James Hanse served as tosat- master al the annual fall banquet of the Freeport Business Men's Associa¬ tion Tuesday evening In the Crysta* Lake House. Vlllage President Roland M. Lamb, speaking of the local government, said that probably $2,500 more would be asked of tbe taxpayers next year for police purpoees, which would mean an improvement in the present signal alarm, with more stations than the twelve already in use. He also said that notwithstanding the efflclency of the volunteer tire de¬ partment, the Installation of a paid depariment, with men always on duty, would produce more satisfactory serv¬ ice, and a great reduction in Insur¬ ance rates. In reference to boulevard lighting, which is being urged by the Business Men's Association, he said that Rock¬ ville Centre had set a good precedent for all the villages of the Island to follow, and that the vlllage board would allow |6 per lamp ttjward oper¬ ation If the property holders would Install them. Othe rspeakers were President John J. Dolan, Vlllage Trustee Ernest S. Randall, Police Justice Clinton M. Flint and W. Harvey Baegle, repre¬ senting the Far Rockaway Business Men's Association. A conspiracy to defeat the consti¬ tution in order that a new convention may be held In 1917 under different auspices has come to light during the lasl two weeks, according to Henry L. Stimson, in a statement mad.e pub¬ lic today by the Committee for the Adoption of the Constitution. This conspiracy, he asserted. Is voiced by some of the newspapers, and evidently originated in the neighborhood of Tammany Hall. "Let up-Stale voters beware liow they play Into the hands of this con¬ spiracy," said Mr. Stimson. "Let them remember the attempt that was made to gain control of the last convention by those same conspirators. Let them remember the attempt that was made to gain control of the last covention by those same conspirators. Let them remember the fraudulent votes cast In the 'gas house' district controlled by Mr. Murphy in the special election in .fune, iyi4, which subsequently was brought to light in a court investiga¬ tion.

ACK- ERSON OF ROCKVILLE CENTRE —HOME DECORATED. up-Stale Republicans or Democrais would prefer the efforts or results of a convention in 1917 controlled in the interests of Tammany Hall to the one ot la^t summer presided over by Elihu Root." I have been asked to stale briefly the principal reasons why, in my opinion, the revised constitution, which is to be voted upon on Nov. 2, should be adopts by the voters of the State. « The new constitution seeks lo in¬ troduce the principle ot responsibility Into the government ot the State. Our Stale government has not been effl¬ cient. The cost ot carrying it on has been rapidly increasing; our debts, during the past twenly years have in¬ creased until they are the largest in the Union, both in the aggregate and per capita. Furthermore, througli our faulty system, a system of boss gov¬ ernment has grown up which really rules the State instead ot the duly elected public offlcials. In brief, the new constitution seeks to meet these evils by the following provisions: First.—It would reform the execu¬ tive branch of the government and would make it responsible to the people by grouping the present 152 unregulated branches, bureaus and commissions Into 17 departments. It would make the heads of these de¬ partmenls responsible lo the gover¬ nor. In order that he may be respon¬ sible to the people for the execution ot the laws. Second.^^It would reform the leg¬ islature by taking away the petty lo- pubjic so that the people of the entire State can know just how much money it is proposed to spend and what the resources and liabilities of the State are. Fifth.—It would reform the debts of the State by introducing the serial bond system, which would greatly save the people's money. For in¬ stance, if adopted, it will save over $10,000,000 out of the principal and inierest of the $27,000,000 debt which is proposed to be authorized this fall lo flnish our canals. Sixth.—It would give us a much larger measure of home rule in bolh our cities and counties than we now have and will give the local taxpayers a voice in matters which are now forc¬ ed upon them against their wishes by the action of the geneeral legislation. Seventh.—It would provide greater safety and belter administration for the State's forests, waters, flsh and game. Eighth.—It contains many other incidental reforms in the different branches of our government which space does nol allow me to enumer¬ ate. All ot the foregoing propositions are coniained in the main constitu¬ tion which is voted on as Quesiion No. 1, ot the three questions on the conslitutional ballot. The apportionment article is sub¬ mitted separately as Question No. 2. It makes no change in the existing constitution except that, if adopted, it will save the State $500,000 when¬ ever an apporUonment is made, by using the federal census Instead of re¬ visions within the county. This has been desired in both Westchester, Nassau and Suffolk counties, but the old constitution does not permfE it. These are all great, beneftcient re- form_s. I believe the constitution, as a whole, is the most important and valuable proposition that has been submitted to an American Slale since IS7. I have heard no objection to il which was worthy of consideration. Some ot the police and flremen are said lo oppose It because they fear It would deprive them of tlii- right of court review. They are wrong. The constitution does not touch their courl review. Some of the teachers are said lo oppose it because they fear it would turn over control over their salaries lo the local authorities. They are wrong. The new constitution leaves the entire control over schools and teachers wilh the Slale authorities. Some labor organizations are said to oppose it because they fear it would give greater authority to inilitary court martials over labor. Tliey are wrong. The new constitution is the same as the constitution has been for 138 years and labor is entirely pro¬ tected from the jurisdiction of court martials by the present provision ot the bill ot rights. It lias been asserted that the tax¬ alion arlicle would introduce a sys¬ tem ot inquisition. That is not so. The new article would create no greater likelihood ot inquisition than the old constitution. A letler has been circulated accus¬ ing the convention of betraying our forests and other natural resources to private Interests. This letter is false and mendacious. The new con¬ stitution would better protect our forests and other resources than they are pi'otectd af presenl. Some ot the politicians are said to be against 11 because they tear it would diminish their power. They are righl. It would greatly restore the authoriiy ot the people. II would, in my opinion, be an un- measurable misfortune to the Stale It the new constitution should tail.

Early Deficit Sinks Wingnuts at Home
Reporter: Wingnuts
The Wichita Wingnuts (35-26) lost 10-5 to the Fargo-Moorhead RedHawks (38-23) at Lawrence-Dumont Stadium on Sunday afternoon.
Third baseman Eric Campbell drove in seven of Fargo's 10 runs, helping the RedHawks open a 9-0 lead after four innings.
With the bases loaded and no outs in the top of the first, Campbell hit a ground rule double over the left field fence to drive in the game's first two runs.
In the top of the second, Buddy Sosnoskie singled through the right side to score Carlo Cota from second base. Nic Jackson followed with an RBI single through the right side that brought in Zach Penprase from third. Campbell capped off the inning with a two-run double off the left field fence.
A Penprase walk and a Sosnoskie single to center in the top of the fourth led to Campbell's three-run homer to left that made it 9-0 in favor of the RedHawks.
Wingnuts' starter Dumas Garcia took the loss, allowing nine earned runs on eight hits in three and one-third innings. Garcia walked four and struck out four.
Ryan Khoury led off the bottom of the sixth with a solo home run to left to get Wichita on the board. Khoury added a two-run single to left in the bottom of the seventh that sliced Fargo's lead to 9-3. John Rodriguez hit a sacrifice fly later in the inning to bring the Wingnuts within five runs.
Mark Wagner and Gerardo Avila slugged back-to-back doubles to produce Wichita's fifth run in the bottom of the eighth. Kevin Fuqua relieved Daniel Morari after Avila's RBI double and recorded the final five outs to finish the game.
Fargo's 10th run came in the top of the ninth on a Ryan Stovall RBI single to center.
Aaron Shafer started and won for the RedHawks, allowing four earned runs on seven hits in six and one-third innings. Shafer walked four and struck out three.
Andrew Aizenstadt, James Baker, and Jeff Nadeau combined for four and one-third scoreless relief innings in which they allowed just two hits.
Avila has hit safely in seven straight. Jairo Perez's hitting streak came to an end at nine games.
Garcia was signed by the Wingnuts prior to Sunday's game. A sixth-year pro, the right-hander entered with a 26-19 record and a lifetime 3.68 ERA in 374.1 career innings. Garcia has spent parts of two seasons at the Triple-A level and three at the Double-A level. The 29-year-old appeared in 27 games this season as a reliever for the Atlantic League's York Revolution.
Wichita opens a four-game series at home against the Amarillo Sox on Monday night at 7:05 p.m. Anthony Capra starts for the Wingnuts and faced Sox' right-hander Philip Bartleski. Individual tickets can be purchased by calling (316) 755-SEAT, or by visiting www.selectaseat.com

Streamlined News: Ben Titley Heads to Canada; Sun Yang Makes News in China; Australians Fast in Nationals
September 13, 2012
PHOENIX, Arizona, September 13. ONE of Great Britain's top coaches is packing up and moving across the Atlantic Ocean to Toronto, Canada, to coach at the National Swim Center there. Ben Titley has been coaching at Loughborough University for 16 years, putting at least one swimmer in the Olympic final in the 2004, 2008 and 2012 Olympics. He guided Liam Tancock to a world championship title in the 50 backstroke in 2009 and 2011 as well as his world record in 2009. Two of his swimmers won Olympic medals in 2008: A silver for David Davies in the 10K marathon and bronze for Joanne Jackson in the 400 freestyle.
The attention at the Chinese University Games has suddenly shifted from the pool to the deck, as Olympic champion Sun Yang is getting attention for his demands at the meet. A blogger in China initially reported that Sun requested a team of male bodyguards, as well as his mother, who acts as his agent, accompany him into the locker room. Also insinuated in the blogger's report that was later removed was that Sun's mother hit a cameraman with a water bottle when he got too aggressive. Sun has become the sports world's biggest celebrity after winning two golds in London. Sun was able to put all the controversy behind him in the pool today, winning the 400 free with a 3:47.23. He is likely to head back to Australia to train with Denis Cotterell soon, escaping all the pressures that follow him whenever he is at home.
Also at the Chinese meet, Cheng Feiyi swam a 54.32 in the 100 back, about six tenths off the time he swam to get eighth place in the final in London.
Robert Hurley, known mostly as a middle distance freestyler, won the 100 backstroke today at the Australian short course nationals in 50.98. Christian Sprenger, the silver medalist in the 100 breast in London, won that event today with a 58.70.

[JURIST] The UN said Friday that it had reached a "broad understanding" [press release] with Pakistan on logistical issues and questions of access to government officials central to a potential investigation into the assassination of former Pakistani Prime Minister Benazir Bhutto [BBC obituary; JURIST news archive]. UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon met Thursday with Pakistani Foreign Minister Makhdoom Shah Mahmood Qureshi [official profile] to discuss the possible creation of UN commission. Bhutto was killed in December 2007 at a political rally in Rawalpindi after she returned to the country from exile to lead her party in parliamentary elections. In April, the National Assembly of Pakistan [official website] formally called for a UN probe [JURIST report] into Bhutto's assassination. Bhutto widower Asif Ali Zardari [BBC profile] has repeatedly called for an international probe [JURIST report] into her death and has accused President Pervez Musharraf's regime of involvement in the assassination. The prospect of an international probe into Bhutto's killing has nonetheless garnered some criticism [Guardian report] within Pakistan itself, and the US, supporting Musharraf, has taken the position that a UN investigation is unnecessary. AP has more. BBC News has additional coverage.In March, Pakistani authorities filed preliminary charges [JURIST report] against top Taliban leader Baitullah Mehsud [BBC profile] in relation to the killing. Meshud, who is the commander of the Tehrik-e-Taliban, a group of Islamic militants with links to al Qaeda, has denied any involvement in Bhutto's death.
[JURIST] The Flemish Parliament [official website, in Flemish] approved the new EU reform treaty [JURIST news archive] Friday, finalizing Belgian approval of the document, also known as the Treaty of Lisbon [official website; PDF text]. Jose Manuel Barroso [official profile], the president of the European Commission [official website], congratulated Belgium on its approval of the treaty in a statement [text, PDF] released Friday. According to Barroso's statement, twenty-two European countries have now approved the agreement, which had already received approval from the national government and all other Belgian regions except for Flanders. Reuters has more. FlandersNews has local coverage.Some EU countries have delayed ratifying the treaty after Irish voters rejected it [JURIST reports] in June. The future of the pact is currently in doubt as it must be approved by all 27 EU states in order to take effect. EU leaders signed the reform treaty [JURIST report] last December, and 14 countries had ratified the document [JURIST news archive] before the Irish rejection. In 2005, an earlier draft European constitution [JURIST news archive] also failed when voters in France and the Netherlands [JURIST reports] rejected the proposal in national referenda.
[JURIST] A judge in the US District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia [official website] Friday sentenced [DOJ press release] a former US Department of Defense (DOD) official to almost five years in prison for disclosing national defense information to Chinese agents. Gregg William Bergersen, an analyst at the DOD's Defense Security Cooperation Agency [official website], pleaded guilty [DOJ press release; JURIST report] to conspiracy for providing classified military information to Tai Kuo, a Louisiana businessman, who in turn gave the information to a Chinese foreign official. Kuo also pleaded guilty to conspiracy and could be sentenced to life in prison. In May, Yu Xin Kang [CICentre materials], a Chinese woman who is a permanent resident of New Orleans, pleaded guilty [JURIST report] to charges of aiding and abetting espionage by acting as an intermediary between Kuo and Bergersen. Reuters has more.In another Chinese espionage case, Dongfan "Greg" Chung, a former Chinese-American engineer at Boeing [corporate website], was arrested in February and charged with stealing corporate trade secrets [PDF indictment] related to aerospace programs and turning them over to China [JURIST news archive]. Chung's and Bergersen's activities were allegedly linked by Chi Mak [CI Centre backgrounder; JURIST report], a Chinese-American engineer sentenced [JURIST report] in March for conspiring to smuggle sensitive naval intelligence data to China.
[JURIST] A panel of the US Court of Appeals for the DC Circuit rejected [opinion, PDF; CREW press release] a Bush administration appeal against a 2007 order [PDF text] requiring that White House visitor logs be released in compliance with the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) [text]. The court held that it lacked jurisdiction to consider the appeal because the lower court had only ordered the White House to process a FOIA request rather than to disclose all documents. In 2007, the district court ruled [opinion, PDF] that White House visitor logs were public documents [press release] and are thus subject to FOIA requests. The Bush administration had argued that the logs are presidential property, meaning that they would fall outside the domain of the FOIA. Advocacy group Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington (CREW) [advocacy website] brought the lawsuit, seeking logs regarding the White House visits of prominent conservative religious figures, including James Dobson and Jerry Falwell. AP has more.In October 2006, US District Judge Ricardo Urbina ordered the Secret Service to release visitor logs [JURIST report] for the personal residence and office of Vice President Dick Cheney. The order was issued following a lawsuit by the Washington Post, which had requested the logs in June while researching White House ties to political lobbyists. The Justice Department filed an appeal against the order [JURIST report] in December 2006.
[JURIST] Members of the Pakistan lawyers' movement [JURIST news archive] rallied Thursday against the Pakistan People's Party (PPP) [party website] and party co-chairman Asif Ali Zardari for failing to reinstate judges deposed after the declaration of emergency [JURIST report] by President Pervez Musharraf [official profile; JURIST news archive] in November 2007. Among the deposed judges are a number of justices of the Supreme Court of Pakistan [official website], including former Chief Justice Iftikhar Mohammed Chaudhry [JURIST news archive]. Speakers at the protest, including prominent lawyers' movement leader Hamid Khan, urged the PPP and the Pakistani government to implement the conditions of the Murree Accord [News backgrounder], and indicated that the movement would not accept judges who had been appointed as a result of the declaration of emergency. From Pakistan, the News has more.Last week, the reconstituted Supreme Court of Pakistan upheld Musharraf's declaration of emergency rule and the ouster of the judges [JURIST report]. Days before the judgment, Pakistani Supreme Court Bar Association President Aitzaz Ahsan [JURIST news archive] strongly criticized US policy on Pakistan [JURIST report], including its refusal to condemn the declaration of emergency rule. In June, members of the lawyers' movement concluded a "long march" protest [JURIST report] from Lahore to Islamabad, calling for the reinstatement of the dismissed judges. Earlier that month, the Pakistan Muslim League - Nawaz called for Musharraf's impeachment [JURIST report] and released a "charge sheet" outlining misuse of presidential authority, including the dismissal of the country's superior court judges.
[JURIST] Singapore's Ministry of Law [official website] Wednesday rejected claims by the International Bar Association's Human Rights Institute (IBAHRI) [official website] that the country lacks an independent judiciary and fails to meet international standards of human rights. In its response [press release] to the claims, the Ministry rejected the IBAHRI's call for the country to provide increased protections of the freedoms of speech, press, and assembly, and to ensure a more politically insulated judiciary. The Ministry said the group was biased in its assessment and that the country had already responded [PDF letter] to such concerns:
Singapore, like nearly all countries, subscribes to the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. Human rights are interpreted and implemented according to the specific histories, cultures and circumstances of each country. Every society must find and decide the appropriate balance between rights and responsibilities for themselves. Human rights groups in IBAHRI have closed ranks with other Western human rights NGOs to prescribe for Singapore and all new countries, especially China, Western norms of liberal democracy as the only way to bring stability and prosperity. They believe that free market policies cannot succeed without Western liberal democracy, and it is their mission to make other societies adopt the Western model.
[JURIST] Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Olmert [official profile] misappropriated approximately $100,000 by double-billing different sources for travel and hotel expenses, Israeli police said Friday after questioning the politician. Olmert's travel agency, Rishon Tours, would allegedly ask various state agencies and charities to pay Olmert's travel bills without telling them that other bodies were also being asked to pay the same bills. The new allegations come as part of a continuing investigation into accusations of corruption surrounding Olmert's relationship with US businessman Morris Talansky. State prosecutors say Olmert personally received cash payments [Jerusalem Post report; JURIST report] from Talansky while serving as a minister of industry, trade and labor. In May, police raided Olmert's offices [JURIST report] in search of evidence. Olmert has denied all wrongdoing. AP has more. Ha'aretz has local coverage.Olmert has been accused of questionable business dealings for the past several years. In April 2007, Olmert was investigated for improperly favoring his supporters [JURIST report] in distributing business grants during his time as trade minister. In January 2007, the Israeli Ministry of Justice announced plans to launch an investigation [JURIST report] into allegations that he promoted the interests of two business associates during the 2005 state sale of Bank Leumi [corporate website]. Throughout these scandals, Olmert has maintained that he is innocent. Law enforcement officials had indicated that the investigation into Olmert revealed evidence that could lead to additional charges [Ha'aretz report].
[JURIST] The Thai Attorney General's Office filed new corruption charges against former Thailand Prime Minister Thaksin Shinawatra [BBC backgrounder; JURIST news archive] in the country's Supreme Court Friday. The charges relate to a 2003 resolution that reduced fees paid by mobile phone companies to state telecommunications agencies. A company then owned by Thaksin's family saw the greatest benefit from the new payment scheme, leading to claims that Thaksin misused his authority for personal gain. Thaksin, who was ousted in a military coup [JURIST report] in 2006, is involved in twenty-four legal actions. On Tuesday, Thaksin went on trial on corruption charges [JURIST report] related to a 2003 land purchase his wife arranged with a government-directed institution despite a ban on officials making business deals with government agencies. AP has more. The Bangkok Post has local coverage.Also this week, the opposition Democrat party announced it would launch an impeachment bid against current Thai Prime Minister Samak Sundaravej [BBC profile] after a series of court decisions against key government officials. On Wednesday, the Thai Constitutional Court [official website, in Thai] dismissed Thai Public Health Minister Chaiya Sasomsup from office after finding he had violated finance laws by not declaring certain assets held by his wife. On Tuesday, the court had ruled [JURIST report] that a June cabinet communique signed by Foreign Minister Noppadon Pattama in support of a World Heritage site on Thailand's border with Cambodia was unconstitutional [PDF press release, in Thai]. Opposition parties moved to seek Noppadon's impeachment, but Noppadon stepped down [Bangkok Post report] Thursday.
[JURIST] Human rights groups and defense lawyers have criticized the refusal of Canadian Prime Minister Stephen Harper [official profile] to interfere with US proceedings against Canadian Guantanamo detainee Omar Khadr [DOD materials; JURIST news archive] in light of documents [text, PDF] released Thursday showing that the Canadian government knew Khadr had been mistreated [JURIST report]. Harper spoke Friday of the severity of the criminal charges against Khadr, and called the Guantanamo process necessary to discover the truth. Harper also stressed that the US has assured Canada that the treatment of Khadr is humane. Amnesty International Canada (AI) [advocacy website] said in an open letter [text, PDF] that the treatment revealed by the documents constitutes torture, and that Canadian inaction is indefensible and unjust:
It is shocking to learn that as far back as five years ago Canadian officials knew of the torture and ill-treatment Omar Khadr had experienced but did not intervene on his behalf. Instead at that time, much as today, the government had insisted that they had received assurances from US officials that Mr. Khadr was being well-treated, in a manner consistent with the spirit of the Geneva Conventions, and that there was therefore no reason for Canada to intervene. Today's revelations underscore how unreliable and hollow those assurances were.
[JURIST] The International Court of Justice (ICJ) [official website] announced that next week it will rule on a Mexican petition [press release, PDF] asking to delay the executions of five Mexicans on death row in the US. Mexican authorities allege that US officials denied the five men the chance to speak with Mexican counselor officers in violation of the 1963 Vienna Convention on Consular Relations [text]. Last month, Mexico asked the ICJ to rule on its request for provisional measures and to clarify a 2004 ruling [ruling and case materials; JURIST report] holding that such executions violated international law. The group of Mexicans includes Jose Ernesto Medellin [ASIL backgrounder; JURIST news archive], who is scheduled to be executed August 5. In May, a Texas court set Medellin's execution date [JURIST report] after the US Supreme Court ruled [JURIST report] in March that President George W. Bush did not have the authority to direct state courts to comply with the ICJ's order for new court hearings. Reuters has more.In 2005, the Mexican Congress voted to remove the death penalty [JURIST report] from the Mexican constitution. While Mexico had not carried out a death sentence in the previous 43 years and regularly refused to hand over suspects to the US who faced a potential death sentence, the practice was still legal in military courts. The same year, the US asked Texas [JURIST report] to rehear the cases of 51 Mexicans sentenced to death in the state after their sentences were deemed improper [ruling and case materials; JURIST report] by the ICJ.
[JURIST] The European Parliament (EP) [official website] voted Thursday to adopt a resolution [text; EP press release] calling on member states to "review and repeal laws and policies that discriminate against the Roma on the basis of race and ethnicity." The EP resolution also calls on the European Commission and EU member states to
enact legislation and policies to support Roma communities while promoting their integration in all fields to launch anti-racism and anti-discrimination programmes in schools, employment and the media and to enhance the exchange of expertise and best practices [sic]
[JURIST] The Italian Chamber of Deputies [official website, in Italian], the country's lower house of parliament, approved legislation [PDF text, in Italian; Draft Law 1442 materials] Thursday that would grant Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi [BBC profile; JURIST news archive] and other high-ranking officials immunity from prosecution while in office. Berlusconi's government proposed the legislation, saying the officials needed to operate without fear of politically motivated prosecutions, but opponents have said the law is specifically tailored to suspend Berlusconi's own trial on corruption charges [JURIST news archive]. The Chamber is also considering public safety legislation [PDF text, in Italian; JURIST report] that would suspend trials for non-violent crimes that occurred before 2002. Supporters say that the measure would help fix the congested criminal law system, but opponents say it is politically motivated because it would also suspend some of the charges against Berlusconi. The immunity law passed the Chamber by a wide margin and is also expected to be approved when considered by the Senate. BBC News has more.Italy has recently faced significant criticism by both advocacy groups and members of the country's judiciary [JURIST reports] for relaxing its anti-corruption measures. The majority of the criticism has been targeted at Berlusconi, who has faced trial on at least six occasions involving charges of false accounting, tax fraud, money laundering, embezzlement, and giving false testimony [JURIST reports]. In October 2007, Italy's highest court of appeals upheld Berlusconi's April 2007 acquittal [JURIST reports] on bribery charges. That trial was initially blocked in 2004 by a bill drafted by Berlusconi ally and later defense lawyer Gaetano Pecorella but went ahead after the bill was struck down as unconstitutional. Berlusconi has said he is innocent on all charges and has accused prosecutors of pursuing a political vendetta against him.
[JURIST] Former UK shadow Home Secretary David Davis [party profile], who resigned [statement text; JURIST report] his parliamentary position in protest over an anti-terror bill [materials; BBC Q/A] in June, won a forced by-election Friday with almost 72% of the vote. In his acceptance speech [text], Davis promised to stand for civil liberties and oppose what he termed "draconian" security measures:
Today, the people of Haltemprice and Howden have delivered a stunning message to the government ... as our campaign has reverberated across the country. Four weeks ago as Gordon Brown stooped into the gutter to rig the vote on 42 days, Ministers crowed that 69% of people supported 42 days. Today just 36% support it. Four weeks ago, the government touted public support for a range of other draconian measures. Today, 71% support my stand against the attacks on British liberty. And in the House of Lords, the last Head of MI5 savaged the government's 42 day proposal. It now lies in tatters, robbed of any remaining credibility. Along with this government. And that's after just 3 weeks.
[JURIST] Arab activist Sami Al-Arian [advocacy website; JURIST news archive] was granted bail Thursday by a judge for the US District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia [official website], but it is speculated that he might be detained by immigration officials upon release. The former University of South Florida (USF) [official website] computer science professor allegedly provided supported to terrorist organizations. Judge Leonie Brinkema [official profile] agreed with the motion for bail [PDF text] made by Al-Arian's lawyers earlier this month, finding that he was neither a flight risk nor a danger to the community. Al-Arian agreed to conditions for his release, such as electronic monitoring, to guarantee his appearance at his criminal contempt hearing scheduled for August. In his blog [post], Al-Arian's lawyer Jonathan Turley said that Brinkema was concerned about government interference with a plea agreement requiring Al-Arian to be deported following completion of his federal prison sentence. Brinkema reportedly said that the plea agreement still applied, preventing US Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) [official website] officials from taking Al-Arian into custody, and that he could not be held indefinitely to prevent his deportation. The Washington Post has more. AP has additional coverage.Al-Arian was arrested in February 2003 [JURIST report] and indicted [PDF text] on charges of supporting terrorism based on comments he made in the wake of 9/11 and his association with an Islamic think tank at USF in the 1990s. In 2005 he was acquitted [JURIST report] on eight of 17 terrorism charges. The next year he pleaded guilty [JURIST report] to one charge of conspiring to provide services to the Palestinian Islamic Jihad [CDI backgrounder] in violation of US law and agreed to be deported after serving a 57-month sentence. Al-Arian then refused to testify before grand juries that were investigating a group of Islamic charities, and he was charged with contempt [JURIST report]. Last year an appeals court upheld [JURIST report] the contempt ruling.
[JURIST] The American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) [advocacy website] filed a lawsuit [complaint, PDF; ACLU press release] against leaders of the US intelligence community on Thursday, acting on behalf of rights groups and activists. Filed in the US District Court for the Southern District of New York, the action challenges the constitutionality [ACLU backgrounder] of the newly-amended Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA) [text; JURIST news archive]. President George W. Bush signed the bill into law [HR 6304 text, PDF; press release] Thursday, allowing wider and less-regulated government monitoring of international communications. Bush said that the law is necessary to help intelligence officials keep the country safe, but critics, including ACLU Executive Director Anthony Romero, have argued [press release] that it violates the Constitution and erodes privacy rights:
Electronic surveillance must be conducted in a constitutional manner that affords the greatest possible protection for individual privacy and free speech rights. The new wiretapping law fails to provide fundamental safeguards that the Constitution unambiguously requires.
[JURIST] The US Fourth Circuit Court of Appeals [official website] ruled [PDF opinion]. Thursday that Virginia's method of execution by lethal injection [JURIST news archive] does not violate the Eighth Amendment ban on cruel and unusual punishment. Virginia death row inmate Christopher Scott Emmett [advocacy profile] had challenged the procedure, arguing that there is an unacceptable risk that the drugs used in the lethal injection cocktail would cause pain before taking their full effect. The court based its ruling on the US Supreme Court [official website] decision in Baze v. Rees [Duke Law case backgrounder; JURIST report], in which the court held Kentucky's use of a three-drug lethal injection cocktail [DPIC backgrounder] does not constitute cruel and unusual punishment. Judge William Traxler wrote the majority opinion, where he spoke about the similarities between Kentucky's lethal injection method approved in Baze and the method used in Virginia:
Virginia is one of the thirty states that has adopted the three-drug combination discussed in Baze. Although there are some minor variations, the protocol is largely identical to that of Kentucky and, like Kentucky's, includes a number of safeguards designed to ensure that the lethal chemicals are properly administered intravenously in a quick, humane fashion.Having reviewed the record de novo, we conclude that Virginia's protocol is substantially similar to Kentucky's protocol and that Emmett has failed as a matter of law to demonstrate a substantial or objectively intolerable risk that he will receive an inadequate dose of thiopental, particularly in light of the training and safeguards implemented by Virginia prior to and during the execution process. [I]t is enough to observe that Virginia is not constitutionally required to eliminate every possibility that pain might occur or every unnecessary risk that may exist. Because Virginia's rapid-flow induction procedure does not present a substantial or objectively intolerable risk of serious harm to Emmett, its use is a judgment call entrusted to the officials of the Department of Corrections.

CHARLESTON, W.Va. -- West Virginia University has suspended plans to award a lucrative media rights contract to IMG College and West Virginia Media Holdings.
The university started a review of the pending contract last week after Morgantown businessman John Raese raised questions about the proposed deal -- valued at $110 million over 12 years.
"It appears clear to me that WVU, in their procurement process, didn't follow their own rules," said Bob Gwynne, a lawyer for Raese-owned Greer Industries.
WVU spokesman Becky Lofstead declined comment Wednesday, citing the ongoing contract review.
Last week, Raese sent an accusatory letter to WVU President James Clements about the proposed third-tier media rights contract. Raese alleged that top WVU officials created "an appearance of impropriety" and violated a written pact to keep confidential the pending contract.
Raese said athletic director Oliver Luck and Board of Governors Chairman Drew Payne disclosed details about the media rights deal.
Payne, who has acknowledged talking to Luck about the contract, serves on West Virginia Media Holdings' board of directors and had a major stake in the company until last year. Payne, who stands to benefit financially from the contract, has repeatedly said he played no role in the deal.
WVU board member Dave Alvarez also owns shares of West Virginia Media, according to a list of company shareholders.

Comments from Picturedrome
Showing 1 - 25 of 63 comments
This is how the Palace first appeared in 1913 as a purpose-built cinema. The front was modernised in the 1930s.
How do we get rid of the unnecessary advert?
Hippodrome, Corporation Street, St Helens, Merseyside. WA10. Architect: J A Brown (1902 Empire Palace Theatre). It was called Hippodrome by 1904 when the proprietors were Thomas Barrasford, W Sley & F Willmot. Proprietor: Frank E. Spring's Circuit (date?). Proprietor: South Lancs Theatres, +1929 KYB. Closed 1937, the auditorium was completely remodelled for cinema use. Reopened 8 August 1938 as New Hippodrome, with Anna Neagle in "Victoria the Great". Renamed Hippodrome. Proprietor: Empire Cinema (Wigan) Ltd, by 1940 to 1943 KYBs. Closed 31 August 1963. Reopened 1 Sep 1963 as a Bingo Hall. Later Surewin Bingo by the1980s. Still operating (2013) as Hippodrome Bingo.
Are you sure this was built in 1873? The Salvation Army was still very much in its infancy in the 1870s, and I doubt it had reached the provinces until the 1880s, with purpose-built citadels arriving much later.
This wasn't built as a cinema. It was built as the "Palace of Light" for the showman C. B. Cochran, and opened 4 July 1908. It originally had 1,000 light bulbs on the exterior. Cochran was well-known at the time, and presented all kinds of live performances, usually called "Cochran Revues". However, he didn't present films. It was renamed the Gem in 1910, which is when it probably became a cinema. Incidently, there are hardly any purpose-built cinemas with original frontages dating from before 1911. The front of the Picture House in Birmingham survives. The Electric in Portobello Road, the Bedford (Edit: since demolished) and the Kensington, both in Liverpool survive. All 3 opened in December 1910. There might (arguably) be one or two more from 1910, but it has to be admitted that original cinema facades are now an endangered species.
The ABC Princess wasn't on the Promenade, and was opposite the Metropole Hotel (not Theatre), whose front was on the Promenade.
If anybody needs correcting, it's the late Harold Ackroyd. I soon learned not to repeat anything he said unless I could find the original source. The operating company at the year ending 31 December 1957 was the "Futurist (Liverpool) Ltd". Alderman Alfred Levy was the Managing Director. By March 1960 it was an ABC house.
Eric. The Seaforth Stella was demolished years ago. You might be interested to know that the police station next to the Palladium has been demolished, and the site redeveloped.
I've added a potted history to my photo, and made the other photo private, so here it is again: http://www.flickr.com/photos/44435674@N00/5936795277/in/photostream
Hi, Eric. Your link doesn't work for me. I live in Liverpool and know what you mean. It looks in a very sorry state, approaching its Centenary.
Yes, the two buildings are much older than the cinema.
You can see where the one facing London Road was cut short to allow for the entrance to the cinema.
Ma Egerton's was originally on the site where the Forum was built in Lime Street, so it would have moved after June 1929.
(I've got a copy of a press cutting from June 1929).
That story you heard must have been from somebody who got their facts wrong.

Sorry, Ian.
Your name is the only one that appears.
Who is CT?
Hi, Laura.
It was Ian – being rather premature – who says: "Demolition of the Odeon began in November 2010, and was completed in March 2011."
If I didn't know the truth, a statement like that would have prevented me from visiting the site to take photos, thinking that there's nothing left.
The demolition will continue, but will take a while.
Apart from the fact it's a huge building, there are also buildings at two corners which will remain.
Slight correction.
It wasn't called the Super Royal.
As a cinema it was officially called the Royal, and like others in the W Gordon circuit it had Super added after its name in some Press adverts.

It's incorrect to say that demolition has been completed.
At the time of writing (March 20), only the centre of the building is part-demolished.
There will be plenty of photo opportunities for quite a while yet.
The present building was opened (or reopened) on 28 February 1938.
Architect: George Coles.
750 seats.
There had been a cinema on the site at least as far back as 1929 – whether it was completely demolished for the 1938 version is unknown.
Said to have closed in the 1980s, when it had 530 seats.
In my notes I have that it was open by 5 July 1909.
Unfortunately, I didn't note my source.

Hello Everyone! My name is Calder Cahill and I've recently been selected as a Top 50 finalist to the MLB Fan Cave. If you're not familiar, the Fan Cave allows me to watch every baseball game this season in New York City and represent the ROCKIES on a national level -- something I do anyway on my couch at home, only now it won't be as socially frowned upon. If you can all help by clicking the link and voting for me (as many times as you want), that would be super appreciated. Thanks Purple Row fans!!! Calder C
Troy Tulowitzki pranks one of the MLB Fan Cave finalists. He definitely has the "keep a straight face" thing down, but man, he does NOT crack up enough to alleviate that poor guy's anxiety.

Photo: Thinkstock 1. "I love how you're always working out."
I know that French mothers sashay around in chic blazers and skirts and such, and that dressing like a human being makes you feel more like one, but here's the thing: Yoga pants and sneakers, while not exactly flattering, really do the trick when you need to slide under the couch to scrape peanut butter off the springs. So no, no, I'm not working out soon, or even anytime today, or maybe ever. And yes, I'm wearing stretchy pants and a hoodie. Do stay-at-home dads get flak for dressing like college students during finals week? No, no they do not. They get looks of adoration for being at home at all. 2. "So, honey... dinner, dancing or tequila shots?" Like so many off-putting comments, people we love say this with love. Of course it is. But after 12-plus hours of feeding, chasing, playing, teaching, disciplining, cleaning up, comforting, protecting, peeling off the ceiling and feeding again, in a repeating loop every 15 minutes or so, once spouses get home, you know what we want to do? Not have a nice dinner together (also known as: even more feeding and cleaning), not anything. Nothing. All the way to 8:30 p.m., when we pass out against our wills. 3. "Too bad about all the dough your parents spent on underwater-welding school." My friend has been a devoted, happy stay-at-home mother for about a decade now. Her elderly mother (who was previously also a stay-at-home parent) still struggles to understand what went wrong. "She had a good career," the mother is known to say, shaking her head. "I know she didn't get fired. I just don't know what happened." Choosing to stay home with your kids is often thought of as an elaborate ruse designed to mask a larger, sexier failure. As in: "You must have lost that awesome underwater-welding job you had in your 20s; why else would you be in your current predicament? Why would you do something as unambitious, unexciting and unpaid as guide small people through their early childhoods if you had the option of doing something, you know, real? All of which reveals the assumption that the hands-on rearing of the young is a kind of a vacation from work. To which all stay-at-home parents in the world respond in unison: "Ha! Ha! Ha!" Next: "You look like you could use some you-time" Advertisement

:: The Failure of Western Human Rights Policy: Fallacies and Misconceptions about China
Many Western governments, including the United States and the European Union, are engaged in bilateral "Human Rights Dialogue" with China. This dialogue is adopted as the primary instrument to promote human rights in the People's Republic of China (PRC).
Today, after nearly two decades of bilateral human rights dialogue, it is an open secret that this approach has failed to produce any tangible progress. This is admitted even by diplomats conducting the dialogue in private discussions and by a number of authoritative studies. By Kelsang Gyaltsen
:: Within Our Reach: Joy
I salute you. I am your friend, and my love for you goes deep. There is nothing I can give you which you have not. But there is much, very much, that, while I cannot give it, you can take. No heaven can come to us unless our hearts find rest in it today. Take heaven! No peace lies in the future which is not hidden in this present little instant.

My new Ikea planter/stand was looking poorly all summer, as the nasturtiums I tried out really didn't do so well. (and the aphids they get were a bit much too) So, just for the delight of the trirck-or-treaters I thought I'd spruce things up near the door for the volume of people we'll get. We always get 80+ around here. It's a bit lanky as I just watered it down, but I'm feeling quite accomplished, especially since I was out there doing it in the dark! The carport lighting helped a bit, but not much as the best of it is motion-sensor and I had to keep walking out to it to get it on each time it timed out. :laugh:

A Golden Touch. They do window cleaning, gutter cleaning, Christmas lighting and exterior painting. I can't wait for my roses this year!

What order have you seasoned mommies fed the baby food in?
Not a mommy, but we started w rice cereals, then went to veggies first, then fruit and meats... not sure it matters what you have first, fruit or veggie...
We did: rice cereal, then other baby cereals, then orange/yellow veges and fruits (but not citrus), then other fruits/veges, then meats.
i have a 6 month old son and we also did rice cereal, then other cereals, orange and yellow veggies then green veggies, then fruits..we didnt get to the other mixed fruits or meat yet..it seems that alot of pediatricians like to follow this guideline..
We do rice, then the other cereals one every few days, then fruits and veggies. It really isn't a big deal what order those come in as long as each has several days alone before moving to the next. This helps detect food allergies.
Great point by BabyNurse3... isolating foods served to your baby for the first time is crucial in accurately determining food allergies.
To be honest I only used Baby rice with my first child and now being on my forth I have gone straight to Fruit and Veggies with the other two and will do the some with my latest when she is due for weaning. I only used two main Veggies Sweet Potato and Squash to start with and also just Apple sauce and Bananas and than on a weekly basis after a few weeks started introducing other Friuts and Veggies and then meats. I don't know if it truly makes any difference , but my first is my most fussiest eater and the other will eat most things.
