A woman died Thursday after her scarf and her hair got caught
in the teeth of a Montreal metro escalator and the scarf then
apparently strangled her.The Montreal Gazette reports that the incident
occurred when the 48-year-olds scarf got caught in the escalator Thursday
morning.The womans scarf got caught in the escalator and then she bent
down to try to get it out and her hair got stuck,
too, Constable Jean-Pierre Brabant told The Gazette.A bystander called 911
and by the time police arrived, she was declared dead.The Gazette said
she apparently was strangled by the scarf.Bob Lamle, a spokesman for Montreal's
ambulance service, said Thursday he had never seen anything like it in
his 30-year career.The firefighters, first responders, got there first and
began resuscitation efforts. Our technicians arrived and took over but it
was not viable and the woman was declared dead, Lamle said.There is
an emergency stop button at the top and bottom of the escalator,
as in all escalators serving the system. Constable Brabant said he did
not know whether anyone pressed the stop button while the woman, who
was not identified, struggled.Metro users were shocked by the news that
someone could die while doing something most of them do several times
a day.Personally, Im really traumatized because I use that escalator every
day, 13-year-old Philippe Silyutintold The Gazette as he was standing with
friends outside the Fabre station entrance while police in
willing
to talk seriously about transferring power or not."Brahimi also repeatedly
said prior to the talks that they should not be open-ended.In Berlin,
German Foreign Minister Frank-Walter Steinmer called the talks in Geneva
a small step."Of course we are not satisfied with the results achieved
so far," he said, adding that the next step should be an
agreement on local cease-fires and humanitarian corridors.About 200 pro-government
demonstrators gathered Friday outside the U.N. building in Geneva to show
their support for Assad."We are with the peace negotiations. Syria needs
peace," said protester Sabah Kasouha, who used to live in Homs. "When
all the countries stop funding the rebels who came from many countries
to destroy Syria, then we will be fine."Assad's family, from Syria's Alawite
minority, has ruled the country since 1970 while rebellions by Syria's Sunni
majority were crushed.The Syrian uprising began with largely peaceful calls
for reform in March 2011 and escalated into fighting after a military
crackdown. It has since been transformed into a regional proxy war between
Iran and Saudi Arabia supporting opposing sides.Foreign fighters and Islamic
extremists have infiltrated the opposition side, triggering infighting that
has undermined the rebellion against Assad.

<p style="font-size:xx-small;">East Rutherford, N.J., is planning a block party for a certain really
big football game scheduled to take place in the borough on Sunday.
(FoxNews.com)But the town of just under 9,000 is not allowed to promote
the event using the words "Super Bowl," thanks to the NFL's legal
team. (FoxNews.com)So instead of referring to the biggest event in the town's
history, the town is using phrases like this one to promote its
party.EastRutherfordNJ.netSuper Bowl XLVIII's hometown has a rude guest.The
sports world is converging on East Rutherford (pop. 8.978) for Sunday's
game between the Denver Broncos and the Seattle Seahawks, and all the
town wanted to do was have a little block party for locals
not rich or lucky enough to have tickets.The NFL can't stop the
party, but they did bar East Rutherford from using the phrase "Super
Bowl" in any description of the humble event, set to take place
Sunday afternoon in the shadow of the town's most famous building, MetLife
Stadium.- Michael Hildebrandt, lifelong East Rutherford residentDo I feel
snubbed? Mayor James Casella replied when asked by FoxNews.com if he thought
it was fair. This is the way it has always been, I
never expect more.So Sunday's event, at which main drag Park Avenue will
be blocked off, live bands will play and local restaurants will serve
up food and drink in the open air, will be dubbed The
Meadowlands Tailgate Party Live from East Rutherford. The town's website
trumpets a "Game Da

likely to seek out remedies," Birndorf said. "They may believe that taking
Xanax to relieve those feelings is beneficial. But it doesn't address whatever
was causing their stress to begin with."Still, the fact is that some
doctorswho more than anyone should be aware of the risksare doling out
Xanax in irresponsible and harmful ways. Though Xanax's prescribing information
has long included clear wording about potential dangers and warnings against
overprescribing, and medical organizations such as the American Psychiatric
Association echo these in their guidelines, some doctors aren't paying attention.Benzos
are now so mainstream that "psychiatric issues are sometimes being treated
by primary-care physicians, who may not have enough training in or understanding
of these drugs," Gitlow said.More than half of all benzo prescriptions are
written by primary-care physicians, not psychiatrists, according to one
study published in the journal Psychiatry."Doctors who don't understand
these drugs often up the dosageto treat symptoms that the drug itself
may be causing," he added.The lack of awareness is complicated by the
fact that many patients self-diagnose and ask for the drugs by name."It's
not that there are a lot of doctors just saying, 'Oh, I'll
hand this stuff out like gummi bears,'" Gitlow said. "But people are
