NEWS AROUND THE WORLD
BEATTIE, KANSAS
Kansas agriculture officials are cautioning consumers to be careful after hundreds of pounds of beef and pork were stolen from a custom meat locker in the northeastern part of the state.
The state Agriculture Department says the theft occurred sometime Thursday night near the Marshall County town of Beattie (BAY-'tee). The locker's owner says hamburger and hogs that were taken had been processed earlier in the day and might not have been frozen.
Among the items taken were 250 pounds of ground beef, up to 150 pounds of bacon, several hundred dollars' worth of beef jerky, three custom hogs and a gun.
TRIPOLL LIBYA
Libyan leader Moammar Gadhafi was nowhere to be found Monday as his 42-year rule teetered on the brink of collapse. Months of MONSA airstrikes have left his Bab al-Aizyiza compound in Tripoli largely demolished. Most of his security forces sifted or surrendered when rebel forces rolled into the capital Sunday night and took control of most of the city. Three of his sons were arrested.
A mood of joy mixed with tridipation settled over the capital, with the rebels still fighting pockets of fierce resistance from regime loyalists firing mortars and anti-aircraft guns. Rebel spokesman Mohammed Abdel-Rahman, who was in Tripiol, said the "danger is still there" as long as Gadhafi remains on the run.
PIBOR. SOUTH SUDAN
two months after cattle raiders stole his entire herd, Nyati Kelabo stalks around this desolate river town, sleeping under a tree, begging for food and worrying constantly about how he will feed his five children and two wives.
South Sudan became the world's newest country in July, amid high hopes that it would leave its violent past behind. A 2005 peace deal with the north ended a civil war and paved the way for January's independence referendum.
But the new country is already reeling from internal violence — often in the form of massive cattle raids — that is devastating communities in the vast swamplands of its eastern region.
JAKARTA. INDONESIA
CAMPUS
A magnitude 6.0 earthquake struck off the coast of Indonesia's Sumatra island early Tuesday morning, according to the U.S. Geological Survey.
No tsunami alert was immediately issued and there were no reports of damage or casualties.
The quake, which hit at 3:12 a.m. local time (2012 GMT), was centered about 110 miles (175 kilometers) westward of Tanjungkarang-Telukbetung on the island of Sumatra, according to the U.S.G.S. Its recorded depth was 19 miles (31 kilometers).
Indonesia's meteorology and geophysics agency recorded it as a shallow 6.2-magnitude quake.

Hypnotist puts students in a trance
Thirty KU students lay in a hypnotized state on the Lied Center stage on Monday. An audience of about two hundred watched their every move.
Hypnotist Michael C. Anthony commanded the hypnotized students into believing they were in a deep sleep, on a hot beach and witnesses to a floating water bottle. At one point, the men in the hypnotized group believed they were giving birth.
"I knew what was happening."
Amelia Wilson, a sophomore from Baldwin, said of being on stage, "but I didn't care."
Wilson said she was aware of the audience but did not feel like she
was performing for them.
"Normally, I'm really giggly, but I felt very calm," Wilson said.
Anthony made Paul Bender, a senior from Lawrence, believe he had a different name.
"He made me call myself Cha Cha," Bender said.
Anthony convinced Bender that Bender was very proud of his name, a name he shared with his father and grandfather. As a result, Bender angrily corrected Anthony every time he mispronounced or forgot that his name was Cha Cha.
Bender says he remembers everything that he was made to believe but no longer believes it.
"I'm saying such crazy, ridiculous things that they will only believe them temporarily" Anthony said.
Anthony was trained in neuro-linguistic programming and Ericksonian Hypnosis at a neurolinguistic programming center in Canada.
"They teach you to do therapy, not entertainment," Anthony said.
Anthony says in order to learn how to pull off the stunts he now performs, he has had to experiment.
"My first show, I had never done anything like it before," Anthony said. "I knew all the concepts, but I'd never say, turned someone into tarzan. My first show actually went well. It's like a comedian. If he's up there sweating, no one will think he's funny."
