Opening the doors to rights for live-in caregivers: A critical discussion of Canada's live-in caregiver program
Panel discussion: Abigail Bakan (Professor of Political Studies and Women's Studies, Queen's University); Cecilia Diocson (Executive Director, National Alliance of Philippine Women in Canada); Delia de Veyra (Vice Chairperson, PINAY, former live-in caregiver program participant); and Walter Chi-Yan Tom (lawyer practicing immigration law in Montreal). Moderator: Jill Hanley (Assistant Professor, School of Social Work, McGill, co-founder of the Immigrant Workers' Centre). The Live-In Caregiver program brings thousands of domestic workers to Canada on temporary work visas each year to fill a labour market gap to provide care for children and elderly persons. Mostly women from developing countries, these caregivers are required to live in the homes of their employers, and their immigration status remains precariously tied to their jobs. The temporary status of live-in caregivers in Canada creates a context that leaves caregivers vulnerable to abuse and to denial of workers' rights. Is the live-in caregiver progr

Things to Avoid (James 4:1-17)
in Christianity
What is the source of quarrels and conflicts among you?
Is not the source your pleasures that wage war in your members?
You lust and do not have; so you commit murder. You are envious and cannot obtain; so you fight and quarrel. You do not have because you do not ask. You ask and do not receive, because you ask with wrong motives, so that you may spend it on your pleasures.
You adulteresses, do you not know that friendship with the world is hostility toward God? Therefore whoever wishes to be a friend of the world makes himself an enemy of God. Or do you think that the Scripture speaks to no purpose: "He jealously desires the Spirit which He has made to dwell in us"?
But He gives a greater grace. Therefore it says, "God is opposed to the proud, but gives grace to the humble." Submit therefore to God. Resist the devil and he will flee from you. Draw near to God and He will draw near to you. Cleanse your hands, you sinners; and purify your hearts, you double-minded.
Be miserable and mourn and weep; let your laughter be turned into mourning and your joy to gloom. Humble yourselves in the presence of the Lord, and He will exalt you.
Do not speak against one another, brethren. He who speaks against a brother or judges his brother, speaks against the law and judges the law; but if you judge the law, you are not a doer of the law but a judge of it. There is only one Lawgiver and Judge, the One who is able to save and to destroy; but who are you who judge your neighbor?
Come now, you who say, "Today or tomorrow we will go to such and such a city, and spend a year there and engage in business and make a profit." Yet you do not know what your life will be like tomorrow. You are just a vapor that appears for a little while and then vanishes away.
Instead, you ought to say, "If the Lord wills, we will live and also do this or that." But...

For this world was not created to be territorially ruled after the diverse MISadministrative opinions of MANY kings, but was made to true to the consummate will of only ONE divinely appointed ONE! (Mat.28:18-20) Yet since the FALL, men have been blinded by what they see! After this folly the Messiah will not be beguiled! (Isaiah 11:1-12) Belief otherwise was NEVER the GOSPEL!

This WORLD DIVIDED is the result of a FALL after the MISrule of MANY that never should have been! Only ONE LAW is viable to redeem this world beyond ALL allegiances to SINS! What YAH mandated from the BEGINNING should be the EXPECTATION of ALL unto REPENTANCE acceptable in returning unto the PURE PERFECT SOVEREIGN WILL of ONE! Blinded by the result of THE FALL, most have been damningly SLOTHFUL, never discerning that the GOSPEL OBLIGATES ALL to DILIGENTLY SEEK the REMEMBRANCE of ALL TRUTH that ALL EXCEED the varied rulerships of MEN!

Yet the varied religiosities of this world having ignored the ONLY hope for PEACE have all the works of war-mongers. WAR in defense of any manner of partiality ie. injustice is damning EVIL! Since there is but ONE HOPE for SALVATION, what then is EVERY other way? Messiah shall silence the misconceits of the rulers that at last shall the warfare oppressing His people, even this world, must come to an end!

The Coalgate cancellation verdict is in.
India's Supreme Court has decided to go ahead and annul all of the 218 coal licences handed out to businesses over the last two decades, bar a few belonging to state-backed companies.
Sucks for the private players on the receiving end (Jindal is off some 11 per cent at pixel) but apparently a win for Coal India:

What is it?
The Seat Leon TDI FR, which is the first Leon model to get a common-rail diesel engine. The new 168bhp turbodiesel joins the range above the venerable 138bhp 2.0 pumpe-duse turbodiesel.
The VW group's six-speed twin-clutch DSG gearbox is available on the new range-topping diesel, but it's the standard six-speed manual version of the Seat Leon TDI FR that we test here. Like the rest of the facelifted Leon range, The Leon TDI FR also gets a bigger rear window, ESP as standard, softer chassis settings and a new dash.
What's it like?
The Seat Leon TDI FR is the vehicular equivalent of the bacon sandwich - practical, affordable and rarely disappointing. We expect a lot from a modern hot hatch, and the new Leon TDI FR is one of the most flexible real-world options around.
The new common-rail engine reduces the noise and vibration by 15 per cent over the old pumpe duse TDI FR, a point that's evident as soon as you turn the key in the ignition
The Leon TDI FR is happy to rev to the redline, though the torquey power delivery means there's not much point in pushing it past 3800rpm. The new common-rail unit is refined and punchy on more demanding roads, and is equally at home with motorway cruising or town driving.
The newly tweaked chassis setting also makes the Leon TDI FR a more supple drive than the pre-facelift model and, though the heavier diesel engine means that the TDI doesn't quite have the quick-witted responses of the Leon TSI FR, it's still an absorbing drive on the twisty stuff, living up to its hot hatch billing.
The updated cabin successfully modernises the Leon's interior, with a new interface bringing USB iPod connectivity to the range and a better laid-out dash making it easier to use. There's even some new seat colour options that break up the otherwise bland, but functional, cabin.
Should I buy one?
If you want a car that has the kind of pace and driveability that makes you actively choose to take the long way home while still being spacious, frugal and comfortable enough for the family holiday, then yes. The similarly priced TSI FR is the better driver's choice, but the Seat Leon TDI FR isn't far behind and makes an even better case for itself on the daily commute.

Re: Seat Leon 2.0 TDI FR
Looks like a good alternateive to the rather pricey VW Golf GTD.
Are you sure the 140 bhp diesel is the old PD variant?
I thought that was purely the 1.9 TDi and all 2009 VW group 2.0 TDi engines are now CR engines, regardless of whether they are 140 or 170 bhp?
Re: Seat Leon 2.0 TDI FR
The old 1.9 TDi PD only got as high as the 130BHP flavour, whereas the 2.0TDi PD was available in either 140 or 170BHP, the latter being in the previous Leon FR.
My MK1 Leon TDi SE has the 1.9TDi 130PD engine and it's always punchy yet refined enough at cruising speeds on the motorway. After 5 1/2 years of ownership and 110K miles I may just be tempted by the new FR - if the company move me up a grade which qualifies for car allowance! :o)
Re: Seat Leon 2.0 TDI FR
Are you sure the 140 bhp diesel is the old PD variant?
Yes it is. Only VW and Audi cars have made a complete switch to the 2.0 TDi common-rail.
Check out the new Skoda Superb. The 140bhp is still the PD model. The 170bhp is CR. Its all to do with the great VAG heirachy. The 'lesser' brands dont get the new techonology for a while after the 'premium' brands.
This also explains why the new Seat Ibiza has such old gutless engines - The VW Polo and Audi A1 must get the lastest TSi engines first.
Re: Seat Leon 2.0 TDI FR
Seems like a great car for Fabia Vrs fans who are seeking to upgrade- bigger kids, bigger self, bigger dog- please pick. The Leon seems very similar, according to the review- practical, rapid, relatively discreet (though still with some subtle sporty looks), and with "livable" suspension settings- sporty enough handling without bone-crunching ride- all similar to the Fabia Vrs.
As Skoda are reportedly selling their new Fabia Vrs (when they eventually get around to launching it) at a significantly higher list price, with standard spec rumoured to be stingey (however plenty of costly options available- yes!!) and also apparently refusing to offer diesel power (Golf GT sourced 1.4 turbo petrol instead, despite the surprising popularity of the original diesel-only Fabia Vrs), the Leon FR diesel looks very tempting. I've read on other sites various Fabia Vrs fans speaking favourably about the Leon FR diesel even prior to the mid-life modifications (that's the one with the 1980s-style Brittish Rail bone-shaker type ride).
Also remember that the current second generation Fabia is based on the original Fabia chassis, but with increased height (up 47mm in standard models) on the bodywork- both factors probably not causing Renaultsport's handling department to lose any sleep!! Personally, I would love to see the new Faiba Vrs with similar suspension settings (everyday compromise setting- firmish but not too firm) to the last one (shouldn't be too hard as its on the same chassis...) and the new CR 170 bhp 2.0 diesel- Octavia Vrs-smashing performance!! That would make a refined, high-performance, GT-style pocket-rocket!! Skoda could even launch a Fabia Vrs estate?!! No, my medication has not run out- the standard Octavia is about as exciting as a soggy bag of chips but in Vrs guise has still sold well as both hatch and estate.
PS - Can't believe suggesting a Fabia Vrs estate- Doctor, where are the pills!!
Re: Seat Leon 2.0 TDI FR
150 actually. That was in the mark IV Golf GT-TDI PD 150.
Re: Seat Leon 2.0 TDI FR
Yep, forgot the MK1 FR had the PD150 as well. I still think the 1.9 130PD is a superb engine - ok, a little coarse when cold but huge amounts of torque for those steep uphill overtaking blasts that seem to leave others behind. :o)

Re: Seat Leon 2.0 TDI FR
Seems like a useful series of updates. Also looks as if this one will avoid the £1.5k price hike that VW is applying to the equivalent Golf.
Well done Seat!
Re: Seat Leon 2.0 TDI FR
Seems like a great car for Fabia Vrs fans who are seeking to upgrade- bigger kids, bigger self, bigger dog- please pick. The Leon seems very similar, according to the review- practical, rapid, relatively discreet (though still with some subtle sporty looks), and with "livable" suspension settings- sporty enough handling without bone-crunching ride- all similar to the Fabia Vrs.As one of those vRS owners, although not looking for something bigger, I'd consider a Leon except for one serious flaw. I really don't like the blind spot from the huge sloping windsreen pillars.

Madonna Might Dare To Be Different But Her Pumped Up New York Socialite Face Certainly Doesn't…
Oh Madonna. The 55-year-old Queen of pop turned up at the 12 Years A Slave New York premiere last night and as you can see - the film's title could just as easily describe the terms of her plastic surgeon's retainer. As well as having a facelift, Madge is rumoured to have had cheek implants as well as numerous fillers - but why bother if you end up looking so... obviously plastic? And, answers on a postcard please if you have any idea where her ears have gone. The other day Madonna had a long essay published in Harper's Bazaar about how she's always been 'daring' and claimed that her whole life she's done the not expected thing. Well then why in the name of the pilsbury doughboy doesn't she do the daring thing with her appearance and allow herself to show off some well-earned wrinkles and a smudge of grey hair? Isn't getting a f-ckton of plastic surgery what every other 50-something New York socialite with an "embarrassment of riches" - as she put it - does and incredibly conformist, rather than her 'daring' to be different? Oh well, on the plus side she's taken her 'grills' out - poor old Brahim can sleep easy under the covers at night now (where is he by the way?) .

It's funny 'cause it's true.
Memo to Carla Bruni. Madonna may look as silly as you but noone has ever enjoyed themselves listening to your music.
Nah leave her alone. If you discover a hairy dimple on your chin Madge then it's probably time to stop.
In other news, I just shamelessly stole this from PB
Huh? What's wrong with making him go to the bathroom Sara from Crewe?
Maybe it's her surname
Sarah Crewe. S Crewe. Hmm
The birth of a meme.
She's heading into chipmunk cheek Ashley Judd territory
I think Madonna is deluding herself with what she has achieved by being daring. She has spent her entire career constantly waiving her fanny at us while brandishing guns , fiddling with herself on stage and flaunting her contrived lesbian flings – all in the name of p̶u̶b̶l̶i̶c̶i̶t̶y̶ "Art" . All she has done is pave the way for the likes of Rhiana, Gaga and Miley to plummet ever lower depths. It is not liberating or empowering to women, it is degrading.
Criticising her image as bad taste / exhibitionist etc is fair enough. Blaming her for the pornographication of popular culture doesnt wash. Two things are behind the pressures on female performers to be more and more sexually extreme in their image and performance : the internet and the porn it is saturated with.
And there's plenty of feminist liberation theory out there arguing persuasively that porn culture can be read as a backlash against the important gains made in the struggle for gender equality in the 60's-90's.
Hate the game, not the player.
"Hate the game, not the player." MilF you are wise, and I may have a crunch on you.
I'm crunching on you too twiggy and for Valentine's day I'm gonna get you a J'aime le cinéma tee shirt from Agnès B xxx
Ah but it's disappointing to us mere mortals that she feels the need to f*ck with her face to this extent. But ya know, she's always done exactly what she pleases.
I think that some women forget that the beauty of a face is in its movement and expression. Women get so obsessed at pulling pouty faces in the mirror, they forget this isn't how they look in everyday life to people. Then, women like these who get photographed a lot are maybe willing to sacrifice that to always look picture perfect – a la Kidman. Maybe once they've messed with their face so much they lose sight of the fact that it looks so odd. And since youth is increasing privileged, of course women don't want to get old and disappear.
But I think we all hoped Madge would be super human and immune to this shiz. Turns out she's just a woman, like the rest of us. She just thinks, screw wrinkles, I can afford not to have them.
Yay to no more grills, boo to the puffy face

Lonesome Hill Cemetery Stories
Lonesome Hill Cemetery. Located just southeast of Lebanon where I-44 (not the I-44 loop) meets SR5, also called Jefferson Ave. Take I-44 southwest for 7 miles and take the exit just past Caffeyville called Dove Road and turn right on Dove Road. This dead ends onto State Hwy W.Turn left onto State Hwy W and drive down it 2 miles, then turn right on Cattail Road and go down 1/4 mile. The cemetery will be on your right, just before you reach the railroad tracks. It has been said that at this haunted cemetery blue mists appear to come from the woods and follow people. Click here to view letters from visitors to this site.

Dear ghost story people, I was looking around on the net and came upon your site. I use to live in Lebanon Missouri and me and my friends loved to go ghost hunting. We have went to Lonsome Hill , Veteran park, and many others. We went to this one cemetery way way out in the woods that was a family cemetery. We had to go over some big hills and through a big field. When we made it to the field a big cloud of fog came out of the big group of trees in the middle of the field where the graves were and it never got in front of us or on the sides of us it just stayed behind us and when we got into the grave yard it surrounded the trees and never came into it. We pulled out an ouija board and played around with it and nothing happened, but there were acorn like things falling out of the tree's at us and it was a lil windy in the grave yard, but not in the other woods we had to go through to get there. And supposedly that grave yard was a slave grave yard for a family that owned that farm out there. The graves were back in the 1800's. Then we were in Ashley park one saturday night around midnight frog giging and I looked up at the gazebo up front cause something caught my eye and it looked like someone was standing up there and moved to the other side and I decided to go see who it was, cause well ashley park closed at 11:30 at night, we shouldn't have been there either lol it wasn't even frog gigging season. When I got up there, there wasn't any one there at all but it was real real cold and chilly, and down by the pond it wasnt. I started to walk back down to where my friends were at and It felt as if someone was pulling at my shirt and I turned around and no one was there. When I made it back over there my friend John asked me who was up there and I said no one and he said I seen some dude about close to 6 ft standing by you. Wearing a white shirt. I told him he was dreaming, and as we were getting in my tuck we heard what sounded like a gun shot over near the gazebo and I thought it was a crazy man and maybe there was someone over there and they were hiding and maybe they were crazy and if we stayed any longer they were gonna kill us. SO the next day I went and told my friends uncle and he said back in the 80's he could remember that a guy shot him self by the gazebo out there around midnight on a saturday night and he said he remembered it cause he was one of the responders with the ambulance and the dude had on a white t-shirt and the reason he remembered that is cause the shirt was covered in red blood and it looked real real red on that white shirt. I asked him if he remembered if he was tall and he didn't say, ever since that If im in Lebanon on a saturday night i go there and wait at the gazebo and hope ill run into him so I can find out who he is and why he is there. I live in Eldon Missouri now near Tuscumbia. Well Thank You, M S.
PS. I have found your site very very interesting.
The cemetery will have a blue sign that says lonesome hill on it. Also legend to this is that something is suppose to come from the trees and chase you around. It has happened to me and my sister and son. I have some great photos on this at my strange lights area on my web page. www.spookme.com

What I remember most is the soothing stench of Ozark lake water, the familiar feel of mildewed shag carpet between the tips of my toes and fingers, and sitting so close to the television that I could easily make out its pixels. Does that make it any less significant?
I was eight and Michael Jordan was sick. My grandfather was rooting for Utah; he loved John Stockton, and as to be contrary I pulled for the Bulls as much as I pushed for the Jazz. And as anyone born between 1988 and 1992 will tell you, the Jordan maelstrom was inescapable. We weren't born Chicago fans but we might as well have been. There was just no other choice.
Game 5 was never in doubt. That's not true, of course; the Bulls barely survived to regain control of the series. But my naïveté knew late-game Jordan heroics were inevitable. And that's actually the only specific game sequence I know I remember. MJ hits the dagger jumper over the top of Stockton, staggers to the bench in Scottie's arms and my mighty Bulls win.
The Flu Game isn't my earliest NBA memory or even my fondest. But what it's not doesn't matter half as much as what it is – the first time I understood I was watching history. So don't ask about Pippen's shooting struggles, Chicago's fourth quarter comeback or Ostertag's surprising double-double. I'd be lying if I even tried to answer.
But that smell, that touch, that sight and that feeling I vividly recall. And I remember, too, knowing I'd still remember it all almost twenty summers later.

Thomsen headed back to Arizona State
Arizona State coach Todd Graham has added former Texas Tech interim coach Chris Thomsen to his staff.
Graham announced Friday that Thomsen will take over as the Sun Devils' running backs coach after Larry Porter left to take the same position at Texas.
Graham hired Thomsen as an assistant coach in December 2011, but he left in February to become the offensive line coach at Texas Tech. Thomsen was named the interim coach two days after Tommy Tuberville left Lubbock to become the head coach at Cincinnati.
Thomsen led the Red Raiders to a 34-31 win over Minnesota in the Meineke Car Care Bowl.

Earth orbit for £1,000? You must be joking
Right, let's speculate!
You go up with the balloon, then want to use the gas for fuel. This will require several things. We need a balloon that can be deflated on command (plausible) , a controlled burn gaseous hydrogen rocket (difficult) and a main capsule that can control its orientation in the upper atmosphere.
Initial thoughts would be to launch the balloon up to a certain height, then force deflate it, compressing the gas internally within the main capsule. During this stage the craft will be in freefall, so the gas needs to be compressed as quickly as possible to minimise altitude loss. Problem: Heat from compressing the gas could lead to explosion, need study to find out how likely this is.
Once the hydrogen is compressed, we dump the balloon (with a parachute for recovery, balloons ain't cheap) align the main capsule and hit the burn button. This ignites our carefully released hydrogen fuel (some form of pulse rocket? Need to think about that.) and we burn for LEO. Do the rules specify what they're considering "space" to be? Anyway, once up, we release the satellite (Electronics chappies can probably do something with 20g) and hope it's somewhere vaguely stable for the next ~12 hours.
Recovery of the main capsule is a non-trivial problem left to the reader.

It's tiny, it's far away

They'll end up foreign built whatever.
Even with the cost of transportation and whatever other import cost bollockry they can come up with, it's just significantly cheaper to import from abroad than it is to build anything here.
You could probably make money by setting up a British company, taking whatever government cash is available and then importing all the turbines and staff anyway. Then once it's built, you sell the whole thing to a French energy company, pay off your loans and have a croissant and a glass of white wine.

They need controlled landings to put things on the ground where all the interesting stuff is. Boulders, craters and crevices do not make for good bounce-landing sites, but they're where a lot of the science is. That method looks obscene, but it allows for better placement and site selection, stops the rover being impeded by the landing gear or trapped on a landing platform and the rover's own suspension can handle any small surface irregularities.

@Lionel Baden
While the cynicism is traditional, and possibly true (this recession is a bit harsh, who can we sue to balance the books?), there's no reason this couldn't be the result of a breakdown in negotiations.
This section of their press release:
"Nokia has already successfully entered into license agreements ... including virtually all the leading mobile device vendors ..."
implies to me that they've convinced everyone else to hand over some wedge, but talks with Apple have broken down, so they're heading to the courts.

text: Fast Food Chain 'Jack in the Box' Accepting Food Stamps in San Antonio Print article Send a Tip by Kristin Tate 18 Jun 2014 post a comment The fast food chain Jack in the Box is now accepting food stamps as payment in San Antonio, Texas. An employee at Jack in the Box told Breitbart Texas that Electronic Benefit Transfer (EBT) cards--the "modern" version of food stamps, which look and function like debit cards--can be used to purchase anything on the menu. The fast food chain reportedly released a statement that said, "This is a great program for those customers who need financial assistance to help them feed their families, especially for some seniors and those who cannot cook for themselves." There are 48 Jack in the Box locations located in San Antonio, according to KENS 5. Residents in the area apparently noticed promotions and advertisements promoting the restaurant's acceptance of EBT cards. In recent years, the food stamp program has ballooned in size and scope. Almost one in six, or 47.5 million, Americans now benefit from the welfare program. Over 13 million more people receive the food subsidies today than when President Obama took office. Food stamp spending exceeded $80 billion last year, but the Department of Agriculture (USDA) has argued the program needs increased funding. In 2012, $6 billion was spent on food stamps in Texas alone; about 3.3 million Texans currently receive the food subsidies. Many assert that the food stamp program is often counterproductive by discouraging work. When a recipient starts making too much income, they lose the benefit. The incentive to find a job is seemingly gone. Follow Kristin Tate @KristinBTate.

"The Good Wife" recap (5.16): The Last Call
As the news spreads, some intern who's only been there for a week is wailing up a storm, being comforted by her friends, her sobs echoing through the offices, grating, offensive. Diane MF-ing Lockhart walks up to her with a stone cold look and asks if she's done crying yet. Crying Intern looks shocked and confused, says she doesn't know. Diane Lockhart tells her to pack up her things and go home.
This may seem insensitive, but as someone who's experienced That Person before, That Person Who Capitalizes on a Grief That Isn't Theirs, this is the best thing I've ever seen.
And then the elevator doors open, and Alicia walks in, looking lost and small. Diane sees her mere seconds after firing Crying Intern, and her face changes immediately, changes to the truth. She walks to Alicia, and they fall into one another.
They sit in Diane's office, and Diane shares that it was Jeffrey. That was supposed to be my case, Alicia says, contemplating. And then David snatches Diane away for a moment to talk LG business. That's when Alicia looks at her phone and sees she has three missed calls. One from Kalinda and one from Diane, when they were trying to reach her from the hospital. And then, one from Will Gardner, at 11:32 AM.
It's one of those horrible messages that are full of nothing. "Alicia." His voice, rising out of the ashes. There's a pause, the shuffling of papers, a distant warning from the judge in the background. He says, "Hold on, I'll call you back." And it's over. These type of voicemails always make me want to yell, "Just tell me what you need so I don't think someone's died or something, for goodness sakes!" But in this case, someone has died, and Alicia can't call Will back.
She'll spend the rest of the episode replaying this message over and over, either just to hear his voice or to discern why he was calling her, or a combination of the two. She goes to the courtroom and speaks to the judge, who for some reason is still there in his office, and he replays the scene. Jeffrey had first shot the witness, the math tutor; killed him. Will went to try and take the gun away; he was shot next. The prosecutor, Finn Polmar, grabbed Will's body, drug him across the courtroom to hide behind a desk; he was also shot in the process. He waited with Will until the medics came, holding his hand. Alicia heads to the hospital to talk to Finn Polmar.

UK.gov unmoved by Internet Explorer 6 security concerns
Google and the NHS may soon be ditching support for Internet Explorer 6, but that hasn't stopped UK government officials from declaring the browser doesn't give them cause for concern, unlike their French and German counterparts. On Friday Google - which was recently the victim of a high-profile attack from hackers understood to …
Version 7?
Why version 7? This is continually annoying me.
Every time I see a group of people declaring that they're finally moving from IE6, they move to IE7. Why not 8? If you're going to move, you might as well move to the latest version, right?
IE7's XP+ only, is it not?
so win2k would be out of the loop no matter if IE6 or 7
At what point does Admiral West say he's happy with IE6? He says "There is no evidence that moving from the latest fully patched versions of Internet Explorer to other browsers will make users more secure." which suggests he expects departments to be using IE8 to me.
What a joker
"There is no evidence that moving from the latest fully patched versions of Internet Explorer to other browsers will make users more secure."
Perhaps he should gain the ability to research this, maybe just looking at this graphical display of the relative number of security holes in IE and other browsers:
UK gov + computers = Fail
It just shows how entrenched MSFT is in UK.gov. No amount of facts can change financial relationships between those guys and MSFT sales guys.
"latest fully patched versions"
Well yes. But that was *not* the question being asked. It seems serveral departments of HMG can't get this brownser dumped.
But why? Did idiot developers (all the usual suspects) rely on V6 specific features. Or is existing hardware simply too knackered to run anything more up to date?
That lot
straight answers supply they do not.
"additional security measures, unlikely to be available to the average home computer user"
What is he on about ? I call shenanigans !
Additional security measures
He's on about those extra little checks that UK Gov does on every piece of traffic it can snoop into. The results are not likely to be available to anyone but the spooks, who are not average home computer users.
Excuse me, there are a couple of large blokes with an unmarked van knocking on my door. Time to use the emergency exit ...
... (fading into the distance) "you'll never take me alive copper^H^H^H^H^H^H unnamed persons who may or may not be working for a government department. AAARGH".
Pass my coat ...
What they really mean is "we haven't got anywhere near the time or budget to contemplate testing, certifying, redeveloping, and moving ALL our systems en-masse from IE6.
The wonders of single supplier lock-in (which was what the corporate browser market had at the start of this millenium).
I understand the issue...
The issue is that public sectors have to put up with shit software and support companies - a lot of the software uses nasty ActiveX hacks which stops Firefox in it's tracks; some of the said companies only make their latest version of their software work on IE8.
The reason they have possibly picked IE7 is that something important works on IE7 but not IE8 so the DoH are possibly picking IE7 as it works without a lot of problems but IE8 cause a few which they cannot afford to fix and offers them slightly more security.
Anon as I work in the public sector and I doubt they would appreciate this post.
just pick the right day to say it
"There is no evidence that moving from the latest fully patched versions of Internet Explorer to other browsers will make users more secure."
Some days of the month it is literally true, right after the MS patch day what he says about evidence may be true; but just before the scheduled patch-day it may not be.
It's just a case of picking which day to make those statements.
His advisor may have picked the right day, but did he?
The most sensible thing ever said about security
"Complex software will always have vulnerabilities and motivated adversaries will always work to discover and take advantage of them,"
who said that? Some M$ sales person? :)
Major Fail
There is no reason to do IE7 when IE8 has a fully compatible IE7 renderer built in
Why still on IE6?
I wonder if the reason that UKGov is still using IE6 is because everything is outsourced now to companies like EDS, Crapita, et al and getting them to change the browser involves a huge amount of bureaucracy and red tape, plus not forgetting the huge charge the outsourcers will put on even the most minor of change requests.
Crapita et. al. incompetence...
...not exactly a surprise. If you're one of these public sector contractors it seems you can get away with crap which would get you sacked in the private sector.
And they don't just get away with it, they have the government coming back for more.
It's all about risk!
The security risk is less expensive to cover up then the security improvements cost.
Same goes for bank's and smart cards, they have always picked the cheaper option.
It looks good when they save money, later when the shit hits the fan, they have moved on.
Long live the contractor.
The buck stops with the next fall guy, LOL.
IE8 doesn't go on Windows 2000 so it's a big deal to change up.
Microsoft are often to be found posting useful or at least interesting features in their software t!and then dropping them from the next version. A calendar and schedule tool in Windows for Workgroups 3.11wasn't in Windows 95. Disk data compression comes and goes and comes and goes between versions. So IE6 probably has a boatload of web embrace-extend-extinguish features that developers used, that were extinguished by Microsoft in IE7 and IE8 - even with compatibility options in the latter. Bastards. (I didn't want to use the word but it's clearly necessary.)
Not Surprising
The BBC is riddled with ex-Microsoft staff, no reason the government isn't either.
Rearrange these words to make a sentence
Excellent. You've now earned 'Gold Partner' status.
In fairness...
...it's hard to see the problem when your head's stuck that far up your arse.
tfl.gov.uk site
Crapita sounds right. I tried to find out our vans status via thier site and it rejected requests from firefox but was OK with MSIE7. I then tweaked FF to submit with MSIE headers and hey presto it worked. Looks like Crapita have coded the servers to detect MSIE User-Agent: and bounce FF et.al.
And Lord West was in charge of the defence of the realm? Might well be closer to the truth that the upgrading will cost money and resources. Much better to spend it on a nice new lock to be used when the horse is halfway down the road.
There is no evidence ...
""There is no evidence that moving from the latest fully patched versions of Internet Explorer to other browsers will make users more secure."
Typical Government response. We avoid researching things that we think we might not like the answer to, so that we can say "there is no evidence".
But maybe the government should research advocating firefox together with flashblock and noscript. They should be advocating a browser that at least tries to comply with standards instead of inventing new substandards.

2009 Chateau Gracia Saint Emilion
"The 2009 Gracia competes handsomely with the spectacular 2005 and 2000 vintages. A slightly more evolved and fleshy effort, the inky/purple-hued 2009 (75 % Merlot, 20% Cabernet Franc and 5% Cabernet Sauvignon) is a massive, thick powerhouse with 14.5% natural alcohol. Proprietor Michel Gracia often makes a wine that is similar to that of his friend, the proprietor of Ausone. Blueberry, blackberry, licorice, forest floor, smoke and graphite aromas jump from the glass of this unctuously textured, layered, multidimensional St.-Emilion. Displaying an inner core of extract (yields were only 19 hectoliters per hectare) and not a hard edge to be found, this youthful 2009 tastes more like a barrel sample than a finished wine. It will benefit from 5-10 years of cellaring and should last for 3-4 decades." -Robert Parker

Copious chocolate, graphite, blackberry, blueberry, cassis, and ink characteristics are present in this full-bodied, powerful, massive St.-Emilion.

Pilgrim Baptist Church to be reborn from ashes of 2006 fire
BY LISA DONOVAN Staff email@example.com
Fittingly occurring during the Christian season of Lent, leaders of Bronzeville's historic Pilgrim Baptist Church on Saturday unveiled plans for the resurrection of the architectural masterpiece that went up in flames five years ago.
Under newly minted architectural plans, by September 2012, the burned-out shell of the church widely revered as the birthplace of gospel music, will have a brand new roof and reinforced walls.
Gone will be the imposing exterior bracing — needed support against Chicago winds — that have all but hidden the city landmark designed by famed Chicago architect Louis H. Sullivan since the fire.
But it will only be the first in a multi-phase plan to re-open the sanctuary at 3301 S. Indiana for worship, and likely a few years before its members will actually be able to attend services there.
The project is expected to be done in four phases, with the pricetag for the full restoration at about $41 million. Church officials estimated it will take about a third of that — $14 million to $15 million — to get the doors open for worship services.
"It is a monumental day for this church,a great moment for the church members," Cynthia M. Jones, vice chair of Pilgrim's board of trustees, said. "For the church, we're going from a tragedy that robbed this nation of an architectural jewel to a rebirth, from ashes to light."
Chicago-based Johnson & Lee Architects Ltd., in the South Loop, is handling the design.
The first phase, to cost $3.5 million, is about "keeping the elements out" during restoration, said Architect Christopher Lee. Braces and columns will be added inside the church to reinforce the walls and lay the groundwork for the installation of floors, and a roof will be added, along with the framework for a clerestory — complete with lighting to showcase the project at night, Lee said.
Any work would first have to receive the blessing of the Commission on Chicago Landmarks, he said.
"What we're going to do is follow what was done historically with the building in terms of the design, but we'll update it," Lee said, noting a "fire suppression system" will be installed.
As to how the church is footing the bill, Jones would only say, "Fundraising continues." The board hopes people would be inspired to donate when the renovation is solidly underway, Jones said.
"Once people see the lights, they'll know we're in the fundraising process," she said.
The board could offer no firm date on when exactly the 300-member congregation could expect to once again worship at the church. Services are currently held at a community center across the street.
And Jones declined to discuss the fate of a $41 million plan to rebuild the sanctuary and some other facilities on the site that church leaders had unveiled in 2008.
"We are on a journey," she said.
But it's clear the landmark must expand beyond just a place of worship, to potentially a home to cultural and community events, she said.
"The building is one of the most architectural and culturally significant buildings in the world (from) Adler and Sullivan," said Jones, referring to Dankmar Adler, Sullivan's partner on the 1891 building, which started out as a synagogue. "We realize we have to go beyond the Baptist faith."
