30 Years of Emergency Law in Egypt, and Counting
Sharif Abdel Kouddous
On October 6, 1981, a state of emergency was declared in Egypt following the assassination of President Anwar El Sadat. His successor, Hosni Mubarak, kept the emergency law in place for the next 30 years, using it to suppress dissent, quash opposition and give rise to a sprawling domestic security apparatus that committed rampant human rights abuses and nurtured a culture of government corruption, all for the sole purpose of keeping his regime in power.
Today, Mubarak is behind bars, forced out of office in a popular revolution that was driven in large part by contempt for the draconian law and the police state it helped spawn. Yet, eight months after the revolution began, Egypt is still under a state of emergency. In fact, its scope has been broadened by the Supreme Council of Armed Forces that came to power following Mubarak's ouster.
On September 10, the military council announced it would fully enforce the emergency law and added to it a new list of offenses, including "aggression against the freedom to work, sabotaging factories and holding up transport, blocking roads and deliberately publishing false news, statements or rumors."
"These changes are a major threat to the rights to freedom of expression, association and assembly, and the right to strike," says Philip Luther, Amnesty International's deputy director for the Middle East and North Africa. "We are looking at the most serious erosion of human rights in Egypt since Mubarak stepped down."
The military council's emergency law decree was made in the wake of the storming of the Israeli embassy in Giza a day earlier, when protesters managed to break into one of the embassy's office floors as hundreds of police and army forces stationed around the corner did nothing to stop them. It was only after protesters attacked the local security headquarters that central security forces launched a crackdown that resulted in three people killed, over 100 arrested and more than 1,000 wounded.
Those arrested under the emergency law are tried before special courts known as (Emergency) Supreme State Security Courts, which, like military courts, violate the right to a fair trial and deny defendants the right to appeal, say human rights activists. The law also gives security forces virtually unrestrained powers of search, arrest and detention.
A few days later, Adel al-Morsy, the head of the Military Judicial Authority, announced that the emergency law would remain in effect until June 2012. The decision contravenes the military council's vow in a constitutional declaration passed last March to abolish the state of emergency by September 30. As it stands, the post-revolutionary parliamentary elections scheduled to begin in November will take place under the same state of emergency that Egyptians have been subject to for the past three decades.
The military council's decisions have sparked outrage and demonstrations in defiance of the law. Last Monday, over a thousand protesters gathered in Tahrir Square—the iconic epicenter of the revolution—and marched to the ministerial cabinet headquarters in protest. Hundreds of people also gathered at the Journalists' Syndicate in downtown Cairo on two separate occasions to demonstrate against the law and to hear testimony from family members of detainees arrested and jailed in military courts and from human rights attorneys and activists about the legal implications of the ongoing state of emergency.
Among those speaking out at the Journalists' Syndicate protests were reporters and workers from Al Jazeera Mubasher Misr (Al Jazeera Live Egypt), an affiliate of the Al Jazeera satellite network which was launched in the aftermath of the 18-day uprising. Al Jazeera Mubasher Misr had become known for its live and extensive coverage of street protests in Egypt in the post-Mubarak transitional period.
Two days after the Israeli embassy incident, officers from the public broadcasting agency had raided the Giza office of Al Jazeera Mubasher Misr and shut it down. Officials seized broadcasting equipment and arrested the station's chief engineer, detaining him overnight. They claimed that neighbors had filed a complaint and that the station had been broadcasting without a license. A separate lawsuit had also been filed accusing the channel of "sowing dissent" and "calling for demonstrations."
"It makes us really afraid. It makes us feel unhappy and uneasy," says Ayman Gaballah, the managing director of Al Jazeera Mubasher. He says the channel filed for a broadcasting license in April and though they repeatedly inquired about the paperwork at the government broadcasting agency, they were assured the license would be granted and were told they could continue broadcasting in the interim. "We are afraid that this is a way of manipulating us to keep us always under pressure. So the moment they are not satisfied they can come in with a heavy hand and close our office," Gaballah says.
The day after the protest, Gaballah, along with a number of activists and renowned human rights lawyer Ahmed Seif El-Islam, went to the government press center office and submitted additional paperwork to obtain their broadcast license. They were told they would hear back within two weeks.
Meanwhile, street protests, labor strikes and criticism of the military council in the media continue on a daily basis in defiance of the military council's threats to fully enforce the emergency law. After 30 years, Egyptians are demanding to live under rule of law, not emergency.

One of my favorite details about this dress is the ruffled skirt! It feels so comfortable and carefree to wear.
Although not a bad fit for my first try, I see that I need to size down to an XS bodice, grading out to a size small at the waist. However, it is still wearable. There is a lot of ease in this dress.
I covered my buttons to match the fabric.
Another cute, but simple-to-make detail that I like is the split seam on the shoulder.
The dress is easy to make, but the challis didn't want to behave when I was making narrow hems at the arm. I disliked it so much that I just cut them off, finished the edges again, and turned them up 1/2". The sleeves seemed a bit long on me anyway, so it was a quick and easy solution. I don't have a lot of patience when it comes to picking my seams, and with this being challis fabric, that would have been easy for me to rip a hole into. Cutting off my narrow hems was a safer solution.
I also made two tops for one of my girls with McCalls 6951, view A. I love using light weight cotton fabrics for these. Fashion Fabrics is my go-to place for inexpensive cotton lawn.
Even with a sheer fabric, it still makes a cute top to wear over camisoles.
Be aware that if you decide to make view B, check the length of the blouse. I cut this view out only to discover that it was going to look to short. You may need to add a couple of inches to the length. However, view A seemed perfect as is.
I wore blouses exactly like those many moons ago. Still love the style.
Me too Pam! My family has all been commenting to me how they can remember wearing that style way back when. LOL It's understandable that styles will come and go because how many ways can a top be created? We just shuffle them around through the decades.
Cute dress! You know I love that pattern :). It's super easy to wear. In fact, you've made me think I need another!
Thanks Liza Jane! I was so excited when I found out you made this too and it looked so lovely on you. I tried this pattern again in a cotton lawn, but it had such a different look. I definitely prefer it in soft drapey fabrics.
This is such a beautiful floaty dress for those hot summer days just around the corner. The girls blouses are so pretty too! I wish K would let me sew some of those for her.

Leverage Lambda Expressions in Your Methods
Integrating lambda expressions into your methods is easy. The trick is in recognizing when to use them. And that means understanding when the strategy and factory method patterns are going to make your applications better.
Do You Know the Answers to These Hanselman Questions?
Back when he had a job, Peter used to hire developers. When he did, there were three questions he got from Scott Hanselman's blog, way back at the beginning of the .NET Framework that he's still asking today.
It's Not the Names that Matter
As you work with other developers (and seek advice from experts) you need to make sure you're discussing what matters rather than arguing about terminology.
With ASP.NET MVC and Data Transfer Objects, The Bigger the Better
Create the best object for moving data from your Controller to your View.
Reduce Trips to the Database Service with EF.E's Future Queries
One way to slow down your application is to make multiple trips to the database. Here's a way to cut those trips in half (at least) and it has to do with the EntityFramework.Extended library.
Making Your Data Updates and Deletes More Efficient
By adding one open source library to your application (and adding two methods to your LINQ statements) you can cut the time spent on database updates and deletes in half.
A First Look at Visual Studio Code
If you're looking for a lean, mean, cross-platform, desktop code editor then Visual Studio Code might be just your cup of tea. However, if you're used to the level of functionality you get with Visual Studio, it's important to set your expectations appropriately.
Potentially Save a Trip to the Database with Updates in Entity Framework
Here's a tip about how to exploit Entity Framework's change tracking mechanism to -- possibly -- eliminate a trip to the database when you update an item. But, without some additional code, you probably can't use it.
Integrating SQL Server Reporting Services Reports and ASP.NET MVC
There are so many ways to integrate an SSRS report into your page that the biggest problem you'll face is deciding which one to use. Peter runs through all the solutions he can think of, including those cases where you want to download the report as a file.
The Best Advice You'll Get on ASP.NET MVC Routing
Here are three rules for defining ASP.NET MVC routes that you can actually understand.
Run Additional Test Code with SpecFlow 2 Hooks
You know how to run business-readable tests. Let's continue with a few more hooks.
By Jason Roberts
Who's in Charge Now? UI Control and the Interface Segregation Principle
If you adopt the Interface Segregation principle, then you can eliminate (or, at least, control) one of the most annoying problems in creating very useful objects. But following that principle through to its conclusion also inverts the traditional hierarchy of the development team.
It's OK To Be Lazy And Defer Creating Objects Until You Need Them
You can write some complicated code to ensure that you don't create any object until you absolutely need it. Or you can use the Lazy object...at least some of the time.
Retain State by Serializing to Disk
If you're looking for an easy way to save the user's current state, the simplest solution is use the Serialize and Deserialize method.
Stepping Through Binding Styles Using SpecFlow 2
SpecFlow offers a number of binding styles for bridging business-readable tests with test-automation code.

Philadelphia Chamber Music Society Offers A World of Music
Curtis Institute Showcases Talent Internationally With "Curtis on Tour"
Kris Walski, for GPA -- In today's digital world, there are many ways to access music for free or at most, a nominal fee. These days, live traditional and classical music may seem too pricey a pursuit for the average music lover.
It's true that prices for good seats at a renowned concert can easily reach over a hundred dollars. However, there is something priceless about taking in a live performance, seeing how the music we hear in movies or on our gadgets sounds when it is performed just a few feet away.
This is the appeal of the Philadelphia Chamber Music Society (PCMS) and why they invest so much to make world-renowned music from both domestic and international artists accessible to a wider public.
Founded in 1986 with the intent to create a forum for chamber music, the PCMS has since offered countless concerts and musical programs at affordable prices. It has also strengthened the presence of Philadelphia on the cultural and musical world stage.
"Out of the over 60 concerts it performs annually, about one third are from international artists and another third from artists who were born or grew up abroad," says Erik Petersons, Outreach Director for PCMS.
Looking at a brochure of their current season, the diversity of geographical and instrumental representation is nothing short of astounding. Artists from countries such as Germany, Israel, Japan, Georgia and Macau are a few examples of the many.
Attendance to PCMS concerts has steadily grown over the past seven or so years since the country's economic recession and the demand for quality performances isn't going anywhere. There is something relaxing and soothing about classical music. It can bring out various feelings and emotions of the human experience and spur ideas and creativity.
As Albert Einstein, the well known scientist and overlooked violinist, once said, "I live my daydreams in music."

Global Philadelphia and Temple University Celebrate SDG 10 Reduced Inequalities

Earlier this month, Global Philadelphia and Temple University celebrated the unveiling of a piece of public art supporting Sustainable Development Goals (SDG) 10: Reduced Inequalities. The event was held at Temple's Science Education and Research Center (SERC), which is just around the corner from where the artwork is mounted on Anderson Hall. Through the SDG public art campaign, Temple's Institutional Diversity, Equity, Advocacy, and Leadership (IDEAL) initiative received a $3,000 grant from the Office of International Affairs (OIA).
A Global Conversation with John Fry


In 1917 an important exhibition of works made by soldiers at the front was organised in Paris, at the museum " Jeu de Paume ". The works which were sent in had to pass military censorship. A jury in Paris decided which soldier-artist qualified to exhibit his works. Joseph Lesage exhibited 12 works which were all sold. In connection with this exhibition a poster-contest was organised. 329 posters were submitted to the jury. The poster of Joseph Lesage won a second prize.
" A la recherche d'un motif ".
("Looking for a motive ").
This text would never have been accepted by the censorship. When making this drawing Joseph Lesage had just finished two months of frontline-duty near Verdun.

Treasury acts to change unfair law around logbook loans
The Law Commission today welcomed the decision by Ministers to close a legal loophole which means buyers of second-hand vehicles are at risk of having them repossessed due to unfair laws around logbook loans.
Logbook loans are a way for borrowers to use their car or van as security for a loan and over the last 10 years their use has rocketed – but if payments are missed borrowers can face swift repossession.
Those who buy second hand in good faith can also unexpectedly find themselves losing the vehicle or having to pay off somebody else's loan.
Following recommendations by the Law Commission in September 2016, Economic Secretary to the Treasury Simon Kirby has confirmed planned changes to the law to protect buyers and borrowers alike.
Stephen Lewis, Law Commissioner for Commercial and Common Law, said:
"This is great news for car-buyers. Every year many were unwittingly purchasing second hand-vehicles at risk of repossession due to unfair log book loans.
"The current law doesn't give them the protection they deserve and our recommendations for changes are about putting people back in the driving seat when it comes to logbook loans.
"I'm pleased that the Treasury has agreed and acted swiftly to put the brake on this out of date legislation. We're drafting a bill which we hope will be introduced into Parliament next autumn to change the law by 2019."
Putting the brake on unfair logbook loans
The use of bills of sale, where people can use goods they own as security while retaining possession of those goods, has grown from under 3,000 in 2001 to over 37,000 in 2015. They are mostly used for logbook loans.
The Law Commission recommended changes that would make this form of lending fairer for borrowers and offer greater protection to people buying second-hand vehicles that are still subject to logbook loans.
Under the Commission's recommended reforms, borrowers and buyers would be given similar protections to those offered by hire-purchase law:
Borrowers would have more time to pay – a borrower who is temporarily unable to pay but has already repaid more than one third of the loan could stop lenders repossessing the vehicle without a court order.
Borrowers could end the agreement – a borrower who cannot make any more payments would have the right to hand the car back to the lender and not be liable for the remainder of the loan.
Buyers of second-hand vehicles would be protected – where a private individual buys a vehicle in good faith and without knowing that it is subject to a logbook loan, they would become the owner of the vehicle and would not be liable for the loan.
In relation to goods other than vehicles, the new Goods Mortgages Act will also modernise the High Court registration system.
This would minimise the cost and difficulty of raising money against valuable goods and business assets to help businesses suffering from temporary cash flow problems access finance.
It will also allow individuals to raise cash against their valuable items, such as paintings, watches and antiques while remaining in possession and being able to use or lend the items to galleries or collectors.
The Law Commission is a non-political independent body, set up by Parliament in 1965 to keep all the law of England and Wales under review, and to recommend reform where it is needed.
The Law Commission was asked by HM Treasury in September 2014 to examine the Bills of Sale Acts and consider how they could be reformed. The Terms of Reference agreed with HM Treasury are available in the Commission's report, Bills of Sale, p2.
Currently, logbook loans represent 90% of bills of sale.
Logbook loans are regulated by the Bills of Sale Act 1878 and the Bills of Sale Act 1882.

IntLawGrrls! 10th Birthday Conference
Opening events Thursday, March 2, 2017
Research forum Friday, March 3, 2017
Dean Rusk International Law Center
Athens, Georgia USA
Since its founding a decade ago, IntLawGrrls: voices on international law, policy, practice has grown into the premier intlawblog written primarily by women – several hundred of them, plus a few men.
To help celebrate, we at the Dean Rusk International Law Center, University of Georgia School of Law, are delighted to host, at our Athens, Georgia campus, "IntLawGrrls! 10th Birthday Conference," on March 2 and 3, 2017. Other cosponsors of this IntLawGrrls initiative include the American Society of International Law, ASIL's Women in International Law Interest Group, the Planethood Foundation, and Georgia Law's chapter of the International Law Students Association. The full program is here.
IntLawGrrls débuted on exactly 10 years earlier, on March 3, 2007. A post by founder Diane Marie Amann, who serves as Georgia Law's Associate Dean for International Programs & Strategic Initiatives and Emily & Ernest Woodruff Chair in International Law, began:
"With great pride and joy we announce the birth, on this 3d day of the 3d month – Girls' Day in Japan – of the newest arrival in the blogosphere. IntLawGrrls joins a world where cultures, ideas, and markets commingle, where humanity reveals both its best promise and its worst underside. It is a world where women act, as prime ministers or ministers of state, as lawmakers, as judges, and as advocates, in international organizations and in society at large. It is our hope through IntLawGrrls to strengthen our voices as we continue to teach and work in international law, policy, practice."
The next decade saw thousands of pathbreaking posts (available here and here) and, at least as important, the growth of a community of scholars and practitioners. Everyone in that community is welcome to contribute to the research forum that will anchor our 2-day conference (part of the law school's series of Georgia Women in Law Lead – Georgia WILL – events) by presenting on an issue within inclusive scope of our blog.

The Distinguished Professorial Address: Professor Sylvia Walby -"Gender and the crisis", March 30th
Author Faculty of Business and Law | Posted on 9 March 2017
The Bristol Business School invites you to Professor Sylvia Walby's Distinguished Professorial Address at UWE Bristol on Thursday 30 March. Register your place here.
Sylvia Walby OBE is Distinguished Professor of Sociology, UNESCO Chair of Gender Research, and Director of the Violence and Society UNESCO Centre at Lancaster University. She is a Fellow of the Academy of Social Sciences, and of the RSA.
She was the founding President of the European Sociological Association; and has been President of Research Committee 02 Economy and Society of the International Sociological Association. She has served on the sub-panel for Sociology for HEFECE REF2014, and as a non-executive director of the UK National Commission for UNESCO.
Her research has been funded by the Economic and Social Research Council, the European Commission, European Parliament, European Institute for Gender Equality, Council of Europe, ESRC, and the UN. Books on 'society' include: Crisis (Polity 2015); The Future of Feminism (Polity 2011); and Globalization and Inequalities: Complexity and Contested Modernities (Sage 2009). Books on 'violence' include: The Concept and Measurement of Violence against Women and Men (Policy Press 2017), and Stopping Rape: Towards a Comprehensive Policy (Policy Press 2015).
Her address will look at answering the question "Is the mid-twentieth century European nightmare, in which financial crisis led to economic recession, fascism and violence, being repeated today?"
"What constitutes crisis is contested. The construction of government deficits as if they entailed fiscal crisis to be treated as a state of exception is contested. The cascading of crisis from one institutional domain to another is also contested, since renewed democratic forces potentially provide sites of resilience and resistance.
The significance of gender relations in this democratic resistance is often underestimated. How is the crisis restructuring the gender regime? The complex inequalities on which the financial crisis draws, and which the development of global finance exacerbates, intersect in diverse ways. The paper argues for a gendered conceptualisation of the crisis, not as 'refamilialisation' in which women are pushed out of production back into reproduction, but rather as a critical turning point in the trajectory of the public gender regime from a more social democratic form to a more neoliberal form.
The paper offers analyses of gendered practices of the stages of the crisis. It addresses whether the crisis – erupting in finance in 2007, and cascading through the economy, the fiscal, and the political – is now leading to an increase in violence. The theorisation of crisis is developed using complexity science, gender theory, and a reworking of the concept of social system."
The event is free to attend. Register your place here.

Q: Instantly getting Write Failed: Broken Pipe with SSH to an embedded system As said above, when I try to SSH into my embedded system (a De0-Nano-SoC FPGA development board running Angström with Kernel 4.1) I get a "Write Failed: Broken Pipe"-Error and get disconnected. I read that this is often linked to network problems and timeouts, but in my case it's happening instantly, so it can't be a timeout-issue (can it?).
I'm searching for other solutions to this problem or other problems that might cause this error message.
Update: The other direction (SSH from embedded to host PC) works flawlessly!
Here's the output from tcpdump | grep cyclone5, juggernaut is the host PC, cyclone5 the embedded device and fritz.box is my router:

A: Doesn't look like network issue, there is a communication flow in tcpdump. Looks like ssh server drops connection. Sometimes some simplified ssh servers are running on embedded systems to save time/space or something.
1) Look into logs on ssh server side, i.e. embedded device. There should be something.
2) Enable verbose in ssh client, typically ssh -vvv.

A: I think your issue is network related 99% but, just to consider 1%...
Is your OS running on flash memory?
I had similar issues when working on usb and sdcard based installations. Sometimes system got unstable, remounted RO and one of first symptoms was unsuccesful ssh connection, with same error output. When i had the luck to keep an alive existing ssh session i could almost normally work on my box, including sshing other servers.
