Top shot, pan from Toussaint to congregation STORYLINE US Coast Guard officials loaded 50 earthquake survivors on a plane bound for Santo Domingo on Sunday, while Haitians in the quake-devastated capital of Port-au-Prince attended Sunday Mass in a partially collapsed cathedral. From the Dominican capital, the evacuees were expected to travel on to other destinations. Coast Guard Lieutenant Kevan Hanson the evacuees are being ferried to Santo Domingo to get them in "a better condition." "The medical treatment will be better there. The living conditions will be better. Just to get them out of here," he said. Many of the evacuees were children. Colleen Hedglin was escorting children to safety. She described the evacuation as "a gift." But said she would have to return. "We're leaving lots of good friends behind. I'm going to come back." As the main delivery point for aid, the airport was clogged with planes and personnel. Workers unload planes that make it in, while helicopters and other planes land and takeoff. The airport is a choke point for supplies, with the international effort straining its capacity. The aid was slowly reaching survivors as rescue crews battled against time to pull out a shrinking number of people still alive under the ruins. Among the ruins of Port-au-Prince's Roman Catholic cathedral, Haitians were giving thanks for simply being alive at Sunday Mass. Preaching to a small crowd of survivors inside the cathedral's remaining walls after Tuesday's magnitude-7.0 earthquake, Father Marie-Eric Toussaint said he advisor his congregation "live with faith because it is a difficult situation to live through, but they have to trust God." Congregants responded with particular fervour to the priest's invocation "The Lord Be With You," responding with "And also with you. May the Lord be with All of us." As Catholic and Protestant worshippers across the city met for their first Sunday services since the magnitude-7.0 quake, many Haitians were still waiting for food and water and some took vengeance against looters. Haitians seemed increasingly frustrated by a seemingly invisible government and rescue workers were exasperated by the struggle to get aid through the small, damaged and clogged airport run by US military controllers, and to get it from the airport into town. Doctors Without Borders said Sunday that a cargo plane carrying a field hospital was denied permission to land at the airport and had to be rerouted through the Dominican Republic - creating a 24-hour delay in setting up a crucial field hospital. Nobody knows how many died in Tuesday's quake. Haiti's government alone has already recovered 20-thousand bodies - not counting those recovered by independent agencies or relatives themselves, Prime Minister Jean-Max Bellerive told The Associated Press. The Pan American Health Organisation now says 50-thousand to 100-thousand people perished in the quake. Bellerive said 100-thousand would "seem to be the minimum." UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-Moon called the quake "one of the most serious crises in decades." Yet President Rene Preval has made no broadcast address to his nation, nor has he been seen at any disaster site. Instead he has met Cabinet ministers and foreign visitors at a police station that serves as his base following the collapse of the National Palace.

Wide of elderly people gathered under tree STORYLINE: There was no food, water or medicine on Sunday for the 85 surviving residents of the Port-au-Prince Municipal Nursing Home, just a mile (1 1/2 kilometres) from the airport where a massive international aid effort was taking shape. One man has already died, and administrator Jean Emmanuel said more would follow soon unless water and food arrive immediately. The dead man was Joseph Julien, a 70-year-old diabetic who was pulled from the partially collapsed building and passed away on Thursday for lack of food. On Sunday his body was still laying on a mattress close to those who were still alive. With six residents killed in the quake, the institution now has 25 men and 60 women camped outside their former home. Only some have a mattress in the dirt to lie on. One resident said some of them had pooled their money to buy three packets of pasta, which the dozens of pensioners shared on Thursday, their last meal. Since there was no drinking water, some didn't touch the noodles because they were cooked in gutter water. Many residents were wearing diapers that hadn't been changed since the quake. The diapers were beginning to attract rats. Nobody knows how many died in Tuesday's quake in Haiti. Haiti's government alone has already recovered 20-thousand bodies - not counting those recovered by independent agencies or relatives themselves, Prime Minister Jean-Max Bellerive told The Associated Press. The Pan American Health Organisation now says 50-thousand to 100-thousand people perished in the quake. Bellerive said 100-thousand would "seem to be the minimum."

And I think we ought to care from a humanitarian perspective and I also think from a strategic perspective because it makes sense to have a stable democracy in our neighbourhood." 15. Two shot of Clinton and Bush STORYLINE: US officials said Sunday that relief efforts were focussed firmly on getting food, water and medical supplies to victims and survivors simultaneously in the aftermath of Haiti's devastating magnitude 7 earthquake. Speaking on ABC's "This Week" Sunday show, Rajiv Shah, who leads the US Agency for International Development, said President Obama had called on his agency and the military to work in parallel to gets efforts mobilised aggressively and that initial efforts were also focused on trying to find survivors in the rubble. Lieutenant General Ken Keen of the US Southern Command, speaking from Haiti, called the situation a "a disaster of epic proportions with tremendous logistical challenges." He told viewers that while more infrastructure was arriving in to the country, security had become a great concern. "As you've said, we've had incidents of violence that impede our ability to support the government of Haiti and answer the challenges that this country faces", he said. Officials believe that 100-thousand or more people died in the quake that struck the impoverished country on Tuesday. Former Presidents George W. Bush and Bill Clinton both refuted any attempt to politicise the government's response to the Haiti earthquake. Bush said that he doesn't know what critics are talking about when they claim Obama is trying to score political points with a broad response to Haiti's woes. The most vocal critic has been conservative radio talk show host Rush Limbaugh who urged people not to donate and said he wouldn't trust that money donated to Haiti through the White House Web site would go to the relief efforts. He said people contribute enough by paying income taxes. Clinton stressed that the infrastructure of Haiti had been completely destroyed and key government buildings had collapsed. He added that once the search and rescue efforts was wound down, relief efforts would become more coordinated and that the situation would then improve over the next few days. With the outpouring of donations, US officials have been urging Americans to make sure their contributions flowed to legitimate organisations. Former President George W. Bush, speaking of Haiti's despair, said Americans should care about what happens for humanitarian and national security reasons. The Haitian government meanwhile has set up 14 distribution points for food and other supplies, while US Army helicopters are scouting locations for more. Aid groups have opened five emergency health centres since the quake occurred and the UN says it's already feeding 40-thousand affected by the disaster.

To see if there are people on the list who are on it by mistake and should be removed or in fact are dead." 8. Close of writing on notepad 9. Mid of Holbrooke leaving conference room STORYLINE US Special Envoy for Afghanistan and Pakistan, Richard Holbrooke told reporters in Kabul on Sunday that foreign troops would eventually pull out of Afghanistan but not in a way that suggested abandoning their mission. Holbrooke was speaking on his return from a trip to the Swat valley on the border between Afghanistan and Pakistan. It was his sixth visit to Afghanistan in the past 12 months. He told reporters that "the people who demand that the foreign troops leave Afghanistan before they talk about peace are actually asking for surrender." He also said that he supports a proposal to lure fighters with no strong allegiance to militants away from the insurgency and reintegrate them into Afghan society. "Let us not be naive about this. In the long run, foreign troops will leave Afghanistan. We don't want to occupy Afghanistan, we are here to help you," he explained. He also said he believed the support base for Taliban leader Mullah Mohammed Omar and for al-Qaida was limited and based on deception and what he called "false information." Holbrooke, who had a heated meeting last year with Afghan President Hamid Karzai over the fraud-stained Afghan presidential election, spoke at town hall-style event in the Afghan capital of Kabul where about 40 academics, videographers, representatives from non-governmental organisations, radio broadcasters and others were invited to ask Holbrooke questions. Their inquiries ranged from questions about reintegration and corruption to US economic assistance and the Pakistani intelligence service's involvement in violence in the region - a question Holbrooke declined to answer. Holbrooke also said he talked with Karzai on Sunday about a plan the government is crafting to offer jobs, vocational training and other economic incentives to tens of thousands of Taliban foot soldiers willing to switch sides after eight years of war. Asked if he would favour removing individuals, such as Mullah Omar or Afghan warlord Gulbuddin Hekmatyar, from a United Nations sanctions list, Holbrooke said he could not "imagine what would justify such an action at this time, and I don't know anyone who has suggested that." However he said that "would be all in favour of looking at the list on a case by case basis. To see if there are people on the list who are on it by mistake and should be removed or in fact are dead." The UN Security Council imposed sanctions against the Taliban in November 1999 for refusing to send Osama bin Laden to stand trial on "terrorism" charges in connection with two 1998 US embassy bombings in Africa. The sanctions - a travel ban, arms embargo and assets freeze - were later extended to al-Qaida. In July 2005, the council extended the sanctions again to cover affiliates and splinter groups of al-Qaida and the Taliban. But questions have been raised about the fairness of the list and the rights of those subject to punitive measures to argue their case for being removed. Last month, the council approved new measures to make sure that UN sanctions target the right people, companies and organisations for links to al-Qaida and the Taliban. The sanctions committee is reviewing all 488 individuals and entities on the list.

Various of dead bodies in street following gas attack ++GRAPHIC++ STORYLINE Saddam Hussein's cousin Ali Hassan al-Majid, also known as "Chemical Ali", was convicted on Sunday of crimes against humanity and received a death sentence for his involvement in the 1988 poison gas attack on Halabja. Families of some of the victims in the Baghdad court cheered when the guilty verdict against al-Majid was handed down in a trial over one of the worst poisonous gas attacks against civilians. The attack left 5,600 people dead. Al-Majid has already received previous death sentences for atrocities committed during Saddam's rule, particularly in the government's suppression of the Kurds in the late 1980s. One Baghdad resident on Sunday welcomed the court's ruling, while another described the sentence as "unfair," saying al-Majid was simply following orders. Other officials in Saddam's regime received jail terms for their roles in the attack on Halabja, a Kurdish town near the Iranian border. Former Defence Minister Sultan Hashim al-Taie faces 15 years in prison, as does Iraq's former director of military intelligence, Sabir Azizi al-Douri. Farhan Mutlaq al-Jubouri, the former head of military intelligence's eastern regional office, was sentenced to 10 years. The jail terms were handed down following guilty verdicts on charges that included crimes against humanity.

(Question: If they invited you on a friendly basis) "No idea. Under these circumstances I think it would be unlikely. The security of Bin Laden seems not to be in any danger but mine does." 12. Llamazares walks away from cameras STORYLINE A Spanish lawmaker said he was horrified to learn that the FBI (US Federal Bureau of Investigation) used an online photograph of him to create an image showing what al-Qaida leader, Osama bin Laden might look like today. The digitally enhanced image of bin Laden - made to show what he would look like today as an older man - reportedly used Spanish lawmaker Gaspar Llamazares' photo and appeared on a wanted poster updating the US government's 1998 photo of the al-Qaida leader. FBI spokesman Ken Hoffman acknowledged to the Spanish newspaper El Mundo that the agency used a picture of Llamazares taken from Google Images. In a statement on Saturday, the agency would say only that it was aware of similarities between their age-progressed image and that of an existing photograph of a Spanish public official. The wanted poster appeared on the State Department website rewardsforjustice.net, listing a reward of up to 25 (m) million US dollars. The FBI said the photo of bin Laden would be removed from the website. Llamazares, former leader of the United Left party, was elected to Spain's parliament in 2000. The photograph of him reportedly used to make the wanted poster originally appeared on posters for his 2004 general-election campaign. He told reporters in Madrid on Saturday that he found the whole thing hard to believe at first. "In the first instance I didn't believe it. I thought it was a joke. But it was no longer the 28th December (Saint's Day - when typically people in Spain play jokes on each other) and later, when I realised it was not a joke and that it was serious, I took it seriously and decided to act seriously," he explained. Llamazares said he planned to ask the US government for an explanation and said he reserved the right to take legal action. He also said he was concerned to see the government resorting to what he called sloppy techniques, especially in the light of recent security alerts such as the attempted Christmas Day bombing of a Detroit-bound airplane. Bin Laden, who is wanted in the September 11, 2001 attacks on New York and Washington DC and the 1998 US embassy bombings in Tanzania and Kenya, is believed to be hiding in the lawless Pakistan frontier bordering Afghanistan. His exact whereabouts have been unknown since late 2001, when he and some bodyguards slipped out of the Tora Bora mountains after evading air-strikes, special forces and Afghan militias.

Woman casting vote STORYLINE Chile's presidential election on Sunday could come down to a nerve-racking, vote-by-vote count after a late surge by former President Eduardo Frei made his race against billionaire Sebastian Pinera too close to predict. Pinera led every poll until Frei and outgoing President Michelle Bachelet repeatedly invoked the legacy of Augusto Pinochet's dictatorship, raising fears of a retreat on human rights if the centre-right Pinera gains power. The theme shook up the well-organised campaign of Harvard-trained economist Pinera, which had focused on economic growth, jobs and change in a country led by a coalition of centre-left politicians for 20 years. Pinera said the government was spreading lies to frighten voters. Flanked by his sons Cristobal and Sebastian, Pinera cast his ballot in the capital Santiago, hugging his wife, Cecilia Morel, as he left the polling station. "Tonight we are going to celebrate a big triumph but we are going to celebrate it as democrats do, the men of good will, with joy and hope but also with unity. The triumph is the triumph of democracy," Pinera said. Bachelet also voted in Santiago, telling reporters that the election was "very competitive." Frei, meanwhile, cast his ballot at a school in the city of La Union, nearly 900 kilometres (559 miles) south of Santiago. With Frei and Pinera agreeing on most government policies - a reflection of the remarkable economic, social and political success that has given Bachelet nearly 80 percent approval ratings as she ends her five-year term - human rights became the wild card. Bachelet, herself a torture victim, steadfastly supported judicial efforts to resolve crimes against humanity during the 1973-1990 dictatorship, and more than 700 former military and security officials have been put on trial. But efforts to resolve dictatorship-era rights abuses remain a painful topic around Latin America, and aggressive moves are not always popular. Voters in Uruguay rejected an initiative to overturn that country's amnesty laws last year, even as they elected a former rebel as president. Amnesties also remain in force in Brazil, and while Argentina overturned its amnesty laws, rights trials there have become highly politicised. The issue came to the forefront of Chile's presidential campaign last month when a judge concluded that Frei's father, a Pinochet critic, had been secretly poisoned to death. Bachelet raised it again by inaugurating Chile's Museum of Memory less than a week before the vote. And Frei pressed it hard in Wednesday's televised debate, forcing Pinera to acknowledge that "part of my sector committed errors" during the dictatorship by denying human rights violations even as thousands of Pinochet's opponents were tortured or killed. The ruling coalition "may have committed errors, but not horrors," Frei countered, noting that the death of his father would never have been investigated had the amnesty proposal Pinera made as a senator been approved. The 60-year-old Pinera said no former Pinochet Cabinet members would serve in his Cabinet, but angry supporters quickly forced him to take back the promise. The key question is whether fears of a retreat on rights cases run deep enough to persuade voters who stayed home during last month's first-round election to show up on Sunday. Most of those who abstained are leftists, and if enough of them vote this time, Pinera would lose his edge. Pinera's 15-point lead in December dropped to 1.8 percent, according to a nationwide poll published on Wednesday by the independent firm Market Opinion Research International, which showed him leading by 50.9 percent to 49.1 percent for Frei. But the 3 percentage point error margin made the race anybody's guess. Both sides ordered party representatives to scrutinise Sunday's vote count, and to challenge questionable paper ballots. Pinera had lawyers staff a hotline for challenges, and Frei's campaign was focusing its watchdog efforts on precincts where Pinera had a first-round advantage. Pinera put his PhD in economics to use popularising credit cards in Chile, growing a fortune that now includes a large share of Chile's main airline, a leading television channel and the country's most popular soccer team. He said the government has "run out of gas," and that he would create a (m) million jobs and double the Chile's median income of 12-thousand US dollars a year. Frei's 1995-2000 term was rather unremarkable and many leftists preferred the more dynamic Marco Enriquez-Ominami, who came in third in the first round and tepidly endorsed Frei last week, saying the right should be kept from the presidency. Chile's population is nearly 17 (m) million, but only 8.3 (m) million are registered to vote, and fewer than 760-thousand new voters have been added in the last 21 years under a system that makes voting mandatory for life for those who register. Frei has promised to make a priority of Enriquez-Ominami's proposal to make registration automatic and voting optional.

Mid of exit poll announcement STORYLINE Disillusioned Ukrainian voters appear to have given archenemy of the 2004 Orange Revolution a first-place finish in the initial round of presidential voting on Sunday, setting up a showdown with the heroine of the Orange movement, an exit poll showed. Early predictions suggest the pro-Russian opposition leader Viktor Yanukovych will finish first in the hard-fought contest and Prime Minister Yulia Tymoshenko will finish second, clearing the path for a runoff between the pair sometime next month. The two candidates stood on opposite sides of the barricades during the peaceful mass demonstrations that kicked out a reputedly corrupt government in 2004, when Yanukovych had the backing of the Kremlin and Orange forces denounced Russian interference. Both candidates now say they will abandon efforts to join NATO and pledge to repair ties to Russia, the region's dominant power. Among those casting their vote in the capital Kiev on Sunday was monk Vladimir Kotsaba who said he hoped the election would bring a more positive future to the country. "We hope that God will send that well-deserved person who will be able to lead our country out from that difficult condition that we have. For this we pray our God," he said. President Viktor Yushchenko, elected in 2004 with 52 per cent of the vote, appeared at a polling station in Kiev although exit polls are predicting he'll take just six percent of the vote. The National Exit Poll is by a consortium of groups that conduct up to 13-thousand interviews outside 240 polling places and has a margin of error of 2.5 percentage points. Yushchenko was hospitalised with a massive dose of the chemical dioxin during the 2004 race, and his poison-scarred face became a symbol of defiance to tyranny for (m) millions around the world. Five years later, he is widely seen as an ineffective leader for failing to curb corruption and modernise Ukraine's economy. In Donetsk and in the Black Sea harbour city of Sevastopol, a southern Ukrainian city on the Crimea peninsula, many voters cast their ballots yet kept expectations low. One recent poll showed a majority of voters were concerned the election could be rigged. A suspicious Yuschenko reacted angrily to the arrival of electoral observers from neighbouring Georgia - at least 152 to the eastern city of Donetsk - on Saturday. "I regret that Georgia, and our beloved Georgian people are being used for manipulations in Ukraine, and it once more proves who in reality our political leaders are and in which direction they are heading," he said. Foes of Prime Minister Yulia Tymoshenko released a tape this week of a purported conversation between her and Georgian President Mikhail Saakashvili, in which he supposedly said he was sending 2,000 "battle-ready" observers to monitor the race. In a December opinion poll, only 34 per cent of Ukrainians said that they expected the election to be fair overall, while 57 per cent said the results could be manipulated or were certain to be stolen. As part of an international effort to bolster confidence in the election, foreign observers have fanned out across Ukraine to monitor voting in this country of 46 (m) million people with 36.6 (m) million registered voters. A spokesman for the Organisation for Security and Cooperation in Europe, said on Saturday that about 600 OSCE election monitors are in place, in addition to thousands of other foreign observers.
