MAPPING CRIME
Police around the world are using technology to anticipate where
guys will strike next.
the bad
A decade ago, Bogotá had a bad name. Violent crime was out of control. Rather than
buying more guns or patrol cars, Bogotá’s cops went for something bigger: science.
The city began superimposing millions of police bulletins onto digitized city maps to
pinpoint which bandits were at work and where, down to the doorstep. By displaying
crime data on easy-to read city maps, police were able to target urban hot spots and
optimize street patrols. Murders have since fallen by a third in the past five years and
the police’s approval rating has soared. “Crime mapping has made us faster and more
efficient,” says Gen. Luiz Alberto Gómez, head of Bogotá Metropolitan Police. “We are
serving the neighborhoods better.” So are police in several countries, as the virtues of
high-tech crime fighting become clear. Spiking crime rates everywhere from Colombia
to Brazil, India to South Africa, have encouraged more and more cops to draw on
technology to anticipate where criminals are going to strike next, so their thinly
stretched forces can be at the right place at the right time. “Without computerized crime
analysis,” says Alexandre Peres, a government security strategist in Pernambuco,
northeast Brazil, “policing is guesswork.” The trend goes back to the early 1990s, when
New York City police started using CompStat, a computer-driven mapping tool. In the
next decade or so, violent crimes tumbled by 70 percent; the city now ranks 222nd in
the country in crime. Major cities across the United States and Europe followed New
York’s lead, and now the rest of the world is catching on.

Keep your kisses short in Tangerang
JAKARTA (Reuters) - Unrelated people who kiss each other on the lips for more than
five minutes at public places in the Indonesian city of Tangerang will face arrest, local
media said Friday.
The government in Tangerang, a suburb west of Jakarta, defended the regulation as a
practical guideline for its officers to follow up on tough and heavily criticized antiprostitution laws passed by the city council last year. “Please do not dramatize this. We
will not arrest people at will as we are not oppressors,” Ahmad Lutfi, head of the city’s
public order department, told the Koran Tempo newspaper. Lutfi declined to comment
on whether officers would be armed with stopwatches, Tempo reported. It was not
clear if the guideline referred to an uninterrupted five-minute kiss.
Kissing in public is generally frowned upon in Indonesia, especially in rural,
predominantly Muslim areas, but giving a time limit for such behavior is unheard of.
Around 85 percent of Indonesia’s 220 million people follow Islam, giving the sprawling
archipelago the largest number of Muslims of any country. Although most are
moderates, there is a growing tendency toward showing Islamic identity and
conservative attitudes.
That backdrop, along with the recent devolution of power to regional governments, has
given several regions space to create tighter rules on morality. The new antiprostitution laws in Tangerang, a city of more than one million, sparked complaints from
liberals in February after a female restaurant worker waiting for her husband on a street
at night was picked up because police officers thought she was a prostitute. At the
national level, draft legislation addressing pornography issues has been circulating for
years in parliament and debate on it is reaching a peak. The original draft proposed a
ban on public kissing on the lips but it is unclear whether the particular article will
survive in the final version.

The condition of the teaching profession in the USA is akin to that of many
underdeveloped countries.
Time and time again we have heard how undervalued teachers are in terms of salary
and their status in American society. We have heard from teachers who overwork by
having to hold two or three jobs just to get by. After 12 years of service, the average
annual salary for teaching is approximately $30.000. Also teachers have little say in
such crucial decisions as, for example, textbook selection.
Such conditions, together with the highly decentralized educational system discourage
the best and the brightest from entering the profession or staying in it; the very people
we d like to have teaching our children. Also, there s a severe shortage of teachers in
such fields as mathematics and science: fewer than one third of U.S. high schools offer
Physics taught by qualified teachers.
The decline of education is supposed to threaten our future as a nation and as a
people. Our purpose is not to seek scapegoats, but to define the problems and find
ways to overcome them. There is no time to lose. Education may be costly, but the
costs of ignorance are infinite.

THE COMISSAR S NOT IN TOWN
When Guangzhou resident Ma Yiyong, 57, went to renew his unemployment certificate
last month, something extraordinary happened: he did so efficiently and discreetly, with
a few keystrokes. It used to be really troublesome in the past, "says Ma." I would have
to stand in line several times, and sometimes the government officials weren´t at their
desks. Now it s fast."
China s romance with e-government is now reaching the grass-roots level, bringing
efficiency and convenience to citizens. But its biggest benefit may be in circumventing
one of the last bastions of communism: the infamous neighborhood committees. These
groups of local party members have for decades served as the authorities eyes and
ears. They were also notorious busybodies, making it their business to know who was
having marital problems, grumbling about the government or out of work.

How’s your mood?
For an interesting attempt to measure cause and effect try Mappiness, a project run by
the London School of Economics, which offers a phone app that prompts you to record
your mood and situation.
The Mappiness website says: “We’re particularly interested in how people’s happiness
is affected by their local environment – air pollution, noise, green spaces, and so on –
which the data from Mappiness will be absolutely great for investigating.”
Will it work? With enough people, it might. But there are other problems. We’ve been
using happiness and well-being interchangeably. Is that OK? The difference comes out
in a sentiment like: “We were happier during the war.” But was our well-being also
greater then?

Rio to stage 2016 Olympic Games
Brazil will become the first South American country to host the Olympics after the city
of Rio de Janeiro was chosen to stage the 2016 Games. Rio won a majority of the 95
8
votes at the meeting in Copenhagen, eliminating Madrid in the final round. Tokyo and
Chicago had already been knocked out. "The world has recognised that the time has
come for Brazil," said President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva.
Chicago's early exit was a surprise, after bookmakers made them favourites. US
President Barack Obama had flown to Denmark on Friday morning to join his wife,
Michelle, and make an emotional address to the International Olympic Committee
delegates.
But the gesture - the first time a current US president had addressed the IOC in an
attempt to win the Games - failed to persuade the voters as Chicago became the first
city to see its dream of hosting the biggest sporting event in the world fall by the
wayside. Speaking to reporters at the White House on his return, Mr Obama said he
wished he had come back with better news, but congratulated Brazil for a "truly
historic" win. "As friends to the Brazilian people, we welcome this extraordinary sign of
progress," he said.
The president said he had no doubt that Chicago's bid had been the strongest
possible, could not be prouder of the city, and insisted that he had no regrets about
travelling to Denmark. "I believe it is always a worthwhile endeavour to promote and
boost the United States of America," he
added.(http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport2/hi/olympic_games/8282518.stm)

BRAZIL FLIGHTS CRIPPLED BY STRIKE
Airports have resumed flights in Brazil after air traffic controllers suspended a strike
called to protest about their working conditions. Government negotiators and trade
unions reached an agreement to end the strike, which briefly halted all flights out of all
of the country's 49 airports.
Action had spread across Brazil after air traffic controllers began a hunger strike in
the capital, Brasilia. Thousands of passengers were left stranded by the protest. The
striking controllers had said they had lost all confidence in their commanders and the
equipment at their disposal. Air traffic controllers in Brazil have staged similar protests
since last September, when 154 people were killed in the country's worst air disaster.
The BBC's Tim Hirsch in Sao Paulo says internal flights have been in a state of
chaos since the crash.

Brazilian ethanol is not causing deforestation
Ethanol production in Brazil is not causing deforestation in the Amazon region, says
Peter Zuurbier, Associate Professor and Director of the Latin America Office of
Wageningen University, the world’s leading center of expertise on tropical agriculture.
According to him, the notion often held by NGO’s that sugarcane is displacing cattle
and soybean production into the Amazon is inaccurate. “The real problem lies in illegal
deforestation and lack of property rights, as around 50 percent of the Amazon region
has disputed titles and this is an invitation for timber companies,” he says.
Prof. Zuurbier tries to explain a dynamic process between illegal activities in the
Amazon rainforest and the expansion of agricultural lands towards that region. NGO’s
often state that sugarcane production is displacing cattle and soybean production
towards and into the Amazon, burning down the area to make it suitable for agriculture
and pastures.
According to Zuurbier, however, the process is slightly different. “Well organized
groups and corporations with questionable land titles, but also official land owners
began to chop down large acreages of forest to trade timber, both legally and illegally,”
he says. “Usually, after the empty strips of land were abandoned, cattle owners would
move into these cheap lands. However, after 3 to 4 years of cattle breeding, the thin
soil of the Amazon is completely useless without any form of fertilization and livestock
owners usually move into the next abandoned area. Soybean farmers meanwhile
replace the livestock in these areas, recognizing the opportunity to fertilize the area for
soybean production.”
Prof. Zuurbier says the cause of deforestation and agricultural production in or near the
Amazon, is simply illegal deforestation itself. According to him, the fact that Brazil still
has questionable land titles, no set-aside policy and great difficulty to enforce existing
laws to counter illegal timber trade, are the real reasons why the Amazon rainforest is
in danger.

Two in every three people on the planet–some 4 billion in total–are “excluded from the
rule of law.” In many cases, this begins with the lack of official recognition of their birth:
around 40% of the developing world’s five-yearold children are not registered as even
existing.
Later, people will find that the home they live in, the land they farm, or the business that
they start, is not protected by legally enforceable property rights. Even in the rare cases
when they can afford to go to court, the service is poor. India, for example, has only 11
judges
for
every
1million
people.
These alarming statistics are contained in a report from a commission on the legal
empowerment of the poor, released on June 3rd at the United Nations. It argues that
not only are such statistics evidence of grave injustice, they also reflect one of the main
reasons why so much of humanity remains mired in poverty. Because they are outside
the rule of law, the vast majority of poor people are obliged to work (if they work at all)
in the informal economy, which is less productive than the formal, legal part of the
economy.

SAVING THE WORLD IS WITHIN OUR GRASP
By Bill Gates
Last year my wife, Melinda, and I visited an AIDS clinic in Durban, South Africa. We
met women who walked miles from nearby townships. When they arrived, they were
greeted by a well-trained staff. There was an ample supply of antiretroviral drugs,
which can help people with AIDS stay healthy for years. Patients were receiving
14
counseling.
As we chatted with one of the doctors in the clinic, it struck me: something was
fundamentally
different.
Nearly a decade ago, when Melinda and I started our foundation, we would go to subSaharan Africa or developing countries in other regions and see health workers
struggling with broken equipment and empty medicine chests. We walked down dirty
hallways packed with exhausted mothers holding sick children. (…) But that’s starting
to change. Today governments, aid groups and communities are simply refusing to
accept the notion that diseases like malaria and tuberculosis will haunt us forever. The
evidence
is
in:
these
problems
can
be
solved.
The world can point to a number of victories already. Smallpox is gone, of course, and
polio nearly so. Thanks to the leadership of the Carter Center, we’ve virtually
eliminated guinea-worm disease, an excruciatingly painful parasite that is ingested with
tainted water. There are new treatments available for visceral leishmaniasis, also called
black fever, which is second only to malaria as the world’s deadliest parasite killer.
[…] Some lifesaving solutions can be extremely simple – iodized salt to prevent stunted
growth, for example, or oral rehydration solutions to fight diarrhea. Consider that
one of the easiest ways to cut down on infant mortality is to keep babies warm and dry.
Earlier this year, Save the Children recruited knitters through the internet to knit and
crochet
280,000
caps
for
infants.
Other solutions will arise from pioneering research now underway. Researchers are
hard at work developing vaccines that don’t need refrigeration or needles, which could
make it easier and cheaper to deliver immunization in poor countries. Scientists are
making important progress on new tools, like microbicide gels, to help women protect
themselves against HIV. And clinical trials around the world are now testing what may
be the greatest scientific breakthroughs of our time: vaccines for malaria, Tb and
AIDS.
(…) At the same time, I’m amazed by the work of the Nothing But Nets campaign,
which has managed through Web-based marketing to raise $13 million – mostly from
young
people
–
for
insecticide-treated
bed
nets.
I believe we stand at a moment of unequaled opportunity. Governments must now step
15
up to the plate with more money – wisely targeted – to expand effective global health
programs to reach all those in need. Businesses, community groups and individuals all
play a role as well. When Melinda and I visited that PEPFAR clinic in South Africa, we
were thrilled to see the progress we’ve made against one deadly disease. I’m now
more convinced than ever that we can create a healthier world for everyone.

ENVIRONMENT-BRAZIL: The Amazon Jungle as Vast Savannah
Mario Osava - IPS/IFEJ
RIO DE JANEIRO, Apr 10 (IPS) - An Amazon region that is less lush, where the forest
will be replaced by grasslands, is the image drawn by the latest scientific reports in
which meteorologists are taking the lead, going beyond even the direst warning of
ecologists.
If current trends continue, deforestation, which in the last 30 years claimed nearly
600,000 square kilometres in the Brazilian Amazon alone -- an area equivalent to
Germany and Italy combined -- will have destroyed more than 30 percent of the jungle
by 2050, according to the latest report from the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate
Change (IPCC). This process could "convert into savannah" as much as 60 percent of
the Amazon region, says a 2003 study by Carlos Nobre and Marcos Oyama, of Brazil's
National Institute of Space Research (INPE). Global warming "will greatly amplify"
those effects, says the IPCC in the second volume of its 2007 report.
Average temperatures in the Amazon region could rise an average of 8 degrees
Celsius by the end of the century if the climate change factors continue, says
17
meteorologist José Antonio Marengo, in a report presented to Brazil's Environment
Ministry in February. In some areas, the average temperature could increase as much
as 12 degrees, said Philip Fearnside, a U.S. ecologist and Amazon expert who for the
last 30 years has been working with Brazil's National Institute for Amazonian Research,
INPA. This will happen if nothing is done to contain deforestation or global climate
change, he added.
Warmer temperatures mean that trees consume more water to carry out
photosynthesis, which is why it has such a big effect on forests. But climate change's
great threat to the Amazon is that it could generate a permanent El Niño phenomenon
(a now cyclical warming of surface waters in the Pacific Ocean), manifested in more
heat and longer periods of scant rains north of the Amazon River, says Fearnside, also
a contributor of the IPCC report. That was the case in 1997-1998, when drought
triggered devastating fires in the northern Brazilian state of Roraima. And in 2006, a
moderate El Niño greatly curbed rainfall along the Rio Negro, a main tributary of the
Amazon River.

Amy Winehouse, British Soul Singer With a Troubled Life, Dies at 27
Amy Winehouse, the British singer who found worldwide fame with a sassy, hip-hopinflected take on retro soul, yet became a tabloid fixture as her problems with drugs
and alcohol led to a strikingly public career collapse, was found dead on Saturday in
her apartment in London, the police said. She was 27.
The cause was not immediately known. The police said that they were investigating the
circumstances of the death, but that “at this early stage it is being treated as
unexplained.”
