The Complainant is Jackson National Life Insurance Company of Michigan, United States of America, represented by Butzel Long of United States of America.
The Respondent is Ho Nim of Shanghai the People's Republic of China.
The disputed domain name <jacksonnationalliveinsuranceco.com> is registered with Above.com, Inc.
The Complaint was filed with the WIPO Arbitration and Mediation Center (the "Center") on May 31, 2010. On June 1, 2010, the Center transmitted by email to Above.com, Inc a request for registrar verification in connection with the disputed domain name. On June 2, 2010, Above.com, Inc. transmitted by email to the Center its verification response confirming that the Respondent is listed as the registrant and providing the contact details. The Center verified that the Complaint satisfied the formal requirements of the Uniform Domain Name Dispute Resolution Policy (the "Policy" or "UDRP"), the Rules for Uniform Domain Name Dispute Resolution Policy (the "Rules"), and the WIPO Supplemental Rules for Uniform Domain Name Dispute Resolution Policy (the "Supplemental Rules").
In accordance with the Rules, paragraphs 2(a) and 4(a), the Center formally notified the Respondent of the Complaint, and the proceedings commenced on June 7, 2010. In accordance with the Rules, paragraph 5(a), the due date for Response was June 27, 2010. The Respondent did not submit any response. Accordingly, the Center notified the Respondent's default on June 28, 2010.
The Complainant has traded in the United States since the 1960's. It offers insurance and investment-related services.
The Complainant owns, inter alia, United States trade mark no. 2,338,819 for JACKSON NATIONAL LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY in classes 35 and 36 dated April 12, 1999.
The Respondent registered the disputed domain name on December 22, 2009.
The disputed domain name includes the phrase "Jackson Live Insurance".
The Respondent is not making legitimate non-commercial or fair use of the disputed domain name but intends to misleadingly divert consumers for commercial gain. The Respondent's website is commercial in nature as it includes links to other life insurance company websites.
The Complainant has established rights in the term "Jackson National Life Insurance Company" arising from its registered trade mark.
Disregarding the domain suffix, the only differences between the trade mark and the disputed domain name are the replacement of "life" with "live" and the abbreviation of "company" to "co". These differences are entirely insignificant. The trade mark and disputed domain name remain virtually identical.
The Panel concludes that the disputed domain name is confusingly similar to the Complainant's trade mark.
Given the similarity between the disputed domain name and the Complainant's distinctive mark, it is obvious that that the Respondent registered the disputed domain name with the Complainant's trade mark in mind.
For all the foregoing reasons, in accordance with paragraphs 4(i) of the Policy and 15 of the Rules, the Panel orders that the domain name, <jacksonnationalliveinsuranceco.com> be transferred to the Complainant.

Taxes and your money
Revenue law and technical information (includes Income Tax)
Guidelines, policies and practice notes for tax
Tax information for dealing with a deceased person's estate
Before you can act as an executor or administrator, you will normally have to get legal recognition. This takes the form of a document known as the 'grant of probate' or, if there is no will, 'letters of administration'. If you have not already obtained legal recognition, you should contact the probate section of the Judicial Greffe for further advice.
You should tell us about the death as soon as you can. This helps to avoid relatives being upset by tax bills or letters addressed to the deceased person.
How do I settle the deceased's tax affairs up to the date of their death?
To settle the tax affairs of a deceased person we will need to see:
the grant of probate or letters of administration
completed tax return for the year in which death occurred (and sometimes for earlier years)
business accounts not previously sent in for the years up to the date of death, if the deceased was self-employed
When we have received all the required information we will check whether tax is due, or has been overpaid, for the period to the date of death. If tax is due, we will send you a notice of assessment showing how much you have to pay. You will be responsible for paying the tax from the estate. If tax has been overpaid a repayment cheque will be sent.
Paying tax on income of the estate after the date of death
As administrator or executor, you may receive income due to the estate from the date of death until you complete the administration of the estate.
We will ask you to complete a return (form R59) for the period of administration of the estate and to pay the tax on that income at the standard rate of tax for the Jersey resident benefiaries (once a person has died, his or her personal allowances are no longer available to set against the income of the estate).
If you are the sole beneficiary of an estate and have agreement from us, then you can declare any income from the estate on your personal tax return and the estate return will not be required. You will need to sign a statement to this effect.
Download beneficiary of estate statement (size 3kb)
Will trust
After the administration of an estate is complete and the executor's responsibilities are over, the estate may not necessarily pass to the ultimate beneficiaries straight away. The deceased's will may create a trust.
The trustee has to deal with the trust assets and the income generated by those assets according to the terms of the trust. The trustee is liable to tax on the income generated by the trust property. An annual income tax return (R59) will need to be completed and the tax paid on that income at the standard rate of tax.

5 Things You Need to Know About Visiting Cuba
By Miriam B. Weiner, Staff Writer May 11, 2015
By Miriam B. Weiner, Staff Writer May 11, 2015, at 4:59 p.m.
Since President Barack Obama announced in December 2014 that the United States plans to restore full diplomatic relations with Cuba, avid travelers have been preparing to visit the small Caribbean nation. But it's not as easy as you might think.
Cuba already welcomes roughly 3 million international travelers each year; people flock to the island from Canada, Britain and Latin America to enjoy the beaches, art scene and heritage sites. But traveling to Cuba as an American is like jumping through hoops, and what you find may defy expectations. To help you better prepare for your trip, here are five things you need to know about traveling to Cuba.
See: How to Travel to Cuba
You will need to obtain a visa to travel to Cuba. You'll need to apply for the visa associated with your travel purposes, such as religious or medical travel, family visits, or people-to-people travel, which is the most common type of visa attained by Americans. When in Cuba, you will need to ensure that your activities coincide with your visa type.
The people-to-people category is most applicable to American travelers looking to experience Cuba. This type of visa requires that you engage in educational experiences with Cuban citizens, such as school visits, meetings with local artists or concerts. Tour providers like smarTours include the cost of your visa in the price of the trip — the company will even complete the application process for you — and ensure that you meet the requirements.
Because of the U.S. embargo, banks have not yet been able to establish a foothold in Cuba, meaning it's a cash-focused country.
You can exchange currency at the José Martí International Airport or at your hotel. Keep in mind that there is a 10 percent fee to exchange U.S. currency for Cuban currency. There are two official currencies in Cuba; when you exchange American dollars, you'll receive Cuban convertible pesos (CUC), which are roughly equal to the U.S. dollar. You may also encounter the national peso (CUP), which is worth around 4 cents. Always check your change to ensure you're receiving Cuban convertible pesos.
You'll also want to be sure to carry change for tips. In addition to hotel housekeepers, restaurant servers and cab drivers, you'll also need to leave a few Cuban convertible pesos for restroom attendants and anyone who helps you find your way. (One thing to be aware of: If you encounter elaborately dressed people on the streets of Old Havana, don't snap a photo unless you're willing to leave them with a peso or two.)
Restored diplomatic relations will make it easier for Americans to travel to Cuba, but the nation's infrastructure isn't quite ready to accommodate demand. If you're traveling with a tour group, this isn't something you have to worry about. But if you're visiting Cuba on your own, you'll need to make reservations well in advance.
Many Caribbean hotel brands — including Meliá and Iberostar — operate properties in Cuba. You can reserve a hotel room in Cuba online, though you will want to call to verify your reservation. You can also book through a travel agency. However, payment can be tricky: Even if you pay for your room through your travel agent, the embargo may prevent your payment from reaching your hotel in time (another reason to book well in advance). Come prepared with enough cash to cover the cost, just in case.
One thing to keep in mind: Cuba is a second-world country, and even brand-name hotels aren't without their quirks, such as limited television options and sporadic water temperature.
See: 4 Trips You Didn't Know You Could Take
You may want to sit down for this news: Your phone won't work in Cuba. Until the embargo is lifted, U.S. phone companies won't be able to offer international calling and data packages. If you need to make calls in Cuba, you can use the landline in your hotel, or you can purchase a prepaid Cuban SIM card for roughly 3 Cuban convertible pesos per day from Cubacel (you can do this at the airport).
It is possible to connect to the Internet in your hotel — some properties even offer this amenity for free — but you won't receive the high-speed service you're used to. Connectivity is slow and spotty, and some American websites may not always be accessible. Rather than stress out about checking email and posting to Facebook, embrace going off the grid.
If you expect to find the azure waters, volcanic landscapes and manicured villages of other nearby islands like the Bahamas, the Cayman Islands or Turks and Caicos, you'll be sorely disappointed. Fifty years of strained diplomatic relations have left their mark on Cuba: Run-down buildings line the streets of Havana and modest shacks pepper the countryside.
But beauty is not hard to find here. Old Havana — a UNESCO World Heritage Site — is home to stunning colonial architecture and a smattering of paladars (privately owned restaurants). Limited economic opportunities have led Cubans to be creative in other ways. You can't go two blocks without encountering street murals, art studios and joyful salsa music. People like José Fuster have transformed their neighborhoods into magnificent works of art, and communities have banded together to support efforts like choirs, crafts workshops and even acrobatics. Visiting Cuba on a people-to-people trip will allow you to experience all of this and more.

The annual meeting of the Florida Shore and Beach Preservation Association (FSBPA) was held at the Tradewinds Hotel (St. Petersburg Beach, Florida). The conference started during the afternoon of February 18th and ended Friday morning, February 20th, 2009. The meeting brought together professionals specializing in ocean engineering, coastal modeling, environmental evaluation, mitigation, and rehabilitation. A total of 42 presentations were made at the conference. Eighteen (18) of these talks focused on coastal structure design and engineering, of which eleven (11) dealt with the evaluation of problem coastal areas and seven (7) were mainly related to the use and reliability of the current group of numerical models to describe coastal processes. The remaining six (6) presentations focused on habitat rehabilitation and mitigating the environmental effects of development projects.
Highlighting the conference, with respect to potential application in the Caribbean, were several presentations that dealt with coral rehabilitation and evaluation of biological stress. This conference and the pre-conference workshop on the US Army Corps of Engineers Coastal Modeling System provided an opportunity to canvass the coastal engineering community with respect to critical research areas in the Caribbean. The questionnaire that we used as a scoping tool is a modification of the four questions that we presented at our GCFI scoping session last November. We based our survey questions on the suggestions for research areas gleaned from an earlier e-mail survey that we conducted in 2006. Of the approximately 150 people attending the conference and workshop, 30 participants were found with experience in the Caribbean and asked to respond to our written survey. Six (6) submitted their response at the conference and an approximately equal number promised to send a response by fax or email. The results are being added to a database for analysis and new results are being included as we receive them.

Milk Drop, 1997
Galerie Edwynn Houk is delighted to present an exhibition of photographs by Vik Muniz, from two of his most iconic series, Pictures of Chocolate and Pictures of Diamonds.
Vik Muniz (Brazilian, b. 1961) is best known for his reimagined imagery and the inventiveness of his technique. He uses an extensive variety of materials including sugar, dirt, string, chocolate, wire, garbage and diamonds, to recreate and interpret famous images, such as the Mona Lisa executed in peanut butter and jelly, or a Picasso created entirely with raw paint pigment. He then photographs his rendering before destroying it, leaving only the photograph as the final artwork. Muniz taps into our collective memory of known and recognizable images and artworks. With a wry and canny combination of high and low, Muniz uses the photograph not in the traditional sense, as a recording of reality, but instead as a document of his illusion.
It is Muniz's works in chocolate (specifically the brand Bosco) that are the most famous and recognizable from his entire oeuvre. An adroit draftsman, his technical virtuosity enables him to execute drawings incredibly quickly, retaining the liquid chocolate's viscosity in his photographs. His Pictures of Chocolate series, which he began in 1997, includes an extensive group of subjects: the milk drop of Harold Edgerton's 1957 stop-motion photograph, portraits of football players, stills from movies, and well known artworks from Warhol to Old Masters. His "Action Painters" and "Action Photos" recreate the iconic photographs by Hans Namuth of Jackson Pollock creating one of his drip paintings. The gestural pooling of Muniz's chocolate echoes Pollock's expressionist paint drips, showcasing a "perfect marriage of subject and material."
In a similar vein, Muniz's series Pictures of Diamonds consists of portraits of iconic Hollywood stars, such as Marilyn Monroe and Elizabeth Taylor, created entirely of diamonds - a material that is perfectly suited for the subject matter. Muniz plays upon close associations that viewers readily make between these glamorous divas and the opulent diamonds. Muniz has commented upon his own fascination with the stones and how light plays off of them, an effect heightened in the finished photograph. Muniz plays with scale, enlarging the diamonds to a dazzling size. Yet the portrait is ephemeral; once captured by the camera, the composition is quickly overturned to make the next arrangement. The fleeting beauty of the "diamond diva" is immortalized by the permanence of the photograph, and in the same spirit as Andy Warhol, it's the portrait that perhaps serves as a true testament to their legend.
Vik Muniz is represented in numerous public collections, including the Museum of Modern Art, New York, Tate Gallery, London and the Fondation Cartier pour l'Art Contemporain, Paris. He was the subject of the Academy Award nominated film, "Waste Land," in 2010. He lives and works in Brooklyn, New York and Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.

Westboro is a thriving community with a lively street scene. Several condominium projects are encouraging densification and promising to bring more people to the neighbourhood. The village features murals painted by a local artist. The neighbourhood also boasts a concentration of outdoors and sport stores including Mountain Equipment Co-op, Vancouver-based Lululemon Athletica, Bushtukah, The Expedition Shoppe and Trailhead and is close to cycling trails and whitewater rapids in the Ottawa River. The influx of these outdoor and sports stores, along with a number of boutiques, restaurants and coffee shops on Richmond Road are considered to be a significant contributor to the gentrification that Westboro underwent in the 2000s.
The neighbourhood is served by two OC Transpo stations: Westboro and Dominion, as well as Route 2, which provides frequent local service along Richmond Road.
Westfest, a free Canadian arts and music festival, was previously held in Westboro from 2004-2015 during the second weekend in June, and featured a variety of local and national performers. It has now been moved to Laroche Park in Ottawa's Mechanicsville area.


Next to the river Colorado, in the corner that marks the frontier of Baja California in Mexico, with California and Arizona, in United States, Los Algodones, a town that has become the medical destiny for excellence from Mexico for the amount of doctor's offices that here they meet, so the pretext of our journey is "the Molar City".
The community Los Algodones was famous because it was riddled with cotton fields and yet there are some that adorn the road about the end of September, when they begin to the white crepes in the shrubs go out.
This town is very demanded by the North American tourists for two reasons: There is those who attend the dentist's offices, and other ones because after going into retirement they am delighted to experience his days here.
For a long time, begin the motion of the snowbirds. The majority are manly and older women of 60 years. Many of them wear bermuda shorts and white or beige tennis of check mark, bonnets of baseball wear that say "I love Alaska" or "Sweet home Alabama" and with a smile on the face.
The reasons? Okay, we have to say that the town Los Algodones has 5 thousand inhabitants and 350 dental clinics. Tourists get themselves for 250 dollars an endodontics that in United States can cost 900 dollars to them. Another important point is that the transfer to this community is of four hours of Los Angeles, to two hours of San Diego and to four of Phoenix (Arizona). It is also to half-hour of Mexicali, the capital city of Baja California.
The street "Reforma" of "Mexicali" it is like a commercial polygon of the medicine. Furthermore, since the month of October, Mexicali and Los Algodones prepare to receive the so-called "birds of snow", such a common expression here than it seems that refer to a local party. It is about the patient Canadians, that they come above all in this epoch of the year and move in a time fleeing of the cold.
The "snow birds", those who in addition to take care of their clear choice dental needs arrive since 7 of December, take the opportunity to go over the city, to buy craftsmanships, to enjoy the gastronomy and to relax.

Inside the Lewis Collaborative
Reinventing a century-old U. City landmark
By Liam Otten May 3, 2021
The charge was ambitious. Conditions were complicated. The results have been transformative.
The Lewis Collaborative, located less than a mile north of Washington University's Danforth Campus, represents a new chapter for one of University City's oldest and most storied sites. Over the last century, the sprawling, three-building complex — originally built as an art school for women — has housed a junior high, a high school, district offices and, most recently, studio and classroom space for the Sam Fox School of Design & Visual Arts at Washington University in St. Louis.
Now, following a multimillion-dollar renovation, the 3.75-acre property encompasses: 93 residential units; offices and co-working spaces for TechArtista; a coffee shop and communal kitchen; and flexible classroom space, known as the studiolabs, for the Center for the Humanities in Arts & Sciences.
"This has always been a creative hub, and a hub for the arts," said Mary Campbell, associate vice chancellor for real estate, who oversaw the renovation. "What we've done here stays true to that tradition. I think that's in the very DNA of this project."
The Lewis Collaborative site dates back to 1902, when Edward Lewis — publisher of the popular Woman's Magazine and the Woman's Farm Journal, as well as a developer, activist and serial entrepreneur — purchased 85 acres near WashU and Forest Park. Four years later, the area incorporated as University City, and Lewis was elected founding mayor.
Lewis began his women's Art Academy, a Classical Revival building designed by St. Louis architects Eames & Young, in 1909. Completed the following year, it was the first structure in a proposed People's University, and intended to complement the nearby Magazine Building, which housed Lewis' publishing company (and which now serves as U. City's city hall).
But in 1915, Lewis headed west with utopian plans to launch an American Woman's Republic. The academy building was acquired by U. City's fledgling school district. Expansions followed in 1923 and 1926. In 1984, much of the complex became a satellite location for WashU art students, with other portions transformed into apartments .
This rich history remains etched, often literally, in the Lewis Collaborative walls. The words "high school" are still carved atop the southern and western facades. Double-height windows still stream soft northern light into what was once a gymnasium and, later, a ceramics studio.
But decades of additions and partial renovations made way-finding difficult. "Our first challenge was to try to change that and give it an intuitive flow," Campbell explained. Architects from The Lawrence Group and Mahlum Architects called for realigning the entire complex around a new central corridor. Walls were opened, traffic re-routed, bricks and beams exposed to view. The effect is almost archaeological.
"You walk down the halls, you can see how the school was used over many different renditions," Campbell said. "The building itself tells its own story and tells its own piece of history."

A major opportunity
Approaching the 96,000-square-foot complex from Kingsland Avenue, on the western edge of the U. City Loop — a short walk from COCA, the 560 Music Center and the University City Public Library — bicyclists and pedestrians are greeted by a new entrance and updated hardscaping, which lead into the coffee shop, studiolabs and other public-facing amenities. Parking is located by the rebuilt north entrance, next to the new TechArtista facilities.
"My biggest hope for this space is that it creates a really unique overlap between the WashU community, the University City community, and the larger creative ecosystem in St. Louis," said Christopher Holt, founder of TechArtista. "It's a major opportunity for the university and for the larger city as well."

Residential units, which include studios as well as one- and two-bedroom apartments, range from less than 500 to more than 1,200 square feet. A handful of two-story units feature open work space on the lower level and living space above. Re-designed courtyards, lounges and the communal kitchen all provide opportunities for neighborly interaction.
"The idea of the project is to get residents out of their unit, down on the ground floor, and interacting with people not only of other disciplines, but also in the broader community," Campbell said. She also pointed out that, throughout the complex, large, garage-style doors blur boundaries between interior and exterior.
On a crisp fall or spring afternoon, or a warm summer's eve, Campell added, "our hope is that the doors will be open, and the indoor space will naturally flow out and connect to the outdoor space."

"We are thrilled by the possibilities that the Lewis Collaborative opens up for a living/learning community," added Laurie Maffly-Kipp, the Archer Alexander Distinguished Professor in the John C. Danforth Center on Religion and Politics and interim dean of the Graduate School.
"The architectural design, the thoughtfulness about space, the beautiful apartments, and the eye toward interaction with local residents will help us attract and retain the very best students," Maffly-Kipp said. "This is a gem in the heart of the WashU community."
Studiolabs
"Graduate students in the humanities generally attend weekly seminars," said Jean Allman, director of the Center for the Humanities. "You read the book, you think about the book. Sometimes," she added with a laugh, "you tear the book apart. At the dissertation-writing stage, students are typically working solo, 24/7."
But Allman was struck by the collaborative ethos she often found in scientific, medical and engineering laboratories, as well as in art and architecture studio practice. She conceived the studiolabs as both a physical and curricular space, in which interdisciplinary cohorts of scholars and students could examine contemporary issues.
"The idea was to come up with a different model for graduate education," Allman said. "We wanted a space that combined humanist inquiry with the best of studios and labs, but was also outward-facing and engaging to the public."
The studiolabs space can be reconfigured for classes and seminars as well as exhibitions, screenings and other public events. (Photo: Joe Angeles/Washington University)
The inaugural studiolab, which will launch in fall 2021, is titled "Freedom | Information | Act." Led by Joseph Loewenstein, professor of English in Arts & Sciences and director of the Humanities Digital Workshop, it will explore legal, practical, ethical and technical dimensions of working with multimedia archives — from the civil rights era to the Ferguson protests.
In fall 2022, Anika Walke, associate professor of history, and Geoff Ward, professor of African and African American studies, both in Arts & Sciences, will lead "Memory for the Future," a studiolab examining the interlinked histories and public memorialization of colonialism, slavery and genocide.
Both studiolabs, as well as future iterations launching in 2023 and fall 2024, are part of Allman's "Faculty for the Next Generation" initiative. Funded in part by a $1.5 million grant from the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation, the initiative aims to transform perceptions, inside as well as outside the academy, about what it means to be a humanities scholar.
"Not every end-product of humanities graduate training needs to be a 30-page critical essay or a 300-page dissertation," Allman said. The studiolabs space, located around the corner from the coffee shop, can host classes and seminars but also screenings and exhibitions. Concerts or performances could be staged on the old loading dock that now serves as the complex's north entrance.
At the Lewis Collaborative, "all those boundaries that separate student from non-student, public from university, just sort of wither away," Allman concluded.
"If I were a graduate student, it's where I would want to live."

The glu release


A TEENAGER from Wargrave who spends an hour each week collecting litter around the village says he wants others to follow his lead.
Andrei Woodlock, 15, goes out on Saturday mornings to pick up rubbish as part of his silver Duke of Edinburgh's Award taks.
He says he is surprised by the amount of litter he finds and he fills almost a entire bin bag each week.
Andrei, who lives in East View Road with his mother Rachel, a nurse, and their dog Darcey, has been doing his rubbish round for 16 weeks and will continue until Easter in order to qualify for the volunteering part of the award.
He usually goes out mid-morning equipped with a litter-picker and a black bin bag. He walks up and down Victoria Road, School Hill, Mumbery Hill and other roads close to Bath Road.
He often finds piles of food wrappers and drinks cans but has also come across broken car wing mirrors and even used nappies.
Andrei, who is studying for his GCSEs at Shiplake College, said: "I noticed a lot of litter about the place.
"Lots of things get shoved in bushes and I've found the shells of wing mirrors. I've also found car tyres and by the main road there are always lots of bottles. I pick up quite a lot — nearly a whole black bin bag each time. People change their babies' nappies and just leave them by the side of the road.
Andrei completed his bronze Duke of Edinburgh's Award last year. He got involved with his friends at school and completed the three elements, physical, volunteering and skills, as well as going on an overnight expedition in the Chilterns.
Most of his friends dropped out of the scheme after the bronze but Andrei opted to carry on.
The silver award involves longer timescales and a three-day expedition, which will be in the Brecon Beacons in south Wales. If he is successful, he plans to attempt the gold award next year.
Andrei said: "I thought the award looked cool and it's a good experience when you go on the expedition.
Andrei played rugby for the college's second side for his physical challenge and he is attending the school's art club for the skills section.
He decided to choose litter-picking as it was outside school and allowed him more freedom.
Andrei says he is often stopped on his rounds by villagers, mostly to tell him he is doing a good job.
He has also been praised by parish councillors and his assessor is Councillor Marion Pope, who has to vouch that the bags he collects do contain litter from the village.
Andrei said: "I meet about two people each time who will have a small conversation with me about what I am doing. They say 'well done' and how great it is. Words like that definitely make it worthwhile — it's nice that people notice it.
"I also get a lot of comments that the place would be a lot nicer if everyone did this. Doing this has made me want people to stop littering because it doesn't look good on the streets and it's bad for the environment. I'm surprised because I'm used to people in this area saying there isn't much litter but every week I will go to the same places that I've cleaned and there will be more.
Cllr Pope said: "I normally organise the village clean-up, which will be held on the last Saturday of March this year. Andrei came to me to see if he could do this and I thought it was a brilliant idea.
Steve Macpherson, Duke of Edinbrugh's Award manager at Shiplake College, said: "The volunteering section of the award is all about making a difference in the community by giving your time to help others and change things for the better.
"Andrei has certainly done that by volunteering to pick litter.

Know your own sleep pattern, and don't pressure your body by forcing yourself to stay awake for a longer number of hours just to complete your shipment. If you know you are going to have to drive a long stretch and may not have but a few hours to sleep, get a couple of hours of rest before you begin driving so you are refreshed and able to cope with the challenges of driving long hours. Use the times when your cargo is being loaded or unloaded, or your break times at truck stops to help you catch a couple of winks.
Another problem that plagues truck drivers and contributes to bad sleep is sleep apnea. Obstructive sleep apnea is a condition that truck drivers, owing to their unhealthy lifestyles and tendency to gain weight are more prone to. It disturbs sleep, causing truck drivers to wake up often during sleep thereby reducing the quality of their sleep. According to the American Academy of Sleep Medicine, obstructive sleep arena is a great risk to truck drivers as well as the safety of the millions of motorists who share the road with these large vehicles every year.
CPAP therapy is often prescribed for truck drivers who suffer from sleep arena, but in too many cases, drivers fail to begin therapy, or discontinue use of the treatment within a couple of weeks. Trucking companies can play a big role here, by encouraging drivers to get and stick with their sleep apnea treatment.
A drowsy driver operating a large commercial truck that can weigh up to 80,000 pounds is a grave risk not just to his own safety, but also the safety of other motorists operating their vehicles on the highways with his truck. This is why it is imperative that truck drivers and their employers take steps to reduce the risks to everyone on the roads.
If your loved one has been injured in an accident involving a large truck, semi rig or 18-wheeler, speak to an Atlanta trucking accident attorney at the Katz Law Firm to ascertain your legal rights to compensation. You may qualify for damages that include, but are not limited to, medical costs, lost income and pain and suffering.

Barnier: 'Serious divergences' remain in Brexit talks over Northern Ireland
EURACTIV.com with AFP

Brussels and London have made progress on several technical sections of Brexit negotiations but "serious divergences" remain over the issue of Northern Ireland after a final round of talks ahead of this month's European summit, the EU said Tuesday (19 June).
"Today marks a step forward in these negotiations — we have agreed a number of separation issues and the UK has engaged on others," the EU's chief Brexit negotiator Michel Barnier said on Twitter.
Today marks a step forward in these negotiations – we have agreed a number of separation issues and the #UK has engaged on others. But we are not there yet: serious divergences remain on the backstop for NI/IE. More work clearly needed: https://t.co/w3Vw39w8Nr #Brexit
— Michel Barnier (@MichelBarnier) June 19, 2018
"But we are not there yet: serious divergences remain on the backstop for (Northern Ireland and the Irish Republic). More work clearly needed."
Negotiators have struggled to find a solution acceptable to both sides which want to avoid a "hard border" after Britain's departure from the European Union.
In London the ministry in charge of Brexit was more optimistic, with a spokesman saying in a statement that overall the two sides had reached agreement on a vast majority of topics.
The future of the border between EU member Ireland and Northern Ireland after Brexit is one of the most hotly contested issues in the negotiations, with many on both sides of the border wanting to keep the current free-flowing frontier open.
France says June is 'ultimate deadline' for Brexit progress on Irish border
A June summit of European Union leaders is the "ultimate deadline" to make progress on issues related to Northern Ireland's border, French Foreign Minister Jean-Yves Le Drian said on Sunday (13 May).
The two sides met Tuesday in Brussels without their chief negotiators Barnier and his British counterpart David Davis.
"We have advanced on some separation issues for which European businesses need certainty, such as customs, VAT, Euratom and certificates for goods," Barnier said in a statement accompanying a joint declaration from Brussels and London.
The joint text reports on "further progress" since 19 March when Britain and the other 27 EU nations agreed on a large part of the withdrawal treaty.
It comes just over a week before the 28-29 June EU summit at which Barnier will present the state of play in Brexit negotiations to the assembled heads of state and government.
The EU hopes a final version of the withdrawal agreement, together with a political declaration on the future relationship between London and the EU, can be approved by October so that it can be ratified by the Brexit deadline of the end of March 2019.

How can I read a file's contents directly with Perl's Net::FTP?
I want to get the file from one host to another host. We can get the file using the NET::FTP module. In that module we can use the get method to get the file. But I want the file contents instead of the file. I know that using the read method we can read the file contents. But how do I call the read function and how do I get the file contents?
Get REMOTE_FILE from the server and store locally. LOCAL_FILE may be a filename or a filehandle.
So just store the file directly into a variable attached to a filehandle.
How can I FTP a file with an SSH key instead of a password, in Perl?
How do I read a file's contents into a Perl scalar?

Hawaiian legend has it that giant mo'o (lizards) live in MOUNTAIN POOLS. Although swimming in the pools is OFF-LIMITS UNTIL FURTHER NOTICE, legend has it that, before going for a swim, swimmers are supposed to MAKE AN OFFERING to the resident mo'o by dropping a flower or small tree branch into the water. Ask his permission to enter, and see if the flower disappears. If it does, skip the swim—the mo'o is warning you to stay away.
The pools of 'OHE'O GULCH are located off Route 31 about 10 miles past HANA. But more importantly, heed any signs that may be posted around the pools or hiking trail streams of HALEAKALA NATIONAL PARK.
Since waters can be dangerous, be sure to just admire them from dry land.
Though regularly referred to as SEVEN SACRED POOLS, there are actually more than 20 pools carved from volcanic rock and fed by 'OHE'O STREAM. The chain of pools is connected by picturesque WATERFALLS and short cascades. Visit nps.gov/hale/planyourvisit/kipahulu.htm for details.

Like a million other iPhone users, I was equally excited to download iOS 8.3 on my iPhone 6. After the successful download, I came to know that I was not able to download or purchase an app from the App Store as my touch ID got unauthorized on my iPhone 6.
Thankfully, I was not the only person on this earth to face this problem. When I logged on community portals, I saw many dejected souls, who had the similar problem of Touch ID not working on iOS 8.3.
Based on my past experience with other iPhones, I made some attempts to make it work. But all in vain. Then we at iGeeksBlog started looking for the fix for this weird issue and found a possible solution.
Follow the below mentioned simple steps to fix the issue of touch ID not working on iOS 8.3. Check the results and share with us.
Step #1. Open Settings on iPhone or iPad → Scroll down and tap on Touch ID.
Step #2. Type Passcode → Toggle off iTunes & App Store → Go back to Home screen.
Step #4. Type in your Passcode or Password to unlock screen.
Step #5. Open Settings on iPhone/iPad.
Step #6. Tap on Touch ID & Enter Passcode.
Step #7. Toggle on iTunes & App Store.
Hurray!!! After following the above steps, I could easily download and buy apps from App Store on my iPhone 6.
You can also follow these simple steps if you have encountered this problem. By the way, this problem has occurred to many Apple products, which include iPhone 5s, iPhone 6, iPhone 6 Plus and iPad Air 2.

Meet Magawa A 'Hero Rat' Who Saved The Life Of Millions, Now Retired From His Service
Bhupinder SinghUpdated on Jun 08, 2021, 17:16 IST
We all want to calm down when we reach retirement age and that's no different for landmine sniffing rodent Magawa. After five years of hard work a giant African rat known as the "hero rat", takes a well-deserved retirement after helping to save lives by detecting landmines in Cambodia and even being decorated for his bravery:
Service -
During his five-year career, Magawa has helped clear some 225,000 square metres of land, the equivalent of 42 football pitches and detected 71 mines and 38 unexploded ordnance.
Awards -
Last September, a rat hero was awarded a gold medal by the British association for the protection o... Read More
Last September, a rat hero was awarded a gold medal by the British association for the protection of animals PDSA (People's Dispensary for Sick Animals), which annually rewards an animal for its bravery.
Apopo
First rat awarded -
Magawa was the first rat to receive this award, considered the animal equivalent of the George Cross (The highest award bestowed by the British government for non-operational gallantry or gallantry not in the presence of an enemy), the highest honor bestowed on civilians.
Join other brave animals -
He was the first rat in the charity's 77-year history to honor animals to receive the medal - joining a line of brave dogs, horses, pigeons and a cat.
Undefeated performance -
Malen, the manager of Magawa, said in a statement: "Magawa's performance is undefeated and I was proud to work alongside him.
Health -
"Although still in good health, he has reached retirement age and is clearly starting to slow down," said APOPO. " It's time. "
Bit tired of service -
But after detecting 71 landmines and 38 items of unexploded ordnance "he is getting a bit tired," Mi... Read More
But after detecting 71 landmines and 38 items of unexploded ordnance "he is getting a bit tired," Michael Heiman, the charity's programme manager in Cambodia, told AFP news agency on Saturday. "The best thing to do is to retire him," Heiman said. In his autumn years, Magawa will spend more time doing what he loves – eating bananas and peanuts, Heiman added.
Will live same life -
In retirement, Magawa will live in his same cage as before and follow the same daily routine, but won't be going out to the minefields anymore, said Lily Shallom, an APOPO spokeswoman, contacted by phone at the organization's operational headquarters in Tanzania.
Youtube/PDSA
Enjoy his life -
Now he will enjoy fresh fruit and vegetables fed and supplemented with small sun-dried fish for protein and imported pellets for vitamins and fiber, have playtime every day and get regular exercise and health checks.
Activities -
Everyday he will be released into a larger cage with facilities like sandbox and a running For 20-30 minutes.

Nova Scotia to End My-Play Monitoring System

Nova Scotia is ending their card monitoring program for VLTs. (Image: News 95.7)
Nova Scotia's My-Play System has been helping players track and control their spending on video lottery terminals (VLTs) since 2010, and have been mandatory since April 2012.
The idea was to give players a simple way to track their play habits and set limits to prevent gambling problems from spiraling out of control. But officials now say that the program was mostly a failure.
The provincial government of Nova Scotia is now abandoning the My-Play program, saying that only a small percentage of all players were using the system in the way that it was intended.
"While the My-Play System may have been a reasonable attempt to improve responsible gaming features on VLTs, in the end, it did not reduce play by people with gambling addictions, and in fact, the vast majority of play sessions didn't even use the main features of the product," said Andrew Younger, the minister in charge of overseeing Part I of the Gaming Control Act, in a statement.
System Mandatory Since 2012
From 2010 through early 2012, the My-Play system worked only on a voluntary basis, before moving to a mandatory system in April 2012 .
Some Opposition lawmakers reacted harshly to Younger's assertion that this decision was made on a financial basis.
The system used cards to help players set spending limits, time limits, and give players information about both their current sessions and their play history.
While some might point out that even having a small number of players use the system could have an impact on problem gambling, Younger says that the system simply isn't cost effective.
"In addition to providing responsible gambling programs and being mindful of people with gambling addictions, we must also be mindful of public dollars," Younger said. "We have reached the conclusion that, given the system does not work as intended, further spending of public dollars on it is not reasonable."
System Will Shut Down by Early September
The Nova Scotia Gaming Corporation will switch the My-Play System back to a voluntary model on Friday, before shutting it down entirely on September 8. Younger did point out that other features, such as mandatory cash outs, would still be active on VLTs.
"Turning to problem gamblers to balance the budget is not competent fiscal management," said Progressive Conservative gaming control critic Chris d'Entremont.
The My-Play system was based on card usage. Players were required to insert their card into the VLT, and were then given the option to set limits for themselves. At any time, players could also stop play immediately if they wished to do so. Preliminary studies suggested that high-risk players were the most likely to take advantage of the system, though it seems few players actually used the features in practice.
Other jurisdictions have either proposed or implemented similar systems around the world. In Norway, such cards are mandatory, and problem gambling reportedly dropped throughout the country.
However, such technology was only one of several new features designed to combat compulsive gambling there, including the removal of a slot where players could insert bills into machines and a limit on how much players could gamble on a daily basis. Australia briefly approved similar pre-commitment technology, but those efforts were mostly rolled back by the current government.

"I Teach—What's Your Superpower?"
Member Spotlight: Argine Safari
This article originally appeared in the April 2017 Teaching Music.
THERE'S A SIGN on the piano in the room where NAfME member Argine Safari teaches music to grades 9–12 at Pascack Valley High School in Hillsdale, New Jersey. It reads: "I teach—what's your superpower?" An enthusiastic and inspiring educator, Safari was chosen as the New Jersey Teacher of the Year for 2016–17. Her journey, which began in Armenia and took her through Russia and finally to the United States in 1994 with her husband and young daughter, has been filled with joys and challenges.
Although Safari began to study piano at age six, teaching music came much later and after considerable soul-searching. She recounts, "After emigrating to the United States, I went back to college and graduated with a business degree, and then held jobs as a translator, insurance agent, and financial advisor. But I stayed active in music during evenings and weekends: Music was the thing that kept me going during hard times."
Safari's decision to be a music educator was the result of a revelation. She says, "The pivotal moment for me was when I decided to help a student who had lost her father in the 9/11 attacks prepare for the rigorous admissions process for a competitive tuition-free music performance school in New York City, and the student was accepted. None of my performing experiences compared to the feeling I had when I learned about her success. That's when I knew I had to turn my passion for music into a career of teaching."

It's her students who keep her motivated. "They are my true inspiration. They walk into my classroom eager to learn and share the beauty of music together and, suddenly, all my worries disappear, and I feel impelled to share my knowledge and love for music with them. My students taught me to never take a single day for granted, but to consider it an opportunity to help them believe in themselves through music. The truth is, my students gave meaning to my life."
When asked about the most challenging part of her job, Safari reflects on her past, saying, "I grew up in Armenia, a country with a long, rich history of music and the arts. There, music teachers are among the most respected professionals. As an American music educator, I struggle to maintain that status within our society, as I find myself continuously advocating for the profession and speaking of the importance of the arts in our schools. It is my strong belief that each child in America deserves to get high-quality music and arts education, regardless of his or her background or home zip code. No schools should face budget cuts that affect their music or arts programs."
Safari offers several tips for successful teaching:
Create strong connections with your students. Spend the time to get to know each student. Learn about their dreams, fears, worries, their aspirations. Uncover one unique talent in each student. Show every student that you care about him or her.
Have high expectations of your students, but even higher expectations of yourself. Never stop learning and sharpening your skills; continue to practice daily. Teach with passion and joy, and your students will fall in love with music and you.
When you feel frustrated and hopeless, sit back and think about your own journey and what brought you here. Remember that you have a purpose. There is a reason you are where you are. Believe that with consistency, hard work, and hope, you will eventually succeed.
Regardless of what others say, what you do every day truly matters. You have the ability to influence your students' lives and help them find talents and passions that they are not even aware of. Embrace that.
Because she was once a refugee, Safari has a deep understanding of diversity. She remembers how hard it was to learn how to fit in in a new culture. She admits that "it took a lot of hard work and self-discovery to finally realize that I, too, could contribute to my new world. This is why I feel strongly about connecting with my students and helping them find their own voice. Music and the other arts are blind to academic levels, cultural differences, and socioeconomic spectra. We must create an all-inclusive environment where every student is respected and accepted. Only then can true learning happen."
Safari views her classroom as a beautiful mosaic where each student represents a very special color. She says, "I embrace the beauty of these colors—each of my students is an important piece that makes the entire artwork unique and powerful. My job is to make sure that each of us maintains our own identity, but we become one when we're making music together."

The one lesson that Safari has tried hard to teach her students is that, "With passion, drive and hard work, anything is possible. I want my students to discover their unique talents and come out of my classroom believing in themselves and knowing that if they can dream it, they can accomplish it."
Summing up her efforts as a music teacher, Safari says, "I'm honored and humbled to have been a part of the lives of so many outstanding young men and women. I've taught them that hard work, persistence, patience, and humility will ultimately lead them to excellence and success. I cannot help but sing their praises for allowing me to give them the key—major and minor—to reaching the high notes of their own potential."

(music) - [Steven] We're standing at a terrace looking out over Rome and more specifically, over the Imperial Fora. - [Beth] A forum is something that you could find in any Roman city. It's a civic space. - [Steven] It was an administrative center, it was a commercial center, and it was a political and social center. - [Beth] So there was a long tradition of forums going back to the period of Ancient Rome and Republic and that's what we see in this space called the Roman Forum today. - [Steven] And then Julius Caesar starts a new tradition. He builds his own forum. - [Beth] The main area of the forum got too busy and Caesar wanted to showcase his own political power and so beginning with Caesar, we get a series of forums built by various emperors. - [Steven] There were quite a number. There was the Forum of Augustus. There was the Forum of Domitian, which became the Forum of Nerva. - [Beth] Including the one we're looking over now which is the Forum of Trajan. - [Steven] But Trajan had a problem. The real estate was already filled with the fora of the previous emperors. And so he turned to his architect, his engineer, Apollodorus of Damascus. And Apollodorus was tasked with removing the hill that was in the way or at least a good portion of it in order to build the forum. Unfortunately, what we see now are the foundations and the ruins and the walls of medieval houses that were built on that earlier classical structure. - [Beth] Perhaps archaeologists in the future will one day decide to dig deeper and to discover what remains of the Forum of Trajan. But we can see an area that was excavated that was Trajan's and that's the area of the Basilica Ulpia. - [Steven] Trajan's Forum is almost the size of all of the Imperial Fora put together. - [Beth] It was incredibly extravagant. There was an enormous ceremonial entrance way that led into the space of the forum. - [Steven] We think that at the top was a sculpture of a chariot pulled by six horses with the Emperor Trajan followed by the Goddess of Victory. - [Beth] Then once you enter the space of the forum, within the center was an equestrian sculpture, a sculpture showing Trajan on a horse. To get an idea of what that looked like, we can think of the equestrian sculpture of Marcus Aurelius that survived. - [Steven] This enormous space would be flanked by huge sloped areas which are called exedrae. But as we look forward, we would look at one flank of the largest basilica in Rome, the Basilica Ulpia. - [Beth] Imagine a public space filled with niches with sculpture in them, relief carvings, free standing sculpture commemorating the great emperors and politicians, and military leaders of ancient Rome. - [Steven] There were beautiful colored marbles in the paving stones as well as in the structures themselves. And that's beautifully exemplified by the Basilica Ulpia. Now, it's called the Basilica Ulpia because that's Trajan's family name. - [Beth] When we look out, we can at least see part of the enormous basilica. There would have been columns on all sides. - [Steven] And they would have extended beyond the area that has been excavated. - [Beth] And then beyond that, you went through yet another entrance way. There were two libraries on either side; one for Greek literature and one for Roman literature. And in the middle was the Column of Trajan. The Column of Trajan looks really lonely today, but there were buildings surrounding it. - [Steven] In fact, the Greek and Latin library were designed with porches, so that you can get a great view of the relief carving on the Column of Trajan. The Column of Trajan is in extraordinarily good condition considering that the rest of this area has been destroyed. - [Beth] Trajan expanded the Roman empire to it's largest boarders. He was a great military general. When you look at the Column of Trajan, the point was to see the story of Trajan's great military exploits, specifically the two campaigns which lasted over several years where he defeated the Dacians. Trajan was obviously proud of his military endeavors and his expansion of the empire. - [Steven] Throughout his Imperial Forum, Trajan had sculptures of captured Dacians, showing the Dacians as quite noble as formidable adversaries. - [Beth] But it was easy to recognize the Dacians because they looked very different from the Romans. They wore fringed shawls, they have beard and long hair. And so anyone looking at the sculptures could easily tell these were the defeated foes and there was a sense of the correctness of what the Romans had done. Everywhere one looked, you saw sculptures of the Romans conquering their enemies. - [Steven] And his success over the Dacians funded this monumental building campaign. - [Beth] So when you approach the forum, you would see the equestrian sculpture and then the Column of Trajan. And on top of the Column of Trajan, now, we see a sculpture of St. Peter, but originally, there's a sculpture of Trajan. - [Steven] The pillar is 125 feet tall and it marks the height of the hill that was removed by Apollodorus of Damascus in order to build the forum here. So it speaks to the Roman's interest in making nature subservient to man's will. - [Beth] So, we have the forum, beyond that, the Basilica Ulpia, beyond that, the libraries with the column in the center, and beyond that, Trajan had planned a temple. Temples were always part of forum complexes, but Trajan died before he could build it, but it was built by the succeeding Emperor Hadrian who built it in honor of the deified Trajan. - [Steven] This Imperial Forum with it's large open courtyard, with its basilica, with its libraries, with its column with its temple, would have been a civic space. It would have been a ceremonial space, but just adjacent to it, built into the hill, and in part, helping to hold the hill up, is the Markets of Trajan and most of this area survives intact. - [Beth] And it's a museum today. - [Steven] So often, when we think of Ancient Rome and architecture, we think of forums, we think of temples, but in fact, the Romans were extremely adept at building dense, multi-storey buildings very much like our modern shopping malls or apartment buildings. - [Beth] And this is because the Romans perfected the use of concrete. So let's go inside and look at some of the spaces in the Markets of Trajan. (music)


(6) the Government of the Republic of Uganda must henceforth respect in full the right of the Democratic Republic of the Congo to sovereignty, political independence and territorial integrity, and the fundamental rights and freedoms of all persons on the territory of the Democratic Republic of the Congo.
Both Parties must, forthwith, take all measures necessary to ensure full respect within the zone of conflict for fundamental human rights and for the applicable provisions of humanitarian law.
Done in French and in English, the French text being authoritative, at the Peace Palace, The Hague, this first day of July two thousand, in three copies, one of which will be placed in the archives of the Court and the others transmitted to the Government of the Democratic Republic of the Congo and the Government of Uganda, respectively.
Judges ODA and KOROMA append declarations to the Order of the Court.
1. I voted in favour of the Court's Order only because I could not but agree that, in order to restore peace in the region, the measures indicated by the Court in this Order should be taken by the Parties - measures on which few would ever disagree.
2. I believe, however, that the Court is not in a position at this time to grant provisional measures for the reason that the present case, brought unilaterally by the Democratic Republic of the Congo against Uganda on 23 June 1999, is - and has from the outset been - inadmissible.
3. The Applicant claims that the disputes are related to "acts of armed aggression perpetrated by Uganda on the territory of the Democratic Republic of the Congo". Various relevant resolutions adopted by the Security Council in the past few years appear to indicate that the "armed aggression" might be the result of political turmoil in the Democratic Republic of the Congo, caused by fighting between rival factions and government forces and involvement in that internal friction by the armed forces of foreign countries, including Uganda.
4. The mere allegation by the Applicant that there has been "armed aggression" perpetrated by the Respondent in its territory does not mean that legal disputes exist between these Parties concerning (i) the alleged breach of the Applicant's rights by the Respondent or the alleged failure of the Respondent to observe its international legal obligations to the Applicant, and (ii) the denial by the Respondent of the Applicant's allegations.
The Applicant in this case did not, in its Application, show us that both Parties had attempted to identify the legal disputes existing between them and to resolve those disputes by negotiation. Without such a mutual effort by the Parties, a mere allegation of armed aggression cannot be deemed suitable for judicial settlement by the Court.
The issues arising from unstable conditions in a disintegrating State cannot constitute legal disputes before this Court, whose main function is to deal with the rights and obligations of States. Unilateral referral to the Court of acts of armed aggression in which a State is directly involved does not fall within the purview of Article 36, paragraph 2, of the Court's Statute.
5. I do not need to point out that the United Nations Charter provides for the settlement, through the Security Council, of disputes raising issues of armed aggression and threats to international peace, of the type seen [p 132] in the present case. In fact, the Security Council, as well as the Secretary-General acting on its instructions, has made every effort over the past several years to ease the situation and restore peace in the region.
6. I contend that the Application in the present case is inadmissible. I am aware that the issue of admissibility may well be dealt with at the merits stage of the case. I believe, however, that the present case lacks, even prima facie, the element of admissibility. The jurisprudence of the Court shows that judgments rendered by the Court and provisional measures indicated by it in advance of the merits phase have not necessarily been complied with by the respondent States or by the parties.
If the Court agrees to be seised of the application or request for the indication of provisional measures of one State in such circumstances, then the repeated disregard of the judgments or orders of the Court by the parties will inevitably impair the dignity of the Court and raise doubt as to the judicial role to be played by the Court in the international community.
7. It is a principle that the Court's jurisdiction is founded on the consent of the States parties to the dispute and that declarations under the optional clause accepting the Court's compulsory jurisdiction may be made only if they arise from the bona fide will of the State. One can hardly believe that the present case stems from any legal dispute between two parties appearing willingly and in good faith before the Court.
If the Court admits applications or grants requests for provisional measures on the condition that an application is admissible, I am afraid that States that have accepted the compulsory jurisdiction of the Court under Article 36, paragraph 2, of the Court's Statute will be inclined to withdraw their declarations, and fewer States will accede to the compromissory clauses of multilateral treaties.
By this Order, the Court recognized on the basis of information available to it and took judicial notice that, since the recent outbreak of hostilities in Kisangani resulting in a serious breach of the peace, the Congolese civilian population has suffered irreparable harm and injury with hundreds killed and thousands injured; that national assets, including monuments, have also been destroyed; that for these reasons unless measures are urgently taken to safeguard the rights of the Congolese population and to preserve human life, they may be further imperilled. The matter is therefore, without question, one of urgency and exceptional gravity. The Court, in the case concerning the United States Diplomatic and Consular Staff in Tehran (Provisional Measures, Order of 15 December 1979, I.C.J. Reports 1979, p. 20, para. 42) and in that concerning the Land and Maritime Boundary between Cameroon and Nigeria (Cameroon v. Nigeria) (Provisional Measures, Order of 15 March 1996, I.C.J. Reports 1996 (I), p. 23, para. 42), held that death and injury to persons are to be considered irreparable damage. The Court has made an analogous determination in this case. The legal criteria for granting the Order were, accordingly, all satisfied.
While the Order recognizes that Security Council resolution 1304 (2000) of 16 June 2000 calls on all parties to cease hostilities, the Court, as a court of law and given its position as the principal judicial organ of the United Nations, juridically assessed the issues and has cast its Order in accordance with judicial norms. The Order must, therefore, be seen in the light of Article 59 of the Statute of the Court and Article 94 of the United Nations Charter. The Order enjoins both Parties to take all measures necessary to respect fundamental human rights and the applicable provisions of humanitarian law, and to prevent their armed forces, or other groups under their authority or control, from taking any action which might prejudice the rights of the other Party in respect of any judgment the Court may render in the case, or which might aggravate or extend the dispute.
Thus, in endeavouring to preserve the peace as well as preserve the rights of the Parties, the Order is to be seen as part of the process of the judicial settlement of the dispute. It is, accordingly, of special significance for the Parties, who should refrain from any action which might aggra-[p 135]vate or extend the dispute, thereby preventing further harm to the population in the zone of conflict.
The Order in no way prejudges the facts or the merits of the case.
