Our special coverage of the closest race for years
Explore the personal stories of Syrian refugees in Lebanon
15 Feb 2011 10:23 GMT | Politics, Middle East
Two people were killed at a banned opposition rally in Iran, a member of parliament has told theIranian Students' News Agency.
"At Monday's rally ... two people were martyred and many were wounded; one person was shot dead," Kazem Jalali said.
It was unclear how the second protester died.
So far, Iranian police have confirmed that one person was killed during clashes and blamed an outlawed group for shooting into the crowd.
"One person was martyred by Monafeghin [the People's Mujahedeen of Iran - PMOI] in the shooting at yesterday's events," Ahmad Reza Radan, deputy police chief of Iran, said on Tuesday, adding that nine security personnel were injured.
Earlier, the semi-official Fars news agency reported that a bystander had been shot dead and several wounded by protesters.
But the National Council of Resistance of Iran, which includes the PMOI, denied the allegations on Tuesday, saying "those in power crushed the demonstrators, firing live rounds and tear gas at them".
The Associated Press news agency had quoted witnesses saying that at least three protesters had been injured by bullets while dozens more were hospitalised after being beaten.
Dorsa Jabbari, Al Jazeera's correspondent in Tehran, confirmed reports that security forces used tear gas, pepper spray and batons against the protesters.
As with other foreign media, she was prohibited by government order to witness the demonstrations.
Death penalty
During Monday's protests, thousands of people descended on central Tehran in support of the uprisings across Arab nations.
But Iranian politicians have called for opposition leaders to be handed the death penalty following the protests, accusing them of fomenting unrest.
"Mehdi Karroubi and Mir Hossein Mousavi are corrupts on earth and should be tried," politicians were quoted as saying by the official Irna news agency.
" />
Protesters burn a picture of the late Ayatollah Khomeini and Iran's supreme leader Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Hoseyni Khamenei. The demonstrators can be heard to chant "Mubarak, Ben Ali, now it's Seyyed Ali's turn."
The term "corrupt on earth", a charge which has been levelled at political dissidents in the past, carries the death penalty in the Islamic republic.
Gholamhossein Mohseni-Ejei, a judiciary spokesman, said: "Those who created public disorder on Monday will be confronted firmly and immediately."
Human-rights groups have criticised Iran's crackdown on protesters, while Western governments have voiced their support for the demonstration.
Amnesty International, the UK-based rights organisation, condemned authorities for making dozens of arrests, saying the crackdown was aimed at blocking the work of activists and stifling dissent.
"Iranians have a right to gather to peacefully express their support for the people of Egypt and Tunisia," Hassiba Hadj-Sahraoui, Amnesty International's Middle East and North Africa deputy director, said.
Catherine Ashton, the European Union's foreign policy chief, urged Iran to refrain from using force against protesters, while Hillary Clinton, the US secretary of state, backed the rights of people to protest.
"We wish the opposition and the brave people in the streets across cities in Iran the same opportunity that they saw their Egyptian counterparts seize in the last week," Clinton said.
One-day event
An Iranian foreign ministry spokesman said comments from US officials were designed to distract from the changes going on in the Middle East.
Monday's marches were organised as a one-day event and it is unclear if further protests will take place later in the week.
A message posted on by the organisers of the demonstrations on the 25 Bahman Facebook site seemed to indicate that there might be more protests.
"The 25 Bahman group will try to announce the programme for of protests for tonight and tomorrow shortly," it read.
The current security clampdown is reminiscent of the one that crushed a wave of protests after the disputed re-election of Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, the Iranian president, in June 2009.
There was few mentions of Monday's demonstrations on state-run television stations or websites.

7 Ways To Make A Museum Visit Super-Fun For Kids
We recently spent 10 days in Vermont, including two in Shelburne where we visited one of the most incredible museums we've ever been to. The kids learned a lot—and we helped them get even more out of the experience with a few rules of thumb we've learned over the years about museum visits.
1. Make the visit easy for everyone. We got to the Shelburne Museum right when it opened, so no lines to get in and no hustle and bustle (particularly key for my son, who gets nervous about crowds). It was simple to get ourselves together early because we were staying just a mile down the road at the Heart of the Village Inn, a bed and breakfast place that dates back to 1886. Sometimes B&Bs are not all that kid-friendly but this one happened to be both charming and very welcoming. The kids loved eating dinner on this porch and bathing in the old-fashioned clawfoot tub.
2. Start with the museum biggies first. We knew the kids would want to spend a long time exploring the Ticonderoga, a 1906 steamboat, so we did it early on in the day, while they still had massive amounts of energy.
Both kids were fascinated by the boat's overnight rooms, all of which still had clothes from the time period.
3. Leave time for kids to explore in their own way. The Shelburne Museum is one of the most massive, and unique, museums in the country. There are more than 150,000 works of art and Americana in 39 buildings, including 25 historic ones relocated to the grounds. Collections include artifacts, quilts, paintings, carriages, duck decoys, toys, you name it—the founder of the museum, Electra Havemeyer Webb, was quite the collector. You could easily spend days there; we had just one, so we went without an agenda and let the kids wander as they wished.
Max wanted to wheel his stroller up and down the ramp. A lot. We let him.
4. Encourage kids to ask questions. One of the particularly awesome parts of the museum: all the craftspeople and "businesses" you could view in operation. As we stood and watched staffers do their work, I reminded my daughter to ask questions; the more interactive the kids' experience is, the more they absorb.
She asked the blacksmith (who was making a hook) how hot he heated the metal to. Answer: 1200 degrees. "That's hot!" she said.
In the 1840s General Store, which housed a post office, doctor's and dentist's offices, and all things sold in stores long ago. The narrow wooden thingies in the back of the photo are the first vacuum cleaners; pump the handles up and down to sock up dirt.
Weaving on a loom
At the printing press, where she learned how different kinds work and she got to make her own print.
Giving the 1920s carousel a test run.
5. Divide and conquer! I was really into the carriage and sleigh displays. The kids? Not so much. So my husband took them elsewhere and gave me 15 minutes to explore on my own.
A "school bus" sleigh, from 1910; it transported kids to one-room schoolhouses, pulled through the snow by a team of horses. The inside has long benches and a small wood stove.
6. Contain your photo urges. I am a total photo nut; I take a bazillion everywhere we go. After awhile, it tends to drive my daughter bonkers. "MOMMY! STOP TAKING PICTURES!" is one of her most-heard museum refrains. I wanted her to relax and enjoy, and so I held back.
By the special exhibit Time Machines: Robots, Rockets and Steampunk. After this, I quit asking her to pose for photos.
Child-less photo.
7. Keep up the learning after you leave. The kids adored the Circus Building, which housed vintage circus photos as well as two hand-carved circuses including this one, the Kirc Bros. Circus that has some 3,500 figures. It was made over the course of 40 years by Edgar Kirk, a father of four who worked for the Pennyslvania Railroad; he carved the figurines during work breaks using only a penknife. When we got home, we Googled more information about him and his circus and more photos, too. My daughter had also been fascinated by the quilts we saw, and we're going to buy a book and see if we can make one ourselves.Add a Comment

Mark Miles replaces Jeff Belskus as CEO of Indianapolis track owner
|By Sam Tremayne
|Tuesday, November 20th 2012, 16:06 GMT
IndyCar's interim CEO Jeff Belskus has been replaced by Mark Miles as the chief executive officer of Indianapolis Motor Speedway owner Hulman & Co.
The move will allow Belskus to devote more time to his IndyCar duties, which he assumed following Randy Bernard's resignation in October.
Belskus said he has been invigorated by his short-spell at the IndyCar helm, and was eager to help develop the series' long-term future.
He previously told AUTOSPORT that building IndyCar's fanbase would be key to the future of the series.
"We see opportunities to continue the growth of IndyCar, which I view as an exciting challenge," he explained.
"My passion is rooted in the Indianapolis Motor Speedway and IndyCar, and I have been energised by the opportunity we have in the short and long term for both organisations.
Belskus predicted Miles, with whom he has served on the Hulman & Co board for several months, would prove a valuable appointment.
"Mark and I have known each other for many years and have worked together closely since he joined the Hulman & Company board," he said.
"Mark brings a wealth of experience and has a good understanding of the opportunities and challenges that face our business.
"I believe he will be very helpful in bringing new and successful ideas to the company."
IMS chairman Mari Hulman George said the new appointment would enable Belskus to fully focus on his IndyCar's long-term health.
"The racing components of our business are very important to our company, and Jeff is uniquely positioned to help lead us into 2013 and beyond as he has complete understanding of our sport and our 2013 plan and an excellent relationship with our key stakeholders," George said.
"By allowing Jeff to focus on the racing businesses and significantly less on the other business units, we are clearly aligning our executive management team to move the company forward."
Miles spent 15 years as the CEO of the ATP, the governing body of men's international professional tennis, before serving as chairman of Indianapolis's 2012 NFL Superbowl host committee.

Software Developer Trainee Interview
I applied online. The process took a day – interviewed at ST Ericsson - Global in February 2012.
They answered me really quickly and scheduled the interview also in a very agile way. The interview was held by two people who created a very informal and relaxed environment. And basically they want to know about you, your skillset, goals and ambitions. The interview lasted three hours and in the end they told me there the outcome, although, I asume sometimes they take some days to think about it. But, I should say, the people that interviewed me where really interesting people and I got along with them very well.

Brad Laabs: Birds, open water are signs of spring
This last week we have seen the return of increasing numbers of trumpeter swans, geese, ducks, and eagles. They are all sharing a limited amount of open water and are getting along well with each other. Their return to our area is a sure sign of spring. So is the return of many of the other birds that are enjoying my wife's birdfeeders. They are all naturally intuitive, and know that they will have more available open water very shortly.

Members of the LeFore family have worked the soil for generations. It all began when two brothers left their fruit stands in the Ukraine to try farming in America. For many years, Ron LeFore Family Farms have quietly donated to food banks throughout the Feeding America network. They produce and pack some of the Northwest's finest apples. Within their commercial packing lines there is a "food bank" category. This high quality product will go to families in need throughout the Pacific Northwest. In spite of a less than average harvest in 2013, Ron LeFore Family Farms donated 200,000 pounds of apples.
Thank you, Regence BlueCross BlueShield of Oregon for engaging in hunger relief by donating food, time and money to our collective community effort.

In addition, Regence and their employees made substantial financial contributions to Oregon Food Bank. These elements alone established a position in the coveted Corporate Donor of the Month program, however, there is a deeper thread that entwines Regence and Oregon Food Bank that bears mention.

National Youth Week 2015
National Youth Week is an annual, week-long celebration of young people (aged 12-25) throughout Australia.
It is a joint initiative of the Australian, State, Territory and Local Governments. It gives you an opportunity to express your ideas and views, act on issues that affect your lives. It also lets you have a lot of fun.
Each year, all over Australia, events are planned and organised to celebrate and recognise the contribution of young people. In 2014 more than 26,000 young people from across Victoria participated in National Youth Week activities.
National Youth Week 2015 will be held from 10 April to 19 April 2015, incorporating the theme 'It Starts With Us'.
Grants Announced
In partnership with the Australian Government, the Victorian Government is again providing National Youth Week grants of up to $2,000 to fund events that celebrate and recognise the contribution of young Victorians to their community.

Each year, a young person is appointed to act as the spokesperson for their respective state or territory and contribute to the planning and promotion of National Youth Week events.
Michael said he felt privileged to represent young people in Victoria in preparation for National Youth Week next year.
"I really enjoyed travelling to Canberra as the Victorian representative on the National Planning Group and catching up with other like-minded young people from other states and territories across Australia. The Young Member role will not only support the activities occurring in National Youth Week but provide an opportunity to show Australia the positive power young people truly have!" he said.

ALEXANDRIA - The Willmar American Legion baseball team, under new coach Dave Oehrlein, split a pair of one-run games on Saturday at the Alexandria Invitational. Coon Rapids 2, Willmar 1 Willmar's run scored on a Tyler Horning sacrifice fly bringing in Jason Otte in the third. Coon Rapids tied it with an unearned run in the lower part of the inning and won it on a Joe Morissette RBI single in the bottom of the eighth.
MANKATO - The Willmar VFW I team went 3-0 in its pool at the Mankato Invitational on Saturday and Sunday. Because the tournament ran late, the game for the overall championship was canceled. Willmar 6, Lakeview 3 David Anderson received the victory while catcher Jordan John Smith had three hits along with shortstop/pitcher Jordan Ray Smith, who also had three RBI.
GRANITE FALLS - Veteran pitcher Curt Kvam shut Willmar down for seven innings and the Granite Falls Kilowatts went on to deflate Willmar 5-1 in the Cornbelt South League on Sunday afternoon at Richter Park. Kvam struck out 10 and his relief, Luke Berg, three more without issuing a pass. Willmar's got a spark when Steve Wetterling homered over the Richter Park wall in the eighth off Berg. The Kilowatts managed only five hits off three Willmar pitchers but took advantage of four walks, several wild pitches and four Willmar errors. Michael Hinde drove in two runs with a double and Jay Magnus
HAMBURG - The Raymond Rockets took third place at the eight-team Hamburg Invitational this past weekend. Raymond's Mike Kragenbring and Kyle Knott were chosen to the all-tournament team. Raymond edged Waconia 3-2 in the quarterfinals before losing to Plato 12-5 in the semifinals.

ST. PAUL - Litchfield senior Natalie Devine completed two of the four events she qualified at the state meet Friday, winning the Class A high jump title and placing sixth in the long jump. Devine, the only area state qualifier, male or female, to qualify in more than two events, will compete in the 100 hurdles and the triple jump today at Hamline Univesity. Devine and Toni Tollefson of Lake Park each jumped 5-6, but Devine was given the title on fewer misses.
Jed Danielson, a North Dakota State senior from New London, narrowly missed a school record in the 800-meter run when he ran a personal-best 1:48.88 last Sunday at the Jim Bush Southern Cal USATF Championships at Occidental College in Los Angeles. Danielson was sixth in the meet and finished just off the NDSU school mark of 1:48.51 set by Heith Janke in 1998. Danielson won the Division Independent championship on May 13 in 1:51.01. He will compete Sunday in Stanford, Calif. in an attempt to qualify for the U.S. Championships that will be held June 21-25 in Indianapolis.

Congress Contemplates Protecting Travelers
By Ryan Calo on October 1, 2008 at 5:21 pm
As Jennifer Granick noted noted in April, the Ninth Circuit has held that government agents need not have reasonable suspicion in order to search laptops or other digital devices at the border. In apparent response to this practice, legislation has recently been introduced in both chambers of Congress to raise the privacy protections of travelers. The text of the Travelers' Privacy Protection Act, introduced by Senator Russ Feingold (D-WI) and three co-sponsors in the Senate and Representative Adam Smith (D-WA) in the House, has not been released. As I read an ACLU press release, however, the bill would require a warrant before a search can be conducted of a travelers' personal electronic devices.

"People don't understand that their reservation price is being hit on the basis of the data about them. People don't realise that by giving up information about themselves they are getting a worse deal.… I think that consumers, when they hear about it, are not happy about it. Companies that have tried to do it they have got some pretty serious push-back."" Read more » about Will Personalised Pricing Take E-Commerce Back to the Bazaar?

"Ryan Calo, Assistant Law Professor at the University of Washington and an affiliate scholar at the Stanford Center for Internet and Society, joined us to talk about his vision for a commission compromised of technologists, engineers, and scientists:
"I don't know that we need a Federal Robotics Commission exactly as I've described it, but what we do need is to start thinking more systematically about robotics law and policy."" Read more » about An argument for a federal robotics commission

7-42VDC Input 5V 2A USB Output Power Supply. Compatible with Raspberry Pi, Arduino, iDevices, Mobile Phones and other USB Devices.
Having to use a Raspberry Pi and other USB Devices in an electronics production environment where 5V isn't standard, I have noticed a lack of power supplies capable of fitting in. A unit had to be designed to fit into systems where 12V & 24V are the norm or where batteries / solar panels etc are the only supply method available.

Scasagrande shared his USB isolator project, that is available at Github:
I received inspiration for the project from other USB isolator projects on the internet. Mine features a few improvements to many of them:
USB-B and micro-USB connectors on the host (upstream) side
In addition to accepting power via the barrel connector (which goes through a basic 7805 low dropout linear regulator), there is also a micro-USB port for device-side power. This allows you to use the now common cell phone charger cube to power your isolated device
Push-button switch for easy USB disconnection events
Bypass jumper for linear regulator, allowing for 5V power from the barrel connector

I've been thinking about making a temperature logger for my room and my computer, I set on using DS18S20 sensors from Maxim because they're common, cheap and overally pretty ideal. My computer is so new that it does not have a serial port (not 100% sure, I think there might be a pinheader on the motherboard with serial port connections) so I have to use USB for interfacing. Next thing I had to do was to make an USB to 1-wire adapter so I could attach the sensors to my computer.
I browsed around for a while and set on using the DS2490 USB-to-1-wire adapter chip because the circuit for it looked pretty simple. I modded the component values a bit from the ones on the original schematic from Maxim to ones I had in hand. I used 0805 sized SMD components because I have those in store.

cpldcpu did a teardown of an external USB battery:
The device has a USB micro-b socket which is used as 5V input for charging, and a normal USB-A socket as 5V output. The output power can be turned off and on by a toggle button. There are LEDs to indicate active power out (blue) and charging (red) states. The pictures above show the innards of the device. Most space is taken up by an ICR18650 LiIon battery, which are relatively common devices with 2600mAH. In addition, there is a tiny tiny PCB. The rear side of the PCB is dominated by a 4.7µH inductor, which is part of the boost converter to convert the 3.7V of the battery to the 5V USB output.

This is a nice simple soldering project that does exactly that, isolates your USB port from connected devices. There are two input usb connectors, one carries data and power from the computer the other supplies power to the output. The output comes from a 3rd USB A connector. There is no power/ground/data connection between the computer and connected devices other than through the isolator chip. This board has two grounds, two power supplies etc.

The Confession of the Eunuch.
Πιστεύω τὸν υἱὸν τοῦ θεοῦ εἶναι τὸν Ἰησοῦν Χριστόν.
I believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God.
Note.—This confession of the Ethiopian Eunuch before his baptism by Philip the Deacon, together with the preceding words of Philip, 'If thou believest with all thine heart, thou mayest' [be baptized], according to the received text (with sundry variations), is not contained in the best Uncial MSS., and is given up by critical editors (Griesbach, Lachmann, Tischendorf, Tregelles, Alford, Westcott and Hort), as an interpolation made to suit the baptismal service of the Church; but it is found even in Irenæus and Cyprian, and tends to prove the apostolical origin of a baptismal confession of faith in Christ as the Son of God.

China Doll (Radermachera Sinica) Root Pruning and Repotting
Has anyone root pruned and repotted their Radermachera Sinica into Al's gritty mix? I know they're a bit fickle so I'm wondering how well they handle root work.
I have, I have! ;o)
No problem with their handling root work, but don't delay. It's getting late in the growth cycle. Late Jun-early Jul is best for you, but if your tree is healthy it'll be ok.
Here are some pictures of a harsh top reduction if you're interested. I really should get it outside & take additional pictures of it 2 months later. You'll be surprised at what it looks like after seemingly such harsh treatment.
I came across that post while doing a search and was wondering what it looked like now, please post pictures soon.
My radermachera is 3 ft tall and bushy, in a 9" pot. I got it as a gift last week and I've been adjusting it to its new environment. The soil looks very compact and I can see roots on top of the soil as well as at the drainage holes.
I like the way the top growth looks and don't really want to prune the stems, I actually want it to become taller and treelike. But I want to cut away at least half the roots to encourage healthier growth. Do you think this would be ok?
I think we should tweak your perspective just a little. Root pruning, along with full repots, actually helps to prevent the stress associated with tight roots and collapsed soils. It helps to prevent decline and allows the plant to grow at closer to its genetic potential. I would bare-root and only prune out the largest roots, not taking any more than 1/3 of the o/a root mass. Repotting into the gritty mix is a good idea. Open shade for at least 2 weeks after the repot is best.
Good luck.
I did a full repot this weekend trying not to take off more than 1/3 of the roots as suggested. But the soil was so compact, I'm afraid I took off close to 1/2 the roots trying to hose off all the old soil. Most of the roots were pretty fine and delicate and broke off quite easily.

I enjoyed this book except the build up to the supposed terrible danger that the heroine was placed in, fell really flat for me. The comments as to " you have no idea how dangerous or what you are dealing with" really didn't come across in the end as a big deal. It was disappointing. That said, I liked the flow the characters and would read this author again.
Decent mystery. doesn't telegraph *every* surprise too loudly.

X MET7000 eXpress designed to offer faster identification of more than 1,600 alloy grades.
Oxford Instruments, Abingdon, United Kingdom, has launched the X MET7000 eXpress, described by the company as a new, faster handheld XRF (X-ray fluorescence) analyzer for high performance measurement. The new X-MET7000 eXpress delivers accurate analysis, lower limits of detection, improved precision (repeatability) and faster analysis time, the company says.
The X-MET7000 eXpress analyzes, verifies and screens materials up to four times faster than the X-MET7000 QuickSort with one pull of the trigger, the company says. This can be critical when dealing with large volumes of samples to analyze in limited time, as in the scrap and PMI markets, and in the environmental testing industry, saving costs and increasing productivity, the company adds.
The X-MET7000 eXpress includes Oxford Instruments' 40 kV X-ray tube and high-resolution, high-count rate silicon-drift detector (SDD). It comes with what the company says is the largest alloy grades library available on the handheld XRF market, providing more than 1,600 grades to ensure accurate identification of metals.
As part of the X-MET7000 series, the X-MET7000 eXpress offers the largest touch screen available on the market with its intuitive and easy-to-read graphical user interface, says the company. Other features include large functional icons, a high contrast 4.3 inch Blanview transmissive LCD touch screen and up to 10-12 hours battery life on a single battery charge.
The handheld XRF analyzers come with unsurpassed reporting flexibility; reports can be downloaded on a USB memory stick, or to a laptop using a USB connection or WiFi. The results screen and reports can be customized. The rugged, yet light and compact design of the X-MET7000 series is designed to withstand the harshest environments and weather conditions, according to the company.

Tony Pua (left) and Khalid Ibrahim - File pix
PETALING JAYA: A responsible and caring Pakatan Rakyat government should do much more than just "blame Syarikat Bekalan Air Selangor (Syabas)" for the water crisis, according to DAP MP Tony Pua.
Instead of arranging a lesson for him on "what the state has done" and "why Syabas is to blame", he said it might be more important for Mentri Besar Tan Sri Khalid Ibrahim and state officials to pay a visit to the families queuing up with pails to draw water from the supply tanks.
"I am certain these residents will be extremely keen to hear about it," he said in a statement on Sunday, hitting out at the Mentri Besar for the second time this week.
Pua said that the MB may be right in pointing fingers at the state water concessionaire for the water issues, but no explanation was given as to why the state government was so quick to "guarantee" that there would not be any major water disruption.
"Some residents might wonder as to why the state government was so quick to offer 'guarantees' when the state is fully aware that Syabas has refused to cooperate or even attend state organised meetings," he said.
He added that even if the state government was unable to fulfil its promises, it should come up with ways to provide immediate assistance to those affected by the water issue.
"Should we not have some empathy and put in place a 'Plan B' for these long suffering water disruption victims?
"Surely, a responsible and caring Pakatan Rakyat state government should do much more than just blame Syabas - even if they are indeed the rightful party to be blamed," he said.
Pua also said that he fully supported Serdang MP Ong Kian Ming's suggestion for a water task force comprising the Mentri Besar, key elected representatives and state officials to find and review solutions for the water woes.
"This committee will not only give the state authorities the opportunity to teach us ignorant elected representatives of the issue, but also allow the local assemblymen to share with the top state leaders the problems and pains felt on the ground so that a solution, particularly in the short-term, can be found," Pua said, taking a jibe at Khalid who had earlier said that the DAP MP should learn more about the water issue before doling out criticism.
"While waiting for the state to finally take over control of Syabas, we cannot just sit back and allow Syabas to make a mockery of the Pakatan Rakyat government," Pua said.

From Normandy up to Pilsen
70 years ago, June 6, 1944 in the morning, the Allied attack against Wehrmacht Units was opened by the Normandy Landings. The D-Day, when the invasion of Normandy started, became one of the most important events of World War II. The moment of surprise, soldiers´ determination and courage achieved success, the liberation of European Continent started there and continued up to May 1945.
