Jeffery Leving is a successful family practice lawyer in Chicago. He focuses in keeping fathers in the lives of their children, even after a divorce. He was part of the team ensured Elian Gonzalez's return to his father in Cuba. He describes his involvement in a documentary film "A Wheelie in an All-American City" while an undergraduate. The film told the story of accessibility in Carbondale, years before the Americans with Disabilities Act.

Elian Gonzalez is about to become a Cuban lawmaker, Kourtney Kardashian slammed as 'misogynist' for launching vitamin for vagina 'taste', Florida Man who broke into gas station identified and arrested after leaving debit card behind

It's January 29th. This day in 2000, the Cuban relatives of Elian Gonzalez are in the United States arguing that the six-year-old child should be returned to Cuba — while his relatives in Miami and many in the Cuban-American community are fighting for him to be kept in the U.S. Jody, Niki, and Kellie are joined by Northwestern history professor Geraldo Cadava to discuss why the Gonzalez story became such a flashpoint, and how it played into the political moment.

This episode of "Welcome to Florida" begins in Stuart.Our guest this week is author and historian Gary Mormino. Gary's most recent book, published in 2022, is titled "Dreams in the New Century: Instant Cities, Shattered Hopes and Florida's Turning Point." The book covers Florida in the first decade of the new millennium where an extraordinary sequence of stories from Elian Gonzalez to the contested Bush v. Gore election, 9/11, hurricanes, the housing bubble and global economic collapse, Barak Obama's election and the state's bend toward right wing politics dramatically altered Florida, the nation and the future of both.

On this episode of WIki U we dive into the weather event that has smashed the West Coast with torrential rain last week. This isn't the first time it's happened and it's not even the worst. The Great Flood of 1862 brought 45 days of rain and snow and was on of the worst Pineapple Express events California has ever experienced. Also in this episode we find out what Elian Gonzalez has been up to and what law sent him back to Cuba.

In his book, "The Year that Broke America," Andrew Rice doesn't just argue that the year 2000 changed things, he argued that it broke everything. From the presidential election, to the seeds of the 9/11 plot, to Elian Gonzalez to reality TV, he explains how a confluence of unfortunate incidents led America down a path from which it has never recovered. It's also easy to forget that Donald Trump waged a presidential run that year, a run that showed him how the country wasn't yet ready for his brand of politics. In sixteen years, it would be. Rice reconstructs how media, politics and violence became places to fight, as opposed to places to come together. We didn't get Y2K in the way we expected, but we did get permanent PTSD.Andrew Rice's website can be found hereMore information on his book from HarperCollins can be found here Support our show at https://patreon.com/axelbankhistory**A portion of every contribution is given to a charity for children's literacy** "Axelbank Reports History and Today" can be found on social media at https://twitter.com/axelbankhistory https://instagram.com/axelbankhistoryhttps://facebook.com/axelbankhistory

INS ruling says Elian Gonzalez must be returned to father, 9 Year boy handcuffed for not wearing helmet

Jason Statham plays a farmer named Farmer in In the Name of the King: A Dungeon Siege Tale, and we're here to tell you all about it.

Joey teaches a quick course in Uwe Boll 101 and Joe compares Boll to Christopher Moltisanti.

Gore election controversy ("the most wild and improbable election outcome you can imagine - so far"); the pilots planning 9/11 who were training at flight centers on Florida, for 18 months before the attacks; Donald Trump's presidential run as a Reform Party candidate; young Cuban kid, Elian Gonzalez, washed up on the shore in Miami; enraged Cuban community in Florida, determinative in Presidential election; resulted in 24hour coverage (the first reality television); and an arms dealing, money laundering case ("the most obscure but most fascinating tale").

PODCAST SUMMARY HOUR 1: Rush tells Democrats that they brought their Supreme Court panic on themselves by eliminating the filibuster. Democrats threaten to retaliate with court-packing scheme, statehood for D.C. & Puerto Rico, and 16-year-olds voting. "Moderate" or "undecided" today just means anti-Trump. Remember, the GOP won Senate seats in 2018 thanks to Kavanaugh. What could RINO Republicans do in a vote? Why won't Plugs release his list of SCOTUS nominees? PODCAST SUMMARY HOUR 2: President Trump praises Rush in North Carolina speech. Trump dares say he doubts RBG deathbed plea. A president has the power to nominate for the Supreme Court as long as he or she is president. Harry Reid ended the judicial filibuster, and now it's biting them. Somehow, it's our fault that Plugs said 200 million will die of COVID. We need to fill this seat ASAP. Andy McCarthy: The Constitution's requirements for a nomination are all met. PODCAST SUMMARY HOUR 3: Leftist hate embodied by Leo Guinan's column where he demands father choose between voting Trump and never seeing his son or grandson again. Will Democrats want to be seen attacking Barbara Lagoa, the Cuban-American judge on Trump's shortlist? Barbara Lagoa, Cuban-American on Trump's short list, fought to keep Elian Gonzalez here in freedom. A 4-4 Supreme Court isn't good for America.

We discuss whether people are masturbating during work hours now that everyone's working at home, a round of But Your Kids Are Gonna Love It, and Novak Djokovic testing positive for coronavirus.

In this last part to the series, things between the US and Cuba remain...interesting. Some of the topics I discuss in Part 5 include eased travel restrictions, the retraction of those decisions, the Elian Gonzalez situation, opening of embassies, the Cuban Thaw, current happenings, and what may happen in the future. I hope you enjoyed this 5-part series. I had a blast doing it. Thanks for listening. More individual episodes to come!

Check out the Podcast Video on youtube. https://youtu.be/vUGyQAysxl4 Elián González Brotons (born December 6, 1993) is a Cuban citizen who, as a young boy in 2000, became embroiled in a heated international custody and immigration controversy involving the governments of Cuba and the United States; his father, Juan Miguel González Quintana; his other relatives in Cuba and in Miami, Florida; and Miami's Cuban-American community. González's mother, Elizabeth Brotons Rodríguez, drowned in November 1999 while attempting to leave Cuba with González and her boyfriend to get to the United States. The U.S. Immigration and Naturalization Service (INS) initially placed González with paternal relatives in Miami, who sought to keep him in the United States against his father's demands that González be returned to Cuba. A United States district court ruling from the Southern District of Florida that only González's father, and not his extended relatives, could petition for asylum on the boy's behalf was upheld by the 11th Circuit Court of Appeals. After the U.S. Supreme Court declined to hear the case, federal agents, by order of U.S. attorney general Janet Reno, took González from the paternal relatives at gunpoint and returned him to his father in Cuba in June 2000. Many Cubans had left Cuba for the United States since the Cuban Revolution of 1959. This emigration was illegal under both Cuban and U.S. laws; e.g., any Cuban found at sea attempting to reach U.S. shores could be deported by the United States or be arrested by Cuban authorities. At the time, U.S. policy had evolved into a so-called "wet feet, dry feet" rule. If a Cuban was picked up at sea or walking toward shore, they were repatriated unless they could make a claim of asylum. If they made it to shore (or entered through Mexico) before encountering U.S. authorities, they were generally allowed to remain in the country. Tune in now watch, like and Subscribe Pretty Please!!

In this unusual dialogue Dr. Shermer talks to author and journalist Daniel de Visé about one of the greatest athletes in American history, three-time Tour de France winner Greg LeMond and de Vise’s new book about the cyclist, The Comeback: Greg LeMond, the True King of American Cycling, and a Legendary Tour de France. They also get into what constitutes fairness in sports, Lance Armstrong and the era of doping in sports in which nearly every professional athlete (not just in cycling) was using Performing Enhancing Drugs, and the ethics of how something can be immoral if everyone is doing it. Shermer explains his game theory analysis of cheating and how to tilt the incentive matrix to encourage fair play among all agents in a system. They also touch on de Vise’s prior bestselling book Andy and Don, the story of Andy Griffith and Don Knotts and their classic American television series. Daniel de Visé is an author and journalist. He has worked at the Washington Post, the Miami Herald, and in 2001 shared a Pulitzer Prize for his investigative journalism of the on-the-scene coverage of the pre-dawn raid by federal agents that took the Cuban boy Elian Gonzalez from his Miami relatives and reunited him with his Cuban father. His investigative reporting twice led to the release of wrongly convicted men from life terms in prison. He is the author of I Forgot to Remember and Andy and Don: The Making of a Friendship and a Classic American TV Show.

2000 - From the Comedy News Headquarters on the Internet, it's THE DAILY SHOW WEEKLY, hosted by Vic Shuttee and Chandler Dean. What a difference a year makes for hapless talk show host Jon Stewart (Half Baked), taking his little watched cable property up 400% over the course of this Peabody-winning season. From the developing stories of Elian Gonzalez and TV’s reality explosion, to the powder keg of a 38-day Too Close To Call Presidential Election, The Daily Show found some solid ground in uncertain times. Along with the Daily Show Press Corp including Stephen Colbert, Steve Carell, Vance Degeneres and more – the show traveled to Philadelphia, Los Angles and the format of LIVE TV, with successed and failures along the way. Catch-up on 12 months of Comedy Central circa 2000, with this audiobook presentation’s month at a glance view featuring the highest highs, lowest lows, and the oddest oddballs. Part 1 of 2.

DECEMBER 5, 2017 - BUH-DUN-DUN-DUH-NUH! From the Comedy News Headquarters on the Internet, it's THE DAILY SHOW WEEKLY, hosted by Vic Shuttee and Chandler Dean. It all leads up to this – election day 2000! As Colbert beats into your head DON’T VOTE, the bland face-off of Bush v Gore comes to a head… and history is made. In an live hour long, Jon juggles full team coverage, Charles Doty, Bob Dole and a Florida too close to call. As the night closes out, a stalemate awaits – culminating in the best episodes of the show yet. There’s shirt sweat, baby’s first steps, bleary eyed frustration and a theme song. But for a year that started in the Sunshine State with Elian Gonzalez, it’s only fitting it returns to the spotlight for the biggest clusterfuck in electoral history – welcome, to the Freaky Zone. Senator Arlen Specter, Bob Dole, Richard Belzer and Michael Moore guest.

In this episode of 80 Days: an exploration podcast,  we return to Cuba to bring its story from the Castro Revolution, right up to the modern day. As US-Cuba relations have been in the news this week, it's impossible to keep up with all the twists and turns, but we do our best. If you haven't already listened to Part 1 of this episode, we recommend listening to that first to see how we got here. Cuba is an island in the Caribbean Ocean, just 90 miles south of the US state of Florida. Cuba is home to over 11 million inhabitants. Cuba gained independence from Spain in 1902, but soon fell under US influence and became a playground for the rich and powerful; this was particularly true following the 1952 coup that brought Fulgencia Batista to power. Following a turbulent revolution which spanned almost the entire 1950s, the Communist Party of Cuba, under the leadership of Fidel Castro, took control of the country in 1965. Although poverty is widespread, modern Cuba has an outstanding health care and education system and relations with the US are currently beginning to thaw after a protracted embargo that has been in place since the 1960s. Since Cuba has an awful lot of history, particularly in the 20th Century, we decided to split this episode into two parts: this is the second part. Your hosts are Luke Kelly @thelukejkelly in Hong Kong, Mark Boyle @markboyle86 in the UK, Joe Byrne @anbeirneach in Switzerland and - as a new voice for regular listeners - we're joined in this episode by  Erin Barclay in the USA.

PLEASE ENJOY YOUR HAPPINESS, Pulitzer-prize winning war correspondent PAUL BRINKLEY-ROGERS is a gorgeous and evocative memoir that has captured the hearts and minds of our staff and the booksellers who have received an early glimpse of his pages recounting a haunting love affair with a mysterious older Japanese woman in the summer of 1959. “Please enjoy…the most romantic memoir you’re likely to read in a lifetime.” —ELIN HILDERBRAND, New York Times bestselling author of HERE’S TO US “A searing final love letter.”—DAILY EXPRESS (UK) “A moving memoir exploring the last imprint of his first love.”—THE LADY (UK) “[A] haunting memoir.”—DAILY MAIL (UK) At age 75, Paul began writing PLEASE ENJOY YOUR HAPPINESS after discovering his long-lost love’s letters tucked inside a book by a British poet he had not opened in years. When he reread her passionate epistles—which are also featured verbatim in his memoir—he set out to recapture this singular time and place, his coming-of-age as a 19-year-old sailor aboard the USS Shangri-La, and to pay tribute to Kaji Yukiko, the incredible woman who continues to influence his life long after they parted more than half a century ago. Paul and Yukiko met by chance in the Japanese seaport of Yokosuka. Picking him out of a crowd because he was carrying a book, she shared her astonishing knowledge of literature, music, film, and poetry with him and encouraged—even demanded—that he use the talent she saw in him to become the writer he is today. Through Yukiko, he discovered a shared passion for the arts and learned many heartbreaking truths about post-war Japan. He also learned what it takes to love without regret. Theirs was not a quiet love story. When a member of the yakuza, Japan’s brutal crime syndicate, attempted to kidnap Yukiko, Paul realized that there was much more to her—and to Japan in the devastating wake of World War II—than he saw at first glance. Through the searing letters that Yukiko wrote to him and his vivid telling of a history made all the more powerful by the passage of time, PLEASE ENJOY YOUR HAPPINESS reaches across decades and continents, inviting readers to reclaim and celebrate the lifelong loves that never really end. PLEASE ENJOY YOUR HAPPINESS has quickly become an in-house favorite and is all the more personal to us because the beautiful image on the cover is a photo of the mother of Tara Parsons, Touchstone’s Editor-in-Chief (and the book’s editor). The photo of Parsons’ mother dressed in a formal kimono was taken in Japan during the same time period in which PLEASE ENJOY YOUR HAPPINESS is set. Paul Brinkley-Rogers is a Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist and veteran war correspondent. For many years he worked in Asia as a staff member of Newsweek, covering the wars in Vietnam and Cambodia, the death of Chairman Mao, and Japan's economic miracle. He also reported from Latin America for The Miami Herald, sharing the Pulitzer Prize with a reporting team in 2001 for coverage of the Elian Gonzalez custody battle. He is the author of Please Enjoy Your Happiness, a memoir. Now retired, he lives in Arizona.

L'affaire Elian Gonzalez racontée par le journaliste Jean-Michel Leprince

Elian Gonzalez

Marie Sanz, Joan Shorenstein Fellow (fall 2015) and senior correspondent for Agence France Presse, introduces her new research paper examining The New York Times' editorials on U.S.-Cuba relations over the past five decades, and the role of the press in the restoration of relations between the two countries. Since 1961, The New York Times editorial board consistently opposed the break in U.S.-Cuba relations, and used major historical events such as the Bay of Pigs, the Cuban Missile Crisis, the Mariel boatlift, and the Elian Gonzalez standoff to argue for the restoration of relations. Sanz also covers Fidel Castro’s relationship with the media, how U.S. public opinion toward Cuba changed over time, and the secret talks between the U.S. and Cuba that led to the announcement that relations would be normalized on December 17, 2014. Sanz's full paper can be read at shorensteincenter.org.

This week I am planning for my long drive from Florida to New Jersey so it's a talk about anything extravaganza. The Boston Bomber, James Bond and Pitch Perfect 2 are some of the places we're going this week. Then the hilarity and the drama of the NBA lottery and how Elian Gonzalez cockblocked me in 1999. Yeah, I hold a grude. HEY NOW!! See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

It has been 62 years since the Cuban Revolution began. Fifty-four years since the Bay of Pigs invasion. Fifty-three years since the Cuban Missile Crisis. Twenty-six years since the end of the Cold War, and 15 years since the Elian Gonzalez incident. And it is just now that we are beginning a new relationship with our neighbor 90 miles away. A significant part of our population has come of age with absolutely no knowledge of the history of the US / Cuba relationship, what the revolution was about, or what all the hostility has been about. And yet the history of that relationship with Cuba has been a kind of Rosetta Stone for understating the bias, the mistakes, and domestic politics behind so much of American foreign policy, from the mid-20th century until today. Few have had the access to Cuba to provide the kind of clear and present perspective that Tom Hayden has. Tom Hayden, a leader in the student, antiwar, and civil rights protests throughout the 1960s talks toWhoWhatWhy's Jeff Schechtman about what this new opening might mean.

Alan Diaz of The Associated Press shares the story behind his gripping photograph of federal agents seizing Elian Gonzalez that became a visual touchstone of the nationally publicized custody battle between the boy’s father in Cuba and relatives in Miami.

Mike, Bobby and Ben discuss Bobby's Birthday, the passing of Nelson Mandela, Ukrainian protests, NYC Crime and Income maps, Paul Walker, Elian Gonzalez, Florida State QB Winston getting charges dropped, user tweets and more!

After having a great time discussing the first half of the Year 2000,  we're back this week to finish it off as we cover July through December of Y2K. We lead things off with some stories from 2000 including the AOL (remember them?) merger with Time Warner, the first season of Survivor, and the Elian Gonzalez custody drama that had America on the edge of its seat. Jumping into July, we discuss Rage Against the Machine's free concert outside the Democratic National Convention in protest to the two-party system. If you've paid attention since then, not much has changed but they get an "A" for effort.  We spin a variety of artists in our coverage of July and August of 2000 including clips from newer groups such as Jack Off Jill and Mudvayne as well as tried and true rockers such as UFO and Motley Crue. We also include a track that slipped our mind during part one but was too good not to include. September saw Rage Against the Machine back in the headlines as bassist Tim Commerford is arrested for climbing on the set of the MTV Video Music Awards after losing the award for Best Rock Video to Limp Bizkit. Who could blame him? We spin polar opposite tracks from David Coverdale and Suicidal Tendencies during this segment (how's that for diversity?) In October, the aforementioned Limp Bizkit released the nausea-inducingly titled Chocolate Starfish and the Hot Dog Flavored Water, selling over a million copies in its first week. My how things have changed since 2000. Covering October, we spin tunes from Fozzy, Hammerfall, Megadeth, Slash's Snakepit, and Over Kill. No Linkin Park being spun on this show. We return from the break to close out the year with a controversial tune released by ever-controversial Marilyn Manson in November. December saw the Backstreet Boys racking up 1.6 million sales in its debut week with Black & Blue. To properly react to that stat, we share a clip from Frankenstein Drag Queens from Planet 13 that sums up our thoughts nicely. Closing out this episode is a great song (one of many other great songs) from the Iommi album that was released in October of 2000. We dug deep once again to give you a nice variety of rock and metal that you may have missed in 2000. If you dig something that you heard on today's show, remember to...... Buy Music!
