U.S. Apologizes to Guatemala for Syphilis Study
The U.S. apologized Friday for 1940s government-sponsored experiments in which hundreds of Guatemalan prisoners, soldiers and mentally ill patients were intentionally infected with sexually transmitted diseases.
The subjects were infected with syphilis or gonorrhea, without their consent, as part of the experiments conducted between 1946 and 1948 by researchers in the U.S. Public Health Service. They were infected through injection or by way of prostitutes who were allowed to visit prisoners. Then the subjects were treated with penicillin. About 1,500 study subjects were involved, according to the U.S.
The aim of the research—conducted with cooperation from some Guatemalan officials—was to determine whether the relatively new antibiotic could be used to prevent infection after exposure to the diseases. The results were never published.
The study was brought to the U.S. government's attention this summer by Wellesley College historian Susan Reverby. It reflects a new development in a dark corner in the history of medical research that led, starting in the 1970s, to regulations to protect human participants.
"Although these events occurred more than 64 years ago, we are outraged that such reprehensible research could have occurred under the guise of public health," Secretary of State Hillary Clinton and Secretary of Health and Human Services Kathleen Sebelius said in a joint statement. "We deeply regret that it happened, and we apologize to all the individuals who were affected by such abhorrent research practices."
President Barack Obama called Guatemalan President Alvaro Colom to express regret for the study, the White House said Friday.
U.S. officials said the government has asked the National Academy of Sciences' Institute of Medicine, a federal advisory body, to investigate the research. Separately, a presidential commission will work to ensure medical research globally meets current ethical standards, they said.
In a statement Friday through its embassy in Washington, Guatemala condemned the research and said it would cooperate with the U.S. probe. "The government of Guatemala condemns these actions and deeply deplores that these experiments affected innocent people," the statement read.
Both U.S. and Guatemalan officials said it was too early to discuss whether the U.S. government would offer compensation to the people who were infected, or their descendants, saying they would await the results of the Institute of Medicine investigation.
Ms. Reverby said she came across the experiment while conducting research on a famous 40-year study in Tuskegee, Ala., in which researchers studied—but refrained from treating—African-American men who had syphilis. The fallout from that study, halted in 1972, helped give rise to modern bioethics and protections that now forbid such ethical violations.
U.S. regulations now require that human subjects of medical research be properly informed about experiments in which they are participating and provide informed consent. Use of vulnerable populations is restricted.
Ms. Reverby posted her study online Friday, and it is scheduled for publication in January in the Journal of Policy History.
It remains unclear how many such experiments American researchers conducted in the past, experts said. More than 40 studies involving intentional infection in the U.S. are known, said Francis Collins, director of the National Institutes of Health.
The Public Health Service knew at the time that its research would raise ethical questions, and that is one reason it did the work in Guatemala, Ms. Reverby said. Her study quotes Thomas Parran, surgeon general at the time, acknowledging that "we couldn't do such an experiment in this country."
Guatemala also was chosen because its leading venereal-disease public-health official had trained with the U.S. Public Health Service, her study said.
Arthur Caplan, director of the Center for Bioethics at the University of Pennsylvania, said the Guatemala work "takes your breath away." He said he knows of no other instance in which the U.S. government had deliberately infected prisoners or other institutionalized people overseas.
"People tend to want to believe what happened at Tuskegee was an anomaly, but here you see the same attitude toward minorities" and vulnerable populations, he said.

ABMU healthboards sees 188% rise in complaints
Posted: May 02, 2014|
COMPLAINTS by patients about treatment in hospitals run by Abertawe Bro Morgannwg University (AMBU) healthboard have risen by 188 per cent in the past five years.
Plaid Cymru submitted a Freedom of Information request to all seven Welsh health boards, and found that complaints to ABMU rose from 298 in 2009 to 858 during that period.
Bethan Jenkins, AM for South Wales West, said: "We keep being reassured that things are improving with ABMU, yet the bad news keeps on coming.
"This will further demoralise a largely first class workforce that continues to be tarnished with the same brush.

"The health board is letting down the people who work for it, as well as the patients."
A spokeswoman for AMBU said: "We are always sorry whenever anyone has cause to contact us with their concerns and apologise sincerely to patients and families we have let down. "We have many examples of excellent care in all our hospitals. ABMU has over 2.5 million patient contacts a year and as the FOI figures show one of the lowest complaint rates of the NHS in Wales."But any case of poor care is not acceptable. All patients have the right to expect consistent, high quality care and we are doing our utmost to ensure this is delivered on every ward and department."To achieve this, the feedback and experiences of patients and families, whether they are good or bad, are critical so we can make the necessary positive changes in order to continuously improve and develop our services. "The Health Board actively encourages patients and families to get in touch and has a number of ways to do this including publically available direct email and telephone details for the Patient Experience Team, ward clinics for patients and families, friends and family feedback boxes on wards and concerns clinics where people can meet face-to-face with senior managers and clinicians."As well as increasing the number of staff in key areas we are seeing positive outcomes including improvements in ambulance handover times, mortality rates to below the Welsh average and a reduction in infection rates."PATIENT COMPLAINTS BY HEALTH BOARDSAbertawe Bro Morgannwg2009: 2982010: 4152011: 6162012: 7912013: 858Total: 2978Rise between 2009 and 2013: 188%Aneurin Bevan2008-09: 6172009-10: 605 2010-11: 8152011-12: 8682012-13: 9652013-14: 964Total: 4834Rise between 2008-09 and 2013-14: 56% Betsi Cadwaladr2011-12: 1330*2012-13: 1594*2013-14: 1577*Total: 4501Rise between 2011-12 and 2013-14: 19%Cardiff & Vale2008-09: 8782009-10: 8592010-11: 7722011-12: 11842012-13: 18832013: 1671 (information supplied up to 26/03/14) Total: 7247Rise between 2008-09 and 2012-13: 114%Cwm Taf2009-10: 166*2010-11: 263*2011-12: 647*2012-13: 637*2013-14: 551*Total: 2264Rise between 2009-10 and 2013-14: 231%Hywel Dda2008-09: 7012009-10: 11252010-11: 11002011-12: 10422012-13: 9562013-14: 741 (up to 28/2/14)Total: 5665Rise between 2008-09 and 2013-14: 5%Powys (both formal and informal complaints)2008-09: 2822009-10: 2512010-11: 2052011-12: 2082012-13: 2362013-14: Not providedTotal: 1009Rise between 2008-09 and 2012-13: -16.3%*The numbers in some categories have not been included because health boards have only said the number of complaints were between 0-5.

On behalf of the Forefront Server Security team at Microsoft, I am pleased to announce the release of Hotfix Rollup 3 for Antigen 9 for Exchange, Service Pack 2!
On August 27th 2010 Microsoft shipped Hotfix Rollup 3 for Antigen 9 for Exchange, Service Pack 2.
For a complete list of the new features and fixes included in this rollup along with directions for download, please see the following Knowledge Base article: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2302001
As the installer runs, server service restarts may be necessary so please plan accordingly when applying this Hotfix Rollup.
Robert McCarthyMicrosoft Security
We are having errors related to Antigen 9 Sp2. Aparently due we have not applied rollup 3 before January 31th. However intallation of rollup 3 or rollup 4 fails pointing that "The Rollup contains files with versions same/older than present on you server".
Any help will be apreciated.
thanks in advances.
Hi Armando,
The date itself that you are attempting to apply Rollup 3 or 4 would not lend to the error you are seeing.
Please confirm you are attempting to apply Rollup 4; support.microsoft.com/.../2508121
This will be Antigen version 9.2.1097.72
Prior to applying Rollup 4, browse to your Antigen install files. Typically they will install here by default: C:\Program Files\Microsoft Antigen for Exchange
Highlight "antigenservice.exe.". Click the VERSION tab. See if it is a file version older than 9.2.1097.72. If so, you should be able to install Rollup 4 if you are installing Antigen Rollup 4 on top of this version..on the same server..in the same default directory. If you are still seeing this error, check to confirm you don't have another install of Antigen anywhere on the server or any files from a previous install.
Hope this helps point us in the right direction.
Hello Rob.-
Thanks for your attention anasnwer.
Aparently this error was related to the issue reported last weekend (blogs.technet.com/.../cloudmark-and-antigen-9-x-issues-on-the-weekend-of-06-25-11.aspx). After following these steps all started running well again.
Thanks again !!.

1997 Ford F-150 • 6 cylinder 2WD Manual • 105,000 miles
When my truck is cold, no problem. When Truck warms all the way up, and I stop at traffic light, I watch oil pressure fall on gauge. I raise idle, oil pressure goes back up. This doesn't happen when moving, only at idle. Have done the kerosene treatment to clean sump, can not afford to have engine removed to clean; no more goop coming out. Have replaced IAC vavle. The idle doesn't drop, oil pressure does. Sending unit for gauge replaced. Mechanic tested pump with mechanical gauge and pump is working. I live in Florida, have now got a less than 10 mile radius to drive, This is scary. Any ideas? I do not have money to throw at this.
What do you mean by "the pump is working"? Was there a low pressure reading when read with a mechanical gauge? If not, then you are likely just looking at a bad oil pressure sender which is minor.
As in my question above, The sending unit was replaced. Mechanics thought that fixed problem. Did not. Then they idled truck all day on mechanical gauge. They said couldn't find the problem. Had mechanic take truck home, didn't experience problem. This was months ago, have since lost job, have no money. The problem has gotten worse since then. When IAC valve was replaced, it was a question of whether was oil pressure or idle. Idle does not change, only oil pressure. This does not happen when cold, or when truck is moving, only when stopped and at idle. I can not do stop and go traffic, as truck is manual trans, and only have two feet. Please help.
This isn't a big mystery. The mechanical test either proves there is no pressure problem or it doesn't. If it proves that you have low pressure, then you probably need a new oil pump. If you're putting cleaning solvents in the oil, then you're making the problem much worse. If the mechanical test proves the pressure is OK, then you simply have a gauge problem.
Is this really that simple? Wouldn't oil pressure drop when engine is cold? Or truck is moving? Why is only when stopped and at idle? Please explain, I need to understand.
The lowest pressure is always at idle because the pump is at it's lowest RPM and the warmer the engine, the lower it gets as the oil gets thinner from the heat. Your only concern is that it never drops below about 5 to 8PSI
No, I never said that. You still haven't told me what the lowest pressure reading that was taken with a mechanical gauge was.
I don't know what readings were, only that I was told the oil pump was fine. They leaned towards sludge in sump, which is why the solvents were used, there was a lot of gunk. To clean sump any other way involved pulling engine, just couldn't afford. I thought that if oil pump was problem would have symptoms all the time, not just hot at idle. One of those either it works or it doesn't.
If the inside of your engine is sludged up, the very worst thing you could do is use a solvent that will loosen it up so it can travel into places where it can cause real problems. Either the pump is maintain sufficient pressure or it isn't. If sludge in the sump was your problem, the result would be low pressure even with the mechanical gauge. So again, either the pressure reading is sufficient or it isn't.
Ok, so what you are saying, is I need to do mechanical gauge now. Wish I could, but can not afford. Am broke. IS there a way to tell at home, without gauge? Without blowing engine? No, they weren't saying engine sludged up, they were saying sump sludged. Warmed engine, turned off, added 1 cup kerosene to oil, ran 5 mins, then drained oil, changed filter, put new oil in. The semi-solids that came out were nasty, this was repeated again. Last oil change, no more yuk. Am woman, in case you couldn't tell. Was advised this by 3 different Ford mechanics, now you are saying was bad to do? I always did my maintenance, never more that 3000 miles per oil change. The only problem ever had was loss of coolant, This engine had bad seal, was replaced early on. Never had any sign of coolant in oil, but do continue to loose coolant, slowly.
I got a couple of new tires put on my car. They said that the right rear hub assembly needs to be replaced (bearing and seals). I asked how long it would last. He didn't know for ...

Washington?s Mathieu Perreault is sent flying by a check from the Rangers? Brian Boyle, right.

Maybe it was human nature. The Rangers said they wanted the Presidents' Trophy, which goes to the NHL's best overall regular-season team. Their coach, John Tortorella, before the final game of the season Saturday night, said they wanted it, he wanted it.
But nobody really needs the Presidents' Trophy. Teams don't touch it, stick it in a corner somewhere. The 1991-92 Rangers won one of those. How'd that work out? The Washington Capitals won it in 2010 and went out in the first round of the playoffs.
The point is, yeah, it's an accomplishment to finish with the best record in the NHL. But so what? ...

Hello guys,
at the moment I evolve the possibility to run an office machine from my smartphone over a microUSB-serial cable connection.
For this intention the smartphone must run an application (suspecting C/C++) which ist original developed and compiled for Windows XP/2000. Does the possibilty exists that I'm able to run those application on my mobile platform? In other words: are there any runtime-environments like the Wine Project which run Windows appl. on a linux platform?
Unfortunately I don't get source code to compile it for Windows Mobile.
Thank you for any response to my progress

Long Description to add
Spaghetti with Mexican Sauce
To make this sauce, you need the other half of the Mixed Double recipe, Cheese and Herb-crusted Cottage Pie, which will provide you with just the right quantity of cooked minced beef.
Macaroni Cheese with Courgettes and Bacon
I like this made with penne, but wholewheat macaroni makes a good alternative. Courgettes can be replaced with leeks, broad beans or broccoli sprigs and, for a vegetarian, in addition to these the bacon can be replaced by mushrooms.
Penne with Leeks and Bacon
A moveable feast, you can use a variety of vegetables here - in summer, courgettes are good, or onions. Leave out the bacon for a vegetarian version...
Pasta Vialli
Former Chelsea FC manager Gianluca Vialli inspired this lovely Italian pasta dish - ideal for veggies if you use parmesan-style cheese.
Penne with Wild Mushrooms and Creme Fraiche
Pasta needs a flavourful sauce and there's none better than this wonderful mushroom and creme fraiche version. The addition of porcini and balsamic vinegar adds depth and richness.
Rigatoni and Asparagus au Gratin
This is an excellent way to turn 8 oz (225 g) of asparagus stalks into a substantial supper dish for two people. Vegetarians might like to know that a vegetarian parmesan-style cheese is available from www.bookhamcheese.co.uk
Roasted Mediterranean Vegetable Lasagne
This recipe consistently appears in your top 10 favourites on the site - and no wonder! Summery vegetables in a light creamy cheese sauce and pasta are an irresistible combination, whether you're veggie or not!
Souffled Macaroni Cheese
I've made many a macaroni cheese in my time, but this, I promise you, is the best ever. To make this for 4 people, just double the ingredients and use a 10 x 8 x 2 inch (25.5 x 20 x 5 cm) dish, increasing the cooking time by 3-5 minutes.
Spinach and Ricotta Lasagne with Pine Nuts
Vegetarians certainly won't feel that they're missing out when they try this gorgeous lasagne, packed with creaminess and flavour. One of Delia's most popular meat-free recipes.
Pasta with Walnut Sauce
Crunchy walnuts marry extremely well with creamy pasta sauces and add plenty of texture. This walnut version is a real winner that will go down a treat with vegetarians.

With same success I have used a quarter teaspoon baking soda dissolved in a cup with distilled water, after that I finish with ethyl alcohol > 90% or mixed with distilled water.
You basically need something alkaline to clean the oily traces, it apear as haze but it degraded oil/grease as I wrote above.
Even some baby soaps mixed with distilled water should do the job.

Use a fridge thermometer to check the temperature of your fridge regularly. The coldest part of the fridge should be between 0 degrees Celcius and 5 degrees Celcius (32 degrees Fahrenheit and 41 degrees Fahrenheit).
You could use a probe thermometer to check if food is being kept hot (above 63 degrees Celcius) or cold (below 8 degrees Celcius). Make sure you always clean the thermometer thoroughly every time you use it, before and after putting it in the food.
Some foods need to be kept chilled to keep them safe, for example food with a 'use by' date, food that you have cooked and won't serve immediately, or other ready-to-eat food such as prepared salads. If these foods are not properly chilled, bacteria can grow and make people ill.
When you're serving or displaying chilled food you can keep it above 8 degrees Celcius for a maximum of four hours. You can only do this once. Then you must throw away the food or keep it chilled until it's used.
It is important to cool food as quickly as possible in order to prevent the growth of bacteria. Ideally this should be cooled to less than 8 degrees Celcius within 90 minutes.
Food can be cooled quickly by a variety of methods. These include:
Hot foods must be stored above 63 degrees Celcius to prevent the excessive growth of bacteria. Hot foods can be kept below this temperature for a maximum of two hours before being used, returned to above 63 degrees Celcius or chilled.

(Of course we would get a crib later, at least by the time he's 1)
Should we get a crib or just a Pack n Play??
(Of course we would get a crib later, at least by the time he's 1)
That's basically what we did with our son. He slept in the bassinet at first, then we he got too big for that, we weren't quite ready for him to go into his own room yet, so he slep in the pack n play for awhile.
We used a pack n play with YDD. We did a bit of traveling her first year and could just take the bed she was already used to with us.
They now make a better mattress for the Pack n play. I would go with that.
The thing with the pack n play is that it also has a bassinet and changing table for the first couple of months. Then the mattress should provide for the child as it gets older.

DD's: 8, 0
I'm not personally a fan of the pack-and-play. I found that lying them down after snuggling up with me was very difficult... it's a long way down to the bottom of a pack-and-play!
I also found that my oldest was kind-a a bed snob. I think it was because he was on our comfy mattress for the first few weeks before we even attempted to put him anywhere, but the pack-and-play was just like sleeping on a board. He wouldn't do it!

Health and safety
No one expects to become sick while vacationing, or to be victimized by a thief, but unfortunately such things do occur. By making some preparations before you leave, and taking simple precautions while in Italy, you can greatly improve your chances of avoiding problems.
Take heart in knowing that Italy is quite safe, and that Italian healthcare providers are well-trained, compassionate, and efficient. This page provides advice on how to stay safe and healthy, and what to do if you become ill or injured.
Personal safety
Traveling around Italy on foot, by bus, or on the metro is very safe if some commonsense precautions are observed. Petty theft is the most common threat, and tourists are a favorite target. Be especially careful in crowded tourist locations like the Colosseum and Forum area, and in train stations, buses, and other crowded places. Bus lines 40 and 64 connecting the main train station and the Vatican provide excellent opportunities for pickpockets.
To avoid problems, follow these simple suggestions:
Report the theft of personal items or credit cards, missing vehicles, and lost or stolen identity papers to the Carabineri (police) by dialing 112 and filing a report as soon as possible. For missing identity papers, you will be given a special receipt to use in obtaining replacements; also contact your embassy or consulate. Lost or stolen credit cards must be reported to your credit card company.
Finding medical assistance
In case of a traumatic medical emergency, call emergency medical services at 118.
There are special emergency health clinics for tourists that offer multilingual assistance. In Rome, the Guardia Turistica is on Via Morosini, 30, at the Nuova Regina Margherita Hospital in Trastevere. For minor ailments such as headache, rash, or traveler's diarrhea, the place to begin is at a pharmacy or chemist. They will listen to your complaints, recommend remedies (over-the-counter, of course), and if necessary suggest the Guardia Turistica or a local physician. If a pharmacy is closed, it will have a sign posted giving the location of the nearest one that is open.
Italian law
The law requires that you carry your identity papers on your person. Your papers may be requested while walking or driving. If you've committed a minor offence, the Italian police will no doubt be lenient with you as long as you show good faith. However, you will be subject to the same punishment as an Italian citizen for any offence, whether disobeying traffic rules, defrauding the public transport system, displaying public drunkenness, fighting, etc. Remember that the usage of illegal drugs, including soft drugs, is strictly forbidden.

A snowplow (somewhere in Canada according to YouTube) clears the rail tracks after a big storm.
When we consider the safety of rail carrying petroleum products, we rarely take into account the problem of snow.
The Atlantic's Citylab looks into the question. If that's now enough, Citylab has a spectacular video of a conventional train, not a snowplow train, blasting through snow and makes consider just how safe petroleum on rail really is:
While certainly mesmerizing, there's an important issue to note that has gone unremarked upon since the video went viral.

1997 Honda Civic • 1.5L 4 cylinder Automatic • 168,909 miles
After I changed the fuel pump the gas pedal became unresponsive and even when mashed completely to the floor it is unresponsive. This is a 1997 Honda Civic LX. I changed the fuel pump because the car was no longer starting. I finally got it to start by replacing the fuel pump with a newer one. The car now starts perfectly every time and sounds better than it has in a long time. The gas pedal seems extremely light and easily pushed and does absolutely nothing when pressed. I cant even get out the driveway. Thanks, hope this is detailed enough

Sounds like the throttle cable is disconnected. It could be broken too, but that is not common.
Throttle cables fairly easy to replace? Should I have a mechanic install it or is it safe to do so myself?

If you have the skills to replace a fuel pump, you have more than enough skill to do a throttle cable, but first check if it got disconnected somehow. Usually on imports there's a quarter-round cable guide on the throttle body and a soft metal pellet on the end that slides into a hole to attach it.
Yesterday I placed a new fuel pump in to my 1997 Honda civic. It began to start every single time. Before it would never start. Each time I cranked it up it started yesterday. This morning I am back to square one because the car will no longer start again. The whole purpose of fixing it was to sell it.

Sounds like you have an intermittent problem that may totally unrelated to the fuel pump. You also have to consider that fuel pump problems can be caused by things other than the pump itself. I'd start by measuring the voltage on the 12 volt feed wire to the pump. You should find 12 volts there while a helper is cranking the engine.

Evaluation of an Innovative Approach to Improving Middle School Students' Academic Achievement
Poynton, Timothy A., Carlson, Matt W., Hopper, James A., Carey, John C., Professional School Counseling
This article presents the results of an evaluation conducted by two middle school counselors, in collaboration with university researchers, to assess the effectiveness of a classroom intervention designed to impact academic achievement. The intervention utilized was a standardized conflict resolution curriculum, which then was linked to problem-solving strategies across core academic areas. The results of the evaluation indicate that students' self-efficacy beliefs regarding problem solving were higher in the intervention group than in the comparison group; however, no significant differences in academic achievement were found.
The ASCA National Model[R] (American School Counselor Association, 2003) highlights the importance of identifying school counseling interventions that impact students' academic achievement. According to the ASCA National Model, developmental classroom-based interventions led by school counselors have a prominent place within school counseling programs because they enhance the capacity of school counselors to benefit all students. School counselors ought to be able to use research literature to identify classroom-based interventions they can utilize to impact academic achievement. Unfortunately, the current school counseling research literature contains relatively few outcome studies that document the impact of classroom-based interventions on students' academic achievement (Gerler, 1985; Whiston & Sexton, 1998). In a recent Delphi study of research needs, school counseling leaders identified research that studies the outcomes of specific interventions on academic achievement to be of critical importance (Dimmitt, Carey, McGannon, & Henningson, 2005).
The outcome studies of classroom-based school counseling interventions that do exist highlight the need for more documentation of this aspect of professional school counselors' work. Hadley (1988) found that elementary students who experienced classroom-based interventions from an eclectic range of personal/social skills curricula (e.g., Developing Understanding of Self and Others, Most Important Person, and 100 Ways to Improve Self-Concept in the Classroom) showed higher reading scores than students who had not participated in the program. Lee (1993) found positive effects of the Succeeding in Schools program on elementary students' standardized achievement test scores. Cams and Cams (1991) found that a program designed to enhance elementary students' self-efficacy, metacognitive skills, and understanding of preferred learning style had an impact on standardized achievement test scores.
In an exceptionally well-designed study, Brigman and Campbell (2003) examined whether the combination of curriculum-based and group-based interventions with a focus on cognitive and metacognitive skills, social skills, and self-management skills known to be related to academic achievement would have a measurable impact on students' scores on a standardized state achievement test. In the treatment schools, school counselors implemented the Academic and Social Skills Support: Student Success Skills curriculum in both classroom-based and small group formats, and they included 185 students who were randomly selected from schools that implemented the study's counselor-led interventions. The control group included 185 students randomly selected from schools that did not implement the interventions. Only students who initially scored between the 25th and 50th percentiles on the Florida Comprehensive Assessment Test (FCAT) were included in this study. Treatment and control groups contained students from the 5th, 6th, 8th, and 9th grades, and they were from schools matched on geographic proximity, race, and socioeconomic level. The performance of the treatment group on the FCAT was significantly higher than that of the control group, and it demonstrated that classroom-based interventions that focus on certain skills can have a substantial impact on academic achievement. …

On March 21, I passed through Union Square, which is the new Zuccotti Park. Just north of the subway entrance, about fifty Occupy Wall Street organizers and participants were sitting cross-legged on the ground, conducting a General Assembly. A few hundred yards away, a march for Trayvon Martin, the unarmed teenager shot and killed by neighborhood watch coordinator George Zimmerman three weeks before, was mobilizing. I learned the next day that Martin's parents had come up from Florida for the event and that it was called the Million Hoodie March. At the time, I knew only that thirty or forty people were holding placards that referred to the killing. I stood for a while and watched the Trayvon Martin supporters, and then I decided to move over to the General Assembly.
General Assemblies are open meetings; I joined a ring of observers surrounding the seated OWSers. It was about 5:30 in the afternoon, the weather was warm, and an unexpected calm came over me as I listened in. It's difficult to be cynical or even skeptical when you see a General Assembly that is run well. I had sat in on others; not all of them move along as briskly or with the same intensely quiet purposefulness of this one, and I had even seen a few veer into the very obfuscation, paralysis, and lack of transparency they are meant to replace. After a few minor orders of business, an organizer quickly raised what was clearly the most important item on the agenda: he moved to postpone two working-group meetings scheduled for 6:00 and suggested that, instead of holding the meetings, those assembled lend their numbers to the Trayvon Martin march. There was a display of what David Graeber calls the "sparkly fingers"--consensus. A woman from Florida, who happened to be standing alongside me, let out a whoop; the outburst, oddly emotional, was acknowledged and yet not acknowledged, or at any rate it failed to break the concentration of the powerfully efficient machine that was the General Assembly. Like me, the woman from Florida had wandered over from the other side of the park to watch the democratic process at work. She seemed stunned by the group's generosity, and in a way, so was I.
I found myself thinking back to the days when Barack Obama was vilified by Sarah Palin, Rudolph Giuliani, and others for being a "community organizer." In its wonkiness and openness, in its simple kindness, the General Assembly's offer seemed like the epitome of community organizing.
Occupy will mark its nine-month anniversary on May 17. It is a measure of the movement's vigor and its refusal to go away that the nine moments chosen here are bookended by two large-scale calls to action: the one that inaugurated the movement and the one that leads off its spring resurgence: the call for tens of thousands to Occupy Chicago and other cities for a General Strike on May 1.
Even more ambitious than the original call to occupy Zuccotti Park on September 17, 2011, the General Strike signifies something quite different from the loss of momentum that was expected to have occurred over the winter. From what the journalist Roger Lowenstein has called its "improbable campgrounds thrown together in the shadows of New York skyscrapers," to its growing pains as it ends old political alliances and forms new ones, to its plan to meet the NATO Summit head-on in peaceful protest in Chicago in mid-May, the movement remains unmistakably alive.
What follows are nine moments that chart its progress and suggest its future direction.
Janet Byrne is the editor of The Occupy Handbook.
In mid-July 2011, the Canadian magazine Adbusters used two ads to promote the idea of a peaceful protest in New York. The Estonian-born Kalle Lasn, the magazine's co-founder, chose his mother's birthday, September 17, as the day the protest would begin. He and senior Adbusters editor Micah White posed a question: "What is our one demand?" Was the question an unanswerable "Zen koan," as Dow Jones's MarketWatch columnist Paul B. Farrell suggested? Or was it meant literally? Broadly stated, the demand seemed to be: let's get money out of politics. The idea soon morphed into a decision not to make one demand. Instead, income inequality, bank executives' pay, excessive lobbying in Congress, and other grievances became collective rallying points. Meanwhile, Lasn and White, in the anti-proprietary spirit of Occupy, a people's movement, make no claim to ownership of OWS, saying simply, "It was out of our hands."
On August 2, anthropologist David Graeber, a few friends from the downtown New York City arts collective 16 Beaver, and some sixty other activists splintered off from a traditional protest meeting at Bowling Green Park and formed the movement's first General Assembly. A decision-making body that works horizontally, or without leaders, the General Assembly became a cornerstone of the Occupy movement. Graeber, an anarchist and a gifted writer and public speaker whose grasp of the nuances of economics is on full display in Debt: The First 5,000 Years, soon came up with the slogan (he says he had help) "We are the 99 percent"--a phrase with roots in the income-inequality research of the economists Emmanuel Saez and Thomas Piketty.
Mention anarchism and Gandhi in the same breath, as David Graeber frequently does, and the reaction is often one of profound skepticism. But the connection is worth examining if one wants to understand both the inner workings of Occupy and the ways in which the movement tapped into the American public's desire for change--becoming, in the words of PIMCO CEO Mohamed A. El-Erian, "the catalyst redefining policy imperatives around the world." As Graeber points out, OWS was established on "basically anarchist principles." And by October, 37 percent of Americans, according to a poll conducted by AP-GfK, supported the protesters. Fifty-eight percent to 81 percent of Americans were "angry" at politicians and the government, AP-GfK found. Common political wisdom is that the comfortable ceiling for this sentiment is 20 percent; the country had gone outside the comfort zone by an unprecedented 38 percent. Finally, according to AP-GfK, 56 percent of Americans believed that the economy was the most important issue to be addressed. With its focus now the economy, the movement quickly became a force that even the objects of its attack could find little fault with. Americans not otherwise inclined to support a protest movement supported Occupy Wall Street's Gandhian anarchist approach and its transparency--a transparency almost universally acknowledged to be lacking in government and in large institutions such as investment banks.
The first large-scale arrests associated with Occupy Wall Street took place when officers from the New York City Police Department arrested some seven hundred who attempted to cross the Brooklyn Bridge on foot using both the walkway and the roadway, shutting one lane of the latter. The demonstrators were herded with plastic netting, bound by plastic handcuffs, and made to remove their shoelaces. Three days later, protesters filed suit against the city for entrapment. Mayor Michael Bloomberg and Raymond Kelly, the police commissioner, were named in the suit. By February 2012, according to the New York Times, 174 of the 686 cases in which charges were brought had been dismissed.
Tens of thousands of protesters, perhaps as many as 40,000, turned out in Foley Square for an "International Day of Action." Of particular note was the heavy union presence, which created brand-new alliances for Occupy and bulked its numbers. Among the unions represented were the Transport Workers Union, 1199 Service Employees International Union, the United Federation of Teachers, the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers, the Retail, Wholesale and Department Store Union, the United Auto Workers, and United Scenic Artists Local 829. As George Gresham, president of 1199 SEIU United Healthcare Workers East and the grandson of a Virginia sharecropper, later wrote, "To those of us in the labor movement, it's clear that Occupy Wall Street is doing what only the most tenacious organizers can: forging a way forward when progress seems impossible. . . . Because Occupy Wall Street has drawn attention by marching across bridges and sitting down in streets, some critics call it a lawless mob. But Occupy's peaceful protesters are firmly in the tradition of the civil rights movement."
Occupy protests spread to 100 U.S. cities and 1,500 cities worldwide in a "Day of Rage" against the world financial system. Amy Goodman of Democracy Now! interviewed Gerome Rothman, field director of Tokyo's largest foreign-led labor union, the Tokyo General Union: "One of the people I talked to, I asked him why he was there," Rothman said, "and his response was, 'Because I can't be on Wall Street.' And I feel the same exact way. I can't be on Wall Street, but I live in Japan, and there's a way for me to show my support" of the 99 percent. Perhaps the most widely covered city was Rome, the only site of violent protests in an otherwise peaceful worldwide show of solidarity. In London, 250 people set up an encampment of 70 tents outside St. Paul's Cathedral. It would remain in place until February 28, 2012, when bailiffs dismantled it. Globalrevolution.tv, which has been livestreaming the Occupation, recorded the arrests of Citibank customers who were apprehended seemingly for nothing other than closing their accounts. At least seventeen were arrested. Citibank issued a statement disputing that the arrests were made strictly because customers had elected to close their accounts. As reported on Naked Capitalism, video records and the accounts of those arrested appeared to contradict the Citibank statement.
Before dawn on October 25, police raided the Occupy Oakland encampment, injuring ex-marine Scott Olsen, 24. Born in Onalaska, Wisconsin, Olsen had served two tours in Iraq and returned home unharmed. He was hit in the head by the police with what Reuters described as a 'nonlethal' crowd-control projectile. The incident is frequently cited as one of the top law-enforcement public relations disasters of the Occupation. Three weeks later, on November 15, another predawn sweep cleared Zuccotti Park.
The Zuccotti Park eviction led, two days later, to the arrests of 240 protesters in New York, among them three 1199 labor leaders: president George Gresham, national president Mary Kay Henry, and executive SEIU 32BJ vice president Kevin Doyle. As the New York Times reported, this "Day of Action" saw an attempt to delay of the opening of the New York Stock Exchange, subway demonstrations, a Brooklyn Bridge sit-in, and clashes with the police in Zuccotti Park. On the following day, November 18, Los Angeles police lieutenant John Pike and a second officer pepper-sprayed seated protesters at close range on the University of California-Davis campus as other protesters chanted, "The whole word's watching" and "Shame on you." The video of the incident went viral. Lt. Pike was placed on paid leave from the force. An investigation, released in March 2012, called Lt. Pike's actions "objectively unreasonable." He remains on the force.
OWS and the online group Anonymous have called for peaceful protesters to occupy Chicago and other cities in a General Strike on May 1st. Prohibitions against strikes are contained in the 1947 Taft-Hartley Act. As The Nation reports, "a general strike in support of other workers is illegal." As a result, the action is being referred to by terms other than "strike." The basic idea, however, is to encourage workers--at least those who can, without suffering the consequences--to walk out of the workplace for the day. Protesters will continue to Occupy Chicago until May 20, when an estimated 7,500 officials from 80 nations and over 2,500 journalists will convene in the city for the NATO Summit. Protesters will also occupy the G8 Summit in Camp David, Maryland (pictured above), on May 18-19.

Hello Santiago!
I've detected left and right mouse click on column headers changes order. All programs uses left mouse click to change order and right mouse click to shown header menus.
To solve this I've made a little patch to detect this left mouse click. Also I did some cleaning of "FileListingHeader.java" because my IDE alerts "columnModel" is a defined variable (inside "JTableHeader").
Carlos SS
P.D.: With this modification we'll enabled to add a mouse column header menu in a nearly future.
Santiago Lizardo Oscares
Thanks Carlos; Patch to be delivered with the next version as usual.

The Price of Treating AIDS
THE HIGH COST of drugs and treatment for people with HIV/AIDS is a matter about which the Southern African Catholic Bishops' Conference (SACBC) is "gravely concerned." South Africa has approximately 1,500 new HIV infections daily. About 10 percent of the country's population of 43 million are affected by HIV/AIDS, according to Robert Shell, head of the population research unit at the East London campus of Rhodes University. South Africa's Department of Health says about 65 percent of all new infections are among young people between the ages of 15 and 25.
A month's supply of the antiviral drug AZT costs $80, while the more effective "cocktail" of a combination of three protease inhibitor drugs which suppress the spread of the HIV virus in the body costs about $334 a month--far beyond the reach of the majority of South Africans. Sixty percent of South Africa's population live on a monthly income ranging from $80 to $550, reports Molefe Tsele, director of the Ecumenical Service for Socio-Economic Transformation.
The statement from the bishops comes against the background of a legal tug-of-war between South Africa and the U.S. about the global pricing system of AIDS drugs. According to this system, drug companies have divided the world into different price zones, based on what the average middle-class patient can pay. Only about 5 percent of white South Africans are believed to be infected with HIV/AIDS, but their high average income has placed South Africa in the category of the rich countries that pay premium prices for the drugs.
South Africa's department of health has tried to break out of this pricing system, wanting to import drugs more cheaply from poorer countries which have been allocated a lower price. South Africa could also manufacture the drugs itself, but if it did so it would be forced under patent licensing protocols to set prices close to those of the developed world.
Bart Cox, coordinator of the HIV Programme of the Anglican Church in the Johannesburg archdiocese, said that in 1997 the South African government began the process of passing legislation to allow it to manufacture AIDS drugs and ignore patents. But local subsidiaries of U.S. pharmaceutical companies started legal action against the government. "The U.S. government meanwhile has withdrawn objections, but the local pharmaceutical companies only suspended their court action," Cox noted.
In its statement, which was released on September 22, the SACBC said it was "gravely concerned about the inordinate delay in making affordable drugs and treatment available to those infected with serious illnesses, in particular HIV/AIDS. …

WVU pitcher Musgrave a big shot in Big 12
College Football Videos
When he returned from Tommy John surgery, West Virginia sophomore Harrison Musgrave faced more than the uncertainty of recovering from a major injury. He also needed to impress his new coach.
Musgrave lost 10 pounds and cleaned up his mechanics. The turnaround resulted in one of the best individual starts in school history.
Musgrave is 7-1 with a 2.38 ERA this season. He's 4-0 in the Big 12 Conference (1.23 ERA in league play) and had complete-game shutouts in back-to-back starts before giving up two runs in seven innings Friday against Oklahoma. This ended a string of 27 1⁄3 consecutive scoreless innings for Musgrave.
Musgrave already been named Big 12 pitcher of the week three times —including the last two weeks in a row.
"Coming off Tommy John surgery, I'm surprised at what I've done so far," Musgrave said.
"He's been unbelievable," first-year WVU coach Randy Mazey said.
It was Mazey who challenged Musgrave following fall practice to get in better condition. Musgrave also needed to find ways to relieve stress on his arm after sitting out a year because of surgery.
"The coaches have been really positive and energetic," Musgrave said. "I love what they're doing. The whole team has bought in.''
No one more than Musgrave, who suffered tendon damage to his left elbow against Seton Hall during his freshman season in 2011.
Musgrave had started impressively with four wins, including a complete-game shutout against Georgetown.
Feeling a twinge in his elbow following a pitch, Musgrave attempted another throw that met with disastrous results.
"I heard a pop and pain went down my arm," he said.
Spending a year away from baseball didn't discourage Musgrave, but it did help him realize he needed to regain his competitive edge.
Receiving the message from Mazey, a successful associate head coach at TCU before taking over in Morgantown, motivated Musgrave to become a complete pitcher.
Once the weight came off, Musgrave's makeover included a new throwing motion.
"I had to find ways to take stress off my arm," said Musgrave, a three-time all-state performer at Bridgeport (W.Va.) High. "I realize I had to be doing something wrong to hurt myself, so I use my lower half more than I did before, to keep my arm from being sore."
Musgrave's first big test this year was at Big 12 powerhouse Texas on April 19. Musgrave beat the Longhorns, 1-0, striking out nine and allowing six hits with two walks.
"It was my biggest game on the biggest stage," said Musgrave.
The Mountaineers won two of three against Texas. Entering the season, WVU was picked to finish last in the Big 12 in a vote of league coaches. The Mountaineers are fourth in league play.
"You try to tell them no one particular game's bigger than another, but you come in this place with the storied tradition and shut this team out, it's really special," Mazey said.
Musgrave's complete-game shutout against Texas had a carryover effect against Kansas last weekend. Once again, Musgrave started the opening game of the series. Once again, Musgrave delivered.
Musgrave wasn't as dominant in WVU's identical 1-0 victory over Kansas, recording five strikeouts. However, his command of the game and control of his pitches was impeccable.
He allowed only four hits with one walk and retired Kansas in order in the first, second, fourth, fifth, sixth and ninth innings.
"Coming into the Big 12, it took people a while to realize we weren't going to be pushovers," Musgrave said. "It's a team game, but I've been able to pitch well, and we've played well as a team. We've just got to keep doing what we've been doing."

We moderate comments. Our goal is to provide substantive commentary for a general readership. By screening submissions, we provide a space where readers can share intelligent and informed commentary that enhances the quality of our news and information.
While most comments will be posted if they are on-topic and not abusive, moderating decisions are subjective. We will make them as carefully and consistently as we can. Because of the volume of reader comments, we cannot review individual moderation decisions with readers.
We value thoughtful comments representing a range of views that make their point quickly and politely. We make an effort to protect discussions from repeated comments either by the same reader or different readers.
We follow the same standards for taste as the daily newspaper. A few things we won't tolerate: personal attacks, obscenity, vulgarity, profanity (including expletives and letters followed by dashes), commercial promotion, impersonations, incoherence, proselytizing and SHOUTING. Don't include URLs to Web sites.
We do not edit comments. They are either approved or deleted. We reserve the right to edit a comment that is quoted or excerpted in an article. In this case, we may fix spelling and punctuation.
We welcome strong opinions and criticism of our work, but we don't want comments to become bogged down with discussions of our policies and we will moderate accordingly.
We appreciate it when readers and people quoted in articles or blog posts point out errors of fact or emphasis and will investigate all assertions. But these suggestions should be sent via e-mail. To avoid distracting other readers, we won't publish comments that suggest a correction. Instead, corrections will be made in a blog post or in an article.
