Nafissatou Diallo rompt le silence dans l'affaire DSK

La femme de chambre qui accuse Dominique Strauss-Kahn de tentative de viol rompt son silence lundi dans la presse américaine, déclarant à Newsweek que l'ancien directeur du FMI lui est apparu comme un "homme fou" et l'a attaquée alors qu'elle entrait dans sa suite de l'hôtel Sofitel de New York le 14 mai dernier.

Nafissatou Diallo donne au magazine et à la chaîne ABC News, à qui elle a également accordé un entretien, la permission de l'identifier par son nom. Son visage apparaît de profil à la une de la prochaine livraison de Newsweek.

C'est la première fois que cette immigrée guinéenne âgée de 32 ans s'exprime dans les médias, alors que Dominique Strauss-Kahn doit comparaître dans une semaine, le 1er août, pour une nouvelle audience.
Les avocats de l'ancien ministre socialiste dénoncent une tentative tardive de la part de la jeune femme et sa défense pour obtenir de l'argent de Dominique Strauss-Kahn.
"Je veux la justice. Je veux qu'il aille en prison", déclare Nafissatou Diallo dans son entretien avec la chaîne ABC News, qui sera diffusé lundi matin. "Je veux qu'il sache qu'il y a des endroits où on ne peut pas utiliser son argent, où on ne peut pas utiliser son pouvoir."
L'un de ses avocats, Douglas Wigdor, a déclaré qu'elle avait décidé de s'exprimer publiquement pour que le monde sache qu'elle n'est "ni une artiste du racket ni une prostituée".

David Cameron defends his good faith and get out claws of parliamentarians

David Cameron this is rather well out of his confrontation today Wednesday with parliamentarians. In the spotlight, British Prime Minister had to shorten his trip to Africa to respond to the attacks against him on the case of the illegal phone tapping by the journalists of the News International Group.

Labour officials had requested his resignation because of the hiring, in the spring of 2007 and on the advice of the current Minister of finance George Osborne to Andrew Coulson as his Director of communications. Resigned four months earlier the direction of the writing of News of the World at the time of the conviction of a journalist and a detective deprived the tabloid at the prison farm, the nie then any knowledge of illegal eavesdropping carried out by his subordinates.

Mea culpa

But emails exchanged with some of them would now prove the contrary and led police to arrest him ten days ago. Seeking to defuse the controversy, David Cameron, assured the Parliament that had he been aware, [he] have not submitted the job. And to make his mea culpa. I am sorry and I'm extremely sorry fury that this has caused.

David Cameron has also rejected the idea that he may have had inappropriate discussions with News International officials about the redemption of the BSkyB satellite television group. However, he admitted having met some officials on the subject, without specifying their name. It also confirmed be close to Rebekah Brooks, former Director of News International, and has implied that both were discussed. Two very vague points that still maintain the doubt on the relationship between the Prime Minister and the organizational structure of Rupert Murdoch.

Biographie of Alexander Calder

Alexander Calder was born in a family of artists: his Scottish grandfather, and his father, Alexander Stirling Calder, author of many public monuments in Philadelphia, are famous sculptors, and his mother, Nanette Lederer Calder, painter. This youth surrounded by artists, MoMA in New York retains a sculptor of Calder father, The Man Cub, representative Calder four year old son.

Child, Calder, who has in his parents of his own workshop, already use its ten fingers to achieve, from pieces of scrap metal recovered, jewelry for its sister small dolls, or animals in sheet of brass.

Artist engineer

Although themselves artists, Calder parents does not encourage to follow their trail. Also he began studies of mechanical engineering, facilitated by his love of mathematics.

After various jobs in engineering, Calder decided nonetheless to become artist and enrolled in 1923 at the Arts Student League of New York to study painting. Illustrator for the National Police Gazette, and then for the performances of the Barnum Circus Calder is passionate about the theme of the Circus: this fascination leads in 1926 on the creation of the Cirque Calder, staged from figures made of wire and in which the artist plays the role of master of ceremonies and puppeteer.

The Parisian years

Calder was meanwhile installed in Paris, in the artist district of Montparnasse. There, he began making articulated toys and gives his circus performances that delight the artists of the Parisian avant-garde, particularly Miró, Cocteau, Man Ray, Robert Desnos, Fernand Léger and Le Corbusier.

The meeting of Piet Mondrian in 1930 is a major influence on Calder. He abandons the figurative sculpture and adopts a sculptural abstract and colorful language.

To l' abstraction: mobile

Executed in wire and wood, its new works evoke the schema of the universe. Artist builds sculptures consist of independent mobile elements driven by an electric motor or a crank, Marcel Duchamp named mobile. Non-air Calder sculptures will be appointed by opposition static.

Returning to the United States in 1933, Calder met a great success. He continues to give Cirque Calder performances, works staged works of Erik Satie and Martha Graham.

From the 1950s, major commands assigned and Calder focuses on the monumental sculpture, especially in 1958 the spiral, mobile for the UNESCO headquarters in Paris. He knows the dedication in 1964 with a retrospective at the Guggenheim Museum in New York.

Alexander Calder died on November 11, 1976 in New York at the age of seventy-eight

Biographie Johann Mendel (Gregor Mendel)

Johann Mendel was born July 20 or 22 1822 [1] at Heinzendorf (Hynčice, Nový Jičín district), a small village of Moravia, in a family of peasants. Gifted studies, but depressive tendency that earned him multiple illnesses later in his career, the boy is particularly quickly noticed by the parish priest of the village decides to send study far from home. In 1840, he joined the Institute of philosophy of Olmutz to attend two preparatory years at the entrance to the University. In September 1843, Mendel is received at the noviciate of Brunn monastery where he took the first name of Gregor; He will be ordained a priest in 1847. This monastery is led by Cyrill Franz Napp, a prelate scientific and open, and contains, apart from a given library, a botanical garden. Upon arrival at the monastery, Mendel feels all that a specifically stimulating cultural environment can bring his aspirations. He spends all his free time to the study of natural sciences. At the same time it ensures scientific teaching in colleges and high schools in the surrounding area but is reluctant to pastoral tasks. In 1849 he accepted a teaching position in a nearby town but fails on two occasions in tests of the examination of fitness education.

The Monastery St. Thomas, BrnoMendel hand in 1851 to take the course as a free listener, the Institute of physics, Christian Doppler; He studied, in addition to the mandatory contents, Botany, plant physiology, entomology, paleontology. In two years, it takes all of the methodological groundwork to later experiences. During his stay in Vienna, Mendel is led to take an interest in the theories of Franz Unger, Professor of plant physiology. He advocates the experimental study to understand the birth of the new characters in plants in successive generations. He hopes to resolve the problem posed by hybridization in plants.

Returning to the monastery, Mendel installs an experimental Garden in the courtyard and in the greenhouse, in agreement with his Abbot, and is a design of experiments to explain the laws of the origin and formation of hybrids. He chooses this pea has the advantage of easily grown with many described varieties. In 1863 an epidemic devastates crops and Mendel then turned to other species. He exhibited and published the results of these studies in 1865 in an article entitled: research on plant hybrids. After ten years of careful work, Mendel thus laid the theoretical bases of genetics and modern inheritance.

His work does not generate enthusiasm among his contemporaries who have difficulty understanding the mathematical formalization of his experiences. Particularly little scientists of his time will cite his work and Mendel receives little responses to various correspondents to which it sends a taken-to-part. Of these, only Carl Wilhelm von Nägeli, Professor of botany at Munich, he drafted, uncertain of some of its conclusions.

In 1868, Mendel was elected superior of the convent on the death of the abbé Napp. Forced to spend lot of time to the duties of his Office, he abandoned his particularly extensive research on hybridization of plants. He then engages other areas more compatible with its obligations, especially the horticulture and beekeeping. He is also passionate about meteorology which will be the domain that it will be the longest studied, from 1856 until his death in 1884, making systematic long-term surveys and compiling all of the results of the weather stations in his country. It will also better known by his contemporaries for his contribution to this matter for its contribution to the emerging genetic.

In 1883, he began to suffer from kidney failure likely will win a year later

Game of Thrones screamed for season two

The drama, which is based on novels by George R.R. Martin, was picked up for a second season yesterday after just one episode had aired.

Speaking to Entertainment Weekly, Lombardo said: "It's a great show that only gets better with every episode, and when it ends you're left wanting more. On a creative level, it was screaming for another season."
Lombardo added that he is pleased with the show's performance, saying: "We absolutely had an expectation that this would be a slow [ratings] build. It's challenging for people who've decided it's not a genre for them. The word of mouth has been great and we don't even have OnDemand numbers yet. We thought it was a great starting place."

Lombardo explained that producers are already looking for locations for the second season but suggested that the number of episodes has not yet been confirmed.

"It's such a challenging show to produce," he said. "They don't have a writing staff - it's just the two of them [David Benioff and D.B. Weiss]. The idea is to do ten [episodes] again, and that's what they want to do, to maintain the quality of their work."

Lombardo also revealed that he expects the second season to premiere in 2012, saying: "We don't want people to wait more than a year."

Game of Thrones airs on Sundays at 9pm on HBO in the US and on Mondays at 9pm on Sky Atlantic in the UK.

NY police to investigate Tupac "2pac" robbery confession

New York police are investigating an online posting from a man who claims to have shot the late rapper Tupac Shakur during a robbery attempt in 1994, a police spokesman said on Thursday.
Convicted murderer Dexter Isaac claims to have been paid $2,500 by music manager James Rosemond to rob Shakur outside a Manhattan recording studio in November 1994, in which Shakur was shot five times.
Shakur survived the shooting but was later murdered in an unsolved 1996 shooting in Las Vegas.
Isaac is currently serving a life sentence in Brooklyn, New York, after having been convicted for charges including murder, fraud and robbery.
"Detectives plan to talk to him and hear what he has to say," police spokesman Paul Browne said Thursday.
Rosemond, a well-known manager of several high-profile artists, is currently a fugitive from federal authorities who allege he was involved in a large-scale cocaine trafficking enterprise.
Rosemond's lawyer, Jeffrey Lichtman, told Reuters Isaac was making up the story to help police build a case against Rosemond.
"This is not him being a good soldier or clearing his conscience. It's a desperate 17-year-old attempt to reduce his sentence," he said.
As proof, Isaac said he is still in possession of a chain necklace that he took from Shakur during the robbery.
He also claims in the posting to have information about the murders of Shakur in 1996 and another rapper, Christopher "Notorious B.I.G." Wallace in 1997, but did not elaborate.
The claim from Isaac was first posted on music website AllHipHop.com.
In the confession, Isaac said he is speaking out because Rosemond had accused him of being a government informant.
"Now I would like to clear up a few things, because the statute of limitations is over, and no one can be charged, and I'm just plain tired of listening to your lies."

China software bug makes infrastructure vulnerable

Software widely used in China to help run weapons systems, utilities and chemical plants has bugs that hackers could exploit to damage public infrastructure, according to the Department of Homeland Security.
The department issued an advisory on Thursday warning of vulnerabilities in software applications from Beijing-based Sunway ForceControl Technology Co that hackers could exploit to launch attacks on critical infrastructure.
Sunway's products, widely used in China, are also deployed to a lesser extent in other countries including the United States, DHS's Industrial Control Systems Cyber Emergency Response Team said in its advisory.
"These are vulnerabilities that hackers could leverage to cause destruction," said Dillon Beresford, a researcher with private security firm NSS Labs, who discovered the bugs.
The DHS advisory comes amid a wave of high-profile cyberattacks on institutions ranging from the International Monetary Fund to Citigroup Inc and Sony Corp. The attacks focused primarily on stealing data; only in a few instances has critical infrastructure been attacked.
Last year the Stuxnet computer worm surfaced, targeting industrial control systems manufactured by Siemens. Security experts widely believe that the worm was built as part of a state-backed attack on Iran's nuclear program.
Iran said the worm was used to attack computers at its Bushehr nuclear reactor. There has been widespread speculation that Stuxnet actually damaged the plant, something Iran denies.
FIXING BUGS
Beresford has worked with Sunway, Chinese authorities and the DHS to fix the bugs he found. Sunway has developed software patches to plug the holes, but it could take customers months to install those patches, Beresford said.
That gives hackers a window of time in which to exploit those vulnerabilities.
"Customers need to be notified and given proper time to patch," said Beresford, who also discovered security bugs in industrial control management systems from Siemens. The German company addressed those vulnerabilities in an advisory it released last week.
Representatives for Sunway could not immediately be reached for comment.
The Sunway software flaws highlight growing concerns about the safety of supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA) computer systems that are used to monitor and control processes in a wide variety of facilities, including nuclear power plants, chemical factories, water distribution networks and pharmaceutical plants.
SCADA systems -- designed before Internet use became widespread -- were not built to withstand Web-based attacks.
Security systems to deal with Web threats have been bolted on rather than incorporated into SCADA systems, leaving holes that hackers can penetrate.
Beresford said that there are other vulnerabilities in SCADA systems that have yet to be documented by security experts and plugged by the manufacturers.
"The point of my putting this information out and getting it into the public domain is so that we can pressure the vendors to actually patch the vulnerabilities instead of sitting on them because these systems are inherently flawed by design," he said.

Funny Keeper's blunder costs his side promotion

Goal keeper's blunder loses penalty kick and the promotion into the top league.
Dro secured their return to the top league versus Tramin (both South Tyrol / Italy) on 06/05/2011.
The decision came in the form of a weird blunder by the Tramin goal keeper. Dro's win was then secured by Tramin failing to score on the last penalty kick.

The national football authority has ruled that the match has to be repeated as the penalty goal for Dro was void. The referee made a 'technical mistake' awarding the goal as the penalty should have been aborted/ended as soon as the ball touched the ground.

Introduction to Health insurance

Health insurance is insurance against the risk of incurring medical expenses among individuals. By estimating the overall risk of health care expenses among a targeted group, an insurer can develop a routine finance structure, such as a monthly premium or payroll tax, to ensure that money is available to pay for the health care benefits specified in the insurance agreement. The benefit is administered by a central organization such as a government agency, private business, or not-for-profit entity.
A health insurance policy is a contract between an insurance provider (e.g. an insurance company or a government) and an individual or his sponsor (e.g. an employer or a community organization). The contract can be renewable (e.g. annually, monthly) or lifelong in the case of private insurance, or be mandatory for all citizens in the case of national plans. The type and amount of health care costs that will be covered by the health insurance provider are specified in writing, in a member contract or "Evidence of Coverage" booklet for private insurance, or in a national health policy for public insurance.
The individual insured person's obligations may take several forms:

Premium: The amount the policy-holder or his sponsor (e.g. an employer) pays to the health plan to purchase health coverage.
Deductible: The amount that the insured must pay out-of-pocket before the health insurer pays its share. For example, policy-holders might have to pay a $500 deductible per year, before any of their health care is covered by the health insurer. It may take several doctor's visits or prescription refills before the insured person reaches the deductible and the insurance company starts to pay for care.
Co-payment: The amount that the insured person must pay out of pocket before the health insurer pays for a particular visit or service. For example, an insured person might pay a $45 co-payment for a doctor's visit, or to obtain a prescription. A co-payment must be paid each time a particular service is obtained.
Coinsurance: Instead of, or in addition to, paying a fixed amount up front (a co-payment), the co-insurance is a percentage of the total cost that insured person may also pay. For example, the member might have to pay 20% of the cost of a surgery over and above a co-payment, while the insurance company pays the other 80%. If there is an upper limit on coinsurance, the policy-holder could end up owing very little, or a great deal, depending on the actual costs of the services they obtain.
Exclusions: Not all services are covered. The insured are generally expected to pay the full cost of non-covered services out of their own pockets.
Coverage limits: Some health insurance policies only pay for health care up to a certain dollar amount. The insured person may be expected to pay any charges in excess of the health plan's maximum payment for a specific service. In addition, some insurance company schemes have annual or lifetime coverage maximums. In these cases, the health plan will stop payment when they reach the benefit maximum, and the policy-holder must pay all remaining costs.
Out-of-pocket maximums: Similar to coverage limits, except that in this case, the insured person's payment obligation ends when they reach the out-of-pocket maximum, and health insurance pays all further covered costs. Out-of-pocket maximums can be limited to a specific benefit category (such as prescription drugs) or can apply to all coverage provided during a specific benefit year.
Capitation: An amount paid by an insurer to a health care provider, for which the provider agrees to treat all members of the insurer.
In-Network Provider: (U.S. term) A health care provider on a list of providers preselected by the insurer. The insurer will offer discounted coinsurance or co-payments, or additional benefits, to a plan member to see an in-network provider. Generally, providers in network are providers who have a contract with the insurer to accept rates further discounted from the "usual and customary" charges the insurer pays to out-of-network providers.
Prior Authorization: A certification or authorization that an insurer provides prior to medical service occurring. Obtaining an authorization means that the insurer is obligated to pay for the service, assuming it matches what was authorized. Many smaller, routine services do not require authorization.
Explanation of Benefits: A document that may be sent by an insurer to a patient explaining what was covered for a medical service, and how payment amount and patient responsibility amount were determined.

Prescription drug plans are a form of insurance offered through some health insurance plans. In the U.S., the patient usually pays a copayment and the prescription drug insurance part or all of the balance for drugs covered in the formulary of the plan. Such plans are routinely part of national health insurance programs. For example in Quebec, prescription drug insurance is universally required as part of the public health insurance plan, but may be purchased and administered either through private or group plans, or through the public plan.
Some, if not most, health care providers in the United States will agree to bill the insurance company if patients are willing to sign an agreement that they will be responsible for the amount that the insurance company doesn't pay. The insurance company pays out of network providers according to "reasonable and customary" charges, which may be less than the provider's usual fee. The provider may also have a separate contract with the insurer to accept what amounts to a discounted rate or capitation to the provider's standard charges. It generally costs the patient less to use an in-network provider

What is Prostate Cancer Treatment

What are some of the treatment options for prostate cancer?

The treatment options for prostate cancer depend in part on your age, your overall health and whether the tumor has spread. For tumors that are still inside the prostate, radiation therapy (using a type of X-rays to kill the cancer cells) and a surgery called radical prostatectomy are common treatment options. "Watchful waiting" is also a treatment option. In this approach, no treatment is given until the tumor gets bigger prostate cancer.

Watchful waiting may be the best choice for an older man who has a higher risk of dying from something other than his prostate cancer.

Usually, tumors that have grown beyond the edge of the prostate can't be cured with either radiation or surgery. They can be treated with hormones that slow the cancer's growth.

Anthony Weiner lewd , Democrat in slip on Twitter photo

A Democrat elected in New York acknowledged Monday he sent several photos of him in his underwear to women encountered on the Internet. Problems: the elected is married and said photos have been published.

A former Director of the IMF favorite to win the Elysée in 2012 charged with sexual assault on a woman of the household of a grand hotel in Manhattan. A Democrat elected married aimed to conquer the city of New York, sending him daring photos women encountered on the Internet. Or how two politicians apparently destiny all path saw their hopes reduced to nil for dark stories of manners. The parallel is eloquent. Concordance of the events it is as much.

The two cases passionate about both sides of the Atlantic. Dominique Strauss-Kahn accumulate each on our side. Anthony Weiner takes the leading role in the face. This democratic elected acknowledged Monday, the same day where DSK argued charging that he had well sent via Twitter, photos of him in undress women encountered on the Internet. To ask why sex makes crazy policies around the world.

Married to a close to Hillary Clinton

Legally, the facts alleged to Anthony Weiner have absolutely nothing illegal. Strictly speaking, photographs are of a certain bad taste and their diffusion on a social network is probably not the result of a very great vision. One of the clichés shows including Weiner, dressed in full erection (see photo) and a slip apparently. Only, Anthony Weiner is married for a year to a close collaborator of Hillary Clinton. The latter surely know the Advisor on how to manage media coverage of sexual taunts of her husband publicly.

"But it will have to be strong to face the media storm that today hits its torque. Monday, the same day where Weiner held his press conference, several tabloids Americans such as the New Daily and the New York Post made their case. With the same sense of good taste which Anthony Weiner taking his photos

If the facts are legally not reprehensible, they could mark the end of the political career of democratic elected officials. Because the Americans, often perceived as prudish our side of the ocean, like nothing less than the lie. However, in this story, Anthony Weiner has lied. He lied to his wife by sending messages and pictures to other women met on the Internet. He lied to everyone claiming if pirated fact be his account Twitter.

Yet the democratic elected will not draw hasty conclusions. "I not resign", he assured Monday. There is no separation. Is no resignation. Anthony Weiner would, once the tears dried, that everything is as before.

New "X-Men" set to power back mutant film franchise

The "X-Men" franchise is back in theatres worldwide this week after a two year break and set to adapt its superhero themes into box office muscle with a strong story, fresh crop of actors, zippy visuals and broad appeal.
The fifth film, "X-Men: First Class," will likely re-energize the series, guaranteeing more "X-Men" movies and making it the early contender to beat among a group of big summer comic book films such as "Green Lantern" and "Captain America", film experts say.
"This one will likely be among the top three performers of the summer because, just like a good old James Bond movie, it should appeal to a broad base of moviegoers -- even if they haven't seen the four previous films," said Deadline Hollywood columnist Pete Hammond.
"X-Men: First Class," is another spin-off prequel to the original movie adapted from the fictional Marvel comic series of the same name.
It focuses on the formative years of mutants Charles Xavier (played by James McAvoy) and Magneto, also known as Erik Lehnsherr, played by Michael Fassbender, in the days before they became mortal enemies.
The 20th Century Fox film opens in the German concentration camp Auschwitz in occupied Poland in 1944 with a young Lehnsherr, who is separated from his parents when he first encounters the villain Sebastian Shaw and discovers his powers for the first time.
Directed by Matthew Vaughn, another Briton, and with a reported production budget of $120 million (73 million pounds), early reviews for the tale of misunderstood freaks have been glowing. According to aggregator website Rotten Tomatoes, the movie has a rare 98 percent "fresh" rating.
EMBRACE THE GEEK

That bodes well after some unfavourable critical reaction to "X-Men: The Last Stand" in 2006 and "X-men Origins: Wolverine" (2009) -- although they still managed to gross more than $459 million and $373 million respectively at the worldwide box office.

"Much as 'Casino Royale' rebooted the James Bond franchise in a fresh and dynamic way, 'X-Men: First Class' injects new blood into a franchise that, for all its profitability, had become anaemic," said The Hollywood Reporter.

Critics describe the new "X-Men" as visually stylish and a welcome return to the roots of the series. The cast also includes Kevin Bacon as Shaw, Jennifer Lawrence as shape-shifting waitress Mystique, and Rose Byrne as CIA agent Moira MacTaggart.

"X Men has been successful because it keeps reinventing itself and incorporating the most likable and intriguing group of ensemble characters of any comic book franchise," Hammond said.
Fassbender, whose performance has earned buzz for his prospects as a future James Bond, told reporters he believed the success of the franchise lay with universal themes that highlight self-respect and tolerance.
"The whole concept of 'X-Men' is a very mature idea -- in terms of most superhero comics in general -- that there is this alter ego that makes up for the geek inside.
But that idea of alienation is a universal thing, whether it be for religious beliefs or ethnicity or sexual orientation," Fassbender said. "It touches on a nerve that people can relate to."
Fassbender said that unlike some other blockbuster movies, the audience was forced to ask questions.
"Nowadays, especially with big commercial films, it is much too easy for the audience and they get spoon-fed," he said.
