Case filed against unknown persons in train collision incident
Mathura: Police on Wednesday registered a case against "unknown persons" after it emerged that the Mewar Express had come to a sudden halt because the emergency chain was pulled, after which another train rammed into it, killing 22 people.
The case has been registered under sections 223 (escape from confinement negligently suffered by a public servant) and 224 (resistance or obstruction by a person to his lawful
apprehension) of the IPC, SSP (Mathura) B D Paulson told reporters.
Additional Superintendent of Police Kota, Bhupendra Sahu, refused to comment on whether an escape attempt by a criminal on the train led to the accident but added, "All the three officials involved in the incident have been suspended and an inquiry has been ordered."
The office of Senior Superintendent of Police, Mathura City, had earlier said it has received two separate complaints -- one relating to the train accident and the other being that of an accused escaping from custody of Rajasthan policemen.
It is alleged that Munna Sazid, an accused in a robbery case, was being taken from Kota in Rajasthan to the national capital in Delhi-bound Mewar Express for a hearing in the Tees Hazari court.
He was being accompanied by three police constables of Rajasthan Police -- Ashok Kumar, Veerendra and Bahadur. At the Mathura station, Sazid asked for permission to go to toilet.
As soon as the train started gaining speed, he pushed one of the constables and jumped from the train prompting the police officials to pull the chain to bring it to halt,
according to the complaint.

Strike nearer at Barclays
Sunday 14 May 1995
The Banking, Insurance and Finance Union (Bifu) made the decision in the wake of the strike vote last week by UNiFI, the Barclays staff association, which is planning the first walk-out in its 80-year history.
The 54,000 Barclays staff are fighting to persuade the bank to lift its 2.75 per cent pay offer.
Rob MacGregor, assistant secretary of the TUC-affiliated Bifu, said his organisation had decided to test members' opinion because "any bank which makes a profit of £1.86bn can afford a pay rise that beats inflation". The present inflation rate stands at 3.3 per cent.
Mr MacGregor said staff at Barclays, under chief executive Martin Taylor, had been forced to put up with salary increases below the inflation rate for the last four years. "The feedback from our members is that they want to take a firm stand on pay this year."
In a turnout of 27.4 per cent, around 60 per cent of members of UNiFI voted to strike, and leaders of their rival union yesterday registered their confidence that their 8,000 members at Barclays would also vote for industrial action.
A spokeswoman for Barclays pointed out that performance-related payments would take the proposed pay increase to 5 per cent on average. There was also an average £1,000 lump sum payment at the end of March as part of a profit-sharing scheme, and this was topped up by an annual pre-Christmas bonus of 2.5 per cent.
Iain MacLean, assistant general secretary of UNiFI, said he had approached management in an attempt to negotiate a new pay deal but had been rebuffed. His union is claiming a 5 per cent increase on basic salaries or £600, whichever is greater.
The strike vote by members of UNiFI is a sign of growing anger among members of previously moderate organisations in the banking industry, which have seen the value of salaries eroded and thousands of jobs lost.

Episode List
5 Jan. 1969The Exchange
The episode opens with a mission already underway in a foreign country. But an unforeseeable accident causes Cinnamon Carter to be captured by the foreign government just as she completes the original mission successfully. With time running out as she's being interrogated by her captors, the rest of the IMF hatches a desperate plan to regain her freedom: break the other country's top spy out of prison in the West, try to trick him out of the information he's holding, and then offer to exchange him for Cinnamon.
12 Jan. 1969The Mind of Stefan Miklos
Walter Townsend, an enemy agent working in the U.S., has been allowed to obtain false information that, if believed by his home country, will cause its leaders grave embarrassment (and discredit Townsend). But another spy from Townsend's home country also working in the U.S., George Simpson, tells his superiors that the information supplied to Townsend is false. Because Simpson and Townsend are known to be rivals, their home country sends its most brilliant agent, Stefan Miklos, to determine the truth or falsity of the information Townsend supplied. The IMF's job is ...
19 Jan. 1969The Test Case
Rollin takes the place of a human test subject for a type of meningitis being developed into a weapon. Cinnamon approaches Dr. Beck, the mercenary scientist in charge of the project, with a better offer if he'll work for her.

16 Feb. 1969Doomsday
Industrialist Carl Vandaam claims to have a hydrogen bomb for sale. He invites representatives from a variety of countries and factions to participate in an auction for the device at his company's headquarters. As the bargaining goes on, Barney performs one of his tunnel-crawling assignments, climbing up and down an elevator shaft and then through some lateral access-points to get access to the room where the bomb is housed -- hoping to substitute a dummy unit for a critical part of the bomb's hardware before the sale to an enemy power is completed.
23 Feb. 1969Live Bait

In the first of two parts, Dr. Erich Rojak, a brilliant scientist, is being held in an underground bunker containing a laboratory where he is forced to work on a small but extremely powerful long-range missile. If he succeeds, the missile has the potential to change the balance of power between the East and the West. Rojak is cooperating only because his totalitarian government is holding his wife, Anna, and threatens to kill her unless he completes the missile. The IMF's assignment is to rescue Rojak and his wife and to destroy his missile research. But another ...
9 Mar. 1969The Bunker: Part 2
In the conclusion of the two-part episode, Jim Phelps has taken a position as a security officer at the underground bunker where Dr. Erich Rojak is working on a long-range missile that may change the balance of world power. Unbeknown to the IMF, however, Alexander Ventlos, a professional killer sent by another unfriendly government to kill Dr. Rojak, has already used his disguise talents to infiltrate the bunker. In the meantime, hoping to free Rojak's wife Anna, the IMF has managed to plant Cinnamon Carter in a holding cell near Anna, while Phelps uses a miniature ...
23 Mar. 1969Nitro
General Zek, a military officer of a Middle Eastern kingdom, bitterly opposes the peace treaty signed by the progressive young king of his nation and a neighboring republic. Zek conspires with a munitions maker to use nitroglycerin to blow up the kingdom's Government House, thereby eliminating the peace-minded king and also provoking war with the republic. The IMF's mission: prevent this terrorist plot, and do so in a way that will ensure General Zek never again threatens the peace.

But the complicated plan goes awry and the episode ends with Phelps under fire by guards.

Meanwhile, Turek continues to make progress in perfecting his mind-controlling drug.

*Najee Ali's career began in 1988 as a volunteer for presidential candidate Reverend Jesse Jackson, which was the doorway for his involvement into political and social activism.
He has worked for or with nationally celebrated figures that include President Barack Obama, Reverend Al Sharpton, Martin Luther King III, Dick Gregory, John Hope Bryant, Michael Jackson, Congress member Karen Bass and Imam W.D. Mohammed.
A native of Gary, Indiana, Najee migrated to South Central Los Angeles where later his fearless activism helped spearhead Sherrice's Law – the first law named after a slain African-American child in the United States. From leading the charge for police reform to negotiating gang truces, Ali continues to evolve as the people's champion and confronts injustice wherever it may be.
When one raises their voice on behalf of the voiceless, the discarded, abused, and oppressed, they may indeed catch 'hell' from those in power who would cruelly prefer them to remain mute, unheard, and battered.
In a story entailing his own abuse suffered in childhood and adolescence, to gang life in South Central LA., his experience through the LA civil unrest from the Rodney King verdict, his incarceration – to his life-changing acceptance of Islam, Najee Ali's story is one of redemption, whose past shaped him for the journey of representing the underdog.
Raising Hell entails 18 behind-the-scenes accounts of his activist involvement, such as the Presidential campaign run of Reverend Jesse Jackson in 1988, and a glimpse of then unknown Barack Obama during his Senate and Presidential campaigns, protests against gangsta Rap music's destructive messages, and the fight against police brutality and racial profiling in Southern California.
Raising Hell is a compelling story of a raw and fearless activist who holds to his truth: "I'm for truth, no matter who tells it. I'm for justice, no matter who it is for or against. I'm a human being, first and foremost, and as such I'm for whoever and whatever benefits humanity as a whole." (Malcolm X)
Through faith-guided and unrelenting activism, Ali managed to accomplish what many seasoned "leaders" only dreamed. Along Ali's life journey, he has intertwined with entertainment icons such as Michael Jackson, Steve Harvey, civil and social justice activists Dick Gregory, Martin Luther King III, Rev. Al Sharpton, business leaders Magic Johnson, John "Hope" Bryant, Cathy Hughes, Journalists Roland Martin and Tavis Smiley.
Raising Hell takes readers on an inspiring journey of redemption, change, and hope with Ali unwittingly thrust into multiple worlds – where fiery men and stone hearts collide.
About the Author:
Najee Ali is an award-winning nationally celebrated civil rights activist and community organizer who is the Founder and Executive Director of Project Islamic H.O.P.E. (Helping Oppressed People Everywhere), which puts faith into action to serve all of humanity.

Ghana's mixed fortune as a dumping ground for e-waste
Who is to blame for the rise of ISIL?
06 Jul 2011 10:30 GMT | Sport, US Sports, US & Canada, United States
Roger Clemens, one of the most imposing and accomplished pitchers in baseball history, will go on trial on Wednesday to fight allegations that he used drugs to enhance his power on the mound.
Like other players who have been indicted in Major League Baseball's steroids era, the former Boston Red Sox and New York Yankees player has not been charged with drug crimes but instead is accused of lying about drug use.
Clemens told a congressional committee under oath in 2008 that he never used performance-enhancing drugs during a standout 23-season career, in which he won a record seven Cy Young Awards as his league's top pitcher.
He is charged with six felony counts, including perjury, false statements and obstruction of Congress, which carry a maximum sentence of up to 30 years in prison and a $1.5 million fine.
But even if jurors convict him on all counts, it's unlikely Clemens would serve nearly that long because he doesn't have a criminal record.
Clemens was drafted by the Red Sox in 1984, spending 12 years in Massachusetts before joining the Toronto Blue Jays.
World Series winner
The 11-time All-Star then had two spells with the Yankees either side of a contract with the Houston Astros, retiring in 2007. He won the World Series twice with the Yankees, in 1999 and 2000.
The case will pit him against his former trainer, Brian McNamee, whom says he injected Clemens with steroids and human growth hormone several times during the decade that he helped shape him into one of the most feared pitchers in the major leagues.
Clemens' attorneys say McNamee is a serial liar who made up the allegations against his star client to save himself from joblessness and prosecution on drug charges.
The former star's lawyers will try to discredit McNamee, an ex-New York City police officer, by pointing out a series of lies the trainer told in the past.
They also want to introduce allegations that he drugged and raped an unconscious woman in a Florida hotel pool while travelling with the New York Yankees in 2001.
The judge will have to decide whether to let that allegation in, considering that McNamee was never charged with a crime.
Prosecutors want to back up McNamee's allegations against Clemens through testimony from his former Yankee teammates Andy Pettitte, Chuck Knoblauch and Mike Stanton.
All three admit they got performance drugs from McNamee, but Walton says he probably won't let them tell jurors about it because it could cause them to unfairly assume that Clemens must have as well.
Pettitte is an important witness because he's the only person besides McNamee who says Clemens admitted taking performance-enhancing drugs.
He has said Clemens told him privately in 1999 or 2000 that he took injections of human growth hormone, but Clemens says his old friend misheard him.
The federal court trial of US vs William R Clemens begins on Wednesday by narrowing a pool of 125 Washington DC residents to a panel of 12 jurors and four alternates.
The first 50 prospective jurors are to appear on Wednesday, and US District Judge Reggie Walton hopes to have the panel selected by early next week.
The trial is expected to last four to six weeks.
Walton plans to ask potential panellists to answer 67 questions about their background, opinions and knowledge of the case.
Both sides sought a written questionnaire, but Walton said that's not his practice because it "disadvantages less-educated people."
He said he would give attorneys wide latitude to ask follow-up questions.

On July 25, 2005, the CyberTipline received a report from a major commercial Internet Service Provider (ISP) regarding a subscriber who allegedly sent a pornographic image of a child via email. In compliance with federal law, the ISP provided the CyberTipline with the incident information, including the allegedly illegal image.
An Exploited Child Unit (ECU) Analyst viewed the uploaded file and observed what appeared to be a pornographic image depicting a prepubescent female. Included in the CyberTipline report was the email address of the person who sent the file, as well as the zip code linked to the reported target's billing information.
After very thorough searches on this information, the zip code was determined to be associated with Palm City, Florida. The ECU analyst contacted the Martin County Sheriff's Office and detectives coordinated with the Broward County Sheriff's Office, an OJJDP-funded Internet Crimes Against Children Task Force, to obtain the image.
On July 27, 2005, not even 50 hours after receiving the initial CyberTipline report, the Martin County Sheriff's Office executed a search warrant at the suspect's residence. A plethora of potential evidence was seized, including, but not limited to, floppy disks, tapes, cameras, and a camcorder. The suspect was arrested on the July 28 and confessed to downloading and sending child pornography.
The 43-year-old suspect was charged with one count of possessing child pornography and is currently being held on $850,000 bond. Additional charges will be added after completion of the evidence review.

Danish manufacturer DPA Microphones has upgraded its in-house studio with a Pyramix Virtual Studio digital audio workstation and three Digital Audio Denmark/Merging Sphynx 2 eight-channel audio converter systems. DPA prides itself on maintaining a state-of-the-art facility, enabling the company to test its mics under the most exacting acoustic conditions. The studio is also increasingly in demand as a commercial facility, carving out a niche for piano overdubs courtesy of DPA's Bösendorfer grand piano.
The upgrade to the Pyramix/DAD setup allows DPA product specialist Mikkel Nymand to make 24-channel test recordings in the DXD (Digital Extreme Definition) format, which produces a resolution 8X better than CD quality. The rig has been mounted in a wheeled rack, allowing easy transportation for location recording.
"Pyramix is the one of the only workstations available that enables recording and editing in DXD, allowing us to hear the differences in our microphones so much better," Nymand said. "The DAD AX24/Merging Sphynx 2s are front-end devices importing the mic signal directly into the Pyramix via MADI. This combined technology has allowed us to get much closer to the analog source, so we can really hear what the mics are picking up."
DPA is currently working on an SACD project of grand piano recordings using different combinations of DPA mics, as well as a demo DVD of surround recordings made in various performance spaces and cathedrals, also for demo purposes.

Stephen Harper feels Habs magic
Prime Minister Stephen Harper's not picking favourites but concedes that the Montreal Canadiens' playoff season has the magical feel of their 1971 run to the Cup.
|Report an Error
Share via Email
ZAGREB, CROATIA – Prime Minister Stephen Harper's not picking favourites but concedes that the Montreal Canadiens' playoff season has the magical feel of their 1971 run to the Cup.
"I just want to see us win a Stanley Cup. It's been a long time. I'm cheering for both Montreal and Vancouver and I want to see them both go forward," he said.
"Montreal, I think it's just a fantastic story so far. I actually haven't seen anything like this since 1971 when my friend Ken Dryden single-handedly won the Stanley Cup," Harper said during a stop here.
"That's what Halak is doing for the Canadiens. We'll see if he can continue it," he said, referring to Montreal goalie Jaroslav Halak, who has had some stellar games. "It's a very exciting story."
Montreal surprised many with its playoff series victory over top-ranked Washington Capitals to advance to the second run. They're now playing Stanley Cup champions Pittsburgh Penguins with the series tied at two games apiece.
"I have no problem cheering for the Canadiens when the time comes. I grew up as a Toronto Maple Leafs fan, which means that I only had Montreal to cheer for in the playoffs," he said to laughter at his news conference.
Those playoff dreams were on full display as Harper arrived at Government House here for a meeting with the Croatian Prime Minister.
Standing out from the crowd of local residents were Gordy Samija and Dennis Rukavina, two Croat-Canadians, sporting bright red Montreal Canadiens jerseys.
The two caught Harper's eye as his motorcade pulled into the square. After his meeting, he went out to greet the two men and have his picture taken with them.
"He was probably hoping for some (Calgary) Flames' jerseys. Unfortunately we have to surprise him with Canadiens jerseys," joked Samija, making reference to Harper's hometown.
Harper said it just shows that Montreal Canadiens' fans "take their loyalty everywhere."

"I don't get no respect. Not from the media. Not from the front office. What I do is never the right thing. It's always hiding, for somebody to find out."
- David Ortiz
I sometimes wonder if David Ortiz is legitimately delusional.
Forget the game-winners in the 2004 ALCS, forget the 54 homers in 2006, forget, even, the barrage of blasts over the past couple of years during a curious late-career resurgence that has seen the 36-year-old reemerge as one of the handful of best power hitters in baseball.
None qualify as David Ortiz's greatest hit.
That has always been the no respect card. He's played it time and time again over his career with the Sox and broke it out for another spin on Monday night.
Ortiz was asked after Monday's 8-6 win over the Orioles - a win that saw the Sox get to .500 and also included a titanic Ortiz homer off of Tommy Hunter in the sixth inning, his 10th of the season - about the perception of lack of leadership on this team. Ortiz, you remember, called a players-only meeting on May 11 that reportedly included hitters challenging pitchers to step up.
The Sox have won nine of 11 games since the meeting and it sure seems that Ortiz would like a couple of attaboys for showing a little initative.
"Well, let me tell you, I was reading an article [that] talked about the leaders people call 'leaders' in this town," Ortiz told ESPNBoston.com. "Basically, it seems like no matter what you do, it's not good enough. … And you can only call leaders the guys who are out diving for balls on the field or calling pitches behind the plate?"
So Ortiz wants us to look at him as a leader of this team, just as many did with Jason Varitek and do now with Dustin Pedroia (and it's pretty obvious those were the "guys" he was referring to in the previous quote). I'm not sure making the case directly to the media is the best way to prove that he's Lou Gehrig 2.0 - something about actions speaking louder than words - but Ortiz has always used the media to throw pity parties for himself over the years.
And we return to disrespect. David Ortiz is having a tremendous season. He ranks second in the AL in slugging, third in OPS, fourth in batting average, sixth in RBI and eighth in home runs. In the Everyone Not Named Josh Hamilton Department, Ortiz has been as good a hitter as any in baseball this season and is the unquestioned MVP of this team with a quarter of the season in the books.
Does anyone not agree with that? Have you read anything even remotely close to negative when it comes to the performance of Ortiz this season? You haven't, because it doesn't exist. Ortiz isn't pissed about media coverage this season, he's still stewing about what was written in April 2010. At that time, he was coming off a 2009 season that included a .238 batting average and a .794 OPS, both easily career-lows in Boston. And in April 2010 Ortiz hit .143 with one homer in 56 at-bats.
To me, it was reasonable to speculate that maybe - maybe - Ortiz was done as an A-list slugger. Two sub-par seasons (he hit 23 homers in 109 games in 2008) plus a lousy April plus 33 years old plus a PED history made that all perfectly legitimate speculation. But Ortiz - who has been terrific since, really almost as good as he was at his peak - is used to being treated with kid gloves by the media and ownership and is hugely sensitive to anything even close to criticism. So his natural reaction, his default, is to let us all know how disrespected he feels. And when you've been in Boston for 10 years and light critical reaction sets you off every single time, it might be time to grow up a little.
The media doesn't respect him? Really? Again, find me all the critical pieces on Ortiz over the years. The media gave him an absolute free pass on the steroid stuff, closed their eyes and collectively walked away from it. And you know why? They like Ortiz - he's jokes around with them in the locker room and is always accessible. It's that simple. And now we are reading stories about Ortiz's remarkable late-career production that never mention his PED history. I mean, if the media truly didn't respect Ortiz wouldn't there be a lot more speculation as to how Ortiz has a 1.019 OPS at age 36?
(Oh, forget it. NESN.com has gone Woodward and Bernstein on me, right when I wasn't looking. Here's the headline from this morning: "Mike Aviles, David Ortiz Credit Healthy Diets for Continued Success This Season." Here's one highlight -- "Red Sox designated hitter David Ortiz has taken a cue on adhering to a diet as well. In an attempt to reduce his cholesterol –– and avoid taking medicine –– the 36-year-old trimmed roughly 20 pounds by cutting out alcohol and munching on more vegetables." Sold. Didn't we used to read this stuff about guys back in 1998 with no irony?)
And Ortiz is equally transparent when knocking the front office. Disrespect means only getting paid $14.5 million this season to DH. Ortiz wanted a multi-year deal, the Sox said no. They could have given him a four-year contract and he'd still complain about being screwed in the past. And it seems the rest of baseball passed too, or Ortiz would have signed somewhere else for the three-year deal he wanted. Does the rest of baseball disrespect him, too?
Ownership has paid David Ortiz over $80 million bucks to be disrespected over the last 10 years. They stood by him during the steroid stuff, said they believed his story. Whatever else they need to do to placate Ortiz, chances are that it will be done. And it still won't be enough.
David Ortiz has been worth every nickel of that $80 million and he's carrying this Red Sox team in 2012. Maybe he's a leader on this team and maybe he isn't, but he'd be best served to keep hitting and leave his greatest hit on the shelf.
