Parts of her body were covered in red marks, a source said. They were originally thought to have been caused by bites, but on examination proved to have been made by aggressive pinching.
“Lara is getting better daily,” said a friend. “The psychological trauma is as bad as, if not worse than, the physical injuries. She might talk about it at some time in the future, but not now.”
A US TV journalist attacked in Cairo’s Tahrir Square was stripped and beaten with fists and the poles of hand-held flags, US sources say.
Lara Logan, 39, a correspondent on the CBS News show 60 Minutes, was recovering in private with her husband, Joseph Burkett, their son and her stepdaughter.

This year, a week before the show, I wrote down a note to “Take speed at LimmudLA.”
I meant sudafed, which I took for a couple of months last fall for nasal congestion. It’s legal speed and I kept a supply in the drawer, shlepped them to LimmudLA, and every morning over the weekend, popped a couple and then went for a 30-minute walk looking for sunshine.
In his hour-long talk, Lawton said that for most of the second half of the 20th century, America and Israel had dominated the discourse about the future of Judaism and ignored European Jewry. Israel put forward a “nationalization” model for Judaism—the religion would be taken care of by central authorities—while America pushed its highly individualistic model in which any practice, no matter how unusual, could be called Jewish, and no authority had the right to call someone’s Jewishness into question.
“I was curious how they would handle the Lara Logan incident,” Chamberlain continued. “Go here http://english.aljazeera.net/ and search ‘Lara Logan.’ ” When you do it, your reaction might be the same as mine to Chamberlain, “um…..crickets.” There was and continues to be nothing there. Or at al-Jazeera’s Arabic-language site.
Though Breitbart says the biggest revelations are yet to come, he has coauthored a report detailing some of the crime that has been directly tied to Pigford. The most sensational example comes from 2006, when a Mississippi couple was sentenced to life in prison on conspiracy charges in the murder of Clovis Reed, who had plotted with the couple to make fraudulent Pigford claims and who they feared would testify against them in court. The year before, two college administrators in Arkansas were convicted of attempting to fraudulently claim $400,000 after they attended a meeting whose organizers told them the settlement was a “veiled way to collect reparations for centuries-old grievances.”
A group of women rescued her with the help of the Egyptian army? Where was the army while the attack was going on? Who were the 200 men who attacked Lara Logan? The story from CBS News seems inadequate to what happened.
From the beginning the “official” story from CBS smelled like week old fish remains. The story as CBS told it consisted of three primary parts:
1. A “dangerous element of 200″ surrounded Logan and her team. 2. She was separated from her team and brutally assaulted. 3. A “group of women and about 20 Egyptian solders” rescued her.
There are legal ways to bring in cheap labor from overseas to do brutal work for low wages.
Immigration attorneys typically make at least $20,000 per immigrant (because the application process is labor-intensive) who then work for close to minimum wage.
According to Wikipedia: “ProjectUSA is an immigration reduction political advocacy group. According to the group’s website, it is “a nonprofit social advocacy group based in Washington, DC and dedicated to raising public debate about the important issue of mass immigration. We advocate ending illegal immigration, reducing legal immigration to traditional, sustainable levels, and a ten year time-out while the country reassesses immigration in terms of the long-term consequences of present policy.”"
Dennis: “I think the biggest story here is why CBS did not report it originally. I want to know why CBS didn’t report it. Their chief foreign correspondent is attacked and sexually assaulted by 200 men, God only knows what that means, and sustained serious injuries, and CBS did not report it, that’s a serious story.”
I only tell this story — not to get hits to my website — but to share an inspiring example of God’s grace, the way He can reach down and lift up the greatest of sinners.
Will you turn to the person next to you right on and say. "Amen! Preach on, Guru Luke!"
What many don’t realize is that Melissa Scott and Sarah Palin are identical twins who were separated at birth:
The sex assault on Lara Logan could ‘turn her into a target’ for future attacks, her former boss warned today.
Janet Leissner, who ran the CBS Washington bureau for eight years until 2009, told MailOnline that the foreign correspondent was at risk of copycat attacks now that she is ‘very well known’.
She also urged Miss Logan to ‘take a strong measure of herself’ before going back to war reporting and to consider the welfare of her two young children, her husband and her ‘responsibilities as a mother’.
“It is not possible to describe the intensity of anti-Semitism in the Arab world. The Jew-hatred is so great that the worst epithet, worse than dog which is considered a very bad thing in Arab culture, is Jew. The Jew is the scum of the earth throughout the Arab world, particularly east of Morocco. That’s what they’ve been fed since 1948. One can only imagine what the invasion of Israel would entail, the sadism.
“And these are the democracy guys. These are the folks who won. This is after Mubarak resigned.
“We will not rest until we find out why this story stayed quiet.”
“This story is so huge, I can’t get it out of my head… She was attacked sexually by more than 200 men.”
“Tom Friedman is ecstatic about the young people at Tahrir Square. They want liberty.”
“Jew means we can do whatever we want to you because the view of Jews in the Arab world is entirely similar to the view of Jews in Nazi Germany. The media have done an effective job in dehumanizing Jews. Jew means you have lost your humanity, hence you can be treated in a dehumanized manner. That’s one of the many reasons I don’t share any of the mainstream media’s optimism about Egypt. I hope I’m wrong but I don’t see the slightest evidence for it.”

Lara Logan’s employer broke this news with her permission. Then it ended with a plea for privacy for Lara and an announcement that Lara and CBS News would have nothing further to say about the story.
But how would Lara Logan and CBS News react to somebody who chose to publicly release a story that most people would want to keep private and then plea for privacy and say they will have no further comment? No self-respecting journalist would have a bar of it.
“60 Minutes” correspondent Lara Logan was repeatedly sexually assaulted by thugs yelling, “Jew! Jew!” as she covered the chaotic fall of Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak in Cairo’s main square Friday, CBS and sources said yesterday.
The TV crew with Logan, who is also the network’s chief foreign correspondent, had its cameras rolling moments before she was dragged off — and caught her on tape looking tense and trying to head away from a crowd of men behind her in Tahrir Square.
…A network source told The Post that her attackers were screaming, “Jew! Jew!” during the assault. And the day before, Logan had told Esquire.com that Egyptian soldiers hassling her and her crew had accused them of “being Israeli spies.” Logan is not Jewish.
Why would a news organization send a hot chick former model into such a dangerous situation?
I guess they don’t want to discriminate against hotness even when that hotness will likely get their reporter into trouble.
According to the New York Daily News: “At least 140 reporters have been injured or killed covering Egypt since Jan. 30, according to the Committee to Protect Journalists.”
That shows you what a moral cesspool Egypt is. I wonder if it will develop a thriving democracy?
On Friday February 11, the day Egyptian president Hosni Mubarak stepped down, CBS correspondent Lara Logan was covering the jubilation in Tahrir Square for a “60 Minutes” story when she and her team and their security were surrounded by a dangerous element amidst the celebration. It was a mob of more than 200 people whipped into frenzy.
In the crush of the mob, she was separated from her crew. She was surrounded and suffered a brutal and sustained sexual assault and beating before being saved by a group of women and an estimated 20 Egyptian soldiers. She reconnected with the CBS team, returned to her hotel and returned to the United States on the first flight the next morning. She is currently in the hospital recovering.
An unhappy tenant emails me: "There have been 4-5 break-ins to units and cars just over the last 2 weeks and BRE will not increase Security. One tenant had his remote stolen during the theft and BRE wanted to charge him $50 to replace it. When he got upset he was then brought into the office and lectured by our very unpleasant Assistant Manager on how to treat people. Two other tenants…just last week…had their personal belongings stolen off their first floor balconies. And a crowbar was used to break in to a unit on Monday.
I have seen a student crying because of how she was treated and an elderly man being completely ignored and blown off. The tenants have taken to video taping these incidents and will be putting them up on YouTube and I know that the press have received the petition with over 125 signatures.
I hope I don’t end up in a nursing home. I hope I don’t end up at Chandler Convalescent Hospital (5335 Laurel Canyon Boulevard, North Hollywood, CA 91607).
Calqualitycare.org rates it one star out of five and says its quality of care is “poor.”
Sanford Deutsch is moving into Beverlywood with his new wife.
Sanford was a big macher in Jewish Los Angeles. He was a lay leader of the Orthodox Union. He led Congregation Sharei Tefilah at Poinsettia and Beverly Blvd. He led the JNF.
Sanford’s son Mark runs Chandler Convalescent.
The place is a mess. The staff frequently get paid late. They have problems getting banks to take their checks, so instead they’re limited to a couple of check cashing outlets. Better get your check cashed quickly before the account runs out.
In response, much of the care is shoddy. It’s not unusual for the staff to fall asleep on the job.
A patient fell and died a couple of months ago. I wonder if a more attentive staff would’ve prevented his death?
Chandler Convalescent mainly employs Filipinos and Guatamalans.
It would take a man of great moral character to restrain himself from taking his sexual pick of the staff. Particularly if you own apartments and homes where you can house the more attractive ones.
Lindsay Lohan has been studying kabbalah for years. She even wears that red string on her wrist.
She was spotted in the parking lot of the Jewish Learning Academy for Rosh Hashanah two years ago. She’s sought counsel from the rabbi there.
The white dress she wore to court is now sold out!
Gawker reports: The white “Glavis” dress that Lindsay Lohan wore for her latest court date yesterday (yes, the one that looked like a doily that shrunk in the crotch) was so popular that it is completely sold out, according to designer Kimberly Ovitz. Let’s see if she’ll have the same effect on orange jump suits in a month.
It appears the military is taking over. The military can be expected to retain the peace deal with Israel and to stay an ally of the United States.
I feel like that character in the movie Brief Interviews With Hideous Men who spontaneously exclaims “Victory to the Forces of Democratic Freedom” whenever he has an orgasm.
We need a foreign policy that not only supports freedom in the abstract but is guided by long-range practical principles to achieve it – a Freedom Doctrine composed of the following elements:
(1) The United States supports democracy throughout the Middle East. It will use its influence to help democrats everywhere throw off dictatorial rule.
Luke: "How do you react when you feel that a man is looking at you with lust? Are you horrified, disgusted, appalled?"
SE: "Yeah. Disgusted. This is not a unique situation. Women in Manhattan are objectified walking down the street every day. A broad spectrum of women get looked at. It’s, yeah, disgusting. That doesn’t do anything for me. That doesn’t excite me. I know women who use it as a barometer for how good they’re looking that day. Eww! It gives me the creeps. I don’t enjoy it at all. There’s not a single ounce of enjoyment that I get from that."
Readers are only allowed to look at the following photos of S.E. Cupp if they pledge to do so entirely without lust.
Prager’s first wife Janice looked like Keira Knightley in this photo. Says a friend: "She worked at the Wiesenthal Center when I was in high school and we used to wonder what Prager had to get someone like her. We used to have to pick our tongues off the floor when she walked to her car and she knew it."
I charge into life because I’m a man of great enthusiasm with frequent delusions of grandeur. I see these visions where I am a great man and they intoxicate me and make me forget all of my shame.
I want to charge ahead because I feel so full of myself. I feel confident, arrogant, untouchable. I’m the new sheriff in town.
I get all these pre-programmed ideas for what I’m going to say and do when people have no choice but to be in my presence.
So when I finally get the opportunity to interact with people, much of the time I’m acting. I’m not real. I’m spouting all these memorized lines that I thought were just so funny when I was at the peak of my bipolar cycle.
Every so often, I like to pick up a book to see if I can raise my game.

What does green mean here? Green in Keyword Eye means that there is low competition for these search terms.
But is there any money to be made from these search terms?
Yes! There’s moderate advertiser competition for these keywords.

I have often said inappropriate things to men and women. I am the king of inappropriate as my friends will tell you.
I have not, however, ever sent a naked photo of myself to anyone. I’ve never posed for a naked photo.
I am a man and I have some sympathy with Chris Lee. As a normal guy, he’s willing to do almost anything to have sex with a new body. Most men will do almost anything for a sexual conquest.
Many feminists get offended at the claim that the male sex drive is stronger, but when was the last time a woman threw her life away for sex with a stranger? I can’t think of any famous examples. Women will jeopardize life and career on occasion for an illicit relationship but they have to know the guy in question. I am thinking about the movies I Am Love and Unfaithful as examples of this. I can’t think of examples of women throwing it all away for sex with a stranger.
I talk to myself constantly and much of it is bloody stupid.
I was just lying down and thinking about my life and the dumb things I’ve told myself over the past forty years.
They include:
* You can get away with it! * They’ll never know! * You’re special! * The rules don’t apply to you! * I’m a writer and I can go anywhere and do anything because it is all for my art! * There’s a new sheriff in town! * This isn’t really cheating! * I’ve changed! * Why don’t they like me? * It’s hopeless! * I’m sunk! * I’m invincible! * More attention for me! * Wouldn’t I look interesting if I went in this direction?
I went through feelings of frustration, anger and despair today/this week/year/decade as I struggle to belatedly take care of things I should’ve tackled decades ago.

JPMorgan Chase (JPM.N) Chief Executive Jamie Dimon emerged from the financial crisis of 2008 as America's most respected banker. He has done nothing since to lose that title.
The second-largest U.S. bank holds billions in problem mortgages, even though Dimon is often credited for steering JPMorgan past the worst of the losses experienced by its peers during the financial crisis.
