Wisdom has dawned at long last on the public health establishment of the country. Twenty-five months after stopping production on the orders of the Union Ministry of Health and Family Welfare, three prestigious vaccine manufacturing public sector undertakings (PSUs), the Central Research Institute (CRI) at Kasauli in Himachal Pradesh, the Pasteur Institute of India (PII) at Coonoor, and the BCG Vaccine Laboratory in Chennai are readying to resume vaccine production. Significantly, these three account for a very substantial share of vaccine supplies needed to implement the Universal Immunisation Programme (UIP), one of the most successful government-run public health programmes in the country. CRI and PII are over 100 years old.
The resumption was made possible by the Ministry's revocation of its January 2008 orders "suspending" the manufacturing licenses of these units "till such time all the deficiencies are rectified." The drastic step was taken on the ground that the plants had violated some licensing conditions, which related to staff strength, size of premises, and quality control as specified under the World Health Organisation's good manufacturing practices (GMP). The suspension was ordered under Rule 85 (1) of the Drugs and Cosmetics Rule, 1945, after the undertakings were found to be not GMP-compliant.
The order revoking suspension, which was issued on February 12, declared that it took immediate effect. While considering the need to revoke the suspension, it said, the Ministry took into account the impact of the production stoppage on the UIP. This was in terms of the availability and the prices of these vaccines after the stoppage of production and also the public interest in maintaining the captive production capacity of these units. (Ever since the immunisation programme was launched decades ago, the share of the three PSUs in the supply of vaccines has been more than 70 per cent; private domestic manufacturers and foreign suppliers account for the rest.)
Adverse consequences
The revocation order itself is testimony to the government's failure to keep the immunisation programme going. The adverse consequences should have been anticipated: a sharp fall in the supply of vaccines and an abnormal rise in the prices paid to private domestic and foreign manufacturers. For instance, the government, which used to pay PSU Rs. 12 for one vial of 10 doses of vaccine, has now to pay a private manufacturer between Rs. 50 and Rs. 60 for the same quantity of vaccine.
When the three PSUs manufacturing vaccine units were ordered to stop productions, scientists, public health activists, and leaders of the Left parties warned that this reckless action would cause an acute shortage of vital vaccines and throw the immunisation programme out of gear. The Parliamentary Standing Committee on Health and Family Welfare, headed by Amar Singh, was critical of the Ministry for its move to suspend manufacturing in the three PSUs. The Committee in its 38th report highlighted the shocking fact that within two years of stoppage of production in these units, vaccine prices had more than doubled, having major implications for the government's expenditure on the immunisation programmes.
The critics cautioned the government against depending solely on the private sector for sustaining a programme, which is a continuous process requiring non-stop supply of vaccines. In less than five months, their fears came true. According to newspaper reports, at least 15 States and most Union Territories started complaining of shortage of stocks and sent an SOS for further supplies. The government could do nothing but look towards the private manufacturers, who were in no position to deliver. Several States and Union Territories, including Delhi, were agitated over the shortage of vaccines such as tetanus toxoid (TT) vaccines, which are generally administered to pregnant women. Other vaccines in short supply were the diphtheria-pertussis-tetanus (DPT) vaccine and Bacillus Calmette-Gherin (BCG), used in tuberculosis treatment.
There is another shocking feature of the mess. The three vaccine institutes had stocks of vaccines but their hands were tied. They were asked not only to stop production but also to stop despatch of supplies from the stocks they held.
The order suspending production activity in the three units made it clear that it would be in force "till such time as all the deficiencies are rectified." The government, which runs these units, failed to take any major step to make them GMP-compliant in the two years after production was suspended. It is truly shocking that scientists and technicians involved in a vital field were kept idle for two full years.
All that happened was that three committees visited the units to study the situation. The first was the "Experts Committee" headed by Drug Controller General of India. It studied how best the units could be developed into testing centres. The "Oversight Committee" that followed dealt with issues relating to infrastructure development. Fortunately, a former Union Health Secretary, Javid Chowdhury, who has had long experience in the field of public health, headed the third committee. Applying eminent common sense, it clinched the issue by recommending the revocation of the suspension orders served on the three PSUs in the public interest and on the strength of the compliance status furnished by the institutes. That the three PSUs with commendable records have been put back on their feet is a matter for celebration.
It is, however, unfortunate that media coverage of the goings-on in a crucial sector of public health, which concerns millions of ordinary Indian citizens, has been sporadic, mostly superficial, and on the whole poor. Barring a few English dailies and magazines, the news media failed to cover the government's vaccine fiasco, and the issues at stake, seriously. On this issue, The Pioneer and The Times of India among English dailies and Frontline and Down to Earth among English magazines stood out through their sensitive coverage. Frontline had an authoritative and educative cover story on the vaccine worries.
Readers' Editor clarifies:
"Public health issues: need for more media concern" gave the expansion of BCG as Bacillus Calmette-Ghérin. It is Bacillus Calmette-Guérin (or Bacille Calmette-Guérin).

Does LeBron James need to win this NBA Finals for his legacy?Jay Busbee at Ball Don't Lie 1 hr ago
LeBron James, as you may have heard, is now playing in his sixth NBA Finals. LeBron James, as you may also have heard, has not won all of those series, like a fella by the name of Jordan once did. So here's the question: does LeBron need to win the 2015 Finals to protect and enhance his legacy?
It's not an inconsequential question. We live in a results-driven sports world; the careers of Patrick Ewing, Karl Malone, Charles Barkley and others don't shine quite as bright in our memories because they never grabbed that ring.
On the other hand, LeBron has now reached five straight NBA Finals, something Jordan, Bird, or Magic never did, and he's done so with two different teams and varying levels of talent around him. Shouldn't that count for something? Doesn't the sheer weight of his achievement since 2010 outweigh any lingering bad feelings about The Decision or any ridiculous questions about whether he's "better" than Jordan. We discuss, and we invite your commentary.

American Pharoah to start from fifth position at BelmontJay Busbee at The Turnstile 8 hrs ago
American Pharoah's quest for the Triple Crown began in earnest on Wednesday with the announcement of the post positions for the Belmont Stakes, the final jewel in horse racing's Triple Crown.
The horse will start from the fith position, per Wednesday's post draw.
American Pharoah is seeking to become the first horse since Affirmed in 1978 to win the Triple Crown. Since that time, 13 horses have failed to capture the Belmont after winning the Kentucky Derby and the Preakness, including two in the last three years.
If American Pharoah is to win, he'll have to overcome challenges from a number of horses he bested in the Derby but not in the Preakness. Frosted, Materiality, Mubtaahij, Keen Ice, Madefromlucky, Tale of Verve, and Frammento fill out the Belmont field, with Frosted and Materiality holding the best odds outside American Pharoah to win.
The Belmont Stakes runs at 6:50 ET on Saturday, June 6.

Defendant in Jameis Winston countersuit moves to dismissJay Busbee at Shutdown Corner 1 day ago
Jameis Winston's days at Florida State University are not completely behind him.
Erica Kinsman, a former FSU student who alleged in 2013 that Winston raped her, is suing Winston for false imprisonment, assault, sexual battery, and intentional infliction of emotional distress. Recently, Winston filed a countersuit, alleging defamation and interference with business relationships arising out of Kinsman's initial lawsuit.
Now, Kinsman's attorneys have moved to dismiss Winston's defamation lawsuit and strike that lawsuit's opening statement.
In other words, Kinsman says Winston can't sue her for naming him as her rapist because 1. time has run out on the opportunity to do so and 2. she named him in protected settings (i.e. to law enforcement and university officials).

Rob Gronkowski to drive pace car at Chicago NASCAR raceJay Busbee at Shutdown Corner 2 days ago
Rob Gronkowski is going to drive the pace car at a NASCAR race later this month. What could possibly go wrong?
Our closet living equivalent to DuffManwill serve as Grand Marshal for the Chicago Xfinity Series race scheduled for Saturday, June 20. (For those not in the know, the Xfinity Series is a developmental race series just below the top level, NASCAR's equivalent of Triple-A baseball ... or, in NFL terms, the NFC South.) Gronk and his brothers Gordie Jr., Chris, Dan and Glenn -- why why WHY is there not a reality show with these dudes -- will all be co-marshals, and Gronk's pops will be honorary starter.
The city of Joliet, Illinois, where the Chicago Speedway is located, may wish to begin emergency preparedness training right now. The Summer of Gronk rolls on.

Giants punter Steve Weatherford survives rugged Jersey Turnpike wreckJay Busbee at Shutdown Corner 2 days ago
Giants punter Steve Weatherford welcomed his daughter into the world over the weekend in San Diego, then flew across the country to join the team at OTAs. But early Monday morning, he suffered a major wreck on the New Jersey Turnpike that had him thanking heaven on social media.
Weatherford was flying in from San Diego, but poor weather forced him to land in Washington, D.C. He landed at 11 p.m. and rented a car to get to Monday morning's practice on time. At 3:30 a.m., he hit water on the turnpike, hydroplaned and hit the median as the airbags deployed.
"I walked out without a scratch," Weatherford wrote on Instagram. "I am feeling so incredibly blessed. Not only has God given my family and I a beautiful, healthy 10 pound baby girl. He sent his guardian angels to keep my car from flipping and possibly dying."
Eventually, Weatherford did reach the Giants' practice facility, as he noted on Twitter:
Johnny Manziel involved in incident with fan at golf tournamentJay Busbee at Shutdown Corner 3 days ago
Your browser does not support iframes.
Cleveland Browns quarterback Johnny Manziel was back in Texas for the AT&T Byron Nelson Classic on Saturday, and something happened. That's about all anyone can agree on.
First, let's go to Manziel's agent, per Cleveland.com. Erik Burkhardt said Manziel was harassed by a fellow fan in the gallery, but handled the disturbance without major problems.
Seems harmless enough, but here's another angle. A fan, Chase Fritz of Plano, Texas, told Yahoo Sports that he spotted Manziel yelling at someone and, later, throwing a water bottle at the fan. Manziel missed, and the other fan responded, "Hey, nice throw, Johnny." Manziel, according to Fritz, became "super pissed," "took off his hat," and began walking toward the other man.
At that point, security officials in the area rounded up everyone, including Fritz and his father. Someone in Manziel's entourage told Fritz not to take a picture, but he did so anyway. Here's Fritz's photo from another account:

Los Angeles NFL team update: St. Louis officials sue over stadium, San Diego negotiates with ChargersJay Busbee at Shutdown Corner 6 days ago
Conventional wisdom holds that three teams -- the San Diego Chargers, the Oakland Raiders, and the St. Louis Rams -- are in the mix to move to Los Angeles. How true, or likely, that scenario is depends on whom you ask, but what's indisputable is that the threat of moving to L.A. is spurring action in each city ... which, of course, is what the NFL has wanted all along.
Start in San Diego, where the possibility of losing the Chargers has, at long last, galvanized the city into action. The Chargers are meeting with city and San Diego County officials in the coming weeks to discuss a replacement for Qualcomm Stadium, which opened in 1967.
"I want nothing more than for the Rams to stay," said state Rep. Rob Vescovo (R), one of the suit's plaintiffs. "But I don't think the governor has the authority to bury us under the additional debt without proper vetting."

Williams team back as a fighting force after major changes
There is a definite sense of renewal and rebirth at Williams this year.
The team that dominated Formula 1 for much of the 1980s and 1990s had seemed to be in an inexorable decline, but they have re-emerged as a fighting force in 2012.
The pain of last season, when Williams finished ninth in the constructors' championship ahead only of the three teams that joined the sport in 2010, finally forced them into making major changes. They are already bearing fruit.
Until Lotus finally delivered on their potential with second and third places at the most recent race in Bahrain, Williams were the team who had made most progress over the winter.
Last year, Williams scored only five points all season; after four races this year they already have more than three times that - and sit seventh in the championship with 18 points.
And they could have had eight more had Pastor Maldonado not crashed on the last lap of the Australian Grand Prix.
Maldonado's impressive drive in Melbourne was followed by a superb performance by his team-mate Bruno Senna in the wet in Malaysia - from last on the re-start to sixth at the finish.
Williams in F1
- First entered the championship at the 1977 Spanish Grand Prix
- Clay Regazzoni recorded the first Williams win at the 1979 British Grand Prix
- The team's last win was Juan Pablo Montoya's victory in Brazil in 2004
- Australian Alan Jones was the first world champion for Williams in 1980
- The team has won seven drivers' titles and nine constructors' titles
- The last title came in 1997 from Jacques Villeneuve
- The team has entered 576 grands prix, winning 113
And the two men followed that with seventh and eighth in China, where they were right in the thick of the 12-car battle for second place in the second half of the race.
Little wonder, then, that chief operations engineer Mark Gillan says the team feels "very much [like] Williams, but with a smile, whereas the last few races last year were tough".
Gillan - a softly-spoken Northern Irishman who has also worked for Jaguar and Toyota - is one of the key new faces responsible for this turnaround in form.
The others are technical director Mike Coughlan and the new head of aerodynamics Jason Somerville with a concentration on good, solid engineering principles.
"Definitely where we were at was not a good place to be," Gillan says, adding that there was a lack of focus in Williams's approach to a race weekend.
New parts were being produced that were not of a high enough quality - and there were too many of them for the team to properly analyse their effect.
So now, Gillan says, Williams are producing "less parts to a higher quality".
"We've tidied up components - the general finish is much better," Gillan adds.
"We're not bringing things to the track for small gains, and generally the direction of the whole company has been a lot stronger.
"Last year we had a situation where we had numerous different types of, say, a floor at the track. There were almost too many things there.
"And at a race weekend it's always very difficult to do aerodynamic testing because you have such limited track time.
"So we've got rid of that and said we're going to deal with fewer components of a higher quality, and make sure what we bring to the track is as well prepared and understood as possible. We ensure that what goes on the car is working properly and correlates well with the [wind] tunnel and safety."
In addition to this, communication between the track and the factory - of which Gillan says "there wasn't that much" before - has been enhanced and better use is being made of the team's simulator. Williams, despite being one of the first teams to employ what has turned into a must-have tool, were behind in this area, it seems.
Mark Gillan Williams chief operations engineer
"We're not content with what's happened. It's pleasing but it's not the endgame by any means"
There was also an acceptance that the previous technical director, Sam Michael, was doing too much. He resigned last April to set in process the senior staff changes and is now at McLaren as sporting director. Michael's former twin responsibilities at Williams have now been split between Coughlan and Gillan.
"Mike is the boss," Gillan says. "As technical director he is responsible for the whole programme, and I look after the trackside operations."
The sense of rebirth at Williams extends as far as Coughlan himself.
This is his first job in F1 since he was sacked as McLaren's chief designer for his central role in the 'spygate' scandal of 2007, when he was found to have nearly 800 pages of confidential Ferrari technical information in his possession.
Williams have offered him a rehabilitation - but not one that extends to talking to the media.
Coughlan, 53, has previously worked for Lotus, Tyrrell, Benetton, Ferrari and Arrows and, as Gillan puts it, "brings a wealth of experience".
Gillan added: "He's extremely adept at giving immediate input into what's going to work and what's not. He gives very good direction to the heads of department.
"He's very hands-on and easy to talk to and very direct in what he wants. He makes it clear what he's aiming to achieve, so there is no misunderstanding."
Clearly 2012 has got off to a positive start, but Williams want more.
In a statement that could have come from team founder Sir Frank Williams himself, Gillan says: "We're not content with what's happened. It's pleasing but it's not the endgame by any means."
The aim, he says, is by the end of the season to qualify in the top 10 and finish in the points at every race.
For a team with such an illustrious history, seventh place in the constructors' championship is never going to be the limit of their ambitions.
But suggest Williams are back on the rails and Gillan will at least allow that they are "definitely pointing in the right direction".
"The onus," he adds, "is to keep that smile on our face."

How To Spot A Winning Scratcher Ticket
Many people just buy a random scratcher ticket, fish out a coin and begin scratching off, yet they have never won more than a few bucks. Why do you think that is? The truth is that all scratch off lottery tickets have different odds. Some games have better odds than others. The secret to win scratch-offs is that you need to find out which tickets have the better odds. Then you can stick to certain scratchers and ignore others.
Scratch-off tickets are mass-printed, using a computer program that spits out the numbers. These numbers are far from being 'random' as the issuing lottery company needs to control the number of winning tickets. Actually, they are carefully calculated, according to a specific algorithm that produces the numbers. This clearly means that the scratch-off lottery might actually be cracked. Click here to learn how to spot a winning scratch-off ticket.
So let's start off with some basic tips on how to win scratchers. Here are a few tips you can use to increase the chances of winning. The first thing you need to do is compare the odds of whatever game you are going to play. Make sure you compare only the scratchers of the same value. Therefore if you are playing a $5 scratcher, only compare the odds for $5. $1 tickets generally have worse odds than the $5 or $10 tickets. Be sure to limit your loss by deciding before playing how much you are willing to lose!
Finding the odds for each game is easy. Most of the states have them posted on their website. The odds are also on the back of the ticket. All you have to do is select the one with the best odds. Each game and each area has different odds for their scratch offs. Single state lotteries usually have odds of about 18 million : 1, while the odds for multiple state lotteries are about 120 million : 1.
Now this tip alone will not win you the jackpot instantly but it will increase your odds of winning. And when you combine this secret along with all the other scratch off secrets, you will drastically increase your odds of winning the big jackpot for whatever scratcher you decide to play.

By Gianluca (Rio) Di Caro: Francis and George Warren may be new to the boxing promotions business, but no one can deny they have hit the ground running. Their first show produced a Fight of the Year front runner, when Liam Walsh successfully defended his Commonwealth title in a proper barnstorming battle royale with Paul Appleby. Their second event see new star signing, Cruiserweight Leon Solid Williams, wrestle the Lonsdale belt from long time Champ Rob Nortons iron grip.
For their third event, at York Hall in Bethnal Green on Friday 18th November, and live on BoxNation (Sky platform channel 456) Francis and George have another major battle headlining, as former WBU and World Boxing Organization (WBO) Cruiserweight World Champion Enzo Maccarinelli makes his welcome return to the ring... as a Light Heavyweight.
Big Macs opponent on Friday will be unbeaten Gyorgy Marosi. This will be no easy fight for Maccarinelli, as Marosi is a tough battler who has stopped eight of his twelve opponents and is the reigning Hungarian Super Middleweight Champion.
Whilst I do not know too much about Marosis fights, well all the reports are in Hungarian and whilst I do speak various languages Hungarian is not one of them. Saying that I have had a good look at his record though.
The first thing that struck me was this guy is a fast starting big hitter - having stopped six opponents in two rounds or less, one in the third and one in the fifth. His biggest scalp to date is Arnold Turos, who was 14-1 with six KOs when he faced Marosi, who stopped him in the first round.
Now Maccarinelli is another thing altogether, how could I not know about his career, Im a big fan of the Cruiserweight division and he was a two time World Champion.
As a Cruiserweight Maccarinelli overcame an early career loss, to Lee Swaby in only his fourth contest, to build up an impressive record before becoming. one of the biggest names on the World scene.
With ten excellent wins, seven within the distance, under his belt since the loss to Swaby, the Welshman challenged for the vacant WBU World title, against the seriously tough Bruce Lionheart Scott. Maccarinelli overcome a first round knockdown to stop the durable Scott in the fourth and lift the coveted crown.
Maccarinelli successfully defended his crown seven times, with only two going the full distance. His first, against Andrei Karsten in September 2003, lasted just one minute and ten seconds. His second victim, sorry opponent, Earl Morais fared just a little better, having lasted until the one minute thirty second mark before being knocked out.
In February 2004 Garry Delaney visited the canvas no less than seven times before referee Dave Parris decided to call a halt to the proceedings after two minutes and thirty seven seconds of the eighth round.
Five months later Ismail Abdoul achieved something no one else had during Maccarinellis reign to that point, he went the distance. Saying that he was totally outclassed by the Swansea man, who had out pointed the Belgium by a 120-108 and 119-109 (twice) margin.
Two further stoppage finishes followed, a third round knockout of Jesper Kristiansen in September 2004 and a fourth round stoppage of Americas Rich LaMontagne in January 2005.
For his final defense, of the WBU title, Maccarinelli faced and beat former British, Commonwealth and WBU World Champion Mark Hobson in a thrilling encounter at the M.E.N. in Manchester in March 2006.
In his next bout Maccarinelli challenged Marcelo Fabian Dominguez for the interim WBO title. In yet another thriller Big Mac added another stoppage finish to his record, this time a ninth round TKO finish.
Seven months after their first encounter Maccarinelli and Mark Hobson again went to war, this time for the full WBO World crown. Big Macc took no chances and dispatched Hobson after just one minute and eleven seconds of the first round.
In April 2007 American Bobby Gunn crossed the Atlantic to try his luck against Swanseas finest, without success as Big Mac stopped him after just two minutes and thirty five seconds of the first round.
three months later another American, Wayne Braithwaite, made the trip to see if he could do what Gunn couldnt and take the belt away from Maccarinelli. He couldnt either although he did manage to go the distance to become the only person that did during Big Macs reign as WBO champ.
In November 2007 Mohamed Azzaoui made the even longer flight, from New Zealand, but got sent back home after just fifty eight seconds of the fourth round.
Then it was the big one, on the 8th March 2008 Maccarinelli and WBC/WBA World Champion David Haye locked horns in a unification Battle Royale. The fierce battle lasted just over five minutes before the almighty Haye became the unified Champ.
One non-championship bout followed before Maccarinelli was back on the Championship trail, this time against American exiled Brit Ola Afolabi for the interim WBO title. Maccarinellis fans could see their man easily cruising towards another title, when the unthinkable happened - Afolabi, who was way behind on points, was under big pressure and was backed up to the ropes, as Maccarinelli started to unload Afolabi let rip with a sharp right and sent Big Mac down and out.
Maccarinelli brush him self down and in his very next fight challenged Denis Lebedev for the vacant WBO Inter-Continental belt. Big Macs luck had run out as after just two minutes and twenty seconds of the third round referee Terry OConnor called a halt to the proceedings to save Maccarinelli suffering another knockout.
Two further non-championship bouts followed, neither opponent were to go the distance, before Maccarinelli challenged Alexander Kotlobay for the vacant European crown. The Mac was back, having dispatched Kotlobay in just two minutes and fifteen seconds of the first round.
Unfortunately Maccranellis reign came to an abrupt halt, after being dropped twice heavily in the seventh round, by challenger Alexander Frenkel in September 2009.
Maccarinelli decided to switch to the Light Heavyweight division earlier this year and on Friday will make his first outing at this new weight. Word is he is stronger at the lower weight so even though Bonfire night was just over a week ago you can expect fireworks on Friday night.
Heading up the support is Tony Conquest versus Toks Owoh for the vacant Southern Area Cruiserweight title. New British Champ Leon Williams is sure to be taking a lot of interest in this fight, as its rumoured that the winner of this then gets to face him early in the new year.
This will be former World #3 ranked Super Middleweight Owohs first shot at a Cruiserweight belt.
With just two wins under his belt since moving to the division, back in March, Owoh may find his much younger opponent too much to handle. Conquest is some twelve years Owohs junior and is unbeaten in seven outings.
The leveler may be experience, Owoh has not only fought eighteen times more than Conquest but has also fought a Championship bout previously, having fought and lost to American Glenn Johnson for the IBF Inter-Continental Super Middleweight title.
The undercard features a plethora of local prospects, including the exciting young Lightweight prospect Billy Morgan, who is coached by the legendary Jimmy Tibbs and his son Mark at the TRAD TKO gym in Canning Town, and Graham Earls unbeaten protégé, Heavyweight Tom Little.
Southamptons unbeaten Light Welterweight Matty Tew makes his first trip to the famous York Hall, whilst Light Heavyweight Menay Edwards makes a much shorter trip from Crayford.
Finally, and adding an International flavour to the proceedings, is Norwegian Featherweight Andreas Evensen. Some may remember former WBO Inter-Continental Champion Evensen, as last year he crossed the North Sea to unsuccessfully challenge WBO World Champ Ricky Burns for his Super Featherweight crown.
Francis and George Warrens Queensberry promotion event, headlined by the Enzo Maccarinelli versus Gyorgy Marosi, takes place at the York Hall in Bethnal Green, and broadcast live on BoxNation (Sky Platform Ch. 456), on Friday the 18th November 2011.

Harold Lederman Ring 8 Nov. Guest Speaker
NEW YORK, NY (November 13, 2011) - Renown boxing judge and HBO analyst Harold Lederman will be the special guest speaker Tuesday evening (Nov. 15) for RING 8's monthly meeting (7 PM/ET start) at the historic Waterfront Crabhouse in Long Island City.
Lederman, who hails from the Bronx, was an International judge (1967-1989) who worked more than 100 world title fights. Today, he plays a key role as HBO's World Championship Boxing judge analyst.
A graduate of Columbia University, the popular and recognizable Lederman was the 2006 "Good Guys Award" winner of the Boxing Writers Association of America. He is a World Boxing Hall of Fame inductee and this March, it was recently announced, he will also be inducted into New York State Boxing Hall of Fame inaugural class.
"Harold is a good friend, longtime Ring 8 member and one of the most respected people in boxing," RING 8 president Bob Duffy said. "His support for Ring 8 and its work over the years has been invaluable. Harold is a real New York boxing guy. We're grateful to him for agreeing to be our guest speaker this month."
Formed in 1954 by an ex-prizefighter, Jack Grebelsky, RING 8 became the eighth subsidiary of what was then known as the National Veteran Boxers Association -- hence, RING "8" -- and today the organization's motto still remains: Boxers Helping Boxers.
RING 8 is fully committed to supporting the less fortunate people in the boxing community that may require assistance in terms of paying rent, medical expenses, or whatever justifiable need.
Go on line to www.Ring8ny.com for more information about RING 8, the largest group of its kind in the United States with more than 350 members. Annual membership dues is only $25.00 and each member is entitled to a buffet dinner at RING 8 monthly meetings, the third Tuesday of every month, excluding July and August.
Deal Reached: Roy Jones, Jr. Dec. 10 Fight to be Shown Live on Ustream.TV via Worldwide Internet Pay Per View
After months of negotiating, Ustream.TV will again throw its hat in the boxing ring on Dec. 10 in Atlanta, GA. This fight will feature the Resurrection of the Legendary 12 Time World Champion, Roy Jones, Jr. fighting Max Alexander for the UBO Inter-Continental Title. This fight will be shown Live on Internet Pay Per View for the reasonable cost of $9.99. The link for the Internet Pay Per Vew is http://www.ustream.tv/royjones.
The interesting thing is that no major TV station showed the major promoter of this event any serious interest in showing the Roy Jones, Jr. fight live. After the numerous years of exciting historical fights that the legend has given the public and TV it seems that if Bernard Hopkins at 46 years old can be televised, Roy Jones, Jr. should be televised.
However, with the new innovative ideas and improvements of the internet, the global giant, Ustream.TV, has excitedly stepped up to the plate and was willing to fill the void that the traditional, often times out-dated network stations missed. The legendary global brand name of Roy Jones, Jr., combined with the equally global internet brand name of Ustream.TV creates a powerful synergy that will help catapult the archaic overpriced boxing platform into the new era. Internet TV is be the new frontier as Roy Jones, Jrs famous song is aptly titled Cant Be Stopped.
The public will be getting a blockbuster event. The Legend. Roy Jones, Jr., will be fighting for the UBO Cruiserweight Inter-Continental Title against Max Alexander in a 10 Rd Bout, Up and coming, undefeated, young and exciting fighter Chris Howard (13-0), will be fighting for the NABA US Lightweight Title plus a 10 bout under card fight with both MMA and Pro Boxing on the card. All of this on internet pay per view for only $9.99. This is a true value, at a price that anyone worldwide can afford in a medium anyone worldwide can access the internet. Is this signaling the end of one overpriced out-of-date platform and the beginning of a new and exciting broadcasting adventure internet pay per view?

The confrontations between police and demonstrators at the Stonewall Inn in New York City the weekend of June 27-29, 1969 mark the beginning of the modern glbtq movement for equal rights.
Formed soon after the Stonewall Riots of 1969, the short-lived but influential Gay Liberation Front brought a new militancy to the movement that became known as gay liberation.
The sexual revolution of post-World War II America changed sexual and gender roles profoundly.
"Leather" is a blanket term for a large array of sexual preferences, identities, relationship structures, and social organizations loosely tied together by the thread of what is conventionally understood as sadomasochistic sex.
Although best known for her crusade for women's suffrage, Susan B. Anthony spoke out on a range of feminist issues.
With reports from hundreds of sub-Saharan African locales of male-male sexual relations and from about fifty of female-female sexual relations, it is clear that same-sex sexual relations existed in traditional African societies, though varying in forms and in the degree of public acceptance
Androgyny, a psychological blending of gender traits, has long been embraced by strong women, soft men, members of queer communities, and others who do not easily fit into traditionally defined gender categories.
A cultural crossroads between Asia and Europe, Russia has a long, rich, and often violent heritage of varied influences and stark confrontations in regard to its patterns of same-sex love.
On February 21, 2014, U.S. District Judge Sharon Johnson Coleman ruled that Cook County same-sex couples may marry immediately notwithstanding the fact that Illinois's recently adopted marriage equality law does not take effect until June 1, 2014. The ruling, which applies to Cook County but may be extended throughout the state, comes in a lawsuit filed by Lambda Legal and the ACLU of Illinois on behalf of several gay and lesbian couples.
As reported by Chicago Sun-Times, Judge Johnson Coleman said in her ruling, "There is no reason to delay further when no opposition has been presented to this Court and committed gay and lesbian couples have already suffered from the denial of their fundamental right to marry."
Cook County Clerk David Orr said his office will issue licenses immediately and couples can get married as soon as Saturday.
"I'm thrilled same-sex couples who want to get married won't have to wait any longer," he said in a statement. "We are very excited to celebrate this historic milestone with every loving couple from today onward."
Patricia Tucker, one of the plaintiffs in the case, along with her partner Ingrid Swenson, was overjoyed to hear the news.
"We've been married in our heads, now we'll have a piece of paper to prove it," Tucker said.
Orr cautioned couples that the license is only good for 60 days.
"Don't rush to get your license if you have a summer wedding planned because you don't want your licence to expire before your big day," he said in the statement.
The ruling in the class-action lawsuit against the Cook County Clerk's office directly affects only same-sex marriages in Cook County, but advocates say that it should apply throughout the state.
A spokesperson for the ACLU of Illinois said in a statement, "Today's decision recognizes the constitutional right of couples to marry the person they love now, without waiting for that arbitrary deadline. It also builds on momentum from decisions across the nation, recognizing the freedom to marry for couples from Virginia to Oklahoma. We are thrilled to be part of this historic decision. Illinois is a fairer, stronger state moving forward."
ACLU of Illinois communications and public policy director Edwin C. Yohnka told BuzzFeed that "We are urging other clerks to abide by the ruling."<'p>
Lambda Legal's Camilla Taylor hopes that the ruling encourages other county clerks "do the right thing" and allow same-sex marriages immediately. She told BuzzFeed that ruling was a "facial ruling"--meaning the judge determined the law was unconstitutional in all circumstances. Thus, she said, it is applicable statewide.
In November 2013, Illinois became the 16th state to legalize same-sex marriage, but the law passed by the legislature does not take effect until June 1, 2014.
In December, Judge Johnson Coleman ruled that same-sex couples in which one or both partners has a life-threatening illness may do so immediately. That ruling came after Vernita Gray and Patricia Ewert became the first same-sex couple to wed in Illinois after they received an expedited license from another judge because of Gray's health problems.
As Michelle Manchir reports in the Chicago Tribune, within an hour of Judge Johnson Coleman's ruling on February 21, gay and lesbian couples began showing up at the Chicago Clerk's office to apply for marriage licenses. Clerk David Orr even married a couple Friday afternoon.
The video below reports on the same-sex marriages in Chicago.

Policeman Solo
Jack's here today in uniform to get the job done. All he needs now is your attention and his "baton." In this Boykakke.com video, Jack uses the "tools of the trade," to get himself off; "cum" along for the ride, he may need back-up. Jack has a nice hairy chest, unique to most Asian guys. Check out his bushy underarms as well. As he strips and fondles, his nipples pop up like a "Tom Turkey Timer;" I think this boy is ready to be eaten. Using his baton, he massages his fine body then loses the pants. He has some sexy black underwear on and rubs his dick through the material. As the camera pans down, Jack definitely has a package large enough for two. Ah, what's this, a nice happy trail leading down to his equipment, sweet. Now if you're counting, Jack suddenly has three hands working him; no fear, sometimes a "solo" becomes a "friendly solo." Hell, if I were there, I'd be licking from top to taint.

Here's One Really Vulgar, Hilarious Irish Olympics Commentator
This Olympic sailing commentator couldn't contain his disdain for the sport, resorting to commentary more colorful than usual like calling one competitor a dickhead and these spectators idiots, plus just making stuff up. I'm about 90 percent sure this is fake, but it's just too funny to think it might not be.

FEDERAL Treasurer Wayne Swan and Prime Minister Julia Gillard have hit the airwaves and TV shows as they continue the hard-sell on the 2013 Budget.
Mr Swan, in his sixth and possibly last Budget, delivered a $19.4 billion deficit on the back of a $17 billion hit to revenue forecasts. His first Budget surplus is forecast for 2015/16 after a balanced result a year before that.
Wondering how the changes in the Budget will affect your life?

These idiots can't manage a chook raffle let alone balance a budget. No budget surplus since 89, no hope of ever balancing this budget - just talk of it until it came time to produce. When is someone going to challenge this repeated lie about 'huge revenue hits' when the levels are pre GFC. It's just a case of spending more than they budgeted for or have the ability to finance without debt.

How can Abbott help families by axing jobs, school kids bonus, mining tax and carbon tax as well as giving more ridiculous unaffordable tax cuts to the richest few like Howard did - it didnt create a single job then, it won't create more jobs now. No wonder he cant guarantee a surplus, he plans to cut many taxes when tax income is at an all time low and keeps dropping to the GFC.

So, is that the same Treasury that Labor had check the Coalition's independent budget at the last election and came up with a $7bn black hole. Well, it would seem Swanny trumped that one many times over, didn't he? A $300bn debt! So they've actually spent $380bn of our money? They've really outdone themselves this time. Thinking he should be returning a certain trophy.

Probably one of the worst acting moments in her career. Crocodile tears won't buy votes.

Rikers Island Lawsuits Over Diabetic Care
By Albert Samaha
April 23: After delivering Easter baskets to kids at Metropolitan Hospital and doing a spirited reading of Peter Rabbit, he returned to his Elián commentary: "The big winner yesterday was Fidel Castro," he declared. "He's been orchestrating this." The INS agents "were dressed up as if they were in the middle of a war action," he said, without returning explicitly to his "storm trooper" mantra. Critics had already reminded Rudy of his repeated denunciations of anyone who invokes Nazi imagery as a cheapening of the Holocaust.
April 24: Hillary Clinton said Rudy was exploiting Elián's case for political gain and that Rudy's rhetoric was "extreme." The 17,500-member Federal Law Enforcement Officers Association issued a statement expressing their "strong disgust and dismay" over Rudy's choice of words.
When a reporter offered to read Clinton's brief statement, Rudy cut him off: "I don't really care what she said," he raved. Repeating the three names three times, he excoriated "Fidel Castro, Bill Clinton, and Janet Reno," launching into a 15-minute monologue about his own immigration experience as the third-ranking official of the Justice Department in the Reagan administration. He did not mention that the INS commissioner who orchestrated the Elián raid, Doris Meissner, ran the agency under him as well. Nor did he mention that his 1981-82 blockade and exclusion policies sent thousands of Haitian refugeesincluding six-year-old boysback into the arms of the brutal Duvalier regime.
April 25: The day before his biopsy, and aware by now of both PSA results, he refused to apologize for characterizing the INS agents as storm troopers, though he tried to shift the onus of the comments exclusively onto Clinton and Reno. "I'm not going to back down from it," he insisted. When he made his cancer announcement two days later, he said that once he got the second high-PSA report, he "expected" the biopsy to be positive and "started thinking about how I would handle it." Apparently, standing firm on storm troopers was his first response.
April 26: Returning to City Hall after his still-secret biopsy, he called a reporter who survived gastric cancer two years earlier a "jerk" and an "embarrassment." The incident occurred while he was taking reporters through newly installed metal detectors at the entrances to City Hall Plaza, a security measure he adopted after losing a First Amendment lawsuit over access to the steps. A group of 12- to-16-year-old kids from London surrounded him and he began chatting with them about the city. When Rafael Martinez Alequin, publisher of an independent paper called The Free Press, asked the kids if they had "this type of security in London," Rudy blew up:
"Don't pay any attention to him. He doesn't even have a newspaper. We have embarrassments in America. He's one of them. Jerk. Jerk. I mean it's ridiculous." Alequin told Newsday, the only paper to report the rant: "He has insulted me before, but never so blatantly, and directly in front of a group of school children."
The Times published a brief item in its late edition revealing that Giuliani underwent tests for prostate cancer during a three-hour visit to a hospital that morning. NY1 aired the story that night as well, leaving Giuliani no choice but to do his next-morning press conference.
April 27: When Alequin, whose grace exceeded Rudy's, assured him at the press briefing that "there is life after cancer," he replied: "I know that. And thank you. Thank you for saying that."
When reporters shifted from cancer to cops and asked about the U.S. Civil Rights Commission report leaked that morning to the Times, he denounced it. "They're a joke. I say that most respectfully," he laughed. "If you take what they're saying seriously . . . they're a big joke." The 9 percent of Staten Islanders who are black and were among the 91 percent of Staten Islanders stopped and friskedas the report revealedweren't laughing.
Donna Still-Don't-Call-Me-Giuliani issued a written statement that actually announced that she and Rudy had "discussed" his cancer and that she was both "optimistic" and "supportive." In the most awkward sentence of the day, Donna's statement declared: "It would be appreciated if he is given the maximum opportunity possible to deal with this privately." The statement could not say "we would appreciate it" since the first-person plural is as banned a phrase as the last name. Nor could it say, "he would appreciate it," since Rudy had already been very public about every aspect of the crisis. What she meant was that no one should question her own continuing unwillingness to take on an acting role that she has declined to play in recent yearsthe loving wife.
After getting a standing ovation from 200 Queens residents at a town hall meeting the night of his cancer press conference, he got one tough question from a man in the audience who said he knew someone with medical problems who was denied public assistance. "Can you imagine having a serious disease and not having the health benefits to deal with it?" the man asked. "Do you feel personally responsible?"
"That's really an unfair question, but I am used to dealing with unfair questions," fired back the mayor who's lost cases at the highest state levels and in federal court over his administration's arbitrary denials of medicaid and other benefits to AIDS patients and other welfare recipients. He then defended the city's public assistance policies. There were a quarter of a million fewer city residents receiving medicaid in February than there were five years agoin part due to aggressive Giuliani efforts to restrict health benefits.

The farm is always hopping
Everett's summer petting zoo is back, and more popular than ever

Forest Park petting zoo Monday morning in Everett
Kids came running to see the rabbits, horses and goats at the farm in Forest Park, at 802 E. Mukilteo Blvd.
Jenny Johnson of Bothell brings her kids every year. She started when her oldest was 2. Now, her daughter is 13 and Johnson has continued the tradition for her younger kids, ages 11, 7 and 3.
"They like everything that they can get close to and pet," Johnson said. "This is a great place."
Her 11-year-old daughter. Emma, likes the bunnies the most.
"They're just so cute and fun to watch," Emma said.
The summer mainstay at Forest Park has been open for 42 years, and it's never been more popular. Just this past sunny weekend, 3,300 visitors walked through the gates, said city of Everett recreation supervisor Karen Emory. That's the most for any weekend ever, she said.
And it was about 10 percent of the total number of visitors from last year.
The Animal Farm opened for the season June 30 and it will continue every day until Aug. 26.
Forest Park used to have a zoo, but it was closed because it was too costly to operate. In 1970, the farm opened because the community missed having animals at the park, said Lori Cummings, assistant director for recreation and golf services for the city of Everett.
The farm has about 50 animals that include goats, alpacas, pigs and ducks. Children can pet the bunnies and the goats. They can also ride the horses.
The cost is free but the farm accepts donations. It costs $80,000 to run per year and depends on donations and city funds, Cummings said. She hopes the farm can get $6,500 in donations this year.
Most of the animals are loaned by local farmers. The animals arrived weeks before the start of the season so they can be put in quarantine and checked for disease, Emory said. They are returned when the farm closes. Every year, the farm gets new animals.
"It's rare to have animals returning," Emory said.
Goats are left to roam free because their temperament allows small children to get close to them, recreational coordinator Barry Martin said.
While the farm opens at 10 in the morning, the seasonal staff and volunteers arrive early to clean the stalls, fences and barns. They also feed the animals and let them out.
Farm manager Sherry Russell arrives about 6:30 a.m. to make sure staff members have schedules and lists of chores for the day. Her goal is for staff and visitors to have a good experience visiting the farm.
"Some of these kids have not touched these animals before," Russell said.
Amy Jones of Lake Stevens brought her four children to pet the goats. There are not that many petting farms anymore, so the Animal Farm provides an opportunity to see these animals, she said.
That's what her oldest daughter, Tessa, 7, likes about the farm.
"I like to see different kinds of animals you don't usually see," Tessa said. "It's cool to pet the goats."

Meet the animals
The Animal Farm has opened for the summer at Forest Park, 802 E. Mukilteo Blvd., Everett. Hours are from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. every day. It is scheduled to close for the summer Aug. 26. Admission is free.

Phil Kessel: 'I could care less' about chant
|10.28.10 at 11:04 pm ET
The Maple Leafs had a tough night on Thursday as they were shut out by Tim Thomas, but nobody got it anywhere near as badly as Phil Kessel. The former Bruins' fifth overall pick left town after the B's, unable to strike an extension with him prior to last season, sent him to the Leafs for a package of draft picks. Since the trade, Kessel has been unable to muster a single goal against his former club, much to the delight of Bruins fans. Tyler Seguin, chosen second overall with Leafs' first-round pick acquired in the deal, put the cherry on top by scoring against his hometown Leafs in the second period.
The reaction to that? The loudest "Thank you, Kessel" chant that one could imagine.
"I was on the bench and I was trying not to laugh," Seguin admitted. "All the guys were kind of cracking up because it just stayed together so well. It was surprising."
While Seguin and teammates were amused ("It was kind of funny," Nathan Horton said), Kessel himself stuck to his pre-game attitude. After the Leafs' morning skate, he said that Bruins fans can "do whatever they want." And they did.
"I could care less, to tell you the truth," Kessel said. "It doesn't matter to me one bit."
Asked after the game whether he felt bad for the former Bruin, Seguin noted that with such a reception comes a level of respect.
"He was getting booed every time he touched the puck, so he's obviously doing something right," Seguin said. "Hopefully I get booed in a rink, too. Hopefully not in Boston."

Malcolm Thomas has a tough decision to make. The 76ers reserve power forward has been playing with fluid on his left knee for the last week in a half. He had an MRI on Tuesday. If he decides to have surgery, the 6-foot-9, 225-pounder will be sidelined four weeks. If not, he'll continue to play in pain. "I had it drained last week, Thomas said, "and it swelled back up on me . . .. [The knee] is just filled up. I got cartilage just floating around."

I read them in junior high (like, late 90s) so I *think* they're written for teens...
The first book in the series involves a fever of unknown origin. It's making people especially sick and runs very high. In the end we find out that one of the businessmen brought it home after a recent trip out of the country. It's sad because his daughter was the first death.
The other ones involve a snowstorm and an earthquake...and I think either a fire or flood. The titles are very simple. I keep thinking the first one is "fever" but I can't find it.
I'd love to read them again but I can't FIND THEM and it's driving me batty.

Reiterating the principle that in murder cases awarding of the death penalty is an exception and life sentence is the rule, the Supreme Court has commuted the death sentence, awarded to an accused in a triple murder case, to life imprisonment.
Giving this ruling, a three-judge Bench of Justices H.L. Dattu, S.J. Mukhopadaya and M.Y. Eqbal said: "In a civilised society a tooth for a tooth and an eye for an eye ought not to be the criterion to clothe a case with the 'rarest of the rare' jacket and the courts must not be propelled by such notions in a haste resorting to capital punishment."
Writing the judgment, Justice Dattu said: "Our criminal jurisprudence cautions the courts of law to act with utmost responsibility by analysing the finest strands of the matter and it is in that perspective a reasonable proportion has to be maintained between the brutality of the crime and the punishment. It falls squarely upon the court to award the sentence having due regard to the nature of offence such that neither is the punishment disproportionately severe nor is it manifestly inadequate, as either case would not subserve the cause of justice to the society. In jurisprudential terms, an individual's right of not to be subjected to cruel, arbitrary or excessive punishment cannot be outweighed by the utilitarian value of that punishment."
The Bench said: "All murders are inhuman, some only more so than others. The degree of brutality has to be ascertained in contrast with other cases and the criteria and the tests laid down in a catena of cases must writ large upon the courts the caution which must be borne in mind while declaring a crime so revolting and diabolical that it warrants nothing less but capital punishment."
"Further this court has consistently held that the number of deaths or the factum of whole family being wiped off cannot be the sole criterion for determining whether the case falls into the category of 'rarest of rare.' We cannot lose sight of the fact that brutality also cannot be the only criterion for determining whether a case falls under the 'rarest of rare' categories," it said.
In the instant case, the appellant Gudda alias Dwarikendra was awarded the death sentence by a lower court in Madhya Pradesh for causing the death of his nephew, his daughter-in-law and five-year-old grandson in his house after inviting them for lunch.
The Madhya Pradesh High Court and a Jabalpur court confirmed the death sentence and the present appeal is directed against this judgment.
Commuting his death sentence into life imprisonment, the Bench said: "Indeed victims of the crime include an innocent child of 5 years and a pregnant lady who were assaulted by the appellant who was then in a position of trust having invited them to his house for lunch. But this alone would not be sufficient to place the crime in 'rarest of the rare' category. Further, the appellant is a young man of about 35 years and neither does he have any criminal antecedents nor is it stated that he is or has been an anti-social element. The future possibilities of his reform also cannot be ruled out.
We are of the considered view that the brutality as evinced by the appellant would not fall within the ambit of the 'rarest of the rare' cases so as to exercise the discretion of imposing capital punishment."
