Syrian rebels seize military base near Aleppo

NORTHERN SYRIA (CNN) -

Rebels captured a government military base Monday on the outskirts of Aleppo, the hotly contested Syrian metropolis that has seen more than a week of bloody clashes.

The base had about 200 Syrian troops and appeared to be under attack by rebels from three sides overnight.

"The battle lasted around nine hours," said Fazad Abdel Nasr, a rebel commander working in the northern Aleppo suburbs. Nasr said six regime soldiers and four rebel fighters were killed.

The rebels also gained heavy equipment to supplement the lesser weapons they had been fighting with.

"We captured four tanks in good condition, and they are now in the hands of the Free Syrian Army. Two were destroyed," Nasr added.

Despite the boost for the rebels, the relentless battle for Syria's largest city raged on Monday.

Al Jazeera correspondent Omar Khashram was wounded during heavy fighting in a central Aleppo neighborhood. A cameraman and driver working with Khashram, who was being treated in a hospital in Turkey, told CNN that shrapnel from a shell penetrated gaps in the correspondent's flak jacket in Aleppo's Salahuddin neighborhood.

U.N. observers have reported a surge in violence in Aleppo, with helicopters, tanks and artillery being used, mission head Lt. Gen. Babacar Gaye said Monday.

Regime forces launched missiles and shelled from attack helicopters, opposition activists said.

Aleppo, Syria's commercial and cultural hub, has seen a mass exodus amid the violence. About 200,000 people in and around the city have fled shelling and heavy weapon fire in the past two days, Valerie Amos, the U.N.'s under-secretary-general for humanitarian affairs, said Sunday.

There were conflicting reports Monday on who controlled the major Aleppo neighborhood of Salahuddin, which rebels had claimed days earlier. Both opposition fighters and the regime said Monday they had taken over Salahuddin.

At least 17 people were killed across Syria on Monday, including eight in Aleppo, according to the opposition Local Coordination Committees of Syria.

With no end to the country's 16-month crisis in sight, French Foreign Minister Laurent Fabius said his country will take more action to try to stop the bloodshed.

"As France is taking over the presidency of the U.N. Security Council on August 1, we are going to ask -- before the end of the week -- for a meeting of the Security Council, probably at a ministerial level ... to try and stop the massacres and prepare for the political transition," Fabius told French RTL radio on Monday.

Also on Monday, the top diplomat at the Syrian Embassy in London resigned his post, the British Foreign & Commonwealth Office said. Charge d'Affaires Khaled al-Ayoubi told British officials that he was "no longer willing to represent a regime that has committed such violent and oppressive acts against its own people," the office said in a statement.

Earlier Monday, a Syrian brigadier general -- who is also a deputy police chief of Latakia -- defected to Turkey, the Turkish Foreign Ministry said. An additional 11 Syrian officers also defected overnight, the ministry said. The total number of Syrians who have fled to Turkey has reached 43,500.

Meanwhile, fighting words continued between Syrian President Bashar al-Assad's regime and opponents near and far.

Syrian Foreign Minister Walid Moallem gave ominous words Sunday about the battle for Aleppo, vowing that rebels would not gain control of the city.

"Since last week, (opposition fighters) planned for whatever they called the 'great Damascus battle,' but they have failed after one week," Moallem said, referring to a rebel offensive beaten back earlier this month. "That's why they moved to Aleppo, and I can assure you that they will fail."

He made his comments during a trip to Iran, one of his nation's few remaining allies.

But U.S. Defense Secretary Leon Panetta predicted Sunday that the Syrian regime's violent crackdown in Aleppo will prove "a nail in Assad's coffin" by turning even more people against al-Assad and his government.

Nabil Elaraby, the head of the Arab League, said Sunday that the league believes war crimes are being committed in the city.

At least 114 people were killed across Syria on Sunday, according to the LCC; 11 of the dead were from Aleppo.

Elsewhere, 41 people were killed in Damascus and its suburbs, including 18 people whose bodies were found charred on farms in Moadamiyeh, the LCC said.

Syrian TV reported that "terrorists" suffered heavy losses after clashes in three Aleppo neighborhoods.

Music Goes Mobile: Making Music on The Phone

There is a faint hypnotic tune ringing hauntingly in the distance. It is pulling you into a blissful trance-like state; slowly it blends with your senses and takes you into this inexplicable high, up to the seventh heaven. Can?t figure out where it is coming from? Look closely; there is no sign of an instrument nearby. For all you know, this idyllic piece of music may be coming from a smartphone.

With approximately 4 billion cell phones around the World (inclusive of 25 million iPhones), there is a lot of potential in mobile creativity, that is, using mobile phones for a host of unimaginable purposes. Perhaps, it all started when Ge Wang, a Professor of music at Stanford CCRMA, with an aim of bringing about a ?mobile renaissance?, founded the Stanford Mobile Phone Orchestra, popularly named MoPhO. Says Wang,

?It levels the playing ground in some ways because everyone has a cell phone. Further, they are communication devices. So inherently, they connect people.?

Transform the multi-touch screens, built-in accelerometers, built-in microphones, GPS, data networks and computation into powerful and yet mobile chamber meta-instruments ? transforming the phone device into a grand instrument is not as complicated as it just sounded. Devise a quick code and the cell phone turns into ?one of the most intimate and personal devices man has ever known, but also one of the most ubiquitous.? In 2008, Wang co founded a company called Sonic Mule (SMULE), exploring interactive sonic media. With this began an array of music making mobile applications. Not your regular touch and play apps, but more comprehensive, interactive, sound centred applications that pave a promising way for music making applications.

http://bit.ly/NPaGem

The trendsetter in this category is Ocarina, an app that converts the iPhone into a 12,000 year old clay wind instrument called ocarina. The app enables users to blow into their smartphone devices? microphone to play flute like music. Available for 99 cents on App Store, Ocarina creates sounds in real time, based on gestures, tilt, wind input and finger placement on the four holes displayed on the touchscreen. Another part of the app shows the globe of the world with glowing points of light on different parts of the globe, each of which showed someone somewhere who had just used the app. You tap on a glowing point and a tune played by someone in that part of the world will be heard by you, wherever you are.

?This is connecting people musically that was not possible with formal performance,? says the founder. Perhaps this is the first instrument that connects and lets others having the same instruments hear what they are playing. ?One of the most magical programs?, as put by the NY Times writer David Pogue, Ocarina is among those very few music making apps revolutionising the mobile applications category.

I have listed below some other apps in the mobile music making category that have gained widespread admiration, owing to their unique features:

http://bit.ly/OvJiRF

iBone: It is a phone trombone which lets the user touch or blow into the mic to play a sound. Pitch can be changed by sliding the finger on the touchscreen and volume can also be adjusted. This app is available on Android as well.

Gliss: Gliss goes beyond the method of music making, uniting different human senses and skills. It lets you create music by drawing on your smartphone. The app sort of lets you draw what you?d like to hear. There are 5 colours in the palette, each representing a different type of sound. A cursor on the screen interprets your drawings. Tilting the phone left and right enables you to play the music backward or forward, fast or slow. The tilting also leads to the drawings falling to the either side, thus changing the sound?s pitch.

http://bit.ly/O9rBd7

Drum Meister: If you are someone who likes loud music and huge instruments, then this iPhone music making app is for you. It allows you to play drums on your phone using fingertips. It includes 10 drums, all on the same screen. Perhaps the coolest thing about this ap is that it lets you rearrange the position of the drums which influences the sound produced, through the 3D surround effect. It is available for $1.99.

So many apps focusing on enabling users to make their own music through their smartphones makes me wonder if everyone owning a smartphone will soon turn into a musician. It is truly a mobile revolution. As Ge Wang says, ?A mobile marching band isn?t far off.?

Is Tehran?s Mayor Iran?s Next Political Star? | World | TIME.com

Talking to cabbies is a timeworn journalistic technique. But when the area of coverage is Iran, it has merit. Drivers have always been barometers of political trends in Iran?s capital among the middle class. It is said that during the Islamic Republic?s formative years, taxi drivers were loath to discuss politics, lest it draw them into trouble. To avoid the risks, they dangled small signs from their rearview mirrors that read, ?Political debate not permitted.?

Today, those same taxis ? in some cases the same remarkably old Iranian-made Paykans ? are the venue for the most unabashedly frank political discussions. Conversations almost always gravitate toward the economy and the rising prices of commodities like bread, rice and milk ? a situation exacerbated by subsidy cuts over the past two years, the precipitous devaluation of the Iranian rial last year and by mounting sanctions against the country.

Among the loquacious taxi-driving community, almost no political figure emerges unscathed. Some direct their ire toward President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad for inflation and a variety of other perceived sins; others have little but contempt for former President Ali Akbar Hashemi Rafsanjani, despite his recent reformist-leaning positions. But one politician does enjoy a certain privileged status among Tehran?s cabbies, even if that means he isn?t the object of outright animosity. That would be the mayor of Tehran, Mohammed-Baqer Qalibaf.

?I?m not voting in the next election,? one taxi driver declares, skeptical of the country?s electoral system. But his resolve comes with strings attached: ?I?ll only cast my ballot if Qalibaf decides to run for the presidency; in that case, I?ll vote for him.? He may get an opportunity. On Monday, in a conversation with the semiofficial Fars News Agency, Qalibaf adviser Mohammad Nabi Rudaki said that the mayor?s would be a ?certain? presence as a candidate in the Islamic Republic?s 11th presidential election next year. Rudaki explained that the mayor would make an announcement later when he wasn?t busy with work. Said the adviser: ?He is engaged in important and big matters in the capital.?

As Tehran?s confederation of taxi drivers navigate the city?s tangled alleyways and congested thoroughfares, they profess their admiration for the mayor. Indeed, cab rides are a bit like show-and-tell. Qalibaf?s numerous construction projects and reforms are on public display as passengers and cabbies chug toward their destinations. As one taxi driver engages in small talk, we swoop down under a Qalibaf-commissioned bridge and past scores of newly planted sycamores on the Middle East?s longest street, Vali Asr. Among his works in progress are the development of parks and green spaces in the hilly Abbas Abad neighborhood, the double-deckering of the Sadr highway and the completion of the decades-old Imam Ali Highway project that will run the entire length of the capital. Several of Qalibaf?s biggest projects will be completed around the Iranian election season next year.

As the two-term mayor of Tehran, Qalibaf is pushing Iran?s burgeoning capital in startling new directions. He?s overhauled the city?s public-transportation system with a reliable network of buses, accelerated the construction of metro stations, worked toward expanding a much needed citywide sewer system, standardized the city?s garbage-collection system, worked to prop up new highways, tunnels and bridges to ease the flow of traffic, and constructed numerous parks with an aim to expand Tehran?s ?green space.?

The Abbas Abad project, for one, is seeing the transformation of a prodigious plot of land in central Tehran into a lush, park-museum-library-recreational-complex crisscrossed by several highways. It is designed to be linked together by a series of Gondola lifts and pedestrian bridges. It is scheduled for completion some time next year.

More building is on the way, with some media reports even suggesting that the city?s detested Evin prison ? where most of Tehran?s political prisoners are held ? may be on the chopping block to be replaced by another one of Qalibaf?s signature parks at some point in the future. Perhaps as a harbinger, the prison?s entrance is now decorated with a well-tended lawn and concrete terraces planted with flowers.

Qalibaf is a former Revolutionary Guard air-force commander who is said to have played an influential role in the 1982 liberation of Khorramshahr that helped turn the tide in the Iran-Iraq war. He is no rookie in Iranian politics. As Iran?s chief of national police, he equipped officers with top-of-the-line Mercedes cop cars, kick-started Iran?s equivalent of the 911 emergency hotline and computerized documents and form submission for the sprawling department. During the second half of the reformist administration of President Mohammed Khatami ? who was in office from 1997 to 2005 ? Qalibaf led the fight against counterfeit currency and smuggling.

In 2005, the rise to the presidency of another mayor of Tehran ? Mahmoud Ahmadinejad ? put a halt to the work of the reformists. Qalibaf had run for the presidency too but came in fourth. Still, he outpolled other prominent politicians, including Ali Larijani, who is now head of the Iranian parliament.

As mayors of Tehran go, however, Qalibaf, while admired for his ?unspeakably good management skills,? is not the most beloved among those who occupied that office. ?I can say that Qalibaf has certainly been good, though perhaps not as good as [Mayor Gholamhossein] Karbaschi,? opines a younger driver, referring to a hugely popular Tehran mayor in the 1990s who similarly worked to expand the city?s green space with scores of parks and thousands of trees and oversaw the construction of crucial highways that Qalibaf and others have since expanded. A staunch supporter of Khatami, Karbaschi was toppled by corruption charges leveled against him by conservative critics, made memorable by a nationally televised trial in 1998 that saw him sentenced to two years in prison. Karbaschi and his allies have described it as a smear campaign to curtail his popularity. It is a lesson that all politicians with presidential ambitions must surely take to heart.

Russia's 'Pussy Riot' on trial for cathedral protest

MOSCOW (Reuters) - Three women who protested against Vladimir Putin in a "punk prayer" on the altar of Russia's main cathedral went on trial on Monday in a case seen as a test of the longtime leader's treatment of dissent during a new presidential term.

The women from the band 'Pussy Riot' face up to seven years in prison for an unsanctioned performance in February in which they entered Moscow's Christ the Saviour Cathedral, ascended the altar and called on the Virgin Mary to "throw Putin out!"

Maria Alyokhina, 24, Nadezhda Tolokonnikova, 22, and Yekaterina Samutsevich, 29, were brought to Moscow's Khamovniki court for Russia's highest-profile trial since former oil tycoon Mikhail Khodorkovsky was convicted in 2010, for a second time, in the same courtroom where the Pussy Riot trial began.

Supporters chanted "Girls, we're with you!" and "Victory!" as the women, each handcuffed by the wrist to a female officer, were led from a white and blue police van into the courthouse through a side entrance. Streets around the court, on a high Moscow River embankment, were closed.

They were led into a metal and clear-plastic courtroom cage, where they milled and spoke with lawyers as preparations began. Tolokonnikova, in a blue chequered shirt, lowered her head to speak through a small opening in the enclosure. Two pairs of handcuffs hung at the ready just beside her face.

"We did not want to offend anybody," Tolokonnikova said, speaking to a defence lawyer who stood outside the enclosure. "We admit our political guilt, but not legal guilt."

The stunt was designed to highlight the close relationship between the dominant Russian Orthodox Church and former KGB officer Putin, then prime minister, whose campaign to return to the presidency in a March election was backed clearly, if informally, by the leader of the church, Patriarch Kirill.

The protest offended many believers and enraged Kirill. The church, which has enjoyed a big revival since the demise of the officially atheist Communist Soviet Union in 1991 and is seeking more influence on secular life, cast the performance as part of a sinister campaign by "anti-Russian forces".

ANGER OVER CLOSE CHURCH-STATE TIES

The women are charged with hooliganism motivated by religious hatred or hostility.

But in opening statements read by a defence lawyer, who sometimes struggled with the handwritten texts, they said they were protesting against Kirill's political support for Putin and had no animosity toward the church or the faithful.

"I have never had such feelings toward anyone in the world," Tolokonnikova said in her statement. "We are not enemies of Christians ... our motives are exclusively political."

"We only want Russia to change for the better," she said.

Alyokhina's statement said: "I thought the church loved all its children, but it seems the church loves only those children who love Putin."

The women looked thinner and paler than they did when they were jailed following the performance in late February, shortly before Putin, in power as president from 2000-2008 and then as prime minister, won a six-year presidential term on March 4.

"She looks like she has been on a long hunger strike," Stanislav Samutsevich said of his daughter. "Her cheeks are hollow ? I've never seen her in such a state. I think this is like an inquisition, like mockery."

A reporter on state-run Rossiya-24 television presented a different picture, focusing on occasional smiles and chuckles and an overall air of self-assuredness among the women, who whispered to each other as a prosecutor read the charges.

"Look at their faces; they are laughing and joking," the reporter said on the news, adding that a viewer might think they were "continuing the action" they carried out at the cathedral.

Prosecutors asked for the trial, which was streamed live on the Internet, to be closed to the public and the media, saying a "rift in society" and emotions over the case put the defendants and other participants at risk.

A group of conservative Russian writers called on Monday for tough punishment. But Kremlin opponents, rights activists and supporters of the defendants say the charges are politically motivated.

"This has nothing to do with the law, it is a political reprisal," said opposition lawmaker Gennady Gudkov. "(The prosecution of) Pussy Riot is of course an unprecedented case of stupidity and brutality on the part of the authorities."

PROTEST MOVEMENT

The performance, a protest against the church's support for Putin, was part of a lively protest movement that at its peak saw 100,000 people turn out for rallies in Moscow, some of the largest in Russia since the Soviet Union's demise.

The plight of the three women, who have been held in a courtroom cage during pre-trial hearings, has also drawn attention in the West, where governments are closely watching how Putin will handle dissent.

Rights groups and musicians such as Sting and the Red Hot Chili Peppers have expressed concern about the trial, reflecting doubts that Putin - who could serve until 2024 if re-elected in six years - will become more tolerant.

In her opening statement, read out by defence lawyer Violetta Volkova, Samutsevich said she saw the prosecution as "the start of a campaign of authoritarian, repressive measures aimed to ... spread fear among politically active citizens."

The trial comes as Putin, 59, is trying to forestall potential challenges and rein in his opponents, who hope to reignite the street protest movement this autumn.

On Monday, Putin signed a law enacting stricter punishment for defamation. That follows recent laws tightening controls on foreign-funded civil rights groups and sharply raising fines for violations of public order at street rallies.

Opposition leaders including anti-corruption blogger Alexei Navalny and socialite Ksenia Sobchak have had their homes searched and faced repeated rounds of questioning over violence at a protest on the eve of Putin's inauguration on May 7.

Navalny was due to appear before investigators in a separate case on Monday, and lawyers, who said they were told he would be charged with a crime punishable by up to five years in prison.

Amnesty International has called for the release of the Pussy Riot members, two of whom have young children, saying the charges are not a "justifiable response to the peaceful - if, to many, offensive - expression of their political beliefs."

Russian Prime Minister Dmitry Medvedev dismissed criticism of the case in remarks published on Monday, saying the trial was a "serious ordeal" for the defendants and their families but that "one should be calm about it" and await the outcome.

"It seems to me that there will always be different perceptions about what is acceptable and not acceptable from a moral point of view and where moral misbehaviour becomes a criminal action," he told the Times of London in an interview.

"Whether that is the case here is up to the court to decide," he said, according to a Russian government transcript.

Few Russians believe the country's courts are independent, however, and Medvedev acknowledged during his 2008-2012 presidential term that they were subject to political influence and corruption.

"The court's decision will depend not on the law but on what the Kremlin wants," said Lyudmila Alexeyeva, a Soviet-era dissident and veteran human rights activist who heads the Moscow Helsinki Group.

New day, old bickering on taxes between Obama, GOP

Graphic shows the annualized growth rate of the U.S. economy

(AP) ? New day, old bickering between President Barack Obama and congressional Republicans.

Obama used his Saturday radio and Internet address to finger GOP lawmakers for a stalemate that could increase taxes on Americans next year. A leading Republican senator cast the president and his Democratic Party as obstructionists who want to place the tax burden on businesses during an economic slowdown.

Obama pressed the Republican-controlled House to extend Bush-era tax cuts for households making $250,000 or less while letting lower rates on wealthier taxpayers expire and go up. The Democratic-controlled Senate narrowly passed such a measure this past week; the House is not expected to follow suit.

"Instead of doing what's right for middle-class families and small-business owners, Republicans in Congress are holding these tax cuts hostage until we extend tax cuts for the wealthiest Americans," Obama said.

Responding on behalf of the congressional GOP, Utah Sen. Orrin Hatch, the top Republican on the Senate Finance Committee, said Obama's plan would do more harm to the economy and criticized him with almost identical language. He called for extending current tax rates for all taxpayers and spending 2013 overhauling and simplifying the tax code.

"Raising taxes as our economy continues to struggle is not a solution, and the majority of Americans and businesses understand that," Hatch said. "The president and his Washington allies need to stop holding America's economy hostage in order to raise taxes on those trying to lead our economic recovery."

The competing views frame today's Washington political debate and the presidential contest. With the economy standing as the main issue on voters' minds, Obama, rival Mitt Romney and lawmakers of both parties are engaged in brinkmanship and political test votes ahead of the November election and the Dec. 31 deadline when the Bush-era tax rates expire.

Obama used his address to take a rare swipe at Romney, even though he didn't mention his challenger by name.

"Republicans in Congress and their nominee for president believe that the best way to create prosperity in America is to let it trickle down from the top," he said. "They believe that if our country spends trillions more on tax cuts for the wealthy, we'll somehow create jobs ? even if we have to pay for it by gutting things like education and training and by raising middle-class taxes. They're wrong."

Saturday's dueling addresses come a day after the government reported that weak consumer spending held growth to an annual rate of just 1.5 percent in the second quarter. That was lower than the 2 percent rate of the first quarter and less than what's necessary to help drive down the unemployment rate, now stuck at 8.2 percent.

The White House budget office on Friday also predicted that the economy for this year will grow at a modest 2.6 percent annual rate and that the jobless rate will average 8 percent. It forecasts 2.6 percent growth next year, down from the 3.0 percent it predicted in February.

Poop Strong: Cancer patient whose costs exceeded insurance cap ...

Arijit, 31, is graduate student in Arizona who was diagnosed about a year and a half ago with stage IV colon cancer. He endured multiple surgeries, and grueling rounds of chemotherapy. Then, in February, 2012, the cost of his treatment exceeded the lifetime limit on his graduate student health plan, which is managed by Aetna. His coverage was terminated. His cancer was not.

He launched what we cancer patients sometimes refer to as an internet lemonade stand: a site called Poop Strong (a light-hearted parody of "Livestrong"). At poopstrong.org, he invited well-wishers to make a donation or buy schwag, with all proceeds going to his healthcare.

But, big news today, as his pal Kirk Caron tells Boing Boing,

In the six months between when he was dropped and when he'll be picked up by another student health plan, he's been looking at well over $100K in medical bills for his treatments. In addition to updates about his own condition and the state of Poop Strong, Arijit's been tweeting (naturally) about the state of health insurance, and recently, Aetna got involved. The conversation (as Twitter convos tend to do) sort of spirals out from the main thread between Arijit and Aetna.

That's an understatement! Arjit ended up debating directly with the CEO of Aetna, Mark Bertolini. The tl;dr: Aetna, and Mr. Bertolini, agreed in the end to cover the full extent of bills that accrued since Arjit was dropped from insurance (about $118,000).

"The system is broken," said Bertolini. "I really am trying to fix it."

Arjit is redirecting all of the donations he received the University of Arizona Cancer Center Patient Assistance Fund and The Wellness Community (Arizona), to directly assist other people with cancer who cannot pay for the life-saving medical treatments they need.

I spoke with Arjit today, and will be publishing a transcript/audio of our conversation soon. He's a really cool guy, and he has some insights from this experience that I think everyone should hear. It looks like Arjit is covered, for now, but the system is still broken. The debate over health care costs has become a political football?but for people like me and Arjit and everyone else in America who isn't in the 1%, health care costs are literally a matter of life and death. No one should suffer or die because they can't afford medical treatment. It really is that simple.

Arjit's friend Jen Wang created a Storify of the twitter exchange between Arjit, Aetna's PR reps, and Aetna's CEO. You can read this below.

Critically injured Colorado shooting victim suffers miscarriage

DENVER (Reuters) - The critically injured mother of the six-year-old girl killed in the Denver-area movie theater shooting rampage has suffered a miscarriage as a result of her injuries, her family said on Saturday.

Ashley Moser, 25, who was shot in the neck and abdomen during the July 20 midnight premier of "The Dark Knight Rises," underwent additional surgery for her injuries on Saturday morning, Moser's family said in a statement.

"Tragically, the extreme trauma she sustained also caused a miscarriage," the statement said. "Her lifetime of care will be a long road."

Moser's daughter, Veronica Moser-Sullivan, was the youngest to die in the shooting spree, which killed 12 people and wounded 58 others.

"Ashley is suffering a deep tragedy in the loss of her daughter and needs significant time to heal," the family said in an earlier statement.

The man suspected of carrying out the massacre in Aurora, 24-year-old James Holmes, is being held in solitary confinement and without bond in the Arapahoe County jail.

Holmes will appear in court on Monday, when prosecutors are expected to formally charge the former University of Colorado neuroscience graduate student with multiple charges of first degree murder.

Costas recalls Israel athletes killed at '72 Games

(AP) ? NBC's Bob Costas noted a controversy over honoring Israeli athletes killed at the Olympics 40 years during his coverage of the opening ceremony Friday but stopped short of offering his own protest.

The International Olympic Committee had declined a request to hold a moment of silence during the ceremony to acknowledge the 11 Israeli athletes and coaches killed by Palestinian gunman in Munich in 1972. Costas called that decision insensitive during an interview this month and indicated he would call for his own moment of silence when Israeli athletes marched into the Olympic Stadium Friday.

Costas' comments took his bosses by surprise. Jim Bell, executive producer of the NBC's telecast, said this week that Costas hadn't brought it up with him before the interview.

As the athletes marched in Friday, Costas said that IOC President Jacques Rogge led a moment of silence for the late Israelis this week before about 100 people at the Athlete's Village.

"Still, for many, tonight with the world watching is the true time and place to remember those who were lost and how and why they died," Costas said.

After a five-second pause, NBC cut to a commercial.

Abraham Foxman, national director of the Anti-Defamation League, which promotes Jewish causes, said he appreciated Costas bringing up the issue, though he didn't expect a moment of silence.

"He established a sense of history and decency and sensitivity, I would say, in the tradition of Jim McKay," Foxman said. The late McKay is the former ABC sportscaster who anchored coverage of the 1972 attack.

Investigating Different Money-Saving Auto Insurance Methods ...

Educating yourself about auto insurance is important. It can help you to make the best selection, which can save you money and offer peace of mind. Finding the information you need can sometimes feel confusing though. In this article we will discuss many important auto insurance terms, and provide tips that explain what those terms mean to you.

Car Insurance

When it comes to car insurance, a good tip is to pick a more affordable choice of car, especially if you have a teenager of driving age in the household. For instance, if you have a choice between a sedan or a sports car, go with the former. Insurance for a sports car is always more expensive.

When shopping around for car insurance, it?s important to make sure that all your quotes are for the same coverage limits, and options. This way, you?ll have a better understanding of what your premiums will be, and can see if companies offer the same or more discounts. If you?re getting other types of insurance through the same company, make sure these are included in the quote as well.

Since your car insurance premium is based on your past credit history and ratings, be sure you pay all your bills on time. This will keep your credit in good shape and ensure you are receiving the lowest insurance rates, because they are based on your credit report and history.

There are numerous reasons to maintain a good credit score, and one of them is because of the impact that your credit score can have on your car insurance policies. Better credit scores typically open the door for lower insurance rates, so if your credit score is likely to change, keep that in mind as you are shopping for car insurance.

If you are purchasing car insurance on a new vehicle on which there will be a lien, you should be aware that you must, by law, have full coverage. In this case, you may even want to reconsider your new car purchase because full coverage is significantly more expensive than liability alone.

Reassess what kind of car you are driving. Your car insurance premiums may be based on what kind of car you are driving. Sportier cars or SUV?s can carry higher premiums because they have more liability and they are generally more expensive to replace or fix when they have been damaged.

Be sure to ask your insurance agent about car insurance discounts for having all of your insurance coverage with him or her. When you have your car, homeowners, health and dental insurance all in one place, you may qualify for a good discount. Additionally, if you have multiple cars to insure, it may lower your rates.

As the beginning of this article mentioned, choosing the right auto insurance plan can be a challenging task for many people. However, choosing the right plan becomes much easier if we have the best advice and information available to us. Use this article?s advice and be on your way to choosing the best auto insurance for you.

Scalia Unconcerned About Money in Politics; People Aren't 'Sheep'

In a television interview set to air on C-SPAN on Sunday, Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia dismissed concerns today about there being too much money in politics.

"I forget what the figures are," he said, "but I think we spend less on our presidential campaigns each year when there is a presidential election than the country spends on cosmetics."

Asked about concerns regarding the amount of influence from corporations, Scalia said he thinks Americans are smarter than to be controlled by what they see on TV. "They're not sheep," he said.

"If you believe that we ought to go back to monarchy. That the people are such sheep that they just swallow whatever they see on television or read in the newspapers? No. The premise of democracy is that people are intelligent and can discern the true from the false. At least, when as the campaign laws require, you know who is speaking. You can't speak anonymously. You have to say, you have to identify the people that are giving the message."

Scalia made the comments to C-SPAN's Brian Lamb for an interview that will air this Sunday night at 8 p.m. ET on the cable network's Q and A program. Scalia is on a book tour for his new book Reading Law: the Interpretation of Legal Texts, which he wrote with coauthor Bryan A. Garner.

And while Scalia said he thinks C-SPAN would broadcast Supreme Court arguments in their entirety if the court were to allow cameras, the justice said he doesn't think Americans would be served by sound bytes of video they'd be more likely to see.

They'd pay attention to clips and not the entirety of arguments that the court deals with on things like patent reform and the IRS "?with all sorts of dull stuff that only a lawyer could understand and perhaps get interested," Scalia said. "If the American people saw all of that they would be educated. But they wouldn't see all of that. Your outfit would carry it all, to be sure, but what most of the American people would see would be 30 second, 15 second takeouts from our argument and those takeouts would not be characteristic of what we do. They would be uncharacteristic."

He agreed that newspapers quote decisions and opinions, but argued there is a difference where it comes to video.

"Somehow when you see it live, an excerpt pulled out of an entire, when you see it live, it has a much greater impact. No, I am sure it will mis-educate the American people, not educate," he said.

Scalia seemed to also be tiring of questions regarding leaks -sourced from within the court- that appeared in news stories in the days following the health care decision . Some outlets reported that Chief Justice John Roberts' decision to vote with the liberals to uphold the individual mandate under Congress' taxing power had caused a personal rift between Roberts and the other conservative justices.

Asked about the leaks, Scalia at first said, "I wouldn't talk about it?"

He later added that differences of opinion have not damaged relationships on the court.

"I've criticized the opinions of some of my colleagues and we have remained friends just as they have criticized my opinions and we have remained friends. Look, this is the kind of a job if you can't disagree, even disagree vehemently, on the law without taking it personally and without hating the person who's on the other side you ought to find another job. That's it," he said.

Last week Scalia was asked by CNN's s Piers Morgan, whether he had a a falling out with Justice Roberts. Scalia said the leaks were unreliable and said, "No, I haven't had a falling out with Justice Roberts."

In the C-SPAN interview Scalia also addressed complaints that he had gone outside the record in his dissent in the recent immigration case by addressing President Obama's announcement (made after the immigration case had been argued but before it was released) of a new program that allows some young undocumented immigrants who entered the US as children to stay in the country.

Scalia said he was "surprised" by the criticism which included a call from Washington Post columnist E.J. Dionne Jr. t for him to resign.

"I was surprised that anyone would have thought that the purpose for which I used the President's statement - and did not criticize the President's statement, in fact I said it might be right," he said.

Lies about past before Marrage - Talk About Marriage

Hello Forum,

I have an issue I'd like to share and would appreciate your thoughts on the matter.

I met my current wife 3 years ago. We've been married for just over 1 year and we are both divorced and I have a 5 year girl from a previous marriage. We are both from a Christian India background that have fairly traditional views, but we are both fairly liberal in our views.

We have our ups and downs but life is good.

When we first met, she asked me about me about all my past relationships and relationships after my divorce. I answered all her questions truthfully, thinking at the time if she doesn't like it, then we don't need to progress further. Honestly, I wasn't interested in her past relationships, I knew she was married for a couple of years and she must have had previous boyfriends etc, but I was interested in the present. Anyway, she still went on to tell me her husband was her first love, she had one previous boyfriend but this was in the college days and not a sexual relationship.

Anyway, we developed a relationship and a few times we had some major arguments she gave me a guilt trip that I was her second love after a failed marriage and she would never love again, making me feel guilty and being the one to patch the relationship up again. At the time I thought, this girl is head over heels for me, I liked her a lot (wasn't in love) and I don't want to be the one to ruin her life.

Anyway, recently in conversation, again she started about on of my previous flings, she then told me about 2 other serious boyfriends she had intimate relationships with, her ex-husband wasn't her first.

I asked why she lied, she told me because I would judge her and sex outside marriage wasn't something that's the norm in our culture.

Back to the present, we are in love, our relationship is good and healthy, but I can't get this lie out of my head. Also the guilt trips she put me on in the past when we were dating, I think are totally out of order.

I know that's in the past, but now I don't know if she is lying to me or not. Before this I had full trust in her. She has a lot of male friends from school / uni days, work friends, I wasn't ever suspicious of anything, but now the devil on my should isn't letting my mind be at peace.

I've talked to her about it and how I feel. She says she glad she's didn't tell me, otherwise we wouldn't be together now.

What I want is to get this out of my head, but talking to her isn't helping me or her. I end up making her feel guilty about her past relationships which is not what I want to do. She's not cheated on me, but if she didn't give me the guilt trips about being her second love then there is a 50 / 50 chance I may have split up with her when we where dating.

I don't know what to do, I want to have a clear head, but I'm an emotional rollercoaster at the moment.

Your thoughts would be appreciated.

John

Pakistan to sue British tabloid

Pakistan said Wednesday it is to sue a British newspaper that claimed to have uncovered a visa scam that could have allowed potential terrorists into the Olympic Village.

The Sun tabloid said it had busted a racket involving a politician in the eastern city of Lahore that could have given access to the London Games as part of the Pakistani contingent in return for one million rupees ($10,000).

On Wednesday, the Pakistani cabinet ordered a libel suit to be filed against The Sun. Information Minister Qamar Zaman Kaira said "dirty propaganda was unleashed against Pakistan".

"The cabinet ordered the NADRA (the National Database Registration Authority) to file a defamation suit (against the paper) after consulting the law ministry," Kaira told reporters.

He also took a swipe at the paper, Britain's biggest-selling daily, saying it "does not have a good reputation".

Pakistan's Olympic chef de mission Aqil Shah also dismissed the Sun's claims earlier this week.

The Sun said its undercover reporter was offered the chance to go to the Olympics posing as an official member of the Pakistani contingent on a two-month visa.

Pakistan's 39-strong delegation -- minus Shah -- is already in London and consists of 23 athletes and 16 officials.

A government statement later quoted the chairman of NADRA as telling the cabinet that The Sun report was "totally incorrect, false and malicious," and "seems to have been crafted to defame Pakistan".

"The cabinet directed NADRA to immediately file a libel suit against The Sun in consultation with the ministry of law and justice," the statement added.

ONR flagship event provides forum for innovative ideas

ARLINGTON, Va.The Office of Naval Research (ONR) opened online registration July 24 for its biennial Naval Science and Technology Partnership Conference, to take place this fall.

"This conference is one of ONR's signature events," said Dr. Walter F. Jones, ONR's executive director. "It provides an ideal forum to bring forth ideasthe necessary basis for advancing all naval warfighting capabilities."

The event is being held Oct. 22-24 at the Hyatt Regency Crystal City in Arlington, Va. Approximately 1,500 members of ONR's science and technology (S&T) provider network, as well as Navy and Marine Corps customers, are expected to attend.

This year's theme"Innovative Technology for Today's and Tomorrow's Warfighter"emphasizes the need to equip Sailors and Marines with every advantage the Department of the Navy can provide. To view a draft agenda, go to: http://www.onr.navy.mil/Conference-Event-ONR/science-technology-partnership/2012-partnership-conference-agenda.aspx.

The aim of the conference is to raise awareness of the naval S&T strategy and program initiatives; to present technology challenges and enable discussion of potential solutions; and to broaden ONR's partnership base to explore new ideas.

To improve access to program staff, ONR will reintroduce "Pitch a Principal," which allows members of industry and academia to request one-on-one meetings with ONR decision makers to pitch proposal ideas for possible collaboration or development.

Those interested in participating can submit a request through the conference website, and all pitches will be considered. For those selected, dates and times will be scheduled with the relevant ONR program officers.

Additionally, ONR will host a poster session for attendees to present their work in an informal setting for the purpose of generating discussion and networking.

The event's cosponsor, the American Society of Naval Engineers, will host an exposition of the cutting-edge technologies being developed at government and industry facilities around the country.
