MIAMI - Four men described as soldiers in a terrorism plot to destroy Chicago's Sears Tower and bomb FBI offices have each been sentenced to less than a decade behind bars, far less than federal prosecutors sought.

U.S. District Judge Joan Lenard, in sentencing hearings Wednesday and Thursday, said the four were followers who participated far less than ringleader Narseal Batiste in discussions about possible terrorist attacks. The conversations were recorded by the FBI using an informant posing as an al-Qaida operative.

The plot never got past the discussion stage, which has led defense attorneys and national terrorism experts to describe the case as overblown since the "Liberty City Seven" were arrested in June 2006. Lenard appeared to share that sentiment, at least for the four who were sentenced.

"As I see this case, these young men were looking for something. I don't know, maybe it was their naivete and youth that made them fall under the influence of a man with a need to control and they became his followers," Lenard said.

Prosecutors sought between 30 and 50 years in prison for each of the four men, with Batiste facing a maximum of 70 years when he is sentenced Friday. They were convicted in May in the third trial of the case following a pair of mistrials, and two of the original suspects were acquitted.

Lenard sentenced Batiste's self-described "No. 1 soldier," 30-year-old Patrick Abraham, to just over nine years Thursday. Stanley Phanor, 34, got eight years and two other men were sentenced to even less time Wednesday. Lenard said a terrorism enhancement that applies in each case would result in an unreasonably harsh sentence, so she opted for leniency.

Abraham, a Haitian native who has been jailed since his 2006 arrest, apologized for what happened but insisted he never sought to be a terrorist.

"I am not nobody's enemy," he said. "I am not the government's enemy."

Batiste, 35, testified at the trials that he faked being a terrorist in hopes of scamming the FBI informant out of $50,000 for his struggling construction business. Prosecutors portrayed him as a leader of a paramilitary sect that did not recognize U.S. government authority, and who hoped to use chaotic attacks on the 110-story Chicago skyscraper to start an anti-U.S. war.

A key piece of evidence was a ceremony led by the informant, and taped by the FBI, in which each man pledged loyalty to al-Qaida and Osama bin Laden.

"They proceeded full steam ahead," said Assistant U.S. Attorney Jacqueline Arango. "There was never any hesitation, never any second thoughts." ]]> World News Dalakerman06 http://www.ftabins.net/showthread.php?t=123508 19 alleged gang members indicted for racketeering http://www.ftabins.net/showthread.php?t=123507&goto=newpost Thu, 19 Nov 2009 22:44:44 GMT 19 alleged gang members indicted for racketeering GREENBELT, Md. - Nineteen alleged gang members have been indicted in Maryland on federal... 19 alleged gang members indicted for racketeering

GREENBELT, Md. - Nineteen alleged gang members have been indicted in Maryland on federal racketeering conspiracy charges.

U.S. Attorney General Rod J. Rosenstein announced the indictment Thursday. He says it alleges the 19 were members of the Latin Kings, a violent street gang. He says they've operated in Maryland since at least 2007.

The indictment says the gang members conspired to commit attempted murders, robberies, arson and other crimes.

Authorities have arrested 16 people in Maryland and two outside New York City. One remains at large.

Court hearings for the alleged gang members were scheduled to begin Thursday. ]]> World News Dalakerman06 http://www.ftabins.net/showthread.php?t=123507 Police seize more vids in Mo. sex abuse case http://www.ftabins.net/showthread.php?t=123506&goto=newpost Thu, 19 Nov 2009 22:41:33 GMT Police seize more vids in Mo. sex abuse case COLUMBIA, Mo. - Several family members who say they were sexually abused as children by adult... Police seize more vids in Mo. sex abuse case

COLUMBIA, Mo. - Several family members who say they were sexually abused as children by adult relatives remember being taken to various locations and photographed with naked men, police investigators said in a search warrant released Thursday.

The family members, who are now adults, told Columbia police investigators they remembered being taken to "various locations and having to pose for pictures in a sexual and provocative manner," according to the Nov. 12 warrant.

"They also recall pictures being taken while they were placed on a bed with naked men climbing onto the bed," the warrant states.

The warrant did not specify how many of the alleged victims said they had to pose for the photographs, nor did it identify a location.

Authorities seized more than 60 videos and computer equipment from the home of 48-year-old Jared Mohler, according to the warrant. Mohler, his father, three brothers and uncle are accused of raping and molesting several young relatives over roughly a decade beginning in the mid-1980s. They have not entered pleas.

Mohler's lawyer, Tim Larimore, did not immediately return a phone message seeking comment. The Lafayette County clerk said the other men charged did not have attorneys.

Other relatives of the men charged said earlier this week they do not believe the accusations.

Investigators said in the warrant that the mother of the children was told about the alleged abuse but that she didn't tell authorities. They say she instead told church leaders. The warrant did not identify the church.

Three of the men charged in the case have been suspended from their duties as lay ministers in the Community of Christ church, which is based in Independence.

The warrant said the mother has been cooperating with the investigation.

Jared Mohler's father, Burrell E. Mohler Sr., 77, of Independence; and his three brothers, Burrell Mohler Jr., 53, of Independence; Roland Neil Mohler, 47, of Bates City; and David A. Mohler, 52, of Lamoni, Iowa; are each charged with several counts of rape and use of a child in a sexual performance.

Jared Mohler's uncle, Darrel W. Mohler, 72, of Silver Springs, Fla., is charged with two counts of rape.

(This version CORRECTS that Jared Mohler, his father, three brothers and uncle are charged in the case, not Jared Mohler, his father and four brothers.) ]]> World News Dalakerman06 http://www.ftabins.net/showthread.php?t=123506 Need help scanning satalite http://www.ftabins.net/showthread.php?t=123505&goto=newpost Thu, 19 Nov 2009 22:41:20 GMT hey guys so i have everything set up. but what do i type in for like lnb and other stuff when im trying to search sat 119 for... hey guys so i have everything set up. but what do i type in for like lnb and other stuff when im trying to search sat 119 for dn?:confused::confused::confused: ]]> NFusion HD saga1 http://www.ftabins.net/showthread.php?t=123505 Need help Setting Up New Ihub http://www.ftabins.net/showthread.php?t=123504&goto=newpost Thu, 19 Nov 2009 22:38:39 GMT I just got a new ihub and im trying to set it up i have version 82.0 but i cant seem to upload anything to fix it it keeps saying FAILED TO UPLOAD....

Santa Letter Program Killed http://www.ftabins.net/showthread.php?t=123501&goto=newpost Thu, 19 Nov 2009 22:34:46 GMT Humbug! Santa Letter Program Killed ANCHORAGE, Alaska (Nov. 19) — Starry-eyed children writing letters to the jolly man at the North Pole this... Humbug! Santa Letter Program Killed

ANCHORAGE, Alaska (Nov. 19) — Starry-eyed children writing letters to the jolly man at the North Pole this holiday season likely won't get a response from Santa Claus or his helpers.

The U.S. Postal Service is dropping a popular national program begun in 1954 in the small Alaska town of North Pole, where volunteers open and respond to thousands of letters addressed to Santa each year. Replies come with North Pole postmarks.

Last year, a postal worker in Maryland recognized an Operation Santa volunteer there as a registered sex offender. The postal worker interceded before the individual could answer a child's letter, but the Postal Service viewed the episode as a big enough scare to tighten rules in such programs nationwide.

People in North Pole are incensed by the change, likening the Postal Service to the Grinch trying to steal Christmas. The letter program is a revered holiday tradition in North Pole, where light posts are curved and striped like candy canes and streets have names such as Kris Kringle Drive and Santa Claus Lane. Volunteers in the letter program even sign the response letters as Santa's elves and helpers.

North Pole Mayor Doug Isaacson agreed caution is necessary to protect children. But he's outraged North Pole's program should be affected by a sex offender's actions on the East Coast — and he thinks it's wrong that locals just learned of the change.

"It's Grinchlike that the Postal Service never informed all the little elves before the fact," he said. "They've been working on this for how long?"

The Postal Service began restricting its policies in such programs in 2006, including requiring volunteers to show identification.

But the Maryland incident involving the sex offender prompted more changes, even forcing the agency to briefly suspend the Operation Santa program last year in New York and Chicago before reinstating it with the same restrictions implemented nationwide this year.

The agency now prohibits volunteers from having access to children's family names and addresses, said spokeswoman Sue Brennan. The Postal Service instead redacts the last name and addresses on each letter and replaces the addresses with codes that match computerized addresses known only to the post office — and leaves it up to local managers if they want to go through the time-consuming effort to shield the information. Brennan said no one is barred from continuing their programs, but they have to comply with the rules.

Anchorage-based agency spokeswoman Pamela Moody said dealing with the tighter restrictions is not feasible in Alaska.

"It's always been a good program, but we're in different times and concerned for the privacy of the information," she said.

Moody stressed that kids can still send letters to Santa Claus. The Postal Service still runs the giant Operation Santa Program in which children can have their letters to Santa answered, and the restrictions do not affect privately run letter efforts.

What will change are the generically addressed letters to "Santa Claus, North Pole" that for years have been forwarded to the Alaska town, although Brennan said only a fraction of the letters with no specific address wind up in the Alaska town anyway. That program will stop, unless changes are made before Christmas.

Losing the Santa-letter cache is a blow to the community of 2,100 people, who pride themselves on their Christmas ties. Huge tourist attractions here include an everything-Christmas store, Santa Claus House, and the post office, where visitors can get a hand-stamped postmark on their postcards and packages.

Another issue raising the hackles on some locals is another recent change. Anchorage — 260 miles to the south — is processing the thousands of out-of-state requests for North Pole postal cancellation marks on Christmas cards and packages; Fairbanks, just 15 miles away, had long done so.

Moody said with as many as 800,000 items processed last year, Fairbanks is not equipped to handle the overload. Anchorage is the only city in Alaska with the high-speed equipment necessary to do the job without delay. Moody disagreed with the mayor's belief that the process creates a false postmark. Brennan said the move is a matter of resources and finances for the agency, which lost billions of dollars in the last fiscal year and has closed facilities and consolidated districts nationwide.

Santa Claus House, built like a Swiss chalet and chock full of all items Christmas, sells more than 100,000 letters from Santa and one of the lures is the postmark.

Operations manager Paul Brown believes his business will be affected under changes to the volunteer Santa letter program because tens of thousands of letters are addressed to Santa Claus House, North Pole, Alaska.

Those letters will still be forwarded to volunteers but it's unclear yet if anything will be done with them. Those intercepted by the postal service will probably eventually be shredded.

Brown worries about misinterpretations of the changes, such as people believing it's no longer possible to get individual pieces of mail graced with the North Pole postmark. ]]> World News Dalakerman06 http://www.ftabins.net/showthread.php?t=123501 MultiCAS Version 1.61C-A02 Release date: 19/11/2009 http://www.ftabins.net/showthread.php?t=123500&goto=newpost Thu, 19 Nov 2009 22:26:16 GMT MultiCAS Version 1.61C-A02 Release date: 19/11/2009 - Fix : Problem about Server 2.1.2 and 2.1.3 - Fix Sky ITA ( Card reader !!!
