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 Betterpromises. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Betterpromises~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 23:12, 17 March 2015 (UTC)

Researchers: Wild gorillas seen using tools

October 1, 2005 Wild gorillas were seen using tools, researchers for the U.S. based Wildlife Conservation Society (WCS) said.

Images show one female gorilla apparently using sticks to test the depth of water, another female made a bridge with a stump detached from a bush to help her cross muddy ground, and a female using a stump from a bush as support as she dug for herbs.

Thomas Breuer, of the WCS operating in the Republic of the Congo, called the discovery "truly astounding" and added that it was "quite surprising to me and my team to make this observation". Only wild chimps, orangutans, and captive gorillas were previously known to use tools, meaning that now all of the four great apes were oberserved using tools, suggesting that the usage of tools might predate the evolution of modern humans.

But, tool usage seems to be infrequent among wild gorillas. They were observed for some ten years in the Mbeli Bai area before this discovery was made.

Nevertheless, Breuer is fascinated by what he calls a "similarity" between humans and gorillas: "If you or me want to cross a swamp, we use the same solutions as gorillas."

Gorillas are an endangered species; they appear on the Red List of IUCN.

Upload Request
Unfortunetley, I'm on really slow dial-up atm, so could someone possibly upload some of the images that appear in the first source to the commons? It says on the end of that page that All journal content, except where otherwise noted, is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution License (CC-BY 2.5) (which is way to cool imho :)). Now, the images have no additional notes so I assume they are also licenced under the CC-BY. --Deprifry | +T+ 20:16, 30 September 2005 (UTC)

New Zealand airlines relax knife regulations

October 1, 2005

New Zealand has relaxed the safety rules imposed on internal airlines in 2002, once more allowing passengers to carry pocket knives with blades less than 60mm long and knitting needles.

Other larger items remain banned, including ice-skates, pool cues, hockey sticks, skateboards, cricket bats and harpoons.

Other countries more at risk from terrorism such as the United States of America and Australia will maintain their stricter rules and continue to ban a range of small, sharp objects from their internal flights.

The airlines have also agreed to help return items seized from passengers before boarding.

User:Mrmiscellanious/$97 Linux-based desktop computer

From time to time, people often ask me to build them a new computer, or find me one that's awfully cheap. Now, for the majority of computer users around the world - surfing the web, sending email, instant messaging and word processing are probably the most used tasks of a computer. Luckily for many, these tasks require minimal power, space - and can run on a very cheap computer, built from scratch.

Furthermore, this project is not even proven to work. All the products below, if assembled correctly, should work - but I haven't tested any of the products listed below. Also, you'll need your own monitor, keyboard and mouse for comfortable usage of this machine.

Now, I didn't keep a real good track of economics here - a simple adding of rounded-to-whole-dollars, some may include shipping, some not, etc. In either way, the price (without shipping/potential taxes) should actually be lower than $97.

Parts
All computers need parts. But more importantly, they need parts that work together. Below are links to parts that are readily available to purchase via the Internet that can be used to construct a computer for approximately $97 US Dollars:

 * Case:. Now, I know you could be one of those people who would make their own case out of wood, or even stuff it into a camera case - but let's stay traditional (and cheap), and go with this homebrew case and power supply combo for $19.  Sure beige isn't as attractive as it was 15 years ago, but then again - I don't think too many of us are, either.

 * Motherboard: ASUS is a very nice producer of motherboards.  I found a very versatile motherboard (refurbished) with onboard Video and LAN, but chose to leave out Audio (due to the fact that this machine won't have a CD-ROM drive, nor will support the storage for media files).  Including a power cord, screws, and power supply connectors, you can find the ASUS CUV-LV Motherboard for ~$20.

 * CPU: We don't need that much power on this machine (much to Tim Allen's dismay), so we'll keep it simple with a 600MHz Pentium III processor (which fits the 370 Socket, meaning it will work in our Motherboard above). 600MHz PIII processor for $11.

 * Fan: Since we're buying mostly OEM or even refurbished products, the above CPU doesn't come with a heatsink or a fan. Luckily, these are cheap items (and are probably better off bought at a local store rather than online).  A quick search gave me this combo for Socket 370 processors for $5.

 * RAM: Simple PC133 SDRAM will do. Originally, I was planning to have 256MB of RAM, but I realized later on that this project wouldn't need it.  Instead, we're going with a standard, but sufficient, 128MB of RAM priced at $12.

 * Storage Media: Compact Flash cards will do just as good as a hard drive for this purpose.  For what this computer is going to be used for, 256MB of storage is plenty enough for the Operating System along with most of the essential programs.  Kingston 256MB CompactFlash card priced for $19.

 * Connector: This is the little device that will make our CompactFlash card act like a hard drive. By connecting the card to this device, an IDE cable can match it at the other end to perform hard-drive like tasks. I'm sure a few of the more advanced hobbyists can probably make their own device like this for cheaper, but to stay on the pre-assembled track (for parts, that is), a CompactFlash to IDE connector will run you $11.

Add them all up, and it equals $97. As said before, this is more of an estimation (as taxes and shipping are included in some, and not in others) - but proves that a ~$100 desktop is feasible for the commercial market.

Operation of project
Now, as of this stage - the computer lacks a floppy drive, CD-ROM drive, and phone modem. But, you should only need to use a CD-ROM drive once (and, if your Internet doesn't connect via phone line, a modem is unnecessary as well) - meaning you could install the Operating system on another machine, or connect a spare drive up to the project. Once installation is complete, you won't need the drive anymore.

A choice of Linux distros below are ideal for this project:
 * Puppy Linux. Very easy to use flavor packed with almost all basic programs a normal user would need, although a little large in size with a full installation - either way, it *should* fit on the card (but you might have to stray away from the install script).
 * Damn Small Linux. Smallest distro with its programs, and leaves plenty of room on the flash card for more applications to be installed (through the use of apt-get, as it is derived from Debian).
 * Austrumi. Slackware is a very nice and strong distro, and provides the base of Austrumi.  Similar to DSL, the distro allows for more programs to be installed on the flash drive if the base install doesn't provide enough.

Lethal explosions hit Bali

October 1, 2005

Several explosions hit popular tourist destination areas in Kuta Beach, Indonesia early today, killing at least 19 people and injuring 100 others. Between 11:50 and 12:00 UTC, three explosions hit the Kuta Square and Jimbaran Beach, two popular Western tourist areas in Bali.

The Indonesian national news agency, ANTARA, reported that the first two explosions occurred at 6:50 p.m. local time, near a Jimbaran food court and the third blast at 7:00 p.m. in Kuta Town Square. Other reports claim that the blasts occurred at around 7:15 p.m. The two major blasts are thought to have struck a crowded main square at central Kuta, and the other in a cafe on Jimbaran beach, near the Four Seasons Hotel, areas which are generally popular with Western tourists. At this time, it is not clear how many explosions were involved; however, 4 blasts have been reported.

The bombings occurred just two days before the start of the Muslim holy month of Ramadan and 11 days before the third anniversary of the 2002 Bali bombing.

Junk food to be banned in English schools

October 1, 2005 The British Education Secretary, Ruth Kelly, announced during the week that junk food is to be banned from schools in England from September 1st 2006. Items such as crisps, sweets, chocolate bars and chewing gum are expected to be among the items banned.

Junk foods are classified as those high in fat, salt or sugar. Recently the British government committed £280m to improving school food over the next three years. That followed a campaign by celebrity chef, Jamie Oliver, to improve school food.

The action by the British government to ban junk food has already sparked debate in Ireland whether they should follow suit.

Talk:Junk food to be banned in English schools

As owner of takeaway4you.com i'm releasing this article into the public domain to be edited as yee see fit. → CGorman (Talk) 13:53, 1 October 2005 (UTC)

Subject or country?
Junk food to be banned in British schools would be a more appropriate title. 10:33, 2 October 2005 (UTC)
 * No it wouldn't. As far as I know, the rule only applies to England, not Wales and Scotland. → CGorman (Talk) 16:38, 2 October 2005 (UTC)

"The British Education Secretary" is a member of the British government, no? If the rule only applies to England as you suspect, then the title should say "England". If you feel that not all British schools are impacted (i.e. "Junk food to be banned in British schools" isn't a strong or accurate enough title), then perhaps "Junk food to be banned in England's schools" would be fitting. Japan's English schools are not affected, so "English schools" is (in one sense of "English") not a strong or accurate enough word for the title. Karen 08:10, 3 October 2005 (UTC)

I attend an English school which doesn't ban any foods. Students here learn English, but we are not subjected to dietary control. Teaching is not done by banning here. That is a shame what is happening to British students. 14:15, 2 October 2005 (UTC)

"Junk" foods may affect aggressive behaviour and school performance

October 4, 2005

Dr. Stephen Schoenthaler, a Professor of Criminal Justice at the California State University in Stanislaus, has long argued that there is a link between a healthy diet and decreased aggressive behaviour, as well as with increased IQ and school performance.

Dr. Schoenthaler is well-known for a youth detention center study where violations of house rules fell by 37% when vending machines were removed and the cafeteria replaced canned food by fresh alternatives. He summarizes his findings by saying that “Having a bad diet right now is a better predictor of future violence than past violent behaviour.” In a very large test, Schoenthaler directed a study in meals at 803 New York City schools, in low-income neighbourhoods, finding that the number of students passing final exams increased by 16%.

Critics have questioned some of Dr. Schoenthaler findings, due to the lack of placebo control groups. However, more recent work by Dr. Bernard Gesch, a physiologist at the University of Oxford, has placed some of the work on a more scientific footing. Dr. Gesch found that nutrition supplements produced a 26% drop in violations of prison rules over a placebo, and a 37% decrease in violent offences. The Netherlands has embarked on a wider scale dietary research program in 14 prisons.

The short term behaviour consequences of ingesting sugar are well understood: an initial burst on energy, followed a sugar low in which your body produces adrenalin, which makes you irritable and explosive. However, Schoenthaler and Gesch suggest that there are long term impacts over and above the short term consequences of blood sugar variations.

Talk:U.S. Government ordered to release more images related to Abu Ghraib case

Good article! This unsigned comment was made by Nyarlathotep

Where's the media???
Let's get it out; let freedom ring! Neutralizer 22:33, 3 October 2005 (UTC)

No real justification
for holding back this story,imo. Its nice and tight as is. Neutralizer 00:14, 4 October 2005 (UTC)
 * It's terrible; it describes nothing and is bordering on NPOV. Do you not understand we have a standard for QUALITY on this site?  The article, in its present form, does not reflect that.  But, you could always spend more time working on it rather than making dissenting comments and accusing others of protecting others on the talk page.  Choice is up to you.  --Mrmiscellanious 00:21, 4 October 2005 (UTC)
 * Isn't it hypocritical that you aren't "working on it"? Also,.please quit baiting me into an argument and trying to disrupt the site. You were not involved in this article at all until I tried to publish it + no one else is agreeing with you that it's a "terrible" story. Neutralizer 10:49, 4 October 2005 (UTC)
 * I'm not getting into this again, "Neutralizer". If it's not professional - it won't get published.  And there is no one that can argue in a viable way that this article, in its present form, is even semi-professional.  Stop whining about others and actually do something.  From the big bully, --Mrmiscellanious 13:09, 4 October 2005 (UTC)
 * Please stop the personal attack characterizations "whining". Only you want to stop the publishing of this article as it currently is. I certainly do not think you qualify for the term "bully" so please stop the false insinuations; and PLEASE put the personal comments on the my talk page from now on; not on this article's talk page. Neutralizer 13:34, 4 October 2005 (UTC)

Neutralizer, You need to keep a cool head about this sort of thing. Here are some simple strategies for dealing with perceived or real editorial bias: Always remember that you are right to push your agenda here, as this is the only way wikinews gets articles, but individual articles should be as NPOV as is reasonable. - Nyarlathotep 11:33, 5 October 2005 (UTC)
 * 1) Make a recongnizable effort to make the story "more" NPOV, but don't violate your agenda in doing so.
 * 2) Flame wars never push your agenda.  Be generally helpful, good natured, and trying to make a better story always does.
 * 3) Put real work into finding additional information which supports your agenda, a task which can make any story more NPOV and lets you channel your anger away from flame wars.  By doing this in an NPOV way, you effectively scilence "disinterested but hostile" editors, such as those who might simply want a story to be dropped.  Example:  If the story stands accused of NPOV by virtue of linking two tenuously related things, you can usualy split the story into two seperate stories, both of which push your original comparison agenda through internal crosslinks and as related news, both of which are much more NPOV on their own, and require a hostile editor to do more work to oppose them.  Plus you garner more frontpage space for your information.
 * 4) If the tager does not leave a comment on the talk page, and you had a hard time making it any more NPOV, you may accuse them of "tag and dash" on the talk page.  If they do not respond with explicit suggestions within 8 hours, it will seriously discredit them and their tag, making it more likely that a third person will remove it.  Clearly other people need to agree with your assesment that it is already NPOV for this to work.
 * 5) If the tager leave vague and useless comments, as is common with those pushing a conservative agenda, you must try to reinterpret their critisism in a sane way.  Often their are just a few small parts of the article which use "over the top" POV phrasing.  You can usualy rephrase these to both better support your agenda but be more NPOV.  You should then politely respond on the talk page by explaining what you've interpreted their comment to mean; thus making it clear that they did not think much about it but that you thought about it for them, again discrediting further suggestions of theirs.

P.S. Here I've added the Bush administration's silly claims about insighting terrorists to make the article more balanced. But I've also inserted the judges statment that their claims are silly and wrong, which actually makes the story more balanced while pushing your original agenda even more!

 * Thank you; I'll give it a try; what I'm doing now isn't working that well,I must admit. Neutralizer 13:54, 5 October 2005 (UTC)

 * Do not push your agenda in Wikinews articles at all. There is no way to do so without destroying the value of the article. Please READ THE NPOV POLICY. A method of "pushing an agenda" on Wikinews is with the SUBJECT CHOICE of your contributions, but you cannot within the articles themselves push an agenda. Repeated posting of NPOV material is considered a disruption to the Wiki, therefore vandalism, and is grounds for blocking. Please see the blocking policy. Policies may be found at Policies and guidelines - Amgine/talk 20:25, 5 October 2005 (UTC)
 * P.S. Also realize that while admins may be sympathetic to your agenda, they cannot put that before the policies of the wiki.

Uncensoring
I have replaced the previous edit which included the gripping and riveting aspects of this story. If its too ugly to read,then don't read it. Neutralizer 21:16, 4 October 2005 (UTC)

 * Please explain why a quote from a US Gov't report about its own abuses is relevant to a FOIA court case news article? I have removed the quote as it clearly is not NPOV in this article. - Amgine/talk 00:34, 5 October 2005 (UTC)

The quote goes to explaining the Bush administrations position on insighting terrorists, so we can keep it. However, I had a bit of trouble working it into the narative. - Nyarlathotep 10:36, 5 October 2005 (UTC)

 * The quote says nothing of the kind. It is not related to the FOIA court case. It makes the article a dismissable partisan attack because it is misleading, biased, and irrelevant to the facts about the court order. It is relevant to what the administration is attempting to keep out of the public eye, but that is not what this article is about. - Amgine/talk 00:07, 7 October 2005 (UTC)

 * Johnodee,Nyarlathotep and myself feel this quote belongs in this published story, so I have put it back Neutralizer 12:56, 7 October 2005 (UTC)

"Develop" tagged once more
This story needs much work on it to describe more about the case, as well as the ruling. Surely for an article with so much sources it shouldn't be difficult to add more. All editors of this article please read the Content guide, the style guide, the three revert rule (becoming close to some users' counts), and all other policies and guidelines. Remember, we do want our published articles to reflect professionalism. --Mrmiscellanious 00:35, 5 October 2005 (UTC)

 * Sorry MrM. you are the only one who thinks it's not ready to publish. Neutralizer 11:03, 5 October 2005 (UTC)

 * No, MrM was right, it needed the administration stated objections, as well as the judges dismissal of those objections. It could also stand with a wrapup paragraph about all the other times this administration has tried to silence pictures, like the New Orleans bodies, soldier coffins, etc.  As I said above, if you feel your being unfairly treated by an editor with a conservative bias, you can simple burry them in good writing and good information. - Nyarlathotep 11:39, 5 October 2005 (UTC)

Or alternately continue as you are doing right now - bury them in misleading titles and your own willingness to bend the truth to serve your obvious bias. Claiming that "various sources" indicate that there are images of child rape involved when in fact this is based solely on the testimony of one detainee shows a total lack of any resembling journalistic integrity on your part. But I'm sure you're aware of that already. I am in agreement with Mrmiscellanious in my belief that this article should not be published as it currently stands. - Unsigned comment by 144.37.176.56

Title needs to reflect the real story
As the Senator says; this story is not just about more images of humiliation. This story is about images of child rape.Please let's not be sanitizing the story. Neutralizer 11:15, 5 October 2005 (UTC)

I agree, titles should be interestng. - Nyarlathotep 12:27, 5 October 2005 (UTC)

I suggest: Court orders U.S. Government to release Abu Ghraib "rape and murder" images, as that reflects the content via a quote.

Great story; made lead
The existing lead story has been sitting there for days and is boring,imo. This story,on the other hand, is riveting and has not been saturating the newswires as has the appointment story. If anyone has a better lead story, please go ahead. Neutralizer 11:31, 5 October 2005 (UTC)

So, where are the photos? or can someone define "release"?
A...judge...ordered the release of...photos and videos. So, have they been released? Has the release been limited in some way (eg, not to the public)? Has the ordered release not happened yet?

Leaving these questions unanswered makes the story confusing. 85.28.66.218 13:33, 5 October 2005 (UTC)

 * The U.S. Government is masterful at delay and deflection when things go against them...this is just one more example of that; I would not be surprised if the images are never seen by anyone other than members of the US government who saw them many,many months ago. Hopefully someone will put them on the internet which is the only platform for free speech left. Neutralizer 14:00, 5 October 2005 (UTC)

 * That's all very interesting, but I came here to discuss improving the article. Is there no one that knows the meaning of a judge ordering the release of photos? 85.28.66.218 18:47, 5 October 2005 (UTC)

 * The judge's order undoubtedly includes a timeline when it must be complied with - one of the many facts not reported in this article. The current administration has a history of ignoring FOIA orders it plans to appeal, and usually requests injunctions staying the decision only when they are taken back to court to enforce decisions. It is likely the administration is engaging in the same legal delaying tactics in this case.

 * When the media are released, they will be released only to the requesting parties and may have additional restrictions on their publication based on a case-by-case basis. In other words, if they are allowed to do so Human Rights Watch may choose to make them available or not - it's up to them. In previous decisions they have made publically available all documents they are allowed to make publically available. - Amgine/talk 19:01, 5 October 2005 (UTC)

 * It seems to me that your second paragraph would be a good addition to the article. Part or all of your first paragraph would be good too, but would need some backing up or some "may/might/can" softening words. 85.28.66.218 22:48, 5 October 2005 (UTC)

Can we put some of the photos up when they are released? Does wikinews have rules about pictures of people being killed? Alos what happened to the infobox, etc. - Nyarlathotep 14:57, 5 October 2005 (UTC)

 * We try to keep Wikinews open to all people - no matter age, ethnicity, etc. - so, I would like to ask all users here to not upload any graphic photos (even if fair use) or use extremely profane language in articles (as well as other items that may be extremely offensive to people - such as decapitated persons, pornography, etc.). I just don't want to see Wikinews on public computer blocklists for small items such as this, and to tell the truth - I don't believe they would help the story all that much.  --Mrmiscellanious 20:50, 6 October 2005 (UTC)

 * A vandal blanked the story, he has been blocked and I reverted it back to the version before the vandalism (the one with the infobox etc). While we have no policy on it general consensus here and on pedia is disturbing images should be linked to not included in the story. --Cspurrier 15:48, 5 October 2005 (UTC)

Shouldn't the external links be about this story?
More than half of the external links are not about the release of these photos at all. They are links to old articles about old photos. Since this is an article about the news of new photos being released - and not an encyclopedia article about Abu Grhraib torture photos in general - I think the links that are not about this story should be removed. It would be useful to have an Abu Ghraib category, so that anyone looking for old info about Abu Ghraib could find it easily. No? 85.28.66.218 18:47, 5 October 2005 (UTC)

 * Not sure, some of them are clearly old, but also about these photos. Which ones are not?  - Nyarlathotep 20:02, 5 October 2005 (UTC)

Nyarlathotep's paragraph
The final paragraph is good, however... "The Bush administration claimed that the images would provoke terrorists further." Do we have a source which states this? If not, it is a factual statement which is not supported and must be removed. I suspect it should read "The Bush administration claimed the images might provoke further terrorist actions." But even then it must have a supporting source. - Amgine/talk 21:02, 5 October 2005 (UTC)

 * The AP article say "U.S. District Judge Alvin K. Hellerstein rejected government arguments that the images would provoke terrorists and incite violence against U.S. troops in Iraq." Maybe we should try to resort the sources, with the best ones at the top? - Nyarlathotep 23:35, 5 October 2005 (UTC)
 * Probably. Good call on the source for this statement; I hadn't seen that line. (The AP article is overstating the administration's arguement, imo, since no lawyer would be fool enough to state something would do/cause something.) - Amgine/talk 00:02, 7 October 2005 (UTC)

Develop (once more)
Upon reviewing the content of the article, I removed the quote from the Senator that was made over a year ago because it was not related to the ruling described in the article. In addition, I also removed numerous sources that did not contribute or even relate to the article in question. The quote from the detainee has been removed as well, as there is no consensus to include it and it does not relate to the ruling. --Mrmiscellanious 03:55, 8 October 2005 (UTC)

Minimum wage in United Kingdom increases to £5.05

October 1, 2005

From Saturday, the minimum wage (in the United Kingdom) will be increased to £5.05 (approximately $8.94 USD) which will affect more than a million workers. People aged between 18 and 21 will have a 15p increase to £4.25. Over 21s will be able to get at least £5.05 an hour, up from £4.85.

According to the Low Pay Commission the number of jobs had grown since the minimum wage was introduced in 1999 and so a further increase was necessary. "The increase will see well over a million low-paid workers with more cash in their pockets, many of them women working part-time," Brendan Barber, TUC general secretary, said. "But, as ever, with each minimum wage increase comes the predictable wave of protests from business saying that it cannot afford another rise."

Further increases are expected to happen sometime in the future. In October 2006 the government said an increase for adults should be put to £5.35 and £4.45 for 18-21 year olds. This would have a "serious impact" according to Sir Digby Jones. "The UK is already edging towards the top of the international minimum wage league table."

One great city!
Late afternoon, another day is nearly done. A darker gray is breaking through a lighter one. A thousand sharpened elbows in the underground. That hollow hurried sound of feet on polished floor, and in the Dollar Store the clerk is closing up, and counting Loonies, trying not to say, "I hate Winnipeg." The driver checks the mirror, seven minutes late. The crowded riders' restlessness enunciates that the Guess Who suck, the Jets were lousy anyway. The same route every day. And in the turning lane, someone's stalled again. He's talking to himself, and hears the price of gas repeat his phrase: "I hate Winnipeg." And up above us all, leaning into sky, our Golden Business Boy will watch the North End die, and sing "I love this town," then let his arcing wrecking ball proclaim, "I hate Winnipeg."

Hundreds of lawsuits filed against music sharers in US

October 2, 2005

The Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) has filed 757 lawsuits against people who they alleged illegally shared music online. The vast majority of the lawsuits, 693, are against people who used peer-to-peer file-sharing networks such as eDonkey and LimeWire to exchange music files. Of the remaining lawsuits, 64 are against students at 17 different universities who used the Abilene Network and a peer-to-peer file sharing program called i2hub.

The i2hub program is designed for use in sharing files over the Abilene Network. The Abilene Network is a high speed network in use by 207 U.S. universities. It was designed by Internet2 to provide a high speed alternative for researchers and other educators to share information. The Abilene Network allows for very high speed connections, many times faster than DSL or Cable connections. The RIAA became a corporate member of Internet2 two weeks ago.

Over the past two years, the RIAA has filed more than 14,800 lawsuits against people accused of illegally sharing music online. Over 3,400 of these cases were settled for an average of between $4,000 to $5,000 each. Almost 500 of these lawsuits were against students using the Internet2 network.

Talk:Hundreds of lawsuits filed against music sharers in US

I didn't like the original title. Most people don't know that RIAA means this concerns music in the US. It's true they can get that info from the article, but the title should give them the "gist" of the article without them having to read it. StuRat 01:10, 2 October 2005 (UTC)

 * I don't like the current title -- the article isn't just about "Hundreds of lawsuits", it's abount "Hundreds more lawsuits". It's more like "Thousands of lawsuits"; additionally it's about the RIAA expanding its hunt into the Internet2 network.  The current title fails to sumarize the article. As you say, "the title should give them the "gist" of the article",  and it does not. 07:46, 3 October 2005 (UTC)

 * I believe it is better than the original title, which didn't mention music or the US; but, if you can improve it, please do. StuRat 12:01, 5 October 2005 (UTC)

 * You're probably right, but I haven't learned how to edit headlines yet (Maybe I have to register first). Sorry if I sounded too critical. Karen 10:41, 7 October 2005 (UTC)

 * Ah, the alphabet mafia strikes again. I personally can't wait to see the recording industry bury itself with crap like this. A question regarding the neutrality of this article though. I don't understand the point of mentioning the Internet2/i2hub is mainly used for research purposes. This seems to be implying that the RIAA had no basis for filing suit, which is not the case if they were using campus networks for sharing copywrited material. I think that section should be rewritten, any thoughts? --Wolfrider 21:42, 2 October 2005 (UTC)
 * If you want to, you are of course welcome to rewrite it. I was aiming more to say that the Internet2 was created for research purposes, and the students using it for file sharing are abusing it. Therfor the RIAA has at least some moral justification for suing them. --Cspurrier 21:50, 2 October 2005 (UTC)
 * Okay, I see where you were coming from now. I was just reading it incorrectly. Thanks. :-) --Wolfrider 22:47, 2 October 2005 (UTC)

Santa Ana Volcano Erupts in El Salvador

October 1, 2005

The morning of Saturday the 1st was a tragic one for El Salvador, as the Santa Ana Volcano, the largest and most active volcano in the country began an eruptive phase.

At 8:25 a.m. Santa Ana Volcano's view from Coatepeque Lake changed as a huge flow of "hot mud" flowed from the crater towards the lake. The road that was designed as an evacuation route from that sector of the volcano was blocked completely and the inhabitants of the area had to be evacuated by helicopters.

Minutes after the flow of hot mud was visible from Lake Coatepeque, a huge cloud of ash appeared, which reached an altitude of 50,000 feet, then covering the northwestern part of the country which contains the largest concentration of coffee farms (main export). The local authorities expect that this layer of ash burns the coffee plants of the affected area, decreasing the coffee production of the region considerably.

Along with the ash cloud, a large amount of hot rocks (some reaching three feet in diameter) flew on all directions, damaging roads, homes and vegetation. According to the people living in the surroundings of the volcano, the rocks were released due to the huge amount of pressure released when the ash cloud appeared.

Authorities report the loss of two human lives due to this incident, the cause has not yet been revealed. To prevent the loss of more lives, the government decreed a red alert in a radius of four kilometres of the crater, but yet, some people resist the evacuation proposals due to fear of losing their belongings, as they have to leave their homes without any surveillance. In response to this, the army and the police agreed to patrol the areas evacuated in order to prevent robberies.

It is expected that this incident is only the beginning of a large eruptive process, which may result in a catastrophe for El Salvador.

One killed in University of Oklahoma explosion

October 2, 2005 One person is dead following an explosion that occurred outside a packed University of Oklahoma football stadium Saturday night, where the school was hosting Kansas State University. Authorities are calling the incident a suicide, but it is still under investigation.

The incident occurred shortly before halftime of the Kansas State - OU game. Those inside and outside the stadium heard a "boom," and others reported feeling the blast from blocks away. It occurred near locations of buses parked for the game, and classroom buildings of the university.

Those attending the game were initially told not to leave during halftime, and were later instructed by the public announcement system not to exit on the west and south ends of the stadium. Bomb searches were done in the parking complexes outside the stadium and neighboring accessways around the west side of the stadium. Authorities searched and located at least one other device in the vicinity, and the device was detonated without incident. Areas west of the Gaylord Memorial Stadium have been blocked from access by authorities.

OU President Boren said in a statement that "At no time was anyone in the stadium in danger," and that the incident is being investigated as an apparent individual suicide.

Connecticut becomes third U.S. state to allow same-sex civil unions

October 1, 2005

In the state of Connecticut today, a law allowing civil unions for same-sex couples took effect.

The law is unique; it allows civil unions for same-sex couples with full benefits of a regular marriage, while at the same time defining marriage as between a man and a woman.

Heterosexual couples are not allowed to receive civil unions. The license application will be identical to one for a regular marriage, except "bride" and "groom" are replaced with "party 1" and "party 2."

The Connecticut civil unions law is the first gay marriage law to be passed voluntarily; lawsuits forced fellow New England states Vermont and Massachusetts to allow same-sex unions. Vermont has civil unions while Massachusetts allows actual same-sex marriage. Some localities have recognized same-sex couples in the form of a domestic partnership.

"This is a historic day. We're beyond ecstatic." said Randy Sharp, 46, of Plainville, who was applying for a license with his partner Jeff Blanchette, 44.

Not everyone is happy about the law. Already, opponents are lobbying for an amendment that will ban same-sex marriage. "Today was a sad day for our state. It was a sad day for our state's children." said Brian Brown, executive director of Family Institute of Connecticut. The group held a protest outside the Capitol which was attended by 50 people. Last year eleven states voted on Election Day to prohibit same-sex marriage.

Ulcer researchers awarded '05 Nobel Prize

October 3, 2005

Two Australian researchers, J. Robin Warren and Barry Marshall, are the 2005 winners of the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine for their work in discovering the role of ulcer bacteria in producing digestive ulcers. . They were announced Monday morning in Stockholm, Sweden.

Warren and Marshall will equally share a US$1.3 million cash prize award for discovering "the bacterium Helicobacter pylori and its role in gastritis and peptic ulcer disease." Dr Marshall cultivated the previously unknown bacterial species H. pylori from a study of biopsies from 100 ulcer patients, firmly establishing that gastric disorders are infectious diseases. Before their discovery, peptic ulcer was attributed to stress and lifestyle.

The Nobel Committee has awarded the Nobel Prize in the category 'Physiology or Medicine' since 1901, when Emil Adolf von Behring won for developing a treatment for diphtheria.

The announcement begins a week of Nobel announcements. The Physics and Chemistry awards will be announced Tuesday and Wednesday. The Nobel Peace Prize will be announced Friday.

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 Arbales. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Arbales~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 23:12, 17 March 2015 (UTC)

Fatal blasts rock Bangladesh

October 3, 2005

Two people were killed and 40 others injured in a series of bombings at courts in three districts of Dhaka, Bangladesh today, in an apparent repeat of the nationwide August 17 bombings (in which 3 people were killed and 150 injured), according to police.

One person was killed and five others were injured when a youth hurled a bomb concealed in a book at a court in central Chandpur district. The injured included court officials. In another attack in Luxmipur district, one person was killed and 30 others injured when two youths hurled bombs at a court there, police said. In the third incident, bombs were exploded in three places in southeastern port city of Chittagong injuring at least five others.

An unexploded bomb was found in Mymensingh district, television reports said.

State Minister for Home Affairs Lutfuzzaman Babor was unfazed. "We were prepared and we will face these very confidently," he told reporters "Some arrests were made as we were prepared".

Yesterday, two people were killed and three others were injured in a bomb attack at a tea stall in western Satkhira district.

According to reports, a leaflet was found at the site warning against keeping shops open during the Muslim holy month of Ramadan starting this week.

The Government has arrested dozens of members of the banned Jamatul Mujahedeen Bangladesh (JMB) since then.
