He has collected and shared a humongous amount of evidence during that period. Based on that evidence he released four papers in June 2022 and subsequently was ‘advised' to do a book. The publication of Prayer Man: More Than a Fuzzy Picture represents an unprecedented decade-long investigation of Lee Harvey Oswald's last 48 hours. Bart Kamp has produced a comprehensive work, which delves into Lee Harvey Oswald and the other Texas School Book Depository employees inside the building during and shortly after President Kennedy was assassinated on November 22nd 1963. Kamp's detailed research also examines the period of Oswald's incarceration and interrogations. It presents an entirely new and deep perspective of how the law enforcement agencies gathered their evidence that weekend. It reveals a dramatic new context in relation to understanding Lee Harvey Oswald's innocence. Within these pages are many new and never before published revelations that contrast the altered accounts that were represented before the Warren Commission and challenges many commonly accepted assumptions and interpretations.

Tras un par de películas serias vamos con algo mucho más ligero, divertido y encantador, esta vez estamos ante The X from outer space, el kaiju (porque solo hizo esta película dentro de este género) de la productora shochiku.

Un viaje espacial, una base lunar que parece un hotel, una especie de gallina gigante destruyendo el mundo, triángulos amorosos, paseos estelares y mucho más encontraremos en esta película. Además también dejamos un espacio al final para la segunda película de este monstruo llamada Monster X Strikes Back: Attack the G8 Summit la cual es bastante menos afortunada ya que lo apuesta todo por una comedia que quizás no sea para todos los paladares.

This episode is Part 2 of our chat with retired Major-General Charles "Duff" Sullivan, who served with the Royal Canadian Air Force (RCAF). In this episode we pick-up by discussing the General's role as the Director of Operations for the Canadian North American Air Defense Command Region during 9/11, and the planning that went into the 2002 G8 Summit in Kananaskis, Alberta.The General provides us with detailed information about NORAD security for the Summit, and a briefing that he shared with the Deputy Prime Minister of Canada about the command authority to respond to incursions of the Summit's exclusion zone, and how engagement of an airborne threat would be handled. We learn that the concept of operations that the RCAF developed was briefed to the U.S. Military, who adopted a variation of it for their own security requirements post 9/11.We also discuss the General's first foray into Afghanistan; and his subsequent deployment to the country as NATO's Air Component Commander for all air assets in theatre for NATO's 42-nation coalition.While in Afghanistan the General served as the Deputy Chief of Joint Operations, where he and his colleagues stood up a Dynamic Targeting Operations Center in theatre.With those experiences in mind, the General shared his insight into what he feels are essential enablers for modern warfare in the context of counter insurgency operations.We conclude our discussion with thoughts about NATO's departure from Afghanistan, and his personal reflections on the Afghan people and their future.Throughout our 2-part discussion, the General speaks with genuine candor.As we did in Part 1, we wish to reflect on Remembrance Day and Veterans Day, and we acknowledge all those who have served in uniform, and particularly those that have paid the ultimate sacrifice for freedom.We will not forget.We thank Major-General (Ret) Sullivan for his service, and for sharing his time and experiences with us. We hope that you find our discussion informative and insightful.Go Bold!

This episode of YHS on Monster Island is brought to you by the letter "X". "The Tattooed Titan of Tokusatsu" Jacob Walsh and his sidekick, Jay Key, tackle not one - but two- kaiju flicks from Shochiku: 1967's The X from Outer Space and 2008's follow-up, Monster X Strikes Back: Attack the G8 Summit. If you aren't already familiar with these films - hold on tight - because they offer a little bit of everything, from truly original kaiju design to moon dancing to famous cameos to Kim Jong-Il. Most notably, it demonstrates two very unique ways that kaiju can stop deadly missiles. So grab a cocktail, check for any Guilalanium, put on your headphones (make sure they aren't the brainwashing kind), and start chanting "Neci-Coma" - because YHS on Monster Island is taking you to GuiLALA-Land! In addition to reviewing these two movies, Jake and Jay discuss some big news items such as Apple TV+'s upcoming Monsterverse series, a new Marusan 350 BioGoji, and SH Monster Arts' Singular Point Rodan! Oh, and is there a new Guilala toy? Now that's timing. And don't forget weekly pick-ups!

Radio Show, TV and Podcast Travel Expert, Stephanie Abrams, whisk her audience off to charming resort in Northern Ireland just outside of the town of Enniskillen where two golf courses, once designed by Nick Faldo and the other called Castle Hume, await visitors who might see locals, including Rory McElroy, honing their skills where that talented lad learned to play golf! Some may recall Lough Erne Resort being featured in 2015 on the US TV show, The Bachelorette or the place where the 39th G8 Summit took place in 2013. Don't be put off by the thought that those with impeccable taste might have stayed in a place beyond your means because, if budget is at the center of your travels, choose to travel during those days of the year when rates are quite affordable, stay for a shorter period of time on your journey, shave your expenses by staying in charming B&Bs on the island that is Ireland for many of the nights of your stay, and that will create a "slush fund" for a bit of a splurge which won't be out of reach especially if you choose to travel during "Smart Season" when rates are lower, generally between mid-October and end of March/early April. You'll meet the delightful Joanne Walsh, the newest general manager, and the winner of Stephanie Abrams General Manager Congeniality Award, Joanne Walsh, who is imbued with Irish spirit and imbued with the driver of Irish hospitality, Cead Mile Failte, One Hundred Thousand Welcomes. Learn more in Hour 1 of today's podcast! Then, in Hour 2, after travel industry tips and insights from Stephanie, sit in on a chat with Mayor Sam Cobb from Hobbs, New Mexico as part of the welcome of WHOB am 1300 to Stephanie's family of radio station affiliates to learn more about what Hobbs and the region have to offer visitors during Stephanie's focus on "Stay & Play USA!" And Hour 3 focuses on changes in the travel industry including the impact of the CoronaVirus o US hotels including an anecdote from Stephanie Abrams' person experience at the about-to-close, after almost 100 years of operation, The Roosevelt Hotel, along with Stephanie's answer to the question, "What's a hooker?" For more info on that last thought, look for her blog on the subject.

Jason Fileta and Michael Wear join William Matthews, Dr. Hillary McBride, and Michael Gungor to talk about politics, the church, and how we can wade through the ways these interconnected spaces in our lives affect ourselves and those around us. Michael Wear is a leading strategist, speaker and practitioner at the intersection of faith, politics and public life. He advised President Obama, as well as some of the nation’s leading foundations, non-profits and public leaders, on some of the thorniest issues and exciting opportunities that define American life today. He has argued that the spiritual health and civic character of individuals is deeply tied to the state of our politics and public affairs.  Jason Fileta grew up in Wheaton, IL the son of Egyptian immigrants. The plight of the persecuted church in Egypt compelled him to commit his life to fighting for a more just world. He was chosen as a delegate to the G8 Summit in Scotland. The delegates advocated to leaders for debt cancellation for impoverished nations, fair trade policies, and increased assistance to impoverished nations. This helped launch his long-term work in advocacy focused on ending extreme poverty.

My guest this week worked both Obama campaigns, starting in January 2007 as Director of Special Events, a position that would take him through 30 states with Barack Obama. Along the way he helped revolutionise how data is gathered and used, how old tools like TV and radio are harmonised for maximum effect with social media, and went on to serve in both Inaugurations, both Administrations, and the President’s re-election. He says “The Obama campaigns are like 10 years of a corporation distilled into 18 months. In those few months the campaign is born, learns how to walk then gallop, then blossoms into a billion-dollar corporation that must reach out to 130 million people all in less than 2 years. It is marketing, social media, communications and branding all happening at once and all happening at light speed.” He is the Principal at New Day Strategy, bringing these skills to clients in the business world. Please welcome Roger Fisk. Bio Roger Fisk is the political campaign, marketing and media strategist widely credited with playing a key behind-the-scenes role in the back-to-back electoral victories of US President Barack Obama in 2008 and 2012. He was heavily involved in these game-changing campaigns which are regarded as the best run presidential campaigns in the history of US politics. Roger has a deep understanding of 21st-century presidential politics, political campaigning and the unprecedented power of information, relationships and marketing. He successfully engaged millions of people in long, sustained marketing and promotional strategies, using the internet and social media networks to great effect. Roger Fisk was hired by the Obama Team as the National Director of Special Events in what would become a history-making Finance Department. Here he managed a nationwide grass-roots fundraising team that revolutionised modern political fundraising, totalling US$100 million in 11 months while building the largest donor base in American history. During the campaign, Roger served as principal liaison with US Secret Service and local law enforcement and was directly responsible for coordinating and managing the media’s coverage of over 150 events across the country. He was in charge of some key Obama media appearances including 60 Minutes, The Daily Show, Good Morning America, Saturday Night Live, and the historic Race Speech in Philadelphia in March 2008. Roger supervised teams in 27 states with direct managerial responsibility for event and advertising budgets, site selection, appropriation of staff resources, cultivation of targeted free media, coordination of web outreach, and collaboration with local, state and national elected officials. Following President Obama’s first campaign he served as Cabinet Liaison for the 2009 Inauguration, then became a political appointee in the Obama Administration. In the Spring of 2012 Fisk joined President Obama’s re-election team, leading teams as a White House Lead Advance in critical states like Virginia, Iowa and Ohio, all of which the President won. Roger Fisk lectures on these revolutionary campaigning techniques while also offering high-impact seminars designed to enhance Executive Communications and Leadership Skills. Prior to his work for President Obama, Roger worked for Deval Patrick’s successful campaign for Governor of Massachusetts. All of this experience came from his work for Senator John Kerry, where he served as his Senior Aide in the US Senate for Communication and Policy. He advised Senator Kerry on a wide range of politically sensitive issues, including Medicare, AIDS, community health, and child nutrition. He worked for the Kerry Presidential campaign from its very first day to its last. His Presidential appointment in the Commerce Department requires him to coordinate diplomatic and trade missions for the Cabinet and President. He has served as Lead USG Coordinator on trade missions to India and China and co-ordinated the Cabinet’s role in both the 2009 COP-15 Global Conference on Climate Change in Copenhagen and the 2010 World Expo in Shanghai. He served as President Obama’s point person at the 2011 G8 Summit in Deauville, France. These experiences provide Roger with a deep understanding of 21st-century Presidential politics, how America’s political system impacts the rest of the world and the rapidly shifting cultural landscape they play out on.

a 2003 report for Free Speech Radio News on the Safe Third Country Agreement between the U.S. & Canada & the detrimental impacts on immigrants & refugees. below is the intro text for the report : Safe 3rd Country Begins (3:50) The Safe 3rd Country Agreement was signed between Canada & the United States during the G8 Summit in Kananaskis Alberta in June of 2002. The agreement gives the ability to both Canada & the US to automatically deport asylum seekers back to their point of entry, the safe third county. As the Safe Third Country Agreement comes into practice the effects are being illustrated by the case of the thousands of Pakistani's who are currently fleeing the United States to Canada. For many of the Pakistani asylum seekers their Safe Third Country is returning to the United States where they face INS registration. This agreement now embedded in both Canadian & American law leaves asylum seekers in a much more vulnerable position and with little options when it comes to seeking asylum in North America. Stefan Christoff reports from Montreal. /// listen to reports produced for Free Speech Radio News between 2002 - 2012, the flagship Pacifica radio daily news program, these reports were produced in Montreal, but also in Beirut, Lebanon. putting these reports up for archiving purposes, they address numerous grassroots struggles for justice and against oppression, particularly looking at struggles surrounding migrant justice, also indigenous movements for land and rights, while also struggles against colonialist wars today & the persisting impacts of wars past. thank you for listening ! stefan @spirodon

WORLD LEADERS at the G8 Summit two years ago praised the Japanese Premier Shinzo Abe’s “Abenomics”, his proposals for relaunching the Japanese economy and opening up Japan to more foreign investment. It sounded great at the time — for Japan’s ageing population and for its underemployed young people, for the Japanese consumer, and for foreign […] The post Japanese Business Culture.

At the G8 Summit in Italy, President Obama's being looked to for leadership on world finance and global warming.  Is progress likely or is the G8 an anachronistic waste of time? Also, a cyberattack on US government websites, and Mexican voters have dealt a severe blow to President Felipe Caldéron.

This week marked the third presidential debate among Republican candidates, the second for Democrats. Eighteen months before the election, are the debates more about style than substance? Are voters even paying attention? Also, the G8 Summit gets underway in Germany, and any billionaire but Rupert.  Wall Street Journal employees want to find another buyer. Sara Terry guest hosts.

At the G8 Summit which opens tomorrow, George Bush faces a tough sell for his global warming proposal.  At home, the President's approval ratings are low, and even his conservative supporters are angry at him over his immigration bill. Also, Scooter Libby gets 30 years, and the fortieth anniversary of war that re-shaped the Middle East.  Sara Terry guest hosts.

Segment #1: President Putin and the G8 The G8 is often called the club of rich nations. Some US Senators have called for Russia's expulsion because of human rights and purported backsliding on democracy, but this weekend, Russia is hosting the summit for the first time. In the run-up to this weekend's G8, President Bush and Vice President Cheney are playing good-cop and bad-cop with Vladimir Putin. In Lithuania recently, Cheney made a pointed public speech on Russian democracy, provoking Putin to make a snide reference yesterday to Cheney's infamous hunting accident. Can they overcome their differences on Iran, energy security for Western Europe and Russian democracy? We hear from three Russia experts, including a leading scholar who's recently met with both Presidents. Segment #2: Israel and Hezbollah Escalate Military Campaigns"There can be no illusions: Israel is at war." That's from analysis in today's Jerusalem Post, as Israeli bombs continue to fall in Lebanon and Hezbollah rockets strike cities in northern Israel. Hezbollah's headquarters appears to have been destroyed. Israel says incoming rockets were made in Iran. President Bush today called on Israel to "limit damage to Lebanon... and spare civilians from harm." Arab nations denounced what they called "a barbaric military campaign;" countries from China to Europe expressed concerned about destabilization of the entire Middle East. French President Jacques Chirac called the Israeli offensive "totally disproportionate." What are the prospects for diplomacy before the violence escalates out of control? We have updates from the Middle East and the United Nations. Making News: Update on the Northern Israel-Southern Lebanon SituationIsraelis in Haifa and other cities have been warned to stay off the street as Hezbollah rockets continue to fall. In Beirut, Hezbollah says its headquarters have been destroyed and its leader, Sheik Hassan Nazrallah, has declared war on Israel in a televised speech. Greg Myre, Jerusalem Correspondent for the New York Times, joins us from the Israel-Lebanon border.

Mumbai, formerly Bombay, has been resilient in the wake of eight simultaneous bomb explosions on the city's public train lines that killed more than 200 and injured 700 more. The trains were back on schedule less than 24 hours after the attacks and the Bombay Stock Exchange climbed a healthy three percent the following day. Indian authorities have rounded up 350 possible suspects. Similar to the 2004 bombings in Madrid and public transportation bombings in London last summer, Monday's explosions preceded peace talks--both the G8 Summit in Russia, to begin this weekend, and ongoing talks between India's Prime Minister Manmohan Singh and Pakistan's President Pervez Musharraf. Was it an act of international terrorism or a statement by homegrown terrorists, protesting India's quick growth toward globalization? Diana Nyad guest hosts. Making News: Israel Bombs Lebanon after Hezbollah Kidnaps SoldiersYesterday, Hezbollah militants attacked several towns in northern Israel, wounding civilians and capturing two Israeli soldiers. The Lebanese group has demanded an exchange of Arab prisoners in Israeli jails for the soldiers. Today, after Israel's concentrated attack on Lebanese airports, aimed at crippling civilian and military air access, Hezbollah fired rockets into Israel's populous port city of Haifa. We get an update from Nicholas Blanford, who's in Beirut for the Christian Science Monitor, and Kevin Peraino, who's in Jerusalem for Newsweek.Reporter's Notebook: Wider Flaws Found in Boston's Big Dig TunnelIt was conceived as a $14.6 bill engineering marvel to replace the city's central highway with an underground system. But over the course of 15 years of construction, Boston's Big Dig was fraught with trouble, from leaks and defective panels to accusations of using inferior quality concrete. On Monday, a section of tile fell and crushed a car. The driver escaped but couldn't save his wife. Joe Dwinell is assistant metro editor of the Boston Herald.
