Obama urges Congress to help US economy
Published on Oct 6, 2012 11:23 AM
US President Barack Obama urged Congress Saturday to adopt a series of measures that he said would help working Americans as he hailed new unemployment numbers as evidence that America is "moving forward again".
"Four years after the worst economic crisis of our lifetimes, we're seeing signs that, as a nation, we're moving forward again," the president said in his weekly radio and Internet address.
"More Americans are entering the workforce. More Americans are getting jobs," the president added.
The comments came after the Labor Department reported Friday the creation of 114,000 jobs, an achievement that brought the nation's unemployment rate down from 8.1 percent to 7.8 percent, the lowest level since Obama took office in January 2009.
The new figures challenged critics, including Republican rival Mitt Romney, who said Obama could not make good on his pledge to bring unemployment below 8.0 percent by the end of his first four-year term in office.
It was also lower than forecasts for this year by the Federal Reserve, which embarked on a QE3 stimulus program in September mainly because of the persistence of high joblessness.
Overall, 12.1 million Americans remained officially unemployed, down from 13.9 million in September 2011, when the jobless rate was 9.0 percent.
Another 6.7 million were counted as having given up looking for a job but still wanting one, up from 6.2 million a year earlier.
Obama acknowledged that too many Americans were "still looking for work or struggling to pay the bills" and urged Congress to act to alleviate their plight.
He said lawmakers needed to extend tax cuts adopted under former President George W. Bush for the overwhelming majority of working American that expire at the end of the year.
The president also called for helping responsible homeowners by giving them a chance to refinance their mortgages at lower interest rates.
Obama said that Congress needed to pass a plan to create a veterans jobs corps to help returning military veterans find work as police officers, firefighters or park rangers in communities across the country.
"If we're going to keep this economy moving forward, there's no time for political games," the president said. "Even in a political season. Everyone needs to do their part."

Om Unit flexes wise weight on Aeolian EP.
Jim Coles is known by a few names. He was already a staple in the London scratch DJ community when he went by the pseudonym 2tall. In the interview below, Coles describes how he eventually grew tired of "making music that no one gave a shit about," and for the past two years he's been known as Om Unit.
Om Unit has been eagerly prolific since his latest name change. His third work for Civil Music, Aeolian EP features "Dark Sunrise," which serves as a well made stage for London songbird Tamara Blessa, and it was the first single from Aeolian EP to grab me by the neck. The track has a strong dub vibration, staying true to the reggae roots of UK bass music while subtly showing Om Unit's seasoned experience in the music scene.
No doubt, Jim Coles has witnessed all the strange mutations the music has gone through in the past decade or so–mutating from garage to 2-step, dubstep and the current incarnation labeled loosely under the umbrella term "bass music."
Om Unit rides the unpredictable waves of his manic music scene while stretching the boundaries of the genre. He nabbed London video producers Bison to make a darkly tinged techno odyssey out of "Ulysses." The color scheme well reflects the aesthetic of the underground.
Om Unit's latest release "Old English" isn't featured on Aeolian EP. With the EP already under his belt, the Sweatson Klank collaboration shows that Om Unit is presently at work on the next new vibe to bless your chest.
Keep the sinewave rolling.

JPMorgan Chase Faces Regulatory issues
By editor
Originally published on Mon December 30, 2013 4:42 am
Morning Edition has been looking back at the year through numbers — and the number for today is $15 billion. That's the approximate amount JP Morgan Chase has agreed to pay out in various fines and settlements this year. The company is widely seen as a well-managed bank but it faces big regulatory problems and its legal bills are mounting.

Tricks of the trade
Interpreters and the reporting process
Submitted by Cybrarian on Thu, 11/15/2012 - 07:53
© iStockphoto.com/fuzzbones0
Speaking to your source directly is a tenet of reporting — except when it isn't. When you and your source speak different languages, interpreters intervene. Laura Shin writes on Poynter about finding and using interpreters: Quoting New York Times reporter Barry Bearak, Shin advises, "When you write, tell the reader what language was spoken and that a translator was used ... 'The reader deserves to know that the words have passed through the translation process.'"

Oh look! Another Bai Ling nipple slip! But here's what I want to know: When is Bai Ling NOT slipping a nipple? Seriously, I don't think I've ever seen her in a photo where her nipple isn't popping out. Then again, there wouldn't really be any point in posting pictures of Bai Ling if she wasn't in mid-nip-slip.
I guess this one is pretty apropos, though, since she is standing in front of nude pictures of herself. Wow, a Bai Ling nipple slip in front of Bai Ling nude photos. I think I just blew my own mind.
Or whatever.

As businesses across the economic spectrum seek to develop personalized pricing strategies, the insurance sector continues to lead the way with renewed impetus behind telematics-based insurance offerings.
As telematics-based insurance products grow in popularity, the trade association for the UK insurance industry – the Association of British Insurers (ABI) – has issued a good practice guide on the use and implementation of telematics technology in vehicle insurance products. The guide aims to ensure that insurers providing telematics-based policies treat customers fairly and protect their data. Although the guide is primarily aimed at insurers, it is also likely to be of interest to the various related parties involved in a telematics-based insurance offering such as brokers, distributors, telematics infrastructure/service providers and third party data processors.

Students Participate in America Reads Program
By Staci Bruder
FEB. 17, 2006--Six University of Wisconsin-River Falls students participated in an event based on the book "The Box Car Children" as part of the America
First-year students, Christina Abegglen, Stetsonville, Wis., Joseph Dart, Sturgeon Bay, Wis., Alicia Hurkman, Andonver, Minn., Caitlin Lynch, New Hope, Minn., and Angela Stark, Knapp, Wis. along with sophomore Natalie Hanken from Ellsworth, Wis. make up the Falcon Fellows group, which is a group of students selected for their high GPA and ACT scores.
The Falcon Fellows complete 300 hours of community service throughout the academic year and will receive a $1,000 educational voucher from the Midwest Campus Compact Citizen-Scholar Fellow Program to use toward their tuition.
The students are also involved with the Student Support Services Program at UW-RF, a program that is designed for first generation or low-income students. " I am extremely impressed with the Falcon Fellow's commitment and passion toward the program," said Amy Lloyd of the UW-RF Academic Success Center. " They have taught me that first-year students have the capacity to both, serve as change agents in their college community and at the same time do well academically."
The majority of the groups service hours have been spent tutoring students in the River Falls school district through the America Reads Program. In addition, the group has also partnered with the River Falls Public Library for the spring semester.
The first event, "The Box Car Children," drew approximately 30 children from the surrounding River Falls elementary schools. The Falcon Fellows planned various activities including a book discussion, a "Free-For-All" relay race, bingo, art projects and making food donations to the local food pantry.

Moscow Institute of Thermal Technology
Moscow Institute of Thermal Technology (Russian: Федеральное Государственное Унитарное предприятие "Московский институт теплотехники", ФГУП МИТ - Federal State Unitary Enterprise "Moscow Institute of Thermal Technology") (The name can also be translated as: "Moscow Institute of Thermal Equipment") a Russian (and former Soviet) scientific research institute that was founded on May 13, 1946. The institute is located in the Otradnoye District in the north of Moscow.
Previously, it was primarily focused on developing ballistic missiles and rockets to increase the nation's strategic deterrent capability. Today it is also involved in civilian projects and has modified some of its intercontinental ballistic missiles into launch vehicles to be used for satellites.
In July 2009 the institute's General Director and Chief designer Yuri Solomonov resigned after the July 15, 2009 test launch failure of Bulava naval-based ICBM designed by MITT.[1] Solomonov resigned as General Director on 21 July 2009, 6 days after the test.

The book, written in Latin, is a frame narrative primarily depicting a fictional island society and its religious, social and political customs. The name of the place is derived from the Greek words οὐ u ("not") and τόπος tópos ("place"), with the topographical suffix -εία eía, hence Οὐτοπεία outopeía (Latinized as Utopia), "no-place land." It also contains a pun, however, because "Utopia" could also be the Latinization of Εὐτοπεία eutopeía, "good-place land," which uses the Greek prefix ευ eu, "good," instead of οὐ. One interpretation holds that this suggests that while Utopia might be some sort of perfected society, it is ultimately unreachable. Despite modern connotations of the word "utopia," it is widely accepted that the society More describes in this work was not actually his own "perfect society." Rather he wished to use the contrast between the imaginary land's unusual political ideas and the chaotic politics of his own day as a platform from which to discuss social issues in Europe.
What probably first suggested the idea for Utopia to Thomas More was his work with Erasmus, when they jointly translated some of Lucian's works from Greek into Latin. Among these dialogues, one involved the story of Menippus, the Greek playwright, descending into the underworld and describing what he found there. The other significant influence was Plato's Republic, which is a far more politically motivated work about imaginary lands; it is referred to several times in Utopia.
The work begins with some letters between Saint Thomas More and a couple of real people he met on the continent: Peter Giles, Town clerk of Antwerp, and Jerome Busleiden, counselor to Charles V. These letters help continue the fiction that they actually met a man named Raphael and they also include a specimen of the Utopian alphabet and its poetry. The letters also explain why nobody else had visited Utopia; someone had coughed and the exact longitude and latitude had not been heard, but Raphael was being sought to disclose the information. The first book tells of the traveler Raphael Hythloday, to whom More is introduced in Antwerp and also explores the subject of how best to counsel a prince, a popular topic at the time.
The first discussions with Raphael allow him to discuss some of the modern ills affecting Europe such as the tendency of kings to start wars and the subsequent bleeding away of money on fruitless endeavours. He also criticises the use of execution to punish theft saying that thieves might as well murder who they rob, to remove witnesses, if the punishment is going to be the same. He lays most of the problems of theft at the cause of enclosure—the enclosing of common land—and the subsequent poverty and starvation of people who are denied access to land because of sheep farming.
More tries to convince Raphael that he could find a good job in a royal court, advising monarchs, but Raphael says that his views are too radical and would not be listened to. Raphael sees himself in the tradition of Plato: he knows that for good governance, kings must act philosophically. However, he points out that
Plato doubtless did well foresee, unless kings themselves would apply their minds to the study of philosophy, that else they would never thoroughly allow the council of philosophers, being themselves before, even from their tender age, infected and corrupt with perverse and evil opinions.
More seems to contemplate the duty of philosophers to work around and in real situations and, for the sake of political expediency, work within flawed systems to make them better, rather than hoping to start again from first principles.
... for in courts they will not bear with a man's holding his peace or conniving at what others do: a man must barefacedly approve of the worst counsels and consent to the blackest designs, so that he would pass for a spy, or, possibly, for a traitor, that did but coldly approve of such wicked practices
According to More, the island of Utopia is
…two hundred miles across in the middle part, where it is widest, and nowhere much narrower than this except towards the two ends, where it gradually tapers. These ends, curved round as if completing a circle five hundred miles in circumference, make the island crescent-shaped, like a new moon.This is actually a geometrical impossibility (at least on Earth), as in order to have a circumference of 500 miles, the island would have to have a diameter of 500/π ≈ 159.15 miles, making it impossible for the island to be 200 miles wide at any point.
The island was originally a peninsula but a 15-mile wide channel was dug by the community's founder King Utopos to separate it from the mainland. The island contains 54 towns, each with about 6000 households. The capital city, Amaurot, is located directly in the middle of the crescent island. Thirty households are grouped together and controlled by a Syphograntus ("Styward"), and 10 Stywards are overseen by a Traniborus ("Bencheater"). Each town has a mayor elected from among the ranks of the Bencheaters. Every household has between 10 and 16 adults and people are re-distributed around the households and towns to keep numbers even. If the island suffers from overpopulation colonies are set up on the mainland. Alternatively, the natives of the mainland are invited to be part of these Utopian colonies, but if they dislike it and no longer wish to stay they may return. In the case of under population the colonists are re-called.
There is no private ownership on Utopia, with goods being stored in warehouses and people requesting what they need. There are also no locks on the doors of the houses, which are rotated between the citizens every ten years. Agriculture is the most important job on the island. Every person is taught it and must live in the countryside, farming, for two years at a time, with women doing the same work as men. Parallel to this, every citizen must learn at least one of the other essential trades: weaving (mainly done by the women), carpentry, metalsmithing and masonry. There is deliberate simplicity about these trades; for instance, all people wear the same types of simple clothes and there are no dressmakers making fine apparel. All able-bodied citizens must work; thus unemployment is eradicated, and the length of the working day can be minimised: the people only have to work six hours a day (although many willingly work for longer). More does allow scholars in his society to become the ruling officials or priests, people picked during their primary education for their ability to learn. All other citizens are however encouraged to apply themselves to learning in their leisure time.
Slavery is a feature of Utopian life and it is reported that every household has two slaves. The slaves are either from other countries or are the Utopian criminals. These criminals are weighed down with chains made out of gold. The gold is part of the community wealth of the country, and fettering criminals with it or using it for shameful things like chamber pots gives the citizens a healthy dislike of it. It also makes it difficult to steal as it is in plain view. The wealth though is of little importance and is only good for buying commodities from foreign nations or bribing these nations to fight each other. Slaves are periodically released for good behaviour.
Other significant innovations of Utopia include: a welfare state with free hospitals, euthanasia encouraged by the state, priests being allowed to marry, divorce permitted, premarital sex punished by a lifetime of enforced celibacy and adultery being punished by enslavement. Meals are taken in community dining halls and the job of feeding the population is given to a different household in turn. Although all are fed the same, Raphael explains that the old and the administrators are given the best of the food. Travel on the island is only permitted with an internal passport and anyone found without a passport they are, on a first occasion, returned in disgrace, but after a second offence they are placed into slavery. In addition, there are no lawyers and the law is made deliberately simple, as all should understand it and not leave people in any doubt of what is right and wrong.
There are several religions on the island: moon-worshipers, sun-worshipers, planet-worshipers, ancestor-worshipers and monotheists, but each is tolerant of the others. Only atheists are despised in Utopia, as they are seen as representing a danger to the state: since they do not believe in any punishment or reward after this life, they have no reason to share the communistic life of Utopia, and will break the laws for their own gain. They are not banished but encouraged to talk out their erroneous beliefs with the priests until they are convinced of their wrong. Raphael says that through his teachings Christianity was beginning to take hold in Utopia. The toleration of all other religious ideas is enshrined in a universal prayer all the Utopians recite.
...but, if they are mistaken, and if there is either a better government, or a religion more acceptable to God, they implore His goodness to let them know it.
Perhaps, by modern standards, women are not given a high degree of equality in the society. Wives are subject to their husbands and are restricted to conducting household tasks. Only few widowed women become priests. While all are trained in military arts, women are still subordinate to men, with women confessing their sins to their husbands once a month. Gambling, hunting, makeup and astrology are all discouraged in Utopia. The role allocated to women in Utopia might, however, have been seen as being more liberal from a contemporary point of view.
Also the communistic life style of a Utopian is a strange one coming from a rich landowner, though maybe influenced by the Spanish colonization of the Americas, which was bringing to European ears tales of ideal civilizations at about this time, such as the communistic Inca Empire.
Utopia is often seen as a satire and there are many jokes and satirical asides such as how honest people are in Europe, but these are usually contrasted with the simple, uncomplicated society of the Utopians. Some of the religious concepts, such as women as priests, were proposed by Protestants such as William Tyndale and More may be including the ideas in order to ridicule them.
The other option is that More agreed with the ideas he was propounding. The method of making a story about an imaginary place told by an imaginary man has the effect of distancing More from his radical political thoughts. Apart from Utopia meaning "Noplace" several other lands are mentioned: Achora meaning "Nolandia", Polyleritae meaning "Muchnonsense", Macarenses meaning "Happiland" and the river Anydrus meaning "Nowater". These names are designed to emphasise the illusory nature of the work and Raphael's last name, Hythlodaeus meaning "dispenser of nonsense" helps to discredit his words among those who get the joke.
The name Raphael, though, may have been chosen by More to remind his readers of the archangel Raphael who is mentioned in the Book of Tobit. In that book the angel guides Tobias and later cures his father of his blindness. While Hythloday may suggest his words are not to be trusted, Raphael meaning "God has healed" suggests that Raphael may be opening the eyes of the reader to what is true. The suggestion that More may have agreed with the views of Raphael is given weight by the way he dressed; with "his cloak was hanging carelessly about him"; a style which Roger Ascham reports that More himself was wont to adopt. Furthermore, more recent criticism has questioned the reliability of both Gile's annotations and the character of "More" in the text itself. Claims that the book only subverts Utopia and Hythloday are possibly oversimplistic.
The communist views may seem out of place over three hundred years before Karl Marx re-proposed them but there were similar communistic views expressed in the Bible. One must be careful when referring to communism in Utopia, however - the differing historical contexts mean that Marx and More would think of property in differing ways. Furthermore, the people of the island work communally as means to a hedonistic end, rather than the kind of socialist will Marx postulated.
This refers to the early Church in Jerusalem, rather than to society as a whole, and did not involve compulsion, as in Utopia, but it may have been influential in More's political views. Whatever Thomas More's purpose or actual opinion of his Utopian work the final sentence of Utopia seems to make it clear that it was probably not meant to be considered as wholly satirical.
I cannot perfectly agree to everything he has related. However, there are many things in the commonwealth of Utopia that I rather wish, than hope, to see followed in our governments.
More was not aware that the work would be published, nor did he himself publish it. His good friend Erasmus had it published for him after reading it.
The work seems to have been popular, if misunderstood, with the introduction of More's Epigrams of 1518 mentioning a certain fathead who did not regard More as a good writer as he was just repeating someone else.
The word Utopia overtook More's short work and has been used ever since to describe this kind of imaginary society with many unusual ideas being contemplated. Although he may not have founded the genre of Utopian and dystopian fiction More certainly popularised it and some of the early works which owe something to Utopia include The City of the Sun by Tommaso Campanella, Description of the Republic of Christianopolis by Johannes Valentinus Andreae, New Atlantis by Francis Bacon and Candide by Voltaire.
The politics of Utopia have been seen as influential to the ideas of Anabaptism, Mormonism and Communism. While utopian socialism was used to describe the first concepts of socialism later Marxist theorists tended to see the ideas as too simplistic and not grounded on the realistic principles. The religious message in the work and its uncertain, possibly satiric, tone has also alienated some theorists from the work.
An applied example of More's utopia can be seen in Vasco de Quiroga's implemented society in Michoacán, Mexico, which was directly taken and adapted from More's work.
Thomas More's 'Utopia' is referenced several times in the film "Ever After: A Cinderella Story" starring Drew Barrymore.
Utopia is the last book given to Danielle (Barrymore) by her father before he dies, and she quotes it during an argument with Prince Henry (Dougray Scott):
"If you suffer your people to be ill-educated and their manners corrupted from infancy, and then punish them for those crimes to which their first education disposed them, what else is to be concluded, sire, but that you first make thieves and then punish them?""
The song So Says I, recorded by The Shins, contains the lyrics "Cause this is nothing like we ever dreamt, tell Sir Thomas More we've got another failed attempt. Cause if it makes them money, they might just give you life this time."

Discover how to manage data entry and reporting tasks more efficiently using Access 2010. Author Adam Wilbert presents lessons on designing forms, organizing and displaying data with form controls, creating flexible queries, and building a form-based navigation system. The course also shows how to build reports from wizards and queries, highlight important data with conditional formatting, and automate reporting processes with macros.
In the last movie, we looked at how we can add references to our data tables with the field list and how the arrange tab in the Form design will help you organize elements on the page. Now let's turn our attention to the Format tab. The Format tab has many of common formatting options that you might recognize from other programs, such as Word or Excel. Right now, I have got the Employee Directory form open that we're working with earlier. I am going to change its View to Design View by going to the View menu and Design. On the ribbon up here, I am going to change the Format tab. We will take a look at this. One the left side, I have got a Selection section, in the drop-down menu where I can select different object on my form.
Now I can select from any object here, if I select Address for an example, here I will choose Address Box. If I want to choose one of the labels, I can choose say Label2 here, I am not sure exactly which one label 2 is though, apparently it's the phone number one. So I could choose objects here from this menu. I could also say Select All and it will select everything. I will go ahead and click down anywhere in the space down here to deselect. The next section changes Fonts. So I am going to go ahead and click on first name here where I could change the fonts here if I wanted to, I could change the size which I will.
I am going to go ahead and change this to a 14 point. I can change whether it's Bold, Italicized or Underlined and I am going to choose Bold. I can change the Font color, right now its looks kind of a dark gray and it is, you can see it here. Let's go ahead and change it to black. I could also change the font background. And now this is going to change the background color of the entire bounding box. So for instance, if I choose this red color here, Red Accent 2, I will see it fills up the entire space underneath the orange. I will go ahead and change that back to Automatic. I can choose whether, I want to take my text Left aligned, Centered or Right aligned and this tool up here is a paint brush, it's call the Format Painter and we will take a look at that in just a moment.
The next section is called Number and it applies to numerical data. So for instance my HireDate, it is a date field, it is a number, if I select that, it will give some options here to deal with those numbers. For dates, I can either choose to display them in their standard format or I can display it in a different format. For instance, I am going to choose Medium Date and we will see the result of that change in a little bit. The next section here Background, you can apply Background Image. Now it doesn't matter what object you have selected if you choose this Background Image, it's going to apply the Background Image to the entire form, back here. So it doesn't matter if I have HireDate selected or nothing selected, choosing this Background Image option would apply a Background Image to the entire form regardless.
And over here I have got Control Formatting which would change to a Quick Style or Shape for things like buttons or other shapes. I have got Conditional Formatting which we will look at later in this course and I could change Shape Fill, Shape Outline, or Shape Effects, for things like Rectangles, and Lines and Buttons. Okay so let's go through and change a couple of the objects here. First of all I am going to change the boxes, it appear around all of my text objects. I can go to the Select All menu to just grab everything it wants and I will go to Shape Outline and change it to Transparent. So we won't see those boxes around all of our data fields.
Next I want to apply the same formatting to Last Name that I have now on FirstName. I can select the FirstName box, click the Format Painter and click on LastName. Notice that when I click on LastName, it deselects the Format Painter up here. If I want to change all these to the same size, I could do that in different way. I might choose the phone number one for example, change it's Font size, maybe down to 10. I could double-click on the Format Painter to lock it on and now I can paint multiple objects at once. So I click on Email, Address, City, HireDate, State, Zip, and Department and I click on Format Painter to turn that off.
The other thing I can do is Shift+Click to select multiple objects. So let's say I want to choose these labels here. I will click on Phone number, I can Shift+Click, on the other labels here on my form and I can change their formatting all at the same time. Let's say I wanted to make them a green color. I will click on the Font Text here, and I will make them this dark green, Olive Green, Accent 3, Darker. So let's go and see the results of our changes, I will go to my Design Tab and click on the Form View button here and I will click on here, so that's de-highlighting the name here. So I do see one little error that I want to change here, I can see that the word guy here, the y is being chopped off the bottom, I need to adjust the size of my textbox a little bit.
Let's go back into Design View and fix that real quick. Click the View menu>Design View. I will click FirstName and LastName at the same time and I am going to press the Shift+Up button and that can make it shorter. If I press Shift+Down that will make it taller. If I press Shift+Right that will make them wider, if I press Shift+Left that will make it narrower. So I am going to press Shift+Down a couple of times to make the boxes taller and then I am going to let go the Shift key and I will press the Up arrow to move the objects up. That's probably going to work out better, we will click on the Form View button here and that's looking better for the names.
Okay let's go ahead and save our changes, press the Save icon here and our form is set for the next movie. Now the Design tab puts many common controls right up front in the ribbon, changing fonts and colors and line styles here could be really quick especially if you make good use of the Format Painter tool. But for some serious control over every aspect of our forms we are going to need to dig a little bit deeper and explore the Property Sheet.

Armed militants killed five security personnel in Pakistan's southwestern province, Balochistan, said officials.
Gunmen attacked a check post of the Frontier Corps paramilitary force in resource-rich Dukki area of Balochistan. The gunmen were armed with automatic weapons, said a security official.
The official said that an FC soldier sustained serious bullet wounds during the incident. The attackers immediately escaped from the spot in their vehicles, he added.
The injured soldier was hospitalized within minutes, reports the Dawn.
As investigation was in progress, the large contingent of Frontier Corps and local administration reached the spot.
However, there was no claim of responsibility immediately.
The area is rich in coal and mineral resources where the paramilitary FC force was deployed.

A controversy erupted at the fast venue when Baba Ramdev objected to Team Anna member Arvind Kejriwal naming and accusing some senior politicians, including the Prime Minister, of corruption.
Mr. Kejriwal reiterated his demand for a Special Investigation Team, independent of the Prime Minister, unlike the CBI, which will investigate all charges of corruption against the 15 Union Cabinet Ministers and politicians, including Mulayam Singh, Mayawati, Parkash Singh Badal and Jayalalithaa. He said the SIT could probe Team Anna members and Baba Ramdev.
The yoga guru then objected to the naming of politicians stating that he was not opposed to individuals and that this would divert attention from the black money issue and the Lok Pal Bill. Mr. Kejriwal soon left the fast venue, triggering speculation that he left because of the "snub."
However, both Baba Ramdev, at the fast venue itself, and Mr. Kejriwal, on Twitter, rubbished these suggestions stating that he left because he was unwell and had told Anna Hazare and Baba Ramdev before doing so.
Mr. Kejriwal tweeted: "I had to leave fast venue bcoz I am v unwell. I told this to Anna and swamiji. It is wrong to say that I left in protest. I have greatest respect for swamiji (sic)." Defending his action, he again tweeted: "This is a political battle and we will have to name and shame and demand severe action against corrupt people. I will personally speak to Swami Ramdev ji. I am sure I will be able to persuade him that naming is important."
Keywords: Hazare-Ramdev fast, Kejriwal remarks, Team Anna, Jantar Mantar

Eurobike 2012: Hottest new products from Campagnolo, Bont, Mavic, 3T, Enve, Specialized, Exposure and loads more
Some of the newest clothing, parts and accessories from the show
Previous News
Next News
Judging from our coverage of Eurobike you might be mistaken into thinking there were only new bikes on display, but there was just as much new product from clothing to accessories to look out.
Here's my roundup of things that caught my eye, from lightweight jackets to dynamo-powered LED lights and much more.
British brand Exposure Lights showed their exciting new Revo, a dynamo-powered LED light, which is going into production as you read these words. Dynamo-powered lights have been around for ever and Exposure's Revo brings it bang up to date with the very latest technology.
What that means is a light that produces a staggering 800 lumens - more than enough for riding dark country lanes in the winter. You might be thinking that's all well and good, but what happens when you stop pedalling? Their clever Stand Light Technology ensures that 200 lumens are still produced.
The Revo will cost £200 and they're offering a package that includes an Exposure branded PD-8 hub made by Shutter Precision. There'll be 28 and 32 spoke options with a 36 on the way, and there's a disc brake version too – they're aiming it at mountain bikers as well as road cyclists, though with the increase of disc brakes on cyclo-cross bikes and touring/commuting bikes, it's an interesting option.
The Revo light is a tiny unit with four Cree XPG R5 LEDs packed into the CNC-machined unit. Smart Port Technology means you can charge a phone or GPS device from it, or power a rear light. It weighs just 87g.
Exposure continue to hone their range of battery powered lights with the addition of the new Sirius light, which is essentially a more affordable Joystick. It provides 360 lumens of illumination with a two hour battery life on the highest setting (six on low) and costs £114.95.
The road-specific Strada is now in its 4th generation and output has been increased to 800 lumens (from 645) yet it still costs the same. And they've managed to squeeze a bigger capacity battery in there too so battery life is extended, with 3 hours on high and anything up to 36 on the number of lower settings.
New to the light is Optimised Mode Selector (OMS) technology. On paper it's a little tricky to get your head around, but after a little playing with the light and flicking through the modes, it soon makes perfect sense. It's very easy to use; you press and hold the button until the desired number of LED lights on the rear of the unit are illuminated, corresponding with the modes handily printed on the underside of the light. It gives you a greater choice of lighting modes that better suit different riding situations or tastes.
With the autumn rapidly approaching it will soon be time to turn our attention to clothing to protect us from the elements. Showing on Sportful's stand was the brand new Hot Pack Ultralight, an water repellent jacket that weighs 50g. Yes, that isn't a typo, this is one seriously light jacket.
It's designed to be so compact, folding into its own little pocket, that you won't have any excuse for getting caught in the wind or rain without a jacket. It could be ideal for the unpredictable weather we get at this time of year. To achieve such seemingly impossible levels of lightness, Sportful use a fabric with yarns as fine as seven denier – one square metre weighs just 30g. And because it's so thin, it can be weaved very tightly which makes it windproof. It's coated with a DWR (durable water repellent) finish to keep rain out. There's strategically placed vents to minimise overheating. It's not going to be cheap though - it'll be £130 when it is released early next year.
KCNC, makers of super light components available in a wide range of colours, showed this exotic looking brake callipers.
Looking to carry more than just a water bottle on your next ride? This bottle cage can expand to accommodate any size bottle. Including this bottle of beer.
You see everything at Eurobike, but I don't recall ever seeing a snow bike quite this mad before. If we have a heavy snowfall this winter, I'll be on the phone to the manufacturer requesting a test bike!
Deda expand their range of 35mm handlebars with the new Superleggera range. Deda are the first company to adopt wider 35mm diameter bars from the world of motocross, and have been championing their advantages for a couple of years. Advantages you say? Stiffer and lighter, as the handlebar diameter is greater the wall thickness can be decreased without compromising stiffness. The carbon handlebar pictured here weighs a claimed 180g (42cm width).
I'm a fan of Specialized's S-Works Road shoe, I just get on really well with the shape, fit and BG (Body Geometry features) gubbins. The company's top-end race shoe has been updated for 2013, with changes concentrating on making it lighter, with a new upper material, and stiffer, with a new FACT carbon sole.
The shoe has been two years in development and Specialized started with a clean sheet of paper, and took things right back to basics. They showed some early prototypes on their stand including a crazy 100g sample, just one of nearly 40 prototypes that led to the final production model.
Making the most of their partnership with McLaren allowed Specialized to develop this super aerodynamic time trial helmet.
Easton's new EC70 SL3 carbon handlebar makes one of the most trusted names in carbon fibre more affordable - although we don't have an exact price just yet. A 42cm bar weighs just 230g.
One of the most striking new products was Giro's Empire shoe Taylor Phinney was given a pair of custom shoes during the Giro d'Italia earlier this year, and now you can buy a pair - we'll have loads more on these in our upcoming shoe round-up.
We're told that just the black and silver colours will be available, which is a shame as the selection of colours they showed was really eye-catching.
POC were showing the new Tempor helmet. POC designed the helmet by viewing the riders as one body mass, instead of just concentrating on the head, which is the reason for the helmets sculpted rear section – it's designed to fit perfectly with your time trial position on the bike.
Bont shoes get a glowing endorsement as the shoe that won the Tour de France and Olympic time trial.
Cyclo-cross season is nearly upon us and Ritchey have just released their new WCS Shield Cross tyre. It's designed for dryish conditions with a fast rolling low-profile tread pattern. A tightly packed and aggressive row of shoulder lugs should give it a good ability to tackle corners at pace. Available in 35mm width it weighs 374g.
Brit firm Hope Technology will add jockey wheels to their 2013 line-up, available in a choice of colours that should complement any drivetrain.
Enve are quick to answer the needs of manufacturers looking to get in on the road bikes with disc market that is slowly increasing in popularity and demand. It follows in the footsteps of the Cross fork with one-piece net-moulded carbon construction, using continuous fibres from the dropouts through the crown into the 1.5in tapered steerer. Weight is a claimed 435g with a 350mm steerer. A carbon fibre clamp band keeps the hydraulic hose neatly in place.
Want a suitably retro road bike that harks back to the black and white days? Your prayers have been answered...
Shimano's PRO brand launched a new saddle concept that aims to make the whole process of choosing the right one easy. It's not an entirely new process, with strong similarities to Specialized's fit bone measuring saddle program.
Here Tech Ed Mat gets his sit bones measured... We think he was just looking for an excuse to sit down after traipsing around the huge halls of Eurobike.
Once you've got your sit bone measurement, you can narrow down your choice and the PRO website makes it straightforward to work through the available options and choose the saddle that, hopefully, is perfect for you.
And here's the range of saddles to choose from. There are three basic shapes: the Falcon, Turnix and Griffon.
We had a lot of interest in Mavic's podium shoes when we showed them last year. If you've been crying out for a pair, here you go...
They'll be available to buy in the 2013 range (see comments below).
K-Edge make smart CNC-machined GoPro mounts and they now also make this neat Garmin Edge mount. If you're running out of space on your handlebars, or don't want to fit it on the stem, then this is a good solution. It places the Garmin in a very central position forward of the stem, which could make it easier to view when in the drops.
Speaking of mounts for your Garmin, here's 3T's carbon Integra stem which comes with one incorporated in the design, as used by Team Garmin-Sharp-Barracuda.
The 110mm version (10°) should be available in the UK from October at £259.99 with other lengths hitting the shelves from January. 3T give a weight of 178g for that 110mm version. If you don't want to use your Garmin, you can fit a shroud over the mount.
We've covered the Campagnolo bar-end EPS controls before but this is the first time we've seen them in the flesh (since we caught sight of them when we visited Campag a year ago and they banned us from mentioning them).
As with the drop bar shifters, you can perform multiple shifts by pressing and holding the shifter. When you stop pressing, the lever returns to the midpoint so it sits in the same position whatever gear you're using.
FSA have given their entry-level Energy groupset a fresh lick of paint, with the smart new decals really lifting the cranks, stem, bars and wheels up a peg.
This is the new Air Profil FC02 pump from Zéfal. We're seeing a few more small pumps that feature a hose these days to make like a little bit easier. The Zéfal's hose doesn't screw to the end of the extendable aluminium barrel, it lives in there and you just pull it out when you need to use it.
At the other end of the hose you get a chuck that does screw into place; one way around it fits Presta valves, the other way around it fits Schrader. The handle stays in place while you're riding thanks to a magnetic closure.
Zéfal say it weighs 111g and will provide 116psi of pressure, but we don't have a price on this one yet.
The idea of this Travel pump is that it's less bulky than a track pump so it's easy to take with you to events or store at home. Zéfal claim it'll deliver up to 180psi although, again, a retail price has yet to be set.
Someone needs to talk to Exposure about their lights being used on the road. It would be nice to hear from them what their stand is on the legality issue and if they actually think their light are appropriate for road use (road.cc im looking at you).
I own 3 of their lights (MaxxD, Diablo and Joystick) and have switched to a dynamo Schmidt light for 95% of my road riding. The Exposures just dont cast enough light onto the ground without running them on the high setting, which is blinding to other road users (i commute the opposite dierection to another MaxxD user, it IS blinding!).

+1 on lights (another ex-Exposure user moved to a German beam) - every light manufacturer outside of Germany and Holland is still fixated on quoting lumens and throwing them everywhere. Fine for the forest, but for the road, lux on the tarmac is what matters.

Can't comment about the Exposure's directly as I don't use them - Mat likes his Strada - a lot, but then that's a road light with a suitably focused beam.
I don't thing bright lights in themselves are a problem so long as the beam pattern is right for the road - if you're using a very bright MTB light with a flood beam you are going to dazzle oncoming drivers… but then as the Highway Code advises in those situations the driver should slow down anyway which has the benefit of keeping everybody safe plus allowing ample time for the motorist to cuss you out for dazzling him/her as they pass by.

We have a reply from Michel at Mavic. He says:
"Three years ago we all wore a pair during the Eurobike show to showcase the yellow signature as the pro cyclists equipped with Zxellium. Then the athletes were the only ones to have the authorization to use them to climb on the box
without cleats (podium shoes) at races.
"For 2013, they will be available to everyone at £115. They have been adapted for walking, ultimate race winning look and showing the passion for the sport."

Place a mini donut atop a cupcake to transform it into a dome shape. With a decoration of orange-tinted frosting and gum drop stems you'll have a bumper crop of mini pumpkins.
1 package (2-layer size) white cake mix
1 teaspoon McCormick® Pure Vanilla Extract
McCormick® Assorted Food Colors & Egg Dye
1 container (16 ounces) vanilla frosting
24 mini donuts
24 green gum drops
Prepare cake mix as directed on package, adding vanilla. Tint cake batter orange with 1/2 teaspoon yellow food color and 1/4 teaspoon red food color.
Bake as directed on package for cupcakes. Cool cupcakes on wire rack.
Tint frosting orange using 1/4 teaspoon yellow food color and 1/8 teaspoon red food color. Attach a mini donut to cupcake with some frosting. Frost entire donut and top of cupcake. Press ridges into the frosting with a small knife to resemble a pumpkin. Use a gum drop for the stem.
Easy Jack-O-Lantern Cupcakes: Omit mini donuts. Frost cupcakes with orange-tinted frosting. Use candy-coated pieces to decorate the face and green gum drops for the stems.
Test Kitchen Tip: For easier measurement, 1/4 tsp. Food Color = 20 to 25 drops
(Amount per serving)
This is a really cute idea for fall treats. Love the idea of mini donuts to make the dome shape. I can't think of the cookies name that's made out of marshmallow and cookie base, but I think that would be really good to use too, instead of the donut. And orange jello could be added to the cake mix. Love playing with cake flavors and vanilla and orange would be like a creamsickle cake. What fun for Fall Harvest celebration!

The district magistrate has ordered early disposal of all pending cases pertaining to breach of model code of conduct during 2009 general elections and 2012 state assembly polls in district court here following the direction of Uttar Pradesh Election Commission.
The District Magistrate, who is also the district election officer of Muzaffarnagar, has directed prosecution to take steps for speedy disposal of all such cases that are pending in the district court, official sources said.
The direction from state EC has come in the wake of upcoming Lok Sabha elections, they said.
Meanwhile, Chief Judicial Magistrate Narender Kumar has also ordered all magistrates to expedite the disposal of such cases in their courts.
The direction was issued after senior prosecution officer AK Vishnoi approached the court and requested for the same.
According to Vishnoi, more than 33 cases of violation of model code of conduct are pending in the district court against at least 65 leaders including UP minister Chitranjan Swaroop, BSP MP Kadir Rana, Former UP Congress president Rita Bahuguna and Congress MP Mohammad Azharuddin among others.
Police has filed final report in some cases but court has not yet accepted police report against the accused, he said.
These cases were registered on the direction of EC during general elections in 2009 and UP assembly polls in 2012 in the district.
