Assault Shows Why Egypt Revolt Goes On: Columnist

Egyptian-AmericanCairo: An Egyptian-American columnist who said she was sexually assaulted by Egyptian riot police this week said her experience showed why protesters are pressing their demands for democratic government, nine months after Hosni Mubarak was toppled. Riot police also broke Mona El Tahawy’s hand and arm during the assault Wednesday night near Cairo’s Tahrir Square, where protesters have been demonstrating for a week against the military council which replaced Mubarak in February.

“I was surrounded by four or five guys and systematically assaulted,” Tahawy said in a telephone interview. “I was surrounded by four or five guys. I was prey in the middle of them. They were in frenzy.”

Tahawy was near the front line of clashes between Egyptian youths and the security forces when she was attacked.

“What happened to me is nothing compared to the kinds of brutalities they have unleashed on Egyptians for decades, which is why our revolution continues and must succeed,” said Tahawy, 44, who lectures on Arab and Muslim affairs.

Police brutality was one of the main triggers for the uprising that toppled Mubarak earlier this year. “Here we are nine months later and they’re just as bad as ever,” Tahawy said.

The assault occurred just off Tahrir Square, where youths had been confronting security forces for several days, part of violence which killed 41 people across the country.

Tahawy said she was held for five to six hours at the Interior Ministry after the assault and that her request for medical attention was ignored. She was then transferred to military intelligence, where she was detained for five hours, two of them blindfolded, before being released.

“The military guys actually apologised for what happened to me,” she said. The Interior Ministry had said it was an isolated incident, she added.

The ruling military council, trying to defuse the protests, has promised that Parliamentary Elections will start on time next week.

Protesters who accuse the military of clinging to power want a rapid handover of power to a civilian government, and some say they do not trust the Army to oversee a fair election next week.

Suu Kyi Says, Myanmar Has Made Progress

Suu KyiDemocracy leader Aung San Suu Kyi said Monday that Myanmar’s government has taken positive steps toward reform in the year since she was released from house arrest but more needs to be done, including freeing hundreds more political prisoners. The Nobel peace laureate, speaking to more than 100 journalists on the anniversary of her release, cited her meetings with minister Aung Kyi and President Thein Sein as progress.

“Looking back at the past year, I think I can say that it has been eventful, energizing and to a certain extent encouraging,” said Suu Kyi, who was detained most of the past two decades by Myanmar’s former military government.

The international community’s hopes were not high after the country carefully orchestrated the Nov. 7, 2010, election. As expected, the polls brought to power a proxy party for the military, which ran the country since a 1962 coup.

But that perception has changed in recent months, as the new government eased censorship, legalized labor unions, suspended an unpopular, China-backed dam project and began talks with Suu Kyi’s pro-democracy movement.

She said she believed Thein Sein was committed to reforms. He was prime minister under the long-ruling military junta and has been considered a moderate.

“I personally believe that he is very genuine in his desire for the process of democratization,” Suu Kyi said.

There are still key issues to be addressed, however. Suu Kyi on Monday mentioned the plight of both political prisoners and ethnic minorities as well as the need for rule of law and an independent judiciary in the country.

“An issue of great importance to all of us who are working for democracy in Burma is that of political prisoners. Some had been released over the last year, but there are still many who remain in prison,” Suu Kyi said, using the name for the country that the pro-democracy movement prefers.

She said she had no news about wide speculation that the government would announce the release of more political prisoners Monday.

“We do not have any specific information on who has been released if anybody has been released at all,” she said.

A government-appointed human rights body on Sunday urged the president to release political prisoners or transfer them to prisons close to their families, signaling such action may be imminent.

Myanmar has made progress: Suu Kyi
Myanmar’s three state-owned newspapers published the open letter from National Human Rights Commission chairman Win Mra calling for an amnesty “as a reflection of magnanimity,” or to transfer political prisoners in remote prisons to facilities with easy access for their family members.

The letter’s publication is significant because the tightly controlled newspapers closely reflect government positions. An amnesty of 6,359 prisoners in October happened the same day state-run newspapers published a similar appeal.

Myanmar has made progress: Suu Kyi
A prisoner release in the next few days is also anticipated because a meeting of the Association of Southeast Asian Nations begins Thursday in Bali, Indonesia. Myanmar is seeking to chair ASEAN in 2014, and the release of political prisoners would be seen as a positive development favoring its bid, which is likely to be decided at this week’s summit.

No release had been announced by mid-afternoon Monday.

Myanmar is estimated to hold as many as 2,000 political prisoners

Dr Martha Lee

Dr Martha LeeDr. Martha Lee is the founder and clinical sexologist Eros Coaching. She is a certified sexologist with a doctorate in human sexuality. It offers training in sexuality and intimacy couplesI people and met a friend, Vanessa Chow, a few weeks ago. Like me, she is a sex educator, but has its headquarters in Hong Kong. I regret all the things I was not satisfied with my life. After listening in detail (and with much patience, and that was probably over and over again), I commented on how similar they were. She saw how hard he was trying to take care of the people around me, and my efforts to make them happy, and how exhausted everything I was doing.

She shared that she was, and probably is, in the same way. A first child, like myself, was given the responsibility from the beginning, both the care of younger siblings and helping in the family business. Raised to be an overachiever who just knew it was to try to strive for. After all, if you want something, why not work hard for it? And without doubt the most difficult to work for something, the more likely to succeed and be present at the time. It seems that common sense, but when we are too busy second-guessing our partners and trying to give them what they want, we can not focus on what we want and what feels good. In short, trying very hard sometimes can backfire. Relax. Let’s go. Enjoy.

Blizzcon Request Authentication Failed

Blizzcon Request Authentication FailedI recently had a strange problem with the functionality of custom login method based on forms authentication. The question is sometimes visible I connect my application successfully, sometimes – I can not. In all cases the same login is used. In reviewing the event log I found the following error Blizzcon Request Authentication Failed.

Event Viewer error:
Event code: 4005
Event message: Forms authentication not the application. Reason: The ticket supplied was invalid.
Event time: 30/08/2006 15:43:33
Event time (UTC): 30/08/2006 12:43:33

Sequence of Events: 894
Occurrence of the event: 388
Event detail code: 50,201

Below you can find a brief explanation and a solution of how to prevent this behavior.

In fact, the application uses “machineKey” definition to generate the authentication cookie. If “machineKey” properties are not initialized in the web.config file, the application uses different settings for different servers. This way when you have registered with the X server and then try to log into the server and can be that the use of X server cookie which is different from the server and uses. So you can not access.

Therefore machineKey properties should always be defined for moving applications from one server to another. Here is an example of “machineKey” definition:
