ard labor after sneaking
across the border from China.They later were pardoned on humanitarian grounds
and released to former U.S. President Bill Clinton, who flew to Pyongyang
on a rescue mission. He also met with then-leader Kim Jong Il,
which paved the way for talks.Bae's trial on charges of "committing hostile
acts" against North Korea place in Supreme Court on Tuesday, the state-run
Korean Central News Agency reported.He was arrested in early November in
Rason, a special economic zone in North Korea's far northeastern region
bordering China and Russia, state media said. The exact nature of Bae's
alleged crimes has not been revealed.Friends and colleagues say Bae, a Korean
American who was living in Washington state, was based in the Chinese
border city of Dalian and traveled frequently to North Korea to feed
orphans.State media refers to Bae as Pae Jun Ho, the North Korean
spelling of his Korean name.Bae is at least the sixth American detained
in North Korea since 2009. The others eventually were deported or released.Three
other Americans detained in recent years were also devout Christians. While
North Korea's constitution guarantees freedom of religion, in practice only
sanctioned services are tolerated by the government.North Korea may be fishing
for another visit by a high-profile American envoy, said Ahn Chan-il, head
of the World Institute for North Korea Studies think tank in South
Korea."North Korea is using Bae as bait to
ssock of the papacy.Given the political
intrigues that plague the Vatican, it wasn't much of a stretch of
the imagination to wonder if some cardinals, bishops and monsignors not
to mention ordinary Catholics might continue making Benedict their point
of reference rather than the new pope.However, Benedict made clear on his
final day as pope that he was renouncing the job and pledged
his "unconditional reverence and obedience" to his then-unknown successor.
It was a pledge he repeated in person on March 23 when
Francis went to have lunch with him at Castel Gandolfo.It was during
that visit that the world saw how frail Benedict had become in
the three weeks since his emotional departure from the Apostolic Palace:
Always a man with a purposeful walk, he shuffled tentatively that day,
using his cane.Francis, for his part, seems utterly unfazed by the novel
situation unfolding. He has frequently invoked Benedict's name and work
and has called him on a half-dozen occasions, making clear he has
no intention of ignoring the fact that there's another pope still very
much alive and now living on the other side of the garden
from the Vatican hotel where he lives.Francis' gestures to Benedict during
that March 23 visit were also remarkable: He refused to pray on
the special papal kneeler in the small chapel of Castel Gandolfo, preferring
to join Benedict on a kneeler in the pews, and referring to
his predecessor as his "brother."Now that they'r

Stevens.Click for more images of the individuals sought by the FBI.While
the investigation continues, the debate over Benghazi once again is heating
up in Washington as insiders apparently are seeking permission to speak
to Congress.An attorney for one of the employees recently claimed to Fox
News that her client and others have been threatened by administration officials.But
the White House denied Wednesday that any whistle-blowers were being blocked
from testifying. Press Secretary Jay Carney addressed the claims a day after
President Obama, during a lengthy press conference, said he was unaware
of the claims and would look into them."Benghazi happened a long time
ago," Carney said. "We are unaware of any agencies blocking an employee
who would like to appear before Congress to provide information related
to Benghazi."Carney said a prior review board "heard from everyone and invited
everyone." He said the latest allegations "are part of an unfortunate pattern
of spreading misinformation and politicizing the issue."At the same time,
officials with the State Department and Defense Department both wrote back
to House Oversight and Government Reform Committee Chairman Darrell Issa,
R-Calif., this week claiming they were "unaware" of any request for a
security clearance for an employee's attorney. The request for a security
clearance would be a necessary step for any potential whistle-blo
Undated: A Facebook graphic, by the group Credo Action, asking Facebook
founder Mark Zuckerberg to stop supporting ads backing the Keystone XL Pipeline.CREDOFILE:
April 4, 2013: Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg during a company press event
in Menlo Park, Calif.REUTERSFacebook founder Mark Zuckerberg is facing a
backlash from the left over ads that support drilling in Alaska and
the Canada-to-Texas Keystone pipeline, as the young billionaire wades ever-deeper
into charged political debates.The daisy chain that connects Zuckerberg
with the drilling ads starts with FWD.US, the bipartisan group Zuckerberg
co-founded for the purpose of supporting immigration legislation. That organization
gave money to a conservative group, Americans for a Conservative Direction,
that aired a TV ad supporting South Carolina Republican Sen. Lindsey Graham.
It also gave to a group that put up an ad backing
drilling in Alaska.Graham is among the eight senators who crafted the bipartisan
immigration legislation now being debated on Capitol Hill. However, Graham
appears in the ad criticizing President Obama for not approving the Keystone
pipeline, which supporters say will help the United Sates achieve energy
independence and critics say will be an environmental hazard.The president
says Im for all of the above when it comes to energy,
Graham says in the 60-second spot. Well, those are words coming out
of his mouth. They dont come from his heart. No Keystone pipeli
