Two new cases of West Nile Virus reported in Indiana

August 30, 2007 According to city health officials in Hammond, Indiana, there have been two more cases of West Nile virus reported in humans.

West Nile virus' (WNV) is a virus of the family Flaviviridae; part of the Japanese encephalitis (JE) antigenic complex of viruses, it is found in both tropical and temperate regions. It mainly infects birds, but is known to infect humans, horses, dogs, cats, bats, chipmunks, skunks, squirrels, and domestic rabbits. The main route of human infection is through the bite of an infected mosquito.

The two victims are former chief of police, Frank DuPey and a 67-year-old Hammond resident. Currently both patients are hospitalized with acute disease, according to Hammond Health Officer-Administrator Rodrigo Panares.

Nokia already has several iPhone competitor models (e.g. N95) released before the iPhone with additional features (e.g. 3G, WiFi, 5 megapixel camera). Why would they license the iPhone, and why would Apple license it out? What was in the news today was Nokia unveiling a music (and game) purchase system that could rival iTunes, Ovi I believe it is going to be called. -76.30.168.158 04:19, 30 August 2007 (UTC)

Silent protest in Athens over recent fires

August 30, 2007 Thousands of Greeks gathered last night in Syntagma square in front of the parliament building in Athens to protest over the political response to the fires.

An estimated 8,000 people attended, after a call for a silent protest had been distributed through e-mail, text messages and eventually the media.

Although general elections are taking place in two and a half weeks time, the protest was meant to be apolitical. Some protesters taunted riot police, who responded with stun grenades.

Wikinews:FootballTicker

The Wikinews Football Ticker is a JavaScript and AJAX based news ticker.

It cycles through the latest football news and results, based on the DPLs found in Portal:Football/Tickersource (semiprotected).

The code connects and downloads the rendered content of that page on each pageview where the template is enabled, which takes between 500 and 800ms on an average connection. It then outputs each one line-by-line, "typing" it out on screen, then waiting 7 seconds before displaying the next one.

The ticker is maintained by User:Celticfan383. Please notify/ask him about all changes to the scripts, especially ones changing formatting, or the code itself.

The ticker can be added using the Football Ticker template, which will display like it is below:

Horse flu infects Australian thoroughbreds

August 30, 2007

It has been confirmed that eight thoroughbred race horses at Randwick Racecourse in Sydney have been infected with equine influenza. Randwick has been locked down, and is expected to remain so for up to two months.

It is expected that the virulent flu will affect the majority of the 700 horses stabled at Randwick. NSW Minister for Primary Industries said the facility would be quarantined until 30 days after the last sign of the flu.

The cases are the first infections of race horses, despite infecting dozens of recreational horses across NSW and Queensland. The flu is highly contagious but cannot be transmitted to humans. The national racing shutdown was costing the industry tens of millions of dollars every day.

Chief Executive of Racing NSW, Peter V'Landys said while racing had been disrupted since a ban on horse movements last weekend today was a "grim, black day" for the racing industry in NSW. Racing is expected to resume in all Australian states except NSW and Queensland on the weekend.

While Sydney's spring racing carnival has been canceled, Melbourne's is expected to kick off this weekend with the Caufield Cup. The cup will be ran with special precautions in place to attempt to keep the state free of the virus. Contact between the general public and those working with the horses will be banned and Sydney-based jockeys Darren Beadman and Hugh Bowman and a number of interstate trainers including Bart Cummings are not allowed to take part.

Federal Minister for Agriculture, Peter McGauran said the spring carnival in Melbourne will remain "largely intact" despite losing some of the biggest names in Australian racing.

Comments:Silent protest in Athens over recent fires

Might I ask...
What is it about the treatment of the fires they are protesting against? I have looked around and can't figure it out. 65.27.139.162 07:40, 30 August 2007 (UTC)

 * See Greece on fire, death toll exceeds 60 Alefbetac 07:56, 30 August 2007 (UTC)

A lack of strategy in combating the fires? "Ta Nea is reporting that the government is facing collapse", if a govurnment can't deal with a fire, than there is no way it could survive a war.

Thanks for the info, I have read that article before, but I didn't realize that people would be protesting a lack of strategy. Interesting. 65.27.139.162 09:19, 30 August 2007 (UTC)

Australian short-term inmates have their right to vote reinstated

August 30, 2007

The High Court of Australia has overturned legislation enacted by the Howard government last year which banned all gaol inmates from voting at federal elections. The court ruled by majority that the previous legislation which banned only those serving sentences longer than three years would remain.

The case against the amendments was bought to the court by an Aboriginal inmate, Vickie Roache, who is an inmate at the Dame Phyllis Frost Women's Prison in Victoria. She was represented by Philip Lynch, director of the Victorian Human Rights Law Resource Centre. He described Ms Roache as educated, articulate and deeply committed to the rights of prisoners and indigenous Australians.

"Vickie has stood up not just for the human rights of prisoners and Aboriginal Australians, but the interests of the entire community. She has done so with courage, integrity and commitment," he said.

Lawyers argued that the amendments to the Commonwealth Electoral Act were in violation of the Constitution which states that the parliament is to be "directly chosen by the people".

Ms Roache's challenge to previous laws which banned inmates serving terms longer than three years was unsuccessful, with the court upholding them. The court further ordered Ms Roache to pay half the court's costs.

There is yet to be an comment by the federal government or a release detailing the reasons behind the courts decision.

'Mega Millions' lottery nears record high in US

August 30, 2007 , a multi-state lottery in the United States is nearing a record high. Friday's August 31 drawing is expected to be at least US$325,000,000. So far, it is the fourth largest jackpot in U.S. history.

Twelve states in the U.S. participate in the lottery and the odds of at least one person winning the jackpot are one in 175,711,536. It costs just one dollar to purchase a ticket and if you win, you can receive the winnings in sums of 36,000 for every million won, each year, or receive it all in one lump sum.

On Tuesday, the jackpot was only at $250 million and reports say that the jackpot could rise even higher than $325 million just before the drawing on Friday.

On March 6, 2007, the Mega Millions jackpot of US$390 million, the highest lottery jackpot ever in the world, was paid out to two individuals who lived in Georgia and New Jersey.

The lottery results will be broadcast on live television at 8:00 p.m. (pacific time), 11:00 p.m. (eastern time).

I don't use wikinews anymore because it used wikileaks as if it were a reliable source! You are a bunch of hypocrites. You say that other things aren't reliable sources but that wikileaks is? And to boot, there is nothing here that isn't covered much more extensively in Google news. The use of wikileaks removes any credibility this website had left.

Some entertaining short youtube clips:

(priceless)

(hilarious)

(hilarious, and they aren't gay)

(retards in audience)

(funny puppet act)

(no more freedom fries)

(she is just like W)

(-_-)

Bush videos (bushisms)

(sounds real)

(Makes the Gettysburg Address look pathetic!)

(Is he?)

(politicians do this all of the time to deny time to their adversary)

cool down please
Please, cool down your comments. Jacques Divol 07:30, 10 September 2007 (UTC)
 * I am simply putting my thoughts on subjects. I like to share my thoughts if you don't mind. It's not like I am insulting anyone, I like to debate a little now and then. And some times things can be utterly ridiculous (like thinking that no-one is capable of lying). I am sorry if I offended you. Contralya 07:45, 10 September 2007 (UTC)
 * For the record, I see no problem in using the comments pages for your comments and for sharing your thoughts. That's what the comments pages were created for. :-) -- IlyaHaykinson 07:50, 10 September 2007 (UTC)
 * That is what I thought they were for too (like the box at the top of the opinion pages and the boxes at the bottom of articles asking to post opinions). Curious how rare posts in opinion sections are. I am not saying that everyone else is wrong in my posts, I am just telling it like I see it; like I said before, a little debate is healthy, it lets people see all sides of a story. Contralya 07:57, 10 September 2007 (UTC)
 * sorry, i did not want to hurt, but when i saw the flow of opinions you write, my first thought was "a spammer attack...." i must block him before he/she spoils Wikinews. i did'nt block you nor erase your elevated thoughts (^-^). I am not at ease with this article's subspace called opinion, not very usefull, a misleading place (Wikinews reach an agreement to create it, i know, no problem). You are, of course, free to write any opinion you need, even if Wikinews is in badly need of active contributor writing articles !!! Jacques Divol 08:19, 10 September 2007 (UTC)

No offense taken, was it the frequency of my edits? I was making comments pretty fast for a few minutes. I am sorry about not editing more than grammar and such, I am not so good at writing in wiki format (especially finding sources) and have been diagnosed with Asperger syndrome. Contralya 08:26, 10 September 2007 (UTC)

I absolutely agree with you. News channels chose what people should be interested in and that's something i'm really bored about. The concept of wikinews is the way of the future i my opinion since i get to choose the news im interested in and follow the links in order to get hours of information the major news channel would judge ,not of importance for the population. A good example is the internation news, here in wikinews the internation news his prioritary because this is and internation website and i like that very much. --Z E U S0 05:51, 16 September 2007 (UTC)

POV?
Please explain the placing of the tag on the articles talk page, as I don't understand your reasoning for it. DragonFire1024 (Talk to the Dragon) 12:54, 25 September 2007 (UTC) As I have said, it implies that 'American empire' is a fact, instead of an opinion or theory. It offends me and probably millions of others. Since it is not a quote of someone, that means that the article is not neutral. Contralya 12:56, 25 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Its not his quote...its what they teach their students and tell their people. This is not a quote or a thought, but a way of life, in the eyes of Iran. So therefore, technically this "quote" is true. DragonFire1024 (Talk to the Dragon) 12:58, 25 September 2007 (UTC)
 * "Whether Ahmadinejad should speak or not, the war in Iraq, Israel, American imperialism, George W. Bush, God, and morality created a powder keg of opinions which made the air feel as if at any moment it would explode into fisticuffs."

This does not clearly state that it is what he was talking about. Contralya 13:01, 25 September 2007 (UTC)

Unblock request denied
Two things: See you in 20 hours. irid t i [mailto:ironiridis@gmail.com e] 00:25, 26 September 2007 (UTC)
 * 1) Personal attacks of any type are not permitted on this wiki. You have made virtually no positive contributions to any articles here, so you have absolutely no right to label someone with some political view.
 * 2) Please stop subst:ing templates that aren't designed for that.

If I accused someone of being a libertarian or green party, would I be treated this way? I didn't mean to insult, I wanted to know weather or not he is in that party, and if it effects his objectivity. And you can't blame me for not 'not making positive contributions', I am mostly here to READ NEWS and I am not a reporter (I totally suck at finding 'sources'). Most of what I do as far as editing is posting questions and opinions for debate in the opinions section, and occasionally questioning things in the collaboration section. Are you condemning me for not being a editor? Is using the internet without being able to edit like you guys do a crime? I only know rudimentary wiki editing. (Actually, I would like to know how you guys do all of this editing). I was not labeling him, I was saying that he supported the party or was in it.

Please tell me what "subst:ing" is. Because I have no idea what that term means. Is it about posting the little boxes at the top of a page? I know from wikipedia that if you see a problem with an article, you put a box at the top to inform viewers and help editors find things that need to change. Like putting 'update' on something that is obviously outdated. Are they used differently here? If so, than what are the boxes at the top used for?Contralya 01:38, 26 September 2007 (UTC)

 * Now three things. [[Image:Smile.png|20px]]
 * If you're here to read news, being blocked shouldn't bother you; you're free to read as much as you'd like since being blocked only effects editing.
 * Any accusation of a political affiliation (especially a political party which has had an interesting history with Wikimedia projects) that is also made with the tone that you used is effectively considered an attack. It is unfortunate that you say now that you weren't labeling him; because labeling him with the title of "communist" would imply that you were saying he supported the party or was in it.
 * We've seen you editing on Wikipedia; you're not a newbie. Don't pretend to be.
 * That said, once your block is complete, you can resume ranting on the comments pages and yet making no valuable contribution here whatsoever. If you're incapable of editing the wiki, please don't go to the top of this page and read the instructions we give to everyone. irid t i [mailto:ironiridis@gmail.com e]  01:48, 26 September 2007 (UTC)
 * (edit conflict) Also, "subst:ing" is where you write something like instead of  .  irid t i [mailto:ironiridis@gmail.com e]  01:48, 26 September 2007 (UTC)

What? Why are you attacking me like this? Assume good faith please. As we have both said, most of my editing is posting opinions. I like posting opinions. I have edited, I don't know ADVANCED editing, I know basic stuff like formatting basic text, and I have found boxes and copy/pasted them were I want to put them. I have never made a wiki article from scratch, unless you count my user pages. I do not come here to create articles, I am not a reporter, I am not a serious editor. I am not acting like I don't know how to edit. I don't know advanced editing! And give ONE example of me using the subst thingy, I think I might of used it a couple times, what does writing that prefix do? I don't know what it is, I know that I don't do it often. If it is something I should never do, just say so. Please, don't take your anger out on me. I think I might be being treated unfairly, I consider myself a consumer of this news, and do little editing compared to you guys. In wikipedia, I usually point out things being not neutral, but there is little of that over here. And saying things on the opinion pages isn't a crime! What are they there for if I am not allowed to post my opinion or debate there?

If you ban me for the long term just because I am standing up for my rights at this site, than I don't want to edit at a site were I get attacked for no reason. I admit, the communist thing could be interpreted as an insult, but it doesn't warrant this abuse! You bully me just because I don't write articles. Are you being mean to me because you disagree with my opinions? If so, that is NOT FAIR.

I am OK if this day long ban isn't lifted, but I am not OK with this treatment. When I noticed that I couldn't edit, I was wondering if there was some rule that wasn't in the rulebook, and than I saw about the communist thing. I think that person is sympathetic to the group, and that he may of been posting that information just to acknowledge the group. I am CERTAIN that the majority of those protesters weren't communist party. I was disagreeing with the article implying that they were. I try to improve in little ways, because I don't like the idea of people being mislead by the news. And I also maintain that article can't be 100% neutral due to the subject matter.

For the first two points, like I said, I didn't mean it as an insult, more like an allegation of involvement leading to not being impartial in editing choices. Do Chinese officials get mad when they are called communist? Do people who's party has communist in it's name get mad when they are called communist? Communism is a fact of life, there are many organizations in history who have been under it, though I would say Stalin's communism isn't actually communism, more like a regime.

And for the second point, I don't make a habit of using that prefix, I don't know what it does. Can you tell me what it does when you put that prefix in to a box? If it does something, than it is simply ignorance from someone who doesn't know everything about editing. I don't have any problem not using the prefix. Tell me what it does and when I should use it and I will act accordingly! Contralya 02:24, 26 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Being blocked isn't the end of the world.
 * You are capable of editing articles just as much as you are capable of editing comments sections. (when you aren't blocked)
 * This is in no way a lifetime ban. Not even close. You would have to cause months and months of disruption before someone would ban you forever.
 * I'm not attacking or bullying you, though saying that is worth its weight in tin. I don't know what gave you the impression that this whole thing was supposed to be fair, though.
 * Whether or not you meant as an insult, it was taken as such, and after discussion between admins, you were blocked for 24 hours. The block is reasonable (well, okay, I personally disagree with it) and not extreme.
 * You were blocked by one of our oldest and most well-respected members. I absolutely trust his judgment, like many others here. Therefore, I don't think you will have your block lifted.
 * Basically, you can't just can't say "And commuist guy ... your party". Unless you want to make the case that you meant to write "commuist". irid t i [mailto:ironiridis@gmail.com e]  02:53, 26 September 2007 (UTC)

 * Well I do feel better. O.K. The comments aren't really that important, I was concerned if I was going to get banned for no reason and stuff (I have experienced this on other sites). Just so there is a little understanding, I would like the one who wanted the ban to know that I have a partially treated case of Asperger syndrome. Contralya 07:57, 26 September 2007 (UTC)

Idea for an article
I saw an episode of The O'Reilly Factor, he was talking about how that rich guy was owning the other media, NBC and CNN and spewing "Far left" propaganda. This after the two news channels both criticized him as being anti-semitic, anti-black, even anti-Eskimo, how they manipulated parts of what he says and want people to think that O'reilly is evil.

"Mainstream media" at each others throats! This would be great to have an article about, seeing as we are neutral and not 'mainstream media' like Fox, CNN or NBC. Be careful not to be too critical, or leftists may just target wikinews...
 * Sadly, they used to. irid t i [mailto:ironiridis@gmail.com e]  02:12, 26 September 2007 (UTC)

 * OUCH! O'Reilly was right! I still think there should be an article about it. Watching that episode, It seemed like they had finally come to blows. Outright attacking each other on their programs! This is an event worthy of a news article. Contralya 02:44, 26 September 2007 (UTC)

comment
Not sure how to relate this to you, but I looked over your history and have one question. Do you think for yourself at all or do you just take the incoming bias to be accurate? Maybe you are sincere, but much of what you have written reads as though you are trolling. Analysis, that is the important thing-not just repeating vague talking points. Try reading about thing without deciding what you think it all means beforehand. 66.157.100.253 10:01, 20 November 2007 (UTC)

 * I am not trolling and just because you disagree with me doesn't mean that I am wrong. Contralya 20:53, 21 November 2007 (UTC)

Who said anything stating opposition? Some things you write that are vague rehashing of reports lacking reference I naturally discount but apart from that I have no opposition to you. I asked the other questions because of the immense influence you describe television news coverage had on you in different places; while that especially is where presenters must deliver in a strictly restricted manner that is rife with bias. It was a serious question. The trolling question was because so much of your writing makes ambiguous references in argument and uses derogatory language. 66.157.100.253 02:07, 22 November 2007 (UTC)

 * YOU said it. You act like I am wrong. Why do I need to give you evidence? Do I have to show someone my birth certificate if I tell them my age? You don't take my word. Is this because of the Fox news stuff? I think you might be a leftist trying to limit my free speech. Now, don't comment on this page again or I will delete it. I don't have this page to argue with the likes of you. Contralya 02:04, 23 November 2007 (UTC)

NHL: Vancouver Canucks showcase new uniform

August 30, 2007 The Vancouver Canucks, hockey team to Vancouver, British Columbia, unveiled it's new home and away uniforms today. Keeping the trade-mark Orca, the jersey has remixed the colors as well as adding a green stripe for both the home and away uniforms. This is the 5th jersey the team has gone through since 1970 when the team was founded.

The redesign has been met with some criticisms. John Carter a graphics arts instructor at a local college was quoted as calling the redesign an "utter disappointment."

The design uses the same core colors in the original design, and on the back it also has their original jersey's hockey stick symbol. The president and CEO of the Canucks, Chris Zimmerman, recognizes this saying, "Our goal when we set out was to celebrate our heritage and to design a sweater that reflects our extraordinary city and province. "We wanted to unveil a sweater that reflects our past and our future." Zimmerman also went on to say the design represents, "who we are and the connection to the community."

Articles I've written
Unless said otherwise, I've written a substantial portion to these articles. If it's a short article, I probably wrote it all. If it's a long article, at the very least I wrote a quite a few paragraphs. That being said, expect me to 'say otherwise' quite often.

YouTube access returns to Thailand

August 30, 2007 YouTube videos could once again be viewed today in Thailand, nearly six months after the video-sharing website was blocked for hosting a video that showed images deemed offensive to Thailand's monarch, King Bhumibol Adulyadej.

Information and Communications Technology Minister Sitthichai Pookaiyaudom said the ministry unblocked YouTube after the website said it had developed ways to block Thailand viewers from seeing contents that violate Thai laws.

In April, YouTube was blocked in Thailand after a video was uploaded that showed graffiti scrawled over the king's face, and feet being placed over the king's face; both highly offensive acts in Thai culture. Against the king, the offense is known as lèse majesté, a crime that can carry severe penalties.

Sitthichai told The Nation newspaper that the unblocking of YouTube is not in response to an apology issued in May by the video uploader.

About this story
I am in Thailand and discovered I could access YouTube at around 1900 local time (1200 GMT). I checked with some colleagues and they confirmed that they could access it as well. The Nation story has the confirmation from MICT that YouTube is unblocked.

I did not, however, take time to find any content that might be blocked in Thailand, to test if YouTube's filtering is working. I did a cursory search for the original offending video, but couldn't find it amidst the possibly hundreds of "answer" videos uploaded that are in praise of the king.

Immigration raid at Ohio poultry plant

August 30, 2007

Roughly 160 Illegal immigrants were arrested when federal authorities raided a chicken plant in Fairfield, Ohio. US Immigration and Customs Enforcement confirms a Search warrant was conducted Tuesday, however, they made no arrests.

Koch poultry was also raided earlier in the day Tuesday when dozens of suspected illegal immigrants were arrested. According to federal officials, the poultry plant has a reputation of hiring undocumented workers.

According to Koch poultry officials, over 150 employees have had their employment terminated after finding that they had not entered the United States legally.

Federal officials state that meat processing plants are frequent targets for undocumented workers. They also state that officials are stepping up efforts to track down undocumented workers.

2007 FIFA U17 World Cup: Germany eliminates Americans; sets up England quarter final

August 30, 2007

Germany beat the Americans 2-1 to advance to the quarter-finals against England at the FIFA U-17 World Cup.

The Germans had a many chances in the 1st half of the match. The Americans managed to keep the Germans off the scoresheet at half time with save from the American goalkeeper along with German shots going wide, until a 65th minute goal from Richard Sukuta-Pasu.

The United States sent everyone forward to seek an equaliser. Richard Sukuta-Pasu took advantage of this in the 89th minute scoring for the 2nd time in the 2nd half. Mykell Bates scored in Stoppage time to give the Americans a lifeline.

Post match quotes
Heiko Herrlich (GER), Germany coach "We kept it tight at the back and never gave them a sight of goal. We were outstanding going forward and with a bit more luck we'd have been 4-0 up. Our second goal and the 2-0 lead was totally deserved. The USA only made headway from set plays and long balls. I want to congratulate my team. The important thing now is to keep our feet on the ground and regenerate as fast as possible, as we'll need to be perfectly prepared for the quarter-final against England. We'll be working intensively on preparing to meet our next opponents."

John Hackworth (USA), USA coach "I'm having trouble putting my thoughts into words. The lads have worked so hard and made so many sacrifices to get this far. We wanted to progress, but unfortunately the tournament's over for us. That's tough on my team, obviously. Congratulations to Germany, they put us under all sorts of pressure before we threw everything at them right at the end. It's a shame we couldn't turn in the kind of performance we're capable of, but my team showed heart and character. The Germans have a very powerful team and ultimately deserved to win, and all the best to them for the rest of the tournament."

Richard Sukuta-Pasu (GER), Germany forward "Obviously, I'm delighted with my two goals, but we can still do better. We'll celebrate a little tonight, and then as of tomorrow we'll focus on England. The tournament's not over for us by any stretch of the imagination, we could still go all the way at this World Cup."

Josh Lambo (USA), USA goalkeeper "It was a tough match for us. We battled right to the end, but we've come away empty-handed. You've got to be disappointed about that. We've learned a lot for the future at the tournament, especially about desire and the need to fight for every loose ball. Germany are a fantastic team and played tremendously well. If they can keep playing the way they did against us today, they could go a long way."

Iraqi peace talks to begin in Finland within days

August 30, 2007

Talks aimed at negotiating peace between Iraqi Shi'ites and Sunni Muslims, the two largest population groups in Iraq, are set to take place in Finland within the next few days.

The Crisis Management Initiative (CMI) and the Finnish Foreign Ministry have both confirmed reports that the pre-arranged talks are scheduled to begin soon in an undisclosed location in Finland. The CMI, a non-governmental organisation founded by former President of Finland Martti Ahtisaari, has organised the talks, which are said to include key politicians, including representatives of major political parties.

Although the CMI will host the talks, Finland will take no direct role in the discussions. Martti Ahtisaari specifically will not take part, either.

All of those to take part in the mediations are still to arrive in Finland, including mediators from Northern Ireland and South Africa, who have already negotiated successful peace deals in their own countries.

The CMI has already succeeded once in helping two rival factions come to a peace deal. In 2005, the organisation arranged successful talks between the Indonesian government and the Free Aceh Movement.

UEFA Champions League 2007/08: Group Stage Draw

Monaco was the location for the 2007/08 UEFA Champions League group stage draw. Before the draw took place there was a one minute silence in memory of who died earlier this week after collapsing during a La Liga match for  who then died on Tuesday, August 28.

Four Boeing 737's found with similar fault to China Airlines plane; inspection deadline shortened

August 30, 2007 The United States Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) has tightened the deadline imposed earlier for inspection of all Boeing 737 Next Generation worldwide.

The mandatory inspections were imposed after it was discovered that the China Airlines 737 that exploded in Japan had a hole in it's right wing fuel tank, which had been caused by a loose bolt from the wing slat assembly.

The wing slats are panels mounted to the leading edge of a wing. They are moved forward during final approach for landing to increase lift from the wing, allowing the plane to fly slower than it can when the aircraft is configured for cruise without entering a stall. The bolt in question is mounted to the main slat tracks, on which the slats slide back and forth. As they are extended for landing, they can cause the bolt to be pushed through the adjacent wing fuel tank, rupturing it in the way it is believed the China Airlines plane's tank was.

Thus far, the inspections have discovered four airliners in which the bolt was loose. These discoveries give the authorities cause to believe that loose wing slat track bolts may be more widespread than originally considered, and accordingly reduced the inspection deadline from 24 days to 10 days. After that, inspections must be made every 3,000 operational hours, an unchanged schedule from the original set out at the same time as the 24-day deadline.

The Emergency Airworthiness Directive that the inspections are laid out in is believed to affect a total of 2,287 aircraft sold by Boeing around the world, although the FAA only has the authority to make the inspections compulsory for the 783 aircraft currently being operated in the U.S.

Although the FAA refused to release any details on which aircraft were found to have loose bolts, CNN and Agence France-Presse both reported that a fifth plane also exhibited the fault, belonging to Air Nippon and in operation in Japan. Although the fault was located elsewhere in the assembly, it is believed to have an identically high chance of causing a rupture to the fuel tank. All 22 other 737 NextGens in Japan have been checked, with no problems being identified.

Meanwhile, Norwegian Air Shuttle demonstrated it's faith in the aircraft by placing a US$3.1bn (UK£1.5bn) order for 42 Boeing 737-800 passenger jets with an option to buy 42 more, having already ordered 11 in May this year.

I hope that they all come to the table in good faith and leave with a solid plan. The religious ideologies present in Iraq have been one of the most de-stabilizing factors, and it would be a small measure of comfort to know that they'd settled their differences. Once that happens, we can get on with the task of rebuilding Iraq into a stable nation on it's way to first-world status instead of the hardscrabble tyranny it used to be.

You'd think they might have the sense to ground the fleet until after an inspection, instead of leaving them in the air. That's five confirmed cases... How many others are there? We know there were also several tank ruptures prior to Flight 120... Blood Red Sandman (Talk)   (Contribs) 18:28, 30 August 2007 (UTC)

This is old news from August 28th.

The original wikinews story already references the current/updated inspection deadlines and the updated Emergency Airworthiness Directive. I don't see any need for this new story other than to copycat all the MSM stories that are, per usual, days behind.67.42.61.63 23:59, 30 August 2007 (UTC)

Comments:NHL: Vancouver Canucks showcase new uniform

New Uniform
Personally, I don't care about the team's uniform as much as the team's performance. It's a matter of time before they shed the AHL looking "VANCOUVER" however, for a less busy uniform/logo approach. The lettering is the only thing the team needs to clean up. At least one tradition is alive and well -- the tradition of supplying Vancouver fans with silly uniforms to look at.

Open Letter to Vancouver Canucks Fans
Open letter to Vancouver Canucks Fans:

There is nothing more frustrating than when a corporate executive digs in and starts to defend his misdeeds, horrible lack of judgement or outright failures. The ego and the brain starts to kick into to overdrive, combined with, in this case, The Vancouver Canucks massive resources and captive audience they hold over the Province of British Columbia, and you can just well imagine what is transpiring in the Corporate Bunker known as Orca Bay.

Chris Zimmerman, CEO of Orca Bay, has started to defend his creation, a new sweater, for your beloved Vancouver Canucks, with the same old tired and trotted out lines, “this is just a sign of intense fan passion and loyalty”, only the disenfranchised speak in instances like this”. I can only imagine that at this point, Mr. Zimmerman’s corporate lackies are suckling up to him, reassuring him he is right, he is great and all the other things Corporate Junior Hacks do to keep their paychecks. Mr. Aquilini is probably doing his best to support Mr. Zimmerman as well, I just pray somewhere in Mr. Aquilini’s brain, a seed of doubt has sprung in so far as “What exactly have we done” l realize that a lot of what has been said about these jersey’s is subjective, but what is fact, is that Mr. Zimmerman authorized $1,000,000 to end up with an design atrocity that can only be described as “Garage Sale Chic”.

When a design expert was interviewed about Mr. Zimmerman process of designing “The Bleached Whale”, John Carter, a graphic design instructor at Douglas College, called the redesign an "utter disappointment" and "the tawdriest type of cut-and-paste job." "Effective design requires clarity of purpose and visual unity, both of which are evidently lacking here," he wrote. Mr. Zimmerman, THAT is not subjective, you SHOULD have a hard time sweeping that under the carpet. The posthumous design model Mr. Zimmerman has weakly  put forth, that we had "design" paradigms, in so far as being Canadian, honouring our past in at best a horrible way to start an artist process, and at best, a cheap excuse for bad execution.

What is outrageously confusing is that Mr. Zimmerman comes from Nike, perhaps the most recognized corporate logo there is. Did one of his Corporate Junior Blow Holes not point out that no where is the word “Beaverton” splashed across the Nike Swoosh in some confusing psychotic way? One can wonder if Mr. Zimmerman has lost his mind, but in his industry, you are only as good as your last slogan or campaign, Mr. Zimmerman, right now you are not very good. Now that’s the bad news…There is some good that can come out of this. Remember, one ever went broke under estimating the stupidity of the general public, and right now, whether Mr. Zimmerman realizes it or not, your stupidity is his only hope. See, he watched as you complained and moaned about the price of gas at $1.29 per litre, you tried to do something about it, but were too lazy and then you got distracted. He remembers that some of you were so mentally incapacitated, that you continued to support Prime Minister Chrétien for refusing to put Hamas on a Canadian list of terrorist organizations because as he put it, “He was so impressed with their charitable wing”. As Mr. Zimmerman smugly defends his “Voice of Fire” in a toned vaguely reminiscent of Marc Crawford speaking after injection a canister of helium, he realizes that you will pay your hard earned money to line the pockets of his owner, Mr. Aquilini. That is sickening……

What else is sickening is, with the amazing amount of “amateur generated” sweaters, designed on the web. Mr. Zimmerman had the option of shelving his ego, paying $100,00 to one of the designers that would have rated much higher in focus groups, there were focus groups weren’t there, or are “We are all Canucks” whatever that means, simply refer to the fashion deficient Orca Bay family. The other $900,000 could and should have gone to making a difference to children at Canucks Place; you do remember Canucks Place, Mr. Zimmerman? So here is a positive counter measure to what has turned out to be a disaster. DO NOT BUY the new sweater. Mr. Zimmerman will tell you how important you are, but WILL not consider your opinion unless you stop giving him your hard earned money. Make $135 donation to Canuck Place for Kids instead. If you child asks you for a jersey, use this as an opportunity to teach them a life lesson much more important than getting what they want, when they want. Tell them about kids their age, less fortunate than themselves; make them feel good about giving instead of receiving. Everyone wins, your child gets a wonderful life lesson, you get a tax receipt, a sick child gets the help and support they so desperately need, and Mr. Zimmerman gets a message that he wouldn’t otherwise allow himself to get. Let them know that when Mr. Naslund goes on TV as says he likes the new sweaters that they shouldn’t believe everything they see on TV. Explain to them that when Mr. Vick said he wasn’t guilty, that sometimes the famous people we idolize say stupid things to protect their own money. As Mr. Zimmerman sits in his office, asking himself why everybody is reacting to his brilliance, in the same way the Lindsay Loren and Paris Hilton are wondering why people are saying the things they are about them, he may contemplate how sales will be affected. I as a rule so not shop for clothes on Water Street in Gastown, as I believe that tourist trap clutter and garbage shouldn’t be appealing to anyone. However, those purveyors of trinkets and tourist trash still continue to flourish. I suspect that Mr. Zimmerman has the magical idea of a bloke from Manchester, England asking a cashier if the #19 can be removed from the colorful garbage bag, and replaced with the number “2010”. I miss Brian Burke, now more than ever, not because of the Stanley Cup that he inevitably was going to win, but because he would have stood up to Mr. Zimmerman. I could only imagine Brian saying things like. "If we are ALL Canucks, GARY, why the hell don't you take the stick out of Johnny Canucks hand, and replace is with a goddamn squeegy", or at the very least "The Capitals got it right, what the hell is your problem". Mr. Zimmerman would have fired Mr. Burke, not for being one of the top 3 minds in all of hockey, but because Mr. Zimmerman ego wouldn't have been able to take the truth from Mr. Burke, the truth we all came to love and no miss.

In conclusion, if you were a Buffalo Sabres fan, would you purchase the new Buff-a-Slug jersey, ask yourself that, because the was a massive on line petition trying to reverse the same travesty we no find ourselves with. Problem is, what Mr. Zimmerman also knows, is that even with a massive push back, Buffalo's "Flying Hairpiece" jersey sales increased 900%. If you don’t take this opportunity to help sick children, make the world a better place and teach your child an invaluable life lesson by boycotting the new “Zimmerman Travesty”, I will. I will ridicule you or your child for enabling such bad decisions, impulses and ego made by Orca Bay and those who allow this opportunity to pass. I will start by telling your child his jersey is ugly, then kindly and gently give him the lesson that you refused to offer them. There is a boycott starting around Authentix and those outlets that carry the constipated whale and we will take Mr. Aquilini up on his statement of”not wanting the new jersey to be cash grab”. Mr. Zimmerman, it’s never too late to admit to your mistakes, this has everything to do on how you do your job, and nothing to do with blaming your bad judgment on fan passion, then sit back and rake in the cash.

New species of dart frog discovered in Colombia

August 30, 2007 Scientists have discovered a new species of venomous in Colombia.

The new species, dubbed the 'golden frog of ', is 2cm (0.8 inch) long and has a range of just 50 acres (20 hectares), which is believed to be the reason why the frog remained undiscovered until now.

The frog was found in February during an expedition arranged by the Conservation Leadership Program (CLP), a nonprofit organization, but the discovery has only just been announced.

However, according to Giovanni Chaves, a biologist from the CLP, the frog is in imminent danger. "This frog exists in a little fragment of cloud forest that is under intense {{w|anthropogenic]] pressure, mainly the destruction of the forest for cattle-raising and agriculture," he said.

"This discovery allows us to know a little more about the ecology of these beautiful animals, and it will also allow us to use it as a symbol to carry out campaigns of environmental education in this area, to show the need to protect and to conserve the fauna and flora of this region of Colombia."

Colombia has one of the richest diversities of {{w|amphibian}}s in the world, with more than 583 known species.

Suspected poisonous gas found in New York

August 30, 2007 At least six to eight vials containing a reportedly poisonous gas were found at a United Nations (U.N.) office in New York, according to reports released today. The vials were potentially hazardous and reportedly came from a chemical plant in Iraq. U.N. deputy spokeswoman Marie Okabe assured the public they were not in danger saying, "There is no immediate risk or danger." However, the U.N. Monitoring, Verification and Inspection Commission (UNMOVIC) building was evacuated, according to federal authorities.

The recovered gas was believed to be phosgene, which is used to make pesticides and plastics. The gas can be hazardous at room temperature, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (C.D.C.). The gas was used frequently throughout World War I.

The gas was brought to the U.S. from a chemical weapons plant north of Baghdad in 1996.

Ewen Buchanan, a UNMOVIC spokesman, said the phosgene gas was in liquid form, "ranging in size from small vials to tubes the length of a pen," she said.

Jerry Hauer, former New York City emergency services director, told ABC News that "If it is properly sealed, it should not pose much of a threat unless it is dropped" and "They need to get it out of there and put it in a safe canister...It shows immense stupidity to have that kind of thing sitting around as a souvenir."

No toxic vapors were found in the air and no one was injured. FBI agents, WMD teams, as well as hazmat units were all reporting to the scene.

Cricket: England defeats India in fourth one-day international

August 30, 2007

England have beaten India by three wickets in the fourth One-Day International of the series at Old Trafford, Manchester, England.

England's bowlers made early breakthroughs to restrict India to 32-3. Sourav Ganguly fell to James Anderson for nine runs, while Dinesh Karthik and Rahul Dravid were both caught behind for just four runs and one run respectively. Sachin Tendulkar and Yuvraj Singh shared a 71 run partnership to steady the Indian innings. Tendulkar was dismissed for 55 runs, while Yuvraj Singh was bowled by Stuart Broad for 71. India were bowled out for 212 runs, with Stuart Broad the pick of the English bowlers, taking 4-51.

India's pace bowlers struck back immediately, with England opening batsman Alastair Cook bowled by Zaheer Khan before any runs had been scored, while Matt Prior fell to Ajit Agarkar in the fourth over. Agarkar, finishing with bowling figures of 4-60, also removed Ian Bell for 24 runs followed by the wickets of Kevin Pietersen and Andrew Flintoff to reduce England to 95-5. England captain Paul Collingwood scored 47 runs before being run out and when Owais Shah was removed for eight runs England were heading for defeat. However Ravi Bopara (43 not out) and Stuart Broad (45 not out) shared a partnership of 99 runs to salvage an unlikely victory for England with twelve balls remaining.

User:Ironiridis/Current HowTo

 * This documentation is transcluded from another document. Click here to edit it.

Deprecated
The author of this template hasn't been active for a very very long time. There are likely better ways to accomplish what this template set out to do, now, 15 years after it was originally written.

Using this template
Place this at the top of any article that you think might have updates in the future. Since our policy here at Wikinews is to create a new article when a story develops, multiple articles should be tied together so a user reading an older story can find the most recent developments.

To use this template correctly, make sure to create (or re-use) a story name. This should be pretty generic. For example, if there was a sighting of Elvis in 2007, one might name the article Elvis appears in Cincinnati bar. Since a future article will probably be named Elvis reappearance a "hoax" says Cincinnati martial arts instructor, you'll probably want to name the story "2007 reappearance of Elvis".

The story name isn't directly viewable to users, and is distinct from the name of the article. Keep in mind that the name of the story persists across articles, so 25 articles spanning 6 months may all still have the same "story". A good example of this would be the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina. Over the course of two years, developments continue to occur. However, all of them are related to Hurricane Katrina. Thus, the story name in this case could be "Hurricane Katrina", or even "New Orleans destroyed by Hurricane Katrina".

Once you've chosen an appropriate name for the story, you'd use it on your first article like this:

Note that nothing will appear on your article immediately! This tag only inserts something in your article once you create a second article which updates your first article.

So, say it's finally revealed that the King is really dead, and it was all a lie. For your second article, use this:

Now stop and take a deep breath. After a little while, once a bot notices you put this new tag on your second article, your first article will magically show an update notice, linking to your second article!

Say that there is even more information somehow, like the guy we all thought was Elvis drove off of an overpass. That might require a third article which would contain:

Now both of your first and second articles will link to the third! Like magic.

All you need to do is make sure the story name stays the same, and make sure the update number goes up for all the newer articles. The older articles will all point to the article with the highest "update" number.
