About CorpWatch
Our Mission
CorpWatch: Non-profit investigative research and journalism to expose
corporate malfeasance and to advocate for multinational corporate
accountability and transparency. We work to foster global justice, independent media activism and democratic control over corporations.
Our guiding vision is to promote human, environmental, social and worker rights at the
local, national and global levels by making corporate practices more
transparent and holding corporations accountable for their actions.
independent investigative researchers and journalists, we provide critical information
to foster a more informed public and an effective democracy.
We believe the actions, decisions, and policies undertaken and pursued by private corporations have very real impact on public life from individuals to communities around the world. Yet few mechanisms currently exist to hold them accountable for those actions. As a result, it falls to the public sphere to protect the public interest.
In many cases, corporate power and influence eclipses even the democratic political process itself as they exert disproportional influence on public policy they deem detrimental to their narrow self-interests. In less developed nations, they usurp authority altogether, often purchasing government complicity for unfair practices at the expense of economic, environmental, human, labor and social rights. Yet despite the very public impact of their actions and decisions, corporations remain bound to be accountable solely to their own private financial considerations and the interests of their shareholders. They have little incentive, nor requirement, for public transparency regarding their decisions and practices, let alone concrete accountability for their ultimate impact.
is part of a diverse global movement for human rights, social justice,
environmental sustainability, peace, corporate transparency and
We believe that all people deserve:
We oppose:
Finally, we support the
right of people, communities and countries to be compensated for human
rights violations, and environmental and economic impacts caused by
damaging corporate, government or multi-lateral institutional behavior.
Corporations must abide by international law and be directly
accountable to those directly impacted, whether a local community or a
national government to redress damage.
Since 1996, San Francisco Bay Area-based CorpWatch has been educating
and mobilizing people through the CorpWatch.org website, articles and
publications, and numerous action-campaigns. The organization is a project of the Tides Center
and it is guided by a six-member Executive Committee of our Advisory
Board. In addition, we are an affiliate member of Friends of the Earth International.
Throughout its history CorpWatch has provided journalists,
activists, policy makers, students and teachers with key informational
resources on issues related to corporate accountability.
The foundation from which the organization emerged and evolved was the book, The Corporate Planet: Ecology and Politics in the Age of Globalization, written by CorpWatch's founder Joshua Karliner, and published by Sierra Club Books in 1997.
The scope of our investigations reflects our commitment to pursuing issues of corporate accountability and malfeasance in any manifestation, anywhere in the world -- whether the rights in question are economic, environmental, human, political or social rights.
Human Rights, Economics, the Environment and Transparency
Corpwatch launched its first major shot across the corporate bow in 1997 when it blew the whistle on working conditions in Nikes operations in Vietnam, ultimately helping secure greater oversight of their factories and changes in their corporate practices.
In 1998, CorpWatch had the foresight to start investigating the Enron Corporation, three years before the companys collapse.
Our Climate Justice Initiative, organized from 1999-2002 around the CorpWatch report, Greenhouse Gangsters vs. Climate Justice, successfully redefined climate change as an environmental justice and human rights issue, and helped mobilize communities already adversely impacted by the fossil fuel industry.
In 1999, we broke the story of the United Nations growing
entanglement with corporations, known as the UN Global Compact.
published "Earth Summit.biz: The Corporate Takeover of Sustainable
Development," in collaboration with Food First Books in 2002.
We also co-produced five live one-hour radio broadcasts from the WTO Ministerial meeting and protests in Seattle in 1999 and from Cancun in 2003.
In May 2007 we exposed the human and environmental cost of gold mining with Barrick's Dirty Secrets: Communities Respond to Gold Mining's Impacts Worldwide.
In September 2007 we launched the Wiki project Crocodyl.org, in partnership with the Center for Corporate Policy and the Corporate Research Project.
In May 2009 we contributed to The True Cost of Chevron: An Alternative Annual Report, led by author Antonia Juhasz. This jointly-produced report documents negative impacts of Chevron's operations around the globe, in stark contrast to the message sent by the company's ubiquitous "Human Energy" advertising campaign.War & Disaster Profiteering: Afghanistan, Iraq and Katrina
In the spring of 2002 and 2003, CorpWatch began to track companies like Bechtel, Dyncorp and Halliburton, profiting out of the so-called "war on terrorism." This has led to our fielding several investigative journalistic teams to investigate the out-sourced reconstruction in Iraq. Some of the footage CorpWatch obtained in Iraq was used in Michael Moore's film Fahrenheit 9-11.
In May 2004, CorpWatch began a series of alternative annual reports on Halliburton, along with Global Exchange, HallibutonWatch and others. The first was dubbed Houston, We Have a Problem. The 2005 alternative annual report was titled, Houston, We Still Have A Problem, and one in 2006, Hurricane Halliburton: Conflict, Climate Change and Catastrophe. We published the fourth and final in the series in spring 2007, as Halliburton off-shored its headquarters Dubai in the United Arab Emerites, called Goodbye, Houston. In November 2004, CorpWatch released Iraq, Inc., A Profitable Occupation - the first book-length on-the-ground account of Year One of the occupation of Iraq. Authored by executive director Pratap Chatterjee, and published by Seven Stories Press, Matt Swibel of Forbes Magazine said, "Iraq, Inc. will introduce you to the entrepreneurs who really understand war profiteering and the price the rest of us will have to pay."
In May 2006, CorpWatch published Afghanistan, Inc., authored by Afghan-American writer Fariba Nawa, which details the bungled reconstruction effort in Afghanistan.
Turning our sights closer to home, next was Big, Easy Money: Disaster Profiteering on the American Gulf Coast by Rita J. King, published in August 2006, on the first anniversary of Hurricane Katrina's devastation.
We followed this up with Casualties of Katrina: Gulf Coast Reconstruction Two Years after the Hurricane in September 2007, written by Eliza Strickland and Azibuike Akaba.
In late April, 2008, we released a ground-breaking report on the
impact of U.S. intelligence and translation contracting, Outsourcing
Intelligence in Iraq: A CorpWatch Report on L-3/Titan. Authored by Pratap Chatterjee, we released the report on the
eve of L-3's shareholder meeting. We re-released this report in December 2008, with recommendations from Amnesty International.Crocodyl -- Collaborative Research On Corporations
In September 2007, we launched the Wiki project Crocodyl.org, in partnership with the Center for Corporate Policy and the Corporate Research Project.
Crocodyl.org puts the power of public oversight into the hands of
the people themselves. As a public platform for change and
accountability, it serves as a global resource to aggregate research
among NGOs, journalists, activists, unions, whistleblowers and academics
from from around the world in order to develop publicly available
profiles of the world's most powerful corporations, particularly
result is an evolving compendium of critical research, posted to the
public domain as an aid to activist campaigns and anyone working to
hold corporations increasingly accountable.

Nowadays I just tell people I live near Robin Hood. The fox with the bear friend, that's him. For those who might have heard of Derby, its reputation as a run-down backwater lumbering in Nottingham's shadow is too popular to avoid.
Yes, sheep are plentiful in the Peak District. Yes, Langley Mill is notorious as a stronghold for the British National Party and National Front. And yes, Rolls Royce still develops aeroplane engines in its Derby factories. However, it doesn't take a lot of digging to uncover some much more impressive features of Derbyshire. For now I'll focus on just one: the UNESCO Heritage listed Derwent Valley Mills.
The Derwent Valley Mills sit, as the name suggests, along the River Derwent. Derbyshire's longest river, the Derwent runs through the county from its source in Bleaklow, to finally join the River Trent at Derwent Mouth in Shardlow, South Derbyshire. So far, so ordinary.
The Derwent, however, deviated from obscurity in the 18th century, thanks to the technological developments of England's industrial pioneers. In 1721 the Lombe brothers built the Silk Mill next to the River Derwent in Derby city centre. True to its name, the Silk Mill was a factory that held machines for throwing silk, which could then be easily transported down the river.
Later in the century Richard Arkwright came to Derbyshire, developed the Spinning Frame – a machine for preparing cotton – and set up a factory in Cromford along with partner Jedediah Strutt. Situated next to the Derwent, Arkwright's device was powered by the running water of the river and hence became known as the Water Frame.
Following the success of Cromford Mill, Arkwright built factories in Cressbrook, Bakewell and Matlock Bath, all situated higher up the Derwent, and also expanded his operation into Lancashire, Staffordshire and Scotland.
Such success was noted by Arkwright's competitors, who allegedly spied on his methods and benefited from the information as they also built mills next to the Derwent – in Lea Bridge, Belper, Milford and Darley Abbey.
This industrial development formed the basis of the modern factory and was subsequently replicated the world over, hence Derwent Valley Mills' listing as a World Heritage Site in 2001. From the Silk Mill in Derby city centre, up to Masson Mills in Matlock Bath, the Derwent Valley Mills heritage site runs 24km through the county. Masson Mills actually continued to operate in its original function right up until 1992; it is now a clothing outlet and series of conference rooms.
Remember Arkwright's partner, Jedediah Strutt? His son Joseph operated for some time as a senior manager in the company. In 1840 Joseph gave the city of Derby its arboretum, which was Britain's first public park.
At the northerly tip of the UNESCO site, Matlock Bath sits on the edge of the Peak District National Park. Clocking over 22 million day visits per year, the Peak District is the second most visited national park in the world (after Mount Fuji). Pushing into Cheshire, Staffordshire and Yorkshire, the Peak District covers 555 square miles and was the first national park in the British Isles to be designated so. However, this gem is so awesome that it deserves its own post, so we'll leave it there for now.
Talk about grand claims…Britain's first public park, first national park and birthplace of the industrial revolution? Why doesn't Derbyshire get more recognition? Does it shoot itself in the foot by constructing shopping centres, cutting arts funding and mismanaging estates? Surely not…either way, it's not for me to say. What do you guys think?

When '55-56-57 Chevys were almost new, the hot tire setup for a fast car was a set of recapped Atlas Bucrons. Eventually tire technology evolved to the point where dedicated drag slicks were readily available. Decades after recap slicks made their debut, everything came full circle: Street tires with a tread pattern that offered the hook of a slick were developed. And with that came classes of competition where "street" tires with a tread pattern were required. The cheater slick was born. The cycle continued, and good old-fashioned slicks became the norm for almost all serious drag race applications. But then Quickest Street Car drag racing blossomed (thanks in no small part to Super Chevy Shows). Sticky street tire compounds were released. The tire wars heated up and before we knew it, tire technology had come full circle. And no, recaps aren't the hot ticket. Instead, we're blessed with what could be the most capable "cheater slicks" ever developed.
Why the fuss? That's easy. The rules for many categories of street car drag racing mandate a tire that has Department of Transportation (DOT) approval. In these categories, if you show up with slicks, you can't play. But the DOT requirement also places a heavy burden on the tire manufacturer. The company has to develop a tire that can effectively cope with an almost obscene amount of horsepower, but at the same time, it must pass a rigid set of requirements laid out by the DOT.
Given the rules concoction, the "street" tires used in street car drag racing might look exactly like slicks with a couple of grooves cut in them, but they have a number of subtle and perhaps not-so-subtle differences. One factor is weight. Two issues have an influence on the overall mass of a fastest street car tire, and they're both important. The first thing one has to keep in mind is the fact a typical fastest street car is quite often heavier than it's true drag race counterpart, even if the tire sizes are identical. It's not uncommon for an "Outlaw" Pro Street racer to tip the scales at a figure that's very close to 3,000 pounds, or more. That same car can have an ultimate performance that's on par with a current NHRA Pro Stock car, but the Pro car weighs 2,350 pounds.
There's more to this weight equation: Now, it's no secret that drag slicks for unlimited applications are often constructed to be as light as possible. That just isn't the case with a tire that is forced to pass a DOT requirement. A DOT tire must have a load range (and it must have that load range cast into the side of the tire). Using the Mickey Thompson 33 x 18.5-15LT shown in the accompanying photos as an example, the overall tire weight is 43 pounds. A similarly sized conventional M/T ET Drag slick tips the scales at 37 pounds. Where does the weight come from? Mickey Thompson points out that more belt material was required in the ET Street race tire. This made for a more rigid sidewall and of course, a heavier tire. In simple terms, the manufacturer is forced to build a more robust tire if it has to conform to heavier cars and DOT requirements. M&H Tire perhaps sums it up the best: "The manufacturer must offer the right product for the weight of the vehicle. That's the manufacturer's job."
Compounding is another point that must be addressed by the manufacturer. There are a couple of different avenues taken by companies who have entered the street car drag racing arena. For example, Hoosier compounds their Quick Time Pro street tires differently than their drag tires. M&H Racemaster has developed an entire new line of compounds just for their newest "HB" series of street car drag race tires. On the other hand, Mickey Thompson uses compounds that are identical to their most popular drag slick compound (M5). Mickey Thompson supplied a compound chart to show how their ET Drag slicks and ET Street tires compare which can be found on the last page of this article.

Congratulations to Lieutenant John Kapetanis for being named Deputy of the Year by the Alexandria Crisis Intervention Team. On Thursday, September 6, the Alexandria Crisis Intervention Team (CIT) held an awards program and cookout at Alexandria Police headquarters. Sheriff Dana Lawhorne presented Lieutenant Kapetanis with a plaque and recognized his outstanding CIT service and outreach. Mayor William D. Euille, Police Chief Earl Cook, JoAnne Munroe of the Department of Emergency Communications, and Liz Wixson of the Department of Community and Human Services also took part in the presentations. Others honored at the awards program were Officer Bennie Evans as CIT Officer of the Year, Officer Joe Kirby for CIT Intervention of the Year and Teresa Smith as CIT Department of Emergency Communications Employee of the Year. CIT was developed in collaboration with the Department of Community and Human Services, Alexandria Police Department, and Alexandria Sheriff's Office to help improve staff interactions and outcomes with persons with mental illness and substance use disorders. Alexandria's program includes staff from all first responding agencies to ensure that a comprehensive, City-wide approach is in place to assist those with mental illness. Lieutenant Kapetanis, a 32-year-veteran of the Sheriff's Office, is the Operations Commander of the Judicial Services Division based at the Alexandria Courthouse. When working with members of the public at the courthouse or in the field, he is able to notice when someone is exhibiting signs of stress and/or mental illness and he works to engage them in ways that are supportive and non-confrontational but firm and clear. He works effectively with other CIT member agencies to ensure that such people receive necessary treatment and services. Lieutenant Kapetanis has been a CIT member since June 2010, after graduating from Alexandria's first CIT course. More than 40 other deputies are also CIT members. Through their 40 hours of training, CIT officers and deputies learn skills such as suicide intervention, verbal de-escalation techniques, the role of the family in the care of a person with mental illness, and legal training in mental health and substance abuse issues. In addition to classroom instruction, CIT members participate in role playing exercises based on real-life scenarios and spend a day visiting mental health and substance abuse inpatient and outpatient treatment facilities where they have the opportunity to engage in one-on-one dialogue with mental health consumers.

The National Assembly of the Republic of Panama declared it the national flower of Panama on October 21, 1980, under the urgings of Miss María T.
The flower normally blossoms between July and October, although you may see it in flower at other times of year. Corresponding with its peak period to bloom, every September the village of Las Minas, in the province of Herrera, holds a Flower of the Holy Spirit Fair in honor of the plant, though other orchids are also on display. Orchidologists have identified some 12 varieties of the flower, also known as the Holy Ghost Orchid or Dove Orchid, in Las Minas.
Curiously, unlike most orchids that grow on trees, this flower is found at ground level, often on rocks, but always near very humid areas.

Even works in water-filled pipes!
Few tools turn massive jobs into small ones with the prowess of the Seeker 200 Video Inspection System. The 3' camera-tipped snake lets you peer into engine cylinders, behind walls, into vents, even water-filled pipes without first doing a major dismantle job. The camera focuses from 4" to infinity, with a 2x zoom and bright LED light. Convenient pistol grip has a full-color 2-3/8" LCD screen to give you a clear view in virtually any situation.
Reviewed by 1 customer
Best Uses
I haven't actually put this tool to use yet but did play with it. I have many uses in mind such as: Checking the sink main drain to see why water is not going down quickly enough. Inspect the house foundation where it meets the sill looking for openings that rodents can enter through. Finding small parts that roll under my work bench. Peering into cavities that I otherwise cannot access.
This will be miles ahead of my old method of a flashlight and inspection mirror.

Can someone enlighten me how you can activate the charms bar by accident!? The whole black bar, not just the hints.
I sometimes hit the top left hot corner by accident, but to active charms bar you got to go the right corners and swipe the mouse up the side of the screen. How can you do that by accident?
I use photoshop a lot and ive never managed to do that.
The only other time I sometime activate the charms hint by accident is by trying to click the show desktop button on the taskbar.
However, as i said, ive never activate the whole charms bar by accident.

Um maybe I change a color in the dialog and go to the layers dialog which I keep at the very bottom right. I detach the dialogs.
So when I go to the colors dialog, I activate the "hint" then I go straight to the layers down and there we go, full Charms is activated. I have done this for years, it is a habit and with windows 8 I need to move my mouse to the left to get the hint off, then go diagonal to the bottom right side of the screen.
Posted 28 November 2012 - 18:37
You can press the left mouse button,middle button, or any key that doesn't do anything in PS to get rid of the hint. Why not just move the dialog a little to the left?
Posted 28 November 2012 - 19:41
.. But ever since they allowed you to detach those dialogs, I built my own workspace and I like it that way.......

Vitor Belfort has openly admitted to prescribing to testosterone replacement therapy and the media and fans are split on whether or not it should be allowed. However, Belfort believes it only evens the playing field:
The TRT, the shot just gets you level in the system. So, the bottom line my level is always lower than a regular guy. I never go [over] the limit, the level. So, what I'm trying to do, I'm just trying to be fair in my career against my opponent. The TRT is just something my body cannot produce. I'm doing the treatment with doctors, with bloodwork, so everything's pretty black and white. But, all of guys are out there doing a lot of stuff but they don't get caught because they don't have blood.

"I think my brain is basically the same as it was when I was 20. [...] I don't see very well, at a conference I can't see the projections and I can't hear very well. But I think more now then when I was 20. The body can do what it wants.
I'm not the body. I'm the brain."

Olympians aren't the only ones donning all white this summer. Bloggers are rounding out the neutrals trend with plenty of the shade from head to toe and with a (not-so) wild mix of other washed out shades. Pairing a lot of the summer shade takes more work than the guests of a Sean Combs party would have you think. Check out how these bloggers rock their whites with ease.

Role of Bull Elephant.
Elephants enjoy a fairly unique family structure in terms of the role of the bull and the cow.In the elephant herd, the female elephant takes the lead, meaning that elephants are matriarch-headed. The bulls play a largely functional role, that of increasing the elephant population in his territory.

Elephant Life Cycle.
The life cycle of the elephant can be categorised into 3 main periods – the baby, the adolescent and the adult elephant. Like humans, each stage lasts for an extended period of time and very distinct developmental milestones characterise each level of maturity.

Four years ago the NJROTC program at Port St. Joe Jr./Sr. High School was nearly a casualty of district budget woes.
Four years later the ranks are bulging.
The NJROTC program had its annual inspection last week as the cadets demonstrated their skills and military manners and put on display the rapid growth of the program over the past four years under Lt. Commander Marty Jarosz (Ret.).
"We are growing steadily," Jarosz said. "In four years we have more than doubled our numbers and we have kids that want to do this but who can't fit it into their class schedule.
"We can't do the NJROTC program without a lot of support. Support from parents, from teachers, from other students. They accept NJROTC as part of the fabric of the high school and part of the fabric of the community. And that community is what this county stands for."
The growth of the program was at full attention much of last Tuesday morning under the watchful eyes of inspector Commander Michael Egan from the Naval Salvage and Diving Station in Panama City Beach.
As the school district considered cutting the program four years ago, there were 21 cadets enrolled in the program, slightly under the 10 percent threshold required of the U.S. Navy in sponsoring the program.
The Navy agreed to waive that requirement for one year, the school board maintained the program and today the ranks include 51 cadets, nearly 20 percent of the school's enrollment.
"I've watched them for months; they are here early and stay late, working on drills and around the school," said Principal Jeremy Knapp. "They are out in the community."
The annual inspection is part of a points-earning process that every NJROTC program undertakes each year. Points are earned for participating in drill competitions, community and school outreach projects and other activities.
The goal: to earn recognition as a "Distinguished Unit" or a "Unit Achievement Award", the two highest honors for a NJROTC program.
"We are too small to earn enough points to be a 'Distinguished Unit' but we'd like that 'Unit Achievement,'" Jarosz said. "We came up just a couple of points short last year.
"We are actually ahead of where we were last year. This is something you need to take seriously and they do. We've worked long and hard for this."
The inspection had several phases.
Egan, led by unit commander Javarri Beachum, reviewed the ranks, examining uniform and appearance and also asking cadets questions about the NJROTC program and their aspirations.
Cadets earning outstanding marks were recognized and congratulated personally by Egan.
"They did a great job today," Egan said. "The program, quite honestly, is one of the strongest I've seen. I know they are doing something right."
After individual and platoon inspections, the cadets broke into groups for drills.
Marching, parade formation, rifle drills, a platoon comprised entirely of females, one-by-one they marched in front of local dignitaries, parents, students, teachers and audience members.
The female platoon is another testament to the growth of the Port St. Joe program.
"We have all kinds in our program, from honors students to ESE students, male, female, minorities, they all have to do the same things," Jarosz said. "During the inspection there is an emphasis on the new cadets to show what they have learned and the seniors for their leadership."
After an hour, Egan pronounced the inspection a rousing success, praised Jarosz and the support the district has provided and marveled at the picture of the future standing at attention in front of him.
"This is our future," said Port St. Joe Mayor Mel Magidson. "I feel more confident about the future just looking at them."

If you have ever owned a car from the '50s, then you are probably aware of its need for better acceleration and inherent lack of braking prowess. Most, if not all, cars from the '50s were equipped with bulky drum braking systems. They provided only the most basic function, to stop. Today, however, with more companies creating disc brake upgrades, the old drum system is neither popular or safe.
Classic Performance Products is one of the companies which specializes in drum-to-disc brake conversions. We called on them to help us with 12-volt leader Audiobahn's '55 Chevy Nomad, which was weighed down with a couple thousand pounds worth of stereo equipment. These cars are already heavy, but the extra weight made the drum braking system a safety hazard.
We took the car to Ballistic Motorsports in Mission Viejo, California, for the installation. Having feared that the install would be time consuming and confusing, we were delighted when, after only two hours, we were on our way.
The front braking system looked exactly like the rear: a big drum. This system is not exactly up to today's standards for braking power and safety.
The first step was to remove the drum cover. This piece is what protects the components responsible for your braking.
Next, the retaining clips which hold the drum pads in place needed to be removed as well. Using a set of needle nose pliers, we carefully removed the clips and discarded them. We would not require these items with the new components.
Once the retaining clips had been removed, the shoes were taken off and discarded. The cotter pin was slipped off, and the wheel adapter was pulled. All of these components need to be removed all the way down to the bare spindle.
The backing plate was held on with four bolts along with the attached steering arm. Both of these parts needed to removed.
The new bearings did not come pregreased. Therefore we had to use a high-temperature grease to ensure every piece was lubricated. If this step were avoided, the bearings would seize up and fall apart.
