Iranian military police involved in group rape

7 hours ago

Iran's Military Police

Tehran: A married woman last week accused some members of Iranian military police of participation in a group raping of her on November 4, 2009. Iran's Parliament today is said to secretly investigate these claims. A Human Rights Watch report last week also documented at least 3 cases of rape against political dissidents in Iranian prisons.

In the past, Iran's Parliament has been reluctant or unable to investigate criminal or financial matters related to the increasingly powerful Military Police and Revolutionary Guard Corp (RGC).

Hyper local site

MyPage/Hyper local site. Hyperlocal sites, also referred to as local-local or microsites, focus on a very narrow geographical area-- a suburb, a small town or a perhaps a rural county-- that is mot currently well-served by existing media outlets. We have already seen similar efforts by print newspapers in publishing separate "Neighbors" editions for different areas and by local television news in doing "round-ups" of stories from suburbs surrounding the main metro area, but online these efforts can be taken even further.

Converting DRM Files

How Do You Convert DRM Files?

With electronic music files becoming more popular, and piracy so common, it’s not really surprising that music companies have been worried about their profit margins. One of the solutions they’ve come up with is DRM protection on digital files. DRM refers to digital rights management, a generic way to refer to all the access control technology used by copyright holders and publishers to keep unauthorized people from using a file. These methods are used to impose limits on their digital content. Many companies, including Microsoft, Sony, the BBC, and others, are making use of this technology.

DIY walnut-shell advent calendar

clipper's remarks: To make it reusable from year to year, try the walnut treasure chest technique.

Clip Source: www.mnn.com

Advent calendars have been a holiday tradition for centuries, and over that time countless versions have come and gone. While the more common variety is the rectangular shape with small, paper windows for chocolates, there are more creative renditions to consider, such as the walnut shell idea presented here. Besides the high level of creativity this one requires (teeny, tiny gifts only!), the best part of this Advent calendar is that it's green; you're not buying anything new. (Well, you might have to make a trip to the store for the walnuts — organic, of course.) Scrounge around the house long enough and you'll find almost everything you need to get started and have fun with this holiday project. (Text: Ashley Chase/MNN)

The Anti-Counterfeiting Trade Agreement (ACTA) is an attempt to update international law to deal with online intellectual-property violations. The negotiations concluded on Friday and the next round are scheduled for Mexico in January.

One of the proposals, according to leaks, involve a three-strikes system: three infringements and your Internet service provider (ISP) has to yank the cord from the IP address, not just the lone user. A few illegal downloads, iPhone hackings or movie uploads and an entire family could be without Internet for 12 months.

That is what Lawrence Lessig, the Harvard University law professor and renowned open-access advocate, told a theater of higher ed technologists Thursday at the 2009 Educause Conference here. In his talk, Lessig described how digital and Web technology has exploded the conditions under which copyright law had been written.

“If copyright law, at its core, regulates something called ‘copies,’ then in the analog world… many uses of culture were copyright-free,” he explained. “They didn’t trigger copyright law, because no copy was made. But in the digital world, very few uses are copyright-free because in the digital world … all uses produce a copy.”

The paradigm for copyright law enforcement emerged out of this "analog world" as a way of ensuring authors were remunerated for their contributions to culture, thereby creating an incentive to make further contributions and drive the progress on human art and discovery forward, he said.

Heel Pain And Plantar Fasciitis

About Dr. Geller

The most common cause of pain in the heel is plantar fasciitis. Pain on the bottom of the heel that is worse with the first steps out of bed in the morning is the major characteristic of this condition. People most likely to get this problem are on their feet a lot especially on hard surfaces and have tight calf muscles. If you run or walk for exercise, dance, or your job requires you to stand or walk on hard surfaces you are at risk.

United States Pushing International, Mandatory Copyright Laws. Guilty Until Proven Innocent!

clipper's remarks: "* * Mandatory prohibitions on breaking DRM, even if doing so for a lawful purpose (e.g., to make a work available to disabled people; for archival preservation; because you own the copyrighted work that is locked up with DRM)"

Now that is a worriying development. Let see the Teabaggers chew on this. Nah, it's a pro-corporate treaty which enforces American will on the REST of the world, so it doesn't set off the NWO alarm bells.

Via Boing Boing, some shocking news:

The internet chapter of the Anti-Counterfeiting Trade Agreement, a secret copyright treaty whose text Obama's administration refused to disclose due to "national security" concerns, has leaked. It's bad. It says:

* * That ISPs have to cut off the Internet access of accused copyright infringers or face liability. This means that your entire family could be denied to the internet -- and hence to civic participation, health information, education, communications, and their means of earning a living -- if one member is accused of copyright infringement, without access to a trial or counsel.

* * That the whole world must adopt US-style "notice-and-takedown" rules that require ISPs to remove any material that is accused -- again, without evidence or trial -- of infringing copyright. This has proved a disaster in the US and other countries, where it provides an easy means of censoring material, just by accusing it of infringing copyright.

Draft of secret copyright treaty should give you chills

As the latest round of talks on the Anti-Counterfeiting Trade Agreement go on in secret (for unspecified national security reasons), some information on the U.S.-written draft of the Internet chapter has begun to leak out, and, as feared, the heavy hand of the entertainment industry is readily apparent and the implications for Internet service providers, consumers and innovation in general are grim. Being rendered near speechless, I’ll let others summarize:

Secret copyright treaty leaks. It's bad. Very bad.

* That ISPs have to proactively police copyright on user-contributed material. This means that it will be impossible to run a service like Flickr or YouTube or Blogger, since hiring enough lawyers to ensure that the mountain of material uploaded every second isn't infringing will exceed any hope of profitability.

* That ISPs have to cut off the Internet access of accused copyright infringers or face liability. This means that your entire family could be denied to the internet -- and hence to civic participation, health information, education, communications, and their means of earning a living -- if one member is accused of copyright infringement, without access to a trial or counsel.

Is There A Need For An Investment Property Management?

As a real estate investor, you need to make several decisions critical in your real estate business. If you are one of the landlords that run an investment rental property, one critical question to answer is whether you need an investment property management. People who will manage your properties or what they called property managers, can be a big help for real estate investors who run and own many properties as they can do all the tedious tasks for you and rid yourself of the many headaches associated with tenant and property management.
