Wiggins to break GB Tour record
Published July 14, 2012 | By johnny
Race leader Bradley Wiggins will become the first Briton to wear the Tour de France's yellow jersey for a seventh time on Sunday after maintaining his advantage at the end of stage 13.
Wiggins will break Chris Boardman's record after finishing in the peloton in Le Cap d'Agde on Bastille Day.
The Team Sky rider, who
took the jersey on stage seven,
leads team-mate Chris Froome by two minutes and five seconds.
German Andre Greipel outsprinted Peter Sagan to win a third stage this year.
"The team did a great job for me," Greipel said. "You can be really happy with one victory in the Tour de France, but this is a bit special because of Mont Saint-Clair being there near the finish."
Wiggins led his Team Sky colleague Edvald Boasson Hagen into the finishing straight of the 217km route from Saint-Paul-Trois-Chateaux.
As Wiggins tailed away, Boasson Hagen pulled ahead before Greipel and Sagan sprinted ahead to the line.
Greipel's win followed his victories on stages four and five and draws him level with Sagan, who has also crossed the line first in three stages this year.
However Slovakian Sagan leads Greipel in the green points jersey classification, which
Britain's Mark Cavendish won last year.
Sagan picked up 35 points for finishing second to take his overall tally to 296 points, 64 clear of Greipel who amassed 45 for winning the stage.
Team Sky had their easiest day in more than a week. The teams of Lotto and Orica GreenEdge set the pace on the peloton and Team Sky only really needed to be vigilant in the final 25km. I thought Cavendish may have done a little better up that climb, particularly as Greipel stayed in contention, although it's nowhere near as tough as Box Hill will be in the Olympic road race.
Danish rider Michael Morkov went on the attack in the opening kilometres of the stage after telling reporters that he was aiming to win the stage in memory of his father who passed away five years ago to the day.
He helped a group of eight riders, which unsurprisingly included five Frenchmen on Bastille Day, build up an advantage of more than nine minutes but, with the peloton closing that down, he sped off on his own with 65km remaining, battling crosswinds that split the bunch behind him.
However, he was caught 25km from the finish on the solitary climb of the day, the deceptively tough 1.6km ride up Mont Saint-Clair, as Cadel Evans and Jurgen van den Broeck attacked Wiggins.
The Brit was well supported by Mick Rogers and Froome though and the trio kept a consistent pace, catching Evans and Van den Broeck as they reached the summit.
"Bradley never looked to be in any danger, the important thing today was to be at the front," said Team Sky principal Dave Brailsford.
"This stage is another box ticked. It was a really niggly and hard day but we have come through unscathed."
Fellow Team Sky rider Cavendish, who has won one stage on this year's Tour, did not fare so well on the climb, losing more than one minute to the leaders, ending his hopes of contesting the sprint to the finish.
Sunday's stage will see the riders head into the Pyrenees for a
191km race from Limoux to Foix.
Wiggins is aiming to become the first Briton to win the famous race, which finishes in Paris on 22 July.

"Extra's" Mario Lopez put our staff to the "Extra Lean" challenge. Check out who lost 20 pounds in seven weeks!
I had a great experience on the EXTRA Lean Challenge. The eating plan was not that far off from how I normally ate - but I actually learned to eat MORE!! Having snacks throughout the day had been great in curbing my cravings for unhealthy snacks. One of the aspects that I liked best about the plans was that NO food groups were eliminated from the plan! I could enjoy everything that I like but focused more on portion control! Some of my favorite recipes from the book are the guacamole and chicken salad, cous cous with chicken, quinoa salad just to name a few. I also loved all of the suggested snacks throughout the day-cottage cheese and walnuts, rice cake with peanut butter, energy mix and frozen grape (my all-time favorite snack). Although I did not lose any pounds on the scale I have seen some really significant changes. I stepped up my workout plan while doing the "Extra Lean" Challenge and had some really great results. In the past few weeks I lost a total of 13.25 overall inches, lost 5.4% body fat (body fat lost in pounds 8.59). I would recommend the "Extra Lean" book for everyone-if I can do this anyone can!
On the "Extra Lean" plan I lost 20 pounds and hoping to lose more. I'm still not to my goal weight. My favorite recipe was definitely the mac and cheese. YUM! I learned a bunch of stuff on "Extra Lean." Here are a few things: Eat every 3 hours, you need to constantly put fuel on the fire to keep you body running. I learned about calories and how many calories are in each food item. I know this sounds stupid, but I never really understood the correlation between calories and weight gain before. I learned about portion sizes the pictures from the book were great, a spatula head is 3 or 4 oz of protein. I learned that every meal should consist of healthy fats, carbs, and protein; which again I didn't realize. I learned some great "quick" exercises like planks and squats against the wall... I've already noticed a tremendous difference in my arms and legs just from doing a set of 5 for as many seconds I can do it, and every day try to increase even by 1 second. This was definitely an amazing experience and have been recommending the book to everyone I know.
I lost 8 lbs so far from 145lbs to 137lbs. I have many favorite recipes, but the best ones are probably the quinoa salad and the mushroom zucchini pizza because they're easy and fast to make. The mac and cheese recipe is great as well. I feel like I have learned a lot from "Extra Lean." I learned that it's not about depriving yourself of any food but more about eating smaller portions of it. It's about eating fresh and non-processed food so that not only am I feeling better physically, but also have a healthier mental state of mind because I know what I am putting into my body is good for me and will give me energy.
Lost 13 pounds and two pant sizes! Favorite recipe: Guacamole Salad with Chicken I have learned more about portion control and that snacking the proper foods helps to curve cravings.I don't have to fill up my plate to be satisfied. Overall, it has been a great learning experience and I hope to carry on these habits I have learned from "Extra Lean" into the future.
I lost 12 lbs. My favorite recipe was the turkey and black bean burrito. I learned that eating small portions and eating often is filling. Making time for cooking is not only better for you than processed food, but it's fun!
I am happy to say I lost 7 pounds. It would have been more, but I still haven't found the time for the exercise part. My fav recipe's (not just one) are Baked Chicken Cutlets, Quinoa salad, Zucchini and Mushroom pizza's to name a few. I had so much fun sharing lunches with my Red Team! I even enjoyed Jimmy Pena's 15 min workout. It hurt so good if you can believe that. I say I worked out for an hour in that 15 mins. My family and I are still trying to live "Extra Lean." It's a really fresh, clean way to eat and I feel better when I eat that way now. Thanks Mario, Jimmy, Red Team and "Extra Lean"!
Unfortunately, I only lost 5 lbs. My favorite recipe was the mac and cheese. I learned you can do it if you stick to it, but you've gotta stick to it.
I lost 5 lbs. Love the veggie chili and the mushroom and squash pizza. I learned it's all about portion control. Not to give up on taste just cut down on portion. It's a food plan that can last a lifetime.

Delta Passenger assaults air marshal
Delta Passenger 'assaults air marshal, throws coffee on fellow fliers and overturns a drink cart' on Delta flight from London to Salt Lake City.
A 45-year-old American citizen currently living in London who was a passenger on a Delta flight from the UK to Salt Lake City, Utah was arrested Thursday after a bizarre outburst grabbed the attention of everyone on board.
Sarah Maria Beach, KSL reported, spontaneously tipped over a drink cart, threw coffee on people and sprinted up and down the aisle while the plane flew 30,000 feet over the Atlantic Ocean.
She allegedly "jumped on the back of" an air marshal who was trying to put a stop to the "disruption" and "placed her hands on his head, neck, and jawline."
Passengers were deeply concerned that Beach might try and open a door, given the erratic behavior.
One passenger, Martin Nicholls, told KSL that he had a conversation with Beach, that she said "she's got a lot going on in her life" and that she became noticeably more agitated and shouted as the conversation went on.
"[S]he literally sprinted down the end. And I mean she's only a small woman, really," Nicholls said.
He said Beach was drinking coffee "and she literally just threw the whole thing — not the cup, the coffee — and it hit the ceiling, it was going down the walls."
"It went over probably about six or seven passengers, some, almost, to the other side of the plane," he said. It's not clear if the coffee was piping hot at the time.
An air marshal got involved and contained the situation, even bringing Beach to a bathroom on two occasions without incident.
After a third bathroom trip, Beach allegedly assaulted the air marshal in the manner described above.
Beach was cuffed for the rest of the flight. It's not clear what caused the outburst and alleged misdemeanor assault, for which she was charged Friday, but Beach was ordered to undergo a mental health evaluation.
The woman would face a maximum of a year in federal prison if convicted of a crime.

Georgetown's student newspaper voted not to oppose a university effort to trademark their name Tuesday – hindering the paper's long-term campaign to become an independent entity.
The Hoya, Georgetown's largest student newspaper, is funded and sponsored by the university but has tried to become an independent corporation for many years. Georgetown applied to trademark The Hoya's masthead logo this fall, which would prevent the paper from leaving the school owning "The Hoya" name.
The Hoya's board of directors voted 4 to 3 not to file an opposition with the U.S. Patent Office to legally contest the trademark of "The Hoya" masthead, editor in chief Jonathan Swan said. Wednesday was the final deadline for legally opposing the trademark.
The board did not contest the trademark because they feared the university would retaliate by altering previously negotiated terms of their proposed independence, Swan said. These terms were not yet accepted because the paper insisted on keeping the name.
Swan, who voted to contest the trademark, said they will try to keep pressuring the university to negotiate leasing the name from the paper. If one cannot be negotiated, he said, the paper will most likely leave without the name.

They have not been any better on the road, similarly losing their last five away from home. This has culminated into an 8 game losing streak, and their ten straight Big Ten losses to start the conference season is their worst start since Pat Chambers' second season in 2012-2013.
Projected Starters
Jamari Wheeler - 6'1" - Soph. 1 Anthony Gaines - 6'4" - Soph.
Myles Dread - 6'4" - Fr. 2 Ryan Taylor - 6'6" - Sr.
Josh Reaves - 6'4" - Sr. 3 A.J. Turner - 6'7" - Jr.
Lamar Stevens - 6'8" - Jr. 4 Vic Law - 6'7" - Sr.
Mike Watkins - 6'9" - RS Jr. 5 Dererk Pardon - 6'8" - Sr.
Opposite of Penn State, Chris Collins and his Wildcats team are returning to home after two straight on the road. Northwestern lost both of those games in convincing fashion to two good ball clubs in Wisconsin and Maryland. The newly renovated Welsh-Ryan Arena hasn't exactly been a fortress in 2019 - the Wildcats are 9-3 in their first season back after playing all of their home games at DePaul's old arena last year.
Senior Vic Law is Northwestern's best overall player. The versatile forward is known for his slashing and ability to stretch the floor, although he's shooting a career-low 33% from deep this year. Law averages 15.2 points and 6.6 rebounds per game, and is one of two Wildcats to average over a block per game. The second four-year Wildcat in the starting five is Dererk Pardon, who leads the team in rebounding with 7.8 boards per game. He is also the second leading scorer at 13.9 ppg. A pair of transfers, Ryan Taylor and A.J. Reeves, also see over 30 minutes per game.
Despite not having a true point guard on the roster to replace Wildcat legend Bryant McIntosh, Northwestern is still one of the better passing teams in the country. Collins' bunch tallies an assist on 62.7% of their possessions, good for the eighth-highest ratio in the country. That's a testament to their offense's great ball movement, but Jamari Wheeler and Josh Reaves should get plenty of opportunities to play passing lanes and create transition opportunities for the visitors.
Northwestern will be feeling good back at home, and playing against a much less difficult opponent than the two they have just played against on the road. It's hard to see Penn State getting over the hump away from the BJC, and I can't pick them to win until proven otherwise. Northwestern 66 Penn State 58.

There are many factors that drive the value of a home – location, size, and condition being the obvious and primary drivers. As a homeowner deciding on your listing price, there may be other factors that are important to you, but these variables often have no correlation, or even worse, a negative correlation to price. Here are five factors you'll need to put aside to come up with a realistic listing price.
Whether you purchased your home a year ago or two decades ago, the price you paid has no bearing on current market value. Real estate markets in most places move relatively slowly most of the time, but they do move. Prices are a function of the marketplace, not the amount you paid for the property.
In a perfect world, the price your home sells for will, at the very least, cover the balance you owe on your mortgage. However, depending on the market, that's not necessarily achievable. Unfortunately, we've seen many examples of that in the last few years – before 2008, had you heard of a "short sale"?
While many improvements do increase the value of a home, they do not necessarily increase the value on a dollar-for-dollar basis. A $40,000 kitchen upgrade may only raise the home value $30,000, and with depreciation, possibly less. If your intent is to consider improvements when setting a listing price, with the goal of recouping the cost of those improvements, you may be ignoring the dynamics of the market.
Perhaps you need to clear a certain amount as down payment for your next home. Or perhaps you're not even an active seller, but merely want to "test the waters" in the hopes of hitting the lottery. While cases of the latter may occur, they are not the norm. In general, the further away a listing price is from approximate market value, the more turned off prospects will be.
They say one man's trash is another man's treasure. The reciprocal is also true. A green-thumbed seller's colorful garden is another person's landscaping bill. A sun worshipper's swimming pool is a possible hazard to the couple with three young kids. You may find a buyer who prizes your custom features as much as you do, but it's not likely.
Keep these considerations in mind when arriving at a listing price. Think like a buyer would: he doesn't care how much you paid, how much money you'd like to clear, or the subjective value you put on customizations and improvements. If you set a realistic price, you'll avoid sabotaging a sale before your home even goes on the market.

Media File Articles
MEDIA LOCKOUT: PRISONS AND JOURNALISTS, by Helene Vosters
The prison industrial complex–one of America's costliest public institutions, fueled by billions in tax dollars and millions of devastated lives–operates largely without public scrutiny. While mainstream news outlets flood us with sensational crime reporting, they pay comparatively little attention to the brutal conditions within U.S. prisons.
And in California, Democratic Gov. Gray Davis appears determined to keep it that way. Following in the footsteps of his Republican predecessor, on September 7 Davis vetoed a bill that would have lifted a California Department of Correction's ban on face-to-face interviews with prison inmates,instituted in 1994 after a series of high-profile prisoner abuse cases. While media access advocates and prisoner rights activists are unanimous in their denunciation of Davis's action, they also criticize the corporate media for merely paying editorial lip service to First Amendment rights and failing to mount meaningful opposition to the ban.
According to a 1998 Society of Professional Journalists report, California–home to more than 160,000 inmates–has one of the most restrictive media access policies in the United States. The report found that nationally, policies vary greatly, with North Carolina, Texas, and Utah offering the broadest access and California standing out as a restrictions pioneer.
The media lockout, says Christian Parenti, journalist and author of Lockdown America: Police and Prisons in the Age of Crisis, serves a dual function. "Politicians want to appear ruthlessly tough on crime–it's instrumental to their political careers–and they want to keep a lid on what is going on in prisons as a result of their tough-on-crime policies."
AB 1440, introduced by Assemblywoman Carole Migden (D-San Francisco), would have restored media access to its pre-ban status by reinstating face-to-face interviews, restoring prisoners' right to confidential correspondence with media representatives, and allowing journalists to use cameras, recording devices, and writing instruments while conducting interviews. AB 1440's precursor, SB 434, was vetoed in 1997 by then-governor Pete Wilson.
Davis defended his veto by claiming that AB 1440 would "give journalists preferential treatment" and allot them "greater access than even members [of prisoners'] own families."
But journalists argue that the ban interferes with the public's right to know. The CDC now requires reporters to make contact with an inmate, be placed on a visiting list, get cleared by the CDC, then set up a visit–a process that San Francisco Bay Guardian reporter Adam Clay Thompson says takes six to eight weeks.
"That's a pretty major roadblock to doing journalism about prison conditions," says Thompson. "Then, when you have your visit, it's in a room with guards watching and people all around. It's not conducive to people being particularly forthcoming."
Such restrictions make it impossible for the American public to be meaningfully involved in prison-related policy decisions, says journalist and media access advocate Peter Sussman.
"How can we decide policy or determine penalties when we're not allowed to talk to the people most affected?" asks Sussman, past president of the Northern California SPJ chapter and co-author, with prisoner-journalist Dannie Martin, of Committing Journalism: The Prison Writings of Red Hog. "Three strikes is an issue of ongoing public concern–journalists should be interviewing three-strikers."
Gov. Davis seems intent not only on keeping journalists away from prisons, but also on keeping criminal justice policies free from public scrutiny. On October 10, Davis vetoed SB 873, a bill introduced by Sen. John Vasconcellos (D-Santa Clara) that called for a study of the effectiveness of California's three-strikes legislation.
Life in the SHU
Some of the prison system's most compelling and undercovered stories take place in Security Housing Units–"the SHU." Despite CDC roadblocks, reports of gross brutality and homicidal abuse occasionally make their way into the mainstream news media. Thanks to the determination of prisoner rights lawyers and activists, former inmates, journalists, and whistle-blowing corrections officers, eight guards have been indicted for staging "gladiator-style" fights between inmates in Corcoran State Prison's SHU, and four more are currently on trial for setting up the 1993 prison-cell rape of Eddie Dillard.
Mary Rubach of California Prison Focus, while pleased that the Corcoran story hit the mainstream press, is quick to point out that the CDC's human rights violations are not isolated incidents. They are systemic, policy driven, and ongoing, she says. "General prison conditions in California's SHUs aren't getting the media coverage they deserve," Rubach says.
A prison within a prison, the SHU is ostensibly designed to protect the general prison population from the "worst of the worst." While prisoners are put into Administrative Segregation–"the hole"–for allegedly violating prison regulations, to get into the SHU inmates need only be associated with a gang. Once in the SHU, the only way out is through parole, debriefing (implicating other gang members), or death.
"In the SHU there is no redress, no hearing, no defense," says Rubach.
Prisoner rights activists point to the CDC's integrated yard practice as an example of prison officials using policy to administer racist and brutal violence against prison populations. In the SHU–where exercise yards are no larger than a handball court–a yard that pushes prisoners of different gang affiliations together doesn't reduce conflict, it exacerbates it.
Since Corcoran State prison opened in 1988, guards have killed seven inmates and injured hundreds more through the use of excessive force in breaking up staged fights. California is the only state that allows the use of deadly force to break up fights.
In the Security Housing Unit there is no redress, no hearing, no defense.
While the exposure of some Corcoran State Prison atrocities is an important victory for prisoner rights advocates, it is not necessarily the result of great journalism. Most of the reporting on Corcoran came after the fact. This is significant because many of the incidents central to civil rights suits based on prisoner abuse at Corcoran happened prior to the CDC's implementation of the ban on face-to-face inmate interviews. Were it not for the dedicated work of prison rights lawyers, it is unlikely that the institutional violence at Corcoran would ever have reached the public.
Pell v. Procunier
Prison rebellions, legal challenges, and media exposure throughout the '70s brought conditions within U.S. correctional institutions to the attention of the American public and resulted in much-needed prison reform. But while gains were made, there were also setbacks. In a 1974 case–Pell v. Procunier–the Supreme Court ruled that media access to prisons was not a constitutional guarantee under the First Amendment. The court ruled that the public's right to information must be balanced with law enforcement's "security interests."
Such rulings, along with the court's broad interpretation of "security interests," laid the foundation for increased media access restrictions across the United States.
Because of Pell and other precedent-setting cases, litigation is not necessarily the best strategy in the fight for media access, says Alan Schlosser, managing attorney for the American Civil Liberties Union of Northern California. "The law in this area is very difficult. Cases must be chosen carefully."
The ACLU has strongly opposed the CDC ban and was an active supporter of AB 1440. "This bill was positive and necessary. We have a growing prison system with numerous documented cases of prisoner abuse," says Schlosser.
But neither the ACLU nor the mainstream media has fought hard enough for access, and the opposition it has put up has been misguided, according to Noelle Hanrahan, director of the Prison Radio Project.
After journalists were locked out of portions of the 1996 execution of William Bonin–California's first lethal injection and third execution since the 1992 reinstatement of capital punishment–the ACLU, on behalf of the Northern California chapter of the SPJ and the California First Amendment Coalition, sued for total access to the CDC's executions.
"It's disgusting," says Hanrahan. "They sued for the right to see the needle go into Bonin's arm, but not for the right to talk to him."
In any case, there are many prison issues other than Corcoran-style abuse and sensational details of state executions that should be brought to the public's attention, Hanrahan says. "Our nation's prisons have become genocidal environments because of the gross mismanagement of public health issues," she says. "Sex happens in prisons, drug use happens in prisons–yet there are virtually no safe-sex or HIV education programs."
No Camera, No Story
Conspicuously absent from the access debate is the media's most powerful member and the one most severely impacted by the ban–television.
If diligent, print journalists, while denied face-to-face interviews with specific inmates, are able to gain access through phone calls and visiting hours. The CDC's prohibition on broadcast equipment, however, bars television journalists all together–no camera, no story. Yet while the California Broadcasters Association backed AB 1440, the industry as a whole has applied barely a fraction of its considerable corporate muscle to the issue of access.
Ever loyal to the "if it bleeds, it leads" motto, television coverage of our criminal justice system remains focused on the sensational. According to a Rocky Mountain Media Watch report, local news programs allot 30 percent of their air time to bloody crime reports and none to coverage of the prisoner rights movement.
Hassling Journalists
Those journalists who do attempt to do investigative work on prison issues often receive little support from their superiors. "Aggressive investigative reporting that attacks people in power is not rewarded by editors of major news institutions," notes Hanrahan.
They may also be targeted by state officials. Sussman, who co-wrote SB 434 and testified before the Assembly on behalf of AB 1440, was attacked by state attorneys earlier this year. The California attorney general's office deposed Sussman in connection with a former inmate's civil suit against the CDC and subpoenaed his confidential notes and records–including a contract with Harper's magazine for an upcoming article about prisons. Sussman believes the attorney general's intent was, at least in part, to harass and intimidate him.
"I was asked questions that had no relevance to the case–blatantly political questions like, 'Is it a fair characterization to say that you helped guide the Kopp legislation [SB 434] through the house?'" says Sussman.
The print media rallied to Sussman's defense, with most major papers in Northern California running editorials or stories. Sussman refused to forfeit any documents, and–after two depositions and 14 hours of testimony–state attorneys eventually backed down.
Media access restrictions, however, are designed not only to keep the media and the public in the dark about prisons, but also to silence and punish inmates who dare to talk to the press. And unfortunately, those behind bars don't have Sussman's connections (he's a former editor of the San Francisco Chronicle).
"Prison Blues"
Shearwood Fleming and Charles Ervin each spent 44 days in the hole for "impugning the credibility" of CMT Blues, a San Diego prison industry program. The two allegedly told the news media that they were forced to replace "Made in Honduras" labels on privately manufactured T-shirts with "Made in the USA" labels as part of their duties at the prison's garment sewing operation.
Laura Castaneda, the KGTV (Channel 10, San Diego) reporter who broke the label-switching story, said her "source" was a non-inmate whose identity she would not reveal. Formal charges were never filed against either inmate and both were eventually released from solitary confinement and transferred to separate prisons. The CDC's ban makes interviews with either prisoner difficult to obtain.
This is not to say the prison officials are completely opposed to media coverage. On the contrary, they are as cognizant of the media's potential as a public relations vehicle as they are of its power to expose abuse. Mark Carnopis, information officer for Idaho's correctional facilities, responded to an SPJ survey question about the criteria for granting access by writing, "We look for compelling reasons why the interview should take place. How will the interview benefit the department?"
Prison officials and tough-on-crime politicians have become increasingly adept at using the media to garner public support for increased prison spending.
Steve Rigg, a whistle-blowing former guard pivotal in the exposure of the Corcoran atrocities, believes that much of Corcoran's violence was deliberately engineered to convince the public of the CDC's need for more money.
There are journalists who don't need to circumvent media access bans–they're already inside. Dan Pens and Paul Wright, two Washington state convicts, edit and publish Prison Legal News. In circulation since 1990, PLN covers prison-related news and legal decisions.
PLN's insider perspective and hard-hitting journalism make it an invaluable resource for criminal defense lawyers, prisoner rights activists, and outside journalists. Pens and Wright, together with Daniel Burton-Rose, have compiled a selection of PLN articles in the book The Celling of America: An Inside Look at the U.S. Prison Industry.
PLN journalists do more than chronicle the increasingly cruel and vindictive nature of America's criminal justice system–they make connections between what goes on behind cell doors and what goes on beyond them, broadening the usually narrow crime debate.
"Celebrity Convicts"
Davis justified his veto of AB 1440 by saying the bill was "inconsistent with the national trend to reduce, not expand, rights of prisoners," and that its passage would provide "celebrity to convicts."
But prisoner rights activists don't think it's celebrity criminals that prison authorities and politicians are worried about. Rather, it's inmates who might expose the deplorable conditions inside U.S. prisons–people like Pens, Wright, and 17-year death row veteran Mumia Abu-Jamal.
Hours before the first of a series of commentaries by Abu-Jamal–radio journalist and former Black Panther–was to be broadcast in 1994, National Public Radio caved in to pressure from the Fraternal Order of Police and then-Sen. Bob Dole and canceled the program. Ten of Abu-Jamal's taped essays remain locked in NPR vaults.
Hanrahan, producer of Abu-Jamal's radio commentaries, says that while Pennsylvania's Department of Corrections had one of the country's more open media access policies in the early '90s, prison authorities were still successful at shutting down access to Abu-Jamal on numerous occasions.
According to the SPJ's Access to Prisons Report, Hanrahan's experience is not unique to Pennsylvania. In correctional institutions across the country there are major discrepancies between policy and practice. Of the 39 states that allowed inmate interviews in 1996, most had broad "security concern" clauses that made access subject to the discretion of prison officials. The SPJ report found that while Idaho's written policy, for example, allows face-to-face interviews, corrections director James Spalding had not granted a prisoner interview since his 1993 appointment.
In Abu-Jamal's case, the courts ruled the Pennsylvania Department of Corrections' denial of access unconstitutional on the grounds that Abu-Jamal was being unfairly targeted. Pennsylvania lawmakers responded in 1996 by passing the "Mumia Law"–a California-style blanket ban on face-to-face prisoner interviews.
The Prison Radio Project recorded a new set of commentaries by Abu-Jamal just days before the Pennsylvania ban went into effect. The recordings have aired nationally on Pacifica Radio and been compiled on a CD titled All Things Censored.
Abu-Jamal, who twice a month uses his ten-minute weekly phone access to call Pacifica's Democracy Now program, has also published two compilations of essays, Live From Death Row and Death Blossoms.
In addition to humanizing death row inmates, Abu-Jamal's commentaries–like the journalism of Pens and Wright–offer a powerful political critique of the prison industrial complex and the racist, classist system that spawned it. Such critiques deserve to be heard, and the mainstream media should not only seek access more vigorously–it should also grant space and air time to prisoner journalists.

Below mentioned stored procedures will help you to solve SQL injection issues.
-- Copyright © 2002 Narayana Vyas Kondreddi. All rights reserved.
-- Site: SQL Server information @ Narayana Vyas Kondreddi's website: A good resource for all your SQL Server needs!
The use of stored procedures is to combat injection of ad-hoc SQL statements. And the additional suggestion of using 'execute only' permissions on procedures is because I want to make sure that the stored procedures that I have cannot be replaced or altered by the SQL Injection attack. I do not want an attacker using SQL Injection to read my existing code, but this is a secondary consideration. The attacks I see could usually care less what logic you have, but really want to introduce their own functionality, either by introducing an ad-hoc query or by introducing a stored procedure. Use of stored procedures mitigates the first issue, and 'execute only' stops the alteration of the code. I am adding that you want to periodically check that the database user does not have create procedures permissions in their role in addition to the existing stored procedures being execute only. This combats the 'Injection' of new stored procedures to launch additional attacks.
But database administration and database platform security is oft left out of the conversation, and it should not be, as there are other simple tips that have similar benefits to helping reduce the possibility of SQL Injection. I have made some comments to several of the OWASP & WASC members here in San Jose, and that given the symbiotic relationship between database platforms and web application, may want to include some additional database platform security discussions with the application security discussions that they have today.
My final suggestion on the topic of stored procedures has to do with external stored procedures. Most relational databases have the option of using external links and stored procedures to reference OS level code. This is in essence a program outside the database that can either run OS level functions, and often can use database functionality as well. I do not want to go into a long discussion here about the types of attacks that can be conducted through external code, or the dozens of issues pertaining to permissions, but simply comment that in using stored procedures for web applications, resist the urge to use external stored procedures or links. They can be very dangerous, and I typically advocate checking that the user rights do not include use of these external resources.

2:25 hali ular unga taqlid, uning tomonidan kim bor.
3:1 Lekin faqat ruhlari Xudoning qo'lida va o'lim yo'q azob yetar.
3:3 va ularning bizdan ketadi, a haydash. Biroq ular tinchlik bor.
3:4 Va-da,, odamlarning ko'zi oldida, ular azobda azob, ularning umidi yashashga to'la.
3:5 Bir necha narsalarga bezovta, ko'p narsalar ular yaxshi qoplanadi bo'ladi, Alloh ularni imtihon qilgan, chunki va o'zi ularni munosib topildi.
3:7 ular porlaydilar, va ular Xazon orasida uchqun kabi haqida chiziq bo'ladi.
3:8 Ular xalqlarni hukm qiladi va ular odamlar ustidan hukmronlik qiladi, va Robbilari abadiy hukmronlik qiladi.
3:9 Unga tavakkal qilganlar, haqiqatni tushunish, sevgi va sodiq bo'lganlarga unga orom beradi, inoyat va tinchlik uning tanlanganlar uchun, chunki.
3:13 Shu sababli, fertile is the barren and undefiled, who has not known transgressions in bed; she will bear fruit by caring for holy souls.
4:4 And if they spring forth with branches for a time, yet, being set infirmly, they will be shaken by the wind, va, by the superabundance of the winds, they will be eradicated.
4:19 Va keyin, they will fall without honor and with contempt among the dead forever. Seeing that they are puffed up and speechless, he will shatter them and will shake them from the foundations all the way to the top, to their utter desolation, and they will grieve and their remembrance will perish.
5:2 Seeing this, they will be troubled with terrible fear, and they will be amazed at the suddenness of unexpected salvation.
5:6 Shu sababli, we have strayed from the way of truth, and the light of justice has not shined on us, and the sun of understanding has not risen on us.
5:12 yoki, like an arrow shot at a selected mark, the air continues to be divided and to be brought together again, so that its passing is unknown.
5:17 Shu sababli, they will receive a beautiful kingdom and a crown of splendor from the hand of the Lord, for with his right hand he will cover them, and with his holy arm he will defend them.
5:22 Shafts of lightning will hurl forth accurately, va, as if from a well-curved bow of clouds, they will be expelled and will fly to the determined mark.
6:1 Hikmat kuch ko'ra yaxshiroqdir, va bir aqlli odam kuchli kimsadan yaxshi bo'ladi.
6:2 Shu sababli, eshitmoq, O shohlar, va tushunish; o'rganish, erning negativ siz sudyalari.
6:3 Diqqat bilan tinglang, Agar olomon e'tiborini ushlab turing kim, va kim xalqlarni bezovta tomonidan o'zingizni mamnun.
6:4 Hokimiyat uchun Taoloning boshlab Rabbimiz va kuch sizga berilgan, Sening ishlaringni ko'rib va fikrlaringiz tadqiq kim.
6:5 Uchun, Agar uning shohlik vazirlari edi, to'g'ri hukm qilmadi, na adolat qonun tutish, na Xudoning irodasiga ko'ra yurish.
6:6 Dahshatli va tez u sizga paydo bo'ladi, u mas'ul bo'lganlar uchun shiddatli hukm qiladi, chunki.
6:7 Uchun, oz uchun, katta rahmat beriladi, lekin kuchli kuchli azob bardosh beradi.
6:8 Egamiz kimning belgi ozod qilmaydi, na u hech kimning buyukligi hayrat ichida turadi, o'zi oz va katta qildi, chunki, va u har bir kishi uchun bir xil tashvishda.
6:9 Lekin kuchli azob kuchli ko'zlaydi.
6:10 Shu sababli, O shohlar, bu, Mening so'zlarim, Siz uchun, Agar donolik o'rganish va mumkin emas, shunday qilib, halok.
6:11 Adolat adolat oqladi qilinadi saqlanib qilganlar uchun, va bu ishlarni o'rgandim kishilar javob nima topasiz.
6:12 Shu sababli, desire my words, love them, and you will have instruction.
6:16 Shu sababli, by thinking about her, understanding is perfected, and whoever remains watchful for her, will quickly be secure.
6:21 Shunday qilib, the desire for wisdom leads to an everlasting kingdom.
6:27 Shu sababli, receive instruction by my words, and it will benefit you.
7:6 Shu sababli, there is only one entrance for everyone into life, and the same in leaving.
7:8 va men shohliklar va So'rilar oldin uni joylashtirildi, va men u bilan solishtirganda boylik hech narsa ko'rib.
7:9 Men ham bir qimmatbaho tosh unga nisbatan edi, u bilan solishtirganda, barcha oltin, bir oz qum kabi bo'ladi, va kumush, uning ko'rinishida, yer xuddi qimmatbaho bo'ladi.
7:10 Men salomatlik va go'zallik yuqorida uni sevib, va men nur oldin uni ham sog'lomlashtirilyapti, uning engil sodiq uchun.
7:14 Haqiqatdan ham, she is an infinite treasure chest for men, and those who make use of it, become partakers in the friendship of God, because they are recommended by the gifts of instruction.
7:23 odamiy, rahmdil, qattiq, ishonchli, xavfsiz, Barcha fazilatini ega, hamma narsalarni tomosha va ruh bir sof va eng nozik aql bilan hamma narsani ochko'z.
7:24 Donolik hamma faol narsalar ko'proq faol, hali u, chunki uni poklik hamma joyda etib.
7:25 U Xudoning tufayli bir nafas va qudratli Allohning pokiza haqiqiy nur, va shuning uchun nopok hech narsa uni istilo mumkin.
7:26 Haqiqatdan ham, u abadiy nur yorqinligi emas, Xudoning qudrati haqidagi beg'ubor oyna, va uning yaxshilik image.
7:27 Va u bir bo'lsa-da,, u hamma narsani qila olaman; va, o'ziga o'zgarmagan, u hamma narsani yangilaydi, va xalqlar davomida u muqaddas ruhlar uchun o'zini yetkazdi, do'stlar va Xudoning payg'ambarlari ularni tashkil etish.
7:28 Xudo donolik bilan yashovchilarni lekin hech sevadi uchun.
7:29 U quyosh ko'proq ajoyib uchun, va barcha yulduzlar qator yuqorida; nur bilan solishtirganda, u oldin bo'lishi topilgan.
7:30 Haqiqatdan ham, Uni kecha keladi keyin, lekin donolik adovat bilan yengib bo'lmaydi.
8:1 Shunday qilib,, u bir chetidan barcha yo'l-biriga aytib etib, va u shirin hamma narsani amr.
8:6 But if the mind is to be served, kim, of all that exists, is a greater artisan than she?
8:9 Shu sababli, I resolved to take her to me to live together, knowing that she will be a good counselor and will console my thoughts and my weariness.
8:13 Shunday qilib,, by means of her, I will have immortality, and I will bequeath an everlasting memorial to those who come after me.
9:5 Men sizning qulingiz emasman, chunki, and the son of your handmaid, a weak man, and short-lived, with limited understanding of judgment and laws.
9:8 And you called me to construct a temple on your holy mount, va, in the city of your dwelling, an altar in the likeness of your holy tabernacle, which you have prepared from the beginning.
9:13 Uchun erkaklar o'rtasida kim Xudoning maslahatini bilish mumkin? Yoki kim Xudoning irodasini tasavvur mumkin?
9:14 ijobiy fikrlar uchun tortinchoq bo'lgan, va bizning ehtiyotkorlik noma'lum bo'lgan.
9:15 o'tkinchi tanasi jonni pastga og'irligi uchun, va bu dunyoviy joyi yodda ustiga ko'p fikr bosadi.
9:16 Va biz qiyinchilik bilan erning narsalarni baholash, va biz mehnat bilan nuqtai ichida narsalarni kashf. Bas, kim samoviy narsalar qo'ng'iroq qiladi?
9:17 Bundan tashqari, kim fikringizni biladi, Agar hikmat berish va yuksak Muqaddas Ruhingni yuborish bo'lmasa?
9:18 Va bu yo'l bilan, er yuzida qilguvchilar, ularning yo'lida to'g'rilanardi, va erkaklar sizga ma'qul narsalarni o'rganish.
10:3 Shundan so'ng, when the unjust man withdrew from her in his anger, he perished through anger by the murder of his brother.
10:4 Shuni dastidan; shu sababdan, when water destroyed the earth, wisdom healed it again, guiding the just by means of contemptible wood.
10:5 Bundan tashqari, when the nations had conspired together to consent to wickedness, she knew the just, and preserved him without blame before God, and preserved his strength out of mercy for his sons.
10:7 qaysi, as a testimony to their wickedness, is a constantly smoking desolate land, and the trees bear fruit at uncertain times, and a figure of salt stands as a monument to an unbelieving soul.
10:8 Uchun, in disregarding wisdom, they are fallen, not so much in this, that they were ignorant of good, but that they bequeathed to men a memorial of their foolishness, Shuning uchun; ... uchun; ... natijasida, in the things in which they sinned, they were unable to escape notice.
10:19 But their enemies, she submerged in the sea, and from the furthest depths, she drew them up. Shu sababli, the just carried off the spoils of the impious.
11:11 For these, advising like a father, you approved; but the others, interrogating like a severe king, you condemned.
11:21 Hali, even without these, they could have been killed with one breath, suffering persecution of their own making and being scattered by your spirit of virtue; but you have ordered all things in size and number and weight.
11:22 ko'p kuchli bo'lsa-da,, siz yolg'iz har doim engib. Va kim qo'lini kuchini bardosh beradi?
11:23 Uchun, shkala bo'yicha kichkinagina g'alla kabi, faqat shuning uchun sizlardan ilgari dunyo, va tong oldin bir tomchi shudring kabi, qaysi er yuzida tushadir.
11:24 Lekin, siz barcha uchun Rahmdil bo'lganlar, Agar barcha qila olaman, chunki, va siz, chunki tavba odam gunohlarini lavozimidan ozod.
11:25 Siz hamma narsani yaxshi ko'raman uchun, va siz qilgan narsani hech narsa nafratlanaman; Agar yaratgan yoki nafrat hech narsa tashkil qilmas edi uchun.
11:26 narsa bardosh mumkin, qanday qilib, Sizning irodasi bilan bundan mustasno? yoki nima, siz bilan atalgan bo'lgan emas mavjud, saqlanib bo'ladi?
11:27 Biroq siz har bir narsani tirik, ular Senikidir, chunki, Ey Robbimiz, kim jonini sevadi.
12:1 O, qanday yaxshi va ezgu, Lord, hamma narsani o'z ruhi!
12:2 Shu sababli, maydonda yuraveradilar qilganlar, Agar tuzatish, va, o'sha kim gunoh uchun, Sizga maslahat, ularni va ularni nasihat, Shuning uchun; ... uchun; ... natijasida, tark asir bo'lgan, ular senga iymon mumkin, Ey Robbimiz.
12:10 lekin, in judging by degrees, you were giving them a place of repentance, not unaware that their nation is wicked, and their malice is inherent, and that their thinking could never be changed.
12:12 For who will say to you, "Nima qilib qo'yding?" Or who will stand against your judgment? Or who will come before you as a defender of unfair men? Or who will accuse you, if the nations perish, Siz qildik?
12:15 Shu sababli, since you are just, you order all things justly, considering it foreign to your virtue to condemn him who does not deserve to be punished.
12:16 For your power is the beginning of justice, va, because you are Lord of all, you make yourself to be lenient to all.
12:18 Hali, you are the master of power, since you judge with tranquility, and since you administer us with great reverence; for it is close to you to be used whenever you will.
12:21 with what diligence, so'ng, have you judged your sons, whose parents you have given oaths and covenants in good faith!
12:22 Shu sababli, while you give us discipline, you give our enemies a multiplicity of scourges, so that in judging we may think on your goodness, and when we are judged, we may hope for mercy.
12:23 Shu sababli, also to these, who have lived their lived their life irrationally and unjustly, through these things that they worshiped, you gave the greatest torments.
12:24 Va, haqiqatdan ham, they wandered for a long time in the way of error, valuing those things as gods, which are worthless even among animals, living in foolish irrational behavior.
12:25 Shuni dastidan; shu sababdan, you have given a judgment in derision, as if from foolish children.
12:27 For among those who were indignant at their sufferings, which came through those things that they reputed to be gods, when they saw that they would be destroyed by these same things, those who formerly refused knowledge of him, now acknowledged the true God, va, shuni dastidan; shu sababdan, the end of their condemnation came upon them.
13:1 Lekin hamma odamlar bekorga bor, Xudoning bilim ostida kim emas, va kim, ko'rgan, bu yaxshi narsalardan, kim u tushunish mumkin emas edi, na, ishlari e'tibor bilan, ular u usta edi tan olmadi.
13:2 O'rniga, ular ham yong'in ko'rib edi, yoki havo, yoki atmosfera, yoki yulduzli doira, yoki katta dengiz, yoki quyosh va oy, dunyoni hukm xudolar bo'lish.
13:3 Ular bo'lsa, bunday diqqatga sazovor joylari bilan xursand etilmoqda, xudolar ularni kerak, ularga Robbi ko'rinish qanchalik buyuk xabar. Hamma narsani yaratgan zot uchun go'zallik muallifi.
13:4 Yoki, ular kuch va ularning oqibatlari hayron agar, ularga bu narsalar bilan tushunish qilaylik, Ularni yaratgan u ular ancha kuchli ekanini.
13:5 Uchun, yaratish va uning go'zallik buyukligi bilan, bu yaratuvchisi discernibly ko'rinib imkoniyatiga ega bo'ladi.
13:6 Hali, Shu paytga qadar, Bu haqda shikoyat kam emas. Ehtimol, ular bu bir xato qilgan, orzu va Xudoni topish uchun izlab vaqt.
13:7 Va, haqiqatdan ham, Uning asarlari orqali u bilan tanish bo'lgan, ular qidirish, va ular ishonch hosil qilingan, ular ko'rib narsalar yaxshi, chunki.
13:8 Lekin, keyin yana, na ularning qarz e'tiborsiz mumkin.
13:9 Uchun, Ular olamni qadrlaymiz qilib etarli bilish ega bo'lsa, ular osonlik bilan u Robbisiga kashf qilmadi qanday?
13:16 buning uchun taqdim, lest it should fall, knowing that it is unable to help itself, for it is an image and it is in need of help.
13:17 Undan keyin, making an offering, he inquires about his wealth, and about his sons, and about marriage. And he is not ashamed to talk to that which has no soul.
14:1 Yana, another, thinking to sail, and beginning to make his voyage through the raging waves, calls upon a piece of wood more fragile than the wood that carries him.
14:5 Lekin, so that the works of your wisdom might not be empty, shu sababli, men trust their souls even to a little piece of wood, va, crossing over the sea by raft, they are set free.
14:6 Lekin, boshidan, when the proud giants were perishing, the hope of the world, fleeing by boat, gave back to future ages a seed of birth, which was governed by your hand.
14:11 Shuni dastidan; shu sababdan, and according to the idolatries of the nations, there will be no refuge, for the things created by God have been made into hatred, and into a temptation to the souls of men, and into a snare for the feet of the foolish.
14:15 For a father, embittered with the suffering of grief, made an image of his son, who had been suddenly taken away from him, undan keyin, he who had died as a man, now begins to be worshiped as if a god, and so rites and sacrifices are established among his servants.
14:16 So'ng, in the course of time, iniquity gains strength within this erroneous custom, so that this error has been observed as if it were a law, and this figment has been worshiped at the command of tyrants.
14:17 And those, whom men could not openly honor because they were far off, a likeness of them was carried from far off, and from it they made a similar image of the king that they wanted to honor, Shuning uchun; ... uchun; ... natijasida, by their solicitude, they might worship he who was absent, just as if he were present.
14:18 Hali, it passes into their care, and those whom they did not know, they love because of the excellence of the artist.
14:29 Uchun, while they trust in idols, which are without a soul, vowing evil, they hope not to be harmed themselves.
14:30 Shu sababli, from both sides it will fittingly happen, because they have thought evil of God, paying attention to idols, and because they have sworn unjustly, in guile despising justice.
15:1 Agar lekin, Xudo, are gracious and true, kasal, and in mercy ordering all things.
15:2 Va, haqiqatdan ham, if we sin, we are yours, knowing your greatness; va, if we do not sin, we know that we are counted with you.
15:7 But even the potter, pressing laboriously, molds the soft earth into vessels, each one for our use. And from the same clay he molds vessels, those which are for clean use, va xuddi shu tarzda, those which are for the opposite. Lekin, as to what is the use of a vessel, the potter is the judge.
15:8 And with effort he molds an empty god of the same clay, he who a little before had been made from the earth, va, after brief time, he himself returns from whence he came, to be claimed by he who holds the debt of his soul.
15:13 Uchun, above all else, he knows himself to be lacking, kim, from fragile material of the earth forms vessels and graven images.
15:17 Uchun, being mortal, he forms a dead thing with his unjust hands. Hali, he is better than those things that he worships, because he indeed has lived, though he is mortal, but they never have.
15:18 Bundan tashqari, they worship the most miserable animals, uchun, to make a foolish comparison, these others are worse.
16:1 Shuni dastidan; shu sababdan, and by means of things similar to these, they were allowed to endure fitting torments, and they were exterminated by a multitude of beasts.
16:3 Shuning uchun; ... uchun; ... natijasida, even those desiring food, because of those things which were sent and revealed to them, were now turned away from a necessary desire. Yet these, after a brief time, having become weak, tasted a new food.
16:5 Shunday qilib, when fierce beasts overcame them in anger, they were exterminated by the bites of perverse snakes.
16:11 Uchun, in remembrance of your words, they were examined and were quickly saved, for forgetfulness is not engraved into your altar so that they would be unable to obtain your help.
16:12 Va, haqiqatdan ham, neither an herb, nor a poultice, healed them, but your word, Ey Robbimiz, which heals all.
16:13 For it is you, Ey Robbimiz, who holds the power of life and death; you both lead to the threshold of death and you restore.
16:14 Yet man, haqiqatdan ham, kills his own soul through malice, and when his spirit goes forth, it will not be returned, nor will he call back his soul when it has been received.
16:18 Haqiqatdan ham, at a certain time, the fire was subdued, so as not to burn away the animals, which were sent against the impious; va, shunday qilib,, in seeing this, they might know that they are suffering persecution by the judgment of God.
16:19 Va, at another time, fire burned, beyond its own power, in the midst of water, and it flared up from all around, so as to destroy the nations of an unjust land.
16:20 Instead of these things, you nourished your people with the food of angels, va, having prepared bread from heaven, you served them without labor that which holds within itself every delight and the sweetness of every flavor.
16:26 so that your sons, whom you loved, Ey Robbimiz, might know that it is not the fruits of nature which feed men, but your word, which preserves those who believe in you.
17:1 For your judgments, Ey Robbimiz, are great, and your words are indescribable. Shu sababli, undisciplined souls have wandered astray.
17:2 Uchun, while they managed to convince the unjust, so as to obtain dominion over the holy nation, they themselves were fettered with chains of darkness and of endless night, enclosed in their houses, fugitives of everlasting providence, lying in ruins.
17:3 Va, while they thought to escape notice in their secret sins, they were scattered under a dark veil of oblivion, being horribly afraid, and having been disturbed with great astonishment.
17:5 Va, haqiqatdan ham, even fire had no strength to provide them light, nor could the clear flames of the stars illuminate that horrible night.
17:7 va, having been ridiculed, the illusions were removed from their arts along with their contemptuous rebuke of glorious wisdom.
17:8 Haqiqatdan ham, those who promised to drive away fears and disturbances from a languishing soul, though they were filled with derision, were themselves languishing in fear.
17:9 Va, even if nothing unnatural disturbed them, yet being agitated by the passing of animals and the hissing of snakes, they died of fear, denying what they themselves saw even in the air, which no one thinks to be able to escape.
17:10 Uchun, while there may be apprehension with wickedness, it gives testimony to condemnation, for a troubled conscience always forecasts harshness.
17:12 Va, while expectation is driven from within, the cause of this is supposing that one is great in knowledge, and as a result, conflict excels.
17:15 So'ng, if any among them had fallen away, he was kept in a prison without bars which had been left open.
17:20 Ammo keyin, the heavy night was placed over the sun for them, an image of that darkness which was about to overcome them. Yet they were more grievous to themselves than was the darkness.
18:3 Shuni dastidan; shu sababdan, they had a burning column of fire as a guide on the unknown way, and you displayed a harmless sun of a good hospitality.
18:4 The others, haqiqatdan ham, deserved to be deprived of the light and to endure a prison of darkness, who watched for an opportunity to imprison your sons, by whom the incorruptible light of the law was beginning to be given to future generations.
18:6 O'sha kecha ota-bobolarimiz tomonidan oldindan ma'lum edi, Shuning uchun; ... uchun; ... natijasida, Ular ishonchli qilgan qasamingizning haqiqatni bilish, Ular dillarida yana tinch bo'lishi mumkin.
18:7 Hali odamlar nafaqat najot qabul, Lekin zolimlar ham vayron.
18:8 Agar dushmanlarimiz yaralangan kabi uchun, sizlar ham katta bizni oldinga qo'ng'iroq qimmat edi.
18:9 yaxshilik faqat bolalar uchun maxfiy qurbonlik qilindi, va shartnomada ular adolat qonunini boshqariladi, Bas, yaxshi va yomon, har ikki adolat ega bo'ladi, deb, va siz hozir otalariga ilohiy ma'qullamaydi mumkin, shunday qilib,.
18:10 Boshqa tarafdan, a dissimilar voice was resounding from the enemies, and a lamentable wailing was heard for the children who were being cried over.
18:12 Shu sababli, all were the same, with one name for death, and the dead were innumerable. For neither were the living sufficient to bury the dead, chunki, with a single effort, their most illustrious nation was exterminated.
18:16 as a sharp sword carrying your unfeigned authority, and standing, filled all things with death, va, standing on the earth, reached all the way up to touch heaven.
18:17 So'ng, incessant visions of nightmares disturbed them, and unexpected fears overcame them.
18:18 And another was thrown down elsewhere half-alive; va hokazo, by means of that which was dying, the cause of death was revealed.
18:20 Hali, o'sha paytda, the trial of death touched even the just, and there was a disturbance of the multitude in the wilderness, but your wrath did not continue for long.
18:22 Yet he outlasted the disturbance, not by virtue of the body, nor by force of arms, lekin, with a word, he subdued those who were troubling him, commemorating the oaths and covenant of the parents.
18:24 Uchun, within the garment of shame which he held, the world was all together, and the great deeds of the parents were engraved on four orders of stones, and your majesty was engraved on the crown of his head.
19:1 But the impious, all the way to the very end, were overcome by anger without mercy. Haqiqatdan ham, he knew beforehand even their future.
19:2 Hali, seeing that they might have repented, so that they would be led by him and be sent forth with great concern, the just sought the impious, while regretting their deeds.
19:3 Uchun, while the just were still holding grief in their hands and weeping at the tombs of the dead, these others took upon themselves another senseless thought, and they cast out the legislators and pursued them as if they were fugitives.
19:5 and so that your people, haqiqatdan ham, might wonderfully pass through, but these others might find a new death.
19:9 For they consumed food like horses, and they leapt about like lambs, praising you, Ey Robbimiz, who had freed them.
19:10 For they were still mindful of those things which had happened during the time of their sojourn, Qanday, instead cattle, the earth brought forth flies, and instead of fish, the river cast up a multitude of frogs.
19:11 Va, axir, they saw a new kind of bird, qachon, being led by their desire, they demanded a feast of meat.
19:12 Uchun, to console their loss, the quail came up to them from the sea, and yet troubles overcame the sinners, though they were not without the evidence of what had happened before by the power of lightning, for they suffered justly according to their own wickedness.
19:20 Boshqa tarafdan, the flames did not trouble the bodies of the mortal animals walking around, nor did they melt that good food, which is as easily melted as ice. For in all things, Ey Robbimiz, you magnified your people, and honored them, and did not despise them, but at every time and in every place, you assisted them.


Mineral Resources Minister Gwede Mantashe wants to withdraw the Mineral and Petroleum Resources Development Amendment Bill, which has been stuck in the National Council of Provinces for months and months.
The withdrawal will be welcomed by the industry, which has been plagued by uncertainty while it has been the subject of legislative processes dating back to 2013.
Mantashe told parliament's mineral resources portfolio committee on Wednesday that his view, and that of his department, was that the bill should be withdrawn, allowing the mining industry to be governed by the Mineral and Petroleum Resources Development Act (MPRDA) in its present form. There was nothing in the act which inhibits the sector.
The particular needs of the petroleum sector — which are addressed in the amendment bill — could be dealt with in a dedicated, directly targeted legislative framework for the sector. Mantashe said this was better than trying to squeeze the petroleum sector into the MPRDA.
"It is excellent news as much as a very sensible move by Mantashe," said Herbert Smith Freehills partner and mine law expert Peter Leon.
"It is also good news for the oil and gas industry provided this can be done quickly. The select committee's decision to fast-track the bill yesterday would have been susceptible to constitutional challenge."
Of particular concern to the industry about the amendment bill is a proposal requiring mining companies intending to export minerals to apply for written consent from the mineral resources minister, who might apply certain conditions.
Producers of designated minerals would also be required to offer a percentage of the minerals to local beneficiators.
Mantashe said there was "nothing to be proud of" in terms of the progress of the bill in the National Council of Provinces. Several meetings had been held with the select committee dealing with the bill, including one two days ago.
Dealing with the mining charter, Mantashe said he hoped to have finalised it — including its presentation to the cabinet — before the investment summit scheduled for November.
"This will remove a great deal of uncertainty," the minister told MPs.
The bill was sent back to Parliament by former president Jacob Zuma in 2015, partly on the grounds that proper consultation processes were not followed.

The International Union for Conservation of Nature's (IUCN) recently categorised the Red Sanders (or Red Sandalwood) again into the 'endangered' category in its Red List.
Red Sanders
The species, called Red Sanders, is scientifically called as Pterocarpus santalinus.
It is an Indian endemic tree species and its geographical range is restricted to Eastern Ghats.
The species is endemic to a distinct tract of forests in Andhra Pradesh.
It was classified as 'near threatened' in 2018. It was a moment of celebration when species was lifted off from the endangered category since 1997.
Why was the species categorised in endangered list?
The Red Sanders species has been experiencing a decline in population by 50-80 percent, for last three generations. Thus, it was again added to Endangered category.
CITES status
Red Sanders is listed under Appendix II of CITES. As a result, it is banned from international trade. The harvest of the tree is also restricted across states, but illegal trade is there in practice.
The Red List is maintained by IUCN. It is a list of flora and fauna species and categorises them on the basis of their conservation status. The status include:
Least concern– It is for the species, which are abundant in numbers.
Extinct– It is for those species, which have completely disappeared from the planet.
Critically endangered- This category is for threatened species.
Endangered– Threatened species are added to this list
Vulnerable– The category is reserved for threatened species.
Significance of Red Sanders
Red Sanders are known for their rich hue and therapeutic properties. They are highly demanded across Asia, especially in China and Japan, to use them in cosmetics and medicinal products. It is also used to make furniture, woodcraft and musical instruments.
Study: 2021 was Earth's fifth-hottest year.

This paper is a first report on a project investigating the influence of maternal employment on the cognitive and social development of young children. The data set analyzed is the newly available "Children of the National Longitudinal Survey of Youth," a 1986 survey of the 5,000 biological offspring of the females in the NLSY data set. The paper focuses on the cognitive development of the four-year-old children, of whom there are 585. Demographic, economic, and social background factors are controlled in the analysis of relationships among maternal employment, child care, and the child's test score on the Peabody Picture Vocabulary Test (PPVT).

Exploring the Mechanisms through which Employment Affects Women's Childrearing Practices

Using data from the Children of the NLSY, this paper examines the effect of employment on emotional support and cognitive stimulation provided by mothers to their preschool age children. Measures of childrearing practices are based on mother reports as well as interviewer observations, from a short form of HOME [Home Observation for Measurement of the Environment]. The results suggest that mother's cognitive stimulation of the children seems to suffer substantially when the mother is employed, but only in the households with middle or higher levels of income. Moreover and conversely, mother's emotional support of children appears to be greater when the mother is employed, but only in the households with lower levels of income.

Home Environment: A Mechanism through which Maternal Employment Affects Child Development

This paper argues that seeking a simple, universal effect of maternal employment on the welfare of very young children is not a fruitful strategy. Instead, it suggests that: (1) maternal employment affects children through a variety of mechanisms, some positive and others negative; and (2) the consequences of maternal employment depend on the family's socioeconomic circumstances and the social context. Using data on pre-school aged children in the U.S. from the Children of the NLSY, the paper examines the impact of maternal employment on children's verbal abilities in different family economic contexts. The results indicate that while maternal absence and alternate child care arrangements have some negative impact on children's verbal ability (particularly for boys), in low-income families this negative impact is compensated to a large extent by the positive impact of maternal income and the improved quality of children's home environment which that income can buy.

An investigation of the hypothesis that women choose primarily female occupations because such jobs make it relatively easy & cost-free to withdraw from the labor force during the 2 years immediately following the first pregnancy, the time of greatest psychological & physical strains on working women. Data were obtained from the National Longitudinal Survey of Youth on a sample of 1,055 US women interviewed in 1979 & 1985 who had a first birth during that time period, & were employed at least 20 hours/week during & following pregnancy. Event-history analyses reveal no effect of occupational sex composition on the likelihood that recent mothers are employed. Occupational characteristics that raise labor force withdrawal costs (eg, high education, wages, job-specific training) & nonmonetary occupational characteristics decrease the probability of women's withdrawal from work. While all women are found to respond to withdrawal costs, women with low work commitment also respond to financial pressure & convenience of the work setting. 4 Tables, 2 Figures, 39 References.
