VOA news for Thursday, June 23rd, 2016
Thanks to http://gandalf.ddo.jp/ for audio and text
From Washington, this is VOA news. I'm Joe Parker reporting. In Britain, the countdown is underway.
The countdown has begun for the Thursday referendum that will once and for all decide whether Britain remains in the European Union. The both sides are making last-minute emotional pleas to those undecided with less than 24 hours before the vote gets underway.
From London, VOA's Luis Ramirez has more.
There are warnings that leaving the 28-member bloc may cause the British pound to lose 15 percent of its value and bring the resignation of the country's prime minister, whose mandate depends on whether Britain listens to him and votes to remain.
"If we choose to leave, we can leave. But let's be clear if we do leave, that's it. We are walking out the door.”
Polls since the June 16th murder showed the Leave camp losing ground, but both sides still very close ahead of a referendum that many believe may change the course of European history.
Luis Ramirez, VOA news, London.
Which is how are officials here in the U.S. looking at Brexit and its possible ramifications.
Well, few authorities on the financial stage carry more weight than the chairman of the Federal Reserve, Janet Yellen.
"Well, it is a risk that we are monitoring. I've said that. We will be watching closely to see what the vote is and what possible repercussions it might have.”
She says it's not what inevitably will happen. The concern is so bad what might happen.
"I don't know Brexit poll would have significant consequences for us but it could, and I think it's important to take that into account.”
She has no emergency meetings regarding the Brexit vote scheduled regardless of the outcome.
This is VOA news.
The voice of Amjad Sabri, a renounced singer of Sufi devotional music. Sabri was shot and killed today by two unknown men in Pakistan's southern port city of Karachi.
Police say two men riding a motorcycle fired on Amjad Sabri's car and fled the scene. The 45-year-old singer succumbed to his wounds as he was being driven to a hospital.
No one has claimed responsibility.
The news of Sabri's killing instantly sparked nationwide outrage and condemnation.
Democrat John Lewis, a United States congressman from Georgia, led a charge today in one of the more unusual political protests in recent history.
At issue was trying to get a vote on gun control.
"We have turned deaf ears to the blood of the innocent and the concern of our nation. We are blind to a crisis. Mr. Speaker, where is the heart of this body? Where is our soul? Those who pursue commonsense improvement are beaten down. Reason is criticized. Obstruction is praised.”
Well, then, a group of about three dozen Democrats in the House then staged a highly unusual sit-in in the chamber Wednesday to protest Republican refusal to hold a vote on restricting gun purchases in the aftermath of the Orlando mass shooting.
There were various lawmakers marched to the front of the chamber in the U.S. Capitol, announced they were protesting to force House Speaker Paul Ryan to keep the House in session during a scheduled week-long break next week.
Forces loyal to Libya's new "national unity" government in Tripoli have reportedly made gains inside the Islamic State-held coastal city of Sirte, while forces loyal to the rival government in Tobruk say they pushed back al-Qaeda militants in Benghazi. Edward Yeranian reports for VOA from Cairo.
Militiamen loyal to the "unity" government captured two districts inside Sirte amid heavy fighting and reports of casualties on both sides.
Ahmed Hadiya, a spokesman for pro-government military forces in Sirte, (said) that battles took place in several areas.
He says pro-government militiamen had pushed IS fighters out of the Zafran and Gharbiyat districts and cornered them in small pockets of the 700 districts.
Islamic State fighters were reported to be fighting fiercely, despite recent losses, using car bombs, suicide attackers and other booby-trapped objects.
Edward Yeranian, for VOA news, Cairo.
And, this is Joe Parker for VOA news from Washington.
That's the latest world news from VOA.

From Washington, this is VOA news. I'm David DeForest reporting. U.S. President Barack Obama says the United States and the European Union must move forward on a free trade agreement.
Despite opposition to the idea, Mr. Obama spoke during a joint news conference with German Chancellor Angela Merkel in Germany.
"During presidential elections, it's always tough when we're in the heat of campaigns. People naturally are going to worry more about what's lost than what's gained with respect to trade agreements. But I am confident that we're gonna be able to get this done.”
Opponents have been critical of what they perceive as negotiations carried out away from public scrutiny, and they fear the pact will hand too much power to big multinationals at the expense of consumers and workers.
Exit polls show the candidate of Austria's anti-immigration Freedom Party winning the first round of presidential elections, gathering more than 35 percent of the vote. The exit polls show the party beating five rivals, including nominees of the governing coalition.

CLIP DESCRIPTION:
Marty (Michael J. Fox) borrows a hover board to escape Griff's (Thomas F. Wilson) gang, but loses momentum over a pond.
FILM DESCRIPTION:
Things have barely settled from the excitement and resolve of the original Back to the Future, when in pops that crazy inventor Dr. Emmett Brown (Christopher Lloyd) with news that in order to prevent a series of events that could ruin the McFly name for posterity, Marty McFly (Michael J. Fox ) and his girlfriend are whisked into the future to the year 2015, where Marty must tangle with a teen rogue named Griff, who's obviously the descendant of Biff, the first Future film's bully. Marty foils Griff and his group when he jumps on an air-foil skateboard that flies him through town at rakish speeds with the loser bullies beaten again. Marty gets a money-making brainstorm before hopping in the time-traveling DeLorean, and he purchases a sports almanac. He figures that back in 1985 he'll be able to place sure-fire bets using the published sports scores of the games that are yet to happen. Unfortunately for Marty, Dr. Brown disapproves of his betting scheme -- he feels too much messing with time is very dangerous -- and he tosses the almanac. A hidden Biff overhears the discussion about the almanac, sees it get tossed out, and grabs it. Thus begins a time-traveling swirl to make the head spin. Biff swipes the DeLorean, heads back to 1955, and with the help of the unerring almanac, bets his way to power. The now-altered "Biff world" has turned into a nightmarish scene with Biff the mogul, residing in a Vegas-styled pleasure palace and running everything. It's all our hero Marty can do to pull the pieces together this time, as he must jump between three generations of intertwined time travel. The end of Back to the Future, Part 2 introduces its sequel as the zany professor has already time-dashed away to the Wild West of the late 1800s and invites Marty into a new adventure.

From Washington, this is VOA news. I'm Dave DeForest reporting. Europe struggles with a migrant issue.
European leaders meeting in Brussels are considering sending 400 border guards and setting up new checkpoints if the EU's frontier states drop their policy of giving migrants passage to other countries.
A draft statement also broached the possibility of deploying more ships off the coast of Greece and agreeing not to send migrants from one country to another without prior agreement.
Federica Mogherini is the EU foreign policy chief: "What is a stake here is the coherence of our response to process that is not going to disappear any time soon.”
Sunday's meeting is the latest in a series of top-level EU meetings.
Meanwhile, the flow of migrants though the Balkans toward western Europe continued unabated.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said Sunday adding video surveillance to the Temple Mount site in Jerusalem, referred to by Muslims as Noble Sanctuary, is in Israel's best interest.
U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry said Saturday Israel and Jordan have agreed on specific steps to help reduce violence, including the video monitoring.
"We have to join together in calling for an immediate end to violence. We must stress the importance of avoiding provocative actions and rhetoric." :John Kerry.
Syrian President Bashar al-Assad said Sunday eliminating the threat of what he called terrorists in his country would lead to a political solution to the civil war there.
He met with a group of Russian lawmakers in Damascus.
The Republic of Congo voted Sunday on constitutional changes that would allow President Denis Nguesso to seek another term.
The proposed amendments would abolish a two-term limit for presidents and an age limit of 70 for presidential candidates.
This is VOA news.
Tanzanians went to the polls Sunday to elect a new president and parliament.
Voting was peaceful in the capital and appeared to run smoothly, with no incidents of violence or unrest.

Turnout was reported large as voters faced a ballot featuring more than 50 presidential candidates.
Long lines were seen at some polling stations in the capital, Port-au-Prince, before the voting ended.
In Ivory Coast is holding the first round of presidential elections Sunday.
President Alassane Ouattara widely expected to win says he wants a "first round know-out victory.”
Reporter Emilie Iob says he has good reason to expect that.
"Three candidates already pulled out of the race, so that's why Alassane Ouattara believes that wining on the first round is more possible for him. Because the rest of the candidates are not big enough, at least some of them believe to beat him." :Emilie Iob.
Argentines are voting in elections to choose their next president, the successor to President Cristina Fernandez de Kirchner.
Fernandez's chosen successor, Daniel Scioli, is leading in early vote counting.
It's not certain whether he will get enough votes to avoid a runoff.

Jimmy Morales, a former TV comedian with no political experience, appears poised to beat former first lady Sandra Torres, according to opinion surveys.
People in Poland voted Sunday in a parliamentary election, choosing 460 lawmakers in the lower house and 100 in the Senate.
Based on an exit poll, it appears the opposition Law and Justice Party has gained a big victory, getting enough seats in parliament to govern alone.
The world would be a better place if dictators such as Iraq's Saddam Hussein and Libya's Moammar Gadhafi were still in power, according to top Republican U.S. presidential hopeful Donald Trump. He mad the comments Sunday.
Calling Iraq the "Harvard of terrorism," Trump told CNN's State of the Union the country had turned into a "training ground for terrorists.”

In the two-minute video shared by the Kurdistan Regional Security Council, several commandos in uniform are seen leading a group of men quickly between rooms as non-stop gunfire crackles nearby.
Former British Prime Minister Tony Blair has apologized for what he calls "mistakes" made during the U.S.-led invasion of Iraq.
In an interview with CNN, Blair also cites the invasion as a trigger for current conflicts in the region, including the rise of the Islamic State group in Iraq and Syria.

From Washington, this is VOA news. Coming up, dealing with the Islamic State insurgency. The latest on the Ebola outbreak.
The U.S. military is widening its campaign against Islamic State militants, launching 4 airstrikes Sunday on insurgents threatening to take over the Haditha Dam in western Iraq.
U.S. officials said Iraq remains in control of the dam, a major source of water and electrical power. U.S. Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel said securing the dam (was) crucial.
"If that dam would fall into ISIL's hand, or if that dam would be destroyed, the damage that that would cause would be very significant. And it would put a significant, additional and big risk into the mix in Iraq." U.S. Defense chief Chuck Hagel speaking Sunday in Tbilisi, Georgia.
President Obama says he will outline his "game plan" to deal with the threat posed by Islamic State militants this week.
Mr. Obama told NBC television's Meet the Press program in an interview broadcast on Sunday that he will meet with congressional leaders Tuesday to discuss the matter.
He stressed the U.S. does not plan to send ground troops into Iraq.
Authorities in Sierra Leone are ordering people to stay at home for 3 days this month as part of an effort to stop the spread of the Ebola virus.
Doctors Without Borders has criticized the measure saying it could lead to people trying to conceal infections.
A Sierra Leone government spokesman says people will not be allowed to leave their homes from late September 18th until September the 21st.
A lockdown last month in an area of Monrovia, Liberia, sparked riots.
Ebola has ravaged Liberia, Guinea, Sierra Leone and Nigeria since March.
This is VOA news.
Somalia has removed its top intelligence official and is on high alert following the Monday killing of an al-Shabab leader in a U.S. airstrike.
National Security Director Abdulahi Mohamed Ali had only held the post for 2 months. He was appointed in July as part of a major overhaul of Somalia's security services.
The decision comes as Somali officials put the country on high alert after the militant group al-Shabab confirmed the death of its leader, Ahmed Abdi Godane, in a U.S. airstrike last week.
Fighting and shelling in eastern Ukraine has put the 2-day-old cease-fire between Kyiv and pro-Russia separatists in jeopardy.
Shelling near the Donetsk airport on Sunday set 2 houses on fire in a small village, and clashes near the city of Mariupol killed a civilian and wounded 3 others.
Both sides blamed the other for shattering the truce.
The U.N. refugee agency is warning time is running out to get 100s of 1000s of displaced Iraqis ready for winter.

The U.N. refugee agency says "time is of the essence." It notes winter is approaching fast and work to reinforce 10ts and other housing must be accelerated before the snow, rain and mud add to the misery of 100,000s of people displaced inside Iraq.
Iraq currently is sweltering under average temperatures of 40 degrees Celsius. In less than 3 months, temperatures will dip to below 10 degrees Celsius and the rains will begin.
The UNHCR says its winterization program is off to a late start because of the multiple crises which keep cropping up in this conflict-ridden country.
Lisa Schlein, for VOA news, Geneva.

This is the VOA Special English Agriculture Report, from http://voaspecialenglish.com
People might think that beets are always dark red. But this tasty root vegetable also comes in other colors. There are pink, yellow and white beets, and beets with circles of red and white inside. These are known as candy cane or candy stripe beets.
Beets are high in nutrients including folate, iron and fiber. They can be eaten fresh or frozen, canned or pickled. And not just the root but also the tops can be eaten. The leaves make good salads when the plants are young, and the greens can be cooked when the plants are older.
Beets do not require much work to grow. They like cool temperatures, between sixteen and eighteen degrees Celsius. They grow best in full sun and in loose soil that is not too wet.
Remove stones from the soil while preparing the ground. And test the soil before adding lime and fertilizer.
Some experts say the best fertilizers for beets are low in nitrogen.
Beets need the acidity level in the soil to be six to seven and a half.
Beet seeds can be planted as soon as the soil is able to be worked at the start of the growing season.
Planting them every two or three weeks will provide a continuous harvest into the fall.
Cindy Haynes at Iowa State University suggests planting the seeds one and one-quarter centimeters deep.
They should be planted in rows
that are spaced thirty to
forty-six centimeters apart.
Overcrowding the plants will mean that the roots cannot spread out and grow. Thin the beets by removing
the smaller ones. These can be
used as greens.
Cindy Haynes says little or no fertilizer is needed in fertile soils. But once the seeds are planted, she does suggest covering the soil with a little mulch to protect it during rains and dry periods. She also suggests putting a fence around the plants to keep away
rabbits and deer.
She says the only work needed once beets have been thinned is weeding and, when the weather is dry,
a weekly watering.
Some people like beets prepared simply in butter. Others like to cook them with cinnamon and ginger.
However you like them, for best results, beets should be picked when they are four to five centimeters across. Beets much larger than that can be tough and have to be cooked for a long time. And thats the VOA Special English Agriculture Report.

From Washington, this is VOA news. A cease-fire in Syria is broken by snipers. Iranian officials resume discussion on nuclear weapons. I'm Vincent Bruce reporting from Washington.
Saturday in Syria, UN and various aid agencies attempted to deliver aid to the besieged city of Homs, Syria's third largest city, now a battle ground of sectarian conflict. However, sniper fire Saturday morning stalled the aid operation despite a promise by the government and rebels of the 3-day cease-fire.
Edward Yeranian reports for VOA from Cairo.
A pro-Syrian Lebanese news channel claimed the aid operation was stopped after Islamic militants violated a truce and fired on security forces.
Homs governor Talal al-Barazi told the official Syrian news agency, SANA, that rebel mortar shells hit a police building in New Clock Square. He insisted, however, that the operation will continue.
Barazi also vowed the civilians evacuated from the city Friday will be allowed to return to their homes in neighborhoods soon.
A rebel spokesman inside Homs told Sky News Arabia it was government forces that broke the truce and accused them of trying to disrupt the UN-brokered relief plan.
Edward Yeranian, for VOA news, Cairo.

Elsewhere in Iran, an Iranian naval commander says Iran has ordered several warships to approach US maritime borders as a response to the stationing of US Navy vessels in the Persian Gulf.
Iranian media Saturday quoted Admiral Afshin Rezayee Haddad as saying that a destroyer and a helicopter-carrying supply ship have already entered the Atlantic Ocean via waters near South Africa.
Leftist Egyptian politician Hamdeen Sabahi has announced he will run for President in this year's election.
Sabahi told his supporters in Cairo Saturday that he will wage a clear battle for the revolution.
Sabahi finished third in the 2012 election that brought Mohamed Morsi to power. Sabahi became a constant critic of the Islamist Morsi until the army toppled him last year.
In Saudi Arabia, at least 15 people are dead after a fire broke out at a hotel filled with Muslim pilgrims.
Authorities say the hotel is located in the Saudi holy city of Medina in the country's west.
Television reports from Egypt say Egyptians were among those killed. At least 130 people were injured.
It was not clear what started the fire.
Investigators say the Ukrainian man who tried to hijack a Turkey-bound commercial flight with 110 passengers on board and divert it to Sochi was demanding the release of prisoners in his country.
Of the would-be hijacker, a spokesman for the Ukrainian Security Service investigation department, Maxim Lenko, said a passenger on the plane about an hour after the plane took off broke into the cockpit demanding the plane change its course to Sochi.
The crew strained the suspect and the plane landed safely in Istanbul, and no explosives or weapons were found on board.
An aging skier made history on the 1st day of team competition at the 2014 Winter Olympics in Sochi, Russia.

Speedskater Sven Kramer of the Netherlands also had a memorable day. He defended his title in the men's 5,000 meters, winning gold with an Olympic-record time of 6 minutes, 10.76 2nds.
The United States captured the 1st gold medal of the Sochi Games. Sage Kotsenburg mastered a perilous course to win the inaugural men's snowboard slopestyle event.

From Washington, This is VOA news. Pistorius found guilty of culpable homicide and U.S. military prepares for multi-year operations in Mideast .
I’m Bill Michaels, reporting from Washington. U.S. President Barack Obama has ordered military action to beat back Islamic state militants in Iraq and Syria. VOA’s Carla Babb has more from the Pentagon.
An additional 475 U.S. troops are heading to Iraq to assist local forces in their fight against Islamic State. In all more than 1600 U.S. military personnel will be in the country, costing U.S. taxpayers an average of more than !$7,500,000 each day. U.S. officials and analysts say attacking a force that has spread as much as the Islamic State Group will take time. Elliott Abrams, who was a security adviser to former President George W Bush, says the fight is expected to be a multi-year project that will likely carry into the next Presidency. “Because the threat that we’re facing from the Islamic State has grown to the point where there are no simple answers.”
Experts have been trying to analyze whether the fight is winnable without U.S. combat troops on the ground. Abrams says it can be won precisely because Islamic state militants are behaving differently from their al-Qaeda predecessors. Carla Babb, VOA news, the Pentagon. South African track star Oscar Pistorius has been found guilty of culpable homicide but cleared of other more serious murder charges in connection with the killing of his girlfriend. Judge Thokozile Masipa, ”the accused is found not guilty and is discharged. Instead, he is found guilty of culpable homicide.”
This is VOA news. The European Union has imposed a new package of economic sanctions against Russia because of its actions in Ukraine. The new sanctions went into effect today and targeted Russian oil and defense firms. The latest EU restrictions also impose sanctions on individuals including Russian figures and Ukrainian rebels. European Council President, Herman Van Rompuy, has said the sanctions may be amended, suspended or repealed in all, or in part, after a review of the ceasefire in Ukraine by the end of September. Russia said it would retaliate to the new sanctions immediately but did not announce details.
In recent days, Russian officials have threatened to ban U.S. airlines from Russian airspace, a move that could force long and costly detours for flights to East Asia. A ceasefire is holding in Ukraine's eastern region. In this report from Washington, VOA’s senior correspondent Andre de Nesnera spoke with former U.S. ambassador Jack Matlock, a longtime expert on Russia, about the situation in Ukraine. Senior Russian officials including Foreign Minister, Sergei Lavrov, have recently stated there is no military intervention from Russia.
But the last U.S. ambassador to the Soviet Union, Jack Matlock, disagrees.
“Obviously their intervening, I think they would say, 'look, you guys intervene wherever you want to. You even invade, like the United States invaded Iraq, which had not attacked it, and we are essentially using the same methods.'” Some experts have indicated that Russian Vladimir Putin wants more than just to gain influence in that region. That he eventually wants to annex eastern Ukraine.
“I don’t think there is an intent to take it into Russia. It would be a totally irrational intent, this is an economically-depressed area.” Andre de Nesnera, VOA news, Washington. The Australian government has raised its terror threat level to high, the 2nd highest level, on concerns about threats from domestic Islamic state supporters. Prime Minister Tony Abbott told a news conference today that the move was not based on knowledge of a specific attack plan, but rather intelligence that there are people with intent and the capability to mount attacks. Mr. Abbott said the terrorist threat level had been rising in Australia over the past year due in part Australians joining the Islamic state to fight in Syria and Iraq. Australia estimates up to 60 of its citizens are fighting alongside the militants while another 100 are actively supporting extremist groups from within Australia. Reporting from Washington, I’m Bill Michaels and this is VOA news. That’s the latest world news from VOA.

The both sides are making last-minute emotional pleas to those undecided with less than 24 hours before the vote gets underway. From London, VOA's Luis Ramirez has more. There are warnings that leaving the 28-member bloc may cause the British pound to lose 15 percent of its value and bring the resignation of the country's prime minister, whose mandate depends on whether Britain listens to him and votes to remain. "If we choose to leave, we can leave. But let's be clear if we do leave, that's it. We are walking out the door.” Polls since the June 16th murder showed the Leave camp losing ground, but both sides still very close ahead of a referendum that many believe may change the course of European history. Luis Ramirez, VOA news, London. Which is how are officials here in the U.S. looking at Brexit and its possible ramifications. Well, few authorities on the financial stage carry more weight than the chairman of the Federal Reserve, Janet Yellen. "Well, it is a risk that we are monitoring. I've said that. We will be watching closely to see what the vote is and what possible repercussions it might have.” She says it's not what inevitably will happen. The concern is so bad what might happen. "I don't know Brexit poll would have significant consequences for us but it could, and I think it's important to take that into account.” She has no emergency meetings regarding the Brexit vote scheduled regardless of the outcome. This is VOA news. The voice of Amjad Sabri, a renounced singer of Sufi devotional music. Sabri was shot and killed today by two unknown men in Pakistan's southern port city of Karachi. Police say two men riding a motorcycle fired on Amjad Sabri's car and fled the scene. The 45-year-old singer succumbed to his wounds as he was being driven to a hospital. No one has claimed responsibility. The news of Sabri's killing instantly sparked nationwide outrage and condemnation. Democrat John Lewis, a United States congressman from Georgia, led a charge today in one of the more unusual political protests in recent history. At issue was trying to get a vote on gun control. "We have turned deaf ears to the blood of the innocent and the concern of our nation. We are blind to a crisis. Mr. Speaker, where is the heart of this body? Where is our soul? Those who pursue commonsense improvement are beaten down. Reason is criticized. Obstruction is praised.” Well, then, a group of about three dozen Democrats in the House then staged a highly unusual sit-in in the chamber Wednesday to protest Republican refusal to hold a vote on restricting gun purchases in the aftermath of the Orlando mass shooting. There were various lawmakers marched to the front of the chamber in the U.S. Capitol, announced they were protesting to force House Speaker Paul Ryan to keep the House in session during a scheduled week-long break next week. Forces loyal to Libya's new "national unity" government in Tripoli have reportedly made gains inside the Islamic State-held coastal city of Sirte, while forces loyal to the rival government in Tobruk say they pushed back al-Qaeda militants in Benghazi. Edward Yeranian reports for VOA from Cairo. Militiamen loyal to the "unity" government captured two districts inside Sirte amid heavy fighting and reports of casualties on both sides. Ahmed Hadiya, a spokesman for pro-government military forces in Sirte, (said) that battles took place in several areas. He says pro-government militiamen had pushed IS fighters out of the Zafran and Gharbiyat districts and cornered them in small pockets of the 700 districts. Islamic State fighters were reported to be fighting fiercely, despite recent losses, using car bombs, suicide attackers and other booby-trapped objects. Edward Yeranian, for VOA news, Cairo.

VOA news for Monday, April 25th, 2016 Thanks to http://gandalf.ddo.jp/ for audio and text From Washington, this is VOA news. I'm David DeForest reporting. U.S. President Barack Obama says the United States and the European Union must move forward on a free trade agreement. Despite opposition to the idea, Mr. Obama spoke during a joint news conference with German Chancellor Angela Merkel in Germany. "During presidential elections, it's always tough when we're in the heat of campaigns. People naturally are going to worry more about what's lost than what's gained with respect to trade agreements. But I am confident that we're gonna be able to get this done.” Opponents have been critical of what they perceive as negotiations carried out away from public scrutiny, and they fear the pact will hand too much power to big multinationals at the expense of consumers and workers. Exit polls show the candidate of Austria's anti-immigration Freedom Party winning the first round of presidential elections, gathering more than 35 percent of the vote. The exit polls show the party beating five rivals, including nominees of the governing coalition. Preliminary vote tallies in Serbia show the coalition of pro-European (Union) parties led by Prime Minister Aleksandar Vucic sweeping to a landslide victory in Sunday's general elections. Monitors report Vucic's Progressive Party has nearly 53 percent of the vote and the Socialists who are in the ruling coalition have an additional 13 percent. U.S. President Barack Obama says he will not consider sending U.S. ground troops into Syria. The president said there needs to be more than just a military effort to solve Syria's problems. This is VOA news. The United Nations Security Council has condemned North Korea for its submarine launched ballistic missile test Saturday. The North Korean government is calling a submarine launched test a great success. But, a South Korean Foreign Ministry spokesman condemned the test. Officials from that country called it a failure. Egyptian protesters who mounted anti-government demonstrations on April 15 to express their anger with a presidential decision to give two Red Sea islands to Saudi Arabia as gifts have vowed to stage mass sit-ins Monday to mark a patriotic holiday, Sinai Liberation Day. A group of lawyers says Egypt authorities have arrested dozens of activists ahead of the planned protests. In a televised address Sunday, President Abdel Fattah el-Sissi urged Egyptians to protect the state and its institutions from what he called the "forces of evil.” A Dutch journalist was arrested by Turkish police early Sunday at her home in Turkey after she made a negative statement about President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan on Twitter. Ebru Umar, a well-known columnist for the Dutch Metro newspaper, tweeted that police were at the front door of her home late Saturday night and they were taking her to a police station for questioning. A Dutch Foreign Ministry spokesman confirmed that Umar had been detained but gave no details. An electoral commission says 98 percent of voters in Sudan's Darfur region have voted against uniting the region's five separate states into one. A Darfur election official said Saturday 3.2 million of Darfur's 3.5 million registered voters cast ballots in the election. Papa Wemba, a musician known around the world as the king of Congolese rumba, died early Sunday after collapsing on stage in Ivory Coast. He was 66. Papa Wemba had performed three songs at the Urban Musical Festival Anoumabo in Abidjan before collapsing in front of thousands of fans. Fellow performers rushed to his aid, but he died before reaching the hospital. The cause of death was not immediately known. Businessman Donald Trump, trying to lock up the U.S. Republican presidential nomination, says he continues to believe in his anti-immigrant proposals. One of his key campaign aides, Paul Manafort, told party leaders last week Trump [was been] has been playing "a part" in the campaign and that he is "evolving" into a more traditional candidate. But Trump assured a rally of supporters in Connecticut that he has no intention of abandoning a proposal to temporarily keep Muslims out of the country and to build a wall to block illegal immigrants from Mexico.

Back to the Future Part II movie clips: http://j.mp/15vNT54 BUY THE MOVIE: http://amzn.to/uqm0MM Don't miss the HOTTEST NEW TRAILERS: http://bit.ly/1u2y6pr CLIP DESCRIPTION: Marty (Michael J. Fox) borrows a hover board to escape Griff's (Thomas F. Wilson) gang, but loses momentum over a pond. FILM DESCRIPTION: Things have barely settled from the excitement and resolve of the original Back to the Future, when in pops that crazy inventor Dr. Emmett Brown (Christopher Lloyd) with news that in order to prevent a series of events that could ruin the McFly name for posterity, Marty McFly (Michael J. Fox ) and his girlfriend are whisked into the future to the year 2015, where Marty must tangle with a teen rogue named Griff, who's obviously the descendant of Biff, the first Future film's bully. Marty foils Griff and his group when he jumps on an air-foil skateboard that flies him through town at rakish speeds with the loser bullies beaten again. Marty gets a money-making brainstorm before hopping in the time-traveling DeLorean, and he purchases a sports almanac. He figures that back in 1985 he'll be able to place sure-fire bets using the published sports scores of the games that are yet to happen. Unfortunately for Marty, Dr. Brown disapproves of his betting scheme -- he feels too much messing with time is very dangerous -- and he tosses the almanac. A hidden Biff overhears the discussion about the almanac, sees it get tossed out, and grabs it. Thus begins a time-traveling swirl to make the head spin. Biff swipes the DeLorean, heads back to 1955, and with the help of the unerring almanac, bets his way to power. The now-altered "Biff world" has turned into a nightmarish scene with Biff the mogul, residing in a Vegas-styled pleasure palace and running everything. It's all our hero Marty can do to pull the pieces together this time, as he must jump between three generations of intertwined time travel. The end of Back to the Future, Part 2 introduces its sequel as the zany professor has already time-dashed away to the Wild West of the late 1800s and invites Marty into a new adventure.

Thanks to http://gandalf.ddo.jp/ for audio and text Monday, October 26th, 2015 From Washington, this is VOA news. I'm Dave DeForest reporting. Europe struggles with a migrant issue. European leaders meeting in Brussels are considering sending 400 border guards and setting up new checkpoints if the EU's frontier states drop their policy of giving migrants passage to other countries. A draft statement also broached the possibility of deploying more ships off the coast of Greece and agreeing not to send migrants from one country to another without prior agreement. Federica Mogherini is the EU foreign policy chief: "What is a stake here is the coherence of our response to process that is not going to disappear any time soon.” Sunday's meeting is the latest in a series of top-level EU meetings. Meanwhile, the flow of migrants though the Balkans toward western Europe continued unabated. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said Sunday adding video surveillance to the Temple Mount site in Jerusalem, referred to by Muslims as Noble Sanctuary, is in Israel's best interest. U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry said Saturday Israel and Jordan have agreed on specific steps to help reduce violence, including the video monitoring. "We have to join together in calling for an immediate end to violence. We must stress the importance of avoiding provocative actions and rhetoric." :John Kerry. Syrian President Bashar al-Assad said Sunday eliminating the threat of what he called terrorists in his country would lead to a political solution to the civil war there. He met with a group of Russian lawmakers in Damascus. The Republic of Congo voted Sunday on constitutional changes that would allow President Denis Nguesso to seek another term. The proposed amendments would abolish a two-term limit for presidents and an age limit of 70 for presidential candidates. This is VOA news. Tanzanians went to the polls Sunday to elect a new president and parliament. Voting was peaceful in the capital and appeared to run smoothly, with no incidents of violence or unrest. Haitians voted for a new president Sunday. Turnout was reported large as voters faced a ballot featuring more than 50 presidential candidates. Long lines were seen at some polling stations in the capital, Port-au-Prince, before the voting ended. In Ivory Coast is holding the first round of presidential elections Sunday. President Alassane Ouattara widely expected to win says he wants a "first round know-out victory.” Reporter Emilie Iob says he has good reason to expect that. "Three candidates already pulled out of the race, so that's why Alassane Ouattara believes that wining on the first round is more possible for him. Because the rest of the candidates are not big enough, at least some of them believe to beat him." :Emilie Iob. Argentines are voting in elections to choose their next president, the successor to President Cristina Fernandez de Kirchner. Fernandez's chosen successor, Daniel Scioli, is leading in early vote counting. It's not certain whether he will get enough votes to avoid a runoff. Looking for a fresh start, Guatemalans went to the polls today and elected a comedian as president of their country. Jimmy Morales, a former TV comedian with no political experience, appears poised to beat former first lady Sandra Torres, according to opinion surveys. People in Poland voted Sunday in a parliamentary election, choosing 460 lawmakers in the lower house and 100 in the Senate. Based on an exit poll, it appears the opposition Law and Justice Party has gained a big victory, getting enough seats in parliament to govern alone. The world would be a better place if dictators such as Iraq's Saddam Hussein and Libya's Moammar Gadhafi were still in power, according to top Republican U.S. presidential hopeful Donald Trump. He mad the comments Sunday. Calling Iraq the "Harvard of terrorism," Trump told CNN's State of the Union the country had turned into a "training ground for terrorists.” A video posted online Sunday reportedly shows a joint U.S. and peshmerga raid on an Islamic State prison in northern Iraq last week that freed 69 hostages. In the two-minute video shared by the Kurdistan Regional Security Council, several commandos in uniform are seen leading a group of men quickly between rooms as non-stop gunfire crackles nearby. Former British Prime Minister Tony Blair has apologized for what he calls "mistakes" made during the U.S.-led invasion of Iraq. In an interview with CNN, Blair also cites the invasion as a trigger for current conflicts in the region, including the rise of the Islamic State group in Iraq and Syria.

Thanks to http://gandalf.ddo.jp/ for audio and text Monday, September 8th, 2014 From Washington, this is VOA news. Coming up, dealing with the Islamic State insurgency. The latest on the Ebola outbreak. The U.S. military is widening its campaign against Islamic State militants, launching 4 airstrikes Sunday on insurgents threatening to take over the Haditha Dam in western Iraq. U.S. officials said Iraq remains in control of the dam, a major source of water and electrical power. U.S. Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel said securing the dam (was) crucial. "If that dam would fall into ISIL's hand, or if that dam would be destroyed, the damage that that would cause would be very significant. And it would put a significant, additional and big risk into the mix in Iraq." U.S. Defense chief Chuck Hagel speaking Sunday in Tbilisi, Georgia. President Obama says he will outline his "game plan" to deal with the threat posed by Islamic State militants this week. Mr. Obama told NBC television's Meet the Press program in an interview broadcast on Sunday that he will meet with congressional leaders Tuesday to discuss the matter. He stressed the U.S. does not plan to send ground troops into Iraq. Authorities in Sierra Leone are ordering people to stay at home for 3 days this month as part of an effort to stop the spread of the Ebola virus. Doctors Without Borders has criticized the measure saying it could lead to people trying to conceal infections. A Sierra Leone government spokesman says people will not be allowed to leave their homes from late September 18th until September the 21st. A lockdown last month in an area of Monrovia, Liberia, sparked riots. Ebola has ravaged Liberia, Guinea, Sierra Leone and Nigeria since March. This is VOA news. Somalia has removed its top intelligence official and is on high alert following the Monday killing of an al-Shabab leader in a U.S. airstrike. National Security Director Abdulahi Mohamed Ali had only held the post for 2 months. He was appointed in July as part of a major overhaul of Somalia's security services. The decision comes as Somali officials put the country on high alert after the militant group al-Shabab confirmed the death of its leader, Ahmed Abdi Godane, in a U.S. airstrike last week. Fighting and shelling in eastern Ukraine has put the 2-day-old cease-fire between Kyiv and pro-Russia separatists in jeopardy. Shelling near the Donetsk airport on Sunday set 2 houses on fire in a small village, and clashes near the city of Mariupol killed a civilian and wounded 3 others. Both sides blamed the other for shattering the truce. The U.N. refugee agency is warning time is running out to get 100s of 1000s of displaced Iraqis ready for winter. The UNHCR says accommodations must be arranged and supplies prepositioned before the cold weather hits in less than 3 months. Lisa Schlein reporting from the UNHCR headquarters in Geneva. The U.N. refugee agency says "time is of the essence." It notes winter is approaching fast and work to reinforce 10ts and other housing must be accelerated before the snow, rain and mud add to the misery of 100,000s of people displaced inside Iraq. Iraq currently is sweltering under average temperatures of 40 degrees Celsius. In less than 3 months, temperatures will dip to below 10 degrees Celsius and the rains will begin. The UNHCR says its winterization program is off to a late start because of the multiple crises which keep cropping up in this conflict-ridden country. Lisa Schlein, for VOA news, Geneva. The September 11th Museum in New York has unveiled some items related to the successful 2011 raid against Osama bin Laden in Pakistan. The new exhibit that opened Sunday includes a shirt worn by one of the U.S. Navy SEALs who took part in the raid, a brick from the compound where bin Laden died and a commemorative coin donated [by] to a CIA operative who relentlessly pursued the al-Qaeda leader. In sports news, American Serena Williams has won the third consecutive U.S. Open women's 10nis championship in a dominating performance on Sunday evening in Flushing Meadows, New York. 32-year-old Williams beat her good friend, 24-year-old Caroline Wozniacki of Denmark in straight sets of 6-3, 6-3.

4:03Want to Grow a Root? Beets Are Hard to Beat
Want to Grow a Root? Beets Are Hard to BeatWant to Grow a Root? Beets Are Hard to Beat
This is the VOA Special English Agriculture Report, from http://voaspecialenglish.com People might think that beets are always dark red. But this tasty root vegetable also comes in other colors. There are pink, yellow and white beets, and beets with circles of red and white inside. These are known as candy cane or candy stripe beets. Beets are high in nutrients including folate, iron and fiber. They can be eaten fresh or frozen, canned or pickled. And not just the root but also the tops can be eaten. The leaves make good salads when the plants are young, and the greens can be cooked when the plants are older. Beets do not require much work to grow. They like cool temperatures, between sixteen and eighteen degrees Celsius. They grow best in full sun and in loose soil that is not too wet. Remove stones from the soil while preparing the ground. And test the soil before adding lime and fertilizer. Some experts say the best fertilizers for beets are low in nitrogen. Beets need the acidity level in the soil to be six to seven and a half. Beet seeds can be planted as soon as the soil is able to be worked at the start of the growing season. Planting them every two or three weeks will provide a continuous harvest into the fall. Cindy Haynes at Iowa State University suggests planting the seeds one and one-quarter centimeters deep. They should be planted in rows that are spaced thirty to forty-six centimeters apart. Overcrowding the plants will mean that the roots cannot spread out and grow. Thin the beets by removing the smaller ones. These can be used as greens. Cindy Haynes says little or no fertilizer is needed in fertile soils. But once the seeds are planted, she does suggest covering the soil with a little mulch to protect it during rains and dry periods. She also suggests putting a fence around the plants to keep away rabbits and deer. She says the only work needed once beets have been thinned is weeding and, when the weather is dry, a weekly watering. Some people like beets prepared simply in butter. Others like to cook them with cinnamon and ginger. However you like them, for best results, beets should be picked when they are four to five centimeters across. Beets much larger than that can be tough and have to be cooked for a long time. And thats the VOA Special English Agriculture Report.

Iranian officials resume discussion on nuclear weapons. I'm Vincent Bruce reporting from Washington. Saturday in Syria, UN and various aid agencies attempted to deliver aid to the besieged city of Homs, Syria's third largest city, now a battle ground of sectarian conflict. However, sniper fire Saturday morning stalled the aid operation despite a promise by the government and rebels of the 3-day cease-fire. Edward Yeranian reports for VOA from Cairo. A pro-Syrian Lebanese news channel claimed the aid operation was stopped after Islamic militants violated a truce and fired on security forces. Homs governor Talal al-Barazi told the official Syrian news agency, SANA, that rebel mortar shells hit a police building in New Clock Square. He insisted, however, that the operation will continue. Barazi also vowed the civilians evacuated from the city Friday will be allowed to return to their homes in neighborhoods soon. A rebel spokesman inside Homs told Sky News Arabia it was government forces that broke the truce and accused them of trying to disrupt the UN-brokered relief plan. Edward Yeranian, for VOA news, Cairo. More on this story at voanews.com. Representatives from Iran and the International Atomic Energy Agency resumed talks on Iran's nuclear program Saturday. A spokesman for Iran's Atomic Energy Organization was quoted by the nation's official (news agency). He says Iran's consultations with the United Nations nuclear agency will continue on Sunday. Elsewhere in Iran, an Iranian naval commander says Iran has ordered several warships to approach US maritime borders as a response to the stationing of US Navy vessels in the Persian Gulf. Iranian media Saturday quoted Admiral Afshin Rezayee Haddad as saying that a destroyer and a helicopter-carrying supply ship have already entered the Atlantic Ocean via waters near South Africa. Leftist Egyptian politician Hamdeen Sabahi has announced he will run for President in this year's election. Sabahi told his supporters in Cairo Saturday that he will wage a clear battle for the revolution. Sabahi finished third in the 2012 election that brought Mohamed Morsi to power. Sabahi became a constant critic of the Islamist Morsi until the army toppled him last year. In Saudi Arabia, at least 15 people are dead after a fire broke out at a hotel filled with Muslim pilgrims. Authorities say the hotel is located in the Saudi holy city of Medina in the country's west. Television reports from Egypt say Egyptians were among those killed. At least 130 people were injured. It was not clear what started the fire. Investigators say the Ukrainian man who tried to hijack a Turkey-bound commercial flight with 110 passengers on board and divert it to Sochi was demanding the release of prisoners in his country. Of the would-be hijacker, a spokesman for the Ukrainian Security Service investigation department, Maxim Lenko, said a passenger on the plane about an hour after the plane took off broke into the cockpit demanding the plane change its course to Sochi. The crew strained the suspect and the plane landed safely in Istanbul, and no explosives or weapons were found on board. An aging skier made history on the 1st day of team competition at the 2014 Winter Olympics in Sochi, Russia. Norway's Ole Einar Bjoerndalen became the oldest Winter Olympic gold medalist in an individual sport. The 40-year-old man finished 1st in the biathlon 10-kilometer sprint, beating the age record held by Canadian skeleton racer Duff Gibson, at 39 years old in the 2006 Turin Olympics. Speedskater Sven Kramer of the Netherlands also had a memorable day. He defended his title in the men's 5,000 meters, winning gold with an Olympic-record time of 6 minutes, 10.76 2nds. The United States captured the 1st gold medal of the Sochi Games. Sage Kotsenburg mastered a perilous course to win the inaugural men's snowboard slopestyle event. Sunday marks the 50th anniversary of the Beatles American television debut on the Ed Sullivan Show, beginning what was known as "Beatlemania" in the US. Americans across the country are celebrating that legendary pop culture phenomenon with Beatles tributes from Capitol Records Tower in Los Angeles to JFK Airport in New York, where the band 1st landed on American soil. A CBS TV special late Sunday gives Beatles fans a rare treat-- Paul McCartney and Ringo Starr, the only 2 [remember] remaining of the [five] 4 will reunite.

Friday, September 12th, 2014 From Washington, This is VOA news. Pistorius found guilty of culpable homicide and U.S. military prepares for multi-year operations in Mideast . I’m Bill Michaels, reporting from Washington. U.S. President Barack Obama has ordered military action to beat back Islamic state militants in Iraq and Syria. VOA’s Carla Babb has more from the Pentagon. An additional 475 U.S. troops are heading to Iraq to assist local forces in their fight against Islamic State. In all more than 1600 U.S. military personnel will be in the country, costing U.S. taxpayers an average of more than !$7,500,000 each day. U.S. officials and analysts say attacking a force that has spread as much as the Islamic State Group will take time. Elliott Abrams, who was a security adviser to former President George W Bush, says the fight is expected to be a multi-year project that will likely carry into the next Presidency. “Because the threat that we’re facing from the Islamic State has grown to the point where there are no simple answers.” Experts have been trying to analyze whether the fight is winnable without U.S. combat troops on the ground. Abrams says it can be won precisely because Islamic state militants are behaving differently from their al-Qaeda predecessors. Carla Babb, VOA news, the Pentagon. South African track star Oscar Pistorius has been found guilty of culpable homicide but cleared of other more serious murder charges in connection with the killing of his girlfriend. Judge Thokozile Masipa, ”the accused is found not guilty and is discharged. Instead, he is found guilty of culpable homicide.” This is VOA news. The European Union has imposed a new package of economic sanctions against Russia because of its actions in Ukraine. The new sanctions went into effect today and targeted Russian oil and defense firms. The latest EU restrictions also impose sanctions on individuals including Russian figures and Ukrainian rebels. European Council President, Herman Van Rompuy, has said the sanctions may be amended, suspended or repealed in all, or in part, after a review of the ceasefire in Ukraine by the end of September. Russia said it would retaliate to the new sanctions immediately but did not announce details. In recent days, Russian officials have threatened to ban U.S. airlines from Russian airspace, a move that could force long and costly detours for flights to East Asia. A ceasefire is holding in Ukraine's eastern region. In this report from Washington, VOA’s senior correspondent Andre de Nesnera spoke with former U.S. ambassador Jack Matlock, a longtime expert on Russia, about the situation in Ukraine. Senior Russian officials including Foreign Minister, Sergei Lavrov, have recently stated there is no military intervention from Russia. But the last U.S. ambassador to the Soviet Union, Jack Matlock, disagrees. “Obviously their intervening, I think they would say, 'look, you guys intervene wherever you want to. You even invade, like the United States invaded Iraq, which had not attacked it, and we are essentially using the same methods.'” Some experts have indicated that Russian Vladimir Putin wants more than just to gain influence in that region. That he eventually wants to annex eastern Ukraine. “I don’t think there is an intent to take it into Russia. It would be a totally irrational intent, this is an economically-depressed area.” Andre de Nesnera, VOA news, Washington. The Australian government has raised its terror threat level to high, the 2nd highest level, on concerns about threats from domestic Islamic state supporters. Prime Minister Tony Abbott told a news conference today that the move was not based on knowledge of a specific attack plan, but rather intelligence that there are people with intent and the capability to mount attacks. Mr. Abbott said the terrorist threat level had been rising in Australia over the past year due in part Australians joining the Islamic state to fight in Syria and Iraq. Australia estimates up to 60 of its citizens are fighting alongside the militants while another 100 are actively supporting extremist groups from within Australia. Reporting from Washington, I’m Bill Michaels and this is VOA news. That’s the latest world news from VOA.

The latest on the Ebola outbreak. The U.S. military is widening its campaign against Islamic State militants, launching 4 airstrikes Sunday on insurgents threatening to take over the Haditha Dam in western Iraq. U.S. officials said Iraq remains in control of the dam, a major source of water and electrical power. U.S. Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel said securing the dam (was) crucial. "If that dam would fall into ISIL's hand, or if that dam would be destroyed, the damage that that would cause would be very significant. And it would put a significant, additional and big risk into the mix in Iraq." U.S. Defense chief Chuc... -
Want to Grow a Root? Beets Are Hard to Beat
This is the VOA Special English Agriculture Report, from http://voaspecialenglish.com People might think that beets are always dark red. But this tasty root vegetable also comes in other colors. There are pink, yellow and white beets, and beets with circles of red and white inside. These are known as candy cane or candy stripe beets. Beets are high in nutrients including folate, iron and fiber. They can be eaten fresh or frozen, canned or pickled. And not just the root but also the tops can be eaten. The leaves make good salads when the plants are young, and the greens can be cooked when the plants are older. Beets do not require much work to grow. They like cool temperatures, between sixteen and eighteen degrees Celsius. They grow best in full sun and in loose soil that is not too w... -

VOA news for Thursday, June 23rd, 2016
Thanks to http://gandalf.ddo.jp/ for audio and text
From Washington, this is VOA news. I'm Joe Parker reporting. In Britain, the countdown is underway.
The countdown has begun for the Thursday referendum that will once and for all decide whether Britain remains in the European Union. The both sides are making last-minute emotional pleas to those undecided with less than 24 hours before the vote gets underway.
From London, VOA's Luis Ramirez has more.
There are warnings that leaving the 28-member bloc may cause the British pound to lose 15 percent of its value and bring the resignation of the country's prime minister, whose mandate depends on whether Britain listens to him and votes to remain.
"If we choose to leave, we can leave. But let's be clear if we do leave, that's it. We are walking out the door.”
Polls since the June 16th murder showed the Leave camp losing ground, but both sides still very close ahead of a referendum that many believe may change the course of European history.
Luis Ramirez, VOA news, London.
Which is how are officials here in the U.S. looking at Brexit and its possible ramifications.
Well, few authorities on the financial stage carry more weight than the chairman of the Federal Reserve, Janet Yellen.
"Well, it is a risk that we are monitoring. I've said that. We will be watching closely to see what the vote is and what possible repercussions it might have.”
She says it's not what inevitably will happen. The concern is so bad what might happen.
"I don't know Brexit poll would have significant consequences for us but it could, and I think it's important to take that into account.”
She has no emergency meetings regarding the Brexit vote scheduled regardless of the outcome.
This is VOA news.
The voice of Amjad Sabri, a renounced singer of Sufi devotional music. Sabri was shot and killed today by two unknown men in Pakistan's southern port city of Karachi.
Police say two men riding a motorcycle fired on Amjad Sabri's car and fled the scene. The 45-year-old singer succumbed to his wounds as he was being driven to a hospital.
No one has claimed responsibility.
The news of Sabri's killing instantly sparked nationwide outrage and condemnation.
Democrat John Lewis, a United States congressman from Georgia, led a charge today in one of the more unusual political protests in recent history.
At issue was trying to get a vote on gun control.
"We have turned deaf ears to the blood of the innocent and the concern of our nation. We are blind to a crisis. Mr. Speaker, where is the heart of this body? Where is our soul? Those who pursue commonsense improvement are beaten down. Reason is criticized. Obstruction is praised.”
Well, then, a group of about three dozen Democrats in the House then staged a highly unusual sit-in in the chamber Wednesday to protest Republican refusal to hold a vote on restricting gun purchases in the aftermath of the Orlando mass shooting.
There were various lawmakers marched to the front of the chamber in the U.S. Capitol, announced they were protesting to force House Speaker Paul Ryan to keep the House in session during a scheduled week-long break next week.
Forces loyal to Libya's new "national unity" government in Tripoli have reportedly made gains inside the Islamic State-held coastal city of Sirte, while forces loyal to the rival government in Tobruk say they pushed back al-Qaeda militants in Benghazi. Edward Yeranian reports for VOA from Cairo.
Militiamen loyal to the "unity" government captured two districts inside Sirte amid heavy fighting and reports of casualties on both sides.
Ahmed Hadiya, a spokesman for pro-government military forces in Sirte, (said) that battles took place in several areas.
He says pro-government militiamen had pushed IS fighters out of the Zafran and Gharbiyat districts and cornered them in small pockets of the 700 districts.
Islamic State fighters were reported to be fighting fiercely, despite recent losses, using car bombs, suicide attackers and other booby-trapped objects.

"During presidential elections, it's always tough when we're in the heat of campaigns. People naturally are going to worry more about what's lost than what's gained with respect to trade agreements. But I am confident that we're gonna be able to get this done.”
Opponents have been critical of what they perceive as negotiations carried out away from public scrutiny, and they fear the pact will hand too much power to big multinationals at the expense of consumers and workers.
Exit polls show the candidate of Austria's anti-immigration Freedom Party winning the first round of presidential elections, gathering more than 35 percent of the vote. The exit polls show the party beating five rivals, including nominees of the governing coalition.
Preliminary vote tallies in Serbia show the coalition of pro-European (Union) parties led by Prime Minister Aleksandar Vucic sweeping to a landslide victory in Sunday's general elections.
Monitors report Vucic's Progressive Party has nearly 53 percent of the vote and the Socialists who are in the ruling coalition have an additional 13 percent.

This is VOA news.
The United Nations Security Council has condemned North Korea for its submarine launched ballistic missile test Saturday. The North Korean government is calling a submarine launched test a great success.
But, a South Korean Foreign Ministry spokesman condemned the test. Officials from that country called it a failure.
Egyptian protesters who mounted anti-government demonstrations on April 15 to express their anger with a presidential decision to give two Red Sea islands to Saudi Arabia as gifts have vowed to stage mass sit-ins Monday to mark a patriotic holiday, Sinai Liberation Day.
A group of lawyers says Egypt authorities have arrested dozens of activists ahead of the planned protests.
In a televised address Sunday, President Abdel Fattah el-Sissi urged Egyptians to protect the state and its institutions from what he called the "forces of evil.”
A Dutch journalist was arrested by Turkish police early Sunday at her home in Turkey after she made a negative statement about President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan on Twitter.
Ebru Umar, a well-known columnist for the Dutch Metro newspaper, tweeted that police were at the front door of her home late Saturday night and they were taking her to a police station for questioning.
A Dutch Foreign Ministry spokesman confirmed that Umar had been detained but gave no details.
An electoral commission says 98 percent of voters in Sudan's Darfur region have voted against uniting the region's five separate states into one.
A Darfur election official said Saturday 3.2 million of Darfur's 3.5 million registered voters cast ballots in the election.
Papa Wemba, a musician known around the world as the king of Congolese rumba, died early Sunday after collapsing on stage in Ivory Coast. He was 66.
Papa Wemba had performed three songs at the Urban Musical Festival Anoumabo in Abidjan before collapsing in front of thousands of fans. Fellow performers rushed to his aid, but he died before reaching the hospital.
The cause of death was not immediately known.
Businessman Donald Trump, trying to lock up the U.S. Republican presidential nomination, says he continues to believe in his anti-immigrant proposals.
One of his key campaign aides, Paul Manafort, told party leaders last week Trump [was been] has been playing "a part" in the campaign and that he is "evolving" into a more traditional candidate.
But Trump assured a rally of supporters in Connecticut that he has no intention of abandoning a proposal to temporarily keep Muslims out of the country and to build a wall to block illegal immigrants from Mexico.

Marty (Michael J. Fox) borrows a hover board to escape Griff's (Thomas F. Wilson) gang, but loses momentum over a pond.
FILM DESCRIPTION:
Things have barely settled from the excitement and resolve of the original Back to the Future, when in pops that crazy inventor Dr. Emmett Brown (Christopher Lloyd) with news that in order to prevent a series of events that could ruin the McFly name for posterity, Marty McFly (Michael J. Fox ) and his girlfriend are whisked into the future to the year 2015, where Marty must tangle with a teen rogue named Griff, who's obviously the descendant of Biff, the first Future film's bully. Marty foils Griff and his group when he jumps on an air-foil skateboard that flies him through town at rakish speeds with the loser bullies beaten again. Marty gets a money-making brainstorm before hopping in the time-traveling DeLorean, and he purchases a sports almanac. He figures that back in 1985 he'll be able to place sure-fire bets using the published sports scores of the games that are yet to happen. Unfortunately for Marty, Dr. Brown disapproves of his betting scheme -- he feels too much messing with time is very dangerous -- and he tosses the almanac. A hidden Biff overhears the discussion about the almanac, sees it get tossed out, and grabs it. Thus begins a time-traveling swirl to make the head spin. Biff swipes the DeLorean, heads back to 1955, and with the help of the unerring almanac, bets his way to power. The now-altered "Biff world" has turned into a nightmarish scene with Biff the mogul, residing in a Vegas-styled pleasure palace and running everything. It's all our hero Marty can do to pull the pieces together this time, as he must jump between three generations of intertwined time travel. The end of Back to the Future, Part 2 introduces its sequel as the zany professor has already time-dashed away to the Wild West of the late 1800s and invites Marty into a new adventure.

From Washington, this is VOA news. I'm Dave DeForest reporting. Europe struggles with a migrant issue.
European leaders meeting in Brussels are considering sending 400 border guards and setting up new checkpoints if the EU's frontier states drop their policy of giving migrants passage to other countries.
A draft statement also broached the possibility of deploying more ships off the coast of Greece and agreeing not to send migrants from one country to another without prior agreement.
Federica Mogherini is the EU foreign policy chief: "What is a stake here is the coherence of our response to process that is not going to disappear any time soon.”
Sunday's meeting is the latest in a series of top-level EU meetings.
Meanwhile, the flow of migrants though the Balkans toward western Europe continued unabated.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said Sunday adding video surveillance to the Temple Mount site in Jerusalem, referred to by Muslims as Noble Sanctuary, is in Israel's best interest.
U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry said Saturday Israel and Jordan have agreed on specific steps to help reduce violence, including the video monitoring.
"We have to join together in calling for an immediate end to violence. We must stress the importance of avoiding provocative actions and rhetoric." :John Kerry.
Syrian President Bashar al-Assad said Sunday eliminating the threat of what he called terrorists in his country would lead to a political solution to the civil war there.
He met with a group of Russian lawmakers in Damascus.
The Republic of Congo voted Sunday on constitutional changes that would allow President Denis Nguesso to seek another term.
The proposed amendments would abolish a two-term limit for presidents and an age limit of 70 for presidential candidates.
This is VOA news.
Tanzanians went to the polls Sunday to elect a new president and parliament.
Voting was peaceful in the capital and appeared to run smoothly, with no incidents of violence or unrest.
Haitians voted for a new president Sunday.
Turnout was reported large as voters faced a ballot featuring more than 50 presidential candidates.
Long lines were seen at some polling stations in the capital, Port-au-Prince, before the voting ended.
In Ivory Coast is holding the first round of presidential elections Sunday.
President Alassane Ouattara widely expected to win says he wants a "first round know-out victory.”
Reporter Emilie Iob says he has good reason to expect that.
"Three candidates already pulled out of the race, so that's why Alassane Ouattara believes that wining on the first round is more possible for him. Because the rest of the candidates are not big enough, at least some of them believe to beat him." :Emilie Iob.
Argentines are voting in elections to choose their next president, the successor to President Cristina Fernandez de Kirchner.
Fernandez's chosen successor, Daniel Scioli, is leading in early vote counting.
It's not certain whether he will get enough votes to avoid a runoff.
Looking for a fresh start, Guatemalans went to the polls today and elected a comedian as president of their country.
Jimmy Morales, a former TV comedian with no political experience, appears poised to beat former first lady Sandra Torres, according to opinion surveys.
People in Poland voted Sunday in a parliamentary election, choosing 460 lawmakers in the lower house and 100 in the Senate.
Based on an exit poll, it appears the opposition Law and Justice Party has gained a big victory, getting enough seats in parliament to govern alone.
The world would be a better place if dictators such as Iraq's Saddam Hussein and Libya's Moammar Gadhafi were still in power, according to top Republican U.S. presidential hopeful Donald Trump. He mad the comments Sunday.
Calling Iraq the "Harvard of terrorism," Trump told CNN's State of the Union the country had turned into a "training ground for terrorists.”
A video posted online Sunday reportedly shows a joint U.S. and peshmerga raid on an Islamic State prison in northern Iraq last week that freed 69 hostages.
In the two-minute video shared by the Kurdistan Regional Security Council, several commandos in uniform are seen leading a group of men quickly between rooms as non-stop gunfire crackles nearby.
Former British Prime Minister Tony Blair has apologized for what he calls "mistakes" made during the U.S.-led invasion of Iraq.
In an interview with CNN, Blair also cites the invasion as a trigger for current conflicts in the region, including the rise of the Islamic State group in Iraq and Syria.

From Washington, this is VOA news. Coming up, dealing with the Islamic State insurgency. The latest on the Ebola outbreak.
The U.S. military is widening its campaign against Islamic State militants, launching 4 airstrikes Sunday on insurgents threatening to take over the Haditha Dam in western Iraq.
U.S. officials said Iraq remains in control of the dam, a major source of water and electrical power. U.S. Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel said securing the dam (was) crucial.
"If that dam would fall into ISIL's hand, or if that dam would be destroyed, the damage that that would cause would be very significant. And it would put a significant, additional and big risk into the mix in Iraq." U.S. Defense chief Chuck Hagel speaking Sunday in Tbilisi, Georgia.
President Obama says he will outline his "game plan" to deal with the threat posed by Islamic State militants this week.
Mr. Obama told NBC television's Meet the Press program in an interview broadcast on Sunday that he will meet with congressional leaders Tuesday to discuss the matter.
He stressed the U.S. does not plan to send ground troops into Iraq.
Authorities in Sierra Leone are ordering people to stay at home for 3 days this month as part of an effort to stop the spread of the Ebola virus.
Doctors Without Borders has criticized the measure saying it could lead to people trying to conceal infections.
A Sierra Leone government spokesman says people will not be allowed to leave their homes from late September 18th until September the 21st.
A lockdown last month in an area of Monrovia, Liberia, sparked riots.
Ebola has ravaged Liberia, Guinea, Sierra Leone and Nigeria since March.
This is VOA news.
Somalia has removed its top intelligence official and is on high alert following the Monday killing of an al-Shabab leader in a U.S. airstrike.
National Security Director Abdulahi Mohamed Ali had only held the post for 2 months. He was appointed in July as part of a major overhaul of Somalia's security services.
The decision comes as Somali officials put the country on high alert after the militant group al-Shabab confirmed the death of its leader, Ahmed Abdi Godane, in a U.S. airstrike last week.
Fighting and shelling in eastern Ukraine has put the 2-day-old cease-fire between Kyiv and pro-Russia separatists in jeopardy.
Shelling near the Donetsk airport on Sunday set 2 houses on fire in a small village, and clashes near the city of Mariupol killed a civilian and wounded 3 others.
Both sides blamed the other for shattering the truce.
The U.N. refugee agency is warning time is running out to get 100s of 1000s of displaced Iraqis ready for winter.
The UNHCR says accommodations must be arranged and supplies prepositioned before the cold weather hits in less than 3 months. Lisa Schlein reporting from the UNHCR headquarters in Geneva.
The U.N. refugee agency says "time is of the essence." It notes winter is approaching fast and work to reinforce 10ts and other housing must be accelerated before the snow, rain and mud add to the misery of 100,000s of people displaced inside Iraq.
Iraq currently is sweltering under average temperatures of 40 degrees Celsius. In less than 3 months, temperatures will dip to below 10 degrees Celsius and the rains will begin.
The UNHCR says its winterization program is off to a late start because of the multiple crises which keep cropping up in this conflict-ridden country.
Lisa Schlein, for VOA news, Geneva.
The September 11th Museum in New York has unveiled some items related to the successful 2011 raid against Osama bin Laden in Pakistan. The new exhibit that opened Sunday includes a shirt worn by one of the U.S. Navy SEALs who took part in the raid, a brick from the compound where bin Laden died and a commemorative coin donated [by] to a CIA operative who relentlessly pursued the al-Qaeda leader.
In sports news, American Serena Williams has won the third consecutive U.S. Open women's 10nis championship in a dominating performance on Sunday evening in Flushing Meadows, New York. 32-year-old Williams beat her good friend, 24-year-old Caroline Wozniacki of Denmark in straight sets of 6-3, 6-3.

This is the VOA Special English Agriculture Report, from http://voaspecialenglish.com
People might think that beets are always dark red. But this tasty root vegetable also comes in other colors. There are pink, yellow and white beets, and beets with circles of red and white inside. These are known as candy cane or candy stripe beets.
Beets are high in nutrients including folate, iron and fiber. They can be eaten fresh or frozen, canned or pickled. And not just the root but also the tops can be eaten. The leaves make good salads when the plants are young, and the greens can be cooked when the plants are older.
Beets do not require much work to grow. They like cool temperatures, between sixteen and eighteen degrees Celsius. They grow best in full sun and in loose soil that is not too wet.
Remove stones from the soil while preparing the ground. And test the soil before adding lime and fertilizer.
Some experts say the best fertilizers for beets are low in nitrogen.
Beets need the acidity level in the soil to be six to seven and a half.
Beet seeds can be planted as soon as the soil is able to be worked at the start of the growing season.
Planting them every two or three weeks will provide a continuous harvest into the fall.
Cindy Haynes at Iowa State University suggests planting the seeds one and one-quarter centimeters deep.
They should be planted in rows
that are spaced thirty to
forty-six centimeters apart.
Overcrowding the plants will mean that the roots cannot spread out and grow. Thin the beets by removing
the smaller ones. These can be
used as greens.
Cindy Haynes says little or no fertilizer is needed in fertile soils. But once the seeds are planted, she does suggest covering the soil with a little mulch to protect it during rains and dry periods. She also suggests putting a fence around the plants to keep away
rabbits and deer.
She says the only work needed once beets have been thinned is weeding and, when the weather is dry,
a weekly watering.
Some people like beets prepared simply in butter. Others like to cook them with cinnamon and ginger.
However you like them, for best results, beets should be picked when they are four to five centimeters across. Beets much larger than that can be tough and have to be cooked for a long time. And thats the VOA Special English Agriculture Report.

From Washington, this is VOA news. A cease-fire in Syria is broken by snipers. Iranian officials resume discussion on nuclear weapons. I'm Vincent Bruce reporting from Washington.
Saturday in Syria, UN and various aid agencies attempted to deliver aid to the besieged city of Homs, Syria's third largest city, now a battle ground of sectarian conflict. However, sniper fire Saturday morning stalled the aid operation despite a promise by the government and rebels of the 3-day cease-fire.
Edward Yeranian reports for VOA from Cairo.
A pro-Syrian Lebanese news channel claimed the aid operation was stopped after Islamic militants violated a truce and fired on security forces.
Homs governor Talal al-Barazi told the official Syrian news agency, SANA, that rebel mortar shells hit a police building in New Clock Square. He insisted, however, that the operation will continue.
Barazi also vowed the civilians evacuated from the city Friday will be allowed to return to their homes in neighborhoods soon.
A rebel spokesman inside Homs told Sky News Arabia it was government forces that broke the truce and accused them of trying to disrupt the UN-brokered relief plan.
Edward Yeranian, for VOA news, Cairo.
More on this story at voanews.com.
Representatives from Iran and the International Atomic Energy Agency resumed talks on Iran's nuclear program Saturday.
A spokesman for Iran's Atomic Energy Organization was quoted by the nation's official (news agency). He says Iran's consultations with the United Nations nuclear agency will continue on Sunday.
Elsewhere in Iran, an Iranian naval commander says Iran has ordered several warships to approach US maritime borders as a response to the stationing of US Navy vessels in the Persian Gulf.
Iranian media Saturday quoted Admiral Afshin Rezayee Haddad as saying that a destroyer and a helicopter-carrying supply ship have already entered the Atlantic Ocean via waters near South Africa.
Leftist Egyptian politician Hamdeen Sabahi has announced he will run for President in this year's election.
Sabahi told his supporters in Cairo Saturday that he will wage a clear battle for the revolution.
Sabahi finished third in the 2012 election that brought Mohamed Morsi to power. Sabahi became a constant critic of the Islamist Morsi until the army toppled him last year.
In Saudi Arabia, at least 15 people are dead after a fire broke out at a hotel filled with Muslim pilgrims.
Authorities say the hotel is located in the Saudi holy city of Medina in the country's west.
Television reports from Egypt say Egyptians were among those killed. At least 130 people were injured.
It was not clear what started the fire.
Investigators say the Ukrainian man who tried to hijack a Turkey-bound commercial flight with 110 passengers on board and divert it to Sochi was demanding the release of prisoners in his country.
Of the would-be hijacker, a spokesman for the Ukrainian Security Service investigation department, Maxim Lenko, said a passenger on the plane about an hour after the plane took off broke into the cockpit demanding the plane change its course to Sochi.
The crew strained the suspect and the plane landed safely in Istanbul, and no explosives or weapons were found on board.
An aging skier made history on the 1st day of team competition at the 2014 Winter Olympics in Sochi, Russia.
Norway's Ole Einar Bjoerndalen became the oldest Winter Olympic gold medalist in an individual sport. The 40-year-old man finished 1st in the biathlon 10-kilometer sprint, beating the age record held by Canadian skeleton racer Duff Gibson, at 39 years old in the 2006 Turin Olympics.
Speedskater Sven Kramer of the Netherlands also had a memorable day. He defended his title in the men's 5,000 meters, winning gold with an Olympic-record time of 6 minutes, 10.76 2nds.
The United States captured the 1st gold medal of the Sochi Games. Sage Kotsenburg mastered a perilous course to win the inaugural men's snowboard slopestyle event.
Sunday marks the 50th anniversary of the Beatles American television debut on the Ed Sullivan Show, beginning what was known as "Beatlemania" in the US.
Americans across the country are celebrating that legendary pop culture phenomenon with Beatles tributes from Capitol Records Tower in Los Angeles to JFK Airport in New York, where the band 1st landed on American soil.

A CBS TV special late Sunday gives Beatles fans a rare treat-- Paul McCartney and Ringo Starr, the only 2 [remember] remaining of the [five] 4 will reunite.

Friday, September 12th, 2014
From Washington, This is VOA news. Pistorius found guilty of culpable homicide and U.S. military prepares for multi-year operations in Mideast .
I’m Bill Michaels, reporting from Washington. U.S. President Barack Obama has ordered military action to beat back Islamic state militants in Iraq and Syria. VOA’s Carla Babb has more from the Pentagon.
An additional 475 U.S. troops are heading to Iraq to assist local forces in their fight against Islamic State. In all more than 1600 U.S. military personnel will be in the country, costing U.S. taxpayers an average of more than !$7,500,000 each day. U.S. officials and analysts say attacking a force that has spread as much as the Islamic State Group will take time. Elliott Abrams, who was a security adviser to former President George W Bush, says the fight is expected to be a multi-year project that will likely carry into the next Presidency. “Because the threat that we’re facing from the Islamic State has grown to the point where there are no simple answers.”
Experts have been trying to analyze whether the fight is winnable without U.S. combat troops on the ground. Abrams says it can be won precisely because Islamic state militants are behaving differently from their al-Qaeda predecessors. Carla Babb, VOA news, the Pentagon. South African track star Oscar Pistorius has been found guilty of culpable homicide but cleared of other more serious murder charges in connection with the killing of his girlfriend. Judge Thokozile Masipa, ”the accused is found not guilty and is discharged. Instead, he is found guilty of culpable homicide.”
This is VOA news. The European Union has imposed a new package of economic sanctions against Russia because of its actions in Ukraine. The new sanctions went into effect today and targeted Russian oil and defense firms. The latest EU restrictions also impose sanctions on individuals including Russian figures and Ukrainian rebels. European Council President, Herman Van Rompuy, has said the sanctions may be amended, suspended or repealed in all, or in part, after a review of the ceasefire in Ukraine by the end of September. Russia said it would retaliate to the new sanctions immediately but did not announce details.
In recent days, Russian officials have threatened to ban U.S. airlines from Russian airspace, a move that could force long and costly detours for flights to East Asia. A ceasefire is holding in Ukraine's eastern region. In this report from Washington, VOA’s senior correspondent Andre de Nesnera spoke with former U.S. ambassador Jack Matlock, a longtime expert on Russia, about the situation in Ukraine. Senior Russian officials including Foreign Minister, Sergei Lavrov, have recently stated there is no military intervention from Russia.
But the last U.S. ambassador to the Soviet Union, Jack Matlock, disagrees.
“Obviously their intervening, I think they would say, 'look, you guys intervene wherever you want to. You even invade, like the United States invaded Iraq, which had not attacked it, and we are essentially using the same methods.'” Some experts have indicated that Russian Vladimir Putin wants more than just to gain influence in that region. That he eventually wants to annex eastern Ukraine.
“I don’t think there is an intent to take it into Russia. It would be a totally irrational intent, this is an economically-depressed area.” Andre de Nesnera, VOA news, Washington. The Australian government has raised its terror threat level to high, the 2nd highest level, on concerns about threats from domestic Islamic state supporters. Prime Minister Tony Abbott told a news conference today that the move was not based on knowledge of a specific attack plan, but rather intelligence that there are people with intent and the capability to mount attacks. Mr. Abbott said the terrorist threat level had been rising in Australia over the past year due in part Australians joining the Islamic state to fight in Syria and Iraq. Australia estimates up to 60 of its citizens are fighting alongside the militants while another 100 are actively supporting extremist groups from within Australia. Reporting from Washington, I’m Bill Michaels and this is VOA news. That’s the latest world news from VOA.

Confronting the Changing Face of al-Qaeda Propaganda

Read his prepared remarks: http://www.washingtoninstitute.org/policy-analysis/view/confronting-the-changing-face-of-al-qaeda-propaganda Theme music by Dexter Britain.
