CIUDAD JUÁREZ—Esteban was riding shotgun in his family's rusted teal minivan when his dad, Lorenzo, suddenly stopped the car. It was odd—a vehicle facing the opposite direction blocked their way on the narrow street. They were just four blocks from home. Esteban, who was 6 at the time, with soft eyes and a freckled nose, noticed the glass-strewn pavement first. Next, he saw the vehicle was riddled with bullet holes "this big," he says, peering through a silver-dollar-size circle made with his thumb and forefinger.

Update: Woman found dead in Burford believed to be in her 70s (From The Oxford Times)

Woman's body found in lay-by in Burford
1:40pm Thursday 3rd October 2013 in News By Ben Wilkinson, Crime Reporter. Call me on (01865) 425427
THE woman found dead in a lay-by near Burford is in her 70s, police have just confirmed.
The woman was discovered by a member of the public near the entrance of Burford Golf Club on teh A361 just after 7am.
Police have said her death is not being treated as suspicious but have not elaborated why that is.
Det Sgt Kerry O'Leary, of Banbury CID, said: "We are seeking to establish the full circumstances surrounding the woman's death and have lines of enquiry which we are pursuing, but at this stage her death is not being treated as suspicious.
"We have yet to notify the woman's next of kin and are continuing to make enquiries in order to locate them as soon as possible."
The A361 re-opened around 2pm, police spokesman Craig Evry added.
Police were called to the scene at about 7.05am and a forensics tent was erected near the entrance of the golf club.
It is believed the woman's body has been removed from the scene and police were also seen taking a silver Jaguar away.
There were several cones visible in the roadway.
Inspector Bob Jarrett said earlier this morning: "At 7.05am police were informed that potentially a woman's body was close to the entrance of Burford Golf Club.
"We found the body of a female in the lay-by at that location."
A man who operates a kebab van at the lay-by said he arrived this morning to find the area cordoned off by police.
The A361 was closed this morning from the golf club down to near Cotsworld Wildlife Park, which remained open for business.
Ray Murray, of Windrush Court, The Hill, Burford, said: "A neighbour said to me this morning 'have you heard about the murder at the golf course?'
"We're very surprised, and it's not something you expect in a quiet place like Burford.
"The golf club is a very select one.
"The thing about the golf course, which maybe makes it different to quite a few others like it, is that it has a main road (the A361) running right through it.
"We have heard police cars racing up and down the hill from about 7 o'clock this morning, and they have blocked off the Burford-Lechlade road."
Reports say six police cars, one incident van and two unmarked cars are at the scene.

The world doesn't come to an end and , frankly, if next of kin are so incommunicado that they can't be informed within 48 hours, chances are they won't enquire for months. It's simply an observation. The French aren't best at everything, believe me. But a lot of the secrecy is the default position of plod and juries, whilst "the cornerstone of criminal legal justice" are apparently too dim witted to disregard spurious stuff they may read in papers or online. Hey Ho.

Phil Strub is the Director of Entertainment Media at the Department of Defense.
When people see what looks like an actual modern American combat vehicle or aircraft in a movie like "Transformers" or a TV show like "24," chances are they don't wonder "Did they get that from the U.S. military?" But for my two-person Defense Department (DoD) office in the Pentagon, and the small Military Service staffs based in Los Angeles, working with Hollywood filmmakers is a full-time job.
Entertainment media producers have wanted access to U.S. military equipment and real estate — including ships — since the dawn of American cinema. The first movie to get an "Oscar" in the then-new "Best Picture" category was the 1927 silent film "Wings." "Wings" was a big hit commercially and critically because the support the studio got from the Army Air Corps allowed it to portray World War I training and combat far more realistically than it could ever have done on its own. And the Army got a great opportunity to showcase itself to millions of Americans.
Things haven't changed much since then. Despite the sophistication of special effects, computer generated graphics, and other technologies, filmmakers still very much want U.S. military production support — even though it comes with strings attached. For example, along with their "wish lists" for military support, filmmakers must also send us the scripts. These ultimately have to present a reasonably realistic portrayal of the military — though obviously what is reasonably realistic varies widely depending on the production. It's one thing for "Black Hawk Down," and quite another for "Iron Man 2." If filmmakers are willing to negotiate with us to resolve our script concerns, usually we'll reach an agreement. If not, filmmakers are free to press on without military assistance, and they often do.

Admin, Alumni, Guests
We are emailing to formally share our deep concern about the treatment of the recent protests on campuses around the country, but particularly at the University of London.
We hope when reading this you will consider our longstanding views on ULU (i.e.questions over its financial/political viability), if only to appreciate the political sincerity with which we write.
In the past week, police have violently evicted, beaten, and arrested students from peaceful occupations at UoL, arresting 3/4s of the ULU sabbatical team. Elsewhere, they have attempted to recruit students to act as informers against fellow student activists in Cambridge, and attacked protests against outsourcing in Sussex. Across the country, managements are using injunctions and violence to suppress dissent.
It is our belief that the viciousness of this police response is somewhat unique in the history of British universities. Students beaten, strangled, having teeth punched out, dragged across roads, and violently bundled into vans.
Whilst we understand as Director of the LSE, you have localized pressures beyond your previous role, we just want to point to your words from 2011 about the police violence against the Occupy Wall Street movement – "It sounds melodramatic to say that democracy itself is at stake in the widespread moves to repress [the] strategy of public demonstration. But it is true. Democracy is not on its last legs; there is plenty of chance to fight back against repression and elite efforts to manage public participation. But the issue is basic. After all, democracy depends not just on voting and the rule of law but on social movements and public expressions of dissent."With these words in mind, we are asking for your help in writing a joint letter to the senior management at UoL to call for the return of the university as a public space for students and in defence of peaceful protest. Having spent the past week watching friends get beaten up arbitrarily, having stayed up all night sat outside police stations waiting for their release (none have been charged, nor will they be – as the reasons for arrest were spurious) - the experience has been utterly demoralising. Despite this, we believe it would be a betrayal of LSESU's history of political activism to stay silent.Best wishesJay StollGeneral SecretaryHannah RichmondActivities and DevelopmentRosie ColemanEducation OfficerAnneessa MahmoodCommunity and Welfare

Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer has called Apple a low-volume player in all areas of the technology industry except tablets, and claims that he is not envious of the company.
In an interview with The Wall Street Journal, Ballmer was asked whether he would prefer Apple's hardware and software controlling business model.
"We like our model, as we are evolving it," Ballmer replied. "In every category Apple competes, it's the low-volume player, except in tablets. In the PC market, obviously the advantage of diversity has mattered since 90-something per cent of PCs that get sold are Windows PCs. We'll see what winds up mattering in tablets."
"Apple has incredible success, so congratulations to it," Ballmer said. "We believe our model, which brings in $80 billion per year is also pretty good, so I'm not envious of what they're doing."
Ballmer refused to comment on whether Microsoft is working on its own smartphone, rather than partnering with Nokia, Samsung and HTC as it has for Windows Phone 8.
Ballmer seems pretty confident in the newly launched Surface tablet. Just yesterday, we reported that the Microsoft CEO said that the Surface is the tablet that customers really want, not the iPad.

Born in Hoboken, New Jersey, on December 12, 1915, Frank Sinatra rose to fame singing big band numbers. In the '40s and '50s, he had a dazzling array of hit songs and albums and went on to appear in dozens of films, winning an Oscar for From Here to Eternity. He left behind a massive catalog of work that includes iconic tunes like "Love and Marriage" and "New York, New York."
When I sing, I believe. I'm honest.
Early Life
Francis Albert "Frank" Sinatra was born December 12, 1915, in Hoboken, New Jersey. The only child of Sicilian immigrants, a teenaged Sinatra decided to become a singer after watching Bing Crosby perform. He dropped out of high school, where he was a member of the glee club, and began to sing at local nightclubs. Radio exposure brought him to the attention of bandleader Harry James, with whom Sinatra made his first recordings, including "All or Nothing at All." In 1940, Tommy Dorsey invited Sinatra to join his band. After two years of chart-topping success with Dorsey, Sinatra decided to strike out on his own.
Solo Career
Between 1943 and 1946, Sinatra's solo career blossomed as the singer charted 17 different Top 10 singles. The mobs of bobby-soxer fans Sinatra attracted with his dreamy baritone earned him such nicknames as "The Voice" and "The Sultan of Swoon." "It was the war years, and there was a great loneliness," recalled Sinatra, who was unfit for military service due to a punctured eardrum. "I was the boy in every corner drugstore who'd gone off, drafted to the war. That was all."
Sinatra made his movie acting debut in 1943, in Higher and Higher. In 1945, he won a special Academy Award for The House I Live In, a 10-minute short made to promote racial and religious tolerance on the home front. Sinatra's popularity began to slide in the postwar years, however, leading to a loss of his recording and film contracts in the early 1950s. In 1953, he made a triumphant comeback, winning an Oscar for his portrayal of the Italian-American soldier Maggio in From Here to Eternity. Although this was his first non-singing role, Sinatra quickly found a vocal outlet when he received a new recording contract with Capitol Records in the same year. In his music, the Sinatra of the 1950s brought a more mature sound with jazzier inflections in his voice.
Having regained stardom, Sinatra enjoyed continued success in both film and music for years to come. He received critical acclaim for his performance in the original film of The Manchurian Candidate (1962) and an Academy Award nomination for his work in The Man with the Golden Arm (1955). Meanwhile, he continued to chart Top 10 singles. When his record sales began to dip by the end of the 1950s, Sinatra left Capitol to establish his own record label, Reprise. In association with Warner Bros., which later bought Reprise, Sinatra also set up his own independent film production company, Artanis.
Rat Pack
By the mid-1960s, Sinatra was back on top again. He received a Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award and headlined the 1965 Newport Jazz Festival with Count Basie's Orchestra.

My cold is worse today and I may have slept 2 hours last night (feels like my skull is going to crack open and like someone poured lighter fluid on my nose and buffed it with sandpaper). I barely have enough energy to walk to the kitchen. I'm chalking this race up to "suffer training for 100s". If you see me on the side of the trail dead, you're welcome to my ITR racing shirt (it's a pretty badass new, green pearl izumi shirt with the ITR team logo front and back) and my water bottle and gels. Please let my dog know I'm dead. Thanks.

Most Malaysians love clams, especially those stir-fried with a spicy chili paste. I love clams; I grew up eating all sort of clams as my late mother would buy clams from the market and cooked them into a variety of delectable dishes, such as chili clams. (Check out my chili crab recipes here and here.)
One of my favorite childhood memories was the many clam digging picnics with my late parents, at the beaches in Penang, and Kedah—my mother's seaside hometown. Whenever we went to a beach, we would dig up the sands in search of clams, or siput. We would spend hours until we harvested enough clams for dinner, I was always so excited whenever we went to the beach.
The few years when I was in the midwest of America, I was constantly craving for fresh clams. But alas, there were never any live clams at the markets there, due to the cold weather. Once in a while, our local Chinese restaurants would get some clams, but most of the times, the clams were stale and they were simply horrendous to eat. I am so blessed that I am now in the west coast where fresh and live clams are always available at Asian stores, and I can have my fix of chili clams whenever I like.
The briny and sweet flavours of clams pair perfectly with the spicy chilli and bean sauce in this chili clams recipe. Please take note that each clam will cook at a different time, so as soon as the shell opens up, remove from the heat immediately. If the clams don't open up, they are probably bad and should be discarded.

Yes! This is one of my favorite clam dish; the other one will be clam in black bean sauce. In Indonesia (well at least at my late parents house), we call this "Kerang Masak Tauco". We serve this with plain steamed rice. Thanks for bringing back sweet memories of home.
Coincidentally, guess what I was doing just a few hours ago? I was out on the beach in Mexico digging clams! I have enough for a few good servings of chili clams! Thanks for the recipe. I can't wait!2Hi, Scallions are listed in the ingredients but not mentioned in the Method.
Are they used as a garnish?
3Oh yes, we absolutely love clams here. I cook clams once every month when we go grocery shopping. It's always good to learn a new way to preparing them, though really, simple stirfry with ginger and spring onions make me happy enough. :-)
