Dr. Mohsen’s comments illustrated the changing dynamic of an uprising that has captivated the Arab world, reverberating through Jordan , Sudan and Yemen , where there were peaceful protests on Thursday. New calls for protests went out in Algeria , Bahrain and Libya .
From festive scenes of just days ago, the revolt has become more martial, as exhausted men defend what they describe as the perimeter of a free Egypt around Tahrir Square. Their demands have grown more forceful and the uprising more radical. After pitched clashes of two days that left at least seven dead and hundreds wounded, banners in Tahrir Square declared Mr. Mubarak “a war criminal,” and several in the crowd said that the president should be executed. Major television networks were largely unable to broadcast from the square on Thursday.
The United States joined a chorus of criticism, with Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton saying, “We condemn in the strongest terms attacks on peaceful demonstrators, human rights activists, foreigners and diplomats.”
The government’s strategy seems motivated at turning broader opinion in the country against the protests and perhaps wearing down the demonstrators themselves, some of whom seemed exhausted by the clashes. Vice President Omar Suleiman , appointed Saturday to a position that Mr. Mubarak had until then refused to fill, appealed to Egypt’s sense of decency in allowing Mr. Mubarak to serve out his term, and he chronicled the mounting losses that, he said, the uprising had inflicted on a crippled Egyptian economy.
“End your sit-in,” he said. “Your demands have been answered.”
Mr. Mubarak said in an interview with ABC that he was eager to step down but if he did, “Egypt would sink into chaos.”
In interviews and statements, the government has increasingly spread an image that foreigners were inciting the uprising, a refrain echoed in the streets. The suggestions are part of a days-long Egyptian media campaign that has portrayed the protesters as troublemakers and ignored the scope of an uprising with diffuse goals and leadership.
“Millions turn out to support Mubarak,” read the banner headline on Thursday on the front page of Al Ahram, the leading government newspaper.

The propaganda has been so pronounced that an announcer on Nile Television, Shahira Amin, quit. “I cleared my conscience and walked out,” she said.

The Committee to Protect Journalists said it had 100 reports of attacks on journalists. Al Jazeera , the influential Arabic channel, said government supporters stormed the Hilton Hotel in Cairo , searching for journalists, and two of its reporters were attacked. A Greek journalist was stabbed with a screwdriver and others were beaten and harassed.
Police also raided the Hisham Mubarak Law Center, a headquarters for many of the international human rights organizations working in Egypt. The human rights workers were told to lie on the floor and the chips were removed from the telephones, someone present in the building said, speaking on condition of anonymity for fear of retribution.
As the day wore on, tension descended across parts of the city, which is still guarded by popular committees that banded together after the police withdrew Saturday. Government supporters roamed parts of the downtown, itching for a fight, and looters set fire to a shopping mall along the Nile that was already looted and burned Friday.
The menace was a counterpoint to Tahrir Square, where the literati and well-off demonstrators mixed with the poorest of rough-and-tumble neighborhoods in scenes of camaraderie and determination that have made the square an emblem of the revolt. Protesters flashed V-for-victory signs at dawn, celebrating their success in holding the square and even pushing the barricades forward in clashes that dragged through the night.
Protesters accused government supporters of trying to block them from delivering supplies to the square, but boxes of water, bananas, yogurt and medicine still made it in. The Internet was working. Volunteers swept the streets, pushing piles of rocks to the curb that looked like bluffs of snow. Doctors staffed first-aid clinics, near graffiti that read, “We are writing the history of a free Egypt,” and men frisked people entering for weapons.
“Don’t incite them!” shouted Mahmoud Haqiqi, holding aloft a sign that read, “No to shedding of blood.” But even those who lamented the turn to violence blamed Mr. Mubarak’s supporters for provoking them and vowed not to relinquish the square. “Right now, it’s all here, protecting Tahrir Square,” said Hisham Kassem, a veteran activist and publisher, who kept a wary eye on barricades built with corrugated tin, wrecked cars and trucks, barrels, buckets filed with sand and metal railing torn from the curb. “We keep it tonight, and tomorrow the whole country is going to come out.”
He surveyed the crowd and shook his head. “I can’t face the idea of this failing.”
For days, the government seemed to stagger at the scale of an uprising that overwhelmed Egypt’s once ubiquitous security forces on Friday. The concessions on Thursday marked its most concerted attempt to address at least some of the longstanding demands in a country that many believe has stagnated under Mr. Mubarak’s rule. The newly appointed prime minister, Ahmed Shafiq, apologized for the violence and vowed to investigate who instigated it. Mr. Suleiman followed with a lengthy television interview in which he recognized what he described as “the revolution of the youth.”
Mr. Suleiman sought to project an image of good will, offering dialogue with the Muslim Brotherhood, which remains banned, even though it is the country’s most influential opposition group. In a sign of the new landscape, Mr. Suleiman referred to it by name rather than the government’s usual coded language, though he and Mr. Mubarak have both suggested it was behind the revolt. Its followers have played a forceful role in the protests, but its leaders have, so far, tried to remain in the background.

“We have contacted the Muslim Brotherhood and invited them, but they are still hesitant about the dialogue,” he said. “I think that their interest is to attend the dialogue.”
Other concessions came from Egypt’s public prosecutor, who issued a travel ban on former government ministers and an official of the ruling National Democratic Party on suspicion of theft of public money, profiteering and fraud, state television reported. Among the four was the hated former interior minister, Habib el-Adly, who commanded a police force that was widely despised for its corruption and routine use of torture.
So far, the government’s concessions have done little to diminish the protests, but the relentless message of officials that Egypt faced chaos seemed, at least anecdotally, to be finding an audience. ||||| As the situation intensifies in Egypt, journalists are increasingly targeted [AFP] Journalists in Egypt – domestic and foreign – are increasingly under siege, with Egyptian authorities detaining reporters and gangs of young men roaming the streets looking for anyone with camera equipment.
Some of the pressure has come from the government: Six Al Jazeera journalists were detained for several hours earlier this week, and while they were eventually released, their equipment remains with the police.
Earlier on Thursday concerns were raised as another three reporters went missing. They have now returned, safe and well, to their hotel.
Two New York Times reporters were reportedly arrested – or "taken into protective custody", as the government termed it.
'Israeli spy' rumours
Spotters stand outside many hotels, watching balconies with high-powered binoculars. When they see balconies with camera equipment or photographers, they use radios to call in the details.
Egyptian police sources say that information from those spotters has been used to conduct several raids on journalists' hotel rooms in recent days.
And the government has reportedly pressured several hotels not to extend the reservations of foreign journalists.
But most of the intimidation and violence has come from unofficial sources: Young men loiter outside the hotels where many reporters are staying, shouting at (and sometimes attacking) anyone with equipment.
Hotel lobbies are filled with journalists and camera crews wearing bandages, and many have been restricted to watching the events in Tahrir Square from their hotel balconies. Click here for more on Al Jazeera's special coverage Egyptian state television has actively tried to foment the unrest by reporting that "Israeli spies" have infiltrated the city – which explains why many of the gangs who attack reporters shout "yehudi!" ("Jew!").
The area around Tahrir Square has become a virtual no-go zone for camera crews, which were assaulted on Wednesday almost as soon as they entered the area controlled by supporters of Egyptian president Hosni Mubarak.
Several of them were mistaken for Al Jazeera crews, and were chased off by young men wielding sticks and chanting, "Jazeera! Jazeera!".
CNN anchor Anderson Cooper said his crew was also assaulted on Tuesday night after being mistaken for an Al Jazeera crew.
A reporter for the Al Arabiya network was kidnapped for several hours during Wednesday’s protest.
The violence has come exclusively from the Mubarak supporters: There have been no reports of pro-democracy demonstrators attacking or intimidating the media.
Egyptian journalists, too, have been the victims of angry mobs, all of them affiliated with the pro-Mubarak crowd. Sarah El Sirgany, an editor with the Daily News Egypt, tweeted that her brother was assaulted while trying to protect a group of reporters attacked by an angry mob.
An Al Jazeera reporter was held at knifepoint by a group of young men on Thursday morning. One man’s face was still bloodied from the previous night’s fighting.
Bloggers, too, have become targets: The popular Egyptian blogger Sandmonkey has reportedly been arrested (it's unclear by who).
International condemnation
The United States and Britain have condemned what they call the intimidation of foreign journalists reporting on events in Egypt.
Robert Gibbs, White House spokesman, called for the release of any journalist who had been detained in the country and said acts to intimidate the media were "completely and totally unacceptable".
PJ Crowley, state department spokesman, added: "There is a concerted campaign to intimidate international journalists in Cairo and interfere with their reporting. We condemn such actions."
Britain's foreign minister also said the intimidation and harassment of journalists was "unacceptable and disturbing".
The New York-based Committee to Protect Journalists called the attacks on journalists an attempt at "blanket censorship" by the government, and listed a number of reported assaults against Egyptian, Arabic and international media. |||||
What is a one-paragraph summary of the above article? | – Egyptian authorities launched a systematic crackdown on the press today, rounding up journalists and sending armed gangs through the streets to attack anyone with camera equipment. Two New York Times journalists were detained overnight, and then released this morning, the paper reports. In addition to the gangs, the government has stationed “spotters” with binoculars outside many hotels to scan balconies for camera crews, al-Jazeera reports. When they spot one, they radio police to raid the hotel. The government says the journalists aren’t being arrested—they’re being taken into “protective custody.” The state-run news agency has asked all foreign journalists to evacuate Tahrir Square, ostensibly for their own safety. The government has also targeted human rights groups, according to the Times. Security forces raided a law center that had been a staging ground for several non-governmental organizations, ordering everyone to lie on the ground and confiscating their cellphones. Two people were taken for interrogation. | 3 | Flan2021 | multi_news:1.0.0 | zs_opt |
Write an article with the title: "Russian missiles to counter U.S. defence plan: Medvedev"
Article: |
Russian President Dmitry Medvedev vowed to deploy missiles near Poland in response to U.S. plans for a European shield during a speech on Wednesday. (Ivan Sekretarev/Associated Press)Russia will deploy short-range missiles in the Baltic Sea region near the border with Poland in response to plans by the United States to build an anti-missile system in Europe, President Dmitry Medvedev said on Wednesday.
The proposed U.S. anti-missile system, which would include 10 missile silos in Poland and a radar station in the Czech Republic to help detect and shoot down any ballistic missiles, threatens Russia's national security, Medvedev said in his state-of-the-nation address on Wednesday.
"To neutralize â if necessary â the [U.S.] anti-missile system, an Iskander missile system will be deployed in the Kaliningrad region," Medvedev said. "Naturally, we are also considering using for the same purpose the resources of Russia's navy."
Czech Foreign Minister Karel Schwarzenberg said if Russia went ahead with the deployment it would worsen the atmosphere for any international dialogue in the region.
Lithuanian President Valdus Adamkus issued a statement saying Russia's plan was beyond comprehension.
But in Poland, Prime Minister Donald Tusk played down the plan.
"We have been used to the fact that Russia growls every now and then," Tusk said. "I would not give too much meaning to this declaration."
Russia will be scrapping its plans to decommission three Cold War-era missile regiments and will be developing systems to electronically jam elements of the proposed anti-missile system, he said.
"Mechanisms must be created to block mistaken, egoistical and sometimes simply dangerous decisions of certain members of the international community," he said.
Medvedev did not disclose how many of the short-range missiles will be deployed or whether they will be fitted with nuclear warheads.
Russia's nuclear arsenal has the capability to hit targets anywhere in the world but the Iskander missiles have a range of up to 400 kilometres and pose a greater threat to eastern Europe than the United States.
The "new configuration for the military forces" in relation to Russia's missile plan have already been approved, he said.
Shop assistants watch Russian President Dmitry Medvedev making the address to the nation on Wednesday. (Mikhail Metzel/Associated Press)During the speech, Medvedev painted Russia as a country threatened by growing Western military might.
"From what we have seen in recent years, the creation of a missile defence system, the encirclement of Russia with military bases, the relentless expansion of NATO, we have gotten the strong impression that they are testing our strength," Medvedev said.
President-elect Barack Obama's administration must take steps to improve U.S. ties with Russia, he said.
"I stress that we have no problem with the American people, no inborn anti-Americanism and we hope that our partners, the U.S. administration, will make a choice in favour of full-fledged relations with Russia," Medvedev said.
Russian-American relations have been increasingly tense and were driven to a post-Cold War low by Moscow's war with U.S. ally Georgia earlier this year.
"Medvedev was very assertive in his delivery," said Ronald Smith, chief strategist at Alfa Bank in Moscow. "[He] appeared to be staking out strong positions on various issues ahead of the entry of the new American presidential administration."
During the speech, Medvedev also proposed extending the presidential term from four years to six to allow the government to more effectively implement reforms.
He said the change would be phased in first as five years and then bumped up to six and that the parliament's term should also be extended from four years to five with a requirement that cabinet report to legislators more regularly.
The proposals are Medvedev's first major initiative to amend the constitution since he was elected in March to succeed his longtime mentor, Vladimir Putin.
Putin has also said in the past that the presidential term should be increased. | 7 | Flan2021 | newsroom:1.0.0 | zs_opt |
Tanning salons are offering discounted solarium deals before a ban on the controversial machines kicks in on New Year's Day, triggering health concerns. Beauty salon Skin Essentials in Elwood of Melbourne is among those promoting $1.50-a-minute specials before the ban on commercial solariums come into force from January 1 across the country. It comes after the government announced a three year introduction period for the ban allowing the solaria industry time to transition their business to safer alternatives. With the government cracking down on sunbeds in an effort to reduce skin cancer rates, businesses who operate under the new laws will face heavy fines. Commercial solariums will be banned in all states except Western Australia in a bid to reduce skin cancer. Chair of public health of Cancer Council Australia Craig Sinclair said any businesses operating after the New Year will face heavy fines. Chair of public health of Cancer Council Australia Craig Sinclair said businesses operating solariums after the New Year will be operating illegally in Australia and will subject to significant fines by state authorities. ‘These operators are using their last breath of legitimacy but any efforts to bring in more customers is not a good thing especially when they know they can't operate when the ban takes effect in two weeks time,’ Sinclair told Daily Mail Australia. ‘With the evidence found in recent studies, there is a strong link between melanoma and sunbed use. Research shows that one in every six people who use a solarium has a greater risk of melanoma than those who do not use it. ‘We're dealing with an operation that is clearly designed for cosmetic use – clearly balancing lies verses desire for cosmetic so it's sensible for the government to make the right decision.' It has been estimated that each year in Australia, 281 melanoma cases, 43 melanoma related deaths and 2,572 squamous cell carcinomas are attributable to solarium use. ‘There is a strong link between sunbeds and melanoma deaths reported and the sooner solariums cease to operate, the more lives will be saved,’ Sinclair said. ‘Ultimately, not only are people putting their skin at risk but they’re putting their own lives at risk who continue to use sunbeds. ‘There is no such thing as a safe tan from using UV sources but there are much safer alternative options people do such as spray on tans, which beauty services have already offer.’ It has been estimated that each year in Australia, 43 melanoma related deaths are attributable to solarium use. Until the ban becomes effective , all commercial solaria businesses will continue to operate sunbeds. Skin Essentials co-owner Amie Mita told Daily Mail Australia that the government’s ban on solariums should’ve been dealt differently. ‘I think it’s an odd thing to take away people’s choice but I’m not going to agree or disagree with the ban but it could’ve been done a different way,’ she said. ‘Educate people on UV light and encourage them to speak to their doctors and do mandatory skin checks every year – this is something we’ve been highly promoting to our clients. ‘We have well-trained staff here who tell our clients “how much is too much” and we make sure they wear enough sunscreen if they’re going to be outdoors. ‘We know too much UV is not good and our sessions usually run between four minutes to a maximum of 16 and we always top it up with spray tan when our clients request to be darker. Skin Essentials is currently running specials - alerting clients through text message about the 'end of era' deals - charging $14 for eight minutes, and an extra $1.50-a-minute after that. ‘The special is a little novelty that we offer every now and then but we wanted to see our clients and let them know we’re still here and will continue our other beauty services when the solarium ban is lifted.’ Until the ban becomes effective on 31 December 2014, all commercial solaria businesses in NSW, Victoria, Queensland and South Australia will continue to be subject to existing Regulation introduced in 2009. Western Australia and Tasmania are yet to announce a ban.
Write highlights for this article. | Commercial solariums will be banned in all states except WA and Tasmania. The ban will come into force on January 1, 2015.

– David Sokol gave a lengthy, defiant interview on CNBC this morning, in which he breezily insisted that he’d done absolutely nothing wrong or unethical by buying 96,000 shares of Lubrizol, and then recommending boss Warren Buffett buy the company. Some had urged Sokol to get a securities lawyer before going on TV, Daily Intel reports, but Sokol went ahead with the interview without one—and might well regret it. Jim Cramer likened it to “a Charlie Sheen implosion interview.” Sokol insisted he “didn’t have any inside information,” and that he didn’t think there was anything wrong with investing all that family capital in a company Berkshire Hathaway had no knowledge of. But asked if he would do the deal again in hindsight, he replied “What I would do differently is I just would never have mentioned it to Warren, and just made my own investment and left it alone. I think that’s a disservice to Berkshire, but if that’s what people want to do in the future, that’s fine.”
Expand this summary. | Repeatedly insisting that he did nothing wrong, David Sokol tells CNBC that looking back in light of widespread criticism, he still would have bought shares in Lubrizol, but wouldn't have told Warren Buffett anything about the company, including his belief that it would be a good acquisition for Berkshire Hathaway.
Last night's news release announcing Sokol's surprise resignation as one of Berkshire's top executives included several paragraphs on Sokol's purchase of Lubrizol stock before he recommended it to Buffett as a potential acquisition.
Berkshire ultimately did buy the company for $9 billion earlier this month, sending its stock higher and increasing the value of Sokol's holdings by around $3 million.
That has many on Wall Street asking if Sokol did something improper, if not illegal.
During a live, exclusive interview this morning on CNBC's Squawk Box, Becky Quick asked him, "If you had to do it over, seeing the hoopla that's broken out, if you had to do it over, would you change your mind on it?"
Sokol's reply:
"Knowing today what I know, what I would do differently is I just would never have mentioned it to Warren, and just made my own investment and left it alone. I think that's a disservice to Berkshire, but if that's what people want to do in the future, that's fine. You can't, or at least I don't think you can, ask executives to not invest their own family's capital in a company that Berkshire had no interest, or even knowledge of, and somehow police that. The only thing you can do is just say if you invest your own money, don't ever mention it to anybody at Berkshire. That doesn't make sense to me either, but that's certainly what it sounds like."
During the interview, Sokol said he had no special insider knowledge, and never does. He didn't think Buffett would actually be interested in buying Lubrizol, and had no role at all in Berkshire's decision-making process on acquisitions and investments. ||||| the oracle from omaha Ex-Berkshire Exec Says He Did Nothing Wrong by Buying Shares Before Getting Warren Buffett to Invest
David Sokol, the man widely seen as the heir to Warren Buffett's throne, went on CNBC's Squawk Box this morning to discuss his resignation from Berkshire Hathaway. Buffett shocked the financial world yesterday afternoon by announcing Sokol's departure — along with a revelation that Berkshire Hathaway spent $9 billion to acquire Lubrizol, a lubricant manufacturer, on Sokol's urging two months after Sokol personally purchased 96,060 Lubrizol shares. Amid rumors of impropriety, Buffett reassured investors,
“Neither Dave nor I feel his Lubrizol purchases were in any way unlawful. He has told me that they were not a factor in his decision to resign.”
But Buffett, who is now 80 years old and sans succession plan, also probably wants to avoid the wrong kind of attention.
Sokol didn't seem to be as worried about that when he appeared solo on Squawk Box this morning. Financial types furiously advised Sokol to get himself a securities lawyer — and Buffett to get a compliance department. "Obviously, it makes for better TV if Sokol doesn't have a lawyer... but it also makes for better evidence if charges r ever filed," tweeted Fortune.com's Dan Primack. After hearing Sokol's interview, it's easy to see why.
Asked if he did anything illegal or immoral, Sokol said he did not, adding, "I didn't have any inside information." Then Sokol said he didn't see anything wrong with an executive investing family capital in a company that Berkshire had no knowledge of [ed note: *before* the deal]. Sokol also noted that he has not heard from the (newly investigation-happy) SEC. But it gets worse. Sokol volunteered that in retrospect, he would have bought the Lubrizol stock but not mentioned the company to Buffett, emphasizing that he never thought his boss would be interested.
Sokol's reasoning doesn't explain why the extent of the stock purchase wasn't disclosed while he continued to pitch Berkshire on Lubrizol and Buffet's interest was piqued. Now who would do that to a nice old man who probably wanted to give you his $250 billion company ... at some point, since he isn't interested in stepping down yet, and urges you to make your grandchildren paupers.

Answer based on context:
On 12 February 2017, a series of riots began across the Khuzestan province continuing for about a week. Protesters reportedly expressed solidarity with fellow countrymen, chanting slogans against the Iranian government. Initially the protests were targeted against lack of vital daily services, but the atmosphere quickly grew political with the crowd beginning to chant "Death to tyranny," "Death to repression," "We the people of Ahvaz will not accept oppression," Expel incompetent officials," "Ahwaz is our city, clean air is our right," and "Shame on state police." Iranian government responded to the unrest by issuing a statement warning people to refrain from "illegal gatherings" and serious action will be taken against any and all violators. Riot police units were dispatched to the city of Ahwaz, in addition to additional forces from neighboring provinces. Iranian authorities banned many Western reporters from visiting the city. Exiled leader of an Iranian opposition group Maryam Rajavi hailed the people of Khuzestan, while calling on all Iranians to rise in support. In early April 2017, Ahwazi activist killed by Basij militia in Ma'shour city On 15 May 2017, suspected Arab separatist gunmen killed two police officers in Ahvaz. On October 2017, Ahmad Mullah Nissi, head of the Arab Struggle Movement for Khuzestan was assassinated in the Netherlands.

From 1904 to 1907, the Herero and the Namaqua took up arms against the Germans and in calculated punitive action by the German occupiers, the 'first genocide of the Twentieth Century' was committed. In the Herero and Namaqua genocide, 10,000 Nama (half the population) and approximately 65,000 Hereros (about 80% of the population) were systematically murdered. The survivors, when finally released from detention, were subjected to a policy of dispossession, deportation, forced labour, racial segregation and discrimination in a system that in many ways anticipated apartheid.

London (CNN) -- The first race in Melbourne is just around the corner and Formula 1 teams are gearing up for a season which promises to be as technical as it is tactical.

News article: Megabus driver acquitted in deadly N.Y. crash
SYRACUSE, N.Y. - A bus driver was acquitted Tuesday of homicide in the deaths of four passengers killed when his double-decker crashed into an overpass in upstate New York.
A judge announced the verdict after a non-jury trial for 60-year-old John Tomaszewski of Yardville, N.J. Tomaszewski would have faced up to four years in state prison on each of four counts of criminally negligent homicide. He sat with his head bowed and showed no reaction as Onondaga County Court Judge Anthony Aloi read the verdict.
"It was a tragic accident and four people lost their lives," a weary Tomaszewski said as he left court with his wife, Valerie. "It's something I'll have to deal with the rest of my life."
There were 29 passengers on the Megabus when the top of the bus hit the railroad bridge in Salina, just outside Syracuse, early on the morning of Sept. 11, 2010.
Tomaszewski was driving from Philadelphia to Toronto with a planned stop at the Regional Transportation Center in Syracuse when he missed an exit from Interstate 81 and ended up on the parkway instead.
Assistant District Attorney Chris Bednarski said during the trial that Tomaszewski was using a personal GPS device as he tried to find his way to the bus station and passed 13 low-bridge warning signs, some with flashing yellow lights, before the wreck.
"I'm disappointed for the families," Bednarski said after the ruling. "They were expecting closure. They're dealing as well as can be expected. It's something you probably never recover from."
Tomaszewski's lawyer, Eric Jeschke, argued that state and CSX railroad officials were responsible for failing to fix the danger presented by the bridge, the scene of numerous accidents for years. He also said Tomaszewski had limited experience and was on the parkway for the first time after being diverted from his route.
The crash killed Deanna Armstrong, 18, of New Jersey; Temple University student Kevin Coffey, 19, of Kansas; Benjamin Okorie, 35, a Malaysian preacher; and Ashwani Mehta, 34, an information technology specialist from India.
Jeschke rested the defense case without calling any witnesses. He said he was humbled by the verdict.
"It is tragic. I feel great for my client but still sad somebody passed away," Jeschke said. "Justice has been served, but it's humbling. He's relieved, but he's sad. He knows he's to blame."
Several civil lawsuits have been filed against the bus company, Tomaszewski and others. They were put on hold pending the outcome of the criminal case.
Tomaszewski, who was seriously injured in the accident, also was found not guilty of one count of failure to obey a traffic control device for driving past the warning signs.
According to a state report, 53 vehicles hit the bridge between 1987 and 2010 when drivers failed to notice they wouldn't make it under.
Aloi ordered the grand jury report about the circumstances of the accident to be unsealed so the public can view it.
"There should be a permanent solution lower the road, raise the bridge or remove it," he said. "Hopefully, a permanent solution to this problem will be found. That's not up to me."

Write an article that answers the following question: How many points were the Bengals in the lead after Palmer threw a touchdown pass to Coles? | Still looking to win the AFC North division after a disappointing Week 15 loss at San Diego, the Bengals went back home to Cincinnati to take on the Kansas City Chiefs.The first quarter was quiet, with neither team managing to get any points.Near the end of the first half, the Chiefs got a penalty for a bad snap before a punt. The ball went over the kicker's head, and resulted in a 1st and Goal for the Bengals. Carson Palmer then threw a touchdown pass to Chad Ochocinco, but the touchdown was reversed because he went out of bounds before he made the catch. The Bengals were then forced to settle for a 29-yard field goal by Shayne Graham, to make the score 3-0 Bengals. At the end of the first half, Ryan Succop kicked a 30-yard field goal for the chiefs, making the halftime score a tie, 3-3. The Bengals' offense did better at the beginning of the 3rd quarter, getting into the red zone in their first drive of the second half. Carson Palmer then threw a touchdown pass to Laveranues Coles, to put the Bengals on top, 10-3. Eight seconds into the 4th quarter, Tim Castille caught his first career touchdown, a 20-yard reception, to tie the score again, 10-10. The Bengals got yet another touchdown in the 4th quarter, and won the game 17-10.

Write a question about the following article: This was the last game the Giants would ever play at the moribund Giants Stadium, but they had no time to be nostalgic—defeating the same Week 16 opponent they faced last year would make their path to the postseason slightly easier. The Panthers, starting Matt Moore at quarterback in place of the injured Jake Delhomme, quickly took control of the game, scoring on their first four possessions (a 38-yard John Kasay field goal; a 29-yard Jonathan Stewart touchdown run; a 22-yard Muhsin Muhammad touchdown catch; and a 2-yard catch for tight end Jeff King). Meanwhile, the Giants turned the ball over 3 times in the first half, and were shut out at halftime for the second time this season. In the third quarter, Carolina picked up where they left off, as Moore connected with Carolina's Steve Smith for a 27-yard score. The Giants finally got on the board on the ensuing drive, courtesy of a 40-yard Tynes field goal. In the fourth quarter, the Giants' Smith caught a 2-yard touchdown pass from Manning, but a subsequent 2-point try failed. Carolina fullback Brad Hoover's 1-yard scoring run later in the fourth sealed the game for the Panthers. The Giants left Giants Stadium the same way they had opened it 33 years earlier; with a demoralizing loss. The loss, along with wins by the Cowboys and Packers this week, mathematically eliminated the Giants from the postseason, breaking their streak of 4 consecutive playoff appearances. Curiously, the last NFL game at Giants Stadium would not be a Giants game, but a Jets game; the Jets would play the Cincinnati Bengals at home on Sunday night in Week 17.

England's Charley Hull carded a six-under-par 66, the day's best round, to move within three shots of third-round leader Inbee Park at Royal Birkdale.
Article: | Media playback is not supported on this device
The 18-year-old began Saturday 11 shots off the lead at five over par, but hit nine birdies to end the day one under.
"I played aggressive and it worked for me today," Hull said.
South Korea's Park leads at five under, one shot ahead of Norway's Suzann Pettersen, China's Feng Shanshan and South Korean Ahn Sun-Ju.
Former world number one Park, who won three majors in a row in 2013, had finished one shot behind compatriot Ahn.
But Ahn's par on the final hole turned into a double bogey when she was penalised two shots for "building a stance" in a bunker on the 18th.
She said: "It's disappointing, but it's my mistake and I have to follow the rules of the game."
American overnight leader Mo Martin shot a five-over-par 77, including a double bogey on the 11th.
World number four Pettersen carded a 68 to climb into joint-second alongside Feng and Ahn.
Pettersen, 33, told BBC Two: "I'm really enjoying the course. I'm hitting the ball great and I'm confident with the putter."
But the big winner of the day was Hull, despite bogeying her opening two holes.
"I just hit fairways and hit greens and I just putted well," Hull told BBC Radio 5 live.
"The first two holes I started bogey, bogey, but I got it back from that. A great back nine and a birdie every par three made it even better."
Hull, the Ladies' European Tour's Rookie of the Year in 2013, is the best-placed home player, ahead of Dame Laura Davies, 50, who is tied in 28th at three over par. | 8 | Flan2021 | huggingface:xsum | zs_opt |

Read this article and answer this question Sir Ralph Moore and the Royal Niger Company had planned the attack on the Aros and the Ibini Ukpabi oracle since September 1899 but due to lack of necessary manpower, it was delayed until November 1901. On November 28, Lt. Col. Arthur Forbes Montanaro led 87 officers, 1,550 soldiers and 2,100 carriers in four axes of advance to Arochukwu from Oguta, Akwete, Unwana and Itu on a counter-insurgency campaign. As expected, Aro forces resisted all axes strongly, although they lacked modern weapons. However, Arochukwu was captured on December 28 after four days of fierce battles in and around the city. As a result, the Ibini Ukpabi shrine was allegedly blown up. Battles between British and Aro forces continued throughout the region until spring 1902 when Aro forces were defeated in the last major battle at Bende. The Aro Expedition ended three weeks later.

ATLANTA, Georgia (CNN) -- On a plot of soil, nestled against the backdrop of skyscrapers in downtown Atlanta, Georgia, a group of residents are turning a lack of access to fresh produce into a revival of old traditions and self-empowerment. Urban farming is a way for African-Americans to connect with the earth, says Cashawn Myers of HABESHA. HABESHA Gardens is one of many urban gardens sprouting up around the country. Fruits and vegetables are thriving in this community garden located in an economically depressed area of the city known as Mechanicsville. But the garden serves an even greater purpose. The harvest helps feed some of the neediest members of the neighborhood. "It's a reawakening going on. It's almost like it's a renaissance," says Cashawn Myers, director of HABESHA Inc. "There's a Ghanaian proverb that says Sankofa. Sankofa means return to your past so you can move forward. Even if you look at coming over here during our enslavement, we were brought here to cultivate the land because that's something we did on the continent. So really, that's what many of the people are doing now," he said. Myers believes urban farming is a way for many African-Americans to reconnect with their past. iReport.com: Show us your urban farm "They are going through a process of Sankofa and going to what they traditionally did, which is connect to the Earth so they can move forward and grow," he says. But HABESHA Gardens isn't unique. Former pro basketball player Will Allen, who is considered to be one of the nation's leading urban farmers and founder of Growing Power Inc., estimates that there are hundreds of thousands of urban gardens in inner cities across America. Urban farms help feed people, sustain neighorhoods » "It's beyond a movement at this point. Its more like a revolution," says Allen.

Hotel California My first thought: I was going crazy. Twenty-four hours of silence (vacuum, remember); was I hallucinating noises now? I heard it again. It was a fine bell, reminiscent of ancient stone churches and the towering cathedrals I'd seen in documentaries. And accompanying the bell, I saw a light. Now, there were two things here that made ridiculously small amounts of sense. First, the whole in-a-vacuum why's-there-a-bell thing. Second, I was floating in the dark remnants of my broken ship, and any conceivable light sources were not within view; starlight is a distinctly different color and significantly less bright. These signals were the heralds of my saviors. The first words they said to me meant nothing. I wasn't listening; I didn't care; I was going to live; I was going to keep breathing. Next to those, nothing else mattered. The recycled air tasted sweet in my mouth, and all thoughts that crossed my mind were cheap metaphors about life-giving substances and how breathing was like sex, only better. (I reserved the right to revise this opinion later.) When I was done mentally exclaiming over my impossible rescue, I looked around. The ship, it was odd and old, either so outdated or so heavily modified that I couldn't tell what make it was, and somehow, the crew standing around me fit the same description, a singularly atypical amalgamation of folk. And me, I guess I was one more piece in their puzzle. I was one more scrap to weld onto the rest, one more stranded survivor who was found. I was now one of them.

A Finnish couple has earned cash, beer and bragging rights after taking out the 14th annual North American Wife Carrying Championship at Maine's Sunday River ski resort. Five-time world champion Taisto Miettinen and Reetta Sairanen won Saturday's contest, completing the 278-yard obstacle course in just over 48 seconds. Scroll down for video. Tough: Five-time world wife carrying champion Taisto Miettinen hauls his partner, Reetta Sairanen, both of Finland, at the 14th annual North American Wife Carrying Championship. Tough: Five-time world wife carrying champion Taisto Miettinen carries Reetta Sairanen through a tough water obstacle during the event's final heat at Sunday River Ski Resort in Newry on Saturday. Powering over hurdles, ducking sand traps and pushing through a water hole alongside 50 other competitive couples, the dominant duo took home Sairanen's weight (89 pounds) in beer and five times her weight in cash ($445). Now they're set to compete in the World Wife Carrying Championship in Finland next year, according to Sun Journal. Miettinen has won the world championship five times, but with a different teammate. Asked the secret to wife carrying, Miettinen said, 'You must have power, you must be fast and you must have sustained strength...The woman’s weight, it is important.' South Paris' Jesse Wall and Christine Arsenault secured a place in the top three after setting the pace early in the race. Asked how they got into the sport, Wall said, 'I have a very little wife who said to me, ‘We’ve got to go try this, it will be a lot of fun.' Testing: Lee Jong Su, left, and Koo Ji Sung were one of several South Korean couples participating in Saturday's races. The teams were being filmed by a Korean crew for an upcoming television show. Marital bliss: Dave Castro carries his wife Lacey Castro of Alfred through the water obstacle. Despite the drenching, both were happy to participate in this year's event. The Castros were North American wife-carrying champions in 2009. The tough participants hailed from the U.S., Europe and South Korea. The Korean teams were being filmed for an upcoming television show. The most popular method of carrying the woman, reportedly used by all winners to date, is called the 'Estonian' method. Wrapping the women's legs around the man's head and hanging upside-down behind them, Estonian-style apparently, is considered more comfortable than the classic piggyback or 'fireman' (over the shoulder). Intense: Jesse Wall carries his partner, Christina Arsenault, over a hurdle on the roughly 300-yard obstacle course at the North American Wife Carrying Championships. Romantic: Brendan Sweeney, right, surprised girlfriend Haleigh Brown with a marriage proposal at the end of their heat.

Read this: The term "high fidelity" was coined in the 1920s by some manufacturers of radio receivers and phonographs to differentiate their better-sounding products claimed as providing "perfect" sound reproduction. The term began to be used by some audio engineers and consumers through the 1930s and 1940s. After 1949 a variety of improvements in recording and playback technologies, especially stereo recordings, which became widely available in 1958, gave a boost to the "hi-fi" classification of products, leading to sales of individual components for the home such as amplifiers, loudspeakers, phonographs, and tape players.

How to write dialogue
Pay attention to actual conversations.
Listen to the way people talk to one another and use those conversations and patterns in your dialogue to make it sound authentic. You'll notice that people talk differently when they're with different people, so make sure that you include that when you're writing dialogue.
Choose from:
[-] Try to build character by recording as many conversations as possible. Even if you're just writing a dialogue, try to link the dialogue to a set of conversations, even if it doesn't sound like you together.
[-] Think about who is a main character in the dialogue. Some dialogue can sound like you just made fun of a person (like your friend) and that the other person jokes back at you with enough emotion to be funny, too.
[-] Don't try to remember every single word the other person is saying, since you'll waste your writing and thus your dialogue. A funny response that shows that you're actually paying attention to what the other person is saying will work just as well.
[-] Disregard parts of the conversation that will not translate well when written down.

Summarize:
They say the fisheries deal between ministers and the European Parliament is good for fish and fishermen.
It is the latest step in marathon negotiations to reform the controversial Common Fisheries Policy.
Fishing groups are urging politicians to ensure that the reformed CFP rules allow them to stay in business.
The decision is a compromise between the European Parliament, which wants radical reform, and the Council, where member states led by Spain and France are trying to protect industrial fishing.
The final wording of the package has not yet been agreed and the full parliament plans to hold a vote on it in June or July.
Campaigners say the result is largely a victory for reform. It will allow nations to reallocate fish quotas from large operators to small, in a drive to reduce the damage caused by overfishing.
Simon Clydesdale from the environmental group Greenpeace said that “for decades in Europe fishing has been a story of decline, with severe over-exploitation of fish stocks and small-scale fishermen squeezed out of business by a minority of fishing barons.
“For all its loopholes and sluggish timelines the policy agreed last night has the potential to turn Europe’s destructive and oversized fishing industry into a sustainable, low-impact sector.”
Another key decision consolidated the broad principle that Europe’s fish quotas should be set at a level where stocks can actually recover, instead of just stabilising. This was said by the Council to be a breakthrough, although Tony Long of the campaign group WWF complained: “The majority of Europe’s governments decided to stonewall negotiations.”
The meeting confirmed a previous decision to phase out the policy of discarding fish – starting with mackerel and other pelagic species by 2015. Pelagic fish live in the upper layers of the oceans. All fish will be covered by the policy by 2020. Again, there is something of a loophole as a small percentage of fish discards will continue until then.
The next phase is for fisheries to start working on detailed multi-annual plans to ensure that stocks are managed prudently. These should take the place of the annual December Fisheries Council meetings that have led to ministers bidding against each other to raise the quota for domestic fleets.
The UK environment department Defra has welcomed a move to allow regional fisheries to escape micro-management from Brussels.
Fisheries Minister Richard Benyon said the UK "has pressed hard for many years to reform this broken policy so we can fish more sustainably, ban discards and end the one-size-fits-all approach to decision-making.
"It is great news that we are almost there. We hope that we can agree the final deal very soon," he said.
An industry body, the Scottish Fishermen’s Federation, is urging the rule-makers to take practical steps to help fishing fleets. Its chief executive Bertie Armstrong said: “Fishing provides a crucial renewable food resource, so it’s vital that measures to protect our fishermen are at the heart of the CFP.”
Meanwhile the British celebrity chef and Fish Fight campaigner, Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall, said the CFP reform "doesn't mean the Fish Fight is over, but this is a tremendous achievement which I really believe would not have happened without the help and support of all 860,000 of our Fish Fight supporters".
"The great news is that it will hugely reduce discards across Europe," he said.

Answer by taking a quote from the following article:
Fleet Foxes is an American indie folk band formed in Seattle, Washington. Their first two albums were released by the Sub Pop and Bella Union record labels, with their third by Nonesuch and Bella Union. The band came to prominence in 2008 with the release of their second EP, Sun Giant, and their self-titled debut album. Both received much critical praise and reviewers often noted the band's use of refined lyrics and vocal harmonies.
Pecknold said that he would have liked the album to be released in 2009; however, the band's touring schedule delayed rehearsals of the new songs until February 2009. These sessions took place in a rented house outside Seattle, but were mostly scrapped, losing the band $60,000 of their own money. Further delays ensued because the drummer, Tillman, was scheduled to play a solo tour in Europe and North America throughout the 2009-10 winter. Pecknold later sent some demos to producer Phil Ek and expressed the hope that the second LP would emerge in late 2010. In December 2009, Pecknold said he wanted the new LP to sound "less poppy, less upbeat and more groove-based". He referenced the 12-string guitar sound from Roy Harper's folk album Stormcock, saying, "That will be the primary sonic distancing from the last record." He wanted the band to record very quickly, with "vocal takes in one go, so even if there are fuck-ups, I want them to be on there. I want there to be guitar mistakes. I want there to be not totally flawless vocals. I want to record it and have that kind of cohesive sound. Van Morrison's Astral Weeks, to me, is the best-sounding album because it sounds like there were only six hours in the universe for that album to be recorded in. So I want it to have that feeling." The band eventually began recording in April 2010 in various locations (including West Hurley, New York) and decided to scrap the earlier idea of a fast recording (though according to the band many of the initial vocals were done in one take). The album features a new six-piece band line up, with the addition of the former Blood Brothers bassist Morgan Henderson on upright bass and woodwind instruments. The album, Helplessness Blues, was released on May 3, 2011 with a cover illustrated by the Seattle artist Toby Liebowitz and painted by Christopher Alderson. The title track was released via free download on January 31, 2011, and the album's fourth track, "Battery Kinzie", was premiered in the UK on Zane Lowe's radio show on March 22, 2011. The Sub Pop record label released a downloadable music video of the track "Grown Ocean", with footage of the album's recording, on its website in support of the album. A 12" vinyl double A-side single of "Helplessness Blues" and "Grown Ocean" was released for Record Store Day on April 16, 2011. On November 1, 2011, Pecknold's brother, Sean Pecknold, released the official music video for "The Shrine / An Argument". On January 18, 2012, after the band had finished touring for the album, drummer Tillman announced that he had left the band. He would go on to reinvent himself and record several albums as Father John Misty, notable for his ironic sense of humor in lyrics and media as well as often criticizing both the record industry and society in interviews and on stage. Helplessness Blues was nominated as Best Folk Album at the 2012 Grammy Awards, held February 12, 2012.

Sir Peter Blake also pitched up a stall to sell his bargain-priced art and meet his fans.
This year's theme was "Year of the Dog", with artists creating doggy-inspired pieces. Duo Keeler Tornero painted dog portraits on old vinyl records.
Pop artist Marty Thornton created "doggy bags" - re-appropriating fake Louis Vuitton branded material into original artwork.
Many artists brought their dogs along to the event, including Paige Perkins whose dog Ismael approved of her work.
Artists also created artwork during the sale, including urban artist Pure Evil who customised models of his signature Pure Evil Bunny.
Ray Richardson (below left) and Simon Stephenson (below right) also created dog-inspired pieces for Art On a Postcard, with proceeds going to The Hepatitis C Trust.

Article: The sun is usually denoted as a little circle with a dot in the middle. Look for the sun symbol on your chart, and then check to see which house and sign it appears in. You can use that information to learn more about what the sun represents - your ego and personality. On cafeastrology.com, you can see your sun sign in the tables under the section titled "Planet Positions, Ascendant, & Houses." The ascendant on your chart is marked by an “AC.” It represents which sign was rising over the eastern horizon at the exact time and place of your birth. In general, the sign in which your ascendant appears will dictate how you view the world and how the world views you. The slice of your chart where the ascendant appears is also called the first house. Look for a little number 1 down near the middle of the chart in the ascendant wedge. On cafeastrology.com, your ascendant sign is listed in the tables under the section titled "Planet Positions, Ascendant, & Houses." It will be marked as "Ascendant" in the first row of the table on the right under that section. On your chart, the moon symbol looks like a little crescent moon. As with the sun and ascendant symbols, look for the house and sign the moon appears in. Where your moon appears can tell you about your feelings, intuition, and unconscious. On cafeastrology.com, you can find the same moon symbol in the second row of the table on the left under the section titled "Planet Positions, Ascendant, & Houses." Each house represents and/or controls something about your life, from relationships to careers. Once you know what each house represents, you can begin to look at them for help in understanding different aspects of your life. On cafeastrology.com, the houses are marked by roman numerals in the column under "Ascendant" in the table on the right. The second house deals with security, money, and comfort. The third house deals with communication, thought, and neighbors and siblings. The fourth house deals with your early life and how it shaped you. The fifth house deals with fun, spontaneity, romance, and hobbies. The sixth house generally deals with your health, but can also tell you about your work environment. The eighth house is one of mystery. It deals with things like loss, intimacy, and transformation. The ninth house deals with higher powers. That might be higher education, philosophy, or religion. The tenth house deals with the future. What your goals are and what you want for the future. The eleventh house deals with collective consciousness, including your relationships with your friends and society in general. The twelfth and final house deals with the unconscious, subconscious, and spirituality. Around the outer ring of your chart, you’ll see little glyphs representing each of the major zodiac signs. Each sign will correspond to a single house. To find out which zodiac rules which house, find the glyph on the outer ring, then follow that wedge down to the center of the circle. There should be a number there, telling you which house you’re in. On cafeastrology.com, the column next to the roman numerals that represent the houses will show the signs in each house. The column to the right of the roman numeral will have the zodiac symbol. The column to the right of that will have the name of the zodiac. You can find keys for the zodiac glyphs pretty easily online. Just enter the phrase “zodiac astrology glyphs” into your favorite search engine. Aries tends to represent the fast-paced, exciting, childlike, and adventurous. Taurus deals with pleasure, beauty, and sensuality, but can also represent stubbornness and the self-indulgent and lazy. Gemini deals with wit and versatility. Cancer represents the clingy, moody, and empathetic. Leo represents enthusiasm, bravery, and loyalty. Virgo represents the critical, careful, and analytical. Libra is about diplomacy (as in being diplomatic) and fair but can also represent unreliability and impatience. Scorpio represents strength, jealousy, and control. Capricorn represents the hardworking, practical, and disciplined. Aquarius represents the socially conscious, friendly, and affectionate. Pisces represents the emotional, sensitive, and intuitive. The planets are represented in the houses of your chart with symbols. Like the zodiac glyphs, you’ll need to look up the symbols online, so that you know which planets are where on your chart. Enter “astrological chart planet glyphs” into your favorite search engine. On cafeastrology.com, the planets are listed in the first and second columns of the table on the left under the section titled "Planet Positions, Ascendant, & Houses." The first column shows the symbol for the planets. The second column tells you the name of the planets. The Sun represents you and your ego. The Moon represents your feelings and intuition. Mercury is about logical and communication. Venus is about love and romance, but also the feminine aspects of your personality. Mars is about your aggression, passion, and masculine side. Jupiter represents luck, confidence, and the big picture. Saturn represents responsibility, order, and restriction. Uranus represents higher thought, individuality, and higher powers. Neptune is about idealism, spirituality, and religion. Pluto is about money and sexuality. Once you have the basics of what the houses and symbols on your chart represent, you can begin to read your chart. Keep in mind as you do that there is a LOT going on in every person’s chart, and no single house or symbol represents all of you. For example, if your ascendant sign is Aries, your chart suggests you see the world as one big, open adventure. It also suggests that people see you as exciting and fun to be around. But you might also find that Uranus appears in your ninth house. The ninth house is all about intuition and higher powers, and having Uranus there only adds to this idea of you as an intuitive person, which can be a little at odds with being adventurous. On cafeastrology.com, you can find a long, detailed explanation of your chart under the section titled "Natal Chart Report" near the bottom of the page. If you’re feeling overwhelmed by your chart, you can hire an expert astrologer to help you. They have plenty of experience reading and interpreting charts for their clients. You can also look for books from reputable astrologers like Liz Greene and Robert Hand to help with your interpretations.

There is a large exiled Cuban-American population living in the United States, especially in and around Miami, FL and Union City, NJ. Those who oppose the communist government are represented in part by the Cuban-American lobby, which supports the U.S. embargo against Cuba and presses the communist government for political change. Other Cuban-American groups, some of which are anti-Communist, advocate different policies, opposing the embargo and favoring more cultural and economic engagement. Most prominent of these groups are the Brigada Antonio Maceo, Alianza Martiana, Miami Coalition Against the Embargo of Cuba, Alianza de Trabajadores de la Comunidad Cubana, Cuban American Defense League and Rescate Cultural AfroCubano. The Cuban government accuses Miami-based exiles of organizing over 700 armed incursions against Cuba over the past 40 years such as machine-gun attacks on the Guitart Cayo Coco Hotel by Alpha 66 in 1994 and 1995. The Cuban government has long contended that some South Florida Spanish-language journalists are paid by the U.S. government. On September 8, 2006, it was revealed that at least ten South Florida journalists, veteran reporters and a freelancer including some associated with the El Nuevo Herald, received payments totaling thousands of dollars over several years from the U.S. government for programs on Radio Martí and TV Martí, broadcasts aimed at undermining the Cuban state. In November 2006, U.S. Congressional auditors accused the development agency USAID of failing properly to administer its program to promote democracy in Cuba. They said that USAID had channeled tens of millions of dollars through exile groups in Miami, which were sometimes wasteful or kept questionable accounts. The report said the organizations had sent items such as chocolate and cashmere jerseys to Cuba. Their report concluded that 30% of the exile groups who received USAID grants showed questionable expenditures.

Jefferson and James Madison's conceptions of separation have long been debated. Jefferson refused to issue Proclamations of Thanksgiving sent to him by Congress during his presidency, though he did issue a Thanksgiving and Prayer proclamation as Governor of Virginia. Madison issued four religious proclamations while President, but vetoed two bills on the grounds they violated the first amendment. On the other hand, both Jefferson and Madison attended religious services at the Capitol. Years before the ratification of the Constitution, Madison contended ``Because if Religion be exempt from the authority of the Society at large, still less can it be subject to that of the Legislative Body.'' After retiring from the presidency, Madison wrote of ``total separation of the church from the state.'' `` ``Strongly guarded as is the separation between Religion & Govt in the Constitution of the United States,'' Madison wrote, and he declared, ``practical distinction between Religion and Civil Government is essential to the purity of both, and as guaranteed by the Constitution of the United States.'' In a letter to Edward Livingston Madison further expanded, ``We are teaching the world the great truth that Govts. do better without Kings & Nobles than with them. The merit will be doubled by the other lesson that Religion flourishes in greater purity, without than with the aid of Govt.'' Madison's original draft of the Bill of Rights had included provisions binding the States, as well as the Federal Government, from an establishment of religion, but the House did not pass them.

NEW: Navy secretary says ruling allows sailors to train under "realistic" conditions. By 5-4 vote, Supreme Court allows Navy exercises in whale habitat. Sound waves can permanently harm sea mammals, environmentalists argue. Fleet's safety and need to train trump concern for whales, chief justice writes.
Article: | The Supreme Court on Wednesday lifted sanctions placed on the Navy over its underwater sonar testing, a setback for environmental groups that claimed the warfare technology was harming whales and other marine mammals. An endangered blue whale surfaces off the coast of Southern California in July. At issue in the 5-4 ruling was whether the Navy's need to conduct exercises to protect the country from enemy submarines outweighed concerns raised by environmental groups. The case focused on whether the president had the power to issue executive waivers allowing such tests and whether federal judges can issue preliminary injunctions blocking them. The high court ultimately sided with claims of national security over environmental concerns. Those environmental interests, said Chief Justice John Roberts for the majority, "are plainly outweighed by the Navy's need to conduct realistic training exercises to ensure that it is able to neutralize the threat posed by enemy submarines." Roberts said a lower federal court "abused its discretion" by imposing a 2,200-yard perimeter for testing and ordering a shutdown of sonar use during surfacing exercises. But in dissent, Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg warned that the ecological damage was significant. "This likely harm cannot be lightly dismissed," she said, "even in the face of an alleged risk to the effectiveness of the Navy's 14 training exercises." Justices David Souter, Stephen Breyer and John Paul Stevens also questioned the Navy's arguments. The exercises have continued while the case was under appeal. Environmentalists had sued the Pentagon over the practice, and a federal judge ordered major changes to the Navy's annual offshore training exercises in March. President Bush had issued an emergency waiver to allow the exercises to go on without the filing of an environmental impact study, but the lower court ruling blocked the use of sonar. That federal judge, in ruling against the government last March, said it was "constitutionally suspect" for Bush to issue the national security exemption to allow skipping the impact study. Military officials argued that the restrictions could hamper readiness in time of war, because new sonar technology is needed to detect increasingly sophisticated enemy submarines. "This case was vital to our Navy and nation's security, and we are pleased with the Supreme Court's decision in this matter," Navy Secretary Donald Winter said. "We can now continue to train our sailors effectively, under realistic combat conditions." One of the environmental organizations that sued the Defense Department told the justices that the exercises had been planned in advance and that the Navy was required under law to conduct more extensive environmental tests than it had. The waters of southern California are home to dozens of species of whales, dolphins, seals and sea lions, nine of them federally listed as endangered or threatened. Federal courts have cited scientific studies and the Navy's own conclusions that high levels of sonar can cause hearing loss and disorientation in the animals. In February, the U.S. Navy demonstrated for CNN its onboard procedures for turning down mid-frequency sonar when whales come within 1,000 meters and shutting it off completely when they approach 200 meters. The sonar sounds like a "ping, ping" noise, and it can be reduced as necessary, officers said. But environmentalists say that the sonar can hurt whales much farther than 1,000 meters away and that the noise created by the sonar "was like having a jet engine in the Supreme Court multiplied 2,000 times, compensating for water," attorney Richard Kendall told the justices. Reacting to the ruling, Kendall said, "It is gratifying that the court did not accept the Navy's expansive claims of executive power and that two-thirds of the injunction remain in place." In 2000, 16 whales beached themselves in the Bahamas, and the Navy concluded that too many sonar ships had been operating in a narrow underwater channel. The service says it is funding $16 million in independent research to minimize sonar's effect on marine mammals. | 8 | Flan2021 | cnn_dailymail:3.4.0 | zs_opt |

This film was choppy, incoherent and contrived. It was also an extremely mean-spirited portrayal of women. I rented it because it was listed as a comedy (that's a stretch), and because the cover said Andie McDowell was acting up a storm in it. She wasn't. I'm a gal, I watched this film with two guys, and we spent an hour afterwards exclaiming over how bad it was.
WARNING: PLOT SUMMARY BELOW! RAMPANT SPOILERS!
The movie starts out with a fairly hackneyed plot about an older woman who takes up with a younger man, to the severe disapproval of her two jealous single girlfriends. They want her to marry a boring guy their own age who is kind of in love with her. But she's so happy with her oversexed puppy that you're rooting for them to stick it out, and sure enough, she decides to marry the guy. But her harpy girlfriend, aided by the wishy-washy one, sets up a plot to trick our heroine into thinking the guy is cheating on her. It works. She has a fight with him, he runs out of the house and is crushed by a truck (Remember the movie's title?) So now he's dead, two-thirds of the way through the film. And although our heroine is a school headmistress who spends her time watching over girls, she apparently forgot to use birth control and is pregnant.
She's already broken off relations with her girlfriends, because they were so unsupportive. Alone and pitiful, she decides to marry the boring guy. Did I mention that the boring guy who kind of loves her is a minister? She had asked him to marry her to the young guy (nice, huh?), but now she tells him she'll marry him, and apparently he has no objections to being dicked around in this fashion. But her girlfriends rescue her at the altar and take her home, where they not-quite-confess that they were mostly responsible for the love of her life getting smushed. She has the kid. In the final scene, they leave it in a crib inside her house while they go out on the porch to drink, smoke and be smug. I kid you not, it's that bad. I left out the part about the cancer red-herring and the harpy's ridiculous lesbian moment.
