Evidence tossed at start of papal butler's trial

VATICAN CITY (AP) ? The pope's once-trusted butler went on trial Saturday for allegedly stealing papal documents and passing them off to a journalist in the worst security breach of the Vatican's recent history ? a case that embarrassed the Vatican and may shed some light on the discreet, internal workings of the papal household.

In its first hearing in the case, the three-judge tribunal threw out some evidence gathered during the investigation of butler Paolo Gabriele, who is charged with aggravated theft. It also decided to separate Gabriele's trial from that of his co-defendant, a computer expert charged with aiding and abetting the crime.

Gabriele is accused of taking the pope's correspondences, photocopying the documents and handing them off to Italian journalist Gianluigi Nuzzi, whose book "His Holiness: The secret papers of Pope Benedict XVI," was published to great fanfare in May.

Nuzzi has said his source, code-named "Maria" in the book, wanted to shed light on the secrets of the church that were damaging it. Taken as a whole, the documents seem aimed primarily at discrediting Cardinal Tarcisio Bertone, the Vatican secretary of state and Benedict's longtime trusted deputy. Bertone, 77, a canon lawyer and soccer enthusiast, has frequently been criticized for perceived shortcomings in running the Vatican.

On Saturday, the court also announced that the pope's personal secretary, Monsignor Georg Gaenswein, had been called as a witness, testimony that is sure to attract attention given that Gaenswein rarely speaks in public much less about details of the intimate, papal family of which Gabriele formed part.

Other witnesses include one of the four consecrated women who take care of the pope's apartment, a monsignor in the Vatican secretary of state, the No. 2 Swiss Guard commander and the head of the Vatican police force.

Judge Giuseppe Dalla Torre set the next hearing for Tuesday, when Gabriele will be questioned. He said he thought the whole trial could be wrapped up in four more hearings.

Gabriele faces up to four years in prison if he is convicted. He has already confessed, saying he leaked the documents to shed light on what he called the "evil and corruption" in the church, and asked to be pardoned by the pope.

Gabriele, a 46-year-old father of three, appeared calm but tense during the 2 hour, 15 minute hearing, frequently crossing his hands or clasping them in his lap. He wore a light gray suit and tie.

He sat alone on a bench on one side of the intimate, austere courtroom following the proceedings impassively. During a break in the hearing, he chatted with his attorney, Cristiana Arru, and greeted journalists with a nod and a smile as he entered and exited.

Arru raised a series of objections at the start of the hearing, only some of which were accepted by the court. One concerned two jailhouse conversations Gabriele had with the head of the Vatican police force without his lawyers present. The judges declared the conversations were inadmissible. The content of the conversations isn't public.

Arru also sought access to the report of a commission of cardinals appointed by the pope to investigate the leaks alongside Vatican magistrates. The court denied the request.

Neither Gabriele's wife nor any of his three children attended the hearing. Space for the public was limited; eight of the 18 seats were taken up by the journalists who followed the proceedings and then briefed the rest of the Vatican press corps afterwards.

Security was relaxed, with the guards at the tribunal entrance mostly concerned that none of the press or public brought in any recording devices: They even checked pens to make sure they couldn't record, and sequestered cell phones into safe boxes. No television or still cameras were allowed, except for Vatican media which filmed the first moments at the start of the hearing.

Eight members of the Vatican gendarmerie who were called as witnesses were in the courtroom as well, but left during the break after the judges made clear they wouldn't be called to testify Saturday. Domenico Giani, the pope's personal bodyguard and the head of the Vatican police force, remained for the duration of the hearing.

Given the content of the leaks and the Vatican's penchant for secrecy, the fact that the trial was open to the public and media may have struck some as unusual. In fact, such trials in the Vatican's civil and penal tribunal are routinely public. They just don't happen very often or attract much attention. The Vatican's ecclesial courts on the other hand, which handle marriage annulments, clerical sex abuse cases and other matters of church law, remain firmly off-limits to outsiders.

In some ways, the willingness of the Vatican to proceed with the trial at all is an indication of its efforts to show new transparency in its inner workings. Benedict could have pardoned Gabriele as soon as he was arrested or charged, precluding any trial from getting off the ground. Instead he allowed the trial to go ahead, evidence of the "courage" the Vatican is showing to be more transparent, Vatican spokesman the Rev. Federico Lombardi has said.

He called such transparency unprecedented for the Vatican and likened it to the Holy See's recent decision to submit its financial institutions to outside scrutiny by the Council of Europe's Moneyval committee.

Graduate in Chinese and Economics Chooses Lithuania

Even though Domas Girtavi?ius, a young perspective specialist fluent in three languages and has the possibility to choose any country in which to live and work, he moved back to Lithuania after graduating in Economics and Chinese Language in USA as he decided to contribute to his homeland, Sigita Limontait? wrote in ?Tiesa?.

He has graduated from Middlebury College in Economics and Chinese Language. Moreover, as a part of his studies in Middlebury College, it was mandatory for him to choose one of the University?s branches or partners in a foreign country. As Domas explains, it was only natural for him to choose to spend a semester in China, as he was already studying the language.

When asked why the recent graduate decided not to pursue a career in USA or China, he explained that his decision was based on the philosophy of choosing a first job position where h could get the highest number of opportunities and a place to grow. As he noted, Lithuania is a great place to work and improve for those who graduated from really good universities. For instance, those working in a branch of any of the Big 4 financial enterprises in Lithuania are coping during their first year with some of the tasks that their colleagues in USA experience only in their second or third year.

Even though the Chinese language is known to be extremely complicated and difficult, Domas had studied it for four years, and as he noted, Middlebury College in USA is known for its extremely intense Chinese language programs. All of the students sign a contract that obliges them not to speak any other language except for the one they are studying during their summer vacations and their studies abroad. Because of this method students become highly fluent in a very short period of time.

D.Girtavi?ius has recently started to work in ?Invest Lithuania?, where most of his work time is devoted to attractinginvestments from China.

According to D.Girtavi?ius, Lithuania is attractive to foreign investors due to several reasons: 1 the logistically convenient geographical placement of Lithuania with easy links to Scandinavia, Western Europe or Russia?s markets, 2 efficiently expanded IT? infrastructure, and 3 most importantly, the staff. His company emphasizes that Lithuania boasts that it has a convenient infrastructure, a number of highly trained and talented as well as affordable specialists, most of whom are fluent in at least two languages and possess good knowledge of communication technologies. In the global market, Lithuania is seen as a country from which one would buy business? process services, due to the convenience for the foreign companies to reach a variety of global markets. Moreover, Lithuania is one of the leaders in the internet speed and mobile technologies usage. Great conditions for manufacturing projects are provided by the free economic zone as well as the industrial estates.

D. Girtavi?ius also admits that he sees Lithuania as a place with many opportunities for the young, innovative and educated in many different career paths. Many young specialists are getting chances here which to most would be unreachable in bigger markets.

Reflecting on his studies, Domas says that the best universities in USA are famous for their workload and the individual attention given to the students. To study one has to learn discipline and hard work. However, the whole environment and atmosphere is highly motivating; for example, when one can find at least half of his course mates in the library studying at 11 in the evening and when a professor stops by and gives suggestions for the article which one is currently working on.

When asked if he is planning on moving soon, the young graduate answers that the world is too unpredictable and that it is natural for professionals working in international markets or speaking several languages to travel a lot or be placed in a foreign country. However, for the time being,? he claims to be happy and wants to work here. He also admits that even though the circumstances might change at some point, he intends to keep ties to Lithuania in the future and spend at least some of his time in the homeland.

Protestors hold a banner reading "you don't represent us" during a demonstration against austerity measures announced by the Spanish government in Madrid, Spain, Tuesday, Sept. 25, 2012. Spain's Parliament has taken on the appearance of a heavily guarded fortress with dozens of police blocking access from every possible angle, hours ahead of a protest against the conservative government's handling of the economic crisis. The demonstration, organized behind the slogan 'Occupy Congress,' is expected to draw thousands of people who call for Parliament to be dissolved and fresh elections held, claiming the government's austerity measures show the ruling Popular Party misled voters to get elected last November. (AP Photo/Andres Kudacki)

(AP) ? Thousands of Portuguese enduring deep economic pain from austerity cuts took to the streets Saturday in protest, and Spanish demonstrators outraged over similar measures were preparing to approach parliament for the third time this week to vent their anger against tax hikes, government spending cuts and the highest unemployment rate among the 17 nations that use the euro currency.

In Lisbon, retired banker Antonio Trinidade said the budget cuts Portugal is locked into in return for the nation's ?78 billion ($101 billion) bailout are making the country's economy the worst he has seen in his lifetime. His pension has been cut, and he said countless young Portuguese are increasingly heading abroad because they can't make a living at home.

"The government and the troika controlling what we do because of the bailout just want to cut more and more and rob from us," Trinidade said, referring to the troika of creditors ?the European Commission, the European Central Bank and the International Monetary Fund. "The young don't have any future, and the country is on the edge of an abyss. I'm getting toward the end of my life, but these people in their 20s or 30s don't have jobs, or a future."

In Spain, marchers were preparing to again head toward parliament, where Prime Minister Mariano Rajoy has an absolute majority and has pushed through waves of austerity measures over the last nine months ? trying to prevent Spain from being forced into the same kind of bailout taken by Portugal, Ireland and Greece.

The protests near Spain's parliament turned violent Tuesday and Wednesday nights when protesters clashed with riot police, who barricaded entry to the streets surrounding government buildings. Dozens of people were arrested and injured.

On Friday, Rajoy's administration presented a 2013 draft budget that will cut overall spending by ?40 billion ($51.7 billion), freezing the salaries of public workers, cutting spending for unemployment benefits and even reducing spending for Spain's royal family next year by 4 percent.

Investors worried about Spain's economic viability have forced up the interest rate they are willing to pay to buy Spanish bonds. The country's banks hurting from a property boom that went bust are set to get help soon from a ?100 billion ($129 billion) financial lifeline from the eurozone, and Rajoy is pondering whether to ask for help from the ECB to buy Spanish bonds.

Finance Minister Cristobal Montoro said Saturday that the budget cuts for next year were necessary to ease market tensions and try to bring down high interest rates Spain must pay to get investors to buy its bonds.

Prop. 33 (car insurance premiums): Yes - The Orange County Register

When it comes to pricing insurance, it's best to match risk and reward, and the only way to match risk with reward is by using information about past behavior. Insurance markets fail when that information is not forthcoming. Or when it is deliberately withheld, as it currently is in California, thanks to Proposition 103, passed in 1988.

Under California law, drivers who follow the rules and carry car insurance earn a discount after five years of continuous coverage. But if they decide to switch insurance carriers, or drop coverage because of illness or because they were serving in the military, they lose that discount.

Prop. 33 on the Nov. 6 ballot allows consumers to keep their "continuous-driver" discount if they switch insurers. Drivers also would keep a persistency discount if their coverage lapses because of military service or unemployment of at least 18 months.

In a perfect world, insurers would be able to create whatever rating models they wished and would be free to compete for customers. California's Insurance Commission, however, allows insurers to write policies based solely on 18 criteria. Prop. 33 would add another criteria ? continuous driver history ? and that would likely go a long way to lowering car insurance rates, as has been found in the 48 other states that allow continuous-driver discounts.

The reason a continuous-driver discount winds up reducing, rather than boosting, insurance prices is evident when you consider two hypothetical drivers. The first driver's insurance history is transparent to every insurer, including competitors, while the second driver has no checkable history. Which driver would be riskier for to an insurer?

The answer to that question is obvious, but it isn't so obvious to state officials or activists. Though the state requires the purchase of automobile insurance, and although the state already has an insurance program for drivers unable to afford insurance, the poor (or infrequent drivers) sometimes allow coverage to lapse, which imposes that cost on everyone, which, of course, means higher premiums. Some 85 percent of Californians carry auto insurance; some 15 percent do not.

This lack of insurance is, in large measure, due to the higher costs imposed on consumers by the regulation of the insurance industry by self-styled "consumer watchdog" advocates, like Harvey Rosenfield, a prot?g? of Ralph Nader and former lobbyist for Nader's Congress Watch. In 1988, Mr. Rosenfield authored Prop. 103, which lowered auto insurance rates and required rate increases be approved by the state Department of Insurance.

Mr. Rosenfield has engaged in a dubious campaign to stop Prop. 33, much as he did in 1988 when he notably attempted to deliver a truckload of cow manure to State Farm Insurance Co.'s Los Angeles headquarters because "that's how consumers felt" about their insurance rates. He calls George Joseph, the billionaire founder of Mercury Insurance Group and funder of Prop. 33, a "Grinch" who will steal "Christmas."

Mr. Rosenfield's group attacked Prop. 33's backers for mentioning how it is supported by many military personnel, even though his group did the same thing during a previous initiative campaign.

Mr. Rosenfield said in a 2011 story for the Los Angeles Times that he was preparing a new ballot initiative to regulate health insurance rates in California.

As Rosenfield once told the Los Angeles Times, "You can't make some compromises when you are a consumer advocate." Insurance requires a balanced approach, divorced from politics. We recommend a Yes vote on Prop. 33.

Compare Forex Trading plus Stock Trading

The forex (foreign currency exchange) marketplace is the biggest plus many fluid financial marketplace inside the planet. The forex marketplace unlike stock markets is an over-the-counter marketplace without central exchange plus clearing home where orders are paired.

Traditionally forex currency trading has not been common with retail traders/investors (traders takes less expression positions than investors) considering forex marketplace was just opened to Hedge Funds plus wasn?t accessible to retail traders like you. Only in latest years which forex currency trading is opened to retail traders. Comparatively stock trading has been about for much longer for retail investors. Recent advancement inside computer plus trading technologies has enabled low commission plus simple access to retail traders to trade stock or foreign currency exchange from virtually anywhere inside the globe with web access. Simple access plus low commission has greatly improved the odds of winning for retail traders, both inside stocks plus forex. Which of the 2 is a greater choice for a trader? The comparisons of retail stock trading plus retail forex currency trading are because follows;

Nature of the Instrument
The nature of the products being purchased plus available between forex currency trading plus stocks trading are different. In stocks trading, a trader is obtaining or marketing a share inside a particular firm inside a nation. There are numerous different stock markets inside the globe. Many factors determine the rise or fall of the stock cost. Refer to my post inside beneath stock section to obtain more info regarding the factors which affect stock costs. Forex trading involves ordering or marketing of currency pairs. In a transaction, a trader purchases a currency from 1 nation, plus sells the currency from another nation. So the expression ?exchange?. The trader is hoping which the worth of the currency which he purchases usually rise with regard to the worth of the currency which he sells. In essence, a forex trader is betting found on the financial prospect (or at minimum her financial policy) of 1 nation against another nation.
Market Size & Liquidity
Forex marketplace is the biggest marketplace inside the planet. With daily purchases of over US$ 4 trillion, it dwarfs the stock markets. While there are thousands of different stocks inside the stock markets, there are just a some currency pairs inside the forex marketplace. So, forex currency trading is less inclined to cost manipulation by big players than stock trading. Huge marketplace amount furthermore signifies which the currency pairs enjoy better liquidity than stocks. A forex trader will enter plus leave the marketplace conveniently. Stocks comparatively is less fluid, a trader can discover issue exiting the marketplace particularly throughout main bad information. This really is worse particularly for small-cap stocks. Additionally due to its big liquidity of forex marketplace, forex traders will enjoy greater cost spread than stock traders.
Trading Hours & Its Disadvantage to Retail Stock Traders
Forex marketplace opens 24-hour when US stock marketplace opens daily from 930am EST to 4pm EST. This signifies which Forex traders can pick to trade any hours when stock traders are limited to 930am EST to 4pm EST. One noticeable drawback of retail stock traders is the fact that the stock markets are just opened to marketplace machines throughout pre-market hours (8:30am ? 9:20am EST) plus post-market hours (4:30pm ? 6:30pm EST). And it?s throughout these pre-market plus post-markets hours that many businesses release the earnings results which might have perfect impact found on the stock costs. This means which the retails traders (various of us) may just observe the cost rise or drop throughout these hours. Besides, stop purchase wouldn?t be honored throughout this occasions. The forex traders never suffer this immense downside. Additionally, a stock trader will supplement his/her trading with forex currency trading outside the stock trading hours.
Affordability
In purchase to trade stocks, a trader must have very a noticeable amount of capital inside his account, at smallest a some tens of thousands on the whole. However, a forex trader could commence trading with an account of just a some hundreds $ . This really is considering forex currency trading enables high leverage. A forex trader might obtain greater transaction compared to stock marketplace. Many forex brokers provides 100:1, 200:1 or 400:1. A leverage of 100:1 signifies a US$ 1k inside account may obtain a 100 instances transaction value at US$ 100k. There is not a interest charge for the leveraged cash. Stock trading commonly enables not over 2 occasions leverage inside margin trading. There are interest charges associated with margin trading.
Data Transparency & Analysis Overload
There are thousands of different stocks inside different industries. trader must analysis countless stocks plus picks the greatest limited to trade. There are numerous factors which affect the stock costs. There are more factors which will affects stock cost than foreign currency exchange rates. The forex traders consequently will focus about some currency pairs to trade. On top of which, many information or information affecting currency exchange rate are announced officially, scheduled plus inside a clear way. Retail forex traders consequently have greater possibilities of achievement than retail stock traders.
Bear/Bull Stock Market Conditions
Forex traders will trade inside both method purchasing or marketing currency pairs without any restrictions. But, stock traders have more constraints to trade plus profit inside bear marketplace condition. There are more restrictions plus bills associated with stock brief marketing. In a bull marketplace whenever the economy is doing effectively, stock traders have a significant chance of profitability when they purchase stock initially then market it later. Savvy forex traders still, may work in every marketplace conditions.
Trending Nature of Currency
Major currencies are influenced by nationwide financial policies plus macro styles This nationwide financial policies plus macro styles tend to last lengthy inside a certain way, either inside financial expansionary (rate cutting) or financial contractionary cycle (rate camping cycle). Stock costs though tend to fluctuate up plus down due to numerous factors, numerous of these factors are micro plus certain to the stocks. Therefore forex traders will better exploit the styles inside foreign currency markets which stock traders inside stock markets.
Regulation
Generally, many main stock markets are better regulated than forex markets. So, traders have to be aware of the difference to stock markets. Fortunately, there are though numerous reputable forex brokers inside the marketplace. With prudence plus right analysis, it is actually not difficult to obtain a right reliable forex brokers.

Based found on the above limited points, forex currency trading appears to be a greater trading way than stock trading, particularly throughout these uncertainties inside the worldwide economy. During bull marketplace condition, stock trading can be a worthwhile alternative. A stock trader must certainly really consider supplementing their trading with forex currency trading. Forex trading allows a stock trader to exploit any chance arises throughout non stock trading hours, by trading inside forex currency trading. Forex trading might equally allow the stock traders to know a far more complete big pic of planet economies operations plus further enhance their stock trading abilities.

Mr. David K Smith is a pro stock plus forex trader. His has been very lucrative inside stock, choices plus forex currency trading inside a some main worldwide stock markets plus forex marketplace. He shares a great deal of insights inside his site http://www.i1also.com.

Google Maps Street View will be available via Mobile Safari in two weeks

According to many of our readers, if Apple's iOS 6 Maps software isn't suitably filling in for the old Google-powered Maps then the quickest workaround is simply using Google Maps as a web app. While we'll likely be waiting some time to find out if a standalone replacement from Google really is in the cards, The New York Times' David Pogue mentions -- while bemoaning some navigation related mishaps in the new app -- Street View imagery will be accessible that way "in two weeks." Hopefully users will find that makes the wait easier, but at least they're not making you carry around one of those backpacks to make it all work.

Arup SenGupta gives plenary lecture at ... - Lehigh University News

Arup K. SenGupta,?the P.C. Rossin Professor in the department of civil and environmental engineering and the department of chemical engineering, delivered the inaugural plenary lecture at the International Ion Exchange Meeting (IEX?12)?held earlier this month at Cambridge University in the United Kingdom.

SenGupta?s lecture, titled ?From the Donnan Membrane Principle to Sustainable Engineering Processes and Materials: A Tribute to Frederick Donnan,? was based on a paper he co-authored with Michael German, a Ph.D. candidate in environmental engineering at Lehigh.

Named for the Irish-English physical chemist Frederick G. Donnan (1870-1956), the century-old Donnan principle refers to the failure of charged particles to distribute evenly across the two sides of a nearby semi-permeable membrane.

SenGupta has applied the principle extensively?to develop new hybrid materials and processes. His two publications in the emerging area of hybrid ion exchange have been cited more than 300 times.

The hybrid anion exchanger (HAIX) material developed and patented by SenGupta?s group is now being used in six countries to remove trace amounts of arsenic and other contaminants from water.

The material was recently tested for a treatment process to remove radioisotopes from wastewaters generated during the cooling of the Fukushima nuclear reactors that were damaged by the tsunami that hit Japan in 2011. Three separate treatment systems, each designed to process 250 m3 of wastes per day, are undergoing commissioning and should be operational later this year.

SenGupta holds eight U.S. patents with his students for inventions in environmental processes and materials.

The International Ion Exchange Meeting, which is devoted to the specialty area of ion exchange science and technology, has been held every four years since the early 1950s under the auspices of the Society of Chemical Industry (SCI) in the UK. More than 150 delegates from 25 countries attended IEX?12 this year at Cambridge?s Queens? College.

From 1996 to 2006, SenGupta served as editor of Reactive and Functionalized Polymers, a journal published by Elsevier. For advancing the field of ion exchange and developing sustainable environmental processes, he has received awards from the American Chemical Society (ACS), the American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE), the American Institute of Chemical Engineers (AIChE) and other professional groups.

He served as chair of the department of civil and environmental engineering from 1998 to 2005.
