Rattled New Yorkers questioned how the NYPD could let a nimble pack of late-night intruders scale the landmark Brooklyn Bridge to hang two enormous, bleached-white American flags.
“Aren’t there security cameras everywhere?” asked an angry Francisco Correa, 29, of Brooklyn. “How did no one see this? This bridge is the key to our city. That shouldn’t have happened.”
White flags are seen flying over the two towers of the Brooklyn Bridge, but how they got there is a mystery. (Anderson / Splash News) Flag maintenance workers hoist an American flag on the Brooklyn Bridge on Tuesday afternoon after two flags were swiped.

Cops were left scratching their heads and studying videotape after the trespassers reached the top of the iconic span’s 276-foot towers early Tuesday without anyone noticing.
They even used aluminum roasting pans fit for a Thanksgiving turkey to cover the floodlights illuminating the flags so they could work under cover of darkness.
“To be clear, we’re certainly concerned about it,” said John Miller, the NYPD’s anti-terrorism czar. “And certainly, as Commissioner (Bill) Bratton said, we are not happy about it.”
“If they had brought a bomb up there, it would have been over,” said a high-ranking police source. “If they were able to bring something large enough to cover the lights, then they would have been able to bring some kind of explosive up there.”
The furtive flag swap came within nine months of two security breaches at 1 World Trade Center: A 16-year-old boy who slipped past authorities and four daredevils who skydived from the top.
The 131-year-old bridge is considered a high-profile terrorist target, and it has two marked NYPD police cars assigned to either side of it.
The July 23, 2014 front page of the New York Daily News.
Security also includes cameras installed at undisclosed points along the bridge — although the video feed didn’t set off any alarms in the Tuesday morning darkness.
Citing security concerns, the NYPD would not say how many cameras are installed on the bridge.
The lights illuminating the Brooklyn side tower went dark first around 3:30 a.m., covered with an aluminum pan. The vandals used zip ties to keep the pan in place.
(New York Daily news)
Thirteen minutes later, the process was repeated on the soon-darkened Manhattan tower. The coordinated effort meant that it was at least a two-person job.
When the sun came up, construction workers spotted the white flags flapping in the breeze. Each was a 20-by-11-foot commercially available American flag bleached white.
Miller joked that the culprit was “Betsy Ross’ long-lost nephew doing extensive work.” The perpetrators likely had experience as climbers, construction workers or both.
This and other large aluminum baking pans were used to cover Brooklyn Bridge floodlights during the great flag switcheroo. (handout)
Brooklyn Borough President Eric Adams, whose office offered a $5,000 reward in the case, said there is nothing funny at all about the case.
“If flying a white flag atop the Brooklyn Bridge is someone’s idea of a joke, I’m not laughing,” he said.
As the day went on, nobody claimed responsibility for the bizarre banner swap, and the NYPD acknowledged it was stumped as to a motive.
“There’s no particular nexus to terrorism or politics,” said Miller. “It might be some kind of art project or statement. But we are not sure what that statement is.”
Miller said the size of the pans and the ability of the intruders to get past a locked gate gave “some indication of a good deal of pre-planning.”
Cops hoped to track down and interview five people seen on video crossing the bridge at 3:10 a.m.
NYPD Commisioner Bill Bratton, left, and Deputy Commissioner of Intelligence John Miller, right, talk to the media Tuesday about the Brooklyn Bridge flag stunt. (Jefferson Siegel/New York Daily News )
Construction worker Donald Mitchell, 37, said his first thought was terrorism when he spied the American flags bleached completely white.
“You could still see the stars and stripes,” said Mitchell, who was working on the bridge. “My first reaction was, ‘This is where you land the plane. X marks the spot.’ It was really scary.”
The stolen red, white and blue flags hung on the bridge are 12-by-18-foot banners installed by specially trained workers from atop a precarious perch above the East River.
The flags couldn’t have been removed and replaced without someone climbing up to the platform. (Anderson / Splash News) Members of the New York Police Department secure a barrier to the Brooklyn Bridge after two high-flying American flags were swiped overnight. (James Keivom/New York Daily News) Members of the New York Police Department descend the Brooklyn Bridge after removing two white flags. (James Keivom/New York Daily News)
The stolen flags were hung July 10, the day of FDNY Lt. Gordon Matthew Ambelas’ funeral after he died in a Brooklyn high-rise fire.
“I’m so angry I can’t tell you what I want to say,” steamed Cesar Pazmino, who started hanging the bridge flags 21 years ago. “It’s senseless. Whoever did this should be punished to the fullest extent of the law.”
Workers began taking down the white banners around 11 a.m. after police crime scene investigators determined there was no bomb or any notes left with the flags, cops said.
With Rikki Reyna
[email protected] ||||| NEW YORK (AP) — Police are searching for four or five people they believe scaled to the top of the Brooklyn Bridge's two towers in the dead of night, disabled lights illuminating two large American flags and then replaced the flags with bleached-white ones.

The security breach at one of the city's most secured landmarks didn't appear to be the work of terrorists or even a political statement, said the police department's deputy commissioner for counterterrorism and intelligence, but was likely done by people familiar with climbing or bridgework who may even have scaled the bridge before.
"We don't take these things lightly, or as a joke, or as art or within the realm of speech," John Miller said. "These are issues of trespass — they put themselves in danger, they put others in danger — and that's why we investigate it."
Video footage of the security breach shows the unidentified people walking on the bridge's footpath at about 3:10 a.m., and 20 minutes later the light on the bridge's Brooklyn tower flickers and goes dark, Miller said. The same thing happens about 12 minutes later on the Manhattan tower, he said.
Locked gates midway up the main cables leading to the tops of the towers didn't appear to have been tampered with, suggesting the climbers scaled them to reach the top, Miller said.
Two police cars sit at either end of the bridge, which stretches the East River connecting lower Manhattan and Brooklyn, and are fed real-time security camera footage trained on areas affecting the structural integrity of the bridge, Miller said, but those cameras didn't capture the flag bandits.
At about 5:30 a.m., construction workers noticed the white flags, apparently American flags about 20 feet by 11 feet and perhaps commercial grade, with faded stars and stripes, police said. Police removed the white flags just before noon.
The flags fly from above the pillars year-round and are replaced by transportation workers when they become frayed about every two months, police said. They are lit from the bottom by a lamp at the base of each tower at night — lights that were covered by aluminum foil cooking sheets secured with zip ties, Miller said.
More than 120,000 vehicles, 4,000 pedestrians and 3,100 bicyclists cross the Brooklyn Bridge every day, said the city's Department of Transportation, which maintains it.
Tourist Johan Lund, from Stockholm, Sweden, crossed the bridge Tuesday and did a double take when he noticed the white flags flapping in the wind.
"Wasn't there an American flag there yesterday?" he said to himself.
High-profile breaches have been made before.
In April, a street artist who filmed his effort scaling the Ed Koch-Queensboro Bridge as part of an art installation was arrested on criminal trespass and other charges. And in March, four skydiving enthusiasts were charged with reckless endangerment for sneaking into 1 World Trade Center, the nation's tallest building, months earlier and filming their jump from atop it. ||||| | Apparently, all you need to orchestrate a prank on the Brooklyn Bridge are aluminum roasting pans and some mad climbing skills. Police say a small group of intruders used the pans to cover floodlights on the bridge's two towers before they hoisted two bleached-white US flags overnight Monday, the AP reports. Authorities say they're looking for four to five people—some of whom likely have construction or bridge work experience—seen in security footage walking on the footpath of the bridge around 3am. Police believe they scaled the main cables leading to the towers, thereby avoiding locked gates. A city worker tells NBC New York that the feat likely took two hours. The actual flag-replacement wasn’t captured by security cameras, and officers in two police cars at either end of the bridge noticed nothing amiss. “To be clear, we’re certainly concerned about it,” the NYPD’s anti-terrorism czar tells the Daily News. No motive is known, and police are scouring social media for clues. (This is the third security breach in New York City in recent months, including these parachuters and this teen.) |
Definition: In this task, you will be presented with a context passage, a question about that paragraph, and a possible answer to that question. The task is to check the validity of the answer. Answer with "Yes" or "No".
Input: The Dutch Take Over: Intent on capturing a piece of the Portuguese trade in pepper and other spices, the Java-based Dutch Ailied with the Malays in 1633 to blockade Melaka. The trade blockade was to last eight years, and ended in a seven-month siege. The Portuguese surrendered in 1641, wracked by malaria and dysentery and denied their usual reinforcements from Goa. By then, the city had become a stagnant backwater. Unlike the Portuguese, the Dutch decided to do business with the Malays of Johor, who controlled the southern half of the peninsula together with Singapore and the neighboring Riau islands. A trade treaty gave the Dutch command of the spice trade but reserved Johor's rights in tin exports from Perak, Selangor, and Klang. Without ever retrieving the supremacy of the old Melaka sultanate, Johor had become the strongest Asian power in the region. For the Dutch, Johor provided a buffer against other Europeans. Meanwhile, fresh blood came in with the migration into the southern interior of hardy Minangkabau farmers from Sumatra, while tough Bugis warriors from the east Indonesian Celebes (Sulawesi) roved the length and breadth of the peninsula. The Minangkabau custom of freely electing their leaders provided the model for rulership elections in modern federal Malaysia. Their confederation of States became today's Negeri Sembilan ("Nine States"), with Seremban as its capital. The name Minangkabau itself means roughly "buffalo horns" and is reflected in the distinctive upward curving roof in museums and government offices built in the traditional Minangkabau style. The Bugis were energetic merchants and great sailors. With the Dutch concentrating once more on Java and the Moluccas in the 18th century, the Bugis took advantage of the vacuum by raiding Perak and Kedah, imposing their chieftains in Selangor and becoming the power behind the throne in Johor. The Bugis in Johor's administration provided much of the spirit in that State's independent stand in the 19th and 20th centuries. Throughout this period, the east coast states enjoyed a relatively tranquil prosperity, Terengganu notably thriving from its textile industry and trading in pepper and gold with the Thais, Cambodians, and Chinese. The British, under the private auspices of the East India Company (EIC), were beginning to poke their noses into North Borneo. <sep>During what centuries did Terengganu thrive from its textile industry and trading in pepper and gold?<sep>The 18th and 19th centuries

Critics say that is not nearly enough compared with other prescribers, such as M.D. psychiatrists or nurse practitioners who have at least six years' medical education and clinical experience. Neither Davison nor most other RxP opponents doubt the efficacy of medications. Their greatest objection is to the notion of turning psychology into a prescribing profession. In a field that has struggled long and hard to prove that mind, mood and behavior can be studied empirically, the past decade, Davison says, has seen "exciting developments" that demonstrate the validity of various psychotherapeutic interventions and the psychosocial-behavioral models on which they are based. "The timing is peculiar to abandon psychological science or to convert it to a medical science," explains Elaine M. Heiby of the University of Hawaii, who chairs a committee of the 1,000-member American Association of Applied and Preventive Psychology that is concerned about the medicalization of psychology. "Making sure that practicing psychologists are giving patients interventions based on the best available psychological science should be the APA's priority," argues Emory University's Scott Lilienfeld, president of the Society for a Science of Clinical Psychology (SSCP). More than any philosophical betrayal of psychology, RxP opponents fear that the movement will undermine the science they love. They believe that if prescriptive authority becomes the norm, biomedical requirements will inevitably seep into the psychology curriculum, at the expense of traditional psychological science and methodology. Lilienfeld feels that many clinical psychologists already receive inadequate training in fundamentals such as research design and evaluation. RxP opponents charge the APA with pushing its prescription-privileges agenda without adequately assessing support for it in the field. The 300-member SSCP is the only group within the APA to have taken a formal stance against prescription privileges. The APA has scheduled 30 minutes at its meeting in August for an RxP debate, but its leadership believes it already has an accurate sense of support for its RxP policy. "Except for this small vocal minority, we have just not gotten a lot of groundswell against this from members," says APA president Philip G. Zimbardo of Stanford University. With prescription privileges now a reality in one state, some RxP opponents concede that it may be too late. This year four states besides New Mexico -- Georgia, Hawaii, Illinois and Tennessee -- have pending legislation for psychologist prescription privileges. Over the past decade, 14 state legislatures have considered such laws. Between 1991 and 1997, a U.S. Department of Defense psychopharmacology demonstration project involving two to four years' training produced 10 military psychologists who can write prescriptions. <sep>What is the greatest objection of RxP opponents?<sep>The notion of turning psychology into a prescription profession | Yes |
Problem: How to make friends with a stepdaughter
Talk to the biological parent first.
Find out what the daughter's interests are and the sorts of things she enjoys most. Knowing this in advance will help you to avoid any awkward silences and can help you to build bridges towards a strong relationship. OPTIONS:
- Approach the biological parent again so that you can make a mutual friend. Introduce yourself by saying, " hi, i'm rick " or " i am chris ".
- Another good reason for finding out what your stepdaughter likes is that you can look up anything you're unfamiliar with, so that you can ask well informed questions to encourage her to talk more about it. Stand in the shoes of your stepdaughter.
- Ask if you could continue to see the biological parent so you can start a bond with the stepdaughter from the beginning of the relationship. Look for examples of her looks that you could compliment: drop-dead gorgeous short hair, fresh red lipstick, long lips, bright blue eyes.
- Being friends means mutual respect, that both parent (s) meet each other equally and appreciate each other's interests. You can do this by asking your stepdaughter specific questions, or asking her to go out of her way to show an interest in you.
Answer: Another good reason for finding out what your stepdaughter likes is that you can look up anything you're unfamiliar with, so that you can ask well informed questions to encourage her to talk more about it. Stand in the shoes of your stepdaughter.
Problem: How to keep your rabbit's fur clean and untangled
Identify any soiled areas.
Spot-cleaning your rabbit is the recommended method for keeping its coat clean. The first thing you'll need to do is identify any areas of its coat that are dirty. OPTIONS:
- While area-cleaning usually goes against the general concerns about your rabbit's fur, stains can be easily identified. Common places that can stain include dried red and green dye, skin punctures, dirt spots, or fluid trails.
- You can find a small-scale spot-cleaning kit at your local pet store, or you can make your own dip-bath. Avoid increasing the amount of water given to your rabbit and using harsh soap, as this can alter its fur.
- In general, a rabbit's problem areas are their backside, tail, feet, and belly because these are all places they may be unable to reach easily on their own. Look for dirt, food, and feces stains, as well as wet spots, which are often urine.
- If they're dirty, don't leave them. They can also be soiled by scratching.

Not to heap more praise on a man who already is getting way too much love, but there are some great anecdotes about New York media in the Steve Jobs biography. Poynter collected a few of them, and we’ve pulled out our favorites.
According to the author, Walter Issacson, Jobs wanted to help journalism and in particular the New York Times. Before the iPad launched, Jobs met with about 50 of the paper’s leaders and told them that the Times’ app should be offered at a midpoint price ($5 “at most”) in order to reach the most readers. Jobs was determined to help the Times figure out digital subscriptions as well, claiming, “I think it’s important for the country for them to figure it out.”
Another great moment in Steve Jobs involved Rupert Murdoch and Fox News. Despite developing a bond with Murdoch as they collaborated on The Daily, Jobs bluntly told Murdoch over dinner one night that Fox would eventually ruin the owner of News Corporation.
“You’re blowing it with Fox News,” Jobs said. “The axis today is not liberal and conservative, the axis is constructive-destructive, and you’ve cast your lot with the destructive people. Fox has become an incredibly destructive force in our society. You can be better, and this is going to be your legacy if you’re not careful.”
Not only was Jobs a techie, it seems he was a prophet as well. ||||| Rupert Murdoch must have imagined Steve Jobs would be a feisty dinner guest. Even still, the News Corp. chairman couldn't have foreseen that, in one night at the mogul's Carmel, California ranch, Jobs would call his tech people incompetent, get a guy fired, and say that Fox News was literally destroying the world.
Walter Isaacson's new biography of the Apple co-founder says Jobs railed against the conservative news channel and tried to convince Murdoch to shut it down. His comments came at the 2010 iteration of News Corp.'s annual management retreat. Isaacson writes:
In return for speaking at the retreat, Jobs got Murdoch to hear him out on Fox News, which he believed was destructive, harmful to the nation, and a blot on Murdoch's reputation. "You're blowing it with Fox News," Jobs told him over dinner. "The axis today is not liberal and conservative, the axis is conservative-destructive, and you've cast your lot with the destructive people. Fox has become a destructive force in our society. You can be better, and this is going to be your legacy if you're not careful." Jobs said he thought Murdoch did not really like how far Fox has gone. "Rupert's a builder, not a tearer-downer," he said... Murdoch later said he was used to people like Jobs complaining about Fox. "He's got sort of a left wing view on this," he said. Jobs asked him to have his folks make a reel of Sean Hannity and Glenn Beck shows - he thought they were more destructive than Bill O'Reilly - and Murdoch agreed to do so.
Isaacson's book also confirms our 2010 item about how the Wall Street Journal's Gordon McLeod got fired for crossing Jobs at the same Carmel retreat. According to the biography, Jobs said in a post-dinner Q&A that newspapers like the Journal were bungling their use of technology, in part because "you're in New York and anyone who's any good at tech works in Silicon Valley." McLeod, a Gotham based digital executive, took issue, and later told Jobs, "thanks, it was a wonderful evening, but you probably cost me my job." Murdoch added, "It ended up being true."
Hannity, Beck, O'Reilly and paranoiac Fox News boss Roger Ailes, meanwhile, all still have their jobs. It sounds like somebody missed Steve Jobs's point. If a master persuader of Jobs's caliber couldn't break Murdoch's loyalty to Ailes, it's hard to imagine anyone else will, either.

Output: | Steve Jobs told Rupert Murdoch to his face last year that Fox News is "destructive" and that he was "blowing it" with the conservative news channel, reports Gawker, in the latest round of excerpts from Walter Isaacson's biography of the Apple founder. Jobs was invited to speak at the annual News Corp management retreat in 2010, and in exchange for talking he got to speak directly with Murdoch. "Fox has become a destructive force in our society," Jobs told Murdoch over dinner. "You can be better, and this is going to be your legacy if you're not careful." Murdoch, for his part, seemed unconcerned by the criticism from Jobs' "left-wing view." Not only was Jobs facing down Fox News, he was also trying to push traditional journalism, especially the New York Times, says Mediabistro. Before the launch of the iPad, Jobs met with the leadership of the Times, offering them advice about the newspaper's app and digital subscription service, suggesting they charge $5 at most. “I think it’s important for the country for them to figure it out," Jobs said. At the dinner with Murdoch, Jobs said papers like the Wall Street Journal were terrible with technology, largely because "you're in New York and anyone who's any good at tech works in Silicon Valley." |

As one NSC staff note put it, "Under the Taliban, Afghanistan is not so much a state sponsor of terrorism as it is a state sponsored by terrorists." In early 2000, the United States began a high-level effort to persuade Pakistan to use its influence over the Taliban. In January 2000, Assistant Secretary of State Karl Inderfurth and the State Department's counterterrorism coordinator, Michael Sheehan, met with General Musharraf in Islamabad, dangling before him the possibility of a presidential visit in March as a reward for Pakistani cooperation. Such a visit was coveted by Musharraf, partly as a sign of his government's legitimacy. He told the two envoys that he would meet with Mullah Omar and press him on Bin Laden. They left, however, reporting to Washington that Pakistan was unlikely in fact to do anything," given what it sees as the benefits of Taliban control of Afghanistan." President Clinton was scheduled to travel to India. The State Department felt that he should not visit India without also visiting Pakistan. The Secret Service and the CIA, however, warned in the strongest terms that visiting Pakistan would risk the President's life. Counterterrorism officials also argued that Pakistan had not done enough to merit a presidential visit. But President Clinton insisted on including Pakistan in the itinerary for his trip to South Asia. His one-day stopover on March 25, 2000, was the first time a U.S. president had been there since 1969. At his meeting with Musharraf and others, President Clinton concentrated on tensions between Pakistan and India and the dangers of nuclear proliferation, but also discussed Bin Laden. President Clinton told us that when he pulled Musharraf aside for a brief, one-on-one meeting, he pleaded with the general for help regarding Bin Laden." I offered him the moon when I went to see him, in terms of better relations with the United States, if he'd help us get Bin Laden and deal with another issue or two." The U.S. effort continued. <sep>Why did Musharraf want the President to visit Pakistan?<sep>It would be a sign of his government's legitimacy

Input: Consider Input: The digestive system is the body system that digests food. It digest food in two ways, mechanically and chemically. Both help in the process of turning food into nutrients. The digestive system also eliminates solid food waste. The major organs of the digestive system include the mouth, esophagus, stomach, and small and large in- testines. These organs all work together to help you gain energy from the food you eat. Digestion starts in the mouth. When food is swallowed, it travels through the esophagus to the stomach. In the stomach, digestion continues and a small amount of absorption of nutrients takes place. Most chemical digestion and nearly all absorption of nutrients take place in the small intestine. This organ consists of three parts: duodenum, jejunum, and ileum. The large intestine is the last stop in the digestive system. This is where water is absorbed. The food not digested is released as waste. <sep>What does the digestive system do?<sep>Digests food
Output: Yes
Input: Consider Input: (CNN) -- Air New Zealand's latest in-flight safety video, released Tuesday, is already another viral hit but is encountering some turbulence over its use of several bikini-clad Sports Illustrated models. View the video here Previous versions of the video -- starring anything from Hobbits to Bear Grylls to New Zealand's all conquering All Blacks rugby team -- have revolutionized the on-board safety message airlines deliver to passengers. The most recent effort though is being criticized by some as neither ground-breaking nor as creative, after the airline teamed up with Sports Illustrated magazine to produce what it's calling "The world's most beautiful safety video." The "Safety in Paradise" video, which rolls out on Air New Zealand flights at the end of February, is beautifully shot and certainly cheerful and fun. It was filmed in the Cook Islands -- home to several stunning beaches -- and coincides with the 50th anniversary of Sports Illustrated's Swimsuit franchise. Earlier videos have been witty, clever and quirky but the paradise video combines a far less subtle use of eye-catching material -- using four of the planet's most beautiful, and scantily clad women, to deliver information to passengers. The models include Ariel Meredith, Chrissy Teigen, Hannah Davis and Jessica Gomes. Christie Brinkley makes a cameo. "It seems that suddenly they are saying that my sexuality is all that matters about me," one critic, Massey University lecturer and feminist commentator Deborah Russell told the Sydney Morning Herald. Social media reaction to the video was predictably mixed, though the majority of commenters on Facebook and Twitter appeared to support the video -- and the women in it. Many praised Air New Zealand for using beautiful women to promote the Cook Islands and complimented the airline on its marketing prowess, given the mass of media attention now being given to the safety video. From the negative corner, while some commented they were appalled Air New Zealand would be so sexist, others said the Sports Illustrated version just isn't all that clever -- a disappointing follow up to the airline's creative safety videos of the past. <sep>Which women appeared in the "Safety in Paradise" safety video?<sep>Ariel Meredith

Problem:Registration fees for Illinois lawyers could jump as much as $49 a year if lawmakers adopt two separate measures to bolster pro-bono services and support for lawyers with drug and alcohol problems. The Illinois Supreme Court is pushing for legislation that would allow it to dedicate money raised through the fee hikes to legal services to the poor. The justices are floating a $42 increase to shore up financing for pro-bono work, as the normal funding mechanism for legal services has fallen short in recent years. Currently, support for non-profit legal aid groups comes from interest generated on the Lawyers' Trust Fund, which pools clients' money that attorneys hold for such matters as escrow funds. But low interest rates and a sagging economy mean there is less money being generated. After hours of discussion, the high court agreed that raising the registration fees would be the best way to address the declining revenues, Chief Justice Moses W. Harrison II said. The judges were reluctant to raise those fees but eventually decided that supporting probono services was important enough "and lawyers had a responsibility to contribute" to the cause, Harrison said. Last year, the high court raised the base fee for active attorneys to $180 from $140. Lawyers in their first three years of practice or who are inactive pay $90, and retired lawyers pay nothing. Legislation circulated by the high court's lobbyist specifies that the hike would apply to attorneys "paying full annual registration fees." In 2001, there were 57,392 active attorneys in Illinois and 74,311 on the full roll, according to the Attorney Registration and Disciplinary Commission. The hike would raise roughly $2.4 million. Last year, interest on the trust fund totaled $4.5 million, but service and handling fees consumed $538,000 of that amount. This year's returns are projected to be anywhere between $700,000 and $1 million short of that mark, said Ruth Ann Schmitt, the executive director of Lawyers Trust Fund of Illinois. Harrison said the fee hikes are designed only to counter the shortfall in interest income, not add to the total amount available. "Our legal services are already stretched to the breaking point," Schmitt said. "We have a tough time raising enough money to properly fund services that our clients need." Neither the Illinois State Bar Association nor The Chicago Bar Association has taken a stance on the proposed hikes. <sep>The Judges reluctantly raised the rates to how much?<sep>$42
