Arash Markazi: The Clippers have guaranteed Jamal Crawford's contract next season. They're shopping him but won't deal him if they don't get a good deal.: 2 more rumors
Dan Woike: No surprise, but source says Clippers won't be releasing Jamal Crawford before his contract becomes fully guaranteed for next season.
The Clippers' Crawford showed off his game Memorial Day weekend in Tacoma, Wash., (remember Crawford is from the Seattle area) at Celtics' guard Isaiah Thomas' Memorial Day Zeke-End Basketball Tournament. The best part of this video is when Crawfords decides to try and nutmeg (go between the legs) of Boston's Kelly Olynyk. Aside this one defender, Crawford is just too much for everyone involved. Watching NBA guys destroy lesser talent is one of the joys of summer.
Playing with the Clippers the past three seasons has been amazing from a family standpoint because our kids were welcomed in the locker room after games and they became friends too. Chris Paul would pick up his son and my son from school because they were in the same class and they would go to his house sometimes, and sometimes I would pick the kids up and they would come to my house. And both of our sons loved playing with Matt Barnes' twins so it was a great family atmosphere and sometimes that gets lost when you hear about trades. It's part of the business, and we get compensated well, but we're not robots. We have feelings and emotions, and we care about our family just as much as the next person, so you're not just thinking about where you might end up, but how that will affect your kids and family. When trade talks come up during the season it can affect how you play, but I've learned that you just have to be patient, understanding and prepared for anything.: 2 more rumors
Jamal Crawford available?
The Clippers are also exploring trade options for Jamal Crawford, according to sources, and one possibility is trading Crawford and C.J. Wilcox, the team's 2014 first round pick, to the Denver Nuggets for Wilson Chandler. The Clippers inquired about Chandler last season but nothing materialized.: 2 more rumors
Brad Turner: Clippers guard Jamal Crawford has hired Wasserman Media Group to represent him, sources. Crawford had been with Andy Miller.

Yet, the Clippers are often referred to as a pretender rather than a contender. Critics say they have no shot at hoisting the Larry O'Brien trophy as currently constructed. "They haven't made enough moves to improve their roster." "They aren't good enough on the defensive end." "They can't win in the playoffs." The players hear these naysayers, and are motivated by the doubts. They also know that the only way to silence these individuals is by winning in the postseason. "I think we've been in overlooked in some ways, but that's okay with us," Crawford told Basketball Insiders in a phone interview. "We're one of those teams that will ultimately be judged by our playoff success. We can win 50 or 60 games and people are still going to say, 'Okay, well let's see what they do in the playoffs.' We've kind of graduated to one of those teams – we understand that. We just have to keep building good habits and go into the playoffs with momentum, everyone healthy and everyone playing the right way."
"I think our continuity is an advantage," Crawford said. "If you look at all of the great teams in the '80s and '90s – and even the Spurs in this generation – they all stayed together and played together for years. That was their advantage, knowing where each other would be on the floor, understanding how to play with each other and having that chemistry. Chemistry is so underrated. You can make moves – sometimes, you have to make moves, I understand that – but sometimes the best move is not making any move at all. For us, we feel like we have a good group of guys, we have a great coaching staff, we have a great organization and we have that great chemistry. We're all on the same page, we know how to play with each other and we know what the other is going to do even if we don't say a word."
Chris Forsberg: Isaiah Thomas was on only 100 of 130 ballots. A look at the full voting. http://t.co/9VBSEMbpnX
Jason Jones: Toronto guard Lou Williams wins Sixth Man of the Year. Isaiah Thomas is second. Jamal Crawford third
Louis Williams named Sixth Man of the Year
The Toronto Raptors' Lou Williams, who averaged a career-high 15.5 points this season and helped Toronto win a franchise-record 49 games, is the winner of the 2014-15 Kia NBA Sixth Man Award as the league's best player in a reserve role, the NBA announced today. The 6-1 guard becomes the first Raptors player to earn the honor. Williams, in his 10th NBA season and first with the Raptors, amassed 78 first-place votes and 502 total points from a panel of 130 sportswriters and broadcasters throughout the United States and Canada. Isaiah Thomas of the Boston Celtics finished second with 324 points (33 first-place votes), and two-time winner Jamal Crawford of the Los Angeles Clippers was third with 131 points (eight first-place votes).
Another player who was even more dazzling was the late "Pistol" Pete Maravich. He played in a different era, toiling 10 years from 1970-80. During that time he averaged 24.2 points while compiling 15,948 career points. Heading into Monday's game against the Denver Nuggets, Crawford needed just five points to tie Maravich, six to pass him. That would only put Crawford into 110th on the all-time list. But to him, it's still a "cool" thing because of who Maravich was to basketball. "Yeah, that's crazy," Crawford said. "That's unbelievable. That is a name. That's a name I used to hear about a long time ago. Obviously, the way he was ahead of his time dribbling the ball, passing the ball, the way he played the game was a style all his own."
Jamal Crawford returned for his first game in more than a month in the Clippers' 105-100 win over the Lakers on Tuesday, scoring four points in 19 minutes. "I was rusty," Crawford said. "I looked and it said I played 19 minutes but it felt like 35 minutes. That's to be expected. That's my first time playing 5-on-5. I just started running this past week. That's what these games are for. I'm a big-picture guy."
Arash Markazi: I'm hearing Jamal Crawford has been cleared to play tonight. I reported last week this was his target return date.
Dan Woike: All signs pointing to Jamal Crawford returning tonight against the Lakers. He's been out since March 4 with a deep calf bruise.
Finally, after missing the past 17 games with a calf injury, the possibility of Clippers sixth-man Jamal Crawford playing Tuesday night against the Lakers is strong. Coach Doc Rivers said after the Clippers' 106-78 rout of the Lakers on Sunday that Crawford is "close" and even considered playing Sunday. Crawford at 16.4 points per game is the team's third-leading scorer. The Clippers went 12-5 in his absence, but four of those losses were by two, three, five and eight points. With Crawford's clutch shooting, one has to wonder how many of those close calls might have gone the Clippers' way. One thing's certain: Rivers and the players will be welcoming Crawford back with open arms.
The Clippers have managed to go 10-5 so far without Crawford, but that doesn't make it easier to have to watch. Crawford hopes he won't be watching for much longer, as he hopes to get a couple games in before the postseason begins. "That's definitely the goal, to play as soon as possible and be smart obviously," Crawford said. "It's not like a strain where you can come back early and hurt it. It's healed, but now you've got to get your wind and game shape and not compensate somewhere else."
Arash Markazi: Jamal Crawford looked good in practice today. No official return date set but sources said Tuesday is still the tentative plan.

How did three Danes end up being tortured in Lebanon?
The army officer and alleged collusion in Yemen
30 Apr 2014 00:18 GMT | Asia
Pakistani authorities should investigate the country's powerful military and intelligence agency for human rights abuses against journalists following attacks on leading reporters, Amnesty International has said.
In a report published on Wednesday, called "A bullet has been chosen for you: Attacks on journalists in Pakistan", the human rights group documents the threat it says the country's media faces from political parties, armed groups, Pakistan's intelligence agencies and other sources.
At least 34 journalists may have been killed in Pakistan because of their work since 2008, the group said, and eight have been killed since Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif was elected in May 2013.
"A critical step will be for Pakistan to investigate its own military and intelligence agencies and ensure that those responsible for human rights violations against journalists are brought to justice," said David Griffiths, Amnesty's Deputy Asia Pacific Director.
"This will send a powerful signal to those who target journalists that they no longer have free reign."
The Amnesty report follows an attack on a high-profile political talk show host, who was shot and wounded in the city of Karachi earlier this month.
ISI accused
Television anchor Hamid Mir survived a recent attack and his employer, the privately owned Geo News television channel, has since accused the military's Inter-Services Intelligence (ISI) spy agency of orchestrating it. The army has denied the allegations and demanded the channel be shut down.
Weeks earlier, another TV anchor, Raza Rumi, was attacked in the city of Lahore. He has since fled to the United States.
Criticising the ISI or the army is a widely-perceived a taboo in Pakistan and the confrontation between Geo and the military has sparked debate about press freedom in the country.
Amnesty's report is based on research into 74 cases where journalists have been targeted for their reporting. The group says authorities investigated only 34 of the cases and only one person was convicted.
Source: Agencies
New report finds almost no one is punished for the daily threats and deadly attacks faced by journalists in Pakistan.

X Server 1.11 Breaks The Video Driver ABI
Published on 23 May 2011 02:32 PM EDT
Written by
Michael Larabel
19 Comments
While not exactly uncommon for a major X.Org Server update, the video driver ABI for the DDX drivers will break with the forthcoming xorg-server 1.11 release. This means that for those using the proprietary graphics drivers, namely the AMD Catalyst driver, you may be stuck waiting a couple of months for support.
Committed (in
this Git commit
) to the xorg-server tree this afternoon is a bump to the video driver ABI (ABI_VIDEODRV_VERSION) after developers noticed the video drivers built against the ABI of X.Org Server 1.10 are now producing a segmentation fault when running the latest server code. Developers have tracked down the change causing the seg-fault and it's intentional.
While the open-source drivers are quick to adopt to major version changes of the X Server, it's with the proprietary drivers where it can be a problem, even with a small change such as this break to ABI version 11. Fortunately, at least on the NVIDIA side, they are generally quick to at least put out a beta or pre-release driver to support the new ABI version. In the case of AMD, however, that's where it usually takes a couple of months.
In fact, it's usually not until the next Ubuntu Linux release with the new xorg-server that AMD puts out a supportive driver of that kernel / xorg-server. Even then it's usually not on time to the point where
AMD almost always has to pre-release Catalyst drivers to Canonical
so their binary blob works in time.
In the case of Ubuntu 11.10, Canonical is planning to still ship X.Org Server 1.10 and not the forthcoming 1.11 series. This means there won't be this video ABI break to worry about this time around, but there may be kernel breaks to deal with as Ubuntu 11.10 will be shipping with the
Linux 2.6.40 kernel
or potentially even Linux 2.6.41.
Still, I'd not expect AMD to officially support X.Org Server 1.11 until at least this October or November. The upstream xorg-server 1.11 release is slated to occur in August. It would certainly be a pleasant surprise though to see AMD support the newest kernels and X Server releases in a more timely manner.

Dr. Bogan's porcelain veneers did wonders to my teeth. I've been a long-time smoker and my teeth were hideously discolored. The veneers felt like I have on brand-new teeth. Thank you doc!
Thanks to Dr. Bogan, I now have healthy teeth and gums. I just love how brilliant my smile is.

This is genius yet simple. My setup is at a church. This stereo pair is running a digital music hymnal player. No imperfections in audio. It's running 80 feet. 40 of that is right next to a 200 watt power line running the projector. It's also running with another balun that is video left and right audio. This is on the music box side. I actually used the pigtails as jumpers to a wall plate with dual 1/4". I cut off the RCAs and soldered the wires directly to the wall plate connections. It works great!

Albergo Giardino
The Giardino Hotel is located in the middle of the residential area of Ascona, in the perfectly quiet parklike landscape, just next door to Hole 3 of the Golf Course, one of the ten most beautiful in Europe. A modern pleasure harbor is situated 300 metres from the Hotel. The Golf-Clubhouse and Ascona's traffic free "Piazza" are reached in a few minutes by Giardino's own bikes or by the free shuttle bus. With its pleasant temperature of 24 degrees Celsius, this pool enables you to comfortably swim your lengths or alternatively enjoy the sunshine and some relaxation. For a safe splash, a separate pool is available for our tiny guests! The Garden, in Italian "giardino", is the centre and the surroundings at the same time: the garden grows into the Hotel and the Hotel grows out into the garden. The dreamlike mediterranean grounds are characterized by waterlilies, plants, sculptures, bridges and trees... the garden of Aprodite at Lago Maggiore! The decoration of the rooms differs pleasantly from the usual hotel standard by being furnished in a Mediterranean style. It was Carlo Rampazzi, Ascona's internationally renowned designer, who has completed the Hotel's incomparable interior architecture towards a synthesis of the arts. All rooms have a marble bathroom with two wash basins, a separate Closomat (Shower-WC) and bidet and most suites have two bathrooms.

Finally! SecDef signs Clarifying Guidance Regarding Open Source Software
It is official! As of the 16th of October 2009, the United States Department of Defense recognizes Open Source software as Commodity, Off the Shelf (COTS) software, eligible for purchase, read implementation, under the purchasing rules of the Department.
Why is this a big deal? Because, until this point, using Open Source software in any form within the DOD and associated programs required a great deal of scrutiny and in many cases, it meant that it could not be used. Now, before you jump up and tell me about this or that program, yes, Open Source software is used in a number of areas – many in custom applications, but the use is program by program, at the discretion of the program office. Just because on program office says yes to Open Office, does not mean that another program office can use Open Office automatically, even if the mission statement is essentially the same. I am greatly simplifying the issue – the intricacies of the Federal Acquisition Register are frankly byzantine even for those that understand it. This now allows program and departmental level organizations to be able to compete, in a true, fair and open competition the best solution for the mission, and that is a big deal, because up until now, that has not been the case.
As a side note, this memo was discussed in a meeting of Open Source folks I attended in DC more than two years ago. Then it was stuck in the Secretary of the Navy's office, having been drafted by the staff of the Office of the Naval CIO. The big question everyone was asking at the time was not when would SecNav sign it, but when would SecDef sign it.
This has been a long time coming.
David Lane, KG4GIY is a member of Linux Journal's Editorial Advisory Panel and the Control Op for Linux Journal's Virtual Ham Shack
BTW, COTS stands for Commercial of the Shelf, not Commodity, of the Shelf.
David, your a little off base on this one.
Being a computer scientist for the Army, I've been embroiled in this issue for about 4 years now. The fact of the matter is that open source software is authorized for use, and has been for quite some time in the DoD. As far back as I can remember. The DOD CIO is stating that there are many people and organizations within the DoD that are misinterpreting the regulations and guidance concerning open source software. The CIO is trying to clarify DoD guidance in OSS use. Most of the misinterpretation has been negative. What the CIO is saying is that there is no regulation that says you can't use OSS, and if you do use OSS it is subject to the same controls that COTS is. The CIO is not changing any policies, she's trying to change people's perceptions. In a nutshell the CIO is saying that if OSS can support your program as well or better than proprietary software, and its as cost effective or more cost effective then you should consider OSS. Please read the memo and the very extensive and enlightening FAQ on the DOD CIO's FOSS site at the below URL.

It is difficult to see how America can be an unbiased mediator in the Middle East. Congress has always supported Israel to the hilt and it is surprising why Palestinians would trust American mediator efforts. I assume that the new Secretary of State John Kerry is presenting himself, not America, as a person to be trusted, on behalf of America regardless of what Congress has done to favor one side over the other. Kudos goes to Mr. Kerry to even get the Israelis and Palestinians to the table.

The reason the U.S. is not seen as a good mediator is because our presense in the Mid-East is one of the major problems these regimes have with us. That and of course our support for Israel. It would be a good idea for countries in Europe to get more involved, however I still believe that the term Middle East Peace is a contradiction. Middle East and peace go together about as well as oil and water.

Israel builds houses in "occupied territories" because they do not
consider these areas occupied, but rather part of their country now. Israel
captured the land following war with Jordan, Syria, and other surrounding
countries during the 7 day war. These captured lands are critical to
Israel's defense as they serve to buffer against Arab countries that
continue to declare that Israel should be wiped off the map and destroyed.
Perhaps if Iran would stop the rhetoric against Israel, stop sponsoring terrorism against Israel and the US, demonstrate efforts towards peace in the Middle East, then Israel and the US would trust Iran more.

Want to up your writing game? Here's a novel way!July 3, 2015
Most serious writers have joined a writing group at some time, meeting on-line or face-to-face. But have you ever thought of forming a book reading group - to improve your story writing skills?
It's another thing entirely.
A book reading club will not only open your eyes to what your fellow writers think about your work. More usefully, it will show you what your readers are looking for! Novelist Anna Castle tells us how to do it.
It's a familiar lament: writers don't read enough. I can't even enjoy mysteries - once my favorite genre - the way I did before I started writing them. The parallel advice is equally familiar: writers must read widely across genres and deeply within their own. Besides, isn't a love of reading what made us start writing in the first place?
I tried to recapture the magic by joining a mystery book club, but found the comments of the other members shallow and/or confusing. Those non-writers couldn't tell me why they liked what they liked or why they sometimes read the last chapter first. (Shocking!)
The solution is obvious: form a book club for writers. You can rediscover the fun of reading fiction while improving your writing craft.
Here's how to get started.
1. Create a small pool
You want members who write what you write, generally speaking. All genres have conventions, aka reader expectations, even literary fiction. You'll explore genre-specific topics like the sexual tension in a romance or red herrings in a mystery. The ideal group will include members who write in different sub-genres. Why? I explain that in the next section.
The club should have between four and eight members. Fewer and you feel a bit forlorn; more and you break into sub-groups. Whether they're published or unpublished writers doesn't matter, but you do want people who are serious about writing and finishing works of fiction.
How do you fill your roster? Try Meetup.com. Ask prospective members to send you a link to their book or some sample pages to make sure they're legit. Or an ad or news item in your local newspaper should bring in members.
2. Cast a wide net
Read everything from psycho-killer thrillers to craft cozies. (Substitute your genre's equivalent.) You'll learn something from each one, especially with a passionate advocate in the group. Take turns choosing next month's book or story and make an effort to climb out of your reading ruts.
It may surprise you to discover how some conventions merge from sweet into salty or from silly into satanic. Debating the limits of gore, sex, humor, polemics, fantasy, or soliloquy will help you understand who your readers are and why they like what they like. More importantly, it will help you understand why you write what you write. And how to write it better.
This is the very best part about analyzing books or stories with other writers. It's easy to dismiss genres we don't like as trivial or low-brow, until you're drawn into a discussion with a person you respect who really loves the stuff.
By noting what your fellow readers enjoy or hate in a story you'll gain a wealth of tips for writing your own story in a way that will engage the reader.
3. Don't dish
OK, you can dish - a little. We're only human. But the purpose of the club is not to trash books or stories by people you disdain; it's to develop your critical faculty and become a better writer. That may have the pleasant side effect of making you a nicer person at writers' conferences - a result not to be sneered at.
We have a rule in my own group of not reading books by friends or members of local writers' groups, for two reasons: first, to avoid the pitfall of personality, and second, to allow us to express our opinions without constraint.
Famous Local Author may be a wonderful person who tirelessly serves the whole writing community, yet you may have legitimate issues with her antiquated ideas about pace. Overwrought by double macchiatos, you may say things that could be hurtful if carried back to her, as they inevitably will be.
So don't read Famous Local Author's books in your club. Read the similar books of a stranger to address those pacing problems.
4. Establish ground rules
You want these so you can break up heated digressions by saying, "Wait! Wait! We're supposed to be talking about the book!" Rules give you something to turn to quickly before everyone goes back to arguing about Famous Local Author's recent divorce.
Of course, if everyone in your group is a fellow writer and you've agreed to read each others' books, you must have rules. But you really need just three: be nice, be candid, be constructive!
Try to get your club to focus on the fundamental elements of fiction: character, plot, setting, and language. Given the conventions of the sub-genre, how did the writer handle these components? What worked? What didn't? Why or why not? Be as specific as you can.
Be polite. Try to go around the circle once, giving each person a chance to deliver their comments uninterrupted, before breaking into a free-for-all. This is nearly impossible, but writers need goals, right? At least give the slow talkers some extra room. They might well have the key to unlock your current block and they'll stop coming if they never get to talk.
5. Keep it rolling
Here a few more tips for success from my own experience:
- Meet in some neutral place: a coffee shop, quiet bar, or cheap restaurant where they don't mind lingerers. You'll want about 2 hours and you have to be able to hear each other. Meeting in people's houses gets to be a burden. You have to clean and fix food, and evict your co-habitants. We're writers, remember? Who's going to do that cleaning?
- Make sure you're all on the same page with respect to alcohol, if that's going to be part of the mix. Sober people find drunk people very boring and drinkers consider teetotalers to be wet blankets.
- You need an organizer and a backup. Do once-weekly reminders. Be aware that some group members may be social media dinosaurs and keep communications simple. Email is probably best.
- Pick a regular meeting time. Once a month is plenty. Once you succeed in negotiating a schedule, write it in stone. Trying to re-arrange meetings to accommodate special cases will derail your group.
- You may have to reserve your meeting place. My local coffee shop has a room for such things, but you have to book it months ahead.
- Keep the numbers up.
Don't wait too long to recruit a new member after someone drops out.
But don't stress if you're down to just two for a time, doggedly meeting
every month, while Jane spends a summer abroad and Harry gets through
that consulting gig. They'll be grateful you kept the group alive when
they come back. And so will you.
And approach it both as a reader and a writer. Ask yourself: as a reader, what do I like or dislike about this? And as an author, how would I have written it? You'll soon discover that it doesn't matter what you, the author, were trying to achieve. It's what the reader perceives that matters.
A book reading club can open your eyes to what your readers are looking for!
What has been your own experience of reading - or writing - groups? Have they helped the development of your writing skills? Or hindered it? What are the do's and don'ts of success when commenting on other peoples' stories - or when exposing your own work? Share your thoughts in a comment below. Every comment gets a fast, thoughtful response!

U.S. aims to crack down on 'novelty' motorcycle helmets
By Susan Heavey
(Reuters) – U.S. transportation regulators on Wednesday
called for stronger rules for motorcycle helmets, proposing
additional safety requirements in an effort to crack down on
"novelty" helmets that do not meet federal standards.
The Department of Transportation said such uncertified
helmets are unsafe and do not protect riders in crashes despite
being sold and marketed for use on the road.
Enbridge to pay $75 mln to settle 2010 oil spill -Michigan officials
WASHINGTON (Reuters) – Enbridge Energy and its
affiliates will pay $75 million to settle a 2010 oil spill into
Michigan's Talmadge Creek and Kalamazoo River that dumped
800,000 gallons of oil, state officials said on Wednesday.
"The agreement will finalize cleanup and restoration
requirements for areas affected by the spill," that stemmed from
an Enbridge owned and operated pipeline, Michigan Attorney
General Bill Schuette and Michigan Department of Environmental
Quality Director Dan Wyant said in a statement.
Bill Clinton defends charity, says won't give up paid speeches
WASHINGTON (Reuters) – Former U.S. President Bill Clinton said on Monday he will continue to give paid speeches while his wife, Hillary Clinton, runs for president amid criticism of the income her family draws from people, including foreigners, with business before the U.S. government.
He also said he may consider stepping down or taking "less of an executive role" at the Clinton Foundation should his wife become president. The Clintons' political opponents have criticized the foundation for accepting funding from foreign governments for its endowment and for its charitable work abroad.
Bill Clinton says nothing 'sinister' in foreign donations to foundation
WASHINGTON, May 4 (Reuters) – Former U.S. President Bill
Clinton defended his charitable foundation's acceptance of large
foreign donations on Monday, thrusting himself into a
controversy that is weighing on the presidential candidacy of
his wife, Hillary Clinton.
"I don't think there's anything sinister in trying to get
wealthy people in countries that are seriously involved in
development to spend their money wisely in a way that helps poor
people and lifts them up," Clinton told NBC News from Kenya, in
an interview taped over the weekend.
White House 'confident' on finalizing details for Iran nuclear deal
WASHINGTON (Reuters) – The White House on Friday pressed its case for a deal to curb Iran's nuclear program, expressing confidence in hammering out final details as President Barack Obama reached out to leaders in Congress, where U.S. lawmakers remain cautious.
Obama called the four top leaders in the U.S. House of Representatives and the U.S. Senate to discuss the framework agreement announced on Thursday by negotiators in Switzerland, a spokesman said. The agreement lays the groundwork for a final deal to be laid out by a June 30 deadline.
Obama calls Iran deal the best option, instead of another war
WASHINGTON (Reuters) – U.S. President Barack Obama on Thursday touted the framework agreement on Iran's nuclear program as a "good deal" that would block Tehran from obtaining an atomic weapon and make the world safer – a better option than another Middle East war.
Shortly after the agreement was announced in Switzerland after marathon negotiations between Iran and world powers, Obama strode into the White House Rose Garden to promote the deal to the American public and skeptical U.S. lawmakers.
South African comedian to replace Jon Stewart on 'The Daily Show'
By Susan Heavey
(Reuters) – Comedy Central said on Monday it has chosen South African comedian Trevor Noah, a relative newcomer to U.S. television, to replace Jon Stewart on its parody newscast, "The Daily Show."
In a statement, Viacom Inc-owned Comedy Central said it would announce the launch date for the new show later.
Senate Democrat Reid to retire; wants Schumer as next leader
WASHINGTON (Reuters) – U.S. Senate Democratic Leader Harry Reid said on Friday he will retire next year and threw his weight behind New York Senator Chuck Schumer to replace him as leader after he leaves office.
Reid will stay in his post for another 22 months but his announcement positions Schumer, a New Yorker and Wall Street ally, as his heir apparent as the party gears up to try to regain control of the Senate in elections next year.
Top U.S. Senate Democrat Harry Reid to retire after 2016
WASHINGTON (Reuters) – U.S. Senate Democratic leader Harry Reid said on Friday he will not seek re-election next year, leaving Congress after 30 years and complicating Democrats' efforts to retake control of the Senate in 2016.
Reid, who represents Nevada, said in a video message that his decision to retire from the Senate was not due to a recent accident or his party's loss of control of the chamber in the November congressional elections.
Obama to host Japan's Abe to discuss security, trade
WASHINGTON (Reuters) – U.S. President Barack Obama will host Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe at the White House next month for talks expected to focus on their joint response to China's rising power and efforts to finalize a major Asia-Pacific trade pact.
Abe, who will spend eight days in the United States, will go to the White House on April 28 to discuss a range of economic and security issues as well as a formal state dinner, the White House said on Monday.
