The latest and greatest on CNN iReport, brought to you by Team iReport.
Team iReport celebrates our fifth birthday in August 2011!
There are lots of folks at CNN who help make iReport tick (in addition to our awesome community, of course). Here are some quick introductions to a few of the folks you're most likely to encounter here:
Katie Hawkins-Gaar Hi! I run the iReport team here at CNN, which means I oversee our editorial and developmental priorities, coordinate with colleagues across CNN, figure out iReport's crazy bright future, and lots of exciting stuff in between. I love to hear iReporters’ stories and dream up new and interesting ways to share them with the world. If you have an iReport project idea, let me know! I’m all ears.
David Williams I am the community manager at CNN iReport. I've been with CNN for 15 years. I want your experience here at CNN iReport to be as good as it can be, so if you have a problem or suggestions for improving the site, please drop me a line at david.williams@turner.com.
Christina Zdanowicz Hey, I'm Christina, the CNN iReport news producer. I lead our daily news operations and make sure iReport is represented in the top stories. From covering breaking news to creating newsy assignments, you can say I’m a newshound. When I'm not in iReportland, you'll see me donning red sneakers, toting a camera in hand.
Daphne Sashin I serve as the bridge between the iReport community and CNN’s television networks. It’s my job to work with producers at CNN, CNN International, CNN en Espanol and HLN to find new and creative ways to showcase your stories.
Sarah Brown Hi there! I’m iReport’s writer/producer in London, England, where I work on all the fantastic international content you send in to us from across the world. I’m always thrilled to see the fascinating stories iReporters send in to us from Australia to Zambia, so if you’ve got something you’d like to share, I’d love to hear it!
Rachel Rodriguez Hi, I'm Rachel. Being a CNN iReport writer/producer means I get to write stories, build beautiful interactive features, and even find the occasional bit of fame and fortune by showing off your iReports on TV. Oh, and go on Facebook and watch funny iReport videos at work. When I'm not telling your stories, you can find me leading weekly CNN yoga (yes, really).
Henry Hanks Hi, I'm Henry, a CNN iReport writer/producer. I talk to iReporters every day. If your iReport is compelling and/or newsworthy, you may hear from me soon.
Jareen Imam Greetings! My name is Jareen and I am an associate producer with CNN iReport. Being an AP with iReport means I have the amazing opportunity to meet and chat with iReporters from around the world. Besides vetting iReports and creating stories, I am also a creative writer and I do standup comedy.
Nicole Saidi Hi, my name is Nicole, and I work with comments on CNN.com. You could say that I wear a lot of hats around here, both literally and figuratively. I'm always on the hunt for stories on our site that are generating a lot of buzz. Got an awesome idea? Talk to me. Let's make it happen.
Jenna DiMaria I’m the publicist for CNN iReport, so I spearhead the press relations for the iReport team and all of their cool projects. I love checking out all your submissions, so keep ‘em coming, folks!
Nnedike Ugoji Hi I’m Nnedike, your marketing lead for CNN iReport. It’s my job to help build awareness around iReport, and let people know about all of the ways they can participate. I also help to spread the word about iReport’s exciting assignments, interactives, new programs and features.
Christian Oliver I'm the technophilic Business Manager from the Strategy group that is always trying to come up with interesting opportunities to help make iReport grow, build new features and reach a larger audience. I may freak out if I'm offline but can always compensate by putting on my running shoes. Have worked with online journalism since 1995. Have tried lots of things, many of them once, but I'm always willing to try something new, specially in music. Generally afraid of resisting to change. Believe that if I'm not failing, I'm playing it too safe.
Eric Hernandez Hello iReporters. My name is Eric Hernandez, I manage the group that works with you if you experience issues accessing any parts of the site or run into any trouble uploading data. I graduated from Florida State University, and have been with CNN for about seven years.
Kyle Hale Hello fellow iReporters! My name is Kyle and I help handle your technical issues here at iReport. Whatever your problem is, be it your submissions aren't showing up, you are having upload problems, you've spilt coffee on your brand new computer -- I'm here to help! I want you, the iReporter, to know that any question is a good question and I'll be happy to walk you through any problems you are having with iReport. So hurry up and upload some awesome photos and videos!
Zach Conrad I help with iReporter requests and technical support. In other words, if you're having trouble with uploading or maybe viewing videos, I do my best to provide assistance. I graduated from Georgia State University and have been with CNN for eight years.
WOW! The Team has grown :)
Thanks for makig iReport what it is.

Where's Elizabeths bio?
Hey KCRep - the folks you see here are just the ones you're most likely to meet on iReport. There are folks across CNN who work with iReport, too, but aren't listed here.
Thanks lila!!
(pokes head in, waves, then silently departs...)
awww ...so cool ... looks a really nice team :))) thank you team xxx
Hi everyone out there, u guys look fab!!
Hey, is anybody older than 25 in here? lol...you all do look great!!
I see a hard working group of smart, young professionals. I am envious, what a great time of life for you all and to be in Atlanta with such cool jobs. Having the whole world watching what you do for a living and you can tell that you all love doing it. With technology and the advances of the internet, it has been fun for someone like me (an ol guy) to learn to maneuver through the web and follow you all on your twitters and flickrs pages. And ya'll have helped be to become quite the local celebrity myself, with CNN iReport and face book, I get to brag about my vetted reports to my friend and on a rare occasion, I get some air time on our local television and in our local paper. So, I want to say thanks for showing my photography to the world (I am very proud of that) and congrates to you all for landing a job at CNN. Keep working hard, enjoy your young life’s and I look forward to seeing what you come up with next!
Gosh, thanks James! What a nice thing to say. And for the record, KCRep, a handful of us are well past 25. :)
lila....lol, ok, you might look 26.
In the private information you require in our ireporter profiles that is not publically available, I am not able to enter my telephone number. Rather, I do enter my telephone number, but the system does not appear to be retaining my telephone number.
Nice meeting you folk's,
I always wanted to put a face with a voice. Keep up the good work although you all make it look like fun.
Have a wonderful Thanksgiving 2009

Greetings for the New Year 2011! Time does fly in the 21st century. I have addressed Email to you directly. When do you reply to iReporters?
I regret to say that the vetting of the photograps at times is not very accurate.There are some photos that get vetted which are just anonymous snapshots while at times there are good photos that don't get vetted.
Which is the criteria for vetting photos?
A great bunch of people. I hope to see iReport grow and improve....
I just have to say this: you guys are doing a great job.

i love to join the i report team ,what are all the procedure?
Hi @libinhalo1! The best way to join the iReport team is to start submitting iReports of your own about news stories that matter to you. We've had a number of regular iReporters who have landed jobs at CNN or elsewhere in the journalism world, and we'd love to add more people to that list!
WOW, nice to see so many new people. This new site is as gorgeous as it is functional. I'll look forward to meeting some of you soon on my next pass through Atlanta : > )
Much Metta
Percy

thank you cnn being a part of u .
I definitely wish I was 30 years younger. There are so many different opportunities, like ireport CNN that were definitely not around when I was younger. In fact, computers were in their infancy then. I never used one until our sons got our first one, an Amiga (great computer for games).
Good going team ireporters.

I really enjoy and appreciate the opportunity of being an ireporter in my town and area. Thanks, to all of you.
Although I joined CNN I-Report some time ago lack of time between my daily nationally syndicated radio talk show, Car Concerns USA, and my other obligation as co-founder of the American Motorist Vote Campaign have prevented me from filing ireports. That changes now!

needs help with everything. Our case manager is being paid by the State of Connecticut and is not giving us young ladies the help and guidance we need. And I am afraid of being on these unsafe streets we are living in today in 2012. It is so said how people in CT are wearing a state badge representing this state and is not doing there job to help us women to move forward in life. A change needs to come soon before things get worst. Thanks for listening.
Hello All Glad to Be Part of The Team Patrick Cavanaugh

Hello iReport Team! Today was the first time since I joined that I have successfully logged on. I'm happy to be here and may discover that my biased opinions might get me into trouble, though once upon a time I hoped I'd be a true journalist.
I really want to get involved with the discussion about Women's Rights with regard to their bodies. We all know what that discussion is about, actually. I'd like to broaden it to include Men's Rights with regard to their bodies, as well. I suppose this would be a commentary rather than a report. Let me know, please, if you, our management team, feel this could be something of interest. I think women would be very interested. Just my humble opinion, or in DECcie terms, jmho, folks.
No wonder my song for Morning Express never got a listen. You guys are young enough to be my kids so there's obviously a generational music gap. lol
Can I resubmit it even if the contest is over? At least its on video now.
Thanks all of cnniReport team

This is going to be Interesting,Fun & Sooo Exciting.An old teacher of mine once told me " A good Reporter can only survive if he has plenty of sharp pencils " Since she didn't know we'd all have computers & the internet,I guess I can't call her a Misleading Fibber..darn ,I always wanted to call her that....NickNorthAble {alert with eyes open}
It was awesome meeting the team! I look forward to submitting compelling stories and working with our CNN iReport Team! Cheers!

Have a blessed journey!
Hey everybody. I have a question related to a CNN interview with police Chief Don Hunter of Marcos Islands, Florida I saw this afternoon. Chief Hunter stated that he investigated a former Florida police officer that was the last one to see two Florida men, (one African-American, and the other Hispanic). He said that the investigation is still open with their sheriffs department. My question is why did he not turn the investigation over to the Feds since the two men are still missing, and the case involved police corruption? Maybe he can be asked this question during a future interview. Thank you.
Hello to the Team!! I'm so excited about you guys are doing and how the team has been growing. It's good to see there are real people behind every story.
Greetings from Boston, MA
I look forward to collaborating!

Thanks CNN for taking my Dick Clark story.
In the late '60s, Mr. Clark was instrumental in getting my Pop group into the Billboard Top 10 with Elvis, Sinatra and the Beatles!
You can find my story under
Memories of Dick Clark here at iReport.
While your there take a listen to my recording
of "Remember Those Sweet Yetserdays." I'm singing
this in memory of Dick Clark who helped
to sweeten all of our lives through music.
The team just keeps on growing
Greetings to the family that I now belong too. I go by the name "The Good Doctor" aka 'Doc'. As I look at the team of I-Reporters. I as well take Pride, in representing This Corporation. While using Tack & determination, I plan on being a strong 'sprocket' in the realm of reporting.
I plead right Here and Now to respect and honor. Those who have came before me. Who's shoulders I now stand upon in my quest of Journalism. I have a superb team that will beat down the doors, and go where "we" are needed within this concrete jungle. Team Swaggas as they are called, will be an asset to CNN I-REPORTERS.
As you read this, we have been working on a story about a 'Big Corporation' since December. We may not win an Award but I can guarantee. After reading my article I am sure it will have the masses saying 'WOW-WEE'.We have been gathering Facts that are Concrete!!! Soon I will be pulling the trigger, That will surely cause Heads to roll,fingers to point & deceitfulness by words (snitching) so that they can get from behind the 8 ball
In closing we look forward to building friendships. With all here at CNN I-reporter. May The Creator guide and protect you all in everything you do.
Respectfully submitted THE GOOD DOCTOR!!!
My new iReport is up for the Tampa/Charlotte Smackdown.

Hello All the CNN team.
I was a news paper journalist in the Pakistan, and i was story maker but here in The Kingdom I am a full story facing modern slavery here in the kingdom with my Cheater sponsor....After arrival in the Kingdom what i lost what thing i got its a countless that i should write a book but simply i would like to share with you peoples i am facing troubles from my sponsor side since 4 years.As below just i am in the harassment. Please any Kind hearted help me to get my Passport+Iqama and my driving license from the sponsor......!!!
To His Highness
I feel revered to discuss my sufferings that I have been facing since four years. I have been acted like a puppet in hands of my sponsor during the above mentioned span of time. Furthermore, I was unable to travel and missed lot of events that came to my life which includes ,death of my father, my family that suffered due to financial issues, looking forward I am pleased to have kind consideration from you to have an immediate action on merit about the cause that I have mentioned in supporting documents. My former sponsor Amhani Baeshin gave my passport to the representative Mahmood Saeed because I got a job under Mahmood Saeed’s supervision. But having a problem in profession that was of watchman Mahmood Saeed was unable to have me under his influence. Then Mahmood Saeed advised me to change my profession in Iqama. Then being opined by some of my friends I came to Mr.Musleh Faisal Al Otaibi and requested him to help me out in changing my profession .He asked me to give SAR 6000.00 to him for implementing a change in Iqama. Afterwards without having any official documents from Amhani Baeshin (former Sponsor) in lieu of changing my profession he took me under the sponsorship of his mother. Then I beseech in front of him that, why you did so and on what grounds you took me under your mother sponsorship. Proscribing all my documents that abounds my passport and Iqama he forcefully ordered me to work for him as a taxi driver, I refused to do so but he threatened and projected me to do work as a driver, I started working with him and when the Iqama expiry period came near he took SAR 2800.00 from me as a Iqama renewal charges. Then I applied for my vacation and he refused then I bow before him to please give me vacation but once again he took my Iqama and license by force. Having bearing all this I contacted one of his friend Muhammad Al Shehri (policeman in Jama P.S) on the request of him he gave me Exit Re entry (vacation of 4 months).Spending those vacation in Pakistan and acknowledging the prevailing circumstance of unemployment and financial Crisis. I came back to Saudi Kingdom .I came to them and requested in a noble and decent demeanor that that please restore my sponsorship due to impairment in my health I am unable to continue it meanwhile I suffered from diseases like, High blood pressure, piles and diabetes. But still all my requests went off his ear .During driving taxi my profession on Iqama was watchman but I had LTV license. I got traffic fine approximately SAR 11000.00. Once again he asked me to arrange SAR 6000.00 in order. He will change my profession from watchman to general driver to avert from traffic fine. Having no way out I further paid him SAR 4500.00. Then he changed my profession from watchman to general driver .Bearing and tolerating all troubles I requested him to release me from his job. He refused and harassed me in his office. Reaching my limit, went for Justice in Labor Court .After filing a Sue against him he didn’t appeared before the honorable Court in eight hearings consecutively . To fix my problem I decided to have a table talk with him. Then Mr.Kahlid Al Ghamdi called him for negotiation bringing the dispute between us on table.
Mr.Kahlid Al Ghamdi contacted my sponsor and organized a meeting on the e17th Jan 2012 at sponsor office. The meeting was held between Mr Khalid and Mr Musleh the sponsor in my absence, the agreement was as follows.
1. The sponsor will renew my Iqama and I will pay him amount,
2. I am to withdraw the court cause against the sponsor; and
3. I will give him the transfer paper in return from my passport.
Following the agreement, I was asked to come into the office (as I was waiting in the car outside the office) and handed over SAR 6500.00 for Iqama renewal.
The following day as per the agreement I withdrew the case from the Saudi Labor Court and submitted the withdrawal letter to the sponsor on the e18th Jan 2012. While I was there the sponsor asked me to pay SAR 1000.00 For additional coast related to Iqama renewal.
After three weeks, the sponsor had renewed my Iqama, but has asked for SAR 1100.00 as additional expenses incurred. I visited his office on 15th Feb 2012 in anticipation of obtaining the passport and Iqama.
At this meeting, the sponsor told me that I have to work for him as a Taxi Driver, I refused to work for him given his character and relationship history.
The sponsor ask

Hi i am writing because the city of Lancaster and Palmdale need your help the Lancaster justice system is using the system as away to get the people of color out of the Antelope Valley and yes i do have proof of this.
They are stop people and putting them in jail for no reason people are coming out to the Antelope Valley for a new started only for the police to kick down people with sec 8 doors and plant evidence on them.
They will go to court and be told my the attorney that is evidence on them and if they do not plead the way they want them to they will for them.
There was a murder in the Valley press the police found the guy that was seen running from the seen with a gun and he told them it was my friend so because there was no one to come to court on the guy the police found they made a deal with the guy that if he get on the stand and say my friend did it they will let him walk on the murder and he will take 6 year for having a gun that they never found. They convicted my friend with no evidence but what the guy they found said he seen. my friend was not seen with a gun and all evidence show that the other guy did it. I am so tired of this court system doing this to people this has got to stop.

Many thanks in advance, very truly yours

I have written over a hundred reports and have been a professional journalist all my life. I am sure there must be favortisms here because I have only ever got vetted once and if anyone checks my stats like on theis latest report I am waaaaaay ahead of every report in most visited but rarely do I get the position earned. I don't care because I don't get paid whereas the team I'm sure does get well remunerated......but they are NOT fair and whoever does the vetting selections,etc should be investigated by CNN and Time Warner!
you guys are awesome
Im happy joining this CNN TEAM :)

To whom it may concern;
Good day! I am decided to share our views and complaints regarding Cyber Internet problems. Nimbuzz Messenger is one of the famous Internet Messenger nowadays! It has a similarity from Yahoo Messenger, it is also have a chatrooms and have a lot of features too. One of the most problems facing on Nimbuzz,firstly many users who joins from different chatrooms, abusing and insulting of Religions, Countries and most especially female users. In behalf of Nimbuzz users, I could tell you how Nimbuzz going on day by day. Almost half of Nimbuzz users complaining to the Nimbuzz Admins Team, we keep sending complaints at support@nimbuzz.com, but we are totally upset nobody giving an attention from them. Chatroom users or room owner, it should buy nimbucks and by using nimbucks, this is the requirements how the chatroom to become famous to be included from the top list chatrooms. We shared this because we want your support to help us how to close this Nimbuzz Chatroom like what they did into Yahoo Messenger Chatrooms. Nimbuzz Messenger, earning money from users, because of the said nimbucks, buying through online site. Nimbuzz chatrooms, It’s really disgusting. Some users abusing each other even family members are also included. We can show you some of the screen shots from Nimbuzz Chatroom how they abused “Allah” named by creating dirty account. Most of them, abusing female users by making porn site using with edited nude pictures and after that they advertise the links to all famous chatrooms. I felt so badly watching them degrading the dignity of being a woman. Please help us, we want some action about this matter. Nimbuzz Staff they don’t have nothing to do,just thinking how they earn money ,they don’t know how to protect their clients. Thanks for reading our letter and we hoping for your kindness to support us. Thanks a lot and God Bless!!

hello cnn ireporters, have a good day guys! :)
I am excited to have a place to have a voice about issues I really care about. Who knows having a voice on CNN maybe I can make a difference. I have always dreamed of making a difference in people's lives by simply being honest and not being afraid to bring it up or talk about it! I don't think of myself as being a controversial person but rather a a person who likes to bring up the so called pink elephant in the room! I have lived long enough on the earth to be a witness to the problems and I care so much for the younger generation, that maybe they can have an inch better than me! Football field would be better but I am worried about them, especially what America will look like in 20 years!
very understandable friends we got here on CNN iReport! keep doing it, and we will keep doing ours. Thanks to our great Team
Bangladesh is on the way of developing country in comparison of last twenty years after independence of 1971 .But facing some troubles for development due to weak political opposition party as well lack of administrative power imposing from the government side. To over come the situation need immediate legal and administrative proper action without violation of human right and under the running legal system and constructive criticism,suggestions and awareness of civic society as well by the opposition.Not to obstruct running economical progress by the violence or any thing else.Its possible by sustainable dialogs among them not for eye wash and for familiarization but for proper democracy and for the peace and progress of the country.
congrats guys, keep it up, our support as always, cheers!!!
From the core of my heart I would like to convey my gesture in favor of the iReport team ,consisted of the talented and courageous folks of the World.For their judicious action my first iReport,captioned"Indian cows and bulls smuggled to Bangladesh" earned Badge A. Thanks to every writer , engaged in developing this popular branch of CNN.
splendid!
good team ! i wanna join it .hahaha
Any development depends on proper policy, implementation, transparency, as well awareness of corruption and liabilities to the public by the administration. On the research and extension required actual facts and accurate data base, priority should be given not to estimated value but on the approximate value oriented figure rather than the political influence. Political stability and fair practice is essential for the economic growth of the country. Not to think back and avoid traditional friction without any base of law. Everyone should be abiding by the law of the country, no one above the law. Politicians will show their mentality of tolerance as well criticize for the betterment of the country not for the unstable peace and order situation ,which will inspire the criminals and so called politician come to the field for their personal interest ,they’re not thinking for the country development only for their personal wealth growing purpose. So to ensure actual democracy need mutual understanding for all sectors accordingly basis on the target based dialogs.
By; Dr.F.A.M.Badiuzzaman.
Education is the Key to stop corruption.
Education played vital rule for the development of the country, if that education work to know more and spread and share with cooperation and research and extension up to the grass root level and able to gear up the general awareness for the mass people not to capitalize in personal stock of knowledge alone.
I think most of the under develop country as well going to be develop country face a problem with corruption and not fair politics due to proper knowledge of utilizations of their internal resources and fair practice of politics due to the lack of general awareness of the people .
Regarding method, plan, implementation procedure, transparency, liabilities obedience to the law and respect to each other and the society as well authority due to the limitation and proper education and research.
That can gradually reduce corruption. Need to give more importance to the early education as well adult education from the grass root level to the top. Education has no boundary. Education cannot for degree it should be for empowering knowledge, research and extension and should start from the family to the nation.
No other method effectively does that so without mass education. That goal should be achieved for the sustainable economical growth as well established a disciplinary national where law and justice always are above of all.
People should know what the long term plan is why and how it takes and who are the beneficiary and how it acts on the national economy for the development of the country and for the people.
How the legislative body works on that, the budget and what are the sources for that accomplishment accordingly by the fiscal year. How much are allocated for education, research and extension. Who are the implementing authority and their procedure for planning as well sectors coordination with related department and how stimulate is their instrument and expertise’s.
Liabilities and transparency must be ensured according to the law by the relevant and proper implementing authority, to the private and public administration. The cost and outcome sources beneficiary and how it will beneficial to the country and for the public it will be work and future consequences.
As well active part of the ombudsman or department of anti corruption will ensure immediate steps taken independently and transparently where issue rises regardless of any kinds of influence with fair practice of law for the betterment of the country not for any individual.
Give full priority assure security as well proper guide line to the respective department for the full cooperation and failure to do that so, give proper cause and what to do and where to get those necessary instructional instrument without hassle in one stop service method for the researcher, journalist, civic society or any interested organization to collect information.
Practice of Constructive discussion and criticism. Not for unstable law and order situation for the political interest.
More involvement of expertise and educational instruments as well ensure all level people participation from the different society for the awareness against corruption and how to prevent by the law from the grass root level up to top.
Inspiring Team :)
No diré que soy novato como cronista, dado que llevo muchos años escribiendo en mis espacios propios y además, lo hago en Globedia.Com y TN & LA GENTE donde mantengo un espacio de noticias en cada uno. Quienes tenemos algo importante que decir o que opinar, no debemos callarnos ni dejar de transmitir al mundo lo que puede salvar la vida de muchas personas o tal vez, comentar alguna historia de vida en donde el amor y la alegría podría resultar de interés a muchos miembros de la comunidad nacional o internacional.
Aprovecho esta oportunidad que me brinda CNN para abrazarlos a todas y todos de corazón a corazón! Dios los colme de bendiciones!
First of all, today I want to shake each one of you, a fraternal embrace, heart to heart.
In our site, there are millions of cases that are never solved by the authorities in any country of the world.
Lack of empathy and sympathy for the people who in one way or another suffer injustice, pushed into an abyss.
But instead I trying alive through the great love of God, stretch my arms to steal a tear of happiness.
I just uploaded a true story, a case whose investigation has been entrusted to me.
I hope I get excited as excited as I remember those unforgettable moments for these people.
