All 30 members of the crew of the Greenpeace ship, Arctic Sunrise, have been charged with piracy after attempting to board Gazprom's Prirazlomnaya oil platform in the Barents Sea. This Greenpeace direct action is one from their regular toolbox of direct action.
Last year, Greenpeace activists boarded thePrirazlomnaya, hanging a banner that read 'Don't Kill the Arctic' and closing down the oil rig's operation for fifteen hours. Three days later, other Greenpeace activists chained their inflatable boat to the anchor chain of the Anna Akhmatova. In a statement Greenpeace said that the ship, 'is not moving anywhere and so the platform workers can't get on-board, effectively stopping its preparations to drill for oil in the Arctic.' The response from Russian authorities then was not to prosecute, but this year the charge is piracy.
What is behind these charges of piracy and what chance of success is there? In this article I will explore some possible motives behind the piracy charges.
Political power
Arctic sea ice is disappearing, opening up the Arctic for resource and economic use. There are billions of dollars of petrochemical resources up for grabs and the Arctic shipping route is opening up. About two weeks ago the first cargo freighter travelled from Vancouver to Finland. Ironically, this ship was loaded with coal. Control of Arctic petrochemical resources is a major interest for Russia. In 2010, Russia tried to extend its territorial claims in the Arctic region by planting a Russian flag on the seabed and sending two expeditions to extend its claimed Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ). There are intense behind the scenes disputes between Russia, the USA, Canada, Norway and Denmark over who has access to the resources of the Arctic.
In September, the first Chinese freighter travelled past Russian territory and the Arctic Council has admitted China as a member this year. Again last month, Russia's only nuclear powered guided missile cruiser led a flotilla to the Novosibirsk Islands and reopened a military base that had been closed for 20 years. This base will oversee all maritime traffic across the Arctic Ocean.
Russia wants to benefit from, and control, the wealth that an ice free Arctic presents. This is also why Greenpeace was protesting the risk of environmental damage Arctic oil extraction represents, both to the Arctic environment and increasing global warming.
There are suggestions that the harshness of the charges is an example of Russia flexing power in the region. The Greenpeace activists are in this sense pawns in a geopolitical fight, where Russia is moving to position itself as the undisputed superpower in the region.
I would also consider that there is a more subtle force at play here. To explain this I will have to mention some terrestrial history. The 1960s was the birth of the modern environmental movement and activism. It took 20 years for a counter response to properly begin. This backlash against environmentalism developed in a co-ordinated way firstly in the United States. The first legislative part of this backlash can be dated to changes in the US Forestry legislation in 1988, when right-wing groups influenced the legislation to criminalise anti-logging protests. The development and activities of anti-environmentalists, called the 'wise use movement' in the US, has been extensively documented by Will Potter in his book, and website of the same name, Green is the New Red.
The crucial part of this anti-environmentalism has been the massaging of environmental activism into the realm of terrorism. The ideas of the wise use movement have been disseminating from the US across the world and one of those ideas is that of the 'ecoterrorist'.
When examined this word is nonsense. It is a word that conflates terrorism with the activities of environmentalists. It was coined and promoted by anti-environmentalist, right-wing groups. Ron Arnold, a respected cultural warrior against environmentalists says that he invented the word specifically to put the public fear of terrorism into the actions of environmentalists. He reason is famously quoted, '"We are sick to death of environmentalism and so we shall destroy it. We will not allow our right to own property to be stripped from us by a bunch of eco-fascists." … "Environmental activists not only are working to stifle America's economic growth, but they are a breeding ground for terrorism in the homeland". … "Our goal is to destroy, to eradicate the environmental movement ... We're mad as hell. We're not going to take it anymore. We're dead serious - we're going to destroy them." ... "We want to be able to exploit the environment for private gain, absolutely ... and we want people to understand that is a noble goal."
This is the core of the anti-environmental movement. One of their tools is to promote and employ ecoterrorism as a threat. In the US their success can be seen; the FBI considers environmental and animal rights activism as the number one domestic terrorism threat. News organisations and the media routinely use the term ecoterrorist. In Tasmania the word has been used by some segments of the community. As well, groups like 'Markets for Change' have been called 'economic terrorists'.
But at sea, the question is how to get environmental activists pushed into a similarly negative and harsh legal frame. The answer is piracy.
Piracy and Greenpeace
Firstly, I will mention that Greenpeace has been convicted of piracy and terrorism in the past, but more of that later.
The definition of piracy is found in the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea (UNCLOS). Article 101 defines piracy as,
'Piracy consists of any of the following acts:
(a) any illegal acts of violence or detention, or any act of depredation, committed for private ends by the crew or the passengers of a private ship or a private aircraft, and directed:
(1) on the high seas, against another ship or aircraft, or against persons or property on board such ship or aircraft;
(2) against a ship, aircraft, persons or property in a place outside the jurisdiction of any State;
(b) any act of voluntary participation in the operation of a ship or of an aircraft with knowledge of facts making it a pirate ship or aircraft;
(c) any act of inciting or of intentionally facilitating an act described in subparagraph (a) or (b).'
So where was the Arctic Sunrise? Greenpeace says they were outside the 12 nautical mile Russian territorial sea where domestic Russian law applies. However, they were within the Russian EEZ. The crucial point here is that if Greenpeace were 'in a place outside of the jurisdiction of any State'. The argument is complicated in that the part of the UNCLOS that contains the definition of piracy is guided by a general provision that defines the High Seas as; '… all parts of the sea that are not included in the exclusive economic zone, in the territorial sea or in the internal waters of a State, or in the archipelagic waters of an archipelagic State.'
Another point of contention is that the Russian prosecutors have charged all the crew with piracy. This indicates that they are taking the position that the crew were participating in a '… act of voluntary participation in the operation of a ship or of an aircraft with knowledge of facts making it a pirate ship or aircraft.' The question here is if the crew knew they were operating as pirates or they were acting from a deeply held moral belief that they were trying to prevent harm to the Arctic environment.
A further complication is that the UNCLOS definition defines piracy as 'against another ship'. The Prirazlomnaya oil platform is not technically a ship as it doesn't move under its own power and is not self-navigable; it is an oil rig that is towed and positioned by other ships.
Here I return to the hidden anti-environmental agenda. Russia is clearly trying to shut down environmental protest. The Prirazlomnaya oil platform has been subject to previous protest actions, as have other oil rig platforms in the region (such as the Liev Eriksson), so it is in the oil industries interest to close protest activity down. The Russian Prime Minister, Dmitry Medvedev, has said, 'Concern for the environment must not be a cloak for illegal actions, no matter how high-minded the principles motivating participants.' While Russian President Vladimir Putin has said, 'Of course, they are not pirates, but, formally speaking, they tried to seize an oil platform.'
Here both comments indicate that the protest action is considered illegal because it is an attack on the proper development of an economic resource. An action, identified by Medvedev and Putin as 'not piracy' and 'concern for the environment' has become piracy. It is a coupling of environmental activism and the worst crime committed at sea; piracy.
In essence it seems that the environmentally motivated act of protest, a political act, is now an act of piracy. The UNCLOS definition clearly defines piracy as an act 'committed for private ends by the crew or thepassengers of a private ship.' Private ends has been generally accepted in international law as profit. Environmental activism is excluded, for example, His Excellency Jose Luis Jesus, a judge at the International Tribunal of the Law of the Sea, has written that the, '[private ends] requirement seems to exclude sheer politically motivated acts directed at ships or their crew from the definition of piracy.'
Additionally his opinion was that, '…the "private ends'' criterion seems to exclude acts of violence and depredation exerted by environmentally-friendly groups or persons, in connection with their quest for marine environment protection. This seems to be clearly a case in which the "private ends'' criterion seems to be excluded.'
He concluded that such acts would qualify and be dealt with by using the maritime terrorism clauses in the international Convention for the Suppression of Unlawful Acts of Violence Against the Safety of Maritime Navigation (the SUA Convention).
This private ends definition was recently countered by the US 9th Circuit Court which ruled that the Sea Shepherd Conservation Society engaged in piracy while conducting their campaign against Japanese whaling in Antarctica in 2012.
There have been two debates circling within the international maritime law community recently. One is whether the 9th Circuit Court was correct in broadening the definition of piracy to include acts of environmental protest. The other is why the case proceeded against Sea Shepherd under the UNCLOS piracy law and not the SUA Convention.
Sea Shepherd was initially released from the charge of piracy but this was appealed and the new judge found against Sea Shepherd. Part of his reasoning used a prior conviction of Greenpeace for the crime of piracy.
In 1986, the Belgian Court of Cassation found Greenpeace guilty of piracy when Greenpeace activists interfered with tanker ships legally dumping chemical waste at sea. The court found that Greenpeace was acting for the 'private ends' of Greenpeace and was therefore subject to the piracy definition in UNCLOS. This was the first, and only, conviction of an environmental group under UNCLOS until 2012.
The 9th Circuit Court accepted this ruling and extended it by applying a common definition of 'private' based on the Webster American Dictionary. Private means not public, in that public is what is done by Government for public ends. Private is a person, or group, doing what they want to do. Under this broadened definition Sea Shepherd as a Non-Governmental Organisation (NGO), is by definition 'private' and is acting for 'private ends' in its protest actions and are pirates.
If the Russian prosecutors can overcome the problem of an oil rig not being a ship; if they can overcome the difficulty of whether or not an EEZ is 'a place outside of the jurisdiction of any State' and defeats the 'high seas' provision; if they can establish that the entire crew of the Arctic Sunriseare an 'organised criminal' group who were aware that their actions were piratical; then the charge of piracy will be relatively easy to prove, based on the broadened definition of piracy to include environmental protest.
None of this is set in stone, how the charges are prosecuted and the arguments will develop. However, one thing is clear; the charges are political and intended to shut down protest by levying the harshest charges and continuing the raising of environmental protest to piracy. Since the mid-2000s there have been some research articles arguing that piracy can be conflated with terrorism, particularly in relation to Somali pirates. It is conceivable that in a few years, marine based protests as done by Greenpeace and Sea Shepherd will be prosecuted as terrorism.
Finally, I said I would mention the terrorism conviction against Greenpeace.
In 2005, Greenpeace was protesting against genetically modified organisms (GMO) in Europe and they did what they do best; political theatre designed to raise public awareness of an issue- they hung a banner off the side of theheadquarters of the Danish Agriculture Association building in Copenhagen, Denmark.
The banner was, 'No to GMO swine', on the issue of GMO pig factory farming. Greenpeace was convicted under Danish Anti-Terrorism legislation concerning the financing of terrorism. The organisation was fined a total of 30,000 Kroner but the prosecutor said he had hoped for a fine of 100,000 Kroner to send a 'stronger message'...

• Speech by Reece Turner Saturday 5 October - Hobart Event in Solidarity with the Arctic 30
Thanks people for coming, my name is Reece Turner, and I'm a campaigner with Greenpeace.
Firstly, I'd like to acknowledge the traditional owners of this land - the Muwinina (mu wee nee nah) people - the original indigenous custodians of this land on which we are gathered.
Today we have come together in solidarity and support of 30 brave men and women including Colin Russell because they have risked their safety for a greater cause and now find themselves in a grave and unpredictable situation.
Today we'll hear a bit about Colin - how he got into the trouble he's in and the things he believes in which led him there. We'll hear from some people who know him best. We'll also hear from Australia's most highly regarded environmental activist Bob Brown about the importance of personal sacrifice in the struggles for environmental and social justice.
And before that I want to tell you about the reasons behind what Colin, the other activists and the Arctic Sunrise were doing in the russian arctic in the first place… and what exactly has happened to Colin and the other 28 in the last 10 days. I want to explain why I think that the battle to protect the Arctic will become the defining campaign of our generation.
10 days ago two Greenpeace activists took peaceful action at an oil platform far above the arctic circle, by attempting to climb and establish themselves on its outside structure.
The oil platform is owned and run by the state-controlled oil giant, Gazprom - a company that has teamed up with Shell in a bid to become the first to pump oil from the pristine Arctic, despite having no credible plan to deal with a spill.
The oil industry in Russia is one of the most environmentally devastating in the world. More than 30 million barrels of oil are spilt on land each year. That's seven times the amount that polluted the Gulf of Mexico during the 2010 Deepwater Horizon disaster.
As is clear from video footage released by Russian authorities, the Russian security officials reacted aggressively to the peaceful protest by waving armed guns at the activists, firing warning shots and targeting the activists with water canons before detaining them under armed guard.
Then, just 12 hours later as the sun was rising, armed Russian security forces boarded and illegally seized the Arctic Sunrise in international waters. At least 15 balaclava wearing, fully armed military personnel rappelled from a hovering helicopter onto the vessel, rounded up the crew at gunpoint and frogmarched them onto the deck before detaining them in the ship's mess.
It is most likely that it was a Russian crew member, Colin and a very gentle, softly spoke young lady called Alex, who I work with in our Sydney office, managed to lock themselves inside the radio room and get word to the outside world. As the action was unfolding, it was probablhy Alex who sent one last tweet which read
This is pretty terrifying. Loud banging. Screaming in Russian. They're still trying to kick in the door.
This is the most violent assault perpetrated upon Greenpeace since the bombing of the Rainbow Warrior in Auckland harbour in 1985 by French secret agents.
The Arctic Sunrise was then towed to the Siberian port of Murmansk, during which time the crew were cut off from the outside world. Upon reaching land all 30 were remanded in custody in separate cells and told that they would not receive bail. Russian law permits for them to be detained for two months, while the Russian authorities investigate charges.
But it was not until late on Wednesday that charges of piracy began to be laid. All 28 crew members including Colin plus two freelance journalists - a videographer and a photographer - have now been charged with piracy.
This charge carries a jail term of up to 15 years in Russia.
A large number of internationally renowned legal experts have been scathing of the russian authorities behaviour and of the charges of piracy that have now been levelled at the Arctic 30. In fact, in a speech to the Arctic council whilst these events were unfurling Vladimir Putin said: "...it's completely obvious that of course they (the Greenpeace crew) are not pirates."
In fact in news just in from a few hours ago the Dutch government has announced it will initiate arbitration proceedings against Russia under the UN Convention of the Law of the Sea to secure the release of 28 Greenpeace International activists, plus a freelance photographer and a freelance videographer and the Arctic Sunrise vessel which is flagged to the Dutch Govt.
But why the Arctic - what's going on up there that's so important?
It took about 5 days for the Arctic Sunrise to be towed from where it was boarded by russian authorities in international waters to the Russian military port of Murmansk on the north west Russia not far from the Sweden and Finnish borders.
During that time news came through celebrating a milestone in Arctic history. The first transport of a large freighter through the northwest passage between Canada and Finland had begun.
This is only now possible because the arctic ice sheet is receding. The Arctic has lost 75 percent of its summer sea ice volume over the past three decades.
Sending freight through the arctic between north america and Europe reduces shipping time by about a week and also enables larger vessels that wouldn't fit through the panama canal.
Ironically this freighter was carrying coal - one of the most polluting fossil fuels - the main driver of dangerous climate change.
So we have this crazy situation where as climate change melts the Arctic ice, oil companies are moving in to extract more of the fossil fuels that caused the melt in the first place.
Last year, the Dutch oil giant Shell undertook exploration activities in the US arctic in the narrow summer window when the ice recedes. This ended in disaster when one of their ageing rigs ran aground in rough seas off the coast of Alaska. They called off operations this year and instead announced a partnership with Gazprom in the Russian arctic where of course environmental safeguards are far lower. We know from previously classified US government documents that dealing with oil spills in the freezing waters is "almost impossible" and inevitable mistakes would shatter the fragile Arctic environment.
To drill in the Arctic, oil companies have to drag icebergs out the way of their rigs and use giant hoses to melt floating ice with warm water. If they are left to do this, a catastrophic oil spill is just a matter of time.
This incredible risk and the perversity of oil drilling in the arctic threatens not only the amazing wilderness of the arctic, the polar bears, narwhals and many other incredible species that exist there - it also threatens our very own survival.
This, I believe, is what Colin and the rest of the Arctic 30 were trying to draw attention to.
In the past few days I've been asked by people, well what did Greenpeace expect?
You're up in the arctic, provoking an incredibly powerful and proud Government who have huge wealth to gain from drilling for oil.
To that I would firstly say that the response from the Russian authorities was wildly disproportionate to the peaceful protests that is the hallmark of Greenpeace non-violent direct action.
But what I'd also say is that this question of "well, what did you expect?" is a sad reflection of the priorities of our Governments and indeed our own resignation that Governments will crack down on those standing up to climate vandals like Gazprom. We all expect that Governments like Russia and indeed Governments like Australia and others around the world will act to protect the short-term interests of fossil fuel giants at the expense of its citizens who will bear the brunt of climate change.
Colin and the rest of the Arctic 30 were there to present this choice to Russia in the arctic and sadly (although perhaps not surprisingly) Govt authorities sided with big oil over people. The fate of 30 peaceful activists charged with piracy in the Russian Arctic might come to define our era.
We need to change the expectation that Governments will back short term fossil fuel profits over people. But this expectation can't just be changed by Colin, Alex and 28 other people. It needs you to help them. Firstly, we need to get them out. We need to demonstrate that oil companies can not call upon Governments to lock up those who shine a spotlight on their criminal activities.
Starting today, I want to ask you all to stand with Colin and Alex and demand better so that we can expect better.
And there are two things you can do right now.
Firstly you can sign a letter to the Russian Ambassador in Canberra, demanding for the Arctic 30's release. Right now we are just edging up to close to 1 million people who have called on the Russian authorities to release the Arctic 30
Secondly, you can write your own personal message of support to Colin and all the Arctic 30 at the stall today.
Thanks again to everyone for coming out today.
I'd also like to send a special note of thanks to the media here today for respecting Colin's family's privacy. They are doing incredibly well however they would like to refrain from talking directly to the media at this time and I'd ask that the media continue to respect that request.
Solidarity events like this one are happening today in Sydney, Melbourne, Adelaide and Brisbane and in fact in over 140 cities in 45 countries around the world.
I'm sure that Colin, Alex and all the Arctic 30 will be incredibly touched by the turn out today and by the messages of support you can lend your voices to.
But to really do justice to them and their efforts we need to keep the spotlight shining on them, to remind others of what they were doing in the arctic and why they were there.
To the people who say "what did they expect" we need to help change their expectations.
We need to build a movement so strong that Colin and the Arctic 30 are seen by the entire world as heroes and not pirates. And it is only then that we will have a chance of creating a world where we expect that Governments protect our future instead of the companies who want to drill for oil in the Arctic.

We just detected a whole network of spamming/abusing bots who use Tor exit nodes to sign up for fake trial accounts - in Saas apps that have some inbound/outbound email functionality (like webmail services, helpdesk apps, email marketing apps etc.)
I'm talking tens of thousands of fake user accounts and trials.
Anyways... Long story short you might want to block Tor exit nodes from accessing your website or at least your landing pages/signup forms. At best they will ruin your metrics. There'are no paying customers there anyway.
If you're using a CDN - it probably has a a built-in way to do this. If not - you can quickly detect a tor-node IP by running a special DNS query, just google for examples in php/ruby/whatever.
PS. their intent is still unclear to me, seems like they're building a massive network of fake email addresses, probably used for fake social profiles used n click-fraud. Just my guess....
Interesting....I bet they are trying to exploit the PHP mail service that was just found to be exploitable. Make sure your servers are upgraded.
Rather than block Tor, you might want to consider making your service less abuseable. Tor is far from the only way that a miscreant can obfuscate their actual IP address, and it isn't even the easiest to use -- there's (still!) no shortage of open HTTP proxies, and trivially exploitable routers and IoT devices are out there in droves. If your service is abuseable, it will be abused, even if you block Tor, so you'd do better to fix your app than disadvantage people with a legitimate desire to mask their address in a futile attempt to stop abuse.
Yeah, yeah...
Banning TOR is like banning China. Of course, instead of banning China you could come up with some really intelligent intrusion prevention system, also find a smart way to qualify your trial accounts so all the "noise" doesn't distort your metrics, probably use a neural network to find patterns among legit uses so you can quickly detect non-legit uses of your app...
Or you could just ban China.
PS you have a point though
That's actually an excellent comparison: yes, you could block potentially hundreds of millions of potential customers, or you could fix your app to not be trivially abuseable. I encourage all my competitors to block China (and Tor).
According to various sources, China is only 6th as the source of web attacks (6%).
First one is US (20%). Let's ban US.
(Of course, I realize that the attacks are proxied and the source IP hence is not correlating to the real source country of the attack. Even less point in banning China then.)
I agree, China was just a (bad) example.
What I meant to say was: In a small company you don't have time for huge projects that have small impact. In a small company you literally can't measure a 10% increase.
Instead of hiring 10 developers and 5 sysadmins work for a 2 months to make your app invincible - you can spend your money& resources on... say, doubling your signups or conversion rates - and just ban TOR/China/Morocco/Egypt/[whatever destination you never had your B2B customers coming from] that annoys you
Once I get to the scale of Facebook... (well, ok, not Facebook... lets say... Trello?) then I'll worry about TOR
That is true.
However, as it was mentioned, the "simply ban them" doesn't actually solve anything, because the problem is not the source of the traffic, but the opportunity to abuse the application in particular way. If that opportunity exists, the abuse traffic will come one way or another.
The "ban them" can only help for a short time, when the attack has already started and you need to buy a time to apply some fix that makes the abuse harder to implement.
But eventually you'll have to think on how to make it worthless (or at least worth less) for spammers to create an account in your application.
And it doesn't have to be a large project. Smaller measures may eliminate 99% of abuse. Recently I heard somewhere how a SaaS doesn't allow to import a list of emails for explicit reason to prevent spamming. Something like this.
Hmmmm. Not trying to be rude or anything, just want to provide some help here (hopefully i can be successful at this, apologies if I'm not), but...
That is limited thinking.
You've already convinced yourself that stopping the abuse on your system takes an insurmountable amount of work + expense ( 10 devs, 5 sysadmins over 2 months ). Sure, sure... it was "just a figure of speech" to convey a point. I get it. But... in the end it's really not.
This is you setting in stone that there is no other way to stop "the opportunity to abuse the application" as @rfctr put it.
Regardless of what IP ranges you ban, you'll still have this problem. You really need to "fix your app to not be trivially abuseable" as @mpalmer states.
THAT is the solution to your problem. Take our advise for what it's worth to you (if anything at all), but at least be open enough to the idea that you have not yet learned what you don't yet know.
Hope that wasn't offensive, but instead helpful in some way
I agree. And I'm already doing that on the background - limiting the number of users you can add in a trial account, limiting the inbound email rate for trial accounts etc-blah-blah...
But these attacks still ruin my metrics. They distort my conversion rates. They make my AB-tests useless. I need to tell a legitimate user from an abuser at the signup page even before it gets into the app. Otherwise I'm unable to make informed decisions.
This ban is a business decision, not a technical one. Running a business sometimes requires you dump the idealistic shit and make a friggin decision. So I'd rather block TOR/China/Egypt/Morocco/Ukraine/whatever for a month or two and let them abuse my less protected competitors instead and forget about me, then I'll lift this ban. Probably
And before making that decision I checked the logs and the order history. No one ever buys my software from these locations, and certainly not from TOR. I'm selling b2b enterprise software, where people do the shopping from their corp. networks. Trust me, banning Tor has NO effect on the sales. Zero. Zilch. Nada.)
Similar boat here, we don't block outright, but we have background jobs that check each registration and flag those from TOR, known proxies, too many registrations from the same IP in X days etc. At the minute, the flagging restricts access to certain parts of the site but we're thinking of moving it towards a full shadow ban.
We've had very few false positives and it has helped us fight spammers and scammers significantly.
That's a problem of your SaaS, not of Tor users.Automated sign ups can happen inside or outside Tor.
Next time put a captcha in the sign up form.
So we had something similar not too long ago. Came in one morning and had something like 10k form submissions haha
Basically, our bad. We just did a horrible job on that form and left it abusable.
We made a business decision, too. We fixed the form. Took about 45 minutes or so. We used this: https://github.com/markets/invisible_captcha and it's 100% fixed the problem ever since.
It is based on the honeypot strategy to provide a better user experience. It also provides a time-sensitive form submission.
The strategy is about adding an input field into the form that:
shouldn't be visible by the real usersshould be left empty by the real userswill most be filled by spam bots

Lamborghini Aventador S
One look at the Lamborghini Aventador S spec sheet and you mightn't think we're shifting to a largely electric future — but then, this Lamborghini flagship isn't your average daily driver, and eco-consciousness isn't very high on its list of priorities. The updated model boasts a 740 horsepower naturally aspirated V12 engine, 40 more than its predecessor and enough to go 0 to 62 in 2.9 seconds. Around its carbon fibre monocoque chassis the design is refined to increase downforce, cooling, and decrease turbulence, all while looking as aggressive as ever. It's got not only four-wheel drive but also magnetorheological active suspension to compensate for roll and four wheel steering, a technology inspired by their Japanese rivals and that uses two electromechanical actuators to steer the rear wheels for greater stability at speeds and a tighter wheelbase while moving slow. Couple all of this with a ludicrously luxurious interior and you won't want to climb out.

What to watch at the Rio Games on Friday
After they saw their names come up on the scoreboard, they huddled together, hugged and jumped up and down before grabbing their USA flags from the stands. Phelps showed his emotions after winning his last ever gold- medal with his team US members while also setting a new Olympic Record. Russian Federation plays Brazil in the other match at 10:15 p.m.
Miami's Rollins wins gold in 100-meter hurdles final
After a race in which she, Nia Ali and Brianna Rollins completed a first-ever American sweep of the medals in the 100-meter hurdles, Castlin used her platform to discuss a topic that has affected her deeply. The United States had such strength in depth this year that they could leave the world-record holder, Kendra Harrison, at home and still sweep the race.
Michael Phelps Finishes His Historic Career with One Last Gold
Phelps, who now has 28 Olympic medals in total, had earlier told fans in a Facebook Live chat that Saturday would be the last time he graced the Olympic pool. "I've been able to do everything I've ever put my mind to in the sport and after 24 years in the sport, I'm happy with how things finished". "It's a nice number".
Chicago cops face firing over black teen's shooting death
All eight have been accused of violating the Chicago Police Department's Rule 14, which prohibits police officers from giving false information. The release past year of official police reports that directly contradicted video evidence of McDonald's shooting by a white police officer turned a spotlight on longstanding concerns about a "code of silence" in Chicago's police force, in which officers stay quiet about or hide possible misconduct by colleagues.
Andy Murray reaches quarter-finals in Cincinnati as top seeds tumble
But the world No. 2 managed to seal the victory in a match that lasted for 77 minutes, winning nine of the final 11 games to book a Round of 16 date with Anderson, who stunned French Richard Gasquet with a 6-2 6-4 victory. Before that, the 30-year-old Nadal had missed two months with an injured left wrist. "I was thinking, "Rafa please miss, I can not make a winner", he said of Nadal's fightback.

Take memtest. Run for 8 passes and test each stick in a know good slot for an additional 6 passes.
The goal is to test all the RAM sticks and all the motherboard slots.
Check your motherboard manual to ensure the RAM sticks are in the recommended motherboard slots. Some motherboards have very specific slots required for the number of RAM sticks installed.
If you get errors, stop the test and continue with the next step.
1. Remove all but one stick of RAM from your computer (this will be RAM stick #1), and run Memtest86 again, for 7 passes.
*Be sure to note the RAM stick, use a piece of tape with a number, and note the motherboard slot.If this stick passes the test then go to step #3.
2. If RAM stick #1 has errors, repeat the test with RAM stick #2 in the same motherboard slot.
*If RAM stick #2 passes, this indicates that RAM stick #1 may be bad. If you want to be absolutely sure, re-test RAM stick #1 in another known good slot.
*If RAM stick #2 has errors, this indicates another possible bad RAM stick, a possible motherboard slot failure or inadequate settings.3. Test the next stick of RAM (stick #2) in the next motherboard slot.
*If this RAM stick has errors repeat step #2 using a known good stick if possible, or another stick.
*If this RAM stick has no errors and both sticks failed in slot#1, test RAM stick #1 in this slot.4. If you find a stick that passes the test, test it in all the other motherboard slots.
If Part 2 testing shows errors, and all tests in Part 3 show errors, you will need to test the RAM sticks in another computer and/or test other RAM in your computer to identify the problem.
In this way, you can identify whether it is a bad stick of RAM, a bad motherboard, or incompatibility between the sticks.
Errors are sometimes found after 8 passes.
Do this test overnight, before going to bed.

Description: The project features a constant voltage, constant current NiCd charger originally in QST Dec82. The charger is built around 8 discrete transistors with a fine adjustment control of the current and voltage. The output current is 700 mA max. Requires a simple AC wall mount transformer for the power source.
Description: The project replaces the Chapter 27 Figure 68 battery charger that used the UC3900 IC. The UC3900 IC has been replaced with the UC3906 IC. This charger is designed to charge the 12 VDC gel cell type batteries between 1 to 8 AHr. The circuit is designed around the UC3906 charger IC and uses a TIP42 for the pass transistor. This makes a simple charger for those gel-cell batteries.
QST Dec97
Description: This circuit is designed to trickle charge small lead acid batteries. The board has positions for three outputs, each output turns on the charge current to each battery individually, and then cycles to the next battery based on a 555 timer. Power is supplied from a wall transformer. The major components required are a 555, 4017, three IRF511, and 7812.
73's Mar 00
Description: This is a 1.5" square board that uses a 7805 IC. The output is variable and can be adjusted to charge up to 10 cells in series.
73's Nov02
Description: This circuit has three level indicators: over range, in range, and under range. Circuit uses LM339 and 2N3904.
CQ VHF Fall02
Description: This is a simple circuit that will continuously source 13.8 VDC at three amps when the supply battery drops to 9.0 v. Circuit uses LT1070C
CQ VHF Aug97
Description: There are two versions of the power supply done in the article. The MOSFET IRFP064 is used for the pass device which is more efficient than a bipolar transistor. The regulator is the common 723 with a quad opamp 324 used for over voltage sensing and protection. An SCR is used to clamp the voltage. The 324 also shuts down the 723 in an over voltage condition thus not loading the supply.

It was 14 months ago that I was laid off. I've had many interviews for full-time positions with great companies. More than one seemed like a sure thing… but none of them came through. A couple of contracting jobs — and a lot of help from parents — filled the gap.
This was the longest job search I have ever done. It was certainly a brutal year. But the spiritual benefits are undeniable; Kay and I are in a much better place in our relationship with God, with each other, and with our church. So as much as saying so makes us cringe: It was worth it.
On Monday, I finally returned to work as a full-time employee. Thank you, PayPal!

Reminder to cherish freedom at Passover

At the end of our conversation, many years ago, Eric, then 87, was thanked for taking the time to share his story.
"No, no, I thank you," he softly replied. "You don't know what it means for someone like me to tell my story to someone like you. Now I know that when I'm gone there'll be one more person who heard it from an eyewitness."
It's been almost eight years since Eric died at 97, and today, the beginning of Passover, we share his story again.

Harry Potter Lego 4712 Troll on the Loose
Lego Harry Potter
2 reviews from the community
Review of "Harry Potter Lego 4712 Troll on the Loose"
Thanks to everyone for the Es, always appreciated even if I haven't had the chance to thank you. Also write under the same name elsewhere.
"Troll Alert!"
Harry Potter Lego has always been a hit with both of my children and we have quite a large collection of different sets now. 4712 Troll on the Loose was originally on sale at about £6 in 2002 I think but now it is referred to as a rare item and new, boxed sets can sell for about £38 whilst used, unboxed sets seem to sell on eBay for about £10.
I am not sure who chose this set as I don't think it looks particularly appealing. It is a tie-in set to Harry Potter and the Philosophers Stone film and depicts the scene, on Halloween, when a Troll enters Hogwarts and Harry and his friends end up challenging him in the bathroom.
There are two figures with this set; Harry Potter in his Gryffindor Uniform with a black cloak and a bluey grey Troll wearing a brown jerkin and loincloth. I think that the figure of the Troll is quite disappointing. It is immobile except for its right arm. The other arm doesn't move at all and its feet are rigid. I was quite surprised by this and I always think that it doesn't look very Lego-like, it really looks quite cheap and nasty. The clothes for the troll don't fit particularly well either and the loincloth always seems to ride up and it looks a bit strange.
The set consists of about 75 pieces. There are a good mix of different standard pieces with arches, slopes and normal bricks in grey, black and green. There are also several more interesting pieces including a Jack-o'-lantern head, a door with keys, a set of taps and flames to add atmosphere.
The set is relatively easy to construct on the 6x14 brown baseplate. The instructions are quite clear although we did have trouble when we originally built it as the door hinge brick sits at an unusual angle and at first we put it in incorrectly and the door wouldn't shut. The design is good with lots of strength around the corners so it is very solid once constructed and it looks very castle-like with ll of the arches.
The set has a couple of fun features including a sink that tips forward when it is hit by the Troll and a mechanism that drops bricks on the Trolls head. The Troll has a club made from several bricks whilst Harry has a wand.
This set comes with an instruction booklet depicting 14 stages of construction. What I really like about the instruction booklet is that it also gives some photographs at the back of other constructions that you can build with the same set. I think this is really useful when trying to encourage children to move away from just building the designated design but to try things of their own. There are some great ideas in these pictures including Harry escaping from a flip down wall whilst the Troll guards a door. The set can also be combined with the other Hogwarts sets as all of these original sets use the same bricks and colour schemes. It takes me about 6 minutes to build the set.
This set was probably the first that I came across that uses elongated bricks rather than just putting several bricks together. By that I mean one brick that is two wide and 5 rows high rather than using 5 bricks which are two wide and one high (if that makes sense!). I think this is a lazy way of building and probably cheaper but it means that the bricks are not so versatile.
My children enjoyed playing with this set. The building was ideal when they were getting used to following instructions. It is not a hard build but it does have some interesting things to manage such as the hinge bricks. They also liked re-enacting the scene but they both disliked the fact that the Troll couldn't "walk" so they could only make it jump up and down and it was always static if they were setting a scene. Last year my son was doing a lot of stop-motion filming and he used Harry Potter figures a lot in his films but the Troll was no good to him as it didn't move.
This is not one of the best of the Harry Potter sets. It has a few nice features and it is easy to build with a good selection of bricks that allow good free-style building as well. However this isn't a scene that just involves Harry so my children preferred it once they had sets including the other characters so they could act out the scene better.

Jon Gosselin and Nadya Suleman are not planning to star together in a new reality show, according to the Jon & Kate Plus 8 star's representative.
A magazine report had suggested that Gosselin and Suleman, dubbed "Octomom" by the press, were going to "try to fall in love" on the untitled programme.
The reality series was reportedly proposed by former Cheaters producer Bobby Goldstein.
However, a spokesperson for Gosselin has told Us Weekly that the rumours are "not true".
Suleman previously admitted that she thought Gosselin, who split from wife Kate in June, was "hot".

Celebrity Body Transformations 2011: The Ups And Downs
In any given year, you'll have your celebrity weight loss -- and gain -- stories, and 2011 certainly was no different.
What did set this year apart, however, was the candid way in which many stars approached their bodies' changes. Between embracing weight loss programs such as Jenny (the company formerly known as Jenny Craig), setting up their own organic line, or calling out past rivals on their weight gain, this year's batch of shape-shifting celebs has set the honesty bar high for 2012.

...who think it's OK to drop a thinly veiled (or not) pitch for their company or a full article into comments; are you high?
<Sigh> They probably aren't aware enough to click around the blog and likely won't see this post anyway, but that crap gets deleted. Just for the record. Almost four years in and we are still dealing with this.
If you've got something interesting to say (well, interesting may be a high bar...let's say "relevant but not entirely self-serving"), say it. If you are here to drum up clicks or busineess, beat it.

La gloria cubana i thank you.
I saved one of these in my humidor for a while, just to have it on my birthday. The cigar outlasted the beer, the scotch and most of my drinking buddies. It burned for no less than 2 1/2 hours. From start to finish a great smoke. It is definitely a must have in any collection. Overall I give it a 9.9999999!
i had the worst day of my life and all i wanted to do was forget about it, so what do i do i go to the cigar shop and i grab one of these and i smoke myself stupid and i felf really good about it thank you la gloria your my bestest lady.
I m so upset it took me a while to try this cigar. I had it s ugly cousin the Serie R Black and I really didn t care for them at all. This stick is at a whole other level and it s going to be one of my regular boxes from now on. This cigar is definitely full flavored and has some power BUT.........BUT it is incredibly enjoyable, smooth and never ever harsh. The aroma is wonderful and the cigar has plenty of different tasting notes though out he beginning with earth and espresso, then going to deep dark chocolate with some pepper and an almost charred taste or toast but trust me it works in harmony and is never ever harsh. I ve smoked about 6 from this box and about 5 before I purchased this box and have never had a burn issue and the draw has been great. This puppy will burn for a couple hours but it;s time well spent. Just remarkable!
La gloria cubana i thank you.
Great cigar, I really love this stick; this and the La Flor Dominicana are my faves but there are a lot of these gars that come apart. In My humble opinion, its better to keep your Humidor moist for these puppies. However, a moist,soft, and fresh one of these, is hard to beat.
For the experienced smoker this "Le Grande Boy" is ambrosia! It is bold, without being too bold (like the new Camacho "uncles"). Earthy tones, hints of expresso and pepper (and maybe just a touch of nuts!). Enjoy it with a glass of your favorite bourbon or single malt scotch, but be forwarned, this beauty demands a commitment because it can last up to 3 hours! At about five bucks a stick, this baby is a bargain.
I started smoking cigars about 5 years ago and got one of these in a sampler pack and WOW, The best cigar and most consistant I've smoked yet. Nice even burn, strong creamy tast and very affordable.
This is a commitment that won't let you down a full bodied wonderfully tasting cigar. One of the best I have tried. It rates with the Opus X very well. In the last year I have smoked a lot of different cigars but none that compare. Even my snob friends that insist on the cubans agree. They are be happy to get one of these every time.
The La Gloria Cubana Serie #7 Maduro is a exceptional smoke. It is full of flavor and so relaxing. Take your time with this one and enjoy yourself. Don't rush the groove, ya dig?
This big beautiful monster is perfect for the golf course. Also goes get with a Guiness

Routine: DJ Seap Live Drumming + Ableton Push + Midi Fighter 3D
One of the most obvious places for controllerists to appear is behind a drum kit. Drummers have been working MIDI controllers into their rigs for over 20 years. Today we're sharing a performance by a drummer, DJ Seap, who's integrated an Ableton setup into a live performance drum routine. He writes:
"I've been working on creating a full "one man band" style #controllerism / Live Drumming / DJ show as an ongoing project quite a while now. Finally getting to the point where I have the gear worked out, the raw musical material, and the method (based in Ableton) […] Here is a little rehearsal video of one of my tunes arranged for live playability "Pizzo Discipline".
In this video I'm using a minimal setup powered by Ableton Live with a DJ Tech Tools Midi Fighter 3D controlling a drum rack and effects, a Roland SPD-30 "Octopad" with a few extra triggers controlling a series of Ableton drum racks for the all drum parts, and an Akai Ableton Push to control clips and some effects. The full show will incorporate some acoustic drums with triggers but this is the portable setup, ready to hit anywhere."
Want more to watch? There's a ton more great DJ/controllerism routines here.

Jacksonville Jaguars: Third-year veteran David Garrard, the promising young Jacksonville Jaguars quarterback who drew trade inquiries earlier this offseason, will undergo surgery next week to treat a recently diagnosed intestinal disease that has slowed him for the last couple months.
Garrard is battling Crohn's Disease, a chronic and incurable disorder that is marked by inflammation of the digestive or gastrointestinal tract, and which often leaves victims in severe pain. While surgery will not cure Crohn's Disease, it often alleviates at least some of the symptoms, and grants patients a degree of relief and normalcy.
The Jaguars' No. 2 quarterback, who was hospitalized last weekend because of severe pain, will have the surgery next Thursday and the rehabilitation period is expected to be about six weeks. Garrard and team officials are confident the youngster will be ready for training camp in late July, but that remains to be seen.
Ray Pinney, a Pittsburgh Steelers offensive lineman in the 1970s, battled the disease but recovered sufficiently to enjoy a relatively long and productive career. The surgery that Garrard has scheduled will remove the diseased area where the intestines meet the colon.
"The best thing is for me to go ahead and have the surgery, to remove the sick area, and be done with it," Garrard told the Florida Times-Union. "There shouldn't be any problems. I could have lived with it if I was a normal person."
A fourth-round draft choice in 2002, Garrard remains penciled in as the No. 2 guy on the depth chart, behind starter Byron Leftwich, but the Jaguars recently signed unrestricted free agent Doug Johnson, formerly of Atlanta, to bolster the position.
Garrard, 26, is viewed as a young player with an intriguing upside. He has played in just six games in two seasons, with one start, and has completed 32 of 58 passes for 317 yards with two touchdown passes and two interceptions.
New England Patriots: New England wide receiver Bethel Johnson, who as a rookie in 2003 led the AFC in kickoff return average, will be sidelined for an indefinite period following surgery earlier this week to treat a chronic intestinal problem that has plagued him since college.
The team's second-round pick in 2003, Johnson missed considerable time during his tenure at Texas A&M because of the problem. He endured multiple surgeries including an operation in which his spleen was removed. Sources close to Johnson said that, while he will miss much of the Patriots' offseason conditioning program, he should be ready for the beginning of training camp.
One of the league's fastest players, Johnson averaged 28.2 yards on kickoff returns as a rookie and had one runback for a touchdown.
Seattle Seahawks: The Seattle Seahawks have hired veteran NFL front office executive Jay Nienkark to oversee the team's salary cap.
Nienkark, 40, was fired by the Arizona Cardinals two weeks ago in a modest shakeup of the team's front office. He had been with the Cardinals for 12 years and that included seven seasons in which he managed the Arizona salary cap. As was the case in Arizona, he will be involved in Seattle with some contract negotiations.
Seattle has been without a cap manager since Mike Reinfeldt resigned three months ago. Other Seahawks officials have handled negotiations and cap chores since his departure.
Carolina Panthers: Restricted free agent safety Travares Tillman, who played in seven games for Carolina in 2003, has re-signed with the NFC champions.
The three-year veteran, claimed on waivers by the Panthers last September after he was released by the Houston Texans, signed a one-year, $628,000 contract. The deal is equal to the amount of the restricted free agent qualifying offer the Panthers made to Tillman in March to retain a right of first refusal.
A former Georgia Tech star, Tillman entered the NFL as the second-round pick of the Buffalo Bills in the 2000 draft. He was released by the Bills, however, after two seasons and was out of the NFL in 2002. With the Panthers last season, Tillman played mostly on special teams and had four tackles on the kickoff and punt coverage units.
For his career, Tillman has 55 tackles, one interception, five passes defensed and a forced fumble. He has appeared in 35 games and started 10 of them.
Tennessee Titans: The Titans got a glimpse Thursday of what they missed for most of the 2003 season: Joe Nedney kicking the ball deep.
Nedney tore the anterior cruciate ligament in his non-kicking
right knee in the season opener last year while making a tackle.
Having been through such an injury before, he chose season-ending
surgery to repair his leg.
The Titans' doctor cleared him after a physical Monday, and
coach Jeff Fisher held him out of Tuesday's organized workout as a
precaution before letting him kick away Thursday.
"We saw everything that we missed last year from him -- the
distance and the height and the quickness and the leg strength,"
Fisher said. "He is obviously back, and it's nice to have him

The Wechsler Intelligence test has different versions for infants, children and adults. They are designed for infants, children and adults. They are used widely as part of the criteria for admissions in schools and to measure the intelligence and/or mental gifts and disabilities in adults.
This piece of site shall help you to know what the Wechsler Intelligence Test is, its different categories and the purpose of its administration.
The Intelligence is sometimes referred to as the cognitive ability of an individual to assess, analyze and then to react accordingly. Scientists agree at different degrees that it is an ability that can be measured.
Different theories can be put together to understand what intelligence actually is –
Or is it all of the above?
The Wechsler Intelligence Tests actually comprise of, not one, but three individually conducted intelligence tests that measure the intelligence and different mental and cognitive abilities of individuals from ages 2 years to adulthood. These tests can be categorized as follows,
This test is conducted as part of the admission tests for children who fall under the age bracket of 2 years and 6 months to 7 years and 3 months.
This test is conducted as part of the admission tests for kids who fall under the age bracket of 6 years to 16 years.
This test assesses individuals who are 16 years or older.
The original Wechsler-Bellevue Intelligence Scale, designed in 1939, has been branched out into the above stated categories for specific testing. The three tests have, therefore, been derived out of the same original test.
The Wechsler IQ Test that is specifically designed for per-schoolers and young children, whether it is the original or revised edition, is administered to help place the children adequately according to their mental capabilities. While it can be used to determine the presence of a God-gifted ability, it can also be effectively used to find a learning disability or perhaps restricted mental development.
The Wechsler IQ Test that has been designed for the adults can assess the presence of a vocational ability, gifted intellectual ability and on the other hand it can also determine whether or not, the individual is affected by organic deficits.
All of the Wechsler Intelligence Tests are organized and administered by a clinically and professionally trained examiner. He or she can be a certified psychiatrist or psychologist who will not only administer, but also score and interpret the results of the tests.
The Wechsler IQ Tests, both for children and adults, are categorized into 5 performance and 6 verbal subtests. Each complete test will take approximately one hour. The scores are compiled alongside and are accumulated at the end of the test after which a Full Scale IQ score is yielded.
This test consists of 6 verbal tests

Practice tests can be found both online and offline; however, they are always, and should be, conducted by trained professionals who can draw out and comprehend the results.

Some IQ test biases are strong despite huge improvement in the testing industry. Yet we need to take their results for average lot with a grain of salt.

The test is language-biased. If I had native English or A+ vocabulary, I would've scored higher.

In this article, we are looking at walkers and their various features, including how to use them correctly.
A walker is typically used if weakness and balance problems cannot be corrected by using a cane. Walkers provide much more stability than canes, and decrease the amount of load taken through the legs. Bigger and heavier than canes, they require more room to maneuver, and cannot be used on stairs.
There are many types of walkers, and selecting the best one depends on the level of mobility and where the walker will be used -indoors, outdoors, or both.
The three most common types of walkers are standard, two wheeled and four wheeled.
To ensure the walker is at the correct height, place both hands on the handgrips of the walker. Elbows should be slightly bent and the handgrip should be at wrist level when your arms hang by your sides. If not, the height of the walker needs to be adjusted.
Standard Walker
This is the moist stable type of walker, but the user must have enough strength and balance to safely lift the walker, place it one step length forward, and step into the walker. This walker is designed for short distances, mainly indoor use, and to help with transfers (getting from one surface to another, such as on and off the toilet).
Two-Wheeled Walkers
These walkers are not as stable as standard walkers, but are more stable than four-wheeled walkers. The wheels are typically in the front, and can be mounted in a fixed position or on a swivel caster, which increases the maneuverability of the walker. The back can either be posts or glides (sometimes called skis). Sometimes slow-down brakes on the back of the walker can be added, if you find the walker is "getting away from you" when you are walking. It is best to choose a collapsible walker, to make it easier to lift in and out of a vehicle.
Four-Wheeled Walkers
These types of walkers are easy to maneuver and are equipped with a seat, basket and tray to carry items. They generally have larger wheels, which makes them much safer for outdoors and longer distances. Hand brakes will ensure that they can be easily engaged and disengaged. This type is the heaviest of the walkers, and does not fold flat, which can make it difficult to lift in and out of a vehicle.
General points to remember when using a walker:
