Enjoyed for years | (Posted on 2/17/14)
Review by WB
Ever since my wife found these over four years ago, I used to help maintain my weight and carb cravings. I looked for anything equivalent but either many bars have mostly protein or mostly fiber with too much sugar or worse, alcohol sugars, I have not found a brand with something equivalent with very basic natural ingredients. I am very, very sad these are out of stock. I would purchase year's supply if available.
Very sad indeed! -
Fiber Fit Bars Chocolate Chunk | (Posted on 1/31/14)
Review by lee
I have loved eating this great snack for over 3 yrs or more now and I am so sad they are not being made - I have had reflux and they so stuck by me in times when I could not eat allot I am so hoping you bring them back - they are so good tasting and good for you. Thank you
I am ordering my second box of lemon poppy | (Posted on 11/27/12)
Review by Renee
Great for a snack between meals while at work.
JUST AWFUL! | (Posted on 3/17/12)
Review by Irene
I've tried Cranberry Apple. They taste just awful. Hard and sticky. First I even could not help thinking that maybe they were past their expiration date but no: they are still supposed to be fresh. I wanted to use them outdoors but it will be impossible since you need immediately brush your teeth after eating them.
Filling bars | (Posted on 1/31/12)
Review by SJ
I like the lemon poppy bars. They really fill you up. When you look at the ingredients on the back of the label, it is all natural. You can actually pronounce what you are eating. I think they taste good but they are not going to taste like a fun snacky treat. They taste wholesome and real. Don't expect a dessert taste.
my husband, and love them | (Posted on 10/27/11)
Review by Granny
My husband, and I love them. We are going to order more. It really did cut our appetite.
chocolaty | (Posted on 9/6/11)
Review by healthy nut
The chocolate chunk is terrible if you really want chocolate. If it was named raisin, dates, or anything of that type, it would be right on target because it has no chocolate flavor at all. I spit every bite out too. If i'd known it was raisin flavored, I wouldn't have got it. I only got it because I thought it was supposed to be chocolate. YUK
To Each His Own I Guess | (Posted on 7/15/11)
Review by Alex
I think the chocolate is the best flavor, highly recommend it! It's like a chocolate walnut brownie. You can really taste the walnuts in all of these.
Chocolate flavor is horrible!!! | (Posted on 2/20/11)
Review by kris10k4
Awful consistency and flavor. I was given one for free and I Still had to spit out my very first bite, and throw it away! An audible "BLEH! Disgusting!" was heard by coworkers, but it couldn't be helped lol
EXCELLENT | (Posted on 1/29/11)
Review by Dorie
Wow I just tried the Lemon bars. I am very impressed with the flavor and moistness. I will definitely be purchasing these again.

fiber bars | (Posted on 3/19/10)
Review by silver
i always have one in my car for those times when i need a pick me up.
they are filling and taste good to - i love the nutty flavor in the cranberry apple. 1/4 is enough to satisfy me and i try to stop at that so they last longer. -
Can't Get Enough | (Posted on 3/18/10)
Review by BDiddy
I'm a fan of all the ReNew Life organic fiber bars, which are the best on the market, but these bars have the protein I need. I go through boxes of these bars, seriously - they help balance my hunger cravings in the morning and afternoon. At supper, I'm good with a reasonable dinner. Perfect product (although, I'd recommend you stick with the Apple or Lemon - the Chocolate flavored bars are not my cup of tea).

Keratosis pilaris occurs most commonly during childhood and produces small, rough spots (papules) that are typically skin-colored. They usually appear over the outer surface of the upper arms and thighs, but may also occur elsewhere on the body. Dry skin (especially during winter months) makes the condition worse. Keratosis pilaris tends to be inherited and may be associated with atopic dermatitis.

The Business Insider website, of all places, and by that I mean not Bicycling magazine or the Sierra Club, ran a good piece Wednesday with 13 solid reasons to bike to work. Reasons include lower health care costs and greater productivity, but some are more surprising.
You can find the entire piece here. Below are the highlights. Also noted: Since 2000, bicycle commuting has risen 40 percent in the U.S.
No. 1: Way cheaper than driving. According to a recent study by AAA, the annual cost of owning and operating a car bumped two percent last year to $8,946. Average cost of operating a bicycle: $308.
No. 2: Free gym on wheels. The average bicycle commuter loses 13 pounds their first year biking to work.
No. 3: Skip morning traffic and parking woes. Rush hour commuting can take twice as long in big cities. "Half of the working population in the U.S. commutes five miles or less to work, with bike trips of three to five miles taking less time or the same amount of time as commuting by car," writes Kiplinger editor Amanda Lilly.
No. 5: Healthcare savings. A Journal of Physical Activity and Health study reported that "during the next 30 years, Portland's residents could save as much as $594 million in health care costs because of an investment into biking culture" and "fuel savings of $143 to $218 million."
No. 7: More the merrier: "Unlike cars, the more bicycles on the road, the safer it becomes for cyclists, research shows," according to Business Insider.
No. 8: Sick of — or from — the bus? Not to discourage public transportation, but a British study "found public transit riders are six times more likely to suffer from acute respiratory infections — and occasional riders are most at risk," according to the New York Daily News. Fresh air = good.
No. 9: Tax breaks! Starting this past January, bicycle commuters have been entitled to a $20 per month tax-free reimbursement for bike-related expenses, such as bike repairs and storage expenses, according to the National Center for Transit Research.
No. 11: No. 8: We inhale more harmful exhaust in our car than on a bike. Fuel emissions are bad for any set of lungs, but drivers are actually more susceptible to harmful air than bicyclists, according to a recent Grist post.

Lennox Watchguard Problem
Hello all and thanks for any help you can offer. I have a Lennox furnace that about a week ago started giving me problems. It will fire up fine, but after a few moments shuts off. It will do this several times then stop. It does a alternating slow flash between the two diag lights that indicates watchguard error. I'm at a loss of what to do. I climbed onto my roof today and looked into both of the ventilation pipes and both look clear as could be. The furnace itself seems to be igniting fine, so I don't know what else could really be the problem. My friend who lives 1 block away and has the same furnace started having a problem with his about 2 weeks ago, he paid a couple hundred dollars to a technician to come out and wipe off his sensor and now it works fine. He doesn't know where the sensor is located or what exactly the technician did aside from what he was told (he wasn't there when service was done). He told me that his wasn't even firing up though, and mine is so I don't know if that would even help me... Anyhow any advice would be appreciated... Also I checked what appeared to be the ground wire connecting to the frame and it doesn't look corroded or anything, looks fine.
Thanks, Mike |

Saturday Salon – Man Chest Art, and a New Cover
Dear guests, I bring you now — for the first time anywhere — the cover of How To Be a Proper Lady, coming June 26.
This glorious cover — so completely perfect for Jin and Viola — inspires me today to wax eloquent on The History of Man Chest Art.
Man Chest Art goes back to "the dawn of time." (That quote is from my history class undergraduates, by the way, for which I give them very poor grades.) Take this cave painting discovered in Altamira, Spain, for instance:
Just look at those fantastic four packs! (Back in the Ice Age they didn't have those little plastic six-pack holders, because, well, plastic. Anyway, a man could only reasonably carry two cans of beer in each hand at a time. Thus, four-pack abs instead of six-pack abs.)
[Note: I am a Professional Historian. I know these things.]
Then there were the Greeks, of course (because the Greeks always come into every conversation if you chat for long enough. Go ahead. Try it some time. Start with some really innocuous topic — like breakfast cereal. Mark my words, within an hour someone will mention the Greeks. Or is that Kevin Bacon?) And speaking of meat, the ancient Greeks adored Man Chest Art.
The Greeks made lots and lots and lots of Man Chest Art that the Romans then copied because there was only one thing Romans loved more than Man Chest Art: the Greeks. (See? Back to the Greeks. I told you.)
Actually, I made that up. The Romans were insanely jealous of the Greeks so they conquered them then copied all their best art and pantheon and empire and Other Important Things Like That.
(Incidentally, like the Greeks, the Romans also liked heaving bosom art. But really incidentally, because this post isn't about heaving bosoms [which is why this bit is in parentheses, obviously]. So refocus, kay? Here's some inspiration to help with that.)
More recently (roughly five hundred years ago, so not exactly recent, though in geological terms it was just this morning), Michelangelo Buonarroti simply adored creating Man Chest Art.
Here's another Michelangelo, this one from 1505, shifting us from stone to a softer medium, though I will venture to note the obvious: THERE IS NOTHING SOFT ABOUT THIS MAN.
Finally, just a bit later (the aforementioned five hundred years-or-so-ish), romance novel publishers started producing Man Chest Art with vim and vigor. And what vim! What vigor! A few cases in point, beginning with our lovely Sarah's St. John.
And since men with ink are my secret weakness (though I suppose it's not so secret anymore… now… er…), I bring you Maya Rodale's Sebastian, the Duke of Wycliff.
Lest we ignore the flip side — literally — I invite you to feast your eyes on my favorite Man Back cover of all time, featuring Miranda's delectable Cain.
So there you have it. Man Chests are an old and venerable artistic tradition. I hope your Saturday is now as inspired as mine.
And speaking of man chests, the first chapters of How To Be a Proper Lady are now posted on my website. There's nothing like a gorgeously ripped sailor… in the rain… tied up… to inspire a lady to undress him. Enjoy!
What is your favorite example of Man Chest Art — from any century?

The provision would permanently exempt companies with market capitalizations of $75 million or less from Section 404(b) of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (SOX). BIO has advocated strongly on behalf of this provision, which would become law if the current compromise passes both chambers of Congress. The House passed the financial regulatory reform compromise on June 30 by a vote of 237-192 and the Senate is expected to vote on the measure after the July 4th recess.

Featuring a scratch- and rust-resistant powder-coated aluminum post and base, this bistro table offers a choice of natural teak, natural- or vintage-finish Teak Wood, or Alstone Graphite table tops. While teak is the classic option known for its strength, durability, and beauty, Teak Wood is a wood alternative material developed from polystyrene, boasting the look of teak without the maintenance, and Alstone features an aluminum core with a granite polymer finish, combining the look of granite with the lightweight nature of aluminum.

Aluminum requires little maintenance. However, a regular cleaning is recommended to keep furniture looking new. Wash gently with a mild cleanser, rinse well, and let dry.
Teak weathers well. However, we recommend a routine application of teak oil in extremely dry climates. A routine oiling is also recommended for furniture to be used for dining purposes to discourage staining from food and drink spills. For seasonal cleaning, rinse the teak well and then scrub (using a sponge or soft bristle brush) with a mild solution of water, laundry detergent, and a little bleach. Rinse with fresh water.
Tekwood requires little maintenance and will withstand the elements as a durable, weather-resistant material. Wash gently with a mild cleanser, rinse well, and let dry.
Alstone requires little maintenance and will withstand the elements as a durable, weather-resistant material. Wash gently with a mild cleanser, rinse well, and let dry.
Painting or using any product with polyurethane is NOT recommended as application of these products will void warranty.

Beginning with version 3.7.7, the SQLite database file argument to the sqlite3_open(), sqlite3_open16(), and sqlite3_open_v2() interfaces and to the ATTACH command can be specified either as an ordinary filename or as a Uniform Resource Identifier or URI. The advantage of using a URI filename is that query parameters on the URI can be used to control details of the newly created database connection. For example, an alternative VFS can be specified using a "vfs=" query parameter. Or the database can be opened read-only by using "mode=ro" as a query parameter.
In order to maintain full backwards compatibility for legacy applications, the URI filename capability is disabled by default. In order for URI filenames to work, one or more of the following must be true:
The SQLite library is compiled with the SQLITE_USE_URI compile-time option.
The sqlite3_config(SQLITE_CONFIG_URI, 1); configuration option is set at application start-time.
The SQLITE_OPEN_URI bit is OR-ed in with the set bits passed in as the 3rd parameter to the sqlite3_open_v2() interface.
If URI filenames are recognized when the database connection is originally opened, then URI filenames will also be recognized on ATTACH statements. Similarly, if URI filenames are not recognized when the database connection is first opened, they will not be recognized by ATTACH.
Since SQLite always interprets any filename that does not begins with "file:" as an ordinary filename regardless of the URI setting, and because it is very unusual to have an actual file begin with "file:", it is safe for most applications to enable URI processing even if URI filenames are not currently being used.
According to RFC 3986, a URI consists of a scheme, an authority, a path, a query string, and a fragment. The scheme is always required. One of either the authority or the path is also always required. The query string and fragment are optional.
SQLite uses the "file:" URI syntax to identify database files. SQLite strives to interpret file: URIs in exactly the same way as popular web-browsers such as Firefox, Chrome, Safari, Internet Explorer, and Opera, and command-line programs such as Windows "start" and the Mac OS-X "open" command. A succinct summary of the URI parsing rules follows:
Zero or more escape sequences of the form "%HH" (where H represents any hexadecimal digit) can occur in the path, query string, or fragment.
A filename that is not a well-formed URI is interpreted as an ordinary filename.
URIs are processed as UTF8 text. The filename argument sqlite3_open16() is converted from UTF16 native byte order into UTF8 prior to processing.
The path component of the URI specifies the disk file that is the SQLite database to be opened. If the path component is omitted, then the database is stored in a temporary file that will be automatically deleted when the database connection closes. If the authority section is present, then the path is always an absolute pathname. If the authority section is omitted, then the path is an absolute pathname if it begins with the "/" character (ASCII code 0x2f) and is a relative pathname otherwise. On windows, if the absolute path begins with "/X:/" where X is any single ASCII alphabetic character ("a" through "z" or "A" through "Z") then the "X:" is understood to be the drive letter of the volume containing the file, not the toplevel directory.
An ordinary filename can usually be converted into an equivalent URI by the steps shown below. The one exception is that a relative windows pathname with a drive letter cannot be converted directly into a URI; it must be changed into an absolute pathname first.
A URI filename can optionally be followed by a query string. The query string consists of text following the first "?" character but excluding the optional fragment that begins with with "#". The query string is divided into key/value pairs. We usually refer to these key/value pairs as "query parameters". Key/value pairs are separated by a single "&" character. The key comes first and is separated from the value by a single "=" character. Both key and value may contain %HH escape sequences.
The text of query parameters is appended to the filename argument of the xOpen method of the VFS. Any %HH escape sequences in the query parameters are resolved prior to being appended to the xOpen filename. A single zero-byte separates the xOpen filename argument from the key of the first query parameters, each key and value, and each subsequent key from the prior value. The list of query parameters parameters appended to the xOpen filename is terminated by a single zero-length key. Note that the value of a query parameter can be an empty string.
Some query parameters are interpreted by the SQLite core and used to modify the characteristics of the new connection. All query parameters are always passed through into the xOpen method of the VFS even if they are previously read and interpreted by the SQLite core.
The following query parameters are recognized by SQLite as of version 3.7.10. Other query parameters might be added to this set in future releases.
The vfs query parameter causes the database connection to be opened using the VFS called NAME. The open attempt fails if NAME is not the name of a VFS that is built into SQLite or that has been previously registered using sqlite3_vfs_register().
The mode query parameter determines if the new database is opened read-only, read-write, read-write and created if it does not exist, or that the database is a pure in-memory database that never interacts with disk, respectively. The mode=memory option was added in version 3.7.13.
The cache query parameter determines if the new database is opened using shared cache mode or with a private cache.
The psow query parameter overrides the powersafe overwrite property of the database file being opened. The psow query parameter works with the default windows and unix VFSes but might be a no-op for other proprietary or non-standard VFSes.

Honouring Women - International Women's Day 2014Happy International Women's Day Saturday, March 8th, 2014 To show honour, respect and appreciation of all women in our society and for all the women who came before, Earth's General Store is providing one Free Organic Fair Trade Chocolate Bar to each wonderful woman for all of Saturday (or until quantities are depleted*). Respect, peace, justice and the end of all violence would be great gift to give to women and the world but Earth's General Store cannot deliver on all these but we work to bring these aspects of a healthy society into being. What we can offer right here and now is a small gift of appreciation to these people in our society that provide us with so much is a chocolate bar. This is no ordinary chocolate bar – it is mad by a cooperative organisation out of Ottawa (Cocoa Camino), is certified organic and is Fair Trade Certified – showing respect for the organisation, the planet, the workers… and in turn the recipients. Latest Green Acts Rewards Recipients from Earth's General Store CustomersAs most of you know we have operated a Green Acts Reward program at the store for many years. This is where customers get rewarded (besides the 5 cents for when you/they bring in their shopping bag or container to refill) with tokens of value and they then donate their reward to organisations. For more information about this program please visit my earlier blog. Green Acts Reward recipients for the last period.
To date Earth's General Store has, through this program and the green actions of our customers, donated over $3,000 to many organizations in Edmonton, in Canada and around the world. Thank you to help spread the knowledge, the funds and for taking green actions! ETC Group New Products at Earth's General Store - February 2014Last week I went out and bought a new cooler so that we can reduce the crowding of our products. That being said it also gave me the opportunity to bring in a few products that I hadn't before due to the limited space. There will be more new beverages, more kombucha and even some bottle kefir by the end of the week. Tasty! Some of the new items that we have recently brought in are: Charities in Canada - Watch out if You Question the GovernmentToday, Finance Minister Jim Flaherty will be bringing in a budget and he may be introducing further rules and restrictions of groups that can get and use charitable status. This is fine as long as it is not punitive, restricts societal dialogue, restricts criticism, and is not all about quitting dissenting voices. There are quite a few groups that have charitable status, I just did a quick search and found out that there are 86,738 on the Canada Revenue Agency's website list. This was quite a few more than I would have guessed. Many of these are religious organisations. One of my understanding of being granted charitable status is that less than 10% of your budget and activities can come from charitable sources and used on advocacy. This has stopped one of the groups I have been involved in for over 30 years from applying for charitable status. What happens when the very nature of the work you do could be seen as advocacy. I am speaking specifically about a bicycle organisation that represents the cycling community at city hall and asking for better and safer bicycle infrastructure. Seed Time is Coming UpGardens take a bit of planning – specially if you want to start you transplant seedlings that you grow yourself. We get certified organic seeds from a variety of seed houses: Harmonic Seeds (Barrhead, AB) Stellar Seeds Kaslo, BC), Urban Harvest (Toronto, ON), and West Coast Seeds (Lower Mainland, BC). We offer certified organic seeds, open pollinated, some hybrids (when open pollinated is not available for a variety), heirlooms varieties, and local seeds. Starting next week seeds should start to arrive. West Coast Seeds has already arrived but won't be put out for display until sometime next week. One of our main seed suppliers, West Coast Seeds, has produced a very handy guide for prairie growers and for our zone. Check it out below. Oh – and yes we have LOTS of Kale seeds coming in. - Posted February 6th, 2014 Earth's General Store Looking for a Produce Staff PersonBe Part of Something Good, Work at Earth's General Store We are an independent and locally owned community grocery store with a wide selection of Fair Trade Certified and Certified Organic choices. We offer the community information and products that support good health and reduce our individual and collective ecological impact on the planet. We are currently looking for a Full-Time Produce Team Member While previous produce experience is an asset, those willing to learn are also encouraged to apply. Responsibilities
Required Competencies Travel Blog from my Trip to Guatemala and MexicoI have now returned to Edmonton sans bicycle (I will get to that story shortly) from my journey to Guatemala and Mexico. My trip was enjoyable and somewhat relaxing. There were some unusual connections made - Running into Kevin Schmidt in Valladolid (who then had his iPhone stolen), running into friends of Tad Hargreaves at the Mayan ruins of Cobá , running into people at a hotel that were also there last March, finding a iPhone on the side of the road and starting the process of getting it returned to the owners, having coffee in a coffee shop in San Cristobal de las Casas and starting a conversation with the woman on the next table and she being the only person in the city that could tell me the person that I was intending to meet up was not in Palenque but in San Cristobal de las Casas – thank you Universe. I saw some wonderful scenes, met some beautiful people, did some good exercise and felt sadness, joy, energy, love, depression and frustration. Chlorella Powder in BULK -Canada's LOWEST PriceThe regular price for our normal chlorella was about $150/kg. It was certified organic. Recently I received a shipment of Certified Organic Chlorella and I have been able to lower the selling price to $98.00/kg. This is a very good price and I believe the lowest price for bulk (loose) chlorella in Canada. I like chlorella and spirulina because they are such a great clean source of protein. When people ask me about them I say they add a sparkle. I did not realize this was the nice shot of protein they provided to my diet. Butler Soy Curls (TM) now at Earths General StoreSeveral years ago someone asked me about this product and I have keep my eyes open for them ever since. One of our supplier started to bring these items in very recently and I am pleased to say – as of today Earth's General Store is now stocking Butler's Soy Curls This item is vegan, made with non-GMO soy, and grown without chemical pesticides (pity they just didn't go with Certified Organic and therefore they could dispense with having to list the things they don't have in them). Check out their website for wonderful ways to make the into a tasty recipe. I understand that businesses in Seattle and Portland use this product in some great street food and vegan cafe food. Enjoy. - Posted December 22nd, 2013 List of Permaculture Books at Earth's General StoreSomeone asked me to provide her a list of the permaculture books that we carry. When I wrote the list I did not realize we had so many. I thought I would share it with everyone else. This list does not include our books on Organic Gardening, beekeeping, chicken coops, house building and such. AND definitely not including our listing of Vegan, Vegetarian, Plant Based and Raw recipe books which would be about 10 times longer :). |

Mayor Michael Bloomberg's gun control group rolls out a new ad Monday that targets U.S. senators who could help enact comprehensive background checks.
Mayors Against Illegal Guns will be airing these ads in 13 states during the upcoming congressional recess.
The $12 million campaign features a gun owner saying closing loopholes will stop criminals and mentally ill people from owning guns.
Advocates had been calling for lawmakers to close the so-called gun show loophole in the wake of several mass shootings.
The ad's debut comes ahead of Thursday's planned National Day To Demand Action, when the mayor's coalition plans more than 100 events across the country.
The Senate is scheduled to take up gun control legislation next month.

Democrats smell blood in the water with this story, and this move by Suder will do nothing to calm them. My initial take on this grant was that it was another instance of poor vetting by the Walker administration. It's difficult not to see this as perhaps something much more politically damaging. For now, Suder's resignation is only going to serve to raise more questions about this episode.

Karman, a Yemeni journalist and activist, won her Nobel Peace Prize [JURIST report] for aiding the protest movement in Yemen that forced Saleh from the presidency. While Karman will have to wait for further action by the UN, the Security Council in September called on Yemen to comply with international law [JURIST report] and end ongoing violence against protesters that resulted in the deaths of at least 49 people [Al Jazeera report] shortly following Saleh's return as president after a three-month absence. Also in September, the UN Office of the High Commissioner for Human Rights [official website] urged an intervention [JURIST report] in Yemen after verifying that the Yemeni government was indeed firing on peaceful protesters. Saleh clung to the presidency throughout nearly 10 months of protests and violence despite agreeing to step down [JURIST report] in April, shortly following his attempt to remove presidential term limits and expand his political authority.
Most African nations, excluding South Africa, have criminalized same-sex marriage [JURIST news archive], and Nigeria in particular has long discriminated against gays and lesbians. Earlier this month, Australian Prime Minister Julia Gillard [official website] proposed a vote on same-sex marriage, and Brazil granted its first citizenship based on same-sex marriage [JURIST reports]. In August, Chilean President Sebastian Pinera [official profile, in Spanish] proposed legislation that would legalize same-sex civil unions [JURIST report]. In June, the UN Human Rights Council (UNHRC) [official website] passed its first gay rights resolution [JURIST report]. Despite these advances, other countries have stood strongly against same-sex marriage. In April, Hungary added a prohibition against gay marriage [JURIST report] to its constitution, and in January, France upheld a same-sex marriage ban [JURIST report]. As of a 2011 International Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Trans and Intersex Association (ILGA) [advocacy website] State-Sponsored Homophobia report [text, PDF], 76 countries still criminalize same-sex relationships, and five enforce the death penalty against homosexuals.
This case is ultimately about free speech and equal treatment for all North Carolinians, regardless of their point of view on abortion. The state should not be allowed to use its authority to promote one side of a debate while denying the same opportunity to the other side. We look forward to continuing our arguments in this case, and hope the court agrees that the First Amendment prohibits the blatant type of viewpoint discrimination the state has proposed through this one-sided license plate scheme.
Abortion continues to be an extremely controversial issue in North Carolina. In October, a federal district court judge blocked [JURIST report] a provision of a state abortion law [HB 854 materials] that required a physician to perform an ultrasound and describe the images to the patient. This law, known as the "Woman's Right to Know Act" also requires a 24-hour waiting period for women seeking an abortion. In June, North Carolina Governor Beverly Perdue [official website] vetoed the bill [JURIST report], calling it "a dangerous intrusion into the confidential relationship that exists between women and their doctors." In July, however, both the House and Senate [JURIST reports] voted to override the veto, allowing the legislation to become North Carolina law. Opponents of the law have called it "draconian" and have stated that women seeking abortions will face dramatic changes once the law takes effect, while supporters contend that the new law will give women the opportunity to "know all the facts" about abortion.
It is not fair, because, despite Citigroup's nominal consent, the potential for abuse in imposing penalties on the basis of facts that are neither proven nor acknowledged patent. It is not adequate, because, in the absence of any facts, the Court lacks a framework for determining adequacy. And, most obviously, the proposed Consent Judgment does not serve the public interest, because it asks the Court to employ its power and assert its authority when it does not know the facts. An application of judicial power that does not rest on facts is worse than mindless, it is inherently dangerous. The injunctive power of the judiciary is not a free roving remedy to be invoked at the whim of a regulatory agency, even with the consent of the regulated. If its deployment does not rest on factscold, hard, solid facts, established either by admissions or by trialsit serves no lawful or moral purpose and is simply an engine of opposition.
In October, the judge ordered [text, PDF] the SEC and Citigroup to defend their recent settlement agreement [JURIST report]. The agreement concluded the dispute that charged Citigroup with having misled its investors about a $1 billion loan that defaulted. The result left investors to bear the burden while Citigroup reaped $160 million in profits from trading and fees. Rakoff directed both parties to answer nine questions pertaining to the $285 million settlement. One of Rakoff's principal issues is why the SEC imposed a $95 million penalty on Citigroup but imposed a $535 million penalty [settlement agreement, PDF] on Goldman Sachs in a July 2010 suit.
I was particularly heartened by the determination of the representatives of the Lebanese people to work for the rule of law and long-term stability. ... I am convinced that the strength of the legal and academic communities of Lebanon will allow the administration of justice in the country to attain new heights. The support we are receiving will allow the STL to contribute to securing the stability that everybody, the killers aside, so earnestly desires, which will open new opportunities for Lebanon.
The STL has faced great difficulty [JURIST report] trying to arrest the members of Hezbollah in Lebanon where the Shiite militia Hezbollah, backed by Iran, is the country's most powerful political force. Hezbollah has denied involvement in the suicide bombing on February 14, 2005, which killed former Lebanese prime minister Rafik Hariri [BBC profile; JURIST news archive] in addition to 22 other people. If the trial commences, this would be the first trial in absentia at an international court since the prosecution of Nazis during the Nuremberg trials. In 2007, the UN Security Council approved a resolution to establish an ad hoc international tribunal to investigate and try suspects in the assassination of Hariri.
In early August, a Vietnamese appeals court upheld the seven-year sentence of prominent rights lawyer and dissident Cu Huy Ha Vu, convicted in April [JURIST report] of carrying out anti-state propaganda. The court dismissed the appeal [AP report] despite Vu's arguments that his advocating for a multi-party system did not mean he was against the Communist party. In January 2010, a Vietnamese court sentenced [JURIST report] writer and democracy activist Pham Thanh Nghien to four years in prison on charges of spreading anti-state propaganda. That same month, a Vietnamese court convicted four democracy activists [JURIST report] of subversion. Following the one-day trial, human rights lawyer Le Cong Dinh [JURIST news archive] was sentenced to five years in prison. The four defendants were accused of activities aimed at ending communist rule in Vietnam. Dinh admitted to advocating multi-party democracy in Vietnam and joining the banned Democracy Party. Prior to Dinh's conviction, a Vietnamese court sentenced [JURIST report] pro-democracy dissident Tran Anh Kim in December 2009 to five-and-a-half years in prison for subversion.
While the National Transitional Council has taken some steps towards transferring responsibility for detainees from brigades to proper State authorities, much remains to be done to regularize detention, prevent abuse, bring about the release of persons whose detention should not be prolonged and ensure that future arrests are carried out only within the law. ... I believe that the leaders of the new Libya are truly committed to building a society based on respect for human rights. However difficult the circumstances, it is essential to take the earliest possible action to end arbitrary detention and prevent abuses and discrimination against third country nationals and against any group of Libya's own citizens.
Last week, International Criminal Court (ICC) [official website] Chief Prosecutor Luis Moreno-Ocampo [official profile] said the ICC would allow Libya to conduct the trial of Saif al-Islam Gaddafi [JURIST report], son of Muammar Gaddafi. Ocampo said he trusts the new Libyan government will be able to try him fairly [AP report] despite concern expressed by human rights groups. Ocampo had traveled to Libya [JURIST report] to discuss the details of the Saif al-Islam trial with Libyan officials. Earlier this month, Saif al-Islam was captured in southern Libya, and Libyan Prime Minister Abdurrahim al-Keib subsequently pledged that he would receive a fair trial [JURIST reports]. Also this month, Ottilia Maunganidze [profile], a researcher at the Institute for Security Studies [website], wrote that the NTC must meet its international obligations [JURIST op-ed] and ensure justice for human rights violations by surrendering Saif al-Islam to the ICC. Edsel Tupaz of Tupaz & Associates and Daniel Wagner [profiles] of Country Risk Solutions wrote this month that while Libya needs a "strategically targeted court system" with a specialized war crimes court [JURIST op-ed] at its core, currently there is no avoiding "the fact that there are no domestic judicial mechanisms [in Libya] ... to enforce the voice of the ICC."
Several other laws have been challenged recently in Malaysian courts. Late last month, the Malaysian Court of Appeal [official website] ruled that a law prohibiting college students from taking part in political activities is unconstitutional [JURIST report]. The suit, filed by four International Islamic University of Malaysia [official website] students in 2010, challenged the constitutionality of the 1971 Universities and University Colleges Act (UUCA) [text, PDF] prohibiting students from political participation. Also last month, Malaysia's government released 125 prisoners [JURIST report] who were being held under a decades-old security law that has been widely criticized by human rights and opposition groups. In September, Razak announced that the government would repeal two strict security laws [JURIST report] that had allowed extended detention of suspects without trial. The government also said that it will review other laws dealing with freedom of the press.
Shortly after the convictions were handed down, the medics urged the UN to investigate claims of abuse [JURIST report] and due process violations. Earlier this week, Bahraini King Hamad bin Isa Al Khalifa [official profile] ordered a special commission [JURIST report] to look into recommendations made following an independent investigation into the alleged crackdown on pro-democracy protesters in the country. The announcement follows a report [JURIST report] released last week by the Bahrain Independent Commission of Inquiry (BICI) [official website] that Bahrain authorities used excessive force and tortured detainees involved in the pro-democracy demonstrations earlier this year.
Al-Bashir remains an extremely controversial figure in international politics for his actions during the Darfur conflict. The ICC requested last month that the Republic of Malawi explain [JURIST report] why that country's authorities failed to arrest al-Bashir during his widely reported visit there for a trade summit. Amnesty International (AI) [advocacy website], in a press release on the day of al-Bashir's visit, urged Malawi to arrest the Sudanese president [JURIST report] and surrender him to the ICC for prosecution. In June, AI urged Malaysia to withdraw an invitation for al-Bashir to participate in an event there and to arrest him if he travels to the country [JURIST report]. Also in June, ICC Chief Prosecutor Luis Moreno Ocampo issued a statement claiming that al-Bashir has continued to commit crimes against humanity [JURIST report] in Darfur. In May, the ICC urged Djibouti to arrest al-Bashir [JURIST report].

Google sued by Boston Legal. Is this the beginning of a new series?
One of the least discussed topics in the world, or at least the world of online advertising, concerns where ads really run.
The case being brought against Google by Boston lawyer Hal K. Levitte, might expose far more than Google's alleged involvement in ads that the wrong people see, or, perhaps, that no one sees at all.
Mr. Levitte, depressingly, looks nothing like Boston Legal's William Shatner.
However, he makes the kind of arguments that Shatner's character, Denny Crane, has long foisted upon unsuspecting bit part actors on the show.
Mr. Levitte seems rather upset that he … Read more

Through a nationwide survey, NFCA will gain more insight to gluten-free life on college campuses to help make the transition easier for students.
The National Foundation for Celiac Awareness (NFCA) is on a mission to help gluten-free college students get the food and support they need to thrive on campus. While the organization already offers resources for students embarking on their collegiate journey, NFCA is actively working to expand the materials currently offered. Along with Easy Eats magazine, NFCA is conducting a short survey of students living with celiac disease and other gluten-related disorders on college campuses to better address students' most pressing concerns.
Take the Gluten-Free in College Survey.
A recent settlement agreement between Lesley University in Massachusetts and the US Department of Justice placed celiac disease and special dietary needs on center stage, increasing awareness among universities of the importance of making these accommodations. NFCA is already working to train campus dining halls in safe gluten-free cooking through its program GREAT Schools, Colleges and Camps. Now, the results from the survey will help NFCA further stress the medical necessity of safe and diverse gluten-free food options in dining halls. The survey will also lend insight to the social challenges often experienced by gluten-free students on campus, allowing NFCA to offer more tips and resources to students for rising above these challenges.
Gluten-free undergraduate and graduate students can access the survey online here. NFCA encourages students to share this survey with fellow students living gluten-free on college campuses across the US.

On Thursday, Toyota announced a partnership with Tesla motors. Toyota will be investing US $50 million into Tesla, as well as providing engineering and production systems for the development of electric vehicles.The announcement sends a strong signal that the global automaker has a vested, long-term commitment to driving the industry.
Good leaders take the time to reflect on their mistakes and respond with a strategy that not only protects their position, but also carves out new spaces. If anything, Toyota's slow public response to addressing highly visible product flaws has served as a catalyst to take real, demonstrative action. With this agreement, both companies win. Tesla gets the necessary capital, structure and visibility while Toyota has an opportunity to inject a fresh jolt of entrepreneurial spirit. For Toyota, in particular, this arrangement should have a continued calming effect with its most vocal critics even if some may see this as a quick fix to a lagging public relations problem.
And yet, the partnership is not without its own set of challenges—the first being cultural. Toyota operates with a geographically dispersed, top-down, command and control culture while the Silicon-Valley based, Tesla, has a more flexible, innovative approach. Both companies will need to find middle ground to make the alliance work. Additionally, the category shift is still in its early stages. Every major carmaker is focused on coming up with a cleaner technology solution and many are even beginning to bring their early ideas to market. The stakes are high and Toyota will need to work hard to differentiate its brand.What is important to remember here is Toyota's track record. The brand has held up to intense media and government scrutiny, and as its success with the Prius attests, when Toyota is focused on something, it has a history of making it work. The Toyota brand and its products may be slightly tarnished, but if the organization executes this correctly, Toyota will have effectively turned a negative into a positive—and that is what leaders and strong global brands do.
