FILE - In this May 24, 2012 file photo, former U.S. Secretary of State Madeleine Albright smiles at the Smithsonian National Museum of American History in Washington. The names recently trimmed from Myanmar's blacklist read like a who's who of prominent diplomats, human rights campaigners and Asian-based journalists. After announcing this week it had cut a third of the names off its 6,165-person blacklist, the government took another step toward openness Thursday, Aug. 30, 2012, by publishing the names of more than 1,000 foreigners stricken from the notorious list. Among them are Albright, the late singer, activist and politician Sonny Bono, and former Philippine President Corazon Aquino. (AP Photo/Jacquelyn Martin, File) (Jacquelyn Martin, Associated Press)
