...their unit had suffered, and fueled by several bottles of Iraqi whisky, they embarked upon a premeditated crime of gruesome barbarity. Donning black long-underwear outfits as disguises, even though it was the middle of the day, they traveled a few hundred meters to an isolated farmhouse where they gang-raped Abeer Qassim Hamza al-Janabi, a 14-year-old Iraqi girl, and murdered her, her parents and her 6-year-old sister. The men returned to their checkpoint unnoticed, and for months afterward, the massacre was considered by the Army and locals alike to be just another outburst...
Aside from the BYF, which would be cut from $9 million to zero under the new budget proposal, other youth-oriented programs may be trimmed as well. The Department of Public Health Youth Violence Prevention Program would be reduced from $3.5 million dollars to zero, and the Shannon Anti-gang Violence Program would be cut from $13 million to zero.

...Thurber’s lone and treacly nod to Pittsburgh’s industrial past.But it’s not all fun with Cleve and Jane. As an antidote to the plot’s syrupiness, Thurber plops in a very vinegary element: the mob. References to the Pittsburgh gang scene run throughout the movie, just detailed enough to flash “real life danger” on the screen. In fact, while Thurber keeps the mob at a considerable distance (we don’t know, for example, why Cleveland is involved), he relies on its existence...
