Mon. - Bou Meng walks into a big open room, sits down on the floor and points to a number, which is stenciled on the wall. Number 13. It was his prison number and the spot on the floor where he says he was shackled in Cambodia's infamous Tuol Sleng Prison. He was one of the survivors from the tour chard. Bou, an artist, was sent off to work in the paddy fields. One day in 1977, he was told he was being moved away from farm life. "I was supposed to move to the Royal University of Fine Art, but instead I was brought to S-21, also known as Tuol Sleng Prison." "The first thing I saw was the people that had long hair to the waist. Their eyes were sunken and their bodies were only bone and skin. That’s was scarry.

6-27-11 Today I read an article with the name of Turkish gay pride march draws thousands. I read that thousands of Turks marched through Istanbul in a demonstration calling for improved rights and greater social acceptance for the country's homosexual community. Activists say the annual Turkish Gay Pride Parade, now in its ninth year, is the only march of its kind. In a majority-Muslim country. Several thousand supporters of lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender rights carried signs and rainbow flags as they made their way down one of Istanbul's busiest pedestrian thoroughfares. Gay rights organizations have accused Turkey's government of expressing hostile attitudes toward the country's homosexual community. Tear gas from the same demonstration wafted over parts of the crowd, causing the march to stall briefly as people took cover to stave off its effects.
Today i read about,James "Whitey" Bulger left Boston 16 years ago in the dark of night, a brash high-echelon FBI snitch one step ahead of a racketeering indictment. He returned last week under the glare of camera lights, a stooped 81-year-old man in shackles.
The reputed Irish mob boss who took Osama bin Laden's place at the top of the FBI's Most Wanted list seemed meek, almost harmless, as he stood in a federal courtroom clutching a stack of charges as thick as a small-town phone book.
Today I read about a teen who died taking drugs. A teenager died after the recreational use of a drug often used to treat severe pain in cancer patients and that is 100-times more powerful than morphine, and investigators are still trying to figure out just how she got that drug.

Casey Anthony, filed a motion asking Orange County Chief Judge Belvin Perry Jr. to reconsider an earlier decision and declare Florida's death penalty law unconstitutional. Because Florida's death penalty procedure is unconstitutional, the death penalty should be precluded as a potential sentence," according to the motion. Anthony, 25, is charged with seven counts, including first-degree murder, aggravated child abuse and misleading police, in her daughter's death. Prosecutors are seeking the death penalty against her.

The Supreme Court has struck down a California law that would have banned selling "violent" video games to children, a case balancing free speech rights with consumer protection. The 7-2 ruling Monday is a victory for video game makers and sellers, who said the ban which had yet to go into effect would extend too far. They say the existing nationwide, industry-imposed, voluntary rating system is an adequate screen for parents to judge the apprThe state says it has a legal obligation to protect children from graphic interactive images when the industry has failed to do so.opriateness of computer game content. "As a means of assisting concerned parents it (the law) is seriously overinclusive because it abridges the First Amendment rights of young people whose parents (and aunts and uncles) think violent video games are a harmless pastime," wrote Justice Antonin Scalia for the majority. In dissent, Justice Stephen Breyer framed the law's intent differently. At issue is how far constitutional protections of free speech and expression, as well as due process, can be applied to youngsters. Critics of the content-based restrictions say the government would in effect be engaged in the censorship business, using "community standards" to evaluate artistic and commercial content.
Monday. Today I read about the Casey Anthony case. Casey’s defense is trying to persuade the chief judge to declare the Florida’s death penalty unconstitutional. I am watching the case live right now, and from what I have heard, prosecutors are really trying to bring the death penalty upon her.
Mon. -- Bou Meng is shackled up in in Cambodia's infamous Tuol Sleng Prison. He said that they had a number meaning that his not really nobody. They had him sitting in a spot on the floor. They say that most of the prisoners that get locked up get often killed, but Bou was one lucky survivor that had that had the mirical to get out. Led by the late Pol Pot, the regime was responsible for the deaths of millions of ordinary Cambodians during a four-year reign of terror that was eventually halted in 1979 by invading Vietnamese forces. In 1975, the Khmer Rouge ordered everyone out of the capital Phnom Penh and other cities in Cambodia to work in the countryside as farm laborers.

6-28-11 Today I read an article with the name of Afghan-bound oil tankers attacked. I read that two oil tankers were carrying fuel for NATO-led troops in Afghanistan. I read that they were blown up and set on fire in northwestern Pakistan. Many of the attacks are blamed on militants fighting NATO troops. In one incident, police believe the driver removed oil and sold it on the black market before setting it on fire, according to Officer Aman Sher at the Mamraiz police station.

Today Tuesday Nearly three-quarters of the mountain snowpack contributing to high water levels along the Missouri River system has melted, but significant flooding remains a concern in seven states from Montana to Missouri, according to the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers and the National Weather Service. The Corps of Engineers is sending record amounts of water into the Missouri from reservoirs filled with extraordinary amounts of melting snow and spring rain. That has been creating flooding conditions lasting for weeks across much of the massive river basin, which includes parts of 10 states. The National Weather Service reports significant flooding is occurring in Montana, North Dakota, South Dakota, Iowa, Nebraska, Kansas and Missouri .
Tuesday. Today I read about the Casey Anthony case. The defense is trying to attack the man who found the body. Baez said that the guy had a lot to earn from finding the body. Kronk, also denied that he had called his son a few days before discovering the body saying that he would become famous. Also, the defense stated that Kronk said he needed a thousand dollars to fix his truck a day before finding the body. I am also watching the trial live, and they have who I believe is Kronk on the stand.

Residents of flooded Minot, North Dakota, remained under orders to limit their water use Tuesday, a day after rushing floodwaters apparently broke a main water line, a city spokesman said. Utility crews were able to wade to the site of the break and divert the water flow, but it would likely be Tuesday night or Wednesday before they could install a new line to restore normal flow, said Dean Lenertz, a spokesman for the city. About a third of Minot's population of nearly 36,000 has been evacuated due to record flooding from the Souris River, which bisects the city.

A federal judge ordered the government to respond by Tuesday to a legal challenge against a decision to forcibly medicate Arizona shooting suspect Jared Lee Loughner in a federal prison.
In the order dated Monday, U.S. District Judge Larry Alan Burns said the government must answer the emergency motion by lawyers representing Loughner that contends forcing him to take mind-altering psychotropic drugs against his will violates his rights.
The lawyers conceded in their motion that they were uncertain if officials at the U.S. Medical Center for Federal Prisoners in Springfield, Missouri, where Loughner was transferred in late May to try to restore his mental competency, had started administering the drugs.
However, they said prison officials held a deficient hearing process and used faulty reasoning in deciding to drug Loughner against his will.
Today I read about The man Los Angeles police have said is a suspect in the near-fatal beating of a San Francisco Giants fan outside Dodger Stadium has been sent to state prison in San Diego for an unrelated parole violation. Corrections officials said Tuesday that Giovanni Ramirez, who was arrested last month in the attack on Bryan Stow, will serve 10 months at the Richard J. Donovan Correctional Facility in Otay Mesa, after investigators found a handgun at the Los Angeles apartment where he was staying.
Today I read about China’s high speed rail. The shiny CRH380 model we rode serves the new 1,318-kilometer (819-mile) Beijing-Shanghai High-Speed Railway -- completed in just three years and cuts journey time between China's political center and commercial hub in half to under five hours. It gives people more options to move where the jobs are, and separates people from freight. Now the world's second-largest economy, and flush with cash, China has been busy purchasing foreign technologies and constructing new rail lines. It boasts more than 8,300 kilometers (5,100 miles) of high-speed routes, turning a non-existent network to the world's longest in a few short years.

Today I read about the International Criminal Court is still trying to link Libyan leader Moammar Gadhafi, his son and his brother-in-law to rapes, but it does not yet have enough evidence to do so, prosecutor Luis Moreno-Ocampo said Tuesday. It has evidence that rapes have taken place in Libya's civil war, he said, but he cannot prove Gadhafi ordered them. The court issued arrest warrants Monday for Gadhafi, his son Saif al-Islam Gadhafi, and his brother-in-law Abdullah al-Sanussi on other charges. Saif Al-Islam Gadhafi is a close adviser to his father. His arrest warrant came two days after his 39th birthday. Al-Sanussi serves as Gadhafi's head of intelligence. The warrants are "for crimes against humanity," including murder and persecution, "allegedly committed across Libya" from February 15 through "at least" February 28, "through the state apparatus and security forces," the court said in a news release.
The Intercontinental Hotel is attacked by a group of bombers. The Taliban claims responsibility. "We're continuing to hear small-arms fire right now," witness says. The incident comes as Afghan National Police and Army forces are to be increased to 352,000.

The hotel is located on a hill on the outskirts of Kabul and is typically protected by heavy security.
Tuesday- Today I read about Iran successfully test-fired 14 missiles during military drills. Airing video of one of the facilities as it began a new round of military exercises, Iran announced Monday that it has built its first ballistic missile silos. The hardened, underground launch sites will allow Iranian commanders to fire missiles more quickly, Iran's state-run Press TV reported. A military statement carried by the official Islamic Republic News Agency said the silos were capable of launching long-range missiles.

Arizona police confiscated nearly $9 million worth of illegal drugs during a routine traffic stop. A 2005 Nissan Armada was pulled over Friday night on state route 347 just south of the city of Maricopa. It was carrying nearly 200 pounds of methamphetamine and more than 100 pounds of black tar heroin. An investigation by the sheriff's department revealed the truck was being used to transport the drugs after they were smuggled into the United States through the Mexico desert. Jessica Velasco, 28, who was driving the SUV when it was stopped, told deputies that the drugs belonged to her husband. She remains jailed on several charges including possession of a dangerous drug, possession of a dangerous drug for sale, transportation of a dangerous drug, possession of a narcotic drug, and possession of a narcotic drug for sale. The search continues for the passenger, a Hispanic male, who fled the scene after the traffic stop.
Today I read about how Casey Anthony's father squared off again with his daughter's defense attorney in her capital murder trial Wednesday, acknowledging statements he made to law enforcement but bristling at what he called efforts by the defense to "spin" them. Later in his testimony, George Anthony broke down and sobbed on the stand discussing his slain granddaughter Caylee and his 2009 suicide attempt. Under questioning by defense attorney Jose Baez, George Anthony agreed that he told police in a July 24, 2008 statement that his daughter's trunk smelled like human decomposition -- a smell he was familiar with from his own law enforcement experience in Ohio. He testified Wednesday he was 100% sure he had recognized that smell. "I'm not going to lie about that," he said. He also said he told law enforcement that day that his daughter "lives on the edge," and "takes things as far as she can take them," and, just after his 2-year-old granddaughter Caylee went missing, that he told police something had happened to the little girl and that his daughter was lying. Baez attempted to suggest that George Anthony was "throwing (Casey Anthony) under the bus" to police through his statements.
Two police officers were among the dead in the attack that raged into Wednesday's early hours at the Hotel Inter-Continental, according to the Afghan Interior Ministry. Officials described the eight others as civilians.Afghan National Army and Coalition force's had a fast reaction and thanks to air support of the NATO forces, eight suicide bombers were killed. As many as three of the attackers did not blow themselves up but were fatally shot. Casualty figures could rise, Mohammad Zahir, chief of criminal investigations for Kabul police. "We are still searching the hotel; the death number may increase." The Taliban says suicide attackers entered the hotel after killing security guards.

Today I read about, Saiz Ahmed, an American Ph.D. student in Kabul studying Afghan legal history, had just eaten dinner and returned to his fourth-floor room at the Hotel Inter-Continental when he heard odd noises. His room was pitch black because the electricity was out, and he did not initially recognize the sounds. But the noises got louder, and he soon realized that it was not construction.

Teenager Sarfraz Shah was shot and killed by Rangers providing security at a public park this month. A chilling video of the incident was played repeatedly on national television and became the latest in a series of human rights violations that horrified Pakistanis and eroded public confidence in security agencies. In the video, an unarmed Shah begs not to be shot. He pleads with the men carrying automatic rifles. "I am helpless," he cries. "Please do not fire."

Saiz Ahmed, an American Ph.D. student in Kabul studying Afghan legal history, had just eaten dinner and returned to his fourth-floor room at the Hotel Inter-Continental when he heard odd noises. His room was pitch black because the electricity was out, and he did not initially recognize the sounds. "I thought it was construction," he said, recalling that a sign he had seen earlier in the day on the elevator apologizing to guests for work being done. But the noises got louder, and he soon realized that it was not construction. "It was clear that people were shooting from inside the building -- a number of people I didn't know where -- and from outside," he said. "I didn't know who was who." Over the three or four hours, the gunfire was punctuated by an explosion every 45 minutes or so, he said. "They might have been people blowing themselves up," he said, adding he heard six or seven such blasts.

A grief expert also testified about risky behaviors that young people engage in, after they lost someone significant. They think maybe that is why Casey is acting how she is. However, no expression in Casey’s face was shown during trial.

Power struggles between drug gangs have led to a surge in homicides in Puerto Rico this year. Police statistics show the number of homicides so far this year in the U.S. island commonwealth is 16% higher than last year's figure for the same time period. We believe what may be happening here is that struggle for power or the take over of power at certain drug points. There have been 526 homicides so far this year, compared to 452 during the same period in 2010. The surge in violence has led to an upswing of fear among residents, including members of Puerto Rico's lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender community. After three openly gay people were killed earlier this month in a one-week period, the Washington-based National Gay and Lesbian Task Force decried what it called an "epidemic of anti-LGBT violence" in Puerto Rico.
today i read about The mother of a college student who died of alcohol poisoning at Cornell University is suing Sigma Alpha Epsilon fraternity for $25 million in a lawsuit that alleges fraternity pledges bound her son's wrists and ankles and forced him to drink alcohol in a hazing ritual on the night of his death.
George Desdunes, 19, was a sophomore member of the fraternity when he died in February. The wrongful death lawsuit, which was filed by Marie Lourdes Andre in Brooklyn Supreme Court on Monday, alleges he was kidnapped by a group of Sigma Alpha Epsilon pledges and forced to drink alcohol and other substances while being quizzed about the fraternity.
"The kidnapping and ensuing events were part of a long-standing fraternity ritual that was authorized and encouraged by SAE chapter officers and members," reads the complaint.
He was then left on a couch in the fraternity house where he lived, where he was found by a housekeeper the next morning. Desdunes, an aspiring doctor, had a blood alcohol content of 0.409% -- more than five times the legal limit -- when he was found, according to the lawsuit.

Today I read about The wildfire roaring through New Mexico near Los Alamos is not over, but much of the danger has been shifted from that community. The fire steadily moves north, which could potentially impact the Santa Clara Pueblo. "I saw what was happening in Santa Clara," said Los Alamos Fire Chief Doug Tucker Friday. "Knowing that we went through it -- it really hurts.“ Los Alamos citizens are still not allowed to repopulate the town and no date has been given as to when they can return.

Rami Abdulrahman of the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights told CNN that along with the six dead in Homs, two were killed in al-Qadam and another in Daraya -- both Damascus suburbs. Abdulrahman said the death toll since mid-March is more than 1,360 civilians and more than 340 army and security personnel.

Thursday. Today I read about a man who was murdered in a National City apartment. This happened by 18th street, and F avenue. The 56-year-old Hispanic male was found dead in his apartment, and died from a bullet to the chest. An arrest was made by a S.W.A.T. team, and the man’s name was Jesus.

Friday. Today I read about the actor Daniel Radcliffe. Daniel confessed that he became reliant on alcohol for a long time. Daniel confessed that he began drinking around the time when Harry Potter: and the Half Blood Prince was filmed. Daniel stated that this was ruining his life, and that the reason he began to drink, was to deal with all of the fame. However, he said that he stopped, and now he will try to have a regular relationship with his girlfriend. He also said he prefers a quiet way of life like reading and being at home, he said there is nothing wrong with that.
