Ghana's mixed fortune as a dumping ground for e-waste
Return to Kuwait: The class of 1990

Later three more officers were killed in a shootout with gunmen in the drug-plagued northern border city of Ciudad Juarez.
"If we remain with our arms crossed, we will remain in the hands of organised crime, we will always live in fear"
Felipe Calderon, Mexican president
The latest in a series of mass slayings came as Felipe Calderon, the Mexican president, defended his crackdown on drug gangs in an essay on his office's website.
Calderon vowed no let up in the campaign despite criticism that violence has only surged since he deployed thousands of troops and federal police in late 2006 seeking to crush the drug gangs.
"I'm clearly convinced that we would be in a much worse situation if we hadn't decided to fight criminals," he wrote in the 5,000-word essay, which was published by several newspapers.
"If we remain with our arms crossed, we will remain in the hands of organised crime, we will always live in fear."
Calderon also blamed Mexico's violence on the high demand for illegal drugs from across the border in the United States.
Last year in an attack on law enforcement the bloodied and tortured bodies of a dozen federal agents were found dumped along a highway in Michoacan state, the place where Calderon first launched his crackdown.
The US State Department has issued a travel warning urging US citizens "to exercise extreme caution" when travelling in Michoacan.
The state is known as a stronghold of the La Familia cartel, known for beheading its rivals and making bold attacks on government security forces.
At least 23,000 people, mainly traffickers and police, have been killed in drug-related violence since Calderon launched an army-led offensive against drug gangs after taking office in December 2006.

Enjoyed it mostly, a bit unconvincing.,
Verified Purchase(What is this?)
This review is from: The Holy Blood And The Holy Grail (Mass Market Paperback)
Interesting, though a bit turgid in places. I somehow got the feeling that some elements of the argument were being presented as if they'd occurred to the authors as they were going along, when in fact, the conclusions that were being drawn only made sense in terms of the argument as a whole and these particular elements were actually being interpreted after the fact, in order to strengthen their case. I don't know why it seemed like that - perhaps some of the conclusions that they seemed to think were the most probable given the evidence didn't seem to me to be probable at all! Despite this, I enjoyed it on the whole, and I actually felt like I'd learnt something - about European history if nothing else!

The fine art of the beard: Evgeny Lebedev v Jeremy Paxman
When Jeremy Paxman unveiled his new hirsute look on Newsnight this week the world went wild. London's beard guru Evgeny Lebedev responds
Published: 14 August 2013
Updated: 11:51, 14 August 2013
Whatever one's views on the specifics (and we'll discuss those later), Jeremy Paxman got one thing right. A beard, like a great work of art or literature, must meet its public fully formed.
Like the stunning art deco pinnacle of New York's Chrysler building which was constructed in strict secrecy behind thick scaffold, then unveiled with a flourish to the gape-jawed masses, a beard's unglamorous early stages are rightly not a matter for public consumption.
Indeed, few men whose troublesome adolescences are lived in the public domain go on to be taken seriously as adults, and in this respect a beard and a man are the same.
If faced with those dreadful words: "Are you trying to grow a beard?" you must make an instant choice. Either dispense with it immediately, or return to your private quarters until the work is done.
So what to make of the nation's most talked-about beard (I am prepared to lend Mr Paxman the honour, temporarily)? If such is his tactic, he would not be the first figure living under the unforgiving glare of the public spotlight to relax his shaving regimen when confronted with what W B Yeats called the sorrows of the changing face.
Already the Paxman beard has been quite correctly described as "gracious" and "avuncular", words one does not instantly associate with the country's most feared television combatant. Every politician out there who sleeps each night on some dastardly secret — and there are many — might just do so a little easier now, a reality Mr Paxman will not enjoy.
A broadly positive reaction has greeted his new look, but it was always a gamble. Beards transform faces in different ways. Trotsky's short goatee turned his soft face into a mask of steely determination. Likewise, it is the sharply pointed triangle of thick dark hair that first leaps out from pictures of the cruel face of "Iron" Felix Dzerzhinsky, the Polish aristocrat who became the biggest killing machine of the Russian Revolution.
Yet these men serve as false inspiration to countless gents of a certain age who turn to the style in a desperate hope of reasserting angularity upon jawlines cruelly unchiselled by the hand of time — where a slowing down of the metabolism has simply not been countered by the necessary slowing at the buffet table. In such instances, even when the beard is fulsome, the tactic is transparent.
For my own part, and despite my earlier warnings, it was never my intention to grow one. I began merely with stubble, when I was around 25, but have ended where we are today. My grooming regime is very simple — an electric trimmer and occasionally a small brush. I can easily go for a week to 10 days without lavishing any attention up on my growth. If I am travelling, as recently in Ethiopia, I will just let it go, completely, like Leo Tolstoy, a style I've occasionally toyed with keeping. On these occasions, when alone or with close friends, I have been known to curl the ends of my moustache into rings.
Actually, the double-headed Roman god Janus may be a more apt comparison than Tolstoy. Janus is usually depicted with generous beards on both of his visages, and for those of us who live lives that look in two directions, a beard can give a man many faces. In Britain, I have been told people encounter my facial hair and see the last Emperor of Russia. In Russia itself, I'm more likely to be considered a Chechen terrorist or a Hasidic Jew (both comments made by my grandmothers, concerned I might be beaten up or arrested). In a North African souk recently people kept shouting "Ali Baba! Ali Baba!" at me, which is a little surprising given I was probably the only non-Arab there.
But a beard has its practical advantages too. British soldiers fighting the battle for hearts and minds in Afghanistan's remote villages were advised to grow beards before entering tribal villages, a fact I recalled as I approached Ismail Haniyeh, the delicately bearded leader of Hamas in Gaza last year.
Either way, one hopes Mr Paxman is aware of a crucial fact. Now that it is established, and for the most part liked, he must carry his beard through to the end. A beard must never be a slave to the fickle vagaries of fashion. Those who wear them fleetingly never command respect. Even for such luminaries as David Beckham or Brad Pitt, their flirtations with facial hair will be remembered as distinct troughs in their varying sartorial tides. A beard is nothing less than the rock on which the wave of fashion breaks.
The Greek historian Thucydides famously said of his work that it was "not done to meet the tastes of the immediate public but to last for ever". Little is, in fact, known about the man's appearance, but history has assigned him a facial appendage both full and luscious, and these facts cannot be unconnected.

PM calls for cut to Euro funds
The Prime Minister has said that funds from the European Union which aid west Wales and the Valleys, need to be cut as part of moves to freeze the EU's budget.
The Prime Minister has said that funds from the European Union which aid west Wales and the Valleys, need to be cut as part of moves to freeze the EU's budget.
The Prime Minister has said that the European Union's cohesion and structural funds, which aid west Wales and the Valleys, need to be cut. David Cameron was answering questions in the Commons about EU leaders' failure to agree a new budget last week.
I am concerned that the Prime Minister says that there are savings to be made in cohesion and structural funds. He is aware that many areas of the UK, such as west Wales and the Valleys, enjoy receiving such payments. Is he saying that he can foresee a cut in that support?
There is a need for cuts in the overall cohesion and structural funds budget of the European Union. We should be frank and honest as a country in saying that, although there are regions of the UK that still benefit and should go on benefiting from structural funds, such funds should, on the whole, be for the poorest regions of the poorest countries. Britain's negotiating position is different from that of many countries in that we do not go to Brussels and simply defend every penny that we receive; we try to seek an outcome that is right for the whole European Union.
When west Wales and the Valleys got aid from the 2000-06 EU budget, it was thought it would be a one-off. But the current budget, covering 2007-13, includes1.2 billion Euros for the region. In 2014-20, the European Commission expects Wales to concentrate on advanced manufacturing and research.
There will also be help with improving transport links but the overall amount of money will depend of the size of the budget for the next seven years. The Commission insists that the aid must come from the European Union and that the UK Government should not run Britain's regional aid programme.
There may be a few clear spells to start the night but towards the early hours of tomorrow morning things will turn wetter from the west.

'Standing up for the tall guy's right to sit down': £13 gadget promises extra legroom by locking plane seat in front to stop it from reclining
- Device is made up of two pieces of plastic that clip on to tray table arms
- It stops chair in front from reclining - guaranteeing passenger legroom
- Comes with 'Courtesy Card' alerting flyer in front to its use
It's the gadget that gives passengers who hate their legroom being invaded by reclining plane seats a chance to fight back.
The Knee Defender - billed with the tagline 'Standing up for the right of the tall guy to sit down' - is two pieces of plastic that are clipped on to the seat in front on a flight.
Fastening on to the arms of the tray table, the device, which costs £13, it locks the chair in front into place, preventing the passenger from reclining.
Guaranteed legroom: The £13 gadget clips on to the tray table arms, preventing the seat in front from reclining
Knee Defender: The gadget was created by a 6ft 2ins American Ira Goldman
The Knee Defender is sold on Gadget Duck along with a note that the buyer can print out, fill in and hand to the passenger in front.
The 'Courtesy Card' tells the person in front that the gadget is being used, giving an choice of reasons including: 'Unfortunately, my legs are so long that if you recline your seat at all it would immediately bang into my knees.'
It continues to state that it 'may be an inconvenience' and encourages the passenger to complain to the airline 'to provide enough space between rows so that people can recline their seats without banging into other passengers'.
Pocket-size: The Knee Defender is no bigger than a front door key
Lack of space: The device prevents the seat in front from reclining, guaranteeing your legroom
According to news.com.au, one user on Reddit who posted that he had been given the note on board a flight, wrote: 'Guy sitting behind me on the plane handed me this as I was finding my seat before take off (my seat was up).
'I had no idea what to say.'
The gadget was invented by 6ft 2ins Ira Goldman, from the US.
According to the company's site: 'Knee Defenders are specifically designed to be used with your tray table lowered, while your tray table must be up and locked during taxiing, takeoffs or landings.
Courtesy Card: The note is handed to the passenger in front, alerting them to why the gadget is being used
Locked in place: The Knee Defender also comes with a Courtesy Card to alert the passenger in front
'So, as long as Knee Defenders are being used as they are designed to be used in flight, their use does not violate any US aviation law, rule, or regulation.'
It adds: 'If the airlines will not protect people from being battered, crunched, and immobilized – very real problems according to healthcare professionals, medical studies, government agencies, and even some airlines – then people need options to protect themselves.'
Although the product does not violate any aviation laws, individual airlines can choose to ban its use on board their flights.

Undercoverman Finds a Poem about the Greek Debt Crisis
by Leonard D Goodisman
Efcharisto and parakalo
The Greeks are polite as all of us know
They wouldn't say boo
If they thought it scared you
So how did they get in this goo?
See a banker can make you a loan
If you will, and even if you won't.
It's not so important a good loan or bad,
Money you will have or money you had,
Good to repay, if not, well that's sad.
If you're hungry we'll serve up some soft feta cheese
And olives, think olives, they surely will please,
Lakerdo, Loukaniko with fine pita bread
Or you could have plain steamy octopus instead;
Avgolemono is great before bed.

The Rams went young -- too young -- almost out of necessity last season.
They dumped declining veterans with inflated salaries, going from one of the NFL's three-oldest teams to one of the five youngest in one offseason.
The team planned to add some veteran seasoning on more favorable terms this offseason, coach Steve Spagnuolo said at the NFL combine. Defensive tackle Fred Robbins, who turns 33 this month and played under Spagnuolo with the Giants, will add some of that seasoning after the Rams reached agreement with him Monday.
Robbins becomes the oldest player on the Rams' roster, beating Marc Bulger by less than two weeks. Quarterback A.J. Feeley, the Rams' other free-agent addition so far this offseason, becomes the third-oldest player on the roster, ahead of kicker Josh Brown (30), punter Donnie Jones (29) and offensive linemen Adam Goldberg and Jacob Bell (both 29).
Unrestricted free-agent defensive ends Leonard Little (35) and James Hall (33) would be the oldest if re-signed.
Even with Robbins, the Rams are the fourth-youngest team in the league, counting only signed players and reflecting known roster moves through Monday morning.

Educrats Confiscate Old Glory From Autistic 12-Year-Old
Imagine the mayhem that would result if bureauweenies weren't there to keep us safe. They even protect us from American flags brandished by autistic children.
A New Hampshire woman is upset that middle school officials confiscated her autistic son's American flag because the rod it was attached to was deemed a safety hazard and, the mother claims, a possible "weapon."
Theresa Stevens, of Dover, says her 12-year-old son, Shawn, brought the small flag to school to show friends. He had received it as a gift from a family friend whose son is in Afghanistan. …
"I got the phone call at 8:30 [Wednesday] morning," she said. "'This flag needs to be immediately removed from school because it can be considered a weapon.' I don't understand how an American flag can be considered a weapon."
Educrats bleat that the flag is attached to a rod with a dangerously pointy end — although it doesn't look as pointy as the pencils and compasses students routinely bring to class.
Next time Shawn should bring a rainbow flag to class if he doesn't want it confiscated.

Tuesday, 26 Feb 2013 06:53 PM
The American-led military coalition in Afghanistan backed off Tuesday from its claim that Taliban attacks dropped off in 2012, tacitly acknowledging a hole in its widely repeated argument that violence is easing and that the insurgency is in steep decline.
In response to Associated Press inquiries about its latest series of statistics on security in Afghanistan, the coalition command in Kabul said it had erred in reporting a 7 percent decline in attacks. In fact there was no decline at all, officials said.
Defense Secretary Leon Panetta, who is among the senior officials who had publicly repeated the assertion of an encouraging drop-off in Taliban attacks last year, was disturbed to learn of the error, said his spokesman, George Little.
"This particular set of metrics doesn't tell the full story of progress against the Taliban, of course, but it's unhelpful to have inaccurate information in our systems," Little said.
A coalition spokesman, Jamie Graybeal, attributed the miscounting to clerical errors and said the problem does not change officials' basic assessment of the war, which they say is on a positive track as American and allied forces withdraw.
The 7 percent figure had been included in a report posted on the website of the coalition, the International Security Assistance Force, on Jan. 22 as part of its monthly update on trends in security and violence. It was removed from the website recently without explanation. After the AP asked last week about the missing report, coalition officials said they were correcting the data and would re-publish the report. As of Tuesday afternoon it had not reappeared.
It was not clear whether or how the Pentagon might correct a separate report — its semi-annual report to Congress on security progress in Afghanistan, which used some of the same Taliban-attack statistics. The report was sent to Congress in December.
"We'll look at any adjustments that need to be made" to that report, Little said.
U.S. and allied officials have often cited declining violence as a sign that the Taliban have been degraded and that Afghan forces are in position to take the lead security role across the country when the last U.S. combat troops leave Dec. 31, 2014.
In mid-December, Panetta said "violence is down" for 2012 and Afghan forces "have gotten much better at providing security" in areas where they have taken the lead. He said the Taliban could be expected to continue to attack, "but overall they are losing."
Little said Panetta was briefed only "very recently" on the erroneous data.
U.S. and alliance officials try to measure progress against the Taliban from a variety of angles. Those include, for example, indications that the Taliban have lost much of their influence in population centers.
"The fact that 80 percent of the violence has been taking place in areas where less than 20 percent of the Afghan population lives remains unchanged," Little said.
The Taliban have lost a good deal of territory since a 2010 surge of U.S. forces in the southern provinces of Helmand and Kandahar, and they failed to recover it during the past two fighting seasons. Even so, they are resilient, and they are expected to severely test Afghan forces as the U.S. and its coalition partners step further into the background this year and complete their combat mission next year.
Many people, including coalition officials, have cautioned against the heavy reliance on statistics in assessing war progress. Yet the figures often are highlighted when they fit the narrative being promoted by leaders in Washington and other allied capitals.
"It is disturbing that, after 10 years of war, no reliable count of trends in violence exist even in terms of deaths, the most visible form of violence and one that is only a small portion of the actual causes and patterns of violence in the war," Anthony Cordesman of the Center for Strategic and International Studies wrote in February 2012.
Graybeal did not fully explain erroneous reporting of 2012 Taliban attacks by the International Security Assistance Force. It was not clear, for example, at what point the data errors began or who discovered them.
"During a quality control check, ISAF recently became aware that some data was incorrectly entered into the database that is used for tracking security-related incidents across Afghanistan," Graybeal said earlier.
He said an audit determined that portions of the data from unilateral Afghan military operations were "not properly reflected" in the trends ISAF had reported in its monthly updates.
"After including this unilateral ANSF (Afghan National Security Force) data into our database, we have determined that there was no change in the total number of EIAs (enemy initiated attacks) from 2011 to 2012," Graybeal said.
"This was a record-keeping error that we recognized and have now corrected," he added.
While ISAF routinely reports trends in Taliban attacks, it does not reveal exact numbers of attacks. Judging from its illustrative charts, however, it appears that there were more than 28,000 Taliban "enemy initiated" attacks in 2011.
The coalition defines enemy initiated attacks as those by small arms, mortars, rockets and improvised explosive devices, or IEDs. But it does not include IEDs that are found and cleared before they explode.
Trends in Taliban attacks are one yardstick used by ISAF to measure war progress. Others include the state of security in populated areas, the number of coalition and Afghan casualties, the level of economic activity, the degree to which civilians can move about freely and the performance of Afghan security forces.
Graybeal said that even though the number of 2012 Taliban attacks was unchanged from 2011, "our assessment of the fundamentals of campaign progress has not changed. The enemy is increasingly separated from the population, and the ANSF are currently in the lead for the vast majority of partnered operations."

Blues make Colaiacovo deal official: one year, $550,000
Nov 14, 2013, 10:44 AM EDT
Carlo Colaiacovo has passed all his medical tests and is ready to rejoin the Blues.
That was the word out of St. Louis on Thursday as the club officially announced it'd signed Colaiacovo to a one-year, $550,000 deal.
"With Jordan Leopold out for a significant period, we wanted to bring an experienced player into our group of seven," Blues GM Doug Armstrong in a statement. "Being a former Blue, Carlo is familiar with our organization which should make for an easy transition."
Colaiacovo, 30, enjoyed his finest NHL season with the Blues in 2009-10, scoring a career-high seven goals and 32 points while appearing in 67 games.
Toronto's first-round pick (17th overall) at the 2001 NHL Entry Draft, Colaiacovo has always been known as a skilled offensive defenseman, but one that struggles with the defensive side of the game and has issues staying healthy.
In four seasons with St. Louis, he missed at least 15 games every year to an assortment of ailments. That didn't stop Detroit from signing him to a two-year, $5 million deal just prior to the lockout, though – and true to form, he suffered a shoulder injury in January and missed 29 games, never emerging as more than a bit player for the Wings.
During the July compliance window, Detroit bought out the final year of Colaiacovo's deal.
As Armstrong mentioned, Colaiacovo comes in at the expense of Leopold. On Monday, St. Louis announced he would be out for a couple of months after undergoing surgery to repair ligament damage in his hand.
Leopold, 33, has two assists in 13 games while averaging 15:45 of ice time.
- hockeydon10 - Nov 14, 2013 at 10:52 AM
Even when he was on the ice for the Wings he was not good.
- jhaegs - Nov 14, 2013 at 2:15 PM
I didn't like his play in STL a couple years ago either. Real bad decision making on his pinches, which led to a lot of odd man rushes for the other team. He's a welcome addition compared to Ian Cole, though. It's a shame we don't have Russell anymore- I thought he was a good fit.
- stevedurbano - Nov 14, 2013 at 5:21 PM
The worst case scenario is that neither Cole or Colaiacavo is effective and Hitch overuses the top 4. You can't have them playing 25 minutes every game and expect it not to wear them down.

Ghana's mixed fortune as a dumping ground for e-waste
Return to Kuwait: The class of 1990
21 Feb 2013 02:54 GMT | Politics, Asia Pacific, Malaysia, Philippines
A standoff between the Malaysian army and a Filipino armed group that claims a part of Malaysia is moving into its second week.
The group of 100 armed men refuses to move from a village in Malaysia's eastern state of Sabah that they have occupied, despite pleas from both the Malaysian and Philippine governments to return to the Sulu archipelago on the Philippine side of the sea border.
On Wednesday, Jamalul Kiram III, a former sultan of Sulu and brother of the man Philippine provincial authorities regard as sultan, rejected a historic peace deal between the Philippines and Muslim rebels and said he would not ask his men to pull out from Sabah.
Security analysts had warned that the peace deal signed by the Philippine government and Muslim rebels last October to end 40 years of conflict in the Philippine south risked stirring instability by alienating powerful clan leaders.
'Sultanate ignored'
Jamalul said the peace deal had handed control of much of Sulu to Moro Islamic Liberation Front (MILF) rebels, ignoring the sultanate.
"I cannot understand what our government is doing. I cannot understand why, instead of siding with us because we are Filipinos, they are siding with the Malaysians," he said.
Jamalul said the group of sultan loyalists had gone to Malaysia as a protest action in response to what they saw as the unfair peace deal, and they would not back down, despite growing shortages in food and water from the week-long standoff.
"We will not budge, we will not leave. If we die, then we die," he said.
Malaysian police armed with machine guns have surrounded the village in a palm-oil plantation area.
Malaysian officials said over the weekend that the group's demands would not be met and that the men would be deported soon, without specifying how.
Jamalul said his followers were demanding recognition from Malaysia as the rightful owners of Sabah and renegotiation of the original terms of the lease with a British trading company.
In an arrangement that stretches back to British colonial times, Malaysia pays a token amount to the Sulu sultanate each year for the "rental" of Sabah.
Jamalul said the Sulu royal family had asked to take part in the peace negotiations because the old sultanate's territories would be part of a new autonomous Muslim area, but they were rebuffed by the Philippine government.
He said their group was open to negotiations with Malaysia to settle the standoff quickly.
