An email from an Indian father: I want to place on record my own story as a warning to anyone…

Sharing an email from a father of an Indian daughter.
Dear Indian Homemaker,
After stumbling upon your blog accidentally, I read with interest your post created on May 10, countering the so-called advantages of arranged marriage.
Although I have been happily married for nearly thirty years now, I have seen my own daughter suffer terribly in the arranged marriage system. While some might say that it is our culture, and love marriages are a Western import, I want to place on record my own story as a warning to anyone who might be considering the idea of simply going along with what everyone is saying, and isn't following his or her own heart just because he doesn't want ill to be spoken of his family in society. It is painful for me to write this, but I thought that I must use the internet forum to let people know how the system works.
I am retired with two daughters and a son.
It is my older daughter who has gone through hell on account of this horrible system of in-laws and dowry, and it is her that I want to write about.
About three years ago, my daughter graduated with her masters degree. She has always been extremely hard-working and being from a top college, she secured a well-paying job. Like any father, I was very proud of her and was happy that she was on-track to do very well in life without any help from me at all. The only thing left was to find a good groom for her, we thought, and after that she would be completely settled.
As my daughter had not selected any boy herself, the search began. We went all out. We published ads in papers, asked family friends, looked on matrimonial websites. Eventually, we found a boy, in the same city where my daughter worked a that time. He was from a good, well-settled family which owned a chain of businesses. He was well-spoken, confident and seemed quite modern in his ideas. We were forthright about my daughter being career-oriented and told the boy's family categorically that she would not leave her job after marriage. We were assured that it was not a problem as the other daughter-in-law was also working and most of the housework was done by maids in any case.
My daughter, docile as always, simply went along and said okay to the proposal after only a few visits.
Within one month, the marriage was finalized and the ceremony was held in 2010.
At this point, we made the mistake of paying out a hefty dowry. It sounds very naive now, but I am being candid with you; I thought this might making things a little easier for our daughter . How could I have known what monstrous characters these people were hiding behind their smiles and laughter?
From the moment my daughter entered the house, these people began plotting to get more. At first, they were nice and gentle, but soon they began to show their true colours. It started with small hints, then moved on to broad hints, taunts, fights and finally, physical assaults.
I had no idea all this was going on. My daughter never told me; I used to call up every week and she told me that all was fine. Then one day, she said that she did not want me to call her anymore. She gave absolutely no reason for this request. It was completely out of character, and I was a little hurt, but reluctantly agreed. In Jun 2011, on her wedding anniversary, to my utter shock, the ceremony was held without us even being invited! By then, I had come to the conclusion that something was definitely very wrong.
I made a surprise visit to my son-in-law's place. I told their family that I was there on business and had decided to pay them a visit. What I saw at their place made my blood boil over. My confident, beautiful daughter was treated like she was little more than a servant. When I entered, she was rudely told to get some tea, and the same people who had been so bubbly and smiley treated me as if I was a social inferior. I called out to my daughter, refused the tea, and simply stated that I was taking her out to lunch. They tried to protest, but I ignored them. It was only in the car that the whole story came out.
I have already told you the broad incidents, I won't bore you with gory details. This fiend who called himself a husband not only hit my daughter, but he actually forced himself on her sexually. Imagine! My daughter, who I have NEVER hit till date. My daughter, who I brought up as the apple of my eye. How could this man have the gall to lay his dirty hands on her? How dare this rapist, this creature of filth, force her to bow to his perverted whims and fancies? The poor girl was so traumatized that she could not even cry! It was like talking to a shell, a dry husk of a person. It broke my heart to hear her speak like that.
I took her back to her marital home, told her to pack all essential documents and objects in a bag and come back with me immediately. The boy's family created a scene of course, but at this time, I was so angry that I did not even look at them, let alone respond to their nonsense.
To cut a long story short, I got my daughter home and helped her file divorce papers and supplementary charges against the boy's family. Although this terrible chapter is over, I am committed to personally ensuring that this man goes to jail, and isn't just let off with a fine. I will make sure that he faces the consequences of his sins.
The points raised by the newspaper article (discussed in that post) seem so very shallow to me! It was written by someone who has no idea of ground reality and is floating in the dreams of a yesterday that does not exist.
Let me consider each point:
1. in a negotiated marriage, family support is a given.
What decent parent would not support their own child? And if this parent does not want to support a daughter who had a love marriage, would he support her if her arranged marriage ran into trouble? What is the guarantee?
2. If the marriage demands the girl to stay with her in-laws, it is more likely that they will make her feel comfortable as they have already 'approved' of her.
As you can judge from my story, the 'approval' is only skin-deep. There is no guarantee that these in-laws will 'approve' afterwards too. And because enough time is not usually provided, who knows what the in-laws are actually like? Serial killers can also seem very pleasant under normal circumstances, but they will show their true colours only after a certain time.
3. The process … involves understanding each other's cultural interests apart from individual views and opinions about life in general.
Complete rubbish. The process only involves ticking off certain features, as if one was buying a car. This is not a feature of arranged marriage at all.
4. Unlike a love marriage where financial security of the groom is not always a priority, in an arranged marriage, it is imperative that the bride's family ensure that their would-be son-in-law is career-oriented and has a steady flow of income.
If financial security is not a priority for the couple, then how is it important in any case? If it is a priority, then the couple will ensure it.
5. Each day is a surprise wherein the couple learn about the nitty gritty of the relationship and also take an effort to nurture it.
But are all surprises pleasant? Some things should not be a surprise. There are things that one must know well about one's husband beforehand.
6. Once the alliance is arranged, the boy and girl are officially allowed to meet and know more about each other
I do not understand what this means. Are the girl and boy not allowed to meet otherwise? If not, then how will they get married in any case?
7. Ever heard of Swayamvar, an ancient Indian practice of choosing a husband from among a list of suitors?
Do all 'Swayamvars' turn out blissfully?
8. Since both the parties are way too involved in finding the right match and also the actual activity of marriage, it takes the load off the bride-to-be and gives her time to get comfortable in her new surroundings.
I can only laugh at this, seeing how things have gone with my own daughter.
I hope I've not made this overly long. I really wanted to share it, and I hope your find it useful.

The Roots of Rape in India
By Kancha Ilaiah
Rape has, of late, become an acute disease in the Indian society. Prima facie, this is a problem arising out of a mental disorder, but there is also a larger cultural context that, to an extent, explains how the Indian male became so brutal.
Our cultural upbringing conditions male minds to behave in a cruel fashion with women. Family upbringing, societal conditioning, religious sagas and political animus, all construct our men and women into being what they are — men as aggressive and women as submissive. Which is why men here, in India, are different from men in other countries.
Their cultural milieu is different. Their spiritual systems train them differently. It's not that only Indian men rape and kill children aged three or five. This happens in other countries too, but they are the rarest of rare cases. Daily reports of infants being raped across the length and breadth of a country is a phenomenon unique to India, a society that's otherwise highly conservative. Clearly, the institutional upbringing, including that in family, needs to undergo change.
Every time a gruesome rape gets reported, we all are ashamed and angry. That's one thing; but working out ways and means to eradicate such evil is another thing. We cannot leave it entirely to the police or the judiciary to tackle such heinous acts. For, rape is also a cultural problem; and it is a more serious problem because of the extermination of the victim. We need to treat the malaise from its very roots.
We are a society that derives its sense of good and bad from our mythologies and spiritual ethics. Our gods and goddesses are not only worshipped but also adored. And it is our lifelong endeavour to emulate them. This is the cultural environment that shapes the lives of most people in India. So it's natural that what gods do influences us much more than the moral lesson at the end. Now consider this: we have gods who, for instance, have cut the nose and ear lobes of a woman who approached them professing her love (Lakshman is depicted as having done this to Shurpanakha), and yet we adore him and see him as a symbol of loyalty, sacrifice and righteous indignation.
Lord Krishna stole the clothes of women while they were bathing in the Yamuna river. He did so to tease them and for the pleasure of watching the beauty of their naked bodies. We hang miniature paintings of the same act in our homes proudly. The young men who grow up seeing this, or listening to the story told in an amused tone are bound to not find such an act abhorrent.
We also have a god, Shiva, who insisted on entering the bathing arena of Goddess Parvati and did so by eliminating a child who was keeping guard at the open door. Lord Ganesha is said to have emerged out of such a union. Is this right or wrong? Our mythology tells us that what a husband does is right, that his will is greater than the woman's. If a mythological hero is praised for his acts of killing, drinking and fornicating with multiple women (like Indra did with Rambha, Urvashi, Menaka, Tilottama and so on), it is glorification of such behaviour.
When such stories are a part of the mythological texts, they should, at least, be critically evaluated and given a more contemporary, political reading which is rooted in the concept of equality. Instead, the tendency is to not question what our gods did, but simply admire such acts.
Barring a few exceptions, there is no appreciation, per se, of a healthy man-woman relationship which is rooted in the concept of equality. Indian women are shown as lathangi (a person of delicate body), never strong enough to resist her dehumanisation. Though Durga and Kali are shown as strong, in real life such militancy is not seen as feminine.
Now let us turn to the political spectrum. We have had many great men — Mahatma Gandhi, Jawaharlal Nehru, Sarvepalli Radhakrishnan etc — who got married at a young age with girls of much younger age, went abroad for higher studies, leaving their wives at home totally illiterate or semi-literate. We do not know how these men, or Gokhale and Tilak, treated their wives.
But we know that they were all devotees of the deities mentioned above. The only man who treated his wife as a friend and educated her right from the first day of his marriage, Mahatma Jyotirao Phule, is not taught as an example to be emulated in our texts. Somehow, in our patriarchal cultural milieu, unkind and inhuman treatment of women has never been a matter of concern. It's considered sacrilegious, for example, to question Lord Ram for leaving his dutiful wife on the random outburst of a dhobi.
And Sita's action, in turn, to not question, but to commit suicide, is considered the epitome of all that is pious. Even Gautam Buddha left his young wife, with an infant child. Questioning such acts has never been part of our public discourse.
Or, look at our cinemas. Ever since the industry came into being, silent or talkie, it has used woman's body as a money-making object. The song and dance sequence that it has adopted as an art form falls into a common pattern — every hero is licensed to misuse the body of the heroine. The romance in our film industry is not romance; it is vulgarity bordering on the criminal.
So is it a surprise that men of this country see it as their right to violate women in all spheres of life?

This Happens Only in India: Panchayat Orders Victim to Marry the Rapist
Panchayat orders girl to marry her rapist
By Purusharth Aradhak
BULANDSHAHR: A panchayat in Bulandshahr passed a bizarre diktat on Thursday ordering a man to get married to the girl who was sexually assaulted by him three days ago. The girl had been alone when her neighbour's guest entered the house, gagged and raped her. The victim later informed her family about the incident. The accused is a resident of Kasna in Gautam Budh Nagar district.
The victim's family then approached the police. By then the accused went to the panchayat and asked them to hush up the matter. The panchayat ordered the accused to get married to the girl. They even threatened the girl's family if they did not follow the diktat.
The family had approached the Bulandshahr SSP Gulab Singh but failed to get any respite. Later, after the matter came into the media, the accused was arrested and a FIR lodged under Section 354 of the IPC.

The Concept of Marital Rape Is Not Recognized in Indian Law
December 7, 2012 tvaraj	4 Comments
"Rape is rape regardless of the relationship between the rapist and the victim. It can be a total stranger; someone you recognise by sight, but have never really communicated with; someone you know superficially, a neighbour or a colleague; a friend, a boy-friend or a former boyfriend; a live-in partner, or a former partner; someone you are married to or have been married to in the past." – What is Marital Rape ? (http://www.blessedmember.com)
Criminal law considers rape as sexual assault usually involving sexual intercourse initiated by one or more persons against another person without that person's consent. The act may be carried out by physical force, coercion, abuse of authority or with a person incapable of valid consent, such as being unconscious, incapacitated, or below the legal age of consent.
In every contention of rape, the absence of consent of the victim to have sexual intercourse with the aggressor is extremely important. Consent does not need to be conveyed, and may perhaps be implied from the perspective, and from the rapport existing between the individuals. However, the lack of protest does not itself constitute consent to have intercourse. Consent can always be withdrawn at any time. So any further sexual activity after the withdrawal of consent is rape.
Lack of consent may be a result of either forcible compulsion by the aggressor or an incapacity to consent on the part of the victim like the person asleep, intoxicated or psychologically vulnerable.
Generally, we come across the following categories of rape: date rape, gang rape, incest rape, child sexual abuse, prison rape, acquaintance rape, war rape, statutory rape, marital rape, etc.
Some research literature may extend the term spousal/marital rape to include divorced/legally separated ex-spouses, or unmarried cohabiting partners. However, current state laws often treat rape by ex-spouses or intimate partners as different from marital rape, and legally equal to rape, by a stranger. However, it does not seem to be so in India. Three days ago, I saw this news in hindustantimes:
New Delhi, December 04, 2012
A man has been discharged by a Delhi court of charges of raping his wife on the ground that having sexual relation with his spouse, even forcibly, does not amount to "marital rape." District Judge JR Aryan let off accused Hazi Ahmed Saeed, agreeing with his counsel's submission that the Indian Penal Code does not recognise any concept of "marital rape."
"Defence counsel rightly argued that IPC does not recognise any such concept of martial rape. If complainant was a legally-wedded wife of accused, the sexual intercourse with her by accused would not constitute offence of rape even if it was by force or against her wishes," the court said.
The court remanded the case back to a magisterial court as rest of the alleged offences, including those of causing hurt, criminal intimidation and theft, for which the accused was charge-sheeted, were triable by a magistrate.
The case was committed to the district judge after the charge sheet was filed by the police as the offence of rape was tried by sessions court.
The woman had filed the case in 2007 alleging that after her first husband's death, accused Saeed started visiting her and by expressing sympathy, he asked her to marry him.
She had told the court that she married Saeed in February 2006, but later she came to know that the accused had married her only to grab her property which was then sold by him and his four sons.
The police had said in its charge sheet that Saeed had maintained physical relations with the complainant after their marriage and it could be a possibility that those physical relations were against her consent and wish. (sic)
What a shame?
In a non-consensual sex offense, if the perpetrator is the victim's spouse, we call it marital rape, spousal rape, partner rape, domestic violence, or sexual abuse.
Once widely condoned and ignored by law, international conventions now repudiate spousal rape and increasingly criminalize it. However, in present-day India, like in medieval Europe, a stranger can legally marry a woman with her parents' consent and without hers. After getting married, she could no longer refuse to consent to sex. Her husband can force her to have sex with him at any time he has the urge since the society widely condones his wish, and the law does not consider it as an act of violence, but accepts it as a husband's prerogative.

Sometimes you meet someone who makes you think twice about what you know…or what you think you know.
You think you have someone measured, or a certain way of thinking about someone.
I had one of those moments with Emerald Peaceful Greenforest. Thought I had her all figured out from a distance. then I got more involved in her world with some common friends and activities. Started seeing the intelligence and wisdom that she carries.
Her business expertise and life helps her really identify with those of us men who are serious about making impact and making money.
Check out the interview we did on her Men On Purpose Podcast. I'd love to hear what you think!

The professor makes another blue as Age publisher quits
Steve Harris is a world-class newspaper publisher and Fairfax will be the worse after he resigned as publisher of The Age this week.
Harris took on the tough job as Age publisher and editor-in-chief in mid 1997 and did a good job in difficult circumstances.
Crikey has previously criticised Harris for being too close to Victorian Premier Jeff Kennett but this in part reflected the views of his commercial masters.
His predecessor as editorial chief at The Age, Bruce Guthrie, was sacked in part for being too adversarial towards Kennett and this was arguably a fair criticism. However, Guthrie felt it was his role to compensate for the excessive pro-Kennett biases displayed by the Herald Sun (then under Harris) and 3AW. Besides, the media should have a naturally adversarial relationship with the government of the day.
Harris was a pragmatic and ambitious newspaper executive and he did try to improve The Age's relationship with Kennett because it was damaging the paper commercial. Crikey's dad gave up The Age on Kennett's urging and has never gone back to it.
Harris didn't go too far over the line in trying to mend the fence with Kennett but at the same time the Herald Sun became even more pro-Kennett under Harris's successor Peter Blunden. This climaxed with a front page HUN editorial in October 1999 urging the three independents to back the Libs. Thankfully they went the other way and Kennett's time was up.
The Herald Sun was predictably negative in its coverage of Harris's departure with lines such as the following:
"The Age's circulation has dropped from 209,000 to as low as 191,000 in the past three years. In contrast, the Herald Sun enjoyed daily circulation consistently above 550,000."
This fails to acknowledge that The Age has never been more profitable than now because they are no longer madly discounting sales to get circulation up.
Then there's this line in the Herald Sun story:
"Bitter industrial disputes have also dogged The Age, and a snap strike by printers prevented the paper being published on November 23. The paper also catastrophically failed to appear on Grand Final day after Fairfax locked out its journalists."
Ironically it was Harris who deftly broke the union at the Herald Sun when he built up staff trust to such an extent that about 100 reporters and section editors quit the union and signed no-strike contracts, Crikey included. However, the Herald Sun didn't even acknowledge that Harris ever worked there.
Similarly, most of the blame for the industrial dispute was sheeted home to chief executive Fred Hilmer whose hamfisted approach to IR cost the company about $15 million in lost revenue.
It is also Hilmer who seems to have this textbook driven strategy of shuffling executives around between positions and cities. Harris was told to go Sydney, didn't want to and resigned.
However, if Harris was ever to have taken over as chief executive of Fairfax, he needed to move back to Sydney at some point. When he was first offered the position of Age editor-in-chief in 1996, Harris declined it when Lachlan Murdoch offered him a position working out of his office in Sydney.
However, Harris did not play his politics in Sydney well. He set up something called News 2000 which got locked into a cost cutting platform.
I can remember having lunch in late 1997 at Lucio's in Paddington with News Ltd's current CEO, John Hartigan, and then Daily Telegraph editor Col Allan.
Col disdainfully commented that Harris never once stepped onto the Telegraph newsroom floor during his year in Sydney and then pointed out that Harto had the job Harris wanted, namely that of Group Editorial Director.
When Harris attempted to lure me from the Telegraph to The Age in 1997 his comment was: "Why would you want to work there?" Harris was always a quality man. He frowned on the big-boozing, cops and robbers mentality of Col Allan and used to claim the Herald Sun was the most upmarket tabloid in the world. When working under him as Herald Sun business editor, I was amazed at the amount of material Harris kept across. He constantly sent cut-outs from US magazines with suggestions of how we could do things better.
Ironically, the Group Editorial Director position is now vacant at News and the Murdochs would be smart to pick Harris up, however, he is genuinely reluctant to move to Sydney, apparently because his wife did not enjoy her time there.
This would involve again being in the same building as the lamentable Telegraph columnist Piers Akerman. Harris was the man who saved the Herald Sun from the ruins of Akerman's reign of terror that ended in 1992 when he was temporarily sent to work for Fox in American.
Harris did a terrific clean up job and arrested the paper's sliding circulation, recruiting well with people like Mike Sheahan and Geoff Wilkinson. He would never have left Fairfax in the first place if Conrad Black's goons had not overlooked him for the editorship of The Age in preference for Alan Kohler in 1992. Kohler is one of Australia's best business journalists but even he admits his term at The Age was not successful.
So what does Harris do now? Harris is the best editor-in-chief that Crikey ever worked with and should be inundated with offers from rival media companies.
PMP Communications have gradually moved their head office from Melbourne to Sydney to be nearer the farms of chairman Cowley and CEO Muscat. Both of them are now completely discredited and Harris would be perfect for the job, and could stay in Melbourne.
However, PMP is in such trouble it is preparing to sell its magazine division with an information memorandum expected to come out in February.
Alternatively, the Murdochs could think about slotting Harris in as managing director of the Herald & Weekly Times, although even the tribally loyal Blunden would probably resign in disgust if that happened.
Julian Clarke has been CEO of the HWT for too long now so maybe it is time for a change. The Murdochs have a fairly Sydney-centric view of the world and this is said to have played against Julian's chances of getting the News Ltd CEO post that went to Hartigan.
Insiders also say that Clarke's chances took a dive after three senior HWT executives were dismissed almost two years ago over an alleged fraud which had been perpetrated for quite a while undetected.
Sydney Morning Herald publisher Greg Hywood is returning to his home town after a 23 year absence to replace Harris. Sadly, Fairfax have not taken the opportunity to unwind its publisher model management structure The same person should not be responsible for editorial and the bottom line because there is a fundamental conflict of interest.
Michael Gawenda and Mal Schmidtke are both well-credentialled to run The Age's editorial lines and Hywood can then have enough time to get on top of the paper's $500 million a year business.
The new $220 million print plant at Tullamarine is the big project to manage and The Age is facing industrial strife as it looks to reduce its printing staff from about 260 to 160 and demands that all existing printers reapply for their jobs.
Maybe Harris, who collected $563,870 last year, had become a major stumbling block in these negotiations because he is reasonably hard-line on industrial issues.
If Harris has not popped up anywhere by October this year then he is exactly the sort of person who should run for the Fairfax board.
Helen Lynch went from being a reasonably senior Westpac executive to a director and that is exactly what Harris should do because the Fairfax board has no-one on it with any newspaper experience.
Rupert has his spy in Mark Burrows, Packer has three allies in Sir Rod Carnegie, David Gonski and Brian Powers and there is still no-one with any intimate understanding of newspapers.
Harris is a world-class publisher and the board should have worked much harder to keep him. If Harris put himself forward to shareholders, they would almost certainly vote him onto the board in a flash. Then at least someone in the boardroom could point out some of the deficiencies of the MBA-obsessed management guru Fred Hilmer, whose tenure at the top is looking increasingly chequered.

BB pistols have the potential to cause just as much injure as actual weapons. You will discover no laws up against any person using a BB weapon and without any ordinances practiced on adult men and women or toddlers who unique them. This is why, multiple personal injuries have resulted in careless use-within both dogs and cats and individuals. This essay will research the hazards of BB pistols and debate that further restrictions needs to be put in region preceding they are purchased.
BB gun pellets is usually minimal, nonetheless they could still inflict much cause harm to if created for particular parts of the body. If an individual would be to recklessly intention a BB handgun at specified parts of someone's scalp-for instance a smooth subject or an setting up-it may possibly induce brain destroy or passing away of these consumer. A different part to keep in mind is precisely what would happen in case a BB handgun pellet landed in someone's focus. That eye may be provided unproductive in addition to injured person is blinded because of the work.
Some which may be are likely to harmfully affected by reckless BB rifle use are family pets. Wild birds get destroyed or seriously hurt every single day by little ones who remove for fun. Other small children purchase some peculiar pleasure in torturing small but effective cats by pelting all of them BB weapon pellets. It goes on frequently with no any individual knowing due to BB guns are given out as baby toys to very often reckless youngsters ..
Probably the most frightening certainty of BB pistols is because they are perfectly lawful for any person. This means that untrained youngsters normally requires some thing with most likely dangerous force and then use it in a whim. These pistols are available just about anywhere as well as at deals that small children can potentially manage. A child could instantly enter a store, get a BB pistol, and go out without requiring her or his fathers and mothers being aware of it. Just one more hazard would be the fact some of these guns are at low costs built, leading to malfunction and the hurt of student that is using them.
Perhaps it is harder to employ ordinances on anything at all which has been regarded as a toy for a great number of years.

Home In Parliament KINGSTON RSL 100 YEARS
KINGSTON RSL 100 YEARS
Mr PASIN (Barker) (13:56): I'm pleased to inform the House that, last Sunday, the Kingston SE RSL Sub-branch celebrated its centenary. Like so many RSL sub-branches around the country, they have supported returned veterans and their families since their establishment.
The Kingston RSL was established when 10 returned soldiers met at the local council chambers in February 1920 and proposed the establishment of the sub-branch of the Returned Soldiers and Sailors Imperial League. Meetings were initially held in council chambers on the last Saturday of every month at around 3 pm. Over time, that space became far too small, so they moved to the old town hall before purchasing their own premises in 1955.
The sub-branch was an integral part of the social fabric of the regional community, with horseraces, card parties, dances, balls, football carnivals, regattas, beach carnivals, and picnics—even an ugly man contest. I think I would have taken that out if I'd been there! The Kingston RSL supported ex-servicemen and their families socially and economically.
More recently, RSLs have helped us better focus on commemorative activities. Many have remarked on the growing popularity of Anzac Day parades, with growing attendance across the country. It is a credit to RSLs like the Kingston sub-branch that our younger generations continue to unite out of respect for and to support our veterans. Congratulations to the Kingston RSL on a fantastic 100 years.


On April 10, President Trump nominated Andrew Brasher to be a district court judge in the Middle District of Alabama. The Senate Judiciary Committee held Brasher's hearing on June 6. His committee vote is scheduled for June 28. People For the American Way wrote to committee members to express our opposition to the Brasher nomination. You can download our letter here.
On behalf of the hundreds of thousands of members of People For the American Way across the nation, we write in opposition to the nomination of Andrew Brasher to be a district court judge in the Middle District of Alabama. His work in the state's solicitor general's office reflects his own extreme vision of the law and demonstrates that he is unqualified for a lifetime position in our federal judicial system.
In 2011, Brasher chose to leave private practice at a major law firm in Birmingham to join the solicitor general's office, where his sole client would be the state of Alabama. The state is well known for its hostility to abortion rights, civil rights, LGBTQ equality, immigrant rights, and other core constitutional values.
There were no surprises as to the type of extreme legislation Brasher would be called upon to defend in his position in the state's solicitor general's office. It is no stretch of the imagination to assume he shared his chosen client's radical ideology, including the belief that judges should interpret the law in ways that permit and reflect his extremism.
Zealous representation of one's client in no way justifies an effort to perpetrate a fraud upon the court. The lack of integrity manifest in Brasher's litigation decision severely undermines any claim that he is qualified for a lifetime position as a federal judge. We strongly oppose his confirmation.

Q: Unity3d android считать настройку автоповорота экрана Как в Unity в приложении под android считать текущую настройку автоповорота экрана, которую задал пользователь в настройках телефона?
Мое приложение умеет работать в разной ориентации экрана, но почему-то всегда реагирует на поворот экрана. Мне же нужно, чтобы приложение реагировало на поворот только если пользователь включил (разрешил) в телефоне "Автоповорот", если же запретил - то приложение не должно реагировать на поворот.

A: Вот тут есть возможное решение.
void OnApplicationFocus(bool haveFocus)
{
    if (haveFocus) GameScreen.ToggleAutoRotation();
}

static void ToggleAutoRotation()
{
    AutoRotationOn = DeviceAutoRotationIsOn();
    Screen.autorotateToPortrait = AutoRotationOn;
    Screen.autorotateToPortraitUpsideDown = AutoRotationOn;
    Screen.autorotateToLandscapeLeft = AutoRotationOn;
    Screen.autorotateToLandscapeRight = AutoRotationOn;
    Screen.orientation = ScreenOrientation.AutoRotation;
}

static bool DeviceAutoRotationIsOn()
{
    #if UNITY_ANDROID && !UNITY_EDITOR
    using (var actClass = new AndroidJavaClass("com.unity3d.player.UnityPlayer"))
    {
        var context = actClass.GetStatic<AndroidJavaObject>("currentActivity");
        AndroidJavaClass systemGlobal = new AndroidJavaClass("android.provider.Settings$System");
        var rotationOn = systemGlobal.CallStatic<int>("getInt", context.Call<AndroidJavaObject>("getContentResolver"), "accelerometer_rotation");

        return rotationOn==1;
    }
    #endif
    return true;
}

A: Добавлю сюда доработанный вариант, а то предложенный в ответе не компилировался.

Q: Avoid same option selected multiple times using jquery I have two tables Table1 and Table2.
Each table contains <select> tag and the options and their values were same.
Now I want to check for each table, there any option exists more than one times. If yes then alert option already selected.
My code is:
$('#table1 tr').each(function() {
    $(this).find('select').change(function() { //alert($(this).val())
        if ($('option[value=' + $(this).val() + ']:selected').length > 1) {
            alert('option is already selected');
            $(this).val($(this).find("option:first").val());
        }
    });
});

$('#table2 tr').each(function() {
    $(this).find('select').change(function() { //alert($(this).val())
        if ($('option[value=' + $(this).val() + ']:selected').length > 1) {
            alert('option is already selected');
            $(this).val($(this).find("option:first").val());
        }
    });
});

When  select same in first table and second table it will alert option already selected. What's wrong with my code?
You can test the code here.

A: The problem was that you were selecting all options (table1 + 2) whereas you should have selected options belonging to the current table, such as below.
$('#table1 tr').each(function() {
    $(this).find('select').change(function(){//alert($(this).val())
        if( $('#table1').find('select option[value='+$(this).val()+']:selected').length>1){
            alert('option is already selected');
            $(this).val($(this).find("option:first").val());
        }
    });
});

$('#table2 tr').each(function() {
    $(this).find('select').change(function(){//alert($(this).val())
        if($('#table2').find('select option[value='+$(this).val()+']:selected').length>1){
            alert('option is already selected');
            $(this).val($(this).find("option:first").val());
        }
    });
});

Demo@Fiddle
Edit:
A slightly better version:
// Have a class if you will, for your 2 tables (or more) which would avoid the use of ID's as you may not even need them
// <table class="grouped-select" ... >
// and then do:
// $('.grouped-select').find('select').on('change', function() {
// or just use tag selector
$('table').find('select').on('change', function() {
    //Cache jQuery references that you'd reuse over and over
    var $this = $(this);
    if( $this.closest('table').find('select option[value=' + $this.val() + ']:selected').length > 1) {
        alert('option is already selected');
        $this.val($this.find("option:first").val());
    }
});

A: You are selecting all the options instead of in the current table.
Live Demo
Change
$('option[value=' + $(this).val() + ']:selected')

To
$(this).closest('table').find('option[value='+$(this).val()+']:selected')

You can make single handler instead of multiple for each row and further simplify and optimize code like this.
$('select').change(function () {
    if ($(this).closest('table').find('option[value=' + $(this).val() + ']:selected').length > 1)
    {
        alert('option is already selected');
        $(this).val($(this).find("option:first").val());
    }
});

A: If you change your if statements to be specific to each table that should do it. So:
if($('#table1 tr option[value='+$(this).val()+']:selected').length>1)

and if($('#table2 tr option[value='+$(this).val()+']:selected').length>1)
and actually if you changed the selector to parent selectors you could use just the one code block of any table of this kind:
$('table').each(function() {
    $(this).find('select').change(function() {

        if ($(this).parent().parent().parent().parent().find($('tr option[value=' + $(this).val() + ']:selected')).length > 1) {
            alert('option is already selected');
            $(this).val($(this).find("option:first").val()); //put it back to 1
        }
    });
});

In this one it loops through all tables and on the change event finds the table its part of (so the id doesn't matter) and then runs your check as you had it before.
And even better than that you could use the .closest selector
$('table').each(function() {
    $(this).find('select').change(function() {

        if ($(this).closest('table').find($('tr option[value=' + $(this).val() + ']:selected')).length > 1) {
            alert('option is already selected');
            $(this).val($(this).find("option:first").val()); //put it back to 1
        }
    });
});

A: $('#table1 tr').each(function() {
    $(this).find('select').change(function() { //alert($(this).val())
        if ($('#table1 tr td select  option[value=' + $(this).val() + ']:selected').length > 1) {
            alert('option is already selected');
            $(this).val($(this).find("option:first").val());
        }
    });
});

$('#table2 tr').each(function() {
    $(this).find('select').change(function() { //alert($(this).val())
        if ($('#table2 tr td select option[value=' + $(this).val() + ']:selected').length > 1) {
            alert('option is already selected');
            $(this).val($(this).find("option:first").val());
        }
    });
});

A: Try with attribute selector in jquery
$('[id ^= "table"] tr').find('select').change(function() {
    if ($(this).closest('table').find('option[value=' + $(this).val() + ']:selected').length > 1) {
        alert('option is already selected');
        $(this).val($(this).find("option:first").val());
    }
});

Driver Line-Up Confirmed for the IMSA Season: De Phillippi, Edwards, Krohn and Spengler Start in the BMW M8 GTE for 2020.
Please login to view contact details.
Thomas Plucinsky
Munich, Germany- December 18, 2019... The driver line-up for this season's IMSA WeatherTech SportsCar Championship, which begins in January, has been finalised. As they did last season, John Edwards (USA) and Jesse Krohn (FIN) will share the cockpit of the #24 BMW M8 GTE run by BMW Team RLL. In the team's second car, the #25 BMW M8 GTE, Bruno Spengler (CAN) will contest the full season in the IMSA series. The Canadian will form a North American duo with Connor De Phillippi (USA).
De Phillippi and Spengler will receive back-up for the highlight of the season, the 24 Hours of Daytona (USA), from Colton Herta (USA) and Philipp Eng (AUT). Edwards and Krohn will share the cockpit at Daytona with Augusto Farfus (BRA) and Chaz Mostert (AUS). Farfus, De Phillippi, Herta and Eng are the same four drivers who took victory in the GTLM class after a dramatic, rain-dominated Daytona race in 2019.
As it did last season, the IMSA calendar comprises a total of twelve rounds. At eleven of them, BMW Team RLL will contest the GTLM class with two BMW M8 GTEs. As well as the opening round at Daytona, further highlights include the 12 Hours of Sebring (USA) and the season-closing 'Petit Le Mans' at Road Atlanta (USA).
Jens Marquardt (BMW Group Motorsport Director):
"I am looking forward to the 2020 IMSA season and am confident that, with our four regular drivers, we have everything in place to make it a successful year. We are entering our twelfth year together with BMW Team RLL. We are also largely going with continuity when it comes to the drivers. John Edwards and Connor De Phillippi have a lot of experience of the IMSA series, and Jesse Krohn also did a good job in his second IMSA season in 2019. All three know the BMW M8 GTE, the series and the circuits in North America very well. Bruno Spengler has not only shown his class throughout his long DTM career, but also in his many GT outings on the endurance scene. I am sure that he will be a real asset to BMW Team RLL. At this point, I would particularly like to thank Tom Blomqvist for the great collaboration over the past five years. Whether in the DTM, WEC, Formula E or the IMSA series, like last season, Tom has coped well on any terrain. We wish him all the best for the future. The IMSA season traditionally starts with the ultimate highlight – the 24 Hours of Daytona. It will be nice to see last year's four GTLM winners – Augusto, Connor, Colton and Philipp – back at the wheel of the BMW M8 GTE there."
Bobby Rahal (Team Principal, BMW Team RLL): "Once again BMW has given us a really good core of drivers to compete with in 2020. I'm pleased with the continuity we have with John Edwards, Connor De Phillippi and Jesse Krohn returning. It is always a good thing to be able to build on the foundation you have created when possible. Bruno Spengler is a really good team player and will be a great addition. I have a lot of respect for him and everything he has done in the DTM. We are happy that Augusto Farfus, Colton Herta and Phillipp Eng, who helped us win the 2019 Rolex 24 at Daytona, will be returning to the line-up for that race and are also looking forward to welcoming Chaz Mostert back. We thank Tom Blomqvist for his commitment to the team this season and wish him luck in his endeavours."
Bruno Spengler (#25 BMW M8 GTE): "It's great to be part of BMW Team RLL now. I still know lots of the guys from the races that I contested for the team in Daytona and Sebring. Everyone has made me feel really welcome. I'm really looking forward to having a very experienced, strong GT driver as a team-mate at my side in Connor. I'm excited for the new challenge and can't wait for the season to get started."
Connor De Phillippi (#25 BMW M8 GTE): "We finished last season with a podium and naturally we wish to build on that in the BMW M8 GTE's third season in the IMSA series. We have made a few improvements within the team and already made some progress over the winter. I'm excited to see how much we will have boosted our performance. Our driver line-up is very strong. I think we are ready for the season opener at Daytona."
John Edwards (#24 BMW M8 GTE): "I'm really excited to be rejoining BMW Team RLL, especially as I keep Jesse as my teammate and also our engineer. This consistency will hopefully help us to further improve on the track as well. We had some good races last year, but all in all it was a bit up and down and didn't result in a good championship position. The goal is to be more consistent in 2020."
Jesse Krohn (#24 BMW M8 GTE): "As I will go into my third year in this series, the learning should be done. For me it's time to execute now. I know the team and we work really well together. I don't see a reason why we shouldn't have a good season in 2020. I'm really looking forward to it."

device.uuid undefined in PhoneGap on Android?
I'm writing a PhoneGap application that sends requests to a central database. It needs to be able to identify the unique devices that connect to it.
PhoneGap's device.uuid property would seem to do the trick. On webOS and iPhone, I get back a unique string of alphanumeric characters, which will satisfy my need. However, the Android devices I've tested (Motorola Droid and the Android SDK emulator, both running Android 2.1) return "undefined" as the device.uuid.
device.platform and device.name return correct values on all three platforms, so the problem doesn't have to do with the device object itself (it's defined in the code blocks where I use it).
Is this an Android limitation? A problem with PhoneGap?
Is there any other way to get such a globally unique identifier if not through device.uuid?
EDIT: It appears that the deviceready event is never getting fired, which needs to happen before the device.uuid property becomes available.
Depending on Phonegap version and/or device, you might need to install the plugin explicitly. In our project, device was present but device.uuid was undefined. Running cordova plugin add org.apache.cordova.device fixed the issue in our case.
I haven't yet found a solution for this, but it is worth noting that this issue is fixed in Android 2.2. But other than that, you'll have to find some other way of getting a unique device identifier if the device is running 2.1 or earlier.
I had the same problem. It was working previously, and I eventually traced the problem back to the manifest permissions.
If android.permission.ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE is not enabled, deviceready will not fire, and device.uuid will not be available.


There are different aspects of event management when it comes to public events. These can be games, concerts, public campaigns or political events that prompt large gathering of people in a certain area. The companies that are engaged in organizing and managing these large scale events usually have several functions to perform. One of the aspects of these arrangements is the security of the premises as well as maintaining order and peace among the crowds.
Nowadays any large gathering could be a vulnerable point which can be targeted for terrorism purposes. For that reason, it is necessary to have intelligence and security installed to inspect and guard the premises. Most security agencies nowadays have the necessary personnel, technology and equipments to inspect a premise, install necessary surveillance technology in different areas and to have personnel guarding the different vantage points. For all these functions, hiring a crowd controller and related security personnel and services have become a necessity these days.
Most large events are usually held in wide grounds and spaces where manual security and surveys might not be enough to ensure that all corners and points are checked for signs of disturbance or intrusion. Often, a venue where an event is being organized needs high-level security due to the equipments that are set up for being used during the event. Hence, the event organizer needs to coordinate with a security agency to send across personnel like crowd controller who can keep an eye on the premises as well as install security and surveillance equipments for remote and real-time monitoring of the different points.
Before commencement of a large public event, there are several preparations that need to be done to decide on the ways of crowd management. Usually a supervisor is appointed among the security personnel who assigns different responsibilities to the different members, discusses the norms of regulation and control and the ways the crowd needs to be managed.
From the time the crowds start to come in for attending an event, the work of the guards starts off. They need to inspect the visitors by running body or bag checks as directed by management. The people are asked to line up for entering the best function venue Melbourne or are assisted by providing information as required by them. Installation of signs and orders are also part of their responsibility.

About SpinChat
Teacher testimonials
"This is easily one of the best programs we've been involved with and I look forward to our continued involvement each year."
Irymple Secondary College
"Our speaker was frank and honest. His manner and humour captured the students' attention. This presentation was one of the highest ranked on our feedback survey for our Wellbeing Week."
Cobden Technical School
"We would recommend SpinChat to other schools and look forward to having speakers return. The students took on the importance of the prevention message; they were talking about it for days afterwards."
William Ruthven Secondary College
"It has been especially pleasing to hear feedback from Year 12 students who have said that they will think more carefully about the risks associated with the activities they engage in."
Beaconhills College
"The presentation helped students identify the dangers and make them more realistic. Not just a statistic but an actual face to empathise and see that spinal injury affects anyone."
"The speaker's presentation was quietly moving and the students were engaged the entire time."
Yarra Hills Secondary College
"It was really good to hear Shane's story instead of some educator saying, 'don't do this and don't do that."
Student, Ballarat High School
"We had an eye opening experience. Joel gave us a detailed account of his accident and how it has affected his life after it. We feel this program is really important because as students we don't normally get the opportunity to learn about the problems that come with being in a wheelchair."
Student, Holmesglen Vocational College
"After listening to the presentation I am now more aware of the risks and dangers in things that I do. I also learned that sometimes it's best not to dwell on the negatives but to keep a positive attitude and move on with your life".
Student, Kilbreda College
"Selena showed me that accidents can happen to anybody. She told us not to wrap ourselves up in cotton wool but at the same time be careful and think of consequences before you do anything that could potentially be dangerous."
Student, St Paul's College
If you have feedback from a recent SpinChat session held at your school, we would love to hear it!


Jabula Interior Projects were asked to conceal the wires in the wall behind a flat screen TV (used for video conferencing) in one of our clients' boardroom.
We had to move the large table and chairs, lift up the floor boards as well as the carpet, cut the floor for cabling, cut a "chase" in the wall and then fill in the wall, decorate and relay the carpet.
As can be seen in the "after" picture it looks perfect and the client is delighted!
