randomly throwing grenades at sheep herders and the infamous puppy toss with David Motari.
Juxtaposed against a hollow and hypocritical Presidential address this is mandatory watching for every American citizen.

War of words echos Mideast rockets
Gaza conditions 'at 40-year low'
Gaza's humanitarian situation is at its worst since Israel
occupied the territory in 1967, say UK-based human rights and development groups.
Gaza's humanitarian situation is at its worst since Israel
occupied the territory in 1967, say UK-based human rights and development groups.
They include Amnesty International, Save the Children, Cafod, Care International and Christian Aid.
They criticise Israel's blockade on Gaza as illegal collective punishment which fails to deliver security.
Israel says its military action and other measures are lawful and needed to stop rocket attacks from Gaza.
Israel pulled its troops and settlers out of the Gaza Strip in 2005, but retained control over Gaza's airspace
and coastline, and over its own border with the territory.
It tightened its blockade in January amid a surge in rocket attacks by Palestinian militants in Gaza.
'Disaster'
The groups' report, Gaza Strip: A Humanitarian Implosion, says the blockade has dramatically
worsened levels of poverty and unemployment, and has led to deterioration in education and
health services.

Let's hear it for "doctor control"
"According to statistics provided by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, there is an interesting correlation between accidental deaths caused by guns and those caused by doctors. There are 700,000 physicians in the U.S. that cause 120,000 accidental deaths each year. Accidental death per physician is 0.171 percent. There are 80 million gun owners in the U.S. responsible for 1,500 accidental gun deaths per year for a percentage of accidental deaths per gun owner of 0.0000188. Doctors are 9,000 times more dangerous to the public health than gun owners."

Diebold Rejects Takeover Bid
Tuesday, March 4, 2008 3:20 AM
North Canton, Ohio, based Diebold Inc. may find it impossible to resist a $2.63 billion buyout offer by United Technologies Corp., which is aggressively seeking to expand its security business in Asia, observers said Monday.
United Technologies on Sunday offered $40 a share, a 67 percent premium over Diebold's closing price Friday. Diebold shares climbed $14.72, or 61 percent Monday to $38.84. United Technologies shares fell $1.11 to $69.40.
Diebold turned down the bid Monday, calling it opportunistic, and urged its shareholders to take no action.

12:15 a.m. Update from Cuyahoga County
Our observer on the scene of the ballot counting process in Cuyahoga County describes it as "pure chaos."
Ballot boxes are being thrown around the warehouse. A data card fell out of a handicapped voting machine and went sliding across the concrete floor. Vans holding ballots from precincts are lined up outside in a line several blocks long. Ballot boxes are coming in without security stickers. Officials are predicting 12 more hours of counting in Cuyahoga County.
We also have reports that the board "hired" a group of kids to carry the ballot boxes into the warehouse, but the kids are leaving because it's late so the boxes are only 50% in the room. 200 precincts aren’t even in the building. source: ohiogop.blogs.com
Brunner botches Election Day ballot security
From The Plain Dealer:
In a statement, the Ohio Republican Party called on the Cuyahoga County prosecutor to investigate an apparent violation of state election law in the collection and transportation of ballots during polling hours.
According to Ohio Revised Code Section 3505.25(E), ballots are required to be transported by "members of different political parties," the statement said. But county elections officials now acknowledge those guidelines were not followed, it stated.
The chairman of the Cuyahoga County Board of Elections acknowledged to reporters that it appears ballots were not transported today in accordance with state law, the GOP said.
"This is a serious breach of ballot security," said Ohio Republican Party Deputy Chairman Kevin DeWine." Jennifer Brunner took full responsibility for implementing these policies in Cuyahoga County, and she failed to follow through on the basic procedures for protecting the vote. An investigation of this neglect is critical to restoring voter confidence."
Attached to the GOP's e-mailed new release were five photographs that the GOP statement said " demonstrate the unsecure ballot collection process, including loosely taped cardboard boxes, the chaotic ballot counting process and ballot collection forms clearly indicating Republicans were not involved in the transportation of ballots.
The statement said that a Republican observer at the central count location reports 10% of the boxes of ballots arriving are showing stickers not affixed over the slots (meaning ballots could conceivably be inserted). Officials have cut down the access to the observers and they are not allowed in and around the process.
Few voted at places kept open after 7:30 p.m.
Posted by Mark Rollenhagen March 04, 2008 22:55PM
Secretary of State Jennifer Brunner said just five voters cast ballots as a result of a judge's order to reopen some Cleveland polling places until 9 p.m. She said the order was issued, at the request of the Barack Obama campaign, shortly after 8 p.m. and 10 polling locations were able to be reopened.
She defended the voting on Cleveland's East Side, despite the complaints from the Obama campaign.
"I think that has more to do with the legitimacy of the complaint," Brunner said.
She described the Obama campaign's allegations as "somewhat sketchy" and said it appeared that the campaign picked precincts where they could "pad votes."
Brunner said she had no information to indicate that any Cuyahoga precincts ran out of ballots.
She suggested the Obama lawsuit caused unecessary problems in Cleveland.
"Cuyahoga County for once was going smoothly," Brunner said.

Cuyahoga County voters complain ballot secrecy was compromised
Posted by By Patrick O’Donnell March 05, 2008 00:13AM
How secret was your ballot Tuesday?
Well, that depends.
Many Cuyahoga County voters complained their privacy was compromised as they turned in their ballots. Many voters had no way to shield the filled-out ballot from spying eyes, whether they were poll workers or other voters in line.
"My ballot was exposed for the 20 feet I carried it back to the precinct table, easily read by the poll worker who removed the receipt, and easily seen, or even photographed by a cell phone camera, by others," said Charles Hoppel of Broadview Heights, who said his wife filed a complaint with poll workers.
In Cleveland's Tremont neighborhood, voters were told by poll workers not to fold their ballots, but many -- concerned about privacy -- did anyway or at least tried to shield their exposed ballots before depositing them into the security box.
Ohio law calls for all voting to be done in "absolute secrecy" and to be set up so "no person can see or know for whom any other elector has voted or is voting, except an elector who is assisting a voter."
Laughlin McDonald, director of the Voting Rights Project of the American Civil Liberties Union, said he is not familiar with the ballots used, but stressed that ballots should be private.
"I think a secret ballot is very important and critical," he said from Atlanta. "If people know how you vote, they can retaliate against you."
Ballots can be easily shielded by popping them into a sleeve that hides the markings. But that differed widely from polling place to polling place. Some voters received sleeves with their ballots. Others had to ask for them. Others simply uneasily lined up without them.
Jane Platten, director of the Cuyahoga County Board of Elections, said each polling place should have had sleeves for voters who wanted them. Procedures did not call for voters to receive one, but anyone who asked should have gotten one, she said.
Poll workers at two Cleveland polling places said they started the day giving them out. But few voters wanted them and others had trouble using them. So poll workers just waited for voters to ask for them.
But some voters, like Rodney Tharps and Kay Van Ho, who voted at two different locations in Euclid, just shrugged it off.
"I figured nobody could look at it," Van Ho said.
Plain Dealer reporters Rachel Dissell, Michael Scott, Joe Guillen, Joe Wagner and Mike Sangiacomo contributed to this story.
Do you know where your ballot is?
Jennifer Brunner's board of elections in Cuyahoga County doesn't. From a ORP press release:
An official observer at the Cuyahoga County Board of Elections confirmed early this morning that the Board is currently searching for approximately 20 missing ballot boxes.
The observer reports that election workers are leaving their posts and going home, further delaying the final count. The scene at the Board of Election tabulation warehouse has been described as "pure chaos."
"Last November, Cuyahoga County was essentially done with its entire ballot count by 1 a.m.," said Ohio Republican Party Deputy Chairman Kevin DeWine. "We're being told it could take another four hours to get to a final count. This is an embarrassing failure for Jennifer Brunner."
According to the Cleveland Plain Dealer, "about 99 percent of the county's precincts were counted by 1 a.m. early Wednesday morning," the day after the election last November. After Secretary of State Jennifer Brunner's forced changed to optical scan ballots, the Cuyahoga County Board of Elections could only report results for fewer than 50 percent of precincts by 1 a.m. today.

Lebanon Orders Army to 'Achieve High Combat Readiness'
There are more signs of a wider regional war as Tears for Lebanon (TFL) and Lebanon's National News Agency (NNA) are reporting Army Commander General Michel Suleiman has ordered his officers to "achieve high combat readiness of their units to confront all expected possibilities, especially defending the southern land, maintain domestic security and stability." General Suleiman was issuing the directives to his senior commanders of Lebanon's most important units from his headquarters at Yarze a suburb east of Beirut. This is definitely within the time-table of Tehran as most of Lebanon's military has close relations with Damascus-Hezbollah. He said the army's "basic duty is to prevent the Israeli enemy from occupying Lebanese territories or attempting to use them as a passage to launch an aggression against Arab brethren."

Solon polling place runs out of Democratic ballots
Posted by Plain Dealer Staff March 04, 2008 21:02PM
Steve Greenwald, 41, of Solon, said he and dozens of others could not vote at his precinct at Grantwood Golf Course because the precinct ran out of Democratic ballots. Poll workers would not allow the voters to use ballots from other precincts, or provisional ballots, he said.
Instead, they promised more ballots would be there in about five minutes. That was about 5:45 p.m., when he arrived to vote. He left at 7 p.m. without voting.
"I'm very upset," he said. "They should have been way better prepared, especially when they knew coming into this that they were going to have a high voter turn-out due to the tight Democratic race."
The folks kept coming, he said, and they gathered in the golf course ballroom, complaining to each other and spouses on cell phones. He heard that other precincts also ran out of ballots and that the Solon poll workers had told the Board of Elections around 3 p.m. that they needed more ballots.
"It's very disheartening that you try to vote, especially on an evening with an ice storm," Greenwald said. "You try to exercise your constitutional right, and you can't do it."

Albany Times Union
Tuesday, March 4, 2008
ALBANY-- The cops in the marked patrol car had circled through West Hill a couple times keeping an eye on their female target.
They were part of the Street Drug Unit, an aggressive squad assigned to help rid Albany's neighborhoods of drug dealers and addicts blamed for much of the city's problems.
It was early evening and already dark when the patrol car's emergency lights flashed in the rearview mirror of Lisa Shutter's Mitsubishi sedan on Quail Street, just off Central Avenue.
Police records show the officers called out a "Signal 38" to alert a dispatcher they were onto something suspicious and about to pull someone over. They would later write in a report that they had pulled her over for "failure to signal," although no ticket was issued, according to police records shared with the Times Union.
The actions of police in the minutes that followed would end in controversy rather than with an arrest. They would also leave Shutter, a 28-year-old single mother from Ravena, shaken and angry after one of the officers allegedly inserted his finger into Shutter's vagina on a public street during an apparent search for drugs.

Video appears to show Marine abusing puppy
(CNN) -- The military is investigating a "shocking and deplorable" YouTube video that seems to show a Marine throwing a puppy off a rocky cliff.
YouTube.com removed the video for violating the Web site's terms of use.
The black-and-white puppy makes a yelping sound as it flies through the air.
"That's mean, that was mean," one companion says off-camera, addressing the alleged puppy thrower by his last name. The fate of the animal is not known.
The Marine is identified on the video and in other Internet postings as a lance corporal stationed at Marine Corps Base Hawaii in Kaneohe.
It's not clear where the video was shot, although the man who appears to throw the puppy and another Marine are in full combat gear with helmets.
YouTube.com had taken down the video by 12:30 p.m. ET Tuesday "due to terms of use violation," according to a banner on the Web site.
"This is a shocking and deplorable video that is contrary to the high standards that we set for every Marine," Marine Corps spokesman Maj. Chris Perrine said at a news conference Monday night.

New York Times staff photographer Keith Meyers loved to tackle rigorous assignments, like flying in military jets and scuba diving with astronauts in training.
“He was almost hyper in terms of his energy level,” says friend and fellow Times photographer Fred Conrad. “He could run circles around people.”
On September 11, 2001, Meyers cut short a vacation and raced to New York to help with coverage at Ground Zero. Four days later, Meyers climbed aboard a Coast Guard helicopter to shoot a series of historic pictures, the first aerial news photos of the still-burning World Trade Center site.
As he leaned out of the helicopter, Meyers could feel the rising smoke.
“It was like breathing fire, and I could feel my skin tingling and burning,” he says. A doctor later told him he probably had been exposed to chemicals as caustic as Drano.
Over the next two years, Meyers’s health deteriorated. While covering the New York City blackout in 2003, he suffered several asthma attacks. His energy level diminished, and twice he nodded off behind the wheel while waiting at tollbooths.

Sounds Like We've Got A Lawsuit Coming From The Obama Camp
Submitted by Jerid on Tue, 03/04/2008 - 3:25pm.
Sure sounds like the Obama campaign is gearing up for a lawsuit to me. And for the record, numerous election irregularities and party affiliation problems have been reported at BSB today. From Paul Tewes, the Obama Ohio campaign manager.
“Our campaign’s goal today is to ensure that any registered voter in the state of Ohio can go to the polls and cast their ballot for their candidate of choice without interference. We understand that the Clinton campaign may want to depress turnout because Barack Obama has closed a 20-point gap over the course of this month as voters across the state got to know him.”
“It has been the hallmark of the Democratic party to educate and protect the rights of voters. If the Clinton campaign disagrees with that principle, they should say so today.”
“We have received reports from around the state of independents and Republicans who chose to vote in the Democratic primary receiving issue only or Republican ballots instead of the Democratic ballot they were entitled to. We have also had reports that the voter ID requirements have been misstated at various locations, causing some voters to be turned away. “
“ We will take action when necessary to ensure that all eligible voters are able to cast their votes and to have their votes counted.”

Bomb scare, power outage stalls vote temporarily in Lake County
Posted by Michael Scott and John Caniglia March 04, 2008 11:17AM
Categories: At the polls
It's been hardly an ordinary primary day so far for Lake County Elections Director Jan Clair -- who has encountered a power failure and a bomb threat already.
Clair said that around 9:30 a.m., she was rushed by police escort to Madison Middle School, where the polls had been abandoned after an anonymous bomb threat was phoned in.
"Fortunately, once they took dogs and the bomb squad through building, voting resumed around 10:55 a.m.," Clair said. "No voter was disenfranchised. Our poll workers took down names and phone numbers of those who showed up and couldn't vote, but each one said they would be able to return to vote later."
She said a power failure in North Perry, possibly due to ice accumulation on power lines, briefly stalled voting there this morning,
Elsewhere around Northeast Ohio:
• In Geauga County: Director Arch Kimbrew said morning turnout has convinced him that his projection of a 45-percent turnout will be too low. "There are a lot of Democrats out and at every polling place," he said.
One observer in a largely Republican precinct in Chester Township noted that nearly 50 percent more Democrats than Republicans had voted this morning.
• In Portage County: Director Lois Enlow also said her estimate of a 40 percent turnout would be way too low. "We've been very, very busy," Enlow said.
She said the county had "the usual primary problems, but nothing major."
"I had one young man very angry with me because he voted issues-only and wanted to know where the candidates' names were after he cast his ballot," Enlow said. "Some people just don't always know what a primary really is."
• In Lorain County: Many voters said they liked the machines better than the paper ballots. They said they were faster and easier to read.
There were no lines in Oberlin, where some Oberlin College students waited as long as eight hours to vote in 2004. Students said many of their classmates took advantage of absentee voting or voted early.
By 9 a.m., eight voters were turned away at Paul Dunbar Elementary School on West 28th Street. Poll workers said the Board of Elections moved a precinct in November. Some voters continue show up to vote, but the poll workers are unsure of their new polling place.
The Board of Elections said they notified the residents of the change, but some voters told poll workers they never received the notice.
VOTING SUCKED 4 ME TODAY IN OHIO
I voted by paper ballot here in Cols, 43205. The "ballot" box was handmade with a slit put in to a bottom of a regular type cardboard box.
It had NO SEAL on it what so ever.
I asked about it and the lead worker told me, "Well we were in a rush". He ended up putting a twisty tie like thing on the box and said "ok its sealed". Outrageous. I called the Sec St, and Franklin County B of E and reported it. They took my name and contact info and was told by both entities that they would call me back.
Guess what neither did.
The employees were clueless, untrained, except for one guy who had to help the rest out with every single step. There was no privacy for the people using the machines, the room, in the Columbus "Douglas" school was cramped, loud and just a mess.
I for one am pissed off!

Israeli official says comment on "holocaust" was manipulated
JERUSALEM: An Israeli official who sparked an uproar by using a word that can mean "holocaust" to describe what Israel might do to the Gaza Strip said Sunday his comment had been manipulated by the media but acknowledged he could have chosen another term.
In a radio interview Friday discussing Palestinian rocket fire at Israel and Israel's military response, Deputy Defense Minister Matan Vilnai said, "As the rocket fire grows, and the range increases ... they are bringing upon themselves a greater 'shoah' because we will use all our strength in every way we deem appropriate."

Buffett defends sovereign wealth funds

Warren Buffett has hit out at rising US opposition to investments by sovereign wealth funds, saying their recent buying spree was a function of misguided trade policies and not “some nefarious plot by foreign governments”.
In his closely-watched annual letter to shareholders, the 77-year-old billionaire investor revealed he had chosen four unnamed candidates to replace him as chief investment officer of Berkshire Hathaway, his conglomerate, when he dies or steps down. Berkshire has a $140bn pool of investments.
