Will misconduct allegations against a prosecutor sink the murder conviction of Jodi Arias, 39? Defense lawyers are trying to achieve just that in a hearing on Thursday before the Arizona Court of Appeals. Maricopa County prosecutor Juan Martinez has faced allegations of misconduct in office for a while. Claims include sexual harassment, and revealing a juror's name to a trial blogger. He was recently reassigned from death penalty to auto theft cases.

The Court of Appeal has ruled the first deportation flight taking asylum seekers to Rwanda can go ahead tomorrow. Rights campaigners have argued that the government policy is inhumane and will put migrants at risk.

Prime Minister Dr. Keith Rowley cannot lay the Firearms User's License Audit in Parliament. On Wednesday, Justices of Appeal Nolan Bereaux, Peter Rajkumar, and Maria Wilson ruled that the injunction against the Prime Minister remains. However, they deemed it to be too wide and it was varied. The Prime Minister will not be able to lay the Report in Parliament or a summary of it, except to those who are named in it so they can make representations. Only when these comments are incorporated into the Report can the Audit Report be shared with Cabinet. Those named in the report will only receive a copy of those parts of the report which affect them. The Appeal Court Justices ordered that the report must be redacted and this will remain in place until Justice Devindra Rampersad gives his decision on the challenge to the report, which is expected on March 3rd. On December 13th, High Court Judge Devindra Rampersad granted the injunction in favour of former Commissioner of Police Gary Griffith to delay the publishing of the report.
The far right activist, 35, has been in prison for two months after being locked up in May for filming defendants involved in a criminal trial at Leeds Crown Court and broadcast the footage on Facebook to 250,000 people. Robinson, whose real name is Stephen Christopher Yaxley-Lennon, has successfully appealed against his 13-month jail term for contempt of court – but his case will be heard again, judges ruled today. The decision to send him to prison has sparked several protests all over the country and the campaign to get him freed has garnered support abroad, especially in the United States. Fans were crying with joy and cheering when the news spread outside the High Court today where anti-racism campaigners also stood chanting against him.

An appellate court, commonly called an appeals court, court of appeals (American English),appeal court (British English), court of second instance or second instance court, is any court of law that is empowered to hear an appeal of a trial court or other lower tribunal. In most jurisdictions, the court system is divided into at least three levels: the trial court, which initially hears cases and reviews evidence and testimony to determine the facts of the case; at least one intermediate appellate court; and a supreme court (or court of last resort) which primarily reviews the decisions of the intermediate courts. A jurisdiction's supreme court is that jurisdiction's highest appellate court. Appellate courts nationwide can operate by varying rules.
The authority of appellate courts to review decisions of lower courts varies widely from one jurisdiction to another. In some places, the appellate court has limited powers of review. "Generally speaking, an appellate court's judgment provides 'the final directive of the appeals courts as to the matter appealed, setting out with specificity the court's determination that the action appealed from should be affirmed, reversed, remanded or modified'".

The court of appeal (Norwegian: lagmannsrett, lit. 'lawman's court') is the second level of courts of justice in Norway, reviewing criminal and civil cases appealed from the district courts. There are six courts of appeal, each covering a jurisdiction and based in a city. Each court is led by a senior judge president (lagman) and several appellate judges (lagdommer). The courts are administrated by the Norwegian National Courts Administration. Decisions from civil and criminal matters, except the question of guilt, can be appealed from the courts of appeal to the Supreme Court.
In criminal cases where the crime is punishable by no more than six years in prison, the court consists of three professional judges and four lay judges; all seven have equal votes in the decisions. In order to convict, five of the seven judges must vote for conviction. Even if the bench is reduced because of a recusal, the requirement for five guilty votes remains, as was the case in the trial of Atle Torbjørn Karlsvik, who was acquitted after four judges voted to convict, while two voted to acquit.

Prince Arthur: The Tudor King Who Never Was by Sean Cunningham
Virtual book tours are taking over the internet. Earlier this year we took part in the blog tour for Kristie Dean's book On The Trail of the Yorks.
Today we are part of the tour for Sean Cunningham's new book Prince Arthur: The Tudor King Who Never Was, a look at the life of Prince Arthur, the first son of King Henry VII and older brother to King Henry VIII. Other stops on the tour include guest posts by Sean and excerpts from the book. Our stop is a review of the book. There are links to the other tour websites at the end of the article.
Prince Arthur: The Tudor King Who Never Was begins with the early reign of Arthur's father, King Henry VII and Henry's desire that Arthur would become a king that unified England after the tumultuous Wars of the Roses. Henry laid out very specific plans for Arthur's education and upbringing to ensure he was prepared when he became king.
The book explores the period of the Wars of the Roses and Henry's rise to the throne and then delves into the life of Prince Arthur. Arthur died when he was 15 years old, however Cunningham is able to examine those years with the help of numerous contemporary sources. Arthur's birth and early childhood is explored to understand the tense situation in England following the Wars of the Roses.
Cunningham lays out how Henry installed Arthur as the Prince of Wales, Earl of Chester, Duke of Cornwall and made a Knight of the Bath all within the first few months of his birth. The titles helped solidify the reign of Henry and showed England there was a legitimate heir to the throne.
Before Arthur turned three King Henry was already making plans for his wedding, choosing the youngest daughter of Isabella of Castile and Ferdinand of Aragon. Arthur's marriage to Catherine of Aragon would create and alliance between England and Spain against France.
Cunningham describes the "Wedding of the Century" with great detail from the pageantry to the ceremony and the tournaments held, nothing is left out. Cunningham also examines the couples first wedding night as man and wife. Whether they consummated their marriage that night is extremely important. It is at the core of King Henry VIII's argument when he tries to divorce Catherine.
Arthur and Catherine married in November 1501 and moved their household to Ludlow Castle shortly afterward. Six months later Arthur died, most likely from the Sweating Sickness on 02 April 1502. Arthur's death was a huge blow to King Henry VII's plan for the future of England and set the stage for Arthur's younger brother Henry to become King of England.
Through contemporary sources Cunningham details Arthur's life, death and funeral. Had Arthur lived the world would never know King Henry VIII and England's history would be very different. While Arthur is usually a footnote, or a paragraph or two in most discussions Cunningham paints a vivid picture of a prince groomed to be king.
Prince Arthur: The Tudor King Who Never Was is a fascinating book about the life of a Prince with the weight of a kingdom on his shoulders. I highly recommend you read this book for a better understanding of Prince Arthur, Henry VII and the Tudor Dynasty.
You can buy Prince Arthur: The Tudor King Who Never Was on the Amberley website or check your favorite bookseller.
Medieval Archives gives Prince Arthur: The Tudor King Who Never Was 4 out of 5 stars.

It may only be his third feature length film as director, but Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri is already causing a stir for filmmaker Martin McDonagh. Having helmed 2008's critically acclaimed In Bruges, followed by 2012's Seven Psychopaths, this latest project has already attracted the likes of Woody Harrelson, Frances McDormand and Sam Rockwell to its cast, and now adds Abbie Cornish and Caleb Landry Jones.
Written by McDonagh, too, the film follows Mildred Hayes (Frances McDormand), who is grieving for her murdered daughter. Frustrated at what she perceives to be a distinct lack of interest on the part of the local police, she hires three billboards and uses them to manipulate the local law enforcement into action. At the top of her list of police failures is Sheriff Bill Willoughby (Woody Harrelson), while his subordinate – Officer Jason Dixon (Sam Rockwell) – has developed a theory about the crime. Dixon and Hayes begin to work together in order to distribute the justice they feel has been lacking.
Abbie Cornish (Seven Psychopaths, Robocop) has now been cast as the wife of Sheriff Willoughby, and Caleb Landry Jones will play the owner of the billboards, who meets violence at the hands of Officer Dixon. Cornish has collaborated with McDonagh before, while Landry Jones has been busily featuring in the upcoming revival of Twin Peaks for David Lynch.
The work of Martin McDonagh has always proven itself to be filled with razor-sharp wit, without skimping on the drama. As such, this premise, with this casting makes for a fascinating project. While it sounds as though Mildred Hayes is at the centre of the action, she is trying to make things happen in an all-male environment, which is difficult for a woman at the best of times. Add to that the unknown, but inevitable cause of the Sheriff's reticence, and Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri is definitely one to watch for.


DILI, East Timor (AP) — East Timor's president has refused to swear in 11 Cabinet ministers because of corruption investigations in a rocky beginning for a new government formed after a protracted political stalemate in the young nation.
Former President and independence fighter Jose Maria Vasconcelos, commonly known as Taur Matan Ruak, was sworn in as prime minister on Friday after a three-party alliance won a majority of parliament seats in a May 25 election.
President Francisco Guterres Lu Olo said eight nominated ministers, including for finance and defense, and three vice-ministers can't be sworn in because the public prosecutor's office is investigating corruption cases against them. Some also have previous corruption convictions, he said.
The election in May followed the collapse of a minority government that was in power for just a few months.
Despite the shaky start, Matan Ruak said the new administration would be a "confident government" that develops the country without leaving anyone behind.
"The time of lacking dialogue, of non-compliance, deadlock or crisis, is fortunately past, and was overcome by the exemplary behavior of the different parties and leaders, and by the political maturity shown by our citizens," he said.
Independence hero Xanana Gusmao, who led the biggest party in the winning alliance, did not attend the swearing-in ceremony in protest at the president's decision to block 11 of the nominees for the 43-member Cabinet.
East Timor, a former Portuguese colony, was occupied by Indonesia for a quarter century. It gained independence after a U.N.-sponsored referendum in 1999 but reprisals by the Indonesian military devastated the East Timorese half of the island of Timor.
Today, the country of 1.3 million people still faces extreme poverty. Leaders including Gusmao, who was East Timor's first president from 2002 to 2007 and prime minister from 2007 to 2015, have focused on big-ticket infrastructure projects to develop the economy, funding them from a dwindling amount of oil riches, but progress is hardly discernible.
Presidential and parliamentary elections last year were the first held without U.N. supervision.

Well as some of you know I have been having a horrible experience with my current phone company H2O Wireless. I have spent countless hours with them on the phone, so I have been traveling around trying to find another alternative to my current phone service. I spoke with one representative from H2O Wireless and they told me I would not receive a refund for my inability to text for these past weeks. The supervisor told me that H2O policy is not to issue credits or refunds. Anyways I traveled to the T-Mobile store this past weekend (love the new interior redesign by the way) and I checked out the phones while I was there. This was my first encounter with a Windows Phone 7 and I was actually impressed! I thought the UI was very clever and it was a slick looking device. HTC has always been a personal favorite of mine for phones and they did an outstanding job with this Windows phone. Since Windows Phone 7 is still an emerging mobile OS, I know the apps are lacking, but in due time they will increase to the same quantity as seen in the Marketplace and the App Store. I am surprised I liked this phone, particularly because I am strictly a Mac/ Ubuntu user. Check it out for yourself! Oh, and I have decided to go with the $30 a month plan with T-Mobile that includes 1500 minutes/texts and 30 megabytes of data. What do you all think? Is that enough? I'm trying to save money so I think it will suffice.

After the explosive events of Hand of Chaos, the Chaos Theology universe is trembling with ripple effects. A war that has long been cold and covert threatens to boil over into the open and swallow all of humanity. Ethan Morgan's plot was foiled, but the fallout from it has hit Heaven, Hell, and Limbo with unpleasant truths and consequences none of them expected. That hardly means anyone's ready to sit down and keep quiet, though. Hell's Pit Lords and Heaven's Seraphim are both eager to ratchet up the hostilities and see who can score the next victory. Limbo's forces, as usual, are stuck in the middle of the conflict and trying to keep Heaven and Hell's war from overwhelming everyone and everything. One of their best and brightest, Nathaniel Burgess, is about to step into the fray.
TV on the Radio has always been a cerebral kind of band, their sound veering in and out of experimental territory. It's always very resonant stuff, though. Particularly the stuff that either celebrates, frets, or freaks out about the mundane aspects of modern life. "Repetition," in that respect, is the apotheosis. Both the lyrics and instrumental start at a calm and simple place, and end up growing increasingly frenzy as the motif gets louder and more frantic.
As I shaped the character of Derek, he always struck me as the sort of person that a lot of TVOTR songs are about (See Also: "Dancing Choose," which is almost as good of a theme for Derek as "Repetition", but not quite). He sleepwalks through most of his life, regrets slowly building in him, suppressed by a thick layer of denial. All of it eventually starts to become too much for him. The sameness, the boredom, the feeling that he's taken a wrong track somewhere and suffocates at his rapidly disappearing future. Almost to the point of reaching a breaking point. Derek's there, ready to break the cycle, ready to snap out of it and find a new life when we meet him in Prophet of Chaos.
Derek's a graphic designer at a small, boutique firm in Washington, DC. How he ended up in the job, he can scarcely recall. He's viewed as a wunderkind of sorts, able to scratch out eye-catching designs, logos, and pages that strike people. Judging by the way his firm's clients seem to rake in the cash and business after Derek's done his thing to help them promote their latest cloud-based solution, maybe they strike people a little more than they should . . . If only Derek cared about any of it. As the only person of color in his entire office, he feels alone and isolated by the way his coworkers act around him. He's never fit in very much, and he's not sure why.
He longs for the promise of his early art school days, before he decided to go for the safest bet to a comfortable career. As safe as art usually gets, anyway. The more he thinks about it, the more his own choices disappoint him. Ever since a particularly brutal run-in with the police he had when he was younger, one he was lucky to walk away from alive given the color of his skin, he's been scared. Scared of sticking his neck out, scared of taking the risky path. He still longs for more, though. Longs for an end to the boredom and stale corporate life he shambles through during the week.
A chance encounter at an art gallery show changes things for Derek. He meets a beautiful woman, who seems far more than what she seems. The next thing he knows, a smooth-talking, Demon-worshipping Reverend and his gun-toting cultist minions are knocking down Derek's door. They say he's an Enchanter, and that he's going to help them whether he wants to or not. That was the moment the Prophet, Nathaniel, entered his life. Whisking him away from his pursuers, Nathaniel seeks to keep him safe. Nathaniel knows, somehow, that if they get a hold of Derek some truly awful things will follow. Derek just wants to stay in one piece, and preferably avoid this whole kidnapping business. But is he really an enchanter? Does he really have powers? Nathaniel has some answers for him, but can Derek handle them? Derek's beginning to realize that there's something more to him than he ever knew, something that could change everything.
To me, "One More" is about a lot of things. It evokes so much, from the repetitive perseverance of the lyrics and that rousing chorus to the weary but belligerent horn line, all staccato brass in a way that meshes perfectly with the banging piano chords. It's smooth, but there's a rawness and tension there that fits the subject matter of the song perfectly. Particularly in this case, the Alternate Take, the instrumentation and vocals really weave together to form an expansive mix that reaches out to you.
This track was something I played dozens of times (maybe more) while I was writing Prophet of Chaos. I had trouble at first solidifying the character of Nathaniel, my homeless drifter of a Prophet, but it was "One More" that crystallized both him and to a large degree the book itself. When I originally conceived of this book, Nathaniel was a mentor figure to the other characters. His "versions" of the future were what guided others to action. That arc never quite fell flat, and Nathaniel always seemed to want to bust free from the narrative straightjacket I'd put him in.
Jimmy Cliff's anthemic track helped me see what I needed to do. It helped me see beyond the mysterious mentor I had originally conceived Nathaniel as to a fighter. Almost a revolutionary, Nathaniel was someone who'd lived a life of taking dangerous risks to help others, often at great personal cost to him. But he's someone who feels he has to keep going. He's always got one more task in front of him, one more life to save, or one more sadistic evildoer to stop. He always has more to do, even when he's got almost nothing left to do it with. "One More" helped me see that Nathaniel was hero material, flawed as he was, and he could bring the world-weary struggle to the forefront in a way that would enliven the entire narrative. If there was a theme song not just for Nathaniel the character, my Prophet of Chaos, but for the entire book, this would be it.
Nathaniel is a powerful wizard of sorts. He can bend people's minds to his influence, read their thoughts, distort their perceptions, even see their futures. With power like that, why would he ever live as a homeless drifter? The reasons for it and the man himself are complicated. At a young age, he realized his powers of mentalism and what they could bring him. He did what any foolish young man would do. He used his powers for ill-gotten gains: stealing, manipulating, and scamming tourists on St. Croix, where he was born and raised. Eventually, it all fell apart.
You see, Nathaniel wasn't just a scammer and a thief. He was gay. All of it was too much for his thin-skinned father, who cared far more about his reputation and the homophobic opinions of his neighbors and family and than about his son's emotional well-being. The two grew estranged and Nathaniel left St. Croix. A series of hollow misadventures and crueler lessons led him to understand his powers were for a greater purpose, that he was wasting them on his petty crimes. The gift of Prophecy was growing in him, he could see futures, "versions" of his life and others that he could twist and derail with a few choice acts. He could turn tragedies into triumphs, disasters into miracles.
He knew what he had to do. Nathaniel wandered all over the Islands, then the US to prevent wrongs and set rights on a massive scale. Those acts and his powers put him on more radars than he could've imagined. He made friends and allies with every person he saved, every hero he created with a few choice pieces of information that placed the right person in the right place at the right time. He created far more enemies, though. Increasingly, he saw the dangers to himself, his friends, and his lovers appear in his own dreams. Versions of everyone and everything he held dear set upon by vicious killers and dangerous zealots. He had to keep a lower and lower profile, dodging and evading the swelling list of people that wanted him dead. That's Nathaniel's weariness, his toil and his conflict as he pushes forward again, into one more deadly situation that could set humanity on a bloody path if he can't stop it. And this one might be his most important one of all.

CLCH now delivering adult community services in West Hertfordshire
Starting from 1 October adult patients in west Hertfordshire now have most of their community health care provided by Central London Community Healthcare NHS Trust (CLCH)
CLCH has taken on the delivery of adult community health services from the previous provider, Hertfordshire Community NHS Trust (HCT). Both organisations have worked closely with Herts Valleys Clinical Commissioning Group to make sure that the transfer runs smoothly in the interests of patients and the adult community healthcare workforce.
There are no changes to services from 1 October as the focus is on patient safety and making sure that people continue to receive the care they need. Patients are still being looked after by the same group of skill and dedicated staff (such as district nurses and therapists) whose employment has transferred to CLCH. Home visits and clinic appointments are also still going ahead in the same way.
CLCH is a well-established NHS organisation that is already familiar with west Hertfordshire as providers of integrated community respiratory care, as well as providing sexual health services across the county.
Andrew Ridley, Chief Executive at CLCH said; "We're delighted to be building on the services we're already delivering in Hertfordshire.
"As a community healthcare provider, our focus is helping patients to look after themselves better, keep healthy and avoid trips to hospital.
"We will be working in partnership with local GPs, NHS Trusts, social care and voluntary sector organisations so that together we're able to deliver the best possible care."
Over the coming months CLCH will work with Herts Valleys Clinical Commissioning Group, which is responsible for planning and buying health services locally, to introduce a new model of care that reflects the direction set out in NHS England's Long Term Plan. This will create fully joined-up services between community, GPs, mental health, social care and voluntary services so that patients get more seamless, unified care. There will be a greater emphasis on prevention, helping patients to better look after themselves and on services intervening early and quickly to support patients in their own homes and reduce hospital admissions.
Kathryn Magson, Chief Executive of Herts Valleys CCG said: "It's been really important to make sure that this is an orderly handover for patients and staff and I'd like to thank everyone involved from HCT and CLCH as well as CCG staff for ensuring that this transfer happened smoothly.
"We're really pleased to be working with CLCH to deliver a real step change in the way that we look after patients in the community. This means various health, social care and voluntary services working together to meet patients' increasingly complex needs in a holistic way and working at a neighbourhood level to provide tailored support to local communities. We need new, innovative approaches to meeting our healthcare challenges and we'll be involving patients and local communities as we develop our plans."
Hertfordshire Community Trust is still providing some community health services for adults in west Hertfordshire. In particular it is still managing the diabetes (including diabetes podiatry) and nutrition and dietetics service and is continuing to provide community health services for children and young people, including public health nursing.

This white bean dip with fresh rosemary, garlic and lemon is a fantastic appetizer to serve when entertaining or hosting a party. If you're obsessed with appetizers, like I am, then this dish is for you!
At any party, most of the action takes place around the food, right? Yes, the drinks are important but everyone knows, great nibbles are what makes folks hang out a little longer to enjoy the fun. Of course, there has to be an exciting mix of people along with lively conversation but really…the appetizers are always the thing that people gravitate to.
Over the past few weeks, Mr. A Southern Soul and I have entertained a few different groups of friends and it's been absolutely wonderful. I've got a few fool proof strategies to quickly pull together a party, so, these get-together's were a cinch to make happen. To make things even better, we'd been having some beautiful weather so, I set up our drinks and appetizers outside and turned on some good tunes.
Since I am so infatuated with appetizers, I decided to make a new to me dip. I'd had this recipe rolling around in my brain for a couple of weeks and knew the ingredients would work really well together. I wanted my dip to be easy to make which is achieved by using a food processor or blender. Next, I wanted fresh herbs and lemon to give the beans some bright flavor. Then, with the addition of garlic and red chili flakes, my dip was all but done. I served this luscious concoction with toasted bread, crackers and raw veggies. This is a great, inexpensive appetizer made with simple canned beans that are turned into something your guests will love. Oh, and when having folks over, just remember this ~ keep things simple, preparation is the key to success and most of all have fun! Entertaining isn't effortless…it just needs to look like it is.
Drain and rinse cannelloni beans. Place beans and garlic in the bowl of a food processor. Pulse/blend until beans are broken down. Add lemon zest, juice, salt, black pepper, red chilies, rosemary, and water. Turn food processor on low to combine ingredients and slowly pour olive oil through lid tube. Continue to process until almost completely smooth.
Spoon into serving bowl and sprinkle on rosemary, red chilies along with a drizzle of olive oil. Serve immediately with crackers, bread or raw vegetables. Can be stored in refrigerator for 3-4 days.
I love garlic & herb cheese (Boursin, Alouette…) – I bet this is even better! Can't wait to try it!
Thanks Liz! I hope you enjoy this dish. Let me know how you like it.


Update 20th March 2011: Heath has made some modifications to the original script and made it more efficient, see the comments below.
Here's a script I wrote today, which updates the filtergroupslist file of Dansguardian. If you're using LDAP authentication and want to give different levels of protection to certain groups of users, you need to update the list somehow, as Dansguardian doesn't support LDAP groups. See this page for more info on filter groups.
The school I wrote this for is a Novell eDirectory site, and it will require a bit of modification to work on other sites. In particular you will need to alter the parameters of the ldapsearch command (filter string, server name, user credentials). Other LDAP servers may not support the ufn attribute, which this is based on. If your directory is well maintained and up to date you would probably be better of using the uid attribute, but this particular school hasn't populated it for all users yet (only users created with ConsoleOne and iManager populate the uid attribute by default). If you do use uid, be sure to remove the cut command.
ldapsearch outputs data in ldif format, which is difficult to use in scripts. The tool to use to convert this is awk, which unfortunately is a language I haven't learnt yet. So I found a premade awk script which converts ldif2csv (from here), removed out all the attributes and replaced them with just ufn (you may want to use uid instead).
If you use this script and modify or improve it, I'd appreciate you contributing the modifications back, as they may be useful to others (myself included)!
# Temp path, creates folder for the temp files. There are probably better ways of doing it.
# Perform LDAP search. Outputs ldif file.
# Finally, copy the file to overwrite the dansguardian list.
# I've done a simple check to make sure the file isn't too small in case of error, but it could be handled better.
Update 9-9-09: Fixed a few dumb mistakes.

In my job I do a lot of work with Directory Services such as Novell eDirectory and Microsoft Active Directory, even Apple's implementation of Open Directory once in a while. All 3 have their own tools to manage them, but generally they are proprietary in nature and differ greatly – no commonality whatsoever. For Novell there's ConsoleOne and iManager, Microsoft have their Management Console and the rather narrowly defined plugin "Active Directory Users and Computers". All of these are fairly high level in nature, and are limited in the information they present, particularly in the Windows Server 2003 case although they've made significant improvements in Server 2008. Apple – well they tride to hide the fact that you're using a directory service at all… any organisation seriously deploying a directory service does not do it with Apple.
Whenever I've needed to access a directory via the standard LDAP protocol in the past I've used a very old Java ldap browser called… ldapbrowser (which is still available at CoolSolutions). It's been extremely useful for structuring queries and exporting data, but it's now 7 years old, and quite frankly ugly to use. To export data in a usable format I was exporting an LDIF, then converting it to CSV with a free .net app I found called "LDIF2CSV" and cleaning up the resulting data. It was messy, but ldap queries are so much more flexible, and I could get data out of a directory that you couldn't using the official administration tools.
Another solution was the free Softerra LDAP Browser. It's a bit limited though as they want you to pay for the full version (LDAP Administrator). I tried it and it is an excellent tool, but at USD$250 not exactly value for money (not too bad if you're paying in USD but in NZD it's a difficult sell). The free version may suffice for some but is Windows only.
Recently however I came across Apache Directory Studio, and I don't normally gush over software like this but it's been a revelation. It's fully open sourc e, based on Eclipse, and designed to manage any LDAP directory. Ticks just about every box I can think of. Runs on Windows, Mac, Linux. Exports directly to ldif, csv or even xls.
If you need to access an LDAP directory via the LDAP protocol, this is your tool.

Newly appointed district judge tells of 'honour and privilege'
By Shuiab Khan Reporter and columnist
A Manchester barrister has spoken of his 'honour and privilege' after his appointment as a District Judge.
Sufiyan Nasim Rana, 46, has taken up the role on the North Eastern Circuit, based at Huddersfield County Court. It follows his appointments as both a Deputy District Judge and as a fee-paid Judge of the First-tier Tribunal (Health, Education and Social Care Chamber) in 2019.
Sufiyan studied Law at the Manchester Metropolitan University (MMU) before being called to the Bar (Lincoln's Inn) in 1999. After qualifying as a Solicitor in 2002 he went on to establish Azmi-Rana Solicitors in Cheetham Hill, Manchester which specialises in general civil, immigration, personal injury and conveyancing.
In 2013 he joined St Johns Buildings Chambers as a barrister and presided over a number of high-profile cases involving cerebral palsy, traumatic brain and orthopaedic injuries and fatalities and has been recognised by The Legal 500 as a leading barrister in the area.
Sufiyan has also been a part time lecturer and was an Advocacy Tutor at MMU for the BPTC.
Sufiyan said: "I am delighted to take up this position. It is an honour and privilege to be appointed a District Judge after a lengthy and competitive process.
"I have enjoyed sitting as a Deputy District Judge (part time) and Tribunal Judge in Mental Health (part time) since 2019 and now look forward to sitting as a full time Judge in Huddersfield County Court.
"I am particularly grateful for the support of my family and professional colleagues at St Johns Buildings, Manchester, which has given me the confidence to achieve this."
He was born and brought up in Luton alongside his four siblings and attended Denbigh High School before moving with his family to Manchester in 1991. He is married with three children and his wife Sadia is also a solicitor.
Sufiyan's father had worked as a production supervisor at Vauxhall factory in Luton and then as a journalist. Sadly, he passed away in 2002.
Sufiyan added: "I am sure my mother is very happy and my father would have been very proud at the appointment.
"They always spoke about the importance of education and professional qualifications and coming from humble backgrounds wanted their children to work hard and be ambitious. My father would loved to have been a lawyer and in a way I feel like I am living his dream."


Slate is a mobile surface that is designed for your everyday laptop, mouse, and device use. The idea is set to minimize all of your needs onto one surface, that rests securely on your lap.
As an avid designer and writer, I have my laptop resting on my lap for long periods of time through out the week. According to recent health news "Laptops Can Cause Male Infertility, Study Warns," the elevated temperatures generated by your laptop have been linked to male infertility. Balancing laptop computers on your lap with no protection raises the scrotum's temperature which in turn can impair sperm says researchers including Carlo Foresta of Padua University.
The Slate is a house hold accessory that is making an effort to change the way we use our laptops and our levels or productivity. At the same time Slate is looking out for men around the world, who are at risk of burning up their buddies while watching Hulu.

If the bid does go ahead Aldous is likely to join a long list of casualties that will be caused by the free school opening by losing his Waveney seat at the next General Election.
The articles then goes on to list everyone else, all of whom think the proposal in Beccles should be stopped. Jeremy Rowe, Head of the 400 year old Sir John Leman High School and five fellow local Headteachers, the local Conservative County Councillor and Suffolk County Council Leader Mark Bee, and large numbers of local parents.
They list of opponents seems to stop only when the article runs out of space.
But Graham Watson Bursar of the £13,500 a year Woodbridge School and Director of the Seckford Foundation stands alone against the this and by doing so appears to be arrogantly insisting that he knows better than local people, their MP, their County Councillor, local head teachers and thousands of local people.
This is the same man who told me at the consultation in Stanton that he did not know much about local schools in Suffolk and admitted that the "demand" at Beccles amounted to expressions of interest of 107 across three school years.
I hold out hope because I think they have clearly lost the argument on every single measure.


Three years ago, when I started high school thirty pounds heavier than everyone in my class, Mom and I came up with a light menu for La Salle Rouge, and it's been such a popular idea that Mom lets me come up with tasty, low-calorie desserts, which is one of my favorite things to do. It hardly seems fair that I have to walk away from all of that just to do trigonometry, but my mom says I have to finish high school before I concentrate on cooking. She says it's smarter to have a "backup plan," and she's made me apply to plenty of colleges and check out business majors just in case I ever want to do anything else with my life. I guess that makes sense if you're anybody other than me. When I turn eighteen, I already know what I'm going to do.
--A La Carte by Tanita Davis, p. 4-5.
All seventeen-year-old Lainey wants to do is cook--and become a famous chef someday, with her own cooking show. Being African American and a vegetarian only make her think that the field is more wide open and ready for her. She's good at cooking, something that runs in her family; both her grandmother and her mother are great cooks, and her mother co-owns a restaurant. Cooking makes Lainey feel better--something she learned from her mother, who offered her food every time she was hurt or disappointed. But then something happens that cooking can't cure--her ex-best friend, and the boy she's smitten with, treats her badly, then runs away. Lainey has to learn to deal with this, to value herself, and to not let herself be used.
A la Carte was an enjoyable read; it gripped my interest and held it. Davis' scenes are vivid, emotional, and feel real. Cooking and baking make a nice backdrop to the story, with actual recipes interspersed throughout. The recipes look like they've been handwritten on lined paper by Lainey with personal notes, and each recipe is of something she makes in the book. This makes Lainey seem more like a real person. Some readers may enjoy trying out Lainey's recipes, which adds another dimension to the book.
For the first page or two, I struggled to understand why Lainey was where she was, but once it was explained on the third page, everything seemed to fall into place, and I found myself loving the details, the tone, and the character.
The beginning of the book sets a cozy, uplifting tone, with Lainey upbeat and fairly confident, surrounded by a loving mother and grandmother, and peers who appreciate her cooking. Small good things keep happening. I enjoyed this tone, and Lainey's character, immensely. Sim, her ex-best friend, makes many appearances, and it's clear that Lainey's smitten with him. But when Sim doesn't invite her to a big party, and then runs away, it feels like there's an abrupt, major shift in tone and focus--into unhappiness, worry, and painful emotions. I felt a bit betrayed by the abrupt shift; it didn't feel like the same book, exactly, that I'd been reading and enjoying for the first ninety pages or so. Sure, there were stresses and unhappiness, but there was such a cozy feeling. Lainey's whole attitude and personality seem to change after Sim runs away, as does the story, and while that's understandable, I felt misled. A shorter setting up of life-as-usual before the change would have worked better for me.
Davis seems to know food and food preparation inside out; the specific details feel real and believable, and add to the authenticity of the narrative. She also shows us many times, through other characters' responses, just how good a cook and baker Lainey is; people rush to grab her baked goods when she brings them to her jazz club or bakes a new recipe at the restaurant. This works well, and may help readers admire Lainey. Backstory is often sprinkled nicely into the story, though there were a few places where it stopped the forward motion. Davis nicely incorporates bits of humor throughout the book, especially Lainey's mother's responses.
Lainey is an immediately likable character; she's talented, generous, brave, optimistic, and motivated. She knows what her dream is, and strides towards it. Most people treat her with great respect--at the restaurant, at the jazz club--and it's clear that she's liked. Lainey has her own cooking heroes, including Julia Child, who she calls Saint Julia. This brings both humor and a richness to Lainey's dreams and personality.
I really liked Lainey, but I wish she didn't focus so much on her weight; this comes up as a theme throughout the book, but tapers off and doesn't get resolved. She doesn't seem to see that she's beautiful, the way her mother and Chris, a boy who's interested in her, can see. I also found it hard to stay liking Lainey when, for such a long period, she treated Chris with such disdain and dismissal--exactly the way she'd been treated by Sim. Her good character, ethics, and strength win out--but I don't feel like we ever got back the upbeat Lainey found in the first third of the book, which was disappointing for me. At one point Lainey says that she second guesses herself about when her cooking or baking is done--but this isn't apparent most of the time when she cooks, and doesn't seem to fit with her love of cooking or her character. I didn't believe it. And while the jazz club was interesting and showed another interest of Lainey's, it didn't seem to go anywhere. There were also some small details that didn't feel like they fit the rest of the story, such as when Lainey says she isolates herself. I didn't see that; I saw her bringing food to her jazz class, everyone clamoring around her and the food, and her happily interacting with the chefs and kitchen workers at the restaurant.
Sim treats Lainey badly--ignoring her until he needs something from her, coming close to making fun of her in front of his friends, and more. The reader will root for Lainey to stand up to Sim, and when she does, bit by slow bit, it's a feel-good moment, or at least a relief. When Sim doesn't invite Lainey to the party, the emotion is strong and tangible; Davis creates the scenes well, inviting readers to feel what Lainey does, and see the story from her perspective. Readers will care about Lainey and what happens to her.
Lainey's mother seems believable and real, with dimension, as does Lainey's grandmother. The strong, loving women characters add to the story. Two other characters, Cheryl and Chris (Lainey's school mates) feel like intentionally added notes to the story. Cheryl adds some small relief, especially when Sim is ignoring Lainey, but the relationship doesn't go anywhere. Chris moves from a background character to, for a few chapters, a key character where he shows Lainey through her actions that she can be as callous as Sim (though she recovers and becomes compassionate again), but then he almost disappears from the book (aside from a token mention at the end). I would have liked to see these relationships developed more with Lainey, and kept as stronger threads throughout the book.
Davis builds tension well, and also creates moments of relief and positive things happening, which helps to somewhat balance out the increasing angst in the book. Many chapter endings felt abrupt, like several beats were missi or the scene was incomplete. This did not stop me from eagerly turning the pages, though. Davis' world is compelling.
The ending, though meant to be uplifting, felt a bit forced, and Lainey's choice of food to bake felt remarkably unlike most of the things we saw her bake or cook throughout the book. Though some backstory was placed to explain her choice, it didn't make me believe it. And I wanted to, because that was an important moment for Lainey. Still, I devoured all the pages, and enjoyed Lainey's journey into standing up for herself, not letting herself be used, and taking real steps toward her dream. A la Carte was an entertaining, emotional, gripping read--one I looked forward to, every chapter.

Out: the free-spending fashionista. In: the thrifty recessionista.
Recessionista is the newly coined term for a style maven on a budget. As a recessionista, you can justify your spending habits because discount brands are not only smart, they're trendy. The New York Times' article summed it up, by saying it "spins the economic downturn as an attractive retail trend." I don't know who's responsible, but it is brilliant PR for retail, if you ask me.
I'm looking to exercise my inner recessionista. I think I'm going to cave and get a pair of booties. I've been utterly against them, thinking they're too trendy, and won't last after this season. Well, after seeing Gwyneth's, and this pair of Sigerson Morrison's my co-worker friend, Ana, picked up at Target, I want a pair. But, I don't want to spend a lot of money (because, I won't wear them a lot, and I still think the trend will only last one season, two tops).

FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. — The Arkansas Medical Board has opened an investigation following reports that inmates at a county jail were prescribed an anti-parasitic drug to combat COVID-19 even though it hasn't been approved to treat the coronavirus.
Board Director Amy Embry on Thursday declined to elaborate on the investigation, which she said began in the last two days.
Washington County's sheriff confirmed Tuesday night that inmates were prescribed ivermectin, but did not say how many.
The jail's physician has said no inmates were forced to take the drug.

Thailand to return to democracy soon
Thailand's ambassador to the UN has told the General Assembly that a new civilian government would be in place in Thailand "within the coming days".
Thaksin is now in London
Khunying Laohaphan said: "With the resilience of the Thai society, you can be assured that Thailand will emerge as a stronger and more vibrant democracy. We will ensure a swift return to democracy with a definite timeline."
An interim constitution, to be put in place in the next few days, would ensure full civil liberties and human rights, she said, adding that a new civilian government would also be in place "within the coming days".
"We can well expect that one of the first tasks of the new civilian government will be to do away with martial law. Constitutional reform will lead to a new constitution and general elections within one year if not sooner.
"I wish to also assure the General Assembly that Thailand's foreign policy will remain unchanged."
She said that her country would continue to be guided by the UN Charter and remained committed to all its obligations under international treaties.
Thaksin Shinawatra, the prime minister, was ousted from power by Thai military leaders on September 19 while he was in New York attending the annual opening debate of the new General Assembly session. Laohaphan also served as UN ambassador under Thaksin.
Thaksin had been scheduled to address the assembly last week but left New York for London after learning he was no longer Thailand's leader.

A CHALLENGE FOR ROBIN HOOD
If A Challenge for Robin Hood is not among the more-memorable versions of our medieval tale, there's a reason for it. A Challenge for Robin Hood is rather bad. Then again, given that Hammer Studios, the studio best known for a particular brand of horror films decided to give this tale their own take, it's no surprise that at times the film plays like a horror film.
Unlike his Norman kinsman Sir Roger de Courtnay (Peter Blythe), Robin de Courtnay (Barrie Ingham) is a very respectful and responsible man. That doesn't shield him from Saxon hatred, but Robin at least saved young Saxon Stephen (John Gugolka) from being killed by Robin's evil cousin.
The de Courtnays rule their fiefdom with some benevolence, but once Sir Roger's father dies, Roger's evil, already quite visible, expands. Despite his father's wishes that his holdings be spread evenly among Robin, Roger and Roger's brother, the EVIL Roger decides to kill his brother and frame Robin. He also burns the will in front of everyone: the family priest, Friar Tuck (James Hayter) and the servants, including Little John (Leon Greene) and Will Scarlet (Douglas Mitchell).
Robin and Tuck manage to flee from the castle, Scarlet is arrested for helping their escape and Little John just wrestles. Roger is bothered by this, but he is equally distracted by the comely Lady Marian and her maidservant, Mary (Gay Hamilton). Robin joins a group of Saxon outlaws thanks to his superior skills and commitment to fight on their side, and is given the nickname 'Robin Hood'.
It's now up to Robin and his not-so-Merry Men to thwart both Sir Roger and his boss, the Sheriff of Nottingham (John Arnatt) as well as clear Robin's name.
The primary challenge in A Challenge for Robin Hood is staying awake through it. Even if its running time is only 96 minutes, it feels endlessly longer. There's a certain B-Movie quality to the film, as if this were not just made on the cheap but also on the quick.
Without being too harsh, I can see A Challenge for Robin Hood being a featured film on Mystery Science Theater 3000.
The Hammer trappings are on display in the opening scene involving murder and the suggestion of Sir Roger literally hunting down young Stephen. There's also some surprising lecherous moments involving either the villainous Sheriff or the more camp Sir Roger.
Acting-wise, Ingham makes for a weak Robin Hood. He's generically handsome with a perpetually open shirt but little to suggest he is a commanding figure. Arnatt's Sheriff is overtly evil, the type of role that Michael Gough would play in some of those Hammer horror films before he became the cute and cuddly Alfred in Tim Burton's Batman films. Almost to counteract him is Blythe's very camp Sir Roger, who played evil with a Capital E to the point of being parody.
Faring worse were the Merry Men. Douglas Mitchell's Will Scarlet looked half-asleep and Greene's Little John did nothing but wrestle, as if he were nothing more than the muscle. Granted, Peter Bryan's screenplay gave them almost nothing to work on, but they seemed nonentities. The worst was Hamilton as Maid Marian. She was totally blank as Marian, expressing no real emotion or apparently interest in the film.
The sole saving grace was Hayter's Friar Tuck, the pure comic relief who was allowed the wittiest moments. He could do serious, such as when he sees and overhears Sir Roger killing off his own brother, but for the most part Hayter was that little bit of levity in the film. One could say he had a leg up on everyone given he'd played the part before in The Story of Robin Hood and His Merrie Men, but Hayter was a delight in the part.
Curiously, Alfie Bass was billed as a 'guest star' in A Challenge for Robin Hood as a pie seller on his way to the de Courtnay Renaissance Faire. Why Bass was singled out as 'guest starring' is lost to time, but in a coincidence, both Bass and Hayter would go on to appear in the television comedy Are You Being Served?, with Bass replacing Hayter when the latter left the series.
The comedy seemed a bit odd. At the fair Tuck and Robin, who is disguised as a monk, tell the cloth seller they'll take the entire order of Lincoln green. "What order wears a cloth of green?" the shocked seller asks, to which Tuck replies, "The Order of St. Patrick". While this is a funny bit, it's when the film descends to a literal pie fight that one gives up.
Not that having Robin wrestle Little John as "The Masked Monk" does not make things stranger.
The fights themselves are neither exciting or comical, so one guesses as to whether A Challenge for Robin Hood is meant to be action or comedy.
It ends up being neither, and worse, for reasons I cannot guess at, A Challenge for Robin Hood all but suggests there will be a sequel.
I can cut it some slack due to the fact that it looks as if money was an object here. I can also credit it for making interesting choices regarding the legend. For example, here Robin is a Norman nobleman rather than a Saxon and Marian is the Saxon. We also see that the Merry Men most associated with Robin were servants to the de Courtnays with only Alan-A-Dale as a genuine outlaw.
Apart from that though, A Challenge for Robin Hood is a misfire: slow, a bit dull save for Hayter and a bit of a shadow in the Robin Hood mythos.

Outrage as Whanganui wiped off weather map
Editorial: Gun lobby needs to take stock and fall into line
6 Dec, 2019 5:00am

The firearms lobby was quick on the draw after this week's gun buy-back data breach.
The Council of Licensed Firearms Owners swiftly emphasised the bungle – which allowed a gun dealer to see all the details of those in the scheme – showed "precisely why a police firearm register cannot be trusted".
The Opposition, too, was keen to hammer the same point home.
National Party police spokesman Brett Hudson said the Government had failed to protect Kiwis' "private and very sensitive information".
"How can New Zealanders have confidence in the firearms register the Government is proposing when they can't even protect their personal details in their buy-back scheme?" Hudson asked.
• Premium - Auckland gun violence: 147 Auckland firearms victims hospitalised during spate of shootings
• Mike Hosking: Gun buyback goes from bad to worse
• Police confirm privacy breach on gun buy-back site, SAP apologises
• Govt gun laws will lead to more Dirty Harrys: Gun City owner
Act leader David Seymour, too, said the Government should scrap the register and called for Police Minister Stuart Nash's resignation.
No one in the Labour-led Coalition, nor the public, should give these hair-trigger reactions the time of day.
For starters, the German software company behind the buy-back website, SAP, has taken full responsibility for the privacy breach and said it occurred through "human error" at its end.

More importantly, as Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern said when announcing the register, owning a firearm is a privilege, not a right.
The largely online database will be similar to the motor vehicle register operated by the New Zealand Transport Agency and will take five years to roll out. It will feature the licence holder's full name, date of birth and address, details of firearms, restricted weapons and prohibited magazines including identifying markings and information on storage. It will record all transfers, sales, purchases, imports and exports of firearms and other items.
The Arms Legislation Bill – which follows the Government's earlier ban on military-style semi-automatics after the Christchurch mosque shootings - will also improve the authorities' ability to monitor firearms lawfully entering and exiting the country and help combat organised crime, Ardern said in September.
It is difficult to fathom that it took 51 people being killed during the March terror attack for politicians to finally get the appetite for this level of gun-law reform. It is equally hard to believe that, for so long, police have had no means to track the number of firearms in New Zealand.

Gun crime is a growing pestilence in this country and has cost taxpayers more than $2.6 million in Auckland alone since 2015. The Herald revealed this week that a surge in firearms incidents across Auckland had resulted in nearly 150 gunshot victims being hospitalised with serious injuries over the past four years.
Simmering gang tensions and illicit drugs are responsible for much of the bloodshed, with more than a dozen shootings rocking South Auckland communities. Overnight Wednesday, a man was critically hurt after being shot in Māngere in another example of the shocking spike in gun-related violence.
Of course, licensed, law-abiding firearms owners are not responsible for this scourge on our society.
But these owners shouldn't be standing in the way of police attempts to track firearms in this country as part of ongoing efforts to keep them from the wrong hands.
