Obama to Reverse Afghan Troop Surge
President Obama has announced a plan to withdraw as many as 10,000 troops from Afghanistan this year, reversing his controversial troop surge. In a televised address, Obama said he will also bring home another 23,000 troops by the end of summer in 2012 — just as his re-election campaign will be in full swing.
President Obama: "Starting next month, we will be able to remove 10,000 of our troops from Afghanistan by the end of this year, and we will bring home a total of 33,000 troops by next summer, fully recovering the surge I announced at West Point. After this initial reduction, our troops will continue coming home at a steady pace as Afghan security forces move into the lead. Our mission will change from combat to support. By 2014, this process of transition will be complete, and the Afghan people will be responsible for their own security."
President Obama's plan would leave around 70,000 military forces, plus thousands of contractors in Afghanistan — the same size as before the troop surge last year.
NATO Sees Rift over Libya Bombing
A split has emerged within NATO over the bombing of Libya. Italy is calling on other member states to halt the international assault and allow for the delivery of humanitarian aid. But the NATO leadership is vowing to continue launching air strikes, saying any pause would increase civilian casualties and strengthen the forces behind Libyan leader Col. Muammar Gaddafi. A NATO air strike this week reportedly killed a number of civilians — including two children — in the capital city of Tripoli. Thousands of people gathered on Wednesday to bury the dead. Libyan government spokesperson Moussa Ibrahim condemned the NATO bombings.
Moussa Ibrahim: "We have been calling for peace and negotiation for months, and no one wants to listen to us. Now we have to pay a very heavy price of casualties, civilian casualties and also military casualties. I think the time has come for the world to understand that this conflict has to come to an end immediately."
Gaddafi Forces Strike Misurata, Killing 4
Forces loyal to Libyan leader Col. Muammar Gaddafi continue to launch strikes at rebel strongholds. A field hospital in the rebel-held city of Misurata said it had received at least four dead victims.
Doctor: "Today it's quiet at the moment, but in afternoon they start bombing by mortars on the west gate of Misurata, I mean Dafniyah. We received today 23 civilian; four of them, they are dead on arrival."
U.S. Voices "Concern" over Bahrain Trials
Bahraini opposition members are warning of a worsening political crisis following the sentencing of eight leading activists to life in prison. On Wednesday, a Bahraini court ruled Shiite political leader Hassan Mushaima and seven others were guilty of plotting a coup in the protests that erupted earlier this year. Thirteen other activists were given sentences of between two to five years. Bahrain is a key U.S. government ally in the Middle East, hosting the Navy's Fifth Fleet. In Washington, U.S. Department of State spokesperson Mark Toner expressed "concern" over the sentences.
Mark Toner: "We are concerned about the severity of the sentences handed down yesterday in Bahrain. We're also concerned about the use of military courts to try these civilians. As President Obama said in his May 29—or May 19th speech, 'such steps are at odds with the universal rights of Bahrain's citizens.' We understand that these cases will now go through an appeals process. We continue to urge the Bahraini government to abide by its commitment to transparent judicial proceedings."
A number of other Bahraini protesters stand to face trial. A military trial is ongoing for a group of doctors and medical workers who treated wounded activists. This week, the wife of one of the doctors says her husband was tortured into confessing, after being forced to stand for three weeks, handcuffed, and deprived of sleep.
Syrians Flee into Turkey Following New Raid in Dissent Crackdown
Syrian forces have entered a village near the Turkish border, forcing hundreds of people living in makeshift camps to flee into Turkey. Tanks, armored vehicles and buses carrying troops moved into the town of Khirbet el-Jouz early Thursday morning. The camps had provided a temporary home for thousands of Syrian families fleeing President Bashar al-Assad's ongoing crackdown on opposition supporters. Syrian human rights groups estimate about 1,400 people have been killed and 10,000 detained in the last three months.
Chinese Artist Ai Weiwei Freed From Prison
China's best-known artist, Ai Weiwei, has been released from prison after more than two months behind bars. Chinese authorities had detained Weiwei and seized more than 30 computers from his studio just days after he accused the Chinese government of trying to silence dissident voices. Outside of his studio, Weiwei refused to answer questions, saying it would violate his bail conditions.
Ai Weiwei: "Sorry, I can't."
Reporter: "You can't talk? You're not allowed to talk?"
Ai Weiwei: "I'm on probation, so..."
Reporter: "And what about the police saying that you admitted"—
Ai Weiwei: "I cannot talk. I'm so sorry."
Reporter: "OK."
Ai Weiwei: "Please understand. Thank you so much."
As an artist, Weiwei is best known for designing the Bird's Nest stadium for the 2008 Olympic Games in Beijing. His arrest had sparked an international outcry.
U.S. Pledges $40 Million for Central American Drug War
U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton is in Guatemala for a gathering on efforts to combat rampant drug trafficking in Central America. The conference includes all seven of Central America's presidents, as well as the presidents of Mexico and Colombia, leaders from Canada and Europe, and representatives from a number of global financial institutions. On Wednesday, Clinton said the United States will increase funding for regional drug war efforts by $40 million. Clinton also called on Central American countries to ensure wealthy citizens are paying their share of taxes.
Secretary of State Hillary Clinton: "The countries represented around here and the extraordinary leaders who are here on behalf of their countries must have the resources they require. Businesses and the rich in every country must pay their fair share of taxes and become full partners in a whole of society effort. True security cannot be funded on the backs of the poor."
The militarized drug war in Mexico has pushed violent drug trafficking organizations into impoverished areas, particularly in the nations of Honduras, El Salvador and Guatemala. Central America is now considered the most dangerous area in the world outside of an active war zone.
Bernanke Acknowledges Slow Economic Recovery
Federal Reserve Chair Ben Bernanke has raised the possibility of new government stimulus measures should the U.S. economy continue to show a slow recovery. On Wednesday, Bernanke said he would consider cutting interest rates and purchasing U.S. Treasury securities. The official unemployment rate hit 9.1 percent last month, the second consecutive increase.
Federal Reserve Chair Ben Bernanke: "As indicated in today's policy statement, the economic recovery appears to be proceeding at a moderate pace, though somewhat more slowly than the committee had expected, and some recent labor market indicators have also been weaker than expected. For example, the unemployment rate has risen by 0.3 percentage points since March, and new claims for unemployment insurance have moved somewhat higher."
New York Times Reporter Alleges Obama Government Harassment, Surveillance
A New York Times reporter who helped uncover the Bush administration's secret domestic spying program says he continues to face government surveillance and harassment under President Obama. In a new affidavit, James Risen says government monitoring of his incoming and outgoing phone calls has carried over from the Bush years. Risen has been subpoenaed twice to reveal his sources for a 2006 book on the CIA, in which he detailed the CIA's role in disrupting Iran's nuclear program. Risen writes: "I believe that the efforts to target me have continued under the Obama administration, which has been aggressively investigating whistleblowers and reporters in a way that will have a chilling effect on freedom of the press in the United States."
Michelle Obama Visits South Africa
First Lady Michelle Obama is in South Africa for a week-long visit. Traveling with her two daughters and her mother, Obama's itinerary has included a nationally televised address, meetings with youth leaders, a visit to South Africa's apartheid museum, and a meeting with former South African President Nelson Mandela at his home. At a public event, Mandela's wife, Graça Machel, welcomed the Obama family to South Africa.
Graça Machel: "Regina Mundi's name in Latin means 'Queen of the World.' And we are welcoming you as a daughter of African heritage, and we can call you 'the Queen of our World.'"
Michelle Obama's visit is being described by some as a turning point in how many South Africans perceive the United States, which supported the apartheid government under the Ronald Reagan administration.
Salvadoran Activist Killed After Protesting Mining Project
In El Salvador, an environmental activist has been killed after speaking out against a mining project in a northern region. Juan Francisco Duran Ayala is the latest in a string of activists to be killed after denouncing the Canadian gold mining company, Pacific Rim, in its efforts to mine the area of Cabañas. A community youth radio station, Radio Victoria, has also received repeated death threats for covering the story. Lisa Fuller represents the Committee in Solidarity with the People of El Salvador.
Lisa Fuller: "Obviously, Pacific Rim, the gold mining company, has a stake in the matter, but also this area is controlled by the right wing, and the local mayors have been promoting the mining project, as well. And community members say that the local mayors have ties to organized crime and that they, in fact, are part of this campaign of violent attacks to destroy the opposition. Furthermore, the attorney general is contributing to this wave of violence by refusing to investigate who is behind these attacks against the social movement in Cabañas."
Residents fear cyanide used to extract gold in the area could contaminate the local water supply and farmland.
Uninsured Man Explains Deliberate Jailing to Obtain Healthcare
A North Carolina man who deliberately got himself arrested to obtain free medical care in jail has spoken out from behind bars. James Verone, a laid-off employee of Coca Cola, recently noticed a protrusion in his chest and had developed arthritis and carpal tunnel syndrome. Without health insurance or money for private care, Verone concluded his best option would be to go to prison. He then walked into a local bank and handed a teller a note reading: "This is a bank robbery. Please give me one dollar."
James Verone: "First time I've ever been in trouble with the law, so it's not—you know, I'm sort of a logical person, and that was my logic. That's what I came up with. If it's called manipulation, then out of necessity, because I need medical care, then I guess I am manipulating the courts to get medical care."
After Verone demanded the dollar, he told the bank teller he would be seated, waiting for the police to arrest him. Verone has been charged with larceny. He says he hopes to remain jailed for three years to continue receiving medical treatment.

On the night of Oct. 20, 2014, Laquan McDonald, a 17-year-old African-American teenager in Chicago, was walking down the street when two police cruisers sped up to him. Officers jumped out, and at least one of them, Jason Van Dyke, began firing. Laquan fell to the ground, his final, painful moments caught on the dashboard video camera of a third police vehicle that had arrived just seconds before. Laquan spun as he was shot. Two bullets hit him in the back. As the video clearly shows, the bullets were pumped into him, evidenced by clouds of dust exploding off the pavement. This week, on the day the video was released to the public by court order, Officer Van Dyke was charged with first-degree murder — 400 days after he killed Laquan McDonald.

"Absolutely love how the cards turned out! We received so many complements from our family and friends. I used one of our engagement shots and added the ceremony details to personalize. The process was simple and shipping was fast. Customer service was excellent too."
"We are so happy with how our wedding invitations turned out! I can't believe how much we love them. The colors are vibrant and elegant and are perfect for our Dallas rooftop wedding. I give this product 5 stars for sure and nothing less."
"It was very easy to design and my proof came quickly to my email for me to confirm. However I was shorted about 3 cards per item i ordered. When i spoke to the customer service via online chat they assured me they would resend me ANOTHER BOX of the invitations i ordered. Needless to say it was an amazing experience and I didn't have to freak out about my shorted cards because i would soon have more than enough to send out. The new box arrived on the date the lady told me they would and they're exactly the same and i was able to complete the amount i needed. THANK YOU WEDDING PAPER DIVAS!"

Far more than the Beltway Right, the Tea Party is in tune with the heart of America -- not only on taxes, spending and Obamacare, but on social, cultural and moral issues. National Republicans may stay out of these bloody battles, but they hold great potential for bringing out voters and driving wedges through Obama's national base.
Consider. Establishment Republicans recoil from the issue of gay marriage. But, in 2008, while McCain was winning 5 percent of the African-American vote in California, blacks in California, urged on by pastors and preachers, voted 70 percent to outlaw same-sex marriage.
The pro-life position is also a far more popular cause among black and Hispanic Americans than is the Republican Party.
Oklahoma's prohibition against any use of Shariah law should be seen as a cry from the heart of America that we are and wish to remain a Western nation, a predominantly Christian country, and we wish to be ruled by our Constitution and laws enacted pursuant to it.
The national outpouring of support for Arizona after that state came under attack for its law requiring suspected illegal aliens to show ID demonstrates how explosive the immigration-amnesty issue is. Republicans should not run away from it, for our elites are further out of touch with the people on this issue than any other.
As for the Connerly amendment abolishing affirmative action, if the GOP wishes to win in 2012, the party will put this measure on every possible state ballot, especially crucial states like Pennsylvania and Ohio.
What this panoply of issues testifies to is the true identity of the Tea Party. These folks are not single-issue voters, and they are not motivated by pocketbook issues alone.
They have seen the America they grew up in virtually vanish.
Look at how far we have traveled.
We seem no longer able to balance our budgets, win our wars or secure our borders. Compared to what our culture was, it is a running sewer today. Working-class wages and middle-class incomes seem to have been stagnant for decades. Factories and jobs continue to hemorrhage to Asia. Company towns become ghost towns. Made in China has replaced Made in America. And as one drives through cities and suburbs, one encounters vast concentrations of people who speak some language other than our own.
The Tea Party people are rising up to take their country back, and that's why they're not going away.

An effort by Democratic Sen. Ron Wyden of Oregon and Republican Sen. John Thune of South Dakota to add $15.6 billion worth of pork barrel spending to the bipartisan economic stimulus package failed in the Senate Finance Committee Wednesday, when Chairman Max Baucus rejected it.
On Monday, aides for all senators received an e-mail listing the amount of money for building infrastructure that each state would receive under the Wyden-Thune proposal. Pennsylvania with $1.3 billion and West Virginia with $1.2 billion led the list. The states of the proposal's co-sponsors would benefit by $251.2 million for Oregon and $181 million for South Dakota. The two most populous states, California and Texas, would receive nothing.
Baucus indicated his interest in infrastructure spending but also turned down a plea to commit himself to considering the proposals two months from now.
Florida Surprise
Florida Gov. Charlie Crist's unexpected late endorsement, which helped propel Sen. John McCain to a momentous victory in the Florida primary, came as an unpleasant surprise to Republican leaders around the state.
Crist had passed the word to GOP regulars that he was not making an endorsement after he shunned former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani's courtship and suggested that they also stay neutral. His support for McCain irked Republican activists who generally would have preferred former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney.
A footnote: While losing the state, Romney carried heavily Republican Collier and Lee counties in southwest Florida by substantial margins. That represents Republican voters whom McCain will have to win over if nominated.

Breaking down Mark Cuban's draft-day trade history with the Mavericks
Photo: GREG WAHL-STEPHENS/AP
2004: After the Wizards selected Devin Harris No. 5 overall, the Mavericks sent Antawn Jamison to Washington in exchange for his rights, as well as Jerry Stackhouse, Christian Laettner.
Harris averaged 24.6 minutes, 10.5 points and 3.2 assists in three and a half years. He was traded in 2008 in the deal that brought Jason Kidd back to Dallas.
Jamison became a productive starter for the Wizards, averaging 20.8 points and 8.9 rebounds in five and a half years with the team.

I went to World of Fun in KC-MO last week with a few friends and had a pretty good time, BUT, I did have one complaint. We went on a Wednesday, hoping to avoid the long lines that come from the weekends. We did a good job of that, the lines were short, but they took forever! Come to find out, all of the coasters were only running one train. They have the capacity to run 3 on some of the coasters, and in my previous experience have run at least two. I don't get it. I'm sure it's something about not wanting to bring in extra help to run the extra train, but man... those lines took forever! That being said, I still had a blast riding the rides, and losing money at the games, specifically the basketball game I futily attempted to win a prize. Feel free to chime in.

Angelina Jolie was an absolute vision at the Oscars red carpet Sunday night (clearly she made our best dressed list for her Elie Saab number), but all the credit for Angelina's flawless hair should go to her hairstylist Adam Campbell.
We caught up with Adam, who dished on his inspiration for Angie's hairstyle and what it's been like working with the star for seven years.
"It's exciting to work with Angie, because she always has a vision of how she wants her hair to look," says Adam. "I am often am inspired by hairstyles that are happening on the runways. Touchable, soft and sexy are some of my favorite elements to implement into her hairstyles," he explains.
As for how he created her look Sunday night, Adam broke it down for us in a clear and step-by-step process. So clear, in fact, that you can recreate this voluminous look at home!
"We went for a sleek and sensuous look," says Adam. "I started by spraying volumizer at the roots and blow drying with a large round brush to create as much lift as possible."
The next step? "Then I focused on the bottom one-two inches of hair. While spinning the round brush under each section, I held the blow dryer on it for 10 seconds to really smooth the ends," he says.
And lastly, Adam completes the look with a final spritz. "I finished with a little shine spray to give the hair a glossy shine and seal out the elements." So, voilà! There you have it.
And not surprisingly, Adam had nothing but the highest praise for his superstar client. "It is such a privilege for almost seven years to collaborate with Angelina to create her hairstyles for the red carpet, magazines and everyday life," he gushes.

Pictures from Ancient China: Interpreting a Painted Universe
Ellis, Glen, ROM Magazine
The ROM's curatorial ranks were enhanced this autumn with the appointment of Wen-chien Cheng as the new Curator, Louise Hawley Stone Chair of East Asian Art. She succeeds Klaas Ruitenbeek, now director of the Museum of Asian Art at the National Museums in Berlin, Germany. In welcoming Dr. Cheng, the Museum expresses its ongoing gratitude to Louise Hawley Stone (1904-1997), the donor, patron, and friend behind the endowment.
Cheng brings both a literary and an art-history perspective to her research of East Asian paintings. As a student of classical Chinese literature in Taiwan, she found herself drawn as well to Chinese art. "When I was in a certain mood," she recalls, "I would go to the library and look at Chinese paintings in catalogues. Afterwards, I would look at the world through the lens of the Chinese masterpieces."
After graduating, she left for France to study French and art. She began to observe the essential differences between the Eastern and Western traditions, not only the obvious differences in the approach to colour and perspective but also the essential difference in the approach to brushwork. Eventually, she returned to Taiwan to study Chinese painting and brushwork, which she calls her "true love."
She describes Chinese art as being about calligraphy and lines. "You can stop the brush, and turn it, and twist it," she remarks, "to create a subtlety of brushstrokes and tonality. Colour may be less than prominent; sometimes black ink will suffice." She also notes that in the Chinese tradition the artist may write on the painting or attach a scroll to the work as commentary. Sometimes the painting itself may be lost but the perceptions of it may persist in inscriptions and colophons that can still be found in the form of printed books.
She especially admires the order of the Song dynasty universe, its balance of the human world and nature. She is also attracted by the literati tradition, whose artists expressed both their erudition, literary and otherwise, and their feelings. …

Get an alert when new Bahamas dates are announced
Bahamas is the solo project of Toronto-based guitarist and musical gun-for-hire Afie Jurvanen. With a carefully trained ear for melody that he's honed during his time playing with the likes of Feist and Howie Beck, Jurvanen's solo project has a stripped-down and contemplative sound that focuses on doing more with less, allowing his voice and guitar to do most of the heavy lifting on his quiet, indie folk meditations.
Bahamas made its album debut in 2009 with Pink Strat, which was nominated for a Juno Award the following year.

Walk will benefit research for rare disease affecting 3 Bakersfield families
Carter's Walk 4 Cured starts at 8:30 a.m.
BAKERSFIELD - One mom's fight to raise awareness has turned into a pledge of community support.
Five year-old Carter Stiles was diagnosed with Eosinophilic Esophagitis in January 2011.
EoE is a white blood cell disorder. The rare auto immune disease causes inflammation of the esophagus, leading to severe dietary complications and restrictions.
After Carter's diagnosis over 3 years ago, he has had 14 endoscopes with biopsies and 2 bronchoscopes. He has been admitted to the hospital 7 times, had numerous blood draws, skin prick testing, allergy patch testing, x-rays, CT scans, ultrasounds, MRI, gastric emptying study, genetic testing and is on numerous prescriptions.
Carter is a normal, active 5-year-old little boy.
The family started the walk locally to raise awareness and funding for the disease.
"There is no government funding, because the disease is so rare," said Brandy Stiles.
Saturday is the fourth annual Carter's Walk 4 Cured at Yokuts Park.
Since Carter was originally diagnosed, the family has come in contact with two other local families dealing with that disease.
"We are excited that they are joining our fight. I have been able to help them and be an advocate as they are starting their journey as well," said Stiles.
Carmen Roadarmel's 9-year-old daughter Grace was diagnosed when they lived in Texas. Family moved to Bakersfield about a year ago and was grateful to get in contact with the Stiles family.
"I was really stressed out. I was desperate to find someone else dealing with this disease. I didn't have anyone else I could talk to," said Roadarmel.
The disease has brought these families together to support each other and share information.
"Knowledge is power. There's a lot more information that others have that we had no knowledge of," said Roadarmel.
In most cases individuals suffering from EoE cannot eat a normal diet without restrictions.
Carter cannot eat regular foods. Right now his main source of nutrition comes from a specialized amino acid-based formula, that in most cases is not covered by insurance.
"We just want to find ways for these children to live a better life, course the ultimate goal is a cure," said stiles.
Carter's Walk has been able to donate more than $75,000 in the past three annual events combined.
100% of the funds donated goes directly to medical research for eosinophilic diseases.
Anyone wishing to participate in the walk can show up at 7:30 a.m. at Yokuts Park for late registration.
The walk begins at 8:30 a.m.

Prior efforts to train medical journal peer reviewers have not improved subsequent review quality, although such interventions were general and brief. We hypothesized that a manuscript-specific and more extended intervention pairing new reviewers with high-quality senior reviewers as mentors would improve subsequent review quality.
Over a four-year period we randomly assigned all new reviewers for Annals of Emergency Medicine to receive our standard written informational materials alone, or these materials plus a new mentoring intervention. For this program we paired new reviewers with a high-quality senior reviewer for each of their first three manuscript reviews, and asked mentees to discuss their review with their mentor by email or phone. We then compared the quality of subsequent reviews between the control and intervention groups, using linear mixed effects models of the slopes of review quality scores over time.
We studied 490 manuscript reviews, with similar baseline characteristics between the 24 mentees who completed the trial and the 22 control reviewers. Mean quality scores for the first 3 reviews on our 1 to 5 point scale were similar between control and mentee groups (3.4 versus 3.5), as were slopes of change of review scores (-0.229 versus -0.549) and all other secondary measures of reviewer performance.
A structured training intervention of pairing newly recruited medical journal peer reviewers with senior reviewer mentors did not improve the quality of their subsequent reviews.

For all the buzz in media circles about the importance of hyper-local news, some of the best coverage of the biggest story in the city, the Kensington Strangler, is being churned out by an underemployed cake-maker single mom and a crane operator out on disability.
Two months ago, 38-year-old mother of three Heather Barton and 38-year-old Richie Antipuna could not have predicted that they would not only generate some of the most eye-opening reporting on the Strangler to date, but also become ensnared in national headlines courtesy of the now- infamous Facebook fiasco—a debacle that earned them death threats.
"We can't even go to Kensington right now because there are people out to kill us," she says. "I didn't ask for all this."
How did Barton and Antipuna go from regular civilians to hyperlocal reporters to death-threat targets in less than two months?
Well, there's the situation and then there's the story. The situation, as Barton sees it, traces back to Kensington's lack of one cohesive newspaper.
"I'll keep saying that over and over. [Kensington residents] don't have a local newspaper to … find out where services are, where to go, how to volunteer," she says. "Without a newspaper it's hard for people to network."
To be sure, there are solid community newspapers working beats defined by ZIP codes that extend into Kensington, but both the coverage and circulation of the weeklies are patchwork. For example, the Fishtown Star and the clumsily named Star of Bridesburg, Juniata and Harrowgate cover parts of Kensington while the North Star and Port Richmond Star are available in some spots. Kensington is hard to cover—it's huge and bilingual.
Worse, it seems its already-spotty online presence via Philly.com will now be even spottier since the recent sale of the whole Star lot to Broad Street Media LLC.
"My grandmother has lived [in Kensington] for 78 years, she gets no newspaper," says Barton. "Sometimes when my aunt goes shopping she'll bring the Star from Port Richmond."
So that's the situation. Then there's the story.
Two months ago, the longtime friends decided to launch a local TV show through PhillyCAM (Philadelphia Community Access Media) called the Richie Antipuna Show. Their goal was to focus on positive stories in Kensington because as self-identified "Kenzos," they have fond memories of growing up there.
"The rule of a Kenzo was to stick together and protect one another. We didn't hurt one another. We just had this bad reputation because of the poverty level I guess," says Barton. "But there are plenty of people there working hard to be part of their community."
They intended to showcase all kinds of arts and culture. The first interview was with an opera singer; Barton already interviewed Danny Bonaduce. But the vacuum created by combining the threat of a serial killer and a lack of a one-stop community news source sucked Barton and Antipuna into reporting on how the community is struggling with the Strangler.
The afternoon before the first episode even aired, organizers of the Dec. 10 vigil for victims of the Strangler called and asked them to "cover" the event.
"We were like, 'We're not the media [and] how did she even find out about our show?'" asks Barton. Hesitant, they agreed.
After Barton met the mother of the first confirmed Strangler victim at the vigil, finding and airing the Kensington perspective, nonexistent in network and national coverage, went from a civic duty to something personal.
"When I met Darrah Goldberg … that's when it hit me. She said, 'I'll never see her get married.' I'm a mother too."
Then the duo was asked to cover the Dec. 18 community meeting at Cardinal Bevilacqua Center on Kensington Avenue and they did that, too. They also conducted renegade person-on-the-street interviews for Special Report: Broken Silence. The interviews had an insider edge, revealing the neighborhood dynamics that enable a perp like the Kensington Strangler to roam free for three months.
In the video, Barton interviewed a woman who claimed that she and the third victim, Casey Mahoney, had encountered the Strangler the week before he choked Mahoney to death. "A guy identical to the guy in the picture ... approached me and asked if I could do a date with him for like $20," she said. The woman says she walked with the guy and told her friend to call the police. "[Mahoney] ran across to the pharmacy down the street and they ... wouldn't let her use the phone," she says. "[Mahoney] goes across to the beer distributor and they said no." Desperate, Mahoney asked to borrow the phone of a family standing outside but they also refused. "The attitude ... is that what happens to us, addicts or prostitutes, is on us," she shrugs. "Kind of, we deserve it."
"Because of the whole facebook fiasco. Someone posted a picture of an innocent man on their page in conjuction with the sketch as flyers were passed around the neighborhood."
"Think these two are looking for fame. Funny where were you before this monster started killing? Stop using the strangler and these victims to get tv time! Your no better then he is in my eyes and a lot of other peoples also."
"I am grateful to these two people (and the writer of this article) for their coverage of this ongoing tragedy. My daughter, Elaine, was the 1st murder victim. I agonized over the stories done by the "major media" because they called my daughter everything they could think of to ruin her reputation and worse. The monster that is still out there is the scum, not any of the victims. The interviews I've seen on the Antipuna show and the articles written by Ms. Murtha have been fair, accurate and focused where they should be. Most importantly, sensitive to the concerns of the victims' families. Elaine, Nicole and Casey were human beings. Babies that grew into young women. They had lived only a part of their lives when this no good bastard strangled them to death. Only God should have determined when my baby left this life, not that creep. Thankfully, God was there to take her from this monster's grip."
"@ Mr. Goldberg,
Thank you so much for your kind and reinforcing words. We have tried to pay special attention to the families feelings and honor the lives of Elaine, Nicole and Casey. I know nothing will ever take away your pain but I hope you find peace in your heart in knowing that your daughter is safe from any harm ever again. Please know that so many share your pain and support you and your family. Your daughter was a beautiful girl and I know better than to believe everything in the media, that is the main reason we spent so much time on this. We wanted to show the whole story and the truth. Obviously not everyone will get that message but Im thankful you do..God Bless"

Thirty-Five Years Defending Human Rights
Abi-Mershed, Elizabeth, Americas (English Edition)
The Inter-American Commission on Human Rights (IACHR) is the institutional embodiment of an ideal. Its establishment in 1959 as an expression of the commitment of the America states "to a system of freedom for the individual and of social justice based on respect for fundamental human rights" translated the ideal into action.
The creation of a special body to oversee the situation of human rights in the Americas was one of a number of pioneering efforts by the Organization of American States in this field. The OAS Charter of 1948 incorporated the "fundamental tights of the individual" as one of the principles on which the Organization was founded. The American Declaration of the Rights and Duties of Man, also approved by the General Assembly in 1948, was adopted to serve as "the initial system of protection" for human rights in the hemisphere. The Declaration affirms the essential human rights that flow from the inherent dignity of the individual, and records the commitment of the American states to increasingly strengthen the protection of human rights in the Americas. This initial step in the creation of an inter-American human rights system actually predated the adoption of the United Nations Universal Declaration of Human Rights by six months, and set the stage for the creation of a human rights commission.
Although the Commission was established in 1959 with the vague mandate "to promote human rights," its role has evolved over these thirty-five years to include specialized action to protect human rights. When the Commission started receiving information in 1960, it was not authorized to consider individual complaints as such. This shortcoming was remedied with the statutory expansion of the Commission's powers in 1965. The Commission's individual petition system is a critical element of its work program, in addition to its on-site fact-finding and the preparation and publication of its annual and special reports. When the OAS Charter was amended in 1967, the Commission was elevated to the status of a principal organ of the Organization. The entry into force of the American Convention on Human Rights transformed the Commission and the inter-American human rights system. The Convention established the Inter-American Court of Human Rights and attributed the Commission with new specialized functions. The Commission now exercises treaty-based jurisdiction over the member states that are parties to the Convention, and retains Charter-based jurisdiction over other member states. Thus, the Commission's current twofold mandate of promotion and protection reflects the incremental but dramatic development of its role from past to present.
The IACHR is the principal organ of the Organization of American States mandated to promote and protect human rights. The Commission is composed of seven members, nominated by member states and elected by the General Assembly of the OAS. The members are elected to four-year terms, which may be renewed once. Each member serves in his or her individual capacity as an expert in the field of human rights, and the Commission collectively represents all the member states of the Organization.
The Past: As Prologue
The gross human rights abuses of authoritarian rule are both the past and prologue for a hemisphere in which many countries are struggling with the transition to representative democracy. The use of disappearances as a policy tool, most prevalent during the 1970s and into the 1980s, is a manifestation of the insidious nature of human rights abuses under authoritarian rule. To be "disappeared" means to be kidnapped and held in a secret location. In most cases it means to be tortured, summarily executed, and buried clandestinely. It is a violation that by its very nature conceals itself. One of the Mothers of the Plaza de Mayo in Buenos Aires, Argentina, testified before the IACHR in 1979:
In this whole affair there was one hated word but one repeated without end: "disappeared. …

Amazing. The scenery was breath taking and the guide was amazing and made the whole experience informative and fun. Can't wait to watch all the movies and tv shows to say We have been there. Thank you.
Greg did a great job
We had so much fun on this tour. Although we were aren't hugh LOST fans, we still enjoyed the beautiful locations AND took tons of pictures. We especially liked touring the bunkers used in the movie Pearl Harbor and all of the Jurassic Park and Jurassic World locations. Our tour guide, Scotty, was funny, knowledgeable and friendly. I would highly recommend you ask for him if you take this tour. His album of pictures was not only awesome, but highly informative. There were only four of us on this weekday afternoon tour, so we had lots of time to visit and take pictures. I would definitely recommend this tour if you are visiting Waikiki.
Great to see the filming locations from some of my favourite shows. The tour guide was great, very informative.
My niece and I had so much fun on this tour. Although she wasn't a LOST fan like me, she enjoyed the beautiful locations AND took tons of pictures. She especially liked touring the bunkers used in the movie Pearl Harbor and all of the Jurassic Park and Jurassic World locations. Our tour guide, Greg B., was funny, knowledgeable and friendly. I would highly recommend you ask for him if you take this tour. He is a member of SAG-AFTRA and has worked on many of the productions that have filmed in Hawaii. His album of pictures was not only awesome, but highly informative. There were only four of us on this weekday afternoon tour, so we had lots of time to visit and take pictures. I will definitely be taking my sons on this tour next time I visit Hawaii.
United States of America
This was the highlight of our time in Honolulu! Greg was a great driver and told us a lot of local information. He is also a gifted photographer. Thanks to him, we have lots of pictures with both me and my husband in them. I love the props he has to make some awesome photos too. His driving skills were excellent and we saw so many great movie sites. Great memories!
Highly recommend doing this tour had an excellent time seeing all the movie locations our driver and guide was great looked after us the whole time very friendly and informative.
A highlight of our trip to Hawaii. Our guide Jeff was very knowledgeable and gave us a fantastic tour. I really liked the small group size too.
Tour was wonderful. Highly recommend
This tour was amazing!
Our guide Jeff in the Yellow Hummer was excellent. The trip was fun, entertaining and full of exciting details about different movies and sights. Highly recommend this tour. Will be back next year to do it again.
Awesome tour! The tour guide/ driver was brill and very knowledgeable and took loads of photos of us. The Lost locations were the best part, particularly on the ranch, but we were also very excited about the Jurassic park log! Excellent day out 100% recommended!
We went off road in a Hummer to visit some of Hawaii's most well known movie and TV locations - Jurassic Park, Jurassic World, Wind Talkers, Tears of the Sun, Godzilla, George of the Jungle, Mighty Joe Young, Pearl Harbour, 50 First Dates, Snakes on a Plane, You Me and Dupree, Karate Kid II, Along Came Polly, Battleship, Journey 2 and not to mention Lost, Last Resort, Hawaii Five-0 and more. Great day thank you Scotty and the tour operators at Kualoa Ranch thank you thank you thank you
This tour was so worth the money and I would recommend it to everyone. The places that we visited at the movie locations was absolutely beautiful. The off-roading that we did in the Hummer was so much fun and very exciting! Our guide was fantastic!!! He took several pictures of us at the movie location sites that made me laugh! You don't want to miss this tour!!!
Michael G
We thoroughly enjoyed this tour. Would recommend it to anyone. Jeff, our driver, was able to show us some key movie sites that we would not have been aware of. He was a great tour guide and the photo shots are memorable. My daughter is a keen Hawaii Five-O fan however as a result of the tour we are now viewing. We were fortunate that there was a Lost convention on around the time of the tour and one of the attendees was on our tour. Jeff also informed us of where the Hawaii Five-O actors were shooting a scene that day. Definitely recommend
Our tour and guide,Scott, were fantastic! We enjoyed ourselves immensely. While we are not Lost fans the tour had something for us Jurassic park fans as well. The scenery is worth the trip alone...simply amazing! Thanks for a great day!
Loved this tour! You get picked up in a hummer from your hotel and driven to all the movie locations. I mainly went for Jurassic Park and even though I hadn't seen some of the other movies and TV shows, the scenery alone is amazing! You get to experience a little bit of off-road driving which was great fun. The hummer only seats 4 adults at one time which is really nice and feels more personal. The tour guide was really cool and knowledgeable and made the whole experience memorable. Highly recommended!
We had a great time! Greg was out tour guide. He was fun and had so many stories to tell! We loved it!! If we get the chance to make it to Hawaii again we would definitely take this tour, or even a longer one, again! Especially if Greg was out tour guide again.
Absolutely FANTASTIC!!! Our tour guide was Dave and he was full of interesting facts and info about our tour and Oahu and Hawaii in general. Our friends were in another hummer on our tour and their guide wasn't as informative as ours, so after each pitstop we made sure they had some more info. You might like to BYO drinks and snacks -( we got a bottle of warm water and no snacks)
This was a great tour for our young family and a terrific way to see all the great movie locations and some AMAZING Oahu scenery!
Watch all the movies before you go - it was fun seeing all the locations!
A great experience with a great tour guide. Well worth the money. Got to see parts of Oahu we otherwise probably wouldn't have seen. Loved the photo and video accompaniments. Definitely an experience to remember.
The tour was more than I expected. I always wondered what was over those Hawaiian mountains, and what was in the valleys of the Koalua Ranch. The view and landscapes were amazing! Our guide seemed a bit tired at times, but it was an early morning pick-up at 7am, which means we all had to get up super early. Super nice guy. He told really good stories of his time with the "Lost" cast and crew, and offered a lot of background info on other film locations. We saw a lot! Our family and friends really loved the photos our guide took of us. Super funny!. Oh, and we got to go off-roading. Whee! This tour was well worth the money spent.
This was the most awesome tour! The ride in the Hummer was neat and the group was small so we felt like we were getting personal treatment. David our tour guide was excellent, polite, genuine, and knew what he was talking about. We went to many Lost, Jurassic Park, and other famous locations and had plenty of time to take photos and walk about. This tour is highly recommended as it a lot better than the usual cram 20 people in a minibus tours. Will be keen to do it again next time we are in Hawaii. Steve and Shining from NZ.
Tour was a lot of fun and the tour guide was very knowledge. If you like the show "Lost" you will love this tour.
This was our first and best tour on our trip to Hawaii. The driver Greig was great, funny and very informative. Enjoyed the 'off road experience' and visiting all the movie/lost locations. It was a good way to see different parts of the Island as well, beautiful scenery away from the hustle and bustle of the city. Highly recommend this tour.
We went on this tour as we are Lost fans and it was really amazing. We did lots of reading up in advance about the company to ensure this. Greg our driver was really good and a huge lost fan too. You don't realise how many movies were filmed here until you do this tour! To be honest the trip is worth it just to go into the canyon on a 4x4 as you go much deeper than all the quads / horses. The views are the most amazing and totally mind blowing!

This looks like BIApps installation issue. I would suggest contacting BIApps experts/forum on help on this.

I'm not surprised. My wife and I live in France about 3/4 of the year. The interest in analogue photography is much bigger in Europe and the UK than in North America. France and England each have several large vendors of films, paper, chemicals and equipment. The photo magazine I read every month always includes some analogue info and has an extra issue every year dedicated to black and white.
It just seems to be more of an 'arts' mentality. At any given time, there are dozens of photo exhibits going on in Paris and London. To find even one or two on the go in Toronto is becoming a rarity.
I have people in Canada and the US look at me like I'm from another planet when they find out I'm shooting film, in Europe, they don't give it a second thought.

text: Please note: I fully support the F2P model and pay options, when done right. This game has many features that were designed in a vacuum with only revenue in mind. Warning: This is long with details. Skip to "this should not be possible" near the bottom if you don't care about the details. Honestly, the entire aspect of sealed flutes is probably a bad idea, but the pay option, with the way the flutes are right now, is a horrible move. Here's why: First consider the overall costs associated with only dragons: 1 time costs: - Full slots - $19.70 - The inventory portion of this is fine, the lair is pretty spendy, especially for those that purchased founder packs. (You do have something to show for the money spent) Revolving costs: - Production > 5 hours: Possibly max of $4.80 or roughly $144 a month (If used for flutes or napolite, this would fall under the "designed to disappoint category) - Production/Training Results Boost (increases the amount up the x3) - Possible max of $43.20 a day or $1296 a month (If used for flutes or napolite, this also would fall under "designed to disappoint" category) Now consider the costs already attached to features that are designed to disappoint (The concept is simple. If the feature disappoints more than it doesn't, then it is designed to disappoint.) Example #1: Field training. I know people who have paid for $9.00 with no results. I personally spent $4.50 before getting a result and a considerable amount more getting the results i wanted on 3 dragons. Additionally, you can't control which way the train goes so you may end up, like I did. Paying $0.50 a pop to remove the elite skills that weren't skill training mastery. Example #2: Dragon drive potion. People with full charisma builds likely won't fell to negative about this, but if we tried for a balanced build, it would be mandatory. Even worse, you burn a potion and still can't capture the dragon? Or you burn a potion and you get a 4 slot ancient with Taunt and Replacement taking up 2 of the slots. Finally, now, not only is everyone convinced that the rates were ratcheted down. Guilds with rank 3/4 flutes and 4 extraction are seeing worse results than when we had rank 1 flutes and no extraction buff. So you can't even notice buffs that are supposed to be a guild triumph. However, you can notice, and it was even in the patch notes that they are increasing the rate of sealed flutes. (/innocent sarcastic tone) Why on earth would they do that I wonder?? Because there is a pay option for the seal breaking powder. More importantly however, the dragon drive potion is voluntary at the moment you see a dragon you want to capture. Now, you don't have control over the slots and could get a 4 slot turd, but you do have control over which dragon you get. The new seal breaking powder, close to 3 times the price, and for what? The last purple I used was a majestic crown with 2 or 3 rank I elite skills. How are you going to feel if you paid $1.50 for that? What if you get an ancient, use a dragon drive potion and aren't able to capture it? Everything is designed to keep sucking money out of the players. - In my bank, 4 - 10 slot ancients that I used dragon drive potions on and beginner dragon soul (they each came from different days) - Not done yet.. each has 10 slots and only comes with minimal skills, I have to train them. at 3 x a day, it could take me weeks to train the skills I want onto one dragon. Unfortunately, I can't control which way the training goes - Each one of them came with 2 or more elite skills (All but 1 are rank I). That means if I want those dragons focused on fighting and I don't want to cross field train elite skills instead of combat skills, I have to pay $0.50 to remove them. I have paid $0.45 trying to train a dragon and had an elite skill transfer that I then paid $0.50 to remove, yet the original remained, so I paid another $0.50 to remove it. You don't have to do a deep analysis on these features to be impacted by them. Every time a player spends money and something negative happens, it impacts the relationship with the publisher/dev and the player. The players already have plenty to feel burned about, but now this $1.50 seal breaking powder comes into play front and center of one of the most enjoyable features. At this point, people don't need anymore disappointment in the game, let alone revolving around the flutes and taming dragons. This should not be possible: - I pay for 24 hours of flute production on 6 dragons. $4.80 - I pay for x3 production for all. $43.20 - The result is: 432 flutes Today 2 guild mates, with rank 3 flutes and rank 4 extraction extracted a combined 500 flutes resulting in a total of 2 unsealed blues. They only got 1 seal breaking powder total. From there you could pay $1.50 for a sealed purple and end up with a 10 slot majestic crown. Or a 10 slot ancient with 4 rank I elites and 1 usable skill. Or a 10 slot ancient with taunt, replacement and some elite skills. All of which will need training or removal of elite skills. (I just offered up my jade soul with those 2 soul skills ). No matter how much you spend in that process, you have such a tiny chance of anything positive happening or coming out with something to show for the money spent. How do you fix it (off the top of my head): - One idea is stop trying to monetize everything for gods sake and quit trying to be tricky about it. People will feel it whether they analyze it or not. - For the things you will monetize, make them more reasonable. If it is a multiple times a day cost it shouldn't be more than $0.10. You will get more people using it, less negative feelings building up because of it. - Whenever and where ever possible, give value in return or a minimum some benefit for paying. If someone uses a $1.50 seal breaking powder, make the dragon easier so they don't have to use a dragon drive. Give them a better chance of an ancient. If you purchase a dragon drive prior to spawning a dragon, give them a slightly better chance at an ancient. Give them both rare chances of 12 slot dragons. This all assuming no one is going to bother using $1.50 on a blue flute. Let us pay $0.25 to convert 10 sealed blues into an unsealed purple. For field training, make it much cheaper and reliable. Sell 3 packs if you want a larger commitment, but still make it cheaper. World of Tanks sells premium tanks from $35 on up. You get a tank, but not only that, one that gets favorable match making and significantly increased credit production. So not just a tank, but ongoing functional benefits and the players love Wargaming for it and will purchased multiple. Bottom line, consider fixing and staying away from any pay features that have a chance of making the players feel like they have lost. If anything have things fall, on average, more towards break even and if you absolutely have to have some possible loss, have a possible win too.


text: Could someone tell me the Google terms or where to look in a general chemistry textbook. I want to know the exact volume after one substance is dissolved into another. For example I know a liter of alcohol and a liter of water don't combine to make exactly two liters Or let's say I have 1 liter of water I add 1 gram table salt. It dissolves and I have a saltwater solution with density of 1.001 Is the above exactly correct? Does the dissolved NaCl not add any volume? If someone could give me a hint and how to find the details I'd be happy. I last took chemistry 25 years ago but I think we used approximate methods. I'm looking to know the physics involved.

Fairbridge Village
Fairbridge is an historic village not too far from Pinjarra. It is in a serene rural setting in the rolling foothills of the Darling Range.
It dates back to the 1920's when Kingsley Fairbridge purchased land to build a working farm for orphaned children from England. His vision was to teach homeless children farming skills to be used in the new and growing colony of Western Australia.
Most of the buildings were built between 1921 and 1938 many of which are still used today. Please take the time to check out the attached website and find out a bit more of the local history around Pinjarra.

Mandurah is a short drive to the coast. Famous for its Mediterranean climate of warm summers mild winters which is combined with the protected waters, excellent beaches, superb fishing and crabbing, international golf facilities! Mandurah is a magnet for surfers from all over the world.
Serpentine is well known for its waterfall which cascades over a sheer granite rock face. The area is also important for two rare species of tree, the Darling Range ghost gum and the Salmon white gum. Serpentine is approximately 47 kms SE of Perth, and just north of Pinjarra.
Rockingham is a popular tourist spot with beautiful safe beaches and lots of opportunities for water sports. The sheltered waters of Cockburn Sound are home to Garden Island, Penguin Island and Seal Island. When living in Perth I used to visit Rockingham mainly for shopping but the drive is also nice.
The Murray River
Murray River is located 70 km south of Perth and flows between Pinjarra and Mandurrah into the Peel outlet. There are many attractions around the Murray such as river rafting and winery tours. You can also hire houseboats.
