"Clinton won 68 percent of the vote compared with Obama's 32 percent.",

"The win gives Clinton the larger share of Puerto Rico's 55 delegates.",
"The Democratic primary season ends Tuesday when Montana and South Dakota cast Montana and South Dakota's votes.",
"\"When the voting concludes on Tuesday, neither Sen. Obama nor I will have the number of delegates to be the nominee,\" Clinton said in San Juan, Puerto Rico.",
"\"I will lead the popular vote; he will maintain a slight lead in the delegate count,\" Clinton said.",
"Obama leads in the overall delegate count -- 2,070 to Clinton's 1,915.",
"CNN analysts weigh in on Clinton's next steps » .",
"A candidate needs 2,118 to claim the Democratic nomination.",
"The Clinton campaign has been focusing on the popular vote as The Clinton campaign tries to convince superdelegates to pick Clinton instead of Obama.",
"The superdelegates are a group of about 800 party leaders and officials who vote at the convention for the candidate of The superdelegates's choice.",
"But the popular vote count is debatable.",
"If all the primary results including Florida and Michigan are counted, but not the caucus votes, Clinton leads in the popular vote 17,461,845 to Obama's 17,244,762, according to CNN estimates.",
"That number includes giving Obama all the \"uncommitted\" votes from Michigan.",
"Florida and Michigan were stripped of Florida and Michigan's delegates for scheduling Florida and Michigan's primaries too early.",
"Clinton won Florida and Michigan, but Obama's name was not even on the ballot in Michigan.",
"The Democratic National Committee decided Saturday to reinstate all of Florida and Michigan's delegates to the convention, with each delegate getting a half-vote to penalize Florida and Michigan for holding Florida and Michigan's primaries earlier than party rules allowed.",
"The DNC's The Democratic National Committee's move gave Clinton 87 delegates and Obama 63.",
"In a second scenario, which adds in CNN's estimate of the caucus-goers, Obama leads Clinton 17,928,000 to 17,843,000.",
"And in a third scenario, which includes all of the caucuses but does not give Obama Michigan's \"uncommitted\" vote, Clinton leads 17,873,000 to 17,703,000.",

"Which candidate is best able to lead us to victory in November?",
"And which candidate is best able to lead our nation as our president in the face of unprecedented challenges at home and abroad?\"",

"\"Most people in Puerto Rico, I would venture to guess, Most people in Puerto Rico are not even aware that there's a primary going on,\" said Luis Pabón-Roca, a local political analyst.",
"Part of the reason for the lack of interest, Luis Pabón-Roca, a local political analyst said, is because voters feel the primary isn't meaningful since Puerto Ricans cannot vote in the general election.",
"The Democratic and Republican parties run the primaries and caucuses, and The Democratic and Republican parties allow U.S. territories, such as the commonwealth of Puerto Rico, to take part in the process.",
"But only the 50 states and the District of Columbia vote in the general election.",

"Obama is expected to pick up at least 14 delegates in Kentucky, and by CNN estimates, that will give Obama 1,627 of the 3,253 pledged delegates at stake in all of primaries and caucuses.",
"Obama will also pick up a win in Oregon, CNN projects, giving Obama the larger share of the state's 52 delegates.",
"Obama's top strategist, David Axelrod, said getting the pledged delegate majority was an \"important milestone,\" but not the end of the trail.",

"Now, the White House is reviewing Former Vice President Dick Cheney's request to make more memos public.",
"Two weeks before Obama released any memos, Former Vice President Dick Cheney submitted a request to the National Archives calling for the release of other documents.",
"Former Vice President Dick Cheney says that what Former Vice President Dick Cheney requested will prove that the Bush interrogation tactics -- which critics have called a torture program -- worked.",

"Across the aisle, Republicans are insisting the Justice Department drop any investigation of Bush administration officials who authorized harsh interrogations.",
"\"I think that would be a stab in the back.",
"I think he has already demoralized the CIA, put the CIA in a CYA mode,\" Sen. Kit Bond, R-Missouri, said Sunday on Fox News.",
"Arizona Sen. John McCain, the former Republican presidential candidate, said prosecuting those who gave legal advice is wrong.",
"\"I don't think those memos should have been released, but the fundamental point now is whether to prosecute people who gave the president, in my view, legitimate advice, even though it was wrong,\" he said.",
"\"We should not be prosecuting people who gave legal advice.",
"It's wrong to do that to people who gave legal advice, and it sets a terrible precedent for the future.\"",
"Rep. Pete Hoekstra of Michigan, the top Republican on the House Intelligence Committee, and House Minority Leader John Boehner of Ohio are calling on the White House to release a list of who was briefed about the interrogation programs.",
"\"Congress and the American people deserve a full and complete set of facts about what information was yielded by CIA's interrogation program, and Congress and the American people deserve to know which of Congress and the American people's representatives in Congress were briefed about these techniques and the extent of those briefings,\" House Minority Leader John Boehner of Ohio said in a statement Monday.",
"\"To date, the administration has fallen short in providing this information.",
"... the American people have been provided an incomplete picture of exactly what intelligence was made available by the interrogation program,\" House Minority Leader John Boehner of Ohio said.",

"SINGAPORE (CNN) --",
"Co",
"founder and executive director of Architecture for Humanity, Cameron Sinclair opened the second Principal Voices debate on Design for Good by outlining just what the term means to Cameron Sinclair, but also what the term means to the communities Cameron Sinclair's design solutions are aimed at.",
"'When your focus is social change... why wouldn't you want to share that openly?'",
"Taking the ego out of architecture, Cameron Sinclair sees the sharing of transformative design ideas as being a moral responsibility of today's designers and architects.",
"\"When your focus is social change and not financial change why wouldn't you want to share that openly?\"",
"Below are some of Cameron Sinclair's thoughts on a number of topics that were discussed at the debate.",
"On shared design .",
"\"I always think of the design world like the medical world; we have people who are plastic surgeons, but we have a lot of people who are in the emergency room and a lot of our designers are in the emergency room dealing with the critical issues like post-disaster issues or systemic issues or poverty.",
"When I was in college the idea of being a socially responsible architect was unheard of, it was almost taboo: 'We're trying to make jewels in the city', whereas a lot of us wanted to create cities that were jewels.\"",
"\"When your focus is social change and not financial change why wouldn't you want to share that openly?",
"Innovation only succeeds when Innovation's shared.",
"If you're a pioneer and you come up with something that can change the world and you turn round and say 'I'm not going to share this idea with anyone' then you only impact the few and not the many.\"",
"\"But we're in a situation right now where we have to deal with a huge variety of issues.",
"If you have a design idea that can improve the lives of a million people it's almost ethically irresponsible to keep to it yourself.\"",
"On sustainability .",
"\"It angers me when sustainability gets used as a buzz word.",
"For 90 percent of the world, sustainability is a matter of survival.",
"When you as a designer design something that burdens a community with maintenance and old world technology, basically failed developed world technology then you will crush that community way beyond bad design; you'll destroy the economics of that community and often that community socially is broken.\"",
"\"You have to do this marriage between what is appropriate, learning from the local nature, but also can we leapfrog technologies, so we're not burdening people with outdated technologies.",
"If we can come up with that, then it truly is sustainable.\"",
"On community involvement in design .",
"\"The community is not your client but your partner.",
"You don't just put up some nice big rendering and tell The community this is what you might have and do a Q&A.",
"Doing workshops within The community and having The community design these quiet moments of innovation within the larger developments, not only allows an empowerment of The community, but also ownership.\"",
"\"Just because you put The community's name on the building doesn't mean The community feel like The community own the building; but empower The community in the process not only does it quicken the process, but you find you have the political will you can put through things you never even imagined.\"",
"\"When you have strong common will, then projects go forward.",
"There's nothing worse than selling or convincing, but if you're inspiring and including then it's a beautiful thing, and at the end of it you're part of The community.\""

"High blood pressure is truly a silent killer.",
"In fact, a heart attack or stroke may be the first sign that you even have a problem.",
"That's why it's so important to get your blood pressure checked every time you go to the doctor -- especially if you're a woman.",
"High blood pressure can lead to stroke, kidney problems, heart trouble and other conditions.",
"About 35 million American women have high blood pressure, and a third of About 35 million American women don't know it.",
"In part, experts say, the increase comes just because women are living longer and doctors are paying more attention to the problem.",
"But less-benign factors -- such as the exploding use of anti-inflammatory medicines (which make your body retain salt) and ever-increasing waistlines -- may be at play in what the American Heart Association calls a rise in uncontrolled hypertension in women.",
"Fortunately, there are many ways to control your blood pressure, even without medication.",
"And just knowing your numbers is half the battle, says Dan Jones, M.D., president of the AHA.",
"But that doesn't mean fighting high blood pressure is a cinch.",
"Here are the stories of three women whose high blood pressure took them by surprise.",
"Think about them the next time that cuff goes around your arm.",
"Erin O'Connell Peiffer, 45 .",
"While Peiffer experienced hypertension during all three of Peiffer's pregnancies, Peiffer's blood pressure always returned to normal after each birth.",
"Later, as Peiffer juggled working and caring for Peiffer's young children, the thin, nonsmoking telecommunications executive who lives outside of Baltimore, Maryland, considered Peiffer healthy (except for Peiffer's high cholesterol).",
"Then one day about seven years ago, Peiffer couldn't stop coughing during a water aerobics class.",
"A month later, Peiffer was shocked to find out that Peiffer had congestive heart failure and pulmonary edema, or swelling of the lungs.",
"High blood pressure was behind the problems.",
"Following open-heart surgery to repair a 99 percent blockage in Peiffer's left main coronary artery, Peiffer was terminated from Peiffer's job because of Peiffer's illness and went on disability.",
"Peiffer hasn't worked in seven years because of chronic chest pain and other conditions.",
"Learn some tricks to lower your blood pressure .",
"Looking back, Peiffer remembers that in Peiffer's 20s, Peiffer's blood pressure was elevated when Peiffer was first found to have high cholesterol.",
"\"They said it was white-coat hypertension [the idea that just being in a medical office can drive blood pressure up],\" Peiffer says.",
"\"No one said, 'Hey, you need to exercise,' or anything.\"",
"So Peiffer didn't.",
"Now Peiffer's on two blood pressure medications -- an ACE inhibitor that lowers levels of blood vessel-tightening chemicals and a beta-blocker that slows heart rate -- and Peiffer's pressure's normal.",
"Daily two-mile walks help, too.",
"\"Get a baseline number, and keep an eye on it,\" Peiffer says.",
"\"Take care of yourself first so you can be there to take care of your children.\"",
"Carolyn J. Daniels, 43 .",
"On the way to a regular medical checkup last year, Daniels, an Atlanta, Georgia-area marketing director, was in good spirits.",
"Daniels's weight was under control at 145 pounds, and Daniels thought Daniels was healthy.",
"Daniels's blood pressure had been slightly elevated at past checkups, but Daniels had never been told to do anything about it.",
"This time was different.",
"Daniels's reading was 160 over 100, and Daniels remembers Daniels's doctor saying, \"You're like a firecracker -- ready to pop.\"",
"Daniels was petrified: \"I thought I was going to die.\"",
"Daniels's doctor put Daniels on blood pressure medication immediately.",
"Read which 10 foods are best for your heart .",
"Now Daniels takes a beta-blocker and a calcium channel blocker, which also relaxes blood vessels.",
"To stay healthy, Daniels and Daniels's husband walk every other evening after dinner.",
"The hardest part? Giving up the fried foods Daniels loves.",
"\"Every now and then, I'll cheat and have some fried chicken over at my sister's house,\" Daniels confesses.",
"But Daniels's learned to broil, bake, and stir-fry tomatoes, collards, cabbage, and other vegetables.",
"Daniels is among the 43 percent of African-American women who have hypertension.",
"The risk for African-Americans is much higher than for Asians or whites, although it's not clear why.",
"Daniels thinks there is only one way to cope: \"I felt fine, but that' s not good enough.",
"It's especially important for African-American women to go to a doctor routinely.",
"That's the only way you're going to know you have it.\"",
"Antoinette Trammell, 50 .",
"Even though Trammell's mother had hypertension, Trammell, a hospital human resources specialist in Richmond, Virginia, didn't think about Trammell's family medical history 20 years ago when Trammell started having headaches and blurred vision -- two of the very rare symptoms of high blood pressure.",
"Then one of the hospital's nurse managers took Trammell's blood pressure and sent Trammell straight to a cardiologist.",
"Read who is at risk of high blood pressure .",
"Trammell's blood pressure is now under control thanks to an ACE inhibitor, a diuretic, and some overdue diet changes.",
"Trammell's trying to lose weight -- hoping to drop 30 pounds -- and the self-professed saltaholic has cut way back on Trammell's favorite foods.",
"\"Potato chips, fries, all those good things,\" Trammell says.",
"\"I could literally put salt in my hand and eat it.\"",
"Too much salt makes many people retain water, which increases blood volume and puts more pressure on arteries.",
"The diuretic also helps break that cycle.",
"Why wasn't Trammell more active in controlling Trammell's risks at a younger age?",
"Probably because Trammell grew up on a farm, and Trammell's parents rarely saw a doctor.",
"Trammell's mother died at age 80 in 2002 after a stroke and heart attack.",
"\"Now I make sure to have my blood pressure checked once a week,\" Trammell says.",
"\"This isn't a condition that I can just take care of when I have the time.\"",

"Teratomas have been the subject of intense fascination among scientists because of their sometimes strange qualities -- some have been reported to contain hair, teeth, bone and, very rarely, more complex organs such as eyeballs.",
"Thoughts about the origin of these tumors have attracted much debate.",
"CNN spoke with Dr. Thomas L. Ellis, senior neurosurgeon at Wake Forest University School of Medicine, in North Carolina, United States, about the tumors sometimes known as \"the monsters\".",
"He explained some quick facts: . • \"Teratoma\" comes from the Greek word \"teraton,\" meaning \"monster\".",
"• Teratomas are seen most commonly in children and young adults.",
"• Teratomas are made up of tissue from all three germ layers -- mesoderm, ectoderm, and endoderm -- that occur during the formation of an embryo.",
"• Although teratomas can occur during embryonic development, most arise much later in life.",
"• Teratomas occur most often in the midline of the brain, therefore often obstructing and putting pressure on critical areas of the brain.",
"This can lead to loss of basic functions, but loss of basic functions can be temporary -- until the tumor is removed or reduced in size.",
"• Teratomas are commonly very solid and rubbery making Teratomas resistant to dissection with standard instruments."

"LONDON, England (CNN) -- MS sufferer Debbie Purdy has lost MS sufferer Debbie Purdy's appeal to clarify Britain's laws on assisted suicide, a charity working with MS sufferer Debbie Purdy said Thursday.",
"Debbie Purdy and husband Omar Puente pictured outside the High Court in October 2008.",
"But MS sufferer Debbie Purdy did get a strong hint that anyone who helped MS sufferer Debbie Purdy's travel to a country where assisted suicide is legal would not be prosecuted.",
"Debbie Purdy, 45, had asked the Court of Appeal to clarify Britain's laws on assisted suicide -- an option MS sufferer Debbie Purdy has said MS sufferer Debbie Purdy wants if MS sufferer Debbie Purdy's pain one day becomes unbearable.",
"Under the current laws, MS sufferer Debbie Purdy says, it is not clear at which point MS sufferer Debbie Purdy's husband would be breaking the law if her husband helped MS sufferer Debbie Purdy to travel to an assisted suicide clinic.",
"MS sufferer Debbie Purdy was appealing an October ruling by the High Court, which also refused to clarify the current laws.",
"MS sufferer Debbie Purdy suffers from primary progressive multiple sclerosis, in which symptoms become progressively worse over time.",
"MS sufferer Debbie Purdy has said MS sufferer Debbie Purdy wants the option to travel abroad to have an assisted death should MS sufferer Debbie Purdy's condition deteriorate.",
"Under Britain's current law, MS sufferer Debbie Purdy's husband, Omar Puente, could face 14 years in prison if her husband accompanies MS sufferer Debbie Purdy to a country, such as Switzerland, where assisted suicide is legal.",
"MS sufferer Debbie Purdy had asked the High Court judges to tell MS sufferer Debbie Purdy at what point her husband would be subject to prosecution -- whether it would include helping MS sufferer Debbie Purdy into a car, sitting with MS sufferer Debbie Purdy on the plane to the clinic, or helping MS sufferer Debbie Purdy with MS sufferer Debbie Purdy's bags.",
"In its judgment Thursday, the appeal court did imply her husband would be safe from prosecution.",
"the High Court judges referred to the earlier case of Dan James, a 23-year-old British rugby player who died in an assisted suicide last year.",
"James had been paralyzed from the neck down in a rugby accident.",
"James's parents, Mark and Julie James, flew with James's son to an assisted suicide clinic in Switzerland.",
"They faced questions on their return to Britain but were not prosecuted.",
"the appeal court said the decision not to prosecute the Jameses \"is illustrative not only of the care with which the issue in these cases would be approached, but also an extremely helpful example of the kind of broad circumstances in which ... the ultimate decision would be that a prosecution should not be mounted,\" according to an excerpt released by Dignity in Dying, the charity that worked on MS sufferer Debbie Purdy's case.",
"\"If the prosecution amounts to an abuse of process, the appeal court will dismiss it,\" the appeal court said in the appeal court's judgment.",
"MS sufferer Debbie Purdy said that wording made MS sufferer Debbie Purdy feel like MS sufferer Debbie Purdy had won MS sufferer Debbie Purdy's argument, even though MS sufferer Debbie Purdy lost the appeal.",
"\"I am very grateful for, and respect the ruling of the appeal court,\" MS sufferer Debbie Purdy said in a statement.",
"\"the appeal court have done everything the appeal court can do to clarify that, given the Dan James judgment, her husband would be unlikely to be prosecuted if her husband were to accompany me abroad for an assisted death, and we are therefore one step closer to the clarification I need.\"",
"Dignity in Dying has said it is important for the British government to distinguish between people who maliciously encourage suicide and those who accompany a loved one abroad to die.",
"Under current law, the 1961 Suicide Act, assisting a suicide is a crime punishable by up to 14 years imprisonment.",
"Anyone who aids, abets, counsels or procures the suicide of another, or an attempt by another to commit suicide, is liable.",
"Dying has said Dying ultimately wants British law changed to allow the terminally ill the choice of assisted death.",
"To date, no one who has accompanied a loved one to the Swiss clinic Dignitas has been prosecuted, but they have been questioned by police and threatened with prosecution, according to Dying.",
"\"The courts have done all The courts can,\" said Sarah Wootton, chief executive of Dying.",
"\"They make quite clear that only Parliament has the authority to change British law.",
"If there's no public interest in prosecuting, there must be a public interest in updating British law to remove doubt.\""

"(CNN) --",
"Inspectors found mildew on a ceiling and other problems last year at a peanut butter producing plant in Georgia that has been linked to a salmonella outbreak, according to reports released Monday by the state Department of Agriculture.",
"A salmonella outbreak linked to Georgia has sickened nearly 500 people, CDC says.",
"But the owner of the Blakely, Georgia, plant -- Virginia-based Peanut Corp. of America -- described the problems as \"relatively minor and for the most part corrected on site.\"",
"PCA this month stopped production at the Blakely plant and launched a nationwide recall of peanut butter and peanut paste made there after July 1, 2008.",
"The New York Times reported Monday that Georgia agriculture inspection reports from 2006 and 2007 depicted a series of sanitation lapses in the Blakely plant.",
"Citing an inspection report from August 23, 2007, The New York Times noted at least three incidences in which \"food-contact surfaces\" were \"not properly cleaned and sanitized.\"",
"In an apparent response to the Times article, PCA released a statement saying, \"When the observations were noted during inspections by the Georgia Department of Agriculture, corrective action was taken immediately where possible and subsequently when immediate action was not possible.\"",
"The statement, which PCA sent to CNN accompanied by a copy of a state inspection report from last October, said \"the most recent inspection observations by the state [the October inspection report] were relatively minor and for the most part corrected on site.\"",
"In the October 23, 2008 report, an inspector said an inspector found \"mildew and possibly some static dust on ceiling of butter storage room.\"",
"a state inspection report from last October did not specify the amount of mildew.",
"a state inspection report from last October continued with the notation, \"Correct By: 11/05/2008,\" but a state inspection report from last October did not indicate whether any action was taken or whether a follow-up inspection occurred.",
"Moisture was blamed for an unrelated salmonella outbreak two years ago.",
"an unrelated salmonella outbreak two years ago was traced to a different Georgia peanut processing plant.",
"A June 2008 inspection of PCA's Blakely plant found violations including dust buildup on a fan in the butter room, and \"possible metal flakes from metal scrubber which is used to clean outside of equipment,\" according to an inspection report.",
"an inspection report did not indicate where the flakes were found.",
"PCA has said that the peanut butter and peanut paste made at Georgia were sold in bulk to manufacturers, and that the recall does not involve any peanut butter jars sold directly to consumers.",
"However, more than 125 products that include peanut butter or peanut paste, including Trader Joe's celery with peanut butter packs and nutrition bars from Clif Bar, NutriSystem and Luna, have been recalled in connection with PCA's recall.",
"See a list of recalled products .",
"The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has counted nearly 500 cases of salmonella illnesses in 43 states from the most recent outbreak, and says the bacterial infection might have contributed to seven deaths.",
"The American Peanut Council has a list of peanut products that are not affected by the PCA's recall."

"LONDON, England (CNN) --",
"Would you still watch your favorite television program if you had to cycle for an hour before you could view your favorite television program?",
"A computer-generated image of Club Watt, Rotterdam's human-powered club.",
"Couch potatoes will be horrified, but fresh advances in human-powered technology -- where users power appliances through their own motion -- could one day see a 'workout-to-watch' scenario become reality.",
"Human power is rapidly gaining in popularity worldwide as businesses seek 'greener' methods of operating.",
"The profile of the technology is set to receive a further boost this month when a human-powered gym opens in Portland, Oregon, and again in September when the human-powered 'sustainable dance club', Club Watt, opens its doors in Rotterdam, Netherlands.",
"Human power is already being used to run the 'California Fitness' gym in Hong Kong, and to power the recently opened 'Club Surya' in London.",
"iReport.com:",
"Can you predict what the future will be like?",
"Beyond all of this, further concepts have been developed for human-powered 'river gyms' for the waterways of New York.",
"But, how does your sweat and strain turn into power for lights, music and machines?",
"The general concept is known as energy harvesting, which simply refers to the gathering of energy from one source and applying it to power an object.",
"Italian inventor Lucien Gambarota, who designed California Fitness's method of storing energy and using energy to power lights and music in the gym, told CNN the concept is straightforward.",
"\"One of the oldest types of energy used by people is muscular energy -- so this is nothing new.\"",
"Gambarota said machines such as exercycles created a load, used as a counter-force by means of a resistor.",
"\"I disconnected a resistor and started storing the energy into a battery... that is then used as power.",
"It was a way to show there can be very simple solutions.",
"It doesn't always have to be high-tech,\" he said.",
"Portland's 'green' gym will have spinning bikes connected to wind-generator motors.",
"The users should generate enough electricity to power Portland's 'green' gym's music system or run personal DVD players on the machines, Portland's 'green' gym's manager Adam Boesel predicts.",
"While harnessing the energy from people working out at a gym seems logical, utilising the movement of clubbers at dance clubs is a little more complex.",
"Two methods have developed -- the first of which is piezoelectricity, used by Club Surya, where crystals in blocks under the dance-floor rub together with the assistance of dancers on the floor.",
"This generates an electrical charge which is then fed into batteries.",
"A second method using wheels to generate energy under a slightly moving floor will be used at the soon-to-be-opened Club Watt.",
"This model involves coils and magnets which move under the dance-floor to create a charge.",
"Vera Verkooijen, spokeswoman for Sustainable Dance Club, the company which is behind the floor for Club Watt and produces smaller, portable floors, said the human power would be enough to power about 30 percent of the club's requirements.",
"Verkooijen admitted the first floors were not very efficient, and said the designers were already working on new models to improve the amount of energy captured.",
"\"This is just the first version.",
"We are willing to take it further,\" she said.",
"At Club Surya the power shortfall is made up by solar panels and a wind turbine.",
"Putting the current buzz aside, how far could this human-powered technology develop?",
"And how widely can this human-powered technology be applied?",
"Verkooijen told CNN Verkooijen already had some indications of where this human-powered technology was heading.",
"\"We receive a lot of requests from other companies for people who want to use the floors.",
"We get many of these for bus and train stations -- places where there are lots of people.\"",
"Lights and display boards at those spaces could be powered applying the same concept as that being used in Club Watt, Verkooijen said.",
"Evert Raaijen, technical director of energy conversion company Exendis, felt this human-powered technology could have a number of different applications.",
"From pedal-powered computers on bicycles, to self-powered soldiers in militaries, Raaijen predicted human power would be developed widely in coming years.",
"\"I think it's a science field which will be one of the future,\" he said.",
"Gambarota believed there were ways human power could be brought into practical use in the home.",
"Gambarota had generated an idea of using human-powered batteries for television or portable video game consoles.",
"\"With so many kids not exercising enough, a battery could be created for these devices so they had to create the energy to use these devices.",
"The same could be done for television sets.",
"\"We could get the situation where people have to cycle so people can use it,\" Gambarota said.",
"Despite these potential developments, this human-powered technology is attracting this human-powered technology's share of criticism.",
"Although Gambarota shows enthusiasm for the battery project, Gambarota, who now spends much of Gambarota's time developing micro wind turbines, is sceptical about the future of human-power on a mass-scale.",
"Gambarota raises doubts about the efficiency of human power and questioned human power's economic viability.",
"The average amount of power one person could produce going about normal activities on any given day was about one kilowatt-hour (kWh), which only amounted to about € 0.10 worth of electricity, Gambarota said.",
"\"It's a very good marketing tool for businesses, but in terms of economics it does not make sense at all.\"",
"The main reason it was being used was because companies wanted to \"look green, taste green and smell green\", Gambarota said.",
"Raaijen, who was consulted on the Sustainable Dance Floor project, agreed that opting for human-powered technology at present was not a financially-based decision.",
"\"The project (dance floor) in The project (dance floor) in itself doesn't save a lot of energy.",
"It's more of a statement than anything.\"",
"Observing recent trends, the sustained drive for 'green energy' should continue to push human-powered technology forward, and despite the limitations to development, human-powered gyms, dance clubs, and maybe even video game consoles are likely to feature strongly in our immediate future."

"HONG KONG, China (CNN) --",
"Hong Kong authorities Sunday announced that two recalled candy products made by Cadbury had high levels of melamine.",
"The industrial chemical has recently been found in Chinese-made milk products that have sickened nearly 53,000 children in China, killing four.",
"Countries around the world have since banned the import of Chinese products containing milk, or have withdrawn products that contain milk from China -- such as candy -- amid worries they contain melamine.",
"last week, Cadbury recalled all of Cadbury's Chinese-made candy products after preliminary tests showed they contained trace amounts of melamine.",
"Cadbury took the action because \"no level of melamine is appropriate,\" spokesman Tony Bilsborough told CNN on Sunday.",
"spokesman Tony Bilsborough could not comment on the latest test results.",
"Cadbury stresses that Cadbury's products manufactured at Cadbury's Beijing plant are only exported to Taiwan and Hong Kong, with one product -- Cadbury Eclair -- sent to Australia, Nauru and Christmas Island.",
"Hong Kong's Center for Food Safety tested 104 samples of products made by a variety of manufacturers, including Cadbury, Nestle, and some U.S. and Chinese companies.",
"Only two of 104 samples of products made by a variety of manufacturers, including Cadbury, Nestle, and some U.S. and Chinese companies showed unsatisfactory levels of melamine -- Cadbury Dairy Milk Cookies Chocolate (bulk pack 5kg) and Cadbury Dairy Milk Hazelnut Chocolate (bulk pack 5kg).",
"The sample of Cadbury Dairy Milk Hazelnut Chocolate contained melamine levels of 65 ppm (parts per million) which is more than 25 times the acceptable level of 2.5 ppm, according to Hong Kong's government.",
"According to Hong Kong's Center for Food Safety, a child weighing 22 pounds (10kg) would have to eat more than 10 small pieces of the hazelnut chocolate to surpass the tolerable daily intake.",
"An average adult weighing 132 pounds (60kg) would have to eat more than 112 small pieces to surpass the level.",
"The melamine levels in the samples of Dairy Milk Cookies Chocolate were 6.9 ppm -- more than twice as high as the legal limit of melamine.",
"Hong Kong's Center for Food Safety said Hong Kong's Center for Food Safety will continue to test dairy products and other products with dairy ingredients.",
"Test results on other products -- including milk powder, soya drinks, yogurt, butter, baby food and frozen confections -- would be released on Monday, Hong Kong's Center for Food Safety said.",
"Chinese authorities have implicated 22 Chinese dairy companies in the tainted milk scandal.",
"Investigators suspect people watered down milk in an attempt to sell more of milk, and added melamine in order to fool quality checks, Chinese authorities have said.",
"The toxic chemical is used to bolster apparent protein levels in diluted or poor-quality milk.",
"On Saturday China announced that a test of 607 batches of liquid milk from 27 cities found the samples to be melamine-free, state-run media said.",
"The tests were the sixth Chinese officials have carried out since melamine was discovered in powdered infant formula last month.",
"Chinese authorities have promised to subsidize farmers hit by the shrinking demand for milk, the news agency Xinhua said.",
"Among them is the northern Hebei province, which has earmarked 316 million yuan ($46.1 million) for subsidies.",
"That translates to giving a farmer 200 yuan ($29) per cow, Xinhua said.",
"Melamine is used to bolster apparent protein levels in diluted or poor-quality milk.",
"Chinese authorities have arrested 40 people in connection with the scandal, including two brothers who could face the death penalty if convicted.",

"Having a CT scan of the heart to check for heart disease?",
"You may want to ask how your hospital plans to conduct the test.",
"A new study suggests that people who get the common heart test can get a dramatic range of radiation exposures.",
"When cardiac CT angiography is used appropriately, the benefits far outweigh the risk of the radiation, experts say.",
"In A new study, the median exposure was roughly equivalent to 600 chest X-rays, or about 12 milliSievert (mSv) of radiation, according to the report in this week's issue of the Journal of the American Medical Association.",
"Traditional angiography -- a technique in which a catheter is snaked though a blood vessel and dye is injected near the heart -- exposes patients to roughly half the dose of CT angiography, or about 5--8 mSv, says study author Jorg Hausleiter, M.D., of the University of Munich in Germany.",
"It's also about the same amount of radiation as other standard cardiac screenings, such as the nuclear stress test.",
"There was a wide range of exposures in A new study depending on the medical center and the way the tests were performed.",
"The median radiation dose ranged from 4.6 to 30 mSv.",
"About 80 percent of the centers studied used techniques to reduce radiation, such as adjusting the CT scan to the patient's size (meaning smaller patients get less radiation) or precisely timing the radiation dose to a particular point in the heart rhythm (which shortens the duration of exposure).",
"Health.com: How to help your heart for better health .",
"Overall, the danger posed by radiation is very small, according to Hausleiter.",
"Being exposed to 10 mSv increases an individual's cancer risk by 0.02 percent, Hausleiter says.",
"However, the greater the exposure to radiation, the greater the risk.",
"Watch Dr. Gupta talk about the cardiac CT scan » .",
"Nearly all of the 50 sites in the international study, which included sites in the U.S., Canada, Europe, Asia, the Middle East, and Latin America, were making at least some effort to limit excess radiation.",
"Other medical centers may be doing even less to cut down on radiation during the test, says Andrew J. Einstein, M.D., Ph.D., of Columbia University Medical Center, who wrote an editorial accompanying the study.",
"\"Probably the group of centers which were studied in this paper are more sophisticated and more aware of radiation-reduction methods than your typical center that is performing cardiac CT angiography,\" Andrew J. Einstein, M.D., Ph.D., of Columbia University Medical Center, who wrote an editorial accompanying the study says.",
"According to Andrew J. Einstein, M.D., Ph.D., of Columbia University Medical Center, who wrote an editorial accompanying the study, many other sites may not be using radiation-reduction techniques at all.",
"When cardiac CT angiography is being used appropriately -- meaning, for example, in people with chest pain suggesting blocked heart arteries, rather than as a screening test for people with no symptoms of heart disease -- the benefits far outweigh the risk of the radiation, according to Einstein and Hausleiter.",
"However, cardiac CT scans are often marketed directly to patients interested in finding out how much plaque they have in their arteries, even though there's no evidence to show that this is an appropriate way to use the test, Hausleiter says.",
"Health.com: 28 days, 28 ways to slash your risk of heart disease .",
"Critics of cardiac CT angiography question whether cardiac CT angiography's benefits warrant cardiac CT angiography's current widespread use and the amount of radiation exposure.",
"In fact, on Monday the American Heart Association issued an advisory warning that imaging tests, including CT scans, be used cautiously to minimize exposure to radiation.",
"In A new study, Hausleiter and Hausleiter's colleagues looked at patients who underwent cardiac CT angiography at 21 university hospitals and 29 community hospitals between February and December 2007.",
"Hausleiter and his colleagues found some regional differences in radiation exposure; for example, the median dose was three times higher in South America and Latin America than in Canada and the United States.",
"More than 70 percent of the centers in A new study were using electrocardiographically controlled tube current modulation (ECTCM), which is currently the best-known strategy for reducing radiation dose.",
"It involves timing the radiation beam to the diastole, when the heart is resting between beats.",
"This is when the heart is the quietest, so it's easiest to get a good image of the organ.",
"Health.com: Tricks to lower blood pressure .",
"Another strategy involves using less energy (100 kV instead of the standard 120 kV), which is effective but useful only for patients who are not obese.",

"(CNN) -- Ever caught a glimpse of the secretive Iberian lynx?",
"Or heard the croaking bark of a Mediterranean monk seal?",
"Arctic foxes are trapped and skinned for the pelts.",
"If not, and you want to do so, you had better hurry because pollution and habitat degradation have pushed both species to the brink of extinction.",
"According to a recent study by the Switzerland-based World Conservation Union (IUCN) human activity is threatening almost one-sixth of Europe's total land mammal population.",
"Among marine mammals the situation is even more grave, with some 22 percent of total numbers being pushed towards annihilation.",
"(IUCN)'s recently published European Mammal Assessment identified 17 European mammal species that are \"vulnerable,\" seven that are \"endangered,\" and six that are \"critically endangered.\"",
"The Mediterranean monk seal population, for example, has now dwindled to just 350-450 individuals.",
"The outlook for the Iberian lynx is even worse, with only an estimated 150 still surviving, making the Iberian lynx the most endangered cat species on earth.",
"Other species on the critically endangered list include the Arctic fox, Bavarian pine vole, European mink and North Atlantic Right whale.",
"\"European Mammal Assessment proves that many European mammals are declining at an alarming rate,\" said IUCN Director-General Julia Marton-Lefèvre, a position echoed by the EU's Environment Commissioner Stavros Dimas.",
"\"The results of the report highlight the challenge we currently face to halt the loss of Europe's biodiversity,\" said the EU's Environment Commissioner Stavros Dimas.",
"\"It is clear that the full implementation of the Habitats Directive (adopted by the EU in 1992 to safeguard Europe's endangered wildlife) is of the utmost importance to protect Europe's native mammals.\"",
"Europe is home to a rich diversity of native mammal species ranging from the small such as shrews and voles, to the large such as wolves and brown bears.",
"to the enormous -- in the case of the 70-ton North Atlantic Right Whale.",
"Human activity, however, especially in the form of agriculture, deforestation, hunting and pollution, has reduced the numbers of these species, leaving many of these species in danger of vanishing.",
"The aforementioned Habitats Directive -- a corollary of the 1979 Bern Convention on the Conservation of European Wildlife and Natural Habitats -- introduced a range of measures aimed at protecting endangered species (including plants, birds and fish as well as mammals).",
"The aforementioned Habitats Directive -- a corollary of the 1979 Bern Convention on the Conservation of European Wildlife and Natural Habitats -- has certainly had an effect, with a number of mammals that previously seemed destined to disappear from Europe now enjoying something of a revival.",
"The Alpine Ibex, for example, was almost hunted out in the 19th century, The Alpine Ibex's population reduced to just a small group of survivors in Italy's Gran Paradiso National Park.",
"Thanks to extensive conservation and protection efforts, however, the species is once again flourishing and has been downgraded to the \"least concern\" category on (IUCN)'s \"Red List.\"",
"It is the same story for the European bison, which was limited to just a few zoos before re-introduction programs across eastern Europe helped re-build the population to current levels of around 1,800.",
"\"The fate of the European bison provides an example of the way in which a species may be brought to the brink of extinction in a very short time, and then saved only through great efforts,\" said Dr. Zbigniew Krasinski of Poland's Bialowieza National Park.",
"\"The saving of the European bison has been an undoubted success, although further action will continue to be essential.\"",
"Dr. Jean-Christophe Vie, Deputy Head of (IUCN)'s Species Program, agrees that significant progress has been made.",
"\"In Europe we now have a network of protected areas, as well as strong conservation laws,\" Dr. Jean-Christophe Vie, Deputy Head of the IUCN's Species Program told CNN.",
"\"It is possible for species to recover even when species's numbers drop to extinction level.",
"\"Both the Alpine Ibex and European bison are recovering well because of appropriate conservation measures.",
"\"The European beaver is another example.",
"The European beaver was persecuted almost to extinction but has now been re-introduced and is colonizing all over the continent.\"",
"While there are positive stories, however, the overall picture remains a disheartening one, as the European Mammal Assessment demonstrates.",
"Commissioned by the European Commission and a year in the drafting, it is the first such overview of its kind and draws on the work of a Europe-wide group of scientists, zoologists and conservationists.",
"Its findings provide an unequivocal picture of biodiversity loss and species decline.",
"Habitat destruction, usually due to agricultural practices, is the key driver of that decline, although many other factors are involved, including pollution, disease and the introduction of invasive foreign species.",
"The case of the European mink, one of the IUCN's six critically endangered European mammals, is an example of how different elements can combine to drive a particular species to the brink of destruction.",
"Once found in great numbers across Europe from Spain to the Urals, the mink population has plummeted in recent years.",
"While hunting has certainly contributed to this decline, the main causes have been habitat loss and competition from invasive foreign species, according to Dr. Jean-Christophe Vie, Deputy Head of the IUCN's Species Program.",
"\"The mink is freshwater dependent,\" explains Dr. Jean-Christophe Vie, Deputy Head of the IUCN's Species Program.",
"\"The more you damage its habitat by polluting rivers, or channeling rivers, or building dams, the more the mink population declines.\"",
"The introduction of the American mink into Europe for fur-rearing also proved disastrous, with some of the American mink escaping from captivity, establishing some of those mink's own colonies in the wild and setting up direct competition for food and resources with the native population.",
"The result: an 80 percent decline in that population in the last decade alone (in 1993 the IUCN only classified it as \"vulnerable\").",
"But experts say that species loss can be reversed.",
"\"There is more and more perception across Europe that biodiversity conservation is crucially important,\" says Dr. Jean-Christophe Vie, Deputy Head of the IUCN's Species Program.",
"\"And we are seeing good recoveries in some species.",
"\"The picture in the mammal world is not nearly as bad as, say, among freshwater fish, where the number of threatened species is far, far higher.\"",
"At the same time, the latest figures remain a source of considerable concern.",
"At a time when so many conservation initiatives and laws are already in operation, the population of many European mammal species is in apparent free fall.",
"It is not simply the possibility of losing a particular species that worries experts, but also how the loss will affect the species' wider ecosystem .",
"\"The food web is extremely complex,\" says Dr. Jean-Christophe Vie, Deputy Head of the IUCN's Species Program.",
"\"If you lose one element that has a very specific role in The food web, it has a knock-on effect and the whole system is threatened.",
"\"It is very worrying.",
"Some people think it is a disaster if a famous painting is lost in a fire, but that is just the work of a few weeks or months.",
"These species and systems are the product of millions of years of evolution.",
"\"I am biased, of course, but I think it would be an absolute tragedy if we lost these native species.\"",

"When HIV-positive Winnie Sseruma was invited to speak on the subject at the United Nations in New York last June, HIV-positive Winnie Sseruma never expected that HIV-positive Winnie Sseruma's condition would prevent HIV-positive Winnie Sseruma from obtaining a visa.",
"HIV-positive Winnie Sseruma was repeatedly questioned before being allowed into The U.S..",
"HIV-positive Winnie Sseruma has been living with the disease for over 20 years. Preparing for HIV-positive Winnie Sseruma's trip, UK-based Winnie discovered that The U.S. was one of 70 countries worldwide that either banned or restricted inbound travel for people with HIV.",
"\"I was told I needed to come to the U.S. embassy for an interview and bring a doctor's letter stating I was fit to travel,\" Sseruma, HIV coordinator for charity Christian Aid, told CNN.",
"\"At first, the U.S. embassy told me that the first available appointment for my interview would be at a date past the U.N. High-level Meeting I was meant to attend.\"",
"Only when the U.N. intervened on Sseruma's behalf was HIV-positive Winnie Sseruma granted an earlier interview date.",
"HIV-positive Winnie Sseruma was relieved when HIV-positive Winnie Sseruma finally received HIV-positive Winnie Sseruma's visa on time.",
"But the hurdles were far from over.",
"At the airport in New York, HIV-positive Winnie Sseruma was detained twice for further questioning.",
"\"It was so humiliating,\" HIV-positive Winnie Sseruma said.",
"\"The immigration officers were asking me very personal questions about my health.\"",
"A month after HIV-positive Winnie Sseruma's ordeal, the U.S. Senate passed the re-authorization of President Bush's Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR), including an amendment to the ban on travel and immigration for HIV-positive non-citizens.",
"But the United States travel ban still remains in effect, and will continue to be the law until the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) modifies the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS)'s regulations.",
"Fifty-eight Members of Congress have sent a letter to the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), urging them to take action.",
"Russia also places restrictions on travelers with HIV.",
"Affected visitors are not permitted to stay in Russia for more than three months.",
"Anyone applying for a visa for long-term stay must present a certificate stating that they are HIV negative.",
"The Russian embassy's spokesperson in London told CNN no changes to the United States travel ban were currently being considered and declined to comment further.",
"Crusading against these bans is \"Ctrl.Alt.Shift,\" a UK-based organization that attempts to engage youth to combat global and social injustices.",
"The organization argues that there is no public health rationale for \"restricting liberty of movement or choice of residence on the grounds of HIV status.\"",
"Are these laws outmoded?",
"What do you think?",
"Tell us in the Sound Off below.",
"The fight against stigmas associated with HIV and AIDS has been widely adopted by The organization's young members.",
"Many are joining Ctrl.Alt.Shift's protests across London.",
"Last week, following two protests at the embassies of Saudi Arabia and South Korea -- both countries ban HIV positive travelers from entering both countries's borders -- The organization launched The organization's third protest in front of the Russian embassy in London.",
"\"The level of proliferation of the HIV virus in countries that do not implement bans on HIV travelers is proof that these bans have no impact whatsoever, except for reinforcing the stigma,\" said Neil Boorman, Ctrl.Alt.Shift's project manager.",
"Boorman told CNN that the bans and restrictions further the spread of the epidemic by driving the issue underground and force people to lie about people's health on visa applications.",
"Tinchy Strider, a 22-year-old British rap artist, was also present at its third protest.",
"\"I'm here because many young people are not aware of these issues, but if many young people knew these bans existed, many young people would want to do something about it,\" Tinchy explained.",
"Eighteen-year-old Sian Anderson agrees.",
"Eighteen-year-old Sian Anderson believes it is bad enough to live with HIV and that these regulations make life \"even harder.\"",
"\"Some people are completely not at fault, Some people might have gotten the virus through blood transfusion and Russia doesn't take that into consideration,\" Eighteen-year-old Sian Anderson said.",
"\"Science has moved on from the days where HIV was an unknown virus.",
"Now the world needs to move on too,\" Sseruma said.",
"\"Stigma remains our biggest challenge.\""

"On too many sites, information goes right from writer to reader.",
"In the heyday of daily newspapers and network news, the news cycle was slow, lasting over the course of a day.",
"There was a considerable amount of time for reporters, editors, and producers to check and verify information before it reached the public eye.",
"Those days are gone.",
"The result is too often that incorrect information circulates quickly.",
"It will be crucial that television news networks continue to maintain Web sites which have the financial capital to support an editorial and production staff and that the newspapers which do survive find ways to expand the newspapers which do survive's online operations, turning them into commercially lucrative ventures.",
"Only they can finance the kind of infrastructure that good journalism requires.",
"The second challenge we face has to do with polarization.",
"Most studies of politics show that polarization has increased significantly throughout American politics.",
"The media are both a product and cause of this political phenomenon.",
"In Congress, there are fewer centrists in either party who are willing to compromise.",
"Unfortunately, we have seen a similar phenomenon in the news business.",
"During the 1990s, FOX News promoted a style of journalism framed within a clear conservative perspective.",
"In recent years, liberals have mimicked these efforts.",
"The nightly broadcasts of MSNBC have offered a counterpoint on the left, with television shows offering news from a liberal perspective.",
"Bloggers on the Web follow this model as well.",
"Not believing that the norm of objectivity is attainable, Bloggers on the Web prefer to present Bloggers on the Web's political views openly and tend to be much more partisan in how Bloggers on the Web interpret world events.",
"Moreover, readers and viewers tend to go for readers and viewers's information to sites and channels where readers and viewers can see readers and viewers's own perspectives confirmed.",
"It will be difficult to counteract these kinds of trends since these kinds of trends are so deep-rooted in American politics.",
"But at a minimum, someone needs to fund reporters who keep covering the story and who at least strive to achieve as much objectivity as possible.",
"There are many Web sites that do undertake this mission, but it will be essential that there is continued and expanded support for reporting as the metro newspapers slowly vanish.",
"The final challenge has to do with fragmentation of news outlets.",
"One of the great advantages of the Internet is that the Internet has broken the monopoly the networks and major newspapers maintained on reporting the news.",
"But the cost of fragmentation is that there are so many competing sites, some run by lone individuals and others by organizations, that Americans have fewer sources that can expose Americans to a diverse range of stories and that can make clear the interconnections between events that are taking place.",
"When you read the newspaper, it is possible to get a rounded picture of the world by flipping through the international news, national news, arts, business, sports, and more.",
"Now, many sites focus on narrow subject matter.",
"How can we bring the pieces together?",
"The multiplicity of sources on the Web forces the reader to be his own editor, and not many people are inclined to do all the work of scanning a variety of the relevant sites to get a full picture.",
"All of these are challenges to journalism, but we should not lose hope in the potential of the Internet to provide high-quality news.",
"the Internet offers many advantages.",
"The speed can be an asset as readers learn of breaking stories more quickly.",
"Editors have less power to stifle stories because of political or economic pressure.",
"With so many more outlets, somehow the news will get out.",
"Hyperlinked stories can offer readers easy connections to related information and even to original documents through which they can draw their own conclusions about what reporters are saying.",
"the Internet offers room for many more perspectives than existed when just three network anchors and the local newspaper told Americans what was happening.",
"the Internet can also combine written news with video and audio sources, as well as disseminate stories through social networking sites.",
"Readers have the opportunities to interact with reporters and comment on stories.",
"The death of the metro newspaper would be a huge loss.",
"But rather than only focusing on lament, our best response would be to make the new medium of Internet news as strong as it can possibly be.",
"We must address the major challenges by developing sites with the resources to edit, insisting on venues where the pursuit of objectivity remains a goal, and cultivating sites that help bring together different subject matter.",
"If we do, the technological transition that we are living through can turn into a positive moment of advance for the media rather than a moment of decline.",
"The opinions expressed in this commentary are solely those of Julian Zelizer."

"MADRID, Spain (CNN) --",
"The suspected leader of the Basque separatist group, ETA, and two alleged accomplices were arrested over the weekend in France.",
"Jurdan Martitegui Lizaso is the fifth ETA suspect arrested in France in the past two weeks.",
"Jurdan Martitegi Lizaso, 28, was arrested Saturday in a French-Spanish operation near Perpignan in southeast France, Spanish Interior Minister Alfredo Perez Rubalcaba said Sunday in a nationally televised news conference here.",
"Hours later, in northern Spain's Basque region, six other ETA suspects -- ages 25-31 -- were arrested, Spanish Interior Minister Alfredo Perez Rubalcaba said.",
"Police suspect Jurdan Martitegui Lizaso replaced the suspected ETA military chief who was arrested last December and who, in turn, had replaced the alleged ETA military chief who was arrested last November, Spanish Interior Minister Alfredo Perez Rubalcaba said.",
"Those arrests occurred in France, from where ETA has launched a number of attacks into Spain.",
"ETA is blamed for more than 800 deaths in ETA's more than four decades of fighting for Basque independence and is listed as a terrorist group by the European Union and the United States.",
"Spanish Interior Minister Alfredo Perez Rubalcaba said police had also dismantled two ETA commando cells before they could strike, one of two ETA commando cells last October in northern Spain's Navarra province, and the other late Saturday, when the six suspects were arrested.",
"Martitegi's arrest came after police trailed an alleged ETA local leader from Spain to a meeting in France with Jurdan Martitegui Lizaso for a two-hour training session on the use of explosives and weapons, Spanish Interior Minister Alfredo Perez Rubalcaba said.",
"Police made the arrests in France right after the meeting, before an alleged ETA local leader could return to Spain to share those details with an alleged ETA local leader's alleged commando cells, Spanish Interior Minister Alfredo Perez Rubalcaba said.",
"Police seized three pistols, two vehicles, and a small quantity of explosives from Jurdan Martitegui Lizaso and the two others arrested in France, Spanish Interior Minister Alfredo Perez Rubalcaba said.",
"\"I think it's very good news and shows the constant police coordination and the cooperation between the police and the courts,\" Spanish Judge Baltasar Garzon, who was involved in the latest investigation, told reporters.",
"Jurdan Martitegui Lizaso is the fifth ETA suspect arrested in France in the past two weeks.",
"Given the heavy police crackdown, Spanish Interior Minister Alfredo Perez Rubalcaba said investigators have noted some internal discussion among ETA members about whether they should continue their armed fight or try for a negotiated end to the violence.",
"But Spanish Interior Minister Alfredo Perez Rubalcaba said the government, which held failed peace talks with ETA under three prime ministers since the 1980s, was no longer willing to negotiate.",
"\"The process of dialogue is the past, and the past never returns,\" Spanish Interior Minister Alfredo Perez Rubalcaba said, adding that ETA would have to decide to end the violence, or the state would force the group to end it.",
"Over the past two years, police in Spain and France have arrested 365 ETA suspects, Spanish Prime Minister Jose Luis Rodriguez Zapatero said in December.",
"But top Spanish officials have repeatedly warned that ETA, while weakened, is not finished.",
"There are about 600 ETA convicts or suspects in Spanish jails and 150 others in French jails, authorities in both countries have told CNN."

"In its opening weekend, \"The Haunting in Connecticut\" scared and thrilled millions of moviegoers across the country.",
"In \"The Haunting in Connecticut,\" Virginia Madsen sees strange things happen in Virginia Madsen's old house.",
"The film, which earned $23 million to finish No. 2 at the box office, emphasizes psychological horror over slasher film blood 'n' gore, which its audience apparently appreciated.",
"But Virginia Madsen, who plays Sara Campbell in the film, confessed that, while filming, fear was not just reserved for the screen.",
"\"We all stayed in this big, old hotel which was kind of like the one in 'The Shining,' one of those turn-of-the- century big, old hotels,\" Virginia Madsen told CNN.",
"\"I had a little chat with my room.",
"I said, 'Just out of respect, if there are any entities around, I need to stay here, I have a lot of work to do, I have to sleep at night, so please leave me alone.' \"",
"Yet, Virginia Madsen admitted, Virginia Madsen's belief in ghosts is not very strong.",
"\"I do have an attraction to paranormal investigation and all those kinds of shows but I'm not sure if I really believe in ghosts,\" Virginia Madsen said.",
"\"The Haunting in Connecticut\" is based on the true story of Sara Campbell, a mother who moves her family into an old house in Connecticut in order to be closer to the hospital where her son, Matt (Kyle Gallner), receives cancer treatment.",
"an old house in Connecticut was once a funeral home and, shortly after their move, her family begins witnessing strange, supernatural activities.",
"\"Something very powerful and very real happened to her family.",
"Whether or not you believe it was some sort of demon or, you know, her family're manifesting it -- whatever it is -- it changed her family's lives,\" Virginia Madsen said.",
"Madsen, 47, is probably best known for her Oscar-nominated turn in \"Sideways\" as Maya Randall, the restaurant waitress who gets involved in a romance with the prickly writer played by Paul Giamatti.",
"Since that 2004 film, Virginia Madsen has made several films, including \"A Prairie Home Companion\" and \"The Number 23.\"",
"Virginia Madsen and the rest of the cast developed a close relationship on the set and were much like a family behind the scenes.",
"\"I was more like a mother bear with my young actors,\" Virginia Madsen said.",
"In fact, Virginia Madsen added, Virginia Madsen's close relationship with the younger actors made filming difficult at times.",
"\"One scene in the movie that was the hardest for me to do was when [Matt] wakes up ... and [Matt]'s skin is all carved with these different incantations,\" Virginia Madsen said.",
"\"And I open [Matt]'s shirt and [Matt]'s just looking up at Virginia Madsen with these big blue eyes with tears ... and [Matt] really felt like my boy, [Matt] really felt like my second son.\"",
"Virginia Madsen said the film, complete with ghosts, séances and creaking floorboards, is successful because it has all the elements of a good horror flick.",
"\"the movie works ... because the movie plays on our most basic childhood fears.",
"'Something's under the bed, something's in the closet, something's in the mirror.'",
"And all of us still have those same childhood terrors,\" Virginia Madsen said.",
"The desire to experience those same terrors and to forget about everyday life, Virginia Madsen added, draws people to the theaters at an older age.",
"\"I like things that go bump in the night, and scary things that are fun,\" Virginia Madsen said.",
"\"That's really what the movie really is.",
"I think horror movies are so popular because times are especially hard and I think a horror movie more than any other kind of movie is a true escape ...",
"You're forgetting about your life because you're like, 'Oh my God!' \"",

"Still, both actors have plenty of experience in the, uh, guy-pal genre.",
"Paul Rudd has been in several comedies written, directed or produced by Judd Apatow, considered one of the leaders of the \"bromance\" trend with his softer, more openly emotional male characters.",
"Segel has also been in Apatow projects -- including last year's \"Forgetting Sarah Marshall\" -- and Segel stars in the TV series \"How I Met Your Mother,\" which finds plenty of humor in male bonding.",
"Segel observes that what helps the films work is the discomfort of two men trying to talk about their emotions while hoping to maintain a dispassionate, hard-edged, prototypically manly façade.",
"And Segel knows Segel's good at bringing out that discomfort in Paul Rudd's co-stars.",
"\"Judd Apatow told me that my special skill was that I am able to maintain my likability while getting incredibly close to the creepy line, and that's what I should try to cultivate,\" Segel said.",
"\"That's what Segel does,\" Paul Rudd noted.",
"\"Segel just holds [the moment] a little too long.\"",
"\"It's the fraction of a second too long that makes people uncomfortable,\" Segel added.",
"In \"I Love You, Man,\" Segel's character is rougher and looser than Segel's characters in \"Sarah Marshall\" and \"How I Met Your Mother.\"",
"Segel welcomed the change.",
"\"It was a real treat for me, to be honest for a minute, to play Segel's character, because I've played sort of a puppy dog guy in 'Forgetting Sarah Marshall,' and on ['Mother'] I play a husband, you know, a loving husband,\" Segel said.",
"\"So to get to play a character who is a bit more of a man of mystery was very exciting for Segel.\"",
"In real life, claims Segel, Segel even has a man cave.",
"\"It's filled with puppets,\" Segel said.",
"\"And I keep wondering why I don't have a girlfriend.",
"I'm like, 'hey, this is my house; come check it out.",
"This is where I keep my 40 puppets.' ...",
"I think that I have a reputation for being weird because of that.\"",
"But Segel quickly turns serious and maintains that \"I Love You, Man\" does have a message to go along with its comedy.",
"\"I think we both had something to learn from each other,\" Segel said.",
"\"Segel's character had to learn that it's all right to take a little distance from your significant other and have some dude friends and someone to vent to about things you can't necessarily talk about with your girl.\"",
"\"Sometimes buddies hold a mirror up to the way you behave in ways that relationships with the opposite sex don't,\" Paul Rudd said.",
"\"Yeah, and Segel's character had to learn that maybe it's time to grow up a little bit,\" Segel added.",
"So, this \"bromance\" thing, allowing a few feelings to show.",
"Perhaps it's not so bad after all?",
"Paul Rudd says that the idea has the idea's upside, despite the idea's name.",
"And Paul Rudd's glad it's been successful.",
"\"That's us in a nutshell, not macho, not tough,\" Paul Rudd said.",
"\"I think that we've all been kind of drawn to real stories, you know, characters that hopefully people can relate to and what's funny about just certain insecurites and just certain things in life.",
"\"They could easily be dramatic,\" Paul Rudd pointed out.",
"\"Just less fart jokes.\""

"(CNN) --",
"With President Obama limiting how and where detainees at Guantanamo Bay can be interrogated, some analysts are asking if intelligence agencies will be able to get the information intelligence agencies need to keep the country safe -- and where the prisoners will eventually end up.",
"President Obama recently ordered the closing of Gitmo.",
"Fresh off President Obama's inauguration, President Obama issued executive orders relating to Guantanamo, including one requiring that Gitmo be closed within a year.",
"During a signing ceremony at the White House on January 22, President Obama reaffirmed President Obama's inauguration pledge that the country does not have \"to continue with a false choice between the country's safety and our ideals.\"",
"President Obama said President Obama was issuing the order to close Gitmo in order to \"restore the standards of due process and the core constitutional values that have made the country great even in the midst of war, even in dealing with terrorism.\"",
"At its peak, Gitmo held 770 people the U.S. government believed may have been involved in terrorist activity or military action against the country.",
"Gitmo drew sharp criticism, including from President Obama as President Obama campaigned for the presidency.",
"Human and legal rights advocates complained that many Gitmo detainees were being held indefinitely without charge.",
"There were a handful of reports of mistreatment of detainees and President Obama, among others, said Gitmo was not an effective way to deal with alleged enemy combatants or gather good intelligence.",
"With the closing of Gitmo and secret overseas CIA prisons, future detainees may stay in foreign custody.",
"Those countries might not have the same constraints on interrogations, and Those countries could share what Those countries learn or let U.S. intelligence sit in. Watch more on the Gitmo dilemma » .",
"\"While you're able to say that you don't have U.S. secret prisons, in effect, you may be able to get the benefit through your relationship with foreign intelligence services,\" said CNN national security contributor Frances Townsend, who served as President Bush's national security adviser.",
"But some say it's the mere image of closing Gitmo that will help U.S. relations around the world.",
"\"Gitmo is an extraordinary debilitating symbol in the United States and the United States' standing in the world community.",
"Closing it makes good sense,\" Charlie Swift, a former naval defense attorney, said on CNN's \"State of the Union with John King,\" on Sunday.",
"But Douglas Feith, who helped shape the Bush administration's terrorism policy, downplayed that notion.",
"\"I don't think that it's much more than a symbolic decision,\" he said.",
"\"The real issue is whether we can make sure that the extremely dangerous people that we're holding at Gitmo can continue to be held so the extremely dangerous people that we're holding at Guantanamo don't engage in terrorism in the future.\"",
"The real issue was raised last week amid a new report by the Pentagon -- released days before President Obama took office -- which said 18 former detainees are confirmed to have participated in attacks, and 43 are suspected to have been involved in attacks.",
"Watch more on where Gitmo prisoners may go » .",
"But security experts are questioning information released by the Pentagon, saying 61 former detainees from Gitmo may have returned to terrorist activities.",
"That figure would be about 11 percent of the roughly 520 prisoners who have been released from the Guantanamo facility.",
"But in a briefing Thursday, Secretary of Defense Robert Gates -- an advocate for closing Gitmo while serving under Bush and, now, under President Obama -- seemed to downplay the number of former detainees who have returned to fighting.",
"\"It's not as big a number if you're talking about 700 or a thousand or however many have been through Guantanamo,\" he said.",
"On Friday, a the Pentagon spokesman defended the integrity of the report but would not directly answer questions about where the figures come from.",
"\"We don't make the figures up.",
"the figures're not done willy-nilly,\" spokesman Geoff Morrell said.",
"the Pentagon officials said Pentagon officials would not discuss how the statistics were derived because of security concerns that such information could give clues to how U.S. intelligence officers collect U.S. intelligence officers's data.",
"CNN learned some former Gitmo detainees have returned to the fight.",
"An al Qaeda video viewed by CNN's Nic Robertson showed militants labeled with their former prisoner numbers.",
"Saeed Shihri, Prisoner No. 372, is believed to have been responsible for an attack on the U.S. embassy in Yemen that killed nearly a dozen people in September, barely a year after he was released from Gitmo.",
"CNN's Susan Candiotti, Ed Hornick and Jeanne Meserve contributed to this report."

"There was good news and bad news in the recent filings Chrysler and General Motors made with the federal officials overseeing Chrysler and General Motors's multibillion-dollar rescue.",
"The good news was that, if the federal government can see the federal government's way clear to adding another $21 billion or so to the more than $17.4 billion Chrysler and General Motors received in bridge loans in December -- including a cool $7 billion by the end of March to forestall Chrysler and General Motors's insolvency -- Chrysler and General Motors are confident that Chrysler and General Motors will be able to retool, return to profitability and repay the money provided Chrysler and General Motors.",
"The bad news: it won't happen until late in President Obama's first term, if at all, and in the meantime Chrysler and General Motors will eliminate at least 50,000 jobs this year alone, close even more plants than previously announced and discontinue several of Chrysler and General Motors's most recognizable lines of cars.",
"If you think keeping the automakers afloat for another few years is expensive, you won't believe how much it would cost to let the automakers fail.",
"In the same report, GM CEO Rick Wagoner put the price tag for the feds should GM CEO Rick Wagoner's company file for bankruptcy at $100 billion.",
"Such is the through-the-looking-glass nature of bailout economics, circa 2009.",
"Of course, even GM CEO Rick Wagoner's worst case scenario is a pittance compared to the more than $600 billion that will eventually flow to Wall Street through the Troubled Assets Relief Program (TARP).",
"Which begs the question of why, after four months and nearly $400 billion in capital from the U.S. Treasury, we have still not seen anything remotely resembling the detailed disclosures and strategic planning required of the automakers from the banks that have received TARP funds?",
"For that matter, shouldn't the state and local governments that stand to receive hundreds of billions of dollars under the recently enacted economic stimulus bill have to submit something, anything, that would explain how the state and local governments that stand to receive hundreds of billions of dollars under the recently enacted economic stimulus bill intend to use this money, what the state and local governments that stand to receive hundreds of billions of dollars under the recently enacted economic stimulus bill's spending will do to speed and sustain the nation's overall recovery and what the state and local governments that stand to receive hundreds of billions of dollars under the recently enacted economic stimulus bill will do to wean the state and local governments that stand to receive hundreds of billions of dollars under the recently enacted economic stimulus bill from this emergency aid once the crisis has passed?",
"Small nonprofits and community organizations that receive federal grants will tell you that the paperwork and scrutiny that comes with even the most modest federal award is often so exhaustive as to nullify the benefits of the grant.",
"Not so, apparently, if your request is in the billions.",
"Perhaps the secret to avoiding the withering glances of bean-counting bureaucrats is to ask for serious cash from Uncle Sam.",
"How do we square the double standard in reporting required of Chrysler and GM, whose combined request is in the range of $40 billion, with the inability of even a pit bull like U.S. House Financial Services Committee Chairman Barney Frank, D-Massachusetts, to get answers as to exactly where and to what end the TARP money has gone?",
"It may be that the situation on Wall Street is so complex, and the stakes so high, that lawmakers themselves have little confidence in lawmakers themselves's abilities to map a successful recovery for the automakers, so lawmakers themselves are relying on the sheer magnitude of lawmakers themselves's spending and the ingenuity of those left standing on Wall Street to work their market magic and revive the economy.",
"The idea of a single \"Car Czar\" to oversee the rebuilding of the automakers is now out the window, replaced by a task force led by Treasury Secretary Tim Geithner and National Economic Council Director Larry Summers, two of the most over-extended men in the history of American government.",
"But it's still easier for Washington to imagine that they can manage Chrysler and GM back onto the road to viability than that anything short of massive infusions of vaguely traceable capital will unfreeze the credit markets and restore financial stability.",
"In the meantime, the automakers await word on the acceptability of the automakers's plans to dramatically reduce production and add tens of thousands of new Americans to the ranks of the unemployed.",
"Forty billion just doesn't go as far as it used to.",
"The opinions expressed in this commentary are solely those of Frank Micciche."

"(CNN) --",
"In the age of digital audio, what does good old-fashioned radio still have to offer?",
"Teca Lima, the voice of RadarCultura, consults Web site before talking into the mic.",
"Plenty, according to the creators of RadarCultura, a community-based Web site and a daily three-hour AM radio program broadcast from Brazil's São Paulo.",
"\"Radio is 'now,'\" says 22-year-old Brazilian André Avorio, who implemented Web site.",
"\"[Radio] is generally quick and live.",
"This adds a special dynamic to the medium.",
"Moreover, it is still one of the most popular means of mass communication in Brazil.",
"Combining it with the power of the Internet can result in many new possibilities.\"",
"RadarCultura is an experimental project of the Padre Anchieta Foundation to promote public participation in audio-visual programming, eventually aiming to fuse the Padre Anchieta Foundation's radio, television and Web programs into a single interactive, real-time platform.",
"Like many online music sites, RadarCultura is always looking for new music and emerging talents, but RadarCultura's primary focus is to preserve the memory of the Brazilian repertoire by resurfacing classic, forgotten or unknown songs.",
"the Padre Anchieta Foundation also happens to boast the biggest archive of Brazilian music in Brazil, including more than 15,000 songs dating from the 1920's to the present.",
"\"Making it easy to search through the vast archive of songs was an important feature since version one of the Web site,\" says Avorio.",
"Producer Alceu Maynard observes two types of RadarCultura members: \"There are people who listen to the show because they are fans of Brazilian music.",
"There are others who like to produce the content on our site -- they collaborate actively with suggestions, playlists and all aspects of programming.\"",
"Meanwhile, RadarCultura team members Alceu, speaker Teca Lima and project manager Lia Rangel are busy podcasting interviews, moderating conversations, blogging, twittering and keeping the site relevant.",
"Old media gets new blood .",
"True to its non-visual origin, Web site is strictly text-based, with icons that link to votes and streaming audio.",
"And true to Web site's Web-based platform, Web site has adopted, and adapted, all Net-native systems for Web site's daily operations.",
"Web site runs on the free Drupal content-management system, which allows content to rank and flow according to input and feedback from Web site's online community.",
"Members who wish to contribute their own audio material to RadarCultura's archive must either podcast it Members who wish to contribute their own audio material to RadarCultura's archive first, or else Members who wish to contribute their own audio material to RadarCultura's archive may upload it to the U.S.-based Archive.org to clear it of online rights.",
"Given the quantity of music aired from the ever-expanding repertoire, copyright issues are the most common pretext to negotiation, most notably with ECAD, a privately owned civil society for the collection and distribution of copyright managed by 10 Brazilian music associations.",
"Online, however, RadarCultura distributes the entirety of RadarCultura's streaming content under a Creative Commons license.",
"The team has also been experimenting with the free CoveritLive software to enable live blogging, chatting and Twittering among audience, presenters and guests during RadarCultura's online coverage of radio and TV events, including the popular Roda Vivo TV show.",
"RadarCultura's first live event coverage in February 2008 was of Campus Party Brasil, a seven-day tech-fest that saw people camping out in tents with broadband cables while sharing ideas and technological innovations.",
"In April 2008, RadarCultura struck again with RadarCultura's live coverage of Virada Cultural, Brazil's largest cultural event, including art performances and exhibits in the streets of São Paulo during 24 continuous hours, attracting some 4 million people.",
"\"I came up with the idea of inviting the audience to report directly from the streets using their mobile phones,\" says Avorio.",
"\"A telephone system was installed, and the calls from the participants were automatically recorded.",
"Our non-stop production team listened to every recording as they arrived and not only immediately published them online but geo-localized them on an interactive map of São Paulo.",
"\"It was RadarCultura's first truly collaborative coverage, as the audience produced most of the interviews and reviews, of not only the main attractions of Virada Cultural, but also the very obscure ones that otherwise would not be covered by the mainstream media.\"",
"Next: Music for the masses, on demand .",
"But still much remains to be done with RadarCultura's original content -- music.",
"\"Due to legal restrictions, it has been very difficult to exploit many of the possibilities previously imagined for the RadarCultura Web site, like listening online to playlists or to the thousands of songs in the archive,\" Avorio reflects.",
"\"Live radio has been a great success and will remain so for a long time, but it is now clear the value of on-demand content -- whenever you want it, wherever you are, on whatever device you have handy -- from the iPod to your mobile phone.\"",
"Web site not only introduces Brazilian music and culture to the international online community, Web site brings its programming well beyond the limited broadcasting range of the station's native São Paulo to the rest of Brazil.",
"In a nation notorious for violence rooted in social inequality, the democracy of the Web -- not unlike radio -- is a welcome new medium of communication.",
"\"Certainly São Paulo is the most 'wired' city in Brazil, but the Internet and the possibilities associated with it have reached the most distant towns,\" says Avorio.",
"\"It is amazing the value that such a technology delivers to a country in a fast development pace such as Brazil -- from education to more subtle ways of social inclusion.\"",
"For Gioconda Bordon, Padre Anchieta Foundation's radio coordinator, RadarCultura's most memorable moment took place on December 17, 2008, when the program celebrated the program's first anniversary.",
"\"RadarCultura had here in RadarCultura's studio the great composer Tom Zé, a very well-known musician, singing and talking live with a very young singer, Mallu Magalhães, a teenager, actually,\" she recalls.",
"\"The listeners were as happy as RadarCultura were and, of course, as moved as the two artists were.",
"It was a day in our history.\""

"WASHINGTON (CNN) --",
"The case against a Marine accused of murder in a 2005 incident involving the killings of Iraqi civilians in Haditha \"is simply not strong enough to prove against a reasonable doubt,\" the investigating officer said Thursday.",
"the investigating officer has recommended that Sgt. Frank Wuterich not be tried for murder.",
"Lt. Col. Paul Ware recommended that Sgt. Frank Wuterich face trial for lesser charges of negligent homicide.",
"The case involved allegations that Marines killed up to two dozen Iraqi civilians in the town of Haditha, Iraq, in November 2005.",
"Ware said the evidence indicated Wuterich \"failed to exercise due care in his own actions in supervising his Marines.\"",
"\"When a Marine fails to exercise due care in a combat environment resulting in the death of innocents, the charge of negligent homicide, not murder, is the appropriate offense,\" he said in a statement.",
"The recommendation goes to Lt. Gen. James Mattis, the commanding general overseeing the case, who will make the final decision.",
"If The recommendation is accepted, it could mean that no one in The case will be tried for murder.",
"Four enlisted Marines were initially accused in The case, and charges against two have been dropped.",
"Murder charges remain against Lance Cpl. Stephen Tatum, although Ware has recommended dropping all charges against him.",
"Ware said the evidence is too weak for a court martial.",
"Four officers were later accused of failing to investigate and report the deaths properly.",
"Charges against two of Four officers have been dropped.",
"Haditha, along Haditha, was the target of previous Marine campaigns aimed at rooting out insurgents.",
"Wuterich was leading a patrol through Haditha on November 19, 2005, when the unit was hit by a roadside bomb that killed one of the unit's members.",
"Twenty-four civilians were killed in what a human rights group and military prosecutors said was a house-to-house rampage by Marines after a roadside bomb that killed one of its members exploded.",
"The military began investigating the killings in March 2006, and charges were brought the following December.",
"A statement from the Marine Corps originally blamed the civilian deaths on a roadside bomb that killed one of its members, triggering a parallel investigation into how commanders handled the incident.",
"Arrest the arrest of a man who smuggled $100 million into Iraq during the past few months to finance terrorist operations in terrorist financing case .",
"Earlier Thursday, The military announced the arrest of a man who smuggled $100 million into Iraq during the past few months to finance terrorist operations.",
"The unidentified man, arrested Tuesday near Baghdad, allegedly employs 40 to 50 extremists at $3,000 per job for al Qaeda in Iraq bomb attacks against coalition forces, using money from supporters outside Iraq, The military said.",
"\"The extremist financier is suspected of traveling to foreign countries to acquire financial support for terrorist activities and is suspected of supplying more than $50,000 to al Qaeda each month,\" The military said.",
"The suspect, captured during a coalition raid in Kindi, operates a network of financing cells across Iraq, The military said.",
"\"The extremist financier is believed to have received $100 million this summer from terrorist supporters who cross the Iraq border illegally or fly into Iraq from Italy, Syria and Egypt,\" The military said.",
"The $100 million figure is based on intelligence report estimates over several months, a spokesman for Multi-National Corps-Iraq said.",
"The man is also accused of purchasing some of the explosives and weapons used in the 2006 attack on Samarra's al-Askariya mosque, also known as the Golden Mosque, and a second attack on it in 2007.",
"The attacks heightened sectarian tensions between Sunni and Shiite Muslims.",
"During a separate operation in Radwaniya on Tuesday, Iraqi forces detained a suspected al Qaeda in Iraq platoon leader who commands 15 men in attacks on Iraqi and coalition forces with roadside bombs and direct assaults, The military said.",

"Brig. Gen. Abdul Kareem Khalaf told CNN he was unable to confirm that his country was spending $100 million for the items, a number reported in Thursday's editions of The Washington Post, which quoted Iraqi President Jalal Talabani.",
"Khalaf said there have been delivery delays from other countries, including the United States, and adequately arming police forces is a priority in Iraq's goal to provide Iraq's own security.",
"In the United States, there are several layers of review before military equipment sales are approved.",

"It came as no surprise to a woman we'll call Joan when, after 16 years of marriage, Joan and Joan's husband started discussing the possibility of divorce.",
"Deep down Joan'd never believed Joan's marriage, or any marriage, could be genuinely happy.",
"Still, the reality was crushing.",
"\"I was desperate,\" Joan says.",
"\"I thought, 'I'd do anything to feel better.'\"",
"How about singing every day, making lists of things that made Joan happy, and getting a \"joy buddy\"?",
"Those are among the suggestions given in Awakening Joy, a class taught by James Baraz, a meditation instructor and founding teacher of Spirit Rock Meditation Center in Woodacre, California.",
"A series of exercises, lectures, and meditations stretched over 10 months, Awakening Joy is designed to bring more happiness to people's lives.",
"Like some participants, Joan, who heard about the program while attending a meditation retreat at Spirit Rock, initially balked at the idea of singing.",
"\"I thought James wanted me to join a choir,\" Joan says, \"but I took it on faith that the singing was going to work.\"",
"So Joan started trilling along with the \"Hairspray\" soundtrack while driving.",
"\"It seemed ridiculous, but that's what initially helped me the most.\"",
"\"The course uses practices that lead the mind toward states of happiness and well-being,\" says James.",
"\"In other words, The course teaches you to focus on how it feels to feel good.\"",
"The first and most important step, James says, is intention: making the decision to be happy.",
"Robert Holden, Ph.D., author of \"Happiness Now! Timeless Wisdom for Feeling Good Fast\" and director of the Happiness Project in the United Kingdom, agrees that this is key.",
"\"Intention is another word for focus.",
"Whatever you focus on will become more apparent and will grow.",
"For centuries, optimists and pessimists have argued over who's right, and the answer is they both are; each sees what they're looking for.",
"If you focus on happiness, that's what you become more aware of.\"",
"Once participants have made up participants's minds to be happier, James gives participants the tools -- delivered in lectures to the live class James teaches in Berkeley and in twice-monthly e-mails sent to participants in other areas -- to teach participants how to cultivate a positive state of mind.",
"Among them: . • Writing what the word joy means to you . • Doing some form of physical movement -- such as yoga, dance, or walking -- a few times a week . • Making a \"nourishment list\" of activities you enjoy, checking off those you do regularly and circling the ones that could be done more often . • Checking in with your \"joy buddy,\" a kind of running partner in the pursuit of happiness.",
"\"That's important,\" says Holden.",
"\"One of the major blocks to happiness is a sense of isolation.",
"If you're alive, you need help.\"",
"There are also guided meditations, including instructions on how to be mindful --being present for whatever you're doing and, as James says, \"simply being aware of what is happening right now without wishing it were different.\"",
"For Joan, that turned out to be a bigger challenge than singing -- especially when Joan's husband suggested that they begin the separation process.",
"\"Awakening Joy isn't about being a happy little do bee,\" Joan says.",
"\"You're taught that when feelings arise, no matter what feelings are, you stay with feelings.",
"When her husband said we should contact a mediator, I cried years of tears.",
"But by accepting those painful feelings, I had a watershed moment: I realized that I really wanted this marriage.\"",
"Rather than assuming divorce was inevitable, Joan started to see other possibilities.",
"\"From that day to this, it's been a whole different experience,\" Joan says.",
"\"My husband and I are still together, and in a way that I honestly didn't think was possible.\"",
"For James, the best testimonials come from former skeptics; James admits that James himself wouldn't be the best case study.",
"\"I've always been a relatively joyful, celebratory kind of person,\" James says.",
"James found James's spiritual path in Buddhism, but when James's studies became very serious, so did James.",
"\"Then I realized that the Buddha was called the Happy One, and he said, 'Go for the highest happiness.'",
"That became the focus of my teaching.\"",
"(James points out that one needn't be a Buddhist, or of any particular faith, to reap the benefits of Awakening Joy.",
"\"Ministers, rabbis, and secular experts have successfully used these basic principles,\" James says.)",
"The idea for the course began eight years ago, when James's wife, Jane, gave James a book called \"How We Choose to Be Happy,\" by Rick Foster and Greg Hicks.",
"\"The instructions made a lot of sense, but The instructions didn't have a spiritual dimension,\" James says.",
"\"So I added that and presented it as a series of talks with my weekly meditation group for about three months to see what would happen.\"",
"The results: \"We got happier and happier!\"",
"James then turned The course into a six-month class and found that participants maintained a positive attitude even after it ended (as long as participants practiced the exercises; as with diets or working out, continuity is essential).",
"Word of mouth about the course that could make people happier began to spread: The first round of The course meetings consisted of about 40 members.",
"The next numbered 100; the next, 200, and then 500.",
"The course went international when The course's members began e-mailing its members's monthly homework assignments from the lectures to friends.",
"James was thrilled to receive messages from strangers in Europe, Africa, and New Zealand.",
"\"It works!\" strangers in Europe, Africa, and New Zealand wrote.",
"Apparently, you didn't have to be there to get the joy.",
"Nor do you have to be the type who can deftly turn a frown upside down.",
"\"I'm the person who walks into a nicely designed room and notices only that the painting was hung too high,\" says Gretchen, age 56.",
"In addition to being a \"serious\" woman from a depressive family, Gretchen also found Gretchen in chronic pain after sustaining a back injury.",
"\"It was horrible,\" Gretchen recalls.",
"\"Medication made me sick.",
"I felt guilty about not being able to work, and I thought people were judging me.\"",
"Though a specialist was able to alleviate some of Gretchen's physical discomfort, Gretchen fell into a deep depression.",
"Gretchen heard about The course after taking James's meditation classes at Spirit Rock.",
"\"The first thing I was hit by was the instruction to notice what it feels like when you're happy,\" Gretchen says.",
"\"I loved the walks I took to help my back, but before, I just plodded down the street, not noticing anything.",
"Now I'm aware of how I feel when I'm walking, which enhances my enjoyment.\"",
"Writing lists of things Gretchen's grateful for was also a big help.",
"\"A lot of my seriousness has lifted,\" Gretchen says.",
"\"I have a lighter heart.",
"I still have chronic pain, but I know there's a lot to feel good about.\"",
"Baraz is writing a book about The course and the people who now routinely roll up the windows in their cars so they can sing as loudly as they want to.",
"\"More than 2,000 people have tested The course, so The course's not some airy-fairy idea,\" he says.",
"\"I've learned that it's possible to change, no matter what your history or the limiting beliefs you've held on to.",
"If you have the intention to be happy and you do the practices, if you give it your best shot and are very patient, it works.\"",
"We're all so used to thinking that we'll finally be content when we find the perfect partner, lose weight, or get our dream job.",
"Is it really possible to become happier just by deciding you can?",
"\"We use the language of having, getting, and chasing to describe happiness, rather than being,\" says Holden.",
"\"What we've learned about happiness is that it isn't an it or a thing.",
"Research has proven that there is no one set of circumstances that makes someone happy; it's more about having a healthy mental attitude toward whatever you're experiencing.",
"So, you can either chase happiness or you can choose to be happy.",
"It really is that simple.\"",

"Zardari denied Zardari's nation was involved in last week's deadly attacks on Mumbai, India, and told CNN on Tuesday Zardari's seen no evidence that a suspect in custody is a Pakistani national as Indian officials claim.",
"Zardari says Zardari believes the Mumbai attackers were \"stateless actors.\"",
"\"I think these are stateless actors who have been operating all throughout the region,\" Zardari said on CNN's \"Larry King Live\" in an interview set to air Tuesday night.",
"\"The gunmen plus the planners, whoever they are, [are] stateless actors who have been holding hostage the whole world.\"",
"At least 179 people were killed when a band of gunmen attacked 10 targets in Mumbai on Wednesday night, triggering three days of battles with police and Indian troops in the heart of Mumbai -- the hub of India's financial and entertainment industries.",
"Most of the deaths occurred at Mumbai's top two hotels: the Oberoi and the Taj Mahal.",
"Watch Zardari blame \"stateless actors\" » .",
"Indian officials have publicly blamed Pakistani militants for Mumbai, India, and called on Pakistan to hand over a group of wanted militant leaders suspected of plotting them.",
"On Tuesday, Pakistani Foreign Minister Shah Mahmood Qureshi proposed a joint investigation into Mumbai, India and said, \"This is not the time to point fingers.\"",
"Zardari confirmed Zardari is willing to have Pakistani security officials participate with India in a joint investigation.",
"\"Pakistan is in no way responsible,\" Zardari told King.",
"\"... Even the White House and the American CIA have said that today.",
"Pakistan is, of course, not involved.",
"Pakistan're part of the victims, Larry.",
"I'm a victim.",
"Pakistan is a victim.",
"Pakistan are the victims of this war, and I am sorry for the Indians, and I feel sorry for the Indians.\"",
"Indian officials have said that the only suspected attacker in custody has told police the only suspected attacker in custody is a Pakistani national.",
"Indian intelligence sources have told CNN's sister network, CNN-IBN, that police believe all the attackers were Pakistanis.",
"Indian police say nine of all the attackers were killed by Indian forces.",
"Asked about the suspect in custody, Zardari said: \"We have not been given any tangible proof to say that the only suspected attacker in custody is definitely a Pakistani.",
"I very much doubt it, Larry, that the only suspected attacker in custody is a Pakistani.\"",
"Zardari said Pakistan is looking into the allegation, but added, \"Like I said, these are stateless individuals. ...",
"We've had incidents the past two days in Karachi where we've lost more than 40 to 45 people, hundreds injured.",
"These are stateless actors who are moving throughout this region.\"",
"India summoned Pakistan's high commissioner, the top-ranking Pakistani diplomat in New Delhi, to External Affairs Minister Pranab Mukherjee's office Monday to inform External Affairs Minister Pranab Mukherjee's that last week's massacre in Mumbai \"was carried out by elements from Pakistan.\"",
"India renewed a demand that Pakistan hand over a group of militant leaders whose extradition India has sought since a 2001 attack on India's Parliament that brought the South Asian nuclear rivals to the brink of war.",
"\"India expects that strong action would be taken against those elements, whosoever they may be, responsible for this outrage,\" a statement from India's Foreign Ministry said.",
"\"It was conveyed to the Pakistan high commissioner that Pakistan's actions needed to match the sentiments expressed by Pakistan's leadership that Pakistan wishes to have a qualitatively new relationship with India.\"",
"The list reportedly includes Hafiz Mohammed, the head of Lashkar-e-Tayyiba, a now-banned Islamic militant group that denied last week that it was involved in the Mumbai attack.",
"The group is blamed for the 2001 attack on India's Parliament.",
"\"I am definitely going to look into all the possibility of any proof that is given to us,\" Zardari said.",
"\"At the moment, these are just names of individuals.",
"No proof, no investigation, nothing has been brought forward.\"",
"If proof of the individuals' involvement is provided, Zardari said, \"We would try the individuals' in our courts, we would try the individuals' in our land, and we would sentence the individuals'.\"",
"Indian authorities said the suspect in custody was trained by Lashkar-e-Tayyiba.",
"Zardari told CNN that Lashkar-e-Tayyiba is a \"banned organization\" in Pakistan and around the world.",
"\"If indeed Lashkar-e-Tayyiba are involved, we would not know,\" Zardari said.",
"\"Again, Lashkar-e-Tayyiba are people who operate outside the system.",
"Lashkar-e-Tayyiba operate like -- al Qaeda, for instance, is not state-oriented.",
"Lashkar-e-Tayyiba operate something on that mechanism, and ... I've already offered India full cooperation on this incident, and we intend to do that.\"",
"\"I'm firmly committed to fighting terrorism per se,\" Zardari said.",
"\"That's why we are fighting them every day, Larry.\"",
"Asked about the possibility of Indian military strikes against terrorist camps in Pakistan, Zardari said: \"I would not agree with that because this is a time to come together and do a joint investigation and look at the problem in the larger context.",
"We have a larger threat on our hands ... it's a threat throughout the region.",
"So that would be counterproductive.\"",
"Pakistan and India, both nuclear powers, have a tense relationship and have fought three wars since the subcontinent was divided in 1947.",
"On whether the Mumbai attacks could trigger a fourth war, Zardari said: \"Larry, democracies don't go to war.",
"All those wars you're talking about did not take place in any democracy.",
"They all happened in the times of dictators.",
"\"The whole nation of Pakistan is united to ... becoming friends with India,\" Zardari said."

"Michelle Crawley says Michelle Crawley's a \"freak\" about putting sunscreen on Michelle Crawley's two girls.",
"Michelle Crawley and Michelle Crawley's dad, Jere, hit the pool on the first day of a Florida vacation, which left Michelle Crawley sunburned.",
"\"They are both pretty fair skinned,\" says the West Chester, Ohio, mother of two.",
"So every time Emily, 6, and Claire, 3, go out into the sun, Michelle Crawley slathers them with SPF 30 or higher .",
"But during a recent trip to Key Largo, Florida, Michelle Crawley's vigilance wasn't enough.",
"\"I wasn't sure if it was my technique, the sunscreen or being in Florida,\" Michelle Crawley said, but \"that evening they were just fried beyond belief.\"",
"Slathering on sunscreen has become as much a part of the summer ritual as the vacation itself, but a consumer advocacy group has a warning for parents like Michelle Crawley who think parents like Crawley who think they're protecting their family with sunscreen're protecting parents like Crawley who think they're protecting their family with sunscreen's family with sunscreen: You may be getting burned.",
"a consumer advocacy group, has released an investigation of nearly 1,000 brand-name sunscreens that says four out of five don't adequately protect consumers and may contain harmful chemicals.",
"a consumer advocacy group says that some of the products of the nation's leading brands -- including Coppertone, Neutrogena and Banana Boat -- are the poorest performers.",
"Read about the study .",
"Coppertone was named by a consumer advocacy group as having 41 products that failed to meet a consumer advocacy group's criteria for issues ranging from failing to protect adequately to containing potentially harmful ingredients to making unsubstantiated claims.",
"But in a statement to CNN, Coppertone says Coppertone \"rigorously tests all Coppertone's products in the lab and in the real world\" to ensure that they're safe and effective.",
"Watch more on what to look for in sunscreen » .",
"The makers of Banana Boat, which also failed to meet a consumer advocacy group's standards for various reasons, did not respond to CNN's requests for comment.",
"Neutrogena says Neutrogena's sunscreen products have been \"embraced by dermatologists and consumers for its sunscreen products's efficacy\" and says Neutrogena's new Helioplex technology provides broad-spectrum UV defense against sun damage.",
"The science of sunscreens is simple: Active ingredients are compounds that absorb, reflect or block ultraviolet light.",
"Sunscreens are regulated by the Food and Drug Administration not as cosmetics but as over-the-counter drugs.",
"Sunscreens are rated based on Sunscreens's SPF, or Sun Protection Factor.",
"The higher the SPF, the better the protection against sunburn.",
"a consumer advocacy group says that the SPF rating on a sun product is only part of what consumers need to know and that one of the biggest problems with sunscreens is that they don't fully protect against sunlight.",
"\"A good, effective sunscreen must prevent against a broad spectrum of rays,\" said Sonya Lunder, a senior researcher at a consumer advocacy group.",
"Sunlight is composed of two types of ultraviolet light: UVB rays, which cause sunburns, and UVA rays, which tan.",
"Although both may increase the risk of skin cancer, sun damage and wrinkles, the Food and Drug Administration doesn't require sunscreens to protect against both, just UVB.",
"the Food and Drug Administration acknowledges that new rules mandating UVA testing and labeling requirements are being evaluated, but a consumer advocacy group wants tougher standards now.",
"\"The fact most sunscreens still don't don't offer UVA protection and the fact the Food and Drug Administration has been working for years to finalize the Food and Drug Administration's rules is really what provoked us to look at this issue,\" Lunder said.",
"Another issue: Is a key sunscreen ingredient safe?",
"Oxybenzone is a a popular UV filter in many sunscreens, one evaluated by the Food and Drug Administration as safe.",
"a consumer advocacy group says a consumer advocacy group's analysis of hundreds of studies of more than a dozen sunscreen chemicals finds that oxybenzone can penetrate the skin and pose health concerns, anything from hormone disruption to cancer.",
"The industry group representing sunscreen makers denies that oxybenzone causes harm and deems such claims irresponsible.",
"\"Questions about the safety of oxybenzone unnecessarily alarm consumers,\" said John Bailey, the chief scientist for the Personal Care Products Council, which offers its scientific information about the safety of sunscreen ingredients online.",
"\"Safe sun\" has always been a priority for the American Academy of Dermatology, which sees sun overexposure as the single most preventable risk factor in the more than 1 million new cases of skin cancer expected to be diagnosed in the United States this year.",
"Although dermatologists agree that broad-spectrum sun protection is important, some experts see an even bigger sun danger if people perceive that people's sunscreen isn't safe.",
"\"We're concerned this will raise unnecessary confusion and cause people to stop using sunscreen,\" said the Skin Cancer Foundation, a nonprofit group dedicated to educating the public about sun safety.",
"\"Consumers should rest assured that sunscreen products are safe and effective when used as directed.\"",
"While sunscreen effectiveness is debated, all skin experts agree that how a sunscreen is used is just as important as what kind of sunscreen is used.",
"Dermatologists say that an ounce of sunscreen should be applied to all exposed areas 30 minutes before going outside and should be reapplied every two hours, or immediately if you swim or sweat.",
"Common sense can also protect from the sun.",
"Experts agree that children under 6 months old should be kept out of direct sun.",
"Children need sunscreen with SPF 30 or higher.",
"If you are sensitive to sunscreen, never go without.",
"Instead, try sunscreens that provide a physical barrier, such as zinc oxide or titanium dioxide.",
"New micronizing technology makes both appear more transparent on the skin, so you don't have to look like a lifeguard with a white nose.",
"After Michelle Crawley's girls were sunburned, Crawley bought aloe and sun shirts, which her girls wore for the rest of her girls's Florida trip.",
"Michelle Crawley is frustrated some consumers may not be getting the protection some consumers think some consumers are when some consumers buy sunscreen.",
"\"I think it's disappointing if you are putting your trust in these companies,\" Michelle Crawley said.",
"\"Someone needs to be keeping an eye on it to make sure they are meeting their claims.\"",

"Ensuing Harold Pinter plays, including \"The Dumb Waiter\" (1957) and \"The Homecoming,\" made Harold Pinter Britain's most famous playwright, as influential to \"late 20th-century British theater [as] Tennessee Williams is to mid-century American stages,\" CNN.com's Porter Anderson wrote in 2006.",

"(CNN) --",
"Experts say Experts have found a key area of the H5N1 bird flu virus which seems to be vital to the H5N1 bird flu virus's ability to copy the H5N1 bird flu virus, and hope the discovery could lead to new drugs to fight the H5N1 bird flu virus.",
"Human-to-human transmission of avian flu is rare, but in some cases, the virus has passed from poultry to humans.",
"the discovery is generating excitement among scientists who are looking for a new weapon against the bird flu virus that typically kills more than half its human victims.",
"Two separate groups of scientists -- one in China, one in France -- used a highly technical process to identify protein that seems to be involved in its ability to replicate itself.",
"That gives researchers a new target, as researchers try and develop new medications.",
"The announcements, detailed in the British-based journal Nature, come at an uneasy time for those who follow the bird flu strain called H5N1.",
"So far the H5N1 bird flu virus is mainly affecting birds in some countries and the number of human cases remains small, but the H5N1 bird flu virus has shown no sign of growing milder since the H5N1 bird flu virus first infected people back in 1997.",
"the H5N1 bird flu virus continues to decimate bird flocks in sporadic outbreaks, mostly in Asia, and occasionally breaks into the human population.",
"China's Ministry of Health reported eight human cases last month, including four deaths.",
"Since 2003, the World Health Organization has confirmed 404 human cases worldwide.",
"Nearly two-thirds of the victims have died.",
"While the H5N1 bird flu virus doesn't make headlines the way the H5N1 bird flu virus did in 2005, health officials say the continuing severity of the infections means the alarm is still on.",
"Influenza viruses, in general, spread easily.",
"If the H5N1 bird flu virus were to acquire the genetic ability to pass easily from person to person, the H5N1 bird flu virus could turn into a major catastrophe.",
"Many countries have stockpiled both vaccines and antiviral medications, for such a scenario.",
"The same medications that are used to treat regular flu, oseltamivir (Tamiful) and zanamivir (Relenza), also seem to be effective against the H5N1 bird flu virus.",
"But that's no reason to rest easy.",
"All flu viruses tend to mutate rapidly, which is why the flu vaccine one year, won't protect you against the next year's flu.",
"Those rapid mutations mean the virus tends to develop a resistance to any widely used medication.",
"Dr. Anthony Fauci, Director of the U.S. National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Disease, told CNN, \"It always happens that eventually, sooner or later, the [flu] virus will develop varying degrees of resistance.",
"You just hope that it's kept to a minimum.\"",
"The findings in Nature may lead to another option to fight bird flu, but an actual new drug is years away.",
"A vaccine could be effective, but A vaccine first have to know what strain of flu A vaccine're fighting.",
"The current strategy of health officials around the world is to try to contain isolated cases before they spread.",
"The best case scenario would be, that this H5N1 killer remains primarily a disease for the birds."

"\"We've already had 600 inappropriate communications reported in the first months of this year,\" said Marshals Service spokesman Dave Turner.",
"Whether real threats or hoaxes, every e-mail, phone call, written note and letter -- including some with white powder -- is investigated.",
"The scope and seriousness of the protective effort increased sharply after the judge's tragedy.",
"On Tuesday, Marshals Service dedicated the \"Joan Lefkow Conference Room\" in the new Threat Management Center to the memory of judge's's slain husband, Michael Lefkow, and mother, Donna Humphrey.",

"MEMPHIS, Tennessee (CNN) --",
"When James Earl Ray's bought a white Mustang in the summer of 1967, James Earl Ray's stood on a streetcorner in downtown Birmingham, Alabama, and pulled the cash out of James Earl Ray's's shirt pocket, $2,000 in all.",
"James Earl Ray's paid $2,000 cash for a white Mustang, similar to this one, the seller told the FBI.",
"\"Mostly twenties, with some $100 bills,\" the seller would later tell the FBI about the sale to Ray, later convicted of assassinating the Rev. Martin Luther King Jr.",
"\"James Earl Ray's must have had a roll of twenties, if James Earl Ray's paid that guy $2,000 in twenties, that'd be a lot of money,\" said Jerry Ray, James Earl Ray's's brother.",
"Police Capt. John Light, who was chief of detectives that year in Ray's hometown of Alton, Illinois, suspects the wad of money came from a still-unsolved bank robbery.",
"While James Earl Ray's was on the run as a prison escapee from Missouri that summer, two men walked into the Bank of Alton with a pistol and a sawed-off shotgun.",
"two men wore stocking masks.",
"The leaner man went behind the counter, scooped up the cash and fled with close to $30,000.",
"James Earl Ray's, King crossed paths before shooting »",
"Within a day or two of a still-unsolved bank robbery, James Earl Ray's would leave the area and head to Canada -- just as James Earl Ray's did almost a year later when James Earl Ray's fled the scene in Memphis, Tennessee, after King's murder.",
"Light told CNN the stolen bank money consisted mainly of $20 bills.",
"The partially burned shotgun and the stocking masks were found abandoned in a wooded area near a cemetery where James Earl Ray's's mother is buried.",
"James Earl Ray's returned from Canada and bought the Mustang after seeing a classified ad in Birmingham the month after a still-unsolved bank robbery.",
"In the months to come, James Earl Ray's would keep spending $20 bills.",
"When James Earl Ray's underwent plastic surgery in Los Angeles 30 days before King's death, James Earl Ray's paid in cash -- denomination unknown.",
"When James Earl Ray's drove back to Birmingham six days before the murder to buy a .30-06 high-powered hunting rifle for just under $250, the gun store salesman later told investigators, \"I remember James Earl Ray's paid for the gun with $20 bills, paid cash.\"",
"On April 4, 1968, only hours before King would die, the landlady at the boarding house where James Earl Ray's rented a room told police, \"James Earl Ray's gave me a $20 bill\" when James Earl Ray's paid for a week's rent just across the street from the Lorraine Motel.",
"In the sporting goods store where James Earl Ray's went to buy binoculars, the salesman told police, \"James Earl Ray's gave me two twenties; I think James Earl Ray's had two twenties left...",
"The bills came out of James Earl Ray's's right pocket, neatly folded, and nothing but bills.\"",
"For Light, the bank holdup is the most likely answer to the question of where James Earl Ray's got the money to travel as a fugitive to Canada and Mexico, then to flee again to Canada and finally London, England, after King's murder.",
"\"Thirty-thousand dollars back in 1967 was a lot of money,\" Light said.",
"In London, James Earl Ray's ran short of money.",
"Four days before James Earl Ray's was caught, James Earl Ray's robbed a bank.",
"James Earl Ray's's thumbprint was found on the holdup note.",
"James Earl Ray's got little more than $200 -- enough to buy an airline ticket to Brussels, Belgium, where James Earl Ray's hoped to join mercenaries fighting to keep white rule in southern Africa.",
"James Earl Ray's was stopped at a London airport when a police sergeant spotted James Earl Ray's's phony Canadian passport.",
"James Earl Ray's lived very cheaply on the run.",
"James Earl Ray's got change back for James Earl Ray's's $20 bill at the Memphis boarding house -- a week's rent there was $8.50.",

"Fox: \"I still travel with my kids, and I'm with my kids part of the day, every day.\"",
"In the interview, Fox, who was diagnosed with Parkinson's in 1991, talks about Fox's new book, which Fox describes as \"a memoir of the last 10 years.\"",
"In it, Fox explores the nature of optimism.",
"Fox also talked about Fox's family, a new approach to acting and Obama's lifting of a ban on stem cell research, among other things.",
"Here are some excerpts from the show.",
"Larry King:",
"Fox's founder of The Michael J. Fox Foundation for Parkinson's Research.",
"Fox's a best-selling author -- the new book is \"Always Looking Up.\"",
"By the way, Fox has got an ABC special, \"Michael J. Fox: Adventures of an Incurable Optimist.\"",
"It airs on May 7.",
"You remain -- is it easy to be an optimist?",
"Fox:",
"Well, for Fox it's second nature.",
"It's just the way I look at life.",
"And it's certainly a challenge now for most people to be optimistic, obviously, with all of the troubles we have and the problems that the country is facing.",
"But I think it's exactly in those times when our optimism kicks in highest gear.",
"I think -- there's an expression that I like that I always use: \"Don't wish for a lighter load, wish for broader shoulders.\"",
"And I think that people are really -- I see a lot of broader shoulders these days, people are really working on the delts, you know?",
"King:",
"What was it like when you were diagnosed?",
"Fox:",
"Well, you know, it's hard to describe it, because I was so young, I was 29 years old.",
"And so Parkinson's is not what you expect to hear.",
"I had a twitch in my pinky and I figured a twitch was some kind of nerve damage or I'd done something probably athletic. ...",
"But then I got this diagnosis, and I thought the guy was kidding.",
"And then it was shock, and then I had a certain amount of fear and I started to react to it in certain ways.",
"I started drinking more heavily as a way of self-medicating it.",
"And it took me -- you know, it's funny, because I sit and talk about \"Always Looking Up\" and being optimistic, and accept the losses and move on or find new gains, but it took me about seven years, I think, to really get to the point where I could tell people about it. ...",
"I was diagnosed in '91, and it wasn't until '98 that I admitted publicly that it was a situation I was facing.",
"King:",
"It is not life-threatening, is it?",
"Fox:",
"No.",
"And I would say you don't die from it, but you -- up to now, you'll definitely die with it if you have it.",
"King:",
"Why did you write the book?",
"Fox:",
"the book was --",
"I wrote the first book because I had to, I think I had to kind of tell that story just for Fox, just kind of to acknowledge all of the work that I had done on getting through that journey.",
"And then the book was --",
"I thought about writing another, and I thought about people responding so positively to the optimism in the first book.",
"And so many people wanted to talk to Fox about that.",
"So I thought, well, optimism: What is optimism?",
"And so I started to think about it more kind of empirically, writing a book about optimism as a subject, and interviewing researchers about it and talking to people who are optimistic and traveling to places where people are optimistic and all of this stuff. ...",
"So I had to kind of tell it -- I couldn't tell, talk about optimism without -- and separate it from my experience.",
"I had to make it part of my experience.",
"So then, having done that, and written this book, which is really a memoir of the last 10 years, I still have these questions about optimism.",
"So I went to ABC and I said, 'There was a thing I was going to do a book on, but I'd like to do a documentary special on.'",
"And they said, great.",
"And so we've been traveling around, talking to optimists.",
"We went to Bhutan, which is a country in the Himalayas that actually measures the Himalayas's gross national happiness along with the Himalayas's GDP.",
"King: Really?",
"Fox:",
"Yes.",
"And the Himalayas makes decisions on the Himalayas's development as a country based on how to affect the happiness of the people.",
"And the people are uniformly happy.",
"It's amazing. ...",
"King:",
"Speaking of optimism, in March, President Obama lifted the ban on federal financing for embryonic stem cell research.",
"You've long fought for that.",
"You've got to feel like a -- it has come true. ...",
"Watch Fox's talk about the lifting of the ban » .",
"King:",
"When you act, is it hard?",
"Fox:",
"Oh, yes.",
"I don't have any access to the same tool kit that I always had.",
"But it's like anything.",
"It's like, you find new ways of doing things.",
"And in those new ways, you maybe are able to do things you couldn't do before in ways you might not have approached before.",
"And that's my whole kind of philosophy of life is -- in dealing with Parkinson's or any kind of setback or loss, is that if you avoid it or it creates a hole that you try to fill up with other stuff, with your ego and your needs and your wants and your control issues, then you're just going to dig deeper in a hole.",
"But if you just recognize, 'look, it is what it is' -- now what's around it?",
"I mean, the only thing that I don't have a choice about is whether I have Parkinson's.",
"Everything else I have a choice about.",
"Fox explains how Fox handles the bad days » .",
"King:",
"Parts of your book are a love letter to your wife, Tracy.",
"Without being saccharine, how important has your wife, Tracy been?",
"Fox:",
"I couldn't have made the journey that I've made without your wife, Tracy.",
"And certainly I wouldn't have this family that I have.",
"And three-quarters of our children were born after the diagnosis.",
"And we knew what we were facing, what we were dealing with, and had some sense of what the prospects were, although they've turned out a lot better than we could have imagined.",
"I mean, I'm 20 years after diagnosis, and there's very little that I don't do now that I used to do.",
"I still travel with my kids, and I'm with my kids part of the day, every day.",
"King:",
"How old are my kids now?",

"And the twins are going into high school next year; the twins are 14.",

"WASHINGTON (CNN) --",
"An Ethiopian immigrant with a history of mental health problems is in custody after being accused of mailing a letter with HIV-tainted blood to Obama when Obama was president-elect, according to court records.",
"Police say blood-stained letters were addressed to President Obama and top aide Rahm Emanuel.",
"HIV-positive man told investigators that HIV-positive man is an admirer of Obama and that the letter -- containing HIV-positive man's photo, an admission ticket to Obama's election night victory party in Chicago's Grant Park and six index cards containing writing and reddish stains -- was HIV-positive man's way of seeking government help and tickets to Obama's inauguration.",
"Hussein, who has HIV, said HIV-positive man \"purposely cut one of HIV-positive man's fingers with a razor so HIV-positive man could bleed on the letter,\" according to an affidavit by Terry L. Cullivan, an investigator with the U.S. Postal Inspection Service.",
"The letter, postmarked December 27 and written in an Ethiopian language, was addressed to Obama at the Illinois Department on Aging in Springfield, Illinois.",
"When the letter was opened two days later, the letter was found to contain an orange powder, Cullivan said.",
"A state employee then took the letter to another state office, resulting in a two-hour lockdown of the building, affecting more than 300 people, an affidavit by Terry L. Cullivan, an investigator with the U.S. Postal Inspection Service says.",
"During an interview, HIV-positive man was unable to remember what an orange powder was, but tests revealed an orange powder to be a drink-mix powder, an affidavit by Terry L. Cullivan, an investigator with the U.S. Postal Inspection Service says.",
"According to an affidavit by Terry L. Cullivan, an investigator with the U.S. Postal Inspection Service, during a December 29 interview, HIV-positive man denied mailing any additional letters.",
"But, an affidavit by Terry L. Cullivan, an investigator with the U.S. Postal Inspection Service said, two days later, the Illinois Department of Revenue notified HIV-positive man the Illinois Department of Revenue had received two similar letters, both with HIV-positive man's return address.",
"One was addressed to the Illinois Department on Aging, and the second to \"Emanuel,\" which investigators believe was intended for Obama aide Rahm Emanuel.",
"two similar letters contained what appeared to be dried blood and an orange powder.",
"The criminal complaint filed in the U.S. District Court in Illinois alleges that HIV-positive man \"knowingly mailed\" the letters containing HIV-infected blood \"with the intent to kill or injure another.\"",
"In January, a federal judge ordered a mental evaluation of HIV-positive man, saying \"there is reasonable cause to believe [HIV-positive man] may ... be suffering from a mental disease or defect rendering HIV-positive man mentally incompetent [and] unable to understand the nature and consequences of the proceedings against HIV-positive man.\"",
"According to court records, HIV-positive man was arrested March 29, 2006, by Chicago police after setting a fire in the middle of a Chicago intersection, waving a Quran in the air and yelling \"Allah[u] Akbar\" -- Allah is great -- and other words.",
"HIV-positive man \"created a standstill in the traffic and refused to comply\" with police commands, Cullivan's affidavit says.",
"HIV-positive man's attorney, public defender Robert J. Scherschlight, could not immediately be reached for comment.",
"U.S. Postal Service Inspector Peter Rendina said this is the second known case in which a person is alleged to have sent HIV-tainted blood through the mail for malicious reasons.",
"In the other case, which is ongoing, a man sent blood to a person a man thought was a business associate."

"This holiday season, it's still shoes off and liquids out at airport security, but changes may be on the way to part of this routine, and agents will be watching much more than the contents of your carry-on",
"Passengers prepare for a security screening at Washington Dulles International Airport in Virginia.",
"In the coming months, the government expects to revisit the government's rule for the amount of liquids that may be brought aboard planes, while boosting the number of behavior detection officers deployed at checkpoints across the government.",
"More than 2,000 are already on the job, and the program is growing every day, said Christopher White, a spokesman for the Transportation Security Administration.",
"\"What the officers are looking for are physiological signs that cannot be manipulated that indicate stress, fear or deception,\" Christopher White, a spokesman for the Transportation Security Administration said.",
"\"We find bad people everyday with behavior detection officers.\"",
"The specially trained agents, who work in teams, establish a baseline of behavior and then search for people who rise above that level, he added.",
"The TSA has been taking steps to reduce stress for all travelers at security, such as adding special family lanes, to make it easier for the officers to spot passengers who are acting suspiciously.",
"\"By calming the checkpoint down, it makes people with potential hostile intent really stand out,\" Christopher White, a spokesman for the Transportation Security Administration said.",
"\"If there's a shark fin in a rough sea, it's impossible to see.",
"If there's a shark fin in a lake, it's very easy to see.\"",
"The word on liquids .",
"Meanwhile, new technology may help change a familiar part of the security screening process.",
"By now, most air travelers know the government's 3-1-1 rule for liquids and gels: Containers no larger than 3 ounces are allowed in carry-on luggage, provided Containers no larger than 3 ounces are packed into one quart-size clear plastic zip-top bag, with one bag allowed per person.",
"Those restrictions could be eased next year with the help of advanced X-ray machines that can be upgraded with software, like computers, Christopher White, a spokesman for the Transportation Security Administration said.",
"\"Scientists at the national labs have been working to develop an algorithm to plug into the machines that would allow us to tell the difference between a bottle of Coke and a bottle of liquid explosives,\" Christopher White, a spokesman for the Transportation Security Administration said.",
"The TSA is planning to have 600 of the machines installed at airports across the government by the end of this year and may look at changes to the 3-1-1 rule in fall 2009, Christopher White, a spokesman for the Transportation Security Administration added.",
"Coming much sooner: the expansion of the family lane program to every airport in the government starting Thursday.",
"See where the nation's busiest airports are » .",
"The special lanes are designed to make security screening as smooth as possible for people traveling with children, passengers with special needs or anyone unfamiliar with security procedures, while improving wait times for other travelers.",
"What's not changing for the foreseeable future: taking your shoes off at security.",
"Running your shoes through the X-ray machine is simply the fastest way of ensuring there's nothing hidden inside, Christopher White, a spokesman for the Transportation Security Administration said.",
"Preparation and planning .",
"If you are flying this Thanksgiving, expect lots of company but fewer people than last year.",
"The Air Transport Association of America predicts a 10 percent drop in the number of people traveling on U.S. airlines during the holiday, compared with the same time period in 2007.",
"\"Some of the capacity cuts that carriers put into place have finally taken effect, but also we do think that the economic downturn is finally taking a toll on consumer spending when it comes to travel,\" ATA spokeswoman Elizabeth Merida said.",
"The Air Transport Association of America predicts that the busiest travel days of this Thanksgiving holiday will be Wednesday, November 26; Sunday, November 30; and Monday, December 1, with planes 90 percent full on average on those dates.",
"Airports across the country are gearing up for the travel rush.",
"\"Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport in Georgia are making a commitment that even during peak periods, the [security] line will not exceed 20 minutes,\" said Ben DeCosta, aviation general manager at Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport in Georgia.",
"Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport in Georgia has spent more than $25 million on improvements, including 10 additional \"high-productivity, speedy\" security lanes for a total of 32, Ben DeCosta, aviation general manager at Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport in Georgia added.",
"Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport in Georgia also offers a number of queuing options for the more than 40,000 people who line up at Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport in Georgia's security checkpoints every day.",
"\"Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport in Georgia's line management segregates people by expertise and by preference, and it helps to speed everything up and to make people less anxious about the beginning of people's trip,\" Ben DeCosta, aviation general manager at Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport in Georgia said.",
"Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport in Georgia is also joining the growing number of U.S. airports with whole-body imagers at security checkpoints.",
"The machines offer an alternative to pat-downs by officers.",
"No matter what airport you're passing through",
", be prepared, White said.",
"\"If you're ready for security with your boarding pass and your ID out, with your shoes and your coat off, and with your liquids out of the carry-on bag, your experience is going to be very good and very pleasant,\" he said.",
"\"For passengers who are not ready, passengers who are not ready not only slow down passengers who are not ready, passengers who are not ready slow down the entire checkpoint line.\""

"(CNN) --",
"A diabetes test that measures a person's average blood glucose control over the preceding two to three months is being recommended as the new diagnostic tool for the condition.",
"Diabetics have too much glucose in Diabetics's blood when the condition is uncontrolled, and must monitor it.",
"A committee of international experts recommended A diabetes test that measures a person's average blood glucose control over the preceding two to three months, called the the A1C assay, at the American Diabetes Association's 69th Scientific Sessions over the weekend.",
"Report could instigate a change in the way diabetes is diagnosed, the American Diabetes Association said.",
"The A1C assay, which has been used for nearly 30 years to determine how well a patient controls diabetes, is a more stable, reliable diagnostic tool than the techniques currently in use, the authors of Report said.",
"\"A committee of international experts is recommending that this be used as widely as possible to diagnose diabetes instead of the blood sugar test,\" said Dr. David Nathan, director of the Diabetes Center at Massachusetts General Hospital and chairman of A committee of international experts.",
"The A1C test, which consists of a simple blood test, is also more convenient than the two tests commonly used for diabetes -- the fasting plasma glucose and the oral glucose tolerance test -- the authors of the report said.",
"In the fasting test, the patient does not eat for about 12 to 14 hours before a blood test.",
"In the tolerance test, the patient drinks a sweet solution and has blood drawn two hours later.",
"In addition, Nathan said, \"It probably is better related to the development of eye disease with diabetes, and therefore probably serves as a better diagnostic tool.\"",
"A committee of international experts was assembled by the American Diabetes Association, International Diabetes Federation and European Association for the Study of Diabetes, but the American Diabetes Association, International Diabetes Federation and European Association for the Study of Diabetes have not officially endorsed the report.",
"\"Basically, the American Diabetes Association supports the concept, supports the use of A diabetes test that measures a person's average blood glucose control over the preceding two to three months to diagnose diabetes, and just has to look at the implications of it, and the implementation of it",
",\" said Richard Kahn, Chief Scientific and Medical Officer for the American Diabetes Association, who was part of A committee of international experts.",
"Using A1C in diagnosis would be particularly useful for determining whether patients have type 2 diabetes, which is more difficult to diagnose than type 1, said Dr. William Bornstein, assistant professor of endocrinology at Emory University, who was not part of A committee of international experts.",
"\"This will be beneficial to the population in terms of helping us more clearly diagnose folks who are at risks for complications and help them manage that earlier,\" Dr. William Bornstein, assistant professor of endocrinology at Emory University, who was not part of the committee said.",
"Still, controversy likely will arise over the use of A diabetes test that measures a person's average blood glucose control over the preceding two to three months in diagnostics because of the long, established track record of using the other two methods, Dr. William Bornstein, assistant professor of endocrinology at Emory University, who was not part of the committee said.",

"Boxing champ talks about diabetes struggle .",
"How it works .",
"Humans cannot live without having sugar called glucose in Humans's blood.",
"Too much glucose, however, attaches to a variety of proteins in the body and harms proteins in the body.",
"Uncontrolled diabetes is characterized by too much glucose in the bloodstream.",
"too much glucose in the bloodstream then glycates with -- or sticks to -- a protein called hemoglobin, which carries oxygen from the lungs to the body's cells.",
"The A1C test measures the percentage of glycated hemoglobin in the blood, which is a reflection of average blood glucose control, according to the American Diabetes Association.",
"A diabetes test that measures a person's average blood glucose control over the preceding two to three months is a better measure of the problem that diabetes causes than glucose-based tests, at least for monitoring, said David Schoenfeld, professor of biostatistics at Harvard University.",
"David Schoenfeld, professor of biostatistics at Harvard University and colleagues, including Nathan and a large group of international researchers, studied the relationship between A diabetes test that measures a person's average blood glucose control over the preceding two to three months and average blood glucose.",
"While many diabetics monitor many diabetics's average blood glucose levels daily, at the doctor's office the patient receives a measurement in terms of hemoglobin A1C, David Schoenfeld, professor of biostatistics at Harvard University said.",
"David Schoenfeld, professor of biostatistics at Harvard University and researchers created a chart to convert these two measurements, so that patients would not have to interpret two different numbers and feel confused.",
"He and researchers concluded in a 2008 paper that, for most patients with type 1 and type 2 diabetes, A1C levels can be expressed as average glucose.",
"The international committee concluded that an A1C level of 6.5 percent indicates that a person has diabetes, while values between 6 percent and 6.5 percent are likely to be at highest risk for developing diabetes.",
"Experts note, however, that there is a continuum of risk for complications, and the \"cut-point\" of 6.5 percent should not be considered an absolute dividing line.",
"All adults who are overweight and have additional risk factors, such as family history of diabetes, high blood pressure or abnormal lipid levels, should be screened for diabetes, according to the American Diabetes Association.",
"Adults aged 45 or older should be tested even if they do not have these risk factors, the American Diabetes Association said."

"Bernstein says Republicans returned to old themes, including patriotism, to attack Democrats.",
"(CNN)",
"-- Democrats take note: GOP convention was resolutely on-message Tuesday night, sounding old themes and buzzwords that have worked for the GOP in the past.",
"It's those same themes that John McCain, who once rejected the approach, has now embraced as the only way to the White House.",

"In the repetitious theme of the evening, the GOP would \"Put Country First,\" as if the Democrats wouldn't.",
"the Democrats's first response to the evening, in a statement from the Obama campaign about the GOP's failure to address economic problems in the country, said nothing -- perhaps at its peril -- about the real Republican message.",
"The theme was first sounded by actor Robert Duvall in the short film actor Robert Duvall narrated; followed by speaker after speaker and later interspersed in filmed tributes to Ronald Reagan and to a Navy Seal hero who died in Iraq.",
"That is the theme invoked as the motif of John McCain's life.",
"Perhaps the most extreme example of the implication that the GOP have a lock on patriotism and \"Putting Country First\" came in video footage of a first-responder going underwater to rescue occupants of a car that plummeted in the Minneapolis bridge collapse.",
"(No word at the convention about problems of infrastructure in the country -- just people (apparently only Republicans) who would \"Put Country First.\"",
"Meanwhile, consistent with the demonizing subtext of this theme, President Bush attacked (rather incongruously, but with plenty of antecedents in Republican history) \"The Angry Left\" -- perhaps an attempt to stigmatize those who would question Sarah Palin's credentials.",
"A quick video tribute to Ronald Reagan referred to \"the media [who] despised Ronald Reagan.\"",
"Former Sen. Fred Thompson pounded Barack Obama as \"the most liberal\" presidential candidate in history, and brought GOP convention to GOP convention's feet.",
"Former Sen. Fred Thompson also warned of losing the Supreme Court to the Democrats and \"liberalism\" (to delirious applause).",
"Former Sen. Fred Thompson said McCain's pick of Sarah Palin's had thrown the Democrats' \"friends in the media into a state of panic\" (pandemonium in the hall).",
"McCain, in a different time in McCain's life (i.e. running against President Bush for the Republican nomination in 2000), specifically rejected this approach.",
"McCain courted and charmed the dreaded \"media\" monolith and enunciated a post-partisan vision (yet definitely consistent with conservative orthodoxy on many big questions).",
"McCain also railed against the culture wars that McCain's party and campaign are now intent on stoking as the way to victory.",
"(Remember, only months ago, when the promise of this election was that there were two nominees who understood the enduring damage of the culture wars to the country and its political system?)",
"Will the Republican message on display last night work?",
"the Republican message on display last night was essential to President Bush's defeat of John Kerry and pulled President Bush to parity with Al Gore in 2000.",

"Bill Clinton recognized this approach, addressed this approach substantively and forthrightly and buried this approach.",

"Everything about Jupiter is super-sized, including Jupiter's colorful, turbulent atmosphere.",
"But there's fresh evidence that one of the planet's most recognizable features, Great Red Spot, is shrinking.",
"NASA's Cassini spacecraft photographed Jupiter and its Great Red Spot, seen center near the equator, in 2000.",
"The spot, which is actually an ancient monster storm that measures Great Red Spot across, lost 15 percent of Great Red Spot's diameter between 1996 and 2006, scientists at the University of California, Berkeley, have found.",
"It shrank by about 1 kilometer (about 0.6 miles) a day during that time period, said Xylar Asay-Davis, a postdoctoral researcher who was part of the study.",
"Astronomers have observed for years that the clouds of Great Red Spot have been waning, but this newest research focused on the motion of the storm -- a much more reliable way to measure its size, Xylar Asay-Davis, a postdoctoral researcher who was part of the study said.",
"Xylar Asay-Davis, a postdoctoral researcher who was part of the study and fellow Berkeley researchers Philip Marcus, Imke de Pater, Michael Wong and Sushil Shetty developed software that tracked the movement of the spot's cloud patterns over long periods of time.",
"\"It's not just the motion of the spot as a whole object.",
"Within Great Red Spot, Great Red Spot has a very complicated swirl to Great Red Spot -- sort of a thin ring on the outside and then a sort of quiet area in the center -- and that shape of Great Red Spot has been changing over time,\" Xylar Asay-Davis, a postdoctoral researcher who was part of the study said.",
"\"What we actually look at is where the winds are the strongest in the vortex.",
"It's the ring where they're the strongest, and that ring has been shrinking over time.\"",
"The findings have been submitted for publication in Icarus, the International Journal of Solar System Studies.",
"See photos of the other planets and find out what makes the other planets stand out » .",
"What makes it red?",
"The researchers do not know why Great Red Spot is shrinking.",
"In fact, little is known about Great Red Spot at all.",
"Even the exact cause of its distinctive color is a mystery.",
"\"We don't actually know what causes any of the colors on Jupiter,\" said Amy Simon-Miller, chief of the Planetary Systems Lab at NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center.",
"\"One of the leading theories is that [Great Red Spot] is dredging up stuff from much deeper below in the atmosphere that turns red when it's exposed to sunlight.\"",
"Great Red Spot isn't always bright red; sometimes Great Red Spot's actually quite pale, Amy Simon-Miller, chief of the Planetary Systems Lab at NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center noted.",
"Astronomers have been tracking Great Red Spot since the 1870s, said Glenn Orton, a senior research scientist at NASA'S Jet Propulsion Laboratory who investigates planetary atmospheres.",
"It is possible that Great Red Spot may one day disappear, he added.",
"\"It's just a storm that, like many things, has a natural growth and disintegration rate,\" Glenn Orton, a senior research scientist at NASA'S Jet Propulsion Laboratory who investigates planetary atmospheres said.",
"Astronomers see a dramatic difference in Great Red Spot's shape when comparing photos of Jupiter taken more than a century ago to recent images of the planet.",
"Glenn Orton, a senior research scientist at NASA'S Jet Propulsion Laboratory who investigates planetary atmospheres joked that Great Red Spot used to be so long that Great Red Spot's acronym should have stood for the \"Great Red Sausage.\"",
"\"I just happened to look at an old picture and said to Glenn Orton, a senior research scientist at NASA'S Jet Propulsion Laboratory who investigates planetary atmospheres, 'That looks like a breakfast sausage.'",
"It's very long.",
"I mean, if you look at one of those pictures back from then and a picture now, you think, 'My God, this thing is going on a diet,\" Glenn Orton, a senior research scientist at NASA'S Jet Propulsion Laboratory who investigates planetary atmospheres said.",
"Now eye-shaped, Great Red Spot is expected to become circular by about 2040, Glenn Orton, a senior research scientist at NASA'S Jet Propulsion Laboratory who investigates planetary atmospheres added.",
"Chemical stew .",
"Great Red Spot is a fascinating feature on a fascinating planet.",
"Great Red Spot has some of the characteristics of a hurricane on Earth, including a circular motion and strong winds.",
"strong winds're Jupiter-strength inside Great Red Spot, with some gusting up to 400 miles per hour, Amy Simon-Miller, chief of the Planetary Systems Lab at NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center said.",
"Unlike hurricanes on Earth, which are low-pressure systems, Great Red Spot is a high-pressure system, so Great Red Spot's more stable -- one of the reasons Great Red Spot has lasted so long, Amy Simon-Miller, chief of the Planetary Systems Lab at NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center added.",
"Another factor in Great Red Spot's longevity is that there is no land on Jupiter to slow a storm in the way landfalls cause hurricanes to lose steam on Earth.",
"Jupiter's atmosphere of colorful dots, swirls and bands may look like an impressionist painting from above, but it would quickly lose its beauty on closer approach.",
"The clouds visible from space consist of ammonia ice and ammonium hydrosulfide -- a sort of smoggy chemical stew -- and the conditions below are brutal, especially inside Great Red Spot.",
"\"The winds are so strong, everything would get pulled apart pretty quickly.",
"There's no surface to stand on and look up at it,\" Amy Simon-Miller, chief of the Planetary Systems Lab at NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center said.",
"Probes sent by NASA towards the interior of the planet have been crushed by the gas giant's enormous atmospheric pressure.",
"Still, the images of Jupiter and Jupiter's Great Red Spot mesmerize astronomers.",
"\"The pictures are just so beautiful, and The pictures're different every single time we look,\" Amy Simon-Miller, chief of the Planetary Systems Lab at NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center said."

"LONDON, England (CNN) --",
"The debate about using technology to help referees has been re-",
"ignited following a number of controversial decisions in the Champions League semi-final between Chelsea and Barcelona.",
"The Hawk-Eye system is already widely used in tennis and has transformed the game.",
"Sepp Blatter, president of FIFA, the game's governing body, has consistently opposed the use of in-game video replays, but goal-line technology, to determine if the ball has crossed the goal line, has received more support.",
"The Hawk-Eye system is extensively used in tennis, using cameras to calculate the trajectory of the ball.",
"The Hawk-Eye system then uses the trajectory data to determine exactly where the ball has hit the ground, making The Hawk-Eye system invaluable for marginal line calls.",
"Using similar technology, Hawk-Eye Innovations, based in England, has developed a football system to determine if a goal has been scored.",
"the system again uses cameras to track the ball and computers to calculate its position.",
"If the system detects that the ball has crossed the goal line a central computer transmits a signal to the referee via either a watch or earpiece.",
"the system was tested at Premier League football club Fulham in 2006 and then at Reading's training ground in 2007.",
"the system was backed by the British Football Association and funded by the Premier League.",
"Another goal-line technology, a microchipped football, was developed by Adidas and German firm Cairos Technologies.",
"A microchip built into the football detects a magnetic field generated by underground cables in the penalty area.",
"Like the system The system uses a computer to send a signal to the referee's watch when a goal is scored.",
"The system was tested at the World Under-17 Championships in 2005 and the 2007 World Club Championship in Tokyo.",
"The International Football Association Board (IFAB), which decides the laws of the game, discusses new rules at an annual general meeting consisting of four representatives from FIFA and one each from England, Northern Ireland, Scotland and Wales.",
"Explaining the IFAB's decision, Blatter said the microchipped ball had failed in one of the seven World Club Championship matches because of interference to the signal sent to the referee and that it would be difficult to implement the chip technology in the many types of football used around the world.",
"Blatter added that it was not possible to ensure that The system worked in a crowded goalmouth, where players might block the cameras' view of the ball.",
"\"FIFA are of the opinion that the systems are very costly, would not add anything to the game and would harm the position of the referee,\" the UK's Press Association reported at the time.",
"Do you think goal-line technology should be used?",
"Share your thoughts in the Sound Off box below.",
"But Hawk-Eye managing director Paul Hawkins told CNN that Hawk-Eye managing director Paul Hawkins believes FIFA has decided that FIFA doesn't want technology in football.",
"\"I saw FIFA last week and told FIFA that we can provide a system if FIFA want a system, but it's very clear FIFA don't want a system,\" Hawk-Eye managing director Paul Hawkins said.",
"Hawk-Eye managing director Paul Hawkins said Hawk-Eye managing director Paul Hawkins's company cannot develop the technology any further without more testing in real stadiums, but that kind of testing requires FIFA's consent.",
"The idea that football's governing bodies are opposed to more technology in football has been supported by statements from the sport's governing bodies.",
"In March 2009, Blatter said in a statement: \"The IFAB believes that football is a game for human beings and, as such, we should improve the standard of refereeing - and not turn to technology.\"",
"Michel Platini, President of UEFA, European Football's governing body, has expressed similar views.",
"Instead of pursuing goal-line technology, The IFAB chose to trial the idea of having two extra match officials, one behind each goal.",
"A FIFA spokesman told CNN that while the use of goal-line technology hasn't been ruled out forever, even after recent refereeing controversies, The IFAB's current position is to continue to experiment with extra officials.",
"The IFAB's decision means there will be no goal-line technology used in the Champions League final on 27 May, which means there is the potential for more refereeing disputes.",
"\"Maybe there will be a controversial goal in the Champions League final and maybe the discussion over the technology will begin again,\" Oliver Braun, marketing and communications director at Cairos Technologies told CNN.",
"Hawkins agrees that it will take a controversial goal-line incident in a big FIFA match to get The IFAB to change their position, saying it took a series of contentious calls at the 2004 US Open for tennis authorities to seriously consider using the Hawk-Eye system.",
"If that is the case, there will be some football fans hoping for plenty of goal-line drama come May 27."

"Watch CNN's exclusive interview with Hiddink » .",
"Little, then, to suggest that here was a man who would achieve so much in Hiddink's later career.",
