I'm too tired to write a separate article but one additional quote from the coppers who interviewed us: "95% of people we stop under this legislation aren't terrorists". This shouldn't make people afraid of travelling to Copenhagen - or any other international mobilisation - but any travel plans should take this into consideration.
UK border police (Kent Constabulary) used anti-terrorist legislation to prevent a British climate change activist from crossing over into mainland Europe where he planned to take part in events surrounding the forthcoming United Nations summit in Denmark.
Chris Kitchen, a 31-year-old office worker, said he feared his treatment by police could mark the start of a clampdown on protesters, hundreds of whom are planning to travel to Copenhagen for the climate change talks in December.
Tonight he will make a second attempt to reach Denmark, where he plans to take part in discussions organised by a network of protest groups coming together under the banner Climate Justice Action.
He said he was prevented from crossing the border yesterday at about 5pm, when the coach he was travelling on stopped at the Folkestone terminal of the Channel tunnel.
"On our second try to get to Copenhagen we we're reminded that we were relatively lucky, when 2 "Sans Papiers" were removed from our coach at 3.00am - probably to a German Detention Centre"
Kitchen said police officers boarded the coach and, after checking all passengers' passports, took him and another climate activist to be interviewed under schedule 7 of the Terrorism Act 2000, a clause which enables border officials to stop and search individuals to determine if they are connected to terrorism.
The passports were not initially scanned, Kitchen said, suggesting the officials knew his name and had planned to remove him from the coach before they boarded. During his interview, he was asked questions about his family, work and past political activity. The police also asked him what he intended to do in Copenhagen.
When Kitchen said that anti-terrorist legislation does not apply to environmental activists, he said the officer replied that terrorism "could mean a lot of things". By the time his 30-minute interview had concluded, Kitchen's coach had gone.
Police are understood to be monitoring protesters on a number of databases, some of which highlight individuals when they pass through secure areas, such as ports.

Come Grow with Us!
As we come up on the end of the year and the beginning of a new one it is always pretty standard to look back over the past year and relive some memories. Here at Once A Month Mom it has been a crazy fun year. The blog has grown so much this past year. Can you believe that a year ago today we didn't have anything but a Traditional menu? Yep, the first specialty menu wasn't added until January 1, 2011 and that was the diet menu. All the rest were added in May and beyond. I can hardly believe it myself.
The good in that is that I have added a tremendous team of individuals, and now friends, to Once A Month Mom making it a fun and exciting place to spend my time. Which brings me to the purpose of this post. We are *sort of* in a growth spurt again. Sort of.
There are various times of the year when I really feel like we need to add to our staff. We also are always on the lookout for great readers/writers who have an interest in joining our team. And occasionally, life happens and we need to replace a writer. So we come to you, because the best Once A Month Mom contributing writers are readers themselves!
If you have ever been interested in working on a blog that you didn't have to do all the start-up work for, you like creating menus and you like interacting with a team of adults, we would love to learn more about you. We have some immediate needs on the staff as well as some more long-range needs as well. So no matter your interest level, let us know. Here is how this works:
- Email us and we will respond to you with details of writing position(s) as well as an application.
- Read over the details and fill out the application, if still interested.
- Wait for an update from us in early January 2012 as to whether or not we have a need in your interest area or whether we are waiting until later in the year.
It is just that easy! We hope that you will consider joining us and no matter what, look forward to getting to know you in the new year.

I am interested in learning more about the writing opprotunities in the coming year.
Thank You,

Your Advent:
The splendor of heaven left behind,
now surrounded by dirt and cow excrement.
Shrouds of glory abandoned
for strips of cloth
wrapped around you by a new mother
after she carefully wiped away vernix and after-birth.
Cries of "peace on earth" echoed across the hills
and in the ears of the lowliest;
the only announcement of your arrival.
Beauty for filth
Majesty for squalor
Grandeur for obscurity
All that we might celebrate our own advent.

Peugeot aids GDC Delivery Team expertise
03 June 2011
As part of the Graduate Development Centre Delivery Team's commitment to be as expert and informed as possible when it comes to understanding how employers recruit graduates, GDC Careers Adviser Laura Aldridge recently observed an employer assessment centre in action when she attended Peugeot's Assessment Centre in Coventry.
Peugeot were recruiting for an industrial placement vacancy and Laura observed the whole assessment process which candidates have to undergo and had the chance to watch a group exercise and a series of interviews. She also received a valuable insight into how employers assess and evaluate applicants against strict criteria.
Laura commented: "My observation of the Peugeot Assessment Centre demonstrated to me just how rigorous the selection process is which students and graduates have to go through to be successful in gaining a job or placement with a large company. It emphasises the need for students to be prepared to give evidence of their strengths as the interviewers used scenario based questions which required candidates to give an example of when he or she had used a particular skill.
"This demonstrates the importance of students undertaking the World of Work Skills Certificate as the self-awareness part of the certificate requires students to reflect on their skills and areas of development."
GDC Careers Advisers and Employability Advisers have attended many similar assessment centres and careers days across a variety of sectors to gather essential up to date intelligence on the graduate recruitment process to disseminate to students and staff. For more information contact the GDC on 0151 231 8099 or email email@example.com

Rolo apo kima (Greek meatloaf)
Sunday, 23 May 2010 09:33
This tradtional Greek meatloaf is a tasty and economical winter family dish, stuffed with boiled eggs and topped with a simple but rich tomato and garlic sauce. The classic version isn't flavoured with spices or herbs, relying on basic seasonings and the tomato sauce for impact.
As an option I also like to add some grated cheese to the top and veer away from the original version by adding bacon or ham before rolling up.
The roll up and bake in paper technique (pictured below) is very useful for holding a meatloaf together as obviously using breadcrumbs isn't a good low carb choice.
- 750gm minced beef
- 1 egg
- 1 medium onion – finely chopped
- Salt & black pepper
- 1T chopped parsley
- 50ml olive oil
- ½ cup red wine
- 3-4 hardboiled & peeled eggs
- 350gm tomatoes – canned
- 3 cloves of garlic - crushed
- 50ml olive oil
- 100ml water (adjust to suit)
- For the MEATLOAF:
- Preheat the oven to 180º C
- Mix together well the mince, egg, onion, salt and pepper, wine and 100ml of the oil
- Lie a large piece of greaseproof paper down on the bench
- Spread the mixture on half paper then fold the other half over the mixture and flatten to make rectangle broad enough to wrap around the eggs
- Peel back the paper and lay the eggs, end to end, along the middle of the meat mixture (if adding the ham or bacon as I do, then do so before placing the eggs on the mix)
- Roll up the paper from the end the mixture is on, folding the over the eggs and making a roll (like a swiss roll)
- Seal ends
- Wrap the rest of the paper around and lightly oil the wrapping
- Lay in baking dish (with sides to hold sauce)
- Cook for 30 minutes then remove the paper
- Baste with oil and put back in to brown for 15-20 minutes
- For the SAUCE:
- Cook the tomatoes, garlic, remaining oil, 1/3 cup of water, salt & pepper together for 10 minutes
- Sieve or use a hand blender to mix until smooth
- Pour over the meatloaf, return to oven for further 20-30 minutes
- Serve in thick slices
- Line meat mix with bacon or ham before placing eggs on top & rolling up
- Top with cheese 10 mins before removing from oven

I never installed sysvinit considering that I am trying to replace it (with minor success). So, It seems that I still might be dependant on sysvinit. I will try installing sysvinit's halt program, removing /sbin/shutdown and linking shutdown to /sbin/halt. -- Kevin Day

Victoria County officials are looking at a $150,000 marketing campaign to improve the reputation at Victoria Regional Airport.
Since Sun Air International started flying out of Victoria in October 2012, a constant string of maintenance issues, canceled flights, baggage issues and ticketing problems have doomed the airport.
Unless the number of departing passengers increases, the airport could face losing federal funding, a consequence that would effectively end commercial air service in Victoria.
With a new carrier anticipated to start in October, Victoria County commissioners voted Monday to commit $50,000 to Airport Manager Jason Milewski's proposed campaign to show off the changes.
As word spreads of the new carrier, travelers are already rethinking plans to fly out of Victoria.
Despite Brad Bishop's bad experience with Sun Air two summers ago, he said he would be willing to give a new carrier a try.
After flying into Houston from Mexico, his flight back to Victoria was canceled. He ended up having to take a two-hour cab ride back home.
"I'm sure I'll end up flying out of Victoria again," Bishop, 22, of Victoria, said.
Milewski will submit an application Wednesday for a $100,000 federal grant he hopes will cover two-thirds the cost of the marketing plan aimed at promoting the improved service a new carrier is bringing to Victoria.
"We need to do a massive marketing campaign to let our public know there are significant changes at the airport," Milewski said.
The new carrier, Public Charters, will start offering service Oct. 1 to Austin and Dallas - two of the busiest airports in a five-state region, including Arkansas, Louisiana, New Mexico, Oklahoma and Texas.
Since Pinnacle Airlines Corp., which operated Continental and later United flights from Victoria, declared bankruptcy in April 2012, Victoria Regional has struggled to live up to its federal contract with the Essential Air Service program. The program helps smaller communities maintain an airline.
"I don't want to beat a dead horse," Milewski said. "Without any question, it's clear that the level of service we're offering is not meeting the demand."
To continue being in the Essential Air Service program, the airport needs an average of 10 passengers a day and subsidies of no more than $200 per passenger.
While airports across the southwest region saw an average 2 percent increase in passengers, Victoria saw a 45 percent drop from 2012 to 2013.
Victoria is second-to-last in passenger numbers for the 2013 calendar year and is above the subsidy cap, Milewski said.
"If our decline in passenger counts were reflective of our local or regional economy, I wouldn't be here today trying to pursue this," Milewski said. "More and more people are flying, and the economy is getting better in our region."
County Commissioner Danny Garcia said it's unclear if the marketing campaign for the new carrier will show a return on investment.
"It's really a shot in the dark for us," he said. "But if Victoria County is going to continue to grow ... we have to provide that type of service, which is a good airline."
The Small Community Air Service Development Grant has $7 million in its budget this year and typically funds about 10 projects, Milewski said.
"It's strictly used for marketing, which is exactly what we need it for," Milewski said.
County Judge Don Pozzi said he supports the airport manager's recommendation.
Without the grant, the airport would still need the marketing campaign and likely $50,000 from the county, Pozzi said.
Commissioner Kevin Janak applauded Milewski's efforts.
"We need to spend at least that amount of money to inform the public that this is a new look," Janak said.
If passenger counts don't improve, the next move is to seek a waiver from the Department of Transportation, Milewski said.
Commissioner Gary Burns said the airport needs to make a drastic change.
Burns proposed making the commitment as a loan to the airport, which will be repaid to the county.
Commissioners did not discuss a timeline for repayment.
Milewski said if the grant is approved, he will look at hiring a marketing firm to take the lead.
"We will lose all air service completely if we don't do something," Milewski said, later adding, "This is our best shot."

Maria published her monthly counts and analysis of OpenSim growth yesterday and she counts a total of 22,651 OpenSim regions and these include OSGrid, and public and private grids that report their numbers. her totals will always be less than all deployed OpenSim regions because not everyone reports their numbers
22,651 regions is a new high for OpenSim and approaches Second Life's 23,619 private estates and isn't too shabby compared to SL's total sims of 30,840
while you can't compare an OpenSim region to a Second Life sim as exact equals, you also can't say that OpenSim is small from a land perspective. of course user accounts are still tiny for OpenSim compared to what SL has. they claim 10,000 signups per day but what's the value in that number? i have 33,000 Twitter followers and what does that prove? maybe that i am OCD but as far as success goes, sims is a meaningful number since they represents the main revenue stream for Linden Lab
OpenSim can no longer be seen as a second-rate alternative to Second Life
people are showing the viability of OpenSim with where they decide to set up home, shops, and clubs. this does not mean Second Life is dead, it just means that equal or better options are available
Second Life lost over 1,000 private sims in the last year which could be as much as 3 to 3.5 million dollars per year (a loss of about 5% of LL's annual revenue). some of that is flat-out attrition – people leaving that don't want to do virtual world stuff, but some of that are people choosing something else that meets or exceeds their needs
Maria points out that 391 private sims inSL poofed last month and i'd say a good number of those were from the "no setup fee" special LL did October 21-23 (gee, i'd like the setup fees from my 19 sims refunded! i could buy a car!). the first month's tier would have started on November 21-23 and that $295 is a big chunk of change to come up with!
so what does this mean?
for OpenSim it means we will likely see the number of regions surpass those in Second Life in 2012
overall, it means that virtual worlds are doing well and becoming more widely adopted. despite the small drop inSL sims, the growth of virtual worlds when you combine Second Life with OpenSim is significant with a total of over 53,000 sims/regions

Was in a grocery store today in Northern Arkansas and noticed a store employee stocking shelves. On his shirt was fastened a campaign style button that proclaimed "I support Israel." Being on a first name basis with this fellow I couldn't control my curiosity and asked what the significance of the button was. He said the United States is really screwing up by not supporting the country of Israel. I asked if the billions we already give them was not enough. He said the Obama administration has turned their back on the little country that likes to keep the shite stirred up. Of course I disagreed and said they were lucky to even have a country. He said biblical prophecy predicted this abandonment and that it was a sign of the times. I told him I could think of better things to do with our taxpayer dollars.
It is surprising that Gentiles in Northern Arkansas would don buttons professing their allegiance to a small country controlled by Judaism and Islam.
Retard. Why the hell do Americans think they're the world police anyway?
It amazes me how into this issue some people get even when they have no apparent connection to the nation or the issues it faces, and do not get similarly excited by domestic issues or similar foreign affairs issues.
I've never considered myself well enough informed to have a meaningful opinion on the issue. As much as I'd like to know more, there are countless other topics which I would like to study as well. I guess we all pick out pet issues and do the best we can. Israel is not one of mine.
Maybe the store guy would like to listen to this guy. Then again maybe not.
In addition to the Christian and Jewish zealots, there is also a lot of money involved, and there are geo-political issues at stake. A huge chunk of US aid to Israel is kicked back to US defense industries. The zealots win, the military-industrial-complex wins, and the US can use Israel as a forward base in the Middle East for purposes of natural resource control. Unfortunately, everybody else loses.
i dont get the prophecy. how can free will exist if all that stuff is suppose to happen? i mean somebody is not gonna help but to do the things that their god has planned for them to do, so free will cannot exist. jeez wish christians used logic for once
It is surprising that Gentiles in Northern Arkansas would don buttons professing their allegiance to a small country controlled by Judaism and Islam.
@ Ed - I'm not surprised. Back in the 70's when I was a member of a Christian church, Israel was always spoken about in glowing terms though I never really comprehended why, other than somehow the existence of the country is what God wanted since Jewish people were his favorite for some unknown reason, and it had something to do with ushering in the second coming which the sooner the better as far as most Christians were concerned even though they believed a Jewish person would not go to heaven if they did not believe in Jesus. O_o
As far as do I support Israel, I have not decided.
"We can avoid death, but only because two-thirds of the Jews of Israel will inevitably die in a future holocaust. America must therefore support the nation of Israel in order to keep the Israelis alive until after the Rapture."
Fundamentalist Christians see the state of Israel playing a huge role in the end times. They don't love the Jews. They think there will be another holocaust and, of course, the Jews will be doing the backstroke in a sea of lava once Jesus returns in pissed off mode. Meanwhile the faithful Christians will be rising up into the sky (the rapture) where Jesus will be handing out space suits in preparation for taking them to Heaven, which fundamentalists believe is a physical world for physical humans, not a spiritual place where souls float around.

Osteopathic Manipulative Medicine - OMM
Osteopathic manipulative medicine, or OMM, is hands-on care, performed by an osteopathic medical doctor. It involves using the hands to diagnose, treat, and prevent illness or injury. Using OMM, your osteopathic physician (D.O.) will move your muscles and joints using techniques including stretching, gentle pressure and resistance. OMMs range from light pressure on the soft tissues to high-velocity thrusts on the joints.
Osteopathy also pioneered the techniques that have become known as craniosacral therapy, which is now practiced in a variety of different disciplines. Craniosacral therapy is the gentle manipulation of the bones of the skull. This therapy can result in a restoration of balance to the whole system.

How to Wirelessly Trigger Your Flash with your Canon 7D
// January 5th, 2011 // 19 Comments » // Instructables, Photo
Well, I told Troy I'd show him how to get his 7D to activate his flash without any extra special equipment, but then thought it would make a good blog post. So here is an instructable: How to wirelessly trigger your flash with your Canon 7D.
You see, the 7D is a very cool camera because it comes with the ability to trigger Canon speedlite flashes remotely. Most cameras require an external attachment to send a radio signal to the flashes, but not the 7D. So long as you are within sight of your flash, the 7D will send an infra red signal to the flash telling it to fire.
Okay, first things first. Let's tell the Canon7D to send that signal.
1: Press the Menu Button
2: Scroll to "Built In Flash func." followed by "Flash Control" and hit "Set"
3: Scroll Down to Wireless Function and hit "Set"
4: Select the middle option (external flash alone) and press "Set"
5: Go to your flash and HOLD the Zoom button until the screen shows this
6: Cycle through until you have the camera on "Slave" then press "Set"
7: With your camera powered on, press this button to pop up the flash
The camera and flash default to ETTL mode, which is essentially "Auto Flash." It detects the ambient light around, and adjusts the flash's power to fire accordingly. This is by far the easiest way to use your flash and a good place to start. But, if you want more control over it, it's time to move over to manual mode. With the wireless function in the 7D, you can make all the adjustments from the camera itself which is a huge time saver.
Back in the Menu -> Flash settings, select the first option
Well there ya have it. If you have more than one ETTL enabled flash, you can control up to three groups (I believe) from the camera itself. There are limitations to this system (such as if you place the flash around a corner or wall into a different room) but in general it's very handy. Play around with the menu settings and you'll see how separate flashes can be grouped to different channels to be controlled separately from each other. Good luck, and send me a link to see your new off-camera flash shots!

Demand-side platform
A demand-side platform (DSP) is a system that allows buyers of digital advertising inventory to manage multiple ad exchange and data exchange accounts through one interface. Real-time bidding for displaying online ads takes place within the ad exchanges, and by utilizing a DSP, marketers can manage their bids for the banners and the pricing for the data that they are layering on to target their audiences. Much like Paid Search, using DSPs allows users to optimize based on set Key Performance Indicators such as effective Cost per Click (eCPC), and effective Cost per Action (eCPA).
DSPs are unique because they incorporate many of the facets previously offered by advertising networks, such as wide access to inventory and vertical and lateral targeting, with the ability to serve ads, real-time bid on ads, track the ads, and optimize. This is all kept within one interface which creates a unique opportunity for advertisers to truly control and maximize the impact of their ads. The sophistication of the level of detail that can be tracked by DSPs is increasing, including frequency information, multiple forms of rich media ads, and some video metrics. Many third parties are integrating with DSPs to provide better tracking.

Latest update : 2014-02-11
Protests against Internet law in Turkey
In this edition: Turkish web users protest against new Internet legislation; concerns over a social media drinking game; and a high-lining attempt between two hot air balloons.
Turkish riot police fired water cannons and tear gas at demonstrators who retaliated by throwing fireworks and stones. Hundreds gathered in Istanbul on Saturday to protest against new legislation approved by parliament which will tighten government controls over the Internet.
Turkish web users have taken to social networks in their droves, posting under the hashtag "Internet Censorship in Turkey", condemning the measures as an assault on freedom of expression and access to information, The main concerns are that it gives a government agency the authority to block websites without seeking a court order first, and forces Internet providers to store web users` data for two years and make it available to the authorities.
Many feel the bill reflects the government`s unease over social media, which played a pivotal role in last year`s anti-government protests. But it also illustrates the authorities desire to stifle the government corruption scandal. There have been a number of online leaks over the past few weeks implicating government figures and allies. This recording posted to YouTube is allegedly a telephone conversation between the Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan`s daughter and a property developer, in which she is negotiating two villas in exchange for government favours.
The new laws mean the government will be able to block access to this type of document more quickly. The legislation has not yet been approved by the president Abdullah Gul, and critics of the bill are urging him not to ratify it.
"NekNomination" is a new online craze in English speaking countries that has social media users swallow or "neck" an alcoholic drink in one go, often in unusual locations and situations, post the video online, and then nominate two others to do the same within the next 24 hours.
It is believed the online drinking game began on Facebook in Australia early January. And to amuse or impress fellow players, some have put themselves in dangerous situations. This person for example decided to swallow copious amounts of alcohol in a swimming pool. Its risky behaviour like this that has raised strong concerns online.
"NekNomination" has been blamed for the deaths of two young Irish men, and critics of the craze have been campaigning on social networks urging people to stop playing the game. Over the past couple of days, over 60 000 web users have joined the "Stop Nek Nominate" Facebook page, appealing to players not to nominate others in order to break the chain.
This is exactly what South African web user Brent Lindeque set out to do by changing the aim of the game and turn it into something positive to do a "nice nomination" , something kind and then challenge two others to do the same. The idea is proving highly popular on social media platforms, with many joining the new movement and urging their network of contacts to follow suit.
Weary of questions from friends and family about when she was going to married, American photographer Suzanne Heintz embarked on her "Life Once Removed" project. She purchased two mannequins, one male adult and one female child and travelled all over the world, staging pictures with them as if they were her family. It's a tongue in cheek look at people`s notions of what a successful happy life should look like and the conventions of American society. You can check out the entire collection on the artist`s website.
Bruce Lee using an orange as a punch bag, or taking out his frustration on a cereal box, Spiderman brought down by a fly swatter, and the joker playing a prank on an unsuspecting stranger… these are just some of the fantastic scenarios using toy action figures put together by a Russian artist who goes under the online pseudonym VSE OK.
A photo taken in the style of a "selfie" but taken with your partner, a friend, a family member, a work colleague … this is the "couplie" and its trending on social networks… it began to take off after Australian singer Kylie Minogue posted a couplie online back in December. And with Valentine`s day coming up on Friday, we can prepare ourselves for an avalanche of couplies…
As we can see in this video, French daredevils, The Skyliners, set up a high wire between two hot air balloons and then attempted to walk it… they came very close but unfortunately didn`t manage it on this occasion. But it hasn`t put them off and they`re going to try again very soon. Have a look at their first attempt in their video "The Balloon Highline", on video sharing platform Vimeo.

Some residents of Milwaukee's east side fear that a dognapper may be on the loose, snatching pets out of their backyards.
WISN 12 News reporter Kent Wainscott investigated the clues they may have discovered in a popular online marketplace.
It's been a week since Eric Nelson's three dogs went out into his enclosed, electronically fenced backyard, but only two returned.
"I'm absolutely positive that someone took her from our backyard," Nelson said.
Sydney, a Yorkie-Maltese mix, vanished and friends immediately told Nelson to check Craiglist.
"And we absolutely did that, and we found her. We saw her picture," Nelson said.
Friend Lisa Moy quickly reached out to the seller before the listing was suddenly removed.
"And then she emailed me back again and said, 'No, it's been adopted and that was the last we heard," Moy said.
Nelson started posting reward flyers all around the neighborhood, and that's when he started getting the first clue that this might not be an isolated case.
Maggie Mulligan posted signs for her dog, Rose, identical to her sibling, Moxie.
Rose got out of the yard and disappeared, and Mulligan heard some alarming news from friends.
"I've gotten a few calls about potential listings of Rose on Craigslist, and I die a little each time because you don't know where your dog is," Mulligan said.
The Milwaukee Area Domestic Animal Control Commission said more and more missing dogs are turning up in online marketplaces.
"It's becoming more and more of a problem for people, especially people who leave their dogs alone outside, even in a fenced yard," said Karen Sparapani of MADACC.
She called it a serious problem -- one that Nelson and Mulligan fear may have hit home.
MADACC recommends having pets micro-chipped for identification.
Sydney's owners have turned over the information about the Craigslist posting to Milwaukee police.

The Tribal Colleges Research Grants Program is a competitive grants program intended to assist the 1994 land-grant institutions in conducting agricultural research that addresses high priority concerns of tribal, national, or multistate significance.
Only 1994 land-grant institutions are eligible to receive funds under this program.
Targeted Areas of Support
High priority concerns of tribal, national, or multistate significance.
Funds are awarded on a competitive basis. To be considered for funding, grant applications submitted under this program must certify that the research to be conducted will be performed under a cooperative agreement with at least one 1862 or 1890 land-grant institution. The cooperator requirement does not preclude 1994s from working jointly with each other on projects under this program, as long as the cooperative agreement requirement is met.
The funding for Fiscal Year 2006 is estimated at $1,078,000.
Results and Impacts
The Tribal Colleges Research Grants Program has provided faculty and students at the 1994s with a mechanism for them to engage in research projects of practical value to their tribal communities and national interests. During the short time this program has been in existence, the research has begun to contribute to the resolution of tribal concerns (for example, phytoremediation of soils affected by mining operations, improved dietetics and nutrition, and restoration of native plant communities) and of national concerns (for example, the epidemiology of the mosquito-borne encephalitis, including the highly visible West Nile virus). Additionally, research efforts in such areas as aquaculture and international marketing offer hope for improving the economic basis of Native Americans.

Corlett Letlojane (South Africa)
[March 8, 2011]Corlett Letlojane (South Africa)
Printer-friendly version
The following video of an interview with Corlett Letlojane (South Africa), Executive Director of the Human Rights Institute of South Africa, has been edited for time and content. A transcript of the interview conducted by Ryota Jonen, senior manager of the World Movement, is included.
DemocracyVoices - Corlett Letlojane from World Movement for Democracy on Vimeo.
Corlett: My name is Corlett Letlojane and I work for the Human Rights Institute of South Africa, I am the Executive Director there.
Ryota: Thank you, Corlett. I have three questions for you related to challenges that South African democracy is facing. So the World Movement for Democracy had its Third Assembly in Durban, South Africa, in 2004. South Africa was, back then, celebrating new democracy. But today, it seems to be that South Africa is in a different stage. Can you explain some of the challenges or changes that South African democracy is facing?
Corlett: Yes, definitely 2010 was the year in which we could plow back and show some progress in terms of the structures that the government have installed since 1994 and to assess their stability and to assess their effectiveness. I think it was a time where others wanted to actually place themselves and understand the work of some of the democratic institutes that are set up by the government. And I must say that they haven't done that evaluation. Things have begun to divert, to take a different route, because these institutions, they need resources, they need to run with efficiency, they need to be known by people in civil society, especially people in the rural areas.
Many people are still not aware of the South African Human Rights Commission, although it is now established in all the provinces of South Africa. The problem is that they are placed in city centers so people who are in extremely rural communities find it very, very hard and difficult to access these institutions. They don't have jobs, and transport can also be a problem for them to access these institutions. So the institutions are not effective in terms of reaching out to the people or the people accessing them.
And, also, some of the personnel working in these institutions are coming into the institutions through political affiliation and they have not shown their independence, because the law makes them to function independently without fear, without prejudice, and without bias. So that independence is sometimes very much affected and you don't see them, you know, revealing or exposing mass violations of human rights or corruption.
It will be certain sectors or, opposition, opposition has become the monitor or the watchdog of the government. We've seen opposition do wonderful work exposing many things and because they are having some powers or rights at parliamentary level, they are using they powers very, very effectively.
Ryota: So, how do you explain the reason why these changes are happening, or, the situation that you explained?
Corlett: I'm thinking that first of all, although I have mentioned the positive aspects of the opposition being able to talk and raise up some problems, the South African people have suffered so much during the Apartheid era, they still have a level of mistrust, people don't trust some of the opposition. For example the DA (the Democratic Alliance) is not very much trusted. People still feel that it wants to repeat, you know, the status of Apartheid and people do not want to join some of the opposition. But we have huge, huge numbers of people - I think the number is increasing - no matter what the leading party (ANC) is doing, people are still voting for it.
And also, we have seen something quite disappointing. When the former President of the ANC, Mr. Mbeki, was called off of his position due to some of the internal or external problems that the ruling party perceived, some of it was the way he was pushing the issue of HIV/AIDS, and then the issue of protecting some of the high, prominent officials (like in the police), who were actually associated with some of the criminals who had committed very, very capital crimes, and how he was also dealing with the issue of Zimbabwe. You know, for us it was a critical time for us to play an important role. Also on Sudan, the way South Africa, you know, was projecting itself especially after it obtained that non-permanent member to Chair the Security Council of the UN, many people expected a robust action from this country, with such past record of human rights, stability that has been set up immediately after Apartheid - it was enormous, it was remarkable. So those were the things that civil society was dissatisfied with.
The ANC also had their own internal problems, how Mbeki was called off, and how other parties and other people in the society were promoting the upcoming of the current President. So the way it was not done, it was not done very well. Although there were difficulties, I don't think they demonstrated very good leadership by ousting Mbeki the way they have done because there is more corruption now.
Corruption is worse, actually. The way the officials have run things like tenders, where civil society can participate in and access resources to support the government, there is a lot of corruption. Those cases of corruption, the way they are dealt with, people get redeployed instead of taking serious measures because our country is committed to promoting human rights. And they have a program where they have committed themselves to address the imbalances, the socio-economic imbalances that were created by Apartheid structures. For them it's important to correct them, to correct it, and bring the poor, marginalized communities on par in terms of providing the education, providing the health services, providing job opportunities, and housing. The type of housing that is currently built up, you can see that there is a lot of corruption. So people are not satisfied, it is quite, very, very, disappointing to be honest.
Ryota: To overcome those challenges that you have just mentioned, what are the things that civil society, you, and your colleagues, should be planning?
Corlett: Ok, the civil society is now working in coalition to overcome. There was a death of NGOs, the community based organizations, the paralegals who used to be very vital at community level - they have been wiped out due to low resources and to some joining the government as well.
So donors are also facing other problems in South Africa. Their focus is outside the borders of South Africa where there are important or more critical issues of human rights. So that is a challenge for us.
Now it is important for people to work in coalitions, which we see coming, and by doing so, we are able to work with a united voice. We can advocate more strongly with one united voice. Issues of resources, issues of capacity remain our challenges. And then also educating people, going into communities, forging networks at the international level, forging networks at regional levels, coming to African Commission for example, and doing something at the AU level.
We have ECOSOC (the Economic and Social Council), which is supposed to be the process of civil society. It is very, very weak because it lacks critical and independent voices. We do not want to be posting about because we are brushing around the shoulders of our leaders. We want to lobby them. We want to encourage them to implement the policies, to implement the legislations that the AU itself is committed to implementing. So it becomes very, very critical for us to understand what's going on in the region, to understand what's going on at national level, and to continue advocating for change through enforcement and through education especially in communities that we work in. Thank you.
Ryota: Thank you.

• • Aliases
• • 28 years
June 23rd
• • 6'1" and 173 lbs
Sturdy and well built. Definite arm strength. Muscle built from training more than work.
• • Warrior
• • Personality
Signis has a penchant for rash behavior, and often can be obnoxious in a way that rubs people the wrong way. He thinks face-to-face confrontation is the sort that works best, and is not afraid to speak up when something bothers him. Otherwise, he's pretty friendly, usually eager for a tussle or a test of strength. Signis is boisterous, and dislikes being forgotten. He enjoys the company of people he can laugh with (or at). Sometimes, he smiles a little too wide and laughs a little too loud. Signis is highly superstitious, and wary of ghost and dark type pokemon.
• • History
A soldier from a family of soldiers. When Signis was born, his role was decided for him- not that it was a role he was unhappy with. It's thought that he's adopted many of his father's strong ideals involving justice, though it's more parroting than anything and he's by no means naively buttheaded. He used to have a sibling, but the other boy drowned when he was younger.
• • Speed Boost
Its Speed stat is gradually boosted.
• • Moveset
Ember, Double Kick, Peck, Quick Attack
• • Personality
A swift thinker and an equally swift fighter. Probably the most serious pokemon on the team. Needs to learn to relax a bit, though.
• • Background
Signis' most recent pokemon, yet he will claim she is the most reliable.
• • Iron Fist
Boosts the power of punching moves.
• • Moveset
Mach Punch, Flame Wheel, Will-o-Wisp, Acrobatics
• • Personality
Definitely a silly pokemon. Edwin is a big fan of the jokes and the fun. He enjoys fights as a means of show of strength and play, much like his trainer, though he can be quite competative. This doesn't mean the monkey can't be serious- he's quite chivalrous when it comes to what he deems as weaker pokemon, and will often become concerned for that lot.
• • Background
Edwin was Signis' brother's pokemon- he was too young to really remember the accident, however. He came under Signis' care shortly after. He doesn't seem to care that Signis was never his original trainer.
• • Blaze
Powers up Fire-type moves in a pinch.
• • Moveset
Arm Thrust, Flame Charge, Smog, Rollout
• • Personality
Quite, sullen, often deep in thought. Bart can be sluggish, but that isn't to say that he can't be fast when he needs to be. He will sit there and mock you with a silent grin, and always seems like he knows secrets that other pokemon and people are not privy to.
• • Background
He was Signis' original pokemon, given to the boy when he was able to walk. They've grown up together, and yet seem distant from each other in a way.

Dear GOP Voters,
Looking at the latest Gallup numbers, you could nominate an expired package of processed luncheon meats, and it would sweep the floor with President Obama. In fact, I'd wager that Mr. Bad Bologna would win every state except for Denial — a 56-state sweep.
So when the straw polls or caucus or primary vote comes your way, vote your conscience, not just for whomever you think is most electable…It'll make you feel better the next morning, I promise.
Besides, strategic voting like that is how John Kerry got the nod back in 2004. And he makes the spoiled bologna smell pretty good.

I agree with this. Though I keep hearing that we're overconfident, things could still turn around for Obama, we don't have any strong candidates, on & on – I don't think any of that matters, it'll all shake out in the coming months. But what I see is that few people even like Obama any more, vast numbers actually hate him, and it's so easy to see that he's rigid and unable to do anything to help this economy due to his intransigent idealism coupled with his utter incompetence. He has nothing new to say, and I really believe that he doesn't even care about Americans. He certainly doesn't show that he does, in any way at all. He displays cool aloofness and disdain.
He's going to become more obnoxious as the days go on, more things will come up that he will handle in ham-handed, and sometimes destructive ways. By the time the election arrives things will be even more messed up and voters will be tearing their hair out. The pressure on him will build and he won't handle it well at all. He can't be any other way – it was all a huge sham to begin with. He's not smart or adroit enough to change, he's peaked and now it's downhill. He's going to lose, and lose BIG. I for one will be overjoyed to see Mr. Bad Bologna take over, things could only get better. If Obie managed to win another term, America would be OVER and at that point I would stop hoping. And I think millions of Americans feel exactly the same.

Very true, Barbara. You don't even need to look at policy or ideology; his psychology will do Obama in.
In addition, he has lost something crucial to his electoral success, something that is unrecoverable once gone: *M*A*G*I*C*
I'm having fun, I'm shoving the damn numbers unlike a lot of conservative/libertarian bloggers. Powerline is now plumping Romney while intoning against any "eccentric" candidates who would only be — how to it? — a plain rash on the backside of Republican victory. Screw 'em.

Thank you. I'm still trying to figure out the thinking there: "Let's see… number one legislative agenda item is getting rid of Obamacare, so obviously the best guy to do that would be the guy who unapologetically invented it in the first place and still insists it can work. Really! Well, I guess he knows something about it then. I'll just vote for him."
I mean, I regularly mock some of my friends for voting for Obama because all of this crap was predictable, but it's kinda sad to see the other side trying to match stupid for stupid.

There is a segment of the electorate that is approaching critical mass. They are people, like my wife, who are normally apolitical. They do not like O. They fear him and his czars. And every dirty, nasty insinuation that some Democrat casts in the Tea Party direction inflames them to a degree I have never seen.
As a lad, my older brothers and sisters deflected criticism by saying, "Every knock's a boost". I don't know if it has some history I am not aware of, but it would make a great secret campaign slogan.
Every time that idiot speaks on television, my wife sends $30 to somebody on our side.

I very seriously doubt professional campaigners share our host's confidence.
Anticipating the result of a political campaign is very nearly foolish as anticipating the end of a military campaign. As a reminder, I cite an ancient aphorism: "The enemy always has a vote." That is, they always have an effect on the outcome.

The hard thing to overcome is everyone wants to be able to say they voted for the winner. It gives them some feeling of validation.
The hardest thing to overcome is the GOP Leadership's beaten-dog attitude that allows them to repeatedly snatch defeat from the jaws of victory.

Not to sound sexist, but I think neither Palin nor Bachmann are electable. Palin because of the absolute hatchet job the press did on her, and Bachmann because of the absolute hatchet job the press is starting to do on her.
I'll vote for either one of them in the General, though. They'd be outrageously better than anyone the Dems could possibly field, and Obama couldn't even hold their soiled panties. I'm not fond of Bachmann's rigid religiosity, but I'd hold my nose and hope for the best. I don't think either Palin or Bachmann would try to push a SoCon agenda. They get the larger problems too clearly to get side-tracked by that.

Okay then, vote for someone you think can win. Mind you, you'll have to think like an idiot "independent" to do this. I have a friend who voted for Obama in 2008 because "a Black president will help us." She happens to live in Texas, so I asked her what she thinks of Rick Perry. She said "Who's Rick Perry?" Later she found out who he is and said "He's cute! I think I'll vote for him." So there's your voting guide for 2012.
Look, Nukem, you sound sexist. Women are hatchetable in more ways than men are and you're falling for it. Vote your damn conscience.
August 23, 2011 - 10:44 am Link to this Comment | Reply-
Huh? That's a stupid response. Just because women are "more hatchetable", that doesn't mean I should automatically believe some magic fairy dust will be sprinkled over them and make them more electable, as some sort of compensation. That's the same type of unicorn thinking that got Obama elected. And enough with the slams about Independents. Since you apparently can't get out of lockstep agreement with braindead Republicans and actually think for yourself, you probably shouldn't be judging those of us who apply some critical thinking to a subject.
I'm a big fan of Sarah. I'm a big supporter of the Tea Party. And I'm totally committed to taking power away from the entrenched elites in DC. If voting for Sarah or Michelle in the primaries means we don't see that happening in November, then you bet I'll vote my conscience.

One suspects the Republican Establishment realizes they have as much to lose as Obama.

If they don't have as much to lose, then what's a Tea Party for?

LexisNexis Announces Major Release Of Concordance Evolution
LexisNexis® Legal & Professional ( www.lexisnexis.com), a leading global provider of content and technology solutions, today announced a major new release of Concordance® Evolution, the next generation of the company's fully-installed enterprise review software product for electronic discovery and litigation document management. The new release is completely web-enabled, allowing for efficient implementation and deployment.
"Concordance Evolution delivers what our customers demand in an e-discovery review engine: speed, flexible capacity and an easy-to-use interface," said Steve Ashbacher, vice president of Concordance at LexisNexis Litigation Tools & Professional Services. "It handles e-discovery management for cases of any size, and is specifically designed for large-scale, complex litigation. With the on-premise version of Concordance Evolution, review software and discovery data stay behind the user's firewall and customers have complete control over their litigation data."
Developed in collaboration with various litigation professionals during extensive testing, Concordance Evolution helps law firms, government agencies, litigation service bureaus and application service providers reduce their overall e-discovery cost and boost their litigation workflow productivity, while managing the largest and most complex cases.
This next generation of Concordance Evolution delivers:
- Speed -- Concordance Evolution combines professional insight on relevant language, keywords and terms of art, with the speed of advanced search technology to deliver fast searching, review and more. In real-world testing, the software imported load files of 350 GB (approximately seven million documents) within 24 hours, enabled document-to-document browsing within 1–2 seconds, tagged 3,000 documents per minute, returned results on complex searches within four seconds and produced five million pages of discoverable documents per 24-hour time periods.
- Capacity -- With the flexible administrative tools in Concordance Evolution, users can adapt the capacity of the software to their needs, whether it's to manage a small case or a large, complex litigation matter. This is made possible by a scalable Microsoft® SQL back-end database that keeps data in one place, improves data integrity and supports large-scale, multi-party document review. The new version of the platform also allows users to run multiple imports, exports and production actions at once, automate and schedule jobs and distribute processing across multiple servers, providing tremendous scalability.
- Ease of Use -- Concordance Evolution features optimized workflows that save hours of time, enabling review of more data sooner than with processes required by competitive products. Specifically, users can easily conduct queries, browse and tag documents, view production sets and conduct bulk reviews. A unique "Dual View" design allows users to obtain two different types of views simultaneously on a split screen in a single browser. Other user-friendly features include sortable fields, email threading, near-native highlighting and shortcut keys. Intuitive workflows like these also reduce the need for extensive user training and retraining.

I Know The Times LyricsArtist: JandekAlbum: You Walk Alone We spent together Weren't always meant to be Oh the voices outside that we heard so clearly Weren't meant for us to hear So it's true I was with you With you an everlasting moment Grew to be Listen to the other side of life Listen, don't turn back the tide of life If I should go and try to find The only thing that's on my mind Each and every day I dream a dream In which I don't return But I can never feel the threat No never feel a threat of losing Anything I get for free So listen to the other side of life Listen, don't turn back the tide of life
