Ethnic Kuoy villagers protest where resin trees were allegedly cleared in Preah Vihears Tbeng Meanchey district last year. PHOTO SUPPLIED

Dissident monk But Buntenh was arrested along with a fellow monk and three NGO workers who had attended a protest by ethnic Kouy villagers held yesterday against an alleged land grab by three plantation companies in Preah Vihears Tbeng Meanchey district.

Buntenh, president of the Independent Monks Network (IMN), was detained along with monk Nam Chanthen and Community Legal Education Center (CLEC) members Bo Pao, Em Sarom and Chhen Sambo, Sambo said yesterday.

Sambo said about 40 armed police and military officers detained them as they left the protest site, alleging they had trespassed on private property without permission.

I do not know whether we will be released or not, he said as police drove the group to the provincial police station yesterday evening.

Lor Chan, a coordinator of Adhoc in Preah Vihear, said that a crowd had gathered outside the district police station while the group was being questioned.

Hundreds of people are protesting there to demand their release, he said, adding that if the case was taken to court Adhoc would offer legal aid.

The Kouy protesters, representing 528 families in the district, say Chinese firms Lan Feng and Roy Feng and a local company, Ly Heng, began clearing their land of resin trees in 2012 and the dispute remains unresolved.

In 2011, Lan Feng was granted 9,015 hectares in the area for an economic land concession, and Roy Feng has the rights to 8,841 hectares, government records show.

Chann said that the companies had been clearing the land without measuring the boundaries of their concessions and studying the possible effects on local communities.

MANILA, Philippines - A young architect was shot dead on New Year's eve in Marikina City in front of his parents over an alleged spat on Facebook.

The victim and his family were at their residence in the city's Barangay Concepcion Uno watching fireworks when four men riding on two motorcycles approached and, without warning, shot Jeffrey Rivera.

"Kitang kita ko biglang binaril yong anak ko. Kala ko laruan lang bigla na lang tumumba anak ko, walang nagawa," said the victims mother, Oli Rivera.

[I saw my son suddenly gunned down. He looked like a lifeless toy as he suddenly fell, helpless.]

One of the four assailants shot the victim again as he lay on the pavement.

"Binaril pa uli sa giliddumapa na lang ako. Siya talaga pinuntirya [He was shot at his sideI just ducked. He was really the one being targeted], said the victims father, Theody Rivera.

Jeffrey, who sustained five gunshot wounds, died before he reached the hospital.

The victim's parents said they did not know anyone who considered their son an enemy. They said Jeffrey had worked as an interior designer of a grocery store and often simply went out with his girlfriend.

SAN MATEO -- Uatesoni and Anna Paasi spent the morning of Black Friday at Kmart buying a new oven. They needed it for a special occasion: a party following the ceremonial blessings of two infant grandchildren.

On Sunday, Dec. 1, the Mormon couple hosted more than 50 friends and relatives in their backyard, serving roast leg of pork and other Tongan specialties. They had held dozens of family gatherings since buying their York Avenue house in 2006. This may have been the last.

Three days later, Anna Paasi stood in the street in shock, watching flames consume their home in San Mateo's North Shoreview neighborhood. Despite the heat from the fire, she was shivering.

"It was not too cold," recalled Anna Paasi, 53, "but I was shaking."

No one was hurt in the fire, which began around 10 p.m. and burned into the early morning, but the Paasis lost most of their possessions, including a pickup truck that was parked in the driveway. The fire marshal has not determined the cause, but the Paasis say firefighters told them it may have been electrical wiring in the garage.

Their home is insured through their bank, they say, and they hope to rebuild. But they did not have insurance for their belongings. A friend of the family has begun an online fundraising drive to help them put their lives back together.

Blackened shell

On Thursday, Uatesoni and Anna Paasi drove to their charred two-bedroom house from a San Mateo homeless shelter where they are staying along with five family members, including two sons and a grandson, who lived with them.

The broken windows of the one-story building are boarded up. There is a pile of trash on the lawn. Inside the blackened, gutted house the carpet is still spongy from the water that put out the flames. The Paasis' prized oven is rust-colored, oxidized by the fire and heaped with insulation that fell down from the attic.

Anna Paasi picked through the ruins of her bedroom, looking for salvageable clothes. She and her husband were wearing outfits they bought with a $1,000 debit card from the Red Cross.

FORT WAYNE, Ind. (WANE) - Stalled furnaces and frozen pipes are a common problem thanks to the sub-zero temperatures outside. Since Thursday, one heating and plumbing company in the area has had about 350 calls for service.

Friday morning, Fort Wayne homeowner Bob Blanton woke up with an unexpected surprise from Mother Nature.

Woke up this morning and guess what, the coldest day of the year and the furnace doesn't work, Blanton said.

It's a problem Dave Korte's heating and cooling business sees a lot this time of year.

The most common call when it gets sub-zero like this would be frozen pipes, said Korte, vice president of Korte Does It All Inc. Secondary would be no heat.

But Korte said there are ways to prepare when the mercury gets this low. When it's below zero, he said leave water dripping in the faucets so pipes dont freeze.

For the furnace:

As for the verdict on Blanton's furnace, repair crews discovered problems with the pressure switch caused it to stop working. They got the furnace on again and he should have a warm night.

Dick Fox, owner of Fox & Fox vehicle repair, said he's seen a lot of cars over the past couple days that won't start because of the cold weather. For vehicles parked outside in the frigid temperatures overnight, Fox said:
