Photos show soldier with Ore. ties still captive in Afghanistan

KABUL, Afghanistan — A U.S.-based militant media monitor says new video footage has been released showing a man who appears to be Spc. Bowe Bergdahl, the only known American serviceman being held in captivity in Afghanistan.

Bergdahl of Hailey, Idaho, has been held by the Taliban since June 30, 2009, when he disappeared in Paktika province in eastern Afghanistan. His godmother, Kimberly Harrison-Dellacorva lives in Portland. She told KGW in the past that Bergdahl is a man motivated by his pasion to protect not only his country, but his fellow soldiers.

According to Col. Tim Marsano with the Idaho National Guard, Bergdahl’s family has seen the photos released by a video production group called Manba al-Jihad, which has ties to the Taliban. There is no indication when the photos were taken, but the family confirms the man in the pictures is Bowe Bergdahl.

CNN reports in a nearly 45-minute video that was also released, Bergdahl is wearing an open-necked, tan shirt and has a large abrasion on his left cheek. He appears clean-shaven, although in earlier videos released to the media, Bergdahl had a beard.

A speaker in the video says the Paktia mujahadeen captured the soldier and that he is in the custody of Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan and has all Islamic rights.

The IntelCenter, which tracks militant messages on the Internet, said in a statement released on Wednesday that another man in the video is believed to be a Taliban commander who had threatened to kill Bergdahl.

The new pictures are the first that have been seen of him since April, but it’s not clear when they were taken.

Family Pays Tribute To Pace University Student Killed By Police

Kris Alingod – AHN News Contributor

Pleasantville, NY, United States (AHN) – Family, friends and members of the Pace University football team paid tribute to Danroy “D.J.” Henry Jr. on Friday as the investigation into his death continued.

A memorial service was held at Boston Convention and Visitor Center on what was supposed to be the 21st birthday of Henry, who played wide receiver and defensive back for the football team. The event will be followed by the first game of the football team since his death, a home game on Saturday that will have players wearing black wristbands emobroidered with his number, 12.

Henry died on Oct. 17 after being shot by Mount Pleasant police trying to contain an unruly crowd in a bar in Thornwood. The business management junior allegedly two struck officers with his car.

Police say an officer had knocked on the window of a car parked in the fire lane outside the bar during the brawl. The car, driven by Henry, accelerated and struck the officer, who ended up on the hood of the vehicle. A second officer attempted to pull the first officer from the hood but was also mowed down by the vehicle. The first officer then shot at the car and another officer fired into the car before it crashed into a police cruiser.

Henry’s family and students who witnessed the incident have raised doubts about the police’s reconstruction of events that led to his death. This week, the family requested the Justice Department to take charge of the investigation, citing the leak of a blood alcohol test as proof the probe is compromised. The family has also criticized police for failing to protect gunpowder evidence on the car.

Internet Income – Who Is Mack Michaels Of Maverick Money Makers Club?

Mack Michaels of Maverick Money Makers Club teaches its members to grow to be rich harnessing the power of the Internet as affiliate marketers. I am fortunate to be able to learn from Mack Michaels and though I’m new to the club, I’m surely on my way to becoming a millionaire myself and I believe in this dream. However, this article is not about me but it records the journey of Mack Michaels through his years of struggle to how he became the success that he is today.

Mack Michaels – His Struggles
He worked hard, worked really hard for the money exactly like millions of us all over the world. Hard work in itself was not enough. Mack Michaels was getting by and living paycheck to paycheck. He always wanted to live the “American Dream” but none of his jobs provided him with the satisfaction and the financial freedom he craved. He never got anywhere near making enough money and living the life he always craved for. His family’s financial future was anything but secure.

Just when Mack Michaels thought, it couldn’t get worse. It did. On a gloomy December 7th (his birthday), he got laid off from the only job he had at that point.

He knew he had to do something fast before they ended up homeless and on the streets. This time he thought long and hard before making any move to get yet another job. He got his clarity and vision by asking a simple question: “What is it I really want, and more importantly, what is it I don’t want in a job?”

Mack Michaels Created A Vision
Out of his asking that simple question, Mack Michaels came up with a list of what he wanted and what he did not want.

List Of Don’t Wants
- No boss to boss him around.
- Not to be on anyone else’s time clock or at the mercy of an annoying alarm clock.
- Not to waste time in traffic commuting to work.
- Not to spend more time away from home and family.
- Not to be stressed about expenses.
- Not to make somebody else rich and waste his life working to make someone else wealthy.

List Of Wants
- To work from home or from anywhere he wanted.
- To have a job that gave him as much free time as he wanted.
- To be close to his family and spend more time with them.
- To have an income that would give his family more than enough.
- To have the freedom of being able to travel whenever he wanted.
- To do something he truly enjoyed and was easy to do.
- To work only for a few hours a day.
- To make money even when he was not working. An automated passive income.
- To start making money immediately.

Mack Michaels Realized Vision Was Not Enough
He quickly realized that just having this vision of what he wanted and what he did not want was not enough because he bought many products that promised him riches only to discover soon that he’d been taken for a ride and he had maxed out his credit cards. Within 6 months, he was back to holding 3 jobs that were laborious and stressful and he was neck deep down in debt to a tune of $23,769. Mack Michaels again came up with another list of what was working against him in his quest for wealth.

- He didn’t know how to create a product.
- He didn’t know how to set up a website.
- He didn’t know how to set up a payment system.
- He didn’t know HTML or coding or even upload files to a server.
- He didn’t know anything about an autoresponder.
- He didn’t know “pay per click” or PPC advertising.
- He didn’t know how to set up an affiliate program.
- He didn’t know anything about web stats.
- He didn’t know how to run a business and had zero experience with advertising or making money from home.

Power Of Networking – Mack Michaels Takes The Step To Network With Others
The next step he took was something most of us never do. He quit buying products and started to network to get to know the people who were successful and knew what he didn’t know.

After months of networking, he met Matt – a programming God of sorts. Mack and Matt got along and started working on Mack Michael’s plans of automating systems and making money together. They harnessed each other’s strengths and the systems and programs they built started making them money. A lot of money. Within 3 months, he was able to quit all 3 of the jobs he was working at the time and paid off all his debts. His life completely turned around in less than 6 months, he now had an easy job working from home for less than 4 hours a day yet making much more money than the salaries of the three jobs combined.

This gave birth to the exclusive club, Maverick Money Makers where Mack Michaels personally along with his team members mentor folks from all over the world looking to have the same income and financial freedom that Mack enjoys.
