One dead after jet crashes into airport in Rwanda

November 14, 2009 A passenger jet in the African country of Rwanda crashed into a VIP lounge at an airport on Thursday, officials have said, killing one person. The aircraft involved was a CRJ-100 with Rwandair, leased from the Kenyan Jetlink airline.

The director general of Rwanda's Civil Aviation Authority, Richard Masozera, told media that the pilot of the aircraft reported a problem two minutes after takeoff and requested to land. The flight had been due to take its fourteen passengers to Uganda.

"He landed safely on the runway and was guided by the marshals into the parking area. For some unexplained reason, the plane, from the parking spot, took off again at full power and [...] took a right turn, unexplained, into the technical building," Masozera said. He added that emergency services reacted quickly to the incident, but one of the people on board the plane was hurt and died of injures.

The acting chief executive of the airline, Jack Elk, suggested that the jet might have "auto-accelerated" and crashed into the building. "The captain could not control it. The plane did not get airborne again, it taxied into the building," he said, noting that the black boxes from the plane's cockpit would be analysed by the authorities. "The captain was taken to the hospital with a broken leg. He has not been able to give us any information so far."

Rwandair CEO Gerald Zirimuabagabo commented that the jet had had technical difficulties in the recent past. On Wednesday, it reportedly made an emergency landing in Nairobi, Kenya over concerns that its generator may have malfunctioned. However, Zirimuabagabo didn't say if the technical fault was corrected by mechanics.

The CEO added that an investigation into the incident was launched, and Rwandair's two remaining Jetlink-leased aircraft would be suspended, reducing the airline's fleet to only one operating jet.

Non-industrial emissions key for meeting Kyoto targets in Europe

November 16, 2009 The (EEA) released a report which shows that the European Union is on track to meet their Kyoto Protocol commitments to limit and reduce emissions responsible for the  on our earth.

The five member states France, Germany, Greece, Sweden and the United Kingdom have already reached the target. All other member states, except Austria, which has to strengthen its efforts, expect to reach the target, too.

EEA Executive Director Professor Jacqueline McGlade said: "It is encouraging that Europe's climate-changing emissions are expected to continue decreasing, outperforming the objectives set by the Kyoto Protocol. Such an accomplishment should encourage all countries to agree on much larger reductions of global emissions, sealing a global deal in Copenhagen this December. Commitments to deep emission cuts are urgently needed to preserve our chances to keep planetary temperature increases below 2ºC."

Bomb blast kills at least eleven in Pakistan, over twenty wounded

November 14, 2009 Pakistani police said today that a suicide car bombing has killed at least eleven people and wounded more than twenty others, in the latest attack in the northwestern city of Peshawar.

Officials reported that the bomber set off the explosives at a police checkpoint, and added that two police officers are among the dead.

"At least eleven people have been killed and 26 others wounded," said Sahibzada Anis, the Peshawar district administration chief, to the Agence France-Presse news agency.

According to the man in charge of the checkpoint, Malik Jehangir, he noticed a black car across the barrier and asked security officers to check it. "I saw that there was some argument between the driver and the policeman and suddenly a blast downed me with shrapnel piercing my shoulder," he said, as quoted by Al Jazeera.

The bombing came a day after a suicide bomber struck the Peshawar office of Pakistan's Inter-Services Intelligence (ISI) agency, killing ten people. That blast caused a large portion of the three-story ISI building to collapse.

Terrorist Attack?
How is this not a terrorist attack? Well I guess the story has to develop before we can know more, the captain hasn't even said anything yet due to the broken leg but it is a possibility of a terrorist attack. -Pekayer11 (talk) 16:40, 14 November 2009 (UTC)

 * There's a vague possibility, but "How is this not a terrorist attack?" is somewhat absurd. It's not like a car, where accelerator movement is pretty much a prerequisite. A bad surge on the left engine would produce the effect described. Blood Red Sandman  (Talk)   (Contribs) 16:44, 14 November 2009 (UTC)

 * I guess so, but still I find it hard to believe that a pilot would not be able to hit an emergency brake but I'm not an expert on planes. -Pekayer11 (talk) 16:50, 14 November 2009 (UTC)

 * That's something - as you said - that we'll just have to wait for. How much time did they have? I will agree that it's a bit odd. Blood Red Sandman  (Talk)   (Contribs) 16:53, 14 November 2009 (UTC)

 * Their are many things that could go wrong with a plane, it's so odd. I remember seeing a show about how one type of plane would just suddenly shut off and do a bottle nose drop. It happened to be cold hydraulic fluid, but that's how complicated planes are. One thing wrong and the whole things goes kablam! -Pekayer11 (talk) 04:56, 15 November 2009 (UTC)

NASA mission finds water on the Moon

November 14, 2009 "The argument that the moon is a dry, desolate place no longer holds water," says a press release from NASA. A Moon mission launched by the agency has confirmed the presence of water on the moon. The discovery comes a year after a NASA instrument on an Indian lander indicated there were water molecules on the surface of our satellite.

On September 24, 2008 the had stated  had discovered water based on readings from NASA's, one of eleven instruments carried by the probe. Those results indicated water was widespread in low quantities. That probe, launched in October 2008, had to be abandoned on August 30 when contact was lost with it on the Moon's surface.

The new mission, called, consisted of two separate spacecraft which travelled the 250,000 miles together in June before separating. An empty rocket slammed into the crater, near the southern pole, while a small spacecraft stayed behind to take measurements from the plume of debris thrown up, although it too ultimately crashed into Cabeus. Across the United States people spent the night on lawns and in parks hoping to see the impact, on the 40th anniversary of the first Apollo Moon landing, but it was invisible to the naked eye. NASA had predicted a visible six-mile plume; the reality was only a mile high.

The twin impacts on October 9 are now known to have sent 25 gallons of water ice and vapour into the air amongst the debris kicked up from the 60 to 100 foot wide hole produced by the rocket. This amount only accounts for the debris scientists could actually see over the rim, and the remaining debris could contain more water. It is unclear how much water may be distributed across the Moon, although at the poles suggests water ice there.

LCROSS stands for lunar crater observation and sensing satellite, which was the satellite's name, while its rocket companion was called Centaur. It took a month to analyse the data from the mission, and efforts are ongoing to determine the composition of the remaining material kicked up out the crater. The whole project cost $75 million.

"We got more than just whiff. We practically tasted it with the impact," said project co-investigator Peter H Schultz. The material thrown up split into a curtain travelling sideways and a plume that passed the crater's rim, bringing it into the sunlight for the first time in billions of years. Both contained water. "We are ecstatic," said project leader Anthony Colaprete. "We didn't find just a little bit, we found a significant amount."

Michael Wargo, who heads up lunar research for NASA, said "We're unlocking the mysteries of our nearest neighbour and by extension the solar system. It turns out the moon harbours many secrets, and LCROSS has added a new layer to our understanding." It is thought that by analysing the water we can learn of the moon's history, in a fashion similar to investigating Earth history with ice cores.

physicist Robert Park cautioned that people should not assume that water on the lunar surface would support a colony. "They've haven't found a big reservoir of it," he said. "I suspect this is just water clinging to the soil particles."

Buzz Aldrin, one of the first to walk on the Moon when he followed pioneer Neil Armstrong out of, said he was pleased by the news but added that "People will overreact to this news and say, 'Let's have a water rush to the moon.' It doesn't justify that." Aldrin wants the US to aim to colonise Mars, but NASA is looking at more lunar trips. Last month a new rocket was tested, and Barack Obama has set up a panel to look at possible Moon missions. George W. Bush had previously proposed a $100 billion programme to put more astronauts onto the Moon. NASA wants to return by 2020 and build a lunar base, allowing astronauts to remain for months at a time.

Four teenagers killed in car crash in Birmingham, England

November 14, 2009

Four teenage boys are dead after a car crash in Birmingham, England. The collision, which occurred at around 0345 GMT in the suburb of Moseley, involved four boys crashing a blue Rover into a wall on Salisbury Road. The ages of the adolescents are reported as 15, 16, and 17; the age of the fourth teenager is unconfirmed. All four died at the scene.

"Police can confirm three of the boys in the car were 17, 15 and 16 years old," the West Midlands Police said in a statement. "The age of the fourth boy is yet to be confirmed. All four occupants of the car died at the scene. A police car in the area at the time was flagged down by a member of the public, who heard the collision take place. Officers responded to the incident immediately."

The car itself is not believed to have been stolen. "Crews arrived to find a car which had been in a significant collision with a wall," a spokesperson for the West Midlands Ambulance Service said. "The four occupants of the car all suffered serious multiple injuries in the crash. Unfortunately nothing could be done to save the men and they were all confirmed dead at the scene."

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 Pamela. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Pamela~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 23:20, 17 March 2015 (UTC)

UN: one billion hungry people in the world

November 14, 2009 The United Nations' World Food Program (WFP) said today that for the first time in history, the number of hungry people worldwide will exceed one billion.

The huge number of people facing food insecurity has prompted the UN organization to appeal to individuals for the first time. The WFP launched the Billion for a Billion online campaign today, in an effort to get one billion people living in the developed world to give one euro (US$1.50) a week to the campaign.

WFP Executive Director Josette Sheeran commented that donor governments have supported WFP efforts in the past, but they cannot be expected to do so anymore because of the financial pressure they are facing in the worldwide economic downturn. She said that the WFP was projected to make only $3.7 billion in donations, about half of the $6.7 billion it had targeted for 2009.

"We now have hunger galloping ahead — over a billion people now for the first time in history — and because of the financial pressure on governments we think it's really important now to call on the citizens of the world to help solve this problem directly," Sheeran told the Reuters news agency in an interview.

Sheeran noted the rise in the number of hungry people was partially due to increasing prices in the developing world following a food crisis in 2007–08. The WFP's resources are stretched due to many crises worldwide, such as violence in Pakistan, drought in eastern Africa, and flooding in Southeast Asia. The organisation can thus provide only limited assistance to those in need.

"The problem at the moment is that WFP probably has ten or twelve acute emergencies on its hands, each one complex, each one with its own compelling situation [...] We are cutting rations," Sheeran told Reuters.

Sheeran made the online campaign announcement ahead of the World Food Summit beginning on Monday in Rome, Italy, where world leaders will meet to find solutions to the growing number of hungry people in the world. The summit is to be hosted by the UN Food and Agriculture Organization.

London Lord Mayor's Show draws crowds despite bad weather

November 14, 2009

The annual Lord Mayor's Show went ahead today in London, continuing a centuries old tradition. Severe weather forced the cancellation of the fireworks display for the first time in twenty years, but thousands of people turned out to watch the procession.

The newly elected Lord Mayor of the City of London has journeyed through central London every year since 1215. The ceremony has only been cancelled once, in 1852 for the Duke of Wellington's funeral. Nick Anstee was appointed as the 682nd person to hold the position on Friday.

Saturday's show was opened by a flypast from the Royal Air Force. Anstee himself is the son of an RAF pilot, and tried to get into the service. On failing the entrance exams, he moved into finance.

Next floats and over 6,000 people began the procession from the City of London to the Royal Courts of Justice. This included 2,000 servicemen and women, as well as the Lord Mayor in the 252-year-old gold State Coach. At the Royal Courts of Justice the Lord Mayor then pledged his allegiance to the Crown.

Anstee described the show as "fantastic", and stated his intention to help restore trust in the financial services of the City.

European Union emerges from recession

November 15, 2009

The European Union has emerged from its worst recession since World War II, with the announcement on Friday that the region posted a modest growth in the third quarter. Despite the news, some EU economies including Spain and the United Kingdom are still struggling.

Both the European Union as a whole and the sixteen EU countries sharing the euro currency (the "") posted positive growth, at 0.2 percent and 0.4 percent, respectively. This follows five consecutive quarters of negative growth. The data was published by the European statistical agency and announced by the European Commission in Brussels.

Two of Europe's biggest economies, France and Germany, helped drive the overall growth. French Finance Minister announced the French economy had grown 0.3 percent in the third quarter, and predicted it would enter 2010 with its old momentum.

In an interview on French radio, Lagarde said the fact the French economy had posted two successive quarters of positive growth showed it was turning around. She also noted that the labour market had only shed 5,000 jobs in the last quarter, far fewer than at the beginning of the year. Speaking from Singapore, Lagarde predicted Asia would drive the world economic recovery — but she also said it was important to continue government economic stimulus measures through 2010.

Germany's economy grew 0.7 percent in the third quarter and Italy and the Netherlands also posted an upturn. Lithuania recorded the biggest growth — up 6 percent in the third quarter.

However the economies of both Spain and the United Kingdom shrunk in the same quarter. The UK's initially estimated a fall of 0.4 percent in British output, though this could be revised. Britain had widely been expected to show growth in the third quarter. Eurostat figures also showed that unemployment in Europe overall rose to 9.7 percent in September — the highest in 20 years.

Some economists believe that growth in Europe and the United States may slow or even reverse in 2010, in a so called "double-dip". Howard Archer of IHS Global Insight warned that the end of some government stimulus such as car scrappage schemes could cause a "loss of momentum". , head of the IMF, disagreed, predicting in a statement from Singapore that 2010 would be a global "year of recovery".

US, UK investigators seek 777 engine redesign to stop repeat of London jet crash
Although this is shorter than many FAs, I'm pretty sure this is the best English language coverage of this from any news source - that's both mainstream press and a specialist publication or two. That has to count for something. Apart from one or two pieces lifted from the Beeb, this came entirely from original sources, which are quite in-depth pieces of work and had to be read in full. (Disclaimer: some pieces, I forget which, were lifted from the NTSB) Further, I put a lot of work into trying to make a dry and technical pice into something that would appeal to a wider audience without sensationalising (Daily Fail style) or going light on detail (Guardian et al style).

Swine flu: recent developments worldwide
Nominating another one of my lengthy swine flu pieces. While there's no OR and not many people contributed to it, i think that i did a decent job of combining information from different sources into an in-depth article, and that it's comprehensive enough for an FA. Tempodivalse [talk]  00:28, 7 November 2009 (UTC)

Comments

 * There is an unbalance in the reporting. This would be due in part to limitations in the sources, not really your fault. The individual sections are fine, with more coverage for the worse hit, but "Egypt, Bulgaria, and Nicaragua each reported their first case, while Lebanon reported three" and don't get sections, whereas Vietnam gets one with four cases, only one a new development. I get the thinking behind this, but often the first case was the most interesting, when various countries had their initial reactions. There are also a couple of prose issues - Russia: "It is currently uncertain how he obtained the virus" makes it sound like he collected it on purpose and put it in his pocket, like a rare stone or banned chemical. Turkey: "...through a connected flight over Turkey entered to İstanbul Atatürk International Airport" - clumsy and doesn't make much sense.

Philippines ferry disaster: ship owner sues over toxic cargo; recovery deadline set & more
I'm nominating this because I disaprove of the fact that Brian is gaining a monopoly on FAs I feel that I did a very good job of collecting together all the various bits and pieces going on here from local news sources to create a very comprehensive coverage of what was a fairly hectic time with that story. Downpoints: There are effectively only two sources here since there are several differant articles from each source, and that title. I think an ancient discussion on my talk concerned this; although I came up with an alternative, for whatever reason the title never changed. BTW, I can think of one or two other possible candidates that may be better than this but unless people say they don't mind I won't put any more up for now to prevent a flood of me.

I need to revamp the whole thing; I'm no fan of the "stamp-collecting" of userboxes and language-proficiency shtick; I just want a "more professional" page, and I'm looking at a real headache finding a photo of me I'm happy to let loose on Commons.

Comments:NASA mission finds water on the Moon

moon water ("Deception Point"0
I am in the middle of reading Dan Brown's "Deception Point." The news of the water on the moon has caused me to think about all the possible ways the water could have been faked, or how the instruments up there might have misinterpreted the data.

I won't be happy until someone really solves this seeming contradiction of everything we thought we knew about the moon.

Review of revision 912369 [Failed]

 * First off, the article covers a promotional topic, it is not promotional (if you see any bits that are, please tell me) Second, a new source has been added. Third, this is the only "side" of the story there is. I can add some stuff on what the staff and VPs at Disney have hoped for the special, but that's all already covered in Disney has high hopes for new 'Ferb' Christmas special. I think that covers everything. Thanks, SuperFlash101 (talk) 05:42, 15 November 2009 (UTC)

Comments:UN: one billion hungry people in the world

You know, for there to be a billion people in the world without food, there have to be another billion schmedricks out there with absolutely no idea why the other billion are starving in the first place. They need immediate and unbiased access to food, shelter, and work. Not a dollar and a half. It's absolutely ludicrous that we're more worried about "helping" people than we are about doing something that would actually help them: either offer them steady means of support and allow them the choice of immersion, or just leave them alone, period. Do you honestly think we're doing more good than harm by subverting culture like this? For a dollar-fifty a week.

Farmer tends crops for eighty hours, makes a dollar-fifty.

Broker tends market speculations for four hours, makes thousands.

Farmer disperses his yield among family and friends.

Broker disperses his yield among personal bank accounts.

I wonder how either values honesty and respect?

Maybe these things are obselete.

Kosovo: voters go to the polls for the first time since independence declared from Serbia

November 15, 2009 Voting polls opened in Kosovo at 7am (0600 UTC); the first time since declaring independence from Serbia last year. Both ethnic Albanians and the minority Serb population may vote for local mayors and councillors, a move seen as testing the government's capacity to organise its own democratic elections. The territory was run by the United Nations mission before its split from Serbia in February 2008.

On Friday, President Fatmir Sejdiu stressed the importance of the elections. And, calling on the 1.5 million eligible voters to mobilise, said "[t]his Sunday should prove to the world that Kosovo is a stable country that produces peace and stability in the region".

The Kosovo police have tightened security, and the 13,000 Kosovo Force troops — a NATO-led peacekeeping force — are on standby, according to its commander, General Markus Bentler. Local and international observers will monitor polls.

The main concern is the number of citizens who will vote, as only a 40% turnout level is expected. According to the BBC, most of the 120,000 Serbs oppose Kosovo's independence. The government in Belgrade and the Serbian Orthodox Church have called for a boycott.

Polling stations are due to close at 7pm (1800 UTC); the first unofficial results are expected late Sunday evening.

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.

Peace talks: Syria's President calls upon France to intervene whilst rejecting direct talks with Israel

November 15, 2009 Syria's President has rejected moves by Israeli Prime Minister  to negotiate, saying that he had no "Israeli partner" and not being serious about peace. Ahead of talks with President Nicolas Sarkozy last Friday in Paris, he called upon France to be more involved in the Middle East peace process, after expressing disappointment with Barack Obama's performance and lack of action plan; in an interview with  he called the United States the "weak link".

Al-Assad said that he would not negotiate directly with Israel, but is willing to have discussions in Turkey. "If Mr Netanyahu is serious, he can send a team of experts, and we'll send a team of experts to Turkey. Then we can really talk, if they're interested," he said. "Today, Syria wants peace. There is a mediator, Turkey, which is ready to resume its mediation. There is also French and European support for this process. What we lack is an Israeli partner who is ready to go forward and ready to come to a result."

According to the BBC, France has been the major contributor in attempting to bring Syria back to diplomatic talks. French Foreign Minister will attempt to stimulate talks in the Middle East between Israelis and Palestinians in the coming days. Before talks with President Sarkozy, al-Assad had said "France must act".

Since Israel's creation in 1948, Syria has been in a state of war with the country, having at no point recognized the existence of the state of Israel. The major issues of conflict between the countries at present time concern Israel's possession of the region, annexed in 1981, and Syria's support for Hezbollah and Hamas.

The last direct talks between the two states collapsed in 2000.

White House considers sending Guantanamo Bay prisoners to Illinois

November 16, 2009

The has announced that it is considering sending Guantanamo Bay detainees to a state prison in northwestern Illinois.

Governor and President  discussed a federal purchase of the Thomson Correctional Center in  during Quinn's visit to Washington on November 4. The purchase would bring a desperately needed $200 million to the state government. Senator said in a statement last Saturday that the purchase would also bring fewer than 100 Guantanamo detainees to the prison and create 3,000 new jobs in the local economy.

Republican opposition has already begun. Representative warned in a letter to the President, "As home to America's tallest building, we should not invite Al Qaeda to make Illinois its number one target." Representative, whose district includes Thomson, has stated that he is "fighting efforts to bring these terrorists onto our shores ... where they could one day be released into our communities."

Built in 2001, the Thomson prison is the newest maximum-security prison in Illinois. However, it currently does not hold any maximum-security inmates but has 200 minimum-security inmates.

UK soldier shot dead in Afghanistan, number of military personnel killed in country increases to 233

November 16, 2009

At least 32 dead after snowstorms in China

November 16, 2009 Heavy snowstorms in northern China have killed at least 32 people today, according to officials. More than 15,000 buildings had collapsed due to large amounts of snow and 300,000 hectares of winter crops were destroyed, according to the Chinese Ministry of Civil Affairs.

The ministry estimated that 9.6 million people were affected in some way by the snows, and a further 166,000 people were evacuated from their homes. Most of the deaths were caused by traffic accidents, the ministry said.

Heavy snowfall started on Monday in central and northern parts of China, including the provinces of Hebei, Shanxi, Henan, Hubei, Shaanxi, and Shandong. The capital of Beijing was struck by three successive snowfalls, and dozens of flights at airports were cancelled or delayed. Beijing and the surrounding area is not very well equipped to handle the snows, as they have few de-icing supplies or snowploughs.

The snowfalls are the heaviest in China since records started being kept in 1949, according to the civil affairs ministry. State media suggested some of the snowfall was started artificially, by cloud seeding.

Kenyan cattle rustlers kill eleven

November 15, 2009 Kenya's livestock minister, Mohammed Kuti, said today that cattle rustlers have killed eleven people near the central town of Isiolo.

Kuti, who is also the member of parliament for Isiolo, said the rustlers raided in a village in the area early in the day. "The eleven people were killed when rustlers stormed a village in Kisima area early this morning," he commented.

The state-owned Kenya Broadcasting Corporation puts the number of attackers at 300, and stated that they stole an unknown number of livestock. Cattle rustling is common in Kenya, and the extended drought has heightened competition for scarce sources of food. In mid-September, 30 people were killed in a shootout as rustlers from the Pokot tribe attacked the Samburu tribe and made off with hundreds of cattle.

Mo Ibrahim: Some African countries too small to continue to exist independently

November 15, 2009 Sudanese-born British mobile communications tycoon Mo Ibrahim told a news conference in Tanzania today that some African countries are too small to keep functioning independently, and need to integrate in order to survive.

Ibrahim, speaking at the beginning of a two-day-long event encouraging good governance on the continent, commented that "some of our countries, and I'm really sorry to say this, are just not viable....We need scale and we need that now — not tomorrow, the next year or the year after."

"Intra-African trade is 4–5 percent of our international trade.  Why? This is unacceptable, unviable, and people need to stand up and say this," he continued. "Who are we to think that we can have 53 tiny little countries and be ready to compete with China, India, Europe, the Americans? It is a fallacy."

"We are poor, we are hungry, we are going without. Something is drastically wrong. I think we have the right to ask our leaders: are they really serious?" he said.

A reporter for the BBC suggested that the tycoon was talking about economic, not political, integration.

Ibrahim also surprised many African leaders when he did not give out his Ibrahim Prize in October, worth US$5 million. The prize is given to former sub-Saharan African leaders whose governance has been deemed good. Prize judges didn't say why it wasn't given out this year. Former presidents Joaquim Chissano of Mozambique and Festus Mogae of Botswana both have received the prize in the past.

We need smaller countries, not larger.

Some African countries too small to continue to exist independently
yeah ... i agree on this issue raised by mobile tycoon mr. ibrahim ..

he is not actually pointing out the poorness or illness of african countries, one has rethink about the situations of many african countries.if we consider the natural resources of african countries they are the richest in the world,bt what to happend to people there? they are constantly been robbed by the developed,develping countries. And africa is facing the affects and effect of people of these countries and becoming poorer and poorer and poorer and poorer. all the natural resources are being smuggled in or oter ways to these countries very cheaply ..

its time to wake up peoples of african countries .. if they stand together world will be at their feet..

then question come how will they stand together? being of 53 small countries .. all the local politicians should meet regular basis and make some principles like europian union or SWAT. so that there will be some improvement in their conditions of the people

Weel, Ithink also that he was taking about the economic side not the poltical, and, if i can say my point of you, I'm totally agree with him. Many african countries should colaborate with each other, to Survive, and to be outpointed in the economic world's map. Some or if i say many of these countries have the richest material like gold, like diamon,but they're the poorest, How can this happen?! Africa has many steps to overcome, to be in that developpement we live these days.

God Bless Africa, God bless Ghana. i find it really hard to understand why most countries in africa still struggle economically. for an example, the change of currency in ghana was a really lame move. i dont not know who brought that idea. although i did not major in economics, i simply know that trying to equate the ghana currency to dollar would eventually fail and not only fail, but fail drastically. now that the new currency has already depreciated value more than 35% when compared to the american dollar in less than 3 years, what do we feel, the deflation would be in the next 20 years. God bless africa. i know i owe africa something in the future, and i pray to God that, he should give me the wisdom, judgement, courage and solutions to contribute to the betterment of africa. amen

Amnesty International calls for police justice in Mozambique

November 17, 2009Human Rights group Amnesty International has called on the Mozambican government to stop and investigate allegedly illegal killings by police, citing 46 deaths since 2006 with few police prosecutions and families unable to achieve justice.

"The families of victims face almost insurmountable challenges and only the most persistent and well-off have been able to get some small measure of justice. Most others are left without any justice for the loss of their loved ones," stated Erwin van der Borght, Director of Amnesty International's Africa Programme.

"Even worse, the government seems to have permitted and even encouraged a number of obstacles to be put in the way of victims' families as they sought justice."

A police spokesman, however, claimed that the report is biased. Police said that officers guilty of illegal killings had been convicted, receiving sentences of over twenty years. However the authorities provided little information to the human rights' group, despite numerous requests. On other occasions they said that no investigations were undertaken as the killing was presumed legal.

Mozambique's police minister and his deputy declined to comment.

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 Tisha. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Tisha~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 23:36, 17 March 2015 (UTC)

Comments:White House considers sending Guantanamo Bay prisoners to Illinois

And where is this money coming from? It seems that O'Bama is no different than Bush. He spends money we don't have and that is not his. Let him and his wife put up some of their own money to finance his nonsense. 14:46, 16 November 2009 (UTC)14:46, 16 November 2009 (UTC)14:46, 16 November 2009 (UTC)24.127.251.58 (talk)

This is a great story i think Mr. Obama should do this if they are "acting up".

So we put billions into Gitmo and decided for PC reasons we don't want to have the terrorist there anymore since the World is offended about it. --KDP3 (talk) 22:53, 16 November 2009 (UTC)

 * I don't want to be awakward, but that place contains no convicted terrorists, unless you count one or two of those military tribunal things as legit trials (to be fair, that driver dude would likely get convicted anyway, he basically confessed). Perhaps the States should prove they're terrorists. Some fair trials, and most of the world would shut up about the place. Blood Red Sandman  (Talk)   (Contribs) 23:01, 16 November 2009 (UTC)
 * What I'm worried about this. Is all the legal problems. From the waterboarding to being arrested without a warrant. I want to see them get their day in court but not in NY or dragging the 9/11 families into it. We should just let it be in Gitmo.--KDP3 (talk) 23:44, 16 November 2009 (UTC)
 * Guantanamo lost its credibility; I doubt a lot of people would accept results there. The dangerous ones would get life anyways. The families wouldn't need to testify; cruel as it sounds, what they say is actually irrelelvant unless they want to put in a statement at sentencing. A related point: Some of the 9/11 ones are/were facing a war crimes trial, dunno what happened about that. War crimes... So, by default if they are guilty of such then their mates can legally hit military targets? Someone didn't think that through. The main point is, they'll knock at most a decade off the sentences for the torture, detention without trial etc. The kind of sentence a convicted terrorist gets in the States, that's nothing. They still got 50+ years. Blood Red Sandman  (Talk)   (Contribs) 00:39, 17 November 2009 (UTC)

Obama's political motives
Illinois voters won't hold this against Obama when he runs for reelection in 2012, but other states might. He made a wise political decision here. Benny the mascot (talk) 01:23, 17 November 2009 (UTC)

so what the tall's building is there its most likely not the most important so suck it up

Thanks for experimenting with Wikinews. Your test worked, and has now been reverted or removed. Please use Sandbox for any other tests you want to do, since testing in articles may disrupt the site's working and will be reverted quickly. Tempodivalse [talk]  15:06, 16 November 2009 (UTC)

This is your last warning. The next time you vandalize a page, you will be blocked from editing Wikinews. Please use the sandbox for any other tests you want to do, since testing in articles will be reverted quickly. Brian McNeil / talk 13:03, 3 December 2009 (UTC)

Wikinews:A nice cup of tea and a sit down/Cirt

Cirt
For your outstanding interviews. You've managed to do quite a few over the last couple of years. :) I would also like to congratulate you on writing over 90 articles for Wikinews, as well as getting 4 barnstars and being a significant contributor to 3 featured articles. Let's hope that total goes up soon, eh? :) -- Rayboy8 ( my talk ) 17:39, 16 November 2009 (UTC)

 * Thanks very much! :) Cirt (talk) 03:20, 17 November 2009 (UTC)

Comments:At least 32 dead after snowstorms in China

"State media suggested some of the snowfall was started artificially, by cloud seeding." Wow. That's of the standard I'd expect from Pravda Online (yes, that thing still exists, kind of), not Xinhua, notoriously bad though the latter is. Blood Red Sandman (Talk)   (Contribs) 18:51, 16 November 2009 (UTC)

I don't understand what you're surprised about. They do force a lot of precipitation; it's understandable that some of it would end up snow. Maybe a moot point, since this is freakish snow either way. —70.53.86.46 (talk) 07:48, 17 November 2009 (UTC)
