Approximately 25% of patients with breast cancer have tumors that overexpress HER2/neu.[51] Trastuzumab is a humanized monoclonal antibody that binds to the HER2/neu receptor.[51] In patients previously treated with cytotoxic chemotherapy whose tumors overexpress HER2/neu, administration of trastuzumab as a single agent resulted in a response rate of 21%.[52][Level of evidence: 3iiiDiv] In a prospective trial, patients with metastatic disease were randomly assigned to receive either chemotherapy alone (doxorubicin and cyclophosphamide or paclitaxel) or the same chemotherapy and trastuzumab. Patients treated with chemotherapy plus trastuzumab had an OS advantage as compared with those receiving chemotherapy alone (25.1 months vs. 20.3 months, P = .05).[53][Level of evidence: 1iiA] When combined with doxorubicin, trastuzumab is associated with significant cardiac toxicity.[54] Consequently, patients with metastatic breast cancer with substantial overexpression of HER2/neu are candidates for treatment with the combination of trastuzumab and paclitaxel or for clinical studies of trastuzumab combined with taxanes and other chemotherapeutic agents.[55]
Clinical trials comparing multiagent chemotherapy plus trastuzumab versus single-agent chemotherapy have yielded conflicting results. In one randomized study of patients with metastatic breast cancer treated with trastuzumab, paclitaxel, and carboplatin, patients tolerated the combination well and had a longer time-to-progression, compared with trastuzumab and paclitaxel alone.[56][Level of evidence: 1iDiii] However, a phase III Breast Cancer International Research Group (BCIRG) trial (BCIRG-007 [NCT00047255]) comparing carboplatin and docetaxel plus trastuzumab versus docetaxel plus trastuzumab as first-line chemotherapy for metastatic HER2-overexpressing breast cancer showed no difference in OS, time to progression, or response rate.[57][Level of evidence: 1iiA] Outside of a clinical trial, standard first-line treatment for metastatic HER2-overexpressing breast cancer should consist of single-agent chemotherapy plus trastuzumab.
Lapatinib is an orally administered tyrosine kinase inhibitor of both HER2/neu and the epidermal growth factor receptor.
Lapatinib plus capecitabine
Lapatinib has shown activity in combination with capecitabine in patients who have HER2-positive metastatic breast cancer that progressed after treatment with trastuzumab. A nonblinded, randomized trial (GSK-EGF100151) compared the combination of capecitabine and lapatinib with capecitabine alone in 324 patients with locally advanced or metastatic disease that progressed after therapies that included anthracyclines, taxanes, and trastuzumab.[58] At the first planned interim analysis of the trial, a highly significant difference was found that favored the combination arm with respect to the primary study endpoint and time to progression (median time to progression 8.4 months vs. 4.4 months; HR, 0.49; 95% CI, 0.34-0.71; P < .001). There was no difference in OS (HR, 0.92; 95% CI, 0.58-1.46; P = .72).[58][Level of evidence: 1iiA] Patients on combination therapy were more likely to develop diarrhea, rash, and dyspepsia. No data on quality of life or treatment after progression are available. (Refer to the PDQ summary on Gastrointestinal Complications for more information on diarrhea.)

Exhibit: "Dolly Parton Pinball, More Than Just A Game"
STATUS: Dolly is working great and available for free play in the LJAC Gallery during open hours. High scores were reset for summer 2015. – Updated August 7, 2015
Latest Statistics: During fall semester 2014, 901 games were played. During spring semester 2015, 882 games were played. The current all-time high score is 10,089,380 set on June 29, 2015.
Title: Our Dolly Parton Pinball Machine: More Than Just a Game
Dates Showing: September 2, 2013 through the present
Description: Built around an actual, working 1979 Dolly Parton pinball machine, this exhibition explores Appalachian identity and representation. During the mid-1970s, Bally, a leading pinball machine maker, had a successful series of machines based on celebrities including singer Elton John, daredevil Evel Knievel, hockey star Bobby Orr, and the rock group KISS. Bally Executive Tom Nieman wanted a machine he could sell to country & western bars. In 1978, Bally approached Appalachian-born country music star Dolly Parton to license her persona for a pinball machine. Parton agreed, a contract was signed, and design work began. This kicked off an interesting process of determining how Parton would be portrayed in the artwork on the machine.
Click here to visit the online version of the exhibit.
Curators: College Curator Christopher Miller assisted by Student Curators Jonita Horn, Joey Shepherd, and Matt Heil. The online version also involved Student Curatorial Assistant Caroline Hughes.
Location: LJAC Gallery, Loyal Jones Appalachian Center, Stephenson Hall, Berea College, 211 N. Main Street, Berea, Kentucky

New Babies & Family Names
My cousin just had twins (yay!) this past Sunday and had made us all wait to find out the names. However, when they were finally revealed, I have to say that I wasn't the least bit surprised. My cousin had trouble getting pregnant so their dogs (Ty, Penny, and Bailey) more or less became their children. Well, Bailey passed away a few months ago from cancer so when it came time to name the twins, Bailey got an honorable mention. As did Ty.
It's a little bit unusual, even if the names are fairly traditional.
Did you name your children after someone (even a pet!) that you know/knew? Would you?

I have an 8spd rear cassette that is tight enough for a short cage rear derailleur. I currently have a long cage xt rear derailleur and no front derailleur - just a 52 tooth ring. periodically (and annoyingly) the chain will jump off the ring to the outside - usually on a downshift to the 11tooth cog. Nevermind other available fixes (i.e. adding a fd, getting a tensioner or other device specifically for this problem) I just want to know if a short cage derailleur would help. Seems like there would be less wiggle to the jiggle during shifting with a short cage der, but that is based on nothing but rank speculation on my part. I have an unused ultegra short cage derailleur sitting on my bench, but don't want to waste my time swapping if it's not gonna help.
thanks in advance for your thoughts.

SUPPLEMENTAL UPDATE 11/2/2015 – Flagship Merchant Services (AKA: iPayment) has repeatedly made hostile attempts to force the removal of this review. These have included intimidation through bullying and threats of litigation under false pretenses as well as an illegitimate DMCA claim filed with our host, which was rejected on the grounds that it was a "guise" to suppress fair use of a trademark. It is our opinion that such actions reveal the depths at which Flagship's executives will stoop in an attempt to suppress constitutionally protected free speech that is critical of their business practices. We view these actions as not only highly unethical, but as a demonstration of their unwillingness to correct the problems that cause merchant complaints and, instead, a preference for aggressive strong-arm retribution tactics. If you have been a victim of such threats or bullying, please detail your experience in the comment section below.
Flagship Merchant Services (cardservicesales.com & flagshipmerchantservices.com) is a large merchant account sales organization based out of Charlestown, Massachusetts. The company was founded in 2001 and appears to have grown rapidly in the last 10 years. Flagship is a reseller of processing services primarily provided by First Data and iPayment but appears to handle the customer service of its accounts in-house. Flagship's website and online advertising boasts that it has been a top-rated credit card processor on TopTenReviews.com for eight consecutive years, but it is unclear at this time how a business qualifies for that honor.
Flagship's Acquiring Bank is Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. of Walnut Creek, California. Sean McEvoy is the company's director of operations, while its director of sales is Mark D'Ambrosio.
|Flagship Products Products and Services
|Industries Served
Sales & Marketing | C
|Key Points – Sales & Marketing
|Uses independent resellers?
|Promotes deceptive rate quotes?
|Discloses all important terms?
This reviewer located one use of deceptive marketing by Flagship in which the company advertised on its homepage and in Google Adsense ads that "rates start at 0.38% plus $0.19 per transaction." This rate quote is misleading because it only applies to a particular transaction type, but the majority of a merchant's transactions will run at much higher rates. Flagship fails to mention that the merchant will experience other rates and fees in addition to the unrealistically low rate quote. As you can imagine, these types of quotes can lead to confusion. Flagship has removed this specific rate quote from its homepage since our last update, but merchants may still encounter similar "teaser" quotes when speaking directly with Flagship representatives.
Flagship appears to primarily use inside sales staff to market its services instead of using outside independent sales agents. Inside sales personnel are the preferred marketing strategy for this reviewer because the sales tactics of these agents can be better controlled. This is of course assuming that the company doesn't encourage deceptive sales practices, which may be an issue with Flagship due to numerous complaints indicating that agents failed to fully disclose important fees and contract terms (covered in more detail below). On the surface, Flagship does not appear to engage in any egregiously deceptive practices at this time. However, the consistent merchant complaints about undisclosed fees have lowered its score to an average grade of "C" in this section.
Costs & Contract| B
|Key Points – Costs & Contract Terms
|Swiped rate:
|Keyed-in rate:
|Termination fee:
|PCI compliance fee:
|$99 per year
|Equipment lease:
Rates and fees of Flagship merchant accounts may vary for a variety of reasons including a merchant's business type, processing volume, and the agent setting up the account. In most cases, the company offers month-to-month contracts with no cancellation fees but charges an annual PCI Compliance fee of around $99 in addition to several other monthly fees, which seem to vary in name and amount. Merchants are encouraged to carefully read and understand Flagship's merchant account agreement prior to signup, as many of the complaints about the company describe undisclosed fees or higher-than-expected rates. Flagship is capable of offering interchange-plus pricing, but it does not actively promote it. Be sure to read "Fee Sweep" to understand merchant account fees and how to negotiate them in your favor.
Complaints & Service | C-
|Key Points – Complaints & Service
|Total complaints:
|Live customer support?
|Most common complaint:
|Hidden fees
For a provider of Flagship's size and time in business, there are a moderate number of Flagship Merchant Services negative reviews filed in the usual forums, as well as over 80 in our comment section below. Many of the complaints follow a common theme, which is the reason Flagship is receiving a low rating in this section. Of the reports, numerous merchants complain of receiving higher than quoted fees after signing up, sudden increases in fees without notification, hidden/undisclosed fees, and difficulty cancelling service. One complaint, found here, outlines a typical negative experience: "When we signed uo with this nightmare of a company, they advertised that they were BBB accredited and A rated. Once we started having issues with them I checked BBB and they were not even accredited! […] They charged my account 7 times more than what they said they would charge me per month and when I called they said that they can only credit my account if I do not cancle my service."
These types of complaints usually indicate systemic problems in which sales agents often fail to disclose fees and instead rely on the merchant to find them within the contract. It can also be an indication of problems with the billing system. Either way, Flagship can improve its rating in this section by revising its sales methods so as to prevent future complaints of this nature.

BBB Report | D*
|Key Points – BBB Report
As of this update, the Better Business Bureau is reporting that Flagship has been accredited since May 2015 and is assigning the company a grade of "A-." Flagship has received 147 BBB complaints filed in the last 36 months and 70 negative informal reviews. Of the 147 complaints, 90 are regarding billing and collection disputes, 26 with service problems, and 28 with advertising and sales issues. Flagship has resolved 64 of the complaints to the merchant's satisfaction. The remaining complaints either were resolved to the dissatisfaction of the merchant or did not receive a final response from the merchant.
At the time of our last update, the BBB had posted a notice containing the following information:
According to BBB files this business has a pattern of complaint concerning non disclosure of "required" charges. Specifically for PCI*. Consumers state that the business charges for PCI compliance or Noncompliance but that was not disclosed in the original agreement made.Consumers state that the business claims notification was sent however consumers claim this is an additional charge not disclosed to them. Consumers indicate that they want refund or cancellation of service. BBB sent a written notice on 7/28/14 and 9/8/14 to identifying the potential pattern of complaint with a request for a business response. As of 10/14/14 the business did not respond to BBB's request.
*The Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS) is a proprietary information security standard for organizations that handle cardholder information for the major debit credit prepaid, e-purse ATM, and POS cards
This notice has been removed from the company's BBB profile since our last update. In that time, Flagship has also paid the BBB to join its accreditation program and seen its grade rise from a "C" to an "A-" despite an increase in total complaints. Given the company's increase in complaints and negative reviews since our last update, we have adjusted the BBB's rating to a "D."

Flagship Merchant Services Review
Rated out of 5 Stars
Reviewed by Phillip Parker
Reviewed on 2016-01-13
Flagship's grade has remained the same since our last update, due mostly to widespread reports of deceptive sales practices and excessive billing. However, the company does offer month-to-month agreements, which makes it attractive for many businesses. Flagship can improve its rating in this review by eliminating future merchant complaints about billing, hidden fees, and difficulties cancelling service.

With snow and ice abounding in Missoula, it would be so nice to ride a fat bike around, to officially participate in Fat Bike February. But the finances for a rad, new bike are just not in the cards this year. (And truth be told, if I buy one bike this year, it'll probably be this one.)

Have you ever noticed how different animals eat? It's interesting if you think about it. For example, a cow simply plants its face in its food and chews away. How about an alligator? What do you think it's like when an alligator opens its big jaws and just chomps away? That must make quite a mess. How about a lizard? It slithers along and then suddenly attacks its prey.

Vikings 34, Cowgirls 3: My Top 10 Observations
10. Does this feel like 1991 to anyone else? An empowering playoff win, followed by an embarrassing blowout playoff road loss, leading to disappointment but not necessarily discouragement? That year it was Detroit, 38-6. This year it is Minnesota, 34-3. In '92 the Cowboys won the Super Bowl. In '10 ...
9. Congrats, Roy Williams. You punctuated an absolute waste of a season by missing the team plane to Minnesota. Well, didn't you? What? You were there? Prove it.
8. How bad is the 31-point loss in the post-season? Would you believe it's the Cowboys' second-worst playoff loss ever, behind only the aforementioned 32-point shellacking in Detroit on Jan. 5, 1992.
7. When Gerald Sensabaugh lost sight of the ball - I don't think he's found it yet - and gave up the 47-yard touchdown to Sidney Rice for Vikings 7, Cowboys 0, it was the first points allowed by Dallas' defense in the first quarter of a road game all season. The defense picked a bad time to have its worst game.

6. Toldja kicker Shaun Suisham would cost the Cowboys a game at some point. The Vikings were clearly the better team, but Suisham's two wide left field goals changed the tenor of the whole game.
5. Keith Brooking, stop it. Claiming the Vikings are "classless" for Brett Favre's late touchdown pass just makes you and your team look like crybabies. If you don't want them to score, stop 'em. Maybe if you made a play between the lines instead of just shooting your wad in that theatrical "We're gonna hit 'em in the mouth!" pre-game schtick, the Vikings wouldn't have embarrassed you in the first place. But I don't blame the Vikings for scoring on their last drive. Maybe they're going to run the same play against the New Orleans Saints next week.
4. Most disappointing play of the game was Tony Romo's double-pump interception. You can live with bad throws, but not bad decisions. That was the old Romo, panicking and desperately trying to make a play where no play was there to be made. Thought he'd matured past that, but I guess not. It was a sad regression to a troubling trait.
3. See, the thing that makes Wade Phillips a Stumbledoofus isn't just the fact that he didn't go for 4th-and-1 at Minnesota's 30 on Dallas' second drive. It's the fact that after the game when he attempted to explain his lack of gonads he had no idea it was 4th-and-1. "Well, it wasn't fourth and one," Phillips said. Yes, it was. Inexcusable.
2. I called Vikings 23, Cowboys 21. But I'm hardly gloating. Sad to see it end. I'd rather be happy than right, know what I mean? And, as hard as it is to root against a team with a fan as cool as Prince, two of my soul-sapping kryptonites in this world are Brett Favre and American Idol. Imagine my disgust at watching him celebrate in the post-game locker room to Pants on the Ground. Voh. Mit.
1. I've called Wade Phillips "Dead Man Coaching" all season, but I think - think, I say - he did enough this year to earn another season as head coach. Right? That said, the combined score of the Cowboys' last two season-ending games is a staggeringly hideous 78-9. You convinced he's the right guy to lead the Cowboys two more levels, to a Super Bowl?

SB 1070 would ban 'lawsuit lending'
It's not often that Texans point out when Oklahoma beats them (especially in football), but I'd like to congratulate the Oklahoma Legislature for beating Texas to the punch in considering legislation to ban lawsuit lending. In this shady legal practice, lenders offer to pay plaintiffs up front in the expectation that the plaintiffs will get a large award from their lawsuit, but their fees are often so high that consumers end up with nothing or, even worse, end up in debt even after receiving their lawsuit award or settlement.
Senate Bill 1070, if passed, would ban lawsuit lending and thus protect the poor and vulnerable on whom such lenders most often prey. This legislation has already passed the Senate and is under consideration in the House. It's a good sign for Texans that our lawmakers are looking into this issue in an interim committee this year. I encourage Oklahoma legislators to pass this measure quickly and set an example for Texas to follow in its 2013 legislative session.

An excerpt from a lecture by historian Ned Blackhawk at the Radcliffe Institute about the Sand Creek Massacre, one of the most infamous and violent moments in North American indigenous history. On a cold winter morning in 1864, approximately 700 US Civil War cavalry from Colorado and New Mexico territories attacked a band of peaceful Cheyenne and Arapaho villagers. The atrocities the soldiers committed caused national outrage.
Blackhawk was a member of the Northwestern University study committee that investigated the massacre, and particularly the role of Colorado Territorial Governor John Evans.

Obama Finally Gets His Deal … Iran Nuclear Deal Is Reached After Long Negotiations
NUKE DEAL REACHED: Barack Obama has officially sold the United States and Israel down the drain and all but guaranteed a nuclear arms race in the Middle East ...
Iran and six nations led vigorously by the United States to reach a deal at any cost has finally reached a historic accord on this morning with regards to Iran's nuclear capabilities. The members of the panel are Britain, China, France, Germany, Russia, the United States, the European Union and Iran. Aside from all the platitudes from Barack Obama and Sec. of State John Kerry touting this deal as the greatest thing since the Magna Carta, so we are supposed to trust that Iran is going to do what they say, really? When has Iran ever done what they said they would do? Sadly, this deal is a joke and will cause a nuclear arms race in the Middle East.
To check the Iranians we have to put a request into Iran for inspections and Iran has 14 days to respond. Really? Because the Iranian government and Mullahs have changed, they are such trust worthy people. Meanwhile chants continue in the streets of Iran to death to America and Israel. This was an Obama deal for a deals sake as it was too big to fail.
All we can hope is that this deal gets nixed in Congress and both House and Senators from both parties show a backbone and place US security and Middle East stability before party politics and Obama's legacy.
Iran and a group of six nations led by the United States said they had reached a historic accord on Tuesday to significantly limit Tehran's nuclear ability for more than a decade in return for lifting international oil and financial sanctions.
President Obama, in an early morning appearance at the White House that was broadcast live in Iran, began what promised to be an arduous effort to sell the deal to Congress and the American public, saying the agreement was "not built on trust. It is built on verification."
One of the last, and most contentious issues, was the question of whether and how fast an arms embargo on conventional weapons and missiles, imposed starting in 2006, would be lifted.
After days of haggling, Secretary of State John Kerry and his Iranian counterpart, Mohammad Javad Zarif, agreed that the missile restrictions would remain for eight years and that a similar ban on the purchase and sale of missiles would be removed in five years.
Those bans would be removed even sooner if the International Atomic Energy Agency is able to reach a definitive conclusion that the Iranian nuclear program is entirely peaceful, and that there was no evidence of cheating on the accord or any activity to obtain weapons covertly.
The provisions on the arms embargo are expected to dominate the coming debate in Congress on the accord.
Even before the deal was announced, critics expressed fears that Iran would use some of the billions of dollars it will receive in sanctions relief to build up its military power in the region. Iranian officials, however, have said that Iran should be treated like any other nation, and not be subjected to an arms embargo if it meets the terms of a nuclear deal.
Iran nuclear deal: historic agreement in Vienna.
John Kerry said the implementation of the deal is more important than the text. "I'm not going to stand here and tell you every is going to work without a hitch," he told reporters.
Iranian negotiators have repeatedly reassured the US that they have a full mandate from President Rouhani and the Iran's supreme leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, the US secretary of state said.
In answer to his final question he said: "We have put in ample mechanisms in respect to compliance. So I feel very confident about our ability to protect our interests."

Daily Commentary – Monday, March 30, 2015 – Germanwings Captain Patrick Sondheimer Screamed 'Open the Goddamn Door!'
- In a frantic effort by Germanwings Captain Patrick Sondheimer to try and break open the cockpit door even using a crowbar, screaming 'Open the Goddamn Door!'

Co-Pilot Andreas Lubitzn Repeated Made Efforts to Get Captain Patrick Sondheimer to Leave the Cockpit to Crash Plane … Sondheimer Heard Shouting "Open the Goddamn Door!"
According to transcripts of the black box voice recorder, the Co-captain Andreas Lubitzn, the individual who purposely crashed Germanwings Flight 9525 killing all aboard, Lubitzn made multiple attempts to get Captain Patrick Sondheimer to leave the cockpit. We know that Andreas Lubitzn had been given doctors notes that stating that he was too ill to work. As we know now that illness was mental illness. However, for some one who was deemed crazy, this individual seemingly planned what he was going to do and crazy like a fox got the pilot to leave the cockpit so that he could complete his plan to go out with a bang. As the ill-fated plane descended closer and closer the the ground, Captain Sondheimer can be heard shouting for the last time shouting to Andreas Lubitzn, "Open the Goddamn door!"
Full transcripts of the black box voice recorder recovered from Flight 9525 revealed for the first time the apparently premeditated nature of Andreas Lubitz's actions, which prosecutors say deliberately killed himself and 149 other people on the Airbus A320.
According to the Sunday edition of the German newspaper Bild, Lubitz twice urged captain Patrick Sondheimer to go to the toilet in the first 20 minutes of the flight from Barcelona to Dusseldorf.
When the captain eventually left the cockpit, the co-pilot manually set the door to "lock" and changed the autopilot from 38,000ft to 100ft, bringing the plane crashing down into the French Alps after a gradual descent.
During the plane's ascent, Lubitz can be heard on the voice recording telling his captain he can go to the toilet any time and reminding him he didn't do so during their prolonged stop in Barcelona, according to a translation of Bild's report in the Mail on Sunday.
As the plane reaches cruising height at 10.27am, Sondheimer can be heard telling his co-pilot to start preparing for landing in Dusseldorf – to which Lubitz reportedly responded in a vague and "laconic" manner and used words like "hopefully" and "we'll see".
After landing checks, Lubitz reportedly tells Sondheimer: "You can go now." Two minutes later, the captain left the cockpit for the last time, telling his colleague: "You can take over."
Further details were also reported by Bild about the final words used by Sondheimer as he desperately tried to gain access to the locked flight deck.
With the plane descending and an automatic alarm signal sounding, the captain can be heard shouting: "For God's sake, open the door!"
At 10.35am a "loud metallic banging against the door" is heard, which Bild reported is more likely to be from a crowbar rather than the plane's only axe – located next to Lubitz in the cockpit.
Less than two minutes later a new automatic alert sounds, warning: "Ground! Pull up! Pull up!"
Sondheimer can be heard shouting for the last time: "Open the goddamn door!"
At 10.40am the plane hit the side of the mountain. At no point during the descent can Lubitz be heard speaking, and prosecutors described his breathing as "normal".

Co-Pilot Andreas Lubitzn in Germanwings Crash Hid Medical Condition From Employer … Authorities Find Torn Up Doctors' Notes Stating He Was Too Ill to Work, Including Day of the Plane Crash
Search of Andreas Lubitzn's home finds doctor's notes that he was too ill to work …
The NY Times is reporting that Andreas Lubitzn, the co-pilot who deliberately crashed Germanwings flight 9525 into the French Alps on Tuesday killing all aboard, had been given a mental health diagnosis but kept the condition hidden from his employer. Prosecutors said on Friday that among the items found at Mr. Lubitz's home were several doctors' notes stating that he was too ill to work, including on the day of the crash; one of the notes had been torn up.
Isn't this special. We have an individual who received a doctor's note that says he is too ill to work; however, the employer does not get the same.
Investigators probe Germanwings co-pilot Andreas Lubitz's background
Andreas Lubitz, the pilot who flew a Germanwings jetliner into the French Alps on Tuesday, had been given a mental health diagnosis but kept the condition hidden from his employer, the authorities said Friday.
A psychiatric diagnosis might explain why Mr. Lubitz, a 27-year-old German, did not disclose his full medical record to Germanwings and its parent company, Lufthansa. Certain diagnoses are grounds for a pilot's license to be revoked.
Prosecutors said on Friday that among the items found at Mr. Lubitz's home were several doctors' notes stating that he was too ill to work, including on the day of the crash; one of the notes had been torn up. These documents "support the preliminary assessment that the deceased hid his illness from his employer and colleagues," the prosecutors said in a statement.

French Prosecutor Brice Robin Says Germanwings Co-Pilot Deliberately Crashed Airbus Jet … Terrorism? (Update: [Pic] Co-Pilot Andreas Lubitz Deliberately Crashed Plane)
IT WAS NO ACCIDENT: The Germanwings Flight 4U9525 crash turns out to be a deliberate act of terrorism … Was it radical Islam or violent extremist?
A French prosecutor handling the plane crash of Germanwings Flight 4U9525 stated that the evidence from the cockpit voice recorder indicated that the co-pilot had deliberately crash ed the plane. According the the prosecutor, the co-pilot deliberately locked the captain out of the cockpit and steered the plane into its fatal descent. The co-pilot has been identified as 28 year old German Andreas Günter, the individual responsible for the deliberate airline crash. Lubitz was described as a German national. However, his motivation at this point for deliberately crashing the plane is unknown. Was he a lone wolf Islamic terrorist, was he a violent extremest, or was he crazy. Now the question becomes, why did this individual commit such a heinous act.
The chief Marseille prosecutor handling the investigation into the crash of a Germanwings jetliner said on Thursday that evidence from the cockpit voice recorder indicated that the co-pilot had deliberately locked the captain out of the cockpit and steered the plane into its fatal descent.
"At this moment, in light of investigation, the interpretation we can give at this time is that the co-pilot through voluntary abstention refused to open the door of the cockpit to the commander, and activated the button that commands the loss of altitude," the prosecutor, Brice Robin, said.
He said it appeared that the co-pilot's intention had been "to destroy the aircraft." He said that the voice recorder showed that the co-pilot had been breathing until before the moment of impact, suggesting that he was conscious and deliberate in his actions. He said that his inquiry had shown that the crash was intentional.
More from the prosecutor discussing what took place prior to the plane crash killing all aboard.
The prosecutor said that the authorities had a full transcript of the final 30 minutes of the voice recorder.
"During the first 20 minutes, the pilots talk normally," he said, saying they spoke in a "cheerful" and "courteous" way. "There is nothing abnormal happening," he said.
The prosecutor said the transcript showed that the captain was preparing a briefing for landing in Düsseldorf. The co-pilot's answer, the prosecutor said, was "laconic."
The commanding pilot then asked the co-pilot to take over, and the noise of a seat backing up and a door closing could be heard.
"At this stage, the co-pilot is in control, alone," the prosecutor said. "It is when he is alone that the co-pilot manipulates the flight monitoring system to activate the decent of the plane." The prosecutor said that this action could only have been "voluntary."
"You can hear the commanding pilot ask for access to the cockpit several times," the prosecutor said. "He identifies himself, but the co-pilot does not provide any answer."
"You can hear human breathing in the cockpit up until the moment of impact," the prosecutor said. "The pilot was therefore alive."

UPDATE I: Germanwings tragedy was no accident.
French prosecutor Brice Robin said in Marseille on Thursday that the co-pilot, Andreas Lubitz, requested control of the aircraft about 20 minutes into the flight. The pilot then left the cockpit, leaving the co-pilot in full control of the plane.
Lubitz manually and "intentionally" set the plane on the descent that drove it into the mountainside in the southern French Alps. It was the co-pilot's "intention to destroy this plane," Robin said.
Robin confirmed a report by The New York Times that the pilot tried aggressively to get back into the cockpit, but was denied access.
The prosecutor said the pilot was heard pleading with the co-pilot over a telephone intercom system from the cabin for access, but that he got no answer from the co-pilot.

Germanwings Flight 4U9525 Pilot Was Locked Out of Cockpit Before Horrific Crash in French Alps
The NY Times is reporting that the pilot was locked out of the cockpit at the time of the Germanwings Flight 4U9525 crashed in the French Alps killing all aboard. According to the black box flight recorder, only the co-pilot was in the cockpit. As the pilot knocked on the door and then tried to smash the cockpit door down, there was no response from the co-pilot.
As officials struggled Wednesday to explain why a jet with 150 people on board crashed amid a relatively clear sky, an investigator said evidence from a cockpit voice recorder indicated one pilot left the cockpit before the plane's descent and was unable to get back in.
A senior military official involved in the investigation described "very smooth, very cool" conversation between the pilots during the early part of the flight from Barcelona, Spain, to Düsseldorf, Germany. Then the audio indicated that one of the pilots left the cockpit and could not re-enter.
"The guy outside is knocking lightly on the door, and there is no answer," the investigator said. "And then he hits the door stronger, and no answer. There is never an answer."
He said, "You can hear he is trying to smash the door down."

The Airbus A320, operated by the budget airline Germanwings, was en route from Barcelona to Dusseldorf when it vanished from radar screens at 09.39 local time.
Flight GWI18G came down near Prads-Haute-Bléone, between Digne-les-Bains and Barcelonnette, north-west of Monaco. It was flying at just 6,800ft at the time and Bernard Cazeneuve, the French interior minister, said debris had been found at an altitute of 6,500ft.
A distress signal, thought to have been sent by aircraft's automatically-activated crash position indicator, was picked up at 10.47 local time, showing that the aircraft was "at 5,000ft in an abnormal situation", said Alain Vidalies, the French transport minister.
UPDATE IV: Why did 9525 plummet from 40,000ft?
The 24 year old plane, built by the French Airbus consortium, transmitted a distress signal at 9.47am local time, with one unconfirmed report saying it was sent out at 6,800 feet.
The distress call, typically transmitted in a general aircraft emergency, did not give any additional information about the type of emergency.
The aircraft was flying at its normal cruising altitude of around 40,000 ft, but within 10 minutes made a staggeringly swift descent to around 6,200 feet.
This points to a major problem with the aircraft, and suggests the two pilots were struggling to control the plummeting aircraft.
This graph from FlightRadar24 shows how the plane lost altitude and speed prior to disappearing from the radar.
UPDATE V: Bodies are being taken to a local village gym, it is being used as a temporary morgue as bodies are being recovered.
UPDATE VI: The crash site is a two and a half hour walk from the nearest settlement, and is inaccessible by land vehicles. Pics from rescue helicopter.
UPDATE VII: French officials said a police helicopter had located the crash site and first items of debris near the small town of Barcelonnette in the Alpes-de-Hautes-Provences.
UPDATE VIII - Total of 150 people on board Germanwings flight
Germanwings has confirmed the number of people on board as 150.
This includes 144 passengers and six cabin crew.

German Newspaper The Hamburger Morgenpost (MOPO) Firebombed That Reprinted Charlie Hebdo Cartoons
German newspaper, The Hamburger Morgen Post, was firebombed overnight as police state that a "burning object" and rocks were thrown through a window. The MOPO as it is locally known had reprinted cartoons of the Prophet Mohammed from Charlie Hebdo. The newspaper featured three Charlie Hebdo cartoons of the prophet Mohammed on its front page on Thursday, together with the headline "This much freedom must be possible!" No one was injured in the fire at the editorial offices of the Hamburger Morgenpost.
Berlin (AFP) – A German tabloid that reprinted cartoons from the French satirical paper Charlie Hebdo lampooning the Prophet Mohammed was targeted in firebombing Sunday, police said.
With security services on high alert after a killing spree in Paris by Islamic extremists, police in the northern German port city of Hamburg said no one was injured in the blaze at the headquarters of the regional daily Hamburger Morgenpost, which caused only slight damage.
"Rocks and then a burning object were thrown through the window," a police spokesman told AFP.
"Two rooms on lower floors were damaged but the fire was put out quickly."
The Hamburger Morgenpost, known locally as the MOPO, had splashed the Charlie Hebdo cartoons on its front page after the massacre at the Paris publication, running the headline "This much freedom must be possible!"
Police said the attack had occurred at about 0120 GMT and that two young men seen acting suspiciously near the scene were detained. State security has opened an investigation, a spokesman added.

25th Year Anniversary of the Fall of the Berlin Wall … Nov. 9, 1989
It is hard to believe it has been 25 years since the fall of the Berlin Wall …
Nov. 9, 1989, 25 years later and it seems like yesterday I can remember watching the news of the German people hammering, chiseling and tearing down the Berlin Wall, symbolizing the freedom of the East German people and the defeat of Communism. Thousands of East Berliners poured into West Berlin and freedom. It was a moment in history that you remember where you were when you saw the images of the fall of Communism and the rise of freedom. It is a forever remembered moment in history for the world, not just Germany. The people celebrated in the streets, as Germans shed their hammers and sickles for hammers and chisels and brought the wall down forever.
White balloons spanning a stretch of the former death strip floated over hundreds of thousands of revelers in the German capital on Sunday, culminating a day of celebrations to mark 25 years since the fall of the Berlin Wall.
More than 300,000 people gathered in Berlin to watch a light installation of 8,000 helium balloons tracing a nine-mile stretch be released into the night sky, police said. The illuminated balloons snaked past historic locations such as Checkpoint Charlie as part of a celebration that included music and fireworks at the city's Brandenburg Gate—a location once circumvented by the wall.
Speaking earlier in the day, German Chancellor Angela Merkel called the fall of the Berlin Wall proof that dreams could come true during a ceremony to mark the event's 25th anniversary. She added that its collapse offered hope to regions where "freedom and human rights are threatened or even trampled on."
For days, celebrations throughout Germany have been commemorating the opening of the East German border on Nov. 9, 1989. The breaching of the border heralded the collapse of the Communist system and led to German reunification less than a year later.
The Iconic Photo of the Fall of the Berlin Wall
National Geographic on the Berlin Wall, pretty good documentary.
The Guardian: A city undivided: the fall of the Berlin Wall commemorated 25 years on.
This year's commemoration of the fall of the Iron Curtain may also feel more poignant because there is a palpable sense that peace in Europe in 2014 is more fragile than it was at the 20th anniversary in 2009.
In her speech at the wall memorial on Bernauer Strasse on Saturday afternoon, Germany's chancellor, Angela Merkel, had explicitly emphasized the geopolitical resonances of the event, instead of indulging in personal reminiscences.
"We have the strength to shape things, to turn things from bad to good, that is the message of the fall of the wall," she said. "These days, that message is directed at Ukraine, Syria, Iraq and many, many other regions in the world."
Let us never forget what real leadership looks like. Where US President Ronald Wilson Reagan not only went to Berlin, Germany on June 12, 1987 and gave his famous speech when he uttered those famous words that would eventually come true … "Mr. Gorbachev, Tear Down This Wall," but also helped bring about the fall of Communism. Wow, imagine that, a president with a spine and resolve to effectuate real change that brought liberty to millions, not one apologizing for America's actions. A president that looked to unify people, not divide them. A president that looked to end Communism, not partake in it. God bless Ronald Reagan. These days we can only say, what a novel concept.
President Ronald Reagan – Speech at the Brandenburg Gate – West Berlin, Germany – June 12, 1987:
Chancellor Kohl, Governing Mayor Diepgen, ladies and gentlemen: Twenty-four years ago, President John F. Kennedy visited Berlin, speaking to the people of this city and the world at the City Hall. Well, since then two other presidents have come, each in his turn, to Berlin. And today I, myself, make my second visit to your city.
We come to Berlin, we American presidents, because it's our duty to speak, in this place, of freedom. But I must confess, we're drawn here by other things as well: by the feeling of history in this city, more than 500 years older than our own nation; by the beauty of the Grunewald and the Tiergarten; most of all, by your courage and determination. Perhaps the composer Paul Lincke understood something about American presidents. You see, like so many presidents before me, I come here today because wherever I go, whatever I do: Ich hab noch einen Koffer in Berlin. [I still have a suitcase in Berlin.]
In the 1950s, Khrushchev predicted: "We will bury you." But in the West today, we see a free world that has achieved a level of prosperity and well-being unprecedented in all human history. In the Communist world, we see failure, technological backwardness, declining standards of health, even want of the most basic kind–too little food. Even today, the Soviet Union still cannot feed itself. After these four decades, then, there stands before the entire world one great and inescapable conclusion: Freedom leads to prosperity. Freedom replaces the ancient hatreds among the nations with comity and peace. Freedom is the victor.
And now the Soviets themselves may, in a limited way, be coming to understand the importance of freedom. We hear much from Moscow about a new policy of reform and openness. Some political prisoners have been released. Certain foreign news broadcasts are no longer being jammed. Some economic enterprises have been permitted to operate with greater freedom from state control.
Are these the beginnings of profound changes in the Soviet state? Or are they token gestures, intended to raise false hopes in the West, or to strengthen the Soviet system without changing it? We welcome change and openness; for we believe that freedom and security go together, that the advance of human liberty can only strengthen the cause of world peace. There is one sign the Soviets can make that would be unmistakable, that would advance dramatically the cause of freedom and peace.
General Secretary Gorbachev, if you seek peace, if you seek prosperity for the Soviet Union and Eastern Europe, if you seek liberalization: Come here to this gate! Mr. Gorbachev, open this gate! Mr. Gorbachev, tear down this wall!

CPAC And The Religious Right Kiss And Make Up
A few weeks back we noted that, after several years of growing antagonism between the Religious Right and the organizers of the annual CPAC conference, it appeared as if the relationship between the two sides was on the mend with the announcement that Mike Huckabee would be a keynote speaker at next year's event.
Now CBN's David Brody is reporting that the Family Research Council's Tony Perkins, who had publicly boycotted the event in the past, will also be speaking at the conference and that the gay conservative group GOProud will not be participating:
The Brody File has learned that Family Research Council President Tony Perkins will speak at CPAC's 2012 conference. FRC, one of the most influential social conservative public policy organizations in the country will also be one of the co-sponsors of the event. FRC, along with other notable social conservative leaders and organizations boycotted CPAC (Conservative Political Action Conference) last year over concerns that conference leaders had strayed away from conservative principles by opening up the affair to groups who were not true to conservative principles. One of those groups, GOProud championed gay rights. They will NOT be at CPAC this year.
[ACU chairman Al] Cardenas says the following about the Perkins announcement: "Tony Perkins is one of the conservative movement's key advocates on faith, family and freedom issues in the public policy arena and court of public opinion. Many Americans of faith across the country have looked to his leadership as the Obama Administration continues its war on our traditional values."
Tony Perkins tells The Brody File the following: "Like restaurants, political organizations can win back customers under new management. Under CPAC's new management the organization is committed to unifying the core of the conservative movement rather than dividing it and I am eager to help in this effort."
