Automotive electronics firms of various kinds are teaming up with partners in China. During 2013:
Airbiquity and China Unicom announced a partnership to provide telematics services for the Chinese automotive market, leveraging Airbiquity's Choreo connected vehicle service delivery platform and China Unicom's telecom infrastructure and service provider capabilities.
Geely Automobile Group and Detroit Electric Inc. formed a partnership to co-develop pure electric vehicles and related electric drive systems for the Chinese market.
STMicroelectronics and Great Wall Motor Company Limited (GWM) announced a strategic partnership and the establishment of a joint development laboratory at GWM's Technical Center.
AutoNavi Holdings Limited, which provides digital map content and navigation solutions in China, announced plans to integrate its mobile navigation technology into QNX Software Systems' QNX CAR™ Platform for Infotainment. And Foryou General Electronics Co. Ltd. chose the QNX CAR™ platform to develop infotainment systems for automakers in China.
PATEO Corporation, a Chinese manufacturer of embedded automotive systems, selected RealVNC software for MirrorLink™ certified in-car connectivity.
NXP Semiconductors N.V. and DATANG TELECOM TECHNOLOGY CO., LTD announced the establishment of a joint venture (JV), which they say is the first true automotive semiconductor company in China.
Most recently, Mentor Graphics and Chinese automaker Jianghuai Automobile Co Ltd (JAC) announced the successful deployment of the Mentor® Volcano™ and Capital® tool suites. JAC uses the Mentor Capital suite for electrical system design and Volcano products for in-vehicle communications implementation.
The partnerships provide significant advantages for both sides. Drue Freeman, NXP senior vice president, global automotive sales & marketing, notes that China is a market in which most businesses are joint ventures. "The government tends to prefer it that way," he says.
And China needs technology developed beyond its borders. JAC deputy general manager Yan Gang says "Mentor's technology for automotive electrical and electronics design is world leading. Given the importance of electronic systems in modern vehicles, products such as Capital and Volcano clearly boost JAC's competitive position, not only in China but also worldwide."

We're a bit late on this but better late than never, it has been rumored for awhile that SBC will acquire AT&T but now it has been finalized by the AT&T board just needs to pass share holders and regulatory approval. The FTC better take a close look at this merger, I rather not go back to the days that Ma Bell rule the world. We would still be dialing with rotary phones if that was the case. We'll keep a close look on how the SBC/AT&T/Cingular conglomerate will effect the Blackberry world.
Monthly Archive for January, 2005
USA ePay has come out with a hardware attachment that will allow automatic credit card processing through the Blackberry. The device works on Blackberry handhelds that have OS 4.0 installed. The program has already been tested and deployed. The first major customer is Prime Time Shuttles, which has been testing the device in its LA location and will soon launch nation-wide.
I can see it now, pizza delivery men and woman racing to the stores to buy a Blackberry.

Mobile 88 has a review on the new Siemens Sk65 that comes with Blackberry connect. It is actually the first 3rd party hardware to come out with the Blackberry connect software. The phone comes in 3 versions, 2 of them with Blackberry connect and the other one without. Unfortunately the reviewer received the one without any Blackberry connect software. If anyone from RIM is reading this, we would love to review the SK65 with Blackberry Connect. Even with that in mind the review is still a good read and showcases the direction of RIM, concentrating on software rather than hardware.
Anonymous reader asked "Is it possible to have BOTH webclient and BES active on a BlackBerry?". It is very much possible that you can use both BES and BWC (Blackberry Web Client). The only issue is that there is no way that you can seperate emails coming from your BES email or BWC email, they all go in the same inbox. To tell what email was sent to what addresss, you will need to check each email and look at the "To" field. Read further on how to setup your BWC.

The 7100g will actually be first introuced by 3 Hong Kong, instead of Cingular. It is expected to come out mid-February, we still do not have any word when Cingular's version will be rolled out. 3 Hong Kong was actually the first Asian carrier to introduce the Blackberry handheld and now they will be the first to introduce the 7100 to the Asian market. The 7100g will have the same 22-key layout as the 7100t and the 7100v, "push-email", Bluetooth, and a 260×240 LCD screen. The major difference in the 7100g is that it works on CDMA networks.

by Dominic Devito Rockford Fosgate's Prime Series loaded sub enclosures let you put big bass in your car without taking a big hit to your bank account. These tough-as-nails sealed boxes feature 5/8"-thick medium-density fiberboard construction and heavy-duty black carpeting for protection. Rockford Fosgate used their Loudspeaker Enclosure Analysis Program to create an enclosure that'll draw every ounce of bass out of its two subs. The R1L-2X12 sealed loaded enclosure comes with two Prime 4-ohm 12" subs, and handles up to 300 watts RMS. Each Prime sub features a polypropylene cone and butyl rubber surround, and the subs are matched to the enclosure for accurate bass that just won't quit.

The advantage to buying an enclosed sub is that the manufacturer made the sub, then designed and built the box as a perfect match, so you'll get the best possible performance. Every enclosed sub has a maximum RMS power handling rating, so pair it with an amp with a similar RMS power rating to get the best performance.

Amazing Written By Guy, Boone, NC on Monday, July 13, 2009 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) This sub package is amazing. the shipping was super fast, i got it within two days on the standard free shipping. It hits hard and precise if your looking for style and quality this is definately an option. i have it hooked up to a kenwood 600W amp 300x1 @2, and it bumps. I've got the bass pretty much as low as it will go and there is still great quality.

Although Super Duck is getting her study hall pass tomorrow, she is not a very happy girl. Why? Well, today was drug test day, and they've, uh, switched methods. Some people cannot use public restrooms unless it's an absolute emergency. Super Duck is one of those people. Today was not a fun day.
I didn't have my usual study hall teacher today. Instead, I had my history teacher. We all know how I feel about my history teacher. Guess what? She is ten times worse in study hall. WHY do these teachers take a non-class so seriously? I guess it doesn't matter, though, since TOMORROW I SHALL PREVAIL! Ahahaha, yes! It shall be so great!
Facebook advertisements know what kind of car I have. I'm a little scared. I think they are stalking me. Hahaha! Apparently, you can buy eyelashes for your car. That's, uh, interesting.
French Class Girl was nice today. She talked to me for a while and didn't laugh at me when Irritating Girl told her of my, uh, issue earlier today. In fact, I think she kind of almost felt bad for me. She then started complaining about some movie being disgusting. I asked her why it was so awful. Her answer? "I liked it at first, but then it showed a dick. EWWWWW!"
...Oh, wow. I started laughing, and I think she noticed. She didn't say anything, though. FCG is not allowed to deny being a lesbian anymore. She just can't after that.
I just ate some peanut butter with chocolate and drank a sip of Coca-Cola. My mouth now tastes like Play-Doh. I am very, very confused. I used to love Play-Doh. Now I wish I had some.
I almost saw up Old Crush's skirt today! ALMOST! But then she moved her leg. Awww. Sad day. I hope she didn't catch me trying to look! Today has been embarrassing enough.
I just googled "car eyelashes".
...Thanks a whole cheesy lot!
My old crush- I sure tell you a whole load of stuff 'bout her, huh?- wore a skirt one day, and I took all her stuff and deliberately set it on the floor. She knew what I was trying to get at (I was being really obvious about it 'cause her and me can be cool like that) and to this day, I still don't understand how she managed to pick everything up without bending over or exposing herself in anyway. It just blows my mind.
My old crush barely knows me, so that would NOT go over well with her! Hahaha! And I guess it's just magical old crush powers
They drug test you at school?

I don't need company in the company of you. I don't need love, your love will do. And I've got you and you've got me and this is all you need. I don't need air, I don't need to breathe. I don't need rest, I don't have time to sleep.
Yes! And for like, no reason. They ALWAYS do the honors classes whenever they pull "random" classes. I'm about ready to freakin' refuse if they don't offer an alternative method 'cause this just won't work!

Cusco's Traditional Festivals: The Virgin of Carmen
The annual festival in honor of the Virgin of Carmen, known locally as Mamacha Carmen, patron saint of Paucartambo and the mestizo population, is a colorful mix of Andean pre-Columbian ceremonies and Catholic religion in which dancers relive ancient gods and rites and thousand of devotees hold festivals in honor of the Virgin.
Held at various times in several communities in the Andean highlands, the festivities include a procession of the Virgin through the streets while the dancers advance and retreat in the never ending battle between the forces of good and evil.
The gathering, that raises the curtain on these days of celebrations, is held in the main square, where a band of musicians plays instruments while richly dressed choirs sing in Quechua. The setting gives way to a series of ingenious choreographies that portray events in Peruvian history.
For five days, dance companies in various costumes (Doctorcitos, Waca Waca, Sarjas) wander around the streets to accompany the virgin throughout the entire procession through the main square, the church and the city streets. On the main day, the Virgin blesses those present and scares away demons. The dancers perform daring gymnastics, showing off their colorful Inca and colonial garb. At the end of the procession, the faithful emerge in triumph. Finally, the gathering ends up in the cemetery to render homage to the souls of the dead.
The festival is characterized by religious fervor, as supplicants pray for miracles. If you've been to Peru and enjoyed this festival, share your experiences in our blog.
Come and celebrate the Virgin of the Carmen festivity! For more information about festivals, tours and activities in Cusco, please contact us or visit our website

Spyker have been forced to postpone the launch of their new B-spec car until the Italian Grand Prix due to it unexpectedly failing the rear impact test. The team will now contest this weekend's Turkish Grand Prix with two A-spec machines.
It's obviously very disappointing to delay the launch, especially considering the hard work that everyone at the factory and track has put in, commented chief technical officer, Mike Gascoyne.
Unfortunately last week we had an unexpected failure of the rear crash test, possibly due to problems with a batch of material used. Unfortunately all the other structures available we had to test were from this batch and the modifications we tried to make were not sufficient.
These tests are quite rightly very stringent and difficult to pass, but we did not expect to have a problem as the structure is very similar to the A spec one. We are confident that we understand the problem however and should be able to pass with no problems next week.
Gascoyne added: We will now concentrate on doing the best we can this weekend. As we were aware we had a problem we brought two A-spec cars as well as two B-spec cars, so we will not have any problems switching back, but it's just disappointing not to have the performance increase as planned.
On a more positive note, we will now be able to test the car at the pre-Italian Grand Prix test next week at Monza, which should allow us to be in better shape.

Bloody Sunday (Irish: Domhnach na Fola)[1][2]—sometimes called the Bogside Massacre[3]—was an incident on 30 January 1972 in the Bogside area of Derry, Northern Ireland, in which 26 civil rights protesters and bystanders were shot by soldiers of the British Army. Thirteen males, seven of whom were teenagers, died immediately or soon after, while the death of another man four-and-a-half months later was attributed to the injuries he received on that day. Two protesters were also injured when they were run down by army vehicles.[4][5] The incident occurred during a Northern Ireland Civil Rights Association march; the soldiers involved were members of the First Battalion of the Parachute Regiment (1 Para).[6]
Two investigations have been held by the British government. The Widgery Tribunal, held in the immediate aftermath of the event, largely cleared the soldiers and British authorities of blame — John Widgery described the soldiers' shooting as "bordering on the reckless"—but was widely criticised as a "whitewash".[7][8][9] The Saville Inquiry, chaired by Lord Saville of Newdigate, was established in 1998 to reinvestigate the events. Following a 12-year inquiry, Saville's report was made public on 15 June 2010, and contained findings of fault that could re-open the controversy, and potentially lead to criminal investigations for some soldiers involved in the killings.[10] The report found that all of those shot were unarmed, and that the killings were both "unjustified and unjustifiable." On the publication of the Saville report the British prime minister, David Cameron, made a formal apology on behalf of the United Kingdom.[11]
The Provisional Irish Republican Army's (IRA) campaign had begun in the two years prior to Bloody Sunday, but public perceptions of the day boosted the status of, and recruitment into, the organisation enormously.[12] Bloody Sunday remains among the most significant events in the Troubles of Northern Ireland because of the high number of casualties and fatalities killed by British regulars in full view of the public and the press.[3]
In the late 1960s, perceived discrimination against the Catholic minority in electoral boundaries, voting rights, and the allocation of public housing[13] led organisations such as Northern Ireland Civil Rights Association (NICRA) to mount a non-violent campaign for change.[14] The NICRA were secretly sponsored by the Irish Republican Army (IRA) in the hope that there would be a campaign of civil disturbance which would unseat the unionist government in Belfast.[15]
While initially welcomed by the Catholics as a neutral force, relations between them[who?] and the Army soon deteriorated.[16]
In response to escalating levels of violence across Northern Ireland, internment without trial was introduced on 9 August 1971.[17] In a quid pro quo gesture to nationalists, all marches and parades were banned, including the flashpoint march by the Apprentice Boys of Derry which was due to take place on 12 August.[18] There was disorder across Northern Ireland following the introduction of internment, with 21 people being killed in three days of rioting.[19] On 10 August, Bombardier Paul Challenor became the first soldier to be killed by the Provisional IRA in Derry, when he was shot by a sniper on the Creggan estate.[20] A further six soldiers had been killed in Derry by mid-December 1971.[21] 1,332 rounds were fired at the British Army, who also faced 211 explosions and 180 nail bombs[21] and who fired 364 rounds in return.
Provisional IRA activity also increased across Northern Ireland with thirty British soldiers being killed in the remaining months of 1971, in contrast to the ten soldiers killed during the pre-internment period of the year.[19] Both the Official IRA and Provisional IRA had established "no-go" areas for the British Army and RUC in Derry through the use of barricades.[22] By the end of 1971, 29 barricades were in place to prevent access to what was known as Free Derry, 16 of them impassable even to the British Army's one-ton armoured vehicles.[22] IRA members openly mounted roadblocks in front of the media, and daily clashes took place between nationalist youths and the British Army at a spot known as "aggro corner".[22] Due to rioting and damage to shops caused by incendiary devices, an estimated total of £4 million worth of damage had been done to local businesses.[22]
In January 1972 the NICRA intended, despite the ban, to organise a march in Derry to protest against internment. The authorities, who knew of the proposed march, decided to allow it to proceed in the Catholic areas of the city, but to stop it from reaching Guildhall Square, as planned by the organisers. Major General Robert Ford, then Commander of Land Forces in Northern Ireland, ordered that 1st Battalion, the Parachute Regiment (1 PARA), should travel to Derry to be used to arrest possible rioters during the march.[23] 1 PARA arrived in Derry on the morning of Sunday 30 January 1972 and took up positions in the city.[24]
Many details of the day's events are in dispute, with no agreement even on the number of marchers present that day. The organisers, "Insight", claimed that there were 30,000 marchers; Lord Widgery, in his now discredited tribunal,[25][26][27][28] said that there were only 3,000 to 5,000. In The Road To Bloody Sunday, local GP Dr Raymond McClean estimated the crowd as 15,000,[29] which is the figure that was used by Bernadette Devlin in Parliament.[30]
Numerous books and articles have been written and documentary films have been made on the subject.[31]
The people planned on marching to the Guildhall, but because of army barricades designed to reroute the march, the protesters redirected it to Free Derry Corner. A group of teenagers broke off from the march and persisted in pushing the barricade and marching on the Guildhall. They attacked the British army barricade with stones. At this point, a water cannon, tear gas and rubber bullets were used to disperse the rioters. Such confrontations between soldiers and youths were common, and observers reported that the rioting was not intense.[32] Two civilians, Damien Donaghy and John Johnston, were shot and wounded on William Street by soldiers, who claimed that the former was carrying a black cylindrical object.[33]
At a certain point, reports of an IRA sniper operating in the area were allegedly given to the Army command centre. At 4:07 pm Brigade gave the British Parachute Regiment permission to go into the Bogside. The order to fire live rounds was given,[citation needed] and one young man was shot and killed when he ran down Chamberlain Street away from the advancing troops. This first fatality, Jackie Duddy, was among a crowd who were running away. He was running alongside a priest, Father Edward Daly, when he was shot in the back.[34] Eventually the order was given to mobilise the troops in an arrest operation, chasing the tail of the main group of marchers to the edge of the field by Free Derry Corner.
Despite a cease-fire order from the army HQ, over 100 rounds were fired directly into the fleeing crowds by troops under the command of Major Ted Loden. Twelve more were killed,[35] many of them as they attempted to aid the fallen. Fourteen others were wounded, 12 by shots from the soldiers and two knocked down by armoured personnel carriers.
Thirteen people were shot and killed, with another man later dying of his wounds. The official army position, backed by the British Home Secretary the next day in the House of Commons, was that the paratroopers had reacted to gun and nail bomb attacks from suspected IRA members. All eyewitnesses (apart from the soldiers), including marchers, local residents, and British and Irish journalists present, maintain that soldiers fired into an unarmed crowd, or were aiming at fleeing people and those tending the wounded, whereas the soldiers themselves were not fired upon. No British soldier was wounded by gunfire or reported any injuries, nor were any bullets or nail bombs recovered to back up their claims.
In the events that followed, irate crowds burned down the British embassy on Merrion Square in Dublin.[41] Anglo-Irish relations hit one of their lowest ebbs, with the Irish Minister for Foreign Affairs, Patrick Hillery, going specially to the United Nations in New York to demand UN involvement in the Northern Ireland "Troubles".[42]
Although there were many IRA men—both Official and Provisional—present at the protest, it is claimed they were all unarmed, apparently because it was anticipated that the paratroopers would attempt to "draw them out".[43] March organiser and MP Ivan Cooper had been promised beforehand that no armed IRA men would be near the march. One paratrooper who gave evidence at the Tribunal testified that they were told by an officer to expect a gunfight and "We want some kills".[44] In the event, one man was witnessed by Father Edward Daly and others haphazardly firing a revolver in the direction of the paratroopers. Later identified as a member of the Official IRA, this man was also photographed in the act of drawing his weapon, but was apparently not seen or targeted by the soldiers. Various other claims have been made to the Saville Inquiry about gunmen on the day.[45]
The city's coroner, retired British Army Major Hubert O'Neill, issued a statement on 21 August 1973, at the completion of the inquest into the people killed.[46] He declared:
" | This Sunday became known as Bloody Sunday and bloody it was. It was quite unnecessary. It strikes me that the Army ran amok that day and shot without thinking what they were doing. They were shooting innocent people. These people may have been taking part in a march that was banned but that does not justify the troops coming in and firing live rounds indiscriminately. I would say without hesitation that it was sheer, unadulterated murder. It was murder. | " |
Two days after Bloody Sunday, the Westminster Parliament adopted a resolution for a tribunal into the events of the day, resulting in Prime Minister Edward Heath commissioning the Lord Chief Justice, Lord Widgery to undertake it. Many witnesses intended to boycott the tribunal as they lacked faith in Widgery's impartiality, but were eventually persuaded to take part. Widgery's quickly produced report—completed within ten weeks (10 April) and published within eleven (19 April)—supported the Army's account of the events of the day. Among the evidence presented to the tribunal were the results of paraffin tests, used to identify lead residues from firing weapons, and that nail bombs had been found on the body of one of those killed. Tests for traces of explosives on the clothes of eleven of the dead proved negative, while those of the remaining man could not be tested as they had already been washed. Most Irish people and witnesses to the event disputed the report's conclusions and regarded it as a whitewash. It has been argued that firearms residue on some deceased may have come from contact with the soldiers who themselves moved some of the bodies, or that the presence of lead on the hands of one (James Wray) was easily explained by the fact that his occupation involved the use of lead-based solder. In fact, in 1992, John Major, writing to John Hume stated:
" | The Government made clear in 1974 that those who were killed on 'Bloody Sunday' should be regarded as innocent of any allegation that they were shot whilst handling firearms or explosives. I hope that the families of those who died will accept that assurance.[47] | " |
Following the events of Bloody Sunday Bernadette Devlin, an Independent Socialist nationalist MP from Northern Ireland, expressed anger at what she perceived as government attempts to stifle accounts being reported about the day. Having witnessed the events firsthand, she was later infuriated that she was consistently denied the chance to speak in Parliament about the day, although parliamentary convention decreed that any MP witnessing an incident under discussion would be granted an opportunity to speak about it in the House.[48] Devlin punched Reginald Maudling, the Secretary of State for the Home Department in the Conservative government, when he made a statement to Parliament on the events of Bloody Sunday stating that the British Army had fired only in self-defence.[49] She was temporarily suspended from Parliament as a result of the incident.[50] Nonetheless, six months after Bloody Sunday, Lieutenant Colonel Derek Wilford who was directly in charge of 1 Para, the soldiers who went into the Bogside, was awarded the Order of the British Empire by the Queen, while other soldiers were equally decorated with honors for their part on the day.[51]
In January 1997, the United Kingdom television station Channel 4 carried a news report that suggested that members of the Royal Anglian Regiment had also opened fire on the protesters and could have been responsible for three of the fourteen deaths.
On 29 May 2007 it was reported that General Sir Mike Jackson, [then Captain Mike Jackson] second-in-command of 1 Para on Bloody Sunday, said: "I have no doubt that innocent people were shot".[52] This was in sharp contrast to his insistence, for more than 30 years, that those killed on the day had not been innocent.[53] In 2008 a former aide to British Prime Minister Tony Blair, Jonathan Powell, described Widgery as a "complete and utter whitewash".[54] In 1998 Lieutenant Colonel Derek Wilford expressed his anger at Tony Blair's intention of setting up the Saville inquiry, citing he was proud of his actions on Bloody Sunday.[55] Two years later in 2000 during an interview with the BBC, Wilford said "There might have been things wrong in the sense that some innocent people, people who were not carrying a weapon, were wounded or even killed. But that was not done as a deliberate malicious act. It was done as an act of war." [56]
Although British Prime Minister John Major rejected John Hume's requests for a public inquiry into the killings, his successor, Tony Blair, decided to start one. A second commission of inquiry, chaired by Lord Saville, was established in January 1998 to re-examine Bloody Sunday. The other judges were John Toohey QC, a former Justice of the High Court of Australia who had worked on Aboriginal issues (he replaced New Zealander Sir Edward Somers QC, who retired from the Inquiry in 2000 for personal reasons), and Mr Justice William Hoyt QC, former Chief Justice of New Brunswick and a member of the Canadian Judicial Council. The hearings were concluded in November 2004, and the report was published 15 June 2010. The Saville Inquiry was a more comprehensive study than the Widgery Tribunal, interviewing a wide range of witnesses, including local residents, soldiers, journalists and politicians. Lord Saville declined to comment on the Widgery report and made the point that the Saville Inquiry was a judicial inquiry into Bloody Sunday, not the Widgery Tribunal.
Evidence given by Martin McGuinness, a senior member of Sinn Féin and now the deputy First Minister of Northern Ireland, to the inquiry stated that he was second-in-command of the Derry City brigade of the Provisional IRA and was present at the march. He did not answer questions about where he had been staying because he said it would compromise the safety of the individuals involved.
A claim was made at the Saville Inquiry that McGuinness was responsible for supplying detonators for nail bombs on Bloody Sunday. Paddy Ward claimed he was the leader of the Fianna Éireann, the youth wing of the IRA in January 1972. He claimed that McGuinness, the second-in-command of the IRA in the city at the time, and another anonymous IRA member gave him bomb parts on the morning of 30 January, the date planned for the civil rights march. He said his organisation intended to attack city-centre premises in Derry on the day when civilians were shot dead by British soldiers. In response McGuinness rejected the claims as "fantasy", while Gerry O'Hara, a Sinn Féin councillor in Derry stated that he and not Ward was the Fianna leader at the time.[39]
Many observers allege that the Ministry of Defence acted in a way to impede the inquiry.[57] Over 1,000 army photographs and original army helicopter video footage were never made available. Additionally, guns used on the day by the soldiers that could have been evidence in the inquiry were lost by the MoD.[58][59] The MoD claimed that all the guns had been destroyed, but some were subsequently recovered in various locations (such as Sierra Leone and Beirut) despite the obstruction.[60]
By the time the inquiry had retired to write up its findings, it had interviewed over 900 witnesses, over seven years, making it the biggest investigation in British legal history.[59] The cost of this process has drawn criticism; as of the publication of the Saville Report being £195 million.[61]
The inquiry was expected to report in late 2009 but was delayed until after the general election on 6 May 2010.[62]
The report of the inquiry[63] was published on 15 June 2010. The report concluded, "The firing by soldiers of 1 PARA on Bloody Sunday caused the deaths of 13 people and injury to a similar number, none of whom was posing a threat of causing death or serious injury."[64] Saville stated that British paratroopers "lost control", fatally shooting fleeing civilians and those who tried to aid civilians who had been shot by the British soldiers.[65] The report stated that British soldiers had concocted lies in their attempt to hide their acts.[65] Saville stated that the civilians had not been warned by the British soldiers that they intended to shoot.[66] The report states, contrary to the previously established belief, that no stones and no petrol bombs were thrown by civilians before British soldiers shot at them, and that the civilians were not posing any threat.[65]
The report concluded that an Official IRA sniper fired on British soldiers, albeit that on the balance of evidence his shot was fired after the Army shots that wounded Damien Donaghey and John Johnston. The Inquiry rejected the sniper's account that this shot had been made in reprisal, stating the view that he and another Official IRA member had already been in position, and the shot had probably been fired simply because the opportunity had presented itself.[67] Ultimately the Saville Inquiry was inconclusive on Martin McGuinness' role, due to a lack of certainty over his movements, concluding that while he was "engaged in paramilitary activity" during Bloody Sunday, and had probably been armed with a Thompson submachine gun, there was insufficient evidence to make any finding other than they were "sure that he did not engage in any activity that provided any of the soldiers with any justification for opening fire".[68]
Regarding the soldiers in charge on the day of Bloody Sunday, Saville found: Lieutenant Colonel Derek Wilford was commander of 1 Para and on the day was directly responsible for arresting rioters and returning to base. However, Wilford 'deliberately disobeyed' his superior Brigadier [Patrick] MacLellan's orders by sending Support Company into the Bogside [and without informing MacLellan].[51] Brigadier Patrick MacLellan was operational commander of the day. The Saville Inquiry cleared MacLellan of any wrongdoing as he was under the impression that Wilford would follow orders by arresting rioters and then returning to base, and could not be blamed for Wilford's actions.[51] Major General Robert Ford was Commander of land forces and set the British strategy to oversee the civil march in Derry. Although Saville cleared Ford of any fault, he found Ford's selection of 1 Para, and in particular Wilford to be in control of arresting rioters, to be disconcerting, specifically as "1 PARA was a force with a reputation for using excessive physical violence, which thus ran the risk of exacerbating the tensions between the Army and nationalists".[51] Major Ted Loden was the commander in charge of soldiers, following orders issued by Lieutenant Colonel Wilford. Saville cleared Loden of misconduct, citing that Loden "neither realised nor should have realised that his soldiers were or might be firing at people who were not posing or about to pose a threat".[51] In short, the inquiry found that Loden could not be held responsible for claims (whether malicious or not) by some of the individual soldiers that they had received fire from snipers. Captain Mike Jackson [later General Sir Mike Jackson] was second in command of 1 Para on the day of Bloody Sunday. Saville cleared Jackson of sinister actions following Jackson's compiling of a list of what soldiers told Major Loden on why they had fired. This list became known as the "Loden List of Engagements" which played a role in the Army's initial explanations. While Saville found the compiling of the list was 'far from ideal', he accepted Jackson's explanations based on the list not containing the names of soldiers and the number of times they fired.[51] Saville had concluded that Lance Corporal F was responsible for a number of the deaths and that a number of soldiers have "knowingly put forward false accounts in order to seek to justify their firing".[51] Intelligence officer Colonel Maurice Tugwell and Colin Wallace, (an IPU army press officer) were also both cleared of wrongdoing. Saville believed that the information Tugwell and Wallace released through the media was not down to any deliberate attempt to deceive the public but rather due to much of the inaccurate information Tugwell had received at the time by various other figures.[69] Major Michael Steele was with MacLellan in the operations room and was in charge of passing on the orders on the day. Saville accepted that Steele could not believe other than that a separation had been achieved between rioters and marchers, because both groups were in different areas.[70]
Reporting on the findings of the Saville Inquiry in the House of Commons, the British Prime Minister David Cameron said:
"Mr Speaker, I am deeply patriotic. I never want to believe anything bad about our country. I never want to call into question the behaviour of our soldiers and our army, who I believe to be the finest in the world. And I have seen for myself the very difficult and dangerous circumstances in which we ask our soldiers to serve. But the conclusions of this report are absolutely clear. There is no doubt, there is nothing equivocal, there are no ambiguities. What happened on Bloody Sunday was both unjustified and unjustifiable. It was wrong."[71]
Harold Wilson, then the Leader of the Opposition in the House of Commons, reiterated his belief that a united Ireland was the only possible solution to Northern Ireland's Troubles. William Craig, then Stormont Home Affairs Minister, suggested that the west bank of Derry should be ceded to the Republic of Ireland.
When it was deployed on duty in Northern Ireland, the British Army was welcomed by Roman Catholics as a neutral force there to protect them from Protestant mobs, the Royal Ulster Constabulary (RUC) and the B-Specials.[72] After Bloody Sunday many Catholics turned on the British army, seeing it no longer as their protector but as their enemy. Young nationalists became increasingly attracted to violent republican groups. With the Official IRA and Official Sinn Féin having moved away from mainstream Irish republicanism towards Marxism, the Provisional IRA began to win the support of newly radicalised, disaffected young people.
In the following twenty years, the Provisional Irish Republican Army and other smaller republican groups such as the Irish National Liberation Army (INLA) mounted an armed campaign against the British, by which they meant the RUC, the British Army, the Ulster Defence Regiment (UDR) of the British Army (and, according to their critics, the Protestant and unionist establishment). With rival paramilitary organisations appearing in both the nationalist/republican and Irish unionist/Ulster loyalist communities (the Ulster Defence Association, Ulster Volunteer Force (UVF), etc. on the loyalist side), the Troubles cost the lives of thousands of people. Incidents included the killing of three members of a pop band, the Miami Showband, by a gang including members of the UVF who were also members of the local army regiment, the UDR, and in uniform at the time,[73] and the killing by the Provisionals of eighteen members of the Parachute Regiment in the Warrenpoint Ambush — seen by some[who?] as revenge for Bloody Sunday.
With the official cessation of violence by some of the major paramilitary organisations and the creation of the power-sharing executive at Stormont in Belfast under the 1998 Good Friday Agreement, the Saville Inquiry's re-examination of the events of that day is widely hoped to provide a thorough account of the events of Bloody Sunday.
In his speech to the House of Commons on the Inquiry, British Prime Minister David Cameron stated: "These are shocking conclusions to read and shocking words to have to say. But you do not defend the British Army by defending the indefensible."[74] He acknowledged that all those who died were unarmed when they were killed by British soldiers, and that a British soldier had fired the first shot at civilians. He also said that this was not a premeditated action, though "there was no point in trying to soften or equivocate" as "what happened should never, ever have happened". Cameron then apologised on behalf of the British Government by saying he was "deeply sorry".
A survey conducted by Angus Reid Public Opinion in June 2010 found that 61 per cent of Britons and 70 per cent of Northern Irish agreed with Cameron's apology for the Bloody Sunday events.[75]
Stephen Pollard, solicitor representing several of the soldiers, said on 15 June 2010 that Saville had cherry-picked the evidence and did not have justification for his findings.[76]
In 2012 an actively serving British army soldier from Belfast was charged with inciting hatred by a surviving relative of the deceased, due to their online use of social media to promote sectarian slogans about the killings while featuring banners of the Parachute Regiment logo.[77]
In January 2013, shortly before the annual Bloody Sunday remembrance march, Parachute Regiment flags appeared in the loyalist Fountain, Waterside and Drumahoe areas of Derry. The display of the flags was heavily criticised by nationalist politicians and relatives of the Bloody Sunday dead.[78] The Ministry of Defence also condemned the flying of the flags.[79] In the run up to the loyalist marching season in 2013 the flag of the Parachute Regiment appeared alongside other loyalist flags in other parts of Northern Ireland. In 2014 loyalists in Cookstown erected the flags in opposition, close to the route of a St.Patrick's Day parade in the town.[80]
Paul McCartney (who is of Irish descent)[81] recorded the first song in response only two days after the incident. The single entitled "Give Ireland Back to the Irish", expressed his views on the matter. It was one of a few McCartney solo songs to be banned by the BBC.[82]
The John Lennon album Some Time in New York City features a song entitled "Sunday Bloody Sunday", inspired by the incident, as well as the song "The Luck of the Irish", which dealt more with the Irish conflict in general. Lennon, who was of Irish descent, also spoke at a protest in New York in support of the victims and families of Bloody Sunday.[83]
The incident has been commemorated by Irish band, U2, in their 1983 protest song "Sunday Bloody Sunday".[84]
The Roy Harper song "All Ireland" from the album Lifemask, written in the days following the incident, is critical of the military but takes a long term view with regard to a solution. In Harper's book (The Passions Of Great Fortune), his comment on the song ends "…there must always be some hope that the children of 'Bloody Sunday', on both sides, can grow into some wisdom".
Black Sabbath's Geezer Butler (also of Irish descent) wrote the lyrics to the Black Sabbath song "Sabbath Bloody Sabbath" on the album of the same name in 1973. Butler stated, "…the Sunday Bloody Sunday thing had just happened in Ireland, when the British troops opened fire on the Irish demonstrators… So I came up with the title 'Sabbath Bloody Sabbath', and sort of put it in how the band was feeling at the time, getting away from management, mixed with the state Ireland was in."[85]
Christy Moore's song "Minds Locked Shut" on the album Graffiti Tongue is all about the events of the day, and names the dead civilians.[86]
The Celtic metal band Cruachan addressed the incident in a song "Bloody Sunday" from their 2004 album Folk-Lore.[87]
The events of the day have been dramatised in two 2002 television films, Bloody Sunday (starring James Nesbitt) and Sunday by Jimmy McGovern.[84]
Brian Friel's 1973 play The Freedom of the City deals with the incident from the viewpoint of three civilians.[84]
Irish poet Thomas Kinsella's 1972 poem Butcher's Dozen is a satirical and angry response to the Widgery Tribunal and the events of Bloody Sunday.
Irish poet Seamus Heaney's Casualty (published in Field Work, 1981) criticizes Britain for the death of his friend.
Willie Doherty, a Derry-born artist, has amassed a large body of work which addresses the troubles in Northern Ireland. "30 January 1972" deals specifically with the events of Bloody Sunday.[84]
In mid-2005, the play Bloody Sunday: Scenes from the Saville Inquiry, a dramatisation based on the Saville Inquiry, opened in London, and subsequently travelled to Derry and Dublin.[88][89] The writer, journalist Richard Norton-Taylor, distilled four years of evidence into two hours of stage performance by Tricycle Theatre. The play received glowing reviews in all the British broadsheets, including The Times: "The Tricycle's latest recreation of a major inquiry is its most devastating"; The Daily Telegraph: "I can't praise this enthralling production too highly… exceptionally gripping courtroom drama"; and The Independent: "A necessary triumph".[90]
Swedish troubadour Fred Åkerström wrote a song called "Den 30/1-72" about the incident.
In October 2010, T with the Maggies released the song Domhnach na Fola (Irish for Bloody Sunday), written by Mairéad Ní Mhaonaigh and Tríona Ní Dhomhnaill on their debut album.

Grumpy Old Fan | Living long, prospering
Because we live in an age of reboots, revamps, retcons and relaunches, by now we know the issues involved. Mostly they boil down to a balancing test: How faithful is the new material to the established work, and how compelling is it otherwise?
Of course, corporate-controlled superhero comics have had more than their share of reboots, revamps, retcons and relaunches, in all shapes and sizes, going back at least as far as the first Superboy stories. I'm not here today to dissect any particular one. Instead, the calendar gives me the chance to talk about one of the most successful sequel series in sci-fi history.
This week marks the 25th anniversary of Star Trek: The Next Generation. (It aired on different days in syndication, so I saw it first on Tuesday, Sept. 29, 1987.) For many fans, TNG was the gateway into an ever-expanding 24th century. Three more sequel/spinoff series followed, as well as four movies featuring the TNG cast, such that the saga of Jean-Luc Picard and his intrepid crew spanned 15 years, including seven TV seasons.

Legislating priorities: like where people pee

Match Preview
Fitness boost for Baggies West Brom will welcome back a trio of players in skipper Chris Brunt, on-loan striker Romelu Lukaku and left-back Goran Popov for the home Barclays Premier League clash with Swansea tomorrow. Midfielder Brunt has recovered from the ankle injury which kept him out of the 1-0 defeat at Chelsea last weekend while Lukaku was ineligible to play against his parent club. Popov has served a three-game ban for his red card after spitting at Tottenham defender Kyle Walker. Striker Shane Long is the Baggies main injury worry with a recurrence of an ankle injury. Steve Clarke has challenged his side to ensure the season does not fizzle out and also to strive to emulate the Capital One Cup success of Swansea during the 2013-2014 campaign. The Baggies and the Swans have both occupied a spot in the top half of the Barclays Premier League for most of the campaign and are currently only separated by goal difference. But Michael Laudrup's side have earned most of the plaudits for their cup triumph and Clarke feels it is a realistic goal for Albion to try to achieve next season. He said: "We've been neck and neck all season with Swansea in the league. They also managed to put together a cup run. We had hoped we would do so this year, but didn't manage to do it. "Hopefully that will give us a target for next year because you have seen the sort of accolades Swansea have received. "They get all the headlines and deservedly so, because they have managed to win one of the few domestic trophies around - and that's what we have to aim for here at Albion." Midfielder Kemy Agustien will miss Swansea's trip to West Brom after suffering a thigh injury. The Dutchman joins defender Chico Flores on the sidelines, as the Spaniard is still a few weeks away from returning from ruptured ankle ligaments. Garry Monk deputised for Flores against Newcastle last weekend, while manager Michael Laudrup must mull over whether to again start with Pablo Hernandez, Nathan Dyer and Wayne Routledge in behind top scorer Michu. Wayne Routledge believes West Brom goalkeeper Ben Foster more than deserves an England recall as Swansea prepare to face the Baggies at The Hawthorns. Foster recently ended his self-imposed international exile, two years after calling time on his England career, and is set to earn a place in Roy Hodgson's squad for the upcoming World Cup qualifiers against Montenegro and San Marino. Foster's recent performances for the Baggies have been excellent and he is even being tipped in some quarters to usurp Manchester City's Joe Hart as England's number one. Routledge knows just how big a barrier the former Manchester United and Birmingham man will be to Swansea's hopes of victory. He said: "He is a very good keeper, some of the saves he made against Chelsea the other day were just world class. "He is more than capable of performances like that and he is up there with the best, he is a top quality goalkeeper. "If he wants to go back to play for England he more than deserves a place in that squad. "We know it is going to be very tough this weekend. They have played some good football at home, we got a few early goals when we beat them here but this will be very different. "We are in a battle against each other in the league, so it would be nice to come away with something."

Baggies sink Swans
West Brom maintained their push for a European spot but needed an own goal from Swansea midfielder Jonathan de Guzman to seal a 2-1 victory in the Barclays Premier League clash at The Hawthorns.
Capital One Cup winners Swansea started in impressive style and deserved to go ahead through former West Brom striker Luke Moore's header.
Lukaku equalised with his 13th goal of the campaign before the decider from De Guzman but the visitors had a late effort from substitute Roland Lamah harshly ruled out for offside.
Lukaku could afford the luxury of having a penalty saved by Swans keeper Michel Vorm when the score was 1-1 as Albion secured their third win in the last four games.
The on-loan Chelsea player again impressed with his pace and power in the lone striker role.
His performances must surely be giving his parent club food for thought in deciding whether to recall him for next season or allow him to go back out on loan.
But even he was eclipsed by another excellent performance in the centre of the park by James Morrison, who pulled the strings to telling effect.
Swansea started in confident fashion and Michu missed an early opportunity to break the deadlock.
Pablo Hernandez's right-wing cross dropped invitingly for Swansea's 19-goal leading scorer inside the danger area but he sent his shot over the bar.
Albion right-back Billy Jones brought down Wayne Routledge 20 yards out but de Guzman curled his free-kick past the post.
Michu squandered another golden opportunity after 19 minutes after a typical free-flowing move.
Good link-up play by Hernandez and Luke Moore carved the opening for Michu but he stabbed his shot wide with only Ben Foster to beat.
It came as no surprise when Moore celebrated his first start since Boxing Day by opening the scoring against his former club.
Moore got in front of his marker to glance his header from De Guzman's corner past Foster into the far corner of the net.
But Albion hit back and Lukaku levelled after 40 minutes with his 13th goal of the campaign.
Graham Dorrans threaded a low ball towards the near post and Lukaku was first to react in steering the ball past Vorm.
Jones was booked for bringing down Michu although Albion fans booed the Swansea player after believing he had dived.
Albion ended the first half on top and Vorm parried a fierce volley from Morrison.
Lukaku was prominent at the start of the second period and he shot wide after a mistake by Garry Monk had allowed him a free run at goal.
The Belgium international then teed up a chance for Chris Brunt, whose shot was saved by Vorm.
But he blotted his copybook after Albion were awarded a 56th-minute penalty for a challenge on Morrison by Routledge just inside the box.
Up stepped Lukaku to take the spot-kick but Vorm was equal to his low drive away to his right and was able to save.
The Baggies were not to be denied and an own goal from De Guzman put them ahead four minutes later.
Gareth McAuley's header from a Brunt corner was cleared off the line by Angel Rangel but rebounded back off De Guzman into the net.
Dorrans had a fierce drive deflected wide as Albion looked to extend their advantage.
Then Lukaku was just off target after creating space inside the Swansea box before being substituted to a standing ovation with nine minutes left.
Swansea substitute Lamah had the ball in the net in the 87th minute.
But it was ruled out for offside although the ball appeared to hit home defender McAuley before rebounding into his path.

My great-grandfather used to keep a pencil or pen in the pocket of his overalls, leaning over from his chair to scratch notes in the margins of the patterned wallpaper in his home. Used to drive Great-Grandma Lemons crazy, but it was always fun to walk around the house and see what he'd scratched down.
