Gov. Paul LePage had some choice words for one Democrat - and, has been the case on other occasions, the governor's remarks made national news. As Jay Field reports, LePage used a sexually explicit phrase to denounce Sen. Troy Jackson, an Allagash Democrat who gave his party's response to the governor's promise to veto the state budget.
In comments to reporters, Jackson (left) said LePage was inaccurate and delusional to suggest that Democrats had been unwilling to meet with him on the budget.
A short time later, the governor emerged from his office to speak with Paul Merrill, a reporter for WMTW, Portland's ABC affiliate. Merrill pressed LePage on Jackson's view that the Democrats have the votes to override his veto.
"Senator Jackson claims to be for the people. But he's the first one to give it to the people, without providing Vaseline," LePage said.
LePage continued his attack on Jackson. "He doesn't only have no brains. He has a black heart. And so does the leadership upstairs."
"People like Troy Jackson," LePage went on to say, "ought to go back into the woods and cut trees and somebody with a brain come down here and do some work."
A few hours later, Jackson, who works as a logger when the Legislature's not in session, met the media to respond. "It's unfortunate that the man who is supposed to be the leader of our state makes comments like that," Jackson said.
But Jackson says he has a thick skin. He says he's been insulted before by people who disagree with him and isn't personally offended by the governor's comments.
"Maybe I am the country bumpkin," he said. "But that doesn't bother me. What's in my heart is good and I'm comfortable with that. I'll go back in the woods anytime."
At the end of his interview with WMTW, the reporter suggested to LePage that his Vaseline comment, in particular, might offend some people. "Good," LePage replied, "It ought to, because I've been taking it for two years."
Watch WMTW-TV reporter Paul Merrill's entire interview with Gov. Paul LePage.

WASHINGTON—The U.S. envoy to the United Nations says Syrian President Bashar Assad "has barely put a dent in his enormous stockpile" of chemical weapons that American officials believe killed more than 1,400 people outside Damascus last month.

Ambassador Samantha Power says the world has done very little to curb Assad's willingness to use the deadly nerve agents again.
Power also said Friday the United States has exhausted all alternatives short using of military force to deter Assad from using chemical weapons on his own people in the future.
Power was speaking at the liberal-leaning Center for American Progress think-tank in Washington.
She again accused Russia of blocking a U.N. Security Council vote to take action in Syria.

A California-based corporation moves into south Beloit, bringing new jobs.
Minarik Corporation, a motor-drive maker, broke ground Tuesday on a 1,000 square-foot addition to a closed factory in south Beloit. Production in the plant is scheduled to begin in January. President and CEO John Hegel says he picked the location over Two Rivers, Wisconsin, because several of the company's suppliers and customers are in northern Illinois.
Minarik is a national leader in the manufacture of high-tech motion control and automation systems.

Steps for Studying Abroad
Steps for Studying Abroad
Millersville University students may study abroad in nearly every country worldwide for a summer, a semester or an academic year. Although most students study abroad during their junior year, students may study or do an internship abroad for academic credit any time after completing 24 academic credits of study (individual department policies may vary).
Students may participate in study abroad through:
- Millersville's own international partners (called MU Programs)
- Other accredited U.S. institutions' programs (called Non-MU programs)
- Directly through some international universities (also called Non-MU programs).
All students participating in any study/intern abroad program pay a participation fee for each term that they are abroad. The participation fee for a subsequent term will be waived if, at the time of application, students indicate they will study/intern abroad for more than one term at the same program.

Murder probe after man, 20, found stabbed near Canary Wharf
21:43 29 May 2012
A man has died during a stabbing incident on the Isle of Dogs in east London tonight.
Police were called to reports of a knife incident in Millwall involving several people in a cul de sac off Lanterns Way, at 7.20pm.
They found a 20-year-old who was pronounced dead at the scene half-a-mile south of Canary Wharf.
A murder investigation has now been started by detectives from the Met's Homicide & Serious Crime Command as Scotland Yard launched an appeal a short while ago for witnesses.
Three others were injured in what appears to have been an altercation.
Police have arrested a man and woman, who have been taken to separate police stations tonight for questioning while investigations continue.
Police know the identity of the man who died and have informed his next of kin, but he hasn't yet been formally identified.
Scotland Yard is appealing this evening for witnesses or anyone who was in Larson Walk, a cul de sac off Lanterns Way next to Millharbour, or anyone with information, to call police on 101 or Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800-555111.

It is getting to be that time of year. The time where we all need gift ideas for neighbors, teachers, caregivers, the mailman etc. It can be hard to come up with those little gifts each year. I am a firm believer that, if you put the time and effort into making something, it will be much more appreciated. So I would much rather bake someone cookies than buy them a gift card. Today Susan from The Wimpy Vegetarian is hosting the #SundaySupper "Holiday Gifts from the Kitchen" event.
We moved into our house over the summer. We live on a long cul-de-sac, and I have yet to meet all of our neighbors. I was thinking of baking mini loaves of bread this year, and delivering them around the block as a way of meeting everyone. The first time I saw this bread was at Love From The Oven, where she used applesauce and flax meal. Then I saw Budget Gourmet Mom had a version with Greek Yogurt, and I was sold.
This made 4 mini loaves, or 1 full sized loaf if you don't feel like sharing. Pumpkin and Biscoff were pretty much made for each other. This isn't the first time I have had the combination, and it won't be the last. This bread is tender, and full of the great pumpkin flavor you love. I printed the recipe, and glued it to a colored piece of paper. I then used ribbons and a plastic gift bag to package it. All set for delivery! If you really liked your neighbors you could get ceramic mini loaf pans. I have seen them at Michael's craft store for $1.99.

RAW VISION: Cossack militia attack punk group Pussy Riot with horsewhips as they try to perform under a sign advertising the Olympics. WARNING VIOLENT IMAGES.PT0M0S 620 349
The Pussy Riot punk group has been attacked in Sochi by Cossacks wielding whips and pepper spray, as they were about to perform a song.
Witnesses said members of the group had just put on their trademark brightly coloured balaclavas in a restaurant in Sochi in preparation for the performance. But when they left the restaurant they were set upon by about a dozen Cossacks – local militia who are used by police to help patrol the town, AP reported.
One Cossack smashed their guitar and others tried to rip off the balaclavas.
A Cossack about to attack Nadezhda Tolokonnikova (wearing the blue balaclava) as Maria Alekhina holds her fist high.
Group member Nadezhda Tolokonnikova tweeted that "Cossacks attacked us, beat us with whips and abundantly sprayed us with pepper gas".
Another band member, Maria Alyokhina, tweeted a photo of a man with a bloodied face.
She said the man was a member of Pussy Riot, and had a "cracked eyebrow after the attack of the Cossacks".

A local activist associated with the group said the male member of Pussy Riot had been "brutally beaten" by the Cossacks.
In Russian, David Hakim said the Cossacks had used pepper spray and beaten them with whips.
His account was backed up by a reporter for VICE News, Simon Ostrovsky, who said "group of Cossacks just thrashed Pussy Riot in Sochi with whip handles and pepper spray".
A Cossack militiaman attacks Tolokonnikova and a photographer.
He said one of the Cossacks had been detained.
AP reported that when police arrived and questioned witnesses, no one was arrested.
On Tuesday, members of Pussy Riot were detained for three hours by police, reportedly for questioning over a theft at a local hotel.
Cossacks restrain a male member of Pussy Riot after the group tried to perform in Sochi.
They said they were in Sochi to perform a song called Putin Will Teach You to Love the Motherland.
It was "dedicated to prisoners of the swamp [referring to a May 2012 political protest that turned violent in Moscow's Bolotnaya Square], corrupt Olympics, ecologist Vitishko and suppressed freedoms in Russia".
According to some news reports they were also filming a video clip for the song.
Activist filmmakers Gogol's Wives, who have been following Pussy Riot, tweeted late on Tuesday night that a Cossack had been walking with a whip around the hotel where they were staying.

On Wednesday morning the International Olympic Committee warned Pussy Riot not to come to the Olympic park for any political demonstration.
After the arrest on Tuesday there were some reports that they would try to perform at the Olympic park, half an hour away.
"If they did it would be wholly inappropriate," said IOC spokesman Mark Adams.
A local activist later tweeted a photo of Pussy Riot, apparently recovered from the attack, performing in front of the Olympic rings outside the local administrative offices in Sochi.

Thank you for helping make our site better.
PartSelect Number PS2180047
This part includes the black handle, latch and 2 switches. This part is a simple on/off mechanism that prohibits the dishwasher from operating when the door is open.
This part works with the following brands: Whirlpool, Admiral, Estate, Inglis, Kenmore, KitchenAid, Roper, Maytag, Crosley, Jenn-Air, Hardwick, Magic Chef, Amana, Caloric & Glenwood.
This part fixes the following symptoms:
This part includes the white handle, door latch and 2 switches. This part is a simple on/off mechanism that prohibits the dishwasher from operating when the door is open.
This bisque door latch with the switches is a simple on/off mechanism that prohibits the dishwasher from operating when the door is open.
Please NOTE: The bisque handle is no longer available separately. Only available with this assembly.
I Followed others' instructions already posted to replace the whole handle assembly. In particular, use a big screwdriver placed against the bottom of the handle and whack the grip with the palm of your hand to get the handle to move back to the open position so you can open the door and start the job. I am no handyman, but this fix was easy, about 30 minutes in all, most of which was spent figuring out which breaker to pull so as not to get shocked. One note of caution: use the correct screwdriver attachment (not a Phillips head or regular, but a star or something- see I am not a handyman but I do have a $15 screwdriver set that just paid for itself 10 times over!).
Help other customers find the most helpful instructions.
Were these instructions helpful?
Removed all visible screws from inside of door. Everything came apart easily and the replacements went in smoothly. No problems.
This repair was fairly quick and easy. The parts are much better made than the stock Maytag. The parts from PartSelect came lightening quick! Never used before, always Sears, but will ALWAYS use from now on!So, first, make super sure all power is disconnected. Then take the torx and remove all the screws on interior front cover - the top center two actually hold the latch assembly and handle. Once all are removed, I propped the cover up and left all wiring connected. I removed the switches connected to the old latch assembly and just removed the new switches from the new latch assembly, and popped the old ones onto the new latch assembly. Now have new switches if the old ones ever wear out. The latch assembly just pops out from what should be two sets of plastic peg clips molded into the black control panel back. Mine were busted on one side. So I molded some jb weld on the remaining sides to the pegs on the latch assembly and then screwed all back together (the controls on the panel are fine, not spending $85 if I can get away with sticking it...and the upper center two screws do the most of the holding anyway). Works great again. I really am ultra impressed with the HUGE difference in reinforcement that the new handle has. If Maytag would have built it that way to begin with, should not have broke. Anyway, if you are here just checking to see if you can do and how much parts are, place the order - it is no problem and cheap, and will probably never give up and break again.
I ordered a new control panel, latch assembly and latch handle. The panel and latch assembly (which includes two contact switches) came quickly, the cheapest part (latch handle) was on back order. I was surpised when the handle came because it included a new latch assembly with the handle already attached, maybe an improved design? I shut off elecricity to the dishwasher, opened the door and removed the 11 torx T-20 screws. The inner panel lifts up and I then unplugged the electrical connector at the soap dispenser, unplugged the 2 connectors at the latch assembly contact switches (remember which is which). The inner panel can be removed and set aside. These connectors are tight coming off, so use care and maybe some Channel locks to wiggle them loose. If your changing the control panel, remove the cover over the circuit board, a ribbon connector goes into this and has a sliding collar, slide up to loosen and remove the ribbon, fully insert the new ribbon and slide back down to tighten. I used a 1/4 inch nut driver to remove the screws holding the panel. The latch assembly with handle attached snaps into brackets on the panel, re-install the control panel, routing the ribbon cable carefully. Replace the cover over the electronics, plug all the elecrical connections back in, replace the torx screws. Turn on the power. The new parts seem much better than the original.
First, I researched the part on this website and found the suitable replacement part...the number is different from the original Maytag part. I placed the order and the part arrived quickly. Then I used the appropriate driver to loosen the 11 screws that are around the inside of the door. I pulled up on the plastic panel to gain access to the handle and latch assembly and the old handle fell out as well as the latch assembly. I took off the electrical clips(this was the hardest part....you have to pull hard) and re-attached them to the new part. I put the handle and latch assembly in place-they come together as a single unit which makes it far easier to replace than just the handle alone-and then re-posistioned the plastic inner door, and finally tightened the screws. Shut the door and opened to test. Done deal. No problem.
I removed the 11 screws that hold the plastic inner liner to the outer sheet metal of the door. The latch will be right there, and very easy to access. I Just removed the two connectors for the wires, which are a bit stubborn, and used a pliers for leverage to get them off the latch. Installed them on the new latch, and put the door halves back together, and ran the 11 screws back in. A side note, I have noticed that on the plastic front panel that houses the buttons, that there are two plastic tabs that are cast into the unit, that are chronically broken. They are there to help hold the latch solid when you put the two halves of the door together. I have been really easy on the door, but they still break, but it seems to work pretty well without the tabs intact. This happened to me twice, because I replaced the front upper panel on it, and the same thing happened again. Engineering issue I assume. Overall, a quick and simple install.
first i removed eight torx (t-20) size screws...from the inner door . Then the wired harness surrounding the latch handle...( just a warning..im very very handy..esp with electric and got a little too cocky....pls make sure you turn off the power to the dishwasher...and avoid being zapped as i did ok?) the replacement part snapped in perfectly and was actually better quality than the maytag original...all it took then was to put the eight screws back and the washer was up and running in about 1o mins..
This repair was very easy. First, I opened the dishwasher, removed the screws (they are torx) and removed the old handle assembly. I removed the inner liner from the door, and to do that I had to pull out the electrical wires. I turned off the power, always a good idea. I should have marked the polarity on the plugs before removing them, since you can put them back on wrong (and I did).I also used caulk to hold the assembly on the bottom, since the cheap plastic molded forks holding the assembly on had broken. Most of the holding force comes from screws at the top. The caulk provides just a little adhesion, and will be easy to remove if the handle should need to be removed again--which I consider unlikely.
Shut off the power. Opened dishwasher door fully and removed 10 screws around outside edge. Lifted the inside panel up carefully and set to side with wires attached to soap dispenser. Removed two screws that held handle in place and removed wires. On the bottom o fthe door there are 4 screws 2 on each side that have to be removed from the hinges. You can now remove front panel. Take four screws out of control pad that hold the pad to the front panel. Simply reverse steps to reassemble. Takes about 30 minutes.
Door gasket was easy out and in using the white mark on the seal to line it up with the center. The latch came with the handle so I returned the extra latch assembly that I ordered. Super easy to install. Removed door screws, carefully lifted and set aside inside of door leaving wires attached. Reved wire from latchtch switches, attached wires to new latch, put in postion and reassembled.
After purchasing some torx head screwdrivers, it was easy to remove the front door of the diswasher and see that a few tiny plastic pieces had broken on the latch, rendering the entire dishwasher unusable. I found all of the broken pieces, and it took about 5 minutes to order replacement parts from partselect.com. What a great website! The schematics made it simple to identify exactly the parts I needed. The parts arrived promptly, fit perfectly, and installation was a breeze.
Removed all screws from the perimeter of the inner door panelRemoved (2) connectors from inner door panel and set it aside. Note this was difficult, but was finally accomplished by using a pliers and pulling on the connector body. Instructions should be included on how to remove these to prevent damage.Removed circuit board plastic cover.Unplugged Flex circuit conductor strip from circuit board.Removed control panel and door latch asm from outer door panel.Replaced parts in reverse order.Problem: The flexible conductor strip attached to the control panel had a sticky red adhesive at the tip extending about 3 inches and was stuck onto the panel. Was this for shipping reasons?Anyway, the sticky goo would not let the strip plug into the circuit board or make a reliable connection.The Dishwasher worked for one day then would not operate the next day.I had to disassemble the panels again and clean the glue off with Goo Gone. I was taking a chance because I didn't know if the Goo Gone would affect the carbon conductors on the strip.Anyway, it now is working again.Suggestion: You need to include instructions about attaching the flat conductor strip to the circuit board.Also, It does not seem proper to put the glue over the connector end of the strip. Even though the glue was on the side of the strip opposite the actual carbon conductors it got all over everything just due to handling and had to be cleaned off.I would suggest tape or something more easily removed or apply the glue away from the tip a couple of inches or more.
Turn-off the dishwasher power at the circuit breaker. Open the dishwasher door flat. Remove the 11 screws around the perimeter of the door using a t-20 torx bit (available at any hardware store). The latch assembly is held on by the top middle two door screws. Pull latch assembly out from top of door. Remove the black and white cable assembly connectors from the latch assembly making sure to note which side each color is on. If you have trouble sliding the connector off, use a flat screwdriver carefully to pry it, but do not pull on the wires. Install cable connectors onto new latch assembly making making sure the black and white cables are on the correct sides. Position the door at a 45 degree angle and place the latch assembly into position while putting the white inner door over it. Reinstall the 11 torx screws around the side of the door being sure the screws are snug, but not overtightened. Test the operation of your dishwasher. The new latch assembly seems to be built better than the factory original.
Used torx bit to remove screws on door and removed the back of door. Removed wiring from switches (2) on broken latch and removed latch. Plugged in switches on new latch and placed latch in position. Screwed back of door into place and that was it! Very simple task and new latch looks and feels much more sturdy than old one.
Removed the screws holding the door liner in place removed latch. Waited for half of the parts to get here, about 2 weeks. Parts got here except for Door latch and seal they were back ordered. One month after I ordered all parts finally arrive. Replace door latch assembly and replace door seal reinstall retaining screws....Done works good again. Parts were all the correct ones just took a long time to get here.

(USA TODAY) -- Initially, Instagram's privacy policy update
seemed innocent enough: make sharing data with its new owner Facebook
easier while fighting spam and other unenjoyable stuff for users.
new details on its revised Terms of Use suggest Instagram may start
pulling user photos and incorporating them into ads -- without pay.
to the Terms that take effect on January 16, Instagram says that some
parts of their photo-sharing service might be supported by advertisers.
Sounds straightforward enough until their next statement:
help us deliver interesting paid or sponsored content or promotions,
you agree that a business or other entity may pay us to display your
username, likeness, photos (along with any associated metadata), and/or
actions you take, in connection with paid or sponsored content or
promotions, without any compensation to you."
Translation: Users could find their filtered photos in ads on Instagram, and not see a dime. The new Terms were first spotted by The New York Times.
how can they do this? Although Instagram says users still have
ownership of their photos, their Terms state by adding a photo to your
account, you are giving the service license to use your content.
the New York Times points out, the only way to stop Instagram from
using your pics is by killing off your account. However, for those who
enjoy a world of filtered mobile pics, there are several alternatives
including Hipstamatic and Twitter.

Comments On Sep 24, 2010:I tried this adapter with my Iphone 3g and it doesn't work. I tried it with my new Iphone 4 and it doesn't work. I did try it with my buddy's ipod and it works fine, however you have no volume control over the music. I recommend getting the xbi2 dongle gateway adapter and plugging it into the 3.5mm jack so you'll have volume control. I run a 3.5mm cord from my iphone to GMRS X1 and it works great. I plan on trying the XBi2 Dongle gateway adapter. See my review on the GMRS X1 for more details.

Sasuke Uchiha uses this technique to apply Shape Transformation to the inextinguishable black flames of Amaterasu manipulating them at will. With it he can create a barrier that not only shields him, but also burns and pierces any opponent that touches the flames. The technique can also be used in conjunction with his Susanoo, and its weaponry.[1] While Amaterasu is cast from Sasuke's left eye, he uses his right eye to manipulate the flames.[2]
After obtaining the Eternal Mangekyō Sharingan, Sasuke can now use Kagutsuchi in the form of a sword, using it to slice through Kabuto's Spider Web Unrolling technique with relative ease.[3]
Similar to other Mangekyō Sharingan abilities, Kagutsuchi's name is derived from Japanese myth and religion. Kagutsuchi is the God of Fire in Shinto and the one who brought death into the world by burning his mother Izanami to death as she gave birth to him. This made his father, Izanagi, kill him with the Totsuka sword.
- Although the sword version is simply called "Blaze Release: Kagutsuchi" in the manga, in Naruto Shippūden: Ultimate Ninja Storm 3, it is named "Sword of Kagutsuchi" (加具土命の剣, Kagutsuchi no Tsurugi, Literally meaning: Added Tool Earth-Lord Sword).
- When this technique was used for the first time, the furigana were written in katakana. In chapter 585 they were written in hiragana instead.

WHS Spearheads DoD's CFC Campaign and Gives Hope to Those in Need
Washington Headquarters Services (WHS) coordinates the annual Combined Federal Campaign (CFC) fundraising efforts across the Department of Defense. This year, the CFC season will run from September through mid-January, impacting the lives of people all over the world.
In 1961, President John F. Kennedy formally established the federal government-wide effort that has become the world's largest and most successful workplace giving campaign, serving over 4,000 nonprofit charitable organizations worldwide. The charities supported through the CFC range from emerging community groups to large, well-known charities. Since its inception, CFC has raised over $7 billion for charities benefiting those in need.
WHS plays a critical role in the orchestration of the CFC each year, ensuring the success of the campaign by providing training to campaign managers, coordinators, and keyworkers throughout the Department, as well as organizing special events and charity fairs to encourage participation and giving. As Deputy Secretary of Defense, the Honorable Ashton B. Carter, stated at this year's DoD CFC Kick-off event, "the people of the DoD have an incredible capacity for service" and are "the type of people who serve the rest of humanity hoping to be part of something bigger than ourselves."
The theme of this year's CFC of the National Capital Area, "Make it Possible," is a reflection of the WHS and DoD-wide dedication to service. This year, WHS has established a fundraising goal of $180,000 and the DoD National Capital Region goal is $12.5 million. More information regarding the 2013 CFC can be found on the CFC website.Read More

WASHINGTON (AP) -- A deaf former inmate in the District of Columbia is suing the Department of Corrections, saying he was mistreated while serving a 60-day sentence for assault.
Pierce, who says he's HIV-positive, also alleges that he couldn't take one of the medications prescribed for his illness.
Officials didn't immediately respond to messages seeking comment.
Pierce was sent early last year to serve his sentence at a private facility next to the D.C. jail. That facility is run by a for-profit company that has a contract with the District to house prisoners.

Norfolk, VA (Sports Network) - Cedrick Lindsay scored 19 points to lead the
Richmond Spiders to a win over the in-state rival Old Dominion Monarchs,
80-53, at the Ted Constant Convocation Center.
Lindsay shot 8-of-11 from the floor and dished out seven assists for the
Spiders (7-2). Greg Robbins and Darien Brothers each added 14 points.
Nick Wright led the way for the Monarchs (1-7) with 16 points. DeShawn Painter
added eight points and 10 rebounds.
Richmond took control early on, jumping out to an 11-point lead midway through
the first half. The Spiders led 38-19 at the break in large part because ODU
shot just 18.8 percent from the field. Richmond also dominated the Monarchs in
the paint, outscoring ODU 18-8 from inside.
ODU started making shots in the second half and shot 46.6 percent but
turnovers and an inability to stop Richmond did the Monarchs in. The Spiders
scored 15 points off of turnovers in the second half compared to two for Old
Despite the loss, ODU still leads the all-time series, 29-24.

The government has said the decision to allow girl students who have been impregnated to go back to school after delivery is yet to be taken, though it is still under consideration.
Minister for Community Development, Gender and Children Sophia Simba told the House yesterday when reacting to a supplementary question by Susan Lyimo (Special Seats - Chadema), who wanted to know the progress of the study.
The minister said several matters emerged during the exercise, some supporting it and others rejecting the idea.
"It never went as we expected, but we, the government, still hold the same stand. We request you members of parliament, as parents, to tell your councils on ways to solve this problem," she said.
In he basic question, Lyimo had wanted to know government plans to support women.
The minister said many women had not received enough opportunities to further their education in some communities.
Simba said following the situation her ministry in collaboration with other stakeholders had been encouraging communities to fight against oppressive traditions, which are the major hindrance of women development.
Regarding education, Simba said the government had made strides in encouraging all children to attend school.
"We opened primary and secondary schools in most villages to enable children to have access to education closer to their homes," said the minister.

Back in April, Kitty Westin and I had the pleasure of joining a panel with the University of Wisconsin Oshkosh on eating disorder recovery. It was done via Google Hangout, so the full discussion we had with the audience is archived.
It just so happens that the panel was scheduled on the same day as the reception for the Spring Eating Disorders Coalition Lobby Day. At first, Kitty and I were worried we wouldn't be able to do it, but instead we had the pleasure of hanging out in person and crowding around my laptop. The visual quality isn't the greatest, but the audio is fine. Kitty has some amazing things to share and I strongly encourage you to take the time to watch or listen!
A little about Kitty:
Kitty Westin is the founder and former President of the Anna Westin Foundation which is now known as The Emily Program Foundation. The Anna Westin Foundation was started by Anna's family after Anna died of anorexia in 2000. Kitty is on the board of The Emily Program Foundation, the Eating Disorders Coalition for Research, Policy & Action, and she is a former member of the Minnesota Governors Advisory Counsel on Mental Heath, the Minnesota Mental Health Legislative Network and numerous other boards and counsels.
Since Anna's death Kitty has spoken to millions of people about eating disorders through personal appearances and the media.

John Stossel | Confessions of a Media Maverick
Recorded: Friday, January 30, 2004
When pioneering television journalist John Stossel joined ABC-TV's "20/20" in 1981, his peers and an admiring public hailed him as a crusading consumer reporter. His hard-hitting, in-your-face exposes of con artists and corporate liars and crooks won him 19 Emmys and an avid following. But, could the use of government power and the Nanny State be the biggest scam of all?
In his new book, Give Me a Break, Stossel takes on a herd of sacred cows and examines how in the name of the "public interest," ambitious politicians and bureaucrats, intellectually lazy and opportunistic reporters, scaremongers, and predatory lawyers make life worse, especially for those most disadvantaged.
In this event John Stossel explained how his investigations of government waste, fraud and abuse; welfare for the rich; victimless crimes; self-serving interest groups; and sensationalist-media hyping (while ignoring real risks) reveal the crucial need to protect the civil and economic liberties of all people.
John Stossel, author of Give Me a Break. is co-anchor of ABC's "20/20." He also hosts ABC's "John Stossel Specials" for ABC television and radio, and ABCNews.com. In addition to having received 19 Emmy Awards, he has been honored five times for excellence in consumer reporting by the National Press Club. Among his other awards are the George Polk Award for Outstanding Local Reporting and the George Foster Peabody Award.
David J. Theroux is Founder and President of the Independent Institute.

A political analyst, William Butler Yeats, once said, "Do not wait to strike till the iron is hot; but make it hot by striking." This is exactly what Kigoma North lawmaker, Zitto Zuberi Kabwe and his party have done. They didn't wait to strike till the iron was hot, but made it hot by striking it, and here we are today witnessing the forced resignation of eight cabinet ministers.
Their colleagues from the ruling party waited till the iron was hot and their dilly-dallying has given Kabwe and his party political mileage, the very same way it happened in 2007 when the ruling party's lawmakers ganged up against the very same Kigoma North legislator.
Last year, in dealing with the David Jairo saga, it was Kabwe who led the battle before CCM hardliners rallied behind him and the result was the sacking of the former permanent secretary. The Richmond scam and details about the Bank of Tanzania's External Payments Arrears account heist were first revealed by the opposition legislator, led by Dr. Willibrod Slaa, before CCM's legislators hijacked the battle.
This week again, Kabwe stole the show when he decided to go after Prime Minister Mizengo Pinda. To prove that he was serious, the following day he managed to gather a total of 68 signatures. It is safe to assume that, come tomorrow when the motion of no confidence in the Prime Minister Pinda would have been moved, he would have gathered 70 signatures needed to table the motion.
Also, because the CCM lawmakers were blind or may not have known the danger lying ahead, hijacked Kabwe's battle believing that,in so doing they had outsmarted him. But the truth of the matter is that Kabwe had given them enough rope with which to hang themselves.
Today, CCM legislators have hanged themselves while Kabwe and Chadema have scored a strong political victory, including winning the confidence of Tanzanians. It's a game well played by Kabwe and his party on behalf of Tanzanians, who are tired of poor leadership and corruption. If finally the eight cabinet ministers' resignation will be accepted by the appointing authority, we shall accord this victory to Kabwe and his party.
CCM will gain nothing out of this battle because it wasn't their battle to begin with; they just hijacked it or were given enough rope by the very same legislators they booed last year. To a divided CCM, this could possibly be the beginning of the end because it can't withstand the political storms from young and brilliant politicians from the opposition, Chadema.
CCM legislators might congratulate themselves for hijacking the battle, and finally forcing eight cabinet ministers to quit, but the truth is that it's Chadema that wins politically by gaining the trust of Tanzanians. However, within CCM this has very little to do with the battle to combat corruption. It is rather the product of their internal divisions and struggle for power that has been rocking the party for some years now.
These cracks were brought about by one word: corruption. The word was Dr Slaa's and his party's war cry, especially when he unveiled the list of shame at Mwembe Yanga in Dar es Salaam in 2007.
During that time CCM legislators either ignored Slaa or called him a liar, but when they established that, the Chadema tough leader was gaining popularity while they were losing credibility before the public, they hijacked the Richmond and EPA scams.
The result was what President Kikwete described as 'a political storm' because then sitting Prime Minister Edward Lowassa and two cabinet ministers were forced to resign. The following day the entire cabinet was dissolved, but a new chapter of divisions and the politics of witch-hunting had been put in top gear.
Today CCM remains weak because it has never recovered from the Richmond hangover. For those who like democracy and accountability, the credit will always go to Kabwe and his party for putting CCM under constant pressure to the extent of it unwittingly being in a position to hang itself.

I decided to become a Tour Director in order to see the world-and lose weight. Unfortunately, the latter is impossible in Slovenia and Croatia, because the food is incredible. Still, it was worth a try! Since those early years I've discovered that the reality of travel is better than I ever imagined. Every day is different, and there is always something new to see and learn.
The following UNESCO World Heritage Sites can be seen or visited on the Jewels of Slovenia & Croatia:
