Barbie dolls have long inspired young girls with their beauty and fashion sense. Now they're inspiring them with their brains and bravado, too.On Tuesday, just ahead of International Women's Day, Barbie introduced a batch of new dolls based on real-life figures.The new dolls came after Mattel, maker of Barbie, conducted a survey of 8,000 mothers around the globe and found that 86% are worried about the kind of role models their daughters are exposed to."Girls have always been able to play out different roles and careers with Barbie and we are thrilled to shine a light on real life role models to remind them that they can be anything," wrote Lisa McKnight, senior vice president and general manager of Barbie, in a news release.This week Mattel introduced dolls in two separate series of Barbies: "Inspiring Women," based on historical figures, and new additions to its "Shero" line of dolls named for inspirational contemporary women.Both lines reflect the Barbie brand's highest honor: a one-of-a-kind doll made in a real woman's likeness.Inspiring WomenThe "Inspiring Women" dolls come with educational information about the contributions each woman made to society.One is Amelia Earhart, the first female aviator to fly across the Atlantic Ocean. Frida Kahlo, the renowned Mexican artist and activist, will be another.Barbie will also honor Katherine Johnson, a pioneer in mathematics who broke barriers of race and gender. One of the characters in the hit movie "Hidden Figures," Johnson was among a pool of women hired by NASA to work as human "computers" for the first US-manned flight into space.Although the "Inspiring Women" series only has three dolls so far, it will grow with the release of new dolls, said Marissa Beck, spokeswoman for Mattel."The Inspiring Women Series pays tribute to incredible heroines of their time; courageous women who took risks, changed rules, and paved the way for generations of girls to dream bigger than ever before," Beck wrote in an email to CNN.SheroesBarbie's "Shero" program began in 2015 to highlight real women who have broken boundaries in their field.This week, Barbie released 14 new Shero dolls, including ones based on "Wonder Woman" director Patty Jenkins and US snowboarder Chloe Kim, who just won a gold medal at the 2018 Winter Games in Pyeongchang. Other Shero dolls honor fashion designers, journalists, actresses and entrepreneurs.These Sheroes include honorees from the United States, Australia, United Kingdom, Turkey, France, China, Germany, Mexico, Poland, Italy and Spain, Beck said.The dolls will start to roll out to stores nationwide soon but are currently for pre-sale now on the Barbie website.The-CNN-Wire? & ? 2018 Cable News Network, Inc., a Time Warner Company.

BETHLEHEM, West Bank (AP) — Pilgrims from around the world flocked to Bethlehem on Monday for what was believed to be the biblical West Bank city's largest Christmas celebrations in years.Hundreds of locals and foreign visitors milled in Manger Square as bagpipe-playing Palestinian Scouts paraded past a giant Christmas tree. Crowds flooded the Church of the Nativity, venerated as the traditional site of Jesus's birth, and waited to descend into the ancient grotto.Palestinian Tourism Minister Rula Maaya said all Bethlehem hotels were fully booked, and the city was preparing to host an "astounding" 10,000 tourists overnight."We haven't seen numbers like this in years," she said, adding that the 3 million visitors to Bethlehem this year exceeded last year's count by hundreds of thousands.Solemn-faced nuns and enthused tourists crossed themselves and bowed over their rosaries as they entered the church, the air thick with incense.Linda Selbmann, 24, of Chemnitz, Germany, said she had long dreamed of celebrating Christmas in Bethlehem."It's wild to be in the place it all began," she said, sipping Turkish coffee in front of a statue of the Virgin Mary cradling the infant Jesus.The Christmas festivities traditionally bring a boost of holiday cheer to Christians in the Holy Land, whose numbers have shrunk over the decades relative to the general population and now make up just a minority.As the sun set on Manger Square, the enormous Christmas tree lit up and the city's ancient passageways shone with colored string lights and flashing crosses. Choirs sang classic carols and hymns, their voices echoing throughout the plaza.Palestinian youths peddled Santa hats to tourists and shop windows bearing signs reading "Jesus Is Here" displayed olivewood Nativity scenes and other souvenirs.Archbishop Pierbattista Pizzaballa, the top Roman Catholic cleric in the Holy Land, entered Bethlehem after crossing an Israeli military checkpoint from Jerusalem.At a midnight Mass at the Church of the Nativity, Pizzaballa addressed a packed house of worshippers and dignitaries that included Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas and Prime Minister Rami Hamdallah.Pizzaballa said the recent restoration of the church was a metaphor for recent events in the region."The mosaics were splendid, but covered by a layer of dirt," he said at the start of his homily."This last year was terrible," said Pizzaballa, referring to the upsurge in violence between Israelis and Palestinians, "so we all tend to think that all is dirty. But if you remove this layer of dirt we see how wonderful the mosaics are.""Since it's Christmas, we have to be positive," the archbishop said.Palestinian security personnel and vehicles stationed around the square reminded visitors that amid the merriment, they couldn't quite escape the city's political reality. Bethlehem is located in the Palestinian-controlled area of the West Bank, and much of the city lies behind Israel's separation barrier."Last year things were worse because the injustice was so obvious," said Maaya, the tourism minister, referring to U.S. President Donald Trump's decision to recognize Jerusalem as the capital of Israel, incensing the Palestinians and igniting clashes. "But this year doesn't feel so different. We are still occupied, and we always have problems," she said.Monjed Jadou, a Bethlehem resident, said that although he noticed an impressive number of foreigners in the square, the crowds of Palestinian visitors appeared thinner than usual."Security is tighter around here than it's been in a while, and the streets feel less safe. I think people are afraid," he said, adding that his friends from the West Bank city of Ramallah decided not to come because the Israeli army had been blocking roads around the city.The West Bank has seen a spike in violence in recent weeks, set off by a pair of deadly shootings targeting Israeli soldiers and settlers claimed by the Islamic militant group Hamas. Israel has ratcheted up security at checkpoints as it presses on with its manhunt for suspected Palestinian assailants.Other visitors seemed unconcerned by recent violence in the area."This has been No. 1 on my bucket list," said Yohannes Denu, 42, of Los Angeles. "There's no better place to be as a Christian, it takes me back to all the rich stories I heard growing up. To be at the center of my faith, it's joyous, it's unbelievable."In anticipation of the midnight Mass at the Church of the Nativity, the climax of Christmas Eve celebrations, Palestinians and pilgrims huddled in groups, some singing "Silent Night" and carrying candles."This is a day of celebration," Maaya said. "And we have hope that one day we'll be able to celebrate like everyone else." 4740

BUFFALO, N.Y. — Newly-released body camera footage shows a New York Supreme Court justice admitting to shoving a police officer, repeatedly stating that he has family ties to the Buffalo police force and even invoking a friendship with Mayor Byron W. Brown as he sought lenient treatment for himself and his wife during an incident in June.The footage was released after Scripps station WKBW in Buffalo reported in June that State Supreme Court Justice Mark J. Grisanti was under police investigation over a street brawl between the justice, his wife and their North Buffalo neighbors. Grisanti and his wife were both handcuffed and placed in the back of police cars, but officials announced in July that they would not be facing charges.In the body camera footage, Grisanti repeatedly states that his daughter and son-in-law are police officers, as does his wife, Maria Grisanti.“Ma'am, if you don't stop yelling, this is gonna be a problem for you,” a Buffalo police officer told Grisanti's wife, Maria, as she was yelling at her neighbors across the street.“I don’t care,” Maria Grisanti yelled back.The officer then crossed the street and attempted to put Maria Grisanti in handcuffs. That's when her husband began shouting at the officer. Video shows Grisanti approach the office him from behind and shove him.“You better get off my f---ing wife,” Mark Grisanti yelled after being told to "keep his hands off cops." “My daughter and my son are both Buffalo police officers...I’ll call them right now.”Buffalo Police spokesman Capt. Jeff Rinaldo said Grisanti was not charged because he "didn’t tackle anyone. He didn’t punch him. He gave him, like, a shoulder shove."Rinaldo said it was the officers' decision not to charge Grisanti for the push to the officer. "The DA did not offer an opinion on that," Rinaldo said. "That was their [the officers'] discretion not to charge him for the push."At another point in the video, Grisanti can be seen shirtless, yelling at officers to remove the handcuffs from his wife, who is in the back of a patrol car.“If you don’t get the cuffs off her right now, you’re gonna have a problem,” Grisanti yelled.WARNING: This video has not been censored and contains adult language. Viewer discretion is advised.“Don’t threaten that,” the officer says to him, before Mark When the officer warns Grisanti about threaten police, the judge told the officer that he is calling the lieutenant who supervises his daughter, Ashley Amoia, and son-in-law David Cole.Grisanti then dropped the name of Deputy Police Commissioner Joseph Gramaglia.“Gramaglia’s...my cousin,” he said.Rinaldo, the police spokesman, said Gramaglia denied that he is related to Grisanti. Moving up the chain of command, the former state senator then invoked the name of Buffalo’s mayor.“Listen, I’m good friends with Byron Brown,” Grisanti said.“It has been, and remains, my policy as Mayor not to interfere in any police investigation," Buffalo Mayor Byron W. Brown said through a spokesperson. "I have not spoken to the Buffalo Police Department, District Attorney Flynn, or Judge Grisanti regarding this matter. I believe that the District Attorney’s office is in the best position to determine the appropriate course of action."Later, the video shows that Officer Richard Hy lost patience with the shirtless State Supreme Court justice; he got in Grisanti’s face and waved his finger“You wanna drop another copper's name? You want to scream about [how] you know Gramaglia or the mayor? Why don't you shut the f--- up,” Hy said. “You want to say I know all these coppers, I know all these things? You want to make us look dirty.? Is that what you want to do?”Hy handcuffed Grisanti and placed him in the back of a police car. Later, Grisanti talked directly with Detective Mark Costantino, who he appears to know on a first-name basis.Law360 reported that Costantino is Grisanti’s first cousin, but Rinaldo did not respond to a question about whether that was the case.“They're saying you pushed an officer,” Costantino said to Grisanti. “You wouldn't do that, would ya?”WARNING: This video has not been censored and contains adult language. Viewer discretion is advised.“I pushed him and I said, ‘Don't friggin tackle her’ and I pushed him,” Grisanti said. “I apologized to him, Mark, right after that because I said, 'Listen, I respect you guys in law enforcement,’ you know I go, 'My daughter's a police officer, my son in law's a police officer, all my family's police officers.’”Costantino then reminded Grisanti that his status as a State Supreme Court judge could be in jeopardy if the incident becomes public.“I mean, I just...the thing that freaks me out is that everything you do is gonna be scrutinized because of your job,” Costantino said.“Well Mark, I never mentioned anything about my job or who I was, you could ask any officer, I never mentioned anything like that,” Grisanti said.“If you get arrested, you know that's gonna be on [the news],” Costantino said.Rinaldo acknowledged that Costantino is indeed Grisanti's cousin. "It appears the detective reached out to the lieutenant on scene and she allowed him to speak with Mr. Grisanti," Rinaldo said when asked why Grisanti was allowed to have a private discussion with the detective.Though Grisanti will face no criminal charges in Erie County, Gina Mele — the neighbor who was involved in the fight with the Grisantis — said she has been contacted by investigators from the New York State Committee on Judicial Conduct, which has the power to sanction or remove judges.“Certainly he's not happy about it,” said attorney Leonard D. Zaccagnino, who is representing Grisanti. “Certainly he wishes the incident never occurred.”Zaccagnino said Grisanti was trying to defend his wife, and he feels his actions are being taken out of context.“And he got angry, and he raised his voice, he put his hand up, and he did make contact with the officer,” Zaccagnino said. “He feels bad about it, OK? He feels bad about the whole incident.”This is not the first time an altercation involving Grisanti and his wife has spilled out into public view.Grisanti was injured in a 2012 scuffle at the Seneca Niagara Casino in Niagara Falls in which he said he and his wife were attacked and beaten during a confrontation with members of the Seneca Nation of Indians. He was a state senator at the time.Grisanti, a Republican, lost his senate seat in 2014 but was appointed to a Court of Claims judgeship by Gov. Andrew Cuomo in 2015. While a senator, Grisanti provided Cuomo with a key ‘yes’ vote on Cuomo’s marriage equality legislation, and the governor wrote about Grisanti’s role in his recent biography.The judicial post came with a salary of 4,000.This story was originally published by Charlie Specht on WKBW in Buffalo. 6796
