is it that he (Ward) was doing so great
and so different than other employees at Metra who have gone three
years without a pay raise that would make this person special?"Clifford
ultimately rejected the request. In a statement, Madigan acknowledged sending
a "recommendation to Metra senior staff that Mr. Ward be considered for
a salary adjustment. ... When notified Mr. Clifford had concerns about the
appearance of the recommendation coming from my office, I withdrew the request."During
a trip to the state Capitol in Springfield, Clifford says he was
asked by Democratic state lawmaker Rep. Luis Arroyo to consider hiring somebody
the Latino caucus sends him. Clifford says he told Arroyo "we have
a process. Times are different today at Metra than they were under
my predecessor. Every applicant, every employee will come in through the
front door."Clifford went on to point fingers at those who intentionally
"railroaded" him into a poor performance evaluation which led to the end
of his contract -- specifically Metra Chairman Brad O'Hallaron and another
Metra board member. When Clifford approached O'Hallaron about his upcoming
contract he claims O'Hallaron responded, "but we're just dating." Then said,
"I need to get a meeting with Mr. Madigan and I need
to find out what kind of damage you've caused to our potential
for future funding."When it was his turn to testify, O'Hallaron denied Clifford's

Beltrame, the top security official for Rio de Janeiro state
overseeing the police who will counter any violent protests, said he's certain
his officers "are ready to host the pope" because they know his
set agenda and have a plan in place.However, Beltrame acknowledged that
the protests are an unknown factor and that each demonstration would need
to be approached differently depending upon how it unfolds."The challenges
of the protests are different. The police have to be flexible and
adapt, because there is no coordinated agenda (of protests)," he said. "We're
vigilant, but it depends upon how they happen, when they happen, which
is information that we don't fully have."Joe Biundini, a Brazilian-born
former U.S. Marine who heads the FAM International Group security firm,
warned that much will depend on police response to any protests."If you
see the police doing something stupid, like violently attacking protesters,
that could cause some very serious problems," Biundini said.Security officials
have said the stiffest security challenge will be providing security for
the pope's two mass events on 2.5 mile-long (4 kilometer-long) Copacabana
beach. Still, they insist they're experienced in handling mega-crowds and
point to a string of concerts that have attracted similarly massive numbers
of spectators to Copacabana.April's bombing attacks on the Boston Marathon,
which killed three and injured 264, have certainly raised sensitivities
