Prison Chief Says No Move for Corby
The Bali Times
THE head of Bali's Kerobokan Prison said a report by an Australian magazine that high-profile prisoner Schapelle Corby would be moved to the women's prison at Malang in East Java – described in the report as a remote facility – was untrue and that the convicted drug smuggler was not being relocated.
Woman's Day reported, in an article written by Corby biographer Kathryn Bonella, that the Ministry of Justice and Human Rights in Jakarta had ordered the clandestine move.
A purportedly official ministry document obtained by the magazine read: "Hereby ordering the Head of Kerobokan Detention Centre, Denpasar, Bali, to carry out the transfer of the convict in the name of Sceppele (sic) Corby … to be transferred to Women's Detention Centre in Malang, East Java. The order becomes effective from the date the transfer is signed."
It was reportedly signed on March 2, 2010, over a month ago. But the letterhead under which it appeared is said to be old stock no longer in use by the ministry.
However prison chief Siswanto said this week that there was no such order, or document from the ministry.
"It's not true. That letter is a fake," he said.
A move to the women's prison at Malang by Corby was mooted in 2007 but did not go ahead.
Corby, 32, is serving a 20-year term for attempting to smuggle 4.2 kilograms of marijuana into Bali in 2004. Her family has said she is suffering from acute psychological problems.
The Australian media keeps an intense focus on Corby's prison plight.Filed under: Headlines

How to rescue your face and body from the clutches of pregnancy chaos.
How to rescue your face and body from the clutches of pregnancy chaos.
Acne: Women who already have acne tend to see the condition worsen, especially if they suffer from acne rosacea (signs include persistent redness, bumps and pimples on the face). But even in otherwise blemish-free skin, hormone-induced breakouts can arise.
Melasma: Also known as "the mask of pregnancy," melasma consists of dark facial splotches and usually appears during the second or third trimester.
Stretch Marks: Striations on the surface of the skin result when underlying elastic fibers are torn because of rapid expansion; broken capillaries account for the purple hue.
Dry, Itchy Skin: Two of the most common pregnancy complaints, dryness and itchiness can result from hormonal changes and dehydration; autumn and winter's plummeting humidity levels don't help.
A Tired Appearance: It's an almost inevitable result of growing a baby while attempting to carry on with business as usual.

Now that Republican New Jersey Governor Chris Christie is "strongly considering" running for president, some observers are asking an unusual question about the potential candidate.
Is Chris Christie too fat to be president?
As an overweight man, Christie is certainly not alone in the United States. But does his appearance affect his electability?
American voters, especially in the television era, tend to elect tall, relatively good-looking presidents.
The only president in the past 50 years under 5-foot-10 was Jimmy Carter, who was a bit over 5-9.
And while Bill Clinton was teased for his weight, he could hardly have been considered obese while in office.
The United States has not had a truly obese president since William Howard Taft, who left office in 1913.
Christie, 48, stands 5-11 and is fairly handsome, but his weight is already the butt of jokes and concern.
He hasn't said publicly how much he weighs, although he did jokingly tell radio host Don Imus he weighed an exaggerated 550 pounds.
Christie's health will certainly be an issue if he chooses to run. Opponents are certain to attack a candidate who looks like he could have a heart attack at any moment.
His weight might also undermine his message. Henry Blodget at Business Insider points out that urging spending cuts and belt-tightening might sound a little funny coming from a guy who seems to enjoy a large meal and might have some trouble actually tightening his belt.

Choosing Character
Responsibility for Virtue and Vice
Are there key respects in which character and character defects are voluntary? Can agents with serious vices be rational agents? Jonathan Jacobs answers in the affirmative. Moral character is shaped through voluntary habits, including the ways we habituate ourselves, Jacobs believes. Just as individuals can voluntarily lead unhappy lives without making unhappiness an end, so can they degrade their ethical characters through voluntary action that does not have establishment of vice as its end. Choosing Character presents an account of ethical disability, expanding the domain of responsibility and explicating the role of character in ethical cognition. Jacobs contends that agents become ethically disabled voluntarily when their habits impair their ability to properly appreciate ethical considerations. Such agents are rational, responsible individuals who are yet incapable of virtuous action. The view develops and modifies Aristotelian claims concerning the fixity of character. Jacobs' interpretation is developed in contrast to the overlooked work of Maimonides, who also used Aristotelian resources but argued for the possibility of character change. The notion of ethical disability has profound ramifications for ethics and for current debates about blame and punishment.

"Hey, Hey, Hey!! A greatest hits collection!!! As Waylon once so perfectly put it, "WRONG!"There are two actual hit songs here in their original versions, "On Second Thought, and Runnin' With The Wind." There is one more song that is an orginal, "Lonely Out Tonight." The rest are all remakes of his biggest songs. Nothing makes me angrier than stuff like this. Before you buy this, you just assume they are the big hits in their original form. You can find "On Second Thought,and Runnin' With the Wind" on their original cd's, so just let this one die quietly."

Long expected OSCE report on Turkey's November elections is finally out, here.
I have been reading OSCE reports on Turkey's elections since 2002 for last two days to see if there is a significant difference when it comes to November elections. Answer to this questions is a clear yes, there is a big difference.
I did a long story on OSCE report and how it differs from previous reports in 2002, 2007, 2011, 2015 June general elections, in Turkish. When I look at the page on OSCE and its election observations, it shows that the OSCE began observing member states' elections in 1995. In Turkey, first report, seems to be on the website, from 2002.
OSCE reports on 2002 and 2007 elections held in Turkey use very positive language when describing Turkey's elections. For example, in 2002, OSCE report embraces Turkey's elections for opposition party to seize the power (when AKP first time came to the power). You do not see a lot of criticism both in 2002 and 2007 elections, beside the fact that 10% threshold and ban on other languages beside Turkish.
Even for 2015 June elections, OSCE thinks they were "generally free."
However, when it comes to 2015 November elections, paragraph after paragraph OSCE mission heavily criticizes Turkey's administration for problems in the elections.
As far I can see, OSCE is, for the first time, accusing Turkey for not fulfilling the international obligations and standards in the report (page 12, footnote 46).
You feel like you are reading a report on elections that were held in some sort of dictatorial regime.
As far I can see, OSCE is, for the first time, accusing Turkey for not fulfilling the international obligations and standards in the report (page 12, footnote 46).
You feel like you are reading a report on elections that were held in some sort of dictatorial regime.
Though it is the page 12, and footnote 46, when OSCE says clearly that what the report cited "incidents of intimidation and pressure to vote and the restrictions to campaign freely are not in line with the international obligations and standards."
Full paragraph here, page 12:
"The OSCE/ODIHR LEOM received some reports of voter intimidation and pressure to vote.42 Some members of the CHP, the HDP and the MHP were investigated for defamation of authorities, including insult of the president. A high number of HDP offices were targeted and members were taken into custody.43 In addition, HDP affiliated mayors were suspended,44 and the party's campaign leaflets were confiscated, which had a restraining effect on its campaign.45 These incidents of intimidation and pressure to vote and the restrictions to campaign freely are not in line with the international obligations and standards.46"
The footnote the report gives here is more interesting, same page, at the bottom:
"Paragraph 7.7 of the 1990 OSCE Copenhagen Document provides that the participating States will ensure that law and public policy work to permit political campaigning to be conducted in a fair and free atmosphere in which neither administrative action, violence nor intimidation bars the parties and the candidates from freely presenting their views and qualifications, or prevents the voters from learning and discussing them or from casting their vote free of fear of retribution. See also paragraph 25 of General Comment No. 25 (1996) to Article 25 of the ICCPR. "
OSCE, for the first time in its available reports, accusing Turkey not fulling its obligations to "ensure that law and public policy work to permit political campaigning to be conducted in a fair and free atmosphere."
Is Turkey's democracy still vibrant, and strong as US likes to call it?
Finally, I contacted with the US State Department regarding this report. US State Department spokespeople, right after November elections, avoided calling Turkey's elections "fair, free and transparent" when asked and said that they will wait until the OSCE issues its final report on elections.
When asked this week what the US State Department thinks of Turkey's elections, in light of OSCE reports, I got this long answer, from a State Department official:
"We note the OSCE's final report highlights that the November 1, 2015 elections in Turkey offered voters a variety of choices, but that the challenging security environment, violent attacks against party members and on party premises, and restrictions on media freedom hindered campaigning and the free flow of information to the public.
At the time of the elections, OSCE released a statement of preliminary findings highlighting that the elections offered voters a variety of choices, but that restrictions on media freedom remain a serious concern. We reiterated our own concerns that media outlets and individual journalists critical of the government were subject to pressure and intimidation during the campaign, seemingly in a manner calculated to weaken political opposition. That view has not changed with the final OSCE report.
We have continued to make clear publicly, as well as in discussions with Turkish officials at all levels, our concerns about freedom of the press, freedom of speech, and freedom of assembly. We have urged the Turkish government to ensure its actions uphold the universal democratic values consistent with international law and commitments and that are enshrined in Turkey's constitution."
When I pressed further, and asked clearly if the US State Department, in light of this OSCE report, sees Turkey's elections "free, fair and transparent", I got this response from the same US State Department Official:
"The United States did not provide election monitors to the OSCE Observation Mission for these elections. We closely followed events and concur with the OSCE's assessment as outlined in the final report."
As US says it concurs with the OSCE's assessment as outlined in the final report, means it also concurs that Turkey has not fulfilled its obligations as an OSCE member.
Can we still call Turkey as democracy if the most basic element of democracy which is holding a free, fair and transparent elections not valid anymore?

A Fort Bragg military judge has sentenced Bowe Bergdahl to a dishonorable discharge, fined him $10,000 and reduced his rank to that of private from sergeant but did not sentence him to any time in prison.
The 31-year-old Army soldier pleaded guilty to desertion and misbehavior before the enemy last month, calling his actions "inexcusable."
Bergdahl left his post while on duty in Afghanistan's Paktika province in 2009 and got lost, only to be captured by the Taliban two or three hours later. He spent the next five years enduring torture in captivity and attempted to escape 15 times.
Experts also testified during the trial that Bergdahl provided a "gold mine" of actionable intelligence for the U.S. military once he was recovered. His detailed descriptions of life in captivity led to greatly improved methods for other troops looking to evade and escape the enemy.
"I was captured by the enemy against my will," Bergdahl told the hearing last month. "At the time I had no intention of causing search and recovery operations. ... It's very inexcusable."
In a statement released after the trial, Bergdahl expressed his gratitude to everyone who searched for him in 2009, "especially those who heroically sustained injuries."
He and his defense team also leveled strong criticism against President Donald Trump, who repeatedly attacked Bergdahl while campaigning last year, which they said harmed his chances of a fair trial.
"President Trump's unprincipled effort to stoke a lynch-mob atmosphere while seeking our Nation's highest office has cast a dark cloud over the case," the statement read. "Every American should be offended by his assault on the fair administration of justice and disdain for basic constitutional rights."
Trump called Bergdahl a "traitor" at least 45 times while he was campaigning, often imagining gruesome death scenarios while he did so. During an Iowa campaign appearance in 2015, for instance, Trump said Bergdahl should be "thrown out of an airplane without a parachute."
Trump responded to the sentencing in a tweet, calling it "a complete and total disgrace to our Country and to our Military."
Bergdahl's lawyers noted in the trial that he had previously undiagnosed mental illnesses before he enrolled in the Army, including schizotypal personality disorder and "severe" post-traumatic stress disorder.
"Hypothetically, he probably should not have been in the Army," Capt. Nina Banks, a member of his defense team, said during closing arguments.
Former Navy SEAL James Hatch helped search for Bergdahl after he went missing in 2009. Though he and his military dog, Remco, came under enemy fire during the search, leaving him wounded and his dog dead, he said last week that he never doubted the mission.
"He is an American," Hatch said. "He had a mom."
Bergdahl was released in 2014 thanks to a prisoner swap organized by the Obama administration.
Bergdahl faced a maximum sentence of life in prison.
This story has been updated with a statement from Bergdahl and a tweet from Trump.

Sometimes,relocating to a new apartment or office is mandatory, you have no other option, no matter your affiliation and emotional connection with the current premise. One of the reputable moving companies in the world today that can help you relocate is boballardmoving.com. The company is customer-oriented and progressive, other companies need to borrow a leaf from it.
Today, I want to give you some piano moving tips to help you avert regrets.
1# Know What it Takes
Just as you would first consider the number of cartons that you would need park your items when planning for an office relocation project, it is very very important that you know what it will take to move the piano safely to its new home. If this is your first time going through this experience, you will need to hire a professional mover or moving company so as to make the right decisions.
2# Attention to Care
One of the main reasons why pianos are some of the most expensive accessories that you can ever buy and possess is because they are made from high value parts that should be handled with great care. So, as you plan for the move, it is important that you make sure that the people sent by the moving company to help you pack do so with great care. That is not a problem with the experienced companies that have been operation for years, the new companies need to be watched closely as their personnel might not have the skills needed to get the job done.
Finally, you need to check the guide for details on how to assemble the piano back to its normal status after you land in your new home. However, there are some that do not need to be broken down into pieces when been moved.

Mayor Julián Castro addresses the U.S. Sentate Committee on Banking, Housing & Urban Affairs on June 25, 2014.
The political ascendancy of Mayor Julián Castro cleared its first major obstacle in Washington this morning. His nomination to join President Obama's cabinet as the next Secretary of Housing and Urban Development was approved by the Senate Banking Committee. Next for Castro is confirmation by the full Senate.
In his address to the committee, Castro vowed to focus on cross-agency collaboration and results-oriented strategies, similar to how he structured SA2020.
The nomination was approved in a 16-6 vote that fell largely on party lines, although Castro did receive bipartisan support. Four Republican senators joined the committee's Democratic members in a vote to move forward with the nomination. The votes against Castro were all cast by Republicans.
The Republican Senators opposing Castor's nomination included ranking member Michael Crapo of Idaho, Patrick Toomey of Pennsylvania, Mark Kirk of Illinois, David Vitter of Louisiana, Tom Coburn of Oklahoma and Jerry Moran of Kansas.
Dean Heller of Nevada, Richard Shelby of Alabama, Bob Corker of Tennessee, and Mike Johanns of Nebraska were the four Republican Senators who voted in favor of Castro. They joined the committee's 12 Democrats: Chairman Tim Johnson of South Dakota, Charles Schumer of New York, Elizabeth Warren of Massachusetts, Jack Reed of Rhode Island, Robert Menendez of New Jersey, Kay Hagan of North Carolina, Jon Tester of Montana, Sherrod Brown of Ohio, Mark Warner of Virginia, Joe Manchin of West Virginia, Heidi Heitkamp of North Dakota and Jeff Merkley of Oregon.
Republican Texas Senator John Cornyn introduced Castro to the committee and voiced his support for the Mayor's nomination.
No date has been set for Castro's Senate confirmation, although his HUD nomination is widely expected to pass once it is put up to a vote on the floor.
If your interested in the nuts and bolts of the nomination process, C-SPAN has video of the hearing.

DbDefence 7 adds support for PKCS#11 in SQL Server. PKCS#11 modules provide support for encryption hardware, encryption algorithms, secure storage and other security related functions. PKCS#11 modules may serve as a driver for a real hardware or provide only an encryption algorithm.
Benefits from using PKCS#11 modules
- Security. Hardware modules and key management provide better security.
- Encryption control. You can write own module and control encryption and key storage.
- Certification. By using certified PKCS#11 modules and certified hardware you can easier pass various security regulations and compliances.
- No vendor-lock. You are not "vendor-locked" with the encryption algorithm. You may switch from different encryption providers. PKCS#11 specification is very well documented.
- Price. Small companies may use inexpensive hardware for trusted encryption. Large companies may extend existing security hardware infrastructure and get SQL Server encryption functionality at lower cost.
Technical information
DbDefence implements data-at-rest encryption by using standardized AES algorithm. If the module is used, the encryption entirely relies on the module. DbDefence sends every chunk of the database data to the module's encryption/decryption routine. PKCS#11 modules may represent existing physical hardware attached to the computer or may virtualized it. However, not all devices are suitable for database encryption. Device (physical or virtual) must support AES_CTR mechanism. You may find hardware that provides most common AES_CBC or AES_ECB, but those algorithms can't be used. To check if hardware supports AES_CTR you must check vendor documentation.
Encryptoin functionality using PKCS#11 module were added to Encryptor GUI, command line tool and API.

Update Jun 13, 2016: China private fix asset investment from Jan to Jun at 2.8% year-over-year; taking Jun 2016 alone, private fix asset investment is negative -2.7%, this is down from about 10% in Dec 2015, spectacular tumbling.
This consistent with wealth exodus from China continue and Bitcoin price about 5% higher in China than outside. private fix asset investment was never below 10% only 6 months ago, and since the decline is so dramatic and sharp, seems to indict private enterprises/bosses are moving their money out of the country en masse, scared by the RMB devaluation expectation.
Also GDP growth at 6.7%, at the cost of about 12%M2 increase (about 34%GDP amount of credit/cash). Quite amazing when you consider 34%GDP of credit create 6.7% GDP growth. Even though government might stimulate but quite some government ministers/"authoritative people" have expressed that it is unlikely large scale stimulus that can revitalize the bull again. The worst is that more printing and stimulation such as 34%GDP credit growth, will further scare private investor of devaluation of RMB and to get out of the country.
The most worrying sign was a continuing steep drop-off in private fixed-asset investment growth in China. This increased by just 3.9% year on year in January–May, down from 5.2% in January–April. We can deduce from this data to get data for May 2016 at negative 1.3%:
3.9% * 5 – 5.2% * 4 = -1.3%
This decelerating trend of weakening RMB and consistent wealth outflow, as ~70% high value Chinese business people have a foreign passport, this can be a big trend in the making. As private investment account for 65% of total in China. Even though government investment of 23.3% in May can balance the down of private investment and end a total investment to 9.6% for May, but more printing to invest by China government may further scare business people on devaluation and accelerate wealth exodus. 5 year trend of continue weakening global economic and price trend. US FED's trending rate up. continue lower bond price. All point to a EM market, as well as global markets, facing an end of credit expansion and bust. Moreover, China's foreign reserve is about 10.6% of M2, a currency devaluation and exodus looks inevitable.
The quadruple of China high debt at 282% (as April 2014), devaluation of YUAN, and newly falter of stimulus, default waves ahead, make any attempt to further stimulating unlikely as central bank will be busy combating currency issues. China's vice premier Zhang Gaoli said at a forum in Beijing on the past Wednesday that further stimulus unlikely. Thus this could be the top of real-estate bubble and last failed attempt to stimulate by China and the end of 30 years of credit expansion.
China's total debt has quadrupled, rising from $7 trillion in 2007 to $28 trillion by mid-2014. At 282 percent of GDP, according to estimates from McKinsey. That is about 28 trillion USD of the future wealth are spent before those wealth are created by China. And Significant amount of these debt are borrowed by local government or its investment vehicles, and use land sales as collateral, which may drop to zero as housing slump.
Global central banks and government had done too much printing and stimulus, now they are at the peak of a bubble they created and they are out of bullets. China and EM burst will impact EU more, the later also tangled in mess of BriExit. Looks like a global reset looks more likely than ever.

The Republic of India is a country that occupies a greater part of South Asia. It has a coastline of over seven thousand kilometres, borders Pakistan to the west, the People's Republic of China, Nepal, and Bhutan to the northeast, and Bangladesh and Myanmar to the east. more...
In the Indian Ocean, it is adjacent to three island nations – the Maldives to the southwest, Sri Lanka to the south, and Indonesia to the southeast. India also claims a border with Afghanistan to the northwest.
The name India /'ɪndiə/ is derived from the Old Persian version of Sindhu, the historic local appellation for the River Indus (see Origin of India's name). The Constitution of India and common usage also recognise Bharat (Hindi: भारत /bʰɑːrət̪/ listen (help·info)), as an official name of equal status. A third name, Hindustan (Hindi: हिन्दुस्तान /hin̪d̪ust̪ɑːn/) listen (help·info) (Persian: Land of the Hindus) has been used since the twelfth century, though its contemporary use is unevenly applied due to domestic disputes by some over its representation as a national signifier.

Pomegranates are an indie Rock band from Cincinnati, OH.
Jacob Merritt and Isaac Karns formed the group in the fall of '06. They soon recruited Joey Cook and recorded an EP which led to being signed by Lujo Records.
Josh Kufeldt joined in late '07 and was onboard for band's full-length '08 debut, "Everything Is Alive."
Pomegranates second album was largely recorded in northern Kentucky at the house of band friend Steven Howell, a singer/songwriter in his own rite, while overdubs and additional songs were laid down in Washington D.C.
Daniel Lyon came onboard in January, '10 (replacing Kufeldt). A short time later, Pomegranates returned to their Cinny hometown and worked at The Monastery, a local studio, for their third full-length effort, "One Of Us." The Alt. Rock/art-pop set landed on the College Radio Top 10 Albums chart (#7).

Our apartments include full kitchens, washer and dryer hookups and each apartment has its own balcony. Our residents enjoy the company of their neighbors while enjoying access to three meals a day in our unique restaurant-style dining room.
While our residents have the ability to come and go as they please, there are many opportunities to participate in a wide range of planned social activities, scheduled transportation to shopping, doctor appointments and other outings. Housekeeping is provided bi-weekly and each resident has an emergency pendant that will contact a member of our team who is available 24 hours per day.

New Energy Wellness is designed to promote active senior health by improving your current fitness level and giving you more energy than you've felt in years. Research-based with proven results, this strength building senior wellness program offers adults ages 50 and older the ability to enjoy active senior living and, quite simply, to feel better.
Offered to both residents and the community, the New Energy Wellness Program exposes seniors to a series of exercise programs designed to build balance, vigor, and agility in everyday life.

While it's natural for caregivers to allow their own needs to get pushed aside, it's important for them to realize that they deserve a break from their responsibilities in order to properly care for themselves.
This is where senior respite care can make a difference in a caregiver's life. Respite stays are an option for those who need respite care services for elderly friends or family on a short-term basis. This allows home caregivers the ability to travel, start a new job, recuperate from an illness, or pursue other interests. Many find respite stays are the perfect option for recovery from surgery or hospitalization.
Should a short stay require extended care, we can accommodate that, too. We carefully examine the needs of our respite guests and provide the level of care required to make their stay comfortable and enjoyable. Family members leave with the confidence that their loved one is safe and in good hands.

The Hyphenates
We are THE HYPHENATES. A coalition of multi-talented; multi- careered women in the performing arts dedicated to creating works that prominently feature the female perspective. The world is changing, women's voices are booming, and we feel a strong need to see this evolution and revolution reflected in the arts. Our goal is quality of vision, story, voice, direction and seats at the table. Women are 50.8% of the population.
It's time.
Several years ago, the talented actress Marcia DeBonis invited several friends to a dinner party in her apartment. She said that she knew so many talented, multi-hyphenated (actor-writer, actor-director, actor-producer) women that she thought it was high time we convened. So that night, Marcia, Julie Ann Emery, Susan Ferrara, Marin Hinkle, Mary McCann, Susan Misner, Kellie Overbey, Susan Pourfar, Carrie Preston and Cynthia Silver came together and our collective, THE HYPHENATES, was born.
Over the following months, the friendships of THE HYPHENATES deepened, and we began rallying around each other's projects: plays, films, acting, writing, producing. We shared contacts and made calls. We became invested in one another's work. Then Susan Ferrara came to us with a play that she had written inspired by the work of a truly remarkable woman, a pioneer: Mary Ann "Buzz" Goodbody. She was the first woman to direct at the Royal Shakespeare Company, a prestigious organization and the ultimate boys club. In the eighth year of her term with the Company, she directed what would become the HAMLET of her generation, starring a then- unknown actor named Ben Kingsley.
Susan's play epitomized everything we'd been talking about during our Hyphenate meetings: how to excel as women in what is still, remarkably, considered a man's world. In Buzz's case, she hit the glass ceiling extremely hard. We think of her as a fighter, a trailblazer, a leader, and an iconoclast. Very few people have heard of her, and we want to remedy that by bringing Buzz's story to a larger audience. We understand that we rise faster in our professions if we rise together; if we pool our efforts and become resources for one another.
We believe that the view of women is largely created by what we see in entertainment and in order to change, shape and empower that view, we need to work together.
We invite you to come with us on this journey. We want to share Buzz's story, all of our stories, with the world, and we hope you will join us.
Imagine if Buzz had found a Buzz to show her the way.
