She quickly started breathing on her own and was eventually transported to Primary Children's Medical Center. Kano says hearing her breathe was one of the best sounds he's ever heard. He says he's no hero and feels blessed to have been in the right place at the right time to help.

POPSKennewick woman, 78, meets family for first time She doesn't think her parents ever planned to tell her she was adopted, but it came out when her mother was going through the process of becoming a U.S. citizen. Howell was about 11 years old at the time. Both her parents died a few years later, when she was a teenager. Howell didn't know anything about her birth mother, not even the woman's name. She tried over the years to find out more but came up empty until recently when a relative used her birth name in an internet search. Thousands of miles away in Canada, a great nephew of Marian North Brown -- Howell's birth mother -- was doing an online search of his own. He knew Brown had given a child up for adoption and wanted to see if he could track down the long-lost relative. The searchers happened on each other. In no time, Howell was on the phone with Schulties, 59, of Saskatchewan, one of her seven younger half-brothers and sisters.

His Holiness left a mark on the two men welcoming him to town. Mayor Wharton said, “This visit lets the world know that Dr. King ’s beliefs still live on are still viable and I think it’s just so fitting that his holiness has seen fit to visit our great city.”

POPSAl Qaeda Takes Credit for Last Week's Baghdad Bombings Since the attack, Maliki has ordered the concrete blast walls to be put back up around sensitive sites, and the military has arrested 11 officers for negligence or aiding in the attack. The Iraqi government has accused both al Qaeda in Iraq and former Ba'athists operating from Syria of conducting the attack. On Aug. 23, state-run television aired the confession of a senior member of the Ba'ath party who is accused of masterminding the attacks. The suspect claimed he was a former policeman in Miqdadiyah in eastern Diyala province, a region that has served as a bastion for al Qaeda in Iraq. He said the attackers paid $10,000 in bribes to ensure that their trucks would pass through checkpoints into Baghdad. The attack was ordered by a senior Ba'ath official based in Syria. Today, the Iraqi government asked Syria to turn over senior Ba'athists Sattam Farhan and Mohammad Younis al Ahmed for their involvement in last week's bombings.

POPSRobert Novak, Giant of Journalism RIP Kenneth Tomlinson at Human Events, which ran the Evans-Novak Report until it was ended last year, confirms that the conservative reporter Robert Novak has died after a year-long battle with cancer. Tim Carney, Novak’s last collaborator on the report, has a remembrance up. Novak would often tell aspiring journalists to pick a different field if their goal was to change the world. But, by simply aiming to inform and to do his job as well he could, Novak changed the lives of his readers and those of us blessed to work with him. Update: Lynn Sweet confirms it: “He was someone who loved being a journalist, love journalism and loved his country and loved his family,” Novak’s wife, Geraldine, told the Sun-Times on Tuesday.
