A former New Zealand television host has come under fire after ambushing British Prime Minister David Cameron on live TV with a list of Tory party members he suspected of being paedophiles after a quick internet search.
Presenter of UK breakfast show This Morning Phillip Schofield has issued an apology for a "misjudged camera angle", the Daily Mail reported.
Schofield was born in Oldham, Greater Manchester, but moved to New Zealand with his family when he was 19. He made his TV debut here as the host of children's music show Shazam in 1982, and also had a stint working for Radio Hauraki.
Live on the ITV1 show yesterday (NZ time), Schofield handed a list of Tory Party names to the Prime Minister he suspected of being paedophiles after a "three minute cursory glance" at the internet.
For a brief moment, as the Prime Minister handed the card back, Schofield flashed it toward the camera and at least two of the names were feared to be visible.
This Morning has a viewership of millions.
Cameron condemned the stunt, saying it could quickly turn into a witch hunt if not careful.
"Particularly against people who are gay," he said.
Later, Downing Street stepped up their criticism saying instead of trying to embarrass the Prime Minister, any evidence should be handed to the police.
The Mail reported a spokesman for Cameron told a media briefing: "We shouldn't have people just throwing names and allegations around and trial by Twitter. The right way to deal with these matters is to go to the police."
Schofield apologised for allowing the names on the card to be visible.
"If any viewer was able to identify anyone listed, I would like to apologise and stress that was never my intention."
Meanwhile, a Tory MP has written a public letter the Office of Communications asking whether they will investigate.
Britain has been rocked by revelations that once-beloved BBC presenter Jimmy Savile sexually abused hundreds of children throughout his decades-long career.
Savile died last year aged 82, but while it has emerged many knew of his crimes nothing was investigated until this year.
It follows recent claims by Newsnight host Steve Messham that he was abused by a former top Tory at the Bryn Estyn home in North Wales during the Thatcher era.
Those claims are now at the centre of a government inquiry.
Labour MP Tom Watson also claimed in the Commons last month that a former No. 10 aide had links to a paedophile ring in the early 1990s. Several names have been circulating online ever since.
Cameron was appearing on This Morning to discuss a new drive to tackle dementia when he was ambushed by Schofield.
Schofield alleged "there could have been a cover-up, a paedophile ring amongst the elite of great Britain that led all the way to Downing Street".

Lloyds expects external environment to remain challenging in 2012
Remains confident that medium-term financial targets, as set out in its June 2011 Strategic Review are achievable over time. Lloyds says as anticipated, it now expects the attainment of income related targets, including for other operating income, to be delayed beyond 2014 as a result of the weaker than expected economic outlook. As a consequence, also expects the attainment of its return on equity target to be delayed beyond 2014. Given expectation of further deposit growth, expect to reach medium-term Group loan-to-deposit ratio target of 130% or below by the end of 2012, two years ahead of plan. For 2012, Lloyds expects income to be lower than 2011 given the economic outlook, further non-core asset reductions, subdued demand in the core loan book, higher wholesale funding costs, and interest rates likely to remain at low levels for longer. Also sees full year banking net interest margin to be below 2% in 2012, falling year-on-year by approximately the same amount in 2012 as in 2011, primarily driven by continuing high wholesale funding costs.

In a decision that will not please the Roman Catholic Church, Brazil's Supreme Court has ruled that same-sex couples deserve the same legal rights that married heterosexuals receive.
Given that the Wisconsin Constitution explicitly bars same-sex couples from marrying, the state's newly instituted domestic partnership registry may seem cold comfort, but it does offer some rights, like hospital visitation and property-related benefits.

How do APIs and IoT relate? The answer is not as simple as merely adding an API on top of a dumb device, but rather about understanding the architectural patterns for implementing an IoT fabric. There are typically two or three trends: Exposing the device to a management framework Exposing that management framework to a business centric logic Exposing that business layer and data to end users. This last trend is the IoT stack, which involves a new shift in the separation of what stuff happens, where data lives and where the interface lies. For instance, it's a mix of architectural styles ...

We are reaching the end of the beginning with WebRTC, and real systems using this technology have begun to appear. One challenge that faces every WebRTC deployment (in some form or another) is identity management. For example, if you have an existing service – possibly built on a variety of different PaaS/SaaS offerings – and you want to add real-time communications you are faced with a challenge relating to user management, authentication, authorization, and validation. Service providers will want to use their existing identities, but these will have credentials already that are (hopefully) i...

Project members are working to take the scalability and openness of the web and use it to talk to the exponentially exploding range of smart devices. Nearly every company today working on the IoT comes up with the same basic solution: use my server and you'll be fine.

text: Moein was born in Najafabad, Isfahan. He was so fond of his birthplace that even though Tehran had become the Center of all artists, he still stayed in Isfahan and continued to perform at the "Shah Abbas" Hotel. He currently resides in Santa Rosa, California. In 1982, after Writing "Yeki Ra Doost Midaram", he left the country. In one of his interviews, Moein actually explains that his song "Yeki Ra Doost Midaram" had been performed by Hayedeh (famous Persian singer before him) by the time he arrived to L.A.. However, it was his version which became very popular and lead Moein to his first hit. It's interesting to note that even today many people think Moein performed Hayedeh's song. Around this period his songs drew a lot of attention. Moein continued to produce hit after hit. These were all great hits not only in Iran, but also outside of Iran. Nasrallah has given the reader a prominent Iranian pop music. His given name is known more. He is now living in America and in Santa Rosa, California lives.

Apps: Assassin's Creed Pirates, Doctor Who: Legacy, Double Dragon Trilogy + Foursquare 7.0
Ubisoft's Assassin's Creed Pirates ($5) is an Assassin's Creed game in name only, with only the most modest link to the console games. Instead of tracking down human targets from a first-person perspective, Pirates puts players behind the wheel of a pirate ship. It's a turn-based naval battle game with very modest need for quick interactions, and players can upgrade their weapons, crew, and ships as the game progresses. You might enjoy it as long as you can distance your expectations from the Assassin's Creed name; the graphics are extremely impressive, apart from the odd juxtaposition of cutout-like 2-D art atop fully 3-D worlds and ships.
Doctor Who: Legacy from Tiny Rebel Games (free) has arrived, likely much to the delight of the multitudes of Whovians. A turn-based puzzle/strategy game, Doctor Who: Legacy lets players revisit old episodes from the TV series. Episodes from seasons six and seven are available at launch, with more episodes and characters to be added daily.
Double Dragon Trilogy ($3) from DotEmu features emulated versions of the original three arcade games, Double Dragon, Double Dragon 2: The Revenge, and Double Dragon 3: The Rosetta Stone. Bear in mind that if you were a fan of the NES game Double Dragon 3: The Sacred Stones, this Double Dragon 3 isn't the same title—and you'll note in Rosetta Stone that there are even prompts to insert coins for extra power-ups. Graphics and sounds are what you'd expect from relatively late 8-bit and early 16-bit titles, with the walk/punch/kick/jump gameplay that helped define the beat-em-up genre before Street Fighter II and other one-on-one titles took over. The collection promises gamepad support "very soon," but for now, onscreen controls are required, and still a little glitchy on the iPad, which DotEmu really should address.
Foursquare has updated its free location scouting and check-in app to version 7.0. Completely redesigned for iOS 7, Foursquare claims the app is smarter — it can now offer information when you arrive somewhere new, even if the app isn't open, though you can opt out of that feature if you prefer. Additionally, each time the app is opened, different information is offered, with more to be discovered with a swipe.

In the Double Dragon Trilogy, you are getting emulations of the actual coin-operated arcade games, not the home console versions. The NES Double Dragon III was only loosely based on the arcade version. But beyond that, yeah, they are typical 8-bit or 16-bit, although a bit more advanced than the home consoles, since the arcade machines were more powerful than the consoles at the time.

Mine doesn't either, apparently that is the way they came out. I bought mine new back when they first came out. Back then most of the time shows packaged like that came in a sleeve. It always seemed like something was missing but I never saw another copy to compare. It didn't help that the store where I got it was quite capable of re shrink wrapping something. It was also weirdly priced.

Yeah, I thought that was weird too, who doesn't put a sleeve on something like that?
Otakon wasn't enough... Right Stuf had just the sale I was looking for and I added something from the Udon sale too.
13th Boy 5, 9 (complete, because I arranged a trade for 6 of the other volumes)
Goong 16 (a pre-order, which I don't usually do for manga, but I always end up having to buy this series online anyway and Right Stuf has the best prices even without a Yen sale. It doesn't come out until the end of September, but it just made sense to pre-order it right now since I wanted other things)
Gurren Lagann art works (I had a tough time deciding between this and Persona 3, so I went over to Amazon where the one review flipped through both books and I determined I liked the GL one more right now)
Higurashi Festival Accompanying Arc 3, 4 series v 24, 25 (been meaning to get these for a few months really. Would've completed the series until Dice Killing was announced, one can never have enough Higurashi it would appear).
Hissing 6 (complete)
There were other things I wanted, but I'll eventually get the Blue Seed anime at some point (probably Xmas sale or something). I was gonna order some Slam Dunk, but I have plenty of money in my paypal, which Rakuten accepts, so I'll probably get it there (36-37% off per vol is good, if I get $40 worth, free shipping too). I was just gonna order two vols on Right Stuf, but I need 8 more vols total for the series.

Went to the used store today, got Slayers seasons 1-3 Funimation set for about $30 after tax. That's about what it is online if not a little cheaper, I looked at Otakon of course, but nothing was cheap enough there, so I got it here!
I also picked up Venture Bros season 5, on DVD actually, because I had $5 coupon at Best Buy that was expiring soon and the DVD was on sale $10, the blu ray $27.

I bought myself a nice little group of anime and manga at Otakon. Found some good dvd/bluray deals on Sunday at booths. There's also always a cheap manga booth that sells them for $5 a piece or 5 for $20. The selection is not the biggest but I always find some missing volumes I need. Can't beat the price.

Studio Ghibli Bluray Review-a-thon Day 10: Howl's Moving Castle
It's the second-to-last day of the Ghiblithon and that means it's time to explore the weird, wild, occasionally nonsensical world of Howl and Sadie. ― As Hayao Miyazaki films by Studio Ghibli go, this 2004 adaptation of the novel by acclaimed British author Diana Wynne Jones stands somewhere in the middle of the pack. Though it earned the second Academy Award nomination for a Miyazaki work, it is nei...
House of 1000 Manga - Summit of the Gods
Shaenon gives thanks today for Jiro Taniguchi's manly man manga about manly men scaling manly mountains. ― The Summit of the Gods Jiro Taniguchi is an artist who hasn't made nearly as many appearances in the House of 1,000 Manga as he could. Jason Thompson discussed his blissfully plotless Walking Man a million years ago, he has a story in Japan as Viewed by 17 Creators, and is that really the only ...
The X Button - Toad to Victory
This week, we examine the enigma of Toad and his big comeback game! Plus Etrian Odyssey crossovers, Guilty Gear accents, and some old remixes. ― I probably should address Thanksgiving this week, but it doesn't look like anyone, from department stores to pop-cultural commentators, wants to bother with it. That's OK with me. We'll move on to Christmas and its surrounding video game releases. One of th...
Studio Ghibli Bluray Review-a-thon Day 9: Kiki's Delivery Service
The Ghiblithon starts winding down with the last of three new bluray releases, the tale of a little witch, her talking cat, and a whole lot of coming of age. ― Kiki's Delivery Service was not Hayao Miyazaki's movie at first. Based on the book by Eiko Kadono, the film initially rested with a team of younger animators at Studio Ghibli. Yet the project hit snags, and Miyazaki, as he often does at his st...
Studio Ghibli Bluray Review-a-thon Day 8: Princess Mononoke
Day 8 of the Ghiblithon is all about one of Miyazaki's most celebrated films, arriving on bluray this month in a somewhat compromised, but still gorgeous, state. ― There was a brief moment where Hayao Miyazaki's Princess Mononoke was the top-grossing film in Japan. It came out in the summer of 1997 there, and it was an instant phenomenon, its box office glory stolen mere months later when James Camer...
Pile of Shame FINAL: Chie the Brat
The Pile of Shame recedes into the mists of history with one final installment, on Isao Takahata's criminally underseen Chie the Brat. ― Well folks, we've come to the end of the road.

Also, there's only so much appetite for articles on old and obscur...
Studio Ghibli Bluray Review-a-thon Day 7: From Up On Poppy Hill
It's Day 7 of our Ghiblithon and that means a nostalgia-tinged trip down to old Yokohama with Miyazakis both elder and junior, accompanied by Mike Toole. ― There was an undeniable air of suspicion that arose when Goro Miyazaki was named as director of Tales from Earthsea. After all, the son of Hayao Miyazaki had spent a lengthy career as a landscape architect, before eventually coming to work for the...

A fanservice-heavy, dungeon-crawling, number-crunching marriage between Etrian Odyssey and Personas 3 and 4.

Though the series seem at odds with each other--Etrian Odyssey's barely-there story clashes with Persona's sappy melodrama an...

UPDATE 1-Yildiz unit confirms Turkish telecoms financing talks
(Adds comments from Gozde CEO)
ISTANBUL, June 13 (Reuters) - Gozde Girisim, the listed private equity unit of Turkish conglomerate Yildiz Holding, is in talks on a "structured financing" concerning the country's telecoms industry but is not planning to partner in the business, its chief executive said on Friday.
Cem Karakas did not say why the firm was seeking funds, but it is widely expected to provide another conglomerate, Cukurova Holding, with financing to recover its disputed stake in the country's biggest mobile phone operator Turkcell .
Three sources close to the matter said earlier this week that Cukurova would receive financing from a local partner, and two of the sources said Cukurova would obtain it from Yildiz.
"Gozde is in talks on structured financing for the telecoms sector, but we don't have plans at present to invest and become a partner in the telecoms sector," Karakas told Reuters. The firm declined to say what it meant by a "structured" financing.
Gozde's shares fell 2.75 percent to 3.18 lira. Ulker, Turkey's biggest foodmaker which is also owned by Yildiz, declined 2.23 percent to 17.55 lira, while Turkcell's shares were 0.7 percent higher at 13.60 lira.
Cukurova and Altimo, the telecoms investment arm of Russian billionaire Mikhail Fridman's Alfa Group, have been fighting for seven years over control of Turkcell, choking decision-making at the firm and preventing the payment of dividends.
At the same time Swedish company TeliaSonera, which owns an effective 37 percent of Turkcell, has been embroiled in a separate but related dispute with Cukurova concerning a claim for damages after the Turkish company reneged on an earlier deal to sell TeliaSonera part of its stake in Turkcell.
The Turkish government sees Turkcell as an asset vital to national interests and wants control to remain in Turkish hands and has been pushing for a local corporate partner to help Cukurova raise the $1.6 billion it was ordered by the judicial body of the UK's Privy Council last July to pay Alfa to recover its stake, the sources said earlier this week.
Cukurova said earlier this week it was in talks to arrange financing to pay Alfa.
Cukurova's owner is Mehmet Emin Karamehmet, Turkey's 13th richest person, according to Forbes magazine, which estimates his wealth at $1.5 billion, while Yildiz's chairman Murat Ulker is ranked as the country's richest person with $3.7 billion.

If the participant numbers in Thursday night's "We're Back" street parade is any indication, there's little doubt that last year's bowl-record 42,841 attendance at the New Orleans Bowl won't just be broken, it'll be shattered when UL takes on East Carolina at 11 a.m. Saturday in the Mercedes-Benz Superdome.
Including the UL Pride of Acadiana marching band that led the way, the crowd that left the headquarters New Orleans Marriott wasn't far from the 1,000 mark ... and it might have hit that figure as more and more people joined the fray. By the time the parade turned right off Canal Street and headed up Bourbon Street, Cajun and non-Cajun fans were falling into the "second line."
"Who are all these people?" one bewildered onlooker and likely New Orleans tourist was heard to say on the parade route.
"There are a lot more people here than last year," said UL athletics director Scott Farmer, who was in the banner-waving and loudly-screaming pack.
"That was pretty special to see," said Cajun coach Mark Hudspeth, who watched the parade depart the Marriott before returning to his team-preparation duties. "I tell people all the time how special our fans are and how great they support us, and they're showing it down here."
It wasn't just the parade participants who were into the spirit of the New Orleans Bowl. Onlookers from Bourbon Street balconies had red UL-logo flags hanging from the wrought iron and waved "Geaux Cajuns" signs, and several French Quarter establishments were bedecked with the same decorative scheme.

Reportedly, the UL band made several other stops for impromptu concerts for much of the evening. Can't say that for sure, since Pat O'Brien's brought a premature end to the parade for at least a couple of participants.
Pat O'Brien's iconic piano bar was awash in Cajun supporters, and UL's fight song roared out of that site on a regular basis — especially when Lafayette's Michael McGehee took his turn in the rotation on one of the bar's pianos.
Locals wanting to hear something similar Friday night can join Michael and the rest of the Mageez group performing at 10 p.m. at the House of Blues, an easy walk from the Marriott.
That, of course, will follow up the New Orleans Bowl's Friday night concert, one that features musical icons the Beach Boys and Bad Company and gets underway at 5:30 at Champions Square next to the Superdome. The free concert is open to any and all ... even the outnumbered East Carolina fans, and especially the ones who had to suffer through the Louisiana and Cajun-related playlist at Pat O'Brien's before departing into the breezy Thursday night air.
It's a good thing that the Cajun players got their free time in New Orleans early in the week, because the distraction of the hordes of UL followers became a reality in the Marriott lobby on Thursday. What was a small group of supporters turned into a packed house even before Thursday's walking parade, and it will likely be greater by Friday afternoon when UL hosts a FanFest from 3-5 p.m. in the Marriott's main ballroom. Roddy Romero and the Hub City All-Stars will perform there.
The musical entertainment never seems to stop. Even at Saturday's three tailgate party locations — the RCAF/Alumni Association gathering inside the 'Dome, the party at Rouse's supermarket parking lot not far from the 'Dome, and the bowl's official tailgate gathering at Champions Square — there will be performances by Krossfyre, Sammy Kershaw and Band Camp beginning not long after 8 a.m.
As Hudspeth might say, everyone should be juiced and ready to go for the 11 a.m. kickoff.
NOV 26 Zach Kopplin, who we came to know and love when he was a Louisiana high school student lobbying for the continued inclusion of science stuff in science class, pens this post in The Atlantic about a "textbook" available for social studies instruction in Texas that discusses how Moses contributed to the Constitution. (Oy! Texas rednecks love Jews. Who knew?)
NOV 26 Finally, mad people on the interwebz is a good thing! World wide webby outrage has caused the village of Moreauville to reverse its plan to confiscate pit bulls and Rottweillers and euthanize them simply because of their breed, WAFB reports here. The plan? They're going to enforce the leash law. Well, that would have been a good place to start.
NOV 26 Jim Brown, like many of us Louisiana voters, seems fed up with out of town know-it-alls trying to tell us what to do. Bill Cassidy can't make it through the day without flying someone in to "tell us political retards" how to vote, he says.
NOV 26 Blogger Tom Aswell is writing about the behavior of the two finalists in the 6th Congressional District race: Edwin Edwards and Garret Graves. Edwards has come out swinging, but Graves' campaign seems bent on snatching defeat from the jaws of victory, Tom says.
NOV 26 Blogger CB Forgotston is confused, he says, because Governor Bobby Jindal said higher education wouldn't get cut, but it looks like it is being cut. CB's asking: When is a cut not a cut?
NOV 26 Unless you're in Virigina, you shouldn't count on seeing our Governor on Election Day. Mark Ballard writes in the Advocate's political blog that Bobby will be appearing at a GOP love fest of some kind there, instead of spending the day here.
NOV 26 This post on The Lens takes a look at the ongoing dispute in New Orleans over the banners about the upcoming tax election for the school system. The banners are hanging on schools, and some feel they are promotional, which is not allowed, instead of educational - which is allowed.
NOV 26 Not all college students are focused on football games and parties at this time of year. This post on DIG Baton Rouge recounts an LSU student group that tries to make sure that those who are hungry and homeless are not forgotten by those of us who aren't.
NOV 25 Edwin Edwards took off the gloves on Monday, this post on WAFB tells us. At a Press Club appearance, he wondered how his 6th Congressional District opponent, Garret Graves, could be an expert in all the areas in which he claims to be - when he has no college degree in anything. (Five years - FIVE YEARS - in college, but no degree. Huh?)
NOV 25 Blogger Mike Deshotels offers this primer on predatory charter schools and how they operate, specifically in Louisiana. They're not just profiting from our tax dollars, they're using children and shortchanging them to do so, Deshotels says.
NOV 25 Here's a link to the petition that has been created to save Zeus, a family dog who is targeted for death by the learned fathers of the Avoyelles Parish village of Moreauville. They passed an ordinance based on nothing that outlaws pit bulls and Rotweillers. As of Tuesday morning, the petition had more than 230,000 signatures - a number that's a wee bit higher than the village population of 929.

Palm Oil production : the real reason for major Ebola outbreak in Africa ?
The story is simple: as natural forest is slashed to make room for mono-crops, especially palm oil, the bats from the forest (who carry the Ebola virus) go looking for an alternative food source find it in palm oil : their population explodes and moves closer to human habitat , the end result: a major Ebola outbreak.
While "bush meat" and also eating fruit partially eaten by bats may a factor in spreading the virus, the practice of eating bush meat has existed for a long time, and antibodies against the virus have been found in people who live in the affected areas. In the most recent outbreak it was supposed to be a toddler's chance encounter with a fruit bat which led to the epidemic, so it's not clear how eating bush meat would even factor into this current outbreak.
Another case of mono cultures destroying the ecological balance?
Evolutionary biologist Robert Wallace explains the fact that neo-liberal policy and monoculture are the real driver of the massive Ebola outbreak in the following video with transcript
IPAN open letter to the PM and Defence Minister regarding treatment of Swan Island Peace Convergence activists
IPAN open letter to the PM and Defence Minister regarding treatment of Swan Island Peace Convergence activists
Wednesday 29th October 2014
Open letter to the Prime Minister Mr Tony Abbott and the Defence Minister Mr David Johnston
The Independent and Peaceful Australia Network (IPAN) bring together over 50 community based peace and justice organisations across Australia.
We wish to express our grave concern regarding the alleged actions of SAS personnel, towards a small group of peaceful protesters at Swan Island military base on the 2nd October.
It is our understanding the Swan Island Peace Convergence group has protested Australian involvement in foreign wars over the past 5 years with protesters treated lawfully and peacefully by the ADF and the Victorian Police Force.
We in the IPAN are concerned that the tactics used this time, which include hooding, stripping of clothing, physical and verbal violence from ADF personnel reflect the Australian government's current policies which restrict civil liberties on the basis of the threat of terrorism to Australian citizens.
The actions of the ADF personnel are reminiscent of the treatment of prisoners in the Abu Ghraib prison in 2004 by US troops, and indeed correlate with a number of inquiries into treatment of civilians by ADF personnel during Australian military engagement in Afghanistan.
We ask, are our young men and women in the ADF being trained to commit war crimes?
When viewed in the context of the government's decision to send Australian forces into Iraq for the 3rd time we express our concern that the people of our country are being constrained in their democratic rights to protest this engagement as it potentially grows into a major war.
The members of IPAN request that findings of the investigation by the Department of Defence into the actions of members of the ADF at Swan Island be made public.

Greens political body snatch of Gough Whitlam
While trying to make the case that Gough Whitlam's policy success are thanks to the Greens, (which did not exist at the time and Whitlam was never a member of) The greens have produce this rather shameful poster.
This really speaks volumes about the Greens, totally opportunistic, with gutter level morality and absolutely no sense of tact.
In this spirit of this shameful act on the memory of a man dead but not even buried yet, we put the shoe on the other fott and give to the greens another great progressive, Joe Hockey.
Most interestingly during the media frenzy around the passing of Whitlam there has been little mention of the constitutional crisis at the time of his sacking, because that would bring up the fact Australia has a constitution, and people might actually start asking questions about the limits of governmental powers it imposes. Fortunately the Greens will never attempt to claim credit for our work.
All roads privatised proposal
Of course this means that:
1) The roads will be sold off cheaply to the puppet masters corporations.
2) Roads will not be maintained.
3) No new roads will be built.
4) Your right to travel freely will be gone.
5) The road tolling system will be a means of universal surveillance
Of course roads can be built without a government, but why do that when you can get the public to pay for it, and then buy at cents in the dollar from the government you installed into office. Then of course ransom the general public for using the roads they paid for, that y0u just stole off them.
XBOX and Cheezles
Send all your empty Cheezles packets to Ewan Jones and you go in the draw for a job. Sounds great kids, so get off your XBOX and get posting those Cheezles!
Team Australia
The moment Tony Abbott coined this phrase it was yet another "suppository of wisdom" coming from Tony Abbott's mouth.
It had 'memebait' written all over it. Fortunately SMH was on the job.
For those too young to know what this all means allow me to explain. (Adult themes and language)
Relevance? Today is the first day Australian warplanes began flying armed over the regions disputed by Syria, Iraq and Kurdistan (and of course the boogeyman 'de jour'; ISIS).
In case there is any blow back, remember no one outside of the Australian political system voted for military intervention, If you want to blame anyone blame a politician.
Queensland cop caught stealing on video on duty
Of course the cop was never charged for the offense of stealing $1000 from an old woman while raiding her house for allegedly selling cannabis.
Shane Allan Stirling, reputation ruined.
Occupy Central Hong Kong
In response to China's planned erosion of democratic electoral process in the SAR of Hong Kong (China proposing to only allow their approved candidates to stand for election), an occupation has begun.
The people republic of China has always held democratic reforms as being dangerous and unpalatable and to this day many Chinese residents are completely unaware of the Tienanmen square pro democracy protest from 1989 and the gruesome way in which it ended.
Many of the protesters have taken to wearing eye protection with some using a improvised saran wrap (AKA cling film/ glad wrap) as a 'better than nothing' protection from presumably noxious gasses that may be released by authorities to break up the protest.
These guys are smart they are going straight to the heart of the beast, threatening to disrupt banking and finance in Hong Kong.
Breaking news:
Occupy Central appears to be under attack from police right now.

Ignored Rule Violation Is Tough to Correct
Published: Saturday, September 6, 2003 at 11:13 a.m.
Last Modified: Saturday, September 6, 2003 at 11:40 a.m.
Q. Our documents state that in order to amend the documents, 100 percent of the owners must vote to approve the change. About six years ago a prospective buyer obtained a letter from the president of our board permitting this prospective buyer to tile a second floor condo. This is restricted by our documents. Relying on this permission the prospective buyer purchased the second floor condo and tiled the floor in the unit. We are now advised that since the board had knowledge of this act for several years the board cannot now force the removal of the tile. Is this correct?
A. This question really needs to be answered by a lawyer. I believe there are two reasons that the rule cannot be enforced.
The first is that the buyers believed that they had proper authority to tile the floors. The second is that too much time has passed to now enforce the rule and force the owner to remove the tile.
This is a textbook case of poor enforcement of the rules. A good lawyer defending any enforcement lawsuit would probably find many other reasons to defend the court case for the owner. Learn from your mistakes and move on. It takes concerted effort to properly enforce the rules. I suggest all the directors read the association's documents before any more decisions are made.
Q. I want a subject placed on the ballot at the board of directors' annual meeting of the homeowners association. What is the procedure? Can a resident make this request?
A. You must put your request in writing and submit it to the board. I would suggest you recruit the support of a board member to sponsor the suggestion. The board must process the request in a board meeting for approval to be added to the agenda and placed on the ballot. It is not one of those last-minute things. Keep in mind that if you are planning to request a change in your covenants, documents, or other legal documents, a lawyer should review the proposed change and submit a final draft of the amendments. Sufficient time is required to communicate and notice the proposed change.
Some suggestions that you feel the members should vote on may not be proper. As an example, you cannot limit the amount of the maintenance fees or a special assessment, as that is a duty of the board. Also, personal objectives and purposes should not be voted on. Such issues as allowing a commercial venture in which you are involved to use the common areas would be considered improper.
The board should first review the proposed change and it may be a request that can be approved by the board at a board meeting rather than having the members vote on the issue.
Q. A unit owner requested a copy of an owners' list, which included addresses. Residents have received a business solicitation letter apparently by use of this list. The return address was that of the unit owner who requested the list. The documents are clear regarding the unit owner's rights to receive the list however; what is the association's duty to provide the information to an owner to solicit business?
A. The association should not be held responsible for the commercial actions of an owner. Certain steps can be taken in that the board can establish reasonable guidelines for requesting copies of official records. One of those requirements is that the requesting party sign that they will not use the list for commercial activity. The problem is that the address list is easily obtained from county records or over the Internet.
Q. Do condo associations have any responsibility or liability when they know a resident is incapable of living alone? Is there an agency that can be contacted? A. The association may not have a legal responsibility but sometimes you have a moral commitment to take action or help. Several situations must be ascertained: Is the person disruptive or a danger to other residents or common property, or is the person just unable to take care of himself or herself?
Maybe the person just needs a little help -- like being driven to stores and shopping. The circumstances would dictate the answer. I would suggest the first step is to try to make contact with a relative, by letter if possible. There are laws to help but you must have your lawyer's advice and direction as to how to implement the correct procedures.
Contact you local authorities. Often, your city or county has support agencies that can help. Be careful not take actions that violate the owner's rights.
Q. Can you give me some advice regarding a gated community board that has only one goal, to lower the dues? The community is not maintained, common areas are bad, flowers are not planted, and shrubs and trees are dying. The board does not enforce the rules because it is afraid of legal fees. One answer is to get a new board. Do you have any other suggestions? A. You must try to communicate to the board members that they have a fiduciary duty to the members. That duty is a statutory requirement that the directors maintain the common areas and the association. When they fail to maintain the common areas, they are in violation and sit in jeopardy of being sued or having the state take disciplinary actions.
The primary evidence is the lowering of property values. You, as an owner, have a right to expect that your property values are maintained or increased. There is a direct correlation between property values and association maintenance. There is no such thing as a cheap maintenance fee. You get what you pay for or what you do not pay for in the higher or lower fees.

Chicago Needs Answers To The Questions
by Paul on 01/27/12 at 12:37 PM ET
Comments (1)
from Dan McNeil of the Chicago Tribune,
If we know anything about the NHL, it's that January is far too early to fear the falling sky. That said, it's undeniable the Hawks have been only as good as their current sixth position in the Western Conference indicates. There are more questions than answers.
The Hawks are only three points behind the conference-leading Red Wings, but at no point this season have the Hawks put together a 10-game stretch that made anybody think Stan Bowman's roster is championship quality.
Here's what I know:
• It's over if Jonathan Toews is injured worse than the team is saying. The Hawks without Toews are every bit as tough to watch as the Bulls without Derrick Rose or the Bears without Jay Cutler.
If Toews' bad wrist doesn't respond or he reinjures it, the Hawks might as well not even qualify for the postseason.
• You can't win a Stanley Cup with only 3 1/2 defensemen. That's all Joel Quenneville has right now….
Filed in: NHL Teams, Chicago Blackhawks, | KK Hockey | Permalink
It'll be interesting to see how Chicago's offense will carry on with out Sharp and Toews, but as of now it's really strong (ranked 3rd in the league in goals per game and the powerplay is ranked 8th). I think goaltending may be a bigger issue than defense…they're ranked 7th in allowing shots per game but they're goals against is ranked 19th. Nick Leddy and Sean O'Donnell are the only defensemen with a negative +/- and they're at -6 and -3, repsectively. The PK also needs a lot of work, ranked 28th in the league.

Napoleon's secret coded letter for sale
Updated On: Dec 01 2012 12:01:58 PM CST
A rare coded letter in which Napoleon Bonaparte vows to blow up the Kremlin is going on the auction block.
"At three o'clock in the morning, on the 22nd I am going to blow up the Kremlin," the famed French general wrote in a letter dated Oct. 20, 1812 and signed "Nap" in his hand.
Written the day after his retreat from Moscow, the letter shows Napoleon at one of his weakest moments before the beginning of a disastrous westward retreat by French forces, according to The Associated Press.
The document, written in Napoleon's infamous numeric code, goes on sale Sunday at France's Fontainebleau Auction House, the AP reported.
It is currently part of a private collection.
"Letters written by Napoleon from Russia are rare," Alain Nicolas, an expert for the auctioneer Ocenat, told AFP. "Many were lost, probably intercepted by the Russians."
