Adding Framesets to Webworks Help 5.0
About this Topic
This topic explains how to customize the framesets that contain your Webworks Help 5.0 Content. The information in this article was prompted by a post to wwp-users:

You can choose between two points when customizing the framesets. To accomplish this task, you will need working knowledge of Javascript functions and <frameset> tags (or be really good flying by the seat of your pants).
What are the Frames in the Set?
The WWHelp 5.0 page is made up of a number of nested <frameset> elements. The first <frameset> is defined in wwhelp\wwwhimpl\js\wwhelp.htm and references two pages:
The navigate.htm and content.htm both contain <framesets> that breakdown into the following:
The pagenav.htm also contains a <frameset> with three frames as you see below:
The Webworks transformation pipeline populates each blank.htm file in this set. The directives for populating these framesets are ???.
Changing the WWHelp 5.0 layout requires that you determine which frameset you need to alter. For example, if you want to modify the buttons above the document content, you must work with the pagenav.htm frameset.
Example: Adding a Fixed Pane Below the Document Content
This example illustrates how to add a fixed panel below the document display. In this fixed panel will appear a copyright notice. The following illustrates how the project will appear when completed:
Copy the content.htm File to Your Project
Making this modification will require adding custom code to the content.htm frameset. So, before you begin, you will need to copy the file from Webworks base configuration to your project:
- Go to your Webworks ePublisher installed directory (INSTALLDIR).
Locate the content.htm file in the WebworksHelp 4.0 formats:
C:\Program Files\WebWorks\ePublisher\2010.1\Formats\WebWorks Help 5.0\Files\wwhelp\wwhimpl\common\htm
Copy this file to the same location in your project .
C:\Documents and Settings\yourname\My Documents\ePublisher Pro Projects\yourproject\Formats\WebWorks Help 5.0\Files\wwhelp\wwhimpl\common\html
Edit the content.htm File to Add Another Panel
You are going to add another panel to the frameset defined in content.htm.
Open the yourproject\Formats\WebWorks Help 5.0\Files\wwhelp\wwhimpl\common\html\content.htm file in your favorite editor.
Locate the <frameset> tag starting at line 47.
<frameset rows="36,*" border="0" frameborder="0" framespacing="0" onresize="WWHContentFrame_HandleResize();" onkeydown="WWHContentFrame_HandleKeyDown((document.all||document.getElementById||document.layers)?event:null);" onkeypress="WWHContentFrame_HandleKeyPress((document.all||document.getElementById||document.layers)?event:null);" onkeyup="WWHContentFrame_HandleKeyUp((document.all||document.getElementById||document.layers)?event:null);"> <frame name="" src="pagenav.htm" scrolling="no"> <frame name="" src="blank.htm" scrolling="auto"> <noframes>
This page uses frames, but your browser doesn't support them.
  </noframes>
You will notice there are two frames in the definition pagenav.htm and blank.htm.
Add another <frame> called copyright.htm to the set.
<frameset rows="36,*" border="0" frameborder="0" framespacing="0" onresize="WWHContentFrame_HandleResize();" ... <frame name="" src="pagenav.htm" scrolling="no"> <frame name="" src="blank.htm" scrolling="auto"> <frame name="" src="copyright.htm" scrolling="no"> ... </frameset>
Note: Firefox 3.6.8 and earlier require the src file be in the same directory as content.htm.The file cannot be accessed by a relative URI, such as '../copyright.htm'.
Because you know this panel will contain a single, unchanging line you set the scrolling to no. This means there will be no scroll bar on this panel in the set.
Add another rows attribute to the frameset it will look like this:
<frameset rows="36,*,36" border="0" frameborder="0" framespacing="0" onresize="WWHContentFrame_HandleResize();" ... </frameset>
Our layout requires that the bottom panel have the same height as the pagenav.htm at the top. We don't have to worry about the width; it takes up the entire available pane width by default.
- Save and close the file.
Create a copyright.htm File
Your new panel will reference a copyright.htm file, so you need to create it. You will create it by copying and renaming a blank.htm file.
- Go to your Webworks ePublisher installed directory (INSTALLDIR).
Locate the blank.htm file in the WebworksHelp 4.0 formats:
C:\Program Files\WebWorks\ePublisher\2010.1\Formats\WebWorks Help 5.0\Files\wwhelp\wwhimpl\common\html
Copy this file to the same location in your project .
C:\Documents and Settings\yourname\My Documents\ePublisher Pro Projects\yourproject\Formats\WebWorks Help 5.0\Files\wwhelp\wwhimpl\common\html
Rename the copied file from blank.htm to copyright.htm.
- Open your new copyright.htm file in your favorite editor.
Search and replace the word blank with copyright.
- Edit the file to add your copyright text in the file itself.
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40/strict.dtd">    <meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html"> <meta http-equiv="charset" content="UTF-8">  <title>copyright.htm</title>
 Copyright 2010. All rights reserved by Our Company.

In addition to the copyright material, you can also add some style information to the top of the page. This page uses a file called copyrightbg.gif to get the look and feel of the top nav bar. copyrightbg.gif is a custom image (more about how to do this in the next section).
Save and close your copyright.htm file.
Make a Custom copyrightbg.gif File
Copy the toolsbg.gif image from the appropriate skin folder:
C:\Program Files\WebWorks\ePublisher\2010.1\Formats\WebWorks Help 5.0\Skins\Lobby_Blue\Files\wwhelp\wwhimpl\common\images
Place it in your project:
C:\Documents and Settings\yourname\My Documents\ePublisher Pro Projects\yourproject\Formats\WebWorks Help 5.0\Files\wwhelp\wwhimpl\common\images
Rename the file from toolsbg.gif to copyrightbg.gif.
Using your favorite GUI editor, open copyrightbg.gif.
You may want to zoom in on the image so you can see it better.- Rotate the image 180 degrees so the dark line is at the top.
- Save and close the file.
Regenerate Your Project
You are ready to test your changes. Go ahead and regenerate all the files in your project. You should see your new panel appear just where you want it, on the bottom part of your project.Still having problems, download this ePublisher 2010.1 project and test it for yourself: CustomLayout.zip.
Explanations for Advanced Users
The original explanation for solving this problem was really for more advanced users. There are no working examples. There are two other techniques you can use to alter the framesets. They are explained here.
Customize the Frameset Files
Alternatively, you can alter the help framesets themselves:
WebWorks Help 5.0\Files\wwhelp\wwhimpl\common\html\wwhelp.htm WebWorks Help 5.0\Files\wwhelp\wwhimpl\js\html\wwhelp.htm
If you do this, you may need to update the "frameset map" specified in "help.js":
WebWorks Help 5.0\Files\wwhelp\wwhimpl\common\scripts\help.js
Search for the method:
function WWHHelp_GetFrameReference(ParamFrameName)
This will contains references to frames by position, so search for "WWHFrame.frames[" and update as required. You should only need to update the top-level frame references.
Customize Through the frameset.htm File
Leverage the entry point defined in the WebWorks Help 5.0 format. There is a frameset file that can be used to "wrap" your help output:
WebWorks Help 5.0\Files\wwhelp\wwhimpl\common\html\frameset.htm
Make your changes there.
To make everything else "just work", you'll also need to override:
WebWorks Help 5.0\Transforms\wwhelp_entry.html
and replace references to "switch.htm" with "frameset.htm".
Replacing the "switch.htm" with "frameset.htm" will make a call to the blank.hml file located in:
WebWorks Help 5.0\Files\wwhelp\wwhimpl\common\html\frameset.htm
If you want to change the size of the blank.htm make your changes in frameset.html
<frameset rows="300,*" border="0" frameborder="0"...
If you want to add custom buttons than you can add those inside the blank.htm
That should do it.
Do keep in mind that you may encounter secondary issues around using the WWHelp API with this configuration.
Additional Notes
Modifying WWHelp's framesets directly, i.e. not using frameset.htm, may require modification to two methods which resolve logical frame names to actual frame instances. These methods are found in the following files:
WebWorks Help 5.0\Files\wwhelp\wwhimpl\common\scripts\help.js WebWorks Help 5.0\Files\wwhelp\wwhimpl\js\scripts\handler.js
WWHelp uses logical names for each frame which must then be translated into actual DOM frame references. The two functions highlighted are responsible for performing this task.
In the example able, the copyright frame was "appended" to the frameset list, so the default frame references were still valid. Had the implementer chosen to add the copyright frame reference in another location, then it would have been necessary to update the frame resolver code.

I know how it is. I have a female manager who insults me and calls me gay all the time, because she is insecure about being fat. I got an attitude with her once and she reported me and I got written up.
Just start looking for another job. |

My only advice would be to get another job, it seems to me they are having to much fun at your expense to stop their games.

They will say things like "why are you so small... Your so slow... managers say your slow... Don't try and fight with me... etc..." countless little things that aren't necessarily super serious, but still are annoying to hear. They are all sassy fat women, that have that negative sort of humor. I work in a kitchen at a hospital, and its a really good job as far as minimum wage jobs are concerned. I dunno what to do, whether I should just try and suck it up and stop talking or responding to the things they are saying, and maybe that will shut them up, or what.

I understand your pain. I work in an office with mostly women, and I am constantly talked about and demeaned. It's to the point where I become physically ill whenever I see that I'm scheduled to come in. They say horrific things like "he's so slow" or "he's retarded" that crush my soul. I just stay quiet and go on about my work while inside tearing myself apart. I am looking for a new job and trying to build my self esteem back up on off days by doing things that make me happy/that I excel at.
I suppose the best way to deal with difficult coworkers is continue working and acting as though what they say does not affect you, so that it loses power. |

The reason I ask is because only a few of the women frustrate me, but I only work with them part of the time, on certain days, perhaps 2 days out of a work week. The other days I am working with tolerable people. But I always look to see if I am working with those people, and it hurts me to see that I will be working with them when I am. |

Obviously, I would have been fired from your job a long time ago, because I would have told them all to go f*** themselves! I wouldn't let anyone talk to me like that.

Sometimes I have a hard time telling if people are just kidding around or if they are serious. Your co workers might be just kidding around, in a rough way. But even if they are seriously putting you down, then try something different. Like sarcastically putting yourself down in front of them. Do something to change your state of mind.
I have seen that if I am able to do something to change my state, or my perception, then it really can change how they interact with me. Also, you might pay attention to how your co workers treat each other. This is something I should have done years ago, and I am finally doing it now. I notice that they sometimes appear to be putting each other down and sometimes being kind of rude about it, but they somehow go on. Maybe that is how some people act. |

Different types of bullying exists in the working world. And I'm certain if those people had an employee making mention of their weight or something like that, someone would be notified and they'd have the US Marines there ready to fire someone. People are a-holes. That's pretty much the extent of it. No one ever reacts when they're told that their behavior is unacceptable. That's because some people really ARE raised like animals. No one ever says "Gee, what I'm saying is really bothering Josh, I better stop". They only react when their livelihood is in jeopardy. The thing is that most people don't want to cause that kind of harm to others. But its you or them. They're causing harm to you so you have a decision to make. If it's not something you're willing to do, as much as they deserve it, you may want to consider switching jobs as soon as you can. |

A lot of this, is people with low self esteem, or personality disorders who camouflage their insecurities by projecting them on other people, so that they feel better about themselves.
Speaking from past experience, I think the best way to deal with this is don't let it show that they are upsetting you. If they are pushing your buttons, and getting a reaction from you, they will continue. Your body language, and the energy you give off will let them know that they struck a cord. The best way to cope with this is by working on yourself. Trust me, I know it's easier said than done, but if you go into work, with a positive attitude, taking pride in the work that you do, and ignoring the stupid remarks, they will stop. If you go into work dreading the day ahead, and feeling down, they will feed off this. It's like an invitation to inflict more emotional damage. The thing they hate most, is somebody that feels good about themselves, has a positive attitude, and takes their work seriously. Take pride in what you do, do it to the best of your abilities, and build on the small things to increase your self esteem. Laugh at their stupid remarks, and pity them for their insecurities. |

If you saw yesterday's competition, you already know that my current story involves my main character getting into a little trouble with a soucouyant.
So what's a soucouyant you ask? A soucouyant (pronounced SOO-koo-yah) is a Trinidadian vampire. The "experts" believe that French settlers on the island brought vampire lore, and it mingled with the lore of African slaves, but if you grew up in Trinidad and you ever got a mosquito bite, or woke up with black-and-blue marks on your body, you're pretty certain that lore has nothing to do with it, but that wrinkly lady who lives in that old house by herself probably does.
Here's the difference between a soucouyant and the more familiar vampire.
Soucouyant |
Vampire |
An old woman |
Male or female, young or old |
Can go out during the day |
Daylight will kill them |
Sheds her skin and turns into a ball of fire |
Turns into a large bat, or mist |
Can exchange skin with the dead |
Looks the same for eternity |
Will always stop to count spilled rice |
Will always stop to count spilled rice |
Can be destroyed if you rub salt in her skin (if you can find where she hid it) |
Can be destroyed by holy water, crosses, and sunlight |
Will suck you dry from any part of your body |
Goes for the jugular |
Can read your mind |
Can hypnotize you |
With that, I leave you to return to my novel, where the soucouyant hasn't actually caused any trouble yet. Maybe she will today. Who knows with these creatures. But for your toe-tapping pleasure, I leave you once again with Crazy's 1985 Road March: Suck me, Soucouyant, about a guy who is only too happy to get a visit from the fire-ball vamp.
And congratulations again to Natasha for guessing correctly yesterday.

Soybean Comment Soybeans firmed into the end of the session posting 7 to 10 cents gains in old crop contracts. A projected tight stocks situation of around 930 million bushels, lowest since 1989, kept the market firm. However, May was unable to move above last week's high of $14.51. A smaller crop projection for Argentina and Brazil by Oil world added support to the firm undertone. November closed near $12.75, a little below the recent high of $12.82. A close above that level would open the market to the February 22 high of $13.07.
Wheat Cash bid for March at Memphis 741 1/2 to 751 1/2;
Grain Sorghum Cash bid for March at Memphis 1242 to 1259;
Grain Comment Wheat posted across the board gains. Traders are becoming concerned that the recent cold snap has damaged the winter wheat crop, which wasn't in great shape to begin with in many areas. March 1 wheat stocks are projected to be down from last year at 1.177 billion bushels in this week's report. July has resistance between $7.50 and $7.55, and then the 38% retracement level of $7.68.Corn was under some selling pressure and closed from 1 to 4 cents lower in most contracts. Corn stocks are expected to be near 5 billion bushels or the lowest level in 15 years. This isn't news to the market since it has been working off a figure near that level for some time. However, a smaller number would tend to push the market higher.
Cattle As reported by Federal-State Market News, receipts were 187 head at sales in Ft. Smith & Heber Springs. Compared with last week, feeder steers sold mostly weak to $6 lower on a light test .
Cattle Comment Cattle futures were mostly lower. Product values are declining, and that has made packers cautious bidders. June live cattle are consolidating above the recent contract low of $120.10, with resistance at $122.70.
Hogs Comment Hogs continued higher today. Pork values have improved so far this week, as the market expects demand to increase after Easter. The April contract has posted strong gains so far this week, and could be showing signs of bottoming. Last week's low of $76.80 is support.

Nightmare Toys
By Shank MacShiv - Added On 12/27/2012
The city of Jericho has been overrun by monstrous toys, the progeny of a very vengeful toymaker once viciously scorned by its citizens. This plague of cute, cuddly death began while industrial band Busted Playthings was passing through near the end of their tour. The band leaders -- siblings Misty and Lane -- decide this is a perfect opportunity to loot the ancient and prosperous city while the looting is good...and hopefully escape with their heads intact.
You have the option to play as Misty or Lane on your quest for cool swag. But two guns are better than one: drag a friend along for split-screen two-player mayhem (requires joypad)!

The film is based upon the graphic novel ''ComicBook/DarkTown'' by Creator/KajaBlackley.Stu Miley (Creator/BrendanFraser) is a cartoonist, whose life is looking up. He's recently sold the cartoon "[[ShowWithinAShow Monkeybone]]" to the network, and he's about to propose to the girl he loves. And then, he went into a coma. He wakes up in Down Town, a whimsical dreamlike place between life and death, where nightmares are big business. And guess who's waiting for him? Monkeybone, his Figment. He's stuck in Down Town, waiting, until [[Creator/WhoopiGoldberg Death]] gives him a ticket out. However, he finds out the plug's about to be pulled on him, so the pair sets out to steal an Exit Pass. However, once they've snatched it from Death, Monkeybone reveals himself as [[RageAgainstTheAuthor fed up with being just a figment]], and, with help of Hypnos, God of Sleep, uses the pass to become Stu in the real world. Hypnos plans to use Stu's body to distribute nightmare juice -- a chemical that causes nightmares in people and animals. HilarityEnsues as Death sends Stu to stop Monkeybone, in the body of a deceased Olympian.----!! This movie provides examples of:* AmazingTechnicolourPopulation: The Figments and other inhabitants of Down Town.* [[{{Bowdlerized}} Avoid the Dreaded R Rating]]: Which kneecapped a couple of visual gags and some of the character development.* BadassNormal: The doctors who ''refuse'' to let the zombie organ donor escape with ''their'' organs.* BlackComedy: Used at points throughout.* TheCameo: Creator/WhoopiGoldberg as Death.* Catchphrase / PhraseCatcher: "Back in the pack!"* ClassicalMythology: Death and Hypnos.* {{Expy}}: Monkeybone is inspired by WesternAnimation/RenAndStimpy.* FishOutOfWater: Monkeybone [[spoiler:in Stu's body]].* GrandTheftMe: [[spoiler:Monkeybone to Stu and Stu in a dead gymnast]].* GrievousHarmWithABody: Stu [[spoiler:as the Olympian throws ''internal organs'' at Stu!Monkeybone]].

[[spoiler:We last see her killing the rat guard and eating him]].* LoveIsADrug: The most depressing cover of the song ever.* MaleGaze: Monkeybone ogling and later ''diving into'' Miss Kitty's cleavage, the later of which we see from his POV. Justified in that he's supposed to represent Stu's sex drive.* TheMerch: Stu despises it. Stu!Monkeybone ''loves'' it.* MindScrew: The diving into his first drawing, among other things.* MsFanservice: Miss Kitty. At least until [[spoiler:she [[FurryReminder chews a rat to death]].]]* NakedPeopleAreFunny: Herb (played by [[Series/TheKidsInTheHall David]] [[Series/NewsRadio Foley]]) rips off his clothes after sniffing the Oneirix.* NightmareSequence: Many. Oneirix, which is literal Nightmare Fuel, is part of the plot.* NoCelebritiesWereHarmed: A Creator/StephenKing stand-in (credited as "Man in the Dungeon,") who claims Literature/{{Cujo}} took the place of the original.* OurZombiesAreDifferent: Stu [[spoiler:borrows an ex-gymnast's body, played by Creator/ChrisKattan]].* PunnyName: S.

It's considered the best thing about the movie.* ShoutOut: Stu is wearing a [[WesternAnimation/TheNightmareBeforeChristmas Nightmare Before Christmas]] wrist watch.* ShowWithinAShow: The cartoon "Monkeybone" which Stu makes.* SpiritualSuccessor: Towards Film/CoolWorld, as both movies had a plot where the creator's creation turns against them (Monkeybone and Holli Would).* ThereAreNoTherapists: Averted, as therapy helps Stu to become a successful artist.* ToiletHumour: The Monkeybone dolls that Stu tries to sell have Monkeybone farting out yellow smoke [[spoiler:which turns out to be the Oneirix that Monkeybone uses to give people nightmares]].----

April 15, 2014 at 4:22 PM Lime shortage puts the squeeze on local bars and restaurants Posted by Tan Vinh A lime garnish? You won't see that anymore on your cocktail with this lime shortage. Photo by Genevieve Alvarez / The Seattle Times You may not be familiar with "limepocalypse" but if you eat out, and especially if you drink out, you felt it – through your wallet or through your taste buds. Something doesn't taste right. There is a lime crisis, with bad weather and a disease killing citrus trees, which has caused a shortage in Mexico, the world's largest lime producer and exporter. A case (175 limes) goes for around $110-$130, three times higher than what it cost in February. And to make matters worse, bartenders complain that due to the poor crop, the lime produces only a half-ounce of juice. (It's an ounce per lime in a good year.) In recent months, the price of limes has skyrocketed. In a story that's stranger than fiction, the Mexican drug cartels now are hijacking lime trucks and selling limes on the black market. If you don't think this affects you, check your favorite watering hole or your local Mexican and Vietnamese restaurants. Some taco trucks now serve a wedge of lemon with carnitas tacos.

Need software advice for program that will encrypt and password protect CD's and DVD's. (self.software)
submitted 2 years ago by jesse950
I mail confidential files (CD/DVD's) to clients and in the past I have used a program called Device Defender by Encryptx but lately the program has been acting up and their shop was bought out by Imation. I am looking for a new program to do the same thing.
I currently use a Windows 7 PC to encrypt/burn the files to CD/DVD's. Device Defender only allows the end user to decrypt files on a Windows PC but I would like the option to decrypt on both PC and Mac. This is not required but a wish list item. I have looked around on google but haven't found exactly what I was looking for. Any recommendations would be greatly appreciated!

You could try using TrueCrypt, which is free, open source, and cross-platform. You can burn the encrypted volume to a CD or DVD and, as long you format it as a FAT partition, you can mount it as read-only directly from the CD or DVD.

Fort Wayne rallied to prevent an embarrassing loss to Lansing on Sunday at Parkview Field, and the victory allowed the TinCaps to earn a three-game sweep in Midwest League action.
The TinCaps gave up a 5-0 lead, but jumped back with enough offense to claim a 7-5 win.
The Lugnuts' deficit evaporated in the fifth inning, but Fort Wayne took a lead it would not relinquish on a sixth-inning solo home run from catcher Rodney Daal.
The sweep is the TinCaps' first at home since July 2012 against the Great Lakes Loons.
A night after scoring 17 runs, Fort Wayne (9-6) wasted no time in getting on the scoreboard Sunday against Lansing left-handed starter Daniel Norris. The TinCaps put up one run in each of the first two frames thanks to an RBI-groundout by third baseman Gabriel Quintana and a run-scoring single from designated hitter Mallex Smith.
The TinCaps then added to their lead in the fifth with three runs to go up 5-1. Second baseman Diego Goris brought home Smith and shortstop Maxx Tissenbaum on a base-hit to left field. Four batters later, Corey Adamson plated Goris on a groundout to shortstop.
While the TinCaps' Justin Hancock did not earn a win, he did breeze through the Lansing (4-9) lineup through the first five innings. He allowed just two hits and walked four, but faced the minimum 15 batters over the first five innings thanks to three double-plays turned by his defense. Hancock worked 5 2/3 innings, the most for any Fort Wayne starter in the first 15 games of the season.
With John Hussey (1-0) on the mound, all five of the Lugnuts' runs scored in the sixth inning after Hancock's departure. Two of the runs, which were charged to Hancock, were unearned due to an error on first baseman Luis Tejada, who dropped a foul pop-up. The other three were charged to the 26-year-old Hussey.
The TinCaps tacked on two more runs in the bottom of the sixth, first with a Daal home run to left, and then on a sacrifice fly. Lugnuts reliver Ben White (0-1), who allowed the final two runs to score, took the loss.
Roman Madrid closed out the game, earning his third save of the season.

Famed sermon by Ukrainian Catholic prelate is 'extremist' literature, Russia rules
Catholic World News - November 25, 2013
A famous sermon delivered in 1900 by a leader of the Ukrainian Catholic Church has been classified as "extremist" literature, the Forum 18 news service reports.
The sermon entitled "The True Faith," by Metropolitan Andrey Sheptytsky, was classified as "extremist" along with 15 other texts by Ukrainian nationalists. These texts are now banned in Russia.
In the sermon Metropolitan Sheptytsky argued that the Catholic Church is the true faith, and that the Church is essential for salvation. At the same time he argued against "purely national institutions," saying that the Church is universal. Both in its concentration on matters of faith and in its rejection of nationalism, the sermon is radically different from the other 15 condemned texts, which are works of political nationalism.
Metropolitan Sheptytsky, who later became the leader of the Ukrainian Catholic Church (the largest Eastern-rite Church in communion with Rome), is revered by his Catholic countrymen, and is a candidate for beatification. He is also a hero to Ukrainian Jews, who have honored him for his condemnations of the Nazi regime and his efforts to save Jews from the Holocaust.

Justice in Mumbai |
Murder of love No honour in these killings Young lovers wanting to decide for themselves whom to marry have no luck in India, it seems. They can either fall foul of caste panchayats, which can dictate terms to them about whom to exclude, even if the law of the land has no objection. Or they can be bumped off by their family members for bringing dishonour to the family.

Punjab in financial mess
Justice in Mumbai IN a country where judicial delays are so common it does not come as a surprise that it has taken six years even for a special court set up under the Prevention of Terrorism Act (POTA) to bring to justice three persons found guilty of as heinous a crime as planting bombs that claimed 52 lives in Mumbai in 2003. Finding the case in the rarest of rare category, the POTA court has rightly given the death sentence, which should send a strong message to terrorists. However, procedural or motivated delays defeat the very purpose of the death sentence. The way the trial of Ajmal Kasab, the 26/11 Mumbai attack accused, is proceeding with the media reporting his every tantrum does not inspire hope for early punishment matching the severity of his crime. Usually women criminals are spared the death penalty. But in this case the woman involved, Fehmida, has been shown no leniency. Her daughter, however, was let off for being a minor at the time of the crime. Fehmida is the second woman to get the death sentence for an act of terrorism in India. Nalini Murugan, a co-conspirator in the assassination of Rajiv Gandhi, was the first woman to be given the death penalty. Her sentence was later commuted to life. Opinion may be divided on the efficacy of the death sentence in acting as a deterrent to terrorists or suicide-bombers who are often ideologically or emotionally motivated to even sacrifice their lives for their cause. But if the death sentence has to be awarded, its effect should not be diluted by unnecessary delays. Mohammed Afzal Guru, involved in the attack on Parliament, is still in the death row. There is no alternative to swift, efficient police action and a foolproof prosecution case resulting in early conviction. |
Murder of love
lovers wanting to decide for themselves whom to marry have no luck in India, it seems. They can either fall foul of caste panchayats, which can dictate terms to them about whom to exclude, even if the law of the land has no objection. Or they can be bumped off by their family members for bringing dishonour to the family. That is the fate that awaited a youth and a teenaged girl of Rohtak district on Wednesday. They were beaten up and strangled to death, allegedly by the girls family members. At least this incident came to light. Many others take place in Punjab and Haryana where relatives and even neighbours do all they can to ensure that the police does not get a scent of such murders. The notion of honour is so strong that any trace of independence shown by a man or woman, even if they are of legally permissible age, is considered a sin. Murder is of course the extreme form. Many other lesser atrocities are also committed on those daring to go against the wishes of their parents. All this continues because some people refuse to acknowledge that there is no honour involved in these criminal acts. By enforcing their writ on their relations, they are perpetrating a criminal act and must pay for it. What is particularly disgusting is the enforcement of an archaic value system under which a love affair between a boy and girl belonging to the same village itself is considered a sin. It is compounded if they also happen to belong to the same gotra. Trying to socially boycott such couples or trying to get their water supply cut comprise patently illegal activities. Reasonable sections of society must ponder over the menace. The State can only provide police protection. But it is for social organisations to bring about reforms so that customs which are a throwback to a bygone era do not continue to plague 21st century India. |

The right to be born
Adolf Hitler
was the first and foremost believer in the racial supremacy of the German people and was obsessed with the idea of a pure race, physically and mentally perfect. In Mein Kampf, he bemoaned the loss of what he called Germanic ethos and rededicated himself to the goal of a Germany in which there would only be pure-blooded individuals, conforming to his vision of a mentally and physically perfect race. Disconcerting echoes of this ideal of physical and mental superiority were heard in Courtroom No 11 in the Punjab and Haryana High Court recently. The court was hearing the arguments concerning the fate of an unborn child, conceived in the womb of a person who was possibly of unsound mind, and who, it was said, could not discharge the onus that society places on a mother. The child was not the result of a union of love or even of consensual lust the child was the result of one or more heinous rapes perpetrated on the unwitting woman. The child was the result of the failure of the Union Territory of Chandigarh to protect a person it had labelled mentally retarded and whose safety and welfare was its primary duty. But what was in issue in Courtroom No 11 was not the question of whether the woman had been raped or not; nor even the question of what punishment should society mete out to those guilty of violating a defenseless woman. The question that had been brought before the court by the guardian and representative of the people was whether or not to pass the death sentence on the unborn child of the destitute woman. The law recognises several situations where an abortion is legal and acceptable. The acceptable reasons for an abortion include the decision of the woman herself (in case she was raped or if the contraceptive she used failed causing her grave mental anguish) and also cases where the continuation of the pregnancy poses an imminent and real danger to the life of the mother. In this particular case, however, the pregnant woman was said to be mentally unsound her mental condition was described to the court to be that of a six-or-seven-year-old child. It was, therefore, argued most ably and most unfortunately by the high representative of society at large that her inability to appreciate the joys of motherhood, or her inability to look after the child would impose an undue burden on society and the baby must, therefore, be killed before it had drawn a single breath. The counsel for the Union Territory of Chandigarh was at his eloquent best when he argued in favour of abortion. The underlying subtext was there for all to see the woman is retarded and herself a destitute burden on society the child is likely to be retarded and an even greater burden on society no one would be benefited by letting the child live. So kill it. What was unsaid or perhaps not appreciated in the court over the several days that the doyens of the legal profession argued, even as the miracle of nature was taking shape in that womans womb, was that the only and the sole reason for the existence of the state is to protect its citizens and to provide them with all that they need to live with dignity and in peace. It remained unstated in the court that while executing the social contract, we the people did not sign over the right to be killed, terrorised or needlessly incarcerated on the whims of the Leviathan. Having failed in its primary duty to protect the weak and the infirm, how could the Union Territory of Chandigarh possibly hide behind callous statements in the doctors reports that She did not volunteer for sex and did not like the sexual act in order to avoid its further duty to the woman and her unborn child? What was probably not urged before the Judges and what the judgement does not, therefore, say is that every child who is conceived has the right to attain an identity distinct of its mother the right of being born. The exceptions that we as a people have carved out are only three-fold. Either the mother must not be desirous of giving birth; or the pregnancy threatens her very life. The last exception being, that there is credible medical evidence that the child is going to be born with congenital defects so grave that it would be cruel to bring him or her into this world. The second and third exceptions were clearly ruled out by the doctors reports. Shorn of the unnecessary and obfuscatory text, the doctors clearly said that there was no reason to believe that the child was likely to be handicapped or retarded; and that there was no reason to believe that the womans life was endangered. The only limb of the exceptions left was the issue of the desire of the mother. In this case, it was deemed that the alleged mental retardation of the woman precluded her from giving her consent to the continuation of the pregnancy and her statement that she wanted the baby was, therefore, discounted as irresponsible. Without going into the complex issues of morality and legality incidental to such a stand, it was lost sight of in the court that the culmination of a pregnancy in a birth is the rule and an abortion merely an exception, invoked in limited cases and only where there is a conscious desire arising from mental or physical trauma or necessity to invoke it. No consent maternal or medical is required to proceed with a pregnancy. But a conscious decision to terminate it is the essential requirement for an abortion. In the case at hand, standing in as the parent of the unfortunate violated woman, the state urged the court to order termination. The reasons for such a prayer are most unfortunate and most unconscionable. The first reason was that she was a destitute woman, incapable of looking after herself and, therefore, incapable of looking after the child. The second was that the child was the consequence of a rape. The third was that the child would be a perpetual burden on society. Another reason invoked was of her being unable to financially provide for herself or her child. None of these reasons can stand in the way of the child being born. It is the sole function and raison dêtre of the state to provide for and to raise and nurture such people. The state which cannot look after its unfortunate is a state which has lost its conscience and a state which has lost its moral right to be called a state. The unfortunate judgement sums up thus, We also cannot overlook the fact that if allowed to be born, the childs own life, grooming and future prospects may itself be highly disappointing. These words allowed to be born are chilling and speak volumes about the assistance which was rendered to the court. No child is required to petition a court for the right or permission to be born. No court legal, ecclesiastical, social or otherwise can arrogate to itself the right to allow or disallow children from being born. The conclusion, For the reasons stated above and in continuity of our previous order dated 9th June, 2009, we direct the petitioner Administration to act promptly and forthwith medically terminate the pregnancy of the victim in terms of Para 38 of our previous order dated 9th June, 2009. is an indictment and a death sentence pronounced on a child who has yet to be born. It flies in the face of each and every theory of human rights and in the face of humanity itself. Judgements, it is said, are a reflection not of the judges intellect or capacities. Judgements are a reflection of the assistance received by a judge in the court. Bad cases and bad submissions make for bad judgements and horrendous precedents. By all standards of legal morality, this judgement was an
Au revoir, My Lord
Small in size. Soft in speech. Unassuming in disposition. But at his place of work, the Supreme Court of India, this small little man Mr Justice Satya Brata Sinha, stood like a tower. Every cell in his body emitted the energy of an atom. Application and industry were his instruments. Hard work, a habit. A good memory, an unfailing asset. Today, on his 66th birthday when he bids bye to the Court, a word in praise is his legitimate due. In fact, it is the debt that we owe to his virtues. After a successful career at the Bar, he was elevated to the Bench of the Patna High Court in March, 1987. In May, 1994, he was transferred to Calcutta. He was appointed as Acting Chief Justice in 1999. Then he took over the reins of the Andhra Pradesh High Court as the Chief Justice in December, 2000. He was transferred to the Delhi High Court on November 26, 2001. He was then elevated to the Supreme Court on October 3, 2002. Today, he has completed more than 22 years as a Judge. Truly, a long tenure. Qualitatively, a very fruitful one. The contemporaries look at the man. Posterity judges him by his work. To those like me, who have only seen him at work, he was erudite but not arrogant. A hard task master. But not harsh. Industrious but not intolerant. Knowledgeable. Yet, not presumptuous. Totally committed. Decent and dignified. Good and gracious. Patient and persevering. In his court, what mattered was the case. Not the face. He saw the cause. Not the counsel. Posterity shall see his work. They will have a lot to applaud. Each volume of the Law Reports containing the judgements of the Court shall bear testimony to the hard work that this frail little man put in. Each of his opinions is invariably a review of all the past precedents on the point in issue. And he did this day after day. Week after week. Month by month. During all the years that he adorned the Bench at the Supreme Court. To him duty was like debt. He discharged it without delay or demur. Today, we lament the backbreaking delays of law. In certain cases, there is delay even in the delivery of decisions. But never when Justice Sinha had heard the case. He has been prolific and prompt. His example is graven on the rock. It is worthy of emulation. And despite the heavy load of work, he never missed an opportunity to attend conferences, seminars or symposiums and share his knowledge. He was often seen at different high courts, judicial academies, law schools and universities. He worked like a horse and lived like a hermit. He carried a clear conscience to bed every night. Today, he can look back with satisfaction. Au revoir, My Lord! A very happy birthday! May your clan
Secret deal to keep Karzai in power
less than two weeks to go until national elections, the Afghan President, Hamid Karzai, is trying to cut a secret deal with one of his rivals to knock out his leading contender and ensure a decisive victory to avoid the chaos that a tight result might unleash. Afghanistans second democratic polls threaten to split the country along sectarian lines. That would risk undermining US and British-led peace efforts which are already under pressure from a resurgent Taliban. Mr Karzai and his main challenger, Abdullah Abdullah, hail from different ethnic groups and different regions. If neither wins outright in round one on 20 August, officials fear Afghanistan could be engulfed by violence reminiscent of the civil war of the 1990s. The whole country is armed. Everybody has weapons. You have to keep everyone happy, an Afghan analyst said. Mr Abdullahs campaign staff have threatened to hold demonstrations should Mr Karzai win, insisting that he could only do so fraudulently. Mr Abdullahs supporters, who are largely Tajik, have warned of Iranian-style protests, but with Kalashnikovs, should the President win a second term. Although Mr Karzai, a Pashtun, is still the favourite, his supporters fear that a third candidate, Ashraf Ghani, could split the Pashtun vote, depriving the President of the 51 per cent share he needs to win, and opening the door to Mr Abdullah. On Thursday, details emerged of how the President was trying to join forces with Mr Ghani to unite the Pashtun vote and knock Mr Abdullah out of the race. Officials said the President had offered Mr Ghani a job as chief executive a new post described as similar to prime minister. If Ghani agrees to the terms, Karzai will dump his team and move forward, with Karzai as President and Ghani as chief executive, a campaign official told The Independent last night. Richard Holbrooke, the US special envoy to Afghanistan and Pakistan, and Karl Eikenberry, the US ambassador, are understood to have discussed the proposal with Mr Ghani late last month. It makes sense, a policy analyst with close links to the US administration said. Holbrooke likes Ghani, and he has come round to the fact that Karzai will probably win. The idea of a chief executive was hatched in Washington as a way of handing the responsibility of running the government to a skilled technocrat. Mr Ghani has an impressive pedigree as a former university professor and finance minister. Two years ago, he was a contender to head the World Bank. What he lacks and what might make the deal attractive to him is the grassroots support that Mr Karzai and Mr Abdullah enjoy. Sources close to the Presidents inner circle confirmed that they had made an offer to Mr Ghani two weeks ago and the Presidents brother, Qayum Karzai, had made the first approach. His argument was that Mr Ghani couldnt win and even if he did, he couldnt hold on to power. For Karzai its logical, said a businessman with friends in the Presidents team. He doesnt want to divide the Pashtun vote, and if it goes to a second round hes going to lose. US embassy officials have denied any involvement in back-room deals. Foreign diplomats are desperate to avoid being seen to be influencing the election but the international community is equally keen to avoid bloodshed when the results are announced. On Thursday night, Mr Ghanis staff said he was campaigning as usual and had no plans to pull out of the race. They said the Mr Karzais offer was proof of their own candidates strength. The President, who has been in power since US-led troops overthrew the Taliban regime in 2001, has been criticised for his lack of control outside of the capital, the slow pace of development and endemic government corruption, but many people admire him for weaving friends and enemies together. He has always played a game with the Northern Alliance, the Hazaras and the warlords, said the Afghan analyst. Giving people positions and promises, he was very clever keeping everyone together. During this election campaign, Mr Karzai has made deals with tribal leaders and local strongmen, promising them positions and patronage in exchange for the votes they control. International officials believe as many as 20 cabinet positions have already been pledged. It is unclear what would happen to these deals if Mr Ghani came on board. However, some observers believe the deal could signal the emergence of a unity government. Everyone realises that winner takes all wont work, said one. Violence, already at its worst since the Taliban were ousted after the September 11 attacks, has increased in the run-up to the poll. Yesterday brought news of a bomb attack on a family heading to a wedding in Garmsir, in Helmand province. Five people were reported killed. In a separate attack, in Naad Ali, five policemen died when a bomb exploded near their vehicle. In western Afghanistan, a roadside bomb killed four US Marines, bringing the death toll of Western troops for the first week of August to at least 15.n

Punjab in financial mess THE 2009-10 budget of the Punjab government has tried to present a rosy picture of the state finances, but all is not well and the state is heading towards a financial crunch due to the burgeoning committed expenditure, indiscriminate subsidies and a marginal increase in revenue receipts. The revenue and fiscal deficit of the state is on the rise and was budgeted at Rs.4,234 crore and Rs.7,660 crore for the current fiscal year, compared to the last fiscals Rs 1,000 crore and Rs 4,365 crore. The revised estimates of both escalated to Rs.3,812 crore and Rs. 6,856 crore with the former increasing 3.8 folds and the latter by 57 per cent due to a decline in the projected revenue receipts, which fell from Rs 24,261crore to Rs. 22,919 crore. The current year deficit will be mainly due to an upward revision of the pay scales, for which Rs. 3,000 crore has been earmarked, and an increase in interest payments on the mounting debt of the state. The committed expenditure of the government comprising salaries, pensions and interest payments has increased substantially to Rs. 18,242 crore translating into 81 per cent of the total revenue receipts, whereas last year it was slated to be 69 per cent, but was later on revised upwards to 77 per cent of the receipts on account of a shortfall of revenue receipts. The falling revenue and increasing expenses coupled with massive subsidies has led to a massive increase in the debt burden of the state. The total outstanding debt, which was Rs. 48,344 crore in 2006-07, will mount to Rs 63,217 crore by the end of the current fiscal, showing an increase of Rs 14,873 crore in just three years at the rate of Rs 4,933 crore a year. The mounting debt is leading to a higher outgo on account of interest payments, which will be massive Rs 5,349 crore for the current year, being 20 per cent of the revenue receipts and 29 per cent of the committed non-plan expenditure. If the amount of debt repayment of Rs 6363 crore is also added, the total outgo for debt servicing goes alarmingly to Rs 11,712 crore, being 45 per cent of the total revenue receipts, against the benchmark of 22 per cent, putting the state into a virtual debt trap. A loan of Rs 11,021 crore will be raised by the state during the year which reveals that the government is borrowing to repay loan and interest on the same. The outstanding debt of Haryana is much lower at Rs. 39,654 crore for the fiscal 2009-10, a little more than half of Punjabs. In the wake of the increased expenditure, the performance of the state on the revenue front is also dismal as against the total revenue expenditure of Rs.30,306 crore, its revenue receipts remain at Rs.26,072 crore, falling short by Rs 4,234 crore or 14 per cent of the total revenue expenditure. The tax and non-tax revenues comprises Rs.14,062 crore and Rs.5,433 crore whereas Rs 4,577 will be by way of the share from central taxes and grants and another Rs 2,000 crore will be arranged from other sources not mentioned in the budget. The major chunk of tax revenue is contributed by VAT, which accounts for 60 per cent of the total revenue receipts, and the balance 40 per cent by state excise, stamp duty, tax on vehicles and electricity duty. The state has only five heads for tax revenue, which are too few and it has to rely only on the traditional tax sources. To bridge the widening gap between revenue receipts and expenditure, it needs to widen its tax net and explore new sources of tax. The poor financials for the last many years have cast a shadow on the growth numbers of the state, with the growth rate remaining low at 5.13 per cent during the 10th Plan as compared to the national average of 7.8 per cent and has been projected at 5.9 per cent for the 11th Plan, whereas the country will grow at 9 per cent. The state plan is also suffering due to a resource crunch and has been hiked by only 16.4 per cent to Rs 8,625 crore compared to the previous fiscal. A major portion of the plan funds is spent on non-plan items. For example, Rs 2,597 crore or 30 per cent of the total plan size, will be spent on giving subsidy to the PSEB for free power to the farm sector or purchase of power from the market instead of capacity addition or improving the supply network. If the things are not set in order at the earliest, the state may find it difficult to meet its salary and pension liabilities in the near future. It is time the state government moves to explore new sources of revenue and shun the indiscriminate subsidies to save itself from a financial catastrophe and a debt

Inside Pakistan The Pakistan Supreme Court judgement declaring the November 2007 emergency unconstitutional has led to a feeling in almost every section of society that the days of military dictators are gone. The verdict has emboldened the democratic forces. There is new enthusiasm among political parties, particularly the rank and file of the PML(N). Political commentators have been of the view that if Gen Pervez Musharraf, who imposed the emergency to perpetuate his arbitrary rule, is tried for the offence (high treason) he committed he cannot escape death punishment. But will he really be tried? Going by what the newspapers say, it is difficult to believe that the Pakistan National Assembly (parliament), where the Generals trial should take place in accordance with the apex court verdict, will be able to punish him for trampling the 1973 constitution. Prime Minister Yousuf Raza Gilani wants a unanimous resolution to be adopted by parliament to launch the trial which does not seem to be possible under the circumstances. It will be, therefore, interesting to watch the debate that will follow after the PML (N) of Mr Nawaz Sharif comes out with its promised resolution for nailing General Musharraf. The Daily Times says, The November 2007 emergency order of General Musharraf names some people as consultees, and among them are also the officers in the military high command, including the current Army Chief. The rumour is that the Army has communicated its view about any trial of General Musharraf to the Supreme Court through a leader of the lawyers movement. The News expressed the view that the trial must happen to set a precedent for the future. But priority must also be to move on, and see what we (Pakistan) can do now to recover from the many ills that held us back in the past.
Pro-woman measure In a country where women find it difficult to live a life of dignity, the enactment of a law to curb domestic violence has been long overdue. Thus, the Domestic Violence Act, passed by the Pakistan National Assembly, is bound to provide great relief to women. It is to be adopted by the Senate, but that cannot be a problem. According to The Nation, One form (of violence against the fair sex), for instance, is that of stove-burning, a crime that involves killing a woman by burning her up and later attributing the death to the stove explosion as if it was some accident. Likewise, women are regularly harassed in cases where division of property is concerned. The conditions in the rural areas owing to lack of education are simply worst
. However, law alone is not enough. There is need to change the very mindset of society, which is traditionally biased against women. There is a question mark over the implementation of the law. As The News says, A key factor will be the question of how the law will be implemented. The police will inevitably play an important role. The task of investigating crime and following up complaints is essentially one that falls on them. This, too, is the area where problems have arisen in the past. Women bringing charges of violence against husbands or other family members have often failed to secure cooperation.
Troubled minorities Pakistan, which has been experiencing social tensions for a long time, cannot afford to add to its worries on this front. Hence the move to review the blasphemy law after the killing of seven Christians on Saturday at Gojra in Punjab. This law has been coming in the way of punishing anyone resorting to violence against minorities. According to The Daily Times, Prime Minister Yousuf Raza Gilani on Thursday visited Gojra and declared that A committee ... will discuss the laws detrimental to religious harmony to sort out how they could be improved. The federal government has announced Rs 100 million as aid for the victims. The same amount of aid will be given by the Punjab government too. Punjab Governor Salman Taseer sees in the killing of the Christians a design to destabilise the PPP government in Islamabad. Efforts are on to identify the culprits so that they can be brought to
