Refugees can be sent to persecution under Hong Kong law
Post Date: Mar 8th, 2013 | Categories: Advocacy, Media | COMMENT
Joyce Man writes for South China Morning Post on 8 March 2013
The principle of not sending someone to a place where they may be persecuted has never been part of Hong Kong law, the government said yesterday. Benjamin Yu SC was speaking on behalf of the Immigration Department and the secretary for security at the Court of Final Appeal, where three African men were making a final bid to change how applications for refugee status are handled in the territory. Hong Kong is not a signatory of the United Nations Convention Relating to the Status of Refugees. The government does not take applications for refugee status, but instead refers them to the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees.
When the UNHCR finds in favour of someone claiming refugee status, the government can allow them to stay pending resettlement. But this would be on humanitarian grounds, rather than out of any obligation. "Non-refoulement," Yu said, referring to the principle, "has never been part of the common law in Hong Kong." Vaughan Lowe QC, also for the government, said even if the court found non-refoulement was a rule in Hong Kong, it would be up to the government to decide how to meet the obligation. He said there was "no reason" why the UNHCR should not handle refugee claims in Hong Kong. The appellants – from the Democratic Republic of Congo and the Republic of Congo – had their applications for refugee status and subsequent appeals rejected by the UNHCR.
They filed applications for judicial review but lost those, as well as appeals against those decisions. They argue the UNHCR screening process is inadequate and that its decisions are not open to judicial scrutiny. Hong Kong, they say, must make its own decision regarding their claims in an informed, fair and accountable manner. Refugee support workers are waiting anxiously for the court's ruling. "We are definitely watching it closely," said Cosmo Beatson, executive director of refugee support group Vision First. "The case is vitally important." The case was heard before Mr Justices Patrick Chan Siu-oi, Roberto Ribeiro, Robert Tang Ching, Kemal Bokhary and Anthony Mason.
Article 5. "No one shall be subjected to torture or to cruel, inhuman or degrading treatment or punishment."

One of the most pernicious clauses which nursing homes put into their admission agreements are arbitration provisions. The arbitration agreement takes away the rights of the nursing home resident or her family to have a judge or jury decide any legal claim against the nursing home. This would include claims for elder abuse, neglect, and negligence which cause personal injury or even death. Instead, a private arbitrator must hear the claim. Medicare has recognized the unfairness of these agreements and has instituted new regulations to prohibit nursing homes from compelling residents to sign arbitration agreements.
In the past, nursing homes would typically have arbitration agreements signed by the resident or a family member before the person was admitted to the facility. In California, it has been the law that residents could not be required to sign such agreements as a prerequisite to admission. California Health & Safety Code§ 1599.81, Title 22 California Code of Regulations § 73518, however, many unsuspecting people signed such agreements anyway because of the way they were presented to them by the nursing home administrator. Often, these agreements were sold as an economical and quick way to resolve disputes with the nursing home should problems arising. In reality, the agreements were taking away people's constitutional right to a jury trial, and people did not realize the drawbacks of the arbitration process until it was too late. Finally, this practice will be stopped.
You may be thinking that arbitration is a good thing and a viable alternative to the traditional court system. Nothing could be further from the truth.
Economically, an arbitration is more costly. In either case, you will probably need a lawyer to represent you. Therefore, there is no savings in terms of attorneys fees. However, the costs of going to arbitration are often much higher because the parties must pay for the time of a private arbitrator. These arbitrators bill their time at $500 per hour and up. In a complex, nursing home abuse case the arbitration time could easily exceed 100 hours, resulting in arbitration fees of over $50,000.00. These exorbitant fees are not incurred when your case is heard by a judge or jury.
Arbitrations take longer. There are no time deadlines for sending a case to arbitration. Accordingly, it is a common technique for insurance companies that are defending nursing homes to drag the case out as long as possible. The strategy is designed to wear down the resident and their family in the hopes that the case is dropped, or even more cynically, hope that the resident who is usually elderly, passes away before the case can proceed to a hearing. In the court system however, the defendants cannot delay coming to justice in a timely manner. California, elders (those over the age of 70) have a priority to have their case heard before others They can have their case heard within 120 days from the date which the court recognizes the party's right to the priority (Civil Code of Procedure § 36 (a)).
With arbitration, you give up your right to a jury trial, and your right to have your case heard by your peers. Instead, the hired arbitrators can be biased against your case before they have heard any evidence. The financial reality of the situation is that the insurance companies will use the same arbitrators or arbitration companies over and over in their disputes. This generates huge fees for the arbitrators. The individual plaintiff will most likely never use the arbitration process again. So there is an inherent bias in the process, in that the person deciding the case is consistently being paid large sums of money by one side. Unfortunately, this can influence the way cases are decided.
Arbitration clauses are proliferating in the consumer setting as more and more consumers are being denied the right to a jury trial by banks, credit card companies, etc. (See Arbitration Everywhere, Stacking the Deck of Justice). As an Alameda nursing home attorney, I am glad to see that Medicare is taking steps to prohibit the use of these pre-admission arbitration clauses in nursing home settings. California nursing home residents and their families will be better off for it.

Q: maven wsimport throwing security exception with PKIX path building failed: I have an ejb which is annotated with @Webserivce. Everything in glassfish4.
The wsdl is generated correctly, soapUi can also send requests.
But when I try to generate client artifacts using jax ws maven plugin  which is configured as following.

I get  sun.security.validator.ValidatorException: PKIX path building failed:
So I need to know

*

*How can I tell jax ws plugin to use the certificates ?

*How can I get the certificates, currently the webservice and the client are both on localhost for development purpose

*How can I tell glassfish4 not to use https and use http when exposing the webservice ?

A: Just noticed. Glassfish generates both http and https wsdl locations. So the http one works

Opposition in focus: Forest Green Rovers
The low-down on tomorrow's opponents
Man in the Lion Mask
@lionmaskpod
Exeter City will be hoping to make it to the third round of the FA Cup this weekend as they square off against Forest Green Rovers away from home in what will be an exciting second round tie. Man behind the Mask, Dan Gottschalk takes a look at City's opponents.
City have already visited Mark Cooper's side in the league this season, coming away in September with a comprehensive 3-1 win over their newly promoted rivals. The Grecians will be hoping for a repeat performance tomorrow and secure their spot in the third round draw on Monday night.
Forest Green's History
Despite being in their debut season in the Football League, Forest Green Rovers have a history trailing all the way back to 1889. Hailing from Nailsworth in Gloucestershire, the 'Green Army' played at their Lawn ground from being founded all the way up to 2006.
Forest Green Rovers have reached the third round of the FA Cup twice before, making back to back appearances in the 2008/9 and the 2009/10 seasons, having only made their debut in the 1st round of the competition in the 1999/2000 season.
The club is perhaps more famous for its recent history. Since local entrepreneur and Ecotricity owner Dale Vince became the majority shareholder of the club in 2010, FGR have become famous for their commitment to sustainability and in October 2015, became the world's first all vegan football club.
Season in Focus
Forest Green Rovers are currently enjoying their first season of being in the Football League in their history after gaining promotion from the National League via the play-offs last season.
After a rough start to the season, the 'Green Devils' have found their form in recent games, taking 14 points from their last eight matches and sat 20th in the League Two, three points clear of the relegation zone.
In the first round of the FA Cup this season, Forest Green Rovers sealed their place in the 2nd round with a 1-0 win over National League side Macclesfield Town. Christian Doidge provided the finish late on in the first half that day and Rovers fans will be hoping he makes a similar impact tomorrow.
Forest Green Rovers have been on an impressive run lately and will be heading in to tomorrows tie with some confidence. At the centre of this decent run of form has been talismanic striker Christian Doidge. The 6ft2 front man from Wales started his career at Southampton and signed for Rovers in 2016 from Dagenham and Redbridge. Doidge has got an impressive scoring record for the 'Green Army', netting 29 times in just 45 appearances and has scored 12 times in all competitions already this season.
Mark Cooper's side also host international talent in their ranks. Young forward Omar Bugiel who signed for the side earlier this year boasts international experience with Lebanon, being eligible to play for Lebanon through his father and making his debut as a substitute in November in a 1-0 win over Singapore. Bugiel is Rovers' second highest goal scorer so far this season, finding the net 3 times.
The last time Exeter City faced Forest Green Rovers at the New Lawn was in September this year, the Grecians taking all three points away from the encounter in a 3-1 victory.
The Grecians have faced Forest Green Rovers in the FA Cup before, facing the Gloucestershire side away from home in the 1st round in 2002. The game finished 0-0 that day with a reply at St James Park needed to determine the winner of the tie.
It was Exeter who would eventually proceed to the second round in 2002 courtesy of goals from Gareth Sheldon and Matt Lock.
After a second round win at home to Rushden & Diamonds, the Grecians travelled to then Premier League side Charlton Athletic, managed by Addicks legend Alan Curbishley with the London side coming away as eventual winners in a game that ended 3-1.
Tomorrow's game against Forest Green Rovers is an all-ticket match. Tickets are still available until 4.30pm today and can be purchased over the phone (01392 411 243), online or in person at club reception.


Ryan Mallett bounced back nicely tonight and showed he's here to stay.
Tom Brady saw his first action of the pre-season and 155 days after agreeing to terms with the Patriots, Darrelle Revis was on the field playing in a Patriots uniform. After a somewhat sloppy and non-entertaining pre-season game vs. Washington, the Patriots had plenty to improve upon and took the field Friday night looking to do just that.
These are the games where players distinguish themselves and players either continue to build on early camp momentum or fizzle out. Who stood out and who struggled vs. the Eagles?
After 200 days of waiting the Patriots were finally back on the field and playing tackle football. For Patriots fans that hoped to see Darrelle Revis in game action for the first time, we'll have to wait a little bit longer.
Revis, Tom Brady and the majority of starters sat out the entire game, but there was still plenty to learn from the season's first preseason game. Who stood out, who disappointed, and who surprised? Here are my takeaways from tonight's game.
Ryan Mallett and Tim Tebow took the majority of QB reps on Saturday.
At least one oddsmaker doesn't like Ryan Mallett's chance of bringing home a victory in the first preseason action for the New England Patriots.
Ryan Mallett had his best night as a professional football player.
After delivering a scare to the entire region of New England, Tom Brady was back on the Gillette Stadium field for the Patriots second preseason game. Brady, as expected was in mid-season form and showed no signs of a knee injury. Now that training camp is over and open roster spots dwindling multiple players needed impressive performances to play their way onto the competitive Patriots roster. Which players stood out and whose bubble burst against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers?
Which Patriots receivers are going to step up this off-season?
After a series of OTA sessions and two days of mandatory minicamp, head coach Bill Belichick called off the final day of practices on June 13. In turn, upwards of 90 players departed from 1 Patriot Place blaring Alice Cooper's "Schools Out" from their stereo speakers.
Well, something to that effect.
There's a No. 15 slinging spirals in a New England Patriots practice jersey, and his name is not Tim Tebow.
An Arkansas Razorback by way of the Michigan Wolverines, Mallett was a Patriots third-round pick back in 2011. Selected 74th overall, the Razorback was New England's highest quarterback draft investment since Drew Bledsoe in 1993. And according to then-NFL Network analyst and current Cleveland Browns general manager Michael Lombardi, the 6'6", 245-pounder was ranked atop the team's QB board that April.
Many saw "Big Tex" as a possible heir to Tom Brady's throne. He too spent time under Lloyd Carr during his short time in Ann Arbor, and he too fit the prototype of a drop-back pocket negotiator.
But as we know, comparisons and expectations are the shingles on the roof of prospect disappointment. Mallett had to learn to be an NFL passer before he could become an NFL passer.
As a rookie in 2011, Mallett held a clipboard as the third-string quarterback behind Brian Hoyer. Yet in 2012, he flashed enough to convince Bill Belichick he could be second-in-command. Hoyer was subsequently released, and New England opted to go just two-deep at the game's most pivotal position. Belichick showed trust in a second-year player who hadn't played a professional snap under center.
Mallett went on to make appearances in four games as the lone understudy last year. He took eight kneel-downs for a loss of nine yards, finishing the campaign with just one completion for 17 yards on four pass attempts. He also threw one interception.
With a very small sample size to choose from, the jury is still out on Mallett. He may develop into a starting-caliber field general. But will Foxboro ever be the venue for him to do so?
In late February, Brady signed an extension through the 2017 season, and in turn, that possibility became more of a pipedream for Mallett. After all, the 25-year-old would be 30 and on his second NFL contract by the time that plan were to come to fruition.
So what does 2013 mean for Mallett?
Will we see Ryan Mallett in a different uniform next year?
The Patriots have waited for NFL teams to become disenchanted with the quarterback class in the 2013 NFL Draft. Now teams are coming hat in hand, looking to trade picks for a former third round pick of the Patriots – Ryan Mallett.

Conversion of MX nitrides to Z-phase in a martensitic 12% Cr steel
L. Cipolla, Hilmar Kjartansson Danielsen, D. Venditti, P.E. Di Nunzio, John Hald, Marcel A. J. Somers
Materials and Surface Engineering
A 12% Cr model steel was designed with the purpose of studying the nucleation and growth of modified Z-phase, Cr(V,Nb)N. The model alloy develops Z-phase after relatively short ageing times and contains only nitrides of Cr, V and Nb. Interferences from the presence of carbides and the development of Laves phase were avoided by keeping the C, W and Mo contents as low as possible. Transmission electron microscopy and X-ray diffraction analysis of extracted particles were used to follow the evolutions of phase composition, phase morphology and phase fraction, particularly of the precipitation of Z-phase, during ageing at 600, 650 and 700 degrees C for up to 103 h. The development of Z-phase appears to be accomplished by the diffusion of Cr atoms into (V,Nb)N particles and their subsequent conversion into cubic or tetragonal Z-phase. Studies at various temperatures indicate that Z-phase development proceeds fastest at 650 degrees C and that Z-phase forms faster at prior austenite grain boundaries.

Q: Is there a way to detect changes in Focus Assist (formerly Quiet Hours) in Windows 10 from a Win32 App I'd like to change the presence state in an App automatically to DND when Focus Assist is turned on.
So two questions basically:

*

*Is it possible to check Focus Assist state through e.g. Windows 10 SDK?
There is a similar question for Quiet Hours in Windows 8 here: Get windows Quiet hours from Win32 or C# API, though it's not clear whether it also still applies to "Focus Assist" since this is no longer a true or false value.
Quiet hours had only ON/OFF state while Focus Assist can be OFF/PRIORITY/ALARMS.

*The more interesting question though, which is not answered in the post mentioned above: is there an event I could register to, to get notified about state changes?
The goal is to get notified right away, when Focus Assist status changes in order to not have to query the registry on a regular basis.

A: As far as I know there is no officially documented way of getting the Focus assist status.
It still can be accessed by querying the WNF State of the feature, although this is completely undocumented and not officially supported.
The various states for WNF Data have been reverse engineered, so the one for Focus Assist is WNF_SHEL_QUIETHOURS_ACTIVE_PROFILE_CHANGED.
The C++ sample below shows how to get the state of Focus Assist feature (mostly off, priority_only and alarm_only).
Once again, be wary that this is not officially supported by Microsoft:

#include <iostream>
#include <string>

        if (result_map.count(buffer) == 0)
        {

The Center for Urban Community Services Announces New Chief Executive Officer Joseph DeGenova
Founder Tony Hannigan to Retire as Chief Executive Officer; Longtime CUCS Associate Executive Director DeGenova Takes the Reins
The Center for Urban Community Services (CUCS) today announced it will have a new Chief Executive Officer in December. CUCS's founder Tony Hannigan will step down from his role as President and CEO following 37 years with CUCS, succeeded by long-time CUCS veteran, Joseph DeGenova, who has been with the organization for 30 years.
DeGenova is currently CUCS's Associate Executive Director, overseeing the management of all of the agency services and training programs, as well as supporting the strategic positioning and ongoing development of the organization. DeGenova will be the second CEO CUCS has had since its creation in 1993, following its spin-off from Columbia University.
Prior to being named Chief Executive Officer, DeGenova served in a variety of leadership roles with CUCS, starting as the Assistant Program Director in 1989 of CUCS's shelter for homeless women with psychiatric disabilities. This shelter set housing placement records and became a model for city-wide replication. DeGenova subsequently served in senior leadership positions in the organization, helping to build CUCS's impact in the field through innovative programming and partnerships. As Associate Executive Director, DeGenova supervised senior staff overseeing 33 different service programs, its medical affiliate, and the organization's staff training institute which reaches upwards of 15,000 individuals annually across the nation.
"For over three decades we have provided steadfast support to individuals and families as they navigate out of homelessness, always striving to make our services as good as if we or members of our family were using them," said DeGenova. "I am thrilled to build upon CUCS's signature emphasis on quality as a provider of affordable housing, healthcare, staff training, and supportive services. Tony has been a mentor to many, and as CEO I will continue on the path he forged at CUCS."
Under Hannigan's leadership, CUCS has become one of the largest service providers for New Yorkers through its housing, psychiatric, medical and social services programs. Hannigan has spearheaded bold programs and has helped foster progressive policies to support New York City's most marginalized individuals and families.
"As the founder of the Center for Urban Community Services, this work is deeply personal to me. The organization has transformed the lives of thousands of people," said Hannigan. "It has been my honor and privilege to serve CUCS, and I am confident that Joe's passion, leadership, and commitment will continue to improve the lives of New Yorkers and advance CUCS's legacy."
"On behalf of everyone at CUCS, I would like to express a heartfelt thanks to Tony for almost four decades of dedicated work on behalf of hundreds of thousands of homeless and impoverished New Yorkers" added Alex Rose, Chairman of the Board of Directors of CUCS. "While it is always a sad day for an organization to transition from a founder to the next generation of leadership, our organization could not be placed in better hands than Joe DeGenova's, a longtime passionate leader at CUCS."


There are a number of colour boosters on the market at the minute. I had been toying with buying the Maria Nila luminous colour masques on the Sally's website when I came across the Clairol version in store in Superdrug. Half the price and right in front of my face. Just how I like it. I've been using it for about about two months now and even my hairdresser has commented at how well it has helped hide my growth and kept my ends from looking pale and broken, which they absolutely still were. This is not a miracle cure from damaged hair, the only thing that will help that is a sharp pair of scissors laying off the heat, and proper nutrition - my body is nutritionally starved thanks to the Crohns and Coeliacs so I'm hoping that once I get both of those under control it will start to improve. In the mean time I'm hoping two out of three ain't bad with a new standing appointment to get a trim and an Olaplex treatment every 5-6 weeks and by using a mainly cold setting on my hair dryer. It's early days but I'm noticing the difference!
So thats my current routine, I notice a massive difference in my hair when I don't do the deep conditions, I'm under no illusions that they are repairing the damage but anything I can do to prevent more and reduce visibility is fine by me and I think the video below shows just that!
I'm always on the lookout for budget friendly hair care, so please don't be afraid to lend your suggestions.


The past few years have entailed many instances of markets "not making sense." The latest iteration I hear about a lot is stocks' continued rise in the face of a Fed hike, a bond meltdown, political uncertainty and an EM currency crisis.
It's important to understand that it has been years since stocks traded mostly on fundamentals. At least, if not more important, are the yen carry trade, the oil-driven algos and other central bank interventions.
And, all this has occurred against a backdrop of aggressive corporate leveraging in a historically low interest rate environment in order to buy back stock and, thus, leverage what little growth in sales/cash flow most corporations have been able to muster.
With six weeks to go until year end, the market has a good strong whiff of the barn. With TPTB giving it the whip, we shouldn't be surprised that it's seemingly picking up momentum. The big question is whether we can get there without stumbling.
