I have to say I came a bit late to learning about falafel, but when I did I happened to find the best place in the city to get it and that is the Sunrise Deli. They specialize in Middle-Eastern cuisine which means it could be based on just about any country there so expect to see a few variations [definitely not Egyptian based as those falafel are made with fava beans]. Opening in 1984 at 2115 Irving Street this location has expanded to serve a total of three locations in San Francisco and one in Berkeley.I have to say I came a bit late to learning about falafel, but when I did I happened... more

During the Armenian Genocide from 1915 to 1923, more than 1.5 million Christian Armenians were barbarically massacred by the Ottoman Empire during the first ethnic-cleansing campaign of the 20th century. Modern day Turkey continues to deny its crimes, and even Turkey's most renowned novelist, Orhan Pamuk, and other leading Turkish writers, journalists and historians are being tried by Turkish courts for talking and writing about the massacres of the Armenians.
Broadcast journalist Paul Chaderjian produced this report about the largest Genocide commemoration in the Republic of Armenia, and what Armenians worldwide are doing to prevent more holocausts and genocides like the one taking place now in the Sudan.

A Moscow city court has pronounced seven members of a skinhead gang guilty of 20 racially motivated murders and 12 counts of attempted murder.
The jury had to answer 280 questions in their deliberations on coming to a verdict.
Five of those on trial admitted their guilt, while Ryno himself admitted to participating in 37 murders.
The jurors found Ryno and Skachevsky undeserving of lenience. The jury recommended the remaining five be given the minimum punishement in accordance with the crime.
Most of them were underage, with most members ranging in age from 15 and 22 at the time of the crime.
Investigators say they targeted people of non-Slavic appearance, mostly from Central Asia and the Caucasus.
The gang beat and often killed their victims, filming the attacks on mobile phones and posting the video on the internet.
The two leaders of the group Artur Ryno and Pavel Skachevsky were arrested last year in connection with the murder of an Armenian businessman Karen Abramyan. Abramyan, 46, was stabbed 20 times in Moscow and later died in the hospital.
Ryno was reported to be a student at an icon painting school and told investigators that he began his murder spree on 21 August, 2006.
Although the proceedings were closed to the public, Interfax reported that both fully admitted carrying out the murders.A Moscow city court has pronounced seven members of a skinhead gang guilty of 20... more
