No prosecution for UK minor who called Scientology a ‘cult’

The Crown Prosecution Service (CPS) of the government of the United Kingdom told the City of London Police on Friday that there will be no prosecution for a 15-year-old boy who called Scientology a “cult” at a May 10 peaceful protest. The City of London Police had previously confiscated the boy’s protest placard and gave him a court summons at the demonstration, which took place near St Paul’s Cathedral at the Church of Scientology‘s London headquarters on Queen Victoria Street. The boy’s poster read: “Scientology is not a religion, it is a dangerous cult”. The human rights organization Liberty has come out strongly against the City of London Police for their actions at the protest, and said they are pursuing an inquiry into the police force for what they say is a troubling freedom of speech issue.
Individuals from the group Anonymous have held monthly international protests against the Church of Scientology since February, as part of the anti-Scientology movement Project Chanology. The Project Chanology movement began when the Church of Scientology attempted to get a leaked Scientology promotional video featuring Tom Cruise removed from websites YouTube and Gawker.com.
Members of Anonymous were motivated by the actions of the Church of Scientology, and bombarded Scientology websites and were successful in taking some of them down. Anonymous later changed tactics towards legal measures, and held international protests against Scientology on February 10, March 15, April 12, and most recently May 10.

I am going to fight this and not take it down because I believe in freedom of speech. |

City of London Police approached the 15-year-old boy at the May 10 protest and cited section five of the Public Order Act 1986, which deals with “harassment, alarm or distress“. In response, the boy cited a 1984 judgment given by Mr. Justice Latey in the Family Division of the High Court of Justice of Her Majesty’s Courts of Justice of England and Wales, in which Latey called Scientology a “cult” and said it was “corrupt, sinister and dangerous”. In the actual 1984 judgment made by Judge Latey, he stated: “Scientology is both immoral and socially obnoxious. […] In my judgement it is corrupt, sinister and dangerous. […] It is dangerous because it is out to capture people, especially children and impressionable young people, and indoctrinate and brainwash them so that they become the unquestioning captives and tools of the cult, withdrawn from ordinary thought, living and relationships with others.” The boy told fellow protesters he was not going to take the sign down, saying: “If I don’t take the word ‘cult’ down, here [holding up his sign], I will be either, I think, most likely arrested or [given] a summons. I am going to fight this and not take it down because I believe in freedom of speech, besides which I’m only fifteen.”

… it is not abusive or insulting and there is no offensiveness, as opposed to criticism, neither in the idea expressed nor in the mode of expression. No action will be taken against the individual. |

When the boy refused to take his sign down, City of London Police removed it, cited him with a court summons and informed him that the matter would be referred to the Crown Prosecution Service. The boy was the only protester who did not comply with the police requests to remove signs which referred to Scientology as a “cult”. According to The Guardian, a CPS spokesman stated Friday that: “In consultation with the City of London police, we were asked whether the sign, which read ‘Scientology is not a religion it is a dangerous cult’, was abusive or insulting. Our advice is that it is not abusive or insulting and there is no offensiveness, as opposed to criticism, neither in the idea expressed nor in the mode of expression. No action will be taken against the individual.”
“The CPS review of the case includes advice on what action or behaviour at a demonstration might be considered to be threatening, abusive or insulting. The force’s policing of future demonstrations will reflect this advice,” said a spokeswoman for the City of London Police in a statement in The Guardian.
The 15-year-old boy’s mother called the CPS decision a “victory for free speech”, saying: “We’re all incredibly proud of him. We advised him to take the placard down when we realised what was happening but he said ‘No, it’s my opinion and I have a right to express it’.”
The incident has generated significant interest on the Internet, from civil rights groups and anti-cult groups, and in the press. Shami Chakrabarti, director of Liberty, and Ian Haworth of the United Kingdom-based Cult Information Centre were highly critical of the actions of the City of London Police. George Pitcher of The Daily Telegraph called the actions of the City of London Police “a mockery of the law”. Other publications also criticized the actions of the police, compared the boy to past civil rights protesters, and analyzed how the characterization of “cult” applied to Scientology. The Guardian reported that human rights activists “were outraged” when reports of the actions of the City of London Police at the protest surfaced this week. Marina Hyde wrote in a comment piece in The Guardian that the City of London Police should spend a little less time “reaching for the collar of free-speaking children”. An article in The Guardian about the boy’s court summons hit the front page of the website Slashdot on Wednesday, and an article about the statement by CPS hit the site’s front page on Friday. The anti-Scientology website Enturbulation.org devoted its front page to the incident on Saturday.

The police may have ended their inquiries into this tawdry incident but rest assured that Liberty’s inquiry will continue. |

BBC News reported that attorneys for Liberty represented the 15-year-old boy to the CPS. In media statements Friday, Liberty said it would continue its inquiry into the actions of the City of London Police. “The police may have ended their inquiries into this tawdry incident but rest assured that Liberty’s inquiry will continue. Democracy is all about clashing ideas and the police should protect peaceful protest, not stifle it,” said James Welch, legal director at Liberty. “Reason has prevailed in the case of the anti-Scientology protester”, wrote Welch in a comment piece in The Observer. According to The Press Association, Liberty’s inquiry may result in actions taken against the City of London Police.
The City of London Police has faced controversy in the past for its close association with the Church of Scientology. When the City of London Scientology building opened in 2006, City of London Chief Superintendent Kevin Hurley praised Scientology in an appearance as guest speaker at the building’s opening ceremony. Ken Stewart, another of the City of London’s chief superintendents, has also appeared in a video praising Scientology. According to The Guardian over 20 officers for the City of London Police have accepted gifts from the Church of Scientology including tickets to film premieres, lunches and concerts at police premises.
Unlike the City of London Police, the Metropolitan Police Service (the territorial police force responsible for Greater London excluding the City of London) has not raised an issue with protesters using placards with similar wording at protests against Scientology, according to The Guardian and Londonist.
Each of the Project Chanology international protests against Scientology has had a theme: the February protest called attention to the birthday of Lisa McPherson, who died under controversial circumstances while under the care of Scientology, the March protest was arranged to take place two days after Scientology founder L. Ron Hubbard‘s birthday, the April protest highlighted the Church of Scientology’s disconnection policy, and the May protest highlighted the Scientology practice of “Fair Game” and took place one day after the anniversary of the publication of Hubbard’s book Dianetics: The Modern Science of Mental Health. Another international protest is planned for June 14, and will highlight the Church of Scientology’s elite “Sea Organization” or “Sea Org”.

England: Multi-storey carpark in Liverpool gutted by fire, 1,300 vehicles destroyed
October 3rd, 2021 | Uncategorized |
Thursday, January 4, 2018
A fire on Sunday night in the seven-storey carpark for the Echo Arena in Liverpool, England destroyed almost all the vehicles parked inside and led to cancellation of the final evening of the Liverpool International Horse Show and evacuation of nearby blocks of flats. The blaze reportedly started with a parked Range Rover Discovery.
Investigators with the fire brigade stated that they believe the fire began with an accidental engine fire in the Range Rover at about 4.30 pm. The first call was made at 4.42 and firefighters arrived eight minutes after that. Ultimately twelve engines and 85 firefighters were involved in combatting the blaze. Aerial appliances were used and also three high-volume pumps. Fed by the fuel in vehicles parked inside, the temperature of the fire in the carpark is believed to have reached as high as 1,000°C. It was too hot to be extinguished with water from hydrants, so a high-volume pump was used to draw water from the River Mersey, and two more were brought from other fire brigades in the region.
The carpark has seven storeys and a capacity of 1,600 vehicles, and approximately 1,300 were parked in it when the fire broke out. According to Dan Stephens, chief fire officer for Merseyside Fire and Rescue Service, almost all of them were destroyed, with the exception of a few parked on the top level and at corners. “With these very high temperatures, you were never going to put the fire out without the whole building taking hold. The speed at which the fire spreads means you simply aren’t going to put it out,” said Stephens.
The carpark itself was severely damaged; according to Joe Anderson, the mayor of Liverpool. It is not in danger of collapsing but will have to be demolished, which will be difficult with the many burned-out cars still inside it, Anderson told the BBC.
According to Stephens, there were no serious injuries: one woman injured her hand, and two people were treated for smoke inhalation. A spokesman for the Echo Arena also stated that all animals were safe. All horses were successfully evacuated from the carpark and then removed from the stables after smoke spread to them. Six dogs were also rescued unharmed, two on a lower level in the early stages of the fire and four that had been left in a car on the top level, freed by firefighters on Monday after the fire was put out.
The final evening of the four-day Liverpool International Horse Show had been scheduled to begin at 7.30, and had to be cancelled. Many attendees were stranded in the city on New Year’s Eve night. Merseyside police directed people to the Pullman Hotel, where Red Cross assistance was available, and the Liverpool City Council set up an assistance centre at the Lifestyles Gym. A spokesman for the Association of British Insurers has said that insurance companies will “move very quickly” to reimburse owners whose vehicles were destroyed.
Nearby blocks of flats were evacuated because of the smoke. Eyewitnesses reported hearing what they at first thought were firecrackers, then “multiple explosions”, “bangs and popping”, “the bangs of car windows exploding”. People reported leaving everything in their cars, including their cellphones, and running for their lives.
Mayor Anderson tweeted that cuts to fire services over the last two years made it significantly harder to fight the fire and might have caused it not to be controllable. He also suggested that fire safety in multi-storey carparks had not been sufficiently considered and that installing sprinklers in them might help stop future fires before they become unmanageable, in a letter to Nick Hurd, a member of Parliament.

Five Signs Of The Creation Of Cosmetic Plastic Surgery
by
Patricia Strasser
There is no obvious response or file as to who is really liable for the creation of plastic surgery; nonetheless, cosmetic plastic surgery was already utilized in India as early as 500 BC and proof has been discovered of it in the Byzantine time, cosmetic surgery processes were also performed by the Romans and old Egyptians, it was in the year 1400s that cosmetic surgery emerged in Europe, western medical doctors discovered plastic surgery processes from India, and lots of syphilis-infected sufferers and also soldiers from World Wars I and II benefitted from cosmetic plastic surgery.
[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C746VSnX4Qs[/youtube]
Cosmetic surgery is among the most regularly performed medical procedures on earth. Around 11 million cosmetic plastic surgery processes are carried out in the USA yearly. Cosmetic Surgery might either be surgical or non-surgical, as well as for aesthetic or medical purposes. There\’s no particular person credited with actually creating plastic surgery but you could trace back it\’s history to other portions of the world and much early times. Cosmetic surgery was already practiced in India around 500 BC and evidence of it has also been discovered in the Byzantine age During the earliest centuries of the Hindu civilization, men and women found responsible for doing criminal activity were reprimanded by cutting off their noses. From this practice, a Hindu medical doctor called Susrata designed a technique which could restore noses that were cut off or clipped in battle. The process would significantly improve bodily look even though the process was not very innovative. This method spread so widely that it was evident on Byzantine Emperor Justinian\’s figurines that he had also undergone such a process after a nose amputation around 700 CE. This system later became the enhanced rhinoplasty process. Plastic surgery methods were also conducted by the Romans and ancient Egyptians The Romans as well the early Egyptians were among the earliest civilizations to undertake simple cosmetic surgery processes. During the 1st century BC, ears which were damaged in war were commonly repaired. It was around 1400s that plastic cosmetic surgery appeared in European countries The Brancas, a family group of Sicilian plastic surgeons, developed new suturing processes to fix ear and also lip wounds. Gaspare Tagliacozzi, a surgeon in Bologna, later experimented with skin grafting by slicing a portion of epidermis from one area of the human body and then affixing it to another. However, it was not performed regularly only until Sir Astley Cooper executed the very first effective skin grafting procedure in 1817. Western health professionals discovered plastic surgery processes from India Many western medical doctors, like doctor Joseph Constantine Carpue, traveled to India to learn cosmetic surgery methods including rhinoplasty. Carpue invested 20 years in India studying these approaches. It was not until 1815 that he returned to the western world and efficiently executed the first major cosmetic surgery operation. Many syphilis-infected patients and also soldiers from World Wars I and II benefitted from plastic cosmetic surgery With the spread of new reconstructive surgical treatment techniques as well as innovation in medicine, a lot of people with syphilis also benefitted from cosmetic surgery during the 18th century. Because losing one\’s nose is one of the debilitating effects of the disease, many sufferers decided to undertake rhinoplasty even without the use of any pain-killer only to repair one\’s face. World Wars I and II brought thousands of wounded soldiers experiencing burns and amputated areas of the body. Although approaches to cosmetic surgery have advanced over the years, these kinds of events drove doctors further in producing innovative approaches for cosmetic plastic surgery. Well known plastic surgeons during these periods include Archibald McIndoe, Harold Gillies and also Vilrav Blair. The invention of cosmetic surgery supports the importance of one\’s features and how your appearance affects your confidence.

A Canadian government employee of Environment Canada was arrested Wednesday for criminal breach of trust with respect to a leak of the Conservative government’s green plan days before it was due to be made public.
The Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP) arrested the unidentified male employee following a complaint from Environment Canada’s security department. The department alleges that a secret draft copy of the government’s regulatory framework, Climate Change Section of the Eco-Action Plan, had been leaked to the media prior to being released officially to the public.
“An employee who violates the terms of their workplace security clearance, including the release of secret documents, may be subjected to legal consequences, including criminal charges,” said Superintendent Stan Burke, officer in charge of the RCMP’s financial integrity division. There was also concern that if the details were leaked, securities laws could be compromised if stock trades were made based on privileged information.
Environment Minister John Baird was forced to reveal details of the government’s climate change plan on April 24, in an opinion piece published in the media. The move came after a copy of a speech describing the plan was faxed by mistake, a day earlier, to an opposition Liberal party member and environment critic, David McGuinty. It is not clear whether the police action Wednesday was related to that incident.
The RCMP stated that the matter remains under investigation and, as such, no further details would be released at this time.

In an internet-based study published today on the website of the British Medical Journal, Australian investigators tested how well Googling could help to establish a difficult diagnosis. The search results met against their criteria in 15 out of 26 cases.
Previous anecdotes of the use of Google in reaching a difficult diagnosis are presented in the paper. In a case described in the New England Journal of Medicine (NEJM), a physician diagnosed IPEX syndrome after submitting the typical diagnostic clues to the search engine. A patient’s father replied to doctor’s saying that his son had acute subclavian vein thrombosis of unknown origin: “But of course hehas Paget-von Schrötter syndrome.”
Hangwi Tang and Jennifer Hwee Kwoon Ng from the Princess Alexandra Hospital in Brisbane selected clinical cases from the NEJM blind to the correct diagnosis. They selected 3 to 5 rather specific features, searched Google, and selected the 3 disorders from the results that seemed to fit the case best. If one of those was right, Google was said to be “right”.
The scientists admit that an internet search probably works better with specific symptoms rather than with phrases such as “fever ill pain”. Also, the percentage may depend on the operating physician’s knowledge base, and the test was not double-blind.
Experts commented that the internet is not a replacement for doctors, but should be seen as a way of supporting doctors and patients. A spokeswoman for the Patient Association added that “a lot of sites are not credible. There are lots of good sites out there, but we also know that there are many that are not credible.”

Accessories for model scale cars are fun to look at on the Internet if you know little about the hobby of collecting these precisely miniaturized replicas, because it gives you a glimpse into what is actually another world, populated by tiny metal and plastic people, their cars, and their support systems. Life size people obviously great great pleasure out of setting up this mini world.
Scale models are called that because they are ‘made to scale’; in other words, they are as precise in measurement as the original car, tool, or person they ‘model’, or represent in miniature. This is the real fascination of these small images. They look just like the original, can operate just like it if you care enough to build them that way, and can be customized or repaired with parts that actually fit.
There are really great accessories for collections of scaled down cars. To begin with, there are display platforms that simply hold the car, or that can rotate it so you can show off all sides, or that can mirror it with or without the rotation. Glass or clear plastic cases can protect a single car or a collection from dirt, dust, and fingerprints. Display shelves can turn a collection into wall decor, and keep them out of reach while still open to admiration.
[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uri-SJ1y_gM[/youtube]
A showcase can also be a diorama, and they are really neat. There are roadside stands just waiting for you to park your ’50s Chevy out front, or garages with mechanics ready to help, or rustic two-car garages with room for two antique vehicles to back in. There are also plain white buildings you can detail yourself, as anything you think will complement your collection. Body shops, diners, country scenes, and urban environments are all waiting for you to order complete or custom design.
The accessories for the accessories are amazing. You can take a stock scale model and turn it into a customized hot rod, with a Hemi engine and monster tires. The entire process can be detailed, with mini engine lifts, spare batteries, teeny tiny socket sets, ramps, jacks, battery powered lifts, air tanks, tire irons, and more. Really, just picture a real shop, vintage or up to date, and equip your site just the same.
Then there are the people who can do the work, if your imagination is not enough to shrink you down to size. Figurines of mechanics (with name tags and in various postures from kneeling to loosen tire nuts to recumbent to fit the slider), the boss complete with coffee cup and clipboard, onlookers, sheriffs, policeman, families, carhops, farmers, rockers and mods, and others can populate the scenes.
Fun things like vintage gas pumps, Snap-on tools, welding equipment, yard tools (wheelbarrows, shovels, ladders, paint cans), orange road cones, car trailers, Airstream camper pull-behinds, car show trophies – the variety is amazing. You can see why this collecting business can become absorbing. An online search can keep you browsing for hours.
This has not even mentioned the whole arena of slot cars. Here’s where the rubber really meets the road, since the craze for speed leads to customizing both the power base and the race-cars. Newsletters and pdf files tell all about changing stock tires for real racing treads; revving up the engines for competition; changing the suspension or the drive train, the axles or the hubs, the nuts or the bolts! You can put disc brakes in the cars, stops on the track, install bridge timer scorers to judge race results, work from a hand controller or a control tower, get farther away with extension cords, and repair the damage to anything after a spectacular crash.
Trust me. If you have not searched accessories for model scale cars, try it. It’s better than TV.

The Supreme Court in Lausanne, Switzerland has ruled that Texas hold ’em poker is a game of luck, rather than a game of skill. As a result, only casinos can host poker tournaments in Switzerland. Private games with friends, even where money is at stake, are still permitted under the ruling.
Poker tournaments had been growing in popularity in the country, with many events held in hotels and bars. Such venues do not have to pay the 50% tax on profits levied on licensed casinos, nor comply with regulations combating money laundering and gambling addiction. Poker is now categorised alongside roulette and slot machines, which as games of luck can only be played inside casinos. Mathematics, strategy, and bluffing were less important in determining the result than chance, said the judges, overturning a lower court ruling to the opposite effect, and disagreeing with the stance of the country’s Federal Gaming Commission.
Before the ruling, it had been estimated by the Swiss Federation of Casinos that there were about 100 unlicensed poker tournaments every weekend. A Swiss poker website, SwissPokerTour.ch, has described the result as “a black day for all amateur poker players in Switzerland.”

This story has updates See Ghanaians elect new President
Ghana’s electoral commission announced on Wednesday that a run-off election must be held for the Ghanaian presidency. The commission said that the New Patriotic Party (NPP) candidate Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo won 49.13% of the vote, slightly more than the other main candidate, John Atta Mills of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), who obtained 47.92%. However, neither candidate reached the 50% mark needed to declare an outright winner.
Six other candidates were also present on the ballot, stealing enough votes to prevent either candidate from winning half of the vote. The third-party candidate receiving the most votes was businessman Paa Kwesi Nduom representing the Convention People’s Party (CPP), who took 1.3% of the vote.
Out of some 8.6 million votes cast, more than 200,000, or 2.4% of the full total, were rejected, which also may have helped prevent either candidate from reaching 50%. Overall voter turnout in the election was 69.52%.
The presidential candidates are vying to replace the incumbent president John Kufuor, who will be stepping down in January of next year after serving a maximum of two terms.
The electoral commission did not announce results of the simultaneous parliamentary elections, but preliminary results suggest that the NDC obtained no less than 115 seats, out of a total of 230 in the parliament. It is probable that the NPP will lose the large parliamentary majority it had enjoyed.
The run-off election is scheduled for the 28th of December.

A GPS Vehicle Tracking System utilizes a satellite-based Global Positioning System (GPS) to monitor the location of a fleet of vehicles. Individuals can also have GPS tracking installed in their own vehicles. GPS tracking devices report the location of a vehicle to the manager of the vehicle fleet. Minimizing risks to improve safety is an essential benefit of using a GPS fleet tracking system. When a business uses GPS fleet tracking devices in their fleet of vehicles, they are better able to reduce a variety of risks as well as improve the performance of their drivers.
When it comes to maintaining optimum business operations, managers have to make sure products are transported to their customers safely and on-time. They also have to manage payroll expenses and minimize the risk of lawsuits. GPS tracking systems are able to help business manager effectively manage such issues as: driving habits, making unauthorized stops, overtime charging, and more. The manager is able to download data to asses the issues. Risk factors that can be monitored include: miles driven each day, harsh breaking, drive time vs. stop time, rapid acceleration, speeding, after hours driving, engine maintenance and performance, and panic button alerts.
[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GIXsi46LkJo[/youtube]
GPS tracking data can be used to provide information about an accident, optimize drive time by reducing instances of idling, driving the best and fastest routes, and reduce driver’s charging for hours they did not work. Data obtain from the GPS units can provide accurate information regarding such activities. Managers can obtain real-time data to help them understand and improve driving habits. The data will be presented in a report that can be downloaded for easy viewing.
For a fleet manager, vehicle tracking systems are invaluable for improving business as they can view up-to-date and historical data on routes taken, overnight deliveries, or late deliveries so they can make sure everything went according to schedule. These GPS tracking systems will accurately display vehicle positions on a digital street map that is correct to within 15 meters. This is especially helpful if a vehicle is stolen as it can be quickly retrieved by the police.
GPS vehicle tracking is helpful in locating a driver that has been in an accident. Because GPS tracking systems reduces careless driving and can be used to track a stolen vehicle, insurance companies will give discount on insurance. As well, it helps to reduce wear and tear on the vehicle which will reduce repair costs and it will send an alert if there is a problem with the vehicle such as an engine problem. A driver can get the vehicle to an auto repair shop before the situation gets worse and the vehicle breaks down on the side of the road.
Installing fleet tracking systems in a fleet of vehicles not only minimizes risks to improve safety, but it also helps improve business operations and reduce unnecessary expenses. If you want to benefit from the high tech devices to improve your business, then you should consider acquiring a GPS vehicle tracking for your fleet of vehicles.
