COVER STORY: Gene manipulation: time to call a halt
by News Weekly
News Weekly, May 19, 2001
Justice Kirby's recent foray into Federal politics created such a storm that even his colleagues on the High Court bench intervened, intimating this time their brother judge had gone too far.
At a recent University of South Australia graduation ceremony Justice Kirby blamed the "drift" of students towards the private system specifically on Federal Government funding policy, declaring it a regrettable development.
During the ceremony, at which he was awarded an honorary doctorate, Justice Kirby claimed the two-thirds/one third mix of public and private education, which he said had been the hallmark of the Australian system for 100 years, was being deliberately broken down by government policy.
He went on further to declare that the trend of parents seeking private education for their children "has been encouraged by substantially increased government funding for private education".
Given the intensity of the recent political debate between the Coalition and the Opposition Labor Party over education funding, these were explosive words, particularly in an election year.
It was not surprising that the patently political comments, which basically took the line of the Federal Opposition expressed through its education spokesman Michael Lee, struck a raw nerve with the Government.
The Attorney-General Daryl Williams accused the judge of making "politically motivated" statements, while Education Minister Dr David Kemp claimed Kirby's analysis was flawed and based on incorrect figures which had been part of the ALP's propaganda in the debate.
Even Prime Minister John Howard made an unprecedented intervention declaring Justice Kirby's comments "inappropriate" and "blatantly and obviously a matter of political debate between the two political parties".
Justice Kirby defended his outspokenness on the issue by saying that he was the only current High Court judge who had spent his entire schooling in the public school system, and remained a passionate defender of its contribution to the nation.
The lawyer went to the selective Fort Street High, Sydney - the oldest public school in Australia.
Four of the seven High Court judges followed up the Liberal politicians' words of recrimination by warning judges in general about not expressing personal opinions in public, because they might compromise the appearance of impartiality that was vital to public confidence in the administration of justice.
Justices Michael McHugh, William Gummow and Kenneth Hayne joined Chief Justice Murray Gleeson in an obvious caution to Kirby. The carefuly chosen words were made specifically and pointedly in the course of a joint legal decision.
However, this is not the first time Justice Kirby has spoken publicly on controversial issues. He has spoken on everything from the human genome project to homosexual rights, using every imaginable forum including elite Catholic schools. The High Court's own website publishes all the speeches made by judges since their appointments.
They include 19 speeches made by the Chief Justice in his three years on the bench, and Justice Mary Gaudron's two speeches. No speeches are listed for Justice Gummow. Since Justice Kirby's appointment by the former Labor Government in 1986 he has made an extraordinary 89 speeches outside the court. It is a pattern which has characterised Kirby's legal career, including his previous incarnation as head of the Law Reform Commission.
However, Justice Kirby clearly overstepped the mark in this case, making one speech too many on one issue too many. Kirby's superficial (and quite possibly incorrect) analysis also overlooked other factors in the debate, including problems unrelated to funding in the public education system such as the philosophies and attitudes being pushed by government schools.
Justice Kirby's education speech has also broken a vital and long-standing rule of judges being seen to be apolitical and impartial, not to mention the unspoken rules of judges needing to be discreet and reticent public figures.
The frequency and breadth of Kirby's out-of-court commentaries also raises potential conflict of interest issues in future court cases.
It can be an over-simplificiation to claim that all the judges on the High Court are either conservative or liberal, even when their appointments are made by a Labor or Coalition Government. Justice Kirby himself, though liberal on social issues, is very conservative on constitutional matters.
Nevertheless, High Court judges are clearly important long-term appointments which can have an influence on the life of the nation long after the political appointers themselves have departed the scene. Such was the case with the Wik decision made in the first year of the Howard Government, and which had such a dominant impact on the Government's first term of office.
At the time of that decision Deputy Prime Minister Tim Fischer came under heavy criticism for accusing the High Court of being "activist" in its judgements, and his hope that Coalition would appoint "Capital C conservatives" to the bench.
Mr Fischer's words prompted accusations he was "interferring in the separation of powers" - and appeared to be mild compared with Justice Kirby's intervention in the education debate.
Yet Mr Fischer was only verbalising what everyone knows: that one of the unstated privileges of office in gaining the Treasury benches is the opportunity it brings to appoint judges of a particular calibre to the High Court.
The current make-up of the High Court consists of three Howard Government appointees (Gleeson, Ian Callinan and Hayne) and four Hawke-Keating appointees (Kirby, Gaudron, Michael McHugh and Gummow).
Since 1977 judges have had to retire at the age of 70, yet none of the incumbents are anywhere near reaching that point. Chief Justice Murray Gleeson is only 52, while Justice McHugh is 65, Callinan is 63, Kirby is 62, Gummow is 58, Gaudron is 58, and Hayne is 55.
Thus it may be some time before a party of either complexion gets to make another High Court appointment.

5. Don?t grow too many in one container.
The first step is choosing which seeds to sprout. The standard sprout is the alfalfa sprout. This is the sprout often served on salads and sandwiches and your favorite restaurant or deli.
However, there are many other seeds that make excellent sprouts, each with their own flavor and nutritional composition. You can sprout barley, broccoli, buckwheat, cabbage, fenugreek, garbanzo, green peas, lentils, mung beans (found in Chinese food), radishes, red clover, wheat, soy beans, sunflowers and more.
Always use seeds packaged for sprouting. Buying bulk seeds and grains may seem cheaper than seeds packaged for sprouting, but they may not be worth it. Unless they are packaged as high-germination spouting seeds, only a portion of them will sprout.
The ones that do not sprout, will likely ferment and spoil the batch. Do not use seeds meant for planting. They are often treated with chemical pesticides, fungicides and mercury coatings.
Also, do not use seeds that have molds growing on them. Molds produce toxins which can cause food poisoning.
The easiest method is to grow sprouts in a glass canning jar. Any size jar will do. To provide plenty of fresh air, cover the top of the jar with muslin, cheese cloth or nylon mesh screen and secure with a rubber band.
You can also buy specially sprouting lids designed for this purpose.
For a quart-sized jar, put 1 ? to 2 tablespoons of small seeds (up to 1 cup if using larger seeds like green peas or garbanzo) in the sprouting jar. Cover top of jar with cloth or sprouting lid and rinse the seeds in warm (not hot) water.
Drain and refill so that water is about an inch above the seeds. Let the seeds soak 8-12 hours (overnight). Protect from light by covering with a dish towel or placing in a cupboard.
Rinse 2 to 3 times per day for 2 to 3 days. After thoroughly draining the rinse water, lay the jar on its side to spread out the seeds. Do not expose to light.
After 2 to 3 days the sprouts should be filling up the jar.
After 2 to 3 days the sprouts will have thrown off their hulls. To remove the hulls, place the sprouts in a bowl and run cool water over them. Most of the hulls will either float to the top or sink to the bottom making them easy to remove.
Rinse sprouts in cool water and remove any remaining hulls. Drain in a colander, but do not allow the sprouts to dry out. Place in an air-tight bag leaving room for air circulation.
Once the hulls are removed, place the sprouts back into the sprouting jar or into a clear plastic airtight bag. Put the sprouts in indirect sunlight. It takes about a day for the chlorophyll and carotenes to develop.
Once the sprouts are ready rinse, drain, and eat, or refrigerate.
Sprouts will keep for about a week in the refrigerator if you rinse them once every day or two. Be sure to keep the sprouts from freezing as they are frost sensitive.
Seeds are easy to store. Put them an a glass jar with an air-tight lid and keep them in a cool, dark storage area. They will keep for a year or more.

Reflections on Open Data Camp
Over the weekend of 21st – 22nd October, the UK Open Data Camp bandwagon rolled into town and 'pitch'ed up at Queen's University Belfast's Computer Science Building.
Open Data Camp is run by a group of extremely enthusiastic volunteers from both the public and private sector in the UK. They were enticed to Belfast by the OpenDataNI team in the Department of Finance who formed the local organising team.
The Camp followed an 'unconference' format which is based around collaboration and peer-to-peer learning, giving everyone a chance to lead or just participate in a discussion on a topic related to open data.
There were over 100 attendees on both days, with a near perfect mix of 50% from NI with the other 50% coming from England, Wales, Scotland, Ireland and even further afield with an attendee from New York!
Permanent Secretary Hugh Widdis also attended the Open Data Camp and lent his support to the event.
The energy levels in the building were contagious as we were treated to a diverse range of discussions, debates and exchanges of information on all things 'open data'.
The only problem was with 5 parallel sessions on Saturday and 4 on Sunday, it was hard to try and get to all the sessions that were of interest! The Open Data Camp website blogged throughout the weekend and many of the sessions are summarised there, along with brilliant cartoon representations which were captured in real-time by Drawnalism Ltd.
This is the image summary for the session on WiFi data.
And you can read more about it here .
Antje Otto, a communications manager from the Interfaces team in Department of Justice and a self- confessed open data novice, said the following:
"Attending an Open Data Camp for the first time, I didn't have specific expectations but hoped to find out what is happening, and how the Open Data community could be beneficial to the work of DoJ Interfaces team. What I found was a very enthusiastic community keen to improve access to open data and to share their own knowledge and experiences.
Some challenges will remain in making open data relevant and applicable to areas of evidence-based policy. From an Interface team perspective, the question I pitched was whether Open Data could support bringing divided communities together, and therefore our starting point to using open data is from a problem solving perspective.
Overall the weekend was an opportunity for learning, networking and researching opportunities for partnership working. The atmosphere was welcoming and supportive to the Open Data novice. All in all a weekend well spent, perhaps even addictive."
The Drawnalism image of Antje's session can be viewed below.
Stephen Barry who previously worked in the health sector attended and had this to say about the Camp…
"Open Data Camp allows the likes of myself who works in the public sector and who has ideas and possibly solutions to make things better openly talk about those ideas with like-minded folk from different sectors.
My talk was about how we develop better open registers the building blocks of open data. I talked about work being developed by the Government Digital Service in England and how that might help what we currently have in Northern Ireland using the open GP register as an example.
To my surprise and delight, I had folk directly involved with GDS and the NI GP register at my session! This led to a brilliant debate on how we could do better with me facilitating the session.
The outcome... new relationships formed, opportunities to explore better solutions and above all a keen desire to keep promoting how open data helps society daily. I would recommend everybody attends an unconference, hopefully like me you'll feel empowered, connected to a bigger community and come away having learned a few things.
How good would it be if we had unconferences as part of our work schedule..."
And you can read more about his GP registers session here .
Fantastic, amazing, extraordinary, super and historic were just some of the comments made by attendees following the event. We in the OpenDataNI team have to agree that Belfast was buzzing with open data conversations all weekend and ever since! Twitter was alight with tweets under the #ODCamp hashtag if you want to catch up on what you missed.
Stephen McGonagle, a statistician in the Department for the Economy, remarked that it was….
"A thought provoking event with open-minded people engaging in open conversations about opening up data, all with the aim to make life better for all of us!"
The Chief Executive of Enterprise Shared Services in the Department of Finance, Paul Wickens joined the Camp on Saturday afternoon and told us...
"I was so pleased to see Belfast showing off our capabilities, knowledge and heritage to the Open Data community in the wonderful new Computer Science building at QUB. I was honoured to participate in and observe the power of crowd sourcing ideas and experience to exploit the power of Open Data. Congratulations to Suzanne and the team for making us all proud!"
To sum up, Open Data Camp was a fantastic experience to showcase what is happening in Northern Ireland with open data and to learn from colleagues in both the public and private sector about their successes and experiences.
We hope to encourage more of these events and more release and re-use of public sector data. You can follow OpenDataNI on Twitter @OpenDataNI .

Moonshots presents stunning photos of space and Earth from NASA's archives - taken by Gemini, Apollo, Space Shuttle, and ISS astronauts using high resolution Hasselblad cameras.
In December 1968, the crew of Apollo 8 captured images depicting Earth hanging like a lonely fruit in the vast darkness of space. The social and spiritual shock of that photograph--and those which followed--never fully diminished, even as Apollo missions followed at an incredible pace, including the first lunar landing on July 20, 1969.
Moonshots is the definitive photographic chronicle of NASA space exploration--a giant slipcased book featuring more than 200 remarkable photographs from that eventful era created almost exclusively on large-format Hasselblad cameras. Though a number of these images have been reproduced in books and magazines over the years, one attribute of this incredible collection has seldom been exploited: the sheer size and resolution of the photography. Aerospace author Piers Bizony scoured NASA's archives of Hasselblad film frames to assemble the space fan's ultimate must-have book--a gorgeous large-format hardcover presented in a heavy slipcase with die-cuts to represent the phases of the moon.
PIERS BIZONY's book Atom, the dramatic story of the rivalries and passions behind the discovery of quantum physics, was a tie-in for a BBC TV series. An earlier book,The Rivers of Mars, a critically acclaimed analysis of the life on Mars debate, was shortlisted for the NASA/Eugene M. Emme Award for Astronautical Writing, while Invisible Worldsexplored the strange borderland where twenty-first century science meets art. He now serves as a member of an Editorial Advisory Board overseeing the quality of science and technology publications linked to the BBC brand and is a regular contributor to Engineering and Technology (E&T)magazine, Flipside, Focus, and New Scientist.

The Gulf Cooperation Council said it is monitoring the development of Iran's nuclear program with "extreme concern" and denounced any use of force against the Islamic state.
The regional organization urged Iran "to comply with international law," according to a statement distributed at the conclusion of the 31st annual GCC summit in Abu Dhabi today. Members reaffirmed their "mutual respect with Iran" and condemned "the use of force or threat against" it.
State Department cables released by Wikileaks.org last week appeared to show that Arab countries, including Saudi Arabia, had appealed to the U.S. to attack Iran to stop its nuclear program. Saudi Arabia has said it isn't sure whether the cables are genuine. The Sunni Muslim kingdom and Iran, which follows Shiite teachings, are regional rivals.
On a visit to Bahrain last week, Iran's Foreign Minister Manouchehr Mottaki said the country's Muslim neighbors are "not suspicious" of it and that Persian Gulf states shouldn't impose their views on one another.
The six-member GCC comprises Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates, Qatar, Kuwait, Bahrain and Oman.
Meanwhile, the U.A.E. said it hopes to see an end to sanctions imposed on Iran by the United Nations Security Council over its nuclear program, adding that the country should encourage an end to the measures.
"We want the Security Council to end sanctions on Iran but Iran has to help this as well," said Sheikh Abdullah bin Zayed Al Nahyan, foreign minister for the U.A.E., which has strong trade ties with its non-Arab neighbor across the Persian Gulf.
The U.A.E. encourages Iran to pursue a peaceful nuclear program, Sheikh Abdullah said today. He added that he hopes "good will" will guide all parties to finding a resolution to the Iran nuclear issue when they meet in Istanbul in January.

Germans fine Google for Wi-Fi snooping with Street View cars
By Loek Essers
PCWorld Apr 22, 2013 4:20 am PDT
Google must pay a $190,000 (€145,000) fine in Germany for gathering and storing emails, photos, passwords, and chat protocols from unprotected Wi-Fi networks with Google Street View cars, Hamburg's Commissioner for Data Protection and Freedom of Information said on Monday.
Google's Street View cars collected data from Wi-Fi networks such as SSIDs (service set identifiers), MAC addresses and personal payload data beginning in 2008, the company said in 2010. That admission prompted a German lawyer to request that the public prosecutor in Hamburg start a formal criminal investigation into Google's practices.
However, in November 2012, two years and nine months later, the prosecutor's office decided not to pursue a criminal investigation into the matter because it was unable to find any violation of German criminal standards, it said at the time.
After that, Hamburg Data Protection Commissioner Johannes Caspar decided to reopen regulatory offense proceedings.
Deemed negligent, not malicious
Google captured and stored personal data negligently and without authorization, the commissioner said Monday. Because Google didn't intend to gather the data but did so negligently, the company was only fined half of the maximum €300,000 fine, Caspar said.
Caspar said this is a very serious matter and one of the biggest privacy violations in the world. "You have to realize that Google was driving in lots of countries throughout the whole world, and they had the same problems in other countries," he said.
Google handed hard drives containing the collected data to the Hamburg data protection authority, Caspar said. "Without it we wouldn't have been able to analyze this case, and our investigation would have been very difficult."
Google's Global Privacy Counsel Peter Fleischer said the company had quickly tightened up its systems to address the issue. "The project leaders never wanted this data, and didn't use it or even look at it. We cooperated fully with the Hamburg DPA throughout its investigation," he said via email.
The commissioner also ordered Google to delete all the data it had gathered. A third party verified that Google indeed deleted the data, Caspar said.
Other troubles
This is the second major privacy issue Germany had with Google Street View. When the program began, residents objected to Google recording license plates and images of passers-by. An op-out program drew a large response.
In the U.S., Google was fined by the Federal Communications Commission for similar data-gathering from unprotected wireless networks.
