"ÜBER SIEBEN BRÜCKEN"
Karat-Sänger Herbert Dreilich gestorben
Die Rock-Band Karat dominierte von 1974 bis zur Wende die Pop-Szene der ehemaligen DDR. Mit dem Hit "Über sieben Brücken musst du gehen" wurde die Gruppe um Sänger Herbert Dreilich auch in Westdeutschland bekannt. Nun ist Dreilich im Alter von 62 Jahren gestorben.
DDP Karat-Sänger Herbert Dreilich (im Juli 2000 in Magdeburg): Rocklegende und Kämpfernatur
Noch im März, als ihn die Ärzte nach einer Routineuntersuchung mit der Diagnose Leberkrebs konfrontierten, war Dreilich voller Zuversicht. "Ich habe bis jetzt jede Krankheit überstanden", sagte er. Zwar wurden sämtliche Tour-Termine dieses Jahres abgesagt. Aber 2005 wollte der Sänger, dessen markante Stimme ein Markenzeichen der Band war, wieder mit dabei sein. Immerhin war anlässlich des 30-jährigen Bühnenjubiläums eine große Tournee geplant.
Karat war 1974 aus der damals bekannten Soul-Rockband Panta Rhei hervorgegangen. Dreilichs Truppe gehörte zu den wenigen erfolgreichen Rockbands der DDR, die bereits vor dem Mauerfall Erfolg in Westdeutschland hatten. Insgesamt verkaufte Karat mehr als 8,5 Millionen Tonträger.
1978 brachte die Band das erste Album "Karat" heraus. Mit "Albatros" folgte ein Jahr später das zweite, das mit dem Hit "Über sieben Brücken" auch im Westen auf den Markt kam. Wesentlich bekannter wurde das Lied dort jedoch in der Coverversion von Peter Maffay.
Im Wendejahr 1989 erschien die Platte "... im nächsten Frieden" als Ost-West-Koproduktion. Als Gast kam Maffay hinzu, der den gemeinsamen Hit erstmals mit Dreilich sang. Danach wurde es vorerst still um die Gruppe: In der Nachwendezeit gab es kam Auftrittsmöglichkeiten für Ex-DDR-Bands, das ehemalige Stammpublikum interessierte sich verstärkt für Westproduktionen. Erst 1995 meldete sich Karat - pünktlich zum 20-jährigen Jubiläum - mit der CD "Die geschenkte Stunde" zurück.
1997 erlitt Dreilich kurz nach Erscheinen des Albums "Balance" zum Entsetzen seiner Fans einen Schlaganfall und war zeitweise halbseitig gelähmt. Er überwand jedoch sein gesundheitliches Tief und stand ein Jahr später wieder auf der Bühne. Im Jahr 2000 wurde die Band bei einem Konzert zum 25-jährigen Bestehen auf der Parkbühne in der Berliner Wuhlheide von 17.000 Anhängern enthusiastisch gefeiert.
Karat erhielt in der DDR zahlreiche Auszeichnungen, darunter den Kunst- und den Nationalpreis. Aber auch im Westen fand die Gruppe Anerkennung. Für das vierte Album "Der blaue Planet" (1982) bekam sie erstmals eine Goldene Schallplatte. Gold gab es 1984 rückwirkend auch für Langspielplatte "Albatros". 2003 wurde Karat dann mit dem Media-Control-Preis gewürdigt - für "Der blaue Planet" als meist verkauftes Album einer DDR-Band überhaupt.

Karat-Sänger Herbert Dreilich gestorben
Herbert Dreilich, Sänger der ostdeutschen Band Karat, ist tot. Er starb in der Nacht zum Sonntag im Alter von 62 Jahren in Berlin an Krebs. Karat gehörte neben den Puhdys zu den erfolgreichsten Bands der DDR.
Berlin (13.12.2004, 15:19 Uhr) - Herbert Dreilich war eine der großen Stimmen des Ostrock; für viele war er dessen Stimme schlechthin. Dreilich ist in der Nacht zum Sonntag wenige Tage nach seinem 62. Geburtstag (5. Dezember) in Berlin gestorben. Der mit seiner Band Karat eingespielte Hit «Über sieben Brücken» ist vielleicht der bekannteste DDR-Song überhaupt, durch Peter Maffay wurde das Stück international bekannt. Die Gruppe Karat galt nicht zuletzt dank ihres Frontmannes neben den Puhdys als erfolgreichste Ostband. Mit Titeln wie «Schwanenkönig» und «König der Welt» stürmte sie die Charts. Im Oktober 1997 hatte der Sänger bei einem Konzert in Magdeburg einen Schlaganfall erlitten, er war zeitweise gelähmt. Doch Dreilich rappelte sich auf und stand schon im Frühjahr 1998 wieder auf der Bühne. Zum letzten Mal trat er im August 2003 in einer Fernsehsendung auf. Im März dieses Jahres gab das Karat-Management bekannt, dass Dreilich an Leberkrebs erkrankt war. Er musste sich einer Operation und einer anschließenden Strahlen- und Chemotherapie unterziehen. Alle Auftritte für 2004 waren abgesagt worden. Als «Goldkehle» von Karat hatte Dreilich im Osten die oberste Stufe der Ruhmesleiter erreicht. Nach der Wende musste er freilich auch herbe Kritik einstecken, weil sich die Band nach Meinung mancher in der DDR zu sehr angepasst hatte. Herbert Dreilich kam 1942 in Österreich zur Welt und verlebte seine Schulzeit bei Verwandten in der Bundesrepublik und in England. Mit 16 Jahren kaufte sich der Bluesbegeisterte seine erste Klampfe. Nach Übersiedlung in die DDR nach Halle begann er eine Dekorateur- Lehre und spielte nebenbei als Gitarrist in Dixieland- und Rockbands. Bands wie die Rolling Stones öffentlich nachzuspielen, war damals in der DDR verboten, doch das Publikum wollte gerade die West-Hits hören. «Wenn sich staatliche Kontrolleure auch nur von ferne näherten, waren wir schon gewarnt», hatte Dreilich in einem früheren Gespräch erzählt. «Dann stellten wir das Programm sofort auf Sauflieder wie 'Kornblumenblau' um, und der ganze Saal grölte mit.» 1967 zog Dreilich nach Berlin. Er spielte zwischenzeitlich bei den Puhdys und gründete 1970 unter anderen mit Ulrich Swillms die Avantgardeband Panta Rhei. Fünf Jahre später hoben sie mit Henning Protzmann Karat aus der Taufe. Die Band wurde schnell mit ersten eigenen liedhaften Titeln wie «Leute welch ein Tag» im DDR-Rundfunk gespielt. 1978 erschien die erste Karat-Platte beim DDR-Label Amiga; im selben Jahr nahm die Gruppe am internationalen Schlagerfestival in Dresden teil und räumte auf Anhieb den Grand Prix ab. Herbert Dreilich setzte durch, dass die Band «Über sieben Brücken» aufnahm. 1981 durfte die Erfolgsband zum ersten Mal in der Bundesrepublik, in Wiesbaden, auftreten. Weil Karat von den DDR- Oberen damals verwehrt wurde, im Westfernsehen aufzutreten, coverte Peter Maffay das Stück und machte es zu einem Superhit. Nach der Wende galt Karat vielen im Osten als besonders regimetreue Band, was Dreilich persönlich sehr wurmte. Die Gruppe habe sich vom Staat nie vor den Karren spannen lassen und sich aus politischen Fragen ganz herausgehalten, sagte er einmal. Spätestens Ende der 90er Jahre war die Band, die bis heute rund acht Millionen Platten verkauft hat, auch im Osten wieder gefragt. Im September 2000 hatte Karat mit Freund Peter Maffay in Berlin in der Parkbühne Wuhlheide vor 17 000 Fans 25-jähriges Bühnenjubiläum gefeiert. (Von Thomas Kunze, dpa)

New York City TV station back on the air after studio fire takes down broadcast
NEW YORK: A New York television station was back on the air Monday morning after a fire at its Manhattan studios filled the building with thick smoke and forced staff to evacuate, station officials said.
No one was injured in the fire that knocked out WABC-TV's programming for a couple hours beginning a few minutes before the 11 p.m. newscast Sunday (0300 GMT Monday), leaving the station's viewers with nothing to look at except a black screen or color bars.
WABC-TV returned in time for a 5 a.m. (0900 GMT) newscast Monday morning, with the two morning anchors sitting at a cramped desk in what looked like an office. They said it was a "rough night."
The station took viewers of its early morning newscast backstage of the main studio on the first floor where the fire began, showing charred debris. They said there was water and smoke damage.
Kenny Plotnik, the station's news director, said that the blaze started when one of the lights in the first-floor studio burst and a curtain caught fire. A spokesman for the New York Fire Department said the cause remained under investigation.
Plotnik said the fire was put out quickly, but that it sent smoke throughout the building, forcing about 50 staff members to evacuate.
Sprinklers were activated and smoke inundated the building, a fire official said.
The national ABC network has offices in the adjoining building, which was also evacuated but not affected by the fire, Jay Jonas, a deputy fire chief at the scene, told The New York Times.

A fire broke out in the WABC-TV studios at 66th Street and Columbus Avenue in New York, New York. It started at around 11pm EDT Sunday evening, and caused programming to be suspended for over two hours. The New York Fire Department has put out the fire, which is described as minor.
A witness says that a light bulb had set a curtain on fire just before the 11 o'clock news. News anchor Joe Torres said he heard "a light bulb blow with a loud bang". Moments later, the studio was evacuated.There were no injuries reported, but there was significant smoke and water damage to the studio.

WABC-TV was knocked off the air just before its 11 p.m. newscast last night after a spotlight exploded and caused a fire at its Lincoln Center headquarters, according to a station official.
The office was evacuated and no one was injured, according to officials of WABC, which broadcasts on Channel 7.
“We had to go to black,” said the WABC news director, Kenny Plotnik. The channel was blacked out through the entire New York City metropolitan market for more than two hours last night and early today.
“There was smoke all over the place,” Mr. Plotnik said. “We couldn’t broadcast because everybody had to be evacuated.” The light bulb had set a curtain on fire, witnesses said.
The fire started in the ground-level studios, at Columbus Avenue and 66th Street, shortly before the 11 o’clock news was to go on air. “Approximately 10 to 11 I heard a light bulb blow with a loud bang, which isn’t that uncommon, actually,” said Joe Torres, a news anchor.
A stagehand and another employee went behind the set to investigate. “All I saw was flames and I screamed ‘Fire’ to get everyone out,” said Grant Brown, the stagehand who was the first person to see the fire. Mr. Brown said that initially people on the set didn’t believe him. “People looked at me like I was crazy. I mean, who has a fire in the studio?” he said.
Sandra Brookman, another anchor, said “I was more startled than scared.”
Employees then ran up to the fourth floor to warn the news department staff in case they thought it was a false alarm or a drill. “They looked a bit startled,” she said.
The national ABC network, which has offices in an adjoining building, was also evacuated, though it was not affected by the fire, according to Jay Jonas, a deputy fire chief who was on the scene.
It was unable to help the local station get back on the air without its workers in the building, according to Sean Grimes, a technical manager for the ABC national network.

Le Monde | 26.07.2016 à 07h30 • Mis à jour le 26.07.2016 à 11h26 | Par Fabien Goubet (Le Temps)
Ce n’était ni l’étape la plus longue, ni la plus difficile, encore moins la plus spectaculaire. Pourtant, c’est bien ce dix-septième et dernier vol qui restera dans l’histoire, celui dont le monde se souviendra. Mardi 26 juillet, l’avion solaire Solar Impulse 2 a bouclé le premier tour du monde aérien – près de 40 000 kilomètres – sans la moindre goutte de carburant.
Parti du Caire en Egypte samedi, le pilote Bertrand Piccard est arrivé à l’aéroport Al-Bateen d’Abou Dhabi, aux Emirats Arabes Unis, vers 4 heures mardi, après quarante-huit heures de vol. C’est de ce même tarmac que son partenaire, André Borschberg, s’était élancé lors de la première étape, en mars 2015.
Alors que les organisateurs peinaient à contenir la horde de journalistes et de caméramen qui se rapprochaient dangereusement de la piste, Solar Impulse 2 a entamé son approche finale pour se poser avec la légèreté d’une plume, dans un silence à peine rompu, quelques secondes avant que ses roues touchent le sol, par les couinements de ses hélices.
« Plus qu’un exploit dans l’histoire de l’aviation, c’est un exploit dans l’histoire des énergies renouvelables, a déclaré Bertrand Piccard en débarquant de l’aéronef. C’est maintenant à votre tour d’aller plus loin ! »
Dans la plus pure tradition des grands explorateurs
Avec 2 694 kilomètres parcourus, l’ultime étape fait pourtant pâle figure devant les quelque 8 900 km avalés par André Borschberg entre Nagoya, au Japon, et Hawaii, en cinq jours et cinq nuits, établissant le record du plus long vol en solitaire sans ravitaillement et sans escale. Ou encore les 6 300 km de traversée de l’Atlantique entre New York et Séville, reliées en trois jours… Mais le dernier saut de puce, entre Le Caire et Abou Dhabi, n’était pas gagné d’avance pour autant. Les conditions météorologiques avaient conduit l’équipe à reporter le décollage, notamment en raison de températures extrêmes approchant la limite supportable pour l’appareil.
Manque d’intérêt des sponsors, méfiance voire défiance vis-à-vis du projet… Les débuts de l’aventure s’inscrivent dans la plus pure tradition des grands explorateurs. L’idée d’un avion solaire germe en 2003 dans l’esprit de Bertrand Piccard, psychiatre et aérostier dans le canton de Vaud, en Suisse, et une première maquette est réalisée un an plus tard. Mais, face à des difficultés de financement, il faut attendre 2009 pour que la première version de Solar Impulse soit construite. Et quelques mois de plus pour démontrer que l’avion peut voler. Deux ans plus tard, Solar Impulse traverse la Méditerranée ; Bertrand Piccard pense déjà à une version améliorée capable de faire le tour du monde avec le soleil pour seul carburant. Solar Impulse 2 est mis en chantier début 2014 et effectue son premier vol en juin.
Le 9 mars 2015, il entame son tour du monde avec escales. Les deux pilotes suisses se relaient dans le cockpit minuscule. Chaque étape est une lourde épreuve physique et psychologique : sommeil fragmenté, solitude, yoga pratiqué dans l’espace réduit du poste de pilotage comme seul moyen de maintenir le corps fonctionnel…

Performance pionnière hors du commun
Et maintenant ? Au-delà de cette performance pionnière et hors du commun, il est encore tôt pour esquisser le véritable héritage légué par Solar Impulse. Mais Bertrand Piccard et André Borschberg en sont persuadés : ce n’est que le début.
Ils en veulent pour preuve la récente création par leurs soins du Comité international pour les technologies propres (ICCT). Le but de cette organisation est de fédérer un maximum d’organisations environnementales, d’entreprises et d’associations, capables de parler d’une seule voix et d’avoir ainsi plus de poids et d’impact au niveau politique. Selon Bertrand Piccard, plus de 400 structures ont déjà répondu présent.

Mais ce n’est pas tout. André Borschberg compte bien capitaliser sur l’expérience et le savoir-faire acquis par son équipe pour se lancer dans des projets industriels. Il vise la conception d’une nouvelle génération de drones solaires stratosphériques capables de faire le travail de satellites spatiaux, mais à un moindre coût et avec une résolution spatio-temporelle plus importante.
« On touche au but de faire voler un engin six mois, assez haut [environ 20 km] pour survoler le transport aérien, et tel qu’il puisse porter une charge assez lourde pour faire de la communication par exemple », confiait André Borschberg en janvier 2015. Des géants tels qu’Airbus ou, plus inattendus, Facebook qui vient de tester avec succès son prototype de drone solaire, sont déjà sur le créneau.
Et l’aviation dans tout ça ? Bien que les vols long-courriers demeurent loin de troquer le kérosène pour les rayons du soleil, Bertrand Piccard parie que d’ici dix ans, nous aurons des avions électriques embarquant une cinquantaine de passagers pour des vols courts et moyens courriers, écrit-il sur son blog.

La prédiction peut faire sourire. Mais n’en était-il pas de même il y a à peine quinze ans lorsqu’il prophétisait faire le tour du monde avec un avion qui n’existait alors que de son imagination ? « Il n’y a qu’une seule façon d’échouer, c’est de ne pas essayer », dit Bertrand Piccard.

Stem cell 'major discovery' claimed
Continue reading the main story Related Stories
Stem cell researchers are heralding a "major scientific discovery", with the potential to start a new age of personalised medicine.
Scientists in Japan showed stem cells can now be made quickly just by dipping blood cells into acid.
Stem cells can transform into any tissue and are already being trialled for healing the eye, heart and brain.
The latest development, published in the journal Nature, could make the technology cheaper, faster and safer.
The human body is built of cells with a specific role - nerve cells, liver cells, muscle cells - and that role is fixed.
However, stem cells can become any other type of cell, and they have become a major field of research in medicine for their potential to regenerate the body.
Embryos are one, ethically charged, source of stem cells. Nobel prize winning research also showed that skin cells could be "genetically reprogrammed" to become stem cells (termed induced pluripotent stem cells).
Acid bath
Now a study shows that shocking blood cells with acid could also trigger the transformation into stem cells - this time termed STAP (stimulus-triggered acquisition of pluripotency) cells.
Dr Haruko Obokata, from the Riken Centre for Developmental Biology in Japan, said she was "really surprised" that cells could respond to their environment in this way.
She added: "It's exciting to think about the new possibilities these findings offer us, not only in regenerative medicine, but cancer as well."
The breakthrough was achieved in mouse blood cells, but research is now taking place to achieve the same results with human blood.
Chris Mason, professor of regenerative medicine at University College London, said if it also works in humans then "the age of personalised medicine would have finally arrived."
He told the BBC: "I thought - 'my God that's a game changer!' It's a very exciting, but surprise, finding.
"It looks a bit too good to be true, but the number of experts who have reviewed and checked this, I'm sure that it is.
"If this works in people as well as it does in mice, it looks faster, cheaper and possibly safer than other cell reprogramming technologies - personalised reprogrammed cell therapies may now be viable."
For age-related macular degeneration, which causes sight loss, it takes 10 months to go from a patient's skin sample to a therapy that could be injected into their eye -and at huge cost.
Prof Mason said weeks could be knocked off that time which would save money, as would cheaper components.
'Revolutionary'
The finding has been described as "remarkable" by the Medical Research Council's Prof Robin Lovell-Badge and as "a major scientific discovery" by Dr Dusko Ilic, a reader in stem cell science at Kings College London.
Dr Ilic added: "The approach is indeed revolutionary.
"It will make a fundamental change in how scientists perceive the interplay of environment and genome."
But he added: "It does not bring stem cell-based therapy closer. We will need to use the same precautions for the cells generated in this way as for the cells isolated from embryos or reprogrammed with a standard method."
And Prof Lovell-Badge said: "It is going to be a while before the nature of these cells are understood, and whether they might prove to be useful for developing therapies, but the really intriguing thing to discover will be the mechanism underlying how a low pH shock triggers reprogramming - and why it does not happen when we eat lemon or vinegar or drink cola?"

Haruko Obokata, científica japonesa del Instituto de Investigación RIKEN, logró crear células madre a partir de sumergir glóbulos rojos en ácido. Lo que se ha considerado como un “gran descubrimiento” con la posibilidad de convertirse en el inicio de una nueva era en la medicina.
El cuerpo humano está compuesto de diferentes tipos de tejido: nervios, músculos, piel, entre otros. Las pueden transformarse en cualquier tipo de tejido y se investigan sus usos para la curación de ojos, corazón y cerebro. Este descubrimiento podría ayudar a desarrollar tecnología de este ámbito más barata y segura.
Antes de este descubrimiento ya existían dos métodos de obtener células madre: modificando células adultas especializadas o partir de células embrionarias. Este descubrimiento evitaría los problemas de costes del primer método y la controversia con la ética de la segunda.

La carrera para conseguir células madre lo más parecidas a las embrionarias cuenta con un nuevo competidor: las que se obtienen estresando células adultas. Esto, en la práctica, quiere decir, básicamente, sumergiéndolas en un baño de ácido. Lo publica Nature.
Hasta ahora, para conseguir células madre había, de una manera general, dos posibilidades: obtenerlas de embriones (destruyéndolos o no) o reprogramando células adultas. Para ello había que añadirles una serie de factores. Así se conseguían las llamadas iPS (células madre pluripotenciales inducidas), que no eran tan maleables como las embrionarias, pero casi. La nueva aportación va en la misma línea (se parte de células adultas) pero por un método en apariencia más sencillo y con un resultado más próximo a las células totipotenciales, las que pueden transformarse en cualquier tejido y no solo en unos cuantos. Las ha desarrollado un equipo del RIKEN Center for Developmental Biology ide Kobe (Japón).
La aproximación es tan novedosa que la autora principal, Haruko Obokata, necesitó cinco años para convencer a sus jefes y a una revista para que lo publicaran. Tuvo que grabar la transformación de un tipo de célula de la que no hay duda acerca de que se trata de una muy especializada, un linfocito T, para convencerles. Ya lo ha conseguido partiendo de cerebro, piel, pulmón e hígado. A las nuevas céluals las ha bautizado como STAP, siglas en inglés de stimulus-triggered acquisition of pluripotency (adquisición de pluripotencia por estumulación). Luego, las ha introducido en ratones añadiéndoles genes fluorescentes para confirmar que se diferencian en los distintos tejidos de un ser vivo.
El también japonés Shinya Yamanaka, que fue el primero en conseguir células iPS, ha dado la bienvenida al artículo: “Los trabajos son importantes para entender la reprogramación celular. Desde un punto de vista de cara a una aplicación médica, es un nuevo método de conseguir células del tipo de las iPS”.

Científicos del Centro RIKEN para la Biología del Desarrollo en Japón han presentado un nuevo procedimiento para conseguir células madre de una manera más rápida y sencilla. Este procedimiento consiste en sumergir células de la sangre durante 30 minutos en un medio de alta acidez.
Los métodos actuales intentan conseguir las células madre bien a partir del embrión humano, un procedimiento polémico, o reprogramando células adultas de la piel o de la sangre, algo que no siempre funciona. Para los expertos, el descubrimiento del Centro RIKEN es muy prometedor.
“En el futuro este procedimiento podría permitirnos regenerar los órganos dentro del cuerpo además de ayudarnos a entender cómo gestionar la producción de células madre para desarrollar una tecnología que nos permita controlar el cáncer”, explica Haruko Obokata, responsable del Centro RIKEN.
Pero, por el momento, la técnica descubierta en Japón ha sido probada únicamente en ratones. Para demostrar el potencial de las células tratadas, los científicos las inyectaron en embriones de estos animales y constataron que las células se desarrollaban en los tejidos y en los órganos sin problemas.
Ahora los investigadores esperan que el procedimiento funcione también en los humanos, lo que significaría el desarrollo de una terapia revolucionaria.
“Estas células pueden volver a un estado embrionario. En el futuro, deberíamos ser capaces incluso de alcanzar el objetivo tanto tiempo soñado, es decir, una técnica anti-edad”, asegura Obokata.
Haruko Obokata tardó mucho tiempo en convencer a sus colegas sobre el potencial de su descubrimiento y sus estudios fueron rechazados en varias ocasiones.
Obokata, se vió entonces obligada a realizar muchas más pruebas para demostrar que los resultados de su descubrimiento eran reales.

O Brasil deve encerrar o próximo ano com um deficit primário de R$ 233,6 bilhões. A previsão é do Poder Executivo, que enviou ao Congresso Nacional em agosto a proposta orçamentária para 2021 (PLN 28/2020). A cifra é 56,1% maior do que a estimativa feita pelo próprio Palácio do Planalto há quatro meses. Em abril, quando apresentou o projeto de Lei de Diretrizes Orçamentárias (PLN 9/2020), o presidente Jair Bolsonaro calculou o resultado negativo nas contas em R$ 149,6 bilhões.
O aumento na previsão de deficit foi provocado pela revisão para baixo da arrecadação. O PLN 28/2020 prevê uma receita líquida de R$ 1,283 trilhão em 2021, queda de R$ 97,3 bilhões em relação ao estimado em abril. As despesas foram projetadas em R$ 1,517 trilhão, recuo de R$ 13,3 bilhões na mesma comparação. “A mudança se explica fundamentalmente pela reestimativa da receita primária em 2021, que traz consigo os efeitos recessivos da pandemia da covid-19 sobre a arrecadação”, explica Jair Bolsonaro na mensagem enviada ao Congresso.
Com a incerteza sobre o comportamento da economia, o Poder Executivo quer implementar um sistema diferente para lidar com o controle dos gastos em 2021. Nos anos anteriores, as propostas orçamentárias traziam uma meta fiscal objetiva que deveria ser perseguida pela União para manter a dívida pública sob controle. Em 2019, essa meta foi de R$ 139 bilhões negativos. Em 2020, o deficit chegou a ser fixado em R$ 124,1 bilhões, mas deve superar os R$ 812,2 bilhões. O cumprimento da meta não será exigido por conta da pandemia de coronavírus.
O sistema previsto para 2021 é de uma meta móvel. Assim, sempre que houver modificação das estimativas de receitas ou despesas, o Palácio do Planalto pode rever o resultado primário. De acordo com o PLN 28/2020, a meta inicial de R$ 233,6 bilhões deve ser atualizada automaticamente a cada dois meses.
Teto e regra de ouro
Um informativo produzido em conjunto pelas Consultorias de Orçamento do Senado e da Câmara detalha os principais pontos da proposta orçamentária. O documento destaca, por exemplo, que a mudança na meta fiscal não altera o cumprimento do teto de gastos, previsto na Emenda Constitucional 95, de 2016. O texto fixa limites individualizados para as despesas primárias dos Três Poderes.
Para 2021, o limite para os gastos da União é de R$ 1,485 trilhão. O valor corresponde ao teto de 2020 (R$ 1,454 trilhões) corrigido pela inflação de 2,13% (IPCA). Do total, o Executivo fica com R$ 1,421 trilhão (95,7%), enquanto Legislativo e Judiciário administram R$ 64,332 bilhões (4,3%).
O PLN 28/2020 também não mexe na chamada “regra de ouro”, mecanismo que proíbe o governo de fazer dívidas para pagar despesas correntes, como salários, aposentadoria e custeio da máquina pública. O texto fixa uma margem que pode ser usada pelo Poder Executivo para emitir títulos da dívida e financiar gastos correntes. Mas isso depende de aprovação do Congresso Nacional. São R$ 453,72 bilhões em 2021, ante os R$ 343,6 bilhões de 2020.
A oposição criticou a peça orçamentária enviada pelo Poder Executivo. O senador Paulo Rocha (PT-PA) censurou o ministro da Economia, Paulo Guedes, e disse que o PLN 28/2020 é incapaz de promover o desenvolvimento. “A cada dia, Guedes mostra mais a sua incompetência, mantendo a economia estagnada e levando o Brasil para um precipício. Não é apenas o tamanho do PIB, mas a insistência em manter agenda que impede investimentos, congela gastos e assola a vida do trabalhador”, escreveu em uma rede social.
Para o senador Nelsinho Trad (PSD-MS), o PLN 28/2020 foi impactado pela pandemia de coronavírus. Mas deve passar por alterações durante a tramitação no Congresso.
— A peça orçamentária prevê o impacto pós-pandemia. Mas asseguro que ela deverá sofrer transformações. É mais do que natural que as prioridades do Parlamento também sejam incluídas no orçamento de 2021. Quanto às operações de crédito, estamos prontos para cumprir com nosso dever de equilibrar o orçamento e as contas públicas — disse.

O deve encerrar o próximo ano com um deficit primário de R$ 233,6 bilhões. A previsão é do Poder Executivo, que enviou ao Congresso Nacional em agosto a proposta orçamentária para 2021 (PLN 28/2020). A cifra é 56,1% maior do que a estimativa feita pelo próprio Palácio do Planalto há quatro meses. Em abril, quando apresentou o projeto de Lei de Diretrizes Orçamentárias (PLN 9/2020), o presidente calculou o resultado negativo nas contas em R$ 149,6 bilhões.
O aumento na previsão de deficit foi provocado pela revisão para baixo da arrecadação. O PLN 28/2020 prevê uma receita líquida de R$ 1,283 trilhão em 2021, queda de R$ 97,3 bilhões em relação ao estimado em abril. As despesas foram projetadas em R$ 1,517 trilhão, recuo de R$ 13,3 bilhões na mesma comparação. “A mudança se explica fundamentalmente pela reestimativa da receita primária em 2021, que traz consigo os efeitos recessivos da pandemia da sobre a arrecadação”, explica Jair Bolsonaro na mensagem enviada ao Congresso.
Com a incerteza sobre o comportamento da economia, o Poder Executivo quer implementar um sistema diferente para lidar com o controle dos gastos em 2021. Nos anos anteriores, as propostas orçamentárias traziam uma meta fiscal objetiva que deveria ser perseguida pela União para manter a dívida pública sob controle. Em 2019, essa meta foi de R$ 139 bilhões negativos. Em 2020, o deficit chegou a ser fixado em R$ 124,1 bilhões, mas deve superar os R$ 812,2 bilhões.

MP Ahmed Tibi called Israel's attacks on Gaza an election strategy
Israel's election authorities have voted to ban two of the three main Arab political parties from running in next month's general elections.
The Central Election Committee (CEC)voted overwhelmingly to ban the United Arab List-Ta'al (UAL-Ta'al) and Balad, accusing them of supporting terrorism.
An MP for UAL-Ta'al said the move was racist and he would appeal against it.
Arabs make up about a fifth of Israel's population and hold seven of 120 seats in the Knesset, or parliament.
Israeli Arabs have full citizenship but often complain they suffer from discrimination.
'Election strategy'
The 30-member panel voted 26-3 with one abstention to disqualify Balad, and voted 21-3 with eight abstentions to disqualify UAL-Ta'al.
The committee is composed of representatives from Israel's major political parties.
The measure was proposed by the National Union and Israel Beiteinu, two ultra-nationalist parties.
The motion claimed the two Arab parties supported terrorism and "did not recognise Israel's existence as a Jewish and democratic state", Knesset spokesman Giora Pordis told the AFP news agency.
The Israeli high court has until Friday to rule on the decision - the deadline for submitting Knesset lists.
The Arab members of the committee walked out of the session before the vote was held, after a stormy debate about the Israeli military's operations in Gaza.
"This racist government want us out of the Knesset during the war on Gaza," Mr Tibi told the BBC's Fouad Abu-ghosh.
"They are accusing us of supporting the terror while they are killing children in Gaza," he added.

Israel's Central Election Committee voted yesterday to disqualify two Arab political parties from running in the country's general elections scheduled for February 10th. The committee voted 26–3 to disqualify the Arab political party Balad, and 21–3 with eight abstentions to disqualify an alliance of parties United Arab List and Ta'al. The UAL-Ta'al is sometimes also called Ra'am Ta'al.
Ahmed Tibi has been a legislator in Israel's Knesset since 1999
A "stormy" debate was initiated by petitions from rival parties that accuse UAL-Ta'al and Balad of undermining Israel and supporting violence against it. Arab committee members including Ahmed Tibi, leader of UAL-Ta'al, walked out of the committee before the vote.
Tibi condemned the ruling saying, "It was a political trial led by a group of fascists and racists who are willing to see the Knesset without Arabs and want to see the country without Arabs."
Arabs constitute one fifth of the population in Israel but only have twelve of 120 parliamentary seats. Arabs say that they face daily discrimination. Other parties associated with the Arab-Israeli minority, such as Hadash, are not affected by the committee's decision.
Israel's High Court of Justice reversed a similar attempt to ban Balad in 2003, and has until Friday to rule on yesterday's votes.

News Middle East Israel poll ban for Arab parties Tibi and other Arab MPs have opposed Israel's aerial and ground assault on the Gaza Strip [File: EPA]
Two Arab political parties have been disqualified from running in Israel's parliamentary elections on February 10 after they were accused of not recognising the country's right to exist.
A Central Election Committee panel voted on Monday to back the motion filed by two right-wing parties, which also accused the National Democratic Assembly (also known as Balad) and Ra'am-Ta'al of incitement and supporting "terrorist" groups. Ahmed Tibi and Jamal Zahalka, who lead the two rival Arab parties in parliament, joined together in condemning Monday's decision.
"It was a political trial led by a group of fascists and racists who are willing to see the Knesset without Arabs and want to see the country without Arabs," Tibi said. He said that his Ra'am-Ta'al party intended to petition the supreme court about the decision.
"If the members of the panel had weapons, they would have shot us in the head," Tibi said.
'Fifth column'
At a recent Knesset session, called to discuss the Israeli assault on the Gaza Strip, Arab MPs condemned the conflict, which has now killed more than 900 Palestinians and injured thousands of others.

Watch our coverage of the war on Gaza "As a humane person, I oppose targeting civilians wherever they are. Naturally, however, every time an Arab is injured it hurts me more because we are members of the same nation," Tibi told the Knesset.
In response, Avigdor Lieberman, the leader of the Yisrael Beiteinu party which petitioned for the Arab parties to be barred, described the Arab MPs as a "fifth column" - a connotation to a group typically clandestinely undermining a nation.
Tibi responded by calling him a "fascist", while Talab al-Sana, another Arab MP, was removed from the meeting after repeatedly interrupting Lieberman's speech.
Zahalka had boycotted the Knesset session saying he was not willing to take part in a "celebration of death".
The two parties are the only exclusively Arab blocs in the Israeli Knesset, however the decision does not affect Arabs in predominantly Jewish parties or the communist party.
Together they hold seven of the 120 parliamentary seats.
About one-fifth of Israel's seven million citizens are Arabs with full citizenship rights, but have suffered due to discrimination and poverty.
Most are descended from the 160,000 Palestinians who remained in Israel after its creation in 1948. "As a humane person, I oppose targeting civilians wherever they are.

Israel 12/01/2009 High Court They tried to ban these parties before, and the ban went before the High Court where it was overturned. Let's hope that this happens again. Much as I dislike Balad and Ta'al, they should have every right to put candidates forward for the Knesset.

The jewish & christians in Iran live side by side with the Muslims, no walls, no death camps, no check points & no other abuses that goes in Israel. This abuses are in visible in Israel & should tell you a lot about this Zionist State.

United States 12/01/2009 Israel poll ban for Arab parties..... One of the reasons for democracy is the protection of the minority point of view. This decision is clearly is fascist and undemocratic. The discrimination against Arabs in Israel is well known: The majority of their lands was looted by successive Israeli governments, their access to employment is restricted, their political and social rights disregarded and government in their infrastructure is minimal. Their cheap labor ironically subsidizes the dominant majority. Shame on such a democracy.

(CNN) -- Serbia's ultra-nationalist challenger Tomislav Nikolic will face pro-Western incumbent Boris Tadic in a presidential runoff on February 3, The Associated Press reported on Monday.
Serbian voters are set to head for the polling booths again on February 3 in a presidential runoff.
The state electoral commission said that Radical Party leader Tomislav Nikolic won 39 percent of the first round of voting on Sunday, while Tadic had 35 percent.
Populist Velimir Ilic was in third place with about seven percent, and Socialist Party official Milutin Mrkonjic was next with about six percent.
The pro-Russia Nikolic is expected to pick up the majority of their votes in the runoff, according to analysts.
Tadic -- who also opposes Kosovo's imminent bid for independence from Serbia -- will be counting on the votes that went to liberal leader Cedomir Jovanovic, who placed fifth with about five percent.
CNN's European political editor Robin Oakley believes that the runoff will be a pivotal moment in the Balkan nation's history.
"February 3 therefore becomes a crucial choice not just for Serbians but for many across the Balkans who fear a further decade of instability and economic stagnation," Oakley said.
"The European Union, Russia and the United States, which is backing early Kosovan independence, will all be watching closely."
The biggest issue in the race has been the possible secession of the majority-Albanian province of Kosovo. The territory has been under U.N. administration since the end of the 1999 NATO bombing campaign that halted Milosevic's campaign of "ethnic cleansing" against the Albanians, who make up about 90 percent of Kosovo's 2 million people.
The outcome of the election could determine whether Serbia forges closer ties with the West or drifts further toward Russia.
Both Tadic, who was elected in 2004, and Nikolic -- an ally of the late Yugoslav strongman Slobodan Milosevic -- oppose independence.
But Tadic is a western-leaning leader who has pushed for Serbia to join the European Union, while Nikolic supports closer ties with a resurgent Russia, the Serbs' historical ally.
Edward Joseph, an analyst at the Johns Hopkins University School of Advanced International Studies in Washington, said the election has Serbia balanced "on a knife's edge."
"There is a clear choice there, and Nikolic's election would indeed be a setback for Serbia and increase its isolation," Joseph told CNN. The estimated turnout of 61 percent "shows the intensity of the division in Serbia and the intensity of the concern about this election," he said.
Serb nationalists see Kosovo as the cradle of their civilization and see its independence as the dismemberment of their country. Tadic and Prime Minister Vojislav Kostunica have criticized the United States and leading European Union powers that back its secession, which Russia opposes.
But, while losing Kosovo would be "deeply painful for all Serbs," many realize that Kosovo "is overwhelmingly Albanian, and it is lost and its independence is inevitable," Joseph said.
Nikolic was a supporter of Milosevic, who presided over the breakup of Yugoslavia and the decade of nationalist "ethnic cleansing" that followed. Milosevic was forced from office about a year after the Kosovo campaign and died in 2006 while awaiting trial for war crimes before a U.N. tribunal.
Nikolic served briefly with a notorious Serb paramilitary during the war that followed Croatia's secession from Yugoslavia in 1991.
The leader of his Serb Radical Party, Vojislav Seselj, is currently awaiting trial before the same tribunal that Milosevic faced. E-mail to a friend

Boris Tadić, current President of Serbia
Tomislav Nikolić has won the first round of the Serbian presidential election with nearly 40% of the vote, according to election officials. Incumbent Boris Tadić came in second with 35% of the votes. The two will face each other in a runoff election on February 3.
Coming in third was Velimir Ilić with about 7%, followed by Milutin Mrkonjić with about 6%.
Tadic, a member of the Democratic Party, has pro-Western attitudes and supports Serbian membership in the European Union. Nikolić, leader of the Serbian Radical Party, supports closer ties with Russia, Serbia's historical ally. Both candidates are against Kosovan independence, which has been a major issue in the election.
"One thing is certain: This will be the tightest election ever in Serbia and the winner won't be known until the last second," said Marko Blagojevic of Belgrade's Centre for Free Elections and Democracy, a vote monitoring group.
There was a record 61% voter turnout in the first round of the election.

According to the Republican Electoral Commission, after 98.68% votes counted:

By Ellie Tzortzi
BELGRADE (Reuters) - Serbs face a choice between a nationalist who leans towards Russia and a liberal favouring the West in a presidential election run-off next month.
Both candidates oppose independence for the breakaway province of Kosovo, expected to be declared soon after the second round vote with the backing of the West.
Nationalist challenger Tomislav Nikolic took 40 percent in Sunday's first round, according to final results, ahead of 35.4 percent for pro-Western President Boris Tadic.
The two men will compete in a February 3 run-off, a repeat of the 2004 race which Tadic won with 53.2 percent.
Analysts said Sunday's 61 percent turnout -- strong by Serb standards and the highest since the fall of Slobodan Milosevic in 2000 -- showed how seriously people took the vote. Turnout could be even higher on February 3.
The election comes at a pivotal moment for Serbia as it faces the loss of its historic heartland Kosovo where the Albanian majority is seeking independence.
The second-round will require a "maximum mobilisation by both candidates", analyst Zoran Stojiljkovic told Belgrade daily Danas. "We can expect a tight race and a decision in photo-finish, with Tadic having only a slight lead."
Tadic has warned of dark days if Nikolic wins and in effect has the backing of the European Union, which on Monday said it was "confident that Serbia will continue to pursue its European course." Continued...

Nach der Ermordung des libanesischen Industrieministers Pierre Gemayel wachsen die Spannungen zwischen pro- und antisyrischen Kräften innerhalb des Libanon. Führende Politiker machen das benachbarte Syrien für das Attentat verantwortlich. Im Libanon wurde heute eine dreitägige Staatstrauer angeordnet.
Der antisyrische Politiker Gemayel, Sohn eines früheren Präsidenten, war gestern in einem vorwiegend von Christen bewohnten Stadtviertel der libanesischen Hauptstadt Beirut erschossen worden. Es war der sechste antisyrische Politiker, der in den letzten zwei Jahren einem Attentat zum Opfer gefallen ist. Im Februar 2005 war es nach der Ermordung des damaligen libanesischen Ministerpräsidenten Rafiq al-Hariri zum Rücktritt der Regierung im Libanon gekommen.
Drusenführer Walid Dschumblatt warnte vor weiteren Anschlägen auf Minister des Landes. Ziel Syriens sei es, die Einsetzung eines Tribunals zu verhindern, das die Ermordung Hariris untersuchen soll, weil der syrische Präsident selbst schwer belastet werden könnte. Am Montag hatte die libanesische Regierung der Einrichtung eines solchen Tribunals zugestimmt. Die Zustimmung der Regierung zur Einsetzung des Tribunals hatte die libanesische Regierung jedoch selbst in eine Krise gestürzt. Sechs prosyrische Minister waren von ihren Ämtern zurückgetreten, um die Abstimmung über diese Frage unwirksam zu machen. Der als prosyrisch geltende Präsident Émile Lahoud hatte daraufhin die Abstimmung für ungültig erklärt.
Das gestrige Attentat ist international verurteilt worden, darunter auch von Syrien. Der Papst rief heute den auf dem Petersplatz versammelten Gläubigen zu: „Ich verurteile solche brutalen Angriffe auf das Entschiedenste.“ Auch führende Politiker Deutschlands verurteilten den Anschlag. Regierungssprecher Ulrich Wilhelm sagte, eine Lösung des Nahostkonflikts könne nur unter Beteiligung Syriens erreicht werden. Zugleich werde Deutschland das Ziel eines „souveränen unabhängigen Libanon“ intensiv begleiten.
Auch Frankreich warnte vor einer weiteren Destabilisierung des Libanon.

Ihre Leserbrief wurde an den Autor versendet.
Die Hisbollah arbeitet weiter am Sturz der Regierung. Bei den Trauerferiern für den ermordeten Minister Pierre Gemayel kommt es ersten Gewaltausbrüchen. Trotz internationaler Appelle ist die Lage alles andere als stabil.
Eigentlich war Unabhängigkeitstag im Libanon. Viele Libanesen fürchteten Böses, denn zur Feier des Tages plante die von Syrien und dem Iran gesponserte Schiitenmiliz Hisbollah eine Großdemonstration, um den Sturz der Regierung und mehr Macht für sich selbst zu fordern.
Das Böse war gestern aber bereits eingetreten. Pierre Gemayel, Industrieminister und prominenter Führer der christlichen Falange-Partei, war ermordet worden. Jeder weitere Zwischenfall drohte zu einer Explosion der Gewalt zu führen - die offiziellen Unabhängigkeitsfeiern wurden daher rasch abgesetzt, dafür drei Tage Staatstrauer angesetzt, und auch die Hisbollah verzichtete auf ihre Großveranstaltung. Statt Paraden und Festtagsreden bestand das Fernsehprogramm aus Aufnahmen des Sarges von Pierre Gemayel und den langen Schlangen jener, die von ihm Abschied nahmen. Die schwächliche und konfessionell gespaltene libanesische Armee errichtete Checkpoints in Beirut und in christlichen Gebieten, um Racheakte zu verhindern. Dennoch kam es zu sporadischen Gewaltausbrüchen. Autos wurden in Brand gesteckt und Parteibüros attackiert.
Politiker aller Couleur, die Familie Gemayel, die Regierungen der Großmächte, der Papst und die UN, alle riefen die Libanesen auf, Ruhe zu bewahren und auf Gewalt zu verzichten. Zugleich wurden aber die Fronten klar abgesteckt. Staatspräsident Lahoud, ein treuer Verbündeter Syriens im Libanon, nannte den Mord den neuesten Aspekt einer "Verschwörung", die mit dem Mord am sunnitischen Politiker Rafik Hariri im Februar 2005 ihren Anfang genommen habe. Im Klartext hieß das, dass er die Täter im Lager jener sieht, die Syriens Einfluss im Libanon beenden wollen - also Israel und die Westmächte.
Ganz anders sehen es Wortführer des prowestlichen Lagers wie Regierungschef Siniora und Walid Dschumblatt. Letzerer, selten um klare Worte verlegen, nannte Syrien als Täter und fügte hinzu: "Ich erwarte weitere Morde, aber wir sind hier und werden am Ende triumphieren."
Der Sicherheitsrat der Vereinten Nationen nahm derweil Pläne für ein UN-Tribunal zur Aufklärung des Hariri-Mordes an. Damit wurde dieses Tribunal zum Brennpunkt der Machtfrage im Libanon. Denn als Drahtzieher verdächtigt werden führende Persönlichkeiten des syrischen Regimes, und alles scheint sich derzeit darum zu drehen, Freunde und Feinde Syriens im Libanon um diese Kernfrage zu mobilisieren.
Die formale Annahme des Plans durch den Sicherheitsrat wird nun dazu führen, dass UN-Generalsekretär Kofi Annan den Plan formell der libanesischen Regierung zur Annahme vorlegen kann. Dafür ist eine Mehrheit der Minister notwendig. Um dies zu verhindern, hatten die Hisbollah und ihre Verbündeten ihre sechs Kabinettsminister bereits aus der Regierung zurückgezogen. Damit blieb im Kabinett eine Mehrheit von zwei Stimmen für den Plan. Nach dem Tod Gemayels ist es nur noch ein Minister, von dessen Stimme die Entscheidung für oder wider das Tribunal abhängen wird.
Paralell zu der Hariri-Entscheidung verurteilte der Sicherheitsrat einstimmig die Ermordung Gemayels und äußerte sich besorgt über die möglichen Folgen des Attentats. Gemayel sei, hieß es in einer entsprechenden Erklärung, "ein Symbol der Freiheit und der politischen Unabhängigkeit" des Landes gewesen, hieß es. Der amerikanische Botschafter bei den Vereinten Nationen, John Bolton, will sich dafür einsetzen, dass sich das geplante Tribunal auch mit dem Mord an Gemayel befasst.
Es sieht nicht so aus, als würde der Mord zu einem Innehalten im libanesischen Machtkampf führen. Die syrische Regierung verurteilte zwar das Attentat, das staatliche Parteiblatt "Baath" kommentierte den Mord aber mit ominösen Zeilen: "Die Mörder wollten (...) die von der Hisbollah geforderte Aktion des Volkes behindern", schrieb die Zeitung, "um den unausweichlichen Sturz der libanesischen Regierung hinauszuzögern, die jede Legitimität verloren hat."
Vor dem Mord an Gemayel hätte der drohende Sturz der Regierung durch die Hisbollah Chaos und vielleicht Gewalt bedeutet. Nach dem Mord ist Gewalt und vielleicht ein Bürgerkrieg kaum noch zu vermeiden, wenn die Hisbollah die Macht an sich zu reißen versucht.

Segundo a polícia, as 19 pessoas trabalhavam em ruas, bares e escritórios da cidade. O grupo adulterava assinaturas de médicos e até de carimbos de hospitais.
Dezenove pessoas foram presas nesta quinta-feira (5) em São Paulo por suspeita de intermediar a falsificação e venda de atestados médicos. De acordo com a polícia, os criminosos ofereciam os documentos falsos para funcionários de empresas públicas e privadas do estado que pretendiam justificar faltas no trabalho, sem estar doentes de verdade.
Comandada pela Corregedoria-Geral da Administração, vinculada à Secretaria da Casa Civil do Estado, a operação durou todo o dia. As pessoas foram presas no Centro e na Zona Sul da capital. “Estavam na rua, em bares e em escritórios”, disse o delegado João Batista, da Corregedoria.
Segundo ele, a quadrilha falsificava assinaturas de médicos, números de registro profissional e até carimbos de hospitais. "Eles xerocavam, copiavam, furtavam documentos", contou o delegado, explicando como os criminosos conseguiam as informações.
Eles atuavam a serviço de gente que procurava uma desculpa para não ir ao trabalho. "Se a pessoa queria emendar o feriado de carnaval, pedia um atestado para a quinta e a sexta, alegando que estava com conjuntivite", disse Batista. Segundo ele, os falsificadores cobravam por dia de falta. Os preços variavam de R$ 20 a R$ 100.
A ousadia da quadrilha era tanta que, se o patrão desconfiasse do atestado, alguém estava pronto a confirmar que o funcionário estava doente. "Eles confirmavam a idoneidade do atestado. Se o patrão ligasse, atenderia uma pessoa dizendo que era do hopsital e que você esteve doente", informou o delegado.
Batista explicou que a operação foi pedida pelo governador José Serra no ano passado. "O governo começou a perceber que estava havendo falta de muitos funcionários (do serviço público)". Segundo ele, esta foi apenas uma primeira fase. "Agora, temos de identificar os funcionários públicos e privados que pediam os atestados porque isso prejudica alguém". Ele não soube informar se havia médicos de verdade envolvidos no esquema, fato que será investigado daqui para frente.
A assessoria de imprensa do Conselho Regional de Medicina de São Paulo (CRM-SP) informou que, enquanto não for comprovada a participação de médicos no esquema, o caso é apenas de polícia. Informou ainda que falsificação de atestados "é um caso comum" e que não há como controlar todos os grupos que atuam em falsificações.

Publicidade
Uma operação organizada pelo governo de São Paulo prendeu ontem na capital 19 pessoas sob suspeita de venda de atestados médicos falsos a servidores públicos. Segundo a gestão do governador José Serra (PSDB), a ação faz parte do plano que visa diminuir o absenteísmo (faltas) dos funcionários do Estado, considerado alto pelo próprio governo.
Os atestados são utilizados para que os dias faltados não sejam descontados e para evitar perdas em gratificações e benefícios na carreira, ocasionadas por ausências. Os preços cobrados variavam. Um dos grupos exigia R$ 20 por dia de licença do servidor público.
Os suspeitos foram presos no centro de São Paulo (em regiões como a praça da Sé e a rua 24 de maio) e na zona sul. Com eles, a polícia apreendeu blocos com receituários em branco, já com assinaturas de médicos -ou seja, prontos para a fraude. A Polícia Civil vai agora checar se as assinaturas são verdadeiras, o que indicaria participação dos médicos na fraude, ou se foram adulteradas pelos próprios suspeitos.
Os policiais também irão averiguar o vazamento dos receituários dos hospitais.
Indústria
Já a Corregedoria Geral da Administração, que também atuou na investigação, vai procurar identificar os servidores públicos que utilizaram atestados emitidos pelos médicos, para checar se houve fraude. "Há uma indústria de falsificação de atestados", afirmou Serra ontem, durante o lançamento de um projeto de educação ambiental.
"Estamos atrás do servidor que quer enganar o sistema", disse o delegado João Batista Palma Beolchi, da corregedoria -divisão do governo do Estado encarregada de fiscalizar os servidores públicos.
De acordo com o coronel Ararigboia Delecrodio, também da corregedoria, a maioria dos atestados são comprados pelo pessoal da Educação, maior categoria do Estado. Também há casos de funcionários do setor privado. Nos atestados apreendidos ontem, a maioria se referia a doenças que justificam ausências de até cinco dias, como gripe, febre e dores abdominais.
"Afastamentos maiores podem causar desconfiança", disse Delecrodio. Porém, durante os dois meses de investigação, a corregedoria também encontrou atestados suspeitos com prazos mais longos.
Segundo a corregedoria, os criminosos agiam de forma diferente. Alguns controlavam todo o esquema, ou seja, a mesma pessoa falsificava e vendia os atestados. Em outros casos, as atividades eram separadas.
Tentativa de redução
Desde 2007, o governo tenta reduzir as faltas dos servidores. Conforme a Folha informou em novembro, diariamente 12,8% dos docentes estaduais faltam às aulas. Uma das medidas adotadas foi limitar ausências para consultas médicas.
"O governo precisa perseguir periodicamente as irregularidades. Mas a maioria das faltas ocorrem pelas más condições de trabalho", disse o presidente da Apeoesp (sindicato dos professores), Carlos Ramiro.

Facebook accepte de répondre aux préoccupations de la commissaire à la protection de la vie privée
La commissaire à la protection de la vie privée du Canada considère que les changements proposés aux pratiques et politiques en matière de protection de la vie privée du site de réseautage social permettraient à Facebook de se conformer aux lois canadiennes.
OTTAWA, le 27 août 2009 — Facebook a accepté d’ajouter de nouvelles mesures de protection des renseignements personnels significatives et d’apporter d’autres modifications à la suite d’une enquête menée par la commissaire à la protection de la vie privée du Canada concernant les politiques et pratiques en matière de protection des renseignements personnels du populaire site de réseautage social.
La décision par la compagnie d’adopter les recommandations de la commissaire à la protection de la vie privée est une étape positive en vue de rendre Facebook conforme aux exigences de la loi canadienne sur la protection des renseignements personnels.
« En raison de ces changements, la vie privée des 200 millions d’utilisateurs de Facebook au Canada et à travers le monde sera beaucoup mieux protégée », affirme la commissaire à la protection de la vie privée, Jennifer Stoddart.
« Cela est extrêmement important. Les personnes pourront profiter des avantages du réseautage social sans avoir à renoncer au contrôle de leurs renseignements personnels. Nous sommes très heureux que Facebook ait répondu favorablement à nos recommandations. »
Le mois dernier, la commissaire à la protection de la vie privée publiait un rapport à l’issue d’une enquête approfondie en réponse à une plainte déposée par la Clinique d'intérêt public et de politique d'Internet du Canada.
Bien que Facebook ait pris des mesures pour résoudre certains problèmes liés à la protection de la vie privée, la commissaire demeurait insatisfaite de la réponse de la société au terme de l’enquête. Elle était particulièrement inquiète face aux risques suscités par le partage à outrance des renseignements personnels avec les tiers développeurs des applications Facebook telles les jeux et les questionnaires.
Facebook disposait de 30 jours pour réagir au rapport de la commissaire et expliquer comment elle allait répondre aux enjeux qui demeuraient en suspens. À la suite d’un examen de la réponse formelle de Facebook et de discussions avec les représentants de l’entreprise, la commissaire considère que Facebook est en bonne voie de combler les lacunes en matière de protection des renseignements personnels sur son site.
« Facebook promet d’effectuer des changements technologiques significatifs afin de corriger l’enjeu qui nous semblait être le risque le plus important pour les utilisateurs, soit la circulation relativement libre de renseignements personnels à plus d’un million de développeurs d’applications un peu partout à travers le monde », selon la commissaire adjointe Elizabeth Denham qui était responsable de l’enquête au nom du Commissariat.
« Les développeurs d’applications ont bénéficié d’un accès pratiquement sans bornes aux renseignements personnels des utilisateurs de Facebook. Les modifications que Facebook prévoit mettre en place permettront aux utilisateurs de contrôler le type de renseignements personnels accessibles par les applications. »
Un des problèmes généraux soulevés pendant l’enquête était que l’information fournie aux utilisateurs sur le respect de leur vie privée était souvent présentée de manière confuse ou incomplète.
Facebook a accepté d’apporter certains changements qui aideront les utilisateurs du site à mieux comprendre comment leurs renseignements personnels seront utilisés et, en bout de ligne, à prendre des décisions plus éclairées quant à la mesure dans laquelle ils souhaitent partager les renseignements en question. La commissaire a passé en revue ces améliorations et effectuera un suivi auprès de Facebook à mesure que les changements seront mis en œuvre.
Voici un survol des principaux enjeux soulevés dans le cadre de l’enquête, ainsi que les réponses de Facebook :
1. Tiers développeurs d’applications
Enjeu : Le partage de renseignements personnels avec des tiers développeurs qui créent des applications Facebook, comme des jeux et des questionnaires, comporte de sérieux risques en matière de protection de la vie privée. On retrouve plus d’un million de développeurs partout dans le monde; la commissaire était préoccupée par un manque de mesures de sécurité appropriées afin de limiter efficacement l’accès de ces développeurs aux renseignements personnels des utilisateurs et de leurs « amis » en ligne.
Réponse : Facebook a accepté de réajuster sa plateforme d’applications de manière à empêcher toute application d’avoir accès à des renseignements avant d’avoir obtenu un consentement exprès pour chaque catégorie de renseignements personnels visée. Dans le cadre de ce nouveau modèle fondé sur les permissions, les utilisateurs qui ajoutent une application seront avertis que l’application voudra accéder à des catégories d’information particulières. L’utilisateur pourra contrôler le droit d’accès de l’application par catégorie de renseignement. Il y aura également un lien vers une déclaration du développeur expliquant comment les renseignements seront utilisés.
Ce changement exigera des modifications technologiques significatives. Les développeurs qui se servent de la plateforme devront eux aussi adapter leurs applications et Facebook s’attend à ce que la mise en œuvre de l’ensemble du processus prenne une année.
2. Désactivation des comptes
Enjeu : L’information fournie par Facebook au sujet de la différence entre la désactivation d’un compte — selon laquelle les renseignements personnels sont conservés dans une mémoire numérique — et la suppression d’un compte — selon laquelle les renseignements personnels sont effectivement effacés des serveurs de Facebook — porte à confusion. De plus, Facebook devrait mettre en œuvre une politique de conservation en vertu de laquelle les renseignements personnels des utilisateurs qui ont désactivé leur compte seraient effacés des serveurs du site après une période raisonnable.
Réponse : Facebook a accepté d’informer clairement les utilisateurs qu’ils ont la possibilité de désactiver leur compte ou de supprimer leur compte. Cette distinction sera expliquée dans la politique de confidentialité de Facebook et les utilisateurs seront avisés de la possibilité d’effacer leur compte pendant le processus de désactivation.
Bien que nous ayons demandé une politique de conservation, nous avons considéré l’enjeu à nouveau et tenu compte des propositions faites par Facebook. Nous avons conclu que l’approche proposée par l’entreprise — soit de fournir des clarifications au sujet des options, d’offrir un choix clair et de dissiper la confusion — était acceptable, puisqu’elle permettra aux utilisateurs de prendre des décisions éclairées concernant la façon dont leurs renseignements personnels seront traités.
3. Renseignements personnels des non-utilisateurs
Enjeu : Facebook devrait mieux protéger la vie privée des non-utilisateurs qui sont invités à se joindre au site.
Réponse : Facebook a accepté d’ajouter plus de renseignements dans ses conditions d’utilisation. Facebook a confirmé qu’elle n’utilisait pas les adresses de courriel pour mesurer le succès de son service d’invitation et qu’elle ne conservait pas de liste d’adresses de courriel distincte à cette fin.
4. Comptes des utilisateurs décédés
Enjeu : Les personnes devraient disposer d’un moyen plus efficace pour donner un consentement valable à la mise en mode « commémoration » de leur compte après leur décès. Pour ce faire, Facebook doit clairement indiquer dans sa politique de confidentialité qu’elle laissera le profil de l’utilisateur en ligne après la mort de ce dernier afin que des amis puissent afficher des commentaires et lui rendre hommage.
Réponse : Facebook a accepté de modifier la formulation de sa politique de confidentialité pour expliquer ce qui se produira advenant le décès d’un utilisateur.
Facebook s’est engagée à respecter un échéancier pour la mise en œuvre de tous les changements, dont certains, comme ceux portant sur les applications de tiers, sont complexes sur le plan technologique. L’entreprise a déjà commencé à apporter des modifications et nous prévoyons que l’ensemble du processus sera terminé en l’espace d’un an.
« Il relève maintenant de Facebook de nous démontrer qu’elle respecte ses engagements », affirme la commissaire adjointe Denham.
« Avec la conclusion de l’enquête sur Facebook, le Commissariat a émis des attentes claires sur la façon dont les sites de réseautage social doivent protéger les renseignements personnels. Les autres sites devraient prendre note — et prendre les mesures qui s’imposent pour s’assurer d’être conformes aux lois canadiennes. »
Les déclarations de la commissaire et de la commissaire adjointe sont disponibles sur le site Web du Commissariat.
Le Parlement a confié à la commissaire à la protection de la vie privée du Canada le mandat d’agir à tire d’ombudsman, de défenseure et de gardienne du droit à la vie privée et à la protection des renseignements personnels de la population canadienne.

Un récent communiqué de presse du Commissariat à la protection de la vie privée du Canada stipule que Facebook, 3 site le plus visité au monde selon Alexa Internet, devra adopter les quatre recommandations de la commissaire à la protection de la vie privée du Canada Jennifer Stoddart. Les changements que fera le site rendront celui-ci plus conforme aux lois canadiennes en matière de vie privée.
, affirme la commissaire à la protection de la vie privée, Jennifer Stoddart.
Le mois dernier, un premier communiqué rapporte que Facebook ne respecte pas les lois canadiennes sur la protection de la vie privée. À la suite de ce rapport, Facebook a pris certaines mesures afin de se conformer à la loi canadienne, mais elles n'ont pas satisfait la commissaire.
Un mois plus tard, Facebook promet d'effectuer de nouveaux changements. , selon la commissaire adjointe Elizabeth Denham qui était responsable de l'enquête au nom du Commissariat.
Les quatre mesures concerneront l'accès aux données personnels pour les tiers développeurs d'applications, la désactivation et suppression des comptes, les renseignements personnels des non-inscrits et les comptes des utilisateurs décédés.

SUPER COMBINE BEAVER CREEK - COUPE DU MONDE
Le classement final :
1. Daniel Albrecht (SUI) - 2:00.26 - Son slalom EN VIDEO
2. Jean-Baptiste Grange (FRA) - 2:00.93 (+0.67) - Son slalom EN VIDEO
3. Ondrej Bank (RTC) - 2:01.23 (+0.97) - Son slalom EN VIDEO
Sensationnel ! Trente-sixième de la descente disputée un peu plus tôt, mais parti en 29e position lors du slalom, Jean-Baptiste Grange a rayonné entre les piquets pour terminer deuxième du Super-Combiné de Beaver Creek. Grâce à cet exploit, le skieur de Valloire, qui a mis plus d'une seconde aux meilleurs, signe son premier podium en Coupe du monde. Ses meilleurs résultats restaient deux quatrièmes places en slalom, l'une à Kranjska Gora la saison dernière, et l'autre, il y a trois semaines à Reiteralm pour l'ouverture de la saison entre les piquets.
"C'est génial. Je fais un bon début de saison. Tout va bien. Lors de l'entraînement de la descente, j'avais un peu peur, mais je savais que je pouvais bien faire sur cette piste. Elle est raide, difficile et plutôt technique. Et moi, je suis technique. C'est bien, j'ai su en profiter", s'est réjoui celui qui offre son premier podium à l'équipe de France. Et de rajouter : "Cela me permet d'aborder la saison de bonne manière et avec beaucoup de confiance".
L'épreuve a été remportée par un spécialiste. Champion du monde en titre de la discipline, Daniel Albrecht n'a pas tremblé au moment de conclure sur la Birds of Prey de Beaver Creek. Le Suisse, quatrième temps de la descente, n'a eu qu'à gérer lors du slalom. Le skieur helvète s'est imposé de 67 centièmes devant "J-B" Grange. C'était d'ailleurs le soir des premières de l'autre côté des Alpes puisqu'Albrecht décroche, à 24 ans, sa première victoire en Coupe du monde. Le podium est complété par le remuant Tchèque Ondrej Bank, auteur d'une manche de slalom remarquable, qui termine à près d'une seconde d'Albrecht (+0.97).
La déception Raich
Devant un public acquis à sa cause, Bode Miller s'est quelque peu rassuré après un début de Coupe du monde tout en retenue. Cinquième temps de la descente, le skieur du New Hampshire a enfin été à l'arrivée d'un slalom et a pris la quatrième place finale. Loin devant l'Autrichien Benjamin Raich néanmoins. Désormais favori au gros globe de cristal, après la grave blessure d'Aksel Lund Svindal, l'Autrichien a paru crispé au moment de s'élancer quelques mètres en-dessous du saut Golden Eagle, point de départ de cette manche de slalom.
Auteur d'une faute d'intérieur majuscule en début de tracé, le skieur de Pitzal, 17e de la descente, a été contraint de s'arrêter avant de repartir, laissant ses espoirs de victoire finale sur les bords de la Birds of Prey. Raich a terminé à une anecdotique 32e place, laissant les points à la concurrence. Une course à oublier pour celui qui tentera de se reprendre dimanche lors du géant.
Le classement après la descente :
1. Didier Cuche (SUI) - 1:13.50 - Sa descente EN VIDEO
2. Steven Nyman (EU) - 1:13.70 (+0.20) - Sa descente EN VIDEO
3. Marco Buechel (LIE) - 1:13.73 (+0.23) - Sa descente EN VIDEO

Aseguran que ahora sí, van por los culpables de la tragedía Desde el 23 de abril, dice el subprocurador de Control Regional, Procedimientos Penales y Amparo de la PGR, se abre esa nueva averiguación
CIUDAD DE MÉXICO (05/JUN/2013).- Renato Sales Heredia, quien apenas ayer fue nombrado subprocurador de Control Regional, Procedimientos Penales y Amparo de la Procuraduría General de la República (PGR), anunció hoy, cuando se cumplen 4 años de la tragedia de la Guardería ABC, que se hará “una investigación de la investigación” del caso.
Desde el 23 de abril, dijo, se abrió esa nueva averiguación.
En entrevista para MVS con Carmen Aristegui, el funcionario afirmó que “la instrucción del señor Procurador [Jesús Murillo Karam] es investigar la investigación, rehacer la investigación, ir de principio a fin”.
Entre los dictámenes que se revisarán destaca el del perito estadounidense que es el que concluyó que el incendio de la guardería fue provocado.
“Lo menos que podemos hacer por los familiares de las víctimas es investigar profunda y exhaustivamente”, expuso Sales Heredia.
También dijo que “se esclarecerán los hechos para sancionar a culpables, pero también para proteger a inocentes”.
El Subprocurador comentó que revisarán incluso hasta qué punto hay omisiones de funcionarios involucrados y si se debe ejercer acción penal contra ellos.
“Tenemos que aclarar lo que ha pasado, cómo se manejó”, añadió.
Entre las investigaciones que se están haciendo, se solicitará a las instancias correspondientes que se especifique qué documentos había en la bodega contigua, donde habría comenzado el siniestro, pues una hipótesis es que se quemaron esos documentos por funcionarios cercanos al ex Gobernador priista Eduardo Bours Castelo para destruir documentación relacionada con la deuda de 10 mil millones de pesos del programa Plan Sonora Proyecta.
Manifestación contra la impunidad
Un grupo de manifestantes marchó la tarde-noche de ayer de la oficinas del Instituo Mexicano del Seguro Social (IMSS), en la Ciudad de México, al Ángel de la Independencia, para reclamar justicia y denunciar la impunidad a cuatro años de que un incendio en la Guardería ABC de Hermosillo, Sonora, acabara con la vida de 49 niños.
Los manifestantes, integrantes de diversas organizaciones y familiares de las víctimas, reclaman que durante todo este periodo ninguno de los involucrados de primer nivel, como Juan Molinar Horcasitas, o los parientes de la ex Primera Dama, Margarita Zavala, hayan pagado por este crimen.
Molinar Horcasitas es actualmente un alto funcionario del Partido Acción Nacional (PAN), mientras que Zavala de Calderón, esposa del ex Presidente Felipe Calderón Hinojosa, es mencionada como una de los posibles candidatos a dirigir ese instituto político.
Los manifestantes permanecieron hasta las primeras horas de hoy en el Ángel de la Independencia.
El grupo arribó a las 16:00 horas a la sede central del IMSS, donde colocaron las fotos de las 25 niñas y los 24 niños que perecieron en el siniestro. Tres horas después el contingente partió, para arribar alrededor de las 20:00 horas al Ángel.
En Hermosillo, las organizaciones de padres de familia iniciaron desde el domingo una serie de eventos para recordar a sus hijos, que culminarán este miércoles con movilizaciones a nivel local y nacional.
Ayer en la noche, los familiares de los niños también realizan una velada en las instalaciones de la Guardería ABC, en la calle Mecánicos y Periférico Sur, colonia Emiliano Zapata en el estado de Sonora.
Por redes sociales, los padres y familiares de los pequeños han invitaado a participar en los eventos que tienen programados, entre los que destacan la #MarchaSolenmedelos49 de mañana a la que se han sumado 69 miembros de la comunidad artística, entre otras organizaciones civiles.
Dos centenares de familiares y manifestantes colocaron al pie del Ángel de la Independencia las fotos de los 49 niños que murieron en la Guardería ABC. Encendieron veladoras y dieron lectura de cada uno de los nombres de las víctimas, mientras los asistentes gritaron: “¡No debió morir!”.
Las familias realizan un evento en el que predomina el silencio. Las pancartas dicen, por ejemplo:
“Los hijos de Hermosillo también son nuestros hijos”.
“Guardería ABC, castigo a los responsables”.
“49 peques ABC”.

La (PGR) ha informado que está abierta una nueva investigación sobre el en donde una de las líneas de investigación es la posibilidad de un incendio provocado tal como lo denunciaron los padres de niños sobrevivientes.
El recién nombrado subprocurador de Control Regional, Procedimientos Penales y Amparo de la PGR declaró que hay “una investigación de la investigación“ por instrucciones de el Procurador Jesús Murillo Karam y “se esclarecerán los hechos para sancionar a culpables, pero también para proteger a inocentes“.
Este 5 de junio en que se cumple el cuarto aniversario luctuoso de los 49 niños que fallecieron en Sonora se efectuó un marcha desde el Ángel de la Independencia, donde estaban realizando una vigilia, hacia el Zócalo en donde se proyectó el documental ''ABC nunca más''.

CIUDAD DE MÉXICO, 6 de junio.- La quema intencional de papelería relacionada con un fideicomiso que administraba el gobierno de Sonora, entonces a cargo de Eduardo Bours Castelo, es la nueva línea de investigación para esclarecer el incendio de la Guardería ABC, en el que hace cuatro años murieron 49 menores y más de 70 resultaron lesionados.
Renato Sales Heredia, subprocurador de Control Regional, Procedimientos Penales y Amparo de la Procuraduría General de la República, indicó que ya se comenzó a solicitar la información relacionada con esas cuentas que integraron el plan Sonora Proyecta.
“Se va a investigar todo lo que tenga que ver con este fideicomiso, de hecho se han solicitado ya informes a la Secretaría de Finanzas del Gobierno del estado, estamos esperando alguna documentación.
“Acudiremos a revisar, vamos a buscar indicios vinculados a la presencia de este fideicomiso, documentación, si algo permanece y cómo se manejó ese dinero”, dijo el recién nombrado subprocurador de la PGR.
El pasado 23 de abril, el abogado Gabriel Alvarado Serrano, representante de los padres de los menores sobrevivientes de la Guardería ABC, de la agrupación Manos Unidas por Nuestros Hijos, presentó una denuncia con las sospechas del incendio provocado en la bodega contratada por la Secretaría de Finanzas de la entidad.
Se argumentó que la quema de la documentación pretendió ocultar el desvío de más de diez mil millones de pesos, del fideicomiso de obras plan Sonora Proyecta.
En la denuncia se mencionó, incluso, el asesinato de una de las personas que presuntamente participaron en la quema de la documentación, identificada como Carlos Andrés López Meza, lo que también será investigado, dijo el subprocurador Sales Heredia.
“Esto tiene que ver específicamente con esta nueva línea de investigación, esto que se comenta. El homicidio doloso cometido en contra de una persona cercana al ex secretario técnico del ex gobernador (Juan Carlos Lam Félix), cometido en agosto de 2009 hasta con nueve disparos de arma de fuego.
“A eso me refiero cuando digo que vamos a revisar exhaustivamente la investigación y también lo que no se investigó”, afirmó.
A partir de la denuncia presentada por el abogado Alvarado Serrano, la PGR abrió la averiguación previa en la Zona Norte 19/2013.
Actuaciones
Renato Sales indicó que por indicaciones del procurador general de la República, Jesús Murillo Karam, se revisarán todas las actuaciones que en 2009 realizó la PGR sobre el incendio en la Guardería ABC.
Indicó que por respeto a la memoria de las niñas y niños fallecidos, de los heridos, de los sobrevivientes y de los padres de familia, las autoridades federales harán todas las investigaciones para aclarar los hechos ocurridos hace cuatro años en Hermosillo.
“Revisar, revisar es cotejar los peritajes, ver la declaraciones, ver si hace falta una diligencia por realizar.”
Afirmó que en el caso hay 22 personas sujetas a proceso penal, de las cuales solo una, Eréndira Botello, delegada del IMSS en Sonora, permanece en prisión preventiva.
Persiste el luto en Hermosillo
A cuatro años de luto y lucha, “!Ni perdón ni olvido!” fue el clamor de miles de ciudadanos que por enésima vez marcharon por las calles de la capital de Sonora para manifestar su repudio ante la falta de justicia en el caso de la Guardería ABC.
Los actos conmemorativos por el cuarto aniversario iniciaron la noche del martes con una vigilia y acto ecuménico a las afueras de la estancia infantil siniestrada el 5 de junio de 2009.
La mañana del 5 de junio arrancó con dos misas, una en la Guardería ABC y otra en la Iglesia San José, ofrecidas por padres de las víctimas de los grupos Manos Unidas por Nuestros Niños y Movimiento por la Justicia 5 de Junio, respectivamente.
Nuevamente desde las ruinas de la Guardería ABC, en punto de las 18:00 horas, partió un contingente de unos cinco mil ciudadanos integrado por familiares de las víctimas como tíos, abuelos y primos; además de clubes de ciclistas y motociclistas, zanqueros, malabaristas, payasos y músicos.
Al frente de la marcha iba una manta con la leyenda “Justicia ABC” y 49 niños con fotos en blanco y negro de los caídos.
Los manifestantes arribaron a las escalinatas del museo de la Universidad de Sonora donde se llevó a cabo un mitin que inicio con el pase de lista de las víctimas.
Urgen a atender el caso
Julio César Márquez, padre del pequeño Julio César Márquez Báez Yeyé, quien con sólo dos años ocho meses de edad perdiera la vida junto a otros 48 menores, en el incendio de la Guardería ABC de Hermosillo, Sonora, acusó al presidente Enrique Peña Nieto de fallar con el compromiso que firmó cuando andaba en campaña ante padres de familia de las pequeñas víctimas, de “investigar el caso y sentenciar a los responsables”.
Lamentó el también vocero del Movimiento por la Justicia 5 de Junio, integrada por padres de las víctimas, que a seis meses de gobierno federal el caso sigue igual, sin solución, mientras los responsables gozan en libertad.
Entrevistado por Martín Espinosa, para Grupo Imagen Multimedia, el padre de Yeyé dijo que la investigación en la actual administración “no puede ser peor que con Felipe Calderón”, pero urgió al actual Ejecutivo federal a “atender el caso, para que finalmente se alcance la justicia”.
Dijo que hace más de un mes el movimiento que representa solicitó al presidente Peña Nieto una reunión para conocer el estatus de la investigación, pero a la fecha no han tenido respuesta.
Detalló que “la semana pasada el nuevo titular del IMSS, José Antonio González Anaya, visitó la zona de la tragedia, pero apareció más para la foto, que para resolver el tema”.
“Siempre ha sido parte de la estrategia del gobierno: cuando hay fechas importantes dan señales como si estuvieran haciendo algo, pero realmente seguimos igual”, lamentó, al detallar que a la fecha sólo la coordinadora zonal del IMSS en Sonora, Delia Irene Botella Amante, está detenida, “pero no sentenciada y está presa porque no ha podido pagar la fianza”.
El resto de los implicados, como son el director general de Recaudación de la Secretaría de Hacienda estatal, Fausto Salazar Gómez; Jorge Melchor Isla, ex director de Control Vehicular de la misma Secretaría de Hacienda, y Jesús Davis Osuna, ex director de Inspección y Vigilancia del Ayuntamiento de Hermosillo, enfrentan el proceso en libertad por el pago de una fianza millonaria.
Mientras, ironizó Márquez Ortiz, Marcia Matilde Gómez del Campo, socia fundadora de la guardería y prima de Margarita Zavala fue absuelta del proceso penal por la muerte de 49 menores, en diciembre de 2011, por “no ser encontrada como responsable de la seguridad de los menores”, recalcó.
Márquez reconoció que a cuatro años de la tragedia, “nos encontramos emocionalmente muy cansados”.
“No podemos esperar nada de partidos”
Abraham Fraijo, curtido por cuatro años de frustraciones, ya poco cree en la justicia mexicana. Estuvo ayer al pie del Ángel de la Independencia de la Ciudad de México para encabezar una manifestación para recordar a los 49 niños que murieron en la Guardería ABC de Hermosillo el 5 de junio de 2009. Emilia, su hija, fue una de las víctimas.
Fueron cientos de personas que participaron en la protesta contra lo que calificaron como impunidad en el caso, del que no hay un solo responsable.
La manifestación inició a las 17:50 horas. Partió del Ángel de la Independencia y se dirigió al Zócalo a través del Paseo de la Reforma.
De acuerdo con Abraham Fraijo, las nuevas líneas de investigación que abrirá la Procuraduría General de Justicia sobre el caso serán seguidas con atención por los familiares de los infantes fallecidos.
“No podemos creer en nada. No puedo esperar nada de ningún partido. Estamos en el país donde no pasa nada. En otro país, un caso así hubiera tirado gobiernos, pero en México no pasó nada”, dijo Fraijo antes de iniciar la caminata.
“México está condenado. Un país que no puede cuidar a sus hijos está condenado”, recalcó Fraijo con la voz entrecortada.
La manifestación transcurrió en silencio, con 49 banderas rosas y celestes enarboladas, una por cada niño fallecido.
Actores y actrices, junto con voluntarios cargaron las fotografías en gran formato de los niños que murieron en el incendio del 5 de junio de 2009.
La marcha fue lenta, los integrantes marchaban siguiendo el ritmo de un tambor. El activista Daniel Gerhenson gritaba el nombre de uno de los niños muertos, y los manifestantes respondían gritando “No debió morir”.
Ya en el Zócalo, tras colocar banderas y fotos en el piso, se presentó el documental ABC Nunca Más, del director Pedro Ultreras, en el que se relata la tragedia y la lucha de los padres de las víctimas, y de los 75 niños sobrevivientes que han sufrido operaciones reconstructivas, terapias de rehabilitación y sicológicas.
Familia tiene una renovada esperanza
Cuatro años han pasado y aún es difícil para las parejas que perdieron a un hijo en el incendio de la Guardería ABC superar el recuerdo de aquel 5 de junio de 2009.
“Era viernes y nosotros por lo general la llevábamos un viernes sí y un viernes no; ese viernes a ella no le tocaba ir, sin embargo decidimos llevarla porque era día de vacunación y entonces decidimos que ella fuera por ese motivo. Los dos estábamos trabajando y cuando recibimos la noticia mi esposo iba apenas en camino a recogerla”, recordó Julia Escalante, madre de la niña Fátima Sofía.
A cuatro años de aquel 5 de junio, la alegría de un nuevo embarazo llena de esperanza a la familia Moreno Escalante, quienes saben que próximamente tendrán en sus brazos a otra niña.
“Nos llena de alegría pero también mucha responsabilidad, mucha responsabilidad, y sobre todo ilusión”, dijo.

Brian (25), de La Matanza, fue el primer participante en ingresar a la casa de Gran Hermano 2015. En el casting el muchacho contó que deseaba entrar para poder ayudar a su familia.
"Vivo con mi mamá y mi hermano discapacitado, mi papá nos abandonó. Cuando era chico me llevaba a robar. Llegaba a mi casa drogado y nos golpeaba", afirmó. Además, Brian relató que tuvo un hijo con una ex pareja pero no sabe si realmente es el padre biológico del niño. Ella no accede a que me haga un ADN", reveló.

Luego, fue el turno de Belén (22), una modelo y diseñadora. "A veces parezco que soy un poco distraída, pero si me pongo a hablar seriamente me dicen 'me sorprendiste'. Adentro de la casa me puede llegar a molestar mucha careteada", sostuvo la joven en el casting.

Nicolás (26), de Santiago del Estero, fue el tercero en ingresar. "Trabajo en un boliche. Soy boxeador. De chico siempre he tenido todo. El que entra con una historia de vida a hacerse el pobrecito, es débil. Quiero que la gente se enamore de mi", expresó al narrar su pasado.

Más tarde, Nadia (31), de Carlos Casares, pisó la casa. "Tengo un hijo, soy soltera. A los 19 años me puse de novia con un chico que es corredor, cuando se enteró que estaba embarazada no quiso saber nada. Me convenció para viajar. Paramos en Bolívar para tomar algo. Me desperté en Mar del Plata con gasas y algodón. Había abortado".

Mariano (30), de Córdoba, fue el quinto "hermanito". Es empresario y obsesivo de la estética y el cuidado personal. "Mi fetiche es la ropa interior. Defiendo mucho lo que es mi opinión.

Fernando (35), de Ramos Mejía, fue el séptimo concursante. "Buscando mi rumbo me fui a viajar por el mundo. Debe ser muy difícil que un ingeniero quiera entrar a la casa de Gran hermano.

Romina (20), Mar del Plata, reveló en su casting: "Hace cuatro años entraron a robar a mi casa y pienso que a esas personas hay que matarlas, no me gusta que me digan lo que tengo que hacer y que me hablen mal".

MATIAS.mp4
Solano (24), de Catamarca, ingresó al reality con ideas muy claras: "Me saca la mala educación, los malos modales. Soy extrovertido. Estoy todo el tiempo arriba. No paro de hablar. La opinión del resto no me perjudica. Me saca la gente ordinaria".
SOLANO.mp4
María Paz, (29), de Mar del Plata, fue la siguiente en cruzar las puertas de la casa. "Siempre viví dentro de la religión adventista. Como no está permitido tener relaciones antes del casamiento dejé la religión y empecé hacer todo lo que no podía y me llamaron para posar para Playboy. En mi casa siempre estoy en bolas y en Gran Hermano voy a ser como soy en mi casa", relató la joven.
MARIA PAZ.mp4
Eloy (20), de Burzaco, previo a su ingreso, manifestó: "Fui varias veces tendencia en Twitter. Tengo 500 mil seguidores. Sé cómo tratar a una mujer, toda la psicología femenina. Lo primero que quiero hacer es conocer a las chicas. Nací para estar en la televisión, para ser un mediático".

Camila (27), de Ramos Mejía, narró: "A los 15 años con mi hermana gemela nos escapamos de casa para ir a un cyber y cuando volvíamos nos cruzamos con un tipo. Nos agarró a las dos, nos llevó a una calle cerca de las vías del tren y nos violó".

De movida la intención del canal era que el reality durara 4 meses, es decir, desde el 29 de abril hasta mediados o fines de agosto. Sin embargo, si continúan las reglas actuales, el programa podría termina en octubre, esto es casi 6 meses después del debut.
En la primera gala ingresaron a Gran Hermano 15 participantes. A los 14 que habían anunciado se les sumó Francisco Delgado, que saltó a la fama algunas semanas antes por ser el supuesto padre del hijo de Gisela Bernal.
A la semana del comienzo del reality los "hermanitos" debieron nominar y 7 días después, esta noche, se conocerá quién fue el elegido de la la gente para ser el primer eliminado. A partir de esta medianoche quedarán 14 participantes en la casa.
Si tomáramos este esquema, el 27 de mayo se iría el segundo hermanito. El tercero se marcharía el 10 de junio, el cuarto el 24 del mismo mes, el quinto 8 de julio y el sexto el 22. Allí quedarían 9 participantes.
El miércoles 5 de agosto partiría el séptimo, mientras que el 19 se iría el octavo. En septiembre habría tres eliminados: el noveno el 2, el décimo el 16 y el undécimo el 30. A partir de allí quedarían los cuatro finalistas.
En octubre sería la gran final. Allí la producción decidirá cómo quiere llevarla a cabo. Una posibilidad es que se elimine a uno o incluso a dos, como ocurrió en algunas ediciones anteriores, o dejar a los 4 hasta la última emisión, como sucedió en el último GH.
Así, si no se cambiara el sistema de nominaciones, el ganador podría conocerse el 7 de octubre, el 14 o hasta el 21, si deciden que finalmente queden solo dos finalistas en la casa. Porque si bien el reality tiene su "Biblia", la producción puede ir cambiando ciertos puntos del reglamento para que el programa sea más interesante y/o rendidor, ¿Nominarán el mismo día de la expulsión?, ¿sacarán a más de un participante por gala?. Habrá que estar atentos, porque puede pasar algo de todo esto.
realizó una gran apuesta con la nueva edición deque, por primera vez se realiza para ese canal.

Con la conducción de Jorge Rial, comenzó anoche "Gran Hermano 2015", el famoso reality show que por primera vez se emite en el canal América. Tras destacar que trabajan 200 personas para el ciclo, Rial dio paso a las imágenes de la casa donde entrarían los 14 participantes elegidos para competir. Patio interno, sauna, jacuzzi, cocina, living, gimnasio y todo lo necesario para albergar a los hermanitos, la casa se fue poblando de figuras de la emisora. Allí se vieron a Pamela David, quien conducirá El Debate, Marcelo Polino, Santiago Del Moro, Tamara Pettinato, Marina Calabró, Luis Majul, Antonio Laje. Como es ley en "Gran Hermano", no podía faltar "el confesionario". Allí, junto a Rodrigo Lussich, estuvo Mauro Viale.
"Hermanitos de América, todos al living", convocó Rial, desde el estudio, a las figuras del canal que estaban dentro de la casa y entabló un diálogo con ellos. "Los chicos sólo van a tener agua caliente durante 20 minutos por día", les comentó Rial. "Yo no aguanto un segundo", saltó Luis Majul. "Luis, estás sintiendo lo que sentimos nosotros cuando nos llamás para ir a tu programa", le disparó Rial.
Al cabo de un rato, Jorge Rial les dijo a sus colegas de América: "Deben abandonar ya la casa". "Ahora van a venir los participantes, quienes superaron (en el casting) la barrera de más de 30.000 chicos". Jorge Rial comenzó a crear suspenso en torno a una valija, idéntica a la que se les entregó a los participantes, y que estaba en medio del estudio.
El primer participante en entrar a la casa fue Brian. "Tiene una vida muy dura -dijo Rial-. Tuvo que salir a robar, sin embargo, se repuso, participó y quiere entrar a la casa para contar su historia y conocer a un hijo que cree que tiene". "Quiero cambiar mi vida y puede ser que tenga un hijo, pero no lo sé porque la madre no me permite hacerme un ADN". No bien entró a la casa, Brian exclamó: "¡Esto está re cheto, loco!". Enseguida cantó: "¡Que se pudra, que se pudra....!".
Luego, fue el turno de Belén , de 22 años, quien dice trabajar como modelo y haber empezado un proyecto de diseño de indumentaria. "La gente dice que soy medio hueca", manifestó al tiempo que dijo esperar que "haya chicos lindos". "Está prácticamente desnuda", destacó Rodrigo Lussich mientras ella posaba para los fotógrafos en el instante previo a entrar a la casa. "Estoy dispuesta a todo para divertirme", aseguró ella.
Nicolás nació en Santiago Del Estero, tiene 26 años y es boxeador. "Entre otras cosas, dice que quiere pelear con Maravilla Martínez y que le va a ganar", anticipó Rial para presentar al tercer participante en ingresar a la casa. "Soy enamoradizo, me engancho rápido. Si tengo que acostarme con alguien para ganar, dénlo por hecho", declaró Nicolás.
Jorge Rial dio paso a la cuarta participante diciendo "su historia de vida es muy fuerte". Se llama Nadia, es de Carlos Casares, tiene 31 años y un hijo de 7 años. "Soy soltera. A los 19 años me puse de novia, cuando quedé embarazada, no quiso saber nada", contó, entre lágrimas, en el video de presentación.
A Mariano, el siguiente participante, Rial lo describió como "excéntrico, metrosexual, le gusta demostrar todo lo que tiene". "Tengo una vida sexual muy activa -dijo Mariano, oriundo de Córdoba-. No voy a aguantar todos los meses que dura el programa". E insistió varias veces con la necesidad de seguir con su entrenamiento en el gimnasio para no perder el estado físico.
Mientras tanto, Alejandro Fantino tuiteaba

Sinceridad total en Twitter.
Por su parte, Jorge Rial mostraba "el cuarto rojo" un sitio de la casa donde los participantes recibirán sorpresas agradables o desagradables.
Valeria, de 30 años fue la sexta en entrar a la casa. Porteña, cuenta: "Nací varón e hice un camino para ser quien quiero ser. El desafío de entrar a la casa es en parte para mostrar quién soy". Además, contó que tiene diferentes trabajos: camarera, trabajadora social, paseadora de perros.
Fernando, el séptimo en entrar, se prsentó como ingeniero industrial, contó que tiene 35 años, habla 5 idiomas, que le gusta viajar y que lleva recorridos 32 países. Manifestó que está de novio y que piensa ser fiel a su pareja durante los meses de encierro. "Tengo mucha voluntad", aseguró.
A Romina, Jorge Rial la presentó diciendo: "Tiene 20 años y la filosofía de Susana Giménez cuando dijo 'el que roba tiene q morir'". Aunque, a decir verdad, aquella polémica frase de Susana fue "El que mata tiene que morir". La participante dijo que es modelo, oriunda de Mar del Plata, que le gustan los autos y que quiere que mueran las personas que robaron en su casa. Hubo un imprevisto: cuando iba ingresar a la casa, Rial la frenó y le dijo esperara.
Enseguida, presentó a Marian García Farjat, de 20 años. "Amo jugar al hockey y andar en rollers. Me gusta salir a bailar. Me gusta chaparme chicos todos los fines de semana. ¿A quién no le gusta el sexo? Soy open mind. Me van a tratar de rapidita en la casa". Contó también que llevó un disfraz a la casa y aseguró que se lo va a poner. Admitió ser "chica de country". Rodrigo Lussich si era cierto que circula un video hot de ella. La participante no afirmó ni negó el hecho; prefirió jugar al suspenso y aseguró que no teme tener sexo en el ciclo. Las amigas de Marian aceptaron haber visto el mencionado video de la muchacha que juegó, de entrada, el juego del desprejuicio. Al momento de entrar, la acompañó Romina, la participante a la que Rial hizo esperar para su ingreso.
Desde Misiones, llegó Matíasm de 19 años, quien dijo estar soltero. "Soy romántico y para la primera vez, estoy esperando a la chica ideal", declaró. Y a la hora de las preguntas, sostuvo que no tendría problema en perder la virginidad en la casa de "Gran Hermano".
Solano, de 24 años, vive en Capital, pero es de Catamarca. Dice que en su provincia, la sociedad se divide entre los que "son alguien y los que no"; y que él, pertenece a los primeros. Trabaja como diseñador de indumentaria y maquillador. "Es soberbio e irritante", lo definió Jorge Rial. "Quiero ser yo; ser lo que soy y nada más", declaró al entrar a la casa. "Mi meta es ser un profesional de la moda", añadió.
De 29 años, marplatense, modelo e instrumentadora quirurgica, María Paz contó que fue criada en el respeto a la religión adventista, "pero me sentí presionada porque exige no beber, no tener relaciones sexuales antes de casarse, no fumar.... Yo la dejé e hice todo lo que estaba prohibido".
"Tiene 20 años, es soltero por elección y tiene 500.000 seguidores en Twitter", dijo Jorge Rial para presentar a Eloy. Y el propio Eloy, dijo: "Sé cómo tratar a una mujer, conozco la psicología femenina. Nunca le digas tus verdaderas intenciones. Nací para estar en la televisión, para ser un mediático". "Aquí la voy a pasar bien y voy a olvidarme de todo lo que sea redes sociales", prometió. A Eloy, lo hicieron esperar un ratito antes de ingresar a la casa. Mientras, Jorge Rial dio paso a Camila. Es de Ramos Mejía, tiene 27 años, una hermana gemela y un novio. La joven contó que fue víctima de una violación. "Quiero contar mis historias para que la conozcan otras chicas", dijo. Junto a Eloy, Camila entró a la casa donde se desarrolla el reality.
Una vez que los 14 participantes del reality estuvieron en la casa, Rial se comunicó con ellos. Reunidos en el living, hablaron con el conductor a quien vieron en la pantalla del televisor. A Romina, el conductor le pasó un video donde ella decía: "No le tengo miedo a Jorge Rial ni a sus amenazas". "¿Qué es eso?", le preguntó Rial. "Bueno, lo dije en el buen sentido", fue la respuesta incomprensible de la participante. Después, terminaron bromeando.
Terminado el primer contacto entre el estudio y la casa, Jorge Rial anunció la gran sorpresa de la noche, aquella con la que creo suspenso durante toda la emisión. Se trató del ingreso del participante número 15. "Es parte de una novela con protagonistas famosos", adelantó el conductor. "¿Se atreverá a contar todo en la casa?", fue su pregunta retórica. El participante en cuestión es Francisco Manuel Delgado, que fue aludido en el conflicto entre Gisela Bernal y Ariel Diwan. "Tengo 29 años, soy de Río Negro -se presentó-. Soy profesor de Educación Físca. En Ecuador hago un programa de aventuras. Se dijeron muchas calumnias e injurias sobre mi persona". Además, señaló: "Se me atribuye una paternidad que..., no sé. Se me difamó muchísimo".
"¡Va a contar la verdad! ¿Tendremos un ADN en vivo?", se entusiasmó Jorge Rial, mientras Delgado ingresaba a la casa.
"Estoy supuestamente involucrado en la paternidad del hijo de Gisela Bernal", les explicó Delgado a los demás participantes y añadió: "No me asusta hacerme un ADN". "Yo voy a ser papá en julio y aparte, que esta paternidad pueda ser real... con tanta gente que quiere tener hijos", siguió diciendo, cuando las cámaras pasaron a enfocar a Jorge Rial dentro del "cuarto rojo", el de las sorpresas. Quien se atrevió a entrar fue Camila. El conductor le mostró dos sobres: uno le daría inmunidad y el otro la dejaría nominada. Ella tuvo que elegir. El resultado: obtuvo inmunidad. Así se despidió Rial de la primera gala de "Gran Hermano" y América dejó la transmisión de la casa en vivo hasta las 6 de la mañana.

Le Centre Air Canada où les Maple Leafs ont battu les Canadiens ce jeudi
Ce jeudi, les Canadiens de Montréal jouaient leur premier match de la saison régulière 2010-2011 de la Ligue nationale de hockey (LNH) en affrontant les Maple Leafs de Toronto au Centre Air Canada de Toronto. La saison dernière, les Maple Leafs avaient débuté la saison avec une série de huit défaites consécutives. Cette année, ils débutent la saison avec une victoire aux dépends des Canadiens par la marque de 3 à 2. Le manque de grands joueurs des Habs peut expliquer cette défaite. En effet, w:Michael Cammalleri, Andreï Markov et Roman Hamrlík étaient tous absents pour cette première partie de la saison. Jacques Martin, l'entraîneur du Tricolore, refuse d'accepter cette excuse pour explique l'issue de la rencontre en déclarant que « ça fait partie des situations à gérer pour une équipe et ça donne l’occasion à d’autres joueurs de se démarquer ».

Leafs edge Habs in opener
– The Toronto Maple Leafs may have gotten off on the right foot after starting last season on eight wrong ones, but coach Ron Wilson wants to make sure things remain in proper perspective for his young squad.The Leafs accomplished in a single game what took them nine tries last year, getting their first win of the season with a 3-2 victory Thursday night over the Montreal Canadiens "It's one game, we're not going to get carried away," Wilson said, who did acknowledge some sense of relief in getting the first win out of the way so early. "We'll have to banish all the newspapers from the room tomorrow and make sure all the TVs are turned off, because I'm sure some people are already planning the (Stanley Cup) parade."That's the reality of playing in a hockey-mad market like Toronto that hasn't had one of those parades in 43 years, but perspective aside, the Leafs players all looked pretty pleased with themselves after taking care of last year's Eastern Conference finalists."It's a big win for our team," said captain Dion Phaneuf , who left the game for several minutes in the third to get stitched up after getting cut by a Montreal player's skate. "It's a divisional game against a team that has a lot of speed and a lot of skill, so it was good test for us." Phil Kessel and Clarke MacArthur scored for the Leafs, as they instantly avoided last year's misery when they got off to an 0-7-1 start. Jean-Sebastien Giguere had a first-star performance for Toronto with 26 saves, including two from point-blank range on Brian Gionta in the dying seconds of the third to preserve the victory."It looked like vintage J.S. Giguere from back in the Anaheim days there," defenseman Luke Schenn said. "He was great for us. When he makes saves like that at key times at the end of a game, it makes us feel pretty good about ourselves having him back there."Giguere admitted that he's out to prove his play this season will not be vintage at all, that he is in fact still in his prime and still able to produce the types of performances that propelled the Ducks to the 2007 Stanley Cup championship."I want to show everybody that I can still play," Giguere said. "I feel good, I have lots of energy. These young guys give me energy every day, so it's fun to come to the rink." Carey Price was solid for the Canadiens after giving up two goals on the first six shots he faced, stopping 17 of the next 18 the Leafs sent his way.There was a fair amount of pressure on him to shine right off the bat as Canadiens fans gave him a rough time in the preseason, and Price did just that early on by stoning Kessel and Tyler Bozak on Grade-A chances on the first two shots he faced."It's always nice to get into a game early, it's a confidence booster when you make a save early," said Price, even though it took over five minutes for him to see his first shot.Off-season acquisitions Dustin Boyd and Jeff Halpern each got a goal in their first regular season games with the Canadiens."I thought Dustin Boyd was one of our best forwards tonight," Canadiens coach Jacques Martin said.The game began with the traditional performance by the 48th Highlanders of Canada, who kicked off the Leafs season for a 79th straight time, and the Toronto player introductions.They were necessary this year as there were five Leafs players playing their first game with the club: MacArthur, Colby Armstrong Kris Versteeg and Mike Zigomanis The Leafs took over five minutes to get their first shot on goal, but once they did the controlled the play, outshooting Montreal 12-5 over the final 15 minutes of the opening period."I felt the first five minutes we were a little nervous, you could feel the tension a little bit," Giguere said. "But once we had that first shot on net we started rolling. We got our legs."Kessel and Bozak were both robbed by Price just before Brent was left alone in front to tip a Phaneuf point shot past him at 6:42 of the first. It was Brent's first goal in a Leafs uniform, and the second of his career in his 20th NHL game.Just over two minutes later, Kessel got behind Hal Gill at the Montreal blue line to go in alone on Price. Kessel made a series of dekes to his forehand and Price got a pad on the shot, but his skate slid over the line and the puck followed, giving the Leafs a 2-0 lead at 8:57.The Canadiens cut the lead in half at 12:19 when Boyd took advantage of a Carl Gunnerson giveaway to jam in his own rebound to score his first goal for his new team.Montreal began taking it to Toronto in the second and drew three straight power plays over the middle period, but couldn't tie it up as the Leafs survived a close call when Tomas Plekanec hit a post to enter the third up 2-1.Toronto made it 3-1 very early in the third when MacArthur danced around Jaroslav Spacek and slid a backhand past Price at 1:36 of the third."I'd like to have played the third differently," Price said. "I kind of got caught in between but that's hockey ... it's making quick decisions and sometimes they're not always right."The Canadiens got that goal back less than a minute later when Halpern converted a rebound at 2:28, but that's as close as they would come.

Ce jeudi, les Canadiens de Montréal jouaient leur premier match de la saison régulière 2010-2011 de la Ligue nationale de hockey (LNH) en affrontant les Maple Leafs de Toronto au Centre Air Canada de Toronto.

Par Éric Leblanc - Privé de quelques éléments importants pour son premier match de la saison, le Canadien est passé près d'effacer un mauvais départ, mais il a encaissé un revers de 3 à 2 face aux Maple Leafs de Toronto.
À son premier match régulier en tant que capitaine, Brian Gionta a failli joué les héros dans la dernière minute de jeu, mais il a été volé à deux occasions par des arrêts sensationnels de Jean-Sébastien Giguère.
«Il a fait deux ou trois arrêts contre moi à la fin du match. Je croyais bien l'avoir, mais il a eu le dessus», a avoué Gionta.
«Ça bourdonnait pas mal et j'avais hâte d'entendre la sirène de la fin du match», a lancé Giguère avec le sourire en confirmant que c'est toujours plaisant de battre le Canadien.
Après avoir concédé les deux premiers buts de la rencontre, le Canadien a repris du poil de la bête, mais il a manqué de munitions pour niveler la marque avec les absences de Michael Cammalleri, Andrei Markov et Roman Hamrlik.
«Ça fait partie des situations à gérer pour une équipe et ça donne l'occasion à d'autres joueurs de se démarquer», a commenté Jacques Martin en refusant de se tourner vers cette excuse.
Carey Price, qui était à son poste même s'il se remet d'un virus, n'a pu faire la différence devant le filet du Canadien malgré une performance à la hauteur du défi avec 21 arrêts. Le jeune gardien numéro un du Canadien a cédé deux fois avant la fin de la neuvième minute de la partie face à Tim Brent et Phil Kessel.
«Bien sûr, on ne voulait pas amorcer la saison avec une défaite, mais je crois que nous avons fait plusieurs choses intéressantes sauf que les Leafs ont profité de leurs chances», a expliqué Price.
À défaut de pouvoir compter sur quelques gros canons, le Canadien peut se consoler du fait que ses employés de soutien ont offert une prestation inspirée. D'ailleurs, Dustin Boyd et Jeff Halpern ont chacun inscrit leur premier but dans leur nouvel uniforme.
«Certains joueurs ont bien joué dont Dustin Boyd qui a été l'un de nos meilleurs attaquants», s'est réjoui le pilote montréalais.
Clarke MacArthur a enfilé le but victorieux tôt en troisième période après s'être moqué de Jaroslav Spacek tout près du filet de Price. Ce but portait le pointage à 3-1 en faveur des Leafs et Halpern a répliqué seulement 52 secondes plus tard.
La troupe de Jacques Martin a raté quelques occasions de faire tourner le vent en deuxième période en frappant à la porte du filet de Giguère sans succès. Le cerbère québécois, qui a terminé sa soirée avec 26 arrêts, s'est notamment illustré face à un lancer du revers de Lars Eller qui était agenouillé et au dos au filet alors que Tomas Plekanec a frappé le poteau durant un avantage numérique.
«Nous avons eu des chances de marquer sans pouvoir capitaliser et nous avons aussi commis des erreurs coûteuses», a admis l'entraîneur. «Quelques aspects de notre jeu ont fait défaut et il faudra corriger la situation.»
Les Leafs ont été très timides durant ce second engagement en obtenant seulement cinq lancers sur Price.
Le jeu de puissance montréalais aurait pu jouer un rôle majeur, mais il n'a rien produit en trois occasions.
«Nous n'avons pas créé les occasions de marquer dont nous avons besoin et nous allons revoir le match pour ajuster le tir», a indiqué Martin.
Un mauvais départ
En première période, le Canadien n'a pas connu le départ espéré alors que Brent a fait dévier dans le haut du filet un lancer de Dion Phaneuf dès la septième minute de jeu.
Phil Kessel est revenu à la charge en profitant d'un revirement du Canadien en zone neutre causé par une passe de Hal Gill. Kessel a filé seul devant Price pour tromper sa vigilance de justesse avec une feinte.
Le Canadien a repris du poil de la bête quand Boyd a enfilé le premier but de la saison du CH en complétant le travail acharné de ses compagnons de trio Maxim Lapierre et Mathieu Darche.
Le deuxième tiers a été dominé par la formation montréalaise, mais les Leafs ont résisté en partie grâce au travail de Giguère.
«C'est certain que nous allons avoir quelques soirées difficiles avec une équipe aussi jeune. Par contre, on ne devrait jamais pouvoir critiquer notre ardeur au travail et si on déploie un tel effort à chaque match, je crois que nous allons obtenir plus de victoires que de défaites», a soutenu Giguère.
Boyd, qui a connu un fort match, a été incapable de marquer son deuxième but de la soirée quand il s'est échappé devant Giguère en troisième période.
Le Tricolore disputera sa deuxième partie samedi à Pittsburgh dans le nouvel amphithéâtre des Penguins.
Avant le lancement de la saison, les Leafs ont tenu une cérémonie avec plusieurs anciens joueurs des Maple Leafs dont Johnny Bower et Félix Potvin.

Prenez note que cet article publié en 2010 pourrait contenir des informations qui ne sont plus à jour.
Les Leafs réduisent au silence les deux premiers trios du CH pour s'imposer en ouverture de saison à Toronto.
TORONTO - Avec la suspension à Michael Cammalleri, le sort du Canadien reposait encore plus sur les épaules de Tomas Plekanec, Scott Gomez et Brian Gionta.
Les Maple Leafs le savaient et ils ont consacré leurs efforts à les ralentir. Ils ont atteint leur objectif.
Sans la contribution de ses deux premières unités, le CH s'est incliné 3-2 devant les Leafs, jeudi, en cette soirée d'ouverture au Centre Air Canada.
« Nous aurions souhaité générer plus de chances, a affirmé le capitaine Brian Gionta dans un vestiaire pratiquement désert après le match. En deuxième période, l'avantage numérique nous a aussi fait mal. Sur trois occasions, nous n'avons frappé à la porte qu'une seule fois. »
Une chance, Gionta en a obtenu une en or dans les toutes dernières secondes du match. Le petit ailier a sauté sur une rondelle libre devant le filet de Jean-Sébastien Giguère, mais l'homme masqué a étiré la jambière pour empêcher la prolongation.
« Comme on dit, ça bourdonnait pas mal à la fin, a admis Giguère. J'avais vraiment hâte d'entendre la sirène. Sur le tir de Gionta, je dois être honnête, je n'ai même pas vu la rondelle. Mais je peux vous dire que c'est toujours agréable de battre le Canadien. »
Giguère, élu la première étoile du match, a bloqué 26 tirs.
Clarke MacArthur a marqué ce qui s'est avéré le but vainqueur en troisième période. L'ancien des Sabres et des Thrashers a déculotté Jaroslav Spacek avant de battre d'un tir du revers Carey Price.
Cette séquence a été un portrait assez juste du travail de l'unité défensive du Tricolore. Du début à la fin, Spacek, Alexandre Picard et Ryan O'Byrne ont peiné dans leur territoire.
À la lumière de ce premier match, Jacques Martin priera pour un retour rapide d'Andrei Markov (genou droit) et Roman Hamrlik (genou gauche).
« C'est une situation qu'on doit gérer, mais ça donne une occasion à d'autres individus, a affirmé Martin avec son lexique habituel. On doit se regrouper comme équipe et souhaiter voir plus d'individus en uniforme. »
La recrue P.K. Subban, qui jouait un premier match dans sa terre natale, a de loin été le meilleur défenseur du Canadien.
La force des nouveaux...

Dustin Boyd et Jeff Halpern, deux acquisitions de Pierre Gauthier au cours de l'été, ont marqué les deux seuls buts des visiteurs contre Giguère.
Tim Brent, qui n'avait réussi qu'un seul but en 19 matchs dans la LNH, et Phil Kessel ont complété le pointage pour les vainqueurs.
Pivoté par le prometteur Tyler Bozak (1 passe), le premier trio des Leafs a fait des flammèches. Ron Wilson misera enfin sur une unité de renom cette saison avec Bozak, Kessel et Kris Versteeg.
Price abandonné
Grippé en milieu de semaine, Carey Price n'a pas à rougir de sa prestation dans la défaite. Ses défenseurs n'ont rien fait pour l'aider à soigner son rhume.
Price a accordé 3 buts sur 24 tirs.
« On ne voulait pas entreprendre la saison avec une défaite, mais je crois que nous avons fait plusieurs bonnes choses ce soir, a expliqué le numéro 31. Les Leafs ont simplement profité de nos revirements. »
Malgré le retour de Cammalleri, le Canadien n'aura pas la vie plus facile à son deuxième match de l'année avec un arrêt à Pittsburgh, samedi.
Les Penguins auront encore en tête cette élimination au deuxième tour des séries.

Canadiens beat reeling Sabres 2-1
The second 40 years of NHL hockey in Buffalo began the same way the start first 40 years did -- with a loss to the Montreal Canadiens
Forty years to the day after the Sabres lost the first home game in franchise history to the Canadiens, they dropped their fourth home game in a row as Carey Price made 22 saves and Alexandre Picard and Josh Gorges scored to help Montreal to a 2-1 victory on Friday night.
Price, was rarely tested by a Buffalo team that was blanked 1-0 in overtime by New Jersey on Wednesday night.
"It makes my job a lot easier when guys can't get second and third whacks at pucks," said Price, who faced 48 shots in a 4-3 home overtime loss to Tampa Bay on Wednesday night. "Our guys played really well, and we played an excellent system game. I thought everybody battled hard and did their job. We talked about defensive play before the game, and the guys did a great job of taking that to heart."
For two periods, it looked like the present-day Canadiens might emulate the Habs of 40 years ago and blank the Sabres again -- they won that game 3-0 and led this one 2-0 through 40 minutes. Derek Roy got the Sabres on the board 3:26 into the third period, but Montreal stifled its Northeast Division rival the rest of the way. Buffalo's last shot on goal came with 3:48 left in regulation, and goalie Ryan Miller was unable to get to the bench for an extra attacker until less than 16 seconds remained.
"The last two games, I wasn't pleased with how we played away from the puck," Canadiens coach Jacques Martin said. "I didn't think we had the commitment, and our intensity needed to be better. Tonight we stayed out of the penalty box, rolled four lines, and I thought that was a big difference."
Miller made 26 saves for the Sabres, who have dropped four straight -- all at home -- since a season-opening win at Ottawa a week ago. They play six of the next seven on the road.
Before Roy's third-period goal -- his fifth of the season -- the Sabres hadn't scored since the third period of their 4-3 loss Monday to Chicago, a streak of 118:55.
"We had a couple of bad bounces and it seems like we've had bad bounces fall on us," Roy said. "We're getting outworked at home and that's unacceptable."
After a scoreless first period, Picard gave the Canadiens a 1-0 lead with his first of the season 1:29 into the second. After his slap shot from the left point was blocked by Patrick Kaleta, Picard collected the puck in the lower left circle and threw a pass to the front of the net that bounced off Buffalo defenseman Chris Butler's skate at the top of the crease and went past Miller. It was his first goal since last Dec. 18 at New Jersey.
Gorges' one-timer from the right point beat Miller on the glove side with 1:05 for a 2-0 lead. The goal ended Montreal's 0-for-11 start on the power play.
Sabres coach Lindy Ruff shortened his bench, sitting center Tim Connolly in the third period.
"I told the guys after the second period, guys were going to play who were going to compete," Ruff said, "The guys who were playing the best were going to play. I didn't care who it was."
Roy's goal wasn't enough to salvage the night.
"We didn't win battles early on," Ruff said. "We threw some pucks away and didn't compete enough."

BUFFALO (PC) -- À l'image de la cérémonie soulignant le 40e anniversaire du premier match à domicile des Sabres de Buffalo, le Canadien de Montréal a remporté un duel soporifique 2-1, vendredi soir.Le match a été marqué de part et d'autre par de nombreux revirements en zone centrale, du jeu décousu et des tirs qui manquaient de précision. Les défenseurs du Tricolore sont heureusement venus à la rescousse et ont enfilé les deux premiers filets du match.Le Canadien (2-1-1) a joué de chance à 1:29 de la période médiane lorsque Alexandre Picard , son premier dans son nouvel uniforme, a effectué un tir anodin en direction du filet qui a ricoché sur le patin du défenseur Chris Butler avant de se retrouver derrière Ryan Miller. Picard avait été réinséré dans la formation au détriment de Ryan O'Byrne , et a bien paru aux côtés de P.K. Subban . Ce dernier récolté son premier point de la campagne sur le filet de Picard.Le Tricolore, qui avait échoué à ses 10 premières supériorités numériques cette saison, a finalement brisé cette séquence avec 1:05 à écouler à la deuxième période. Josh Gorges a doublé l'avance des siens en décochant un puissant tir frappé de la pointe qui a ricoché contre la tige à la gauche de Miller avant de se faufiler derrière lui.Les Sabres (1-3-1) ont riposté à 3:26 de la troisième période par l'entremise de Derek Roy, qui a bénéficié d'une mêlée devant le filet de Price pour se reprendre à deux reprises avant de lancer le disque de caoutchouc dans une cage déserte.Le reste du match a été l'affaire de Price, qui a repoussé les nombreuses attaques des Sabres sans qu'ils puissent créer l'égalité. Carey Price a entamé un quatrième match consécutif devant la cage du Canadien, et a encore une fois été solide en réalisant 22 arrêts. Il a notamment frustré la recrue Tyler Ennis en échappée avec une minute à faire au premier vingt, et Mike Grier sur un tir à bout portant en troisième.De son côté, Miller a été solide en repoussant 26 tirs pour les Sabres, qui ont perdu un quatrième match d'affilée à domicile.Les Sabres avaient disputé leur premier match à domicile le 15 octobre 1970 face au Canadien, et s'étaient alors inclinés 3-0.

Après une dure défaite encaissée il y a quelques jours, les Canadiens voudront reprendre le chemin de la victoire vendredi à Buffalo contre les Sabres, le premier de deux matchs en autant de soirs pour les hommes de Jacques Martin.Menant son duel avec le Lightning pendant la majorité de la partie, les punitions sont venues à bout du Tricolore qui a tout de même réussi à récolter un point dans un revers de 4 à 3 subi en prolongation mercredi.S’ils veulent remporter leur deuxième match de la saison, les Canadiens devront le faire face à une formation qui lui a souvent donné des maux de tête. Spécialement à Buffalo, où le Tricolore est sorti victorieux qu’à 36 reprises en 120 confrontations dans son histoire.Une grande raison derrière ces insuccès est la prestation des gardiens de buts des Sabres. L’entraîneur-chef Lindy Ruff en compte deux dans ses rangs qui ont constamment donné du fil à retordre à leur rival de la section Nord-est. Ryan Miller et Patrick Lalime ont en effet défait les Canadiens à 17 occasions chacun au cours de leurs carrières. Miller ne revendique cependant qu’une seule victoire en quatre départs depuis le début de la nouvelle campagne.Malgré le modeste début de saison de leur adversaire, le capitaine Brian Gionta sait qu’il ne faut pas se fier aux apparences.« Ils ont un bon gardien, une bonne équipe. Il n’y a pas de mauvaises équipes dans cette Ligue. Tout le monde est bon, tout le monde est solide. Buffalo n’est pas différent. Ils ont un excellent gardien et une bonne philosophie d’équipe, alors ce sera tout un match. »Scénario semblable du côté des visiteurs alors que Carey Price et Alex Auld ont cinq victoires chacun à leur actif face à l’équipe de l’État de New York. Auld aura peut-être la chance de disputer un premier match dans l’uniforme bleu-blanc-rouge au cours du week-end, puisqu’à la conclusion de la rencontre de ce soir, lui et ses coéquipiers reviendront à Montréal pour y accueillir les Sénateurs d’Ottawa samedi.Les Sabres devront garder un œil sur le trio composé d’ Andrei Kostitsyn Tomas Plekanec et Michael Cammalleri . Depuis que le numéro 13 est revenu de sa suspension, les trois acolytes ont récolté huit points (quatre buts et quatre mentions d’aide) en deux matchs en plus de présenter un différentiel de +9.Un joueur que Ruff n’aura pas à sa disposition ce soir est Jason Pominville. Ce dernier a quitté la rencontre de lundi après qu’il eut été mis en échec par l’arrière par Niklas Hjalmarsson des Blackhawks de Chicago. Hjalmarsson a été suspendu pour deux matchs suite à son geste et on ignore toujours la gravité de la blessure du joueur originaire de Repentigny. Pominville, en compagnie de Derek Roy, a d’ailleurs été le plus productif face au Tricolore la saison dernière avec une récolte de six points en cinq parties. Roman Hamrlik a bien paru à son premier match disputé depuis le 24 mai dernier. Absent du camp d’entraînement en raison d’une blessure au genou, le Tchèque a passé un peu plus de 20 minutes sur la patinoire face au Lightning avec un différentiel de +1. Ses responsabilités devraient s’accentuer au cours des prochaines rencontres.

Cette fois, les hommes de Jacques Martin ont tenu le coup.Contrairement au match de mercredi face au Lightning de Tampa Bay, le Canadien a tenu bon, vendredi, et la emporté 2-1 face aux Sabres à Buffalo.« Cest une bien meilleure performance de notre part, a avoué lentraîneur-chef Jacques Martin au terme de la rencontre. On a été plus discipliné alors tous les joueurs ont été impliqués dans le match. »Moins sollicité, Carey Price a été solide à quelques reprises, particulièrement en fin de première période face à Tyler Ennis et Tyler Myers et en troisième aux dépens de Mike Greer. Price, qui débutait un quatrième match consécutif, na cédé quà une reprise et a stoppé 22 rondelles.Seul Derek Roy a déjoué le gardien du Canadien en troisième période. Pour Roy, il sagissait déjà dun cinquième but cette saison.« On a donné une meilleure protection à Carey ce soir, a poursuivi Martin. Il a su faire les gros arrêts lorsque la situation lexigeait. »Les défenseurs Alexandre Picard et Josh Gorges ont contribué offensivement pour le Canadien et ont inscrit leur premier filet de la saison en deuxième période.Inséré dans lalignement à la place de Ryan OByrne, Picard a donné raison à son entraîneur et a marqué son premier but dans luniforme tricolore. Picard, a vu son lancer dévier sur le patin du défenseur adverse Chris Butler pour ensuite pénétrer dans le filet protégé par Ryan Miller.« Ce n'est pas mon plus beau but en carrière, mais en raison du nombre que j'inscris au cours d'une saison, je vais le prendre!, a affirmé un Picard souriant dans le vestiaire. De jouer pour le Canadien et de contribuer à la victoire, c'est spécial. »Son partenaire à la ligne bleue P.K. Subban a enregistré son premier point de la saison sur la séquence.Josh Gorges a doublé lavance des siens en fin de deuxième période. Il a permis au Canadien d'inscrire un premier but en avantage numérique cette saison. L'attaque massive du Canadien avait été blanchie en 10 occasions avant le but de Gorges, qui a déjoué Miller à l'aide d'un puissant tir frappé.Ce dernier a terminé la rencontre avec 26 arrêts.Avant la rencontre, une cérémonie a eu lieue pour souligner les 40 ans dhistoire de la concession. Les Sabres avaient joué leur premier match à domicile le 15 octobre 1970 face au Canadien.Le Canadien accueillera les Sénateurs d'Ottawa et Alex Kovalev au Centre Bell samedi.

Les joueurs du Canadien ont pleinement mérité quelques journées de congé.
Le Tricolore a comblé un retard de deux buts en deuxième période pour l'emporter 4-3 sur les Sénateurs d'Ottawa, samedi au Centre Bell.
Le but de la victoire a été l'oeuvre de Tomas Plekanec qui a marqué à la suite d'un retour de lancer avec moins de quatre minutes à jouer. Plekanec a aussi récolté une passe.
Vendredi à Buffalo, le Canadien a gagné 3-1. En cinq parties, la fiche du Tricolore est de 3-1-1.
Le Canadien n'a pas volé cette victoire, ayant tiré 40 fois en direction du filet adverse contre seulement 19 fois pour les Sénateurs, qui ont tiré six fois en deuxième et deux fois au dernier tiers. Le gardien du Canadien Carey Price effectuait un cinquième départ de suite et il a été solide.
"Il fait de l'excellent travail devant le filet et il rend mon travail plus facile," a dit P.K. Subban au sujet de Price.
Le match n'était vieux que de 66 secondes lorsque Brian Gionta a soulevé la foule après avoir déjoué Brian Elliott d'un tir du revers. Gionta s'est retrouvé seul devant le filet des Sénateurs après avoir battu de vitesse Milan Michalek en zone neutre.
Michalek a fait amende honorable en touchant la cible deux fois pour les Sens. Il a compté le premier des siens quand il s'est emparé d'une rondelle qui venait de toucher le poteau depuis le bâton de Daniel Alfredsson, qui a récolté deux passes. Alfredsson a dépassé le cap des 100 points en carrière contre Montréal avec 101 en 76 rencontres.
Jason Spezza a imité son capitaine avec deux aides.
Le deuxième but de Michalek donnait momentanément l'avance aux Sénateurs 3-1 en deuxième période après une belle feinte contre Jaroslav Spacek avant d'aller battre Carey Price. Le but de Michalek est survenu sur le deuxième tir seulement de son équipe en deuxième. Le premier tir des visiteurs avait aussi été payant puisque Erik Karlsson avait fait feu dans le haut du filet. Ce premier tir est arrivé après 10:10 de jeu.
Le Canadien n'a pas baissé les bras malgré ce deuxième match en l'espace de 24 heures et un retard de deux buts. Les hommes de Jacques Martin ont nivelé les chances avant la fin de la période médiane. D'abord quand Jeff Halpern a joué de chance avec sa passe depuis l'arrière du filet qui a dévié sur le patin de Chris Campoli pour poursuivre son chemin dans le filet d'Elliott.
Sur une belle pièce de jeu, Andrei Kostitsyn a nivelé les chances 3-3 en battant Elliott d'un tir précis dans la partie supérieure. Kostitsyn, qui a aussi récolté une passe sur le but de Plekanec, a connu un gros match.
"Andrei est un élément important pour l'équipe quand il utilise sa force, a dit l'entraîneur du Canadien. Quand il va au filet, son tir est une force intimidante. Il complète une très bonne combinaison avec Plekanec"
Quand un journaliste a demandé à Martin comment il parvenait à motiver AK46, le pilote a répondu à la blague par une question en demandant si le joueur écoulait la dernière année de son contrat. "Il nous avait donné du bon hockey l'an dernier entre les parties et 20 à 40. Une blessure l'avait toutefois ralenti. S'il peut rester en santé, il pourra nous aider."
"Si je fournis toujours l'effort maximum, je vais marquer plus souvent", a affirmé Kostitsyn.
Plekanec a souligné que Kostitsyn interagit davantage avec ses coéquipiers cette saison. Le départ de son frère Sergei ne l'a pas affecté, on dirait.
"Il ne s'est pas présenté dans la meilleure des formes, au début de la saison dernière, a rappelé Martin. Il avait connu ses meilleurs moments entre les matchs 20 et 40, avant d'être blessé. On souhaite qu'il restera en santé cette saison."
Victime de sept buts la veille dans un match de la LAH, le gardien de 19 ans Robin Lehner a été lancé dans la mêlée en début de troisième en raison d'un bris d'équipement à Elliott. Lehner a bien fait en bloquant les trois tirs dirigés vers en environ cinq minutes.
Le jeune Lars Eller n'a joué que 4:21 et a été cloué sur le banc par son entraîneur en troisième. Il a terminé la partie avec un ratio de moins deux.
"Ce n'était pas de sa faute mais il était à moins deux. Il est dans un processus d'apprentissage, a raconté Martin. J'ai beaucoup aimé son jeu vendredi à Buffalo et quand je coupe mon banc, ça peut le priver de temps de glace."
Le Canadien profitera de quelques jours de congé et disputera son prochain match jeudi contre les Devils du New Jersey.

Hockey Canadien 2 - Sabres 1
La victoire des détails
Un texte de Jean-François Chaumont
Le Canadien n'a pas réalisé de coup d'éclat, mais il a gagné les petites batailles.
Plus discipliné et moins généreux dans son territoire, le CH a triomphé des Sabres 2-1, vendredi, à Buffalo.
Les Sabres, qui célébraient leur 40e anniversaire, ont subi le même sort qu'à leur premier match dans la LNH, le 15 octobre 1970, contre le Tricolore. Mené par un doublé d'Yvan Cournoyer, le Tricolore avait signé une victoire de 3-0.
Mieux appuyé par ses défenseurs, Carey Price a joué un rôle déterminant dans cette victoire avec 22 arrêts.
Encore une fois très convaincant, le numéro 31 a perdu son jeu blanc au début du troisième tiers. Derey Roy a profité d'un contact entre Thomas Vanek et Josh Gorges pour inscrire l'unique but des Sabres.
Alexandre Picard et Gorges ont marqué pour les vainqueurs contre l'excellent Ryan Miller.
Le message est compris
Avant le départ de l'équipe pour Buffalo, Jacques Martin avait exigé un meilleur effort défensif de son équipe, le réveil de son avantage numérique et une meilleure contribution de Scott Gomez et de Brian Gionta.
Sans frapper un coup de circuit, Martin a vu de l'amélioration dans chacun des trois aspects.
Le CH a limité les Sabres à 23 tirs, une nette diminution comparativement au dernier match (48 tirs du Lightning).
En avantage numérique, le Tricolore est sorti de sa torpeur avec un premier but, celui de Gorges. En dernier lieu, Gomez (1 passe) et Gionta ont connu une sortie très honnête aux côtés de Travis Moen.
Des premiers
Signe d'un match assez décousu, le CH a marqué le premier but du match en deuxième période grâce au patin droit d'un rival, le défenseur Chris Butler.
Picard a réussi son premier but dans l'uniforme bleu, blanc et rouge en déjouant Miller d'un tir anodin dévié par Butler. P.K. Subban a obtenu son premier point de l'année sur ce jeu.
Rayé de la formation au dernier match contre le Lightning, Picard a remplacé Ryan O'Byrne pour la visite à Buffalo.
Avant la fin du deuxième tiers, Gorges a réanimé l'avantage numérique des siens avec un tir de la pointe pour battre Miller.
Le CH, qui a marqué un but en trois occasions, a maintenant un maigre dossier de 1 en 12 en supériorité numérique.
Oublier la fatigue
Le Tricolore (2-1-1) jouera un deuxième match en deux soirs, samedi, contre les Sénateurs d'Ottawa (1-2-1). Avec une autre très bonne sortie, Price pourrait bien obtenir un cinquième départ d'affilée.
Price n'a pas gagné devant ses fidèles du Centre Bell depuis le 10 février 2010 (6-5 contre les Capitals de Washington).

Habs add to Sabres' home woes Buffalo 0-3-1 at HSBC
Carey Price was the beneficiary of the Montreal Canadiens' renewed defensive focus.
Price made 22 saves, and Alexandre Picard and Josh Gorges scored to help Montreal beat the Buffalo Sabres 2-1 on Friday night.
Price, who came in having faced the most shots by any goalie who has played three or fewer games, was rarely tested by a Buffalo team that was blanked by New Jersey on Wednesday night.
"It makes my job a lot easier when guys can't get second and third whacks at pucks," said Price, who faced 48 shots in a 4-3 overtime loss to Tampa Bay on Wednesday night.
"Our guys played really well, and we played an excellent system game. I thought everybody battled hard and did their job. We talked about defensive play before the game, and the guys did a great job of taking that to heart."
The Canadiens return Saturday at Bell Centre to host Ottawa on Hockey Night in Canada (CBC, CBCSports.ca, 7 p.m. ET).
Up 2-0 after two periods, Montreal was able to hang on for the win after blowing a two-goal lead at home against the Lightning.
"We felt good about our lead, but we knew they were going to come out hard," said Picard, who scored for the first time since Dec. 18, 2009, at New Jersey. "We actually got a couple chances early in the third, then they had theirs. After that, we just shut our blue-line, and they couldn't get in."
The Canadiens also used a strong forecheck late in the game to prevent the Sabres from mounting a threat. Buffalo's last shot on goal came with 3:48 left in regulation, and goalie Ryan Miller was unable to get to the bench for an extra attacker until less than 16 seconds remained.
"The last two games, I wasn't pleased with how we played away from the puck," Canadiens coach Jacques Martin said. "I didn't think we had the commitment, and our intensity needed to be better. Tonight we stayed out of the penalty box, rolled four lines, and I thought that was a big difference."
Derek Roy scored his NHL-leading fifth goal and Ryan Miller made 26 saves for the Sabres, who have dropped four straight — all at home — since a season-opening win at Ottawa.
Roy has accounted for all but four of Buffalo's goals.
Before Roy's third-period goal, the Sabres hadn't scored since the third period of their loss Monday to Chicago, a streak of 118 minutes 55 seconds.
"We had a couple of bad bounces and it seems like we've had bad bounces fall on us," Roy said. "We're getting outworked at home and that's unacceptable."
After a scoreless first period, Picard gave the Canadiens a 1-0 lead with his first of the season 1:29 into the second. After his slapshot from the left point was blocked by Sabres forward Patrick Kaleta, Picard collected the puck in the lower left circle before sending a pass to the front of the net.
The puck ricocheted in off Buffalo defenceman Chris Butler's skate at the top of the crease.
Montreal grabbed a 2-0 lead with just 1:05 to go in the second when Gorges' one-timer from the right point beat Miller on the glove side.
The power-play goal was Montreal's first this season, snapping an 0-for-11 drought.
The Sabres cut the deficit in half when Roy scored 3:36 into the third.
"We didn't win battles early on," Sabres coach Lindy Ruff said. "We threw some pucks away and didn't compete enough."

A small desk calendar, which started as a voluntary school project, has risen to unexpected heights of fame.
His Excellency Dr. Suvit Yodmani, Thai Minister for Tourism and Sports paid tribute to the young creators of the "Chiang Mai Charity Calendar" by travelling up from Bangkok to preside at the official launch of this initiative, which is designed to increase visitor arrivals to the Northern Thai city, and raise funds through calendar sales for childrens' charities in the region. The event was held on October 5th 2007 at the recently opened Sofitel Riverside Hotel Chiang Mai, and attended by over 100 senior travel trade, airline media, consular and city hall representatives.
In an evening which included a presentation of how the calendar was conceived and created plus solo violin and classical guitar performances by students, Dr Suvit gave a talk about the future of the tourism industry in Chiang Mai, highlighting the importance of environmental issues, and close co-operation between the government and private sectors. He cited the Charity Calendar as an example of what could be achieved even by schoolchildren in terms of tourism promotion, and gave it his wholehearted support.
The evening concluded with the Minister presenting certificates of appreciation to the artists who painted the colourful images of the city which were chosen to be included in the non-profit calendar and representing why "Chiang Mai is a Wonderful Place to Live"
Offered as an unusual gift, the desk calendar is likely to carry its promotional message — in text and childrens' paintings — into homes and offices in countries around the world.

Thailand's Tourism Minister To Preside Over Launch Of The Chiang Mai Charity Calendar
Thailand's Tourism and Sports Minister H.E. Dr Suvit Yodmani will address an invited audience of hotel general managers, city officials, and senior travel trade representatives on the subject of : "Chiang Mai's Tourism Industry in 2008 and Beyond" on 5th October 2007 at the Sofitel Riverside Hotel, Chiang Mai.
The occasion marks the official launch of the "Chiang Mai Charity Calendar" an innovative promotional tool for the Lanna capital created by school children and local volunteers. Already catching the attention of the international travel press, the simple but attractive high quality desk calendar features 13 images painted by students of all ages and nationalities from Prem Tinsulanonda International School, reflecting why they think "Chiang Mai is a Wonderful Place to Live"
The 40-page non-profit calendar contains five pages of promotional text portraying a clear message that the city has now become a destination in its own right, and a prime location for leisure, sports, conferences, medical tourism, high-quality shopping, and permanent retirement. It seeks to completely dispel the old notion that Chiang Mai is just a stopover, with a hard-hitting page entitled "A Week is Not Enough"
It reminds readers that the city remained cut off from the world at large for over 600 years, and that the last stretch of paved road was not completed until 1972 - a year after the Apollo 15 crews had driven vehicles on the moon. This relative isolation it points out, gives the city an "enduring aura...you can still feel today" and despite modern development: " the high buildings, highways, and hypermarkets bow deferentially to antiquity, and in many cases, their clumsy presence only serves to intensify the aesthetic beauty of the city's many historical monuments – ancient chedis or graceful golden spires gloriously upstaging trendy modern architecture"
The "Children helping Children" calendar was printed at cost, and self-financed by volunteers with no sponsorship or advertising. It sells for Baht 100.- (approx US$3) and proceeds will be donated to charities for children when the production expenses are covered. The print run was 10,000 copies, and its distribution world-wide as a gift through hotels, travel agents, airlines and corporate companies, as well as by visiting tourists, will help visitor arrivals, encourage an increased length of stay, and help needy children.
A message in the calendar from Mr Junnapong Saranak, Director of the Tourism Authority of Thailand Northern Region 1 states that the calendar is a "unique product and may even become a collector's item"
The calendar web site features images of all the paintings submitted by the children at http://chiangmaicalendar.googlepages.com

A small desk calendar, which started as a voluntary school project, has risen to unexpected heights of fame.
His Excellency Dr. Suvit Yodmani, Thai Minister for Tourism and Sports paid tribute to the young creators of the "Chiang Mai Charity Calendar" by travelling up from Bangkok to preside at the official launch of this initiative, which is designed to increase visitor arrivals to the Northern Thai city, and raise funds through calendar sales for childrens' charities in the region. The event was held on October 5th 2007 at the recently opened Sofitel Riverside Hotel Chiang Mai, and attended by over 100 senior travel trade, airline media, consular and city hall representatives.
In an evening which included a presentation of how the calendar was conceived and created plus solo violin and classical guitar performances by students, Dr Suvit gave a talk about the future of the tourism industry in Chiang Mai, highlighting the importance of environmental issues, and close co-operation between the government and private sectors. He cited the Charity Calendar as an example of what could be achieved even by schoolchildren in terms of tourism promotion, and gave it his wholehearted support.
The evening concluded with the Minister presenting certificates of appreciation to the artists who painted the colourful images of the city which were chosen to be included in the non-profit calendar and representing why "Chiang Mai is a Wonderful Place to Live"
Offered as an unusual gift, the desk calendar is likely to carry its promotional message — in text and childrens' paintings — into homes and offices in countries around the world.

President Lula was cheered by supporters after voting in Sao Paulo
In a victory speech, Lula said he would govern for all Brazilians and intensify efforts to alleviate poverty during his second four-year term.
"We will give attention to the most needy. The poor will have preference in our government," he said.
Lula narrowly failed to win in the first round, forcing Sunday's run-off.
The people who were never taken care of now are being taken care of

In a speech in Sao Paulo, Lula promised to boost growth and reduce inequality to put Brazil on track to reach the ranks of developed nations.
"The foundation is in place, and now we have to get to work," he told crowds of supporters who had taken to the streets in celebration, waving Workers' Party flags.
Supporter Danusia Alves said: "For me it is a great happiness because we have a wonderful government. The people who were never taken care of now are being taken care of."
'Resounding victory'
Votes in Sunday's run-off were cast using electronic ballot boxes, allowing officials to deliver a swift result.
Corruption scandals hampered President Lula's campaign
The BBC's Steve Kingstone in Sao Paulo says it is a resounding victory for a man who was written off by many just over a year ago, when his Workers' Party was at the centre of a cash-for-votes scandal.
But Lula weathered that storm and another during the first phase of this campaign when party colleagues were again accused of corruption, our correspondent says.
Lula narrowly failed to win outright in the first round of voting on 1 October.
During the ensuing campaign the president suggested to voters that Mr Alckmin might scrap welfare benefits for the poor and privatise Brazil's remaining state companies.
Privatisation is generally viewed with suspicion in Brazil. Despite repeated denials by Mr Alckmin, the accusation undoubtedly cost him votes, our correspondent adds.

RIO DE JANIERO, Brazil — Brazilians cast a vote of confidence for President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva on Sunday, granting a landslide victory to the former union leader whose first term was marked by a significant reduction of poverty and by corruption scandals that implicated some of his closest aides.
With 99 percent of ballots counted, Lula had received 61 percent of the vote, outpacing former São Paulo state Gov. Geraldo Alckmin by more than 20 points.
"We're going to do a lot better in my second term than we did in the first," Lula told cheering supporters in a São Paulo hotel. "The foundation is in place, and now we have to get to work."
Alckmin congratulated Lula in a telephone call, then told reporters he planned to stay in politics but didn't outline his next steps.
During the campaign, Lula promoted himself as the champion of the country's poor, touting a 19 percent decrease in poverty, minimum wage increases and millions of new jobs. But he also had to defend himself from several corruption allegations, the latest of which surfaced shortly before a first round of balloting four weeks ago in which Lula narrowly failed to win an outright majority.
That scandal, which alleged Lula's campaign staff paid for incriminating information about his opponents, quieted in the weeks between the two rounds of voting, with Lula promising to investigate the incident and punish anyone found guilty.
Lula, 61, grew up in poverty, dropping out of school in the fifth grade. During Brazil's military dictatorship in the 1970s and '80s, he became a union leader and a prominent voice of opposition. He was elected president in 2002.
His first term's signature program extended welfare benefits to more than 11 million low-income families on the condition that their children attend school and get health checkups. Such programs have helped increase the spending power of the poorest 10 percent of the population by about 23 percent.
The Associated Press contributed to this report.

Brasil: Lula!!
Brazilians re-elect Lula in second round – marking the difference between Politics and Paranoia. After 86 per cent of the votes are counted, Lula already has 60,56 per cent of the vote. Lula is re-elected!!
Brasil: Lula!!
This time there were no doubts and the magnificent work by the supporters of President Lula, a wave which we surfed also in PRAVDA.Ru, was devastating, an example of political marketing which highlighted the social projects of President Lula and the lack of policies defended by the political right, which for years did nothing for the Brazilian people and apparently still has nothing to offer.
The lies of the right-wing were perceived for what they were and the Brazilian people have made a clear demonstration of their political maturity – false statements by the PSDB and supporters were symptoms of the farse which is everything that Alckmin, and the political players who gravitate around him, represent.
President Lula was re-elected because the Brazilian people understood that social and economic projects defended by the coalition Força do Povo (Force of the People), PT-PRB-PcdoB, had to continue, President Lula was re-elected because the several corruption cases he and his Government were accused of by the Right, synonymous with this type of abuse for decades, were not countered with sound political alternatives, basically because the political Right in Brazil and Latin America have run out of cartridges.
For this reason, the political Right in Brazil was seen as complaining about the type of events it is habitually connected with and who knows, maybe orchestrated the scandals it threw at President Lula trying to tarnish the image of the Força do Povo and thus, the campaign for this election separated into two factions – the political one, fought by Força do Povo, and the below-the-belt personal attack campaign, the best the Right could offer.
President Luís Inácio Lula da Silva was re-elected because he represents, for the first time, a control of inflation plus increase of buying power. In two words, reducing inequality. He resisted the temptation to follow a path blazed by the loony left, which would have seen the financial community sweeping the rug from under his feet, summarily, sabotaging the political dreams of Lula, his Partido dos Trabalhadores and any left-of.centre formation for years to come.
However, if his second mandate does not create bases for the future of the Brazilian people (and here we are not speaking about the upper middle classes of the large cities in the south) there will be a space opened for the Left, with a capital L, to draw its own picture in Brazilian politics in four years’ time.

SAO BERNARDO DO CAMPO, Brazil Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva returned to the gritty suburb where he campaigned as a radical leftist for years before winning Brazil's presidency — this time as a popular centrist who stabilized the economy, beat inflation and brought millions out of poverty without raising taxes.
"Four years later, I am here to say that we managed to prove wrong those who bet against our success," Silva said on Thursday before a crowd of about 5,000 flag-waving supporters, listing his government's accomplishments on employment, poverty reduction, foreign investment and exports.
Silva is virtually assured of victory Sunday, despite repeated allegations of political dirty tricks that forced him to fire his campaign manager and prompted arrest warrants this week for some of his top remaining advisers.
He snubbed all major opponents by refusing to attend a Rio de Janeiro televised debate with them Thursday night on the grounds that it was a set up against him. The other three candidates who went on TV attacked him fiercely on the charges of corruption that plagued his government the past two years.

But there were no indications that Silva had been significantly hurt. All polls during the week showed him winning with more than 50 percent of the vote over all his rivals.
The one-time lathe operator became Brazil's first elected leftist president four years ago but almost immediately rejected that label, courting bankers, businessmen and other power brokers he once antagonized as a firebrand union leader.
Wrapping up his re-election campaign Thursday, Silva left an empty chair to represent him at the final candidates' debate. With polls showing him comfortably ahead of former Sao Paulo Gov. Geraldo Alckmin, to his political right, and Sen. Heloisa Helena, to the left, Silva appeared confident of his hold on the vast center of Latin America's largest country.
Silva's absence made for a one-sided debate, with rival candidates all choosing to attack the president over the corruption charges and little discussion of issues.
"He has the obligation to descend from his throne of corruption, arrogance and political cowardice. He isn't here because he does not have the moral authority to confront me," said Helena, who was expelled from Silva's Workers' Party because of disagreements over Silva's tack to the right.
Alckmin, the second-place candidate, called Silva's absence at the debate "a disrespect to the voter."
At several points during the debate, the opposing candidates took the opportunity to address question's to his empty chair.

In a letter to debate host TV Globo, Silva explained that opponents were no longer debating issues but are engaged in "gratuitous attacks and personal aggressions."
Silva's political metamorphosis began after his first three failed attempts at becoming president.
As an opposition leader, he struck a tone of Third-World defiance, urging Brazil to renege on its foreign debt and branding the International Monetary Fund as the enemy.
But as president, he restrained public spending, beat inflation by keeping interest rates high and generated enough budget surpluses to pay off the entire US$15 billion Brazil owed to the fund in a single installment.
He even went after his old comrades in the leftist Workers Party, known by its Brazilian initials PT, which he had founded to oppose the 1964-85 military regime. Half a dozen leftist congressmen were expelled when they objected to his reforms of the chronically bleeding pension system.
Silva's support among the lower classes has held tight thanks to programs such as Zero Hunger, which distributes US$325 million a month to 45 million of the country's 187 million people, as long as families keep their children in school.
"One day I ran into a comrade who was going to eat filet mignon and he told me this is the first time I have eaten this," Silva said Thursday at his final campaign rally. "And we are going to work so that everyone can eat filet mignon everyday."
All parties and candidates put an end to their TV and radio campaigns on Friday, abiding to the law that forbids public publicity and advertising.
About 126 million Brazilians are scheduled to vote Sunday to elect President, state governors and national and state legislators.

SAO PAULO, Brazil, Oct. 1 -- President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva won the first round of Brazil's presidential election Sunday, but fell short of earning enough votes to avoid a runoff later this month against the second-place challenger.
With 99 percent of polling places accounted for, Lula received about 48.7 percent of the votes -- shy of the 50 percent needed to win reelection outright and avert an Oct. 29 runoff. The runner-up, former Sao Paulo state governor Geraldo Alckmin, received about 41.6 percent.
Lula, 60, cast his vote Sunday morning in Sao Bernardo do Campo, an industrial suburb of Sao Paulo, where he worked as a lathe operator and developed into an outspoken labor union leader who opposed the country's military dictatorship in the 1970s and '80s. Corruption scandals have hounded him during the past year, including one that surfaced just before the election charging that his campaign staff paid for damaging information about Alckmin.
That controversy, which continued to dominate headlines on election day, served as a last-minute life preserver that kept the conservative Alckmin's political hopes afloat. If the corruption controversy continues to simmer, his supporters say, they believe he might have a chance to unseat Lula.
"Alckmin can win if something else shows up with this scandal. And the way things are going in Brazilian politics right now, I'm confident that something else is going to show up," said José Carlos Brandt Silva, 62, a businessman who traveled more than 200 miles to vote for Alckmin in Sao Paulo, where his family is registered.
Arrest warrants have been issued for six members of Lula's Workers' Party who are accused of paying about $800,000 for information that allegedly proved corruption on Alckmin's part. Lula's campaign says that Alckmin's supporters desperately contrived the scandal just before the election. Lula fired his campaign manager last week after the allegations aired, though he has denied any involvement.
Overwhelming support from the poor has helped Lula weather the corruption scandals, which also included congressional vote-buying last year in which many members of Lula's party were implicated. His support rests on the fact that poverty rates have dipped since he was elected four years ago, thanks in part to increased government social spending, lower inflation and a stable currency.
"The whole Brazilian political system is corrupt, not just Lula," said Fernando Silva, 29, a furniture maker who voted for Lula at a Sao Paulo public school Sunday. "If Lula is involved in corruption, I think another president would have been even more involved than him. So I'd rather vote for Lula, because my life has changed with him. I'm working. I have my own business."
Alckmin, a medical doctor by training, struggled during the campaign to attract excitement among voters, many of whom had not heard of him before he entered the race in March. After serving as vice governor of the state of Sao Paulo, he advanced to the governor's seat in 2001 following the death of his predecessor.
"He doesn't have a history of being involved in competitive elections, and he's not very well known outside of Sao Paulo," said Maria Celina D'Araujo, a political scientist in Rio de Janeiro. "The image he has tried to project during the campaign is that of the doctor who is going to treat the corruption that Brazil suffers from."
The runoff is expected to force the candidates to clarify their agendas. Lula declined to participate in presidential debates during the first-round campaign, and Alckmin has offered few specific policy proposals.
Some of the challenges for the next president are already apparent, and the candidates might have mentioned them only rarely because of their potential to be politically explosive, analysts said.
For example, the social security system is heavily indebted, and many believe that reducing the generous payouts that retirees now receive is necessary to maintain economic stability. Many economists are also calling for changes in Brazil's labor laws, which offer strong protections for workers but are also believed to fuel a vast sector of workers who are not legally registered; about 55 percent of Brazilian workers are not on the tax rolls.
"The next president is going to have to approve some sort of social security reform, and the issue of labor reform is also going to come up," said Rogério Schmitt, a political analyst in Sao Paulo. "These are unpopular reforms, so the candidates have been very generalistic so far."
If Lula is elected -- and polls put him as the favorite in the runoff -- he will probably have to tackle those issues without much party support from either members of congress members and state governors -- positions that were also on the ballot Sunday.
During his first term, Lula was able to count on support from his party to direct legislation. But the party has been significantly weakened from the scandals, which could make things tougher for him in a second term. He will be forced to build a broader coalition, Schmitt said.
Many affiliated with Brazil's opposition parties are already looking forward to 2010. "Lula will have even more problems in his second term than he did in the first," said Fabio Mazzo, 26, an Alckmin supporter from Sao Paulo.

Ministers face a Commons showdown over claims that the secret services colluded with United States intelligence agencies to gain access to the online records of British citizens. In a move described as a “snooper’s charter by the back door”, sources confirmed that personal information about British internet users had been harvested by US agencies and shared with GCHQ, the Government’s eavesdropping station. It emerged that GCHQ had directly requested material from the US National Security Agency’s Prism programme, which can search huge stores of internet data for information on individuals. Prism was created by US intelligence to gather information on non-US citizens living outside the country. MPs demanded yesterday that either William Hague, the Foreign Secretary, who oversees the work of GCHQ, or the Home Secretary appear in the Commons on Monday to explain how much ministers knew about the operation and how many British citizens could be affected. David Cameron faced calls to order an investigation. Yvette Cooper, the Shadow Home Secretary, said that he should ask Parliament’s Intelligence and Security Committee (ISC) to report on Britain’s relationship with Prism. Sir Malcolm Rifkind, chairman of the ISC, said that it would receive a full report from GCHQ very shortly on the allegations, and that it would then decide what action was needed.

Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva's resounding electoral victory with over 60 percent of the vote places Brazilian politics on a new footing. While many on the left remain critical of Lula for the limited reforms of his first term, his very victory has consolidated a shift in the country's possibilities for deeper social transformations. As Francisco Meneses of IBASE, the Brazilian Institute of Social Economic Analysis, says, "The country is more polarized, it can no longer move back to the old order. The economy is different and social expenditures have been augmented to a level that is important for the lower strata of society." A major reason for Lula's resounding victory is due to the support of the poor and dispossesed who make up the majority of Brazil's population. Even in the first round of the elections on October 8 when Lula fell short of an absolute majority, garnering 48 percent of the vote versus his leading opponent's 41 percent, the poor, particularly in the country's impoverished northeast, provided the decisive margin of support. As Darci Frigo of the Land Rights Center in the state of Paraná states, "Agrarian reform may have been limited in Lula's first term, but thanks to the Zero Hunger program and direct income subsidies many families have more food and are better off." In its international relations a victory by Lula's opponent, Geraldo Alckmin, would have reversed the increasingly independent stance that Brazil has adopted. Alckmin endorsed the neoliberal free trade position advocated by the Bush administration and would have pursued the policy of privatizing the economy that has favored the multinational corporations. Regarding relations with the South, Alckmin attacked Lula for caving in to Bolivia's nationalization in July of the holdings of Brazil's Petrobras. This semi-autonomous state enterprise owned large natural gas reserves in Bolivia that supplied over half of Brazil's domestic natural gas needs. Lula responded by insisting that he would look after Brazil's interests while respecting Bolivia's national automony. Just this weekend as Brazilian voters went to the polls, Petrobras concluded a new agreement with Bolivia that cedes formal control over natural gas reserves to Bolivia's state owned company and significantly increases the gas revenues that remain in Bolivian coffers. As Francisco Meneses of Ibase notes, "Brazil under Lula is aligning itself with the Southern bloc of nations, not subverting its interests to the United States." But many in Brazil remain skeptical of the chances for significant advances in a second Lula administration. Marcos Arruda of PACS, a research center on social and economic alternatives based in Rio de Janeiro, is highly critical of Lula. He notes that "the destruction of the environoment, particularly in the Amazon basin has continued apace," and "the government has practiced irresponsible fiscal policies focus on repaying the international debt and keeping national interest rates high while social spending falls far short of what the county needs." During Lula's first term, most of the country's social movements felt that their agendas were largely neglected as Lula pursued economic and social stabilization policies. Darci Frigo of the Land Rights Center states, "The demands for a profound agrarian reform program advocated by the MST, the Landless Movement, were ignored. Some limited spending was directed to social and educational programs for the landless, but the large landed estates of the country were barely touched as the government encouraged agro-exports." While Lula in the final election round did come out for social spending, Brazil's robust social movements are not sitting idly by, waiting on Lula's volition. Seventeen social movements lead by the MST and the the Unified Workers Central mobilizied in the major cities of Brazil during the final days of the campaign. They released an action manifesto, titled "Thirteen Points for a Social Policy for Brazil." Commiting themselves to "an intensification of the popular and democratic struggles throughout the country" during Lula's second term, they outlined a program that called for profound changes in education, health, fiscal policies, and agrarian reform, all to be carried out "with the effective participation of the people and their social organizations." As Friar Betto, a radical Brazilian theologican notes, "Lula owes us much based on the promises he has made during his presidential campaigns." Even more than Lula's first campaign in 2002, this election polarized the country's electorate, laying out two distinct visions. Francisco Meneses says, "Perhaps Lula on his own would not change much, but the reality is that the social movements realize that this election is their victory and they intend to sharpen the agitation for real transformations from below." Roger Burbach is director of the Center for the Study of the Americas in Berkeley, California and a Visiting Scholar at the Institue of International Studies at the University of California, Berkeley. He has written widely on Latin America, including, The Pinochet Affair: State Terrorism and Global Justice, Zed Books, 2003. Comments ( ) >>

Oldenburgo. El juicio a un ex enfermero acusado de matar a un centenar de pacientes se inició este martes en Alemania con el objetivo de esclarecer este caso sin precedentes desde el final de la II Guerra Mundial.
Al ingresar en la sala, el acusado, Niels Hogel, escondió a los fotógrafos su rostro barbudo, detrás de una cartulina azul.
Luego, tras un minuto de silencio en memoria de las víctimas, escuchó, con la cabeza gacha y el rostro inexpresivo, el acta de acusación y los nombres de las 100 personas muertas, leídos por la fiscal Daniela Schiereck-Bohlmann.
Al ser interrogado sobre si reconocía tales cargos, Hogel respondió: "Sí". Y luego añadió, algo sibilinamente: "lo que ha sido confesado ocurrió en efecto".
Este hombre de 41 años, que purga ya una cadena perpetua desde hace diez años por otros seis asesinatos similares, comparte la sala de audiencia con decenas de familiares de los difuntos en el centro polivalente de Oldenburgo, en el norte del país, por falta de espacio en el mismo tribunal.
Todos tratan de comprender cómo el enfermero pudo cometer esos homicidios, del 2000 al 2005, en los hospitales donde trabajaba, sin que sus jefes, la policía o la justicia pudieran reaccionar.
"(...) No era necesario ser Sherlock Holmes" para comprender que un asesino estaba actuando, sentencia ante la AFP el nieto de un difunto, Christian Marbach.
"Para mí, es la justicia la que tiene que aportar esclarecimientos", explica por su lado el hijo de otra presunta víctima, Frank Brinkers.
- ¿200 víctimas? -
Durante cinco años, primero en el hospital de Oldenburgo y luego en el de la vecina comuna de Delmenhorst, Niels Högel inyectó intencionalmente --según la acusación-- a pacientes medicamentos para provocar paros cardíacos, antes de intentar reanimarlos, la mayoría de las veces sin éxito.
Sus motivos: su deseo de brillar ante sus colegas para mostrar sus talentos de reanimación, y "el aburrimiento", según la fiscalía. Elegía arbitrariamente a sus victimas, de 34 a 96 años.
Nunca expresó el menor remordimiento. Y según sus codetenidos, se vanagloria de ser el mayor criminal en Alemania desde la última guerra.
El juicio se refiere a los 100 presuntos asesinatos, 64 en Delmenhorst y 36 en Oldenburgo, pero Niels Högel no ha confesado todo y mantiene bastantes secretos. Los investigadores creen que el número de víctimas puede ser de más de 200, pero es imposible probarlo pues varios de los difuntos fueron incinerados.
- Responsabilidad de hospitales -
Niels Högel, sorprendido en el 2005 inyectando a un paciente un producto no prescrito, fue condenado en el 2008 a 7 años de prisión por intento de asesinato.
Ingresó en prisión en el 2009, y desde entonces permanece encarcelado.
En efecto, bajo la presión de familiares de las víctimas, otro juicio se produce en 2014/2015. Es declarado entonces culpable de asesinatos o tentativas de asesinato contra cinco personas, y condenado a perpetuidad.
Luego Hogel confesó a su psiquiatra otros 30 asesinatos en Delmenhorst. La investigaciones se extienden luego al hospital de Oldenburgo, y se procede a 134 exhumaciones de cadáveres, lo que permitiría demostrar la magnitud del caso, que conmociona a todo el país.
El caso plantea también el tema de la responsabilidad de los hospitales, que no supieron ponerle fin pese a la frecuencia de reanimaciones y fallecimientos cuando Niels Högel trabajaba en cuidados intensivos.
También tendrán que explicarse ante la justicia antiguos colegas y superiores jerárquicos del acusado.
Hogel, que no murmuró una palabra de disculpas en el primer juicio, y permaneció en silencio en el segundo, tiene, según una valoración psiquiátrica, desarreglos narcisistas y un pánico desaforado ante la muerte.

Alemania ha comenzado este martes el proceso contra su presunto mayor asesino en serie desde el fin de la Segunda Guerra Mundial, el enfermero de 41 años Niel Högel, quien se confesó autor de la muerte de un centenar de pacientes, una cifra que podría ser aún mayor, ya que hay indicios de otros posibles crímenes del procesado.
Con un simple "sí" a la pregunta de si se reconocía culpable de los cargos que le imputa la fiscalía, arrancó en la Audiencia de Oldenburg (centro de Alemania) un nuevo juicio contra este asesino en serie confeso, que en cada uno de sus procesos anteriores ha admitido sus crímenes.
"Lo declarado hasta ahora es lo que ocurrió", añadió Högel, quien ya fue condenado a cadena perpetua en 2015 por dos asesinatos y tres intentos de asesinato. El enfermero se ha confesado culpable de la muerte de hasta 100 pacientes en el juicio iniciado este martes. Högel se ha reconocido culpable de todos los cargos que le imputa la fiscalía en este nuevo juicio por asesinato múltiple entre los años 2000 y 2005.
Los crímenes de Högel, considerado el mayor asesino en serie de la historia criminal alemana desde la Segunda Guerra Mundial, salieron a relucir en verano de 2005, tras ser sorprendido por una compañera de trabajo cuando envenenaba a un paciente. A raíz de este descubrimiento se abrieron diligencias contra él, en el curso de las cuales se revelaron decenas de muertes en circunstancias sospechosas.
El acusado ha descrito con detalle la tensión que vivía ante lo que podía suceder cuando inyectaba a los pacientes el medicamento, lo bien que se sentía cuando conseguía reanimarlos y lo deprimido que le dejaban las muertes. Cuando un paciente moría, Högel, según su relato, se prometía no provocar más casos mortales, pero sus buenos propósitos "se desvanecían con el tiempo". También ha admitido que actuó por aburrimiento y para demostrar su valía ante sus colegas.
El juicio comenzó con un minuto de silencio para, según el juez Bührtmann, recordar y rendir un tardío homenaje a todas las víctimas, independientemente de si Hölger tuvo algo que ver con sus muertes o no. El enfermero mató, según la fiscalía, a más de 100 pacientes de entre 34 y 96 años en las clínicas de Delmenhorst y Oldenburg.
"Los crímenes se cometieron por bajos motivos y de forma insidiosa”, ha dicho la fiscal Daniela Schiereck-Bohlmann al comienzo del juicio, al recordar que el enfermero inyectaba a los pacientes dosis letales de medicamentos que alteraban el ritmo cardiaco, para después tratar de reanimarlos con el fin de impresionar a sus compañeros de trabajo y también para ofrecer una imagen de héroe.
Tras ser condenado a cadena perpetua en 2015, los investigadores decidieron continuar con las pesquisas. Tras los resultados, se abrió una nueva acusación formal por 106 asesinatos, de los cuales se ha llegado a dar por probados un centenar. Las investigaciones policiales y de la fiscalía relacionan al enfermero con la muerte de casi 70 pacientes de la clínica de Delmenhorst, donde trabajaba. Las víctimas recibieron sobredosis de medicamentos como Ajmalin, Sotalol y Lidocain. También se le relaciona con las muertes de otra treintena de pacientes en una clínica de Oldenburg donde había ejercido anteriormente.
El secreto de Hölger fue revelado a comienzos de 2015: según un informe psiquiátrico, el enfermero confesó haber matado a unos 30 enfermos, además de reconocer su autoría en los cinco casos que le imputaba la fiscalía. Según el especialista que presentó el informe, Hölger también había confesado que unos 60 pacientes habían sobrevivido a sus inyecciones.
El hombre fue condenado a cadena perpetua y todo parecía indicar que el caso había quedado cerrado para siempre. Pero, poco después, comenzó a jactarse, ante otros reos, de haber matado a más pacientes. “Después de haber matado a cincuenta enfermos dejé de contar”, decía. La revelación llegó a oídos de la fiscalía, que retomó la investigación, esta vez para aclarar la muerte de 174 pacientes en dichas dos clínicas. Tras descubrir que todas las muertes habían ocurrido en un turno en el que trabajaba Hölger, la fiscalía decidió llevar nuevamente al enfermero ente un juez.
Fue necesario exhumar a todos los fallecidos, algunos de las cuales habían sido enterrados en Turquía, para poder determinar la presencia de esas sustancias y su posible muerte por sobredosis.
Más de 120 familiares de las víctimas han asistido al juicio este martes. El Tribunal de Primera Instancia de Oldenburg ha tenido que trasladar la audiencia a un pabellón más grande debido a la gran afluencia de público.

Es sospechoso de ser uno de los asesinos seriales más prolíficos de la Alemania de posguerra.
El exenfermero alemán Niels Högel, de 41 años, confesó este martes haber matado a 100 de sus pacientes en el inicio de su juicio en la ciudad de Oldenbuerg.
Según los investigadores, el motivo del enfermero era impresionar a sus colegas intentando resucitar a pacientes a los que le había dado dosis letales de fármacos para el corazón.
Högel ya cumple cadena perpetua por matar a dos personas que estaban a su cuidado.
El actual juicio, que se espera que dure hasta el mes de mayo, sigue a las pruebas toxicológicas practicadas en otros cuerpos, que sugerían que Högel mató al menos a 100 pacientes en dos hospitales donde trabajó, 36 de ellos en Oldenbuerg y 64 en Delmenhorst, entre 1999 y 2005.
El caso es sensible para las autoridades sanitarias alemanas, que han sido acusadas por los familiares de las víctimas de cerrar los ojos ante la actividad criminal de Högel.
Los investigadores dicen incluso que pudo haber matado a más pacientes, pero muchas de esas víctimas potenciales fueron cremadas.
El caso
Högel fue capturado por primera vez en 2005 cuando inyectaba medicamentos no recetados a un paciente en Delmenhorst. En 2008 fue condenado a siete años de cárcel por intento de asesinato.
En 2015, un segundo juicio lo encontró culpable de dos asesinatos y dos intentos de asesinato y recibió la pena máxima. En ese juicio admitió haber matado a unas 30 personas y la indagatoria se amplió.
Derechos de autor de la imagen Getty Images Image caption En 2015, Niels Högel admitió haber matado a unas 30 personas.
El equipo toxicológico exhumó los cadáveres de 130 pacientes para buscar restos del fármaco que pudo haber colapsado sus sistemas cardiovasculares.
También examinaron los registros en los hospitales donde Högel trabajó.
Los archivos de la clínica de Oldenburg mostraron que las tasas de muertes y resucitaciones habían aumentado cuando Högel estaba de guardia, reportó la revista alemana Der Spiegel.
Aún así, el cuidador recibió una buena referencia y se fue a trabajar a un hospital en la ciudad cercana de Delmenhorst, donde un número inusual de pacientes murió mientras él estaba de turno.
Hasta que uno de sus colegas notó que un paciente previamente estable había desarrollado palpitaciones irregulares.
Högel estaba en la habitación cuando hubo que resucitar al paciente y el otro enfermero que estaba ahí encontró cajas de medicinas vacías en el basurero, señaló Der Spiegel.
Durante el juicio de 2015, Högel dijo que "realmente lo sentía" y que esperaba que las familias encontraran paz.

Un enfermero que cumple una sentencia de cadena perpetua por dos asesinatos y que está siendo procesado por la muerte de otros 100 pacientes en dos hospitales en Alemania admitió hoy haber asesinado a más de 100 pacientes, lo que lo convierte en uno de los mayores asesinos en serie de la historia alemana.
El juicio contra Niels Högel se llevó a cabo este martes (30.10.2018) en la ciudad de Oldenburg, en el noroeste de Alemania. Los cargos de asesinato en su contra provienen del tiempo en que trabajó en un hospital en Oldenburg, entre 1999 y 2002, y en otro hospital cercano, en Delmenhorst, de 2003 a 2005. El enfermero confesó hoy todos los crímenes en el inicio del juicio. Al ser preguntado por el Tribunal si son verdad todos los actos que se le imputan, el acusado contestó con un "sí".
Más de 120 familiares de las víctimas asistieron al juicio hoy, ya que querían saber cómo y por qué sus familiares tuvieron que morir. El Tribunal de Primera Instancia de Oldemburgo ha trasladado el juicio a un pabellón más grande debido al gran número de espectadores.
Högel fue condenado en 2015 por dos asesinatos y dos intentos de asesinato. Durante ese juicio, dijo que provocó intencionalmente crisis cardíacas en unos 90 pacientes en Delmenhorst porque disfrutaba de la sensación de poder reanimarlos.
Más tarde dijo a los investigadores que también mató a pacientes en Oldenburg.
Högel fue descubierto en 2005 por una enfermera en Delmenhorst cuando quiso darle un medicamento no prescrito a un paciente. El enfermero suministraba medicamentos a los pacientes que desencadenaban fallos cardíacos o insuficiencia circulatoria y a continuación los reanimaba para parecer un héroe ante sus colegas. Sin embargo, esto no siempre funcionaba.

AFP - Lundi 25 février, 19h09
Par Par Dorothée MOISAN
PARIS (AFP) - Appelé à la rescousse par Nicolas Sarkozy, le premier président de la Cour de cassation a accepté de se pencher sur la question de la rétention de sûreté mais a fermé la porte à toute remise en cause de la décision du Conseil constitutionnel, qui en a rejeté la rétroactivité.
Le premier magistrat de France, Vincent Lamanda , "a accepté le principe d'une réflexion sur le problème de la récidive et de la protection des victimes, mais il est bien évident qu'il n'est pas question de remettre en cause la décision du Conseil constitutionnel", a expliqué lundi Vincent Vigneau, chargé de mission de la première présidence.
Le Conseil constitutionnel a estimé jeudi que la rétention de sûreté "ne saurait être appliquée à des personnes condamnées avant la publication de la loi" ou "pour des faits commis antérieurement" à cette publication.
Ainsi, les premières rétentions de sûreté ne pourraient être prononcées que dans 15 ans au minimum. Le principe de retenir enfermés les criminels réputés les plus dangereux, après l'expiration de leur peine, n'est en effet applicable qu'aux détenus condamnés à plus de 15 ans.
Un camouflet pour l'Elysée qui a réagi dès vendredi soir, annonçant que le chef de l'Etat avait demandé à Vincent Lamanda "de faire toutes les propositions nécessaires" pour parvenir à "l'application immédiate de la rétention de sûreté".
"Il s'agit pour nous d'améliorer" le projet de loi "sans remettre en cause la décision du Conseil constitutionnel", s'est défendue lundi matin la garde des Sceaux, Rachida Dati, faisant valoir que, sur la base de propositions de M. Lamanda, les modalités pourraient être "ajustées" ou "modifiées par la voie d'une circulaire, d'un décret ou peut-être par la loi".
La fin de non-recevoir affichée lundi par Vincent Lamanda était pourtant plus que prévisible, dès lors que l'article 62 de la Constitution stipule que "les décisions du Conseil constitutionnel ne sont susceptibles d'aucun recours" et "s'imposent aux pouvoirs publics et à toute autre autorité administrative et juridictionnelle", Cour de cassation comprise.
Partant de ce principe, "il est bien évident que la mission (confiée à M. Lamanda, ndlr) ne peut avoir pour objet de contredire la décision du Conseil constitutionnel", a estimé Didier Maus, de l'Association française du droit constitutionnel.
Un autre "constitutionnaliste", Frédéric Rolin, professeur de droit public à Paris X-Nanterre, s'est dit surpris: "C'est la première fois qu'on saisit officiellement une autorité pour lui dire +Trouvez-moi un moyen de dire exactement le contraire de ce que vient de dire le Conseil constitutionnel+. Ca ne s'est jamais fait dans des termes aussi frontaux".
Côté UMP, on tente de calmer le jeu. En saisissant Vincent Lamanda, Nicolas Sarkozy ne voulait que "vérifier les modalités juridiques d'application" de la rétention de sûreté, a affirmé le porte-parole, Yves Jego.
M. Lamanda, lui, s'il n'a pas suivi le conseil de l'ancien garde des Sceaux socialiste Robert Badinter, de "refuser" cette mission, a veillé à en tracer les limites.
Une décision qui a réjoui l'Union syndicale des magistrats (USM, majoritaire), satisfaite qu'il ait "remis les choses en place de manière claire et sans ambiguïté".
Le Syndicat de la magistrature (SM, gauche), qui a obtenu un rendez-vous le 4 mars avec M. Lamanda, a pour sa part averti de "sa ferme opposition à toute forme de collaboration de l'autorité judiciaire qui viserait à cautionner le non respect de la Constitution".

"Je suis favorable à la mise à disposition des autotests de dépistage du virus du sida". Interviewée hier sur Europe 1, la ministre de la Santé a annoncé la prochaine commercialisation de ces produits en France, qui permettent chez soi, en quelques secondes, de dépister une éventuelle séropositivité.
"Il y a aujourd'hui environ 30.000 personnes en France qui sont séropositives sans le savoir et donc la priorité pour moi est de tout mettre en œuvre pour favoriser le dépistage." a expliqué Marisol Touraine. L’Agence Nationale de Sécurité du médicament et des produits de santé (ANSM) et la Haute Autorité de Santé (HAS) seront chargées d'organiser cette commercialisation, qui devra s'intégrer "dans la stratégie globale de prévention et de dépistage du VIH".
En soulignant que ces autotests n'étaient "pas une solution miracle, mais un outil complémentaire", la ministre vient néanmoins de briser un tabou. La France refuse depuis de longues années leur commercialisation. Ces autotests sont en vente libre depuis 1996 aux Etats-Unis.

Coup d'envoi du Sidaction: Touraine favorable aux autotests
PARIS — La ministre de la Santé est favorable à la mise à disposition en France des autotests de dépistage du sida (que l'on peut faire soi-même), a indiqué le ministère de la santé vendredi, date de lancement du Sidaction sur les radios et les télévisions.
Ces autotests - réalisés sur une goutte de sang ou un échantillon de salive avec obtention du résultat en 20 à 30 minutes - ne vont pas être tout de suite disponibles, selon le ministère: les fabricants devront en effet obtenir le "marquage CE" de conformité au règlement européen, et devra être mis en place "un dispositif spécifique d'information et d'accompagnement des utilisateurs, dans la mesure où les résultats des tests doivent être confirmés par un tests sanguin classique".
Aux Etats-Unis, où ces tests sont déjà vendus, des lignes téléphonique permanentes 24h/24h sont à la disposition des usagers.
"Ce n'est pas une solution miracle, mais un outil complémentaire", a commenté la ministre Marisol Touraine sur Europe 1. Ils devraient contribuer à encourager au dépistage. En effet, "près de 30.000 personnes vivent en France avec le VIH sans le savoir", rappelle le ministère.
Le Conseil national du Sida (CNS) a rendu un avis favorable à la commercialisation de ces autotests de dépistage du VIH, tandis que le Comité consultatif national d'éthique (CCNE) a insisté sur la nécessité de l'encadrer d'une série de précautions pour éviter des erreurs d'interprétation des résultats ou un usage forcé de tels tests.
Compte tenu des recommandations formulées par le CNS et le CCNE, la ministre "poursuit la procédure d'évaluation" et saisit l'agence des produits de santé (ANSM) pour avis sur l'accompagnement des utilisateurs, ainsi que la Haute Autorité de Santé (HAS) pour savoir comment ces autotests pourraient s'intégrer dans la stratégie globale de prévention et de dépistage du VIH, selon un communiqué du ministère.
La ministre rappelle qu'il ne s'agira "en aucun cas de substituer les autotests aux traditionnels dépistages par voie sanguine -notamment effectués dans les centres de dépistage anonymes et gratuits (CDAG) - ni aux tests rapides d'orientation diagnostique (TROD, réalisés par des associations). Les auto-tests ne peuvent constituer qu'un outil de plus pour favoriser le dépistage."
Elle rappelle encore l'importance de la prévention, alors que 6.100 personnes ont découvert leur séropositivité en France en 2011 (chiffres InVS).
L'association Warning, qui milite pour ces autotests, s'est félicitée de l'avis favorable de la ministre de la santé.
Pendant ce weekend de mobilisation du Sidaction, les dons sont recueillis par téléphone (110, numéro d'appel gratuit), par internet (www.sidaction.org), par SMS (en tapant DON au 33 000, message non surtaxé) et par courrier (Sidaction 228, rue du Faubourg Saint-Martin 75010 Paris).

MADRID, Spain (CNN) -- A car bomb explosion at a civil guard barracks in northern Spain killed a guard member and wounded four others Wednesday, a Basque regional police spokeswoman told CNN.
Police cordon off a road near the scene of the deadly blast in Spain's Basque region.
There was no immediate claim of responsibility, but authorities blamed the Basque separatist group ETA, said the spokeswoman.
No warning preceded the blast around 3 a.m. local time in Legutiano, a town in the Basque region of Spain, the spokeswoman said.
The wounded paramilitary guards included two men and two women.
Parliamentary leaders in Madrid were to meet later Wednesday to issue a statement of condemnation. Watch video from the blast scene »
"We want to make it clear to the ETA terrorist group that all of the democratic parties are closing ranks to finish off the ETA terrorist group. I express my condolences to the families of the victims," Jose Antonio Alonso, the Socialist majority leader in Parliament, told Spanish radio network SER.
The guardsman who died -- a 41-year-old married father -- was the sixth person to die as a result of ETA violence since the group ended a unilateral cease-fire with a bombing that killed two people at Madrid's airport in December 2006, according to authorities.
ETA is blamed for more than 800 deaths since beginning its fight for Basque independence in 1968. The U.S. and EU list ETA as a terrorist organization.

Policeman Pinuel-Villalon was trapped under the rubble A policeman was killed and four people injured when a car bomb exploded in Spain's northern Basque region. No group has said it carried out the attack, but the region's governor blamed the Basque separatist group Eta. Juan Jose Ibarretxe said the group was ruining the name of the Basque people with its campaign of violence. The bomb exploded outside a police barracks in the small town of Legutiano, near the Basque regional capital Vitoria. If confirmed, it would be Eta's first fatal attack since Spain's general election two months ago, and the sixth since Eta broke a ceasefire in 2006. More attacks "I want to tell Eta not to ruin the name of the Basque people by using us as an excuse for extortion and murder," Mr Ibarretxe told reporters. "We're sick of your violence," he added. Dozens of people were evacuated from the scene of the blast The dead man, named as Juan Manuel Pinuel-Villalon, 41, died after being trapped under rubble. Four other people, civil guards and police, were wounded. One is said to have serious injuries. Parts of the roof of the barracks were blown off in the pre-dawn blast. Some 40 people, including women and children, were in the compound when the bomb went off, officials said. No warning was issued before the attack. The bombing, 15km (9 miles) from Vitoria, comes as the country embarks on a new parliamentary cycle. Eta had already staged several low-level attacks following the Socialists' election victory in March. Eta was blamed for a bomb blast in April in the Basque city of Bilbao, which wounded seven policemen. The group said it was behind the murder of a former Socialist councillor outside his home, two days before the 9 March general election. Are you in the area?

Un garde civil a été tué et quatre autres blessés, mercredi 14 mai, dans un attentat à la fourgonnette piégée, perpétré dans une caserne à Legutiano, au Pays basque espagnol, a indiqué une porte-parole de la police basque. La puissante explosion, qui porte la marque d'ETA, a eu lieu peu avant 3 heures du matin, heure locale (2 heures, heure de Paris) mais n'a "pas été précédée par un appel d'avertissement préalable" au nom de l'organisation indépendantiste basque armée, a ajouté cette porte-parole. La responsabilité d'ETA dans cet attentat "est l'hypothèse que nous privilégions", a-t-elle précisé, ajoutant que toutes les victimes étaient des gardes civils. L'attentat n'a cependant pas été revendiqué.
L'organisation indépendantiste basque a déjà perpétré dans le passé de nombreux attentats contre des casernes de la garde civile, qui n'ont jamais été précédés d'une alerte téléphonique, contrairement à ce qu'elle fait généralement lorsqu'elle place des bombes pouvant coûter la vie de civils. Trois personnes blessées dans la caserne de Legutiano ont été rapidement transportées à l'hôpital. Deux hommes de la garde civile ont été retrouvés sous les décombres, l'un mort, l'autre blessé, selon la police régionale basque.
Le ministre de l'intérieur, Alfredo Perez Rubalcaba, doit se rendre sur les lieux de l'attentat, mercredi matin, a indiqué une porte-parole de la préfecture de Vitoria. Le commando à l'origine de cet attentat a pris la fuite à bord d'un véhicule qui a été retrouvé par la police basque dans la localité d'Abadino, à quelques kilomètres de là, a précisé la police basque. Cet attentat porte toutes les marques du groupe ETA, responsable de plus de huit cent vingt morts en quarante ans de lutte armée pour l'indépendance du Pays basque. ETA a mis fin officiellement en juin 2007 à un "cessez-le-feu permanent" long de quinze mois, après l'échec d'une tentative de dialogue avec le gouvernement socialiste espagnol, et a perpétré depuis une vingtaine d'attentats, dans lesquels trois personnes sont mortes.

El ministro del Interior, Alfredo Pérez Rubalcaba, ha calificado de "especialmente malvado" el atentado cometido la pasada madrugada por ETA en la casa cuartel de Legutiano (Álava), en el que ha muerto un agente y otros cuatro han resultado heridos. Con él, ETA ha "pensado en producir una masacre", ya que en en el edificio había 29 personas, cinco de ellas niños. Los investigadores sospechan que los autores son miembros del comando Vizcaya, que programaron el potente estallido, de más 100 kilos de explosivo colocados en una furgoneta frente a la casa cuartel, con muy poco tiempo para huir.
El agente muerto en el atentado, perpetrado a las tres de la madrugada en esta localidad a 17 kilómetros de Vitoria, es Juan Manuel Piñuel Villalón, de 41 años y natural de M

Der chinesische Volkskongress hat mit überwältigender Mehrheit beschlossen, dem Vorschlag des Zentralkomitee der Kommunistischen Partei Chinas zu folgen und die Begrenzung der Amtszeit des Präsidenten aufzuheben. 2.958 Delegierte sprachen sich dafür aus, die Formulierung, wonach "Präsident und Vizepräsident nicht mehr als zwei aufeinanderfolgende Amtszeiten dienen sollen", aus der Verfassung zu streichen. Zwei Delegierte stimmten gegen das Vorhaben, drei enthielten sich und eine Stimme war ungültig. Bisher konnte der Präsident maximal zweimal für fünf Jahre amtieren. Seit Bestehen der Volksrepublik hat der Chinesische Volkskongress noch nie eine Vorlage der Kommunistischen Partei abgelehnt.
Insgesamt baut Präsident Xi Jinping damit seine Macht weiter aus. So wird auch sein "Gedankengut für das neue Zeitalter des Sozialismus chinesischer Prägung" als neue Leitlinie in der Präambel der Staatsverfassung verankert. Kritik an Xi Jinping könnte damit als verfassungswidrig betrachtet werden. Insgesamt hatte seit dem Staatsgründer Mao Zedong kein anderer Politiker in der Geschichte der Volksrepublik so viel Macht in den Händen wie Xi Jinping, der als Präsident auch Chef von mehr als einem halben Dutzend Sonderkommissionen ist. Diese befassen sich mit Themen wie der nationalen Sicherheit oder der Außenpolitik.
Experten warnen allerdings vor der Machtfülle von Xi Jinping, der langfristig den Bezug zur Realität verlieren könnte. "Der Führer zentralisiert die Macht über Armee, Partei und Regierung – ohne zeitliche Begrenzung", sagte der in Ungnade gefallene frühere Vize-Chefredakteur des Magazins der Parteihochschule, Deng Yuwen. "Niemand kann diesen großen Führer noch bremsen." Auch in der Außenpolitik wird Xi Jinping nun "aggressiver und abenteuerlicher" vorgehen. "Wir stellen schon einen härteren Kurs fest", sagte ein Diplomat. So sei der Ton im Umgang mit Taiwan, das Peking als abtrünnige Provinz betrachtet, "schärfer" geworden.
Neue nationale Aufsichtskommission darf unabhängig von der Justiz agieren
Neben der unbegrenzten Amtszeit für den Präsidenten schufen die Delegierten auch eine neue nationale Aufsichtskommission, die mit weitreichenden Befugnissen unabhängig von der Justiz die bisherige Kontrolle der Parteimitglieder auf alle Staatsbediensteten ausweitet. "Es wird ein Werkzeug, um die absolute politische Kontrolle abzusichern, indem Feinde verfolgt und potenzielle Gegner eingeschüchtert werden", sagte der China-Experte Gordon Chang. Die Kommission kann zusammen mit lokalen Unterkommissionen gegen Korruption, Dienstvergehen oder allzu lockere Umsetzung politischer Ziele vorgehen.
Mit der unbegrenzten Alleinherrschaft Xi Jinpings endet das bisherige "kollektive Führungsmodell". Ursprüngliche sollte die Amtszeitbegrenzung auf zehn Jahre die Rückkehr zu einer langjährigen Diktatur wie der unter Mao Zedong von 1966 bis 1976 verhindern. Mao hatte das Land über verheerende Kampagnen wie den "Großen Sprung nach vorn" mit Millionen von Toten oder die Kulturrevolution ins Chaos gestürzt. Danach wurde die Macht verteilt. Amtszeiten wurden begrenzt, Altersgrenzen eingeführt. 2002 kam es zum ersten friedlichen Machtübergang, als sich Jiang Zemin nach zehn Jahren zurückzog und seinem ausgesuchten Nachfolger Hu Jintao Platz machte. Ähnlich räumte dieser das Feld, als 2012 der bis dahin wenig bekannte Xi Jinping nachrückte. Jedes Mal erneuerte, verjüngte sich das System, womit Experten auch seine erstaunliche Widerstandsfähigkeit erklärten.
Populär durch den Kampf gegen Korruption
Xi Jinping, der seit 2007 im Ständigen Komitee des Politbüros und damit dem zentralen Machtzirkel der Kommunistischen Partei sitzt, zieht mit der Entscheidung auch eine Lehre aus dem Ende der Sowjetunion. Aus seiner Sicht zerbrach die KPdSU an der Schwäche seiner Führer wie Michail Gorbatschow. Zerfallserscheinungen machte er schon unter seinem schwachen Vorgänger Hu Jintao aus. So erstarkten einzelne Seilschaften und bereicherten sich am System. Xi Jinping wurde durch den Kampf gegen Korruption populär, entledigte sich damit aber auch seiner Gegner und legte alle Macht in die Hände von "Führungsgruppen der Partei".
"Der neue Leitspruch beim Regieren des Landes ist das Verschmelzen von Partei und Staat – statt wie unter Deng Xiaoping eine Trennung der beiden", sagte Matthias Stepan vom China-Institut Merics in Berlin. Auch auf unteren Ebenen sollen die Positionen der Parteisekretäre und leitenden Beamten zusammengelegt werden. "Politische Loyalität und Linientreue wären in diesem Fall die Hauptkriterien der Besetzung solcher Positionen", sagte Stepan. "Das Risiko von Fehlentwicklungen würde damit steigen."

Was die kommunistische Partei Chinas im Februar beschlossen hatten, tritt nun durch den Volkskongress in Gesetzeskraft: Die Amtszeitbeschränkung auf zwei Amtszeiten für den Präsidenten wurde nun in China aufgehoben. Für diese Verfassungsänderung, welche die Macht des derzeitigen Präsidenten Xi Jinping weiter erhöhen wird, sprach sich eine überwältigende Mehrheit der Delegierten aus. Lediglich zwei Delegierte stimmten dagegen.
Weitere Verfassungsänderungen betreffen eine Änderung der Präambel, in der Xi Jinping nun als Vordenker eines chinesischen Sozialismus bezeichnet wird, und die Einrichtung einer neuen, von der Justiz unabhängigen Kontrollbehörde, die die Arbeit von Staatsbeamten überwacht. Kritiker warnen vor einer zu hohen Machtkonzentration durch die Änderungen.

Die Kommunistische Partei in China will die Amtszeiten des Präsident nicht länger auf zwei Perioden begrenzen. Das Zentralkomitee der Partei habe vorgeschlagen, eine entsprechende Richtlinie aus der Verfassung des Landes zu streichen, berichtete die amtliche Nachrichtenagentur Xinhua. Details wurden nicht genannt.
Nicht selten versuchen Regierungschefs, durch Gesetzesänderungen ihre eigene Schaffensperiode zu verlängern. So wird sich Chinas Präsident Xi Jinping womöglich über das Jahr 2023 hinaus an der Macht halten können. Über den Vorschlag, der auch die Amtszeit der Vizepräsidenten betreffen würde, soll Anfang März der Volkskongress abstimmen.
Je länger ein Staatsoberhaupt oder Regierungschef im Amt bleiben darf, desto größer dessen Macht. Denn in der Zeit bis zur Wiederwahl – oder eben bis zur Wahl einer oder eines anderen – können Regierende ihre Netzwerke ausbauen, ihre Unterstützer in wichtige Ämter bringen und politische Änderungen verfestigen. In Deutschland ist die Wiederwahl eines Bundeskanzlers oder einer Bundeskanzlerin unbegrenzt möglich.
Schon jetzt ist Xi mächtiger als mancher Vorgänger
Xi, der zugleich Parteichef ist, übernahm 2013 die Präsidentschaft und würde nach der derzeitigen Rechtslage 2023 aus dem Amt scheiden. Er gilt als der mächtigste Politiker des Landes seit Jahrzehnten.
Im Januar hatte das Zentralkomitee vorgeschlagen, Xis politische Strategie und Philosophie in die chinesische Verfassung aufzunehmen. Bereits im Oktober hatte der 19. Kongress der Kommunistischen Partei Xis "Vorstellungen" in Verbindung mit seinem Namen in die KP-Statuten aufgenommen. Diese Ehre war zu Lebzeiten bis dahin nur dem Republikgründer Mao Zedong zuteilgeworden.
Xi Jinping hatte nach seinem Amtsantritt eine Antikorruptionskampagne gestartet. Kritiker werfen ihm vor, damit auch gegen politische Gegnerinnen und Gegner vorzugehen.

The BBC’s new Director General George Entwistle starts his new job today, taking over from Mark Thompson who’s been in charge at the corporation since 2004.
George Entwistle was previously Director of BBC Vision, with his background in television working on programmes such as Newsnight, Tomorrow’s World and The Culture Show during his 22 years with the corporation.
His appointment is the topic of conversation in many media outlets, including 5 live, where the former BBC Chairman Michael Grade told Stephen Nolan’s programme last night: “I think he cares deeply about the BBC. I think he’s intelligent enough to know how difficult the job is – some would say the job is like being Prime Minister it’s almost impossible. But I think his whole life has been a preparation for this and I think he will carry the respect of the staff because editorially he’s accomplished. I think he’ll be a huge success.”
“In terms of radio I think Local Radio, which was under attack at one point, is more and more important with the demise of local newspapers and local democracy. I think the decentralisation of the BBC out of London is more and more important. The big problem for George will be if Scotland votes for devolution – that’ll be a huge issue for the BBC.”
“I don’t think the market can support commercial radio in speech news, local news, community news – and that’s a huge role for the BBC. I think the BBC’s role in local radio becomes more and more important and easily defined.”
Here’s his first email to everyone on Monday morning:
Dear All, Good morning. On my first day as DG, I wanted to say hello and tell you how nice it feels to be doing the job for real after all those weeks of preparation. Over the next few months I’m going to be getting out and about, visiting as much of the BBC as I can. I’m looking forward to hearing your thoughts about the organisation – and your ideas about how we can make it better. I’ve done an interview for the Radio Times, where I answered readers’ questions, and that comes out tomorrow. But I want you to be the first to hear my plans for the BBC, so please watch my speech if you can tomorrow morning at 11am on the internal ringmain. .. Hope that’s all clear. More from me tomorrow, when I look forward to answering your questions and hearing what you think of my plans. Have a great day. All the best, George Entwistle
Director-General
As Director of Vision, George was responsible for BBC One, BBC Two, BBC Three, BBC Four, BBC One HD, BBC HD, BBC Films, Vision Productions and had editorial oversight for UKTV.
Announcing the appointment in July, BBC Trust Chairman Lord Patten said: “George is a creative leader for a creative organisation.
“His experience of making and delivering great programmes that audiences love – built up through many years of working for the Corporation – will prove invaluable as he and his team work to ensure the BBC remains the greatest broadcaster in the world.
“Above all George is passionate about the BBC, is committed to its public service ethos and has a clear vision for how it can harness the creativity and commitment of its staff to continue to serve audiences in ever more innovative ways.”

On the BBC's , Thompson said Sunday the corporation was "getting very, very close to the edge" following recent sixteen per cent real-terms budget reductions. "When you look around the operation, it's very hard to see what more you can cut," he said.
Negotiations about the UK's are a prominent issue for Entwistle to deal with between 2015–2016. The licence fee in the country currently stands at 145.50 (about 236 or 181) per house.

"I think the BBC will continue to wrestle with that challenge. How do you get the best sports rights, the best presenters, and the best creative leaders, and do that in a way that is acceptable to the public."
The salary of Entwistle, who is scheduled to meet with programme creators and staff at the BBC this week, will reportedly be £450,000 (US$730,000 or €560,000), considerably less than that of Thompson who, in his final year, made £622,000 (US$1,009,000 or €773,000).

George Entwistle starts work as director-general of the BBC today and is expected to explain his vision of the corporation’s future to staff later in the week.
The 50-year-old takes over from Mark Thompson who will become president and chief executive of the New York Times Company in November.
Mr Entwistle will take on a much-reduced salary of £450,000, a £200,000-plus reduction on that paid to the outgoing boss.
He will send a short e-mail message to staff today, but is expected to speak at greater length and outline some of the challenges facing the corporation in a speech a few days later.
He will meet BBC staff and programme-makers this week.
Among the challenges he faces are maintaining quality and staff morale with less money than his predecessor had for much of his time at the top and negotiating the renewal of the BBC charter in 2016.
He has previously been a current affairs programme-maker and until recently was in charge of the corporation’s TV output as head of BBC Vision.
When his appointment was announced in July, BBC Trust chairman Lord Patten said both he and Entwistle thought there was room for improvement and they agreed the BBC could be “10 per cent or 20 per cent better” despite the cuts brought in after the latest licence fee settlement.

Mark Thompson leaves BBC with licence fee warning
Please turn on JavaScript. Media requires JavaScript to play.

In his last day in office, BBC director general Mark Thompson has reiterated his belief that the corporation should not face further budget cuts.
Appearing on the Andrew Marr show, Mr Thompson said the BBC was "getting very, very close to the edge" after the latest round of cost-cutting.
"When you look around... it's very hard to see what more you can cut."
The licence fee is up for negotiation in 2015-16. The settlement will be a key issue for Mr Thompson's successor.
Mr Thompson has taken a job at the New York Times
The outgoing director general said he still believed in "the idea of gathering public money together... to create really high quality content", despite large upheavals in the way people consume media.
At the moment, the licence fee is £145.50 per household. The figure was frozen for six years in 2010, resulting in a 16% real terms cut in BBC funds.
Mr Thompson said that, although the freeze had led to job cuts and the loss of some services, the BBC could not have ignored the wider economic situation in the UK.
"In the end, you can't want to be the national broadcaster and not go through some of the same experiences as the rest of the country."
He added the 16% cuts were in line with other "cultural institutions" like the British Museum and the National Theatre.
George Entwistle was formerly head of BBC Vision, which oversees the corporation's TV content
George Entwistle, formerly the director of BBC Vision, will take over from Mr Thompson on Monday morning.
One of his first appointments will be to visit the breakfast show on BBC 6 Music - the station earmarked, and then saved, from closure during Thompson's tenure.
Mr Entwistle will be paid much less than his predecessor, who earned £622,000 in his final year.
High salaries for the BBC's executives and star talent was a hot button issue for Mr Thompson, whose own salary dropped by about 25% during his eight years in office.
He acknowledged there was a "particular sensitivity" about how the BBC spends the licence fee.
"What the BBC tries to do in the way it runs itself, is it tries to be sensitive to what its owners, the British public, thinks.
"There's no question that we've seen over the last eight years, not just with the BBC but with the whole of public life, a real change in attitudes to these things, and we've tried to respond to it.
"I think the BBC will continue to wrestle with that challenge. How do you get the best sports rights, the best presenters, and the best creative leaders, and do that in a way that is acceptable to the public."

In the case of equality at any stage of the Season, positions at that stage of the season shall be determined firstly by the number of wins achieved and then on the basis of match points differential. A Club with a larger number of wins shall be placed higher than a Club with the same number of league points but fewer wins.
If Clubs have equal league points and equal number of wins then a Club with a larger difference between match points "for" and match points "against" shall be placed higher in the Premiership League than a Club with a smaller difference between match points "for" and match points "against".
Should two Clubs have the same number of league points and the same match points difference, the Club having scored more match points "for" shall be placed higher in the Premiership League than the Club having the lesser number of match points "for".
If the above does not establish different Premiership League positions then the Club in the higher position shall be the Club that has achieved the higher aggregate match points scored by it in the same season against the other Club.
If this still does not establish the position then the Club who has won the most matches, excluding its first Premiership League match of the season, then its second Premiership League match and so on, until it can be established which the higher placed Club is.

Efforts to bring the perpetrator to justice are a natural corollary of the commission of crime. If someone steals from a newsagent, we assume the thief will be investigated and face the courts, perhaps to receive a sentence of community service or more; if a drunk-driver kills a pedestrian, that driver's actions will be investigated and perhaps deserve a prison sentence. But what if the case involves acting illegally but out of love and compassion: what if the law has not kept pace with modern life and modern science?
This is the case with the law regarding assisted dying – and it was the aim of the Commission on Assisted Dying, which reports this week, to investigate the current law on this subject and ask whether it needs to be changed. It does.
Assisting someone to die is illegal. The aiding or abetting of another's suicide, which could include the facilitation of travel to another country where it is legal, is punishable under the Suicide Act 1961 by up to 14 years' imprisonment. However, despite more than 30 cases being brought before the Crown Prosecution Service since February 2010, there have been no prosecutions.
So that's all right then? No, it isn't. The discretion over whether to prosecute, at present, resides with one individual at the top of the Crown Prosecution Service. However, the Director of Public Prosecutions cannot make any ruling until a full police investigation has taken place, which means that those involved in such cases not only have to deal with their grief but must also do so under the threat of prosecution and imprisonment, the possibility of arrest and the certainty of intrusive searches of property and questioning.
I am no stranger to the difficult decisions that police officers face on a daily basis. But the evidence I have seen during my time on the Commission on Assisted Dying has convinced me that the law as it currently stands is failing both those whom it seeks to protect and those tasked with enforcing it.
As a commission, we heard how Alan Cutkelvin Rees travelled with his partner, Raymond Cutkelvin, to Dignitas in 2007. When he returned alone, living with the threat of a visit from the police proved too much. He was forced to pursue a very public means to seek closure and begin his grieving. "Come and arrest me," Rees said through the Evening Standard, and, sure enough, the police reacted. Until this point, though the police had been made aware of Mr Cutkelvin Rees's experience, they had not investigated the issue, but he knew of no reason why they should not begin to do so at any time.
The difficulty faced by police officers was made clear in the evidence presented by Detective Inspector Adrian Todd and Detective Constable Michelle Cook, of West Mercia Police, who investigated the case of Daniel James. At the age of 23, James, who had suffered a catastrophic spinal injury playing rugby, chose to travel to Switzerland accompanied by his parents. The officers' investigation into Mr and Mrs James's role in assisting Daniel to end his life there clashed directly with their natural human empathy for the family and placed them in an impossible position. DI Todd told the commission that James's parents "were really concerned, they genuinely thought they were going to go to prison. There was nothing we could say to them that would reassure them because we didn't know". In the end, Mr and Mrs James were met with no charges, but this did little to assuage the fear and grief they had been left to suffer in the interim six weeks it took to discover whether or not they would face legal action.
But there is worse. The testimony of Chris Broad before the commission was one of the most poignant of many moving and terrible stories. His wife, Michelle, decided not to tell him or anyone else exactly when she had decided to die, nor to have anyone with her, including Chris, when she did so, for fear that that would increase his chances of being prosecuted. It was obvious that the thought that she had died alone, uncomforted, was a bitter additional aspect of her husband's grief.
I am proud to say that, in each case, the police officers were praised for the sensitivity that accompanied their professionalism. But this does not mean that we should be satisfied with the current arrangement.
The incoherence of the current law on assisted suicide also drew criticism from healthcare professionals. In particular they focused on the lack of clarity about which actions constitute "assistance" under the DPP guidelines, and whether, for example, providing Dignitas with medical information about a patient could make professionals liable for prosecution. As it stands, the Medical Protection Society advises doctors that they can provide medical records, but not a report. However, other legal experts offer conflicting advice, and the law does not explain whether it is the duty of a doctor to inform the authorities about someone's intention to seek an assisted suicide. As Dr Lillian Field of the MPS put it: "Should they disclose? When should they disclose? What is their position in relation to the law in this regard?" Healthcare professionals are caught between the nebulous state of the law and a presumed duty of confidentiality to the patient.
This snapshot of evidence received by the commission on the legal and psychological challenges facing those already in distressing circumstances describes a system that is incoherent and unsafe. At a time when they should be grieving, under the current system relatives of loved ones are forced into a world of uncertainty that leaves the police and prosecutors torn between good practice and natural human sympathy. The current settlement relies on people taking a leap of faith that the DPP will respond compassionately, trading off their respect for a loved one's dignity against the fear of prison.
The approach of the current DPP, Keir Starmer, to this sensitive issue has been rightly compassionate, but another DPP could change the guidance. We are in a situation where the letter of the law prescribes severe punishment, and yet our civilised society rightly fails to have the stomach to prescribe it.
The Commission on Assisted Dying will have many recommendations – and many caveats – to make when it reports later this week. The creation of a humane, coherent and enforceable framework of law will be one of them.

Charles Falconer, ex Lord Canciller del Reino Unido, ha apoyado la Comisión de Muerte Asistida.
La Comisión de Muerte Asistida del Reino Unido, creada por el ''think-tank'' Demos en el año 2010, apoyará un cambio en la ley británica para que sea legal que alguien solicite un suicidio asistido, cuando publique su informe final el jueves.
La Comisión ha sido dirigida por el ex lord canciller Charles Falconer y cuenta con miembros de la profesión médica, de los grupos de defensa del paciente, políticos como el conservador Penny Mordaunt y un clérigo, James Woodword, canónigo de la Capilla de San Jorge (Castillo de Windsor).
La filósofa Mary Warnock, que apoya la provisión de muerte asistida, dijo que el Parlamento tiene el “deber moral” de cambiar la ley. Ian Blair, ex comisionado de la Policía Metropolitana de Londres, también sirvió a la Comisión y ha declarado que apoya un cambio en la ley, ya que actualmente coloca a los oficiales de policía en la difícil situación de la investigación de casos de suicidio asistido, con miembros de familia frente a la incertidumbre en cuanto a si el Director del Ministerio Público presentaría cargos. Blair también describió como “incoherente” la posición actual de los médicos ante la ley, que es clara en cuanto a qué es exactamente lo que cuenta como “ayudar” a un suicidio.
David Cameron, Primer Ministro británico, se ha opuesto al cambio de la ley de muerte asistida. Escribió en 2006: “No creo que debamos pasar esta línea y no debemos permitir a los médicos u otras personas de manera positiva que aceleren la muerte ... porque creo que las consecuencias a largo plazo de permitir dicha acción muy probablemente sean peligrosas para la sociedad”.

Helping terminally ill people to commit suicide should be made legal under strict new safeguards, a major independent report is expected to recommend this week.
The eagerly awaited advice from the Commission on Assisted Dying, chaired by Lord Falconer, a former lord chancellor, is likely to criticise the current legal framework and suggest that, in some cases, those who encourage or assist another to die should no longer be threatened with prosecution.
The report is expected to recommend that assisted dying be legalised only for a very limited category of terminally ill patients and under procedures that are rigorously monitored. It is likely to suggest tight controls on how and when lethal medicines are prescribed for use in assisted suicide. Procedures to ensure that those involved are made fully aware of all the palliative and social care available to them are also likely to be spelt out.
The report is certain to reignite the fierce debate between advocates and opponents of euthanasia.
Writing in today's Observer, Baroness Warnock, a leading expert in medical ethics, backs a change to the law, which currently leaves someone who assists in the suicide of a friend or loved one liable to up to 14 years in prison.
Warnock says that if parliament does not change the law – if "aiding or abetting suicide remains a form of murder" – then "the only remedy is to follow the Law Society's long-standing advice and change the law of murder".
Opponents of assisted dying say that the commission, which has members from medicine, law, academia, the police and politics, is packed with euthanasia supporters. But Warnock, who is not on the commission, says it has interviewed expert witnesses "thoroughly and conscientiously".
The commission is funded by the author Sir Terry Pratchett, who has Alzheimer's disease, and by Bernard Lewis, founder of the River Island fashion chain, who backs reform.
Among the most emotional evidence was that given by police officers investigating the death of 23-year-old Dan James, who had played rugby for England as a teenager. James committed suicide in a Swiss clinic after having become paralysed from the chest down in a training accident. After his death his parents contacted police to admit that they had helped him achieve his wish to end "a second-class existence" by taking him abroad – despite praying to the last, and urging him to change his mind. The police had to investigate and the Jameses underwent three hour-long interviews each by officers days after their son's funeral. The case against them was eventually dropped.
Although the current law is clear that assisting someone to die is illegal, the director of public prosecutions, Keir Starmer, has produced guidelines to clarify when an individual might not face prosecution. These suggest that relatives acting on compassionate grounds are unlikely to go to jail, but those acting in a professional capacity, such as doctors or nurses, are much more likely to face charges.
Those backing a change in the law accept they are unlikely to convince the current government to push their recommendations through parliament. But they hope the report will help make the case for change. David Cameron made clear in 2006 that he opposed moves to change the law in parliament to legalise assisted dying.
A Ministry of Justice spokesperson said: "The government believes that any change to the law in this emotive and contentious area is an issue of individual conscience and a matter for parliament to decide, rather than government policy."
Warnock says today that the status quo is not satisfactory. "For one thing, it [the law] classes together the actions of some one who broadcasts encouragement to suicide to the world at large with one who agonisingly decides that, out of compassion, when asked to do so, he must help a person he loves to escape from suffering. For another thing, the only people who may not be exempt from prosecution are professionals, doctors or nurses, who are the only people with the knowledge to be sure of success. Nothing could be more terrible than a botched suicide, a terminally ill person determined to die brought back to yet more horrible life."
The Suicide Act 1961 made it an offence to encourage or assist the suicide or attempted suicide of another person.

David Cameron faces new pressure to end ban on assisted suicide
Calls for it to be legalised for a limited category of people with fatal diseases
By Kirsty Walker
Last updated at 1:12 AM on 2nd January 2012
Critics have raised concerns over the impartiality of the commission, which was set up and funded by the author Sir Terry Pratchett
Helping the terminally ill to end their lives should be made legal, a report is expected to recommend this week.
The Independent Commission on Assisted Dying is set to call for it to be legalised for a limited category of people with fatal diseases, and to be strictly monitored.
The commission, chaired by the former Lord Chancellor Lord Falconer, is expected to criticise the legal framework which means that relatives face prosecution and even imprisonment for helping loved ones to commit suicide.
It will suggest that those who encourage or assist another to die should no longer be threatened with prosecution in certain cases.
There must also be strict procedures to ensure that terminally ill people are made fully aware of the palliative and social care available to them.
The findings, to be published this week, will reignite the fierce debate between supporters and opponents of assisted dying.
Critics have raised concerns over the impartiality of the commission, which was set up and funded by the author Sir Terry Pratchett, who has Alzheimer’s disease, and high street businessman Bernard Lewis. Both are supporters of legalising assisted dying.
Lord Falconer himself has previously warned that the law on assisted suicide was ‘no longer fit’, while most of the individuals on the 11-strong commission have expressed their support for a change in the law in the past.
Call for law reform: The headquarters of Dignitas, in Switzerland, where many terminally-ill Britons have gone for an assisted suicide
Prime Minister David Cameron has made clear that he opposes any moves to legalise assisted dying and the Government is unlikely to accept the commission’s recommendations.
At present helping someone to commit suicide is a crime that can bring a 14-year jail sentence.
However, more than 150 Britons have travelled to Zurich to die in the Dignitas suicide clinic under Switzerland’s liberal euthanasia laws without any of the relatives and friends who helped them being charged.
Warning: Former Met Police Commissioner Lord Blair said the law on assisted dying was confusing and unsafe
Guidelines issued by the Director of Public Prosecutions have also made it clear that no relative or friend is likely to be tried for assisted suicide unless they acted out of greed or malice.
Yesterday former Metropolitan Police commissioner Lord Blair, a member of the commission, warned that the current law on assisted dying is ‘incoherent and unsafe’.
‘At a time when they should be grieving, under the current system relatives of loved ones are forced into a world of uncertainty that leaves the police and prosecutors torn between good practice and natural human sympathy,’ he said.
But Tory MP Nadine Dorries said: ‘This commission, paid for by a known reformer and packed with strident voices to change the law, is unfortunately already discredited due to its lack of impartiality.’
A spokesman for Care Not Killing said: ‘This is a deeply worrying and flawed report that is being presented as a serious investigation into this complicated and divisive issue. It is not.

Charles Falconer, ex Lord Canciller del Reino Unido, ha apoyado la Comisión de Muerte Asistida.
La Comisión de Muerte Asistida del Reino Unido, creada por el ''think-tank'' Demos en el año 2010, apoyará un cambio en la ley británica para que sea legal que alguien solicite un suicidio asistido, cuando publique su informe final el jueves.
La Comisión ha sido dirigida por el ex lord canciller Charles Falconer y cuenta con miembros de la profesión médica, de los grupos de defensa del paciente, políticos como el conservador Penny Mordaunt y un clérigo, James Woodword, canónigo de la Capilla de San Jorge (Castillo de Windsor).
La filósofa Mary Warnock, que apoya la provisión de muerte asistida, dijo que el Parlamento tiene el “deber moral” de cambiar la ley. Ian Blair, ex comisionado de la Policía Metropolitana de Londres, también sirvió a la Comisión y ha declarado que apoya un cambio en la ley, ya que actualmente coloca a los oficiales de policía en la difícil situación de la investigación de casos de suicidio asistido, con miembros de familia frente a la incertidumbre en cuanto a si el Director del Ministerio Público presentaría cargos. Blair también describió como “incoherente” la posición actual de los médicos ante la ley, que es clara en cuanto a qué es exactamente lo que cuenta como “ayudar” a un suicidio.
David Cameron, Primer Ministro británico, se ha opuesto al cambio de la ley de muerte asistida. Escribió en 2006: “No creo que debamos pasar esta línea y no debemos permitir a los médicos u otras personas de manera positiva que aceleren la muerte ... porque creo que las consecuencias a largo plazo de permitir dicha acción muy probablemente sean peligrosas para la sociedad”.

There has been a lull in the media recently about the rights and wrongs of assisted dying, but the conflict is sure to break out again with the imminent publication of the report from Lord Falconer's commission, established to consider changes to the law.
The commission was set up in the autumn of 2010 and has been subject to repeated accusations of bias in favour of reform. It is true that Lord Falconer is known to be dissatisfied with the law as it stands, as indeed anyone should be. For as things are, assisting in or encouraging suicide remains a criminal offence, indeed a crime tantamount to murder, but the director of public prosecutions has compiled a list of considerations that will make prosecution unlikely (but not impossible) when a person helps another to die at his or her own request.
This cannot be a good state of the law. For one thing, it classes together the actions of someone who broadcasts encouragement to suicide to the world at large with one who agonisingly decides that, out of compassion, when asked to do so, he must help a person he loves to escape from suffering. For another thing, the only people who may not be exempt from prosecution are professionals, doctors or nurses, who are the only people with the knowledge to be sure of success. Nothing could be more terrible than a botched suicide, a terminally ill person determined to die brought back to yet more horrible life. Finally, there is the drawback of uncertainty.
The commission has carried out its work thoroughly and conscientiously. Those who gave evidence were treated courteously and fairly and were given time to expand their arguments, whichever way they tended. Whatever the commission advises, in whatever way it recommends that the present muddle be cleared up, there seems to me to be no reason simply to write off its conclusions. It will not be enough to say of Lord Falconer: "He would say that, wouldn't he?" He was chairman of a group, not all of whom thought the same, and all of whom listened to those who gave evidence, before writing their report.
Society is getting better at facing the fact that many people at present suffer horrible deaths. The commission has reinforced this welcome trend, to think seriously how things can be improved.
We can admit now how deeply we desire a good death, for ourselves, our friends and family; how much we resent the assumption that death must be fended off at all costs, whatever our wishes. Euthanasia in its etymological sense is a widely shared ideal, especially among the increasing number of the aged. The desire to die at a proper time and "peacefully" (as most people feel impelled to say in the deaths column of newspapers. Perhaps they mean that death itself is peaceful, not that dying was so, for all too often it is not) is partly a self-regarding, partly an other-regarding motive. The desire to escape the intolerable humiliations, as well as the pains, of incurable illness usually combines with the desire not to be a burden or a futile expense; this is a perfectly respectable motive, which should not be thought of as the outcome of undue pressure.
The notion that nobody would want death unless they had been persuaded by someone else to want it (or unless they were clinically depressed and could be treated for that) is surely a myth. Some may value life itself, however pointless and pleasureless it is, but others do not.
Palliative care, the control of symptoms when there is no hope of cure, is a marvellous medical development, constantly advancing. But we must not pretend that it will soon be available for everyone, nor that it is always effective. In any case, the atmosphere of loving care, palpable in the best hospices, cannot be easily reproduced in hospitals, where, as we know, terminally ill patients may suffer appalling neglect, both from doctors not much interested in death once it is imminent, and from nurses who have neither time nor specialist training.
The decision whether or not the law should be changed must rest with Parliament; despite the wider acceptance among the general public that such a change would be rational and good, it will be an extremely difficult decision for Parliament to make. If MPs do not or cannot make it, and aiding and abetting suicide remains a form of murder, then the only remedy is to follow the Law Society's long-standing advice and change the law of murder, so that it no longer carries a mandatory life sentence.
The life sentence is a farce anyway, since everyone knows that it means what it says in only a very few cases, of which assisted suicide would certainly not be one. So in the case where a loving husband had brought about the death of his wife, who preferred death to the life she was leading, it would be for the judge to decide what punishment, if any, would be just.
Perhaps, if all judges were of the same mind, precedent would gradually accumulate (and under the present law it has in a way begun to do so, in the absence of prosecutions for assisted suicide) and eventually it would be seen that to continue to treat mercy killing as a crime was futile. But Parliament must decide which way it is right to go. This will be one of the many instances where to legislate is to come to a moral decision, from which there is no escape.

Why now?
The reason for addressing the assisted dying debate at this point in time is that the legal and ethical status of assisted dying in our society continues to be an unresolved public policy issue. The Commission for Assisted Dying starts from the premise that, while assisted dying may be illegal in the UK, it remains possible for those with the financial and physical ability to seek assistance to die, for instance by travelling overseas or by engaging non-medical assistance at home. The Director of Public Prosecutions’ policy has effectively decriminalised ‘amateur’ assistance to die by distinguishing between compassionate and malicious actions. To date, over 150 Britons have travelled abroad to die and no one has been prosecuted for accompanying them or assisting them. However, these guidelines also differentiate between amateur assistance to die by loved ones (which is likely to be forgiven by the criminal justice system), and professional assistance by healthcare professionals, which is likely to result in prosecution.
The policy therefore creates the expectation that people must rely on friends and family for assistance, with all of the practical risks that this might entail. The policy also fails to resolve ethical questions such as whether there are some circumstances that might justify somebody wishing to end their life (for example if the person is terminally ill) and others that might not (for example if somebody is experiencing temporary and curable depression).
Selection of Commissioners
The commissioners have been selected on the basis of open-mindedness and expertise. Commissioners have been selected from a wide range of backgrounds and experience and will reach their conclusion based on the evidence brought before the commission. They join the commission in a personal capacity and are not representatives of any professional affiliations they may have.
Independence
The Commission on Assisted Dying is an independent body that will reach conclusions based upon the evidence brought before it. It has been set up with funding provided by Bernard Lewis and Terry Pratchett. Demos are providing the research secretariat and administrative support.
The commission is to act entirely independently and the commission alone will be responsible for its conclusions. In particular, the commission will be independent from Demos and the funders.

China threatens 'nuclear option' of dollar sales
By Ambrose Evans-Pritchard
Last Updated: 1:41am BST 09/08/2007
The Chinese government has begun a concerted campaign of economic threats against the United States, hinting that it may liquidate its vast holding of US treasuries if Washington imposes trade sanctions to force a yuan revaluation.
Two officials at leading Communist Party bodies have given interviews in recent days warning - for the first time - that Beijing may use its $1.33 trillion (£658bn) of foreign reserves as a political weapon to counter pressure from the US Congress.
Shifts in Chinese policy are often announced through key think tanks and academies.
Described as China's "nuclear option" in the state media, such action could trigger a dollar crash at a time when the US currency is already breaking down through historic support levels.
It would also cause a spike in US bond yields, hammering the US housing market and perhaps tipping the economy into recession. It is estimated that China holds over $900bn in a mix of US bonds.
Xia Bin, finance chief at the Development Research Centre (which has cabinet rank), kicked off what now appears to be government policy with a comment last week that Beijing's foreign reserves should be used as a "bargaining chip" in talks with the US.
"Of course, China doesn't want any undesirable phenomenon in the global financial order," he added.
He Fan, an official at the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences, went even further today, letting it be known that Beijing had the power to set off a dollar collapse if it choose to do so.
"China has accumulated a large sum of US dollars. Such a big sum, of which a considerable portion is in US treasury bonds, contributes a great deal to maintaining the position of the dollar as a reserve currency. Russia, Switzerland, and several other countries have reduced the their dollar holdings.
"China is unlikely to follow suit as long as the yuan's exchange rate is stable against the dollar. The Chinese central bank will be forced to sell dollars once the yuan appreciated dramatically, which might lead to a mass depreciation of the dollar," he told China Daily.
The threats play into the presidential electoral campaign of Hillary Clinton, who has called for restrictive legislation to prevent America being "held hostage to economic decicions being made in Beijing, Shanghai, or Tokyo".
She said foreign control over 44pc of the US national debt had left America acutely vulnerable.
Simon Derrick, a currency strategist at the Bank of New York Mellon, said the comments were a message to the US Senate as Capitol Hill prepares legislation for the Autumn session.
"The words are alarming and unambiguous. This carries a clear political threat and could have very serious consequences at a time when the credit markets are already afraid of contagion from the subprime troubles," he said.
A bill drafted by a group of US senators, and backed by the Senate Finance Committee, calls for trade tariffs against Chinese goods as retaliation for alleged currency manipulation.
The yuan has appreciated 9pc against the dollar over the last two years under a crawling peg but it has failed to halt the rise of China's trade surplus, which reached $26.9bn in June.
Henry Paulson, the US Tresury Secretary, said any such sanctions would undermine American authority and "could trigger a global cycle of protectionist legislation".
Mr Paulson is a China expert from his days as head of Goldman Sachs. He has opted for a softer form of diplomacy, but appeared to win few concession from Beijing on a unscheduled trip to China last week aimed at calming the waters.

La República Popular China ha respondido ante las amenazas del gobierno estadounidense de imponerle sanciones económicas para forzar la apreciación del yuan con amenazas similares en contra del dólar.
Según reportes, dos altos oficiales del partido comunista han expresado que Beijing podría usar sus inmensas reservas internacionales como un arma para contrarrestar la presión del congreso de los Estados Unidos.
China posee las mayores reservas internacionales de cualquier país en el mundo, con una cifra de $1,33 mil billones de dólares.
Dado el tamaño de las reservas chinas, un desplazamiento de las reservas internacionales chinas hacia otra divisa produciría el colapso del dólar en un momento en que la divisa ha perdido valor contra la mayoría de las monedas del mundo.
La movida podría sumir a la economía norteamericana en una recesión profunda, que por supuesto no le convendría a China puesto que los Estados Unidos es uno de los mayores importadores de mercancías chinas. Sin embargo, muestra que China esta dispuesta a usar ese poder económico como una de sus cartas de negociación en sus conversaciones con los Estados Unidos.
En la campaña electoral, Hilary Clinton ha propuesto la implementación de medidas legislativas restrictivas para prevenir que las decisiones económicas de Beijing y Tokio se usen para chantajear a los Estados Unidos.
En el momento hay una propuesta de ley apoyada por el Comité de Finanzas del Senado para imponer tarifas contra las importaciones de china como retaliación por lo que los senadores estadounidenses consideran una manipulación de la divisa.

China may sell off Treasury bonds if US imposes trade sanctions - report
LONDON (Thomson Financial) - The Chinese government has hinted that it may liquidate its vast holding of US Treasury bonds, potentially triggering a crash in the dollar, if Washington imposes trade sanctions to force a yuan revaluation, The Telegraph reported.

Daniel Craig helped launch the new film at Pinewood Studios
The Bond film set
The title is taken from one of a collection of short stories published by 007 creator Ian Fleming in 1960.
Producer Michael Wilson said the film would have "twice as much action" as 2006's Casino Royale, which saw Daniel Craig debut as the iconic secret agent.
The next outing, previously known as Bond 22, is partly being shot at Pinewood Studios in Buckinghamshire.
At a press conference at the facility, reporters were shown a minute of footage from the new film, including Bond swinging on a rope after an explosion at an art gallery in Siena, Italy.
Another scene showed him meeting M - played by Dame Judi Dench - outside in the snow.
Filming on the movie has been taking place at Pinewood since November.
He's looking for revenge, you know, to make himself happy with the world again
Daniel Craig on James Bond
"Ian Fleming had written about relationships," he explained.
"When they go wrong, when there's nothing left, when the spark has gone, when the fire's gone out, there's no quantum of solace.
"And at the end of the last movie, Bond has the love of his life taken away from him and he never got that quantum of solace."
Craig said the new film would follow 007 as he goes out "to find the guy who's responsible".
"So he's looking for revenge, you know, to make himself happy with the world again.
"But the title also alludes to something else in the film," he added.
'Driven by revenge'
Olga Kurylenko and Gemma Arterton star alongside Craig
Olga Kurylenko, who plays Bond girl Camille in the film, said that she has yet to film any scenes, but was working hard preparing for her role.
"I'm doing weapons training and body flight training for aerial scenes and stunt work for fighting," she said.
"This girl is going to kick ass. She's on her own mission and she's driven by revenge."
But it is not clear whether Camille is a secret agent.
French actor Mathieu Amalric, who plays the villainous Dominic Greene, told reporters his character had "the smile of Tony Blair and the crazy eyes of Nicholas Sarkozy".
Actress Gemma Arterton plays an MI6 agent in the film and has already shot her love scenes with 007.
She said: "I felt like a giggly girl, and I felt so young and inexperienced - but I kissed James Bond!"
The 21-year-old, who recently starred in the St Trinian's film, said her Bond role is "not so frolicksome" and her character "fresh and young, not sultry and a femme fatale".
'Pretty prickly'
Dame Judi Dench, who returns for her sixth Bond film, said: "I get to do more in this one, which is brilliant."
She hinted that her character's relationship with Bond would be "pretty prickly".
Rumours about the name had grown after fans noticed that film studio Sony had bought the domain name quantumofsolace.com.
But co-producer Michael Wilson said the name had only been decided "a few days ago", adding the story's start point would be "literally an hour after the last film left off".
Asked if Casino Royale star Eva Green would appear in Quantum of Solace, co-producer Barbara Broccoli said: "There are no flashbacks in the film, but she's certainly on Bond's mind."
Director Marc Forster is in charge of work on the movie, which is due for release on 7 November.

Bond star Daniel Craig in 2007
The name for the newest James Bond film has been announced today. The 22nd film, previously known only as "Bond 22", will be called "Quantum of Solace". EON Productions who are producing the film made the announcement today at Pinewood Studios, where production for the film has been under way since last year.
The name of the film was inspired by a short story (of the same name) from For Your Eyes Only by Bond creator, Ian Fleming.
The film will be the second for star Daniel Craig, who first starred in Casino Royale in 2006, taking over from Pierce Brosnan. Producer Michael G. Wilson has previously said that the film will continue "literally an hour after" Casino Royale's conclusion.

It might not have quite the innuendo of For Your Eyes Only, or even the ooh matron oomph of Octopussy, but the title of the new James Bond film has finally been made public. And it is Quantum of Solace.
The title comes from an Ian Fleming short story in the For Your Eyes Only collection, which also lent monikers to the 1981 film starring Roger Moore and 1987's The Living Daylights, starring Timothy Dalton.
What does the title mean? Well, in short, a small amount of comfort.
The 22nd film in the Bond series will mark the second outing for Daniel Craig and is due to hit screens in November. The British actor has helped to relight 007's fires with the help of the Oscar-winning screenwriter Paul Haggis, who worked on Casino Royale and will once again handle pen duties on Quantum. German director Marc Forster, recently at the centre of controversy over his film The Kite Runner, will be running the show.
Fleming's original tale Quantum of Solace centred upon a dinner at Government House in Nassau in the Bahamas, which Bond attends with a number of boring fellow guests. After making an offensive remark in an effort to stimulate conversation, 007 is told a tragic tale by the governor of the Bahamas about two people worn down by a series of unfortunate decisions that have ruined their lives. It turns out this pair are among the dinner guests, with the moral of the story being that you should never judge by appearances.
Quantum of Solace, the movie, borrows nothing from the original tale. Instead it is likely to be a straight sequel to last year's Casino Royale: reports suggest there will be an appearance for Vesper Lynd's Algerian boyfriend, who was mentioned but never seen in that feature.
And if you think the title a little underwhelming, please bear in mind that the only other unused titles in the short story collection were Risico, and The Hildebrand Rarity.

Repórter da Agência Brasil
Brasília - O primeiro-ministro da França, François Fillon, chega hoje (14) ao Brasil. A ideia é ampliar a cooperação entre os dois países e a parceria estratégica no setor de defesa. Amanhã (15), Fillon se reúne com a presidenta Dilma Rousseff. Uma das propostas da França inclui a participação na construção de um dos porta-aviões do projeto de reaparelhamento da Marinha brasileira.
Fillon viaja ao Brasil com uma delegação de 40 pessoas, das quais 28 são empresários, além de parlamentares e três ministros de Estado. O primeiro-ministro tem uma agenda de quatro dias em território brasileiro.
De acordo com assessores de Fillon, com base no acordo assinado em 2009 entre a França e o Brasil para venda de armamento avaliado em U$ 12,3 bilhões, o primeiro-ministro vai demonstrar interesse em outros contratos no setor, como a participação na construção do futuro porta-aviões brasileiro. A empresa DCNS fez uma proposta para o design do futuro navio-aeródromo.
O governo da França também está interessado no projeto brasileiro de renovação da frota de fragatas e de patrulhas oceânicas e na fiscalização das fronteiras marítimas. A Aeronáutica civil é outro setor estratégico, e um dos objetivos é intensificar as relações nessa área.
O principal ponto das discussões é a compra dos 36 caças Rafale para renovação da frota brasileira.
De acordo com o especialista em Defesa Nelson During, o Rafale também está na disputa por um contrato da Marinha, que inclui 48 aviões.
No âmbito nuclear, o Brasil pretende adquirir até 2030 quatro novos reatores, além dos três que já existem nas usinas de Angra dos Reis. A França, conhecida pela sua experiência no desenvolvimento de energia nuclear para fins civis, pretende aproveitar esse interesse brasileiro para negociar.
A crise na Europa também terá destaque na visita. A questão será abordada durante um seminário na Federação das Indústrias do Estado de São Paulo (Fiesp), que contará com a participação de empresários dos dois países. O Brasil é o país não europeu que mais recebe investimentos diretos da França. Cerca de 500 empresas francesas estão instaladas no país.
Durante a visita do primeiro-ministro francês, também serão assinados diversos acordos bilaterais. Um deles, ligado ao programa Ciências sem Fronteiras, prevê a formação de cerca de 10 mil estudantes bolsistas no país. Também há acordos nas áreas de tecnologia da informação e Previdência Social.
A agenda de Fillon ainda inclui a inauguração de um monumento em homenagem às vítimas do voo AF447, que caiu em 31 de maio de 2009 no Oceano Atlântico. A cerimônia deve ocorrer sexta-feira (16), no jardim Parque dos Dois Irmãos, no Leblon. Ainda no Rio, Fillon deverá visitar o teleférico que liga os seis morros do Complexo do Alemão, recentemente ocupado pela polícia. O primeiro-ministro volta para a França no sábado (17).

São Paulo – Em visita à cidade de São Paulo, o primeiro-ministro da França, François Fillon, disse hoje (15) que o país está pronto para iniciar um diálogo “franco” sobre o acordo comercial entre o Mercosul e a União Europeia.
Fillon ressaltou, no entanto, que os países europeus não vão abrir mão de apoiar seus agricultores – uma das principais questões que hoje travam o avanço do acordo, – mas destacou que o protecionismo não é um caminho aceitável.
“ Sabemos que o que agravou a crise dos anos 30, que é bastante comparável com a crise atual, o que a tornou catastrófica, e que acabou levando para todas as desordens, foi a volta para o protecionismo”, disse, na Federação das Indústrias do Estado de São Paulo (Fiesp).
O primeiro-ministro ressaltou que não há fundamento em dizer que há um “bloqueio” por parte dos europeus em negociar a abertura do mercado agrícola. Segundo Fillon, a agricultura é estratégica para a segurança de abastecimento do ponto de vista sanitário, e a Europa não irá abrir mão dela.
“ Nós estamos prontos para um diálogo franco e transparente, mas, além da parte agrícola, temos de falar da parte industrial, o comércio, os serviços, o acesso aos mercados públicos. Estou convencido de que nós vamos encontrar uma solução aceitável”, acrescentou.
Há sete meses, as negociações entre o Mercosul e a União Europeia foram retomadas. Desde 2004, as conversas estavam paralisadas devido à falta de progresso na Rodada Doha, na Organização Mundial do Comércio (OMC) - que prevê a criação de regras para o comércio global. Para os europeus, facilitar a exportação de produtos agrícolas do Mercosul pode prejudicar seus agricultores.
O primeiro-ministro fez referência ainda à participação da França nas forças de coalizão que fizeram uma intervenção militar na Líbia. Fillon defendeu a ação e disse que a medida foi baseada na proteção das populações e na defesa de um processo democrático nascente.
“ Eu conheço as reticências que foram emitidas pelas autoridades brasileiras, durante a intervenção militar que conduzimos na Líbia. Entendo as reticências, mas também gostaria que entendessem as nossas”, disse.
Em setembro, em discurso na abertura da 66ª Assembleia Geral d a Organização das Nações Unidas (ONU), a presidenta Dilma Rousseff se colocou contrária às intervenções militares ocorridas nos países do Oriente Médio e do Norte da África, envolvidos em conflitos civis desde o ano passado, em uma série de revoltas conhecida como Primavera Árabe.
"Repudiamos com veemência as repressões brutais que vitimam populações civis. Estamos convencidos de que, para a comunidade internacional, o recurso da força deve ser sempre a última alternativa", destacou Dilma ao discursar.

O primeiro-ministro da , , chegou ontem ao Brasil. A ideia é ampliar a cooperação entre os dois países e a parceria estratégica no setor de defesa. Fillon reune hoje com a presidenta Dilma Rousseff. Uma das propostas da França inclui a participação na construção de um dos porta-aviões do projeto de reaparelhamento da Marinha brasileira.
Fillon viaja ao Brasil com uma delegação de 40 pessoas, das quais 28 são empresários, além de parlamentares e três ministros de Estado. O primeiro-ministro tem uma agenda de quatro dias em território brasileiro.
De acordo com assessores de Fillon, com base no acordo assinado em 2009 entre a França e o Brasil para venda de armamento avaliado em U$ 12,3 bilhões, o primeiro-ministro vai demonstrar interesse em outros contratos no setor, como a participação na construção do futuro porta-aviões brasileiro. A empresa DCNS fez uma proposta para o design do futuro navio-aeródromo.
O governo da França também está interessado no projeto brasileiro de renovação da frota de fragatas e de patrulhas oceânicas e na fiscalização das fronteiras marítimas. A Aeronáutica civil é outro setor estratégico, e um dos objetivos é intensificar as relações nessa área.
O principal ponto das discussões é a compra dos 36 caças para renovação da frota brasileira. De acordo com o especialista em Defesa, Nelson During, o Rafale também está na disputa por um contrato da Marinha, que inclui 48 aviões.
No âmbito nuclear, o Brasil pretende adquirir até 2030 quatro novos reatores, além dos três que já existem nas usinas de Angra dos Reis. A França, conhecida pela sua experiência no desenvolvimento de energia nuclear para fins civis, pretende aproveitar esse interesse brasileiro para negociar.
A crise na Europa também terá destaque na visita. A questão será abordada durante um seminário na (Fiesp), que contará com a participação de empresários dos dois países.

Brasília – O primeiro-ministro da França, Francois Fillon, disse hoje (15), após encontro com a presidenta Dilma Rousseff, que seu país está determinado a controlar as finanças públicas, conforme acordo firmado no último dia 9, em Bruxelas. Segundo Fillon, que esteve também em São Paulo nesta quinta-feira, a França está empenhada em investir na retomada do crescimento europeu.
Ele disse que, na conversa com Dilma, a crise econômica internacional foi um dos temas, em particular, a crise da dívida enfrentada atualmente por alguns países da zona do euro.
Em declaração conjunta após o encontro, a presidenta reafirmou que o Brasil pretende contribuir, se necessário, com recursos para o FMI, mas destacou que isso depende da implementação de reformas que garantam maior participação de países emergentes nas decisões da instituição. "Reafirmei a disposição do governo brasileiro de realizar, se necessário, novos aportes de recursos ao Fundo Monetário Internacional, desde que tenhamos garantia de que a reforma de 2010 do fundo será implementada."
O primeiro-ministro francês elogiou os avanços do Brasil nas áreas econômica e social e concordou com o pleito da presidenta de maior influência do país nas instâncias internacionais. "Uma influência nova do Brasil no cenário internacional é legítima."
Dilma falou também sobre os resultados da Conferência do Clima, em Durban, África do Sul, encerrada no último domingo (11). Ela disse que o balanço foi positivo e reconheceu o esforço dos países desenvolvidos para reduzir as emissões de gases, mas ressaltou que ainda é preciso avançar nessa questão.
"Há ainda muito trabalho pela frente. Temos até 2015 para negociar um pacto climático sólido, que respeite os princípios das responsabilidades comuns, porém, diferenciadas. Ao tratar de medidas de mitigação de mudanças no clima, ressaltamos a importância da diversificação de fontes de energia", concluiu.

Am 29. April 2005 will Apple MacOS X 10.4 alias "Tiger" als Desktop- und Server-Ausführung in den Handel bringen. Zu den Neuerungen der Desktop-Version zählen mit Spotlight eine Desktop-Suchmaschine und mit Dashboard eine Möglichkeit, verschiedene Werkzeuge zentral zu verwalten. Für das leichte Automatisieren häufig wiederkehrender Aufgaben liegt dem Betriebssystem außerdem die neue Software Automator bei.
MacOS X 10.4
MacOS X 10.4 alias Tiger
Die in MacOS X 10.4 enthaltene Desktop-Suchmaschine Spotlight durchsucht Dokumente oder deren Metadaten, um diese leicht auffinden zu können. Apple verspricht, dass das Programm E-Mails, Adressen, Termine, Bilder, PDF-Dokumente und praktisch jeden Dokumententyp durchsuchen kann, wozu auch Dokumente aus Microsofts Office-Paket gehören. Ohne Verzögerung verspricht Spotlight passende Suchergebnisse übersichtlich anzuzeigen. Die Desktop-Suchmaschine arbeitet wie auch andere Produkte dieser Art im Hintergrund, um Änderungen an Dateien zu bemerken und neu hinzu kommende Daten in den Suchindex aufnehmen zu können.Entwicklern steht die Möglichkeit zur Verfügung, die Spotlight-Technik in eigene Anwendung zu integrieren. Apple geht davon aus, dass in den kommenden Monaten viele Drittanbieter Anwendungsprogramme mit der Spotlight-Technik vorstellen werden.Über das Dashboard werden eine Reihe kleinerer Hilfsprogramme ("Widgets") für den Desktop bereit gestellt, um auf diverse Informationen zugreifen und verschiedene Funktionen nutzen zu können. Wie auch bei Konfabulator lassen sich per Internet darüber Aktienkurse, Wettervorhersagen, Flugdaten oder Telefonbuchdaten einsehen. Auch ein Wörterbuch kann man darüber aufrufen oder man steuert die Wiedergabe seiner iTunes-Stücke. Zudem lassen sich mit passenden Widgets Maßeinheiten und Währungen umrechnen.Die einzelnen Widgtes lassen sich mit einem Mausklick hervorholen und so auch wieder verbergen. Dies soll den Arbeitsablauf möglichst nicht stören. Zum Lieferumfang von MacOS X 10.4 gehören 14 solcher Widgets, weitere können beliebig nachgerüstet werden. Die Widgets nutzen Web-Standards wie HTML, CSS und JavaScript, was es Entwicklern erleichtern soll, eigene Widgets bereit zu stellen.Eine weitere neue Anwendung ist Automator, worüber sich wiederkehrende Abläufe bequem automatisieren lassen. Dazu kann der Anwender zahlreiche anpassbare Aktionen zu einer verbinden, um Aufgaben so zu automatisieren. Gespeicherte Aktionen lassen sich zudem mit anderen Automator-Nutzern austauschen.MacOS X 10.4 erhält einen aktualisierten iChat-Client, der den neuen H.264-Codec unterstützt, was die Bildqualität bei gleicher Datenrate dramatisch verbessern soll. Über iChat können Audiokonferenzen mit bis zu zehn Teilnehmern und Videokonferenzen in einem virtuellen 3D-Konferenzraum mit bis zu vier Teilnehmern abgehalten werden. Zudem zeigt die iChat-Kontaktliste den Titel eines aktuell laufenden iTunes-Stückes.Außerdem hat Apple den Web-Browser Safari aktualisiert, der einen vollständigen RSS-Reader erhält, der verschiedene RSS-Feeds zu einer Art Tageszeitung zusammen stellt. Zudem liegt MacOS X 10.4 die Version 7 von QuickTime bei und es wird Mail 2, iCal 2 sowie FontBook 2 mitgeliefert.Ab dem 29. April 2005 soll MacOS X 10.4 in der Desktop-Version für 129,- Euro zu haben sein. Das Betriebssystem kann bereits über den Online-Shop von Apple vorbestellt werden. Wer ab dem heutigen 12. April 2005 einen Apple-Rechner erwirbt, kann ein Upgrade auf MacOS X 10.4 zum Preis von 17,99 Euro kaufen. (ip)

Neuer Präsident Josipovic will Kroatien in die EU führen
Zagreb — Der Sozialdemokrat Ivo Josipovic, der die zweite Runde der kroatischen Präsidentenwahl klar gewonnen hat, will sein Land schnell in die EU führen. Er wolle sich für ein "europäisches Kroatien" einsetzen, sagte der Jura-Professor nach seinem Wahlsieg. Auf den 52-jährigen entfielen 60,3 Prozent der Stimmen, der parteilose Bürgermeister von Zagreb, Milan Bandic, kam auf 39,7 Prozent.
In der Parteizentrale der sozialdemokratischen Oppositionspartei SDP empfingen hunderte Anhänger den Wahlsieger mit "Ivo,-Ivo"-Rufen. In seiner Rede sprach Josipovic von einem Sieg für alle Kroaten. Als Präsident wolle er sich für ein "europäisches Kroatien" einsetzen, das für Werte wie Demokratie, Freiheit und Menschenrechte stehe. Insgesamt waren rund 4,4 Millionen Wahlberechtigte zu den Urnen gerufen gewesen. Die Wahlbeteiligung lag laut Wahlkommission bei knapp über 50 Prozent.
Experten erwarten von Josipovic vor allem, die Korruption zu bekämpfen, die das Haupthindernis für einen EU-Beitritt ist. Der neue Präsident will sein Land bis 2012 zum EU-Mitglied machen. Die konservative Regierungschefin Jadranka Kosor begrüßte das Wahlergebnis und kündigte an, mit Josipovic zusammenarbeiten zu wollen. Ihrer konservativen HDZ gehörte früher auch der scheidende Staatschef Stipe Mesic an, der gemäß der Verfassung nach zwei Amtszeiten nicht mehr antreten durfte.
Beide Kandidaten hatten sich im Wahlkampf für eine Eindämmung der Korruption und einen EU-Beitritt Kroatiens stark gemacht. Im Gegensatz zu Bandic wurden Josipovic aber keine Korruptionsaffären nachgesagt. Er hatte bereits im ersten Wahldurchgang 32,4 Prozent der Stimmen erhalten, Bandic kam damals auf 14,8 Prozent.
Allerdings hatte Bandic seither große Anstrengungen unternommen, um die konservative Wählerschaft für sich zu gewinnen. Seine Gegner warfen ihm vor, sich populistischer Rhetorik zu bedienen. Zudem kritisierten sie, dass der Bürgermeister von Zagreb keine Fremdsprachen beherrscht.
Josipovic, der sein Amt am 18. Februar antreten soll, wurde von seinen Gegnern mangelnde politische Erfahrung vorgeworfen. Er konnte aber auf die Unterstützung des scheidenden Staatschefs Mesic zählen. In Kroatien sind die Kompetenzen zwischen dem Präsidenten und der Regierung weitgehend geteilt. So hat der Staatschef auch in der Außenpolitik maßgebliche Befugnisse.

Ivo Josipović
In einer Stichwahl zwischen zwei verbliebenen Kandidaten konnte sich der sozialdemokratische Rechtsprofessor Ivo Josipović bei der gestrigen Präsidentschaftswahl in Kroatien gegenüber seinem Mitbewerber, dem parteilosen Zagreber Bürgermeister Milan Bandić, klar mit 60,3 Prozent der Stimmen gegenüber 39,7 Prozent für Bandić durchsetzen.
Josipović folgt Stjepan Mesić in diesem Amt, dessen zweite Amtszeit im Februar endet und der gemäß der Verfassung nicht wieder zur Wahl antreten durfte. Mesić hatte die Kandidatur Josipovićs unterstützt. Der neue Präsident will sich, wie die konservative Regierung des Landes, für den Beitritt Kroatiens zur Europäischen Union bis 2012 einsetzen. Regierungschefin Jadranka Kosor begrüßte denn auch das Wahlergebnis und kündigte an, mit Josipović zusammenarbeiten zu wollen. In Kroatien besitzt der Staatspräsident auch wesentliche Kompetenzen in der Außenpolitik.
Als wesentliches Hindernis für einen EU-Beitritt gilt die verbreitete Korruption in Kroatien. Kroatien liegt auf dem Internationalen Korruptionsindex von Transparency International mit einem Indexwert von 4,2 auf Platz 66. Zum Vergleich: Deutschland liegt auf Platz 14 (8,0) und Österreich auf Platz 16 (7,9). Der CPI-Index gibt die Wahrnehmung von Korruption im öffentlichen Sektor in dem jeweiligen Land wieder. Mitentscheidend für den Wahlausgang war politischen Beobachtern zufolge, dass Josipović im Gegensatz zu seinem Rivalen Bandić keine persönliche Verstrickungen in Korruptionsaffären nachgesagt wurden.

Kanako Ikeda, estudiante universitaria japonesa de la universidad Meiji Gakuin de 21 años de edad, fue secuestrada aproximadamente a las 12:25 (03:25 UTC) del pasado 26 de junio en el distrito tokiota de Shibuya.
Ikeda lucía una rebeca ligera blanca a media manga, jeans azules con un cinturón marrón hecho de cuero, una ''camisole'' celeste y llevaba un bolso de Vuitton cuando la secuestraron en una parada de autobús.
La estudiante fue hallada 13 horas después por la policía japonesa en un condominio situado en Kawasaki, prefectura de Kanagawa, gracias a un rastreo de las comunicaciones vía celular de los secuestradores de Ikeda con la madre de ésta. Los secuestradores resultaron ser dos hombres, uno de nacionalidad surcoreana y otro de nacionalidad china. Ikeda fue encontrada ilesa.
El secuestro de Ikeda tuvo amplio eco en los medios japoneses pues su madre, Yuko Ikeda, de 47 años, es una famosa cirujana plástica conocida por el procedimiento no invasivo llamado ''puchi seikei'', y maneja la clínica ''Lovehearts'' de Tokio.

Kanako Ikeda a les yeux bleus
A la table du petit déjeuner ce matin, on devisait comme des malfrats rôdés aux bonnes méthodes sur le mauvais choix de l’enlévement pour rançon au Japon. Ambiance Tonton flingueurs.
- Ces imbéciles se sont sont fait gauler au bout de 13 heures parce qu’un cave avait noté l’immatriculation de la voiture et forces détails.
- Non, l’enlèvement c’est trop risqué ici, et tous ces gens qui s’observent. Avec les veaux, il y a plus simple. Les pickpockets l’ont compris.
Mon divorce d’avec le vox populi local est total. Mais alors pourquoi ai-je donc lu cela?
Ca pourrait se chanter sur un petit air, genre Kanako a les yeux bleus. C’est un mensonge mais qu’importe. En tout cas, elle a eu de la chance. Elle fait l’actualité du matin, plus forte que la coupe du monde. Aller, musique!
Elle s’appelle Kanako Ikeda. Elle a été enlevée devant l’arrêt de bus Itariya-Honsha-mae du quartier Hachiyama-chô, à 800 mètres de la station Shibuya, à 30 mètres de son domicile. (Si avec ces informations, on ne trouve pas la maison, c’est à desespérer). Elle a 21 ans, étudiante en 4e année d’économie à l’université Meiji Gakuin (option fringues, poses et moues?). Lors de son enlèvement, elle était élégamment vêtue d’un pull léger blanc, un jeans bleu et une camisole. Elle portait un sac Vuitton.
On a déjà une idée de l’interprétation du concept de vie privée ici. Le voyeurisme du vox populi porte pesamment sur les victimes. Les agresseurs sont beaucoup plus protégés par les lois. On en saura très peu à leur sujet. Ce que je me demande toujours après tout ce temps passé ici, en lisant ce genre d’articles que j’ignore habituellement, c’est s’il y a la moindre once d’ironie dans le besoin du gratte-torchon - potentiel pince sans rire - de mentionner la couleur des vêtements et la marque du sac de la victime. Il ne s’agissait pas d’un signalement puisqu’elle avait déjà été libérée.
Kanako Ikeda (a-t-elle les yeux bleus?), est un bon parti. Sa maman est une célebrité télévisuelle qui dirige une clinique de chirurgie esthétique. Les compte-rendus en rafales offrent progressivement toujours plus de détails sur la victime et sa famille. Dans quelques heures, on saura sans doute le tarif de base d’une injection de botulis ou d’un énième lifting qui font ressembler les oreilles des patient(e)s à celles d’un bouledogue, mais j’aurai décroché du quotidien Asahi avant. C’est dans l’Asahi toutes ces informations. Même pas de la presse people.
Pour autant, il ne faut pas rechigner sur les scripts des conversations entre la maman et les ravisseurs qui sont aussi livrées en pâture. C’est de la matière crûe, du parlé vécu, du vécu parlé que je vais exploiter goulument en cours de japonais à distance (pour ceux que cela intéresse, cliquez ici).
Tu manges? Tu fais pipi? La rançon, c’est combien?
Que de la langue pratique. Et cette manière qu’on les ravisseurs d’appeler la victime et sa mère par leurs prénoms. Cette familiarité, c’est d’un osé!
Kanako Ikeda a eu de la chance. Comment ces victimes digèrent-elles l’étalage de leur vie privée, de ces détails qui les exposent aux villageois sur la place du village nippon dans leur similitude et leurs petites différences de pouvoir d’achat - même le sac de marque ne permet pas vraiment de se distinguer de la masse?
C’est un effet d’optique de croire que le quotidien médiatique du lieu de résidence est d’un niveau de mièvrerie perverse supérieur à …. ailleurs.
Il y a vraiment du remake dans l’air. A 600 yens la cannette d’oxygène à 95% - 35 bouffées de 2 secondes - c’est moins cher qu’il y a 15 ans. En vente chez Seven-Eleven. Deux parfums. La cannette, et les bars à oxygène que j’allais photographier pour la presse scientifique et ironique française d’alors, sont des symboles de la dégénérescence du temps de la précédente bulle économique, circa 1990. Les acteurs sont de retour. Manque à l’appel le gaz hilarant qui avait eu un certain succès d’estime chez les adultes d’un âge incertain.
C’est un effet d’optique de croire que la bêtise au quotidien du lieu de résidence est plus endémique que … ailleurs.
Mais l’étendue des solutions alternatives d’ailleurs laisse songeur, comme la longue liste des festivals d’été en France. Tout simplement étonnant.
Hier soir rentrant d’une course, j’ai vu au coin près de l’entrée de l’immeuble le petit Y. qui est le grand-frère du plus petit K. - the best friend of who you know - frappant dans le vide des balles invisibles de sa batte de baseball. Les annonceurs ont de quoi se faire du mouron. Le football est vraiment mort et enterré.
C. est surpris de cet étalage de soi dans ce blog, s’entend, l’usage du nom au lieu d’un pseudo. La simple mention du nom est osée. C’est comme qui dirait, se permettre d’avoir pignon sur rue, se poser une plaque sur la devanture sans être un notable dans les catégories reconnues comme telles: médecin, avocat.
Quelle surprise alors de cliquer par hasard sur le blog d’un maître-tailleur, en français. Suprise d’y reconnaître en partie un clône d’un blog anglais que j’avais perdu de vue. La ressemblance est parfois surprenante: English versus French. Mais bon, on ne va tout de même pas se mettre à la chasse au copier-coller-clôner, sinon, on y passerais sa vie.
Il manque pourtant au clône trois éléments qui font toute la différence avec la formule d’origine:
1. le nom du tailleur - pas de pseudo
2. sa photo - et…
3. sa capacité, on verra à l’usage, de mentionner à l’occasion des confrères.
En attendant, le maître-tailleur français m’a remémoré des plans de travail, énormes commodes pour étaler les étoffes, avec pleins de tiroirs, des ciseaux collossaux coupant comme des rasoirs, et des craies au savon qui ressemblent un peu aux plectres de shamisen. Et le mot schmatte - tissu, en Yiddish. Que le maître-tailleur en soit ici remercié.
C’est un effet d’optique de croire, à la lecture de cette enseigne, que ce coiffeur offre des coupes, des permanentes, et du sexe.

Mets land Santana for four prospects Deal contingent on Minnesota ace agreeing to extension
A conditional trade, negotiated Tuesday, has put two-time Cy Young Award winner Johan Santana on their doorstep, though not yet in their rotation, and given them a potential means of repairing some of the damage caused by their shortfall last September.
At a seemingly reasonable price -- swift outfielder Carlos Gomez and young pitchers Philip Humber, Kevin Mulvey and Deolis Guerra -- the Mets have satisfied the Twins. Now, they have until 5 p.m. ET on Friday to satisfy Santana, who, armed with a no-trade clause potentially as effective as his world-class changeup, can veto the trade if the Mets don't make him happy.
The trade, if it is finalized, will rival those the Mets made over the years to import Rusty Staub, George Foster, Keith Hernandez, Gary Carter, Bret Saberhagen, Frank Viola, Mike Piazza and Carlos Delgado. Only the acquisitions of Staub in April 1972, Hernandez in June 1983, Carter in December 1984, Piazza in May 1998 and Delgado in November 2005 led to the Mets eventually playing in the postseason. Only Carter joined a team with more talent than the current team has.
A person involved with the Mets' pursuit of Santana said Tuesday morning, "We don't know where we stand, and we don't know what the player wants." But within hours, the trade was in place.
Now a daunting task remains -- negotiate a contract bound to exceed $100 million, against the clock. But, at this point, with the Mets having accomplished what neither the Yankees nor Red Sox could -- and there is strong evidence neither club was as driven to acquire Santana as the Mets were -- it seems improbable that the club would allow Santana to slip through its hands.
The Mets' need to restore their credibility as a contender in the National League East and with their fan base -- and also resume their push toward opening Citi Field in 2009 -- adds other elements to Santana's considerable value as an athlete. In that sense, the effect of acquiring Santana would be similar to that of the signing of Pedro Martinez in December 2004.
Santana essentially would displace Martinez as the Mets' No. 1 starting pitcher. With him in place, the rotation would include Santana, Martinez, John Maine, Oliver Perez and either Mike Pelfrey or Orlando Hernandez, and change from something of a liability into a certain asset.
If Pelfrey were to be the No. 5 starter, the Mets could use Hernandez in relief as they did briefly in the final days of last season. The trade, if completed, would eliminate the need for the Mets to sign El Duque's half-brother, Livan Hernandez, a free agent the club had pursued.
A person in Major League Baseball confirmed on Tuesday afternoon that the conditional trade was in place and that the Mets had agreed to spend four young players for a soon-to-turn-29 left-handed pitcher who has produced an 82-35 record in the last five seasons. The 72-hour period during which the Mets may negotiate with Santana's agent, Peter Greenberg, is similar to the scenario that existed when the Mets obtained Foster from the Reds just prior to Spring Training in 1982 and when they re-acquired Tom Seaver from the Reds 10 months later.
The Mets have declined to comment on the circumstances, and as recently as 5 p.m. ET on Tuesday, they had yet to notify at least one of the players involved. General manager Omar Minaya and club chief operation officer Jeff Wilpon, attending the B.A.T. dinner in Manhattan, didn't acknowledge an agreement. Minaya said, "It [the trade] is out there, but the bottom line is that we'll continue to try to look at ways to improve our club. That's all I'm going to be able to say right now ... We're still working hard to try and find ways to improve our club. I always try to be optimistic about how we're going to improve the roster on a daily basis."
But when word of the conditional trade spread, excitement developed in the Mets' camp. Billy Wagner, the Mets closer who had unsettled club officials with public comments after Tom Glavine's departure in November, said, "This is what I was talking about. Now there'll be that excitement in [Spring Training] camp that we had in 2006. It was missing last year. If we get Johan Santana, we're back to being one of the five best teams in the game. I couldn't be happier."
And David Wright, also attending the B.A.T. dinner, said: "When I think of an ace, I think of a guy that you know is going to get you a win every five days. There's a handful of those guys out there, there's not many. And Johan's one of those guys."
Santana won the AL Cy Young Award in 2004 and 2006, winning 20 and 19 games, respectively, in those seasons. His record last season, 15-13, included his lowest win total in four seasons and as many losses as he had suffered in the previous two seasons combined. He won eight of first 12 decisions and produced a 2.60 ERA in his first 13 starts last season. But he won merely four of his subsequent 14 starts, losing seven. His ERA in his final seven starts was 5.11.
No matter, he is widely regarded as one of the game's elite pitchers. He and Perez would give the Mets two left-handed starters, as they had last season with Glavine and Perez.
Santana would help the Mets immediately, of course. The players in the package hardly were primary in the club's plans for 2008. Even Gomez, who started 34 games and played in 18 others, wasn't guaranteed playing time because the Mets had obtained Ryan Church. The Mets wanted him to continue his development in the Minor Leagues.
Mulvey had become the Mets' most sought after prospect after Gomez and fellow outfielder Fernando Martinez, surpassing Humber in the eyes of other clubs. Guerra is a Class A pitcher. Humber and Mulvey might have pitched in the big leagues in 2008.
Martinez is the Mets' prize prospect. Minaya told people as recently as Sunday he didn't want to include the 19-year-old left-handed hitter in the package. The Twins had sought him, but even when they asked the Mets to make their best offer on Monday, the Mets didn't include Martinez.
With the Mets opposed to dealing Martinez, the inclusion of Gomez was almost a given.
As it is, the package the Twins have accepted will leave the Mets short of high-level Minor League talent and strap them if they need to deal during the season because of injury or after the season when it's possible Martinez, Hernandez, Carlos Delgado and Moises Alou will end their tenures with the club.

Santana pitching against the Tampa Bay Devil Rays at Tropicana Field, May 6, 2005
In a deal announced Tuesday, the Minnesota Twins have traded pitcher Johan Santana to the New York Mets. The trade is yet to be finalized, pending a physical examination and agreement on a contract extension, but an agreement is expected to be made before 5:00 EST Friday.
In exchange for the three-time all-star and two-time Cy Young award winner, the Twins would receive outfielder Carlos Gómez, and three right-handed pitchers, Philip Humber, Deolis Guerra, and Kevin Mulvey.
Santana is reportedly looking for a 6 to 7 year deal worth around US$150 million, and has been on the trading block for some months now. This trade comes just days after the Twins signed multi-year contracts to two of their other stars, Michael Cuddyer and Justin Morneau. Cuddyer signed a three-year, $24 million deal, and Morneau was given $80 million over six years.
Santana has a 93-44 in his 6 season career with the Twins, recording over 235 strikeouts per season the past 3 seasons. He is one of 14 players to have won the Cy Young more than once, in 2004 and 2006, and he was a MLB All-Star in 2005, 2006, and 2007.

SANTANA DEAL SANTANA DEAL FANTASY ANALYSIS FANTASY ANALYSIS It's a pretty disappointing day for Twins fans. Both packages being discussed by the Red Sox and Yankees during the winter meetings seemed more attractive to us. Carlos Gomez and Deolis Guerra are big-time talents, but Gomez lacks plate discipline and might not fit in the top half of the lineup and an awful lot could go wrong before Guerra even sniffs the majors. Kevin Mulvey and Phil Humber are third starters at best and probably more like fourths. It's a whole lot better than losing Santana for draft picks next winter, but we'd have taken a Phil Hughes or Jacoby Ellsbury package over this. By Rotoworld.com The Mets, ridiculed in New York for inactivity since their season-ending collapse late-season collapse last season, won the biggest prize of the winter, reaching an agreement to acquire two-time Cy Young winner Johan Santana from the Minnesota Twins. The deal, agreed to Tuesday morning according to two high-ranking Twins officials involved in the trade talks and a Mets official, is contingent on Santana waiving his no-trade clause. The Mets have been granted a 72-hour window that will expire at 5 p.m. ET Friday to work out a contract extension with Santana. Santana, eligible for free agency after the season, is in position to become is seeking to become the highest-paid pitcher in baseball history, surpassing San Francisco Giants starter Barry Zito's seven-year, $126 million deal. Peter Greenberg, Santana's agent who has a strong working relationship with New York Mets general manager Omar Minaya, declined comment on Santana's salary request. The Twins stand to receive outfielder Carlos Gomez and minor-league pitchers Phil Humber, Deolis Guerra and Kevin Mulvey. Gomez, 22, who hit .232 last season, is expected to replace center fielder Torii Hunter, the Twins' seven-time Gold Glove winner who signed a five-year, $90 million contract in November with the Los Angeles Angels. "I hate to hear that," Hunter said, when told of the trade. "I mean, I'm happy for Johan, but he meant so much for that organization. I'm sad for the Twins' organization and all of the fans out there. They loved Johan. This is going to be tough for them to swallow." The Twins offered Santana a four-year, $80 million extension two months ago, but he rejected the offer. The Mets, barring a breakdown in contract negotiations, now inherit the most dominant pitcher in baseball since 2003. Santana is 82-35 with a 2.92 ERA, including 1,152 strikeouts the last five years. "The Mets are not only getting a Cy Young winner," Hunter said, "but an absolute bulldog who?s great in the clubhouse. He's going to dominate that league. They're going to absolutely love him in New York." "I know he's happy, too, because he really wanted to go to the Mets. He's always wanted to swing the wood. He can hit. "So I don't know who's happier, Johan, the Mets, or everyone in the American League because they don't have to face him anymore." The Twins, who had trade talks over the last two months with the Boston Red Sox, New York Yankees, Seattle Mariners and the Mets, told teams they wanted a final offer by Monday. The Red Sox's final offer included starter Jon Lester and center fielder Jacoby Ellsbury in separate packages but was scaled back from initial proposals, including lesser prospects, according to a high-ranking Red Sox official.

OFFSEASON SCORECARD OFFSEASON SCORECARD List of available free agents this offseason Players filing for arbitration Johan Santana might not be a Minnesota Twin much longer, but the small-market club gained some certainty regarding two of its core position players. First baseman Justin Morneau, the 2006 AL MVP, received the most lucrative contract in Twins history — an $80 million, six-year deal — and outfielder Michael Cuddyer got three years and $24 million. Santana, the two-time Cy Young Award winner entering the final year of his contract, still could be traded before spring training begins. General manager Bill Smith reiterated his preference to keep Santana but said the team would look at all other options. He added that these two contracts do not affect any other players. "I don't think it's any great change in philosophy," Smith said. But the deal offers Morneau and Cuddyer financial security while locking both up through the opening of the Twins' new stadium in 2010. "It's pretty cool," Morneau said after his record deal was announced Friday. "I guess it means I'm buying all the time." Cust denies allegation: Oakland Athletics DH Jack Cust says he's never used steroids, contrary to what former minor league teammate Larry Bigbie told former senator George Mitchell's investigation. "No. No. Not even one game," Cust told reporters Saturday at the A's fan festival. "I was surprised and upset the way it came up." In the Mitchell Report, Bigbie says Cust in 2003 admitted to him he used steroids and could procure steroids for him. The two were teammates for Baltimore's Class AAA affiliate in Ottawa. Short hops: Tampa Bay Rays first baseman Carlos Pena passed a physical, and thus finalized a three-year deal worth $24.1 million. … Officials in Goodyear, Ariz., said they will consider a 90-day agreement that gives them negotiating rights with the Cincinnati Reds about relocating the team's spring training base. The Reds' spring home is in Sarasota, Fla., where county officials this week delayed a decision on providing $18 million for a $41 million upgrade of Ed Smith Stadium.

Der Landesvater Vor 75 Jahren: Johannes Rau wird geboren
Johannes Rau
Oberbürgermeister, Ministerpräsident, Bundespräsident: Der Sozialdemokrat Johannes Rau hat in seiner politischen Karriere fast alles erreicht. Nur Bundeskanzler ist er nicht geworden - aber immerhin Kandidat. "Ich habe meine politische Arbeit immer so verstanden, dass ich versucht habe, Menschen zusammenzuführen. Das war mir wichtiger, als Gedankengebäude zu errichten", sagt Rau. Er traue sich zu, Menschen "unterschiedlicher Stärken und Schwächen so zu einem Team zu binden, dass daraus ein harmonisches und erfolgreiches Spiel wird."
Johannes Rau wird am 16. Januar 1931 in Wuppertal-Barmen als Sohn des Predigers Ewald Rau und seiner Ehefrau Helene geboren. Er ist das dritte von insgesamt fünf Kindern. Während der Schulzeit engagiert er sich in Bibelkreisen. Von der Bekennenden Kirche übernimmt er sein Lebensmotto: "Ich halte stand, weil ich gehalten werde." Das Gymnasium verlässt Rau ohne Abitur. 1949 beginnt er eine Lehre als Verlagsbuchhändler und arbeitet als Journalist. Drei Jahre später wird Rau Mitglied der "Gesamtdeutschen Volkspartei" ( GVP ) von Gustav Heinemann, die sich für die deutsche Einheit einsetzt. Als die GVP 1957 aufgelöst wird, tritt Rau zusammen mit seinem politischen Mentor Heinemann in die SPD ein. In seiner Heimatstadt wird Rau Stadtverordneter, Vorsitzender der SPD -Fraktion und Oberbürgermeister.
In den nordrhein-westfälischen Landtag wird Rau erstmals 1958 gewählt. Er übernimmt den Vorsitz der SPD-Fraktion, wird Wissenschafts- und Forschungsminister und NRW - SPD -Landesvorsitzender. 1978 wählt ihn der Landtag zum Regierungschef. Bis 1998 geht die SPD unter seiner Führung in NRW jeweils als stärkste Partei aus den Landtagswahlen hervor. Dann - nach 20 Jahren an der Spitze des Bundeslandes - tritt Rau als "Landesvater" und Vorsitzender der NRW - SPD zurück. Auch in der Bundespolitik ist "Bruder Johannes" ein bestimmender Faktor: Ab 1968 gehört er dem SPD -Bundesparteivorstand an, ab 1978 dem Parteipräsidium. Vier Jahre später wird er Nachfolger von Helmut Schmidt als stellvertretender SPD -Chef. 1987 scheitert er als Kanzlerkandidat gegen Bundeskanzler Helmut Kohl ( CDU ).
Link Monatsübersicht
Raus Versuch, 1994 Bundespräsident zu werden, misslingt ebenfalls. Er unterliegt dem damaligen Unionskandidaten Roman Herzog. Doch fünf Jahre später setzt sich Rau durch und wird zum achten Bundespräsidenten Deutschlands gewählt. In dieser Funktion spricht er im Februar 2000 als erster deutscher Politiker vor der Knesset, dem israelischen Parlament: "Ich bitte um Vergebung für das, was Deutsche getan haben. Für mich und meine Generation, um unserer Kinder und Kindeskinder willen, deren Zukunft ich an der Seite der Kinder Israels sehen möchte." Nach gesundheitlichen Problemen verzichtet Rau auf eine zweite Amtszeit. In seiner letzten Rede als Bundespräsident warnt er am 12. Mai 2004 die Politik vor einer tiefen Vertrauenskrise in der Bevölkerung.

Johannes Rau
Der Altbundespräsident und frühere nordrhein-westfälische Ministerpräsident Johannes Rau wird heute 75 Jahre alt. 50 Jahre seines Lebens gestaltete Rau die Politik Deutschlands mit. Aus der Nachkriegszeit sind nur noch wenige Weggenossen Raus am Leben. Sein Vorbild in der Politik war der SPD-Mann Gustav Heinemann. Mit ihm begann er 1952
seine politische Laufbahn in der „Gesamtdeutschen Volkspartei“ (GVP). Nach seinem Wechsel in die SPD wurde Rau bald zur Führungskraft in dieser Partei, und 1978 übernahm er das Amt des Ministerpräsidenten. 1999 wurde er Bundespräsident.
Der Altbundespräsident lässt sich seit einiger Zeit nur noch selten in der Öffentlichkeit sehen. Dies wird unter anderem seinem Gesundheitszustand zugeschrieben, der seit dem Ende seiner Amtszeit am 1. Juli 2004 sehr wechselhaft ist. Trotzdem ist er ab und zu zu sehen. Kürzlich weilte Rau in Dresden bei der Einweihung der wiederaufgebauten Frauenkirche, heute folgt er einer Einladung seines Nachfolgers Horst Köhler. Dieser richtet einen Geburtstagsempfang im neu renovierten Schloss Bellevue für Rau aus. Der am 16. Januar 1931 in Wuppertal geborene Politiker lebt heute mit seiner Frau in Berlin. Doch auch in Wuppertal wird gefeiert. Kommenden Donnerstag findet ihm zu Ehren in der dortigen Stadthalle ein Empfang statt. Rau war von 1969 bis 1970 Oberbürgermeister dieser Stadt. Der Jubilar ist außerdem Ehrenbürger von Wuppertal und von Berlin.

Nadia Fanchini a signé à 22 ans sa première victoire en Coupe du monde de ski alpin, qui confirme un potentiel jusqu'alors partiellement inexploité en raison de problèmes de santé. Avec son 5e podium sur le circuit majeur, la Lombarde a retrouvé la forme, comme l'avait déjà attesté sa 2e place en descente vendredi, après une année 2007 très difficile tant au plan physique que moral. L'ex-triple championne du monde juniors s'était déjà blessée au genou droit (rupture ligamentaire) à la fin de la saison 2006-2007. Alors qu'elle s'apprêtait, après trois mois de convalescence, à rechausser les skis, la commission médicale du Comité olympique national italien (CONI) l'avait contrainte à s'arrêter pour des anomalies cardiaques.
C'est que, depuis ses nombreux succès chez les jeunes, la skieuse, résidant près de Brescia, avait le c&oeligur qui s'emballait, avec des manifestations de panique et de vomissements notamment avant les courses. Le CONI l'avait autorisée en janvier à poursuivre sa carrière et Nadia, s'estimant pourtant à "50 % de son potentiel" car à court d'entraînement, avait affiché un gros c&oeligur pour accrocher deux podiums en descente, 3e à Sestrières (Italie) et à Crans-Montana (Suisse).
Lake Louise Lake Louise en chiffres 03/12/2009 À 07:30
"C'est un jour fantastique, peut-être le plus beau de ma vie. J'ai seulement pensé à bien skier, à rester calme. C'est dans la partie basse que j'ai fait la différence", a expliqué l'Italienne, sortie du mur le plus vite de toutes.
Frangines
Elle a eu évidemment une pensée pour sa s&oeligur aînée Elena, 23 ans, obligée de faire l'impasse sur la saison après s'être blessée fin octobre, à l'entraînement, au genou gauche. Le fil entre les deux frangines est tout trouvé. Elena avait remporté à Lake Louise sa seule victoire et également podium de Coupe du monde, il y a trois ans en descente.
"C'est vraiment super d'avoir fait comme elle. C'est la piste des Fanchini, maintenant je peux le dire", s'est exclamée la lauréate, à son 3e podium dans l'Alberta. Dans des conditions difficiles, la neige et le manque de visibilité ayant contraint les organisateurs à retarder le départ, Fanchini, dossard 5, a devancé Fabienne Suter et l'Autrichienne Andrea Fischbacher, ex aequo à la deuxième place à 28/100. Le duo avait déjà connu pareille situation mais pour la 1re place. C'était déjà en super-G, la saison dernière à Sestrières. Seulement 9e à 60/100, Lindsey Vonn-Kildow, la championne US aux 5 succès à Lake Louise, conserve néanmoins nettement la tête, après six épreuves, du classement général de la Coupe du monde. Vingtième, Marie Marchand-Arvier a été la meilleure d'une équipe de France qui s'est un peu perdue dans le parc national de Banff.

Al menos 26 muertos en atentados coordinados de los talibanes en Kabul
KABUL (AFP) — Los talibanes perpetraron el miércoles una serie de atentados coordinados contra oficinas del gobierno afgano en Kabul que mataron a al menos 26 personas, además de a ocho kamikazes, dejando claro que la insurrección islamista se intensifica y se vuelve más audaz.
"El saldo es ahora de 26 muertos y 55 heridos", dijo el portavoz del ministerio de Sanidad, Abdula Fahim, revisando anteriores balances al alza y haciendo hincapié en que "la mayoría de las victimas son civiles".
Posteriormente, el presidente afgano, Hamid Karzai, anunció haber ordenado a las fuerzas de seguridad que inicien una investigación para capturar a los responsables de los ataques.
Estos mostraron que "los enemigos del pueblo de Afganistán siempre están listos para perturbar la vida normal (...) y matar despiadadamente a inocentes", agregó el presidente en un comunicado.
En los atentados murieron también ocho kamikazes, bien por sus propias bombas o por disparos de las fuerzas del orden, señaló el ministerio de Defensa.
Un portavoz de los talibanes, Zabihullah Mujahid, reivindicó los ataques en una llamada telefónica a la AFP, asegurando que fueron 16 los kamikazes que entraron en la capital afgana para cometer la ola de atentados.
Según Mujahid, los ataque en Kabul fueron cometidos para vengar la ejecución por parte del gobierno de varios presos talibanes.
"Presos talibanes fueron torturados sin pruebas", sostuvo Mujahid al advertir sobre más ataques en el futuro.
Durante la mañana, dos kamikazes hicieron estallar bombas en la entrada de un edificio de la administración penitenciaria en el norte de la capital afgana, causando varios muertos.
Un poco más tarde, otros cuatro kamikazes que habían logrado entrar en la sede del ministerio de Justicia, en el centro de la ciudad, murieron en tiroteos con las fuerzas del orden. También murieron policías y civiles.
Las fuerzas de seguridad mataron a un séptimo kamikaze cuando intentaba entrar en el edificio del ministerio de Educación.
La ola de atentados sembró el pánico en la capital afgana, convertida en escenario de ataques cada vez más frecuentes y audaces.
Son la prueba, según los observadores, de que la insurrección gana terreno e intensidad, pese al despliegue de 70.000 militares extranjeros, 37.000 de ellos estadounidenses.
Los ataques del miércoles se producen pocos días antes de que el presidente estadounidense, Barack Obama, tome una decisión sobre el eventual envío de otros 30.000 soldados adicionales a Afganistán, una guerra que se ha convertido en una de sus prioridades.
"Creo que tomará una decisión probablemente en los próximos días", declaró el martes el secretario de Defensa, Robert Gates.
La violencia también se dejó sentir en otras partes de Afganistán. Así, ocho guardias de seguridad afganos murieron en el estallido de dos bombas en una carretera de la sureña provincia de Helmand, uno de los feudos de los talibanes y donde hay desplegados más de 8.000 soldados británicos.
Asimismo, un oficial francés murió el miércoles en la provincia de Logar, al sureste de Kabul, en un enfrentamiento con insurgentes tras la explosión de una mina artesanal, anunció el ministerio francés de Defensa en un comunicado emitido en París.
En el enfrentamiento también murió un intérprete afgano y otro militar francés resultó gravemente herido, precisó la nota.
El presidente francés, Nicolas Sarkozy, condenó en un comunicado la "violencia ciega" y expresó la determinación de seguir trabajando por "el restablecimiento de la paz en Afganistán", donde Francia tiene desplegados 2.800 hombres.
Con la nueva baja, ascienden a 25 los militares franceses muertos en el país asiático desde el despliegue del contingente, en 2002.

Tres atentados contra edificios gubernamentales dejaron un saldo de por lo menos 26 personas muertas y 55 heridos en la capital afgana, de acuerdo a lo confirmado por un portavoz del ministerio de Sanidad.
El triple atentado perpetrado hacia las 10:00 horas locales del miércoles (5:00 UTC) tuvo como objetivos los Ministerios de Justicia, Educación y Economía y la cárcel central de Kabul, los cuales fueron tomados por grupos separados de 16 kamikazes talibanes, 8 de los cuales también fallecieron en estas acciones.
Horas más tarde un portavoz de los talibanes informó a través de una llamada telefónica a France-Press que los ataques se realizaron en venganza por la ejecución de presos talibanes y advirtió sobre nuevos ataques en los próximos días.
Por su parte el gobierno aseguró que fuerzas de seguridad están adelantando las investigaciones correspondientes.
Los atentados se producen horas antes de la visita programada por Richard Holbrooke, enviado especial de Estados Unidos para Afganistán y Pakistán.

In addition to fines, a speaker system which allows people to press a button and remind smokers they are breaking the law has been installed at the Grange Hospital in Cwmbran and the Royal Gwent Hospital in Newport.

Wales at hospitals, schools, and playgrounds Monday, with violators to face a 100 fine. It will be the first of the UK to do so.
This is in addition to various restrictions on the practice, including a ban on smoking in enclosed public spaces in place since 2007 and a ban on smoking in cars with children in place since 2015.
The , controlled by left-wing party , said the measure was to discourage adults and children alike from smoking by making it appear less normal, and encourage the already partaking to quit.
Two hospitals in the country's south began installing a button-activated speaker system which will remind people hospitals are smoke-free. In 2016, a similar mechanism was tried at hospitals across Wales, where upon pressing a button an announcement would play recorded by local schoolchildren.
Minister for Mental Health, Wellbeing, and the Welsh Language said she was "immensely proud to have brought this force into law", and "this legislation will benefit the health of future generations in Wales, as fewer children will be exposed to smoking". She concluded, "we need to do everything we can to combat the ."
The government was criticised by many smokers rights groups. Simon Clark, Director of the compared the law to "taking a sledgehammer to crack a nut", and claimed "there is no evidence that smoking in the open air poses a risk to anyone else's health, including children." He also claimed the ban on smoking in hospitals was "unjust", because it would restrict those "in need of a comforting cigarette".

Wales has become the first of the UK nations to make it illegal to smoke on hospital and school grounds, public playgrounds and other outdoor day care and childminding settings.
A penalty of up to £100 could be given to anyone breaking the law, which is aimed at helping to discourage people from starting smoking and to support those trying to quit.
The Labour-led government said it also hoped to protect more people from being exposed to secondhand smoke and reduce the chances of children taking up the habit by making it seem less normal.
In an effort to enforce the legislation and raise awareness of the smoke-free requirements, an audio-speaker system with a push-button pad is being installed at entrances at two hospitals in south Wales, the Grange University hospital in Cwmbran and the Royal Gwent in Newport.
Anyone who sees someone smoking on the site can press a button that will play a recorded message to remind people smoking is not permitted. Smoke-free enforcement officers employed by the health board will also be patrolling hospital grounds.
Matt Lloyd, who has been working as a one of Aneurin Bevan University Health Board’s smoke-free enforcement officers, said: “The majority of smokers stop when I approach them. I then remind them about our smoke-free environment policy and the new law.
“If somebody refuses to stop smoking, I talk to them about why we have the policy and the law. If they are a patient, I can contact their ward manager who will offer them nicotine replacement therapy.”
The Welsh minister for mental health and wellbeing, Eluned Morgan, said it was a proud day for Wales. She said: “We are immensely proud to have brought into force this law. We’ve seen the impact of the indoor smoking ban and we hope this will be similarly successful.”
Forest, a group that campaigns to protect the interests of adults who choose to smoke or consume tobacco, said the law was unnecessary and wrong.
Its director, Simon Clark, said: “The new law is taking a sledgehammer to crack a nut. There is no evidence that smoking in the open air poses a risk to anyone else’s health, including children. Nor is there evidence that a significant number of people are routinely lighting up in the places where smoking will now be prohibited.”
“Banning smoking on hospital grounds is particularly unjust because it targets smokers who may be stressed and in need of a comforting cigarette. Most smokers use their common sense and don’t smoke around small children. They don’t need politicians telling them how to behave.”

Wales at hospitals, schools, and playgrounds Monday, with violators to face a 100 fine. It will be the first of the UK to do so.
This is in addition to various restrictions on the practice, including a ban on smoking in enclosed public spaces in place since 2007 and a ban on smoking in cars with children in place since 2015.
The , controlled by left-wing party , said the measure was to discourage adults and children alike from smoking by making it appear less normal, and encourage the already partaking to quit.
Two hospitals in the country's south began installing a button-activated speaker system which will remind people hospitals are smoke-free. In 2016, a similar mechanism was tried at hospitals across Wales, where upon pressing a button an announcement would play recorded by local schoolchildren.
Minister for Mental Health, Wellbeing, and the Welsh Language said she was "immensely proud to have brought this force into law", and "this legislation will benefit the health of future generations in Wales, as fewer children will be exposed to smoking". She concluded, "we need to do everything we can to combat the ."

West Wales hospitals are tackling smokers on site with new push-button speaker announcements, voiced by local school children
Hywel Dda University Health Board is the first in Wales to launch the system to curb smoking at Carmarthenshire, Ceredigion and Pembrokeshire hospitals.
It enables people to anonymously push a red button which triggers an announcement reminding them hospitals are smoke-free.
The bilingual messages were recorded by pupils at Pembrokeshire's Wolfscastle school and they went to launch the scheme at Withybush Hospital in Haverfordwest, along with the health board's Rebecca Evans.

Scientists take aim at cigarettes
Smokers’ litter is toxic to fish, project shows
CIGARETTE BUTTS They have two parts: a plastic filter and the remnants of a smoked cigarette. They’re considered the No. 1 littered item in the world, and more than 1 million are collected annually in beach cleanups nationwide. They’re targeted by groups trying to raise cigarette taxes for more litter-control projects. They’re toxic to fish. Source: cigwaste.org
Cigarettes don’t just kill people, they also kill fish.
So said San Diego State University researchers who are trying to build a case for labeling cigarette butts as toxic hazardous waste. That tag would prompt more rules to reduce their presence in the environment, though the bigger effect may be in public perception.
The San Diego scientists will present their conclusions today at the 137th annual meeting of the American Public Health Association in Philadelphia. They have submitted their results for publication in a peer-reviewed journal.
“It’s another way of looking at cigarettes as a societal hazard,” said Tom Novotny, a professor of public health at SDSU. “If we reframe the butts as toxic hazardous waste, that adds another opportunity to change the social acceptability of smoking.”
Robert Best, regional director of the smokers’ rights group Citizens Freedom Alliance in Ventura County, is skeptical.
“This is just another attack on smokers and an attack on the entire tobacco industry, including farmers and distributors, in the midst of an economic crisis,” Best said. “We already have littering laws in the state of California that say you cannot throw any trash out on the ground or in the waterways.”
In recent years, community and health activists have won bans on smoking at beaches from California to New Jersey. Lawmakers acted partly out of concern about secondhand smoke and partly to reduce the amount of cigarette butts discarded at parks and other places. In July, San Francisco added a 20-cent fee to each pack of cigarettes to cover the cost of collecting spent smokes.
Novotny and his collaborators in the Cigarette Butt Pollution Project want more controls on what they call the most littered object on Earth. Trillions of cigarettes are smoked worldwide each year, and more than 1 million butts are collected annually during coastal cleanups in the United States, according to the project.
Novotny wondered about the butts’ effects on waterways. He turned to Rick Gersberg, a professor of public health at SDSU who specializes in water pollution.
Gersberg, a former smoker, was intrigued enough to review the scientific literature and determine that there were no published studies addressing cigarette butts and fish.
It’s different “if I pour a little vial of carcinogenic chemicals on the street — just a tiny amount,” Gersberg said. “(But if) hundreds of thousands of people were doing so many times a day, wouldn’t someone worry about it? Probably so.”
Gersberg helped design an experiment in which he let smoked filters soak in containers of water for 24 hours. Then he put fish in the polluted water and monitored them for five days, part of what he called a standard hazard assessment.
Half the fish died in both salt and fresh water, Gersberg said.
The bigger question is whether cigarettes have a similar effect in the real world — something that hasn’t been evaluated.
“We’d like to look at the chemicals that are actually causing the toxicity and if they are accumulating in marine life,” Gersberg said.
The $110,000 study on cigarette butts included policy analysis and biological research. It was funded by the California Tobacco Related Disease Research Program, a University of California effort to reduce the health and economic costs of tobacco use.
At UC San Francisco’s tobacco-control center, Richard Barnes has offered ideas for reducing cigarette butt litter such as levying new taxes on tobacco products to pay for litter collection, strengthening penalties for cigarette litter and suing tobacco companies to recover cleanup costs.
The nonprofit Surfrider Foundation is trying a different approach. On Saturday, the group’s San Diego County chapter will hold its sixth annual “Hold Onto Your Butt” awareness program. The event will include demonstrations and giveaways at three beach communities in the region.
The SDSU research gives Surfrider more ammunition. “We have thought for a while that toxic chemicals leach from discarded butts when submerged in water, so it’s good in some ways to see confirmation,” said Bill Hickman from the group’s local chapter.

Chemicals that leach from cigarette butts into water can kill fish, according to Professors Tom Novotny and Rick Gersberg of San Diego State University. They have conducted the first scientific study of the effects of cigarette butts on fish and will present his research today at the American Public Health Association annual meeting in Philadelphia. The SDSU researchers are calling for cigarette butts to be officially reclassified as toxic waste.
Professor Novotny explained, "It’s another way of looking at cigarettes as a societal hazard. If we reframe the butts as toxic hazardous waste, that adds another opportunity to change the social acceptability of smoking."
Cigarettes are the most frequently littered item in the world. More than 1 million cigarette butts are collected annually in cleanups at United States beaches. Worldwide, several trillion cigarettes get smoked each year.
Professors Gersberg and Novotny allowed smoked cigarette filters to soak in water for 24 hours, then added fish to the tanks. Within five days half the fish had died. They obtained the same results with fresh water and with salt water at a concentration of roughly 1 butt per liter. Their research was funded by the Cigarette Butt Pollution Project of the California Tobacco Related Disease Research Program.
The regional director of a smokers' rights group is dismissive of their work. Robert Best of Citizens Freedom Alliance told the press "This is just another attack on smokers and an attack on the entire tobacco industry, including farmers and distributors, in the midst of an economic crisis. We already have littering laws in the state of California that say you cannot throw any trash out on the ground or in the waterways.”
Coastal states in the United States have been enacting bans on smoking at beaches. California and New Jersey have enacted bans to reduce secondhand smoke exposure and reduce litter. The city of San Francisco has added a 20 cent surcharge to each pack of cigarettes sold to cover costs of butt cleanup. A San Francisco litter audit led to an economic study that found the annual cost of cigarette butt disposal was $6 million. Oxford Outcomes spokesman Dr. John Schneider told the press the San Francisco cigarette surcharge was justified.
Robert Barnes of UC San Francisco endorses tobacco surcharges to pay for cleanup. He also supports steeper fines for cigarette litter and advocates lawsuits against the tobacco industry to compensate for cleanup costs. The Surfrider Foundation takes a milder approach. It has run a "Hold Onto Your Butt" litter awareness program for six years. Bill Hickman of the Surfrider Foundation was glad to see scientific validation for the awareness campaign. "We have thought for a while that toxic chemicals leach from discarded butts when submerged in water, so it’s good in some ways to see confirmation."
Gersberg and Novotny want to perform followup studies to determine which cigarette butt chemicals are most harmful to fish.

Cigarettes are deadly not only for humans, but also for fish, according to San Diego State University researchers who want cigarettes butts labeled as toxic hazardous waste, it was reported Monday.
Researchers believe the label would help change the public’s perception about the harm cigarette butts cause the environment and prompt more rules to reduce their presence, The San Diego Union-Tribune reported.
The San Diego scientists are scheduled to present their findings in Philadelphia today at the 137th annual meeting of the American Public Health Association. The researchers also submitted their results for publication in a peer-reviewed journal, according to the newspaper.

Moçambique faz parte de um grupo de 10 países na África Subsariana que são responsáveis por quase metade de todas as novas infecções por HIV que ocorreram entre meninas adolescentes e mulheres jovens globalmente. Quênia, Lesoto, Malawi, África do Sul, Suazilândia, Tanzânia, Uganda, Zâmbia e Zimbábue também fazem parte deste grupo.
Cheila da Graça Maribate é uma das embaixadoras da parceria público-privada DREAMS (Determinado, Resiliente, Empoderado, Livre de AIDS, Orientado e Seguro), uma iniciativa tem o objetivo de reduzir as taxas de HIV entre meninas adolescentes e mulheres jovens nos países com maior incidência de HIV. O projeto é financiada pelo PEPFAR (Plano de Emergência do Presidente dos Estados Unidos para Combate à Aids) e pela agência USAID (Agência dos Estados Unidos para o Desenvolvimento Internacional).
Em entrevista à Voz da América ela explicou que o projeto oferece diversos serviços para raparigas e jovens dos 10 aos 24 anos que se encontram em situação de vulnerabilidade, como assistência social, acompanhamento psicicológico a vítima de violência baseada no género, sessões informativas sobre a vida sexual e reprodutiva, a gravidez precoce e o casamento prematuro.
A embaixadora contou que embora o trabalho estivesse indo muito bem na antes da pandemia no bairro do Macurungo, cidade da Beira, o cenário mudou depois da quarentena.
"Nos últimos meses o resultado tem sido trágico. Não sei se é por causa da falta de ocupação das raparigas porque já não vão à escola. De alguma forma também os educadores, os pais, e os vizinhos ficaram sem empregabilidade. Acreditamos que isso contribuiu para o aumento da violência sexual e da gravidez precoce".
Antes da pandemia, Maribate organizava encontros que eram atendidos por 20 a 25 raparigas. Depois que a COVID-19 chegou a Moçambique, ela contou que teve que parar com as atividades. Agora Maribate já voltou a organizar os encontros na comunidade, mas a aderência das raparigas diminuiu consideralvemente. A participação não passa de 10 jovens por encontro.
Meninas e mulheres jovens são responsáveis por 74 por cento das novas infecções por HIV entre adolescentes na África Subsaariana e quase mil jovens são infectadas com HIV todos os dias. Somente em Moçambique, há 2,2 milhões de pessoas seropositivas e o país tem o segundo maior número de novas infecções no mundo, conforme levantamento feito pelo PEPFAR.
