Businessman Shabthai Kalmanovich killed in Moscow [Itar Tass - 11/02/2009]

...I felt it important to post it again, as I made some changes when contacting them. "Amy, as a bi-weekly donor to the Area (HSHA), I strongly urge you to disclose the full facts of your investigation of alleged animal cruelty on the part of Miles Thomas. Stating that you can't provide details in order to protect the privacy of the accused makes little sense when he's suing you for return of his dog. In other words, he obviously does not consider this a private matter. 'I've received sufficient schooling in public relations to know that the HSHA is creating a monster by not talking candidly about this. Fill the information vacuum: Give the public the full facts now, please. 'I sincerely hope you are able to resolve this situation sooner rather than later. Regardless, though, I wish the Humane Society well and thank its employees and volunteers for their hard work and dedication.' Optimizer says 'I've received sufficient schooling in public relations to know that the HSHA is creating a monster by not talking candidly about this.' I'd like to hear from someone who has 'received sufficient schooling' in LAW regarding how the Humane Society CANNOT reveal information that it has."

French coach Raymond Domenech kept critics at bay in Kaunas, telling French television station TF1: "Something's been happening for quite a while. This team has something and the players are saying so. It's in the process of being born, of being built, of getting prepared. 'Tonight was difficult for us but we played it in good spirit despite the state of the pitch. I will say straight away I was happy with this match.' He added they would need to keep up the same standard at home to Lithuania on Wednesday at the Stade de France. 'There's another match on Wednesday and we need to be just as good if we want to get the three points.' And the 1998 winners and 2006 finalists are set fair to have a long World Cup adventure if Domenech's final comments were anything to go by. 'The players know what a World Cup is,' Domenech continued. 'We will give it our all might till the end, but the next step is on Wednesday.' Radoslav Batak's howler helped grant world champions Italy a comfortable night as they beat Montenegro 2-0 in Podgorica in Group Eight."
