"WASHINGTON (CNN) --",
"Bush on Friday proposed a temporary, broad-based tax relief package aimed at spurring the nation's slowing economy.",
"\"We can provide a shot in the arm\" to the nation's slowing economy, Bush said Friday at the White House.",
"During remarks at the White House, Bush, flanked by economic advisers, said the nation's economy is at risk for a downturn and Congress must act to head off trouble.",
"\"a temporary, broad-based tax relief package aimed at spurring the nation's slowing economy must be big enough to make a difference in an economy as large and dynamic as ours,\" Bush said.",
"\"By passing a growth package quickly, we can provide a shot in the arm to keep a fundamentally strong economy healthy, and it will help keep economic sectors that are going through adjustments, such as the housing market, from adversely affecting other parts of the nation's slowing economy.\"",
"Watch more of Bush's tax outline » .",
"It should equal about 1 percent of the nation's gross domestic product, or roughly $140 billion, he added.",
"Bush said the nation's slowing economy will continue to grow but at a slower rate.",
"Bush offered no specific details of a temporary, broad-based tax relief package aimed at spurring the nation's slowing economy, but Bush did insist that a temporary, broad-based tax relief package aimed at spurring the nation's slowing economy include tax incentives for business, \"including small businesses, to make major investments in small businesses's enterprises this year.\"",
"Bush also said a temporary, broad-based tax relief package aimed at spurring the nation's slowing economy must include \"rapid income tax relief\" for consumers to \"lift the nation's slowing economy at a time when people otherwise might spend less.\"",
"Although Democratic leaders in Congress expressed general support for Bush's remarks, other Democrats on Capitol Hill met Bush's proposal with suspicion.",
"Two Democratic leadership aides made it clear Friday that a temporary, broad-based tax relief package aimed at spurring the nation's slowing economy would not win support from Democratic leaders unless a temporary, broad-based tax relief package aimed at spurring the nation's slowing economy includes relief for low and middle income earners.",
"\"We want to include people who pay taxes, not necessarily income taxes -- a lot of lower income people pay payroll taxes,\" said one aide.",
"Another source stated flatly, \"We're not going to pass a bill in the House that doesn't include low-income people.\"",
"Sen. Charles Schumer, D-New York, said Sen. Charles Schumer, D-New York was disappointed that Bush did not include stimulus-spending measures aimed at helping the disadvantaged such as extending unemployment benefits.",
"Sen. Charles Schumer, D-New York said such spending initiatives would jump-start the nation's slowing economy faster than tax cuts alone.",
"\"I think if Congress avoid any of the ideological fights, Congress could actually pass something so that it would take effect on March 1,\" Sen. Charles Schumer, D-New York said.",
"House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-California, expressed agreement with Bush on \"the need to provide assistance immediately,\" saying in a statement that \"we must invest our resources in such a way that injects confidence and consumer demand, promotes economic growth and creates jobs.\"",
"Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, D-Nevada, said, \"I also agree that our focus must be on finding temporary measures that will do the job effectively.\"",
"Sen. Edward Kennedy, D-Massachusetts, agreed that \"we must act swiftly to boost the nation's slowing economy\" but stressed the need to help families who \"are struggling every day to pay their bills, heat their homes and pay their mortgages.\"",
"Bush's remarks came a day after talks on the subject with Democratic and Republican lawmakers, and following Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke's call for a fiscal stimulus package to help an economy beset by plummeting stock prices and a credit and mortgage crunch.",
"Bush said Friday Bush was encouraged by Bush's discussions with lawmakers.",
"\"I believe there is enough broad consensus that we can come up with a package that can be approved with bipartisan support.\"",
"Existing income tax cuts supported by the Bush administration are due to expire in 2010, and Bush called on Congress to make Existing income tax cuts supported by the Bush administration permanent.",
"\"Unless Congress acts, the American people will face massive tax increases in less than three years,\" Bush said.",
"\"This tax increase would put jobs and economic growth at risk.\"",
"Watch experts explain how to goose the economy » .",
"The proposed stimulus package comes as a leading gauge of future economic activity was released Friday by the Conference Board.",
"The December report showed a decline for a third straight month for the U.S. leading index -- down two-tenths of a percent.",
"The December report cited housing permits for the largest negative contribution to the U.S. leading index.",
"See chart showing Americans' recession fears » .",
"On Thursday, the Dow Jones industrial average of stock prices dropped more than 300 points after reports of slowing growth and massive debt write-offs by Merrill Lynch.",
"Merrill Lynch reported a nearly $10 billion loss for the fourth quarter of 2007 and wrote off more than $11 billion in bad mortgage debts.",
"Former Treasury Secretary Lawrence Summers stressed the importance of whom any relief package would target.",
"\"It needs to go to people who are going to spend it,\" Former Treasury Secretary Lawrence Summers said Friday on CNN's \"American Morning.\"",
"\"That means particularly those who rely on tax refunds -- those receiving benefits, those whose incomes have been hurt by the downturn.\"",
"Bernanke told the House Budget Committee on Thursday that Bernanke does not believe the nation's slowing economy will enter a recession, but Bernanke said Bernanke expects growth to proceed at a slow pace this year and possibly into early 2009.",
"Bernanke said Congress needs to take decisive action to boost the nation's slowing economy.",
"\"To be useful, a fiscal stimulus package should be implemented quickly and structured so that a fiscal stimulus package's effects on aggregate spending are felt as much as possible within the next 12 months or so,\" Bernanke said.",
"But Bernanke said any package should be \"explicitly temporary\" to avoid running up the government's long-term debt.",
"Bernanke stopped short of suggesting that the Bush tax cuts should be made permanent, telling lawmakers Bernanke supports \"the law of arithmetic.\"",
"\"What comes in at least has to equal what goes out at some point,\" Bernanke said.",
"In 2001, Americans received checks from the government designed to stimulate the nation's slowing economy.",
"Individuals received $300 and families $600.",
"Twenty to 40 percent of the checks were spent within days.",
"Consumers saved one-third of the money, and two-thirds went back into the nation's slowing economy within two quarters, officials said.",

"Todd Barber gave up a six-figure salary as a marketing consultant and dedicated Todd Barber's life to restoring the world's ocean reef ecosystems.",
"\"I had been following this reef since I had been 14; it was where my first dive was,\" recalls Todd Barber.",
"\"When this reef was lost, that sparked something in Todd Barber.",

"Not only are the world's coral reefs home to 25 percent of all marine fish species, but the organization states that 500 million people rely on coral reefs for 500 million people's food and livelihoods.",
"So Todd Barber and Todd Barber's father, a marine biologist and fellow diver, sat down to devise a solution to \"put the reef back.\"",
"What started as a basic idea to shape concrete around a beach ball led to three years of research, testing and prototyping with the help of friends and college professors.",
"Watch as Todd Barber explains Todd Barber's passion for saving reefs » .",
"\"Our goal was to mimic nature, not dictate nature,\" says Todd Barber.",
"\"And that meant that I couldn't come up with an idea; I had to design something that would fit exactly what the reef required.\"",
"The result was what Todd Barber calls a \"Reef Ball.\"",
"Made of concrete engineered to last more than 500 years, Reef Balls are circular structures with a hollow center that serve as a base habitat upon which a natural reef can grow.",
"Portable, inexpensive and environmentally friendly, according to Todd Barber, Reef Balls can be built anywhere and are used to mimic and rehabilitate all forms of oceanic reefs, such as mangrove, oyster and coral reefs.",
"Reef Balls can also help control erosion and stabilize shorelines.",
"Watch as an organization in Tampa tries to restore habitats for oysters » .",
"To manufacture and place Reef Balls in marine habitats around the world, Todd Barber established The Reef Ball Foundation in 1993.",
"Today, the non-profit organization works with environmental agencies, universities, community groups and corporations and empowers others to build and restore their local marine ecosystems.",
"\"[Reefs] have an incredible bearing on human life,\" says Todd Barber.",
"\"Without conserving these resources, these resources're going to be all gone before we even know what we've lost.\"",
"According to Todd Barber, marine conservation isn't just about Reef Balls, but they're one important tool.",
"\"It's about saving natural reefs.",
"It's about changing our behaviors,\" says Todd Barber.",
"\"It's better to save the reef that you have than to build a new one.\"",
"Since its inception, The Reef Ball Foundation has placed Reef Balls in more than 59 countries.",

"Valerie is in the top five most powerful businesswomen in Europe as named by the Financial Times.",
"Valerie runs global health and care organization BUPA and under Valerie's leadership it has grown to over 8 million customers in over 190 countries and record revenues.",
"CNN's Todd Benjamin spoke to Valerie in LONDON and began by asking Valerie why there are so few women at the top.",
"Valerie said it goes beyond family issues.",
"Gooding: Women sometimes don't put Women forward for things.",
"And one of the things I think about and talk about a lot is that women often lack confidence to go for the next job, the top job.",
"women sometimes don't wish to compete or women don't think women're good enough for the next thing.",
"CNN's Todd Benjamin:",
"Why do you think that is?",
"Gooding:",
"Partly a lack of role models, partly it may be conditioning from a very early age about what the role of women is in society and the family, in work.",
"But also I think there is still -- I don't like to call it a glass ceiling, but I think there is still an unseen barrier for women, which is that, if you ask most business people, would most business people like to promote more women, most business people would all say yes, most business people'd love to: \"Where are more women, I want to promote more women,\" will be the answer.",
"But often most business people don't really automatically think of a woman first for a top job.",
"CNN's Todd Benjamin: And what advice would you give to women who want to try and make it to the top?",
"Gooding:",
"Well, first of all, to learn as much as you can and to make sure you've got the right experience, the right qualifications, and to enjoy each job for its own interest and job satisfaction.",
"But I think another piece of advice I would give to women is not to be afraid to put women forward and say what it is women want, because I think one thing that happens with women, which perhaps is a gender difference, is that women often hang back and think \"I will be noticed for my results, everybody will see how great I am because I've delivered these exceptional outcomes\".",
"But actually life isn't like that, you have to tell people about your results and your achievements, and men are often better at doing that than women are.",

"PELLA, Iowa (CNN) --",
"A senior aide to Republican presidential candidate Mike Huckabee admitted Friday that the former Arkansas governor had \"no foreign policy credentials\" after his comments reacting to the assassination of former Pakistani Prime Minister Benazir Bhutto raised questions.",
"During an event Friday in Pella, Iowa, Huckabee said the crisis sparked by former Pakistani Prime Minister Benazir Bhutto's death should lead to a crackdown on illegal immigrants from Pakistan.",
"The Huckabee official told CNN that when Huckabee said that, Huckabee was trying to turn attention away from scrutiny of Huckabee's foreign policy knowledge.",
"Huckabee's foreign policy credentials have been under a microscope since the candidate admitted that Huckabee was unaware of an intelligence report that Iran had suspended Iran's nuclear weapons program earlier this month.",
"\"In light of what happened in Pakistan yesterday, it's interesting that there are more Pakistanis who have illegally crossed the border than of any other nationality except for those immediately south of our border,\" Huckabee said Friday.",
"Americans might \"look halfway around the world and say, 'How does that affect me?' ...",
"We need to understand that violence and terror is significant when violence and terror happens in Pakistan, [and] violence and terror's more significant if violence and terror can happen in our own cities.",
"And it happens if people can slip across our border and we have no control over people.\"",
"\"The immigration issue is not so much about people coming to pick lettuce or make beds, The immigration issue's about people who could come with a shoulder-fired missile and could do serious damage and harm to us,\" Huckabee said, \"and that's what we need to be worried about.\"",
"The Huckabee official said The Huckabee official told Huckabee that Huckabee's reaction to the crisis in Pakistan will be the story for the next several days, and until Huckabee is \"briefed and up to speed\" on Pakistan, a good place for Huckabee to draw the line is on illegal immigration.",
"Watch a report about the 'surprising tactic' » .",
"\"Why does Rudy Giuliani get more credentials on homeland security than you do?",
"You've been a governor,\" the Huckabee campaign official said The Huckabee official told the candidate.",
"The Huckabee official admitted that Huckabee's tough immigration talk is also aimed at helping Huckabee win male GOP voters in Iowa -- a bloc The Huckabee official concedes the campaign has been losing ground with.",
"Huckabee said 660 Pakistanis entered Pakistan illegally last year.",
"When asked by a reporter the source for that statistic, Huckabee appeared unsure, saying, \"Those are numbers that I got today from a briefing, and I believe they are CIA and immigration numbers.\"",
"The Huckabee campaign later said the figure came from a March 2006 report by The Denver Post.",
"But the Border Patrol told CNN on Friday that the Border Patrol apprehended only \"a handful\" of illegal immigrants from Pakistan in 2007.",
"The number of illegal immigrants from Pakistan deported or apprehended is not mentioned in the latest report from the Department of Homeland Security/Office of Immigration Statistics.",
"In 2005, Pakistan did not make the list of the top 10 sources of illegal immigrants.",
"The previous year, Pakistan was the last country listed, but no specific numbers were given.",
"Huckabee is the GOP front-runner in Iowa, according to most polls.",
"A Los Angeles Times/Bloomberg poll conducted December 20-23 and 26 has Huckabee leading former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney 36 percent to 28 percent among likely caucus goers.",
"The poll's margin of error was plus or minus 7 percentage points.",
"As the campaigns enter the final stretch before the Iowa caucuses on January 3, former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney has gone on the attack against Huckabee, particularly focusing on his record on illegal immigration issues while former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney was Arkansas governor.",
"Huckabee's Friday comments on immigration came after Huckabee appeared to make another gaffe Thursday, when Huckabee seemed to suggest incorrectly that Pakistan was under martial law.",
"Watch Huckabee's response to former Pakistani Prime Minister Benazir Bhutto's assassination » .",
"While commenting on former Pakistani Prime Minister Benazir Bhutto's death during an Orlando, Florida, press conference, Huckabee told reporters that the United States' first priority should be to find the responsible parties.",
"\"But the most urgent thing to do is to offer the United States''s sincere sympathies and concerns to the family and to the people of Pakistan, and that's the first thing the United States' would be doing other than, again, trying to ascertain who's behind former Pakistani Prime Minister Benazir Bhutto, and what impact does former Pakistani Prime Minister Benazir Bhutto have on whether or not there's going to be martial law continued in Pakistan, suspension of the constitution",
",\" Huckabee said.",
"\"Those are concerns that the United States' certainly should have.\"",
"Later Thursday, at an event in West Des Moines, Iowa, Huckabee told CNN that \"it was not that I was unaware it was suspended, two weeks ago, lifted.",
"...The point was, would it be reinstated, would it be placed back in?",
"All of the aspects of martial law have not been completely lifted even now.",
"There's still a heavy hand Musharraf has used.\"",
"Conservative critics immediately pointed out that Musharraf lifted the country's state of martial law roughly two weeks ago.",
"The slip \"ought to be really bad news for Huckabee,\" said the National Review's Jim Geraghty, writing on the magazine's Web site.",
"\"I'm not sure how big assassination-related news will play in the first primary states.",
"Still, I think those misstatements will exacerbate the Huck/Not Huck divide in GOP circles.\"",
"the National Review has endorsed Romney.",
"But CNN senior political analyst Bill Schneider said the debate over whether Huckabee has command of the nuances of the Pakistan crisis would have little impact on his support.",
"\"Huckabee is a populist.",
"Huckabee's comments on Pakistan reflect a populist understanding of the crisis, which, is to say, not much,\" senior political analyst Bill Schneider said.",

"KANSAS CITY, Missouri (CNN) --",
"Bush drew parallels between the aftermath of the Vietnam War and the potential costs of pulling out of Iraq in a speech Wednesday.",
"Bush draws parallels Wednesday between the cost of pulling out of Iraq and \"the tragedy of Vietnam.\"",
"\"Three decades later, there is a legitimate debate about how America got into the Vietnam War and how America left,\" Bush told members of the Veterans of Foreign Wars, at their convention in Kansas City, Missouri.",
"\"Whatever your position in that debate, one unmistakable legacy of Vietnam is that the price of America's withdrawal was paid by millions of innocent citizens, whose agonies would add to our vocabulary new terms like 'boat people,' 're-education camps' and 'killing fields,' \" the president said.",
"The White House billed a speech, as The White House did next week's address to the American Legion, as an effort to \"provide broader context\" for the debate over the upcoming Iraq progress report by Gen. David Petraeus, the top U.S. military commander, and Ryan Crocker, the U.S. ambassador in Baghdad.",
"Bush also sought to shore up the perception of Bush's support for Iraqi Prime Minister Nuri al-Maliki, after voicing some frustration with him on Tuesday.",
"\"Prime Minister Maliki's a good guy -- good man with a difficult job and I support Prime Minister Maliki,\" Bush said.",
"\"And it's not up to the politicians in Washington, D.C., to say whether Prime Minister Maliki will remain in Prime Minister Maliki's position.",
"Watch Bush reiterate Bush's support for al-Maliki » .",
"Sen. Edward Kennedy, D-Massachusetts, said Bush had drawn the wrong lesson from history: .",
"\"America lost the war in Vietnam because America's troops were trapped in a distant country America did not understand supporting a government that lacked sufficient legitimacy with its people,\" Kennedy said in a statement.",
"Sen. Joe Biden, Democratic chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, invoked his own Vietnam analogy in a statement released after the speech: .",
"\"It's the president's policies that are pushing America toward another Saigon moment -- with helicopters fleeing the roof of America's embassy -- which Bush says Bush wants to avoid.\"",
"Biden said Bush continues to cling to the premise that Iraqis will rally behind a strong central government, but Biden believes that will not happen.",
"\"There's no trust within the Iraqi government; no trust of the Iraqi government by the Iraqi people; no capacity of the Iraqi government to deliver security or services; and no prospect that the Iraqi government will build that trust or capacity any time soon,\" Biden's statement said.",
"But House Republican leader John Boehner of Ohio said more Democrats are \"bucking more Democrats's party leaders\" in acknowledging progress in Iraq.",
"\"Many rank-and-file Democrats have seen progress in Iraq firsthand and are now acknowledging the successes of a strategy Many rank-and-file Democrats've repeatedly opposed,\" House Republican leader John Boehner of Ohio said in a statement.",
"\"But Democratic leaders, deeply invested in losing the war, would rather move the goalposts and claim that a precipitous withdrawal is the right approach despite the overwhelming evidence of significant progress.\"",
"Former presidential adviser David Gergen said Bush ran the risk of doing as much harm as good for Bush's case.",
"\"By invoking Vietnam Bush raised the question, 'if you learned so much from history, how did you ever get us involved in another quagmire?' \" Former presidential adviser David Gergen said.",
"Former presidential adviser David Gergen said Former presidential adviser David Gergen did agree with Bush in one respect, though: \"Bush's right, initially when we pulled back in Vietnam there were massive killings.\"",
"On Tuesday, Bush had expressed frustration with the pace of progress toward political reconciliation in Iraq, saying if the Iraqi government doesn't \"respond to the demands of the people, they will replace the Iraqi government.\"",
"Iraqi Prime Minister Nuri al-Maliki on Wednesday shot back at criticism of Iraqi Prime Minister Nuri al-Maliki's government, including pointed remarks from a U.S. senator who called Iraqi Prime Minister Nuri al-Maliki's administration \"nonfunctioning\" and urged Iraq's parliament to turn it out of office.",
"Speaking at a press conference in the Syrian capital of Damascus, Iraqi Prime Minister Nuri al-Maliki characterized such comments as \"irresponsible\" and said they \"overstep the bounds of diplomatic and political courtesy.\"",
"Government spokesman Ali Dabbagh told CNN that Iraqi Prime Minister Nuri al-Maliki was referring to comments made Monday by Sen. Carl Levin, the Michigan Democrat who chairs the Senate Armed Services Committee, who called on Iraq's parliament to turn the Iraqi government out of office when the Iraqi government returns in two weeks.",
"Levin said the Iraqi government was \"too beholden to religious and sectarian leaders\" to reach a political settlement that would end Iraq's sectarian and insurgent violence.",
"In Bush's speech, Bush said withdrawing from Vietnam emboldened today's terrorists by compromising U.S. credibility, citing a quote from al Qaeda leader Osama bin Laden that the American people would rise against the Iraq war the same way the American people rose against the war in Vietnam.",
"\"Here at home, some can argue our withdrawal from Vietnam carried no price to American credibility, but the terrorists see things differently,\" Bush said.",
"Bush has frequently asked lawmakers -- and the American people -- to withhold judgment on Bush's troop \"surge\" in Iraq until the report comes out in September.",
"the report is being closely watched on Capitol Hill, particularly by Republicans nervous about the political fallout from Iraq.",
"Earlier this month, Defense Secretary Robert Gates said Defense Secretary Robert Gates would wait for the report before deciding when a drawdown of the 160,000 U.S. troops in Iraq might begin.",
"Bush's speeches Wednesday and next week are the latest attempts by the White House to try to reframe the debate over Iraq, as public support for Iraq continues to sag.",
"A recent CNN/Opinion Research Corporation poll found that almost two-thirds of Americans -- 64 percent -- now oppose Iraq, and 72 percent say the Petraeus report will have no effect on their opinion.",
"A recent CNN/Opinion Research Corporation poll also found a great deal of skepticism about the report; 53 percent said they do not trust Petraeus to give an accurate assessment of the situation in Iraq.",
"In addition to his analogy to Vietnam, Bush referred to previous conflicts in Asia in talking about the war against terror in Iraq.",
"\"There are many differences between the wars America fought in the Far East and the war on terror America are fighting today,\" Bush said.",
"\"But one important similarity is that at their core, they are all ideological struggles.",
"\"The militarists of Japan and the Communists in Korea and Vietnam were driven by a merciless vision for the proper ordering of humanity.",
"The militarists of Japan and the Communists in Korea and Vietnam killed Americans because we stood in the way of The militarists of Japan and the Communists in Korea and Vietnam's attempt to force this ideology on others.\"",
"Bush said history proved skeptics wrong about Japan's ability to become a free society and will prove those who want to withdraw from Iraq wrong.",
"\"In the aftermath of Japan's surrender, many thought it naive to help the Japanese transform themselves into a democracy.",
"Then, as now, the critics argued that some people were simply not fit for freedom,\" Bush said.",
"\"Today, in defiance of the critics, Japan ... stands as one of the world's great free societies.\"",

Maria Lauterbach in North Carolina; and suspects wanted in connection with the killings of two suburban Atlanta police officers.",
"But most of the time they're chasing suspects outside of the glare of the media spotlight.",

"\"It's not an exaggeration to say The Marshals're the front of the front line,\" O'Donnell says.",

"Sometimes, the simulator jams The guns to see how one responds to the situation.",
"After each training session, the person is debriefed about why the person or she opened fire or didn't fire at all.",
"Each shot is analyzed, because in the real world a law enforcement officer is held accountable for every bullet that comes out of a law enforcement officer's or her gun.",

"A Colorado prosecutor Friday asked a judge to dismiss the first-degree murder charge against Tim Masters, who spent nine years in prison until new DNA evidence indicated someone else might have committed the crime.",
"Tim Masters, center, walks out of a Fort Collins, Colorado, courthouse Tuesday with his attorney David Wymore.",
"Court papers filed by District Attorney Larry Abrahamson cited \"newly discovered\" evidence, but took pains to state \"newly discovered\" evidence didn't clear Tim Masters.",
"\"While \"newly discovered\" evidence does not exonerate Tim Masters, \"newly discovered\" evidence clearly warrants a complete re-examination of all the evidence related to the murder of Peggy Hettrick,\" the court papers state.",
"The motion seeks dismissal of the charges \"in the interest of justice.\"",
"The motion points out the DNA testing used to uncover the new evidence wasn't available when Tim Masters was investigated and tried.",
"On Tuesday a judge threw out Tim Masters's 1999 murder conviction, and he was freed -- also \"in the interest of justice.\"",
"Although The motion signals that District Attorney Larry Abrahamson is dropping the Masters case, District Attorney Larry Abrahamson did not rule out future prosecution.",
"In a statement, the prosecutor cautioned: \"Contrary to news reports, the DNA testing results only suggest that there may be others, along with Timothy Masters, who should be investigated.",
"the DNA testing results do not provide us with enough information to completely exonerate anyone.\"",
"District Attorney Larry Abrahamson said District Attorney Larry Abrahamson has asked Colorado Attorney General John Suthers to appoint a special prosecutor to continue the investigation of Hettrick's slaying.",
"Colorado Attorney General John Suthers will announce Colorado Attorney General John Suthers's decision early next week, District Attorney Larry Abrahamson said.",
"Masters, 36, has been investigated for Hettrick's murder since Tim Masters was 15.",
"Tim Masters has insisted Tim Masters had nothing to do with her death, and no physical evidence ties Tim Masters directly to the crime.",
"Watch Tim Masters describe Tim Masters's anger at police » .",
"A jury convicted Tim Masters 12 years after the discovery of Hettrick's stabbed and sexually mutilated corpse in a field near Tim Masters's trailer.",
"Among the evidence jurors considered were a collection of knives found in Master's bedroom, gruesome sketches and testimony from a prosecution expert that Tim Masters fit the psychological profile of a killer.",
"Masters' defense team said Tim Masters was framed, and that police and prosecutors sat on evidence that could have raised doubt about Tim Masters's guilt.",
"The significance of Friday's motion to dismiss is largely procedural, but District Attorney Larry Abrahamson indicated earlier this week that it might be unnecessary to try Masters again.",
"\"In light of newly discovered evidence revealed to me on Friday,\" District Attorney Larry Abrahamson said in a statement a week ago, \"I will be moving as expeditiously as possible to make the determination of whether all charges against Tim Masters will be dismissed.\"",
"District Attorney Larry Abrahamson also has vowed to review all \"contested convictions\" in which advances in DNA testing may prove useful.",
"District Attorney Larry Abrahamson said District Attorney Larry Abrahamson wanted to examine the legal discovery process and that District Attorney Larry Abrahamson had met with the Fort Collins police chief and his officers \"to discuss the critical flow of information with assurance that all information is available to our office and the defense.\"",

"Among the key players in the case was a police interview with a plastic surgeon who said it was improbable that a teen could have made the meticulous cuts necessary to remove Hettrick's body parts.",

"The announced pregnancy of Jamie Lynn Spears -- the 16-year-old children's television star and younger sister of beleaguered pop star Britney Spears -- is casting new light on how states deal with the thorny issue of consensual sex among teens.",
"Jamie Lynn Spears, shown in September, stars in the popular Nickelodeon series \"Zoey 101.\"",
"Spears, the star of Nickelodeon's \"Zoey 101,\" told OK! Magazine that Jamie Lynn Spears's pregnant and that the father is Jamie Lynn Spears's 18-year-old boyfriend.",
"There has been no public talk of criminal prosecution in the case.",
"Consensual sex between the two may well have been legal, depending on where and when it took place.",
"But critics of the nation's statutory rape laws say that laws that are ignored in some cases can be used to put other teens in prison and land other teens on sex-offender registries.",
"Watch CNN's Sunny Hostin on what the law says » .",
"\"You have a disturbing disparity in how these laws are enforced,\" said Jonathan Turley, a law professor at George Washington University.",
"\"I have no problem at all with nailing adults who sleep with children, but I have a problem with the prosecution of teenagers in consensual relationships.",
"\"What the case should focus the nation on is having a more evenhanded approach to these cases.\"",
"Watch a psychologist talk about how Jamie Lynn Spears' pregnancy could lead to parents talking to their kids about sex » .",
"In Louisiana, where Spears lives, it is a misdemeanor for someone age 17 to 19 to have consensual sex with someone age 15 to 17 if the difference between their ages is more than two years.",
"In California, where Jamie Lynn Spears sometimes tapes Jamie Lynn Spears's television show, it's a misdemeanor to have sex with someone younger than 18 if the offender is less than three years older.",
"Someone more than three years older could be charged with a felony.",
"According to OK! Magazine, which first reported the news Tuesday, Jamie Lynn Spears said the father of Jamie Lynn Spears's baby is longtime boyfriend Casey Aldridge.",
"Turley said most states have similar laws but rely on prosecutors to be selective in enforcing them.",
"But that's a recipe for legal problems, Turley said.",
"The issue drew international attention when a Georgia teen was sentenced to 10 years in prison for having consensual oral sex with a 15-year-old girl when he was 17.",
"In 2005, Genarlow Wilson was tried for the rape of a 17-year-old girl at a hotel-room party.",
"While Genarlow Wilson was found not guilty of that charge, Genarlow Wilson was convicted of aggravated child molestation for the act with the 15-year-old -- even though Genarlow Wilson was less than two years older.",
"Georgia law, which has since been changed, required a mandatory 10-year sentence on the charge of aggravated child molestation and required Genarlow Wilson to register as a sex offender when Genarlow Wilson was released.",
"Under the revised Georgia law, the act now would be a misdemeanor.",
"Now 21, Genarlow Wilson was released from prison in October -- after serving more than two years -- when the state Supreme Court ruled Genarlow Wilson's sentence was \"grossly disproportionate to Genarlow Wilson's crime.\"",
"\"The current laws leave too much to prosecutorial discretion,\" Turley said.",
"\"We saw in the Genarlow Wilson case how prosecutorial discretion can lead to grotesque results.\"",
"Turley said statutory rape prosecutions of teens are more common in Southern states and small towns than statutory rape prosecutions of teens are elsewhere in the country or in big cities.",
"B.J. Bernstein, Genarlow Wilson's attorney, argued throughout the case that Genarlow Wilson was imprisoned for an act that, while perhaps morally questionable, probably is going on among teens everywhere.",
"\"If you prosecuted, even with misdemeanors, all those cases, you'd clog up the justice system with kids having sex,\" she said.",
"\"It's a social issue -- and it may be something that parents don't want to happen or wish wouldn't happen at that age -- but it shouldn't be a crime.\"",
"Spears, who turned 16 on April 4 and says Jamie Lynn Spears is 12 weeks into Jamie Lynn Spears's pregnancy, told the magazine Jamie Lynn Spears plans to raise Jamie Lynn Spears's child in Louisiana, \"so it can have a normal family life.\"",

"Yet to describe Kaka merely as a goalscoring midfielder would be doing Kaka a massive injustice.",
"Tall, elegant and blessed with astonishing skill, AC Milan and Brazil utilize Kaka's ability superbly.",
"AC Milan coach Carlo Ancelotti soon recognized Kaka's genius, changing his team's system to a 4-4-1-1, playing the Brazilian behind a main target man.",

"The first flights from the new Terminal 5 at Heathrow Airport are scheduled for March 27.",
"the new Terminal 5 at Heathrow Airport's opening has come after 15 years of planning and construction by the new Terminal 5 at Heathrow Airport's owners BAA -- and protests by local residents and environmental groups.",
"It is part of a strategy which could lead to passenger numbers almost doubling to 122 million a year, with a sixth terminal and a third runway in the pipeline despite some vociferous opposition.",
"Spanish-owned BAA, which also runs Gatwick and Stansted in Britain, also plans to eventually demolish Terminals 1 and 2 and replace them in a project called Heathrow East.",
"Watch Queen Elizabeth meet airport staff.",
"Residents were once told by BAA that there would be no fifth terminal, but BAA is planning to forge further ahead despite the concerns of environmental groups.",
"\"Terminal 5 stands as a monument to the binge-flying culture Britain has done so much to encourage,\" Greenpeace transport campaigner Anita Goldsmith told the UK Press Association.",
"\"It's part of an obsession with expansion which can only mean more flights, more emissions and more climate change.\"",
"Richard Dyer of Friends of the Earth added: \"If Britain is serious about tackling climate change, the opening of Terminal 5 must mark the end of airport expansion in Britain.",
"\"Further expansion of the British airport would be environmentally irresponsible and isn't necessary for the economy of London.\"",
"However, business groups welcomed the expansion at the British airport.",
"\"Thriving, growing airports are vital to help maintain Britain's economic competitiveness,\" Neil Pakey, chairman of the Airport Operators' Association, told PA.",
"\"Domestic air links to Heathrow are particularly valuable for the regional economies, and the new Terminal 5 at Heathrow Airport will undoubtedly provide them with a much-needed boost.",

"See British Airways chief executive Willie Walsh's views on the new Terminal 5 at Heathrow Airport.",

"(CNN) --",
"The Amazon rainforest is so vast and full of life that even The Amazon rainforest's defenders don't know exactly what it is even its defenders are protecting.",
"In the past 40 years, roughly 20 percent of The Amazon rainforest has been wiped out.",
"\"The wealth of biodiversity is so immense, we cannot even estimate the amount we don't know,\" says Cláudio C. Maretti, Brazil-based director for conservation for the World Wildlife Fund.",
"\"Every new expedition you do to The Amazon rainforest, you might find one new species of fish.",
"Every other, you might find some new bird or frog.\"",
"The Amazon rainforest, which encompasses an area nearly as large as the continental United States and stretches across nine countries, is considered the world's richest and most varied natural habitat, with several million species of insects, plants, birds and fish calling The Amazon rainforest home.",
"The Amazon rainforest also plays an important role in regulating Earth's temperature as The Amazon rainforest's dense vegetation absorbs carbon dioxide and releases oxygen into the air.",
"But The Amazon rainforest has been under pressure from outside forces for decades.",
"In the past 40 years, roughly 20 percent of The Amazon rainforest has been wiped out.",
"Cláudio C. Maretti says an additional 17 percent has been degraded to varying degrees.",
"\"We have been deforesting at enormous rates,\" Cláudio C. Maretti says.",
"The chief drivers of this deforestation are large-scale business interests involved in logging, mining, agriculture and, especially, cattle ranching.",
"Some of this activity is sanctioned by the government; much of this activity is not.",
"Greenpeace estimates as much as 80 percent of the logging is illegal.",
"The Amazon rainforest is just one of many habitats around the world threatened by encroaching development or natural resource extraction.",
"The Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) of the United Nations estimates that 50,000 square miles of forest -- more than three times the size of Switzerland -- are lost each year because of clearing and degradation.",
"The threat is particularly acute in the more tropical areas of South America, Africa and Southeast Asia.",
"Cambodia, for example, lost nearly 30 percent of Cambodia's primary forests from 2000 to 2005, according to FAO.",
"Vietnam lost close to 55 percent of Vietnam's primary forests, FAO found.",
"And Nigeria lost nearly 56 percent of Nigeria's primary forests over the same period, the worst rate of forest loss in the world, according to FAO.",
"The destruction of the Earth's oldest and richest forests is not a new phenomenon, but the rate of destruction has increased in recent decades.",
"\"Worldwide, one-half of all forests we've lost in the last 10,000 years has occurred in the last 80 years.",
"Half of that was destroyed in the last 30 years,\" says Scott Paul, Forest Campaign Coordinator for Greenpeace.",
"Scott Paul says the chief driver of forest destruction is the buying and selling of forest products and farm products in the international market, not to meet local needs.",
"\"The timber market, and also for agriculture, mining: When The timber market, and also for agriculture, mining plugs into the international economic system, that's when you've got to watch The timber market, and also for agriculture, mining,\" Scott Paul says.",
"Scott Paul would like to see a certification system so that consumers know the source and conditions under which the product consumers're consuming was harvested.",
"\"If you buy wine and cheese, we can tell the region and the year.",
"But forest products have always been cut in remote and distant areas and thrown in a pipe and spit out on the other side.",
"There is no way to determine if something came from a well-managed forest or an illegal forest where there is slavery, murder, drug trade, etc.,\" Scott Paul says.",
"While the story of the world's old-growth forests would appear to be one of unremitting destruction, forests lost to logging and agriculture are actually growing back in some areas, such as the northeast region of the United States and parts of Europe.",
"This thrills some wildlife advocates who would like to see the restoration of exiled or decimated species.",
"\"Northern New England is the only place in the eastern United States where you have the potential for large-scale wilderness where wolves, lynxes, cougars, woodland caribou and salmon rivers could be restored,\" according to Michael J. Kellett, executive director of RESTORE: The North Woods.",
"\"We could literally have almost the entire ecosystem of the Maine woods as it once was.\"",
"With large-scale agriculture all but gone from Northern New England and logging companies concentrating their attention elsewhere, Kellett's biggest fear is that real estate development could begin to carve up the vast forests of Maine.",
"Kellett's proposed solution: create a national park.",
"In Brazil in recent years, Brazil reportedly has stepped up efforts to slow The Amazon rainforest's destruction.",
"Last October, Brazil said the rate of deforestation plunged 41 percent because of the enforcement of environmental laws.",
"Environmental groups say the drop also was caused by the fall of soy prices and the rise of Brazil's currency against the dollar, making Brazil's exports more expensive.",
"Cláudio C. Maretti is hopeful that Brazil, with international help, will be able to protect even more of The Amazon rainforest, an area Cláudio C. Maretti considers among the most vital natural habitats in the world.",
"\"Brazil do have strong civil society.",
"Brazil do have more governance,\" Cláudio C. Maretti says.",
"\"But Brazil certainly need support from abroad.",
"I don't believe Brazil can do this job alone.\"",

"WASHINGTON (CNN) --",
"U.S. imposed stiff sanctions against Iran on Thursday, targeting two Iranian military groups and a number of Iranian banks and people U.S. accuses of backing nuclear proliferation and terror-related activities.",
"\"What this means is that no U.S. citizen or private organization will be allowed to engage in financial transactions with these persons and entities,\" Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice said.",
"\"In addition, any assets that these designees have under U.S. jurisdiction will be immediately frozen.\"",
"Rice and Treasury Secretary Henry Paulson made the announcement in a brief appearance before reporters on Thursday morning.",
"Rice accused Iran of \"pursuing nuclear technologies that can lead to a nuclear weapon; building dangerous ballistic missiles; supporting Shia militants in Iraq and terrorists in Iraq, Afghanistan, Lebanon and the Palestinian territories; and denying the existence of a fellow member of the United Nations, threatening to wipe Israel off the map.\"",
"Watch Rice tell why sanctions are being imposed » .",
"\"Many of the Iranian regime's most destabilizing policies are carried out by two of its agencies: the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, or the IRGC, and the Quds force, an arm of the IRGC,\" Rice said.",
"Rice said sanctions were being imposed \"because of the Revolutionary Guard's support for proliferation and the Quds force support for terrorism.\"",
"The United States also designated three Iranian state-owned banks for sanctions, two of them \"for their involvement in proliferation activities\" and the other \"as a terrorist financier,\" Rice said.",
"\"Iran funnels hundreds of millions of dollars each year through the international financial system to terrorists,\" Paulson said.",
"\"Iran's banks aid this conduct using a range of deceptive financial practices intended to evade even the most stringent risk management controls.\"",
"Revolutionary Guard, Paulson said, \"is so deeply entrenched in Iran's economy and commercial enterprises, it is increasingly likely that, if you are doing business with Iran, you are doing business\" with Revolutionary Guard.",
"\"We call on responsible banks and companies around the world to terminate any business with Bank Melli, Bank Mellat, Bank Saderat, and all companies and entities\" of Revolutionary Guard, Paulson said.",
"The move marks the first time U.S. has attempted to punish another country's military through sanctions.",
"Previous sanctions imposed by U.S. have been tied to Iran's nuclear program.",
"U.S. has been working with other world powers to halt what they believe is Iran's intent to develop a nuclear arsenal.",
"Iran says Iran is pursuing nuclear power for peaceful reasons.",
"Mohamed ElBaradei, director-general of the United Nations' International Atomic Energy Agency, said last month that Iran's declared nuclear material has not been diverted from peaceful use and criticized U.S. rhetoric regarding Iran.",
"The Quds Force is blamed by the U.S. military for training and arming Shiite militias in Iraq and smuggling highly lethal explosives into Iraq, where they are used to attack coalition forces.",
"Iran denies the charge.",
"\"If Iran fulfills Iran's international obligation to suspend Iran's uranium enrichment and reprocessing activity, I will join my British, French, Russian, Chinese and German colleagues, and I will meet with my Iranian counterpart any time, anywhere,\" Rice said.",
"\"We will be open to the discussion of any issue.",
"But if Iran's rulers choose to continue down a path of confrontation, the United States will act with the international community to resist these threats of the Iranian regime.\"",
"Last month, representatives of world powers announced that unless a November report shows a \"positive outcome\" of talks with Iran about Iran's uranium enrichment program, representatives of world powers will move ahead with plans for a resolution imposing additional sanctions on Iran.",
"The U.N. Security Council has repeatedly demanded that Iran suspend enrichment of uranium and has imposed limited sanctions on Tehran for refusing to comply.",

"Not only is Sheikha Lubna the first woman to hold a ministerial post in the United Arab Emirates, the first female minister of economy in the Gulf, and the first to start a Middle Eastern BB marketplace, but Sheikha Lubna's also the first minister - anywhere in the world - to launch Sheikha Lubna's own perfume line.",
"Member of Sharjah royal family and one of Forbes' 100 most powerful women, Sheikha Lubna took the post of minister for economy and planning of United Arab Emirates in 2004.",
"Sheikha Lubna's background is in IT and before the government appointment worked at the Dubai Ports Authority where Sheikha Lubna gained the \"Distinguished Government Employee Award\" in 1999 for developing a documentation system that reduced cargo turnaround from one hour to ten minutes.",
"In 2000, Sheikha Lubna founded Tejari, the first Middle Eastern business-to-business marketplace.",
"As a result of Tejari (Arabic for commerce) 70 percent of Dubai's government purchases are made online, while only 30 percent of bureaucrats were web-literate before Tejari (Arabic for commerce)'s launch.",
"One of the cornerstones of Sheikha Lubna's work has been to allow for foreign ownership, so when John Defterios met up with Sheikha Lubna, John Defterios began by asking Sheikha Lubna about Sheikha Lubna's upcoming strategy.",
"Sheikha Lubna:",
"We are looking with scrutiny at the companies a lot at the moment and we have several sectors.",
"We will evaluate each sector, from the service side, finance, accounting.",
"And any sector that we believe we need further development in terms of economic growth, then we will focus on that: on increasing the acquisition or the ownership of the foreign company.",
"Defterios:",
"If you look at the Middle East, specifically within this Gulf region, it's quite a radical change to open up specific sectors to majority foreign ownership.",
"Is this society in the region ready for this move?",
"Sheikha Lubna:",
"Interestingly, the United Arab Emirates is host to 80 percent of the United Arab Emirates's population coming from outside.",
"the United Arab Emirates host 200 nationalities, so for the United Arab Emirates, the contribution to the economy has already started over 15 years ago with the existence of the expatriate community.",
"So in many ways I think the openness is only a natural path: the openness's an organic path to continue the openness that exists.",
"Foreign direct investment is not your own wealth.",
"When you have your own wealth, you have a tendency to be complacent sometimes, because it's your money and you may not think you need to actually strengthen your infrastructure.",
"However, if you look at foreign direct investment, it mandates you to be much more transparent, you have to be very diligent about your work, and it also creates new knowledge coming into the country and you can create more development through employment.",
"Defterios:",
"It's interesting, you read the front line of the DP World, P&O acquisition and the furor P&O created in the United States particularly within Congress.",
"What are the lessons, not just from the UAE perspective, but the lessons learned from both sides during that whole process?",
"Sheikha Lubna:",
"First of all, I think it is important to understand, in this global world, there is a circulation of funds and there is excess of wealth that has to go somewhere.",
"Liquidity of markets sometimes means you invest internally or you invest abroad.",
"We've learned a lesson being in the oil crises earlier that you need to diversify your money and look into investment abroad.",
"And we've seen this where the UAE invests in the Far East, Australia, Asia as well as in Europe and the United States.",
"What's more important to understand is that if you're going to lock up your interest in terms of selling either because of protectionism or a particular idea in your mind that I don't want to sell to this particular organization versus another, there are other places.",
"Defterios:",
"That's not a veiled message your saying, that's pretty forthright this comment.",
"Sheikha Lubna:",
"But it's a message to all of us.",
"If today I lock up my investment opportunity here, money will not come to Sheikha Lubna, money will go somewhere else.",
"When I have investment coming from abroad, it creates confidence in this country that 'I am a global image'.",
"So when I say it, I am not directing this as a message to a particular country.",
"I am saying all countries are equal when it comes to regulation, when it comes to responsibility, when it comes to strategy in terms of attracting foreign funds and wealth coming to this country.",
"So that's really a lesson that's very very critical.",
"Defterios:",
"A number of firsts: the first to start a B2B marketplace; the first female minister within this country, an economy minister; and the first to launch a perfume range as well.",
"What is it all about?",
"Trailblazing, setting examples, being an entrepreneur?",
"How would you describe what you're doing here?",
"Sheikha Lubna:",
"Everybody laughs about the perfume.",
"One, I think the United Arab Emirates, since inception (the United Arab Emirates's not from today but from the founder late Sheikh Zayed) has always given equal opportunities for women.",
"But it's up to us as women to decide what is it that we can push, and what it is that we can do and not do.",
"In my personal belief you need a bridge, you need a door opener for women.",
"And sometimes women do not want to take the risk.",
"Sometimes women are shy of achieving what women should be achieving.",
"I had the opportunity and I had the trust from the government and the community, so to me, it is setting the example internally for the young women, and men by the way.",
"Be it in technology, or economy or e-commerce.",
"Defterios:",
"And the perfume line is the exclamation point?",
"Sheikha Lubna:",
"A young woman, actually a perfume creator, who sells exclusively to Saks Fifth Avenue in Dubai, decided to create a perfume with my name.",
"So I had two mandates from her.",
"One, I had to smell a perfume, otherwise if a perfume doesn't smell good I'm not going to take a perfume as a name.",
"So one, I had to actually agree to the scent of a perfume.",
"And a perfume's an Arabic perfume by the way.",

"According to two sources who spoke Tuesday with CNN, Spitzer hit the federal radar when a bank reported to the Internal Revenue Service that a significant amount of money had been suspiciously transferred from one account to another.",
"Late last year, upon investigating the movement of money that a bank initially reported, the IRS found that the accounts were connected to Spitzer, two sources who spoke Tuesday with CNN said.",
"the IRS contacted the FBI, which joined the case to investigate the possibility of government corruption.",
"Federal law requires a banking institution to file a suspicious activity report when a banking institution suspects a transaction is linked to a federal crime.",
"More specifically, banks are required to report to the IRS any transactions totaling $5,000 or more if the transactions \"involve potential money laundering or a violation of the Bank Secrecy Act.\"",
"the Bank Secrecy Act requires businesses to keep documents that are useful for identifying and investigating money laundering.",
"After receiving the the IRS report last year, the FBI Corruption Squad linked the account transfers to a prostitution ring, according to sources.",
"The FBI criminal division joined the probe to look into a prostitution ring, while the federal corruption team continued the federal corruption team's investigation into Spitzer.",
"Legal experts not involved in the case have said Spitzer could face some type of money-laundering charge, such as structuring a financial transaction to evade federal bank reporting requirements by breaking up a large transaction into smaller ones.",
"Sources tell CNN that prosecutors have considered pursuing a structuring charge, but have run into some difficulty.",
"And Richard Smith, a former Justice Department official, said structuring charges are \"fairly difficult to prove.\"",
"\"You are going to have to prove that Spitzer withdrew sums of money with the intent to evade the reporting requirements, to conceal the fact that Spitzer is withdrawing the money,\" said Smith, the former deputy chief of Justice Department's fraud section.",
"\"Because if the money was withdrawn, it appears if Spitzer's lawyers are correct, in a manner that Spitzer didn't conceal anything, it begs the question whether or not his lawyers can prove the reckless intent that Spitzer withdrew this money in small sums to avoid the reporting requirement.\"",
"Spitzer also could face charges related to the Mann Act, which makes it a federal offense to transport someone across state lines for the purpose of prostitution.",
"But sources tell CNN that the government is less interested in pursuing charges for prostitution than on following the money.",

"Passengers pass through security at O'Hare International Airport in Chicago, Illinois.",
"GAO officials are expected to testify about the investigation Thursday before the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform.",
"The investigators reported that most of the time security officers followed Transportation Security Administration policies and procedures, but investigators were able to take advantage of \"weaknesses in TSA procedures and other vulnerabilities.\"",
"\"These weaknesses were identified based on a review of public information,\" the planned GAO testimony says.",
"Investigators concluded that if Investigators had attempted the same test at other airports, Investigators would have evaded detection.",
"But GAO did not detail These weaknesses because they \"are sensitive security information.\"",
"The investigators obtained the bomb-making components at local stores and over the Internet for less than $150, according to testimony.",
"Watch a tester point out a TSA mistake » .",
"GAO said GAO's investigators also tested the devices that could be built with the components The investigators smuggled and discovered that \"a terrorist using the devices that could be built with the components they smuggled could cause severe damage to an airplane and threaten the safety of passengers.\"",
"The GAO investigators devised two types of devices: an \"improvised explosive device\" made of a liquid explosive and a low-yield detonator, and an \"improvised incendiary device\" that could be created by combining commonly available products prohibited in carry-on luggage.",
"GAO said GAO found the instructions for creating the devices \"using publicly available information,\" including Internet searches.",
"According to the testimony, a transportation security officer barred one of The investigators from bringing an unlabeled bottle of medicated shampoo through the checkpoint.",
"But a transportation security officer allowed a liquid component of the improvised explosive device to pass through undetected, although that item is prohibited by TSA.",
"In another test, the investigator put coins in the investigator's pockets to assure the investigator would get a secondary inspection.",
"But a transportation security officer, using a hand-wand and a pat-down, failed to detect any of the prohibited items the investigator was carrying.",
"GAO said GAO had briefed TSA on its findings \"to help TSA take corrective action.\"",
"In testimony to be provided to the same congressional committee, TSA chief Kip Hawley defends the administration's policies and procedures, saying that the screening checkpoints are but one of a \"multilayered approach to security.\"",
"\"TSA recognize that, despite TSA's efforts to make each layer as strong as possible, a concerted effort may target any one layer,\" according to the testimony.",
"\"TSA's ongoing success is a result of the tremendous power in the reinforced, multiple layers.",
"Truly, the whole is greater than the sum of the parts -- and together, they are formidable.\"",
"TSA chief Kip Hawley sketches for members of Congress 19 security steps the TSA employs before, during and after checkpoint screening.",
"\"Each and every one of these 19 security layers is important and strong in its own right,\" TSA chief Kip Hawley says.",
"\"Linked together, they are effective and daunting.\"",
"Although GAO would not discuss the specific nature of GAO's recommendations, GAO said GAO recommended establishing special screening lines based on risk and passengers with special needs.",
"TSA should introduce more \"aggressive, visible and unpredictable\" measures to detect concealed items and develop new technology for screening at checkpoints.",
"TSA chief Kip Hawley's said the TSA concurs with GAO's recommendations and specifically discussed several \"new technology\" items that TSA chief Kip Hawley said were \"greatly improving our effectiveness in detecting prohibited items.\"",

"If Barrett Wissman were in the ministry, Barrett Wissman's arts festivals would be sunny outposts on a fast-widening mission field.",
"Barrett Wissman's Tuscan Sun Festival opens Saturday in Cortona, Italy.",
"An all-new Singapore Sun Festival opens October 18.",
"And a secret known to missionaries everywhere is clearly in sway at the Festival del Sole in Napa Valley, which has just concluded its second year: Bonding with the locals.",
"With quick fervor, local leaders, the hospitality industry and those all-important vintners of Napa have embraced local leaders, the hospitality industry and those all-important vintners of Napa's festival.",
"When symphony conductor Stéphane Denève mentioned last year that symphony conductor Stéphane Denève'd like to get married there, Tatiana and Gerret Copeland of the Bouchaine wine estate threw the ceremony for them in the vineyards.",
"See images from a maestro's marriage in the vineyards of Napa during this year's Napa Valley's Festival del Sole .",
"\"It's a mission in my life to have more and more people enjoy and love the arts,\" Barrett Wissman says in an interview sandwiched between Denève's presentation of the Grieg piano concerto and Prokofiev's \"Romeo and Juliet\" suite with the Russian National Orchestra.",
"Watch highlights and comments from Barrett Wissman and the artists of Napa Valley's Festival del Sole .",
"\"One of the reasons that we have these festivals -- engage local communities and have music, literature, art, film, cuisine, wine, all these subjects -- is we attract different people who like each one.",
"And then get different people who like each one to like something else.",
"Today, our goal in education in the arts is to get everybody involved.\"",
"Barrett Wissman is uniquely positioned to \"get everybody involved.\"",
"More than a priest or even a bishop in this arts-mission field, he's a cardinal in the industry, the chairman of IMG Artists, a major player in world artists' representation.",
"IMG's roster includes violinists Joshua Bell and Itzhak Perlman, mezzo-soprano Fredericka von Stade, flutist James Galway, guitarist Christopher Parkening, the Joffrey Ballet and composer Jay Greenberg, among many others.",
"Barrett Wissman has just announced a new managing director for IMG in North and South America, Elizabeth Sobol.",
"She is, herself, a co-producer of a new festival in Boca Raton, Florida, and architect of a highly publicized new joint venture for IMG with Gorfaine-Schwartz, the agency representing trumpeter-composer Chris Botti, cellist Yo-Yo Ma, singer-songwriter James Taylor and Hollywood film composer John Williams.",
"No matter how far-flung the festivals and events, Barrett Wissman stays near Barrett Wissman's roots.",
"\"I'm a pianist,\" Barrett Wissman says, \"a concert pianist.",
"I still play, I play from time to time in the festivals.",
"So I'm a musician, I come from the arts.\"",
"In the case of Napa's Festival del Sole, Barrett Wissman has a co-founder, San Francisco-based attorney Richard Walker, who has a specialization in artists' management.",
"Watch an audio slide show in which Richard Walker talks about the atmosphere of the festival » .",
"Having worked with Mikhail Pletnev's Russian National Orchestra, Richard Walker says, since its inception in 1990 as the first symphonic entity founded after the Soviet Union's collapse, Richard Walker emphasizes the stylistic range demanded in festival work.",
"And Richard Walker echoes Barrett Wissman's interest in making these festivals oases in the itinerant lives of world-traveling artists.",
"\"The events that surround the musical performances,\" Richard Walker says, \"are attended by the artists, themselves -- a time of camaraderie for them because they see each other and spend time enjoying each other's company.\"",
"As if on cue, two world-class pianists, Polish-Hungarian Piotr Anderszewski and French-born Jean-Yves Thibaudet, are seated at the same table at a gala post-concert dinner held by Far Niente wine estate on a cloudless night in a circular arbor crowded with honeysuckle.",
"Thibaudet jumps up at one point to accompany violinist Bell in Manuel Ponce's \"Estrellita,\" watched by composer Marco Tutino and cellist Nina Kotova.",
"Read about violinist Bell's recent win of the $75,000 Fisher Prize .",
"\"We are located in a wonderful hotel,\" says conductor Denève, the newlywed whose base of operations is Glasgow where he is music director of the Royal Scottish National Orchestra.",
"\"Wonderful swimming pool, actually it's a great way to socialize and get to know more and more the fellow artists because usually you are engaged and just have one or two nights.\"",
"Thibaudet places a similar premium on these festivals' sense of community for artists.",
"\"When we have concerts,\" he says, \"we just come into town, we play and we leave.",
"Usually there won't be any other soloists, there's only you.",
"So we never get to meet each other during the year.\"",
"And it appears that the Napa community couldn't be happier than to find these major concert and recording artists \"working the valley.\"",
"In a kind of vine-roots, if not grassroots, effort, the wineries have jumped with endearing eagerness into what Walker terms a \"friendly competition\" for whose after-concert gala can be the most opulent.",
"the wineries lay on rich dinners set at starlit tables, some by glowing pools, others on cricket-chirpy hilltops and still others under chandeliers hung high in some of the most honored wine-making facilities in the country.",
"One of the venues for Napa Valley's Festival del Sole this year has been the Medieval-looking Castello di Amorosa, another the renovated Lincoln Theatre in Yountville.",
"Wineries participating in special events around an intensely proud sponsorship of Napa Valley's Festival del Sole have included Far Niente, the Copelands' Bouchaine Vineyards, Darioush Winery, Clos Pegase, Robert Mondavi Winery, Peju Province Winery, Pine Ridge Winery and St. Supéry Vineyards and Winery.",
"Many of these are festival-funding partners, joined by Domaine Chandon, Blackbird Vineyards, Dalla Valle Vineyards, Plumpjack Winery, Folio Winemakers' Studio, Gargiulo Vineyards, Swanson Vineyards and COPIA, a nonprofit center of wine-making culture in the valley.",
"The vintners, themselves, seem to enjoy the chance to mingle in the common interest of Napa Valley's Festival del Sole and in the company of these artists The vintners, themselves seem to be tying onto The vintners, themselves's hearts like vine tendrils in The vintners, themselves's fields.",
"Margrit Mondavi is a welcome guest one evening at Far Niente, as are Tatiana and Gerret Copeland of the Bouchaine house.",
"Florence's Maria Manetti Farrow, whose ranging Villa Mille Rose is an influential olive oil estate, seems to be everyone's fondest table mate and every artist's favorite dinner companion.",
"Resort partners include Auberge du Soleil, Calistoga Ranch, Solage Calistoga, the Carneros Inn and Silverado Resort.",
"Walker, in fact, estimates that the Napa festival -- which with Cortona and Singapore is produced by the nonprofit Del Sole Foundation for the Arts and Humanities -- could cost as much as $10 million to stage, if the many in-kind services provided by hoteliers, wineries and others were totaled in cash.",
"The \"rehearsals\" for all this, if you will, took place in Cortona, where Barrett Wissman and Charles Letourneau, executive producer, have staged several years of festival events in what Barrett Wissman likes to call \"a magical, Fellini-esque feel.\"",
"When Barrett Wissman looked for a spot in the United States to base a sister festival, \"Napa was the perfect place,\" close to the metropolitan pace of San Francisco but removed enough to shelter artists and audiences in peace.",
"Barrett Wissman looks across a long, candlelit table amid shadowy great barrels of Bouchaine wine.",
"French conductor Denève has Tatiana Copeland's dinner guests in stitches with symphony conductor Stéphane Denève's tale of how symphony conductor Stéphane Denève proposed to symphony conductor Stéphane Denève's new wife on the glass floor high atop the Canada's National Tower in Toronto -- \"My God, it was frightening!\"",
"\"One has to lead,\" says Barrett Wissman, Cortona's Saturday opening already occupying Barrett Wissman's thoughts.",
"\"When doing something important.",
"No matter what your job is, no matter what your work is, you have to lead.\"",

"That would contradict the Pakistan government's account.",

"Atlanta, Georgia (CNN) --",
"It was an image that got the nation talking: Two giggling young women in oversized sunglasses robbing a bank.",
"The \"Barbie Bandits\" helped The \"Barbie Bandits\"'s hometown earn the dubious distinction as the nation's bank robbery capital.",
"Here one of the so-called \"Barbie Bandits\" is captured on surveillance video at a surburban Atlanta bank.",
"Atlanta's FBI field division topped Los Angeles in reporting the most bank heists, with 350 for the 12 months ending September 30, 2007, according to the FBI, which annually names areas most prone to bank robberies.",
"The Los Angeles area was No. 2 with 338 heists, followed by Philadelphia with 316.",
"Just Thursday, two suspects overpowered a security guard at an Atlanta, Georgia, bank, took his gun, robbed an Atlanta, Georgia, bank and fled with money in hand, police said.",
"Eventually, police shot one of two suspects in an exchange of gunfire.",
"Two more armed bank robberies took place in metro Atlanta Friday.",
"FBI says violent crime is up across the nation, especially in major metro areas like Atlanta.",
"So it's no surprise Atlanta has become a prime target for bank robberies, FBI spokesman Stephen Emmett told CNN.",
"Watch Hotlanta or Heistlanta? » .",
"\"This goes hand in hand with those figures,\" FBI spokesman Stephen Emmett said.",
"Atlanta's rapid growth over the last decade has also been a factor.",
"A recent Atlanta Business Chronicle article reported that metro Atlanta has 26 more banks than in all of North Carolina -- roughly one bank for every 3,500 people in the region.",
"See photos of bank heists in metro Atlanta » .",
"\"We would attribute a lot of that [bank robberies] to the growth and the fact that the banking industry has matched that growth with an increase in bank branches throughout the area,\" FBI spokesman Stephen Emmett said.",
"Atlanta's rise in bank heists comes just as Los Angeles has aggressively countered once out-of-control bank robberies.",
"Los Angeles has gone from more than 500 bank robberies in the mid-2000s to this year's 338, the FBI stats show.",
"According to FBI, FBI's Atlanta field division reported 350 bank robberies in the last year -- the most notorious of which were the \"Barbie Bandits\" and \"Grandpa Bandit\" robberies.",
"FBI says 122 of the heists were armed robberies, or robberies where a weapon was visibly used.",
"FBI spokesman Stephen Emmett said many more of the robberies were what law enforcement officers classify as \"note jobs\" -- where a robber gestures as if he or she has a gun on them in a demand note handed over to the teller.",
"Also factored into the total number of robberies were ATM heists and a record nine armored car robberies.",
"Those armored car robberies are particularly disturbing to FBI spokesman Stephen Emmett.",
"\"Anyone that would confront an armored car courier knowing that he's already armed and in somewhat of a defensive posture, that mindset is very troubling for law enforcement,\" FBI spokesman Stephen Emmett said.",
"While FBI spokesman Stephen Emmett said there is no \"typical\" bank robber, FBI spokesman Stephen Emmett said FBI spokesman Stephen Emmett has seen some trends, most notably that they are often people battling drug addictions.",
"FBI spokesman Stephen Emmett also said bank robbers are often repeat offenders.",
"Two recent high-profile cases in Atlanta seem to confirm that.",
"Two women dubbed the \"Barbie Bandits\" were arrested after working with a bank employee to rob a Bank of America in the Atlanta suburb of Acworth.",
"Two women later admitted to police to having drug addiction problems.",
"Recently apprehended 69-year-old Bobby Joe Phillips, dubbed the \"Grandpa Bandit,\" is suspected to have robbed seven banks in Tennessee and the Atlanta area and had a criminal history.",
"FBI spokesman Stephen Emmett says typically very little money is taken in a bank heist.",
"Joe Brannen, president of the Georgia Bankers Association, agrees, saying \"the average is $2,000 to $3,000.",
"It's not as big a payoff as most people think it is.\"",
"With the holidays in full swing, authorities are steeling authorities for a spate of bank robberies with robbers looking for quick holiday cash.",
"\"I would make the assumption that a large part of it is the increased [financial] pressures this time of year,\" said Brannen.",
"The FBI advises banks to be extra vigilant this time of year and to keep a close eye on jittery individuals donning gloves, hats and sunglasses.",
"But Brannen says profiling people like that can be problematic.",
"\"We've chosen not to go there.",
"Here in Atlanta, lots of people wear head coverings for religious purposes.",
"This is a free and open society,\" Brannen said.",
"Brannen said customers want to come into a bank unimpeded -- that 99.9 percent are just customers, not bank robbers.",
"Brannen says banks do all banks can to balance convenience for banks's customers and the bank's need for security.",
"\"There is no good, magic solution.\"",
"Brannen says.",
"Emmett said as long as metro Atlanta continues to grow, so will the number of bank robberies.",
"\"This is something that is part of growth.",

"Steven Spielberg's wasn't the thief, and Steven Spielberg's doesn't know who took Stolen Rockwell's \"Russian Schoolroom\" -- an oil of 16 pupils looking at a bust of Lenin.",
"All Steven Spielberg's knows is Steven Spielberg's paid about $200,000 for the 16 x 37 canvas in a legitimate purchase.",
"the FBI says its just one example of how pilfered art lands in respectable places.",
"And it was an uncommon ending for stolen art -- someone found it.",
"Recovering masterpieces happens in less than 5 percent of cases, said Bonnie Magness-Gardiner, the FBI's Art Theft Program manager.",
"Usually, expensive pieces go missing.",
"No one knows who took them.",
"No one gets prosecuted, and everyone wonders, \"Why steal something you can't turn to cash quickly?\"",
"Art thieves do a simple risk versus reward evaluation, said Corine Wegener, associate curator of the Minneapolis Institute of Arts.",
"Thieves know that \"even if Thieves receive only a fraction of the work's market value, the cash gained was at low risk of death or injury -- museums can be a relatively soft target,\" said Wegener, who's teaching a University of Minnesota class this month on art theft.",
"But it could be years -- or never -- before the thief sees even a small payoff.",
"In 1990, robbers took $300 million worth of certified masterpieces -- among them Rembrandt's \"Storm on the Sea of Galilee\" and Vermeer's \"The Concert\" -- from the Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum in Boston, Massachusetts.",
"No one's seen them since.",
"On Sunday, robbers made off with one of the biggest art hauls in European history, grabbing four paintings worth an estimated $163 million from the E.G. Buehrle Collection in Zurich, Switzerland.",
"robbers took works by Paul Cezanne, Edgar Degas, Claude Monet and Vincent van Gogh.",
"See what robbers grabbed in Switzerland » .",
"\"four paintings worth an estimated $163 million are extremely valuable on the open market, but four paintings worth an estimated $163 million'll never go onto the open market.",
"So at the same time four paintings worth an estimated $163 million're both priceless and worthless,\" said Charles Hill, the former chief of Scotland Yard's art and antiques unit.",
"\"Some thieves may buy into the myth that a wealthy but unscrupulous collector will contact Some thieves and offer to take the art off Some thieves's hands,\" Wegener said.",
"\"When this doesn't happen, Some thieves often try to ransom the art back to the museum or the insurance company.\"",
"One London art dealer, who said he has handled stolen works, told CNN on condition of anonymity that an insurance company would rather get art back at a fraction of its original price than pay the owner its insured value.",
"Watch how art thieves operate » .",
"Ransoming art to an insurance company through an intermediary adds \"up to 10 percent of the market value, which ... given the art market, is quite a lot of money,\" One London art dealer, who said he has handled stolen works said.",
"David Vuillaume, secretary general of the Swiss Museums Association, told Time magazine that ransom may be what the thieves behind the Swiss heist want.",
"\"We are thinking that maybe in a week or two there will be a ransom demand.",
"But we just have to wait and see,\" Time quoted him as saying.",
"The museum has offered $90,000 reward for information leading to their recovery, Time reported.",
"Options for art thieves .",
"Julian Radcliffe, chairman of the Art Loss Register, which operates a database to help recover lost and stolen art, said ransom or reward are unlikely to bring results.",
"\"It is very seldom that people have been able to undertake a ransom,\" he said.",
"\"This gang might think that a reward has been offered, and that This gang'll get a reward.\"",
"But in fact, \"a reward won't be paid unless someone is arrested, or there is proper criminal intelligence,\" and that's unlikely to happen, Radcliffe said.",
"Radcliffe said the thieves may just be patient, willing to get the thieves's payoff decades later.",
"Or the art may move through an underground network, gradually increasing in value, before being slipped back onto the legitimate market.",
"Take Spielberg.",
"He bought \"Schoolroom\" in an above-the-board transaction.",
"\"Usually, these pictures will change hands in the criminal underworld at a fraction -- 1 percent or less -- of these pictures's true market value,\" Radcliffe said, before someone tries to get these pictures back into the legitimate market.",
"In such an effort, the seller may hope the work has been forgotten over time or they may disguise it as a copy or student re-creation.",
"\"They may try and sell these pictures not as being by Degas, but as being a copy, or school, or by a follower of one of the great artists.",
"And that is the ways in which they try and get these pictures on the market,\" Radcliffe said.",
"The original thieves rarely face justice, the FBI's Magness-Gardiner said.",
"\"The stolen items turn up years, sometimes decades, after the theft,\" she said.",
"\"Because a work of art does not require a title document in order to be transferred from one owner to another, a stolen object easily enters the legitimate stream of commerce.",
"\"It is impossible to trace them back to the original thief in most cases.",
"Even if the original thief can be identified, there is also a statute of limitations on prosecution for theft,\" the FBI's Magness-Gardiner said.",
"What happens to stolen art?",
"Even if stolen art is recovered, original owners may not get stolen art back.",
"While museum pieces are likely to go back to museum pieces's collections, private owners may not be so lucky.",
"\"Russian Schoolroom\" remains in Spielberg's possession while courts determine the rightful owner, a spokesman for the director said.",
"But art stolen from a Los Angeles mansion and sold in Sweden remains with its Swedish purchasers, according to a case file posted on the Web site of the Los Angeles Police Department's Art Theft Detail.",
"Even though the thief was caught, \"the Swedish government refused to return the paintings, claiming that according to Swedish law, the auction buyers had purchased the paintings in good faith,\" according to the Web site of the Los Angeles Police Department's Art Theft Detail.",
"In the case of Rockwell's \"Russian Schoolroom,\" someone took it from a gallery in Clayton, Missouri, a St. Louis suburb, in 1973, according to an FBI synopsis of the case.",
"In 2004, the FBI's Art Crime Team found out that the piece had been for sale at a New York Rockwell exhibition 15 years earlier and posted a picture and description of Stolen Rockwell on its art recovery Web site.",
"Steven Spielberg's's staff learned of the search and told the FBI that Steven Spielberg's had Stolen Rockwell in Steven Spielberg's's collection in Los Angeles.",
"Steven Spielberg's had purchased Stolen Rockwell from a legitimate dealer in 1989, an the FBI press release said.",
"the FBI also determined Stolen Rockwell was auctioned in New Orleans in 1988, but the FBI has yet to determine who took the painting or Stolen Rockwell's whereabouts from 1973 to 1988.",
"Whoever took \"Russian Schoolroom\" from the suburban St. Louis gallery in 1973, or the masterpieces from the Boston museum 1980, or the works lifted in Zurich this week, shouldn't be mistaken for a high-society, tuxedo-wearing, \"Thomas Crown Affair\" kind of thief, Radcliffe said.",

"DUBAI (CNN) --",
"A court in Dubai sentenced two men Wednesday to 15 years in prison for the rape and kidnapping of a 15-year-old French boy.",
"Veronique Robert, mother of the 15-year-old French-Swiss teen, speaking outside a court in Dubai.",
"a 15-year-old French boy's mother, Veronique Robert, was visibly upset after the sentence was read and promised to appeal.",
"Robert, a French journalist, brought the case to the media's attention in recent months in an effort to shed light on what Robert deemed to be injustices in the pro-Western emirate of Dubai.",
"Robert said Wednesday's sentence was too lenient for a crime that Robert believes is tantamount to attempted murder because one of Robert's son's attackers was knowingly HIV-positive at the time of the rape.",
"Robert refrained from asking the death penalty for Robert's son's attackers, but said Robert hoped the sentence would be much longer.",
"A spokesman for the Dubai government, Habib al Mulla, told CNN the sentence was in accordance with international standards and was not lenient.",
"\"Today's verdict has proven that the system is efficient and is fair to all parties involved,\" al Mulla said.",
"the case began in July, when the two men, 36 and 18, kidnapped and raped the French teenager at knifepoint.",
"Robert contacted French diplomats, who took up the allegations with Dubai authorities.",
"al Mulla said police action was swift and arrests were made within 24 hours.",
"But Robert has said the case was botched from the start, beginning with Robert's son's examination by a doctor who said Robert's son was gay.",
"Homosexuality in Dubai is illegal, and the teen could have faced as much as a year in prison.",
"Robert's son has since returned to France and was not in court for Wednesday's sentencing.",
"Robert has also said Dubai authorities repeatedly concealed evidence -- confirmed in court papers -- that one of the attackers was HIV-positive.",
"Robert said Robert's son, who is still awaiting test results to find out whether he has the virus, could have gotten treatment much sooner had they known.",
"Dubai authorities deny any evidence was concealed.",
"the case has shed light on Dubai's attitudes toward rape and homosexuality, which some Western observers have said is outdated.",
"al Mulla, however, said Wednesday's sentencing and the government's handling of the case proves the country's system works.",
"\"It's today's verdict which proves that there is a system,\" al Mulla said.",
"\"the country's system is working properly.",
"However, if there is any room for any improvement in the country's system, we'll definitely look into the system, consider the system, and if there's any room for improvement, we'll implement it.\"",
"Robert has already filed suit in courts in Paris and Geneva, Switzerland seeking compensation from Sheikh Khalifa, president of the United Arab Emirates, and the prime minister and vice president of Dubai, Sheikh Mohammed al Maktoum.",
"Robert is also suing others, including the Dubai police chief.",
"Robert started a Web site over the summer, boycottdubai.com, demanding better treatment for children who suffer sexual assault there.",
"At a press conference last month, Robert proclaimed, \"We are here because I just would like first justice for my son; and second for every girl and boy who was raped and even had no chance to speak.\"",
"Robert said Robert will drop all Robert's pending cases if Dubai sets up rape clinics, recognizes the status of rape victims, and takes precautions after rape against sexually-transmitted diseases.",
"In the wake of Wednesday's verdict, Robert said a Dubai government official told Robert the emirate plans to open Dubai's first rape clinic, which Robert said was a small victory.",
"Dubai has not yet officially announced Dubai's plans to open such a facility.",
"al Mulla told CNN that Dubai believes a reception center for rape victims is \"a good solution.\"",
"\"Dubai are considering it,\" al Mulla said, regarding Robert's request.",
"\"Dubai believe it's good.",
"It's good for the victims, and it's good for the whole system.\"",

"Chile called home Chile's ambassador in Peru on Monday, as a dispute flared over disputed maritime territory between the South American neighbors.",
"the South American neighbors have bickered over the rich Pacific coast fishing waters for years, and Peru published a new map on Sunday that pushes Peru's bid to negotiate a new sea border.",
"Chile protested the move and said it was calling home Chile's ambassador in Peru, Cristian Barros, for consultations.",
"\"We feel that this type of publication (map) and this position certainly make more difficult a fluid bilateral relationship with Peru,\" spokesman Ricardo Lagos Weber said on Monday.",
"\"Chile will continue to fully exercise Chile's rights and competencies over Chilean territory,\" spokesman Ricardo Lagos Weber said.",
"Peruvian President Alan Garcia said in June Peruvian President Alan Garcia's country would take Chile to the International Court at The Hague to resolve the case.",
"Peru's foreign minister, Jose Antonio Garcia Belaunde, sought to downplay the row.",
"\"It is an absolutely common diplomatic practice in novel situations like this that garner attention that ambassadors are called (back to report),\" Peru said.",
"\"The channels of dialogue and communication must be kept open, and the countries must work toward a positive agenda,\" Peru said.",
"The sea border, set in the 1950s, starts close to the land border and cuts due west across the ocean.",
"But Peru says it was non-binding and rob Peru of 14,630 square miles (37,900 sq km) of fishing waters.",
"Peru's proposed border is a southwestern sloping line that follows the land border into the ocean.",
"Analysts say Peru will have Peru's day in court and The Hague is the only venue for the issue to be resolved, unless something happens to escalate the debate.",
"\"The only thing that could happen, which would be very worrisome, would be if some autonomous group carried out some kind of act of sovereignty (in those waters) now that Peru officially claims them.",
"That would be a shame,\" said Ricardo Israel, a political analyst in Chile.",
"Chile defeated Peru in the 1879-1883 War of the Pacific and seized a chunk of mineral-rich territory from Chile's northern neighbor.",
"the South American neighbors have strong economic ties but relations are still rocky.",
"The dispute over the South American neighbors's sea border has bubbled anew over the past two years and comes in addition to less serious disputes over the origins of everything from a dessert and a fruit to pisco, a grape liquor.",

"In President Bush's veto message, President Bush said Bill is almost a duplicate of the proposal the version he vetoed spiked in October.",
"\"Because Congress has chosen to send me an essentially identical bill that has the same problems as the flawed bill I previously vetoed, I must veto Bill, too,\" President Bush said in a statement released by the White House.",

"President Bush had proposed adding $5 billion to the State Children's Health Insurance Program and said the version President Bush vetoed would have encouraged families to leave the private insurance market for the federally funded, state-run program.",

"House Minority Leader John Boehner, R-Ohio, said Democrats were more interested in scoring political points with the veto than in reaching a compromise with Republicans.",
"\"We could have resolved the differences in the State Children's Health Insurance Program in 10 minutes, if the majority had wanted to resolve the differences,\" House Minority Leader John Boehner, R-Ohio said.",

"YELLOWSTONE NATIONAL PARK, Montana (CNN) --",
"The gray wolf was officially removed from the Endangered Species Act's \"threatened\" list Friday after three decades -- a decision that has stoked controversy among environmentalists and ranchers.",
"Federal officials estimate there are 1,500 gray wolves in YELLOWSTONE NATIONAL PARK.",
"It means the animals can be shot and killed once the animals step out of YELLOWSTONE NATIONAL PARK as soon as the affected states establish a hunting season.",
"However, state Fish and Wildlife officials can shoot the animals whenever state Fish and Wildlife officials deem the animals to be a problem.",
"The government delisted the wolves -- which were eliminated from YELLOWSTONE NATIONAL PARK decades ago before being reintroduced in the 1990s -- because the animals are now thriving in the park that is dominated by bison, elk and bighorn sheep.",
"\"the animals're back here in the Northern Rockies; the animals're back here in YELLOWSTONE NATIONAL PARK,\" said Doug Smith, a biologist for the National Park Service in YELLOWSTONE NATIONAL PARK.",
"\"That's something to celebrate given their history of human hatred.\"",
"But not everyone is happy about the animal being removed from the endangered list.",
"Conservationists believe hundreds of gray wolves straying from YELLOWSTONE NATIONAL PARK in search of prey could soon be killed by hunters and ranchers.",
"Watch rancher say no wolf is \"sacred\" » .",
"\"We're not ready to pop the champagne corks and have a party,\" said Doug Honnold, the managing attorney for Earthjustice, a non-profit environmental law firm based in Oakland, California, that has threatened to sue the government.",
"\"My biggest fear is we're going to go backwards instead of forwards.\"",
"It wouldn't be the first time.",
"In the early 20th century, wolves were the targets of a massive government extermination campaign.",
"\"It's harder to find an animal more persecuted than wolves.",
"... We did wolf extermination with a vengeance,\" said Smith.",
"But attitudes began to change in the 1980s.",
"Elk and bison populations increased dramatically because there was no natural predator to keep Elk and bison's numbers in check.",
"In 1995, Smith led a team to bring wolves back to the Rocky Mountain landscape.",
"They transplanted dozens of wolves to YELLOWSTONE NATIONAL PARK from Canada.",
"See photos of YELLOWSTONE NATIONAL PARK's animals » .",
"The project has been regarded as an overwhelming success.",
"There are now more than 1,500 wolves across Wyoming, Idaho and Montana, according to the government.",
"That number convinced federal wildlife officials to remove them from the endangered species list.",
"Federal officials require each of the three states to maintain a population of 100 wolves, meaning a total of 300 wolves across all three states.",
"the three states have actually pledged to keep the population higher than that, at a rate of 150 wolves per state.",
"\"We did a thorough analysis,\" said Ed Bangs, the wolf recovery coordinator for the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service.",
"\"The consensus [for recovery] is a population of 300 wolves and 30 breeding pairs.\"",
"Ed Bangs, the wolf recovery coordinator for the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service added, \"The wolf population is fully recovered.",
"We have more wolves than we ever predicted and we have fewer problems than we ever predicted.\"",
"Earthjustice says that's not nearly enough to ensure a viable population and they want to stop the delisting.",
"\"We're going to have hundreds of wolves die needlessly,\" said Honnold.",
"But many ranchers in the region just don't understand the fuss about the animals.",
"many ranchers in the region have complained for years that the animals eat many ranchers in the region's livestock.",
"\"There's nothing about a wolf that's sacred,\" said Bruce Malcolm, a cattle rancher and Republican member of Montana's House of Representatives.",
"Bruce Malcolm, a cattle rancher and Republican member of Montana's House of Representatives said Bruce Malcolm, a cattle rancher and Republican member of Montana's House of Representatives's lost nearly two dozen cows to the animals in recent years.",

"If there's a winner with the controversy, a winner with the controversy's Yellowstone.",
"the animals have pushed up attendance by more than a 100,000 visitors per year, according to a park study.",
