Weekly Notes: legal news from ICLR – 24 October 2014
Posted on 24th Oct 2014 in Weekly Notes
This week's selection of legal stories from home and abroad includes ideas for putting more cameras in court and fewer lawyers, and some really terrible tales about injustice under legal systems less benign than our own. Please note that puns cost nothing extra and are employed solely to grab attention for a worthy topic.

MoJ pays LiP service to needs of unaided litigants
Litigants in person to be helped by unpaid volunteers under scheme funded by Ministry of Justice in lieu of qualified, regulated, publicly funded lawyers
It's tempting to suggest that the left hand does not know what the right is up to; but it's more a case of robbing Peter (quite a lot) to pay Paul (rather little). So, on the one hand, the MoJ slashes legal aid with the result that many litigants cannot get access to a lawyer, or Parliament (under the Legal Aid, Sentencing and Punishment of Offenders Act 2012, or LASPO) excludes them from the categories of those who can access what little might still be available; then, on the other, up pops family justice minister Simon Hughes MP with news this week of a wizard scheme to help "litigants in person" (ie those representing themselves in court, mainly through want of access to a pubicly funded lawyer) by providing in-court advice centres populated by law students and retired volunteers.
There will be a £600,000 set-up cost, and the scheme will be funded annually to the tune of £1.4m, which is a drop in the ocean compared to the £279m cuts planned to result from the coming into force, from April 2013, of LASPO.
Number crunching:
- Annual amount of planned civil legal cuts under LASPO: £279m.
- Annual amount now pledged for in-court advice centres: £1.4m.
Aside from the meagreness of the funding, will it actually help? Family lawyer Marilyn Stowe on her blog thinks not only that it won't help but it will actually make things worse:
Since the Legal Aid, Sentencing and Punishment of Offenders Act (LASPO) was passed last year, legal aid for private family law cases has all but disappeared. The idea was to encourage more people to resolve their disputes outside of the courts but, in practice, it has caused a significant rise in the number of litigants in person.
Mr Hughes' solution is a network of advice centres which will be staffed by student volunteers. How is that helpful? What skills or experience do young graduates have in law, negotiation, practice and procedure?
Students are in no position to give legal advice. This is especially true in divorce cases. What kind of reassurance will they be able to offer sometimes much more mature adults who are going through one of the most traumatic periods in their life?
I wonder if Mr Hughes has considered what impact this will this have on the volunteers. Are they really equipped to deal with the kinds of emotional outbursts that are common in these kinds of cases?
Quite frankly, the whole thing is a recipe for pandemonium.
A serious question that needs to be asked is how such an ad-hoc volunteer-based system can be regulated. The Legal Services Board has a mandate to supervise the regulation of all the legal professions in a customer-centric outcomes-focused sort of way (I'm para-jargoning here) and this has resulted in some very stringent regulation by the individual regulators (BSB, SRA, CILex) down whose necks the LSB breathes. Typical of this is the Quality Assurance Scheme for (criminal) Advocates (QASA), which has had a bumpy ride but recently passed its judicial review re-sit. But then the LSB by way of its Consumer Panel gave a green light to the somewhat oxymoronic idea of professional McKenzie friends, who may belong to an association but will not be formally regulated, have in most cases no qualifications, or for some reason cannot or will not practice the profession for which they've been trained, and may at the judge's discretion even be given a right of audience. So there's a glaring contradiction, to put it politely, which bodes ill both for the professions and for the public who need timely, reliable legal advice from people properly qualified to give it.
NB I say this without in any way denigrating the good will and integrity of the volunteers who selflessly give up their time and what expertise they have to help those unfortunate enough not to be able to fund their own legal advice and representation. (ICLR does support some pro bono organisations.)
Cameras in Court: the Lex Factor (contd.)
Judges disagree over benefits but DPP in favour
Alison Saunders, the Director of Public Prosecutions, has added her voice to those calling for more televising of court proceedings, while senior judiciary remain divided over the idea. Speaking at an event held by the Howard League for Penal Reform at the offices of the law firm Clifford Chance, Saunders was quoted by The Times as having said:
Open justice is about letting the public see justice being done and I can see real benefits of trialling cameras in criminal courts, as long as the right protections and safeguards are in place. The CPS has done a lot in recent years to make criminal trials more accessible to the public, releasing material through the media where we can, while of course giving paramount consideration to the victims and witnesses involved, and I think a similar approach would be needed here.
Discussion has been fuelled by the intense attention on the trial of Oscar Pistorius in South Africa (see below), which resumed again in the last fortnight to determine the issue of sentencing.
According to the Times,
Lord Dyson MR, head of civil justice in England and Wales, has said that he was "not opposed" provided judges retained a discretion in appropriate cases to "say no"… Lord Neuberger of Abbotsbury, president of the UK Supreme Court, has come out in favour; but the lord chief justice, Lord Thomas of Cwmgiedd, has expressed strong concerns and ordered a report on the broadcasting of the Pistorius trial.
Speaking before a Lords Constitution Committee in May, he said:
Before we go too much farther down the line, the Pistorius trial has troubled me and I would like to think and see where we are going before I would agree to go much farther."
Law and injustice around the globe
How baad can it get?
The practice known as baad, in which young girls are traded between families to resolve disputes, though illegal, is still widely practiced, especially in remote areas of Afghanistan.
A video entitled To Kill a Sparrow, presented by the New York Times, tells the story of one such bride, Soheila, now 24, who was bartered away at the age of 5 to settle a family feud started when her half-brother eloped with a woman who had been betrothed to his cousin. Once of legal age, 16, Soheila was to become the fourth wife of the aggrieved cousin, by now an elderly man.
"To Kill a Sparrow," is a half-hour documentary by the Iranian filmmaker Zohreh Soleimani that shows Soheila's long struggle to escape the destiny her father had intended for her. Much of it shows her life in a women's shelter run in Kabul by Women for Afghan Women, where she effecively grew up after running away, with the help of her half-brother, who, nevertheless, has apparently sold his own daughter (at three days old) into the same kind of sexual slavery. She, too, has run away.
As the film-maker comments, "in some ways [this] is the story of all women in Afghanistan".

Journalists and students still being detained
It's been 300 days since three Al-Jazeera journalists, Peter Greste, Mohamed Fahmy and Baher Mohammed, were jailed in Egypt, just for doing their job. An appeal is due to be heard early next year.
They were convicted on charges of airing false news and coordinating with the Muslim Brotherhood, but if these charges have a trumped-up sound that's echoed in the fate of others subjected to what seems to be a highly partial and repressive legal system.
Human Rights Watch reports that more than 110 university students have been arrested since the start of the school year on October 11, 2014. The arrests and subsequent action appear to be solely directed at the students' peaceful exercise of the right to free assembly.
Most of those arrested apparently had participated in protests calling for academic freedom and the release of previously detained students, as well as expressing opposition to president Abdel Fattah al-Sisi, the former defense minister who supplanted the elected president Mohammed Morsi in a military coup in 2013.
Here is a satirical take (right) on the latest Egyptian board games craze:
French journalists jailed
Egypt is by no means the only jurisdiction in which journalists appear to be being jailed just for doing their jobs. In Indonesia, two French journalists, Thomas Dandois and Valentine Bourrat, have been tried in the easternmost province of Papua, for offences of "abusive use of entry visas." Though they will be freed on Monday, having been detained since 6 August, their arrest and conviction reflects the Indonesian government's willingness to steamroll journalists' rights in order to keep foreign media from reporting from Papua, says Human Rights Watch.
Human rights lawyer barred from practice
Middle East Eye reports that Award-winning Iranian human rights lawyer Nasrin Sotoudeh has been barred from practising for three years and will hold a protest against the decision this week.
Sotoudeh was released from jail last year when halfway through a six-year sentence for "actions against national security and committing propaganda against the regime". Her release came shortly before Iran's then newly elected President Hassan Rouhani attended the UN General Assembly in New York.
The Iranian court's ruling (apparently contradicting an earlier ruling permitting her to resume practice following her release) is seen as opening the way for the disqualification of other rights lawyers amid mounting criticism of the county's judiciary.
Kenyan President Uhuru Kenyatta is facing war crimes charges in the Hague
But in a breathtaking deployment of realpolitikal precedent, Kenyatta cites Tory HRA-bashers' reliance on UK sovereignty to escape the constraints of the European Human Rights Convention in support of his own argument that the war crime tribunal is interfering with his own country's sovereignty.This is the subject of Adam Wagner's post on the UK Human Rights blog: Kenyan President uses Tory human rights plans to defend war crimes charges. He points out that
the international legal system relies in the most part on the willing cooperation of states, even if that means some loss of sovereignty".
South Africa
Pistorius trial returns to court and TV screens for sentencing
Just when you thought you'd seen and heard the last of the Oscar Pistorius trial, which concluded in September with a verdict of guilty of culpable homicide in relation to the shooting of Reeva Steenkamp ( see Weekly Notes – 12 Sept)
The case returned to our TV screens for a hearing about the sentence. This turned out to be a substantive hearing in its own right, chiefly focusing on the question whether and to what extent the defendant would be affected by a spell in chokey. It prompted widespread discussion about the state of South Africa's jails, according to The Independent.
In the end , Judge Thokozile Matilda Masipa sentenced Pistorius to a five-year sentence, which may result in a prison term of only 10 months, followed by house arrest. He was also given a suspended three-year term on separate firearms charges.
After the decision, the Sowetan reported that prosecuting counsel, Gerrie Nel, had asked for advice on whether the State should appeal, presumably on grounds of excessive leniency. According to the report, The judgment in the Oscar Pistorius trial is not well reasoned and can be appealed on a question of law, a legal expert said on Friday.
Judiciary to clear backlog by December
Actually, what they said was they would clear 88% of the cases that have been waiting for more than 10 years by December. The acting director of case management for the judiciary told a news conference in the city of Dar es Salaam that
"We have taken a deliberate decision to ensure these cases do not remain in court registries. We have established special sessions…"
It seems that 2,807 old cases remain undetermined for a period of between 5 and 10 years, with some 575 cases remaining unsolved after more than 10 years. Judges' caseloads have been increased and target dates introduced. More judges will also be appointed.

Václav Havel Prize for Creative Dissent
The Russian punk protest band Pussy Riot, the Turkish performance artist Erdem Gunduz and the Tibetan filmmaker Dhondup Wangchen were the laureates for the 2014 Vaclav Havel Award, announced by The Human Rights Foundation (HRF) in May this year, and awarded at a ceremony in Oslo on 22 October.
According to the announcement from HRF,
"The Prize celebrates those who, with bravery and ingenuity, unmask the lie of dictatorship by living in truth."
Frequently this involves less than pleasant brushes with oppressive laws and/or law enforcers and legal systems. For example, Maria Alyokhina, of Pussy Riot, served 21 months in a Russian prison camp for performing a protest song in the Cathedral of Christ the Savior in Moscow, after a trial that could hardly have been categorised as fair. Pussy Riot took the case to the Court of Human Rights in Strasbourg, as reported by Bloomberg news.
Incidentally, when searching for this story on google, I included the word "pussy riot" and was told some results had been filtered out for the word "pussy" because Safe Search was on. This seems a tad, well, prissy. Another example of google going over the top to semaphore its compliance with tiresome regulation?
This week's slightly silly story…
Breeches of public propriety
A serial "flasher" (or frequent-open-flyer) has been told by a judge in the Crown Court at St Albans not only to keep his penis out of sight, but that he must wear underpants under his trousers whenever he goes out and about.
Judge John Plumstead made the order when sentencing the defendant, Terry Emberson, to an 18-month jail term suspended for 18 months with supervision, for four offences of indecent exposure committed in July this year. He will also be placed on the sex offenders register.
Full story, Hertfordshire Mercury.

IGN: Baltar (James Callis) lies about Ellen's Cylon blood test, she is incredibly interested in how long it will take to get to Earth...when you look back over the episodes, can you see now where Ron Moore made the decision to make you the final Cylon?
Vernon: Sure. He left so many doors open. He didn't tie everything up. The element of danger was always inherent in Ellen. Is she with us or is she against us? Who is this woman? On that level of mystery and intrigue about Ellen, it's a good call to have made Ellen the fifth Cylon. And the relationship between her and Saul and them having the longest standing relationship in the universe. These guys have been together for thousands of years. And they are the definition of marriage. They've stayed together even though they've been through hell and back. Thousands of years and no therapy. And they're still together. (laughs)
IGN: Before you found out, did you have a guess who it might be?
Vernon: I knew it wasn't going to be Katee (Sackhoff). That was too obvious. I thought it might have been Dualla (Kandyse McClure). I also thought it might have been Gaeta. I knew for so long so I really didn't have much time to really wonder who it was going to be.
IGN: Viewers will remember that all the resurrection ships have been destroyed...and yet you wake up on one.
Vernon: Yeah. How are they gonna do that? (laughs) How's that going to happen? Oh, come on it's easy, really. You're going to go, duh! I can't give you any more information than that but it's easy and you're going to give yourself a little smack, but you'll see how it all ties together.
IGN: Have your read any of the fan reactions?
Vernon: I have. I find it so fascinating that there are fans that are still in denial. They just know it's not me. And they have a really good story backing up their ideas. Saul Tigh (Michael Hogan) is hallucinating me. And so this could just be another Ron Moore ruse, and that leads them to believe that it's Katee Sackhoff or it's someone else. And justifiably so, because the writers have pulled many punches over the years and this could be a punch. (laughs)
IGN: But you are definitely the final one.
Vernon: I am the final Cylon. Sorry guys. It's funny. I really was fascinated. The whole thing will be over and five years from now they'll still say, 'No, no. Kate Vernon was not the fifth Cylon.'
IGN: I'm sure there will be a website. You know fans...
Vernon: I love that! Sci-fi people are so intelligent and so imaginative and creative and it's wonderful to hear their deeply justifiable reasons and theories for anything. It's great.
IGN: After Battlestar, do you want to stick with TV? What are you hoping for?
Vernon: I'm not really genre specific. I'd love to do sci-fi, drama, comedy, TV or film. I just really crave something well written. Something I can sink my teeth into. Playing Ellen...she was a feast, a never-ending feast. I just never knew what I was going myself into regarding that character. So as long as it's well written and I can have fun with it.
Battlestar Galactica airs Friday night at 10pm on Sci Fi.

Pvt airlines threaten strike on Aug 18; demand bailout
Private airlines threatened strike from Aug 18 if the govt fails to announce a bailout for them.
Zeenews Bureau
New Delhi: Desperate for funds, major Indian private airlines have threatened to strike work if the government does not provide them a bailout in the form of measures like ATF tax cut etc.
In a press conference organised by Federation of Indian Aviation, the private owners like Jet Airway's Naresh Goyal, Kingfisher's Vijay Mallya expressed their disillusionment with the Government in not extending help to the grieving sector.
The decision was taken at a meeting of the Federation of Indian Airlines (FIA), a representative body of private carriers, to discuss the current situation in the country`s aviation sector and the way forward.
"We have decided to halt countrywide operations on August 18 to highlight the urgency of the matter and the need for government intervention," Anil Baijal, the FIA secretary announced.
He said that member airlines had accumulated losses worth a whopping $2 billion, and unless the government initiates action to help them overcome the crisis they will not be able to sustain operations any further.
The decision was taken jointly by Kingfisher Airlines,
Kingfisher Red, Jet Airways, JetLite, Jet Konnect, IndiGo and
SpiceJet, which have accumulated losses of Rs 2,444 crore in
2007-08 and feared to sustain losses of over Rs 10,000 crore
in 2008-09.
Ironically, the decision was taken at a meeting of
their umbrella body Federation of Indian Airlines (FIA) on a
day when oil companies raised the aviation turbine fuel prices
by Rs 620 per kilolitre from tonight.
"We can not afford to sustain losses. This year alone we have combined losses to the tune of Rs 57000cr," Mallya said.
He announced that the private carriers will not operate on August 18 and those who have booked their tickets will be refunded. He however said that international operations will not be affected as they do not suffer financially as much the Indian ones do.
Naresh Goyal said it was not a threat but a request.
"It is not that the govt does not know about our plight. I am positive we will not have to stop operations on August 18 and something will work out," he said.
"We are bleeding. Everybody is bleeding. Giving a helping hand to the airline industry is done all over the world,"he added.
Mallya however said the government could take it as a threat if they wanted to but they had a right to report their grievances.
Asserting that they have a right to be heard, Mallya
said "we are being taxed to death. We are not asking a bailout
package but punitive sales tax on jet fuel and high airport
charges should be taken care of."
The private carriers said that they may have to suspend operations indefinitely if the current situation continued. "We want the government and the nation to know what may happen if the airlines don't operate," Mallya said.
Reacting to the airlines` move, Civil Aviation Minister Praful Patel said national carrier Air India would launch additional services Aug 8 if the private carriers go on strike.
"We will mount additional services on August 18 so as to reduce any inconvenience to the public," the minister said in a statement.
Among the various demands from the federation are: Direction to oil retailers to sell aviation fuel cheaper and reduction in airport charges, which they say has ballooned ever since the entry of private players.
"Aviation fuel is among the highest in the world," said Baijal, adding this expenditure alone added 30-40 percent of an airline`s operational costs.
The federation secretary general also said member carriers were already burdened by a low fares and a sharp dip in passenger traffic, and that in such difficult times, they were naturally looking for help from the government.
"This is a well considered decision of private carriers," added Baijal.
He said the carriers would take whatever logistical action was needed as the result of suspension of operations, like refund of money for tickets already booked.
Thus far, the civil aviation ministry has ruled out any bailout package for the aviation industry, even though moves are afoot to help the national carrier tide over one of its worst crises.
"Aviation fuel prices are among the highest in the world," said Baijal, adding this expenditure alone comprises 30-40 percent of an airline`s operational costs. These airlines owe nearly $500 million towards fuel to oil companies.
In addition, the economic meltdown has impacted
passenger traffic adversely to a large extent, compounded
further by the tourist arrivals following Mumbai attacks.
All these issues have been taken up with various
ministries of the government but "without any success", the
FIA said.
"This is a well considered decision of private carriers," added Baijal.
Thus far, the civil aviation ministry has ruled out any bailout package for the aviation industry, even though moves are afoot to help the national carrier tide over one of its worst crises.
The opposition parties, including the Left front and the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) have also said that a bailout package from the government would not be desirable.
AI not participating
National carrier Air India today
said it is not part of the "boycott" decision of the private
airlines not to fly on Aug 18.
"Air India is not party to the boycott decision. The
matter was not dicussed in the FIA meeting so long as the Air
India Chairman was present.
The decision was taken subsequent
to his departure," an Air India spokesperson said.

Welcome to the ineedhits Search Engine Marketing blog, where we share the latest search engine and online marketing news, releases, industry trends and great DIY tips and advice.
A few changes of the last couple of months have aroused our suspicions that Google wants to become more like Bing.
First there was the new design for the Google results page. Next was the ability to add a background to the Google homepage and now we see a newly designed Google Image Search that looks suspiciously familiar.
Let's take a look at each of these separately.
Google re-designed its search engine results page in May this year. The most obvious design change was the introduction of the search options panel on the left side of the page making it look very similar to Bing.
In June, Google went one step closer to becoming like Bing by enabling searchers to add an image as the background to Google homepage.
This week Google released its new design for Image Search. The new design includes a tiled layout with instant scrolling between pages. The layout is a lot more minimalist than the old Google Image Search and you can see from the image below why it has been drawing comparisons with Bing Image Search.
What's going on here Google? Jealous of the new search engine in town with a better design layout? It's pretty clear that Bing has had some kind of influence on Google, what do you think? Feel free to share your thoughts below.
Good article, very informative. One has to agree that Google looks like it is following Bing in these ways.

Ammo on the shelf? Really?
So, I drove the 4 hours and took the Stage Boss to Portland OR to do some shopping, I decided to go into their Dick's Sporting Goods. I found there's a few places with ammo out there if you don't mind the price tags. My Walmart this morning in Eastern Washington had Winchester .44mag selling for $39.77 this morning and the WIN .40 (165gr) for $19.37. I think it's slowly coming back.
My LGS is now only rationing 9mm and 223/5.56 (2 boxes) all others are back to all you can buy.
I was at Sportsmans Warehouse yesterday and they had 9 dry boxes of 180 round Fiocci .308. Today when I went down there there was one left so I got it, they were $1/round. There were also 2 1000 round cases for .80/round. They say they have been getting weekly shipments of .223 and 45ACP but they go pretty fast. There is not a line at the door though. It seems like things are loosening up a bit in my area.

Pimiento is derived from the Spanish word "pimienta," which means "pepper." The often heart-shaped peppers with a thick flesh are popular additions to a variety of foods such as salads, soups, cheese spread and olives.You can cook the pimiento pepper by roasting it and eating it whole from an antipasto platter or as a side dish or cutting it up and adding it to a soup, sandwich or pasta dish.
Things You'll Need
- Oven
- Water
- Paper towels
- Glass baking dish or metal pan
- Pastry brush
- Olive oil
- Oven mitts
- Tongs
- Plastic wrap
- Sharp knife
- Spoon
Preheat an oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit. Rinse the peppers under cool running water for a minimum of thirty seconds each and pat dry with paper towel.
Place the whole peppers in a glass baking dish or metal pan. Brush the entire surface of each pimiento pepper with a liberal dose of pure olive oil. You can use extra virgin olive oil, but it's not necessary.
Place the peppers in the oven for 10 to 15 minutes to cook. Remove the dish from the oven with a pair of oven mitts on your hands. Pick each pepper up with a pair of tongs and turn it over so it will roast evenly. Place the dish back into the oven and cook for another 10 to 15 minutes. Remove the dish and rotate the peppers once more. Cook for an additional 10 to 15 minutes and remove the peppers from the oven as long as the skin is visibly separating from the pepper.
Cover the dish or pan with plastic wrap and allow the peppers to completely cool. Peel the skin from the peppers with the edge of a sharp knife or your fingernails. Scoop out the core and seeds with a spoon and discard.
Eat the pepper as is, slice it into strips or chop it.
Tips & Warnings
- For storage, place in a container with a lid and cover with olive oil. Seal the lid tightly and put in the refrigerator for up to three days.
- You can roast the peppers more quickly at a higher temperature of 450 degrees Fahrenheit. Beware that the outer skin may become charred.

We went there for happy hour. It's not much of a happy hour as far as HH discounts. We ordered a mai tai and nachos. Mai Tai was ok. When we ordered the nachos we noticed on the menu pork was an additional $6.50. We weren't that hungry more there for the drinks and atmosphere. Anyway she asked if we wanted chicken on the nachos, since the menu didn't indicate chicken we assumed it came with it. Well it was an $8 up charge for the chicken. Happy hour nachos ended up being $18. We will not be going back.
Excellent Service
Worst dinner I have ever had on beautiful Kauai. Mahi mahi and potatoes were tasteless. Drink and dessert were also very poor. Service was very good but felt like waitress wanted to rush us along. Extremely disappointing. Do not eat here.
Love this place!
It was an awesome vacation last week April 8-12... We visited multiple times after the beach, enjoyed the Best Mai Tai's ever, great duo band, atmosphere, food and service...5 stars all the way!!!
Always a wonderful way to spend an evening with great food, awesome atmosphere, and staff who know what's going on! Mahalo.

The Problems With Heading Into the Cloud
When small firms use remote services, they face headaches they never had before
Ah, the simplicity of the cloud. For small businesses, it means not having to manage big IT setups in their office, turning instead to remote services that let them do everything from storing data to running software online.
Journal Report
- Insights from The Experts
- Read more at WSJ.com/SmallBusinessReport
More in Small Business
Well, maybe not as simple as many entrepreneurs expect. Experts warn that shifting big jobs to the cloud still means business owners need to oversee a host of everyday IT operations around their own office. And it introduces technical considerations they may never have thought of.
As Fast As You Can
For one thing, there's speed. Moving to the cloud "will require a bigger Internet connection," says Chad R. Paalman, a technology adviser for small businesses in Lansing, Mich. "Very often, business owners don't realize they may need more bandwidth when moving services" to the cloud.
Many small businesses have Internet plans that offer fast download speeds, but upload speeds are also important if they're storing big bundles of data in online services. "The risk is lost productivity due to poor performance," says Mr. Paalman. "Our experience has shown that you need approximately 3 MB synchronous upload/download for every 10 users."
There's also a certain amount of hands-on tech expertise involved even if a business dumps a lot of its systems in the office. For one thing, it's still going to be running local computers—and all of them need hardware and software help. "The big misnomer is that moving to the cloud means that you don't have any on-site infrastructure," Mr. Paalman says. "Most cloud providers do not provide on-site IT support."
For instance, says Mike Mandato, an IT professional in Westlake, Ohio, businesses will need to update security software of all stripes, as well as the necessary software to run the machines in their network.
Introducing WSJD, the Journal's new home for tech news, analysis and product reviews.
Eyes on the Cloud
Business owners also have to keep an eye on technical matters on the cloud company's end—things like where the data is stored, what privacy protections the cloud company has in place, whether it will mine the data for marketing and how the information is encrypted.
"There are countless things that can be buried or even omitted from agreements," says Mr. Paalman. "If you don't know what to ask, you may risk finding out the hard way."
It's also important that entrepreneurs look at the policies in place if they want to switch services. "What if the business wants to transfer or sign on with cloud company B due to more and better services?" Mr. Mandato says. "How does your data get transferred from A to B cloud? Will they load your data to a hard drive and mail it for you?"
As a last resort, business owners may want to look at having a plan in place in their own office to back up crucial information. Having a copy of the data on site can be crucial, says Jahangir Karimi, an IT expert and a professor at the University of Colorado Denver, "so that they are not totally relying on the provider for its availability."

French Furniture designer Hervet-Manufacturier makes some really interesting looking angular furniture the looks like it what people thought the future was going to look like in the 70's. It's got a heavy Space 1999 vibe to it. And of course they also make some expensive hardwood retro "artisanal" cruisers. While they were at it, they released a formica laminated, laser engraved, limited edition Daft Punk skateboard that sold for $288. Hervet-Manyfacturier went with a retro mail order catalog inspired promo image, while Daft Punk's chose a glossy 70's skatemag style advertisement.

Planning for the future of Winchester town
Press Release: 11/02/2014
Winchester City Council is developing its Local Plan Part 2, which will include detailed planning policies for the next 15-20 years.
The Council is launching a series of events to discuss future planning issues which will be open to anyone interested in the future of the city.
The purpose of the events is to set out the planning issues currently facing Winchester town and to give people opportunity to discuss these.
Officers will give an update on the current planning situation in the local area and outline the next steps in preparing the Local Plan Part 2. This will provide an opportunity to discuss local needs and future planning issues in the area, particularly those that can be addressed through the Local Plan.
There will be a meeting aimed at each of the Winchester wards and parishes that form the built-up area of Winchester. Those so far fixed are:
- 24 February 7.30 p.m. at St Barnabas Church Hall (meeting focusing on St Barnabas Ward and Harestock).
- 24 February 7.30 p.m. at St Mark's Church, Oliver's Battery (meeting focusing on Badger Farm & Oliver's Battery).
- 27 February 3.30 p.m. – 7.30 p.m. at Stanmore Primary School (drop-in session focusing on St Luke Ward).
- 1 March 1pm, at Winchester Discovery Centre (drop-in session focusing on St Bartholomew Ward).
- 4 March 7.30 p.m. Westgate School (meeting focused on St Paul Ward).
- 5 March 7.30pm at St Faith's Parish Hall, Back Street, St Cross (meeting focusing on St Michael Ward).
The Council's Local Plan Part 1, adopted in 2013, establishes the planning strategy for Winchester, including housing targets for the next 20 years, together with a requirement for sufficient land available to meet economic and retail needs.
Current work suggests there is unlikely to be a need to release any significant new greenfield sites to meet the town's housing, employment or retail targets. These will mostly be provided for on sites already identified such as Barton Farm, Silver Hill and the Station Approach area. But there might be a number of more local issues that may have land requirements or will need to be addressed through the Local Plan, which the Council would like to hear about.
The events will focus on each ward but the discussions can cover issues that affect the whole of Winchester town. The meetings are open to all and additional dates are being planned so please visit the Council's web site: http://www.winchester.gov.uk/planning-policy/local-plan-part-2/development-needs-and-site-allocations/winchester-town/ for details and updates.

Haitians crossing over from Canada
Player utilities

This story is based on a radio interview. Listen to the full interview.
Since the January 12th earthquake in Haiti, a record number of Haitians who are NOT refugees of the earthquake have been caught attempting to cross the border from Canada into New York and Vermont. Anchor Marco Werman finds out what's behind the increase from David Watts, a lawyer representing three Haitians recently caught trying to cross the US border from Canada.
MARCO WERMAN: Since the January 12th earthquake in Haiti, a record number of Haitians have been caught attempting to cross illegally into the United States from Canada. Eight were apprehended over the Easter weekend alone. Vermont is a popular entry point. Attorney David Watts is representing three Haitian citizens who crossed over from Canada. He's in Burlington, Vermont. Watts says all three of his clients had previously lived in the U.S.
DAVID WATTS: Each of them had been ordered removed from the U.S., that is that they had been here illegally, had been ordered removed and challenged their removal, but at some point decided on balance to follow the order of the immigration authorities and to leave.
WERMAN: Whey did these three people come into the U.S. from Canada?
WATTS: After January 12th there was a change in policy that was essentially made necessary by the fact of the earthquake in Haiti. People who were in the U.S. illegally really couldn't be returned to Haiti and so immigration authorities established something called temporary protected status whereby they essentially agreed that if you were in the U.S. as of January 12, 2010 when the earthquake occurred and were continuously here thereafter, you wouldn't be repatriated to Haiti and you would have this temporary lawful status in the U.S. including access to work permits.
WERMAN: And obviously these people were not in the U.S. after January 12th when this essentially amnesty was offered, but I guess there was the temptation of coming to the U.S. to take advantage of that amnesty.
WATTS: Yes, of my clients, none of them had access to attorneys so they didn't come back after seeking attorney advice. They learned that Haitians were not being repatriated to Haiti for a temporary period and they assumed this would, on some level, apply to them.
WERMAN: How did your client physically enter the U.S. and how and when were they apprehended?
WATTS: All three of them got a ride to the border and simply walked across on a remote road in a situation or across through the woods where there was a remote road on the other side. None of them had a plan to be picked up or anything. They essentially conceded or expected to be picked up by immigration officials as soon as they got into the U.S.
WERMAN: So what happens to these three people now? Will they be deported?
WATTS: They are facing charges in the U.S. for having re-entered after having been removed. In this situation, even if convicted, it's unlikely that they'll serve long jail sentences. But the problem with that particular charge will essentially render them permanently unable to achieve lawful status within U.S. even if they leave for a long period of time.
WERMAN: Ever?
WATTS: Ever. And so they're in a situation where they probably will not be repatriated to Haiti for a period of time because they can't be. Haiti is not taking anybody back. But at some point, they would be returned to Haiti.
WERMAN: David Watts is a lawyer representing three Haitians arrested recently for trying to cross into the U.S. from Canada. Thank you indeed Mr. Watts.
WATTS: Thank you very much.

For those who want to use real wood for flooring, there are two types: hardwood flooring and engineered wood flooring. The first is made from 100% real hardwood, while the second, called engineered wood flooring is constructed using real wood together with MDF, Plywood and Softwood. When fitted correctly you will never be able to spot the difference between the two types. So, Engineered wood is a cheaper and more eco-friendly alternative to solid hardwood, as it uses half the number of trees.
Engineered wood flooring is made up of layers of wood that are pressed and glued together. For added stability, the grains of each layer run in different directions. As a result, Engineered wood is less likely to expand and contract compared to solid wood during fluctuations in humidity and temperature. The top layer of engineered wood flooring consists of high-quality wood. While this type of flooring can be sanded and finished, it cannot be done as many times as solid wood flooring.
Unlike solid wood, which must be nailed to a wood sub-floor, engineered wood can be installed in a different number of ways.
Nail-Down Floor. This is for the 3/8″ thick floor–its thinness requires nailing to enhance stability;
Glue-Down Floor. The 1/2″ thick floor can be nailed down or glued down.
Floating Floor. The 5/8″ planks are thick enough to act as a floating floor.
Real wood: Engineered Wood Flooring has real hardwood veneer on top unlike Laminate flooring which has melamine-infused paper veneer.
Strong: Engineered wood has plywood underneath, which is laid cross-ways thus providing additional strength to the flooring.
Pre-Finished: Engineered Wood Floor is already sanded and sealed before installation, unlike solid hardwood.
Can be sanded: Engineered Wood Flooring can be sanded after scratches and dings develop upto 3 times.
Moisture-proof: Engineered wood flooring works well in kitchens, basements, and bathrooms where light moisture might be present unlike solid wood but doesn't hold up in really wet areas. Only tiles and other natural flooring materials can resist moisture.
Cost: Engineered flooring is almost as expensive as solid hardwood flooring and much more expensive than laminate wood flooring.
Maintenance: While solid wood flooring can be sanded many times to eliminate scratches and blemishes on the surface, the thin top layer of engineered flooring only allows this to be done two or three times at most.
Cleaning: Engineered flooring comes with beveled edges to make installation easy. But the joints attract dirt and are difficult to clean.
Appearance: Although the top layer is made of real wood, in some cases the engineering process can result in a different grain pattern that does not look like wood.
Durability: Because of the thin top layer, engineered hardwood flooring is susceptible to dents, and harder to repair if damaged.
When remodeling, many homeowners want hardwood flooring. However, solid hardwood floor is difficult to install on your own and hardwood can be finicky when it comes to moisture. This is where Engineered flooring has an advantage. It looks like real wood and can be periodically sanded to revive the wood grain. Also, it is more moisture-proof than solid wood. But for people who cannot afford hardwood or engineered wood, Laminate wood is a much cheaper alternative – it looks like actual wood and is much cheaper.

1/4 c. tahini (sesame paste)
2 whole garlic cloves, skin off
2 tsp. tamari sauce (substitute soy sauce if not gluten-free)
1 1/2 tsp. sesame oil
1/4 tsp. kosher salt
1/4 tsp. coarse ground black pepper
1/8 tsp. ground cinnamon
Pinch of ancho chili powder (optional)
1/4 c. olive oil
1/2 c. filtered water
Heat oven to 350 degrees. Spray aluminum foil with olive oil. Cut green tops off beets and wash thoroughly. Wrap beets loosely in the foil and put on pan in the oven. Roast for 35-45 minutes, piercing with fork to tell when completely roasted. Leave wrapped in foil to cool. Take a paring knife and peel the skin off the beets. Slice and set aside.
Rinse the kale and pat dry. Cut out the larger part of the stalk and then cut up into bit sized pieces. Place into large bowl. Juice the lemon directly onto the kale and massage with clean hands for 5 minutes to soften the kale. Add onion slices.
In your Vitamix or food processor, add all the ingredients except the olive oil and water. Blend a few seconds to cut up the garlic and then while running, slowly power in the oil and then water into the blender. Blend another 10 seconds to emulsify.
Pour dressing over kale salad and mix to coat. Top with pecans and dried berries.

Raw Chopped Salad with Orange Dijon Dressing (GF,V,Rawish)
Time: 30 minutes
1 small head of broccoli
1/2 head of cauliflower
1/2 head small red cabbage
15 baby carrots
1 c. mixed fresh herbs (parsley, dill, mint, basil)
1 c. raw almonds
1/2 inch peeled fresh ginger root
1 tbsp. dijon mustard
1/8 c. extra virgin olive oil
1/2 - 3/4 c. fresh orange juice, unsweetened
1 tsp. himalayan pink salt
1/2 tsp. course black pepper
Get an extra large mixing bowl out to build your salad. Destem, decore, and cut into large chunks the broccoli, cauliflower, and red cabbage.
In your food processor, in individual batches, pulse each salad ingredient for approximately 15 seconds until no large chunks remain. Meaning you will only have one vegetable type processing at a time. Dump the chopped contents of each batch into your large bowl and don't bother to wash or rinse the food processor between batches. Continue until all the salad ingredients have been chopped and added to the large mixing bowl.
In your food processor, process the salad dressing for approximately 20 seconds until it is emulsified and no ginger chunks remain. Pour over the salad ingredients and gently stir to incorporate. Add more orange juice if the salad is too dry, but do not over-dress!
Makes 8 servings. Will keep for 4 days stored in an airtight container in your refrigerator.

1/4 c. fresh orange juice
2 tbsp. extra virgin olive oil

Question: Police officers arrived at Grant s home to investigate a tip
Police officers arrived at Grant's home to investigate a tip that Grant's residence was being used to sell drugs. At the time, Grant was not at home, but he did arrive home in his car while police were questioning a man and woman parked in front of the house about possession of drug paraphernalia. He parked at the end of the driveway, got out of his car, and shut the door. One of the police officers, who was some 30 feet away, called to Grant, who responded by going to the patrol car. The police officer immediately arrested Grant, handcuffed him, and locked him in the back seat of the police car. The police officer then went back and searched Grant's car, which, of course, was 30 feet away. The search revealed a gun and a bag of cocaine in the pocket of a jacket on the backseat. Grant was charged with possession of a narcotic drug for sale and paraphernalia (i. e., the plastic bag in which the cocaine was found). Grant moved to suppress the evidence seized in the car on the grounds that the warrantless search violated his Fourth Amendment rights— more specifically that the police had no right to search the car since it was not within reaching distance at the time of his arrest. Was Grant correct?

A new alpha-particle-emitting isotope 259Db
An isotope of the element 105 with mass number 259 has been produced via the reaction 241Am(22Ne, 4n)259Db at Elab = 118 MeV. The reaction products were transported and collected using the helium-jet technique and the rotating wheel apparatus. The α-decays of the products and their daughter nuclides were detected by a set of Si(Au) detectors arranged ingeniously. The Z and A of the nuclide have been unambiguously identified by the genetic relationship between the new activity and the known nuclide 255Lr established by α-recoiled milking measurement. The new nuclide 259Db has a half-life of 0.51±0.16 s and decays by alpha-particle emission of Eα = 9.47 MeV. Furthermore, the nuclide 258Db and its daughter 254Lr have also been clearly observed using the same projectile-target combination. Their half-lives and α-particle energies determined in this work are in agreement with previous known data, thus also proving the reliability of our assignment of 259Db.

Product Description:
Movie Lovers' Ratings & Reviews:
Based on 8 ratings.
Volume 2 contains some of the more interesting and entertaining episodes. "Annie and the Silver Ace" is from the first season and features frequent guest Harry Lauter as the owner of a gambling saloon whom Annie tries to reform. She is so nice to him, you wonder if he is an old flame (Harry appeared a dozen times on the show, though as different characters). Kid brother Tagg has an important role using hypnosis, of all things! Alan Hale, Jr., is very funny as the bad guy subject to Tagg's spell. "Annie and the Lacemaker", from the last season, has another unusual plot device where a lace dress helps to determine which girl is the true heir to a man's estate. Lots of mystery in this episode. "Flint and Steel", another season 3 episode, is a more traditional western story about some thugs who try to force ranchers off their land to grab it. Annie gets to do some sharpshooting here (using different jacketed bullets!) to save the day. She gets some help from one of the ranch wives - does she knows how to ride and shoot? Of course! "Annie and the Chinese Puzzle" (season 2) tells the story of how Annie and Tagg help a laundry owner (Key Luke) framed for a murder, with themes of bigotry and when to tell the truth. Overall, a great selection of episodes. You get to see the deepening relationship between Annie and Deputy Lofty - she practically proposes to him in one the episodes, and the growth of Tagg, who almost towers over Annie by the last season.

Chelsea midfielder, Eden Hazard, has revealed that he sent Jose Mourinho a text to apologize, after the coach was sacked in December.
The Belgian was crowned PFA Player of the Year, as the Blues clinched the Premier League title last season, but has experienced a dip in form this term.
Hazard did not score his first goal of the season until the end of January – a penalty against Championship side, MK Dons.
"I sent him the message to say I was sorry he had gone and, well, just that I was sorry," Hazard told the Guardian. "We'd enjoyed all that success together last season, but this time round we hadn't.
"I felt a little bit guilty because I'd been player of the year. I'd been one of the most decisive players, and this year I'd performed less well.
"I hadn't been at the same level. So I sent that text to Jose and he came back to me, wishing me all the best for the future. For a team of champions to go through what we have this year even I can't explain.
"Things have been better recently, but we're still not winning games quite as we used to. No one can put his finger on what's happened at Chelsea."

I've put Google Analytics on some of my Github project pages, but hardly ever look at it. Well, today I decided to take a look at a year's worth of traffic, and I am absolutely blown away.
In one year, there were 743,557 unique visitors to my various open source projects. SuperScrollorama was the most popular with 487,475 pageviews. Unbelievable! And I noticed that I wasn't even tracking Responsivator or BigVideo.js, so it was undoubtedly a lot higher, probably over a million. Amazing.
