House of Hummingbird (2018)
It's 1994, and Seoul is facing massive, rapid changes. The unrest is reflected by a lot of its residents, including Eun-hee, a disaffected teen with a less-than-stellar home and school life. She manages to get by with the help of friends and lovers, that is until they change too, and Eun-hee is forced to grapple with the volatility of it all.
Sensitively told and genuinely captivating, House of Hummingbird is a stellar debut by writer-director Kim Bo-ra. Her command shines in how young actress Park Ji-hoo dynamically portrays Eun-hee, in how the story meanders but never loses footing, and in how each frame displays a quiet gorgeousness as the primary colors of her youth pop against the faded backdrop of urbanized Seoul. The delicate balance of all these elements is sure to evoke a sincere, profound feeling in every viewer.

Losing It
The glory of playing in a great open tournament, I wrote here last month, is that amateur competitors such as your correspondent can stand within a foot of the games of the greatest players, close enough to touch their pieces. At the Gibraltar Tradewise Open in February, I discovered something else: you can get close enough to hear what the grandmasters say to each other at the end of the game—which in some respects is more revealing of their personalities than the moves they play.
Towards the end of the game between the US number one Hikaru Nakamura and his closest rival for the first prize, the 24-year-old Briton David Howell, I didn't have to be that close to understand that the American was not too happy. He was shaking his head, and furiously banging the pieces down when he made his last few moves. Actually, he was not losing. But he had been clearly winning against his much less highly rated opponent, before somehow allowing the Sussex-based grandmaster to establish a technically drawn position. At the end, after snapping "It's a draw" (when one is supposed to offer it to the opponent), Nakamura told Howell that he had been "lucky" (preceded by an adjective not publishable here) and then made a disobliging reference to the Englishman's chess understanding. Howell looked amazed, but otherwise retained his own composure admirably.
On the very next day, another immensely strong grandmaster was similarly confounded by a slightly weaker rival, allowing what seemed a certain win to slip from his grasp. This was the six-times Russian champion Peter Svidler, and his nemesis was the women's world champion, 21-year-old Yifan Hou, from China. I was standing right next to the board when Hou produced an astonishing endgame trick, which abruptly destroyed all Svidler's hopes of victory. The Russian was obviously upset, pulling at his hair as he studied the position with increasing exasperation. But then he did something rather wonderful. He smiled, and said: "Well played. Congratulations. Would you like a draw?"
There could not have been a greater contrast between the two disappointed grandmasters—although I should point out that Nakamura's stepfather and original chess coach, the charming Sri Lankan master Sunil Weeramantry, later went up to Howell to apologise for what had happened. And in a way Nakamura's behaviour was just the flipside of what the chess world finds so attractive about him as a player. He plays the game with an unquenchable desire for victory, never opting for safety and always on the edge: such a style takes an emotional toll.
One shouldn't assume from this that Svidler cared less than Nakamura about failing to win. I spoke to Peter at the dinner marking the tournament's close, and he was still bitterly disappointed, saying that his failure to beat "that girl" had "ruined" the event for him. He is, however, at 38, more than a decade older than Nakamura: and it may be that the American number one will become better at containing his emotions at the board as the years go by.
On the other hand, it seems quite likely that this is more a question of personality than maturity. After all, the former world champion Garry Kasparov never changed his combustible behaviour even as his hair colour went from black to grey: his feelings during the game were always transparent to his opponents, sometimes unpleasantly so. When he won, it was as if the sun itself was emanating from him; but on the rare occasions that he lost, the thunderburst was spectacular.
I recall the former Israeli deputy prime minister Natan Sharansky telling me how, when he and two others had beaten Kasparov in a simultaneous display given by the then world champion in Jerusalem in 1996, the star of the evening's display not only stormed out of the hall but even failed to turn up later for the awards ceremony at which he was the guest of honour.
And perhaps the most-watched of all chess resignations is that of Kasparov similarly storming off the set, after he lost the final decisive game against the IBM computer Deep Blue in 1997—the match which demonstrated that emotionless software had the better of frail humanity.
Still, Kasparov follows in the spirit of his great predecessor, the first Russian world chess champion, Alexander Alekhine, who was generally regarded as a very sore loser. Legend has it that after he was beaten by the six-times British chess champion Frederick Yates in the 1923 Carlsbad tournament, Alekhine went up to his hotel room and demolished every piece of furniture in it. The chess historian Edward Winter has cast forensic doubt on the accuracy of this tale, but it gives me the excuse to publish the greatest chess game ever played by a Yorkshireman, which won the tournament brilliancy prize. This alone would have enraged Alekhine, who would have counted that as his prerogative.
1.d4 Nf6 2.c4 g6 (Yates plays the King's Indian defence—highly unusual back in 1923, though standard today) 3.g3 Bg7 4.Bg2 0-0 5.Nc3 d6 6.Nf3 Nc6 7.d5 Nb8 (Nowadays Na5 is invariably played here, but Yates prefers retreat to decentralisation) 8.e4 Nbd7 9.0-0 a5 10.Be3 Ng4 11.Bd4 Nge5 12.Nxe5 Nxe5 13.c5 dxc5 14.Bxc5 b6 15.Bd4 Ba6 16.Re1 Qd6 17.Bf1 Bxf1 18.Rxf1 c5 19.Bxe5 Qxe5 20.Qb3 Rab8 21.Qb5 f5 22.Rae1 f4 23.Qd7 Rbd8 24.gxf4 Qxf4 25.Qe6+ Kh8 26.f3 Qg5+ 27.Kh1 Rd6 28.Qh3? (28.Qg4 was much better, but Alekhine was still trying to attack) Be5 29.Re2 Rdf6 30.Nd1 Rf4 31.Ne3 Rh4 32.Qe6 Qh5 33.Ng4 (Setting a trap . . . into which Yates deliberately falls) Rxg4! 34.fxg4 Rxf1+ 35.Kg2 (Alekhine's point: Yates must give up his Rook to save his Queen. But from now on the fun is all the Englishman's) Qxh2+ 36.Kxf1 Qh1+ 37.Kf2 Bd4+ 38.Kg3 Qg1+ 39.Kh3 Qf1+ 40.Rg2 Qh1+ 41.Kg3 Qe1+ 42.Kh3 g5!! (No check—but it's a lethal attacking move) 43.Rc2 Qf1+ 44.Kh2 (If 44.Rg2 Qh1+ 45.Kg3 Qe1+ 46.Kh3 Qh4 mate reveals the poison in Yates's 42nd move) Qg1+ 45.Kh3 Qh1+ 46.Kg3 Qd1!! (The second non-checking move in the attack: and this closes the mating net) 47.Rc3 Qg1+ 48.Kh3 Qf1+ 49.Kg3 Bf2+ 50.Kf3 Bg1+ and Alekhine resigned, rather than face the indignity of 51.Kg3 Qf2+ 52.Kh3 Qh2 mate. No wonder he was furious.

This is what happened to me. Please don't drink and drive.
A few people in this world don't take their life for granted. They understand that time is short and you have only a set amount of time on this earth. I am one of those people. It was January 28th, and I was only 25 years old. My mother and I were driving back from getting my renewed driver's license I was hit and it started a mufti-vehicle car crash Pearland police say that the vehicles that were involved one was drinking and driving and the other was myself and my mother Meanwhile, I was sitting in the driver's seat So I went forward and my face hit the window along with my right arm, leaving me unconscious. By the time the paramedics got there, I was little awake and somewhat alert by the force of a gray valvo hitting a telephone pole, Some paramedic told me he was so surprised I was alive and that I have beaten death, But been abused by its wrath.no body should have to go thru actually anyone for that matter, deserves to go through what happened to me. In all honesty, the pain from that crash doesn't end there. After the crash I started to have head pain and found out that I had a leak in my neck and spinal cord which caused me severely pain in my head neck and back the two month later I started throwing up acid from the leak I was put on some medicine which helped a little but my back and spine just got worse and I started to losing mobility until it was hard to walk so I was put on bed rest for about a year and I lost my health insurances so I move to Michigan where I was able to get full Medicaid and now I'm getting back on the right track so I'm finally getting my wheelchair so I can get back to my life and be happy that I can move better and by myself there just on problem the insurance won't pay for the whole wheelchair cost so I need help pay for it.

If you were diagnosed with a terminal disease, would you plan to have your brain frozen in the hopes that one day, either decades or centuries from now, you could have your brain thawed and somehow live again? All over the globe, advances in neuroscience are giving those who hope to one day live again the chance to resurrect themselves — blurring the lines between science and religion in the process.
The vast majority of people on Earth believe that once they pass away, they face everlasting life. Muslims, Jews and Christians, among others, believe in an afterlife. Science, however, is offering people a potential shot at immortality. Modern neuroscience is starting to uncover the connections between individual neurons and how they make up a person's memory and identity. Basically, these neurons are what make you an individual. Some might call them your soul.
This science is advancing by leaps and bounds every week. The world's first head transplant is scheduled to take place in December 2017, a procedure that could be a complete game-changer in the field.
Cryogenics isn't exactly new. People have been freezing themselves or their brains for years, but the science is still in its infancy. Despite this, the field is offering hope for people who hope to one day be resurrected and live a life that was cut short due to illness or accident.
Most of us dream about being reunited with lost loved ones in some form of afterlife. Usually, that afterlife is associated with a religion, but now science might be on the cusp of making that a reality — right here on Earth.
The Obama administration has asked for $4.5 billion to be invested into brain research over the next decade, a huge influx of cash in an area that has too often been overlooked. Scientists are already thinking about the future of neuroscience, and experiments on animals have been largely promising. The question is: How far should they go?
The issue of science versus religion has been an ongoing battle for centuries. The Catholic Church, for example, used to suppress science in an effort to preserve their power. Humans used to think God lived in the sky and Hell resided beneath their feet. We know now that there is no Hell under the ground, and that an ever-expanding universe lies beyond our skies. We know the universe started and that it will end, but still religion has persevered on Earth because we want to believe in something after death.
One might argue that if the advances in neuroscience continue, they really could offer an afterlife — only it would be here on Earth and not in a heavenly realm. What would the various religions around the globe do then? Would science officially become the new God? If there is an afterlife, would preserving yourself by cryogenics ultimately deny you everlasting life or reincarnation, or whatever it is your religion believes? Is death part of an ultimate plan, a grand design by a higher being?
This won't be the last time that science and religion have butted heads. This, however, is the first time where science is entering the realm of preserving our very essence, our makeup, and essentially offering a potential role, if they ever figure it out, of playing God.

In Search of an Intellectual Capital General Theory pp213-226
José María Viedma Martí
© Nov 2003 Volume 1 Issue 2, Editor: Fergal McGrath, pp1 - 226
The development of intellectual capital theory has been guided by the ideas and thoughts of a handful of influential practitioners, including Karl Erik Sveiby (1997), RS Kaplan (Kaplan and Norton, 1992) and Leif Edvinson (Edvinson and Malone, 1997). These pioneers established the basis of the "intellectual capital standard theory". In the present paper the assumptions and principles that support the standard theory (the prevailing paradigm) are discussed. The paper then introduces other models and methodologies as alternatives to the standard theory"such as the "IC Accounting System" (Mouritsen et al., 2001), the "Value Explorer" (Andriessen and Tissen, 2000) and the "Intellectual Capital Benchmarking System (ICBS)" (Viedma, 2001)"and examines the foundations and principles on which the alternative new theory (the 'new paradigm') is based. Finally, the paper attempts to synthesise both of these theoretical approaches with other new views and contributions, and tries to develop the basis for a first general theory of intellectual capital.

Sony Launches PS4 "Bug Bounty" Program
Tatiora
Not exactly PC Gaming, but I'm putting it in this category anyway.
July 1, 2020 12:00:00 PM from Stardock Forums
In a blog post on June 24, 2020, Sony announced that they were launching a PlayStation Bug Bounty program. I think I've been playing too much Animal Crossing lately, because my first thought was along the lines of "Will they pay me 1.5x more than Nook's Cranny for my bugs, too?" Anyway.
Seriously, wake your brain up woman. Wrong kind of bugs.
"We believe that through working with the security research community we can deliver a safer place to play," Geoff Norton, senior director of software engineering at SIE, said in the post. "We have partnered with HackerOne to help run this program, and we are inviting the security research community, gamers, and anyone else to test the security of PlayStation 4 and PlayStation Network. Our bug bounty program has rewards for various issues, including critical issues on PS4. Critical vulnerabilities for PS4 have bounties starting at $50,000."
The exact details of the program are listed on the HackerOne page, but some of the bounties are pretty steep. Finding vulnerabilities in the PlayStation Network could pay out anywhere from $100 for low severity vulnerabilities and all the way up to $3,000 for critical vulnerabilities. PlayStation 4 vulnerabilities will pay out $500 for low severity vulnerabilities, while critical vulnerabilities have bounties starting at $50,000.
This program only applies to PlayStation 4 - the PS1, 2, and Vita are all not included. It seems a little strange to be offering this program now in the wake of the PS5 coming out soon, but I suppose if they can find vulnerabilities in this system, they can better correct and prepare for their next one.
This program was previously only available to private researchers, but is now public. If you're into breaking things and want to make some extra cash while you do so, this might be something worth playing around with. According to the stats on HackerOne, Sony has already paid out $173,900 in bounties. In addition, 102 reports have been submitted, 88 reports have been resolved, and 41 bug-finders have been thanked.
Have you ever encountered a major system bug while playing on a console?

Recently i have come across a very strange issue. I have had someone bring me an iPhone that zaps them when they take a phone call. Now the first thing i can think of is that it is either a static discharge or a battery problem however i'm not really sure what part to replace? The earpiece receiver, battery, logic board or the entire phone itself ?
For the mean time i have given this person the apple technical support number, and although the iPhone is out of warranty, if it is zapping a customer i think they should replace it free of charge....surely.
Id replace the front screen assembly to rule out anything on that end first. Well, not replace but test it with a different one. The ear speaker is easy and cheap enough to replace, that can be done in a few minutes. Is the problem easily replicated? I'd highly doubt Apple would swap it if it is out of warranty, if only though right? haha.


Every other site you go to will say "(Feat. Jay Z)" but in actuality, it's just sampled adlibs and not an actual Jay Z verse (which is fine), so let me just keep it as it is. Jay Elect is Rap's version of Haley's Comet or your neighbour who says they'll return your borrowed item, but occasionally comes back borrowing more before giving your stuff back. Whatever analogy you want to put to it, whenever he drops something, that hope and anticipation of his album coming intensifies for a moment, but hopefully, this is more evidence that something from him is coming soon. I need not say anything more. Just listen & enjoy.

title: Escape Characters
module: 6
---

# Escape Characters

As you may have discovered, HTML specifies that certain are "reserved" or serve a special purpose for browsers. The most obvious conflicts are the greater than and less than characters (`<`, `>`), since these identify tags to browsers in HTML. Any character that may be accidentally interpreted as markup by the browser _should_ be replaced with its escape code equivalent. There are also characters that have no easy "keyboard" equivalent, (such as the copyright symbol - © ) in which case an escape code must be used.

**Question:** So what is a developer to do if they need to write some math (or something else less stressful than including comparison operators in their page)?

**Answer:** Use special codes, known as escape characters, that the browser can use to render the intended character!

This is not a fun process, but one that is necessary since HTML is a language.

NOTE: Also, for those of you who are more "security" minded or wanting to protect yourself and your client from "middle-man" attacks, using escape characters is critical, as evidence by [some discussions around the web](http://wonko.com/post/html-escaping).

## How-To

Escape codes always start with an ampersand (`&`) character followed by the individual code and finished with a semicolon (`;`).

## Character Code

All characters have a numerical, [decimal based](https://www.w3schools.com/charsets/ref_utf_basic_latin.asp) (in addition to hexadecimal), value. In HTML, prepend decimal this value with the ampersand identifier as well as a number sign (`&#`).

Using escape character codes in HTML text is straight forward. Simply replace the character you want with its escape code equivalent in the text.

For example, we could write the word "CAT", by wrapping the individual letter's decimal values (67, 65, and 84) in the escape code values as;

```html
<h1>Where is the CAT ?</h1>
```

Where is the CAT?

## Entity Name

There are two ways of including an escape character in your HTML text. The first, mentioned above, simply utilizes the decimal based character code. This of course can be difficult to remember for the characters you may need.

Characters used often have special codes that are more "human readable", known as "entity names". For example, the less than and greater than characters (`<` & `>`) have entity names 'lt' and 'gt', respectively. To use an entity name, prepend it with the ampersand and appended with a semicolon. So to use `<` & `>` as actual characters in HTML write `<` and `>`.

## Common Escape Character Codes

These are some of the more commonly used escape code characters, along with their entity name and decimal code.

Symbol  | Name  | Entity Name   | Code
:------: | :----: | :-----------: | :----:
© | Copyright | `©` | `©`
® | Registered trademark | `®` | `®`
™ | Trademark | `™` | `™`
< | Less than | `<` | `<`
> | Greater than | `>` | `>`
& | Ampersand | `&` | `&`
" | Quotation mark | `"` | `"`
¢ | Cent | `¢` | `&162;`
£ | Pound | `£` | `&163;`
¤ | Currency | `¤` | `&164;`
¥ | Yen | `¥` | `&165;`
€ | Euro | `€` | `&8364;`

Cross Cultural Earthquake Experience
Supports Diversity of Life
Oceans and Human Connections
Background to the stories: Indigenous oral accounts of this large earthquake and its tsunami were recorded from Vancouver Island to northern California. The account we read was told by late Chief Louis Clamhouse of Huu-ay-aht First Nation, recorded in his language in 1964, and translated. It has minimal changes to it to give a sense of how it was told. The tsunami from the 1700 earthquake crossed the Pacific in about nine hours and was recorded by officials in Japan. We'll also read the Japanese account. We'll look at the modern science story which includes evidence upholding both the Huu-ay-aht and Japanese stories. Each story (traditional, clerical, and scientific) has ways of validating itself as a true story. Facts in the traditional story were verified through specific ancestors, genealogy, memorable rituals, marriages, lives lost, and territories. The Japanese record was validated by sharing records with magistrates and accounting for emergency supplies given to tsunami survivors. The scientific account came from four different lines of peer-reviewed, published evidence and by many scientists working together across disciplines and international boundaries. Read the three stories.
The Modern Science Story follows in very simplified form. The dense, oceanic, tectonic Juan de Fuca plate that normally, sub-ducts (dives) slowly under the less dense, North American plate, was stuck in late 1699. When it suddenly became unstuck in January 1700, it caused a mega-thrust earthquake calculated to be 9.0 on the Richter scale.
Both the Juan de Fuca and Pacific plates arise from molten rock, coming up through the Endeavour Ridge, west of what is now southwestern Canada and the northwestern USA. The Pacific plate moves to the west towards Asia and the Juan de Fuca plate moves eastward about as fast as your fingernails grow. As the Juan de Fuca plate 'slides' under the North American plate, moving batches of small tremors release energy from the subduction (one going under the other).
Today, using GPS technology we can actually measure the land moving east-west in longitude and the up-down movement in elevation. A mega-thrust earthquake results from the tectonic plates getting stuck, the energy of these very large moving masses of rock builds up as does the elevation of the continental plate at its edges where it is literally pushed up. Then something gives and a huge release of energy shakes the land and sea. The shaking starts landslides and underwater slides causing tsunamis: waves with very large heights and speeds. On land, the shaking liquefies wet sandy and silty areas and the quick-release drops land elevations causing seawater flooding, which kills low lying coastal forests and along with tsunamis, deposits marine 'evidence' inland.
Until scientists discovered the "scientific" evidence themselves and confirmed the date with the written Japanese account, traditional First Nations' knowledge was discounted. The 'triangulation' of these stories might be an example of the reconciliation of different ways of knowing. Even though it took science almost 300 years to catch-up with traditional knowledge, science accepts the truth in the oral account at last. Only pieces of the stories are presented here, so if you have time read a fuller account in the book At Risk[1] by John Clague and others as well as the whole Chief Louis Clamhouse story[2] as it was recorded and translated in the book Between Ports Alberni and Renfrew. Names and place-names are Anglicized here. This story belongs to Huu-ay-aht.
Chief Louis Clamhouse "This is the story about the first Anacla or Pachena Bay people. It is said that they were a big group at the time of, him whose name was Hayoqwis'is 'Ten-head-on-beach.' He was the chief; he was of the Pachena Bay tribe; he owned the Pachena Bay country. Their village site (one of several) was Lota'a; they of Lota'a lived there….They were members of the Pachena tribe". …(Chief Louis describes details of a marriage protocol that tested the strength and ability of four sons of the Huu-ay-aht Kix'iin and how one son died trying. The Kix'iin chief had come to Lota'a to perform a "ceremonial woman purchase" involving the eldest daughter of Hayoqwis'is. This was "before the big earthquake before the big flood".)
"They (Huu-ay-aht) got in marriage, the elder daughter. The Pachena Bay chief brought (territory) as dowry for his elder daughter to my grandfather's ancestor…. who now has many descendants. It is them now, who are descendants of the first Pachena Bay people. There is no one left alive (at Lota'a) due to what this land does at times. They had practically no way or time to save themselves. I think it was at nighttime that the land shook. It was a sandy beach. It was floating, it is said, consisting only of sand, … They were at Lota'a and they simply had no time to get hold of canoes, no time to get awake. They sank all at once, were all drowned; not one survived. Only his (Hayoqwis'is) older daughter went to Kix'iin (Huu-ay-aht) as a bride from whom my former grandfather was descended. It is said no one ever knew what happened. I think a big wave smashed into the beach. The Pachena Bay people were lost. Nothing was known of what happened and what became of them. But they on their part who lived at Ma:lts'a:s "House-Up-Against-Hill' (across the bay from Klutus Point), the wave did not reach because they were on high ground. Right against a cliff were the houses on high ground at M'a:lsit "Coldwater-Pool". Because of that, they came out alive. They did not drift out to sea with the others. Everything then drifted away; everything was lost and gone…"
Japanese Official Account: translated from a written record of the aftermath in Kuwagaski, Honshu Island where the tsunami that had no shaking associated, swept along about 1,000 kilometers of shoreline with waves up to several meters high in some locations. (from Clague et al (2006)) "The tsunami arrived at night on January 27, 1700; villagers fled to high ground; the water destroyed thirteen houses and set off fires that burned 20 more; in response, magistrates in nearby Miyako issued rice to 159 persons and sought wood for shelters; they kept other officials informed of their emergency efforts."

Be prepared, not scared. Help prepare for an earthquake/tsunami at home and school. Do you know about taking cover and holding on? Ask your teacher to help your class practice the drill. Do you already have emergency kits or 'go-bags' ready? What are the five items in your 'go bag' for emergencies? If you don't have a go-bag, what are your top five items for the grab-bag that you are going to put together? If you live in a coastal community, take a look at a map with one of your adults and talk through high land escape routes in different locations and where you would meet up with family if you get separated. Get involved with your local community emergency response group and start a youth volunteer section.
The data presented in the ONC graph below (See Figure 1.), was compiled from NEPTUNE data collected after the devastating 2011 mega-thrust earthquake, near Japan. Now, there are even more sensors. West Coast Vancouver Island now has a better forecasting system for tsunamis as part of Ocean Networks Canada's near field detectors which gives valuable time and wave height and speed information.

And so we come to the end of another year. The Covid-19 pandemic has continued to dominate the news, particularly with the very concerning surge of the Omicron variant this month. Many reading this will be separated from loved ones over Christmas. The year has also seen the return to power of the Taliban in Afghanistan after the US withdrawal at the end of August, the resumption of military rule in Myanmar and the ongoing persecution of the Uyghurs by the Chinese government, this year recognised by the House of Commons and the US government (as well as many other bodies and organisations) as constituting a genocide. So, one could say that this year has rivalled last year for infamy.
And yet, any year contains light as well as darkness. Also in 2021, researchers at Brown University successfully transmitted brain signals wirelessly to a computer for the first time (hopefully a breakthrough in treatment for paralyzed people), 124,000 new trees were planted in Sumatra as part of reforestation efforts, the WHO gave approval for widespread use of a groundbreaking malaria vaccine and almost nine billion Covid vaccinations have so far been administered worldwide since the first dose given in the UK 12 months ago, for a virus which only arrived 12 months before that.
But what, I hear you ask, about the law? As always, this year has been packed with fascinating and important legal developments — many of which you may have caught, but some of which may have passed under the radar. And so, please refresh your glass (or mug) and join me on another adventure as we review the 10 cases that defined 2021.
10 cases that defined 2020
The Christmas decorations at Middle Temple. Photo by the author.
This time last year I wrote that 2019 had been "perhaps the most tumultuous period in British politics for decades". Little did I know what 2020 would have in store.
The Covid-19 pandemic has caused loss, suffering and anxiety across not only the UK but almost all of the globe. At the UK Human Rights Blog, we feel deep gratitude to the doctors, nurses, carers and essential workers who have kept society going in what has been a deeply difficult year for so many of us.
In light of this, it is perhaps harder to summon the usual festive spirit that graces the approach of the holiday period — particularly as so many of us will be separated from our loved ones. And yet, perhaps it makes holding onto some spirit of joy all the more necessary.
Writing the article summing up the legal developments of the year is one of the highlights for me as commissioning editor of this blog. Let us embark together on a tour of what the courts had to say over the last 12 months. As ever, it has been a very interesting year.
Are "squalid" prison conditions and the response to the Covid-19 pandemic breaching human rights?
6 July 2020 by Jonathan Metzer
The Chief Inspector has described conditions at HMP Exeter (pictured) as "grim". Image: Wikipedia
The latest reports of HM Chief Inspector of Prisons and the Parliamentary Joint Committee on Human Rights lay bare the conditions in some British prisons.
Some of the language that is used to describe living conditions in the Chief Inspector's report is shocking – including "appalling", "squalid", "intolerable", "extremely squalid" and beset with "vermin and filth".
The Chief Inspector's view is that such conditions "should not feature in 21st century jails". This conclusion was expressed prior to the further impact caused by the Covid-19 pandemic.
Since the pandemic, the Government has introduced measures to address the risk of contagion including a blanket ban on visits since around 24th March which has still not been revisited despite the Covid-19 threat level having been reduced to level 3 on 19th June.
The conclusion of the Parliamentary Joint Committee on Human Rights is that the Government's response and the deficiencies in the measures to mitigate the impact of this "have put at risk the right to family life of up to an estimated 17,000 children of mothers in prison".
In the view of this author, the evidence indicates that in several respects the UK may well be in breach of vital protections for prisoners and their families under Articles 3 and 8 of the European Convention on Human Rights (ECHR). This extended piece will examine these issues in detail.
12 June 2020 by Jonathan Metzer
As many others in the legal community have said, we at the UK Human Rights Blog are deeply saddened and appalled by the killing of George Floyd and the events in Minneapolis and elsewhere that exemplify systemic racism and violence against black people.
We endorse the statements made by the Bar Council and by 1 Crown Office Row which may be found here.
We will explore these issues in more depth in upcoming podcasts and articles.
Article 6 applies to challenge to conditions imposed on suspected Al-Qaeda affiliate – an extended look
19 May 2020 by Jonathan Metzer
QX v Secretary of State for the Home Department [2020] EWHC 1221 (Admin)
In a complicated but very important decision, the High Court has ruled as a preliminary issue that the procedural protections under Article 6 which require a person to be given sufficient information about the allegations against them so they can give effective instructions to their lawyers will apply to a challenge to conditions imposed by order on a man suspected to have affiliations to Al-Qaeda.
This 'extended look' will explain the background to the issues in play and the way that a powerful 'cocktail' of rights under Articles 6 and 8 ECHR operates to try to ensure that a balance is struck between the rights of the individual and the collective interest in security.
Temporary Exclusion Orders
The claimant, QX, is a British national. He is married with three children who are all of toddler age. In October 2018, he and his wife were arrested in Istanbul.
On 26 November 2018 the Secretary of State successfully applied to the court for permission to impose a Temporary Exclusion Order (TEO) on QX for two years on grounds of national security. This was granted by the court and on 9 January 2019 QX was returned from Istanbul to the UK under the terms of the TEO.
A TEO is an order which may be imposed under the Counter-Terrorism and Security Act 2015 ("the 2015 Act") in order to temporarily disrupt the return and activities of a citizen suspected of being involved in terrorist-related activity abroad to manage the risk that they may pose to the public. It is an offence triable in either the Magistrates' or the Crown Court with a maximum sentence of 5 years if a person does not comply with TEO conditions without reasonable excuse.
'One of the most controversial questions which the law of human rights can generate': Supreme Court alters approach to Article 3 in medical cases – an extended look
29 April 2020 by Jonathan Metzer
Unlike some of the rights protected by the European Convention on Human Rights, the prohibition on torture or inhuman or degrading treatment under Article 3 is absolute. There is no question of striking a balance between Article 3 and other considerations: the state simply may not act in a way which would breach this prohibition.
This means that this right can offer crucial protection to the sorts of people that some members of the public may not have instinctive sympathy towards, such as an immigrant with a serious criminal history who may otherwise struggle to resist deportation. Even if their case is otherwise unattractive, if it is shown that deporting them would expose them to inhuman or degrading treatment (or indeed constitute such treatment), their appeal must succeed.
In certain circumstances this will include a person with a serious medical condition who resists removal on the basis that the disparity between medical care in their country of origin compared to their host state would mean that removing them would constitute inhuman or degrading treatment. Such cases had previously been considered to succeed primarily for a person close to death, where removal would involve "in effect, pulling a man off his deathbed" (AM (Zimbabwe), para 14).
However, in AM (Zimbabwe) v Secretary of State for the Home Department [2020] UKSC 17, the Supreme Court has held that the proper approach to Article 3 was modified by the European Court of Human Rights in Paposhvili v Belgium [2017] Imm AR 867. The relevant test now is whether removal would give rise to a real risk of a serious, rapid and irreversible decline in the person's state of health resulting in intense suffering, or to a substantial reduction in life expectancy. This does not require that death be imminent in the event of removal.
From your US correspondent: the Supreme Court of the United States
31 January 2020 by Jonathan Metzer
The US Supreme Court has had its home here since 1935
Last autumn I was privileged to spend six weeks in the United States as a scholar on the Pegasus Programme. This gave me the opportunity to learn a great deal about the similarities and contrasts between our legal systems, as well as the latest developments across the Atlantic.
In this piece I will tell you about what I learned about the US Supreme Court — its history, its role and what the Presidency of Donald Trump may mean for its future.
The Supreme Court is the highest court in the United States and acts as guarantor and arbiter of the Constitution. It has the power to establish (and extend) the content of constitutional rights and to strike down not only government acts, but also primary legislation incompatible with those rights.
And so, we reach the end of another year. And what a year it has been. As well perhaps the most tumultuous period in British politics for decades, this year saw the first ever image taken of a black hole, a victory for the England men's cricket team at the World Cup, the discovery of a new species of prehistoric small-bodied human in the Philippines and signs that humpback whale numbers in the South Atlantic have bounced back thanks to intensive conservation efforts.
And the law? Well, rather a lot has happened really. As the festive season draws near, what better way is there to celebrate than to rewind the clock and relive the 10 cases which have defined 2019?
Supreme Court rules unanimously that the prorogation of Parliament was unlawful
24 September 2019 by Jonathan Metzer
R (Miller) v The Prime Minister; Cherry and others v Advocate General for Scotland [2019] UKSC 41
In a historic decision, a panel of 11 justices of the Supreme Court has held that the decision of the Prime Minister, Boris Johnson, to prorogue Parliament for 5 weeks from 9 September to 14 October 2019 was unlawful on the basis that it constituted an unjustified frustration of the constitutional principles of Parliamentary sovereignty and accountability.
Giving the summary of the Court's reasons for the decision, the President of the Supreme Court, Lady Hale, said that
when the Royal Commissioners walked into the House of Lords it was as if they walked in with a blank sheet of paper … Parliament has not been prorogued.
It follows, said Lady Hale, that the Speaker of the House of Commons and the Lord Speaker of the House of Lords "can take immediate steps to enable each House to meet as soon as possible".
Right of appeal against refusal of a residence card: the conclusion
Field House, where the Upper Tribunal sits
The question of whether non-married partners and wider dependent relatives (e.g. grown-up children) of EEA nationals (known as 'extended family members') have a right of appeal against a decision by the Home Secretary to refuse them a residence card under the EEA Regulations has had a fraught recent history.
Now, as a result of the final decision of the Upper Tribunal in Banger (EEA: EFM – Right of Appeal) [2019] UKUT 194(IAC), full appeal rights have been restored to 'extended family members' whose applications are refused.
Judicial review against prorogation of Parliament launched
28 August 2019 by Jonathan Metzer
The day began with the news that the Prime Minister Boris Johnson had asked the Queen to prorogue (suspend) Parliament in order to table a Queen's Speech — with the effect that the number of days that MPs would sit between now and Brexit Day on Halloween being significantly reduced.
Tonight, Gina Miller, the successful claimant in the case challenging Theresa May's attempt to trigger Article 50 and begin the process of leaving the EU without a vote in Parliament, announced that she has reassembled the same legal team and launched a legal challenge to this move.
On Newsnight (see 31 mins, 20 seconds into this episode), former Supreme Court Justice Lord Sumption said that whilst he considered what Boris Johnson has done to be politically "shocking", he did not expect the courts to block the move, saying that
I think that it's a very very long shot. This is such an unusual situation that nobody can stand here and say what the answer is definitely going to be, but there are huge difficulties in the way of an application like that … the relations between the Crown and Parliament are governed by conventions … [which are] binding only in the sense that it would be politically costly to disregard them … the courts are not there to decide what are good political reasons and what are bad political reasons, they are there to decide what's lawful.
We shall have to wait to see what happens next.
Anisminic 2.0
The Supreme Court has ruled in R (Privacy International) v Investigatory Powers Tribunal [2019] UKSC 22 that the Investigatory Powers Tribunal's decisions are nevertheless amenable to judicial review, despite the existence of a powerfully-drawn 'ouster clause' preventing its decisions from being questioned by a court.
In this article we will navigate our way through the decision and have a look at the principles that lie behind this case and what its wider significance might be.
The Investigatory Powers Tribunal (IPT) is the body which has jurisdiction to examine the conduct of the Security Service, the Secret Intelligence Service and the Government Communications Headquarters (GCHQ). Effectively, the IPT is the court where a person can challenge the lawfulness of a decision to put them under surveillance.
The question in this case was whether the decisions of the IPT itself could be challenged in court. In particular, did the High Court have jurisdiction to entertain an application for judicial review brought by Privacy International against a decision by the IPT that computer hacking by GCHQ fell lawfully within its general warrant to undertake such activity?
Jonathan Metzer is the commissioning editor of the UK Human Rights Blog. He is a barrister at One Crown Office Row.
And so we come to the end of another whirlwind year.
It has gone by with worryingly rapid speed. As I write this it is hard to remember that scorching hot summer, with a Royal Wedding in bright sunshine and the England team surpassing all expectations at the World Cup. But as well as a number of major geopolitical events (including Brexit, which I promise not to mention for the rest of this article), this year also saw the unveiling of astonishing artwork at the Roman ruins of Pompeii, the reintroduction of the Chequered Skipper butterfly to Rockingham Forest, the first time that a robot addressed a Parliamentary meeting, and the demise of the Charles Darwin £10 note.
But what happened in the courts? Oh what an adventure it has been, dear reader. Strap on your seat belts and join me as we take a whistle-stop tour through 10 of the biggest legal battles of the last year.
Supreme Court rules that immigrants without indefinite leave have "precarious" status in UK
16 November 2018 by Jonathan Metzer
On 14th November 2018 the Supreme Court gave judgment in the case of Rhuppiah v Secretary of State for the Home Department [2018] UKSC 58. The effect of this decision is that:
(a) A claimant at the Immigration Tribunal who relies on their private (not family) life under Article 8 will be entitled to have only "little weight" placed on that private life if they have been in the UK without indefinite leave to remain, unless there are "particularly strong features of the private life in question"; and
(b) A claimant who is financially dependent on other people but not on the state should not have that fact held against them when assessing the public interest in their removal.
Whilst the result was a victory for the individual claimant in this case, the wider consequences of this decision will be to clarify and tighten the law in a way that will make it even harder than it already was for claimants to succeed on the basis of their private life in the UK.
Supreme Court rules that parental misconduct irrelevant to whether child should leave UK — an extended look
29 October 2018 by Jonathan Metzer
On 24th October 2018 the Supreme Court gave its judgment in the conjoined cases of KO (Nigeria); IT (Jamaica); NS (Sri Lanka) and others; Pereira v Secretary of State for the Home Department [2018] UKSC 53 — read judgment.
This is a major decision which clarifies the approach that the Immigration Tribunal should take to the question of whether a child and/or their parents should be removed from the UK in circumstances where it is claimed that this would constitute a disproportionate interference in their rights to private and family life.
In summary, the Court held that misconduct by the parents — be it criminal offending or immigration-related misdemeanours such as overstaying a visa — should not form part of the assessment of whether a child should be removed from the UK. As a result, it should also not form part of the assessment of whether Article 8 requires that the parent remain in the UK with the child.
However, the judgment is complicated and leaves some questions without clear answers. In this extended article, we will explore the reasoning of the Court and have a look at what has been clarified but also at what might now be plunged into confusion.

US shutters Russia's San Francisco consulate in retaliation

FILE - President Donald Trump speaks about tax reform at the Loren Cook Company, Wednesday, Aug. 30, 2017, in Springfield, Mo. In an escalating tit-for-tat, the United States forced Russia on Thursday to shutter its consulate in San Francisco and scale back its diplomatic presence in Washington and New York, as relations between the two former Cold War foes continued to unravel.
Alex Brandon, Associated Press
WASHINGTON (AP) — In an escalating tit-for-tat, the United States forced Russia on Thursday to shutter its consulate in San Francisco and scale back its diplomatic presence in Washington and New York, as relations between the two former Cold War foes continued to unravel.
The Trump administration said the move constituted its response to the Kremlin's "unwarranted and detrimental" decision to force the U.S. to cut its diplomatic staff in Russia. Under the order, Russia must close its San Francisco consulate by Saturday, along with Russia's "chancery annex" in Washington and a "consular annex" in New York.
"The United States is prepared to take further action as necessary and as warranted," said State Department spokeswoman Heather Nauert. Still, she said the U.S. hoped both countries could now move toward "improved relations between our two countries and increased cooperation on areas of mutual concern."
Earlier this month, the Kremlin retaliated for stepped-up U.S. sanctions on Russia by announcing the U.S. would have to cut its embassy and consulate staff in Russia by 755 people. During meetings in the Philippines shortly thereafter, Secretary of State Rex Tillerson left open the possibility the U.S., in turn, would retaliate for that move, and promised Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov a formal response by Sept. 1.
The U.S. has said as a result, it will stop issuing visas at its consulates in Russia in cities other than Moscow. A senior U.S. official said Thursday that the U.S. reduction of diplomatic staff is complete.
There was no immediate reaction from the Russian government. But given the back-and-forth nature of the escalating tensions over the past year, it was likely the Kremlin would feel compelled to respond by taking further action against the U.S.
Nevertheless, the United States argued that the score has been evened, urging Russia not to retaliate for the retaliation. U.S. officials pointed out that Russia, when it ordered the cut in U.S. diplomats, had argued it was merely bringing the size of the two countries' diplomatic presences into "parity."
"The United States hopes that, having moved toward the Russian Federation's desire for parity, we can avoid further retaliatory actions by both sides," Nauert said.

Eminem calls for gun control in powerful 'Darkness' video
"When will this end? When enough people care"
By Nick Reilly
Could a new Eminem album be on the way? CREDIT: Michael Caulfield/WireImage
Eminem has advocated for tighter US gun control measures in the video for new track 'Darkness'.
The rap icon surprised fans earlier today by releasing 'Music To Be Murdered By', which is 20 tracks and 64 minutes long. Guests include the late Juice WRLD (on 'Godzilla'), Ed Sheeran (on 'Those Kinda Nights'), Anderson .Paak (on 'Lock It Up') and Young M.A. (on 'Unaccommodating').
He has also released the video for 'Darkness', which deals with gun violence in America. In the song, Eminem raps from the point of view of a shooter targeting concertgoers from a hotel room.
The music video visualises the scene, which is a reference to the 2017 Las Vegas shooter who killed more than 50 people attending the Route 91 Harvest music festival.
64-year-old Nevada resident Stephen Paddock opened fire from the upper floors of the Mandalay Bay Hotel and Casino, with eyewitnesses reportedly seeing gun flashes before police stormed the building. It was subsequently confirmed that Paddock turned the gun on himself before police arrived.
The video for Eminem's latest ends with a call to viewers to register to vote at vote.gov.
"When will this end? When enough people care," the video reads. "Make your voice heard and help change gun laws in America."
The album has also seen Eminem attract criticism for 'Unaccommodating' – which features a controversial reference to the Manchester Arena attack in 2017.
"I'm contemplating yelling 'Bombs away' on the game/Like I'm outside of an Ariana Grande concert waiting," Eminem raps on the track.
'Music To Be Murdered By' follows Eminem's 2018 album, 'Kamikaze', which was also surprise-released.

Master of Science: Athletic Leadership
Our graduate programs at Clemson University build on the rich experiences and expertise of faculty and students to provide an educational environment in which both groups share in research, exploration and inquiry. The result of this synergy is impact — on our community and beyond.
Specialty Concentrations
The athletic leadership program in Clemson University's College of Education is moving forward to address the need of leadership development and ethical decision making in the intercollegiate athletic coaching and administrative community. The purpose of the AL master's degree will be to provide current and aspiring coaches and administrators, especially those at the intercollegiate level, an opportunity to obtain a graduate degree that focuses on leadership, ethics and coaching development within the current landscape of athletics in educational settings. This program will be developed to promote personal and professional growth in leadership, coaching integrity and community influence. The need for strong and effective leaders within the intercollegiate athletic community provides Clemson's athletic leadership program an opportunity to impact the future of college athletics through education, philosophical coaching development, leadership development and student athlete development.
The athletic leadership graduate program affords students the opportunity to receive a comprehensive discipline of study that (1) develops effective leaders in the fields of coaching and athletic administration; and (2) expands on the body of knowledge regarding ethical decision making, policy regulations and leadership at the intercollegiate setting.
This program meets the needs of students who are also working professionals. All courses are offered in an online format and designed around the time constraints and responsibilities of the intercollegiate coaching community. If you are accepted into the program, you will progress through the program by enrolling in two courses (taken consecutively) each term and complete the program in two years. Throughout this process, students will interact with instructors and students electronically in both synchronous (at the same time) and asynchronous (at different times) formats.
While the program provides a great deal of flexibility to meet the need of the coaching profession, students are responsible for allocating sufficient time in your schedules to access course material, review lectures, study content materials and complete assignments.
The two-year Master of Science degree online program is designed specifically around the time demands of the intercollegiate coaching community. The degree is designed to prepare coaches and administrators to build a philosophical foundation of leadership by equipping them with knowledge related to:
Leadership Theories
Student Athlete Development
Policies and Governance of Intercollegiate Athletics
Marketing and Finance of Intercollegiate Athletics
Psychological Components of Athletic Performance
Community Influence

As consumer awareness of adult incontinence and ageing issues in general continues to grow, there is increased acceptance and use of adult incontinence products in the country. This is true even for those people who are heavily influenced by a strong "machista" culture. While incontinence remained the smallest category in tissue and hygiene as of 2016, shifting consumer behaviours and the erosion of certain cultural barriers bode well for demand and sales growth.
Familia Sancela del Pacífico continued to lead adult incontinence in 2016, with a 40% share of retail value sales. Tena remains the most recognised brand in the country and is widely distributed via modern retail channels.
In Dominican culture, the younger generation generally takes care of ageing parents, grandparents and other relatives. As younger consumers are increasingly aware of product availability and health issues (especially relating to urinary incontinence), demand for adult incontinence products is expected to continue growing over the forecast period. While adult incontinence products are set to maintain momentum through education and exposure, promotional investment is also expected to pick up during the forecast period.
Discover the latest market trends and uncover sources of future market growth for the Incontinence industry in Dominican Republic with research from Euromonitor's team of in-country analysts.

Third Sermon at the Novitiate of St. Alberto Hurtado
The Signs Accompanying the True Gospel:
The Feast Day of St. Francis Xavier
The Miracles of St. Francis Xavier by Peter Paul Rubens
"Signs will accompany those who believe" (Mark 16:17). Signs indicate the presence of a deeper reality. They don't say something in and of themselves; rather, they confirm the veracity of a preexisting conviction. In Mark's Gospel reading—chosen because of the Feast Day of St. Francis Xavier—we hear one account of Jesus' parting words to his disciples. He reveals to them that great miracles will verify the good news that they preach to the world. However, it is important to note that such wonders are secondary in the text; they merely accompany the gospel. We know that Jesus' miracles produced mixed reactions amongst the crowds. Very soon after He multiplied the loaves and the fish, the masses turned on Him because of His difficult teaching on the Eucharist. Based on this reality, it seems that the message is more important than the miracle.
Nevertheless, the signs are there. How might we approach them? While studying at the University of Oxford, I often engaged in discussions with a Polish student of physics and philosophy. Peter and I would talk about God, miracles, and the Church with great frequency, but Peter was an atheist. He would always remind me that miracles do appear to occur, but that they are easily explainable if we turn to quantum physics. After all, everything comes down to probability when you think about it. His conviction demonstrated to me that miracles, though they might have captivated the imagination of people of earlier days, don't necessarily do the trick now, at least not among a certain class of intellectuals. Where, then, shall we turn?
Many people have speculated about the current crisis of the Roman Catholic Church. Some argue that the crisis is one of faith. Others say that it is an issue of trust. I think that we are living through a crisis of holiness. Why has Pope Francis, for instance, aroused so much interest? It is largely because he lives a life of authentic holiness. His lifestyle of sanctity turns more heads than the great number of miracles that have been performed within the Church since the start of his pontificate. The sign that verifies the message of the Gospel today is the sign of holiness.
Francis Xavier, being a saint, a holy man, as Bartlett's coworker put it, is an outstanding model to follow in this regard. In one of his letters from the Far East to his fellow Jesuits, St. Francis exhorted them to "dispose themselves for much," "que os dispongáis para mucho." Though he surely disposed himself for much in that modern scholars estimate his performance of more than 30,000 baptisms, he also disposed himself in ways that are much more akin to our own. Where did Francis Xavier initially go when he arrived in Goa: first, to a hospital to minister to patients, like Dwyer; second, to a prison, like a number of our second years; third, to a school, like many of us first years. He knew both the little way of St. Therese and the big way of the early Apostles, both of which were signs that served to confirm the gospel he proclaimed.
St. Francis Xavier's challenge to us, my brothers, is to internalize his call to "dispose ourselves for much." I'm convinced that holy witness, above all, will convince this generation that God is truly Emmanuel. Let us pray that, during this advent season, we might rediscover the miraculous truth that the same Spirit that raised Jesus from the dead dwells in us, as well. With God on our side, we can dispose ourselves to accomplish the impossible task put before the disciples and, of course, put now before us: the evangelization of the whole world.

Advent Poetry
Fix the flickering light.
Arouse Your hidden might.
My eyes have gone weary.
Our prospect is dreary.
Reset the world aright.
Take notice of our plea.
Restore our long lost glee.
Have pity and astound
The demons all around.
They will turn back and flee.
Dry up the teary face
That longs to receive grace.
Our hearts have been waiting
To move past mere dating.
Sow quick the wedding lace.
Wake up the hills that sleep
Beyond the valley deep.
No one can ever know
When Your glory will show.
You in us vigil keep.

This week's entry is for the Apple fanatics, and iPhone owners (or potential iPhone owners) in particular.
There was a post over at TUAW last week encouraging readers to weigh in on what may or may not be present in the forthcoming iPhone OS 4.0. I missed their deadline for submitting comments, but read on to hear my thoughts anyway — I'm going to talk about a couple of things I'd like to see happen to the built-in Maps app.
There is a big market for GPS-like turn-by-turn directions on the iPhone, and plenty of companies both big and small have thrown their hats in with varying features and price points (an excellent comparison of such apps is available at Pocket GPS World). While this is enough to show that users really want voice-navigated directions on their phone, the big reason I think this will happen is that Droid users already have this behaviour built straight into Google Maps. This is a big feature, and the difference between having it available by default on the Droid and as a paid app on the iPhone is significant, and something I think Apple will want to address.
There are a lot of apps designed to help users find nearby points of interest. Some of the more recent ones have started a trend called augmented reality, which is when a live feed of the camera on the phone is used as the background and information is overlayed on top of it based on what direction the user is facing. With the iPhone's accelerometer and compass, this technique has proven to be remarkably accurate and holds a lot of "wow" factor; something Apple has consistently been a fan of.
Since most of these apps are simply wrappers for the Maps app, why not cut out the middleman and blend an augmented reality feature into Maps by default? This would be Apple's first entry into the growing augmented reality market, and would really up the ante for developers who currently offer augmented reality mapping features. Apple is all about shaking things up, so while this is probably pretty unlikely it wouldn't be entirely out of character.
I've given my thoughts about the Maps app, which I think will net a big update come the next iPhone OS release. What do you think will be added/changed/removed in iPhone OS 4.0?
