Police Spying Charges Prompt Los Angeles Inquiry
By SETH MYDANS,
Published: July 11, 1992
LOS ANGELES, July 10— In his first strong step as Los Angeles Police Chief, Willie L. Williams said today that he had sealed the offices of a departmental intelligence unit and opened an investigation into accusations that it had spied for years on local politicians and celebrities.
Just 10 days after taking office with a pledge to reform the department, Chief Williams said uniformed guards would be stationed outside the offices of the unit, the Organized Crime Intelligence Division, while an investigation of its operations was under way.
"This was done with no direct knowledge or implication that anyone currently working in the Organized Crime Intelligence Division had committed any type of violation," he said.
Though Chief Williams continued to refuse to make any public criticism of his predecessor, Daryl F. Gates, his swift action was a dramatic gesture of rebuke against Mr. Gates's management of the department. Book Details 'Spy Network'
For years, critics have accused Mr. Gates of spying on his opponents; in 1983, he was forced to close a different police unit that was accused of maintaining political dossiers.
Chief Williams acted against the police unit on Thursday, before the publication of "L.A. Secret Police: Inside the LAPD Elite Spy Network," published by Simon & Schuster. The book includes accusations of intelligence gathering for political purposes.
At a news conference today, the book's co-author, Mike Rothmiller, a former detective in the unit, said he had sent an advance copy of the book to Chief Williams.
Mr. Rothmiller said the 57-member detail had used electronic surveillance and undercover agents to collect files on targets like Mayor Tom Bradley, who is a political rival of Chief Gates, as well as on former Gov. Edmund G. Brown Jr. and on John Van de Kamp, a former California Attorney General, when the two men were in office. Gates Denies Accusations
In a telephone interview with Cable News Network, Mr. Gates strongly denied any improprieties by the unit and called Mr. Rothmiller a disgruntled former employee, The Associated Press reported.
Speaking of the Organized Crime Intelligence Division, Mr. Gates said, "They have a very fine record of dealing with organized crime, of dealing with the Mafia in this area." He scoffed at the accusation that celebrities and politicians had been spied upon.
He also criticized Chief Williams's quick reaction as Draconian and said, "That's the way you destroy morale very quickly."
The celebrity targets listed in the book include Robert Redford, Rock Hudson, Muhammad Ali, Barbra Streisand and Frank Sinatra, as well as Connie Chung, a television newscaster who formerly worked in Los Angeles.
Mr. Rothmiller wrote his book with Ivan G. Goldman, a veteran journalist and former editor for The Los Angeles Times. Comparing the files with those kept by J. Edgar Hoover when he headed the Federal Bureau of Investigation, Mr. Rothmiller said they had been used, among other things, to influence votes in the City Council.
When the Council blocked attempts to remove Mr. Gates from office after the videotaped police beating of Rodney G. King in March 1991, longstanding rumors about police intelligence-gathering were revived.
One of those raising that accusation was Ramona Ripston, executive director of the American Civil Liberties Union of Southern California. She said police surveillance had been used "as a form of political blackmail" against local officials.
She added, "Votes were frequently swayed because of it."
She praised Chief Williams for investigating the unit but said, "An action like this could make some of his officers unhappy." Difficult Job for Williams
Chief Williams faces the difficult task of changing a much-criticized department while trying to avoid alienating a force that in some quarters remains fiercely loyal to the former Chief.
That loyalty was partly inspired by Mr. Gates's fierce defense of his officers. A decade ago, when similar accusations of political spying were brought against another police unit, the Public Disorder Intelligence Division, he insisted that there had been no wrongdoing.
But a lawsuit against the city forced the release of documents showing that the unit had infiltrated a number of political groups and kept files on public officials. The city settled the suit in 1984, in part by agreeing to disband the unit and destroy many of its records, but many critics said that its files had been kept and that political spying had continued.
Mr. Rothmiller, 41 years old, left the Police Department in 1983 with the rank of detective after 11 years, the last five of them with the Organized Crime Intelligence Division.
He said he had been harassed and had finally quit because he had refused to take part in unsavory work, including investigating the sexual habits of Mr. Van de Kamp. He said that police officers had broken into his home at the time and that somebody had tried to kill him.
Some City Council members voiced outrage today and called for an independent investigation of the Police Department.
"We need to find out who was responsible, who gave the orders, who defined the scope of the investigation, who determined who was going to be investigated," said City Councilman Michael Woo, a longtime critic of Mr. Gates.

Tracy Revell, dba Embodied Confidence
What's stopping you from HAVING what it is you really want?
Get down to the CORE of all of you:
Body, Mind, Heart and Soul and HAVE it all for yourself!
Tracy Revell uses the words "Love your
Body. Rock your Life." as a mantra for
those who desire more Confidence
within Themselves so they can be
Powerful Presence in the world. She
empowers people to become and BE
more confident in their own skin, so
they can easily connect with those they
want to be in relationship in - whether
that is more ideal clients, their ideal
partner, or connecting to an audience. Tracy
teaches that it is only living from this space where we
shift our ability to influence others and shift our lives.
How we move in our bodies is a big indicator
of our emotional, physical and
psychological health. It's a big indicator
why your sales are down. It's a big
indicator of why you aren't attracting the
relationships you want. Tracy's work
goes beyond Body Language...When
we live life in our bodies with Feminine
Intuition, Self-Love, Grace and Knowing
instead of just in our heads and Balance
it with Masculine Focus and Action, we
experience our BEST life in a more
joyous, loving, and financially abundant
Her Journey to get where she is has
taken many roads, from learning to heal
her own body's movement and pain to
dancing in women's circles with women
twice her age to experiencing ultimate
surrender and bringing it all together to
help others...it has been a powerful
journey and one that has allowed her
the gift of helping others get this power
for themselves, in every way. Like you,
she learned that she "needed help to
unlearn what had been programmed
into my head and psyche" by parents
and life itself. Her education and skills
give her a unique skill set that can help
you identify the best course of action to
get your life into an "Embodied
Confidence" place. Learn to be the
confident, strong and Feminine woman
who gets things done for herself, her life
and her business!

Lookbook: Flower Power9:00 AM
I have been in love with flowery dresses all summer long but I didn't have one in my closet that I loved so I searched and searched but found nothing so I kinda gave up looking. I spotted this dress when I was at Forever 21 buying some jewelry as I walked up to the cashier. It wasn't even on a rack with other dresses, it was just sitting there randomly by itself. It happened to be my size so I just bought it and hoped it fit. Luckily it did! It's always funny how when you want to find something you can never find it and then when you're not even looking you find it.
Dress: Forever 21 (belt came with the dress)
Blazer: Eryn Brinie
Shoes: Miu Miu
I apologize for my lack of commenting on your blogs this week and my slow email response. We are implementing a new HR system at my company and I've been in meetings all week which has kept me away from my computer. When I get a chance to be on the computer I've been trying to keep up with our style.ish posts. Which btw, please go and check out our latest wedding. We had too many pictures that we loved so we broke up the post into two parts so make sure to check out part I and part II!

NCAA East region
Schools listed in seed order.
No. 1 Oklahoma
Location: Norman.
Enrollment: 28,954.
Nickname: Sooners.
Record: 24-6, 12-4.
Bid: Big 12 champions.
NCAA history: 27-21 in 21 appearances. Last: 2002, lost in semifinals
to Indiana.
Coach: Kelvin Sampson, 211-80 in nine years at Oklahoma; 387-228 in 20
years overall.
Starters: G Hollis Price, 6-1, Sr. (19.4 ppg, 2.9 apg, 45% 3-Pt FG, 92.9%
FT); G Ebi Ere, 6-5, Sr. (13.6 ppg, 4.7 rpg, 2.1 apg, 31.4% 3-Pt FG); F Kevin
Bookout, 6-8, Fr. (9.4 ppg, 6 rpg); G Quannas White, 6-1, Sr. (8.4 ppg, 3.7
rpg, 4 apg, 44% 3-Pt FG); C Jabahri Brown, 6-10, Jr. (6.3 ppg, 5.4 rpg).
Reserves: G De'Angelo Alexander, 6-4, Fr. (6.7 ppg, 3.4 rpg, 31.6% 3-Pt
FG); F Johnnie Gilbert, 6-8, So. (3.8 ppg, 4.8 rpg, 1 bpg, 41.9% 3-Pt FG); G
Blake Johnston, 6-1, So. (2.4 ppg, 1.6 apg, 36.8% 3-Pt FG, 87.5% FT); C Jozsef
Szendrei, 6-9, Sr. (1.6 ppg, 2.7 rpg).
Best wins: Michigan State, Connecticut, Oklahoma State, Kansas
Overview: Four starters and six other players are back from the team
that reached last year's Final Four, though OU isn't quite as physical without
Aaron McGhee inside. Price is the consummate senior leader, and he and White
give the Sooners a solid backcourt. They're still one of the nation's toughest
teams to play and score against (60.7 ppg), and are capable of making another
run deep into the tournament.
Did you know: Entering the Big 12 tournament, Oklahoma's 105-25 record
over the past four years was the third-best in the NCAA's Division I. Only Duke
(.859) and Stanford (.8080) had higher winning percentages than the Sooners
No. 2 Wake
Location: Winston-Salem, N.C.
Enrollment: 3,950.
Nickname: Demon Deacons.
Record: 24-5, 13-3.
Bid: Atlantic Coast Conference at-large.
NCAA history: 23-17 in 17 appearances. Last: 2002, lost to Oregon in
second round.
Coach: Skip Prosser, 44-18 in two years at Wake Forest; 209-96 in 10
years overall.
Starters: F Josh Howard, 6-6, Sr. (20.1 ppg, 8 rpg, 2 apg, 1.4 bpg, 2.1
spg, 49.3% FG, 40.3% 3-Pt FG, 83.8% FT); F Vytas Danelius, 6-8, So. (13 ppg,
7.6 rpg, 1.4 apg, 53.3% FG, 41% 3-Pt FG, 78.3% FT); G Taron Downey, 6-2, So.
(9.7 ppg, 3.4 rpg, 4.4 apg, 85.6% FT); C Eric Williams, 6-9 Fr. (8.4 ppg, 4.3
rpg, 53% FG); F Jamaal Levy, 6-9, So. (7.2 ppg, 6.6 rpg, 2.1 apg, 47.9% FG).
Reserves: G Justin Gray, 6-2 Fr. (11.9 ppg, 3.4 rpg, 3.2 apg, 77.4% FG);
G Trent Strickland, 6-5 Fr. (4.8 ppg, 2 rpg, 78% FT); F Chris Ellis, 6-9, Fr.
(3.1 ppg, 2.7 rpg, 50% FT).
Best wins: Duke, Maryland, Wisconsin.
Overview: Following the loss of five seniors from last year's tournament
team, the young Deacons have regrouped behind the all-around excellence of Howard,
one of the top players in the nation, and the emergence of Danelius, Downey
and Gray. The Deacons were unranked in the preseason, but have surprised observers
with good defense (opponents shot 39.3%), excellent rebounding (almost 10 a
game more than foes) and scoring balance. However, there's no question Howard
makes them go. A solid tournament for him will probably mean an extended run
for Wake.
Did you know: Prosser last year became the first coach to lead three

No. 3 Syracuse
Location: Syracuse, N.Y.
Enrollment: 10,000.
Nickname: Orangemen.
Record: 24-5, 13-3.
Bid: Big East at-large.
NCAA history: 40-28 in 27 appearances. Last: 2001, lost to Kansas in
second round.
Coach: Jim Boeheim, 647-226 in 27 years.

So. (3.6 ppg); F Jeremy McNeil, 6-8, Jr. (3.4 ppg).
Best wins: Missouri, Notre Dame, Pittsburgh.
Overview: Despite its loss to Connecticut in the Big East semifinals,
Syracuse pretty much has been a machine since falling to Memphis to open the
season. The Orangemen followed with 11 consecutive wins, and after a so-so January,
won 11 of 12 before stumbling at Madison Square Garden. Conference rookie of
the year Carmelo Anthony is a force, but Syracuse will have to receive big efforts
from its veterans in the tournament, which is a welcome change from last season's
extended NIT run.
Did you know: Syracuse has had two players named national player of the
year, Victor Hanson in 1927 and Derrick Coleman in 1990.

Location: Louisville.

FG, 74.1% FT); F Francisco Garcia, 6-7, Fr. (11.2 ppg, 2.9 rpg, 48.6% FG, 88.2%

FT); F Luke Whitehead, 6-7, Jr. (8.5 ppg, 5.2 rpg, 46.7% FG, 76.7% FT); C Marvin
Stone, 6-10, Sr. (10.7 ppg, 7.3 rpg, 51.9% FG, 61.1% FT).
Reserves: G-F Erik Brown, 6-5, Sr. (6.9 ppg, 2.2 rpg, 46.5% FG, 83.3%
FT, 41.8% 3-Pt FG); C-F Kendall Dartez, 6-10, Jr. (4.5 ppg, 3.0 rpg, 51% FG,
Best wins: Kentucky, Indiana, Marquette, Memphis.
Overview: The loss of injured 6-8 forward Ellis Myles and the once-uncertain
eligibility of Stone contributed to a late-season slide when the Cardinals lost
five of seven games. But their victory in the Conference USA tournament, on
their home floor, has restored the confidence that had made the Cardinals a
Final Four possibility in Pitino's second year as coach.
Did you know: Louisville's Pervis Ellison, voted most outstanding player
of the 1986 Final Four, joined Arnie Ferrin of the 1944 Utah team as the only
freshmen to win the award.

Location: Starkville, Miss.
Enrollment: 16,610.
Nickname: Bulldogs.
Record: 21-9, 9-7.

Coach: Rick Stansbury, 100-59 in five years.

69.2% FT); G Timmy Bowers, 6-2, Jr. (14.5 ppg, 3.8 rpg, 3.1 apg, 41.2% 3-Pt
FG); F Michal Ignerski, 6-10, Sr. (9.5 ppg, 5.1 rpg, 45.9% FG, 73.3% FT); G
Derrick Zimmerman, 6-3, Sr. (8.8 ppg, 4.0 rpg, 5.4 apg, 48.9% FG, 66.3% FT,
30.2% 3-Pt FG); F Ontario Harper, 6-5, So. (7.6 ppg, 5.1 rpg, 41.4 FG%, 69.8

FT, 32.5% 3-Pt FG); F Branden Vincent, 6-8, Jr. (4.4 ppg, 4.3 rpg, 50.5% FG,
Best wins: Xavier, Oklahoma, Louisiana State.
Overview: An 0-3 start in SEC play, after the Bulldogs lost a 17-point
lead in a loss at Alabama, created a long, hard uphill road. But the Bulldogs
recovered to make a second consecutive NCAA appearance for the second time in
school history. The experienced backcourt of Bowers and Zimmerman has provided
balance for the imposing inside game of junior center Austin.
Did you know: Four of the six NCAA appearances in school history have
taken place since 1995.
No. 6 Oklahoma
Location: Stillwater.
Enrollment: 21,000.

1.1 rpg).
Best wins: Michigan State, Oklahoma, Missouri, Texas.
Overview: The Cowboys limped to the end of their schedule, losing seven
of its last 11 regular-season games. They have struggled at times on offense,
but defense under Sutton is a constant. Opponents shoot less than 39% from the
field and average 62.5 points. Sanders is a particular problem for opposing
stars; he held Oklahoma's Hollis Price and Kansas' Kirk Hinrich to combined
7-for-32 shooting.
Did you know: Sutton, the third-winningest active coach in Division I
(behind Texas Tech's Bob Knight and New Mexico State's Lou Henson), is awaiting

Fr. (4 ppg, 6.3 rpg).
Best wins: Villanova, Gonzaga, Temple (twice), Boston College, Pennsylvania.
Overview: The Hawks limit opponents to 59 points per game. Nelson and
West are the A-10's top backcourt combining for 37 of the team's 70 points per
game. Carroll ranks as one of the nation's top three-point threats. Barley provides
defensive spark off the bench.
Did you know: The backcourt of Nelson and West were named to the United
States Basketball Writers Association All-District 1 team. Additionally, Martelli
was tabbed as the USBWA's district coach of the year.

3-Pt FG, 82.1% FG); G Brian Wethers, 6-5, Sr. (15.4 ppg, 4.4 rpg, 3.1 apg, 49%
FG, 39.7% 3-Pt FG); G Richard Midgley, 6-1, Fr. (9.4 ppg, 3.1 rpg, 3.0 apg,

Did you know: Shipp, the Pac-10's leading scorer, joined Oregon's Luke
Ridnour and Arizona State's Ike Diogu as the only players in the conference

No. 9 North
Carolina State
Location: Raleigh.
Enrollment: 28,011.
Nickname: Wolfpack.
Record: 18-12, 9-7.
Bid: Atlantic Coast Conference at-large.
NCAA history: 28-17 in 18 appearances. Last: 2002, lost to Connecticut
in second round.
Coach: Herb Sendek, 127-97 in seven years at North Carolina State; 190-123
in 10 years overall.
Starters: F Julius Hodge, 6-6, So. (17.6 ppg, 5.9 rpg, 3.6 apg, 1.4 spg,
80.6% FT); G Scooter Sherrill, 6-3, Jr. (10.2 ppg, 2.7 rpg, 1.3 apg, 1.1 spg,
87.5% FT, 37.5% 3-Pt FG); F Marcus Melvin, 6-8, 235, Jr. (12.3 ppg, 5.9 rpg,

6-10, So. (1.7 ppg, 1.1 rpg, 80% FT)
Best wins: Duke, Wake Forest.
Overview: After an 11-year NCAA drought, the 'Pack got their feet wet
in the tournament last year and are looking for more after a controversial finish
in their loss to UConn. Hodge is a versatile, clutch performer who can deliver.
But players such as Melvin, Powell and Sherrill will need to step up for State
to have staying power. Crawford is the 'Pack's lone senior. The team struggled
away from Raleigh, and its bench production can be spotty. But State got hot
in ACC tournament and its good foul shooting could serve it well in a close
Did you know: Sendek earned an academic scholarship to Carnegie-Mellon
(Pa.) and had a 3.95 grade-point average at the school.

Best wins: LSU, Alabama, Mississippi (twice).
Overview: There were more publicized teams in the SEC West, and there
were teams with more punishing schedules. But as others dealt with emotional
highs and lows, the Tigers survived in one of the most difficult leagues in
the nation, led by the play of second-team all-SEC guard Marquis Daniels.
Did You Know: Auburn's most successful tournament run was made by the
1986 Tigers, who lost to eventual national champion Louisville in a regional
No. 11 Pennsylvania
Location: Philadelphia.
Enrollment: 9,770.
Nickname: Quakers.
Record: 22-5, 14-0.
Bid: Ivy League champion.
NCAA history: 13-21 in 19 appearances. Last: 2002, lost to California
in first round..
Coach: Fran Dunphy, 253-134 in 14 seasons.
Starters: F Ugonna Onyekwe, 6-8, Sr. (16 ppg, 6.4 rpg, 50.3% FG); G Jeff
Schiffner, 6-6, Jr. (11.7 ppg, 3.3 rpg, 2 apg, 49.7% 3-Pt FG, 89.2% FT); F Koko
Archibong, 6-8, Sr. (10.9 ppg, 4.7 rpg, 49.3% FG, 42.7% 3-Pt FG), G Andrew Toole,
6-4, Sr. (10.5 ppg, 3 rpg, 39.6% 3-Pt FG, 82.7% FT); G Tim Begley, 6-5, So.
(7 ppg, 4.7 rpg, 43% 3-Pt FG).
Reserves: G David Klatsky, 5-11, Sr. (5.8 ppg, 2.9 rpg, 40.8% 3-Pt FG,
73.5% FT); C Adam Chubb, 6-9 Jr. (4.1 ppg, 2.2 rpg, 51.9% FG); F Jan Fikiel,
6-10, So. (2.8 ppg, 73.1% FT).
Best wins: Temple, Villanova, Princeton (twice).
Overview: This is a team that feels it has something to prove. The Quakers
thought they could have done some damage in last year's tournament and were
disappointed by the early ouster. Onyekwe and Archibong form a solid duo. Schiffner
is an outstanding long-range threat. Toole has battled a variety of injuries
for much of the season and isn't quite as explosive as he was last year. They've
had some trouble rebounding at times, although that picked up late in the season.
Did you know: This was the fifth time the Quakers have gone undefeated
in Ivy League play under Dunphy.
No. 12 Butler
Location: Indianapolis.
Enrollment: 4,264.
Nickname: Bulldogs.

Fr. (2.2 ppg, 39.6% FG, 42.0% 3FG).
Best wins: Western Kentucky, Illinois-Chicago, Wisconsin-Milwaukee.
Overview: The Bulldogs felt snubbed last year when they were not selected
for the tournament despite winning the Horizon League regular season championship.
The team put itself in a similar position this year, losing to Wisconsin-Milwaukee
in the championship game of the league tournament. So, Butler has something
to prove. If anything, the Bulldogs have been consistent in recent years. Butler
is the first Horizon League team to post seven straight 20-win seasons. In the
past three years, the Bulldogs put together the three best single season win
totals in team history. This year's team boasts a balanced scoring attack, with
seven different players leading the team in scoring at least one game this season.
Did you know: Achery broke the NCAA Division I record for consecutive
free throws made. His record streak, which began prior to this season, ended
Jan. 18 at 85.
No. 13 Austin
Location: Clarksville, Tenn.
Enrollment: 7,004.
Nickname: Governors.

70.6% FT, 30.5% 3-Pt FG); G Rhet Wierzba, 6-5, Jr. (8.9 ppg, 3.8 rpg, 42% FG,
71.1% FT); F Adrian Henning, 6-6, Jr. (15.4 ppg, 7.1 rpg, 56% FG, 63% FT, 40.7%

3-Pt FG), F Levi Carmichael, 6-0, So. (3.1 ppg, 2.0 apg, 86.4% FT).
Best wins: Memphis, Eastern Washington, Tennessee Tech, Morehead State,
Murray State.
Overview: Austin Peay has made an impressive turnaround from 14-18 last
season. Receiving little preseason attention after losing Nick Stapleton, the
nation's No. 7 scorer last year, the Governors focused on defense. Since Jan.
1, the team has held 10 opponents to fewer than 60 points.
Did you know: The Governors' 23 wins are one shy of tying the team record.
No. 14 Manhattan
Location: Riverdale, N.Y.
Enrollment: 3,400.

Best wins: St. John's, Seton Hall, Fairfield (twice) and Siena.
Overview: MAAC player of the year Flores is among the nation's top guards
and earned conference tournament MVP honors. Holmes, the conference's Sixth

Seton Hall and St. John's came during a 15-game winning streak.

Overview: Having established itself during the regular season as the
league's team to beat, South Carolina State ended Hamtpon's run as two-time
defending MEAC tournament champion and now will look for an unlikely win in
its sixth NCAA tournament. Of course, these NCAA trips always leave South Carolina
State with one of the field's more daunting draws.

Tehran (AFP) Feb 7, 2013
Iran's all-powerful supreme leader on Thursday rejected a US offer to negotiate one-on-one on Tehran's nuclear ambitions, ruling out such contacts so long as Washington keeps up its threats against the Islamic republic.
"I am not a diplomat but a revolutionary and I speak frankly," Ayatollah Ali Khamenei told air force commanders in remarks published on his website. "You (Americans) are pointing the gun at Iran and say either negotiate or we will shoot."
"Some rejoice at the offer of negotiations ... (but) negotiations will not solve anything," he said, adding that those in Iran who prefer to risk "American domination" by negotiating with Washington would be dealt with.
Khamenei has the final say on all key issues in the Islamic republic, including Iran's sensitive nuclear activities and foreign policy.
His stance appeared to contradict that of Foreign Minister Ali Akbar Salehi who said on Monday that he detected signs the United States was rethinking its approach towards Tehran.
Khamenei said: "Iran will not accept to negotiate with he who threatens us with pressure," in reference to a list sanctions adopted by Washington to coerce Iran into curbing its nuclear programme.
"The offer of talks is meaningful when the other side shows goodwill," he said.
The remarks come at a time when Tehran and six world powers are preparing to resume stalled talks over Iran's nuclear programme in the Kazakh city of Almaty on February 26.
Iran and the P5+1 group of the United States, China, Russia, Britain, France and Germany held three rounds of talks last year, the last of which ended in stalemate in June in Moscow.
Calls to roll back its atomic work were rebuffed by Tehran, which demanded world powers scale back sanctions which have caused pain for its struggling economy.
"Does imposing, in your own words, crippling sanctions show goodwill or hostility?" Khamenei said on Thursday, responding to a new offer of bilateral talks proposed by US Vice President Joe Biden last week.
Biden said at the Munich Security Conference that Washington was open to direct talks with Iran to resolve the nuclear issue provided "the Iranian leadership, supreme leader, is serious."
"We have made it clear at the outset that... we would be prepared to meet bilaterally with the Iranian leadership," Biden said.
"That offer stands, but it must be real and tangible, and there has to be an agenda that they're prepared to speak to. We are not just prepared to do it for the exercise," Biden said.
Khamenei's remarks came a day after the US tightened sanctions on Iran to further choke off its oil income.
The two foes are locked in a tense showdown over an array of issues, including Tehran's nuclear ambitions which the West and Israel suspect are aimed at military objectives, despite Iran's repeated denials.
Washington broke off relations with Iran in 1980 in the aftermath of the storming of the US embassy in Tehran that led to 52 American diplomats being taken hostage by Islamist students.
Since then, the US has been vilified by the Islamic republic as the "Great Satan."
Iran is also being pressured by the UN's atomic watchdog agency to allow broader access to its nuclear facilities in a bid to resolve outstanding issues over the Islamic republic's past atomic activities.
A team from the agency is expected in Tehran on February 13.

A great burger is not about a fancy brioche bun or homemade ketchup. It's about achieving the ideal proportion of juicy, cheese-cloaked beef, sharp onion, crunchy lettuce, and sweet-tangy "special sauce," wrapped in a soft toasted bun. This one nails it.
The special thing about special sauce is that it's pretty damn easy to make.
Tamarind is sweet, sour, and quite tart and provides the ideal base for this finger-licking glaze.
Don't trust anyone who doesn't love a chicken cutlet.
The chips and pickles? Non-negotiable.
Sloppy Joes made of...tofu! This would also make a killer taco filling.
Magical mini versions of Juicy Lucys, cheese-filled burgers that hail from Minnesota.
Are the bottles and jars lining your refrigerator door more half-empty than half-full? It's time to do some cleanup.
This gochujang rub is great on ribs, but would also work on a pork shoulder before braising, or bone-in pieces of chicken.
This Russian dressing, along with Swiss cheese, caramelized onions, sauerkraut, and sweet relish, helps make up the Reuben Dog.
Cheaper, tastier, better: It's time to learn how to make homemade barbecue sauce.
The not-new but definitely improved Mickey D's holy trinity is right here. A must-have with Dale Talde's Chicken Nugs.
This genius method for encases several thin slices of pork in an especially crunchy tonkatsu coating. The meat stays super juicy during the quick frying time.
Seasoned stock keeps this meatloaf juicy and flavorful. A doctored ketchup delivers just the right amount of tang, spice, and sweetness. And the bacon? We think it speaks for itself. This is part of BA's Best, a collection of our essential recipes.
Don't even think about serving those shrimp naked. This cocktail sauce recipe is ready in seconds and no party is complete without it.
Smear this special sauce on a grilled burger for the perfect hamburger.

HANOI, Vietnam (AP) A white mouse on board a Japan-bound Vietnam Airlines plane forced the flight to be delayed for more than four hours, an official said Monday, adding that it might have been brought on in hand luggage.
The Boeing 777, which earlier arrived in Hanoi from Danang, left for Narita Airport in Tokyo early Sunday, more than four hours after its scheduled departure after technicians found the small, white mouse on the plane, said airline spokesman Nguyen Chan.
Chan said a passenger on the Danang-Hanoi flight told crewmembers that he had spotted the mouse on the plane.
"This is the first time we experienced something like this," Chan said, adding that the rodent had to be seized before the flight could resume because it could have threatened the plane's safety.
Chan said Vietnamese aviation authorities suspected that a passenger may have been carrying the mouse in hand luggage.

|Please note: This article is about the peasant. For other uses of the term, please see Hachiro (disambiguation).
Hachiro was a peasant who lived in the farming village of Chibasu.
Family Edit
Hachiro was the son of Gendo. [1]
Bandits Edit
His father warned Hachiro about the road that led to the mountains.[1] Hachiro didn't know that the villagers were secretely workingout a very profitable exchange with the pirate group known as the Serpents of Sanada, who had a hideout in these mountains. [2]
Broken Tiger Edit
In 1168 Hachiro was still a boy when ronin bandits led by a man known as the Broken Tiger stormed the village, killing the few Lion samurai guards stationed there. Hachiro would have been killed if not for one of the Lion killing his attacker, allowing Hachiro to escape. After overwhelming and killing the Lion, Broken Tiger planted a Dragon Wakizashi to misdirect the Lion retaliation toward their enemies in the War of Silk and Steel. [1]
Revenge Edit
When the Lion led by Akodo Bakin came to investigate, Hachiro told Kishimoto, Bakin's ronin advisor, what had happened. Bakin and his men tracked down the bandits and destroyed them, and the Drunken Tiger was killed. [1]

HTC's Desire 820- the first phone from HTC's stock with a 64-bit processor, is set to get a new twin, albeit with minor modifications.
As per China's Telecommunication Equipment Certification Center's website, a new model named HTC D820ws has been certified recently.
A quick look at the Desire 820ws' specifications suggest that it bears almost complete resemblance to its former namesake, except for LTE-capability and a speed of 1.7 GHz.
Given its speed, which is an upgrade from the 1.5 GHz of the standard HTC Desire 820, speculation is rife that the Desire 820ws may contain a 32-bit processor. Even though there has been no official word from HTC in this regard, given its certification status, HTC may look at the Mobile World Congress in March as a juicy launch date if they are to launch the phone outside China, which at this point looks unlikely.
HTC Desire 820, launched just two months ago, was the first 64-bit smartphone from the HTC stable. It came with 16GB internal storage (expandable to 32GB), a 2GB RAM, 13MP/8MP camera and a 5.5" screen.
The only major the newly certified version and the previous one is that this sports a MediaTek processor while its previously released sibling sports a Snapdragon 615.

Montana has followed Oregon and Washington State as the third state to legalize "physician-assisted dying."
Or should I use, as the Christian Science Monitor does in covering the Montana story, the term favored by opponents of these laws -- "suicide" ?
The terminology is loaded, as one might expect when the topic is life and death and who decides when one is over.
In Brad Knickerbocker's story this weekend, he quotes the Montana State Supreme Court, which uses the phrasing preferred by supporters of this policy.
The majority justices wrote that they... :
"... find nothing in the plain language of Montana statutes indicating that physician aid in dying is against public policy. In physician aid in dying, the patient -- not the physician -- commits the final death-causing act by self-administering a lethal dose of medicine."
Opponents, calling it "suicide," pledged to head straight for the legislature to get new laws specifically prohibiting the practice.
Meanwhile the Monitor sticks with "suicide" to describe the act of choosing when to die if you are a mentally competent adult suffering with a terminal illness.
What's your call on this? Would you want this choice, however you called it, for yourself or a loved one?

Since it's negative, I'd guess the problem is the date format. I don't
see anything in the documentation about what is assumed for the various
dates as date strings as far as the format, but I'm guessing it has
interpreted the mm/dd/yyyy format that you have input as dd/mm/yyyy instead.
bndyield(179.968, 0.04, ...
datenum('4/5/2013','mm/dd/yyyy'), ...
datenum('8/20/2015','mm/dd/yyyy'),4,0,0, ...
datenum('5/13/1994','mm/dd/yyyy'),[], ...
datenum('8/20/2015','mm/dd/yyyy'), ...
or any other variation to ensure the dates are interpreted correctly and
see if that fixes things. Don't have toolbox so can't check directly

The Spike TV Guys Choice Awards were last night, and I don't have a single clue who won what – *winks at journalism degree* – but I do have photos of Sports Illustrated Swimsuit cover models Chrissy Teigen, Nina Agdal and Lily Alridge looking fucking amazing.

Here's the 2014 Sports Illustrated Swimsuit cover featuring Nina Agdal, Chrissy Teigen, and Lily Aldridge's butts. And before everyone starts joking that it takes three fantastic supermodel asses to make up for Kate Upton's giant breasts, maybe you should consider Sports Illustrated didn't want to see their family members have any… unfortunate accidents. *slaps shut… More »

A Canadian physician and epidemiologist who has authored some 100 peer-reviewed articles and chapters, Bruce Aylward is an expert on infectious diseases. He joined the World Health Organization in 1992 and worked in the field for seven years on national immunization programs for measles, tetanus and hepatitis in the Middle East, Africa and Asia.
Aylward has overseen and managed the scale-up of the Global Polio Eradication Initiative since 1998, during which time the program expanded to operate in every country of the world, the annual global budget increased to $700 million a year, polio-funded staff deployed by WHO grew to over 3,500 people worldwide, and new monovalent oral poliovirus vaccines were developed for the programme. In 2014, only three countries remained polio-endemic.
He says: "It's been estimated that our investment in smallpox eradication pays off every 26 days."
Since 2011, Aylward has also led WHO's work in preparedness, readiness and response to health emergencies. By developing global strategies, analyzing health trends and advising on policies and country collaboration, the WHO helps make sure that outbreaks — like the 2014 ebola epidemic — stay under control.
