Ih, što bi to bilo lepo! Ali moram da crnčim nad revizijama predloga za disertaciju i nad revizijom jednog članka. Za dve nedelje počinjem i da predajem, a od syllabusa i Blackboard stranice za kurs ni traga :( Ali već dugo me nema u Montrealu. Moraće to da se ispravi.

And now... tajni zakoni bez glasanja u provincijskoj skupštini. G20 law gives police sweeping powers to arrest people

June 25, 2010Jennifer Yang Dave Vasey appears to be the first person to be arrested under a new law allowing police to pick up people refusing to identify themselves near the G20 security zone.JAYME POISSON/TORONTO STAR The province has secretly passed an unprecedented regulation that empowers police to arrest anyone near the G20 security zone who refuses to identify themselves or agree to a police search.A 31-year-old man has already been arrested under the new regulation, which was quietly passed by the provincial cabinet on June 2.The regulation was made under Ontario’s Public Works Protection Act and was not debated in the Legislature. According to a provincial spokesperson, the cabinet action came in response to an “extraordinary request” by Toronto Police Chief Bill Blair, who wanted additional policing powers shortly after learning the G20 was coming to Toronto.The regulation kicked in Monday and will expire June 28, the day after the summit ends. While the new regulation appeared without notice on the province’s e-Laws online database last week, it won’t be officially published in The Ontario Gazette until July 3 — one week after the regulation expires.“It’s just unbelievable you would have this kind of abuse of power where the cabinet can create this offence without having it debated in the Legislature,” said Howard Morton, the lawyer representing Dave Vasey, who was arrested Thursday under the sweeping new police powers.“It was just done surreptitiously, like a mushroom growing under a rock at night.”According to the new regulation, “guards” appointed under the act can arrest anyone who, in specific areas, comes within five metres of the security zone.Within those areas, police can demand identification from anyone coming within five metres of the fence perimeter and search them. If they refuse, they face arrest. Anyone convicted under the regulation could also face up to two months in jail or a $500 maximum fine.“It reminds me a little bit of the War Measures Act,” said lawyer Nathalie Des Rosiers of the new regulation. Des Rosiers is a lawyer with the Canadian Civil Liberties Association, which has been working to monitor arrests during the summit. “This is highly unusual to have this declaration done by order-in-council without many people knowing about it.”Des Rosiers learned of the regulation Thursday afternoon, shortly after Vasey was arrested while standing near the security fence.Vasey said he was exploring the G20 security perimeter with a friend when they were stopped by police and asked for identification. Vasey says he had also been searched by police the night before.According to Vasey, police explained there was a bylaw in place obligating him to provide identification but he refused, acting on the advice of a “Know Your Rights” information pamphlet given to him by the Toronto Community Mobilization Network, a group assisting protesters.The York University master’s student was taken into custody at around 4 p.m. He was brought to the Eastern Ave. detention centre, a former movie studio that has been temporarily converted into a prisoner holding pen. According to his charge sheet, he was charged with refusing to comply with a peace officer under the act.Vasey said he only learned of the new regulation after his release, at around 9 p.m. The summit’s Integrated Security Unit did not respond to interview requests from the Star.According to Vasey’s lawyer, neither he nor his colleagues at the law union were aware of this draconian new regulation. Des Rosiers said the CCLA and protesters have met with summit officials on several occasions and the regulation was never mentioned.“They don’t even have signs up saying you can’t be within five metres or you’re subject to the following,” Morton said. “If they really wanted to keep the peace, they would have announced the regulation.”According to Laura Blondeau, an aide to Community Safety Minister Rick Bartolucci, the regulation “ensures that police have the legal authority” they need for such a massive security zone.“They really wanted to ensure they could provide a certain level of security,” Blondeau said Thursday. “The regulation does not include private residences or businesses. It’s for certain streets and sidewalks in the security perimeter.”Blondeau said “rightly or wrongly,” the new regulation can be compared with airport security.“You don’t have to get on that plane if you don’t want to be searched and wanded,” she said, adding that Bartolucci carefully weighed public safety and civil liberty concerns before agreeing to the one-time amendment.“It was an extraordinary request. This is just for Toronto, just for the G20,” she said. “Given the environment that the police were expecting, they needed to be prepared.”Blondeau emphasized the law only affects those trying to enter the security zone and applies solely to police officers, not to private security guards contracted for the summit.If someone declines to comply it empowers the police to turn them away — or face being searched.According to government lawyers, the regulation was passed by cabinet using what is known as a “covering” order-in-council.“The authority for the regulation is contained in the PWPA (Public Works Protection Act). The PWPA authorizes the designation by cabinet of places as ‘public works,’” the lawyers said.The Public Works Protection Act was created in 1990 and defines a “public work” as everything from a railway to a bridge or a provincial building. The act says any other building, place or work can also be “designated a public work by the Lieutenant Governor in Council.”Morton said he’s unaware of any precedents to such a regulation being passed in Ontario and questions if it is even constitutional.Des Rosiers said the regulation runs contrary to the Charter of Rights because it prohibits people from generally circulating on public land.The G20 security fence has been a magnet for passersby and protesters alike, with many people approaching to take pictures or just quench their curiosity.For Des Rosiers, she is especially worried because most people, including protesters, will operate under the assumption they have a right to refuse handing over identification to police.“Protesters would have been told that the law of the land is that you don’t have to talk to police officers if you don’t want to,” she said. “This changes things because even if you attempt to approach, it gives the power to the guard to demand identification.“It’s a significant intrusion on people’s rights.”With files from Robert Benzie and Jayme Poisson

Hampshire workmen paint white lines around dead badger _48372135_badgerpic.jpg The dead badger has been removed and the lines will be painted Workmen painting white lines on a road left a gap for a dead badger because they said it was not their responsibility to move it. The animal had been killed about a week before on the A338 near Downton, on the Hampshire-Wiltshire border. Hampshire County Council said the workers did what they thought "was best" because it is the district council's job to remove carcasses. The badger has now been removed and the painting will be completed on Friday. The county council said there would be no extra cost to taxpayers because the company was being paid a fixed rate for the job.http://www.bbc.co.uk...pshire-10650160

A Krispy Kreme cheeseburger? Only at the State FairPublished On Tue Aug 17 2010Email PrintRepublishAdd to Favourites Report an errorShareShare5456ArticleComments (4)The Krispy Kreme cheeseburger, served at the Wisconsin State Fair, uses a donut in place of a bun. For an extra dollar, patrons can get this dish with a side order of chocolate-covered bacon on a stick.BRAD VEST/MCTBy Cailley HammelMilwaukee Journal SentinelBetween the cream puffs and everything you can get on a stick, food at the Wisconsin State Fair is a dish best served over the top. Ladies and gentlemen, meet 2010’s early favorite: the Krispy Kreme Cheeseburger.Sold at the Machine Shed tent at the fair, the $5 burger features the normal patty and melted cheese, but with a Krispy Kreme doughnut for a bun. For an extra dollar, patrons can top the burger with last year’s big hit: chocolate-covered bacon on a stick (furthering the debate on whether the new dish is dinner or dessert).The calorie count: 1,000, according to Nathan Morrissey, executive chef at the Machine Shed.What’s the burger’s appeal?“Well, let’s see,” Dave Owens of Appleton, Wis., said at the fair’s opening day this month. “It’s a doughnut with chocolate-covered bacon and a cheeseburger put together. How could you go wrong?”Owens’ nephew, 9-year-old Harrison Smith, also of Appleton, had a bite of his uncle’s burger and had to have one for himself.“It’s really good,” he said.Todd Whittaker of Fond du Lac, Wis., came to the State Fair with his wife, Dawn, and their 16-month-old daughter, Bren. They were interested in trying the new burger after seeing a similar product on an episode of the Travel Channel show “Man vs. Food.”Dawn Whittaker was the first to take a bite.“It’s good! It’s different,” she said. “Kind of a little salty and sweet all at once.”Some at the fair tried the Krispy Kreme burger after stumbling on it by accident. Dan Hypki of South Milwaukee bought one, he said, “because it’s just odd.”But some had the burger in their sights as soon as they hit the fairgrounds.“It’s amazing!” said Brooke Brueser of Muskego, Wis., after her first bite of the burger. She came to the fair with her brother-in-law, James Stefanovich of West Allis, Wis.Stefanovich agreed.“Oh my God, forget about it,” he said. “That’s insane! I thought it was going to be really gross, but it’s amazing.”While the people trying the burger at the fair Thursday seemed to thoroughly enjoy the treat, for some, it’s just a State Fair thing.“Once a year is fine, but more than that—I’m in the hospital five out of seven days a week!” Stefanovich said, laughing.

Kopiram post s Multikulturalizma, da i ovde bidne zabeleženo: Kalgari izabrao gradonačelnika muslimana! :o Za one koji ne znaju, Kalgari i cela Alberta mu dođu kao kanadski Teksas, sa sve kaubojskim šeširima, konzervativnošću i naftom. cgy-nenshi-radio.jpg

Calgary mayor-elect downplays egghead imageHarvard-educated professor co-founded citizens groups, advised Fortune 500 firmsLast Updated: Tuesday, October 19, 2010 | 5:27 PM MTCBC NewsMayor-elect Naheed Nenshi tells the Calgary Eyeopener on Tuesday morning that he's bringing a new business model to city hall. (CBC)Calgary's new mayor-elect wrote the book on how to make Canadian cities work better — literally.Naheed Nenshi — a business professor at Calgary's Mount Royal University — was the lead author of Building Up: Making Canada's Cities Magnets for Talent and Engines of Development, a 2007 report on how cities can better attract and retain young talent and become engines of economic development.Seen as an underdog in Calgary's municipal election on Monday, 38-year-old Nenshi came from behind to get 40 per cent of the vote.His nearest competitor, longtime alderman Ric McIver, received 32 per cent of the vote.Speaking with CBC Radio's Calgary Eyeopener on Tuesday, Nenshi said the days of a city council fundamentally divided over almost every issue are over."We're going to have open, honest, fair discussions in the Calgarians' public eye, with the best possible facts on the table," Nenshi said."Then, we're going to make decisions, and then we're going to move on. And I am thrilled about bringing this new model into city hall."'I think this is a pivotal turning point in Canadian politics.'— Bruce Cameron, pollsterWhile Nenshi's recent background is as an academic, he has also worked in the private sector. He spent a number of years with the international business consulting firm McKinsey & Company before forming his own consultancy business."I actually came to academia very late in life," Nenshi told CBC News in the run-up to election day. "I worked in business, in very big business, on large organizational change with Fortune 500 companies, typically on projects that had budgets of $100 million and up, for many years."Nenshi, who holds a master's degree in public policy from Harvard University, has also advised the Calgary Foundation and the United Way.He has been a frequent critic of city council through the Better Calgary Campaign and the CivicCamp citizens group, both of which he co-founded.Nenshi's win shows city 'grown up': pollsterOne Calgary pollster said strategists everywhere will be looking at how the Nenshi campaign managed to get out the vote.Bruce Cameron of Return On Insight said Nenshi was able to attract groups that often don't vote."I think this is a pivotal turning point in Canadian politics," said Cameron. "The first time when you could identifiably say that social media, in activating a younger audience, won an election."In a city that traditionally — according to most media analysts — doesn't come up with a lot of surprises, this was a big one."Cameron said the win would change a lot of perceptions about the city."I think that in terms of the actual positioning of Calgary on the national and international scene, this a very interesting message," the pollster said. "It sends a message that Calgary has grown up, has become a cosmopolitan urban centre that is really ready to defy the odds."Read more: http://www.cbc.ca/canada/edmonton/story/2010/10/19/calgary-new-mayor-nenshi-background.html#ixzz12rFclZVg
