Le père se suicide, sa fille se tourne vers Facebook pour l’aide…

Je m’appelle Gamelin Fanny, je suis l'ainée de deux soeurs et notre père Joël Gamelin s’est suicidé le 23 décembre (la veille de noël).

C’était un chef d’entreprise respecté sur La Rochelle (17). (voir le Sud Ouest, taper Joël Gamelin dans Google)

Il s’est donné la mort dans le bureau de son entreprise.

Derrière lui, il laisse Les Chantiers GAMELIN, un chantier de construction naval.

Ce mois-ci, 120 personnes on perdu leur chef d’entreprise, mais n’auront pas de salaires.

Nous sommes en période de fêtes, et les gens ont dépensés un peu plus que d’habitude.

La conjoncture que l’on traverse, ne va pas être favorable à ces 120 familles.

Si 200 000 personnes font un don d’1€ symbolique, les salaires pourront être versés à 120 familles, pour vivre pour le mois prochain.

J’en appelle à la solidarité française pour aider les 120 employés des Chantiers GAMELIN à recevoir leur paye.

TOUS ENSEMBLE, NOUS POUVONS PERMETTRE A DES GENS DE SURVIVRE. Suite...

Protests across Britain target Israel over Gaza bombing...

Demonstrators took to the streets across Britain on Saturday to protest against Israeli airstrikes on Gaza.

The biggest rally was in London, where organisers were expecting thousands of protestors including singer Annie Lennox and former London mayor Ken Livingstone to march through the British capital.

Demonstrators on the event organised by the Stop the War Coalition were to leave old shoes for Prime Minister Gordon Brown at his Downing Street residence, in the spirit of an Iraqi journalist who threw his shoes at US President George W. Bush. More...

Taslima Nasreen bientôt logée par la Mairie de Paris...

Paris va enfin mettre un terme à l'errance de Taslima Nasreen, cet écrivaine au parcours jalonné d'honneurs qui se retrouve aujourd'hui à la rue. Sous le coup de plusieurs fatwas, cette féministe qui se bat contre l'oppression des minorités non islamiques dans les sociétés islamiques comme le Bangladesh, son pays d'origine, vient de faire appel au maire de Paris pour trouver un logement.

Dans une situation précaire, sans revenus, Taslima Nasreen a demandé à Bertrand Delanoë de bénéficier de sa «protection» au titre de la «citoyenne d'honneur de la Ville» qu'elle est récemment devenue. «Paris est la ville qui s'occupe le mieux des artistes, des écrivains et des femmes. La France est l'un des pays où je me suis sentie le plus soutenue», a-t-elle déclaré il y a quelque temps. Suite...

Singapore: African faces death for marijuana trafficking...

A Ghanaian who came to Singapore to try out for a football club has been found guilty of drug trafficking and will face the death penalty, a newspaper reported on Saturday.

Chijioke Stephen Obioha, 29, came to Singapore in November 2005 to try out for the football club Sporting Afrique, the paper said. He did not make the cut and instead made a living selling electronics.

Obioha was found guilty on Tuesday of trafficking 2.6 kg (5.7 lb) of cannabis or marijuana.

Singapore's drug laws are among the world's harshest drug. Anyone caught carrying more than 15 grams (0.5 ounce) of heroin, 30 grams of cocaine, 500 grams (17.6 ounce) of cannabis or 250 grams of methamphetamines faces a mandatory death sentence, carried out by hanging.

Penalties for consumption are also strict, including up to 10 years in jail, a S$20,000 ($13,740) fine, or both.

Sri Lanka: Tamil Tigers lose key town, but war far from over...

The Sri Lankan army's capture of the northern town of Kilinochchi marks a new phase in the fighting between the security forces and the Tamil Tiger rebels.

With its fall the rebels have now lost the biggest township they had under their control for more than a decade.

For the security forces, it will enable them to consolidate their domination of the key A9 highway, which links the Jaffna peninsula with the rest of the country.

The Tamil Tigers until recently had their administrative headquarters in the town. They proudly showcased offices of their political, police and judicial divisions to visiting foreign dignitaries and media. In fact, it acted like their de-facto capital. More...

Gaza: Kettring Town soccer team rooting for Palestinians!!!

The slogan 'Palestine Aid' will be emblazoned on Kettering Town's shirts for their FA Cup tie with Eastwood Town.

Shirts worn by players in an FA Cup tie tomorrow will be the unlikely advertising hoarding for the plight of Palestinians. Kettering Town will have the slogan Palestine Aid emblazoned on their kit to show their support for Interpal, a charitable organisation which distributes aid in the Palestinian territories.

"We are trying to raise awareness and charitable funds for the refugees in Palestine," Imraan Ladak, the Kettering chairman, said of the association with Interpal that began before the escalation last month of the conflict in Gaza. More...

Gaza: British telecom firm severs ties with Israeli counterparts...

British telecommunications firm FreedomCall has terminated its cooperation with Israel's MobileMax due to the IDF operation in Gaza.

"We received an email from the British company informing us that it is severing all ties with us and any other Israeli company following Israel's strike in Gaza," said CEO Raanan Cohen.

"We weren't expecting this from them and there was no prior warning. I don't intend to appeal to them or answer the letter."

The email from FreedomCall said, "As a result of the Israeli government action in the last few days we will no longer be in a position to consider doing business with yourself or any other Israeli company."

MobileMax, established in 2004, produces a program providing cellular phones with inexpensive international service.

President of Guyana not amused by fake Facebook profile!!!

There are hundreds of George Bushes, scores of Fidel Castros, and dozens of Hugo Chávezes, all with prank profiles on the social networking website Facebook, but when someone tried to pass him or herself off as the president of Guyana the real president didn't see the funny side.

Some world leaders, including Nicolas Sarkozy, have genuine Facebook profiles boasting thousands of supporters, but Bharrat Jagdeo, the leader of Guyana since 1999, is not one of them.

A fake profile of the president attracted almost 200 supporters before Jagdeo lodged a complaint and called in the police. He issued a terse statement pointing out that he is not, and never has been, a member of Facebook, or any other social networking site. More...

Microsoft crows about China's harsh sentences to software pirates...

Microsoft patted itself on the back on New Year’s Eve by announcing that the alleged ringleaders of a Chinese piracy gang, who sold at least $2bn worth of counterfeit software, have been sentenced to harsh prison terms.

The company said that 11 defendants were handed sentences that ranged from one and a half to six and a half years.

Redmond claimed the Futian People’s Court in Shenzhen, China had dished out “the longest sentences, for this type of crime” in the country’s history. However, China has remained characteristically quiet about the piracy syndicate’s downfall. More...

From Dachau to Gaza, Nazis and Israelis...

During the summer of 1982 I had the opportunity to visit the Nazi concentration camp just outside Dachau, Germany and then the little town itself. Given the proximity of the town to the camp, my immediate reaction was: “This town is so close to the camp that the citizens of Dachau must have known what was going on out there. Why did they not do anything about it?” I had the exact same reaction during the last two weeks of May 1986 as I traveled up and down the West Bank and Gaza Strip in order to investigate Israel’s atrocities and war crimes against the Palestinians.

Paris : ils « réquisitionnent » des chariots chez Monoprix!!!

Ils ont ensuite bloqué les caisses du supermarché et exigé que le directeur les laisse sortir sans appeler la police.

«C'est une autoréquisition qui est juste en ces temps de crise et qui permet aux précaires de fêter aussi le Nouvel An dignement », justifie le collectif qui a pu sortir du magasin sans être interpellé. « C'est un pillage innaceptable et regrettable », rétorque le groupe Monoprix, qui a prévu de réunir une cellule de crise vendredi matin pour décider des suites judiciaires à donner à cette affaire.

Firefox: une très bonne année 2008...

Un nouveau record pour le fureteur, du moins sur les statistiques fournies par Net Applications.

L'année 2008 a donc été particulièrement bénéfique à Firefox avec notamment la sortie d'une version 3.0 qui semble avoir convaincu de nombreux internautes. Tout au long de l'année écoulée (exception faite du mois d'avril), la part de marché de Firefox n'a cessé d'augmenter pour s'approcher des 20 % en octobre, les dépasser en novembre et dépasser les 21 % en décembre. Une trajectoire presqu'à l'opposé de celle suivie par Internet Explorer dont la part de marché s'est effritée en 2008, passant de plus de 75 % à 68 %. Suite...

"(The) fall of Kilinochchi soon will be a reality," said defence ministry spokesman and government minister Keheliya Rambukwella.

Sources from President Mahinda Rajapaksa's office told Reuters that troops had entered Kilinochchi from two locations and that fighting with rebels was going on. Military sources said an announcement was expected soon from Rajapaksa. More...

Why you should delete your MySpace account...

Today I am deleting all the content from my Myspace account and leaving only this notice. I’ve been inspired by the Franklin Street Statement and Identi.ca and I realize that a free/libre/open source internet is still possible, but it will require us to stop supporting corporate websites such as myspace. Here are some good reasons to delete your Myspace page, and support alternatives not run by corporations.

This is just the beginning, I’m planning on getting off of Facebook and other web services as well, and I hope you do too. We can have an internet that is Free/Libre/Open Source, but only if we stop supporting the corporate, locked down options we’ve been using all of these years. As these services become more a part of our lives and get into our phones and our everyday communications, it is critical that we fight for our freedom. Full story...

Gaza faces 'alarming' humanitarian situation. No kidding!!!

Gaza's 1.5 million residents are facing an "alarming" humanitarian situation under constant Israeli bombardment, with the main power plant shut down, overcrowded hospitals struggling to cope and very limited food supplies, U.N. officials said.

The power plant shut down on Tuesday because Israel has blocked fuel delivery through the main pipeline since Dec. 26, U.N. humanitarian chief John Holmes said Wednesday. This has forced hospitals to use generators, which have limited fuel supplies, and left many of the 650,000 people in central and northern Gaza with power cuts of 16 hours a day or more, he said.

"The situation remains alarming," Holmes said. "Hospitals are obviously still struggling very much to cope with the number of casualties. We have continued to get some medical supplies in and to help them cope, but this remains difficult and fragile." More...

Norway gets tough on sex buyers...

As Norway rings in the new year it will introduce a new law making the purchase - but not the sale - of sex a criminal act, threatening even to put Norwegians who buy sex abroad behind bars.

'We think buying sex is unacceptable because it favours human trafficking and forced prostitution,' Deputy Justice Minister Astri Aas-Hansen told AFP.

Street prostitution has become ever more visible in Norwegian cities in recent years, with prostitute support organisations estimating the country of just 4.6 million people counts as many as 3,000 sex workers.

The new law, which is modelled on similar legislation in Sweden, aims to clean up the streets and protect the prostitutes by outlawing the buying of sex, but not the sale. More...

Des ânes sont importants pour des nombreux égyptiens car ils peuvent porter des objets lourds de 20-30 percent de leurs poids corporelle, et ils sont aussi très utiles dans l’agriculture. On les voit partout en Égypte, aussi bien dans les villes qu’à la compagne.

Rabbi: Kick Madoff out of the Jewish people...

Rabbi Joshua Hammerman, religious leader of Temple Beth El in Stamford, Conn., wants Bernard Madoff excommunicated. Here's the rabbi's letter to Malcolm Hoenlein (not sure why this is a job for the Conference of Presidents, but we can discuss that another time) making the case for such a drastic step:

(-)

David Harris of the American Jewish Committee wrote in a letter to the New York Times of his concern that the Times’ coverage of Madoff had placed a “striking emphasis on his being Jewish.” But the Times is hardly alone in drawing that connection: Google “Madoff” and “Jewish” and 295,000 Web links already appear. The ADL called this a spike in online anti-Semitism. So we have a situation where Jews are being blamed for a crime that has disproportionately harmed Jews. I can understand why Jewish organizations are jittery about anti-Semites having a field day on this matter, but the most effective way to address it is through a clear repudiation not only of Madoff himself, but of the anti-Judaic nature of his acts.

The shooting took place at the Rosengaard mall in Odense, 170 kilometers (105 miles) west of Copenhagen. It occurred around 3:30 p.m. (14:30 GMT), when the mall was filled with people doing last-minute shopping before the New Year's break. More...
