SHAH ALAM: Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak on Saturday handed out RM563mil to 112,635 Felda households under the third phase of windfall handouts specifically targeted at the young generation of settlers.
Each will receive RM5,000 each.
The handout is the final instalment promised by Najib earlier this year, in line with the move to channel profits made by listing Felda Global Ventures on the stock exchange.
The first handout of RM5,000 was given to the settlers and the second RM5,000 to their wives.
"The Barisan Nasional government has never broken a promise. 'Janji
ditepati' is not just a slogan," Najib told some 12,000 settlers at
the Felda New Generation gathering here at Universiti Teknologi Mara.
He said the windfall was possible due to the successful listing of
Felda Global Ventures Holdings (FGVH), which the Opposition tried to
"They only know how to condemn, incite and make empty promises. They
do not seek anything beneficial, but want to ruin our good effort. Do
not dream of getting RM15,000 (if the Opposition takes over the
government)," he said.
From the FGVH IPO, the group managed to unlock about RM10.5bil in
value, in which its principal shareholder Felda has received about
RM6bil while FGVH takes up RM4.5bil for its expansion mission.

Silver Oak Cabernet Sauvignon Alexander Valley 2010
Silver Oak - California - United States - Sonoma Valley - Alexander Valley
Our 2010 Alexander Valley Cabernet Sauvignon is a vibrant, elegant expression of this classic appellation from a cooler vintage. It has a deep garnet color and an enticing nose of cassis liqueur, blueberry coulis, tobacco, tarragon and roasting coffee. The seamless palate starts with a berry-laden attack, follows with a full-bodied mid-palate, and ends with a long, savory finish with fine-grained, well-integrated tannins. Given proper cellaring, this wine should give drinking pleasure through 2031.

Silver Oak
Vintage: 2010
2010 saw extremely high quality viticulture in many parts of the world, with an exceptionally long and hot summer providing huge benefits for wineries across many countries, especially in the southern hemisphere. The northern hemisphere and Europe saw something of a cooler summer and flowering period, but this was by no means as disastrous as it could have been. France, especially, had a fantastic year in 2010, with the world renowned Burgundy region proclaiming that their white wines of this year are ones to look out for, and despite yields being relatively small across much of the country, the quality was exceptionally high. Spain, too, received some cooler weather, but Rioja and the rest of central Spain are hailing 2010 as a very good year indeed, again as a result of smaller, finer yields. California also received similar climatic conditions, but again, wineries are highly positive about the overall effect this had on their produce, as the slightly challenging conditions resulted in smaller yields of much elegance and distinction. 2010 was really Australia's year, and in South Australia and across the Mornington Peninsula, Chardonnay vines produced good yields with a lower sugar level than in previous years. As such, the majority of South Australian white wines from 2010 are superb, and packed full of character. Shiraz also had a great year, and most Australian wineries have been proclaiming 2010 one of the great vintages. Both the Argentinian and Chilean wine industries benefited from some ideal climatic conditions this year, and are reportedly ecstatically pleased with the fact that their 2010 wines ended up with lower alcohol levels, and were beautifully balanced wines packed full of flavor.
Varietal: Cabernet Sauvignon
Since their conception in 18th century France, Cabernet Sauvignon grapes have flourished across the Old and New Worlds and have changed the way we think about red wine forever. Their sharp and astringent nature has a wonderful ability to mellow and round with age, and when helped by being blended with Merlot and Petit Verdot or Cabernet Franc varietals – as is done in Bordeaux and elsewhere – the results can be truly remarkable. What is most special about Cabernet Sauvignon grapes is the fact that they have a true affinity for oak, and when aged in barrels made of this fragrant wood, the wine which comes out of them a few years later holds an amazing array of flavors and aromas, making Cabernet Sauvignon based wines some of the most memorable in the world. Single variety bottles from the New World made from this grape are also increasing in popularity, as the strong flavors and full-bodied nature of these wines is a great match for many global cuisines.
Region: California
It isn't difficult to see how California became one of the world's most important, successful and influential wine regions. Since the first vines were planted in the state by Spanish pioneers in the 18th century, the region has made the most of its ideal climatic conditions, which range from hot, dry and arid to windswept and cool, for vineyard cultivation and wine production. Today, California has almost half a million acres under vine, and hundreds of independent and well established wineries dotted across its vast wine-making areas. Californian wines range from the traditional, and those emulating fine Old World wines, to the experimental and unique, and it is the home to many of the world's most exciting and trailblazing wineries producing excellent bottles for the global market.
Country: United States
Whilst there are several strains of native grape varietals in the United States, it was the introduction of the European species which prompted the country to begin producing wines on a large scale. Over the past few centuries, experimentation and cross-breeding has produced great successes in regards to the quality and suitability of the fruit grown in states such as California, Oregon, Washington and New York, and the past few decades have seen New World wines from the United States reach much higher standards. Arguably the finest United States wines have always come out of California, where the climate and terrroir is most suitable for fine wine production. The masterful blending of classic grape varietals such as Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot, amongst others including Syrah and Chardonnay, have had world beating results in recent years, prompting many to suggest that there has never been a better time for buying and drinking United States wines.
Appellation: Sonoma Valley
Often referred to as the 'birthplace of Californian wines', the beautiful and expansive Sonoma Valley has long been seen as something of a vibrant and beating heart within the American wine industry. The 'valley of the moon', as it is affectionately known, benefits enormously from the blazing Californian sunshine it receives throughout the long, hot and dry summers, and exceptionally warm autumns in which the vast array of grape varietals found there ripen. Sonoma Valley is most famous for big, full-bodied and flavorful red wine grapes, such as Cabernet Sauvignon, as well as many excellent white wine grapes. Due to the volcanic soils of the region, fed by thermal springs packed full of minerals, the soil is wonderfully fertile and capable of supporting a wide variety of grape species.

Fluorescent staining techniques were used for a systematic examination of methods used to cryopreserve microbial cell banks. The aim of cryopreservation here is to ensure subsequent reproducible fermentation performance rather than just post thaw viability. Bacillus licheniformis cell physiology post-thaw is dependent on the cryopreservant (either Tween 80, glycerol or dimethyl sulphoxide) and whilst this had a profound effect on the length of the lag phase, during subsequent 5 l fed-batch fermentations, it had little effect on maximum specific growth rate, final biomass concentration or α-amylase activity. Tween 80 not only protected the cells during freezing but also helped them recover post-thaw resulting in shorter process times.

Recently, the ENT Academy in collaboration with Moxshlife Foundation conducted a free ENT check-up camp for five days for police officials and their family from 6 police stations of zone 1. It was found that over 65 per cent of police officials suffer from Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) and 10% have hearing problems.
Dr. Harish Chadva from the ENT Academy, who checked a few police officials, informs, "Police officials have a very different lifestyle and as they don't have any fixed time for lunch, owing to their work, it leads to GERD. During training, they are involved in a lot of physical activity, but once they are at their work station, they don't follow any routine because their work is such. It would be advisable to have their meals at regular intervals and treat the problems well in time. Regarding the hearing problems, the doctor says, "Some cops have been suffering from this problem because they have a history and had a cold in their childhood."
Though the problem is curable, the doctor advises them to take good care of their health and exercise and regularly to keep healthy. He also explains that initially the problem may not be much, but as time passes, it may aggravate and lead to complications.
We also spoke to Dr Alok Modi from Kevalya Hospital to know more about the disease. He says, "When one suffers from Reflux, acid forms in the food pipe and since the eating schedule is irregular, the body also releases the acids accordingly, which leads to GERD." Talking about another common reason for the disease he says, "Chewing tobacco and smoking is very common among cops and these could cause the problem. A lot of fried food, mental stress and junk are also contributors. Though the disease is not deadly, if it is not treated on time, it may lead to ulcers and, ultimately, cancer too."
To combat these diseases, doctors advise that patients ought to increase fiber intake, raw vegetables and avoid eating fatty food as well as tea and coffee, and most importantly, fixing meal times.
To combat these diseases, doctors have certain do's and dont's:
Increase fiber intake and raw vegetablesHave fixed meal timesRegular sleep cycle
Fatty foodTea and coffee

Unreal Engine 3 Free (or Not) for Game Developers
So unreal the name, so real the news: Epic Games is providing its Unreal Engine 3 free to developers. It isn't open source, but game developers can implement it for noncommercial games and applications.
The udk.com website has the so-called Unreal Development Kit (UDK) ready for download and includes licensing details. Students, teachers, researchers, artists and other users can employ UDK free for their projects so long as they don't profit commercially from it, including income from advertising, sponsorship and the like. Under these terms, the Unreal Engine is intended for learning purposes and developing free games and modules.
Yet Epic Games still wants to profit from independent game developers, who will pay a $99 annual license fee for the privilege of implementing the engine for commercial purposes. If earnings from the resulting game are less than $5,000, developers have no further royalty to pay; anything over that amount incurs a 25% royalty.
Initially UDK is implemented for PC game development. Epic Games cooperates with NVIDIA, because Unreal Engine 3 has its PhysX physics engine on board. The Unreal engine supports high dynamic range rendering, dynamic shading, pixel-based lighting, EAX 5.0 and many other modern features. Unreal-developed games include Unreal Tournament 3 and Batman: Arkham Asylum among quite a few.
NOT LINUX, but I think UT 3 runs on linux or you could just use wine to run itDon't no why this is here on linux magazine online website, but for a random note maybe myst online will open source and make a linux port or wait it's says it's open source but theirs no linux port of it, I still have the offline version of it and realmyst which are just as fun, maybe the next myst or uru game will run on Unreal 3, that would be fun, Hint Hint Cyan make a new myst online game and use unreal 3, I think the people would like it that way, or not. from what I saw of the rain effects for ipod only 3rd and 4th versions, that app that has to do with development , or even porting uru to unreal , like the maps and adding effects and more nature would be cool too, or porting realmyst to unreal3 engine, like the whole game and update it standards to that of unreal 3 engine would be cool, like more natural and any other thing it could do, but I would prefer either xbox 360 games of them or just pc games of realmyst with unreal 3 engine or uru in unreal 3 engine online or offline ports of the games with updated stuff if cyan could do so, I don't no if they have what it takes to get this done, also I would not play in on ipod or ipad , I own a 2nd gen but it will not even transfer to such a ipod, so I can't even run their so called demo but my pc and xbox have the hardware to do these games I have 8gb in the pc its anuff power to handle that engine I think , with a nvidia card , I plan to play with it's develment pack to see what I can do with it
huh?Indeed, this is news not related to Linux (or *nix for that matter). Could the author explain why this is posted?
What about me?No Amiga version? This is a capital offense!
Huh?What does this have to do with Linux?
Why care?Forgot to mention there isn't a Linux version. Was there a point to this article?

US-Russia nuke treaty facing hurdles in US Senate
WASHINGTON The once smooth path for Senate ratification of a major nuclear arms control agreement with Russia is looking a little dicier.
Conservatives opposing New START, a replacement for a Cold War-era treaty, are trying to make it an issue in November's congressional elections.
While they are unlikely to kill the agreement, they could force Democrats to delay a ratification vote until after the election. That could be damaging to President Barack Obama. A narrow victory after a lengthy, contentious debate could destroy his hopes for achieving more ambitious goals, including further reductions of nuclear weapons and ratification of a nuclear test ban treaty.
"A delayed ratification with a close vote would be a blow to U.S. leadership around the world," said Joseph Cirincione, president of the Ploughshares Fund, a foundation that advocates a world free of nuclear weapons. "People would doubt the president's ability to negotiate other agreements."
The administration still hopes to win approval for New START before the Senate begins its summer break in August. To do that would require the support of at least eight Republicans, along with all 57 Democratic and two independent senators to achieve the necessary two-thirds majority in the 100-member Senate.
The administration is expressing confidence, but so far only one Republican senator, Richard Lugar of Indiana, has announced his support.
Administration officials say they could wait until the "lame duck" session that takes place after November's election, but before new lawmakers are sworn in. The White House does not want to postpone a vote until next year because Republicans are expected to pick up seats in the election.
Obama and Russian President Dmitry Medvedev signed the New START agreement in April. It would shrink the limit on strategic warheads to 1,550 for each country, down about a third from the current ceiling of 2,200. It also would make changes in the old treaty's procedures that allow both countries to inspect each other's arsenals and verify compliance.
An affiliate of the Heritage Foundation, a conservative think tank, has taken the lead in opposing the treaty. The Heritage Action for America, an advocacy group, has started a petition drive and may run political advertisements on the issue during the election season. It also is lobbying in the Senate.
Though arms control is hardly a major issue in a campaign season dominated by economic worries, the divisive political environment makes it difficult for Republicans to buck the conservative mainstream and hand Obama a victory that might be considered his top foreign policy achievement.
Tom Daschle, a former Democratic Senate Majority leader, who supports the treaty, says Heritage's influence may explain why so many Republicans have been reticent about taking a stand.
"It is certainly serious enough to silence some Republican senators," he said. He added that he expected enough Republicans eventually would come around for passage.
Heritage won some prominent support when a likely GOP presidential candidate, Mitt Romney, announced opposition to the treaty in a newspaper column this month.
Some Republicans say that U.S. negotiators made too many concessions and that that the treaty does not establish adequate procedures for making sure the two sides abide by its terms. They also fear that Russia could use the treaty to limit U.S. missile defense plans.

Today is...
(Edit, 2011: Today is actually Sept. 10th, but I think I'm going to spend tomorrow avoiding TVs, radios, and computers. Be good to each other, everybody.)
September 11th, 2005.
I painted this in December of 2001, but thought I'd post it today.

Thanks for sharing! It's a beautiful piece.

Wow, that is really symbolically gorgeous Tristan, a beautiful homage to those who died.
I still remember back to that day, it was unbelievable, like out of a movie or something, seemed so surreal.

so? it's also many people's birthdays, many people's anniversaries, many people's dying days.
i've just, never really cared. until i saw ground zero in new york. then i realised how big it was. but it's stupid that there're building a memorial tower there. it just hits me as wasted money and space.
p.s anybody notice that the two towers' silouette spelled out the number 11? it's a little freaky.

I just watched this award-winning documentary of the two french brothers who were there at this time actually to make a movie about the fire department...
I watched it the first time shortly after the disaster and yesterday the second time...
I recommend it to everyone who wants to know how it was like to be right there when it happened...
ps: Elwell...i think if the melted wax were at the inner side of the candle it would look more like a tear (since tears come out there usually)...nevertheless a very nice piece...

Elwell- I think that picture is amazing. Thank you for sharing.

Beautiful piece! My brother and his wife was in the towers the day before they were destroyed and lived in a hotel very near. We were sick of worrying, so far away and all we saw was fire and smoke right where they were staying. They were ok, but soon after we started to realize just how many people were killed, oh man.
broken lizard - it will be my pleasure to call you a fucking idiot! If you dont know shit, dont talk. And dont post in this thread again!

woah, this happened in 2001?
didn't seem like that long ago. i remember watching the news in my architechtural drafting class. we were actually going over the tensile, shear and compression strenth of different steels, and also some stuff about ANSI standards.
kinda strange and ironic, when i think about it.
yeah, and at 16 years old, i didn't care that much. first thing i did was fold up a paper airplane and throw it, and laugh. like an idiot. jeeeez. *slaps forhead*

Sept. 11th, 2001.
I came into the office, turned on the radio, and the dj was going on about "the truly dramatic events in New York on this remarkable day..." No mention of what had just happend. They then went into their music.
I recall this vividly. I could tell he was shaken, so I went into the living room (working at home has its advantages) and turned on the t.v.
Oh. Fuck. That is what he was talking about. I think I watched t.v. for four days straight trying to grasp what happend.
I'm sometimes stunned by the historic events that I've witnessed, that we all have, really, in recent years. And I think of what the world was like when I was a kid and what I thought it would be like when I got to be an adult, and I think about what the world is like now that *I* have kids and what it will be like when *they're* adults...
Better, I hope.

Legionnaires caused by unsterilized ice
Four patients at an Arizona hospital were incorrectly diagnosed with Legionnaires' disease last year because of un-sterilized ice, health officials said.
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's Mortality and Morbidity Weekly Report said unsterilized ice for bronchoscopies — inspection inside the lungs using a flexible tube and video camera — can transmit Legionella bacteria, which may lead to incorrect diagnosis.
Investigators said ice from two machines that were connected to the hospital's water system, which was contaminated with the bacteria Legionella, was used in bronchoscopies. As as result, the patients were incorrectly diagnosed with Legionnaires' disease, when in reality, they had been contaminated by the ice used in the bronchoscopies.
This investigation shows the importance of routine Legionella testing and the need to protect patient safety by following guidelines on proper use and sterilization of medical equipment, the report said.
Legionnaires' disease is a serious form of pneumonia that patients can develop if they are exposed to water that is contaminated with Legionella bacteria.

Learning Delivery + Collaboration

Learning, Collaboration & Retention
Academic adoption was lower than desired despite clear student feedback requesting a higher online component. Aston University had two online learning environments, split approximately 50:50, with each being managed locally by schools and having reached their respective adoption plateaus. As a result, there was uncertainty about how the University would further develop its eLearning capability and capacity. There was also concern about how it would be able to meet student and staff expectations. Without a clear path forward, the opportunities to enhance learning and teaching through technology would be elusive.
Aston engaged Blackboard Consulting's Strategic Planning team to review and assess the drivers, objectives, institution-wide implications, priorities, organizational issues, key decisions, and options. Following the Strategic Review, the consensus was to move to a single online platform. The findings from this Strategic Planning phase were critical in establishing the framework for subsequent Project and Technical Planning stages. They were used to develop timelines, determine success criteria, and start a transition that was focused on increased user adoption and engagement.
Blackboard Consulting's Strategic Planning services laid the foundation for the smooth convergence of two Virtual Learning Environments, but more importantly two distinct user communities, resulting in the seamless implementation of the Blackboard Learn™ platform and the success of online learning at Aston. By working together as a team, Aston and Blackboard had a clear understanding of the University's current baseline, issues and opportunities. They were able to design and implement a customized plan to bring the University's two Virtual Learning Environment communities together on a single platform. Now students, faculty and staff are actively engaged in online learning as a single community, and thriving as they explore and use the many new tools and opportunities for collaboration, communications and learning.

The CRPF, which recently took over the duties of guarding RIL chairman Mukesh Ambani, has raised concerns in ensuring a 'fool proof' Z category security to the business tycoon in the absence of local logistical support to its squad.
The para-military force has written to the Union Home ministry alerting it about possible limitations its personnel may face in the event of an attack on Mr. Ambani who has been given VIP security.
Official sources said the CRPF has desired that the Home Ministry take immediate steps and notify all the states in the country to provide a local police squad whenever the VIPs under its elite 'Z' category cover move in their respective jurisdictions.
Also, they said local intelligence and data on topography should be provided to its 28-member squad commander moving along with the protectee.
The Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF) has recently deployed an elite squad of its commandos for securing Ambani who has been accorded a 'Z' category security after the Home Ministry analysed security threats to the industrialist and found them to be 'positive'
The force has reasoned that its security team deployed with the VIP is a mix of commandos coming from various parts of the country and they do not always know escape routes and potential threats particular to an area and at the place where the VIP they are securing is on the move, like in Mumbai or Kolkata.
The CRPF has asked notification of this arrangement in specific context of Ambani, whose security duty it has just taken over, while it has also asked for providing a similar facility to its new 'Z' class protectees.
It has recently taken over the security of media personality and former Minister of State for Parliamentary Affairs Matang Singh under the same category.
With Mr. Ambani's security under its belt, this is the first time that the CRPF is providing VIP security to a private person on the lines of a similar cover it extends to government functionaries in Jammu and Kashmir and Punjab.
In the case of Mr. Ambani, the security expenditure will be borne by him which is estimated to cost about Rs 15-16 lakh per month.
Under the 'Z' category security, Mr. Ambani will have pilot and follow-on vehicles with commandos armed with sophisticated weapons and they will give him proximate security every time he moves in Mumbai or any other part of country.
A security and threat analysis conducted by central security agencies earlier had recommended that Mr. Ambani should be provided round-the-clock armed security cover after which the Home Ministry issued the orders in this regard and asked the CRPF to take up the task.
The CRPF subsequently earmarked a 28-member team for the job, taking personnel out from its battalion based in Uttar Pradesh.
Sometime back, Mr. Ambani's office had also informed the Mumbai police about threat letters being issued to the honcho purportedly on behalf of the home grown terror group Indian Mujahideen (IM).

The Next Full Moon is the Flower Moon
Apologies for missing last month's post. Gordon Johnston wrote up the astronomical forecast, as always, but I didn't get around to re-posting it here. Hopefully this month's will make up for it…
The next full Moon will be on Thursday afternoon, April 25, 2013, passing opposite the Sun in Earth-based longitude at 3:57 pm EDT. The Moon will appear full for about 3 days around this time, from Wednesday morning (possibly even Tuesday evening) through Saturday morning. As usual, suitably celebratory celestial costuming could be considered in support of our sated Selene.

Police Beat: Friday, May 3, 2013
A 38-year-old woman fired a shotgun at the feet of a boy walking on property near her house Thursday, Collier sheriff's deputies said.
Ruby Inez Johns, whose address isn't listed, faces a single charge of aggravated assault with a deadly weapon without intent to kill following her arrest.
Witnesses said Johns fired a shotgun once after shouting at a 17-year-old walking on the easement between her house and another home. The shot came as the teen was leaving the property, deputies said.
Johns told deputies the 17-year-old refused to leave, prompting her to fire a shot at a nearby tree, an arrest report said.
Johns remained in jail Friday evening with no bond set.

Dragan Vasiljković (Serbian Cyrillic: Драган Васиљковић, born 12 December 1954) nicknamed Captain Dragan (Serbian: Kapetan Dragan/Капетан Драган) was a founder and captain of the Serbian paramilitary unit called the Knindže (Knin ninjas, Red berets).[citation needed] Currently imprisoned in Australia, he is accused of war crimes by the Republic of Croatia, wanted by Interpol.[1] In March 2010, the High Court of Australia ordered him to prison in order to extradite him to Croatia to face prosecution for his alleged crimes.[2] Dragan Vasiljković was arrested again in Australia on 12 May 2010 after being on the run for six weeks following a court ruling approving his extradition to Croatia for war crimes, among others for Knin camp.[3]
Early life[edit]
Dragan Vasiljković was born on 12 December 1954 in a Serbian Orthodox family in Belgrade[citation needed]. His father Živorad died in a motorcycle accident while Dragan was still young. At the age of 3, he was briefly placed in foster home Dragutin Filipović Jusa because his mother could not raise three children on her own.[citation needed]
In 1967 he went to Australia with his mother and two siblings under the name Daniel Snedden. After he finished high school in Melbourne he worked in a photo shop.[citation needed] He spent 4 years in the Australian Army's reserve unit 4th/19th Prince of Wales's Light Horse. After his military service, he served as a weapons instructor in Africa and South America. He was sailing around the world and stayed in Serbia in 1988 where he set up a boat and airplane charter business.[citation needed] He was convicted of criminal charges in relation to brothel ownership in Elsternwick, a suburb of Melbourne, Australia during the 1980s.[4] He also worked as a golf instructor in Australia.
Croatian War[edit]
He returned to Belgrade in May 1990, as Croatia held its first democratic parliamentary elections.[citation needed] In Belgrade, Captain Dragan met Saša Medaković, one of the leaders of the barricades in Krajina following the "Log Revolution" in August.[citation needed] Medaković was a friend of Knin chief of police Milan Martić (later convicted of war crimes at The Hague), and was an employee of Krajina state security. Captain Dragan visited Krajina in the autumn 1990.[citation needed] There, he met Martić and claimed that the defence of Krajina appeared "very disorganised".[citation needed] He thus decided to help organise the Krajina defence. On his return to Belgrade, he attempted to gather support for his effort, and became a member of the opposition Serbian Renewal Movement.[citation needed] He then returned to the United States to complete his aviator training.[citation needed]
During the March 1991 Belgrade upheaval when the Serbian Renewal Movement's challenge to the government was met with tanks in the streets, Captain Dragan was compelled to return there. Again, Milovanov had him in contact with Serbian State Security personnel, among them Franko Simatović.[citation needed] Simatović told him of his Krajina-related activities that if his bosses were to learn about it, he would probably be arrested and dismissed.[citation needed] On 4 April, Captain Dragan went to Krajina to work for Milan Martić.[5]
On 25 June 1991, Croatia proclaimed its independence; soon after, war broke out in Croatia. He served during the Croatian War of Independence under the newly created Republic of Serbian Krajina as a volunteer; International Criminal Tribunal for the former Yugoslavia prosecutors claim that this service took place under Serbian police auspices, and media even reported that he claimed this during his testimony at the Slobodan Milošević trial in 2003. Milošević asked him of this, and to this he replied "I was speaking exclusively of the Service of Krajina, the Police of Krajina or the Army of Krajina or the JNA until the Vance plan".[citation needed]
Asked if "at any time was there a unit of the MUP (Ministry of the Internal Affairs) of Serbia?" in Krajina with him, he replied that Jovica Stanisic once made an informal visit and Frenki Simatović came three or four times.[citation needed] He was asked if Stanisic and Simatovic ever gave him any orders.[citation needed] He replied that they did not and were in no position to, and did not know nor were they qualified to know.[citation needed]
He commanded special units known as Red Berets (not to be confused with the Special Operations Unit or JSO founded in Serbia in 1996) or Knindže after the Krajina's capital of Knin and ninja fighters.[citation needed] He trained units at Krajina's Golubić training camp for which he was allegedly paid by the State Security Service of Serbia;[6] he denied this at the Milosevic trial, despite his role as a prosecution witness. He added that the only time that the Serbian State Security paid him was for a 28-day stint in 1997 "to monitor exercises"; his fee was 2,200 dinars.[7] He was allied with Interior Minister Milan Martić in his power struggle with president Milan Babić, whom he described as "dishonest, a man who was not of his word."[citation needed] Martić, in contrast, he considered to be "a man of honour and a man of his word."[citation needed] In November 1991, Babić called Vojislav Šešelj to Knin to help him thwart what he believed to be a coup attempt being planned by Captain Dragan himself.[citation needed] According to Šešelj, "Captain Dragan interfered and started a rebellion among the army ranks", and organised a rally of military personnel.[citation needed] Šešelj toured the front lines and in the media explained to people that "those who want internal conflicts while an armed clash is still going on cannot be friends of the Serb people."[citation needed] The rally, Šešelj said, proved a failure and Babic remained in power.[8] Šešelj also testified at the Milosevic trial that Captain Dragan had a training camp in Golubic.[9] Vasiljković ran for president of Serbia in 1992, placing fourth with 1.86% of the vote.[citation needed]
During the war, he founded the Fond Kapetan Dragan aimed at helping victims of war.[7] Vasiljković became a type of folk hero to some over the course of the war. Nationalist Serbian singer Boro Drljača released a song titled Kapetan Dragan in 1991.[10]
Life in Serbia[edit]
After the end of combat in Croatia and Bosnia and Herzegovina, Vasiljković returned to Serbia where he lived for several years.[citation needed]Vasiljković was involved in the Serbian Renewal Movement.[11] He maintained his friendship with Franko Simatović, and in 2001 stated that he would defend him in court if necessary.[12] Simatović was arrested and transferred to the International Criminal Tribunal for the former Yugoslavia (ICTY) in 2003.[citation needed] Vasiljković reemerged in the spotlight after he testified against Slobodan Milošević in 2004 at the ICTY, and subsequently moved back to Perth, Western Australia.[13]
Allegation of war crimes[edit]
In September 2005 an article in The Australian newspaper accused Dragan Vasiljković of war crimes as a Serbian paramilitary commander between 1991 and 1994.[14] Vasiljković made a short return to Serbia and held a press conference in Belgrade before returning to Australia.[15] He then lodged a public defamation case against the publishing company Nationwide News for the article.[citation needed] In December 2009 the court ruled in favor of Nationwide News and ordered Vasiljković to pay them $1.2 million.[16]
Vasiljković was arrested on the basis of a Croatian warrant on 19 January.[citation needed] He is accused by the Republic of Croatia of being responsible for soldiers under his command allegedly torturing, beating and killing captured members of Croatian Army and Police between June and July 1991 in a prison on the fortress in Knin,[17] and also for making plans to attack and take over the Glina Police station, a near city village Jukince and the villages Gornji i Donji Viduševac in February 1993 at Benkovac (in agreement with the commander of the tank unit JNA).[citation needed] It is alleged during that attack, against the Geneva convention, civil buildings were damaged and ruined, Croatian citizens were forced to escape, their property requirements of as robbed and civilians (among them was a foreign journalist) were wounded and killed.[citation needed] Those accusations were made public after the newspaper The Australian reported a story about him.[14] Dragan subsequently sued The Australian for defamation.[citation needed] In July 2007, the Supreme Court held that 6 out of 10 imputations in that article were defamatory (The Australian – Majority rules Dragan defamed).[citation needed] However, in December 2009, a judge ruled that Captain Dragan "committed torture and rape" and that The Australian article from 2005 proved that Vasiljković participated and committed the allegations against him.[18][19] Vasiljković rejects the claims, and will appeal the ruling.[citation needed]
The ICTY Hague Tribunal had named Vasiljković as a "participant in a joint criminal enterprise" against Croats and other non-Serbs in the Martic decision, but did not request his arrest.[citation needed] He gave evidence against Slobodan Milosevic at the Hague without immunity.[citation needed] All of the others named are either already on trial at the Hague or at large.[20] In 2005, ICTY spokesperson Florence Hartmann announced that Vasiljković had been under investigation, but that it had stopped due to the mandate on the tribunal to finish its work.[21]
In December 2006, Vasiljković's bid to prevent his extradition hearing from going ahead failed in the Sydney Magistrates Court.[citation needed] His grounds of defense were that as a Serbian Captain, he believed that he would be facing a biased Croatian Court and that no evidence of the allegations are required under the Extradition Act 1988 (House of Commons Extradition Requirements – Section 10) for an Australian citizen to be extradited.[citation needed]
Already in June 2006, the High Court dismissed an application seeking to declare the Extradition Act and Regulations with its "no evidence" model invalid.[citation needed] The High Court remitted the case to the Federal Court of Australia to determine whether or not he is protected by International Law.[citation needed] The Federal Court will also review the Local Court determination that he will receive a fair trial in Croatia.[citation needed] The case is next before Justice Cowdroy in November. Vasiljković has been in custody since January 2006.[citation needed][citation needed]
On 12 April 2007, authorities in Sydney granted Croatia's extradition request, with Vasiljković being held pending appeal at Parklea Correctional Centre in its maximum security section on protection. As an alleged war criminal, he is in a cell by himself, but has been given a guitar and is allowed to have a pen and paper.[citation needed] He wishes to enroll on the electoral roll as he is an Australian citizen but as yet he has been unable to do so.[citation needed] He is also prevented from speaking to members of the press.[citation needed] By April 2007, the Serbian community of Australia had spent over $500,000 on Vasiljković's defence.[22]
On 3 February 2009 Vasiljković appeal against extradition to Croatia was rejected by the Federal Court of Australia.[23],[24] Among those coming to the defence of Vasiljković was the Serbian Orthodox bishop of Australia and New Zealand Irinej Dobrijević.[25]
On 2 September Federal Court of Australia ruled that "there was a substantial or real chance of prejudice if he was extradited to Croatia, ordering release, pending appeal.[26] He subsequently walked free from Parklea prison in Sydney's west on 4 September 2009.[citation needed]
The Australian government appealed the ruling, which was successfully overturned.[citation needed] Courts ruled that Vasiljković should be extradited to Croatia.[citation needed] However, the Australian Federal Police subsequently lost track of him.[27]
In March 2010 the High Court of Australia overturned the Federal Court decision allowing the Australian Federal Government to extradite Vasiljković to Croatia for war crimes. After the ruling ordering his extraction, Vasiljković was nowhere to be found.[28]
Final arrest and appeals[edit]
Vasiljković was caught again by the Australian Federal Police at the Harwood slipyard on the Clarence River on 12 May 2010, having evaded police for 43 days.[29][30] Vasiljković had bought a yacht in which he had been living in and repairing with the intent to flee the country.[30] Intelligence received by the Netherlands police stated that Vasiljkovic sent his former lawyer Brad Slowgrove to the country to plead that his case be moved to the International Criminal Tribunal.[31] Slowgrove, had been disbarred from practicing law due to threatening NSW magistrate Allan Moore, who was hearing the Vasiljkovic extradition in 2006, with "severe personal consequences."[32] Because of this, he was flagged once entering the Netherlands, and Dutch police were able to provide information to Australian police that Vasiljković was still hiding in Australia. Vasiljković's location was tracked after he made a call to Franko Simatović at the International Criminal Tribunal for the former Yugoslavia.[33]
On 19 May, the Australian Court rejected Vasiljković's defence that Croatian courts would not give him a fair trial and that claims that Croatian courts had been more lenient towards Croats were "scanty" and "feeble".[34][35] Australia's Federal Court upheld the ruling four months later, rejecting an appeal made by Vasiljković.[36]
On 16 November 2012 the Australian Government and prime minister Julia Gillard decided to extradite Vasiljković to Croatia. The decision is the first war crimes extradition conducted by Australia.[37] Vasiljković appealed the decision, but on 12 December 2014 the Full Federal Court rejected the appeal, clearing him for extradition to Croatia.[38][39]
On 15 May 2015 the High Court of Australia refused Vasiljković leave to appeal the December 2014 Federal Court ruling because of the unlikelihood of a successful outcome for him. Following this refusal, Vasiljković had no remaining legal avenues to challenge his extradition.[40]

The Left parties on Tuesday said the nationwide strike call against price rise had met with a big response in most parts of the country and reflected the anger and discontent among the people at the failure of the Manmohan Singh government on this front.
The 12-hour strike was called by 13 non-UPA, non-NDA parties as a mark of solidarity with the people. MPs belonging to the parties held a protest outside the main entrance of Parliament and later stalled proceedings in both Houses.
Congratulating the people who responded to the call, the Communist Party of India said it was a vivid example of the common man's indignation and discontent.
The strike owed its success to the united action of those who made it their common cause.
In a statement, the party Central Secretariat said the UPA government should take the public mood into account and take the necessary steps that the Left and other parties have been proposing all along.
It added that the parties would soon meet to decide the next step to force the government to act.
The All-India Forward Bloc said the people who were suffering came forward spontaneously in various parts of the country to make the strike a success.
In a statement, the Communist Party of India (Marxist) said the response was complete in Bihar, Uttar Pradesh, West Bengal, Jharkhand, Assam, Orissa, Kerala and Tripura.
In Andhra Pradesh, the response was positive all over the State, with the strike being partial in Hyderabad.
In Tamil Nadu, there was strike all over the State, with Chennai having a partial bandh. In West Bengal, there was a total stoppage of work and movement of traffic. All cities and town markets in U.P. were closed and rail and road traffic was affected in many places.
The CPI(M) said there was a total strike in all the districts in Bihar.
Rail and road traffic was disrupted due to a rail and road blockade.
Markets, commercial establishments and educational institutions remained closed.
In Jharkhand, markets were closed and rail and road traffic came to a halt. Several State government offices remained closed.

Following a period of high performance, the financial crisis brought difficult conditions for the hedge fund industry. During 2010 the continued fallout from Madoff and other fraud cases, along with the new provisions of the Dodd-Frank Act and the AIFM directive, have had a wide impact on global funds. The balance of power appears to have swung from managers to investors who are demanding greater transparency. Although there is some optimism, there is also newfound realism, and the outlook for 2011 remains difficult to call.
Following on from 2009, which showed the best performance figures in a decade with average returns around 20 percent, 2010 has brought mixed results as volatility and high correlation lead to a challenging environment for hedge fund managers.
