05/23/2015 -vatican insider-Same-sex marriage: “The outcome of the referendum is the result of a cultural revolution”-Interview with the Archbishop of Dublin, Diarmuid Martin, on the victory of the “yes” campaigners in the Irish same-sex marriage referendum-GIACOMO GALEAZZI - ANDREA TORNIELLI
DUBLIN-“What we witnessed was not just the result of a “yes” or “no” campaign, it is the sign of a phenomenon which goes much deeper, a cultural revolution.” The Archbishop of Dublin, Diarmuid Martin, a prelate with a background in Vatican diplomacy who is well versed with the workings of international diplomacy, fought a tough battle against those who wanted to cover up child abuse in the Church when he was appointed head of the Irish capital’s diocese. Mgr. Martin offers some spur of the moment comments on the outcome of the referendum and the overwhelming victory of the “yes” campaigners in the vote on same-sex marriage. He doesn’t play the victim but admits there is a substantial divide between Irish society and the Catholic Church.Did you expect a flood of “yes” votes on same-sex marriage?-“I knew the “yes” campaigners had won when I saw the high turnout for “yes” votes. There were people queuing outside polling stations even before the doors opened. Many young people working outside Ireland came back especially to vote. The “yes” campaign was backed by all political parties, very few politicians personally expressed themselves against. The Prime Minister and all leaders joined the “yes” campaign in the streets and in gay bars.”Conservative Catholics have accused you of not doing enough for the “no” cause. What do you have to say to this?-“Even proponents of the referendum were shocked at the scale of the “yes” vote. The health minister said it was not a referendum but a cultural revolution. The Church needs to ask itself when this cultural revolution began and why some of its members refused to see this change. There also needs to be a review of youth pastoral care: the referendum was won with young people’s votes and 90% of young people who voted “yes” to the motion, attended Catholic schools”. What will you do now?-“This majority cannot be put down to a conspiracy. The vote reflects the current situation in Irish culture: What we witnessed was not just the result of a “yes” or “no” campaign, it is the sign of a phenomenon which goes much deeper. When I went on my visit ad limina to Pope Benedict XVI, the first thing he asked me was this: where are the intersecting points between the Catholic Church and the centres where the Irish culture of today is formed? Ratzinger’s question was correct and an answer needs to be found, because we are facing a cultural revolution.”What changes now?-“It is a significant change with unforeseeable concrete consequences. The Catholic Prime Minister has given his assurance that churches will not be affected, the courts will be responsible for implementing the law. Religious marriage is also a civil marriage and same-sex couples who are turned away by their parish priest, could turn to judges, accusing us of discrimination if lawmakers do not set certain limits. In Catholic schools, civic education teachers will be obliged to say that marriage is also the union between people of the same sex. All of this will create problems.”Could the Church have done more?-“No. There wasn’t even a Parliamentary debate on this. Multinational companies like Twitter and Google have their headquarters in Ireland and they supported the “yes” campaign. People were afraid that a “no” victory would have isolated and harmed the country economically. The legislative framework is now in motion, starting with artificial insemination. Singles can now adopt children and this is what same-sex couples did: one of the partners in the couple would adopt.What has brought about this historic turning point?-“An individualistic idea of the family prevails. The concept of marriage as a fundamental element of social cohesion has been lost. A reasoning based on respect for the rights of the individual is more successful than one based on social ethics.”
Focus-Ireland votes Yes on same-sex marriage By Honor Mahony-euobserver
BRUSSELS, 23. May, 15:20-Ireland has voted Yes to same-sex marriage, becoming the first country to enshrine marriage equality in its constitution by popular mandate.The Yes vote won with 62 percent while 38 percent voted against on a 60.5 percent turnout.“I’m calling it,” equality minister Aodhan O’Riordain tweeted on Saturday (23 May) in Dublin. “Key boxes opened. It’s a Yes. And a landslide across Dublin.”
Prime minister Enda Kenny said the outcome of Friday's referendum sends a “message of pioneering leadership” from the Irish people.Health minister Leo Varadkar, who recently came out, said the result represents a “social revolution in Ireland” and makes the country "a beacon of equality and liberty to the rest of the world”.Homosexuality was, until 1993, illegal in Ireland, where the Catholic church exercised a strong grip on society.But its grip weakened in recent decades amid a series of clerical scandals.O'Riordain, the equality minister, highliged the extent to which social attitudes have changed even outside cosmopolitan Dublin."I’ve seen bellwether boxes open, middle-of-the road areas who wouldn’t necessarily be liberal, and they are resoundingly voting Yes”, he told Reuters.Social media has been busy, with photos and tweets on emigrants who came back home to vote, and with the hashtags #hometovote and #MarRef trending on Twitter.The Iona Institute, which promotes socially conservative values and which campaigned No, congratulated the Yes side.But it urged the government to respect concerns about "freedom of religion and freedom of conscience".Following the referendum, parliament will introduce a bill to amend the Irish constitution. The Irish Times says the law will pass before the summer break.The new wording in the Irish charter is to say: "Marriage may be contracted in accordance with law by two persons without distinction as to their sex”.Just 17 countries, out of 193 in the UN, allow same-sex couples to marry, including EU member states Belgium, Denmark, France, Spain, and the Netherlands.
Cheers and tears as Ireland approves gay marriage-AFP By Robin Millard-may 24,15-yahoonews
Dublin (AFP) - Cheers rolled around Dublin Castle on Saturday as jubilant "Yes" supporters jumped for joy and waved rainbow flags to celebrate Ireland's vote to allow gay marriage.Bouncing with excitement, around 2,000 people who packed the castle grounds cheered the landslide referendum result as hundreds more crowded into the streets and Dublin's gay bars in one giant party.After a spontaneous, emotion-fuelled rendition of the national anthem, a mass of camera phones went up and people put their children on their shoulders as the returning officer appeared on the screen to announce the landmark moment in Ireland's social history.She was half-way through the figure for the "Yes" vote when deafening cheers broke out.
Heart-shaped balloons floated up into the air as people clapped with their hands above their heads and roared with delight.Supporters hugged and kissed one another afterwards, standing with their arms around each other, while some were visibly moved."It's amazing, the atmosphere is electric," said Paul Bonass, a 27-year-old Dubliner, holding up giant silver YES balloons."I don't think there's a single person here who wasn't completely on the edge of their seats. Even though we knew what it was going to be, you want that confirmation, that crescendo."Though he had no immediate plans to tie the knot with his boyfriend of six years, he said it was "fantastic to finally have the option the same as everyone else."Supporters gave the V for Victory, while one sign in the crowd read: "Thank you, you're all invited to the wedding".One woman, Amanda, said she was "absolutely overjoyed, overwhelmed, amazed, so proud to be Irish."I've been crying, I've been shaking, I've been just so excited it's absolutely, absolutely amazing."Another, Noleen, added: "My heart is beating fast, it's nuts, it's just such a happy, happy day."
- Couple plan wedding -
Peter Lynch, a retired teacher from Dublin, had a home-made sign around his neck in Irish and English reading "Tháinig ár lá (Our day came). Thank you Ireland"."You're entitled to go mad once in your life, when you finally become legal!", he told AFP."I'm 60. The first 40 years of my life I was a criminal," he said -- a reference to Ireland's decriminalisation of homosexuality in 1993."The next 20 years I was a second-class citizen," he said."It's been an extraordinary day."One lesbian couple had particular cause to celebrate as the law should pass as planned before their December 17 wedding date.Niamh Herrity, 32, and Aoife Doyle, 34, who have been together for four years, were posing for photos in their "Yes" T-shirts in front of the wedding dresses in the shop window of Memories Bridal Boutique, in Dublin's Parliament Street."We got our dresses last week, and this week we're allowed to get married. It's been an amazing, emotional couple of weeks," said Doyle.They joked that as well as Adam and Eve, Aoife and Niamh -- pronounced "efah" and "neev" -- will now be permitted to tie the knot."We got engaged two years ago. We're delighted that Ireland has pulled together for us. They did us proud," said Herrity.
- 'A new Ireland' -
Dublin's few gay bars were set to party into the night, and the streets around them were crammed long before sunset.Rory O'Neill, better known by his stage name Panti Bliss, is Ireland's foremost drag queen and runs the Pantibar.Wearing a figure-hugging dress and high heels, she regally marched a small army from the bar to the castle, where she was greeted by tumultuous applause."It's an incredible affirmation of a new Ireland, in a way. I don't think Ireland changed today but what Ireland did today was it confirmed a change that has already happened," she told reporters."Outsiders still are hung up on this idea that Ireland is some sort of very conservative country ruled by the Catholic Church and that has become more and more annoying for Irish people over the years," she explained."We live in a really open, welcoming society that treats everybody equally and there's not many countries in the world that can actually say that."
05/22/2015-IOR: Pope rejects the setup of an investment fund-IOR-vatican insider-Francis has said “no” to an initiative put forward by the President of the Institute for the Works of Religion (IOR) and approved by the Institute’s board, for the creation of a SICAV investment fund in Luxembourg for the management of deposits-ANDREA TORNIELLI
vatican city-The decision had been given the green light by the IOR’s lay Board of Superintendence. But it was halted first by the body’s supervisory Commission of Cardinals and then by the Pope himself. The Institute for the Works of Religion (IOR) will not have its own SICAV - (Société d’Investissement à Capital Variable) a type of investment fund that has a variable share capital. The IOR’s president, Jean-Baptiste de Franssu had wanted to set up this fund in Luxembourg. However, Francis has, since the very start of his pontificate, opposed the IOR’s tendency to behave like an investment bankin some cases. The reform of the Vatican’s finances also means making choices of this kind, in order to underline the unique nature of the “Vatican bank” and ensure that it remains true to the original purpose for which it was created.The point of the setting up of a SICAV investment fund was to help IOR managers manage a portion of the Institute’s deposits. Luxembourg was chosen as the area where operations would take place as it is in the Eurozone but also offers tax concessions. Vatican Insider has learnt that the decision was taken and formalised by the IOR’s Board of Superintendence headed by de Franssu. But when the project was presented to the Commission of Cardinals headed by Spanish cardinal Santos Abril y Castelló, it was discussed and was eventually handed over to the Pope who has been keeping a close eye on key decisions regarding the activities of the Institute.The fact that the SICAV idea was turned down, shows that the Holy See is keen to steer clear of certain financial instruments. Setting up an investment fund in Luxembourg may have made the controls and checks process more complex.Readers will recall that, in the question an answer session with journalists on board the return flight from Brazil in July 2013, the Pope himself left open the possibility that the work being done by the Commission for Reference on the IOR - which had been established a month prior to this – could lead to a decision to shut down the Institute. But this did not happen. “The IOR cannot be suppressed: many of the local Churches around the world are poor and in need of funds to build schools, hospitals, assistance centres, seminaries. The real issue at hand is transparency and cleaning up.” This was the explanation which Guzman Carriquiry, Secretary in charge of the Vice-Presidency of the Pontifical Commission for Latin America, gave as to why the IOR had not been shut down. Carriquiry’s statements have been published in the book “La banca del Papa” (The Pope’s bank), By Vatican correspondent Francesco Peloso.So it looks as though the IOR will continue to exist. But it will not act like an investment bank or make use of certain (legitimate) financial instruments.

Cleveland protests erupt after officer found not guilty in fatal shooting of two unarmed suspects-Reuters By Aaron Josefczyk and Kim Palmer-MAY 24,15-YAHOONEWS
CLEVELAND (Reuters) - A Cleveland police officer was found not guilty on Saturday in the shooting deaths of an unarmed black man and a woman after a high-speed car chase in 2012, one in a series of cases that have raised questions over police conduct and race relations in the United States.Judge John O'Donnell said Officer Michael Brelo, 31, acted reasonably in shooting the two suspects while standing on the hood of their surrounded car and firing multiple rounds through the windshield. Brelo, who was among a group of officers who fired on the car, was found not guilty of voluntary manslaughter and aggravated assault.
Protesters took to Cleveland streets on Saturday night as police patrolled in riot gear. Cleveland police spokeswoman Jennifer Ciaccia said that more than 20 people had been arrested.Brelo's trial, which began on April 6, took place at a time when U.S. law enforcement is under scrutiny for the use of lethal force against minority groups. It followed a series of high-profile deaths of unarmed black men in confrontations with police, which have prompted sometimes violent demonstrations.The two people who were killed, Malissa Williams and Timothy Russell, were black and Brelo, a former Marine, is white."Brelo was acting in conditions difficult for even experienced officers to imagine," O'Donnell said during the roughly hour-long reading of the verdict."He was in a strange place at night surrounded by gunfire, sirens and flashing bulbs. Brelo did not fire too quickly or at a person who was clearly unarmed or unable to run him over," he added.
Soon after the verdict, a small crowd of demonstrators took to the streets chanting "No justice, no peace," with protests becoming larger and more unruly. Police said on Twitter there was an incident with a large crowd with people spraying others with pepper spray.Police arrested at least three people at a restaurant after someone threw an object through a window and injured a customer.Reaction to the verdict was swift on social media, with many saying they were bewildered.U.S. Representative Marcia Fudge, a Democrat from Ohio, called the decision a "stunning setback on the road to justice.""The verdict is another chilling reminder of a broken relationship between the Cleveland Police Department and the community it serves," she said in a statement."Today we have been told – yet again – our lives have no value," added Fudge, who is African-American.The U.S. Justice Department said its civil rights division, the U.S. attorney's office and the FBI were reviewing testimony and evidence from the state trial and would determine if federal action would be taken."While the law and the court ... found him not guilty, we feel that he was culpable and he was far from innocent, as was the city of Cleveland in their role in this situation," Paul Cristallo, an attorney for Russell's family, told a news conference.Brelo's attorney, Patrick D'Angelo, described prosecutors as "ruthless" for pursuing the charges against his client. "It was classically a case of David vs Goliath," he said.The trial came months after the Justice Department found the Cleveland Police Department systematically engages in excessive use of force against civilians. It launched the investigation after a series of incidents, including the Brelo case.The department, in a December report, found that supervisors tolerated and in some cases, endorsed use of unnecessary or unreasonable force.Just days before the report was released, a Cleveland police officer shot and killed Tamir Rice, a 12-year-old boy who was carrying what turned out to be a replica gun that typically fires plastic pellets. The shooting is under investigation.
CAR CHASE
Ahead of Saturday's verdict, Cleveland officials braced for demonstrations, concerned about flashes of violence that erupted in Baltimore and Ferguson, Missouri, after fatal shootings of unarmed black men.
Six officers involved in the Baltimore incident in April have been indicted, while a Missouri grand jury decided against bringing charges against the officer who fatally shot Michael Brown in Ferguson last August.Mayor Frank Jackson said he hoped Cleveland would stay peaceful. "Actions that cross the line, either by police officers or citizens, can not and will not be tolerated," he said.Five other police supervisors were indicted on misdemeanor dereliction of duty charges in the deaths of Williams and Russell and are scheduled to go on trial in July. Dozens of officers have been disciplined and Cleveland paid the families of Williams and Russell $1.5 million each to settle a wrongful death lawsuit.Brelo, who waived his right to a jury trial, will remain on unpaid suspension until a police review is completed, Cleveland Police Chief Calvin Williams said.The chase, which started in downtown Cleveland after reports of gunfire coming from the car, went through multiple cities at speeds topping 90 mph (145 kph) and ended with 13 Cleveland police officers firing 137 rounds.Russell was struck 24 times and Malissa Williams 23 times. No weapon was found in the car or along the route. A forensic mechanic testified that the car was prone to backfiring.The judge found Brelo, who climbed on the car's hood once it had been cornered by patrol cars, had acted reasonably in the belief that the suspects were shooting at him and other officers.(Additional reporting by Alex Dobuzinskis in Los Angeles, Writing by Paul Thomasch; Editing by Robin Pomeroy, Janet Lawrence and Frances Kerry)
Police believe suspect in Washington quadruple murder may have had accomplices-Reuters By Victoria Cavaliere-MAY 24,15-YAHOONEWS
(Reuters) - Police in Washington believe that a man charged in the deaths of a wealthy businessman, his wife, son and housekeeper may have had help committing the crime, but said on Saturday no other suspects have been taken into custody.Daron Dylon Wint, 34, of Lanham, Maryland, was arraigned on Friday on a first degree murder charge.He is accused of holding captive construction business owner Savvas Savopoulos and the others until he got $40,000 in cash, then killing them and setting fire to their house in the upscale Woodley Park neighborhood of the capital.The killings "required the presence and assistance of more than one person," a Washington D.C. Metropolitan Police detective wrote in an affidavit filed in court on Friday.No other arrests have been made and there were no persons of interest in custody on Saturday, said police spokesman Hugh Carew. He said the investigation was still active and police were "not ruling out other suspects."Authorities say Wint held hostage Savopoulos, his wife, Amy, 47; son Phillip, 10; and housekeeper Veralicia Figueroa, 57, for at least 18 hours as he waited for the $40,000 to be delivered by an assistant of Savopoulos. The bodies of the four were found on May 14 after firefighters went to put at a fire at the home.Wint, who was ordered held without bond, was arrested late on Thursday in the U.S. capital following a manhunt. When he was arrested, Wint was a passenger in a car that was traveling alongside a truck. Police also arrested three men and two women in the vehicles but they were later released, police said.Police found more than $10,000 in money orders in Wint's car and a stack of $100 bills and more money orders in the truck, court documents said.Police have said Wint had worked for Savopoulos' company, American Iron Works.Police identified Wint from DNA found on the crust of a pizza that was delivered to the house late on May 13, the affidavit said.During the arraignment, defense attorney Natalie Lawson said the government's case was "based on speculation and guesswork."Prosecutor Emily Miller said: "Simply put, the defendant's DNA was on pizza left in a room with three dead adults."

In chaos of deadly Texas gang fight, self-defense claims may abound-Reuters By Jon Herskovitz-May 23, 2015 11:00 AM-YAHOONEWS
AUSTIN, Texas (Reuters) - Texas laws that offer a high degree of protection to those who act in self-defense may make it difficult to prosecute the 170 people jailed for a Sunday motorcycle gang fight that left nine dead, with hundreds of weapons seized by police.Texas allows a person to use deadly force with legal arms in self-defense if they believe such force is immediately necessary to protect against someone using deadly force against them. The use of force, deadly or not, is not justified if a person provoked the encounter.A person can also claim self-defense to protect themselves if someone is prepared to use force against them for a variety of crimes including aggravated kidnapping, sexual assault or robbery.It is an argument those in jail may use, claiming they were protecting themselves from violent people who were attacking each other with guns, knives, clubs, brass knuckles and chains."If they are there in a public place, legally armed, they can argue they were using self-defense," said Susan Klein, a professor of law at the University of Texas with expertise in criminal law.Klein said facts surrounding the incident are important and can be established by eyewitness testimony and forensic evidence.Texas law also supports those who stand their ground."They can shoot first and retreat later," she said.Lawyers for those arrested have said many were swept up indiscriminately by police and had nothing to do violence that spread from a Waco restaurant patio to two parking lots that became blood-soaked crime scenes strewn with shell casings.Bond has been set at $1 million each for those being held on organized crime charges relating to capital murder, a figure set high to keep them behind bars as police try to figure out who did what to whom, legal experts said.Those likely to face prosecution are gang members who fired on about two dozen police waiting outside in anticipation of violence.Those inside, where the fighting was widespread and deadly among members of gangs not known for cooperating with police, may be able to escape serious criminal charges by saying they feared for their lives."It appears to me that a number of these people may very well have a legitimate self-defense claim in light of the gangs being there and prepared for battle," former Galveston County Assistant District Attorney Michael Haskell said.(Additional reporting by Brendan O'Brien in Milwaukee; Editing by Lisa Shumaker)

U.S. bird flu causes egg shortage, emergency measures-Reuters By P.J. Huffstutter and Bill Berkrot-May 23, 2015 9:17 AM-YAHOONEWS
CHICAGO/NEW YORK (Reuters) - As a virulent avian influenza outbreak continues to spread across the Midwestern United States, some egg-dependent companies are contemplating drastic steps - importing eggs from overseas or looking to egg alternatives.A spokeswoman for Archer Daniels Midland Co said that as egg supplies tighten and prices rise, the food processing and commodities company has received numerous inquiries from manufacturers about the plant-based egg substitutes it makes.With a strong dollar bolstering the buying power of U.S. importers, some companies are scouting for egg supplies abroad."The U.S. has never imported any significant amount of eggs, because we've always been a very low-cost producer," said Tom Elam of FarmEcon, an agricultural consulting company. "Now, that's no longer the case."The United States is grappling with its biggest outbreak of bird flu on record, which has led to the culling of 40 million birds. The virus has been confirmed on commercial farms and backyard flocks in 16 U.S. states and in Canada.The highly infectious virus has not crossed over to humans in the United States, as it did in Asia following a 2003 outbreak, but transmission to humans is possible, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.An industry group representing U.S. bakers began pushing the U.S. Department of Agriculture and Congress this week to speed up approvals for egg imports."We have members whose egg suppliers are already cutting back how much they'll receive in the next few weeks, while others are not getting any," said Cory Martin, vice president of government relations for the American Bakers Association. "They're looking for eggs everywhere. And the problem is, too, there's not enough egg substitute available right now to make up for the demand."Still, companies wanting to import eggs may have to look far afield."Canada is short on eggs and has been buying heavily from the U.S. for the last several years," said Rick Brown, a senior vice president of Urner Barry, a commodity market analysis firm. "Mexico has been dealing with its own outbreaks of avian influenza, so they're banned from importing into the U.S. The logical place people will be looking now would be Europe."Avril, a farmer-controlled agri-food group that owns France's largest egg brand, Matines, said it has seen an increase recently in demand from the United States and elsewhere in the Americas and plans to start making shipments to the Americas in June.A spokesman for Avril told Reuters on Friday most of its exports would be heading to Mexico, though he noted that shipments to the United States were a possibility.
ECONOMIC BITE
Exporting eggs into the United States from Europe will not be easy. Regulatory differences mean European Union egg producers must seek an individual license to export and sometimes change procedures to bring safety standards into line.But it is still an attractive business opportunity.The French embassy in Washington is helping one French egg company start the process to obtain an export certificate, a French farm ministry spokesman said.The Dutch also are positioning themselves as an egg exporter to the United States too, French egg industry group SNIPO said."The bird flu epidemic developing in the U.S. means it is necessary to start discussions as quickly as possible to benefit from opportunities in this market," SNIPO said in an emailed statement, adding that French authorities had not responded as swiftly as their Dutch counterparts.
PRICES SOAR
Meanwhile, companies sticking with egg suppliers closer to home are facing sharply higher prices as a result of the outbreak. Nearly 30 percent of U.S. breaker eggs - which includes liquid, dried or frozen eggs used by food manufacturers - has disappeared due to the outbreak, according to Martin and federal data.
The outbreak has led to a sharp uptick in the wholesale price of such eggs, from 63 cents a dozen in late April, when the first egg-laying flock was reported infected, to $1.83 a dozen this week, Brown said.The wholesale price of "shell eggs," typically sold in cartons at grocery stores, has also risen, from $1.19 a dozen in late April to $2.03 a dozen this week, Brown said.Nevertheless, some food makers are turning to the more expensive shell eggs to supplement supplies, although that means an additional cost to send the eggs to a breaking facility that will crack the shells, Elam said.Analysts at Goldman Sachs predict consumers will ultimately spend an additional $7.5 billion to $8 billion because of the egg supply squeeze.Nestlé SA - which uses eggs for some of its Dreyer's, Edy's and Häagen-Dazs ice cream products - said it is braced for shortages and working with suppliers to help protect hens.Dunkin' Brands Group Inc told Reuters it will leave it up to franchisees to decide whether to swallow the cost hikes they're seeing or pass them on to consumers.
A MATTER OF LIFE OR DEATH
For some companies, having an adequate supply of fertilized eggs can be a matter of life or death. Some vaccine makers, including Merck & Co Inc, maintain their own hen flocks to produce eggs used for incubating vaccines that protect against diseases such as measles and mumps.Merck said it is taking no chances with its chicken flocks as avian influenza continues to spread - security is tight around the birds, and the health of the hens is continuously monitored.Sanofi Pasteur, the vaccines division of Sanofi, said it too is keeping close tabs on the outbreak – particularly with the state agriculture department in Pennsylvania, home to some of its suppliers and the fourth-largest U.S. egg-laying flock. So far, no avian influenza cases have been identified there."We continue to maintain preventive measures for our egg supply system, including biosecurity and physical security procedures, to provide our suppliers with protection from being affected by this or any avian outbreak," the company told Reuters in a statement.And GlaxoSmithKline Plc told Reuters it is reinforcing biosafety standards at more than 30 Canadian egg-laying farms that are dedicated to producing eggs for the company’s human flu vaccines.The company has more egg supplies than it needs for its flu vaccine production in Canada and Germany, a spokeswoman said.But as the bird flu outbreak spreads in the United States, she added, “we are monitoring the current situation closely and have alerted all of our supply farms.”(This version of the story corrects French industry group name, shows it referred to Dutch interest, not farm ministry spokesman)(Additional reporting by Karl Plume in Chicago, Lisa Baertlein in Los Angeles, Anjali Athavaley in New York, Sybille de La Hamaide in Bazancourt, France, and Gus Trompiz in Paris Editing by Jo Winterbottom, Sue Horton and Matthew Lewis)

05/23/2015-Blasphemy in Afghanistan: Civil society mobilises against the mullahs-Kabul - Artists perform the scene of Farkhunda's lynching, in protest-Paolo Affatato-vatican insider
rome-The lynching of a young Muslim woman accused of blasphemy has sparked protests again: there is a glimmer of hope regarding the question of religious freedom, not forgetting, however, that in nearby Pakistan, a Christian couple met the same fate.Farkhunda was just 28 years old when she was lynched last 19 March, by a frenzied crowd that accused her unjustly of burning pages from the Quran. Farkhunda, a Muslims woman believed to have committed “blasphemy”, was massacred amid the indifference of the police. She was beaten up, stoned, dragged through the streets and burnt. But today, her martyrdom – this is how human rights activists refer to it – could mark the beginning of a new season in Afghanistan.The deceit behind the lynching soon came to light. The Minister of Interior, Noor-ul-Haq Ulumi, himself recognised Farkhunda’s complete innocence. She was condemned because as a young girl she had exposed a mullah who had been writing false tawiz. The tawiz is a locket usually containing verses from the Quran intended as an amulet, a practice that is common in Afghanistan. The mullah in question railed against Farkhunda, egging on the crowd which started attacking her. The scene took place in front of the Shah-e Du Shamshira (King of two Swords) mosque, right in the centre of Kabul.Farkhunda’s death triggered an unexpected and significant protest by Afghan society. Thousands of people, especially women, demonstrated in Kabul for days, brandishing anti-police and anti-mullah slogans. They were calling out for the guilty to be brought to justice so that the girl’s blood was not shed in vein.The justice system concluded its proceedings within about a month. At the start of May, four men were sentenced to death for the woman’s murder and another eight to life imprisonment. 11 policemen were sentenced to a year in prison for failing to prevent Farkhunda’s death. Although the judge made no distinctions in terms of rank, giving all of them the same punishment, at least it did send out a message and the murder did not go unpunished.Observers both inside and outside the country having been speaking about an unprecedented mobilisation which the mullahs attempted to smear, trying to pass it off as an “anti-Islamic” effort or claiming it was “paid for from outside”. But the population was not fooled and the political and judicial institutions did take demonstrators’ requests into consideration.In recent years, the role of human rights associations, research foundations, women’s networks, NGOs and groups – a “third force” in a country that is caught between the Taliban and warlords – has been strengthened. This third force is trying to push the democratisation process along and build a personal and social rights framework. The first international seminar on Afghan civil society studies organised in Kabul two years ago, said that “instilling a sense of responsibility in civil society is essential in order to launch a social reconstruction and ensure human rights are guaranteed”.Other rights that still need to be guaranteed are the freedom of conscience and religion which is still not protected. The rigidly Islamic Constitution – which does mentions religious freedom – it seems impossible to profess any other faith other than Islam and display non-Islamic religious symbols. The country is seriously lacking in the field of human rights and freedoms, while the rights of women and children are systematically violated.In this context, the work of civil society is invaluable. Giuseppe Moretti, Superior of the Missio sui Iuris in Afghanistan, recalled the urgent need to “make civil society a protagonist and work toward building the real foundations of democracy: schools, hospitals, jobs, fair salaries. This would make it possible to stabilise and pacify a country. The Church, despite its small size, is doing its bit: We have built the “School of peace” in a village on the outskirts of Kabul, which provides an education to more than 850 children.”Alongside Farkhunda’s story, is that of the Christian couple Shabhaz and Shama Masih who were accused of blasphemy, lynched and burned alive in Pakistan in November 2014 in the city of Kot Radha Kishan in the country’s Punjab province. This was another test of justice in the “land of the pure”.In recent days, an anti-terrorism court officially charged 106 people with the couple’s murder, which was instigated by three religious leaders of local mosques. A crowd of 400 Muslims apparently asked Masih and his wife to convert to Islam or face the consequences of a blasphemous action. When the couple refused, the mob killed them.According to the Christian lawyers, the trial was a fundamental step in showing that there is equal justice for everyone in Pakistan and does not discriminate in cases where the victims belong to religious minorities.
Syria says Islamic State executes hundreds in Palmyra-Reuters By Mariam Karouny-may 24,15-yahoonews
BEIRUT (Reuters) - Islamic State fighters have executed at least 400 people in Palmyra since capturing the ancient Syrian city four days ago, Syrian state media said on Sunday.It was not immediately possible to verify the account, but it was consistent with reports by activists that the Islamist fighters had carried out executions since capturing the city from government troops.The militants seized the city of 50,000 people, site of some of the world's most extensive and best preserved ancient Roman ruins, on Wednesday, days after also capturing the city of Ramadi in neighboring Iraq.The two near simultaneous victories were Islamic State's biggest successes since a U.S.-led coalition began an air war against the fighters last year, and have forced an examination of whether the strategy is working.The Sunni Muslim militants have proclaimed a caliphate to rule over all Muslims from territory they hold in both Syria and Iraq. They have a history of carrying out mass killings in towns and cities they capture, and of destroying ancient monuments which they consider evidence of paganism."The terrorists have killed more than 400 people.. and mutilated their bodies, under the pretext that they cooperated with the government and did not follow orders," Syria's state news agency said, citing residents inside the city.It added that dozens of those killed were state employees, including the head of nursing department at the hospital and all her family members.Islamic State supporters have posted videos on the Internet they say show fighters going room to room in government buildings searching for government troops and pulling down pictures of President Bashar al-Assad and his father.Activists have said on social media that hundreds of bodies, believed to be government loyalists, were in the streets.The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights, which monitors violence in the country with a network of sources on the ground, says that some people were beheaded in the town since it fell but has not given an estimate for the toll among civilians.It says at least 300 soldiers were killed in the days of fighting before the city was captured."A bigger number of troops have disappeared and it is not clear where they are," Rami Abdulrahman from the Observatory told Reuters.
TROOPS EVACUATE HOSPITAL
Islamic State is the most powerful of countless mainly Sunni Muslim groups fighting against the government of President Assad, a member of the Shi'ite-derived Alawite sect. The four-year-old civil war has killed a quarter of a million people and driven nearly 8 million from their homes.Western countries and their Arab allies are bombing Islamic State but supporting other anti-Assad forces elsewhere in the country, where government troops have lost territory in recent months.Dozens of Syrian troops evacuated a strategically-located position inside a hospital in Idlib province in the northwest of the country last week, where they had held out since April under siege.Syrian state television said on Sunday its air force had killed 300 insurgents in strikes that broke the siege of the Jisr al-Shughour hospital. The al Qaeda-linked Nusra Front, an insurgent group involved in the offensive in the area, said the government forces had fled.State television aired footage on Sunday showing wounded soldiers arriving at another hospital in the nearby coastal area, stronghold of Assad's supporters.The Observatory said at least 261 soldiers including 90 officers had been killed in the past month. The toll includes the head of special forces, General Muheiddeine Mansour.Assad has lost large parts of Idlib province to insurgents since late March, when the provincial capital fell. Assad had himself publicly addressed the situation at Jisr al-Shughour hospital this month, saying the army would reinforce the besieged troops there he described as heroes.(Reporting by Mariam Karouny; editing by Peter Graff)
Saudi forces and Yemen's Houthis trade heavy fire, border crossing hit-Reuters-may 24,15-yahoonews
CAIRO (Reuters) - Saudi forces and Yemen's Houthi militia traded heavy artillery fire which destroyed part of the main border crossing between the two countries overnight, residents said on Sunday, an escalation of the two-month war.The Haradh border crossing, the largest for people and goods between the world's top oil exporter, Saudi Arabia, and its impoverished neighbor, was evacuated amid shelling which razed its departure lounge and passport section, witnesses said.Residents of several Yemeni villages in the area left their homes and fled from the frontier, which has turned into a front line between the kingdom and the Iran-allied rebels.Arab air raids hit military bases and weapons stores in the capital Sanaa and local officials said a mid-level Houthi commander, Abu Bassam al-Kibsi, was killed in an air strike in the central province of Raymah.Saudi Arabia has led an Arab coalition bombing the Houthis and backing southern Yemeni fighters opposing the group and loyal to the exiled government in Saudi Arabia headed by President Abd-Rabbu Mansour Hadi.The Sunni Muslim states believe the Shi'ite Houthis are a proxy for influence by their arch rival Iran, but their campaign has yet to reverse the rebels' battlefield gains.Local fighters combating the Houthis in Yemen's south reported Saudi-led air strikes on a major air base controlled by the group in Lahj province and say they killed eight Houthi fighters in an ambush in Dalea province on Sunday.Residents in the central city of Taiz said Houthi forces and pro-Hadi fighters fired tank and artillery shells at each other throughout the city overnight, killing five civilians.The Houthis seized control of a military base on a strategic mountaintop in the center of the city, eyewitnesses said.A United Nations-backed peace conference set for May 28 in Geneva remains in doubt, as Hadi's exiled government in Saudi Arabia has expressed reluctance to attend before the Houthis recognize their authority and quit Yemen's main cities.The Houthis have demanded a ceasefire before any talks.(Reporting by Mohammed Ghobari; Writing by Noah Browning; Editing by Robert Birsel and Raissa Kasolowsky)

Russia's new 'undesirables' law draws Western ire-AFP By Maria Antonova-may 24,15-yahoonews
Moscow (AFP) - The United States led criticism of Russia's new law targeting "undesirable" NGOs, which activists fear will stifle critical voices at international rights groups working in the country.Under the law signed by President Vladimir Putin on Saturday evening, Russian prosecutors will be able to target foreign groups whose "undesirable activities" are deemed to threaten "state security" or the "basic values of the Russian state."Such groups and their publications risk being banned in Russia, having their bank accounts blocked and violators face fines or prison terms of up to six years.People cooperating with such entities would also be hit with fines and could be banned from entry to Russia, according to the text, which sailed through the two chambers of Russia's parliament.Critics have said the vague wording of the legislation, and a process that bypasses the court system, means that any group or business could be targeted.US State Department deputy spokeswoman Marie Harf said the law illustrated increasing restrictions on criticism of the Kremlin."We are concerned this new power will further restrict the work of civil society in Russia and is a further example of the Russian government's growing crackdown on independent voices and intentional steps to isolate the Russian people from the world," she said in a statement."Russians, like people everywhere, deserve a government that supports an open marketplace of ideas, transparent and accountable governance, equal treatment under the law and the ability to exercise their rights without fear of retribution."
- 'Lowering the curtain' -
The "undesirables" law builds upon existing legislation branding groups with foreign funding as "foreign agents," passed shortly after Putin began his third historic term in the Kremlin in 2012, despite massive protests.Russian officials have accused NATO of trying to undermine the country and views internal criticism as the work of spies and traitors.The Kremlin's sensitivity to reproval has been accentuated by the West's isolation of Russia -- and levying of sanctions on the country -- over its Crimea annexation and alleged military involvement in Ukraine.Veteran rights activist Lyudmila Alexeyeva said the newest law particularly threatens rights groups like Human Rights Watch (HRW) and Amnesty International, which have a sizeable Russian presence and regularly issue damning statements.They "work on monitoring citizen rights and freedoms and often speak out with critical reports, which many people don't like," Alexeyeva told Interfax news agency."This law is another step toward lowering the curtain between our country and the West."In a joint statement last week Amnesty and HRW blasted the law as "the latest chapter in a crackdown" on NGOs and free speech in the country, where Putin's ratings soared after the Crimea annexation and remain above 80 percent over a year later, despite a decline in real incomes and other economic troubles.Britain's Minister for Europe David Lidington said the law was "yet another example of the Russian authorities' harassment of NGOS.""The new law will directly affect the ability of international organisations to work, promote and protect human rights in Russia and is clearly aimed at undermining the work of Russian civil society," Lidington said in a statement urging the Kremlin "not to interfere in the valuable work of NGOs".

Local elections in Spain test upstart parties' voter appeal-Associated Press By HAROLD HECKLE-may 24,15-yahoonews
MADRID (AP) — Spaniards were voting Sunday in local elections that could see two upstart parties end nearly four decades of dominance by the ruling conservative Popular Party and its rival, the center-left Socialists.At stake are 8,122 town halls as well as parliament seats in 13 of Spain's 17 regions. More than 35 million voters are registered.Opinion polls indicate voters are fed up with Spain's economic downturn and the corruption scandals that have rocked both main political parties, which have alternated in power.That dissatisfaction has opened the door to the centrist, pro-business Citizens party and the left-wing We Can party — which began operating on a national scale only last year.The two most important electoral battlegrounds will be for control of the capital — Madrid — and for Barcelona, the regional capital of the relatively prosperous but heavily indebted northeastern Catalonia region.In Madrid, where protesters angry with austerity measures and corruption camped out in the Puerta del Sol square for weeks in 2011 and helped fuel the worldwide "Occupy" movement, the Popular Party could lose its long-standing majority." Voting for We Can was the only option for me," said university student Mikel Redondo, 19, in Madrid. "The political establishment needs to be shaken up and it's the best option to achieve that."The We Can group was born out of that Madrid protest, which railed against the stinging cutbacks introduced by Prime Minister Mariano Rajoy's Popular Party and the widespread mismanagement that led to a bailout for Spain's banking sector after the country's once-thriving real estate sector collapsed."There are lots of corruption cases and people realize the usual parties are simply carrying on as usual," said Gerardo Cobos, 31, in Madrid.In Barcelona, Ada Colau, a popular anti-eviction advocate who is running for mayor with backing from We Can, could upset the region's long-dominant conservative Convergence and Union party."We are ending an era," said Colau after casting her vote. "The destiny of our city might now be in our hands," she added.

APEC trade chiefs vow to speed up work in WTO-Associated Press-may 24,15-yahoonews
MANILA, Philippines (AP) — Trade ministers from 21 Asia-Pacific countries on Sunday issued strong support to the World Trade Organization's efforts to boost global trade amid a flurry of regional free trade agreements.The ministers from the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation grouping of nations vowed at the end of their two-day meeting on the central Philippine resort island of Boracay to ratify by December a landmark trade facilitation deal and to contribute to a work program to conclude the much-delayed Doha round of trade negotiations.They reaffirmed in a separate document from their annual joint statement "the centrality and primacy of the multilateral trading system under the auspices of the WTO" in promoting trade and economic growth.They also promised to exercise restraint in implementing measures consistent with WTO provisions but which have a significant protectionist effect, "and to promptly rectify such measures, where they are implemented."At the same time, the ministers' joint statement welcomed progress on a collective study on opportunities and challenges ahead of the Free Trade Area of the Asia-Pacific. They instructed officials to report updates on it by November and to have a final report by next year's ministerial meeting.APEC leaders agreed in Beijing in November to accelerate efforts to create the FTAAP "as early as possible" and endorsed a road map to its creation.The FTAAP goal is being pursued as talks for the Trans-Pacific Partnership free trade initiative of 12 countries — including the United States, Japan and Australia, but excluding China — have been delayed by legislative debate in the U.S. over President Barack Obama's controversial "fast-track" trade bill to complete the TPP deal.The bill was finally passed the by U.S. Senate on Friday, but it is expected to face a tougher time in the House, which resumes sessions on June 1.U.S. Trade Representative Michael Froman told a news conference in Boracay that ministers from TPP member countries took the opportunity to meet over breakfast Sunday to review the status of the negotiations and talk about the work program going forward."Our negotiators are working as we speak and working through issues," he said. "We hope to conclude it soon; we're very much in the end game."But he declined to specify a timetable. A ministerial meeting originally scheduled for this week has been delayed after other members preferred to wait until after the U.S. House of Representatives also gives Obama authority to complete trade deals that Congress could approve or reject, but not change."We reaffirm our shared vision that regional economic integration should not create unnecessary barriers between economies and lead to fragmentation of trade and investment flows," APEC ministers said in their statement.They are also endorsing to their leaders a raft of measures bolstering micro enterprises' ability to take part in global trade. Small companies comprise 97 percent of businesses in APEC countries, and contribute significantly to employment and poverty alleviation.The action plan includes streamlining rules of origin requirements, promoting greater use of information technology, cutting customs red tape, assisting micro enterprises in meeting requirements and widening their options for financing.
Public consultation on circular economy starts 'in few days' By Peter Teffer-euobserver
Brussels, 22. May, 09:29-Citizens and businesses will be able to influence the EU commission's revised circular economy strategy using a public consultation which will be launched “in a few days”, a commission official said on Thursday (21 May).Aurore Maillet, member of the cabinet of environment commissioner Karmenu Vella, told an audience on Thursday that the commission is examining how it can “promote circular economy across the whole value chain”.The circular economy is a theoretical concept in which waste is being re-used as a new resource to limit the negative effects of the scarcity of raw materials.But it is about more than just recycling. In a perfect circular economy, what will happen to material is considered already at the design phase of a product.“Since the industrial revolution, our economies have developed a ‘take-make-consume and dispose’ pattern of growth — a linear model based on the assumption that resources are abundant, available, easy to source and cheap to dispose of”, according to the previous commission's strategy paper on circular economy.The paper was accompanied by a legislative proposal for a revision of recycling and waste legislation.Shortly after the Juncker commission took office, it indicated it would scrap the proposal.After a public outcry, the commission announced it will table “a broader, more ambitious” package that will replace proposals drawn up by president Juncker's predecessor.“It's good to look at waste, but we need to close the circle”, said Maillet at an event in Brussels organised by the European Policy Centre.“We need to look beyond that and have a more holistic approach which is really what makes a difference in the new commission.”
Two parts
The new circular economy package will consist of two parts.The first is a revised legislative proposal on targets for reducing waste. The degree to which material is recycled varies greatly among EU countries, with Germany recycling almost half of the material, and Romania depositing almost everything in landfills.The commission wants a “country-specific approach” to goals on reducing waste, but Maillet said that does not mean that there will be national targets.“We are still looking at what is the best way to make the waste targets and waste proposal as such more country-specific.”She noted that the commission already has “a lot of input” for the waste legislation which it will use, including an impact assessment, a public consultation, and ideas from the EU parliament and member states.The second part of the package will be an “action plan” on the rest of the circular economy.“We are going to look at products before they become waste, when they are produced”, Maillet said, adding that the “consumption aspect” will also be involved.The online consultation will take three months, but Maillet said she is confident the dialogue is not going to delay the process. The commission has promised the circular economy strategy will be published before the end of the year.
A chance of convincing member states
The new rules will need approval from the European Parliament and the national governments.Although the commission was criticised for withdrawing the original circular economy package, one diplomatic source from the member states told this website that that previous set of rules was "never going to go anywhere anyway" because it only covered the recycling side, not the production side of the economy."Now they have a chance to come up with a real package that has a chance of convincing the member states, and that has a chance to put the EU economy on the path of greater resource efficiency", the source said."I think the commission will want to go down [in history] as a commission that has put sustainability at the centre of what they're doing."

50 million gallons of water lost after California dam vandalized: newspaper-Reuters-May 23, 2015 2:56 AM-YAHOONEWS
SAN FRANCISCO (Reuters) - Some 50 million gallons of water were lost after an act of vandalism damaged an inflatable dam near San Francisco, the local Oakland Tribune newspaper reported on Friday.
The loss comes as the state is in its fourth year of a devastating drought that has prompted Governor Jerry Brown to impose the state's first-ever mandatory cutbacks in urban water use, up to 36 percent in some communities.Alameda County Water District officials told the newspaper that the agency reported the incident, which caused the water to run into the San Francisco Bay, to police around 11:30 a.m. on Thursday."This is a very significant loss of water under any circumstances, and more so in the drought conditions we are experiencing," water district general manager Robert Shaver told the newspaper. "It is an utterly senseless, destructive and wasteful thing to do."The 49 million gallons were to be used by residents and businesses in the city of Fremont, some 33 miles (53 km) southeast of San Francisco, and surrounding communities, officials told the paper.Water officials said that while the amount of water could have supplied 500 homes for a year, the loss would not likely have a "long-term impact on its water supply operations," according to the paper.Police told the paper that no one had been arrested for the act of felony vandalism.Regulators in an attempt to combat the continuing drought conditions approved a plan on Friday by some of the state's most senior water rights holders -- growers in the Sacramento-San Joaquin River Delta -- to voluntarily cut water use by 25 percent in exchange for assurances that they would not face further curtailments during the growing season.(Reporting by Curtis Skinner; Editing by Mark Potter)
California farmers agree to cut water use. Enough to stem the drought?-Riparian water users in the Sacramento-San Joaquin River Delta are voluntarily cutting back farm water in return for certainty through this year’s growing season. It’s a start in curbing agricultural water use in drought-stricken California.Christian Science Monitor By Brad Knickerbocker-may 23,15
Now the other shoe (or bucket) has dropped, it seems.On Friday, the State Water Resources Control Board approved a proposal from riparian water right holders in the Sacramento-San Joaquin River Delta to voluntarily cut back water use in exchange for assurances they would not face further riparian curtailment during the June-September growing season.Under the agreement, participating growers will be able to either reduce water diversions under their riparian rights by 25 percent, or fallow 25 percent of their land below 2013 levels.“This proposal helps Delta growers manage the risk of potentially deeper curtailment, while ensuring significant water conservation efforts in this fourth year of drought,” water board chair Felicia Marcus said in announcing the agreement. “It allows participating growers to share in the sacrifice that people throughout the state are facing because of the severe drought, while protecting their economic well-being by giving them some certainty regarding exercise of the State Water Board’s enforcement discretion at the beginning of the planting season.”In other words, save water now or the state may make you lose more water later. Officials say the new plan for Sacramento-San Joaquin River Delta riparian water users nay become a template for other agricultural water users.The conservation program was proposed by riparian water rights holders – those who own property that abuts a river or stream in the 600,000-acre Sacramento-San Joaquin River Delta and divert water for use on that property.Junior water right holders in the Sacramento and San Joaquin river watersheds and others have already been curtailed for the second consecutive year, the water board notes. Last year, hundreds of thousands of acres of farmland were fallowed.Hundreds of farmers are eligible for the new riparian agreement.“I’m happy to see people working together to find creative ways to stretch the water,” Ellen Hanak, a water expert at the Public Policy Institute of California, told the Sacramento Bee. Peter Gleick, head of the Pacific Institute think tank in Oakland, agreed: “If farmers are willing to take voluntary limits on how much water they use in return for more reliability and less uncertainty, the whole state benefits.”California produces half of America’s fruits, vegetables, and nuts, so the state can be said to feed the rest of the country. Still, most Americans see drought in the West – parts of Nevada, Oregon, and Utah are parched as well – as a regional problem.
That’s wrong, says Cynthia Barnett, the author of three books on water.“Drought's consequences also reach beyond the Western states, to grocery stores and East Coast pastureland,” she writes in the Los Angeles Times. “Longer term, persistent drought could push more water-intense crops and livestock from the arid West to the relatively wet East, where many regions are dealing with the twin water woes of scarcity and pollution. As drought has reduced cattle herds across the West, some Eastern states – including Indiana, New York, Ohio and Pennsylvania – have seen an increase in cattle numbers.”“Several news articles in recent weeks have suggested that Southern cotton-growing states are ideal places to absorb California crops – with no mention of the water strife that plagues the region.Rice cultivation in Arkansas over the last century has depleted the Mississippi River Alluvial Aquifer by 90 feet. Water has been so mismanaged among Florida, Georgia and Alabama that the states have spent 20 years and millions of dollars fighting in court, when they could have been working together to use less,” Ms. Barnett writes. “Growing the right crops in the right places is a worthwhile goal. But simply moving the problem of over-extraction from one region to another is not the answer.”To be included in the new riparian agreement in California, participants will have to submit a specific plan to achieve the program’s conservation requirements by June 1, and the State Water Board will conduct spot checks during the growing season.

Five oil-soaked pelicans found dead in area of California oil spill-Reuters-May 23, 2015 9:42 AM-YAHOONEWS
LOS ANGELES (Reuters) - The carcasses of five petroleum-soaked pelicans have been recovered from California's Santa Barbara coastline, marking the first apparent sea bird fatalities stemming from the oil spill there, officials overseeing response to the disaster said on Friday.The body of a dolphin with no visible signs of oil also turned up on Friday in Santa Barbara Harbor, though a necropsy - the animal equivalent of an autopsy - must be conducted on the carcasses of the marine mammal and birds to determine conclusively if they were victims of the spill.Eight oil-stained pelicans have been rescued alive from the spill zone since Tuesday's pipeline rupture, along with two sea lions and one elephant seal, said Ashley Settle, a spokeswoman for the joint-agency command for cleanup and recovery operations in Santa Barbara.

Pipeline spill could further hamper big California oil projects-Reuters By Kristen Hays-May 22, 2015 9:53 PM-YAHOONEWS
HOUSTON (Reuters) - Hundreds of barrels of oil that gushed from a ruptured coastal pipeline in scenic California this week could stiffen opposition to large oil projects that companies want to build in the state, notably those to deliver cheap U.S. crude on trains.Several proposed oil-by-rail offloading terminals in California were already being contested in light of several fiery crude train derailments since 2013 that have stoked safety concerns about spills and explosions.Now, the sight of oil washing up on the shores of Santa Barbara could further galvanize rail opponents after up to 2,500 barrels of crude leaked on Tuesday from a pipeline owned by Plains All American Pipeline LP ."The more oil we're moving through the state, the greater the risk of these sorts of accidents," said Paul Cort, an attorney with EarthJustice, which has sued to stop crude deliveries at Plains' 70,000 barrels per day (bpd) oil-by-rail terminal in Bakersfield.Past spills have prompted policy changes. A leak of 100,000 barrels of crude off Santa Barbara in 1969 led to bans on new leases for offshore drilling in California.The latest spill could complicate regulatory approvals."It's certainly not good news for anyone trying to permit any kind of oil-related facilities in California," said John Auers, a consultant at Turner, Mason & Co in Dallas.Refiners Valero Energy Corp and Phillips 66 want to use railways to transport cheap crude from onshore fields in North America to northern California refineries to displace more pricey foreign imports.But the projects, which could help mitigate upward pressure on gasoline prices that are among the highest in the United States, have been repeatedly delayed to allow for lengthy environmental reviews.Some companies have given up.Nearly two months ago, WesPac Energy-Pittsburg LLC withdrew the 51,000 bpd oil-by-rail component in a broader proposal that has been awaiting permits from the city for more than two years. WesPac now proposes that crude would move into the terminal only via pipeline or vessel if approved. Valero last year scrapped crude-by-rail plans at its Los Angeles-area refinery.And even some companies with permits face more hurdles.EarthJustice is suing local permitting agencies over both the Plains' Bakersfield operation, which the company aims to expand to 140,000 bpd, and a new Alon USA Energy rail project nearby slated for next year."People trying to build projects that bring North American crude oil to displace imports at California refineries now have another thing they have to deal with," said David Hackett, a consultant with Stillwater Associates in Irvine, California.(Additional reporting by Rory Carroll in San Francisco; Editing by Terry Wade and Grant McCool)

9 There went in two and two unto Noah into the ark, the male and the female, as God had commanded Noah.
10 And it came to pass after seven days, that the waters of the flood were upon the earth.
11 In the six hundredth year of Noah’s life, in the second month, the seventeenth day of the month, the same day were all the fountains of the great deep broken up, and the windows of heaven were opened.

Drenching rains force scores of rescues in Oklahoma City-Reuters-MAY 24,15-YAHOONEWS
(Reuters) - More than 70 people were rescued on Saturday after severe storms soaked Oklahoma during a month of record rainfall, authorities said.The Oklahoma City Fire Department said in a statement it had rescued more than 70 people after the drenching storms triggered flash floods in the city.The storms also spurred several small tornadoes throughout the day, causing limited damage, officials said.The National Weather Service in Norman, Oklahoma, said Oklahoma City was just .11 inch shy of the all-time record for rainfall in any month.It warned of flooding and advised people not to drive into any water covering roadways. Other parts of the state have already broken monthly rainfall records.(Reporting by Heide Brandes, writing by Chris Michaud)
