Human rights conditions deteriorated in Kuwait in 2012 during an ongoing political crisis, Human Rights Watch said today at a news conference for its World Report 2013. The security forces used what appeared to be excessive force to disperse stateless bidun residents and anti-government demonstrators on multiple occasions, and authorities briefly banned protests in October.
Government prosecutors charged at least 25 people, including online activists and former members of Parliament, with speech-related crimes such as "offending the emir" and "misusing electronic devices" for posting remarks on Twitter, or giving speeches during anti-government protests. The government should drop those charges, Human Rights Watch said.The government should also address the citizenship claims of bidun, and protect migrant workers by ratifying the Convention on Decent Work for Domestic Workers.
"Kuwait's political crisis had a negative impact on the country's human rights record as security forces cracked down on protests and the government grew intolerant of dissident speech,"said Nadim Houry, deputy Middle East director at Human Rights Watch. "The government should reverse this trend in 2013, by dropping all speech-related charges against online activists and former members of parliament, and finally addressing the bidun's outstanding claims."
In its 665-page report, Human Rights Watch assessed progress on human rights during the past year in more than 90 countries, including an analysis of the aftermath of the Arab uprisings. The willingness of new governments to respect rights will determine whether the Arab uprisings give birth to genuine democracy or simply spawn authoritarianism in new clothes, Human Rights Watch said.
In February, the opposition, led by Islamists, gained a majority following parliamentary elections. Following the parliament's close scrutiny of the government's performance, Emir Sheikh Sabah al-Ahmad al-Jaber al-Sabah suspended parliament in June. His decision was followed by a Constitutional Court ruling that dissolved the parliament. New Parliamentary elections were finally held on December 1. But opposition groups, consisting primarily of Islamists, liberals, and nationalists, boycotted the elections to protest a decision by the Emir to change the electoral law. The opposition groups say that the decision was in violation of the constitution, and that the electoral law should be amended only by an elected parliament.
The government used force, tear gas, and sound bombs to disperse at least four protests between October and December, and beat protesters while arresting them. The government justified the use of force against protesters on the grounds that they blocked traffic and threw stones at the police. A Human Rights Watch investigation found that some demonstrators tried to break iron barricades that security forces had installed around the demonstration site at one protest. However, in other cases, security forces used tear gas and sound bombs without warning to disperse the protests, and beat protesters while arresting them.
Throughout the year, authorities consistently prohibited bidun from organizing demonstrations, and the government introduced a plan that separated bidun into four categories based on factors such as whether a family participated in the 1965 census or served in the army or police. However, there was no progress in granting citizenship in 2012. On February 7, 2013, the parliament passed a legislation that would grant citizenship to 4,000 bidun in 2013. The legislation needs a second approval by the parliament and emir's approval.
"The bidun community has waited for many years hoping that the authorities will follow through with their countless promises to address their citizenship claims," Houry said. "The government should speed up the process of addressing the citizenship claims of bidun."
In June 2011, the government voted to adopt the International Labour Organization's Convention on Decent Work for Domestic Workers (Convention 189), which establishes global labor standards on domestic work. However, the government has not taken any steps to ratify the convention or improve the treatment of an estimated 660,000 migrant domestic workers.
In 2010, the government passed a new private sector labor that set working hours, leave, and bonuses for migrant workers. However, the law excluded domestic workers who work and live inside employers' homes in Kuwait. Many domestic workers complain of long working hours without rest; months or years of unpaid wages; and verbal, physical, and sexual abuse.
"Kuwait needs to follow through on the commitment it made in 2011 to protect domestic workers by ratifying the convention and reforming its laws in line with the international standards," Houry said.

Planned gifts provide creative and flexible strategies for your estate and charitable planning. Some planned gifts provide you with income. Many of them can reduce your taxes. The greatest benefit, however, lies in knowing you are supporting work at the Society of American Foresters that is important to you and helpful to others.
Whatever inspires you, whatever drives you you can make a difference by supporting the Society of American Foresters with a bequest directed at any purpose, national program, state society or division, local chapter, or fund. Whether it's helping tell the forestry story at the local or national level, providing support to science and education efforts, or helping to inform decision-makers at multiple levels, by including the SAF in your estate plans, you will help to promote new ideas and create the next generation of leaders, thinkers and doers, benefiting our way of life here in the America's and beyond.
We'd be happy to discuss your options with you or your adviser. For more information or to schedule a time to meet, please contact us.
You can include a gift to the SAF in your will or trust.
Official bequest language for the SAF
"I give to the COUNCIL OF THE Society of American Foresters, Bethesda, Maryland (the "SAF") _______________ Dollars ($____________)
[alternate 1:] _____________ percent (______%) of the residue of my estate.
[alternate 2:] all of the residue of my estate.
[alternate 3:] specific asset for (purpose) by (SAF State Society/Chapter/SAF Fund/Other).
If you are considering a bequest and want help with specific language, a member of the SAF staff will be happy to work with you or your adviser to ensure your gift does exactly what you intend.
If you've already made a provision in your will or trust or have named the SAF as a beneficiary of your retirement plan, IRA or life insurance policy, we invite you to contact us so we can welcome you as a member of the Founders' Circle. If you would prefer to remain anonymous your gift will be kept confidential.
With planning you can receive an immediate income tax deduction, provide yourself or someone else with an annual income and support the Society of American Foresters in a meaningful way.
Charitable Gift Annuity
In exchange for a gift of cash, stocks or bonds, the SAF will pay you or a loved one a fixed income for life. The payments are based on the amount of the gift, whether one or two individuals will receive payments and those individuals' ages when the annuity is created.
Charitable Remainder Trust
You and the SAF enter into a trust agreement. You contribute assets to the trust for a purpose you designate, the SAF manages the trust's assets for your benefit and you receive income from the trust each year for life or a term of years. When the trust ends, the remaining trust assets benefit the purpose you have chosen.
Pooled Income Fund
Your gift to the SAF's pooled income fund is combined with the contributions of others. You receive annual payments based on the fund's performance and your share of the pool. At your death the SAF withdraws your share of the fund's assets to support your chosen purpose.
There are many gifts in addition to cash that the SAF can put to work today. These offer tax benefits (such as an income tax deduction) and the opportunity to support current programs, establish or add to an endowment or provide funding for capital improvements.
Outright gifts
You can make an outright gift of real estate, publicly traded securities, closely held stock, a paid up life insurance policy and other property of value.
Tangible personal property
The SAF encourages gifts of tangible personal property, such as artwork, books, manuscripts, coin and stamp collections, boats and airplanes.
Bargain Sale
If you sell an asset such as real estate to the SAF for less than its current fair market value, you will make a "bargain sale" gift. The difference between the fair market value and the sale price constitutes a charitable gift.
A lead trust makes payments to the SAF for a designated period of time to support the purpose you choose. When the trust ends, the remaining assets are paid to you or other beneficiaries. A lead trust helps the SAF now and can reduce the tax cost of transferring valuable assets to family members.
These deferred gifts ensure that future generations will benefit from your generosity and legacy.
Retained Life Estates
You can contribute your residence, vacation home or farm now, while retaining the right to use and occupy the property for life. At your death the SAF will own the property in its entirety.
Life Insurance or Retirement Assets
You can name the SAF as the beneficiary of a life insurance policy or your retirement account or IRA and direct your future gift to SAF at the national or local level.
Real estate
Do you own property that is fully paid off and has appreciated in value? You can deduct the fair market value of the property, avoid all capital gains taxes and remove the asset from your taxable estate. You can also give a personal residence (including a vacation home) or a farm to the SAF and live there just as you do now. Also see our Retained Life Estates brochure.
Life insurance
You can donate a life insurance policy or simply name the SAF as a beneficiary. Such a gift may help you make a larger gift than you otherwise could. Learn more about gifts of life insurance.
Retirement plan assets
Coordinating retirement planning and charitable giving can be especially beneficial if you've accumulated substantial retirement assets and want to reduce income and estate taxes. See our Gifts of Retirement Plan Assets brochure.
Securities, if they have appreciated, are excellent assets for charitable gifts. These include shares of stocks, bonds or mutual fund units.
Gifts of cash are perhaps the easiest to make. Charitable Gift Annuities and Charitable Remainder Trusts may be funded with cash.
If you wish to make a one-time cash gift, you can mail a check to:
The Society of American Foresters
5400 Grosvenor Lane
Bethesda, Maryland 20814-2198
Please make your check payable to the Society of American Foresters and indicate which fund or program you wish to support. Or you can make a gift online.
SAF Staff members work closely with you and your advisers to ensure your gift will support your educational purpose. Please feel free to call, e-mail or write. We will be in touch soon.

Games for Change has announced that the game concept Safe Sex with Friends is the winner of the 2013 SEXETC.ORG Game Design Competition. The three finalists were Safe Sex with Friends, SexEd Super Task Force, and Check/Mate. After hearing presentations from all three finalists (during the 10th Annual Games for Change Festival) and thoughtful deliberation by jurors (Matt Parker, Lana Dakan, Lucinda Holt, and Naomi Clark,) Safe Sex with Friends was selected as the winning game.
Safe Sex with Friends is a social game (web, mobile) that uses simple game mechanics to teach teens and young adults the basics of safe sex. The game uses mechanics borrowed from word games like Scrabble and Words With Friends to teach the basics of when to use "barrier protection" for safer sex. Designers Kaho Abe (NYU-Poly), Ramsey Nasser (Eyebeam), and Sarah Schoemann (CUNY Hunter) have won $35,000 to develop their game concept into a prototype.
"We are really excited, and so grateful for this," Kaho and Ramsey said after they were announced as the winning game designers. "We really wish that Sarah were here to accept this honor on stage with us."
The process, including the public contest and the cash prize, were funded by the David & Lucile Packard Foundation.

TOH's Sophia Savage sat down with The Social Network's scene stealer Armie Hammer on Tuesday afternoon:
We started our hour together talking about our Vespas, and finished it with a hug. In between, Armie Hammer and I got "actor nerdy" talking his portrayal of the Winklevi (both Winklevoss twins, whom he sees as "a manifestation of the duality that we all experience within us"), rowing (I compare The Social Network to a well-formed 8, in crew-speak, Fincher being the coxswain, and so on), working with an Aaron Sorkin script, being directed by "perfectionist" and "savant" David Fincher, and how to follow up such a breakout success. See our four-part conversation below.
He's been discussing his next move (nothing he's willing to report yet), but revealed that he has been anxiously waiting for five days to hear about one project (perhaps the news that broke today about him joining Clint Eastwood's Hoover biopic with Leonardo DiCaprio). Until more projects materialize, he is working on getting indie film Serpent Girl off the ground with producer-writer-director Matthew Carnahan (The Kingdom). Hammer describes it as "The Hangover meets Hunter S. Thompson."
The most impressive thing about David Fincher? There are many, he says, including "a level of perfectionism that I've never seen before, but he also has the determination and the focus to execute it, and he will not let anything get in the way of it."

Level 42 are an English pop rock and jazz-funk band who had a number of worldwide and UK hits during the 1980s and 1990s. The band gained fame for their high-calibre musicianship—in particular that of Mark King, whose percussive slap-bass guitar technique provided the driving groove of many of the band's hits. The band are also known for the combination of King's lead vocals and keyboard player Mike Lindup's falsetto backing vocals. Having been a very successful live and studio band in the 1980s, Level 42's commercial profile diminished during the early 1990s following a series of personnel changes and musical shifts. After disbanding in 1994, the band reformed in 2001. Their most successful single was "Lessons in Love", which reached number three on the UK Singles Chart, and number 12 on the US Billboard Hot 100 chart, upon its release in 1986.

Address: 2 Country Club Road
Newport, AR 72112-4002
Practice: Dentists
One of the more unpleasant things is having to choose a dentist. Despite the fact that dental work is no fun, picking the right dentist can make it better. When confronted with choosing a dentist, there are many possibilities. Within the following sentences we'll take a look at how to choose the right dentist.
The initial thing you should do is locate a dentist that is experienced. There are lots of fly by night dental companies, along with other dentists who are just out of school. While you will find some good young dentists, it is a lot better to locate a dentist who has at least five years of professional experience. If you are getting major dental work done like a crown, you definitely want someone with working experience.
Ask your friends and family for any advice they may have. Usually when people find a good dentist or other service professional, they are going to become repeat customers. You can also research potential dentists to get a good idea of their practice. This is effective specifically if you cannot get any recommendations. If you find one which provides extensive reviews that are positive, they might be worth looking at.
Some things to consider are dentists in Newport who advertise very low prices. Most of the time these dentists are interested more in quantity versus quality. The chances are you most likely won't get the customized attention you'll need at places such as this. Should they use routine sedation, you should keep clear of them. For young children this is ok, but for the majority of grown ups being sedated is not needed for dental work.
Make sure you either visit or call the specific office to learn more about their services. If you ask a lot of questions and keep to the hints above, you should have few problems when the time comes to choose a dentist in zip code 72112.

Rare Book Monthly
Articles - August - 2010 Issue
Great Scott! Eccentric Shakespearean Thief Convicted.
If the Cuban dancer was the cause of Scott's decision to sell the stolen Shakespeare, she would also become his attempted cover. Scott proclaimed that the copy had come from her family, or that of a friend. It had been in Cuba for a century or more, and since the Castros would not let her take it out of the country for authentication, he volunteered to perform the task. And that is why, he explained, he showed up at the Folger with this First Folio in hand.
Through many hearings, Scott questioned the judgment of the experts who identified this copy as being the Durham one. However, by trial time, the identification was virtually indisputable, so Scott, or his attorney, took a different tack. In this explanation, his copy was the stolen Durham, but Scott was a sucker being played by the Cubans to pawn off their stolen book. How the Cubans managed to get to a library thousands of miles away, though just a stone's throw from Scott's house, was a mystery unexplained.
Scott's trial began in June, and the prosecution's announcement that it would take three weeks was not a good omen for Scott. It takes a lot of evidence to fill three weeks. All of the expected evidence came out, along with some unexpected, and devastating information about Scott. Most notably, the prosecution revealed that Scott had been convicted a dozen times on various petty thefts, essentially shoplifting, going back to the early 1990s. He had even been convicted twice while awaiting trial on the Shakespeare charges, once for stealing a couple of books, no less, from a bookstore (they were worth about $100). Indeed, his history seems to be one of a petty thief, and not terribly good at it. The heist of the Shakespeare appears out of character for Scott, though oddly enough, he was acquitted of that charge. Technically, Scott is not a book thief. He was convicted on two other counts: handling stolen goods and removing stolen property from the country.
As to how Scott managed to live his high lifestyle on a carer's allowance and petty theft, it appears that he was good at racking up debt. He found ways to run up huge amounts of credit card and other debt. However, one can only pull this off for so long, and his attempt to maintain the playboy façade forced him into making the risky move that brought him down.
At trial, Scott's attorney attempted to paint him as "an old fool." He was simply a "mummy's boy" out of his depth, taken advantage of by a sophisticated Cuban lady. Undoubtedly he was, but not in the way his attorney tried to argue. Reportedly, Scott didn't much appreciate this line of defense, but few alternatives presented themselves. Finally, Scott pulled one last dramatic move, a head scratcher that must have left his poor attorney dazed. Late in the trial, Scott walked into the local police station and presented them with two stolen works of art and a stolen dictionary. What he hoped to achieve, other than one last splash in the newspapers, is hard to fathom. He indicated to a reporter that he was employing an element of surprise, but if he had stood up in court and proclaimed his guilt, this too would have been surprising, though hardly helpful. Perhaps Scott was already thinking beyond the verdict and hoping to reduce his sentence.
Though Scott had long had explanations for the press, when it came time to testify in court, he declined. There was nothing for him to say, or at least nothing the prosecution wouldn't tear to shreds. In America, a defendant can decline to testify at his trial, and jurors are not allowed to draw any inferences. Not so in the U.K. The prosecutor was allowed to jump on this point, asking the jury why would someone supposedly so misunderstood, fail to explain himself to the jury? Undoubtedly, the jury wondered too. His attorney was reduced to arguing that yes, Scott was a crook, but there was a possibility that he wasn't the crook in this case, so he should be acquitted. That's a weak argument and the jury wasn't buying. Conviction came swiftly, and the trial judge announced that Scott could expect a "substantial custodial sentence."
Scott's attorney had most things about his client right, except the one about his innocence. However, he missed on one other point. He described Scott as a "Walter Mitty," James Thurber's classic character who imagines he is all types of superheroes from the midst of his humdrum existence. Scott was no Walter Mitty. He didn't imagine the good life. He actually lived it for many years, despite a lack of money or notable skills at stealing. He had the fast car, fine wines, expensive clothes, international travel, and beautiful female companions. But for his dishonesty, his life would have always been that of a poor caregiver, living a lonely life in a small house with his aged mother. One can only wonder whether, as he spends his days in jail, he will regret his actions, or believe they were worth the cost.

NEW HAVEN, Conn. Police in Connecticut released thousands of pages of documents Friday from the investigation into last year's school massacre in Newtown, providing the most detailed picture yet of the rampage and the 20-year-old gunman's chilling fascination with guns and violence.
The paperwork, photos and videos were heavily blacked out to protect the names of children and to withhold some of the more grisly details of the crime.
Photographs of the home gunman Adam Lanza shared with his mother show numerous rounds of ammunition, gun magazines, shot-up paper targets, gun cases, shooting earplugs and a gun safe with a rifle in it.
The documents' release marks the end of the investigation into the Dec. 14, 2012, massacre at Sandy Hook Elementary School that left 20 first-graders and six educators dead.
The documents also fill in more details about how the shooting unfolded, teachers protected their students and the school janitor confronted the shooter.
Teachers heard janitor Rick Thorn try to get Lanza to leave the school. One teacher, who was hiding in a closet in the math lab, heard Thorn yell, "Put the gun down!" An aide said she heard gunfire and Thorn told her to close her door.
The paperwork "has been redacted according to law," and it includes text, photos, videos and recordings of 911 calls received by state police.
In a letter accompanying the report, Reuben F. Bradford, commissioner of the state Department of Emergency Services and Public Protection, wrote that much of the identifying information involving children and many witnesses were withheld, as were "all visual images depicting the deceased."
"Balancing the often-competing interests of government transparency and individual privacy has been difficult," Bradford wrote. "I believe that the redacted report that is being released includes as much detail as possible while protecting confidential information."
Prosecutors issued a summary of the investigation last month that portrayed Lanza as obsessed with mass murders, but the report concluded that Lanza's motives for the massacre might never be known.
Lanza "was undoubtedly afflicted with mental health problems; yet despite a fascination with mass shootings and firearms, he displayed no aggressive or threatening tendencies," it said.
The summary report referred to items found on a computer at Lanza's house that included writings detailing relationships, personal beliefs, a daily schedule, desires, goals and other topics.
Lanza gunned down 20 first-graders and six educators with a semi-automatic rifle at Sandy Hook Elementary School on Dec. 14, 2012, after killing his mother inside their home. He committed suicide with a handgun as police arrived at the school.
To try to figure out the motive, investigators said, they interviewed members of Lanza's family, teachers and others. They said they also tried within the limits of privacy laws to gather information on his medical treatment.
Lanza "was undoubtedly afflicted with mental health problems; yet despite a fascination with mass shootings and firearms, he displayed no aggressive or threatening tendencies," it said.
In fifth grade, Lanza wrote "The Big Book of Granny," in which the main character has a gun in her cane and shoots people, and another character talks of liking to hurt people, especially children. The book was among items seized from Lanza's home, but there was no indication he ever handed in the book at school.
Lanza became obsessed with the 1999 bloodbath at Columbine High in Colorado and other mass killings, the report said. He also kept a spreadsheet ranking mass murders.
The report also said that in 2005, Lanza was diagnosed with Asperger's disorder – an autism-like condition that is not associated with violence – and that he lacked empathy for others and behaved strangely. Nobody was allowed into his room, not even to clean, according to the report. It said Lanza also disliked birthdays, Christmas and holidays and did not like to have his hair cut.
He also wouldn't touch doorknobs, his food had to be arranged on the plate in a certain way, and he changed clothes often during the day. He was a loner at school and was repelled by crowds and loud noises.

ATHENS, Ga. -- Fifth-ranked Georgia held a two-hour practice Tuesday as the team continued preparations for its Capital One Bowl game against No. 21 Nebraska.
The Bulldogs were greeted with clear, blue skies Tuesday and temperatures in the mid-50s, quite a change from the rainy conditions on Monday that forced the team indoors to the Nalley Multipurpose Room.
"We had a good practice today on the FieldTurf; the grass fields still were a little soggy from the rain," said Georgia coach Mark Richt. "We had a high energy level today and that's because we haven't had a real practice in two days so there's no excuse not have a good one."
Richt was asked about how he expects the seniors, especially the ones that are projected to be playing in the NFL, will perform in the upcoming bowl game.
"We'll have to play the game before you can judge their effort, but they have been practicing well, and I know they want to be proud of their senior season," said Richt. "They are working hard to get ready for their last game."
Recently, there has been talk of sophomore Malcolm Mitchell's role next season after he began this year as a starting defensive back before returning to split end. Currently, Mitchell has a team-best 40 catches for 572 yards and four touchdowns.
"I doubt he'll play any more cornerback, I think he needs to play one position," said Richt. "At first, he wanted to do it (play defense) and then we needed him to do it. If he wants to be the best he can be, he needs to stick with one and that's receiver."
Three of Georgia's four starters in the secondary are seniors with sophomore Damian Swann the exception. Richt said he's not sure what the Bulldog secondary will look like next season except for Swann who has proven himself.
"Just because your next in line, don't think it's yours because you have to earn it," said Richt on the starting jobs in the secondary. "I don't think the guys we have behind our starters now are mature enough. They are going to be competing with guys that aren't even here yet. Every year we want guys to come in and compete. Swann is a proven player but the rest haven't yet."
Georgia will have three more practices in Athens before taking four days off for the holidays. Then, the team will reconvene in Orlando on Dec. 26 to resume workouts.
Kickoff for the Capital One Bowl on New Year's Day in Orlando will be at 1:08 p.m. ET, and ABC will televise it.

Employer cost-shifting, greater use of virtual care, and more savvy consumers being guided toward cost-effective care will put downward pressure on health spending. Although the ACA has not greatly influenced health spending, its impending "Cadillac tax" on high-cost plans has businesses scaling back their plans and shifting more of the cost onto employees. Remote monitoring is saving billions of dollars across the healthcare system and the array of people to guide consumers through complicated healthcare choices is growing.
Other trends tug from the opposite direction. More drugs in the FDA pipeline with high costs are following the Hepatitis C specialty drugs. Healthcare companies are also being hit with "supersized" cyber security investments to protect individual health data against breaches.

Former FSU and Leon high school quarterback Wyatt Sexton has another run-in with the law. This one is just as bizarre as the one from six years ago in Leon County.
Tallahassee Police Arrested the 26-year-old Friday, charging him in a hit and run accident. This morning the details of the accident were released.
According to the police report, former Florida State quarterback Wyatt Sexton rear- ended a vehicle, and took off. He was arrested Friday and released the same day.
As the victim, Colin Creasy, went to write Sexton's license plate number down, the former Leon quarterback drove off but not before the victim was able to hop in the bed of Sexton's truck. The police report says the victim claims Sexton was driving recklessly in an attempt to throw him out of the car.
Creasy said when the car stopped Sexton began yelling about his mental health and how he going to get locked away for 45 years. Authorities say Sexton and the victim ended up at 210 Satsuma Street where the victim called the cops.
The Police Report shows Sexton saying that it was a big misunderstanding and he just went home for a few beers.
For those who know Sexton, and played football with him, they say no matter what his troubles, they will stand behind their friend and help out if they can.
"I think any guy that's played with Wyatt, any person associated with Florida State University or Florida State Athletics is always going to be there for anybody who is a part of our family, " said David Castillo, a former teammate of Sexton.
The former FSU quarterback was arrested back in 2005 after a run-in with police who say they found him lying in the street and proclaiming himself as God, an incident later linked to Lyme Disease.

We will have more details of the former FSU quarterback's arrest on Eyewitness News tonight.
[UPDATE] 3-15 8:15am --
TPD releases probable cause:
On 3/11/2011 at 9:45 PM I was dispatched to the area of W Gaines St and Railroad Ave in reference to a hit and run that just occurred. The complainant, Laurie Creasy, was advising that the crash involved a blue Honda and green pick-up truck and that her boyfriend, victim Colin Creasy, jumped into the back of the suspect vehicle, which was the green pick-up.
Officer McInnis 775 arrived first and made contact with the complainant. The complainant advised that the green pick-up was an older model Chevrolet pick-up and that the suspect was a white male wearing a brown shirt and blue shorts. Shortly after I arrived, dispatch advised that the victim was at 210 Satsuma Street and that the driver of the suspect vehicle was Wyatt Sexton, the arrestee. I proceeded to go that address and make contact with the victim.
I arrived at 210 Satsuma St and observed the victim and the suspect vehicle, Fl tag 096YBM. The vehicle is registered to the arrestee. I spoke with the victim who provided the following account: He was stopped at the traffic light at Railroad Ave and W Gaines St. He was in the northbound left turn lane waiting to turn left onto W Gaines St. Suddenly he was rear-ended by the suspect vehicle. He and the arrestee got out of their vehicles and assessed the damages. The arrestee insisted that there was no damage and that calling the police was not necessary, and that they could drive out of the road and down to the Warehouse to exchange information. After he told the arrestee that he wanted to call the police, the arrestee ran back to his truck and attempted to drive off. The victim ran after the arrestee and then went to the back of the truck to get the tag number. The arrestee continued to drive off so the victim jumped into the back of the truck.
The arrestee saw the victim in the back of the truck and began to drive recklessly in an attempt to throw the victim out of the truck. The victim continued to yell for help and kept waving at passing cars. When they arrived at S Monroe St and W Gaines St, the arrestee yelled at his passenger to get out. The arrestee continued to drive until he arrived at his house, 306 E Call St. The arrestee got out of his truck and began yelling at the victim about his mental health and about how he was going to get locked away for 45 years. The arrestee then handed the victim his driver's license. The victim then asked if they were at the arrestee's address but he did not respond. The victim was frightened so he began to walk to a house with a light on. The arrestee chased after him and tackled him. He did say that the arrestee was trying to get his license back. The arrestee pushed the victim down and he curled into a ball. Once the arrestee got his license back he got back into his truck and tried to run away. The victim got back into the back of the truck. The arrestee drove a short distance around the corner, 210 Satsuma St, and got out of his vehicle. The victim asked the arrestee if this was his address. The arrestee responded with a 'Nope' and ran off. This is when he ran into 210 Satsuma St and called the police.
While I was talking the victim and began gathering information about the arrestee, the arrestee returned to 210 Satsuma St. He started to say that it was a big misunderstanding and that he just went home to grab a couple beers. He said that he just wanted to give me his information and settle the whole thing. I asked him to tell me what happened. He gave me a very similar account to the victim's. He said that he did 'bump' into the victim's car. He got out of his truck and tried to avoid calling the police and just exchange information. He said that he wanted to get out of the road and that is why he offered to go to the Warehouse. The Warehouse is a small pool hall that is just down the road o W Gaines St. He said the victim didn't want to move the vehicles and wanted to call the police. He said that he left because he didn't think there was any damage and he didn't want to wait forever for the police while being parked in the middle of the road.
He said that when he drove off he saw the victim jump in the vehicle but he did not drive recklessly. He told me that he drove very carefully to his house and that when he arrived to his house he handed the victim his driver's license. The victim then took off with his license and he thought he was trying to steal it. He ran after the victim and tackled him to get his license back. Once he got his license he took off to his house because he was afraid the victim would hurt him.
The arrestee knew he was involved in a traffic accident where he was the driver of a vehicle involved. He is required to stay on scene and provide his personal identification and insurance information to the driver of the other vehicle. He willfully left the scene without providing that information and therefore fulfilling the requirements of F.S. 316.061. Therefore he is charged with leaving the scene of a crash involving property damage to an attended vehicle. He was transported to the Leon County Jail.

29 November 2012 - Following the heavy rainfall and flooding during the last two weeks, the UK's weather is now much drier but also much colder.
Northerly winds are bringing the drier conditions to the UK although showers are expected to affect eastern coasts, especially in northeast England. Cold temperatures will remain throughout the week, and overnight lows will dip below freezing for many giving frost and fog. In areas that have been particularly wet we may also see icy stretches developing on untreated surfaces.
Eddy Carroll, Met Office Chief Forecaster, said: "The UK will see some respite from the recent rain but showers will affect north-eastern parts of the England for the next few days. People should be aware of the increasing risk of overnight frost, ice and freezing fog patches as the week wears on.
"As it becomes colder we will also see showers turn increasingly wintry across parts of Scotland and northern England."
In light of the change in weather, the Met Office has issued a Level 2 Cold Weather Alert. These alerts give advanced warning of adverse weather conditions, enabling you to take extra precautions to keep safe and well. Further information can be found on the Met Office health web pages.
Professor Virginia Murray, head of extreme events at the Health Protection Agency (HPA), said: "Severe cold can increase the risk of heart attacks, respiratory illnesses and injuries caused by slips, trips and falls. Those particularly at risk include the very old, very young and those with pre-existing medical conditions. The HPA has worked closely with the Department of Health and Met Office to develop a Cold Weather Plan which provides information and advice on what preparations both individuals and organisations can make to reduce health risks over winter."
Advice on simple steps you can take to stay warm and well can be found on our Get ready for winter web pages.

Voting was halted in northern Gaza and Gaza City, when gunmen angered by allegations of gerrymandering took over polling stations, firing in the air, setting ballot boxes on fire, and ripping lists of candidates
Ali Waked
Latest Update: 11.28.05, 20:58 / Israel News
Ali Waked
The troubled elections within the Fatah movement in Gaza have been suspended due to a spat of violent incidents.
Earlier, Fatah primaries for party leadership are underway in the Gaza Strip, following a weekend of first round votes in the West Bank, marked by an overwhelming victory in Ramallah for jailed Tanzim leader Marwan Barghouti.
Ballot boxes opened across the tiny coastal strip early Monday where havoc pervaded many polling stations, preventing some of the 200,000 registered Fatah members from casting their votes.
In the northern part of the Strip
and in Gaza City, voting was halted when gunmen angered by allegations of gerrymandering took over polling stations, firing in the air, setting ballot boxes on fire, and ripping lists of candidates.
Despite the disruptions, election officials remain hopeful that the primaries will go on as scheduled and the results will be announced as planned.
Uncertainty in the West Bank
Minister for Civilian Affairs Mohammad Dahlan is Fatah's chief candidate in the Gaza Strip, where he is popular among Fatah activists and members of the Palestinian Authority security services and their families.
Dahlan's popularity was boosted over the
weekend with the sealing of an agreement with Israel over the opening of the Rafah border crossing with Egypt.
The opening of the crossing makes life easier for thousand of Gazans who seek frequent entry to Egypt to visit relatives, seek employment, medical treatment, and to shop.

Building my brain furniture through the classics
Education | Chelsea Boes
An old roommate told me that if one walks late into a conversation, one should listen for 15 minutes before speaking. The principle serves as a good metaphor for education, much as I hate to admit it. Because getting educated means preparing to join a very old, very big conversation. It takes patience.
I met this peculiar thing called "classical education" my senior year of public high school, just about the time I was teaching myself to paint and to love classic rock 'n' roll. Something about the term "classic" rings trustworthy.
The summer after high school graduation, while I formed endless crab cakes at a local restaurant for rich people, I envisioned the Greeks with their flowing beards and wax tablets. Aristotle, Plato, Socrates. Billy Joel played over the kitchen radio while I chopped parsley, and I fell in love with his piano. The classic guys. I could stand to know them a little better. My ambition had three strands: Listen to rock 'n' roll for the sake of your senses and soul. It will make you a better writer. Teach yourself to paint for the sake of learning to look at things closely. It will make you a better writer. Get classically educated for the sake of your cerebrum. It will make you a better writer.
More rumors of classical education wafted to me through the internet because I had started peeking into a classical college. Bent strongly toward getting the best education I could, in the way I chose, I picked up a paintbrush in my right hand while I blasted the Beatles. I didn't want painting lessons. Not even an instruction book. I knew in my deep heart that an instructor or book would make me paint a still life of chunk of fruit, and I didn't have that kind of time. I didn't want to start at the beginning. I wanted to paint the human face immediately.
I didn't know that my haste and independence would in some ways cause me to struggle against the classical education I was on the verge of pursuing. I shelled out $700 of my restaurant money for my very own set of Britannica Great Books of the Western World,and devoted a year to reading the Western epics. I waded through the underworld with Homer and Virgil, and walked with Eve and Adam through Milton's Paradise Lost. Part of me wanted to get right to writing. But I had to read first. I had to shut up for 15 minutes and figure out what my predecessors in the great conversation of literature had already said. I needed to take time to fill my heart with the stories we already have. I needed time to allow the best thinkers and storytellers to build my brain furniture. I needed a classical education.
Be quick to listen, slow to speak. The lesson came hard. I stayed up all night with books. Later, I survived four semesters of Latin. I had to undergo the rigor of logic class before being allowed to taste Quintilian in rhetoric. Soon I came to realize that the Great Conversation was worth listening to it for its own sake, and not just to find out where I could fit a word in edgewise. I'm about to graduate. Looking back over my time at college—which has been full of paintbrushes, Billy Joel, and Socrates—I find myself a better writer. What's more: I'm safer from my self-centrism. More and more, I love the stories that came before I showed up, rather than the sound of my own voice.

This is a newbie question, I know. Can you guys help?
I'm talking about big files, of course, above 100MB. I'm imagining some kind of loop, but I don't know what to use. Chunked stream?
One thins is for certain: I don't want something like this (pseudocode):
File file = new File(existing_file_path);
byte[] theWholeFile = new byte[file.length()]; //this allocates the whole thing into memory
File out = new File(new_file_path);
To be more specific, I have to re-write a applet that downloads a base64 encoded file and decodes it to the "normal" file. Because it's made with byte arrays, it holds twice the file size in memory: one base64 encoded and the other one decoded. My question is not about base64. It's about saving memory.
Can you point me in the right direction? Thanks!

Brad Ausmus
Inducted March 28, 2004
Sport: Baseball
Team: Houston AstrosPosition: Catcher
The starting catcher for the Houston Astros, Ausmus is a two-time National League Gold Glove winning catcher, a Darthmouth graduate, and a 1999 All-Star. In mid-February 2003, Ausmus and the Astros signed a mutual option that will keep him with the team through this season. Houston GM Gerry Hunsicker said, Its really important that we sign and keep Brad Ausmus. Hes a very important part of our team, especially in developing our young pitching. We need him.
In 2003, Brad played well for the Astros as he appeared in 143 games; he had an almost flawless though typical for him .997 fielding percentage, having made only three errors.
Brad seems to be the object of a strange mutual regard between Detroit and Houston. He was first traded from Detroit to Houston, then back to Detroit, then back to Houston. A superior defensive backstop, Ausmus not only calls an outstanding game, he is also a fine all-around athlete. He has reached double digits in steals five times during his career.
Ausmus was originally selected by the New York Yankees in the 47th round of the 1987 draft. When Brad initially refused to sign, the Yanks allowed him to attend classes at Dartmouth while playing in the minors. In 1992, he moved to the Colorado Rockies organization in the expansion draft, and finally broke into the majors the following year with the San Diego Padres.
Pressed into regular duty in his rookie season, Ausmus was the Padres started for three seasons. In the middle of the 1996 season, Brad was traded to the Detroit Tigers. He then became a part of a ten-player trade after the 1996 season between the Tigers and the Astros.
Despite his good play, Ausmus was traded back to the Tigers before the 1999 season. During 1999, Brad committed only two errors in 124 games, and led the league with a .097 fielding percentage. Ausmus was chosen as the Tigers lone representative at the All-Star game.
In 2000, Brad appeared in 150 games, started 140, which was the most ever by a Detroit catcher. That year, he threw out 30 of 74 base runners attempting to steal (43.2%), leading the Al in that category. The Astros regretted having ever traded him (their catcher had thrown out only 22% of base stealers in 2000) and tried to pry him back from the Tigers. On December 12, 2000, Ausmus was traded from Detroit back to Houston. Its no coincidence that Houstons stretch of four postseason appearances in five years, began during Brads first tour of duty with the club, and resumed upon his return.
Ausmus, who shuts down an opponents running game, had the second best caught-stealing percentage (40%) in the majors in 2001. His worth is more accurately reflected by his celebrated leadership and defense; when he plays the team tends to win. Ausmus played in 130 games in 02 and had a .997 fielding percentage he committed only three errors in 1,010 total chances. The Astros finished with a record of 84-78 and in second place in the NE Central.
A native of Cheshire, CT, Brad was the area high school player of the year in his senor season and was a teammate of NHL defenseman Brian Leetch on the 84 baseball team that won the CT High School Championship.

I frorgot it was a one way and cut across a lane of traffic to make a left turn. Now my driver's side has a big dent in it and the other vehicle has some front end damage. Luckily no one was seriously injured, and both of us were able to drive away. Watch out on the roads tonight, anbd have a happy new year.

Each week, I'll write about the sport I love, college basketball:
• Best wishes for a speedy recovery to North Carolina coach Roy Williams. He recently underwent surgery to remove a tumor from his right kidney. Doctors discovered the presence of the tumor during a physical earlier this month. Williams should be able to coach when the Tar Heels begin practice. Roy has been an important member in the fight against cancer; I remember when we honored him and John Calipari at our Dickie V gala to raise funds for research.
• Rice suffered a major blow when All-Conference USA forward Arsalan Kazemi announced plans to transfer to Oregon. He averaged a double-double last season (more than 12 points and 10 rebounds per game) for Ben Braun's squad. He totaled 45 double-doubles in his three seasons as a starter there. The Owls have lost a number of players via the transfer route. Center Omar Oraby, who set a school record for blocks in one season (USC), point guard Dylan Ennis, who shattered the Owls mark for assists by a freshman (Villanova), forward Jarelle Reischel (Rhode Island), forward David Chadwick (Valparaiso) and forward Ahmad Ibrahim (went overseas for a professional contract) have opted to leave the team. Rice went 19-16 last season, its most wins since 2004-05.
• A.J. Davis, the 6-8 son of former NBA star Antonio Davis, has decided to attend Tennessee. He picked the Vols over Clemson. The news came after shooting guard Robert Hubbs also signed on with Cuonzo Martin's squad. The 6-5 Hubbs reportedly had Kentucky and Duke on the list of schools he considered.
• Former Harvard coach and current Northeastern AD Peter Roby has been added to the NCAA's Division I men's basketball selection committee. I like the idea of having a former coach added to the group. Roby was named to a spot vacated when former Delaware AD Bernard Muir left for Stanford.
• Northwestern suffered a blow when junior guard JerShon Cobb was suspended for the upcoming 2012-13 men's basketball season due to violations of team policy. Cobb, who appeared in 21 games, including eight starts last season, averaged over seven points per game. He remains enrolled at Northwestern and continues to be a part of the Wildcats' basketball program with two years of athletic eligibility.

Problems getting refund from D700 purchase in Belgium
Has anybody experienced problems getting their refund (200€) in Belgium from the latest cashback offer?
The company HighCo Data that administers the scheme on behalf of Nikon have sent me a long letter in French that I do not understand and their answers on emails look like they were created by a robot.
I have duly provided them with everything (copies and bar code sticker) in a registered letter but to no avail. Dunno what to do.
And does anybody have an email address of Nikon Belgium that does not go to recruitment?
Thanks in advance

Easy Fix for Wood Furniture DentsJenny Komenda
I love the warmth wood furniture adds to a room, especially when the piece is an antique! But of course older furniture usually has some imperfections. So here's a quick way to fix the finish in your wood pieces, as long as the stain of the wood is still there! This is a quick and easy fix for you this week before hosting your NYE party!
All you have to do is fill the dent or ding with a couple of drops of clear nail polish. Let it dry and sand. Then depending on the finish, wipe with steel wool and paste wax for satin; or wipe with a soft cloth and car polish for a gloss finish! That's it!

I recently upgraded to a 2012 Marin Four Corners. I bought a 2006 Schwinn Super Sport DBX on closeout two years ago for a pretty good price and realized it didn't fit the needs of the majority of my rides, much to the displeasure of my wife. :lol: I'm posting because I would love to hear what some of you think I should do with the Schwinn. I have had it posted on CL for a while and would sell it if offered the right price. On the other hand, I think it would make for a decent starting point as my first tinkering bike.
I have been mulling using it as my around town beater. Possibly converting to flat bar, single speed, etc. I would say I lack intimate knowledge of converting to single speed, flat bar shifters, etc. It really doesn't have room for good full coverage fenders on the rear due to the Schwinn frame.
The bike is pretty stock besides an upgraded rear wheel/hub.
Here's a link to the specs and a picture of it.
What do you guys think?

Welk veteran marks 50 years at resort
Adriene Edwards started waiting tables at the TV bandleader's Escondido country club in 1964
Many of the older owners who grew up watching Welk on TV have passed their time shares on to their children and grandchildren. Edwards, who now has an iPhone and a Facebook page, said it's important to be in tune with younger guests (who like health food and craft burgers) while still honoring the requests of veteran guests (who prefer the Welk menu "classics" like chicken and dumplings and sausage with sauerkraut).
Rancho Bernardo residents John and Mary Ellen Stampfi have been coming to the resort since 1984 and describe Edwards as the main reason.
"She's very professional, she's cordial and she always greets you with a warm smile," John Stampfi said.
Edwards' first husband died from heart disease in 1977. She later married another Marine, George Edwards, and they had a daughter. George passed away from cancer 17 years ago. Today, two of Edwards' three children work full-time at the Welk (John, 56, is in sales and Jennifer, 40, works at the theater). As a result, Edwards said she's happiest when she's at the resort.
"I see these older couples come into the restaurant each night and they're happy because they have a companion," she said. "I don't have a companion anymore. I have this place. This is my family. This is my home."
