The Italian government squanders are so numerous that it is difficult to count them all. They spent 184 million euros to buy a flu vaccine that was totally useless. Novartis obtained a contract from the Italian government with no possibility of refund that is very advantageous to the company, to say the least. The National Audit Office had complained in vain on the secrecy of the contract. It must have been entirely accidental that the wife of the minister who has signed it, Sacconi, is director of the Pharmaceutical industrial association.

Stafford, 59, was seen walking into the woman’s bedroom, rifling through her drawers, and selecting a pair of knickers he wanted to wear.
The bachelor, who had twice been elected mayor of Preesall and Knott End, near Fleetwood, Lancs, then performed a sex act before leaving the building.
Police later found a collection of underwear, identical to the items reported stolen, at his home.
The woman who made the recording was one of three Stafford targeted between January 1 and June 26 last year.
She decided to install a hidden camera after noticing that some of her underwear was disappearing.
Two other victims also contacted police over the disappearance of items of their own underwear.
At Preston Crown Court the disgraced mayor, who carried out the offences while working as a part-time gardener and handyman, pleaded guilty to three counts of burglary.
The case was adjourned for reports until February 5.
Stafford has no previous convictions, but Judge Philip Sycamore warned him not to “draw any conclusions” about the severity of his sentence.
“All sentencing options are open,” he said.
At an earlier hearing Pam Smith, prosecuting, told local magistrates that the offences involved “a breach of trust where the victims have been betrayed and traumatised”.
She added: “At least one of the victims is elderly. The defendant has built up a business in the community and being elected mayor facilitated him an additional level of trust.” (continued at link)Stafford, 59, was seen walking into the woman’s bedroom, rifling through her... more

Bad girls are fun in parties and sex, but boring in family life
Millions of girls that live on planet Earth and make men's lives better, brighter and healthier, can generally be divided into two major categories: good girls and bad girls. Of course, if a man meets one of the girls from the second of the two categories, his life will get nerve-racking, dull and sick. An evaluation criterion is quite simple. It has to do with a stranger asking a girl for favors. A good girl will say a quick and categorical "no" while a bad one will ask the man "when". There is a set of virtues and shortcomings both types of the girls are bestowed with.
Let us talk about the bad girls first and make a list of their unquestionable virtues.
Their ability to be great fun is on top of the list. They can party all night and they can party the next day too. They laugh a lot, they are fond of flirting. Anybody can feel like a professional lady-killer when hanging out with them.
Bad girls have an optimistic attitude to life. They are full of energy. They do not indulge in self-analysis. They do not tend to fall into a period of depression. Life is a never-ending show for them.

Adam Serwer observes: "Conservatives regularly overestimate the beneficial effects of shame. Shame provokes response in the form of impulse, not long term planning. A person who is ashamed isn't going to think, "I'd better get a degree" or "I'd better get married," they're going to think in the short term about what they can do to rectify their sense of self-worth.
How do you see people--men in particular--act when they're ashamed? You rarely see them do something like get married or get a fantastic job; usually they're going to hurt or exploit someone, make them feel as low as they do--this is the lesson learned by the shamed from the shamer, regardless of the lesson the shamer thinks they're teaching the shamed."
Megan McArdle responds: "Serwer is right that shame makes a hard lot harder. But I don't think he is right about the value of shame. Without shame, what are you left with? It's accepting that you have no way to regulate peoples' behavior within the social network short of brute force or bribery.
It is true that people who are ashamed often do not behave well. But they often behave badly precisely because they are trying to deflect their shame. People do a lot of things to avoid being shamed. Why do small towns have lower rates of crime, and lesser antisocial behaviors like cutting people off in traffic or queue jumping, than big cities? Are people in small towns more inherently virtuous? Or are they afraid of what the neighbors will think?
That's why shame is a more powerful counterweight to, say, having unprotected sex in a mad moment, or moving in with your boyfriend, than less punitive measures. It's a more powerful counterweight than the distant, fuzzy knowledge that babies are sometimes expensive and tend to scream a lot. It works because it hurts. And pain is nature's way of saying, "Don't do that!!!""

World powers ignore treaty to ban cluster bombs
Russia News.Net
Saturday 13th December, 2008
Who would not agree to the banning of cluster bombs that have killed and maimed tens of thousands of civilians around the world? Answer: United States, Israel, China, Russia, India and Pakistan.
The United States, Russia and China are sending a terrible message to the rest of the world by refusing to take part in the historic signing of a treaty that bans the production and use of cluster bombs.
In a world that is plagued by war, military occupation and terrorism, the involvement of the great military powers in signing and ratifying the agreement would have signaled – if even symbolically - the willingness of these countries to spare civilians’ unjustifiable deaths and the lasting scars of war.
Nonetheless, the incessant activism of many conscientious individuals and organizations came to fruition on December 3-4 when ninety-three countries signed a treaty in Oslo, Norway that bans the weapon, which has killed and maimed many thousands of civilians.
The accord was negotiated in May, and should go into effect in six months, once it is ratified by 30 countries. There is little doubt that the treaty will be ratified; in fact, many are eager to be a member of the elite group of 30. Unfortunately, albeit unsurprisingly, the US, Russia, China, Israel, India and Pakistan – a group that includes the biggest makers and users of the weapon - neither attended the Ireland negotiations, nor did they show any interest in signing the agreement.
The US argues that cluster bombs are a legitimate weapon, essential to repel the advancing columns of enemy troops. If such a claim carried an iota of legitimacy, then the weapon’s use should have ended with the end of conventional wars in the mid twentieth century. However, cluster bombs are still heavily utilized in wars fought in or around civilian areas.World powers ignore treaty to ban cluster bombs

MUMBAI, India – The gunman captured in last month's Mumbai attacks had originally intended to seize hostages and outline demands in a series of dramatic calls to the media, according to his confession obtained Saturday by The Associated Press.
Mohammed Ajmal Kasab said he and his partner, who massacred dozens of people in the city's main train station, had planned a rooftop standoff, but abandoned the plans because they couldn't find a suitable building, the statement to police says.
Kasab's seven-page confession, given to police over repeated interrogations, offers chilling new details of the three-day rampage through India's commercial center that left 164 people plus nine gunmen dead.
He said the assault, which started Nov. 26, was initially set for Sept. 27, though he doesn't explain why it was delayed. The gunmen had been told by their handlers to carry out the attacks during rush hours when the station is teeming with commuters.
After reaching Mumbai, Kasab and his partner, Ismail Khan, the group's ringleader, headed to the train station by taxi.
"Ismail and myself went to the common toilet, took out the weapons from our sacks, loaded them, came out of toilet and started firing indiscriminately toward the passengers," Kasab told police.
As a police officer opened fire, the two militants retaliated with grenades before entering another part of the station and randomlyMUMBAI, India – The gunman captured in last month's Mumbai attacks had... more

Sen. John McCain acknowledged he is trailing Sen. Barack Obama in the 2008 presidential race, but says he long ago got used to being an "underdog" and willl keep fighting because he insists the Democratic nominee has neither the experience nor the candor to win the White House.
"This is a tough campaign," McCain told ABC News' Charlie Gibson in an exclusive interview. "I'm the underdog. I've always been the underdog from the beginning."
And in a surprising tactic, McCain repeatedly invoked Democratic Sen. Hillary Clinton -- an unpopular figure among conservative Republicans -- while defending his campaign's most controversial strategies: spending $300 billion to buy up peoples' mortgages and linking Obama to 1960s anti-war radical William Ayers.
McCain was most heated when pressing his campaign's attempts to connect Obama to Ayers, a co-founder of the Weather Underground, a Vietnam-era group that executed domestic bombings and plotted attacks on the U.S. Capitol and the Pentagon.
"[Ayers] wasn't a guy in the neighborhood. [Obama] launched his political career in his living room, in Mr. Ayers' living room. And I don't care about two washed-up old terrorists that are unrepentant about trying to destroy America. But I do care, and Americans should care, about his relationship with him and whether he's being truthful and candid about it," McCain said.
Obama says the personal attacks levied against him by the McCain campaign, particularly references to Ayers, are an attempt to "score cheap political points."
"Why don't we just clear it up right now," Obama told "World News" anchor Gibson in an exclusive interview on Wednesday. "I'll repeat again what I've said many times. This is a guy who engaged in some despicable acts 40 years ago when I was eight years old. By the time I met him, 10 or 15 years ago, he was a college professor of education at the University of Illinois . . . And the notion that somehow he has been involved in my campaign, that he is an adviser of mine, that . . . I've 'palled around with a terrorist', all these statements are made simply to try to score cheap political points."
But McCain was unrepentant when asked on Thursday by Gibson if Ayers is a "critical issue or factor in this campaign."
"I think it's a factor about Senator Obama's candor and truthfulness with the American people," McCain replied, before adding, "I don't care about Mr. Ayers, who on Sept. 11, 2001, said he wished he'd have bombed more. I don't care about that. I care about [Obama] being truthful about his relationship with him. And Americans will care."
Obama said on Wednesday to ABC News that the McCain campaign is making personal attacks "the centerpiece of the discussion in the closing weeks of a campaign where we are facing the worst economic crisis since the Great Depression and we're in the middle of two wars."
"I think that makes very little sense, not just to me but to the American people," Obama said.
McCain demurred when asked whether Obama's character or lack of candor disqualifies him to be president.
"I'll leave that up to the American people. But I have every right to insist that he be candid and truthful with the American people. And he needs to be asked about it, and he needs to be forthcoming," McCain said.
Obama had noted that McCain didn't raise the issue "to my face" in their debate on Tuesday, but McCain told Gibson he did not raise the Ayers argument during the debate because "it didn't come up in the flow of conversation."
But McCain told Gibson he felt comfortable with the subject as a focus in the last days of the campaign.
"I think it's something that needs to be examined. Sen. Clinton said it should be examined during their primary and it never was," McCain said.

A 32-year-old mother drowned her four-year-old daughter in the bath because she was ashamed of the girl's disability, a court heard.
Joanne Hill was "ashamed and embarrassed" of her four-year-old daughter Naomi's condition and struggled to cope caring for the youngster, who suffered with cerebral palsy. Hill then murdered her daughter in a "determined and planned act" after her husband refused to allow the child to be adopted.
Mrs Hill allegedly planned the murder for the afternoon of November 26 last year knowing her husband Simon would not be home until 5.30pm. After picking up Naomi from the childminder she drove them to the family home in north Wales, poured herself a glass of wine then ran a bath.
The barrister, Mr Chambers, said: "When the bath was full she told Naomi she was having a bath, but Naomi didn't want one. The defendant carried her upstairs and undressed her. The defendant put her in the bath and drowned her by holding her head under the water for a long time until she was dead." After the killing, Mrs Hill dressed her daughter's body as if nothing was amiss and drove her around for eight hours, drinking several glasses of wine, before taking her to hospital claiming she was unconscious, the jury heard.
Mrs Hill, who denies murder but admits manslaughter, told police she had been suffering from suicidal thoughts before the killing and later suggested she was psychotic.
But Mr Chambers said: "She quite simply wanted Naomi dead."
The prosecution does not accept Hill's diminished responsibility defence. They claim she was not suffering from any mental problems and had not been "entirely honest" since she was arrested. Jurors heard how Mrs Hill had told doctors that she was hearing voices in her head but had later admitted making up the account.

Senator and presidential hopeful Barack Obama, who has come under criticism for saying that small town Americans deal with bitterness by clinging to their guns, religion, and nationalism, has found himself on the defensive facing what appears to be a slam-dunk shot for the Democratic nomination, provided he can break even with rival Hillary Clinton in the final primaries and shore up votes from the questionable yet all-powerful superdelegates. Senator Clinton has dubbed him as elitist and out of touch with American Values. Here's his response:
"Now, I have to admit that I expected some of this out of John McCain. John McCain said I was out of touch, he said I was being condescending and elitist, 'people aren't bitter.' And I'm thinking to myself, 'Here's a guy, it took him three tries before he actually came up with a plan to deal with the millions of people who are about to lose their homes because of foreclosure, who wants to perpetuate the Bush tax cuts.
"And he's saying I'm out of touch. Do you think I'm out of touch or do you think he's out of touch?! So I expected this out of John McCain. But I've gotta say, I'm a little disappointed when I start hearing the exact same talking points coming out of my Democratic colleague Hillary Clinton. She knows better. She knows better! Shame on her! Shame on her! She knows better!"
Meanwhile, Hillary's campaign has fired back about Obama's "shame" remarks. In a written statement released Sunday, Clinton spokesman Phil Singer referred to Obama’s remarks as an “outburst.”
“For months, Barack Obama and his campaign have relentlessly attacked Hillary Clinton’s character and integrity by using Republican talking points from the 1990s. The shame is his,” Singer said. “Sen. Clinton does know better — she knows better than to condescend and talk down to voters like Senator Obama did. Senator Obama’s outburst won’t change the fact that he has embraced his characterization of the millions of Americans who live in small towns.”

Fear of war with Iran has overpowered my thoughts. The drums have been beating, getting louder by the day. My heart races every time I contemplate the effects of war with Iran. There are people who spoke out before we went into Iraq; they were stating facts to back up their views. They were written off, overruled by spin. It’s 5 years later and we now have facts to support their claims; the Iraq War was wrong.
Listening now, I hear those same individuals talking about Iran and the same ‘talking heads’, spinning the same spin about Iran. I’m sorry but given the choice, I’ll choose the ones who were right before.
Lately, I have been in a panic, trying to post the voices of people who were right before, thinking if I could get their voices out there, people would know and George W. would be afraid to start World War III. He has even spoke of it. Why not panic? Do we trust his word? Do we trust his facts? Has his intelligence been wrong before? What will happen this time if he is wrong? Will Russia take it as a challenge? They have warned that an attack on Iran is an attack on them. Do we have a nuclear submarine heading to the area? Do we have aircraft carriers stationed in the area? Did you read the stories back in ’07 about Iran, Russia and China doing joint war games? I did. Did you read about the nuclear bombs moving by plane across America by accident? No kidding, nukes could be moved by accident?
In my PANIC to spread the word, I typed the wrong word in this heading. I typed Iran instead of Iraq. I have realized, it’s time to take a breath. One of my favorite quotes ‘When you get to the end of your rope, tie a knot and hang on’. I’m gonna take today and tie my knot, but I hope the rest of the concerned writers keep posting and spreading the word. It’s too important not to! I’ll be back. Tomorrow is another day.
Peace!

A Winning Argument: Loretta Alper and Jeremy Earp's "War Made Easy"
by Michael Joshua Rowin (March 9, 2008)
[An indieWIRE review from Reverse Shot.]
Though the early to mid-aughts documentary boom has recently died down, it's still difficult to believe there hasn't been a serious nonfiction indictment of the collusion between the government and the media in selling the invasion of Iraq to the American public. This accounts for a somewhat shameful omission in the ever-growing Iraq War doc catalogue--the sheer amount of lies, distortions, and fear-mongering titillations on display in a typical CNN or Fox News broadcast circa 2002 (and today) would offer enough evidence on the sorry state of our national media for a book-length study, let alone a feature film. Columnist, critic, and antiwar notable Norman Solomon has now, remarkably, provided both: his 2005 volume "War Made Easy: How Presidents & Pundits Keep Spinning Us to Death" has been adapted into an explosive, compact 73-minute documentary by filmmakers Loretta Alper and Jeremy Earp. If a few years ago Solomon was a lonely voice in the wilderness, with this film he has a major stage from which to educate a potentially greater audience.
Because educate is what this film has been unabashedly designed to do--there's a reason it was produced by the Institute for Public Accuracy (of which Solomon is founder and executive director) and Media Education Foundation. It would be a mistake, however, to dismiss "War Made Easy" as the cinematic equivalent of a lecture, no matter how tempting it might be to do so in an age where talking head-guided social studies lessons have emerged as the most popular form of documentary expression. Since Solomon is the only interviewee on screen (though it helps in such a case for a marquee name like Sean Penn to provide voice over services) "War Made Easy" should by all reasoning be even more dry and didactic, but it actually works as an effective and often startling montage of found footage (thank you, Fair Use) that plays like a highlight reel of the mainstream media's incessant but subtle ideological agenda.

Tucker Carlson explains how The American Press have become complicit with people of power.
Illustrating that point as vividly as anything I can recall, MSNBC’s Tucker Carlson had Peev on his show last night and angrily criticized her publication of Power’s remarks. Carlson upbraided Peev for her lack of deference to someone as important as Power, and Peev retorted by pointing out exactly what that attitude reflects about Carlson and the American press generally (via LEXIS; h/t Mike Stark):
CARLSON: What — she wanted it off the record. Typically, the arrangement is if someone you’re interviewing wants a quote off the record, you give it to them off the record. Why didn’t you do that?
PEEV: Are you really that acquiescent in the United States? In the United Kingdom, journalists believe that on or off the record is a principle that’s decided ahead of the interview. If a figure in public life.
CARLSON: Right.
PEEV: Someone who’s ostensibly going to be an advisor to the man who could be the most powerful politician in the world, if she makes a comment and decides it’s a bit too controversial and wants to withdraw it immediately after, unfortunately if the interview is on the record, it has to go ahead.
CARLSON: Right. Well, it’s a little.
PEEV: I didn’t set out in any way, shape.
CARLSON: Right. But I mean, since journalistic standards in Great Britain are so much dramatically lower than they are here, it’s a little much being lectured on journalistic ethics by a reporter from the “Scotsman,” but I wonder if you could just explain what you think the effect is on the relationship between the press and the powerful. People don’t talk to you when you go out of your way to hurt them as you did in this piece.
Don’t you think that hurts the rest of us in our effort to get to the truth from the principals in these campaigns?
PEEV: If this is the first time that candid remarks have been published about what one campaign team thinks of the other candidate, then I would argue that your journalists aren’t doing a very good job of getting to the truth. Now I did not go out of my way in any way, shape or form to hurt Miss Power. I believe she’s an intelligent and perfectly affable woman. In fact, she’s — she is incredibly intelligent so she — who knows she may have known what she was doing.
She regretted it. She probably acted with integrity. It’s not for me to decide one way or the other whether she did the right thing. But I did not go out and try to end her career.
Credit to Tucker Carlson for being so (unintentionally) candid about the lowly, subservient role of the American press with regard to “the relationship between the press and the powerful.” A journalist should never do anything that “hurts” the powerful, otherwise the powerful won’t give access to the press any longer. Presumably, the press should only do things that please the powerful so that the powerful keep talking to the press, so that the press in turn can keep pleasing the powerful, in an endless, symbiotic, mutually beneficial cycle. Rarely does someone who plays the role of a “journalist” on TV so candidly describe their real function. For anyone who wants to dismiss Carlson as some buffoon who is unrepresentative of journalists generally, I would refer them to the testimony at the Lewis Libby trial of the mighty, revered Tim Russert, Washington Bureau Chief for NBC News:
When I talk to senior government officials on the phone, it’s my own policy — our conversations are confidential. If I want to use anything from that conversation, then I will ask permission.

WASHINGTON - The White House says President Bush will veto legislation on Saturday that would have barred the CIA from using waterboarding — a technique that simulates drowning — and other harsh interrogation methods on terror suspects.
Bush has said the bill would harm the government's ability to prevent future attacks. Supporters of the legislation argue that it preserves the United States' right to collect critical intelligence while boosting the country's moral standing abroad.
"The bill would take away one of the most valuable tools on the war on terror, the CIA program to detain and question key terrorist leaders and operatives," deputy White House press secretary Tony Fratto said Friday.

Don’t use the children! Families first! Forget tapping our phones, they are going to tap our children. What have we become that we have to turn children into unknowing informants? Children trust their doctors. Parents teach the children to trust the doctors. Doctors occasionally have to hurt the children to protect them (they give them shots). Now they are going to use what they tell them against members of their families. Parents are going to have to teach their children to lie to their pediatricians if they smoke marijuana in the privacy of their own home. Daddies who have a gun in the home for protection will need to tell their children to lie to someone they should trust.
Pediatricians are a necessity. They should not be used as a tool for the government. Our children should not be used as a tool for the government. Are they that desperate that they have to use the weakest (our children) in their wars. What kind of psychological scars will they give to the children that accomplish their goals and they arrest their family members? Does the ends really justify the means? Our government is going to hurt families, via the child? Sad!
Who decides what questions to ask? Or is it, 'just go fishing'? This should not be accepted, our children should be loved and protected, not used.

MEMPHIS, Tenn. – A 7-year-old, $165 million defamation case against WND springing from a series of stories about then-presidential candidate Al Gore has been settled.
The terms of the out-of-court agreement with auto dealer Clark Jones are confidential. The settlement averts the need for a trial in Tennessee that was scheduled for next month.
I wish it hadn't taken 7 years, I can't remember which series of stories they are referring to. Does anyone remember? So many things have happened during those 7 years, There’s a question -- Why did WorldNetDaily.com report false information? Was it to benefit George W. Bush? If WorldNetDaily.com influenced the outcome of the 2000 election, they owe us all money! We need our Constitution back! We have the shame of being a country that questions what 'is' torture. Bill Clinton's question about 'is' was about sex. This administrations 'is' question is about torture. Our economy is in shambles. People are loosing their homes. Credit card companies are charging record interest rates, more than the bookies in the early 70's; they only charged 25%. Oil companies are making record profits every quarter. Every quarter is better than the last. Halliburton can not account for billions of dollars, with no accountability. $6.3 billion buyout by Carlyle complete -- chicagotribune.com -- December 22, 2007 http://www.chicagotribune.com/business/chi-sat_3brief_1222dec22,0,6850256.storyRecently seniors received notice stating: 'Important New Medicare Changes...' One paragraph stood out to me. **'Also, the DRG program payment system is still in effect and sets per ailment ceilings on Medicare payments to a hospital. Because of these ceilings, many hospitals are now transferring patients to lower cost nursing homes or extended care facilities **
Would the rich have gotten richer and the poor gotten poorer if news organizations like WorldNetDaily been held accountable at the time? Would other news organizations been more afraid of litigation and accountability than George W. and the neocons?
America needs accountability again. If people and corporations would be held accountable, they would fear the cost and shame for lying. The spin that has gone on for the past 7 years, is lies that distort fact, yet are given equal coverage. Mainstream media has reported spin and fact as equal; it's an 'Assault on Reason'.
Congress spent today investigating steroids of baseball players? If the libel settlement is because WND used lies against Clark Jones to hurt the campaign of Al Gore, WND admitted to tampering with an election. Knowingly printing lies during a campaign 'IS' TAMPERING WITH OUR PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION! That is what I want Congress to investigate, NOT STEROIDS!
