Viewer's guide to the South Carolina Democratic primary

One week after South Carolina voters handed Donald Trump a big win in the Republican primary, it's the Democrats' turn. Here's everything you need to know about today's contest in the Palmetto State.
Could South Carolina still feel the Bern?
Though the margin between the candidates has grown a bit closer in South Carolina polling over the past couple of months, Hillary Clinton is still averaging about a 25-point lead over Bernie Sanders in South Carolina, per RealClearPolitics.
The major force behind Clinton's advantage? Minority voters. The Greenville News' Amanda Coyne earlier this week outlined what each candidate faces in appealing to black voters.
"Therein lies Sanders’ biggest problem ─ and opponent Hillary Clinton’s biggest advantage ─ in South Carolina’s Democratic presidential primary. Sanders has the support of 28% of black voters in South Carolina, according to a CNN/ORC International poll. Clinton has 65%. In 2008, 55% of Democratic primary voters were black."
Clinton also picked up a key endorsement last week from the most influential Democrat in the state: Rep. James Clyburn.
When will we know who wins?
Polls are open from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. ET. If the margin between the candidates is as wide as polling indicates, we could have a winner shortly after polls close.
How did Clinton fare in South Carolina eight years ago?
The short answer: It didn't go well. Not only did Clinton lose to then-Illinois senator Barack Obama by a more than 2-to-1 margin, her husband, former president Bill Clinton, stirred controversy following the loss with remarks that seemed to diminish Obama's victory there that some believed were racially tinged.
So what exactly is at stake?
South Carolina was allotted 59 delegates to the Democratic National Convention, though six of these are superdelegates, who are elected officials and select party leaders and DNC national committee members free to support any candidate they choose.
The remainder are allocated based on the results of the primary. Since you've made it this far, we'll dig a little deeper into how exactly that happens. Thirty-five delegates are awarded based on finishes in each of the Palmetto State's seven congressional districts, another 11 are considered at-large delegates won based on statewide finish, while the final seven are other party leaders and officials (to be named later) who are still bound by the results of the primary. All of these so-called pledged delegates are awarded on a proportional basis, with a 15% threshold.
Still with us?
To put it in perspective, the 53 delegates at stake will be more than any of the previous three contests, but still just a small fraction of the 2,383 needed to win the 2016 Democratic presidential nomination.
What happens after Saturday?
Next up is Super Tuesday on March 1, in which 11 states will hold Democratic contests: there are primaries in Alabama, Arkansas, Georgia, Massachusetts, Oklahoma, Tennessee, Texas, Vermont and Virginia, and caucuses in Colorado and Minnesota. Clinton is expected to prevail in the Southern states, while Sanders is looking for wins in New England and strong finishes in Minnesota, Colorado and Oklahoma.

Not much is happening in the Democratic race in South Carolina. Bernie Sanders seems to have given up, and there’s been only one new poll in the last week. Still, just for the record, here are the final Pollster aggregates one day before the primary. Hillary Clinton continues to lead by more than 20 points. ||||| (CNN) Hillary Clinton isn't just looking for a win -- she's seeking her first breakout victory over Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders in Saturday's South Carolina Democratic primary.
In the last contest before Super Tuesday, the former secretary of state will rely on her advantage with African-American voters. Sanders, meanwhile, will look to prove he's closed the gap among minority voters, setting himself on course to stay close in the last of the early-state contests.
Here are five things to watch Saturday:
1. Clinton's margin
Clinton is widely expected to win -- and potentially win big -- in the Palmetto State.
Her margin of victory, though, is the crucial number to watch in order to forecast what lies ahead on Super Tuesday, when 11 states vote -- turning what had been a state-by-state slog into a truly national contest.
Alabama, Arkansas, Georgia, Tennessee, Texas and Virginia are all Southern states with large portions of African-American voters, just like South Carolina. That makes South Carolina a critical test of Clinton's strength in those places.
Sanders is focusing his efforts on five Super Tuesday states where he stands a better chance of winning: Colorado, Massachusetts, Minnesota, Oklahoma and Vermont.
If she wins in a blowout, Clinton can expect a big Super Tuesday. If she just ekes out a win, that would be more troubling for her campaign.
2. African-American turnout
In 2008, about double the number of black voters participated in South Carolina's Democratic primary compared to 2004.
It was a huge component of then-Sen. Barack Obama's runaway victory.
And if Clinton is to blow out Sanders on Saturday, she'll need a large turnout among African-Americans as well.
At the heart of Clinton's strategy to sew up the Democratic nomination is the notion that minority voters are a firewall of sorts that will prevent Sanders from accumulating the delegates he'd need to stop her.
Not every Democratic electorate, though, is as white as New Hampshire or as black as South Carolina.
Clinton doesn't just need clear wins among minority voters; she needs them to turn out in force. And South Carolina will be the first test of whether her campaign has energized black voters enough that they will do just that.
3. Bill Clinton's redemption
In 2008, it was ugly: The man once called the "first black president" alienated African-American voters in South Carolina after a series of outbursts against the Illinois senator who was set to become the actual first black president.
Particularly damaging was Clinton's comparison of Obama to Jesse Jackson, who'd won South Carolina's Democratic primary in 1984 and 1988. African-American leaders interpreted that as dismissive of the importance of the black vote.
Obama defeated Clinton by 29 points, a blowout that helped put him on the path to the Democratic nomination. Since then, the Clinton have repaired their relationships with the African-American community.
The best evidence that Bill Clinton's damaging 2008 outbursts are healed comes from Rep. Jim Clyburn of South Carolina, the top-ranking African-American in Congress.
Clyburn wrote in his memoir that in 2008, Bill Clinton had phoned him at 2:15 a.m., calling him a "bastard" and blaming Clyburn for his wife's defeat there.
This year, Clyburn has endorsed Hillary Clinton.
A strong Clinton win would signal that Bill Clinton -- who has campaigned in South Carolina for his wife this year -- has recovered from his past political wounds.
4. Sanders' message
Sanders' effort to reach out to African-American voters has been, at times, discordant.
Recently, he lashed out at Clinton in a BET interview, accusing her of cozying up to Obama in an attempt to pander to black voters.
Then, in a CNN town hall, he portrayed himself as a major Obama ally, hitting Donald Trump's four-year-old quest for Obama's birth certificate as racially motivated.
Sanders is particularly strong among young voters, white voters and men. But to secure the Democratic nomination, he'll need to win over minority voters, too.
The South Carolina results will provide evidence of whether he is succeeding. His election-night speech -- and then his appearances on Sunday morning news shows the next day -- will reveal whether he has settled on the best strategy to achieve that goal.
5. The momentum primary
Clinton's win in Nevada gave her just a few more delegates than Sanders -- but that pales in comparison to the importance of the symbolic momentum it gave her campaign.
Going into the state, Sanders was riding a near-tie in Iowa and a blowout win in New Hampshire.
Leaving it, he faced with many of the same obstacles that have confronted him for months, just as the campaign calendar turned to terrain more friendly to Clinton.
South Carolina will settle a few more delegates, but it will also be an important moment for supporters of both candidates.
Just by keeping the state close, Sanders could reverse the damage of Nevada.
And keeping it close is exactly what he'll try to do throughout the first 15 days of March. After Super Tuesday, he could pick up a few small states, but it's six big ones -- Michigan on March 8 and then Florida, Ohio, Illinois, North Carolina and Missouri on March 15 -- that Clinton will be eyeing.
If Sanders can set himself on a path to wake up the morning of March 16 still within striking distance, it'll be a major success, just as the campaign heads west to states he's more likely to win. ||||| CHARLESTON, South Carolina — In South Carolina, Hillary Clinton is finally the candidate she always wanted to be.
Gone are questions about her authenticity. Here, black voters say Clinton’s history as a civil rights stalwart -- she first visited the state as a college grad investigating the problem of youths incarcerated in adult jails for the Children’s Defense Fund -- trumps any trust issues that dog her elsewhere.
Story Continued Below
The script has been flipped, for the first time, in her favor.
Her stories about her own mother’s abused and abandoned childhood resonate deeply with African-American women -- and there are about 100,000 more black women than men of voting age in the state. And to them, it is Bernie Sanders who is viewed as an unknown quantity, whose big ideas of free college and healthcare are greeted with skepticism.
“She’s dealt with African-Americans,” said Gloria Major, a retiree who has been working as a campaign volunteer. “She knows the struggle. She knows what poverty is. It’s not like someone who just come in our lives who tells us these big ideals. Her mother’s story resonates. I’m raising a granddaughter right now, my daughter is in her life now but she’s not wanted. I know the hurt and the pain they go through.”
Murray Beaufort, a former mayor of a small town in Williamsburg County, attended Clinton’s town hall in Kingstree and was incredulous about what he has heard of Sanders. “I can’t figure out how he’s going to pay for some of the stuff he’s talking about, because in reality it’s not there,” he said. “We know what she stands for and we are obligated to support her.”
Former South Carolina Gov. Jim Hodges, who is supporting Clinton, added that “when you watch Bernie, it’s like he’s taking a cram course in how to communicate in churches, it doesn’t feel natural. Nobody disputes he’s being earnest, but there’s a feeling he doesn’t quite get it. She’s very natural in settings talking about issues of race, with African-American women in particular.” Clinton likes to remind voters that her first major policy speech back in the spring was about criminal justice reform.
Here, older African-American voters who have struggled with racism and poverty are pragmatic, and believe in the incremental change Clinton espouses. “They don’t have the luxury of an Iowa college student” to vote for ideals, Hodges added.
Many voters say they would have been happy to support her eight years ago if it wasn’t for the historic nature of Barack Obama’s candidacy. Clinton’s support for Obama since then has only increased their desire to help her this time.
“The feeling among voters here is they have a job to do and that’s to nominate Hillary,” said Boyd Brown, a DNC executive committee member and super-delegate who is supporting Clinton after originally backing Martin O’Malley. “They see it as a duty. They’ve got a proven candidate and she might not be the greatest candidate in the world, or the most enthusiastic candidate, but you know what? She’d be a good president and they realize that.”
Even Sanders' best demographic -- the young, white voters who propelled him to victory in New Hampshire -- aren’t available to help him close the margin in Saturday’s Democratic primary.
“White millennials, we call them Republicans in South Carolina,” said Hodges. “They vote no different than their parents. They supported John McCain over Obama.”
Clinton operatives are feeling optimistic for the first time in months, and many of her allies on the ground are predicting a comfortable double-digit win.
For Sanders, that means his path to the nomination is narrowing.
After losing Nevada last week -- a brutal blow for Sanders’ campaign in a state where the caucus system was supposed to give him a built-in advantage -- the pressure is mounting on the liberal Vermonter to show he can recover ground by outperforming expectations with black voters on Clinton turf. But Sanders has spent less time than Clinton campaigning here in the days leading up to Saturday’s primary.
Sanders chief strategist Tad Devine admitted that it’s the campaign’s unique small donor fundraising juggernaut that is allowing them to continue to soldier on at all.
“In the old narrative, you didn’t win Nevada and the campaign had to come to an end,” Devine admitted. “The bundlers didn’t give you money anymore. The television ads would come down, staffers would be fired and the campaign would come to an end.”
“We don’t have bundlers,” he added. “The people who are supporting us are still supporting us. That’s what’s different here. We designed a fundraising mechanism that would not compete with our message.”
But the calendar doesn’t get easier for Sanders on Super Tuesday, which is March 1. A recent Monmouth University poll has Clinton up by 34 points in Texas; in Georgia, polls have her leading between 28 and 52 points; Clinton is up by double digits in Virginia and leading in Florida by 26 points. Devine said they have opportunities to post big wins in Kansas, Nebraska and Maine, caucus states which vote in mid-March.
By the time the race gets to the Michigan primary on March 8, Democratic operatives expect it to act as Clinton’s final firewall -- or Sanders’ last stand -- depending on the results of Super Tuesday.
The Nevada victory that made Sanders lose altitude at exactly the wrong time came as a relief to Clinton campaign staffers -- they were so concerned with the prospect of a loss that many didn’t know what to do with themselves in hours after the victory. Operatives from the Brooklyn headquarters joined a press plane flying to Houston the night after the caucus, expecting to have to spin a loss to the reporters covering the campaign. Back then, South Carolina was going to be the next firewall -- now it’s viewed more as a glide state into March. And Clinton allies are speaking optimistically about the trajectory of the race.
“I think it will be big,” Ohio Rep. Marcia Fudge said of Clinton’s expected victory in South Carolina.
Fudge, a past chair of the Congressional Black Caucus, has made four trips to South Carolina to campaign for Clinton, targeting the 46 chapters of Delta Sigma Theta Sorority in the state, a powerful network of African-American women.
“If we win South Carolina, I think it does start to make people look at the race a little differently,” Fudge said in an interview. “I think Sanders will stay in the race for a while, but I think as we start to go into more states where the population is more diverse, it’s indicative of where the campaign is going.”
So, too, were the smaller crowds that came out to see Sanders at a rally in a large gymnasium at Claflin University in Orangeburg Friday night. There, bleachers sat mostly empty while surrogates like Killer Mike and former Ohio state Sen. Nina Turner tried to fire up the crowd.
“Fired up! Ready to Bern!” Turner chanted, a somewhat unhelpful reminder of the once-in-a-generation excitement that fueled the Obama campaign here eight years ago. Sanders then delivered his shortest stump speech to date, clocking in at just under 30 minutes.
The tepid rally showed Sanders’ challenge moving forward -- not only has he been unable to win the states where he enjoys a built-in advantage, but he has not yet shown he can make inroads in states that are not tailor-made for his campaign.
For her part, Clinton was in good spirits in the final days of her campaign here. On Friday morning, she popped into the Saffron Cafe and Bakery in Charleston. “I love having men at my feet!” she joked when a groom and his groomsmen got down on their knees to pose for a picture with her. She left with two slices of Greek tort and a cappuccino to go.
On Thursday night, she took the stage at the Music Farm in Charleston with R&B star Charlie Wilson, waving her arm in the air, smiling and swaying to the music.
“Go, Hillary! Go, Hillary!” Wilson chanted. “Go, Hillary!” |||||Summary:
|
– Voting in South Carolina's Democratic primary Saturday wraps up at 7pm, and if the polls are correct, you can expect the race to be called soon after: Hillary Clinton is expected to be the easy winner, reports USA Today. What really matters is the margin of victory given the demographics involved, reports CNN. "If she wins in a blowout, Clinton can expect a big Super Tuesday," writes Eric Bradner. "If she just ekes out a win, that would be more troubling for her campaign." The reason? Clinton dominates Sanders among African-American voters, and they make up a large portion of the electorate not only in South Carolina but in several states voting on Tuesday, including Alabama, Arkansas, Georgia, Tennessee, Texas, and Virginia. The New York Times notes that these same voters opted for Barack Obama in 2008, making Saturday's vote a key test in whether Clinton has won them back. Polling suggests she has, and Politico observes that in South Carolina, "Clinton is finally the candidate she always wanted to be." It collects this quote to illustrate why her candidacy is resonating among black women in particular: “She’s dealt with African-Americans,” says one retiree working as a campaign volunteer. “She knows the struggle. She knows what poverty is. It’s not like someone who just come in our lives who tells us these big ideals. Her mother’s story resonates. I’m raising a granddaughter right now, my daughter is in her life now but she’s not wanted. I know the hurt and the pain they go through.”

This is not surprising, though: While the greatest number of slaves imported from Africa were sent to Brazil, totalizing roughly 3.5 million people, they lived in such miserable conditions that male African Y-DNA there is significantly rare due to the lack of resources and time involved with raising of children, so that most African descent originarily came from relations between white masters and female slaves. From the last decades of the Empire until the 1950s, the proportion of the white population increased significantly while Brazil welcomed 5.5 million immigrants between 1821 and 1932, not much behind its neighbor Argentina with 6.4 million, and it received more European immigrants in its colonial history than the United States. Between 1500 and 1760, 700.000 Europeans settled in Brazil, while 530.000 Europeans settled in the United States for the same given time. Thus, the historical construction of race in Brazilian society dealt primarily with gradations between persons of majoritarily European ancestry and little minority groups with otherwise lower quantity therefrom in recent times.

Here is an email: Greg, I received request for our goals on a voicemail while coming back from Venezuela. I didn't know exactly what you were looking for or the audience but i have listed a few initial goals and thoughts for each business unit. We are in the process of creating more specific goals for each group for 2001. Each already has their own but they are not in a final and consistent format. We have an off-site meeting later this month in which we will address this as a group. In addition, George and the coal group completed theirs late last week and Mark Tawney is returning tomorrow with re-defined goals as part of the process. Also, I have attached some new global formats that I received as I was leaving the country on some specific items that we need to insure a successful year. Most of this information has never been put together before. I have projected out a 50% growth factor as a starting point and will break this down to specific groups and goals to insure that we will meet these goals. As you know a lot of this was started when I put together the EGM presentation and gathered information for the analyst meeting. Let me know if you need something else or if this is not what you are looking for. Mike

A: In the case of indigenous Australians, unlike with the Māori of New Zealand, no treaty was ever entered into with the indigenous peoples entitling the Europeans to land ownership, under the doctrine of terra nullius (later overturned by Mabo v Queensland, establishing the concept of native title well after colonization was already a fait accompli).

Write an ordered list of reviews about "hostel 2".
|
1. Ends up there is a moral to the story, one sure to delight the bamboozled pseudo-intellectuals who laughably defended Hostel as a geo-political critique of American arrogance and the culture of torture.
2. No doubt about it: Roth is a talented guy. But it would be nice to see him use his skills in the service of something other than more sadistic, pandering, pornographic violence.
3. If this sounds like your cup of crud - and you know who you are - you probably won't be disappointed.
4. Similarly gory and exploitative as its torture-porn predecessor, writer/director Eli Roth's horror sequel is nothing more than a makeover of "Hostel" substituted with female characters.
5. Hostel: Part II has something that most bigger-budgeted and more heavily promoted sequels don't: the ambition to not only repeat the experience of its predecessor, but to expand and improve upon it.
6. Some might call it a mess, but, unlike the average horror sequel that's completely devoid of new ideas, this is a mess that you just can't stop watching.
7. Any semblance of suspense quickly gives way to buzz saws, drill bits and sickles. And the movie ends so abruptly, one has to think the filmmakers ran out of either money or prosthetic body parts.
8. It's beautifully put-together and it builds to a satisfying climax in which Roth implies that if men are capable of great violence and women are capable of great violence, then that would include just about all of us sitting in the audience, too.
9. Fans of horror, and more importantly those who believe in the inherent evil of humans, will feel right at home watching this one.
10. It's something of an accomplishment to stage deaths so disgusting, the main reaction is nervous laughter.

Here are some reviews for a movie: 1. The already towering reputation of this film and its director continues only to grow.
2. Anyone can relate to those moments when the calm is broken by the undercurrents of anguish, disappointment and resentment that run through every family.
3. One of the most quietly powerful studies of the gradual and inevitable erosion of the family in a rapidly changing world.
4. Ozu's style is one based on restriction, rigor, and repetition, which paradoxically expands his emotional meanings.
5. constantly bursts with life and meaning, despite the fact that very little happens in the conventional narrative sense
6. One of the great classics of world cinema.
7. It ennobles the cinema. It says, yes, a movie can help us make small steps against our imperfections.
8. Rife with a pervasive sense of loss, Tokyo story offers little comfort and promises great sorrow. This is a profoundly moving film.
9. This very well might be the best film ever made.
10. Examines the same themes as films like Ordinary People and American Beauty, for example. And both of those look clumsy and derivative in comparison!
What was the overall consensus about the movie?

Tokyo Story is a Yasujiro Ozu masterpiece whose rewarding complexity has lost none of its power more than half a century on.

It's so rare to find a film that provides a plot that can't be figured out at every turn. Surprises throughout delighting throughout.
A couple of things I could not quite understand though is that here you have the lead female character who plays "the good girl, hard worker" and yet in the end she ends up being an anti-social risk taker. That was not enough to make me not like it though but it did give me pause.
The other thing I could not get was the old man who was being hauled away by the police at the very end of the film. I never did get who he was or what his issues were. If anyone has any ideas, I'd like to hear what they might be.
The film was exciting and fun throughout and always left me guessing. Very much worth seeing.

New York man accused of trying to recruit, aid ISIS militants
An upstate New York man has been indicted for allegedly trying to recruit fighters for the Islamic State, paying for their travel and even buying guns, according to federal prosecutors.
Mufid Elfgeeh, 30, of Rochester, was indicted by a federal grand jury on three counts of attempting to provide material support and resources to the group widely known as ISIS that has been designated by the U.S. as a foreign terrorist organization, federal prosecutors said late Tuesday. Elfgeeh, who was born in Yemen and is a naturalized U.S. citizen, is one of the first people accused by the U.S. of recruiting on behalf of ISIS.
According to court documents seen by the Rochester Democrat & Chronicle, Elfgeeh tried to raise money to enable a Yemeni man to join ISIS. At one point, Elfgeeh allegedly sent the man $600 to travel from Yemen to Syria. An FBI affidavit alleges that this past April, Elfgeeh traveled to Buffalo with an FBI informant to get a passport for the latter man. Elfgeeh suggested that ISIS would use the informant to "operate a cannon, act as a sniper and/or build bombs," the document claims.
Elfgeeh was arrested this past May in the parking lot of a local Walmart after taking delivery of two handguns equipped with silencers and ammunition. Elfgeeh, who had been under surveillance for more than a year after tweets about jihad attracted law enforcement attention, had allegedly given the informant $1,050 in cash to purchase the handguns, which had been rendered inoperable. Federal authorities said he bought the weapons as part of a plan to kill members of the U.S. armed forces returning from war, as well as Shiites in the Rochester area.
"As this case shows, our agents and prosecutors are using all the investigative tools at our disposal to break up these plots before individuals can put their plans into action," said Attorney General Eric Holder in a statement. "We are focused on breaking up these activities on the front end, before supporters of ISIL [another name for ISIS and IS] can make good on plans to travel to the region or recruit sympathizers to this cause."
Thousands of western jihadists, mostly from Europe, have flocked to Syria and Iraq to join the Islamic State, particularly since it announced it has established a caliphate of Sharia law. U.S. officials have said "dozens" of Americans are believed to have went overseas, and two men with ties to the Minneapolis area, Douglas McAuthur McCain and Abdirahmaan Muhumed, have been killed in battle in Syria.
Prosecutors said two of the three individuals Elfgeeh had contact with were cooperating with the FBI.
"Disrupting and holding accountable those who seek to provide material support to foreign terrorist organizations is and shall remain a critical national security priority," said Assistant Attorney General for National Security John Carlin.
The investigation included linking Elfgeeh's home computer to tweets from alias Twitter accounts expressing support for Al Qaeda, violent holy war and Sunni insurgent groups in Syria, according to court papers.
One message allegedly from Elfgeeh read, "al-Qaida [sic] said it loud and clear; we are fighting the American invasion and their hegemony over the earth and the people."
Elfgeeh is also charged with one count of attempting to kill "officers and employees of the United States," two counts or possession of an unregistered firearm silencer, and a count of possession of firearms and silencers in furtherance of a violent crime. He is scheduled to appear in court for arraignment Thursday.
Elfgeeh's lawyer, Assistant Federal Public Defender Mark Hosken, told the Democrat & Chronicle that he would enter a not guilty plea in response to all the charges.
The Associated Press contributed to this report.

Since that time, the British Army, Royal Air Force, and Royal Marines have allowed moustaches and connected side whiskers only. Exceptions are beards grown for medical reasons, such as temporary skin irritations, or for religious reasons (usually by Sikhs or Muslims), although in the event of conflict in which the use of chemical or biological weapons is likely, they may be required to shave a strip around the seal of a respirator. Infantry pioneer warrant officers, colour sergeants and sergeants also traditionally wear and are permitted to wear beards; although not compulsory, most do wear them. In some Scottish infantry regiments, it is either permitted or expected, by regimental tradition, for the drum major, pipe major, and/or commanding officer's piper to wear a beard. Beards are also permitted to special forces when on covert intelligence operations or behind enemy lines.

More than 100 Russian athletes have written to the International Paralympic Committee (IPC) asking to compete at the Rio Games.
Article:
|
Russia were banned by the IPC after the McLaren report identified evidence of a state-sponsored doping programme.
The decision to ban Russia from the Games was upheld last week by the Court of Arbitration for Sport (Cas).
But the Russian Paralympic Committee (RPC) says scores of athletes are challenging that decision.
"More than 100 Russian sportsmen out of 266 who were selected for the Paralympics have filed individual cases with the IPC," Russian Paralympic Committee (RPC) vice president Pavel Rozhkov said.
London 2012 swimming champion Olesya Vladykina is believed to be among those who have contacted the IPC.
"There is no reason to ban me," said Vladykina, 28, on social media.
"I have sent the IPC documents and facts to allow me to participate in the Games in Rio individually. I will continue to fight for the truth and my name."
The IPC confirmed on Monday that it had received a number of letters from Russian Para-athletes and added that "internal discussions about the letters is ongoing".
Russian long jumper Darya Klishina was the only athlete from her country to participate in the track and field events at the Rio Olympics after she was cleared to compete by Cas.
Athletics' world governing body IAAF had banned Russian athletes from competing at the Games over doping concerns but Klishina took part after she was able to prove that her clean drugs-testing record was established in the United States, where she is based, rather than in Russia.
The Rio Paralympics begin on Wednesday, 7 September.

Mr President, Commissioner, as Mr Simpson pointed out, several thousand containers are lost each year in European waters, and they pose a very significant risk on two counts: they pose a pollution risk, which has been widely discussed, but also, because a number of them do not sink but often float between two bodies of water in which they are difficult to locate, they pose a major risk to the safe passage of ships, whether they be cargo ships or, in particular, the smallest fishing or recreational vessels.

Dle președinte, dle comisar, astfel cum a subliniat dl Simpson, câteva mii de containere sunt pierdute în apele europene în fiecare an, iar acestea prezintă un risc extrem de semnificativ din două motive: acestea prezintă un risc de poluare, care a fost discutat pe larg, dar și, de asemenea, din cauza faptului că anumite containere nu se scufundă ci plutesc deseori între două cursuri de apă în care sunt dificil de localizat, acestea prezintă un risc major pentru tranzitul în siguranță al navelor, indiferent dacă sunt nave de marfă sau, în special, nave mai mici de pescuit sau de agrement.

The mighty fane, with its three massive towers, rises majestically over the red roofs of the town. Its most striking feature is the great Norman screen, running up without buttresses or projections to the parapet and hiding the bases of the square, richly decorated towers of the west front. The plain centre of the screen is the work of Remigius, the first bishop. The rest of it is relieved with rich arcading of Late Norman and Early English periods. The wooden spires which crowned the towers were removed in 1807. In 1192 Hugh of Avalon determined to rebuild the Norman building of Remigius, which an earthquake had shaken. To him we owe the choir and eastern transept. His successors completed the western transept and began the west end of the nave. So much money had to be spent in rebuilding the central tower, which fell in 1239, that the canons could not rebuild the nave entirely, but had to incorporate the Norman end by Remigius. Unfortunately the axis of the west front does not correspond to that of the nave, which is too wide for its height. The low vaulting is a serious defect in the choir built by St. Hugh, but of the superb beauty of the Angel Choir, which encloses his shrine, there can be no doubt. In its richness of sculpture it is one of the masterpieces of Gothic architecture in England. The interior of the cathedral is remarkable for the harmony of its style, which is Lancet-Gothic, and the dim lighting of the nave only adds to its impressiveness.
After reading the above, is "2" the correct answer to the question "How many times the building of Remigius was rebuilt?"?

A Polish veterinary student who stitched the words 'I Love You' onto the skin of a dog and then posted the image on Facebook to impress his girlfriend is under investigation by university staff. The fourth year student from the University of Warmia and Mazury in Olsztyn - a city in north east Poland - is believed to have been involved an operation on the dog, before using a large number of unnecessary stitches to spell out a message to his girlfriend on the animal's stomach. The university opened an investigation into the incident after the student's friends reported him for 'grotesque' and 'unethical' behaviour. 'Grotesque': The Polish veterinary student stitched the words 'I Love You' onto the skin of a dog and then posted the image on Facebook in order to impress his girlfriend. He is under investigation by university staff. The student's message was written in English and required a large number of stitches - most of them totally unnecessary as the incision from the animal's operation was elsewhere on its stomach. Having carried out the grisly task, the student took photographs of his message before posting them on Facebook and tagging his girlfriend. Within minutes the couple's friends began criticising the photograph, branding the student unethical and describing the photograph as 'grotesque'. One person quick to come to his defence, however, was the student's girlfriend, who asked: 'What's so unethical about it? He's learnt to sew in order to help and is just showing his skill.' Anger: Within minutes of the student posting the message on Facebook, his friends began criticising the photograph - branding the young man unethical and describing the photograph as 'grotesque' Location: The University of Warmia and Mazury in Olsztyn (pictured) is now investigating the incident. While the student's girlfriend may have been impressed, Andrzej Koncicki - head of veterinary studies at the University of Warmia and Mazury - is considerably less so. He has now launched a full investigation into the incident, saying: 'We need to find out more about what happened here.' 'Saying you love someone is not a bad thing, but the fact that this was stitched into the stomach of an animal does seem immoral and unethical behaviour from a student of veterinary science,' he added. 'One of the first points of the Vets' Code of Ethics is that a vet practising his profession of public trust needs professional conduct and good morals,' Mr Koncicki went on to say. The university offers a veterinary service for locals including some free treatments to allow students to test their skills under the watchful eye of a qualified professional. They are now trying to work out why the student's ill-advised joke was not stopped by his supervisor.

Select the correct sentiment of the following review: A CRY IN THE DARK
A CRY IN THE DARK was a film that I anticipated would offer a phenomenal performance from Meryl Streep and a solid, if unremarkable film. This assumption came from the fact that aside from Streep's Best Actress nomination, the movie received little attention from major awards groups.
Little did I anticipate that A CRY IN THE DARK would be such a riveting drama, well-constructed on every level. If you ask me, this is an under-appreciatted classic.
The film opens rather slowly, letting the audience settle into the Chamberlain's at a relaxed pace and really notice that, at the core, they are an incredibly loving, simple family. Fred Schepisi (the director) selects random moments to capture of a family on vacation that give a looming sense of the oncoming tragedy, while also showing the attentive bliss with which Lindy (Streep) and Michael (Sam Neill) Chamberlain care for their children.
While the famous line "A Dingo Took My Baby!" has become somewhat of a punchline these days, the movie never even comes close to laughable. The actual death of Azaria is horrifyingly captured. It is subtle and realistic, leaving the audience horrified and asking questions.
The majority of the film takes place in courtrooms and focuses on the Chamberlain's continuous fight to prove their innocence to the press and the court, which suspects Lindy of murder.
The fact that it is clear to us from the beginning that they are innocent makes the tense trials all the more gripping. As an audience member, I was fully invested in the Chamberlain's plight... and was genuinely angered and hurt and saddened when they were made to look so terrible by the media. But at the same, the media/public opinion is understandable. I loved the way the media was by no means made to be sympathetic, but they always had valid reasons to hold their views.
The final line of the film is very profound and captures perfectly the central element that makes this film so much different from other courtroom dramas.
In terms of performances, the only ones that really matter in this film are those of Streep and Neill... and they deliver in every way. For me, this ranks as one of (if not #1) Meryl Streep's best performances. For all her mastery of different accents (which of course are very impressive in their own right), Streep never loses the central heart and soul of her characters. I find this to be one of Streep's more subtle performances, and she hits it out of the park. And Neill, an actor who has never impressed me beyond being charismatic and appealing in JURASSIC PARK, is a perfect counterpoint to Streep's performance. From what I've seen, this is undoubtedly Neill's finest work to date. It's a shame he wasn't recognized by the Academy with a Leading Actor nomination to match Streep's... b/c the two of them play of each other brilliantly.
More emotionally gripping than most films, and also incredibly suspenseful... A CRY IN THE DARK far exceeded my expectations. I highly recommend that people who only know of the movie as the flick where Meryl screams "The dingo took my baby!" watch the film and see just how much more there is to A CRY IN THE DARK then that one line.

Use the following highlights to write an article:
Many parents worry about the impact of Cyrus' performance on her young fans. Cyrus' VMA show another example of the sexualization of young girls, said some parents. Others argued that kids should not have been watching the VMAs in the first place. One upside to Cyrus' VMA appearance is that it may show strength, said one mom.
Article:
|
My list of reasons why I'm glad my girls, ages 5 and 7, were too young to ever get into "Hannah Montana" grew exponentially longer after Miley Cyrus' unforgettable "twerking" in a bra and undies at MTV's Video Music Awards. "Miley, what exactly were you thinking?" pretty much sums up the sentiment I heard from outraged moms and dads around the country who believe Cyrus, whose loyal fan base includes a huge chunk not yet old enough to drive, should know better. "It's a damn shame that Miley is doing this to herself, making a vulgar joke out of her talents and her beauty, but it's a much bigger shame that she's doing it to her young fans and other young people (who) see her in the media," said Heidi Cardenas, a mom of two teenage boys, in response to a request for comment on CNN's Facebook page. "It's the same thing as going to any street corner in America and selling herself for money," said Cardenas. "I have to instantly think that Miley does not either a) care what her younger fans think of her or b) hasn't even bothered to think of what her actions (are) doing to her image," said Larene Grady, a mom of two whose tween was "absolutely infatuated" with Cyrus but isn't anymore. "She thinks Miley does not appeal to children (who) used to like her as 'Hannah Montana,' which speaks volumes coming from a 10-year-old who had two 'Hannah Montana' parties, everything from bed sheets, pajamas, bath soaps, toothbrushes and book bags," Grady added, also in response to a tout on CNN's Facebook page. Miley Cyrus twerks, stuns VMAs crowd. "Hannah Montana" seems about as relevant to the current day Cyrus as a typewriter is to millenials. The 20-year-old has every right to chart a new course beyond her Disney days, moms and dads said in comments on Facebook and exchanges via e-mail. It's just that the path she is choosing seems so wrong and dangerous, many said. Sonia Prince of Nashua, New Hampshire, said her kids -- ages 9, 12 and 13 -- will no longer be listening to Cyrus' music. "There is enough fantastic music out there with people who have respectful behavior, especially women who don't feel the need to be sexual in public in order to be successful," she added. Cyrus' choice to wear next to nothing and strut around the VMA stage is yet another example, frustrated parents say, of the sexualization of our young girls, an issue we touched on at CNN.com just a few weeks ago in our piece on how too many tween fashions are too sexy, skimpy and short. "I do think Miley wrongly represents the way girls should act today," said Steve, a CNN commenter who shared his first name and the fact that he has a 12-year-old granddaughter. "The way they dress, act, not caring about how other people may respond to your actions," Steve added. "I think it is an oversexualization of young girls/young women." Robin Belkin, a mom of three in Northern California, believes Cyrus' performance only adds to the already "damaging image of women-as-sex-objects." "I just find it extremely discouraging and difficult to hold out hope for the improved status of women in this world when even the most entitled among us so negatively reinforce the worst stereotypes and misogynistic attitudes about women," said Belkin. Opinion: Miley Cyrus is sexual, get over it. "Her behavior sets 50 to 60 years of women's forward progress back a long way when you consider that her huge fan base really only consists of young and impressionable girls and horny young boys, who, unfortunately on many levels, are our future leaders," said John Rodrigues of Boston, in response to a request for comment on CNN's Facebook page. "Growing up under the impression that this behavior is not only OK, but acceptable, is such a terrible message and, in this case, I am happy I'm not a father trying to keep this away from my children," the 35-year-old single Army veteran added. Eric Solomon, a father of two, watched the VMAs with his 15-year-old son. "I am so embarrassed and sitting next to my son and watching this happen made me even more embarrassed," he added. Solomon said he has conversations with his sons about what's right and what's wrong, and said that they know Cyrus' performance was "not appropriate" and not the behavior of "your normal woman." Mary Hogan of Cordova, Tennessee, doesn't have kids but works in education and says parents have a role to play. "Parents need to explain to their kids that what she did is not OK, and should not be imitated," said Hogan, adding that parents who didn't like what they were seeing should have changed the channel. "I think the biggest responsibility for a parent is to know what their kids are watching," said Mark Edwards of suburban St. Louis, who has three teenage sons. "The VMAs aren't appropriate for kids under a certain age and if some parents feel discomfort over what was aired, should they have been letting their kids watch the show in the first place?" "The VMAs are supposed to be shocking," said a woman who did not want to be identified. "Why is Miley Cyrus such a big deal? ... I am more shocked people are watching the VMAs with their children." Miley Cyrus upholds MTV VMAs tradition. After all, consider VMA highlights of years past when Lady Gaga donned a dress made entirely of raw meat and Madonna and Britney Spears kissed (mouths open!). It was, in fact, at the VMAs years earlier when Madonna broke out onto the national stage with her "Like a Virgin" performance. Cyrus "took a page straight out of Madonna's playbook," said Ivan Baker, a father in New York City, on Facebook. "I guess I am jaded. Not very impressed or shocked." While much of the online conversation post-Cyrus' national "twerking" episode was dominated by criticism, there was also a very motherly and fatherly response, parents who worry that Cyrus is a child in need of serious help. "It's clear that Miley Cyrus' lifestyle as a young woman is expressing pain and is dealing with emotional problems," said Andrew Thompson, an engaged father of two boys in Country Club Hills, Illinois. "Her mother and father have a responsibility to come to her aid and work out these social issues before it's too late," he added. Some parents said there was only one upside they could see from the blistering reaction to Cyrus' performance and that is that it may show strength. "The fact that she doesn't play the victim and shows that girls can be as aggressive and bad in many ways might in some twisted way pave the way for (women) to play in a more level field with men," said Leigh Bordbar, a mom of two from Toronto who said she was personally disappointed with what Cyrus did at the VMAs. "In her performance, she seemed like the one in control and in the driver's seat, which sets her apart from the ways that perhaps Playboy or fashion models portray women." Nicky Calvert, a mom of two in Marietta, Ohio, sees another positive. "There is only one good thing that I can say about her performance on the VMAs," said Calvert. It shows her 9-year-old how she "should never act in public." May I repeat how happy I am my girls missed this one completely.

The critic consesnsus is: The combination of a shallow plot and miscast performers renders Street Fighter: The Legend of Chun Li a perfectly forgettable video game adaptation.. What reviews supported this critic consensus?
|
1. I'm not making this up. I happened to walk out of the three behind three guys. One of them said to the others: 'Did you PAY to see that?'
2. Another video game transferred to the big screen with only so so results
3. Just a boring, bad action movie - which, to be fair, means that it's one of the best video game adaptations ever made.
4. Devoid of a single redeeming feature, the motley flick is a hodge-podge of chop-socky cliches -- a ball of flaming, stinky martial arts chi.
5. Proving that there's no statute of limitations on lousy ideas, director Andrzej Bartkowiak's attempted franchise expansion returns to the Capcom motherlode that produced the worst movie in the entire Jean-Claude Van Damme filmography.
6. The Legend of Chun-Li is as vapid and dull as it is.
7. Generic action sequences, bad acting, cringe-inducing dialogue and a miscast leading lady all combine for a thoroughly painful hour and a half at the movies.
8. A long slog with little payoff.
9. It seems to work hard at not being fun...
10. Not only is this a strong early contender for worst film of the year, it could well be a candidate for the worst film ever made.

Write a question about the following article: Zrinski and Frankopan were executed by beheading on 30 April 1671 in Wiener Neustadt. Their estates were confiscated and their families relocated — Zrinski's wife, Katarina Zrinska, was interned in the Dominican convent in Graz where she fell mentally ill and remained until her death in 1673, two of his daughters died in a monastery, and his son Ivan Antun died in madness, after twenty years of terrible imprisonment and torture, on 11 November 1703. The oldest daughter Jelena, already married in northeastern Upper Hungary, survived and continued the resistance. Some 2,000 other nobles were arrested as part of a mass crackdown. Two more leading conspirators — Ferenc Nádasdy, Chief Justice of Hungary, and Styrian governor, Count Hans Erasmus von Tattenbach — were executed . In the view of Emperor Leopold, the Croats and Hungarians had forfeited their right to self-administration through their role in the attempted rebellion. Leopold suspended the constitution - already, the Zrinski trial had been conducted by an Austrian, not a Hungarian court - and ruled Hungary like a conquered province.

GOP Rep. Franks says rate of pregnancies from rape is 'very low'
By Elise Viebeck -
Rep. Trent Franks (R-Ariz.) said Wednesday that the incidence of pregnancy caused by rape is "very low," prompting criticism from Democrats who said the GOP is waging a "war on women."
Franks made the comment during a committee mark-up of his late-term abortion ban bill, which is expected pass the House next week.The Republican lawmaker was arguing against a Democratic amendment allowing rape and incest victims to procure abortions. As written, the bill only exempts women whose lives are in danger.
"You know, the incidence of rape resulting in pregnancy are very low," Franks said.
He added that the Democratic amendment should have included a requirement that rape and incest victims report the crimes against them.
The measure from Rep. John Conyers (D-Mich.) later failed, collecting 13 ayes.
The Democratic National Committee and the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee soon circulated Franks's comments in emails that mocked the GOP's effort to court women voters.
Democrats on the Judiciary Committee also blasted Franks and alluded to past controversies over GOP statements on rape and pregnancy.
Former Rep. Todd Akin (R-Mo.) was widely panned during his failed 2012 Senate bid when he said that cases of "legitimate rape" rarely lead to pregnancy.
Former Senate candidate Richard Mourdock (R) also landed in hot water when he said that "even when life begins in that horrible situation of rape, that is something God intended" to happen.
Judiciary Committee member Zoe Lofgren drew a comparison Wednesday between Franks's comment and Akin's.
"I just find it astonishing to hear a phrase repeated that the incidence of pregnancy from rape is low,” Lofgren said.
“There’s no scientific basis for that," she added. "The idea that the Republican men on this committee think they can tell the women of America that they have to carry to term the product of a rape is outrageous."
When the mark-up resumed after a lunch break, Franks denied he had said that rape rarely results in pregnancy and blasted Democrats for "trying to inject that issue."
Franks said he meant that late-term abortions performed on victims of rape are infrequent.
"I would hope that my comments would be heard in the spirit that they were offered," he said.
The GOP-led panel later rejected an amendment to exempt women whose health is in danger from the abortion ban. The measure from Rep. Jerrold Nadler (D-N.Y.) would have also widened the bill's life-in-danger exception.
Nadler characterized Franks's legislation as "another battle in the Republican war on women."
||||| Ever since Todd Akin exposed his boundless stupidity, and handed Democrats political gold, by insisting that raped women can't get pregnant, liberals have been looking for more Akins. They think they've found the latest one in Trent Franks, who, in the course of arguing that his anti-abortion ban should not make an exception for rape, said, “Before, when my friends on the left side of the aisle here tried to make rape and incest the subject — because, you know, the incidence of rape resulting in pregnancy are very low."
It sounded like Akinism to a lot of liberals. The Huffington Post reported that the remarks "echo those made last year" by Akin. But this requires changing what Franks said in a crucial way. Slate reports the story in the headline "The GOP Is Talking About Rape and Its 'Very Low' Pregnancy Rate Again." The Washington Post’s framing, tweeted by Jessica Valenti*, was similar:
The stupid, it never stops. GOP congressman: Rate of pregnancies from rape is ‘very low’ http://t.co/JT4YGZw7HN — Jessica Valenti (@JessicaValenti) June 12, 2013
But Franks didn't say the "rate" of pregnancy from rape is low. He said the "incidence" is low. He didn't say it's hard to get pregnant when you're raped. He said rape-induced pregnancy doesn't happen very often.
Is that claim, which is different than Akin's, true? Well, there are about 30,000 pregnancies from rape a year. I'd say that's a lot. I suppose that if you're comparing it to the total number of abortions, a figure that's 20 to 30 times larger, you could argue it isn't so many. From Franks's starting point, in which which abortion is murder, the United States allows massive murder of human beings on an unthinkable scale, next to which 30,000 annual pregnancies looms small. If (like me) you don't share his view of abortion, that 30,000 pregnancies looms large.
In any case, Franks was not relying on pseudoscientific nuttery about the lady-parts shutting down pregnancy in the case of rape. He was saying something different.
*This post originally attributed the characterization of Trent Frank’s comment to Valenti; in fact, it was the Washington Post’s headline.

So: Arizona Rep. Trent Franks, possibly the most stalwart anti-abortion legislator in the House, is getting another bite at the apple. He regularly introduces a bill that would ban abortion after 20 weeks and write the concept of "fetal pain" into the law. In past years, he's tailored the bill to cover only the District of Columbia, over which Congress has outsize legislative influence. This year, inspired by the Kermit Gosnell trial and its media play, Franks expanded the bill to cover the whole country.
The result is that anything Franks says is going to get covered. And Franks says things like this, in a committee hearing today—a hearing that will precede a vote on this bill, scheduled for next week.
Before, when my friends on the left side of the aisle here tried to make rape and incest the subject — because, you know, the incidence of rape resulting in pregnancy are very low. But when you make that exception, there’s usually a requirement to report the rape within 48 hours. And in this case that’s impossible because this is in the sixth month of gestation. And that’s what completely negates and vitiates the purpose for such an amendment.

The response from pro-abortion rights writers and activists could have been written blindfolded. "The latest Todd Akin is Arizona Rep. Trent Franks," wrote Elspeth Reeve in a post titled "Trent Franks is the new Todd Akin." Politico reported that "Democrats immediately pounced on the remark made by Rep. Trent Franks (R-Ariz.) at a House Judiciary Committee hearing as reminiscent of comments made by Senate candidate Todd Akin last year." As they should, really, because Franks' issue is unpopular, and gives Democrats a fresh wedge in this year's elections. (Voters pick a new senator from Massachusetts in 13 days.)
But this is a little pat. Not every comment about rape and abortion is a "Todd Akin" comment. In 2012 Todd Akin said something uniquely stupid, with roots in anti-abortion psuedoscience—that a "legitimate," violent rape, being so stressful to the woman, was unlikely to cause pregnancy. That wasn't what Richard Mourdock said in a debate for Indiana's U.S. Senate seat; he said a child resulting from a rape was part of God's design. It also wasn't what Franks said here. He referred to "the incidence of rape resulting in pregnancy," not the question of whether rape can cause pregnancy. "Incidence," as Jonathan Chait pointed out before I could, means the rate of something occuring. Franks was chiding Democrats for making every abortion debate about the most controversial aspect of abortion rights, arguing that 1) it was an outlier and 2) his bill wouldn't affect that.
||||| The House is girding for another wrenching debate on abortion after a House panel on Wednesday approved legislation that would ban almost all abortions after a fetus reaches the age of 20 weeks.
Several recent court decisions have struck down similar state laws, and the GOP-backed bill has little future in the Democratic-led Senate, but the measure will give House conservatives a rare chance to reaffirm their social issue credentials.
The bill, named the "Pain-Capable Unborn Child Protection Act," was approved by the House Judiciary Committee on a party-line 20-12 vote and could get a vote in the full House as early as next week.
House Republican leaders, concentrating on budgetary and jobs bills and investigating administration scandals, have largely avoided contentious social issues such as abortion, but anti-abortion conservatives have been spurred by the recent conviction of a Philadelphia abortion provider, Dr. Kermit Gosnell, for killing three babies born alive at his clinic.
"The terrifying facts uncovered during the course of the trial ... and successive reports of similar atrocities committed across the country, remind us how an atmosphere of insensitivity can lead to horrific brutality," said committee chairman Bob Goodlatte, R-Va.
Bill sponsor Trent Franks, R-Ariz., and others argued that there is evidence _ a contention Democrats say is unproven _ that fetuses can feel pain after five months, justifying a ban on later abortions.
A federal court in May overturned a 20-week abortion ban in Arizona, saying that the law violated a woman's right to terminate a pregnancy before a fetus is viable. Viability is generally considered to start at 24 weeks.
Some nine other states have enacted similar bans and have faced court challenges.
The National Right to Life Committee said the other state laws and the Franks bill are based on an NRLC model based on evidence that the unborn have the capacity to experience pain. It noted that the 20-week post-fertilization age used in these measures is equivalent to 22 weeks of pregnancy under a widely employed dating system.
The leaders of the House Pro-Choice Caucus, Louise Slaughter, D-N.Y., and Diana DeGette, D-Colo., said that at a time when voters want Congress to concentrate on jobs and the economy, "the House majority has instead once again decided to reignite its war on women."
Democrats pointed out that all 22 Republicans on the Judiciary Committee are men.
Franks and his allies, said NARAL Pro-Choice America President Ilyse Hogue, "are mounting a clear campaign to spur a Supreme Court case that will dismantle the protections established by Roe v. Wade," the 1973 Supreme Court decision that made most abortions legal.
Franks generated another controversy during the committee debate when, in response to a Democratic amendment making an exception to the abortion ban in cases of rape and incest, he stated that incidences of rape resulting in pregnancy "are very low."
Rep. Zoe Lofgren, D-Calif., said the statement was "astonishing" and Democrats quickly compared it to the statement of former Rep. Todd Akin, R-Mo., whose campaign for a Senate seat in Missouri collapsed last year after he stated that the female body is capable of stopping pregnancies in the case of "legitimate rape."
Franks later said that what he intended to say was the later-term abortions, such as those banned under his bill, were rarely the result of rapes.
The bill does provide for an exception to save a pregnant woman whose life is endangered by a physical illness arising from the pregnancy, but Republicans rejected Democratic amendments to expand those exceptions to include rape, incest or non-pregnancy related illnesses. ||||| Some Republican men have struggled to follow the advice of many in their party to just stop riffing on rape. The latest Todd Akin is Arizona Rep. Trent Franks, who defended his proposal to ban abortions after the 20th week of pregnancy — with no rape or incest exception — by saying the following at an actual committee meeting of the United States House of Representatives on Wednesday: "The incidence of rape resulting in pregnancy are very low." And even if a woman could get pregnant by a rapist, she would have plenty of time after the rape to get an abortion before his ban kicked in, Franks said. As The Washington Post's Aaron Blake reports, Franks explained before the House Judiciary Committee: "But when you make that exception, there’s usually a requirement to report the rape within 48 hours. And in this case that’s impossible because this is in the sixth month of gestation. And that’s what completely negates and vitiates the purpose of such an amendment."
Franks follows several Republican men who have indicated Akin — the Missouri Senate candidate who said during the 2012 election that in a "legitimate rape" a woman's body "shuts that whole thing down" — wasn't totally wrong. Indiana Senate candidate Richard Mourdock suggested a rape pregnancy was a gift from god. Wisconsin state senator Roger Rivard said his daddy used to tell him, "Just remember, Roger, some girls, they rape so easy. It may be rape the next morning." And Georgia Rep. and OB-GYN Phil Gingrey said Akin was "partly right," because when he's counseling couples with fertility troubles, he tells them, "And don't be so tense and uptight because all that adrenaline can cause you not to ovulate." And the 2014 election cycle might feature more mini-Akins, no matter what Karl Rove says.
California Rep. Zoe Lofgren responded to Franks by saying, "There's no scientific basis for that."

Summary:
|
– A bill to ban abortions nationwide after 20 weeks cleared a House panel today on a party-line vote of 20-12. While it doesn't stand a chance in the Senate, it will give House conservatives a chance to make a point when that chamber votes as early as next week, reports AP. Today's vote, however, got overshadowed when sponsor Trent Franks, an Arizona Republican, said this while criticizing an amendment to make an exception for rape or incest: "You know, the incidence of rape resulting in pregnancy are very low." Democrats immediately likened the comment to Todd Akin's gaffe that "legitimate rape" rarely caused pregnancies, reports the Hill. Franks later clarified: He intended to make the point that rape rarely causes the pregnancies that result in the later-term abortions he wants to ban, and the issue is therefore irrelevant to his bill. However you parse it, both Dave Weigel at Slate and Jonathan Chait at New York say Franks is no Todd Akin. Unlike Akin, Franks "didn't say it's hard to get pregnant when you're raped," writes Chait. "He said rape-induced pregnancy doesn't happen very often," and that's a big difference. Given that 30,000 such pregnancies occur each year, plenty of people might disagree with Franks' statement. But to a staunch opponent of abortion like Franks, that number may seem small when compared to the far higher number of abortions annually. At Atlantic Wire, Elspeth Reeve has a less-forgiving view of Franks' comments.

Use the following highlights to write an article:
Pope Francis is believed to want the Church reformers to succeed. A close ally of the Pope has proposed allowing the divorced and remarried to take Holy Communion. Conservative Catholic officials totally opposed to this move believing it is a threat to the principle of the 'indissolubility' of marriage. Church does not recognise divorces dispensed by civil courts and regards people who have remarried as adulterers.
Article:

After the conservative papacy of his predecessor Benedict XVI, Catholics were unsure what changes, if any, Francis would bring. In the first year and a half of his reign he has changed the way the Vatican Bank is run. Now it seems, he is about to overhaul a number of social dogmas that the Church has held for many years. Scroll down for video. The 77-year-old Holy Father seems determined to shake up the Church of 1.2 billion people that he leads. Around 200 bishops are arriving in Rome this weekend for an 'extraordinary synod' that begins tomorrow to discuss subjects such as marriage, divorce and cohabitation. The discussions beforehand have already caused bitter arguments among senior clergy. The 77-year-old Holy Father seems determined to shake up the Church of 1.2 billion people that he leads. Pope Francis realises that a number of the Church's strict teachings are at odds with the lives lived by many of the faithful in the developed world. 'There's a strong sense in which on this whole question of sexuality, marriage and family, the Church stands out against contemporary mores – and some people don't like to live in that tension,' Austen Ivereigh, a Catholic journalist and author of an upcoming book on Pope Francis, called The Great Reformer tells the Financial Times. 'But what conservative cardinals are saying is that if you concede ground on this, you are conceding to the culture, and that it is a slippery slope.' Cardinal Walter Kasper of Germany, a close ally of the Pope, has proposed allowing the divorced and remarried to take Holy Communion, something presently banned in the Church. The Church does not recognise divorces dispensed by civil courts and thus regards people who have remarried as adulterers. Pope Francis realises that many of the Church's strict teachings are at odds with the lives lived by many of the faithful in the developed world. However, conservative Catholic officials are totally opposed to this move believing that it is a threat to the principle of the 'indissolubility' of marriage. U.S. Cardinal Raymond Burke, Cardinal Prefect of the Supreme Tribunal of the Apostolic Signatura, Australia's Cardinal George Pell, the current Prefect of the Secretariat for the Economy and Germany's Cardinal Gerhard Muller, the Prefect of the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith, are all opposed to any change in who can take Communion. Although there have often been divisions and disagreements within the Vatican, it is unusual for them to be aired so publicly. As yet the Holy Father has not made his final decision on any of these matters and nothing is likely to change until at least 2016 after another meeting of bishops. Many believe that when a decision is taken Francis will side with the reformers. 'What Francis wants to see is a church that comes alongside those who have been wounded by marital breakdowns. He wants to see it as a place of healing – not of rigidity and judgment,' Mr Ivereigh said.

Channel 9 anchor Erica Bryant has followed Hailey’s case since the beginning, staying in touch with her parents as they held out hope that they would find her one day.
Hailey had a smile on her face when Channel 9 went to their home Monday, but her parents said she is different now.
“There are changes in my daughter. She is not the same person that left and that is the hardest part of this,” said her mother, Shaunna Burns.
They said the teen's exhausted and has lost 15-20 pounds.
Her parents can’t share all of the details of her ordeal because of the ongoing investigation, but they believe she was lured away by an older man she met online.
It turns out that when Hailey’s parents woke up and found the front door unlocked, Hailey was gone and she had been picked up less than a mile from her home.
Past coverage:
“This is our child, our baby,” Shaunna Burns said. “We would, we would never hurt her and the idea that someone did is really, really hard.”
Hailey’s parents said that a woman overseas reached out to them Saturday night.
“I got a message that said, ‘I’ve been in communication with your daughter and she’s alive and she wants to come home,’ and from there it has been like an avalanche,” Shaunna Burns said.
They said the person had communicated with Hailey, and even showed her Channel 9’s coverage of the desperate search to find her.
“She saw your stories and said, ‘Oh my God, my parents really do want me back. They miss me and they love me,’ and that’s what made her say, 'I want to go home,'” Shaunna Burns said.
Authorities rescued Hailey in Georgia and arrested the man they said had abducted her within a matter of hours.
Hailey’s parents call it a miracle and said it should give hope to others with missing loved ones.
“Families need to know don’t give up no matter how much time passes,” her father, Anthony Burns, said. “There is hope that you just have to keep believing that the one lead will come.”
Michael Ren Wysolovski, 31, was taken into custody in Georgia and is facing a number of state charges, the FBI said.
He faced a judge on Monday and was denied bond.

CHARLOTTE, N.C. - Hailey Burns, a teenager who had been missing for the past year from her Ballantyne home, was found alive over the weekend and returned from Georgia to Charlotte with her family.
An FBI special agent in Charlotte learned of information that led them to Burns, now 17, at a home in Duluth, Georgia, where she was found just after midnight Saturday.
Michael Ren Wysolovski, 31, was taken into custody in Georgia and is facing a number of state charges, the FBI said.
Wysolovski faced a judge on Monday and was denied bond after he was arrested and charged for allegedly holding Burns captive in his Duluth home, our sister station WSB-TV in Atlanta reported.
He has been charged with aggravated sodomy, cruelty to children deprivation in the 1st degree, interference with custody and false imprisonment, according to WSB-TV.
“It was a dream come true,” said Hailey's mother, Shaunna Burns.
Channel 9 reporter DaShawn Brown spoke to Hailey's parents over the phone as they drove to Charlotte from the Atlanta area with their daughter.
Past coverage:
Burns, a student at Myers Park High School, had been held captive at Wysolovski’s home.
Her parents said Hailey met the man online.

“(He) got her in the car, brought her straight to his house and she pretty much had to stay there the whole time,” Shaunna Burns said.
Shaunna Burns said that while in Georgia, Hailey met a woman online from Romania. The two started to chat when Hailey told the woman she was missing.
After researching the case, that woman contacted Hailey's parents Friday night.
“We got the first message at 8:09 (p.m.) and then by 12:32 (a.m.), they had her,” Shaunna Burns said.

Hailey’s parents said a tipster reached out to Hailey to find out where she was. Hailey didn’t know, so she took a photo from the house window, and within hours she was rescued.
Former FBI assistant director Chris Swecker said the response in the case was remarkable given that Burns didn't know where she was at.
"The victim took a picture outside and all they had to go on was the neighborhood, and what it looked like from inside the house,” Swecker said. “They did enough research and gumshoe work to figure out where that young woman was being held. That's a nice piece of work."
“We know that this happy ending is not the norm, it is the exception to the rule,” Shaunna Burns said. “We want people to know that there are happy endings to this kind of a story.”

The FBI in Charlotte and the Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police Department will continue their investigation into Burns' disappearance and will be working closely with FBI agents in Atlanta and the Gwinnett County Police Department.
A neighbor told Channel 9's sister station WSB-TV in Atlanta that he saw Hailey once unloading groceries, said hello, and didn't see any signs of distress and didn't know she was missing.

Hailey had last been seen at her home on Baldwin Drive in Charlotte at 12:30 a.m. on May 23, 2016.
Police said at the time, there was information that she may have left on her own accord, but they don’t know if she was helped by others.

Channel 9 anchor Erica Bryant had recently reported an update on the missing teenager.
“You have to let go of the hope that she will just walk through the door," Shaunna Burns said in a recent interview. “We are past that point. She is not just going to come home in the middle of the night. You have to hope that they still find her, wherever she is.”
“You have to distract yourself because you will drive yourself crazy wondering what you could have done, or could be doing,” Anthony Burns, her father, said.
A tip from one of Hailey’s classmates seemed to confirm their worst fears.
“He told me that my daughter had been talking to a 30-year-old man for over six months who was trying to convince her to talk to him, and saying that he would be her friend and she could come to him,” Anthony Burns said.
Earlier this month, Anthony Burns told Channel 9 that he hopes to publish his book of poetry, titled “5/23/16,” which is the date that Hailey disappeared.
He said he would like all of the proceeds to go to organizations that help families with missing children.
(Eyewitness News anchor Erica Bryant's June 2 story on Hailey Burns)
Anthony Burns provided Channel 9 with a copy of the forward from his book of poetry:
On May 23rd 2016 my wife and I awoke to get our 16 year old daughter up for school Monday morning.
In her bed was a pile of stuffed animals and a journal with happy thoughts and a plan to leave our home.
As the days that followed would reveal there was much more to what happened to my daughter on that day and it will forever change my life.
I am writing this for the parents of missing persons who are waiting for news of what has happened to their child.
My daughter was troubled and had psychological problems that were diagnosed and clouded her judgment. I was working very closely with her to get her on track spending evenings trying to bond with her and feeling as if I was making some progress.
But then on 05/23/2016 my life was forever changed.
I miss you Hailey and as a published poet I hope if you read this you will understand that all of this is done for you and to help others avoid the loss that our family feels now that you are gone.
I love you my perfect daughter
Your real “Daddy”

By. Tom Kelly. PUBLISHED:. 12:11 EST, 9 October 2013. |. UPDATED:. 19:38 EST, 9 October 2013. In his former life, he was accustomed to fighting court battles on behalf of other people. But barrister-turned-porn baron Paul Baxendale-Walker has now found himself at the centre of his own legal row – with one of his harem of ‘hunny bunnies’. The millionaire adult entertainment boss has boasted of having more than a dozen girls at his beck and call, offering them a luxury lifestyle and lavish gifts in return for satisfying his sexual needs. Paul Baxendale-Walker and Natasha Eustace at a charity wrestling event last year. The two are in a legal dispute over ownership of a flat and Range Rover. When he decided to drop one of these. women, however, she began making her own demands – insisting he let her. keep the £300,000 Home Counties flat and Range Rover he had funded. Former. glamour model Natasha Anastasia Eustace claimed that far from being one. of many dalliances for the porn tycoon – who sometimes stars in his. adult films – they had a ‘loving relationship’ and had discussed. marriage. MR Baxendale-Walker has starred in porn films made by his own company, the court heard. Yesterday. Oxford-educated Mr Baxendale-Walker lost the first round of a High. Court battle with his ex-lover as a judge dismissed his attempts to. throw out the case. Mr. Justice Males ruled that 25-year-old Miss Eustace may have been more. than ‘just another stripper who would have sex with him in exchange for. temporary material benefits’ and ordered a full trial to decide the. issue. He said that after graduating Mr Baxendale-Walker, 49, worked as a barrister and later as a solicitor specialising in tax law. ‘Some. people might have found that exciting enough but … he [later] acquired. and ran a company making pornographic films in which he also starred,’ the judge said. ‘He describes himself now as a wealthy man living a playboy lifestyle. ‘His. lifestyle involves essentially casual relationships with multiple. sexual partners, a group or club of women known as his “hunny bunnies” to whom, in return for their sexual favours, he makes lavish gifts,. including money, clothes and holidays, as well as providing flats and. cars for their use.’ According. to Mr Baxendale-Walker, Miss Eustace was a member of this club and. their relationship was casual and ‘non-exclusive’ on both sides before. it ended in October 2012. Mr. Baxendale-Walker, who bought lads’ magazine Loaded in May 2012, had. told the court that Miss Eustace ‘was never anything more than a TV. stripper and glamour model, who provided sex and occasional. companionship in exchange for a comfortable and conditional standard of. living’. The flat at the centre of the dispute is located in picturesque Walton-on-Thames in Surrey. File picture. ‘She is only one of more than a dozen girls for whom I procure the provision [of] housing, cars and other benefits,’ he said. ‘The provision is always conditional on my satisfaction with the relationship. ‘As soon as I am no longer satisfied, the benefits are withdrawn’. But Miss Eustace claimed the pair had a ‘loving and close relationship’ which lasted until the beginning of this year. A file picture of a Range Rover. Miss Eustace claims the former lawyer gave her a car like tjis while they were in a long-term relationship. Despite. arguments over Mr Baxendale-Walker’s dalliances with other women, she. said she understood their relationship to be intended as a long-term and. faithful one, and insisted the couple had discussed marriage more than. once. After their break-up she demanded she was allowed to keep her. vehicle and flat in Walton-on-Thames, Surrey. The. judge quoted a number of ‘rambling and emotional’ emails from the porn. baron which he said did indicate there was more to the relationship than. Mr Baxendale-Walker’s ungallant descriptions suggested. Last. June, Mr Baxendale-Walker wrote to his lover: ‘It is the Natasha colour. of my soul. I guess it must always have been there, but it took you. coming into my life to awaken it. ‘Since then, my life has not been the same. It can never be the same. ‘The specialness of who you are has opened my heart as I never knew it could be. That is an amazing, beautiful thing…’ The. judge said the messages had a ‘genuine ring’ and that there was likely. to be ‘fertile ground for cross-examination on both sides’ during the. trial. He added: ‘The case may well look rather different at the end of a trial.’ Sorry we are unable to accept comments for legal reasons.
Here is a summary of the highlights for this article:

Paul Baxendale-Walker says he did not give Natasha Eustace the flat. She was reportedly a member of a harem of women he gave gifts for sex. Mr Baxendale-Walker bought men's mag last year. Miss Eustace says they were in a relationship and she owns the flat.

Write an article that answers the following question: How many years did low level warfare last?
|
The intervention of Denmark, Sweden and Poland-Lithuania into Livonia began a period of struggle for control of the Baltic, known contemporaneously as the dominium maris baltici. While the initial war years were characterised by intensive fighting, a period of low-intensity warfare began in 1562 and lasted until 1570 when fighting once more intensified. Denmark, Sweden and to some extent Poland-Lithuania were occupied with the Nordic Seven Years' War taking place in the Western Baltic, but Livonia remained strategically important. In 1562, Denmark and Russia concluded the Treaty of Mozhaysk, respecting each other's claims in Livonia and maintaining amicable relations. In 1564, Sweden and Russia concluded a seven-years truce. Both Ivan IV and Eric XIV showed signs of mental disorder, with Ivan IV turning against part of the Tsardom's nobility and people with the oprichina that began in 1565, leaving Russia in a state of political chaos and civil war.

Still searching for their first win of the year, the Falcons stayed at home for an interconference duel with the Houston Texans, featuring a former teammate in QB Matt Schaub. In the first quarter, Atlanta delivered the first punch with kicker Morten Andersen getting a 28-yard field goal. However, the Texans took the lead with Schaub completing a 35-yard TD pass to WR André Davis. The Falcons regained the lead with QB Joey Harrington completing a 5-yard TD pass to WR Michael Jenkins. In the second quarter, Harrington and Jenkins hooked up with each other again on a 7-yard TD pass. Also, Andersen contributed to Atlanta's cause by kicking a 22-yard field goal. Houston ended the half with kicker Kris Brown getting a 42-yard field goal. In the third quarter, the Texans drew close with Brown kicking a 37-yard field goal. The Falcons responded with Andersen getting a 36-yard field goal. In the fourth quarter, Houston tried to retaliate with Brown kicking a 19-yard field goal. Again, Atlanta answered with Andersen nailing a 46-yard field goal. Afterwards, the Falcons held on to give head coach Bobby Petrino his first NFL victory. With the win, the Falcons snapped a six-game losing skid and improved to 1-3.

Write an article based on this summary:
– It's another recall for Toyota, this time over a potential airbag flaw—a problem exacerbated by rogue spiders. Spiderwebs, CNNMoney explains, can block air conditioning drainage tubes in the affected 2012 and 2013 Camrys, Venzas, and Avalons (including hybrid models). Water can end up dripping into airbag controls; warning lights may then turn on, and airbags may "become disabled or could inadvertently deploy," the company says, per the BBC. Warning lights have turned on in 35 cases, to Toyota's knowledge, and airbags have inflated three times. When the company probed the issue, spiderwebs were "the only consistent cause," CNNMoney notes. The company is recalling 847,000 vehicles in North America and tens of thousands more worldwide, for a total of 885,000, according to the BBC. Mazda had a spider problem in 2011.

Image caption The Camry is the best selling car in the US, which is a key market for Toyota
Toyota is recalling 885,000 vehicles to fix a problem that could cause a water leak from the air conditioning unit.
It said water could leak into the airbag control module, causing a short circuit and triggering a warning light.
In some cases airbags "could become disabled or could inadvertently deploy" and in limited cases the power steering function could be disabled, it added.
The models affected by the recall are the Camry, Camry Hybrid, Avalon, Avalon Hybrid, and Venza made in 2012-13.
Some 847,000 cars will be recalled in North America, while the rest will be in Europe, Asia and the Middle East.
A spokeswoman for Toyota told the BBC that it had received reports of two minor injuries due to the issue, but there had been no reports of any vehicles crashing.
Reputational damage?
This is the third major recall that Toyota has issued in recent weeks.
Last month, the company called back more than 780,000 vehicles in the US to address a suspension defect in its RAV4 and Lexus HS 250h models, after fears that an initial recall last year did not fix the problem.
Analysis Toyota's latest announcement puts the number of recalls over the past two years at nearly 20 million. That is far more than the number it called back in 2009 and 2010 - widely seen as the worst years for its reputation. Toyota's sales had suffered in the aftermath of those recalls, which were prompted by problems with accelerator pedals becoming trapped under floor mats. The current recalls haven't been linked to any major incidents or crashes. But 20 million is a huge number and the recalls have been spread across various models and unrelated issues. It is a big blow for Toyota, which has been trying to rebuild its reputation as a maker of high quality cars.
In September, it recalled 615,000 Sienna minivans in the US to fix a lever problem that could cause vehicles to shift out of park mode "without the driver depressing the brake pedal".
Toyota said at the time that it was aware of 24 "minor accidents" due to the issue.
In recent weeks more than 2.2 million vehicles have been recalled.
Analysts said the recalls could have an impact on its reputation with the customers.
"Repeated recalls definitely dent the image of any carmaker," Vivek Vaidya, an auto analyst with consulting firm Frost & Sullivan told the BBC.
"If you have one big recall, it is still manageable. But if (a company) calls back different vehicle models at different times for unrelated issues, customers tend to have a re-think about your quality assurance.
"And if the problem involves airbag deployment - it becomes a serious issue," he added.
The latest move takes the total number of cars recalled by Toyota this year to six million vehicles. ||||| NEW YORK (CNNMoney)
Toyota is recalling 870,000 vehicles because a problem with an air conditioner part could cause airbags to deploy unnecessarily .
In some cases, the problem was caused by spiders.
Sometimes, their webs can create a blockage in a drainage tube coming from the air conditioning condenser. That can cause water to drip down onto an airbag control module, causing a short circuit. That, in turn, could cause the airbag warning light to light up on the dashboard and it could even cause the driver's side airbag to deploy, something that happens with explosive force.
In some cases, there could also be a loss of power-steering force, Toyota (TM) said.
The vehicles involved are model year 2012 and 2013 Camrys, Venzas and Avalons, including hybrid versions of those cars.
Gallery - Five really good big cars
So far, Toyota is aware of three airbag deployments as a result of this and 35 cases of warning lights coming on, Toyota spokeswoman Cindy Knight said. In the cases Toyota has investigated, the only consistent cause of the blockages has been spider webs. Knight could not say if spiderwebs caused every incident, however.
Spiders sometimes build webs inside tubes in cars. In 2011, Mazda recalled 52,000 Mazda6 sedans for a problems caused by spiders building webs inside a vent line for the gasoline tank.
To fix the problem, Toyota dealers will make fixes to block water from dripping onto the airbag module. Owners will be notified by mail to take their vehicle to a Toyota dealer where the necessary work will be performed at no charge. |||||

I don't give 1-star often, but I think this "staple" has earned it with the "winning" combo of overpriced food & beer, lack of menu options, and non-existent service. I came here on Friday to join a few friends after work for drinks and for the free personalized Guinness pint glass offer. The bartender turned out to be also the waiter for us in the back dining room, which means we seldomly saw him. He wasn't exactly friendly, but I guess he got the job done at the minimum since he did bring us our beer and put in our food order and checked on us every now and then... but was a smile that hard to come by? Do I really have to be a regular to get any friendly service? Worst was the food runner... which we didn't know that's her only job there (not like they have waitstaff uniforms on for us to distinguish). So when a late comer asked her to take his beer order, she snapped back "I am not your waiter!" WELL, thank goodness she wasn't our waiter with that attitude. More interestingly, this very same food runner had to deliver a dish to the corner table next to ours that was blocked in by 2 big tables (ours and another one). Instead of doing her job the right way and walk around the both big tables to get to the corner table, she just pretty much demanded my friend to get up & push in the chair, so she could squeeze by... how lazy and unprofessional was that?! That pretty much set the tone for an unpleasant night for me. To add salt in a wound, besides Guinness that was on special at the bargain price of $4, Fat Tire was $5... I didn't think Fat Tire is that caliber of a beer. Food was pricey as well, $4 for a basket of fries but with curry sauce (which would be the only reason I order fries/chips in an English pub) is $5, $14 for fish & chips and that didn't look like a huge order. They had more wings options than anything thing else... but if I want wings I probably would have gone to somewhere else. I ended up with $8.50 of blacken fish tacos. It was ok, the fish still had lots of liquid after being cooked, which didn't mix well with the slaw and tortilla wrap. I did enjoy the cup of soup as my side. In short, I echo the other reviewer: I'll go to Big Ben any day over this joint if I am feeling a British pub mode. At least they have better menu options, and most certainly better service.

Background: The Flaming Lips are an American rock band formed in 1983 in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma. The group recorded several albums and EPs on an indie label, Restless, in the 1980s and early 1990s. After signing to Warner Brothers, they released their first record with Warner, "Hit to Death in the Future Head" (1992). They later released The Soft Bulletin (1999), which was NME magazine's Album of the Year, and then Yoshimi Battles the Pink Robots (2002).
Context: The Flaming Lips formed in Norman, Oklahoma in 1983 with Wayne Coyne on guitar, his brother Mark singing lead vocals, Michael Ivins on bass and Dave Kotska on drums. The band debuted at Oklahoma City's Blue Note Lounge. After they got Dave Kotska as the drummer, Richard English joined the band in 1984. That same year they recorded their only release with Mark Coyne singing lead vocals-The Flaming Lips. After his brother's departure, Wayne assumed the vocal duties and the band released their first full-length album, Hear It Is, on Pink Dust Records (the psychedelic-rock imprint of Enigma Records) in 1986. This line-up recorded two more albums: 1987's Oh My Gawd!!! and 1989's Telepathic Surgery, the latter originally planned to be a 30-minute sound collage. Drummer Nathan Roberts replaced English and guitarist Jonathan Donahue (also a member of the alternative rock band Mercury Rev) joined in 1989. In a Priest Driven Ambulance, their first album with producer Dave Fridmann, was recorded at the State University of New York in Fredonia for $5 an hour on a $10,000 budget. The album was host to a marked expansion in the band's sound and their previous experiments in tape loops and effects were given a more prominent role. During this period, Coyne made his transition to a higher, more strained vocal style akin to Neil Young, which he first used on Telepathic Surgery's "Chrome Plated Suicide" and has employed ever since. In 1990 the band caught the attention of Warner Bros. Records and were signed promptly after a representative of the label witnessed a show at which the band almost burned down the venue (American Legion Hall in Norman, Oklahoma) with the use of pyrotechnics.
Question: Was Michael Ivins and Dave Kotska their friends before the band formed?. Whats the answer?
