Iraq reporter killed by presidential guard: officials
Published on Mar 22, 2014 10:44 PM
BAGHDAD (AFP) - An officer in a brigade responsible for guarding a Baghdad compound controlled by ailing Iraqi President Jalal Talabani killed a journalist after an argument on Saturday, officials said.
It was not immediately clear what sparked the exchange that led to the shooting in the upscale Jadriyah neighbourhood, but the Kurdish peshmerga captain fled the scene shortly after Mohammed Bidaiwi, editor-in-chief of Radio Free Iraq, was killed.
"The peshmerga captain killed him after he stopped him (Bidaiwi) from getting into the compound," said a journalist at Radio Free Iraq who declined to be identified.
"We did not move the corpse yet... The officer responsible has disappeared." An interior ministry official confirmed the account, while Prime Minister Nuri al-Maliki's official spokesman called for the officer to be arrested and taken to court.

Gossip Girl
Leighton Meester: The New Face of Missoni?
Will we be seeing a walk-off on the set of Gossip Girl any time soon? Five days after the announcement that Blake Lively was named the new face of Chanel — Seriously, can the girl get any luckier? — InTouch Weekly is reporting that Leighton Meester (Blair) has landed her own modeling gig as well! A close friend of the star has revealed that Leighton is set to become the new face of Italian fashion house Missoni. "Leighton is thrilled to be working with Missoni!" says the source. "She has such great style and has always loved their clothes." With the brand's trademark patterns and fearless use of color, Missoni almost seems a better fit for the likes of, well... Vanessa. But let's be honest, we'd rather see L's shining face staring at us from the pages of a magazine.
What to you think, fans? Who's set to become fashion's biggest new face?

Looking for my partner in crime
I am a hard worker who likes to achieve goals. I do take time to to enjoy life. I love to go to a gun range and shoot as I am a pretty good marksman. Fishing is something I enjoy as well and am pretty good at it as well. I thoroughly enjoy the outdoors as well. I enjoy cooking and once worked for Disney cooking for them. I still enjoy it even though I don't do it professionally any longer. A good way to probably describe me would be strong and quiet, but a gentleman as well. I have other things I enjoy doing as well, but I'll save that for a message instead. I am looking for someone who has a good heart, is kind, and has goals. I'm really looking for my partner in crime, someone I can share my life with, and vice versa. My biggest reason for being here is I prefer not to meet people through/at work. So, I'm greatly limited in my options. Feel free to send me a message or wink.

A new report suggests that while growing personnel and construction costs are a factor in the rising price of public higher education, a decline in state funding is the real culprit.

Greatest Game: Remembering the '58 NFL title game
After the turnover-plagued start, Unitas hit Moore for 60 yards, setting up the Colts at the New York 25.
But Steve Myhra, who had made just four of 10 field goals in the regular season, missed a 32-yard field goal and then had one blocked by Huff after the Giants were offside on the first attempt.
On the next drive, Gifford's 38-yard run set up Summerall's 36-yard field goal to give the Giants a 3-0 lead with 2:02 left in the first quarter.
For most of the next two periods, Baltimore dominated.
Gifford's fumble at his 18 set up Baltimore's first TD, a 2-yard run by Ameche.
After Jackie Simpson fumbled Don Chandler's punt to give the Giants the ball at the Colts 10, Gifford gave it right back, Don Joyce recovering at the 14. "Not my greatest game," Gifford says now. "I fumbled going out and I fumbled going in."
Unitas then drove Baltimore 86 yards, finding Berry from 15 yards and the Colts led 14-3 at the half.
Baltimore seemed ready to put the game away midway through the third quarter, driving to a first down at the Giants 3.
The Colts were stuffed on three straight plays, then went for it on fourth-and-goal from the 1. Unitas called a halfback pass by Ameche, who was to toss the ball to Jim Mutscheller.
The pass call was prefaced by a "P" when Unitas called it. Ameche didn't hear that and was buried at the 5 by linebacker Cliff Livingston while Mutscheller stood alone in the end zone.
That awakened the Giants.
Two plays later, Charley Conerly found Kyle Rote behind the Baltimore secondary. He raced to the Colts 25, where Andy Nelson knocked the ball loose. But New York's Alex Webster scooped it up and took it to the 1, setting up Mel Triplett's TD run that made it 14-10.
On New York's next possession, the Giants took a 17-14 lead on a 15-yard Conerly-to-Gifford pass that followed passes of 17 and 46 yards to Bob Schnelker. The stadium rocked.
The score stayed that way deep into the final period.
With 2:40 left, the Giants had a third-and-4 from their 40 and Gifford swept right, diving for the first-down marker. Marchetti pulled him down and 6-foot-6, 285-pound Gene "Big Daddy" Lipscomb, landed on Marchetti's ankle, breaking it. As Marchetti was treated and taken off the field – he lay on a stretcher on the sideline to watch the finish – the ball lay where Gifford had left it. Then referee Ron Gibbs picked it up and spotted it several inches back, just short of a first down.
Gifford still insists he made it.
Asked what might have happened if there had been instant replay, he laughs and replies: "We wouldn't be here." His teammates concur; the Colts don't, and history records him as short.
So New York punted and Unitas and Berry put on a show that made the game into the "Greatest Game."
Starting from his 14, Unitas hit Moore for 11 yards, then Berry for 25, 15, and 22. On came Myhra, who hit from 19 with 7 seconds left as the Colts and their fans held their breath.

Jun 13, 2013It's compelling stuff; we need more musicians who are prepared to go nuts in this delightfully joyous way.
Jun 13, 2013The collective's strength lies in their snakelike energy: all coiled muscle, hypnotic sway and dangerous unpredictability. The flaw is that it can all get a bit lairy.
Jun 13, 2013The result is a pulsating, itchily funky brew, pitched somewhere between Pigbag and Can. [Jul 2013, p.78]
Jun 13, 2013The music Melt Yourself Down make on this eight song, 36-minute debut album is insanely full of energy and ideas, a tumultuous barrage of snaky, infectious hooks and punishingly addictive grooves.
Jun 20, 2013North African rhythms are an inspiration, and vocalist Gaya's bellowings in French, Creole and personal gibberish also give the band much of its helldriving character.
Jun 21, 2013There's enough raucous obnoxiousness, not to mention effortless expert musicianship, in these eight tracks and thirty-five minutes to mark Melt Yourself Down out be the front-runner for not just that token Mercury nod, but the ironic moustache twiddling party album of the year.
Jun 17, 2013This debut feels far too uncoordinated, un-moderated and incoherent to do more than dazzle and confuse in equal proportions before leaving the listener to make sense of what just happened.

Jun 30, 2013From the first listen, I love the boisterous energy and musical influences spanning the globe with latin jazz, punk rock, and African musicFrom the first listen, I love the boisterous energy and musical influences spanning the globe with latin jazz, punk rock, and African music with lyrics whose languages are just as wordly. The vocalist reminds me of Serj Tankian from System of a Down, but I imagine him singing with a brash swagger, ready to party. Some might say that they'd like the album to be longer, but to me, it's swift length brings to mind many punk records and the energy to match. The album is an explosion of a musical performances that will thrill you, just don't forget to put it on repeat.… Collapse
