Browsing ar ound: Potential buyers surveying properties at the Tropicana booth during The Star Property Fair at Setia City Convention Centre, Shah Alam.
SHAH ALAM: The home of your dreams can become a reality with Tropicana Corporation Bhd's new developments.
With a booth bordering the entire back wall of the Star Property Fair 2014, it was a popular spot among visitors yesterday.
"Our brand name attracts people to come over. We offer irresistible packages," said its deputy general manager Andrea Yee.
Accessibility and space were the two core values at Tropicana, said Yee, adding that this had led to a stronger focus on landed property at this time.
"Tropicana Heights and Tropicana Aman are two new developments that embody accessibility and space," she said.
Tropicana Heights, located in Kajang, features a residential and commercial area, 16 acres of parks, recreation hub and a school all over 199 acres.
Tropicana Gardens, another property located in Kota Damansara, is walking distance from the Dataran Sunway MRT station currently under construction and will feature a mall in the apartment.
"Our commitment is to build homes for people, not just a house.
"We provide our residents with lots of lifestyle activities," Yee said.

Gloria La Morte
Gloria La Morte, the co-writer and co-director of the Crystal Heart Award-winning "Entre Nos," talks about making a very personal film with partner Paola Mendoza.
Lindon and Ayverdi give great performances and this is one of the rare films that you consider yourself lucky to have seen. A truly moving piece of cinema.
"Welcome" wins Heartland's top prize
"Welcome" wins $100,000 prize for Best Dramatic Feature; "P-Star Rising" wins $25,000 Best Documentary award; "Bicycle (Jitensha)" wins Best Short Film and $10,000.

Craigmillar hotels
Craigmillar, which means "High Bare Rock" in Gaelic, is a village that is situated about five kilometres from the city centre of Edinburgh, Scotland. Craigmillar is a relatively new settlement in Edinburgh and mostly consists of public housing schemes that were constructed after WWI. However, Craigmillar has an ancient history that is evidenced by the many 14th and 15th century structures that still dapple the landscape, including the local castle that is the main attraction in the area. Craigmillar was also known for its bevy of breweries, many of which operated for more than 100 years.
- Explore the restored ruins of the Craigmillar Castle, and you will see one of the best-preserved medieval fortifications in all of Edinburgh, a stunning work of ancient architecture and engineering.
- Check out the large concrete sculptures done by artist and criminal Jimmy Boyle, who constructed Gulliver, The Gentle Giant, which cares and shares sculpture for the Craigmillar Festival of 1976.
- Catch an exciting shinty match on one of the University of Edinburgh playing fields in Craigmillar, and you can enjoy a unique sport on one of the oldest pitches in Scotland.
Edinburgh has a great system of public transportation that makes it easy for you to get to Craigmillar from just about anywhere in the city. The best way to get there is on a Lothian Bus, as they have several routes originating at various points around Edinburgh that go directly to Craigmillar. The railway line that once serviced Craigmillar is now closed, so bus is the best way to get there. Once there, you can get around Craigmillar easily on bicycle, as there are many dedicated paths that snake through the suburb.

Western Kentucky Coal Mine Discrimination Suit Close to Resolution
A lawsuit against a Union County coal mine accused of discriminating against black job applicants appears to be nearing a settlement. River View Coal is a subsidiary of Tulsa, Oklahoma-based Alliance Resource Partners. The U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission sued the coal mine in 2011.
An attorney for the EEOC, Aime McFerren, said today that a settlement has not yet been reached and attorneys continue to work on a resolution. Court records indicated the parties reached an "amicable resolution" in late May, and it has been removed from the active docket.
The EEOC alleged that beginning in 2008, River View Coal turned away African-American applicants due to their race. The commission said 13 people filed complaints after being rejected for jobs between 2008 and 2010. They were looking for work at an underground mine in Waverly that employs about 430 people.

SPECIAL: Why Communion Could Be Denied to Anti-Life Legislators
Interview With an American Theologian in Rome
ROME, APRIL 27, 2004 (Zenit) - Moves by the Church to deny Holy Communion to staunchly pro-abortion Catholic politicians are growing.
At a Vatican press conference last Friday, Cardinal Francis Arinze said that politicians who unambiguously support abortion must not go to Communion and priests must deny them the sacrament.
Last January, then Bishop Raymond Burke of La Crosse, Wisconsin, issued a decree forbidding Catholic legislators who support abortion or euthanasia from receiving Communion.
To learn more about the canonical and pastoral implications of these declarations, American theologian Father Thomas Williams, dean of the School of Theology of the Regina Apostolorum Pontifical Athenaeum.
Q: Is the Church beginning to adopt a hard-line stance regarding the reception of Holy Communion?
Father Williams: The Church has always taken this issue seriously. In very strong terms St. Paul admonished the Church in Corinth: "Whoever, therefore, eats the bread or drinks the cup of the Lord in an unworthy manner will be guilty of profaning the body and blood of the Lord. Let a man examine himself, and so eat of the bread and drink of the cup." That's in 1 Corinthians 11:27-28.
The 1983 Code of Canon Law, echoing the teaching of the Council of Trent, Canon 11, states that, without a very serious reason, a person who is aware of having committed a mortal sin should voluntarily abstain from Communion. "A person who is conscious of grave sin is not � to receive the Body of the Lord without prior sacramental confession," says Canon 916 of the 1983 code.
Q: But isn't there a big difference between encouraging those in a state of sin to abstain from Communion and forbidding Communion to determined persons?
Father Williams: Yes, of course. Whereas anyone who is aware of having committed a grave sin of any sort, hidden or public, should willingly abstain from Holy Communion, only grave sins committed overtly or publicly provide grounds for non-admittance to Communion on the part of priests and bishops.
The pertinent reference in canon law can be found in Canon 915. In its entirety, this brief canon reads: "Those who are excommunicated or interdicted after the imposition or declaration of the penalty and others who obstinately persist in manifest grave sin are not to be admitted to Holy Communion."
This canon treats two instances where members of the faithful are not to be admitted to Communion. The first deals with excommunication and interdicts -- ecclesiastical censures forbidding participation in the sacraments -- and the second refers to obstinate persistence in manifest grave sin.
Q: So in the case of pro-abortion politicians we would be dealing with a situation of manifestly grave sin? What does this mean?
Father Williams: The technical language of the code which refers to those who "obstinately persist in manifest grave sin" must be carefully parsed.
Four essential elements come into play, all of which are necessary to fulfill the conditions laid out in Canon 915.
The first element is "gravi peccato," or grave sin. This can only be taken to refer to the matter of the action -- or omission -- without necessarily implying a judgment of subjective culpability. "Grave sin" in this case simply means objectively evil conduct of a serious nature.
The second requirement specified by Canon 915 refers to the "manifesto," or overt, character of the sin. This stipulation limits the sanction to sins of a public nature, and reiterates the public and ecclesial dimension of Holy Communion, which signifies moral, spiritual and doctrinal union with Christ and with his Church.
Thirdly, to be refused Communion a person must persist -- "perseverantes" -- in this openly sinful behavior. To say that a person persists in a public sin means that he somehow makes it known that he plans to continue engaging in his sinful behavior.
Finally, the code speaks of obstinate persistence. The Latin adverb "obstinate" here means that the person has been duly informed of the evil of his behavior but deliberately chooses to persist in it anyway.
There is such a thing as inculpable persistence in evildoing, when a person is unaware that a certain habitual activity is sinful. But once the evil of his actions has been brought to his attention, his persistence qualifies as obstinate.
Judging from the foregoing considerations, it seems clear that a politician who votes in a way that fails to defend innocent human life on a consistent basis and gives every indication of his intention to keep doing so despite warnings from ecclesiastical authorities can be said to obstinately persist in objectively evil behavior of a public ...

text: I would definitely stay there again. The hotel is located in lower Manhattan, about 10 min walk to several different subway lines. There's about 5 bars right next to it, couple of grocery stores and restaurants right on Fulton within 10 min walk. The 9/11 memorial is about 15 min walk from there. You can easily walk to the Wall Street, or docks with ferry to the Statue of Liberty. The hotel staff is nice and helpful, rooms size is decent as for New York, continental breakfast is served until 10am. The cab fair from JFK is about $60, if you're feeling adventurous you can actually get to JFK using the blue line subway.

The second phase will take place at the newly planned EPFL Valais Wallis academic cluster in Valais, Switzerland, to be inaugurated in 2015. This health and biotechnology center in Valais will focus on new treatments and rehabilitation for people with physical disabilities.
This research program has the potential to develop effective treatment paradigms for rehabilitating individuals with severe spinal cord injury, for whom current rehabilitative treatments do not restore the ability to stand or walk.

A floating hotel
... consists of 4 yanks - an IT programmer and his wife, and a real life retIred CHiPS officer (Californian Highway Patrol) and tv celebrity and his teacher wife, and 2 Brits - a retired sports teacher and his forceful wife. The ship is huge. It has a theatre, a large, glitzy casino and two small pools and hot tubs on the top deck ! as well as numerous bar areas, where musicians play and people sit and chat or read.

Despite high hope, AAP fails to make impact in Haryana
Chandigarh: Even as it registered a surprising results in Punjab bagging four seats, the Aam Aadmi Party put up a dismal show in neighbouring Haryana, which happens to be the home state of party chief Arvind Kejriwal.
While AAP sprang a surprise in Punjab with its candidates defeating veteran leaders including those from Patiala and Faridkot seats, in Haryana where it was expected to do well in the wake of the party`s performance in the last Delhi Assembly polls, it not only failed to live up to the expectations and but all its candidates also lost their security deposits.
The AAP had fielded candidates, most of them political greenhorns, in all 10 Lok Sabha seats in Haryana, but the party failed to open account and its candidates finished at fourth and fifth positions.
Yogendra Yadav, one of the party`s most prominent faces, contested the polls from Gurgaon constituency. However, he finished a poor fourth bagging a total of 79,452 votes.
Even in Hisar, the home constituency of Kejriwal, bureaucrat-turned-AAP nominee Y S Khyalia garnered just 28,490 votes and finished at number fifth spot.
In Bhiwani-Mahendergarh constituency too, AAP candidate Lalit Aggarwal ended up at fifth spot while in Faridabad, the party candidate Purshottam Dagar finished at fourth spot.
In Rohtak, AAP candidate Naveen Jaihind, who was expected to give good fight to sitting Congress MP Deepinder Singh Hooda, managed just 46,759 votes and ended up at the fourth spot.
Notably, Arvind Kejriwal, who was then a member of the `Team Anna Hazare`, had started his campaign in Haryana during the Hisar Lok Sabha bypolls in 2011. After AAP was formed, he toured the state on few occasions, vigorously raising the issues of corruption and dynastic politics.
While BJP, which won seven of the eight Lok Sabha seats it contested from Haryana and doubled its vote share to 34.7 per cent as compared to 17.21 per cent in 2009 when it failed to win any seat, the AAP managed to get a vote share of 4.2 per cent in the 2014 elections.
Meanwhile, a senior leader of AAP from Haryana said that the party would analyse the reasons why it failed to win any seat from Haryana and rework its strategy as the Assembly polls in the state were due in October.

Drugs, prostitutes and satellite TV - no wonder inmates don't want to escape from Britain's 'cushy' prisons
By MATTHEW HICKLEY
Last updated at 16:52 25 April 2008
Prostitutes and drugs are being smuggled into Britain's 'cushy' jails, a prison officers' leader has claimed.
Inmates have such a good time they even pass up the chances of escape, according to Glyn Travis.
Savaging Labour's prisons policy, he told how inmates benefit from satellite television, free telephone calls, breakfast in bed and officers who treat them with kid gloves for fear of breaching their human rights.
Scroll down for more ...
Overstretched staff are powerless to stem the tide of illegal drugs, he said.
Mr Travis, assistant general secretary of the Prison Officers' Association, warned that every jail in the land was overcrowded and under-resourced, and that the entire system was "snowballing out of control".
"It tells me there's something wrong in society when people are breaking into prisons to bring in drugs and prostitutes but the prisoners are quite happy to stay inside," he added.
The devastating assessment from a senior union leader is a crushing blow for the Government, which is struggling to cope with the chronic overcrowding crisis in prisons.
Mr Travis said: "Drugs are coming into prisons at a rate that's so dramatic that drugs in prisons are actually cheaper than on the outside.
"There's a classic case in Yorkshire where members of the public were climbing over the prison walls to take drugs into the prison.
"They put up ladders to climb over the walls, but prisoners were so comfortable in the environment they were living in that none of them tried to climb up the ladders and escape."
Scroll down for more ...
Mr Travis was referring to Everthorpe Prison in East Yorkshire, where an investigation earlier this year found that a drug dealer was breaking in at night using a ladder, and passing drugs to inmates through their cell windows.
He also sold women's clothing to a transvestite prisoner.
Mr Travis told Talk Sport radio that taxpayers would be "appalled" if they knew of the conditions enjoyed by criminals, including Britain's most notorious rapists, murderers and paedophiles.
"Prisoners receive a wage for being in prison," he said.
"They receive a bed, a TV in all cells, Sky television in most areas for recreational use, free telephones, breakfast in bed on many occasions, cash bonuses for good behaviour, and prison staff are forced to deal with them in such a subservient way it's ridiculous.
"Prison is no longer a deterrent. It is merely an occupational hazard."
Jails are often close to anarchy, and staff morale is at rock-bottom due to under-funding.
"We are trying to manage a system that's just snowballing out of control.
"The drug problem within prisons is massive.
"What prison officers find is only the tip of the iceberg. The quantity of drugs in our prisons today is absolutely vast.
"Prison staff are doing everything they possibly can, despite the shortage of resources, to stem the flow.
"Unfortunately, we have got far more intricate systems now, fewer staff, and basic security measures are not being performed."
Mr Travis accused ministers of trying to tackle the problem by cutting costs, making prisons
"Society is completely out of control," he said.
"We need more prisons. We have more drug abuse and more violence on our streets, sentences are longer, and we need a society that feels safe and secure."
Opposition critics seized on Mr Travis's outburst as evidence of deep-rooted problems in the prison system.
Tory justice spokesman Nick Herbert said: "Prisons should be places of hard work and restoration, preparing offenders to go straight.
"Instead we have over-crowded jails where drugs are rife, prisoners are too often idle and there is little purposeful activity.
"It is time for a fundamental shake-up of our failing prisons system."
The Prison Service confirmed that drugs had been smuggled into Everthorpe Prison by an outside dealer, but said immediate action was taken and prisoners were never in a position to escape.
A spokesman insisted inmates are not given "breakfast in bed", but are handed a "breakfast pack" to eat in their cells, or a hot breakfast to take back to their cells.
Television in cells is an earned privilege which can be removed, she added, and "no public-sector prisons" have Sky TV in cells.
She confirmed that the Incentives and Earned Privileges scheme means well-behaved inmates can earn extra visits, higher rates of pay for work, in-cell television and access to private cash.
She said the IEP scheme was designed "to ensure good order and control in prisons" and to encourage prisoners to take part in rehabilitation work.

So you buy less shares.
There is no monetary gain by splitting, only ads cost to the equity involved.

The pipeline underwent a "major internal inspection" in 2012 and again "a few weeks ago," though the latest results are not available, Plains said Wednesday. No problems were reported.
This morning news stated that the pipeline was inspected last year and was OK.
Goldman Sachs had a lot to say about all corners of the energy sector today in addition to the cut in its long-term oil price forecast, its Sell recommendations for oil majors BP, Statoil (NYSE:STO) and Chevron (NYSE:CVX), and its gloomy outlook for offshore drillers Transocean (NYSE:RIG), Diamond Offshore (NYSE:DO) and Atwood Oceanics (NYSE:ATW).
Goldman awards a Buy rating for Exxon Mobil (NYSE:XOM), "the only U.S. or European major that can generate sufficient free cash flow to cover its dividend near $60/bbl in 2016-17"; while the firm says other oil majors will be struggling to keep the dividend flat, XOM will be in a position to increase the dividend for the next several years.

Rules to owning MLPs:
1) Never sell a portion of your position. Sell it all or sell none of it. This is critical to 'release' your suspended passive losses (treated as ordinary not capital losses) that you want to offset your ordinary gain recapture (due to accelerated depreciation) and likely capital gains (due to your reduced basis created by prior losses (practically guaranteed) and distributions).
Your accountant is going to love you.

Happy Sysadmin Day, now put Win10 on my work lappy immediately
Subject: General Tech | July 30, 2015 - 12:34 PM | Jeremy Hellstrom
Tagged: windows 10
You are nowhere near as fed up with Win10 stories as you will be in a week or so sit down and get reading. So far the biggest new issue has been those who have over 512 apps in their Start menu, not inconceivable but certainly not common. Over at The Register a story has been put up covering Win10 by a person who admits to having 4,000 open browser tabs and sending the machine into hibernation in that state. Their experiences show that Win10 doesn't care and even likes this sort of abuse as long as it is on an SSD. That is not to say all is good, for there is still the technicolour yawn which is the new Start menu and the disturbing tendency for the OS to call on mom more often than Norman Bates. Read the full article to see the good, bad and bothersome.
"It's Windows 10 day. That means it's time for a completely biased and in-no-way-even-remotely-objective assessment of Windows 10."

A few years ago, we took our first look at the inexpensive 27" 1440p monitors which were starting to flood the market via eBay sellers located in Korea. These monitors proved to be immensely popular and largely credited for moving a large number of gamers past 1080p.
However, in the past few months we have seen a new trend from some of these same Korean monitor manufacturers. Just like the Seiki Pro SM40UNP 40" 4K display that we took a look at a few weeks ago, the new trend is large 4K monitors.
Built around a 42-in LG AH-IPS panel, the Wasabi Mango UHD420 is an impressive display. Inclusion of HDMI 2.0 and DisplayPort 1.2 allow you to achieve 4K at a full 60Hz and 4:4:4 color gamut. At a cost of just under $800 on Amazon, this is an incredibly appealing value.
Whether or not the UHD420 is a TV or a monitor is actually quite the tossup. The lack of a tuner
might initially lead you to believe it's not a TV. Inclusion of a DisplayPort connector, and USB 3.0 hub might make you believe it's a monitor, but it's bundled with a remote control (entirely in Korean). In reality, this display could really be used for either use case (unless you use OTA tuning), and really starts to blur the lines between a "dumb" TV and a monitor. You'll also find VESA 400x400mm mounting holes on this display for easy wall mounting.

BattleTech is coming back baby! Harebrained Schemes who have successfully rebooted the Shadowrun RPG system on PC and who are in the final steps of releasing the third game in that world have just announced plans to start a new Kickstarter campaign. This time it will be a trip to the world of Battletech, the details are slim but we can expect to see both the larger view of the Battletech galaxy and the Houses that populate it as well as mech management and combat. From what Rock, Paper, SHOTGUN were told this will be turn-based, not the FPS style of the Mechwarrior series of old. No matter, this news is still exciting so keep your eyes peeled for more information.
"Harebrained Schemes is pleased to announce their return to Kickstarter this Fall to partner with backers in co-funding the creation of BATTLETECH. Jordan Weisman, the creator of BattleTech and MechWarrior, is back with the first turn-based BattleTech game for PC in over two decades."

The Stagefright media player vulnerability on Android powered Nexus devices which allowed the possibility of running remotely execute code via an MMS containing a specially crafted media file. It made headlines everywhere even though it is incredibly unlikely the bug was ever used in an attack. Regardless, you no longer need to worry as Google has crafted a patch and has released it to the carriers. You should keep an eye out this week and next for the update and if you do not see it apply you should reach out to your carrier. More at The Inquirer.

Killing those end of summer blues
As we approach the end of summer and the beginning of the life of Windows 10, PC Perspective and Gigabyte (along with Thermaltake and Kingston) have teamed up to bring our readers a system build guide and giveaway that is sure to get your gears turning. If you think that an X99-based system with an 8-core Intel Extreme processor, SLI graphics, 480GB SSD and 32GB of memory sounds up your alley...pay attention.
Deep in thought...
Even with the dawn of Skylake nearly upon us, there is no debate that the Haswell-E platform will continue to be the basis of the enthusiasts dream system for a long time. Lower power consumption is great, but nothing is going to top 8-cores, 16-threads and all the PCI Express lanes you could need for expansion to faster storage and accessories. With that in mind Gigabyte has partnered with PC Perspective to showcase the power of X99 and what a builder today can expect when putting together a system with a fairly high budget, but with lofty goals in mind as well.
Let's take a look at the components we are using today.
|Gigabyte X99 System Build
|Intel Core i7-5960X - $1048
|Gigabyte X99 Gaming 5P - $309
|Kingston HyperX Fury DDR4-2666 32GB - $325
|Graphics Card
|2 x Gigabyte G1 Gaming GTX 960 2GB - $199
|Kingston HyperX Savage 480GB SSD - $194
|Thermaltake Core V51 - $82
|Power Supply
|Thermaltake Toughpower Grand 850 watt - $189
|CPU Cooler
|Thermaltake Water 3.0 Extreme S - $94
|Total Price

With not many hours left until launch, Windows 10 is still very obviously a service that is sill being serviced and the pressure is on at Microsoft. NVIDIA users have discovered that having a clearly drawn display is not something they are likely to have by launch day, much to the amusement of us AMD users. Until this week those used to uninstalling programs with the Control Panel as opposed to the new procedure of heading to Settings -> System -> Apps & features will find they are punished for their temerity with a Windows Explorer crash, certainly an interesting choice to reinforce the new behaviour. Less common, though still frequent enough for The Register to make note of and for a patch to be released yesterday is a similar crash if you were to disable an active network connection manually.
Surface users may have noticed new firmware arriving to mitigate some of the compatibility issues Windows 10 testers have used, though there is not that much time left to test them en masse, the fact that the tablets were built by Microsoft should help ensure the updates are stable and useful. Not so much for other tablets as The Register shows in this story.
Creating a new version of an OS is a non-trivial task and for the most part Windows 10 should be ready for a consumer release this week. Microsoft have changed a lot about the look and function of Windows and made even more changes to their business model and licensing. The real hurdle is Enterprise, the huge customer base that ignored Windows 8(.x) and to a lesser extent Windows 7. With the stability and functionality of the OS already in question, will the poorly communicated changes to the licensing models of Windows 10 mean that we will once again see extremely slow or non-existent adoption in Enterprise and even SMB for that matter?
"Build 10240, which was released to the Windows Insider program two weeks ago, is widely considered to be the "release to manufacturing" (RTM) build, even though Redmond itself says the RTM concept doesn't apply in its brave new world of Windows as a Service."

Tagged: microsoft, windows 10
Microsoft's decision to push out updates to non-enterprise Windows 10 without user intervention or even notification has been a bit of a hot topic recently. While those of us who have been supporting machines for a while have all seen a bad Windows update or 10 which render machines unusable, however we have also seen machines over 100 updates behind that are completely riddled with malware, trojans and other nasties which would have been blocked if those updates had been applied.
Whichever side of that debate you fall on, thanks to the nosy reporters at The Register you now can have a choice. They've posted a link to the "Show or hide updates" troubleshooter package in this recent article, a tool from Microsoft which would allow you to hide certain updates before they were installed and ensure that they are not installed in the future. Patch Tuesday is gone but there will still be people keeping track of which updates are released so that if you encounter an issue you can roll back and hide that update. Of course, that assumes you enabled System Restore, which is has been disabled by default in Windows 10.

30 years ago Andy Warhol and Debbie Harry's voice introduced a computer which had people dropping their ZX Spectrums and Commie64's in awe, the original Commodore Amiga. It had such incredible specifications, 256KB of RAM which was upgradable to 512KB, a Motorola 68000 CPU that could handle both 16 and 32 bit addressing and OCS graphics which could manage an unheard of 640×400 resolution with 12 onscreen colour or 4096 at 320x400. There was one problem though, they were rarer than hen's teeth as Commodore vastly underestimated demand and overestimated their production capability. If you happen to be in California then check out the link at The Inquirer for there is a celebration this weekend and you might still be able to score tickets.

As always you should take these leaks with a bit of salt but if they are accurate Skylake may well offer enough enhancements to make a convincing argument for buying a new machine. The GPU portion of the high end mobile processors will be 34-41% faster than the models available now, with the desktop seeing a moderate 28% jump for those who do not have an add-in card. The low powered mobile model's performance is not much improved over the previous generation but the claimed 80% reduction in power usage is more than enough to make up for that.
SPECint benchmarks show that Skylak will offer a performance boost a bit over 10% but the added 1.4 hours of battery life is rather impressive, even the desktop part is more efficient with a 65W TDP. As for accessories, Skylake will support 4k cameras and new and improved RealSense 3D cameras, Wake on Voice support and improved touch sensors. You can see the other two leaked slides at FanlessTech.

In pictures: The search for the missing trio in Cleveland, Ohio
John Hall
John Hall is Senior Online Reporter at The Independent. He also writes a column on new music for the newspaper.
Wednesday 08 May 2013
Three women presumed dead after being abducted separately 10 years ago have been found in a house close to where they were last seen.
Police in the city of Cleveland, Ohio said they had arrested three brothers as suspects in the triple disappearance, after a neighbour heard a woman screaming inside the house and came to her rescue.
Once the woman had been let out the house, she made a frantic phone call to police, identifying herself as Amanda Berry – the victim of a high-profile suspected abduction a decade ago
In a recording of the emergency call, which has since been released by police, the 26-year-old can be heard screaming: "Help me! I'm Amanda Berry... I've been kidnapped and I've been missing for 10 years and I'm here. I'm free now".
The two women found with Berry were identified by authorities as Gina DeJesus, 23, who vanished in 2004 at age 14, and Michelle Knight, who was reported to have been 20 when she disappeared more than a decade ago.

Historical Traveler Reviews Grace Manor Inn Richmond
Our #1 Choice for B&B
Of the many b&b's we've stayed at, the Grace Manor Inn is by far the most opulent and beautiful. At the same time, it's also very cozy and friendly. The inn features several large, luxurious sitting rooms, each decorated in its own unique style. Dawn and Albert Schick are a younger couple with fantastic taste - they've managed to find some amazing pieces that fit perfectly into this historic city mansion. We enjoyed a two-room suite (the "red" room), with complimentary wine and cheese upon arrival. Within 10 minutes of unloading our bags, we were sitting on a 2nd-story back porch, sipping wine and kicking back. After a restful sleep in a very comfortable bed, we enjoyed a delicious breakfast in the dining room (they don't miss a thing, even in food presentation), under a gorgeous chandelier, and unfortunately had to hit the road early. We would have spent another week there had we not been in the middle of a long road trip! It may sound like I'm gushing over this place, but there simply aren't enough great adjectives to describe the experience. Thanks guys, we'll be back!
Bret & Lesley
You won't want to go home
Our stay at the Grace Manor Inn was an indulgent pleasure. We intended to just spend 1 night mid-week, but 1 night wasn't enough. Luckily for us, a different suite was available so we could extend our stay. The inn, just steps away from Monument Avenue, inspires one to stick around and take advantage of the lovely rooms -- and save the sightseeing for another day. The Inn is sumptuous, from the detailed restoration, furnishings, linens on the bed, magnificant suites, to the cheese sampler in the mini-fridge, wine, and the decadent 4-course breakfast. The hosts were perfectly gracious and accommodating. The garden is a inviting spot to read and lounge, rivaled only by the 2nd floor balcony. I will go back. I highly recommend this Inn to everyone who travels to Richmond.
Comfortable, unique, fantastic amenities, great hosts!
Making online reservations was easy. Dawn and Albert sent directions and asked if there was anything special I'd like to do. Albert bought a special bottle of my favorite wine, and Dawn scheduled me for a facial, massage, and the best eyebrow waxing/shaping I've ever had. The B&B is gorgeous and extremely comfortable. In addition, Dawn prepared a snack for me each day. I also had a little fridge in my room stocked with water and cheese and fruit.
I was also impressed that Dawn and Albert provide a computer for the guests' use, free of charge. The breakfasts were excellent, and I was able to invite my son and his friend for breakfast before I left.
I frequently travel and love to stay in B&Bs. Dawn and Albert have a beautiful, comfortable home, far above average in comfort and amenities. They are wonderful hosts, too!
Elegance, Warmth, & Hospitality Beyond Your Dreams!
Grace Manor is the consummate B & B, Dawn the consummate hostess and Albert the consummate host! I adore staying in B & B's and have experienced a great many lovely ones all around the world but nowhere have I found more attention to detail and more willingness by the hosts to meet every foreseen and unforeseen need and want. Dawn's breakfast was a masterpiece and Albert's charm and skills in serving it a delight. The location in the Fan District is fabulous - I was almost convinced on my early morning walk that I had been transported back a century or two to a truly charming era. The Manor itself is marvellous to experience and Dawn and Albert have achieved the miraculous in so quickly bringing it presently to its past glory - and doing so in record time. However, the alacrity with which they have furnished the Inn has in no way sacrificed good taste and pleasing reults. Each room is more breathtaking than the one before. Staying at Grace Manor is a wonderful way to simultaneously experience the graciousness of the old South with the friendliness of the new South. I wholeheartedly and without reservation recommend the Grace Manor Inn.
Definitely one of the best!
I stayed at the Grace Manor Inn for two nights while I toured Richmond. The Fan area is lovely, and the Inn is right in the middle, within walking distance of the VMFA. The hosts were friendly and unobtrusive, making terrific breakfasts, inquiring if there was anything I needed, giving me computer directions to the restaurants they recommended, all excellent. The Inn itself is lovely, with spacious public areas and very friendly atmosphere. The suite where I stayed had a lovely clawfooted bathtub, Tom's toothpaste, and a suite of sitting and bedroom. The furniture was lovely, and the room temperature was just perfect. I had a very friendly breakfast both days with interesting people. I would come back anytime.
Wonderful Experience!
The things we liked best about the Grace Manor Inn were the gourmet breakfasts, the separate sitting and bedrooms, and website with online availability and reservation service. The location is right in the heart of the fan district, close to museums and gorgeous Monument Ave homes. Our hosts were very attentive, hospitable, and knowledgable. They recommended an excellent restaurant, made dinner reservations for us, and gave us detailed directions. We highly recommend this Bed and Breakfast!
Home away from home
We have returned for a second visit to The Grace Manor Inn. We were here the same weekend last year. Dawn and Albert are exceptional hosts! They make you feel as if you were one of the family. The house is beautiful and the food is excellant. We would recommend this to anyone who will be away from home but would like to feel "AT" home.
Exquisite Presentation and Taste
We stayed for two lovely nights in the Shortt suite, going to bed after a glass of wine provided in the room by our hosts, and sinking into a large comfortable bed. We awoke with sunlight streaming into our beautiful Victorian room and the smells of chorizo sausage wafting up the three flights of stairs. The breakfasts were wonderful: the presentation elegant, the tastes finally mingled and the service impeccable. The hosts have good memories, noting preferences for tea with honey, or decaf coffee at breakfast, and they are graciously accomodating. The house is on a tree-lined street one block over from the Monument Street and we ventured out on two morning walks to explore the neighborhood. All in all, a fantastic place. Highly recommended.
Do not stay here!
My husband and I also stayed here expecting a relaxing experience. Our stay was anything but relaxing. Although the rooms were very nice, (we stayed on the second floor) the two Yorkies that live there kept barking and woke us up at 5 a.m.! The amount we paid to stay at this establishment could have been better spent at the Jefferson. I won't be returning again.
You Must Stay Here!
My husband and I stayed at the Grace Manor Inn in the Fan District in Richmond, VA in October. We we absolutely pleased with our experience. The Manor is a three-storied Victorian home that while revovated with modern conveniences, maintains its integrity as a historical home. Hosts Albert and Dawn (and doggies Coco and Bear) are naturals and will surely pamper you as guests. Dawn is a gourmet cook and Albert serves the breakfast.

The Union once again prevailed and within three weeks, on April 9, 1865, Robert E Lee would surrender the Army of Virginia ending the Civil War.
