Turkish prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdoğan has reached out to world nations to immediately act in Somalia to end starvation, which he said is a shame for the entire humanity while slamming Israel for shrugging off un Security Council resolutions and hindering peace in the Middle East.
Erdoğan harshly criticized the world's largest international body on Thursday during his historic UN address and said the United Nations could not show the necessary leadership to win over fears threatening humanity and their hopes, referring to Somalia, where he visited last month.
He spoke about the necessity to restructure the UN and renew its vision so that the international body protects the laws of humanity and does not serve the interests of a certain number of countries.
"I have seen in Somalia last month the failure of the UN and the international community in dealing with the urgent needs of the world," Erdoğan said.
Recalling his own personal observations, he said it is impossible to describe the poverty and pain he had witnessed in Somalia and that it is a shame for the international community to see thousands of children dying because of lack of bread and water in Somalia's tragedy.
The Turkish prime minister said the two-decades long civil war in Somalia has basically destroyed all sources necessary for life, adding that Somali people are walking towards death in front of the entire global community. "Today, the international community watches Somalia as if they were watching a film without a reaction. We have to deal with this picture which is a test for the entire humanity," Erdoğan said.
According to Erdoğan, no one can talk about peace, justice and civilization in the world unless what he said the voice of Somalia is heard.
Israel chief culprit in hindering peace
Erdoğan also harshly criticized Israel for hindering peace in the Middle East and reiterated Turkey's position that the Jewish state must offer apology as a condition to restore ties.
He said Turkey wants to call on Israel to understand there was no substitute for peace and the picture in the region was not just an equation of "peace for security."
Erdoğan said there are hundreds of General Assembly decisions that were adopted on Israel and there are 89 Security Council resolutions which Israel only shrugged off. "What is more painful is that the UN has been incapable of taking the necessary steps to end the humanitarian tragedy that Palestinians have gone and are going through," Erdoğan stressed.
Erdoğan said Turkey is ready to extend all efforts to achieve peace in the Middle East, adding that Turkey will display active efforts to solve the Arab-Israeli conflict, for recognition of the Palestinian state, to facilitate compromise among Palestinian groups, and to see an end to the blockade imposed on Gaza.
Erdoğan also pointed to what he called injustice regarding sanctions due to suspected nuclear activities. He said Israel, which utilizes phosphorus bomb and has a nuclear weapon in its arsenal, never faces sanctions but he said when the Western nations "smell similar bombs" in the region, they impose sanctions, referring to Iran's suspected nuclear program and sanctions on the regime to relinquish the nuclear activities.
Complaining of tolerance the international community is showing to Israel, Erdoğan underlined that it is Palestinian territories that are occupied, not Israeli ones and said "one has to ask permission from Israel to bring in a box of tomatoes to Palestine." He said Israeli leaders must realize that the real security for the Jewish nation is the advent of peace.
He urged the world nations to press on Israel to show its leadership that the country is not above the rule of law.
The Turkish prime minister also asked the UN member states to recognize Palestine, which he said was in fact established by this body but never implemented.
Speaking about lethal Israeli raid into Mavi Marmara ship, Erdoğan said Israel has made a big mistake to a friendly nation – Turkey. He said Turkey cannot remain silent and indifferent to an incident where Israel "martyrs nine of our citizens."
Erdoğan reiterated Turkey's position and said unless Turkey's demands – official apology, compensation and lifting Gaza blockade – are met, it is impossible that Turkey restores ties with Israel. He appealed the Israeli people and said he wants to underline that Turkey has no problem with the Israeli people. "We have a problem with the Israeli gov't," he said, adding that the Israeli government should be blamed for being the primary source of tension between Turkey and Israel.

Evaluation of Spectral Interferences Associated with a Direct Current Plasma-Multielement Atomic Emission Spectrometer (DCP-MAES) System
Volume 33, Number 5 (Oct. 1979) Page 451-456
Johnson, G.W.; Taylor, H.E.; Skogerboe, R.K.
Spectral interferences associated with a direct current plasma combined with a 20-element, direct reading echelle spectrometer have been characterized. The results indicate that molecular emission interferences due to entrained air are generally negligible, but the presence of high carbon concentrations may cause problems for two elements. Spectral interferences due to the presence of high concentrations (500 mg/l) of Ca, K, Mg, and Na were also studied. No problems were noted for Na or K while an interference due to atomic emission of Mg was observed. Calcium was responsible for stray light interferences due to near scatter and to reflections occurring in the secondary optics. The latter were eliminated by masking techniques and the former were compensated for via the use of a simple procedure. Overall, the spectral interferences encountered appear to be less severe than those reported for an inductively coupled plasma-direct reading spectrometer system.

Glen Sather met with the media following the trade deadline (via SNY's Doug Williams)
- Any questions, (laughs)…"no, thanks"
- On trading picks, "I don't think we have given anything away. The players we have added are terrific assets to the team. We got to the Conference Finals last year with the deal that we made. I can't predict where we will end up this year, but this guy is a great player and will help us a lot. It's just not a one-year deal."

Good vision, patience and natural feel as a ballcarrier to press the hole and attack the line of scrimmage, following his blocks. Strong cuts and breaks tackles at all levels . A chore to tackle. Good speed and won't slow down at the second level with long strides in the open field.
Workhorse and wears down defenses. Catches the ball well (31 career catches). Strong work ethic and devoted to the game with his head on straight, keeping his eyes on the prize. Extremely productive career (led the team in rushing each of the last three seasons) and leaves Towson as the school's all-time leading rusher (4,854), setting FCS single-season records in 2013 for rushing yards (2,509) and rushing touchdowns (41).
WEAKNESSES: Tends to run too high at times and needs to consistently keep his pad level low and keep himself small at the line of scrimmage without slowing down. Makes too much contact with his blockers inside. Lacks elite speed to routinely win the edge.
Not much burst and needs a few steps to get his full momentum going. Runs hard, but lacks shifty, explosive feet or twitchy moves. Needs to improve his awareness in pass protection to gain better positioning and show better technique. Needs to hold the ball high and tight and will get sloppy in this area, especially in space. Didn't face top-flight competition each week at the FCS level.
--Dane Brugler
He worked odd jobs while trying to walk on at Maryland or Clemson, but ended up walking on at Towson where he worked his way onto the field and rushed for 1,294 yards in a back-up role in 2011, setting the FCS freshman touchdown record (29).
West saw more playing time in 2012, but re-wrote the record books in 2013 as a junior when he finished with a FCS-record 2,509 rushing yards and 41 rushing scores, earning multiple All-American honors and finishing third in the voting for the Walter Payton Award.
Despite his numbers coming at the FCS-level, his career production is impressive with 4,854 rushing yards and 84 touchdowns in only three seasons, becoming a rare FCS underclassman to leave early. West is built very well and delivers hits with his natural power and initial momentum, staying light on his feet and finishing strong. He lacks elite athletic traits, but he is reminiscent of Joique Bell and fits a similar type of role where he can offer a nice power compliment.

Heatley reaches 400 assists in win
Dany Heatley found it all too fitting that he reached the 400-assist mark for his career with two ''passes'' off the post.
Known more for his shot, the Minnesota Wild forward clanged a pair of line drives off the goal post, only to have the puck carom straight to teammates and result in two assists for Heatley.
That's just how things have been going of late for the Wild, who scored a season-high four goals in the first period to beat the slumping Colorado Avalanche 6-4 on Saturday.
Even shots slightly off the mark eventually find their mark.
''I'll take it,'' Heatley said. ''We have four lines rolling right now.''
The Wild sure do, with 11 players earning at least a point in this game. Devin Setoguchi led the way with two goals along with adding the 100th assist of his NHL career.
''Anytime you can get that, it's fun,'' Setoguchi said. ''More importantly, I got my 100th and we got the win.''
Ryan Suter started a four-goal scoring spree in the first period to help the Wild win for the fourth time in five games. Cal Clutterbuck, Kyle Brodziak and Pierre-Marc Bouchard also added goals.
This was the second half of a home-and-home between the two teams, with Minnesota winning 5-3 on Thursday night.
John Mitchell, P.A. Parenteau, Gabriel Landeskog and Chuck Kobasew had goals for an Avalanche team that has dropped three in a row. Jean-Sebastien Giguere was roughed up in his first home start of the season, allowing four goals on 14 shots before giving way to Semyon Varlamov at the start of the second period.
Backstrom was solid in net, stopping 28 shots to move to 23-5-3 lifetime against the Avalanche.
Setoguchi all but wrapped up the win with his second goal midway through the third period when he slipped a shot through the pads of Varlamov. It was Setoguchi's first two-goal game of the season.
''We've got such a big, strong team that can skate,'' Setoguchi said. ''It's tough to defend.''
Kobasew scored with 1:53 remaining to make it a two-goal game, and the Avalanche pulled Varlamov but couldn't take advantage of the extra skater.
Colorado worked its way back into the contest in the second period with goals from Parenteau and Landeskog. But the Avalanche made a costly mistake in their zone, when Landeskog tried to send a pass across the middle. Bouchard intercepted the puck and backhanded a shot by Varlamov to make it 5-3.
Landeskog lamented his poor choice after the game.
''Any team is going to capitalize on those chances,'' the Avalanche captain said. ''It's deflating, especially because we battled back so hard and got back to 4-3 and then I throw that puck away. It's frustrating.''
Time is slipping away for the Avalanche as they tumble farther and farther in the standings.
''We've got to figure it out here and start to work together,'' said Duchene, who had two assists, giving him 10 points in his last five games. ''It's not effort and it's not talent. We've got both of those. I think it's just concentration. Everyone is so scared to make mistakes.''
The first period featured two fights, three roughing calls and two Wild goals before fans even had a chance to settle into their seats. Suter got Minnesota started on the right note with a shot over Giguere's left shoulder.
Soon after, Setoguchi scored on a similar shot on a screened Giguere. Clutterbuck and Brodziak also added goals on ''passes'' from Heatley.
The four goals in the opening 20 minutes brought the day to an end for Giguere. He sat on the bench as Varlamov took his spot in goal.
Minnesota was without forward Jason Zucker for a second straight game. The rookie has what the team is calling an upper-body injury after a violent blindside collision with Corey Perry that brought the Anaheim right winger a four-game suspension.
Zucker is on the trip with the Wild and possibly could play Monday night in Vancouver against the Canucks, a team the Wild are chasing in the Northwest Division race.
''That's our biggest challenge now,'' Clutterbuck said. ''I don't think we expect to score four goals in the first period every game but we expect to play the same way every game.''
Notes: Wild D Brett Clark was a scratch for a second straight game after being signed for the rest of the season on Thursday. Clark played five-plus seasons for Colorado. ... Avs D Ryan Wilson (ankle) was a scratch. ... Colorado dropped to 2-1 in day games this season. ... Avs F Milan Hejduk was a scratch after returning to the lineup Thursday at Minnesota, his first game back after sitting out five straight with a torso injury.

I visited this facility
I had visited The Manor at Woodside. It seemed good. I had a positive experience. The apartments were small. It was a good place, and the people seemed very nice. It was clean, and overall, it was fine.
I am a friend or relative of a resident
Everything is perfect! The Manor at Woodside is just exactly a very good fit for my mother. It's clean, nice, fun, safe, protective, caring, and attentive. There they have chaperoned trips, bingo, exercise, and religious services, so it's nice. The atmosphere is beautiful. I'd recommend it. My mother's happy and comfortable.
I visited this facility
Manor at Woodside offers quite a few activities just about every day including the weekends. Its location is convenient to bus transportation. I would highly rate them because they had the convenience of being close to places like shopping. I heard some people who have had their relatives there and they were giving good feedback.
I visited this facility
We visited The Manor at Woodside before my father passed away. The staff was professional and respectful. The place is very clean and well-maintained. It's a wonderful facility.
I visited this facility
The Manor at Woodside is a charming place and a very cozy enclave for the elderly. The property is teeming with natural beauty and is meticulously landscaped, while the building complex is equally as orderly and is in pristine condition. There are innumerable activities and events that take place at The Manor, so there literally is something for everyone.
My grandmother speaks very highly of the staff, claiming they are very friendly and attentive- qualities that are of the utmost importance in such a facility. Her living space is comfortable, but not humongous. There appears to be plenty of room for her to maneuver while the room is not expansive.
Everything a senior citizen could possibly want is located within The Manor. There is a large common area that a lot of the folks were taking advantage of during my visit, and there was not a grim face among them.
Everything about my experience with The Manor, and my grandmother's own testimony, leads me to believe it is a top of the line retirement community.

text: juvenile offenders Michigan AG withdraws subpoenas against Michigan Radio, Huffington Post By Steve Carmody • Mar 9, 2015 Steve Carmody / Michigan Radio Michigan's Attorney General's office has decided to withdraw subpoenas it served on news media outlets, including Michigan Radio. The subpoenas demanded notes and other information the news outlets collected in connection with a lawsuit against the Michigan Department of Corrections. Michigan fighting claims of sexual abuse of teens in prison By Kyle Norris • Feb 1, 2015 Shayan Sanyal / Flickr ANN ARBOR, Mich. (AP) - Michigan's prison system is defending against a major lawsuit that claims guards and other employees failed to prevent the sexual assault of male inmates under 18 who were housed with adults. After more than a year of litigation, the young inmates have made some important victories. Washtenaw County Judge Carol Kuhnke has agreed to make the case a class-action and also declared that state civil rights protections apply. Federal juvenile justice reforms would encourage changes in Michigan By Michigan Radio Newsroom • Dec 23, 2014 Microsoft Images Congress is set to consider updating a decades-old law that guides states on the custody and care of juveniles in the criminal justice system. The Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention Act was introduced this month, and one big change is an incentive for states to lock up fewer children. Michigan Supreme Court agrees convicted killer too young – by 1 hour – for life without parole By Steve Carmody • Dec 2, 2014 Michigan Dept of Corrections A convicted killer will get a chance at a new sentence. In this case, one hour makes a big difference. Deandre Woolfolk was about an hour shy of his 18th birthday when he took part in the fatal shooting of a 15-year-old girl. Woolfolk and two other men were convicted of murder in the case. Second chance for a clean record in "teen court" By Michigan Radio Newsroom • Jun 4, 2014 Jennifer Guerra For a kid caught stealing a $30 bracelet from a store, juvenile court would likely be the next stop. But a "teen court" program in Detroit gives some teenagers a chance to avoid the juvenile justice system. It's one of about 1,000 programs across the country. The teen court model still doles out consequences for kids who break the law, but the idea behind it is less about punishment and more about getting kids on the right path. Teenagers are involved in every aspect of the program. They are "lawyers" and "jury members," not just defendants. Share Art Project brings together juvenile offenders and artists By Stateside Staff • Apr 10, 2014 Facebook Listen Listening... / 7:19 How do we really get through to kids who are headed down the path to trouble? There is a group of artists in the Flint area that believes the answer is spoken word and visual art. The Share Art Project has been bringing artists together with young offenders. It's a collaborative effort among artists at the Buckham Gallery, students and the Genesee Valley Regional Center. Shellie Spivack is a Buckham board member who chairs the program, and she joined us today. Listen to the full interview above. *Support for Arts and culture coverage on Stateside comes in part from the Michigan Council for Arts and Cultural Affairs and the National Endowment for the Arts. Stateside for Thursday, April 10, 2014 By Stateside Staff • Apr 10, 2014 Listen Listening... / 48:38 The average gas mileage of new vehicles sold in the U.S. has steadily been improving, and greenhouse gas emissions are at an all-time low. The Environmental Protection Agency also recently set new emissions standards, scheduled to be phased in between 2017 and 2025, that will reduce the amount of sulfur found in gasoline. But is the slow and steady climb in fuel economy and emissions enough? On today's show, we ask if the Obama administration's 2016 and 2025 fuel efficiency goals setting the bar too low? Then, a new documentary film brings us the story of the Great Lakes as seen through its ice. And, last month, Gov. Snyder confirmed a financial emergency existed in Royal Oak Township. Can other communities learn from Royal Oak's situation? Also, the Share Art Project is a collaborative effort among artists at the Buckham Gallery, students and the Genesee Valley Regional Center. We spoke to a Buckham board member about the program and an upcoming exhibit. First on the show, there have been two big developments this week in the high-stakes showdown over Detroit's pensioners, its art treasures and creditors, who hope bankruptcy judge Steven Rhodes will pressure the city to put those art treasures on the table. There's a lot to try to sort out. So, as we do each Thursday, we spoke to Detroit News business columnist Daniel Howes. Michigan Attorney General appeals order for parole hearings for teen offenders serving life in jail By Steve Carmody • Dec 2, 2013 Official portrait Michigan's Attorney General has decided to appeal a federal judge's order that would require parole hearings for more than 300 juvenile offenders serving life sentences. The U.S. Supreme Court ruled last year that sentencing juvenile offenders to automatic life without parole constituted "cruel and unusual" punishment. Children who murder should get a chance at parole By Jack Lessenberry • Nov 27, 2013 Listen Listening... / 3:05 Lessenberry commentary for 11/27/13 CORRECTION: The headline was changed to avoid an inadvertent pun. There are about 350 in Michigan who screwed up badly when they were teenagers. Most took part in murders. All are serving life without the possibility of parole. Some of these young killers are probably vicious psychopaths who should never be allowed back into society. Others, however, were scared and stupid kids who, in some cases, did nothing except be there when an older friend, or, in a number of cases, a boyfriend, committed some terrible crime. But they were all sentenced under Michigan law to life without the possibility of parole, and two years ago, you could have said, that was that. Except that isn't the law anymore. Seventeen months ago, the United States Supreme Court ruled that laws automatically requiring a life sentence without the possibility of parole for kids under 18 are unconstitutional. Michigan's High Court to rule on life-without-parole sentences for minors By Rick Pluta • Nov 7, 2013 Flickr user Still Burning / Creative Commons The Michigan Supreme Court will decide whether the U.S. Supreme Court decision striking down the state's juvenile lifer law applies retroactively to more than 300 inmates. The question is whether those inmates are entitled to parole hearings or if the decision only applies to current and future cases. The U.S. Supreme Court decision still allows life-without-parole sentences for minors. But it said courts have to hold hearings to decide whether there are circumstances like abuse or neglect, or whether a defendant was coerced into committing the crime. The Michigan Supreme Court has also agreed to decide another question: whether minors convicted of assisting in a murder can be given life-without-parole sentences at all. The question is whether that violates the state constitution. In this morning's headlines: drugs and unemployment, juveniles, Bernard Kilpatrick sentenced By Michigan Radio Newsroom • Oct 18, 2013 User: Brother O'Mara / Flickr Drug test and unemployment bill moves forward "People who fail or refuse to take a drug test as part of a job search could see their unemployment benefits revoked. The state Senate approved the measure yesterday," Jake Neher reports. Lawsuit says rape common for juvenile offenders in adult prisons "The state of Michigan faces a lawsuit alleging it has subjected hundreds of juvenile offenders to a high risk of being raped, by putting them in the same prisons as adults. Attorney Deborah LaBelle says the state has put kids as young as 13 in the same prisons as grown men. A new federal law went into effect in August requiring prisoners 17 and younger to be housed separately from older prisoners," Tracy Samilton reports. Bernard Kilpatrick sentenced to 15 months in prison "The father of former Detroit Mayor Kwame Kilpatrick has been sentenced to 15 months in federal prison for a tax crime. The sentence ordered Thursday was at the bottom of the guidelines," the Associated Press reports. U.S. Supreme Court "juvenile lifer" decision would not apply to past cases under Senate bill By Rick Pluta • Sep 17, 2013 Steve Carmody/Michigan Radio Legislation to overhaul Michigan's juvenile lifer law would not apply to inmates already sentenced as teenagers to life without parole. The bills were adopted today by the state Senate Judiciary Committee. The legislation is required because the U.S. Supreme Court struck down automatic life-without-parole sentences for juveniles. James Sorenson lost his son in 2007 to a teenaged murderer. He says any rewrite of the law should put the interests of the victims' families ahead of teenagers who participated in a murder. Work on juvenile lifer bills stalls in Michigan legislature By The Associated Press • Sep 7, 2013 LANSING, Mich. (AP) - Michigan lawmakers attempting to respond to a ruling that mandatory life-without-parole sentences for juveniles are unconstitutional have hit a stalemate that threatens to derail any progress.They can't agree on whether last year's Supreme Court decision last year applies retroactively to the roughly 360 Michigan inmates who were under 18 when they committed crimes. Hearing held in Lansing on how to rework Michigan's juvenile lifer law By Rick Pluta • Aug 27, 2013 Rick Pluta / MPRN Families of murder victims were among those who packed a legislative hearing room today. The hearing was on how to fix Michigan's juvenile lifer law to comply with a U.S. Supreme Court ruling. The court held that automatic life without parole for juveniles is unconstitutional. Michigan Attorney General Bill Schuette showed up for the hearing. He says the law should only apply to future cases, and not to the roughly 350 inmates already sentenced as juveniles to life without parole for first degree murder. Federal judge says hundreds of Michigan's juvenile lifers should be eligible for parole By Rick Pluta • Aug 12, 2013 Steve Carmody/Michigan Radio A federal judge says 363 inmates in Michigan prisons sentenced to life without parole as juveniles should get parole hearings. The U.S. Supreme Court ruled last year that laws like Michigan's that automatically send some juveniles to prison for life with no chance of parole are "cruel and unusual punishment." Attorney General Bill Schuette has been trying to limit the scope of the ruling to five inmates who challenged their sentences and to all future cases. He says families of murder victims deserved the certainty of knowing those sentences would stand. Advocates say juvenile prisoners are at risk By Jennifer White & Mercedes Mejia • Mar 12, 2013 user FatMandy / flickr Listen Listening... / 4:33 Michigan is one of 25 states that allow convicted teens, under the age of 18, to be imprisoned with adults. Attorney Deborah LaBelle is a juvenile justice advocate with the ACLU. She estimates nearly 200,000 children have been abused in adult prisons. LaBelle recently returned from Washington, D.C. where the Inter-American Commission on Human Rights conducted a hearing on this issue with representatives from the U.S. State Department. The hearing focused on the physical, sexual, and psychological abuse experienced by children when housed with adults in prisons. "In addition to the physical and psychological harm that's going on, putting children in the adult facilitates also results in them losing the very two things that makes them children: education and contact with their family and parents," LaBelle said in this interview with Jennifer White. You can listen to the full interview above. Michigan locking up fewer kids, but is that good enough? By Sarah Alvarez • Feb 27, 2013 Mercedes Mejia / Michigan Radio Fewer teens and kids are incarcerated now in Michigan than fifteen years ago. A new report by the Annie E. Casey Foundation says youth incarceration in the state has dropped 44 percent since 1997. New Michigan law makes it easier to erase juvenile crimes By The Associated Press • Dec 30, 2012 Steve Carmody/Michigan Radio LANSING, Mich. (AP) - Gov. Rick Snyder has signed a bill to make it easier for people to wipe juvenile crimes off their record.The new law will allow people to go to court to erase up to three offenses a year after the case is closed, instead of five years. The old law allowed only one offense to be expunged.The bill, sponsored by state Rep. Joe Haveman, R-Holland, was easily approved in the Michigan House and Senate before the Legislature's recent adjournment. Court: No review of sentences for current juvenile lifers By Mark Brush • Nov 16, 2012 Kevin Rosseel / morguefile The Michigan Court of Appeals ruled that the U.S. Supreme Court decision striking down mandatory life sentences for juveniles convicted of murder does not apply retroactively. The case involved a resentencing request for Raymond Carp. In 2006, Carp was convicted of first-degree murder as a 16-year old. Michigan AG continues fight to keep juvenile lifers behind bars By Jake Neher • Sep 24, 2012 Bill Schuette / Facebook.com State Attorney General Bill Schuette has not given up on trying to keep juvenile lifers behind bars. Next week, he plans to file to join a case before the state Court of Appeals involving a 21-year-old man convicted in 2006 of assisting a murder. The U.S. Supreme Court in June struck down mandatory life sentences without parole for juveniles as unconstitutional.Schuette spokeswoman Joy Yearout says the attorney general believes the ruling should not apply to people who are already serving sentences."For many of these cases it's been years, decades even, since the crime occurred. And these victims' families thought they had a sense of closure. This could result in them having to be hauled back into court, relive the crime, be re-victimized again. And it would really be a mess for our justice system here in Michigan," says Yearout. The ACLU of Michigan says the state cannot continue to keep people in jail without a new hearing if the U.S. Supreme Court says the sentence is cruel and unusual. Michigan has more than 360 people serving mandatory life sentences for crimes committed when they were under the age of 18. Schuette: Teen lifers don't deserve re-sentencing By Rick Pluta • Aug 1, 2012 Bill Schuette / Facebook.com Michigan Attorney General Bill Schuette says hundreds of juveniles sentenced to life without parole for murder or complicity in a murder should not get re-sentencing hearings. Schuette says a U.S. Supreme Court ruling that struck down Michigan's mandatory life without parole law for juveniles should only apply to future cases. He has asked the state Supreme Court to limit the scope of the federal decision. Randy Wood is a spokesman for the attorney general. He says Schuette believes re-sentencing hearings would be a mistake. Juvenile lifer ruling requires authorities to track down victims By Rick Pluta • Jul 17, 2012 There is some question on the reach of a recent U.S. Supreme Court decision that struck down automatic life-without-parole sentences for juveniles. Attorney General Bill Schuette's office says it may only apply going forward and not to the 366 juvenile lifers currently serving in Michigan prisons. Dawn Van Hoek directs the State Appellate Defender Office, which represents some of the juvenile lifers. She disagrees and said every juvenile sentenced to life without parole should get a new hearing. "I think they've already signaled, the Supreme Court has, and, you know, you have to wonder why even bother if you're not going to apply it to the hundreds of people who were affected nationwide by these unconstitutional laws," said Van Hoek. That would also require the state to track down the families of murder victims who have a right under Michigan law to testify at sentencing hearings. State laws allowing life sentences without parole for juveniles unconstitutional By Rick Pluta • Jun 25, 2012 User kconnors / MorgueFile.com The U.S. Supreme Court this morning struck down state laws that allow juveniles to be sentenced to life in prison with no chance of parole. The ruling says life without parole for crimes that occurred when a felon was younger than 18 is excessive and violates the Eighth Amendment. Michigan is one of several states that allowed juveniles to be sentenced to life without parole. The state has more than 350 people in state prisons serving life without parole for crimes committed as juveniles. Supreme Court rules life without parole for juveniles unconstitutional By Michigan Radio Newsroom • Jun 25, 2012 U.S. Supreme Court The U.S. Supreme Court ruled today that life sentences without the possibility of parole for juvenile offenders violates the Constitution's Eighth Amendment (the ban on cruel and unusual punishment). The ruling has big ramifications on Michigan. The state has one of the highest populations of juvenile offenders serving life sentences---358 out of about 2,500 nationwide. The ACLU sued the state of Michigan back in 2010. Their press release at the time said the United States is the only country in the world that sentences young people to life without the possibility of parole: ....and Michigan incarcerates the second highest number of people serving life sentences without parole for crimes committed when they were 17 years old or younger. Currently, there are 350 individuals serving such mandatory life sentences in Michigan. In a 5-4 decision, the U.S. Supreme Court drew from two previous cases---one banning the death penalty for youth offenders and the other outlawing life without parole for juveniles in non-homicide cases. Justice Elena Kagan, writing for the majority, said that those previous cases establish that "children are constitutionally different from adults for sentencing purposes. Their 'lack of maturity' and 'underdeveloped sense of responsibility' lead to recklessness, impulsivity, and heedless risk-taking." New report highlights challenges for Michigan's juvenile lifers By Mercedes Mejia • May 15, 2012 user FatMandy / flickr Teen offenders in Michigan are worse off than teens in other states. That's according to a new report from Michigan-based Second Chances 4 Youth and the state chapter of the ACLU. Commentary: Push to privatize some prison services By Jack Lessenberry • Apr 19, 2012 Reporters were caught off base yesterday when they learned that Governor Rick Snyder was not in Lansing as they thought, but in Afghanistan, visiting the troops. The secrecy was understandably needed for security reasons, and the trip is the sort of morale-boosting thing that governors and other state officials traditionally do. But it was very telling when the governor reported on what the soldiers wanted to talk about. Besides the surging Detroit Tigers and fading Red Wings, the chief thing on their minds seemed to be jobs. University of Michigan hosts panel on life sentences for juveniles By Michigan Radio Newsroom • Mar 23, 2012 Andrew Jameson / wikimedia commons The University of Michigan Law School hosted a panel on life sentences for juveniles on Monday. In Michigan, a first-degree murder conviction results in an automatic life sentence for anyone 14 or older. There are currently 359 people in the state serving life without parole for crimes committed as minors. Michigan is one of 11 states with this type of law. Austin Land works at a law firm that focuses on these kind of cases. He says these convictions are a human rights violation, because children are not able to fully participate in the adult criminal system. "Children have adolescent brains, they are risk-prone, and they lack adult faculties of judgment," Land said . "This all affects their ability to participate in their own defense, their ability to plea bargain." On Tuesday, the US Supreme Court heard arguments for a pair of cases involving men who were fourteen when they were sentenced to life in prison without parole. Defendants claim this violates the Eighth Amendment's ban on 'cruel and unusual punishment. ' -Alex Markel, Michigan Radio Newsroom Supreme Court cases could determine the fate of Michigan's youngest criminals By Michigan Radio Newsroom • Mar 15, 2012 Andrew Bardwell / wikimedia commons Michigan has one of the country's highest numbers of "juvenile lifers"---prisoners sentenced to life without the possibility of parole for crimes committed as minors---359 total. That includes six who were only 14 when they committed their crimes. These numbers come from an in-depth report from John Barnes at MLive.com. Barnes profiled those six, including TJ Tremble, who has spent half his life, 14 years, in a state prison following a murder conviction. Tremble has no hope of release because of a mandatory life sentence. Now, for the youngest of young offenders at least, there could be a path toward release. That's because of a pair of upcoming U.S. Supreme Court cases involving young offenders.

Decision to Deny Immigrant Law License Will Have Far-Reaching Effect, Cautions Houston Immigration Lawyer
Houston, TX (Law Firm Newswire) September 21, 2012 - The U.S. Justice department just sided with California's Supreme Court, stating that an undocumented immigrant who wants to practice law in California cannot do so.
Sergio Garcia, 35, asked to sit for his California bar exam. He has the support of California's Attorney General, Kamala Harris, who described Garcia as "a model of the self-reliant and self-sufficient immigrant" in an amicus brief. He was also supported by the California State Bar Association. However, Sergio Garcia is not a legal citizen of the United Sates.
California's Supreme court asked that the U.S. Justice Department step in, which then opined that licensing Garcia violates a 1996 federal immigration law. The 1996 law denies "public benefits" to illegal immigrants and was drafted, stated Justice Department lawyers in their decision, to "preclude undocumented aliens from receiving commercial and professional licenses issued by states and the federal government."
"The DREAM Act allows for immigrants to this country to gain citizenship if they meet certain criteria," stated Houston immigration attorney Annie Banerjee. "And many of them are upright individuals with families and community ties who simply want to work. Such seems to be the case with Mr. Garcia. He has been in the U.S. since childhood, he has completed all requirements to practice law, and he has the backing of his state's attorney general to work as a gainfully employed lawyer. He did everything right. His status is due to circumstances not of his making."
Garcia's father was a permanent U.S. resident when the Garcia family entered into the U.S. He later became a citizen and filed a petition in 1994 for his son to be granted an immigrant visa. Sergio Garcia was approved in 1995, and has been waiting ever since for a visa to make him a lawful permanent resident and to allow him to move closer to legal citizenship.
"Mr. Garcia is not qualified to practice law," countered retired prosecutor for the state bar of California, Larry DeSha, in an opposition brief filed with the court. "Because he continually violates federal law by his presence in the United States."
"There are other law school graduates in similar circumstances," points out Houston immigration lawyer Banerjee. In Florida, Jose Manuel Godinez-Samperio, 26, in the U.S. since the age of nine, is currently waiting to hear from the Florida Board of Bar Examiners if he can be admitted to the state bar. The Florida Bar has asked for guidance from Florida's Supreme Court. And immigrant rights activist Cesar Vargas, based in New York, has passed the bar exam and is applying to be admitted as a lawyer. The recent opinion on Garcia is expected to carry weight for those and other, similar cases.

- Public Displeasure With Immigration Misses Benefits That Newcomers Bring
Polls have consistently shown that a majority of Americans are dissatisfied with the nation's immigration levels. A majority of those who are dissatisfied call for a decrease in immigration levels. Concerns over immigration levels in the United States usually focus on the purported negative impact immigrants have on the nation's labor market and entitlement programs.

In November, President Obama announced that he was taking executive action to defer the deportation of millions of undocumented immigrants. His decision may have set a new direction for immigration policy in the United States. And if it is allowed to stand, it will be interesting to see how the president's measures impacts federal law [...] - Potential Human Migration Caused by Climate Change Pressures International Conference Attendees
Climate change represents a slew of looming global crises: the destruction of ecosystems, extinction of species and rising sea levels, just to begin.

Upcoming HTC One 2014 flagship pictured in gray
Prominent leaker @evleaks gave us the first "official" glimpse yesterday of the widely leaked upcoming HTC flagship, the All New HTC One. Now, to accompany the gold-colored flagship spotted yesterday, we've got a second look at the device, this time in gray.
Despite being called The All New One, the 2014 HTC flagship obviously takes many of its design cues from its predecessor.
The smartphone is tipped to sport a 5-inch 1080p flagship with a Snapdragon 800 CPU ticking inside, and will also come in silver. The most notable addition, of course, is the dual-camera, dual-LED setup on the back.
Although we won't see the new One next week at MWC next week, HTC has announced a major event for March 25, so we'll likely get to see it in flesh in less than a month.
Update: The aforementioned silver version has also been pictured:

The real question is why does the bottom picture have a chrome logo and the top have a generic internet logo? Its just supposed to be a placeholder picture to show off the phone colors.

US 3175472 A Abstract available in Claims available in Description (OCR text may contain errors) March 1965 R. K. LITTLE 3,175,472 FLUID MOTOR Filed July 1:, 1962 ROBERT K.L|TTL.E INVENTOR. ATTYS. United States Patent 3,175,472 FLUID MOTOR Robert K. Little, Mount Holly, N.J., assignor to RKL fontrols, Inc., Haiuesport, N.J., a corporation of New ersey Filed July 13, 1962, Ser. No. 209,521 4 Claims. (Cl. 92-94) The present invention relates generally to piston type fluid motors having a rolling diaphragm secured between the piston and the cylinder and more specifically to such a motor having fluid pressures acting on both sides of the piston and diaphragm to effect movement thereof. The use of a diaphragm is far more effective than piston rings in preventing fluid leakage between a piston and the cylinder walls. A thin flexible diaphragm forms an air-tight seal and permits the maintaining of fluid pressures in a cylinder chamber over extended periods of time. A limitation of such an arrangement, however, is the inability of a rolling type diaphragm to sustain dominant pressures from alternate sides of a piston due to its doubled-back or folded disposition. A higher or dominant piston-actuating pressure can only be applied on one face of a piston, otherwise the diaphragm may be inclined to reverse its position, causing a possible binding and tearing of the diaphragm. Accordingly, it is a primary object of the present invention to provide a rolling diaphragm fluid motor which may be alternately actuated by fluid pressure forces in either direction without affecting the disposition of the diaphragm. Additional objects and advantages of the invention will be more readily apparent from the following detailed description of an embodiment thereof when taken together with the accompanying drawing which is a sectional elevational view showing an embodiment of the invention operably mounted on a pinch-type valve. Referring to the drawing, an air motor is mounted as the actuating unit on a pinch-valve assembly 12. The pinch valve consists of a cylindrical resilient body 14 having end flanges 16 drilled to correspond with valve yoke 18. Stationary lower pinch bar 20 deforms the body 14 upwardly to provide a seat upon which the opposing body wall may be contacted in sealing relationship upon depression thereof by the vertically movable upper pinch bar 22 as indicated by the broken lines of the drawing. The air motor 10 is operable to actuate the upper pinch bar and thus control flow through the valve. The fluid motor includes upper and lower cylinder members 24 and 26, the lower member being secured to the pinch valve yoke 18 by bolts 28. The lower cylinder member is centrally apertured to provide sliding passage of shaft 30, the lower end of which is threaded for engagement with the upper pinch bar 22. Lock nut 32 on the shaft prevents loosening of the shaft in the pinch bar. A suitable packing gland 34 is secured around the shaft 30 below the lower cylinder member 26 to prevent leakage of fluids from the cylinder. Attached to the upper end of the shaft 30 is piston 36 formed of two similar upper and lower piston elements 37 and 38. Secured between the two piston elements is a thin flexible diaphragm 40 which extends from between the piston elements downwardly along the circumferential face of the lower piston element. The diaphragm is folded back upwardly to the juncture of the upper and lower cylinder members 24 and 26 between which it is secured by clamping means 42. The diameter of the piston elements is such as to provide a suitable clearance between the cylinder walls to permit a rolling action of the diaphragm upon movement of the piston. A coil spring 44 is disposed about the shaft 30 in "ice compression between the lower cylinder member 26 and the lower piston element 38 to provide a continual upward force against the piston. Fluid port 46 provides a fluid entrance and exit from the lower chamber 48 formed by the lower cylinder member 26, the piston, and the diaphragm. A suitable conduit 50 may be connected with the port 46 to contain and direct at fluid flow. To provide fluid access to the upper chamber 52 formed by the upper cylinder member 24 and the piston and diaphragm, an upper fluid port 54 is provided in the upper cylinder member 24. A pressure gauge 56 is connected bymeans of suitable conduit means 58 to indicate fluid pressures within the upper chamber 52. A fluid passage leading into conduit 58 includes a check valve 60 of such construction and so disposed as to permit a fluid flow only into the chamber 52. A pressure regulating valve 62 is connected with the check valve 60 and is coupled to a conduit 64 leading to a pressurized fluid supply. In operation, the pressure regulating valve 62 is adjusted to maintain a predetermined minimum air pressure in the upper chamber 52. The pressure required in the upper chamber will depend in each instance on the downward force required to actuate the shaft 30. In this case, a suflicient pressure must be maintained in the upper chamber 52 so that a sufiicient force will be developed to depress the upper pinch bar 22 against the pinch valve body 14 into the fully closed valve position indicated in broken lines in the drawing. The conduit 50 is attached to a fluid supply means capable of providing variable pressures in the lower chamber 48. To effect an upward movement of the piston, it would normally be necessary to apply a higher pressure to the chamber 48 than exists in the upper chamber 52. However, a higher pressure in the lower chamber would tend to reverse the disposition of the diaphragm which cannot be permitted due to the likelihood of binding and tearing of the diaphragm between the piston and cylinder walls. Additionally, smooth operation of the motor could not be obtained were the diaphragm to reverse prior to each change in direction of the piston. To prevent reversal of the diaphragm, the coil spring 44 is disposed in compression between the lower cylinder member and the piston so as to permit an upward movement of the piston with a lower pressure below the piston than above, the coil spring augmenting the upward force of the lower chamber pressure. As shown in the drawing, the spring is under compression in the highest position of the piston. The pressure in the lower chamber need never exceed the pressure in the upper chamber and the downwardly extending disposition of the diaphragm is continually maintained throughout the operation of the motor. The force of the coil spring should be chosen so as to be suflicient to provide the upward lift required by the mechanism as well as to overcome the frictional and gravitational forces acting on the shaft. The spring must also provide a slight additional upward force to insure upward movement of the piston with a lower chamber pressure beneath the piston. Although theoretically any additional force would suflice, in practice a force of to 10 lbs. is added depending on the size of the motor. In the drawing, the piston is shown in the extreme raised position. The rolling diaphragm in this position is fully supported radially by the piston walls which extend axially to provide such support. Upon release of the air pressure in the lower chamber 48, the trapped air under pressure in the upper chamber actuates the piston and shaft in a downward direction, depressing the upper pinch a 3 bar 22 and closing the pinch valve body 14. To reopen the valve, the air pressure is increased in the lower chamher and provides an upward force, which in conjunction with the spring forceraises the piston and opens the valve. Y ' The rolling diaphragm efiectively seals the chambers, and air leakage from the motor is negligible, particularly from the upperchamberQ Accordingly, it is not necessary that the fixedair supply 64 and the pressure regulator valve 62 be permanently attached to the unit; The upper chamber couldbe charged periodically from a portable air supply should that be a more convenientarrangement. Similarly, the pressure gauge is not essential, but provides an indication'that the upper chamber pressure is suitable for operation of the motor. Checking of the gauge before and during operation would indicate any occurrence of a low pressure conditionwhich might aflect the proper operation of the motor and possibly damage the diaphragm. I Manifestly, changes in details of construction can be effected by those skilled in the artwithout departing from the spirit and the scope of the invention as defined in and limited solely by the appended claims. a I claim: 1. A fluid motor comprising acylinder, a piston movably disposed within said cylinder, a diaphragm secured to said piston and to the walls of said cylinder dividing said cylinder into two fluid chambers, said diaphragm being so disposed between said piston and cylinder as to permit axial movement of said piston within said cylinder, means sealing a first of said chambers to entrap a fluid under pressure therein, a spring disposed in said cylinder operably engaging and urging said piston toward said first chamber, a fluid port for introducing a fluid under variable pressure into the second of said chambers, said diaphragm extending in folded disposition d between said piston and the cylinder walls, the fold of piston in the cylinder thereby maintaining the extended folded disposition of said diaphragm in the direction of said second chamber. 2; A fluid motor as claimed in'claim 1, said cylinder comprising upper and lower cylinder members in contiguous relationship, and said diaphragm being secured between said upper and lower cylinder members. 3. A fluid motor as claimed. in claim 1, said spring being axially disposed in compression in said second chamber. A r 4. A fluid motor as claimed in claim 3, including a shaft secured tov said piston extending through an end of said cylinder for transmitting motion from saidpiston exteriorly of'the cylinder.
