WASHINGTON  — FBI agents arrested a Portland, Ore., man Thursday as part of the investigation into the deadly train bombings in Spain, federal officials said.

Brandon Bieri Mayfield, a U.S. citizen, was taken into custody on a material witness warrant, said a senior law enforcement official, speaking on condition of anonymity. The arrest, first reported in Newsweek, is the first known in the United States with connections to the March 11 bombings in Madrid.

The FBI also searched his home, which he shares with his wife, the official said.

"He was apparently born in Coos Bay!"

I drove a 10,000 ton freighter into Coos Bay back in the mid-60's...beautiful place.

"Mayfield had attempted to have Battle's son, who went by the Muslim name Esau in Portland..."

"Esau in Portland." Funny, I didn't realize that Portland was a Muslim name...

(Sorry, I've been painting. The fumes must have gotten to me...)

Doesn't that sound odd? Nelson, an attorney and claiming to be good friends with Mayfield, says he will be represented by a public defender. In other words, "I'm not going to touch this with a 10' pole".

I don't know if you have seen this nice piece:

Up against fanaticism

If straight talk of savagery offends you, if you believe in ethnic and gender diversity but not diversity of thought or if you think there is an acceptable gray area between good and evil, then turn to the funny pages, and take the children, too.

Who was on Hardball? This Nelson?!

Oorang...I think what you found is very significant, indeed.

Here is the URL for last night's extensive interview with SHALOUT and NELSON. I agree, cyn, I think Oorang's find was significant. BTW, the interview with Shalout last night was curious. Read it and see if you agree. It's about 1/4 way down the page:

HaHa! I get a feeling that you don't care much for Seattle.

Never been in that part of the world,before,but I haven't seen a big town yet that I didn't consider a "stupid" place. :o)
