The Canadian Press - ONLINE EDITION
Reports contradict PM's view on aboriginal women victims
OTTAWA - Dozens of federal, provincial and community studies compiled by the Conservative government appear to contradict the prime minister's contention that the problem of missing and murdered aboriginal women isn't a "sociological phenomenon."
But some in the aboriginal community don't quibble with the government's other main response to calls for a public inquiry — that there has been more than enough research.
Officials point to a non-exhaustive list of 40 studies conducted on the issue between 1996 and 2013.
A closer look at the research shows that in nearly every case, the authors or participants highlight the "root" or systemic causes of violence against aboriginal women and their marginalization in society.
The legacy of colonization, including the displacement and dispossession linked with residential schools and other policies, are cited frequently in the reports. The impact of poverty and lack of housing are also cited as root causes of violence against aboriginal women.
"There are root causes of violence in the aboriginal communities that include things like poverty and racism and this is why it's incredibly important for us to work with organizations, aboriginal organizations, across the country...," Rona Ambrose, then status of women minister, told a parliamentary hearing in 2011.
Harper has offered a different perspective.
"I think we should not view this as sociological phenomenon. We should view it as crime," he said last month.
"It is crime, against innocent people, and it needs to be addressed as such."
The government's related position has been that there have been enough studies — the focus needs to be on action.
"What we don't need, is yet another study on top of the some 40 studies and reports that have already been done, that made specific recommendations which are being pursued, to delay ongoing action," Justice Minister Peter MacKay said last week.
Some inside the aboriginal community agree there have been enough studies, but there are varying opinions on whether an inquiry would just go over the same ground.
One 2005 report prepared by three B.C. community groups, entitled "Researched to Death," pointed to the "striking similarities" in research and recommendations done up to that point.
"The only outstanding element is action," the authors wrote.
Dawn Harvard, president of the Ontario Native Women's Association, agrees there has already been substantial research on the sociological causes of violence against aboriginal women.
But she says a national inquiry wouldn't be about the sociology, but rather about determining what specific policies and initiatives are needed to address specific community problems — in-depth research that smaller groups don't have the resources to do.
"The sociological studies have identified that there is a problem, so your inquiry is going to get into the nitty-gritty nuts and bolts of what is this problem all about," said Harvard.
"And one would hope that therefore we would have a much more effective response when we come out of it."
For Michelle Audette, president of the Native Women's Association of Canada, an inquiry would be an accountability exercise in a non-partisan forum — akin to the Gomery commission on the sponsorship scandal or the current Charbonneau commission into corruption in Quebec's construction industry.
"Do we do another research (report)? No," said Audette. "But this inquiry will bring us together and say, why didn't we implement those (prior) recommendations? Why are we not putting in place legislation that will force our police forces to automatically exchange data?"
Kate Rexe, who worked on the Sisters in Spirit research and policy initiative on missing and murdered aboriginal women, takes a different perspective.
She says that while an inquiry would provide public recognition for the victims' families, it won't necessarily reach the required level of detail.
"If we're looking at a 30-year time span over a number of different police services, in various communities that have had varying levels of response of police to the families and the communities, you're not going to get the answers that you would hopefully need," said Rexe.
"I don't necessarily agree with just having more research for the sake of research."

Gennari, Aronson form new law firm aimed at growth companies
Send this to a friend
- Galen Moore
- Web Editor- Boston Business Journal
- Email | Twitter | Google+
Boston lawyers Lawrence Gennari and Neil Aronson have left their respective law firms to launch their own firm, based in Needham, with a focus on growth companies from startups to the middle market.
Gennari, a former partner at Choate Hall & Stewart LLP where he focused on early-stage companies and angel investment, said he and Aronson, former chair of the national business and finance practice at Mintz, Levin, Cohn, Ferris, Glovsky and Popeo, PC, will each bring about two dozen clients from their respective firms. The new firm is called Gennari Aronson LLP.
The two are joined by Choate attorney Laura Glynn, Choate associate Matthew Graber, and likely a third attorney, whom Gennari did not name, but said the firm "hopes to hear from today."
"We really want to try something different and more entrepreneurial with a somewhat lower cost structure," Gennari said. "It's really kind of an outsourced general counsel model."
The new firm plans to form a startup advisory board that will function as a built-in executive-in-residence program, Gennari said.
The small firm's lower cost structure will enable it to be flexible with early-stage startups who may not be able to afford higher rates, Gennari said. "Clients often need us most when they can't afford to pay us."
However, the firm will seek to limit the amount of sweat equity it takes in very early-stage startups, he said.
In a written statement, Mintz Levin corporate and emerging growth practice chair Peter Demuth wished Aronson well, saying Mintz Levin's practice remains active, having closed at least 15 public offerings in 2009 and "dozens" of venture capital investments and acquisitions.
A Choate spokeswoman did not return calls seeking comment.

Kukla's Korner Hockey
Hinote Closing In On Suspension
by Paul on 05/06/06 at 09:50 PM ET
Comments (0)
Colorado Avalanche forward Dan Hinote is halfway to a suspension. Frustrated during a 5-0 playoff loss Friday night, Hinote flattened Anaheim Mighty Ducks forward Ryan Getzlaf as the game ended. The hit drew a 5-minute major charging penalty, a 10-minute misconduct and a game-misconduct. NHL rules call for an automatic one-game suspension for any player who receives two game-misconduct penalties during the playoffs. Hinote also will be fined $200 for the game misconduct, and $100 for the 10-minute misconduct.continued

Did you alter the neck tie, or is it really that wide? I want a nice wide bow.

Nope, it's really that wide:)
But you can't really see it on the photos because I took it doubled to tie the bow.

Will champagne and bikini-clad waitresses lure high end investors back to U.S. housing market?
A UCLA professor of real estate says this latest trend will not change the fundamentals of the U.S. housing marketplace
|Report an Error
Share via Email
As the housing market in the United States continues to crash and burn thanks to bad loans, real estate agents in Los Angeles, California — one of the epicentres of the housing crash — are trying just about everything to attract investors to purchase luxury homes.
Agents with listings for high end homes are using everything from promises of Botox treatments to free drinks and bikini-clad waitresses to get investors to open houses, according to Paul Habibi, a professor of real estate at UCLA's School of Management.
"Once we got into this housing mess we've had a lot of brokers and agents decide to revert to tactics they wouldn't have to use in a healthy market," said Habibi in an interview with the Star.
According to the Los Angeles Times an agent who was listing an $8 million home hired a stilt walker, shirtless male jugglers and a contortionist who floated in the pool, encased in a clear plastic bubble, last month to help draw in investors.
Another agent employed young women to give guests Thai foot massages and set up a raffle for Botox treatments. Others have used pizza and pony rides.
And another agent, according to the Times story, travelled to Spain to try to find investors, wooing them with champagne at a trendy beach club in Ibiza that he rented for $14,000 (U.S.) as he tried to encourage them to buy luxury homes.
But Habibi doesn't believe that these techniques really work. "Cirque du Soleil dancers, cocktail receptions, hostesses, bikini clad models, all of these random things are used to garner interest and attention," said Habibi.
But the truth is "regardless of the marketing techniques, you can't change the fundamentals of the housing market which is struggling," he said. And those simply aren't that good.
Unlike the Canadian housing market, the U.S. housing market crashed a couple of years ago thanks to a wave of bad loans and subprime loans to people who couldn't really afford to own a home.
"We don't have responsible policies on the lending side in the U.S. which is why we had the problem in the first place," Habibi said.
Further complicating the housing scene in the U.S. is the fact that the cost of renting a house today is less than owning a home in many of markets such as Los Angeles or New York, Habibi said.
"In order for a potential homeowner to do well by making a decision to buy there has to be an expectation of near term appreciation. And most expectations of single family home appreciation are virtually zero for the next two years."
What's more even if an investor is wooed by the marketing campaign and decides to take the plunge with a high end home, Habibi believes that during the escrow period a buyer will have second thoughts and walk away from the deal.
Right now there are two big issues driving the housing market, Habibi said. Prospective buyers fall into two categories — those who want to buy a house but cannot qualify for a loan and those who can qualify but are waiting and trying to find that "sweet spot" between low interest rates and rock bottom prices.
"After the reality has set in beyond a marketing campaign, the fundamentals of home purchasing right now are not good enough for many in the U.S., especially in Los Angeles, San Francisco, New York or Boston. It costs less to rent. So a lot of people are just continuing to rent before purchasing a home."
What's more the glitz, glamour and fancy marketing techniques also can't change the fact that there just isn't a lot of demand for elite homes at the moment. "What fuels the purchase of these elite homes is the move-up buyer," he explained. "If you don't have equity growth and you don't have a move up buyer market, then the high end housing market tends to stall."

The areas of overlap between Google and Apple have just grown a little bit larger. Earlier today, the search giant announced Google TV, a platform intended to bring "everything you love about the web to your television." Eat your heart out, Apple TV!
As Google explains in the following introductory clip, video may be easier to find and consume on the web, but it's generally more enjoyable to watch on a big-screen TV in your living room. Google aims to bridge the two by letting users find channels, recorded shows, websites, and YouTube clips via a simple search field on their TV screen:
Google says it's already partnered up with Sony and Logitech to build Google TV inside of "televisions, Blu-ray players and companion boxes." You can expect Google TV-enabled products to start hitting Best Buy stores some time this fall.
As we understand it, Google TV is built on top of the Android mobile platform and Chrome web browser. Google intends to release a development kit and programming interfaces for Google TV so that developers "can build even richer applications and distribute them through Android Market."

Corner Kicks: Puma Going Bold With Mismatched Cleats During World Cup
Published June 13, 2014
BRAZIL-THEMED BURGERS: THE STREET's Chris Katje noted Arcos Dorados, which is the world's "largest franchisee of McDonald's," has "launched a new World Cup promotion featuring sandwiches themed after a participating team for every day of the week." Only seven of the 32 participating teams "are featured in the promotion, but they are among the world's most beloved and followed teams." At more than 800 McDonald's locations in Brazil, fans "can get a McArgentina, McUSA, McBrazil, McSpain, McGermany, McFrance or McItaly." Only one sandwich "is available each day, with Argentina (Friday), USA (Saturday) and Brazil (Sunday) featured on the weekends." The promotion runs through June 25 (THESTREET.com, 6/12).
SURFACE INFUSION: VARIETY's Brian Steinberg noted Microsoft "has plans to promote its Surface tablet device to World Cup aficionados," as it "has struck a deal with news-and-culture outlet Fusion that will place the Surface on set and in the hands of the hosts during 'The Soccer Gods.'" Hosts Simon Carr and Nando Vila during the hour-long program "will use the Microsoft Surface to showcase the sights and parties happening across Brazil during the massive soccer tournament" (VARIETY.com, 6/12).

Komisarek Doubtful For Team USA
by Paul on 01/31/10 at 11:10 AM ET
Comments (0)
from Mark Zwolinski of the Toronto Star,
Mike Komisarek received some unfortunate news Saturday night that will almost certainly end his hopes of competing in the Vancouver Olympics with Team USA.
The big Leafs defenceman's injured shoulder will keep him sidelined up to another seven days – a span that will push him past a deadline to prepare for the Games….
Burke, meanwhile, has several choices to replace Komisarek.
Candidates include Pittsburgh's Alex Goligoski, Anaheim's Ryan Whitney, Atlanta's teenage blueliner Zach Bogosian and Carolina's Tim Gleason.

Editorial: Shine a light on Seattle police
More transparency in discipline of Seattle police, as proposed by civilian investigator Pierce Murphy, could be a disinfectant to public mistrust of the force.
Seattle Times Editorial
THE new civilian ombudsman of Seattle police has a refreshingly simple idea to increase public trust in the beleaguered force: air the dirty laundry.
As director of the city's Office of Professional Accountability, Pierce Murphy is the independent investigator of citizen complaints against city police officers.
Currently, his office publishes a quarterly summary of disciplinary investigations, with terse summaries and no officers named, even when misconduct is substantiated.
Those names can be disclosed upon a Public Records Act request, but that process can be arcane for citizens, and is time consuming, for requesters and the city.
Murphy, in an interview with The Seattle Times editorial board, suggested a more simple process. He proposes to publish on the OPA website more thorough summaries of investigative reports as soon as they're done, including the names of officers with sustained misconduct findings.
"If the public has the right to see it, why wait for the public to ask us?" said Murphy.
There is no legal prohibition to the idea. And there are compelling reasons to do it.
Public trust is the most valuable tool a police officer carries, and assuring citizens that police power is wielded appropriately is the cornerstone of that trust.
Seattle police clearly suffer from a trust deficit. For evidence, look no further than the list of 35 leading community groups that in 2010 asked the U.S. Department of Justice to open an investigation.
A more transparent disciplinary process is likely to anger some officers, who may feel it would erode their authority. Instead, they should see Murphy's idea as a disinfectant against corrosive public mistrust.
Whether Seattle police see it or not, Murphy is proposing to do them, and the city, a favor.

Winnipeg, MB
-15°c Overcast
Winnipeg Free Press - ONLINE EDITION
Posted: 06/18/2014 3:21 PM | Comments: 0
NEW YORK — Put this in the "can they even do that?" files. Jesse Lee Herald of Edinburg, Virginia, received an unusual sentence for "child endangerment, hit and run driving and driving on a suspended license" — 20 months in prison, five years of probation, and a vasectomy.
As part of his plea deal, Herald had to agree to get snipped when he got out of jail. He's not allowed to undergo a reversal until his probation is up.
Herald has a fairly long rap sheet already, including a previous hit and run conviction, but it wasn't just his life of petty crime that inspired the mandatory vasectomy, according to what assistant commonwealth's attorney Ilona L. White told NV Daily:
White said her motivation in offering the vasectomy option to Herald stemmed from concerns raised at sentencing hearings in earlier cases about how many children have been traced to him from different women.
"It was primarily due to the fact he had seven or eight children, all by different women, and we felt it might be in the commonwealth's interest for that to be part of the plea agreement," White said of the vasectomy provision.
Herald seems like bad news, but as Isha Aran at Jezebel writes, "This is eugenics, right? Temporary negative eugenics?" Probably not even temporary, as vasectomy reversals are expensive, can be quite painful, and often don't work anyway. This is particularly troubling in light of Virginia's notorious history when it comes to eugenics. Virginia was the source of the infamous 1927 eugenics case Buck v. Bell, in which Justice Oliver Wendall Holmes justified the Supreme Court upholding the forced sterilization of a woman in a mental institution by arguing, "Three generations of imbeciles are enough." (After the Nazi era, American enthusiasm for eugenics declined rapidly, though clearly has never gone away completely.)
The Herald deal is particularly disappointing since things have just started to get better in Virginia when it comes to the issue of reproductive coercion. Gov. Terry McAuliffe has aggressively moved to get the state health board to repeal medically unnecessary regulations on abortion clinics that were passed under his Republican predecessor. While it may not seem that forcing women to have children has all that much in common with trying to force a man not to have children, both are rooted in this unsavory ideal that the basic right to bodily autonomy should be abandoned in the face of other people's disapproval of your sexual choices.
In both cases, class plays a major role, as wealthier women have the ability to leave the state to get abortions and no one would dare suggest that a wealthy man should have his testicles snipped because he has children by multiple women. While many likely agree that it would be for the best if Jesse Lee Herald stopped impregnating various women, it's deeply disturbing to see the state think they have a right to make that decision for him.

She fell in love with ballet after starting dancing at the age of three. Now Nancy Osbaldeston has been named as one of the country's greatest young performers.
The 23-year-old from Putney is one of six finalists in the English National Ballet's Emerging Dancer competition, a scheme designed to nurture the "phenomenal talent" of its young stars.
Nancy first danced at a nursery and quickly became "addicted", earning a place at the ballet company's school and three years later a job as a dance professional.
She was named as one of Time Out's five dancers to watch in 2013 and described as glowing "a shade brighter than everyone else on the stage".
One reviewer said of her performance as the Songbird Fairy in Sleeping Beauty in December: "Osbaldeston is petite but her dancing is expansive, and her steps gilded with a fine 19th-century grandeur."
She said today: "I can't think of an exact moment I fell in love with ballet. I have always loved it and when I was not in class I was dancing round the house. I just became addicted from the get-go.
"Now I am at the English National Ballet, I get moments when I think I have done really well and have got a pretty good deal. I just want to stay on stage for as long as I can because it is so much fun."
Fellow finalist Laurretta Summerscales, from Woking, first started tap, modern and ballet dancing aged two at a school run by her mother Tracey.
Laurretta, 22, burst onto the national scene in 2010, drawing comparisons to Darcey Bussell, after being chosen at short notice to play Myrtha, Queen of The Wilis, in Giselle at the London Coliseum.
She said: "It all started with me watching classes and unbeknown to my mum I sat through a whole set of exams just watching, not saying a word. The examiner knew I was there but just left me as I was so enthralled."
Laurretta and Nancy will compete with Alison McWhinney, Guilherme Menezes, Ken Saruhashi and Nathan Young in next month's final of the contest, now in its fourth year.
The finalists are chosen by the ballet's principal dancers and artistic, music and administrative staff.
Judges include Darcey Bussell and Tamara Rojo, the former principal dancer at the Royal Ballet who is now artistic director at E nglish National Ballet. All finalists will perform a duet and a solo.
Tickets for the finals on March 4 taking place at the Southbank Centre's Queen Elizabeth Hall are available online.

2014 Fantasy Football Buy or Sell: Jordan Reed
Jordan Reed is an interesting guy when it comes to fantasy. He is currently ranked in the top 10 in most formats, while also being outside of the elite pass-catching tight ends group.
Last season, the Washington Redskins were without a healthy 2012 Offensive Rookie of the Year in Robert Griffin III. He was hardly the player he was in 2012; his passer rating dropped 20 points and his interceptions jumped from five to 12. This could be contributed to him not being 100 percent healthy following a torn ACL. Reed's productivity for 2014 relies directly on if RG3 can return to his 2012 self.
Reed showed signs of being a top TE in games against the Chicago Bears (134 yards and one TD) and the Denver Broncos (90 yards on 14 targets). His season was cut short as he hit the Injured Reserve due to a concussion after Week 9.
In nine weeks of on-field action, Reed tallied 499 yards and three touchdowns. He showed signs of having the type of athleticism that can create mismatches in the defense. In a new offense under Jay Gruden, and also being surrounded by some new weapons, Reed will make the step and become a top fantasy TE.
On most websites, Reed is being drafted as the ninth TE and usually around the eighth round. That is an absolute steal for the numbers that I think he can get this year. I anticipate him to outscore Dennis Pitta, Greg Olsen and Jason Witten.
While his stock isn't as high as it can be, I advise to reach for him and get him as your starting tight end, if you miss out on the elite TEs. Go ahead and even trade for him if you missed him in the draft. His production is something you don't want to miss out on.

First impression on unpacking the Q702 test unit was the solid feel and clean, minimalist styling.
For work use, Microsoft Word and Excel programs pre-installed on the device are adequate for preparing short documents.
The Fujitsu LifeBook UH574 allowed for great mobility without being obnoxiously heavy or clunky. Its twelve hours of battery life did not disappoint.
The screen was particularly good. It is bright and visible from most angles, however heat is an issue, particularly around the Windows button on the front, and on the back where the battery housing is located.
My first impression after unboxing the Q702 is that it is a nice looking unit. Styling is somewhat minimalist but very effective. The tablet part, once detached, has a nice weight, and no buttons or switches are located in awkward or intrusive positions.

Want to hear Jodi Picoult howl?
Blockbuster fiction writer Jodi Picoult's books always have a dilemma, she tells Gillian.
- Print page
- Email this
- Permalink
Jodi Picoult has written 19 books, which have been so successful they often end up on the best-seller lists before they've actually been released.
Her speciality? The impossible dilemma. The hideous 'what ifs?'. What if you had a terminally ill child, would you have another one solely to save the first one?
What if your child was responsible for a high-school massacre? She makes you think outside those black-and-white judgements, outside the norms of 'right and wrong'.
In her new book, Lone Wolf, the dilemma is this:
A man is in a coma - what if his family can't decide whether to hold out and hope he recovers, or let him die?
Jodi Picoult chats with Gillian about her new book, how she gets her ideas and how she writes.

<applet width=100 height=150 MAYSCRIPT
Same error all browsers, the code is correct and the jar is downloadable if you address it directly. Now i am on Java7u45 ... has something broken between then and now or am I doing something horrible wrong.. (this code USED to work with wicket.)

NBC Sports will give five Kauai golf courses national exposure
Send this to a friend
- Staff Pacific Business News
Five Kauai golf courses will get national television coverage Saturday when NBC Sports airs a special program called "Global Golf Adventure – Kauai" before the network's live third-round coverage of the PGA Tour's World Challenge.
The program will feature The Prince Court at Princeville Golf Club, Puakea Golf Course, Makai Golf Club at Princeville, Poipu Bay Golf Course and Kauai Lagoons Golf Club. It will hosted by NBC Sports and Golf Channel analyst Mark Rolfing, who is also a Maui resident.
Rolfing travels to different golf and travel destinations for each episode of the show, and chose Kauai for the Dec. 1 episode.
"2012 has been an incredible year in golf, so I decided we should cap off the year in style on 'Global Golf Adventure' with a trip to one of the most spectacular spots on earth, the island of Kauai," Rolfing said in a statement. "There is no place like Kauai. It is a land of breathtaking contrasts, big and bold, yet at the same time, small and charming."

Robshaw on Lions standby
ESPN Staff
May 22, 2013
It has been a difficult end-of-season for Chris Robshaw © PA Photos
Harlequins skipper Chris Robshaw will not let his fitness levels slide in the off-season in case the British & Irish Lions need his services in Australia.
Robshaw, who captained England during the Six Nations, was one of the high profile omissions from the 37-man Lions squad for the forthcoming series against the Wallabies. And England boss Stuart Lancaster also opted to leave him out of their squad for the trip to South America with Tom Wood handed the captaincy.
But despite these setbacks, with the England omission down to Lancaster's wish for Robshaw to recuperate after a gruelling international and domestic season, the flanker will be keeping a close eye on the Lions in Australia.
It is inevitable that there will be injuries Down Under and Robshaw hopes to be the first cab off the rank if there is a place available in the Lions' back-row, after suffering the original heartbreak of not making the cut.
"Everyone has sulk, mops about and things like that but you then move on," Robshaw told Sky Sports News. "It is one of those things where you will do a little bit of training in the morning then you can get to relax later in the day and switch off.
"We've got six weeks off for the summer now, so it is about enjoying yourself but still making sure you are fit in case you get that call. I think there are a lot of players on standby, I don't think they have gone out there and said exactly who is. It will depend on who gets injured and various scenarios as to who gets called up."

Product Details
Would you like to update product info or give feedback on images?.
She's not exaggerating. It's 1971, and 16-year-old Roberta Rohbeson lives in what looks very much like hell. It's five years after the Lucky Chief Motel Massacre, after which Roberta was found wandering the desert, covered with blood and clutching her dog, Cookie, who suffers from "incurable skin problems." Even now, Roberta still won't talk about what happened. She lives with her mother and sister on the aforementioned cruddy street, hides in the weeds during her lunch period, and eventually befriends some suicidal misfits like herself. The novel intercuts their chemically enhanced adventures with scenes from a gore-filled road trip taken five years before. Hint No. 1: Roberta's father used to run a slaughterhouse. Hint No. 2: The maps inside the front covers have keys that read "Dead People We Left Behind" and "Places There Were Blood."
Barry came to fame as a cartoonist, and though the humor in her strip Ernie Pook's Comeek is dark, nothing in it could prepare her fans for the sheer horror of Cruddy. The novel is funny, sort of, as long as you think naming a knife Little Debbie is funny, or lines like "A man who has been dead for a week in a hot trailer looks more like a man than you would first expect." What's more, it's compulsively, almost harrowingly, readable, written with the kind of velocity that makes you keep turning pages even when you don't want to. Despite the hallucinogenic quality of the violence around her, Roberta is never anything less than real, and her story will strike chords in anyone whose childhood was marked by ugliness and fear. Cruddy may be a bad acid trip, but if you can stomach the ride, it's a very good book. --Mary Park --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.
I don't get it. How did this book I've never heard of a week ago become my favorite book? It's one of those books that, as a writer, makes you stop everything you're doing and take... Read morePublished 2 months ago by S. Conley
