Dynamic Regulation Design Without Payments: Timing is Everything
AbstractWe consider a two period model of optimal regulation of a firm subject to marginal compliance cost shocks. The regulator faces an asymmetric information problem: the firm knows current compliance costs, but the regulator does not. Both the regulator and the firm are uncertain about future costs. In our basic framework, the regulator may not offer payments to the firm; we show that the regulator can vary the strength of regulation over time to induce the firm to reveal its costs and increase welfare. In the optimal mechanism, the regulator offers stronger (weaker) regulation in the first period and weaker (stronger) regulation in the second period if the firm reports low (high) compliance costs in the first period. Low cost firms expect compliance costs to rise in the future, and thus prefer weaker regulation in the second period. High cost firms expect costs to fall in the future and thus prefer regulation which becomes more strict over time. Thus the regulator offers the low (high) cost firms slightly weaker (stronger) regulation in the second period in exchange for much stronger (weaker) regulation in the first period. We refer to our dynamic mechanism as "timing" the regulation. If the regulator can make payments, then the optimal mechanism to some degree times the regulation as long as a positive cost of funds exists. If the cost of funds is high enough, then under the optimal mechanism the regulator will not use payments and only use our timing mechanism

Could he be any more attractive? I think a lot of lives would be saved if Tom Hardy stopped walking around soaking wet in a rain-drenched black suit, like some kind of übergqmofo.
On a side note, Legend looks like it's going to be major.

How long did it take to grow that out?
Five months. And I've already trimmed it a lot, because people are saying it's grizzly.
Which people?
Oh, I'm a terrible reader of the Internet and stuff like that.
And you read what people say about you?
Yeah, 'cause in my head, I'm still not famous. It's like, "Hey, I'm on this site!" Or [to my fiancée], "Look at what we were wearing last night! And everyone says you look great." And then someone will say, "Tom Hardy is a cunt because … " What? WHAT?
And then do you reply anonymously?
Yes, sometimes! Wouldn't you? Sometimes no one's defending my corner! And then what you find — I've done it before — is that it's a forest fire that you can't put out. It's like [when commenters say], "Is he gay? Isn't he gay?" Does it matter? Does it actually? (x)

Purim is Coming & We're Here to Help
At last, the wackiest, craziest Jewish holiday of the year has arrived! Purim begins tomorrow night at sundown and goes until sundown on Sunday night, which means 24 hours of costumes, hamantaschen, noisemakers and more.
But Purim ain't all cookies and costumes–it's about beauty pageants, drinking, and evil plots, too! Refresh yourself on the Purim story, and then if you need some last minute ideas to make this year's Purim extra fun, we've got you covered. Read the rest of this entry →

The Illinois Prisoner Review Board voted unanimously Thursday to keep Joey Didier's killer behind bars.
Robert Lower went before the board for the 19th time Thursday seeking parole. However, he received no votes in his favor. Lower has been in prison for 38 years and has never received a single vote in favor of parole.
Lower was convicted of the 1975 murder of 15-year-old Joey Didier. Didier was abducted from his paper route by Lower, who then molested and hanged the teen.
Lower was sentenced to 100 to 150 years in prison. He will come up for parole again in 2019.

Three Accused of Enslaving Acrobats
Posted Jul 5, 2007 10:49 AM CDT
By Debra Cassens Weiss
Three men have been arrested on charges they enslaved more than 20 members of a Chinese acrobatic team that performed around the country.
Police said the accused men confiscated the acrobats' passports and visas, and paid and fed them little, Associated Press reports.
A court-appointed attorney for one of the men said team members were here on a cultural program to learn about America.

USELESS CUSTOMER SERVICE don't plan on returning anything!
got a couch from them, changed my mind shortly after. Called to cancel the order and to get a refund. Order was cancelled, but refund took THREE weeks! and I'm still waiting. Between lost receipts, missing personnel, two weeks into the process, after many calls and visits, I finally managed to speak to the manager and he said, 'I just...more
Yes, I know it can be a bit pricey, but I have to admit, I really like habitat. The designs are simple but lovely, the store is huuuge (don't forget the massive section downstairs full of bedding, lamps, kitchen designs and kitchen utensils/accessories...) plus their sales can be fantastic.
My boyfriend and I are not quite rich enough for their furniture (unless it has a decent discount in a...more
Their basement is surprisingly cavernous. Pieces are on the pricier side even for basic lamps and simple decorative pieces, but their designs are for the most part quite clever. One can easily spend an entire hour browsing.
Downside: A sales associate explained to me that customers must take delivery of any pieces found in stock on the day of purchase, and that no later delivery day can be...more
Yesterday I stumbled across a Habitat brochure and today, I felt the urge to stumble into the store itself. It is doubtless that these two events were inevitably linked: after drooling over the lovely pictures in the crafty magazine I felt the need to walk in and drool over the actual furniture. Well done Habitat. Mission accomplished.
Habitat tends to bring me back to a time when I used...more
OK, first, a confession, and one I'm sure is not uncommon. I've never really been able to tell the difference between Habitat and Heals, those two great shining Modernist beacons of British home-ware, whose pieces are blessed with a strange ability to make everyone's living room's look exactly the same.
Well, not exactly the same, but it is my belief that design 'classics' from high street...more

So great that schools like Summit that do so much with so little are getting this kind of attention. These educators and are pioneers and education heroes...a bright spot in the US education landscape.

Nature Wars: The Incredible Story of How Wildlife Comebacks Turned Backyards Into Battlegroundsby Jim Sterba
Synopses & Reviews
Publisher Comments:
This may be hard to believe but it is very likely that more people live in closer proximity to more wild animals, birds and trees in the eastern United States today than anywhere on the planet at any time in history. For nature lovers, this should be wonderful news — unless, perhaps, you are one of more than 4,000 drivers who will hit a deer today, your child's soccer field is carpeted with goose droppings, coyotes are killing your pets, the neighbor's cat has turned your bird feeder into a fast-food outlet, wild turkeys have eaten your newly-planted seed corn, beavers have flooded your driveway, or bears are looting your garbage cans.
For 400 years, explorers, traders, and settlers plundered North American wildlife and forests in an escalating rampage that culminated in the late 19th century's "era of extermination." By 1900, populations of many wild animals and birds had been reduced to isolated remnants or threatened with extinction, and worry mounted that we were running out of trees. Then, in the 20th century, an incredible turnaround took place. Conservationists outlawed commercial hunting, created wildlife sanctuaries, transplanted isolated species to restored habitats and imposed regulations on hunters and trappers. Over decades, they slowly nursed many wild populations back to health.
But after the Second World War something happened that conservationists hadn't foreseen: sprawl. People moved first into suburbs on urban edges, and then kept moving out across a landscape once occupied by family farms. By 2000, a majority of Americans lived in neither cities nor country but in that vast in-between. Much of sprawl has plenty of trees and its human residents offer up more and better amenities than many wild creatures can find in the wild: plenty of food, water, hiding places, and protection from predators with guns. The result is a mix of people and wildlife that should be an animal-lover's dream-come-true but often turns into a sprawl-dweller's nightmare.
Nature Wars offers an eye-opening look at how Americans lost touch with the natural landscape, spending 90 percent of their time indoors where nature arrives via television, films and digital screens in which wild creatures often behave like people or cuddly pets. All the while our well-meaning efforts to protect animals allowed wild populations to burgeon out of control, causing damage costing billions, degrading ecosystems, and touching off disputes that polarized communities, setting neighbor against neighbor. Deeply researched, eloquently written, counterintuitive and often humorous Nature Wars will be the definitive book on how we created this unintended mess.
For four hundred years, explorers, traders, and settlers plundered North American wildlife in an escalating rampage, but in the twentieth century an incredible turnaround took place. Conservationists created wildlife sanctuaries, restored habitats, and imposed regulations on hunters and trappers. Over decades, they nursed many wild populations back to health.
Then, after World War II, something happened that conservationists hadn't foreseen: sprawl. People moved into suburbs, and then kept moving outward. All the while, well-meaning efforts to protect animals allowed wild populations to burgeon out of control, causing damage costing billions, degrading ecosystems, and touching off disputes that polarized communities. The result is a mix of people and wildlife that should be an animal-lover's dream, but often turns into a sprawl-dweller's nightmare.
Deeply researched, eloquently written, and perceptively humorous, Nature Wars expresses the need for organic reconnection with our natural ecosystem by offering a provocative look at how Americans created an inadvertent mess.

Sensory Reality - Peacetime
1. Good and Evil have many shades of grey. Many groups with different ideas and opinions are legitimate.
2. Now is pretty much like other times.
3. The great forces of nature, such as God or human evolution, are not often evoked in our disputes.
4. When the present period is over, things will go on much as they have in the past.
5. There are many problems to be solved and their relative importance varies from day to day. Life is complex.
6. All people act from pretty much the same motives.
7. Problems start on different levels - economic, political, or personal - and must be dealt with on these levels.
8. We are concerned with what causes the problems we are trying to solve.
9. We can talk to those we disagree with.
10. All people are fundamentally the same.
Mythic Reality - Wartime
1. Good and Evil are reduced to Us and Them. There are no innocent bystanders; there are only those for or those against us. Crucial issues are divided into black and white, and opinions about them are either right or wrong.
2. Now is different from all other times. Everything hangs in the balance; whoever wins now wins forever. It is the time of the final battle between good and evil.
3. 'God is on Our Side,' 'History will absolve us,' and other such slogans indicate our belief that great cosmic forces are with us.
4. Everything will be vastly different after the war. Things will be better if we win and terribly worse if we lose. Winning or losing will change the meaning of the past and the shape of the future.
5. There is only one major problem to be solved. All others are secondary. Life has one major focus.
6. They act from a wish for power. We act from self-defence, benevolence, and reasons of common decency and morality.
7. The real problem started with an act of will by the enemy and can only be solved by breaking his will or by making him helpless to act on it.
8. We are not concerned with causes, only with outcomes.
9.Since the enemy is evil, he naturally lies. Communication is not possible. Only force can settle the issue. We tell the truth (news, education). They lie (propaganda).
10. The same actions are 'good' when we do them and 'evil' when the enemy does them. There is doubt that 'we' and 'they' really belong to the same species.

For the past two decades, we've essentially been living with two versions of In Utero. The first was officially released Sept. 21, 1993, though its legend was established several months prior. As the intensely anticipated follow-up to the most transformative rock album of the 1990s, Nirvana's third record was pre-destined to become a battlefield in the heightening clash between indie and corporate culture, as mediated by a band that was philosophically faithful to the former but contractually beholden to the latter.
While Kurt Cobain famously used the liner notes for 1992 rarities compilation Incesticide to call out the jocks, racists, and homophobes in Nirvana's ever-expanding audience, In Utero promised a more aggressively hands-on process of weeding out the mooks, a concerted effort to realign Nirvana with the artists they actually listened to and away from those they were credited with spawning. And where the album's title would reflect Cobain's lyrical yearning for a back-to-the-womb retreat from celebrity scrutiny, it also proved emblematic of the record's messy birth: A by-all-reports harmonious two-week quickie session with recording engineer Steve Albini in a rural Minnesota studio would lead to months of acrimonious exchanges in the press among the band, DGC, and Albini over the purportedly unlistenable nature of the results, requests for cleaner mixes, and cruddy cassette copies leaked to radio that falsely reinforced the label's misgivings. (The second-guessing circumstances were not that dissimilar to those of the preceding Nevermind-- wherein Butch Vig's original recordings were eventually handed over to Andy Wallace for a platinum-plated finish-- only this time, the outcome had the potential to affect Geffen's share price.)
Upon release, In Utero may have debuted at number one, but initially it was something of a pyrrhic victory: Rather than lead a wave of Jesus Lizard-inspired noise bands to the top of the Billboard charts, In Utero would send millions of Nirvana's more casual crossover fans scurrying into the warm embrace of Pearl Jam's record-setting October '93 release Vs., an album that, from a music-biz perspective, was the true blockbuster sequel to Nevermind. In that sense, this first version of In Utero resonates as much today as a symbolic gesture as a collection of 12 unrelentingly visceral rock songs, a how-to manual for any artist at the top of their game-- from Kid A-era Radiohead to Kanye West circa Yeezus-- that would rather use their elevated position to provoke their audience than pander to it.
The second version of In Utero came to be on April 8, 1994, from which point the album would be forever known as the rough draft for rock'n'roll's most famous suicide note. In the wake of Cobain's shotgunned sign-off, it became nigh impossible to hear In Utero in any other context. The infamous album-opening lyric that once dripped with sarcasm-- "Teenage angst has paid off well/ Now I'm bored and old"-- now sounded coldly nihilistic. Where the seismic stomper "Scentless Apprentice" invoked Patrick Süskind's novel Perfume as metaphor for Cobain's festering disgust with the music press and industry, the song's grueling shriek of "get awwwwwaaaayyyy" suddenly seemed to be directed at humanity itself. The "Leonard Cohen after-world" fantasy of "Pennyroyal Tea" turned into wish fulfillment; "All Apologies" ceased to be an innocently plaintive pop song and was instead permanently etched into its writer's epitaph.
But with this two-disc 20th-anniversary reissue, we now have a third version of In Utero, and I'm not just referring to the newly remixed iteration of the album. Taken as a whole, the package-- which also includes a remastered version of the original mix, B-sides, outtakes, a slew of embryonic demos, and a cheeky but affecting liner-note essay by comedian/tourmate Bobcat Goldthwait-- puts lie to the notion that In Utero is the soundtrack to a suicide, commercial or otherwise. In charting the songs' evolution from rough instrumentals to the militaristic blasts of fury heard on the album proper, and through the outré experiments scrapped along the way, we hear a band that was on the cusp of an intriguing new phase.
In a surprisingly conciliatory Musique Plus interview conducted just prior to the album's release, Cobain stated that In Utero would mark the end of Nirvana as grunge torchbearers and, throughout the record, the band screech and howl like they're skinning themselves alive to expedite their reinvention. But not a lyric goes by on the album where Cobain doesn't sound conflicted between what he wants to do and what he feels he has to do. The scowling verses of "Serve the Servants" are countered by the chorus' soothing incantation of the song's title, as if Cobain had to anesthetize himself in order to answer his audience's populist demands. You didn't need to hear the feedback assault of "Radio Friendly Unit Shifter" to sense the irony reeking from its title, while the sludgy savagery of "Milk It" deploys Cobain's fascinations with bodily fluids and birthing to depict a soul being run through the music-industry wringer. Though Cobain claimed in the aforementioned interview that the deliberately bald language of "Rape Me" was his response to misinterpretations of Nirvana's more ambiguous portraits of sexual/power dynamics ("Polly", "About a Girl"), the fact that it cops the riff to his most famous song unsubtly directs the titular demand to his hit-seeking minders; when he answers his request by repeating "I'm not the only one," he seems to be placating himself with the knowledge that he's not the first punk-rocker caught in a boardroom power play. (And, in light of Cobain's mounting disdain for the media, I can't be the only person who's always heard that line in "All Apologies" as "choking on the ashes of her NME.")
But this set supports the theory that Cobain didn't necessarily fear or hate success; his real struggle was achieving it on his own terms. If he really wanted to clear the room, he could've made In Utero a lot weirder than it actually turned out to be: among the outtakes here is "Gallons of Rubbing Alcohol Flowing Through the Strip" (which previously surfaced stateside on the barrel-scraping 2004 box set With the Lights Out), an exceedingly odd, stream-of-consciousness ramble that sees Cobain, Krist Novoselic, and Dave Grohl adopting the art-damaged inscrutability of then-underground darlings Pavement. Also included are Albini's supposedly contentious original mixes for In Utero's two singles, "Heart-Shaped Box" and "All Apologies", which the band eventually handed over to R.E.M. associate Scott Litt to create the spit-shined radio-friendly versions that wound up on the final record. Furthermore, Litt's crisper alternate take of "Penny Royal Tea" (which scrubs off a layer of its Sebadohian scuzz) is featured here as a reinforcement of Nirvana's acquiescent impulses -- it first appeared on a special edition of In Utero created specifically for Wal-Mart that swapped out the title of "Rape Me" for the more big-box-shopper-friendly "Waif Me." (That the differences between the Albini and Litt's mixes are slight speaks to the sort of nitpicking the band were being subjected from without and within.) And in hearing the unvarnished demos of "Scentless Apprentice" and "Radio Friendly Unit Shifter", you get a clearer sense of just how much refinement and fierce discipline they were subjected to before being presented to the public. (In particular, the versions featured in the band's MTV Live and Loud concert from December 1993 -- included in a deluxe four-disc version of this set -- perfectly encapsulate the In Utero ideal of arena-rock at its most anarchic.)
There's also evidence here to suggest that, in spite of In Utero's caustic reputation, Nirvana were also keen to explore more sophisticated songcraft. "Sappy" was presumably kept off the In Utero tracklist (and punted over to the No Alternative charity compilation) due to its strong resemblance to Nevermind corkers like "Drain You", but it still stands as one of Cobain's purest, most effortless power-pop gestures, while the hushed B-side ballad "Marigold" serves as a test flight for Grohl's Foo Fighters. Most surprising of all is an early demo of "All Apologies" with an acoustic, countrified shimmer that could practically pass for a CCR golden oldie, transmuting the song's overarching sense of resignation into bright-eyed, fresh-start optimism. Though Nirvana obviously had second thoughts about assuming such a radically chipper guise, that sort of willingness to mess with their essence would carry over to the band's subsequent touring formation, on which ex-Germs guitarist Pat Smear was added to fill out the sound and the sight of guest cellists was not uncommon.
This exploratory ethos also informs In Utero's new 2013 mix, overseen by Albini with input from Novoselic, Grohl, and Smear. Strangely enough, the revamp was inspired by another rock icon who died at 27: Novoselic recently revealed the idea came to him after hearing a gussied-up Doors compilation that emphasized certain, previously unnoticed sonic details. Albini, however, has offered a more pragmatic rationale: In Utero's quick gestation period meant some mixing decisions were made off-the-cuff, resulting in various instrumental parts, alternate guitar solos, and harmony lines being left out. As he told podcaster Vish Khanna, his intention was not to replace the 1993 mix, but to simply take a snapshot of the same songs "from a different angle." The new version is in fact more textured and nuanced, but not at the expense of the album's bone-dry, brutalizing crunch. Most of its touch-ups are tastefully unobtrusive and illuminating, like the unearthed cello lines creeping behind the chorus of "Serve the Servants" that bring a greater sense of melancholy to the fore, or the screeching strings and slowly decaying fadeout of "All Apologies" that lend a more palpable degree of finality to the proceedings. But there are times where the listening experience is reduced to a parlor game of spotting what's been added and what's been omitted: On the upside, "Scentless Apprentice" now sounds like it's being screamed into a toilet, pushing the song to exciting new levels of gnarliness, but excising the cello parts that are so integral to "Dumb" is, well, kinda dumb.
Fittingly, for an album that starkly contrasts Nirvana's melodic and maniacal extremes, In Utero: 20th Anniversary Edition highlights another inherent contradiction: much like the Beatles' Let It Be, what was originally intended to be a raw, back-to-basics reaction to past excesses has, ironically, been subjected to so much over-thinking and console-board tinkering (this latest mix constituting its Let It Be… Naked moment of revisionism). But all these mutations reflect the restless, irrepressible nature of these songs, which-- whether in the form of crude demos or modern-day remasters-- still sting and ooze like a flesh wound that refuses to heal. And yet In Utero is the sort of painful shock that, paradoxicalaly, reinstills the empowering sensation of feeling alive. Cobain may have been bored, but he checked out before he grew old; when listening to his final collection of songs, you forget, for a little while, the possibility of either.

Ten years ago, the property changed hands and emerged as the "Genesis Dreamplex." After $6M in renovations, the facility is once again ready for a re-boot.
Wednesday at 10 a.m., 13abc is set for a sneak peek inside the Genesis Village, which is still under construction.
Once completed, the living center for senior citizens will have 138 1- and 2-bedroom apartments. Plus, a pool and fitness center, library, multi-media room and salon, all under one roof. The project, partially funded through a $600,000 block grant, is expected to be completed in the next few months. Genesis Village is on track to open in the summer of 2013.

YAVATMAL: The proposal of Yavatmal Municipal Council submitted to the state government for allotment of land for its project to recycle garbage and generate power on built-operate-transfer (BOT) basis has been pending in the mantralaya since the last few months.
After moving from one department to other, the file is learnt to have been sent back to the district collector's office for certain compliances. The council decided to undertake the project as the administration is often criticized for poor job in removing waste and garbage from the city limit. Shortage of manpower and machinery also hamper efforts to remove garbage and keep the city clean.
In order to crate hygienic surroundings, the previous municipal officials had contacted a Thane-based private power manufacturing company and sought guidance to tackle the garbage problem. An expert team of the company had visited Yavatmal in September last year and inspected a few sites to set up the plant.
A piece of land situated at village Sawargad, 8km from the city and owned by the council, was selected for setting up the new plant.
The company required 4 acres and the municipal authorities agreed to go ahead with the project. The land is to be leased to the company for at least 30 years. But the council cannot go ahead as it can lease it only for 7 years. Since the company is investing over Rs 25 crore, it wants 30-year lease. A proposal to increase the lease time was sent to the state government through the district collector but is yet to be cleared. The file was recently sent back to the collector's office for filing four new proforma.

From Code Design for Dependable Systems
As was shown in Figure 1.11 in Subsection 1.4.1, error location falls midway between the
functions of error correction and error detection. In the codes designed by Wolf and Elspas,
the codeword is divided into p distinct bytes, each having b-bit length. The code detects
e(< b) or fewer errors, all occurring within a single byte and identifies that byte. For this
reason the code is referred to as the Single e-bit (within a b-bit byte) Error Locating code, or
Se/bEL code. For instance, if we let Ei(Ej) be the set of e or fewer errors occurring within the
i(j)-th byte, the code must satisfy the relation
The number of check bits r is bounded from below by
where [x] is the smallest integer not less than x.
In general, the error locating code is derived from the tensor product of the parity-check
matrices [WOLF65a].

It's shit like this that pisses me off... My daughter has lung problems and has been on steroids for going on three years now because of it, she gets sick easily and has to be on oxygen when she gets sick. I NEVER smoked, drank or did any drugs while pregnant with her, I did everything humanly posible to make sure she was healthy. My friend smoked everyday with her child who was born a couple weeks after my daughter and has absolutely nothing wrong with her.. What did I or my daughter do to deserve this, ABABSOLUTELY NOTHING but your over here lol'ing when you knowingly put your child in harm wtf!!! I pray that your baby continues to grow and you have a healthy baby boy and I hope for future reference you think of not only yourself but your child as well.
Posted 03/24/2013
OP, I'm gonna put myself in the line of fire here and don't know if you're still even following this thread. I am also struggling with this and not proud to admit it. The reason I'm sticking my neck out is to share what is helping me. I've tried quiting cold turkey, picturing baby with a cigarette, etc and neither worked. I'm a visual person and that usually helps me but picturing the baby smoking didn't help because he obviously can't do that even though he is affected by me smoking one. What is helping was something my OB said last week. I had also been told 5 a day is okay but I don't buy it. It can't be! I approached the subject again with the OB and this is what she said...picture your baby shaking with withdraw in the nursery from going cold turkey because THAT is exactly what happens. They shake, they cry, they hurt, they don't understand. She said I still have 6 weeks and it is NEVER to late to quit. That visual, a very very real one, is helping tremendously. In not there yet but am close. Maybe it will help you to visualize the same? Good luck momma, everyone else, bash away. I can guarantee you that I've said worse to myself.

A 15-year-old Timbuktu girl received 60 lashes after Islamist extremists
convicted her of speaking to men on the street. The girl was allegedly
caught speaking with men by the militant Islamist group Ansar Dine, who
control Timbuktu and much of northern Mali.

Published in Africa
Keywords: Timbuktu, Ansar Dine, whipping, Islmaist extremists
LOS ANGELES, CA (Catholic Online) - One resident claimed the girl was warned repeatedly by the group to stop talking to men in public, but she persisted.
"The Islamists said that the girl was warned five times by Islamist police but she continued to speak to men in the street," Timbuktu resident Ousmane Maiga says.
"After the hearing, the Islamists gave 60 lashes to the girl. The population did not turn out in large numbers to attend this flogging."
The whipping took place in full view of the public in front of the new headquarters of the Islamic police in downtown Timbuktu, next to Independence Square.
Ansar Dine, whose name translates to Defenders of Faith is the most prevalent of a number of al-Qaeda-linked groups that have seized northern Mali after a power vacuum opened by a military coup in the south in March.
The group has imposed Sharia law throughout the territory. They intend on imposing the strict Islamic laws across Mali.
In an incident in July, a man was lashed 40 times by Ansar Dine after being accused of drinking alcohol.
"A young man has just been lashed 40 times for drinking alcohol. The whipping took place in the Timbuktu market," a resident of Timbuktu told reporters. The man was later treated in hospital for his injuries.
A man and woman accused of having a child out of wedlock were given 100 lashes each in Timbuktu last June.
Ansar Dine has also destroyed all the city's bars.
The group first became notorious for demolishing many of the ancient city's shrines to Muslim saints, as the jihadists think this is a form of idolatry.
In addition, another Islamist group, the Movement for Oneness and Jihad in West Africa (MUJAO), has burnt cigarettes, whipped smokers and forbidden people to play football or watch television in territories under its control. This has provoked violent protests in May in the northern city of Gao.
