For the purpose of administrative convenience the court may request that the defendant enter an appearance prior to trial. Such appearance may be made in person, by telephone or by mail but the fact that no appearance is entered by the defendant shall not be grounds for default judgment. Amended Dec. 23, 1976, effective Jan. 1, 1977. Rule 5. Counterclaims (A) Time and Manner of Filing. If the defendant has any claim against the plaintiff, the defendant may bring or mail a statement of such claim to the small claims court within such time as will allow the court to mail a copy to the plaintiff and be received by the plaintiff at least seven (7) calendar days prior to the trial. If such counterclaim is not received within this time the plaintiff may request a continuance pursuant to S.C. 9. The counterclaim must conform with the requirements of S.C. 2(B)(4). (B) Counterclaim in Excess of Jurisdiction. Any defendant pursuing a counterclaim to decision waives the excess of the defendant's claim over the jurisdictional maximum of the small claims docket and may not later bring a separate action for the remainder of such claim.

However, claims exceeding one thousand five hundred dollars ($1,500.00) must be defended or presented by counsel. (4) Full-Time Employee Designations – Binding Effect of Designations and Requirements. In the event a corporate entity, sole proprietorship, partnership, LLC or LLP designates a full-time employee to appear in its stead, the corporate entity, sole proprietor, partnership, LLC or LLP will be bound by any and all agreements relating to the small claims proceedings entered into by the designated employee and will be liable for any and all costs, including those assessed by reason of contempt, levied by a court against the designated employee. No person who is disbarred or suspended from the practice of law in Indiana or any other jurisdiction may appear for a corporate entity or on behalf of a sole proprietor, partnership, LLC or LLP under this rule.

Additionally, the designated employee must have on file with the court exercising jurisdiction of the proceedings an affidavit stating that he/she is not disbarred or suspended from the practice of law in Indiana or any other jurisdiction.

The court shall give notice of the continuance and the new date and time of trial to all parties. (B) Designating Employee.

If the plaintiff fails to appear at the time and place specified in the notice of claim, or for any continuance thereof, the court may dismiss the action without prejudice. If a counterclaim has been filed the court may grant judgment for the defendant after first making an inquiry similar to that required by S.C. 10(B) in the case of default judgments. If the claim is refiled and the plaintiff again fails to appear such claim may be dismissed with prejudice. (B) Default. If the defendant fails to appear at the time and place specified in the notice of claim, or for any continuance thereof, the court may enter a default judgment against him. Before default judgment is entered, the court shall examine the notice of claim and return thereof and make inquiry, under oath, of those present so as to assure the court that: (1) Service of notice of claim was had under such circumstances as to establish a reasonable probability that the defendant received such notice; (2) Within the knowledge of those present, the defendant is not under legal disability and has sufficient understanding to realize the nature and effect of the notice of claim; and 4 (3) The plaintiff has a prima facie case. After such assurance, the court may render default judgment and, upon entering such judgment, shall assess court costs against the defendant. (C) Setting Aside Default. Upon good cause shown the court may, within one year after entering a default judgment, vacate such judgment and reschedule the hearing of the original claim. Following the expiration of one year, the judgment debtor may seek a reversal of the original judgment only upon the filing of an independent action, as provided in Ind.R.Tr.P. 60(B). Amended Dec. 23, 1976, effective Jan. 1, 1977; amended Nov. 21, 1980, effective Jan. 1, 1981; amended Sep. 23, 2008, effective Jan. 1, 2009. Rule 11. Judgment (A) Entry and Notice of Judgment.

Judgment shall be subject to review as prescribed by relevant Indiana rules and statutes. Notwithstanding the provisions of T.R. 5(A), the court shall send notice of all small claims judgments and all judgments of the Marion County Small Claims Court, whether by default or not, to the attorneys of record, or if a party is appearing pro se, to the party of record.

(E) Deleted, eff. Jan. 1, 1990. (F) Effect of Judgment. A judgment shall be res judicata only as to the amount involved in the particular action and shall not be considered an adjudication of any fact at issue in any other action or court. Amended Nov. 21, 1980, effective Jan. 1, 1981; Nov. 13, 1989, effective Jan. 1, 1990; Nov. 13, 1990, effective Jan. 1, 1991; amended Nov. 25, 1997, effective Jan. 1, 1998: amended Dec. 4, 1998, effective Jan. 1, 1999. Rule 12. Venue (A) Proper Venue. Proper venue for a case filed in the small claims docket of a Circuit, Superior, or County Court shall be in the county where the transaction or occurrence actually took place or where the obligation was incurred or is to be performed, or where one of the defendants resides or has his or her place of employment at the time the complaint is filed. Proper venue of any claim between landlord and tenant, including but not limited to a claim for rent, for possession of real estate, for return of property, for return of security deposit or for damages, filed in county small claims courts created pursuant to IC 33-34-1-2 shall be in the county and township division of the Small Claims Court where the real estate is located. In the event there is no court division existing in the township where the real estate is located, such claim may be filed in any of the townships of the county. (B) Motion to Correct Venue. When it appears that the county in which the action is pending is not the proper place for the hearing of such action, the court shall, on the motion of a party or upon its own motion, determine the correctness of the venue. If the venue is incorrect the judge shall, at the option of the plaintiff, order the action to be transferred or dismissed without prejudice unless the defendant appears and waives the venue requirement. (C) No Waiver of Venue. No contract or agreement shall operate as a waiver of the provisions of this rule and the court shall treat any such attempt as being void. 5 Amended effective March 28, 1990; amended Nov. 18, 1993, effective Jan. 1, 1994; amended Sep. 10, 2007, effective Jan. 1, 2008.

Appointment of referee by circuit judge; compensation In any circuit court exercising small claims jurisdiction, the circuit judge may appoint a referee to assist the court in performing the "county court functions." Such referee shall be an attorney admitted to practice in Indiana and shall serve at the pleasure of the circuit judge. The referee shall have such authority as the circuit judge shall assign by order. The referee shall be a finder of fact--the decision rendered will be that of the circuit judge. Such referee shall be paid reasonable compensation, including a mileage allowance to be determined by the appointing circuit court judge. In recommending to the Supreme Court of Indiana appropriate compensation, the appointing circuit court judge shall consider the estimated caseload, the amount of work time needed to fulfill the assigned duties, and any other relevant factors relating to the referee's duties. Compensation shall be reasonably commensurate with the workload assigned. The amount authorized by the Supreme Court to be paid shall be paid by the state. Amended Dec. 15, 1995, effective Feb. 1, 1996. Rule 15. Method of Keeping Records Under the direction of the Supreme Court of Indiana, the Clerk of the Circuit Court may, notwithstanding the recordkeeping practices set forth for small claims proceedings, keep records in any suitable media. The recordkeeping formats and systems and the quality and permanency requirements employed for the Chronological Case Summary, the Case File, and the Record of Judgments and Orders (Order Book) shall be approved by the Division of State Court Administration for compliance with applicable requirements. Adopted Nov. 13, 1989, effective permissive prior to Jan. 1, 1991 and mandatory Jan. 1, 1991. Rule 16. Order of Possession of Real Estate (A) Time for Requesting.

The court shall indicate the specific date of expiration on the face of each order of possession. Adopted Nov. 25, 1997, effective Jan. 1, 1998. 6

Hello, Asheville and Hello to all of Western North Carolina!
My name is Gregg Jensen, I'm the new guy in town, and I am proud and pleased to be able to host The Morning Report on News Radio 570 WWNC. I'll also be serving as News Director for WWNC and look forward to learning the ways and means of the community in an interest to better serve you with information each and every morning. As we get acquainted, please feel free to send an email keeping me in the loop on newsworthy items of note, or just to say Hi.
A bit about me: I'm a radio news broadcaster by trade, and by heritage. My father was behind the microphone as far back the 2nd World War. He read the bulletin when the US dropped the A Bomb on Hiroshima. The biggest story I ever covered on air was in NYC on Sept 11, 2001. There are many others as well. 20 years worth. I've lived in 7 states, travelled through 47, and have spent most of my radio career in Boston and New York. In Boston, I worked for WBZ AM and in New York, for WCBS AM & FM and 1010 WINS... all news stations. I was born in the tiny town of Dover, Massachusets, not far from Boston. Dover is a rural New England community and I grew up working farms. Horses, sheep, chickens and vegetables, not necessarily in that order. In addition to my radio experience, I hold my own as a machine operator, priding myself on the fact I can get a tractor across a pretty steep slope. I'm also an avid home gardener and the dream is to have a 10 acre farm some day soon. Considering I'm from the frozen Northeast, if we receive snow only on Christmas Eve in Carolina, that's just fine by me.
Apart from the career side of life, I enjoy my new home in the mountains and look forward to exploring the countryside, trout streams and the fantastic assortment of culture Asheville has to offer. I love blues, bluegrass, and good old rock 'n' roll, and am overwhelmed at the variety of live music this area presents. I have frequented this part of the country ever since the mid-1980's and knew then it would be the perfect spot to settle. That's exactly what I've done.
I can't wait to be part of the community; let's stay in touch as we move along!

Medicines, drugs, pills and potions - what's safe during pregnancy and what's not
As many drugs aren't proven harmful, in some cases your doctor may decide that the health benefit to you outweighs the theoretical potential risk to your baby, and may prescribe a medicine that you would otherwise be advised to avoid.
Some women who suffer from migraines may find that these disappear during pregnancy, others may find that they are more common. If you know that you're a migraine sufferer then talk to your doctor as soon as you can about medication that's safe to take during pregnancy. More on headaches and migraines in pregnancy.
If you're finding it difficult to shake off a cold or flu then make sure you see your doctor in case you have a secondary infection.

More copies of this ISBNThis title in other editionsAunt Dimity and the Duke (Penguin Crime Fiction)by Nancy Atherton
Synopses & ReviewsPublisher Comments:Emma Porter is forty, fat, frumpy, and a passionate amateur gardener. When her longtime lover dumps her for a younger woman, Emma escapes the cloying sympathy of family and friends by setting out on a summer-long driving tour of England's glorious gardens. A Dimity-contrived coincidence brings her to Penford Hall, a sprawling Gothic mansion in Cornwall, where she finds a duke in search of a missing lantern with extraordinary powers.

[JURIST] A European Parliament delegation [official website] met with Romanian lawmaker Norica Nicolai [official profile, in Romanian] on Tuesday as part of its ongoing investigation [JURIST news archive] into allegations that the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) [official website] held terror suspects in secret prisons [COE materials] throughout eastern Europe as part of its rendition program [JURIST news archive]. Nicolai, who led Romania's investigation into CIA flights in the country, repeated denials [JURIST report] that Romania hosted detention centers or allowed detainee dropoffs, but she was unable to deny the possibility that detainees were transported through Romania on refueling stopovers. She reported that a review of European air traffic control documents indicated that while the planes were on Romania soil, no passengers left the planes and no foreigners entered them. Previously, Nicolai had stated that the committee had investigated every flight through Romania's five airports between 2001 and 2006 and found no irregularities or suspicious flights. The visiting EU lawmakers are on a three-day fact-finding trip, meeting with Romanian intelligence heads, lawmakers, aviations authorities, journalists, and representatives of NGOs. Romania has become an epicenter for CIA abuse investigations since it and Poland [JURIST reports] were singled out as hosts to CIA prisons by a Council of Europe [official website] draft report [PDF text; JURIST report] in June. AP has more.
[JURIST] An independent United Nations [official website] commission released a report [PDF, official press release] on Tuesday calling for criminal investigations into the former prime minister of East Timor [JURIST news archive], Mari Alkatiri [BBC profile] and four other former government officials in relation to armed confrontations between the government and military that left 37 dead earlier this year. The report claims to have found no support for allegations that Alkari armed local militia groups [JURIST report] to kill his political opponents, but it recommended he be investigated for weapons offenses and for illegally using armed forces to control protests in April. The report also implicated the former head of military police Alfredo Reinado, former interior minister Rogerio Lobato, former defense minister Roque Rodrigues, and head of defense Taur Matan Ruak. In addition to potential individual wrongdoing, the report cited "institutional weaknesses and divisions within and between institutions" as a cause of the violence. Alkatiri resigned in June after his dismissal of hundreds of striking members of the armed forces led to rioting [BBC report] in April and continued violence throughout May [JURIST report]. The UN commission, formed at the request of Secretary General Kofi Annan [official website] in June, released its report to the Timorese Parliament in Dili. AFP has more.
[JURIST] The nephew of assassinated Egyptian President Anwar Sadat [CNN profile] began a sit-in in front of Egypt's parliament on Tuesday to protest his upcoming military trial [JURIST report] for implicating the Egyptian army in his uncle's assassination 25 years ago [BBC archive]. Talat al-Sadat declared his intent to boycott his trial on Wednesday, claiming his right to a defense team has been violated and that he refused to be tried by a military court. He stressed his innocence and affirmed his respect for the army.Al-Sadat, a politician from the small Al-Ahrar [Wikipedia backgrounder] opposition party, has recently stepped up his attacks on the government of President Hosni Mubarak [official profile]. In several interviews marking the 25th anniversary of his uncle's death, al-Sadat insinuated [Aljazeera report] that Mubarak, the then-vice-president who has governed Egypt [JURIST news archive] since the assassination, was involved in the murder and that senior army officials and his uncle's bodyguards were party to it. Egyptian rights groups have also decried al-Sadat's military trial [AFP report], contending his only crime was exercising freedom of speech. AFP has more.
[JURIST] Dr. Lester M. Crawford [official profile], former commissioner of the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) [official website], pleaded guilty to charges [criminal information, PDF] of conflict of interest and false writing [US Code text] at his arraignment hearing Tuesday afternoon in front of US Magistrate Judge Deborah Robinson. Both crimes are misdemeanors and carry a combined maximum penalty of 2 years in prison and a $200,000 fine. Crawford's lawyers said earlier in the week that he would plead guilty to the charges [JURIST report].According to a press release [text] from the US Attorney's Office for the District of Columbia, the false writings charge stemmed from Crawford's failure to disclose his and/or his wife's ownership of stock in several "significantly regulated organizations." That list included such companies as such as Embrex, Sysco, Teleflex and PepsiCo [corporate websites]. The charge of conflict of interest involved FDA proceedings that Crawford oversaw that directly concerned PepsiCo and Sysco while he owned stock in both companies. Sentencing is scheduled for January 22, 2007. AP has more.
[JURIST] European Commission President Jose Manuel Barroso [official profile] has suggested in a speech delivered in the UK that a different name be used to enact the institutional reforms set out in the failed European Constitution [JURIST news archive], echoing a similar notion advanced earlier this year by German Chancellor Angela Merkel [official website in German, BBC profile] and EU foreign ministers [JURIST report]. Acknowledging the constitution's failure to gain support in France and the Netherlands [JURIST reports], Barroso ventured in remarks Monday that "[p]erhaps the grand finality of the word 'constitution' set it up as a hostage to fortune, both to inter-governmentalists who felt it went too far, and to federalists, who felt it did not go far enough." Instead, Barroso suggested, "A new institutional settlement for the EU should be seen within the same intellectual framework as the continued reform of existing EU policies."The speech was aimed at rousing greater support for the European Union [official website] in Britain, and Barroso insisted to so-called Eurosceptics [Times report] that the EU was not "created by foreigners for the sole purpose of eroding the sovereignty of the United Kingdom," but was instead a "uniquely effective instrument" for developing solutions to "new cross-border challenges." Climate change, global poverty and increasing security were cited as among those challenges, and Barroso championed stronger institutions as a path to meeting them, because "the current set-up is less than optimal." Nevertheless, he conceded that "the nation state is, and will, I think, remain the principle source of political power, because it is to the nation state that most Europeans feel greatest allegiance." He went on to admonish the British for their reticence toward the Constitution and greater integration:
The UK's role in developing Europe is a vital role and the UK can take pride in its contribution. And yet it sometimes seems reluctant to do so. This may be because of your native modesty. But it will never work as a means of convincing the British public of the need for Europe. You will never persuade people to support an organisation which you pretend does not exist.
[JURIST] China [JURIST news archive] is building a large barbed wire and concrete fence along parts of its border with North Korea [JURIST news archive], according to farmers and visitors in the area. A Chinese Defense Ministry spokesman refused to comment or release information on border security. But experts and an official speaking on condition of anonymity told the Associated Press the project was approved in 2003 and is being spearheaded by the military. While North Korea and China have long enjoyed amicable relations, the border has become a growing security concern over the past decade as thousands of refugees from North Korea [JURIST news archive] took advantage of the lightly guarded border to enter China illegally. China [JURIST news archive] also may be trying to mark its border with North Korea along the Tumen and Yalu Rivers, Professor Kim Woo-jun of the Institute of East and West Studies in Seoul told AP. He said China and North Korea drew their border in a secret treaty that was never reported to the United Nations [official website]. AP has more.Once largely identified with the notorious and now-demolished Berlin Wall [Wikipedia backgrounder], so-called "security fences" are increasingly used by nations worried that their borders may be compromised. In September the US Congress passed [JURIST report] the Secure Fence Act of 2006 [HR 6061 text, PDF], authorizing construction of a 700-mile fence along the US-Mexico border [JURIST news archive] to curb illegal immigration into the United States; the US Department of Homeland Security also plans to put up an electronic "virtual fence" [JURIST report] along the 49th parallel [Wikipedia backgrounder] line facing Canada, traditionally hailed as the world's longest "undefended border." Israel has built a security fence [official website; JURIST news archive] to prevent unauthorized movement of people from the Gaza Strip across the line established after the 1948 Arab-Israeli War. Recently, Saudi Arabia announced plans to build a 900-kilometer fence [Aljazeera report] along its border with Iraq to improve security.
[JURIST] A federal judge in Houston on Tuesday vacated the conviction [PDF text] and dismissed the indictment of Enron founder Ken Lay [defense website; Houston Chronicle profile]. Lay was convicted [JURIST report] in May on fraud and conspiracy charges [indictment, PDF] for providing investors with false and misleading financial information from 1999 up until Enron [JURIST news archive] filed bankruptcy in late 2001. He died suddenly [JURIST report] of a heart attack in July prompting his lawyers to ask that Lay's conviction be vacated [JURIST report] and the indictment dismissed. Lay died before his sentencing date and therefore was not afforded an opportunity to exhaust the appeals process, and no final judgment was issued in the case. Under the "doctrine of abatement," federal courts may vacate convictions of criminal defendants that die pending appeal.The US Justice Department had asked US District Judge Simeon T. Lake III to defer a ruling [JURIST report] in the matter to allow Congress time to consider a bill drafted by DOJ lawyers that would remove the doctrine of abatement from the criminal code, but Lay's lawyers pressed for speedy ruling [JURIST report] last week, on the grounds that Congress adjourned in September with neither introduction nor passage of any such bill. With the vacated conviction, the federal government now has no means of seizing property controlled by the Lay estate to compensate victims of the Enron collapse. Instead, victims will have to pursue civil remedies against Lay [JURIST report] in order to recover money lost when Enron declared bankruptcy. The Houston Chronicle has more.
[JURIST] Thai Prime Minister Surayud Chulanont [official website; BBC profile] said Tuesday that Thailand [JURIST news archive] will remain under martial law but will ease restrictions on political gatherings. Martial law currently prohibits gatherings of more than five people. The interim government, formally installed [BBC report] October 9 after receiving the approval of Thai King Bhumibol Adulyadej, will allow meetings in venues such as universities and auditoriums. Surayud said the easing of restrictions will take place after consultation with the military and approval of the newly appointed National Legislative Assembly.Human rights groups and the US government [JURIST reports] have urged Thailand [JURIST news archive] to revoke the martial law imposed [JURIST report] on the country by military leaders who seized power from former Prime Minister Thaksin Shinawatra [JURIST news archive] in a bloodless coup [JURIST report] September 19. Shinawatra, currently in London, has been warned not to return [JURIST report] to Thailand until martial law is lifted. AP has more.
[JURIST] A federal judge Monday rejected Missouri's lethal injection protocols as unconstitutional [JURIST report] for the second time. Last month, US District Judge Fernando Gaitan [official profile] ordered [PDF] Missouri [JURIST news archive] to submit new protocols [JURIST report] by October 27 for carrying out the state death penalty [JURIST news archive]. The decision is in response to a lawsuit [case materials] filed by convicted murderer Michael Taylor [NCADP backgrounder], who claims Missouri's execution procedures are "constitutionally cruel" because the drug mixture could lead to severe pain for the inmate. In Monday's ruling, Gaitan again expressed concern about subjecting inmates to unreasonable risk of cruel and unusual punishment. In July, the judge had also ordered [JURIST report] the Missouri Department of Corrections [official website] to have a board-certified anesthesiologist assist in executions. Earlier this month, the state's attorneys submitted the same protocols Missouri has been using and asked Gaitan to reconsider his September decision. AP has more.Like other states that authorize lethal injection [DPIC backgrounder], Missouri uses a three-drug regime. The first drug acts as a painkiller while the second paralyzes and the third drug causes a fatal heart attack. A 2005 study [registration required] published in the medical journal Lancet [journal website] suggested that the painkiller may wear off before the inmate dies.
[JURIST] The music industry filed lawsuits Tuesday against 8,000 defendants in 17 countries for allegedly participating in illegal file-sharing. The industry, represented by the International Federation of the Phonographic Industry (IFPI) [official website], reported that its latest wave of lawsuits targets people who upload copyrighted songs to file-sharing networks. Many of those being sued are parents of children who are accused of illegally sharing music files on the Internet.Many countries have enacted tougher file-sharing laws to combat illegal downloading. Russia's new copyright protection law [JURIST report], implemented in September, is the most recent. IFPI's last wave of lawsuits [JURIST report] was a year ago against what was at the time its largest group of defendants - 2,100 allegedly illegal uploaders in 16 nations. Reuters has more.
[JURIST] The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People [advocacy website] has said that the organization will monitor polling places [press release] during the upcoming mid-term elections on November 7 in ten states chosen in part because of a history of problems in those locations. NAACP President Bruce Gordon [official profile] stated Monday that the organization "will take steps to counter obstacles to voter participation," and the NAACP reported that it will partner with other organizations to handle complaints of irregularities and other voter problems at polling stations. Any problems will be reported the US Justice Department [official website].The states to be monitored are Alabama, Florida, Georgia, Louisiana, Maryland, Michigan, Mississippi, Ohio, Pennsylvania, and Texas. AP has more.
[JURIST] The chief judge presiding over Saddam Hussein's genocide trial [JURIST news archive; BBC timeline] agreed Tuesday to allow two lawyers representing one of Hussein's co-defendants to return to court. The lawyers had been participating in a boycott of the trial [JURIST report], but Sultan Hashim Al-Tai, Hussein's defense minister, requested that Judge Mohammed Oreibi al-Khalifa give the lawyers leave to return to court. Khalifa agreed, but when bailiffs summoned the lawyers, they failed to appear. Khalid al-Dulaimi [JURIST news archive], Hussein's lead defense lawyer, denied Tuesday that his colleagues would return to court and instead said that the boycott will continue.Last week, al-Dulaimi stated that defense lawyers will continue their boycott [JURIST report], which began in September shortly after Chief Judge Abdullah al-Amiri was replaced [JURIST report] by Khalifa to preside over the genocide trial. Reuters has more. AP has additional coverage.
[JURIST] President George W. Bush signed the Military Commissions Act of 2006 [PDF text; S 3930 summary] Tuesday. The US Congress approved the bill [JURIST report] late last month after leaders of the House of Representatives decided to forego the process of reconciling slightly-divergent House and Senate versions, with the House instead adopting the Senate version of the legislation.The military commissions bill [JURIST news archive] became necessary after the US Supreme Court ruled in June that the commissions, as initially constituted, lacked proper legal authorization [JURIST report]. The law provides statutory authorization for military commission trials for Guantanamo Bay [JURIST news archive] and the Bush administration has promised to immediately take steps toward beginning prosecution [briefing transcript; AP report]. A senior state department official said last week that as many as 80 detainees could face trial by military commission [JURIST report].Under the Military Commissions Act [CRS summary], the president is authorized to establish military commissions to try unlawful enemy combatants. The commissions are authorized to sentence defendants to death, and defendants are prevented from invoking the Geneva Conventions [ICRC materials] as a source of rights during commission proceedings. The law contains a highly-controversial provision stripping detainees of the right to file habeas corpus petitions in federal court and also allows hearsay evidence to be admitted during proceedings, so long as the presiding officer determines it to be reliable. The law addresses permissible interrogation methods, making US interrogators subject to only a limited range of "grave breaches" purporting to reflect the requirements of Common Article 3 of the Geneva Conventions, and clarifies [JURIST report] what actions would subject interrogators to liability under the existing federal War Crimes Act [text; JURIST report].A legal challenge to the law [JURIST report] has already been filed by a group of Afghan detainees who argue that Congress, by passing the bill, endangered the rights [CCR press release] of detainees. The habeas stripping provisions of the new law apply retroactively, and in order for the detainees to be successful, a judge will have to strike down the portion of the new law that precludes the challenges.10:26 AM ET - Signing the Military Commissions Act, Bush called the law "one of the most important pieces of legislation in the War on Terror." In remarks [text] before signing the bill, Bush said:
The bill I'm about to sign also provides a way to deliver justice to the terrorists we have captured. In the months after 9/11, I authorized a system of military commissions to try foreign terrorists accused of war crimes. These commissions were similar to those used for trying enemy combatants in the Revolutionary War and the Civil War and World War II. Yet the legality of the system I established was challenged in the court, and the Supreme Court ruled that the military commissions needed to be explicitly authorized by the United States Congress. And so I asked Congress for that authority, and they have provided it. With the Military Commission Act, the legislative and executive branches have agreed on a system that meets our national security needs. These military commissions will provide a fair trial, in which the accused are presumed innocent, have access to an attorney, and can hear all the evidence against them. These military commissions are lawful, they are fair, and they are necessary. When I sign this bill into law, we will use these commissions to bring justice to the men believed to have planned the attacks of September the 11th, 2001. We'll also seek to prosecute those believed responsible for the attack on the USS Cole, which killed 17 American sailors six years ago last week. We will seek to prosecute an operative believed to have been involved in the bombings of the American embassies in Kenya and Tanzania, which killed more than 200 innocent people and wounded 5,000 more. With our actions, we will send a clear message to those who kill Americans: We will find you and we will bring you to justice.
[JURIST] A lawyer for former Guantanamo Bay detainee Murat Kurnaz [AI case sheet; chronology, PDF], a Turkish citizen who is also a legal resident of Germany, said Tuesday that Germany is investigating allegations of abuse by German soldiers. Kurnaz, who spent almost five years at the US prison camp in Guantanamo Bay [JURIST news archive] before being returned to Germany [JURIST report] in August, has alleged that German soldiers slammed his head into the ground and pulled him by the hair in front of US soldiers in Afghanistan. Kurnaz has also claimed [JURIST report] that he had been subjected to torture, physical abuse and sexual humiliation by US interrogators while at Guantanamo. Kurnaz's lawyer said investigations into the alleged German abuse are being conducted by state prosecutors in the city of Potsdam and by the German Defense Ministry [official website, English version]. Kurnaz has also agreed to cooperate with a parliamentary inquiry that is investigating the possible cooperation between German officials and the US Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) [official website].If the allegations by Kurnaz are proven to be true, Germany may face further embarrassment after accusations that the government was involved in US rendition flights [JURIST news archive] through Europe. Khaled el-Masri [JURIST news archive], a German citizen born in Kuwait, has already testified [JURIST report] about his alleged rendition to Afghanistan by US intelligence agents. Reuters has more.
[JURIST] The trial of six suspected Islamic militants accused of planning an attack against Dutch politicians began Monday in the Netherlands. The defendants include twenty-year-old Samir Azzouz [Wikipedia profile], whose previous acquittal sparked intense criticism of Dutch anti-terrorism laws. Azzouz has been arrested three times in the Netherlands [JURIST news archive] and was acquitted last year of participating in a terrorist conspiracy [JURIST report]. A search of his home uncovered bomb-making materials, a nuclear reactor, and maps of the Dutch Parliament [official website], but the court ruled that although he had a "terrorist intent," his activities were not in the stages of posing a real threat. After his acquittal and a public outcry, Dutch legislators adopted more stringent anti-terror measures [JURIST report] prohibiting membership in terrorist organizations and recruiting for such groups.In October 2005, Azzouz was rearrested after increased surveillance by Dutch security officials who suspected Azzouz and his co-defendants of plotting a new attack on the headquarters of the AIVD Dutch security forces [official website]. Prosecutors outlined new evidence against Azzouz before the court Monday, including a suicide-bomber video that he recorded, possession of automatic weapons and ammunition, and jihad training materials. Police also uncovered a list of home addresses for Dutch politicians [AP report], including Prime Minister Jan Peter Balkenende [official website]. A verdict against the six men is expected next month. Reuters has more.
[JURIST] The number of hate crimes committed in the US in 2005 fell 6 percent when compared to 2004 numbers, but the percentage of race-based incidents increased slightly, according to figures in a new report [website; press release] from the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) [official website]. In 2005, police forces across the country reported 7,163 hate crimes based on race, ethnicity, sexual orientation, religion, and disabilities, while 7,649 incidents were reported in 2004. The number of crimes based on race made up 54.7 percent of all reported hate crimes last year, which is higher than the 52.9 percent reported in 2004. Crimes based on religious beliefs made up 17 percent of the total and sexual orientation crimes made up just over 14 percent.The FBI report indicates that in half of the hate crimes, the victims were assaulted including six murders and three rapes, while the other half of the crimes were reports of intimidation. Of the known perpetrators, 60 percent were white and 20 percent were black. The report was based on information gathered from police agencies across the US, including state, city, county, tribal, and federal law enforcement bodies. In 2004, the FBI reported an increase in racially motivated hate crimes [JURIST report] over those committed in 2003. AP has more.
[JURIST] Two terror suspects whose movement had been restricted under control orders [UK backgrounder; BBC backgrounder] in the UK were reported as missing Monday. One of the individuals is an Iraqi who appears to have been missing for several months, while the other suspect, a British man of Pakistani origin, escaped through the window of a mental health facility earlier this month. UK Home Office Minister Tony McNulty [official profile] said that he does not believe British citizens are at risk and responded to criticism that the public should have been informed sooner [Liberty press release] by saying everyone who had a need to know was told. The police have begun an intensive search for the two men and airports and ports have also been put on notice.Under the Prevention of Terrorism Act 2005 [text], Britain allows control orders [JURIST report] when individuals are suspected of involvement in terrorist activities, but there is insufficient evidence to support prosecution. The orders can mandate that the suspects be confined to their homes and not have any communication with others. Earlier this year, a British court ruled [JURIST report] that control orders breach a suspect's human rights, but did not go as far to say that it is illegal for the Home Office to authorize the orders.

If you had to go into a Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu death match with your precious iPhone 4, which case would you be better off taking with you -- the Golla Stunt Pouch or Otterbox Defender? Soft, plush fabric with the security of a magnetic flap and belt loop, or hard plastic beneath flexible silicone in a easy on, easy off holster? That's the challenge they put to me and my husband, Antony in the debut episode of TiPb's Amazing Case, our hardcore, case vs case tests of strength, durability, and performance.
We figure if either -- or both -- of these cases can survive being slammed to the mats, rolled on and over, pinned and punished, then they can survive pretty much whatever normal, day-to-day use throws at them.
Follow on after the jump for the tale of the tape, and the give-away!
Golla Stunt is perfectly named for the stunts we're pulling in TiPb's Amazing Case. It's a side-loader and claims durable fabric and a magnetic flap that'll keep your iPhone 4 secure and scratch-free. The belt loop, while harder to take on and off, also means it'll stay on until it's ripped off. There's also a zippered pocket inside for your credit cards, ID, cash, gym membership, or hospital card (depending how the stunt ends!). And if the dark tones of the Stunt don't knock you out, there are a ton of other colors and styles to choose from.
The Otterbox Defender is rugged in the rock-em-sock-em tradition, and promises protection from drops, bumps, dust, and shock. The screen is covered, the casing is covered, even the buttons and ports are covered. The silicone outer skin and the hard plastic shell are a one-two punch of protection, and notched inside its holster, it clips, it swivels, and it secures your iPhone to your belt yet lets you snap it off in an instant when needed.
Check out the video above to see the results of our Golla Stunt Pouch and Otterbox Defender Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu death-match, then head on over to the TiPb iPhone 4 accessory store, find your favorite Golla bag (they've got tons of styles) and paste the link in the comments below. We'll pick a couple of you and send you Golla bags of your very own. (Make sure you leave a valid email address so we can contact you if you win). US mailing address required.
Are you ready? (Are you ready?) Bring it!

This video is great, especially what happened between 2:00 -2:03. Looks like the guy was totally unprepared for that.
http://store.tipb.com/golla-gavin-phone-wallet/4A193A6818.htm This seems very nice to me, thanks.
Another vote for the Golla Gavin. I like the horizontal layout and the interesting design on the front.
This one seems real cool!
I'm really liking the style on this top-loader.
Good luck to everyone!
Golla makes some nice cases.
I'm glad there is a quality case that doesn't scratch your iPhone itself.http://store.tipb.com/golla-gavin-phone-wallet/4A193A6818.htm
Took a while to get through traffic, hopefully worth the wait :)
I like this Golla case!
Terrible comparison, not very funny. Already have an OtterBox on it's way to me, so I'll have this one:http://store.tipb.com/golla-ray-slim-mobile-bag/4A193A6827.htm
Hey, Georgia was awesome and if I win I want this case.http://store.tipb.com/golla-sabine-smart-bag/4A193A6808.htm
She rocks all the videos!!! She hilarious!!!!
I could always use a good new case!
I like this one. Thanks for the chane to win something, and also thanks for all of the great information you provide me with. :]
Like the vid. I totally disagree with Anthony and anyone else. The Otterbox case is a great looking case. So what, it's a little bulky. But it's still thinner than the previous one made for 3G. Otterbox is a very stylish case that was very well done.
It kind of reminds me of a black kevlar jacket and might match a couple of black shirts I own!
Thanks TiPb!
Hmmmm... why are you wrestling in bathrobes? A little strange, no? :-)
Anyway, I'll take whatever. As long as Georgia can personally deliver. In that bathrobe. Sorry Rene.
A great video! Awesome job, very entertaining.... http://store.tipb.com/golla-catch-phone-pocket/4A193A7033.htm

This will be great to take my iphone with me on my runs without being too preoccupied with getting sweat on the phone or dropping it! I can cary a key and ID with me too.
I need this one !! I already cracked the screen on my first iPhone 4. Paying $600.00 for a new one sucked !!!! http://store.tipb.com/otterbox-defender-series-case/4A104A7227.htm
My current case is just not that comfortable.
Here's My Phone... I'm Currently Using an Otterbox, which is cool sometimes... but def not as comfy.
My fav of the lot: http://store.tipb.com/golla-blaze-smart-bag/4A193A6815.htm
Quality stuff it looks like from these guys.
If I win, I'll take the Defender by OtterBox! It served me well with my 3GS, it'll do it again.
Love the Podcasts and the site. Hook it up = http://store.tipb.com/golla-blaze-smart-bag/4A193A6815.htm

Using their own bluetooth client.
Already seen this a couple weeks back.
When will this be released? I have a folding BT keyboard that I bought for a WM phone a few years ago.
Vome to think of it, I never used it then so I doubt if I'll use it now.
I think he is saying that Apple never planned to make their keyboards usable with the touch.
This is great news ...I think.
Able to use a a bluetooth keyboard,Bluetooth car kit or hands free.
All we need now is a voice activated answer like the Sony Ericssons used to have and it will be Iphone with an untouch srceen.
You are cooler than the rest then..
we at the ibpt (iphone bluetooth project) are good friends with ralph and applaud him for his work
dont u mean ibtp? well w.e...are your methods similar to the video shown? Oh and did you ever work out that thing with medevil? I havnt seen his app yet...
I'm excited about this. I look fwd to using it in the future. :-)
This will be great!!! I used to use a portable keyboard with my Palm Treo 650 and wished it was available for the iPhone. I would not be opposed to carrying a keyboard in my bag. Sometimes a full laptop just isn't needed. I guess that's totally subjective in light of the various walks of life. I'm looking forward to putting this discovery to good use~
Does anyone know if it will work with roll out keyboards like I had with my PPC 8700? That would be nice to dust that thing off and get some use out of it.
Hey this so cool, I have an Apple wireless keyboard, I have been dying to be able to do this. Where can I get the app? I can't find it in Cydia. All I need now is to hook my 22" monitor to the iPhone to make it a true Mac Mini!!! )
We managed to get an external keyboard working on iPhone OS 2.0 with no jailbreaking:
iPhone Keyboard - no Jailbreaking required, using 2.0 SDK | Perceptive Development Labs
I have a great bluetooth keyboard that I would never use with this tweak. Couple it with VNC though and I may just give it a whirl.

Hmm... That's a tough nut to crack without seeing the module. A typo in the .info file or in one of the hook names could stop everything. I assume you have error reporting set to E_ALL....
Disable versus uninstall
These are two separate things. The uninstall hook does not fire when you disable a module, only when you actually uninstall it (see the uninstall tab on the modules page).
Have you tried saving the DB, creating the content type as closely as possible using fields, taking an SQL dump, then loading the saved DB back in and creating the content type with your module and dumping again? Then you could compare the two dumps and see if your module is missing some field/setting/step.
Also you might consider trying to do as much as possible with the features module and use that as a starting point.

Firmware update
Guess I didn't search hard enough...
Firmware update
The updater won't work in Virtual PC without some extra hardware. VPC doesn't have direct hardware access to an ATA drive such as your Pioneer drive (I have the same one.) But for some reason VPC does have direct hardware access to the drive if its connected through USB. This means that if you have an external USB case and you install your Pioneer drive in it you should be able to run the firmware updater in VPC. |
