Very experienced Speech Therapist - Michele has really helped my son
By Claire S on 20/02/2013 3:34:38 PM
Yes, I would recommend this business to a friend!
I had been to three speech therapists in the north shore region of Sydney before finding Michele's mobile speech therapy business. I wish I had found her first. Michele seems to specialise in literacy and helping kids catch up on words, reading and pronunciation if they are a bit behind, like my child was. My son is 4 years old but prior to seeing michele was speaking (...) Read more

Hagel Gives Salute, Gets Hug From Israel's Barak
Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel, lambasted by fellow Republicans for his stance on Israel, received a bear hug from Israeli Defense Minister Ehud Barak on Tuesday.
Mr. Barak, who has made more visits to the Pentagon in recent years than any other defense minister, held his first visit with Mr. Hagel Tuesday. Mr. Barak is expected to step down as Israel defense minister when Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu forms a new government. But Mr. Barak has continued to regularly visit the Pentagon as Mr. Netanyahu builds his coalition.
It was also the first honor welcome at the Pentagon for Mr. Hagel, and he did a bit of improvising, offering Mr. Barak a salute as the minister got out of his car.
During Mr. Hagel's difficult confirmation process, Republican senators accused him of being insufficiently supportive of the Israeli government and supportive of direct negotiations with Hamas, the militant Palestinian group. Mr. Hagel denied those accusations, and promised to have close relations with Israel.
Israeli officials have worked to ensure there are no hard feelings with Mr. Hagel from the confirmation fight. After Mr. Hagel's confirmation, he was welcomed to office by Michael Oren, Israel's ambassador to the U.S. Mr. Oren, who attended meetings at the Pentagon on Tuesday, issued a statement after Mr. Hagel's approval by the Senate, saying he was sure that ties between the two nations "will grow stronger still as our countries continue to meet common challenges to our security."

EDMONTON - The city is asking Edmontonians for suggestions on the best ways to create more infill housing in mature neighbourhoods. Over the next few months, the Evolving Infill project will consult people to find out how to respect their desires while making it easier to redevelop older communities, urban planning manager Peter Ohm said Friday.
"Infill really is an opportunity to revitalize a neighbourhood ... (but) there are sometimes questions about what the need is. The impact is sometimes perceived as negative."
The focus is on boosting density in communities built between the Second World War and 1990, when lots were often larger than they are today.
Edmonton's 2010 municipal plan calls for at least 25 per cent of the city's new homes to be built in mature areas to help reduce sprawl, up from the current 15 to 20 per cent.
The benefits of growing "up and in as well as out" include controlling costs by using existing infrastructure, and bringing in young families to boost the population and amenities in an old neighbourhood, Ohm said.
Incentives and a streamlined rezoning process are among the possibilities for encouraging this development, he said.
However, some residents are concerned new structures will be too big, won't match existing homes, or will lead to increased traffic or crime, he said.
The city is seeking feedback online at engagingedmonton.ca, holding public forums Dec. 7 and Jan. 9, and training people to host their own discussion groups.
Coun. Scott McKeen said he's happy people are being consulted on the issue.
"During the (election) campaign, I certainly heard a lot of concerns about infill. I don't think all of it was warranted," he said.
"I have seen designs that were mind-blowing. They're very cool. They don't disrupt the streetscape ... There's a lot of latitude to do some interesting, slightly higherdensity homes."

Netherlands tests automated-energy homes
Two new housing developments in Breda, the Netherlands, will serve as a two-year pilot project to see whether a home decked out in smart-energy tech with access to multiple energy sources, not just the electric grid, is the answer to energy savings.
Through a partnership with Netherlands grid operator Enexis, power company Greenchoice, and housing developer Heja, more than 300 homes have been built incorporating the latest energy-saving technologies. The pilot program, called Jouw Energie Moment (Your Energy Moment), could determine how people in the Netherlands choose to handle home energy management and building design going forward.

Bill Maher wants us to 'stop apologizing'
Let's get this out of the way: Bill Maher is an obnoxious cheap-shot artist whose overwhelming smugness is nauseating to people all over the political spectrum. But in his latest New York Times op-ed, has Maher redeemed himself?
In "Please Stop Apologizing," the "Real Time" host argues that we need to take a break from what he sees as a culture of offense-taking that's ruining our discourse:
When did we get it in our heads that we have the right to never hear anything we don't like? In the last year, we've been shocked and appalled by the unbelievable insensitivity of Nike shoes, the Fighting Sioux, Hank Williams Jr., Cee Lo Green, Ashton Kutcher, Tracy Morgan, Don Imus, Kirk Cameron, Gilbert Gottfried, the Super Bowl halftime show and the ESPN guys who used the wrong cliché for Jeremy Lin after everyone else used all the others. Who can keep up?
[...] If it weren't for throwing conniption fits, we wouldn't get any exercise at all.
I have a better idea. Let's have an amnesty — from the left and the right — on every made-up, fake, totally insincere, playacted hurt, insult, slight and affront. Let's make this Sunday the National Day of No Outrage. One day a year when you will not find some tiny thing someone did or said and pretend you can barely continue functioning until they apologize.
We're right with Maher — down with fake outrage! Down with political nit-picking and point-scoring and all the other ways people have of distracting us from real issues!
Except that, a lot of the time, racism is a real issue. Maher glides over that, preferring to pretend that all offense taking is the same. Robert DeNiro makes a joke about white privilege? Rush Limbaugh calls women who use birth control "sluts"? Exactly the same thing. Don't be so offended!
Listen, a lot of the insincere anger in this country is totally annoying. But to argue that because of that we need to just accept every crappy, insulting opinion our public figures spew — to argue, in other words, that best way to get rid of racism and sexism and homophobia is just to ignore it? Well, the political outrage machine isn't the only thing that's insincere.

- Medicare Pays Billions for Poor Nursing Home Care
- Slightly Increased Cancer Risk From Fukushima Disaster: WHO
- New Program Helps Students Get Exercise
- Lye-Injured Vermont Woman Receives Face Transplant
Here are some of the latest health and medical news developments, compiled by the editors of HealthDay:
Medicare Pays Billions for Poor Nursing Home Care
Nursing homes that failed to meet quality of care standards received $5.1 billion in payments from Medicare in 2009, according to a report released Thursday by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services' inspector general.
In some cases, the failure to meet those standards resulted in dangerous and neglectful conditions for patients, the Associated Press reported.
The investigators estimated that for every one in three times a patient was admitted to a nursing home that year, they ended up in facilities that did not meet the basic care requirements stipulated by the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS).
In one out of five nursing home stays, patients' health issues weren't addressed in their care plans. In other cases, patients received therapy they didn't require. The investigators said this benefited the nursing homes financially because they were reimbursed at a higher rate by Medicare, the AP said.
"These findings raise concerns about what Medicare is paying for," according to the Office of Inspector General's report.
It was based on medical records from 190 patient stays at nursing homes in 42 states. The stays lasted at least three weeks. That sample represents about 1.1 million patient stays at nursing homes nationwide in 2009, the most recent year for which data was available, the AP reported.
The investigators recommended that CMS tie Medicare payments to nursing homes' abilities to meet basic care requirements, and also said the agency needs to tighten its regulations and improve its oversight.
CMS agreed that it should consider linking payments to the quality of care provided at nursing homes, and also said that it is reviewing its regulations to improve enforcement at the facilities.
"Medicare has made significant changes to the way we pay providers thanks to the health care law, to reward better quality care," Medicare spokesman Brian Cook said in a statement to AP. "We are taking steps to make sure these facilities have the resources to improve the quality of their care, and make sure Medicare is paying for the quality of care that beneficiaries are entitled to."
Slightly Increased Cancer Risk From Fukushima Disaster: WHO
The slightly increased risk of cancer among people exposed to the highest doses of radiation during the 2011 nuclear plant meltdown in Japan is so small that it likely won't be detectable, a World Health Organization report says.
The agency asked a group of experts to assess the heightened risk of various cancers among people at the epicenter of the Fukushima Dai-ichi nuclear plant disaster, the Associated Press reported.
There were meltdowns in three reactors at the plant after the March 11, 2011 earthquake and tsunami. Radiation was released into the surrounding air, soil and water.
The experts estimated that people in regions most affected by radiation from the plant had a 4 to 7 percent increased risk of developing cancers, including leukemia and breast cancer. Those most hit by radiation would have about a 1 percent increased risk, the AP reported.
"These are pretty small proportional increases," said Richard Wakeford, of the University of Manchester in the U.K., one of the report authors.
"The additional risk is quite small and will probably be hidden by the noise of other (cancer) risks like people's lifestyle choices and statistical fluctuations," he told the AP. "It's more important not to start smoking than having been in Fukushima."
New Program Helps Students Get Exercise
A new partnership to encourage schools to get more creative in helping students get their recommended amounts of daily exercise will be announced Thursday by Michelle Obama.

Bill Passes to ID Fathers of Babies Born to Underage Mothers
Posted: 9:59 AM Jan 31, 2013
Reporter: The Associated Press
A bill that passed the Mississippi House Wednesday is aimed at identifying and prosecuting those who impregnate underage girls.
House Bill 151 would require physicians or midwives to collect umbilical cord blood when a baby is born to a mother who's younger than 16 and the mother doesn't reveal the father's name.
House Judiciary B Committee Chairman Andy Gipson says a DNA test, using the cord blood, could determine who the father is. He says if the father is an adult, authorities could pursue statutory rape charges.

Autobiography of Red Cloud: War Leader of the OglalasEdited by R. Eli PaulA brilliant military strategist, Red Cloud honed his skills against his tribe's traditional enemies—the Pawnees, Shoshones, Arikaras, and Crows—long before he fought to close the Bozeman Trail. Here, for the first time in print, is Red Cloud's "as-told-to" autobiography, where he shares the story of his early years. This manuscript—which has rested ignored for decades at the Nebraska State Historical Society—brings us closer than the historical record has yet allowed to understanding the life of one of the Sioux's greatest war leaders. 234 pages Read the

FrontierSoldier: An Enlisted Man's Journal of the Sioux and Nez Perce Campaignsby William F. ZimmerEdited by Jerome A. Greene"Not many enlisted men
recorded their adventures in Indian warfare. Still fewer actually kept a
journal to lend immediacy to their observations. Frontier Soldier is such a journal, by a literate
private who left his story of plains warfare in a chronicle rich in
detail. It is the richer for the annotations of Jerome A. Greene, whose
understanding of the campaigns in which Zimmer marched is surpassed by few
historians." paper, ISBN 0-917298-55-1, $15.95 More About This Title |
Legacy: New Perspectives on the Battle of the Little BighornEdited by Charles E. Rankin"As a glaring media
spotlight continues to play on General Custer and the Battle of the Little
Bighorn, here is a truly outstanding contribution to knowledge and
understanding. In a superbly organized symposium in 1994, an array of
talented specialists offered new findings and fresh perspectives. Their
presentations are here assembled in a finely crafted book that sheds new
light on both history and legend. It is certain to be counted among the
few works basic to perceiving the context, the event, and the legacy of
the Little Bighorn." In this collection of essays from the 1994 Little Bighorn Legacy Symposium, an astounding array of scholars discuss the battle's context, historical significance, and cultural impact from both white and Native American perspectives. Contributors include Richard A. Fox, Jr., Paul Andrew Hutton, Edward T. Linenthal, and Richard S. Slotkin. Essays examine such diverse topics as the environmental context of the northern plains, new archaeological discoveries about the battle, Custer in art and the movies, and the battle's symbolic legacy. 384 pages, color and black-and-white illus.,

Traveler's Guide to the Great Sioux War: The Battlefields, Forts, and Related Sites of America's Greatest Indian Warby Paul L. HedrenWaged over the glitter of Black Hills gold, the Sioux War of 1876-77 transformed the entire northern plains from Indian and buffalo country to the domain of miners, cattlemen, and other Euramerican settlers. Keyed to official highway maps, this richly illustrated guide leads the traveler to virtually every principal landmark associated with the war, from Fort Phil Kearny where the Sioux besieged soldiers sent to guard the Bozeman Trail in the 1860s to Fort Buford, the site of Sitting Bull's surrender in 1881. 128 pages, maps, illus. |

Marathon bombings affect local race's policiesMADISON- Saturday thousands of people will take part in the Crazylegs Classic in Madison, but because of the recent bombings at the Boston Marathon there have been some changes made. University of Wisconsin officials said that while the policies may be new to Crazylegs, they should be familiar to Badgers fans who have attended any recent UW sporting event. Storage facilities are not available for checking prohibited items. Items left at gates will be disposed of accordingly. "I think it's good," Peter Stefaniak, who ran the Boston Marathon this year and has run Crazylegs in the past, said. Items permitted: bags no larger than 8.5" x 11", binoculars, cameras, blankets, jackets, umbrellas, items related to a medical condition, chairbacks (not more than 16" wide), and diaper bags (with child).

CNN has a big problem: its ratings are dropping. Big time. A New York Times article this week pointed out that CNN's main hosts have lost almost 50% of their viewers over the past year.
And while CNN's viewership is plummeting, its competitors are gaining viewers. Several FOX News hosts have registered year-over-year viewership gains in the range of 25-50%. And lest you think the drop in CNN's viewership is primarily the result of demographics or political preferences, CNN is even being beat out at certain hours by MSNBC and CNN's lightweight news channel, HLN.
On the internet, however, CNN has arguably managed to become one of the most savvy users of social media in the news industry. A number of its hosts are some of the most engaged television personalities on Twitter, and the @cnnbrk account it purchased counts nearly 3m followers. It runs a site for citizen journalists called iReport, as well as a network of blogs. Comments and content culled from iReport, its blogs and social media hubs are often featured on-air.
Given all this, one might think that CNN sees social media as a boon. But that's surprisingly not the case; CNN sees social media as its biggest threat. At the Bloomberg BusinessWeek's Media Summit New York in March, CNN U.S. president Jonathan Klein told attendees of his keynote that "the competition I'm really afraid of are social networking sites." Why? They're "an alternative that threatens to pull people away from us."
For a news organization that Klein called "number one by a mile in digital", CNN's fear of social media is somewhat ironic, if not entirely paradoxical, especially given how engaged CNN is through social media channels. But Klein's fear does highlight an inconvenient truth for news organizations: social media isn't a panacea. Social media's staunchest advocates urge news organizations to embrace social media, but it's hard to ignore the fact that CNN's extensive social media presence isn't doing anything to stem the tide of viewership declines.
One could argue that CNN's Klein is right; that social media is simply pulling many CNN viewers away from their televisions. But unfortunately Klein's fear of social media is somewhat misguided. CNN's viewership numbers vis-à-vis its competitors make it clear: CNN has no reason to fear social media. Instead, it should fear the most likely cause of its decline: a product that consumers find hard to see relevance in.
Jay Rosen, a journalism professor at NYU Arthur L. Carter Journalism Institute, has some ideas. As does Politico's Michael Calderone. Yet CNN's Klein is loathe to fundamentally change CNN's product, as Calderone notes:
Jon Klein, the network's president, has consistently defended its down-the-middle news strategy, despite the increasingly large ratings leads opened up by MSNBC and particularly Fox, with their ideological slants and big personalities.
Perhaps CNN shouldn't become a partisan voice that's heavier on personality and lighter on substance; I certainly don't have the answers for CNN. But if Klein truly fears social media more than CNN's competitors -- and their products -- CNN has a real problem. That's because the first step in fixing a product is to admit that it's flawed. If CNN puts its head in the sand and believes that viewers are flocking elsewhere because of social networks, it will never get around to admitting that its product is coming up short.
The good news for CNN is that 2009 was its most profitable year ever. It's therefore obviously doing something right, and will realistically have some time to figure things out, a luxury many other traditional news organizations (namely newspapers) don't have. But if CNN continues to worry about Facebook and Twitter more than it does competing television news networks, it may not have that luxury for too long.

Former Police Officer Accused of Robberies
COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. (AP) — A former Iowa police officer is accused in a string of robberies along Colorado's Front Range and in Colorado Springs over the past year.
Scott Brasselero, formerly of Sioux City, Iowa, is charged with two robberies in Colorado Springs. One was at the First Bank and the second was at a pharmacy inside a Safeway grocery store. Brasselero is also accused of crimes in Castle Rock, Arapahoe County and Pueblo. According to KKTV-TV, most of the robberies were sporadic over a 13-month period.

A coalition of conservation, wildlife and public health groups in the Gulf region and in Alaska filed notice yesterday that they plan to appeal a District Court decision to the D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals. The groups had filed suit in August of 2012 to compel the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to comply with the Clean Water Act in preparing and publishing the list of dispersants eligible for use in oil spill response.
(U.S. Air Force Photo / Tech. Sgt. Adrian Cadiz)
The National Contingency Plan governs responses to discharges of oil and hazardous substances. The Clean Water Act requires EPA to identify the waters in which dispersants and other spill mitigating devices and substances may be used, and the quantities that can be used safely, as part of EPA's responsibility for preparing and publishing the National Contingency Plan. But EPA currently fails to include this required information in its list of eligible dispersants under the National Contingency Plan. This meant that during the 2010 BP Deepwater Horizon disaster, 1.83 million gallons of dispersants were released into the ocean without prior scientific study and evaluation of the toxicity of those dispersants and any understanding of whether those dispersants were safe for the Gulf of Mexico, particularly in the unprecedented quantities that were used. Research in the aftermath of that disaster suggests that indeed they were not safe.
The May 7, 2013 District Court decision dismissed the coalition's suit because the court reasoned that EPA initially made its decision not to identify waters and safe quantities for eligible dispersants—as required by the Clean Water Act—back in the 1980s and 1990s. In the court's view the groups should have challenged the decision when it was first made and were too late to claim violations of the Clean Water Act now. This interpretation of the law allows an agency to continue violating clear statutory mandates so long as these violations were not caught and corrected within the first six years of their occurrence.
In addition to appealing this decision, the coalition is exploring other legal options. The groups filed a rulemaking petition with EPA in October 2010 calling on EPA to set a toxicity standard, require dispersant manufacturers both to improve testing of their products for toxicity and to disclose the ingredients of the dispersants as a condition of allowing the product to be eligible for use in response to spills.That rulemaking has been expected for years but has yet to be released.
Public interest environmental law firm Earthjustice represents the Louisiana Shrimp Association, Florida Wildlife Federation, Gulf Restoration Network, Louisiana Environmental Action Network, the Alaska-based Cook Inletkeeper, Alaska Community Action on Toxics, Waterkeeper Alliance, and Sierra Club in this action.

Disclosure of Fracking Chemicals: The Administration is calling on industry to be more transparent about the use of fracking chemicals. Leading by Example: In April, DOI will hold a series of regional public meetings to discuss the potential for expanding shale gas production on Federal lands. These events will provide a forum to develop a framework for responsible production on public lands. Research: The Federal government will conduct research to examine the impacts of fracking on water resources. At Congress' direction, EPA will continue with its study of fracturing impacts on drinking water and surface water, and DOE will likewise sponsor research on these issues.
The recent growth in hydraulic fracturing technology for the extraction of natural gas from shale formations has been a controversial issue in the US. In June the New Jersey Legislature [official website] completely banned hydraulic fracturing [JURIST report], although it was largely just a symbolic gesture since New Jersey sits over a very small portion of shale gas. Earlier that month, the New York attorney general filed a complaint against the EPA for failing to study the impact of fracking [JURIST report]. Fracking has also been controversial internationally. In May, France's lower house, the National Assembly [official website, in French], approved a bill [TA Bill No. 658, materials, in French; JURIST report] to prohibit the drilling of gas and oil through hydraulic fracturing and to repeal hydraulic fracturing licenses granted to companies.
The main aim of the [CAT] was to eradicate safe havens for persons who commit, order, or participate in acts of torture worldwide. States parties to the Convention, including Canada, have a legal obligation to arrest all persons suspected of torture with the aim of bringing them to justice. There is plenty of evidence that President Bush authorized enhanced interrogation methods against suspected terrorists, some of which clearly amount to torture, such as waterboarding.
Calls for the investigation or arrest of former president Bush have largely been rejected. In February, the CCR and the European Center for Human Rights (ECCHR) [advocacy websites] urged the signatory states of the CAT to pursue criminal charges against the former president [JURIST report]. The call came as the rights groups announced that two criminal complaints [text, PDF] were to be filed in Switzerland against Bush before he canceled his trip to the country. Calls to investigate the criminal culpability of Bush and officials in his administration have been consistently rejected by US officials [JURIST report]. In November, the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) [advocacy website] urged US Attorney General Eric Holder to investigate Bush for violation of the federal statute prohibiting torture [18 USC § 2340A]. Also citing his memoir, the ACLU argued that the use of waterboarding has historically been prosecuted as a crime in the US. The letter also argued that failure to investigate Bush would harm the US's ability to advocate for human rights in other countries. Bush's secretary of defense Donald Rumsfeld [JURIST news archive] has also faced possible criminal charges in Europe, when, in 2007, a war crimes complaint was filed against him [JURIST report] in Germany for his involvement in detainee treatment. The case was later dismissed [JURIST report].
The Wisconsin Constitution does not authorize the Legislature to exclude an elector from the right of suffrage for any reason other than those set out in Article II, Section 2, or to impose additional qualifications on the right to vote that are not expressly set out by Article II, Sec. 1.
There are now 30 US states that require voters to present some form of ID at the polls, including 14 states that require photo ID, but the issue remains controversial. In August, South Carolina's Senate Minority Caucus filed an objection [JURIST report] with the US Department of Justice (DOJ) [official website], asking for the rejection of the state's new voter identification law. The caucus argued that the law, which requires South Carolina residents to present a current government-issued ID, is too restrictive and may disenfranchise African Americans and elderly voters. The objection followed earlier attempts by several South Carolina civil rights groups [JURIST report] to prevent the law from being implemented. In October 2010, a three-judge panel for the US Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit [official website] struck down [JURIST report] a portion of an Arizona law requiring proof of citizenship for voter registration. The court held that the law, Proposition 200, was inconsistent with the National Voter Registration Act of 1993 (NVRA), which was passed with the intent of increasing voter registration and removing barriers to registration imposed by the states.
Libyan Prime Minister Mahmoud Jibril [official profile] confirmed at a press conference Thursday that Libyan opposition forces on captured and killed former leader Gaddafi. The cause of death is unknown, but eyewitnesses claim that he died from gunshot wounds. Also on Thursday, Libyan Information Minister Mahmoud Shammam confirmed the death of Gaddafi's son, Mutassim Gaddafi. Officials have also announced the arrests of Gaddafi's son, Saif al-Islam Gaddafi and former Gaddafi spokesman Moussa Ibrahim, although later reports indicated that Saif al-Islam remains at large. Libyan civilians and National Transitional Council (NTC) [official website] officials celebrated the news of Gaddafi's death, and several world leaders expressed relief and support for Libya. UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-Moon [official profile] said the day marked "an historic transition" for the country and urged Libyans to stop fighting and promote peace. Gaddafi's death marks the latest milestone in the Libya conflict [JURIST feature], which began in February [JURIST report] as part of a wider protest movement that had spread throughout the Middle East and North Africa. The UN Human Rights Council (UNHRC) [official website] published a 92-page report saying that Libyan authorities committed crimes against humanity [JURIST report] under Gaddafi's direct orders during the conflict.
While there may conceivably be some political benefit in suing the President and the Secretary of Defense, in light of shrinking judicial budgets, scarce judicial resources, and a heavy caseload, the Court finds it frustrating to expend time and effort adjudicating the relitigation of settled questions of law. The Court does not mean to imply that the judiciary should be anything but open and accommodating to all members of society, but is simply expressing its dismay that the plaintiffs are seemingly using the limited resources of this Court to achieve what appear to be purely political ends, when it should be clear to them that this Court is powerless to depart from clearly established precedent of the Supreme Court and the District of Columbia Circuit.
The court's ruling came as Obama was announcing the death of former Libyan leader Muammar Gaddafi [BBC profile; JURIST news archive]. Gaddafi was captured and killed [JURIST report] on Thursday after military forces loyal to the newly formed government, the National Transitional Council (NTC) [website], took control of Sirte [Al Jazeera report]. Gaddafi's death marks the latest milestone in the Libya conflict [JURIST feature], which began in February [JURIST report] as part of a wider protest movement that had spread throughout the Middle East and North Africa. Gaddafi and his supporters have been on the run since August, when rebel forces supported by the NTC captured the capital city of Tripoli. Earlier in the summer, the International Criminal Court (ICC) [official website] had issued an arrest warrant [JURIST report] for Gaddafi for crimes against humanity, although some commentators suggested that Gaddafi should face trial in Libya [JURIST op-ed]. The UN Human Rights Council (UNHRC) [official website] published a 92-page report saying that Libyan authorities committed crimes against humanity [JURIST report] under Gaddafi's direct orders during the conflict, including acts constituting murder, imprisonment, and other severe deprivations of physical liberties, torture, forced disappearances, and rape "as part of a widespread or systematic attack against a civilian population with knowledge of the attack." Gaddafi ruled Libya as a dictator for 42 years after taking power in a coup, and was known for his eccentricity and for the tight control he kept over the country.
The US court system is also being utilized to expand the scope of gay parental rights. Last week, the US Supreme Court [official website] declined to review [JURIST report] a case involving a same-sex couple who want both their names on the birth certificate of an adopted child. Though adopted in New York, the child was born in Louisiana, where the couple was refused their request. The couple appealed, and, in April, the US Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit [official website] ruled en banc against the parents [JURIST report], finding that "adoption is not a fundamental right," and that "Louisiana has a legitimate interest in encouraging a stable and nurturing environment for the education and socialization of its adopted children." In May 2010, the New York Court of Appeals [official website] issued two rulings [JURIST report] expanding the rights of non-biological gay and lesbian parents. In one case the court determined that a lesbian can assert parental rights over the biological child of her partner, reversing a lower court decision [JURIST report]. In the second case, the court ruled that a lesbian could seek child support from her former partner.
Since 2007, the number of Palestinian children arrested and prosecuted has risen each year, and there is abundant evidence of child abuse associated with interrogations and arrests of children. Arrest procedures documented include arrests in the middle of the night, removal of child from parents for questioning, abusive treatment in detention, and conviction procedures that appear to preclude findings of not guilty.
Israel has faced ongoing criticism from the UN and international human rights groups for its action in the Palestinian territories, which have been under Israeli military control since 1967. Last month, Turkey's Minister of Foreign Affairs Ahmet Davutoglu said that Turkey will sue Israel [JURIST report] in the International Court of Justice (ICJ) [official website] over the legality of Israel's Gaza Strip blockade. Also last month, the UN criticized Israel for using excessive force [JURIST report] during a May 2010 flotilla incident [JURIST news archive], in which Israeli forces raided several Turkish ships bound for the blockaded Gaza Strip. In June, UN High Commissioner for Human Rights Navi Pillay condemned the killings of between 30 and 40 protesters [Reuters report] which had been killed by Israeli security forces along the ceasefire line between occupied borders. Nearly 20 civilian protesters were reportedly killed during a protest on June 5 marking the anniversary of the 1967 Middle East war [NPR backgrounder]. In January, a UN official alleged [JURIST report] that Israeli authorities had committed several illegal acts in the Palestinian territories since the start of the year, making the prospect of a viable Palestinian state unlikely.
The Legal Counsel strongly urged the Royal Government of Cambodia to refrain from statements opposing the progress of Cases 003 and 004 and to refrain from interfering in any way whatsoever with the judicial process. She emphasized the obligation of the Royal Government of Cambodia to cooperate fully with the ECCC.
Earlier this week, the UN-backed ECCC announced that the trial of the surviving Khmer Rouge leaders will begin [JURIST report] on Monday, November 21. Last week, rights groups urged the UN [JURIST report] to assure that Cambodia will not interfere with the tribunal's work. In September, the ECCC ordered the trials of four alleged Khmer Rouge leaders be split into a series of smaller trials [JURIST report]. The ECCC said that the separation of trials will allow the tribunal to deliberate more quickly in the case against the four elderly defendants.

How many contacts (name & number only) can a sim card hold?
Does it vary from sim to sim ?

I have an old Nokia 6510, and it has 500 (name and number only) spaces.
As far as I know a SIM can still hold 500 names even on new mobiles. There theres much more 'Danamic' memory in newer mobiles. I think they should make SIMS that can take names, address' and numbers. You would be able to transfer them easily, especially now you can get landlines which are SIM capable. It just simplifies things.

usually 200 depending on the sim, some have more memory than others. some older ones were only able to save 50 and 8 text messages, so it all depends how old the sim card is and in some cases whether pay as you go or contract as I know that orange used to have different memories on payg to that on contract sims

IEEE survey: Microsoft is software industry's leading innovator
I was reading through IEEE's recent patent portfolio survey and was surprised to see that Microsoft was ranked No. 1 in terms of the overall quality, and more importantly, scientific value of its patent portfolio. The company that gave us Clippy is also sitting on a small mountain of innovation.
The question, of course, is how to turn raw innovation into saleable products. In this area Microsoft may be too dependent on last decade's products to truly focus on the next decade. Yes, Microsoft has churned out the Zune, Xbox, and other new products. But I suspect its dominance in operating systems and office productivity suites keeps it from truly pushing the envelope with new products, because everything has to fit within yesterday's conception of how computing should work.
In short, could Microsoft be its own worst enemy?
Here are the rankings:… Read more

Nate Drahn '16 is a talented multi-instrumentalist who plays piano, guitar, and violin.
After befriending a former opera singer who suffered from dementia, Nate shared his talent and saw the impact of music on his friend's mind.
The experience inspired "Music for the Mind," an Odyssey project Nate designed to explore the impact of music therapy and how to most effectively use the piano, guitar and violin to connect with the residents at "The Aegis at Callahan House" in Seattle, Wash., who suffer from some degree of dementia and can no longer live alone.
Nate spent the summer as a volunteer, sharing his musical talents, playing for the residents, and researching songs of eras familiar to the residents to have the most resonance when performing.
"People can progress from utter confusion to incredible clarity within the course of one song," he said. "You can see moments when the impact of music is undeniable. And a moment is enough."

After a few memorable film roles in the 1970s, Don Johnson landed the part of a lifetime in 1984 as Sonny Crockett on TV's Miami Vice. The series lasted until 1989, earning Johnson a Golden Globe Award and celebrity status. He followed the series with performances in TV movies, including The Long Hot Summer. During the 1990s, Johnson enjoyed another career renaissance as the star of Nash Bridges.
Early Life
Actor, director, musician and producer Don Johnson was born Donald Wayne Johnson on December 15, 1949, in Flat Creek, Missouri. Johnson's father was a farmer and his mother was a beautician. A professional actor by his late teens, Johnson's earliest stage and screen assignments frequently found him cast as a fallen innocent.
After graduating from Kansas' South High School in 1967, Johnson briefly attended the University of Kansas, and later enrolled in acting courses at the American Conservatory Theatre. Around this time, in 1970, he gained national attention as the 20-year-old star of the counterculture comedy The Magic Garden of Stanley Sweetheart. He went on to win critical and popular acclaim with the cult favorite A Boy and His Dog in 1975.
'Miami Vice' and 'Nash Bridges'
Following the release of A Boy and His Dog, Johnson fell off the radar for more than a decade, not making his comeback until 1984, with the role of Sonny Crockett in the trend-setting TV cop series Miami Vice. The series lasted until 1989, earning Johnson a Golden Globe Award and celebrity status. He followed the series with memorable performances in TV movies, including as Ben Quick in the 1985 remake of The Long Hot Summer.
Johnson went on to enjoy another career renaissance in 1996, debuting as the star of the detective show Nash Bridges, which was filmed on the West Coast. That same year, he played Kevin Costner's adversary in the Ron Shelton golf comedy Tin Cup (1996). Quickly proving to be a hit with audiences, Nash Bridges' continued to garner popularity for several years thereafter, running until 2001.
Johnson returned to series television in the early 2000s, starring as a gruff, burnt out lawyer named Grant Cooper on 2005's Just Legal. On the show, Cooper takes on a 18-year-old law school graduate as his associate, Skip Ross (played by Jay Baruchel), who helps revive Cooper's interest in the law. Unfortunately, Just Legal was canceled after only a few episodes.
Making Headlines
In recent years, Johnson has made headlines for his financial troubles. In 2003, Johnson was pulled over while driving in Europe with three friends, and when officers searched his vehicle, they found a suitcase containing an estimated $8 billion worth of financial documents. After Johnson told officials that the documents belonged to potential investors for a film project—an explanation spurring wide speculation—he and his companions were free to go.
Three years later, in 2006, Johnson almost lost his Aspen, Colorado ranch due to his unpaid debt to a lending company.

Emergency training
The job of firefighter and paramedic requires us to keep our skills sharp in countless different areas. On Jan. 12, Cambria Fire, Cambria Community Healthcare District and Cal Fire Station 10 conducted a multi-casualty incident drill. The scenario involved a collision between a school bus and two vehicles.
This training would not have been possible without the outpouring of support from our community. It is with endless gratitude that we would like to recognize the following for going above and beyond and making it possible for us to better serve our community:
Special thanks to Norm Smyth, the Cambria Community Emergency Response Team, Winsor Construction, Rick Skinner, Coast Unified School District, Carlos Mendoza, Cambria Community Services District, Keith Radecki, Sam Rivera, the Bramlette family, and, especially, Ron Adams and Cambria Tow, who continue to provide a myriad of vehicles on which we can perfect our extrication skills.
It is an honor to serve Cambria, where the benevolence and support of our citizens creates a solid foundation for the emergency service workers. Hopefully in our career, none of us ever roll up on a smashed-up school bus full of children.
However, if we are faced with this daunting task, we are that much more prepared.
Emily Torlano
Saddened by fence
I am very sympathetic to those who are protesting the barbed wire fence around a huge segment of Cambria's lovely Monterey pine forest. I used to love walking up Bridge Street from Main Street to our beautiful and unique Cambria cemetery.
The barbed wire surprised me. It made beauty into horror. I feel sad for the animals trapped inside. I can't imagine that a forest preserve would be handled in such a manner! Could this even be legal?
I used to love to walk around Cambria Cemetery as well, enjoyed it nestled in our forest, with all the unique monuments to Cambrians who came before us. Now it looks like a concentration camp, our loved ones from the past fallen there, surrounded by barbed wire.
I'm glad my husband and I decided last fall to sell our four plots on the Cambria Cemetery. We contributed the proceeds towards a bench at Strawberry Canyon through Greenspace — The Cambria Land Trust. Strawberry Canyon will remain beautiful always, provide shelter for our animals and birds and paths for us all to enjoy.
