At least 45 people, most of them voodoo priests, have been lynched in Haiti since the beginning of the cholera epidemic by angry mobs blaming them for the spread of the disease, officials said.
"People who practice voodoo have nothing to do with the cholera epidemic," said Max Beauvoir, the head of a voodoo organization in the Caribbean country.
Some of the victims were killed with machetes, others were burned alive by mobs that added tires and gasoline to stoke the fires. The cholera outbreak started in October.
The victims have been targeted because of "misinformation" that had been circulating in the community that voodoo practitioners were spreading cholera by using witchcraft, according to communications Minister Marie-Laurence Lassegue.

#10820 – Monday the 20th.
Dec. 20th, 2010 08:24 pmDr. D passed away last week. You'll be fondly remembered. Thanks for introducing me to Umberto Eco, and not talking to me like a kid.
Tonight when I get home, we should be at the final clip for hanging up ornaments. The in-laws went to visit BHK's grandparents pre-Christmas last weekend, so we deemed it better for them to rest up.
Tonight's a lunar eclipse - I won't be staying up to see it, but should be a nifty show!
Let's summarize the weekend a bit.
To play catch up with pictures posted earlier - Went with Amy & Wanda to Tuba Christmas @ Our Lady Star of the Sea church in St. Mary's and then had supper at Laughing Buddha - a lot of fun, and more interactive than I'd have thought. Sunday was otherwise pretty exhausting for both BHK and me.
Saturday - we spotted a snowman by post office, and put some sideways disco balls out on the ground around our house to emulate snowfall. About all we did was listen to holiday music, and then I played a lot of Sam & Max
Friday - Rested at the house... didn't do much of anything, really.
Finally, The Good Guys was canceled. Boo. I loved that show.
1 year ago - many pics - pano of the snow, me in a mad bomber hat, snow snow snow!
2 years ago - allergy shots, hung ornaments on tree
3 years ago - Tannenbaum cam up, coming movies, found doug wu on friendster, tentacled decor
4 years ago - acim / td interaction, newt and pye begin to blend
5 years ago - new chinese, florida snowman, day 44 of compusa drama, shadowrun, weird food, uncle joe's monkey-man army
6 years ago - I lift mel w/one hand, video hits, anagram santas workshop, john dee's crystal ball stolen, christmas meme, baby theft
7 years ago - considering an upgrade, Nigerian magic is weak vs bullets
8 years ago - Ft. Laud facts, Antarctic Life, Muslim Roundup, Bro at his worst finds a stray cat, make a supervillian desktop
9 years ago - Bodyboarding on lava, McMummies, xp patch
10 years ago - Restless, Special Olympics cheaters, wondering about where my parts were pre-me, palm reading
11 years ago - ave maria, newt's 5 trip to the vet - broke 4lbs
----------------
Now playing: Gas - Discovery

Oct. 4th, 2010 06:07 pma week from now, my long weekend in virginia will have come to an end... likely driving back home so I can get to work on time for tuesday. thanks, columbus... or erikson, or whoever first got here to settle in. trans-siberian asians or whatever proto-natives first roamed the banks to see boats coming to greet them.
today went pretty well, dear journal. regular length workday, a little flippin` pizza special and a lot of processes put in place.
mafia ii was fun, but I`m still really caught up in red dead redemption. zombie western coming this month has me quite enthused to continue, too.
brisk day today - rainy and in the 40s-50s.
some kids playing the fool on the other side of the train... not moldy scented today, but the conversations seem louder.
at chinatown now.. major switch from kids to hipsters.
not nearly so crowded today... but l`enfant station is still yet to come.
sleepy...perhaps a travel nap will keep me wakeful for dinner.

Mar. 17th, 2010 09:15 pmHappy St. Patty's, Dear Journal!
Spring is becoming more and more evident every day.
I forgot to mention a few things yesterday, given the photo/video nature of my limited entry. Father in-law toddled off to New York this week, so BHK and I are playing cruise directors to the mother in law. BHK stopped at Ch'NaCa for a pair of #6 needles, and I finally used store credit and a gift card to pick up God Of War III and Wii Sports Resort.
Chris took us out to supper at 3 brothers pizza a salad and Sicilian style- half meatball for BHK the more omnivorous, and half mixed veggies for Chris and myself. We planned on doing a little minigolf, but it closed before we could get around to playing. Instead, the gang promptly headed home, and Chris enjoyed beating me at the sword "chop duel" game. BHK excels at Basketball / Archery , and my games of preference are the air combat and wake boarding. Golf is pretty keen, too.
BHK and I got a little wanderlust this morning, and went to take a peek at Aardvark... I was pleasantly surprised to see they were still open, though they're moving at the end of the month, and stopping all video rentals - just comics & games now. Upside, we got a fistful of movies for $7 (~a buck each) -
A, we went to Play'n'trade and I swapped some old controllers, software and $20ish for Infamous, Drake's Fortune, and Command and Conquer: Red Alert 3 (Games are buy two, get one free - basically I bought one, and got one on credit, and got one free.) Not sure if I'd go to PNT unless I had loot to swap out, but they do price match game stop, and take best buy / game stop gift cards! I'm pretty good for a *LOOOONG* time for PS3 console games.
I was pleasantly surprised to see Shaun and his sister there - I don't thing we'd seen him since the polar bear swim... and we still have some of his stuff at the house. We made plans to play a little Ticket to Ride or Small World with them both sometime soon.
BHK got a little nibble to eat at the local fried chicken joint / Japanese grill - not as good as My Grill was up in Deale, but it was quite yummy and good-sized portions.
Came home, and picked up Chris - watched Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil while having a nibble of Chinese food. BHK had never seen the whole thing .. it makes me want to go back to Savannah (our Georgia journey pics are a bit out of whack, it seems there are a couple of FL pix in there, but most are properly tagged)
1 year ago - St. Patty ATW man pic, Adam & In-laws, out of whack, q&A
2 years ago - St. Pat's, dinner with family, ww info, goat robot - needs lasers
3 years ago - St. Pat's, theikea nightmare begins, newtcam returns to 24/7
4 years ago - st pats, snake son a plane, 4 things poll, lighter elements
5 years ago - Irish stuff, work, dog, hippie, writing
6 years ago - St Pats, Ordered CoH, email fixed, bro rant, work issues
7 years ago - St Pats, Purim, post #5490
8 years ago - many now-dead links, last sentence quiz, doctor, newt fetch
9 years ago - St Pats
10 years ago - Papal Apology

Mar. 5th, 2010 11:46 pmI was a little saddened to hear that there.com is closing on 3/9/2010. I had a lot of fun during my time at the site, and still have a nice friendship with some folks from there as a result. I wonder what ever happened to the rest of the gang, like Whims and Chias?
I'm pretty happy to see the theme live on in second life (I'm there *very* infrequently as scottobear bergson), and even more so in Playstation home (a bit more frequently on PSN as scottobear) .
Went to Walmart for some supplies, and I ended up grabbing Call of Juarez: Bound in Blood for $19... That's it for ps3 titles, until I play one of 'em to the end.
My current catalog for the PS3 is -
Aside from that, thing found today that disturbed me somehow - um, no. ms. easter bunny!
1 year ago - repairing internet connection on the EEE, hysteria, overtired, allergy
2 years ago - awesome taco salad,Doc Savage 75, Clinton still in it, more things I've done (5), airborne faked clinical trials

4 years ago - animated newtcam archive, bhk chat, bat-folk, Friday 5, tmbg
5 years ago - scottobear.com renew, trip to deerfield, free fonts, chat crash w/bhk,gp puts me on to spidey bible, what? WhaT?, H2GT2G, Chimp attack, giantsteps
6 years ago - blogspam treatment, work, serial adder, 7-eared kitty, clown sweater, Ephemera, visited bro
7 years ago - book meme, palm doodles, picture issues
8 years ago - mopey, bro helping out, Dick Hymen - Master of Jazz Piano, super tugboat, Newton's name, pet name poll, magic ingredients

My current catalog for the PS3 is -
- Lego Indiana Jones: Original Adventures - we love all games lego - the only one that hasn't totally enchanted us yet is lego batman for the wii, but that may change, too.
- Little Big Planet: Game of the year version - my current fave. easy on the eyes, tricky levels, and an online community that's fantastic.
- Uncharted 2 - my first game, and I really like it a lot - haven't played it too much, but it's a hoot thus far
- Call of Juarez: Bound in Blood - hard, but with infinite lives, I suspect I'll make it through eventually. good to have a western.
- The Darkness - pretty evil, but a solid game. I've been fortunate in my selection thus far.

Feb. 15th, 2010 04:10 pmHappy President's Day! Happy Belated Year of the Tiger (GO NEWT!) Happy Belated Valentines Day!
Recapping yesterday:
valentines breakfast at bob evans w/ nailles - it was tasty, but I think my order was the only one that wasn't goofed in some way.
Sean came over for a moment - brought us popcorn and a movie to watch!
The picture I took of my footprint in the snow looks weirdly inverted when viewed small.
BHK officially got her Vallies Day Gifts - a couple of handmade cards, a hat made of llama yarn (black, with knitted pictures of bunnies and weather on it. ), a llama pin made from fimo, and Style Savvy for the DS. If you want to visit her pretend-play fashion store, it's in Velvet City at the Chiffon Mall, Floor 16 - Green La . Buy lots of goodies , dear journal!
Speaking of goodies, I now have Little Big Planet (game of the year edition) for my ps3. Looking to game with me, dear journal? look me up as scottobear in the ps3 community.
I got new pair of Jeans for Valentines day from the in-laws - nicely timed, as one of my old pair of chinos tore about an hour before. Larry and Chris had Ice cream and cake for Chris's B'day, and we lounged about and watched some of the olympics.
So far today, all I've done is look for work, update my journal, and notice that my beard is just about all grown out, thanks to the recent snow.

hap-pye newt year 2010!
always remember -
Love is
is not rude,
it is not self seeking,
it is not easily angered,
it keeps no record of wrongs.
Love does not delight in evil
but rejoices in truth.
It always protects,
always trusts,
always hopes,
always perseveres.
-1 Corinthians 13:5&6

I’ve been cheating quite a bit – I prefer to post verbal over visual content. I’ll admit that I like to see pictures of Christmas, family and the kitties as much as the next guy, but to me, a photograph with just a small caption is strangely silent, especially coming from me.
What have I been up to lately, dear journal? Let’s see.
On Wednesday, I went to a job fair in Northern Virginia… I’m thankful that my background allows me to qualify for a good clearance ranking. DC area seems to prefer folks with an ability to do so.
Yesterday, BHK, Chris and I went to the Mexico restaurant for supper – aside from that, I went to physical therapy and rested in bed with the boys. Tonight we’re scheduled to visit the Manspergers for some baked Ziti and good conversation – Sean has been very helpful, in helping me to seek out opportunities in this region.
I’m looking forward to a snowy day tomorrow. Supposed to be 12-20 inches in my neck of the woods!
Amy is coming to visit from the 26th to the 30th! Right on!
I’m digging the new statistics page for livejournal. Makes it easier to track hits than by hiding little sensors in each post, certainly. The “my guests” feature is especially engrossing – I never know so many flyby’s happened to old entries!
I’m glad the tv show lost is in it’s final season. I don’t hate the show… but I am tired of the hype. I watched the first season or so, and then stopped, when it occurred to me that they’d keep making shows as long as advertisers would pay to keep ‘em on the air, and not because there’s a solid plot going from beginning to end. I feel the same about Heroes, sadly. If there had been something more engaging than “what is the answer” and one I’d never get, I’d probably dig both of those shows.
Also, I think Blade should’ve been in Twilight, not Buffy.
New Years, I’m planning on doing the Polar bear plunge, unless my health isn’t into it. Current holiday loot breakdown – all of it wonderful!
1 year ago – Dexter season 1, gifts from Kev, and the folks in Florida, tired but getting better,
2 years ago - started my minicity - (still doing ok, though neglected), icy footing, f'ing programming, tell me meme, my snazzy new custom sneakers
3 years ago - Dinner with C&D, Big Brain, Xmas card, silly holiday lj toys
4 years ago - Xmas card, condo Xmas party, calm a llama down
5 years ago - salty seas, Christmas toy, year in review, Celebrex, anime fans, con folk
6 years ago - trade invites for play $$, dreams
7 years ago - How to attain old age, got my epidural
8 years ago - Crime & Punishment, heterodox, evil news, HP question, pooter poop, bagpipe, egoboo, giant bee
9 years ago - met Tarpo (I still have the holiday mix cd) and Isis, LJ sea Chantey, AOK-ing, Christmas Blues
10 years ago – heat miser / snow miser song.
What have I been up to lately, dear journal? Let’s see.
On Wednesday, I went to a job fair in Northern Virginia… I’m thankful that my background allows me to qualify for a good clearance ranking. DC area seems to prefer folks with an ability to do so.
Yesterday, BHK, Chris and I went to the Mexico restaurant for supper – aside from that, I went to physical therapy and rested in bed with the boys. Tonight we’re scheduled to visit the Manspergers for some baked Ziti and good conversation – Sean has been very helpful, in helping me to seek out opportunities in this region.

9999 – November 24, 2009
Nov. 24th, 2009 11:18 pmDave Nelson, Adam, Anna and the in-laws came over for a visit last night and some nom noms on the day before the day before the big day of gluttony-type behavior.
We played a boatload of jungle speed and nibbled on pigs in blankets, and those cream cheese wraps that BHK has continued to develop into super tasty treats.
Much fun was had by all – I prefer playing the dorky warthog more than the lion or rhino, now. Adam is almost always monkey (Unless BHK had it), while Anna was Tigress, and Dave was Hippo. We need to get more controllers so we can play more than 4 at a time! fortunately, the game allows 2 per controller/nun chuck.
Adam and Anna are sleeping over – everyone else is close enough to home to get kicked out come snoozeville.
Safe Cooking tips for the hoidays
