| muvdigital.net Overruling the Pentagon on 2 of its biggest requests, a commission reviewing base closings dicated to keep open a shipyard and a submarine base in Colonial that military planners wished to shut down.The Base Realignment and Closure Commission voted to shrink the Red River Army Depot in eastern Texas, where 2,500 civilian jobs would've been lost, rather than close it, reports CBS News Correspondent Dan Raviv. The commissioners did vote to close Fort Monmouth in New Jersey, but an amendment tells the Army to protect the research work there for that war on terrorism. The commission dicated to save the Portsmouth shipyard at Kittery, Maine, and Submarine Base New London in Connecticut, two economic engines of the region and the subjects of intense lobbying in order to save them.In another reversal, the commission made a decision to close Naval Air Station Brunswick in Maine, rather than drastically reduce forces there, arguing that savings could be realized more quickly if it was power down altogether. CBS News Correspondent Barry Bagnato reports on the efforts of a community near Philadelphia to save its military base. Within the last four months, the nine-member panel has expressed worries that Defense Secretary Donald H. Rumsfeld's proposal would leave the Northeast unprotected.Though the decisions to spare the two submarine base and the shipyard was somewhat of a surprise. Lobbyists and some lawmakers had privately speculated that this panel would save one base but scrap the opposite.In the end, the panel sided with community groups and lawmakers through the Northeast."This is a sweet victory," said Sen. Judd Gregg, R-N.H., among Congress members, former President Carter and a dozen admirals who had urged the commission to save lots of the Connecticut base."If we close New London down, we will never get it back," said the commission's chairman, Anthony Principi. "I think it might be a tragic mistake, a tragic loss for this nation." no previous page next 1/3

navy uggs Even though the planned meeting relating to the father of Elian Gonzalez and the Miami relatives who refuse to give his up failed to take place, there is some cause of optimism regarding the situation as outlined by CBS News Consultant Pam Falk, legislation professor and Cuban affairs expert.She noted it had become encouraging that the previous agreement was negotiated with the Cuban American National Foundation, friends made up of powerful and prominent members of the Cuban American community.Receiving the families to agree to meet face to face represents a first step in the reconciliation process. The involvement from the Foundation may indicate that the parties could reach some middle ground about the fate of Elian. One possible scenario has to be voluntary transfer in which Elian would go with his father but be capable of return to spend time with his American family.The worst of all would be a situation where marshals forcibly take Elian and return him to his father. Falk claims that would be a "lose-lose" proposition which no person seems to want at this point.
pink uggs U.S. troops interrogating terrorism suspects have no idea which techniques are permitted and Congress owes it in their mind to establish clear standards, Senate Republicans said Wednesday, opening a politically volatile debate over the treatment of detainees.The White House opposes legislation that could impose restrictions on the Pentagon's detention, interrogation and prosecution of prisoners, arguing that it would tie the president's hands in wartime.Despite a veto threat, Sens. John McCain, R-Ariz., and Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., making the effort to tack that legislation onto the $440 billion military spending bill. Votes could be early as Wednesday night.McCain's amendment would ban the application of "cruel, inhuman or degrading treatment or punishment" against anyone in U.S. custody and wish all U.S. troops to follow procedures in the Army Field Manual whenever they detain and interrogate suspects. Graham's amendment would define "enemy combatant" and set into law procedures for prosecuting detainees at Guantanamo Bay."Confusion in regards to the rules results in abuses from the field. We need a clear consistent standard," McCain, a prisoner of war in the Vietnam War, said on the Senate floor.Graham, an Air Force judge for 20 years, added: "We have allow troops down when it comes to looking to give them guidance in very stressful situations."CBS News correspondent Barry Fuss reports the Bush administration is furious about this effort, saying it will brook no interference using the way it runs the war on terror and threatening to veto the bill funding the Pentagon if these measures are attached. Siding together with the White House, Sen. Ted Stevens, R-Alaska, said that requiring all U.S. troops to adhere to procedures in the Army manual is just not practical in the current war environment. "The techniques very upon instances and the physical location of people involved," he was quoted saying.Backed by Senate Armed Services Committee Chairman John Warner, R-Va., McCain and Graham offered exactly the same proposals in the summer as the Senate worked on a bill setting Pentagon policy. But Senate Majority Leader Bill Frist, R-Tenn., scuttled that bill partly because of White House opposition towards the detainee proposals.As they did before, Democrats also prefer to continue to push their own proposal that could establish an independent commission to research allegations of prisoner abuse. The Pentagon already did several of its own investigations and argues that another can be redundant.But Sen. Carl Levin of Michigan, the very best Democrat on the Armed Services Committee, said those reviews weren't thorough enough. "This is often a rich target for a true investigation," he stated Wednesday. He accused the White House of issuing a "false threat" to veto the check over detainee amendments. no previous page next 1/2
www.ahlborn-kirchenorgeln.com/bottesugg.html One minute CBS News Correspondent Steve Hartman was flipping the product book outside the restrooms at Cracker Barrel in Benton, Tenn. and subsequently he was in an ambulance using a pregnant woman, hoping paramedic Tecia Rome would get to the hospital on time. For Rome, it wasn't uncommon to get that mom for the emergency room, or pulling a female from a small car wreck while assisting another who had fainted. Her day job is full of drama. But her story is around her job as a mom.Rome was 17 years old when she got pregnant with Jerrica. She went into labor before English class and later on became the first kid at her high school graduation to bring a baby to prom. Having a kid was fun, but only for about three months. "I presented it to my mother you might say 'look, I've got to get out of the house,' " she remembers. Her mother, Wanda Ingram, says there were a lot of times when she did not know where Rome was."She would leave for her friends but where she was exactly I did not know," Ingram adds.By now motherhood had become a chore. Rome moved on to a new boyfriend and started partying every weekend night and sleeping in every weekend day. This took for two years."My mom finally got sick and tired with it," says Rome. Track Hartman's travels through the Everybody Has A Story archive. It happened one Sunday. Ingram was simply starting her day, her daughter just ending her night, so when their paths crossed that fateful morning, Ingram decided she had no choice but to kick her daughter and granddaughter out of the house."I wanted to always be there in my children and that was 1 time you couldn't be there," she adds."My mom knew I'd find out what it's like to be an actual parent. And she was right," says Rome.Today Rome is married to some fellow paramedic named Gavin and they have a son. Jarred is 14 months the same age Jerrica was when Rome thought she had numerous other things to do."I wish I could return because I know my mom she's seen all of that. She got to experience all of that because she was the main one taking care of her. It bothers me to attend work and leave my kids now."Amazing how those things that make parenting so tough, end up being the very same things that make it all worthwhile.©MMI Viacom Internet Services Inc., All Rights Reserved
