Capital News ? Woman accused of NYC subway hate crime murder

Posted by AFP on December 30, 2012

NEW YORK, Dec 30 ? A 31-year-old New York woman was scheduled to appear before a judge Sunday after being charged with murder as a hate crime for shoving a Hindu man to his death in front of an oncoming subway train.

Erika Menendez of the Bronx borough was motivated by hatred of Muslims and Hindus, according to the Queens District Attorney?s Office.


?I pushed a Muslim off the train tracks because I hate Hindus and Muslims. Ever since 2001 when they put down the twin towers, I?ve been beating them up,? she told police.

Menendez, who is awaiting arraignment in Queens Criminal Court, faces from 25 years to life in prison if convicted.

The victim, 46-year-old Sunando Sen, was born in India and raised Hindu, a roommate told The New York Times.

The incident took place late Thursday at a station on the number 7 line in Queens.

Menendez ? who was speaking to herself as she paced along the platform, according to witnesses ? pushed the man as the train was pulling into the station. He apparently had his back to Menendez and did not see her.

Police released surveillance camera video footage via Twitter showing a woman running from the scene.

?The defendant is accused of committing what is every subway commuter?s worst nightmare ? being suddenly and senselessly pushed into the path of an oncoming train,? Queens District Attorney Richard Brown said in a statement.

?The victim was allegedly shoved from behind and had no chance to defend himself. Beyond that, the hateful remarks allegedly made by the defendant and which precipitated the defendant?s actions can never be tolerated by a civilized society.?

Sen?s death was eerily similar to that of a 58-year-old man killed on December 3 when he was pushed onto the tracks during a fight with a deranged man at a Manhattan subway station. The assailant, later identified as 30-year-old Naeem Davis, has been charged with murder. Davis is homeless.

A New York Post front page picture of the man on the tracks a split second before he was killed by the oncoming train provoked public fury as to why no one helped him ? and why the tabloid newspaper published the photo.

Several million people use the New York City subway system every day, but incidents of this kind are rare.

Before the December 3 death, the last time someone was pushed onto the rails and hit by a train was in 2010. The woman survived.

Thursday night?s incident appeared to have scared many New York subway riders as they kept closer to the walls as trains rolled into the station.

?It?s horrible,? said 46-year-old city resident Elena Rodriguez. ?We?re feeling so insecure now to be in the subway.?

Microsoft costretta a corteggiare gli sviluppatori iOS

Non ? certamente una posizione cui sono abituati a Redmond, ma d?altro canto in guerra e amore ogni arma ? lecita. Sapevamo gi? che Microsoft ? impegnata da tempo in un corteggiamento serrato degli sviluppatori iOS, all?estero come in Italia, e ci? nasce dal fatto che ha bisogno di apportare velocemente nuova linfa vitale alla propria piattaforma Windows Phone. Per questa ragione, si tura il naso e sopporto tonnellate di Mac, iPhone e iPad nei propri uffici.

La scorsa settimana, racconta il MIT Techonology Review, nel Campus Microsoft di Mountain View avreste assistito ad uno spettacolo davvero inconsueto: decine e decine di sviluppatori armati di portatili Apple, iPad e iPhone sedevano dietro un palco tappezzato di loghi Windows e Microsoft.

Erano l? su invito del padrone di casa, per un meeting fuori dall?ordinario:

?Non era un incontro di ribelli Microsoft: era il tentativo di Microsoft di irretire gli sviluppatori che fino ad oggi hanno creato app per la popolare piattaforma Apple iOS [?] e convincerli a passare a Windows 8 e Windows Phone.? racconta Metz. ?Visto che la maggior parte degli sviluppatori crea app per i gadget e gli smartphone, e per i tablet Android, il gigante del software di Redmond si trova nell?insolita posizione di dover attirare l?attenzione degli sviluppatori.?

? davvero curioso come la storia a volte si ripeta in modo beffardo, ma dopotutto ? una mossa pi? che sensata. Windows Phone Store ha finalmente raggiunto un numero adeguato di applicazioni a catalogo -120.000 per l?esattezza- ma ? ancora terribilmente indietro per risultare appetibile rispetto alla concorrenza. Un traguardo simile Apple l?ha superato ben pi? di tre anni fa, e a giugno dell?anno scorso ? arrivato un record ancora pi? significativo: il superamento delle 100.000 app per iPad. Anzi, nel momento in cui scriviamo l?App Store conta precisamente 764.574 titoli attivi a catalogo. Hai voglia a corteggiarne, di sviluppatori.

Christmas spirit rekindled in Rome thanks to living Nativity scene

YoutubeDecember 29, 2012. (Romereports.com) The star of Bethlehem shone bright atop Rome's Trastevere neighborhood, for a spectacular depicting of a living Nativity scene. More than 100 neighbors, half of them children, in this well known, historic neighborhood dressed up in classical clothes, used nearly 2000 years ago, to relive the joy stemming from the birth of Jesus. ?

The scene included lambs, goats, shepherds, angels and, of course, the Holy Family: Jesus, Mary and Joseph.?

PAULA AZZOLINI?

?I am the mother of St. Joseph. He lives in this area and was chosen because he physically resembles Saint Joseph. He is joined by a beautiful Virgin Mary.??

VIVIANA KASSAN?

Participant

?I am a peasant, and all peasants go and adore Jesus on his manger when he is born.??

During the living Nativity scene, organizers gathered toys, clothes and food for people in need. Hundreds of people, carrying red candles, walked the neighborhood to illuminate and participate in the tradition depiction.?

ULYSSE LE BIHAN AND AMANDA PERRI?

?This scene has been magical, a real surprise. We weren't expecting real animals, there's goats, lambs, chickens; we even saw the camels of the Three Wise Men.??

This is the second year organizers at the living Nativity scene read several passages written by Benedict XVI and Mother Theresa of Calcutta.?

The music also took prominence. This angel-turned violinist played several carols throughout the ceremony.?

Berlusconi criticizes Monti's campaign about-face

ROME (AP) ? Ex-Premier Silvio Berlusconi sharply criticized the decision by Mario Monti to run in Italy's general elections and vowed Saturday to launch a parliamentary inquiry into the 2011 fall of his government and appointment of Monti as Italy's premier.

Berlusconi spoke out after Monti ended weeks of hedging and announced Friday he would head a coalition of centrist forces, businessmen and pro-Vatican forces running for office in Feb. 24-25 elections.

Berlusconi said he never expected Monti would renege on his repeated assurances that he "wouldn't use the public prominence as head of a technical government for an ulterior presence in politics."

He said the decision represented a "loss of credibility" for Monti, a respected economist and former European Commissioner, and said if he is elected premier he would immediately launch a parliamentary inquiry into the fall of his government.

"There was a serious wound to democracy inflicted not just on us but on all Italians," Berlusconi said as he arrived at Milan's train station after a trip from Rome.

Berlusconi's People of Freedom party, beset by local corruption scandals and still tainted by Berlusconi's ill-fated last term, trails significantly in the polls behind the center-left Democratic Party. The Democrats, headed by Pier Luigi Bersani, are expected to win the election with about 30 percent of the vote.

Monti was named by Italy's president to lead a technical government after Berlusconi, hobbled by sex scandals, legal woes and defections from his party, was forced to resign in November 2011 amid Italy's slide into the eurozone's debt crisis.

Berlusconi's party, Parliament's largest, had initially supported Monti's government, backing tax hikes, raises in the retirement age and other unpopular reforms that were deemed necessary to restore Italy's financial credibility.

But earlier this month, Berlusconi yanked his party's support, accusing Monti's government of leading Italy into a "spiral of recession." Monti promptly resigned, forcing elections to be moved up by about two months.

Monti had long said he wouldn't run for office but would be available to serve the country if asked. European leaders, however, made clear they wanted Monti to gun for a second term, and he was wooed by centrist leaders and backed strongly by the Vatican, an important force in Italian politics.

As Monti weighed whether to enter the fray, Berlusconi initially offered an alliance, aware that he could use the votes that a Monti-headed centrist coalition might bring.

But Monti publicly spurned the offer last week and by Saturday Berlusconi was returning the favor. At best, the centrists with Monti leading them are expected to garner no more than about 15 percent of the vote.

Instead, Berlusconi reached out Saturday to his onetime ally, the Northern League, which split with the billionaire media mogul over his initial support for Monti's government. From the start, the euroskeptic League refused to back Monti.

Angelo Alfano, Berlusconi's hand-picked party leader, said the discussions with the League weren't going terribly well. "Discussions with League ongoing. Some important questions, but we're not convinced and they could lead us to separate our path," Alfano tweeted.

Berlusconi noted that the League has more to gain if it joins up with his party.

"I hope we can do it, but it's not necessary because we think we can win even if we go our separate ways," Berlusconi said.

Wanting To Invest In Commercial Real Estate? Here's How ...

Many people have made it big investing in commercial property. However, there is no surefire plan for replicating this success. In addition to putting effort into buying and selling properties, you need to educate yourself about the commercial real estate market. You will become more successful as you gain more experience in the market. Keep reading for tips on how to successfully invest in and manage commercial properties.

If you are considering a commercial real estate investment, think big! If you want to get a building that has five units, you need to know that?s it?s no different to manage than 50. Regardless of the size of the building, you will need commercial financing. However, you will be able to obtain a much better per unit deal on a larger building.

Before you buy commercial real estate, make sure you have a firm vision of your goal for the property. Will you lease the property out or conduct business there yourself? Having specified objectives prior to seeking out a commercial property saves you time and labor, since foresight and vision narrow down your search.

If you desire to rent out commercial real estate, then you need to find solidly yet simply constructed buildings. These types of buildings attract tenants more quickly than other buildings, as prospective tenants know that the building is less likely to have maintenance issues. These buildings also provide much easier maintenance for both the tenants and the owner, as they are less likely to require repairs.

Always go through the disclosures of an agent before hiring him or her. Understand the meaning of dual agency. Dual agency refers to a situation in which a real estate agent represents both the landlord and the tenant in a commercial transaction. In other words, the agency represents the landlord and the tenant simultaneously. You and the other party should both agree if dual agency is to be okay.

Stick with a firm that is looking out for your best interests before you enter into an agreement. If you don?t do this, you could end up with a bad deal and lose more money as time goes on.

Be certain the commercial property you are considering has good utilities access. Your business has utility needs of its own, but you will also need water, electric, sewer and maybe even gas.

When you are looking at a commercial property, be sure to look at the neighborhood, too. Purchasing a property in a neighborhood that is filled with well-to-do potential clients will give you a lot better chance of becoming well-to-do yourself! If your business services will do better in a poor neighborhood, buy property there!

Get a commercial loan approval before looking at commercial property. Get plenty of references to lenders from experienced investors or friends who have invested in real estate before. Before beginning the task of purchasing a property, take time to research the lenders and choose one who will fulfill your needs. If you take time to organize your options now, you can streamline your transaction later on.

You should concentrate your efforts on one real estate endeavor at a time. You need to focus on one type of investment, whether it be offices, apartments, land, retail, etc. Each of these investments will need to be closely monitored and given your full attention. You are better served by mastering one investment than floundering with many.

While success is never guaranteed in any real estate venture, with the right knowledge you can greatly enhance your chances of success when buying and managing commercial properties. Keep in mind the advice given to you in this article, and incorporate them as you see fit in your endeavors. Continue to educate yourself about the industry, and learn about ways to improve. Experience is the key to success.

Canada dollar at 5-week low as U.S. budget talks struggle

TORONTO (Reuters) - The Canadian dollar ended slightly weaker against its U.S. counterpart on Friday as the White House and U.S. lawmakers made a late attempt to avert the "fiscal cliff" and investors choose safe-havens to wait out the negotiations.

World stocks slipped and the U.S. dollar gained as the deadline looms for reaching a budget deal to avert massive tax increases and spending cuts that could drag the U.S. economy, the destination for most Canadian exports, into recession.

President Barack Obama was not planning to make a new offer to avert the tax hikes and spending cuts that loom on January 1 at a White House meeting with congressional leaders on Friday, a source familiar with the meeting said.

At the meeting, Obama was set to ask lawmakers to hold a vote on a plan that would allow taxes to rise on those who earn $250,000 and up, and that would extend unemployment insurance benefits, according to the source.

"We saw some hint of progress on the fiscal cliff negotiations, a mini deal, and for everyone that is a disappointment," said Adam Button, currency analyst at ForexLive in Montreal.

Commodity-linked currencies like the Canadian dollar tend to benefit when U.S. budget negotiations run smoothly, but when there are snags, investor flows go into the highly liquid U.S. dollar.

The Canadian dollar ended the North American session at C$0.9965 versus the U.S. dollar, or $1.0035, weaker than Thursday's North American session close at C$0.9949 versus the U.S. dollar, or $1.0051.

Earlier in the session the Canadian currency hit C$0.9969, its weakest level since November 23, but seemed bound by a tight range approaching parity with the U.S. dollar.

"The Canadian dollar is once again just above parity and in no rush to go anywhere, which is fitting - we end the year very close to parity because that has been the story day after day in 2012," Button said.

He warned, however, that the final trading day of the year on Monday may bring some volatility as investors square positions.

"Historically, this holiday time is very quiet, but we've had very large moves in the yen and euro, so I would rule out nothing on Monday in terms of substantial moves. Desks are thinly staffed but that hasn't kept markets from moving," he said. "And in this kind of environment, you can't look for moves to make sense - you just have to go with momentum."

Canadian government bond prices were higher across the curve on the flight to safety. The two-year bond was up 1 Canadian cent, yielding 1.132 percent, while the benchmark 10-year bond rose 18 Canadian cents to yield 1.774 percent.

Water Library- Restaurant, Wine Room & Cocktail Bar in Bangkok

Masterful combination of innovative fine dining, superlative cocktail program, and formidable wine cellar.

?

The original Water Library Restaurant was established back in 2008, located within central Bangkok?s Chamchuri Square residential and office tower complex. Serving first-class Modern European cuisine and outstanding wines in a stylish, casual-chic environment, Water Library Chamchuri has garnered much acclaim and an enduring popularity with Bangkok?s discerning diners.

Inspired by the success of the first Water Library, the owner embarked on the opening in early 2012 of a second Water Library outlet, in Bangkok?s upscale residential district of Thonglor. Introducing to Bangkok a delightfully ambitious culinary concept not previously attempted, Water Library Thonglor has asserted itself into the upper echelons of fine dining in Bangkok, and consequently, international recognition. The restaurant serves a set 12 course menu of Modern European cuisine focused on the finest seasonal produce, with a creative preparation and presentation. A maximum of 10 guests per evening are seated at a single long bar counter ? behind which the culinary team of 10 chefs headed by Executive Chef Haikal Johari?prepare the dishes and engage directly with the diners- assuring a peerless dining experience.

Water Library Thonglor transcends being solely a fine dining restaurant- as a truly multi-faceted concept it also encompasses a terrific cocktail bar, an intimate wine room with exceptional cellar, and an open-air lounge space for comfortable relaxation and live music on weekends.

Water Library Thonglor is open in the evenings only, Monday to Saturday, with the cocktail bar, lounge and wine room open from 6:30 pm, and the Restaurant dinner service commencing at 7:30 pm. Advance bookings are essential for the Restaurant, and recommended on weekend nights for both the cocktail bar / lounge and wine room.

Mars rover snaps amazing self-portrait

NASA has snapped its most amazing self-portrait yet of the Curiosity rover on Mars, showing the robot posing with its ultimate destination: a huge Martian mountain.

The new view of Curiosity on Mars is actually a mosaic of dozens of high-definition color photos taken by the rover between Oct. 31 and Nov. 1. The image shows Curiosity surrounded by the tracks of its wheels, with the 3-mile-high Mount Sharp rising into the sky in the distance.

NASA featured the latest Curiosity portrait as its image of the day Dec. 27 after releasing the photo earlier this month.

  1. Space news from NBCNews.com

    1. Cassini orbiter captures Saturn's swirling storms

      Science editor Alan Boyle's blog: The storms of Saturn ripple through the frame of a black-and-white close-up captured by the Cassini orbiter on Christmas Eve.

    2. 2013 might be the year for first 'alien Earth'
    3. Mars rover spends holidays at 'Grandma's House'
    4. After setbacks, Russia boosts space spending

The prominent Mount Sharp is the central peak of Curiosity's vast Gale Crater landing site. Another mountain in the image, on the rover's left, makes up the northern wall of the expansive crater.

To create the eye-popping Mars photo, Curiosity used its Mars Hand Lens Imager (MAHLI), a powerful camera mounted at the end of the rover's robotic arm. Curiosity turned the camera on itself much like a human tourist might when traveling alone, snapping a series of photos that rover team members then stitched together into a high-definition composite view.

The rover had to move its robotic arm through more than 50 positions in a single day to capture its entire car-size body on camera. ?NASA scientists used a test version of Curiosity on Earth to practice the Martian photo session.

NASA unveiled an earlier version of Curiosity portrait, composed out of 55 separate images, in early November, but the latest view includes significantly more detail and a wider view.

The Mars rover Curiosity is headed toward a spot near the base of Mount Sharp called Glenelg, and will continue to perform experiments along the way. The $2.5 billion rover's primary mission is to determine if its Gale crater landing site could have ever supported primitive microbial life.
