- Super Bowl Ratings Redux: Why Social TV Must Address The Twitter Paradox
Any doubts that Social TV was a real phenomenon were flattened last Sunday, when Bluefin Labs tracked 12.2 million Social Media mentions of the Super Bowl, compared to 1.8 million in last year's game. For perspective, Nielsen said this year's game attracted 111.3 million viewers vs. 111 million last year. That ratings jump is headline news for NBC and its advertisers, so surely the massive increase in social buzz caused a similar celebration somewhere. null, responseDetails: Suspected Terms of Service Abuse.

An unappreciated point about today’s Supreme Court ruling is that it will have significant consequences for the federal deficit.

- Colorado wildfires visible in video from International Space Station
As Colorado Springs residents watch homes burn, astronauts on the space station have a different angle on the firesFootage released by NASA shows that the wildfires which have ravaged Colorado this month have been visible from space. The footage was captured from the International Space Station (ISS), the research and observation vessel that orbits more than 200 miles above the planet's surface.The fires, which have been burning for weeks, have already engulfed hundreds of homes, killed four people and forced tens of thousands more to evacuate. The massively zoomed out and eerily quiet perspective of the ICC provides a very different angle on the fires from the terrifying photos published daily from the scene. Inevitably, the fires look much more contained and localized, though the fact that the plumes of smoke are visible from space at all is a reminder of the sheer scale of the crisis.Yesterday, a trio of scientists underscored the link between global warming and the kinds of wildfires Colorado is currently experiencing. As humans ratchet up the planet's temperature a number of factors combine to make such fires more likely. These include more extreme temperature spikes as well as the earlier melting of winter snowpack and the creation of more favorable conditions for tree-killing mountain pine beetles.Colorado wildfiresWildfiresColoradoClimate changeNatural disasters and extreme weatherSpaceNasaInternational Space StationDuncan Clarkguardian.co.uk © 2012 Guardian News and Media Limited or its affiliated companies.

- The Latest on Listeria: Where the Germs Lurk
A couple of weeks ago I reported on the tragic listeria outbreak that occurred as a result of contaminated Colorado canteloupe melons. The latest numbers are worse and worse; this listeria outbreak has now claimed 25 lives and sickened 123, making it the worst outbreak of food-borne illness since the 1970s. In fact, as I type this a House of Representatives panel has just announced the opening of an investigation, leaning over the shoulder of the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) which was already trying to find the source of the outbreak. It's mostly political posturing, of course, but when the House Energy and Commerce Committee calls a grower on the carpet, as they have with Jensen Farms of Colorado, you know the government means business. _NULL_

- Letter from the United States: frontier spirit
Born in the US and raised in the UK, working the trails of Colorado offers a vista big enough for the wildest dreamsI am sitting in a coffee shop in Durango, a small town in the south of Colorado. The air is hot and dry outside; the jangle of cups and pleasant chatter calm me. I'm 23, and six months ago I was studying in Plymouth in the UK. The only reason I am now here working, on a seasonal job repairing the trails that crisscross the San Juan mountain range, is that I was lucky enough to be born in this country.Tea is my calling, though: I'm as British as can be, having spent 18 of my years between Plymouth and south Wales. I come from a single-parent family, my mother is a social worker, and she has single-handedly brought me and my sister up. Maybe my story tells a part of what it's like to be a graduate from a windy and wet island. So many of us have taken to the wind – friends carried off to Canada, Australia and places where they may find work and a better life. Now don't misread this as pessimism, or words from the mouth of a lazy man: I've worked in bars, kitchens and call centres to pay for my education.I turned up here in the dusty town of Durango during a lightning storm, with a backpack and $500 to my name. The horizon is broad here: you can project your ideas and dreams on to it.Life is slower, people are more open, and chances are still here for those who hard and prove themselves. That's still the American spirit, you see, something we don't hear about so much any more.My job involves spending 10 days out in the middle of nowhere at a time; I work with eight other motivated people of a similar age. We sleep out in tents in all weathers and bust out 10-hour days for around $7.50 an hour.

- Ratko Mladic to be arraigned on genocide charges at UN tribunal
Former commander faces charges of crimes against humanity, including massacre of 7,000 Muslims at SrebrenicaThe former Bosnian Serb general Ratko Mladic will be arraigned on 11 charges including genocide and crimes against humanity on Friday morning, judges at the international criminal tribunal for the former Yugoslavia have announced.The former commander of the Bosnian Serb army faces accusations that forces under his command massacred over 7,000 Bosnian Muslim men and boys in Srebrenica in July 1995.The indictment also alleges his troops tortured, mistreated and physically, psychologically and sexually abused civilians confined in 58 detention facilities in 22 municipalities. Mladic is also facing charges for the shelling and sniping of Sarajevo, during which thousands of civilians were killed and wounded.The announcement of his arraignment came after Mladic spent his first night in the United Nations detention unit in a seaside suburb of the Dutch capital. He was flown from Serbia on Tuesday afternoon and was taken under police escort into a isolation cell at dusk where he underwent a medical examination.Mladic, 69, will be asked to enter pleas on all charges relating to his alleged masterminding of atrocities throughout the 1992 – 1995 Bosnian war.The tribunal has appointed Judge Bakone Justice Moloto of South Africa, Judge Christoph Flügge from Germany and Judge Alphons Orie from the Netherlands to preside over the trial.If Mladic complies with the schedule, his arraignment on Friday could bring him into the same court building as his superior during the Bosnian war, Radovan Karadzic.

- Attacks On Food Companies' Front-of-Package Labels A Small Taste from A Supersized Agenda
For cause-oriented crusaders in and outside of government, speech has long been a favorite means to an end. Not a particularly effective means, but a means nonetheless. Policymakers can point to speech restrictions as proof that they are trying to “do something” about a perceived problem. As free enterprise advocates, we are most troubled by those who seek limits on commercial speech as a proxy for addressing supposedly negative consumer conduct or "disfavored" products. Commercial speech is quickly becoming the anointed fall guy in the national battle against obesity, a battle where, paradoxically, more information is one of consumers’ key weapons. But that information, according to activists, must come from the government or be tightly controlled by the government. Such nanny policy preferences, and a desire to advance broader agendas, are on display in activists’ opposition to voluntary efforts by the food industry to provide information on the front of food packages. _NULL_

- Journalism in the Gulf is losing its appeal | Hussain Ahmad
Indian journalists have long formed the backbone of the media in the Gulf but it's a decreasingly rewarding career moveRecently a friend of mine who wanted to start a magazine in a Gulf country asked a prominent journalist in India to look for an editor to work with him. My friend wanted someone with modest experience and the salary offered was decent. After two months came the reply: the search in India had turned up nothing and, more surprisingly, many young journalists who were contacted didn't even bother to get the details of the offer.This is not unusual. Across the Gulf, an increasing number of newspapers and other publications are finding it difficult to recruit journalists from India, and some have to contend with a depleting staff. Also, many Indians who joined the Gulf media recently have returned home.This development marks a seismic change in the short history of English journalism in the Gulf. For decades, Indians have formed the backbone of the region's English-language press and currently constitute around 70% of its journalists.So why is the Gulf losing its allure for Indian journalists? First, India is witnessing a media boom, which has resulted in an unprecedented surge in salaries. Television channels are proliferating, newspapers are on an expansion spree and new players are entering the market – all of which have opened up an Eldorado of opportunities for local journalists. At the same time in the Gulf, salaries haven't kept pace with galloping inflation due to the availability of cheap labour from a number of countries.Secondly, journalism in the Gulf is not held in high esteem by media professionals in India, and Gulf experience adds no value to one's CV. Those who have had a long stint in the region admit it has been a drain on their creativity インドのジャーナリストが長い湾のメディアのバックボーンを形成しているが、それは湾岸の国で雑誌を起動したい私のmoveRecently友人がエディタ彼と一緒に動作するために見てインドの著名なジャーナリストを求めた漸減やりがいのある仕事です

- Italy unveils government of technocrats
Italy's new prime minister, Mario Monti, confirms he will take on task of governing Eurozone's most indebted nationThe former European commissioner, Mario Monti, has unveiled Italy's new government and told Italy's president, Giorgio Napolitano, he was ready to test its support in parliament.Monti, a distinguished liberal economist, kept for himself the finance ministry. He handed the industry and infrastructure portfolios to Corrado Passera, the CEO of Italy's biggest retail bank, Intesa Sanpaolo.The dominant note in the list Monti read out was the weight of academics, who will occupy more than a third of the seats in cabinet. Three of the ministers in his bigger-than-expected cabinet were women, and two were appointed to top jobs: Anna Maria Cancellieri as interior minister and Paola Severino as justice minister.The new prime minister, Monti, confirmed he would take on the unenviable task of governing the eurozone's most indebted nation after two days of intense consultations during which Italy's borrowing costs soared to unsustainable levels.The uncertainties surrounding the formation of the new government were maintained to the end by a much longer than expected two-and-a-half hour meeting between the incoming prime minister and the president.The names on the list of his ministers — most of them unknown to members of the Italian public — showed that Monti had failed in his attempt to involve party representatives in his government. His government was made up exclusively of non-aligned technocrats.But the economics professor-turned-eurocrat managed to stave off — at least temporarily – demands from the outgoing prime minister, Silvio Berlusconi, and his party, for the government to have a limited programme and a fixed lifespan.

- Radovan Karadzic cleared of one genocide charge in The Hague
Judges at war crimes tribunal refuse to dismiss 10 other charges against former Bosnian Serb leaderThe Yugoslav war crimes tribunal has acquitted former Bosnian Serb leader Radovan Karadzic of one of the two genocide charges he faces at the halfway stage of his long-running trial.Judges say prosecutors did not present enough evidence to support the genocide count covering mass killings, expulsions and persecution by Serb forces of Muslims and Croats from Bosnian towns early in the 1992-95 war.However judges refused on Thursday to dismiss 10 more charges, including a genocide count covering Karadzic's alleged involvement in the 1995 Srebrenica massacre of 8,000 Muslim men.His trial will continue.The UN court's rules allow suspects to seek acquittal after prosecutors wrap up their case.Earlier this month Karadzic asked judges to dismiss all 11 counts against him, saying prosecutors had failed to prove them.Radovan KaradzicSerbiaSrebrenica massacreEuropeBosnia and HerzegovinaWar crimesInternational criminal tribunal for the former Yugoslaviaguardian.co.uk © 2012 Guardian News and Media Limited or its affiliated companies.

President tours western states with series of measures in a bid to put pressure on Congress to pass $447bn jobs billBarack Obama is to announce over the coming weeks a series of measures that will bypass Congress in an effort to kickstart the economy, create new jobs and seize the political initiative.Obama announced a new move to help the struggling housing market during a visit to Nevada, one of the worst-hit states in the country, with unemployment around 13%.The White House communications director, Dan Pffeifer told reporters during a conference call that Obama's three-day trip to the west – which will also take in California and Colorado – will highlight moves that the White House can take on its own, without Congress.The new campaign, dubbed by the White House 'We Can't Wait', is aimed at putting pressure on Congress, in particular congressional Republicans, to pass all or part of Obama's $447bn bill aimed at creating new jobs.Pffeifer said that while the White House can embark on various initiatives through executive orders, these are not a substitute for Congress passing the American Jobs Act.Unemployment, which is stuck at 9%, is likely to be the pivotal issue in the 2012 White House campaign. Republicans are opposing Obama's jobs legislation and are intent on blocking any increases in spending, citing the failure of the previous economic stimulus plan to make a signficant dent in the unemployment figures.The housing initiative, aimed at helping people unable to refinance because their mortgages are worth less than their homes, is to be followed on Wednesday with an announcement by Obama in Colorado to help students repay loans.Further initiatives are to be announced in the coming weeks.Obama is trying to make the next election a choice between his jobs plan an _NULL_

- Mitt Romney's Santorum setback is a big win for Barack Obama | Michael Cohen
Rick Santorum's caucus and primary wins have brutally exposed Romney's weakness as the GOP's unloved nominee apparentThere's a regular joke that has been employed after pretty much every single Republican debate and practically every Republican primary and caucus this election cycle: tonight's big winner was … Barack Obama. It is perhaps the most cutting and yet appropriate critique of the GOP nomination fight. The more America sees of the prospective Republican candidates and the longer this race goes on, the more four years of Barack Obama doesn't seem like such a bad thing.Rarely has Obama's advantage been more obvious than after the past few days – and, in particular, after Tuesday night's stunning and wholly unexpected defeat for presumptive GOP frontrunner, Mitt Romney. Romney didn't just lose to Rick Santorum – he got destroyed. In Missouri, he trailed Santorum by 30 points; in Minnesota, he finished third, behind Ron Paul, with a paltry 16% of the vote (in a state he won handily in 2008); in Colorado, another state he won in 200, with 60% of the vote, Romney took just 34% to Santorum's 40.2%. Now, granted Romney didn't put up much of a fight in either Minnesota or Missouri – and the Missouri vote was purely a beauty contest with no actual delegates at stake. But in Colorado, he devoted significant time and resources and led in pre-election polls, but still lost. This was as bad a night as a frontrunner has had in a primary race, maybe ever. Just one week ago, after Romney's convincing win in the Nevada caucus, the former Massachusetts governor appeared to have the political wind at his back. But in just a matter of days, his brief momentum has been completely upended and the creeping doubts about his candidacy, which he appeared to have silenced, have loudly ret null, responseDetails: Suspected Terms of Service Abuse.

- Why Michigan matters more than Maine in the GOP race | Harry J Enten
Rick Santorum's populist message is finding favour in Michigan. If he beats Mitt Romney, the delegate arithmetic tilts decisivelyMitt Romney received much-needed good press by winning the Maine caucuses' straw poll on Saturday. The Maine vote, which incidentally has no direct relationship to delegate selection, was one of the few contests this season where most analysts were unsure of who was going to win. Romney was expected to do well because he was governor in next-door Massachusetts, but Ron Paul had worked the state hard and hoped to appeal to the state's libertarian spirit. In the end, Romney slid in by 39% to Paul's 36%, with Rick Santorum and Newt Gingrich not even close.There are very few lessons to learn from Maine. A ridiculously small number of people (just over 5,000) voted in the straw poll, which makes you wonder why the media made any kind of deal out of the contest. The state's demography makes Maine highly idiosyncratic in comparison to the rest of the country. The only state similar to Maine is New Hampshire, which has already voted. In both states, Romney did better in the more highly populated areas closest to Massachusetts; Romney tended to do worse in rural areas. The difference in Romney's vote percentage in the two states was only 0.07 of a point.Maine's results do follow a pattern in a more important way. In every state Romney won in 2008 that has voted in 2012, he has received a lower percentage of the vote. Romney won Nevada and Maine by a slimmer margin than he did four years ago, and he lost Colorado and Minnesota. Why? Romney's coalition is far different this time compared to last. In 2008, he was the conservative alternative to John McCain. He had the backing of more conservative Republicans.

- Super Tuesday: likely scenarios and implications for the GOP race
Ten states will vote for a Republican presidential nominee this week. Here's what could be at stake for each of the candidatesMitt Romney Could emerge as clear favourite to win the Republican presidential nomination. Polls suggest he will easily win Virginia, Massachusetts, Vermont and Idaho, four out of the 10 Super Tuesday states. But he has to do better than that and take Ohio – one of the biggest Super Tuesday states and where the fight is directly between him and his nearest rival, Rick Santorum. A bonus would be to take one of the southern states, such as Tennessee.Although mathematically it would still be possible for one of his rivals to win the nomination if he takes Ohio, in reality Romney would be uncatchable. He would still have to go through the motions of fighting other states, but it would no longer be a question of if he becomes the Republican nominee, but when.If he loses Ohio, it is a different scenario: sniping would continue within the Republican party over whether he is a credible challenger to Barack Obama and whether the party should be looking for an alternative to join the race, even at this late stage. Rick SantorumIt's all or nothing for Santorum in Ohio. Since his surprise wins in Minnesota, Colorado and Missouri last month, he has lost Maine, Arizona, Michigan and Washington to Romney. Polls suggest he will win Oklahoma, has a slight lead in Tennessee and is in a dead heat in Ohio. Winning Oklahoma and Tennessee is not good enough. He has to win Ohio to be able to claim he is a serious alternative to Romney. Failure to win Ohio means his challenge would be effectively over. If he wins, the nomination race would be set to drag on to the end, with Utah, in June.Newt GingrichGingrich has faded from the race since his win in South Carolina in Ja null, responseDetails: Suspected Terms of Service Abuse.

- Earth exploration: the thrill of the drill | Editorial
The Mohorovicic discontinuity is a strange region, and could hardly be more important to usThe paradox of planet Earth is that almost all of it is unknown. The European Space Agency has just underlined this with the most accurate gravimetric satellite map so far of a universal feature called the Mohorovicic discontinuity. This strange region – the Moho for short – is a kind of basement floor, 70km or so below the Himalayas, a trifling 10km or so below the ocean floor. It marks the boundary between the brittle crust of the continents and seabed, and the dense and very different mantle that makes up 68% of the planet. It could hardly be more important to us.Nobody knew of its existence until 1909, when a Croatian seismologist called Andrija Mohorovicic noticed that earthquake waves accelerated as they reached a certain depth. It was the first evidence that the Earth had a crust, above a mantle that extended for nearly 3,000km to the planet's metal core. The mantle is an agency in the steady making of the living world. Through submarine volcanic vents along the mid-ocean ridge, it delivers fresh basalt to resurface the planet's oceans every 200m years, and to drive the moving pavements on which the continents ride at a few centimetres a year, occasionally colliding to throw up features such as the Alps and the Tibetan plateau. These same forces built the Andes and the Rockies, and power the volcanoes that yearly discharge massive quantities of new water, gas and minerals to the biosphere. Earthquakes, too, are a reminder that the mantle is active, and determined to go on pushing us around.

- United States as a global power: new world disorder | Editorial
The US is struggling with a paradox: while its military power retains global reach, its role as world leader is gradually endingThe time has long since past when it became fashionable to talk about a new world order. The collapse of the Soviet Union provided an opportunity to fashion one. But instead of using that opportunity to create a new security architecture in Europe, Nato expanded eastwards as the military anchor for democracy promotion. Not content to have seen off one global military competitor in the Soviet Union, the western military industrial complex and the think-tanks they funded scurried around for a worthy replacement. When 11 September happened, they thought they were in business again. For a brief moment, al-Qaida seemed to fulfil some of the characteristics of communism: it could pop up anywhere in the world; it was an existential enemy, driven ideologically and uncontainable through negotiation; and it was potentially voluminous. Neither the doctrines of the pre-emptive strike, nor attacking a foreign country abroad to ensure security at home, were new. Swap the domino theory of the Vietnam era for the crescent of crisis of the Bush and Obama eras, and you had the same formula for a foe that hopscotched across the globe.But here's the curious thing. Al-Qaida failed, not by being bombed out of the tribal areas of Pakistan or by losing its video-hugging leader. It failed as an ideological alternative, in its own terms and for its own people. It failed in Egypt, the country that mattered most to its chief thinker, the Egyptian-born doctor Ayman al-Zawahiri.

- Climate change is a matter of justice | Desmond Tutu and Mary Robinson
The rich countries caused the problem, but it is the world's poor who suffer. The Durban climate talks must right this wrongBefore the Copenhagen climate change summit two years ago, the two of us sat together in Cape Town to listen to five African farmers from different countries – four of whom were women – tell us how climate change was undermining their livelihoods. Each explained how floods and drought, and the lack of regular seasons to sow and reap, were outside their normal experience. Their fears are shared by subsistence farmers and indigenous people worldwide – the people who are bearing the brunt of climate shocks, even though they played no part in causing them.Now, two years later, we are in Durban, where South Africa is hosting this year's climate change conference, COP17, and the situation for poor people in Africa and elsewhere has deteriorated even further. In its latest report, the United Nations Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change concludes that it is virtually certain that, in global terms, hot days have become hotter and occur more often; indeed, they have increased in frequency by a factor of 10 in most regions of the world.Moreover, the brutal paradox of climate change is that heavy precipitation is occurring more often as well, increasing the risk of flooding. Since 2003, east Africa has had the eight warmest years on record which is no doubt contributing to the severe famine that now afflicts 13 million people in the Horn of Africa.These are the consequences that a mere 1C of warming above pre-industrial levels have wrought. The UN Environment Programme's recently published report, Bridging the Emissions Gap, shows that over the course of this century, warming will likely rise to 4C unless we take stronger action to cut emissions.

- In praise of ... Dustin Hoffman | Editorial
The star saved a jogger in Hyde Park who had collapsed with heart problemsHere is the paradox: Dustin Hoffman makes his name playing anti-heroes (think Ratso Rizzo in Midnight Cowboy, or David Sumner in Straw Dogs), yet this week's reports that he saved a jogger's life are immediately convincing. The story goes that the Marathon Man star was walking in Hyde Park last month when a jogger collapsed with heart problems. Hoffman called an ambulance and waited with the stricken 27-year-old until paramedics came and he was out of immediate danger. All this chimes with the way Hoffman plays his parts: they're generally a bit scrappy and more accustomed to losing than winning. But it's also the actor himself: a Democrat activist, and willing to slog it out on stage as well as appear in front of the camera. Yet despite his credentials as a Serious Actor, he is not naturally pompous: again, that detail about the paramedics mistakenly whisking away his iPod rings true.

Yoshihiko Noda's first task he faces is to seize control of his party and his governmentThe man who will today become prime minister of the world's third largest economy compared himself yesterday to the dojo loach – an eel-like creature which scavenges in the mud for snails and leftovers. Yoshihiko Noda's self-depreciation was rhetorical but the quantity of muck he faces is real enough. He inherits a legacy that was enough to finish off five predecessors in as many years, and the list of problems only seems to grow as one failed leader hands over to the next. Mr Noda inherits a nuclear crisis, a north-eastern coastal area devastated by the tsunami, tens of thousands of people yet to be permanently rehoused, an economy in recession staggering under the weight of its public debt, soaring health and social security costs, a divided parliament, a party in crisis and a country that lost faith in its leaders to govern.Japan's debt, at 210 % of GDP – the highest in the industrialised world – may paradoxically be the least of his problems. First, because it is sustainable, 95% of it being held by the Japanese themselves. That and a combination of low interest rates means that the treasury has a ready source of cash to finance its debt. Last week's downgrading by Moody's may not have the same effect there as it has had on less indebted economies and could actually help in the long run by lowering the value of the yen. Reducing the debt is a political calculation about which generation bears the greater burden of financing it. The current generation is by European standards lightly taxed. The VAT rate is one-fourth of the British one. Mr Noda, who served as finance minister in the previous administration, has some leeway to raise taxes.The political waters Mr Noda has to navigat _NULL_

Add to that the fact that 66 percent Americans are overweight from eating increasingly large portion sizes, and you have a dysfunctional feedback loop of waste, hunger and obesity. null, responseDetails: Suspected Terms of Service Abuse.

- Nasa releases images of entire universe – and we're over the moon
Image from Nasa is a mosaic of images covering the entire sky as observed by the Wide-field Infrared Survey ExplorerThe Fermi paradox, named for the physicist Enrico Fermi, goes something like this: given how big and old the universe apparently is, there is bound to be alien life out there somewhere. But given that the universe is so big and so old, if there's alien life out there, why haven't we earthlings encountered it yet? The experiment certainly has run its course for long enough now.The paradox may play in the mind of anyone who catches an astounding image released this week by Nasa of … the entire universe. The full-size image (and what warrants full size as much as an image of the universe?) is here.The image is actually a mosaic of the images covering the entire sky as observed by the Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer (Wise). Wies is an unmanned satellite carrying an infrared-sensitive telescope. As with a flat map of the Earth's surface, the right and left edges of this oval shape are the same location in the sky. The bright belt is the Milky Way galaxy. Nasa explains:The Milky Way is shaped like a disc and the solar system is located in that disc about two-thirds of the way out from the centre. So we see the Milky Way as a band running through the sky. As we look toward the centre of the Galaxy we are looking through more of the disc than when we are looking at large angles away from the centre, and you can see a noticeable increase in stars (coloured blue-green) toward the centre of the image … Residuals of the planets Saturn, Mars, and Jupiter are visible in this image as bright red spots off the plane of the galaxy at the 1.00, 2.00 and 7.00 positions, respectively.The Space Sciences Laboratory at Berkeley has helpfully labeled some of the heavenly bodi null, responseDetails: Suspected Terms of Service Abuse.

- John Donne, priest and poet, part 4: two kinds of judgment | Roz Kaveney
Donne reconciles the split in belief of a Last Judgment and the concept from Egypt of the dead standing before their judgeOne of the things that divides agnostics is the attitudes it is possible to have to the paradoxes and inconsistencies obviously demonstrable in the faith of believers. There is, I would maintain, simply little point in petty point scoring about this – a certain humility is always a good idea and most intelligent believers are just as aware of the problems as we are. Some, like John Donne, actively glory in them.Even before some American evangelists tried to resolve all the problems implicit in the concept of the Judgment by inventing the Rapture of all true believers as a quick fix that created even more problems than it resolved, Christians were torn between a belief in the Last Judgment when all sins would be known and punished in front of all of humanity, and the particular judgment, when the dead stand before their judge one at a time and know their fate. The latter, of course, is an idea that goes back to Egypt at least, where the heart was weighed against a feather; the Last Judgment an idea that has produced much of the west's finest art.Donne's seventh Holy Sonnet shares with Michaelangelo's painting and Verdi, Mozart and Berlioz settings of the Dies Irae that particular quality the Italians call terribilita. (It is probably damnable aesthetic snobbery to remark that the best that believers in the Rapture have managed to come up with is Tim LeHay's Left Behind books.)At the round earth's imagined corners blowYour trumpets, angels, and arise, ariseFrom death, you numberless infinitiesOf souls, and to your scattered bodies go ;All whom the flood did, and fire shall o'erthrow,All whom war, dea[r]th, age, agues, tyrannies,Despair, law, chance hat null, responseDetails: Suspected Terms of Service Abuse.

- Listeria outbreak from cantaloupe melons kills 13 people in US
Bacterium traced back to cantaloupes from Colorado farm is blamed for infections in 72 people across 18 statesA listeria outbreak linked to cantaloupes from Colorado has killed 13 people and infected 59 others, US health officials have said.The foodborne outbreak is the deadliest in the United States in more than a decade, exceeding the 2008-2009 salmonella outbreak from tainted peanuts that killed nine and infected more than 700 people in the United States, according to the Centres for Disease Control (CDC).So far 18 states had reported infections from one of the four strains of listeria involved, the CDC said.Of the 13 deaths, four were in New Mexico, two in Colorado, two in Texas and one each in Kansas, Maryland, Missouri, Nebraska and Oklahoma.The CDC said it had traced the outbreak to cantaloupes grown at Jensen Farms in Granada, Colorado, after finding Listeria monocytogenes in a sample from there.The company issued a recall on 14 September of its Rocky Ford-brand cantaloupes. The fruit was shipped to at least 17 states.The Food and Drug Administration has advised consumers to throw out the recalled melons.Listeria bacteria thrive in low temperatures. Outbreaks are usually associated with deli meats, unpasteurised cheeses and smoked refrigerated seafood.It is the deadliest listeria outbreak in the US since 1998 when contaminated hot dogs and deli meats killed 32 people and made 101 sick.People with weakened immune systems are most vulnerable to listeria. Pregnant women are 20 times more likely than healthy adults to get listeriosis and people with Aids are nearly 300 times more likely, the CDC says on its website.United StatesFood safetyguardian.co.uk © 2011 Guardian News and Media Limited or its affiliated companies.

- Why Israel keeps moving to the right | Carlo Strenger
Israel's growing distrust of the external world reflects a sense of existential threat and deep anxiety about its viabilityIsrael has been sliding into ever greater isolation in the few last years and this process has accelerated since Binyamin Netanyahu came to power in 2009. The international community is put off by his tactics: whenever the question of Israel's settlement policy comes up, he diverts attention to the Iranian nuclear threat. He argues that the world is facing a situation similar to 1938, and that its reaction is that of Neville Chamberlain, trying to appease Adolf Hitler. The world doesn't buy Netanyahu's rhetoric; his policy of stalling the peace process is perceived as a cynical ploy hiding Israel's true intent of holding on to the territories.This explanation fails to take into account that Netanyahu's rhetoric reflects a paradoxical state of mind of the Israeli electorate. Polls show that a consistent 70% majority of Israelis favouring the two-state solution. So why has Israel's electorate been moving consistently to the right in the last decade? Why is Netanyahu's popularity in Israel so high? And why is Israel's public less willing than ever to listen to criticism of Israeli policies?This development can be elucidated by a universal tendency of the human psyche uncovered by existential psychology in the last two decades. When under threat, particularly mortal threat, humans tend to defend psychologically by entrenching in their world views. These world views, which include identity narratives of righteousness, become ever more rigid under these circumstances, leading to growing distrust, hatred and negative prejudice against out-groups. Criticism of the in-group and its world view is rejected categorically.This theory predicts that Israel's move 外部世界のイスラエルの高まる不信はかつてないほどの分離にいくつかの最後の年で、このプロセスからネタニエフは2009年に権力を握った加速している摺動されている存在の脅威とそのviabilityIsraelについて深い不安感を反映されます
- Letter: We need progress on this Balkan question
Those of us deeply concerned about the military action in Kosovo and the international support for its independence are not surprised at reports of barricades and checkpoints between Serbian Kosovo and Serbia proper (Serbia's road to EU may be blocked as checkpoints return to the Balkans, 5 December).Serbia's past record, under previous regimes, is deeply flawed but in recent years it has wrestled with its demons and shown many signs of significant ideological change. The Serbian electorate voted Slobodan Milosevic out of office in October 2000. The new Serbian government secured the arrest of Radovan Karadzic in July 2008 and, admittedly belatedly, Ratko Mladic is now in custody.The remaining barrier to Serbia's progress towards EU membership is Kosovo. Serbia's entrenched attitude to its independence is not only a consequence of its emotional and historical attachment to Kosovo but also of the plight of Kosovo's Serbian minority, which has faced ethnic cleansing and discrimination by the Albanian majority. Independence for Kosovo has merely changed discrimination against Albanians for discrimination by Albanians. It is surely time for the international community to recognise the advances Serbia has made under its progressive president, Boris Tadic, and to help him to maintain the momentum, not least by tackling the unacceptable situation in Kosovo.Michael MeadowcroftLeedsSerbiaKosovoEuropean UnionEuropeAlbaniaguardian.co.uk © 2011 Guardian News and Media Limited or its affiliated companies.

- Birdwatch: Short-eared owl
It was Christmas Eve, an hour before dusk. The snow lay deep, and crisp, and fairly even, an unusual sight in Somerset, especially so early in the winter. When the bird flew past, it came as a surprise. Not just because it was a short-eared owl – the first I had seen in my new home county – but because most birds had already fled the cold weather, and the fields behind my home were devoid of life.Short-eared owls are big birds, not far off the size of a buzzard. Unlike most British owls they are diurnal, hunting over rough grassland for voles and other small mammals on broad, silent wings.But this one burst out of the hedge beside me in a flurry of feathers, then laboured low across the field. Against the brightness of the snow it looked darker than usual: a subtle melange of blacks, browns, greys and buffs, each shade blending into the others yet also managing, paradoxically, to stand out.Finally the owl reached the other side of the field, and sat momentarily on a broad hedgerow. As owls often do, it stared at me, its custard-yellow eyes visible even at a distance. Then it took off, gaining height as it flew up into the sky, until finally disappearing from view.This was almost a year ago, during last December's cold spell, when my parish – and indeed much of Britain – was transformed by snow into a Christmas card scene. Things are very different this year: after one of the mildest Novembers on record, it has turned colder, but so far there has been no prolonged freeze.Paradoxically, though, short-eared owls are ten-a-penny this year. Seven have been seen on the southern half of the Somerset levels, not far from the reintroduced flock of cranes; both bring a touch of continental Europe to this little corner of England. For the owls are visitors from the east, having cr null, responseDetails: Suspected Terms of Service Abuse. Please see responseStatus: 40

- Is Tax Court Decision End of Colorado Conservation Range War ?
If you sincerely want to have property that you own preserved in its current use, there is nothing closer to a free lunch than donating a conservation easement. You get a charitable contribution for the value of the easement and your property taxes might be lower in the future. Of course, if, in the future, you decided that you would rather have the money from selling the property to Wal-mart rather than a perpetual cow pasture, the lunch will turn out to have been expensive. So it would be nice to have an out. Of course, that would defeat the purpose of allowing the deduction. That is what the case of Kayln M. Carpenter, et al. v.

Nalgae moved into Hainan province in southern China on Tuesday, bringing 55mph winds and torrential rain. Elsewhere in south-east Asia, the unusually severe monsoon floods continue to be a problem over parts of Cambodia, Laos, Vietnam and Thailand. The floods on Vietnam's Mekong delta have been the worst for a decade.Across the US, heavy thunderstorms brought flash flooding to parts of Boston last Tuesday, with 139mm of rain reported in Swampscott and 104mm in Peabody. In the south-western Colorado Mountains, the first major snowfall of the season last Thursday and Friday brought around 18cm of snow. In the eastern Pacific, tropical storm Irwin and hurricane Jova formed late last week. Both systems threaten to make landfall on the western coast of Mexico during this week.A persistent high pressure system across central parts of Europe led to poor air quality in Milan, Italy last week. A combination of high daytime temperatures and light winds brought about a build up of fine particulates. Following 12 consecutive days where the particulates were above the legal limit, an anti-smog by-law was passed by the mayor of Milan, resulting in a ban of high-polluting vehicles within the city.WeatherNatural disasters and extreme weatherPollutionguardian.co.uk © 2011 Guardian News and Media Limited or its affiliated companies.

- Mike Kelley: LA baroque
Kelley's untimely death reminds me that his strange, fresh, punk-personal work made him defiantly an artist of Los AngelesMike Kelley's last exhibition in London was called Exploded Fortress of Solitude. At its heart was a darkly crystalline cave, a grotto of synthetic materials. Inside it, props from a fantasy film (the title was a reference to Superman's secret hideout at the North Pole) seemed to offer a secret that remained elusive. Other exhibits had the same feel of tacky science fiction and mythology, from fragments of a shattered Greek colossal statue to a film of piratical Sadeian shenanigans.Every work of art I saw by Kelley was fresh, strange, and intensely personal. The touch of the artist is what post-conceptual art is supposed to lack – and sometimes does. But Kelley always seemed to be doing something he needed to do and, more enigmatically, saying something he needed to say.His death at the age of 57 is all the sadder for seeming, from early reports, to be self-inflicted. Here was one of the most celebrated artists of our time, represented by one of the most powerful galleries and widely feted for his insouciant originality. But friends have reported deep despair or depression.Could you perceive that in his last British show? There was certainly dissipation and consuming irony and macabre humour. But that went with the territory. Kelley was not just an artist; he was a Los Angeles artist, one of the distinctive, mordant voices who made this sprawling west coast city famous – in some circles anyway – for contemporary art as well as films, music, and driving.Along with Paul McCarthy, with whom he sometimes collaborated, Kelley drew attention to the defiantly counter-cultural Los Angeles art scene.

The paradox of Thanksgiving in this land of immigrants is the way it reunites us – our families fractured by painful absencesMy family celebrated Thanksgiving much like other families. Well, sort of. We ate turkey and mashed potatoes – with a side of Spanish rice and tamales. We watched A Charlie Brown Thanksgiving, after dancing to cumbias and salsa. My cousins and I played Pogs on the floor, while our parents poured steaming cups of rum and punch. I don't remember a time without Thanksgiving. By the time I was born, in Los Angeles, this American holiday had become a tradition for my extended Mexican immigrant family. Just like other families, for us, Thanksgiving was a time to break bread (or pan dulce) and simply be together. Over time and with age, the holiday became not only about celebrating family, but also recognising its absence. For me, Thanksgiving marked the absence of my father, who was deported to Mexico when I was in high school. The empty seat at the dinner table is a reality in most American households, whether that absence is the result of distance, unresolved drama or the inevitable death in the family. This absence in immigrant families is all the more present this season, when the country's collective memory ignores the immigrant narrative inherent to its founding and intrinsic to this holiday. My celebration of Thanksgiving evolved when I embarked on my own immigration journey of sorts – from Los Angeles to Yale University. Seriously, it's that different. Over Thanksgiving break, I was welcomed into the homes of friends with strange assortments of food and relatives. One year, I ate turkey and lasagna in New Jersey with the Cammarata family.

- William Sleator obituary
Science-fiction author who used dystopian settings to tackle social issuesThe American science-fiction author William Sleator, who has died unexpectedly aged 66, wrote novels for children and young adults that varied between gross-out funny and deep melancholy. He had a serious appreciation for science and a keen, somewhat cynical, interest in family dynamics. Working not just in science fiction, but also in fantasy and horror, he often used dystopian settings to tackle important social issues. He frequently predicated his tales upon unusual scientific phenomena, although his work was best known for its headlong plotting and oddball characters, including some very eccentric aliens.Sleator's first publication of note was The Angry Moon (1970), a picture book based on a legend of the Tlinglit people in the Pacific northwest of the US. The Angry Moon, which was illustrated by Blair Lent, was chosen as a Caldecott honour book by the Association for Library Service to Children, but Sleator soon turned to longer fiction.House of Stairs (1974), one of the first great dystopian novels for young adults, concerns a group of deeply troubled orphans who awake to find themselves imprisoned in a huge structure based on the famous MC Escher print of the same name, which consists of nothing but staircases that they must constantly climb up and down in search of food. Eventually they discover that they are part of a secret government psychological conditioning program and that, rather than being expected to work together, they are being trained to treat each other with cruelty. The Young Adult Library Services Association named House of Stairs as one of its 100 best books for young adults.Sleator's The Green Futures of Tycho (1981) plays with time-travel paradoxes in a startling and cre 突然66歳が死亡している社会issuesTheアメリカのSF小説家ウィリアムSleatorを、、取。。u200b。。u200bり組むために陰鬱な設定を使用するSF小説家は、総アウト面白いと深い哀愁の間で変化、小児および若年成人のための小説を書いた

- Grand Canyon mining ban extended
The US government has extended a ban on the filing of new mining claims near the park in order to protect 400,000 hectaresThe US interior department has extended a temporary ban on the filing of new mining claims near the Grand Canyon with an eye toward protecting 400,000 hectares (1m acres) and giving the federal government more time to study the economic and environmental effects of mining.The department has been analysing whether to prohibit new mining claims near the park, or allow the mining industry to add to the thousands of claims already staked in the area. A temporary ban enacted in July 2009 was set to expire next month but will now last until December.The interior secretary, Ken Salazar, visited the Grand Canyon and drew on its history to urge patience, caution and humility in moving forward with what has been a controversial process.The withdrawal of the full 400,000 hectares for 20 years will be identified as the department's preferred alternative when the analysis is completed later this year, Salazar said. The mining industry, along with Govener Jan Brewer and some Republican members of Congress quickly blasted Salazar's decision as detrimental to the state's economy and the country's energy independence.Conservationists hailed the announcement as crucial to protecting the area's natural and cultural resources. Ranchers had sent miniature cowboy hats to Salazar, a rancher himself and former natural resources chief in Colorado, urging a more permanent withdrawal for what mining opponents have said was a natural treasure under threat.The temporary ban was meant to slow a flurry of new uranium mining operations planned near the Grand Canyon. At least 3,350 active mining claims exist for all types of hard-rock exploration within the area.Most of the claims f _NULL_

- South Park's Mormon musical should come to the West End | Phelim O'Neill
Messrs Parker and Stone may love lampooning the religious, but their satire is always respectful – at least to things made in heaven rather than earthA stage musical about Mormon missionaries written by the creators of South Park sounds, at first, like something designed with the express purpose of causing controversy. Like many of the projects undertaken by Trey Parker and Matt Stone, however, it sounds far more scandalous than it actually is – and is actually very respectful to religious beliefs. They may take shots at how beliefs are presented by believers, or at how non-believers have a hard time accepting any faith's more outlandish concepts, but fundamental tenets remain unscathed by their piercing wit. They'll mock anything earthly, in other words, but the spiritual they tend to leave well alone. For, as the Monty Python team realised when writing Life of Brian, despite the many faults of his many followers Jesus (who does appear in the new musical) is basically one of the good guys.With rumours that the show, which has been winning awards on Broadway, is set to come to the West End, what should we expect? Religion and musicals have long been integral parts of Parker and Stone's comedy, even since their first major project together: the zero-budget student movie Cannibal! The Musical, which included Mormon travellers in its spoofery. Given that they were raised and schooled in Colorado – not far from Utah, where approximately 60% of the population are followers of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints – Mormonism is not a religion they merely viewed from afar. Their next feature film, the sporadically hilarious Orgazmo, featured Parker as a martial-arts expert Mormon missionary who ends up becoming the titular porn star (he's trying to raise money to g 各氏パーカーとストーンは、宗教を風。愛し、their風刺は常に尊重して - ア。。u200b。。u200bーサstageではなく、神の思し召しによるものサウスパークのクリエイターによって書かれたモルモン教の宣教師の音楽少なくとも最初は、サウンドExpressを使用して設計されたようなもの論争を引き起こすの目的
- Letters: Blurred boundaries of science and religion
In reporting that Martin Rees had won this year's Templeton prize (From big bang to big bucks, 7 April), Ian Sample tells us more about the critics of the John Templeton Foundation than the foundation itself or its current winner. The foundation blurs the boundary between science and religion, the implication being that this is dangerous or madness. Eminent scientists compare religion to homeopathy and any holder of the prize must suffer from intellectual doublethink. The most crucial point in the entire article was buried deep and was made only once: scientists, even the most eminent, read little philosophy or theology and understand even less.If I want to know what it is to be a human being, I would ask a novelist, not a biologist. We are more than the tools of science can measure: science tells us that water is H2O but does not tell us it is wet. Science only looks outwards, not inwards. At its best, religion is rational, experiential and philosophically and theologically self-critical. It relies heavily on metaphor and paradox and is no less rigorous than science. The key problem for many scientists is that they bring an atheistic philosophy to their science and make claims which their experiments and theories cannot substantiate: interpretation is brought by the thinker, not by the physical universe itself.Scott McKennaEdinburgh• Surely Sir Martin Rees has already forfeited his scientific credentials by accepting a knighthood and royal assignment as astronomer royal? No rationally organised society should allow the continued existence of the monarchy, and no one asserting a scientific worldview should legitimate it by accepting its rewards.Dr Gordon DownieCardiffMartin ReesReligionScience prizesPeople in scienceguardian.co.uk © Guardian News & Media Limit マーティンリース（つまり、大金をビッグバンから4月7日）を今年のテンプルトン賞を受賞したことの報告では、イアンのサンプルは、基礎自体またはその現在の勝者よりもジョンテンプルトン財団の批判の詳細について教えてくれる

- Barack Obama in Asia: All troubled on the eastern front | Editorial
Just three days after getting the worst drubbing of his career, Barack Obama flew off for a 10-day spin around AsiaIt is, to say the least, an odd time to be taking the longest trip away from the Oval Office of his presidency. Just three days after getting the worst drubbing of his career, Barack Obama flew off for a 10-day spin around Asia that encompasses India, Indonesia, Japan and South Korea. There is a G20 summit thrown in, and Obama is bringing 200 business leaders, so he can argue that the trip is all about drumming up orders for US jobs. Indian investment alone accounts for 75,000 of those. Even so, he is either one cool dude or he has still not got the message. No one is quite sure which.Under the constitution, the president both has the initiative and plays the predominant role in foreign policy. The international stage is the only one in which he can be relatively free of a Republican veto. But this freedom is relative. A pro-Israeli Cuban-American is taking over the chairmanship of the house foreign affairs committee, which will surely cheer Israel's prime minister, Binyamin Netanyahu. There could be problems ahead in the Senate over an important treaty which the president has already signed with Russia, the strategic arms reduction treaty. Some of the more cold-war minded Republicans could put an oar in here too, claiming the treaty limits anti-missile deployments. Perhaps paradoxically, Mr Obama needs to be at home just to safeguard his foreign agenda.But the fact that Mr Obama and David Cameron will be in India and China respectively next week with posses of businessmen in tow speaks volumes about who needs whom in today's world. US trade with India is more balanced than it is with China, even though it is only a fraction of it.

- Spain's lie still hurts Western Sahara | Miguel-Anxo Murado
The outrage in Spain at Zapatero's failure to condemn the violent clampdown in Western Sahara reflects a historical guiltThe Spanish president, José Luis Rodríguez Zapatero, is having a tough time. No, on this occasion it is not the economy. Actually, it's something far removed from our everyday concerns; it couldn't be more far removed, in fact: the desert. Protests in the Morocco-occupied (and former Spanish colony) Western Sahara have been met with a violent clampdown, but the Spanish government has so far resisted calls to issue a condemnation. The government says it knows little of what's going on there, and that's true, since Morocco is detaining and expelling foreign journalists from the area. The government keeps saying it has to consider Spain's higher interest, but the Spanish public is outraged. To an outside observer, this level of anger over a seemingly faraway land may seem excessive. And it is, in a way. The Western Sahara is one of Spain's secret passions.It all began with a lie. It was precisely 35 years ago, in November 1975. Back then Morocco pre-empted the referendum that should have led to an independent Western Sahara, in keeping with UN resolutions. The Sahrawi, whose flag sports the same colours as the Palestinians, counted on Spain's protection. But in a clever move, King Hassan II of Morocco sent over the militarised border hundreds of thousands of unarmed civilians (the green march) to force Spain either to back down or cause a massacre. Gandhi's book annotated by Milosevic. The timing was perfect: Spain's dictator, General Franco, was terminally ill, only days away from his death. In his last cabinet meeting, he had electrodes attached to his chest and a team of doctors was monitoring his heart from a nearby room.

- Stars and stripes in our eyes: what's so special about the American way?
America's cultural influence is stronger than ever – as British excitement at the Oscar success of The King's Speech showsIt is hard to read a newspaper or newspaper site nowadays without being told yet more details about the downfall of America. From Wikileaks to the Obama administration's attempts to find the right approach to revolution in the Middle East, it seems that every event in this fast-moving century can be seen as yet more proof of the failure of American power. But are rumours of US decline exaggerated? A look at the cultural sphere suggests the superpower's obituarists may be getting ahead of themselves.This week saw – according to breathless promoters of Britishness – a great cultural triumph for the land of tea and biscuits. Yes, the Oscars were invaded by our directors, our actors and our royal history, courtesy of the success of The King's Speech. But wait ... Why are we so chuffed? Because we got some recognition from America! It was the popularity of the film there that made it famous, and it was the approval of Hollywood, USA that confirmed its glory.So we don't respect America any more? Phooey. We revere America, imitate America, lap up its inventions. The last time I looked, Apple was a US company. And as The King's Speech has proved, our little British culture never means more to us than when it gets a bit of acclaim in Big America. No wonder, for America becomes more culturally influential all the time.The best contemporary novelists – Philip Roth, Jonathan Franzen – are American. Lady Gaga is American. So is Eminem. The Wire and other HBO dramas are American.

- In this remote town in Mali, climate change takes on a sinister reality | Madeleine Bunting
The debate around Africa and aid will shift from charity and post-imperial responsibility to seeking environmental justiceTen years ago, I ended up on the mud flats of the Nile delta with a water engineer. He explained how everything we could see around us would be under water if sea levels rose as they are predicted to do – the nearby city of Alexandria is one of the most vulnerable to climate change in the world. It was just before a major conference on climate change, and the aim had been to find stories – and images – of global warming that got beyond the cliche of a melting ice cap. But as a journalist it was hard to bring this future to life; this sleepy bit of coastline hardly evoked the sense of urgency required to mobilise the international attention needed.This is the central paradox of climate change politics, argued the sociologist, Anthony Giddens, that electorates can't grasp the significance of climate change because it is too abstract, and not dramatic enough (they need catastrophe footage), and won't – until it's too late. By the time we are experiencing massive floods, freak weather, sea-level rises and higher temperatures, we will be well past the point of doing anything about it. He christened it Giddens paradox.Ten years on, the impact of climate change is frighteningly more concrete. In the remote town of Anakila in Mali, west Africa, I find what we were looking for in the Nile delta 10 years ago. Campaigners know the power of images to drive the message home, and that's why the aid agency Tearfund took me on a 1,000km journey from the capital, Bamako.Three hours after we left the paved road, we arrived at low mud houses clustered under large mango trees.

- In praise of … Ha-Joon Chang | Editorial
Where mainstream economic debate is often stiflingly narrow, Chang talks about 19th-century Germany, 21st-century China and many other points besidesOne downside of the conference season is that the debates between politicians, thinktankers and journalists are as broad as a postage stamp. A Martian arriving in Manchester this week could be forgiven for thinking that how to run an economy was simply about how or when or whether to cut the deficit. To him or her (or, indeed, it), we would recommend Ha-Joon Chang's latest book, 23 Things They Don't Tell You About Capitalism. Where mainstream economic debate is often stiflingly narrow, Chang talks about 19th-century Germany, 21st-century China and many other points besides. Where economics is dry, this Cambridge professor delights in paradox. And myth-busting – because what Chang does in 23 Things is take apart many of the assertions put forward by those who argue that economics is nothing more than letting markets rip. He asserts that there is no such thing as a free market (whatever Vince Cable might say) and that successful economies do not require economists. He does this with charm and a desire to see how things work in the real world. Chang's readers will recognise this style from Bad Samaritans and Kicking Away the Ladder, his earlier books on development economics. But 23 Things is an attempt at a more popular book, and it deserves both a wide audience and – with its discussion of industrial strategy and the relationship between state and markets – to be read by politicians hunting for new ideas.

- When cure is better than Prevention | Fuad Nahdi
The Prevent strategy has made us neither wiser nor safer. The government must learn to work with ordinary MuslimsFive years after the 7/7 London bombing we seem none the wiser – and not any safer, if you believe our intelligence services. The core PREVENT strategy adopted is in tatters – misunderstood, mistrusted and messy. Anti-terrorism initiatives remain pedantic, paradoxical and reactionary. The struggle for hearts and minds is in a stalemate – but in the global wired village our young and angry youth are increasingly vulnerable and at great risk.The anti-terrorism industry is now worth billions globally. Despite their being so many tanks there is really little that is dynamic, innovative or courageous thinking at the core. Hypotheses based on ignorance are heavily mixed with those fuelled by fear to produce an extremely unhealthy situation. What is needed now is not recrimination but a gutsy and robust retrospection.Security matters – like all other fundamental issues affecting our quality of life and existence – are a concern for all of us. A strategy based on an aggressive demonization of an entire community for the actions of a tiny minority was destined to be still-born. The majority of British Muslims loathed being lumped together and made to look like a fifth column of Al Qaeda rather than bona fide citizens of a country to which they are making so much of a contribution.The lager mentality that developed was further enhanced by irresponsible mixing of legal enforcement efforts with community capacity building. The uncoordinated and sometimes contradictory thinking at the top was soon reflected at the community level leading to haphazard, half-baked projects filled not with a united purpose but with jealousy, unhealthy competition and suspicions.Most amazing, 防止戦略は、私たちしたも賢くも安全です
- France is wrong on Islamic facemasks
This is one confrontation that will inevitably end badlySo they did it. The French parliament has voted overwhelmingly for a ban on Islamic facemasking, guaranteeing a collision course with those Muslims who consider themselves radically devout and want everyone to know it. All Muhammad said that could be linked to facemasking was that, in his later years, he preferred his own wives to talk to the rest of his court from behind a screen. So there can be no doubt that the practice is extreme, mulishly literal-minded and paradoxically flamboyant. The trouble is that its critics in France are now taking extreme, mulishly literal-minded and paradoxically flamboyant positions themselves. It's hard to see how this can end well.FranceIslamDeborah Orrguardian.co.uk © Guardian News & Media Limited 2010 | Use of this content is subject to our Terms & Conditions | More Feeds

- Albums of 2010, No 10: John Grant - Queen of Denmark
Largely unknown a year ago, the former Czars frontman surprised many with his weird and wired take on soft rockExclusive session: John Grant performs Where Dreams Go To DieLast year, John Grant was known to perhaps a handful of hipsters as the former frontman of the Czars, a band who enjoyed a measure of critical acclaim if not commercial success. Twelve months on, his name features in many 2010 roundups for an album that is one of the year's word-of-mouth triumphs. After the Czars imploded, Grant descended into booze, drugs, suicidal thoughts and self-loathing, but subsequently had the kind of epiphany that can follow such a crisis. The result is a scarred but revelatory album. Queen of Denmark recalls Dennis (brother of Brian) Wilson's 1977 masterpiece, Pacific Ocean Blue: it has a similar feel of gazing out on to something endless and darkly inviting. With Midlake as his backing band, Grant assembled a tapestry of flutes, piano, strings, eerie synths and gentle drums; almost a weird, wired take on 70s soft rock with some deliberate, ironic nods to Lynyrd Skynyrd and Dean Friedman. Marz and Where Dreams Go to Die take cocked glances at capitalist America while the perkier Jesus Hates Faggots pokes fun at redneck attitudes, which Grant was forced to endure as a gay child in a religious Colorado household. But the sucker punch arrived with the emotionally wringing ballads Queen of Denmark, Sigourney Weaver and Caramel, on which the 41-year-old croons like a latterday, acid-scarred Sinatra. Grant has written almost supernaturally beautiful hymns of love, despair, chaos and ultimate redemption.

My father, the Rev Alfred Willetts, who has died aged 94, and his wife, Phoebe, advanced the ordination of women. As rector and curate in Ancoats, Manchester, they organised the first priestly acts by women in the Church of England.In 1977, the Rev Alison Palmer from the US Episcopal church celebrated holy communion in their parish church. This act highlighted a paradox within the global Anglican communion – the Church of England was bound to recognise priests ordained in the US, but could not itself recognise women as priests. Phoebe's weakness from cancer gave them a sense of urgency, so Alfred and Phoebe took their rebellion further, holding a concelebration of communion in January 1978. She died seven weeks later. Alfred continued as a campaigner when the Movement for the Ordination of Women was formed in 1979, and participated in the first ordinations in 1994.He was born and raised in Old Hill, in the Black Country, and attended Halesowen grammar school, but did not complete his studies at Kings College London because of the second world war. A visit to the Imperial War Museum led Alfred to become a pacifist and, in 1940, he registered as a conscientious objector. In 1944-45, he worked for Save the Children, supplying relief in southern Italy.After the war, he proclaimed a gospel of peace as a Methodist lay preacher. In 1960, Phoebe served six months in jail for blocking the entrance to the Atomic Weapons Research Establishment at Foulness, Essex. From then on, Alfred was a pillar of support for local CND groups. He moved to the Church of England and became a priest in 1963, serving first in Cardiff, then in Blaengwynfi, Glamorgan, and then for 18 years in Ancoats.Alfred's continued vigour and commitment showed when, aged 79, he held a vigil for peac 94歳で死亡した私の父は、牧師アルフレッドウィレッツ、と彼の妻、フィービー、女性の聖。叙任を進んだ
- Christmas dangers for dogs
Piercing pine needles, broken baubles, poisonous chocolate – the festive season can be perilous for FidoI haven't read a survey I liked more since the one that said one in four British vets have treated a drunk dog. So anyway, how about this: 79% of dog owners get fake Christmas trees to avoid injury to their dogs. My mind filled with intoxicating images of labradors trying to do a wee against a real tree, knocking it over, breaking the window and being pelted with broken glass and maybe snow. In fact, the main problem is that they get pine needles stuck in their paws. So it's not dramatic, but it's not very nice, and you still have to go to the vet.The website that conducted the survey – dogsblog.com, which is very useful if you want to rehome a dog, or look at cute pictures of dogs – helpfully compiled the top-five festive dangers to dogs. In with a bullet at number one is chocolate, for the possible theobromine poisoning. Number two is antifreeze – I was just about to be more precise, but you don't need to know what's in it, all you need to know is that it's blue and you shouldn't drink it. Then pine needles, glass decorations and crowded kitchens.To this expert advice, I will add the top-five festive dog-dangers that I have observed: broken glass in gutters, dropped by drunken idiots probably wearing flashing deely boppers and thinking that's funny; drunken idiots in your own house, dropping things on your dog; dogs eating tinsel or silver foil, then having to expel them later (I'm not sure that this is dangerous, but it looks uncomfortable); dogs being dressed as Santa (it's humiliating; and also, unrealistic, because a reindeer would never obey a dog); and finally, dogs straightforwardly overeating.Poor mutts, they think Bonfire Night is bad, but yule is far more 松葉、壊れたつまらない、悪意に満ちたチョコレートを利用しています - お祭りシーズンは、私は、1つの4つの英国の獣医が酔って犬を扱っているもう一つから好きな調査を読んでいないFidoIに危険なことができます

- 9:00 pm thoughts, mine and yours | Michael Tomasky
I'm updating columns for editions of the print paper, but I thought I should check in with my regular crowd and see what you think.We appear to be headed toward around 50 in the House and seven or eight in the Senate. I guess it could be more. Hard to say yet. Watch Kentucky-6, Democrat Ben Chandler's district. Neck-and-neck, wasn't supposed to be. If the Republican challenger prevails there, it could mean a few more pick ups. It looks like the R's beat Rick Boucher in Virginia, and that's one the D's were counting on holding.In Florida, Republican Daniel Webster has clobbered Democratic incumbent Alan Grayson. Clobbered. This is one liberals need to pay attention to. Here's a guy the liberal blogosphere limned as a hero, and he got his clock cleaned.The exit polls had Reid-Angle neck-and-neck, at 47 apiece (there's a third candidate in the race, on the right). Also Illinois is reportedly neck-and-neck. In Colorado, Democrat Michael Bennet was a couple of points ahead of Ken Buck. If those flip toward the D's, it's not a bad night in the Senate at all, with loses as few as five. Joe Manchin already won in West Virginia. But five is unlikely. Seven, like I said.It's way too early to know a lot of things, but it's not too early to know one thing. Speaker Boehner. Probably the functional end of Nancy Pelosi's career. I guess that's two things, even if they amount to the same thing.Sound off.US midterm elections 2010Michael Tomaskyguardian.co.uk © Guardian News & Media Limited 2010 | Use of this content is subject to our Terms & Conditions | More Feeds

- Spain overtakes US with world's biggest solar power station
With the new La Florida plant, the nation's solar power production is now equivalent to output of a nuclear power stationSpain has opened the world's largest solar power station, meaning that it overtakes the US as the biggest solar generator in the world. The nation's total solar power production is now equivalent to the output of a nuclear power station.Spain is a world leader in renewable energies and has long been a producer of hydro-electricity (only China and the US have built more dams). It also has a highly developed wind power sector which, like solar power, has received generous government subsidies.The new La Florida solar plant takes Spain's solar output to 432MW, which compares with the US output of 422MW. The plant, at Alvarado, Badajoz, in the west of the country, is a parabolic trough. With this method of collecting solar energy, sunlight is reflected off a parabolic mirror on to a fluid-filled tube. The heated liquid is then used to heat steam to run the turbines. The mirror rotates during the day to follow the sun's movement. The solar farm covers 550,000 square metres (the size of around 77 football pitches) and produces 50MW of power.Protermosolar, the association that represents the solar energy sector, says that within a year another 600MW will have come on-stream and projects that by 2013 solar capacity will have reached 2,500MW.The northern, though thinly populated, region of Navarra is already producing 75% of its energy from a range of renewables, including wind, solar, hydro and biomass. Spain's windfarms now produce around 20,000MW of electricity and on one day in November they accounted for 53% of demand. Last year, solar energy met 2.8% of demand out a total of 12.9% for all renewables. In March, the government announced a plan to increase 新しいラフロリダ工場では、国の太陽光発電の生産量は現在、核力stationSpainの出力に相当ですが、それは世界最大の太陽光発電は、米国を追い抜くの意味世界最大級の太陽光発電所を開設しました
- Legal aid is a price worth paying | Katherine Craig
Awarding MPs legal aid is a paradoxical but necessary step in achieving an accountable societyNever have I heard quite so many people lamenting the unfairness of the legal aid system as when it transpired this week that public funding had been granted to the three Labour MPs charged with false accounting. Even those who have never shown the slightest interest in the topic have been whipped up into a fervour about the injustice of it all.It's natural to view the use of public money to defend such affluent and unpopular politicians as unfair. But, as Afua Hirsch reluctantly blogged yesterday, no matter how angry we are with MPs, the principle must never be shaken that those facing charges must be properly defended. And the best way of ensuring everyone gets a fair trial is to provide non-means-tested legal aid – then simply recoup public funds at the end of a trial from those who are convicted and could have afforded to pay themselves. This sensible and viable option is not widely publicised, perhaps because, as the government's attacks on legal aid have increased, so too have its efforts to portray its recipients as unworthy and sinister, its lawyers as devious and parasitic and its cost as unnecessarily burdensome. No wonder Cameron is rubbing his over-privileged hands in glee.But there is more to the legal aid debate than defending the unpopular. I don't practice criminal law, instead I predominantly act for bereaved families at inquests following deaths in police and prison custody. These are not your archetypal legal-aid clients and are often motivated by the need to find out why their loved one died – and, more importantly, the desire to ensure no other family has to suffer like they have. Without legal aid their simple search for truth would be virtually impossible 表。議員の法的援助が責任societyNeverを達成するために逆説的なが必要なステップ私は聞いたことがあるが、それほど多くの人々は、この1週間は、公的資金は3つの労働議員で起訴に付与されていた蒸散場合など法律扶助制度の不公平を嘆い。占めている

- Weak candidates will hurt Republican hopes in midterm elections | Richard Adams
By nominating more nuts than a sack of trail mix, the Republicans are making their task of winning much harderMeet the 2010 model of Republican politicians running for office in November's elections:• A candidate for governor who wants to see Barack Obama's birth certificate• The Tea Party-backed candidate who thinks a bicycle-sharing scheme is a United Nations plot for world government• A wannabe senator who made her fortune in professional wrestling• A religious fundamentalist who thinks waiters get paid too much in tipsIn what is shaping up to be a miserable election season for the Democratic party, there was a rare glimmer of sunlight last night from the results of primaries in several key races in Colorado, Minnesota, Connecticut and Georgia, thanks to Republican voters choosing flawed or erratic candidates as their nominees for the elections on November 2.With the national tide firmly against the Democrats, thanks to the grim economy and associated high unemployment, the Republicans are almost certain to take back control of the House of Representatives. But a weak field of candidates in otherwise winnable races may sabotage their hopes of regaining control of the Senate as well.On top of that, a weak slate of Republican candidates running for governor in several key states may come back to haunt the GOP: the post-2010 census congressional redistricting means that in many states governors are in a powerful position to tilt the playing field one way or another.Gaffe-prone candidates also bring another danger. With no presidential election to carry the focus, midterm elections at state level can be dominated by the travails of an inept nominee, who can drag down the party's hopes for winning other elections within the state. So, a numbskull candidate for governor ca トレイルミックスの袋よりナットを指名することにより、共和党は共和党の政治家事務所の11月の総選挙：バラクオバマの出生証明書はコーヒー

- Re-repairing Bosnia after Dayton | Morton Abramowitz and James Hooper
Europe must end its diplomatic indifference to Bosnia's need for reform if it is to prevent a breakdown in the fragile status quoBosnia's future is becoming increasingly uncertain. An ethnic veto has long made the central government ineffective and, most recently, Milorad Dodik, the leader of the Serb-controlled entity Republika Srpska, has responded to efforts at reform with a threat to hold a referendum on independence.Many consider secession unlikely, but Dodik's threat does heighten fears that today's fragile status quo could break down. While nobody expects the mass violence of the 1990s to recur, that does not justify diplomatic indifference and inaction.The Dayton Accords of 1995 ended Serb-instigated ethnic cleansing and established peace in Bosnia. But that agreement did not create a functional Bosnian central government with the capacity to undertake the reforms needed to meet the terms of accession to the European Union.To appease Bosnian Serbs led by Slobodan Milosevic (who died while on trial for war crimes), Radovan Karadzic (who remains on trial for war crimes) and Ratko Mladic (who was indicted for war crimes and is still on the run in Serbia), the west accepted the territorial division of Bosnia at the end of the war. This acceptance was manifested in a constitutional structure that gave the Bosnian Serb region quasi-independence and the power to obstruct the emergence of an effective central government in Sarajevo.The EU, having helped rescue Bosnia from its past by mortgaging its future, seems in no hurry to change the country's purgatory-like status. European leaders have allowed their most useful tool for preserving the peace and leveraging change – the once-respected office of the high representative – to be diminished to the point that many Bosnia それは、脆弱な状態quoBosniaの将来への破壊を防ぐために、ヨーロッパ改革のための、ボスニアの必要とする外交の無関心を終了する必要がますます不透明になっている

- How water raises the political temperature between countries
Water wars haven't started yet, but shortages certainly cause tensions between states to riseFifteen years ago Ismail Serageldin, an Egyptian who was vice-president of the World Bank, shook politicians by predicting that the wars of the 21st century would be fought not over oil or land, but water.So far he has been proved wrong, but escalating demand for water to grow food and provide drinking water for burgeoning urban populations has raised political tensions between many countries.In Asia, there are disagreements over the right to dam shared rivers. India and Pakistan are in semi-permanent dispute over hydro-power on the river Indus. China, Nepal, India and Bangladesh all spar over the rivers rising in the Himalayas and which flow through neighbouring countries, providing water for nearly 500 million people on the way.Tensions run high between Uzbekistan, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan and Tajikistan over the Amu Daria and Syr Daria rivers, as well as the severely depleted Aral Sea. Argentina and Uruguay have taken their dispute over the river Plate to the International Court of Justice in The Hague, while Mexico and the US argue over rights on the Rio Grande and Colorado.Last month, Baghdad demanded that Syria cease pumping water from the Iraqi portion of the Tigris. Elsewhere in the Middle East, Palestine and Israel, and Iraq and Iran, row over water supplies from the Shatt al-Arab waterway and Turkey's dams.In Africa, the Chobe, a tributary of the Zambezi, has caused tension between Botswana, Mozambique, Zambia and Zimbabwe, while there have been incidents between Mauritania and Senegal over control of the Senegal. Shares of the Niger, Volta and Zambezi are all disputed.According to the UN, there are more than 250 internationally shared rivers covering nearly half the tot 水戦争はまだ開始されているが、不足は確かにマイルイスメル、誰世界銀行の副社長であり、エジプト年前riseFifteenに、21世紀の戦争はしないで争われるだろうと予測して政治家を横に振った状態間の緊張を引き起こす石油や土地、しかしwater.Soはるかに彼は間違って、しかし、証明されている水のエスカレートの需要は、食品を成長し、都市人口の急成長のための飲料水を提供する多くcountries.In Asia間の政治的緊張が高まっている、そこにダムを右をめぐっては共有河川

- Can the healthcare bill boost Labour? | Bryan Gould
Barack Obama's healthcare bill shows the right wing's failure of imagination – a fact we should recognise in our own electionIn a 50-year involvement in politics, I have often found that friendship is perfectly possible with people of very different political views from my own. Over a 20-year period as a member of the House of Commons, I often found that some of the more stimulating and amusing companions came from the ranks of those whose political views I abominated. I have often puzzled over the fact that people who are so agreeable in personal terms can hold views about society and social issues that are so unattractive. People who are kind to animals, generous to their friends, supportive of family members who need support, exhibit a breathtaking and at time cruel lack of generosity, compassion and understanding when it comes to those who are a little more distant from them in social or cultural or ethnic terms.My explanation of this apparent paradox is that people who hold rightwing views (excluding those who are just plain nasty) often suffer from a failure of imagination. Their impulses are fine and generous when they relate to people who are recognisable and close to them – my own dear parents were a case in point. But they are unable to project those commendable responses to a wider range because they are simply unable to understand that society is made up of people who are just as dear to others as their own friends and family are to them.These thoughts were prompted all over again by reports of the debate over Barack Obama's healthcare bill. For those fortunate souls who have had the good luck to live in countries (which make up the bulk of what we might have once called the civilised world) that see the provision of healthcare to all their citizens as a bas バラクオバマ氏の医療法案は、私は頻繁には友情を完全に非常に異なる政治的見解の人々と自分から可能であることが分ったの想像力の右翼の失敗 - 私たち自身のelectionIn 50を認識する必要があります実際の政治年間の関与を示しています

- Scratching the surface of America | Sasha Abramsky
Hiking in the Grand Canyon, you can leave the political realities of the US behind – and they're easier to navigate on your returnFrom Plateau Point, seven miles hard walk from the top of the Grand Canyon, there's a sheer drop, thousands of feet, to the muddy brown Colorado River below. Craggy cliffs on the other side of the river soar upwards, in layers, like a demonic wedding cake, a hallucination, a dream. Behind Plateau Point, the path snakes back through a flatlands of prickly-pear cactus, into the Indian Gardens oasis, and then up, in switchbacks, the ascending cliffs, the path getting ever-steeper, in early April ever-more snow-covered, as it rises. High, high above, invisible from Plateau Point, the fierce path ends and the cacophony of Grand Canyon Village begins.Only 5% of visitors, according to park rangers, venture anywhere down the canyon trails; iconic paths like Bright Angel and Kaibab. A far smaller percentage go down to Plateau Point, or, beyond that, to the river itself, its frigid waters fed by snow melt.At the top of the canyon, it's all noise and chaos; bus-loads of tourists pulling up to the rim just long enough to snap a few photos and move on. It's easy to get contemptuous of the tourism culture up at the Village. It's overly commercial, everything's handed to visitors on a plate, it's superficial and so on and so forth. There are an awful lot of people at the top who seem to view the majesty of nature as something to be absorbed at speed, in between visits to snack stands and trinket stalls, for subsequent conversion into a screen saver. They are, I snootily imagine, doing their utmost to make John Muir, founder of modern American naturalism, and Teddy Roosevelt, the president who kick-started America's National Park system, turn in their graves グランドキャニオンでのハイキング、あなたの背後に米国の政治的現実を残すことができます - それらは移動にreturnFrom高原ポイントをより簡単、7マイルhardているグランドキャニオンの上から歩くと、そこ切り立つ急斜面だ、足の何千もの泥に茶色の下のコロラド川

- Poland and Russia: reconciled in tragedy | Jarosław Kurski
The air crash that killed Poland's leaders has led Russia to face its role in past horrors in KatynThere is no such thing as a good death. Every tragic death is senseless and aimless. But today Poles can bring some sense to this unprecedented tragedy in their country's history.For the last 70 years, the name Katyn had little resonance for most people in the west. It was also seen as a symbol of Russophobia on the part of Poles. Paradoxically, what happened on Saturday in Smolensk makes this notion obsolete.Due to last weekend's tragedy, the killing of 22,000 Polish officers by Russians in 1940 will become common knowledge. We Poles do remember that, but because they wanted to keep Russia happy, its western allies chose not to challenge Russian propaganda blaming Germans for the Katyn massacre. Now, the truth will become widely known – and truth is the very first criterion of any reconciliation.A second paradox is that the Russian reaction to the deaths – a crash that claimed the life not only of the Polish president, but of many senior government officials and the entire top brass of the military on their way to Katyn – is creating a unique situation. Authentic reconciliation between Poles and Russians, just like that of French and Germans under Charles de Gaulle and Konrad Adenauer, has now become possible.Across Russia people are crying together with us today. And there are stunning, from our perspective, things happening in Russia as we speak. Prime Minister Vladimir Putin talks about Soviet crime in Katyn. He bows his head for the victims alongside the Polish prime minister, Donald Tusk. After the tragedy in Smolensk, Russia's president, Dmitry Medvedev, talks to the Polish people and declar ポーランドの指導者を殺害した航空機墜落事故は、ロシアKatynThere過去恐怖の役割に直面してつながっている良い死のようなものです
