U.N. Tribunal Wrong to Free Top Suspect, Rwanda Says
By CHRISTOPHER S. WREN
Published: November 12, 1999
UNITED NATIONS, Nov. 11— The decision of a United Nations tribunal to drop its case against a former official in Rwanda accused of helping to organize the 1994 genocide there has angered the Rwandan government and threatens to unravel efforts to bring the most prominent suspects to justice.
''The government of Rwanda condemns this decision in the strongest possible terms,'' Joseph W. Mutaboba, the Rwandan representative to the United Nations, said today at a news conference, where he described the former foreign ministry official, Jean-Bosco Barayagwiza, as the ''No. 1'' criminal wanted for fomenting genocide.
Mr. Mutaboba described the court, the International Criminal Tribunal for Rwanda, as negligent in its duties. Until the tribunal apologizes for dismissing the case last week and reverses its decision, he said, Rwanda is suspending cooperation on other cases, a move that could bring new prosecutions to a halt.
Mr. Barayagwiza, 49, led the Coalition for the Defense of the Republic, a Hutu political party that espoused hatred of the country's Tutsi minority. He also helped start Radio Television Libres des Milles Collines, a radio station that incited the country's Hutu majority to kill Tutsi.
At least a half-million Rwandans, mostly Tutsi, were slaughtered by Hutu militia groups and mobs in 1994, according to most estimates.
On Nov. 3 the tribunal's appeals court ordered Mr. Barayagwiza's release, saying his fundamental rights had been violated by prolonged detention without trial.
The appeals court said the tribunal prosecutor had failed to inform Mr. Barayagwiza of the charges against him and had not transferred him promptly enough from prison in Cameroon, where he was arrested on March 27, 1996, and detained 19 months before being delivered to the tribunal, in Arusha, Tanzania.
Mr. Barayagwiza was accused of genocide, incitement of genocide and crimes against humanity. Mr. Mutaboba described him as ''one of the architects'' of the bloody campaign to exterminate Rwanda's Tutsi.
''The hardship he allegedly suffered in Cameroon jails is negligible compared to the suffering his victims endured,'' Mr. Mutaboba said.
He took pains to deny a permanent rupture with the tribunal. ''We have not burned any bridges between us and the United Nations at all.''
But he said the dismissal of the case created ''a terrible precedent'' that other accused Rwandans could use to have their cases dismissed.
The prosecutor, who at the time was Louise Arbour of Canada, is responsible for compiling cases against suspects in Rwanda and in the former Yugoslav republics. Mrs. Arbour quit on Sept. 15 to take a seat on Canada's Supreme Court.
Carla Del Ponte, a Swiss jurist who succeeded Mrs. Arbour, has said she takes the criticism seriously and will visit Rwanda later this month. But Mr. Mutaboba said it would be pointless for her to go to Rwanda before his government receives a written explanation and apology from the tribunal.
The appeals court ordered that Mr. Barayagwiza be returned to Cameroon. Mr. Barayagwiza, who remains in custody in Tanzania, has asked to choose his destination, saying he has no legal status, resources or family in Cameroon. Cameroon turned down an earlier request to extradite him to Rwanda.
Mr. Mutaboba called on the tribunal to give its file on Mr. Barayagwiza to the Rwandan government, which would try his case. ''If this tribunal doesn't have the courage to do it,'' he said, ''we shall do it.''
In Rwanda, an estimated 125,000 detainees have been awaiting trial for their possible roles in the genocide, some for five years.

This was a fairly new hotel when we stayed there in 2011. I had wanted to try it ever since I saw it being built, when I traveled to Pittsburgh for business. Never got the chance until my wife and I stopped there during a trip. I was not disappointed; excellent location and quality room and service. Great location to access the attractions that Southside has to offer. I think this is one of the best plces to stay in the Pittsburgh area. Close to the center of town - right across the Hot Metal Bridge gets you there; however, not in he midst of downtown congestion as much. Tour the local area of Southside as well; very interesting local places!

Pine and cedar type bedding will cause horrible reaction in hamsters or small rodents that may be lethal. I recommend aspen or paper bedding that do not contain oils or fine particles.
First of all: I really liked using this product in my bunnies' litter boxes until I found out it's toxic for rabbits. Other than this, It's a good value.
Some state Wildlife Departments recommend this particular product for replacing shavings in Wood Duck boxes each January, before the nesting season begins. It is a good product because these shavings are large and better for the ducklings because it does not have fine particles like saw dust that can irritate and cause eye problems.
That's a good sized package.

WASHINGTON — Sen. John McCain's office denied Thursday that he used the formatting on a letter from the White House as an excuse to delay a vote on Chuck Hagel's nomination for secretary of defense.
"That's absolutely false," McCain's spokesperson Brian Rogers said of the charge, which Democrats had been quietly making on Capitol Hill Thursday.
McCain and Sens. Lindsay Graham and Kelly Ayotte wrote a letter to the White House on Tuesday demanding further information about the September attack on the American consulate in Benghazi, and warned that they would hold a vote on Hagel's nomination pending a response. The White House responded Wednesday — but addressed the letter to Sen. Carl Levin, chair of the Armed Services Committee, and merely CC'ed McCain, Graham and Ayotte.
The White House resent the letter — nearly identical to the first, but for the inverted subject and CC lines — Thursday.
A Senate Democratic aide provided copies of the letters to BuzzFeed. "That is the level of unseriousness we are dealing with here," the aide said.
On the Senate floor earlier Thursday, Reid hinted at the drama.
"Several of my Republican colleagues sent a letter to the administration yesterday requesting additional information on the Sept. 11 attack on an American facility in Benghazi," Reid said. "These Republican colleagues said they would not allow a vote on Sen. Hagel's nomination to proceed unless the administration honored their request. The administration responded to that letter yesterday. I, along with several of my colleagues on both sides of the aisle, received a copy of the letter at 4 p.m. But now Republicans say this is not enough and are moving the goal posts at the last minute. This is no way to operate."
Meanwhile, McCain insisted he had been kept out of the loop.
"I have not received the letter," McCain told CNN Thursday morning. "They sent the letter to Sen. Levin. It was Sen Graham and I and Ayotte that asked for an answer. We haven't received an answer."
In the interview, he said the letter's delay was a chief reason he was holding up a vote on Hagel's nomination.
"I have to receive a letter, I have to receive a letter, see whether I receive a letter or not, and there are other questions that other senators have raised which are not answered as well," McCain told CNN.
Ultimately, Senate Democrats did not round up enough votes Thursday to break a filibuster on Hagel's nomination. A vote will occur after the Senate returns from its recess, when he is expected to be confirmed.
Relevant excerpts from both letters below:
- Luke Aikins just became the first skydiver to successfully jump out of a plane without a parachute 🌎💪
- Bernie Sanders' former press secretary says she experienced repeated incidents of blatant racism while on the campaign trail.
- Sixteen people died after a hot air balloon caught fire and crashed in Texas Saturday.

Sarah North was born June 17th, 1827, departed this life, September 3rd, 1889, aged 62 years, 2 months, 16 days. She spent her girlhood in Fairfield county, Ohio, came to Indiana in 1848 and was married to John Pingry the following year.
They have walked side by side in marriage for thirty-nine years and four months, sharing in the hardships incident to pioneer life in the dense forests of Indiana. There were seven children born to them, to whom the mother's life was thoroughly devoted and consecrated. Whatever may have been lacking in their devotion and fidelity - hers never failed. We may have betrayed her in the reciprocation of our love, but she always loved. Truly, we had a great and good mother; not great in what the world sometimes calls greatness; not great in literary attainments, but great in heart and service. Her simple goodness of heart closed the mouths of critics, even the most fastidious, and made her most attractive and beautiful. Her life and character were a beautiful illustration of sacrificing for others. No work so arduous nor task so great that she was unwilling to perform. It seemed to be her constant study how best to contribute to the welfare of those about her. Her happiness consisted in making others happy. Mother's life was laid upon the alter of service. She died a martyr for her children and friends. Her health was been failing gradually for two years past. About one year ago the disease that finally resulted in her death made its appearance. Her sufferings have been great and yet she has borne them without a murmur. A few days before she died she called the children to her bedside and exhorted them to be good and meet her in heaven. May the good Lord so direct it. It was the privilege of the writer to be present with the deceased in her closing hours. A more beautiful death was never recorded than hers. The wick burned gradually down to the socket and being consumed, was extinguished without an effort. Just a 9 a.m. the messenger came, that no human power can turn away. But it found her ready. She answered gladly to the call.
And now we lay her away to rest. Well hast thou earned it. 'Tis hard to give thee up. Yet for they sake and for the love we bear toward thee, we will emulate thy spirit, sweet mother and not murmur, for our loss is thy eternal gain. Let the birds sing their beautiful songs and the snows of winter spread their coverings of spotless purity around thy lowly bed. Other feet may come and go and press the walks of thy familiar paths, but we will not forget thee. Good bye till we meet again.'

Anti-Resonant Compensation of Tweeter Frequency Response Peaks
A general method is presented for smoothing high frequency response peaks present in many commercially available tweeters. Typical response peaks well above the mechanical resonance frequency of the driver are caused by a combination of diffraction, diaphragm geometry and breakup, and a secondary mechanical resonance. The resulting peak in the far field pressure response is compensated with an appropriate antiresonant network across the driver terminals. Results of an actual application are presented where a +5dB peak at 13kHz is reduced +1dB with the antiresonant compensator.

This is a refurbished hotel so you know when you say refurbished it's not anything to write home about. The room was more than adequate but the air conditioner had a high pitched whistle as well as ear deafening roar, I thought I would go mad. Luckily I had my ear plugs with me. I've read that in other travelers reviews, so I always take them. The elevator was so old and smelly like oil or something that we took the stairs when we could. It's only a 3 story hotel so it's not bad. The pool was beautiful looking and there was a life guard to match LOL but she said it was cold, very cold. It was deep so I guess it doesn't warm up much. The breakfast had the hot eggs and sausage component so one didn't have to make waffles every day. We walked to McDonalds for supper and there were other low end restaurants around. The best part and this is why we went there, is that there is a free shuttle to the Metro. They were just excellent and when we couldn't get in with the space, they returned promptly to pick us up. In the morning they make several trips. The Metro goes to all the monuments and Arlington Cemetery so be sure to get a day pass. It is tricky to buy but once you have it, it's a breeze. Although I must say it was stalled for over an hour once but with the air conditioning we weren't upset. Although there were problems we would go back as we have more Smithsonian's to do and this is the best way to travel shuttle and metro.

Two Memphis area engineers have been elected to help lead the American Council of Engineering Companies of Tennessee.
Logan Meeks, PE, with A2H Inc., will serve as first vice president of the statewide council. Tim Verner, PE, with Fisher & Arnold Inc., has been elected second vice president.
More than 150 years ago, we fought our nation's most bloody war, a conflagration that claimed 620,000 lives, almost as many as were killed in all other American war efforts combined.
Despite the horror of it all, we just can't seem to learn a lesson, possibly because of Southern hardheadedness, and a century and a half later, we seem doomed to an eternal task: pushing Sisyphus' rock to the top of a hill only to have it chase us back to the bottom.
MEMPHIS, Tenn. (AP) – Trumpet player Wayne Jackson, who played standout horn lines on rock 'n' roll, soul, R&B and pop mainstays along with Memphis Horns partner and tenor saxophonist Andrew Love, has died. He was 74.
Peyton Manning and his old college football nemesis, Steve Spurrier, could enter the Hall of Fame at the same time.
Manning, who lost to Spurrier's Florida teams three times as starting quarterback for Tennessee, along with the retired Head Ball Coach are both making their first appearance on the College Football Hall of Fame ballot.
The hottest seat in a room of hot seats in city government can be being director of the Memphis Animal Shelter.
You wouldn't think that from the job description, which seems pretty basic. Round up stray animals and put them up for adoption. But that's being overly simplistic because it begs a lot of questions about how many animals and what happens if you run out of space.
Boys & Girls Clubs of Greater Memphis will host the 45th annual Steak n' Burger Dinner, featuring a keynote by Anfernee "Penny" Hardaway, on Tuesday, May 3, at 6 p.m. at Minglewood Hall, 1555 Madison Ave. Kids can enjoy a pre-event games area before sitting down to enjoy a meal where adults eat burgers and kids eat steak. Tickets are $200; proceeds benefit Boys & Girls Clubs. Visit bgcm.org for details.
The Tennessee Legislature hoped to end its 2016 session Wednesday at the end of an eventful day that included a failed attempt to override Gov. Bill Haslam's veto of the bill that would have made the Bible the official state book.But into Wednesday evening, the state House was still debating the Hall tax on dividends – specifically further roll backs of it. And the Senate had gone home for the night.So Thursday looks like a good bet for the adjournment for the year and the formal start of the election season for incumbents.
No one from the Memphis Zoo or City Hall showed up for the Greensward box luncheon Saturday, April 9, despite the invitations sent out by Citizens to Preserve Overton Park.
CPOP leaders nevertheless gathered on the other side of the metal parking barrier in place on the Greensward for the second weekend. They dutifully stacked the box lunches and set a vase of flowers on another table near plastic cups and a glass pitcher of water.
Josh Pastner is officially the new head coach at Georgia Tech and the University of Memphis is officially in the coach search business.
Just when it appears the Tennessee Senate is made up of sensible people – as evidenced by the killing of de-annexation legislation – the body is changing course with a Bible-thumping measure.
And in less than a half hour Wednesday, the de-annexation drama that should qualify as the political equivalent of a Netflix binge-watchable television series made just for Memphis was done.
Memphis Mayor Jim Strickland makes a persuasive argument against de-annexation legislation now being considered by the state Legislature, providing a long list of figures to show it would devastate the Bluff City.
Lots of Memphians spending the week in Nashville in the name of bringing down the de-annexation proposal that's already cleared the state House and is residing for now in a state Senate committee.
How was your weekend, Memphis? Here's our weekly roundup of local happenings you need to know about, from the first Great River Indoor Food Truck Festival to a celebration of late Memphis wrestler Sputnik Monroe.
Senate Majority Leader Mark Norris refers to himself as a "meat and potatoes" legislator. The four-term Republican senator from Collierville, a self-described policy wonk, is considering a run for governor in 2018. But if the race boils down to charisma, he says the media will have to determine if he has enough to win the top office.
Memphis Mayor Jim Strickland is heading to Nashville Wednesday, March 16, to talk with legislators about what he considers City Hall's highest priority in the 2016 session of the Tennessee Legislature – defeating a deannexation proposal.

I think I may have stumbled upon a way to increase voter turnout in Memphis.I would say nationally, but we all know what works in Memphis does not always work elsewhere and what works elsewhere does not always work in Memphis.It came to me as I was at Overton Park ever so briefly Saturday. It's part of my weekend run whenever the weather is spring-like or actually spring to see what will happen in the nearly three-year Greensward controversy.Lots of people having fun and a few kite-flyers coexisting on the greensward with zoo overflow parking but no protest with brass band.As I filed that away I wondered what happened to that park institution -- the drum circle.Audubon Park had one too along with the Society for Creative Ananchronism – the folks who dress up like Game of Thrones only they were doing it before the television show.Anyway, I started hearing the drums in my head as I imagined drum circles outside the early voting places because that's how my mind works in a career spent covering politicians since before I was old enough to vote.Of course the drums would be outside the 100-foot limits for physical campaigning that state law requires.But imagine you are in the area of let's say Agricenter, maybe in Shelby Farms Park, and in the distance you hear drums. Wouldn't you be curious? If you had the time would you try to find the source? And if you discovered it was outside an early voting place and you were of voting age and registered and if you had not already voted (for you may vote early but not often) would you not vote, once your curiosity had been satisfied?I thought your answer to all of the above would be a resounding yes.

History can be like geology once you get it in something that isn't in the form of a book.There are layers on top of layers that you may not ever see or miss until a site is wiped clean for the next present that used to be the future and will eventually become the past.That's the case with the city's historic Medical Center where much has come and gone several times over as our city's considerable investment in medicine and health approaches the end of its second century.Health Sciences Park used to be the site of a hospital. You would think something as massive as the tower of Baptist Memorial Hospital's central campus on Union Avenue would be missed. Yet even those of us who grew up with its presence drive past it every day without a thought of what was once there.The same with the site of Russwood Park on the north side of Madison Avenue and the old bus barns where Beale used to run further east than it does now.In recent years, new facilities have arisen as the medical center makes itself over in a kind of economic regeneration without a comprehensive plan.There is now an effort to come up with a comprehensive plan for the area that is more than different ventures buying or leasing land and making plans for their needs.Eight of the institutions in the area have hired a consulting firm to develop a master plan that includes not just facilities but residential and retail areas.It's a significant step for an area that remains intriguing for those of us trying to remember what was where and how long some of the survivors have been holding out in much different streetscapes than were there when they arrived.The Masonic lodge at the dead end of Dunlap into Union Avenue is a survivor. It's where the funerals were held for some of those killed in the 1925 river disaster in which Tom Lee rescued so many others.The lodge at one time had an earth-shaking pipe organ that I had the rare privilege of hearing at a concert following its restoration in the 1980s – the ancient 1980s.And I still wonder about the tiny medical textbook storefront and how it endures at a time when students rent books and others use digital versions.There are still remnants of the porous border between the medical center and the Union Avenue auto row that used to exist and arose around the old Ford plant.
The fishing puns are overpowering as Bass Pro Shops expresses its interest in redeveloping Mud Island River Park, on the other side of the city harbor from the Pyramid Bass Pro Shops opened at just this past May.Bass Pro Shops is one of five companies to express interest in Mud Island as part of the process by the Riverfront Development Corporation to go a different way with the park.The RDC released the names of the companies Thursday.Earlier this month, we outlined the RVC Outdoor Destinations proposal.We don't know nearly as much about what Bass Pro Shops has in mind or the other three firms.All five now head for what amounts to a second round in which they submit specific plans to a search committee of the RDC including how they will pay for their plans.

It's hard to imagine that a 65,000-seat stadium could be overlooked.

Three decades is a long enough time on Beale Street for any institution to create its own remarkable life.

by Dave in Denver:
"I've been arguing for quite some time that the real reason we will see more QE, despite the rhetoric coming from the Fed, for the simple reason that it is the only way for the Treasury to keep funding its rabid debt issuance at the current low rates. As has been widely documented, in 2011 the Fed bought 60% of all new Treasury issuance. As noted by zerohedge, yesterday and today the Fed directly monetized this week's 10-yr and 30-yr Treasury auctions by purchasing an amount equal to 20% of the 10-yr paper sold and 15.4% of the today's 30-yr auctions: 10-yr POMO; 30-yr POMO.
"Just to clarify, the POMO operation by the Fed is a "reverse" auction, in which the Fed solicits Treasury bond offerings from the Wall Street banks. This is paper that comes from each bank's inventory (balance sheet) and purchased by the Fed. ..." click through for the rest.

Pelini likes effort as Neb opens spring practice
LINCOLN, Neb. -- The fans might be more worried than Bo Pelini about the holes Nebraska has to fill on defense this spring.
The Cornhuskers must replace eight starters from a defense that ranked in the bottom half of the Big Ten in every major category except pass defense. Pelini said after the first spring practice Saturday that he's not overly concerned about what on paper appears to be a lack of experience.
"I have been in this situation before," Pelini said. "Our guys have a base, they were in meetings all last year and they went through a fall camp. So it is not like they are starting from day one."
Nebraska practiced in shorts and helmets for two hours, splitting time between the indoor Hawks Championship Center and the outside practice field.
Pelini said it was a good first day and that he liked the attitude the team brought out of a challenging winter strength and conditioning program.
"I just told the team I thought we did a lot of good things and we have a lot of things to learn from," Pelini said. "I thought the attitude was good, the tempo was good, a lot of things to coach and get better from."
The Huskers return 17 of their top 22 players on offense, including quarterback Taylor Martinez, running back Ameer Abdullah and four of five starting offensive linemen.
Martinez and Abdullah probably will see limited live action this spring, Pelini said.
Pelini said he wants to get more work for rising sophomore running back Imani Cross, who was used mostly in short-yardage situations last season. Cross ran 55 times for 324 yards and seven touchdowns.
"He played around 230 (pounds) last year and I think he is weighing around 220 now," Pelini said. "I want to evaluate how he is going to feel playing at the weight. He's a big guy without a lot of body fat."
The Huskers will practice four times next week. The annual Red-White scrimmage is April 6.

The Assist the story of Charleston High School coach Jack O'Brien and his quest to save kids from street life through basketball. Charleston resides in Boston, a school filled primarily with ghetto kids struggling with the typical problems you'd expect, violence, drugs, street life, etc.. The first half of the book is magnificent as it details Charleston's run for their 5th title in six years. You get a great feeling for the players on the team, their attitudes and find yourself rooting for them to win and make it out of life.
O'Brien's the larger than life coach who intercedes in these kids lives at every level. Driving them to college campuses forcing them to do their schoolwork, forcing them to stay polite, and doing everything his power to keep them off the streets even during summer school.
I wouldn't question his dedication to his kids.
I have mixed feelings about the second half of the book. It follows several more seasons of Charleston basketball where O'Brien eventually quits, only to change his mind, then quit again, then change his mind again all over the course of one summer. The O'Brien storyline is left hanging at an awkward sport where you don't really know what's going to happen with him.
The plus side is that you get to see, to some extent what happens to some of the Charleston boys after they graduate with one of the the two lead characters going on to success and one heading towards failure. The following up on the kids was great to read, as I missed not having such a follow up on similar books.
Still, the end of the 5th championship makes for a great stopping point in a book with an epilogue to come afterwards rather than half another book without a cohesive storyline or end point.
The author also seems a bit too close to O'Brien for me. There are many sections written about how unfair the school board is with various rules. How trying to get the kids to learn math and english isn't preparing them for college while having them take soft electives to inflate their grades would give them more opportunities.
I'm not sure how O'Brien juxtaposes his opinion that he really cares about the kids education, but feels that education is best enhanced by getting As in filler work rather than taking real high school level class work. The implication is that the kids simply can't do math or english and don't enjoy it. That may be a failure of the schools feeding into the high schools, but I don't think that problem is resolved by avoiding it until they get to college and hoping they figure it out there.
There's also several chapters written about the great injustice of Hugh, an assistant coach, not being able to get a full time job at the school despite being a strong black father figure who graduated college after attending Charleston. The idea is that Hugh is such a positive example for these kids that he deserves the job. I have no problem with this except that Hugh can't pass the teacher certification test which is the only hold up on his job being guaranteed.
The school got special waivers for him many times over to teach without the certification though and implies the teachers certification test is culturally biased. I've never seen the test. I have no idea. However, I'm kind of insulted by the idea that the school administration is hung out to dry over not hiring a teacher who can't pass the mandatory certification test.
The book is a tale of two stories. One great, one flawed. The great story is the one about Charleston basketball. The flawed one are the misguided solutions to the education problems in an area overwhelmed with poverty.
It's a good book, but it has little balance to it and reads as intellectually dishonest in it's views of the school system to me.
Final Rating: 6/10

I challenge you, Mr. Trump, that if the U.S. were a corporation that you owned, before you would spend your own money on building the wall, tripling the number of ICE officers, expanding e-verify and expelling 11 million residents (a risky task) -- you would leave no stone unturned in a search for a policy solution that would achieve the same goal without all the expense and hassle.
Now that was a debate. Back in 2012 it was the live audience that got rowdy at the presidential primary debates. This time it was the folks onstage, candidates and moderators alike. And somehow it all stemmed from the presence of Donald Trump, the spiritual epicenter of this event, whose outsize persona dominated the proceedings from beginning to end. Things got off to a rollicking start with Trump's show-of-hands refusal to rule out a third-party run and Rand Paul's aggressive reaction. This riveting kickoff set a pugilistic tone for the debate that never subsided.
The biggest question on everyone's mind throughout the night will undoubtedly be how the ever controversial Donald Trump's presence will affect the debate. All eyes will be on the billionaire, real estate mogul as his actual knowledge of public policy on both domestic and foreign affairs is put to the test.
In normal years, this would be the official kickoff to the political Silly Season. This year, however, is not normal, as instead we're right at the kickoff of Presidential Debate Season, and the votes are already in -- the silly subject we're all going to obsess over this year is named Donald Trump.

Asian actress/supermodel fans may want to keep their eyes peeled for hot newcomer Jaymee Ong. Half Chinese and half Australian, Jaymee's hot sexy looks accompanied by her lovely Aussie accent'll have you exclaiming,"Tia Carrere, Michelle Yeoh, Sung Hi Lee, Who are They! " in a heartbeat. HK Comedy fans'll dig that Chinese Joe Pesci guy who serves as th' group's mentor. Th' young stars of th' film are fantastic; many of whom are featured in current HK hits like "The Purple Storm", "A Man Called Hero" (also listed on amazon.com), and "2000 AD."

Gen-X Cops is different. Police Academy this is not. You get three talented young no-named actors who really kick ass in this film. Notably Nicholas Tse who plays the character of Jack. In the featurette included in the DVD, Jackie Chan even gives respect to the man because he also does his own stunts. There is one scene where he comes out of a swimming pool with gasoline on top of the pool on fire and he emerges out of the pool. These are just a few scenes that you see Nicholas Tse do. Pretty boy? This guy is not afraid to take on risks and this person is definitely a rising star to keep your eye on.
One of the things that makes this movie rock is the dedication of the director Benny Chan (Big Bullet, Who am I?). Although he admits that it was difficult to film the movie because the three gen-x actors loved to play around the set and are loud, he knew that was the chemistry that made these guys click and the way the movie turned out, he definitely clicked with them.
Sam Lee who plays the character of Alien is so weird and very funny, you can't help but like his character. Then there is the "playboy" Stephen Fung who plays the character of Match. According to Tse, a person playing himself...a playboy. These guys get along so well and are a perfect click which makes this movie even more enjoyable. One scene has the three friends outrunning blasts in a building. A scene that they can only shoot once with no mistakes.Read more ›
[Te Jing Xin Ren Lei]
(Hong Kong - 1999)
Aspect ratio: 2.39:1 (Anamorphic)
Theatrical soundtrack: Dolby Digital
Jackie Chan co-produced this routine blockbuster as a showcase for some of Hong Kong's hottest new teen stars, including Nicholas Tse Ting-fung, Stephen Fung Tak-lun, Daniel Wu Yin-cho and comic relief Sam Lee Chan-sam. The convoluted storyline posits Tse, Fung and Lee as a trio of rebellious young cops, recruited as undercover agents by police commander Eric Tsang Chi-wai to investigate the shady business dealings between low-level Triad underling Wu and a Japanese crime lord (Toru Nakamura) who has seized a shipment of deadly explosives for nefarious purposes, prompting a sequence of betrayals and counter-betrayals amongst members of the opposing criminal factions, until events reach an explosive climax during a showdown at the newly-opened Hong Kong Convention Center.
Veteran director Benny Chan Muk-sing (A MOMENT OF ROMANCE, NEW POLICE STORY) marshals proceedings into a cohesive whole, though the movie fizzles badly after a dynamic opening sequence before rallying again somewhere around the halfway mark. The action scenes are staged and executed with all the breathless abandon one expects from HK cinema, but many of them unfold so quickly, it's often difficult to know who's doing what to whom, or even why, and crucial plot points are sometimes lost along the way. Few of the actors emerge with any credit, though Nakamura is admirably solemn as an English-speaking Japanese villain who clings to old-fashioned notions of truth and righteousness in a world where such virtues no longer have currency.Read more ›

Russian President Vladimir Putin hit out at "discrimination" against the country's banned track and field athletes at a Kremlin send-off ceremony Wednesday for its depleted Olympic team.
Fencers, triathletes and table tennis players became the latest team of Russians to be cleared to compete in the Olympics by the governing bodies of their sports ahead of the Moscow ceremony, but the IAAF rejected a bid by the bulk of the track and field team to be reinstated.
More than 100 Russians from the 387-strong Olympic team have been banned so far from going to Rio de Janeiro.

You are dead on. I'll probably cancel when Starz is gone (since it's not JUST Starz, it's also first run Sony and Disney). I kinda wished the headline would call that out a bit.
Well, now I'm really glad I canceled my Netflix service. I still have the TVDevo website's service and get movies and TV for cheaper than what Netflix offers.
Yeah. Redbox and other competitors must love hearing this. I decided cancel Netflix as well and honestly don't miss it.
To me the value of Netflix was being able to stream from my Wii, PS3 or Xbox. I know blockbuster is in bankruptcy, but once they are out they should be moving into this realm as well. Provided they have much better streaming content than Netflix.
Couldn't agree with you more, Stanley. I cancelled my Netflix account right before my 'grandfathered' two months expired. My wife and I are now getting movies out of Redbox, and frankly, we don't miss Netflix too much. The convenience of Netflix was nice...but at what cost?
Starz was pretty much the only thing worth it, as far as movies go, from the streaming catalog on Netflix. If they don't do something to improve the online movies quickly I'm canceling my subscription.

Yona Harvey is a literary artist and university professor in creative writing who lives and works in Pittsburgh. She appears at Writers LIVE with her extraordinary debut poetry collection, Hemming the Water.
Described by the poet Toi Derricotte as having "fierce elegance," Harvey's collection of thirty-five original poems speaks to the futility of trying to mend or straighten a life that constantly changes.
Hemming the Water (the title is inspired by a John Keats poem) uses the metaphor of water to explore the "impossible task" of controlling and shaping one's life. Yona Harvey's poems can also be found in jubilat, Gulf Coast, Callaloo, West Branch and other journals and anthologies.
As City Paper notes "Inspired by the great jazz musician Mary Lou Williams, Harvey sews (and sows) sound patterns that sing"
For the entire City Paper review article of Yona Harvey's book, please visit

A plane has landed safely at the Pueblo Regional Airport after having to make an emergency landing.
Mark Lovin, the airport director, tells 11 News that the main landing gear malfunctioned as the single-engine plane approached the airport. The pilot, from Pueblo, was uninjured, although the plane did obtain minor damage on its underside. The nose gear on the plane, a Cesna 210, deployed, which helped minimize damage. There were no other people on board.
Lovin said the pilot was "very competent." He told 11 News that emergency procedures were followed, and all involved came out with the best outcome for the situation.
The airport remained open during the emergency.
