SEOUL, South Korea (AP) — South Korean prosecutors on Wednesday indicted a man who slashed the U.S. ambassador in Seoul last month on charges of attempted murder.

Kim Ki-jong, 55, was also indicted Wednesday on charges of assaulting a foreign envoy and obstruction, according to an official at the Seoul Central District Prosecutors’ Office, who did not want to be named, citing department rules. South Korean law requires the trial to start within 14 days, and there is a possibility that it could start as early as next week, according to an official at the Seoul Central District Court, who didn’t want to be named, citing office rules. He said it was too early to comment on the potential penalties Kim could face.

Prosecutors have also been investigating whether Kim violated a controversial law that bans praise or assistance for North Korea. The court official said it was possible prosecutors may add such charges against Kim during the trial.

Police say Kim attacked Ambassador Mark Lippert with a knife during a breakfast forum on March 5. He suffered deep gashes on his face and arm and was treated at a Seoul hospital for five days.

Police say Kim chose Lippert as a target to highlight his opposition to ongoing U.S.-South Korean military drills. North Korea has angrily reacted to the drills, calling them an invasion rehearsal.

Anti-U.S. activists such as Kim have long blamed the presence of 28,500 U.S. troops stationed in the South as a deterrent to the North for the continuing split of the Korean Peninsula.

Watch as Robin McGraw and her foundation, When Georgia Smiled, give Jenesse Center, a domestic violence intervention program in Los Angeles that provides shelter for women and children, a much-needed makeover.

Robin, who is a leader nationally in raising domestic violence awareness, explains, “I wanted the women and children who come to this shelter to feel safe and comfortable when they take the first step to beginning their new lives.” So with the generous help of The Home Depot Foundation, The Mattel Children’s Foundation and Swing Set Solutions, they turned Jenesse Center into a safer, cleaner, more welcoming, playful, inspiring home for the women and children it serves.

We all know that Edison Bulbs suck more energy in comparison to the energy efficient LEDs, but somehow, LEDs fail to add the same ambience to the room as the Edison Bulbs. With time energy saving has become a priority in most of the households and due to which Edison Bulbs have taken a backseat.

Interestingly, a London-based design label Buster & Punch, has come up with a stylish way to have the best of energy saving LEDs and mood-enhancing Edison bulbs. The company has recently launched LED light bulbs that are almost identical to the Edison bulbs that we all love.

Buster & Punch states on its website that, “The resin light pipe at the center of the bulb is where all the magic happens,”. “It allows the bulb to create a subtle ambient light, whilst at the same time throw focused spot light onto tables and surfaces below.” Although the bulbs look like Edison bulbs, but they are much more energy efficient and last longer.

These bulbs are available in Buster & Punch’s wide range of metals, finishes, and bulb types. These new bulbs also have fittings available in rose copper, smoked brass, and steel, and the bulbs are also available in crystal, smoked, or gold.

All being said, these bulbs re-create the ambiance like the Edison bulb, but they cost a lot more than that. A single unit of these Buster Bulbs will come for a price of $42, and the ones with snobbish calf leather shades will cost additional $188.
