Q: How 2D Array_List Work? I am a little confused on how a 2D array list work I read alot about this but I am still confused. I know that a 2D array list can be defined as follow:
ArrayList<ArrayList<Integer>> arrayname=new ArrayList<ArrayList<Integer>>();

I imagine this arraylist as a two dimensional matrix lets say with four rows and five columns. then with 2D arraylist I should have four inner arraylist each has five columns. but how I can fill one inner matrix to five elements and then move to the next inner matrix.
Thank you in advance

A: Assuming that you have initialized empty lists, and put them into the 2d arraylist:
for(int i = 0; i < 10; i++){
    for(int j = 0; j < 5; j++){
        arrayname.get(i).add(j);
    }
}

You can call .get(index) on your array, and you will get the inner array. Think of the out array as columns, and the inner array as the row in the column.
arrayname.get(1).get(2);

Would return the item in the second column, at the third row. The indexes look like: (the first number is what you put in the first get(), the second number is what you put in the second get()).
[0,0], [1,0], [2,0]
[0,1], [1,1], [2,1]
[0,2], [1,2], [2,2]

And so forth. So if you store the values
1, 2, 3
4, 5, 6
7, 8, 9

And you call
arrayname.get(0).get(2);

You would get the value 7

Oil prices fell to below $83 a barrel Friday in Asia after Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke gave no hint that the central bank is planning stimulus measures to revive a faltering recovery.
Benchmark oil for July delivery was down $1.99 to $82.83 per barrel at late afternoon Singapore time in electronic trading on the New York Mercantile Exchange. The contract fell 20 cents to settle at $84.82 in New York on Thursday.
In London, Brent crude for July delivery was down $1.83 at $98.10 per barrel on the ICE Futures exchange.
Bernanke told Congress on Thursday that the Fed is ready to act if the financial crisis in Europe threatens the U.S. economy. But he didn't indicate that any new steps were on the way.
Some analysts expect policymakers won't sharply loosen monetary policy until the global economy and crude demand are weaker.
Crude dropped from $106 early last month to below $82 on Monday amid investor concern that signs of slowing economic growth in Europe, the U.S. and China will undermine oil demand. Political turmoil in Greece and fears that country may leave the euro common currency also hurt investor confidence.
Barclays said crude will likely trade sideways for the next few weeks now that a gloomier global economic outlook has been factored in.
In other energy trading, heating oil was down 2.5 cents at $2.64 per gallon while gasoline futures fell 3.6 cents at $2.65 per gallon. Natural gas slid 1.8 cents at $2.26 per 1,000 cubic feet.


Harry Potter Pub in London: Live the Magic!
Harry Potter Pub: Live the Magic in London!
Have not you received your letter from Hogwarts yet? No problem!
Here is some good news for all Harry Potter lovers.
There is a bar that makes you fly directly to the most desired magic school in the world.
The Harry Potter Pub is a daydream!
As soon as you cross the threshold the magic begins. Each person is given a magician's tunic and a magic wand. With just a simple touch a person can activate a beer stapler or change the colour of a cocktail. By consulting ancient books of magic you can create a real potion in a cauldron, which thanks to the magical ingredients begins to smoke.
Harry Potter Pub in London!
A pub to visit in London? The brand new The Cauldron is the place to visit, but only if you are magicians and not a Muggle. A real must for all the fans of the character, born of the imagination of J.K. Rowling, you will find a corner of Hogwarts in central London.
Once inside, visitors receive a magic wand with touch sensors that can be used inside for various reasons. Visitors can light a fire, turn lights on and off, pour a beer, change the colour of a cocktail and release smoke out of a cauldron. As well as the wand, every magician will also receive a real black hooded robe and a book containing potions.
The Harry Potter Pub reproduces the magical atmosphere of Harry Potter with dishes inspired by the novel such as tartlets, cocktails named according to the various potions and special ingredients taken from the saga.
Once you have visited the trolley at platform 9 ¾ in King's Cross Station, why not during your stay in London experience the Cauldron Pub. It's not magic, its reality!
Inside the restaurant, lovers of the saga can admire photographs and holograms, special effects and immerse themselves in the magic of Harry Potter.
The Cauldron will offer a magical environment in every sense.


IMEX - What is IMEX?
What exactly is the IMEX program?
IMEX stands for International Medical Educators eXchange. Many schools, including our own, have faculty development programs, teacher courses or teacher coaching tracks. The IMEX program is unique in its international orientation on medical education. As visiting scholars participants will collaborate closely with a small number of colleagues from other countries during an intensive week at one of the host university medical centers.
A completed IMEX program includes minimally three, maximally six site visits to different participating universities.
During the site visits, the participants will learn about or be involved in the local medical curriculum, meet colleagues interested in medical education, discover strengths and challenges of different educational systems and get an overall view of diverse medical educational environments.
During the week, the participants will participate in formal discussions of medical education issues, observe educational activities, pursue an education project in collaboration of IMEX or host institution colleagues, and reflect on their experiences and their relevance to their home institutions. This format is quite different from what can be learned from regular staff development courses, during medical education conferences, and from medical education journals and books about education.


Our Trainee Accountant programme leads to industry and internationally recognised accounting qualifications through the Association of Accounting Technicians (AAT) and then the Association of Certified Chartered Accountants (ACCA) – a graduate trainee would commence with studying ACCA.
We've dedicated a lot of time to HSA & Co's future, thinking about the direction in which we want to move our business, and the individual skills which we need to get us there.
Our training programme has been designed to create highly skilled managers, directors and partners of the future, who are not only technically excellent, but who understand and support our vision and services inside and out.
We firmly believe that excellence comes from creating our own professionals from the start and we have tailored our programme to uphold this.
Our approach to training differs from other smaller-sized firms, in that we aim to provide our trainees with an all-round accountancy experience.
Upon joining HSA & Co, you will enter into a six-month probationary appointment during which you will undertake duties such as preparing basic accounts, under close supervision.
After this period, if both you, and the firm are happy that accountancy is the right career choice for you, you will be offered a training contract.
Gaining your AAT and/or ACCA qualification while working full-time is not easy. You will be committing yourself to at least five years of college and exams and you'll be on a very steep learning curve.
We'll support you in every way possible - covering the full costs of your training and allowing you the time out to attend college. In consideration of this, you'll need to attend every class and put in the hours of self-study you will need to get you through.
You will gain enviable qualifications which will open the door to many opportunities. You will also be rewarded with a competitive salary from day one. Full study support is provided, including: on-the-job training, professional membership, exam entry and exam exemption fees paid, day release to study, professional study and revision courses provided, continual job appraisals and regular feedback and development meetings.
A minimum of two A Levels A-C or equivalent (excluding general studies), with a minimum of five GCSEs (A-C) including Maths and English. A level or equivalent Maths or Business Studies is preferable but not mandatory. A graduate trainee must have at least a 2:1 in a suitable academic subject.


Do You See Obstacles or Opportunities? | Choose Your Energy: Change Your Life!
← Are You Leading with Your Entire Brain?
There's an oft-told story that perfectly illustrates the next key distinction between anabolic and catabolic leaders.
A shoe company once sent two salespeople to a region of Africa in which the company had never sold any shoes. The first was Tom, one of their most experienced senior sales reps. They expected big things of Tom.
The other was an eager rookie named Cynthia. She didn't have much experience, but she had a lot of enthusiasm. They figured she might be able to sell a few pair of shoes.
Two people, faced with the same situation, yet having totally different reactions. What's the difference between them? In a word, it's energy—Tom is fueled by catabolic energy and Cynthia is fueled by anabolic energy. Looking through the lens of catabolic energy, leaders see obstacles and problems everywhere and in everything.
When they shift to the lens of anabolic energy, those same leaders become motivated to take action and capitalize on the plethora of opportunities and possibilities they perceive in every situation and circumstance.
Gripped by the Big 4 fear-fueled blocks of limiting beliefs, interpretations, assumptions and gremlins, leaders tend to focus on what's wrong with their lives, their businesses and the world. When they choose to immerse themselves in a sea of destructive, catabolic energy, they complain, moan and don't take a lot of action because they believe there are only more obstacles and problems ahead.
People with high anabolic energy—what Bruce D. Schneider refers to as Level 5 and above in his book Energy Leadership—get excited about transforming everything into an opportunity. They look at every situation and wonder what's working, what's right and what breakthrough might be next? They don't see obstacles or problems, just thrilling adventures and fulfilling possibilities for making life even better.
While a leader fueled by catabolic energy might get upset and angry if one of his customers took his business to a competitor, a leader fueled by anabolic energy would look at that situation as an opportunity to, not only get the customer back, but to strengthen that and other client relationships by identifying and improving the factors that led to the customer's dissatisfaction.
As you go through your day, look at your responses to what's happening around you. Remember that your chosen perceptions calibrate your energy level and that energy level creates your reality.

Egypt has finalised a $10bn deal with BP that could significantly boost the country's natural gas production.
The gas project had stalled for three years in the face of political, social and economic turmoil in the Arab world's most populous country but Egypt's prime minister has announced completion of the deal according to Egyptian media outlet Ahram Online.
The BP-discovered fields are thought to hold around 5 trillion cubic feet of gas and could potentially produce 1.2 million cubic feet per day.
That would amount to roughly 20% of Egypt's daily gas needs, although consumption is forecast to rise to12.5% in the current fiscal year.
The fields, located in the Alexandria governorate, are set to be connected to the national grid in 2017.
The move is likely to boost investor confidence in Egypt which has suffered from foreign capital flight and energy shortages since 2011.
The country's new President Abdel Fattah al-Sisi has launched a bid to tackle the country's energy crisis, by reducing government fuel subsidies and encouraging Egyptians to reduce personal consumption.
Energy prices in Egypt have been among the lowest in the world for years. While successive administrations have pledged to tackle the fiscal challenge, Sisi is the first leader in decades to push ahead with major public finance reforms.

Flooding is the most widespread of all weather-related natural disasters. Floods are dangerous, cause significant property damage, may reduce property values, and are becoming more frequent in some areas.
Overview#
Flooding occurs when water overflows onto land that is normally dry. It happens during heavy rains, when ocean waves come onshore, when snow melts quickly, and when dams or levees break. Floods are the most common and widespread of all weather-related natural disasters and include river floods, flash floods, and coastal floods. Flooding can occur within a few minutes or over longer periods and can last for weeks or longer.
River floods normally result from excessive rain, rain combined with snowmelt, or an ice jam. In some areas, the soil is unable to absorb heavy rainfall and flash floods develop. Land use practices that remove vegetation and decrease the ability of soil to absorb water can contribute to river floods. For example, in 2019, the Mississippi River remained above flood stage in many locations for over six months as a result of excessive rainfall combined with snowmelt and a history of land management that has reduced the ability of the surrounding landscape to absorb water.
Flash floods are the most dangerous type of flood because they combine the destructive power of a flood with incredible speed and little or no warning. Most flood-related deaths in the US are attributed to flash floods. They are typically raging torrents of water in river beds, city streets, or canyons. Deforestation and urbanization both reduce the ability of soil to absorb water and can contribute to flash floods. Failed levees or dams or a sudden release of water from an ice or debris jam can also cause flash floods.
Coastal flooding occurs as a result of higher than normal high tides and is worsened by rainfall, snowmelt, or onshore winds. Along the Atlantic and Gulf coasts this type of flooding can be common--for example, Savannah, Georgia and Charleston, South Carolina both experience this type of shallow coastal flooding several times a year. The frequency of coastal flooding is increasing--NOAA researchers predict that the number of coastal floods will continue to increase and may double by 2030 and be 5-15 times more common by 2050. Storm surge is water that is pushed towards shore by winds and often occurs during hurricanes. Storm surge combined with a normal high tide can produce water levels 15 feet above a normal high tide and flood as much as 30 miles inland from the coast.
Your Home and Floods#
Health and Safety#
The National Weather Service (NWS) issues a variety of flood-related advisories and warnings. These can be monitored directly through the NWS or your local radio or television stations. The NWS has developed clear guidelines for what to do before, during, and after a flood. These include preparing in advance by assembling an emergency kit, knowing your risk, signing up for NWS notifications of alerts via text message, preparing your family and pets, and charging essential electronics. During a flood stay informed, get to higher ground, obey evacuation orders, practice electrical safety, and avoid floodwaters. After a flood, avoid floodwaters and disaster areas, heed road closed and cautionary signs, and wait for the All Clear by authorities before entering flood-damaged homes or buildings.
Property Values#
Flooding causes an average of $5 billion in damage each year in the US--more than any other severe weather-related event. In general, property values are negatively impacted by a flood zone designation as well as actual flooding. A study in the Fargo-Moorhead Metropolitan area of North Dakota found that home values within a 100-year floodplain typically had a market value of 3.5-12.2% lower than similar homes located outside of the floodplain. Research on property values in Miami-Dade County in Florida estimated that properties at risk of recurrent tidal flooding go down in value over $3 per square foot annually. In addition, a single major flooding event can also reduce property values--following Hurricane Sandy, undamaged properties in designated flood zones in New York City decreased in value by over 8%.
What You Can Do#
Most homeowners insurance does not cover flood damage. If your home is in a high-risk flood zone, then flood insurance is required if you have a mortgage with a government-backed lender and can be purchased at a subsidized rate through FEMA's National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP). Discounts are also available on flood insurance through NFIP by retrofitting your home to mitigate risk from flooding. Flood insurance is also available regardless of flood zone designation from private carriers outside of the NFIP.

City, County and PBS announce winner of El Paso Safe PSA Contest
Monday afternoon, officials with the City and County of El Paso in collaboration with PBS El Paso announced that Juan Diego Burciaga Sosa and Braulio Banuelos were the first and second place winners, respectively, of the El Paso Safe PSA contest.
"We asked the community to show us their creativity and we were so impressed and excited to see the results, which also made the final two winners very hard to select," said Jessica Herrera, Director of International and Economic Development for the City of El Paso. "We loved the opportunity to show off our community's amazing talent, creativity and the immense love of El Paso."
More than 50 videos were submitted and narrowed down to the top five by staff from the City, County and PBS. El Paso Mayor Dee Margo and County Judge Ricardo Samaniego selected the final top two winners.
Entries were judged based on four criteria: creativity, message effectiveness, how well the video represents El Paso and the quality of video and sound.
The first and second place winning videos will air on PBS El Paso, the City of El Paso municipal channel (Spectrum Ch. 1300, DTV Ch. 13.4, AT&T U-Verse Ch. 99), and City and County social media pages beginning this week.
Burciaga Sosa, the first place winner, also will receive a $1,500 cash prize and Banuelos, the second place winner, will receive $500.
The contest, which opened in mid-May, asked El Pasoans to submit a short 15- to 60-second video that highlights CDC guidelines, such as maintaining social distancing or wearing PPE when in public.
The PSAs can be found by clicking here.

Behind the Spin, Egypt Gives Tehran Political Heartburn
by Barbara Slavin Posted on February 10, 2011 February 9, 2011
Judging from official propaganda in both Iran and much of the Arab world, the uprisings that toppled Tunisia's dictatorship and threaten Egypt's authoritarian regime are the direct descendent of the 1979 Islamic Revolution.
For the Iranians, that analysis is a boast; for the Arabs, it is a dire warning.
In both cases, state-run media assert that the collapse of pro-Western Arab regimes will benefit the Islamic Republic of Iran and lead to expansion of an "arc of resistance" against U.S. and Israeli interests in the region.
Certainly, there is a kernel of truth in the propaganda. Just at the point when Iran was feeling the pressure of international sanctions over its nuclear program, along come cataclysmic events that draw attention from Iran and threaten to pull down the pillars of a Middle East geopolitical order that has endured for 30-plus years.
Iran portrays the travails of U.S.-backed Arab rulers as a zero-sum game in which Washington's loss is an undiluted victory for Tehran. It links these developments to the rise of Shiite-dominated governments in Iraq and Lebanon.
However, the image exaggerates Iranian power and omits the ways in which regional trends could threaten Iranian influence and re-ignite its own domestic opposition.
"The [Iranian] government today is very ambivalent about what is happening in Egypt," says Shireen Hunter, a Middle East scholar at Georgetown University and author of a recent book, Iran's Foreign Policy in the Post-Soviet Era.
"They realize this was not a movement started by Muslim activists but a much broader voicing of frustrations and grievances. If the space opens up, a lot of jockeying will take place. Who will reap the benefits is not clear," she says.
Contrary to the Iranian narrative, the most charismatic figure to emerge from the Egyptian intifada so far is not a cleric but a slight, 30-year-old Google executive, Wael Ghonim. His emotional interview on an independent Egyptian satellite channel Monday discussing the deaths of protestors while he was detained by Egyptian authorities motivated an untold number of Egyptians to join the protests in Tahrir Square.
Developments outside Egypt are also hard to read as undiluted Iranian victories.
In Iraq, cleric Moqtada al-Sadr quietly returned to Najaf after three years in Iran Jan. 5 but left after only 15 days, reportedly the object of death threats from another Iranian-linked group. Iran remains the most influential foreign player in Iraq, with deep links to agents in a number of Shiite parties and militias, but is also resented by Iraqis – including Iraqi Shiites – for heavy-handed tactics and sweetheart deals that dump inferior Iranian goods in Iraq.
Iran's close ties to the Afghan government and to the Shiite population there have been jeopardized by a six-week slowdown in fuel deliveries. Hunter says the cutbacks – which led to anti-Iran demonstrations in Kabul and Heart – were meant to send a message that Iran should not be taken for granted. However, the result has been to sour Iran-Afghan ties.
In Lebanon, all parties are anxiously awaiting the announcement of indictments in the 2005 assassination of former prime minister Rafiq Hariri. It is likely that a U.N. Special Tribunal will accuse members of Iran's ally, Hezbollah, with negative consequences for its image – and that of Iran – among Shiite as well as Sunni Arabs.
Domestically, too, the recent events in Tunisia and Egypt could give Tehran political heartburn. The Green Movement, which has seemed near death for the past year as a result of a vicious government crackdown, has embraced the Arab uprisings as an another example of the people power that swept Iran after disputed 2009 presidential elections.
Green Movement leaders Mehdi Karroubi and Mir Hossein Musavi have asked for a permit to demonstrate in Tehran's Freedom Square on Feb. 14 "in solidarity" with the Tunisian and Egyptian pro-democracy activists.
If the government agrees, it risks reviving the Green Movement. If it refuses, it exposes itself to charges of hypocrisy.
"If they are not going to allow their own people to protest, it goes against everything they are saying and all they are doing to welcome the protests in Egypt is fake," Karroubi told the New York Times in an interview by computer video hookup Tuesday from his home in Tehran where he said he has been essentially under house arrest.
A report by the Iranian Labor News Agency on Wednesday said the Iranian judiciary had denied permission for the Feb. 14 rally, saying those who support the Egyptians and Tunisians should march on Friday. While it praises Arab protesters, the Iranian government has exploited the media preoccupation with Tunisia and Egypt by executing more than 80 people last month, including a dual Iranian-Dutch citizen, Zahra Bahrami.
Hadi Ghaemi, director of the International Campaign for Human Rights in Iran, says the Iranian government hopes such harsh actions will intimidate Iranian democracy advocates and keep them off the streets on Friday, the 32nd anniversary of the triumph of the Iranian Revolution, as well as Monday.
Given the historic rivalry between Persians and Arabs – and the stereotype that Egyptians are politically passive while Iranians are not – Ghaemi said some Iranians may be motivated to turn out just to show that they are not inferior to Arabs in courage and conviction.
"The average Iranian is going to wonder, 'if Egyptians can do it, why can't we?'" Ghaemi said.

Facing a Federal DUI - Tiftickjian Law Firm, P.C.
Facing a DUI in Colorado can be a confusing and stressful experience. Facing federal DUI charges in combination with Colorado DUI charges can compound the difficulty associated with these charges. If you are facing federal DUI charges, it is important to work with an experienced criminal defense attorney that understands the important distinctions of these types of charges. It is also important for you to understand more about those charges.
In Colorado, as in most other states, there are two distinct types of federal land: national parks and other federal property like military bases. The penalties associated with a DUI will vary depending on exactly what type of land it is. In fact, penalties may even change depending on your relationship with the federal property in question. Another important fact to remember about federal DUIs is that your refusal to submit to chemical testing can lead to significantly more severe consequences other than automatic revocation of your driving privileges. You could face denial of the right to drive on federal land as well as potential jail time since a refusal would also qualify as a federal misdemeanor.
In a state as beautiful as Colorado, national parkland is abundant. If you receive a DUI while on national park property in Colorado, the case will fall under the jurisdiction of the United States National Park Service. The National Park Service is governed by the United States Code of Federal Regulations which stipulates that convictions for driving under the influence in a national park can result in a fine of up to $5,000 and up to six months in jail. These convictions are classified as federal Class B Misdemeanors.
The United States Assimilative Crimes Act makes DUI charges and those for crimes not punishable by Congressional statutes resulting from actions taken on other federal lands – including military bases – subject to Colorado law. That means that Colorado DUI penalties are subject to enforcement should be convicted, including suspension of your license and other mandatory criminal penalties. The difference is that such cases are not tried in Colorado courts like regular DUIs would be. Instead, federal DUIs, even those subject to Colorado law, will be prosecuted in federal court.
Whether you are facing Colorado or federal DUI charges, including those related to driving under the influence of drugs, it is important to recognize the serious criminal nature of a possible conviction. Such convictions can have a significant impact on your everyday lifestyle, including your ability to drive to work or take your children to school. If you are a repeat offender, you risk additional jail time with a conviction. Working with an experienced criminal defense attorney that focuses their practice on helping clients facing similar charges is an important first step in putting forth your best defense. The knowledge and experience necessary to understand the various nuances of federal DUI cases is also extremely important. Contact the criminal defense team at Tiftickjian Law Firm to schedule a consultation where you can find out more information about the charges you are facing as well as the consequences of a potential conviction.

Le Parti vert écologiste du Mexique (, PVEM ou PVE) est un des six partis politiques mexicains qui bénéficient d'une représentation au Congrès. C'est le quatrième parti politique au Mexique par nombre de représentants au congrès de ce pays. La plupart de ces postes ont été obtenus grâce à leurs alliances stratégiques avec d'autres partis.

Le parti a été fondé en 1986 sous le nom de Partido Verde Mexicano (PVM) et son premier dirigeant était Jorge González Torres. Le PVM a participé aux élections fédérales de 1988 dans le cadre du Front national démocratique et aux élections de 1991 pour la première fois de manière indépendante, sous le nom de  (PEM). En n'obtenant pas le pourcentage de voix nécessaire pour obtenir son inscription définitive, ses partisans ont dû recommencer les tâches pour satisfaire aux exigences d'obtention d'une inscription conditionnelle. Cela a été obtenu en 1993 et dans la même année, le parti a changé son nom pour l'actuel, .

Fondements idéologiques
Ce parti a pour principes de rechercher « l'amour, la justice et la liberté pour tous les êtres qui habitent la planète terre, en incluant la végétation, les animaux et les hommes ». Le parti vert écologiste mexicain se déclare être le parti ayant permis le changement politique de la fin du , la perte du pouvoir présidentiel par le PRI. Toutefois à cause de ses positions sur la peine de mort et l'homosexualité, il a été écarté des Verts Mondiaux.

Au cours d'une interview, le candidat PVEM Gamaliel Ramirez a agressé verbalement un candidat ouvertement gay pour le poste de maire de Guadalajara et a appelé à l'établissement de lois criminelles contre l'homosexualité. Dans les jours suivants, Ramirez a publié des excuses écrites après que le parti ait exprimé son opposition à ses remarques.

Alors que le parti s'est engagé à soutenir les questions relatives aux droits des LGBT, 3 représentants se sont abstenus de voter sur la reconnaissance légale des couples homosexuels à Mexico.

Histoire récente

Lors des élections générales de 2000, le Parti vert écologiste du Mexique fait alliance avec le Parti action nationale (PAN) pour créer l'Alliance pour le changement (). C'est cette alliance entre le PAN et le PVEM qui mène Vicente Fox à la victoire lors de l'élection présidentielle. Le même jour, les Verts remportent cinq des  au Sénat du Mexique.

L'alliance éclate après une année de gouvernement de Vicente Fox. En , lors des élections de mi-mandat, et lors de diverses élections locales qui se sont tenues depuis 2000, le PVEM s'est allié plus fréquemment avec le Parti révolutionnaire institutionnel (PRI). Les Verts remportent alors dix-sept sièges  à la Chambre des députés.

Durant la même période, le soutien du parti s'est réduit en raison d'accusations de corruption, de népotisme et d'entorses à la loi électorale du Mexique. Depuis son enregistrement comme parti politique le , le PVEM a été dirigé par une seule famille : son premier président était Jorge González Torres, un ancien membre du PRI, et c'est son fils, Jorge Emilio González Martínez, un actuel sénateur surnommé le Garçon vert (). Le , la cour électorale suprême du Mexique juge que les statuts du PVEM sont contraires à la Constitution dans la mesure où ils permettent à un cercle restreint de personnes de nommer l'ensemble des candidats et des dignitaires. Peu après, le , l'Institut électoral fédéral impose une amende de plusieurs millions de dollars au PVEM pour avoir violé les règles de financement des campagnes lors de l'élection présidentielle de 2000.

Un scandale supplémentaire éclate en février 2004 lorsqu'une séquence vidéo dans laquelle on voit Jorge Emilio González Martínez se voir proposer et ne pas refuser un pot-de-vin de  de dollars est publiée. Selon cette vidéo, les fonds sont proposés par deux hommes d'affaires souhaitant obtenir plus facilement des permis de construire pour des développements immobiliers près de la station de Cancún (la municipalité de Benito Juárez dans laquelle se trouve Cancún étant gouvernée par un maire PVEM).

Le , le PVEM nomme formellement Bernardo de la Garza comme candidat à l'élection présidentielle de 2006, mais il se retire le  déjà après la conclusion d'une alliance avec le PRI. Lors des élections législatives de 2006, le parti conserve ses dix-sept sièges  à la Chambre des députés et perd un siège au Sénat, n'en conservant que quatre.
Lors de la campagne de 2009 pour l'élection des députés au congrès, le Parti vert écologiste mexicain a, dans son programme, réclamé la peine de mort pour les auteurs d'enlèvements et de séquestrations. Minoritaire, le parti a voté contre le mariage homosexuel à Mexico.

Humans Wearing Sensors Will Soon Be The Backbone of a Mobile Internet Infrastructure
Members of the public could form the backbone of powerful new mobile internet networks by carrying wearable sensors. Experts weigh-in on the novelty and potential dangers.According to researchers from Queen's University Belfast, the sensors could create new ultra high bandwidth mobile internet infrastructures and make mobile phone base stations almost obsolete.
The engineers from Queen's Institute of Electronics, Communications and Information Technology (ECIT), are working on a new project based on the rapidly developing science of body centric communications.
Social benefits are being promoted from the work touting improvements in mobile gaming and remote healthcare, along with new precision monitoring of athletes and real-time tactical training in team sports.
The researchers at ECIT are investigating how small sensors carried by members of the public, in items such as next generation smartphones, could communicate with each other to create potentially vast body-to-body networks (BBNs).
The new sensors would interact to transmit data, providing 'anytime, anywhere' mobile network connectivity.
Many researchers are skeptical regarding long-term safety from the constant bombardment of electromagnetic radiation to the human body. "This has the potential to create a number of physical illnesses from cancer to neurological disorders," said Mike Davis who specializes in electromagentic frequencies and there affect on humans.
Dr Simon Cotton, from ECIT's wireless communications research group said: "In the past few years a significant amount of research has been undertaken into antennas and systems designed to share information across the surface of the human body. Until now, however, little work has been done to address the next major challenge which is one of the last frontiers in wireless communication – how that information can be transferred efficiently to an off-body location.
"If the idea takes off, BBNs could also lead to a reduction in the number of base stations needed to service mobile phone users, particularly in areas of high population density. This could help to alleviate public perceptions of adverse health associated with current networks and be more environmentally friendly due to the much lower power levels required for operation."
"The availability of body-to-body networks may bring much greater risks to the population than benefits," said Davis. "Regardless of reduced power levels from base stations, they may ultimately place a greater strain on the healthcare system in the long-term by dramatically affecting the nervous systems of the entire population," he stated. "Humans would become the base stations."
Dr Cotton added: "Our work at Queen's involves collaborating with national and international academic, industrial and institutional experts to develop a range of models for wireless channels required for body centric communications.
"Even though the market for wearable wireless sensors is still in its infancy, it is expected to grow to more than 400 million devices annually by 2014."
Davis worries that once approved, the devices will be ushered in quickly by telecom without proper long-term testing.

Newsweek asks "Will This Phone Kill You?"
From the latest online edition of NEWSWEEK:
To get a sense of the total, complete, and utter mess that is research on the health effects of cell phones, look no further than a study of whether the ubiquitous gadgets raise the risk of brain tumors. "Interphone," organized by the World Health Organization's International Agency for Research on Cancer, was the largest (10,751 subjects, ages 30 to 59, in 13 countries), longest (10 years), most expensive (as much as $30 million), and most labor-intensive (48 scientists) study of its kind. That boded well for producing credible conclusions. Instead, Interphone found that using a cell phone decreased the risk of glioma (primary brain cancer) by 19 percent. Even in people who had used cell phones for more than 10 years there was no increased risk of brain tumors, with the exception of those who said they had yakked away for more than 1,640 hours. And the 40 percent increased risk of glioma in this group came with a caveat that is emblematic of this field: this elevated risk, the scientists warned, may be an artifact of "biases and error," not real. Things got so acrimonious among Interphone scientists that they delayed announcing the results, finally released in May, for four years.
There are many, many ways to screw up experiments on the biological effects of cell-phone radiation, and in 20 years of studies scientists seem to have used every one. The result is a confused public and nearly incoherent government policies that careen back and forth like a drunk after last call. In April, Maine legislators voted against requiring warning labels on cell phones. In May, San Francisco mandated them. A bill to be introduced in Congress would require warning labels nationwide and create a research program—but the last time the government called for studies that would "finally" answer whether cell phones pose a risk of cancer was in 1999, and since then all that's been accomplished are studies on how to do the studies. Society has never been good at making decisions in the face of scientific uncertainty (what do we do about possibly carcinogenic pesticides? About climate change?), but with cell phones the situation is even worse: it may be impossible to get definitive answers in a reasonable time about whether the radio-frequency radiation the devices emit will kill any of the 4.6 billion people who now use them.
The first big uh-oh experiment, done in Australia and published in 1997, exposed mice to the radiation typical of cell phones (about 800 megahertz to more than 2 gigahertz; this study used 900 MHz) for one hour a day for 18 months. The mice got lymphoma at 2.4 times the rate that unexposed mice did. The alarming finding set off a stampede of research. Two studies in Texas, in 1998, exposed mice to 2,450-MHz radiation for 20 hours a day, every day, for 78 weeks, finding no extra breast cancers compared with mice that weren't zapped. A 2002 study in Germany, exposing mice to 900 MHz, found no increase in breast cancer. A 2002 Australian study—900 MHz, an hour a day, five days a week, for two years—looked for an increase in lymphomas: nothing. The biggest set of animal tests—called Perform-A, it took eight years, cost $10 million, was organized by the European Commission, and announced results in 2007—found no evidence that cell radiation induces or promotes cancer in exposed mice or rats.

Congress may consider bill requiring cancer warning on cellphones
Kucinich to introduce bill for cell phone radiation research, warning label
Rep. Dennis J. Kucinich (D-OH) said Wednesday that he will introduce a bill for a federal research program on the affects of cellphone radiation on users. The bill will also call for a warning label for mobile phones, as a growing body of research around the world indicate potential links between long-term use and cancer.
The bill comes after The Post's report Tuesday outlining the growing controversy over cellphones and health. The story looks into the lobbying effort against bills across the country that would require warning and radiation data labels for cellphone retailers and San Francisco's move as the first place in the nation to require retailers to disclose radiation levels of the phones they sell.
"Some studies find links. Some don't. But studies funded by the telecommunications industry are significantly less likely to find a link between cellphones and health effects. We need a first-class research program to give us answers," Kucinich said in a statement. "Until we know for sure, a labeling law will ensure that cellphone users can decide for themselves the level of risk that they will accept"
Kucinich, who held a hearing on the topic in 2008, said much of the current research on cellphone radiation is being done outside the United States. Federal regulations on how much radiation devices can emit – such as the Specific Absorption Rate set by the Federal Communications Commission – are outdated.
His bill will call for a fresh look at regulatory standards on how much radiation a cellphone can emit. The FCC's guidelines for SAR, an absorption limit set at 1.6 watts per kilogram of tissue, were determined in 1997 and were designed around testing for a male adult model. Those standards, according to some epidemiologists, do not take into account other affects of radiation on tissue and do not take into account the fastest-growing segment of cellphone users: children.
Kucinich cited the 13-nation Interphone study (the U.S. did not participate) that found that while there is no conclusive link that long-term cellphone users were more prone to cancer, the heaviest users could be more vulnerable.
"Consumers have a right to know whether they are buying the phone with the lowest – or the highest – level of exposure to cellphone radiation. They also deserve to have up-to-date standards, which are now decades old," Kucinich said.
Kucinich said in an interview that he will introduce his bill when Congress resumes session in two weeks. He said he has several co-sponsors.
"There is a high degree of interest in this among my colleagues," he said.

San Francisco could be first city in US to mandate posting of cell phone emission levels

Supes back posting of cell phone emission levels
San Francisco moved a step closer Tuesday to becoming the first city in the nation to require that retailers post in their stores notices on the level of radiation emitted by the cell phones they offer.
The Board of Supervisors voted 10-1 to give preliminary approval to the proposal. Final approval is expected next week. Supervisor Sean Elsbernd was the lone vote in opposition. Mayor Gavin Newsom, an early proponent of the legislation, plans to sign it into law when it reaches his desk.
Cast by backers as a pro-consumer measure, the ordinance would not ban the sale of certain cell phones but would require retailers to provide the "specific absorption rate" – a measurement of radiation registered with the Federal Communications Commission – next to phones displayed in their shops. Consumers also would be notified about where they can get more educational materials.
"This is about helping people make informed choices," said Supervisor Sophie Maxwell, chief sponsor of the legislation.
But a trade group for the cell phone industry said the law could lead to confusion.
"Rather than inform, the ordinance will potentially mislead consumers with point-of-sale requirements suggesting that some phones are 'safer' than others, based on radio frequency emissions," John Walls, vice president of public affairs for the Cellular Telecommunications and Internet Association, said after the vote. "In fact, all phones sold legally in the U.S. must comply with the Federal Communication Commission's safety standards for (radio frequency) emissions."
The FCC has adopted limits for safe exposure to radiation. The measurement shows the amount of radio frequency energy people absorb in their bodies when talking on a cell phone.
The potential long-term health impacts of cell phone use, particularly on the brain, is still a matter of scientific debate.
A similar right-to-know measure, carried by state Sen. Mark Leno, D-San Francisco, died in the Legislature this year amid heavy lobbying by the cell phone industry.
Small business advocates in San Francisco also lobbied against the local labeling law, saying they didn't have an appetite for more government mandates, particularly in this tough economic climate.
"This is not about discouraging people from using their cell phones," said Newsom spokesman Tony Winnicker. "This is a modest and commonsense measure to provide greater transparency and information to consumers."
The posting requirements would be phased in, beginning in February. Violators would face fines of up to $300. City officials still need to educate retailers and figure out how the law would be enforced, when and if it is finally adopted. Hundreds of stores in San Francisco sell cell phones.
Renee Sharp, director of the California office of the Environmental Working Group, a national nonprofit research and advocacy group, lauded San Francisco for its "leadership in protecting the public's health and right to know, and we hope it's the beginning of a movement that won't stop until everybody shopping for a phone has easy access to this information."

Mobile Use Is Linked To Brain Tumors
LONG-term mobile phone users could face a higher risk of developing cancer in later life, according to a decade-long study.
The report, to be published later this year, has reportedly found that heavy mobile use is linked to brain tumours.
The survey of 12,800 people in 13 countries has been overseen by the World Health Organisation.
Preliminary results of the inquiry, which is looking at whether mobile phone exposure is linked to three types of brain tumour and a tumour of the salivary gland, have been sent to a scientific journal.
The findings are expected to put pressure on the Government – which has insisted that mobile phones are safe – to issue stronger warnings to users.

Study charts links between mobile phones, tumors
High-quality studies often show potential cancer link
Industry-funded studies most likely to show no link
By David Morgan
WASHINGTON, Oct 13 (Reuters) – Studies on whether mobile phones can cause cancer, especially brain tumors, vary widely in quality and there may be some bias in those showing the least risk, researchers reported on Tuesday.
So far it is difficult to demonstrate any link, although the best studies do suggest some association between mobile phone use and cancer, the team led by Dr. Seung-Kwon Myung of South Korea's National Cancer Center found.
Myung and colleagues at Ewha Womans University and Seoul National University Hospital in Seoul and the University of California, Berkeley, examined 23 published studies of more than 37,000 people in what is called a meta-analysis.
They found results often depended on who conducted the study and how well they controlled for bias and other errors.
"We found a large discrepancy in the association between mobile phone use and tumor risk by research group, which is confounded with the methodological quality of the research," they wrote in the Journal of Clinical Oncology.
The use of mobile and cordless phones has exploded in the past 10 years to an estimated 4.6 billion subscribers worldwide, according to the U.N. International Telecommunication Union.
Research has failed to establish any clear link between use of the devices and several kinds of cancer.
The latest study, supported in part by the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, examined cases involving brain tumors and others including tumors of the facial nerves, salivary glands and testicles as well as non-Hodgkin's lymphomas.
It found no significant association between the risk of tumors and overall use of mobile phones, including cellular and cordless phones.
MILD RISK
Myung's team said eight studies that employed "high quality" methods to blind participants against bias found a mild increased risk of tumors among people who used mobile phones compared with those who never or rarely did.
An increased risk of benign, not malignant, tumors was also found among people who used the phones for a decade or longer.
The "high quality" studies were funded by the Swedish Work Environment Fund, the Orebro Cancer Fund and the Orebro University Hospital Cancer Fund, Myung's team said.
By contrast, studies that used "low quality" methods to weed out bias found mobile users were at lower risk for tumors than people who rarely used the devices.
Myung's team suggested those results could be marred by random errors and bias because of the quality of the methods.
Funding for some of the lower-quality studies included two industry groups, the Mobile Manufacturers Forum and the Global System for Mobile Communication Association, the researchers said.
Overall, the studies examined were not broad enough to shed light on whether mobile phone use could cause tumors. Myung's team said larger studies of a type called cohort studies are needed to answer that question.
Such studies follow a group of people who share a characteristic, in this case cellphone use, and compare them with other groups over time.
The only cohort study published to date showed no association between mobile phone use and tumors. But the study, conducted in Denmark, relied on telephone subscriptions and did not evaluate actual exposure to mobile phones. (Editing by Maggie Fox and John O'Callaghan)
Reuters AlertNet – Study charts links between mobile phones, tumors
U.S. senator promises look into cellphone-cancer link
By Maggie Fox, Health and Science Editor Maggie Fox, Health And Science Editor – Mon Sep 14, 7:46 pm ET
WASHINGTON (Reuters) – Iowa senator Tom Harkin, newly empowered to investigate health matters as chairman of the Senate Health, Education, Labor and Pensions Committee, promised on Monday to probe deeply into any potential links between cellphone use and cancer.
Harkin, who took over the committee earlier this month after the death of Massachusetts Senator Edward Kennedy, said he was concerned no one has been able to prove cellphones do not cause cancer.
"I'm reminded of this nation's experience with cigarettes. Decades passed between the first warnings about smoking tobacco and the final definitive conclusion that cigarettes cause lung cancer," Harkin said.
Cell phones, used by an estimated 275 million people in the United States and 4 billion worldwide, use radio waves. Years of research have failed to establish any clear link between their use and several kinds of cancer, including brain tumors.
Recent worries have been raised by the Environmental Working Group, an activist group, and epidemiologist Devra Lee Davis of the University of Pittsburgh, who has written a book alleging the government has overlooked many potential sources of cancer.
Harkin called a hearing of the Appropriations Committee's Subcommittee on Labor, Health and Human Services, and Education to look into the questions on Monday. "I will pursue this beyond this panel, with NIH (the National Institutes of Health)," Harkin said after the hearing.
He noted the appropriations committee did not have jurisdiction over the Food and Drug Administration or the Federal Communications Commission, but said the Health committee he now chairs does.
A staffer said the senator became concerned by a report from the Environmental Working Group showing that radio wave emissions vary from one cellphone brand and model to another; as well as some reports suggesting there might be a link.
PROVING A NEGATIVE
Linda Erdreich of science and engineering firm Exponent in New York said 50 years worth of evidence had failed to show that cellular phones can cause cancer.
"This part of the spectrum is known as non-ionizing radiation," she told the hearing, explaining that this means radio waves cannot damage the DNA in cells.
But Pennsylvania Senator Arlen Specter pressed her on this, asking her repeatedly whether science had conclusively proved there was no connection. "Your statement that it is hard to prove a negative is right on," Erdreich replied.
"What comes through to me is that we just don't know what the answer is," said Specter, a cancer survivor who said he avoids white flour and sugar in case it might feed tumors.

Bethenny Frankel Opens Up About Boyfriend Dennis Shields; Admits Divorce From Jason Hoppy Still Hard
Erin Martin

Bethenny Frankel's four-year divorce may be behind her, but controversy still follows her everywhere. In the wake of the Real Housewives of New York Reunion allegations that Bethenny was dating her current boyfriend Dennis Shields prior to his split with his wife, Bethenny has taken a step back from the housewives. But she is not taking a step back from romance, despite what others may think of her relationship!
Bethenny gushes about Shields, "He's exceptionally brilliant and funny, and a very major family person." Bethenny has known Shields as "a friend" for 27 years, and shares that her daughter Bryn met him when she was a baby. She says Bryn thinks "he's very silly and fun and nice."
In an interview with US Weekly, Bethenny explains that she's dated a total of two people since her split with ex-husband Jason Hoppy. Since that time – and maybe because of it – she says that integrity and kindness are the primary character traits she now looks for in a partner. "It's so simple, really. Integrity and kindness now are so much more important than I ever even realized, because I didn't realize how many people don't have it. I think I've been pretty sheltered in my emotional estimation of people. I think I've gotten pretty surprised."
Bethenny and Hoppy's four-year divorce from hell is something she still isn't able to share details about, for legal reasons. Suffice to say: The divorce looked about as bad as it gets in terms of contentious parties, financial war, and parenting strife.
She shares that the most painful part of the divorce revolved around protecting her daughter, Bryn. "Anything that's unnecessarily negative for my daughter is really challenging for me," admits Bethenny. "You kind of just have to look inside and find your strength, and this has been no different. It's just been way more personal. It's hard. It's definitely hard."
As for now, Bethenny claims "I'm happy, but I'm most happy that I don't have to depend on anyone else."
And while she's not publicly decrying marriage anymore, Bethenny says she's got no plans to walk down the aisle anytime soon. "I really don't know. I don't feel ready for that right now. There's no rush for anything."
RELATED: Despite Terrible Things Bethenny Said About Her, Luann De Lesseps Hopes To Reconcile Their Friendship
In a possible reference to costar Luann de Lesseps, who literally could not stop uttering the words I'M GETTING MARRIED! for one second this season, Bethenny asserts, "I'm not looking to have helicopters flying over my house in some big white poofy dress, showing everybody how 'great' my life is or anything like that."
Indeed, Bethenny has even been hinting that she may not want to share any of her life on future seasons of RHONY, claiming she's not sure if she's coming back!
Post-reunion, Bethenny was feeling pretty bitter about her integrity being questioned. In August, she shared with ET that "You have 50 percent of the cast that has a whole taboo, police line, 'do not cross' section of their life that is not discussed on camera and never has been. For legal issues and liability issues, Bravo does not need to bring it up and it's a difficult line to ride, and that may be why I don't come back."
"I finally just got to the place where everything is settled," concludes Bethenny. "Why start to throw it up in the air again?"

Pep Honoured To Face Man United
47 Apr 1, 2014 - 01:35 pm
By Soccer Laduma
Bayern Munich boss, Pep Guardiola, says he is honoured to face Manchester United, and jokes about receiving a contract offer from Sir Alex Ferguson.
Despite the English champion's downturn, Guardiola insists he is still an honour to face a club of United's stature.
The Bavarians are trying to be the first team to defend the Champions League title since the competitions new format in 1992, but the Spaniard is wary of putting too much pressure on his side.
"To try to achieve the next round against a team like Manchester United is a real honour," he said.
"The Champions League is not the most important title - the domestic league is - but it is the most prestigious.
"Now we are eight teams in the quarter-finals and every trainer and every player wants to win it - but it is not easy.
"We are going to try, you can be sure of that, but Bayern Munich have only won it twice since 1976, when Franz Beckenbauer led his team."
Guardiola also revealed that he had dinner with Sir Alex Ferguson when the former United manager searched for his successor.
He confirmed his admiration for and friendship with Ferguson, who retired from football management after 27 years, two Champions Leagues, 13 Premier League titles and five FA Cups with United.
"Sir Alex invited me to a superb restaurant and we had a very good time," Guardiola added.
"It was friendly and, like always with me and since I started as a coach, he was so gentle and we spent a very good time together."
Guardiola then joked: "My English is not too good and sometimes he was probably speaking too quickly for me to understand - maybe that's why I didn't understand if I received an offer or not."
How would Manchester United perform if Sir Alex Ferguson had chosen Pep Guardiola instead of David Moyes? Have your say in the comment section below.

Peter Gabrian, auch Peter K. (= Karl) Gabrian (* 1. Mai 1922 in Offenbach; † 24. Dezember 2015 in Bad Bodendorf) war ein deutscher Künstler. Sein Arbeitsgebiet war hauptsächlich die Malerei, seine bevorzugten Genres waren die Landschaft und das Porträt.

Leben
Nach Rückkehr und schwerer Verwundung im Winterkrieg in Finnisch-Lappland eignete sich Gabrian von 1949 bis 1951 an der Werbefachschule der Universität Bonn die Grundlagen für eine Existenz als freischaffender Künstler an. Sein Schaffenszentrum war von den 1950er bis in die 1970er Jahre das Atelierhaus in Holzlar-Heidebergen.

Peter Gabrian war seit 1960 im Bundesverband Bildender Künstlerinnen und Künstler (BBK). Er organisierte im Rahmen dieser Künstlerorganisation in den Jahren 1980 bis 1984 als Delegationsleiter internationale Künstler-Begegnungs-Seminare in Kuopio in Finnland, so den Juho-Rissanen-Bildkunstsommer. Bis 1993 folgten weitere internationale Künstlerworkshops, bei denen der deutsch-finnische Kulturaustausch und die Begegnung von Künstlern aus verschiedenen europäischen Ländern im Zentrum standen.

Gabrian war Vater von vier Kindern. Er lebte und arbeitete zuletzt in Bad Neuenahr-Ahrweiler. Im hohen Alter erhielt er für seine Verdienste um den Kulturaustausch zwischen Deutschland und Finnland eine "Künstlerpension" des Bundespräsidenten.

Werk
Wegen seiner künstlerischen Leidenschaft für Lappland, die Gabrian in unzähligen, teils großformatigen Landschaftsgemälden umsetzte, bezeichnete ihn Frank Günter Zehnder, der ehemalige Direktor des Rheinischen Landesmuseums Bonn, als den Maler der Mitternachtssonne.

Am 28. Mai 1993 wurde Gabrian anlässlich seiner Ausstellung in den Spittelkolonnaden in Berlin vom Botschafter der Republik Finnland Kai Helenius im Auftrag des Finnischen Ministerpräsidenten das "Ritterkreuz des Ordens der Finnischen Weißen Rose" überreicht.

In den letzten Jahren widmet sich Gabrian verstärkt der Aquarelltechnik. So entstand in seiner heimatlichen Region, der Eifel, eine größere Serie von Bildern, die den blühenden Ginster im Frühling zeigt. Er gab ihr den Namen "Eifelgold".

Peter Gabrian betätigte sich auch als Porträtmaler. So malte er die Politiker Kurt Beck und Andrea Nahles.

Ausstellungen (Auswahl)
Bis 2003 hatte Gabrian 85 Einzelausstellungen in Deutschland, Finnland und Polen. Außerdem war er mit Werken an etwa 120 Gruppenausstellungen beteiligt.

 1978 Helsinki, "Kuvia Lapista – Lappland in Bildern"
 1985 Castrop-Rauxel, Rathaus-Galerie "Lappland"
 1986 Varkaus, "4 Künstler aus Bonn"
 1990 Alvar Aalto-Bibliothek, Rovaniemi
 1991 Kreishaus Siegburg, "Jenseits des Polarkreises"
 1991 Kulturzentrum Ehemalige Synagoge Ahrweiler "Lappland"
 1993 Spittelkolonnaden, Berlin, "Mitternachtssonne"
 2002 Höllturm-Galerie, Radolfzell, "Ein Maler sieht Lappland"
 2003 Bad Neuenahr-Ahrweiler, "Kontraste: Eifelgold – Lappland"
 2004 Verbandsgemeinde Brohltahl, "Eifelgold – Aquarelle"

Werke (Auswahl)
Gemälde von Gabrian befinden sich in vielen öffentlichen Sammlungen, unter anderem in der Kunstsammlung des Deutschen Bundestags in Berlin, im Kunstmuseum Kuopio, im Kunstmuseum Danzig/Polen, in der Bank für Gemeinwirtschaft (BfG) Düsseldorf und in der Volks- und Raiffeisenbank Bonn.

Former IBF and WBC bantamweight champion Susie "Q" Ramadan 27-2 (12) has a word of warning for the current world titleholders: take me on at your peril.
The veteran IBF #1, WBA #3 and WBC #5 super flyweight contender is gunning for another world title shot in the 115-pound weight class. Victory will make Ramadan the first Australian three-time world champion since International Boxing Hall of Fame inductee Jeff Fenech.
"I am here to put the division on notice," says Ramadan, who returns to action on August 31 at the Croatian Club in Footscray against an opponent to be named.
Ramadan's career has had its ups and downs with promotional and managerial disputes sidelining her for periods of time, but with the backing of trainer and promoter Sam Labruna she is finally in a position to realise her potential.
"I am hungry for the opportunity to fight for a world title again and it's showing in the gym," says Ramadan. "I am as fit as I've ever been and I consistently spar bigger, stronger blokes and more than hold my own.


The Canadian Historical Arms Museum was founded in 2010 and rebranded to The National Historical Arms Museum (NHAM) in 2017. NHAM was created to allow for the preservation and protection of small arms artifacts and other historically significant accoutrements so that future generations can appreciate and understand these valuable, irreplaceable elements of Canadian and global history.
These artifacts have played a large role in the history of mankind. Since the dawn of time, people have needed tools to provide their families and tribes with food, as well as with the means to defend their loved ones from predators and, unfortunately, other humans. Throughout the centuries these tools have evolved tremendously through improved technology and research. Amongst the goals of the museum is the aim to provide education on the evolution of these artifacts and how they have helped shape the world into what it is today, as well as additional focus on the contributions made by Canadian small arms manufacturers.
At this time, NHAM is a display museum. We are in the process of fundraising to create a world-class physical museum utilizing a museum grade collection that will help visitors to understand the historic evolution, role, and impact of small arms around the world. Currently, the only time the public can view museum artifacts is at events and the museum virtual gallery.
