SAN FRANCISCO --The San Francisco Giants have one more major honor to receive for last season's World Series Championship.
On Monday the team will be meeting with President Barack Obama at the White House during a ceremony saluting their World Series sweep of the Detroit Tigers back in October.
It's the second time the president has honored the Giants at the White House. He did the same thing two years ago after the team's World Series victory over the Texas Rangers.

Polish rail operator WKD opts for IVU.realtime
IVU provides passenger information system for Warsaw–Grodzisk line
Berlin/Warsaw, 26 September 2017 – The WKD (Warszawska Kolej Dojazdowa) rail system links Warsaw with its suburbs in the southwest. As part of extensive modernisation, the company has now implemented an IVU Traffic Technologies passenger information system.
Using twenty-one modern multiple units, WKD conveys around eight million passengers annually to and from the Polish capital across a distance of 33 kilometres with 28 stop points. This makes the connection between Warsaw and Grodzisk Maziwiecki one of the most frequented railway lines in the country. In recent years, the company has invested heavily in modernising and expanding its services. To good effect: Today, the WKD is the most punctual railway operator in Poland. To further boost the attractiveness of its services WKD now informs its passengers of current departure times in real time.
The IVU.fleet control centre solution continuously processes location data from the vehicles and displays them in the graphical dispatch view. Directly connected to the control centre, IVU.realtime transmits actual data to over 100 stop displays at stations, as well as to smartphones and the internet, using the Unified Realtime API. The user interface in the IVU system is provided entirely in Polish. In addition, a bilingual text-to-speech application allows automatic loudspeaker announcements to be given in Polish and English.
IVU's Polish partner, Comp S.A., was responsible for project management. "Day by day, the WKD ensures reliable transport in one of the most dynamic regions in Europe. The modernisation of passenger information is an important component in its further development. With the flexible IVU system, WKD is ideally equipped to expand its services in future," says Michał Stawiński from Comp.
Martin Müller-Elschner, CEO of IVU Traffic Technologies, adds, "With this order, we have gained an important reference in a key market in Europe. The Polish market offers great opportunities that we want to tap into together with Comp. The successful project process has reaffirmed our strategy of working closely with experienced local partners and making use of their expertise."

BLOOMFIELD, NJ — With the NFL playoffs heating up, those teams not fortunate enough to make the postseason get a jumpstart on improving their roster for the following season. The New York Giants recently locked down Bloomfield High School graduate Kristjan Sokoli, signing him to its practice squad and giving him a futures contract.
NFL teams use futures contracts to claim the rights to players they think will be able to make some noise in the upcoming season. It's the same as a regular active-roster contract, with the regular rules for minimum veteran salaries, cap charges, signing bonuses, among others. The only difference is that it doesn't take effect until the start of the next league year.
Teams can sign players to futures contracts as soon as the previous regular season is over, but the contract won't count against the salary cap or 53-man limit. Instead, it'll count against the salary cap and 90-man camp limit of the following season. In the meantime, the player goes on the reserve/futures list and can't be signed by any other team.
Sokoli graduated from Bloomfield High School in 2010. Aside from being an all-conference football star who excelled at many different positions, he also made his mark as a discus thrower, finishing sixth in the state in his senior year. After high school, Sokoli committed to the University at Buffalo where he played on the defensive line full-time. He majored in business administration with hopes of working on Wall Street if he wasn't able to make a career in football.
With their sixth round pick in the 2015 NFL draft, the Seattle Seahawks selected Sokoli. He wouldn't play until week 16 of that season where he was inserted into eight special team plays during the game. Those plays may not have been flashy, but they made Sokoli the first Albanian-born player in NFL history.
After being waived by the Seahawks before the 2016 season, he latched on with the Indianapolis Colts and New Orleans Saints before the Giants came calling for the 6-foot-5, nearly 300 pound offensive lineman.
TAPinto Bloomfield reached out to Sokoli to learn more about his journey from Bloomfield's Foley Field to the NFL.
What was your greatest memory of playing at Bloomfield High School?
Two moments that stick out, beating East Orange at their field senior year which was a catalyst for turning our season around and tying the country record for relay shot put throw was really cool.
How often do you come back to town?
I come back to town pretty often. My family is here. Now it looks like I may be in town even more. I'm excited to maybe get the chance to work with the Bloomfield football and track teams in my time away.
How did it feel the first time you stepped onto the field during an NFL game?
Pretty surreal. I dreamed about that moment for a long time, so I had to calm myself down. You realize pretty quickly though that it's just football and all the extra stuff is just a distraction.
What team did you root for growing up?
The Giants.
What is the hardest part of the conditioning programs for NFL teams?
Every team is a little bit different. It's a mental challenge more than anything. Of course, the off-season program is physically demanding but you've gone through that in college, so you know what you're in for. I think it's what you make of it, too. Only you really know how hard you're working and what your potential is in each workout.

The green flag has dropped on the 22nd Annual Vintage Racing Celebration.
Today and tomorrow, take in the sights and sounds of racing as it was during the early years. This historically significant race field will take on the 1.058 "Magic Mile" oval, featuring vintage midgets, sprint cars, champ cars, roadsters, NASCAR stock cars and even INDY cars.
"Witness the sounds that you don't get to hear anymore," says Ray Boissoneau, a diehard vintage racer. "The old ones you get the Caster oil, you get that smell in your nostrils, and you get a chance to see, hear and smell cars you'd never have a chance to see."
Come on down and mingle in the pits, peek under the hoods and visit the garage area for an up-close look at the men and women who dedicate their time to preserving the rich history of auto racing.
The 2012 Annual Vintage Racing Celebration continues through Sunday and the Road Course Days will begin Saturday.

a throwback to my boyfriend's birthday:
The smell of your cologne
Or the morning on your breath
The scent of the unknown
And the air behind your path
Is this what heaven smells like?
The taste of your lips
And of when we wine and dine
The sensation on my tongue
When yours touches mine
Is this what heaven tastes like?
The look on your face
It makes my heart stop
It's so surreal, how wondrous you are
Yet so real my dream can pop
Is this what heaven looks like?
The warmth of your hand
When it locks in mine
The pain that feels so good
Makes me know everything is fine
Is this what heaven feels like?
Today you turn twenty-one
And I wish you all the joy
You made me know heaven
And I wish you'd know too, boy

July 7, 2008
By Ivan Raconteur
Staff Writer
The first of two roundabouts that are part of the Highway 7 improvement project is set to open Friday, July 11.
During Wednesday's project update at the Hollywood Ranch House, MnDOT Engineer Kelly Brunkhorst said assuming there are no delays, the roundabout at Carver County Road 10 will open Friday.
Both the County Road 10 and Highway 25 intersections will remain open over the weekend, and then the Highway 25 intersection will be closed Monday, July 14 so construction can begin on that intersection.
Last week, crews were milling and paving the section of Highway 7 between County Road 10 and St. Bonifacius.
This week, crews are expected to finish installing signs near the roundabout and completing pavement striping.
Once the County Road 10 roundabout is open, the section between that intersection to St. Bonifacius will be open to local traffic. The official detour for through traffic will not change until some time in August.
MnDOT Engineer Dave Johnson said once the Highway 25 intersection reopens, MnDOT will consider moving the detour from Highway 41 to Highway 25, and at that point, the section of Highway 7 east of Highway 25 will reopen.
The deep organic (muck) excavation between McLeod County Road 15 and Eagle Avenue has been completed.
Johnson and Brunkhorst both said they have heard many people express concerns that trucks will not be able to negotiate the roundabouts.
Both said they have followed the contractor's trucks through the roundabout, and said trucks had been getting through the roundabouts and staying within the traffic lanes.
Once paving is completed, Johnson said, trucks will have even more room, with the trailering apron and shoulders open.
The speed limit in the roundabout will be 10 to 20 mph, Johnson said. He noted that the roundabouts are designed to drain to the outside, and anyone driving faster than the recommended speed will feel uncomfortable because of the way the road is sloped.

What's the name of that Indian henna tattoo on her hand?
Love her hair with the red hue, matching glasses.
She looks great in black, ... how can you go wrong with such a gorgeous model
I want that hair cut; it looks so good in summer.
Black is classic.
I want to look like THAT this summer!! :-) Tarynn
This is a nice slihouette but the matching button-strap detail (what is that called?) gathering both the sleeves AND the shorts is too cute-not in a good way. It almost gives a childish look to the outfit- like she's wearing a playsuit or something (which I guess she is, in a way). I'd say one or the other would be preferable to the "matching set". While I've seen this detail on sleeves many times I don't think I've ever seen it on shorts. I like it on these- not as bulky as the sleeve treatment.
this is so simple....III love it!!! the henna tattoo adda a really childish element to a beautiful adult look. very cool.
Love the hair, glasss, and outfit. However the body is frightening. She needs curves.
What's her number...
Love it! Love it! Love it! She looks so sexy, yet sophisticated!
Niceee! Love her sunglasses.
When I first saw her hand, I thought that it was veiny and disgusting, but then I took a closer look and it was actually a nice henna! haha.
She looks so gorgeous in her simplicity.
The henna tattoos are called "mehendi"-- pronounced
'me' (as in "many"), 'hen' (like the bird), dee (with a soft 'd.')
I love the look, esp. in LA, but I hope she's just really young and not too, too thin from dieting. Maybe it's just the way she's standing. Ach, LA freaks me out. Anyway, she's gorgeous and has a lot of style.
I love how her henna tatoos really enhance an otherwise super-simple outfit. Just really completes it. :3
nice hair...!
really nice hair cut and colour...
Quelle belle fille. Beautiful hair.
Her healthy haor really makes this great. Not fan of fringes but I love hers.
Being an avid reader of your blog, and being a young 20-something in LA, I'm stoked that you finally posted a few pictures from LA recently.
Love her look, love her attitude. she looks like New York in LA.
Is that the same girl that posed with Superman on Hollywood Blvd a while back??
I heart her.
So very sexy. She looks effortless. I love her jewelry and henna tattoos. They go so perfectly with the outfit.
anything would look good on her, she has attitude. love skinny girls like that, very pretty.
**would have loved to see the hair pulled back off her face.
hate that she bites her nails (or used to)-love the way the shirt opens in the front **
Love her.
Summer, please don't go away!!!
She looks gorgeous, and I agree that her hair is just outstanding. Regarding the sort of playsuit look to her outfit that someone commented on...she's at the pool! I think it especially goes well there. Perhaps if she were out to eat or something it might look a bit off (but maybe not).
Although LA as a city isn't my favorite, this shot is refreshing over the usual city shots in that there are sunny skies and and you can tell she's outside! Just lovely.
Now are those tattoos just for fun or did she just attend an Indian Wedding?
she looks like a girl from New York visiting LA, who has great clothes but not in the way of LA style. it looks great
i loooove this look. it's so fresh and slightly edgy. :)
her henna tatoo and fringy haircut makes the look. i really like the sleeves, but i think black is too severe for the sunny poolside. if that were an all white outfit, it'd be perfect. black makes her look uncomfortably hot.
Wonderful, like a picture of Slim Aarons. Goodbye
superb photo and outfit. This girl exemplifies the LA vibe...fashionable, laid back and confident. It's so funny to hear New Yorkers putting LA down. Ahhh, jealous of the sunny skies and laid back attitude. It's ok. We still love you. p.s. here's a tip..next time you visit LA, explore more than just Beverly Hills and Hollywood Blvd. and you will get the real LA experience.. cheers.
She looks great. Her outfit is so simple chic and it fits her small frame so well. The glasses fit her face really well and the hair is to die for!!!
People need to expand their thinking about LA fashion! What most people see are people from Hollywood and the Westside tanorexics ... the eastside of LA - Silverlake, Loz Feliz,Eagle Rock, Echo Park - is where you'll see a more eclectic style
my wife is going to love this site. she is studying fashion right now.
Cyber Monday
I'd say she looks super-LA. The only part that might make her look more NY style (but not myself) would be that she's wearing all black maybe. But I think the black looks especially good with her shade of hair.
her bangs are super heavy, she's really cute
does anyone know the maker of that romper??
i really think it's one of the best i've seen this year..
Wow! does anyone know who makes those glasses?
this really reminded me of chanel somehow, but otherwise very pretty look and i love the hair!
she is a local l.a singer /scenester
i think she is a real beauty. it's really hard to distinguish l.a or ny look anymore. everyone looks similar which is good for L.A
very filmesque photo ....kind like Quentin T. movie character.
love it
p.s. have a good vacation
CC Sheffield is one of the most beautiful people I have ever seen, she could make any outfit look desirable.
Very sexy, great look. I so wish summer would stay longer this year... I know skiing is great and all... but you only see girls like this in summer. At least in our hemisphere...
Great, like a pictures of Slim Aarons.Goodbye
The picture looks like a HedKandi CD cover! Simple but perfect and sophisticated!
She looks like a taller and brunette Scarlett Johanson!
Wow, she looks stunning. Simplicity is key (especially in the summer).
So gorgeous.
great hear and tatoos!
i quite like this look.
her tatted hands are a nice touch, too.
Isn't that C.C. Sheffield?
Hey Sartorialists!
Is this the same girl posted sitting with spiderman not so long ago? The two girls looks super similar and kinda have the same henna tattoo thing happening.. any way both are amazing!
Woo I'm hesh!
Perfect, sophisticated, young, cool. She's awesome, and I love how you photographed her all-dark look against the amazing pool jewel blue. Fantastic!
i love the henna with the hipster-y look.
i can't wait to be in la in a few months for a long weekend!
She plays good music...
Le Rev
I would like to see about your beach fashion. Tk you.
Aside from the cute hair...
Am I missing something??
Its funny that people keep saying she looks New York. Why, because she is wearing black?? The skimpy shorts, the perfect trendy hair, huge shades extreme skinnyness, the henna, the super blue pool with the palm trees.... she could not be more LA. The shot looks like a cover of LA magazine. But it looks good on her.
what a great look, not to mention black is one of my favorites for chicness ;)
'designing your life'
pretty much anytime it's the summer, LA runs as fashion king, and in the winter, fall, and spring, the award goes to NYC, but this girl looks 100% LA, which is a FANTASTIC city for fashion, but if you don't know the cityscape, you'll never know where to find it.
LA is a city where people avoid being in public, but crave attention. The hottest people with the greatest clothes are in secret clubs and behind tinted windows, but every once in a while one of the elite slip into the public eye and haute coutour is revealed.
i love how she is knock out gorgeous and has cellulite.
her hair is the whole deal.
Damn, that's real hot! And the pool's nice too!
Beautiful, but I have to disagree about the hair being a great summer look. I've had bangs in the summer. Not fun at all. It looks ridiculous wet and even worse windblown from a convertible. Not to mention the sweaty forehead. But, it looks stunning on her of course.
Wow, I just looked her music up based on another's comment. It's really good, really. Lovely girl and that's hair tdf!
love the hair
she makes me want a fringe! amazing shot.
I think this is the silk romper from Armani Exchange... If not, A|X has something very similar.
A few people have said "go outside of Hollywood"-- forgetting or not realizing in the first place that the crowd at the Roosevelt poolside is filled with Silverlake/Echo Park/Downtowners...many of whom sport as indie an LA style as you will come by. CC lives in Echo Park. Cheers!
tell me why one would wear black by the pool...great way to get hot. and the outfit and glasses look very 80's to me. sorry...
I love this look! Her hair, sunglasses, everything looks great. Her bangs are perfect.
So lovely. She looks just like my girl who's just started college. Really nice.
Blast from the past. I think I had that same outfit as a teenager--circa 1984. Love the henna tattoos!
looks like a good southern baptist
fly her to london
It seems to me that she is not trying to say anything.
And it is that thing exactly, that make her look as lovely as ever.
This is one of the most beautiful pictures i have ever seen.
She's like a silhouette,
the way her outfit contrasts with the background is mesmerizing.
This must have been the one Jim Morrison was singing about.
I can't stop staring at this photo! Everything about it. The body makes the outfit. Her butt makes the outfit! I want to look like this outside everyday!
She embodies summer!
Indian Henna Tattoo: "Mehendi"
Nice picture! Love the contrast of the blue of the pool and the black of the outfit. Nice sunlight.
Love this look -soo cool! She looks like a girl who could say: " baby, your're too sweet for rock n' roll..."
I'm mad because I'm gonna go outside today and NOT look like this.
I'd love going to work, even at a sucky job, if I had her style, look, hair!
hot! great colors too.
Her name is Fahrani, she's a model from Indonesia.
Ooh! I love henna! She must have stood out wearing black by the pool.. Love her fringe and sunglasses
i think the romper is Daryl K from last spring season. she's hot, period.
Very chic and sexy. I really love her hair!
I knew I saw you there. I should have said hello.
Very LA summer chic.
if...i'm not mistaken the girl's a model from indonesia, Fahrani. she's well known and quite exotic. got a lot of 'stories' to tell.
sorry if im wrong coz she looked like her a lot
this girl is bangin
This girl does not look new york at all. this is very l.a. you cant say angelenos have no style because every neighborhood has its own personality and many designers are inspired by our natural laid-back casual chic look.The city of beautiful people. PERIOD:)
I'd marry her.
easy and breezy.
love the outfit :)
Arizona, not Indonesia.
She's an actress/party promoter originally from Arizona. Cool as can be, actress and party promoter called CeCee Sheffield, did some hosting work for Nylon mag online and was in an LA band tho not sure if that's still the case. She is/was also a cobrasnake favorite.
Imdb her
She reminds me of Isabelle Adjani, only with lighter hair. I normally don't like the idea of wearing black in summer, but this works.
shhhhhh.... it's the bangs and the frames.
she's definitely Fahrani!
What understated class! I love her look! I want to steal this!
quintessential LA
yes, she is the lovely indonesian fahrani. i have been searching for a romper like this one for ages... it is perfect down to the button details! grr! love, delia xoxo
hi im c.c. sheffield just saw this and read the comments. um im not fahrani, no i met the satorialist from my friend karina she said met her friend from nyc and bring some clothes at the roosevelt pool. he was nice didnt know about his site until i took a look afterward. i was also in he spidey pic and everyone kept talking about my brusied shins. sartorialist you are an amazing photographer, can you send some pics of me and karina? xo cc
LA hiptser but i dig it
i'm confused by c.c.'s comments...i always imagined the sartorialist's photos to be rather "happy accident". I believed he wandered the fashionable streets of the world & happened upon the beautiful people with fabulous style & shot them then & there... why did karina ask cc to "bring" outfits & meet her at the pool? was this a photo shoot of the traditional variety or an impromptu session? i'm such a fan of this bog...please tell me my initial assumptions were correct!
that photo was shot specifically for GQ to give the feel of LA but the rest are "found images"
This is the girl that every man wants. Her confidence is just inspiring.
I'm in love
c.c.'s not only increibly beautiful..but an amazin laid back person at that...with one of the most original music styles and tastes..but also dj's...
i know a million and one guys who would love to marry her
OMG, i know her!! she is Indonesian Model..
Her name is Fahrani.. I luv her!
Wow, she is in this blog! so cool!

Living in the Flow
If I could share 500 words to inspire, this is the important wisdom I'd want to pass along to others...
As I've grown and matured I have noticed a recurring pattern in my life. Things move the easiest – business, family life, friendships, my goals – when I am in a state of Flow. What do I mean by "Flow"? It is a feeling of happiness in the present while having a positive expectancy for the future.
But let me break it down further. The state of Flow has been described in different ways by different people. Tony Robbins calls it "State". Jose Silva calls it "Expectancy". Donald Trump refers to it as "Positive Stamina". I believe they are all referring to the same thing.
Flow is composed of two ingredients.
The first is being happy in the now. This means being happy and joyful in your present state. It's about enjoying the journey and not the destination.
The next ingredient is vision. It's about having a powerful, beautiful dream for who you want to be and what you want to accomplish and contribute to the world in the future.
All of us can therefore exist in 4 states of mind based on these two ingredients.
Without happiness in the present and a future vision, you're what I call in a "Negative Spiral". Things feel bad now and will continue to look bad in the future.
If you're happy in the present but have no future vision you're "Content". But you're not living your full potential. Two of our greatest spiritual needs are growth and contribution. Without a future vision of who you want to be and what mark you want to make on the world you're really not living up to your true purpose.
Then we have a state that is very common with today's entrepreneurs and workaholics. A solid vision of the future but no happiness in the present. This is a state I call "Stress and Anxiety". You have a vision, but you're unhappy in the now. This is not a recipe for success.
The final and ideal state is "Flow". You're happy in the now AND have a strong vision of the future. This is Flow. This is when the magic happens.
Remember that movie "The Secret". In it, the recipe for the Law of Attraction was defined as "Thoughts + Emotions = Attraction". Let's think about that for a moment. "Thoughts" are really your desires and visions for what you want to attract into your life. And "Emotions" describe your current state. The movie advises that emotions should be positive and happy.
See the correlation? The recipe for "Flow" is the same as the proposed recipe for the "Law of Attraction". They both fit together.
And perhaps this is why, when we're in a state of Flow, so many things in our life just seem to go right. The right people step into our lives, the right opportunities fall into our laps. It's as if the Universe is conspiring on our behalf.
I propose that we chose to live our lives in Flow. Set big bold goals, but enjoy the journey. Your happiness should not be tied to your goals. Live life in the moment and express gratitude for the little things that make you happy.
The most important discipline for me is to make sure I'm in that state of Flow every day. I call this "Blisscipline". The discipline of bliss.

Hortonworks Proposes New Apache Hadoop Incubation Projects to
Further Fuel Open Source Innovation
New Efforts Focus on Improving Latency, Throughput and Security for Hadoop Applications
PALO ALTO, Calif.—February 20, 2013—Hortonworks, a leading contributor to Apache Hadoop, today announced the submission of two new incubation projects to the Apache Software Foundation and the launch of the Stinger Initiative, three efforts aimed at enhancing the security and performance of Hadoop applications. As part of its continued commitment to making Apache Hadoop an enterprise-viable data platform, Hortonworks is introducing these projects to address key enterprise requirements in an open and collaborative way within the Hadoop community.
"Our approach to innovation has been consistent from when our team began their work on the Hadoop project at Yahoo! more than seven years ago," said Greg Pavlik, vice president of engineering for Hortonworks. "Simply put, we believe that the fastest way to innovate is to do our work within the open source community, introduce enterprise feature requirements into the public domain, and collaborate with others to progress existing open source projects or incubate new projects to meet those needs. By staying true to our 100-percent open source philosophy and applying enterprise software rigor to the test and release process, we can continue to accelerate the adoption of Hadoop within mainstream enterprises."
The proposed incubation projects and the Stinger Initiative follow on the success of similar innovative projects initiated within the community by Hortonworks engineers, including Apache Ambari, Apache HCatalog and Apache Hadoop YARN, which are now foundational elements of Apache Hadoop for the enterprise.
The new efforts focus on enterprise requirements that are essential for broad adoption across the Hadoop ecosystem:
Hortonworks has proposed Tez and Hadoop Gateway as incubator projects to the Apache Software Foundation and looks forward to engaging with the community on these proposals.
About Hortonworks
Hortonworks is a leading commercial vendor of Apache Hadoop, the preeminent open source platform for storing, managing and analyzing big data. Our distribution, Hortonworks Data Platform powered by Apache Hadoop, provides an open and stable foundation for enterprises and a growing ecosystem to build and deploy big data solutions.

Spanish GP Preview: European leg of the season begins here
The "Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya" is one of the few old tracks still present in the calendar. It was built in 1991, hence the 2015 edition of the race marks the 25th running of the event. With the circuit offering plenty of long straights and a variety of corners, it is the favourite destination among rulemakers for pre-season and mid-season testing. Length of the circuit is 4.655 km and drivers will complete a total of 5766 laps for a race distance of 307.104 km.
The wind direction at the circuit can heavily change during the day. Despite lesser importance of aerodynamics these days, drivers still need to adjust their braking points accordingly. It is then hard to find a good setup since cars can have understeer in one part of the circuit in the morning, and suffer oversteer at the same part of the circuit in the afternoon.
A look back at some of the classic races
Michael Schumacher has been the most successful driver at the circuit, with a total of six victories. Among the current drivers, Kimi Räikkönen, Fernando Alonso, Sebastian Vettel, Lewis Hamilton and Felipe Massa have all won here. With very few overtaking opportunities available, claiming pole position is very important in Montmeló. For instance, in 1999, only one overtaking move was made in the whole race.
In 1994, the Kaiser managed to finish in second place, although driving more than half the race with only fifth gear. In 1996, he took his first win for Ferrari, after a dominant performance in treacherous conditions. A decade later, Fernando Alonso became the first Spanish driver to win his home race.
Ferrari's Kimi Räikkönen holds the lap record since 2008. He recorded a 1.21:670s.
Circuit Guide
The main straight is very long and it ends in quite a heavy braking point for the first corner, a close right hander where there is a very good overtaking opportunity as the DRS use is allowed during the straight. Speed at the straight is about 335 km/h. They need to get a good grip at the exit of that corner because right after there is turn 2, forming a kind of medium speed chicane. Drivers should get the inside for turn number two in order to gain speed and grip at the exit as turn 3 is a flat-out and very long corner to the right. This corner puts tires under a lot of stress, specially the front left one.
Cars will get 235 km/h there, just before the short straight which leads to corner number 4, where sector 2 starts, a kind of parabolica to the right. They should brake early, entering in the corner at about 140 km/h, and then keep accelerating to carry out a lot of speed at the exit. Right after, there is turn 5, a slow left-hander taken in second gear and downhill. It is easy to lock the front tyres and the kerbs should be maximized here. Next corner is very soft and open and it is followed by a medium speed left-right chicane formed by turns 7 and 8. At this point, the track starts to go uphill again. Drivers find now a medium length straight where they go up to 225 km/h and where DRS detection point is located, before braking for corner number 9, a blind (since it starts uphill and finishes downhill) very fast corner to the right. It is easy to run wide here.
It follows a long straight, where the DRS use is allowed. Sector 3 starts here. The straight ends in a left hairpin, taken in second gear and at 70km/h. It can be a good overtaking opportunity. Turn number 11 is a fast and open corner to the left, linked to the very rounded, long and slow turn 12 to the right. Here, the track drops down again. The last section of the track has been redesigned by Hermann Tilke in 2007. In the name of safety, the speed at the pit straight had to be decreased. It was also supposed to help overtaking opportunities but, finally, it hasn't made the difference. Corner number 13 is a technical and tight one, almost 90º to the right, taken at fourth gear and at about 150 km/h. After it, drivers should change quickly the position of the car to take the racing line of the slow chicane formed by turns 14 and 15. It is a left-right chicane taken in second gear. Good traction and speed at the exit are vital to take the last corner before the main straight, a fast one to the right.
Tyre choice
In general, the circuit is quite demanding on the tyres as the asphalt is quite bumpy and the wind is usually heavy. The brake wear is low because there are not many slow corners.
Pirelli will bring to Montmeló the medium and hard compounds, since the degradation is high due to the above factors as well as the hot weather.

Before we start can you please introduce yourself and what you do?
My name is Andre' LaMothe, I am a computer scientist and author, specializing in graphics, AI, and game related algorithms and software.
For anyone that is in game programming knows your name. How has this fame affected your lifestyle?
I work constantly since I have so many projects and demands on my time, other than that I get a lot of mail and questions from complete strangers :)
What got you into programming, specifically game programming?
Simply because it was a way to create worlds in the computer.
What was the first game you ever made, even if it wasn't public?
Probably "guess my number" was the first game I made, the first decent game that I published was "Quarks" I think about 25 years ago. A vertical shooter all in 6502 Assembly language for the Atari 800.
What made you want to write books on game programming?
Because there were no books on it, and I got sick of explaining how to do it to everyone. I am very entrepreneurial, so if I see an opportunity I will take it.
Do you know how many copies of your books you have sold?
All combined my personally authored books maybe 400,000-500,000 units.
I see you are the CEO of Xtreme Games, can you elaborate more on what you and they do?
I started it to help value and small game developers get published. At a time XGames was a very powerful developer with hundreds of games and deals with all the major publishers. Then Hasbro sued the planet.
You also have a new project you are working on, XGameStation, can you elaborate on that as well?
No one seems to know anything about hardware game development. At the Game Developer's Conference there is not a SINGLE talk on console design, GPU architecture, etc. So I thought wouldn't it be cool to teach the world how to build not only game software, but game hardware – that was the seed of the idea.
Which do you prefer, DirectX or OpenGL?
DirectX, no question. OpenGL can't compare.
Speaking of DirectX, how do you feel about upcoming versions? Are they getting better and better and/or making things more complicated or easier?
They are amazing now, the API has really matured and rocks. However, they are complex, overly complex I think. Nonetheless, a little wrapper class can fix that up.
What's the best advice you can give to newbies to game developing?
Don't talk about writing games, don't write design docs, don't spend your time on web boards. Sit in your house write 20 games when you complete them you will either want to do it the rest of your life or not.
How do you feel about the future of game programming? Do you think it will be strictly math nuts or will everything balance out in the end?
It is going to continue to get technically complex, but the tools will grow to serve designers and content creators. The programming of games will be minimal in 5-7 years, there will be nothing to program, it will all be created as "content" with complex tools. There will always be programmers, but at some point there will be one programmer and hundreds of content, level, and script creators –
Do you think future games will be ultra-realistic as far as graphics and AI goes?
Absolutely, I feel that in 3-5 years games will be photorealistic or at least the cards can render photorealistic, the content developers must take advantage of the cards though.
Half-Life 2 and Doom 3 seem to have good things going for them, what is your opinion on that kind of heavy duty gaming?
Its rocks, both products are amazing; I can't wait to play them. These are going to be the kind of games you can't put down --
PC or consoles?
I like FPS on PC, but everything else on consoles.
What is your all-time favorite game; personally I'm still attached to Dune 2.
Don't laugh, but "Dig Dug" from the Arcades :) But, more recently I would have to say, "Out of this World", "Doom", "Halo".
Before we go is there anything you would like to add?
Nothing other than check out www.xgamestation.com , if you ever wanted to know how to build a game console from the ground up this project will show you how –
Thank you for your time and I hope to hear from you again.

The King still rules NASCAR in retirement
LONG POND, Pa. (AP) — Richard Petty tried resting on the green artificial turf that covered the stage used for driver introductions.
It didn't last long: At a NASCAR track, The King never goes unnoticed.
"Richard! Richard! King! King!"
Petty craned his neck and waved toward fans who couldn't resist shouting at the race's grand marshal from the three-level structure at Pocono Raceway that rises high over the front stretch.
Behind those sunglasses, a design caught Petty's eye. Yes, fans from kids to seniors had seats in the section labeled the Richard Petty 200 Victory Circle. The words were flanked by two images of Petty in his feathered Stetson hat and dark glasses.
"Well, look at that," Petty said, eyes fixed on the sign. "I didn't know that. That's the first time I ever paid attention."
Petty had no idea some of the best seats in the house had long been named in his honor.
But you don't need to sit in a pricey suite to know The King.
Long removed from his era as perhaps the greatest driver in NASCAR history, Petty sill serves as an ambassador, corporate pitchman and team owner in the sport he's called home since he was a boy. Now 77, Petty shows no signs of easing off the gas as he bounds around the track, all in the name of good business and giving back to the sport that helped make him a household name.
"I'm just idling along, trying to keep up with what they want me to do," Petty said.
There are few fans at the track these days who even remember Petty from his final season in 1992. It doesn't matter. Petty is still an A-lister around the garage, a bigger star than drivers on his race team or even the rest of the field for a Sprint Cup race.
Petty commanded a crowd during an appearance at a makeshift bowling alley set up inside a fan zone at Pocono by sponsor GoBowling.com.
On his first roll, he knocked down three pins.
"That wasn't too good," he said.
With fans snapping pictures, Petty left no pin standing on his second attempt.
"I got a spare anyway," he said, smiling.
After bowling another quick frame, it's time for Petty to split, but not before he has to pilot his way through a clog of autograph hounds who want just one autograph, one photo, from the driver who has had to have signed and posed more than anyone in NASCAR history.
"He's got a crazy life. He can't go nowhere," one fan remarked.
It's a circus life Petty would never trade for weekends at home, certainly not after his fame got fresh juice when he voiced Strip "The King" Weathers in the 2006 hit movie "Cars." Petty is warmly greeted by children in awe of the man they only know as the voice in a cartoon, not the seven-time NASCAR champion who won a record 200 races. Kids address the man in the hat as "Mr. The King." He recalled a time in England when a boy approached and asked how many times he won the Piston Cup. The Piston Cup, of course, was the championship awarded to those frisky cars from the movie.
Petty's true home is among the drivers, crew and fans that surround him at tracks from Daytona to Dover. He skipped a month this season because of the March death of his wife, Lynda, from cancer. The Pettys were married for almost six decades.
"Coming back to the racing blanked out some of the bad parts that I was having," Petty said. "It was easier for me to get back. Instead of starting a new routine, I stayed in the same one. It's just a little bit different."
Petty has pushed past the pain and found comfort at the track. It's always been the spot where he could be himself and hang up his hat — in his case, a Charlie 1 cowboy hat with a tuft of feathers in the front. Petty started wearing the hats around 1979 when he struck a deal with a manufacturer who sold them at a store operated by son Kyle Petty. Richard Petty wasn't just trying to create an iconic fashion statement; he'd just grown weary of worrying he'd offend the wrong sponsor with the standard baseball cap most drivers wear around the track.
"I just really liked them because it was different," he said.
Petty's matted hair had a few stray curls when he removed the hat and sunglasses during a chat in his motorhome. He did wear a baseball cap under his headset when he stood atop an RPM hauler and had a bird's-eye-view for last Sunday's race. Petty was the lone figure standing on any of the 43 haulers, keeping tabs on the race through a scoring monitor and a close eye on the cars when they whizzed past the start/finish line a few hundred feet away.
Petty wouldn't want to miss out on a resurgent season at Richard Petty Motorsports. RPM has driver Aric Almirola locked into the Chase for the Sprint Cup championship field because of his July win at Daytona. There's a chance RPM could have two drivers competing for the championship should Marcos Ambrose win a race, and he's a good bet at this week's stop at the road course in Watkins Glen.
Petty said the financial health and overall outlook at RPM is "as good as it's even been," though that could change a bit if Ambrose bolts the organization for a ride in Australia's V8 Supercar Series. Petty said the team was waiting to hear from Ambrose on what he'd like to do next season.
Petty isn't ready to wave goodbye to NASCAR, not by a long shot.
He's as much a fixture in the sport as Jimmie Johnson, Jeff Gordon and Dale Earnhardt Jr., who are still driving. Petty is NASCAR's walking Hall of Fame, synonymous with the sport, and along for the ride every mile along the way from its southern roots to its $8.2 billion TV deal.
"Every time I show up," Petty said, "I bring my history with me."

For immediate release: Monday, Oct. 22, 2012
New York State's Missing Adult Alert system marks one-year anniversary
System credited with helping law enforcement locate seven adults who went missing
New York State tomorrow will mark the one-year anniversary of its Missing Adult Alert system, which is activated when an individual 18 years old or older with dementia, autism or other cognitive disorder, brain injury or mental disability is reported missing and is at credible risk of harm.
Administered by the Missing Persons Clearinghouse at the state Division of Criminal Justice Services (DCJS), the alert program went live on Oct. 23, 2011. Since that time, DCJS has issued 21 alerts, and in seven instances, law enforcement officials have credited the alert system with helping them locate the adult that went missing in their communities.
New York State's Deputy Secretary for Public Safety Elizabeth Glazer said: "Time is of the essence when anyone goes missing, but it is particularly critical when individuals who are unable to care for themselves because of a cognitive impairment or brain disorder wander away from home. This system allows law enforcement to mobilize the public and other agencies to assist in the search, increasing the odds that these individuals will be quickly located and reunited with their families."
Added DCJS Executive Deputy Commissioner Michael C. Green: "DCJS is committed to providing local law enforcement agencies with tools and technology that allow them to better serve their communities. In addition to administering the alert system, DCJS staff trains police officers and sheriffs' deputies on the effective use of the Missing Adult Alert system and educates them about search and rescue tactics and resources that agencies can access in the event a vulnerable adult goes missing in their communities."
Missing Adult Alerts are similar to AMBER alerts, or the Missing Child/College Student Alert system, which also is administered by the Clearinghouse. The system works as follows:
After receiving a Missing Person report, a law enforcement agency must determine there is a credible risk of harm to a missing individual before contacting the Clearinghouse to request the alert. Once an alert is requested, information about the missing adult is distributed electronically throughout New York State within minutes to the following entities: police agencies, television and radio stations, newspapers, hospitals, New York State Thruway travel plazas and toll booths, airports, bus terminals, train stations and border crossings.
Variable highway signs are activated with Alert information for up to eight hours. Unlike an AMBER Alert, however, radio and television station managers decide if and when to broadcast Missing Adult Alert information. Information also is distributed via NY-ALERT; to register to receive alerts and help spread the word when a vulnerable adult goes missing, visit www.nyalert.org. More than 13,000 people have signed up to receive Missing Adult Alerts.
Alerts assisted the following agencies with locating a missing adult: New York State Police Troops F and G, the Endicott Police Department, the New York City Police Department, Cheektowaga Police Department and the Poughkeepsie City Police Department.
Adults with cognitive disorders, mental disabilities, or brain injuries can experience disorientation and confusion, which often leads to wandering. Lost adults are rarely aware of the danger they may be exposed to and are often unable to ask for help.
Greg Olsen, acting director of the New York State Office for the Aging said: "The number of older New Yorkers is increasing rapidly, especially among those aged 80 and older. The fastest growing segment of the population is those aged 85 and older. These individuals are also the most at risk for a cognitive impairment, including Alzheimer's disease and other dementias. Unfortunately, cognitive impairments can make individuals vulnerable, particularly to wandering. The Missing Adult Alert system provides a crucial safety net for those vulnerable older individuals who may go missing by coordinating a statewide search and ensuring that the vulnerable adult is found."
According to the Alzheimer's Association, approximately six in 10 patients with dementia will wander at least once and 50 percent are at risk of serious harm, or even death, if not located within 24 hours. In addition, the Interactive Autism Network reports that half of all children with autism will leave a safe environment.
Putnam County Sheriff Donald B. Smith, president of the New York State Sheriffs' Association, and a member of the New York State AMBER Alert Partners, said: "One year later, the Missing Adults Alert system has proved itself to be smart, effective legislation on the part of Governor Cuomo and the New York State Legislature. Extending an effective protocol, the AMBER Alert system, to a vulnerable population, missing adults with cognitive impairments, has made a significant contribution to public safety, allowing law enforcement to provide vulnerable adults the same kind of immediate response and public alert system that we provide to missing children. I also want to thank the New York State Broadcasters for their strong support of this program in helping us to make New York a better place to live, work and raise a family."
Added New Windsor Police Chief Michael Biasotti, president of the New York State Association of Chiefs of Police: "Previously, police often used local resources and press releases in the search for missing persons who did not meet the definition of a child, college student or endangered person. The missing vulnerable adult law provides for uniformity in reporting and disseminating information about all missing adults, allowing police to focus attention on other aspects of the search."
More than 800 officers from across the state attended trainings this spring to learn how to use the Missing Adult Alert system effectively and the Clearinghouse is currently sponsoring another training series focused on search and rescue tactics and resources available to law enforcement. More than 500 professionals have registered for a total of 10 trainings, which conclude in late November.
If a loved one with a cognitive disorder, brain injury or mental disability goes missing:
- Call 9-1-1or your local police agency to report that your loved one is a missing vulnerable adult. If you believe your loved one's life is in imminent danger, ask the police agency to request activation of a Missing Vulnerable Adult Alert and to enter him or her into the National Crime Information Center (NCIC) Missing Person File.
- Provide his/her name and description, including height, weight, hair and eye color, date of birth and unique identifiers, such as eye glasses and walks with a cane, for example.
- Describe what the missing person was wearing when last seen, and whether he or she may be driving a vehicle.
- Describe the vehicle they may be driving: make, model and license plate number.
- Provide law enforcement with information about special interests or common themes the missing person may have. For example, the missing person may be attempting to go to a former residence or place of employment.
- Search areas that the person may go. Alert neighbors to assist with the search.
DCJS is a multi-function criminal justice support agency with a variety of responsibilities, including collection and analysis of statewide crime data; maintenance of criminal history information and fingerprint files; administrative oversight of the state's DNA Databank, in partnership with the New York State Police; administration of federal and state criminal justice funds; support of criminal justice-related agencies across the state; and administration of the state's Sex Offender Registry and a toll-free telephone number (1-800-262-3257) that allows anyone to research the status of an offender.

So you'll be pleased to know that since my last post, my arm has now fully deflated and is still attached despite kitty's best efforts, in fact it's been a pretty incident free month thank Gawd!
Things are starting to get back to (a sort of) normality, I've still got hideous mountain of paperwork/legal stuff since Bri passed away but it's almost dealt with and thanks to the bucketing rain we've had for the past 3 weeks I've tucked myself away and managed to get a bit more stitching and painting in!
Unfortuantely the garden looks like a jungle and the front lawn is about 4ft high, altho it's hiding the rubbish so I'm calling it a "meadow" until I can bribe a visitng in-law to mow it!
So what's been going on? Well, I was contacted a wee while ago by Andrea Wilkinson of Graphic Design and Communications, Media and Design. As part of a 2012 summer residency at the Frans Masereel Centrum in Kasterlee, Belgium Andrea has set up a project looking at turning digital into analogue:
"Launched in October, 2011, for the next half year, KeepDelete will encourage people to turn text messages into artifact; turning digital messages that are on the verge of being forgotten, deleted, outdated or even lost into something tangible; an artifact. Collected together, these documents will combine to form a publication and/or exhibition.
In 2012, a book will be created highlighting the transformation of digital text-message into physical artefact. Designers are invited to design an artifact of a message thatis 'wanting to be kept', either from their own personal repository of messages or from their circle of friends and family. These artifacts (across various types of media: eg. prints on paper, fabric, hand-lettered typography…) will be collated together in book form and supplemented with written pieces which look critically at the ability for the graphic medium to archive the personal."
So I hit my mobile...now I'll be honest, I hate mobile phones. I havent a clue what my number is and I only ever use it as either an alarm clock and an "in case of emergencies" travelling companion. My chums will testify to the fact I'm useless with it as I rarely answer a call or text...mainly because it take me a good 10 minutes to work out what the noise is when it's ringing and by the time I've faffed about trying to find my glasses to answer/read it they've usually given up and rang me on a landline!
That said, I did find a text from my bezzie that wasnt offensive which simply said "LOL!" with a smiley face, so that was my starting point for this fella!
That said, I did find a text from my bezzie that wasnt offensive which simply said "LOL!" with a smiley face, so that was my starting point for this fella!
Hot pre-embroidery action...yes literaly a case of LMAO...as he has no bottom parts! ;)
I have hand embroidered the toadstools in a variety of threads, silks and cottons to give added texture.
Fun-gi's to be with!
Also features metallic threads in red, silver and gold which sparkle when the light hits them. His garden is stitched in shades of greens and blues with splashes of turquoise blue and lime
It remains to be see if he'll be accepted to the project as he's up against a shed load of super talented submissions, but either way I shan't be too vexed as I had real fun stitching the wee fella :)
Waiting in the wings (titter!) for the stitchy treatment is this fella, a sloshy stylee watercolour Magpie...apologies to all you superstitious folks out there!
Now the general chaos and stressiness has kind of subsided, himself as been sent to the kitchen to knock up a trifle and I'm hoping to spend an indulgent Bank Holiday catching up with everyone's blogs, so if there's a dollop of custard in your comments box it'll be me! :)
Stay groovy my bloggy chums, big Mimi Loves to y'all and thanks for droppin' by :)

Nice extract, takes me back. I have been anchored off a coast like that waiting for the mist to lift so that we could continue to our next port of call and cormorants not only dissapear into the mist but dive into the sea and never seem to surface. I can only assume they surface a long way away from us. Also seals pop up, give you the once over and then dive again. Watching them was worth the wait for the weather to change.
I bought the book because we went to Wigtownshire on our holidays. We were staying about four miles from Port William and visited the village a few times during the week. (Excellent sandwich shop on the Square called something like Tasty Bites.)
Cormorants were doing exactly what's described here. And the book was published in 1939!

Not because I am anything special, but because I have learned a few tricks along the way, that I would like to share with you. Start incorporating them into your plan today and notice the difference tomorrow.
1. Set a time limit on all your workouts. End the workout if you run over.
2. Exercise larger muscle groups before the smaller ones. I.e... Back, Legs and Chest before shoulders and arms.
3. Change your workout plan up every twelve to fourteen weeks.
4. Treat your time in the gym as if it is your most important time of the day.
5. Make the workouts at the beginning of the week harder than those toward the end of the week.
6. Take at least one day off a week from doing any form of exercising.
7. Change your cardiovascular equipment up each time you exercise.
8. Monitor your heart rate all the time.
9. Go over your workout in your head before you start.
10. Efficiency is more important than length. Have a number of reps in your head before each time you do a set.
These are just a few things I have learned over the years. Do not be afraid to try different things. Listen to your body and never be afraid to ask for help.

Alone in Australia's smallest town
Simon Remienko is sole resident of Australia's smallest town.
"I own the place - if you own something and it makes you happy, there is no reason to leave it," said Mr Remienko, 87.
"There is always something for me to do here. If I don't look after myself, nobody else will."
Mr Remienko owns the 112-year-old Betoota Hotel, the only building in town, which he managed for 44 years before shutting up shop in 1997.
Surrounded by bleak, tree-less plains, the hotel is the only structure on the 400-kilometre rough dirt road between Windorah and Birdsville in western Queensland. The closure of the hotel and its petrol bowser means many motorists have to carry extra fuel.
Mr Remienko still stocks a full bar, though bottles are coated with fine desert dust and he has not sold a drop for five years. "I'm too old now but I still have the liquor licence, just in case," he says. His "neighbours" worry about him. "You've got to be a bit concerned, him being out there all by himself," said Marilyn Simpson, proprietor of the Windorah Hotel, 220 kilometres east of Betoota.
Betoota is an officially designated town, the nation's smallest, complete with a town plan and a subdivision.
The Birdsville-based Diamantina Shire Council recently put some blocks up for sale in Betoota. To the surprise of everyone, six sold for between $200 and $500 each. "I don't think the buyers plan to move there anytime soon," said Mayor David Brook.
That is a relief to the reclusive Mr Remienko. His hotel is a fortress, its thick sandstone walls attached to a three-metre, locked wire enclosure. If he is not in the mood for visitors, which is almost always, he ignores the doorbell. Betoota's water supply is tenuous and power comes from a generator. Summer temperatures frequently soar into the 50s.
Mr Remienko cooks on a wood-fired stove. A few years back, his washing machine broke down. Transporting it hundreds of kilometres for repairs was too difficult. "I just hand-wash my clothes now," he says.
He drives to Birdsville for groceries once a month - almost a three-hour trip each way. Occasionally, for a change of scenery, he drives 1400 kilometres to Adelaide to visit friends - four days each way.
Mr Remienko was released recently from a five-month stint in the Toowoomba Hospital. "I was driving on the road, I had an accident, I hurt my leg," he says. He has never married, smoked or - hotel notwithstanding - drunk alcohol. His fiery temper is legendary. Police have been contacted after more than one encounter between outback travellers and a sometimes armed Mr Remienko.
He was 25 when he migrated to Australia from Poland and was sent to the dusty town of Boulia, north of Betoota, where he got a job as a grader driver.
He set up a contracting business, working long hours to save £3500 to buy the hotel in 1953. "There were no roads then, just little tracks," he says. "When it rained heavy, you didn't go anywhere."
Curious luminaries such as the aviator Dick Smith would drop before Betoota's airstrip was closed when the hotel shut.
"People came here to have weddings, big parties, all sorts of reasons," he says. "It's a good place."

So, what's a gardener to do when the rain is coming down nearly constantly on the weekend? Laugh about it of course and hope that the weather in a couple of weeks (my spring break) will be sunny and warm!
I'm not a fan of bumper stickers on cars. You express something which makes some people in traffic happy and the others angry, don't change anyone's mind about anything, and cause people to rear end you to read the fine print. The exception proves the rule and one that says, "If your thoughts can be expressed on a bumper, maybe you should think more." made me laugh out loud. I love to post pithy sayings around my house. Here are three spotted at Watson's Nursery that helped me forget all of the garden projects that the rain is keeping me from doing:
I'm not lactose intolerant, am able to consume gluten, and have never had problems with allergies until now. Beware, I hear this is on the rise!

It's free, and that's how it should be
I first raised the issue of internet censorship in Parliament in March 2011, and I am mystified by the Centre's approach towards the internet — it defies logic and is not consistent with the values of our republic and democracy.india Updated: May 18, 2012 00:17 IST
I first raised the issue of internet censorship in Parliament in March 2011, and I am mystified by the Centre's approach towards the internet — it defies logic and is not consistent with the values of our republic and democracy.
There are three realities about India that we must remember, and it is sometimes worth reminding the government about them. First, India is a vibrant democracy with a constitutionally guaranteed right to free speech and liberty. Second, despite our problems, India's democratic model is an aspirational one for many countries of the world; and third, the internet, apart from being an alternative media, is also a platform for innovation and vibrant entrepreneurship. We must keep all the three things in mind while examining the Centre's attempts to regulate the internet.
Across the world, governments fear the internet — because it represents unfettered views, and unlike the conventional media, which is vulnerable to advertising and other forms of coercion, the internet is seen as 'unmanageable'. And that pushes them to restrain this free and vibrant medium.
The Information Technology (Interme-diary Guidelines) Rules would pose a serious risk to our democracy and could be seen as legal intimidation of citizens and entrepreneurs by the government, established political and business interests and religious and cultural bigots. The Rules also violate the rights of freedom of speech and expression of the internet users, by providing for a system of censorship/self-censorship by private parties.
The Rules are riddled with weaknesses and ambiguities and are not good for a small internet consumers or entrepreneurs, but great for bureaucrats and large companies. For example, the Rules put discretion and power in the hands of individuals or large internet companies and they can be coerced. This is wrong. In a country where there is a due process of law and with a legislation like the IT Act, courts or tribunals should be deciding a case.
Many of the categories specified under the Rules are ambiguous. For example, the term 'grossly harmful' is not defined. Some of the categories of objectionable content may not meet the requirements of Article 19(2) and could infringe on the right to freedom of speech. The Rules are badly formulated and poorly drafted. Clearly, no stakeholders were consulted. The telecom minister has had over seven open houses — none of which discussed these Rules. There is no doubt that these Rules need to be changed. We need rules but they should be created after consulting the stakeholders. The government must engage and accept diverse views while making those guidelines, eliminate possibilities of misuse, either by the perpetrators, or by the government itself.
The government must annul these Rules and replace them with a set that we can be proud of and is consistent with the core values of our liberalism and democracy.
Another issue that's rearing its ugly head relates to India's position on internet governance at a global level. In October last year, the government moved a ridiculous proposal to shift the existing system by having 50 governments under the United Nations (UN) umbrella provide oversight to internet governance around the world. This is a dangerous view, probably propelled by those who have no idea whatsoever of how the internet works. The pretension that this is being done under the Tunis agenda is worrying. In fact, when this idea was first floated in 2005, Kofi Annan, the then Secretary General of the UN, was forced to distance himself from it.
At a time when the world is looking to India as the leading light of free speech, to make a proposal, which seeks government oversight over internet issues, takes our reputation back to the proverbial stone age of the internet.
The internet was not formed by the government and so it has no business policing it. To move from a multistakeholder-led governance system, which has broad representations from several countries, to a multilateral inter-governmental system, is regressive and can never make decisions which can match the speed of internet.
It is unclear who made this decision and what motivated it, but we should immediately abandon this proposal. We can't be seen as a country insecure of free speech.
