Kerry To Discuss Korean Crisis In Japan, Apr 14, 2013

Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi (right) meets with U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry in Beijing on April 13.
"U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry has arrived in Tokyo for talks with Japanese officials on the North Korean crisis. In Beijing on April 13, Kerry and senior Chinese officials agreed that diplomacy was the best way to "denuclearize" the Korean Peninsula. Chinese officials did not say, however, whether Beijing will pressure ally Pyongyang, something Kerry is eager to see China do. China's Xinhua news agency said in a commentary that Washington had itself been "fanning the flames" on the Korean Peninsula, a probable reference to recent U.S. military drills in South Korea. North Korea has vowed nuclear war against the United States among other threats in recent weeks. Tensions on the peninsula began to rise after the North's third nuclear test in February. In response, the UN imposed sanctions on Pyongyang."

DETROIT FREE PRESS - North Korean video shows imagined strikes on U.S. , Apr 14, 2013

A screen grab of a North Korean propaganda video that includes animation of four nuclear strikes against the United States. U.S. government officials say North Korean missiles do not have the capability of reaching the United States.
"A video released by Saturday by North Korea shows nuclear launches against the United States reaching four sites, including Washington, D.C., California, Hawaii and what the announcer describes as Colorado Springs, but which looks like Arkansas. U.S. officials were clear they did not believe the belligerent nation has missiles capable of reaching the United States. The video was released Saturday on Uriminzokkiri, a North Korean government web site. It has also been posted on YouTube. In it, each of the U.S. targets explodes into a ball of flames as the missiles strike on the map. The Colorado Springs attack is presumably because the North American Aerospace Defense Command (NORAD) is located near there, as well as the U.S. Air Force Academy. However based on the map the North Koreans posted, the attack site is actually in either southern Arkansas or northern Louisiana."

French police hunt gangster after dramatic prison break, Apr 14, 2013


 "LILLE (France) (AFP) - French police were on a manhunt on Sunday for a notorious armed robber who staged a dramatic prison break in northern France after briefly taking several guards hostage. Lille prosecutor Frederic Fevre said about 100 investigators were involved in the hunt for Redoine Faid, known for brazen attacks on cash-in-transit vehicles, after he blasted his way out of a jail in the northern town of Sequedin on Saturday. Faid, a 40-year-old who risked a heavy new sentence over the 2010 death of a policewoman, used explosives to blast through five prison doors and took hostage four prison guards, who were later released. Investigators were on Sunday trying to determine how Faid had managed to obtain explosives inside the prison and whether he had any accomplices."
