Pipe Christmas Ornament
Personalized Christmas Ornament
A wood smoking pipe was designed to be able to smoke tobacco and this beautiful Polish glass rendition is fun keepsake for someone who loves to puff on the pipe or who has been a tobacco pipe smoker all of his life. Most pipe tobacco is treated and blended with flavors and spices, unlike any other type of tobacco that is smoked in other mediums. Not usually inhaled, pipe smoke was puffed and swirled around in the nose and mouth. A practice that has been around since 500 B.C., smoking a pipe was considered the gentleman's smoking method. Personalize this pipe ornament for someone who still loves the taste of tobacco smoke in his pipe.
Material: Polish Glass

IO DONNA ITALY: ROBERT PATTINSON IS IN A MOVIE ABOUT JAMES DEAN, BUT HE ISN'T THE STAR: "IT'S BETTER THIS WAY"

"To set myself free from the Twilight saga, I agreed to be the co-star in Life", says the actor who plays the star's photographer who died 60 years ago.

"Twilight? I am proud to have been a part of it. I am no longer forced to pursue a job as I did before Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire. The fame sprung after that still puts me at ease, also on the economic side, to select only the projects I believe in. And Life is the proof of that."

Robert Pattinson is working very hard. He wants to distance himself from the role of the teen idol in a saga that he certainly appreciates, but which still weighs on his credibility as an actor.

More than in the sense of that answer, this impatience is perceived in the way he stresses the words. The voice tone is low, he looks down to take time and he looks for an answer not too trivial. Sure, his fake-scruffy look helps (beard and long hair, but not kept in a random way, there's too much gel and the sideburns are well cared), but he seems genuine, especially when he speaks about Life, his latest movie. Pattinson plays the photographer Dennis Stock during 1955, the time of his turbulent friendship with the star, the same one that gave him the opportunity to exclusively portray him in New York (remember the famous shot of the actor with the cigarette in the rain with Trafalgar Square on the background?) and in his childhood home in Indiana.

The movie is focused on the previous history of this collaboration and it's directed by the Dutchman Anton Corbijn , who is not just the director (his was the biopic of Ian Curtis, Control), but he is also an appreciated music stars' photographer since the seventies. James Dean instead is played by Dane DeHaan, one of the emerging names in Hollywood (he was Harry Osborn in the last Spider-Man), while the only relevant female character is Pier Angeli, an Italian actress of the fifties who was played here by Alessandra Mastronardi.

Q: What effect did it have on you to be the photographer and not the subject of the pictures for once?

"I realized how much it may be difficult to deal with a star. When you're on the red carpet you actually don't even see the photographers, you move doing some poses, often studied, but you can't see the faces, you only see the flashes. Of course, it wasn't easy for a photographer of that time, as well as certainly it isn't today. However, Dean was able to keep his private life enough hidden. It was a different era, but there wasn't less greed to know the intimate details of his daily life than nowadays."

Q: Idol of the young generation, beautiful, certainly not a "bad boy", but still quite with a dark charm: when you got the script, did you think you would be the right one for the role of James Dean?

"I think one might think of it, but it wouldn't be the right choice for both the good of the character as well as for me. They would start the comparisons, I would be accused of presumption and then, perhaps, I would not be able to give that little extra that instead DeHaan managed to do. From my point of view, been able to play Stock and his way of relating to someone so elusive, but in his way charming, magnetic, posed a challenge is even more exciting than to impersonate Dean."

 Q: At the time of that story Stock was 27, he was already a father and he had to struggle between work and family while pursuing his dream of becoming an accomplished photographer: you are almost the same age, 29, you are already famous and you don't have a family: it seems that there can't be a more distant character...

"At a first glance yes, but these aren't the characteristics which most define a person. Both the success and becoming a parent are variables that depend on you, or rather, not only on you. You need luck and find a person who, in addition to love, wants the same things that you want at the time you want them. Stock was like me in the determination to wanting to be an artist, and also in that bit of initial embarrassment that I often feel when I relate myself with someone for the first time."

 Q: Are you a shy person?

"No, but I need some time to open up to anyone."

Q: Even romantically?

"With anyone, even in love."

Q: Did you ever fear that the label "the one from that Twilight movie" could negatively affect your future in acting?

"The success of Twilight is something special that I will never regret. Since I started this career I am trying to improve myself, to challenge myself with different roles compared to those I have already interpreted. If in 10 years they will speak of me still just as "the one from Twilight", the blame will be mine alone."

"I had noticed that he took papers out of the ordinary (Bel Ami and Cosmopolis) wanting to see that it was a real actor; and good in his life he is chased by photographers, and now he must act as one,"

Excelsior

"Although many related and pigeonhole the name of Robert Pattinson in the Twilight series, there are others, such as Dutch director Anton Corbijn who see beyond the stigma and / or social labels.

So it is not unreasonable offer made British actor Dennis Stock's role, that famous photographer 50s that caught James Dean three months before his death in the film Life.

"After I felt Twilight Robert tried to choose characters away from this whole saga.

"He wants to prove to the world that is a real actor can do challenging roles and that reminded me of Dennis Stock, a photographer in his early wanted to check I was good at what he did. That part was something I found in common between the two.

On the other hand, Robert is always being chased by photographers and I liked the idea that the film had to act like a photographer behind a star, he said to questions expressed by Excelsior, Anton Corbijn.

The filmmaker, who likewise attended the Festival last year to promote The most wanted man, was forceful in ensuring that while speaking of James Dean Life is not a movie about him, but the man behind the lens that made him some emblematic images that turned it around the world.

"Whoever thinks that this film is about James, I'm afraid to say that is not so.

"In fact, when I was offered the script I did not care because I did not want to make a film about James Dean, however, when I began to see that the story was more about the photographer, I felt identified because basically that's what I've been doing since 40 years ago, "he said Corbijn."

El Universal

"For Robert Pattinson after Twilight had shown that he wanted to remove the image of easy film actor, he was chosen to star in Life , directed by Anton Corbijn.

On the tape plays professional photographer Dennis Stock, who came to have a friendly relationship with James Dean, legend of cinema. That closeness was born after the image Stock Dean took in 1955.

"I had noticed that he took papers out of the ordinary ( Bel Ami and Cosmopolis ) wanting to see that it was a real actor; and good in his life he is chased by photographers, and now he must act as one, "the director recalled yesterday. …"

am.com

 "Later, the filmmaker opened a a time for questions and answers …. About elect Pattison [sic] for the role of the photographer, he said he and Stock have some in common, at the time Stock sought the recognition, Same with Pattison [sic], who sought the chance to prove he's a serious actor despite recent films that launched him to fame. He said he was not interested in making a film about the life of James Dean, the script liked by character of the photographer and that is why in Friday night hundreds of people had the opportunity to see the film to be released in theaters later this year."

La Cronica

"The film, which was presented for the first time in February, within the framework of theBerlin International Film Festival, is an honest portrait of the friendship between the twocharacters which also highlights the performance of Pattinson, "I wanted to work with himbecause in his last films has shown that he is an actor capable of making a complex role beyondmovies like Twilight and has tried to prove that he has more talent and I think that thephotographer of the film is very similar, because you want to prove that it is capable of workingfor a major magazine", Corbijn explained

Rob interviewed Jamie Bell for the latest issue of Interview magazine. Here's the full article! It's a great and fun interview :)

When, at only 13, Jamie Bell leapt into the collective consciousness with his debut role in 2000's Billy Elliot, the young dancer from Northeast England had no idea what was to come. In the 15 years since, Bell has both grown up and quietly amassed a very mature body of work, partnering with some of the most inventive directors in the biz, from Steven Spielberg (The Adventures of Tintin, 2011) to Clint Eastwood (Flags of Our Fathers, 2006), and Peter Jackson (King Kong, 2005) to Cary Joji Fukunaga (Jane Eyre, 2011), among others.

Of late, Bell has gone bigger and bolder, playing a sooty rebel in Bong Joon-ho's 2013 postapocalyptic train thriller Snowpiercer and, that same year, doing dark comedy as a coke-y cop in Filth, adapted from the Irvine Welsh novel. Last year, Lars von Trier enlisted the actor to explore his dominant side as a sadist-for-hire opposite Charlotte Gainsbourg in Nymphomaniac: Volume II; and Bell has also dabbled in the prestige TV drama, with AMC's Revolutionary War espionage thriller Turn: Washington's Spies, which recently wrapped its second season.

This month, Bell, 29, is going full superhero, as the massive rock warrior Ben Grimm, a.k.a. Thing, in Josh Trank's update of Fantastic Four, with Miles Teller, Kate Mara, and Michael B. Jordan. But as he tells his buddy and fellow English expat, Robert Pattinson, connecting the dots in Bell's wide-strewn Hollywood career hasn't always been so clear.

JAMIE BELL: How's it going, mate?

ROBERT PATTINSON: I'm all right. I spent the day prepping for this interview.

BELL: I expect fucking Charlie Rose. [both laugh]

PATTINSON: Let's not talk about any of your work. Let's only talk about your personal life. Your crack usage. Who are you fucking? Okay? What's your earliest memory?

BELL: That's a good question. I don't have one. My memory is fucking vague from when I was a kid. I remember having a Batmobile. It was a replica from the Tim Burton movies, and it fired these yellow missiles. I remember there wasn't a lot of sun in northeastern England. So there was one day in history when apparently it was sunny, and my mom was outside on a deck chair or something like that. I remember firing the missile and it hitting her foot. That's as early as I can remember. I don't even know how old I was. After that, it was basically the ballet barre; everything else, I'm wearing tights. I remember playing around my grandma's house. My sister was always in dancing class and stuff, so I was dropped off with my grandma a lot, picking vegetables. My grandfather makes wine, so I tasted his wine occasionally when no one was looking.

PATTINSON: Were you performing? Were you a drama kid?

BELL: Once I started dancing, when I was 6, all that stuff opened itself up to me, I guess. I did take part in a lot of school plays. I did local pantomimes in Billingham and in Middlesbrough. To me, it was amazing. After that, I went to the National Youth Music Theatre. There's a song in Pinocchio [1940], "An Actor's Life for Me." I had no idea what the song meant; I just remember the melody of the song and thinking, "Oh, that's a fucking cool song. I don't know what an actor is." Then I figured out what an actor was. I was like, "Oh, wait! You get to be somebody else all the time." That was intriguing. But, yeah, I was a theater brat as a kid. I knew all the words to Les Mis and all that shit.

PATTINSON: Did Billy Elliot feel like a big movie when you were making it?

BELL: It did for me, because it was my first one. I had no reference. It was the circus that comes to town, a hundred crew members standing in the street, looking at you to do something. But I think for everyone else, for the producers and stuff, it was kind of a mini-movie that they didn't expect to do very much. Now that I think back on it, that was a really small movie—small crew, very contained. So what happened after was just crazy. It changed everything.

PATTINSON: When did you move to America?

BELL: I first started coming here around 17, 18. I made Billy Elliot, and then I had to finish school, and then everything was moving along so quickly that by the time I came back, everyone had completely forgotten what I'd done or who I was. Obviously, I'd changed as well. I wasn't 13 years old anymore. I was this adolescent, spotty kid, sitting in exec's offices. It was like, "Who the fuck is this kid?" [laughs] "Why is he in my office?"

PATTINSON: You were a child actor then, but you seemed to have an incredibly specific idea of what parts you wanted to do. Looking at the chronology of your movies afterwards, they're all very interesting parts. They're movies that I would be choosing to watch now, like Dear Wendy [2005]. What was your thought process in choosing parts after Billy Elliot?

BELL: I didn't have any thought process. I just had people, representation-wise, who just had better taste than I did. [laughs] I've had the same manager going on 16 years now. I've had the same agent going on 15 years. They've always had good taste, slightly left field, less mainstream, really into filmmakers, specifically. I was a kid. I didn't really know who Thomas Vinterberg was. I didn't know who Lars von Trier was. I didn't know anything about the Dogma 95 movement. All these new people that I'd been introduced to really opened up a wider version of what cinema was and is. In my mid- to late teens, while finishing school, I started watching all these movies and going, "Oh, wow." I got heavy into Terrence Malick and directors that moved a little slower and concentrated on different things. I think I have much more appreciation for directing and movies overall versus a performance or an actor. Their body of work is more interesting. It's hard to define somebody by one movie. I mean, unfortunately, my entire life was basically made by Billy Elliot. It was kind of created by that one catalytic moment.

PATTINSON: Do you see your body of work assembling itself when you look back at the movies you've done?

BELL: Not really. Someone described my movie career like a pinball machine. [both laugh] They were like, "Oh, you did Tintin. What do you do after that? You went for Nymphomaniac. That makes sense! You did work in an adaptation of an Irvine Welsh novel, fucking girls and doing blow." Trying to find continuity in it is tricky. Another actor pointed this out to me on a movie a few years ago. He said, "You're always playing orphans. I don't think I've ever seen you play a character where you have both of your parents." It's kind of true. I always read scripts, and it's like, "A character looks at a picture of his dead mom." I'm like, "Oh, dead mother—there you go!" I'm always kind of surprised that I managed to keep working as much as I have. But it's weird. It's an odd collection of work, isn't it?

PATTINSON: I don't know if I would say the orphan thing, but if I was to describe your spirit animal, it would be a very excitable lamb. [both laugh] Or a little baby goat. You're furiously beaten by the farmer, but just keep running back. To segue to Fantastic Four, the great thing about Thing is that you don't have to remember your character name or the name of the movie.

BELL: That's true. But, you know, he does have a name, Rob. His name is Ben Grimm. The other benefit is that you won't see my face at all.

PATTINSON: I won't see you?

BELL: Oh, no, you will. He's a human being before he turns into Thing. But there is certainly something about the anonymity of the character that is kind of intriguing. I like that. I think your anonymity has been somewhat jeopardized. [both laugh]

PATTINSON: But for any sequels, we're never going to see your face ever again?

BELL: There is potential. There's stuff in the comic books where Miles Teller's character, Reed Richards, develops technology where he can be changed back. My question, to filmmakers and to audiences around the world, is would they want that? It's unlikely. But it's possible.

PATTINSON: Do you even turn up on set? Is it totally animated?

BELL: Oh, no, I have to do it on set. We use performance capture, which is the same technology that Andy Serkis was a pioneer in the use of to create characters like Gollum, or Caesar from the Planet of the Apes movies or King Kong. I've worked with Andy a bunch since we did Tintin together, so I've seen how he's really harnessed this technology and used it to his advantage to create these lasting characters. I mean, I would consider Gollum to be a piece of cinematic history in popular culture, the same way Star Wars characters are. After my experience of seeing him work on Tintin and King Kong, I really saw how he could immerse himself in these characters. I was really excited by the idea of using the same technology and coming up with a character that could have a lasting impression, that an audience could connect with. I also think the idea of me playing that role, a six-foot-eight rock creature, was kind of bizarre. As you know, I'm a five-foot-seven, rather squat Englishman. All of that combined was kind of interesting.

PATTINSON: Do you have a job that you've been most proud of?

BELL: No. I don't really enjoy watching any of my work at all. It's useful, because you get to see what mistakes you think you made and what choices didn't quite work out the way you wanted them to. But at the same time, it's such an excruciating experience because it's final. You can't do anything about it. So the process of rewatching it becomes so pointless. To get me to sit down in a screening, you almost have to nail me to the fucking floor. I just never want to watch anything. I'm proud that I'm still working. But there's not one thing that I can put my finger on and say, "That is my greatest achievement. That's my proudest moment." That's so tricky to me.

PATTINSON: What job was the most satisfying to make?

BELL: I enjoyed my time when I worked with David Gordon Green [on Undertow, 2004]. It was satisfying because his approach to directing and with actors was so different from what I had been used to. The process of doing it was fun and experimental. And it was the first time I was playing an American. I had to do an accent to embody a character from the South. That was fun. That did feel fulfilling and satisfying. But, you know, that was fucking over ten years ago.

PATTINSON: And since then, zilch.

BELL: [laughs] I always enjoy myself! I work really fucking hard. Whenever I'm there on set, I always really try my best. I always put everything into it. I really enjoy the process. It's just that when it comes out, I'm always like, "Oh, God." I get so skeptical all of a sudden.

PATTINSON: What's the best piece of advice anyone's ever given you?

BELL: Probably always be yourself. I am quite unashamedly Jamie all the time. I think that definitely helped even in terms of sanity—not in terms of career, just in terms of keeping your head, especially when you start so young. I get asked a lot in interviews, you know, "How come you're not, like—"

PATTINSON: Crazy?

BELL: "In rehab or anything?" I probably should be. The pitfalls of child actors ... It was drilled into me when I was a kid: "You have to be you, and you must be the best version of yourself." I think a mantra I always told myself is, "No matter how many times somebody pitches the ball at you, if you swing every time, eventually one of them is going to connect." Being yourself and persistence are two things that became my daily mantras, I suppose.

PATTINSON: Why do you think you're not crazy? [both laugh] I mean, you are a little. It's a strange trait for actors not to have, but most of them don't have a lot of humility. I find that you're one of the most humble people I've ever met. It's unusual.

BELL: I don't know. I think my demons are my demons, and we all have them, and we work on them. But, I'm always impressed with people. I'm always impressed that other people are not as crazy as I would expect them to be, or more grounded, or more human than I anticipated. I'm constantly surprised by people. When you see people who could so easily be a dick or full of themselves or not giving of their time or their attention or whatever, I'm always reminded to be humble and have humility. Because it's a great trait. It reminds me that I need to do the same.

PATTINSON: The lost humble orphan lamb: Jamie Bell.

A new project for Rob! He will star in Good Time, as announced by The Hollywood Reporter and confirmed by the film's directors earlier today.

From The Hollywood Reporter

Robert Pattinson will star in the neo-grindhouse caper Good Time, which will be directed by Josh and Benny Safdie.

The indie film centers on a bank robber's flailing efforts to evade the dragnet closing in on him. Pattinson will star as Connie.

Josh Safdie and Ronald Bronstein wrote the script for the film, which will be produced by Sebastian Bear-MCclard of Elara Pictures.

The Safdie brothers, who recently signed with WME, are indie filmmakers whose most recent project, Heaven Knows What, is in theaters. The critically acclaimed film following a young heroin addict (Arielle Holmes) who finds love in the streets of New York was released by Radius-TWC. It won the C.I.C.A.E Award at the Venice Film Festival and also played at the Toronto Film Festival and New York Film Festival.

The directing team's indie projects include Daddy Longlegs, which played at the 2009 Cannes Film Festival and the 2010 Sundance Film Festival; the doc Lenny Cook, which followed a star high school basketball player and played at Tribeca and Venice before airing on Showtime in February 2014; and their debut feature, The Pleasure of Being Robbed, which premiered at SXSW in 2008 and also played at the Cannes sidebar Directors' Fortnight before airing on IFC.

Since starring in the vampire franchise phenomenon known as Twilight, Pattinson has focused his efforts on interesting indie roles. He has worked with esteemed directors including David Michod (The Rover), David Cronenberg (Cosmopolis, Maps to the Stars) and Werner Herzog (Queen of the Desert). His upcoming films include The Childhood of a Leader and The Lost City of Z with Sienna Miller and Charlie Hunnam. He's repped by WME and 3 Arts.

More details about Rob's character from The Wrap

Pattinson will play a bankrobber named Connie who is trying to evade the police as they close in on him. Sebastian Bear-McClard of Elara Pictures is producing, while Josh Safdie and Ronald Bronstein wrote the script.

And from The Playlist

No word on when it might shoot, but presumably it'll have to wait until Pattinson has wrapped James Gray's "Lost City Of Z" which starts shooting later this year.

And from the directors

Excited to announce a project we've been working on and very excited to make with the untamable Robert Pattinson. http://t.co/FBskUFsI1F

CONMEBOL outlines reforms after scandal
ASUNCION, Paraguay (AP) The CONMEBOL soccer body will begin publishing the salary of its president and executive council members after being plunged into crisis by the FIFA bribery scandal.
The South American governing body published the anti-corruption measures Wednesday. They also include the creation of a new post for an independent expert overseeing its implementation.
CONMEBOL also wants to run background checks on potential commercial partners, and improve the drafting of contracts so they can include anti-corruption clauses. Annual audit reports will also be published on CONMEBOL'S site.

Face powder can make skin look flat and dry, which can, in turn, make you look older. This doesn't mean to say you need to stop using it as you age. Because looking shiny is just as unappealing.
You just need to know how to apply it. The key is using a small blusher brush, as opposed to using a large powder one, because it's easier to control where the product ends up. Dust over the oily T-zone and avoid the eyes and forehead, as powder will only sit in any creases you have.

NZ Festival
Five by Five - Concert Four: New Zealand Symphony Orchestra
Conducted by Marc Taddei. Sibelius: Karelia Suite, Symphony No 5
Michael Fowler Centre, March 10
In the three concerts in this series up till now I have been impressed by both conductors and the quality of the NZSO's playing, early in their year. But this concert was undoubtedly the finest yet.
Sibelius' Fifth Symphony went through a large number of revisions before Sibelius was satisfied, and those who have heard the fascinating BIS recording, in which both an earlier and the final version is played, will understand just what Sibelius was about.
Not every conductor does, but here Taddei nailed the work by catching its essence with superb tempos, scrupulous balances and a dynamic grasp of each of the three movements. After a beautifully judged opening, the drama of the first movement is maintained - the second movement, distinguished by some wonderfully sure string playing.
The third movement moved inexorably towards its dramatic six sharp chord conclusion with the drama enhanced with real skill and superb balances between the brass and the rest of the orchestra.
The Karelia Suite opened the concert, and right from the quickish tempo for the immensely popular Intermezzo, Taddei established his Sibelian credentials, something he maintained in both the Ballade and the final Alla Marcia. Superb playing once again, and together the two works thrilled a very sizeable audience.

Interschalt's Maritime Education and Training (MET) Center has added new dates for Ship Security Officer (SSO) courses to its training program. The courses are aimed at nautical officers, captains, marine engineers, security staff and shore-based shipping sector staff as well as port authority staff.
During the two-day course, participants receive training on the content of the ISPS Code and are entitled to assign individual responsibilities or the entire SSO position to someone else. As well as covering the requirements of the ISPS Code, the course is also based on the decisions of STW 34/WP.4 (Annex 3). Rule VI/5 of the annex to the STCW (Convention valid until June 30, 2016) forms the basis for Interschalt's hazard prevention (SSO) training offer.
"The course, which focuses on security, is not only designed to improve ship crews' level of training but also, for example, to provide security training for shipping companies' office staff. Participants learn everything that they need to know about identifying and preventing hazards", says MET Leader Axel Schult. The next training sessions will take place on August 28 and 29 as well as October 23 and 24, 2013 at Interschalt's MET Center in Schenefeld near Hamburg. The participation fee for the two-day course is €680 plus €12 each day for food (both plus VAT).

The UFC on Fuel TV 9 main event took a major hit when the Swedish MMA Federation wouldn't allow Alexander Gustafsson to fight due to a cut above his eye that he suffered in training. Little did any of us know, however, that the entire main event came perilously close to being scrapped.
Gegard Mousasi – who was originally slated to face Gustafsson, but ended up fighting his training partner, Ilir Latifi – mentioned offhandedly in his post-fight comments that he was injured coming into Saturday's bout in Stockholm.
UFC president Dana White at the post-fight press conference didn't detail the injury, but revealed that it was severe enough to require surgery.
"Mousasi, he had knee problems all through his camp," said White, before adding, "He checked with his doctor, and his doctor said you can make it through this fight and then you're gonna have to have surgery after the fight."
Mousasi immediately received waves of criticism for his approach to the fight, which consisted of fighting a technical stand-up game, keeping his distance from Latifi and not allowing the Swedish national wrestling champion to close the distance and take him to the mat.
White, who rarely shies away from criticizing a fighter for lack of engagement, had nothing but praise for Mousasi, especially considering the circumstances.
"Kid wants to fight cuz he's gonna come here and fight the No. 3 ranked light heavyweight in the world," explained White. "(Mousasi) doesn't want to give up this opportunity; he wants to fight (Gustafsson). Shows up here to fight him; gets stopped on a cut.
"He's training for this tall striker, ends up fighting a short, strong, southpaw wrestler, and still accepts the fight and takes it. So, again, much respect to the guys in the main event."
Mousasi refrained from giving any details or a timetable for recovery from his injury, but did wear his decision to stay in the fight as a badge of honor.
"I don't want to talk a lot about my injury, but I can tell, from this injury, 95-percent (of other fighters) wouldn't fight. I stepped up; I didn't cancel the show. I don't want to say anything yet, but it's nothing small."

UK's criminal justice system bias against Asian, Black youths
London: Britain's Equality and Human Rights Commission (EHRC) has found that Asian and Black teenagers accused of crime in Britain face discrimination under the country's criminal justice system.
A comprehensive study of youth justice, the EHRC's report said: "Differences in the treatment between black and mixed-race youths and white youths could not be accounted for by the severity of the crimes or defendants` criminal history, indicating that discrimination may be taking place."
The researchers found that the disproportionate use of "stop and search" powers by police still provided grounds for allegations of racism.
"Adversarial police tactics are damaging community relations, which can only be counterproductive to reducing youth crime," The Independent quoted the report, as saying.
It also said that once facing court, the Asian and black youths are three times more likely to be denied bail than their white counterparts.
However, when the case reached court, black youths were one and a half times more likely to have their cases dismissed or withdrawn, compared to white defendants.
In a separate report, the ECHR urged for a review of the stop and search powers across the UK.
"The evidence suggests that some forces are exercising their powers not on the basis of intelligence or reasonable suspicion but on stereotypical assumptions, which is not helping to make society safer," the study concluded.

Planning Board contends Weirs Blvd. has transitioned to a residential area & should be zoned that way
LACONIA — The recommendation to rezone about 2 1/2 miles of Weirs Boulevard from the Commercial Resort (CR) district to the Shorefront Residential (SFR) district has rankled a number of Weirs business owners, who will urge the City Council to ask the Planning Board to reconsider the proposal.
The proposal, prepared by the Zoning Task Force and endorsed by the Planning Board, will be presented to the City Council when it meets on Monday, May 11 at 7 p.m.
Attorney Paul Fitzgerald yesterday confirmed that he represents the Naswa Resort and will address the City Council on behalf of the Makris family, who he said are "seriously concerned about the impacts of creating a predominantly residential zone compared to what has been allowed and encourage up and down the boulevard in the past. " He said that the owners of other business entities share these concerns and he expected they would express them to the council..
Fitzgerald said that the rezoning, along with several changes in the uses permitted in the CR zone, appear "at variance with discussions with property owners at the Weirs during the past 20 years in so far as they are more, not less, restrictive."
The proposal would designate the length of Weirs Boulevard from just south of the Naswa to the junction with White Oaks Road, which is currently in the CR district, as SFR. The change would alter the mix of permitted and prohibited uses significantly.
Properties sharing residential and commercial uses, which are permitted in the CR zone would not be permitted in the SFR zone. Likewise, a number of commercial uses permitted in the CR district — restaurants, flea markets, retail outlets, sexually oriented businesses, shopping centers, appliance repair, banks, laundromats, personal services, professional offices — would also be prohibited. Entertainment and recreational uses permitted in the CR district — arcades, amusement parks, art centers, movie theaters and nightclubs — would not be permitted in the SFR district. Car washes, taxi services, auto dealerships and fueling station, permitted in the CR district, would be prohibited in the SFR district.
However, hotels, motels and inns as well as neighborhood stores are permitted in both the CR and SFR zones.
Don Richards, a resident of the Weirs and longtime member of the Planning Board, said the proposal recognizes that Weirs Boulevard has become a predominantly residential neighborhood and future development is likely to increase the number of residential units. He noted that Brady Sullivan seeks to build some 300 residential units at Langley Cove while "no new commercial projects are planned on the boulevard".
The owners of these residential units, Richards described as seasonal and weekend residents, who "pay heavy taxes, use few services, have few if any children in the schools. " He said because they are occasional residents "they don't have a voice here. They want to sleep when they want to sleep," he continued. "And they don't want loud outdoor music screaming at them when they're trying to sleep."
Richards was echoed by Warren Hutchins, the chairman of the Planning Board, who also lives at the Weirs. The proposal, he said, "recognizes what has taken place and reflects what it is. You have to respect that Weirs Boulevard is a residential zone and one of the most scenic roads in the city." Hutchins described the proposal as "a very pro-property owner change" that provide predictability to owners of residential units.
There are 10 businesses operating now or opening soon in the affected area of the boulevard: four motels, two restaurants, an ice cream shop, security firm, insurance agency and real estate office. Richards stressed that the existing businesses would be "grandfathered" and insisted that the proposed change "does not effect anybody on Weirs Boulevard in business who wants to stay in the business they're in. Nobody should have an issue."
However, Fitzgerald suggested that because a variance or special exception would be required to change the existing use of a commercial property, the encumbrance could impair its value.
John Ganong, who has operated several businesses on the boulevard over the years, declined to comment on the merits of the proposal, but said "my concern is the people who don't know what is going on. There are people returning from Florida," he continued, "who will ask 'what's going on here?' They should have been notified as property owners and property taxpayers."

Lakeside condo owners don't want 'commercial' zone
LACONIA — "It's the unknown that concerns us," said Fred Clausen, one of 22 homeowners at Eastern Shore Condominiums on Lake Street, at the foot of Weirs Boulevard, whose properties the Planning Board recommends rezoning from Commercial Resort to Commercial.
Altogether the proposal would rezone a dozen acres fronting Paugus Bay which house the Margate Resort, Eastern Shores Condominiums, two single-family homes and Lake Street Home Services.
The City Council will hold a public hearing on the issue — as well as on other Weirs-related zoning matters (see related stories in this issue) — shortly after 7 p.m. on Monday, May 11.
The proposal is the residue of the recommendation to remove the eastern shore of Paugus Bay along Weirs Boulevard south of the Naswa Resort from the Commercial Resort district and designate it Shorefront Residential. Planning Director Shanna Saunders said that rather than leave the small enclave in the Commercial Resort district, isolated from the the remainder of the district at the center of The Weirs, the decision was made to attach it to the Commercial district that extends along Union Avenue.
Clausen said that property owners were not notified of the proposal and only learned of it shortly before the Zoning Task Force presented its recommendations to the Planning Board. Several property owners at Eastern Shores Condominiums, including Clausen, expressed misgivings to the Planning Board and Saunders said other have raised questions directly with the Planning Department.
Although commercial uses are permitted in the Commercial Resort district, virtually all are associated with hospitality and recreation and compatible with waterfront property. Rezoning the properties would extend the number of permissible commercial uses to include vehicle sales, rentals and servicing, dry cleaning, fuel storage, packaging and processing, product assembly, warehousing and funeral services.
Noting that a number of commercial uses would be unsuited to the waterfront lots Clausen questioned the purpose of changing the zoning. In light of the Comprehensive Shoreland Protection Act, he asked "what could be built there?"
Saunders insisted that the site is suited to commercial uses, particularly since the opposite side of Lake Street, which lies in Gilford, is lined with businesses. She described the site as an extension the commercial district, consisting of lots fronting on to Union Avenue and backing on to Paugus Bay.

70 residents answer call to discuss & debate future of Belmont Mill
BELMONT — Some new faces joined with some familiar ones Monday night for a facilitated discussion about the future of the Belmont Mill. About 70 people attended the meeting at the High School.
The facilitator, Michael Castagna, was involved in both planning charrettes for the first renovation of the mill in the 1990s and the village redesign that was completed last year. He was paid by the town for his services.
While every participant had something a little different to say, the overall trends could be broken down into two categories, those, representing a minority and identifying themselves primarily as new to Belmont, who wanted to tear down the mill and those, who were in the majority, who wanted to save it.
"It's a health hazard," said one man named Joe who suggested giving it to the Fire Department and letting them "burn it to the ground."
"The mill is the gem of Belmont Village," countered Donna Hepp, a vocal proponent of saving it but an equally vocal opponent of converting in to town offices in one fell swoop. She thinks the restoration could be done over phases, an idea many liked.
What nobody can agree on is exactly what to do with the building, when it should be done, and how much should be spent to do it.
The discussion was prompted by the nearly 4-to-1 defeat of a warrant article that proposed spending $3.4-million, with 2.9-million to be borrowed, for the restoration of the mill and its conversion to town offices.
Few in the crowd Monday supported that option, though a number of people thought that the Department of Recreation could expand some of its activities to additional space in the mill.
One new idea that came to the fore was the possibility of a public-private partnership with many suggesting LRGHealthcare of Laconia as the likely partner.
The third floor is entirely occupied by the hospital company-owned Belknap Family Health Care which, according to statements made by unsubstantiated sources, wants to stay in Belmont but is looking for additional space.
Town Administrator Jeanne Beaudin acknowledged at selectman's meeting earlier this spring that there have been very informal and non-committal discussions between her and LRGHealthcare. At the time, a spokeswoman from the hospital declined to confirm them saying only that it was looking at a number of options for Belknap Family Health Care.
All agreed Monday night that it would be sad if the doctor's offices left Belmont Village.
Although the mill was supposed to be the only topic, many saw the discussion as a way to talk about all of the town buildings in the immediate village area, including the former Northway Bank and the current town hall.
Current town hall, according to many town employees, has its challenges, including a partial dirt cellar, its small size, and an second floor that is unusable because of a lack of elevator required by the Americans With Disabilities Act.
Many of those who spoke were under the impression the bank was purchased for town offices although history, including prior news articles and selectmen minutes, indicated the town wanted it because it felt it was a key piece of property located in an important section of town.
Former Selectmen Donna Cilley pointed out that there never was any intent to move the town offices there because it is too small.
Others pointed out that although the fourth floor of the mill is unusable, the remainder of the building is structurally sound, though the "envelope" or the exterior needs some brick work.
Castagna drew the conclusion that people didn't have enough information when they went to the polls in March and defeated the article converting the mill to town offices.
Castagna plans on returning with some conclusions, however what Selectman Jon Pike said he's like to see is more townspeople being involved during the next round of planning so there is some consensus and more widely known and understood plans before voters go to the polls the next time.
