Marine Corps deploys civilian performers to ensure message gets out
The Marines in the Camp Pendleton base theater had been briefed on the topic repeatedly, according to the groans and hands that shot up when they were asked, "Who is sick of talking about sexual assault training?"
The Defense Department has bombarded them in recent years with information about the rising incidence of sexual assault among their ranks, and dedicated increasing resources to stop it.
But audience reaction to the uncomfortable scenes acted out last week during sexual assault training at Camp Pendleton and Marine Corps Air Station Miramar showed how far the military, and society at large, has yet to go.
"Sex Signals," a series of skits and guided discussions led by civilian actors from Catharsis Productions, also demonstrated that role-playing and blunt, bawdy talk make more memorable sexual assault training than slide shows.
During the hour and a half session, about 300 junior enlisted Marines seemed to agree on the definition of rape — sex without consent. The devil dogs were stumped, however, by details in the drama.
Blame game
In one scene, the presenters played two Marines on a date of sorts. As the action on stage and dialogue with the audience of real-life Marines unfolded, they exposed common misperceptions about sexual assault and how they benefit rapists, besmirch the reputation of everyone, and discourage victims from getting help.
Welcome to the game show "Not My Fault," where a nice, young corporal tries to explain why he is not to blame for hurting her, said Annie Rix, before assuming the role of "Amy," the "hot chick" on base.
Amy said she was raped in her barracks room. She struggled, but he pinned her down and wouldn't stop when she told him to.
George Zerante, playing "David," insisted: "What happened is really not my fault. I did have sex with her, but I did not rape her."
Amy and David had talked on the phone. They played pool one night. Another day she invited him to her room to "play some games."
He expected sex and brought beer. She fired up the Xbox video game console.
David, a big guy with a much higher tolerance for alcohol, plied her with drinks. Amy got drunk and lost control. Between rounds of tickling, playful wrestling and kissing, Amy kept saying no. Then yes. Then no.
After David started sexual intercourse, she whispered stop once, then went limp.
Was it rape? And if so, whose fault was it?
Most Marines in the audience said Amy was partly to blame for being raped because she gave him mixed signals and got too drunk.
Wrong, Zerante countered. Everyone is responsible for curbing risky behavior and safeguarding themselves, but "don't make excuses for rapists."
The appropriate penalty for getting too drunk might be vomiting, a hangover or "spending $72 at Taco Bell," Rix said. Never rape.
Some seemed skeptical, so Zerante asked if she could have gotten raped if she had warned him not to expect sex before coming to her room and "punched him in the face" if he tried. Yep.
Conclusion: Rape is a crime no one deserves, and the only one to blame for it is the rapist.
To ensure they aren't misreading sex signals, the trainers recommended using a "verbal condom" for protection: ask for consent first, and check in again if your partner becomes unresponsive.
That Marine who forced sex on another in the barracks or pulled rank to gain sexual favors "is just as bad as the monster in the dark alley," Zerante said.
The training using role-playing by professional actors introduced by the Navy Department several years ago seems to be particularly effective, but the impact is short-lived because of the high turnover of Marines.
It was easier to stay awake during Sex Signals, with its colorful language and hip-thrusting, tongue-wagging demonstrations, than for a PowerPoint presentation, Marines who participated said.
That is by design, according to Marco Justiniano, a Marine veteran and sexual assault response coordinator for Camp Pendleton. Humor "draws the Marines in," he said, and the improvisation "livens it up and is sometimes easier for people to understand and feel they are actively participating and learning with it."
A similar program called No More Zebras teaches Marines and sailors to look out for the vulnerable in their midst who could be picked off by a hungry "lion."
Among other changes, the military has also assigned more personnel to the prevention, investigation and adjudication of sexual assault.
Last year Camp Pendleton added a second sexual assault response coordinator, in addition to full-time uniformed victim advocates. And the Defense Department last week announced it would expand an Air Force pilot program across the services, assigning legal advocates for all sexual assault victims.
Yet the estimated prevalence of active duty troops subjected to unwanted sexual touching last year spiked 37 percent compared with 2010, according to Defense Department research. Some 26,000 troops are thought to have been victims, including those who kept it to themselves, according to the anonymous survey.
As the Mayor Bob Filner scandal shows, sexual assault and workplace harassment is not unique to the military. But the demographics of the armed forces, and possibly the unique stresses of military life, accentuate the problem.
Two Marines who attended the Camp Pendleton session mentioned the growing awareness of the role alcohol plays in most sexual assaults.
Cpl. Crystal Hopkins, a heavy equipment mechanic, said a civilian she is close to was sexually assaulted after "drinking way too much and a guy's taken advantage of them. They wake up and go, 'What just happened?' "
Because it is difficult to judge how much alcohol incapacitates another person, the military pushes a "one drop" approach against sex after alcohol, urging troops to save it for another day if either party has been drinking.
"With all these trainings, they drill it into you. Once you have one sip of alcohol, that's it," Hopkins said.
Lance Cpl. Cody Ferguson, a radar technician, said his heavy drinking was becoming problematic early in his Marine career, until he cut back because of his faith.
Military sexual assault training probably won't deter a serial rapist, but "I think focusing more on alcohol would help in some instances," he said.
Many of his friends "didn't realize you can't get consent with alcohol, because of the culture we live in kind of promotes that type of lifestyle where you just drink and hook up with people," he said.
The long, hard-drinking heritage of the sea services dating to the Marine Corps' founding in a bar compounds the problem, he conceded: "It's just how some people cope with extreme situations, unfortunately."
Bystander duty
The Marine Corps, which has the youngest force and the smallest proportion of females, had the highest rate of unwanted sexual contact last year, according to the Pentagon.
"Douchebag rapists like David are making us look bad. Most men aren't rapists," Zerante said. "The Marines, they brought us in here to get your help … and keep our community safe."
It is the duty of every service member to protect others from sexual assault, they are taught.
If someone gets out of hand, tell your buddy to stand down, call a bouncer, or ask a group of women to organize an immediate group bathroom break, they recommended.
Don't look the other way, the presenters said, crossing their arms and barricading their groin areas in a memorable closing move: "…-block it!" or "…-dam" it up.

Outside, the park offers a playground, softball/baseball diamonds, and basketball courts. Many of these spaces are available for rental including our ball fields. This park is adjacent to Jackie Robinson Little League, a CPS facility. Park-goers can participate in seasonal sports, cheerleading, dance. On the cultural side, Jackie Robinson Park offers ballet. After school programs are offered throughout the school year. During the summer, youth can participate in the Chicago Park District's popular six-week day camp. Specialty camps are offered in the summer as well, and include dance and sports camp. In addition to programs, Jackie Robinson Park hosts fun special events throughout the year for the entire family. History In the years following World War II, the Chicago Park District began a major effort to create new parks in rapidly-growing neighborhoods. As part of this initiative, a committee formed in 1946 with representatives of the Chicago Park District and Board of Education to determine how facilities could jointly serve as schools and parks. At that time, the Chicago Park District had identified dozens of sites for park expansion and 16 of them were adjacent to existing schools. The Joint Committee on School-Parks studied the 16 locations and made specific recommendations for additions to the school buildings, and improvements to the surrounding grounds including playgrounds, athletic fields, and passive landscape areas. The proposed improvements included club rooms and gymnasiums for use during afterschool hours and weekends. Mount Vernon Elementary School in Chicago's Washington Heights neighborhood was one of the initial 16 schools identified for the program. The park district began purchasing land adjacent to Mount Vernon School in 1946, and plans for the new School-Park were published in the Chicago Tribune in 1955. Two years later, the Chicago Park District and Board of Education completed the project. Both the park and the adjacent school were originally named Mount Vernon, for George Washington's Virginia home. In 1999, the Chicago Park District formally renamed the park in response to the Mount Vernon Park Advisory Council's suggestion that it should honor baseball great Jackie Robinson (1919-1972). When he signed with the Brooklyn Dodgers in 1947, Robinson became the first African-American to play major league baseball. He was voted "Rookie of the Year" for his part in Brooklyn's pennant-winning season. Two years later, he led the league in batting and stolen bases, and was named most valuable player. Jackie Robinson was elected to the Baseball Hall of Fame in 1962. In 1984, President Ronald Regan posthumously awarded Jackie Robinson the Presidential Medal of Freedom, the highest honor for a civilian who has contributed to the national interests of the United States of America.

Many forests in the southwestern U.S. are adapted to frequent, low-intensity fires. These forests are currently experiencing uncharacteristicly severe wildfire, insect, and disease episodes resulting in altered plant and animal demographics, reduced productivity and biodiversity, and impaired ecosystem functions. These disturbances are predicted to increase as future climates in the Southwest become warmer and dryer. This research aimed to develop a restoration framework for frequent-fire forests based on restoring the historical composition, structure, and spatial patterns of vegetation. Implementing the restoration framework is expected to improve the resiliency of frequent-fire forests by allowing natural ecosystem processes such as low-intenisty fire to resume. Restoring key elements may position frequent-fire forests throughout the western U.S. to better resist, respond, and adapt to future climates and disturbances.
Ponderosa pine and dry mixed-conifer forests in the Southwest United States are experiencing, or have become increasingly susceptible to large-scale severe wildfire, insect, and disease episodes resulting in altered plant and animal demographics, reduced productivity and biodiversity, and impaired ecosystem processes and functions. We present a management framework based on a synthesis of science on forest ecology and management, reference conditions, and lessons learned during implementations of our restoration framework. The framework focuses on the restoration of key elements similar to the historical composition and structure of vegetation in these forests: (1) species composition; (2) groups of trees; (3) scattered individual trees; (4) grass-forb-shrub interspaces; (5) snags, logs, and woody debris; and (6) variation in the arrangements of these elements in space and time. Our framework informs management strategies that can improve the resiliency of frequent-fire forests and facilitate the resumption of characteristic ecosystem processes and functions by restoring the composition, structure, and spatial patterns of vegetation. Restoration of key compositional and structural elements on a per-site basis will restore resiliency of frequent-fire forests in the Southwest, thereby position them to better adapt to future disturbances and climates.
Numerous implementations of the framework have been completed in the past 20 years in New Mexico and Arizona. Currently, the framework's key elements are being evaluated via LiDAR regarding their effects on biodiversity, food webs, and the long-term demographic performance of an apex predator (northern goshawk) on the Kaibab Plateau. One implementation, Eager South on the Apache-Sitgreaves National Forest, was hit by the 2011 Wallow Fire. The Eagar South WUI Fuel Reduction Project environmental assessment was finalized in 2006. The project area was chosen to be used as a demonstration to provide the framework for understanding historical conditions, ecological processes, and the natural range of forest conditions. These concepts form the basis for ecological strategies in restoring the integrity of ponderosa pine ecosystems within and outside the wildland-urban interface. A collaborative approach was used to develop thinning prescriptions that had no diameter cap and created leave tree groups (RMRS-GTR-217, RMRS-GTR-310). Tree groups were based on current conditions and not on a forestry standard spacing between individual trees, but between the collective group of trees. This approach created or maintained uneven-aged forest conditions (groups of trees each composed of different ages), valuable wildlife habitat, and met fuel reduction objectives. The Eagar south landscape is variable with the elevation on the south end at 8,600' dropping to the north to 7,100'. The vegetation is primarily ponderosa pine with mixed conifer on the north aspects and drainages and piñon/juniper woodland at the lower elevations. On June 7th the 2011 Wallow Fire made a push from the southwest into the Eagar South WUI first burning an untreated mixed conifer slope. The running crown fire hit the treatment full force, the blast of hot air caused mortality at the edge and into the treated area for a distance of up to 300'. However, the crown fire did not penetrate the treatment area. The subsequent ground fire that followed in the treatment area had variable flame lengths with moderate intensity. The fire spread was greatly reduced by the treatment area and the fire was stalled for several hours as it slowly progressed down slope (before and after treatment aerial photos, and before and after Wallow Fire photos are available).
This synthesis integrates recent research concerning socioecological resilience in the Sierra Nevada, southern Cascade Range, and Modoc Plateau. Among the focal topics are forest and fire ecology; soils; aquatic ecosystems; forest carnivores; air quality; and the social, economic, and cultural components of socioecological systems. A central theme is the importance of restoring key ecological processes to mitigate impacts of widespread stressors, including changes in climate, fire deficit and fuel accumulations, air pollution, and pathogens and invasive species.
Water stress represents a common mechanism for many of the primary disturbances affecting forests, and forest management needs to explicitly address the very large physiological demands that vegetation has for water. This study demonstrates how state-of-science ecohydrologic models can be used to explore how different management strategies might improve forest health.
Widespread threats to forests due to drought stress prompt re-thinking of priorities for water management on forest lands. In contrast to the widely held view that forest management should emphasize providing water for downstream uses, we argue that maintaining forest health in the face of environmental change may require focusing on the forests themselves and strategies to reduce their vulnerability to increasing water stress in the context of a changing climate. Management strategies would need to be tailored to specific landscapes but could include: a) thinning; 2) encouraging drought-tolerant species; 3) irrigation; and 4) strategies that make more water available to plants for transpiration. Hydrologic modeling reveals that specific management actions could reduce tree mortality due to drought stress. Adopting water conservation for vegetation as a priority for managing water on forest lands would represent a fundamental change in perspective and potentially involve tradeoffs with other downstream uses of water.

The Water Erosion Prediction Project (WEPP), is a physically-based soil erosion prediction technology. WEPP has a number of customized interfaces developed for common applications such as roads, managed forests, forests following wildfire, and rangelands. It also has a large database of cropland soils and vegetation scenarios. The WEPP model is a distributed parameter, continuous simulation model, and is able to describe a given erosion concern in great detail for an experienced user.
The WEPP model consists of multiple applications that can estimate erosion and sediment processes on hillslopes and small watersheds, taking into account climate, land use, site disturbances, vegetation, and soil properties.
Climate, fire and vegetation are closely linked in western ecosystems; this presentation discusses how climate change might affect vegetation by changing wildfire disturbance patterns.

That's a nice HDR effect - not over the top, cartoonish-look like some. You've got a good eye too. Well done.
I couldn't pull up the EXIF on this one, maybe because of the HDR processing? Anyway, what camera produced this nice image?

I don't like to use the term "holy grail" product, because it seems so over the top, however, this is as damn close to a holy grail product (to me) as it can get. I can't not have this lotion in my bathroom. I use this stuff everywhere at anytime of the year and it's yet to fail me. It leaves your skin moisturized and glowy but never oily. I even use it on my face at night and during the day when I'm feeling dry (usually in the winter as I have combo skin). It absorbs quickly, leaves skin heathy and moisturized for even the most sensitive skin. I try Nivea or Jergens every once and a while, but I ALWAYS come back to this.

This stuff has saved me! I remember using a different moisturizer before this one, it made my skin dry somehow.. But this one has never done that! It also last you A LONG time. All I need is about a dime size for my whole face. It doesn't smell weird & the packaging is average. Nothing amazing but nothing bad either.

Great stuff, been using it for years and have been meaning to leave a review.
I apply this every morning before I apply foundation. I love that it's fragrance free as well as being paraben free. So many lotions for your face contain fragrance and it's completely useless plus it irritates the skin. This is lightweight and hydrates well. I use it all over my body. Sometimes I put this on my face overnight if I'm dry, but that doesn't happen too often because I have oily skin. This does not cause breakouts for me. I love that it also doesn't irritate my legs even when putting on right after shaving.

I have oily-combination skin and wouldn't normally go for a product like this but this winter my face became extremely dry so I decided to get a more moisturising lotion. After hearing so many good reviews about cetaphil I decided this product was the way to go and boy was I wrong. This stuff gave me clusters of super painful pimples in places I've never had problems before (cheeks and chin) that I'm still battling to get rid of. My forehead became covered in tiny little bumps which I also can't get rid of. It's been almost two months since I used this and I still can't get my skin back to how it used to be. Will defiantly not be repurchasing.

-fragrance free
-very moisturizing
-very affordable and you get a very generous amount for the price. 11 dollars for 16 oz is great
-easy to find, walgreens, cvs, kmart, walmart, rite aid ect.
-clogged my pores and gave me some cystic breakouts on my cheeks. pretty painful and i'm still trying to get them cleared up
-it feels very greasy to me, i always feel like my pillow cases are sticking to my face and it doesn't feel like it absorbs into my skin. Dry or normal skins would probably love it, but my oily-combo skin didn't, even though this is meant for all skin types.
-i tried this one thinking it would be lighter than the daily advance moisturizer which was also too rich but i didn't find much of a difference between the two. I think they should make one for oily/acne prone people!
-doesnt do well under makeup. makes my foundation and primer very hard to blend and work with and I feel like my face got even oilier throughout the day.
All in all I won't be using this on my face ever again but I think it could work nicely as a body moisturizer. Cetaphil is supposed to be a good brand for problematic skin and my own dermatologist recommended it to be as well but this wasnt the right face moisturizer for me. I personally prefer Cerave's moistuzer over this one because it's lighter and not greasy. Everyone's skin is different so it might work for you but I wasn't too impressed.Sorry!

I have very oily, acne-prone skin. I decided to use this product due to the pharmacist at Boots preferring this over Vichy. I totally regret buying it! Broke me out after 2 days of using it. I got large cystic acne which stopped when I was on tertacyclin. My spots are large, red, hard and really painful :( Stopped using it immediately and just using homemade remedies to calm my poor skin....It leaves the skin feeling oily and heavy. Clogged my pores and too thick as a facial moisturiser. Wouldn't buy the product ever!

I get really bad eczema in the winter and summer when conditions can get extreme and this moisturizer works wonders for me. I buy the round tub of it and it lasts forever. Usually moisturizers make my eczema worse or don't help at all but this didn't irritate it and it gradually started to let up and now I can finally say I haven't struggled with it in a long time. I would definitely recommend this for someone with dry skin problems it's a great product.

I have combo/oily skin. I cannot use this product on my face because it makes me break out. So I use this for my dry patches on my body (elbows and knees).
I wouldn't repurchase this because I prefer other lotions for my body.
EDIT: I would repurchase this lotion to use for my body. The weather has been so goddamn hot in my state (Hawaii) and this lotion is awesome to use after the shower. It is non greasy and soaks into the skin quickly without feeling thick or slimy.

I love this lotion. It is affordable with a large amount of product that will last you a while and simple but it works very well. It keeps my body smooth, soft, and i've had dry bumps on my upper arms for years but after using this lotion, the bumps went away and my arms are left very smooth. It got greasy when i tried using it on my combination skin face but it works well on my body.

More On Legal & Compliancefrom The Advisor's Professional Library
- The New and Improved Form ADV Whether an RIA is describing its investment strategy in advertisements or in the new Form ADV Part 2, it is important the firm articulates material risks faced by advisory clients and avoids language that might be construed as a guarantee.
- Client Communication and Miscommunication RIA policies and procedures must specify what type of communications should be retained. The safest course of action is for RIAs to retain all communicationsto clients, from clients, and about client accounts. To comply with fiduciary obligations, communications must be thorough and not mislead.
The financial planning community and investor advocates are fighting a legislative amendment that's being circulated by Senator Tim Johnson (D-South Dakota) that would delete the requirement from pending financial reform legislation that brokers be held to the same fiduciary standard as registered investment advisors.
Johnson, a member of the Senate Banking Committee, is asking that the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) conduct a study "to determine appropriate obligations" of advisors and brokers, and then to issue a rule after such a study is completed.
Senator Christopher Dodd (D-Connecticut), chairman of the Senate Banking Committee, has said that he wants to have a financial services reform bill done by the end of February. The House bill as well as the discussion draft of Dodd's bill both require that a fiduciary duty be extended to brokers.
Jeff Gohringer, a spokesman for Senator Johnson's office, said in an e-mail to Investment Advisor that "Everyone agrees that we need to find a solution that puts an end to consumer confusion about the differences between broker/dealers and investment advisors." The Rand report, he continued, "outlined the confusion that exists on this, but it did not make policy recommendations. While it's still early in the process to be talking about final amendments, the Senator wants to make sure that whatever steps Congress and the SEC take moving forward is the right policy to protect consumers."
But Knut Rostad, the regulatory and compliance officer at Rembert Pendleton Jackson in Falls Church, Virginia, and chairman of The Committee for the Fiduciary Standard, says he and other committee members will be meeting with Senator Johnson's staff on February 19 to voice their concerns about the amendment. "It's incomprehensible" that "sixteen months after the financial system nearly collapsed, in part because Wall Street operated without transparency, [that] some believe we need to 'study' if we should increase advisor transparency and responsibility by extending the fiduciary standard," Rostad says. "This [fiduciary] battle isn't over; it's still very much in play."
Rostad adds that the Committee for the Fiduciary Standard (on which also sits Wealth Manager Web Editor Kate McBride) may also take its concerns about Senator Johnson's amendment to the airwaves soon via a national radio show that focuses on finance and investing.
Barbara Roper, director of investor protection at the Consumer Federation of America (CFA), says that CFA has drafted a letter to the Senate Banking Committee telling them that Senator Johnson's amendment "is not an acceptable alternative for investors for a variety of reasons." The confusion investors have about the regulatory differences between brokers and advisors "has been studied to death," Roper says, "the most recent being the Rand study, which was commissioned by the SEC because they knew investors were confused." After the Rand study was conducted, the SEC "concluded that we need a fiduciary duty for brokers." Another study as suggested by Senator Johnson, she says, "is a waste of time and money." With Senator Johnson's amendment, Roper adds, "We are very much at risk of losing one of the few provisions of the bill that directly benefits average investors."
Diahann Lassus, a spokesperson for the Financial Planning Coalition--which consists of the CFP Board, the Financial Planning Association (FPA), and the National Association of Personal Financial Advisors (NAPFA)--says the Coalition opposes Senator Johnson's amendment because it "slows down the [legislative] process by studying something that's been studied before."

You should have learned that the slope of a line is equal to tanŘ, where Ř is the angle that the line makes with the positive x-axis
for #1
slope of that line is 3/2
so tanŘ = 3/2
Ř = tan^-1 (3/2)
my calculator gave me appr. 56.3°
do the others the same way

9:00 - 10:01am EST
those troops in the crimea, because they fear in russia for safety of the russian people on the peninsula. >> is this a provocation of war? >> potentially this could be very dangers if this sends ukraine into a civil war. russian troops on the pennin pennines -- peninsula, there's concern about ethnic russian groups in the crimea, many holding a duel nationality. the russians are looking for ways to get involved in crimea. the ukrainians in the west do not want to sow that happen. >> al jazeera phil ittner live. thank you for being was this morning. >> president obama says he's deeply concerned by the situation. on friday he warned there would be costs for military
intervention. the u.s. officials say washington is consulting with its allies. those are the headlines. "consider this" is coming up next. in the meantime follow us online at aljazeera.com or on twitter. don't go anywhere, see you again at 11:00am eastern. blow? >> does it always deserve to be bad mouthed. lawless borders? patrols may not be going by the book. the oscars are here and why haven't the viewers seen the nominees? welcome to "consider this."
here's more on what's ahead. >> chaos in ukraine, russia is accused of sending forces into the area. >> we are deeply concerned about the movements of the russian federation. >> a group smuggles a camera and should the courts allow cameras in the courts all of the time? >> the red carpet is out and the count down is on. >> i can't recall a closer best picture race in decades. >> and the os core goes to... >> we begin with the cry i didn't say and reports of russian intervention in ukraine and the ukrainian leaders are
accusing russians for sending in forces. the men wouldn't answer questions and the military uniforms without identifying marks and the flights in and out of the region are cancelled and the air space the closed. russia denied it moved forces into ukraine and insisting it is not violating the sovereignty and the fleet are for security and permitted. meanwhile viktor yanukovich held a press conference in russia and blaming the fall from the regime on a coup. the president spoke to russia and they are going to hon tor
the sovereignty but the united states is deeply concerned about the russian movements in eukra e ukraine. >> the united states is standing with the international community confirming that are will be costs. >> we are going to kiev and nick schifrin and welcome to the show. russia is trying to provoke a military conflict and convened a meeting of the national security and defense council on friday night, what's the latest? is>> the latest they are still meeting and trying to decide what to do. to give a perspective here the recent operation or the training mission as putin put it that the russian military is going on the
ukraine an board has 130,000 troops. and the entire troops are 150 troops and that is why they are worried about what russia is doing. this government is 28, 29 hours old and the u.s. is desperate to face the challenges, political, economic that ukraine has but they are focussed on the south and crimea and the rhetoric is aggressive and the military can into the buildings and they are warning that the ukrainian military can go in and remove the troops. the ewe kranians are thinking
they are russians. they haven't proven they are willing to back up the words with any military action there. they don't have a lot of options there and obama is coming out strong and secretary kerry coming out strong and it is unclear what the ukrainian government can do other than pass resolutions and release the statements about the movements. >> the government buildings are in the control of those men. what is the response from regular people in kiev that you have spoken to? >> they are deeply concerned. i talked to the people and how they feel about crimea. but the people here do believe
that the government needs to defend crimea, but they are not identifying with them because they east to russia and the people here looking to the west to europe and they are part of the ukraine and the government has to defend the sovereignty and the territory and talking about putin this or that and not nice comments that the people are saying here, but they want to see the government stand up for itself and see the government actually say look we have to draw the line in the sand and that is what the they asked the former president, asking viktor yanukovich is stop looking to russia and look to europe and that is when he crossed the line. there is a sense here that they are watching, the people here are watching the government closely and it is unclear what they can do and a lot of people
are hoping that this d deescalate before getting worse. >> nick, thank you for joining us tonight. >> for now on the situation ukraine and russia's involvement in the crisis, i'm joined awilliam courtney, ambassador. also, joining us assistant professor of political science from baylor university. he wrote a book with former secretary of state rice. ambassad ambassador, what is russia trying to do? >> russia is testing the new government in kiev. i don't think russia wants to inprovide but they are dispatching troops in crimea.
russia lost east ukraine. so russia is in a defensive posture in some respects and pushing and testing the kiev government just the way it did the georgian government in august 2008 before russia invaded georgia. >> you are from western eukrain and what do you think that the russians are doing? >> you have to rep the political situation, ukraine is one of the weakest moments in history. the country is essentially bankrupt. the government, the ex-president left, russia refused to
recognize him as a leader. is a lot of reshuffling at the top in the armed forces and just recently, yesterday, the new leader, the new prime minister elected in crimea and the leader of the russian unity block and pro-russian political force and holding a rev referendum in may and what we could be seeing and this is a military inseeing and we are seeing the force. >> sir, there are reports that the troops are not just at the airports but moving to the northern ukraine and are they positioning to cut the peninsula off? >> that is possible as well. but we have to remember that
ukraine and formed forces have a number of bases in ukraine. there is a coastal guard. there are at least 40 tanks belonging to the ukrainian armed forces and even if they close it out or block the access from the air they have to deal with the ukraine armed forces there in crimea. >> president obama warned the leaders that will would be costs, but isn't that a fuzzy threat and what does that mean to putin? >> it is meant not to be too specific, rather some of the costs would depend on how bad the russians actions for. for example, if russian troops make an out and out effort to seize control we would see
u.s. sanctions and european sanctions against russia and russia's leadership, perhaps freezing of assets. if on the other hand an it is low level testing and that is where we are now, and the troops don'ted have the russian insignia on them, and so it is looking like moscow is trying to hedge a bet there. >> what you said worries me, and the sanctions against the russian leadership is making you feel like the cold war is back. >> president putin moved russia in a back ward direction and more and more authority and dick toirl arrangement. in 2008, with invasion of georgia, if they perceive that the neighbor is weak and strategic area on the eastern black seacoast, russia may try to do something here.
but i think mostly it is through bluster and intimidation, but not out and out invasion. >> president obama is saying that the violations of the sovereignty could destabilize the country and not in anyone's interest, but couldn't it be russia's interest? >> well, there are certainly reasons strategic reasons why russia may be interested in taking control over crimea, one of the issues is the black sea fleet. the lease is extended by the previous president, president viktor yanukovich for another 25 years and that is something that the new government is not recognizing and they want to end the lease in 2017 and make russia withdraw is black sea fleet.
second issue is the issue of the nato member. the status could be reversed by the new authorities and restart the negotiations on the membership action plan for nato and if russia creates a new state and claim stature it is harder for ukraine to be a member of nato and those could be the two strategic efforts. >> anything that the u.s. can do to calm this down? >> well, what i think that president obama has done today is a very strong statement and unscheduled press conference, that is quite unusual. the chancellor in germany is forceful as well. i think that the main message is avoid provocations and the
ukrainian government shouldn't do what georgia government did and respond with force of its own. russia would like that. whieth now it is black and white and clearly russian aggression. >> certainly the rhetoric is ramped on both of the sides. senator mccain accused of empire building by putin. it is a pleasure having you both on the show. >> thank you. >> turning from the ukraine to the world's youngest country south sudan and what is going on there is horrific. carlos with doctors without borders says i can find no words to describe the
brutality. war crimes are being committed. colonel a peace keeper said there is no humanity here. and in the words of the u.n.'s there's nothing there but dead bodies. the fighting left it all by di serted with hundreds of stores and building burned to the ground and the corpse are left in the streets. fighting broke out in south sudan last december by the forces loyal to the president. and while cease fire was demanded but a clear pattern of killings based on et nicety
continues. u.s. senior adviser joins us and eric, a smith college professor and author. it is good for you to be with us. eric, what are you hearing what is going on in south sudan? >> we have similar reports from bore and others, and what we have to worry is about what human rights watch said is occurring, it is reprizal. what this is doing is displacing people. there are fewer than one
million people displaced. how are we going to get it is to them and provide safe haven and doing that before the rainy season in may. >> this country has oil and 90% of the people survive on less than a dollar a day. a cease fire was declared in january and why isn't that helping? >> it was a fragile decision from the very beginning. it is unclear that the forces are under unified command and no political process laid out that would lead the leaders to stop the fighting over territories and strategic locations and more needs to be done just to start the peace process and the group dealing with this has to step up backed by the u.n., backed by
the african union. >> eric, isn't that part of the the point, this country is incredibly divided and all sorts of fighting. there is one tribe with a million people and all sorts of tribes and 60 languages where the country and how do you unify a place like that? >> well, the fighting has a precedent in the years between 2005 and this past december 15th. there's certainly built up political anger and in many cases well justified and the governance issues have to come to the forefront and those detained are pushing for that. the former vice president is not really representative i don't believe of the
opposition in sudan and the sooner we stop talking about rebels level to the president and saying there is epic dimension to this and political dimension and powerful opposition to the president. >> ambassador, is oil part of the issue here? it has substantial reserves of oil. a lot of violence in the oil rich areas and the oil production is crashed and that means a poor country the getting poorer. >> it is not the source of the conflict. it broke out over the political problems and running the country. but the control of the oil area becomes a strategic objective for each side. south sudan 98% of the budget
comes from oil. so by those opposed taking over and destroying the source of oil also destroys the source of income. so now it is becoming a matter of concern, it is not at the root of the problem. >> eric, what has to be done? u.n. is there on the ground and human rights groups are there and doctors without borders and people trying to help out are attacked and what can the international community do? >> well, the u.n. authorized mixes in sudan. it is deploying at a terrifying slow pace. unless we increase the amount of secure area that civilians can retreat to and receive aid in we are going to have a
disaster in the rainy season. we need more boots on the grounds, more logistics and transport and better communication. they are not supplying the security that is essential for the displaced people. >> ambassador, you wrote in january is report for the united states institute of peace you said that the crisis and opportunity to put south sudan back on the path of good government and peace, how can that be done, does the u.s. need to play a role? >> u.s. has to play a role and the u.n. and the europeans to get that started. unless you get at those fundamental problems on how the country the governed you are not going to stop this conflict and that takes a
strong demand from the international community and that such a process is underway and independent awe piss and not under the control of their president and taking at least two years to do and you have to have a combination of reenforced security and a demand for a political process and the africans can't do that alone, they need the backing of the u.s. and the british and others and a very strong backing from the u.n. security council. >> because it is a growing humanitarian crisis that could be getting horribly worse. thank you both for joining us tonight. >> coming up, outburst caught on a hidden camera and raising the questions of cameras in the supreme court. >> during black history month we hear about martin luther
king junior and rosa parks and we asked you who you think is under celebrated black history. leave us a comment on facebook or twitter. leave a comment on our facebook
>> unless you're one of the lucky americans who has gotten a >> unless you are one of the lucky americans and getting a seat in the u.s. supreme court you don't see what the proceedings are like, until today, someone sneaking a video camera in the courtroom and posted the footage to
youtube. should america's highest court join us in the 21st century or rooted in the past. we are joined by a professor of law in chicago and he had the job of clerking for supreme court justice william brennan and nice to see you and you are the perfect person to talk about this. some of the courtrooms allow the cam cameras in the courtrooms. o there is a disagreement between the courts and the judges whether it is productive. what bringing cameras into a proceeding like this can do the distorte the way that people behaves. i have had this when testifying before the congressional committee that
is a closed proceeding and no cameras and the senators and congressman behave in a thought way and when the cameras are on they posture and play to the constituents. so i think it is important to understand when you bring the hearings into a serious procedure that is not good. >> we saw the extremes of that in the oj simpson case and anna nicole snit things in florida, but the really p reality the head of the chief justice in ohio and she's said she's had no problems at all with grand standing there and they have all televised. >> i suspect few people are interested in the supreme court proceedings in the state of ohio. >> and just two glimpses of
the supreme court and back to the 30s and a couple of black and white still pictures, don't we want to learn more? this is so important of what is going on there. >> the justices write opinions and explaining everything they are doing. that is transparent and there are the audio recordings and you can listen to them. i rather guess very people do, the truth is they are not available in terms of the substance for the ordinary person. they are complex and technical and precedence and not discussions between ordinary people and most people that turn them would turn them off quickly. the other factor, the justices themselves are concerned that the media are not necessarily
even handed and neutral and responsible in the way they would deal with the material and they would look for the material and the awkwardness and embarrassment. they appear on dignity and independence to exercise authority. the sense of the inma si that the cameras would bring endangers the capacity of the courts as not seen as part of the political process, because they are not part of the political process. >> one of the big issues is they would be made fun of and so on. >> i would be in favor of the justices trying it for an
experiment and allowing an oral argument to be broadcast and see how that goes. that is what they did with the oral recording and that works okay and now allowing all of the oral arguments to be recorded. i am in favor of them trying this experiment and seeing how that work and should it be allowed. >> it is easier to follow if we watched them. we'll look at an ad for court transparency. >> impacting the lives of americans everywhere and only a privileged few see the justices in action. we support a simple fix, putting cameras in the supreme court. >> the polls show that most americans think that the cameras should be in there.
do you think that will change? >> i think gradually they'll move in that direction. what they are doing there is serious business and they don't want to see that distorted in a way that undermines the ability to do their jobs well and the capacity of the supreme court to act effectively. >> i would watch if they put them on. i hope that happens. >> and you would turn it off after ten minutes. >> well, maybe not, i am a lawyer as you are. >> thank you. >> turning to the southern frontier, the patrol officers taking the law into their on hands? they found the agents may be
using excessive force by shooting. the report recommends that the agency ban those tactics and criticizing the poor recordkeeping and the agency discarded the report's findings and refused to change the policies. we are bringing the co-chair of the southern border coalition and alliance san diego. does this report match what you have heard from the communities along the border and the abuses by the border patrol officers.>> yes we do. we have been tracking the abuses and 28 people have been killed by border patrol, many of them without justification. >> the arizona republic says over 200 people killed. what kind of abuses are the
ones that you are seeing? >> well, we are tracking the most agree gous, the killing and the serious harm and unfortunately they are happening not only to migrants and u.s. citizens, of the 28, one third are u.s. citizens. >> o what are is circumstances? >> well, for example, here where i live in san diego, u.s. citizen mother of five was in an area not far from where i live and visiting a friend, a border agent was in the area serving a warrant and he asked her to stop and she was in a vehicle and asked her to stop and she did not recognize him, he was in plain clothes and she attempted to drive away and she was not a person of interest for him and
he jumped in front of her car and shot her nine times dead. leaving behind five u.s. citizen children. >> on the other hand the agency argues that the job that this border patrol is doing the very dangerous and working in remote areas and no back up and if not able to shot that puts the agents at risk, don't they have a point? >> border patrol is a law enforcement agency, it is not a branch of the military. that is echoed by the secretary of the homeland security in the public address two weeks. so as a law enforcement agency it needs to conform to the practices of any police
department. >> that is one of the criticisms of the agency, they have rules and policies that are different from most of the police forces, in fact, it said it is not releasing the names of the officers involved in the shootings and lacks public oversight and little recordkeeping and despite the criticism, the anth si rejected the recommendations and not going to follow the recommendations and tried to keep the report from going public. >> this is right, it is a policing expert agency and they conducted the audit and revered as the expects on policing. the agency recommended to the border control that they don't entirely complete the
shooting, but limit the shoots to where the agents are in threat of harm or death. now that is standard policing practice and what the border patrol is saying they are not going to abide by that recommendation and that is reasonable restriction on the use of force. in the policing word you can only use the lethal force when in a threat of harm or death and what they are finding is that the agencies are intentionally putting themselves in front of a vehicle to justify shooting at the vehicle. >> well, people throwing rocks at them over the border fences and in those cases, even though they end shooting into mexico, would those cases qualify thr them to defend themselves? >> again, the recommendation is not they never use lethal
force but restrict it to the situations when they are harmed or threat of death. the findings are indicating that the agencies are shooting at people out of frustration. imagine if a police officer shooted into the public, into a crowd out of frustration, we would crazy. that's just not acceptable behavior. extraordinary power comes with extraordinary responsibility. we demand the same powers that the police have and not above and beyond that. they are not above the law. they have to conform to the law. thank you for joining us to talk about this important topic. thank you. >> time now to see what is trending on the website.
>> as february is coming to a close, we wanted to spotlight those contributing to black history and are not recognized. on twitter we asked you this, it is black history month and who is under celebrated hero? and some of answer are angela davis that reformed the prison system. lindsey parsons. and newton, cofounder of the black panther party. and julia bond. others tweeted about every day people and are making a difference. my colleague at ucla and my father for being there for his
children. thanks to all of you for joining in on the conversation. read more at our website. back to you. >> a couple of suggestions there. >> jen ri fi kags is seen as displacing poor people. a report on the roads and bridges and the next bridge you drive over could be lost past due for repairs. the oscars are here and how much of america saw the nominated films? when we talk about the use that have rhetoric and the crossing of the line, but we could go back to russian in its newell >> breaking news in the crisis in ukraine. putin is asking to use the
russian military in crimea. the troops are arriving to the region since friday and it is trying to protect the pro russian people already there. for the new government in kiev they are calling it an illegal invasion. phil, is this a provocation of war? >> well, we have a lot of fast moving events going on here. as far as a provocation maybe the ukrainians in the west are seeing it that but certainly the russians are seeing it that way. we have heard official text is made available to us, putin is appealing to the upper houses of the russian parliament, the federal council, he said that due to situation in ukraine and threatening the lives, the
personnel of the armed forces of the russian federation should be used in ukraine and then he quotes articles within the russian constitution. we do know that the federation council is about to vote on this here in moscow. there needs to be a clear majority. putin has sent one of his deputy foreign ministers to represent him in the council and if they do vote on this in a positive, they will need to present a statement and then send this back to the president within two days. a lot of legal ease going on and maneuvering within the political sphere in moscow and what it is coming down to the russians say that the instability in crimea and threatening their dual citizens and ethnic russians not the mention of course that sea port is driving this and
they want to make sure that the peninsula remains in control. they are using a lot of legislative language here and things are movering quickly in moscow on this saturday and we'll see how the vote goes any moment really, morgan. >> phil, before you go, you sent us an email and showing that the russian foreign ministry sent out a statement and saying they are within the laws and are they right having the troops there? >> they have agreements with ukraine and it is gray and into the legislative language and the legal ease we have discussed. some people will interpret is laws differently and what we are seeing is clearly putin
trying to find a frame work within the written word and the agreements already signed to find a reason to send troops into crimea. morgan? >> phil, we want to show the viewers a live view of moscow with the parliament is meeting and discussing this right now. we are certainly going to keep your posted. thank you, phil. >> now, now to libby casey from washington, president obama is waking up to a whole new situation and are we hearing reactions from the white house? >> we have not yet. this is just the episode that president obama was hoping to avoid. we are seeing the escalation in president putin's agreement and wanting to use force. getting the authorization is different than sending in the troops.
this could be a tactical move by president putin and the white house was hoping this wouldn't happen. president obama put out a warning there would be costs if russia intervenes militarily. >> we are standing with them and there will be costs if russia intervenes. >> he's sending a warning essentially and the costs can be economical costs. as pointed out, there is a russian presence in crimea. the question is would they actually send in troops and have the troops there activated in a real display of military force and it is an important region for russia. the black sea fleet is there.
president obama is certainly watching this closely as well. we are waiting for the white house to respond later on this morning, morgan. >> you said authorization on putin's part doesn't mean action, so when we talk president obama talking about the costs, give us a sense of the time line, when western europe or president obama would collect on the costs. >> it is dangerous to put out the time lines because they have to follow through. if president obama put a line in the sand, something they have done on other issues, like syria and then crossing that, say president putin crosses that, that would be unnecessary escalation. there are moments ahead, the opportunities for the white house to pull out of summits, to withhold funding and we are watching to see if the white house gives a sense of a time
line today. >> besides pulling out the summits, what are the options that president obama has at this point? >> that is what the white house is grappling with as well as the state department. the economic picture is a forceful weapon they can do without using the military force. the american public has no interest in putting boots on the ground there. we are watching the white house and talking about sanctions, economic issues, that will be the first volly they can send and then watch from there. the u.s. is saying they are not going alone, working with the members of the eu and the and we are watching the white house trying to work not just as a lone country but with partners at this moment. you can bet there are efforts
to get other countries to speak out as well. >> thank you, libby, always a pleasure to have you. >> now the jennifer glasse in crimea where the russian troops would be used. you heard the importance of crimea to the russian military and are you seeing movement there today? >> we have. we have seen troops comes to the parliament here. but they have no insignia and they are the same taking over the airport here and the air space is closed until at least this evening and the same forces moving into the airport an hour down the road we have reports 80 miles east of here, a very, very small ukrainian
marine base, 45, 50 marines are based there, and russian license plates vehicles rolled in there and and more military vehicles are on the road. no russian markings on them yet. we are hearing reports that bases in the west and another wall street base in the east are also surrounded by the forces. so definitely a sense that things are moving forward here. >> jennifer, you mentioned the regaining of control, in the continued tug of war, is this is a significant turning point for the viktor yanukovich supporters? >> yes, he's not the super issue. we do see pro russian supporters making moves, not just heard, we hear the chants russia and russia and they are
encouraged on what they are seeing with the people coming in and they are supported but also the russian military exercises in russia's west on ukraine's border and saying that shows that russia is behind them and they say the majority of the people, 60% of the people here soerassociated with russia and they are looking to kiev and are nervous and they believe that that new government are bandits and fascists and no power here and so we have seen the crimea prime minister take over the police and take over the arm and saying he's protecting the country here. one of the dangers is that kiev is not recognizing him any more and that means a break down with the communications and making things more complicated. >> jennifer, they are looking to kiev nervously and looking
like an antigovernment protesters in kiev had the upper hand. viktor yanukovich on the run. is this showing they can't take the progress for granted and it is not necessarily a win. >> yeah, that is absolutely true, morgan. the new government in kiev has a lot of challenges. the east is looking to russia for industrial reasons and for culture reasons. so too crimea for culture reasons and the black sea fleet, russia has a military interest here. the black fleet an hour from here and 15,000 forces there on their bases and russia wants to protect its interesting, interest in the military and the ethnic russians here. it is a very, very complicated time for a brand new government in kiev and
balancing all of this. things are moving quickly. a brand new prime minister and parliament and new elections and referendums on crimea coming up. >> in fact, jennifer, things are moving so quickly, we are turning to phil with updates, phil, what are you hearing there on the ground? >> here in moscow, we are hearing, they are saying what they are trying to do, trying to avoid in crimea is a repeat of the battle in kiev. they urge on-lookers to remember the hundreds of dead in kiev. that is what they are tried to
avoid in crimea. that is in essence the motivation here if they don't intervene in crimea there is a fear there will be further con flight between the various factions. that just within the last few moments here coming from the russian foreign ministry. >> phil, how are they avoiding the battle of kiev and now calling for force? >> that is absolutely right, it has to be looked at from the various perspectives whether coming from kiev or moscow, everybody is saying what they are trying to avoid the conflict but they are apparently trying to keep order and peace by putting in the forces or apply political pressure or what have you. what we have here clearly is a divide between the perspectives with the east and the west and both saying they
don't want to see an unstable ukraine and saying that the answer for that is taking a strong stand and clearly they are trying to put forward a reason for this potential intervention in crime crimea and what they are trying to avoid the bloodshed by putting in the troops and take that for a face value and whatever behind that motivation we'll have to see. morgan? >> thank you, phil, joining us live from moscow, thanks for being with us. >> now the kiev where nick schifrin is. do you think they are going to move to defend the territories? >> what we are hearing is a lot of parliamentary resolutions and no action.
this government is 48 hours old. they have huge political challenges. they have huge complik economic challenges. this country is just months away from default. to put it mildly they disagree with the russian foreign ministry statements. the people here, in the kradel of the revolution, argues that russia is taking the ukrainian territory. crimea is independent but it is part of ukraine. from the government's perspective from this new government's perspective it needs to defend the territory. it is much too young to do that and the military, the chief of the military just removed 36 hours a go and yes,
the rhetoric subjects that the ukrainian government wants to defend itself militarily if all of the troops are in fact russian troops and there is no evidence that is going to happen and no evidence of that happening and they are turning to the west and asking if the security council help and we are hearing the statements from president obama and calling for a quick press conference at 5:00 p.m. on a friday and making the point that the international community is trying to back this very new government. >> nick, going back to something you said, look, this government is 48 hours old, that my mind boggling and you are getting a sense on the ground in kiev that they are confident that the new government will face the new challenges and is their leadership established enough to file in the ranks and confront the challenges that are unfolding?
is>> it is hard to judge the level of the establishments because the people in independence square installed the government. the night before the government elected, quote unquote, they were paraded in front of the people and giving a thumbs up or thumbs down and they are established among the pro western crowd in kiev and pro western crowd and not for the full country and not confronting this by themselves in crimea. >> we have new information that ukraine's acting president called an american meeting of his chiefs. >> joining professor of political science at fordham university and specializing in eastern europe and the former soviet union. professor, this is now an act of war? >> certainly putin wants to
have a war in ukraine and he's tried to, he hoped it would happen on a number of occasions. the russian government counted on hard that the citizens from the western part of the country would fight the people from the eastern part of the country and that didn't happen. we saw the russian navy and the ukrainian mill taur just observing the situation there and now taking another step to provoke violence. >> now speaking of taking a step, president obama is saying look there are costs if you use the military and what is president obama's next action, quickly. >> certainly in the near future the president should put more pressure through the
diplomatic means on russia and from using the military forces, but in the long term what the united states can do along with western powers, especially with the european union is to strangle the russian economy and -- >> strangle the russian economy? >> yes, if people don't buy their oil, they collapse. >> thank you so much. professor of political science at fordham. stay with al jazeera america throughout the day on the latest on the situation in ukraine. follow us online or twitter at ajam. we have the latest for you on the moving situation. for now i'm morgan radford don't go any where.
>> there's no such thing as illegal immigration. >> al jazeera america presents... a breakthrough television event borderland a first hand view at the crisis on the border. >> how can i not be affected by it? >> strangers, with different points of view take a closer look at the ongoing conflict alex, a liberal artist from new york and randy, a conservative vet from illinois... >> are you telling me that it's ok to just let them all run into the united states? >> you don't have a right to make judgements about it... >> they re-trace the steps of myra, a woman desparately trying to reunite with her family. >> to discover, and one of their children perish in the process, i don't know how to deal with that. >> will they come together in the face of tradgedy? >> why her? it's insane. >> experience illegal immigration up close, and
personal. >> the only way to find out is to see it yourselves... >> on... borderland only on al jazeera america >> this is the real deal man... >> hello and welcome to the news hour live from doha. we have your top stories. soldiers and armed men on the streets of crimea has the russian president asking parliament for permission to send troops to ukraine. >> we're in london with more on the crisis in the crimea. and british guantanamo bay detainee

"Twelve Apostles, pure magic" Port Campbell Things to Do Tip by Waxbag
Port Campbell Things to Do: 77 reviews and 186 photos
This section of the Great Ocean Road is the most photographed and visited. Here the unrelenting sea has battered the ancient limestone coast leaving a spectacular series of rock stacks, known as the Twelve Apostles. Currently, however, there are only six Apostles which is a testament to the process of erosion and undercutting that is ongoing and that we are absolutely assured of loosing more in the future (the last to fall was in 2005). New Apostles are also probable and the undercutting of the large promontory, from which platform number two stands, is bound to be the next addition. Visit the Apostles any time of day but especially coordinate your schedule for a sunrise or sunset viewing as it is absolutely magical, weather permitting. The Apostles are easily accessible from the Great Ocean Road where one can find plenty of accommodation and restaurants in Port Cambell just 15kms away. There is also a B&B 5km inland of the welcome center called the "Twelve Apostles Motel and Country Retreat". The woman who runs it is friendly and offers country style cooking from her kitchen.
