Four held for murder of 45-year-old man: PTI

Four persons were today arrested by the Crime Branch for the alleged murder of a 45-year-old man in suburban Kandivali last month, which was earlier closed by the local police terming it as a case of accidental death.
The four accused — Jitesh Ramesh Rathod alias Pappu (32), Amit Kailas Patel (28) and Vinod Raju Jain (28) and Hardik Vijay Vaze (25) were arrested in connection with the murder of Kumod Jha (45), police said.
Kumod had been attacked by the four accused, whom he knew, after an altercation with them at a bar on July 27. The victim later succumbed to his injuries in a Kandivali hospital. The local police had filed a case of accidental death and closed the case, a senior police officer said.
The case was, however, reopened after the victim's mother contacted city police commissioner Rakesh Maria.
"Although the case was closed by the police, victim's mother Nirmala Jha, a resident of Bihar, was not convinced. She dashed off an e-mail to Rakesh Maria, who in turn alerted Joint Commissioner of Police (Crime) Atul Chandra Kulkarni, following which, Unit 11 of Crime Branch swung into action and nabbed the accused," the officer said.
Senior police inspector of Crime Branch Unit 11, Chimaji Adhav said, "We received the complainant's e-mail on August 18 and immediately approached Kumod's wife. She informed us that the accused had an heated argument with her husband on July 27. She named a few accused as well."
The owner of the bar, where the accused and the victim had an altercation, gave some inputs in the case, based on which we apprehended the four accused, he said adding that they would be produced in court tomorrow.
"How the victim was murdered and what was the exact motive behind it, would be disclosed after we get the custody of the accused," Adhav said.
Police have booked the accused under sections of IPC, including 302 (murder), 323 (voluntarily causing hurt), 504 (intentional insult with intent to provoke breach of the peace) and 34 (common intention).
Jitesh Rathod had previously served a jail term in a murder case and had come out of prison recently.
The officer said they would also inquire as to why local police did not act "professionally" in the case and pursue the matter before closing it.

MUMBAI: Nearly a month after a 45-year-old realtor's death in Kandivli was registered as an 'accidental death' case, a recent e-mail sent by his mother to the crime branch of Mumbai police has led to the arrest of four.
Property dealer Kumod Jha died on July 27. It was a minor tiff with four strangers that had blown up, said a police officer, when Jha and a friend had gone for a drink that day. While leaving the bar, Jha's accidentally brushed past a man who was with his friends. This led to a tiff and one of the four allegedly pushed Jha, injuring his head.
Later that night when Jha got home, he threw up blood. He died at Shatabdi Hospital.
Jha's mother Nirmaladevi, who later learnt about the tiff with the strangers, recently had an e-mail sent to the crime branch, about her son being murdered. Here, the crime branch took over. Deputy commissioner Dhananjay Kulkarni said they got footage of the spot where the tiff took place, leading to the arrest of the four men.

Kandivali resident Kumodh Jha died in July and the cops filed an accidental death report, saying he slipped and his head hit a rock. A month later, the Crime Branch investigation revealed he was killed in a drunken brawl.
The Crime Branch on Friday arrested four people in connection with the murder of a 45-year-old Kandivali resident in July. The Kandivali police had filed an accidental death report, but investigation by the Crime Branch revealed the victim was killed in a drunken brawl.
Those arrested have been identified as Hardik Vaze, 25, Jitesh Rathod, 32, Amit Patel, 28, and Vinod Jain, 28, all resident of Kandivali, who allegedly thrashed the victim, Kumodh Jha, who died on July 27. The Crime Branch took up the investigation after Jha's mother Nirmala sent an email to Police Commissioner Rakesh Maria, saying she suspected her son had been killed.
According to police, Jha was brought home unconscious late on July 26, and died at Shatabdi Hospital the next day. Senior Inspector Chimmaji Adhav from the Crime Branch Unit 11 said, "Jha's friend had brought him home that night. He, along with the victim's wife, tried taking him to hospital but couldn't find a taxi or an auto. One of the auto drivers refused to take Jha to the police station as he had vomited while getting in the rickshaw."
The two then managed to halt a police vehicle which was patrolling the area, and Jha was brought to Shatabdi Hospital. The Kandivali police recorded the statement of the two and said that Jha, in an inebriated state, fell and hit his head on a rock. An accidental death report was registered.
The Crime Branch began investigating the case a month after the incident. "We spoke to the victim's wife and the friend, and found that he had visited Samrudhi restaurant in Kandivali (W). After questioning a few people there, we learnt that he had got into a fight with a group that night," Adhav said.
The police further learnt that the four accused beat up Jha after the latter accidentally bumped into one of them. Adhav added that one of the accused, Jitesh Rathod, was convicted in a murder case and was released from jail six months ago, after completing a 10-year sentence. "The four men have been booked for murder. We have a watertight case following a thorough probe,"an officer said.

Vegas Part 2. Before I totally forget what happened.
I woke up at 7 am Vegas time, not having gotten enough sleep but not going to be able to sleep any further. I figured, well, why not go back down to the tables? I headed down to the poker room, and surprisingly there were two tables going and I got a seat within 15 minutes. I fared a little better, and at one point managed to win a $100 bonus by catching quads.
Twin A got up and I managed to get a rental car - $100 for the day (there goes that bonus!), which is double what Twin D and I would have paid for a two day rental. Oh well. I drove out to pick up Twin A and we went to brunch at the Wynn, which once again was amazingly delicious. Even Twin A was impressed. Only, for some reason, the coffee was a little gross. I was also introduced to the joys of valet parking, which is apparently free everywhere in Las Vegas (I had no idea). I managed to lose my ticket though, which required a little explaining and a little extra paperwork, but it all worked out.
We then headed over to the Pinball Hall of Fame for a little while, which was magnificent as always - Twin A and I squared off at Twilight Zone and each won a game against each other, and I also discovered that I was strangely good at ACDC pinball.
We then drove to the airport to pick up Kissyfur, who was flying in for the week. I dropped them back at Twin A's hotel, the Trump International, so they could have some smoochy time, and I went back to the Rio for some more poker. On the way, I didn't understand what my GPS was telling me so I got a little lost, but in the process I found the Spearmint Rhino. (No, I did not go in.)
I went back to the poker tables and again, fared a little better - no giant hands but I wasn't losing either.
I picked A and Kissyfur back up around 7 and we headed out for dinner. We went to Estiatorio Milos in the Cosmopolitan - Twin A was treating for my birthday, and since he was making extra money for being out in Las Vegas - the meal was exquisite. I had some fresh fish flown in that day from Greece, and all their appetizers were ridiculously good, and dessert was also outstanding. It was quite a feast.
After dinner we wandered around the strip some, and watched the Bellagio fountains, and then I went up with A and Kissyfur to see A's pad - not terrible, but there was a train track nearby, and the trains liked to blow their horns a lot. . .
I headed back to the Rio for one last poker binge, and again, I did okay. No major hands of note, and I won some more. I ended up winning around $200, and had covered my expenses in the meantime as well.
I'm going to head back in the spring if I can. There is a Facebook game that will actually give you comp Vegas hotel rooms for playing it. You have to play it a LOT, but hey, free is free. I could combine two nights through them and two nights through my Total Rewards account, and have four days out there, which would be awesome.
Twin A or Kissyfur, if you happen to read this and want to comment on anything I might have missed/forgotten, feel free. . . it's all a little hazy now at this point.

SAN FRANCISCO --Three people were shot during a home invasion robbery in San Francisco's Bayview District. Two people are in critical condition. One of those people in critical condition is believed to be the robbery suspect.
San Francisco police said the shootings took place at 2:30 this morning when three men broke into a converted warehouse on Elmira near Industrial. At some point, one of the victims got a hold of one of the suspects' guns and used his own gun to shoot him. The other two gunmen got away.
Young children were home at the time and witnessed the shooting. The children are okay and were transported to the hospital for observation.

With everyone now producing bikes that target the top-selling BMW R1200GS, Aprilia has baffled many by debuting its all-new, 1,200cc V-twin engine in the niche supermoto market rather than the lucrative adventure touring bike class.
The motor looks tailor-made to take on the GS and Ducati's Multistrada with its 129bhp, liquid-cooling and 90-degree format falling neatly between their respective 108bhp and 148bhp, and yet here it is in the very small-selling, "soft supermoto" sector.
Aprilia says this is deliberate in re-establishing its brand image, because of concern that many riders aren't really sure what Aprilia stands for any more. The brand is supposed to evoke images of hi-tech, exciting, fun machines and the management didn't feel the adventure sector quite made that statement in the same way as a supermoto.
On the face of it, this sounds logical, but Ducati has shown that adventure bikes can have all these attributes. Also, because Aprilia will eventually use this new engine in an adventure tourer – possibly as soon as next year – it's in a relatively soft state of tune whereas supermotos tend to be wild and raucous.
It's rather a gentle engine, especially when compared with offerings from that edgiest of manufacturers, KTM, with its punchy 990 V-twins. The Aprilia's chassis matches the character of the engine, with an emphasis on slow but steady steering.
It handles pleasantly enough, with a neutral feel right down to walking pace, but changing direction demands a lot of effort through the bars and it doesn't flick from side to side with the agility you might expect in this class. Plenty of riders might enjoy the Dorsoduro's secure chassis, but they probably wouldn't be considering one in the first place.
The motor is exceptionally smooth for a V-twin and it's happy to lug at low revs without being intrusively lumpy, although revving it isn't especially rewarding – it's more about mid-range torque. There are three engine maps, selectable on the move, one for wet weather (which is especially gentle). In contrast, Sport mode is almost shockingly aggressive, with a fiery bang of thrust at the slightest whiff of throttle. Most riders will probably find, as I did, that it's quicker as well as more comfortable in Touring mode because you don't have to concentrate so much on precise twistgrip inputs.
The Dorsoduro 1200 is plenty quick enough to be exciting anyway, its 129bhp being 10 more than the first Honda Fireblade mustered – and no one called those dull. Only the throttle response is softer in Touring mode, the outright power and torque are unaffected.
The Dorsoduro would possibly be quicker than the original Fireblade, too, as long as the road is not too twisty, because its suspension is excellent at soaking up poor surfaces and the brakes have plenty of power.
The southern Spanish launch route also included some very slippery sections, which made the bike's standard traction control system earn its keep. It's not as sophisticated as the amazing set-up on the same company's RSV4 Factory APRC SE superbike, but it's still an asset when conditions are variable.
The downside is that it refuses to let you pop up the front wheel (you can only switch it off after you've stopped). Wheelies, surely, are an integral part of the supermoto experience, but on the Dorsoduro you can have either those or the traction control, but not both.
Overall the Dorsoduro has the feel of a bike that doesn't really want to be in this class. It looks like a supermoto – it looks very good, in fact – but it's too soft and friendly to be a proper one. With a bit more comfort and a more generous fuel capacity it would be the basis of an effective adventure bike.
Rather too clearly, that's what the designers have been thinking all along.
Aprilia Dorsoduro 1200
Price/on sale: From £9,799/now
Power/torque: 129bhp @ 8,700rpm/85lb ft @ 7,200rpm
Top speed: 130mph (est)
Fuel tank/range: 3.3 gallons/ N/A
Verdict: An enjoyable bike but it's difficult to know who will buy it. It has price in its favour, more so if sluggish sales mean discounts. It's a lot of bike for the money and a capable one – just not a real supermoto.
Telegraph rating: Three out of five
Ducati Hypermotard 1100 Evo, £9,245
Despite air-cooling and a 34bhp deficit, this is a useful bike that feels punchier, lighter and more thrilling than the Aprilia, simply because it's less compromised.
This combines a real supermoto feel, albeit in a large helping, with genuine everyday and long-distance ability, proving you can have a supermoto that's useful.
Harley-Davidson XR1200X, £9,350
Its softer nature matches the Dorsoduro closely, as does the price, although it's well down on performance. Good handling and plenty of torque – and character.

Such figures contrast with most recent national house price

The complicated world of hormones, from the gut to the brain, plays a pivotal role in how hungry or full you feel, how efficiently you metabolize food, and where fat lands on your body. That affects the success you have at losing and maintaining weight, especially as you get older. By understanding how hormones do their jobs, you get a better overall picture of the weight loss landscape. Here's a lineup of hormones that play a role in weight control.
Produced by fat cells, leptin is involved with eating and appetite regulation. The level of leptin in your body is directly proportionate to your body fat; more body fat means more leptin in your blood. Here's the catch: The more fat you accumulate, the less responsive your body is to leptin, so your brain doesn't get the "stop eating" message as strongly. Researchers are investigating leptin's role as an appetite regulator and trying to determine ways to alter the mechanism. For now, the best thing you can do is build more muscle mass and decrease fat tissue by becoming physically active. This will help your body be more responsive to its leptin signals.
This oddly spelled hormone signals hunger and tells the brain it's time to eat. Ghrelin levels rise shortly before you eat and diminish once you're full. Blocking ghrelin production to reduce hunger feelings is one avenue researchers are investigating as a potential way to control appetite. Ghrelin is produced in the stomach and, according to a study in the New England Journal of Medicine, impaired ghrelin levels (in addition to a smaller stomach) may be one of the reasons why people who have had gastric bypass surgery can be satisfied with much smaller quantities of food; their hunger signals have been rewired or bypassed.
Everyone knows insulin control is critical for people with type 1 diabetes, but insulin also dictates how efficiently you metabolize food, whether you have diabetes or not. It also acts together with leptin when calories increase to initiate the "stop eating" message. As you acquire more fat, the body becomes insulin-resistant, meaning insulin cannot properly get energy (glucose) into the cells. Blood sugar levels rise out of control, sometimes resulting in full-blown diabetes. That's why weight control acts as one of the first lines of defense against diabetes. By maintaining a normal weight, you remain insulin-efficient and avoid further health complications.
Sex Hormones
The sex hormones estrogen, progesterone, and testosterone play critical roles in reproductive health, and they also have a role in weight gain, especially as you age. Have you noticed how many women in midlife go from being a pear shape (carrying weight in the thighs and buttocks) to an apple shape (packing more pounds around the abdomen)? This shift in weight distribution is often attributed to hormonal change. Both aging and menopause are associated with changes in fat metabolism and may contribute to midlife weight gain.
The Female Sweet Tooth
While this isn't a hormone in itself (though it can sometimes feel that way), there is some science behind the propensity for women to crave sweets. Ever wonder why you can polish off some desserts and candy during certain times of the month? Your craving for sweets may be related to the female hormone estradiol, according to a study published in the American Journal of Physiology.
Although the study was done with rats, the animal data suggest that the female preference for high-carbohydrate, sweet foods during the menstrual cycle may be influenced by hormonal changes.
It seems men prefer to chow down on high-protein, high-fat, salty foods, such as steaks, chips, and chili con queso, while women prefer another slice of pie.
Though it may seem unfair that this happens to you and not the men in your life, take heart. Your estradiol levels will go down, and you won't be in the grip of your hormones all month. There is also research that indicates physical activity may lessen the impact of this hormone, so plan extra walking during your high-risk time of the month.
What You Can Do About Hormone-Related Weight Gain
The internal, intricate pathways created by hormones aren't completely out of your control. "The most important thing for holding off midlife weight gain is getting some form of regular exercise," says Jane Harrison-Hohner, associate professor and women's health nurse practitioner at the Oregon Health & Science University School of Nursing in Portland. "Study upon study finds a healthful diet, combined with exercise, to be key to weight control."
Researchers have also identified other hormones that regulate appetite. A better understanding of the role that hormones play in stimulating and controlling appetite may lead to the development of medications that assist weight loss and maintenance.

Budgeting a Plan for Successful Implementation

In the September 2007 issue, I stressed the importance of performing a baseline ICD-10-CM readiness audit to identify current documentation deficiencies. Assuming you have since detected documentation deficiencies, the next step is to formulate a plan for improvement. To begin making process improvements, start by forming a committee or task force to review budget requirements, office systems, and deficiencies. Even if you are a small practice, it is a good idea to involve several staff members, including the physicians and other practitioners, in the plan for change. The most successful implementations are those that begin early and operate strategically.

It happened again on Sunday. I went out for a lovely camouflaged romp through the paintball fields and there they were. Wannabees. You know? "Want to Be's". Wannabe paintball snipers. They mean well. They really do. But they're walking around with camo that doesn't blend in and markers that would be more suited to a cheap action flick. I'm totally cool with the whole milsim marker business. It's awesome. BUT, most of those markers are not ideally suited to paintball sniper. Here are three mistakes I see people making when they try to create a paintball rifle, sniper style.
Hopper Too Big
Hoppers are the bane of my existence. If I didn't have to play with it, I wouldn't. (I know, magazine fed markers are out there and believe me, my eyeballs are on them.) That being said, as a tactical paintball sniper, you should not need a hopper larger than 50 rounds. 100 rounds at the max. When engaging a target, think along the lines of using 2-3 balls per target, realistically. I routinely squeeze off two rounds when I get the drop on someone just because of the uncertainty of a paintballs notoriously inconsistent flight. And you must get in the mindset of avoiding long, drawn out, paint-wasting engagements. Leave that to your wingman or the other members of your team. You're a sniper. Act like it. By the way, I recently added a 50 round cyclone hopper for my A5 and I love it.
Barrel Too Long
Longer is not better! In fact, the first 8″ of the barrel is used to get the paintball up to speed. After that, barrel length is only to keep the paintball straight a bit longer. In my experience, a 12″ to 14″ barrel is the absolute max you should be using. Beyond that, you'll be losing velocity, propellant and maneuverability. In fact, in future articles, I'm going to be discussing how to play as a sniper with pistols or 6″ barrels.
Scope Too Low
This applies to players with a "one-shot, one-kill" mentality only. As a note, I don't play with a scope. And there are a lot of guys who will give you the gears about whether a scope even works or not. Piss on 'em. Of course it works. Try it at the practice range. But, where I see guys making the mistake, is mounting their scope directly on the receiver of their marker, right on the dovetail or picatinny rail. With a stock coming right off the back of the marker, you'll notice quickly that if you try to look through that scope with your mask on, you can't get your cheek low enough to see through the scope. Three solutions. One, get rid of the stock.. You'll lose stability and cool factor but you'll be able to use your sights. Two, raise the scope on a mounted rail. Two inches should be plenty. Three, use an offset rail that mounts your scope to the inside of your receiver and hopper, closer to your eye. Personally, I'd be more likely to lose the scope altogether. It looks sick, but practically speaking, I think it gets in the way of the paintball sniper effectiveness.
Smaller hopper, shorter barrel and, if you have to use it, raise the scope. You'll lighten up and improve mobility, both critical assets for tactical paintball snipers.

FDA adds staff under expansion
The FDA plans to hire an additional 1,300 scientists and pharmacologists as part of an expansion of its drug approval and safety operations processes.
The 1,300 new hires will add to the agency's current staff of about 10,000 employees and would nearly be triple the number of people hired by the FDA from 2005-2007, according to published reports.
Increased user fees are expected to pay for 700 of the new additions.
The additional positions are driven by the FDA Amendments Act of 2007 and the Import Safety Plan.
"It takes a large pool of talented people for the FDA to protect and promote the public health," said FDA deputy commissioner for operations John Dyer in a statement.
The FDA will hold job fairs across the country as part of its hiring process, the agency said.

(Refiles to edit headline)
* EU leaders say urgently considering sanctions
* At least 26 killed, including 10 policemen
* Yanukovich accuses opponents of attempt to seize power
* Protesters gear for fresh action against police
By Richard Balmforth and Natalia Zinets
KIEV, Feb 19 (Reuters) - Western powers threatened sanctions
on Wednesday over the death of 26 people in the worst violence
since Ukraine's independence from the Soviet Union, pressuring
President Viktor Yanukovich to compromise with his pro-European
Yanukovitch, backed by Russia, denounced the overnight
bloodshed in central Kiev as an attempted coup and his security
service said it had launched a nationwide "anti-terrorist
operation" after arms and ammunition dumps were looted.
In the western bastion of Ukrainian nationalism, a regional
assembly declared self-rule and crowds seized public buildings.
European Union leaders condemned what they called "the
unjustified use of excessive force by the Ukrainian authorities"
and said they were urgently preparing targeted sanctions against
officials responsible for the crackdown.
EU officials said Yanukovich himself would not be on the
list to keep channels of dialogue open. The foreign ministers of
Germany, France and Poland will visit him on Thursday, hours
before an emergency EU meeting to decide on the sanctions.
The United States, going head to head with Russia in a
dispute heavy with echoes of the Cold War, urged Yanukovich to
pull back riot police, call a truce and talk to the opposition.
Neighbouring Poland's prime minister, Donald Tusk, said
Ukraine faced civil war, even partition, if dialogue fails:
"What if no compromise is achieved?" he asked in parliament. "We
will have anarchy and perhaps division of the state or civil
war, the beginning of which we may now be witnessing."
Protesters have been occupying central Kiev for almost three
months since Yanukovich spurned a far-reaching trade deal with
the EU and accepted a $15-billion Russian bailout instead.
The sprawling nation of 46 million, with an ailing economy
and endemic corruption, is the object of a tug-of-war at a
global level between Moscow and the West. But the struggle was
played out at close quarters, hand to hand, in fighting through
the night on Kiev's Independence Square, or Maidan.
After night fell, fires blazed along the barricaded
frontline between the protesters and riot police but there was
no immediate sign of a repetition of Tuesday's violence.
Russian President Vladimir Putin and Yanukovich spoke by
telephone during the night and both denounced the events as an
coup attempt, a Kremlin spokesman said.
Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov blamed the West for
encouraging opposition radicals "to act outside of the law".
Moscow announced on Monday it would resume stalled aid to
Kiev, pledging $2 billion hours before the crackdown began. The
money has not yet arrived and a Ukrainian government source said
it had been delayed till Friday "for technical reasons".
Ukraine's hryvnia currency, flirting with its lowest levels
since the global crash five years ago, weakened to more than 9
to the dollar for the second time this month.
After a night of petrol bombs and gunfire on Independence
Square, a trade union building that protest organisers had used
as a headquarters stood blackened and gutted by fire.
Security forces occupied about a third of the square - the
part which lies closest to government offices and parliament -
with protesters reinforced their defences on the remainder of a
plaza they have dubbed "Euro-Maidan".
In a statement posted online in the early hours, Yanukovich
said he had refrained from using force during three months of
unrest but was being pressed by "advisers" to take a harder
line: "Without any mandate from the people, illegally and in
breach of the constitution of Ukraine, these politicians - if I
may use that term - have resorted to pogroms, arson and murder
to try to seize power," the president said.
He declared Thursday a day of mourning for the dead. The
state security service said it had opened an investigation into
illegal attempts by "individual politicians" to seize power.
One opposition leader, former world champion boxer Vitaly
Klitschko, walked out of a overnight meeting with Yanukovich,
saying he could not negotiate while blood was being spilt.
When fighting subsided at dawn, the square resembled a
battle-zone, the ground charred by Molotov cocktails. Helmeted
young activists used pickaxes, and elderly women their bare
hands, to dig up paving to stock as ammunition.
The Health Ministry said 26 people were killed in fighting
in the capital, of whom 10 were police officers. A ministry
official said 263 protesters were being treated for injuries and
342 police officers, mainly with gunshot wounds.
The interior ministry said five of the dead policemen were
hit by identical sniper fire in the head or neck. Journalists
saw some hardline protesters carrying guns at the barricades.

Falkland Islands travel guide
The Falkland Islands are another world. First, another world from what most of us associate them with and second , this Atlantic archipelago has some of earths wildest and most far out there landscapes, with white beaches, hidden beaches and empty beaches. Except for the sea lions, penguins, dolphins, whales, elephant seals and over 200 species of birds. In fact, all conflict aside, the real rulers here are actually penguins. Kings, even. Just one of five species living here, the others being rockhopper, Magellanic, gentoo and macaroni penguins, there are nearly half a million breeding pairs. Hanging out in their white sandy kingdoms and keeping their beautiful beady eyes open for resident dolphins and whales, and the particularly vicious leopard seal.
Stanley is the capital, on East Falkland Island, and welcome land after a long sea crossing for many for whom this is a stopover en route to Antarctica. After which youll need a pint. Even the Falkland Islands have their own craft beer now. See our Falkland Islands travel guide for more details.
Falkland Islands map & highlights
There are few places in the world that are as camp as the Falklands. Thats because when you visit, you will either be staying in Stanley, the capital, or in camp, meaning the countryside. And there is a lot of countryside, with two main East and West Falkland Islands and 776 others. Travel by ferry between some, although the Falkland Islands Government Air Service (FIGAS) is the preferred transport mode for most to see the white beaches of Sealion Island, for example. Discover peninsulas packed with penguins, waters awash with whales, and colossal coastal grasslands.
Charles Darwin visited here during his 1830s zoological survey on the Beagle's second voyage. Now remote and sparsely populated, its history ranges from 19th century cattle farming gauchos to early 20th century Scottish sheep farmers and, most recently, the nearby Battle of Goose Green during the Falklands War of 1982. A ten week war in a landscape that still feels utterly unchanged by time.
Sealion Island
One of the most southerly islands, a 40-minute flight from Stanley, it is also home to the Falklands only purpose built tourist lodge the southernmost British hotel in the world. It is also habitat for sealions, and a top breeding spot for elephant seals. Less obvious, but equally prolific are the ground nesting birds that thrive in the wildflower filled grasslands. You wont miss the penguins, dolphins and orcas though.
The capital, on the largest East Falkland Island, and home to the majority of islanders, it is also the landing point for many of the ships en route to Antarctica. There is a quaint Anglican cathedral to visit, and you will gain great insight into island heritage in this Atlantic anomaly, at the Historic Dockyard Museum, with exhibits ranging from life saving telephone exchange, to the life taking Falklands War.
Volunteer Point
Whats the Point? The islands largest colony of king penguins, plus a full on party of gentoo and Magellanic penguins too, all hanging out on this 2km white sandy beach, to the north of Berkley Sound. Thats the point. Take a guided tour here with an expert naturalist, plus a good driver. These wild beauties can waddle and wade their way across the coastal grass and boglands, but humans need a 4X4.
West Falkland Island
This island represents what the islanders mean by camp. On the Falklands, you either live in Stanley or in camp which means in the country. Stay on one of the large farm settlements here, hike up the highest peak of Mount Adam, go whale or penguin spotting at Port Edgar, or go trout fishing on the Warrah or Chartres rivers around Port Howard. This is camp with bells on.
Wildlife watching
Play word association with the Falklands and people usually come up with war. Or sheep. Not five penguins species and nearly 500,000 breeding pairs. Nor the fact that two thirds of the world's black-browed albatrosses hang out here, as do killer, fin, sei, and minke whales, Peale's and Commerson's dolphins, elephant seals and sea lions. Plus over 200 species of birds, and 22 protected Important Bird Areas.

BURNS, OR --The Harney County sheriff says two people have died in the crash of a small plane about 70 miles south of the Eastern Oregon city of Burns. Sheriff Dave Glerup said Wednesday night via e-mail that no additional information would be available from his office until relatives have been notified.
Federal Aviation Administration spokesman Ian Gregor said earlier he believed three people were presumed dead in the Wednesday morning crash but he said Wednesday night that information was just preliminary.
The FAA described the plane as a twin-engine Aero Commander 500B. No details of the crash were immediately available.
The plane is registered to a Bonsall, Calif., man but it was not known if the owner was aboard.

In the mid-nineteenth century two of America's greatest writers met in Merseyside. The time they spent together was short but significant; Mark Gorton explores the troubled mind of Herman Melville.
Herman Melville, creator of Captain Ahab's obsessive hunt for the white whale, Moby Dick, was slave to a self-destructive quest of his own. An outsider, possessed by a hectic and confused interior life, Melville had long hovered between belief and doubt, faith and cynicism, light and darkness. But by the early 1850s a malign and persistent shadow had fallen across him: at worst the universe was a conspiracy to inflict suffering; at best it was a vast practical joke. His well-being, both physical and spiritual, began to decline. He was pale and distracted and endured headaches and pain.
In 1856 Melville made an escape bid from his troubled self. He left New York on board a screw steamer bound for Glasgow with the aim of visiting Europe and the Holy Land. "I stayed in Glasgow three or four days," he recorded in his journal. "From Glasgow I went to Edinburgh, remaining there five days I think. From Edinburgh I finally went to York. After a day's stay to view the Minster, I came here."
Here was Liverpool. Melville arrived just after mid-day on Saturday 8 November. He took a room in the White Bear hotel and then re-traced some of the steps he had taken during his first visit when, aged 20, he had sailed to the port as a boy on a packet. He was planning to sail from Liverpool to Constantinople, but also take the opportunity to look up his old friend, Nathaniel Hawthorne. Hawthorne, like Melville, Ralph Waldo Emerson and Walt Whitman, was a bright bloom in the first great flowering of American literature. Best known for The Scarlet Letter he was now American Consul at Liverpool and had made a home for his wife and children in Southport.
The two men were first re-united at the Consulate and, although friends, their initial exchanges were uncomfortable. Hawthorne had tried without success to secure a consular appointment for Melville and was embarrassed by his failure. And Melville was simply Melville, "looking much as he used to," wrote Hawthorne later, "a little paler and perhaps a little sadder, in a rough outside coat, and with his characteristic gravity and reserve of manner. But the discomfort ebbed away and we soon found ourselves on pretty much our former terms of sociability and confidence." Melville described the journey he was making and they talked of the home he had left behind. Hawthorne doubtless looked closely at his friend. He knew at once that his health was poor and had "long believed that his writings have indicated a morbid state of mind."
Hawthorne invited Melville to stay in his Southport home for as long as he might remain in the vicinity. Melville accepted and arrived there the next day having picked up his luggage from his hotel. The paucity of his belongings shocked Hawthorne: "The least bit of a bundle, which contained a night-shirt and a tooth-brush. He is a person of very gentlemanly instincts in every respect, save that he is a little heterodox in the matter of clean linen." Hawthorne did not understand that Melville was a sailor at heart; he could live rough and travel light.
Melville stayed with the Hawthornes from Tuesday to Thursday. Here there were roaring fires, hearty meals and the simple pleasure of conversation with Hawthorne's children, Julian and Una. But although Melville brightened that first night in Southport the mood did not last. On the Wednesday the two writers took a walk along the strand. There was a cold wind blowing across the deserted sands, a landscape that seemingly matched or encouraged Melville's troubled spirits. In America and in happier times the two men had talked at great length, Melville noting that Hawthorne's ability to listen in thoughtful silence was a unique quality. But now, as the desolate wind blew, Melville simply wanted desperately to unburden himself and Hawthorne was troubled by what he heard. Melville described territory he had spoken of before, only now he seemed hopelessly lost there.
"We sat down in a hollow among the sand hills," recalled Hawthorne, "sheltering ourselves from the high, cool wind and smoked a cigar. Melville began to reason of Providence and futurity, and of everything that lies beyond human ken, and informed me that he had pretty much made up his mind to be annihilated, but still he does not seem to rest in that anticipation; and, I think, will never rest until he gets hold of a definite belief. It is strange how he persists in wandering to-and-fro over these deserts, as dismal and monotonous as the sand hills amid which we were sitting." The gulls echoed Melville's loneliness and the lights of little lives shone from the town's windows. Finally the cold and the gathering darkness ended an endless conversation. The two men, saddened and silent, returned home.
The next day Hawthorne had business back in Liverpool. Melville went sight-seeing in the city and made enquiries about passage among the steamers. On Saturday the friends took a day trip to Chester, but if Hawthorne had hoped to cheer up Melville it was in vain. They parted on a Liverpool street corner, Melville turning away into the night and the rain.
They met for the last time on Monday. Melville, for his friend's sake, said he felt much better than in America. But Hawthorne noted: "He certainly is much overshadowed but I hope he will brighten as he goes onward."
He did not. When Melville sailed from Liverpool he was once again in flight across a sea as vast and lonely as his own imagination; and once again in pursuit of the fabulous but terrifying submarine creatures that cruised through his psyche.

Internet Marketing Company's Continued Momentum Heavily Due to Customer Engagement, Success, and Satisfaction
CAMBRIDGE, MA--(Marketwire - January 27, 2011) - HubSpot, Inc. reaches a new milestone, helping 4,000 businesses take advantage of inbound marketing to get found online and increase sales using HubSpot's integrated marketing software. The inbound marketing company attributes much of this rapid growth momentum to continued focus on customer engagement, success, and satisfaction. http://www.hubspot.com/blog/bid/8998/HubSpot-Continues-Rapid-Growth-Helps-4-000-Businesses-Achieve-Inbound-Marketing-Success
"We're thrilled to have the opportunity to help so many companies take advantage of inbound marketing techniques to get found online and grow their businesses," said Brian Halligan, HubSpot CEO and co-founder. "It's so important for companies to understand the impact the web can have on their businesses, so we're very committed to nurturing our customers and helping them to succeed."
HubSpot's continued momentum is evidenced by:
"HubSpot's dedication to customers' inbound marketing success has completely transformed my professional career," said Marcus Sheridan, two-time HubSpot customer and partner. "I started off knowing nothing about computers, and through the use of HubSpot's software and training, I now own two very successful businesses, one of which is a web coaching company I launched using my newfound inbound marketing knowledge and expertise."
To increase customer engagement, over the past few months HubSpot has also assembled a network of local HubSpot User Groups (HUGs), which give HubSpot users across the globe the opportunity to gather with other local customers for the purpose of networking, learning, and sharing information and advice about inbound marketing and the HubSpot software.
"There is power in numbers," said Dale Berkebile of Brandwise, founder of the Dallas Local HubSpot User Group who recently published a video about the group's value. "The Dallas HUG has been meeting for a year now, and in this time we have covered a wide range of topics and been able to help every member of the group be more active in HubSpot, and more importantly, more effective in their marketing efforts."
With HubSpot's continued growth on top of an existing base of 4,000 customers and tens of thousands of users, the time is now for businesses to start practicing inbound marketing and taking advantage of HubSpot and customer peer groups like the local HUGs.
Tonight, HubSpot will host a HUG Meetup and Show-and-Tell at its Cambridge headquarters for local customers and friends. CEO Brian Halligan will share upcoming developments and innovations to the HubSpot platform, which ensure customers have access to the best marketing tools to improve their inbound marketing efforts. His remarks will be livestreamed at 6 PM ET on the HUG website at http://hugs.hubspot.com.

|Chapter 1
Shi-Woon Yi is the main protagonist of The Breaker Series. He is the first official disciple of Chun-Woo Han, the Goomoonryong, and the current Head of the Sun-Woo Clan, and the Danju of the Martial Arts Alliance.
Shi-Woon looks much like any other Korean high school student, often dressing in his uniform and later on in sweat suits. He has shaggy hair and an unremarkable "failing" face. His body is particularly skinny with little to no muscle at the beginning of the series, as made evident by his inability to complete most basic physical exercises, which may be due to his particular body condition, resulting in a body that was naturally inferior since birth. Although his strength has increased after receiving training from Goomoonryong, his body didn't change much; however, his fashion sense looks to be getting more and more like that of So-Chun Hyuk. Recently his body has became more muscular comparable to other Murim like Chun-Woo Han or Ha-Ill Gang.
After the S.U.C.'s invasion in the Nine Dragons High School, Shi-Woon underwent the phenomenon change called Overhaul Rebirth, which rearrange his body. However, no distinct outer change has been visible aside from So-Chun Hyuk commenting about an increase in height. This comment may be more focused on Shi-Woon's increased mental, spiritual, and social presence instead of on his literal height.
Recently after the death of Elder Kwon and entering the Black Origin Threshold Shi-Woon body surrounded by Ki flames and his eyes changed colours.
In the beginning Shi-Woon was a coward and constant target of bullies. No matter how far Chang-ho and his gang went, Shi-Woon was too cowardly to oppose them or stand up for himself. This led to him being treated as a slave at times. He was unable to properly talk to his crush, Sae-Hee. Even though she was a supportive and kind, consoling Shi-Woon when she saw him after a beating, Shi-Woon was unable to handle the attention and broke down sobbing at how helpless he was in front of her. His feelings were so fragile and confused that he even yelled at Sae-Hee. Eventually, all of the stress added up Shi-Woon lost hope in life. He was convinced that dying would be better than the living and prepared to kill himself. This all changed when Chun-Woo Han arrived at school. He isn't afraid of blackmailing Chun-Woo Han with a video of him fighting a group of thug, telling that he will put it on the internet not before saving the video in his home computer. After learning how to fight from Chun-Woo Han. Shi-Woon was able to slowly develop his own will and courage based of his own spirit and Chun-Woo's blunt lessons. Unlike Chun-Woo, Shi-Woon has an utter distaste for killing, talking his master out of killing enemies despite the consequences. Shi-Woon has no problem with depending on others but also has an overwhelming resolve to protect those he cares for. This trait was present before training, but afterwards, he has the ability to act on it more effectively. He is still very meek and prefers to avoid confrontation unless the situation calls for it.
According to So-Chun Hyuk, Shi-Woon is a person who surpasses the instincts of mankind. He is prepared to die whenever he fights, abandoning the fear that most people have while fighting. This lack of fear then has the reverse effect on his opponents, making enemies who are superior to Shi-Woon fear him.[1] Ju Sang-Sik has seen the same thing, stating that Shi-Woon fights like a veteran of the Murim. He also states that contrary to his innocent nature, Shi-Woon is very calculating fighter.[2]
It should be noted that throughout the series his resolve not only irritates others but can even leave people to pondering his magnificence. This effect is so powerful that many people have gone from disliking, or even wanting to kill, Shi-Woon to actually joining his cause or falling for him. This "skill" has been effective on everyone from peers all the way to elders, geniuses, and even homicidal masters. Some examples: Chun-Woo Han, Shi-Ho Lee, Jang So-Sul, So-Chun Hyuk, Jin-Ie Kwon, Ji-Gun Yoo, Sera Kang, Elder Jeong, Elder Kwon, Mun-Gi Ma.
He has picked up some trait from Chun-Woo is having small bouts of uncharacteristically strong rage. These have been seen when something he cares for has been insulted, threatened, or hurt. He's rage was first seen when Chang-Ho threatens Sae-Hee in the first part of the series but is not as intense until later one. His rage reappears again when he finds out that the S.U.C. had severely hurt his mother and when he learns that Sera Kang was hurt using while herself as a distraction. This rage leads to him entering the Black Origin Threshold when Jang-II Jeong is seemingly killed by an explosive during the S.U.C.'s attack on his school. More recently, he has developed a great pride in the Sun-Woo clan. If anyone insults or debases the Clan, even indirectly through not respecting him as the Ganju, Shi-Woon reacts with rage and anger. Having had drastically different experiences within the Murim, master and pupil also differ in temperament when their rage does manifest. Chun-Woo will often show sadistic pleasure along with his rage while Shi-Woon simply becomes cold, determined and assertive.
After being given the seat of the Martial Arts Alliance Chief, Shi-Woon desire to become stronger was strengthened as he needed to be stronger in order to live up to the responsibility and trust placed on to him. As he also developed strong a desire to fight in order to see how much he improved. This was seen when he was leaving the the Martial Arts Alliance building and came across So-Chun Hyuk, upon seeing him he was thinking about fighting him to see how much he has improved his skills and techniques.
Shi-Woon had a complete loyalty to his master, the Nine Arts Dragon and couldn't believe that he was what he was told by So-Chun Hyuk the S.U.C. are his follower or that he is the one who is giving them the orders to do what they did. Even after witnessing one of the videos Chun-Woo sent to the S.U.C. and seeing the damage his master personally inflicted. Shi-Woon still believed that his master isn't that kind of a person. However, after witnessing the death of Elder Kwon and using the Black Origin Threshold Shi-Woon gave up on his former master, started viewing him as an enemy and stopped calling him teacher or master and instead call him by his title.
- "If it weren't for Sunsengnim . . . I probably wouldn't be here today." - Shi-Woon to Chun-Woo
- "Both disciple and master are absolute morons." - Takeshi in reference to Chun-Woo and Shi-Woon
- "My fist isn't that weak! You think I'd lose to those pseudo-martial arts?!" - Shi-Woon to Yong-Hyun Yan
- "I don't know what happened, but I'm glad to see him in the Murim again." - Kang-Sung in reference to Shi-Woon
- "Even so... even so, I believed ... that sunsengnim... that you are absolutely not that kind of person... However ... However, I can no longer ... believe in you... Goomoonryong" - Shi-Woon to Chun-Woo Han
- He is the driving force of the story in New Waves.
- Shi-Woon was dubbed by So-Chun Hyuk as the first person to defeat him.
- He has experienced a similar incident in both Part I and New Waves at around the same chapter time. In Part 1, he faced off against So-Chun Hyuk and in New Waves with Ji-Gun Yoo. Both individuals were prodigies, beat him brutally in battle, were affected by his spirit, and both accepted defeat after being hit only once. Also, in both parts, Shi-Woon gets pursued by a large group of people and these events both begin after something huge happens to Shi-Woon. In The Breaker, he finally masters a foot technique and the Soul-Crushing Strike. In New Waves, he goes though Overhaul Rebirth.
- Both he and his master have had their arms in a sling and one of their legs were hurt for a time and engaged in battle regardless.
- Both he and his master have an archenemy each. Chun-Woo Han has the Martial Arts Alliance and Shi-Woon Yi the Soldiers Under Command. Ironically one becomes the leader of the other's archenemy, Chun-Woo leads the S.U.C. and Shi-Woon the M.A.A.
- Shi-Woon Yi's name means "lucky stone" in Korean language.
- Ironically, both of his master and Ryuji thought that killing Shi Woon was an act of freeing him and both of them failed. Also, all living practitioner of the Black Heaven & Earth style tried to kill him at one point in their life.
- During his fight against Ji-Gun Yoo in New Waves Chapter 20 it was shown that his rib was broken, but in Vol. 3 it was shown that it was merely fractured.

As Co-Chair of the Kentucky Legislative Sportsmen's Caucus, I find it fitting to take a moment to extend an enormous debt of gratitude to our hunters and anglers. The critical contributions that these sportsmen and women make to our economy and professional fish and wildlife management in the Bluegrass State ensure that we will enjoy access to our hunting and angling traditions now and into the future.

Ted Williams ripped off his shirt without bothering with the buttons. The great Boston slugger was so steamed at striking out three times in a single game that he began plotting his revenge before leaving the locker room.
"He walked over to the schedule on the wall, ran his finger down until he came to the next Detroit series," recalled Gene Mauch, then a Red Sox infielder.
Finding the date, Williams made a vow.
When I try to think of everything our military men and women have given us as Americans, I quickly realize the error of my ways. It's impossible to account for everything our military men and women have done for us. From those first moments in the battle for freedom on colonial soil to the deserts of the Middle East today, their amazing acts of selflessness for this nation has been constant.
This month, I'd like to give readers a bit more insight on two topics you may know little about: bath salts and synthetic marijuana. These were two items among synthetic drugs that we are to report on through The Office of National Drug Control Policy, in order to keep our coalition updated. You may have heard of these drugs and did not realize they are deadly. With hard drugs running rampant in the streets, it is easy to put these in the back of your minds but they are in fact deadly.

Some debts never can be repaid.
A 71-year-old Hodgenville man was guest of honor at a surprise party recently coordinated by a group of elderly men who owe their long lives to his awareness, bravery and service.
After 51 years, members of a Vietnam-era squadron of U.S. Marines finally were able to thank Don Medley.
During a surprise gathering at Stone Hearth restaurant, Medley recounted the day he was flying over a rice paddy and noticed Marines advancing toward a trench line holding enemy forces.
Patriotism is a virtue that makes our country great. That is why we set aside specific days on our calendar to honor fallen soldiers, remember our military veterans, and celebrate American history.
One of those days is Memorial Day, which we celebrate this upcoming weekend.
Some of you may know and many of you do not know that we have a fifth member of our family named Ben. Ben stands about a foot tall, likes to eat food that our kids drop for him, is a best friend to my son, and is a protector to my daughter. Ben is our 10-year-old Boston Terrier. He truly is a member of the family. Many of you reading this have a "Ben" too. If you don't have a "Ben" then I would encourage you to get one—especially if you have children.
Over a month has passed since the conclusion of the 2017 Session of the Kentucky General Assembly but my work as your senator has not slowed. Between answering your well thought-out letters and phone calls, I have been visiting with constituents in our district and listening to your concerns and preparing to discuss many of those topics during the Interim.
Oprah Winfrey. Bill Clinton. George Clooney. Each has reached a level of success that few will ever know.
Age wise, however, they are faces in a very large crowd—a crowd called the Baby Boom generation which grows larger with each passing year. Made up of around 75 million people born between 1946 and 1964, Baby Boomers in America are in nearly a dead heat with the Millennial generation (ages 18-34) to claim the title of largest living generation in the U.S., according to the Pew Research Center.

Liam Gallagher Sues Brother Noel for an Apology
Good luck with that.
The perpetually escalating war of words between Noel and Liam Gallagher is on its way to London's High Court, as Liam has sued his older brother Noel for remarks he made about Oasis's downfall. In a press conference last month, Noel said Oasis pulled out of the 2009 V Festival, which eventually led to the band's breakup, because Liam was hung-over. Liam says that's a lie and he had laryngitis. He even has a doctor's note to prove it. He also says his brother has gone "way beyond rock-and-roll banter and questioned my professionalism," which is obviously not cool. So he's asking the court to force his brother to do something that seems about as unlikely as another Oasis reunion: apologize. [NYT]

Important events in the history of the Civil Rights movement for African Americans include the adoption of the 14th and 15th Amendments to the U.S. Constitution and the first and second Civil Rights Acts. The adoption of the 19th Amendment advanced the Civil Rights movement for American women.Continue Reading
The 14th Amendment received adoption in 1868, and this amendment gave African Americans full U.S. citizenship status, even if racist laws continued in existence. It also prevented states from denying the rights and privileges of all citizens. The 15th Amendment of 1870 guaranteed African Americans the right to vote, even though regional laws impeded on this right.
Congress's first Civil Rights Act of 1875 gave African Americans more power in juries, transportation, restaurant/inns and theaters, though the Supreme Court later knocked down this law. The Civil Rights Act of 1964 once again reinstated a ban on discrimination, including in such environments as schools, the voting booth and hotels. The amendment had to pass a Senate filibuster before it became the law. The Voting Rights Act of the following year extended voting rights of African Americans.
In 1920, the 19th Amendment received the necessary ratification from 36 states to become law. This amendment recognized the right of women to vote in elections.Learn more about US History

I am not sure who this Lillian Crane might be.I have Oliver Madison Menifee Yazel who married Nancy F. Craner in Fountain Co, IN Aug 17, 1871 with children Gertrude, Bertha, Mary, Daniel, and Hallie Ethel.
Another "cousin" Yazel in the Fountain Co group is Ruth Crane, mother of Anna Hole, who married Daniel Yazel 1821 in Montgomery Co, OH and migrated to Fountain Co, IN 1824.
Does any of this give you a clue ???
