The imperfections in the market for legal services are significant. Most notably, clients often lack information about which lawyers are in fact better than others, and can rely on status heuristics to make consumption choices - e.g.., employing the most expensive lawyer they can afford on the grounds that a higher price must indicate a better lawyer. While some information problems are difficult to overcome in the legal services market - a client may never know whether she achieved a good result in a case because she had a good lawyer, or whethe she won because any doofus could have won a case that straightforward - here's a website that tries to provide some useful information to consumers of legal services: Solicitors From Hell. Thanks to Kim Economides for the reference.
Could a Justice Kagan Write a Letter of Recommendation for Miguel Estrada?
"A judge should not lend the prestige of the judicial office to advance the private interests of others..."
Could a judge or justice write in support of judicial nominee? For example, could Justice Stevens have written a letter to the Judiciary Committee urging Kagan's confirmation? And if he could, could a different justice write to the committee and urge a no vote?
I realize the Code of Conduct does not literally bind the Justices but the questions are worth asking.
In an opinion that once again raises concerns about the state's shortage of funds for indigent capital defense, a divided Georgia Supreme Court has sent a death penalty case back to the trial court to determine if a systemic breakdown in the state's public defender system deprived the defendant of counsel.
If the lower court finds that there was a systemic breakdown affecting this particular defendant, an indigent Vietnamese immigrant who allegedly killed another Vietnamese man and his 2-year-old son and severely injured the man's wife in execution-style, back-of-the-head shootings, Justice Harold D. Melton wrote for the majority in the 4-3 decision, then that determination must be factored into an analysis of whether the defendant's speedy trial rights were violated.
In a concurrence, Justice David E. Nahmias appeared to suggest a solution.
"The trial court may take aggressive action to safeguard the public interest and preclude a speedy trial violation ... and the District Attorney has the authority to dismiss the death penalty notice, if that will make adequate funding available to the defense and allow for a speedy trial of this case," Nahmias wrote.
Then Nahmias, a former Northern District of Georgia U.S. Attorney, pointed out the alternative, citing U.S. Supreme Court precedent: "Once a constitutional speedy trial violation is found to exist, however, the remedy will be dismissal of the case."
Donald Schaff is charged with various crimes related to his alleged molestation of M. S., who is also his minor daughter. We granted his application for interlocutory appeal to review the trial court's order granting the State's motion to disqualify defense counsel, Kevin Gough, whom the court determined would be a necessary witness with regard to a videotaped recant of the victim. For the following reasons, we reverse the disqualification order. Schaff also enumerates as error the trial court's order preventing him from interviewing the victim prior to trial, but we discern no error with regard to that enumeration.
A fitting tribute. Details here.
North Dakota is now the second state to adopt the NCBE's Uniform Bar Exam (following Missouri's recent announcement). Previous coverage about this potentially important trend is here, here, and here.
A magistrate judge in Manhattan rejected Gucci's claim of attorney client privilege for communications between company officers and inhouse "lawyer" Jonathan Moss, who is a law graduate (Fordham 1993) and was a member of the CA bar until 1996 or 1997, and then became inactive. The MJ said that Gucci failed to check his bar status and was therefore unreasonable.
This decision is wrong. Gucci officers acted reasonably. The fact that they COULD easily have discovered his inactive status (stressed in the opinion and by Guess?) doesn't mean they were unreasonable in accepting that he was a lawyer under the facts of the case. And a lawyer can be inactive one place and active elsewhere.
Moss had originally been referred to Gucci in 2002 as an inhouse hire by an outside firm (Patton Boggs) and had been practicing at Gucci since, rising to vice president and director of legal services. So he acted and sounded like a real lawyer and except for the stupidity of practicing while inactive in the only state where he had been admitted, he could have fooled anyone.
One wonders: How many law firms would check his status if he had sought to move to a firm?
A lawyer can let his status lapse anytime. Active today, inactive tomorrow. Is there an ongoing need periodically to check status?
The district judge gets the final say. I hope she rejects the conclusion. The idea that checking status on these facts is required for reasonable client behavior is wrong IMHO.
That aside, Moss is in deep yoghurt. He created this risk for his client. What if any future can he possibly have now?
The American Bar Association and its nearly 400,000 members—indeed, all practicing lawyers in the United States—are gratified that the House and Senate conferees on the financial markets reform legislation have recognized the importance of maintaining the historic role of state supreme courts' regulatory authority over the practice of law.
Practicing lawyers are regulated under strict codes of professional conduct that are enforced at the state level, usually by state bar associations that exercise disciplinary authority delegated to them by state supreme courts. As "officers of the court," lawyers are required to adhere to extensive regulations governing all aspects of the practice of law, and those who fail to comply are subject to severe penalties. There is no need for a federal layer of regulatory authority over these lawyers, as was first proposed in this legislation, and the ABA, along with state and local bars and our concerned members, has been diligent in engaging and assisting Congress on this subject. Our efforts have paid off.
The ABA is profoundly grateful to House Judiciary Committee Chairman John Conyers and Rep. Maxine Waters, who strongly advocated for respecting the interests of the state courts and the practicing lawyers licensed by those courts, while at the same time ensuring full protection for consumer interests. This was accomplished by tying the practice-of-law exclusion to the existence of an attorney-client relationship with the consumer client. Senate Banking Committee Chairman Chris Dodd and House Financial Services Chairman Barney Frank ultimately agreed with this perspective, we appreciate their sensitivity to retaining the traditional supervisory role of the states in regulating lawyers.

The White Boat
Gustave De Smet (1877 Gand - 1943 Deurle)
Oil on canvas, on cardboard ; 39.5 x 45 cm

Gustave De Smet is, with Constant Permeke, one of the main protagonists of the "second school of Sint-Martens-Latem". This village on the banks of the Lys, a few kilometers from Ghent, gathered from 1905 to 1914 a group of neo-impressionist painters or, as they are called in France, Fauves, who would evolve after the war towards expressionism.
At the same time, on the banks of the Elbe, near Dresden, the painters of the "Die Brücke" group worked on the same subject, under the title Barge(s) on the Elbe : Erich Heckel in 1904 (private collection), Ernst Ludwig Kirchner in 1910 (Bloomington, University Art Museum). The same thing, on the banks of the Seine, for André Derain who painted Les Deux péniches (The Two Barges) in 1906 (Paris, Musée National d'Art Moderne).
While the Impressionists wanted, in their own way, to be faithful to nature, the Fauves or the Die Brücke group focused on their own emotions in front of this same nature which they expressed through color and an insistent and nervous touch. In this work, it seems to dance with the water, to flatten itself on the hull and the bank, to dilute itself in the sky. In a certain way, it identifies itself with its subject.
The contemporary painter Peter Doig will confront the same subject with White Canoe (1990-1991). Quite a success as the work broke a record at public auction at 5.7 million pounds... More modest in its pretentions, our painting remains nevertheless quite moving.

When using SoapClient->__soapCall with parameters, the request  is incorrectly encoded regarding the method parameters. The first SoapParam is also ignored.
// BUG: __soapCall *IGNORES* the first parameter!
As requested, I attempted the same code with the latest snapshot (php5-200506161630) but __soapCall continues to exhibit the same buggy behavior as before. As such, the problem doesn't appear to have been corrected yet. Thank you!
The ext/soap is match easy in usage then you expected.
You don't need to use SoapParam if you use WSDL.
I have the same problem as "cmantunes" (I'm using an WSDL too), and many more at the same request.
#2. After adding a bogus first parameter, the request got the method name closed and, the param was placed after it, just like the guy mentioned. And, also with the wrong name, the param should be "arg0" and it was displayed as "param1".
#4. When using Apache 2.2.X on Windows and requesting a WSDL through HTTPS "new SoapClient" crashes Apache. It works fine just on IIS, I tested with several PHP versions and, also the latest (currently 5.3.6).
I had tried the suggested code by Dmitry before and it didn't work out.
Unhappily I made workarounds at the __doRequest to solve my immediate problems.
Here are the fixes I had to make in order to get it working for *my* needs. I believe it will help the other users that had this problem (I found many cases on internet, but no fixes).
Loading the WSDL through PHP instead of letting the SoapClient do this job, avoids breaking Apache. I noticed it breaks just here, while loading the wsdl through *HTTPS*.
Adding a bogus parameter to the beginning, since the SoapClient is "eating" the first argument.
Placing the "lost" arguments inside the function node, their right place.
Removing boundary from the XML result, this must be part of a standard as the calls works fine on other tools, the SoapClient should be able to handle it.

US instructors work on Anatolia's Phrygian capital
ANKARA - Anatolia News Agency
Pennsylvania Museum specialist Ayşe Gürsan Salzmann makes a presentation about archaeological excavation work in Ankara's ancient city of Gordion. AA photo
U.S. Pennsylvania Museum specialists who are conducting excavation work at the ancient city of Gordion in Central Anatolia made a presentation on July 4 at the Polatlı Municipality City Hall.
Information about the excavations and the protection of the ecosystem were the major topics of the presentation.
Gordion was the capital of the ancient Phrygian civilization, and is now located next to the village of Yassıhöyük, near the modern town of Polatlı.
"Our concern is that the tumuli and mounds are completely surrounded by fields, which means that we are losing the history. We want to prevent this by cooperating with the municipality," Pennsylvania Museum specialist Ayşe Gürsan Salzmann said in her presentation. She said it was not a classical excavation in Gordion, so it was progressing slowly.
"We won't discover large buildings, baths or stadiums, it's just a detection of the buildings and ecosystem of that period. Excavations will go on in Yassıhöyük."
Environment conditions
Also speaking at the presentation, Naomi Miller of the Pennsylvania Museum said the fields should not be plowed and that they aimed to enrich the environmental economics and develop tourism by protecting the mounds.
"The most economical and permanent conservation plan should comply with the environment conditions. We started with the eco-park work as an excavation team. This is a four-part project. We are making an erosion control plan on Midas tumulus. We established a weed garden in Yassıhöyük. We use plants to protect the archeological site. We would like to expand the protected area in order to save the small mounds and historical landscape," said Miller.
Mayor Yakup Çelik, University of North Carolina instructor and the head of the Gordion archeological excavations, Professor Kenneth Sams, Professor Brian Rose also joined the presentation.

Who's the boss?
Nadeem F. Paracha
Updated 24 Nov, 2016 12:01am
Illustration by Zehra Nawab
Who's the boss? Well, in the context of the world, no one's the boss. The world is quite boss-less at the moment — which is kind of scary. Thus, it's quite reassuring to know that such is not the case in Pakistan. We do have a boss, and, no, he's not the guy who was elected as the prime minister in 2013.
General Raheel Sharif is the boss. There's no hiding the fact. Nor was this ever hidden, as such. And neither is there any amount of treachery in claiming this. Even the prime minister knows this, though he is not all that comfy about it.
General Sharif is really good at what he's good at, unlike his immediate predecessor, whose definition of good meant the good bad and the bad bad, if you get my drift. He was suave too, but more like a king-making politico than a boss boss.
Technically, the prime minister is the boss of the boss. In reality though, well, we all know. However, despite some misgivings on the issue of who the world thinks is the boss in Pakistan, I believe the prime minister is largely fine with his technically subservient and realistic boss.
Also read: What is Pakistani art? By Farid Alvie
He could not have gotten a better man. Because, so far, the boss hasn't played any of that shadowy politics which many of his predecessors were so fond of playing. Instead, he took the initiative to do what all our technical bosses, big and small, were not so sure about: he went to war with the very scary ones. And then he began to win this war.
So the prime minister, I think, is fine with that. Not entirely, but kind of. However, the boss has been rather confusing for a lot of other folks. He just hasn't been what he was expected to be. Most religious parties are not very happy with him. He's just not what the previous bosses were like: accommodating.
He even ends up confusing the not-very-pious-yet-posing-to-be-pious lot, such as Imran Khan and some very animated TV guys. They just can't make head or tails of his moves: when they expect him to move one way, he moves the other; when they expect him to do one thing, he does two very different things; when they expect him to come their way, he takes the highway.
When all of them run up to the highway, he goes to meet his soldiers on some remote mountain or hill which is only reachable by a helicopter.
He confuses the jamhooriat lot too. They desperately want him to behave like bosses usually do and did, but on many occasions, he has done what the jamhoories ought to have done but didn't.
Also read: Who feels safe is Pakistan? By Zarrar Khuhro
Someone recently told me that the boss reminded him of Ayub Khan. Yes, that capitalist, liberal fascist dictator. I don't think the boss is anything like Khan. Because he's just too quiet. Too reserved. Too busy. Nobody's really seen him speak. But they do all talk about him. As if he just had coffee with them. Or so they wish.
The boss is certainly not like the boss who followed Ayub Khan. The hefty guy who just wasn't good at what he was supposed to be good at. The chap who was more interested in listening to tunes crooned to him by the great Madam.
He is definitely, positively, nothing like that foxy boss who confused politics with piety, and then piously rearranged everything according to his idea of piety, making a pie out of piety and then eating it too. What an awkward boss he was. One can still see him in so much of what has gone so very wrong in the Republic.
Nor is the boss like the man-child who came in and tried to be like Ayub Khan, but ended being one long self-parodying skit!
You know, whenever I praise the boss, I get trolls coming from the far right, and trolls coming from the far left, pushing me right down in the middle. I'm fine with being in the middle. Because, I believe, that's where the boss is too — even though I still haven't had any coffee with him.

Very, very well-written. This is the first NFP article I like, and it's amazing!
Ahmar Qureshi
Respected Paracha sb, all your writings gives the reader a roller coaster trip! :-D I do support the Boss as well but I have a fear that Boss's supporters might face the charges the derailing of damn-o-crazy, dew-mocracy or democracy!
Your remark about Ayub Khan is as unwarranted as your silly humour. Show some Moral Courage which you don't have, and post my comment.
Irfan Sahotra
Great Paracha sb...
The boss, with his apparent clean past and present, the family he belongs too, has the moral courage to do what he is doing. He deserves to be the boss.
NFP, You said everything that most people know and want to say, but you didn't. Great way to describe the current situation of the Boss, who isn't. ..An Admirer of writings and DAWN
RAVEENDRA NATH
Yes, everyone knows he is the BOSS, but you said it openly. Foreign dignitaries visiting Pakistan make it a point to meet the boss. In fact instead of courting Mian Saheb, Modi should have interacted with the boss.
Madhava, India.
I like anything written by NFP. No names other than one Raheel. Since I am from India & knowing Pakistan late, it takes 3 -4 readings to understand "boss", "PM is the boss of the boss.", " boss who followed Ayub", " like that foxy boss ", like the man-child who came in and tried to be like Ayub but ended being one long self-parodying skit!". But this is NFP, making people to think. Thank you for the writings.

Having one strong boss is good for Pakistan. Western type democracy does not work well for Islamic countries. Caliphate or military dictatorship is the best. Pakistan is trying to have its cake and eat it too, by having a lame duck gentleman civilian prime minister and a gentleman military boss. But then that suits the military to exercise power without accountability. There wont be peace in Iraq and Libya till another dictator emerges in those countries. One must remember what Alexander Pope said: "For forms of government let fools contest. Whatever is administered best is best"

Qaiser Ijaz
Well, I have my doubts, the boss is no different from the rest of the bosses. The noise of "zero-tolerance-towards-corruption" is not-very-true-yet-posing-to-be-true. He could have done better within his own parent organization to evade corruption.
ahsan7979
There is only one boss. Read the constitution, you will understand who is the real boss...
SABMREEN
@ Full Toss,,, you do sound like taliban khan. if we can aspire western type education,technological facilities and many more things that we try to inculcate in ourselves then why not democracy. Pakistan will never develop unless and until we make our army sideline from our diplomacy be it in the foreign policy making,domestic and so on and so forth.

I would love to see The General in power and just go on doing what he is doing otherwise we will never come out of this corruption and terrorism and I would also like to see the great Democrats behind Bars.
Since when you moved to the center. Seems like course correction is happening, or have you become a pragmatist?
A I Raza
After reading this, it feels like boss is the jason bourne of Pakistan @@
There is no doubt that the picture portrayed in this article represents the real boss in Pakistan.He does what he does best.He sits across the table with Mian Sahib and either tells him what he is going to do or what he has done for Pakistan.The PM patiently listens to him and there ends the story.It is comforting to see that it suits the PM and it becomes the Policy decision of the Govt.This situation may change after the so called real boss retires at the completion of his term in September.
@Full Toss While it's true that Democracy hasn't worked for Pakistan and I doubt it will in the next decade or so but Martial Law definitely put us way behind. You can see that than the other Countries progressed well with democracy in place. Question is which is the better of the two Devils (Democracy or ML)? My gut feeling says that the later is the best choice... A good Military dictator who is fully sincere to Pakistan can hang all the corrupt politicians or put them in gallows... thereby freeing up our beautiful Pakistan from these vultures. Just my two cents...
ahaq
Do we really need a boss, Can't they all work together as a group like elsewhere under true democracies
@Full Toss you are indirectly insulting Muslim as people who are not good people and can only be ruled by tyrants with iron fist.
Nawaz Sharif is the boss full stop.
Itivrat
I now know what sycophantic mixed with obnoxious sounds like.... If these thoughts have a public resonance no wonder Pakistan is the basket case it is.
Analogy - 1 house has 2 uncles. 1 with a hunter and other with a smile on the face. 1 uncle creates problem with neighbors and scare family members. Feared members oblige. One with smiley face loot members and promises great future. Members know they are prey to this but don't know what to do.
Azhar
Not the usual NFP stuff...Wondering! has the time come for you as it comes to most?
The real boss in Pakistan is General Raheel Sharif, but it is not politically right to say that. Because officially and politically Nawaz Sharif should be and is the boss. But not the real boss (which is also politically wrong to say )

The real boss is the undisputed Cowboy Sheriff of the World.

Ncube condemns arbitrary arrests

Source: Ncube condemns arbitrary arrests – The Zimbabwe Independent
Miriam Mangwaya
ALPHA Media Holdings chairman Trevor Ncube (pictured) has condemned the arrest of journalist Hopewell Chin'ono and senior MDC-Alliance party members — Job Sikhala and Fadzayi Mahere — saying the incarceration tramples upon civil liberties.
In a statement, Ncube, who is a member of President Emmerson Mnangagwa's advisory council, said the state should direct its attention on allegations of police brutality to fulfil its duties of ensuring safety of citizens.
The trio is accused of communicating falsehoods after they allegedly posted on social media that a police officer had killed a nine-month-old baby.
Police dismissed the reports.
However, Chin'ono, Sikhala and Mahere are challenging their placement on remand arguing that Section 31(a)(iii) of the Criminal Law (Codification and Reform) Act under which they are charged is "non-existent". The magistrates handling the cases have since ruled that the law was never struck off.
Ncube said charging the three under a law that was struck down by the Constitutional Court in 2014 was a violation of their right to free speech.
"Zimbabwe's constitution guarantees the right to freedom of expression and the state must curtail its assault of this right," he said.
"Over the past six months, Hopewell Chin'ono has been in and out of the courts and the Chikurubi Maximum Security Prison on charges relating to his work as a journalist. An attack on Chin'ono's right to freedom of expression limits the right of citizens to know what is going on in the country.
"The response of the state should be to set the record straight not arrest or harass those who express themselves freely."
Human rights activists and foreign embassies have strongly criticised the government over the arrests.

En silo  (plural silor) är en förvaringsbyggnad konstruerad som en enda stor behållare. Silor används för att förvara bulklast som lätt kan hällas in och ut, såsom säd, socker, djurfoder och cement. Byggnadstypen lämpar sig även för förvaring av raketer, men raketsilor för militärt bruk är underjordiska eller inbyggda i en båts skrov för att skydda raketen, endast locket sticker upp.

Äldre spannmålsmagasin och lagerhus, där säden förvarades i säckar eller bingar, började under slutet av 1800-talet att ersättas av silor. Stordriftfördelar gjorde att man provade nya byggnadsmaterial. Den första glidformsgjutna betongsilon i Sverige byggdes 1956 i Vadstena, ritad av Norrköpings stadsarkitekt Kurt von Schmalensee.

Fram till 1980-talet byggdes i Sverige (och Norden) mest stora silor i betong. Flera sammanfogade silotorn kallas för silobatteri. Anledningen till denna typ av konstruktion är att hållfastheten för en så hög byggnad blir bättre. På silobatteriets så kallade mellangolv finns inspektionsluckor och här mynnar de transportanordningar som fyller på silocellerna ut.

Operation Blåljus
Numera har många av de stora anläggningarna i Sverige som ägdes av Lantmännen lagts ner av besparingsskäl. Detta skedde inom "Operation Blåljus", som syftade till att öka intäkterna för koncernen och bland annat kunna ge lantbrukarna mer betalt.. En del anläggningar såldes till privata intressenter som drev verksamheten vidare . Många gårdar har egna silotorn. När bönderna senare ökade sin odling och priserna på marknaden ökade valde Lantmännen att spara vissa anläggningar i egen regi . Dock valde många lantbrukare ändå att lägga ner sin verksamhet eller bygga egna anläggningar eftersom det blev för långt till Lantmännens mottagningsplatser .
Med en egen silo och spannmålstork, kan man behålla en del av spannmålen på gården och själv välja när man ska sälja. Man är inte tvungen att sälja allt direkt vid skörd.

Konstruktion och lagring

År 2009 byggs nästan uteslutande stålsilor för spannmålslagring. Väggen i en stålsilo är av profilerad stålplåt. Silon levereras normalt som platt paket, och byggs på platsen.

För lagring av foder, till exempel för kycklingar, används ofta silor av glasfiber. Foder lagras ofta endast kortare perioder på gården, därför är glasfibersilon oftast betydligt mindre än stålsilon.

Temperaturövervakning
Oavsett silotyp är det viktigt att övervaka den lagrade produkten vid längre än sex månaders lagringstid. Våren, då utomhustemperaturen stiger efter vintern och solen börjar värma, är en känslig tid. En enkel plåtvägg värms upp på ett helt annat sätt än en kraftig betongvägg; detta torde göra lagringsmiljön i en plåtkonstruktion mer känslig för påverkan av sol, väder och vind.

Eftersom allt biologiskt liv och aktivitet skapar mer eller mindre värme kan de flesta problem detekteras med temperatursensorer. I en hög cylindrisk silo hänger man in linor med sensorer från taket eller från balkar under taket. Dessa mätlinor är försedda med flera sensorer och på så vis kan temperaturen inne i den lagrade produkten mätas och temperaturen kan kontrolleras från ett kontrollrum eller liknande, även om mängden produkt ökar eller minskar.

Vattenhalt

Man vill normalt undvika att blanda spannmål med olika vattenhalt i samma lagringssilo. Därför finns det intagsgivare, en sensor monterad i tippgropen som ger operatören en ungefärlig vattenhalt på det parti spannmål som just tippats. Operatören kan då välja om partiet ska gå direkt till den ena eller andra silon, eller först till spannmålstork.

Säkerhet vid arbete

Stor försiktighet bör iakttagas när man ger sig in i en silo. Går man in i en tom silo för att göra rent mellan säsongerna bör andningsskydd användas.

Mögel / mögelsporer finns överallt, finns det också tillgång till vatten kan tillväxten starta.

All öppen eld och rökning är förbjuden på grund av explosions- och brandrisken.

I en helt eller delvis fylld silo kan det finnas håligheter i lagervaran. Dessa kaviteter kan rasa ihop när någon rör sig på ytan av produkten. Risken för ras är störst om man redan har tömt ut en del av spannmålen. Räddningsaktioner är svåra och därför skall silor hållas låsta.

ATEX
All elektrisk utrustning i en silo ska vara godkänd enligt EU:s ATEX-direktiv avseende explosionsfara i dammbemängd miljö. Man delar in olika platser i en siloanläggning i olika zoner, inne i lagringsutrymmet i silon är det zon 20. Ovan mellangolvet i en betongsilo är det zon 21, alltså en zon som anses något mindre farlig, än zon 20.

Antennmaster
I nyare tid är siloanläggningarnas tak populära platser för att sätta upp antennmaster för mobiltelefoni. Detta kan ge vissa extra inkomster och tack vare höjden ger en montering på en silo god täckning i omgivningen.

I finished something this week.
I've been so busy taking care of sites and writing and getting things organized that I haven't had a lot of time to work on new projects.
I'm super happy to have finished this one. I thought a black sheep was missing from my little family of sheep.
All the bright colors cheered me up as I stitched them. It's warming up slowly, but it's been so gray and rainy that the flowers are slow to open, but they are!
I hope your spring is full of flowers!

Conservation Genetics of Large Mammals in the Brazilian Atlantic Forest, Brazil
The project Conservation Genetics of Large Mammals in the Brazilian Atlantic Forest/Brazil is focused on acquiring basic genetic information on six mammalian species populations (jaguar, puma, ocelot, lowland tapir, and white-lipped and collared peccaries) in the Pontal do Paranapanema Region. This information will be employed to infer pathways used by the animals to move around in the landscape, and finally pinpoint crucial areas for conservation. The Pontal do Paranapanema (located at the western tip of the State of São Paulo) was once fully covered by forest (the Atlantic Forest of the Interior, a unique habitat comprised of semi-deciduousforest, and home to some unique species, such as the Black Lion Tamarin). In a process starting in the 1950's that took roughly 2 decades, the entire region was transformed into a patch work of pasture and sugar-cane plantations. The little of the original cover that is left over is concentrated in the Morro do Diabo State Park, and in 12 other larger forest fragments across the Region.
Currently, a major effort is being undertaken by the Instituto para Pesquisas Ecolãs (Institute for Ecological Research, IPÊ- www.ipe.org.br) to implement actions for the conservation and recuperation of the original habitat in conjunction with the local population. This project fits into the program by pinpointing the natural corridors used by the animals so as to maximize the effect of the conservation efforts by concentrating them on where it really matters. Furthermore, the data collected here will give us an idea of the amount and distribution of genetic diversity in the landscape. Which, in turn, will assist in the long term management of these populations, for it will allow us to manage the most basic level of biodiversity: genetic diversity.

Android-powered I'm Watch gets official October 25th
Jordan Kahn
- Oct. 18th 2011 9:06 am PT
@JordanKahn
Although we already got our first look at it back in August, the Android-powered I'm Watch smartphone/wristwatch hybrid is another step closer to hitting the market. The company has announced we will get our first hands on look at the device during ARM TechCon on October 25th in Santa Clara.
Other than the 249 € (~$340) price tag, we don't learn much new info. The app will come with a selection of apps specifically optimized for the smaller screen. All the usual suspects will be included– weather, stocks, Twitter, Facebook, etc. Of course the company will be urging developers to get their apps ready when the I'm Watch SDK is eventually released.
Included in the device, which sports a 1.54" (240×240) TFT display, is an ARM IMX233 processor, 64MB RAM, 4GB Flash memory, built-in speaker and mic, 3.5mm headphone jack, and Bluetooth 2.1. It also packs in a rechargeable Li-Po 400 MAh battery which provides up to 30 hours standby and 3 hours talk time on speaker phone.
We're still curious to find out how the device interacts with iPhone, which the company claims it supports. The company is obviously hoping the device will make an impact when it eventually becomes available, although we're unsure how the market will react to the price tag and lack of support from developers.
