APNewsBreak: Border agent shot man in back 3 times

Post n°11 pubblicato il 29 Marzo 2011 da hlqobvizdmu
 

A Mexican man was climbing a ladder at an Arizona-Mexico border wall when a Border Patrol agent fatally shot him three times in the back, a sheriff's spokeswoman told The Associated Press on Monday.

Cochise County sheriff's investigators have no indication that Carlos La Madrid, 19, assaulted or tried to assault the agent when he was shot March 21, said agency spokeswoman Carol Capas.

La Madrid had fled police in the Arizona border city of Douglas in a truck and drove to the border with Mexico. He was climbing a ladder and trying to cross the border, and another man atop the wall began throwing rocks at the pursuing agent, Capas said.

La Madrid was shot three times in the back and grazed on the left shoulder; he died later that day at a local hospital. The man on the wall got away.

Capas said investigators found 48 pounds of marijuana in the back of the truck La Madrid was driving, indicating that he was a drug smuggler. A 17-year-old illegal immigrant identified as Jesus Manuel Chino Lino ran from the truck was arrested on charges of drug possession and transportation charges.

Capas declined to release the agent's name, citing the ongoing investigation. She said the agent was initially placed on administrative leave, but she did not know if he was still on leave.

Border Patrol spokesman Mario Escalante said that he was unable to comment on the matter, referring questions to the FBI.

"We can't talk about any details whatsoever," Escalante said. "We never provide names of our agents involved."

FBI spokesman Manuel Johnson in Phoenix declined to comment, citing the ongoing investigation.

The FBI's investigation is focused on the alleged assault of the officer, while the sheriff's office is investigating the actual shooting.

When the sheriff's office first reported the shooting, few details were released. Capas said at the time only that "there were rocks thrown at the agent" and was unable to clarify whether La Madrid was the one throwing them.

Federer wins 1st match at Key Biscayne

Post n°10 pubblicato il 29 Marzo 2011 da hlqobvizdmu
 

Roger Federer beat Radek Stepanek to tie Pete Sampras.

Two-time champion Federer needed barely an hour Saturday to win his opening match at the Sony Ericsson Open, defeating Stepanek, 6-3, 6-3. The victory was Federer's 762nd, which ties him with Sampras for seventh place in the Open era.

"It's nice tying Pete, but he could have played for many more years," Federer said. "He could still win some matches on tour now if he wanted to.

"It's a funny stat, but it shows how long I have been around already, how much I've won all around the world and all the different surfaces. I've never missed big chunks of seasons. That's how you end up with so many wins, I guess."

Federer, who won Key Biscayne in 2005 and 2006, faced only one break point against Stepanek and has won 18 consecutive sets from the Czech.

"I was able to play solid and keep him moving and serve at a high first-serve percentage," Federer said. "All in all, I'm really pleased."

No. 13-seeded Mikhail Youzhny drubbed Yen-hsun Lu 6-1, 6-0, and No. 15 Jo-Wilfried Tsonga beat Teymuraz Gabashvili 6-3, 6-7 (3), 6-3. No. 26 Juan Ignacio Chela lost to Feliciano Lopez 7-6 (3), 3-6, 6-4.

In women's play, 2006 champion Svetlana Kuznetsova lost to Peng Shuai 6-3, 6-1.

Federer improved to 19-3 this year, with all three losses to Novak Djokovic. They could meet in the final next Sunday.

Federer slipped from second to third in the world rankings after losing to eventual champion Djokovic last week in the semifinals at Indian Wells.

House votes BLM budget cut over wild horse dispute

Post n°8 pubblicato il 17 Febbraio 2011 da hlqobvizdmu
 

RENO, Nev. – The U.S. House has approved an amendment on a voice vote that would cut $2 million from the Bureau of Land Management's budget in protest over the agency's wild horse roundups.

Indiana Republican Dan Burton says his amendment is intended to send a signal to agency officials that most Americans want the mustangs treated more humanely on public lands across the West.

Virginia Democrat Jim Moran says Congress passed a law 40 years ago to protect the horses on the range, but that today there are more than 40,000 in holding pens and only 30,000 in the wild.

Wyoming Republican Cynthia Lummis was among those opposed. She says the well-meaning horse advocates are "loving the creatures to death" by fueling overpopulation of herds that damage the rangeland they depend upon.

X-rays reveal why Van Gogh's yellows turn brown

WASHINGTON (AFP) – International scientists have discovered a chemical reaction that has caused the once-vivid yellows in Vincent van Gogh's paintings to turn brown, according to a study published in the United States.

A super-sensitive microscopic X-ray has revealed a chemical reaction taking place where the paint meets the varnish, triggered by sunlight which causes yellow to fade, said the findings published Monday in the journal Analytical Chemistry.

"This type of cutting edge research is crucial to advance our understanding of how paintings age and should be conserved for future generations," said Ella Hendriks of the Van Gogh Museum Amsterdam.

The X-ray from the European Synchrotron Radiation Facility in Grenoble, France also showed a reduction in chromium "was especially prominent in the presence of chemical compounds which contained barium and sulphur."

That observation led scientists to believe that "Van Gogh's technique of blending white and yellow paint might be the cause of the darkening of his yellow paint," the study said.

The best way to avoid such deterioration is to shield vulnerable artwork from ultraviolet rays and sunlight, the study authors said.

"Our X-ray beam is 100 times thinner than a human hair, and it reveals subtle chemical processes over equally minuscule areas," said Marine Cotte, a scientist with the research institute in Grenoble.

"Making this possible has opened the door to a whole new world of discovery for art historians and conservators."

The research was led by Koen Janssens of Antwerp University in Belgium. Letizia Monico, an Italian chemist, headed the experiments. Scientists from Italy, France and the Netherlands were also part of the team.

Van Gogh, known for his bold, tempestuous brushwork and having cut off his own ear, died at Auvers-sur-Oise near Paris in July 1890 after shooting himself in the chest.
