The article says it will be voluntary. And the article you linked to is from 2004; technology has changed a lot in the past 6 years. I for one take comfort in knowing that my kids will have a harder time encountering explicit material than when I grew up.

Knut was four years old. In the wild polar bears have a life expectancy of between 15 and 20 years, while in captivity they can live longer. An autopsy is expected to be performed.

Knut was born in captivity and was raised by humans after his mother rejected him. He first drew attention when caregiver,, temporarily lived at the zoo to be able to give the cub his bottle every two hours. Knut made daily public appearances in which his caregiver cuddled and played with the cub to the pleasure of thousands of visitors. Around the world fan clubs formed, including in the United States, Japan, and Germany. Fans were interested in all aspects of his life, including his battle with gaining weight and plans to relocate to a different zoo.

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 Mithun. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Mithun~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 23:21, 17 March 2015 (UTC)

Thread:Comments:French aircraft on flights over Libya; US missiles launched at targets/Maybe a jump to conclusions. Are the “Allies” sure who the good guys are?

I found a brief summary of it all in The New York Times. Basically, it says: In the U.S. his name is still spelled Muammar el-Qaddafi (at least by The New York Times). And, the U.K. and U.S. governments have opposed him for years for being a socalist and too tough. He has been accused of terrorist attacks, and the the U.K. and U.S. bombed and killed innocent Libyans in response to the accusations, accusations which were denied by Qaddafi. Also, under Reagan the U.S. began training Libyan troops to overthrow him.

Also, Muammar el-Qaddafi came to power when he overthrew the United Kingdom of Libya in 1969, which was established after the French and the British controlled Libya following WWII. Qaddafi established the Libyan Arab Republic. He supported the Palestine Liberation Organization, against the theft of of land by the UN in Canaan to establish a modern Israel. He also supported the use of oil prices for Arab self-defense. He nationalized Libyan banks and the oil industry and required businesses in Libya be owned by Lybyans.

In February of 2011, demonstrators waving the flag of the United Kingdom of Libya seized the city of Benghazi and got support from England, France and then the United States, because President Gadhafi responded using the military rather than the police because the rebels were taking over cities. .

On 19 March 2011 UK, the US and France fired on people in vehicles in Libya. The Cruise missiles were from the US.

This seems to be a struggle against Libyan isolationism, since Libya had a king before Qaddafi, or an attempt to establish the republic he promised. Personally, I don’t understand how capitalism works, because of the business cycle. Also, maybe some workers think they would rather work for a republic than for some rich family. I see nothing wrong with being on welfare and think a capitalist state could be run without taxes, by considering money to be a government asset.69.3.114.87 (talk) 04:44, 20 March 2011 (UTC)

Comments:Toyota quits Formula One

Toyota`s withdrawal from Formula 1 is a pity, as an avid TOYOTA fan, I was following Toyota`s progress on the F1 circuit. I`ve always maintained that Toyota will be slow moving up in the ranks, but knowing Toyota as a manufacturer, they will learn from the mistakes of the the other teams and get it right eventually And I was Confidant that they then would be the standard and limit other teams will have to set their sights to for a long time to come.However, I still believe it is in their power to do so, the "CRUNCH" can only last for so long, and TOYOTA has a reputation to uphold. I`m waiting expectantly to hear of Toyota`s return to F1 and all of it`s achievements on the circuits.

House fire in Bristol, England kills two

March 20, 2011

A house fire in Bristol, England has caused the deaths of two brothers, identified as Charlie, aged five, and seven-year-old Mackenzie. Emergency services were called to the scene in the early hours of Saturday morning.

The bodies were discovered by, at the scene in the suburb of around 0630. and services were also in attendance. Prior to their arrival, three other children and two adults escaped from the building in Merryweather Close through windows.

Speaking on behalf of, manager William Roberts explained: "When crews arrived, the fire was fully developed and engulfing the first floor and roof space. Sadly, when crews entered the building they found the children. They were both upstairs, one in back bedroom, one in front. It is a sad day for the Bradley Stoke community and Avon fire. The ceiling has fallen in on itself and on top of our evidence. This is probably the worst fire I've seen in my 32 years."

According to Roberts, smoke alarms were in the building, however the damage was "so extensive" that it is uncertain as to whether or not they were functioning correctly. "A full investigation has been launched by the police and fire investigators. No formal identification has yet taken place," 's Detective Sergeant Simon Chubb stated.

Thread:Comments:ICANN approves .xxx domain for pornography/.xxx is a really dumb idea... but not for the reasons given/reply (2)

They won't though. The reasons explained in RFC 3675 are still valid today. Either the filtering will be completely ineffective or it may actually allow one to confuse filtering software by creating phony A records. If filtering software just filters requests to .xxx domains, it is trivially easy to retrieve the IP address of the server from a third-party source and send a request that way, ignoring the DNS altogether. This is why when Wikileaks lost their domain, you could still access it using their IP address.

If it filters by IP and just uses the .xxx zone files to know where to find 'naughty' IPs, then there is a trivial attack one can do: you register a .xxx domain and point it to a third-party site you want to get filtered even though it isn't pornography. Someone will do this and a legitimate site like, I dunno, wikipedia.org or whitehouse.gov will become inaccessible because someone has pointed an unrelated .xxx domain at it.

Trust me, the more you think about .xxx, the sillier it gets. I've been thinking about it since it was first mooted and it really is ridiculous.

The European Court of Human Rights in Strasbourg is NOT an EU Court. It is a court of the Council of Europe, a separate organisation from the European Union, with different membership. 'European' court, rather than 'EU' court would be more accurate.

Could this be edited, as this is a common mistake and quite a harmful one.

Haiti votes in presidential runoff

March 21, 2011

Voters in Haiti are going  to the polls today  to vote for  the country's  next. The election follows months of political turmoil after  the corrupt first round election in November caused a crisis requiring international intervention.

Haiti is still struggling to recover from the devastating January 2010 earthquake, with about one million people remaining in squalid, temporary shelters and a recent   which threatens to break out again with the return of the rainy season. Observers are hoping the new president will restore enough  stability so rebuilding efforts can begin with international help.

In Haiti’s first round of balloting in November, names were missing from voter rolls, ballot boxes were stuffed or trashed, voters were blocked from the precincts by supporters of candidates, among other irregularities. Haitians rioted, plunging the process into chaos that was quelled by the determined efforts of foreign monitors.

Out of the original 19 candidates, two remained after the first round:, age 70, a sedate, reserved university professor and wife of former president , and pop star "Sweet Micky" Martelly, age 50, who the described as being "a popular  singer [...] famous for dropping his pants on stage, mooning audiences, and dressing in  — or sometimes a diaper."

However, Martelly has waged an energetic, well financed campaign with pink campaign posters picturing his smiling face and bald head, cultivating a  image with  Haiti’s  poor. He has been successful at marketing himself as an unpretentious outsider who will shake up the political system and yank the country out of its paralysis. At the same time, he has courted the upper class with a platform containing pro-business promises and support for the return of the.

The sedate personality of Manigat contrasts starkly with that of Martelly. She portrays herself as a dignified, mature mother figure able to nurture Haiti through its troubles.

The determining factor may be the popular former president, who returned two days ago to Haiti from South America after seven years in exile. Aristide has not endorsed either candidate, but Aristide supporters, among those Haitians most desperately poor, have voiced support for Manigat. Upon Aristide's arrival, there were banners saying, "My mother is here already. Welcome home Father", according to The Washington Post.

Pierre-Marie Boisson, a private-sector economist in Haiti, sees the candidates as having similar platforms, promising jobs, housing and free education, even if their personal styles are so different. "They have both promised the moon to the voters," he said. He noted that this puts tremendous pressure on the winner to produce results quickly in a world where the price of food and fuel is rising.

As voting concluded, despite some irregularities such as missing ballots and  late starts, authorities concluded  the voting went well, without the pervasive  fraud that marked the November election. Colin Granderson, head of (OAS) observer mission, said the runoff election was a great improvement over the previous one.

The final results will be announced on April 16.

AT&T to purchase T-Mobile for US$39 billion

March 21, 2011

has announced that it will purchase for US$39 billion. The move will make AT&T the largest cellular carrier in the United States. It was announced Sunday by both, the owner of T-Mobile, and by AT&T. According to industry analysts, the deal was made to allow the two companies to compete with. Earlier in the week, T-Mobile employees hinted at a possible merger with, another cellular company. In the proposed deal, Deutsche Telekom will receive a board seat and a 8% stake in the merged company.

The merger is expected to complete after government regulatory departments approve it due to. The sale would reduce the number of significant carriers in the US from four to three and is expected to close fully in about one year. In December 2010, T-Mobile reported a base of 34 million customers, AT&T had 95 million, and Verizon reported 94 million. A conference call on the deal is scheduled for EDT 8 AM Monday.

The move will to allow up to 95% of United States citizens access to a  cellular network. Both AT&T and T-Mobile use the standard (short for Global System for Mobile Communications) for their networks. Additionally, the popular smartphone from Apple Inc. will eventually arrive for T-Mobile subscribers; Verizon became the second carrier to sell the iPhone in the US February.

AT&T Chairman and CEO Randall Stephenson released a statement and said, “This transaction represents a major commitment to strengthen and expand critical infrastructure for our nation’s future. It will improve network quality, and it will bring advanced LTE capabilities to more than 294 million people. Mobile broadband networks drive economic opportunity everywhere, and they enable the expanding high-tech ecosystem that includes device makers, cloud and content providers, app developers, customers, and more. During the past few years, America’s high-tech industry has delivered innovation at unprecedented speed, and this combination will accelerate its continued growth.”

In response to the move, Gartner analyst Phillip Redman said, "Bigger is better in a commodity game. Four providers were too many. This may help Sprint as it becomes the standalone low-cost provider, and it makes more sense than a Sprint-T-Mobile deal."

Egyptian voters approve constitutional changes

March 22, 2011

In a held Saturday, Egyptians  voted overwhelmingly to amend the nation's constitution immediately, moving  Egypt closer to a, according to results announced today.

Electoral officials said 77% of voters endorsed a set of  that included  limiting presidential terms, removing limitations on forming, and holding  a  within six months.

Many of the mostly protest leaders who headed the revolution leading to President Hosni Mubarak's resignation were opposed to the amendments, not wanting to hold elections so quickly. Mohamed ElBaradei, winner of the Nobel Peace Prize, said the nation needed more political maturity before holding elections so soon. Leaders of Egypt's Coptic Orthodox Church also were against the amendments.

The Muslim Brotherhood, an Islamist group previously banned under Mubarak's rule, and the, Mubarak's ruling party, were almost alone in supporting the amendments. Each hoped that its strong organization would give it an advantage in electing the parliament members who will write the new constitution.

Approximately 18 million people, 41% of those eligible, voted, according to electoral officials. This is in contrast to parliamentary elections held four months ago, when the turnout was only six million.

Although there were some problems at the voting places, observers said these were mostly due to the military's hasty preparations, not wrongdoing by officials. Opposition leader Mohammed ElBaradei was prevented from voting by men throwing stones in the worst incidence of sporadic violence.

The results were met with jubilation by Egyptians; in Cairo, horns were honked and fireworks set off. The elections are considered the first in decades not rigged in favor of one party.

"It's not important what the result is, it's important that it was fair," said a revolutionary leader, Abdul Rahman Yusuf.

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 Antinoe2002. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Antinoe2002~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 23:11, 17 March 2015 (UTC)

Thread:Comments:Crucifixes can be displayed in state schools, European court rules/Comments from feedback form - "Display crucifixes in schools ..."

Display crucifixes in schools issue is a moral issue. If more children are in class, Hebrew, Japanese, Russians, Americans, Germans, Italians, etc.. if you put a crucifix, children of other religions or ethnic culture will be discrimination.I no agree with major interference of religious symbols in schools. At school children learn the curriculum approved and the church can pray to the having saints .Off corse because complement school education with religious education is ok to be moral and religious classes and religious instruction in the master classes. But only children over 12 years, only with the written consent of parents.

I don't get how this is acceptable either. Public schools, as they are called in the States, cannot do this, apart from studying different religions. Unless it is a religious/private school, this isn't ethical imho.

Thread:Comments:US and UK forces join Libyan attack/Odyssey Dawn...

Really? Odyssey as in the story about a Greek who leaves his home to get involved in a war that doesn't really have anything to do with him, spends 10 years in a prolonged conflict and then another 10 years trying to pull out? Is this a bad joke or the most unfortunate name for a military operation ever?

Existing US home sales fall 9.6% in February

March 21, 2011 Sales of existing homes in the U.S. fell 9.6% in February, the  (NAR) said today, in a sign that the U.S. housing market is still. The figure was worse than the 3.9% decline anticipated by the economists surveyed by    and questions whether the  U.S. housing market is beginning to recover  or will continue to fall.

A combination of s and, where the mortgage holder sells the house for less than owed on the , accounted for almost 40% of the  sales.

Millions of foreclosures have forced down home prices and the number of foreclosures are predicted to rise this year. The inventory of existing homes listed for sale rose 3.5% at the end of February, a 8.6-month supply at the current sales rate. As more homes are listed in the spring, the inventory of houses for sale will probably increase. A five or six month inventory is usually considered a healthy balance between.

According to, another 3.6 million bank-owned homes and possible foreclosures will be added to the inventory by 2013, adding to the 6.7 million home foreclosures since 2006. Thus housing inventories will probably continue to remain high, delaying the point when prices stabilize. The median sales price in February fell 5.2%, down to a price level not seen since  April 2002.

"We have an uneven, choppy recovery," said NAR's chief economist. "Hopefully it is a recovery that is taking place."

'Worst song of all time' becomes YouTube sensation

March 23, 2011

, a song by US teen singer, has gone viral after the song's music video was uploaded onto video sharing website YouTube. The video has attracted over thirty-five million views since its February 10 upload — and critics think it could be the world's worst.

produced the song and video, using US$2,000 (1,223, 1,964, €1,412) from Black's mother. Friday's video was shot at Black's father's house, with her family and friends as extras. The song beat an alternative track when choosing what to record.

The single is climbing up the singles chart in the United Kingdom and the United States, gaining a higher position in the US than Canadian singer Justin Bieber.

Despite the song's popularity, it has received a largely negative reception. According to, critics have cited Friday as being "the worst song of all time." On YouTube, the video attracted approximately thirty-six thousand 'likes' versus over 314,000 'dislikes'. The song itself has been ridiculed for its lyrics and criticised for its use of.

Feeling "like [she was] being cyber-bullied," Rebecca Black said "[w]hen I first saw all these nasty comments I thought this is all my fault, ... this was all because of me." Black says of "[t]hose hurtful comments", the worst was "I hope you cut yourself and I hope you get an eating disorder so you look pretty. I hope you cut and die." Clarence Jey, of Ark Music Factory, offered to take the video off YouTube, but Black declined.

In contrast, British music executive has expressed a positive interest in Rebecca Black. "I love her and the fact she's gotten so much publicity," Cowell commented. "People are so upset about the song, but I think it's hysterical. I want to meet her. Anyone who can create this much controversy within a week, I want to meet. I love people like that."

Rebecca Black herself wants to record a duet with Justin Bieber. "I have Bieber fever — I am in love with Justin Bieber," Black commented. The teenager said it "would be unbelievable and make my life".

why do people read Wikinews?
I am conducting a research project for George Mason University on wikis. With all the media outlets available why do people come to read other's articles here?

Thanks! --Msimon313 (talk) 18:32, 7 March 2011 (UTC)

 * Wikinews tries to distinguish itself from the MSM by being as objective and unbiased as possible (due to our neutrality policy). Additionally, our content is free to reuse. Granted, our coverage is not nearly as comprehensive as most mainstream news sources, nor always updated in a timely manner, so those advantages are somewhat offset. Tempodivalse [talk]  18:44, 7 March 2011 (UTC)

 * Wikinews does not just do "others' news". Where it does, there is usually an attempt to be more comprehensive in our coverage. However, some reports are wholly, or substantially feature, original reporting. --Brian McNeil / talk 22:26, 7 March 2011 (UTC)

 * Wikinews is also a strictly factual news source; we do not engage in news analysis or speculation. When Wikinews (WN) cites historical precedent, it is done for purely contextual reasons, i.e. not to imply an opinion or to predict the future. --Ashershow1talk 00:23, 8 March 2011 (UTC)

 * /me wonders if we're really the best people to ask. We as author's probably have a different notion of why people come here, then the actual people do (Not to mention highly idealized given the responses so far). Bawolff ☺☻ 02:42, 8 March 2011 (UTC)

 * Wikinews articles are available for posterity. We get comments on news articles from years ago. Other media sources online do not keep their archives available online without a fee, so our articles are linked to as permanent records. -  Amgine | t 03:33, 8 March 2011 (UTC)

International Womens' Day
I wrote this article last weeK, Labor employees celebrate International Women’s Day. It didn't get reviewed for days, then got tagged as stale. I think the evenbt was newsworthy. The writing could be approved, but the argument that is stale doesn't make sense. When I wrote it, it wasn't stale. It's about a one day event.

Can someone else please weigh in? Evrik (talk) 12:18, 17 March 2011 (UTC)

 * The article would need a little more work to pass all-but-freshness review. If it can be brought up to peer-reviewable quality, I'd like to see a direct-to-archive-publish on this.  While there is currently no policy provision for "late review", there is preliminary discussion underway to make provision for it.
 * I wouldn't trust the EPR gadget with this, because we don't want the article accidentally piped out to GNews etc. A single manual edit to both archive and publish at one stroke (or click) would seem in order.
 * The suggestion I've floated is that a late-reviewed article should be dated to its freshness horizon rather than to the date of publication. For this article, that would be March 11, 2011.

WIKINEWS: A big disappointment
I have not written for Wikinews before but have been involved with writing news on a freelance basis for over ten years and have followed the Fukushima emergency quite closely. I noticed that Wikinews had as its Lead Article a flatly incorrect story http://en.wikinews.org/wiki/Power_line_to_Japanese_nuclear_plant_completed That was not WIkinew's fault, there had been a false report issued internationally. But to correct that I wrote and posted the sourced story http://en.wikinews.org/wiki/IAEA_Clarifies:_Fukushima_nuclear_cable_has_not_been_completed

with three sources. As of this writing, almost twenty four hours later,the earlier, incorrect report, sits on Wikinews without correction and the story I wrote has not been approved nor has it in its current form been reviewed. This is a ridiculous state of affairs.

The objection is that one of the original sources, the live video feed from Japanese TV, cannot be verified. But obviously an old nvideo feed which is in the past can never be reviewed with apodictic certainty. The purpose of putting that citation in the sources was not for later reviewers to ponder, itt was to show that I was monitoring the news up to the minute.

Obviously that was not helpful and so I replaced that sourcing with a link to the NISA website.

Another newer reporter lamented this sae stated of affairs on my Talk page but apparently he is not a reviewer and cannot approve the article.

This is my first article at Wikinews, or rather first attempt, and the way things look it may be the last. For a flatly incorrect version of events to sit as the lead article while a corrected updated story on the same news story is not very inspiring. I don't know if the story will ever see the light of day but I feel as though the process has been a waste of time in a situation where time is of the essence. The whole point of the internet is that decisions can be made quickly and this slow-as-molasses processing is very disheartening. Geofferybard (talk) 23:01, 19 March 2011 (UTC)
 * Wikinews currently does not have the man power to review articles in a momentary fashion. I, however, am a reviewer and will look into your article immediately.  In the meantime I would encourage you to be patient, and if in the future you have any other concerns about the timeliness or accuracy of an article, alert an administrator. --Ashershow1talk 23:33, 19 March 2011 (UTC)
 * It looks as though several editors have taken an interest in your article and there were problems with it that prevented its publication. I would refrain from blaming that all on Wikinews. --Ashershow1talk 23:43, 19 March 2011 (UTC)
 * Hi, thanks for your comments Geofferybard. Unfortunately, long review times are one of the project's biggest problems. Long waits for publishing, such as the one you described, have become the norm rather than the exception. We are, however, looking at abolishing the current requirement for articles to be peer-reviewed, to allow for more prompt publication of news. Tempodivalse [talk]  00:28, 20 March 2011 (UTC)
 * Tempo, you're failing to see your own biases. --Pi zero (talk) 13:18, 20 March 2011 (UTC)
 * Back on line after several days in which I noticed that the electrical cabling was not established for many days after the erroneous report which stood front and center on wikipedia. This means that the story I wrote, which cited NISA and IAEA, continued to be timeley and relevant. It was again reviewed, http://en.wikinews.org/wiki/Talk:Fukushima_nuclear_cable_has_not_been_completed,_IAEA_clarifies#Review_of_revision_1198385_.5BFailed.5D and, to my amazement, "failed" on the basis that these sources did not establish "verifiability" and that they were (somehow prejudiced by the fact that) they were "secondary". In other words, if I cited Joe Blow's Blog in the Blogosphere, that would have been acceptable, but if I cite the official press release of the pertinent Japanese ministry, that publicly available, web-published source is somehow deemed "unverifiable". Honestly, Wikinews just flatly fell on its face; the remedy is administrative acknowledgement of the failure and a remedial plan of action to prevent similar dysfunction in the future.

 * A second, almost incomprehensible failing was that the article was deemed "failed on copyright" because it had "already been published". Give me a break. After wasting so much time trying to deal with irrelevant objections and radio silence from the reviewers, I posted the article on Japan Indymedia under a CCA license. Given that I had myself previously submit to WIkinews, disclosed the simultaneous submission, never withdrew the WIkinews submission, and published under CCA, to suggest that state of affairs as a basis for rejection on the basis of "Copyright" is ludicrous. Copyright protects the creator, which would be myself, under the terms I deemed, which was Creative Commons. Looks like Wikinews is definitely not going to be the place for quality alternative journalists, going forward - unless it can reform its process. Reviewing this case would be a good place to start. In the meantime, you should understand that I am surprised that anyone would suggest that I collaborate on any further reporting for Wikinews, a proposal which I must reject. Wikinews needs to decide whether it is more interested in being a reserve of online editorial power for its old guard or whether it wants to be a cutting edge resource for live journalism today and tommorow. IMO, Wikinews is locked in a yesterday that never really was much more than a good idea that never really got off the ground. And probably never will. Geofferybard (talk) 23:12, 24 March 2011 (UTC)

There has not been a sports-related item on Wikinews in several days. Surely there was an important badminton, handball, cricket or even basketball event in the last week.

"...argued that the crucifix was a cultural symbol, and a part of Europe's culture and history."

Maybe jewish or pagan symbols would be fine then, but not all other symbols. How are, for example, hindu or islamic symbols part of Europe's culture? I don't think that blowing up Europeans makes something part of European culture.

Blues musician Pinetop Perkins dies at age 97

March 22, 2011

American blues musician, a first generation , died in Austin, Texas, Texas, on Monday at the age of 97. His death was announced by his agent, Hugh Southard. Perkins suffered from a cardiac arrest as he took a nap and paramedics failed resuscitate him. During his 80-year career Perkins remained active until the end, even performing publicly as recently as last month.

A piano player, he was a guitarist until a knife fight damaged his left arm. He was primarily a. Throughout his career he worked with several big names including, and slide guitarist. He worked for  for more than a decade, including playing on Muddy's great comeback albums of the late 1970s. He was 75 before an album was released under his own name.

Perkins also made history this year by becoming the oldest winner. He won the best traditional blues album at February's ceremony for his album, .

Tributes have been paid to Perkins. Southard said "That drive to keep playing the blues kept is what kept him alive." He also commented on Perkins' simple lifestyle saying "Two cheeseburgers, apple pie, a cigarette and a pretty girl was all he wanted."

Perkins was born in in 1913 in Mississippi and grew up on a plantation there. In a 2008 interview in  he said, "I grew up hard. I picked cotton and plowed with the mule and fixed the cars and played with the guitar and the piano. What I learned I learned on my own. I didn’t have much school. Three years."

He left behind no family and will be buried in his hometown of Belzoni, Mississippi. He had been living with an associate in Austin since 2004.

Gene mutation produces autism-like traits in mice

March 23, 2011

By causing the  of one specific, researchers have produced mice with two frequently encountered behavioral  traits of persons diagnosed with autism. Autism commonly affects the ability to interact socially and is associated with. The finding was reported in the March 20 online edition of. Using mice, researchers at the (MIT) and  mutated one of the genes associated with autism, known as, a gene that controls the production of the shank3 protein present in the brain. Mice that were given this mutation exhibited repetitive behavior and avoided social interactions with the mice around them.

According to MIT Professor Guoping Feng: "Our study demonstrated that Shank3 mutation in mice lead to defects in neuron-neuron communications." Shank3 protein are found in  within the brain. Synapses allow brain cells (called ) to communicate with each other. The mutation in the mouse gene interfered with this communication, apparently producing the subsequent autism-like traits. Researchers believe their work demonstrates the important role of shank3 in the functioning of brain circuits that determine behavior.

While hundreds of genes have been linked to autism in human patients, only a small percentage have been linked to shank3. Professor Feng hypothesizes that  disruptions of other genes that act on the production of brain proteins affecting synaptic communication may also be related to autistic behavior. If this disruption is real, Feng claims that treatments could be developed to correct synaptic function for any defective synaptic protein in an autistic  patient.

Feng continued; "These findings and the mouse model now allow us to figure out the precise neural circuit defects responsible for these abnormal behaviours, which could lead to novel strategies and targets for developing treatment."

About one in 110 children in the U.S., and at least one in 100 in UK, have been diagnosed with an, for which there is currently no effective cure.

Water cooler
I have replied to the question you asked on the Water cooler. -  Amgine | t 04:36, 4 April 2011 (UTC)

 * Hi, B.j Shepherd. I'm afraid there were some failures of communications about how Wikinews works.  Maybe I can clarify some; sorry if I'm wrong about some of your thinking on this.  Hopefully this will help you get started on Wikinews; we know there's a steep learning curve here, and we want to help.
 * A Wikinews article is not simply submitted by a single author and then accepted.
 * It may initially be written mainly by one author, but this is a wiki, and other contributors may also help to improve it. (Just to be clear on that.)
 * It must be rigorously peer reviewed by an authorized reviewer, and may either pass or fail review. If it fails, the problems that caused failure are identified by the review template on the article talk page, and the article needs to be improved to (attempt to) fix the identified problems before resubmitting it for review.
 * Your article received a failing review; it's possible you might have missed that, since the redirect to another article (see below) was added shortly thereafter. The failing review template admittedly did not have the sort of useful explanations on it that ideally it would have had.
 * One of the requirements for a Wikinews article to be published is that, at the time of publication, new information must have come to light within at most 2–3 days (and the news event itself has to have been within 7 days).
 * Your article was about an event that took place about three days before you wrote the article; and the sources were from then too, so there was no new information that came to light later.
 * There was a Wikinews article about the same news event already published two days before your article was written.
 * --Pi zero (talk) 06:05, 4 April 2011 (UTC)

These edits...
Take account of one of the points on which this article was failed the first time. Regrettably, it was not the most important point. Please, to start with, refrain from marking something for review when you obviously know it isn't (and prove that with near-immediate substantial edits). Note there is no such country as "Yemeni", and correct the Random capitalisation - should you wish to resubmit this article. --Brian McNeil / talk 17:21, 10 April 2011 (UTC)

I just saw the story about the beer on the news the other day. I'll follow it up I myself live in Australia. This story has to be over two weeks old now!

Guatemalan president and first lady apply for divorce

March 27, 2011

According to judicial spokesman Edwin Escobar,, president of Guatemala, and , the first lady, have applied for a divorce. It is said that the couple, who have been married for eight years, have done so so that Torres can apply for presidency.

The couple applied for divorce on March 11, Escobar said. He says the couple have given mutual consent and did not reveal the names of their lawyers.

Presidential spokesman Giusseppe Calvinisti has denied having any information about the planned divorce.

Before Escobar made the announcement, opposition leader Roxanna Baldetti had warned that the couple were planning to split to let Torres run for the presidency. Many political observers believe the couple filed their request so that Torres can stand to succeed her husband when his term ends in September, as the Guatemalan constitution does not allow close relatives of the president to do so.

Comments on the divorce have ranged from 'unthinkable' to 'a fraud', the latter description by candidate. According to Perez, the divorce will not let the Torres run for presidency. "The law does not state a time frame of when a person ceases to be a relative of the President."

The in Guatemala, the highest legal authority that determines the legitimacy of a presidential candidate, is to be taken over by new members in April. Legal experts doubt the impartiality of the new judges. They noticed 'ominous signs of political pressures' that would cause them to defend partisan interests rather than uphold justice.
