Ghana's mixed fortune as a dumping ground for e-waste
09 Nov 2008 12:16 GMT
"This is usually a non-combat zone but this time according to the Afghan national police, there were RPGs, rocket fire and a suicide bomber. Isaf police have told us that things are very sketchy," Al Jazeera's David Chater, reporting from the capital Kabul, said.
"Earlier this month, we do know that a suicide bomber was picked up in this area ... so things are developing in the Herat area."Afghan violence
An Afghan commander told Al Jazeera that the attack had been carried out in response to an incident in August in which at least 90 civilians, mostly women and children, were reportedly killed in a US raid.
Violence has increased steadily in Afghanistan in recent months as the Taliban, who were in government between 1996 and 2001, have grown in strength.
Spain has about 700 military personnel based in Afghanistan, most of them in Herat province.
The latest attack brings the number of Spanish troops killed in the fight against the Taliban to 25, while the total number of foreign military deaths in Afghanistan since the Taliban government was toppled is more than 1,000 soldiers.
Source: Al Jazeera and agencies

About 30 Afghans have been killed by the Taliban after it stopped a bus travelling from Kandahar to Helmand province. A defence ministry spokesman said that 31 civilians were killed in the attack in a Taliban-controlled area but a Taliban spokesman said that 27 Afghan army personnel had been killed. The defence ministry has denied the Taliban claim that the dead were soldiers. Can the Taliban be defeated? Should the Afghan government engage in negotiations with the group?

Military says fighters stopped civilians from fleeing ahead of air raid in Kandahar.

Hey Rebecca! Thanks for the great tip. I love the Cantor and recently heard an east coast friend (cellist/vocalist Mike Block) play in the Rodin Rotunda for a mixer. GREAT STUFF! He was positioned right in front of Rodin's "The Kiss". I like Mark Applebaum's work, so this sounds great. P.S. Hope you're well!

Ghana's mixed fortune as a dumping ground for e-waste
Return to Kuwait: The class of 1990
04 Feb 2013 19:00 GMT | Human Rights, Europe, United Kingdom
British researchers have confirmed that a skeleton with a cleaved skull and a curved spine found beneath a car park in central UK, was that of Richard III, the last English king to die in battle, solving a 500-year-old mystery about his final resting place.
Archaeologists announced the results of DNA tests on the skeleton's identity on Monday, which they hope might lead to a better understanding of how Richard died.
"There is a match between the maternal DNA from the descendants of the family of Richard the third and the skeletal remains that we found," researchers said.
Richard was killed fighting his eventual successor Henry Tudor at the Battle of Bosworth Field in central England in 1485.
A team of archaeologists and historians from the University of Leicester said evidence showed that a skeleton found last year during excavations of a medieval friary under a parking lot in the city was indeed that of Richard.
'Detective work'
Describing how the researchers discovered that the skeleton was indeed Richard's, Al Jazeera's Tim Friend said: "It has been an amazing piece of historical detective work".
"The local historians believed there was a possibility that his skeleton could still be there, so they started to excavate a year ago. They used all the modern techniques, including forensics, DNA, carbon dating, and other ways to establish the skeleton's identity.
"There were all sorts of speculation on whether his body had been slung into a river by his enemies, or whether it had indeed been buried.
"They found the injured skull and spine, which helped to determine what kind of weapons may have inflicted those injuries and when they were inflicted.
"These DNA tests went back 17 generations from Richard's sister to a Canadian living in London and they found a match beyond reasonable doubt.
"So now Richard will be buried in a cathedral in Leicester."

Home > Press > SAFENANO team complete BSI British Standards guide to safe handling of nanomaterials
The British Standards Institute today published the first publicly available extensive guide to safe handling of nanomaterials. PD 6699-2:2007 Nanotechnologies - Part 2: Guide to safe handling and disposal of manufactured nanomaterials provides step-by-step guidance through the general approach to management of risks, information needs, hazard assessment, measurement of exposure, methods of control and disposal. It is intended to help manufacturers and users work with nanomaterials in a safe and responsible way.
The guide was drafted by the SAFENANO team and approved by BSI Committee NTI/1, Nanotechnologies.
SAFENANO Director Rob Aitken, who led the team appointed to draft the guide said "Publication of this guide provides an important step forward in the information available to manufacturers and users of nanomaterials. It is intended to be a pragmatic document which provides users with a practical way to deal with nanomaterial risk issues".
The guide provides an innovative approach to hazard classification and suggests benchmark exposure levels for four classes of nanomaterials and an encouragement to collect exposure information. The benchmark levels are intended to provide reasonably cautions levels, but should not be considered as rigorously developed Workplace Exposure Limits. Control approaches for various scenarios such as deliberate aerosolization and transferring/mixing of dry materials, again with the encouragement that these are supported by measurement.
"Given the current state of knowledge about nanoparticle toxicology and risk it will be some time before formal workplace exposure limits can be developed. Our view is that this guide, and the benchmark levels suggested provides the best basis for progress at this stage." said Aitken.
'If you are developing, producing, handling, or otherwise working with engineered nanomaterials, READ THIS GUIDE!' said Andrew Maynard, Chief Scientific Advisor to the Woodrow Wilson International Center for Scholars' Project on Emerging Nanotechnologies in in his review of the guide . 'Its value lies in down-to-earth know-how. This is a shop-floor manual for making decisions where the rubber hits the road.' For the rest of Andrew's comments, please follow this link to read his review and blog - Safe nanotechnology in the workplace: A practical guide
The guide is available to download for free from the BSI site - Click here for access.
If you would like to comment on the guide please contribute your thoughts to the BSI Guide thread in the SAFENANO Community.
About SAFENANO
The Safenano Initiative is a venture by the Institute of Occupational Medicine ( IOM ). The initiative was designed to help industrial and academic communities to quantify and control the risks to their workforce, as well as to consumers, the general population collage and the environment, through both information provision and consultancy services.

The Perfect Halloween Costume: Jack Ruby's Hat and Shackles, Now Up for Auction
Heritage Auction Gallery had hoped to keep The Hat under its hat a little while longer -- the press release was going out tomorrow, matter of fact. But word got out (someone espied the item already posted on the auction house's Web site), which is why Heritage's Noah Fleisher is out spreading the word: Beginning in a few weeks, you can begin bidding on the hat Jack Ruby was sporting when he shot Lee Harvey Oswald in the basement of Dallas Police HQ on November 24, 1963. It's part of Heritage's November Music & Entertainment Auction. But of course.
"And not only do we have the Ruby hat, but we have the front page of The Dallas Morning News from November 22, 1963, signed by JFK," Fleisher says, referring to this heretofore unheard-of piece of memorabilia. "It's even more spectacular when you see it." And one more thing: "We also have the Ruby shackles -- the ones that were around his legs when he died so his body wouldn't get stolen. The police shackled his body to the bed. It's a little morbid." Unlike, say, this.

Warm Potato Salad with Lemon and Chive Vinaigrette
This recipe can be served warm, as an accompanying vegetable, or cold as part of a group of salads – in which case you still need to pour on the dressing while the potatoes are warm.
Serves 4-6
|Oven temperatures and Conversions
|Click here for information
This recipe is taken from Delia Smith's Summer Collection.
First of all place the potatoes in a saucepan with enough boiling water just to cover them, add the mint and some salt, and simmer them for about 15-20 minutes.
Meanwhile make the vinaigrette (watch How To Make Dressings here).
Using a pestle and mortar, crush the garlic and rock salt together to a paste, then gradually whisk in all the other dressing ingredients.
When the potatoes are cooked, drain them in a colander and transfer them to a serving bowl.
Pour on the vinaigrette dressing while they are still hot, toss them around in the dressing to get a good coating, then finally scatter in the chopped chives and spring onions and serve.

AMD A10-6800K Overclocked To 8.2 GHz, Breaks And Sets World Record
Posted: Jul 26, 2013 5:06 am | CPU, APU & Chipsets Press Releases
Comment | Email to a Friend | Font Size: AA
A Finnish group of Overclockers who call themselves 'The Stilt' have managed to score a world record using AMD's newest Richland architecture based A10-6800K APU and using the Asus F2A85-V Pro motherboard. Back in June, The Stilt had managed to score 8000.48 MHz with a bus clock of 126.99 MHz and applying 2.008 volts to the CPU. The new world record, set by the same group, managed to score an applaud-worthy 8203.01 MHz with a bus clock of 130.21 MHz, multiplier set at 63x and a, believe it or not, lower core voltage of 1.968 volts. The recently discovered x87 patch was also applied, which allowed the poor A10-6800K to post better SuperPi scores.

It was not worth the price. It listed 5 restaurants on site, but there were only three. you had to wallk a long distance to the other resort for the other two. You could only get food at certain times. It was supposed to be adults only but kids from the hotel next door would come over to our side. The staff was super friendly and helpful.

We love this hotel and have been several times. It has a beautiful beach and rooms are very attractive. The food is good even though there are only three restaurant on premise with a 4th at the hotel next door. Top shelf drinks and the waiters will bring you food and drink to the beach. Just a great vacation!

I decided to take the leap and sign up to EE for my wife's phone (previously on T-Mobile). They transferred the account over from T-Mobile to EE and gave me completely separate billing.
I got a bill for £347 for over-usage of Data and unfortunately the payment went out via direct debit before I could stop it.
T-Mobile claims it is over-usage of data (although there is a cap on the contract!). Further the contract had moved over to EE by then so there should be no bill on that number anyway.
T-Mobile advised it could be up to 14 days, maybe even longer before they assess the account and recalculate. But what is there to recalculate, it is an charge on an account that clearly does not exist anymore!

Tony and I quickly decided to make the other wait while we tried to score with Mell. She finished her jog and agreed to some refreshments back at our place. Tony got a workout himself once Mell really kicked it into high gear and fucked the shit out of Tony. We stood up the other girl and never called her back. After you see this anal action, you will know exactly why we decided to forget about the other girl we were trying to find.
