Egyptian presidential<br />
election to rid nation of<br />
decades of dictatorship<br />
CAIRO (AP) — Determined to end<br />
decades of authoritarian rule, millions of<br />
Egyptians waited patiently in long lines<br />
outside polling stations across the nation<br />
on Wednesday to freely choose their first<br />
president since last year’s ouster of longtime<br />
ruler and close U.S. ally Hosni Mubarak.<br />
“I can die in a matter of months, so I<br />
came for my children, so they can live,” a<br />
tearful Medhat Ibrahim, 58, who suffers<br />
from cancer, said as he waited to vote in a<br />
poor district south of Cairo. “We want to<br />
live better, like human beings.”<br />
Thirteen candidates, who include<br />
Islamists, liberals and Mubarak regime figures,<br />
are contesting the election. No outright<br />
winner is expected to emerge from the twoday<br />
vote starting Wednesday. So, a runoff<br />
between the two top finishers will be held<br />
June 16-17. The winner will be announced<br />
on June 21.<br />
“It’s a miracle,” said Selwa Abdel-Malik,<br />
a 60-year-old Christian from the Mediterranean<br />
port city of Alexandria as she was<br />
about to vote. “And it’s a beautiful feeling<br />
too.”<br />
For most of his 29-year rule, Mubarak —<br />
like his predecessors — ran unopposed in<br />
yes-or-no referendums. Rampant fraud guaranteed<br />
ruling party victories in parliamentary<br />
elections. Even when, in 2005, Mubarak<br />
let challengers oppose him in elections, he<br />
ended up not only trouncing his liberal rival<br />
but jailing him.<br />
Did Morgan Stanley<br />
selectively inform clients<br />
ahead of Facebook IPO?<br />
WASHINGTON (AP) — Regulators are<br />
examining whether Morgan Stanley, the<br />
investment bank that shepherded Facebook<br />
through its highly publicized stock offering<br />
last week, selectively informed clients of an<br />
analyst’s negative report about the company<br />
before the stock started trading.<br />
Rick Ketchum, the head of the Financial<br />
Industry Regulatory Authority, the selfpolicing<br />
body for the securities industry,<br />
said Tuesday that the question is “a matter<br />
of regulatory concern” for his organization<br />
and the Securities and Exchange Commission.<br />
The top securities regulator for Massachusetts,<br />
William Galvin, said he had subpoenaed<br />
Morgan Stanley. Galvin said his<br />
office is investigating whether Morgan Stanley<br />
divulged to only some clients that one of<br />
its analysts had cut his revenue estimates for<br />
Facebook before the stock hit the market on<br />
Friday.<br />

The bank said late Tuesday that it “followed<br />
the same procedures for the Facebook<br />
offering that it follows for all IPOs,”<br />
referring to initial public offerings of stock.<br />
It said that its procedures complied with<br />
regulations.<br />
The questions about the role played by<br />
Morgan Stanley, the lead underwriter for the<br />
deal, add to the confusion surrounding Facebook’s<br />
IPO. In the most hotly anticipated<br />
stock debut in years, the offering raised $16<br />
billion for the social networking company,<br />
valuing it at $104 billion.<br />
After deal on probes, Iran<br />
seeks concessions from<br />
world powers in talks<br />
BAGHDAD (AP) — Iran is demanding<br />
that world powers set specific timetables<br />
and goals in talks Wednesday over Tehran’s<br />
nuclear program, a senior Iranian government<br />
official said before a second round of<br />
negotiations.<br />
The push for milestones by Iran reflects<br />
apparent efforts to force concessions from<br />
the West on sanctions in exchange for gradually<br />
addressing international concerns over<br />
the Islamic Republic’s nuclear ambitions.<br />
Tehran hopes to leave Baghdad with a<br />
clear framework for future talks and potential<br />
dealmaking, the official said. Western<br />
diplomats have voiced similar concerns,<br />
although few believe the discussions in<br />
Baghdad will yield breakthroughs in the<br />
showdowns over Iran’s nuclear program.<br />
The U.S. and allies fear Iran could use its<br />
nuclear expertise to build atomic weapons.<br />
Iran claims it only seeks nuclear reactors for<br />
energy and research.<br />
Senator: Secret Service<br />
prostitute scandal broader<br />
than originally believed<br />
WASHINGTON (AP) — Several small<br />
groups of Secret Service employees separately<br />
visited clubs, bars and brothels in<br />
Colombia prior to a visit by President<br />
Barack Obama last month and engaged in<br />
reckless, “morally repugnant” behavior, Sen.<br />
Susan Collins says.<br />
She says the employees’ actions during<br />
the stunning prostitution scandal could have<br />
provided a foreign intelligence service, drug<br />
cartels or other criminals with opportunities<br />
for blackmail or coercion that could have<br />
threatened the president’s safety.<br />
In remarks prepared for the first congressional<br />
hearing on the matter Wednesday,<br />
Collins, R-Maine, also challenged early<br />
assurances that the scandal in Colombia<br />
appeared to be an isolated incident.<br />

Hand sanitizers at the 4-H Fair<br />
The Rockcreek Rollers<br />
4-H Club was recently<br />
awarded a $482 Youth As<br />
Resources grant to complete<br />
a community service project,<br />
the installation of antibacterial<br />
dispensers at the 4-H<br />
Park. The group, under the<br />
direction of Jodie Bales, will<br />
use the grant to purchase the<br />
supplies to build sanitation<br />
stations throughout the fairgrounds.<br />
Signs will also be<br />
put up, directing individuals<br />
to the stations during the fair<br />
and other 4-H Association<br />
events.<br />
Brent Bales is the youth<br />
project leader.<br />
The stations will be distributed<br />
around the animal<br />
barns and food booths. The<br />
group hopes to bring awareness<br />
to and improve cleanliness<br />
and personal hygiene<br />
for both 4-H participants<br />
and fairgoers.<br />
