A senior government official in India said that General Motors violated testing regulations. GM is being investigated by a government-appointed panel for its recall of 114,000 Tavera vehicles. The government official, who asked to be anonymous because the information is not public, informed Reuters that the report indicates that it is "in the nature of corporate fraud."
The official added that GM was responsible for whatever happened and that the testing labs made no wrongdoing. In a statement, GM India said that those responsible and the violations of company policy have been identified. He said that under the present provisions, the company may be fined around 100 million rupees ($1.6 million).
He added that the report, which India's roads ministry will use, doesn't give the names of GM officials. The case is linked to the recall last July of 114,000 India-built Tavera SUVs due to issues related to emission standards and other regulatory specifications. Production also stopped. Last July, The Economic Times reported that GM had informed the government that workers had installed low-emission engines in the vehicles sent to be inspected.
GM terminated several workers, which include Sam Winegarden (vice president for global engine engineering), in July after an internal probe into the recall discovered company policy violations. The findings of this panel were reported last Tuesday on The Times of India and the Hindustan Times newspapers.
In a statement last Tuesday, GM India said that it determined there was an "emissions problem" and that people were held accountable and that Indian authorities have been advised. However, GM India said that it can't comment further as it hasn't received a copy of the report or been contacted by the government.

Sports boutique Onside Law has picked up a brace of football sponsorship deals as the FA Cup Final clash between Chelsea and Manchester United draws closer.
Onside Law advised coach company National Express in its agreement with the Football Association (FA) to be the official transport supplier to the new Wembley Stadium.
The agreement will run until 2010 and will see National Express adding 13 new coach routes to the stadium from 43 towns in the UK. Bird & Bird acted for Wembley Stadium on the deal.
The firm also acted for National Express on its deal with the FA to become the official travel partner of the England national team and FA Cup. This agreement will also run until 2010.
The FA looked to its in-house team to complete the deal rather than using its relationship firms DLA Piper and Bird & Bird. The deals were done to a tight deadline to be ready in time for the FA Cup semi-finals in mid-April.
Tony McDonald, group legal adviser at National Express Group, said: "For our first major foray into sponsorship we found Onside Law's industry knowledge invaluable." Onside Law was set up in 2005 by three lawyers from IMG, the sports management company. The founding partners are Jamie Singer, Oliver Hunt and Simon Thorp.
The firm's first big case came in the IP and competition dispute between Adidas and the International Tennis Federation last year.
Onside Law picked up a choice mandate from Fédération Française de Tennis, the organiser of the Roland Garros tournament, in the High Court battle. Other high-profile clients of the firm include Nick Faldo, Tim Henman and former England manager Sven-Goran Eriksson.
Bird & Bird has steadily grown its UK sports team, bringing in rated Hammonds' sports head Jonathan Taylor and his team at the beginning of the year.

Took out a trial period with 1&1 so I could set a private website up for a club my Dad is a member of. The club then decided they didn't really want a website so I cancelled whilst in the trial period.
Took one phone call, got through to a very polite American male, spent 1 or 2 minutes on hold after telling him I wanted to cancel and he carried out the cancellation there and then. He said I'd get an email confirming cancellation, it arrived 30 seconds later.
All in all they did exactly what they said they'd do.

Oscars cave in: Academy announces mass overhauls to membership and voting rules to promote diversity after boycott threat over lack of black nominations
- The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences is facing a boycott
- Actors Will and Jada Pinkett Smith criticized the lack of Oscar diversity
- Announced they would not be attending the ceremony in February
- Best Supporting Actor nominee Mark Ruffalo has signaled his support
- Best Actress nominee Charlotte Rampling also waded into the debate
- She said 'Maybe black actors don't deserve to be on the final stretch?'
- Growing anger around the issue ahead of the February 28 ceremony
- Sir Michael Caine, Reese Witherspoon and William H Macy also spoke out
- See full coverage of the Oscars at www.dailymail.co.uk/oscars
The film academy is pledging to double the number of female and minority members by 2020, and will immediately diversify its leadership by adding three new seats to its board of governors.
Academy president Cheryl Boone Isaacs announced the changes on Friday, following a weeklong storm of criticism and calls for an Oscar boycott after academy members nominated an all-white slate of actors for the second year in a row.
'The Academy is going to lead and not wait for the industry to catch up,' she said in a statement.
The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences' 51-member board of governors unanimously approved a series of reforms late Thursday to 'begin the process of significantly changing our membership composition,' Isaacs said.
The number of minorities currently serving as members of the academy has not been revealed.

Academy president Cheryl Boone Isaacs announced the film academy is pledging to double the number of female and minority members by 2020 and it will limit members' voting status to just ten years
Several of Hollywood's most prominent African-Americans, including Will Smith and Spike Lee, have said they won't attend this year's Oscars, which is to be hosted by Chris Rock.
Other changes include limiting members' voting status to a period of 10 years, to be extended only if the individual remains active in film during that decade.
Lifetime voting rights will be granted only to Academy Award nominees and winners, and to members after three ten-year voting terms.
Previously, all active members received lifetime voting rights.
Act of rebellion: Magic Mike XXL star Pinkett Smith released a video Monday announcing she would not be attending the Academy Awards due to a lack of diversity among this year's nominees
Blunt talk: The Concussion star said he believes the American film industry is moving in the wrong direction when it comes to diversity
No-show: Spike Lee has revealed he plans to go to a Knicks game rather than the Academy Awards in protest over the lack of diversity among this year's nominees
The organization also plans to diversify its leadership beyond the board of governors by adding new members to key decision-making committees, and further diversify its membership with a global campaign to identify and recruit diverse talent.
Reaction came swiftly. Ava DuVernay, director of last year's best picture-nominee 'Selma,' tweeted that the changes were 'one good step in a long, complicated journey for people of color and women artists.'
She added: 'Shame is a helluva motivator.'
'Marginalized artists have advocated for Academy change for DECADES,' DuVernay wrote. 'Actual campaigns. Calls voiced FROM THE STAGE. Deaf ears. Clòsed minds.'
And director Rick Famuyiwa, whose films include 'The Wood,' ''Brown Sugar' and last year's 'Dope' commented: 'The devil is in the details.'
The diversity issue has been dividing Hollywood all week and looks set to dominate discussions surrounding the Chris Rock hosted ceremony scheduled for February 28.
Black stars fail to feature on any of the four lead and supporting acting categories. It follows a 2015 shortlist which was equally homogeneous.
Charlotte Rampling is up for her first Oscar for 45 Years, seen here. During a Friday radio interview on Europe 1 radio station in Paris, where she now lives, Ms Rampling said of the boycott: 'It's anti-white racism'
Not pulling any punches: George Clooney, pictured here with his wife, said that the film industry was moving in the wrong direction on the diversity issue
The only black projects nominated for an Oscar - What Happened, Miss Simone? for documentary and Straight Outta Compton for screenplay - have all white nominees.
Jada Pinkett Smith publicly addressed the issue with a video on her Facebook page which helped kick-start the debate about this year's lack of diversity.
The Magic Mike XXL star said she would not attend the ceremony over the issue.
'I can't help ask the question: is it time that people of color, recognize how much power and influence we have amassed that we no longer need to ask to be invited anywhere,' she said.
'I ask the question have we now come to a new time and place, where we recognize that we can no longer beg for the love, acknowledgement or respect of any group.
'That maybe it is time that we love, respect and acknowledge ourselves in the way we are asking others to do, then that that is the place of true power. I'm simply asking the question.'
Her husband Will backed her in an appearance on Good Morning America on Thursday.
'I think that diversity is the American superpower. That's why we're great,' he told Robin Roberts in the exclusive interview.
'So many different people from so many different places adding their ideas, their inspirations, their influences to this beautiful American gumbo. … so when I look at the series of nominations of the Academy, it is not reflecting that beauty.'
And on Friday, Oscar-nominated British star Charlotte Rampling Friday launched a furious attack on black actors who want special treatment in Hollywood – accusing them of 'anti-white racism'.
'In the end you can't vote for an actor because he's black': Sir Michael Caine said in response to the growing diversity debate
A full listing of The Academy's membership and their demographics are not publicly released but previous studies and reports have revealed more about the group's make-up
In 2012, the LA Times found there were 5, 765 voting members, 94% of whom were Caucasian and 77% male
Only 2% at that time were black and less than 2% were Latino
The newspaper found the group had a median age of 62
In 2013 they found 93% white and 76% male and the average age inched up to 63
Membership is now believed to have risen over 6,000 but ethic minority breakdown of members in unavailable and not every member has to vote
The Economist found no actors from ethnic minorities were nominated in 1995 and 1997 or any year between 1975 and 1980
Top secret: Information on the membership of the Academy is hard to come by
95% of nominations in total have gone to white actors
Following Friday's announcement, The Academy is now pledging to double the number of female and minority members by 2020'
And it will immediately diversify its leadership by adding three new seats to its board of governors.
Other changes include limiting members' voting status to a period of 10 years, to be extended only if the individual remains active in film during that decade.
Each award is broken up into 17 branches i.e. the acting branch and the directing branch
Academy members qualified in each respective area vote on the nominees for awards in that area i.e. actors vote for the acting nominees, directors vote for the director nominees.
One exception is that all voting members can vote on their top 10 best picture nominees and Animated Feature Film and Foreign Language Film are voted on by special screening panels
Nomination ballots are sent out in December and returned in January
The acting areas are voted for by the largest number of people
Once the nominee lists are drawn up, members get to vote once for every award
They are discouraged from voting if they haven't seen the work or feel ill-prepared to make a judgement but are not barred
Final ballots are mailed out at the end of January and need to be filled in and returned by a week before the ceremony.
Voters were never required to retire - but that also now changes following Friday's announcement.
Lifetime voting rights will be granted only to Academy Award nominees and winners, and to members after three ten-year voting terms.
Previously, all active members received lifetime voting rights.
Three members are appointed as governors of their relative branches. That will now change by 2020 to include an extra three governors.
Notable governors include Annette Bening and Tom Hanks in the actors branch; former Sony chief Amy Pascal in the executive branch and Zero Dark Thirty director Kathryn Bigelow is in the directors branch
The Academy will now weigh new rules to try and enhance diversity, the LA Times has reported, which could include expanding the list of acting nominees and changing the way new members are recruited
But Ms Rampling, who has received her first Oscar nomination for her role in '45 Years', said this kind of politically correct thinking was a form of racism in itself.
Speaking on Europe 1 radio station in Paris, where she now lives, Ms Rampling said: 'It's anti-white racism. Maybe black actors don't deserve to be on the final stretch?'
Referring to the vanity of some actors in general, Ms Rampling added: 'There will always be problems – he's too handsome, he's too black, he's too white…'
Her views seemed to be supported by Sir Michael Caine, who spoke out against race coming into the nomination process.
He told the BBC: 'There's loads of black actors. In the end you can't vote for an actor because he's black. You can't say 'I'm going to vote for him, he's not very good, but he's black, I'll vote for him'. You have to give a good performance and I'm sure people have. I saw Idris Elba (in Beasts Of No Nation)... I thought he was wonderful.'
The two-time Academy Award-winner also said black actors should 'be patient'.
Since the Will and Jada Pinkett Smith spoke out, numerous other stars have spoken out.
Chorus of critics: (L to R) Idris Elba , Whoopi Goldberg, David Oyelowo and Snoop Dogg have condemned the Oscars' lack of diversity among the nominees
'This institution doesn't reflect its president and it doesn't reflect this room. I am an Academy member and it doesn't reflect me, and it doesn't reflect this nation,' - David Oyelowo
'You have to ask the question – are black people normally playing petty criminals? Are women always the love interest or talking about men? Are gay people always stereotyped? Are disabled people ever seen at all?' - Idris Elba
'... the idea that we could go two years in a row, where 40 actors could be nominated and none of them were black, is just crazy,' - Michael Moore
'I can't help ask the question: is it time that people of color, recognize how much power and influence we have amassed that we no longer need to ask to be invited anywhere,' - Jada Pinkett Smith
'How is it possible for the 2nd consecutive year all 20 contenders under the actor category are white? And let's not even get into the other branches. 40 white actors in 2 years and no flava at all. We can't act?! WTF!!' - Spike Lee
'Hollywood is like the Rocky Mountains, the higher up you get the whiter it gets and this year's Academy Awards will be yet another Rocky Mountain Oscar,' - Rev Al Sharpton
'Somebody asked was I gonna watch the mother****ing Oscars. F*** no! What the f*** am I gonna watch that bulls*** for? They ain't got no n***** nominated. All these great movies and all this great s*** ya'll keep stealing from us. F*** you! F*** you!' - Snoop Dog to TMZ
Denial: Actress Janet Hubert (left) who played Will Smith's Aunt Viv on the Fresh Prince of Bel Air has criticized the complaints of the star's wife Jada Pinkett Smith, George Clooney and Director Spike Lee (L-R)
'Why is this a conversation that we only have once a year? Every year we get all fired up and then the rest of the year nobody says anything.... So I'm not going to boycott, but I'm going to continue to bitch as I have all year round because I'm tired of seeing movies where no one is represented except a bit of the population, not all of it,' - Whoopi Goldberg
'If you think back 10 years ago, the Academy was doing a better job. Think about how many more African Americans were nominated.... And all of a sudden, you feel like we're moving in the wrong direction' - George Clooney
'Our boys are being shot left and right. People are starving. People are trying to pay bills. And you're talking about some f*****g actors and Oscars. It just ain't that deep' - Janet Hubert
'When Jada comes out as Gay and her beard husband admits his first marriage ended when she walked in to him **** servicing his Sugar Daddy Benny Medina ..then I will listen to them' - Alexis Arquette
Speaking out: William H. Macy, Will Smith, Danny Boyle and Lupita Nyong'o
'Yo, Chris. Come check me out at #TheOscars this year. They got me parking cars on G level' - Don Cheadle
'It can't be about box office, because I think black actors and stories along those lines have done very, very well, obviously' - Steve McQueen
'I think that diversity is the American superpower. That's why we're great. So many different people from so many different places adding their ideas, their inspirations, their influences to this beautiful American gumbo. … so when I look at the series of nominations of the Academy, it is not reflecting that beauty' - Will Smith
'It's anti-white racism. Maybe black actors don't deserve to be on the final stretch?' - Charlotte Rampling
'I do support the Oscar Ban movement's position that the nominations do not reflect the diversity of our community. The Oscar Ban movement reflects a larger discussion about racism in the criminal justice system. I hope the Oscar Ban movement opens the way for my peers to open their hearts to the #BlackLivesMatter movement as well' - Mark Ruffalo
'I think everybody acknowledges that everything evolves and changes. It is going to evolve and change more, you can see that coming' - Danny Boyle
'There's loads of black actors. In the end you can't vote for an actor because he's black. You can't say 'I'm going to vote for him, he's not very good, but he's black, I'll vote for him' - Sir Michael Caine
Unconvinced: Sir Michael Caine, producer Gerald Molen and Academy Award nominee Charlotte Rampling have questioned plans for an Oscar boycott while Reese Witherspoon called for a change to Academy voting membership
'As an Academy member, I would love to see a more diverse voting membership' - Reese Witherspoon
'The idea of a boycott is ridiculous. Are their noses bent out of shape by the award nominations? Of course. That is normal in a town of egos and red carpet desires. While there were many performances of note, not all my choices for 'best' in the various categories have been realized.'I say to all my co-members: 'stop acting like spoiled brats. Look to the next awards show for recognition – if you deserve it' - Schindler's List producer Gerald Molen
'I think in our industry and our business, it's really about looking to who's telling what story, who's being allowed to direct, who's being allowed to act in it, and I think that needs to change' - John Kransinski
'The problem is not with the Oscars, the problem is with the Hollywood movie-making system' - Viola Davis
However, Michael Moore and Spike Lee are the only two to go as far as backing the boycott.
Lee said the 'real battle' against racism was taking place in the 'executive office of the Hollywood studios and TV and cable networks.'
'This is where the gate keepers decide what gets made and what gets jettisoned to "turnaround" or scrap heap,' he wrote to his combined 1.4 million followers on social media.
William H Macy, who is one of the stars of this year's Best Picture nominee 'Room', claimed some Academy voters don't even watch the films in contention - and instead vote for actors they personally favor.
Macy, who is a member of the Academy, told Mail Online: 'My take on this story is that there is no conspiracy, it is the Academy. It is mostly a bunch of white guys.
Two-time Academy Award winner George Clooney said he believed Hollywood as an industry was 'moving in the wrong direction.'
'If you think back 10 years ago, the Academy was doing a better job. Think about how many more African Americans were nominated.... And all of a sudden, you feel like we're moving in the wrong direction,' the 54-year-old actor and director said.
British actor Idris Elba - who didn't receive a nomination for his role in Beasts of No Nation - addressed the issue in a speech to politicians in London on Monday.
'We need to counter what everybody has, see the lay of the land and see who has which careers in TV—who makes TV, and who is allowed on TV and when they get the opportunity which roles do they play, on and off screen,' he said.
'You have to ask the question: are black people normally playing petty criminals? Are women always the love interest or talking about men? Are gay people always stereotyped? Are disabled people ever seen at all?'

Both the TRMM Microwave Imager (TMI) and the QuikScat SeaWinds Scatterometer have the potential to contribute greatly to the study of tropical cyclones in all ocean regions. Here, we show a few examples of how our scientists have used either or both of these instruments in data validation or research
TMI SSTs near Tropical Cyclones
The TRMM Microwave Imager (TMI) has produced passive microwave observations at 10.7, 19.4, 21.3, 37.0, and 85.5 GHz since December 1997. Orbiting at 35° inclination from the equator, TRMM provides sampling throughout the diurnal cycle. Remote Sensing Systems has developed a Sea Surface Temperature (SST) algorithm, relying primarily on the 10.7 GHz channel. Physical parameters in the retrieval algorithm were adjusted to minimize cross-talk errors due to wind speed, wind direction, atmospheric water vapor, and cloud water. The performance of the algorithm has been assessed by comparison with the Reynolds and AVHRR SST products.
Comparison of 3 SST fields during the 1998 and 1999 Hurricane Seasons
The following animations consist of AVHRR Pathfinder interim version 4.1 "Best" SST fields on the left side (these are 3 day averages centered on the day indicated), a similar 3-day average of TRMM SST in the center, and the Reynolds Weekly 1deg SST product on the right. AVHRR SST is the main source of data for the Reynold's product, so when the IR data show significant cloud cover (causing missing data) or biasing due to high atmospheric vapor content this will show up in the Reynolds SSTs also. Two animations show the storms for each season using NHC best-track data:
1998 Season (Quicktime Movie)
1999 Season (Quicktime Movie)
Hurricanes Bonnie and Danielle
The following case study demonstrates how use of TMI SSTs would have improved intensity estimates for Hurricane Danielle during August 1998.
The Tropical Prediction Center (TPC)/National Hurricane Center (NHC) issues forecasts and warnings about all storms in the Atlantic and Eastern Pacific Oceans every 6 hours from May 15 – November 30 each year. Reynold's weekly SST analysis is the chosen SST field for consideration when estimating maximum possible intensity of the storms. TMI SSTs are more recent and have a higher resolution (25 km). Figure 1 shows the microwave SSTs, IR SSTs and Reynold's SST product each overlaid with the best-tracks of Bonnie and Danielle. Evident in the microwave plot on the left is a large region of cold-water upwelling caused by Hurricane Bonnie several days earlier. The IR SSTs are blocked by Bonnie's cloud cover and the Reynold's weekly product shows SSTs from before Bonnie's passage through this region.
On August 25, 1998 Hurricane Bonnie was just off the Carolina coast and Hurricane Danielle was gathering strength in the center of the Atlantic, heading towards Florida. The Reynold's SST map shown in the above figure was used as input to the intensity models to forecast hurricane Danielle. Bonnie caused significant upwelling, that was completely missed in the IR retrievals of SST because of the clouds surrounding the storm. The TMI SST shown above could have been incorporated into the intensity models. As soon as Danielle hit the cold wake of Bonnie her intensity decreased sharply. This interaction can be seen in the following animation:
Hurricanes Bonnie and Danielle (Quicktime Movie)
Hurricane Floyd
These animations of hurricane Floyd contain TRMM SSTs overplotted with NHC Best Track position and wind speed data. The SST is a 3 day average centered on the day indicated. The second animation contains Hurricane Floyd's track plotted on SST anomaly maps. The anomaly maps are created by subtracting the Reynolds SST product from the TMI SSTs.

Water Vapor and SST for the 1998 Hurricane Season
The following animation demonstrates the effect of atmospheric water vapor on IR SSTs. The water vapor map on the left comes from the TMI instrument and is simultaneously retrieved with the TMI SSTs. In the center, a 3 day average map of AVHRR Pathfinder "best" SST is shown. On the right are TMI SST 3-day averaged maps. Infrared SST products are biased slightly cool when the columnar water vapor content is greater than 40 mm.

QuikScat Winds within Tropical Cyclones
Scatterometers are used to derive the wind speed and direction of winds over the ocean surface. These microwave radars send and receive pulses, and winds are calculated from the amount of returned signal. QuikScat wind plots for worldwide tropical cyclones have been archived since 1999. Validation of QuikScat data has been performed with particular focus placed on better understanding the winds within tropical cyclones. Two hurricanes in particular were used since these storms stalled for a short time, allowing us to better collocate data from several instruments.
Hurricane Dennis
Hurricane Dennis ravaged the Carolina coast during late August and early September 1999. This plot of Hurricane Dennis on Aug 31st 1999 consists of an SSM/I precipitation plot on the left and a QuikScat wind plot on the right. The time difference between these two observations is approximately 1.5 hours. Five NDBC buoys were located within this 10-degree square region. Buoy wind observations matching the time of the QuikScat map are listed. Four of these buoys are in low or no rain regions and agree very well with the mapped winds (within 6 knots or 3 m/s), especially buoy 41001 which may have been within Dennis' eyewall. Buoy 44014 located just offshore in the heaviest rain region has a 49 kt (25 m/s) wind, where QuikScat winds were approximately 34 m/s. In this case, we believe both the buoy and QuikScat may be in error. The buoy is likely to be in very rough seas, therefore unable to accurately measure the winds, while QuikScat may be affected by the presence of rain within the observation area.
Hurricane Keith
Keith was a rapidly-intensifying tropical cyclone over the northwestern Caribbean Sea, reaching Category 4 on the Saffir-Simpson Hurricane Scale as it stalled just off the coast of Belize. It was in this stalled location that we obtained good winds from QuikScat as shown in the figure below. Overplotted on the winds are two dotted curves representing the 35kt and 50kt radii for the storm. These winds and radii are in excellent agreement with model results produced by the Hurricane Research Division of NOAA shown on the left side of the plot. QuikScat input was not used in the running of this model output.

Yesterday, the Edge of Tomorrow marketing team starting their advance with a brand new full length trailer, today they've brought along some supporting fire in the form of four new featurettes.
The videos, which include interviews with stars Tom Cruise and Emily Blunt, actually shows quite a bit of new footage as well as some behind the scenes action. They cover everything from Cruise's and Blunt's characters, to the time-jumping nature of the narrative and those pretty awesome-looking munition packed exo-suits. Check them out below:
I'm allowing myself to get mildly excited about this movie. Big action sci-fi hasn't exactly done particularly well in recent years, with the likes of Oblivion, After Earth, Elysium and even Pacific Rim failing to win over audiences and critics wholesale. However, if nothing else, [Edge of Tomorrow](movie:267902) does look like a gritty, action packed, but not altogether brain-dead, science fiction war romp.
Edge of Tomorrow storms theaters on June 6, 2014.
What do you think? It's betting time. Will Edge of Tomorrow smash the box office? Let us know below.

Students from over 20 schools and universities of Lahore on Friday discussed the state of acid crime in Pakistan and what the government had been able to do to curb it.
The event was organised by Beaconhouse Law Society at its Defence campus.
The topic for discussion was: Acid violence- the failings of the Pakistani legal system in tackling the problem. What are the possible legal solutions and their effectiveness with regard to counteraction, regulation and rehabilitation ?
Thinking out loud
The purpose of the exercise was to inculcate reasoning and critical thinking among students and creating awareness about the legal system.
Fatima Kausar, an A-levels student, said acid was a "pernicious weapon" and its sale should be strictly regulated. She stressed the need for buyers to be registered with the government and required to disclose the purpose of every purchase. She said there was also a need for safety procedures to prevent theft.
"There is evidence that acid attacks occur more frequently in areas where acid is widely used for commercial purposes. Businesses that use acid can help prevent its abuse."
Mahnoor Ahmed, a student of National Grammar School, said a zero tolerance policy should be adopted in such cases. Those found aiding such crime must be considered equally guilty, she said.
Learning through discussion
The speeches were followed by an interaction between a panel of experts on the topic.
Valarie Khan, a French human rights activist and Acid Survivors Foundation chairperson, said acid crime was a global phenomenon.
She said acid violence was the worst form of gender-based violence in Bangladesh, India, Nepal and Pakistan.
Ayesha Tasleem, legal head at Depilex Smile Again Foundation, said an important aspect of the issue was gender equity that had been neglected in education imparted to men and women. Education with a mindset change is imperative to curb this crime, she added.
Lawyer Saad Rasul said there was a large gap between the current legal framework and an ideal system. He said while there were laws to register acid violence as an offence, safeguards and measures to prevent and prosecute after were absent.
Gulraiz Zulfikar, a fellow at the American Joint Cancer Committee, said several acid burns were treatable at acid burn centres functioning under non government organisations, government and the army. "Survivors do not seek sympathy, but they need restoration of self-esteem," he said.
The panellists said that a strong retributive punishment was not the solution to the problem. They advocated life sentences for convicts.
Law Society president Ayza Ishaq, who moderated the discussion session, said that law students needed to be part of something "bigger than themselves".

When Rosa is sent to Vermont with other children to live with strangers until the strike is over, she fears she will never see her family again. Then, on the train, a boy begs her to pretend that he is her brother. Alone and far from home, she agrees to protect him, even though she suspects that he is hiding some terrible secret.
From a beloved, award-winning author, here is a moving story based on real events surrounding an infamous 1912 strike.

"Stirring and dramatic." (Booklist)
"Paterson has skillfully...created vivid settings, clearly drawn characters, and a strong sense of...hardship and injustice." (School Library Journal Starred)
I listened to the end of the book on the way to church this morning. It was difficult to go into the service, and I couldn't wait to return to the car. By the time I was back home, the story had ended, but I didn't move from the car. The story characters had a grip on me, and the outcome of their painful situations moved me deeply. This book was a little difficult to get into at the beginning, but oh, the character and setting development Ms. Patterson spends time weaving contributes to the huge impact of the overall story.

Reality Kings Trial Access
$1 for 2 days
When you name your site in a grand manner, then it is obvious that people will start expecting great things from you. So, the pressure builds up even before the viewer lands up in there, but when it comes to Reality Kings, the scenario is completely different. They have not only lived up to their name but at places, they have excelled it as well.
Reality Kings network provides membership at a cheap rate so that you don't have to spend a fortune for watching some of the best pornstars in action. If you get the membership, then you will have complete access to more than 40 sites where you can enjoy some hardcore entertainment without any break.
Reality Kings Review: Quick Summary
Living up to the lofty expectations is not an easy job, but Reality Kings has managed to do that very well. When you first step in, the website might come across as one of the busiest places, but within a matter of time, you will be at home with the navigation. There is a huge collection of HD videos and it is completely safe. There are times when the adult entertainment sites bring in with them some of the viruses that are harmful to your device and this is the reason why some of us stay away from the adult sites. This is not the case with this site and all of you can enjoy some hardcore adult entertainment without thinking about anything else. Whether you are browsing through the pictures or viewing the videos, one thing is for sure that you won't be disappointed about the quality.
In case you are tired of going through each and every site to see whether they have any update or not, what you can do is click on the Sites link and get all the updates under one roof. If you like numbers and figures, then you will be glad to know that more than 10,000 movies are there already and near about 9400 photo galleries. So, if you haven't started viewing them yet, then get started right away. It has enough fodder to keep you hooked on to the site for pretty long.
Reality Kings also provides the option of filtering the scenes that have your favorite models in it. You can download your favorite photos in Zip files easily. If you like big breasts, then you can land up straight into Big Naturals or if the Latin hotties are your favorites, then there is 8th Street Latinas to serve you. They also have the hot lesbian acting it out in "We Live Together" for you. The website serves the males as well as the females, but is not restricted to them only, instead, you will find enough hardcore content for the gays and the lesbians too.
If you are a member, then the fun will double up for you as they come up with some of the exclusive products and shows which are dedicated for their members only. They definitely know how to make their viewers happy. They make sure that the regular viewers get to see at least one new video every day, therefore, they keep on updating everyday across different sites.
Reality Kings Network has been in the business for more than 10 years now and it is still going strong because it showcases some of the most exclusive videos that the viewers won't find anywhere else.
Now, they have also upgraded their videos to Full HD, so the visitors are now enjoying their time out there even better.
The quality of the older RealityKings videos is very low due to the absence of HD quality video. But, nothing can be done because at that point of time HD was not into action. Apart from this, another grave concern is that there are several sites that have stopped updating their content, which is definitely a major concern.
Here you won't be able to download more than 50 videos each day, which is a drawback for this site as there are several others who provides unlimited downloads.
Reality Kings: Final Thoughts
No matter whether you are looking for the lovemaking scenes or the sexy strips, Reality Kings have it all on display. Though the site is quite simple, but once the video starts playing, you will witness outstanding images and very good sound. So, what are you waiting for, just tap in the discount and register today for some of the best hardcore videos of all time!

Speedy deletion declined: Fuchsia x bacillaris[edit]
Hello Johnanth, and thanks for patrolling new pages! I am just letting you know that I declined the speedy deletion of Fuchsia x bacillaris, a page you tagged for speedy deletion, because of the following concern: There is sufficient context to identify the subject of the article. You may wish to review the Criteria for Speedy Deletion before tagging further pages. Thank you. Dabomb87 (talk) 01:54, 25 September 2010 (UTC)
- Sorry for that, mate, but being a "deletionist" is fun. But that wasn't the reason I selected the article. In it, no links were present, and the subject of it was completely unclear. I couldn't understand a word apart from "fuchsia" and a couple of technical compound words from Greek. It probably has something to do with plants, but to most readers who don't understand the language, the article would make no sense. And yes, I've look at the criteria for speedy deletion manual numerous times. People can make a few mistakes when bored (but willing to help) at 2 am! Still, a good judgement on your part, I suppose, but I was close, right? --Γιάννης Α. ✆|☑ 16:22, 25 September 2010 (UTC)

- However meritorious my actions in saving the Battle of Jutland talk page from further prolongation of a highly predictable metric/Imperial/US spat initiated by your insistence that somebody else should carry out a check you could have carried out for yourself from information already present in the article, and further inflamed by your insistence that the long ton was defunct (a claim which would not survive consultation of the Wikipedia article on long ton to which you linked) , they were done for the common good, rather than in any hope of fame, honour or fortune. Consequently I feel I must decline the consequent unilateral award to me of a Barnstar.... especially when accompanied by an edit tag of 'good riddance to you'.
- You are (according to your user page) young and (from your page history) apparently a newcomer, so I will not bite your head off. I will merely express the hope that with age and experience will come better manners. Rjccumbria (talk) 23:51, 3 October 2010 (UTC)
- What if starting semi-pointless debates is exciting, and may actually help someone while reading an article?
What if the "perpetrator" [me] with my "gross insistence" of starting this stupid, stupid debate were not stopped by a "white knight", as they're known on the internet, that being you?
What if awarding someone who did the right thing and ended a pointless debate is good?
What if people like you who dislike being awarded for their actions in a project like this
What if I (although once again feel somewhat attacked on a few counts) wanted you to be recognised for your effort in ending an endless discussion, and assumed good faith (like you should have)?
What if I didn't know a few of the guidelines of Wikipedia, or haven't read through all of the TOS?
What if you should stop suffering with logorrhoea to discreetly deem yourself superior to others and get on with your life?!
What if I weren't young, and was older than you? Would you retract from posting this inflammatory garbage produced from your rage (and a bit of boredom)?
What if I cannot do whatever damn activity I want to do on Wikipedia, even if that were converting units of measurement back-and-forth?
Still wouldn't understand, would you, eh old man? I'd bet if you had an administrator account, you'd attempt to ban me right after your read my reply.
Human nature and kids seem to be a few things you cannot accept in the heartless NPOV world of an encyclopedia (you haven't patrolled new pages, clearly!). The younger generation is growing up, and will soon get into Wikipedia themselves. And make sure you're comfortable with that before your love of PC and realisation of the need to feel alive again before death takes over. --Γιάννης Α. ✆|☑ 00:34, 4 October 2010 (UTC)
- If I may pick on one of the many what ifs , if you wanted me to be recognised and the barnstar was a good faith action, then I rather think it would not have had the ?petulant? edit tag 'and good riddance to you'. As for the rest, you are letting your imagination run away with you; for example I wouldn't dream of banning people for suchlike 'youthful high spirits' - I would however remonstrate with them, and this I have done. Feel free to do whatever you can to improve Wikipedia, but please accept gracefully that occasionally it might be you that has had hold of the wrong end of the stick.

Hi Johnanth, I just started this page, but before really starting the page, I uploaded the picture, it suddenly got tagged for immediate deletion. please , can you let me finish this before you take any decision. moreover, can you help me to upload the picutre which I am unable to do. RegardsJogibaba (talk) 19:22, 26 September 2010 (UTC)
- Sorry about that I guess, but it was waiting there for a few minutes. The picture is not important, but you should have made an effort to type up all the content on initial "upload". But I was correct in marking it at the time. Thanks for the heads up. --Γιάννης Α. ✆|☑ 19:33, 26 September 2010 (UTC)
New Page Patrol Reminder[edit]
Just a reminder that it is advisable to patrol new pages from the bottom of the log and that:
- Tagging anything other than attack pages, copyvio, vandalism or complete nonsense only a few minutes after creation is not likely to be constructive and may only serve to annoy the page author.
- A good rule of thumb is to wait until at least 15 minutes after the last edit before tagging the article.
Arklow Pottery tagged 1 minute after creation.
Editors are not required to finish articles first before uploading and my understanding is that it has always been common practice on wikipedia to build the article online. Best wishes, (Msrasnw (talk) 19:48, 26 September 2010 (UTC))
- Sure, no problem. But don't come to me saying sorry when tens of other Wikipedians do exactely the kind of thing I did, but without those reasons you cited. Why are you so angry about something as harmless at that? Jesus. --Γιάννης Α. ✆|☑ 20:00, 26 September 2010 (UTC)
- Oh, and you didn't even look at what I tagged Arklow Pottery for (wikification, add more links and references). Nor did you look at the article, I bet. Don't criticise me if you haven't investigated. And your evidence is obviously faulty, as pointed out. Please don't put this quarrel against me, future talk page stalkers. --Γιάννης Α. ✆|☑ 20:35, 26 September 2010 (UTC)
Dear Johnanth, I am not sure why you are upset. Sorry if I have upset you. I was just pointing out to you that as one who patrols new pages it is good to be aware that our suggestion is not to tag pages (except attack pages, copyvio, vandalism or complete nonsense) only a few minutes after they have been started. In your case you tagged the page I had just started after 1 minute for three things: cleanup, expand, expert. I am not sure what you mean when you say "you didn't even look at what I tagged Arklow Pottery for" and "Don't criticise me if you haven't investigated". Anyway I am also not sure what you mean by my evidence being faulty or your worries about future page stalkers. Best wishes in any case (Msrasnw (talk) 21:05, 26 September 2010 (UTC))
Flight 103 (disambiguation)[edit]
Please try to avoid using Category:Disambiguation (as you recently did for Flight 103 (disambiguation) and Griffith Island (disambiguation)), which is legitimate for about 18 non-Cat-namespace pages, and no main-("article"-)namespace ones. Dab pages usually get, instead, {{Disambig}}. (In fact, it is unlikely you will ever encounter a Dab suitable for use of HotCat, since nearly all other Cats applicable to Dabs should be added via additional parameters of {{Disambig}}.)
Thanks for your work -- and especially for your interest in Dab pages.

Speedy deletion declined: Over9000[edit]
Hello Johnanth, and thanks for patrolling new pages! I am just letting you know that I declined the speedy deletion of Over9000, a page you tagged for speedy deletion, because of the following concern: Not previously been deleted via a deletion discussion. You may wish to review the Criteria for Speedy Deletion before tagging further pages. Thank you. Dabomb87 (talk) 00:11, 7 October 2010 (UTC)
- Whoops. I've become too used to using Twinkle it seems. I noticed "Over 9000" was a forbidden article title due to spam, but didn't know if it had been deleted through discussion or not (silly me, I ought to have checked) so I just put the tag closest to the actual deletion reason, that being spam. Anyway, it seemed like you had the power to move the page to Over 9000 but someone else deleted it for the same reason that I tagged the article for speedy deletion, so I guess I was right at the end! --Γιάννης Α. ✆|☑ 21:54, 7 October 2010 (UTC)
'Drive-by tagging' of Welsh language[edit]
I removed the tag you placed on the Welsh language article. 'Drive-by tagging' is not considered constuctive. Please make your case on how the article can take a 'worldwide view' of the Welsh language, on the Talk page. Other than in Chubut Province, where Welsh is spoken by around 5000 people (less than 1% of the total number of speakers), Welsh is spoken as a living language only in the UK. Please do not re-add the tag without having done this. Please consider the template notes of the tag you added , one of which says: "Please explain your concerns on the article's talk page and link to the section title of the discussion you initiate. Otherwise, other editors may remove this tag with alacrity and justified prejudice." Which is exactly what has happened. Daicaregos (talk) 19:00, 20 October 2010 (UTC)
- Eh, I can't be arsed to justify myself right now. Sure, I understand "drive-by-tagging" gets a tag removed most of the time, but it should have been obvious information on the Welsh settlements in Chubut Province is severely lacking at the time of writing. It is spoken by few people, but 5000 people is a crowd, and more importantly for the language, there may be a few variations. Also, the language was once spoken by most immigrants to Argentina and history never hurts an article, especially one on language. It should be obvious to anyone who has read through the article that more information is needed on the language outside Wales (it is spoken in the US as well, I believe), and I have faith that someone will edit this information in at some point. But I won't retag it since you're so angry with me, and the reason cited in the first sentence (hehe). --Γιάννης Α. ✆|☑ 19:16, 20 October 2010 (UTC)
Category removal[edit]
Howdy. Why did you make this edit?--Rockfang (talk) 03:17, 8 November 2010 (UTC)
- It seems like you've used the software yourself I think. Basically, it was wrong, and if you saw the subsequent edit I made to it, you'd perhaps understand. I also looked at the other category, and ManyCam most certainly did not fit into it. These were completely different things. It could be described as a peripheral, but the best classification, I believe, is "webcam". No other category suited it, I believe, except for explicitly calling it what it is, a softcam. Of course, creating a softcam is very difficult and there is not a lot of prominent softcam software available for softcams to require their own category.
TL;DR: I did it because I strongly believe the category was incorrect. No hard feelings though, eh? --Γιάννης Α. ✆|☑ 19:06, 8 November 2010 (UTC)

Maynor's Shot That Felled Duke Still Echoes
Friday, October 12, 2007
RICHMOND, Oct. 11 -- Eric Maynor walked into the basketball office at Virginia Commonwealth University on Wednesday and placed a stack of letters on a table. One was from Missouri, another from New Jersey. One was typed, another handwritten.
Most basketball players at mid-major schools don't receive mail from fans across the country, but most have not made a game-winning shot to knock Duke out of the first round of the NCAA tournament. No college basketball player who will begin practice Friday authored a more defining moment in last season's NCAA tournament than Maynor, a junior point guard who said his jumper with 1.8 seconds remaining changed his life.
"Oh, man, it is crazy," Maynor said of the attention. "When I come into the office, there is always some letters there. A little girl sent me this." Maynor held up a handmade card with his number 3 on front and a message on the inside that read, "You deserve this honor, you are the best basketball player, from your No. 1 fan, Lauren."
Even though Maynor received first-team all-Colonial Athletic Association honors last season, even though he had a spellbinding finish in VCU's victory over George Mason in the CAA tournament final, he became a household name only when he made one 17-foot shot against Duke.
"That is the magic of the NCAA tournament, where stars are born," said Oklahoma Coach Jeff Capel, the former VCU coach who recruited Maynor to the school. "You can look at shot after shot that will always be in the minds of fans. He was able to do it on the biggest stage. He is a star now."
It has been almost a decade since Bryce Drew made the buzzer-beating shot for Valparaiso against Mississippi in 1998, but he is still reminded of it occasionally when he meets people.
"No matter what happens, he will always have that shot, and a lot of people won't," Drew, now Valparaiso's associate head coach, said of Maynor.
But this was more than a Cinderella team beating a Duke team that many fans love to hate. This was a North Carolina native -- who grew up a Tar Heels fan -- hitting the winning shot against the in-state power that never recruited him. What made the shot even more improbable was that Maynor's most glaring weakness growing up was his outside shot.
Maynor's father, George, was a celebrated jump shooter who played at East Carolina and was among the final players cut by the Chicago Bulls in 1980. But Eric Maynor had one of the worst shooting forms Capel had seen. He released the ball almost from the wrong side of his head and inadvertently spun the ball sideways. Even with questions about his shot, Capel was so enamored with Maynor that, while watching him during an AAU tournament, he hoped Maynor's team would lose so coaches from more prominent schools would not be compelled to watch his games.
"If he could have shot, there was no way we would have gotten him," Capel said. "I really thought he could play in the ACC."
That shot, now refined, has helped change Maynor's life, although it has not changed him. He would rather talk about teammates and coaches than bask in the afterglow of the Duke game. VCU Coach Anthony Grant said Maynor is a "level-headed and humble" player who has handled the fanfare with maturity.
Attention has come from all directions. His Facebook profile had several thousand people, including many claiming to be fans of ACC schools, request to be his so-called "friend." When Maynor competed this summer on the Pan American Games team, teammates such as Maryland's James Gist often talked to him about the shot.

Acne is not only common among teenagers but to adults as well but it is very prevalent in younger population. When you get to your teenage years, hormonal fluctuations are very common and these are evident in some teens through development of acne.
Acnes are very annoying especially when it grows on the face and gives one a disturbed self image. Many teens find ways to get rid of it by using different commercial products but they sometimes end up futile on their attempts to rid it. Some commercial products depend on the skin type of the user and so it is ineffective for some and may even cause further problems. To be safe with medicating and eliminating it, one can use natural remedies that is usually available at home. Some useful home remedies are found below:
A lot of people hate its smell but this herb is very helpful in curing acne. By nature, garlic has anti-inflammatory and antibiotic effects. This is perfect for acne as it reduces swelling and kills the bacteria that thrive on it. To cure the skin acne, one should incorporate it into one's diet and can eat it raw (if bearable). It is not advisable to rub it on the affected area as it can burn the skin.
Aloe Vera
Aloe vera has many uses especially when treating health and beauty concerns. Treating acne is one good example as aloe vera is a good skin cleanser. One just needs to squeeze aloe vera juice and apply it on the affected area. It will serve as skin mask and can be washed later, leaving skin smooth and clean. To treat acne, it has to be applied regularly to maintain clean skin and prevent infection on the pimple.
Rose Sater + Oatmeal
Rose water helps rejuvenate the skin while oatmeal serves as an effective facial scrub. Combining the two will give one facial mask that can thoroughly cleanse the skin, preventing acne infection and possibly treating scars from pimples if used for several weeks. Cleansing the skin this way can help prevent excess oils from harboring bacteria and creating skin acne.
Honey is one of the best and most effective cleansing facial masks. It is because it has antibiotic properties that helps kill bacteria that cause skin acne infection. To remedy the infection, one can take its syrup form daily or apply it directly on the affected area. When applied topically, it has to be rinsed few minutes after to flush out oil, dirt and bacteria on the affected area of the skin.
There are still many other home remedies that can be used to eliminate and prevent acne growth. Above all home remedies, one key habit that must be practiced to prevent the skin infection is cleanliness. Just washing the face before bedtime with water already helps eliminate bacteria, oil and dirt that thrive on the skin to cause acne. When commercial products are to be used, one should ensure that his/her skin is not allergic to the chemical or else it will just worsen the condition.

I stayed at the Harbourview Inn for sadly only one night with my mom and my 2 kids. It was a very pleasant experience. It is in a wonderful location - we were able to walk everywhere. All staff were extremely helpful and friendly. Everyone seemed to do their best to make sure we felt welcome and at home. The hotel offers a lot of extras - at no extra charge. The cookies and milk at bedtime were a huge hit with my daughter we missed the wine and cheese but the breakfast was nice as was the turndown service. The beds were really comfy and the room was quite spacious.I would definitely recommend staying here and hope to stay again soon.
- Official Description (provided by the hotel):

I started the summer with a long to-do list of projects I wanted to complete for the classroom. I'm ending the summer feeling like I didn't get much accomplished and wondering where did the time go! The summer has flown! Next week I'll be back in teacher mode and hopefully will be able to start using my blog to the fullest to share teaching ideas.
The past 2 weeks I've spent planning a baby shower for my best friend who is having twins! The shower is next weekend and I plan to post a few pictures of things I've created for the shower. But I'm going to wait until after, because I don't want anyone peeking. ;-)
In the meantime, I'll leave you with this GREAT bulletin board picture I found on Mrs. Picasso's Art Room.
I love the simple message. I will definitely be recreating this one sometime this year for our hall bulletin board.
