 Have there been any reports of extrajudicial killings in Bangladesh?

The Bangladeshi government should authorize an independent investigation into a recent spate of alleged extrajudicial killings by security forces, Human Rights Watch (HRW) said on Monday. The government should publicly order law enforcement agencies to ensure the safety of all those taken into custody.
Joint Forces consisting of the Bangladesh Police, the Rapid Action Battalion (RAB), and the Border Guards Bangladesh continue to arrest opposition supporters, some of whom are accused of involvement in violent protests before and during the January 5, 2014 elections which were boycotted by opposition parties. Security forces claim that the deaths after arrest occurred during “crossfire,” which Human Rights Watch has previously documented is used by security forces as a common euphemism to describe what they claim to be shootouts, but which in reality appears to be the killing of people already in detention.
On January 21, the State Minister for Home Affairs Asaduzzaman Khan Kamal said that the Joint Forces were engaged in an operation against “terrorists” and that none of those involved in violence before the elections “will be spared.” More than 150 people died before the polls, the bloodiest in Bangladesh’s history. Many were ordinary citizens whose vehicles were set on fire by opposition supporters.
Two members of Jamaat-e-Islami’s student wing died in similar circumstances in Satkhira on January 26. The police said that Abul Kalam and Maruf died after receiving wounds during a gunfight a day after they were arrested. The police said that they were leading the Joint Forces to a place where other suspects were hiding when the security forces came under attack. Police said three police officers were injured.
Another Jamaat member, Tarique Mohammad Saiful Islam, was killed in alleged “crossfire” on January 20, a day after he was arrested. The police said he died while leading investigators to a place where Jamaat activists were hiding firearms.
In each case the police said they only opened fire after coming under attack.
Also among those who have died recently are two BNP members accused of involvement in one of the worst incidents of pre-election violence. Atiqul Islam Atiq and Golam Rabbani were both wanted by the police in connection with an attack on the motorcade of ruling party Member of Parliament Asaduzzaman Noor,on December 14, 2013.
According to the police, the attackers killed five people, including four members of the Awami League. The police charged 1,500 people with involvement in the attack and named 14 ringleaders, including Atiqul Islam Atiq and Golam Rabbani. According to a relative of Atiq, he was taken from his house, along with a cousin, Mohidul Islam, on January 13, 2014, by five or six men who said they were from the detective branch of the police. The police told family members that he was first taken to Deldowar police station and then to Tangail district headquarters. Atiq’s body was subsequently discovered by the side of a road on January 20 with a bullet injury to the back of the head. Mohidul Islam is still missing.
According to relatives, Golam Rabbani was taken away by a large group of men at dawn on January 15. The men wore black uniforms resembling those of the RAB, but they were not carrying rifles. The RAB does not have a camp in the area, and denied any knowledge of Rabbani’s detention when questioned informally through friends and relatives who work for the RAB. The police also denied knowledge of his whereabouts. Rabbani’s body was found on January 19 with two bullet wounds to his head and a rope around his neck. A relative who saw his corpse said it was bruised in several places, suggesting he had been tortured.
Rabbani’s wife, Shahnaz Begum, told Human Rights Watch that he should have been put on trial and punished if found guilty. “I would even have accepted him being hanged after a proper trial. But what happened to him was murder and I seek justice from the Bangladeshi government,” she said.

 Describe the process of stellar seismology.

Scientists have recorded the sound of three stars similar to our Sun using France's Corot space telescope.
A team writing in Science journal says the sounds have enabled them to get information about processes deep within stars for the first time.
If you listen closely to the sounds of each star - by clicking on the media in this page - you'll hear a regular repeating pattern.
These indicate that the entire star is pulsating.
You'll also note that the sound of one star is very slightly different to the other. That's because the sound they make depends on their age, size and chemical composition.
The technique, called "stellar seismology", is becoming increasingly popular among astronomers because the sounds give an indication of what is going on in the stars' interior.
Just as seismic waves moving through Earth provide information about our planet's insides, so sound waves travelling through a star carry information about its inner workings.
The Corot spacecraft detects the oscillations as subtle variations in the light emitted by the star as the surface wobbles. This light signal can then be converted back to sounds we understand.
According to Professor Eric Michel, of the Paris Observatory, the technique is already giving researchers remarkable new insights.
He commented: "This is a completely new way to look at the stars compared with what has been available for the past 50 years. It is very exciting."
Professor Michel has found that the star pulsations are close to what was predicted for stars of this kind.
But there is a slight variation from what was expected.
The variation suggests that astronomers might need to refine their theories of stellar evolution.
Professor Ian Roxburgh of Queen Mary College London is among those trying to work out what the sounds from the stars tell us about processes occurring inside stars.
"It's not easy," he says. "It's like listening to the sound of a musical instrument and then trying to reconstruct the shape of the instrument".
Astronomers are increasingly listening into stars and other space sounds, according to Dr Tim O'Brien, of Manchester University's Jodrell Bank Centre for Astrophysics.
"It's interesting in itself," he said. "It's also scientifically useful."
Dr O'Brien has collected his favourite space sounds in the Jodrell Bank podcast, known as the Jodcast.
"All you are really doing when you're collecting stuff from space is that you've got to get that information into your brain so you can think about it," he explained in his podcast.
"And what we're used to doing is putting visual information into our brain - well there's no real reason why we shouldn't listen to signals."

 Tell me how Putin, Clinton, and an eccentric American all played a role in Russia's attempts to influence the US election.

For a couple decades, Vladimir Putin has been behind the wheel in Russia.
His attempts to advance Russia’s standing in the world have been frustrated by sanctions, all while he has seen his nation’s neighbors move ahead with relative ease.
In general, Russia was being punished because of Putin’s boundary issues.
It’s hard to overstate how much Putin truly hates the former secretary of state.
…but so did her allies.
…tried to emasculate him on the world stage.
She totally got in his head.
Meanwhile, there was this eccentric American who loved calling people in the media to say all sorts of nonsense.
He was largely ignored by his peers.
He wasn’t seen as a threat.
His folks from the Internet Research Agency in St. Petersburg said they could help.
…and make his life much, much easier.
Their plan put a smile on Putin’s usually grim face.
…who were unable to distinguish between facts and fake news.
…who also were feeling the effects of the sanctions.
He reassured them that they had nothing to worry about.
So they put the plan into motion.
Yes, it was quite easy. Countless Americans were duped into helping Putin without ever realizing they were eating up stuff created by Russians.
As for Clinton, she tried to push back against all the propaganda.
Nevertheless, it fell on mostly deaf ears, because most Americans were less than thrilled about having her as their leader.
…leaving us more vulnerable to future incursions by eroding trust in our democratic institutions.
Essentially, Putin strolled into America and tore down many of our highest ideals.
Driven by decades of frustration, he and his team worked tirelessly to destroy the things that make our representative republic function. They were initially pleased with the results.
The whole time, the eccentric, nonsense-spouting American watched what was happening to the nation with wide-eyed wonder.
…with some prominent Americans involved in politics.
Those Americans have disavowed all knowledge and involvement in helping the Russians launder money.
…Putin from doing what he wanted.
…the Russians realized their plan had worked too well for their own good.
They knew Clinton losing would draw unwanted attention to their involvement.
Some have compared it to bank robbers attempting to break into a safe with explosives but ending up blowing the whole thing to smithereens.
…who proceeded to destroy the republic.

 Compare and contrast traditional software development methodologies with agile software development methodologies.

The recent trend in software development has been to produce less documentation and writing material. Many developers have interpreted the Agile Manifesto preference of “working software over comprehensive documentation” as the authorization to stop producing any document during a project. This has been translated in sentences like “the code is the documentation” or “the requirements are in the application”.
There have been certainly many projects that have produced documentation only for the sake of documenting. You could have heard the famous tale about the 200 pages requirements document that contained a sentence like “the first one who would report reading this section will receive 100 dollars”. Remember however that the Agile Manifesto says ” while there is value in the items on the right, we value the items on the left more.” There are many aspects of software development that will benefit from writing more than code and there is certainly value in doing this. If I didn’t believe that writing material has some value for software developers, Methods & Tools would contain only code listings.
For me the first benefit of writing is to validate if things are clear in your mind. If you think you understand something or know what the design of your code will be, having difficulty to write it is a sign that maybe you should try to think more about it. The benefits are not in the results but in the process. It is the same thing when you try to define acceptance criteria for a requirement. If it is difficult to write a description or some functional tests for it, then your requirement is maybe not so clear.
There is also some specification of the software that cannot be found in the code. If the first screen of your web site or mobile application has to be loaded below a certain amount of time, you need a place to keep this information. If your screens have to respect accessibility standards, you also need a document to register this information. Agile software development recommends sometimes to use “soft” material like index cards or post-it to manage requirements information. However, good applications have a life span that is longer than their development time… and often their development team. I don’t think that organizations will want to keep forever meeting room walls full of index cards. You need a support that can be available for a long period and that has search capabilities. Over the time, there will always be people asking questions about the features of the software. Having the original requirements written down somewhere will allow you to answer if the application is working as specified or if you have introduced a bug in it. Yes, bugs still exist, even if you try to follow an Agile software development approach ;o) So my advice is that you should keep writing down requirements and other useful information about your application: do it for you and for your colleagues.
* Is “agile documentation” an oxymoron?
* Is Documentation Really Wasted Effort?
First of all, this isn’t recent. It started when software development came under the purview of hobbyists, and frankly, there it has remained ever since. Prior to the home computer “revolution”, code was the last thing that was written. Specs, testing, etc., were all written before hand, and documentation was maintained during the process. I’ve worked on enough of these well-funded projects to have experienced the difference. Take for example the code that was written for the moon landing missions or the space shuttle. Every line commented, tested, etc.
Agile is a thoughtful but still knee-jerk reaction to a bad situation, brought on not just by degreed garage shack programmers but also by companies that cut costs by forcing ridiculous development schedules, little up front design time, and very little testing / documentation support. I’ve worked for a billion dollar aerospace firm, and the short-sighted management refused to let the engineers spend the necessary time to meet and flesh out the design of the wirelist generation software up front, something that would have saved the company millions every year and greatly reduced wiring errors.
I totally agree with you. For years I have heard coders say, “The code is self-documenting”. I could only silently scream when I hear them say that. After coding for 40 years now, I have had my share of supporting other people’s code as well as some of my own that I have had the privilege some 10 years after inception and I still concur.
When selecting a book or a magazine to read, dont we look at the table of contents and the typefont to get a feel for how easy it will be to assimulate what the author has to say?
As another crusty old engineer, it’s true that this desire to avoid documentation – or find ‘easy’ ways to reduce it – are not new, but it’s nice to see a new article taking a stand to say it’s important to maintain the extra work required to fill that human understanding between code and the end need.
“although the right items are important, we value the items left over” This is the statement that comes right after the agile manifesto. Many ignore and resolve only consider working software over comprehensive documentation. Your criticism are correct however you made ??a mistake by generalizing agile projects as if they were just a wall full of papers. This is a very simplistic view. The post-its are just a tool. The agile management process is much more than that. And yes the documentation is done, but it is usually stored in management tools. The advantage is that now it is in fact what was built. Very different documentation than 30 years ago it was a photo of the initial vision of the project and the first transition was outdated.

 Describe the results of the election recount efforts in Wisconsin and Pennsylvania.

Presidential election recount efforts came to an end Monday in Pennsylvania and Wisconsin, with both states certifying Republican Donald Trump as the winner in contests that helped put him over the top in the Electoral College stakes.
Trump’s victory in Wisconsin was reaffirmed following a statewide vote recount that showed him defeating Democrat Hillary Clinton by nearly 23,000 votes. Meanwhile, a federal judge issued a stinging rejection of a Green Party-backed request for a presidential recount in Pennsylvania that complained the state’s reliance on aging electronic voting machines made it highly vulnerable to hacking.
Stein got only about 1 percent of the vote in each of the three states, which Trump narrowly won over Clinton. Stein argued, without evidence, that voting machines in all three states were susceptible to hacking. All three states were crucial to Trump’s victory, having last voted for a Republican for president in the 1980s.
Trump took to Twitter to celebrate the recount result.
Stein said she was disappointed not all Wisconsin counties did hand recounts, although most did. She said the goal of the recount was never to change the outcome but to validate the vote and restore confidence in the system.
“The recount in Wisconsin raised a number of important election integrity issues that bear further assessment and serious action to ensure we have integrity and confidence in our electoral system,” she said, without naming what they were.
Wisconsin Elections Commission Chairman Mark Thomsen said before certifying the recount results there was no evidence of a hack.
In Pennsylvania, state officials certified the results of the election in the hours following the decision by U.S. District Judge Paul S. Diamond.
Diamond said there were at least six grounds that required him to reject the Green Party’s lawsuit, which had been opposed by Trump, the Pennsylvania Republican Party and the Pennsylvania attorney general’s office.
Suspicion of a hacked Pennsylvania election “borders on the irrational” while granting the Green Party’s recount bid could “ensure that no Pennsylvania vote counts” given Tuesday’s federal deadline to certify the vote for the Electoral College, wrote Diamond, an appointee of Republican former President George W. Bush.
He said the lawsuit suffered from a lack of standing, potentially the lack of federal jurisdiction and an “unexplained, highly prejudicial” wait before filing last week’s lawsuit, four weeks after the Nov. 8 election.
The decision was the Green Party’s latest roadblock in Pennsylvania after hitting numerous walls in county and state courts. Green Party-backed lawyers argue it was possible that computer hackers changed the election outcome and that Pennsylvania’s heavy use of paperless machines makes it a prime target. Stein also contended Pennsylvania has erected unconstitutional barriers to voters seeking a recount.
A lawyer for the Green Party members said Monday they were disappointed and unable to immediately say whether they would appeal.
Levy reported from Harrisburg, Pennsylvania. Bauer reported from Madison, Wisconsin.

 What do you think of fear in the world of advertising?

I recently saw the Bob Marley documentary that came out last year. Insightful, inspirational, touching stuff.
I was quite struck by a story relating to The Wailers’ early career in Kingston. Their manager would take them to rehearse late at night in the local cemetery. He believed that if they could conquer their fear of ‘duppies’ (spirits), they could also conquer any stage fright.
We often talk of advertising as a business fuelled by confidence. And it’s true. Confidence gives you the courage to be honest, to be different, to challenge conventions. Confidence is the foundation of sustained success.
But I have also found that the reverse is true: agencies run on fear.
Fear of corporate change, competitive threat and Client whim. Fear of forgetting, of fluffing one’s lines. Fear of fashion, of falling behind and falling apart. Fear of failure. Fear that the latest success may be the last. Fear of complacency, of hubris. Fear of lost relevance. Fear of irrelevance. Fear of redundancy. Not just losing your job, but losing your utility. Fear that your best years are behind you. And your worst meeting is in front of you.
As Nigel Bogle has been wont to warn, even in the good years, ‘We’re three phone calls away from disaster’.
I still go into every presentation with an awkward feeling in the pit of my stomach. And under sustained pressure I develop painfully itchy shins. Hardly the romance of a saint’s stigmata. Faintly ridiculous really. But nonetheless a physical manifestation of stress, anxiety, doubt.
John Hegarty once bumped into our Levi’s Client in Reception. The Client said he was worried because the proposed print route was a bit risky. Rather than reassure him that it wasn’t at all dangerous, John said, ‘You’re right. It is risky. I’m worried it might even be a mistake, possibly a disaster.’ And then he marched briskly on to his next meeting.
But whilst fear in moderation may be useful, attractive even, fear in excess is paralysing, corrosive. You see it in the eyes of the team whose competence has been questioned, whose business has been put up for pitch, whose job is on the line.
So I suspect we could still do with a little singing in the cemetery. We still need a means to confront our darkest paranoias, to defeat our deepest doubts. Of course in a modern, sanitised age we don’t have ‘duppies’, ghosts and ghouls. Maybe, post Freud, just articulating our misgivings is healthy. Maybe we ought to give more time to sharing our angst, anxieties, apprehensions.
Excellent blogpost. Really like the analogy.

 Explain the current issues with rating videos and how it could be changed to better promote newsworthy videos on Youtube and other platforms.

Many online have been working very hard to bring news of Iran and the events after the election, and one of those methods is to upload and spread news of videos of the protests and other related events. One nearly effortless way to promote a video is to give it a high rating which may result in it making this list for example.
At first glance, the ratings system seems pretty straightforward: videos go from awesome to pretty cool, to worth watching, then nothing special, and finally poor.
There's a problem with this though - take a video like this one. It's a somewhat grainy video called Basij Militia driving truck through the Iranian protesters". It's definitely a video that the world needs to see, but it just doesn't feel right to give the video an Awesome! rating. There's nothing awesome about a truck being driven into protesters, and the image quality is not awesome; nevertheless, it's a video that needs to be promoted.
When you think about it, giving a video five stars simply means "more people should see this video" and one star means "I wouldn't recommend this to anyone". At the moment there's a bit of confusion when you see a video of something you don't like but think should be seen by others -- as another example, let's say you're a supporter of a political candidate and you see his opponent saying something dumb - do you give it five stars because others should see it or do you give it one star because you don't like the person?
Now the ratings system is clear - you're either telling others to watch the video or not.
As for where to suggest this - perhaps here? Let me know if there's a better place to make the suggestion.
Somewhat agree, though I think ratings tend to sway from 1 star only to 5 stars only with very little grey-area.
ironically, 'awesome' is precisely the correct term for that video: having the power to inspire fear, reverence or dread.
of course, youtube is using it incorrectly in almost all other cases.
***** should mean the world must see this!
or cool, but necessary. I absolutely agree with your evaluation.
MUST SEE and STAY AWAY.
Like many others, I've been a YouTuber a long time, and in my opinion you are absolutely right.
Changing the rating system to something a little more specific would would make life on YouTube a lot easier for both producers (they would be able to easily tell which of their videos sunk or sailed), and the average watcher.
Quick, somebody tell YouTube about this idea ASAP!!
I put a link to this page.
glad you acted on your thoughts of the rating system and made it public -- Thanks!!
I just submitted the feed back for changing the rating system to youtube. The more people submit the better chances of them changing it! Just takes a couple minutes please do it!
youtube has a ratings system?
Agreed 100%! This logic should be applied to Facebook's "Like" link too. For example, I've seen a lot of videos of Iranian protests through Facebook. Hitting Like on videos where people get hurt/shot just isn't right.

 What was the classification system used for Pennsylvania Railroad locomotives? Respond in 4 sentences.

Locomotive classification on the Pennsylvania Railroad took several forms. Early on, steam locomotives were given single-letter classes. As the 26 letters were quickly assigned, that scheme was abandoned for a more complex system. This was used for all of the PRR's steam locomotives, and — with the exception of the final type bought (the E44) — all electric locomotives also used this scheme.

 Respond in 3 sentences. What does the Protection of Animals Act 1934 have to do with rodeos?

The Protection of Animals Act 1934 was an act of the British parliament effectively making rodeo, as it then existed, illegal in England, Scotland and Wales. The law was based upon the perceived cruelty to animals exhibited at western rodeos brought by promotions such as Tex Austin's 1924 "King of the Rodeo" exhibition at Wembley Stadium in 1924, the first such program in England.
The act was repealed and replaced by the Animal Welfare Act 2006 and the Animal Health and Welfare (Scotland) Act 2006 respectively.

 Describe a situation in which an individual advocated for a new emergency lighting system after they were involved in an accident.

Darren Beer thinks he is lucky to be alive.
He was driving along a pitch-black Eyre Highway at 110kph with 12 hours of travel to go before reaching Perth, when his high beams lit up the underbelly of an overturned truck.
"Out of nowhere, no time to react … the only time I knew it was there was when I was on it," Mr Beer told the ABC from his Royal Perth Hospital bed this week.
"It was like a brick wall … then that was it, just a bounce — I remember the pain."
He did not know it at the time, but the 46-year-old shattered his foot, broke his elbow in half, fractured his ribs and snapped his kneecap in the crash in the early hours of October 12.
But his broken body was not his only concern.
"My car had actually caught fire," he said.
"Luckily the people that were there had a fire extinguisher and were able to put that out, because if they hadn't I believe I wouldn't be telling the story."
West Australian Police said the truck had overturned about 30 minutes earlier, blocking both lanes of the highway.
The truck driver and passenger suffered serious but non-life threatening injuries.
Mr Beer said passing motorists had stopped to help the truck driver and his passenger, but no-one was on the opposite side of the truck.
He said the truck's dark underside blended in with the road and there were no lights working on the damaged vehicle.
The former tow truck driver was trapped in his car for more than two hours waiting for emergency crews to arrive from the small mining community of Norseman.
"I didn't think I was going to make it," he said.
"At times like that you go numb, you think of your family, the people that you care about and if they are ever going to see you again."
He was eventually airlifted to Perth where he remained in hospital for seven days.
Mr Beer believed his ordeal highlighted the need for an emergency lighting system to trigger in the event of a crash, or something as simple as a reflective item to be installed on the underside of heavy vehicles.
"Just something that would give someone in my situation [a warning] because when a truck has overturned, it is complete darkness because there are no street lights out there," he said.
"There's nothing to warn you that it's there."
Mr Beer's campaign has already reached WA Police Minister Michelle Roberts.
"On face value, that seems like a really good idea and certainly appears to have some merit, so I'll be discussing this with the road safety commissioner," the Minister said.
"I'll ask [the commissioner] to consult with industry and provide me with advice, because if there are some simple things that can be done that would save lives in the future, I'm confident they would be keen to pursue that."
WA Road Transport Association executive officer Cam Dumesny said the idea was worth investigating.
"It certainly makes sense. We would work with government to see if it's worth progressing and has merit," he said.

 This could be the answer to an instruction to explain the effects of President Donald Trump and Secretary Betsy DeVos' proposed budget on education programs in the U.S.

New York City educator and author Brian Jones examines one section of the Trump administration budget: Betsy DeVos' frightening plan to gut the department she runs.
IN A recent op-ed for the Wall Street Journal, Education Secretary Betsy DeVos wrote: "Every decision I make as secretary of education is considered through a single, focused lens: How does this affect an individual student?"
Based on the new education budget that she and her boss Donald Trump are proposing, though, it appears that there are a few million "individual students" that DeVos has overlooked.
According to a summary posted on the White House website on May 23, the Trump-DeVos proposal would cut $9 billion from the federal government's education budget--a 13 percent reduction. A "blueprint" document released a few days earlier outlined a host of specific education programs slated for elimination.
Many commentators predicted a budget this devastating couldn't pass in Congress in its present form. But even if this is just where the bargaining begins, public education is in great danger.
The dynamic duo--DeVos and Trump--are proposing to eliminate outright the $2.4 billion Supporting Effective Instruction State Grants program, which funds teacher training and class size reductions.
Half of this money is used to make class sizes smaller by paying approximately 9,000 teachers' salaries, roughly 70 percent of them in the nation's poorest school districts. I personally have not visited all of these schools, but I am 100 percent certain that individual students go to them, and that many of them benefit from greater individual attention because of the smaller class sizes.
The Trump-DeVos budget would eliminate the 21st Century Community Learning Centers program, which funds before- and after-school programs serving 1.6 million students. That's a lot of individuals. More than 70 percent of these individual students also participate in a free or reduced lunch program.
Documents leaked to the Washington Post apparently reveal further cruel cuts--to adult literacy, arts education, foreign language and college loan forgiveness programs.
BUT NOT everything in the Education Department budget is being cut with the aim of "Making America Great Again."
The proposal "places power in the hands of parents and families to choose schools that are best for their children," the blueprint reads, "by investing an additional $1.4 billion in school choice programs." That's $168 million for more charter schools, $250 million for a new private school choice program, plus a $1 billion increase in Title I funding to incentivize districts to let per-pupil funding "follow the students" to the schools of their choice.
As Jeff Bryant noted at Truth-out, doing violence to the public school system is a logical way to promote "choice."
With larger class sizes, less teacher training, fewer resources for arts and foreign languages and no affordable after-school programs, parents will have no choice but to "choose" to take their individual children out of public schools and seek alternatives via charter schools and voucher plans.
Never mind that charter schools continue to underperform traditional public schools. Never mind that charters have been repeatedly linked to a pattern of increasing racial segregation.
Never mind that voucher initiatives have frequently been rejected by voters in "red" states because they effectively rob funding from public schools. Never mind that "school choice" schemes consistently fail to redistribute resources to the students who need them the most--and usually do the opposite.
As Donna Nevel and Ujju Aggarwal point out in a study of the connection between "choice" and segregation in New York City, "[T]he mechanisms of exclusion have shifted some over time, but the result remains the same: choice for some and exclusion for others."
A lengthy New York Times investigation into New York City's high school choice program concluded that the hierarchy of wealth and privilege was merely reproduced because, "Ultimately, there just are not enough good schools to go around." The Trump-DeVos budget, if approved, would make this problem worse.
JENNIFER BERKSHIRE'S report for Jacobin on the connection between "school choice" and the Christian right suggests that the "individuals" DeVos really has in mind with each decision she makes are her friends who are eager to channel public dollars into the coffers of private schools--especially private religious schools.
But this isn't just a right-wing conspiracy to promote the schools its ideologues prefer. The latest school privatization moves build logically on the arguments and policies put forward by President Barack Obama and his Education Secretary Arne Duncan. "[I]t is Democrats who have pushed to redefine public education in one city after another as an individual parent choice to be exercised in a competitive marketplace, rather than a collective, community good," Berkshire writes.
If the Trump-DeVos budget is devastating news for most students--individually and collectively--there is some good news in the proposal for a few individuals in Washington, D.C.
According to the Washington Post, "Trump is seeking an additional $158 million for salaries and expenses in the Education Department, up 7 percent, money that according to the budget documents would go toward loan-servicing costs, improved information-technology security, auditing and investigations and additional security costs for the secretary. DeVos has contracted with the U.S. Marshals Service to provide security rather than using the in-house security team that guarded previous secretaries."
Looking out at the education landscape her proposed budget would create, DeVos is apparently worried about the safety of one individual in particular: herself.
New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo has backed off his worst threats against City University of New York, but challenges remain.

 Have you heard about the Miracle Team in Egypt?

CAIRO (Reuters) - A group of Egyptian soccer players have formed a team for one-legged players, hoping to start league for disabled players in the country.
“The Miracle Team,” consists of twenty-five players from across Egypt who meet twice a week to train on a pitch in Cairo. While the team began training in freestyle soccer - a non-competitive art where players perform tricks with a ball - they soon decided to aim higher.
“I started bringing the people in and coach Yousry, the team coach, called me to start training me on freestyle football,” team captain Mahmoud Ibrahim Tawfik, who lost a leg in a road accident more than 20 years ago, told Reuters.
“In each governorate we are asking the players to form a team to spread the game,” said team coach Yousry Mohamed Ibrahim.

 What can you tell me about "The Mystery of Dragon Seal: Journey to China"?

‘The Mystery of Dragon Seal: Journey to China’ promises to be one of the most spectacular movies next year, and audiences will get a chance to see a fight between Jackie Chan and Arnold Schwarzenegger.
Filming of the first Sino-Russian blockbuster The Mystery of Dragon Seal: Journey to China starring Arnold Schwarzenegger and Jackie Chan has been wrapped up. Directed by Oleg Stepchenko, the film will be released during Chinese New Year in February 2018. So what we know about one of next year’s most anticipated movies?
The movie is the sequel to 2014’s Viy, which was based on the famous novel by Nikolay Gogol.
Viy tells the story of English traveler and cartographer Jonathan Green (played by Jason Flemyng), who in the early 18th century finds himself in a small village lost in the impassable woods of Western Ukraine. Here, Green is forced to face ancient demons including the terrifying and legendary Viy.
In the new movie Green receives an order from Russian Emperor Peter the Great to map Russia’s Far East.
His adventures lead him to China, where he’ll make a number of breathtaking discoveries, meet Chinese princesses, and face mythological creatures including the fearsome Dragon King.
Aside from Flemyng, Schwarzenegger, and Chan, Rutger Hauer and Charles Dance also star.
According to one of the movie’s producers - Alexey Petrukhin - Schwarzenegger plays one of the main characters.
The former governor of California said that when the producers sent him the script, he said “Wow!” He instantly fell in love with his character and didn’t think twice about signing up.
Schwarzenegger will play the Constable of London Tower, and he will stage a mixed marital arts fights among the prisoners - with the winner being granted his freedom.
Petrukhin refused to reveal any plot details, but did say the audience will be treated to an epic battle between Schwarzenegger and Chan.
A total of 690 specialists from eight countries worked on the film, which was shot in both Russia and China.
Huge sets were created (21 all together) including an impressive model of the Tower of London in Beijing.
According to the producers, the tower’s interiors even included details like 18th engravings, while more than 500 candles were required to light it up.
The largest chroma key screen in the history of the Russian cinema was built (a green screen used to project animated backgrounds and effects) at the Mosfilm studio in Moscow. To create a realistic forest scene with snow, living trees were placed in the studio and covered in special fake snow from France.
Russian cinematographers and producers hope The Mystery of Dragon Seal: Journey to China will make an impact on the Asian market. The Russian and Chinese investors split the eye watering $49 million budget down the middle.
According to Petrukhin, hopes are high that the film will rake in big profits in China. Russia’s cinema market is considerably smaller, so the financial success of the movie hinges on the Chinese interest.
The film has not escaped the attention of some high-ranking officials, with President Xi Jinping personally supporting the release of The Mystery of Dragon Seal: Journey to China during a speech at the One belt, One Road Forum.
The third movie in the Viy series is already in the pipeline and likely to be realised in 2019, Petrukhin told RIA Novosti.
Journey to India: On the Threshold of Immortality will again be produced by Russia and China, but India will also back the project. Several scenes have already been filmed, Petrukhin said.
The grandson of the famous Indian actor Raj Kapoor, and one of the highest paid actors in Bollywood, Ranbir Kapoor, will both play leading roles in the third Viy film.
The so-called “King of Bollywood” Shah Rukh Khan will also participate in the project both as an actor and producer.
The details of the plot are not known at the moment.

 Explain the concepts of Key-Value Observing and lazy initialization in relation to Swift properties.

Today we'll look at a couple more tips for working in Swift. This time, we'll focus on Swift properties. Let's dive in.
In Objective-C, we'd likely use Key-Value Observing to "know" when the value of a property on one of our objects changes.
"Lazy" initialization is a great way to put off expensive work until some later time in our code. Back in Objective-C, if we wanted to "lazily" initialize a property, we might go override it's getter, and check if a private instance variable is nil or not, then populate it if it's not, then return it. Whew!
We can also use this technique to lazily init our UI elements, neat!

 What is bridge?

More than 200 kids played in a recent national youth tournament held in Washington.
When Reginald Smith heard about a bridge club at his school, he thought he and his friends “would be building” — making model bridges or learning about construction.
“But then I found out that it was cards,” he said late last month, standing outside a bustling ballroom at the Marriott Wardman Park hotel in Washington. More than 200 young bridge players were swirling around him, finishing lunch and preparing for their next match.
“And,” he said, “I found out that it was something I could dominate at because I’m good at math,” which helps with keeping track of what cards have and have not been played.
Reginald, 14, has been playing bridge for the past four years as part of a club at Oakwood Avenue Community School in Orange, New Jersey. He and about a dozen club members drove from Orange to compete in the ninth annual Youth North American Bridge Championships, a weekend-long tournament that started July 28.
Many people think that bridge is just a complicated card game played by senior citizens in retirement homes. It’s true that bridge isn’t as popular as it was in the mid-20th century. But more and more kids are playing it and enjoying it. This year’s Youth NABC, put on by the American Contract Bridge League, was the organization’s largest tournament for kids. Forty players even came from China to compete.
Bridge is a four-person game played with teams of two. To win, your team needs to win tricks: sets of four cards, one from each player. Players bid on how many tricks they think they can win and are dealt 13 cards. The first card that is played in the trick determines the lead suit (spades, hearts, diamonds or clubs). Then, going around the table, whoever plays the highest card in that lead suit wins the trick.
Things get complex during the bidding process, when players can also determine a trump suit. Cards in a trump suit can win any trick, making them particularly valuable.
“The hardest part about the game, for me, is bidding,” said Snehal Oberai, 12, whose mother taught her to play bridge about four years ago. “You have to know a lot of things: how to deal with the cards in your hand and how to communicate with your partner,” without saying such things as “I have some really great cards,” so they know the strength of your hand.
The American Contract Bridge League manages tournaments and offers bridge-in-school programs across the country. Its website (acbl.org) has free instructional software and guides for new players. Two Washington-area groups, the Washington Bridge League (districtsix.org) and Northern Virginia Bridge Association (nvba.org), offer programs at schools across the region. The NVBA also arranges games between kids and residents at a retirement community in Springfield.

 What is your opinion on Sheriff David Clarke and Trump's potential appointment of him to the Department of Homeland Security? Respond in 33 sentences.

Trump’s favorite lawman wants to shred the Constitution and abandon habeas corpus.
Not since Richard Nixon hightailed it out of Washington to avoid impeachment has a resignation by a public official been so welcomed as that of Milwaukee County Sheriff David Clarke.
Cruel and unusual, bombastic and autocratic, Clarke wore out his welcome years ago. Yet Clarke lingered on the local scene—playing a crude politics of division in Wisconsin’s largest county, where he remained an exceptionally controversial elected official until he quit Thursday.
Unfortunately, the people of the United States may not be able to rest soundly.
The arguments against making Clarke part of this administration are many—and they are profound.
Trump and Clarke know that the scandal-plagued lawman could not stand the scrutiny of a confirmation hearing that would focus on the former sheriff’s miserable record—at least five people have died in the Milwaukee County Jail, which Clarke managed, since 2016—and his authoritarian disregard for civil rights and civil liberties.
It is clear by now that, if Clarke gets any White House post, the threat this administration poses to the Bill of Rights will increase.
Trump has been busy shredding the Constitution since he took office. But he can’t do it on his own. He needs help to advance an agenda that aggressively assaults the rule of law, the separation of powers, freedom of the press, and the basic liberties of Americans.
Trump’s got Attorney General Jeff Sessions on the job of attacking voting-rights and civil-rights protections. He’s got House Speaker Paul Ryan and Senate majority leader Mitch McConnell shutting down the system of checks and balances. But the work of undermining basic liberties is a big task, even for an authoritarian president.
Clarke would like to help.
The former sheriff announced earlier this year that he would become an assistant secretary in the Trump administration’s Department of Homeland Security. That did not happen because the news that Clarke might go to DHS sparked an examination of a record that made the president’s bluster about “enemy of the state” journalism and religious targeting of refugees seem mild by comparison.
Clarke refers to progressives who advocate for equality and equal protection under the law as “rat bastards on the left.” And he leaves no doubt about what he would do with power.
Milwaukee County Sheriff David A. Clarke Jr. wants to bring the war on terror to the home front. Clarke, who is in the running for a top job in President-elect Donald Trump’s administration, says in his upcoming memoir that the US needs a major overhaul of its homeland security program. Authorities, he writes, should treat American citizens suspected of being terrorists as ‘enemy combatants’ who can be questioned without an attorney, arrested by authorities and held indefinitely.
Clarke’s new book, Cop Under Fire: Moving Beyond Hashtags of Race, Crime and Politics for a Better America, is packed with “we are at war” language and talk of operating “under a war-time model.” He advocates for rounding up Americans who are perceived as threats, suspending their rights, holding them indefinitely, and handling cases with military tribunals rather than the courts.
“We have no idea how many people out there have pledged allegiance or are supporting ISIS, giving aid and comfort, but I would suggest hundreds of thousands, I would suggest maybe a million,” Clarke said.
It’s just a guess. And then you take the known terrorists that are here, and you think we’re going to arrest all these people and put them in jails and then sentence them to prison? It’s idiotic. [Send them to] Gitmo and hold them indefinitely under a suspension of habeas corpus.
How broad a brush does Clarke paint with when he is discussing threats to America?
We have several forces internal and external attacking our rule of law: ISIS, Black Lives Matter, Occupy Wall Street—just the most recent iterations of the elements who brand themselves as unique but seek the same revolutionary aim: take down the West, the philosophy of equality before the law, and replace it with their authority, their rules, their hate.
Sheriff David Clarke is a bigot who has allowed numerous people—including an infant—to die or be brutally tortured in his jails and on his watch. Clarke’s actions and beliefs are directly at odds with American values and have no place in our government at any level. It’s shameful that Clarke still holds a job in law enforcement, and appalling that Trump wants to give him a promotion.
Clarke does discuss the Bill of Rights and Constitution in detail in other sections of his memoir, including a chapter on gun rights and another on a proposed Convention of the States—though he dates the writing of the Constitution, incorrectly, to 1776 instead of 1787.

 What can you tell me about Graham Island?

Graham Island (also Graham Bank or Graham Shoal; ) is a submerged volcanic island in the Mediterranean Sea. It was discovered when it last appeared on 1 August 1831 by Humphrey Fleming Senhouse, the captain of the first rate Royal Navy ship of the line "St Vincent" and named after Sir James Graham, the First Lord of the Admiralty. It was claimed by the United Kingdom. It forms part of the underwater volcano Empedocles, south of Sicily, and which is one of a number of submarine volcanoes known as the Campi Flegrei del Mar di Sicilia. Seamount eruptions have raised it above sea level several times before erosion submerged it again.
When it last rose above sea level after erupting in 1831, a four-way dispute over its sovereignty began, which was still unresolved when it disappeared beneath the waves again in early 1832. During its brief life, French geologist Constant Prévost was on hand, accompanied by an artist, to witness it in July 1831; he named it "Île Julia", for its July appearance, and reported in the "Bulletin de la Société Géologique de France". Some observers at the time wondered if a chain of mountains would spring up, linking Sicily to Tunisia and thus upsetting the geopolitics of the region. It showed signs of volcanic activity in 2000 and 2002, forecasting a possible appearance; however, it remains under sea level.

 Have you heard about the new Harry Potter covers?

Have a look at these beautiful new covers by artist Brian Selznick, published to celebrate Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone’s big 20th anniversary in the US.
Best-selling author and award-winning artist Brian Selznick has reimagined all seven Harry Potter books with his inimitable black and white drawing style, with jewel-toned typography – all to celebrate 20 years since Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone was released in the US.
Sharp-eyed readers will spot intricate details throughout the artwork, such as Hermione’s Time-Turner, Harry’s Patronus, the maze from the Triwizard Tournament, and the Hogwarts Express steaming toward a new school year with the next generation on board.
Together, the seven covers form one glorious single image too – telling Harry’s story from his arrival at Privet Drive to the Battle of Hogwarts.
‘I’m a huge Harry Potter fan (a proud Hufflepuff!) and to be asked to illustrate the 20th anniversary edition covers was an absolute honour’, Brian said.
This is just the first of the US celebrations to commemorate 20 years since the first Harry Potter book: Harry Potter and the Cursed Child opens on Broadway on 22 April, while the British Library’s exhibition, Harry Potter: A History of Magic, transfers to the New-York Historical Society on 5 October. Oh, and a little film you might have heard of, Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald, will be out 16 November in cinemas worldwide.
Selznick's new interpretations of the Harry Potter books will be published in paperback in the US on 26 June. For more information, go to the Scholastic website.
