Via the Toronto Star:
A Toronto criminal lawyer's Twitter account has sparked outrage online after several offensive tweets were posted in the wake of the Boston bombing.
The tweets were sent last week from Twitter account @Dasilvalaw, which has since been deleted, though several retweets can still be found online.
"I pray for the suspects. May they slay the police army of satan. Death to all police!" reads one posting sent from @Dasilvalaw. Other tweets from that account contained vitriolic responses to offended Twitter users, including "am praying that u get violently raped. May cancer be upon u.!!!"
The lawyer, David Da Silva, 34, said in an emailed response sent Monday to the Star that he is "not the author of any such tweets."
Asked in a follow-up email if his account had been hacked, the defence lawyer said he is "having this matter investigated at this time."
Lawyer Nadia Liva, who sent an email to the Star saying she is acting as his counsel, said he is "very concerned" and "we are currently investigating the tweets, which were not authored by Mr. Da Silva."
I don't know Da Silva, either personally or professionally, but his website bio is generic: (more…)

BWW JR: JACKIE AND ME at Atlantic For Kids
With all the Broadway shows my daughter (who's eight) and I have been privilaged to see lately, I was begining to think that theatre for older kids was all top-tier ticket prices and my little guy (who's four)would be my sole date for anything staged just for kids. We've enjoyed ANNIE, BRING IT ON, NEWSIES and several other Broadway offerings that appeal to kids, but the other great shows in town for kids seemed too babyish for my almost nine-year-old. Then last week, my daughter asked me if there were any plays without songs in them. I was determined to find a play for her to enjoy!
Just at the right moment, we were invited to see JACKIE AND ME, the latest from Atlantic Theater Company's
The theater describes JACKIE AND ME like this:
Joey Stoshack may not be the best baseball player on his Little League team but he does have one unique advantage. With the help of the old baseball cards in his prized collection, Joey has the remarkable ability to travel through time! When assigned to write a report on a legendary African American, Joey ventures to the segregated world of the 1947 Brooklyn Dodgers clubhouse to meet his hero and one of baseball's greatest players, Jackie Robinson. Through his adventures, he learns what it was like for the man who endured more than his share of prejudice to break baseball's color barrier.
I was suprised to see that the house was quite empty. I'd think a show of this quality would be more agressively attended by culture-seeking families on a Saturday morning. It's great to have the opportunity to bring your older child to Broadway shows, but it's important not to miss the family theatre gems out there like JACKIE AND ME.
- A play that teaches kids about history, tolerance and baseball.
- Best for ages eight and up.
- For more information or to purchase tickets, visit the show's website.
- Completely entertaining, even without any music!

Local gasoline prices could be going up again soon according to an oil industry analyst.
The local economy sputtered this May, according to year over year figures.
With big health care changes looming on the state and federal levels, Milwaukee's free clinics are bracing for confusion and to be needed, like never before, even though supporters of each change say it's designed to serve the most vulnerable.
A mining company says it has temporarily withdrawn its armed guards from an exploratory drilling site in northwestern Wisconsin.
Gogebic Taconite spokesman Bob Seitz tells the Wisconsin State Journal the guards from Bulletproof Securities were pulled out Wednesday because the contractor failed to obtain proper licensing from the state.
He says the company has two or three other options and will rely on them until state approval is received.

Video Log Champa Nankati Vietnam War Royal Lao Army Born: 04/21/1949 Interview Date: 06/03/2010 Interviewed By: Eileen Hurst 00:00:00 Introduction 00:01:47 Nankati was a Captain (O-3) serving in Region One in Northern Laos. He also toured through Region Two in Vientienne, the capital city of Laos. Nankati trained Hmong soldiers from Region Two. 00:02:47 Nankati's father was also in the military, serving with the French Army at Dien Bien Phu. After the French withdrew from Indochina-Vietnam, his father became a policeman. 00:04:01 He was born in Western Laos and joined the military in 1967. He entered the military as an undercover official, monitoring opium production and infiltration for the United States and Royal Lao governments. He was recruited by the commander of the Laotian army as well as an American named"Sam." 00:06:59 His job was to assess the facilities, report on their actions, and report to the American and Laotian governments. Burmese workers cooked opium and shipped it into Laos and Thailand. 00:09:00 He was part of a twelve man team that observed opium production in Burma and Laos. He watched their activities and reported to the Americans from 1967-71. He slept in the production camps for months at a time. 00:10:57 The Lao government needed young men for military service. At the time, the army was very popular for young men. The Royal Lao army as well as the US government paid good money for the SGU soldiers. For this reason, as well as patriotism, Nankati joined SGU Division 111. There, he served as an intelligence officer. He trained in Thailand for nearly six months under American and Thai instructors. 00:14:13 His intelligence training consisted of interviews and debriefings. He would interview enemy soldiers, as well as military families. 00:15:11 He went through basic training in Laos. Officer school consisted of weapons and leadership training, after which he was made a 2nd Lieutenant.
