Ukraine put its police on high alert after dozens of armed pro-Russia men stormed and seized local government buildings in Ukraine's Crimea region early Thursday and raised a Russian flag over a barricade.
The renewed tension in this strategic peninsula that houses Russia's Black Sea fleet came as lawmakers in Kiev were expected to approve the new government, but also a day after clashes between pro- and anti-Russian demonstrators in Crimea's regional capital, Simferopol.
Russia has questioned the legitimacy of the new Ukrainian authorities after pro-Russian President Viktor Yanukovych fled last week, and it has accused them of failing to control radicals who threaten the Russia-speaking population in Ukraine's east and south, which includes the Crimean Peninsula.
The men occupying the local parliament building did not immediately voice any demands but threw a flash grenade in response to a journalist's questions. They wore black and orange ribbons, a Russian symbol of the victory in World War II, and put up a sign saying "Crimea is Russia."
The events unfolding in Crimea highlighted the divided allegiances between Russia and the West Ukraine after Yanukovych fled the capital, Kiev.
Ukraine's acting interior minister Arsen Avakov said on his Facebook page on Thursday that areas around the occupied buildings were being sealed off by police.
"Measures have been taken to counter extremist actions and not allow the situation to escalate into an armed confrontation in the center of the city," he said.
Phone calls to the Crimean legislature rang unanswered, and its website was down. Refat Chubarov, a local leader of the Tatar community that support the new authorities in Kiev, wrote on his Facebook page early Thursday that the two buildings were taken overnight by uniformed men.
Russian President Vladimir Putin put the military on alert for massive exercises involving most of the military units in western Russia, and the military announced measures to tighten security at the headquarters of Russia's Black Sea Fleet on the peninsula.
The maneuvers will involve some 150,000 troops, 880 tanks, 90 aircraft and 80 navy ships, and are intended to "check the troops' readiness for action in crisis situations that threaten the nation's military security," Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu said in remarks carried by Russian news agencies.
The move prompted a sharp rebuke from U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry, who warned Russia against any military intervention in Ukraine.
Russia denied the military maneuvers were connected to the situation in Ukraine, but the massive show of force appeared intended to show both the new Ukrainian authorities and the West that the Kremlin was ready to use all means to protect its interests.

How to ace your personal improvement plan |
| Print | |
Business tips |
Friday, July 12, 2013 |
BY TOM COX | BUSINESS TIPS CONTRIBUTOR Uh oh. You just got put on probation at work — your boss and HR gave you a "Personal Improvement Plan". The bad news is, you're now half-way to being fired. The good news is, you now have the opportunity to completely change the way people see you at work, and even boost your career. What's a Personal Improvement Plan?A Personal Improvement Plan is a halfway point to firing someone — usually because they cannot do their job, or cannot work well with others, or both. Most times, it is an honest attempt to help the employee improve. Sometimes, it is a formality just before firing, to shield the employer from a wrongful termination suit. Either way, if you've been handed a Personal Improvement Plan (PIP), your job is on the line. Here's how Sam handled his, and became a superstar. How to Handle It – MindsetHow you handle yourself during the PIP process will make or break your success. The most crucial aspect is your mindset. The most common reaction is the worst: to deny the legitimacy of the problem. Let's put that to rest: it doesn't matter if your boss made a mistake, it doesn't matter if somebody else messed up too, and it doesn't matter if somebody else did the same thing. If your reaction to the PIP is "I'm misunderstood, I didn't do anything wrong, and I'm not going to change" then you should quit before you're fired. It doesn't even matter, right now, if your boss is flat out wrong. When you get put on a PIP, all that matters is that your boss has positional power over you. That's the reality. It may not be fair, and if your PIP is based on flawed data, it's not reasonable. But it is so. There are three truths that are always true, and you deny them at your risk:
Even if you plan to completely change "the way things are" — you have to start here. The most ineffective people are ineffective because they deny one or more of these truths. They get so wrapped up in how things "ought to be" that they forget to, or fail to, deal with what is. Why a PIP is an OpportunityYour boss (and some of your other coworkers) may have formed a bad, and maybe a mistaken, opinion of you. You may have been pigeon-holed. Sam was. His boss felt Sam was too "risky" on his projects. Once Sam was labeled the "cowboy" all his decisions were presumed to be risky ones. Sam's prudent choices were overlooked, and his arguably more bold choices were assumed to be super risky. It was a bad reputation to have in his firm. Sam discovered this: the PIP gives you an excuse to behave in totally new ways — and other people will actually notice. During the first few weeks on your PIP, if you behave in new ways, people will actually notice. Done right, this can get you out of the negative pigeon-hole for good. What Not to Ask – People and ProofDon't ask your boss or HR who else thinks you're bad. It's not about personalities. What to Ask – BehaviorsDo ask for clarification on how to comply with the PIP. Sam was told he needed a peer to sign off on certain project decisions — but the list of decisions was incomplete and vague. Sam wisely asked for detail so he could be sure to comply — and wrote up a list of specific suggestions, making it easy for his boss to edit the list and give it back quickly. You also need to sniff out any vague or subjective language. If your PIP says you need to "get better," ask for a number or a metric, and suggest one — a 50% improvement on a quality metric, or "100% of key project decisions are signed off by a peer in writing before being acted on." And you need a list of which decisions are "key." Sam was given an incomplete PIP and no list of which tasks were "key." This could have blown up in his face, if he'd made a decision he felt wasn't "key" and someone else later decided it was. I told him he needed to get that list made explicit — and he needed to go the extra mile of drafting a suggested list. What to Tell OthersYour staff and co-workers will find out you're on a PIP. So, be the first to tell them. Use language like this — it focuses on how they can help, and casts you as a supportive participant, not a victim. Here's what Sam sent: Be sure to look on the sunny side of the PIP in all conversations with others. Everyone will expect you to dislike or resent it. This will make them — and especially most bosses — reluctant to talk about it, and they may "brace themselves" and expect a fight during every conversation about the PIP. Those won't be happy or constructive conversations. So you can pleasantly surprise your boss (and everyone else) by taking the positive attitude that you're going to use the PIP to improve yourself. Sam's boss nearly sabotaged him by giving him a vague and incomplete PIP — and then offering to clarify it "in a few weeks" — when Sam was making project decisions daily. It turns out, Sam's boss is an introvert who hated conflict, and who dreaded the PIP conversations. When Sam showed up being positive and pro-active, his boss was astonished, and eventually delighted that the conversations he'd been dreading were in fact positive and pleasant. For your PIP, tell your boss and yourself, "I'm committed to doing anything and everything I have to do, to make my work excellent." Locus of ControlYour "locus of control" is the location where you mentally imagine most of the control is, for a given situation. Some people think everything is luck — good or bad. Others think everybody else is powerful, that they themselves are powerless. Both these have an "external locus of control." This leads them to be passive and miss opportunities to influence outcomes. To be effective generally — and especially when you have a PIP in effect — you need to massively develop an "internal locus of control." I coached Sam to never say anything like "I was late because the traffic was bad." Instead he was to say "I was late because I failed to allow enough time for traffic — and I'll be more careful next time." In reality none of us have 100% control over our environments or our outcomes all the time. Maybe we average 50% control. The trick is, to be 100% focused on whatever is under our control. The person who has only 5% influence on an outcome — and is 100% focused on their share of that influence — will ultimately be far more effective. Having an "internal locus of control" is powerful for three reasons:
Read more about it here. You can take a Locus of Control self-test here. Sam's OutcomeSam was able to use his PIP as a wake-up call for himself, to re-think how he was working with his peers. He saw that he'd been leaving people out of the loop, making decisions without explaining them. By systematically seeking peer input and educating his peers on his thought processes, he ended up changing very few of his decisions — however his peers finally saw how he thought, and why he made the decisions he did. Their confidence in him shot up, and his boss soon heard about it. The PIP became Sam's opportunity to change his work and his relationships for the better. Yours could be too.

Investigation after drunk vicar fell over in the aisle at a wedding and had to be locked in VESTRY (where he could be heard shouting 'In the name of the Lord, I'm not drunk!')
- Rev Brian Taylor had to be ushered into sideroom after falling over
- Replacement had to take the wedding as he was locked in vestry
- Couple Chris John and Lori Collins told friends they still enjoyed the day
- The vicar has now been given a month's leave to 'deal with some issues'
By James Rush
An investigation is underway into a drunken vicar who had to be locked in the vestry after he fell over on his way into a church to conduct a wedding.
A replacement had to take the ceremony after Reverend Brian Taylor allegedly fell over in front of nearly 100 wedding guests,while it was believed he was drunk, and had to be ushered into the sideroom.
He could then apparently be heard shouting 'In the name of the Lord, I'm not drunk' from behind the door, while Chris John and Lori Collins were getting married at St George's Church, in Cwmparc, South Wales.
Reverend Brian Taylor could be heard shouting that he was not drunk from the vestry during the wedding at St George's Church (pictured), in Cwmparc
The vicar has has now reportedly been given a month's leave to 'deal with some issues', according to The Sun.
A Diocese of Llandaff spokesman told MailOnline: 'This is a very unfortunate incident and we are investigating what happened. We are sincerely sorry for any upset or inconvenience caused to all those at the service.'
The happy couple, both 24 and from nearby Treorchy, South Wales, spent more than £20,000 on the wedding.
The bride's mother Debbie Collins, 49, told The Sun said they would not have been able to get married if a replacement was not found.
She said: 'It is a funny story but it wasn't funny at the time.'
Usher Rhodri Jones said he saw the vicar stagger down the hill as he made his way to the service at the church.
The couple, who are currently on a three-week honeymoon, have apparently told friends they still had a 'wonderful day' (file picture)
He said: 'He walked past me like Jack Sparrow, tripped over the step into the church and fell through the door in front of 96 people.'
A friend of the groom meanwhile told the paper the couple, who were due to sign the register in the vestry, had to sign the book outside.
But the couple, who are currently on a three-week honeymoon, have apparently told friends they still had a 'wonderful day' and now found the event 'quite funny'.
Mr Taylor last night told The Sun he was unable to comment on the incident.

Problems with newborn hearing tests go back as far as 2010, a Ministry of Health investigation has found.
The inquiry was launched towards the end of last year after the ministry discovered irregularities in its national newborn screening programme, which began in 2007.
The investigation found eight screeners, out of a workforce of about 108, had not followed protocol. They had either screened the same ear of a baby twice, screened one ear followed by one of their own ears, or in some cases screened both their own ears instead of the baby's.
Four of the screeners at fault gave explanations including finding the job difficult, laziness, stress and not wanting to put families through the trouble of going through more testing.
The final report, released yesterday, said a small number of babies now aged between 2 and 3 were affected. This does not include babies who were in a special care unit or identified as being at risk of hearing loss, as they are covered by a different screening protocol.
The massive failings affected more than 2000 babies nationwide. If hearing loss goes undetected or is treated late, it may result in delayed speech, language and other development.
It is understood the eight screeners have lost their jobs, while 3500 babies have been offered rescreening.
Irregularities in the screening programme were detected between June and November at six district health boards - Auckland, Lakes, Bay of Plenty, Waitemata, Canterbury and Hutt Valley. Data from other boards was still being reviewed.
The final report includes 21 recommendations, such as a national database for quality monitoring, professional development and support for screeners, and clearer guidance on protocol.
Screeners do not need prior qualifications or experience. They need only to pass a two-week training course run by Canterbury University.
Ministry spokeswoman Marian Mortensen said it was still waiting on information from the Waikato and Hawke's Bay health boards. Until then, it would not be known if the problems were confined to the eight identified screeners.
Associate Health Minister Jo Goodhew said she expected the National Screening Unit would make implementing all of the report's recommendations a priority.
"I am confident that the recommendations of the report, once fully implemented, will strengthen service delivery and NSU oversight so that this situation is very unlikely to arise again in the future, and if it does then it will be able to be discovered and addressed very quickly."
Labour health spokeswoman Maryan Street said it was a real tragedy that the screeners at fault were not picked up earlier. The lessons the ministry should take from the report were that the screening programme needed to be adequately resourced and monitored, with staff who were trained properly and paid decent wages, she said.
More than a year after hospital staff failed to detect his daughter's hearing defect, Rawiri Blundell has learnt the "test" was a fake.
Daughter Addison's hearing was never tested at all when she was a newborn, with a Hutt Valley Hospital screener testing her own ears and faking the paperwork.
Addison, now 1, was diagnosed with congenital hearing loss late last year, a condition that should have been picked up routinely within days of her birth.
She cannot hear or speak, and the delay in diagnosis may significantly affect her development.
Revelations that Addison's test was a forgery were contained in the Ministry of Health's report into nationwide failures in the newborn hearing tests published yesterday.
Mr Blundell said the report had left him angry and struggling to understand why anyone would fake results for a newborn baby.
"The behaviour from some of the screeners was simply unacceptable. You can be overworked and underfunded, but they need to have some professional integrity."
While the Hutt Valley District Health Board had been great in helping Addison, he felt it should have told him her test was faked. "It is frustrating that they weren't 100 per cent upfront." Addison was one of 176 babies incorrectly screened at Hutt Hospital. She is the only baby caught up in the testing scandal who is known to have a hearing problem.
She is scheduled to have a state-funded cochlear implant this year, and her parents are trying to raise another $50,000 to cover the expense of a second implant. She will have years of state-funded speech therapy to bring her up to speed with other children.

E-discovery Rules Still Causing IT Headaches
Many say the new archiving guidelines fail to account for evolving technologies.
Computerworld - Many IT shops have spent months working to refit corporate systems so they comply with year-old changes to the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure, even as some executives say the revisions arent clearly defined.
However, some IT executives who complained about the rules did acknowledge that the FRCP modifications have forced them to make positive changes to corporate data-retention policies.
The revisions, which took effect on Dec. 1, 2006, require that opposing sides in a federal lawsuit meet within 99 days of its filing to determine what electronic data must be produced and in what format. Failure to comply could lead to fines or a prison sentence.
The e-discovery rules have been created and are enforced by the U.S. Supreme Court and are often followed in state courts as well.
IT staffers at Webcor Builders Inc. have been struggling to understand the ambiguous rules while simultaneously working to determine where all relevant data resides and how it can be accessed quickly in case of litigation.
Gregg Davis, CIO at the San Mateo, Calif.-based construction firm, contended that the rules fail to take into account evolving storage technologies.
The new rules require that electronic data be in its native format, he said. This is easy to achieve when it comes to e-mail, which was the provisions main target. But it gets very murky when it comes to propriety databases and homegrown applications.
There are still a lot of questions around what is digital storage and e-discovery, Davis added. The [revised] rules have changed the game, and we are [being forced to] think and rethink where things are stored.
For example, he noted that Webcor still isnt sure whether images and documents on copy machine hard drives and print servers fall under the revised guidelines.
The latest revisions prompted Webcor to re-evaluate its overall data- retention policies and schedule quarterly meetings of executives from its IT and legal operations to discuss FRCP issues, Davis said. The company also tweaked its Symantec Enterprise Vault archiving tool to make sure data is available when its needed.
Davis recounted some questionable demands from opposing attorneys in some recent litigation in state court. One of them asked that Webcor buy his client software that could help it read the contractors Oracle database. Fulfilling such a request could prove very costly, said Davis, adding, This is why [FRCP] is a new slippery slope.
Laura Dubois, an analyst at IDC, said the FRCP changes are forcing companies to significantly increase spending on backup applications. The research firm predicts that e-mail archiving application sales will grow from $631 million in 2007 to $1.37 billion in 2011, she noted.

You will have to forgive me for being cynical Chris, but it doesn't matter whether or not the public gallery is packed to the rafters, the full Tory Whip will be on and the Allocations Document and probably the Hockley Area Action Plan will be passed with a large majority no matter what arguments anyone puts forward. It's what the ruling elite want and what they want they get no matter what their constituents, who elected them and who pay them, think. They know best, we just ignorant plebs.
Christine, you are very probably right re the Allocations Document. Though there have been meetings on this in the past where I have been very glad to have Rawreth parish Councillors in the public gallery to give me moral support! – for example
But the car parking issue is a different matter. There may only be a handful of votes in it, 8 Tories are already defying the party whip on this and a string showing in the public gallery could very easily sway two or three.
Despite a number of Councillors making some critical remarks about the RDC lack of effective public consultation an a tow the party line Inspector report – all the usual Tory Whip suspects managed to
get the plan through tonight.
A gallant effort too on Saturday afternoon parking charges but again the Whip ensured a 19 – 14 vote win
to charge on Saturday all day (closer this time Oz -
I live in hope of a Rayleigh Spring ).
I have to acknowledge the Tory (Toby Mountain)he showed some guts in leading the anti-motion in
defiance of the regime that orchestrates this Council.

NEW YORK (CNNMoney.com) -- One in five licensed drivers -- some 38 million Americans -- lack the knowledge necessary to pass a written driving test, and even more are distracted while driving, according to a survey released Thursday.
The annual GMAC Insurance National Drivers test polled 5,202 licensed drivers from 50 states and the District of Columbia with a 20-question test derived from state department of motor vehicles exams. A passing grade was 70% or better. The survey also asked additional questions about distracting habits such as texting while driving.
Overall scores dropped from a year ago. Licensed drivers posted an average score of 76.2% versus 76.6% in 2009.
"It's discouraging to see that overall average test scores are lower than last year," said Wade Bontrager, senior vice president of GMAC Insurance, in a prepared statement.
Nearly three out of four couldn't identify safe following distances and some 85% incorrectly responded to questions about what to do when approaching a steady yellow light. This signals that licensed drivers lack knowledge of fundamental road rules, GMAC Insurance said.
Test performance varied widely by region. Drivers in the Midwest scored 77.5% on average, the highest among all regions, and had the lowest failure rates at 11.9%. Conversely, the Northeast scored the worst with an average score of 74.9% and had the highest failure rate of 25.1%.
Drivers in Kansas topped the nation with an 82.3% average score, while New Yorkers were last on the list with a score of 70%.
Even more alarming is that Americans are increasingly multi-tasking while behind the wheel, the study found. About 25% of those surveyed admitted to driving while talking on a cell phone, eating, or adjusting their radios or iPods.
While only 5% of drivers said they texted while driving, Bontrager said that the "surprisingly low" number is still higher than it ought to be, adding that drivers may not have responded honestly to this question.
"The really sad thing is that you see [texting while driving] more and more in young drivers," said Bontrager. "They are not only the least experienced, but also need to pay the most attention to the road."
According to Bontrager, historic data supports that women tend to have fewer accidents than men, but the survey found that they were more likely to engage in distracting activities while driving than their male counterparts. And women also scored nearly four percentage points lower on the overall test than men, who averaged a score of 78.1%.
Although complete knowledge of the rules of the road won't shield drivers from all accidents, being informed helps to ensure that they are more prepared to deal with unexpected events, Bontrager said.
"An informed driver is a safer driver, period," he said.

Idea of land transfer tax gains traction in Mississauga
Despite realtor opposition, city council resistance seems to be softening to Mayor Hazel McCallion's campaign for a new revenue source.
Comments | ? |

Share via Email
Despite efforts by Mississauga's real estate board to head off any talk about a land transfer tax, Mayor Hazel McCallion may be winning council support for the lucrative idea.
Last month McCallion was the lone voice advocating strongly for a city land tax similar to Toronto's, payable by property purchasers. But opposition seems to be softening as council grapples with a $1.5 billion infrastructure deficit, user fee hikes and an unfunded LRT line being planned for an estimated $1.5 billion.
At Wednesday's council meeting, a letter was received from the Mississauga Real Estate Board imploring council not to move forward with such a tax. It said an Ipsos Reid poll commissioned by the Toronto Real Estate Board showed 74 per cent of Toronto residents thinking of buying a house in the next two years were more likely to purchase in the suburban cities to avoid the city' land transfer tax.
"With any poll, it depends who you ask," said Councillor Pat Saito, during a break in the meeting. "Depending on how you phrase the question, you could get a totally different answer."
Last month, councillors asked staff to come back with a report on the pros and cons of bringing in a tax they estimate would add $74 million of annual revenue to the city's coffers.
Saito dismissed the real estate board's information, saying she agrees with McCallion's effort to study instituting a tax. Councillor Jim Tovey also took issue with the poll statistics, suggesting that it's important to consider who funded the survey. "If you're going to use data, it's got to be empirical data. If you look at Toronto and how much property values have gone up in Toronto (despite the tax) … they've still gone up considerably."
According to city staff, in 2012 only $27.6 million of the $100 million needed to renew the city's aging infrastructure was raised through property taxes. The land transfer tax could, over time, single-handedly wipe out the infrastructure deficit.
McCallion told the Star Wednesday that council needs more authority to add new sources of revenue because it can't rely solely on property taxes any more. "The (land) transfer tax is one because it's in operation in Toronto, and it's raised a considerable amount of money."
Councillor Nando Iannicca told the Star he's still dead-set against the idea. "To me, the reason for it is simple: a drowning man will even reach for the tip of a sword."
He says he understands Mississauga is desperate for revenue, but that the land transfer tax as fundamentally unfair.
"What service does the resident get? New pipes into the home when they buy it? No, they get the old ones that were already there. It's a tax on a lifestyle choice, the desire or need to move. It's regressive and unfair."

A South Dakota attorney who has been representing convicted killer Donald Moeller in state court has filed a stipulation of dismissal in a federal case over whether South Dakota's one-drug capital punishment procedure is constitutional.
Moeller is scheduled to be executed in late October or early November in the 1990 killing of 9-year-old Becky O'Connell.
Attorney Mark Marshall wrote in his filing Tuesday that the matter is dismissed with prejudice based on a federal rule of civil procedure. Marshall had previously been listed as an interested party in the case but is now listed as one of Moeller's attorneys.
A response by the Little Rock, Ark.-based federal public defender's office that has been representing Moeller in the case was filed under seal.
Neither would comment on the filing.
