Six dead in arson attack in Bridgetown, Barbados

September 6, 2010 Six people have died after a clothing store was set on fire during an armed robbery in, Barbados. Two men entered Campus Trendz Clothing Store wielding and demanded money. The pair then set a fire and fled the scene.

Three employees and three customers headed to the back of the store to try and escape the blaze but failed to exit the store. All of the victims were female and one is reported to have been a toddler.

A witness described the events saying that he was stood on the pavement outside of the store when he saw a man run across the pavement.

The witness said, "Then a second fellah with something like a scarf over his face ran behind him and then I heard this big explosion. Within minutes I saw this big gush of smoke and the whole of the store was on fire. I have never seen anything like that.”

Former of Barbados  has called for "stiff penalties" for those responsible for the attack. He said “When somebody could throw a cocktail in a building where other Barbadians are, we have to call it what it is, modern terrorism and they must face the full measure and full weight [of the law].” He has also called for a national day of mourning for the victims.

Thread:Comments:Australian teacher drops 'gay' from kookaburra folk song/not news/reply

Personally, I believe that any issues relating to the common—but erroneous—perception of homosexuals as second-class citizens (be it by schoolchildren, teachers, politicians, or the man on the street) is news. Homosexuals are the new blacks.

Not all people who use gay as a negative have that attitude. Use of gay adjective #6 is not incompatible with respect for homosexuals, championing of their rights or being a member of the GLBT community.

That usage of the word is derived—if my memory serves me correctly—from the common derision for homosexuals. Besides, I am sure homosexuals will be offended by the use of the word "gay" to mean "bad", in the same way a woman would be offended if "female" were used to refer to something as despicable.

I believe you are correct as in to the derivation. I have never heard a gay use the term, but I have heard a couple of bisexuals use it on that meaning.

'Daybreak' launches on ITV in UK

September 8, 2010 , a new breakfast show on ITV in the United Kingdom, launched on Monday at 0600 (0500 ). The show was hosted by and, both of whom previously presented  on.

Opening the broadcast, Bleakley commented: "Dawn is happening, day is breaking behind us here, it's a beautiful thing here behind us in the studio." Chiles then commented: "The sun is up and thank goodness. We spent good money bringing you this view [...] at least you can see it. Thank goodness for that." On the website for The Guardian, Stuart Heritage stated that "[a]lthough it does seem like a continuation of rather than a bold reinvention, some of the new aspects of Daybreak have worked. Adrian and Christine have done reasonably well and the other new faces all seem like good additions." The set for the programme features two purple sofas with a large round desk in between the sofas and a skyline of London in a backdrop.

The new programme was followed at 0830 BST (0730 UTC) by another new programme, entitled  — hosted by — which was broadcast until 0925 BST (0825 UTC). Kelly stressed: "I've really missed you. I hope you like our new look and we've got a packed show for you today." The Lorraine set contains a pink sofa, a pink armchair and a large round white desk. The two new programmes are the successors to GMTV — which had its last broadcast on Friday.

Previously, Alison Sharman, ITV Director of Factual and Daytime, explained: "Daybreak plays a key part in ITV’s ongoing transformation and reflects the fact that creative renewal lies at the heart of our schedule, which is being modernised and improved under Peter Fincham. We want to ensure that the core audience of housewives with children keep watching but are also determined to attract new viewers to our revitalised breakfast show. As we approach the next stage of this transformational journey our newly confirmed anchors — Christine and Adrian — will be the lynchpins of Daybreak with their unique and brilliant partnership."

Obama announces plan to build roads, railroads and runways

September 6, 2010

In a speech in Wisconsin, US President Barack Obama announced a 50 billion plan to restore 150,000 miles of roads, lay 4,000 miles of railroad tracks and rebuild 150 miles of airport runways within six years. The speech was given at an annual Labor Day festival in to union workers on Monday afternoon.

"All of this will not only create jobs immediately, it's also going to make our economy hum over the long haul," Obama said during the speech. The president also said that "we are going to rebuild 150,000 miles of our roads — that's enough to circle the world six times... We're going to lay and maintain 4,000 miles of our railways — enough to stretch coast-to-coast" and that he was "going to keep fighting, every single day, every single hour, every single minute to turn this economy around".

Most of the new railways that Obama talked about will be high-speed rail lines, and the president also said that his administration would "restore 150 miles of runways and advance a next-generation air traffic control system to reduce travel time and delays for American travelers — something I think folks across the political spectrum could agree on." In the Obama Administration's plan, a new infrastructure bank will be created.

Obama stressed that the new bill will not add to the federal budget deficit, with Obama saying that "this is a plan that will be fully paid for. It will not add to the deficit over time — we're going to work with to see to that." An Obama administration official also said that the plan will be funded by closing tax loopholes for oil and gas corporations.

Though Obama said that "these are projects and efforts that have bipartisan support that we know could possibly get support in the and the ", Republicans expressed reservations about the new plan, with Senate Minority Leader  calling it "a last-minute, cobbled-together stimulus bill".

September 11 Quran burning endangers troops, says US Gen. Petraeus
General David Petraeus, US commander in Afghanistan, warned on Monday that a planned Quran burning in a Florida church would endanger US troops in Afghanistan. Gen. Petraeus said that the burning of the Islamic holy book, set to take place on September 11, "could cause significant problems" for US troops fighting in the Afghanistan War. The general also said that the burning "is precisely the kind of action the Taliban uses."

The Quran, also known as the Koran, burning is set on the day that Islamic terrorists attacked the World Trade Center in New York. The book burning will be in a, Florida church called the Dove World Outreach Center. Pastor Terry Jones has declared September 11 "International Burn a Quran Day".

God "not necessary" for creating universe, says Hawking
In British theoretical physicist Stephen Hawking's new book, the scientist argues that a God was "not necessary" for creating the universe. In The Grand Design, Professor Hawking also says that the Big Bang was a consequence of physics at work.

$50 Billion dollars is a drop in the bucket. Not even $1 billion dollars per state. Given the amount of debt that the United States has accumulated, it's going to be hard pressed to put future money into infrastructure.

UK researchers discover first antibiotics originating from insects

September 8, 2010

A group of, UK researchers, led by Simon Lee, found that brains of certain species of  and  contain substances toxic to  organisms. The scientists considered the brain as the most vital part of the insect to protect and screened it for antibacterial activity. The results were positive, and scientists are analyzing brain chemicals to determine the one which plays a key role. The discovery could reveal new treatments for multi-drug resistant bacteria, also known as superbugs.

The research focused on insects because of the relatively "unhealthy" environments they often live in. Lee stated that "insects often live in unsanitary and unhygienic environments where they encounter many different types of bacteria, it is therefore logical that they have developed ways of protecting themselves against micro-organisms."

Initially, the scientists screened whole insects, until they found that the brain is the best protected area. Lee commented, "Without [the brain] they die, whereas they can survive losing limbs such as legs. From the locust's point of view, it's important that the central nervous system is protected all the time against bacteria and other pathogens."

The brain chemicals extracts killed some superbugs. Further study and analysis showed that nine molecules killed food poisoning microorganism ', and seven of them killed -resistant deathly '.

The current work in progress is the identification of the exact chemical ingredients which are toxic for the superbugs. The researchers observed that the extracts stop working when exposed to protein-degrading enzymes. Hence the scientists supposed that some are actively participating in the attack.

The extracts don't harm human cells, as the study showed, but Lee stressed that much work is needed, in order to yield more specific conclusions. "We're a long way from these being active drugs", he said.

This is one-sixth the size of SAFETEA-LU, the Transportation Equity Act passed and signed in 2005 to last through 2009. Not even nearly the same amount spent annually under SAFETEA-LU.

America would be in a much better position if TARP and the stimulus were never passed, and instead they passed a new TEA plan for half the cost of the Stimulus bill.

See my comment above. In 2005, the Republican-controlled Congress passed SAFETEA-LU, which invested over $280 billion over four years on road, rail, air and sea infrastructure. That has not been renewed since it expired in 2009.

The Republican-controlled Congress also passed its predecessor, TEA-21, in 1999.

This doesn't even match the annual expenditure under SAFETEA-LU. And yet you say the GOP "underinvested"?

Sic
Regardless of the correctness or not of the use of 'And' to open a sentence (and the wiktionary says it is common), it is inappropriate to use "sic" to draw readers' attention to our views on style or grammar.

More importantly, should the second word of the 4th sentence be "than" or "then"?

--InfantGorilla (talk) 19:27, 9 September 2010 (UTC)

 * I don't quite follow when grammar became a question of POV. We all do it, but we cannot pick and choose what we will leave untouched in quotes and what's ok because we do it too. Blood Red Sandman  (Talk)   (Contribs) 19:29, 9 September 2010 (UTC)

 * We have to decide when to use 'sic', as other publications do. We should use it for blatant errors, but not when someone's English style doesn't follow classical rules. The anon was right to remove 'sic': it broke up the flow without adding to the news.

 * It is rare I disagree with you, but on this issue we are poles apart.

 * --InfantGorilla (talk) 19:40, 9 September 2010 (UTC)

 * I will defer to Amgine below, who I asked to come in as having rather better knowledge of English than myself. However, I note that the IP's reasoning and yours don't match. I also view your second response as a somewhat different proposition to the accusation I was originally subject to. Blood Red Sandman  (Talk)   (Contribs) 19:45, 9 September 2010 (UTC)

 * Argh. Okay, use of sic: for a given error of grammar or usage, even if later repeated, use only once. The later sic is assumed. And is a perfectly acceptable beginning for an independent clause or sentence, especially when quoting dialogue. The first [Bağış] should actually appear after the word 'know', perhaps as [, Bağış,]; the further uses should be omitted. Since the quote is not written in eye dialect, the word in the 4th sentence should be 'then', not 'than'. -  Amgine | t 19:41, 9 September 2010 (UTC)

 * The original accusations were more blunt, and I am sorry to offend you (BRS), but I am not sorry I disagree with you.
 * Thanks for the lesson, Amgine. I learned several things which I will probably continue to get wrong.
 * --InfantGorilla (talk) 20:21, 9 September 2010 (UTC)

 * Ha. Getting things wrong pays; it is considered to be the profession of a career politician. Blood Red Sandman  (Talk)   (Contribs) 20:24, 9 September 2010 (UTC)

Turkish interwiki
I don't read Turkish, but I am quite happy to have the wikilink,(to U2'dan dev İstanbul konseri) as an article about the concert and an article about the walk over the bridge are two articles about the same event, with different focus. One mentions the concert in the last para, and the other mentions the political meetings in the last para.

I think an interwiki should link the closest article about the same news on the sister wiki, but it need not focus on exactly the same development or the same moment in time. Not only are there unavoidable delays in gathering news across languages, but each wiki makes its own choices about what parts of a news item to focus on.

--InfantGorilla (talk) 16:19, 13 September 2010 (UTC)

 * Actually, had I known that the other article did make mention of the political aspect, I would have happily sighted it. That's why I left my reversion unsighted; I simply wasn't sure enough about the content. Blood Red Sandman  (Talk)   (Contribs) 16:39, 13 September 2010 (UTC)

Television journalist said that traffic police saw Saray's car veer off the road and crash but did not hear any gunshots. He said that police have reported a silencer was used in what is thought to have been a planned attack. In addition to being a television presenter, Saray was also a trained lawyer, and served on the local council of a neighborhood.

Human rights organization Reporters Without Borders released a statement stating, "Reporters Without Borders calls for a proper investigation capable of identifying and arresting both the perpetrators and instigators of this murder and bringing them to justice. It would be deplorable it this killing were to go unpunished, which unfortunately has been the case in 99 per cent of the 230 murders of journalists and media workers since the US-led invasion in 2003."

Saray's death brings the death toll of al-Iraqiya journalists killed since the removal of to 15. A total of 230 journalists and media assistants have been killed in Iraq since the.

50 arrested ahead of Swaziland democracy protests

September 8, 2010

Around 50 people have been arrested ahead of a planned human rights protest in Swaziland. The protest had been planned against the monarchy of Swaziland to call attention to the country's alleged lack of human rights. Many of those arrested have been released but several people remain in custody.

The King of Swaziland, Mswati III, has come under pressure for living in luxury with his thirteen wives while many Swazi people are on the poverty line. He has also faced criticism for having a high number of sexual partners, when 26% of 15 to 49 year olds are HIV positive.

Several South African trade unionists were included in the protesters arrested. A spokesman for, the South African trade union federation, said that two of the unionists had not been released and their current whereabouts are unknown.

Human rights group Amnesty International has commented on the events saying that, "The arbitrary arrest of these political activists, lawyers, trade unionists and journalists is nothing short of police harassment and intimidation."

Swaziland is the last country in Africa to hold an.

Australian Senate Committee recommends formation of Charities Commission

September 8, 2010

The Economics Legislation Committee of the Australian Senate reported Tuesday on their investigation into the matter of investigating the benefits of religious charities in Australia, and recommended the formation of a Charities Commission. The recommendation has received. The inquiry began as the result of legislation initially introduced in the Senate by Senator Nick Xenophon after he had received complaints from former members of the Scientology organization in Australia.

The Charities Commission recommended by the Australian Senate Committee would have responsibilities including investigating charitable organizations in order to make sure that their business dealings were forthright. Such organizations would be required to prove they were worthy of maintaining charitable status from the government.

Senator Xenophon commented that the recommendation would begin a process towards increasing accountability of these organizations, "I believe reform is now inevitable. We can't continue to have business as usual when it comes to organisations that have been beyond any reasonable level of accountability."

He emphasized such inquiry came about due to controversial revelations from former members of the Church of Scientology, "This inquiry came about because of legislation I introduced for a public benefit test for religions and charities, and it was as a direct result of being approached by many victims of the Church of Scientology. Their evidence, their complaints played a key role in triggering this inquiry."

Senator Xenophon said that recommendations included in the Report served as a warning to cult-like organizations such as the Church of Scientology. The Report requested that the investigate laws relating to  in the country. The "Tax Laws Amendment (Public Benefit Test) Bill 2010" was introduced into the Senate by Senator Xenophon in May 2010; the Economics Legislation Committee investigated this proposed legislation and completed a report on the matter in the form of a series of recommendations for the new government in Australia to consider.

A member of the inquiry committee itself, Senator Xenophon pointed out that the recommendations of the Report went beyond the scope of his initial proposed legislation through a recommendation that a Charities Commission use a "Public Benefit Test" in order to assess active in the country. Senator Xenophon provided an addendum to the Report in the form of a special notes section, wherein he wrote that due to the nature of the disturbing accounts told before the committee regarding controversial activities of organizations in the country, legislation to set up a Charities Commission should be completed before June 30, 2011.

The Committee's Report included recommendations regarding concerns about controversial activities of cult-like organizations. The Report stated there was sufficient evidence heard before the Committee such that the activities of cults should be investigated in the country with the goal of forming policy broader than simply with respect to taxation laws. For the purposes of the Committee's investigation, the  was cited to define the term cult as, "A religious or pseudo-religious movement, characterised by the extreme devotion of its members, who usually form a relatively small, tightly controlled group under an authoritarian and charismatic leader."

With regard to behaviour of cults in the country, the Committee recommended the Attorney-General report on operations of governmental organization which investigate these groups such as the French government organization,. The recommendation to the Attorney-General stated, "The Committee recommends that the Attorney-General's Department provide a report to the Committee on the operation of Miviludes and other law enforcement agencies overseas tasked with monitoring and controlling the unacceptable and/or illegal activities of cult-like organisations who use psychological pressure and breaches of general and industrial law to maintain control over individuals."

In the summary and recommendations section of the Report, the Committee concluded, "Religions and charities, and other not-for-profit organisations ... play an important role in the community and in the economy. They receive significant tax concessions. It is therefore important that they are transparent and appropriately accountable."

Talk:Researchers find moonlight influences owl monkeys' nocturnal activity

Serious errors
--Pi zero (talk) 07:01, 8 September 2010 (UTC)
 * Azara's owl monkeys do not live in Spain, they live in South America. I think the sources say Argentina, though I'll have to recheck that.  (As a matter of curiosity, the WP article says they're named after Félix de Azara.)
 * The new result from this research is demonstration of masking (of a certain sort), which this article, especially the lede, seems to suggest was previously known.
 * Azara's owl monkeys were chosen because they are the only anthropoid primate exhibiting certain variations in behavioral patterns, while the early paragraphs of this article seem to say that that is the new result from this research.

 * Pursuant to the above, I have submitted for peer-review significant changes to the first two paragraphs of the article. Although I didn't notice anything later in the article that needed changing, I am not at my sharpest as it is the dead of night where I am and I am primarily diurnal.  --Pi zero (talk) 07:36, 8 September 2010 (UTC)

Similarly, I thought the bit about them being stopped by the National Guard was odd, but it's technically accurate. Out-of-context, both "they were stopped by the National Guard" and "they were escorted by the National Guard" are true, depending on the date.

It's a confusing situation, so I might feel better if the article said something more to the effect of "but they were stopped by the Arkansas National Guard under the direction of the governor. It would not be until September 23rd the students would enter the school for the first time, with an escort from the U.S. Army and later the National Guard, no longer under the governor's control." It still doesn't tell the whole story, but it shows what a dynamic time it was.

I know this isn't the page for suggesting edits or what-not, but I'm not motivated enough to mess with the article.

Aboriginal primacy bill introduced to the New South Wales legislative assembly

September 11, 2010 Premier of New South Wales (NSW) introduced a bill earlier today to the state's legislative assembly that will recognise  as the first inhabitants of the state.

The bill, which is mostly symbolic, is set to address some "fundamental truths" and is hoped by some to be another step towards ending inequality and disadvantage in the indigenous community.

"People here [Indigenous audience members]...born prior to 1967 were people who fought wars for this nation, who died for this nation, who worked for this country, who died for this country and yet were non-citizens," Keneally stated as the bill was introduced, "This is a significant constitutional step in the right direction, I'm only hopeful it will not be the only step".

Although Opposition Leader of NSW made statements in support of the bill, he too stressed the importance of improving conditions for the Indigenous people of the state and across the nation.

"There can be no equality of citizenship without equality of opportunity, there can be no equality of opportunity until those of the Aboriginal community have the same life choices and life expectancies as the rest of the community" O'Farrell said.

The bill's introduction took place after a traditional attended by MPs from both sides of parliament and, the Lieutenant Governor of NSW.

David Cameron misses Prime Minister's Questions after father suffers stroke

September 8, 2010 British Prime Minister David Cameron today cancelled his political engagements and missed to be with his ill father in France. 77 year-old Ian Cameron suffered a stroke and heart complications while on holiday. Deputy Prime Minister Nick Clegg took Cameron's place in the House of Commons to answer the questions.

A spokesman at number, the official office of the Prime Minister, said "The Prime Minister was informed this morning that his father Ian is seriously ill after suffering a stroke and heart complications while on holiday in France." Cameron made the decision to go to France after speaking to his father's doctors.

Today's session of Prime Minister's Questions is the first since Parliament rose for the summer recess at the end of July. As the Prime Minister is away, acting leader  also stood down from question time.

Nick Clegg said in his opening statement that he wishes "the Prime Minister ... his father and his family all best wishes at this difficult time". Standing in for Harman, also sent the Prime Minister his best wishes and said he made "exactly the right decision" to be with his father.

Number 10 said that Cameron's brother and sister have also travelled to France.

The title is very POV. It suggests that the questions were more important than his father's stroke. The news here is the stroke, not the questions. DragonFire1024 (Talk to the Dragon) 11:53, 8 September 2010 (UTC)

I don't understand the complaints about the headline
The illness is news and is mentioned in the headline. The BBC reported its effect on the business of the country in a similar way.

However, PMQ's is now over, and this article must be updated with at least Clegg's statement to Parliament, if not Jack Straw's question.

Pastor of Florida church cancels plans to burn Qur'an, later reconsiders

September 10, 2010 The leader of a Gainesville, Florida church announced yesterday that the church had canceled its plan to burn copies of the Qur'an tomorrow but later stated that he had reconsidered his decision. Earlier yesterday, Pastor Terry Jones said that the would cancel the burning of the Islamic holy book, stating that Imam Feisal Abdul Rauf, had agreed to relocate, a mosque and community center to be located a few hundred meters away from the site of the September 11, 2001 attacks.

In a press conference on Thursday, Jones announced that "we have agreed to cancel our event on Saturday and on Saturday I have agreed to meet with the Imam." However, Rauf has denied that he struck a deal with the pastor, saying that he was surprised by the announcement of a deal.

On Thursday night, Jones insisted that he had struck a deal with Rauf, saying that he had been "clearly, clearly lied to". Jones also said that he is having second thoughts of his earlier statement on Thursday afternoon.

"I am glad that Pastor Jones has decided not to burn any Qur'ans. However, I have not spoken to Pastor Jones," Rauf said on Thursday. He followed up, stating that "We are not going to toy with our religion or any other. Nor are we here to barter. We are here to extend our hand to build peace and harmony."

The developer of the New York City mosque in question also denied that a deal had been reached with Jones, stating that "The Muslim community center called Park51 in lower Manhattan is not being moved. The project will proceed as planned."

On Wednesday, Jones had announced his intention to go ahead with the September 11 Qur'an burning. He also said that he has support from churches around the United States, and that people from around the country have been mailing him Qur'ans to burn. The pastor also said that he has received over 100 death threats and has taken to carrying a gun on his hip for self-defense. In the past, the Dove World Outreach Center has declared that "Islam is of the devil" and that the religion is "evil" as it does not teach that Jesus was the son of God. Even though the church announced that it would continue with the plan, Jones could run into trouble as the Gainesville fire department has denied the church a permit to burn the Qur'ans.

Many prominent figures have condemned the Qur'an burning. Yesterday morning, US president Barack Obama responded, "... what he's proposing to do is completely contrary to our values as Americans," and warned, "This is a recruitment bonanza for Al Qaeda." In his interview recorded on Wednesday for Good Morning America, Obama stated that "this stunt that he is talking about pulling could greatly endanger our young men and women in uniform who are in Iraq, who are in Afghanistan", adding, "This could increase the recruitment of individuals who'd be willing to blow themselves up in American cities, or European cities."

, NATO commander in Afghanistan, said on Wednesday that the plan would endanger US troops worldwide. In response to the general's comments, Jones had told the press that "we understand the general's concerns, we are taking those into consideration. We feel it's maybe the right time for America to stand up. How long are we going to bow down? How long are we going to be controlled by the terrorists, by radical Islam? ... As of right now, we are not convinced that backing down is the right thing."

Other prominent people from around the globe condemned the plan earlier this week, including the head of the,. She called it a "disrespectful, disgraceful act," while US Attorney General pitched in, calling the book burning "idiotic and dangerous."

Republican Tea Party activist and former Alaska governor also chimed in, saying that burning the Qur'an would be an "insensitive and an unnecessary provocation — much like building a mosque at ground zero." She also said that people have the constitutional right to burn the book, and that "I would hope that Pastor Terry Jones and his supporters will consider the ramifications of their planned book-burning event. It will feed the fire of caustic rhetoric and appear as nothing more than mean-spirited religious intolerance. Don't feed that fire."

Canada's Stephen Harper condemned the plan, saying that his God was a tolerant God, and suggesting that freedom of religion comes from a tolerant spirit.

A coalition of religious leaders from different religions including Islam, Christianity and Judaism met in Washington to condemn "International Burn a Koran Day". People took to the streets in the Muslim-majority countries of Afghanistan and Pakistan in protest. In Indonesia, the country with the world's largest Muslim population, thousands of protesters gathered around the U.S. Embassy in on Monday.

Due to the increase in tension caused by this activity, INTERPOL released an alert warning of attacks and asking member nations to contact the international police agency if they receive information on public safety hazards.

Despite the criticism, legal commentators say that Jones and his church have the constitutional right to burn the book, which is considered by Muslims to be the word of God. "The First Amendment, as it's been interpreted, would probably not win if it were put up to a vote. It is very hard to explain to people why this sort of conduct should be permitted," said Stephen Gillers, a law professor at New York University.

Father of David Cameron dies in French hospital after suffering stroke

September 8, 2010

The father of David Cameron died in France today. 77 year-old Ian Cameron suffered a stroke while on holiday. David Cameron travelled to France this morning after hearing the news that his father was ill.

A Downing Street spokesman said that Ian died shortly after the Prime Minister arrived at the hospital. It has been reported that the Prime Minister will stay in France overnight.

Ian Cameron was born with both legs deformed, and during his life he underwent numerous operations. Speaking of his father in March, Cameron told ITV reporter "My father is a huge hero figure for me, because he's an amazingly brave man.... To have a disability in the 1930s and 1940s, a different age, was really tough, but he never let it affect him in any way."

David Cameron missed today's session of and cancelled his political engagements to travel to France.

BP report into Gulf of Mexico disaster lays blame on other contractors

September 10, 2010

BP released their report into the causes of the Deepwater Horizon disaster earlier this year on Wednesday, and shifted much of the blame for the explosion and subsequent oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico, the largest accidental marine oil spill in the history of the petroleum industry, onto, the company managing the rig. The report concludes by stating that decisions made by "multiple companies and work teams" contributed to the accident which it says arose from "a complex and interlinked series of mechanical failures, human judgments, engineering design, operational implementation and team interfaces." The report, the product of a four-month investigation conducted by BP's Head of Safety Operations, Mark Bly, criticizes the oil rig's fire prevention systems, the crew of the rig for failing to realize and act upon evidence that oil was leaking from the surface of the ocean, and describes how BP and Transocean "incorrectly accepted" negative pressure test results. The document goes on to note that the blow-out preventer failed to operate, likely because critical components were not operational.

, who will become chief executive of BP, described the accident as "tragic". He said, "we have said from the beginning that the explosion on the Deepwater Horizon was a shared responsibility among many entities. This report makes that conclusion even clearer, presenting a detailed analysis of the facts and recommendations for improvement both for BP and the other parties involved. We have accepted all the recommendations and are examining how best to implement them across our drilling operations worldwide." The report included 25 recommendations, according to a press release, "designed to prevent a recurrence of such an accident." The oil company has previously blamed Transocean and, the well contractor, for the disaster and BP executives feel they have been unfairly blamed by US politicians for the disaster, and the report continues this view.

, who was fired from the position of BP's chief executive following multiple public relations issues, squarley places the blame for the disaster on Halliburton. "To put it simply, there was a bad cement job," he said in a statement, also claiming that BP should not be the only company to take the blame for the explosion. "It would appear unlikely that the well design contributed to the incident," he argues. The report blames the type of cement used by Halliburton, designed to prevent harmful hydrocarbons from reaching the seabed, as well as criticizing the crew of Deepwater Horizon, for failing to realize for forty minutes that oil had started to leak from the well, and once it was realized, the crew "vented" the hydrocarbons "directly onto the rig".

Describing how the explosion, which killed eleven rig personnel, occurred, the report states that "the heating, ventilation and air conditioning system probably transferred a gas-rich mixture into the engine rooms," where the hydrocarbons ignited and a fireball engulfed the rig. But, the report states, the blowout preventer, the ultimate failsafe on the Deepwater Horizon failed, likely due to the fire on the rig. An automated system was not operational because the batteries powering it, located in a control pod, had gone flat, and another control pod contained a faulty solenoid valve.

The report was likely, however, written with the company's legal liability for the disaster in a prominent position, since they are facing hundreds of lawsuits and criminal charges as a result of the spill. The executive summary is four and a half pages long and the first page is made up entirely of legal disclaimers saying if BP was found to be negligent in their operations of the rig, they could be fined a good deal more.

Questions have also been raised as to why BP has chosen to release their report before authorities examine the blowout preventer. The energy editor of , Terry Macalister, wrote that the "catalougue of errors - both human and mechanical" in the report "demolish" the oil industry's "much quoted mantra" of safety first. "It may come first in the board room but it does not down at the wellhead where the real dangers are faced," he wrote. "It is worth remembering that BP, its rig operator Transocean and the main well contractor Halliburton are the blue chip companies in the wider oil and gas sector. If the shoddy work practices highlighted here are what the best-in-class do, then what is happening in the lower reaches of this industry?"

Transocean described the report as a "self-serving" attempt to "conceal the critical factor that set the stage for the incident: BP's fatally flawed well design. In both its design and construction, BP made a series of cost-saving decisions that increased risk – in some cases, severely." In a statement, the company listed five issues they felt had contributed to the disaster that were no fault but BP's. "Transocean's investigation is ongoing, and will be concluded when all of the evidence is in, including the critical information the company has requested of BP but has yet to receive." Members of Congress, who are also carrying out a review into the disaster, also dismissed the report. Ed Markey, the Massachusetts democrat who has been investigating the spill in Congress, said that he felt the report was simply a lengthy defense of the oil company's handling of the spill. "BP is happy to slice up blame, as long as they get the smallest piece," he said.

Bly acknowledged during a press conference in Washington that the report did not detail the charges raised against the company in Congress and that BP permitted a culture of recklessness to flourish. He did, however, reject suggestions that cost-cutting had put lives at risk and the rig was a disaster waiting to happen. "What we see instead is, where there were errors made they were based on poor decision-making process or using wrong information," he said. The Guardian reported that "the report is narrowly focused on the final days before the explosion rather than on earlier decisions about well design and safety procedures. It is also closely focused on the rig itself. No BP officials have been sacked for their role in the explosion, and Bly said there was no indication of any blame beyond the well-site managers."

The Associated Press reported that Bly "said at a briefing in Washington that the internal report was a reconstruction of what happened on the rig based on the company's data and interviews with mostly BP employees and was not meant to focus on assigning blame. The six-person investigating panel only had access to a few workers from other companies, and samples of the actual cement used in the well were not released." The report continued, "Steve Yerrid, special counsel on the oil spill for Florida Gov. Charlie Crist, said the report clearly shows the company is attempting to spread blame for the well disaster, foreshadowing what will be a likely legal effort to force Halliburton and Transocean, and perhaps others, to share costs such as paying claims and government penalties."

Head of Greenpeace's energy campaign Jim Footner said that it was "highly likely that a truly independent report would be even more damning for BP." However, he said, "the real problem is our addiction to oil, which is pushing companies like BP to put lives and the environment at risk. The age of oil is coming to an end and companies like BP will be left behind unless they begin to adapt now. The time has come to move beyond oil and invest in clean energy." Alfred R Sunsen, whose oyster company operating in the Gulf of Mexico is facing the prospect of going out of business after 134 years, reacted angrily the the report. "The report does not address the people, businesses, animals, or natural resources that have been impacted by the disaster and will be dealing with the consequences of their inadequate and slow response to the disaster," he said. The New York Times said that the report is "unlikely to carry much weight in influencing the, which is considering criminal and civil charges related to the spill," and described it as "a public relations exercise" and a "probable legal strategy as it prepares to defend itself against possible federal charges, penalties and hundreds of pending lawsuits."

Wayne Pennington, head of the geological engineering department at, also alleged that BP was wrong to blame other parties involved with the disaster. "The blowout and subsequent explosion and spillage appear to the result of an overall attitude that encouraged unwarranted optimism in the quality of each component of the job, allowing the omission of standard testing procedures, and the misinterpretation of other tests in the most-favorable light." He continued: "Instead, skepticism should reign on any drilling job, and testing and evaluation at each stage of the drilling and completion would then be routine; instead of questioning the need for such things as the cement bond log, the companies involved should insist on checking and double-checking quality at each step of the process. This was clearly not done, repeatedly, in the case of the Macondo well, and disaster resulted."

4.9 million barrels of crude oil leaked into the Gulf of Mexico, causing damage to marine and wildlife habitats as well as the Gulf's fishing and tourism industries. Extensive measures were used to prevent the oil from reaching the coastline of Louisiana, including skimmer ships, floating containment booms, anchored barriers, and sand-filled barricades. Scientists have also reported immense underwater plumes of dissolved oil not visible at the surface. The U.S. Government has named BP as the responsible party, and officials have committed to holding the company accountable for all cleanup costs and other damage.

Dudley went on to say that BP "deeply regret" the disaster. "We have sought throughout to step up to our responsibilities. We are determined to learn the lessons for the future and we will be undertaking a broad-scale review to further improve the safety of our operations. We will invest whatever it takes to achieve that. It will be incumbent on everyone at BP to embrace and implement the changes necessary to ensure that a tragedy like this can never happen again."

200 candles: Chileans celebrate country's Bicentennial

September 18, 2010 Chile is celebrating its Bicentennial, with several events that have been organized by the government for almost a decade. It commemorates two hundred years since the of 1810 was formed, starting the Independence process, that ended in 1818 after  proclaimed it.

The Bicentennial takes place on a holiday from September 17th until 21st. Sebastián Piñera inaugurated the official fondas (places where typical food and drinks of Chile are sold; similar to a tavern) earlier on Friday. Piñera also danced a "pie" of, Chile's national dance, with Government Spokeswoman.

More than 60 thousand people gathered on (Citizen's Square) in Santiago to celebrate the Bicentennial. There was a projection of historical images that also contained a message from the trapped miners in Copiapó. A giant (18 meters of height, 27 of width; weighing 200 kilograms) was raised on the square on Friday morning.

Pichilemu
Celebrations of the Bicentennial in Pichilemu started earlier this month. On September 2, two thousand people lined up in a formation to create the message "Viva Chile Bicentenario Cardenal Caro" on Pichilemu beach "Las Terrazas". The message was used to create a postal stamp to be released worldwide. The event was promoted by the Government of.

Private schools in the city, such as Colegio Preciosa Sangre, prepared events specially for their students. On Thursday, "Fonda Don Vicente Nario" was opened on Preciosa Sangre. Several games were performed there on that morning, including "el emboque", "ponerle la cola al burro" (to put the tail to the donkey), and others.

Another event on Preciosa Sangre took place on Thursday night, when students recreated scenes of the History of Chile, including: a  featuring (starred by Luis Rojas); a chingana (a popular tavern); and selected colonial professions, such as the "motero" (person who sold motemei and chestnuts).

The official fonda of Pichilemu, La Bombonera, was inaugurated on Thursday night by Roberto Córdova, who danced  with people who attended the event. According to Córdova, at least 30,000 people have arrived at Pichilemu as of Friday, and it is estimated that another 30,000 will arrive during the next three days.

A great event took place on Pichilemu beach on Friday afternoon. Chilean typical games highlighted the event. People danced reggaeton, 's cumbias and cuecas, while others were swimming. The National Shoe Fair (Feria Nacional del Calzado) was established on on Thursday, and will stay in the town until September 23rd. Alicia Grez, who works on a kiosk in the Pichileminian Craft Fair located in front of One Discotheque, said that "sales have been excellent," and that "[they] won't miss the possibility to experience such an event like this."

New flotilla planned to set sail for Gaza Strip

September 10, 2010 Non-governmental organizations (NGOs) throughout Europe and the United States are currently assembling a flotilla of up to 20 ships, which will set sail for the Gaza strip in the coming months in an attempt break the Israeli blockade of the Palestinian territory. Israeli-Swedish activist Dror Feiler said that the goal of the new flotilla is to double the size of the previous one, and for it to include more than a thousand people. "The Israeli Army can stop 12 to 50 ships if it wants," Feiler said. "[Nonetheless] there are so many ships since so many people want to get together to stop the siege, which is a collective punishment on the people of Gaza and is unacceptable."

The Israel Defense Force is monitoring the actions of the planned flotilla, according to a report in the  on Tuesday. The Israeli army is calling this new fleet of ships "the mother of all flotillas." A wide range of scenarios is being prepared for which include the possibility that due to the larger number of ships reported to be part of the flotilla, the Israeli navy may need to intercept it before the ships get close to Israel's shoreline. Officials say that Israel will warn ship operators that their crew may be detained and the vessel held until impound fees are paid, claiming the backing of international maritime treaties.

"The legal approach proved effective as a deterrent, and we're prepared to see it through as a punishment. If we are to pay a price for defending the blockade, the other side will pay a price for challenging it," a senior Israeli government official. The official declined to be named.

A European campaigner against the blockade, Anwar Ghabi, told Arabic news agency Quds Press that the new flotilla will be backed by hundreds of NGOs, including several human rights groups.

The first flotilla to challenge the blockade was stopped by Israeli naval commandos in May this year. Nine activists were killed, and several dozen activists and seven Israeli commandos were wounded after Israeli troops clashed with activists. Harsh international and domestic criticism followed. Subsequent aid ships were seized or diverted to Egypt.

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 JoshuaP. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name JoshuaP~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 23:19, 17 March 2015 (UTC)

Renamed
 This account has been renamed as part of single-user login finalisation. If you own this account you can |log in using your previous username and password for more information. If you do not like this account's new name, you can choose your own using this form after logging in: . -- Keegan (WMF) (talk) 06:32, 21 April 2015 (UTC)

Thread:Comments:FBI asks Wikimedia Foundation to remove seal from websites, Wikimedia declines/The A is out of proportion.

The version I saw on Wikipedia is not a good representation. The A in the lettering is out of proportion with the rest of the letters.
