch bearer. Critics of the current heavyweight division have always stressed the importance of the torch bearer, he who defines the era and dignifies the belts. What David Haye, Adam Booth and vast portions of the Western media have elected not to notice is that we have had one for quite some time now. His name is Wladimir Klitschko, and while Haye can continue to pretend him being victorious will be for the good of boxing, the good of the universe, Klitschkos dominance at a time of fragmentation was precisely what the division needed. Haye is fighting the saviour.
Boxing is not like other sports; its history comes under focus more repeatedly than any other. Fans are perpetually reminded of the greats of old, the legends of the noble art. We incessantly indulge in classic bouts of the past, periodicals on former champions, documentaries on fallen heroes. The age old debates of who would prevail in fantasy match-ups are a permanent result of true fans appetites to see great action. So rarely do the best ever fight the best, that fans are naturally prompted to encourage the somewhat mythical notion that todays boxing cant live up to that of the good old days. With heavyweight boxing that debate is only exacerbated. Boxing fans have become accustomed to encountering the general sports fans malaise at the state of the division. Yet when analyzed with scrutiny this concept of the shocking decline in heavyweight boxings quality carries forth with it only a kernel of truth. After all consider this; could this really be the worst era of heavyweight boxing we have ever seen, when one of the biggest and most anticipated heavyweight fights of all time is about to take place?
Any general sports fan will be familiar with the relatively common literature which traces the lineage of the heavyweight title. True boxing fans will also be familiar with how much more murky that debate became with the proliferation of world title belts. Yet for the most part we have always been able to trace the true championship. The interesting phenomenon here though, is the refusal of so many people to trace the lineage following Lennox Lewis retirement in 2003. Most were, temporarily, happy to hail Vitali Klitschko, arguably the most physically imposing heavyweight champion of all time, as the next undisputed champion. Yet after his unfortunate retirement in 2004, too many in the West have failed to recognize the true champion who followed him. In 1986 there were four relatively nondescript heavyweight title holders ruling the division. None are hailed today as worthy torch bearers, or true lineal champions. However the man who emphatically unified those belts within a two year period needs no introduction anywhere around the world. Yet conversely, whilst avoiding any comparison between Mike Tyson and Wladimir Klitschko, the man who has done something reasonably similar between Vitali Klitschkos retirement and now has not been unanimously hailed as a lineal champion or a worthy torch bearer.
Before huge portions of boxing fans reading this article rise up in indignation at the comparison between Klitschko and Tyson, lets analyse recent boxing history more closely. For years during Lennox Lewis reign, and immediately following his relinquishing the title, American sportscasters routinely hailed Wladimir Klitschko as the heir apparent to the division. All respected, and knowledgeable, commentators recognized in Wladimir the huge potential to become the next great heavyweight champion. As George Foreman once said show me a big man with a left jab, and Ill show you a man whos hard to beat. While America, heavily motivated by national bias and resentment, refused to ever forgive Klitschko for his knockout losses to Brewster and Sanders, Wladimir himself slowly went about re-establishing himself as the worlds best. Since 2004 Klitschkos achievements have been exceptional, and his dominance paralleled by only a handful of other heavyweights.
He overcame adversity against the heavily hyped, and very dangerous, Samuel Peter in 2005, proving his resolve. Then he dispatched the elusive southpaw Chris Byrd, in a rematch, to regain one of the heavyweight titles. Wladimir has since recorded nine straight title defences, all of them in dominating fashion. Were it not for his disappointing decision win over Sultan Ibragimov in 2008, he would have broken Tommy Burns long held record of eight consecutive title defences by knockout. Wladimir partially unified the crown in 2008 adding the WBO to his collection. Klitschko should have added the WBA when he destroyed Ruslan Chagaev in 2009. (Chagaev, having already beaten Nikolai Valuev, was champion in recess) Were it not for Vitali Klitschkos impressive comeback in 2008, most can safely assume that Wladimir would probably have also been able to win the WBC belt from Samuel Peter. Is his style always crowd pleasing? The answer is no. Yet this can be said of many fine champions in the past. The point is this: Wladimir Klitschkos incredible consistency and utter dominance over a period of five years, far from killing the division, has actually saved it. Without him, David Hayes foray into heavyweight competition would hardly have had so much potential. For in Wladimir Klitschko, he has the chance to fight and beat a great heavyweight champion.
Imagining heavyweight boxing without the Klitschko brothers in this century, would be like imagining womens tennis without the Williams sisters. We should appreciate their excellence, inside and outside the ring, and enjoy the uniqueness of the times. Never before, and probably never again, will the boxing world see anything similar. Mike Tyson was astute in a recent interview when he said America would love the Klitschkos if they were American. Can someone imagine America daring to deny the Williams' sisters their respect because they dont play the most attractive form of tennis, or necessarily compete in the strongest era?
When Wladimir fights Haye this Saturday he will be in for one of the toughest challenges of his entire career. If he wants to secure a tenth successful title defence he will need to produce his best on the night. This fight ultimately comes down to how Wladimir performs. At his best he is undoubtedly superior to Haye. The problem is that he has often failed to perform to the very best of his abilities. If Klitschko comes out aggressively, throwing his jab sharply, and refusing to be backed up by Hayes attacks then he should win and do so convincingly. The favoured result though is anything but a certainty. We must remember that Klitschko has been consistently berated by Emmanuel Steward for not doing enough. He tells us Klitschko is more naturally talented than Lennox Lewis, but less responsive. Certainly he has not always shown us his best.
Much is on the line for Wladimir Klitschko this Saturday. While many boxing fans will feel, win or lose, that he has already created a good legacy. Many others will see this as his career defining fight. Those who believe this division is in a dire state will read in a knockout loss for the champion confirmation that Wladimir was never as good as his fans believed. For these reasons the stakes couldnt be higher for a man whose relationship to history is strained and contentious.

TERENCE SMITH: Journalists in America and the Middle East are trading places as part of an exchange program which aims to bridge cultural and political gaps between peoples. Two journalists involved in the program are Shareen el Wakeel of Egypt TV, and American independent television producer Mike Cerre of Globe TV.
Here's an excerpt of a report El Wakeel did about a week in America for her broadcast, "Good Morning, Egypt." She translated the story into English.
SHEREEN EL WAKEEL: Apart from our political and religious differences since September 11, Americans have started to become more aware of the rest of the world, especially the Middle East, and have started to take a closer look at us. I feel it is now our turn to take a new and closer look at them as well.
For one week, I tried to move beyond the current crisis in traditional news coverage of the United States and the Middle East by traveling across the country to discover some basic American traditions and values that might be closer to our own than we think. I also wanted to address some of the stereotypes we have of Americans from religion and movies: People with fancy clothes and girls in tight pants, and…
MAN: I don't think that's it. (Laughter) I don't think that's it.
SHEREEN EL WAKEEL: At first, I was afraid of how Americans would react to a Muslim and Arab reporter as a result of the 9/11 tragedy, but the local reporters covering the visit told me how rare attacks on Muslims had been, just like how rare terrorist attacks have been on Americans in the Middle East and how more furious Americans have become about Islam and the Middle East.
CRAIG BROWSER, Iowa Reporter: You're doing a story about the Islamic center. They've had more converts to the Muslim faith since September 11 than they've had, you know, previous.
SHEREEN EL WAKEEL: There are more than ten million Arabs and Muslims in the United States. In the larger of communities of New Jersey, I was surprised to see how they have been able to maintain their culture, and I wondered why their voice is not as strong and effective as other nationalities.
I wanted to get out of the big city and into the rural areas and what they call "the heartland," where the average Americans might have more in common with average Egyptians when it comes to what's most important in their lives.
DICK FREDREICKS, Iowa Farmer: What we… what we are looking for is the same thing that any person the world over is looking for– it's peace, it's prosperity, it's the right to live in a free environment and do what you want and strive for happiness. We're no different than… than anybody else the world over.
SHEREEN EL WAKEEL: While driving through Cedar Rapids, Iowa, I saw they had as many neighborhood churches as Cairo had mosques. And even more of them than manodes.
MAN: On almost every corner you see a church of some sort.
SHEREEN EL WAKEEL: I'm surprised here it's everywhere… everywhere big ones and smaller ones. My most interesting discovery in Cedar Rapids was the oldest mosque in North America that Arab immigrants started building here in the middle of the country in 1924. To really get to know Americans, you have to separate the people from the institutions and the media.
SPOKESMAN: We go to Amman…
SHEREEN EL WAKEEL: In San Francisco, these Arab journalists are translating news programs from the Middle East to produce the only daily English broadcast of Arab news in the United States for satellite television to make up for the lack of coverage from the major networks.
SPOKESPERSON: And Shereen El Wakeel is from Egypt, and is…
SHEREEN EL WAKEEL: To better understand the American media's lack of coverage of the Middle East and other foreign issues, I went to the University of California at Berkeley's Graduate School of Journalism.
SPOKESPERSON: A lot of Americans who aren't quite as educated are more interested in seeing things about America because they don't think that internationally what happens affects them. And it's less governmental. I mean, it's part of our educational system. It's very systemic.
SHEREEN EL WAKEEL: At George Lucas' production facility, I was able to ask some of the creators of these movie images if they were aware of how some of these stereotypical images might be interpreted differently in other parts of the world.
ALEX LAURANT, Effects Art Director: I feel that more responsibility should be taken, and that a little more sensitivity… in some cases, much more sensitivity should be exercised.
SHEREEN EL WAKEEL: After spending a week with Americans in their homes, their schools, and their churches, I found more common interests than differences in our values and in our hope for the future.
TERENCE SMITH: I'm joined now by Shereen El Wakeel, who is a correspondent and anchor for Egypt TV, and Mike Cerre, who runs an independent production company in California. Welcome to you both.
Shereen, did you find Americans in your travels here… did you find Americans familiar with the Arab world as you know it, or did they tend to deal in stereotypes?
SHEREEN EL WAKEEL: Actually, of course, they are so obsessed by the stereotypes they see, especially on movies, they don't have much information about Arab world or Egyptians. Maybe the pharaohs, the… you know, the most popular things and the stereotypes they see on movies and on television. But I don't think they know real Egyptians or real Arabs.
TERENCE SMITH: Do they show an interest… did you find an interest in the Arab world, the things that were going on in the Middle East, or did you find that famous insular quality of Americans?
SHEREEN EL WAKEEL: Let me tell you something. I've been to the United States several times before, and I've realized a big change after September 11. Before, people were never interested in knowing about the outside world, what's going on behind… away from their borders. But after September 11, and after I have this opportunity with Mike, I found out that people are getting more curious to know about the Arab world, the Islam, especially, and I can tell especially the younger generations.
TERENCE SMITH: Mike Cerre, tell us a little about this program, how it came to pass, and why you think it's important to do now.
MIKE CERRE: Well, Terry, it started in Bahrain in November while we were on our way over to cover the Marines going into Afghanistan. We were delayed with several other correspondents, both American and Arab. We went into one of the local soukhs and they were all commenting about how we really should be spending more time dealing with the cultures and the people involved rather than always responding to the crisis. And we all lamented the fact that we'd never had the time.
We were under deadlines; we have to do the crisis story. So we never really get to understand the culture and the people, which is probably what we should be spending more time on. So I suggested that what if we had the opportunity to take some time, do some human interest stories and try to learn more about the cultures, would everyone be willing to participate? They said they would. And at that point we decided, "let's try to put together a journalist exchange."
SHEREEN EL WAKEEL: It happened to me. It was the same way with me because, you know, I'm a political reporter. So dealing with political declarations and politicians all of the time, it was fully different when I started visiting countries and dealing with people. It was real amazing that there's different points of view. People are more simple, more willing to live in peace than the political declaration and the politicians want.
TERENCE SMITH: Mike Cerre, did you find… as you've done your reporting in Egypt, did you find some of same either stereotypes or attitudes about Americans that Shereen was talking about — about Arabs?
MIKE CERRE: Absolutely. In the first few days of reporting from over here, first of all, they were very surprised to see an American correspondent talking to them about anything other than the politics and the foreign policy. So they seemed as enthusiastic about hosting me and showing me around as Americans were to Shereen. It's a little bit of a curiosity to see a reporter in some of the neighborhoods and some of the off-the-beaten-track places that we've been going to. So I think there's a natural curiosity that they have about us.
The stereotype is, is that we don't know much about the rest of the world, and we don't care and we're not listening to what the Arab world is saying. So that is the first stereotype and kind of the misconception that we have to overcome. And through the benefit of the journalist exchange, Shereen helps me with that.
We were at a movie studio today, and there was a reluctance of some of the actors to really speak out with me, but fortunately Shereen was there. She kind of explained the process and then they were very open and they gave us some very, very interesting and very heartfelt information.
TERENCE SMITH: Let me ask you both, do the people you speak to "off- the-beaten-track," as you put it, Mike, in Egypt consider the United States to be something of a tool of Israel? Do you hear that?
MIKE CERRE: Well, Shereen and I have always tried to impose our Palestine rule, which is we try to hold off any debate about that issue until the last ten minutes of any hour, because otherwise nothing else gets done. That totally overwhelms whatever we're trying to do.
SHEREEN EL WAKEEL: Yes.
MIKE CERRE: So we try to stay as far away from that as we possibly can initially. But mostly when that does come up, yes, they think of us being almost synonymous with the Israeli cause. And that is a very important issue to them and something that is so central to all their ought patterns and their thinking, that it's hard once that issue comes up to get beyond it.
SHEREEN EL WAKEEL: Something happened today that really surprised me. When Mike was interviewing, you remember that guy who works with the camels…
MIKE CERRE: Oh, yes.
SHEREEN EL WAKEEL:…Who said about Clinton and Bush and…
MIKE CERRE: He was able to… he was very familiar with all of our Presidents, all of our foreign policy. He was very up to date on it.
SHEREEN EL WAKEEL: Yes. He said that he doesn't… the governments goes and comes, but people are the same, and he cares for the people, the American people. He doesn't care for the government. And I have… when I was in the United States, I had nearly the same answer from Bob Osborne, and he told me, and I… if you remember, I ended up with this, what he said. He said that, "I can work for anybody anywhere. I don't care." I only need to deal with people.
TERENCE SMITH: Well, Shereen, you mentioned that point in the last line of your piece that we just ran, you said that you found in your reporting in the United States, more common interests than differences between Arab and American peoples.
SHEREEN EL WAKEEL: Yeah.
TERENCE SMITH: I wonder if that has changed or been affected in any way in recent weeks as the violence has increased in the Palestinian-Israeli situation.
SHEREEN EL WAKEEL: Not exactly, but people, of course, are quite angry with the American administration. But let me tell you something, having people dying in front of you will rouse the sympathy of anybody. We all… nobody's happy for killing civilians or killing a human being, whoever he is, whatever he is, Israeli or Palestinian.
TERENCE SMITH: Mike Cerre, have you heard some of that anger? I know you've been in the Middle East I know you've been… you've been in the Middle East at least a couple of times since September 11, and of course you're there now. What are you hearing?
MIKE CERRE: Terence, I've noticed a very distinct difference. I was here in October and then passing again through in November. And the issue really was Afghanistan and the tragedy of September 11. But now the issue is really what's happening in Palestine. It is so central to their thinking here that it is very present in reading the newspapers here and in talking to the people, it is the central subject of discussion.
And so I know even when I was talking to Shereen and we were setting up this trip and setting up the stories, Shereen said, "it's going to be a little bit more difficult for you now because the acceptance and the openness that was one once here is closed down a bit." But so far being on the streets, just as I think Shereen had a fear when she came to the United States as to would there be any backlash to Muslims, I was a little bit concerned of what backlash there might be to Americans. And so far, there hasn't been much.
TERENCE SMITH: Shereen, I wonder how your attitude was changed or affected about the American media. You got to see how it worked, you got to see how it reports on the Middle East. I know that your… Egypt TV is controlled by the government. We think of ours as objective and free. Do you?
SHEREEN EL WAKEEL: I don't know. I'd rather not answer this question. You wouldn't like my answer. (Laughs)
TERENCE SMITH: Well, I think…
MIKE CERRE: It's free TV. Let them have…
TERENCE SMITH: I think we can stand it. Go ahead. I mean, I know you have some thoughts on that, on the commercialization of American television.
SHEREEN EL WAKEEL: In my case, I'd rather prefer it to be controlled by government because any government fears the media. The government or the government people fears the media, fears to be criticized by media, so we're not really dominated by government. But to be dominated by commercials and people who are paying, this is more difficult because you broadcast what they want to broadcast. I know it's different for the PBS, but still I don't find that we're sort of controlled by the government.
TERENCE SMITH: That's, of course, what this sort of exchange is about. Thank you both for sharing your impressions of it. We appreciate it very much.

Japan and the United States became close political allies so quickly after the end of World War II, that it seemed as though the two countries had easily forgotten the war they had fought. Here Yoshikuni Igarashi offers a provocative look at how Japanese postwar society struggled to understand its war loss and the resulting national trauma, even as forces within the society sought to suppress these memories. Igarashi argues that Japan's nationhood survived the war's destruction in part through a popular culture that expressed memories of loss and devastation more readily than political discourse ever could. He shows how the desire to represent the past motivated Japan's cultural productions in the first twenty-five years of the postwar period.
Japanese war experiences were often described through narrative devices that downplayed the war's disruptive effects on Japan's history. Rather than treat these narratives as obstacles to historical inquiry, Igarashi reads them along with counter-narratives that attempted to register the original impact of the war. He traces the tensions between remembering and forgetting by focusing on the body as the central site for Japan's production of the past. This approach leads to fascinating discussions of such diverse topics as the use of the atomic bomb, hygiene policies under the U.S. occupation, the monstrous body of Godzilla, the first Western professional wrestling matches in Japan, the transformation of Tokyo and the athletic body for the 1964 Tokyo Olympics, and the writer Yukio Mishima's dramatic suicide, while providing a fresh critical perspective on the war legacy of Japan.

A small community in New Zealand is mourning the loss of a Kiwi-born Israeli soldier killed in action in Gaza.
Staff Sgt. Guy Boyland, 21, was killed Friday trying to raze tunnels in Gaza. He was laid to rest at his home Sunday on Kibbutz Ginosar in the Galilee.
Boyland was born in Taupo, a small lakeside community in New Zealand's north island.
His non-Jewish father Glenn married his Jewish-Israeli mother Adva, and the family moved to Israel when Guy was 5.
Boyland's 90-year-old grandfather, Jim Boyland, said the extended family was grieving the loss of the ginger-haired, guitar-playing kid.
"He was very gregarious," he said. "He never knew what life was all about, he never lived like an ordinary child. But he was very patriotic and wanted to be in the bomb squad."
He said Guy, who was just four months away from finishing his service as a combat engineer, had only returned to New Zealand once – about three years ago just before he was drafted into the IDF. "Glenn will stay there. They won't leave their son behind; they're committed to staying there in Israel."
A Facebook page was established in memory of Boyland. "We deeply appreciate the love and concern that help to shed a fraction of light upon these dark times," his sister, Kim, who served in the Israeli Air Force, wrote on her Facebook page. "Thank you so much."

But in the book or on the Web site, many doctors have expressed serious concerns about Trudeau's cures, saying his advice is not only misleading, it could actually hurt people.
"Stop taking nonprescription and prescription drugs," the book instructs. "Remember, drugs are poisons. This includes vaccines."
Trudeau says drugs are only OK in exceptional circumstances -- such as trauma or in surgery. His book makes other outrageous claims.
Trudeau writes in his book -- which has sold more than 5 million copies and will be listed as No. 1 on this Sunday's New York Times best-seller list for hardcover "advice" books -- that "the sun does not cause cancer. Sun block has been shown to cause cancer. The ingredients in sun block are now strongly believed to be the number one cause of skin cancer." He says "antiperspirants and deodorants contain deadly poisons," and that AIDS is "one of the greatest hoaxes and deceptions ever perpetrated on the American public."
The government and the pharmaceutical companies conspire to keep natural cures from you, he insists, to make money by selling medicine.
"It's so profitable to the companies that sell it," he says. "Chemotherapy kills more people than cancer itself."
Trudeau has no medical training and no particular health expertise. What he does have is a following, and that's what concerns so many in the established medical community.
"I tell people, 'Don't listen to me,'" Trudeau responds when asked why anyone should listen to him instead of their doctor. "I say, 'I'm reporting, and I'm giving you facts, make an informed decision.'"
Trudeau asks why anyone should listen to the Food and Drug Administration. "This is the same organization that said Vioxx is safe and effective," he said."Then they said, 'Oops, we were wrong.' Why should we listen to them?"
But some of Trudeau's claims do not stand scrutiny.
Asked for his "natural cure" for diabetes, Trudeau continually cites a study from the University of Calgary, which he says "has 25 years of research" of a natural way to make it so "diabetes can be, if not completely cured and wiped out in America, dramatically reduced by this herbal combination."
But when asked, the University of Calgary told ABC News that "there is no scientific evidence that any herbal remedy can cure any form of diabetes. In our review of the claims made by Trudeau's book, we have established that there have been no human studies conducted at the University of Calgary in the past 20 years on herbal remedies for diabetes."
Trudeau responded that he was "shocked and amazed" and that he would send us documentation he was referring to. We never did receive that documentation.
The book also claims: "All of the author's royalties on the sale of this book are being used to help fund the mission of educating people about natural health care and exposing corporate and government corruption."
But that "mission of educating people" includes paying for Trudeau's flights and luxury hotel stays as he jets around the country for interviews, he acknowledges.
He says it's "just like when you give money to the American Cancer Society, and the president flies on a corporate private Gulfstream [jet], stays in the Four Seasons hotel, your donation paid for that because he's -- in his opinion -- helping to spread the news about cancer."
But his latest, quite successful incarnation as an author isn't the final stage of Trudeau's career, he says.

Ready, set, go process meat! It's this hands-on approach that brings meat processing professionals to Iowa State University every summer for the Sausage and Processed Meats Short Course. The 30th annual short course July 14-18 attracted 76 participants from 24 U.S. states and five countries, according to Joe Cordray, ISU Extension meat specialist. Participants were divided into teams and, under the supervision of an instructor, formulated and prepared a processed meat product.
The course is designed for people with supervisory, production and technical responsibilities in commercial meat processing operations, Cordray said. It also is open to those in marketing and supplier industries.
The 2008 short course covered fresh, cooked, dry and semi-dry sausage products. Participants also learned about sectioned and formed cured meats, whole muscle precooked meats, reduced fat products and ethnic sausage products.
"Since Iowa State started its processed meat short course programs in 1979, over 10,000 people from the meat industry or an allied area have participated in one of our programs," Cordray said.
For more information, contact Cordray at email@example.com.

CINEMA Arjun keeps us guessing about his role in Mani Ratnam's Kadal
There's something interesting about Arjun in the Kadal promos. None can guess what role the actor, known for playing understated cameos when he is not bashing up baddies as hero, dons in Mani Ratnam's much-awaited release. Will he continue to revel in the dark shades that kept Venkat Prabhu's game of Mangatha alive till the end? At a recent event in the city, the director got his entire cast on stage to talk about the making of the movie. From the lead pair to Arjun and Arvind Swamy, all the actors spoke, but left us guessing about their roles and the storyline.

Thanks to everyone who attended the IDEO Make-a-thon this weekend!
Your enthusiasm, passion, creativity and skills helped make the prototype of this event spectacular and generated some truly original ideas.
We hope you enjoyed the event as much as we enjoyed putting it together.
If you want to continue work on the 8 OpenIDEO open-source projects from the IDEO Make-a-thon, please use the project brief links below. Please add your relevant links / files / images / photos, or videos from your projects. If you would like to leave comments and feedback about the event, please leave comments on this post.
Over the next few weeks we will be documenting our learnings from the prototype IDEO Make-a-thon on OpenIDEO Field Notes and IDEO Labs. Keep an eye out!
The photos of the Make-a-thon are up! Check them out here...
In case you missed it, here's a quick recap of all the IDEO Make-a-thon teams and projects:
Brief: The Future of the Village Fête
Starting with the question 'What is the urban fête?' The Village People team created a new grassroots movement where London locals can plan and stage their own fête interventions. Prototypes included a fantastic brand, video testimonials from locals and a concrete 'deaddrop' where locals can share digital fête music.
Team: @brendandawes, @neilchurcher, Charlene Lam, Emilie Sheehan, Nazia Parvez, @robinhowie, Lawrence Willmott, Ivo Vos, Chris Grantham.
Brief: Boris Bikes for Tourists
Team Xtreme were tasked with improving the Boris Bike scheme for London visitors. They created a number of innovative prototypes including a receipt docket that gives you a sightseeing cycle route and a custom clip that can be used to mount cameras, maps, flowers to your Boris Bike.
Look out for the soon-to-be-released 3D product on thingiverse.com!
Team: @basil, @james_croft, @falkowate, @ithinkihaveacat, @bedford2, @hadleybeeman, @jude.pullen
The Karma Comedians team sought to bring locals together through a skills sharing interactive phone booth. They created a seamless experience prototype by joining up technologies such as Twillio, Skype and the iPad.
Check out the open source version of the code here: https://github.com/andypiper/karma
Team: @andypiper, @dnw1710, Haley Stopford, @tburrellsaward, @vbrooksy, Steve O'Connor.
The Bikewell team looked at cycle safety on London streets and created a service to teach people about cycle safety as well as a series of smart bike lights that react to cars when they're too close, or post messages to drivers in traffic.
Checkout the video of the working bike light prototype here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HIETDClOn9o
Team: @roseofwinter, Josah Emsley, Larissa Seilern, @cactuslouise, Oliver Poyntz, @jeremy_ih
As part of the Make-a-thon, we also worked with 4 briefs for Amnesty in tackling unlawful detention.
Thanks to @amy_bonsall and @AmnestyInternational.
Brief: Amnesty Advice Platform and Amnesty Action on Google
Protect Yourself created a live prototype of an Amnesty Checklist platform where activists, family and friends can seek advice about unlawful detention. The team worked with Amnesty subject matter experts to create the content for these checklists as well as building the platform to host them.
Take a look at the live prototype! http://hackweekend.info/
Team: @bengmorgan, @tezzutezzu, @sabrinatucci, @hisposyrian, @danieltownsend
The team built an alert app and platform for signaling at risk situations using Google Maps and HTML5 technologies. Accessible via mobile browsers by those at risk, individuals can hit the alert button to register when they're in danger of being taken, sending their location and details. A group of volunteers monitor the platform and in turn alert the relevant organizations.
Check out the live panic button: http://panicbutton.herokuapp.com/
And the monitoring interface: http://panicbutton.herokuapp.com/notifications
Team: Zaynab Leeya, @biancaUXD, Jill Irving
The team built an app to help people record and upload human rights violations. Using HTML5 and Phonegap, they were able to create a working app for the iPhone that allows users to record video or photos and upload details about the imagery to a secure server.
Team: @iliasbartolini, @gridinoc, Ralf Rebmann, @tristamsparks
A web service for determining if an `at risk` activist has gone offline and may need help. The service monitors a user's social media usage and alerts those in their network if they haven't registered any activity for a period of time. This is a subtle way of detecting when someone may be missing, without relying on the person to be proactive.
Team: @ideesabsurdes, @joelanman, @junkafarian
Hi Charlene, Thanks for your kind words!
Keep us updated on your progress with the Village Fête ideas. We'd love to hear if anything gets implemented at Clerkenwell Design Week.
Thanks for the recap of all the challenges, Haiyan. There was so much going on during the Make-A-Thon that I'm enjoying having time to read back over each project and reflecting! Can we have an 'OpenIDEO' style page for each project for people to build/comment on?
More detailed write-up for Karma Phone - http://andypiper.co.uk/2012/02/22/ideomake-1/
Hi Louise, glad to hear that you're enjoying the recap! We're in the process of figuring out the best way to keep telling stories and updates now that the Make-a-thon has ended. We'll keep everyone posted – and we may even ask for community help too! Stay tuned, and thanks again for your enthusiasm and efforts at the event.
Nice write-up, Andy! I finally posted my recap of the make-a-thon and a bit on the future of the village fete brief: http://www.creativeclerkenwell.com/recap-ideo-london-make-a-thon/
Will add more links and resources to the brief page.
Do you know the folks at Good for Nothing? http://www.goodfornothing.co/ More smart people doing good things. They're having a social at The Artisan in Clerkenwell Wednesday night. Potential partners for future make-a-thons?
Meanwhile at Amnesty International... Lots and lots of internal presentations on the great work produced at the hackathon, this end. Much excitement within the organisation in terms of what is possible and which campaign we focus on, next. We've also appointed someone to help us take one or more of these prototypes to launch-ready status - more on that soon. In addition to internal developments, an increasing number of organisations outside of Amnesty have expressed a desire to get on board, which is fantastic news. We'll be meeting up with Thoughtworks, later today, to discuss how we can continue working alongside them and, funnily enough, also have a coffee lined up with Good For Nothing, as a result of a tip-off from someone at the Make-a-thon.
Great to hear, Owen! Looking forward to hearing next steps... good luck with onwards developments.
As part of the community that came up with these ideas, I thank you so much for making such awesome prototypes!! It makes our work so much more rewarding!
Very inspiring to see that the community's hard work on the platform is valued and taken into consideration in one step further, as in this make-a-thon, congrats!
I am wondering as a passionate OpenIDEO'er, how can we participate in a make-a-thon like this one? Is it open to take part or strictly for the OpenIDEO + IDEO employees?
Would love to know as I'd be really excited in participating in a future make-a-thon and learn from all of you first hand!
Hi Ana Cecilia, great questions! This first Make-a-thon was a very early prototype for us, one that we hope to refine and work on again in the future. With limited time and resources for planning this time around, we weren't able to involve the community as much as we would have liked. So stay tuned, and thanks again for your enthusiasm and interest. We'll keep everyone posted as plans for our next one take shape.
Thanks for answering so quickly Ashley!
That would be great, thanks - I would love to know more on your future plans for these events. Especially because I see this as an important parallel and complementary activity to participating on OpenIDEO online.
The Karma Comedians idea is such a neat one! It could really be helpful in cities that have a lot of population turnover--towns full of students and young professionals, like Boston for instance.
Hi everyone! My name is Wojtek and I'm from Warsaw, Poland. We are organizing a similar event to IDEO make-a-thon, but we called it a hackathon. It will take place on 21-22 April. Our main goal is to design ideal exhibit for Copernicus Science Centre in Warsaw (http://www.kopernik.org.pl/en/). Of course, we will use design thinking tools as well. In this event three different groups take part: animators from Copernicus Science Centre, members of Hackerspace Warsaw, and members of Design Thinking Warsaw group. You can follow us on twitter #HackKopernik.

EarSonics SM2 are the universal in-ears you need. Thanks to their ergonomic cushions, they provide instant and easy fit to all kind of ears.

China has adopted the EU's slogan of 'common destiny' for creating a Eurasian economy. Yet the EU's many new woes call for redefining the core values, or identity, of its union.
The European Union must be doing something right. Its oft-repeated slogan about a "common destiny" for its 500 million people has become the catchphrase for China in a campaign to bind its neighbors into a community.

A court here today fixed February 20 for seeking clarification from Delhi Police on whether any fresh evidence has emerged against top LeT bomb expert Abdul Karim Tunda who has been chargesheeted in a case lodged in 1994 in connection with recovery of explosive substances.
Additional Sessions Judge Bharat Parashar, who was scheduled to hear the matter today, fixed it for February 20 as the prosecutor was unavailable to advance the submissions. The court had earlier told the special cell of Delhi Police that if there was no new evidence against Tunda, then it will be a "futile exercise" to proceed with the case.
The court had also said that in the case, in which a supplementary charge sheet was recently filed against Tunda, some of the accused arrested earlier have already been acquitted by the trial court. "If the evidence is the same and the judgement has attained finality, I cannot do anything...why should we go on a futile exercise"? the judge had said. The court had asked the police whether the grounds, on which accused were acquitted earlier, have been covered in the supplementary charge sheet filed against Tunda.
Police had filed its supplementary charge sheet before the court against Tunda in the case under stringent anti-terror law Terrorist and Disruptive Activities (Prevention) Act (TADA) and Explosive Substances Act. Tunda, one of the 20 terrorists India had asked Pakistan to hand over after the 26/11 Mumbai attacks, is currently in judicial custody in connection with various terror-related cases lodged against him.
Police had told the court that 72-year-old Tunda was declared a proclaimed offender in the case relating to recovery of explosive substances lodged in 1994 at south Delhi's Malviya Nagar Police Station. Police had also said some accused were arrested on January 17, 1994 and 150 kg explosives and six daggers recovered from their possession.
Tunda, arrested from Indo-Nepal border on August 16 last year, is suspected to be have been involved in 40 bombings in India.
