User talk:RichardF

Category:Comedy
Hello, can you please weigh in at the Admin action alerts page, at the heading: Admin_action_alerts, on your thoughts about specifically why a "Comedy" category on Wikinews would be helpful and useful? Thanks, Wilhelm 05:45, 10 January 2008 (UTC).

 * Oh-key-D'ho-key, Wilhelm. RichardF 03:39, 11 January 2008 (UTC)
 * Feel like providing any further comment in that section, or have you said your piece? Wilhelm 22:28, 13 January 2008 (UTC).
 * I have now. I think I've reached my quota of nay-sayers for one day. RichardF 22:48, 13 January 2008 (UTC)

I've applied the category to a selection of these articles - but not all. I moved the discussion from Admin alerts to the category talk page and flagged it. I think we need to iron out a degree of consensus over what is and isn't comedy in a news setting. --Brian McNeil / talk 10:29, 14 January 2008 (UTC)
 * Absotively! ;-) RichardF 12:11, 14 January 2008 (UTC)

 * Can you create the Wikinews subpage for the Comedy category, since you seem to have a better idea about the coding that should go into the DPL stuff for it? Wilhelm 22:00, 14 January 2008 (UTC).

 * Okay. I used the new-improved code added by Bawolff at the bot page to start. When I included "notcategory=Wackynews" it only kicked out an explicitly approved article, so I commented it out, for now anyway. See Category:Comedy/Wikipedia and w:Portal:Comedy/News/Wikinews. You can decide how you want to add the list to the portal. Happy editing! :-)RichardF 02:37, 15 January 2008 (UTC)

Do not be discouraged
There are always "overly conservative" elements on WP, do not let them discourage you from promoting interwiki cooperation.

For any of the sister projects - such as wikinews - to thrive then they must get directed traffic from Wikipedia. The latter project has some quite conservative contributors who have in the past suggested that all sister projects be closed (c.f. River's board run). Personally I think Wikipedia has reached a mass where it needs to allow participants to branch out into sister projects - just to get the link on a portal. It ties in with the "do we want Wikinews to be a credible source" debate and offers WP contributors the chance to do some work over here that - while obsolete in a couple weeks time - becomes part of the history surrounding an event or person.

In summary - don't give up easily. --Brian McNeil / talk 14:46, 13 January 2008 (UTC)

 * Thanks, Brian. I appreciate your encouragement and support! As a charter member of the Userbox migration with about a gazillion related userpage edits, I'm not totally unfamiliar with WP wikier-than-thou attitudes. ;-) That's why I can see this particular obits edit war needs "backup" if the bot is going to survive there. If it's just me vs. the self-appointed hit man, it's not going to happen.  For now, I'd rather spend my time on this particular bot project spreading seeds, and let those more in the know here pick up on specific WP resistance issues when they appear.  Of course, I'll do what I can to smooth things over first, but I won't be able to overcome any vigilantes on my own.  If the support for a particular use over there come from over here, I'm sure things will work themselves out in the long run. Thanks again! :-) RichardF 16:45, 13 January 2008 (UTC)

subdivisions
Hi. Your recent edits are creating links to portals for subdivisons/territories that we do not yet have. Whether or not you intend to create these portals, I would discourage it, since we can't even maintain the portals that we already have. Cheers, --SVTCobra 02:32, 25 January 2008 (UTC)
 * I just copied the links on the existing footers. I don't like red links either, so I'll delete them and let someone else revert. :-) RichardF 02:35, 25 January 2008 (UTC)

Query
Care to specify an email in your preferences? Cirt 17:22, 29 January 2008 (UTC)

 * I'm in a bit of a catch-22. It wants to confirm my e-mail, but my e-mail keeps deleting it as spam. It's a goofy spam blocker I've never been able to get to behave properly. If you know the confirmation e-mail address, I can add it to my address book so I can get the confirmation!!!! >-;o) RichardF 18:13, 29 January 2008 (UTC)
 * Eh, no worries. Cirt 18:22, 29 January 2008 (UTC)
 * Okay, then just sign up for Change.org, track me down, and ask to be my friend! :-) RichardF 19:31, 29 January 2008 (UTC)
 * Signed up, couldn't find you. Cirt 19:37, 29 January 2008 (UTC)

Okay, here's a clue, jeesh! "Richard F" ;-) RichardF 20:21, 29 January 2008 (UTC)
 * By the way. Wikimedia wikis send the confirm email from wiki@wikimedia.org . Bawolff ☺☻ 23:49, 29 January 2008 (UTC)
 * Thanks! Now, my personal e-mail is so busted it won't even start! >;-o) RichardF 00:28, 30 January 2008 (UTC)
 * Message sent. :)  Cirt 23:52, 29 January 2008 (UTC)

Wikinews:Wikinews Chronicle/2007-1/Editor

Editors note: A New Newspaper For A New Year
From Thunderhead on 00:01, 29 December 2007 (UTC)

Wikinews' mission statement calls for Wikinews to "present up-to-date, relevant, newsworthy, and entertaining content without bias". Wikinews does that. It also calls for Wikinews to be a competition against large news sources like CNN and the Associated Press. We do that. So why the new Wikinews newspaper?

This newspaper will focus more on Wikinews / Wikimedia events, and be more of a competition for the Wikipedia Signpost than CNN or the AP. The Signpost currently dominates the Wikimedia news service, even more so than official Wikimedia sources, such as the official Wikimedia website. Wikinews aims to be one of the best news sources, and it is our goal to dessimate information quickly. Wikinews intends to be the leader in all news services, including that of Wikimedia.

So, to the Signpost, don't think of us as a major competitor. Think of us as a challenge. Personally, I love the Signpost. I use it quite often, and it's very resourceful. But in the last few days, with the recent debate among Wikipedia's inclusion of news content, I think Wikinews has the right to create a Wikimedia-based newsletter. So good luck, and we wish the best. But expect some tough competition coming up. Expect our best.

Thunderhead Editor-in-Chief

South African prosecutors charge ANC leader Jacob Zuma with corruption

December 29, 2007

Corruption-related charges have been brought against Jacob Zuma, the newly-elected leader of the African National Congress (ANC), according to his lawyer. A trial is scheduled to begin on August 14, 2008.

The charges stem from an arms deal with a French company, which is alleged to have involved bribes and fraud. Zuma's financial adviser at the time, Schabir Shaik, was convicted in 2005 of attempting to solicit a bribe of US$72,500 per year from the arms company on Zuma's behalf and was sentenced to 15 years in prison. Zuma was fired as deputy president in 2005 by South African President Thabo Mbeki due to the scandal.

Two-term ANC leader Mbeki recently lost an ANC leadership contest to Jacob Zuma, who garnered about 60 percent of delegate votes in his win.

Zuma had been charged with corruption in 2005, but the case was dismissed on procedural grounds. Michael Hulley, Zuma's defence lawyer, indicated that they will strongly contest the new charges in court. Hulley also suggested that the South African government's National Prosecuting Authority (NPA) and its anti-organised crime division known as The Scorpions, have carried out a smear campaign against Zuma.

"These charges will be vigorously defended, in the context of the belief that the Scorpions (NPA) have acted wrongly and with improper motive calculated to discredit Mr. Zuma and ensure that he play no leadership role in the political future of our country," said Michael Hulley in a statement.

Given that the ANC has been the governing party in South Africa since the end of apartheid in 1994, it is likely that Jacob Zuma could become the next president after general elections in 2009. Zuma has said, however, that he would resign if he was found guilty by the courts.

Wikinews nominates 5 administrators for de-adminship due to inactivity
From Thunderhead on 00:20, 29 December 2007 (UTC)

Wikinews administrator Adambro recently listed 5 administrators for de-adminship due to inactivity on the administrators page, which explains the position, and allows nominations for adminship, and de-adminship.

This is viewed by some as a test of the inactive policy, which was created earlier this year to remove the administrative rights of those who were inactive within a certain amount of days.

The five users nominated include The bellman, DouglasGreen, CGorman, Ronline, and Karen, all of whom seem to have left Wikinews. DouglasGreen, for example, has not performed any administrative actions since he recieved the rights in May of 2005.

The last contribution that The bellman made was in 2006 on a project page. His last mainspace edit was on the same day. The last contribution that DouglasGreen made was in early 2005. The last contribution made by CGorman was in early 2006. The last contribution made by Ronline was in early 2006, and the last contribution made by Karen was in early 2006.

If all were de-admined, the number of administrators would be effectivley lowered to 49.

Wikimedia Bureaucracy: A Look At Wikimedia Policies (Part One)
From Thunderhead on 00:32, 29 December 2007 (UTC)

Note that this article is part of a series, please continue reading the Wikinews Chronicle for the remaining articles.

This week, the Wikinews Chronicle begins a series of looking at, and analyzing existing Wikimedia policies. Our focus this week is on the Wikimedia Foundation Board of Trustees Conflict of Interest Policy. This pertains to Wikimedia Board members, and thier votes on official resolutions.

Reading a Wikimedia resolution, you will see votes formated in a way like this: (5/1/2). The first number pertains to the number of users who supported the resolution. The second number is the number of users who opposed the resolution. The third number is the number of users who abstained from voting. Abstination from voting is used when a Board member has a personal reason to vote. If the vote would affect this user personally in any way, then the Board member is prohibbited from voting on it.

These pledges are officially accessable on the Wikimedia Foundation's Board website. The Board website is most likely used to vote on resolutions and discuss private matters, but it is inaccessbale to anyone except Board members. The website can be found here.

Your account will be renamed
Hello,

The developer team at Wikimedia is making some changes to how accounts work, as part of our on-going efforts to provide new and better tools for our users like cross-wiki notifications. These changes will mean you have the same account name everywhere. This will let us give you new features that will help you edit and discuss better, and allow more flexible user permissions for tools. One of the side-effects of this is that user accounts will now have to be unique across all 900 Wikimedia wikis. See the announcement for more information.

Unfortunately, your account clashes with another account also called Ytterix. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Ytterix~enwikinews that only you will have. If you like it, you don't have to do anything. If you do not like it, you can pick out a different name.

Your account will still work as before, and you will be credited for all your edits made so far, but you will have to use the new account name when you log in.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

Yours, Keegan Peterzell Community Liaison, Wikimedia Foundation 23:40, 17 March 2015 (UTC)

Moldovan government proposes awareness-raising strategy on EU integration

December 31, 2007

This week the government of Moldova approved an awareness-raising strategy on Moldova's integration into the European Union.

The strategy was proposed to the Government by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and European Integration; the Ministry has argued that Moldova's citizens must be educated about the impact of the forthcoming European integration.

The draft strategy document states that Moldova does not currently have any organised system for distributing information about the European Union to its populace, and that the Government has failed to perform any targeting of information to specific demographic groups. Taking into consideration the priority placed on EU integration by the current government of Moldova, the strategy document suggests methods to improve the situation and proposes a mechanism to enable the Moldovan public to participate actively in the European integration process. It is intended that an integrated system for providing information on EU integration will provided by the Government as a result of this draft.

The new information provisions will include such projects relating to EU – Moldovan cooperation such as information centers, a free-of-charge phone line, a website, information bulletins, improvement of information held in public libraries, etc. The strategy also proposes the instruction of journalists, press officers, and functionaries working in the local public administration on the topic of EU integration.

Public tender will be invited to select the businesses that will supply key components of these projects, as the government lacks the resources needed to fully finance the implementation of the strategy from the current budget. The strategy was planned with the support of the United Nations Development Program (UNDP) and the Eurasia Foundation.

Talk:Wall of Siberian tiger enclosure at San Francisco Zoo is too short

i don't like this headline
The headline of this article belongs on fox news, not wikinews. Leave that kind of reporting to the hacks at the networks. They admitted that the wall was shorter than had been previously stated, but went out of their way not to say it was "too short"

Diagram
I know it is not to scale, but if the moat is 12 feet deep, then people should be nearly half as tall as it is deep. Right now the people look 2 feet tall. --SVTCobra 09:42, 29 December 2007 (UTC)

There is no definitive measurement for the height of the fence or of the space between the top of moat and bottom of fence (horizontal space) so effect is incomplete information on the enclosure. Every article and TV spot give different info. Can we get it corrected here?? [Sobie 1/11/09]

Australian David Hicks is released from Yatala Labour Prison

December 29, 2007

Australian David Hicks was released Saturday from Yatala Labour Prison in Adelaide, South Australia.

Hicks, who until May 2007 had been held for five years at the U.S. Guantanamo Bay detention camp in Cuba, was serving out his remaining sentence in an Australian jail. At a U.S. war crimes tribunal, Hicks pleaded guilty to providing material support to a listed terrorist organisation and was sentenced to seven years in prison. As part of the plea agreement, all but nine months of the sentence was suspended and in May of 2007, Hicks was transferred to Yatala.

A contentious part of his sentence was a ban placed on Hicks to prevent him from speaking with the media for a period of one year from the time he pleaded guilty, which was in March, 2007. On his release Saturday, Hicks indicated that he intended to comply with the suppression order.

"It's my intention to honour this agreement as I don't want to do anything that might result in my return there," said Hicks in a written statement read by his lawyer, David McLeod. "So for now, I will limit what I have to say - I will say more at a later time."

A small group of supporters waited outside of Yatala and cheered as his car drove away. In his statement, Hicks had thanked his supporters for "the huge debt of gratitude that I owe the Australian public for getting me home." He added, "I will not forget or let you down."

At his trial, Hicks admitted he attended training camps in Afghanistan, conducted surveillance of the U.S. Embassy in Kabul and revealed that he had met Osama bin Laden, leader of Al-Qaeda. He had participated in fighting against the U.S. and its allies in Afghanistan in late 2001, and was caught while trying to flee the area. On his release from prison Saturday, Hicks was driven to an undisclosed location in Adelaide. His lawyer said that Hicks fears for the safety of himself and his family. "David is concerned about the safety of his family from people who hold views he was purported to share," said David McLeod. "There are also a number of far-right nationalist groups in Australia who have spoken out about David."

Terry Hicks, David's father, said his son was pleased to be free. "He's on a high, he seems alright but I suppose in the quiet times everything will come back."

"It's now up to him," said Terry Hicks. "He now has got to get on with his life."

Comments:Wall of Siberian tiger enclosure at San Francisco Zoo is too short

This image is totally NOT to scale... unless you expect me to believe that the human behind the fence are 2-3 feet tall.
 * No one said it was supposed to be to scale. But we made it with what we had and the skils we know. If anyone can make something better, please do :) DragonFire1024 (Talk to the Dragon) 18:12, 29 December 2007 (UTC)
 * Also, it is supposed to be an example/reference as to how the enclosure is laid out. DragonFire1024 (Talk to the Dragon) 18:13, 29 December 2007 (UTC)

Notes on the diagram describe the moat as deepest at its corners, 13 feet, whereas the main article describes the moat as deepest at the centre and the corners being shallower at 12 feet. Also, the dashed arrow in the diagram is in the wrong place, it should be lower down to indicate the width of the moat, perhaps. It serves no function other than to confuse where it is at present. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 81.158.97.213 (talk) 23:47, 29 December 2007 (UTC)

Tiger SF Zoo
The director of the zoo is an idiot. He keeps being reported making contradictory or meaningless statements and fails to take responsibility for the problem or provide adequate assurance of future safety.

He should be replaced immediately, even no one is better than an incompetent. He's a loose cannon. -Xrose vision 23:36, 2 January 2008 (UTC)

Zoo is totally responsible for the Tiger Mauling. Kids hurt not to be blamed.
Since the wall was too short and under the 18 feet specified, the Courts do not have any reason to now be searching for the status of the people who were hurt and 1 boy killed, nor what they were doing to the tiger, and even less, to look for contents of their cel phones and their car. Zoos must be 100% safe and all enclosures approved by tha AZA and OSH before they place the wild animals inside to operate safely.

Whatever the condition or the attitude of the people attending Zoos, and disregarding if they were disturbing or not tiget Tatiana, the wild animals must never be able to get out of their cages, and hurt people. The full responsibility falls in the Zoo designers, the one who approved the Construction of the Enclosure, those who approved putting the animals inside, and the Safety organization in Zoos who must always check that the minimum safety standards have been met, before placing wild animals inside.

Do not continue to search for any guilt whatsoever of the Zoo visitors, the 3 kids who were hurt. They have no blame whatsoever, and must be compensated for damages. The 2 injured boys, their families, and relatives of the deceased one, must be immediately and fully compensated psychologically and finantially by the Zoo, as they had no guilt whatsoever in this incident, no matter they might have been disturbing the animals. "Wild Animals must never ....ever get out of their enclosures".

Sinerian Tiger Attack
All three boys had drugs and alcohol in their systems. They are,/ or were, young mischievious boys. With all of the other evidence; there's no doubt in my mind that the old saying," Boys will be boys, applies here. There was early on, a report that sling shots were on the premises where the boys were. This makes perfect sense to me for a young drugged and partly drunk or drinking person, to have used on this tiger. They were too young to be helping or working at this facility with these dangerous animals.

Age appropriate men or women are definitely essential around the more dangerous animals. Obviously this has been proven now!

More caution to the ages and drinks of the people in or around the grounds needs to be given more attention in the future.

The tiger knew exactly who or whom was 'sling shoting him', and took action. I feel badly that the animal was killed. These gorgeous animals are extint or getting to where my grandchildren may not get to see them even in zoos many years on..... It's a shame.

People can be so insensitive toward other species and it is a terrible thing. For God's sake people can be very vicious to other humans even; so of course; animals are a boy's mischievous thing for them. Stupid!! Just a terrible shame all around! Ofcourse no matter What; some people will continue trying to blame the facility! But! It never happened prior. I really feel this animal was tormented!! —Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.30.160.75 (talk) 12:03, 22 January 2008 (UTC)

Discraceful
they had to put a perfectly healthy and normal behaving tiger down because of a PATHETIC mistake the Zoo made. the tiger should have been caught and tracquillised and then put back into her enclosure. these animals are already limited and to kill one dur to a mistake by us is discusting. the zoo should have been fined or even closed until the enclosure was put right!!! —Preceding unsigned comment added by 212.139.90.129 (talk) 17:41, 24 June 2008 (UTC)

Scottish footballer Phil O'Donnell collapses during game and dies

December 29, 2007

Scottish football player Phil O'Donnell has died today after collapsing during a game in which his team Motherwell F.C., of which he was captain, were playing Dundee United in a Scottish Premier League match.

O'Donnell collapsed as his substitution for Marc Fitzpatrick was being arranged. He received treatment for around five minutes before being stretchered off and transferred to a waiting ambulance. David Clarkson, O'Donnell's nephew, was also playing at the time and had scored twice but was taken off due to being visibly distressed by O'Donnel's collapse.

Medics from both teams believed he had suffered a seizure. Attempts were made in the ambulance to revive him, but these failed and he was pronounced dead at 17:18 GMT, having been taken to Wishaw General Hospital.

Born on March 25, 1972 O'Donnell made his debut for Motherwell in 1990, and scored the following year in the final of the Scottish Cup, which Motherwell defeated Dundee United 4-3 in. In 1993 he earned his only international cap for Scotland as a substitute in a World Cup qualification match against Switzerland.

The following year he was bought by Celtic for £1.75 million ($3.5 million). He stayed with them for five years, after which he was transferred to Sheffield Wednesday. A high number of injuries caused Sheffield Wednesday to release him after four years, and the next year, 2004, then Motherwell manager Terry Butcher awarded him an 18-month contract. In 2006 he was appointed captain, and in April the following year, upon the expiration of his original contract, signed a new one as a player-coach.

Motherwell chairman Bill Dickie said "Unfortunately I can confirm very, very sad news that Phil O'Donnell has lost his life. We don't know what it was, but there will be a post-mortem. This is a tragic happening and that's all I can say."

Motherwell owner John Boyle told the press "Everyone at Motherwell is shocked to the core, and we are sure that everyone involved in Scottish football will feel the same. Phil was not only an inspirational player for Motherwell and club captain, but was an inspirational person. All of us at Motherwell are thinking of his wife Eileen and their four children."

Mark McGhee, manager of the team, said "I don't want to say anything more than how devastated everyone at the club is for his wife and his young children. That's what we are all feeling tonight, nothing else matters. Obviously from the club's point of view, we'll gather round to give his family as much support as they need."

In a press conference given at the hospital, Motherwell chief executive Ian Stillie said "The management, directors, players and fans are all stunned and having great difficulty in comprehending what has happened over the last few hours. At this stage we do not have all the facts surrounding the tragic death of Phil O'Donnell. We have been in contact with Phil's wife Eileen and his family and they have given us their blessing to speak to the media tonight. Phil collapsed during the second half of the game today. He was standing alone at the time. He was immediately attended to by Motherwell's club doctor and assisted by Dundee United's club doctor. He was transferred almost immediately to an awaiting ambulance and taken to Wishaw General. It is believed Phil suffered some form of seizure and was pronounced dead at 1718."

Gordon Smith, Scottish Football Association chief executive, told reporters "This is absolutely devastating news. Phil was not just a wonderful footballer, he was a great human being. My thoughts are with his family at this tragic time." Meanwhile, Celtic chief executive Peter Lawwell said "When the news came through, everyone at the club was obviously shocked. Our thoughts are with his family to whom we offer extreme condolences for a tragic loss of a young life. Everyone at Celtic Park will mourn him."

Musharraf orders strong action against rioters in Pakistan

December 29, 2007

Pakistan President Pervez Musharraf has ordered security forces to take firm action against rioters following the assassination of opposition leader Benazir Bhutto. The violence has left at least 44 people dead and dozens injured. Mr. Musharraf insisted the measures were to protect people. VOA's Ayaz Gul reports from Islamabad that a bitter dispute has also erupted over how the 54-year-old politician died and who was behind her assassination.

Thursday's assassination of Ms. Bhutto has plunged the Pakistani nation into a situation that many perceive as a crisis, with violent protests across the country. Officials say the violence has also caused tens of millions of dollars in damages. Most of the deaths have occurred in southern Sindh province, which is Ms. Bhutto's political stronghold.

The worsening security situation prompted President Musharraf on Saturday to order his security chiefs to deal firmly with violent protesters.

Ms. Bhutto was killed when an unknown attacker fired shots at her and then blew himself up as she was leaving an election rally in Rawalpindi on Thursday.

Pakistani officials say that Ms. Bhutto's death occurred when the force of the suicide blast crashed her head against a lever on the sunroof of her vehicle. An official investigation is under way, but leaders of Ms. Bhutto's party have rejected the official account of her death as "ridiculous."

Ms. Bhutto's senior advisor, Sherry Rehman, says she helped wash the slain politician's body for burial. She alleges the government is trying to cover-up its failure to protect Ms. Bhutto, who was campaigning for January 8 elections.

"It is very clear, it is running on all the Pakistan TV channels, the footage of an assassin who took clear aim at her with his gun and fired the shot that went through the back of her head and came out the other," she said. "I have seen the bullet wound myself. I was part of the bathing ritual party and she bled to death from that wound."

Interior Ministry spokesman Javed Cheema told reporters in Islamabad Saturday that the government's version is based on a medical report and other evidence collected from the scene of the attack.

"Now, if there is any doubt, if they say that she died of the bullet wounds, we don't mind," he said. "If the Peoples Party's leadership wants, her body can be exhumed and post-mortemed. They are most welcome, but we gave you what the facts are."

Pakistani authorities have accused a pro-al-Qaida fugitive tribal leader, Baitullah Mehsud, of ordering Ms. Bhutto's assassination.

But a spokesman for Mehsud has denied the militant leader had anything to do with the assassination. Government spokesman Cheema says investigators have collected irrefutable evidence of Mehsud's involvement in the suicide attack on Ms. Bhutto.

"No criminal would ever accept responsibility of a crime that one has committed. It does not suit him," he said. "And I don't think anybody else has the capability to recruit and carry out such kind of attacks except for those [al-Qaida] people."

Pakistan plans to hold parliamentary elections next month. But election officials say that violent unrest across the country sparked by Ms. Bhutto's assassination has undermined preparations for the polls.

Another Pakistani opposition leader, Nawaz Sharif, says his party will boycott the elections, adding to the uncertainty surrounding the January 8 date.

Ms. Bhutto returned home from eight years of self-imposed exile in October, hoping to become prime minister for a third time. She narrowly escaped a suicide attack on her homecoming rally in Karachi, hours after she landed in Pakistan.

UK rail regulator launches investigation into line closure at short notice

December 29, 2007 The Office of Rail Regulation (ORR), the regulatory authority for Great Britain's railway network, has launched an investigation of Network Rail procedures following a complaint from Virgin Trains regarding over-running engineering works on New Year's Eve.

Network Rail, who are responsible for the British railway infrastructure, have announced that as part of ongoing engineering work to improve the West Coast Main Line, no services will be able to pass through Rugby on December 31.

The closure will affect services operated by Virgin Trains, London Midland and First ScotRail.

Chris Gibb, the Managing Director of Virgin Trains said, "I am very disappointed that Network Rail (NR) has given us so little opportunity to warn our passengers of this further disruption. We were first warned of the possibility of this additional work on 6 December."

"Because of the seriousness of the situation we felt it necessary to refer the matter to the Office of Rail Regulation. We simply cannot have NR bullying train operators in this way just because their engineering planning processes are in a mess."

The company has warned passengers that journeys are likely to be extended by an hour or more in some cases.

Whilst the ORR will be investigating the complaint from Virgin, they have ruled that the work should still go ahead.

A spokesman for Network Rail said, "Work will be ongoing for most of the next year, but the Christmas period is the last major opportunity we have to do key work while passenger numbers are down during the relatively long holiday period.

"It was only realised at the beginning of December that work was falling behind. Rail companies are usually given 12 weeks notice of engineering work. Virgin were told only at the beginning of the month, so that is very late.

"Network Rail is extremely sorry and apologises to passengers for the inconvenience."

According to the company, the engineering works will contribute to enabling increases in service frequencies and reductions in journey times on the West Coast Main Line from December 2008.

Comments:Australian David Hicks is released from Yatala Labour Prison

Why does the public like rebels?
The situation in Australia is very much like what we have in New Zealand currently too. You have a convicted terrorist that everyone is, to put it bluntly, happy that he has been released from prison.

In New Zealand we have a person who was convicted (but then had convictions squashed because of a "serious miscarriage of justice") of murdering his family. Everyone here thinks that he didn't do it.

But why? Why are people like this seen to be someone who they necessarily may not be. --Nzgabriel | Talk 21:48, 29 December 2007 (UTC)
 * Many Australians believe that he did not receive a fair trial in a legitimate court. Along the way, the man (probably a terrorist) and the fight for a fair trial became merged. In a way Hicks has become (in Australia at least) a symbol of the injustices of Guantanamo. I agree that David Hicks is no hero, and shouldn't be treated as one. - 61.35.78.116 02:57, 30 December 2007 (UTC)
 * I completely agree with you in regards to the hero statement. --Nzgabriel | Talk 03:14, 30 December 2007 (UTC)

Are Australians so naive?
In a perfect world, it would seem fair for us Aussies to unite as one and get behind David Hicks and the injustices he endured throughout his lengthy ordeal. However, I cannot help but wonder if in fact we have all been taken for a ride. I say this because in war, there are always two sides and it is apparent that Hicks was 'against'us. Are we so quick to forget who he stood with and what he stood for? A lot of those I have spoken to about Hicks and this issue have the same opinion-So what?? Who cares?? So he bloody well should rot in some little cell somewhere for being a traitor to his country!! And why should we really care about what happens to Hicks?? He clearly didn't care for us and our people and our children when he decided to take up arms against us and the freedom we take for granted in this country-it's apparent now however that after the fact and when his 'rights' as an aussie were taken away, he believed he was entitled to the treatment and 'fair go' we as a nation pride ourselves in. I find it hard to believe that if Hicks had evaded capture he wouldn't still be on the 'other side', killing our Australian service men and women for a cause he put before our country. So why do we really care about him and the so called 'inhumane' way he was treated?? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 144.137.216.65 (talk) 04:31, 9 March 2008 (UTC)

User:Brian McNeil/Scientology tax-exempt in South Africa

Already in December 2007 the Church of Scientology in South Africa was certified as tax exempt by the South African Revenue Services (SARS).

The president of the Church in South Africa, Ryan Hogarth, said that the Revenue Services issued the Church with a certificate approving its tax-exempt status.

A SARS spokesperson told the Southafrican newspaper Independent Online that the reason for approval is that the Church met the criteria as a 'Public Benefit Organisation'.

Already in 2000 ministers of the Church of Scientology in South Africa received the right to perform legal marriages.

New England Patriots go undefeated in NFL regular season

December 30, 2007 With a 38-35 victory over the New York Giants at Giants Stadium Saturday night, the New England Patriots became the second team in the modern era of the National Football League to go undefeated (16-0) in the regular season. The only other team to have achieved this feat was the Miami Dolphins in 1972, who were 14-0 due to a different regular season structure at the time.

Trailing by as many as 12 points in the third quarter, the Patriots soon came back with touchdowns from running back Laurence Maroney and wide receiver Randy Moss.

Two other NFL records were broken in the course of one play; with 11:06 remaining in the game, quarterback Tom Brady threw a pass to Moss for a touchdown. This broke Peyton Manning's record of 49 touchdown passes and Jerry Rice's record of 22 touchdown catches. The Patriots also ended up with a record-high 589 points for the season.

"In this game of football, it's hard to go 16-and-0," Moss stated. "As a football player and a fan of the game, my hat's off to this organization."

Don Shula, coach of the undefeated 1972 Miami Dolphins, commended the Patriots, saying "going undefeated during the regular season is a remarkable achievement."

In an attempt to reach as many viewers as possible, the game was simulcast on three networks, with the coverage from NFL Network (only digital/satellite channel) being broadcast on NBC and CBS. This was the first NFL game to be nationally televised on more than one broadcast network since Super Bowl I in 1967.

Comments:UK rail regulator launches investigation into line closure at short notice

I'd have rather more sympathy for Virgin if they'd tried to run any sort of service between Coventry and London last Thursday and Friday, even a bus replacement service, but they just shut up shop. So much for a supposed public service! -- 83.104.44.241 19:20, 30 December 2007 (UTC)

Bilawal Bhutto, son of Benazir, to assume leadership of PPP

December 30, 2007

It has been announced that Bilawal Bhutto Zardari, 19, the son of former Pakistani Prime Minister Benazir Bhutto will take her place as the head of the Pakistan People's Party (PPP) and lead the party alongside his father Asif Ali Zardari. It is also announced and confirmed that the PPP along with the Nawaz Sharif's Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N), will contest the upcoming elections for a new Prime Minister on January 8.

"I stand committed to the stability of the federation. The long and historic struggle for democracy will continue with renewed vigor. My mother always said democracy is the best revenge," said Bhutto in a statement during a press conference today.

It is reported that Benazir wanted her son to take her place if anything happened to her, according to her will which was written just two days before she returned to Pakistan from exile in October.

It has also been announced that the PPP has voted in favor of a resolution that calls for an investigation into Benazir's assassination which will be given to the United Nations. The resolution says that they would like the United Kingdom to help with the investigation, and that the PPP does not trust any investigations performed by the government of Pakistan.

Despite Bhutto being the new head of the PPP, Zardari says that Mukhdoom Amin Fahim, a loyal party member, will run in any elections for a new Pakistani Prime minister. But his bid for the seat may have to wait.

The current ruling party in Pakistan the PML-Q party states that because of continuing violence and riots in Pakistan that were set off by Benazir's assassination, elections may not be held for another three months or more. So far, elections are scheduled to take place on January 8, 2008.

Asif Ali Zardari is expected to handle the Party's affairs until Bhutto returns from England, where he is currently in school studying in Christ Church, at the University of Oxford. When he returns, control of the Party will be handed over to him. Despite that, Zardari states that he will be answering questions from the media and politicians because Bhutto is still "of a tender age."
