Demonstrators, some waving Ukrainian and European Union flags, gather in Kiev's Independence Square to denounce President Viktor Yanukovich's rejection of an association agreement with the EU.
KIEV, Ukraine — Ukraine's president faced growing street protests at home Friday after he rejected an agreement to tie his nation's political and economic future to the West, instead keeping intact Ukraine's historical links with Moscow.
The news that President Viktor Yanukovich came away from the European Union summit in Lithuania empty-handed angered thousands of mostly young demonstrators who gathered in Kiev's Independence Square, site of massive protests that triggered the Orange Revolution against pro-Russian rule nearly a decade ago, to demand that the president be impeached and the association agreement with the EU be signed.
The conflict goes to the heart of deep divisions between the country's mostly pro-European west and its eastern industrial regions tied to Russia, which still wields great influence over Ukraine more than two decades after the collapse of the Soviet Union.
Yanukovich suggested Friday that he would sign the association agreement, which would improve trade and other ties with the EU, if measures could be worked out to aid the Ukrainian economy's "adjustment to new conditions."
The president maintains that the EU was offering Ukraine about $830 million to shore up its economy as it adjusted to the standards demanded by the association and that the country needed about $220 billion.
"I am sure that as a result of this work the existing contradictions will be lifted that will allow us to sign the agreement and enable the strategic movement toward European integration without serious losses for the economy of Ukraine," Yanukovich was quoted as saying on his official website.
Other participants in the EU summit suggested that Ukraine pulled back under strong pressure from Russia and its president, Vladimir Putin, with whom Yanukovich recently had three meetings. Ukrainian Foreign Minister Leonid Kozhara "in our discussions confirms that Ukraine has succumbed to severe Russian economic pressure in postponing EU agreement," Swedish Foreign Minister Carl Bildt wrote on his Twitter account.
The EU on Friday announced new association agreements with two other former Soviet republics, Georgia and Moldova.
Brandishing yellow-and-blue Ukrainian flags and the blue banner of the EU, protesters gathered Friday in Kiev, the Ukrainian capital, carrying signs calling on Yanukovich to "Go to Siberia. We want to live in Europe!" They tore up and trampled leaflets with a drawing of Yanukovich's face and the word "Sign!"
The president betrayed his people, said Natalia Pylypiv, a 20-year-old geology student from the western city of Ivano-Frankivsk, as thousands of demonstrators chanted, "Impeachment, impeachment!" around her in the square on the cold afternoon.
"I came to Kiev to help influence the signing of the agreement, but what I feel now is utter disappointment," said Pylypiv, who had symbols of the European Union and Ukraine painted on her cheeks. "I can't stand seeing Yanukovich tearing himself between Europe and Mr. Putin, and I hate to see Putin winning."
Pylypiv said she and a friend hitchhiked to Kiev after police sought to prevent students in Ivano-Frankivsk from boarding buses bound for the capital, more than 300 miles away.
"We stood [at a pro-European integration rally] in Ivano-Frankivsk in cold and rain for three days before we came here," Pylypiv said. "We will stay here to the end to make the authorities change their decision."
Though Yanukovich told Ukrainian television that he had not "coordinated" with Russia on his decision, prominent lawmaker and billionaire chocolate maker Petro Poroshenko said it was clear that Moscow had put pressure on Ukraine before the negotiations in Vilnius, the Lithuanian capital.
He said that as of summer, about 27,000 Ukrainians had been banned from entering Russia, the Russian energy giant Gazprom was threatening to impose sanctions over debts owed by Ukraine, and more than 600 of his nation's enterprises were barred from doing business in Russia, including his own Roshen, a major producer of chocolates and other candies.
"If this is the price I personally have to pay for our integration in Europe, I don't mind," Poroshenko, a former minister of economics and of foreign affairs, said in an interview with The Times. "The agreement with the EU is the only chance for Ukraine to modernize its economy and conduct sweeping reforms, something Russia badly needs too. Russia continues to see its interests and influence in Ukraine in a quite distorted way."
The refusal to sign the agreement reflected the ruling political elite's unwillingness to make the sacrifices necessary to join Europe, said Vadim Karasyov, director of the Institute of Global Strategies, a Kiev think tank.
"For the post-Soviet kleptocratic elite, the association with Western Europe means the inevitable change of political and economic regime in conditions of more democracy and a more competitive economy," Karasyov said. "For Yanukovich and his allies, it is a sure way of self-extermination. This is why they choose sliding back to stagnation in Putin's company."
Ukraine is committed by a controversial agreement signed by former Prime Minister Yulia Tymoshenko, a leader of the Orange Revolution, to buy 50 billion cubic meters of natural gas a year from Russia at what critics saw as too high a price. Yanukovich narrowly defeated Tymoshenko in the 2010 presidential election, and the following year she was convicted of abuse of power for signing the agreement and sentenced to seven years in prison in a much-criticized case that further strained Ukraine's negotiations with the EU.
One of the earlier EU conditions for signing the association agreement was the release of Tymoshenko to Germany for medical treatment, a move Yanukovich rejected as beyond his presidential powers. Tymoshenko remains in prison, where she declared a hunger strike this week.
As protesters massed in Independence Square on Friday, a pro-Yanukovich rally was held in European Square less than a mile away. Several thousand participants — predominantly middle-aged men and women, most of them municipal and industrial workers from eastern and central regions of the country — were brought to Kiev by busloads organized by local authorities, some of those gathered told The Times. Many of them were carrying blue flags of the ruling Party of Regions.
"I am glad the agreement was not signed because otherwise it would make many people lose their jobs in our area, where unemployment is already very high," said Larisa Andriets, 52, a social worker from the central industrial city of Zhytomyr dressed in a blue Party of Regions jacket. "We must stay with Russia like back in the old days when everybody was happy."
By nightfall the pro-government gathering had dissolved while the opposition rally in Independence Square had swelled in numbers.
Vitali Klitschko, a world heavyweight boxing champion and Ukrainian opposition lawmaker who plans to challenge Yanukovich in the 2015 presidential election, flew back to Kiev from Lithuania and issued a statement accusing the president of "high treason."
"Today they stole our hope," Klitschko told the crowd in Independence Square. "We must demand the current leadership go. Only new leaders can sign the association."
After Klitschko's speech, the protesters chanted: "Revolution! Revolution!"

No Direction Home: Bob Dylan
Directed by Martin Scorsese, No Direction Home: Bob Dylan is a documentary film about the life and career of Bob Dylan from his early life and impact on popular culture until the 1966 motorcycle accident that would nearly kill him and put him into a temporary retirement. The film would feature footage of Dylan in those times including archival interviews with Dylan talking about those events as well as a look into the folk music scene of the times. The result is an engrossing and evocative film from Martin Scorsese.
In the 1960s during a period of social change, folk music was considered the soundtrack to express these changes during the Civil Rights movement as well as with what was happening politically in those times. The biggest voice of that music scene was Bob Dylan whose songs would be covered by many in the world of folk, pop, and rock music as he was seen as the voice of a generation whether he liked it or not. The film is about Dylan's time in the spotlight until a motorcycle accident in July of 1966 put him into seclusion where he rarely made public appearances for eight years until he toured again in 1974 with the Band. Dylan is interviewed from a 2000 conversation with his manager Jeff Rosen about these events as Rosen allowed the interview to be used in the film as many of the interviews with individuals involved such as Allen Ginsberg, Peter Yarrow, Pete Seeger, Mavis Staples, Al Kooper, Joan Baez, Bob Neuwirth, filmmaker D.A. Pennebaker, and Dylan's former girlfriend from the early 1960s in Suze Rotolo are dated as far back as the mid-1990s.
Using a lot of archival footage including material and outtakes from documentary films such as D.A. Pennebaker's Dont Look Back and Murray Lerner's Festival plus the rarely-seen documentary about Dylan's 1966 tour in the film Eat the Document. Martin Scorsese would create a narrative that play into Dylan's early life and his ascent into stardom that is inter-cut with footage from the 1966 tour in Europe where he is getting a polarized reaction for playing rock n' roll. Scorsese play into not just Dylan's early life living in a small town of Hibbing, Minnesota where it was an ordinary town yet he would discover different kinds of music late at night from the early ideas of rock n' roll, blues, folk, and country music. Dylan also talked about the folk music scene of the early 1960s where it wasn't about people getting famous but rather create a community of art and music without any kind of complications and create some kind of commentary about what is happening in America.
Through the interviews with Baez, Staples, Neuwirth, and several others that was shot by several cinematographers led by Mustapha Barat with contributions from Maryse Alberti and Ellen Kuras, Scorsese manages to get an idea of how Dylan coped with his fame as Scorsese would do an audio re-enactment of the 1963 Emergency Civil Liberties Committee ceremony where Dylan received the Tom Paine award as it was a moment that had Dylan display his discomfort of being a voice for any kind of movement. With the help of sound editor Philip Stockton, Scorsese would use that moment to play into a moment that would mark a change in Dylan from being this folk singer into wanting to be something else. Even as Baez and Rotolo discuss how their relationship with Dylan would change and fall apart in that time of his growing fame as it would force him to do other things while Baez would continue to create protest music as a way to speak about what is going on.
With the help of editor David Tedeschi, Scorsese would compile various concert footage including rare footage from Dylan's 1966 tour that includes the infamous show at the Manchester Free Trade Hall where a fan screamed "Judas" at him for betraying the folk movement. It all play into Dylan's refusal to be labeled for other people while he would admit that he was arrogant into the way he treated himself as a major figure. Even as the tour would serve as the peak of his public persona as this unlikely spokesman of a generation who was becoming increasingly difficult and didn't care about what his audience thought.
No Direction Home: Bob Dylan is a sensational film from Martin Scorsese. It's a sprawling documentary film in a near-4 hour running time that chronicles Dylan at his most famous as well as his most controversial with the man getting the chance to talk about that period. Even as it showcases rare footage and insight into the period of the times including Dylan's early background. In the end, No Direction Home: Bob Dylan is a spectacular film from Martin Scorsese.

Idaho porn star pleads guilty to hiring a hitman to kill her child's father
Nate Eaton, EastIdahoNews.com
Updated at 5:49 pm, August 8, 2019
Katrina "Katie" Lynn Danfort | Courtesy NBC
COEUR D'ALENE — An adult film actress from Idaho accused of trying to hire a hitman to kill the father of her child could face up to 20 years in prison.
Katrina "Katie" Lynn Danforth, 32, of Post Falls, pled guilty this week to two counts of use of interstate commerce facilities in the commission of murder for hire.
Danforth admitted that in October, she agreed to pay a hitman to murder someone. She met with the hitman late last year, called him on the phone and mailed him a "thank-you" card with a $2,500 cash down payment, according to the U.S. Attorney's Office.
The hitman was actually an undercover police officer, and Danforth was arrested Dec. 19 at the Spokane International Airport. She has remained jailed since then.
Danforth "had specific requirements that the hitman was to accomplish," according to the plea agreement obtained by NBC News. The body needed to be easily found, and Danforth "did not care if others who lived in the home were harmed," as long as her child remained safe. The plea agreement says the intended victim is the father of one of Danforth's children.
Danforth is scheduled to be sentenced Dec. 2 at the federal courthouse in Coeur d'Alene. She could face up to 10 years in federal prison and a fine of up to $250,000 for each of the two counts.
She has performed in adult films under the names Lynn Passion and Lynn Pleasant.

Logistics and customs clearance are two key stages in the cross-border e-commerce chain. Hong Kong needs to improve both. Photo: Xinhua
Zhang Yuge - Nov 7, 2015 8:01am
How Guangdong FTZ e-commerce plan can benefit Hong Kong
Cross-border e-commerce has an important role in Guangdong's free trade zone development.
The blueprint strengthens supervision of port operations, quarantine services, taxation and cross-border foreign exchange trading, among others.
Zhuhai's Hengqing economic zone has been designated as a pilot area for cross-border e-commerce while Guangzhou's Nansha district will become an experimental zone for port-related e-commerce.
Shekou district in Shenzhen's Qianhai area has attracted great attention due to its connection with Hong Kong.
According to the plan, the area will be built into a national e-commerce ecosystem.
Here, pilot schemes will be launched to develop online and offline foreign trade and create industry clusters worth several hundred billion yuan.
The 30 square kilometer zone will be centered around Shekou.
It will build on existing infrastructure such as the Shenzhen and Hong Kong airports, shipping facilities and postal services.
This is in line with Beijing's efforts to build an Asia-Europe economic corridor called "One Belt, One Road" and give it a bigger say in world trade.
Supply and demand can be matched instantly through the internet and logistics providers can respond in real time, creating more demand for cross-border e-commerce.
Hong Kong companies should target mainland customers to develop its cross-border e-commerce business.
They will be able to negotiate prices directly with foreign brands thanks to improved customs procedures and delivery services.
However, they need to explore new markets to diversify their products and services.
The Hong Kong government can help by providing a one-stop cross-border e-commerce platform.
In fact, some Hong Kong merchants have dedicated online shopping platforms for mainland buyers, although many of them have yet to build transit centers to be able to deliver directly to mainland cities.
Logistics and customs clearance are two key stages in the cross-border e-commerce chain.
At the moment, Chinese online shoppers, commonly refered to as "haitao", have to go through various checks after placing an order before they can take delivery.
This wastes time due to an underdeveloped e-commerce logistics infrastructure and ambiguous government policy.
The Hong Kong government should discuss these issues with Beijing and there's no better time to take action than now.
Hong Kong, which continues to rely on a traditional retail business model, has been hit by a fall in Chinese arrivals.
In the first eight months, inbound traffic fell 0.1 percent from a year earlier.
Tourist spending slipped 1.6 percent from the previous year.
The decline has been attributed to a sluggish global economy, competition from other destinations, a strong Hong Kong dollar, limited tourism resources and frictions between local residents and mainland visitors.
The "haitao" mindset has also had a negative impact on revenue.
But the tourism industry has paid little attention to the challenge posed by cross-border e-commerce on traditional businesses.
Johnny Ng, vice chairman of the Hong Kong United Youth Association, said Hong Kong relies too much on traditional retailing.
He said it has failed to blow fresh air into the retail industry nor has it created a new business model to replace the old one.
Hong Kong needs to strengthen its business ties with the rest of the Pearl River delta region to tap into its vast hinterland and growing economy.

Alexandria, La., Network Administrator Gary Walker deployed an email defense to dramatically decrease spam and its associated threats.
Security Solutions Fight Spam and the Threats It Brings to Local Government
Protect your systems from the scourge that can bring malware, viruses and ransomware.
Karen J. Bannan
Karen J. Bannan is a freelance writer and editor who has written for a variety of publications including The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal, Time and CIO.
Five years ago, the employees of Alexandria, La., complained a lot about spam. It filled their inboxes and caused constant headaches for IT team members and city workers alike.
Fast-forward to July 2017, when the city received 32,294 emails. Only 3,082 made it to inboxes. Alexandria's email defense — a SonicWall appliance — quarantined the rest and classified them all as spam. It's an outcome that keeps virus and malware attacks down and improves user productivity and satisfaction, says Gary Walker, a network administrator for the city.
"Every email is scanned and run through anti-virus programs," Walker says. "As an administrator, it's something you have to do. If you don't run a spam solution in a large environment, you're asking for trouble."
Spam presents a problem for a variety of reasons — and not just the obvious ones. Although most spam is simply online junk mail, some carries viruses, malware and malicious links that can take down a network or expose data and applications to theft.
Organizations have seen a decrease in spam over the past few years, but the threat level appears to be increasing again: More than 3,000 spam messages went out every second in 2016, up from fewer than 1,500 a second in previous years, according to the Cisco 2017 Annual Cybersecurity Report.
That same study found that 8 percent of spam contains malware, viruses and ransomware. Another analysis, from the Anti-Phishing Working Group, reported that the total number of phishing attacks in 2016 increased 65 percent over 2015. Spam now fools many more people, as hackers become smarter and use social engineering or stolen data to improve open and click-through rates and circumvent traditional email filtering. State and local IT teams must consider new strategies to avoid succumbing to that onslaught.
Hunting Down Hidden Dangers in Spam
Spam often acts as a vessel to trick recipients into sharing personal information or login credentials. "You see a lot of tailored emails that use social media to make them look real, and that's a problem because very personalized emails are easy to fall for," says John Pescatore, director of emerging security trends at the SANS Institute, a nonprofit security training and research firm.
Once an employee shares data, attackers can turn an email server into a spam bot, which creates a drag on network productivity and a threat to email reputation. It can affect overall productivity too, if employees spend time deleting unwanted messages or IT gets bogged down in damage control.
Spam and its aftermath can also keep constituents from completing necessary business, says Rishma Khimji, assistant IT director for the city of Reno, Nev. "We don't want to inconvenience our constituents if someone in a city agency gets hit and they can't process a tax payment or request a permit."
Email Filtering Helps Cities Say No to Spam
IT executives use several tools to combat spam and the security threats it brings. Norfolk, Va., which often faces major phishing campaigns, relies on Microsoft Office 365 for Government and boosts its spam safeguards with Microsoft Exchange Online Protection, a cloud-based email filtering service. During a recent attack, cybercriminals sent emails designed to look like they were from the city's internet provider.
"The emails asked more than 200 employees to provide their credentials so the provider could research a possible security breach," says Steven DeBerry, the city's CIO.
While some zero-day attacks like that get through, DeBerry says he's happy with his program, which uses anti-malware, policy filtering and content filtering to reduce the amount of spam that hits inboxes. "In the past week, the solution captured 90,000 spam messages and 200 emails with malware," he says.
In Tacoma, Wash., the cloud-based Proofpoint Enterprise Protection with F-Secure has freed up the IT help desk, says CISO Ron Jimerson. Spam-related calls previously inundated the team, which also handled malware that came in via email. The help desk spent countless hours fielding complaints and dealing with the fallout from those who took the spammers' bait. Tacoma's Proofpoint solution analyzes sender-recipient relationships, domain reputation, email headers and content to ferret out spam and other malicious messages, keeping inboxes clear.
"Spammers are very smart. We might get a fake email from the city manager addressing the finance manager to make a transfer," Jimerson says. "Getting rid of that spam gives us a tremendous amount of cost savings."
Hardware Provides a Proactive Approach Filtering
Some organizations turn to hardware to fight spam, malware and viruses. For example, in Alexandria's city offices, a SonicWall email security appliance scans all inbound and outbound traffic that uses Simple Message Transfer Protocol, looking at the messages and attachments. The device searches for and isolates anything suspicious, including known and unknown viruses and malware, spoofed email addresses, and blocked domains and IP addresses. Reno uses a hybrid approach — a cloud-based email program with built-in spam filtering as its first line of defense, and a Sophos XG Firewall web gateway appliance as backup protection.
"The appliance lets us see traffic coming in," says Khimji. "If we see increased packets from a specific IP or sender, we can do smart blocking. We're now able to get out of the reactive business model and into the proactive model."
Those technologies, which perform anti-spam and active scanning, can identify whether messages have any malicious intent. They're also able to do something that previous gateways couldn't, says SANS Institute's Pescatore.
"Some of the better gateways will look at traffic and know that a message has a URL in it that is a domain registered a week ago with a personal credit card," he says, referencing a tactic used by cybercriminals. "They know, based on that information, that the message contains a threat."
