Errant monkeys draw the ire of Delhi court

Posted on by Admin

Thursday, January 19, 2006

The Delhi High Court expressed its displeasure to the civic authorities on their continued failure to resolve the problem of marauding monkeys in the court premises. The court was in session when the public interest litigation filed by a Supreme Court lawyer was brought to its attention.

The petitioner Mr.Nirmal Chopra argued the case and explained how the simians showed up during work hours and attacked people and snatched food from them. The rhesus monkeys have also been blamed for damaging furniture belonging to the lawyers and courtroom fixtures such as electrical fittings. According to Mr.Chopra India‘s Wildlife Act of 1972 empowers civic authorities to kill or hunt animals when they endanger human life. He said that the lawyers from the Tis Hazari court had requested the state government and the municipality to tackle the situation but no action had resulted.

The lawyer for the civic authority was quoted by the Press Trust of India as saying that catching monkeys was no longer its responsibility. The court was informed that a monkey catcher hired by the municipality had required 72 stitches after being mauled during an operation. After this incident the work had to be halted because other monkey catchers refused to take up the job.

The court gave the civic authority four more weeks to catch the monkeys that are disrupting work at the Tis Hazari courts. “If you cannot perform your statutory duty, then close down your institution” the court is reported to have told the counsel.

Delhi is known to suffer from trouble brought on by monkeys. The animals are reported to invade homes, schools and government offices in the city. Scores of animals have moved in as the city expands into surrounding forests. In an effort to control the problem, the Delhi administration captured about 500 monkeys and took them to the outskirts of the city last year.

It Is Possible To Purchase Car Insurance Without A Driver’s License

It Is Possible To Purchase Car Insurance Without A Driver’s License

Posted on by Admin

By Jim Bassett

Unfortunately, for those people who are looking for car insurance without a driver’s license the options open to them will be limited because there are many companies that do not offer this facility. This is because most car insurance companies need to see that you have a driving license as well as a social security number before they will be willing to offer you a car insurance plan. The car insurance companies need to look at this information in order to determine the rates that they will need to charge individual applicants.

However, many people need to buy car insurance without a driver’s license and for a number of reasons as well. For example, a person may be the owner of a vehicle that they are not able to drive on their own and so will need to purchase car insurance even despite not owning a driver’s license. They may not be able to drive because of medical reasons or for any other kind of reason.

Regardless of the reason why they cannot or do not drive it is necessary that they purchase car insurance for their vehicle. These people may be depending on a friend or family member to drive them to a doctor’s clinic or to buy groceries or for other activities that involve driving a car. Even parents that do not themselves drive might purchase a car for their teenage children who have only recently obtained a driving license. In such cases too it becomes necessary to purchase car insurance despite not owning a driver’s license.

The best way to get the required car insurance is by getting in touch with different car insurance companies and in fact going online to contact these companies offers a more convenient option and one that is not so time consuming as having to personally visit the car insurance company’s offices. Online services make it possible to deal with any car insurance company no matter where in the country they may be located.

The good news is that even when shopping for car insurance without owning a driver’s license you will be quoted the same rates as are applicable for those who own a driver’s license. Furthermore, you will also need to provide the insurer with the same information as is required from those holding driving licenses.

The only real difference is that when you are going to submit your online information to the insurer you will simply need to enter nil when asked to provide number of years for which you have held a license.

In Texas, it is possible to purchase car insurance without a driver’s license for those who are illegally living in the state and even otherwise most Texan insurance agencies do not ask that you furnish driving license proof prior to offering you a car insurance plan.

With many Americans not owning driver’s licenses there is certainly a demand for buying car insurance despite not possessing a driver’s license. Though it is illegal to drive a vehicle without possessing a driver’s license there is nothing illegal in buying car insurance without holding a driver’s license; so, be sure to buy insurance coverage for your vehicle prior to allowing anyone else to drive it.

International participants showcase different industry cultures at 2008 Taipei Game Show

Friday, January 25, 2008

B2B Trade Area of Taipei Game Show, criticized by trade buyers last year, but accompanied with 2008 Taiwan Digital Content Forum, moved to the second floor at Taipei World Trade Center for world-wide participants with a better exchange atmosphere this year.

Not only local OBMs (Softstar Entertainment, Soft-World International Corp., International Games System Corp., …, etc.) but also companies from New Zealand, Canada, Japan, Hong Kong, and South Korea showcased different specialists with multiple styles. Especially on South Korea, participated members from G? Trade Show (Game Show & Trade, All-Round, aka Gstar) showcased gaming industry of South Korea and the G? upcoming at this November with brochures.

In the 2-days Digital Content Forum, world-class experts not only shared industry experiences, members from Taiwan Gaming Industry Association also discussed and forecasted marketing models for gaming industry. With participations from governmental, industrial, and academical executives world-wide, this forum helps them gained precious experiences of digital content industry from several countries.

According to the Taipei Computer Association, the show and forum organizer, the digital content industry in Taiwan was apparently grown up recent years as Minister of Economic Affairs of the Republic of China Steve Ruey-long Chen said at Opening Ceremony yesterday. Without R&Ds from cyber-gaming, and basic conceptions from policies and copyright issues, this (digital content) industry will be fallen down in Taiwan. If this industry wanted to be grown up in sustainability, gaming OBMs in Taiwan should independently produce different and unique games and change market style to market brands and games to the world.

Murder, rape of Albert Namatjira’s great-granddaughter makes belated news

Posted on by Admin

Monday, April 3, 2006

Sometime during the night of Friday, January 28, 15 year-old Jenissa Ryan was assaulted and raped in Alice Springs. She was discovered near the entrance of Centralian Senior Secondary College around 10:30 a.m., and a college employee called an ambulance. The attack was not reported in the mainstream national media until this week, when it became known that the victim was the great-granddaughter of famous indigenous artist Albert Namatjira.

In an article published in Saturdays Sydney Morning Herald, Russell Skelton said that the fact that she was an Aborigine, and the location of her bashing, contributed to her death. “If Jenissa had been white, she might be alive today, though the scars of her brutal bashing and rape could never be erased. If she had been bashed and left for dead almost anywhere else, assistance would have been immediate and the outrage strident.” He also said that if her connection to Namatjira had been known, Jenissa’s death would have been a “national scandal.”

Police believe that she was attacked by a number of youths her own age while walking home. She continued to walk home, but collapsed unconscious near the entrance to the college. Here, according to police, she was found by three teenage boys, who dragged her out of view and raped her.

Jenissa was still alive when found. Skelton considered it likely that people had seen her during the morning but done nothing. “That means a number of residents of middle-class Grevillea Drive probably noticed. The white T-shirt and striped tracksuit pants were hard to miss,” he said.

She was taken to Alice Springs Hospital, and then flown to Adelaide’s Women and Children’s Hospital.

On February 13 Northern Territory Police charged a 16 year-old male and a 15 year-old female with assaulting Jenissa Ryan. Three other males, aged 14, 15, and 16, have been charged with having unlawful sexual intercourse with Jenissa Ryan. Police expressed gratitude for the assistance they had received from members of the public.

Father Asaeli Raass said that both indigenous and non-indigenous people were in denial about the incident. “Yes, it’s a painful thing, but people are sweeping it under the carpet when they should be confronting the big issues Jenissa’s death raises,” he said. He also said that the initial wave of publicity “never travelled outside Alice Springs.”

Jenissa’s mother, Carmel Ryan, said that her daughter wanted to be a painter, like her great-grandfather. “She wanted to be like him, to make a creative contribution we would all be proud of. Tragically that can never be, but I feel nothing but sorrow for the parents of the children involved in this terrible event,” she said.

Korean leaders Moon and Kim meet days after NK-US summit cancellation

Posted on by Admin

Monday, May 28, 2018

On Saturday, South Korean President Moon Jae-in and North Korean Leader Kim Jong Un held an unannounced meeting in the Joint Security Area straddling the Korean Demilitarized Zone, two days after United States President Donald Trump withdrew from the scheduled June 12 high-level meeting in Singapore.

Moon initiated the meeting after hearing Trump had withdrawn from the proposed summit with Kim. Trump’s decision to withdraw came on Friday after increased tensions over scheduled military exercises, North Korean official Choe Son Hui referring to US Vice President Mike Pence a “political dummy” and threatened nuclear action. Since then, both Pyongyang and the White House have issued statements indicating they are willing to have a meeting of some kind regardless.

Adam Mount of the Federation of American Scientists’ Defense Posture Project referred to Trump’s response as a “temper tantrum” and applauded Moon’s “bold but risky” actions: “When Kim Jong-un was allowed to split the negotiations into separate tracks with Trump and Moon, he gained leverage over both,” Mount told the public via Tweet. “… Trump says ‘everybody plays games.’ Moon Jae-in is not playing a game: he must keep his people safe from war. Each of Trump’s whims shakes the walls of the Blue House.” The Blue House is South Korea’s presidential residence.

The meeting lasted roughly two hours. It was the second major meeting between Moon and Kim in as many months. In April, they met to discuss denuclearization of the Korean Peninsula and plans for a formal peace treaty to replace the cease-fire that ended the Korean War on July 27, 1953, a measure that would require involving the US and China.

Although the White House stated their intent on withdrawing from the summit, North Korea’s state-run news agency reported Friday the two leaders are still scheduled for further “high-level talks”. North Korea explosively destroyed buildings and tunnels at the Punggye-ri Nuclear Test Site. The North Koreans invited international media observers to the demolitions, who later issued skeptical reports regarding the full extent of the demolition, according to NPR.

What S An Artist To Do In Order To Survive In The Music Retail Industry?

What S An Artist To Do In Order To Survive In The Music Retail Industry?

What s an Artist to Do in Order to Survive in the Music Retail Industry?

by

Jaine Kaif

Music downloads, piracy, file sharing, and the dwindling economy are killing the music retail business faster than the speed of light. Music downloads are going up, album sales are going down and this is a very bad equation for the artists and for the music industry in general. Musicians do need money to feed their tummies and to feed their music. This has been a very big challenge to the artists and record label companies worldwide.

So what s an artist to do in order to survive in the music retail industry?

The first thing that you should do is try to be different from the others. It is clich but it is the ultimate rule when it comes to grabbing the attention of consumers. If the other albums are not selling, maybe they re not doing something that catches the consumer s fancy and maybe it s because they re doing what millions of artists are doing. Don t follow what their trend and try to be unique instead.

[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ROtBbOcdFxo[/youtube]

You can do this by coming up with a very creative packaging. Try to think out of the box and stay away from overused concepts. But you should also bear in mind not to be over-the-top and extremely elaborate with your design. Designs like these are costly and could sometimes look desperate and cheap if not executed properly. The best thing to do is be different with your concept. Make sure your concept is solid, well though out, and witty if necessary. There are plenty of ways to do this. You can use another material instead of the usual jewel case, you can include freebies and many others.

You can also reinvent the distribution business by selling physical products. Some popular bands are wise enough to know that they can never get enough money from music alone. So they sell nonmusical collectible products for fans like lunch boxes, snow globes, t-shirts, and many others. With the popularity of facebook, multiply, and twitter, selling products is a lot easier and it doesn t have to cost a dime. The best thing is that, you do not have to produce the actual product before you can sell them. All you need is some pretty good designs and you start uploading them to these sites. You can let visitors vote for good designs then mass-produce them if you have a good number of buyers.

Another good idea is by doing what Domino Records did to Max Tundra s 2008 album. You can purchase his music by buying the limited edition Kosher Chicken soup. That s right, music and chicken soup in one pack. The can has Tundra s face smiling and handing out a soup and comes with an MP3 download code. Now isn t that awesome! That s one major leap to the music retail industry. Of course, do not copy what he did exactly. There are lots of products other than chicken soup. You can sell shirts with codes, toys with codes, pillows with codes, mushroom soup with codes your options are limitless.

The point is, in order for you and your music to survive, do not sell music simply as what it is—our new aim now is to give the consumers something else, something that they cannot easily download over the internet, something that they would find valuable and worth purchasing.

There are lots of ways to do this.

Think.

Wikinews interviews a Restore the Fourth organizer

Posted on by Admin

Wednesday, July 3, 2013

A grassroots movement known as Restore the Fourth, dedicated to the protection of the 4th Amendment to the US Constitution, are to hold protests countrywide on July 4. The planned protests come in the wake of information about NSA surveillance leaked last month, notably the PRISM surveillance program and the collection of Verizon phone records. Wikinews interviewed Jett, a national organizer from this recently created movement.

((Wikinews)) First of all, could you explain what Restore the Fourth is all about?

Jett: At its core, RestoreTheFourth is about protecting citizens’ constitutional rights. Specifically, we’re dedicated to bringing awareness and action to the expanding overreach and elimination of the 4th Amendment to the US Constitution.

((WN)) What is your role at Restore the Fourth?

Jett: My job at RestoreTheFourth could be summarized as ‘project coordinator’. Every person who wants to help can help in a tremendous way. I simply make sure that their skills get used in a way that would be most beneficial to the movement: web development, public relations, etc. I also field questions from the press and promote knowledge of our cause.

((WN)) What are your plans for direct action, outreach, etc.?

Jett: Our press release includes a list of ‘demands’ for what we want to see in order to restore our privacy rights, including reform of the PATRIOT Act and increased accountability for public officials. In the very short term, these protests and demonstrations bring awareness to the issue, something that’s really important in enacting reform. In the long term, however, we expect to create a legal organization dedicated to restoring these rights inherent to every American. By partnering with various other organizations that share our moral values, we can further these goals.
On July 4, we will have over 100 protests in all 50 states, showing that the citizens of America are truly serious about protecting their rights.

((WN)) By what means do you hope to achieve such change?

Jett: This movement started only a few weeks ago, and since then we’ve experienced exponential growth and progress. Since the movement is still very young, plans diverge in the long term on what we hope to achieve. Personally, I’d like to see a combination of legislative and litigative action (something like what the ACLU does), and others want to see further plans of action. With organizations such as the BORDC, stopwatching.us and the EFF behind us, I feel that we can achieve all of this and much more.
HAVE YOUR SAY
What do you think is the right balance between surveillance and privacy?
Add or view comments

((WN)) Is the movement US-only or will it extend to other jurisdictions as well? Do you think it would be fair for the US to spy on non-citizens?

Jett: I believe that rights are inherent to all humans, not only United States citizens. In the long term I’d certainly like to see people of all nations protected from the slow elimination of privacy that we’re all experiencing.
He’s [Edward Snowden] being treated as a ‘martyr’ of sorts. It seems to distract from what he truly believed in.

((WN)) What do you think about Edward Snowden’s whistleblowing?

Jett: I think that too much attention is being given to his personality instead of what he fought for. He’s being treated as a ‘martyr’ of sorts. It seems to distract from what he truly believed in — transparency for the government and inherent privacy for all Americans.

((WN)) What do you think about his future, given the legal grey zone in which he currently is?

Jett: Hard to say. He may be captured by any number of agencies, or he may live a free man. Whatever happens, he has the eyes of millions of people on him, all of whom will yell very loudly if anything occurs.

((WN)) Thank you very much for your time.

Jett: Thanks for the opportunity.

Emaar Properties claims Burj Dubai as world’s tallest building

Posted on by Admin

Sunday, July 22, 2007

United Arab Emirates (UAE) developer Emaar Properties has claimed that their Burj Dubai commercial and residential tower, currently under construction, has become the world’s tallest building, reaching a height of 512.1 metres (or 1,680 feet) and 141 storeys.

The current official record holder, Taipei 101 of Taiwan, has a height of 508 metres and 101 storeys, and will retain the “tallest building” title for some time to come. The Council on Tall Buildings and Urban Habitat sets the criteria for achieving height records for buildings, and will not evaluate the Burj Dubai until construction is complete in late 2008. Although final height details have been kept secret by the developer, the Burj Dubai is expected to reach nearly 700 metres in height, with approximately 160 storeys.

The current record holder for the world’s tallest free-standing structure is the CN Tower in Toronto, Canada. It has a height of 553 metres. The Burj Dubai, therefore, would claim both records when it is completed.

Once the Burj Dubai is completed, it will have required 330,000 cubic metres of concrete, 39,000 tonnes of steel and 142,000 square metres of glass, according to Emaar Properties. The building will have 56 lifts (elevators) that can move at a rate of speed of 1.75 to 10 metres per second.

Dubai is undergoing a construction boom currently with the Burj Dubai as the planned centrepiece of a $US20 billion project, which will eventually realize some 30,000 apartments and boast the world’s largest shopping mall.

There have been criticisms of the working conditions for construction workers in the UAE. A majority of the estimated 500,000 construction workers in the UAE are foreign workers from India, Pakistan and Bangladesh.

In a 2006 report on the UAE’s treatment of migrant workers, entitled Building Towers, Cheating Workers, Human Rights Watch documented abuses in UAE such as, “extremely low wages, several years of indebtedness to recruitment agencies for fees that UAE law says only employers should pay, the withholding of employees’ passports, and hazardous working conditions that result in apparently high rates of death and injury.”

In October of last year, Human Rights Watch delivered specific recommendations to the UAE government for improvement of working conditions. The UAE government acted swiftly on the report and put in place several improvements, which were applauded by Human Rights Watch.

However, the salaries of migrant construction workers remain in the range from $106 to $250 per month, while the national average wage is over $2,000 per month. Trade unions remain illegal in the UAE.
