Investigation Clears Border Police Officers Who Killed Downed Palestinian Stabber
The investigation into two Israel Border Police officers who shot dead a Palestinian man after he stabbed an Israeli civilian in a terror attack, though the assailant was already down on the ground, has been closed. The State Prosecutor’s Office on Thursday said that the Justice Ministry’s Police Investigations Department had concluded its investigation into the December 4 attack near Damascus Gate in the Old City of Jerusalem because the rules of engagement justified their actions. A video of the incident shows that the stabber, West Bank resident Muhammad Salima, 25, attempted to get up again before the officers fired the fatal shots. “An examination of all the circumstances found that this was an incident that lasted only a few seconds, in circumstances where there was a real and tangible danger to the lives of the officers and civilians in the area,” according to a statement issued by the prosecutor‘s office. In the aftermath of the attack, the two officers received support for their actions from Israeli Prime Minister Naftali Bennett; Public Security Minister Omer Barlev; Israel Police Commissioner Kobi Shabtai; and Border Police chief Amir Cohen. In 2016, former IDF soldier Elor Azaria killed a Palestinian terrorist who was on the ground and posed no threat. He was convicted of manslaughter.

April Snow Surprises Sofia
Citizens of Bulgaria's capital Sofia awoke on Wednesday morning to see snowfall outside their windows.
Unseasonably cold temperatures have gripped much of the country just days before the Easter holidays. In the higher areas, snow cleaning vehicles had to be dispatched overnight.
Around 6 AM, the snow intensified in Sofia, but later turned to rain. Temperatures are expected to remain between 3-8 degrees and most places in central and western Bulgaria will see rainfall. In altitudes above 1,300m snow can be expected.
The colder weather and showers will persist through to Saturday, according to meteorological predictions.

Tobacco Industry Merger
Where there’s smoke, there’s often fire — especially in a tobacco merger…
Why Big Tobacco keeps demolishing the FDA in federal court
Since 2009, the cigarette industry has won three major challenges to make their products more accessible to kids
In 2009, Congress passed landmark legislation directing the Food and Drug Administration to regulate tobacco products, aiming to cut the toll from the leading preventable cause of disease and death.
Three times since, however, cigarette and e-cigarette companies have filed successful legal challenges to thwart rules intended to make their products less appealing to consumers–and less accessible to kids.
The three cases, which, among other things, have blocked graphic cigarette warning labels and delayed regulation of e-cigarettes for at least a few years, were decided in favor of industry plaintiffs by the same federal judge,
Richard J. Leon of the U.S. District Court in Washington, D.C. Leon’s rulings have reflected concern about government overreach, and a tone of deep skepticism about the FDA’s legal positions “Please! This conclusion defies common sense,” he wrote, dismissing one of the agency’s arguments.
Given how cases are normally assigned, the fact that Leon was assigned all three is extraordinary—and extraordinarily good luck for the industry.

Early this afternoon, I walked the several blocks from my apartment to Tahrir Square. Each Friday, for the last few months, thousands have flooded the world’s most famous traffic circle in anticipation of Egypt’s first post-Mubarak presidential election. Today, the square was all but empty, save a few older men huddled under tents, reading the newspaper, and a lone television presenter filming a spot as the occasional car sped by. Some might put this down to election fatigue now that the first round of voting is at long last over. Others would no doubt take a less charitable view: Tahrir is empty, they’d say, because the revolution is dead.
Egypt woke up this morning to the not-entirely-shocking but nonetheless convulsing news that the top two vote-getters in the election appeared to be Mohamed Morsi, the flag-bearer of the Muslim Brotherhood, and Ahmed Shafik, the former commander of the Egyptian Air Force and Hosni Mubarak’s last prime minister. Until just a few weeks ago, pundits gave neither much of a chance. Both were late entrants into the race. The Brotherhood originally registered Morsi as its backup candidate to its first choice, the Deputy Supreme Guide of the 84-year-old revivalist Islamic organization, Khairat Al Shater, who was later disqualified from the race due to criminal convictions under Mubarak. Morsi, an uncharismatic Brotherhood insider, was derided as a “spare tire” and polled in the single digits in pre-election surveys.
Shafik not only embodied the derogatory feloul label attached to “remnants” of the former regime, but seemed to relish it. He vowed to save Egypt from the rise of political Islam using whatever means necessary. (The Brotherhood’s Freedom and Justice Party and the ultraconservative Salafists together won some 70 percent of the seats in the parliamentary elections that wrapped up earlier this year.) For months, it has been another feloul candidate, former Foreign Minister Amr Moussa, whom most have considered the frontrunner. But while Moussa downplayed his decades working under Mubarak and pledged to midwife a transition to full democracy, Shafik pledged to restore a government reminiscent, if not necessarily identical, to the one he once served. This morning, Shafik’s spokesman made it plain to the New York Times, “The revolution has ended,” he said.
In many ways, Morsi and Shafik’s respective surges arose symbiotically. Morsi, whose momentum in recent weeks owes largely to the Brotherhood’s unrivaled ground game and organizational prowess, tacked sharply rightward on religion, promising a faithful implementation of Sharia law and depicting himself as God’s chosen candidate. Shafik, in turn, seized on fears of an Islamist takeover; it’s no surprise that some of his strongest support came from Egypt’s large Christian minority. Combined with rival feloul Moussa’s extraordinary flameout (he looks to have won only about 10 percent of the vote), shockingly low turnout (around 50 percent), and a split in the liberal-secular vote between the moderate Islamist Abdel Moneim Aboul Fotouh and surprise third-place finisher, the Nasserite socialist Hamdeen Sabbahi, the election’s two most polarizing figures now look set to contest the runoff in mid-June.
There could yet be more drama in store. The official count is still taking place, including in the most populous areas of the country, and Sabbahi’s camp claims it will have the edge over Shafik when all is said and done. On Twitter, though, despair is already rampant among liberals and revolutionaries, apoplectic at the prospect of a either a hard-core Islamist or an unapologetic remnant of the old regime assuming the presidency. Lazy headline writers have for months been referring to Egypt’s “unfinished” revolution. If the current results hold, many will find a new adjective more appropriate: “lost.”

International Data Encryption Algorithm (IDEA) is a symmetric key encryption technique and uses 128-bit key over 64-bit plain text with eight and a half round. To enhance the technology in IDEA, a new approach is introduced in which we will establish two different keys for encryption and decryption respectively which was single key in IDEA. This will introduce more security in IDEA by making it an asymmetric key encryption algorithm.
|International Data Encryption Algorithm (IDEA), Asymmetric key encryption|
|As the use of internet is becoming widely accepted these days, it is a trend of transmitting data over the network. But, people have discovered ways to breach the security of the data which has to be sent over network. Providentially, there came into existence a method to make our data secured against the hacking and it is known as cryptography.|
|Cryptography is a method which is used to secure the data by converting it into such a format which can only be read by the recipient and not by the intruders.|
|In the cryptography, IDEA is one of the ciphers which encrypt the text into an unreadable format and makes it secured in order to send it over to internet|
|International Data Encryption Algorithm converts a 64-bit plain text into 64-bit cipher text using a single key of 128- bits both for encryption and decryption. For imparting more security to IDEA cipher, we will implement another cipher with IDEA i.e. RSA cipher. RSA cipher is an asymmetric key cipher which uses two different keys for encryption and decryption. This is named as E-IDEA.|
|plain text (T) acts as an input for the encryption process in E-IDEA. The first process of encryption of EIDEA is the IDEA Encryption block. So, this plain text (T) goes to IDEA encryption block. Here, the key used is ‘x’. The text from this block gets converted into cipher text, T1. This T1 is cipher text of IDEA encryption block and acts as input i.e. plain text for RSA encryption block. Since, RSA is an asymmetric key cipher, it uses two different keys. Hence, the key applied is ‘x+y’ where ‘x’ is the key from above block and ‘y’ is Public key in RSA block. Here in this block, T1 gets encrypted into final cipher text i.e. T2.|
|The whole encryption part of E-IDEA is described in the following flowchart.|
|In encryption phase, the plain text is to be encrypted and converted into cipher text using two ciphers, IDEA and RSA. Encryption by both ciphers is discussed in following phases. In order to achieve the advancements in the cipher, RSA is introduced in the IDEA cipher. This brings up two different phases of encryption:|
|PHASE I: We apply IDEA cipher and generate key and text. Let the key be ‘x’ and text be ‘x/2’. This phase lasts for 8 rounds (R1, R2, R3, R4, R5, R6, R7 and R8) and a last formation round (half round). Each full round uses different set of sub keys viz. R1, R2, R3 , R4, R5, R6, R7 and R8 uses 6 sub keys (Z1, Z2, Z3, Z4, Z5 and Z6) since these are full rounds. And the half round uses only four sub keys Z1, Z2, Z3 and Z4. This phase is same for all the IDEA ciphers. The plain text ‘T’ in this phase is converted into cipher text ‘T1’.|
|PHASE II: In this phase, we introduce the RSA cipher in IDEA cipher. The RSA algorithm involves the presence of another whole cipher which increases the steps of operation in addition to those of IDEA. As RSA is an asymmetric key cipher, it introduces the concept of two different keys, one for encryption (public key) and the other one for decryption (private key). This phase treats T1 as an input (plain text) and encrypts it into ‘T2’. T2 is the final encrypted text.|
|T= Plain text|
|T1= Cipher text after IDEA cipher and Plain text for RSA cipher.|
|T2= Final cipher text.|
|The cipher text (T2) of the encryption block of E-IDEA acts as an input (plain text) for the decryption process in EIDEA. Since, encryption with RSA is done at the end; decryption with RSA will take place before that of IDEA. So, the input goes to RSA decryption block. Here, the key used is ‘x+z’ where ‘x’ is the key from IDEA encryption block and ‘z’ is Private Key in RSA block. The text from this block gets converted into plain text, T1. This T1 is plain text of RSA decryption block and acts as input i.e. cipher text for IDEA decryption block. In IDEA block, the key applied is ‘x’ which is same to that of IDEA encryption block since it is symmetric key cipher. Here in this block, T1 gets decrypted into final plain text i.e. T. The whole decryption part of E-IDEA is described in the following flowchart.|
IV. RELATED ISSUES
|According to , the IDEA is designed into a stronger algorithm against differential cryptanalytic attacks after being revised.|
|According to , RSA is the most popular security products and cipher protocols which are being used today. It is one of the bases for secure communication in the Internet.|
|This new cipher does not have the concept of weak keys and since there are no classes of weak keys, security issues cannot be caused. Also, easy detection and recovery of the keys is not possible.|
|Since, two ciphers are involved in E-IDEA; this makes it a long procedure. Therefore, much time and efforts is needed to fully implement this new cipher.|
|-Sensitive financial and commercial data security|
|- E-mail via public networks|
|- Smart cards|
|- Transmission links via MODEM, Router or ATM link|
|- GSM technology|
VII. FUTURE SCOPE & CONCLUSION
|E-IDEA has united IDEA cipher with RSA cipher for making the keys strong hence undetectable and unrecoverable. But it makes it a heavy operation to be taken out as the whole operation gets divided into two. One operation is that which involves the IDEA cipher and another operation involves the RSA cipher. This division of operations makes it a lengthy procedure to be carried out which takes much of time and efforts. So, such an algorithm can be created which uses less time and fewer efforts.|
|Since, IDEA had weak key classes which hindered in the faultless security of the data; there was a need of such a cipher which does not have weak keys. E-IDEA made it possible to fade away the weak keys from the cipher hence increased the data security. It uses RSA algorithm in addition to the IDEA cipher making an enhancement in it. Now the keys cannot be detected easily. So, data recovery is not possible. The addition of RSA cipher has included the concept of two different keys each for encryption and decryption which was only one key in IDEA.|

It was great to catch up today with Pi @pjrt and Daveid at the UCLan MA Show. We loved hearing about their inspiration for this latest collection of work. We like all things connected to Pi.
We were also lucky enough to meet the artist Abi Townsend who had made some work about contemporary farming conditions governed by forces beyond their control, this ultimately led to conversations about the price of milk these days.
This Friday at our base at Canal Cottages in Rosegrove is a chance to chat with Diane from CarersLink. Its also the start of our transformation of the Gentlemens Wardrobes into a little exhibition space.

CHILLICOTHE, Ohio — Ohio Attorney General Mike DeWine said Thursday four Chillicothe residents who are under investigation by the newly formed Central Ohio Human Trafficking Task Force, have been indicted. Roger Rider and Richard Evans face charges of trafficking in persons, rape, kidnapping and promoting prostitution. Craig Tackett is charged with trafficking in persons, rape, kidnapping and promoting prostitution, while Mara Morrison faces charges of trafficking in persons, kidnapping and promoting prostitution.
“This is the first task force of its kind in Central Ohio,” Attorney General DeWine said. “My office created this unit because human trafficking is happening every day in this area, and we need to be proactive to fight it.”
Members of the task force began investigating the Chillicothe residents when a woman reported to authorities that the suspects brought her to Columbus under false pretenses and forced her to have sex with more than a dozen men over a period of several days.
DeWine said investigators believe there could be at least two more victims.
“These suspects placed advertisements on the Internet offering up the victim as a prostitute and collected money from the men who answered the ads,” DeWine said. “They forced the young woman to be a sex slave, and they will not get away with it.”
Franklin County Prosecutor Ron O’Brien’s office will prosecute the cases.
The Central Ohio Human Trafficking Task Force is part of the Attorney General’s Ohio Organized Crime Investigations Commission (OOCIC). The unit is primarily made up officers from the Columbus Police Department, along with officers from the Ohio Bureau of Criminal Investigation (BCI), the Powell Police Department, U.S. Customs and Immigration Enforcement (ICE), and the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI).
“The Columbus Division of Police is committed to investigating and stopping the trafficking of any human being,” Columbus Police Chief Kim Jacobs said. “Our participation in this task force is a sign of our deep desire to protect our citizens and to prevent this heinous crime from occurring in our community.”
“Every officer involved in this task force is a top notch investigator devoted to helping the people who are forced not only into the sex trade, but into the labor trade as well,” DeWine said. “We are pleased by the success investigators have had so far and expect more arrests in the future.”
Agents with BCI&I are also working with human trafficking task forces in northwest and northeast Ohio.
DeWine also established a Human Trafficking Commission to work to analyze, research and find solutions for the human trafficking problem. The commission’s research and analysis subcommittee plans to release recent study findings and suggest recommendations on how to prevent domestic sex trafficking next week.
Anyone with information on the whereabouts of Craig Tackett or Mara Marrison should contact either the Columbus Police Department at 614-645-4545 or BCI&I at 855-BCI-OHIO (855-224-6446).
Frank Lewis may be reached at 740-353-3101, ext. 232, or at firstname.lastname@example.org

To measure out your deck and determine your footings, you will need batterboards and mason’s string. A standard deck will need four footings parallel to the house, but they will need to be temporarily braced by 6 inch-by-6 inch posts.
Are two 2×6 stronger than a 2×8?
Kaiden;as Daniel said, the two 2×6’s will be slightly stronger than one 2×8. (I think by around 10%). However, whether or not they will work for your situation depends on the loading stipulation and deflection limits for your floor, which presumably is in your Code.
How big of a beam do I need to span 20 feet?
Re: 20 foot clearspan beam size Then your floor joists only need to span 8′ between the wall and the “beam” (or between the beams). In that case, you need something like a 12-16″ GLULAM or LVL to span the 20′ and can use simple 2×8-10 dimensional lumber 16″OC as floor joists.

Buy a large Siberian cat carrier, as our Siberian cat for sale can get quite large. It is okay if the carrier seems too large at first; the cat will get used to it.

Give the Siberian cat room to explore. Our Siberian cats for sale have a high energy level and like to roam. Most prefer to have access to the outdoors.

A second Siberian cat often makes the first cat feel less lonely, especially if they are littermates. Make sure the cats are spayed or neutered unless you want to mess with kittens; this is especially important if you have a male and female Siberian kitten together, but outdoor cats may also encounter cats of the opposite sex in your neighborhood How to keep your cat healthy Maintain your cat's coat.
Although Siberian cats have thick coats, grooming is easier than with most long-haired cats. Siberian cats' coats don't tend to mat too quickly, so grooming them once or twice a week is enough to keep them healthy. Brush gently with a soft, smooth brush. Siberians molt twice a year and shed their fur in large clumps. During this time, daily brushing is the easiest way to keep the coat from matting and tangling. Brushing reduces the likelihood of hairballs. Protect the cat from heat. Do not keep Siberian cats in temperatures above 33ºC (91ºF). They are adapted to cold climates, and they can overheat easily in their thick coats. Take the following precautions during summer months: Put ice in the cat's food or water. At the very least, use cold water instead of warm or room-temperature water. Take the cat to a professional groomer and have her shave away most of the fur. The fur will grow back by the winter, but it may make your cat much more comfortable through the summer months. Visit a veterinarian if your cat seems uncomfortable. You may notice it going to great lengths to keep cool, such as rubbing against the refrigerator or spending time in cold spaces. If the cat makes painful yowling noises, and it doesn't seem particularly hungry, it might be uncomfortable. Bathe the cat occasionally. Siberian cats have a water-resistant, triple-layered coat. Many of them enjoy water and may try to jump into the bath or shower.
Even if your cat doesn't like water, give him a bath whenever his coat gets dirty. Bathing can also reduce allergens if someone in the house is allergic to cats. If necessary, use a mild cat shampoo and conditioner made with oatmeal. Your Siberian cat has a fairly oily coat, which keeps the skin healthy and regulates the cat's temperature. Bathing too often can remove these protective oils. Because of the thick coat, it can take up to 45 minutes for your cat's fur to get completely wet. Check your cat's health weekly.
If you have a kitten, start early with these grooming routines so she can get used to them. If you have difficulty with these procedures, ask a veterinarian to show you how to do them: Trim the nails once a week or as needed. Use scissors to trim the nails. Check your cat's ears about once a week. If they appear dirty, clean them with a cotton swab moistened with a mild cat ear cleaner recommended by your veterinarian. If the ears are red or smell bad, take your cat to the veterinarian.
Brush your cat's teeth regularly with a veterinarian-recommended toothpaste to ensure good health and fresh breath. Siberian cats can pick up ticks or fleas quite easily. Check outdoor cats regularly and remove ticks and fleas if found. Schedule regular veterinary checkups. Siberian cats are prone to stomach problems, such as irritable bowel syndrome or lymphoma.
Visit the veterinarian regularly to keep an eye on their stomach. Siberians are also prone to at least one hereditary health problem: hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. Siberians to be bred should be screened for HCM, and cats identified with HCM should be removed from breeding programs. Do not purchase kittens whose parents have not been tested for this disease. Feed cats high-quality food. Foods can cause higher or lower levels of allergens. High-quality food can also prevent many health problems in cats. Feed only the amounts recommended by your veterinarian, keeping treat consumption in mind. Keeping a Siberian cat at the proper weight is one of the easiest ways to protect its overall health. If your cat is overweight, dieting may be necessary.

For years Phnom Penh’s urban poor have been encroaching on one of the city’s last remaining reservoirs. But with flooding, especially of the nearby open sewer that collects most of the city’s waste water, expected to worsen, City Hall has vowed to step in
Ominous red numbers mark the shacks squatters have fashioned from bits of wood and corrugated metal in Chamkarmon’s Psar Doeung Thkov village. One’s branded 91, the other 92, next to it, 96. The numbers confuse the residents.
“The authorities came and sprayed this number on my house, but they didn’t tell us anything. Not one word,” said Tol Senghean, a 57-year-old woman with a canine tooth as golden as her hairband. Her house was tagged with the number 91.
Over the years, the community has grown, but the closest street is still a five-minute walk away. Like most of Cambodia’s urban poor, Senghean shares her single-room home with a number of relatives: her husband, two grown daughters, their husbands and children – a total of eight people in less than 20 square metres.
But if it’s up to City Hall, they won’t be here much longer.
Their community is slated for eviction, according to officials, who said that was the reason the houses had been numbered.
“We need to collect the figure of how many families have illegally grabbed the land ... And then we will talk about compensation for them to leave,” said City Hall spokesman Long Dimanche, who declined to elaborate or provide a timeframe.
Prum Samkhan, the governor of Chamkarmon district, said that the families would be evicted “as soon as possible”.
Urban NGO Sahmakum Teang Tnaut (STT), which works on land issues in Cambodia, has met with community representatives and estimates that at least 400 families will be affected.
“It will be a very big problem if they do that and evict the community without proper consultation or fair compensation,” STT’s executive director Ee Sarom said.
City Hall refused to comment on possible compensation, but said that the community should have never settled there in the first place.
And that, in fact, their land shouldn’t even be land.
“It [the eviction] is a project of the Phnom Penh municipality to restore the lake ... If we don’t restore Boeung Trabek lake, it will cause severe flooding in the near future,” Samkhan said.
It’s hard to see when walking around the densely built shacks, but just behind the homes of Senghean and her neighbors lies the roughly 10-hectare Boeung Trabek.
Ten years ago the lake would have stretched to areas where Senghean’s bulky TV set now stands, and where her granddaughter plays around her feet. Back then about 1.5 million people lived in the city. That number has now reached more than 2 million.
Between 2000 and 2009, more than 100,000 families had to leave their homes to make room for real estate projects, according to STT.
One of them was Senghean and her family. “We bought this [land] seven years ago. When I moved, it was already land, but people here know that it used to be the lake,” she said.
Flooding has become so frequent that some real estate agents have started to tag their properties with “no flooding” promises. Even the rich and powerful aren’t spared: the country’s Information Minister, Khieu Kanharith, recently took to Facebook to lament heavy inundation in front of his residential home.
The filling-in of the lake will make matters worse, according to Uchida Togo, project formulation adviser with Japanese development agency JICA. His organisation has worked closely with the municipality to improve the drainage and sewage system.
They’ve helped build an underground water reservoir to temporarily ease flooding, installed water pumps and donated “sludge suckers” to the city so people won’t have to clean canals with their bare hands.
“But there are a lot of problems that still have to be dealt with,” Uchida said. Most of the pipes, which collect rain and waste water, are remnants of France’s colonial rule. As they were intended for a population of a few hundred thousand only, the rapid growth of the city has stretched them to their limits.
In this precarious situation, the vanishing of Boeung Trabek is particularly worrying, he said.
“This lake is really important. It’s the same as an underground reservoir: it absorbs the impact [of rain]. For that reason, it’s important to keep this lake, but we can see ... the northern part is already filled in,” he said.
Up to 20 per cent of Boeung Trabek, JICA estimates, has already disappeared under sand and cement, and if the encroaching continues, nearby areas could flood over a metre high.
What’s worse is that the flooding won’t consist simply of rainwater that doesn’t drain quickly enough. The Trabek canal, which runs adjacent to Boeung Trabek lake, is also expected to overflow more frequently, turning the floodwater into sludge.
The canal is already notorious around town. Commonly, expats refer to it as “s—t canal” or the “Tonle crap”, a play on words in reference to the Tonle Sap, one of Cambodia’s largest rivers.
The open sewer runs through the middle of the city and is impossible to ignore. Underground canals reaching from the Wat Phnom area across the city to Sihanouk Boulevard accumulate the waste of hundreds of thousands of people into this single, pungent, five metre-wide canal.
Nonetheless, people live along it, going about their daily business. Children ride their bikes, housewives dry fish on the streets and men slouch on chairs leaned against the railing, the bubbling, black sludge just centimetres away. On a little bridge over the canal, Keo Heng, 55, sells fried noodles and soft drinks.
She doesn’t like living here.
Her husband is plagued by dizziness and sudden vomiting without any signs of an illness, Heng said.
“It’s from the water. We can’t prove it, but I think it makes us sick,” Heng said, adding that, generally, people here get sick more frequently, but the reasons are rarely diagnosed.
When it rains heavily and rubbish gets clogged under the bridges, residents dive in to pull it out. If they aren’t fast enough, the water rises quickly, until the black, faecal-matter-filled sludge engulfs homes. Residents here said it takes weeks for the sludge to evaporate from their kitchens and bedrooms.
“Human excreta is always dangerous. This is a very unfortunate situation if there’s untreated human waste in a body of water like this, especially if it floods,” Steven Iddings, the World Health Organization’s team leader for environmental health, said.
The areas where people cook, eat and sleep, and where toddlers crawl, have been flooded before, a situation that can cause diseases ranging from severe diarrhoea to hepatitis.
“The hygiene is nearly impossible in a situation like that – that’s the tragedy of the floods that contain human waste,” Iddings said.
City Hall and Chamkarmon governor Prum Samkhan both said that it was time to restore the lake.
“You know well that Phnom Penh is always badly flooded whenever there is heavy rain. So the Phnom Penh municipality plans to restore the lake as soon as possible,” Samkhan said.
But Urban NGO STT compared the situation to the forceful evictions of other poor communities.
“This will be the next Boeung Kak or Borei Keila,” STT’s Sarom said, referring to years-long disputes that have resulted in numerous protests and arrests.
In this case, however, the land dispute isn’t about benefiting the already rich and powerful, but the whole of the city, Togo said.
“It’s a real problem that Phnom Penh has to deal with. But it’s extremely difficult because, legally, they [City Hall] have this land for preservation, but people are encroaching. And that’s the reality.”
Meanwhile, Senghean and her neighbours feel left in the dark. If she gets evicted, she said she won’t put up a fight.
“For the money we could afford to spend, you don’t get a land title,” she said, adding that she paid $6,000, and was hoping that she would receive the same amount as compensation.
But even so, it won’t be enough to buy new accommodation in the city, and with the 20,000 riel the family of eight makes selling eggs each day, renting won’t be an option either.
“If they come, I think we have to go. But I don’t know where,” she said.

following in the steps of the Royal Family? I cannot believe how stupid you are, they're probably following in the own family tradition.
You do realize that Catholics believe in baptizing their children as infants. Most are baptized within weeks or days of being born if the parents and godparents took the classes during the pregnancy.
Thank God their child has a chance to go to Heaven, unlike all those DIRTY FILTHY NASTY SATANIC children of Hollywood JEWS.
" follow in the footsteps of the royal family"; what a bunch of absolute nonsense.
Oh please; that entire EXTREMELY CRIMINAL ROYAL BRITISH FAMILY are direct descendant's of Satan; they all die & burn in Hell for eternity. They are 100% PURE EVIL!
With this child's baptism…the EXTREMELY EVIL & DIRTY FILTHY NASTY Hollywood Jews will blacklist him and do everything to jeopardize his BLESSING FROM GOD…
Barbara Streisand's son Jason Gould was never baptized…and he's OOZING HIV & AIDS VIRUS PARTICLES everywhere he goes. Barbara's son is basically a walking TOXIC WASTE DUMP, that she keeps alive with her MILLIONS & MILLIONS in subsidies to Jason Gould's Witch Doctors.
Josh Duhamel SAVED his son from the HORRIFYING & EXTREMELY EVIL JEWISH MAFIA controlling Hollywood…THE CURSE CAN'T TOUCH HIS SON!
Fergie, who sold her soul to Satan a long time ago…DOES NOT LOOK HAPPY her son is protected from the EXTREMELY EVIL & DIRTY FILTHY NASTY JEWS of Hollywood; did she already sacrifice her son's soul before this Baptism?
He's turning into a beautiful dad….and Fergie definitely smitten too. Looking good.

Updated: Jan 11
I've noticed that when astrologers are talking about themselves to other astrologers, they resort to using the astrological symbols of their charts to explain themselves. There is an assumption that the listener will automatically understand what is being said but, given the polyvalent and multidimensional nature of archetypes, as well as the unique way that they are configured in an individual chart, this may not be so! In addition, using the symbols can have a distancing effect both for the speaker and the listener. Let me give an example. I was speaking with a friend who was sharing a difficult experience. When I asked her if she could say more about it, she began using her chart symbols to explain herself. I asked her to use regular language rather than the symbols of her chart. She paused, took a deep breath, and proceeded to do so. When she was finished, she exclaimed, "Wow! I've never really explained that so well before. I've never really thought it through that well before!" It was a revelation for her and a much clearer understanding for me. There are times when the symbolic language is very useful. It's especially so when listening to a client with their chart before us; it allows us to readily see which archetypes are at work in their story. But, when sharing with each other as astrologers, to use the symbols to communicate can short circuit the process of true sharing and understanding.

As with any snow season, some days will be much worse than others, but the first events afford new crew members the time to learn new routes and equipment functions. Less experienced operators are matched with seasoned snow removal staff for on-the-job shadowing. The same team that clears the snow also provides meter reading, sign and signal repairs, and water and sewer maintenance during the rest of the year. After storm events, the crews must also clean, inspect, and repair equipment. Think that sounds pretty cool? The Public Works Department invites residents to be matched with a snow crew team member for a 'Ride-Along'!

Popular singer, Wendy Shay has broken her silence on the events that led to her decision to walk out of an interview on Accra Fm, and why she did not push the presenter, Nana Romeo to show his supposed evidence.
The internet was in a frenzy a few days ago when Wendy Shay was forced to walk out of an interview at Accra Fm because of the host’s line of questioning which she deemed as unprofessional.
Nana Romeo who interviewed the singer claimed he had evidence in his possession which proves that the singer was having an affair with her CEO, Bullet, a claim the singer vehemently denies.
Appearing on Hitz Fm this morning for an interview with Andy Dosty, Wendy was asked why she did not push Nana Romeo to show his supposed evidence.
She responded that she did not deem it necessary since she knows there is nothing like that in existence. According to her, she was forced to walk out of the interview not because of the particular question, but because of the manner and attitude which was put up by the host.

In her opening statement, Jenna Ellis, the Trump campaign’s senior legal advisor, made the case for the Arizona State Legislature, and for legislatures across the country, to reclaim their power to assign their states’ electoral college votes themselves, and use this power to, in her terms, prevent millions of Americans from being disenfranchised by the widespread voter fraud the campaign is working to prove.
“After you hear the facts and the evidence today, and we will give you this document,” said Ellis, “We are going to ask you, as legislators, to reclaim that authority, and to make sure that the people of Arizona, and indeed the people of the United States of America as whole, are not disenfranchised by corruption.”
Ellis repeatedly referenced both the statements of the Founding Fathers as well as established case law going back to the 19th century that adds legal grounding to the campaign’s claim.
One case, McPherson v. Blacker from 1892, Ellis says clearly establishes the state’s right to overturn fraudulent results and assign electors themselves.
“If you look at page 35, this is an 1892 case, and it says, ‘Nonetheless the Constitutional power to decide to on the method to choose electors remains exclusively with state legislatures,'” quoted Ellis.
Quoting Alexander Hamilton in the Federalist Papers, Ellis added that he believed “this safeguard, vesting that authority exclusively with State Legislatures, is the safeguard to make sure that corruption does not win.”
“It is the responsibility, the duty, and the obligation, not just the choice, but the actual duty and obligation of the legislature, to step in and to make sure that you don’t certify false results.”
“You are the last step,” Ellis added, receiving applause, “To make sure that this election is not corrupted. Again, we aren’t asking you to step in and overturn an election. We are asking you to step in and make sure that the corruption that occurred here does not stand.”


The Israeli Air Force (IAF) will soon acquire the “Hermes 900” Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) manufactured by Elbit Systems Ltd.
IsraelDefense learned from a senior IAF officer that the IAF is co-partner in the development of the model, which will be assigned to the squadron currently operating the “Hermes 450”, another Elbit Systems product.
Built as a medium-altitude long-endurance aircraft, many of the Hermes 900’s features are twice the size of those in the older model. With its 15- meter wingspan, carrying capacity of 350 kilograms (maximum), and cruising altitude of 30,000 feet, Hermes 900 can remain aloft twice as long – over forty hours - as the earlier model.
Experts believe that its long-endurance capability and satellite communication systems will enable it to operate in ranges of thousands of kilometers, thus reaching countries as distant as Iran.
Hermes 900 carries equipment under its belly and wings. Cameras and other visual devices can be quickly replaced for daytime or nighttime missions.
The air force is testing the UAVs in the designated squadrons. The “UAV Intelligence and Space Department” is responsible for the technical aspects of operating and maintaining an allweather aircraft on a 24-hour a day basis.
Elbit Systems has announced that three “Hermes 900s” will be delivered to the IDF.
“In the future, one third of the IAF’s aircraft will be UAVs”, a senior air force officer told IsraelDefense.

The four men and two women who serve as the foundation’s athletes raise money and awareness for causes by performing their sports such as climbing mountains, surfing, and slacklining. More Than Just Mountains, a branch of the foundation, is well on their way to completing their goal of climbing the Seven Summits to raise $1 million and awareness for Cystic Fibrosis. The MTJM team has recently climbed their fourth summit, Denali, in Alaska over the course of just ten days. Here’s a recap video of their climb: 10 Days on Denali from Red Tide Productions on Vimeo. We at ENO are incredibly proud to sponsor such a great foundation, and wish them luck on their remaining three climbs! Keep changing the world!

Federal judge won’t dismiss domestic-spying challenge
Editor’s note: This lawsuit has been consolidated with 16 other cases and is now part of In Re National Security Agency Telecommunications Records Litigation, No. 1791. The combined cases have been transferred to U.S. District Judge Vaughn Walker.
SAN FRANCISCO — A federal judge yesterday refused to dismiss a lawsuit challenging the Bush administration’s domestic-spying program, rejecting government claims that allowing the case to go forward could expose state secrets and jeopardize the war on terror.
U.S. District Judge Vaughn Walker said the warrantless eavesdropping has been so widely reported that there appears to be no danger of spilling secrets.
Dozens of lawsuits alleging that telecommunications companies and the government are illegally intercepting Americans’ communications without warrants have been filed. This is the first time a judge has ruled on the government’s claim of a “state-secrets privilege.”
“It might appear that none of the subject matter in this litigation could be considered a secret given that the alleged surveillance programs have been so widely reported in the media,” Walker said in his ruling in Hepting v. AT&T.
Walker also wrote that he did not see how allowing the lawsuit to continue could threaten national security.
“The compromise between liberty and security remains a difficult one,” Walker said. “But dismissing this case at the outset would sacrifice liberty for no apparent enhancement of security.”
And in declining to dismiss AT&T Inc. from the lawsuit, filed by the Electronic Frontier Foundation, Walker suggested the case had some merit. “AT&T cannot seriously contend that a reasonable entity in its position could have believed that the alleged domestic dragnet was legal,” he wrote.
A Justice Department spokesman said the administration was reviewing the ruling before making its next step.
The lawsuit challenges President Bush’s assertion that he can use his wartime powers to eavesdrop on Americans without a warrant. It accuses AT&T of illegally making communications on its networks available to the National Security Agency without warrants. By doing so, the lawsuit states, AT&T violated the plaintiffs’ “rights to speak and receive speech anonymously and associate privately under the First Amendment.”
AT&T, based in San Antonio, said in a statement that it values customers’ privacy, but also recognizes its “obligation to assist law enforcement.”
The government intervened in the case, telling Walker that Bush’s surveillance program, adopted after the Sept. 11 terror attacks, is “a secret of the highest order.”
The government argued that divulging any information about any alleged collusion between AT&T and the government to eavesdrop on Americans could subject AT&T employees and facilities to attack and would enable terrorists “to communicate more securely.”
The state-secrets defense, first recognized by the U.S. Supreme Court in a McCarthy-era lawsuit, has been increasingly and successfully invoked by federal lawyers seeking to shield the government from court scrutiny.
The high court has upheld the legal tactic as recently as January, when it rejected an appeal from a former covert CIA officer who accused the agency of racial discrimination.
The president confirmed in December that the NSA has been conducting warrantless surveillance of calls and e-mails thought to involve al-Qaida terrorists if at least one of the parties to the communication is outside the United States.
The administration contends the program is legal and necessary, but has been mum on whether purely domestic calls and electronic communications are being monitored, as the lawsuit alleges.
A pending legislative compromise worked out by the White House and Sen. Arlen Specter, R-Pa., the Senate Judiciary Committee chairman, would allow the president to submit the spy program to the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court for a one-time test of its constitutionality. That legislation, which has not been voted on, would remove the EFF case and others from the federal civil courts.
The EFF plans on asking Walker soon to rule on whether the president possesses wartime powers to authorize warrantless eavesdropping in the United States. The EFF alleges that San Antonio-based AT&T, which neither confirms nor denies the allegations, practices “wholesale surveillance” of its customers.
