Believing he was subjected to a "racist comment" and "treated like a criminal" a native-Canadian hockey player wants answers why he was "harassed" and denied entry into Canada at a border crossing this week.
The Assembly of First Nations has received the complaint, high-profile Toronto attorney Calvin Barry has been retained and the Canadian Border Services Agency has launched an investigation.
What everybody wants to know is what it was about Brandon Nolan that border officers at the crossing at the Ivy Lea Bridge, between Brockville and Kingston, didn't like?
Whatever it was, for almost two hours Monday, Nolan, 24, property of the Carolina Hurricanes, was a man without a country.
"It was really weird," Nolan said in an interview yesterday. "As a citizen in this country, I was kicked out of my country."
Or at least not let back in.
The former Oshawa General, and the eldest son of New York Islanders coach Ted Nolan, was returning to his own home to Whitby with his girlfriend, Stephanie Antalfy, from his parent's home on Long Island in New York when he pulled his dad's BMW up to the border point near Lansdowne, Ont.
A routine questioning at the border seems to have turned into something that may end up going before the Human Rights Commission.
Nolan, who played for the Bridgeport Sound Tigers in the American Hockey League last season, documented the entire incident after he was asked to pull over and talk to two officers.
"They were both questioning me about the licence plates on my car. I was told that I needed to pay duty on my car and register it before I entered Canada, otherwise they would not allow us to cross.
"I responded, 'I have done this (crossed the border with American plates) 30 or 40 times.' Officer No. 2 remarked, 'Then the border made 30 or 40 mistakes.' "
Later another officer said, "Where's Cornwall?"
Nolan, who says he has never before had any contact with or ill feeling toward police, took offence to the comment -- saying officers were "snickering" and "laughing" and he felt like they were stereotyping him in with the cigarette and alcohol trafficking that is alleged to go on in that region. "I have never been to Cornwall," he told them.
In his statement he wrote: "I took offence to this statement as it is a racist comment due to the native population residing in that area. He seemed to be insinuating that the border officials in Cornwall would bend the rules for a fellow native Canadian."
Later Nolan explained he is a professional hockey player and routinely crosses the border. This time though he says his driver's licence was handed back to him and he was rudely told to "go back to the U.S."
Ironically the U.S. immigration people "treated us great" and sent him back -- believing he should be entitled to enter his homeland. It did not work. Nolan said upon his return a Canadian officer said, "Is he still standing there? Ignore him."
He tried to explain that he was "employed by the New York Islanders until April" and that he just recently signed a contract with Carolina Hurricanes for September 2007.
"Where is your green card then?" he was asked.
"I showed my native status card and told him that a green card is not necessary for me to work in the U.S. His response was, 'I know what the status card is. It's the U.S. that accepted that agreement, but we don't.'
"I said that for the last five years I have been playing hockey and crossing the border with my status card and do not need a green card. I also showed him my New York licence with the U.S. residence on the card.
"He replied to me by saying, 'That does not prove that you live in the U.S., and that (pointing to my native status card) means nothing to me.' "
Perhaps some sensitivity training is in order down there. Or maybe some lessons on simple manners.
It's appalling and hopefully security video will be pulled to determine what did go on here.
No matter what the technical issue the officers may have been concerned about, if this happened like Nolan describes this treatment is reprehensible.
An apology may be in order but the officers down there will get the opportunity to tell their side of it. "We are looking into the allegations to determined what happened," said border services spokesman Chris Kealey.
Meanwhile, on the Garden River reserve last night, Brandon's parents, Ted and Sandra Nolan, were also upset and shocked.
"I know Ted went through this kind of thing when he was younger, but Brandon never has," said Sandra.
Ted Nolan said, "No person, native or any visible minority," should be subjected to this. "We have come too far for that," he said.
The Assembly of First Nations may have more to say today.
"They seemed to be on huge power trips," said Brandon, who said a call to a friend who works at the Peace Bridge at Fort Erie is the only reason he was finally admitted.
"Nobody down there seemed to want to just go inside and talk about it. I mean we are citizens. We were treated very rudely.
"It was humiliating."

Today, 25th November, is the UN's Elimination of Violence Against Women day.
It might come as a shock but the UN website tells us that across the globe, 1 in 3 women experience some form of violence in their lifetime.
A recent report I read told me that 1 in 5 men in Cambodia admit to having raped a woman. (Cambodia Daily newspaper)
More than 700 million women alive today were married as children. Girls under the age of 18 who marry are far more likely to suffer violence from their husbands. (UN website)
30% of women in Bangladesh report that their first sexual experience was forced. (WHO)
As I read these statistics a few weeks ago for another piece I was writing, I put my head down in front of my laptop and wept. I wept for the women and girls who know no different. I wept at the injustice and I cried tears for the girls who have nobody else to weep for them. And these girls have haunted me ever since.
These numbers not only alarm me, they make me angry. I find it difficult to understand how women and girls can still be treated as property to buy (not unlike the X boxes and televisions fought over today). I can't bear living in a world that causes so much pain. Every time I read another statistic, I think of another girl facing yet more violence and injustice and I feel her fear, her pain and her helplessness.
I want to scoop all these women and girls up and give them the life they deserve. A life in which they are honoured, respected, cherished and loved. A life that offers them opportunities of education and careers. A life where they can be who they were made to be without simply having to survive the dangers around them. And, in my small
Worcestershire town, I feel helpless too.
Until I realise I am raising three young men who are world changers.
I'm not a mum of girls. I can't teach my daughters to fight for equality and justice for themselves. But I can teach my sons.
As a mum of boys, I can teach them to treasure women and treat them with respect.
I can teach my boys to honour the women and girls around them - giving them dignity and equal status.
I can't teach my daughters how to protect themselves, but I can teach my sons how to protect women. I can teach them to stand up for women when friends are making sexist, uncouth jokes. I can teach them to step in when they see a woman facing violence.
I can teach them that women are more than their bodies. I can teach them to listen to women's ideas instead of guessing their bra sizes.
I can teach my boys that when we love someone, we don't hurt them.
I can teach these young men, who will grow up to be husbands and fathers (I hope..) that sex isn't a weapon or a form of control.
I can teach them that, unlike the Black Friday deals of today which will be rubbish by next Christmas, women are to be loved and cherished for life and not simply thrown away when a newer model comes along.
And so, I realise that there is so much I can do in my small world to eliminate violence for women.
I'm determined because the consequences if I don't are too far reaching. My young men are reformers in a broken world and my job as their mum is to train them to be those who bring change.
Black Friday will come and go. Violence against women is a reality every day for millions. And I'm committed to seeing this change.

bind with a number of different tumor types. That peptide is chemically linked to a fluorescent beacon. The idea is that when the combination molecule gets injected into a surgical site, a surgeon should be able to see tumor tissue that's lit up, next to healthy tissue that isn't, with the help of a fluorescent imaging camera.
Of course, that's not as simple as it sounds. Blaze has sought to make sure it can make a consistent product at increasing scale as it moves through clinical trials, so it hired Claudia Jochheim as its new senior director of process development and manufacturing.
Jochheim previously worked at Seattle Genetics, where she was involved in moving a novel cancer drug linked to a toxin—brentuximab vedotin (Adcetris)—from development to the market. Jochheim has helped Blaze scale up its manufacturing process 100-fold, which is necessary if Blaze is going to evolve from a research project into a company, Franklin says.
"We're at a scale now that can lead us through mid-stage studies," Franklin says.
Another key addition to the Blaze team is Dennis Miller, the new senior vice president of development. Miller, like Franklin, is a veteran of ZymoGenetics, which was acquired by Bristol-Myers Squibb for $885 million in 2010. Miller has been involved in preclinical and clinical development of more than 20 different drug candidates, Franklin says.
Blaze is staying small, with a team of just nine employees, Franklin says. The company has established labs and offices at the Fairview Research Center in Seattle, which makes it neighbors with Novo Nordisk and NanoString Technologies. Blaze isn't doing its manufacturing there, as it relies on contract manufacturers, Franklin says.
The $8.5 million financing should be enough to take Blaze through what it considers "proof of principle" in clinical trials, Franklin says.
Blaze isn't the only group seeking to test a concept around tumor illumination for surgery. A competing company called Avelas Biosciences, from the UC San Diego lab of Nobel laureate Roger Tsien, raised $7.65 million in December from Avalon Ventures. Avalon partner Jay Lichter told my Xconomy colleague Bruce Bigelow in December that the company should be able to complete its first application to begin clinical trials "in a few months."
For a closer look at the concept Blaze is pursuing, check this 3-minute documentary starring Blaze founder Jim Olson, and directed by local filmmakers Bert Klasey, Chris Baron, and James Allen Smith. The film was honored last year as an "audience favorite" at the Sundance Film Festival.

text: hi all, I finally got a set of RS4 wheels, now they need a refurb so I was wondering should I get them done as standard or painted a darker colour of grey to suit the car? If anyone wants to photoshop then to show me how they would look that would be great. This is not my car but, these are the wheels and my car is the same colour only a saloon, but if these were photoshopped it would give me enough to see if I wanted to colour code or not.

Telecoms wary of storing NSA data — Blackburn, Terry: Too soon to say on privacy bill — Are Apple and Google the networks of the 21st century?
With help from Tony Romm and Erin Mershon
TELECOMS WARY OF STORING NSA DATA — Tony's got the phone industry reax from Friday's reports on the intel review panel suggestions: "The special review group selected by President Barack Obama to study government snooping in the wake of Edward Snowden's leaks has recommended that telecoms or a third-party organization hold those sensitive [phone] records...But wireless companies like AT&T and Verizon have opposed such a plan, fearing it could expose them to new liabilities. Civil liberties groups see such long-term retention of call data as bad for consumer privacy, and few on Capitol Hill have embraced the merits of the idea."
Story Continued Below
"Shifting storage of call records outside the NSA would raise a host of issues, including whether the federal government would have to reimburse companies for retaining the additional data and responding to surveillance requests. And such a change would not touch the NSA's legal authority to access those sensitive records in bulk — which some critics say represents the more fundamental problem." More for Pros, if you missed it: http://politico.pro/1cKLJ0F
—WHAT THE WHITE HOUSE IS SAYING: From NSC spokeswoman Caitlin Hayden, as you were running out the door Friday: "Over the next several weeks, we will be reviewing the Review Group's report and its more than 40 recommendations as we consider the path forward, including determining which recommendations we will implement, which might require further study and which we will choose not to pursue...We expect our overall internal review to be completed in January and the President thereafter to deliver remarks to outline the outcomes of our work. At that time, we will make public the Review Group's full report and other conclusions of our work."
BLACKBURN, TERRY: TOO SOON TO SAY ON PRIVACY BILL — The Republican chair of the House privacy task force is joining the lawmaker that convened the group in not guaranteeing that legislators will consider consumer privacy legislation this year. "I think it's too early to make that determination," Rep. Marsha Blackburn told MT. "But I think what we will do is lay the groundwork and a basis for understanding. We're looking for the commonalities, the items that we can agree on it, and I think that's gonna be a pretty good place to start."
Her comments followed those from House commerce subcommittee leader Rep. Lee Terry, who said at a POLITICO event last week that he has "no idea if there's going to be a bill or not" on consumer privacy. Both lawmakers say the task force, which also has Democratic Rep. Peter Welch as a co-chair, is working well — but whatever principles the working group agrees upon, those won't necessarily be turned into legislation.

As usual, we're here to chat 24/7 at firstname.lastname@example.com and @ byersalex. And catch the rest of the team's contact info after speed read.
ARE APPLE AND GOOGLE THE NETWORKS OF THE 21ST CENTURY? — It's hard not to see it that way, says Fred Vogelstein, the author of Dogfight, a book published last month that chronicles the Apple/Google rivalry. Android and iOS devices control as many eyeballs as the TV and cable networks do, Vogelstein says — and they've got more cash to boot. "You combine those two things and it seems hard not to conclude that essentially you've got sort of 21st century television networks being developed here," Vogelstein told MT. "That's kind of a way of thinking about the future that I don't think people are really kind of getting their heads around yet."
For Washington's part, that's the kind of thing that regulators and policymakers need to weigh, he adds. "If I were talking to [FCC Chairman Tom Wheeler], the first question I would ask him would be how do you, the FCC, think about Apple and Google compared to the cable networks, compared to the telcos, compared to the broadcast networks?" he said. "I'm certainly not a deregulation zealot by any stretch of the imagination, but there is a good question in here. It would make sense to either not regulate or regulate all of those companies the same way because at this point they all have arguably equal amounts of clout and control of eyeballs."

PLENTY OF PATENT INPUT AWAITS SENATE — The upper chamber is around for one more week to pass the budget, defense authorization, and a few more executive nominees, but the Senate Judiciary Committee is also slated to kick off its highly anticipated patent work this week with its first hearing on the issue. With patent watchers still trying to handicap what Chairman Patrick Leahy's legislation is going to look like when the panel's finished, seven witnesses will get their chance Tuesday morning to try to shape lawmakers' approaches.
Among those testifying are former USPTO chairman Todd Dickinson, who expressed several concerns with the aggressive approach taken in the House over the last few weeks, and Philip S. Johnson, chief IP counsel for Johnson & Johnson and representative for the 21st Century Patent Coalition, a group that took a somewhat mixed stance on the Innovation Act and said the bill could hurt manufacturers if not changed. Also appearing are Dana Rao, IP counsel at Adobe (one of the companies that's part of the Google and Intel-backed Coalition for Patent Fairness) and Steve Bossone, vice president of IP at Alnylam Pharmaceuticals. John Dwyer, Jr of thew New England Federal Credit Union, Michael Makin of the Printing Industries of America, and AMD's Harry Wolin round out the panels.
60 MINUTES ON NSA: MORE DETAILS, NEW CRITICISM — The much anticipated CBS report on the NSA last night mostly just reaffirmed the details it released earlier in the week — from tensions within the government about whether to make a deal with Snowden to stop leaks, to speculation that Chinese hackers may have coded a significant BIOS cyberattack the NSA ultimately intercepted. CBS also got Alexander to confirm previous reports in the WSJ and elsewhere that he had offered to resign but ultimately the Obama administration asked him to stay on the job. Entering today, the real story might actually again be 60 Minutes, which took plenty of flak on Twitter for failing to include voices from the civil-liberties community.

AND, ICYMI: SPRINT CONSIDERS T-MOBILE PLAY — From the WSJ late Friday: "Sprint Corp. is working toward a possible bid for rival T-Mobile US Inc., people familiar with the matter said, setting the stage for a giant telecom merger that if permitted by regulators would leave the U.S. wireless market dominated by three big companies...A bid would cap a period of extraordinary consolidation in the U.S. wireless market, coming just months after SoftBank Corp. acquired Sprint and T-Mobile merged with MetroPCS Communications Inc...A merger of the third and fourth largest U.S. carriers would create a sizable competitor to industry leaders Verizon Wireless and AT&T Inc.But it would likely face tough opposition from antitrust authorities, who worry consumers could suffer without a fourth national competitor to keep a check on prices...Any pursuit of a bid by Sprint could be aimed at testing antitrust officials' reaction to a deal, and a bad reaction could put an end to the effort." http://on.wsj.com/1kNxwRx

Wilner, an Australian ex-pat who has relocated to Britain, contributes six refreshingly original tunes to the programme, which also includes unique covers of Bob Marley's "Redemption Song" and Tom Waits' "Take Me Home."
Wilner must take some pleasure in deception; the first two tracks on the CD, the lightly swinging "New York Trilogy" and the tender ballad, "Women", lead one to believe that this will be an album of modern post-bop. With a warm tone and relaxed feel that is reminiscent of Jim Hall, Wilner leads the quartet with a strongly lyrical sensibility, and solos that feature both fluid single-note lines and rich chordal passages.
Then comes the introduction to the group's cover of Marley's "Redemption Song." With delays on both the guitar and saxophone, the piece starts with a repetitive melodic figure that breaks down into a free passage where Wilner kicks in the distortion; Bassist Oil Hayhurst then introduces the body of the song, which, while treated as a ballad, remains with a contemporary sound that has traces of Bill Frisell, with its use of reverse delay and "Americana" feel. Saxophonist Simon Allen delivers a solo that builds from a languorous beginning to a fever-pitched middle before breaking down for the song's end.
"Adams '47" has some elements of minimalism which ties it to its source, composer John Adams. With deceptively simple changes that ultimately reveal a richer layer, Wilner delivers one his strongest solos of the set. "The Reprieve" centers on an ostinato figure that fluctuates in intensity as Wilner alternates between his warm and overdriven sounds; Allen uses multiphonics and delay on his tenor solo to create a larger sense of drama. "Scip," is a lightly funky tune inspired by John Scofield's Groove Elation period. Drummer Jacob Smedegaard and Hayhurst keep the groove greasy throughout; Wilner continues to demonstrate his diversity with a down-and-dirty solo.
Throughout the album, through his compositions and his playing, Wilner shows how a diversity of influences can be melded into a singular sound; while his roots are varied, Wilner's playing has clear focus.
The Blake Wilner Quartet is a showcase for a group of young up-and-comers on the European jazz scene. They completed a UK tour in 2003 before recording this album and it shows. There is a sense of interplay that can only come from an intimate knowledge of each other's musical approaches. With The Reprieve, Blake Wilner shows that the term "American Tradition" is a misnomer; while jazz roots began, unquestionably, on American soil, artists from around the world are now assimilating these roots with their own experiences, their own folk traditions, to create something altogether new.
The Reprieve will be released in January, 2004 on Ant Records.

Wednesday, Feb. 26, 2014 | 3:51 p.m.
Backers of the effort to bring the 2016 Republican National Convention to Las Vegas have Thursday morning circled on their calendar.
That's when the Republican National Committee will announce what cities made the final cut for the right to host the quadrennial GOP gathering.
Reince Priebus, GOP chairman will make the announcement at 10 a.m. EST (7 a.m. local time), according to a tweet this afternoon from the RNC.
The massive presidential-nominating convention would bring tens of millions of dollars into the Las Vegas economy and would present the city with weeks of free media promotion around the nation. Other cities vying for the convention include Columbus, Ohio, Dallas, Denver, Kansas City, Mo., and Phoenix.
Last month, a delegation led by Las Vegas 2016 committee chairman and Nevada Lt. Gov. Brian Krolicki traveled to Washington, D.C., to promote Las Vegas' bid to Republican officials.
Las Vegas has made its cluster of hotels on the Strip the central selling point of its pitch. The convention and meeting halls and hotel rooms necessary could be within less than a mile of one another. And for local transportation, there are more regularly operating shuttle buses and taxis in Las Vegas than in most cities.
Another selling point has been the accessibility of Las Vegas, with direct flights readily available from points across the nation.
Two factors – Las Vegas' reputation as Sin City and the melting heat of the desert summer – are seen as negatives to landing the convention here.
If Las Vegas becomes a finalist, the bid team will have a few additional months to try to persuade the eight-member GOP site selection committee to name it as host. The committee will likely reach a decision in June and recommend its candidate to a full Republican National Committee vote at the August meeting. The RNC has never not rubber-stamped the committee's nomination.

I just mounted my first deer useing the Joe Meder change-out, flehmen nose. The nose fit the mannikin OK, but the Meder nose apreared too wide, like Carl Mulden. I'm not to crazy about the way it looks. The mount will take a couple weeks to dry before I can finish it, so I'll reserve final judgement until then. Anybody have any experiences with these change-out noses and your opinions?
Return to Deer Taxidermy Category Menu
The whole lip curl, flehmen posture is unusual in itself, so it doesnt always look "normal" as it is. I believe some guys are putting it on a smaller form than it was meant for, too. Give it a few more days, hopefully itll grow on ya!
After watching deer for most of my life, what I see is that many deer forms have noses that are to narrow. Not the whole muzzle the area from the rear of the nostrial to the front tip of the nose. Even the lips appear to lack flesh on many of the forms.
I thought it was Just me. I have always thought the same exact thing. But short of sculpting your own forms, Or serious altering. There is not much one can do about it. As the majority of the forms are that way. I do add clay to widen them, but it seems like unnecessary work when you pay so much for forms that are suposed to be top notch.
For every guy adding clay, theres one thats cutting back the form and still another that says its just right. They are top notched, just not exact for every area. Thats why theyre made of foam still! Happy altering!
I have done deer from just about all over N. America. Deer noses do come in all shapes and sizes. The WT forms that I use seem to be sized about right for 95% of the deer I do. The buck I mounted had a 8" nose to eye, so I ordered the large Meder Nose. It fit the form nicely where it was cut off, but the nose is 1/2" wider from nostril to nostril than the original form. Even after streaching the nose pad as much as possible, it still didn't fit exactly right (nose skin too small). I didn't want to modify the changeout nose due to all the intricacies of the nasal interior provided. After looking at reference photos, the nose apears to be curled up a little too far as well.

CANBERRA, Australia, June 24 (UPI) -- Government officials in Australia say they're cooperating with Facebook in starting an online voter enrollment program aimed at young people.
The Australian Electoral Commission says the first-ever online enrollment system is aimed at tablet and mobile users, with an enrollment app on Facebook that will help voters link back to the commission's registration site.
With just three months remaining before a September federal election, the commission found almost half a million people between age 18 and 24 are not registered to vote, China's Xinhua News Agency reported Monday.
An additional 900,000 people over age 24 are also not registered, officials said.
This enrollment project marks the first time voters will be able to join the electoral roll using the Internet.

Tagged: gravity forms, newscast, theme conflict
Hi there, I'm having an issue with Gravity Forms and Newscast. You can see it here http://aboutthegoldcoast.com.au/free-advertising/
Forms work fine in preview mode but when published do not process.
I have tested for plugin conflicts and that does not seem to be an issue. It doesn't matter if AJAX is turned on or off. All installation requirements test as ok.
Can you please shed some light on this? Thank you I really need to get these forms working.
I can help you to remove the list symbols and borders. Open up style.css and add:
.gform_wrapper ul li{

background: none !important;

border: none !important;

I don't have a copy of Gravity Forms so I can't debug any js/ajax, etc. errors. Please contact the plugin developers about this issue.
Thank you. It actually looks like it's a Godaddy header issue. Not good, so I have started moving hosting accounts.
I have found that whilst importing content I have lost all my featured images. It's a couple of hundred posts. Any advice on how to restore these and potentially save who knows how much time? The images are in the posts, just not as featured images anymore.

Buy another SUV
By Dean P. Cook on
Vehicle2007 Dodge Nitro SLT 4dr SUV 4WD (3.7L 6cyl 4A)
ReviewDon't be fooled by the cool looks of the Nitro! I've had problems from day 1. First of all the radio stopped working so the dealership replaced it then they replaced it again. Then the check engine light came on, I had it in 4 times before they finally fixed that. The transmission slips, they say this is due to needed download that Chrysler hasn't developed yet. I also have a water leak that two dealerships can't find. Now I drive around with 2 inches of water in the passenger floor pan, the interior stinks and the carpeting is ruined. Now I'm in arbetration to have Chrysler buy this lemon back. I have never been so dissapointed with a new vehicle purchase ever. DON'T BUY THIS PIECE OF CRAP!
Best FeaturesAt first the looks hooked me but I got tired of them quickly, too much cheap plastic here. I do have to admit, for a lemon it is good in the snow and ice.
Worst FeaturesBack to the drawing board on this one fellas. If you want to keep up with the competition you better do a little more testing before you send another piece of crap like this to the market. No wonder foreign vehicles are outselling overpriced American junk like the Dodge Nitro! Again, do not buy it!!

On Tuesday morning (28/08/12), Israeli occupation forces demolished 5 tents and 3 wells in Znota and two tents in Susiya, south of Hebron. Settlers also burned 3 cars near the town of Seir, situated east of Hebron.
Local sources said that a force of Israeli soldiers, accompanied by a bulldozer, demolished 5 tents and 3 wells in Khirbet Znota and, over the course of the demolition, beat a number of citizens who were protesting against this action.
According to sources, this property is owned by Oudah Abu Sharkh, Adeis Abu Sharkh, Nabil Smamrh and Mohammed Khaled Smamrh. In Susiya, two tents, which were home to Mohammed Moussa and … Continue reading

Further arrests took place in Beit Ommar last night, following on from nighttime raids which saw two youths taken early on Tuesday morning. Four IDF jeeps and two vans, with a large force of occupation soldiers, entered Beit Ommar from the Gush Etzion colony at approximately 04:00AM on Wednesday, 29th August 2012.

In Um Elkhair, a village in the South Hebron Hills, the people face a daily existential struggle caused by the Israeli occupation.
What strikes you the most when entering this area is the coexistence, separated by few meters, of two totally different worlds. The chain-link fence holds back leafy green trees and bushes, which give way to a rocky, dry and barren landscape. The discrepancy between water supplies for Palestinians and colonists is a nationwide problem but in few places is it as stark as Um Elkhair.
While the colonists have lush, green gardens the locals Palestinians have no other option then to travel over 2 km, daily, to get water for … Continue reading

An Israeli court rejected on Tuesday, the 28th of August, accusations of negligence over the 2003 killing of American activist Rachel Corrie, who was crushed to death by an Israeli army bulldozer in the Gaza Strip.
Corrie's family filed the lawsuit in the northern Israeli city of Haifa in 2005, accusing Israel of intentionally and unlawfully killing their 23-year-old daughter and failing to conduct a full and credible investigation.
In a lengthy ruling read out to the court, the judge said the state was not responsible for any "damages caused" as they had occurred during what he termed war-time actions. He called Corrie's death a "regrettable accident".
"I reject the suit," the … Continue reading
Arrest, Beit Ommar, Child Arrests, Hebron District »
At 04:00AM on Tuesday, 28th August 2012, Israeli soldiers raided homes in Beit Ommar and arrested two Palestinian youths. The victims were Mohamed Awad, 13, and Moayad Al Teer, 19. Witnesses report that six military jeeps took part in the raids, in which the boys were taken to an unknown location. Both boys are students, one still in school and the other at university. Awad, despite his extremely young age, has already spent time in prison after an arrest earlier this year. He was jailed for one month and made to pay a fine of 2000 shekels ($500) before his release. Minors are commonly taken by … Continue reading

Beit Ommar, Features, Hebron District »
Weekly demonstrations in Beit Ommar resumed on Saturday, August 25, 2012, after a month long break for Ramadan. The main focus of the demonstration was the upcoming verdict of the lawsuit filed by the family of the American activist Rachel Corrie against the state of Israel. Corrie was killed in 2003 when an IDF bulldozer crushed her during a demonstration against house demolitions in Rafah, Gaza.
Palestinians, Israeli and international activists gathered close to the Karmei Tsur colony, built on Palestinian land to the south of Beit Ommar. The protest was blocked by a group of Israeli soldiers, whose numbers increased throughout the demonstration until they outnumbered the activists.

Further House demolitions are set to take place after Israeli occupation authorities issued demolition orders for two homes in Beit Ommar, Hebron on Wednesday. The Israeli Civil Administration officials, accompanied by soldiers, issued the orders to Younes Z'Aqeq and Jawed Awad, whose homes are located near to the Karmei Tzur colony. Z'Aqeq and Awad have all the legal documents required to prove ownership of their land. These new demolitions follow the news, in June, that
Apartheid Wall, Betlehem, Betlehem District, Features »
A weekly demonstration against the ongoing construction of the Apartheid Wall took place in the village of Al Ma'asara, South Bethlehem City, on Friday.
Approximately forty demonstrators, including a contingent of international volunteers from PSP, carried banners and chanted anti-occupation slogans. They were confronted by a large number of Israeli soldiers, who forced them off the main road and then blocked their progress toward the sections of Palestinian land which construction of the wall endangers.
Confronted by a wall of heavily armed soldiers equipped with riot shields, the demonstrators sat on the ground in front of the soldiers for some time … Continue reading
Beit Ommar, Hebron District, ramallah district »
Once again the Palestinians celebrated this year's Eid Al-Fitr with an unwelcome guest.
Ramadan was not only a challenge to the Palestinians this year because of the thirty days of fasting, but because of the economic choke hold placed on them by the Israeli occupation. The holy month in the Muslim calendar has also suffered on a religious level, as many Palestinians were denied entry to mosques to pray.
Eid, the Arabic word meaning 'festivity' marks the end of Ramadan and is celebrated with family. Gifts, often money, are traditionally given and new clothes always worn. This month however, the Palestinian Authority in Ramallah has not been about to pay salaries on time to its nearly 180,000 civil servants. … Continue reading

Being Sick Sucks.
I hate being sick.
This week has been pretty awful in so many ways. After having such a good time with Lorelai on Friday night, I thought I was in for a good week.
I was kinda wrong.
My friends and I went out on Saturday night to BeBar, which was surprisingly straight. After my straight Friday night, it kinda wasn't what I was looking for, but oh well. I didn't drink much but I did hang with my boys for most of the night before we all bailed at around 1:00.
Monday was President's Day. Usually we don't get most federal holidays off, so in the absence of being told anything, I went in to work on Monday. It turns out we did in fact have Monday off -- which I found at around 11:30 a.m. -- so I bailed by 1:00.
I showed up for work again on Tuesday and put in my full day, but I noticed that I had a cough thrown in there that I hadn't had before. I had taken a sick day already in early February, so getting sick again would absolutely suck. But it's gone worse since. I've now taken two days off this week. I've coughed so hard in the few days I've seen stars. My chest is tight. I'm sucking down orange juice and chicken noodle soup like there is no tomorrow.
I'm going to try to get back to the office tomorrow, but my colleagues are kinda paranoid about catching things when one of us isn't feeling well, so I think they'd be just as happy if I didn't show up again.
I don't enjoy taking sick days. I actually get bored at home all day.
I have, however, seen a gazillion movies, some more memorable than others.
Taxi Driver: DeNiro as a young man was hot.
Reefer Madness: The Musical: Christian Campbell is hot. And it's a fun show.
Because I Said So: Except for the fact that almost all the credited men are quite easy on the eyes, the movie has no redeeming qualities whatsoever.
My Super Ex-Girlfriend: Cute premise, but horribly executed. I just felt nothing for Uma's character or for Luke Wilson's.
Meanwhile, I am also working on a work of short fiction which I plan to submit for publication in a gay magazine this summer. Wish me luck!

By RICH FOLEY
OK, people, only ten shopping days remain before Christmas and if you knew what you were going to buy, you'd have it already. Obviously, you're running low on ideas for the perfect gift, so here's a few possible presents I'm sure you haven't even considered.
How about, say, a bar of vibrating soap? If it wasn't already a bit of a task holding onto a wet, slippery lump of soap, Milwaukee's Bead Shop has added a small motor to make it vibrate as well. Just $10 a bar, and the possibility of electrocution comes at no extra charge.
Or, for those families that fight the never-ending battle of whether the toilet seat should be left up or down, Texan Bill Bradford offers the Johnny-Light Toilet Lamp. For only $14, Bradford's little brainstorm attaches on the underside of the seat and bathes the bowl in a fluorescent green light when the seat is up at night. Just the thing to help avoid late night surprises for one sex, while providing a clear target for the other.
While we're on the subject of water, how about an Aqua Tie? For only $95, inventor Gary Fisher offers up custom-made neckwear containing gravel, plants, a miniature scuba diver, air pump and five live goldfish. Sounds like fun, eh? Well, probably not for the goldfish.
If you are the type of person who wouldn't want to imprison goldfish inside a tie, the folks at PETA have an alternate idea, the Katcha Bug scoop and release tool. Available for only $7 from the PETA catalog, the contraption is said to allow you to safely catch pesky bugs and release them outside unharmed.
Or for the same $7, you could buy a pair of In-Souls, shoe inserts imprinted with Bible verses. Their slogan is "Stand on the Word of God." Wouldn't it be easier just to read the book?
For the music fan on your list, how about a watch with a band made from the guitar strap or leather jacket of a famous rock star? Musicians such as Bon Jovi's Richie Sambora and Flea of the Red Hot Chili Peppers have donated items to the project, with all proceeds going to charity. Each watch costs $120 to $160 and is numbered and embossed on the back with the celebrity's name and item the band was made from.
Have a thrill seeker on your list and $14,500 to spend? Then Australia's ScubaDoo company has the personal submarine for you. Able to dive up to 40 feet and travel at 3 mph, they haven't had an "incident" in 60,000 dives, the company's CEO claims. Care to test the odds?
Or perhaps you'd like to spend $20,000 on a suitcase? The Henk company has just such an item available. The suitcase is said to be made of carbon fiber and the same wood used in the dashboard of the Bentley automobile. I'd think the 20 grand would be better spent on a used Bentley, but I'm not the type of person who would spend $108,000 on a pocket knife, either.
That's right, $108,000 for a Swiss Army knife. As if the original weren't pricey enough, the makers of the Swiss Army knife are celebrating its 120th anniversary with a limited run of 120 special knives. Adorned with 800 diamonds set in yellow gold or platinum, prices range from $76,000 to $108,000. And they're going fast.
Maybe your gift recipient would rather display their precious stones where everyone can see them. In that case, a set of Asanti Jewel Wheels for their car is just the thing. Featuring 63,000 carats of cubic zirconium stones in any of four colors, only $250,000 will brighten up the ride of that hard-to-buy-for person. And get this, Asanti will throw in one year of bodyguard service at no extra cost, helping to ensure no one runs off with your friend's Yugo just to get the wheels.
Finally, how about a gift for that person who always stresses out over last minute shopping? Chicago's SkinnyCorp has the answer for the person victimized by the lousy drivers who seem to come out of the woodwork this time of year. Just $10 gets you a package of 20 "I Park Like An Idiot" bumpers stickers. Slap them on the cars of offending drivers and feel those holiday blues melt away. Bodyguard not included.- Dec. 14, 2005

Firts of all sorry for my bad english.
I know that there is enough applications like this, but I've decided to write my own application, as a beginning for learn embeded C++ and mobile devices development. So, because this is my first app. in such domain, please don't punch me .
May be "power manager" sounds hard, this app. do exactly the same as per example psShotXP, namely:
- turn off the screen of Your device
- put the device in suspended mode
- soft reset the device
- turn off the device (HTC devs.).
- turn on/off wifi
- turn on/off phone module
- turn on/off bluetooth (make discoverable/invisible)
- switch phone bands Auto-2G-3G
You also can create 4 shortcuts to the program with parameters:
0 - turn off the screen of Your device
1 - put the device in suspended mode
2 - soft reset the device
3 - turn off the device.
4 - turn on/off phone module
5 - turn on/off wifi
6 - turn on/off bluetooth
You can change the images of backrounds button separator and buttons, they will be located in "Images" folder after install. With one restriction: now the buttons are black, so if you change the back of main program, consider this ...
Remarks: To close the main window you must tap anywhere outside the buttons or in space between buttons. Also to close additional windows tap the Close button or empty space of window.
Discoverable/invisible mode for bluetooth is working on Microsoft stacks, on broadcom is to be developped (works just on/off bluetooth)
P.S. Supported screen resolutions: QVGA (240x320), Square (240x240), SquareQVGA (320x320), VGA(480x640), Square VGA (480x480), WVGA (480x800)

Legacy Agency launching baseball expo
Published November 11, 2013, Page 31
The New York firm is on the street with an 85,000-square-foot baseball show, aimed at both the business-to-consumer and business-to-business audiences, called "Baseball City."
Looking to draw from fans in Arizona for the 15-team Cactus League, the event is scheduled for March 15-16 at the Phoenix Convention Center.
While the event is not under the control of MLB, The Legacy Agency CEO Mike Principe described it as a combination of the annual MLB All-Star FanFest and a trade show for baseball equipment marketers. Activities will include an opening-night dinner with MLB legends, autograph sessions, live broadcasts from the show floor, hitting and fielding clinics, and various other interactive elements, along with the usual trading card and memorabilia vendors.
Ticket pricing is not finalized but will be around $25 per person, comparable to the MLB FanFest.
TLA plans cross-promotions with Cactus League teams, including possible ticket/show packages. TLA represents around 60 MLB players, including CC Sabathia, Jose Reyes and Adam Dunn.
"Around the country, you see some local fan fests by teams, but we think there's generally a six-month hole in baseball fans' calendars we can fill,'' said Principe, adding that he is using the PGA Merchandise and Comic Con shows as comparables. "We're pitching this as a great way for marketers to target baseball fans effectively without having to do multiple deals."
If the show is successful, TLA hopes to expand the number of days and then open a similar show in Florida, to attract Grapefruit League fans. TLA is projecting that tens of thousands will attend the two-day show.
Asking price on sponsorships range from $25,000 to $500,000. Sponsors on board so far include Canyon Ranch, Jumbo Sunflower Seeds, Nintendo, Pepsi/Gatorade, OYO Sportstoys, the Phoenix Visitors Bureau, RotoExperts and Univision Radio. Principe said his group is targeting the auto, banking, cellular, hotel, insurance, memorabilia, sporting goods and supermarket categories.
TLA also is seeking media partners to do broadcasts from the event.

Swisstrax Interlocking Floor Tiles
Never Has Flooring Induced So Much Garage Envy
A whole new level of garage gear obsession. [click on image to enlarge]
If you are anything like me, then your garage serves as a multifunctional part of your home. It's a place to park your vehicles, store your tools, hide your toys, and, just maybe, hide yourself. If your garage is anything like my garage, then its floor looks like absolute crap. Enter Swisstrax.
Originally hailing from Switzerland but now manufactured in California, Swisstrax represents Gear Patrol's new favorite innovation from the neutral nation, coming out of nowhere to unseat Ricola cough drops and holey cheese. Swisstrax offers six different styles of tile, some of which are available in fourteen different colors. Even better, their website features a floor designer whereby you can layout a custom floor and easily order all the pieces you'll need. Here's a tip: the square tiles lend themselves perfectly to oversized renderings of your favorite 8-bit game characters (think Mario, the size of a Mazda).
Their various designs suit garages, workout rooms, airplane hangars, and more. Each tile features a hefty complement of snap locks to secure it to its brethren, and a four point injection molding process that allows a Swisstrax floor to withstand up to 40,000 pounds of roll-over compression. Even if you could overwhelm this floor system with the sheer bulk of your man-toys, you'd be backed by a 12 year warranty. My favorite feature is simply a function of the tiles interlocking design. Unlike other floor coatings and coverings, the tiles are inherently portable and reusable. Consider me impressed.
The best way to test garage flooring, get a Ferrari F430. [Courtesy: Swisstrax]
Gear Patrol Hands-On: GP procured Swisstrax floor tiling for hands-on testing. We pinched, pulled, stomped, and even bit the Swisstrax with all of our combined might. Nary a scratch was made. Conclusion: this is one tough tile.
Cost: $3.95 per sq ft @ Swisstrax

"Aren't like half the guys in Miami basically Pitbull impersonators? I mean, the guy is truly nothing special, physically or musically."
Steve Vose, commenting on "Mr. 786"
Is That Pitbull?
Everyone wants to be Pit: Great idea taking a Pitbull impersonator to Dolphin Mall ("Mr. 786," Kyle Swenson, July 31), but I have to ask: Aren't like half the guys in Miami Pitbull impersonators? I mean, the guy is truly nothing special, physically or musically. Steve Vose
Not fooled: This guy doesn't look like Pitbull, but more importantly, he doesn't sound like him either! Man sounds like he has a permanent nasal infection. He isn't even really trying to impersonate Pitbull's vocals. I can't stand Pitbull, but I can at least recognize his mannerisms and signature sound. Angie Yruretagoyena
Beer goggles wouldn't help: He looks similar, I suppose, but this guy is from far Pitbull. The real deal is better-looking, younger, and although he does have a Miami Cuban accent, he doesn't sound that bad when he speaks English. I would certainly know that guy isn't the real deal. Even drunk! conceitedcuqui
Endangered Bay
You can stop this: There are almost 500,000 people living in Miami, so don't leave it up to these environmentalists to get their hands dirty to prove how the feds are wrecking Biscayne Bay with the new Port of Miami deep dredge ("Dredge Detectives," Michael E. Miller, July 31). Step in and protect your environment. With everyone speaking out, this ridiculous dredging can be terminated. So many people in small towns are now opposing big fracking and making a difference. We must all take a stand because our government will do nothing to protect our beautiful nation from corrupt and greedy corporations. nytronics83
Einstein knows what's up: Good work, mad men of Miami. Soon enough, through the collective, money-focused efforts of mindless fools such as yourselves, you will succeed in destroying the fragile fabric of the world's ecological systems that support our lives. Remember what Albert Einstein said: "Our entire much-praised technological progress, and civilization generally, could be compared to an axe in the hand of a pathological criminal." Stefano Alessio
Quit yer whinin': The Port of Miami has been dredged before, and Biscayne Bay was fine. The Port of Miami is 100 percent man-made, including Dodge Island, and the bay is fine. Those coral and other sea life in the port and Government Cut wouldn't even exist if it wasn't for the dredging. A little dirt, while unattractive, is temporary and will cause little or no permanent harm. All those miles of beaches are made up of pretty much the same stuff, and yet nobody complains about that. The fishermen and divers who complain about the visibility are just lazy and full of their own self-importance. Instead of moving a few miles to other areas while the dredging goes on, they want to stop the project because how dare they actually adapt? Once the dredging is done, I will return to Government Cut for what I expect to be some fine night-time fishing for tarpon and snook. Most of these self-appointed protectors of the environment are nothing more than haters of progress and commerce. Luddites! Anthonyvop1
Stop the massacre: This is truly depressing. With the fragile ecosystem in Biscayne Bay, you'd think they would have laws in place to protect events such as this from occurring. I guess it's too much to ask to have a natural environment full of fish and coral for future generations. Monica Lopez

Art Theft
What are they thinking? It's shocking that the brain trust behind such a successful company as American Eagle would OK the outright theft of well-known Miami street artist AholSniffsGlue for their stores ("Ahol Versus American Eagle," Carlos Suarez de Jesus, July 31). Didn't they even consider the consequences of literally stealing someone's intellectual property? I'm glad to see the artist take a proactive stand to protect his work. I can't imagine that the courts wouldn't rule in his favor. It should be a no-brainer of a decision. stephanie.kienzle
They're gonna lose: Even in videogames, you can't put textured street art in your products without paying the artists. I know a large game publisher that lost a lawsuit over that very issue. You can't take a graffiti mural and make money off reselling it. You will lose in any court of law, hands down. The clothing-store lawyers should have flagged this. Now they will come up with a settlement for the artist and move on. Just lazy and dumb of the campaign and advertisers involved. Insecure1
Share the bucks: Yes, he is a world-renowned artist. Yes, everyone knows his unique eyeball murals are sought-after, and only one can claim that art as his own. It's obvious AE had a bump in revenue sales due to Ahol's work. It's only wise to provide him with a percentage of the profits. I'm glad he's taking legal action. It proves he is not only protecting his hard work and making sure he is properly compensated but also protecting the other local artists' work from being monetized by corporations. We all know graffiti art is in high demand, but work this great and well-known cannot and should not be taken as a corporation's own and most importantly as a freebie! Good for AholSniffsGlue, and the best of luck. I know good will come out of this one way or the other. Amaury Cedeno

I'm a big fan of midnight screenings and, since I'm a night owl and up anyway, I see a lot of movies that way. Over the past few years they've become more commonplace, a lot of theaters run midnight screenings for almost every major release, and even some less major ones. But there won't be any for Sherlock Holmes.
Warner Bros. announced today that they're cancelling plans to screen Sherlock in midnight screenings on Thursday December 24th. There won't be any and so, we night owls, will have to hang out together at an early morning 10am screenings or something. I'm not sure what I'll do with myself. I guess I could try sleeping. I hear that works for some people.
In the case of Holmes I suppose it makes sense. The movie opens on Christmas Day, which means any potential midnight screening would happen on Christmas Eve while people are normally home tucking their kids in bed and dressing up in Santa suits which they'll wear while they sneak presents under the tree. Much as we all want to see Sherlock Holmes, there are probably more holiday appropriate ways to spend Christmas Eve.

text: This tea is courtesy of QUILTGUPPY! It is amazing. I wonder if the name means it is a green oolong as opposed to a roasted oolong, because it looks like oolong tea, smells like oolong tea, and has a flavor profile I would eхpect from oolong tea. This smells like butter, butter, butter…indeed, Bliss said like buttered popcorn including the salt and I can get that. The first infusion is very buttery, but there is a floral flavor in there as well. This is creamy and smooth, and if this is truly green, there is absolutely not a trace of the bitter edge green teas usually have. On the second infusion, the buttery note has taken a step back, and the flower has come forward. I will be drinking this all day. What a wonderful treat! Thank you, Quiltguppy!

EastEnders killer Ben Mitchell finally reaches breaking point later this month as he tells half-brother Ian Beale the shocking truth about Heather Trott's death.
Ben (Joshua Pascoe) is given reason to worry in the coming days when he wrongly thinks that Shirley has overheard a heated conversation between him and Phil regarding Heather's murder.
The guilty pair are shocked to see Shirley listening nearby following their row, so Phil ushers Ben away while he tries to work out how much his ex-partner has heard.
As a nervous Phil speaks to Shirley, the police pass them and ask if everything is okay. Phil assures them that all is fine, but watching from afar, Ben panics when he sees Phil talking to the police.
Fearing that his dad is about to turn him in, Ben rushes round to see Ian (Adam Woodyatt) because he's desperate for help. Ian is worried as Ben rambles on in a manic state, but he's soon left stunned when the teenager suddenly reveals that he killed Heather. What will Ian do?
EastEnders airs these scenes on Monday, May 14 at 8pm on BBC One.

Kylie (Paula Lane) has been absent from the cobbles since walking out on Nick's brother David (Jack P Shepherd) last month, leaving the locals to wonder whether they'd seen the last of her.
However, when Nick (Ben Price) and David head into a lap-dancing bar on a lads' night out later this month, Nick is horrified to spot that Kylie is working there!
It's clear that Kylie has resorted to her old ways because she's desperate for money. Will Nick be able to get David out of the bar before he discovers what his estranged wife is up to? And can Nick convince Kylie to come back home and sort things out with David?

Coming up on Emmerdale, rebellious teenager Sean Spencer gets confused and tries to kiss his mum's girlfriend Ruby Haswell.
The story begins later this month as tension rises among the Spencer clan with Dan's presence in the village causing problems.
Ali is furious when she discovers that Dan has secured a job at the factory, and she's even more annoyed when she speaks to the Sharma brothers and they refuse to get rid of him.
Later, Ali finds Dan in the café with Sean (Luke Roskell) and the former couple begin to argue as the teenager is meant to be at school.
As Sean storms out, Ruby (Alicya Eyo) goes after him - completely unaware that the schoolboy is developing feelings for her following their recent heart-to-hearts.
At the cricket pitch, Ruby comforts Sean about Ali and Dan. However, Sean misreads Ruby's signals and tries to kiss her. When Ruby backs away shocked, an embarrassed Sean runs off. Can they get over the misunderstanding?

Determined to show who's top dog, Brendan recruits Joel's help in teaching Walker a lesson.

The recent week's news of the birth of a prince George Alexander Louis- future heir to the throne of England- was everywhere. It was impossible to miss the hubbub surrounding the birth. All this attention has me thinking about what being pregnant with, giving birth to and subsequently mothering a future king- or queen- would be like. After a little thought, I'm confident in saying I'm glad I'm not the mother to a prince, and you should be too.
1.The nonstop media attention in the weeks leading up the birth of the royal baby was intense. Can you imagine people camping outside of the hospital your set to give birth at in the weeks leading up to your due date? Yikes!
2. Scrutiny over everything from pregnancy fashion to birth location was over the top. Thankfully no one really questioned our choice to have our first baby at the hospital and a home birth for our second.
3. Non-stop pressure to look good. Goodness, how much attention did the Duchess of Cambridge get over how good she looked when she introduced her sweet baby to throngs of journalists, well-wishers and paparazzi? Who wants to think about putting on a pair of heels just after giving birth?
4. Speaking of introducing the prince to the world, beyond a Facebook status and some phone calls and visitors most moms get to skip making a grand introduction. A few visitors here and there with their point and shoot cameras are definitely better than a gigantic group of reporters shouting questions and rapidly snapping photographs.
5. Something like a car seat mistake made by William and Kate as they left the hospital gets new coverage, with all the people of the world offering up their opinions. It's absolutely important to safely secure your baby in their car seat. It's also normal for brand new parents to make some mistakes. Parenting is a learning process, be thankful no one is going over our parenting slip-ups with a fine-tooth comb.
6. The idea of being in the same room as the Queen scares me even though It's unlikely I will ever be in that situation. The meer thought of giving birth to her great-grandson is panic inducing. Need I say more?
7. The world remembers Princess Diana as a perfect mother and living up to the beloved princess who died too soon would be a huge weight to carry. More than most new moms should have to handle.
8. Following royal naming traditions is boring and takes all the fun out of bestowing a name on your baby. I'm no fan of wacky names or weird spellings but I want the freedom to pick names not found on a pre-approved royal list.
9. Small children are messy and hard on things. Can you imagine having little hands and feet in a palace? I'd drive myself crazy trying to stop all the potential stains and scratches.
10. It's hard to shield your child from the relentless harshness in the world without even being a royal. Imagine trying to shield your child from the world when they basically live under a microscope with the public and the paparazzi following their every move.
Do you think parenting a royal is all it's cracked up to be?
