Michelle Bachelet Wins Presidential Elections in Chile
16 December 2013
We hereby wish to convey our warmest congratulations to Michelle Bachelet on her victory in the presidential elections of Chile.
All of us that are part of the Socialist International Women (SIW) are very proud of her victory and of her inspiring campaign that strengthened the political values of equality, social justice and democracy. With her vision for a more just and equitable future for all, Michelle Bachelet was able to captivate again the Chilean people.
We know how hard she has worked and how hard she will continue to work to realise her vision. We also know her passion for women's issues and we are confident that she will continue to work for the advancement of women's rights in her country.
As always, Michelle Bachelet has our full support and we wish her personally, her future government and Chile all the very best.
Nelson Mandela
18 July 1918 – 05 December 2013
The Socialist International Women (SIW) was deeply saddened by the death of Nelson Mandela, South Africa's first black president and Nobel Peace Prize winner. We would like to send our wholehearted condolences to Nelson Mandela's family, to everyone at the African National Congress (ANC) and to the South African people who have lost their 'father of the nation'.
Nelson Mandela was an inspiration to all generations all over the world. He worked unwaveringly to free his country from racial division and dedicated his life to his people and to the causes of justice, freedom and equality for all.
Mandela also worked ardently to end gender oppression and was a champion of women's rights. When elected president of South Africa, he appointed over one-third of women to his cabinet, many of those women went on to occupy even higher positions, and today have become role models for many other women politicians all over the world.
Our thoughts are with the ANC and with the South African people in this sad day of the passing of an extraordinary leader and a man of greatness, peace, humility and compassion.
Declaration: International Day for the Elimination of Violence against Women
25 November 2013
Ending gender violence is high on the agenda this International Day to End Violence Against Women – now highlighted every 25 of the month in UN Secretary General Ban Ki-Moon's UNiTE to End Violence against Women campaign.
One in three women worldwide experience violence in their lifetime, ranging from 15 to 76 percent depending on where they live, with most violence occurring within intimate relationships, inflicted by a husband or partner. And during armed conflict or natural disaster women's risk of violence increases, for example 21 per cent of female refugees escaping the Syrian civil war to Lebanon reported violence and seven per cent sexual violence...

With the release hubbub going on for the PS4 and the Xbox One, we sometimes forget there is going to be another console released this year, as well. As someone who has a vast amount of retro games and increasingly limited space, I've been looking forward to the RetroN 5 ever since it was announced. My hands-on with it at E3 2013 only made my excitement for it more intense. Well, the wait is almost over! The RetroN 5 will be released December 10th!
For those unfamiliar with the RetroN 5, it's a console that can play all your NES, SNES, Genesis, Famicom, and GBA cartridges with added modern conveniences, such as save states, upscaled resolutions and sound. Be sure to order yours today!
Read the original press release below.
Hyperkin to Release RetroN 5 on December 10, 2013
Leading video game peripherals company to release the RetroN 5 during holiday season.
EL MONTE, CA (SEPTEMBER 2013) – Hyperkin has set December 10, 2013 as the official release date for the RetroN 5. The RetroN 5 plays NES, SNES, Genesis and GBA cartridges all in one convenient console. The US release will coincide with the European release, with the MSRP set at $99.99 in the US and €89.99 in the European territories.
Hyperkin explains the delay in release was due to several key modifications made to the console shown at E3. The shell design was changed to allow for better ventilation, as well as accommodations to use the Sega Power Base Converter allowing users to play Master System cartridges on the console.
All versions of the RetroN 5 will come with an power adapter with four variable head sockets to fit multiple regions with the voltage ranging from 110 to 240 volts.
Hyperkin also confirms that the release date of October 31, 2013 listed on Amazon was a placeholder, and that Amazon has been contacted to correct the release date.
"RetroN 5 will be the most amazing classic game console." said Steven Mar, Hyperkin's Executive Director. "We thank everyone who has been patient and supportive of Hyperkin during development."

Keene, N.H. - The president of a once-prominent Keene construction company has been charged with aggravated felonious sexual assault and kidnapping, the Keene Sentinel reported.
Frederick L. Baybutt, 53, of Keene, is accused of sexually assaulting a woman through the actual application of physical force, and kidnapping the woman by preventing her from leaving the residence where the incident allegedly occurred, according to complaints from N.H. State Police.
Arrest warrants and police affidavits related to the case have been sealed by the court until Sept. 27, according to a clerk at 8th Circuit Court District Division in Keene.
In February, Baybutt filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy, stating he owed between $1 million and $10 million to creditors (filings do not allow for more specific numbers). Chapter 11 bankruptcy allows the debtor to reorganize while being shielded from creditors.
Baybutt Construction was accused not paying subcontractors for projects, including the Keene fire station, the Rockingham Town Library and the state office building in Vermont.
Baybutt Construction Corp., a family-run business, was founded in 1964.
Frederick Baybutt was arraigned in 8th Circuit Court District Division in Keene on Friday morning and ordered held on $10,000 cash bail. He has a probable cause hearing scheduled in the Keene court on Sept. 4.MORE IN This Just InMONTPELIER This election cycle is shaping up to be a favorable one for Vermont incumbents.

Congratulations to all the winners of the JewishPress.com raffle at The Event
I sit here mulling over the results of my latest PET Scan (Positron Emission Tomography), a nuclear medicine imaging technique which produces a three-dimensional image or picture (in color) of my innards and of the latest actions of the "bad buggars" that have invaded me (as I live through quite a serious case of cancer).
The interesting thing I am noticing in my mind/body reactions is that I am pretty calm and thinking of both the GPS and Sukkot.
The GPS (Global Positioning System) was developed in 1973 and is a satellite-based navigation system made up of a network of 24 satellites placed into orbit by the U.S. Department of Defense. GPS was originally intended for military applications, but in the 1980s, the government made the system available for civilian use. GPS works in any weather conditions, anywhere in the world, 24 hours a day. There are no subscription fees or setup charges, GPS but you do need some kind of gizmo to get it to work. Its commercial iteration is available for purchase for your car or even to walk around with and can help you find an address when you are lost.
Basically it takes your position and searches for the address you load into it and gives you visual or oral guided directions on how to get there.
I can't seem to find the author (it may be ChaCha) of these lyrics to the GPS song on Google but I am quoting them:
"I'm driving down a road that I don't know. I need some help along the way. I can't see the street signs. Which way do I turn? Then I hear a familiar voice say: 'Recalculating.' Where am I and how do I find my way out? Make a U Turn – at the very next intersection."
While these lyrics are bouncing around my head, I am thinking of Bnai Yisrael not long out of Egypt walking with the help of Clouds of Honor (Ananai HaKavod) directing them and protecting them. It is only generations later when they arrive in Israel (according to the Rambam, Maimonides) that they are told that now that they are home, they have to leave their houses and move into a temporary booth, sukkah, for the week of Tabernacles.
My mind wanders and wonders what Hashem was trying to teach us and alights on kind of weird idea. There is an important lesson here: to keep our internal GPS in tune with our surroundings. There is no better way to appreciate and re-think about where we are and where we are going, if not by stepping back from a place of comfort, in this case our home, and move out to a temporary dwelling.
I am frequently asked how I've managed to keep a somewhat even keel during this turbulent period of my life; I say the GPS helps me. This is usually received with a somewhat odd look. I will explain with a personal story.
When the GPS in cars first came out my husband and I had just rented a car at LAX (Los Angeles) and as an introduction Hertz provided one such gizmo free of charge. I sat in the parking lot reading the instructions as my husband loaded our luggage into the car. When he got in I asked him if he wanted a woman's voice giving directions or a man's voice.
This turned into a psychological discussion about dealing with authority figures in an area where one feels super qualified. He finally decided, with a twinkle in his eye, that a woman was appropriate as he was used to taking "orders" from a woman. "Oh", I said with a twinkle in my eye, "for example your mother." In any case the gender of the voice was easily changeable if he thought differently about it as we drove to our destination.
I should add that we had lived in Los Angeles for over three years and been back many times a year since we left, so we knew short-cuts.
We began with the not-unpleasant female voice saying "take a right" and so forth. There was an area which we were familiar with and did not listen to her as we knew a short-cut. She – the voice on the GPS – began to get somewhat hysterical, telling us to "make a right NOW!!" We didn't and there was a moment of silence and then she. said: "Re-calculating," and began to give directions from our new location.

A helicopter was forced to make an emergency landing in the middle of Ashland City Highway on Tuesday afternoon.
The pilot, Lenny Sikora, says he and his girlfriend were traveling from Key Largo to Wisconsin when they lost power and the helicopter dropped.
Sikora said they had to clear the wires, so they landed in the middle of the roadway near Old Hickory Boulevard and pushed it to the side of the road.
No one was injured, but there was some damage to the tail of the helicopter.
