confidence about the next 12 months also increased over the period, the BCC said.\nIt comes ahead of GDP figures for the first quarter of the year - which, if negative, would mean that Britain had slipped into its third recession in less than five years.\nBut the BCC's director general, John Longworth, has told Jeff Randall Live its survey results showed exports are booming, suggesting things have improved this quarter.\n\"As I go around the country businesses have been saying for quite some time, it's tough, it's harder than it used to be but we're doing ok and if all the businesses I'm seeing are saying that one wonders where all the gloom is coming from,\" he said.\nMr Longworth questioned the validity of the early data captured by the Office for National Statistics:\nThe EEF said

Ich pracodawca płacił im we Francji według polskich stawek. Wiele firm stara się oszczędzić przez tzw. \"oddelegowanie\" pracowników do pracy do innego kraju w ramach swobody \"świadczenia usług\".\nW 2007 roku pracownicy zostali zatrudnieni przez firmę Metalu Polska i wysłani na budowy do Francji. Na początku firma Metalu płaciła regularnie, lecz później przestała i Polacy strajkowali, by odzyskać zaległe pensje.\nJeden z pracowników miał wypadek w pracy w listopadzie 2007 r. - Pracowaliśmy na dachu i musieliśmy przenieść żurawia. Dźwigu nie było, więc szef kazał nam to zrobić ręcznie - wspomina Zdzisław Wolczyński. Żuraw się na niego przewrócił, łamiąc mu kręgosłup i nogę w śródstopiu. Wolczyński spędził osiem dni we francuskim szpitalu, a potem pracodawca odesłał go w gorsecie ortopedycznym do domu.\nDopiero wtedy okazało się, że Wolczyński nie był ubezpieczony. Firma początkowo zgłosiła go w Polsce do ZUS, ale potem przestała płacić.\n- Gdy mąż był leczony, Metalu przesłała nam w sumie 400 euro, ale gdy wystąpiliśmy do sądu, przestała płacić. ZUS wypłaca niepełną rentę (niewiele ponad tysiąc złotych), bo dla nich mąż był nieubezpieczony - opowiada żona Wolczyńskiego.\nW lutym sąd we francuskim Rouen wydał wyrok dotyczący płacy Wolczyńskiego i innych pracowników Metalu. Uznał, że nie mogli być uważani za pracowników oddelegowanych. Oddelegowywać może bowiem firma prowadząca działalność w Polsce, która dostała kontrakt we Francji. Tymczasem Metalu Polska była \"wydmuszką\" powołaną wyłącznie po to, aby pozyskać ludzi i wysyłać ich do pracy we Francji dla firmy Sen Metal. Dlatego zdaniem sądu Polacy zatrudnieni byli de facto przez Francuzów i powinni zarabiać tyle, ile przewiduje francuskie prawo. Zasądził więc 42 osobom zaległe pensje, nadgodziny, dodatki za delegację, w sumie około miliona euro.\nWedług danych Ministerstwa Pracy w ostatnich latach do pracy za granicę delegowano 200-250 tys. osób rocznie.", "url": "http://cia.bzzz.net/francja_polacy_wygrali_w_sadzie_przeciw_dyskriminacji_placowej", "archive_url": "https://web.archive.org/web/20160412012749/http://cia.media.pl/francja_polacy_wygrali_w_sadzie_przeciw_dyskriminacji_placowej" }, { "language": "pl", "title": "Polakom trzeba płacić tak samo jak Francuzom", "text": "To kolejna odsłona sporu o to, kogo i na jakich warunkach można w Unii Europejskiej oddelegować do pracy do innego kraju w ramach swobody świadczenia usług. Spór ten wybuchł po rozszerzeniu Unii o Polskę i inne kraje, w których płace są o wiele niższe niż w Europie Zachodniej.W 2007 roku Zdzisław Wolczyński i inni Polacy zostali zatrudnieni przez firmę Metalu Polska i wysłani na budowy do Francji. Wolczyński pracował jako monter fasad na budowie biurowca pod Paryżem.- Jechałem do pracy legalnie, wszyscy byliśmy przekonani, że pracodawca płaci za nas ZUS - wspomina. Mieli dostawać im 450 euro miesięcznie plus 45 euro za każdy dzień oddelegowania. To znacznie mniej, niż wynosi stawka dla Francuza (minimalna francuska płaca to 1365 euro, a w niektórych branżach więcej), ale Polacy byli zadowoleni. W końcu miesięcznie dostawali ponad 6 tys. zł.Oddelegowania cieszyły się wśród polskich pracowników jadących do Niemiec, Francji czy Beneluksu popularnością, bo pozwalały na legalne zatrudnienie za większe pieniądze niż w Polsce. Zagranicznym pracodawcom ta forma odpowiada, bo delegowanym mogą płacić mniej niż miejscowym.Na początku firma Metalu płaciła regularnie, lecz później przestała i Polacy strajkowali, by odzyskać zaległe pensje.Dla Zdzisława Wolczyńskiego koszmar zaczął się w listopadzie 2007 r. - Pracowaliśmy na dachu i musieliśmy przenieść żurawia. Dźwigu nie było, więc szef kazał nam to zrobić ręcznie - wspomina. Żuraw się na niego przewrócił, łamiąc mu kręgosłup i nogę w śródstopiu. Na szczęście uraz kręgosłupa nie spowodował trwałego paraliżu.Wolczyński spędził osiem dni we francuskim szpitalu, a potem pracodawca odesłał go w gorsecie ortopedycznym do domu. - Żeby zaoszczędzić, przewieźli mnie na lotnisko normalnym samochodem, a ponieważ nie mogłem siedzieć w samolocie, ustalili ze stewardesą, że będę stał w trakcie lotu.Dopiero wtedy okazało się, że Wolczyński nie był ubezpieczony. Firma początkowo zgłosiła go w Polsce do ZUS, ale potem przestała płacić.- W przypadku oddelegowania jest tak, że gdy firma przestała płacić składki do ZUS, to powinna zacząć je płacić we Francji - zauważa Jarosław Leśniewski, szef departamentu legalności zatrudnienia w Państwowej Inspekcji Pracy. Tak się jednak nie stało.- Gdy mąż był leczony, Metalu przesłała nam w sumie 400 euro, ale gdy wystąpiliśmy do sądu, przestała płacić. ZUS wypłaca niepełną rentę (niewiele ponad tysiąc złotych), bo dla nich mąż był nieubezpieczony - opowiada żona Wolczyńskiego.W lutym sąd we francuskim Rouen wydał wyrok dotyczący płacy Wolczyńskiego i jego kolegów. Uznał, że nie mogli być uważani za pracowników oddelegowanych. Oddelegowywać może bowiem firma prowadząca działalność w Polsce, która dostała kontrakt we Francji. Tymczasem Metalu Polska była \"wydmuszką\" powołaną wyłącznie po to, aby pozyskać ludzi i wysyłać ich do pracy we Francji dla firmy Sen Metal. Dlatego zdaniem sądu Polacy zatrudnieni byli de facto przez Francuzów i powinni zarabiać tyle, ile przewiduje francuskie prawo. Zasądził więc 42 osobom zaległe pensje, nadgodziny, dodatki za delegację, w sumie około miliona euro.To wyjątkowo duża sprawa dotycząca tego rodzaju zatrudnienia Polaków w krajach UE, lecz niejedyna. Według danych Ministerstwa Pracy w ostatnich latach do pracy za granicę delegowano 200-250 tys. osób rocznie. Zdecydowanie najczęściej ta forma zatrudnienia dotyczyła Polaków w Niemczech. Do Francji w pierwszym półroczu 2010 r. (ostatnim, za który są dane) oddelegowano ponad 11 tys. osób. Państwowa Inspekcja Pracy prowadziła w zeszłym roku 204 sprawy, w których podejrzewano nieprawidłowości dotyczące pracowników delegowanych oraz wysłanych za granicę przez agencje zatrudnienia.- Sprawy te dotyczyły 21 państw, najwięcej Belgii, Holandii, Francji i Niemiec - wyjaśnia dyrektor Leśniewski. O tym, że problemy dotyczące wykorzystywania polskich pracowników są częste, może świadczyć np. to, że norweska inspekcja pracy raz w tygodniu udziela Polakom informacji w swej infolinii po polsku, a holenderska przyjmuje w internecie skargi po polsku.Dla większości zatrudnionych przez firmę Metalu sprawa zakończyła się dobrze, bo zapewne odzyskają zasądzone im pieniądze. Zdzisław Wolczyński dopiero teraz, gdy jest jasne, że pracował dla francuskiej firmy, może sądzić się o odszkodowanie bądź rentę.- Zajmowałem się w ostatnich latach sprawami wielu Polaków, którzy ulegli wypadkom pracując we Francji - mówi adwokat Władysław Lis, który od lat praktykuje we Francji i który reprezentował Polaków. I przestrzega: - Wyjazd do pracy za granicą bez ubezpieczenia to ogromne ryzyko. Wszyscy, którzy decydują się na oddelegowanie, powinni być uczuleni, czy pracodawca płaci za nich składki, czego potwierdzeniem jest wydawany przez ZUS formularz E101 [ostatnio przemianowany na A-1]. Francja nie jest obecnie głównym kierunkiem migracji Polaków, lecz według danych GUS w 2008 r. (ostatnim, za który są dane) przebywało tam 56 tys. czasowych migrantów z Polski.", "url": "http://wyborcza.pl/1,75248,9402139,Polakom_trzeba_placic_tak_samo_jak_Francuzom.html", "archive_url": "https://web.archive.org/web/20110410225031/http://wyborcza.pl/1,75248,9402139,Polakom_trzeba_placic_tak_samo_jak_Francuzom.html" } ]

Februar mit der bayerischen Gesetzesinitiative zu einem Verbot von so genannten Killerspielen. Die Vorlage steht unter dem Titel \"Entwurf eines Gesetzes zur Verbesserung des Jugendschutzes\" als 17. Tagesordnungspunkt auf der Agenda der 830. Sitzung des Bundesrats. Ziel des Vorstoßes sei es, \"die Maßnahmen zum Schutz von Jugendlichen vor den negativen Einflüssen jugendgefährdender Medien insbesondere so genannter Killerspiele\" zu verbessern, heißt es in der Erläuterung des Gesetzentwurfs (PDF-Datei). Anzeige\nDer Gesetzesantrag (PDF-Datei) sieht einen neuen Paragraph 131a für das Strafgesetzbuch (StGB) vor. Dieser Paragraph definiert \"virtuelle Killerspiele\" als \"Spielprogramme, die grausame oder sonst unmenschliche Gewalttätigkeiten gegen Menschen oder menschenähnliche Wesen darstellen und dem Spieler die Beteiligung an dargestellten Gewalttätigkeiten solcher Art ermöglichen\". 131a soll Paragraph 131 ergänzen, in dem lediglich von \"Gewaltdarstellungen\" die Rede ist. Anders als bei der reinen Darstellung steige der Spieler bei brutalen Computerspielen als \"dominant Handelnder intensiver in das fiktive Geschehen ein, als dies etwa bei passiv beobachtenden Zuschauern oder Lesern der Fall ist\", halten die Verfasser fest. Die aktive Übernahme der Rolle eines rücksichtslosen brutalen Kämpfers fördere geradezu die Akzeptanz von gewaltlegitimierenden Verhaltensmustern.\nWer solche Spiele herstellt, verbreitet, veröffentlicht, anbietet, anpreist, bezieht oder vorrätig hält, soll deshalb in Zukunft mit Geldstrafen oder Freiheitsentzug von bis zu einem Jahr bestraft werden können. Außerdem sieht der Gesetzentwurf vor, das so genannte \"Erzieherprivileg\" (Absatz 4 des Paragraphen 131 im Strafgesetzbuch) zu entfernen: Dieses nimmt Erziehungsberechtigte vom Verbot aus, Minderjährigen Gewaltdarstellungen zugänglich zu machen. Nach Ansicht der Autoren des neuen Gesetzentwurfs bestehe dafür kein legitimes Bedürfnis, weshalb der Absatz ersatzlos gestrichen werden soll.\nNicht-virtuelle \"Killerspiele\" wie Paintball oder Gotcha, \"die geeignet sind, die Mitspieler in ihrer Menschenwürde herabzusetzen, indem ihre Tötung oder Verletzung unter Einsatz von Schusswaffen oder diesen nachgebildeten Gegenständen als Haupt- oder Nebeninhalt simuliert wird\", will der Entwurf zur Ordnungswidrigkeit erklären – wer solche Veranstaltungen ausrichtet, daran teilnimmt oder dafür Grundstücke, Anlagen oder Einrichtungen bereitstellt, soll mit einer Geldbuße belegt werden. Weitere Änderungen sieht der Gesetzentwurf beim Jugendschutzgesetz vor, zudem stellt er strengere Anforderungen an die Freiwillige Selbstkontrolle (FSK). Der bisherige Bußgeldrahmen des Jugendschutzgesetzes soll von 50.000 auf 500.000 Euro ausgeweitet werden.\nDie Verfasser räumen ein, dass einzelne Auswirkungen von Gewaltspielen zwar noch umstritten seien, sie berufen sich aber auf \"den heutigen Forschungsstand\", nach dem insbesondere keine begründeten Zweifel daran bestünden, dass der Kontakt mit derartigen Medien die Gefahr einer Nachahmung und einer Abstumpfung in sich berge, die sich schädlich auf die Gemeinschaft auswirken könne. Ein \"Killerspiel\"-Verbot ist in Deutschland allerdings umstritten: Laut Umfragen lehnt die Mehrheit der deutschen Internet-Nutzer ein solches Verbot ab, in der Gesamtbevölkerung gibt es aber offenbar einen Konsens über eine Verschärfung der Gesetze. Hinsichtlich der Umsetzung der Gesetzesänderungen haben sich die Verfasser ebenfalls Gedanken gemacht: \"Insbesondere werden durch ein Verbot die Handlungsmöglichkeiten gegenüber Internet-Providern gestärkt.\"\nSiehe zu dem Thema auch:", "url": "http://www.heise.de/newsticker/meldung/85021", "archive_url": "https://web.archive.org/web/20070209233935/http://www.heise.de/newsticker/meldung/85021" }, { "language": "de", "title": "\"Killerspiele\" sollen ab dem 1.

April 2008 verboten sein\nvon Bernd Kling: Freitag 9 Februar 2007, 1:58\nDer bayerische Gesetzentwurf, der am 16. 2. 2007 im Bundesrat debattiert werden soll, enthält Formulierungen, die tatsächlich an einen verfrühten Aprilscherz erinnern.\nErstmal versucht der Gesetzentwurf zu bestimmen, was Stand der wissenschaftlichen Forschung ist:\n\"Wissenschaftliche Kenntnisse belegen, dass insbesondere so genannte Killerspiele, die menschenverachtende Gewalttätigkeiten zum Gegenstand haben, eine gewaltabstumpfende Wirkung haben können.\" Das ist zwar umstritten, wie auch die Paragraphenschreiber zugeben müssen, doch \"zahlreiche wissenschaftliche Erkenntnisse legen aber eine nachteilige Wirkung auf Jugendliche nahe\".\n\"Legen nahe\" ist schon eine ziemlich dünne Grundlage für ein Gesetz - und dann kommt noch die übliche Wendung, dass die Bluttat in Emsdetten irgendwie mit virtuellen Spielen zu tun haben müsse. Das muss dann als Begründung für reichlich absurde Gesetzestexte herhalten.\nBis zu einem Jahr hinter reale Gitter geschickt werden soll daher, wer \"Spielprogramme, die grausame oder sonst unmenschliche Gewalttätigkeiten gegen Menschen oder menschenähnliche Wesen darstellen und dem Spieler die Beteiligung an dargestellten Gewalttätigkeiten solcher Art ermöglichen, (1) verbreitet, (2) öffentlich zugänglich macht, (3) einer Person unter achtzehn Jahren anbietet, überlässt oder zugänglich macht oder (4) herstellt, bezieht, liefert, vorrätig hält, anbietet, ankündigt, anpreist, einzuführen oder auszuführen unternimmt, um sie im Sinne der Nummern 1 bis 3 zu verwenden oder einem anderen eine solche Verwendung zu ermöglichen.\"\nDas soll ins Stafgesetzbuch geschrieben werden, als wäre ein Spiel schon ein Verbrechen. Das muss man Wort um Wort lesen, um die Absurditäten richtig würdigen zu können. So soll schon die bloße \"Ankündigung\" oder \"Anpreisung\" eines Spiels ins Gefängnis führen können, und was die Becksteins hinterher als derart schwere Straftaten zu interpretieren geneigt sind, das wollen wir lieber gar nicht wissen.\nIm Gesetz für Ordnungswidrigkeiten will die Laptop- und Lederhosenfraktion ebenfalls zulangen, und da soll tatsächlich auch das Spielen selbst bestraft werden:\n\"Ordnungswidrig handelt, wer (1) Spiele veranstaltet, die geeignet sind, die Mitspieler in ihrer Menschenwürde herabzusetzen, indem ihre Tötung oder Verletzung unter Einsatz von Schusswaffen oder diesen nachgebildeten Gegenständen als Haupt- oder Nebeninhalt simuliert wird, (2) hierfür Grundstücke, Anlagen oder Einrichtungen bereitstellt oder (3) an solchen Spielen teilnimmt.\"\nAlso noch mal von vorn: Selbst wenn in einem Spiel nur ein Kampf simuliert wird, in dem als \"Nebeninhalt\" ein Mitspieler mit Schusswaffen oder irgendwelchen Dingern, die so ähnlich aussehen könnten, eine virtuelle \"Verletzung\" erleidet, dann wird dieser spielfreudige Mitspieler in seiner Menschenwürde herabgesetzt - und deshalb soll dieser Spaß ordnungswidrig sein und bis zu 5000 Euro Bußgeld kosten.\nDie Paragraphenritter haben sich schon das richtige Datum ausgesucht. Und statt solche unsinnigen Spiele mit gesetzgebenden Organen zu machen, sollten sie lieber ein wenig Kindheit nachholen und eine Runde Räuber & Gendarm einlegen.\n(bk)\nGesetzesantrag des Freistaates Bayern (PDF)\n\"Killerspiele\" verbessern die Sicht\nBeckstein, der Ego-Shooter\n\"Bild\" macht den Beckstein (Kommentar)\nBayerns Beckstein trommelt in Europa gegen \"Killerspiele\"\nBayerischer Elternverband: \"Killerspiele\" verbieten ist ein Schmarrn!\nBayerns Politiker und Lehrer wollen \"Killerspiele\" killen\nBeckstein: \"Killerspiele\"-Käufer in den Knast\nKillerspiele-Pfeiffer pfeift nach noch mehr Verboten\nDer Rest der Welt wundert sich über deutsche \"Killerspiele\"-Debatte", "url": "http://de.theinquirer.net/2007/02/09/killerspiele_sollen_ab_dem_1_a.html", "archive_url": "https://web.archive.org/web/20070211192355/http://de.theinquirer.net/2007/02/09/killerspiele_sollen_ab_dem_1_a.html" }, { "language": "de", "title": "Der Rest der Welt wundert sich über deutsche “Killerspiele”-Debatte", "text": "Der Rest der Welt wundert sich über deutsche “Killerspiele”-Debatte\nvon : Bernd Kling: Mittwoch 13 Dezember 2006, 11:49\nDie absurde deutsche “Killerspiele”-Debatte wird erst jetzt mit einer gewissen zeitlichen Verzögerung außerhalb der Landesgrenzen wahrgenommen.\n“Deutsche Regierung betrachtet Computerfiguren als menschlich”, titeln zum Beispiel unsere Kollegen vom britischen INQ und wundern sich:\n“Neue Gesetze werden zur Folge haben, dass Computer-generierte Figuren Rechte haben und nicht länger erschossen, mit Kettensägen zerteilt oder mit dem Hammer erschlagen werden dürfen.\nDeutsche Spiele werden bereits zensiert, und viele sind im Vaterland verboten.

Der Spitzenverband der Bundeskulturverbände verwies am Mittwoch in Berlin auf die Kunstfreiheit, die auch für Computerspiele gelte.\nComputerspieler\n© AFP\nDagegen wird in der CDU/CSU-Bundestagsfraktion ein generelles Verbot für Herstellung und Verkauf von so genannten Killerspielen geprüft. Dies geht über die Pläne von Familienministerin Ursula von der Leyen (CDU) hinaus, die lediglich die Schwelle für ein Verbot gewalttätiger Computerspiele für Kinder und Jugendliche senken will. Der Bundesrat befasst sich am Freitag auf Antrag Bayerns mit einem generellen Verbot von Killerspielen.\nNach Untersuchungen des Hannoveraner Kriminologen Christian Pfeiffer spielt von den zehnjährigen Jungen jeder zweite zumindest gelegentlich Spiele, die erst ab 16 Jahren freigegeben sind. Von den 14- oder 15-jährigen Jungen sind es 82 Prozent, die gelegentlich Spiele spielen, die erst ab 18 erlaubt sind, berichtete Pfeiffer in Radioeins vom RBB. Nach seinen Erkenntnissen beruhen massive Leistungskrisen der Jungen in der Schule darauf, dass sie zu viel Zeit mit Gewaltvideos verbringen.\nNach Angaben des Familienexperten der CDU/CSU-Fraktion, Johannes Singhammer, schließt seine Fraktion auch ein Verbot von realen Gewaltspielen nicht aus, wenn dabei Mitspieler in ihrer Menschenwürde herabgesetzt werden. Dagegen warnte der Kulturrat davor, über das Ziel hinauszuschießen. \"Erwachsene müssen das Recht haben, sich im Rahmen der gesetzlichen Bestimmungen auch Geschmacklosigkeiten oder Schund anzusehen beziehungsweise entsprechende Spiele zu spielen.\" Besser sei es, die Selbstkontrolle bei der Unterhaltungssoftware zu stärken.\nDer kulturpolitische Sprecher der CDU/CSU-Bundestagsfraktion, Wolfgang Börnsen, sieht bei dem Thema auch das Fernsehen in der Verantwortung. \"Gewaltdarstellungen auch im Vorabendprogramm sind leider keine Seltenheit\", sagte er.\nVoting Sollen von \"Gewalt beherrschte\" Spiele verboten werden? Ja Nein Vielen Dank für die Teilnahme an der Umfrage\nVon der Leyen will noch vor der Sommerpause eine Änderung des Jugendschutzgesetzes im Kabinett vorlegen. Damit sollen nicht nur Gewalt verherrlichende, sondern auch Gewalt beherrschte Spiele automatisch für Jugendliche verboten sein. Bisher sind nur 3,9 Prozent aller Spiele allein für Erwachsene zugelassen. Für die Linksfraktion ist der Vorstoß Bayerns für ein Verbot von Killerspielen \"mit dem Rasenmäher\" weltfremd.

Der nordrhein-westfälische Familienminister Armin Laschet (CDU) räumte bei der Debatte über den entsprechenden, von Niedersachsen unterstützten Gesetzesentwurfs Bayerns laut dpa zwar ein, dass es ein Vollzugsdefizit bei den bestehenden, bereits im April 2003 deutlich verschärften Gesetzen zum Jugendmedienschutz gebe. Von der Wissenschaft werde ein Zusammenhang zwischen den Amokläufen von Jugendlichen etwa in Emsdetten oder Erfurt mit dem Konsum von Killerspielen aber ganz überwiegend bestritten.\nAnzeige\nLaschet hatte Anfang der Woche gemeinsam mit Bundesfamilienministerin Ursula von der Leyen als Alternative ein \"Sofortprogramm\" einschließlich einer eigenen Gesetzesinitiative angekündigt, wonach über \"Gewalt verherrlichende\" hinaus \"Gewalt beherrschte\" Spiele mit Mord- und Gemetzelszenen für Jugendliche verboten werden sollen. Die Verkäufer von Computerspielen sollen zudem stärker als bisher durch deutlichere Jugendschutz-Hinweise auf Videos und DVDs zur Einhaltung der Verkaufsverbote angehalten werden. Bayerns Familienministerin Christa Stewens (CSU) bezeichnete diesen Vorschlag als \"Scheinlösung\" und \"stumpfes Schwert\". Sie bestand darauf, dass unter anderem auch die Herstellung und Verbreitung virtueller Killerspiele unter Strafe gestellt werden müssten. Vertreter der Bundesregierung meldeten dazu verfassungsrechtliche Bedenken an.\nDie Länderchefs überwiesen den bayerischen Gesetzesentwurf zur weiteren Beratung in die Fachausschüsse. Dort gibt es nach Informationen von heise online viele Stimmen, die eine Vertagung der Initiative fordern. Demnach soll zumindest die für Herbst angekündigte Evaluation der Jugendschutzgesetzgebung durch das Bundesfamilienministerium abgewartet werden. In einer Stellungnahme von Rheinland-Pfalz heißt es, dass noch kein Fall bekannt geworden sei, in dem einer Staatsanwaltschaft die Basis des bestehenden Paragraphen 131 Strafgesetzbuch (StGB) nicht für ein eventuelles Verbotsverfahren ausgereicht hätte. Generell solle die staatsanwaltschaftliche und gerichtliche Praxis im Umgang mit \"Killerspielen\" genauer untersucht werden.\nDer innenpolitische Sprecher der CDU/CSU-Bundestagsfraktion, Hans-Peter Uhl, hält Korrekturen beim Jugendmedienschutz für notwendig, spricht aber nicht konkret von zusätzlichen Verboten. Derzeit werden dem Innenexperten zufolge \"extrem gewaltgeneigte Spiele in der Praxis nur mit einer Altersbeschränkung versehen und nicht gänzlich indiziert\". Ein strafrechtliches Vorgehen fehle bislang völlig. Dieser Missstand müsse beseitigt werden, wobei sich Rechtsverschärfungen als nötig erweisen könnten. Zuvor sei jedoch die Frage zu klären, \"warum das geltende Recht nicht ausgeschöpft wurde\". Auch Kompetenzrangeleien kommen Uhl zufolge dem Jugendschutz nicht zugute: \"Wenn die Unterhaltungssoftware Selbstkontrolle (USK) eine Alterskennzeichnung vergibt, wird die Bundesprüfstelle für jugendgefährdende Medien nicht mehr tätig\", bringt der CSU-Politiker ein Beispiel. Nur letztere könnte jedoch Indizierungen vornehmen und die Ächtung von Killerspielen sowie wirksame Werbe- und Vertriebshindernisse vorantreiben.\nFür \"äußerst fragwürdig\" hält ein neues Verbot Jürgen Kucharczyk, zuständiger Berichterstatter der SPD-Bundestagsfraktion. Die Rufe nach strengeren gesetzlichen Regelungen würden \"die aktuelle Rechtslage verkennen\". Computerspiele würden unter bestimmten Voraussetzungen schon jetzt unter ein \"Herstellungs- und Verbreitungsverbot\" fallen. Ein wirksames Mittel zur Stärkung des Jugendmedienschutzes sei die \"Verbesserung des gesetzlichen Vollzugs\". Verkäufe von Computerspielen an Jugendliche entgegen der vorgegebenen Altersbeschränkung müssten stärker kontrolliert und effizienter bestraft werden. Des Weiteren sei auf eine \"effektive und qualitätsgesicherte Arbeitsweise der USK verbunden mit der Kommunikationsnotwendigkeit zwischen Bund, Ländern und Kommunen\" hinzuarbeiten.\nBei den Grünen kritisieren Grietje Bettin, medienpolitische Sprecherin, und ihr für Jugendpolitik zuständiger Kollege, Kai Gehring, den von Bayern vorgelegten Gesetzesentwurf als \"Sammelsurium von unausgegorenen Verbotsvorschlägen und reiner Aktionismus.\" Durch unklare Begriffe werde der Willkür Tür und Tor geöffnet. Anstatt sinnvolle Vorschläge zur effektiveren Umsetzung bestehender Jugendschutzregelungen und zur Gewaltprävention zu machen, werde mit \"Verbalradikalismus\" politische Aktivität vorgegaukelt. Die Länder fordern die beiden Politiker auf, dem bayerischen Vorschlag eine klare Absage zu erteilen. Aber auch im \"Sofortprogramm\" aus dem Bundesfamilienministerium werde mit schwammigen Wortschöpfungen wie \"gewaltbeherrschte Trägermedien\" heiße Luft produziert. Eine Definition für diesen Begriff habe das Ministerium nicht vorlegen können.\nDer rechtspolitische Sprecher der Grünen, Jerzy Montag, erinnerte daran, dass aus gutem Grund nicht jede Darstellung von Gewalttätigkeiten gegen Menschen oder menschenähnliche Wesen zum Eingreifen der Polizei und Staatsanwaltschaft führe. Nur wenn die Brutalitäten unmenschlich dargestellt würden und durch die Art der Darbietung die Gewalttätigkeit verherrlicht oder verharmlost oder die Menschenwürde verletzt werde, spreche so viel unabweisbar für ein strafrechtliches Verbot, dass dahinter Grundrechte Dritter zurückzustehen hätten. Das geltende Strafrecht berücksichtigt diese verfassungsrechtlichen Grenzen und ermöglicht schon heute, auf Totschlag und Mord in Serie ausgerichtete Computerspiele aus dem Verkehr zu ziehen. Stoiber & Co. wollten dagegen noch eins draufsetzen und auch gleich \"Indianer- und Ritterspiele\" mit Bußgeld belegen. Zudem solle Erziehungsberechtigten das Recht entzogen werden, sich mit ihren Kindern über fragwürdige Computerprogramme und anrüchige Schriften auseinanderzusetzen. Verantwortliche Rechtspolitik sehe anders aus.\nScharfe Proteste gegen die bayerische Initiative kommen auch von den Liberalen. Der Entwurf sei \"nicht durchdacht und wenig hilfreich\", meint die jugendpolitische Sprecherin der FDP-Bundestagsfraktion, Miriam Gruss. Alles was verboten sei, werde erst recht interessant. Auch laut dem Medienpolitikexperten der FDP, Christoph Waitz, fehlt es für den Verbotsantrag \"an der schlüssigen Darlegung des Zusammenhangs zwischen der Planung und Durchführung der Bluttaten und der Nutzung von Gewaltspielen\". Es bleibe unklar, \"inwieweit das Spielen dieser Spiele die Taten vorbereitet oder zumindest die Durchführung erleichtert haben könnte\".\nSiehe zu dem Thema auch:\n) / ( pmz /c't)", "url": "http://www.heise.de/newsticker/meldung/85440", "archive_url": "https://web.archive.org/web/20070218074322/http://www.heise.de/newsticker/meldung/85440" }, { "language": "de", "title": "Das Ende des Pornofilm-Verleihs", "text": "Von Tobias Lill\nDem Bundesrat liegt ein Gesetzentwurf Bayerns vor, mit dem der Jugendschutz im Bezug auf \"Killerspiele\" verbessert werden soll. Doch der Antrag hat bisher nicht bemerkte Nebenwirkungen: Er käme einem Pornoverbot in Videotheken gleich.\nDer Gesetzesentwurf der bayerischen Staatsregierung zur \"Verbesserung des Jugendschutzes\" dürfte für heftige Diskussionen sorgen: Das bayerische Sozialministerium baute darin - von der Öffentlichkeit bislang unbemerkt - ein Verleih-Verbot für indizierte Filme und Computerspiele ein. Der Passus des Artikels 15 des Jugendschutzgesetzes, laut dem der Verleih von indizierten \"Trägermedien\" zumindest \"in Ladengeschäften, die Kindern und Jugendlichen nicht zugänglich sind\" erlaubt ist, soll ersatzlos gestrichen werden. Als Folge müssten die Videotheken neben Horror-Filmen wie \"Freitag der 13.\" oder \"Freddie Krüger 2\" auch sämtliche Pornofilme aus ihrem Sortiment verbannen.\nPornofilm: Bald nur noch im Verkauf unter der Ladentheke?\nDenn laut dem Jugendschutzgesetz sind Pornos generell indiziert. \"Sexfilme sind schwer jugendgefährdende Medien und damit auch ohne eine eigene Überprüfung durch uns automatisch indiziert\", sagt eine Sprecherin der \"Bundesprüfstelle für jugendgefährdende Medien\" (BPjM) auf Anfrage von SPIEGEL ONLINE. Nur der Verkauf indizierter Filme in separaten Räumen, sowie der unentgeltliche Verleih wäre noch erlaubt. Die Werbung für solche Produkte ist ohnehin untersagt.\nSeitens der bayerischen Staatsregierung hofft man, mit dem Gesetz besser kontrollieren zu können, in wessen Hände indizierte Filme gelangen. \"Es ist durchaus gängige Praxis, dass sich erwachsene beziehungsweise heranwachsende Personen mit billigen Mietkassetten beziehungsweise DVDs versorgen und diese an ihre noch nicht volljährigen Freunde weitergeben oder ihnen vorführen\", heißt es in der Antragsbegründung. Dies habe dazu geführt, \"dass heute schon viele Kinder und Jugendliche mit Porno-, Horror- und Gewaltdarstellungen konfrontiert werden\". Ein höherer Kaufpreis sei \"zumindest eine gewisse Hürde für den Erwerb jugendgefährdender und indizierter Medien\".\n\"Jugendschutz wichtiger als Kommerz\"\nDas Verleih-Verbot dürfte nicht wenige deutsche Männer betreffen. Die Bundesrepublik ist der zweitgrößte Pornomarkt der Welt, direkt nach den USA. Mehr als 1000 neue Pornofilme erscheinen in Deutschland pro Monat auf DVD, der jährliche Umsatz wird etwa 800 Millionen Euro jährlich geschätzt. Für manchen Porno-Fan könnte es in Zukunft richtig teuer werden: Bis zu 30 Euro für die Kauf-DVD statt wie bislang im Schnitt ein bis drei Euro Ausleihgebühr für einen Tag.\nFür die Videothekenbetreiber würde der bayerische Gesetzesentwurf in jedem Fall erhebliche Umsatzeinbrüche bedeuten: \"Viele Betreiber müssten dann wohl ihren Laden zusperren, da sie auf den Umsatz indizierter Filme angewiesen sind\", sagt Heidi Grün, Chefin einer großen Münchner Videothek. Sie fürchtet, dass sowohl Erwachsene als auch Jugendliche, falls das Gesetz beschlossen wird, \"in Zukunft einfach mehr Filme und Spiele illegal aus dem Internet ziehen\".\nBeim Sozialministerium war man sich der Tragweite des Gesetzesentwurfs zunächst offenbar gar nicht bewusst. \"Das Verleihverbot wird nur einen ganz kleinen Teil besonders heftiger Pornos betreffen. Da ist der Gina-Wild-Film nicht dabei\", erklärte eine Sprecherin des Arbeits-, Sozial- und Familienministeriums noch am Montagnachmittag auf Anfrage von SPIEGEL ONLINE. Erst heute räumte das Ministerium ein, dass ein Verleih-Verbot neben Gewaltfilmen auch sämtliche Porno-Filme betreffe.\nFür die Befürchtung, dass zu Lasten der Videotheken und Filmindustrie in Zukunft mehr Raubkopien aus dem Internet gezogen werden, hat das Ministerium kein Verständnis. \"Für mich hat der Jugendschutz ganz klar Vorrang vor dem Kommerz. Wir brauchen klare, insbesondere leicht überprüfbare Regeln, um Jugendliche vor jugendgefährdenden Filmen zu schützen\", so die bayerische Familienministerin Christa Stewens gegenüber SPIEGEL ONLINE.\nDer Vorschlag, das Verleih- und Vermietverbot auf alle indizierten Filme auszudehnen, sei \"eine solche leicht überprüfbare Regelung\". Videotheken müssten sich überlegen, womit sie Geschäfte machten. \"Es ist meines Erachtens nicht zu viel, auch von Videoverleihern eine ethische Fundierung zu verlangen\", so Stewens.", "url": "http://www.spiegel.de/netzwelt/web/0,1518,466149,00.html", "archive_url": "https://web.archive.org/web/20070216004735/http://www.spiegel.de/netzwelt/web/0%2C1518%2C466149%2C00.html" } ]

Fue Burgos el encargado de dar la peor noticia y desatar el desconsuelo de sus familiares, amigos, e incluso de sus fieles seguidoras, algunas en Mendoza y otras apostadas en la puerta de la mansión del cantante en Banfield.\nEn las primeras horas de este lunes, por una complicación en uno de sus bronquios, el cantante había sido intervenido quirúrgicamente en el Hospital Italiano de Mendoza; pocas horas después, volvió al quirófano para que le realizaran un drenaje. La infección generalizada fue lo que sucumbió a Sandro, tras seis operaciones en 45 días.\n\"Olga (Garaventa, esposa de Roberto Sánchez) es la que va a decidir dónde y cómo será velado Sandro\", aseguró a Télam el equipo de prensa del cantante. Según otras fuentes, se realizaría en el salón de los Pasos Perdidos del Congreso de la Nación.\nEl cuerpo de \"El Gitano\", junto a sus familiares, se traslada esta madrugada hacia la Ciudad de Buenos Aires a bordo de un avión que partirá desde Mendoza, según informaron las autoridades del Ministerio de Salud provincial.\nOlga confesó, la noche del lunes, que con el fallecimiento de su marido \"se ha muerto un rey\" y sostuvo que el ídolo \"murió como un rey\". Las sensaciones de la compañera del cantante fueron reveladas por Mirtha Legrand a América Noticias.\nLegrand contó que acababa de hablar telefónicamente con Olga y que la mujer le contó algunos dolorosos sentimientos que la embargaban. La diva de los almuerzos relató que Olga le dijo que el domingo le preguntó a Sandro: \"¿Roberto, vos te querés ir de gira?\"; a lo que su marido contestó mirándola \"con desesperación, como diciendo no puedo más, no puedo más\".\nLAS ÚLTIMAS HORAS. Hasta este domingo, \"El Gitano\" había logrado respirar por sus propios medios por espacio de diez minutos cada media hora, y permanecía con la ingesta de alimentos semisólidos y los ejercicios kinesiológicos que necesitaba para recuperar fuerza muscular.\nEsta madrugada, el estado de salud del cantante había vuelto a ser preocupante, aunque los médicos ya habían advertido que su situación era de \"alerta permanente\" y su evolución \"lenta\". El peor desenlace se vio venir cuando Perrone y Burgos advirtieron esta tarde que la situación \"podía no ser reversible\".\nSegún detalló Perrone, \"mala irrigación, desnutrición del paciente, asistencia respiratoria prolongada y la bacteria que trajo desde Buenos Aires\" fueron los factores que agravaron su cuadro. La mala irrigación, explicó, obedeció a \"que el árbol bronquial viene irrigado en dos partes: desde los brazos bronquiales y desde la tráquea, pero al ser un órgano donado, la parte que viene de la tráquea del donante no la recibe, y también es insuficiente la parte que recibe del árbol bronquial, lo que hace que se produzcan estas lesiones del tipo fístula o agujerito\".\nHASTA SIEMPRE, GITANO. Nació el 19 de agosto de 1945 en la Ciudad de Buenos Aires, pero se crió en Valentín Alsina. Vivió siempre en los suburbios industriales del sur de la Ciudad de Buenos Aires. Su abuelo paterno pertenecía al pueblo Rom y Sandro recogió esa herencia asumiendo el sobrenombre de Gitano.\nFue uno de los fundadores del rock en español. Publicó 52 álbumes originales y vendió 8 millones de copias, aunque hay fuentes que elevan hasta 22 millones. Su tema \"Tengo\" ha sido considerado el Nº 15 entre los 100 mejores temas de la historia del rock argentino, por la cadena MTV y la revista Rolling Stone.\nRealizó 16 películas y fue el primer latino en cantar en el Madison Square Garden.

Popular, sensual, carismático, romántico, misterioso, se ganó el corazón de las \"nenas\" de toda América, que lo siguieron desde sus comienzos en la música a comienzos de los sesenta.\nDesde temprano los médicos que lo atendían hicieron saber que era un día muy difícil para la salud del Gitano. Durante la madrugada lo habían tenido que operar nuevamente por la aparición de una fístula en el bronquio izquierdo. Y por la tarde, durante una conferencia de prensa, remarcaron que sufría un shock séptico y el cuadro era de mucha gravedad. Por la noche anunciaron la triste noticia: Sandro había muerto a las 20.40.\nRoberto Sánchez, el único hijo de Vicente Sánchez e Irma Nydia Ocampo, nació en la Maternidad Sardá el 19 de agosto de 1945 y se crió en Valentín Alsina. Editó 52 discos, vendió 8 millones de copias, compuso éxitos eternos como \"Dame fuego\", \"Rosa, Rosa\", \"Quiero llenarme de ti\", \"Penumbras\", \"Ese es mi amigo el puma\", \"Tengo\", \"Trigal\", \"Una muchacha y una guitarra\" entre otros tantos, realizó 16 películas, cantó en el Madison Square Garden, ganó el Grammy Latino a la Trayectoria (2005).\nSu primera actuación le cambió la vida. Fue en un acto por el Día de la Independencia el 9 de julio de 1957 cuando por pedido de su maestra realizó su conocida imitación de Elvis Presley, por quien sentía una fuerte atracción. Un año después dejaría la escuela para ayudar a sus padres. Fue así que trabajó de repartidor en una carnicería, de changarín y como tornero.\nSu comienzo con la música fue junto a su amigo Enrique Irigoytía con quién formó el dúo Los Caribes. \"Yo me nutrí con el rock. Gracias al rock dejé las calles, las navajas y las cadenas, y agarré una guitarra. Dejé la campera de cuero y las pandillas. El rock me salvó. Me salvó de que fuera quizás un delincuente\", diría el propio Gitano sobre sus comienzos años más tarde\nLa explosión se dio en los sesenta, cuando adoptó el nombre artístico que lo acompañó hasta el final de sus días, el mismo que sus padres habían querido ponerle pero no los dejaron: Sandro. \"Comiendo rosquitas calientes en el Puente Alsina\" fue el primer simple que grabó como Sandro junto a su primera banda, Los Caniches de Oklahoma, que luego se convertirían en Los de Fuego y hacían versiones en español de temas de los Beatles, Elvis y los Rolling Stones entre otros.\nSu participación en los \"Sábados circulares\" de Pipo Mancera terminaron de impulsar su popularidad. Junto con otros amigos rockeros, alquilaron el mítico local \"La Cueva\", donde hacían sus presentaciones.\nCon el tiempo Sandro fue cambiando su estilo adoptando un perfil más popular de baladas románticas y boleros que revolucionó la época. Las mujeres siempre murieron por su desenfreno. Con el tiempo sus discos comenzaron a venderse por toda América y en los Estados Unidos. A partir de entonces llenar estadios, romper récords, visitas masivas para su cumpleaños y todo tipo de cuestiones sorprendentes fueron parte de su carrera.\nFue en 1998 cuando se descubrió la enfermedad que sufría a causa del cigarrillo y lo alejó de los escenarios de forma temporal. Once años después, esa enfermedad acabó con su vida.

Image Credit: ESO/VLT\nORION Telescope AstroView™ 90mm EQ Refractor\nYou won't have any trouble gathering enough light for bright, crisp views of deep-sky objects, the Moon, and planets. Two eyepieces included!\nEXCLUSIVE: First Confirmed Picture of a Planet Beyond the Solar System\nBy Robert Roy Britt\nSenior Science Writer\nposted: 01 April 2005\n09:04 am ET\nEMBARGOED for Updated 7:54 p.m. ET After a few close calls, astronomers have finally obtained the first photograph of a planet beyond our solar system, SPACE.com has learned. And this time they say they're sure. Though some doubt lingers about the mass of the object. The planet is thought to be one to two times as massive as Jupiter, according to the scientists who imaged it. It orbits a star similar to a young version of our Sun. The star, GQ Lupi, has been observed by a team of European astronomers since 1999. They have made three images using the Very Large Telescope (VLT) of the European Southern Observatory (ESO) in Chile. The Hubble Space Telescope and the Japanese Subaru Telescope each contributed an image, too. The work was led by Ralph Neuhaeuser of the Astrophysical Institute & University Observatory (AIU). \"The detection of the faint object near the bright star is certain,\" Neuhaeuser told SPACE.com on Friday. The system is young, so the planet is rather warm, like a bun fresh out of the oven. That warmth made it comparatively easier to see in the glare of its host star compared with more mature planets. Also, the planet is very far from the star -- about 100 times the distance between Earth and the Sun, another factor in helping to separate the light between the two objects. The discovery will be detailed in an upcoming issue of the journal Astronomy & Astrophysics. Neuhaeuser's co-authors include Ph.D. student Markus Mugrauer, who performed the observations, and Guenther Wuchterl. The object appears to be \"the first directly imaged and confirmed companion to a Sun-like star, and as such [would mark] the dawn of a new era in planet detection,\" said Ray Jayawardhana, a University of Toronto researcher who was not involved in the discovery but has seen the scientific paper. Jayawardhana added, though, that some models used to estimate the object's heft show it could be tens of times as massive as Jupiter, in which case it might cross over into the territory, bulk-wise, of a failed type of star known as a brown dwarf. Other recent milestones Over the past decade, astronomers have found about 150 extrasolar planets. The vast majority have only been detected indirectly, by noting wobbles that the planets induce in their stars. Earlier this month, astronomers announced the detection of a planet's infrared light using the Spitzer Space Telescope . But that observation did not involve a photograph. Instead, the system's total light was seen to drop when the planet was eclipsed by the star. Late last year, another European team announced what might have been the first photograph of an extrasolar planet. That planet candidate has yet to be confirmed , however, because it's not yet clear whether it is orbiting the star or if it might be an object in the distant background. And even if it is a planet, it is an unusually large one -- several times the mass of Jupiter -- and it orbits a failed star known as a brown dwarf. The object around GQ Lupi is clearly linked to the star gravitationally. \"The separation between star and planet has not changed from 1999 to 2004, which means that they move together on the sky,\" Neuhaeuser said. \"In our case, we do have a normal plain image showing the bright star and the faint planet a little bit west of the star. The planet is only 156 times fainter than the star, because the planet is still very young and hence still forming, still contracting.\" This object \"appears to pass\" the observational tests \"for being a very low mass companion to its parent star,\" Jayawardhana said. Familiar yet different The picture of GQ Lupi and its planet is exciting to astronomers because the system resembles in some respects our own solar system in its formation years. The planet is about 3,140 degrees Fahrenheit (2000 Kelvin) -- not the sort of place that would be expected to support life. Neuhaeuser's team has also detected water in the planet's atmosphere. The world is expected to be gaseous, like Jupiter. It is about twice the diameter of Jupiter. The mass estimate -- one to two times that of Jupiter -- is \"somewhat uncertain,\" Neuhaeuser said. The planet is three times farther from GQ Lupi than Neptune is from our Sun. \"We should expect that the planet orbits around the star, but at its large separation one orbital period [a year] is roughly 1,200 years, so that orbital motion is not yet detected.\" It's not known why it is so far out. \"It is unlikely, but not impossible, that the planet formed at that large separation, because circumstellar disks around other stars often are that large or even larger,\" Neuhaeuser said. Or perhaps the planet had a close brush with another developing world. The interaction could have thrown the newly discovered planet outward while tossing the other one, which has not been detected, in toward the star. It's also possible the newfound planet has a highly elliptical orbit and is currently near its outer bounds. The star GQ Lupi is part of a star-forming region about 400 light-years away. At 70 percent the mass of the Sun, it is \"quite similar to our Sun,\" Neuhaeuser said. But GQ Lupi is only about 1 million years old. The Sun is middle-aged, at 4.6 billion years old. Nagging doubt \"What's most intriguing about this discovery is that it raises a plethora of new questions regarding the origin of a this object so far out from its parent star,\" Jayawardhana, who is an expert on the disks around young stars from which planets form, said in a email interview. Jayawardhana wonders whether it formed in a protoplanetary disk much closer in, roughly where Jupiter is in our solar system, and then get flung out. Or, perhaps more likely, if it was born almost at the same time as its star, fragmenting out of a contracting protostellar cloud as a brown dwarf companion. \"One way or another, this object must have formed pretty quickly\" given the star's age, he said. Knots of gas and dust have been detected around other young stars in setups that astronomers believe are solar systems in the making . Theorists believe our solar system formed when the Sun's leftovers developed into a thin disk of orbiting material. Rocky planets like Earth formed when chunks stuck together. Astronomers do not agree , however, how gas giants are born. Alan Boss, a planet formation theorist at Carnegie Institution of Washington, called the image \"really exciting.\" But he said there is \"one little nagging doubt\" in that the object's mass is only an estimate. Christophe Dumas, who worked on the European team that announced a possible photo of an extrasolar planet last year, said of the new image: \"There is still a large uncertainty on what the mass of this object is.\" Weighing it precisely would involve noting the gravitational wobble the apparent planet induces on the star, but this object is too far from the star to produce a meaningful wobble. Yet even if the object is four times the mass of Jupiter it would still be considered a planet, Boss said in a telephone interview. \"I think there's a really good chance that this is an historic photo,\" Boss said.

[ { "language": "en", "title": "No one will be left behind in a Tory Britain", "text": "The subject of community cohesion, for understandable reasons, has become prominent in our national conversation over the past few years. But it is a challenge we have faced before: the question of how we live together is as old as humanity itself. Throughout history, there have been periods when Britain has not been entirely comfortable with itself or individual communities within it.\nWho would now question the contribution made by Jewish people to British society - or even talk about there being a conflict between being British and Jewish? And yet, only 50 years ago, this was exactly the debate going on in both the Jewish and non-Jewish communities. More recently, Britain's Irish community was questioning and being questioned about its loyalty to Britain.\nEach time, over time, we have kept our country together by having faith in our institutions and our way of doing things: freedom under the rule of law, a common culture defined by pluralism and tolerance and a distinctively British approach (calm, thoughtful, reasonable) to potentially incendiary issues. The challenge today may have its own specific characteristics, but our approach should be the same. In that context, I am concerned by the direction that the debate on cohesion has taken recently. I believe it is time for a more British approach.\nFirst, we must not fall for the illusion that the problems of community cohesion can be solved simply through top-down, quick-fix state action. State action is certainly necessary today, but it is not sufficient. Second, it must be the right kind of action, expressed in a calm, thoughtful and reasonable way.\nThe doctrine of multiculturalism has undermined our nation's sense of cohesion because it emphasises what divides us rather than what brings us together. It has been manipulated to entrench the right to difference (a divisive concept) at the expense of the right to equal treatment despite difference (a unifying concept). But in seeking to atone for those mistakes, we should not lurch, with the zeal of the convert, into a simplistic promotion of 'Britishness' that is neither in keeping with our traditions, nor likely to bring our communities closer together.\nYes, we need to ensure that every one of our citizens can speak to each other in our national language. Yes, we need to ensure that our children are taught British history properly. And I do think it is important to create more opportunities for celebrating our sense of nationhood. Unlike Labour, we will set out a clear and consistent path to ensure these things actually happen, starting with our policy review which will make specific recommendations this week.\nBut I think we need to go much deeper than this if we are to address the substantial alienation and division that exist in our country today. It's no use behaving like the proverbial English tourist abroad, shouting ever more loudly at the hapless foreigner who doesn't understand what is being said. We can't bully people into feeling British - we have to inspire them.\nA number of the interventions we have seen from ministers recently have spectacularly failed to do that. Instructing Muslim parents to spy on their children. Offending our war heroes with the proposal of a new 'Veteran's Day' when we already have Remembrance Sunday. Suggesting that we put flags on the lawn. These and similar clunking attempts to address the complexities of community cohesion show a serious misunderstanding of the scale of the challenge, and the shape of the solution. Above all, we have seen a dangerous muddling of concerns: community cohesion, the threat of terrorism and the integration of British Muslims.\nPromoting community cohesion should indeed be part of our response to terrorism. But cohesion is not just about terrorism and it is certainly not just about Muslims. Similarly, promoting integration will help protect our security. But too mechanistic a connection between these objectives will make it harder to achieve both, by giving the impression that the state considers all Muslims to be a security risk.\nThis week's report from our policy review, the product of months of dialogue with Britain's diverse communities, will seek to disentangle these threads and point a clear and responsible way forward. There will be no shying away from the tough issues: the influence of those who twist faith into ideology; the cultural attitudes that exclude women from mainstream society; the impact of foreign policy on domestic affairs; and, vitally, the divisive effects of the catastrophic failure of state education in many parts of urban Britain.\nI want the Conservative party to stand for a broad and generous vision of British identity. In a speech in Birmingham tomorrow, I will argue that questions of social cohesion are also questions of social justice and social inclusion. Cohesion is as much about rich and poor, included and left behind as it is about English and Scot or Muslim and Christian. Inspiring as well as demanding loyalty from every citizen will require a new crusade for fairness. A society that consistently denies some of its people the chance to escape poverty, to get on in life, to fulfil their dreams and to feel that their contribution is part of a national effort: such a society will struggle to inspire loyalty, however many citizenship classes it provides.\nFairness will be our most powerful weapon against fragmentation. In America, new immigrants feel part of something from the moment they arrive because they feel they have the opportunity to succeed. It is that belief in equal opportunity that we need in Britain today and it is why the denial of quality education to so many is such a vital part of the cohesion argument.\nThere is no easy short cut. Having tried to impose democracy in Iraq at the point of a gun, we must surely realise that we will never impose cohesion at home with the ping of a press release. There are serious divisions in our country today. Many thousands - maybe millions - feel shut out, under attack. Turning the situation around will require patience. We must be calm, thoughtful and reasonable: that is the British way.\nBuilding cohesion is a social responsibility. Government must enforce the rules of the road - speaking English, teaching history, upholding and celebrating the symbols of nationhood - and we will be absolutely clear about what needs to be done. If the government brings forward these measures, they will have our full support.\nBut this is about much more than government and politics. We must each do all we can to make this a fairer and more just society - helping others, creating opportunity and ensuring that no one is excluded from it.", "url": "http://observer.guardian.co.uk/comment/story/0,,2000321,00.html", "archive_url": "https://web.archive.org/web/20070131080238/http://observer.guardian.co.uk/comment/story/0,,2000321,00.html" }, { "language": "en", "title": "Cameron blast at crude bullying on 'British values'", "text": "David Cameron today dramatically shifts the terms of the debate over Britishness by demanding a new language of cohesiveness on the controversial issues of faith, race and nationhood.\nIn a ground-breaking article in today's Observer, the Tory leader lambasts the government for its aggressive approach, arguing: 'It's no use behaving like the proverbial English tourist abroad, shouting ever more loudly at the hapless foreigner who doesn't understand what is being said. We can't bully people into feeling British - we have to inspire them.\nThe call for a 'calm, thoughtful, reasonable' approach to defining Britishness rather than hectoring ethnic minorities comes ahead of a speech today in which Cameron will nonetheless warn that such a stance must not mean tolerating injustices, such as Muslim women being prevented from studying or working outside the home.\nIn today's article Cameron attacks 'clunking' government ideas to shore up national identity, such as urging Britons to fly the flag at home, and the 'dangerous muddling' of community cohesion with the threat from terrorism. New ways should be found to celebrate 'our sense of nationhood' instead, he adds, although it is not clear what these might be.\n'A number of the interventions we have seen from ministers recently have spectacularly failed to do that. Instructing Muslim parents to spy on their children. Offending our war heroes with the proposal of a new \"Veterans' Day\" when we already have Remembrance Sunday. Suggesting that we put flags on the lawn.'\nAnd while promoting cohesion could be part of responding to the war on terror, it was 'not just about terrorism and certainly not just about Muslims', he added.\nHis argument will be underlined by a report this week from the party's policy commission on national security calling for new thinking on community cohesion. It will highlight the removal of teenage Asian girls from school and question whether some Muslim parents are supporting their daughters' desire for education, as well as calling for forced marriage to be made a criminal offence. In his speech in Birmingham, Cameron will argue that the oppression of women in some communities is a cultural rather than religious phenomenon. Tories must 'be bold, and not hide behind the screen of cultural sensitivity, to say publicly that no woman should be denied rights which both their religion and their country, Britain, support'.\nSayeeda Warsi, Tory vice-chairman and adviser to Cameron, said she was struck by the way some female Muslims were held back while she was out canvassing at the last election. 'The number of women I came across who said they wanted to go to university but their parents didn't want them to, who wanted to get a job but were not allowed, who were not allowed to vote freely because the men in their family got postal votes... I came away feeling that here was an enormous resource wasted,' she said. 'This way of life is not because of the faith, it is cultural interpretations of it. David feels we can't be culturally sensitive to issues which are fundamentally wrong.'\nCameron's decoupling of cohesion from national security issues was welcomed by the Muslim Council of Great Britain. However, the Commission for Human Rights and Equality said it would reserve judgment for the full report.", "url": "http://observer.guardian.co.uk/politics/story/0,,2000512,00.html", "archive_url": "https://web.archive.org/web/20070207212209/http://observer.guardian.co.uk/politics/story/0,,2000512,00.html" }, { "language": "en", "title": "The Sunday Times", "text": "Cash for access: Lords exposed Jonathan Calvert and Heidi Blake PEERS have been caught offering to ask parliamentary questions, lobby ministers and host events on...\nSexterminate!

Mi-mai, le premier actionnaire de Vivendi, maison mère de la chaîne cryptée, a téléphoné au directeur général de Canal+, Rodolphe Belmer (limogé depuis), et aurait invoqué ses liens avec Michel Lucas, le patron du Crédit Mutuel, ajoute le site.\nDans le reportage, initialement destiné à l’émission « Spécial Investigation », la banque est accusée de favoriser des pratiques d’évasion fiscale de ses clients.\nContacté, Vivendi ne fait pas de commentaire.\n« C’est un problème citoyen »\n« L’intervention de Vincent Bolloré pour empêcher la diffusion du documentaire que nous préparions ne fait pas de doute », affirme au Monde Jean-Pierre Canet, qui a supervisé le sujet en tant rédacteur en chef de KM, la société dirigée par Renaud Le Van Kim qui produisait aussi le « Grand Journal » sur Canal+, en tout cas jusqu’à ce que Vincent Bolloré lui retire ce dossier en juillet.\n« Cette affaire pose une question plus vaste : la concentration dans les télévisions privées est-elle un risque pour l’investigation ? Si l’enquête n’est possible que sur le service public, cela réduit beaucoup les choses », pense M. Canet, qui a auparavant été rédacteur en chef deux ans de « Cash Investigation », l’émission d’Elise Lucet sur France 2, produite par l’agence Premières Lignes. « C’est un problème citoyen, d’autant plus que Canal+ a construit sa réputation sur l’indépendance », rajoute le journaliste, qui publie une tribune jeudi. Censuré sur Canal+, le documentaire a, selon Mediapart, trouvé une diffusion sur France 3 pour cet automne.\nM. Bolloré est proche de M. Lucas, qui fait comme lui partie du Club des trente, un rassemblement de patrons bretons, pointe Mediapart, qui ajoute que Vivendi a choisi le Crédit mutuel comme banque conseil dans le récent rachat de la société d’édition de Canal+.\nLire notre enquête : « Guignols », « Grand journal », coûts : Bolloré secoue Canal+\nLa reprise en main musclée de Canal+ par Bolloré\nSi les faits sont antérieurs, cette polémique s’ajoute à celle qui est née de la reprise en main musclée de Canal+ par Vincent Bolloré. L’industriel, qui a fait partir le numéro 2, est en train de modeler un nouvel organigramme pour septembre et s’est intéressé personnellement à la grille de rentrée. Le « Grand Journal » a été arrêté dans sa forme actuelle et « Les Guignols » sont passés en crypté. Les auteurs historiques de l’émission ont été également été remerciés. Des rumeurs donnent aussi sur le départ des cadres comme Ara Aprikian, patron des antennes gratuites, ou Alice Holzman, responsable des abonnements en France.\n« Une émission de télévision ne mérite pas qu’on descende dans la rue et Vincent Bolloré est maître chez lui, mais les méthodes sont brutales et socialement violentes », dénonce M. Canet, qui fait partie de l’équipe de KM où l’annonce début juillet de l’arrêt du « Grand journal » a fait l’effet d’une douche froide, car l’émission avait été confirmée pour la saison prochaine. « J’ai travaillé au “Grand Journal”, on a appris la fin par la presse, merci Bolloré », a ironisé une intermittente qui a travaillé huit ans pour le talk-show animé par Michel Denisot puis Antoine de Caunes, dans une tribune anonyme publiée sur le site participatif de L’Obs, Le Plus.\nAmbiance de « remaniement ministériel »\nEn interne, un salarié de Canal+ confiait ces derniers jours que l’ambiance ressemblait à celle entourant un « remaniement ministériel », en allusion aux réorganisations en cours. Le discours stratégique du nouveau directeur général Maxime Saada en a rassuré certains et le chamboulement d’organigramme a été annoncé à l’avance par Vincent Bolloré, relativise-t-il toutefois. Tout en reconnaissant que les rumeurs sur les noms de cadres qui se verraient remerciés « bouleversent » les équipes.", "url": "http://www.lemonde.fr/economie/article/2015/07/29/canal-bollore-accuse-d-avoir-censure-un-documentaire-sur-le-credit-mutuel_4703807_3234.html", "archive_url": "https://web.archive.org/web/20150813105957/http://www.lemonde.fr/economie/article/2015/07/29/canal-bollore-accuse-d-avoir-censure-un-documentaire-sur-le-credit-mutuel_4703807_3234.html" } ]

Lord Adonis said Justice Secretary Jack Straw would outline full plans soon, ahead of a firm commitment to reform in the Labour election manifesto. He said being fully elected was \"the only way that a legislative assembly can be legitimate in the modern world\". The Tories have said they want to see a \"mainly elected\" second chamber. The Lib Dems also say they want to replace the current House of Lords with a fully elected second chamber. 'Workmanlike assembly' The Sunday Telegraph claims to have seen leaked proposals to create a new chamber in which all members are UK residents and fully domiciled for tax purposes. That requirement follows the controversy surrounding Lord Ashcroft, Tory donor and deputy party chairman, who has admitted being a \"non-dom\". Members would also be subject to a US-style \"recall ballot\" which would disqualify them for incompetence, and would be directly elected through a form of proportional representation to serve fixed terms of up to 15 years, the paper reported. They'll be firm proposals and they'll build on the big changes we've already made to the House of Lords\nTransport Secretary Lord Adonis Lord Adonis said the removal of most of the hereditary peers from the House of Lords under Labour in 1999 had \"fundamentally transformed\" the chamber into a \"workmanlike assembly\". But he said more reform was still needed and would be outlined soon. \"I think the time has now come to make it legitimate in the only way that a legislative assembly can be legitimate in the modern world, which is to be elected, and Jack Straw will be setting out full proposals very shortly,\" he said. \"There will be firm proposals in our manifesto for an elected House of Lords. \"Of course, you couldn't introduce that reform until after the election, but they'll be firm proposals and they'll build on the big changes we've already made to the House of Lords.\" Currently, the Lords is made up of 746 peers, including 92 hereditary peers who were saved in the 1999 cull. At present, it is not possible for members to be expelled. Critics of further reform warn that electing the Lords would lead to a power struggle with the House of Commons. But Lord Adonis said: \"We can do it in this country as most democracies do it: we'd have two chambers, both of which are elected but with the government accountable to the first chamber.\"\nBookmark with: Delicious\nDigg\nreddit\nFacebook\nStumbleUpon What are these?

The justice secretary, Jack Straw, will publish his proposals in a draft bill before the election and these will feature prominently in Labour's manifesto. Labour strategists hope that it will create a new dividing line with the Tories, allowing them to portray the Conservatives as being anti-reform.\nThe second chamber would no longer be known as the House of Lords, a name which has been in use since the 14th century. Members would face elections every three terms and earn a salary of around £65,000. They would also be subject to a US-style \"recall ballot\" which would disqualify them for incompetence.\nThe plans are designed to make parliament and legislative scrutiny more accountable, but they predate the recent rows about privilege in the Lords centring on the revelations of the Tory donor Lord Ashcroft's non-dom tax status.\nAdonis told the BBC's Marr show: \"The time has now come to make it legitimate in the only way that a legislative assembly can be legitimate in the modern world, which is to be elected. Of course you couldn't introduce that reform until after the election, but there'll be firm proposals.

Under the new plans, which were leaked to the Sunday Telegraph, they would all be removed.\nIt is understood the main sticking points still to be overcome are over what to do about the 25 bishops in the Lords, whose removal would trigger a row with the church, and how to manage the transition to the new system.\nA spokesman for the Conservatives said that Labour had had 13 years to reform the Lords, and to launch proposals now was playing politics with the electoral system. \" We will work to build a consensus for a mainly elected second chamber to replace the House of Lords,\" he said.", "url": "http://www.guardian.co.uk/politics/2010/mar/14/labour-lords-elected-second-chamber", "archive_url": "https://web.archive.org/web/20100317153104/http://www.guardian.co.uk/politics/2010/mar/14/labour-lords-elected-second-chamber" } ]

Elle estime que le gouvernement a mal posé la question de départ, en refusant de reconnaître et d'évaluer le sous-financement des universités avant de se lancer dans un exercice de consultation.En point de presse, le chef de la CAQ, François Legault, a dit qu'en 2010, le sous-financement des universités québécoises était évalué à 500 millions $, une donnée de base que le gouvernement semble vouloir ignorer.«Si on ne reconnaît pas le sous-financement, ce sera le sommet des illusions», a-t-il dit craindre, plaidant pour que les universités québécoises demeurent compétitives avec celles des autres provinces.Mais contrairement aux libéraux, les caquistes affirment d'emblée qu'ils vont participer aux travaux et chercher à y défendre leurs idées.", "url": "http://www.ledevoir.com/societe/education/363482/sommet-sur-l-enseignement-rebatir-des-ponts-et-definir-l-avenir-de-l-education", "archive_url": "https://web.archive.org/web/20210319183920/https://www.ledevoir.com/societe/education/363482/sommet-sur-l-enseignement-rebatir-des-ponts-et-definir-l-avenir-de-l-education" } ]

The Prime Minister admitted it was “obvious we do not agree on every aspect of European policy” after warm but inconclusive talks with his German counterpart following a hostile week of mud-slinging between British and German politicians. The gaping differences between the two leaders were clear from Mr Cameron’s continual calls for “decisive” eurozone action, contrasted with Mrs Merkel’s insistence upon a “step-by-step” approach. Mr Cameron had even looked up the German for “big bazooka” (Superwaffe) to press home his demand for clear action, only to be told by a German official he had got the wrong word. The two leaders remained at loggerheads on proposals for a European financial transaction tax, which Mrs Merkel fervently wants but Mr Cameron fears would harm the City. They were also poles apart on the role the European Central Bank should play in rescuing eurozone nations, and on the need to amend the EU treaty. There were plenty of smiles and pleasantries at the leaders’ press conference and pledges of friendship. But the only common ground was on broad commitments to work together to increase growth and competitiveness, and a shared swipe at the European Parliament for demanding a big EU budget rise. “It is obviou", "url": "http://www.timesonline.co.uk/article/0,,26909-2188263,00.html", "archive_url": "https://web.archive.org/web/20111118164325/http://www.thetimes.co.uk/tto/news/" } ]

Instead of fulfilling his end of the bargain, Klein sometimes combined their contributions with money raised for other properties or to finance REI business expenses such as paying off mortgage debt or repaying investors who were cashing out, Valentin said. Klein also used the money to build a new home for himself in Colts Neck, he said.\nThe prosecutor said there were more than 130 investors from several states, including New Jersey and Florida.\n\"Klein's actions as revealed by the investigation mirror those of the classic Ponzi scheme, destined to collapse when promises of abnormally high short-term returns eventually fail to attract a sufficient number of new investors to keep the scheme alive,\" Valentin said.\nKlein's attorney, Robert Weir of Red Bank, disputed the allegations and said his client only pulled his own monetary investments from the company.\n\"This is not a Ponzi scheme. Mr. Klein was a very successful real estate investor for 10 years,\" Weir said.\nWeir said the investments started to sour when the economy declined. He said Klein hired a receiver and tried return the investors' money.\n\"It's a shame that a business that experienced a turn in the real estate market is now being treated as a criminal problem. That was not Mr. Klein's intent,\" Weir said.\nThe investments were primarily for building rehabilitation projects in Asbury Park and construction of condominium complexes in Florida, Weir said.\nHe said investors sometimes attained an 85-percent return on investment, though that mainly involved properties in Asbury Park, where depressed values had started rising after 2003 when the city started moving on redevelopment.\nIn one case, Weir said, REI purchased property on Bangs Avenue in Asbury Park for $3 million and two years later it had a $6.8 million market value.\nThe state Bureau of Securities sued Klein civilly in April 2006 and Weir said Klein has been working with the agency to reimburse the investors.\n\"He is just devastated by the fact the prosecutor's office said three years after the event 'OK, now we're going to prosecute you,\"' Weir said.\nKlein surrendered this morning to authorities at the Monmouth County Courthouse in Freehold where Superior Court Judge Edward Neafsey set his bail at $75,000.

August 2007\nSagt er Handy, meint Mohammed Ibrahim gleich so Bedeutsames wie Demokratie und Rechtsstaatlichkeit. Nichts, so das Credo des Sudanesen mit britischem Pass, habe Afrika in den letzten zehn Jahren nachhaltiger verändert als die Einführung von Mobilfunknetzen. „Diese Form der Kommunikation ist nicht zu stoppen, sie ist nicht zu kontrollieren, und sie stellt eine echte Machtbasis dar: die Macht des Wissens“, glaubt Ibrahim. „Das ist, als ob jemand in einem dunklen Raum das Licht angemacht hätte. Alles ist für jeden nunmehr sichtbar, und glauben Sie mir: Wer im prallen Licht steht, der benimmt sich.“\nDer Mann am Lichtschalter ist er selber. Der promovierte Elektronikingenieur Mohammed „Mo“ Ibrahim ist der unbestrittene Mobilfunkpionier Afrikas. Als Ibrahim 1998 seine Firma Celtel gründete, hätte niemand geglaubt, dass etwas vermeintlich Kostspieliges wie ein Handy auf dem Hungerkontinent Erfolg haben könnte. Heute gilt Celtel als die erfolgreichste afrikanische Firma überhaupt. Das Unternehmen ist in 15 afrikanischen Ländern aktiv, beschäftigt 5000 Personen und realisiert einen Reingewinn von 150 Millionen Dollar bei einem Umsatz von rund 620 Millionen Dollar. Der durchschnittliche Umsatz pro Kunde liegt bei 21 Dollar im Monat und damit auf dem Niveau, das Mobilfunker in Osteuropa erwirtschaften. Und das alles auf einem Kontinent, an den niemand glauben mag. Dabei füllt der Mobilfunk in Afrika jene Lücke, die der Zusammenbruch der staatlichen Festnetze hinterlassen hatte. Auf einem Kontinent ohne Infrastruktur brachte er die Menschen wieder zusammen, eröffnete ihnen neue Geschäftsperspektiven und vor allem: sorgte für einen radikalen Wechsel im politischen Miteinander. Polizeiliche Übergriffe, von denen man vor Celtel bestenfalls nach Wochen erfuhr, werden heute in Echtzeit durch die Welt telefoniert. Oppositionelle machen heute per Handy Wahlkampf aus der Gefängniszelle heraus.\nEr füllte die Lücke, die durch den Zusammenbruch der Festnetze entstand\nGanz nebenbei ist Celtel ein glänzendes Geschäft. 3,4 Milliarden Dollar zahlten kuweitische Investoren vor zwei Jahren für das Unternehmen. Damit wurde nicht nur Ibrahim, der 25 Prozent hielt, zum vielfachen Millionär, sondern auch rund 100 seiner mehrheitlich afrikanischen Angestellten zu vermögenden Leuten, weil Mo seinen Mitarbeitern zwar stets viel abverlangt hat, sie aber gleichzeitig an der Firma beteiligte.\nZehn Jahre lang 500.000 Dollar\nSeither ist der 62 Jahre alte Unternehmer zu anderen, ungleich gefährlicheren, weil politischen Ufern unterwegs. Ibrahim hat nämlich einen beträchtlichen Teil seines Vermögens in seine „Mo Ibrahim Stiftung“ investiert, die künftig eine Art Nobelpreis für Afrika verleihen wird. Nur viel, viel lukrativer. Dem afrikanischen Staatschef, der sein Land nachweislich sozial und wirtschaftlich vorangebracht hat, der Meinungsfreiheit ebenso re-spektiert wie die Verfassung und der in Würden abgedankt hat, dem schenkt die Stiftung 500.000 Dollar jährlich über die kommenden zehn Jahre, und danach erhält er jedes weitere Jahr 200.000 Dollar bis an sein Lebensende. Zusätzlich kann er weitere 200.000 Dollar im Jahr für persönliche Studien ausgeben. Zudem wird die Stiftung, in deren Rat der ehemalige Generalsekretär der Vereinten Nationen Kofi Annan und die ehemalige irische Ministerpräsidentin Mary Robinson sitzen, mit Hilfe der Harvard-Universität einen Länderindex erarbeiten, der Afrika in Gewinner und Verlierer katalogisieren wird.\nAuch in ländlichen Regionen sind Mobiltelefone weit verbreitet\nAllein die schiere Summe des ausgelobten Geldes ist geeignet, die Verleihung des Mo-Ibrahim-Preises auf dem Kontinent zum politischen Ereignis des Jahres zu machen. Befinden Mos Harvard-Jünger dann auch noch ein Land wie etwa seine Heimat Sudan als wenig zukunftstauglich, ist wütender Streit programmiert. Finanziert wird der Preis übrigens aus Ibrahims Privatschatulle.\nWarum tut sich einer, der alles erreicht hat, der sich nahezu alles leisten kann und der den Rest seines Lebens eigentlich mit Luxusjachten und ähnlich schönen Dingen verbringen könnte, dieses riskante Spiel an? „Weil ich Nubier bin“, sagt Ibrahim. „Weil Afrika mein Kontinent ist, weil ich Afrika so viel verdanke und weil es Zeit ist, ein Stück davon zurückzugeben.“\nWohlstand statt Ausreden\nMit Millionen aus dem Verkauf seiner Firma Celtel gründete Ibrahim eine Stiftung\nMohammed Ibrahim sucht nicht die Selbstdarstellung, wenngleich die Namensnennung des Preises mehr als nur ein wenig Eitelkeit verrät. Es geht ihm um etwas ganz anderes. „Wir Afrikaner müssen endlich anfangen, uns selbst zu helfen, und nicht immer erwarten, dass andere unsere Probleme lösen“, sagt er. Der Kontinent brauche Jobs und Wohlstand, keine Ausreden mehr. Er könne es nicht mehr hören, ärgert sich Mo, diese ewigen Ausreden afrikanischer Politiker, dieses Vertrösten auf morgen und dieses Beharren auf den „afrikanischen Traditionen“, mit denen alles entschuldigt wird, was auf diesem Kontinent schiefgeht. „Es gibt keine afrikanischen Menschenrechte und keine afrikanische Demokratie. Es gibt universelle Menschenrechte und universelle Standards für Demokratie“, sagt Ibrahim. Und dass sich diese schlichte Wahrheit endlich in Afrika herumspricht, ist ihm einige Millionen Dollar wert.\nMos Engagement für Afrika hat einen ganz profanen privaten Hintergrund. Als junger und ehrgeiziger Ingenieur musste Ibrahim nach Europa gehen, weil sein Ehrgeiz und sein Talent zu groß waren für die dürftigen Chancen, die ein in Korruption, Vetternwirtschaft und schlichter Unfähigkeit gefangenes Afrika ihm bieten konnte. Den folgenden Generationen soll dies nicht mehr passieren.\nFür die er unter anderen den ehemaligen UNO-Generalsekretär Kofi Annan gewinnen konnte\nAngefangen hat Ibrahim nach seinem Studium der Elektrotechnik in Ägypten, wo er als Sohn eines sudanesischen Baumwollhändlers aufwuchs, zunächst bei der staatlichen sudanesischen Telefongesellschaft. Mitte der siebziger Jahre gewann der junge Nachrichtentechniker ein britisches Stipendium und schloss das Studium in Großbritannien 1981 mit einem Doktortitel ab. Bei der British Telecom absolvierte Ibrahim anschließend eine steile Karriere bis hin zum technischen Direktor der neu gegründeten Mobilfunksparte. Das erste private Mobilfunknetz der Welt, das 1985 in London den Betrieb aufnahm, ist übrigens sein Baby.\nDoch schon bald wurden Ibrahim der riesige Konzern und seine starren Strukturen zu langweilig. 1989 gründet Ibrahim die Beratungsfirma MSI, und der Zeitpunkt hätte nicht günstiger sein können. Überall in Europa wurden zu diesem Zeitpunkt Mobilfunklizenzen vergeben an Unternehmen, die häufig gar nicht wussten, wie ein solches Netz aufgebaut wird. MSI lieferte das Know-how, wurde sehr schnell zu einem global agierenden Unternehmen mit rasant steigenden Umsätzen, und Mo fing schon wieder an, sich zu langweilen.\nDen Einsatz vervielfacht\nDie Idee: 5 Millionen Dollar Preisgeld sollen Afrikas Staatschefs erziehen\nAber da war immer noch diese Idee, die Menschen in Afrika, dem Kontinent ohne Infrastruktur, miteinander ins Gespräch zu bringen. 1998 gründete Ibrahim MSI Cellular Investments, es war der Grundstein für sein Mobilfunkengagement in Afrika. Zwei Jahre später verkaufte Ibrahim seine Beratungsfirma MSI für knapp 620 Millionen Dollar an den italienischen Konzern Marconi, aus MSI Cellular Investments wird Celtel, die Firma, die das Unmögliche wagen soll: Afrika Han-dys zu verkaufen. Das gelang ihm so gut, dass diejenigen, die Ibrahim damals Geld geliehen haben, ihren ursprünglichen Einsatz verfünfundzwanzigfachen konnten.\n„Meine Botschaft ist eine ganz einfache“, sagt Ibrahim: „Afrika lohnt sich.“ Voraussetzung aber seien Transparenz, gute Regierungsführung und Verantwortungsbewusstsein auf Seiten der afrikanischen Eliten. Dafür soll sein Preis stehen, sagt Ibrahim. Er habe mit vielen Politikern darüber geredet, erzählt er, und alle hätten seine Idee überzeugend gefunden. Nicht so sehr wegen des Preisgeldes, sondern wegen der Aufmerksamkeit, die so viel Geld erzeugt. „Wenn wir in Anschluss an die erste Preisverleihung eine richtige Debatte über die Art bekommen, wie die Zukunft des Kontinents gestaltet werden soll, haben wir erreicht, was wir wollen“, glaubt Ibrahim. Der erste Kandidat für den Mo-Ibrahim-Preis soll im Oktober bekanntgegeben werden.", "url": "http://berufundchance.fazjob.net/s/Rub2309A3DB4F3C4474B93AA8610A24AE0A/Doc~E2F9AAC4A645640E79E33D7C077CB0939~ATpl~Ecommon~Scontent.html", "archive_url": "https://web.archive.org/web/20071019001015/http://berufundchance.fazjob.net/s/Rub2309A3DB4F3C4474B93AA8610A24AE0A/Doc~E2F9AAC4A645640E79E33D7C077CB0939~ATpl~Ecommon~Scontent.html" } ]

Après les centaines de victimes du défunt Jimmy Savile, ex-animateur vedette de la BBC, et la condamnation la semaine dernière du chanteur pour enfants Rolf Harris, 84 ans, à cinq ans et neuf mois de prison, le gouvernement a dû réagir précipitamment, lundi, à des révélations sur un réseau pédophile impliquant des figures politiques de Westminster. Plus d'une centaine de dossiers liés à ces actes criminels commis entre 1979 et 1999 ont mystérieusement disparu des archives du ministère de l'Intérieur, a-t-on appris ce week-end.\nLa ministre de l'Intérieur, Theresa May, a annoncé devant la Chambre des Communes le lancement de deux enquêtes ouvrant la voie à un vaste déballage public qui pourrait durer plusieurs années. La première enquête sera chargée de faire la lumière sur les défaillances de la police et de la justice dans le traitement d'informations sur des abus sexuels. Très souvent, la police a négligé dans le passé d'instruire les témoignages de victimes et la justice, de poursuivre les coupables. Cette enquête de nature administrative, confiée à Peter Wanless, directeur de l'organisme de protection de l'enfance NSPCC (National Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Children), devrait rendre ses conclusions d'ici à la fin de l'été.\nOpération «mains propres»\nUne seconde commission indépendante, qui pourrait se transformer en commission d'investigation judiciaire si nécessaire, sera mise en place, pour faire la lumière sur les crimes impunis du passé. Elle sera composée d'experts de la justice et de la protection de l'enfance. Ses résultats ne sont pas attendus avant les prochaines élections de mai 2015, mais un rapport d'étape lui sera demandé à cette échéance. «Notre priorité doit être la poursuite des individus responsables de ces crimes dégoûtants», a assuré la ministre, qui a promis la «transparence maximale» et de «tirer les leçons des échecs du passé».\nOutre les allégations criminelles, les investigations exploreront l'attitude de l'Etat et d'institutions publiques, telles que la BBC ou les hôpitaux, mais aussi l'Eglise, face à ces scandales souvent étouffés. La classe politique se prépare à affronter une vaste «opération mains propres» qui pourrait traverser ses rangs. «Quand ces allégations touchent Whitehall et Westminster, il est encore plus important de faire la vérité», a réagi Yvette Cooper, députée travailliste. Theresa May a reconnu avoir négligé de lire un rapport d'enquêtes sur des faits de pédophilie dans les milieux politiques parce qu'il mettait en cause des responsables du Parti conservateur, dont elle est membre.\nLe premier ministre David Cameron s'est dit «absolument déterminé à ce que l'on fasse toute la lumière sur ces accusations». Plusieurs dizaines de milliers de personnes ont signé une pétition pour réclamer une enquête nationale sur ces soupçons, dévoilés par un député travailliste, Tom Watson, dès 2012. «A l'époque, la majorité des gens pensaient que l'establishment, le système, devait être protégé», a expliqué dimanche à la BBC l'ancien ministre conservateur Norman Tebbit.", "url": "http://www.lefigaro.fr/international/2014/07/07/01003-20140707ARTFIG00327-pedophilie-le-gouvernement-britannique-lance-deux-enquetes.php", "archive_url": "https://web.archive.org/web/20140707233538/http://www.lefigaro.fr/international/2014/07/07/01003-20140707ARTFIG00327-pedophilie-le-gouvernement-britannique-lance-deux-enquetes.php" } ]

Februar 2004 als Generalvikar des Bistums Dresden-Meißen tätig und regelte damit als rechte Hand von Bischof Joachim Reinelt die Leitung der täglichen Verwaltungsaufgaben. Der Görlitzer Bischofsstuhl ist seit zehn Monaten unbesetzt. Der Amtsvorgänger Dr. Zdarsas in Görlitz, Bischof Rudolf Müller, war am 24. Juni 2006 zu seinem 75. Geburtstag in den Ruhestand verabschiedet worden. Seither hatte der damalige Görlitzer Generalvikar Hubertus Zomack das Kirchengebiet als Diözesanadministrator geleitet. Ein Nachfolger für Dr. Zdarsa als Generalvikar des Bistums Dresden-Meißen ist noch nicht bekannt.\nIn Dresden gab Bischof Joachim Reinelt die Ernennung gemeinsam mit Dr. Zdarsa am Mittag vor den Mitarbeiterinnen und Mitarbeitern des Bischöflichen Ordinariats bekannt.

Jak wyjaśniła w TVN24 rzeczniczka pomorskiej policji Alicja Śledziona, znajdowane w zgliszczach szczątki ludzkie były rozczłonkowane i dopiero po przewiezieniu wszystkich do prosektorium anatomopatolodzy - po bardziej szczegółowych oględzinach - stwierdzili, że zginęło 21 osób, w tym sześcioro dzieci.Jak poinformował rzecznik straży pożarnej, do miejscowego szpitala trafiło 21 osób. Większość z nich ma różnego rodzaju złamania, a dwie - w tym 8-miesięczne dziecko - poparzenia. Niemowlę trafiło do specjalistycznego szpitala w Szczecinie.Jak mówi Daniel Kopaliński, rzecznik komendanta straży pożarnej w Kamieniu Pomorskim strażacy, którzy dotarli z remizy oddalonej od około 200 metrów byli zaskoczeni rozmiarem tragedii. - Strażacy łapali dzieci wyrzucane przez rodziców z okien, dopiero później ich opiekunowie sami wyskakiwali – relacjonuje Kopiński.Rzecznik zaznacza, że ogień w bardzo szybkim tempie rozprzestrzenił się na wszystkie piętra budynku, co odcięło mieszkańcom budynku drogę ewakuacji. - Trudno nam powiedzieć dlaczego ogień został tak późno zauważony i dlaczego ogień tak szybko się rozprzestrzeniał – mówi.Dodaje, że parter budynku wykonany był z materiałów niepalnych, dwie kolejne kondygnacje wykonane były z drewna. Wiele lat temu nakazano dobudowanie zewnętrznej klatki ewakuacyjnej i to uratowało te kilkanaście osób.O makabrycznym przebiegu pożaru mówi jeden ze świadków zdarzenia. - Usłyszałem brzęk szkła, otworzyłem drzwi - to tak jakby snop ognia wpadł do środka. Nie miałem czym oddychać. Moje drzwi się paliły, tylko zdążyłem spodnie założyć. Nie było na nic czasu. Wszystko płonęło jak pochodnia - dodaje.Trzykondygnacyjny budynek to hotel socjalny, z którego korzystały osoby, nie mające stałych mieszkań.Nie wiadomo, czy wszystkim osobom będącym w środku udało się opuścić płonący budynek.

Wie der Fernsehsender Al Dschasira berichtete, griffen mehrere hundert Menschen das Innenministerium an. Die Polizei habe die Demonstranten mit Gewalt daran gehindert, das Gebäude zu stürmen. Augenzeugen zufolge sind auch Schüsse abgefeuert worden. Nach Angaben von Rettungskräften starben mindestens drei Menschen bei den Auseinandersetzungen in der Innenstadt.\nNach Angaben des Senders Al Arabija versuchten Demonstranten auch erneut, das Gebäude des Staatsfernsehens zu stürmen. Zudem gab es in einem Vorort Kairos Ausschreitungen: Die Nachrichtenagentur Reuters berichtet, Hunderte hätten versucht, dort das Gebäude der Zentralbank zu stürmen. Augenzeugen berichten, dass die Armee in die Luft schoss und sich mit gepanzerten Fahrzeugen näherte, um die Menschen zurückzudrängen.\nMubarak will nicht zurücktreten\nPräsident Hosni Mubarak klammert sich ungeachtet der anhaltenden Massenproteste in Ägypten an die Macht: Nach Informationen des staatlichen Fernsehens ist zwar die Regierung zurückgetreten, wie Mubarak in der Nacht in einer Fernsehansprache angekündigt hatte. Zu den Forderungen nach seinem Rücktritt hatte sich der 82-Jährige jedoch nicht geäußert. Inzwischen berichtet das Staatsfernsehen, Mubarak habe für den Nachmittag zu einer \"wichtigen politischen Zusammenkunft\" im Präsidentenpalast eingeladen.\nGewaltfrei ist der Protest bereits seit Tagen nicht mehr. Nach offiziellen Angaben stieg die Zahl der Opfer auf fast 50, darunter zehn Polizisten. In Medienberichten ist von mehr als 70 Todesopfern die Rede. Allein am Freitag starben nach Informationen des Gesundheitsministeriums 38 Menschen. Die Polizei setzte in Kairo Wasserwerfer, Gummiknüppel und Tränengas ein. Ein Korrespondent des Senders Al Dschasira berichtet von 20 Leichen, die er nach Protesten in der Stadt Alexandria entdeckt habe. Eine offizielle Stellungnahme dazu gibt es bislang nicht.\nOffenbar Attacken auf Hotels\nAugenzeugen berichten ferner von Plünderungen und Ausschreitungen in Kairo und anderen Städten. Randalierer hätten in der Hauptstadt mehrere Hotels, Geschäfte und ein Restaurant attackiert. Soldaten riegelten den Zugang zu den Pyramiden von Gizeh ab.\nDas Auswärtige Amt hat bislang keine Hinweise, ob deutsche Staatsbürger betroffen sind. Es verschärfte bereits gestern seine Reisehinweise für Ägypten und rät inzwischen von reisen in ägyptische Städte ab. Mehrere arabische Prinzen und Geschäftsleute verließen derweil in Privatjets das Land in Richtung Riad, Dubai und Amman. Dagegen habe bislang kein ägyptischer Politiker das Land verlassen, erklärte ein Verantwortlicher am Flughafen Kairo.\nDie Regierung soll gehen - Mubarak will bleiben\nMubarak hatte sich in der vergangenen Nacht erstmals seit dem heftigen Aufflammen der Proteste geäußert und zum Dialog aufgerufen. An einen Rückzug denkt der seit mehr als 30 Jahre lang herrschende Präsident jedoch nicht. Neben der Kabinettsumbildung stellte er politische und soziale Reformen in Aussicht. \"Es wird neue Schritte in Richtung Demokratie und Freiheit geben und neue Schritte zur Bekämpfung der Arbeitslosigkeit sowie zur Steigerung des Lebensstandards und der Versorgung\", sagte er.\n[Bildunterschrift: Mubarak rechtfertigte den Polizeiensatz. ]\nDer 82-Jährige dürfte Beobachtern zufolge mit seiner Rede eher noch mehr Öl ins Feuer gegossen haben als die Wogen zu glätten: So wertete er die Proteste gegen das Regime gewissermaßen als einen Erfolg: Die Demonstrationen wären nicht möglich gewesen ohne die Meinungs- und Pressefreiheit, die es in Ägypten gebe. Das rigide Vorgehen der Polizei gegen die \"Chaoten\" auf der Straße verteidigte er.\nObama mahnt Reformen an\nUS-Präsident Barack Obama drängte Mubarak zu Reformen und appellierte an die Führung, jegliche Gewalt gegen friedliche Demonstranten zu unterlassen. Auch Bundeskanzlerin Angela Merkel forderte ein Ende der Gewalt.\nDer ägyptische Oppositionspolitiker Mohammed ElBaradei forderte Mubarak zum Rücktritt auf. Der Präsident sei gescheitert, sagte ElBaradei in einem Telefoninterview mit dem Fernsehsender Al Dschasira. Mubarak müsse die Machtübergabe regeln, nur so könnten die Proteste ein Ende finden. Die Rede des Präsidenten bezeichnete der Friedensnobelpreisträger als Enttäuschung für die Ägypter. ElBaradei steht seit seiner Beteiligung an den Demonstrationen am Freitag unter Hausarrest. Er gilt vielen Ägyptern als Hoffnungsträger und potenzieller Nachfolger Mubaraks.\nHandys haben wieder Netz\nDerweil öffneten die ägyptischen Behörden den Zugang zum Mobilfunknetz wieder. Die Verbindungen zweier ägyptischer Anbieter funktionieren wieder. Das Internet ist zumindest in Kairo weiterhin gestört. Die Regierung hatte Server lahmlegen lassen, weil sich Regierungskritiker über soziale Netzwerke oder Kurznachrichtendienste zu Demonstrationen verabredet hatten.

[ { "language": "es", "title": "Ni libre circulación ni trabajo: los británicos \"perderán\" los derechos de la UE", "text": "Todo depende del acuerdo que cierren Bruselas y Londres. En juego están los derechos y libertades fundamentales contempladas en los tratados europeos, y que los ciudadanos británicos perderán con la salida del Reino Unido de la UE, según un informe presentado hoy en el Parlamento Europeo (PE). La razón es que derechos como la libre circulación, el del trabajo o establecimiento no deben considerarse “adquiridos” por los individuos y, por ello, se extinguirán una vez que se materialice el Brexit.\nAsí lo advierte el informe “El impacto y las consecuencias del Brexit sobre los derechos adquiridos de los ciudadanos en la UE”, elaborado por Antonio Fernández Tomás y Diego López Garrido, profesores de Derecho Internacional y Constitucional en la Universidad de Castilla La Mancha, y encargado por la Comisión de Asuntos Constitucionales del PE.\nNi libre circulación ni trabajo: los británicos \"perderán\" los derechos de la UE\nNo hay precedentes históricos judiciales, salvo quizás en el caso del derecho a la propiedad, que sostengan que los derechos de los que disfrutaban individuos por ser de un Estado puedan proseguir en el momento que ese país deja de estar sometido a un ordenamiento jurídico, en este caso, el de la Unión, señala Fernández Tomás. Por ello, a no ser que Bruselas y Londres pacten lo contrario, los ciudadanos británicos no podrán conservar estos derechos y libertades.\nNo obstante, el profesor apunta que \"no hay objeción alguna a que haya un periodo transitorio o incluso una vez se haya consumado la salida que se pacte por parte de la UE y Reino Unido prolongar esos derechos\". En este sentido, López Garrido destaca \"la importancia de un pacto amplio\" que termine con \"las incertidumbres\" sobre qué derechos tendrán durante el proceso del Brexit y después del mismo los ciudadanos británicos que viven en la UE y viceversa. Recientemente el Gobierno británico logró aprobar intacta la legislación para activar el Brexit después de que la Cámara de los Comunes rechazase una enmienda de los Lores que aludía a la protección de los comunitarios que ya viven en el país.\nEl también ex secretario de Estado para la UE señaló que debería haber tres acuerdos con Londres: el de retirada (con la aplicación del artículo 50), el del periodo transitorio, y el que perdurará tras salida, con Reino Unido ya considerado como país tercero.\nYa hay fecha para el Brexit: Reino Unido pedirá su salida de la UE el 29 de marzo María Tejero Martín. Bruselas Activará el artículo 50 del Tratado de de Lisboa según ha confirmado Downing Street para dar luz verde al proceso formal de negociaciones para la salida del bloque\nEn el debate con los eurodiputados, Ramón Jáuregui, del Partido Socialista Obrero Español (PSOE), llamó también a aclarar qué ocurrirá si Bruselas y Londres no han llegado a un acuerdo sobre esos derechos pasados dos años desde la activación el próximo 29 de marzo del artículo 50 que iniciará oficialmente el Brexit. La situación de los derechos fundamentales de unos y otros debería ser minuciosamente establecida desde el primer pacto, para evitar que durante las negociaciones se utilicen los derechos individuales como \"moneda de cambio\", dijo Garrido.\nAmbos académicos llamaron a que la UE negocie con Londres en bloque sobre los derechos fundamentales en vez de caer en \"tentaciones bilaterales\", un punto que también quiso destacar la eurodiputada Maite Pagazartundúa.\nMarcar las líneas de negociación\nMientras, el presidente del Consejo Europeo, Donald Tusk, anunció hoy que el CE celebrará una sesión extraordinaria sin el Reino Unido el próximo 29 de abril para adoptar las directrices de la negociación. \"Convocaré un Consejo Europeo el sábado 29 de abril para adoptar las directrices de las conversaciones del Brexit\", indicó hoy Tusk en una declaración ante la prensa junto al primer ministro de Japón, Shinzo Abe, y el presidente de la Comisión Europea, Jean-Claude Juncker.\nDe este modo, los 27 líderes de la UE se reunirán para aprobar las bases de la negociación un mes después de la activación oficial por parte de Londres del artículo 50 del Tratado de Lisboa, que la primera ministra británica, Theresa May, indicó este lunes que se producirá el próximo 29 de marzo.\nEl político polaco destacó que, \"personalmente, desearía que el Reino Unido no hubiera escogido marcharse de la UE. Pero la mayoría de los votantes británicos lo decidieron de otro modo\". \"Así, debemos hacer todo lo que podamos para que el proceso de divorcio sea lo menos doloroso posible para la UE\", puntualizó Tusk, en una declaración a cuyo término hubo posibilidad de preguntas. Según dijo, \"nuestra principal prioridad para las negociaciones debe ser crear toda la certidumbre y claridad posible para todos los ciudadanos, empresas y Estados miembros que se vean afectados negativamente por el 'brexit', así como nuestros importantes socios y amigos en todo el mundo, como Japón\".\nLa Comisión Europea aseguró este lunes que \"todo está preparado\" para la activación del artículo 50 sobre la salida de un Estado miembro de la Unión, un proceso que durará hasta dos años pero que puede ser ampliado por unanimidad de los países. Tras la adopción de las directrices de la negociación por parte de los líderes, la Comisión deberá emitir una recomendación para abrir las negociaciones que tendrá que adoptar el Consejo.", "url": "http://www.elconfidencial.com/mundo/2017-03-21/brexit-derechos-union-europea-britanicos-negociacion_1351932/", "archive_url": "https://web.archive.org/web/20170321214829/http://www.elconfidencial.com/mundo/2017-03-21/brexit-derechos-union-europea-britanicos-negociacion_1351932/" } ]

Israel had set an August 1 deadline to expel illegal migrants and their children, even those who grew up in Jewish state, triggering an outcry among human rights groups. According to the interior ministry, some 300,000 illegal aliens - including 100,000 migrants, tourists who overstayed their visit and Palestinians - live in Israel which is home to seven million inhabitants.

A reclamação dos beneficiários é pela dificuldade em acessar o aplicativo ‘Caixa Tem’, que foi disponibilizado para facilitar as operações e consultas. Os usuários, no entanto, reclamam que, além da demora para checar informações, a ferramenta apresenta intermitência e problemas técnicos.\nO autônomo Carlos Eduardo Bianchi Velchio, por exemplo, é uma das pessoas que enfrentam dificuldades. Já são quatro meses que a loja de suplementos dele, em Mogi das Cruzes, está fechada. Desde o inicio da pandemia a alternativa que ele encontrou foi levar os produtos até os clientes, mesmo assim o faturamento continuou muito baixo.\n“Eu fechei e estou fazendo venda por aplicativo. [O faturamento] caiu 90%. Eu praticamente parei de trabalhar nesse período”, diz. Sem renda, o autônomo conta que solicitou o auxílio emergencial oferecido pelo Governo Federal durante a crise. Ele foi contemplado pelo benefício, porém, teve dificuldade em recebê-lo. A primeira parcela veio há quase um mês.\nEle diz que acessar o aplicativo ‘Caixa Tem’ não tem sido fácil. Além da demora causada pela fila virtual, ele tem encontrado dificuldades na hora de usar o dinheiro em alguns estabelecimentos.\n“Toda vez que você vai acessar, demora uma hora. Quando você entra, depois daquela uma hora, já expirou seu tempo e você tem que aguardar por uma hora. Tentei por várias vezes entrar no aplicativo para fazer pagamento. Eles têm um cartão de débito eletrônico que você pode fazer pagamento, [mas] não dava, porque o aplicativo é falho”, afirma.\nO ‘Caixa Tem’ é um aplicativo criado para facilitar o acesso de todos os brasileiros aos serviço oferecidos pela Caixa Econômica Federal. Por meio dele é possível acessar informações sobre o auxílio emergencial, benefícios e programas sociais, fazer compras na internet utilizando o cartão de débito virtual, entre outros serviços.\nNo entanto, os problemas no acesso ao aplicativo têm refletido na vida real. As filas que se formam nas portas das agências do banco se tornaram rotina. A estudante Nathalia de Souza Farias, por exemplo, foi até uma unidade porque encontrou problemas no ‘Caixa Tem’.\n“Muita gente está entrando no mesmo dia, na mesma hora. Talvez seja isso. Só que o aplicativo, acho que falta informação. Mais de uma hora, não há explicação correta. Antes, no começo de tudo, falava ’46 minutos’ [por exemplo]. Tinha uma hora marcada para você poder entrar. Agora não tem. Fica mais de uma hora, mais de duas horas. Não tem um tempo exato para a gente poder entrar”, desabafa.\nA diarista Solange da Silva já recebeu os dois primeiros pagamentos do auxilio emergencial, o que tem ajudado muito a família dela. Entretanto, ela relata que as não encontrou algumas informações que precisava pela internet e, por isso, estava na fila.\n“Estou em dúvida porque não conseguia acessar no Caixa Tem na data de aniversário que era novembro. Não tenho certeza se vou receber hoje ou não”, comenta.\nQuem também aguardou por atendimento presencial foi a Valéria de Souza. A terceira parcela ainda não caiu e como ela precisou fazer um novo cadastro encontrou problemas no aplicativo. A ferramenta que deveria facilitar o processo, têm, na verdade, complicado ainda mais a situação financeira de muita gente.\n“Como foi feita uma nova senha para entrar no Caixa Tem, eles estão falando que está avaliando. Eu sou correntista aqui, tinha que estar depositando na minha conta para não ficar essa burocracia, todo mundo aqui. Acho que se fizesse isso, não ia ter muita gente”, diz a desempregada.\nO Carlos, que já enfrentava dificuldades para solicitar o benefício, também encontrou problemas na hora de utilizá-lo por meio do aplicativo.\n“Eu fui num mercado que aceita o aplicativo. Fiz a compra e, na hora em que chegamos no Caixa, caiu. Fomos no caixa rápido sacar o dinheiro, para pagar dentro do mercado. O caixa rápido só liberava para quem tinha conta em um determinado banco. Por exemplo, quem tinha conta no Banco do Brasil, essas pessoas tinham direito de sacar ali. Para quem era Caixa, que é o meu caso, não tinha. Tive que deixar a compra lá, correr na cidade, sacar no banco mesmo o dinheiro, para poder voltar e pagar no dinheiro”, reclama.\nO que diz a Caixa\nA Caixa informou por meio de nota que os clientes e beneficiários do auxilio emergencial estão conseguindo realizar as operações e que tem realizado melhorias nas operações. Segundo a Caixa, as melhorias são visíveis no atendimento, pois o tempo de espera na ferramenta diminuiu. No entanto, o banco confirma que em horários de pico pode haver intermitência momentânea nos serviços.\nSobre a reclamação da Valéria, que precisou fazer um novo cadastro, a Caixa informou que “dispõe de rotinas e procedimentos que monitoram as contas, acessos, transações e informações cadastrais periodicamente e, em casos de suspeita, o banco atua preventivamente para mitigar as fragilidades.

O problema tem causado transtornos e virou dor de cabeça para muitos brasileiros.\nPara tentar amenizar a altíssima demanda do aplicativo, a Caixa começou a divulgar calendários para pagamento de acordo com os meses de nascimento dos beneficiários; assim, nem todas as pessoas que têm direito ao auxílio emergencial precisariam acessar o aplicativo ao mesmo tempo. Não deu certo. A situação para a maioria que necessita movimentar o dinheiro não melhorou.\nRelatos em redes sociais indicam que os usuários enfrentam problemas desde o acesso ao aplicativo, passando por falhas de conexão com o servidor e serviços indisponíveis, até o momento em que o app simplesmente deixa de funcionar repentinamente; assim, do nada, o aplicativo fecha. Frequentes, os problemas técnicos obrigam o consumidor a retornar ao final da fila para tentar o processo todo novamente.\nAbrir o app caixa tem fiquei uma hora na fila e nada fui ao mercado tentei pagar com o celular não carregou AFF #caixatem — Debora R Dornellas (@DeboraDornella1) July 9, 2020\nA Caixa alega constantemente que os problemas enfrentados são causados pela alta demanda dos usuários. Aliás, esta já virou resposta padrão toda vez que o aplicativo apresenta alguma instabilidade. No entanto, de acordo com João Ferraz, sócio e diretor do Estúdio Digital da Reamp, empresa especializada em marketing programático, em alguns casos, os motivos para isso \"podem ser os mais variados possíveis: a conexão do usuário, o próprio aparelho celular, o seu conhecimento para operar essas ferramentas, o sistema operacional que o dispositivo utiliza, a parte de experiência do usuário (UX) etc., ou seja: é muito variável\".\nEntretanto, Ferraz destaca que a Caixa também poderia se proteger de problemas ao \"instalar funcionalidades dentro do próprio app que coletem dados relativos à jornada do usuário; avaliar grupos de pessoas que acessam o app utilizando modelos específicos de dispositivos, ou de conexão, ou até mesmo de regiões específicas. Quem são os usuários que estão enfrentando problemas, e quais são essas intercorrências? A partir dessas perguntas, e com base em diversos tipos de análises, de cruzamento de informações, é possível identificar as intercorrências e chegar a soluções\".\nProblemas de conexão são comuns no aplicativo. Foto: Marcello Casal Jr/Agência Brasil\nPara Piero Contezini, CEO do Asaas, a causa das dificuldades no aplicativo pode estar ligada ao tempo para desenvolvimento do app. \"Parecem ter sido bugs de software, dado que desenvolveram o aplicativo com muita pressa\", diz.\nUma solução simples para o problema seria continuar permitindo que as parcelas fossem creditadas em contas indicadas no momento do cadastro, como aconteceu com a primeira parcela, de acorod com Contezini. \"Ela [Caixa] poderia pensar em interoperabilidade de aplicações, por exemplo, em vez de disponibilizar o dinheiro no app deles e permitir que o usuário pague um boleto para mover para outro banco, por que na hora do cadastro não pedir o banco de destino e já creditar lá?\", questiona.\nDesenvolvimento do aplicativo\nOs especialistas ouvidos pelo Olhar Digital concordam que o aplicativo foi projetado considerando a demanda de acessos dos usuários. No entanto, Ferraz destaca que, por conta de o sistema fornecer, no mesmo ambiente, acesso a dados de programas sociais, benefícios e outros serviços governamentais, é normal que o número gigantesco de acessos cause intermitências momentâneas. \"Na condição de software, nenhum aplicativo está livre de apresentar problemas. O desenvolvimento de um app é sempre orgânico\", explica.\nAinda, segundo ele, \"pode ser que a infraestrutura [do app] não seja o problema. É uma hipótese. Acredito que os desenvolvedores do aplicativo saibam quais tipos de infraestrutura, considerando a ampla gama de serviços existentes, o aplicativo suporta. Reforço que o ponto é analisar constantemente as intercorrências. Não é possível encontrar soluções sem essas análises, ou seja, sem os dados e as informações que comprovem e validem as hipóteses\".\nProblema de segurança\nAlém dos problemas envolvendo o acesso ao aplicativo, alguns clientes já relataram intercorrências com os valores creditados. Dinheiro sumindo da conta para a qual foi feita a transferência – ou nunca chegando até ela – e até roubo direto do aplicativo são eventos já ocorridos.\nUsuários enfrentam problemas de segurança no aplicativo. Foto: iStock\nComo relatado por Ricardo Paulino, beneficiário do auxílio emergencial, a quantia em dinheiro foi roubada antes que pudesse transferí-la ou sacá-la. Ele relata que estava com a soma na conta desde o dia 2, mas só poderia movimentá-la em setembro, seguindo o calendário imposto pela própria Caixa.\nAo tentar pagar boletos, uma mensagem de erro sempre retornava e solicitava uma tentiva posterior. Na noite de quinta-feira (9), ao acessar o aplicativo para realizar mais uma tentativa, além da aguardar mais de uma hora, ele descobriu que alguém conseguiu invadir a conta e fazer uma transferência do valor disponível.\nNa manhã desta sexta-feira (10), Paulino se dirigiu até uma agência. Lá, foi informado que teria de aguardar 15 dias até que uma investigação aberta pela Caixa fosse concluída. A única informação até então fornecida pelo banco foi o nome da conta para onde o dinheiro foi transferido, entretanto, Paulino informou à reportagem que desconhece o destinatário e aguarda uma resolução por parte da Caixa.\nArthur Melo, CEO da Pillbiz, agência de marketing digital e tecnologia, explica que, neste caso, a subtração do valor pode estar ligada diretamente à \"falha do aplicativo. O nível de segurança e a codificação do app têm que deixar o usuário totalmente ciente de que ele está navegando em um ambiente à prova de fraudes\".\n\"Há certificados e itens de cyber security que devem fazer parte de um projeto desse porte e com necessidade de níveis avançados de segurança. Além disso, o app deveria ter passado por testes independentes de estresse de segurança antes de ser lançado ao público. Isso é fundamental para se prever falhas, encontrar brechas e corrigir problemas\", afirma.\nApesar das ínúmeras vulnerabilidades, ele diz reconhecer a urgência com que o aplicativo foi criado devido à demanda das pessoas em meio à pandemia da Covid-19, mas que isso \"não justifica lançar um aplicativo sem que testes do tipo tenham sido feitos\".", "url": "https://olhardigital.com.br/noticia/por-que-o-caixa-tem-e-um-app-problematico-especialistas-explicam/103343", "archive_url": "https://web.archive.org/web/20200711223000/https://olhardigital.com.br/noticia/por-que-o-caixa-tem-e-um-app-problematico-especialistas-explicam/103343" } ]

As a result, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service is proposing to remove the Yellowstone population from the list of threatened and endangered species. Four other grizzly populations in the lower 48 states have not yet recovered and will continue to be protected as threatened species under the Act. “When it was listed in 1975, this majestic animal that greeted Lewis and Clark on their historic expedition stood at risk of disappearing from the American West,” Norton said. “Thanks to the work of many partners, more than 600 grizzlies now inhabit the Yellowstone ecosystem and the population is no longer threatened.” “With a comprehensive conservation strategy ready to be put into place upon delisting, we are confident that the future of the grizzly bear in Yellowstone is bright,” she said. “Our grandchildren’s grandchildren will see grizzly bears roaming Yellowstone.” Grizzly bears in the Yellowstone area have made a remarkable recovery in the past three decades. When the species was listed, only 220 to 320 bears remained in the ecosystem, and these animals were jeopardized by loss of habitat and high mortality from conflict with humans. Cooperation, consultation and communication among numerous federal and state agencies, non-government organizations, local governments and citizens have reversed the trend. Since the mid 1990s, the Yellowstone population has grown at a rate of 4 percent to 7 percent per year. Grizzlies have occupied 48 percent more habitat since they were listed, and biologists have sighted bears more than 60 miles from what was once thought to be the outer limits of their range. The recovery of grizzly bears in the Yellowstone ecosystem is the result of intensive scientific research, state and federal cooperation to manage habitat and limit mortality, and the implementation of regulatory protections over more than three decades. In 1973 – two years prior to the bear’s addition to the threatened species list – scientists at various federal agencies formed a grizzly bear scientific study team. The team currently consists of scientists involved in grizzly bear recovery from the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, National Park Service, the U.S. Geological Survey, the USDA-Forest Service, the state wildlife agencies in Idaho, Montana and Wyoming and several universities. This science team has developed protocols and techniques to monitor grizzly bear populations and habitat and to document the status of the grizzly bear population. Later, in 1983, these agencies formed the Interagency Grizzly Bear Committee, also including the state of Washington, the Bureau of Land Management, province of British Columbia and the province of Alberta. In addition, the team developed a conservation strategy for future management of the Yellowstone population and its habitat should the species be delisted. The strategy incorporates the best available science and establishes an adaptive management framework that allows the Service and its partners to adjust management guidelines in response to new scientific information and/or environmental and population changes. State and federal managers will continue to work cooperatively under this framework to manage and maintain healthy grizzly bear populations throughout the Greater Yellowstone area into the foreseeable future. The proposal to delist the Yellowstone population of grizzly bears will be published in the Federal Register on Thursday, November 17. The proposal and more information about today’s announcement can be found at http://mountain-prairie.fws.gov/species/mammals/grizzly/2yellowstone.htm The public can submit comments on the proposal to: Grizzly Bear Recovery Coordinator, U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, University Hall 309, University of Montana, Missoula, Montana 59812.

Grizzly bears are generally larger and more heavily built than other bears. They can be distinguished from black bears by longer, curved claws, humped shoulders and a face that appears to be concave. A wide range of coloration from light brown to nearly black is common. The bear’s coat features longer guard hairs over a dense mat of underfur whose tips lighten as the bear ages - hence the name “grizzly.” In the lower 48 states, the average weight of grizzly bears is generally 400 to 600 pounds for males and 250 to 350 pounds for females. Grizzly bears are long-lived mammals and generally live to be around 25 years old. Grizzlies are opportunistic feeders and will consume almost any available food including living or dead mammals or fish, grasses, roots, bulbs, tubers and fungi. The distribution and abundance of these grizzly bear foods vary naturally among seasons and years. Biologists believe the Yellowstone area grizzly population and other remaining grizzly bear populations in the lower 48 states and Canada are markedly separate from each other, with no evidence of interaction with other populations. The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service is the principal federal agency responsible for conserving, protecting and enhancing fish, wildlife and plants and their habitats for the continuing benefit of the American people. The Service manages the 95-million-acre National Wildlife Refuge System, which encompasses 545 national wildlife refuges, thousands of small wetlands and other special management areas. It also operates 69 national fish hatcheries, 64 fishery resources offices and 81 ecological services field stations. The agency enforces federal wildlife laws, administers the Endangered Species Act, manages migratory bird populations, restores nationally significant fisheries, conserves and restores wildlife habitat such as wetlands, and helps foreign and Native American tribal governments with their conservation efforts. It also oversees the Federal Assistance program, which distributes hundreds of millions of dollars in excise taxes on fishing and hunting equipment to state fish and wildlife agencies.", "url": "http://www.doi.gov/news/05_News_Releases/051115c.htm", "archive_url": "https://web.archive.org/web/20051124045451/http://www.doi.gov/news/05_News_Releases/051115c.htm" }, { "language": "en", "title": "Yellowstone", "text": "Yellowstone Ecosystem\nAs the habitat area most remote from the other remaining grizzly bear habitat, the Yellowstone ecosystem has been the primary focus of grizzly recovery efforts to date.

S-Bahnhof Julius-Leber-Brücke\nWenn die Schöneberger bei ihren täglichen Wegen in diesen Wochen bevorzugt die Julius-Leber-Brücke überqueren und lange stehenbleiben, um in die Tiefe zu schauen, hat das einen besonderen Grund. Sie machen sich ein Bild von den Bauarbeiten rund um die Gleisanlagen der S-Bahn-Linie S 1. Schließlich passiert es nicht oft, dass ein neuer S-Bahnhof gebaut wird. Die neue S-Bahn-Station Julius-Leber-Brücke wird am 02. Mai feierlich eröffnet. Dort, wo einst die Züge am Bahnhof Kolonnenstraße hielten, werden schon bald wieder Fahrgäste ein- und aussteigen können.\nMit der 6,4 Millionen Euro teuren Station zwischen den Bahnhöfen Schöneberg und Yorckstraße (Großgörschenstraße) nimmt eine mehr als 20-jährige Diskussion ein erfreuliches Ende. Denn seit 1984 waren die Planungen für die Wiederinbetriebnahme des ehemaligen S-Bahnhofs Kolonnenstraße, der 1944 im Zweiten Weltkrieg zerstört wurde, im Gespräch.\n17 000 Fahrgäste täglich\nIm Sommer des vergangenen Jahres war es dann soweit: Feierlich wurde ein Gleisjoch der Stammbahn und die alten Bahnsteigreste entfernt sowie Baustraßen angelegt. Seitdem lässt sich eine rege Bautätigkeit beobachten. So werden Seitenbahnsteige errichtet, auf der Südseite der Julius-Leber-Brücke entstehen zwei Treppenzugänge und auf der nördlichen Seite eine Fußgängerbrücke, die mit Aufzügen zum Bahnsteig ausgestattet wird.\nWenn der neue S-Bahnhof Julius-Leber-Brücke am 02. Mail offiziell in Betrieb geht, rechnet die S-Bahn Berlin mit 17 000 Fahrgästen täglich. Zum engeren Einzugsgebiet des Bahnhofs zählen der Stadtteil Schöneberg und allen voran der sogenannte Kiez „Rote Insel“ sowie die Hauptstraße und der Kaiser-Wilhelm-Platz.\n13 000 Menschen leben dort, hinzu kommen die Besucher der Einkaufspassage, der umliegenden Geschäfte, des Kinos und der vielen Cafés in der lebendigen Gegend. Durch die neue Station könnten laut Angaben der S-Bahn Berlin auch Menschen für den ÖPNV gewonnen werden, die vom Auto-Dauerstau in der Hauptstraße und Potsdamer Straße genug haben. Beispielsweise beträgt die Fahrtzeit von der Julius-Leber-Brücke bis zum Potsdamer Platz mit der S-Bahn gerade einmal sechs Minuten. Ein geplanter Verknüpfungspunkt mit den Angeboten der BVG auf der Brücke soll zudem das Umsteigen attraktiv machen.\nBerliner, denen die Gegend nicht vertraut ist, können sich die Julius-Leber-Brücke als lohnendes Ziel im S-Bahn-Streckennetz ebenfalls vormerken. Vom neuen Bahnhof aus sind nämlich auch das Geburtshaus der unvergessenen Marlene Dietrich, das Wohnhaus von Namensgeber Julius Leber und das Gasometer, ein Schöneberger Industriedenkmal, das jetzt zu einen modernen Geschäftshaus ausgebaut werden soll, bequem zu erreichen.\nIn der kommenden Ausgabe von punkt 3 erfahren Sie mehr über die Sehenswürdigkeiten und die Geschichte rund um den 166. S-Bahnhof Julius-Leber- Brücke, an dessen Vorgänger einst die Ringzüge auf ihrer Fahrt zum Potsdamer Ringbahnhof hielten.\nDer alte S-Bahnhof Kolonnenstraße: hier noch mit dem Namen Schöneberg\n(bis 1.12.1932). Seine Lage befand sich weiter nordwärts als die des\nneuen Bahnhofs. Er wurde am 3. Juli 1944 geschlossen.\nDas Bezirksamt ist sehr glücklich, dass den jahrzentelangen Bemühungen der Anwohnerinnen und Anwohner Rechnung getragen wurde“, so der für Verkehr im Bezirksamt zuständige Bezirksstadtrat Oliver Schworck. „Durch den S-Bahnhof wird die Schöneberger Insel für die Bürgerinnen und Bürger noch attraktiver und erlebbarer“, erklärt Oliver Schworck.\nWie wichtig dem Bezirksamt die „Schöneberger Insel“ ist, zeigt u.a. auch die Tatsache, dass bereits im Vorfeld die Umgestaltung des Kaiser-Wilhelm-Platzes abgeschlossen wurde. Neben der Lichtbrunnenanlage laden auch hochwertige Stadtmöbel zum Verweilen ein. Es gibt eine mit Bodenstrahlern angeleuchtete Platane und ein Außencafé.\nWeitere Links im Internet\nText: Claudia Braun\nFoto oben: David Ulrich\nFoto unten: Sammlung Sigurd Hilkenbach", "url": "http://www.s-bahn-berlin.de/aktuell/2008/094_julius-leber-bruecke.htm", "archive_url": "https://web.archive.org/web/20080420091105/http://s-bahn-berlin.de/aktuell/2008/094_julius-leber-bruecke.htm" }, { "language": "de", "title": "Ab 2. Mai der 166. S-Bahnhof im Netz", "text": "News - Ab 2. Mai der 166. S-Bahnhof im Netz\nNeue Fahrmöglichkeiten für die ganze „Schöneberger Insel“\nDarauf haben die Schöneberger Jahrzehnte gewartet: Am 2. Mai 2008 um 13 Uhr wird der neue S-Bahnhof mit Namen Julius-Leber-Brücke (Kolonnenstraße) eröffnet. Während sich die etwa 13 000 Anwohner im Einzugsgebiet über eine direkte S-Bahn-Anbindung an die Linie S 1 freuen, dürfen alle Hauptstädter und Besucher gespannt sein, welche Sehenswürdigkeiten sich vom neuen Bahnhof aus bequem erreichen lassen.\nSonderfahrplan zur Streckeneröffnung\n100 KB\n„Effizient, modern und kostengünstig“ – das sind mit den Worten von Jens Hebbe, bei der S-Bahn Berlin für die Betriebsplanung verantwortlich, die Attribute, die der S-Bahnhof Julius-Leber-Brücke erfüllt. Schließlich sollte es nach einer mehr als 20-jährigen Diskussion bei der Errichtung der neuen Station vorangehen. Im November 2006 fand der Spatenstich statt, nun sind fast alle notwendigen Arbeiten abgeschlossen, um die rot-gelben Züge unter der Julius-Leber- Brücke halten zu lassen.\nBahnsteige und das Wegeleitsystem sind fertig. Der Bahnhof erhält Inforufsäulen, dynamische Fahrtrichtungsanzeiger, Fahrausweisautomaten und Informationskästen. Bis Ende des Jahres werden die Fußgängerbrücke, die Treppen und Aufzüge am nördlichen Teil des Bahnhofs errichtet, um den barrierefreien Zugang zu ermöglichen.\nBewusst wurden Seitenbahnsteige errichtet, damit die beiden mittigen Gleise ihre Lage behalten konnten. Schließlich möchte sich die S-Bahn Berlin die Möglichkeit offen halten, irgendwann wieder über die Cheruskerkurve zu fahren.\nJens Hebbe: „Das wird im Zusammenhang mit der langfristigen Planung für die S 21 interessant, wenn der Senat beschließt, die künftige S 21 über Julius-Leber-Brücke nach Südkreuz zu führen.“ So könnte irgendwann der östliche Seitenbahnsteig zu einem Mittelbahnsteig erweitert werden, wenn das Gleis vom Ring über die Cheruskerkurve kommt, so der Betriebsplaner weiter.\nUmsteigemöglichkeiten am S-Bahnhof Julius-Leber-Brücke Durch die Eröffnung des neuen S-Bahnhofs Julius-Leber-Brücke werden die dort verkehrenden Buslinien der BVG ab 1. Mai 2008 mit veränderten Fahrplänen und geänderten Linienführungen unterwegs sein, die die Umsteige- möglichkeiten zur S-Bahnlinie S 1 vereinfachen sollen.\nDie dafür vorgesehenen Haltestellen auf der Julius-Leber-Brücke werden nach Abschluss der Bauarbeiten zur Verfügung stehen. Bis dies realisiert ist, werden die Haltestellen „Czeminskistraße“ für die Buslinien 104, 106, 204 und N 42 vorübergehend in „SBhf. Julius-Leber-Brücke“ umbenannt.\nDie weiteren Änderungen der Buslinien auf einen Blick:\nBuslinie 104 Neu-Westend, Brixplatz <> Stralau, Tunnelstraße, täglich:\nAm S-Bahnhof Julius-Leber-Brücke erhält die Linie ein Haltestellenpaar zum Umstieg von/zur S-Bahn. Die Haltestelle „Hohenfriedbergstraße“ wird zusätzlich auch in Richtung Neu-Westend bedient.\nBuslinie 106 U-Bhf. Seestraße <> Schöneberg, Lindenhof, täglich:\nDie Linie erhält ab S-Bahnhof Südkreuz eine neue Strecke und verkehrt (wie bislang der Bus 204) über Sachsendamm > Alboinstraße > Alboinplatz > Eythstraße zur Endhaltestelle Lindenhof. Der entfallene Streckenabschnitt ist ab S-Bahnhof Südkreuz mit den Linien M46 und 248 zu erreichen. Die Linie 106 bekommt am S-Bahnhof Julius-Leber-Brücke ein Haltestellenpaar.\nBuslinie 187 U-Bhf. Turmstraße <> Lankwitz, Halbauer Weg, täglich:\nAuf dem Streckenabschnitt Großer Stern <> Kaiser-Wilhelm-Platz entsteht zu den Zeiten des 20-Minuten-Taktes zusammen mit der Linie 106 ein 10-Minuten- Takt.\nBuslinie 204 S-Bhf. Südkreuz <> S+U-Bhf. Zoologischer Garten, Mo-Sa:\nDie Linie verkehrt nur noch bis S-Bahnhof Südkreuz. Der entfallene Streckenabschnitt bis Lindenhof wird von der Linie 106 übernommen. Am S-Bahnhof Julius-Leber-Brücke erhält die Linie zu einem späteren Zeitpunkt ein Haltestellenpaar.\nNachtbuslinie N42 U-Bhf. Theodor-Heuss-Platz <> S+U-Bhf. Alexanderplatz, verkehrt alle Nächte:\nAuch diese Linie erhält zu einem späteren Zeitpunkt ein Haltestellenpaar am S-Bahnhof Julius-Leber-Brücke. Die Haltestelle „Hohenfriedbergstraße“ wird zusätzlich auch in Richtung U-Bhf. Theodor-Heuss-Platz bedient.\nBessere Verkehrsanbindung für „Schöneberger Insel“\nIngeborg Junge-Reyer,\nSenatorin für Stadt-\nentwicklung\nDer S-Bahnhof Julius-Leber-Brücke wird eine Bereicherung für die gesamte „Schöneberger Insel“ sein. Mit der Inbetriebnahme werden dichte Wohngebiete, Läden und Arbeitsstätten fußläufig erschlossen, zudem berührt die wichtige Ost-West-Omnibus-Linie 104 den künftigen SBahnhof und trägt somit zur besseren Verkehrsanbindung bei. Insgesamt wird durch den neuen Bahnhof ein Potenzial von 17 000 Fahrgästen erreicht.Das Land Berlin hat darauf Wert gelegt, dass, in Absprache mit den Verbänden der Behinderten, der S-Bahnhof Julius-Leber- Brücke (Kolonnenstraße) zu einem Beispiel der barrierefreien Gestaltung wird.\nIn nur sechs Minuten zum Potsdamer Platz\nDr. Tobias Heinemann,\nS-Bahn-Chef\n64 Jahre nach seiner kriegsbedingten Zerstörung geht der S-Bahnhof an der Julius-Leber-Brücke wieder in Betrieb. Die „Schöneberger Insel“ erhält damit wieder Anschluss an das Berliner S-Bahn-Netz. Mit den Zügen der S 1 geht es in nur 6 Minuten zum Potsdamer Platz, statt wie bisher 14 Minuten mit dem Bus M48.Auch der Weg ins Grüne verkürzt sich mit den rot gelben Zügen. Im Sommer lädt zum Beispiel der Schlachtensee zum Sonnenbaden und Schwimmen ein – erreichbar in nur 21 Minuten. Freuen wir uns gemeinsam, dass es am 2. Mai um 13 Uhr endlich soweit ist. Allen Bewohnern der „Schöneberger Insel“ ein herzliches Willkommen als Fahrgast der S-Bahn Berlin GmbH.\nBahnhofseröffnung ist lang ersehnt\nBernd Krömer, Bezirks-\nstadtrat in Schöneberg\nDer Bezirk Tempelhof- Schöneberg und insbesondere die Bewohner der „Schöneberger Insel“ freuen sich über die lang ersehnte Bahnhofseröffnung.Der Kiez mit sehr hoher Einwohnerdichte hat nun endlich einen Anschluss an das S-Bahn-Netz und es besteht eine gute Umsteigemöglichkeit zum überregionalen Bus 104. Ein Wehrmutstropfen ist aber, dass der Bahnhof erst Ende des Jahres mit Aufzügen und einem Ausgang zur Nordseite der Brücke ausgestattet wird. Auch dann erst werden die Bushaltestellen auf die Brücke verlegt, womit ein direktes Umsteigen zwischen den Buslinien und der S 1 möglich sein wird.\nWeitere Links im Internet\nText: Claudia Braun\nFoto: David Ulrich", "url": "http://www.s-bahn-berlin.de/aktuell/2008/113_julius-leber-bruecke.htm", "archive_url": "https://web.archive.org/web/20080505055429/http://www.s-bahn-berlin.de/aktuell/2008/113_julius-leber-bruecke.htm" }, { "language": "de", "title": "Senatsverwaltung für Stadtentwicklung", "text": "Pressebox Presseeinladung: Eröffnung des S-Bahn-Haltepunktes Julius-Leber-Brücke\n25.04.08\nPressemitteilung der Deutschen Bahn AG und der Senatorin für Stadtentwicklung Berlin\nEinladung zum Presse- und Fototermin\n„Mit dem Sonderzug zur Eröffnung des S-Bahn-Haltepunktes Julius-Leber-Brücke“, am 2.

Their goal was to build and sell personal computers, and their first product was a build-it-yourself computer kit. In 1984, the Apple Macintosh was introduced.

Did it mean Apple Computer had finally settled its trademark litigation with Apple Corps, the company founded by the Beatles? Was Apple's CEO about to announce a historic alliance between his iTunes music store and the surviving members of the Fab Four?\nThe answer was no, and music industry sources say recent rumors of an incipient settlement are equally unfounded. But Apple watchers eager to see such a pact remain hopeful.\nNews.context\nWhat's new:\nSpeculation is once again rising that Apple Computer is in talks with Apple Corps to resolve a trademark dispute.

One report quotes a legal source predicting the \"biggest settlement anywhere in legal history.\" Bottom line:\nSteve Jobs is an avid Beatles fan, and some say that an alliance between the two companies would give iTunes needed differentiation in the online-music market. But others say rumors of an impending settlement are unfounded and question whether a big payout would make good business sense for Jobs' company. More stories on this topic\nMusic industry sources have said representatives of the surviving Beatles are at last discussing ideas for digital distribution with online companies but are asking for as much as $15 million for six months of exclusive rights to the music. That high price has some observers betting that Apple Computer might be the only company ready to pay, particularly if the payment comes attached to a legal settlement in which millions of dollars are already changing hands.\n\"In a market where differentiation is hard to come by, any means of differentiation is going to help,\" said Jupiter Research analyst Michael Gartenberg. \"It would not surprise me if, as a part of a (legal) arrangement, they would come up with some kind of deal for the store.\"\nAttorneys for both sides declined to comment on the status of the case. Apple Computer reiterated its previous statement on the issue, saying the two companies \"have differing interpretations of this agreement and will need to ask a court to resolve this dispute.\"\nThe latest round of speculation stems from a report in Hollywood trade magazine Daily Variety last week that a deal between Apple Computer and Apple Corps might be near and that one legal source expected it to be the \"biggest settlement anywhere in legal history.\"\nHowever, music industry sources call that report baseless.\nLegal experts separately question whether the settlement would really be among the largest non-class-action settlements, as Variety reported.\n\"I would take that proposition with a big grain of salt,\" said Lee Bromberg, an intellectual-property lawyer and founding partner at Boston-based law firm Bromberg & Sunstein. \"I can't imagine it is going to be the biggest settlement we've ever heard of.\"\nThe trademark litigation between Apple Computer and Apple Corps could conceivably stretch on for many more months, or even years, legal experts said.\nThe Beatles' business operation sued Jobs' company a year ago, more than a decade after the computer company paid more than $26 million to settle the first trademark lawsuit with Beatles representatives. That settlement included an agreement that laid out the respective ways each company could use the Apple name. The release of iTunes had violated that agreement, Apple Corps contends.\nAccording to a recent court decision quoting the 1991 settlement agreement, the Beatles were given the right to use the Apple name wherever their songs were involved and on \"any current or future creative works whose principal content is music.\" However, Apple Computer was allowed to use its brand on \"goods or services...used to reproduce, run, play or otherwise deliver such content,\" as long as it was not on physical media such as a CD.\nThe idea that Apple might pair any settlement with a deal to bring the Beatles to iTunes is seen as a natural for Jobs, who is an avowed Beatles fan. Jobs has been known to feature the band's music when demonstrating Apple products, and the company included songs from two Beatles CDs on the iPod devices it gave to reporters when the music player debuted in 2001.\nBut money could be a sticking point no matter what the size of a settlement in the trademark lawsuit.\nAccording to sources in the online music business, representatives of the Beatles have talked to a handful of digital music companies about exclusive rights to the Fab Four's music, for a limited time period. One idea floated has been to create an online ministore for the band, where song downloads might share digital shelf space with DVDs, videos and interviews.\nApple does not create separate Web-based stores, but it has created a separate category for Disney works inside the iTunes store. Some industry insiders have speculated that if the Beatles want \"premium\" treatment, Apple could similarly create a separate, high-profile category for the band. And although the computer company doesn't yet sell videos or DVDs, it does offer spoken word content, such as interviews, through a partnership with Audible.\nPreliminary discussions across the online music industry have not gone far, however. Companies from Microsoft down have decided that the price on such a Beatles deal--which some have said has ranged as high as $25 million--was too steep.\nEven a $15 million payment to Apple Corps would be difficult for a digital music company to recoup quickly. Songs that sell for 99 cents online typically require about 75 cents in payments to the associated music labels and music publishers. Nearly 15 cents typically goes for overhead, leaving online song stores with a margin of about 10 cents per song at best.\nThat would require a store to sell 150 million songs to break even on a $15 million payment to Apple Corps--a steep goal, even if the deal was ultimately responsible for a blitz of publicity.\nBut of course, it may all depend on how big a Beatles fan Jobs really is.\n\"That may, in fact, be a big driver to a settlement in this case,\" Bromberg said, but he cautioned that Jobs may want to curb his enthusiasm. \"If he looks too eager on that score, it's going to cost him.\"\nHave an opinion on this story?

[ { "language": "en", "title": "Vista in danger of being bypassed by businesses", "text": "It will be one year that Windows Vista has been available to businesses on Nov. 30, yet many companies still are waiting until the release of Vista's first service pack to upgrade. But with Microsoft planning to release the next version of Windows, code-named Windows 7, in late 2009 or 2010, there remains a strong possibility that companies might skip over Vista altogether in favor of the next release of Windows.\nMicrosoft on Wednesday provided an optimistic update on the state of Vista now that third-party companies have released more drivers and applications for the OS, smoothing over compatibility issues that plagued early adopters.\nAccording to Mike Nash, a vice president of product management for Windows client, the experience of running Vista on hardware that is certified for it \"is a lot better today than it was a month ago and certainly a lot better than it was [last November].\"\nMicrosoft has said it will release a roll-up of updates for Vista, Windows Vista Service Pack (SP) 1, in the first quarter of next year, in the same time frame it will release Windows Server 2008. Microsoft is hoping businesses upgrade to both products simultaneously, and it's expected that many companies that have factored Vista into their enterprise planning budgets will do just that.\nNash said that Microsoft signed the highest number of enterprise licenses for Windows desktop ever at the end of fiscal year 2007, a fact he said bodes well for Vista enterprise adoption. \"They wouldn't be licensing Windows desktop if they didn't have the intent to deploy Vista,\" he said.\nBut despite Microsoft's rosy view on the future of business adoption of Vista, users of the OS said there are still enough problems with it that some companies may opt to wait until Windows 7 to update their worker desktops. Microsoft has said little about Windows 7 except it's in the works and should be out about three years after Vista, which was released to consumers in January following its business rollout.\nUsers complain that Vista doesn't run well with older hardware -- either on PCs or with connected devices like printers that are a year or two old. Even on PCs that are supposedly meant to be optimized for Vista, there are still odd performance and compatibility issues with certain devices, applications and OS features that make using it a less than optimal experience.\nFor this reason, one East Coast IT consultant who specializes in Microsoft products said that unless Windows Vista SP1 really smooths over the problems people are having with Vista, \"there's a good chance many people will hold on to XP until the next version of Windows.\"\n\"They're just so many little usability issues,\" said the consultant, who asked not to be named, but who has nearly 20 years of experience with Microsoft software. \"I can just imagine when the next one comes out, Microsoft will actually get it right and everyone will breathe a sigh of relief.\"\nMichael Cherry, an analyst with Directions on Microsoft who said he has experienced his own frustrations with Vista's quirky performance issues, agreed that if Microsoft releases Windows 7 on schedule, there may be \"less of a need to upgrade to Vista\" for businesses that follow the typical \"every other release\" rule for Windows.\nIn Cherry's opinion, Windows XP Service Pack 2, a major security release for XP, was less a service pack than an upgrade to Windows. Businesses running this version of Windows may choose to bypass Vista and opt to install Windows 7 instead if it is released in the next few years, depending on where they are in their hardware upgrade cycle. The release of a third service pack for XP, which Microsoft has confirmed is in the works, supports this theory, since it adds \"a couple more years\" to the viability of XP in the enterprise.\nStill, one Microsoft partner thought that the possibility that businesses won't be adopting Vista in droves until 2008 means it may be Windows 7 that will be skipped over, not Vista.\nBrian Randell, a senior consultant with MCW Technologies in Los Angeles, acknowledged it was initially rough going with Vista because of hardware incompatibility problems. However, he said that these issues were more the fault of hardware vendors not preparing their products for Vista than Microsoft doing anything wrong.\n\"Microsoft delivered a really solid OS,\" he said. \"The fact is, for as long as Vista was in beta, the hardware vendors didn't seem to have their act together.\"\nRandell said that even companies that work closely with Microsoft have heard little about Windows 7, and that most are concerned more with what effect Vista SP1 will have on business adoption of the OS than on any future releases.", "url": "http://www.itworld.com/Comp/2218/071115vistaskip/", "archive_url": "https://web.archive.org/web/20071118193343/http://www.itworld.com/Comp/2218/071115vistaskip/" } ]

[ { "language": "pt", "title": "Crise na Argentina pode levar à redução das exportações brasileiras", "text": "A crise na Argentina pode levar à redução das exportações brasileiras de carros e peças para o país vizinho, segundo avaliação de especialistas. Atualmente, a participação da Argentina nas exportações brasileiras é de cerca de 8% e a maior parte é do setor de veículos. De janeiro a abril, as exportações totalizaram US$ 74,299 bilhões. Desse total, US$ 6,060 bilhões são referentes à Argentina. Dos produtos exportados para a Argentina, cerca de 33% são automóveis.\nA Associação Nacional dos Fabricantes de Veículos Automotores (Anfavea) informou que ainda não tem uma previsão de quanto podem cair as exportações com a crise. A associação disse apenas que 76% das exportações do setor vão para a Argentina, seguido do México (7%), Chile (5%), Uruguai (4%), Colômbia 3% e Peru (2%).\nEm crise econômica, a Argentina decidiu recorrer ao Fundo Monetário Internacional (FMI) para equilibrar a situação financeira do país. A decisão foi tomada depois da disparada do dólar. O governo quer obter respaldo financeiro para acalmar os ânimos dos investidores e frear a saída de capitais do país, cuja economia, segundo o presidente argentino, Maurício Macri, é uma das mais dependentes de recursos estrangeiros. Link 1\nO ex-secretário de Comércio Exterior Welber Barral lembra que a Argentina é o principal importador de produtos manufaturados no Brasil. “Os principais produtos são automóveis e peças de carro. Evidentemente, uma crise na Argentina afeta esses setores”, disse. Para Barral, se a Argentina conseguir o empréstimo no FMI, o nível de especulação cambial diminuirá, o que fará com que o país não diminua muito as importações.\nEntretanto, Barral disse que o efeito da crise argentina no Brasil deve ficar restrito a esse segmento, sem contagiar toda a economia brasileira. “O Brasil tem reservas internacionais altas, inflação relativamente sob controle. Então, o Brasil não está na mesma situação da Argentina. Mas em termos de exportações, sim. O Brasil pode ser afetado pela queda das exportações”, disse.\nSegundo Barral, a competitividade do setor automotivo brasileiro é maior na Argentina por conta do Mercado Comum do Sul (Mercosul). “Os produtos brasileiros não pagam imposto de importação na Argentina”, explicou. Além disso, ele disse que o mercado argentino é maior do que de outros países. “Enquanto na Argentina tem um mercado de 42 milhões de pessoas, no Uruguai, por exemplo, são 3 milhões”, disse.\nA pesquisadora do Instituto Brasileiro de Economia (Ibre) da Fundação Getulio Vargas (FGV) Lia Baker Valls Pereira também avalia que o efeito da crise argentina no Brasil se restringirá à balança comercial. “No Brasil, a exportação não é o principal elemento do PIB (Produto Interno Bruto, soma de todos os bens e serviços produzidos no país). A Argentina é a terceira importadora do Brasil. É muito localizado, afetaria mais a exportação de automóvel”, avaliou a pesquisadora.\n“O empréstimo do FMI vem cheio de restrições. A Argentina tem um problema de déficit fiscal, déficit externo, tem inflação alta. A Argentina vai se comprometer a um controle inflacionário e fiscal mais austero”, disse. Lia acrescentou que o presidente argentino Mauricio Macri optou por fazer um ajuste gradual na economia, mas não conseguiu.\nNo último dia 8, o ministro da Fazenda, Eduardo Guardia, afirmou não há possibilidade de \"contágio\" da crise argentina no Brasil. “Nós temos uma situação externa extremamente confortável, um déficit em conta-corrente pequeno, que é financiado por investimentos diretos estrangeiros. Temos reservas extremamente elevadas, de US$ 383 bilhões. Não vejo nenhum impacto. A situação [do Brasil] é completamente diferente da Argentina\", disse.", "url": "http://agenciabrasil.ebc.com.br/economia/noticia/2018-05/crise-na-argentina-pode-levar-reducao-das-exportacoes-brasileiras", "archive_url": "https://web.archive.org/web/20180514094352/http://agenciabrasil.ebc.com.br/economia/noticia/2018-05/crise-na-argentina-pode-levar-reducao-das-exportacoes-brasileiras" } ]

The latest reports show that a thin sliver of ice attaching it to the Antarctic's Charcot Island is rapidly collapsing and threatening to break.\nThe Wilkins shelf is about half the size of Scotland, or the same size as the US state of Connecticut. It is the largest slab of ice so far to disintegrate and retreat in the Antarctic. Pictures from the European Space Agency show that fresh rifts have appeared in Wilkins' 'ice bridge' to Charcot Island and that a large chunk of ice has broken away, though the shelf still remains attached to other pieces of land. ESA estimated that the loss of the ice bridge could see the northern half of Wilkins break free, representing up to 1,400 square miles of ice floating off on the ocean in a gigantic ice berg.\nThough the collapse of Wilkins shelf will not raise sea levels directly - as ice shelves float on the sea surface - its demise is a warning sign of potentially disastrous changes in the earth's climate. Change at Wilkins has come fast, often taking scientists by surprise with the speed of the break-up. In February last year a 164- square-mile chunk broke off. Then in May another slab of ice, this time measuring 62 square miles, fell away. The ice shelf has lost a total of 694 square miles over the past 12 months, representing some 14 per cent of its size. That shrank the vital ice bridge to just 984 yards at its narrowest location. Now that bridge too is coming under huge strains.\nThe news comes hot on the heels of the release of a survey by British and American researchers warning of the perilous state of Antarctic ice shelves and fast melting glaciers, and laying the blame firmly on global warming.", "url": "http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/2009/apr/05/ice-shelf-wilkins-antarctic", "archive_url": "https://web.archive.org/web/20090406200316/http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/2009/apr/05/ice-shelf-wilkins-antarctic" }, { "language": "en", "title": "Ice shelf about to break away from Antarctic coast", "text": "Ice shelf about to break away from Antarctic coast\nPARIS (AP) — A massive ice shelf anchored to the Antarctic coast by a narrow and quickly deteriorating ice bridge could break away soon, the European Space Agency warned Friday.\nThe Paris-based agency said satellite images show the bridge that connects the Wilkins Ice Shelf to Charcot and Latady Islands \"looks set to collapse.\"\n\"The beginning of what appears to be the demise of the ice bridge began this week when new rifts\" appeared and a large block of ice broke away, it said.\nThe Wilkins Ice Shelf — which like the rest of Antarctic's ice sheet \"was formed by thousands of years of accumulated and compacted snow\" — had been stable for most of the last century before it began retreating in the 1990s, the statement said.\nThe shelf, which was originally of Jamaica or the U.S. state of Connecticut, is located on the western side of the Antarctic Peninsula, which thrusts up from the continent toward the southern tip of South America.\nOriginally covering about 5,000 square miles (13,000 square kilometers), the ice shelf lost 14 percent of its mass last year alone, the statement quotes a scientist Angelika Humbert of Germany's Munster University as saying.\nIn two 2008 incidents, large chunks of the ice bridge fell away, shaving it down to just 985 yards (900 meters) across at its narrowest, the statement said.\nAs a result, \"In the past months, we have observed the ice bridge deforming and its narrowest location acting as a kind of hinge,\" Humbert is quoted as saying.\nScientist are examining whether global warming is behind the shelf's breakup, the statement said.

[ { "language": "en", "title": "George Floyd: Minneapolis council pledges to dismantle police department", "text": "Image copyright Getty Images Image caption Demonstrators have defended the dismantling of the police department in Minneapolis\nA majority of Minneapolis City Council has pledged to dismantle the local police department, a significant move amid nationwide protests sparked by George Floyd's death last month.\nNine of the 13 councillors said a \"new model of public safety\" would be created in a city where law enforcement has been accused of racism.\nMayor Jacob Frey earlier opposed the move, drawing boos from the crowds.\nActivists, who for years have defended such a step, called it a turning point.\nBut commentators say Minneapolis can now expect a long and complex debate over policing.\nMr Floyd's death in police custody triggered mass protests against racism and police brutality. Security measures across the country were lifted on Sunday as unrest started to ease.\nThousands of people are expected to gather on Monday for a public viewing of Mr Floyd's body in Houston, his home city in Texas before he moved to Minneapolis, Minnesota. A private funeral will be held on Tuesday.\nA video of Mr Floyd, a 46-year-old African American, pinned to the floor with a white police officer kneeling on his neck for almost nine minutes sparked worldwide outrage.\nOfficer Derek Chauvin has been dismissed and charged with second-degree murder. He will make his first court appearance later on Monday.\nThree other officers who were at the scene have also been sacked and charged with aiding and abetting.\nWhat did Minneapolis City Council members say?\nThe nine councillors read a statement to hundreds of protesters on Sunday.\n\"We are here because here in Minneapolis and in cities across the United States it is clear that our existing system of policing and public safety is not keeping our communities safe,\" City Council President Lisa Bender was quoted as saying.\n\"Our efforts at incremental reform have failed. Period.\"\nMs Bender said details of the overhaul plan needed to be discussed further, adding that she would try to shift police funding towards community based strategies.\nMeanwhile, councillor Alondra Cano tweeted that \"a veto-proof majority\" in the council had agreed that the city police department was \"not reformable and that we're going to end the current policing system\".\nMedia playback is unsupported on your device Media caption The history of police violence in the US\nLast week, Minnesota launched a civil rights investigation of the Minneapolis Police Department, with Governor Tim Walz saying he wanted to root out \"systemic racism that is generations deep\".\nThe city council later voted for a number of policing changes, including the ban on chokeholds and neck restraints by police officers.\nWhat has the reaction been?\nThe reform plan in Minneapolis sets up what is likely to be a long and complicated debate over new ways of policing across the US. But the process of setting up a new system will probably take months, and is not guaranteed because of the mayor's opposition.\nReacting to the announcement, Kandace Montgomery, the director of the Minnesota-based campaign group Black Vision, said: \"It shouldn't have taken so much death to get us here. We're safer without armed, unaccountable patrols supported by the state hunting black people.\"\nOn Monday, Democrats in Congress are expected to present sweeping legislation on police reform.\nMore on George Floyd's death\nWhat's happening elsewhere?\nNew York City Mayor Bill de Blasio had already said he would divert money from the city's police department to social services.\n\"Defund the police\" was a rallying cry during the latest street protests, that occasionally spilled into violence and looting.\nMedia playback is unsupported on your device Media caption The US's history of racial inequality has paved the way for modern day police brutality\n\"Defunding\" advocates have for years been condemning what they describe as the aggressive militarised policing in the US.\nThey argue that police departments' budgets should be slashed and funds diverted to social programmes to avoid unnecessary confrontation and heal the racial divide.\nEntire city police departments have been disbanded before in the country: in Compton, California, in 2000, and 12 years later in Camden, New Jersey. In both cases they were replaced with bigger new forces that covered local counties.", "url": "https://www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-52960227", "archive_url": "https://web.archive.org/web/20200608062200/https://www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-52960227" }, { "language": "fr", "title": "Après la mort de George Floyd, plusieurs métropoles restructurent leur police", "text": "Publié le 8 juin 2020 à 6h16 Mis à jour le 8 juin 2020 à 17h39\nCe n'est sans doute pas le dernier hommage rendu à George Floyd. Victime de la police il y a deux semaines à Minneapolis, cet Afro-Américain de 46 ans devait être enterré ce lundi dans sa ville natale de Houston. Mais les manifestations continuent d'agiter le pays tout entier. Ce week-end, les grandes villes ont réuni des centaines de milliers de personnes dans des manifestations pacifiques. La tension est retombée mais la foule exige toujours des mesures concrètes. Et les villes dirigées par des démocrates réfléchissent à une vie sans police, ou en tout cas une police qui serait sous contrôle .\nMinneapolis a pris les devants. La ville où George Floyd est mort a tout simplement voté, dimanche, le démantèlement de ses forces de police. « Notre engagement est de mettre fin à la relation toxique de notre ville avec la police de Minneapolis, d'en finir avec la police telle que nous la connaissons, et de recréer des systèmes de sécurité publique qui nous maintiendront en sécurité », a déclaré la présidente du conseil municipal, Lisa Bender. Le budget alloué à la police de la ville sera transféré à des projets s'appuyant sur la population et le conseil va étudier la manière de remplacer la police actuelle.\n« Un avenir sans police »\n« L'idée de ne pas avoir de police n'est certainement pas un projet de court terme », a précisé Lisa Bender. Les membres du conseil ont aussi fait savoir qu'ils n'avaient « pas toutes les réponses sur ce à quoi un avenir sans police pourrait ressembler ». La ville va toutefois organiser une grande consultation dans les mois à venir. Ces derniers jours, la police de Minneapolis a perdu plusieurs contrats. Les écoles de la ville ont notamment décidé de se passer de leurs services.\nMinneapolis a été le foyer d'un mouvement de contestation qui s'est étendu à tout le pays, après la mort, il y a deux semaines, de George Floyd , un Afro-Américain tué par une patrouille de police. La ville, cosmopolite, avait mis en place une politique progressiste de lutte contre les inégalités, mais les cas de violences policières se succédaient depuis des années.\nDes réductions budgétaires\nMinneapolis n'est pas la seule municipalité à défier ses propres forces de police. D'autres, dirigées aussi par des démocrates, ont aussi pris des mesures drastiques. La ville de New York a décidé de transférer le budget de la police à des services sociaux et d'aide envers les jeunes. Son maire, Bill De Blasio, est décidé également à établir plus de transparence pour les services de police, à bannir les étouffements et à refondre complètement les programmes de formation.\nLe maire de Los Angeles réfléchit à des actions similaires. Ce à quoi la police de la ville a répondu que « toute réduction budgétaire affecterait non seulement les opérations de police, mais aussi les habitants eux-mêmes ».\nUne action est aussi menée au niveau fédéral. Le «black caucus», un groupe d'une cinquantaine de parlementaires afro-américains, a présenté lundi un arsenal de mesures visant à uniformiser les pratiques policières au niveau national. Ils recommandent notamment l'usage des caméras embarquées par tous les policiers, la fin du profilage racial et des étouffements, le contrôle de la police par des instances civiles, les poursuites systématiques de policiers impliqués dans des crimes ou encore la création d'un fichier national des violences policières.

Hier, un couple gay a saisi la justice, à la suite du refus du maire de leur commune de célébrer leur mariage, désormais autorisé par la loi. Cette plainte a été déposée par Jean-Michel Martin et Guy Martineau-Espel. Farouchement déterminés à se dire oui, ces pionniers (« malgré nous ») habitent Arcangues (64), petite commune du Pays basque où repose en paix le ténor Luis Mariano, qui aimait les hommes. Malgré la promulgation de la loi sur le mariage pour tous, le 18 mai, le maire, Jean-Michel Colo, ainsi que ses six adjoints, leur opposent un non catégorique depuis près d’un mois. Et ce malgré la proposition de deux conseillères municipales disposées à recevoir une délégation de pouvoir du maire afin de marier des couples légalement.\n« Discrimination »\nMe Isabelle Duguet est l’avocate des deux hommes. Elle explique la démarche de ses clients : « Ils souhaitaient se marier pour se protéger avec la pension de réversion ou l’héritage, c’est tout. Leur plainte est déposée contre le maire et ses adjoints pour cause de discrimination, ici fondée sur l’orientation sexuelle. » « Je vais également engager une assignation en référé du maire et de ses adjoints, poursuit Me Duguet. Nous voulons que le juge civil de Bayonne contraigne les élus d’Arcangues à célébrer ce mariage. »\nCe soir dernier délai\nD’après l’avocate, ses clients ne sont « informés de la situation que par la presse ». « Ils ne voulaient pas de pub autour de leur mariage, pose-t-elle. Ils ont attendu et attendu, sans volonté de nuire au maire, espérant simplement qu’il entendrait raison… Hélas, M. Colo a clairement dit qu’il irait au bout. » Reste, désormais, la question de la révocation ou de la suspension de l’édile.\n« Au départ, nous n’avions pas fixé de délai au maire, explique le sous-préfet de Bayonne, Patrick Dallennes. Finalement, il a été convenu qu’il se prononcerait demain soir [ce soir, NDLR] au plus tard. Après quoi, une procédure disciplinaire sera engagée si le ministère nous donne son feu vert. Dans l’hypothèse où le maire camperait sur ses positions, cette procédure fonctionnerait sur le principe du débat contradictoire [le maire avancera ses arguments, NDLR]. S’il le souhaite, le ministère peut ensuite suspendre le maire, tandis qu’une éventuelle révocation s’opère en Conseil des ministres. »\nHier avait justement lieu un Conseil des ministres.

Para ello, se utilizan unas páginas especiales, las páginas de categorías, situadas en el espacio de nombres \"Categoría:\", y enlaces a ellas. Así, en la página de la categoría aparecen listados todos los artículos que pertenecen a ella, y en cada uno de esos artículos aparece al pie del artículo un enlace a la página de la categoría. Esto es una forma muy cómoda de tener listas de artículos ordenadas y estructuradas de forma jerárquica.\neditar] Categorías heredadas de una plantilla\nCuando una plantilla contiene una categoría, no sólo la plantilla, sino todas las páginas que la contienen quedan clasificadas dentro de esa categoría. Por ejemplo, la plantilla {{no neutral}} está en la Categoría:Wikinoticias:No neutral, por lo que todo artículo donde aparezca esta plantilla aparece (automáticamente) en esa categoría también.\nHay un problema cuando se cambian las categorías de una plantilla, ya que las categorías de una página son las que ella tenía al momento de su última edición, y los cambios en las categorías de las plantillas que utiliza solo tienen efecto en la siguiente edición de la página.\nSi se desea actualizar las categorías de una página en esos casos se puede agregar al URL el parámetro \"action=purge\", por ejemplo, para el artículo TeX: http://es.wikimedia.org/wiki/TeX?action=purge.\neditar] Lista de páginas por categorizar\nEn Especial:Uncategorizedpages hay una lista de artículos que aún no pertenecen a ninguna categoría.

Apr 2006 09:51, ergänzt 14:23\nFoto: dpa Im Prozess um einen so genannten Ehrenmord an einer Deutsch-Türkin hat das Berliner Landgericht den Bruder des Opfers zu einer langjährigen Haftstrafe verurteilt. Die Staatsanwaltschaft legte Revision ein.\nNach dem so genannten Ehrenmord an der Deutsch- Türkin Hatin Sürücü hat das Berliner Landgericht einen ihrer Brüder zu einer Jugendstrafe von neun Jahren und drei Monaten verurteilt. Der zur Tatzeit 18-Jährige war laut Urteil vom Donnerstag für den Tod seiner Schwester verantwortlich. Er hatte bereits zu Prozessbeginn gestanden, seine Schwester im Februar 2005 mit drei Schüssen in den Kopf getötet zu haben.\nKeine Haftverschonung im Ehrenmord-Prozess 11. Nov 2005 18:51 Geständnis im «Ehrenmord»-Prozess 14. Sep 2005 15:30 Von der Zwangsheirat zum Mord 03. Mär 2005 06:30, ergänzt 06:35 Nach Ansicht des Gerichtes stieß ihr westlicher Lebensstil in der Familie auf Ablehnung. Die beiden mitangeklagten älteren Brüder wurden freigesprochen. Ihnen konnte keine Tatbeteiligung nachgewiesen werden. Foto: dpa Dies sei ein ganz besonderer Mordfall gewesen, urteilten die Richter und sprachen von einer «unfassbaren Dimension». «Die lebenslustige, junge Frau wurde Opfer, weil sie ihr Leben lebte, so wie sie es für richtig hielt - dafür wurde sie erschossen von ihrem Bruder und das alles mitten unter uns», sagte der Vorsitzende Richter Michael Degreif. Mit dem Strafmaß blieb das Gericht unter der höchsten Jugendstrafe von zehn Jahren. Die Staatsanwaltschaft legte kurz nach dem Urteil Revision beim Bundesgerichtshof eingelegt. Die Anklage sah den Mord als gemeinsame Tat der Brüder von Hatin Sürükü an.\nChronologie: Stationen des Verfahrens Der Fall hatte bundesweit Entsetzen hervorgerufen und eine Debatte über Zwangsehen und Parallelwelten von Ausländern in Deutschland ausgelöst. Die in Deutschland geborene junge Frau hatte sich nach einer Zwangsverheiratung in der Türkei von ihrem Mann getrennt und nach der Rückkehr nach Berlin ein eigenständiges Leben mit ihrem Sohn begonnen.\nTragik des Falles Hatin Sürücü sei aber auch eine einsame Frau gewesen, die den Kontakt zu ihrer Familie wieder herstellen wollte, sagte der Richter. Hier liege die besondere Tragik des Falles. Durch die Annäherung der Schwester habe sich bei dem jüngeren Bruder der Druck verstärkt, dies zu verhindern. Letztlich habe eine «Mischung aus überlieferten, traditionellen, fest verankerten Vorstellungen von Familienehre in ostanatolischen Familien» und einem eigenen Islamverständnis des jungen Mannes zu der Bluttat geführt. Er habe die Familienehre aufrechterhalten wollen. Die Lebensweise seiner Schwester habe er verachtet. «Die Tat war gedanklich lange geplant. Es trieb ihn schon lange, dass er es tun müsse, weil es die anderen nicht taten», sagte Richter Degreif. Er habe die beschädigte Ordnung wieder herstellen wollen. Wie die Tat genau vorbereitet wurde, ließ sich in dem Prozess nicht klären. Hatin Sürücü starb an dem eiskalten Februarabend unweit ihrer Wohnung in Berlin-Tempelhof an einer Bushaltestelle. Dorthin hatte sie ihren Bruder nach einem Besuch begleitet. Ihr Mörder hatte sie laut Urteil noch gefragt, ob sie ihre Sünden bereue, bevor er aus nächster Nähe abdrückte. Die Pistole wurde nie gefunden.\nZeugenschutzprogramm Die beiden älteren Brüder hatten eine Beteiligung stets bestritten. Laut Urteil hatten die beiden keine Kontakte zu ihrer Schwester. Die Anklage hatte wegen gemeinschaftlichen Mordes für die beiden Älteren lebenslange Haft gefordert. Der inzwischen 26-Jährige sollte die Waffe besorgt, der ein Jahr jüngere Bruder den Tatort überwacht haben. Dafür gab es laut Urteil keine unmittelbaren Beweise. Aussage habe gegen Aussage gestanden. Es gab nur eine Zeugin vom Hörensagen. Die Anklage hatte sich im wesentlichen auf Hinweise der Ex-Freundin des Täters gestützt. Die Schülerin wurde in ein Zeugenschutzprogramm aufgenommen und lebt an einem geheimem Ort. Sie hatte berichtet, dass sich ihr damaliger Freund - der Schütze - ihr anvertraut habe. Mit dem Strafmaß für den Todesschützen liegt das Gericht nur gering unter der Forderung der Staatsanwaltschaft, die neun Jahre und acht Monate Haft beantragt hatte. Mit den Freisprüchen wurde den Anträgen der Verteidigung entsprochen. Die Staatsanwaltschaft will jetzt einen Revisionsantrag prüfen.

He hopes the business plan, called Dell 2.0, will reverse the flagging fortunes of the biggest computer maker in the world. Recent woes have included a poor quarterly profits report and exploding laptop batteries.\nDell had to recall 4.1 million laptop batteries in August after several of its laptops exploded into flames earlier this year.\nRollins admitted the company needs to \"broaden customer relationships by listening and evaluating more\".\nChairman Michael Dell told silicon.com sister site ZDNet UK: \"We weren't living up to the standards our customers were expecting in some areas of our business. We've [therefore] announced significant investments.\"\nChief executive Kevin Rollins said the change will \"involve deepening customer relationships, and customising the entire customer experience, placing a greater emphasis on services tailored to individual customers\".\nRollins admitted the company needs to \"broaden customer relationships by listening and evaluating more\". He added: \"This is a shift from a transactional model to value created over the lifetime of a customer relationship.\"\nDell plans to invest more in its sales channels, both in sales contacts and its online presence, in its website front and back end. The company also wants to expand the scope of Dell Connect, which enables a Dell technician to take control of a customer's system should they be encountering problems.\nDell has also reduced its supply base, to \"reduce variability in component quality\". It has asked its core suppliers to perform ongoing reliability testing, so it becomes aware of issues \"faster than the general industry\", according to Brad Anderson, senior vice president and general manager of Dell's product line.\nThe company will also focus on design - something it has been accused of neglecting in the drive to increase efficiency.\nOver recent years, Dell's customer service ratings have become consistently worse.\nBrad Anderson, senior vice president and general manager of the product line said Dell made a decision to address customer dissatisfaction a year ago, in recognition of ongoing service problems.\nAnderson said: \"We made a decision six to 12 months ago because we weren't pleased with our internal and external customer satisfaction indices.\"\nAnderson said he \"would not go through the litany\" of problems with Dell service levels but said that in future Dell would provide better quality of support. \"Should you have any issue, we will handle it properly.

This has raised questions about the country's tolerance for minorities and freedom of expression as it seeks to join the European Union.\nPolice said he was carrying both a pistol and a white hat that had become a symbol of the murder investigation since the press began broadcasting close-up security camera images of Samast last Saturday .\nDink, 53, was shot from behind a number of times at the entrance of Agos, the bilingual Turkish-Armenian weekly.\nPolice said six other men had also been brought in for questioning.\n\"The suspect went into the Agos office at midday but wasn't allowed to speak to Dink,\" Muammer Guler, the Istanbul governor leading the investigation, told the Sabah daily. \"He then waited outside, up to the time of the murder, about two hours later. We don't think a professional would have behaved like this.\"\nAllegedly a member of the youth branch of a small right wing nationalist party, Samast told interrogators in Samsun that he killed Dink \"because he said Turkish blood was dirty blood.\"\nDink was a respected intellectual and an outspoken critic of Turkey's continuing denial that the mass killing of Armenians in 1915 amounted to genocide and in October 2005 was sentenced to six months in prison for 'insulting Turkishness'.\n\"The bullets aimed at Hrant Dink were shot into all of us\", the Turkish prime minister Tayyip Erdogan said in one of several televised statements. In the last editorial Dink wrote before his death, he referred to his trial under the code as a turning point in his life. Because of it, he wrote, \"a significant segment of the population ... view Hrant Dink as someone 'denigrating Turkishness'.\"\nInterviewed in the daily Milliyet yesterday, Dink's brother Orhan Dink said the family had seriously considered fleeing Turkey after Dink had received hate mail for months.\n\"We told ourselves this was our country, though\", he said. \"So we discussed security. We even thought of getting a bullet-proof vest brought over from Germany. But the murderer moved faster than us.\"\nHe added that there was absolutely no question of the family leaving now. \"We've lost already. We've already made our sacrifice. Leaving now would be a betrayal of our brother.\"\nIstanbul governor Muammer Guler yesterday rejected accusations that the government had not done enough to protect Dink. Turkey has been worrying for weeks that the newly Democrat-heavy US Congress may pass a law recognising the mass murder of Ottoman Armenians as a genocide.

Several sword fittings discovered in the hoard exhibit artwork known as Salin's Style II. This style of animal-related artwork showed beasts intertwined in complex, symmetrical patterns. Examples of this style were also found at Sutton Hoo. Anglo-Saxon helmets are very rare - only four helmets like the one from which the above cheek plate is taken have survived. Despite the intricate artwork, this helmet would have been used in battle, the decoration marking out the wearer's status. BACK {current} of {total} NEXT The UK's largest haul of Anglo-Saxon treasure has been discovered buried in a field in Staffordshire. Experts say the collection of 1,500 gold and silver pieces, which may date to the 7th Century, is unparalleled in size and worth \"a seven-figure sum\". It has been declared treasure by South Staffordshire coroner Andrew Haigh, meaning it belongs to the Crown. Terry Herbert, who found it on farmland using a metal detector, said it \"was what metal detectorists dream of\". It could take more than a year for it to be valued.

Leslie Webster, former keeper at the British Museum's Department of Prehistory and Europe, said: \"This is going to alter our perceptions of Anglo-Saxon England as radically, if not more so, as the Sutton Hoo discoveries. \"(It is) absolutely the equivalent of finding a new Lindisfarne Gospels or Book of Kells.\" The Book of Kells and Lindisfarne Gospels are intricately illuminated manuscripts of the four New Testament Gospels dating from the 9th and 8th Centuries. 'Just unbelievable' Mr Herbert, 55, of Burntwood in Staffordshire, who has been metal detecting for 18 years, came across the hoard as he searched land belonging to a farmer friend over five days in July. The exact location has not been disclosed. \"I have this phrase that I say sometimes; 'spirits of yesteryear take me where the coins appear', but on that day I changed coins to gold,\" he said. \"I don't know why I said it that day but I think somebody was listening and directed me to it.

But the vast amount there is just unbelievable.\" BBC correspondent Nick Higham said the hoard would be valued by the British Museum and the money passed on to Mr Herbert and the landowner. A total of 1,345 items have been examined by experts, although the list includes 56 clods of earth which have been X-rayed and are known to contain further metal artefacts. This means the total number of items found is likely to rise to about 1,500. Following the initial find, Alex Jones, director of Birmingham Archaeology and his colleagues were invited to excavate the site, Birmingham University said. Please turn on JavaScript. Media requires JavaScript to play. Mr Jones said it was fantastic news for the region and raised the importance of heritage research. \"Being a partner in one of the most exciting archaeological discoveries of our time is something we can all be proud of,\" he said. Experts have so far established that there were at least 650 items of gold in the haul, weighing more than 5kgs (11lb), and 530 silver objects totalling more than 1kg (2.2lb) in weight. Copper alloy, garnets and glass objects were also discovered at the site. Duncan Slarke, finds liaison officer for Staffordshire, was the first professional to see the hoard, which contains warfare paraphernalia, including sword pommel caps and hilt plates inlaid with precious stones. He said he was \"virtually speechless\" when he saw the items. \"I saw boxes full of gold, items exhibiting the very finest Anglo-Saxon workmanship,\" he added. Roger Bland, head of portable antiquities and treasure at the British Museum, said: \"The most we can say is, I think we're fairly confident it is likely to be a seven-figure sum.\" 'Truly remarkable' The collection is currently being kept in secure storage at Birmingham Museum and Art Gallery but a selection of the items is to be displayed at the museum from Friday until 13 October. Dr Kevin Leahy, who has been cataloguing the find for the Portable Antiquities Scheme, said it was \"a truly remarkable collection\". He said it had been found in the heartland of the Anglo-Saxon kingdom of Mercia. \"All the archaeologists who've worked with it have been awestruck,\" he added. \"It's been actually quite scary working on this material to be in the presence of greatness.\" He said the most striking feature of the find was that it was almost totally weapon fittings with no feminine objects such as dress fittings, brooches or pendants. \"Swords and sword fittings were very important in the Anglo-Saxon period,\" Dr Leahy added. \"It looks like a collection of trophies, but it is impossible to say if the hoard was the spoils from a single battle or a long and highly successful military career. \"We also cannot say who the original, or the final, owners were, who took it from them, why they buried it or when. \"It will be debated for decades.\"\nBookmark with: Delicious\nDigg\nreddit\nFacebook\nStumbleUpon What are these?

Montré du doigt à l’extérieur, le Parti communiste va être également sur la défensive sur le plan intérieur. Il ne devrait pas atteindre l’objectif qu’il s’était fixé en 2012 : doubler le revenu par habitant entre 2010 et 2020. Il faudrait pour cela que la croissance atteigne environ 6 % cette année. Nul n’y croit.\nAutre conséquence : il n’est pas certain non plus que la Chine parvienne à mettre un terme cette année à la grande pauvreté, comme le président, Xi Jinping, s’y était engagé. Alors que des millions de diplômés vont entrer sur le marché du travail au cours des mois à venir, la situation de l’emploi est inquiétante.

Other estimates suggest that it is the first negative quarter China has had since 1976, which marked the end of the decade-long Cultural Revolution that pushed the Chinese economy to the edge of collapse.\nChina also reported a slew of other key economic data, which look equally grim. Retail sales, which declined by 20.5% on-year for January and February, decreased by 15.8% in March from a year ago. Fixed-asset investment outside rural households, which reflects construction activity, as well as industrial output, an important indicator for measuring economic performance, extended their losing streak from the first two months to drop 16.1% and 1.1% in March from the previous year, according to China’s National Bureau of Statistics.\nThe historic slump, mainly caused by China’s lockdowns of cities to contain the epidemic, first spotted in its central city Wuhan, lays bare what to expect even after relatively successful containment of the virus. While China is gradually re-emerging from the crisis, countries like the US and Italy are repeating some of the worst nightmares China had in the early days of the outbreak, news of which was reportedly suppressed by Beijing initially. China now accounts for only 4% of the over 2 million confirmed coronavirus cases worldwide, compared with 32% for the US.\nGlobal economic forecasts have also become increasingly pessimistic in recent weeks. The International Monetary Fund said the virus could cause the worst global recession since the Great Depression in the 1930s, while the unemployment rate in the US could reach 20% as soon as next month, according to a note from JPMorgan.\nAlthough China could provide some indication of what’s in store for other countries as they try to restart commerce, the lessons that can be learned from how the world’s second-biggest economy tries to revive its economy are limited—its political and cultural structures are much different than those in the West, and there have long been doubts about the veracity of its economic data. China’s one-party state also means it can deploy measures on a much larger scale, and much faster than other political systems.\nStill, one takeaway is the rebound could be more gradual and less V-shaped than some economists had hoped, say analysts. “China’s Q2 GDP, while could be better than Q1, should still see a negative growth year-on-year. This is partly because of the sluggish global demand caused by the virus, leading to canceled orders for many Chinese factories,” said Raymond Yeung, chief China economist at Australia & New Zealand Banking Group in Hong Kong. Another factor that complicates the recovery process is the changing dynamic in international relations. “After the outbreak, the trade relations between China and other countries could get worse, posing a bigger challenge for Beijing,” he added.\nFuture challenges\nAmong the obstacles Beijing faces for reviving its economy, the most notable one is probably declining exports, which accounted for around 20% of the country’s GDP in 2018.\nAlthough Chinese exports bounced back quickly in March, falling 6.6% year-on-year in dollar terms compared with a 17.2% fall in the January-February period, this is probably not a long-term trend. The better performance in March is largely because orders halted during the first two months were finally delivered as China resumed work, but as soon as those orders have been delivered, exports could decline further again, according to a note (link in Chinese) this week from analysts at Chinese brokerage Orient Securities. Global demand is expected to “sustain a huge shock” from the virus in the coming months and in turn affect Chinese exports, wrote the analysts.\nMeanwhile, the struggle of China’s small-to-medium (SME) enterprises, which provide around 80% of urban employment, also became apparent. Over 85% of SMEs said they could collapse within three months if they couldn’t get financial help, according to a survey done by China’s Peking and Tsinghua universities in February. A recent survey (link in Chinese) also showed that March revenues of SMEs in China declined by nearly 60% year-on-year even as the situation started getting better.\nChina announced a surprising improvement in unemployment for March today, however, with the number inching up from 6.2% for the January-February period to 5.9%. Whether the data tell the full story is in question as Beijing does not count its 288 million migrant workers when calculating the figure.\nDomestic consumption, while billed as the most important driver for China’s economic growth as it contributed 58% of its GDP last year, also looks sluggish. The expected “revenge shopping” sprees seem unlikely to occur as people are worried about a second wave of outbreak and the economy overall.\nWill more stimulus help?\nFor now, China’s major stimulus measures include a reported $400 billion of infrastructure investment, slashing its bank loan rate by its biggest level since 2015 to make it easier for companies to borrow, more infrastructure bonds sold by local governments, increasing its national fiscal deficit as a share of GDP, and issuance of special sovereign debt. It also plans on giving small lenders a credit line of 1 trillion yuan ($140 billion) from its central bank. Some are expecting the country to roll out more financial relief measures.\nHowever, compared with other countries, which have prepared aid packages worth trillions of dollars to try to buttress workers and businesses from the coronavirus disruption, China’s stimulus—at around 3% of GDP— still looks modest (Germany’s emergency aid is around 20% of GDP).\nThe relatively small package may signal that heavy indebtedness means Beijing has less room to maneuver than it did a decade ago during the 2008 financial crisis, when its relief package equalled to around 16% (paywall) of its then GDP. But analysts say that this could be a good opportunity for Beijing to abandon its obsession with GDP targets, which needs further stimulus to spur, to instead focus on improving individuals’ livelihoods.\n“The government should not pay too much attention to stimulating GDP and its growth rate… Instead, it should focus on how to help industries, firms, and individuals that are suffering most from the coronavirus diseases survive,” said Yu Zhi, an economist at Renmin University in Beijing.", "url": "https://qz.com/1839062/china-gdp-contracts-6-8-percent-in-first-quarter-due-to-coronavirus/", "archive_url": "https://web.archive.org/web/20200417041905/https://qz.com/1839062/china-gdp-contracts-6-8-percent-in-first-quarter-due-to-coronavirus/" } ]

Ce vendredi, les quelque 800 salariés de l'usine Smart d'Hambach, en Moselle, se sont prononcé sur une augmentation du temps de travail. La direction du site souhaitait qu'ils passent de 35 heures à 39 heures travaillées par semaine. Ils ont à 56% répondu favorablement à cette sollicitation.\nLe oui, majoritaire à 74% chez les 385 cadres consultés, n'a rassemblé que 39% des suffrages chez les 367 ouvriers votants, lors de ce référendum à caractère purement consultatif, ont précisé les syndicats. En contrepartie, les salariés bénéficieront d'une augmentation de salaire de 120 euros brut par mois et d'une prime de 1000 euros versée sur deux années. Cela revient à augmenter le temps de travail de 12 % en échange d'une augmentation des salaires de 6 %, selon la direction. Les emplois seront alors préservés jusqu'en 2020.\n«Les salariés n'ont pas le couteau sous la gorge. Il n'y aura pas de plan social en cas de rejet de ce projet»\nOfficiellement, trois des quatre syndicats représentés - CGT, CFDT et CFTC - s'étaient opposés au projet. Seule la CFE-CGC s'y était déclarée favorable. Néanmoins, ils ont tous souhaité organiser un référendum pour connaître l'opinion réelle des salariés sur ce sujet forcément difficile. «Les salariés n'ont pas le couteau sous la gorge, avait précisé avec humour Philippe Steyer, directeur des ressources humaines de Smart France. Il n'y aura pas de plan social en cas de rejet de ce projet.» Tant du côté des syndicats que de la direction, personne n'osait un pronostic sur les résultats de ce référendum. Cette adhésion franche incitera sans doute les syndicats à poursuivre les discussions.\nLe site d'Hambach fabrique des Smart depuis 1997. Toutes les Smart deux places en circulation dans le monde sont sorties du site mosellan. Et Daimler a dépensé 200 millions d'euros pour que la dernière génération de Smart continue d'être fabriquée en Lorraine. C'est chose faite depuis l'an dernier. Il semble clair que rien ne changera à court terme.\nEn revanche, à moyen terme, la situation peut devenir plus difficile. Daimler est en effet engagé dans un vaste plan d'amélioration de la compétitivité de toutes ses usines dans le monde à l'horizon 2020. Dont Hambach. «L'objectif est d'assurer la pérennité du site à un horizon plus lointain que 2020», détaille Philippe Steyer.\nConvaincre les dirigeants de Daimler\nChez tous les constructeurs automobiles, aujourd'hui, les sites sont en concurrence les uns avec les autres. C'est également vrai chez Daimler. La nouvelle génération de Smart est issue d'une collaboration avec Renault. La plupart des éléments qui ne sont pas visibles par le client sont identiques à ceux de la nouvelle Twingo de la marque au losange.\nMieux: si la Smart deux places est construite en Moselle, la version quatre places est assemblée dans l'usine Renault de Novo Mesto, en Slovénie, d'où sortent les Twingo. Les dirigeants de Daimler connaissent les coûts de production de l'usine slovène.\nLe défi des salariés et des responsables d'Hambach est aujourd'hui de convaincre les dirigeants de Daimler d'attribuer la future génération de Smart à la Lorraine. Le véhicule actuel ne sera pas remplacé avant six ou sept ans. En revanche, les décisions concernant son successeur seront prises avant 2020. C'est l'avenir de l'usine lorraine qui est en jeu. L'objectif est donc bien là, même si la décision portera d'abord sur la poursuite, ou pas, de la Smart elle-même. Pour ça, il faut que la génération actuelle connaisse le succès. Et ce ne sont pas les salariés de Daimler qui peuvent faire peser sur cette décision.", "url": "http://www.lefigaro.fr/societes/2015/09/10/20005-20150910ARTFIG00318-smart-prepare-son-retour-aux-39heures.php", "archive_url": "https://web.archive.org/web/20150913013518/http://www.lefigaro.fr/societes/2015/09/10/20005-20150910ARTFIG00318-smart-prepare-son-retour-aux-39heures.php" }, { "language": "fr", "title": "Toute l'actualité du pourtour de l'étang de berre", "text": "Quelque 2.200 demandes d'indemnisations de victimes des attentats de novembre ont été déposées auprès du Fond de garantie des victimes des actes de terrorisme \"et ça pourrait aller jusqu'à 4.000\", a déclaré vendredi à l'AFP, Juliette Méadel, la secrétaire d’État chargée de l'aide aux victimes.\nSans donner davantage de précision sur le budget qui y sera alloué, la secrétaire d’État, dont les attributions ont été publiées vendredi au Journal officiel, a simplement déclaré travailler \"à la pérennité du financement du Fonds de garantie des victimes des actes de terrorisme et d'autres infractions (FGTI) sur le long terme\" avec le ministre de l’Économie et des Finances Michel Sapin.\n\"Tous ces dossiers ne posent pas problème mais certains ont besoin d'être aidés\" a ajouté Juliette Méadel, qui siègera désormais au conseil d'administration du FGTI.\nSelon le décret d'attribution publié vendredi, la secrétaire d'État auprès du Premier ministre est chargée \"d'assurer le respect des droits\" des victimes en cas \"d'infractions pénales, de faits de terrorisme, d'accidents collectifs, de sinistres sanitaires, industriels, alimentaires ou de santé publiques, d'accidents écologiques, industriels, de catastrophes naturelles ou encore de discriminations et d'atteintes aux droits fondamentaux\".\nElle travaillera en concertation avec les ministères de la Justice, des affaires sociales et de la Santé, des Finances, ainsi que le ministère des Affaires étrangères et de l'environnement.\nLe texte lui a également attribué le rôle d'interlocuteur unique pour les victimes, une mesure qui était réclamée par les associations pour faciliter leurs démarches administratives, certaines victimes ou proches vivant un \"éprouvant parcours du combattant administratif\" pour faire valoir leurs droits, a constaté Mme Méadel.\nReconnaissant sur iTÉLÉ un \"loupé administratif pendant douze heures\" le soir des attentats du 13 novembre, notamment auprès des proches de personnes présentes sur les lieux des attentats qui ont attendu pendant plusieurs heures avant d'avoir des informations, la secrétaire d'Etat a dit \"réfléchir à la mise en place d'un dispositif de référent unique sur tout le territoire\".\nPour ses missions \"de suivi et d’accompagnement des victimes et de leurs proches\" et \"de prise en charge des victimes en cas de survenance de crises majeures\", Juliette Méadel disposera de la cellule interministérielle d'aide aux victimes et elle présidera le comité de suivi des victimes des attentats du 13 novembre.", "url": "http://www.maritima.info/afp/5/56-des-salaries-de-smart-france-favorables-a-un-retour-aux-39-heures.html", "archive_url": "https://web.archive.org/web/20160304140647/http://www.maritima.info/afp/5/56-des-salaries-de-smart-france-favorables-a-un-retour-aux-39-heures.html" }, { "language": "fr", "title": "Smart : une majorité de salariés en faveur du retour aux 39 heures", "text": "Le Monde | 11.09.2015 à 18h37 • Mis à jour le 11.09.2015 à 20h42\nLes salariés de l’usine Smart à Hambach (Moselle), filiale du groupe Daimler, ont voté à 56 % pour un retour aux 39 heures, vendredi 11 septembre.

La direction, elle, s'est félicitée «de ce résultat qui confirme l'engagement de ses coéquipiers en faveur de l'usine de Hambach.»Smart France, qui produit chaque année quelque 100000 véhicules biplaces dans cette usine située aux confins de la Lorraine, de l'Alsace et de l'Allemagne, doit participer à l'automne au lancement d'un nouveau modèle.La direction veut profiter de cette période d'activité soutenue pour améliorer la compétitivité du site. A l'occasion des négociations annuelles obligatoires sur les salaires, elle a proposé aux salariés de passer aux 39 heures de travail hebdomadaire par étapes: de 35 à 37 heures à compter du 1er octobre prochain, puis de 37 à 39 heures en 2016, 2017 et 2018, avant de revenir à 37 heures en 2019, et 35 en 2020.En contrepartie de l'effort consenti par les salariés (39 heures payées 37 heures et réduction des RTT pour les cadres), ceux-ci se verraient garantir le maintien des emplois jusqu'en 2020. Concrètement, la direction prévoit une augmentation mensuelle de 120 euros brut, ainsi qu'une prime exceptionnelle de 1000 euros versée en deux fois sur deux ans.

Celle-ci prévoit qu’au premier octobre 2015, le temps de travail passerait transitoirement à 37 heures hebdomadaire, du premier octobre 2016 à fin septembre 2018, les salariés travailleraient 39 heures, avant de redescendre sur deux ans aux actuels 35 heures. « Pour l’instant, la loi ne nous autorise pas à déroger de manière permanente aux 35 heuros », regrette Philippe Steyer, le directeur des ressources humaines du site. Pour les cadres et techniciens, le nombre de RTT passeront de 20 à 10 jours sur l’année.\nFinancièrement, chaque salarié obtiendrait 120 euros brut supplémentaire par mois, soit 80 euros net ou 6% du salaire de base au sein de l’usine, ainsi qu’une prime de mille euros, versée en deux fois. « Le compte n’y est pas, assure Didier Getrey, de la CFDT métallurgie. Si l’on augmente le temps de travail de quelques 18 heures par mois, les salariés devraient être payés bien plus.

Et que la charge du site devrait augmenter progressivement jusqu’en 2017. En augmentant le temps de travail, le site va supprimer de nombreux postes d’intérimaires... »\nDans son pacte « 2020 », la direction de l’usine propose en fait l’embauche définitive d’ici 2017 d’un tiers des 160 intérimaires travaillant actuellement dans l’usine pour accompagner la production de la troisième génération de Smart Fortwo. « Chez Smart, tous les voyants sont au vert, reconnaît Philippe Steyer, le directeur des ressources humaines. C’est donc le bon moment pour améliorer notre compétitivité afin d’assurer d’obtenir la génération suivante de la Smart. »\nLes syndicats auront le dernier mot\nLa contrainte vient en fait de Daimler qui souhaite améliorer la compétitivité de l’ensemble de ses sites. « A Hambach, la baisse de la masse salariale n’est pas le seul levier d’amélioration de la compétitivité du site, ajoute Philippe Steyer. Nous développons en parallèle des plans pour augmenter à la fois la qualité et la productivité, hors coûts salariaux. Dans ces conditions, nous serons bien placés pour accueillir la quatrième génération de la Smart, dont l’attribution sera décidée d’ici la fin de la décennie. »\nA cet horizon, le site d’Hambach pourrait devoir batailler avec des sites de... Renault. Pour le lancement de la dernière génération de sa Smart, Daimler s’est en effet associé à Renault. La Twingo et les Fortwo et Forfour (une Smart à quatre places) partagent le même soubassement technique. Et la Forfour est produite sur la même ligne de production que sa cousine au losange dans l’usine slovène de Renault de Novo Mesto, aux coûts salariaux plus serrés.\nLe vote de vendredi reste cependant consultatif. Ce sont les syndicats qui auront le dernier mot.

[ { "language": "en", "title": "AIDS' Site of Vulnerability Found", "text": "AIDS' Site of Vulnerability Found AIDS virus handshakes with the cells it attacks - this was revealed by scientists who managed to capture the image of such biological handshaking. The scientists say this discovery gives them a hope to find a vaccine against the deadly disease which very easily transmits through sexual intercourse. They revealed that there is a place on the outside of the HIV which might be vulnerable to antibodies that can prevent it from infecting human cells. The study on this matter published in the journal Nature is said to be likely to reveal the long-sought „site of vulnerability“ of the human immunodificiency virus. This vulnerable site can be targeted with a special vaccine which prevents infection. According to U. S National Institutes of Health researcher Peter Kwong, the discovery definitely means that a vaccine against AIDS is no more only a dream. It is really possible, though it is not found yet. Scientists agree that nothing but a vaccine can stop the spread of AIDS which is to blame of death of more than 25 million people throughout the world since it was for the first time in 1981. Today there are about 40 million people living with HIV, the majority being concentrated in sub-Saharan Africa. Thought today dozens of possible vaccines are in development, there are only two AIDS vaccine candidates today. These are vaccines made by Merck and Co. and by Sanofi-Aventis SA. The main difficulty in finding a vaccine against HIV is that the virus attacks immune systém cells. Researchers at the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases managed to make images of the virus and to reveal the structure of protein on the virus' s surface.This protein called gp120 is bound to an infection-fighting antibody and seems to be susceptible to this antibody's attacks. This antibody is called b12 and it can neutralize the virus. Scientists revealed a definite interaction. The virus tries to grab the cells sent by the body to protect it and to infect them. The first contact between the cells and the virus is like cautions handshake which than becomes like bear hug. HIV uses gp120 to get entry into the cells it infects. The scientists found that antibody gp120 is capable to block this process. The worst thing is that HIV mutates very quickly and neutralizes the immune systém's efforts to target it. As well it prevents antibodies from blocking the proteins which the virus uses to infect a cell. This makes it clear that though the findings are of very great importance, much work in human studies is needed. Any vaccine against AIDS is years away, so all measures to prevent it, like use of condoms, must be taken.", "url": "http://www.love-shop.biz/aids-found-p.html", "archive_url": "https://web.archive.org/web/20090304165638/http://www.love-shop.biz/aids-found-p.html" }, { "language": "en", "title": "AIDS virus weakness detected", "text": "By Will Dunham\nWASHINGTON (Reuters) - Scientists have captured an image of the AIDS virus in a biological handshake with the immune cells it attacks, and said on Wednesday they hope this can help lead to a better vaccine against the incurable disease.\nThey pinpointed a place on the outside of the human immunodeficiency virus that could be vulnerable to antibodies that could block it from infecting human cells.\nU.S. National Institutes of Health researcher Peter Kwong said the study, published in the journal Nature, may reveal HIV's long-sought \"site of vulnerability\" that can be targeted with a vaccine aimed at preventing initial infection.\n\"Having that site and knowing that you can make antibodies against it means that a vaccine is possible,\" Kwong said in a telephone interview.\n\"It doesn't say we've gotten there.

Despite this complexity, the HIV-1 Env must retain conserved determinants that mediate CD4 binding. To evaluate how these determinants might provide opportunities for antibody recognition, we created variants of gp120 stabilized in the CD4-bound state, assessed binding of CD4 and of receptor-binding-site antibodies, and determined the structure at 2.3 Å resolution of the broadly neutralizing antibody b12 in complex with gp120. b12 binds to a conformationally invariant surface that overlaps a distinct subset of the CD4-binding site. This surface is involved in the metastable attachment of CD4, before the gp120 rearrangement required for stable engagement. A site of vulnerability, related to a functional requirement for efficient association with CD4, can therefore be targeted by antibody to neutralize HIV-1.", "url": "http://www.nature.com/nature/journal/v445/n7129/abs/nature05580.html", "archive_url": "https://web.archive.org/web/20070220205137/http://www.nature.com/nature/journal/v445/n7129/abs/nature05580.html" } ]

Renowned US novelist John Updike has died at the age of 76, his publisher has announced. He had been suffering from lung cancer. Updike won many top literary prizes, including Pulitzers for two volumes of his famous Rabbit series. In about 50 books over half a century, he chronicled sex, divorce and other aspects of life in post-war America. He once told an interviewer that his subject was \"the American small town, Protestant middle class\". He died in a hospice near his home in Beverly Farms, Massachussetts, his publisher said. The son of a schoolmaster, Updike was born in Pennsylvania in 1932 and, after attending Harvard, spent a year as an art student in Oxford in the UK. Later he joined the staff of the New Yorker magazine, to which he contributed numerous poems, essays and short stories. Updike's first novel, The Poorhouse Fair, was published in 1959. The following year, though, saw the publication of the book which established him as one of the greatest novelists of his age, Rabbit, Run. PROMINENT UPDIKE NOVELS Rabbit, Run, 1960 Couples, 1968 Rabbit Redux, 1971 The Witches of Eastwick, 1984 Memories of the Ford Administration, 1992\nObituary: John Updike Updike in his own words Life in pictures John Updike: Your views It marked the debut of his most enduring character, Harold \"Rabbit\" Angstrom. In the following decades he would write sequels, including Rabbit Redux, Rabbit is Rich and Rabbit at Rest, charting the course of a man's life - his job, marriage, affairs, minor triumphs and death. The death was announced by publisher Alfred A Knopf. \"He was one of our greatest writers and he will be sorely missed,\" Knopf publicity director Nicholas Latimer said. In an interview, Updike explained why most of his novels were about the lives of ordinary Americans. \"The writer must face the fact that ordinary lives are what most people live most of the time, and that the novel as a narration of the fantastic and the adventurous is really an escapist plot; that aesthetically the ordinary, the banal, is what you must deal with.\" Please turn on JavaScript. Media requires JavaScript to play. In September 2001, Updike was visiting relatives in New York when he found himself witnessing the attack on the World Trade Centre. The experience led to one of his last novels, Terrorist, in which he imagined the life of a radicalised American Muslim. \"To actually be seeing it not a mile away was very moving, very disturbing, very unsettling. It's like the bottom fell out of your own existence, somehow.\" Updike also wrote The Witches of Eastwick in 1984, which was made into a film starring Jack Nicholson, Cher, Michelle Pfeiffer and Susan Sarandon.

Knopf.\nA literary writer who frequently appeared on best-seller lists, the tall, hawk-nosed Updike wrote novels, short stories, poems, criticism, the memoir \"Self-Consciousness\" and even a famous essay about baseball great Ted Williams. He was prolific, even compulsive, releasing more than 50 books in a career that started in the 1950s. Updike won virtually every literary prize, including two Pulitzers, for \"Rabbit Is Rich\" and \"Rabbit at Rest,\" and two National Book Awards.\nAlthough himself deprived of a Nobel, he did bestow it upon one of his fictional characters, Henry Bech, the womanizing, egotistical Jewish novelist who collected the literature prize in 1999.\nHis settings ranged from the court of \"Hamlet\" to postcolonial Africa, but his literary home was the American suburb. Born in 1932, Updike spoke for millions of Depression-era readers raised by \"penny-pinching parents,\" united by \"the patriotic cohesion of World War II\" and blessed by a \"disproportionate share of the world's resources,\" the postwar, suburban boom of \"idealistic careers and early marriages.\"\nHe captured, and sometimes embodied, a generation's confusion over the civil rights and women's movements, and opposition to the Vietnam War. Updike was called a misogynist, a racist and an apologist for the establishment. On purely literary grounds, he was attacked by Norman Mailer as the kind of author appreciated by readers who knew nothing about writing.\nBut more often he was praised for his flowing, poetic writing style. Describing a man's interrupted quest to make love, Updike likened it \"to a small angel to which all afternoon tiny lead weights are attached.\" Nothing was too great or too small for Updike to poeticize. He might rhapsodize over the film projector's \"chuckling whir\" or look to the stars and observe that \"the universe is perfectly transparent: we exist as flaws in ancient glass.\"\nIn the richest detail, his books recorded the extremes of earthly desire and spiritual zealotry, whether the comic philandering of the preacher in \"A Month of Sundays\" or the steady rage of the young Muslim in \"Terrorist.\" Raised in the Protestant community of Shillington, Pa., where the Lord's Prayer was recited daily at school, Updike was a lifelong churchgoer influenced by his faith, but not immune to doubts.\n\"I remember the times when I was wrestling with these issues that I would feel crushed. I was crushed by the purely materialistic, atheistic account of the universe,\" Updike told The Associated Press during a 2006 interview.\n\"I am very prone to accept all that the scientists tell us, the truth of it, the authority of the efforts of all the men and woman spent trying to understand more about atoms and molecules. But I can't quite make the leap of unfaith, as it were, and say, `This is it. Carpe diem (seize the day), and tough luck.'\"\nHe received his greatest acclaim for the \"Rabbit\" series, a quartet of novels published over a 30-year span that featured ex-high school basketball star Harry \"Rabbit\" Angstrom and his restless adjustment to adulthood and the constraints of work and family. To the very end, Harry was in motion, an innocent in his belief that any door could be opened, a believer in God even as he bedded women other than his wife.\n\"The tetralogy to me is the tale of a life, a life led an American citizen who shares the national passion for youth, freedom, and sex, the national openness and willingness to learn, the national habit of improvisation,\" Updike would later write. \"He is furthermore a Protestant, haunted by a God whose manifestations are elusive, yet all-important.\"\nOther notable books included \"Couples,\" a sexually explicit tale of suburban mating that sold millions of copies; \"In the Beauty of the Lilies,\" an epic of American faith and fantasy; and \"Too Far to Go, which followed the courtship, marriage and divorce of the Maples, a suburban couple with parallels to Updike's own first marriage.\nPlagued from an early age by asthma, psoriasis and a stammer, he found creative outlets in drawing and writing. Updike was born in Reading, Pa., his mother a department store worker who longed to write, his father a high school teacher remembered with sadness and affection in \"The Centaur,\" a novel published in 1964. The author brooded over his father's low pay and mocking students, but also wrote of a childhood of \"warm and action-packed houses that accommodated the presence of a stranger, my strange ambition to be glamorous.\"\nFor Updike, the high life meant books, such as the volumes of P.G. Wodehouse and Robert Benchley he borrowed from the library as a child, or, as he later recalled, the \"chastely severe, time-honored classics\" he read in his dorm room at Harvard University, leaning back in his \"wooden Harvard chair,\" cigarette in hand.\nWhile studying on full scholarship at Harvard, he headed the staff of the Harvard Lampoon and met the woman who became his first wife, Mary Entwistle Pennington, whom he married in June 1953, a year before he earned his A.B. degree summa cum laude. (Updike divorced Pennington in 1975 and was remarried two years later, to Martha Bernhard).\nAfter graduating, he accepted a one-year fellowship to study painting at the Ruskin School of Drawing and Fine Arts at Oxford University. During his stay in England, a literary idol, E.B. White, offered him a position at The New Yorker, where he served briefly as foreign books reviewer. Many of Updike's reviews and short stories were published in The New Yorker, often edited by White's stepson, Roger Angell.\nBy the end of the 1950s, Updike had published a story collection, a book of poetry and his first novel, \"The Poorhouse Fair,\" soon followed by the first of the Rabbit books, \"Rabbit, Run.\" Praise came so early and so often that New York Times critic Arthur Mizener worried that Updike's \"natural talent\" was exposing him \"from an early age to a great deal of head-turning praise.\"\nUpdike learned to write about everyday life by, in part, living it. In 1957, he left New York, with its \"cultural hassle\" and melting pot of \"agents and wisenheimers,\" and settled with his first wife and four kids in Ipswich, Mass, a \"rather out-of-the-way town\" about 30 miles north of Boston.\n\"The real America seemed to me 'out there,' too heterogeneous and electrified by now to pose much threat of the provinciality that people used to come to New York to escape,\" Updike later wrote.\n\"There were also practical attractions: free parking for my car, public education for my children, a beach to tan my skin on, a church to attend without seeming too strange.\"", "url": "http://www.google.com/hostednews/ap/article/ALeqM5jSy7IaB3AtpUUQ89OcmhP0ARmzIwD95VLBRO0", "archive_url": "https://web.archive.org/web/20090130095913/http://www.google.com/hostednews/ap/article/ALeqM5jSy7IaB3AtpUUQ89OcmhP0ARmzIwD95VLBRO0" }, { "language": "en", "title": "Rabbit is gone: writer John Updike dies", "text": "BOSTON (Reuters) - John Updike, a leading writer of his generation who chronicled the drama of small-town American life with flowing and vivid prose, wit and a frank eye for sex, died on Tuesday of lung cancer. He was 76.\n\"It is with great sadness that I report that John Updike died this morning,\" said Nicholas Latimer of Alfred A. Knopf, a unit of Random House. \"He was one of our greatest writers, and he will be sorely missed.\"\nThe Pulitzer Prize-winning author died in a hospice in Massachusetts, the state where he lived for more than half a century, prolific in his writing of novels, short stories, essays and criticism.\nUpdike's stories often focused on undercurrents of tension masked by the mundane surface of suburban America, which boomed in 1960s and 1970s as his career was taking off. Ripples of sexual tension were frequent.\nAn early short story, \"A&P,\" chronicled an adolescent boy's inner turmoil when three bikini-clad teenage girls appeared in the supermarket where he worked.\n\"It's one thing to have a girl in a bathing suit down on the beach,\" Updike wrote, \"and another thing in the cool of the A&P, under the fluorescent lights, against all those stacked packages, with her feet paddling along naked over our checkerboard green-and-cream rubber-tile floor.\"\nUpdike's frank focus on sex came before the profound changes in U.S. culture of the late 1960s lifted some of the taboo from the topic. His publisher rewrote portions of his second novel, \"Rabbit, Run,\" before its first printing out of fear of being charged with obscenity.\nThat novel introduced the fictional hero Harry \"Rabbit\" Angstrom, the subject of four Updike novels and a novella over four decades, which won him two Pulitzer Prizes for fiction.\n'AMONG THE VERY BEST'\nUpdike was acclaimed nearly as much for his short stories, poetry and critical essays as for his 28 novels.\nMore than 800 Updike stories, reviews, poems and articles were published in The New Yorker magazine from 1954 through 2008. Many American readers strongly associated Updike with that publication.\n\"Even though his literary career transcended any magazine -- he was obviously among the very best writers in the world -- he still loved writing for this weekly magazine, loved being part of an enterprise that he joined when he was so young,\" said David Remnick, editor of The New Yorker.\n\"He was, for so long, the spirit of The New Yorker and it is very hard to imagine things without him.\"\nWilliam Pritchard, a professor of English at Amherst College who studied and knew Updike, said Updike stood out for his versatility -- writing fiction, nonfiction and verse.\n\"He stands, for me, at the very top of the practice of being a man of letters,\" Pritchard said. \"Each activity was carried on with great intelligence and wit and love.\"\n'MAKE EVERYTHING COUNT'\nBorn in Reading, Pennsylvania, Updike studied English at Harvard University, where he contributed to, and later edited, the satirical Harvard Lampoon magazine. After a year studying at Oxford, Updike moved to New York where he worked for two years on the New Yorker's staff.\nIn 1957 he moved his family to Ipswich, Massachusetts, a coastal town north of Boston, and later moved to nearby Beverly Farms.\nA New England flavor features in Updike's 1984 novel \"The Witches of Eastwick,\" set in a fictional Rhode Island town, which was made into a commercially successful 1987 film starring Jack Nicholson and Cher.\nIn a Reuters interview in 2005, he said his view of himself as a writer had changed in recent years as he produced an increasing volume of art and literary criticism and struggled with the short-story medium. When asked which genre he preferred, he paused.\n\"If I had been asked that 10 years ago I would have said short stories is where I feel most at home. I'm not sure I do feel totally at home any more, whether I have maybe written all my short stories,\" he said.\nHe was candid about the need to get writing published:\n\"I've become much more of a book reviewer and an art reviewer for that matter than I ever planned to. At least there is a comfort when you sit down to write one of these that you'll be sure that it will get printed and you'll get paid for it. It's not the case with a short story.\"\n(Additional reporting by Michelle Nichols in New York, Editing by Jason Szep and Frances Kerry)", "url": "http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2009/01/27/AR2009012701672.html", "archive_url": "https://web.archive.org/web/20090204081312/http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2009/01/27/AR2009012701672.html" }, { "language": "en", "title": "Obituary: John Updike", "text": "John Updike: Magisterial chronicler of The American Century John Updike's novels, magisterial dissections of the soul of post-World War II middle America, placed him at the very pinnacle of his profession. Works such as Couples and the Rabbit series chronicled the obsessions, passions and anxieties of three generations. Whether writing novels, short stories, essays or poems, John Updike's work always seemed to find the pulse of modern America. Often controversial, he remained at the cutting edge of literature into his 70s and, with his most celebrated character, Harold \"Rabbit\" Angstrom, he found an authentic 20th-Century everyman. The son of a schoolmaster, John Updike was born in Pennsylvania in March 1932 and, after attending Harvard, spent a year in the UK, as a student at the Ruskin School of Drawing and Fine Art at Oxford. Later he joined the staff of the New Yorker magazine, to which he contributed numerous poems, essays and short stories. Updike's first novel, The Poorhouse Fair, was published in 1959, to mixed, but generally favourable, reviews. The following year, though, saw the publication of the book which established him as one of the greatest novelists of his age. Rabbit, Run marked the debut of his most enduring, if not endearing, character, Harold \"Rabbit\" Angstrom. Updike's Rabbit novels spanned a generation In this and its sequels, Rabbit Redux, Rabbit is Rich and Rabbit at Rest - published at ten-yearly intervals - Updike charts the course of one man's life: his job, marriage, affairs, minor triumphs and death. The Rabbit novels, though, are as much about the changing soul of the United States as about any individual character. Even so, with all his petty failings and unrequited hopes, their main character presents not a mere cipher but a rounded, fully realised, portrait of a human being. Updike was clear about the focus of his work: \"My subject is the American Protestant small town middle class.\" \"I like middles. It is in middles that extremes clash, where ambiguity restlessly rules.\" During the mid-60s, works such as The Centaur and Of the Farm brought Updike critical acclaim but Couples, published in 1968, gave him his first popular success. Couples, has been called \"the best-written dirty book since the Decameron\" - but this does less than justice to either Updike or Boccaccio. Updike's themes, though American, were universal The theme of the book is indeed adultery, as practised by ten middle-class couples in a small New England town Though the author does not hesitate to give detailed descriptions of sexual intercourse, he does so with a lucidity and reverence that is completely removed from pornography. Altogether, John Updike published more than 50 novels: one of his novels about Harold Angstrom, Rabbit is Rich, won the 1982 Pulitzer Prize for fiction, while Rabbit at Rest won in 1993. Though often berated by critics for his seeming obsession with golf and sex, it is his mastery of the English language, its nuances, vagueries and sheer beauty, which brought John Updike millions of admirers.\nBookmark with: Delicious\nDigg\nreddit\nFacebook\nStumbleUpon What are these?

Por Fabricio Soza, desde la Plaza de Mayo.\nIncesante y plena de gestos de emoción, una multitud recorrió el Salón de los Patriotas Latinoamericanos para despedir al ex presidente Néstor Kirchner. Su esposa, la presidenta Cristina Kirchner, se mantuvo todo el día junto al féretro en compañía de sus hijos. Se retiró a descansar a Olivos recién poco antes de la medianoche.\nEl desfile del público continuó, incesante y sentido. La capilla ardiente permaneció abierta hasta pasadas las 12 horas, cuando se inició el cortejo fúnebre dominado por la presencia de más gente y por la lluvia. Los restos de Kirchner serán trasladados hacia Aeroparque, desde donde partirá rumbo a Río Gallegos para el último adiós.\nLa presencia de la gente se mantuvo constante durante todo el velatorio. Hubo momentos en que la cola para ingresar llegó hasta la 9 de Julio. Algunos gritaron consignas de apoyo a la mandataria, que muchas veces se acercó y los saludó afectivamente. La noche llegó junto con el cansancio y la distensión: militantes compartieron gritos y abrazos junto a Máximo Kirchner. Un barítono, además, sorprendió al entonar el Ave María.\nSi bien las puertas se abrieron a las 10, Cristina llegó después de las 11 a Casa de gobierno. Junto a la Presidenta, quien sólo se retiró algunos minutos a descansar, estuvieron a lo largo del día Florencia y Maximiliano Kirchner. Alrededor de ellos, los ministros del Gabinete y gobernadores. También estuvieron en el lugar, en forma alternada, varios presidentes sudamericanos.\nLa titular de Desarrollo Social, Alicia Kirchner, también estuvo a la cabeza de la ceremonia. Se vieron gestos muy conmovidos y llanto, tanto de los cientos de personas que empezaron a pasar por el lugar como de algunas de las figuras políticas del oficialismo que estaban formadas junto al féretro con los restos del ex mandatario, que es velado a cajón cerrado.\nLa hermana del ex presidente se llevó varias veces las manos al rostro en un gesto de incredulidad y dolor. A su lado, el gobernador mendocino Celso Jaque se enjugaba unas lágrimas. El ministro del Interior, Florencio Randazzo, fue otro de los que no ocultó expresiones de pena. Y uno de los pocos que habló fue Daniel Scioli: \"Venimos a darle el último adiós a un gran argentino, un gran presidente, un gran peronista\", dijo al ingresar a la Casa Rosada.\nLa Presidenta fue conducida en helicóptero desde la Residencia de Olivos. Bajó a metros de la Casa de Gobierno en un movimiento rápido de su custodia.\nAlgunos de los primeros en saludarla fueron el secretario general de la CGT, Hugo Moyano, y las titulares de Abuelas y Madres de Plaza de Mayo, Estela de Carlotto y Hebe de Bonafini.\nCon el correr de las horas se acercaron los primeros dirigentes de la oposición, Francisco de Narváez y Ricardo Alfonsín.

[ { "language": "en", "title": "Israel Detonated a Radioactive Bunker Buster Bomb in Lebanon", "text": "KHIAM SOUTHERN LEBANON\nA BOMB’S ANATOMY\nBy Flaviano Masella, Angelo Saso, Maurizio Torrealta\nThe special report was triggered by the radioactivity measurements reported on a crater probably created by an Israeli Bunker Buster bomb in the village of Khiam, in southern Lebanon. The measurements were carried out by two Lebanese professors of physics - Mohammad Ali Kubaissi and Ibrahim Rachidi. The data - 700 nanosieverts per hour – showed remarkably higher radiocativity then the average in the area (Beirut = 35 nSv/hr ). Successivamente, on September 17th, Ali Kubaissi took British researcher Dai Williams, from the environmentalist organization Green Audit, to the same site, to take samples that were then submitted to Chris Busby, technical adisor of the Supervisory Committee on Depleted Uranium, which reports to the British Ministry of Defense. The samples were tested by Harwell’s nuclear laboratory, one of the most authoritative research centers in the world. On October 17th, Harwell disclosed the testing results - two samples in 10 did contain radioactivity.\nOn November 2nd, another British lab, The School of Oceanographic Sciences, confirmed Harwell’s results – the Khiam crater contains slightly enriched uranium. Rainews24 also took a sample taken by Dai Williams for testing by the Department of Earth Sciences of the University of Ferrara. The testing - which is still ongoing - found an anomalous structure: the sample’s surface includes alluminium and iron silicates, normal elements in a soil fragment. Yet, looking inside, estremely small bubbles can be found with high concentration of iron. Further testing will clarify the origin of these structures: what seems to be certain at the moment is that they are not caused by a natural process.\nWhat kind of weapon is this? What weapon leaves traces of radiation and produces such lethal and circumscribed consequences?\nResearcher Dai Williams believes this is a new class of weapons using enriched uranium, not through fission processes but through new physical processes kept secret for at least 20 years.\nPhysicist Emilio del Giudice form the National Institute of Nuclear Phisics came to the same conlcusion: “There are two ways to explain the origin of the enriched uranium found in Khiam:\nAbout the origin of enriched Uranium there are two possibilities:\n1) this material was present already in the structure of the bombs, but I am puzzled since one should explain the rationale of the use of a material which is both expensive and dangerous , because of its enhanced radioactivity, to people handling it , including military personnel of Israeli Army. 2) the enrichment has been the consequence of the use of the bomb; this possibility is hardly compatible with the known effects of conventional nuclear weapons and should imply that some newly discovered nuclear phenomenon could be at work.\nThe Israeli army denied the use of uranium-based weapons in Lebanon. So, how can people defend themselves from potential uranium-related harm? What precautions will the Unifil troops in the area take, and what kind of testing has been carried out to prevent the risks? The documentary directly covers those qestions.\nTranslation by Desiree Berlangieri and Maria Letizia Tesorini\nhttp://www.rainews24.rai.it/ran24/inchieste/09112006_bomba_ing.asp", "url": "http://www.globalresearch.ca/index.php?context=viewArticle&code=20061111&articleId=3813", "archive_url": "https://web.archive.org/web/20070310212207/http://globalresearch.ca/index.php?context=viewArticle&code=20061111&articleId=3813" }, { "language": "en", "title": "Independent Online Edition > Robert Fisk", "text": "Did Israel use a secret new uranium-based weapon in southern Lebanon this summer in the 34-day assault that cost more than 1,300 Lebanese lives, most of them civilians?\nWe know that the Israelis used American \"bunker-buster\" bombs on Hizbollah's Beirut headquarters. We know that they drenched southern Lebanon with cluster bombs in the last 72 hours of the war, leaving tens of thousands of bomblets which are still killing Lebanese civilians every week. And we now know - after it first categorically denied using such munitions - that the Israeli army also used phosphorous bombs, weapons which are supposed to be restricted under the third protocol of the Geneva Conventions, which neither Israel nor the United States have signed.\nBut scientific evidence gathered from at least two bomb craters in Khiam and At-Tiri, the scene of fierce fighting between Hizbollah guerrillas and Israeli troops last July and August, suggests that uranium-based munitions may now also be included in Israel's weapons inventory - and were used against targets in Lebanon. According to Dr Chris Busby, the British Scientific Secretary of the European Committee on Radiation Risk, two soil samples thrown up by Israeli heavy or guided bombs showed \"elevated radiation signatures\". Both have been forwarded for further examination to the Harwell laboratory in Oxfordshire for mass spectrometry - used by the Ministry of Defence - which has confirmed the concentration of uranium isotopes in the samples.\nDr Busby's initial report states that there are two possible reasons for the contamination. \"The first is that the weapon was some novel small experimental nuclear fission device or other experimental weapon (eg, a thermobaric weapon) based on the high temperature of a uranium oxidation flash ... The second is that the weapon was a bunker-busting conventional uranium penetrator weapon employing enriched uranium rather than depleted uranium.\" A photograph of the explosion of the first bomb shows large clouds of black smoke that might result from burning uranium.\nEnriched uranium is produced from natural uranium ore and is used as fuel for nuclear reactors. A waste productof the enrichment process is depleted uranium, it is an extremely hard metal used in anti-tank missiles for penetrating armour. Depleted uranium is less radioactive than natural uranium, which is less radioactive than enriched uranium.\nIsrael has a poor reputation for telling the truth about its use of weapons in Lebanon. In 1982, it denied using phosphorous munitions on civilian areas - until journalists discovered dying and dead civilians whose wounds caught fire when exposed to air.\nI saw two dead babies who, when taken from a mortuary drawer in West Beirut during the Israeli siege of the city, suddenly burst back into flames. Israel officially denied using phosphorous again in Lebanon during the summer - except for \"marking\" targets - even after civilians were photographed in Lebanese hospitals with burn wounds consistent with phosphorous munitions.\nThen on Sunday, Israel suddenly admitted that it had not been telling the truth. Jacob Edery, the Israeli minister in charge of government-parliament relations, confirmed that phosphorous shells were used in direct attacks against Hizbollah, adding that \"according to international law, the use of phosphorous munitions is authorised and the (Israeli) army keeps to the rules of international norms\".\nAsked by The Independent if the Israeli army had been using uranium-based munitions in Lebanon this summer, Mark Regev, the Israeli Foreign Ministry spokesman, said: \"Israel does not use any weaponry which is not authorised by international law or international conventions.\" This, however, begs more questions than it answers. Much international law does not cover modern uranium weapons because they were not invented when humanitarian rules such as the Geneva Conventions were drawn up and because Western governments still refuse to believe that their use can cause long-term damage to the health of thousands of civilians living in the area of the explosions.\nAmerican and British forces used hundreds of tons of depleted uranium (DU) shells in Iraq in 1991 - their hardened penetrator warheads manufactured from the waste products of the nuclear industry - and five years later, a plague of cancers emerged across the south of Iraq.\nInitial US military assessments warned of grave consequences for public health if such weapons were used against armoured vehicles. But the US administration and the British government later went out of their way to belittle these claims. Yet the cancers continued to spread amid reports that civilians in Bosnia - where DU was also used by Nato aircraft - were suffering new forms of cancer. DU shells were again used in the 2003 Anglo-American invasion of Iraq but it is too early to register any health effects.\n\"When a uranium penetrator hits a hard target, the particles of the explosion are very long-lived in the environment,\" Dr Busby said yesterday. \"They spread over long distances. They can be inhaled into the lungs. The military really seem to believe that this stuff is not as dangerous as it is.\" Yet why would Israel use such a weapon when its targets - in the case of Khiam, for example - were only two miles from the Israeli border? The dust ignited by DU munitions can be blown across international borders, just as the chlorine gas used in attacks by both sides in the First World War often blew back on its perpetrators.\nChris Bellamy, the professor of military science and doctrine at Cranfield University, who has reviewed the Busby report, said: \"At worst it's some sort of experimental weapon with an enriched uranium component the purpose of which we don't yet know. At best - if you can say that - it shows a remarkably cavalier attitude to the use of nuclear waste products.\"\nThe soil sample from Khiam - site of a notorious torture prison when Israel occupied southern Lebanon between 1978 and 2000, and a frontline Hizbollah stronghold in the summer war - was a piece of impacted red earth from an explosion; the isotope ratio was 108, indicative of the presence of enriched uranium. \"The health effects on local civilian populations following the use of large uranium penetrators and the large amounts of respirable uranium oxide particles in the atmosphere,\" the Busby report says, \"are likely to be significant ... we recommend that the area is examined for further traces of these weapons with a view to clean up.\"\nThis summer's Lebanon war began after Hizbollah guerrillas crossed the Lebanese frontier into Israel, captured two Israeli soldiers and killed three others, prompting Israel to unleash a massive bombardment of Lebanon's villages, cities, bridges and civilian infrastructure. Human rights groups have said that Israel committed war crimes when it attacked civilians, but that Hizbollah was also guilty of such crimes because it fired missiles into Israel which were also filled with ball-bearings, turning their rockets into primitive one-time-only cluster bombs.\nMany Lebanese, however, long ago concluded that the latest Lebanon war was a weapons testing ground for the Americans and Iranians, who respectively supply Israel and Hizbollah with munitions. Just as Israel used hitherto-unproven US missiles in its attacks, so the Iranians were able to test-fire a rocket which hit an Israeli corvette off the Lebanese coast, killing four Israeli sailors and almost sinking the vessel after it suffered a 15-hour on-board fire.\nWhat the weapons manufacturers make of the latest scientific findings of potential uranium weapons use in southern Lebanon is not yet known. Nor is their effect on civilians.", "url": "http://news.independent.co.uk/world/fisk/article1935945.ece", "archive_url": "https://web.archive.org/web/20061102012217/http://news.independent.co.uk/world/fisk/article1935945.ece" }, { "language": "en", "title": "British newspaper says Israel used uranium bomb", "text": "The British newspaper, Independent, reported on Saturday that during this summer's war in Lebanon, Israel used uranium-tipped bunker-buster bombs.\nAccording to the report, Dr. Chris Busby, the British Scientific Secretary of the European Committee on Radiation Risk, found two soil samples thrown up by Israeli heavy or guided bombs which showed \"elevated radiation signatures.\" Busby says that these findings suggest Israel used radioactive weaponry.", "url": "http://fr.jpost.com/servlet/Satellite?cid=1161811220536&pagename=JPost/JPArticle/ShowFull", "archive_url": "https://web.archive.org/web/20111118081330/http://fr.jpost.com/servlet/Satellite?cid=1161811220536&pagename=JPost/JPArticle/ShowFull" }, { "language": "en", "title": "Dai Williams profile", "text": "The Eos life~work resource centre\nConsultant profile: Dai Williams\nI am an independent consultant specialising in career, organisation and community psychology issues. For Eos projects I work with other specialists in occupational psychology, human resource management, organisation change and occupational health.\nEducation\nI read Psychology and Sociology at Swansea University graduating in 1970. The Occupational Psychology Masters course at Birkbeck College, London University (77-79) was a major inspiration featuring many new developments in work, organisation and personal development psychology. I became a Chartered Occupational Psychologist in 1989.\nPrevious Employment\nFrom 1971-86 I worked with Shell in the UK and Canada in various Personnel functions including employee and public relations, career planning, personnel systems, job evaluation, job design, international recruitment and staff development. Work and life in Canada (81-83) offered me very different perspectives on employment and personal development from those in the UK. These included far more positive approaches to self-motivated careers and to age, gender and ethnic differences. I returned to Shell International to work as overseas recruitment and education advisor for companies in the Far East, Middle East and Africa (83-86) before voluntary redundancy created the opportunity to set up my own business.\nEos work & career psychology\nEos initially specialised in international graduate recruitment and education programmes for companies in the Far East. Clients included Singapore Airlines, Singapore Broadcasting Corporation and Guardian Pharmacy and several companies in Japan. From 1987-90 I was a member of the AGCAS Overseas Student Working Party working with UK university careers services, co-author of their handbooks on international careers for students and career advisers.\nEos life-career planning and outplacement programmes began in 1987 and became a major priority during the UK Recession, 1990 onwards. Traditional approaches to employment, career guidance and career patterns became obsolete as the UK labour market became more unstable. Eos programmes were developed to help clients cope with severe career crises, stress and change - both in and out of work. Many of the topics covered in Eos Life-Work Themes come from action research into problems faced by my clients. From these I have developed a \"toolkit\" for career planning and strategies for turning crises into opportunities for career and personal development.\nCorporate clients have used Eos programmes to assess training and development opportunities for management and departmental teams, development potential for staff, internal redeployment of staff (inplacement), redundancy programmes (outplacement) and support for staff in career or personal crisis situations. Sectors covered include IT, manufacturing, pharmaceutical, publishing, postal services and education plus family businesses and the self-employed.\nI have lectured part-time on the occupational psychology and counselling in organisations courses at Surrey University and joined Surrey Training & Enterprise Council's New Directions network when it was launched. Eos is now the longest established independent career consultancy in Surrey.\nEos community, political and peace psychology\nCareer challenges faced by individuals and employers are often symptoms of wider social and employment issues. My interests in this area are listed in the Community Psychology Index. I convened a national workshop on Psychological Effects of the Recession for the British Psychological Society in 1993 and became a contributor to the UK Forum for Organisational Health. I ran seminars with local support groups for the unemployed through the Recession and wrote a handbook for support group leaders and helpers with them.\nIn September 1997 I began to apply work psychology and organisation change principles to events in UK and international politics. On a hunch I applied transition psychology principles to anticipate the potential effects of trauma and change on UK politicians after the 1997 General Election. I wrote a short survival guide for MPs and ex-MPs After the Honeymoon, featured on BBC TV's Newsnight programme (Oct 97). A revised version called Parliament in Transition (Dec 97) suggested ways to move from crisis to recovery. This \"landslide syndrome\" appeared to affect members of the new Government and Opposition from Oct 97 to Feb 98. The predicted recovery phase took longer than expected but developed rapidly in spring 98.\nThrough 1998 I continued to monitor periods of crisis and recovery for individual MPs and political leaders. These indicated strong connections between psychological factors (good and bad) and national and international events in Northern Ireland, Iraq and Sudan. I convened a symposium on the Psychology of Change and its societal implications for the BPS Conference in January 1999 with three leading specialists in occupational psychology (see Human responses to change).\nDuring 1999 further events suggested wider psychological issues in conflict and political change especially the outlook for the Peace Process in Northern Ireland, the conduct and aftermath of the Balkans War and the Devolution transition. In January 2000 these were collated in a new analysis of psychological climate in the UK Government from April 98 with forecasts to Sept 2000, Accidents waiting to happen. These propositions have been covered from time to time in the press and by BBC Radio 4 but need testing in wider debate with other researchers and political analysts.\nMost occupational psychology research and practice focusses on business organisations. However many of the same principles apply to political careers and organisations. In one sense politics is just another employment sector. But in every country politicians determine the economic, social and legal environment that shapes the world of work. The successes and crises of national leaders and governments offer highly visible examples of the hazards and opportunities that face managers and staff in many other organisations.\nEncouraging real-time discussion of psychological processes in politics is hazardous. The conclusions are not always what press editors or politicians want to hear. Some media reports have been handled with great integrity. Others have been changed to suit editorial news campaigns. Accidents waiting to happen was reported in The Times on 6 July. The report was accurate but the headlines and illustration seriously mispresented the positive outlook for Government to support their \"spin war\" campaign against the Prime Minister. If the forecast recovery occurs this will become obvious within two months. Observations continue!\nFuture projects\nThe Eos Life-Work website is an exciting opportunity to increase public awareness of psychological hazards and opportunities in everyday life including:\nnew approaches to career and personal development for individuals and employers\nimportant interactions between work and personal life\nthe need for a new Fair Work Ethic to replace the obsolete Protestant Work Ethic\npsychological aspects of conflict and change in organisations and communities\npsychological aspects of national and international political processes\nthe opportunity for closer collaboration between psychologists and other professions on employment, community and political issues including peace psychology and psycho-history (see Professional Networking).\nThe Internet offers a fast and economical way to promote these issues in the UK and around the world.

In 1995 he was funded by the Joseph Rowntree Charitable Trust to develop his arguments and write Wings of Death: Nuclear Pollution and Human Health, an account of the results of his research into radiation and cancer and also into cancer increases in Wales which he argued were a result of global weapons fallout exposure.\nIn 1997 he was invited to the World Conference of Breast Cancer in Kingston, Ontario to outline his finding on breast cancer cohort effects in the weapons fallout generation women.\nIn 1997 he became the UK representative of the European Committee on Radiation Risk, and in 1998 was invited as expert speaker on radiation risk to the STOA workshop of the European Parliament. His analysis of the increases in childhood leukemia in Wales and Scotland following Chernobyl was recently published in the journal Energy and Environment. This is a defining study in that it shows unequivocally that the conventional model for low level radiation exposure from internal radioisotopes is in error by upward of 100-fold.\nHe is a member of the International Society for Environmental Epidemiology. He is also the national spokesman on Science and Technology for the Green Party of England and Wales, and in addition advises the Green Group in the European Parliament on radiation and health.\nRecently, he has traveled to Iraq and to Kosovo to investigate the health effects of Depleted Uranium, and has given formal evidence on two occasions to the Royal Society Committee on Depleted Uranium and health.\nIn 1994, he helped found the Low Level Radiation Campaign and has been its scientific consultant since then. He is currently funded by the Irish State to carry out research for the STAD litigation against BNFL Sellafield which involves cancer incidence and proximity to the Irish Sea.\nDr Busby is the author of many research papers and articles and is a director of Green Audit, the environmental consultancy, which he helped found in 1992.\nHe is a member of the UK Ministry of Defence Depleted Uranium Oversight Board and a member of the Committee Examining Radiation Risk of Internal Emitters, set up by the UK Departments of Health and Environment.\nDr. Busby has recently completed the draft of the 2002 Recommendations of the European Committee on Radiation Risk, which will shortly be published.

[ { "language": "en", "title": "Pope to visit Britain in 2010", "text": "The last papal visit was in May 1982 Pope Benedict XVI is to visit Britain in 2010, the BBC has learned. It will be the first papal visit to Britain since 1982, when Pope John Paul II's six-day tour drew huge crowds. The news of Pope Benedict's visit comes after Gordon Brown extended a formal invitation to the Pope during a private audience in February. A spokesman for the prime minister said he was \"delighted\" and \"it would be a moving and momentous occasion for the whole country\". Details of his visit have yet to emerge but the trip is set to be the first official state visit by a pontiff - John Paul II's visit in May 1982 was on a pastoral basis and did not follow an official invitation by the UK government. Masses were held in cities including Cardiff, London, Liverpool, Manchester and Edinburgh and he also met the Queen and Archbishop of Canterbury. 'Warmly received' A spokesman for Prime Minister Gordon Brown said: \"The PM is obviously delighted at the prospect of a visit from Pope Benedict XVI to Britain. \"It would be a moving and momentous occasion for the whole country and he would undoubtedly receive the warmest of welcomes.\" Conservative leader David Cameron said he was \"delighted\" to hear of the possible visit. He said: \"Such a visit - the first in over a quarter of a century - would be greatly welcomed not only by Roman Catholics but by the country as a whole.\" I'm sure I speak on behalf of Anglicans throughout Britain, in assuring him that he would be received with great warmth and joy\nArchbishop of Canterbury, Dr Rowan Williams The Roman Catholic Church in England and Wales also sent the Pope a formal invitation in 2007. The Archbishop of Canterbury, Dr Rowan Williams, said he had long hoped for such a visit. He said: \"I'm sure I speak on behalf of Anglicans throughout Britain, in assuring him that he would be received with great warmth and joy.\" The BBC's Robert Piggott said Mr Brown, who comes from a staunchly Protestant background, has met Pope Benedict three times. Our correspondent said the prime minister's invitation in February had been \"warmly received\" by the Vatican and was linked to the beatification of Cardinal Newman - England's most celebrated convert to Roman Catholicism. Closer to sainthood The Pope, who is 82, is said to have a particular interest in Newman and to support his canonisation, he said. Earlier this year, Pope Benedict approved as a miracle the cure of a US Roman Catholic deacon from a crippling spinal disease, bringing Cardinal Newman, who died in 1890, one step closer to sainthood. Deacon Jack Sullivan, who is to visit Britain in November, said he became completely free of pain after praying to Cardinal Newman in 2001. It is not yet known when and where Pope Benedict will visit but our correspondent said it was likely to be another six-day trip. He said there was a possibility that the Pope might visit Northern Ireland - unlike Pope John II who, on his visit to the Irish Republic in 1982, prayed for an end to sectarian violence in the North. Pope Benedict's visit would only be the second by a head of the Catholic Church since Henry VIII declared himself head of the church in England more than 500 years ago. There are an estimated 4.2 million Catholics in England and Wales. The National Secular Society said it was planning demonstrations against the visit in protest at what it called Pope Benedict's \"intransigence and fundamentalism\". A spokesman for the society said it would \"make clear to the Pope that whatever celebrations the government lays on for him, he is not welcomed here by everyone\". Your comments I am delighted that we have invited the Holy Father to Britain. It is a measure of how far the UK has come in its respect for what is very likely the largest practising Christian Church in the country. The relationship has evoked historical misgivings and conflict over many years. However, genuine people of good will respect all our faith groups that strive to make ours a better community. I feel very proud.\nChris Burke, Lincoln I now know when I'll be taking my holidays next year!\nBrian Brown, London It's good to see that the Pope is on a formal visit to visit England and Wales' many millions of Catholics. I'm not sure if I'll go and see him, but whilst, as your article points out, Gordon Brown is \"staunchly Protestant\", it is 500 years since The Reformation, so hopefully a little religious tolerance has crept into the country since then!\nSinead, St Albans It is wonderful news, the atmosphere during John Paul II's visit in 1982 was amazing, everyone prayerful and united. It will bring a renewal to the already growing Catholic faith in the UK.\nStephen Tsang, London\nBookmark with: Delicious\nDigg\nreddit\nFacebook\nStumbleUpon What are these?

An announcement is due to be made by Buckingham Palace and the Vatican in the next few days.\nBrown, a member of the Church of Scotland, has made three visits to the Vatican, and formally extended his invitation in February, when he met the pope with his wife, Sarah, and his children.\nWith 4 million Catholics in Britain, the news that the pope has agreed to visit will be seen as a much-needed political boost for Brown. But he may not be prime minister during the visit because it is likely to be next autumn, by which time David Cameron, if the polls are correct, will be installed in office.\nCameron has described his own Christianity as shaky, comparing his beliefs to the reception of Radio Chilterns: coming in and out from time to time.\nBut last night the Tory leader said: \"Such a visit – the first in over a quarter of a century – would be greatly welcomed not only by Roman Catholics but by the country as a whole.\"\nA spokesman for the prime minister said: \"It would be a moving and momentous occasion for the whole country and he would undoubtedly receive the warmest of welcomes.\"\nPope Benedict is expected to visit several parts of Britain, but interest will focus on whether he decides to travel to Northern Ireland, where his presence could stir sectarian trouble. Parts of the Protestant community in Northern Ireland would regard a visit by the pope as a provocative act.\nThe last pope to visit Britain was Benedict's predecessor, John Paul II, in May 1982, who visited England, Wales and Scotland during a six-day tour.\nLast night the Archbishop of Canterbury, Dr Rowan Williams, who was visiting the Anglican Church in Japan, said he was delighted that the pontiff would be visiting Britain. \"I'm sure I speak on behalf of Anglicans throughout Britain, in assuring him that he would be received with great warmth and joy.\"\nBut a spokesman for the National Secular Society said it would organise \"a coalition of groups to make clear to the pope that whatever celebrations the government lays on for him, he is not welcomed here by everyone\".\nThe pope is expected to mark the beatification of John Henry Newman, the most celebrated Anglican convert to Catholicism.\nIn June he announced the beatification of Newman, following recognition by the Vatican of the healing of an American man with a severe spinal condition as a miracle that was a result of praying to him.\nAs chancellor, Brown forged personal relations with the pope when he worked with him on his efforts to confront poverty in the developing world.\nBut the visit could raise issues about Labour's relations with the church, which have sometimes hit trouble owing to controversies such as the Human Fertilisation and Embryology Act, which allowed the use of hybrid embryos for use in medical research.", "url": "http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/2009/sep/23/pope-benedict-to-visit-britain", "archive_url": "https://web.archive.org/web/20090926172833/http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/2009/sep/23/pope-benedict-to-visit-britain" }, { "language": "en", "title": "Pope Benedict to visit Britain next year in first papal visit since 1982", "text": "Vatican's annoyance at No.10 leak of Pope's visit to Britain\nBy Tim Shipman and Nick Pisa\nLast updated at 3:55 PM on 24th September 2009\nDowning St has irritated the Vatican by announcing the Pope's historic visit to Britain.\nThe news emerged ahead of schedule from sources close to Gordon Brown as he travelled to the U.S. for a United Nations summit.\nPapal visits are usually announced by the Vatican or the Conference of Catholic Bishops in the host country.\nPope fever: Pope Benedict XVI has a wave for the faithful as he arrives for the traditional weekly Wednesday audience in Paul VI Hall in the Vatican City today\nA Vatican spokesman said yesterday: 'This sort of announcement is made by the Vatican and in this case the Catholic Bishops of England and Wales and to my knowledge it has not been made.'\nSenior Vatican sources also said the visit marked an 'unprecedented era in relations between the Pope and Britain'.\nIt will be the first papal visit in almost three decades.\nBenedict XVI is expected to travel to Northern Ireland as part of the trip - the first time a pontiff has been to Ulster.\nDespite its irritaion, the Vatican will announce the visit, which comes following an invitation from Gordon Brown, within days.\nIt is a coup for the Prime Minister who has succeeded where Catholic convert Tony Blair failed in persuading the 82-year-old German to visit Britain.\nIt will be only the second visit ever to British shores by a Pope since Henry VIII broke with the Roman Catholic Church to establish the Church of England in 1534.\nIn 1982 Pope John Paul II spent six days in Britain to great public acclaim.\nBut next year's event is likely to overshadow even that since it is being accorded the status of a state visit.\nPope Benedict will meet the Queen and may even stay at Buckingham Palace.

If confirmed by the Senate, Tanden would be the first woman of color and first South Asian American to head the agency.\nFILE - Neera Tanden, president of Center for American Progress, speaks during an introduction for New Start New Jersey at NJIT in Newark, Nov. 10, 2014.\nBiden also named Wally Adeyemo, a longtime economic policy official, to be Yellen’s deputy, the first African American to hold the second-ranking position at the Treasury Department.\nThe president-elect named labor economist Cecilia Rouse, dean of Princeton University’s public and international affairs school, as chair of the White House Council of Economic Advisers. She would be the first Black and the fourth woman to hold the job.\nBiden picked two other economists – Jared Bernstein and Heather Boushey – as members of the economic council.\n\"As we get to work to control the virus, this is the team that will deliver immediate economic relief for the American people during this economic crisis and help us build our economy back better than ever,\" Biden said in a statement.\nBiden’s Cabinet Picks Include Some Firsts What to know about Biden’s Cabinet selections so far\nThe coronavirus pandemic has wrought significant damage on the U.S. economy, the world’s largest.\nMany of the 22 million jobs lost as the virus swept into the United States from China and Europe have been recovered. While the number of layoffs of workers totaled in the millions several months ago, for much of October and November, more than 700,000 newly unemployed workers filed for unemployment compensation, even now a level unseen in records that date to the 1960s.\nBiden’s latest appointments underscore the incoming president’s promise to create a top rung of officials that demographically “looks like America,” one staffed with numerous female appointees and people of color. Biden’s nominees for top positions contrast the largely white, male-dominated roster of top officeholders in the outgoing administration of President Donald Trump.\nOn Sunday, Biden and Vice President-elect Kamala Harris named an all-woman communications team, to be headed by campaign communications director Kate Bedingfield and Jen Psaki as press secretary.\nFILE - Then-State Department spokeswoman Jen Psaki stands in on a meeting in Washington, Feb. 27, 2015.\nBiden received his first President’s Daily Brief on Monday, gaining access to the report prepared by the U.S. intelligence community on national security issues the United States faces.\nBiden is preparing to take office at his inauguration as the 46th U.S. president on January 20.

Er kann unter anderem mit der Unterstützung von Bolivien, Honduras und Belize rechnen.\nKandidat der US-Regierung zieht sich zurück\nFrancisco Flores\nDer Wunschkandidat der US-Regierung, Francisco Flores, hat sich inzwischen zurückgezogen. Während seiner Amtszeit als Präsident von El Salvador (1999-2004) fuhr er einen moderat-wirtschaftsliberalen Kurs. Er gehört der Alianza Republicana Nacionalista an, einer Partei, die von rechtsradikalen Kräften geprägt wurde. Er studierte in den USA. Während des Irak-Kriegs führte er El Salvador in die Koalition der \"Willigen\". Der 46-Jährige wurde nicht nur von den USA unterstützt, sondern auch von El Salvador, Guatemala, Nicaragua, Costa Rica und der Dominikanischen Republik.\n\"Als Kandidat der USA stößt Flores in Südamerika auf Misstrauen\", sagt Lateinamerika-Experte Peter Birle. Bleiben Mexikos Außenminister Luis Ernesto Derbez und der chilenische Innenminister José Miguel Insulza. Von Derbez und Insulza erwartet Birle keine großen Unterschiede in ihrer Art, die OAS zu leiten. Wäre Flores am Montag (11.42005) Generalsekretär geworden, dann hätten sich die Konflikte zwischen den USA und den lateinamerikanischen Staaten verschärfen können, sagt der Leiter der Forschungsabteilung des Ibero-Amerikanischen Instituts in Berlin.\nWenn die Lähmung durch den Streit über die Kandidaten beendet sei, stehe die OAS vor dringenden Aufgaben, sagt Birle. \"Das größte Problem der OAS ist ihre Irrelevanz\", urteilt er. 34 süd-, mittel- und nordamerikanischen Staaten gehören der OAS an. Nach ihrer Gründung 1948 sei die Organisation allerdings schnell in den Strudel des Kalten Krieges geraten und die USA als größter Geldgeber hätten versucht, sie für ihre antikommunistischen Ziele zu nutzen, urteilt Birle.\nDer Ausschluss Kubas aus der Organisation 1962 und die Unterstützung der US-Intervention in der Dominikanischen Republik 1965 seien Beispiele für diese Politik, sagt Birle. \"Die OAS wurde von den meisten lateinamerikanischen Staaten lediglich als Instrument der USA gesehen und nicht als wichtig eingeschätzt\", berichtet der Wissenschaftler.\nLeichte Verbesserung des Ansehens\nIn den 1980er Jahren habe sich ihr Ansehen durch eine konsequentere Menschenrechtspolitik und die Förderung von Demokratisierungsprozessen in Lateinamerika etwas verbessert. Der 11. September 2001 drohte jedoch viele Fortschritte wieder zunichte zu machen. \"Seitdem liegen die thematischen Prioritäten wieder bei den Themen, an denen die USA ein starkes Interesse haben, nämlich Sicherheit und Terrorismusbekämpfung\", sagt Birle. Um ihre Akzeptanz und damit ihre Bedeutung zu stärken, sollte die OAS die enge US-Definition von Sicherheit auf soziale Aspekte ausweiten und eigene Themenschwerpunkte setzen.\nHat die OAS also in der Zukunft eine Chance, sich zu einer eigenständigen Institution zu entwickeln? Der Südamerikaexperte ist skeptisch: \"Ich sehe gerade bei den USA nicht, dass sie augenblicklich bereit sind, sich auf einen wirklich funktionierenden Multilateralismus einzulassen.\" Zudem sei die Front der süd- und mittelamerikanischen Staaten nicht geschlossen. \"Auch da spielen Eigeninteressen eine große Rolle\", sagt Birle. Seine Empfehlung: \"Die OAS muss aufpassen, dass sie nicht wieder wie im Kalten Krieg das Image bekommt, ideologisch geprägt und Instrument der USA zu sein.\"", "url": "http://www.dw-world.de/dw/article/0,1564,1544089,00.html", "archive_url": "https://web.archive.org/web/20200921002522/https://www.dw.com/de/organisation-amerikanischer-staaten-w%C3%A4hlt-neue-spitze/a-1544089" }, { "language": "en", "title": "Chilean and Mexican Are Deadlocked for O.A.S.

Curtis Barger said. Their parents had dropped them off at a mall, and then they took a bus downtown where they were \"just goofing off,\" he said.\nThe boy yelled for the girls to run when he saw the train approach, then told them to jump, Barger said. Crane Creek, about 20 feet (six meters) below the bridge, is slow-moving and about 10 feet (three meters) deep. The girls did not have enough time.\nBruce Dumas, 53, said he was fishing in Crane Creek, about 20 feet (six meters) under the bridge, when he saw the teens walk onto the trestle around sunset. He warned them to be careful, but he said they didn't pay much attention to him.\n\"You know how kids are,\" Dumas said. \"They probably wanted pictures of themselves on the track.\"\nThe girls were about midway across when the train barreled down the tracks, blowing its whistle continuously, he said. Dumas said he could hear the sound of the brakes. After the impact, he heard a girl screaming and crying.\n\"I think the train was on them so fast they froze and didn't know what to do,\" Dumas said. \"It's crazy to watch a young life snuffed out like that. They didn't have a chance to live yet.\"\nThe teens could have jumped onto an old, rusty trestle next to one they were on, though it was unclear why they didn't.\nBarger said all the teens were from the area, but their identities weren't likely to be released until Monday, after officials can compare dental records.\nJohn Vallee, 54, lives near the trestle and was watching TV when he heard a loud screech. He told the Florida Today newspaper he went outside and first thought he saw a blanket tangled under a rail car. Then he realized it was a person.\n\"It's going to be hard for me to get to sleep,\" Vallee told the newspaper. \"I can't get it out of my mind.\"\nAuthorities in Melbourne, a city of about 77,000 nearly 50 miles (80 kilometres) southeast of Orlando, are investigating.\nThe track is owned by the Florida East Coast Railway, which operates about 350 miles (563 kilometres) of track along the state's east coast. Railway officials did not immediately return calls for comment.\nCopyright © 2010 The Canadian Press.

Su lucha en defensa de los derechos de las parejas del mismo sexo se inició hace más de 30 años y entre sus intervenciones más destacadas se encuentra su labor en 1998 como coordinador del programa de apoyo a familias gais y lesbianas, del Instituto Latinoamericano de Prevención en Salud. Además de sus esfuerzos para que el Estado entrara de lleno en la prevención del sida. En 2006, respaldado por los exdiputados Ana Helena Chacón, del Partido Unidad Social Cristiana (PUSC), y José Merino, del Frente Amplio, presentó un proyecto de ley sobre la unión entre personas del mismo sexo. “Fue tan grande su labor que le llevó a poner los intereses de estos grupos por encima de sus propios intereses”, comentó Sisy Castillo, cercana a Araya.

[ { "language": "fr", "title": "Deux Premiers ministres pour un seul pays: le chaos libyen - Afrique - RFI", "text": "Le Conseil de sécurité a renforcé les sanctions de l’ONU contre les groupes armés en Libye. Depuis la chute de Mouammar Kadhafi, en octobre 2011, le pays est morcelé en une multitude de milices rivales. Mais ce chaos sécuritaire se double désormais d'un chaos institutionnel, puisque l'ancienne assemblée a nommé lundi un second Premier ministre.\nPar Coralie Pierret\nL'ancien Parlement en Libye, qui a officiellement terminé son mandat en juin, a repris du service. Il a nommé un nouveau Premier ministre, lundi 25 août. Sauf que la Libye dispose déjà d'un gouvernement provisoire. Le pays pourrait donc se retrouver avec deux gouvernements rivaux et deux assemblées. Mais cette situation n'est pas nouvelle. Au printemps dernier, la Libye avait déjà deux gouvernements.\nCette nomination du Premier ministre par le CGN, le Conseil général national, est en quelque sorte un pied de nez au nouveau Parlement. La nouvelle assemblée installée à Tobrouk est boycottée par les islamistes du CGN, l'ancienne assemblée. Ces derniers ont largement perdu les élections de juin dernier. Ils se sont de nouveau réunis à Tripoli ces derniers jours pour nommer le nouveau Premier ministre, après la victoire des milices islamistes à l'aéroport de Tripoli.\nLes milices de Misrata contrôlent l'aéroport\nEn fin de semaine dernière, les brigades de Zintane ont déserté l'aéroport international qu'elles contrôlaient jusqu'à présent. Après plus d'un mois de combats, ce sont désormais les milices rebelles de Misrata qui sont les maîtres de la zone. Ces milices de Misrata, regroupées en coalition, ont lancé une opération appelée Aube de la Libye.\nC'est donc une victoire des islamistes autant qu'une défaite pour Khalifa Haftar. Ce général qui en mai dernier avait lancé une vaste offensive baptisée Opération Dignité. L'objectif étant selon ses propres mots « de purger le pays des terroristes ».\nLes milices islamistes de Misrata terrorisent depuis plusieurs semaines la capitale. L'aéroport international est en ruine. Des photos publiées sur les réseaux sociaux montraient un appareil de la Libyan Airlines en feu tandis que des colonnes de fumée s'élevaient au-dessus de l'aéroport. Une dizaine d'avions de ligne ont été détruits et deux Airbus A320 d'Afrikiya ont disparu. Des violences ont également été observées dans le centre de Tripoli. A deux reprises, les 18 et 23 août, des avions de chasse ont bombardé Tripoli.\nLes Emirats Arabes Unis et l'Egypte derrière les frappes aériennes\nWashington attribue ces frappes aériennes aux Emirats Arabes Unis avec le soutien logistique de l'Egypte. Les raids visaient les positions des milices de Misrata. Le mystère de ces frappes a été éclairci au bout d'une semaine seulement, après un article du New York Times. Cette thèse a été confirmée par la suite par le département d'Etat américain. Sauf que les principaux intéressés, eux, ne confirment pas. L'Egypte a formellement démenti toute implication militaire directe en Libye. Les Emirats restent muets.\nAlors pourquoi ces deux pays interviendraient en Libye ? Déjà en mai dernier, sur l'antenne de RFI, les jihadistes de Benghazi accusaient l'Egypte de soutenir le général Haftar, ce dernier qui est surnommé le « petit Sissi » au Caire, en référence au président égyptien. Les deux pays, l'Egypte et les Emirats, mènent une politique stricte contre les Frères musulmans. En Egypte, l'organisation est pouchassée depuis la destitution du président Morsi en juillet 2013. Or, les milices de Misrata, qui ont repris du service à Tripoli, seraient proches des Frères musulmans. Et c'est là que le jeu se complique. Un troisième pays du golfe entre en jeu : le Qatar, qui lui soutient les Frères musulmans. L'Egypte et les Emirats auraient bombardé Tripoli pour affaiblir les milices de Misrata et ainsi atteindre indirectement Doha. Et avec ces trois pays impliqués dans le conflit libyen, certains observateurs s'inquiètent de la régionalisation du conflit.\nUne escalade qui inquiètent également les Occidentaux. Washington, Paris, Londres, Berlin et Rome, ensemble, ont condamné « les interférences extérieures en Libye qui exacerbent les divisions » Selon certains analystes, les Occidentaux n'ont pas été consultés avant ces frappes aériennes. Abu Dhabi et Le Caire souhaitent faire cavalier seul, persuadés qu'ils ne peuvent plus dépendre de l'Amérique et de l'Occident.", "url": "http://www.rfi.fr/afrique/20140828-libye-onu-sanctions-tripoli-misrata-milices-emirats-arabes-unis-kadhafi-qatar-egypte-freres-musulmans/#./?&_suid=140924141367808240478216991844", "archive_url": "https://web.archive.org/web/20140829063833/http://www.rfi.fr/afrique/20140828-libye-onu-sanctions-tripoli-misrata-milices-emirats-arabes-unis-kadhafi-qatar-egypte-freres-musulmans/#./?&_suid=140924141367808240478216991844" } ]

(11.06.2006, 15:07 Uhr)\nAuch an den Stadioneingängen kam es wegen der verschärften Sicherheits- und Ticketkontrollen weder zu langwierigen Staus noch zu Unmut der Fans. «Es gab keine Schwierigkeiten bei der Stadion- Befüllung und bei den Stichproben artigen Kartenkontrollen», erklärte OK-Sprecher Gerd Graus in Berlin. «Viele Besucher hatten bereits ihren Personalausweis in der Hand.» Die Tickets waren namentlich gebunden verkauft worden.\nZahlreiche bei der Kartenvergabe leer ausgegangene Fans nutzten die nur sporadisch durchgeführten Namensabgleiche zwischen Ticket und Ausweis, um sich auf dem Schwarzmarkt noch ein Billet zu beschaffen. Bis zu 1450 Euro verlangten Händler vor dem WM-Spiel England gegen Paraguay in Frankfurt am Main für ein Ticket. Warnungen der Polizei, die über Lautsprecher vor möglichen Kartenfälschungen hinwiesen, verhallten meist unbeachtet.\n«Wir sind nicht so blauäugig gewesen zu glauben, dies völlig ausschalten zu können», meinte Niersbach. «Den Schwarzmarkt gibt es so lange wie das Tennisturnier in Wimbledon, und das ist über 100 Jahre alt.» Das OK hat nach eigenen Angaben mehr als 99 Prozent aller Tickets verkauft. Dass trotz des Karten-Ansturms bei den Spielen England gegen Paraguay mehr als 20.000 Briten im Frankfurter Stadion waren und bei der Partie Polen gegen Ecuador in Gelsenkirchen fast 40.000 polnische Anhänger in der Arena Platz fanden, hält das OK für Zufall. «Der Kartenverkauf ist im Internet vonstatten gegangen. Da hat das Glück eine Rolle gespielt», sagte Graus über die auffällig großen Fan-Kontingente.\nIn puncto Sicherheit gab es keine ernsten Zwischenfälle in den und um die WM-Spielstätten. «Es gab überhaupt keine größeren Vorfälle», bilanzierte FIFA-Mediendirektor Markus Siegler. Eine kleine Sicherheitspanne hatten die Ordnungskräfte schnell im Griff: Nach der Begegnung England gegen Paraguay hatten sich zwei englische Fans Zutritt zum Innenraum und zum Spielertunnel verschafft. «Sie sind gleich aufgegriffen und weggeführt worden», berichtete Graus. Zum Zeitpunkt des Vorfalls befand sich der englische Thronfolger Prinz Williams in der Nähe der englischen Kabine. «Kein Anlass zur Besorgnis», meinte Graus.

Vielmehr startete man am ersten WM-Wochenende wie die deutsche Fußballmannschaft: Glänzend im Angriff, mit großen Schwächen in der Verteidigung. Ob in Frankfurt, Dortmund oder Gelsenkirchen: Solange an den Einlässen ein grünes Licht signalisierte, dass das Ticket selbst in Ordnung war, wurden die Besucher ins Stadion gelassen.

Dez 2010, 10:49\nDie private Krankenversicherung und die Ärzteschaft streiten um die neuerliche Ausgestaltung der Gebührenverordnung. Dabei geht es wie immer um das liebe Geld. Die PKV möchte sparen, die Ärzteschaft bangt um ihre Einnahmen. Die Öffnungsklausel soll in Zukunft mehr Wettbewerb bringen. Die Ärzteschaft befürchtet jedoch Preisdumping.\nEinnahmen und Ausgaben: Streit um die Balance\nDie Bundesregierung will im kommenden Jahr die Gebührenverordnungen für die Ärzteschaft überarbeiten. Diese regelt die Honorarzahlungen für die jeweiligen medizinischen Leistungen. Die Notwendigkeit einer Reform ergibt sich aus der Aktualität dieser Verordnung - sie wurde schon seit Jahrzehnten nicht überarbeitet. Daraus resultiert eine Diskrepanz zwischen festgeschriebenen Vorgaben und der medizinisch-technischen Wirklichkeit. Neue Behandlungsmethoden finden sich erst gar nicht in diesem Leistungskatalog. Die Gebührenverodnung hinke dem medizinischen Fortschritt hinterher, so der Verband der privaten Krankenversicherung (PKV-Verband) in einer Pressemitteilung. Über die Notwendigkeit zur Neugestaltung sind sich die private Krankenversicherung und die Ärzteschaft im Grunde einig. Doch bei den Detailfragen offenbaren sich die Konfliktpunkte.\nÖffnungsklausel: Dumpinggefahr?\nEin Wort scheint der Ärzteschaft in diesem Zusammenhang ein Dorn im Auge zu sein: Die sogenannte Öffnungsklausel. Sie würde der PKV die Möglichkeit geben, mit den Ärzten dirkete Verträge über die Vergütung medizinischer Leistungen abzuschließen. Die Versicherer sehen hierin große Einsparmöglichkeiten. Die Ärzteschaft sieht jedoch die Gefahr des Preisdumpings, eine mögliche “Aldisierung der Medizin”, so Peter Engel, Präsident der Bundeszahnärztekammer (BZÄK).\nAusgaben steigen deutlich an - Reform nötig\nDass es bei diesem Thema zu öffentlichen Schlagabtauschen kommt, ist obligatrisch, denn es geht ums Geld. Die private Krankenversicherung will ihre Ausgaben senken, um wettberwerbsfähiger und auch zukunftsfähiger zu sein. Allein die Ausgaben für ambulante Leistungen sind zwischen 2007 und 2009 um mehr als zwölf Prozent gestiegen, die Ausgaben für Zahnleistungen stiegen in einem ähnlichen Rahmen. Die Ärzteschaft befürchtet nun Einschnitte in Form von Budgetierung oder Deckelungen der Ausgaben. Dies sei jedoch nach Aussage des PKV-Verbands unbegründet. Diese Aspekte finden sich nicht im Konzept der privaten Krankenversicherung zur Reform der Gebührenverodnung. Die PKV will “Verbesserungen in der Qualität” und keine starre Vorgaben ohne Möglichkeit der Abweichung.\nZahlmeister private Krankenversicherung\nFür die private Krankenversicherung stellt die Öffnungsklausel kein Problem dar. Letztlich wären auch mit dieser Lockerung Verträge mit den Ärzten notwendig, die nur im beiderseitigem Einvernehmen abgeschlossen werden, also auch zur beiderseitigen Zufriedenheit. Hinsichtlich der Einsparungen der Ausgaben bei der gesetzlichen Krankenversicherung wolle man jedoch nicht den “Zahlmeister” für die Ausfälle der Ärzteschaft spielen.", "url": "http://www.1a-krankenversicherung.de/nachrichten/private-krankenversicherung-und-aerzte-streiten-ueber-honorare-10585", "archive_url": "https://web.archive.org/web/20101211204745/http://www.1a-krankenversicherung.de/nachrichten/private-krankenversicherung-und-aerzte-streiten-ueber-honorare-10585" } ]

Brooks announced today that a supercomputer developed through the Advanced Simulation and Computing program for NNSA’s Stockpile Stewardship efforts has performed 135.3 trillion floating point operations per second (teraflops) on the industry standard LINPACK benchmark, making it the fastest supercomputer in the world. To provide cooling for BlueGene/L, designers came up with this innovative slanted edge, allowing refrigerated air to circulate more efficiently through the computer's racks. By performing computations at these rates, BlueGene/L helps maintain the U.S. nuclear weapons stockpile without nuclear testing. This performance was achieved at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (LLNL) at only the half-system point of the IBM BlueGene/L installation. Last November, just one-quarter of BlueGene/L topped the TOP500 List of the world’s top supercomputers. “Blue Gene/ L will address vital challenges critical to ensuring the safety and reliability of the nation’s aging nuclear weapon stockpile,” said Administrator Brooks. “This supercomputer provides an essential resource to the weapons complex, allowing us to address time-urgent and mission-critical scientific issues that require such specialized computational capabilities.” Results of scientific importance have already been accomplished with only one-quarter of BlueGene/L. Scientists at LLNL for the first time have performed 16-million-atom molecular dynamics simulations with the highest accuracy inter-atomic potentials necessary to resolve the key physical effects to successfully model pressure induced rapid resolidification in Tantalum. As a shared resource, BlueGene/L has enabled scientists studying the effects of voids in metal failure at Los Alamos National Laboratory to perform standard accuracy molecular dynamics simulations with more than 2.1 billion atoms. The unique BlueGene/L \"compute card\" consists of two nodes, each containing two central processing units (CPUs) including four megabytes of dedicated memory. Also mounted on the circuit board are a memory controller module and nine separate memory chips, similar to those in standard home and office desktop computers. “BlueGene/L’s latest accomplishment is an important step toward achieving the capabilities we need to succeed in our stockpile stewardship mission,” said Michael Anastasio, LLNL’s Director. “BlueGene/L allows us to address computationally taxing stockpile science issues at very low cost. Effective and relatively inexpensive supercomputers of this nature will open doors for scientists across the country.” “This milestone demonstrates our continued commitment to revolutionize the way supercomputers are built and to broaden the kinds of innovative applications we can run on them,” said Nick Donofrio, senior vice president of technology and manufacturing at IBM. “BlueGene/L’s record-setting performance underscores the power of open standards and collaboration in driving true, meaningful innovation that benefits society.” Established by Congress in 2000, NNSA is a semi-autonomous agency within the U.S. Department of Energy responsible for maintaining and enhancing the safety, security, reliability and performance of the U.S. nuclear weapons stockpile without nuclear testing; working to reduce global danger from weapons of mass destruction; providing the U.S. Navy with safe and effective nuclear propulsion; and responding to nuclear and radiological emergencies in the United States and abroad. Founded in 1952, Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory has a mission to ensure national security and to apply science and technology to the important issues of our time. Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory is managed for NNSA by the University of California.", "url": "http://www.llnl.gov/pao/news/news_releases/2005/NR-05-03-09.html", "archive_url": "https://web.archive.org/web/20050327011022/http://www.llnl.gov/pao/news/news_releases/2005/NR-05-03-09.html" } ]

Nicolas Sarkozy setzte sich bei der Stichwahl am Sonntag mit 53 Prozent gegen seine sozialistische Rivalin Segolene Royal durch, die nach ersten Hochrechnungen auf 47 Prozent kam. In seiner ersten Rede nach der Wahl betonte Sarkozy, niemanden ausgrenzen zu wollen.\nDer künftige französische Präsident Nicolas Sarkozy hat das Land nach seinem Wahlsieg am Sonntagabend zur Einheit aufgerufen. Er wolle Präsident aller Franzosen sein, sagte der Wahlsieger vor seinen Anhängern in Paris. Zugleich sprach er seiner unterlegenen sozialistischen Konkurrentin Segolene Royal seinen Respekt aus. Schließlich hätten Millionen Franzosen für sie als Präsidentin gestimmt.\nSarkozy kündigte an, den Kampf gegen den Klimawandel zu einem Schwerpunkt seiner Amtszeit zu machen. An die USA appellierte er, sich an die Spitze dieses Kampfes zu setzen, von dem das Überleben der Menschheit abhänge. Eine solch große Nation wie die Vereinigten Staaten habe die Pflicht dazu. An die europäischen Partner gewandt bekannte sich Sarkozy zu Europa, das aber die Sorgen der Menschen ernst nehmen müsse.\nZugleich unterstrich der bürgerliche Politiker noch einmal, dass er die Arbeit, die Autorität, Moral und Respekt aufwerten und den Franzosen den Stolz auf ihr Land zurückgeben wolle. Er werde als Staatschef im Geiste der Brüderlichkeit handeln, niemand solle ausgegrenzt werden. Die Schwachen der Gesellschaft wolle er schützen, sagte Sarkozy.\nDer scheidende Präsident Jacques Chirac beglückwünschte seinen Nachfolger zu seinem Wahlerfolg. Auch Bundeskanzlerin Angela Merkel gratulierte Sarkozy. Unter ihm werde „die bewährte deutsch-französische Freundschaft auch weiterhin die Grundlage sein, um Frieden, Demokratie und Wohlstand in Europa dauerhaft zu sichern“, erklärte Merkel am Abend in Berlin.\nFoto: AFP Royal räumte unmittelbar nach Schließung der Wahllokale ihre Niederlage ein und gratulierte Sarkozy zum Sieg. Der 52-jährige von Gegnern als Polarisierer kritisierte Politiker hatte in Umfragen seit Monaten vorn gelegen. Royal versuchte im Wahlkampf zuletzt mit heftigen Attacken vergeblich, das Blatt noch zu wenden. Sarkozy wird am 16. oder 17. Mai das Amt antreten und eine neue Regierung bilden, bevor im Juni ein neues Parlament gewählt wird.\nBei der Wahl zeichnete sich eine hohe Beteiligung ab, die mit voraussichtlich 85 Prozent noch die Zahlen aus der ersten Wahlrunde in den Schatten stellte. Vor zwei Wochen hatten sich Sarkozy als Wahlsieger und Royal als Zweitplatzierte gegen zehn Konkurrenten durchgesetzt.\nBereits Stunden vor Schließung der Wahllokale waren über belgische Medien erste inoffizielle Prognosen bekannt geworden, mit denen sich ein klarer Sieg Sarkozys abzeichnete. Bevor die ersten Prognosen in Frankreich über die Bildschirme flimmerten, stimmten sich die Anhänger des konservativen Kandidaten in Paris mit dem Ruf „Wir haben gewonnen“ auf eine rauschende Wahlnacht ein. Anders die Stimmung in der sozialistischen Parteizentrale: Dort vermieden die Berater Royals zuletzt jeden Kontakt mit Journalisten, als sich die drohende Niederlage abzeichnete. Die ganz in Weiß gekleidete Royal sagte in ihrer Rede vor den Anhängern: „Ich hoffe, der nächste Präsident der Republik wird seiner Rolle im Dienste aller Franzosen gerecht.“\nIm Wahlkampfendspurt attackierten sich die beiden Kontrahenten in einer bislang nicht gekannten Schärfe. Sarkozy warf seiner sozialistischen Konkurrentin am Samstag vor, sie habe aus Verzweiflung die fundamentalen Regeln der Demokratie mit „kriegsähnlicher Sprache“ verletzt. Die 53-jährige Sozialistin hatte in einem Rundfunkinterview gewarnt, falls Sarkozy zum Präsidenten gewählt werde, könnte es zu Gewaltausbrüchen kommen.\nSchlagworte Frankreich Präsidentschaftswahl Nicolas Sarkozy Ségolène Royal Sie spielte damit auf die umstrittenen Äußerungen des früheren Innenministers während der Vorstadtunruhe Ende 2005 an, als Sarkozy gewaltbereite Einwanderer als Gesindel bezeichnete und viele Immigranten damit gegen sich aufbrachte. Bereits bei einem Fernsehduell hatte Royal ihrem Konkurrenten hart zugesetzt, war in Umfragen jedoch nicht als Sieger der Redeschlacht hervorgegangen. Royal konnte für sich jedoch bereits den Einzug in die Stichwahl als persönlichen Erfolg verbuchen, nachdem ihr Vorgänger Lionel Jospin bei der Wahl 2002 völlig überraschend bereits in der ersten Runde ausgeschieden und der rechtsextreme Jean-Marie Le Pen in die Stichwahl gegen Chirac gekommen war.\nDer Nachfolger des 74-jährigen Amtsinhabers erbt ein stark reformbedürftiges Land. Das Wachstum ist schleppend, der Arbeitsmarkt in schlechter Verfassung. Zwar ist Frankreich die zweitgrößte Volkswirtschaft der Euro-Zone, hat ein Veto-Recht im UN-Sicherheitsrat und ist eine Atommacht. Die Gesellschaft aber ist zersplittert, Wirtschaftsreformen sind überfällig, die Schulden hoch. Sarkozy, der als Wunschkandidat der Wirtschaft gilt, will vor allem den Arbeitsmarkt reformieren und so das Wirtschaftswachstum ankurbeln.\nDer französische Präsident, der für fünf Jahre gewählt wird, hat weit reichende Kompetenzen. Er ist Oberbefehlshaber der Streitkräfte, ernennt den Ministerpräsidenten und hat das Recht, das Parlament, die Nationalversammlung, aufzulösen. Zudem ist er für die Außen- und Verteidigungspolitik zuständig. Wenngleich die beiden Bewerber sehr unterschiedliche Pläne haben, gilt es als unwahrscheinlich, dass sich der von Chirac geprägte außenpolitische Akzent grob verschieben wird. Jedoch steht Sarkozy den USA näher als Royal. Zudem ist er strikt gegen einen Beitritt der Türkei zur Europäischen Union.", "url": "http://www.welt.de/politik/article855150/Sarkozy_will_Praesident_aller_Franzosen_sein_.html", "archive_url": "https://web.archive.org/web/20070508140304/http://www.welt.de/politik/article855150/Sarkozy_will_Praesident_aller_Franzosen_sein_.html" } ]

Druker.\nIf she were to, she might be a little less glib about “the hysterical distrust of science” and whether distrust of the genetic engineering project is “fearmongering,” “wildly untruthful” and “unproductive.”\nPatrick L. Brown\nKailua\nMany rail riders will still have to catch buses\nMany Ewa commuters will want to go to the University of Hawaii-Manoa or Waikiki, not downtown or Ala Moana, so with the current plans for rail transit, they eventually will have to transfer to a bus.\nIf we convert the rail guideways to bus guideways and end them at Middle Street or Iwilei, individual buses could continue on surface roads to various express destinations. Commuters could get over freeway bottlenecks and would have to catch only one express bus to do it.\nModern express buses are far more comfortable than many realize. Transit time for the existing express bus from Kapolei to Ala Moana is only about 10 minutes more than what is projected for the train, and the articulated buses currently on Honolulu roads have a capacity equal to the planned train cars.\nThis option could be both better and cheaper than rail.

Ban Ki-moon:\nVoyage du Secrétaire général au Pérou\nLe Secrétaire général s’est entretenu aujourd’hui, à Lima, avec le Président du Pérou, M. Alan Garcia.\nIntervenant ensuite dans le cadre d’une conférence de presse conjointe donnée avec le Président Garcia, le Secrétaire général a indiqué que le Pérou avait accompli des progrès considérables au cours de la dernière décennie, notamment en matière de consolidation de la démocratie et de réalisation des Objectif du Millénaire pour le développement (OMD).\nÀ présent, a ajouté Ban Ki-moon, le défi à relever consiste à étendre les gains qu’ont permis ces progrès aux personnes les plus vulnérables du pays, notamment dans les zones rurales, où vit la majorité de la population autochtone. Cet après-midi, le Secrétaire général prononcera une allocution à l’Université nationale de San Marcos. Il y parlera de l’édification d’un monde plus durable et plus équitable.\nLe Secrétaire général sera de retour à New York demain matin.\nItalie – Tunisie\nLe Haut-commissariat pour les réfugiés (HCR) et ses partenaires ont dépêché des missions à Lampedusa, ainsi que dans plusieurs autres lieux du sud de l’Italie, pour aider les autorités locales à gérer le récent afflux d’arrivants de nationalité tunisienne.\nLe HCR a indiqué que, selon le Gouvernement italien, plus de 5 200 personnes sont arrivées depuis la mi-janvier, la vaste majorité d’entre elles, à savoir plus de 4 000 personnes, ayant débarqué au cours des derniers jours.\nLe HCR a ajouté que l’arrivée d’un nombre aussi important de personnes en si peu de temps a provoqué des pressions notables sur la petite île de Lampedusa. Un centre d’accueil conçu pour 800 personnes en héberge actuellement 2 000. De plus, suite aux vols aériens organisés pour soulager Lampedusa du surpeuplement dont était menacée l’île, d’autres centres d’accueil en Italie ont également atteint leur capacité maximale.\nLe HCR indique que ses contacts avec les nouveaux venus montrent que si la majorité de ces personnes est composée de gens en quête d’emploi, d’autres craignent une irruption de violence et une faillite de l’état de droit dans les régions dont elles sont originaires en Tunisie. L’agence se félicite de l’engagement du Gouvernement italien de donner accès aux procédures d’asile aux personnes qui cherchent à obtenir une protection internationale et lance un appel pour que la communauté internationale soit solidaire de l’Italie, alors que le pays fait face à un nouveau chapitre de migration mixte.\nCôte d’Ivoire – Libéria\nDans l’ouest de la Côte d’Ivoire, le Haut-commissariat pour les réfugiés (HCR) a commencé à déblayer le terrain pour la construction d’un nouveau camp de personnes déplacées. À ce jour, l’agence a recensé 38 600 personnes à la dérive.\nLe HCR recherche également d’autres sites afin d’héberger davantage de personnes déplacées, notamment au vu du fait que, jusqu’à présent, nombre de ces personnes ont survécu grâce à la générosité des familles et des organisations caritatives locales.\nL’agence onusienne indique que la poursuite des tensions en Côte d’Ivoire pousse certaines familles à se rapprocher de la frontière avec le Libéria, tandis que d’autres traversent la frontière en quête d’asile. Le HCR y a déjà recensé plus de 36 000 nouveaux arrivants. L’agence précise qu’elle se prépare à héberger 100 000 réfugiés au Libéria.\nLe Fonds des Nations Unies pour l’enfance (UNICEF) ajoute que la grande majorité, soit 85%, des réfugiés qui se trouvent au Libéria, est composée de femmes et d’enfants. L’UNICEF est préoccupé par de graves pénuries en aliments, l’absence d’abris adéquats et le risque d’irruption de maladies.\nSuite à l’apparition de la rougeole, qui a provoqué la mort de cinq enfants libériens dans le comté de Nimba, où se trouvent 97% des réfugiés, l’UNICEF appui une campagne de santé destinée aux enfants âgés entre 6 mois et 16 ans. L’UNICEF a également distribué des vivres et des médicaments, ainsi que des traitements contre le VIH/sida à des centres de santé et à des organisations qui sont ses partenaires.\nConseil de sécurité\nCe matin, M. Andronius Azubalis, Président de l’Organisation pour la sécurité et la coopération en Europe (OSCE) et Ministre des affaires étrangères de la Lituanie, a présenté un exposé aux membres du Conseil de sécurité.\n* *** *", "url": "http://www.un.org/News/fr-press/docs//2011/dbf110215.doc.htm", "archive_url": "https://web.archive.org/web/20140214070338/http://www.un.org/News/fr-press/docs//2011/dbf110215.doc.htm" } ]

[ { "language": "de", "title": "Katalonien wird etwas katalanischer", "text": "Besonders überzeugte Nationalisten in Katalonien nehmen derzeit die Euphorie über den glanzvollen Auftritt der spanischen Nationalmannschaft bei der Fußball-WM eher missmutig zur Kenntnis. Hätten sie doch lieber eine eigene, katalonische Auswahl bei dem Turnier. Daraus wird aber in absehbarer Zeit nichts werden. Die FIFA lehnt eine eigene katalanische Nationalmannschaft ab und daran wird sich auch wohl in nächster Zukunft nichts ändern.\nSeit Sonntag (19.6.06) dürfen sich die 6,8 Millionen Katalanen noch etwas katalanischer fühlen als vorher. Sie stimmten mit rund 74 Prozent für das neue Autonomie-Statut. Lediglich 21 Prozent votierten mit Nein. Der bereits vom spanischen Parlament verabschiedete Gesetzestext gewährt den Katalanen mehr politische und finanzielle Eigenständigkeit gegenüber der Zentralregierung in Madrid. Die reichste der 17 autonomen Regionen dürfe künftig noch eigenständiger als bisher seine Steuern einziehen, sagt Maria Nuñez, Expertin für Staatsrecht an der Fernuniversität UNED in Madrid. \"Einzigartig ist, dass in dem 'Estatut' (so die Bezeichnung auf katalanisch, d. Red.) festgehalten ist, dass sich Katalonien als Nation bezeichnen darf\", sagt Nuñez.\nKatalanisch ist Pflicht\nIn dem Statut werden die katalanische Flagge, die Hymne und der regionale Feiertag als \"nationale Symbole\" bezeichnet. Die Justiz erhält mehr Eigenständigkeit. Die katalanische Sprache wird aufgewertet. \"Die Behörden sollen nun vorzugsweise auf katalanisch kommunizieren\", sagt Joaquin Molins, Professor für Politikwissenschaft an der autonomen Universität Barcelona. Auch in den Schulen soll nur noch in katalanischer Sprache unterrichtet werden. Geschäfte sollen demnächst ihre Werbeschilder in katalanischer Sprache verfassen.\n1979 hatte Katalonien erstmals ein Autonomie-Statut erhalten. \"Das ist damals mit einem breiten politischen Konsens geschehen\", sagt Molins. Von der Neufassung könne davon keine Rede sein. Monatelang wurde um den Text gerungen. \"Die politischen Parteien haben sich in dieser Frage verschlissen\", sagt Nuñez. Die Debatte hat das Land tief gespalten, wieder einmal war die Rede von den \"zwei Spanien\".\nKonservative warnen vor \"Balkanisierung Spaniens\"\nDer sozialistische Ministerpräsident José Luis Rodríguez Zapatero wertete den Ausgang der Volksabstimmung als Fortschritt für die Demokratie im Land. Seiner Ansicht nach spiegelt das Statut die Vielfältigkeit des Landes wider. Er ist überzeugt, dass sich die einzelnen Regionen stärker an Spanien gebunden fühlen, wenn ihre Eigenständigkeit anerkannt wird. Kritik an der niedrigen Beteiligung von 49 Prozent wies er zurück.\nDagegen erklärte Oppositionsführer Mariano Rajoy die Reform angesichts der niedrigen Beteiligung für gescheitert. \"Hier wird das verfassungsmäßige Spanien liquidiert\", sagt er. Die konservative Opposition sieht in dem Autonomie-Statut einen Angriff auf die \"nationale Einheit\" des Landes. Der frühere Regierungschef José María Aznar warnte mit Blick auf den Zerfall Jugoslawiens gar vor einer \"Balkanisierung\" Spaniens.\nDen Linksrepublikanern (ERC) dagegen geht die zur Abstimmung stehende Version nicht weit genug. Sie fordern langfristig die Unabhängigkeit der Region. Solche Bestrebungen, wie sie auch im spanischen Baskenland bestehen, lehnt aber auch Zapatero ab.\nFranco-Zeit wirkt nach\nFür die emotionalen Wogen gibt es vor allem historische Gründe. \"Katalonien definiert sich seit je her als anders als der Rest Spaniens, ähnlich wie das Baskenland oder Galicien\", sagt Nuñez. Man habe eine eigene Sprache, eigene Sitten und Gebräuche. \"Und diese besondere Identität soll auch betont und erhalten werden.\" Während der Franco-Zeit wurden diese Eigenheiten unterdrückt. Das sei noch längst nicht vergessen.\nMit dem neuen Statut setzt sich Katalonien etwas von den anderen Regionen ab, was Kompetenzen angeht. Die meisten anderen wollen jetzt nachziehen, wie zum Beispiel Andalusien oder die Balearen-Inseln. Dort hatte sich das Regionalparlament am 13.6.06 mit überwältigender Mehrheit für eine größere Selbstverwaltung ausgesprochen. Ein erbitterter Streit, wie es ihn um das Autonomie-Statut für Katalonien gegeben hat, blieb auf den Balearen aber aus.\nDie Region mit den am weitesten reichenden Kompetenzen ist und bleibt aber das Baskenland. \"Das hat eine einzigartige Stellung. Es hat mehr Kompetenzen als beispielsweise die deutschen Bundesländer\", sagt Nuñez. So erhebt das Baskenland sämtliche Steuern und gibt davon einen Teil an den Zentralstaat. Bei den restlichen Autonomien ist es anders herum.", "url": "http://www.dw-world.de/dw/article/0,2144,2056866,00.html", "archive_url": "https://web.archive.org/web/20060621073234/http://www.dw-world.de/dw/article/0%2C2144%2C2056866%2C00.html" }, { "language": "es", "title": "Cataluña vota a favor del Estatuto de forma rotunda, pese a una abstención del 50,59%", "text": "sí al Estatuto en el Palau de la Generalitat. (CARLES RIBAS)\nampliar Imma Mayol y Joan Saura, de ICV, y Pasqual Maragall y su esposa, Diana Garrigosa, celebran elal Estatuto en el Palau de la Generalitat.\nPasqual Maragall afirma que el nuevo Estatuto da tanto autogobierno que en Cataluña \"se ha acabado el victimismo\" El 'sí' logra el 73,90% de los votos, el 'no' se queda en el 20,76%, y las papeletas en blanco suman un 5,34% Zapatero felicita a los catalanes, mientras Rajoy deslegitima el resultado y reclama la vuelta al viejo Estatuto\nCataluña aprobó ayer su nuevo Estatuto con una aplastante mayoría de votos a favor del sí (73,9%) pero con una baja participación, que rozó el 50%. Con la ratificación del texto elaborado por el Parlamento catalán y corregido en las Cortes, se pone en marcha el nuevo Estado de las Autonomías impulsado por el Gobierno de José Luis Rodríguez Zapatero, basado en una mejor financiación, más competencias y una redefinición de la identidad de las distintas comunidades.\nEl Estatuto sometido a referéndum sólo cosechó un 20,76% de sufragios en contra, pese a que los partidos que promovían el rechazo (ERC y PP) sumaron más del 28% de votos en las últimas elecciones autonómicas. A pesar de la elevada abstención (50,58%, casi 10 puntos superior al referéndum del Estatuto de 1979), los socialistas destacaron la contundente victoria del sí.\nEl presidente de la Generalitat, Pasqual Maragall, compareció pasadas las diez de la noche y se mostró eufórico ante los medios de comunicación. El nuevo texto, dijo, da tales \"cotas de autogobierno\" que a partir de ahora a \"Cataluña se le ha acabado el victimismo\".\nMaragall invitó a los partidarios del no a sumarse al consenso para desarrollar el Estatuto.\nZapatero también se declaró satisfecho por los resultados y destacó que el sí de Cataluña significa un avance en el Estado de las Autonomías. Se trata de una de sus principales apuestas políticas, junto al proceso abierto para lograr el fin del terrorismo de ETA, y ayer la consideró aprobada. El ministro de Industria y primer secretario del PSC, José Montilla, celebró la \"clara y contundente victoria del sí\" y \"la formidable derrota del PP\".\nMontilla sostuvo que el grado de participación \"no deslegitima en absoluto el resultado\", y recordó que el Estatuto gallego (1980) fue votado sólo por el 28,36%.\nEl presidente del PP, Mariano Rajoy, hizo una lectura muy distinta de lo ocurrido, al opinar que los catalanes \"han rechazado el proyecto personal de Zapatero\", y destacar que dos de cada tres ciudadanos prefirieron no respaldar el nuevo texto.\nEl otro partido del no, ERC se mostró conciliador. Su presidente, Josep Lluís Carod, afirmó que acepta \"el veredicto del pueblo catalán\" y pidió que se ponga fin a la crispación introducida por el PP.\nLa abstención suele ser mayor en los referendos que en las elecciones generales, autonómicas o municipales, según destacaron los partidarios del sí. En la consulta sobre la Constitución, la participación fue del 59,4% en Cataluña, y en toda España, del 58,23%. Entonces, ningún partido utilizó la abstención para cuestionar la validez del referéndum.\nEl Estatuto catalán de 1979 fue aprobado por el 88,15% de los votantes con una participación del 59,30%. El Estatuto catalán de 2006 se ha aprobado tras una enconada campaña.\nEl último día, Maragall desafió a la Junta Electoral Central (JEC), con un discurso televisado animando a votar y ensalzando el Estatuto. La campaña también ha servido para abrir el debate sobre el futuro candidato socialista a la Generalitat ante las elecciones anticipadas. En el último mitin Montilla se postuló. Maragall se ha crecido durante la campaña, lo que no ha gustado nada al aparato montillista. Unos y otros no descartan que, finalmente, se presente a las elecciones un tándem integrado por Maragall y Montilla.\nReedición del tripartito\nEl presidente de CiU, Artur Mas, ha hecho una doble campaña, la del Estatuto y la suya propia paralas autonómicas. Y a Iniciativa Verds (ICV) le gustaría que se reeditase el tripartito, pero -a poder ser- sin Maragall, según su presidente, Joan Saura.\nEl PP hizo una campaña donde han salido toda clase de argumentos de los hasta 10 barones del partido que han viajado a Cataluña para contribuir al no. Su objetivo ha sido, en un buen número de ocasiones, atacar a Zapatero y al proceso para el fin de ETA. Los insultos y gritos, con algún intento de agresión, que sufrieron tanto Mariano Rajoy como el secretario del PP, Ángel Acebes, han enturbiado la campaña. Los líderes políticos catalanes condenaron esos ataques, al tiempo que la mayoría de esos dirigentes recordó la política agresiva del PP respecto a Cataluña en toda España, como la recogida de cuatro millones de firmas en contra del Estatuto.\nERC ha sembrado la confusión con sus cambios de voto en el Congreso y en el Senado. Los republicanos pasaron en muy poco tiempo del sí al sí crítico, la abstención, el voto nulo y el no.\nEl largo viaje del Estatuto llegó ayer a su fin, aunque en realidad es sólo el principio de otra etapa. En cinco días hábiles a partir de hoy las juntas electorales provinciales harán el escrutinio general. Otros cinco días más tarde, en el caso de que no se hayan interpuesto recursos, proclamarán los resultados, que serán provisionales hasta que la JEC los declare oficiales. Luego el Rey tendrá que sancionar y promulgar la nueva ley y ordenar su publicación en el BOE y en el Diario Oficial de la Generalitat. 20 días después de su publicación entrará en vigor. Si todo va según lo previsto, será a finales de julio.\nEl presidente de la Generalitat ha afirmado que su Gobierno empezará a trabajar inmediatamente en el desarrollo del Estatuto. CiU ha presentado una moción al Parlamento catalán para que éste obligue a Maragall a disolverlo. Es evidente que sólo el presidente tiene la potestad de hacerlo, pero la moción se debatirá el próximo jueves en el Parlamento. Todos los partidos, excepto el PSC, quieren que las elecciones sean en octubre.\nFe de errores\nEn la información \"Cataluña vota a favor del Estatuto...\", publicada ayer en España, se decía que Joan Saura había planteado reeditar el tripartito, pero sin Maragall.

A su término el secretario de organización del partido, José Blanco ha asegurado que los ganadores de la votación han sido “la democracia, la Constitución, el Estado de las autonomías, Cataluña y España” y que el único perdedor es “el PP y su estrategia de confrontación”.\nBlanco ha pedido al presidente del PP, Mariano Rajoy, que admita las reglas de juego después de que “hablara el Parlamento y la ciudadanía”y ha lanzado una pregunta a los dirigentes populares: “¿Están ustedes promoviendo que la gente no cumpla la ley?”. “Van de derrota en derrota” en una “huida hacia delante”, ha asegurado el secretario de organización del PSOE sobre la estrategia del PP.\nHoras antes, el primer secretario de los socialistas catalanes, José Montilla, ha acusado al PP de “tener la cara dura” de apropiarse de la abstención en el referéndum del Estatuto pese a que este partido pidió de forma activa el rechazo al texto. El Partido Popular y Esquerra Republicana habían hecho campaña en favor del no, mientras que el Partit dels Socialistes de Catalunya (PSC-PSOE), Convergència i Unió (CiU) e Iniciativa per Catalunya - Verds (ICV) pidieron el sí a la reforma.

Más o menos de igual forma se pronunció el líder del PP en Cataluña, Josep Piqué, que culpó del “fracaso” a Zapatero, al presidente de la Generalitat, Pasqual Maragall, y al líder de CiU, Artur Mas.\nUn proceso \"largo y complejo\"\nEsta mañana, Montilla ha asegurado, en referencia al PP, que “quienes patrimonializan el no son también quienes tienen la barra de patrimonializar a la gente que se quedó en casa”. En declaraciones al emisora Catalunya Radio, el líder de los socialistas catalanes y ministro de Industria recordó que Rajoy había pedido el rechazo al texto, y que “la gente no le ha hecho caso”. “Nadie se puede atribuir la abstención”, ha asegurado.\nPara explicar la baja participación, Montilla ha aludido al “largo” y “complejo” proceso de elaboración y aprobación del texto; a que “las encuestas decían que el sí ganaba de calle”, lo que pudo desincentivar a los votantes; y a que los ciudadanos “tenían dudas” porque ERC “había oscilado entre el sí y el no”. “ERC se equivocó, el resultado del referéndum avala esta afirmación, ya que donde se ha movilizado más el no es donde hay más electorado del PP”, ha señalado Montilla.", "url": "http://www.elpais.es/articulo/espana/Montilla/acusa/PP/tener/cara/dura/apropiarse/abstencion/referendum/elpporesp/20060619elpepunac_1/Tes/", "archive_url": "https://web.archive.org/web/20060701101508/http://www.elpais.es/articulo/espana/Montilla/acusa/PP/tener/cara/dura/apropiarse/abstencion/referendum/elpporesp/20060619elpepunac_1/Tes/" } ]

It also said at least 20 rebels were killed in separate aerial attacks.\nThe United States urged Turkey, a key regional ally, to limit its offensive to precise PKK targets and to bring the operation to a swift conclusion. Iraq's government called on Turkey to respect its sovereignty and to avoid any military action which would threaten security.\nThe European Union and the United Nations also urged restraint, fearing the offensive could jeopardize the most stable region in Iraq at a time when security is improving, and also rekindle tensions between Turks and ethnic Kurds.\nThe Turkish military said its troops had entered Iraq late on Thursday to destroy PKK camps and hunt rebels of the Kurdistan Workers Party (PKK), which has been battling for decades to create a Kurdish homeland in southeast Turkey.\n\"The operations inside Iraq will intensify tomorrow,\" said a Turkish military source, who declined to be named.\nTurkish television said between 3,000 and 10,000 soldiers had entered Iraq, but several Iraqi officials and a military source with U.S.-led coalition forces in Baghdad said only a few hundred troops were involved.

We need to work together to resolve it,\" Casey said. \"We are pleased that Turks have stressed that they will do everything possible to avoid acts that would harm civilians.\"\nRear Adm.

There were no reports of casualties.\nBorder tensions have been a source of diplomatic disagreement between the U,S. and its Iraqi and Turkish allies. U.S. and Iraqi authorities have been concerned that any large-scale operation by Turkey into Iraq to chase down Kurdish rebels could destabilize the region.\nAt the same time, the U.S. backs Turkey's efforts to battle the PKK, which both countries regard as a terrorist group and has been providing intelligence to the Turks.\n\"The United States continues to support Turkey's right to defend itself from the terrorist activities of the PKK and has encouraged Turkey to use all available means, to include diplomacy and close coordination with the Government of Iraq to ultimately resolve this issue,\" Smith said.

Er sprach von der bislang größten Einzelaktion gegen die Mafia: \"Dies ist einer der größten Schläge gegen die Mafia in der Geschichte des FBI, und zwar sowohl, was die Zahl der festgenommen Personen angeht als auch die Breite der vorgeworfenen Verbrechen.\"\nDen Mafiosi werden so ziemlich alle schweren Verbrechen vorgeworfen, die das Strafgesetzbuch auflistet: Erpressung, Kokainhandel, illegaler Waffenbesitz, Körperverletzung, Hehlerei, Brandstiftung, Schutzgelderpressung, Zinswucher, illegales Glücksspiel und natürlich Mord. Der Schlag richtete sich offenbar vor allem gegen die Gambino-Familie, aber auch gegen die Genoveses, Bonnanos, Luccheses und Colombos – alles mächtige Mafiagrößen in New York, New Jersey und Rhode Island.\nAnzeige\nDie Ermittlungen stützten sich nach Angaben des FBI auch auf Aussagen von Mafia-Aussteigern. Dies zeige, dass es sich bei dem vielbeschworenen Schweigegelöbnis der Mafia, der sogenannten Omerta, eher um eine Legende handle, sagte die stellvertretende Leiterin der New Yorker Polizei, Janice Fedarcyk.\nExemplarisch veröffentlichte die Staatsanwaltschaft den Fall von Joseph Watts, der ebenfalls verhaftet worden war. Weil er keine italienischen Wurzeln habe, stieg Watts nie bis ganz nach oben in der Cosa Nostra auf, er habe es aber bis zum Capo gebracht. Als solcher Unterführer habe ihn der damalige Chef der Gambino-Familie 1989 mit dem Mord an dem verhafteten Mafia-Mann Frederick Weiss beauftragt, weil der offenbar mit der Justiz zusammenarbeitete.\nWatts heuerte ein Mordteam an und kümmerte sich sogar um den Aushub eines Grabes, in dem das Opfer verscharrt werden sollte. Er wartete mit einer Waffe in einer Garage, doch Weiss kam nicht. Dafür wurde der mutmaßliche Überläufer am nächsten Tag von einem anderen Hit Team erschossen. Watts hat der Staatsanwaltschaft zufolge jetzt gestanden, an dem versuchten Mord beteiligt gewesen zu sein.\nDie Festgenommenen wurden zunächst auf ein Gefängnisschiff im Fort Hamilton vor der Küste New Yorks gebracht. Zu ihnen gehört auch der derzeitige Boss der Colombo-Familie, der im Bundesstaat Rhode Island lebt. Die übrigen der mutmaßlichen Gangster seien der Polizei in New York selbst und in angrenzenden Gebieten von Long Island sowie im Nachbarstaat New Jersey ins Netz gegangen.\nLesen Sie hier mehr aus dem Ressort Zeitgeschehen.", "url": "http://www.zeit.de/gesellschaft/zeitgeschehen/2011-01/usa-mafia-razzia", "archive_url": "https://web.archive.org/web/20110122060950/http://www.zeit.de/gesellschaft/zeitgeschehen/2011-01/usa-mafia-razzia" } ]
