SOMETHING NEW, SOMETHING BLUE: "It's the Nike ID of couture customization," said Aslaug Magnusdottir of her new fashion start-up, Tinker Tailor. The entire idea of the Web site is to customize exclusive designer branded fashion items, from the exact length of a hem, or colors, the fabrics, and more on skirts, tops, or dresses. Today, the site launches bridal gowns with Marchesa, and will later unveil collaborations with Alberta Ferretti, and more, that will use the same customization technology.
"I heard so many luxury customers tell me they wanted their items they shop to be unique, and not show up somewhere where someone else is wearing the same this," she said. "Customization is all about expression, and I think that most women — especially for their special day — want to create a dress that's specific to them."
The Marchesa collaboration will start from $3,000 to $12,500. Accessories that will also be sold on the site will range from $500 to $65,000.
Though customization is key on the site, Magnusdottir wanted to clarify that her business it is not made-to-measure.
"So many women want to purchase a gown and think, 'if only, there were sleeves, or this or that,'" she said. "We're the creative woman's outlet for that." Each of the items will ship in twelve to sixteen weeks.

A seismic shift of stuff is underway in homes all over North America.
SANTA ANA, CALIF. — If you lead an active, extroverted life and are something of a thrill seeker, you might be genetically primed to live into your 90s or longer, according to a new study by a team that included University of California, Irvine researchers.
A variation of a much-studied gene involved in transmission of dopamine, a key component of the brain's reward and learning system, was found to be far more frequent among the very old.
And the same gene variant was also linked to longer life in mice.
The variant itself might not extend lifespan directly, said Robert Moyzis, a UCI biological chemistry professor and an author of the study.
Instead, it appears to predispose those who bear it to a more vigorous lifestyle.
"This particular variation has already been associated with personality traits that are much more outgoing, much more socially engaged," Moyzis said. "We think it's a simple as that. Obviously, if you are much more likely to be engaged in physical and intellectual activities as you age, there have been many studies that have shown that is a good predictor of adding a few more years to your life."
The human subjects in the study came from Laguna Woods, part of a group involved in the Leisure World Cohort Study that began in 1981. It included people who were 90 years old or older in 2003; most of them have since passed away, Moyzis said.
But their genes, as well as cell lines, live on, perpetuated in laboratories so they will be available for a variety of research projects.
In this study, genetic samples from 310 people 90 years old or older were checked for the gene variant, known as the DRD4 7R allele.
Sixty-six per cent more people possessed the gene variant in the 90-plus group when compared with a control group of nearly 3,000, aged seven to 45.
For the mouse component, researchers at Brookhaven National Laboratory found that mice that had the gene variant "knocked out" of their DNA had their lifespans decreased by seven per cent to 9.7 per cent compared to mice that carried it.
"Even in a fairly enriched environment, you take out this gene and the mice just don't live very long," Moyzis said.
The gene variant is something of a double-edged sword. While it appears to promote long life, it also has been associated with high-risk behaviour, drug addiction and attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, or ADHD — although children with the variant, causing them to be more restless and easily bored in a classroom setting, might not properly belong under the broad umbrella of ADHD, Moyzis said.
Despite the large number of children diagnosed with ADHD shown to have the variant, "they really don't have the cognitive deficits and attention deficits diagnostic for this disorder," he said.
The discovery of the gene variant's association with longevity might inspire people to become more active as they age, potentially extending their lives — even if they don't harbour the variant themselves, Moyzis said.
And more work must be done to learn about potential risks the variant could bring in adolescence, and other traits that might come with it.
"The story isn't totally done," he said. "I get the impression this is the story of all the blind men and the elephant. We have little snippets of what this gene seems to be strongly associated with, but it's hard to say, to totally specify, what the whole pathway is yet."

Office Space star Stephen Root to talk at UM
UF grad
Feel free to call him Milton. Thirteen years after Office Space came out, Stephen Root's used to being compared to the cubicle drone whose only joy in life is his stapler. But the character actor has many other varied roles to chat about. Which is what he will do 8 p.m. Tuesday at the University of Miami Fieldhouse, 1245 Dauer Dr., Coral Gables.
In "An Evening With Actor Stephen Root," the Vero Beach native and University of Florida graduate will conduct a Q&A and show clips from some of his most beloved movies (J. Edgar, No Country for Old Men, Dodgeball: An Underdog Story) and TV shows (NewsRadio, True Blood, The Good Wife, Boardwalk Empire).
The event is part of the school's "Taking Flight: The Year of the Humanities and the Arts" program. Still, with all his success, Root, 60, would advise young people against entering showbiz. "I didn't get into it to be famous. I got into it to be a working actor,'' he says from the UM campus, preparing his speech. "If you don't mind slogging through crappy jobs for years then go ahead, please do it."

Caitlin Rossman | June 19, 2013 | Comments
Close to half of smartphone owners and tablet owners said they use their mobile devices as a second screen while watching TV, according to a new survey by Nielsen.
Close to half of smartphone owners and tablet owners said they use their mobile devices as a second screen while watching TV, according to a new survey by Nielsen.
Over two-thirds of these consumers claimed to have used these second screens multiple times a week during Q1 2013.
The survey looked at what tablet or smartphone activities consumers are partaking in while simultaneously watching television. The survey aimed to find out if consumers are using second screens while watching TV as mere distractions or if they were trying to engage more deeply with the content they were watching. Nielsen found that the answer was both.
Among tablet owners, 76 percent looked up information in general, 68 percent surfed the web, and 53 percent visited a social networking site. But almost half of tablet owners looked up information on actors, plotlines, athletes, or teams, and 20 percent purchased a product or service that was being advertised.
A much higher percentage of tablet owners versus smartphone owners used their second screen to engage with the show they were watching or to post something about it. About 15 percent of tablet users said they watched certain TV programming because of something they read on a social media site.
Nielsen's Q1 2013 Cross-Platform Report found that smartphone users spend an average of nine hours every month connecting with social media from their mobile device, while tablet users spend an average of four hours each month.

Booked an earlier train back to Munich, may even get back early enough to have a beer in a serious city, but full disclosure needed, I like Munich almost as much as I love Berlin.

Spectacular Switzerland!
... was a very nice gentleman working there who helped us navigate the proper boxes and forms to use and we were out of there in no time, crossing our fingers that we had done everything correctly so they make it home ok. So with that out of the way it was time for some lunch as we explored Zurich a bit.
Bree had read in one of the guidebooks that a little café somewhere in the "new" part of town was supposed to be famous for their sandwiches and ...

Most of the time was spent gawking at the insane prices for fair food. 25 francs for a hot dog meal. With a conversion of $1.10 for 1 franc we couldn't believe it. Rich life. All in all it was nothing exciting but I'm glad we went. We wouldn't ...

It was interested and intimidating...we weren't sure of much, but the fruit and chocolate was easy to find! We headed back to the apartment, ate dinner, then got the girls ready for bed. Yeah...we got them ready but they were NOT ready. Grace stayed up for a few more hours ...
Swiss fondue!!
... cheese pot, as Dan wasn't really a fan. I 'had' to have wine with it cause other types of drinks do funny things to your stomach...so lets just say I wasn't just happy about eating a tone of melted cheese when I left the restaurant.
Yes we brought more Swiss chocolate....We cant get enough of it (cough*it doesn't last that long*cough)

Move over, Na'vi: You're no longer the strangest people associated with James Cameron.
He and Andrew Adamson (Shrek, Narnia) have collaborated — i.e., the former is producing and the latter is directing — on Cirque du Soleil: Worlds Away, a 3D mixture of narrative and documentary centering on the world's most famous acrobatics group. This first trailer presents no real clues as to the "timeless original story" promised by Paramount — other than shots of a confused woman and possibly something about space travel — but the footage, while capturing something that's not exactly "my thing," looks well-composed and should be lovely in 3D. So, all we have right now are the hints of a purely visual experience; I might not object if Worlds Away turns out to be just that and that alone.
Watch the trailer below (via Apple):
Cirque du Soleil: Worlds Away will open on December 21st.
Is Cirque du Soleil worthy of the the cinematic treatment? What impression do you get from this first teaser?

Water Crisis Underlines Pacific's Drought Risk
Delegates will discuss the drought and other issues at a roundtable discussion in Fiji July 8 to 11
The United Nations Office for Disaster Risk Reduction (UNISDR) issued a warning that a lack of safe drinking water is emerging as a major natural hazard for many small islands in the Pacific.
Water Resource Worries
Hydraulic fracturing, commonly referred to as fracking, is a method of extracting natural gas from shale formations. Fracking has been around for many years, but recently, combining it with horizontal drilling has made it economically practical for gas extraction. While natural gas presents the U.S. with options to become more energy independent, there also are concerns about the process's impact on the environment.
Fracking's potential effects on drinking water supplies
Clean Energy, Clean Water
Hydraulic fracturing (fracking) brings two of our most precious natural resources at odds. The natural gas harvested through the process is essential to meeting our country's growing energy needs (and is a source of clean energy at that). However, poorly constructed wells or improper disposal of wastewater from fracking operations can potentially affect drinking water quality. There have been reports of methane migrating from drilling operations into drinking water sources — contamination that not only could render water undrinkable, but also cause a potential explosion hazard.
Survey Shows Strong Chinese Interest in Water Reuse
Results indicate that people in China are more concerned with water quality and availability
GE announced the results of a consumer water reuse survey. Based on 3,000 online interviews, the water reuse survey was conducted by GE in partnership with StrategyOne and examined consumer attitudes in three countries: China, Singapore and the U.S. The survey provides a comprehensive view of how residents of each country view water reuse and their willingness to support the protection and recycling of water.
Exciting Initiatives
This spring, Richard Mest, president of Master Water Conditioning Corp., was elected president of the Water Quality Assn. (WQA). Water Quality Products Managing Editor Kate Cline recently spoke with Mest about what is in store in the next year for WQA and the water quality industry.
Kate Cline: What opportunities do you see in the coming year for this industry?
New WQA President Richard Mest on the state of the industry
Deficit in Nation's Aquifers Accelerating
USGS study shows nation's aquifers being drawn down at an accelerating rate
A new U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) study entitled "Groundwater Depletion in the U.S. (1900-2008)" comprehensively evaluates long-term cumulative depletion volumes in 40 separate aquifers (distinct underground water storage areas) in the U.S., bringing together reliable information from previous references and new analyses.
Technological Advances Encourage Adoption of Water Treatment Equipment
Analysis finds that educating end users on products' benefits lowers resistance to new technology
Deteriorating water quality and technological innovations have given a huge boost to the water treatment equipment market in both residential and commercial segments in the Asia-Pacific region. People's desire for clean water and rising environmental consciousness in the wake of greater urbanization, pollution and occurrence of natural disasters have all ensured higher uptake of water treatment equipment.
The Journey to Sustainability
As concern for the environment moves ever closer to the forefront of public and media attention, the water treatment industry has been subjected to criticism. Reverse osmosis (RO) systems and softeners have been accused of wasting water and contributing to salinity problems, and producers of bottled water vie with filter manufacturers over which option is greener.
New standards provide sustainability certification for carbon products
Septics & Salt: Results From the Septic Study
If you attended the WQA Aquatech USA 2013 tradeshow in Indianapolis in April, you heard about many exciting topics, but probably none that have been in the works for as long as the septic study. After more than 10 years in the making, the Water Quality Research Foundation published results from the Environmental Impact Study that was funded to investigate the effects residential ion exchange water softeners may have on the performance of onsite septic tanks.
Septic study results show systems working together efficiently
U.S. Consumption of Bottled Water Shows Continued Growth
U.S. bottled water consumption increases 6.2% in 2012; sales up 6.7%
The International Bottled Water Assn. (IBWA), in conjunction with Beverage Marketing Corp. (BMC) has released 2012 bottled water statistics, compiled by BMC, a research, consulting and financial services firm dedicated to the global beverage industry. The new data show that the overall consumption of bottled water increased by 6.2% and bottled water sales were up 6.7%.

I need to draw a growing 3d line using open gl on an Android device.
The problem is I need to draw lines that scale with a "laser" type effect on them.
Originally I just thought of drawing simple gl lines or line loops but they wont scale if the camera is moved closer to them - like a fly through.
My next thought was to generate a cylinder mesh and extrude it as I would do a line in real time, accounting for 90 degree turns by adding a 45degree rotation after extruding from the end point a new cylinder, turning the end 45degrees again and extruding another cylinder to create the new line extension and so on and so-forth...
Problem with cylinders is the near clipping plane will clip through them.
Anyone have a better thought or idea they can throw at me for this?

An Illinois middle-school teacher has been able to motivate students to learn through a student-directed method of teaching and learning. Josh Stumpenhorst, named an emerging leader by the International Society of Technology in Education, helped organize Innovation Day in which the school's sixth-graders completed a project of their choice. Allowing students to take ownership of their work, he said, inspires them to learn. "Kids aren't motivated by grades," he said. "They're motivated by learning. They're naturally curious. I think a lot of times schools stifle that."

Nothing Special
While Steve Ditko continues to work on improving his art, overall issue 34 or The Amazing Spider-Man isn't anything special. Kraven the Hunter decides to return to New York City to once again stalk the one quarry that has thus far eluded him: Spider-Man.
In order to flush Spider-Man out, Kraven dons a Spider-Man costume himself, and proceeds to stalk and harass J. Jonah Jameson. The resulting media attention does the trick, and when Spider-Man finally shows himself, Kraven lures him to an abandoned building where they can have their final showdown. Complicating the matter are a group of criminal lowlifes who see Spider-Man and decide to join in the scuffle to take down their hated enemy.
The rest of the comic is pretty much all punches and kicks (mostly punches) until one of them is victorious. Not a particularly great or noteworthy issue, but nothing really wrong with it either.

I do not think this title is suitable for readers ages 3 to 5! There is some quite complicating text and a VERY slow read! For people who want a very straightforward book that you can read within a week for report, I would most definitely NOT recommend this title. This is something that you would want to buy (check out) in late fall so that you can snuggle up with some hot cocoa and read for hours on end!

After a visit to the Animal Shelter (Animal Welfare League, Ingleside NSW) our family is now the proud owner of 2 lovely little tabby sister kittens. As named by DS, Cat Woman and Poison Ivy are settling in well and they have been a constant source of companionship to all of us. Pets as therapy, they are just wonderful to have around.

I think of you often Winnie the Pooh.
Pets are great therapy and I hope they are helping in a small way to bring some smiles to you all.

I m so jealous. Would love to get a pair of kittens.
But with finances the way they are and two dogs I have to wait until the big dog dies. How horrible!
At least DD will be old enough to have fun with them by then.
Posted 28 January 2013 - 01:34 PM
Thanks Therese, I'll endeavour to put up a pic, it's been a while so please bear with me.

They are absolutely gorgeous. I am very jealous, intending on adopting a pair of kittens once we settle into our new home (moving once our house is built)
I have even already picked their names - Ella and Toby
Enjoy your kittens, pets bring so much joy!!!!!!
Posted 28 January 2013 - 01:45 PM
Beautiful and thank you for adopting them from a shelter
Wish you many happy years with your new babies

Kudos to you for adopting!
They are gorgeous...and interesting names LOL.
Posted 29 January 2013 - 04:01 PM
They are just so gorgeous, OP. I LOVE their names. Tabbies are just so full of character, too.
Posted 29 January 2013 - 04:31 PM
They are gorgeous....I think I am seeing things...but the kitten at the back with the pink or lilac coloured collar seems to have one leg through the collar
It could be me though.

I think Lynn may be right!
Posted 30 January 2013 - 01:31 PM
Yes, she did have her paw through the collar and I fixed her up straight away. We've kept an eye on them as the collars are just ever so slightly a little large, but we've had no other incidents.

Europe: Far-right EU groups to form party
The move comes several months after the collapse of a far-right bloc in the European Parliament. The Identity, Tradition and Sovereignty (ITS) bloc disbanded itself in November after a row between its Italian and Romanian members over race.
In Vienna, the heads of Austria's Freedom Party, Belgium's Vlaams Belang, Bulgaria's Ataka and the French National Front said the new party would be a counter-balance to other political forces in Europe.
"We say: Patriots of all the countries of Europe, unite! Because only together will we solve our problems," Freedom Party leader Heinz-Christian Strache said. "Irresponsible mass immigration to Europe from outside Europe due to irresponsible politicians... is the problem," he said.
Asked about the chances of success of the new party, French National Front leader Jean-Marie Le Pen, who was also present in Vienna, said: "It's not necessary to hope in order to try."
The far-right leaders need support from seven EU parties to launch the group, but Mr Strache said that the goal was to have "more than 10 parties as members and ideally one party from each EU country". The new party has no name yet, but Mr Strache said European Patriotic Party or European Freedom Party were working titles. The plan for the new party drew a rebuke from Austria's governing Social Democrats who said the proposed political force was absurd and contradictory.

Sad thing is I try to help my team and tell them what to do and they refuse to take criticism. Oh well. Another ban because bads don't like being told what to do.

Carlyle Man Charged in Centralia Theft By Deception CaseA 36-year-old Carlyle man had bond set at $10,000 after being charged in Marion County Court with theft by deception.
Charles Anderson of Oak Street is accused of taking $250 from Matthew Feazel and deprive him permanently of the property on July 21st. The charge is based on Anderson having a prior theft conviction.
Centralia Police have arrested Anderson on several other theft cases in the past two weeks, but he had been released on those charges pending further investigation. He was taken into custody for allegedly taking the money from Feazel on Thursday.
Anderson had the public defender appointed to represent him after probable cause was found at Friday's court hearing to continue holding him on the charge. A preliminary hearing was set for August 18th.

Catholic Online (www.catholic.org)
For many citizens of the world, bribery of government officials is a daily fact of life. In a poll conducted by Transparency International, more than 50 percent of the global respondents said that the corruption within their own countries has worsened over the past two years. This has led to an overall mistrust in law and governments worldwide.
By Catholic Online (NEWS CONSORTIUM)
Catholic Online (www.catholic.org)
7/9/2013 (1 year ago)
Published in Politics & Policy
Keywords: Grqft, bribes, corruption, Transparency International, poll
LOS ANGELES, CA (Catholic Online) - Political parties are seen as the most corrupt class of organization in some 51 countries. Thirty-six countries name the police as the most corrupt, while another 20 countries say the judiciary forms the worst their government has to offer.
Based on a survey of 114,000 people in 107 countries, more than 50 percent of the respondents said that they thought their government is controlled by small groups and special interests. In nations such as Cyprus, Greece, Lebanon, Russia, Tanzania and Ukraine, that number jumps above 80 percent.
"The majority of people around the world believe that their government is ineffective at fighting corruption and corruption in their country is getting worse," Transparency International said in the report.
Liberia and Sierra Leone rank at the bottom in terms of corruption, with more than three in four of those surveyed saying they had paid a bribe in the past year.
Bribery rates were over 50 percent in Cambodia, Senegal, Cameroon, Ghana, India, Tanzania, Kenya, Libya, Mozambique, Uganda, Yemen and Zimbabwe.
At the other end of the spectrum, the countries reporting the least amount of graft, Australia, Belgium, Portugal, Malaysia, Finland, Denmark and Croatia were among the countries reporting a bribery rate of less than five percent.
Somewhere between 5 percent and 9.9 percent of respondents in the United States and United Kingdom said they had paid a bribe.
A Transparency spokesman pointed to a link between poverty and graft, saying eight of the 10 countries with the highest bribery rates are African.
According to the poll, corruption has also worsened in most Arab countries since their 2011 revolutions, even though anger with corrupt officials was a major reason for the uprisings.
Most importantly, the survey suggests that corruption cuts across societies and demographics.
Some large, sophisticated economies have governments that are perceived to be under the control of an elite few such as Italy, Spain, Belgium and Israel.
What needs to be done? Transparency International says authorities must make sure corrupt officials do not escape punishment.
"Impunity is anathema to the fight against corruption and, especially in the judiciary and law enforcement sectors, is a direct challenge to the rule of law," the group said.

Seedling help?
Michaela .:. thegarden@902 .:. (Zone 5b - Iowa)May 17, 2014
I direct sowed a lot of seeds in my garden last winter, and this one did well because it's everywhere. I planted everything in large clumps, so I am pretty sure it's a flower because it's located in one section of the garden only.
Any idea what this is?
Seeds I put down:
Purple Verbena (Brazilian?)
Double Sunburst Coreopsis
Prairie Aster
Purple Coneflower
Swamp Milkweed
If it's too early to tell, no worries. I'm just terrible at identifying seedlings & hoping someone recognizes it. :)

But in today's high-tech world of Facebook, Twitter and text messaging, I fear our children's tree houses have become just another digital destination. They're just one more application to download and play while waiting for the teacher, the bus driver, the doctor or dinner to appear on the table.
Want to play in the tree house? There's an app for that.
Don't you remember the great ideas of your childhood? The amazing inventions, stories or pieces of art weren't fueled by megabytes — they were ignited by the kinds of dreams that only come when the distractions disappeared.
Now, more than ever, in our turbulent, over-scheduled and technology-driven world, it's not just our children who need a tree house. Whether it's a few feet off the ground, a quiet place in your office or a chair in your bedroom, everyone deserves to have a place to escape cell phones and televisions and newsfeeds and virtual friend requests.
We deserve a place to feel childlike again, where everything is possible because your parents or teachers said so. It's a place where you believe you can do great things because God has blessed you with one of the greatest resources of life: your imagination.
If my father reads my columns in heaven, I hope he knows that I finally understand a tree house isn't a thing and it really isn't even a place. It's a state of mind.
Go find yours.

Students or beginning midwives who are not yet able to accurately interpret what they are feeling during palpation may enhance their mental imagery by using a water soluble marking pen to trace the shapes of fetal parts they are feeling onto the mother's abdomen. This gives a visual as well as tactile picture of size and position of the baby. Of course, make sure the mother feels comfortable with this procedure.

Doulas have an especially important role in changing birth practices, both one birth at a time and as a presence in the larger birth movement. With the exception of a brave few, midwives have not been able to infiltrate the hospital system. Doulas are reaching many spaces in birth care that we cannot. Doulas help more women have good births and motherbaby needs them.

Jan Tritten is the founder, editor in chief and mother of Midwifery Today magazine. She became a midwife in 1977 after the amazing homebirth of her second daughter. Her mission is to make loving midwifery care the norm for birthing women and their babies throughout the world. Meet Jan at our conferences around the world, or join her online, as she works to transform birth practices around the world.

An updated, systematic review of the effects of continuous labor support was recently published in The Cochrane Library. The updated review adds new data to a controlled trial research review on continuous labor support published in 1989. The purpose of the review was to assess the effects of continuous, one-on-one labor support on both mothers and babies.
The review found that women who received continuous support during labor were more likely to have shorter labors and to give birth spontaneously. They were less likely to have a cesarean, give birth with a vacuum extraction or forceps, have analgesia or anesthesia and tended to express less dissatisfaction with their experience. Care providers who were not a part of the birthing mother's social network, or a part of the hospital staff (in cases of hospital births), seemed to have the most impact on assessed outcomes.
— Childbirth Connection. "Systematic reviews, continuous support for women during childbirth." Last modified February 16, 2011. http://www.childbirthconnection.org/article.asp?ck=10272
When the time came for Rebecca to push, it wasn't determined by someone coming in and checking and declaring, "Okay, you are fully dilated. Time to push!" Instead, she transitioned into the birthing tub, moved around and investigated ways that best suited her needs. Soon, the urge to push just appeared. Without instructions, bright lights, counting or commotion, Rebecca found a way to push her beautiful baby girl out into the world.
This particular birth experience revealed to me not only a different side to birthing, but a different perspective of the doula's role. Normally, a big part of my job is to help the couple negotiate with the hospital staff and explain the basic risks vs. benefits of different interventions. This time that aspect was removed and one of my main contributions was to just watch and be present. I stepped in when Rebecca needed a gentle touch, a hand to hold or a soft voice to remind her she was perfect "as is." I stepped away when she didn't need me or when she and her husband needed time together. Rebecca's primal instinct was our true leader on this journey. And it led her and her baby well."

Whenever travel to Italy is mentioned, it is almost inevitable to include the city of Florence in the discussion. Declared as a World Heritage Site by UNESCO in 1982, and ranked by Forbes as one of the most beautiful cities in the world, Florence is the capital of the lush region of Tuscany and is considered as the birthplace of the Renaissance. It was also a center of trade during medieval times, and to this day, it remains a major economic center. As one can expect from a city that is steeped in culture and history, almost every street and every corner boasts a historical building or a work of art (because even the door knockers here are sights to behold). However, other than your usual tour of galleries and museums, there are still a myriad other interesting places to see and things to do in beautiful Firenze. Here is […]

Despite the dismissal of Samir Rifai's government and the formation of a new one earlier this month, demonstrations and sit-ins continue in Amman and in a number of Jordanian governorates. Demonstrators are demanding better living conditions and more freedoms, as well as accountability of those guilty of corruption.
The Youth for Change Movement ("Jayeen"), which calls for constitutional political reforms, continued to hold sit-ins as did former government workers, who are asking for job opportunities after they lost their jobs with the government.
Sit-ins this week were staged by workers of Mu'tah and Hussein bin Talal universities, as well as by investors in Amman's Stock Exchange, who have reportedly suffered losses amounting to one billion dinars ($1.4 million) this month.
Workers of the Petroleum Refinery Company, the only refinery in Jordan, have called for a demonstration on March 7th, to protest the company's failure to increase wages.
Economic expert Dr. Yousef Mansour said that the protests come as a result of the deficit in the public budget, which has gone over $1.4 million; the debt that has exceeded $15 billion; and unemployment which has reached 14% according to government reports, whereas unemployment among Bachelors Degree holders has exceeded 20%.
"The [Rifai] government had announced that the country's budget for 2011 did not include job creation, which crushed the hopes of many, who are out of work," Mansour said. "In addition, the salary increases that were approved at the beginning of 2011 (20 Dinars or 28 Dollars), does not match the inflation rates."
Mohammed al-Sneid, the Chairman of the Committee of the Daily Wage Workers who were employed with the ministries and other government agencies, told Al-Shorfa, "The demands of the workers are fair, especially that hundreds of them were terminated or dismissed under the pretext that the projects they had worked on, had ended. This threatens their livelihood and their families".
Labour affairs expert Amal al-Damen, said, "The current labour movement is unprecedented in Jordan. Since the beginning of February, sit-ins and protests have intensified and have not stopped. They have several demands most important of which are to secure a decent living and job security."
She said that the demands, which have intensified, derive their strength from the wave of protests in the region. The sit-ins are characterised by peacefulness and are not intended to sabotage or cause harm, she added.
On February 20th, Jordanian King Abdullah II emphasised in a speech he made, during his meeting with heads and members of the executive, legislative and judicial authorities, that, "Nothing can influence the policy of openness, the spirit of tolerance and the culture of pluralism and acceptance of other constructive and honest opinions, because these are Jordanian constants that do not change."
He added, "Reform is our unwavering will, because it is in the interest of our people. It means progress and keeping up with modern times." He said that he is waiting for the government to present him with its recommendations on the mechanism of a comprehensive dialogue, to discuss all the necessary measures to be taken in order to realise political and economic change.
Al-Damen said that "King Abdullah's speech reassured the citizens of his respect for their rights to express their opinion. It also called for the government to accelerate the pace of reform that is sought by the workers."
In the midst of the protests in Jordan calling for political and economic reform, some have succeeded in achieving positive results, such as the teachers' demand to form a teacher's union.
Prime Minister Marouf Bakhit told parliament on February 20th that it will establish a union for teachers if his cabinet receives a vote of confidence.
The Chairman of the Preparatory Committee for the Revival of Teachers Union in Jordan, Mustafa al-Rawashdeh, told Al-Shorfa that "the sit-ins of the members of the committee asking for the establishment of a union to protect one hundred thousand Jordanian teachers, especially with regards to their low salaries, are fair."
He said that "the government of Samir Rifa did not respond to the demands at all, while the new government has begun to respond and has announced its support for the teachers' demands."
