The United States is concerned that Pakistan may have given China access to the helicopter that crashed in the U.S. raid on Osama bin Laden's compound, a U.S. official said Monday.

"We have reason to suspect China was given access but we cannot confirm it definitively," said a U.S. official who is not authorized to discuss intelligence matters publicly. "We have strong suspicions."
Why are there so many officials in high places in the US divulging matters to the media which they aren't allowed to, and shouldn't? It's as if you don't even need wikileaks. Every week I see another "an official who does not want to be named is saying X about secret X with no authorization to talk on the matter publicly"

A lot of the time, those "leaks" are purposeful. Soft diplomacy, if you will.

But Desheplo and his allies were outnumbered by some 70 members of the Laborers International Union of North America who packed the hearing wearing T-shirts that read, "Port Authority = jobs," a reference to the 167,000 jobs the agency says are dependent on $33 billion worth of projects that the hikes will help pay for. As they marched out after the hearing, the laborers chanted, "What do we want? Jobs! When do we want them? Now!"

The hearings follow an announcement by the Port Authority on Aug. 5 proposing to raise tolls by $4 for E-ZPass users and $7 for cash payers as early as next month, followed by an additional $2 hike in 2014, when peak-hour totals would be $14 with E-ZPass and $17 with cash.

Trucks also face a steep hike, with the off-peak E-ZPass toll for a 5-axle tractor trailer rising to $65 from $35. PATH fares would go up $1 each way, to $2.75, with monthly passes rising to $89 from $54.
Huge toll hikes are huge. Considering how hard LIUNA is pushing this I'm very skeptical of how much of it is needed. The last group of people I would trust when it comes to this sort of thing is unionized labor.

Fresh links between murdered investigator and NOTW

Daniel Morgan was found with an axe in his head. His partner, used by NOTW executives, was a suspect in the killing

Evidence gathered in a police investigation into Mr Rees's activities is now the subject of a separate inquiry by the Met's phone-hacking team. Last night Tom Watson, the MP who has investigated the phone-hacking scandal at length, called for the murder to be re-examined as part of the Leveson hacking inquiry.

Mr Morgan, until his death, worked for Southern Investigations alongside Mr Rees, the private investigator whose company has been linked to alleged email hacking. Mr Rees has stated he did not commission or in any way incite or procure anyone "to hack" any computer.

Mr Rees, along with four other men, was accused in 2008 of murdering Mr Morgan but was acquitted in March of this year. The case collapsed following a legal argument that lasted two years and after three supergrass witnesses had been deemed to be unreliable.

Mr Watson said: "Because we now know that Jonathan Rees had a very close relationship with Alex Marunchak, because we now know about the News of the World and their use of private investigators for covert surveillance and phone hacking, this is all relevant information and evidence that should be used as part of the public inquiry. I think the Leveson inquiry should examine the Daniel Morgan murder and I'm going to write to the PM to ask him to make sure that happens."

I think the Leveson inquiry should examine the Daniel Morgan murder and I'm going to write to the PM to ask him to make sure that happens."

A murdered private investigator said he was taking a story exposing police corruption, for which he was promised a payment of GBP40,000, to the News of the World a week before he died, it was claimed last night.

The BBC said it had evidence that Daniel Morgan had said he was to be given the money by Alex Marunchak, the NOTW's former crime editor. Mr Marunchak said last night he had never met Mr Morgan, who was found with an axe in his head in the car park of a south London pub in March 1987.

The revelation is significant because Mr Morgan's business partner, Jonathan Rees, is at the centre of allegations that he supplied stories to the NOTW and other newspapers using sources including corrupt police officers. Mr Rees stood trial for Mr Morgan's murder but was acquitted when the trial collapsed.
The Met and NOTW are up to their necks in this. The Met, and other Forces, have been covering this and other serious crime up for decades.

They need to sell off their share of the 'Freedom Tower'. That's where the money is going, not into the bridges and tunnels. Ten years, and that thing is still a hole in the ground. I wonder how many billions of dollars they've squandered from all the delays.

The real scandal here is police officers taking huge bribes to hand out confidential information and protect favoured criminals from prosecution.
Handing out private cell phone numbers and helping criminals and journalists hack them being just one aspect of the corruption.
Before that they were helping crims intercept actual calls, before that they were just helping crims.

Also anyone who is surprised to find out Murdoch has been a big fat crook since 1987 at the latest hasn't been paying attention.
