Why Do I Have Pain In Both Hips

BY OFFICIAL DOCUMENTS OF THE USA mistreated prisoners to death

STEPHEN C. WEBSTER

of The American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) released passages that were hitherto secret a government report on harsh interrogation techniques used in Iraq, Afghanistan and Guantánamo.

These pages on which they had never been given information, detailing the repeated use of abusive conduct that led to the deaths of prisoners.

Documents obtained by the ACLU through a request based on the Freedom of Information Act - FOIA - contain a report by Vice Admiral Albert T. Church, who was involved in the creation of a comprehensive study of the operations of the Department of Defense interrogation.

Church defines the interrogation took place in the Bagram Air Base in Afghanistan as "clearly illegal, and clearly not in keeping with any policy or education approved for the interrogation."

The publication of the ACLU has appeared on the same day it was made also known as a significant group of documents - with the FOIA - by the three major human rights groups, documents reveal that the Pentagon has directed the secret prisons in Bagram and Iraq, which has cooperated with the program of "ghost detentions CIA "and that the staff of the defense has delayed the release of a prisoner to avoid bad publicity.

In the latter two cases, for example, the prisoners were handcuffed to set objects on top of their heads to keep them awake, "says the document in question was also used physical violence, with kicks, blows and use of" rounds of submission "that go to the legs of the prisoners, given with the knees of those questions.

traumatic injuries to the legs had to do with the deaths.

In one case, a pulmonary embolus was formed as a result of traumatic injury to a violent event in the atrium and the coronary disease was complicated by traumatic injury.

In a press release summarizing the ACLU documents with details: "An investigation into two deaths at Bagram has determined that the two detainees died from pulmonary embolism caused by standing in chains, deprived of sleep and beaten dozens times by the guards and maybe even by those who led interrogations. "

also reveals the use of torture in Guantanamo illegal bases and prisons the United States in Afghanistan and Kabul.

"An investigation of a murder and involuntary murder of Dilar Dabab held by U.S. forces in Iraq in 2003 - This is an investigation began after allegations of an Iraqi prisoner subjected to torture and abuse in The Disco (located in the complex of the Special Operations Forces, in the airport in Mosul, Iraq) -

abuse was to freeze his suit and let stand for long periods in front of an air conditioner and make him Drinking water until vomiting or drowning, beating his head against a steel plate hot hooded and then question him, forcing many times to lift her legs which were tied bags of ice and kicking when it anymore.

"An investigation established probable cause to believe that U.S. forces have committed a murder at the close of 2003 when they participated in a sleeping bag held Abed Mowhoush during an interrogation, causing his death by asphyxiation .

"A large part of the torture, mutilation and murder of prisoners took place for the orders given by the rules of the secret Pentagon, wrote Scott Horton, assistant editor of Harper's magazine.

"Most of it has passed through the deputy secretary of defense for intelligence, intelligence, Stephen Cambone, a character who had escaped attention so far in the scandal of torture and that is now the vice president for Strategy QinetiQ North America, a subsidiary of defense contractor based in the UK, QinetiQ.

Even the analysis of the Senate Armed Services Committee fails to reach the bottom of the work of Dr. Cambone and his "rules comparison "(ROE) for the unit of special operations, which controlled, death, disgrace and torture prisoners in upon themselves.

This is one of many reasons why an investigation is urgently needed with comprehensive order of appearance, but the spread of complete internal investigations already conducted by the Department of Defense is the next essential step (from Rebelión / Translated by Granma International)

Antikythera - was the oldest, but not any more!


In 2006, this fragment was found off the coast of Olbia by the Superintendence for Archaeological Heritage for the Province of Sassari and Nuoro.

But because this fragment is likely to open a case so blatantly threatening to open a new view on the scientific thought of antiquity?

Dr. Rubens Doriano under whose direction the excavation took place, assured that the construction of the building dates from the late 3rd century BC, just when Hellenism was at its peak.

By this date, therefore, is the most ancient history of the gear. This is a fragment of a bronze gear wheel 43 mm in diameter with 55 teeth originally entire circle.

Given the small size of the find from the start it was considered to be part with a system very similar to that found in the waters of the island of Antikythera, but dates back to the first century BC.

Because of the abundant presence of oxide on the surface, the teeth appeared just sketched, and the signs that they had a triangular profile as those of the astronomical calculations of Antikythera, National Archaeological Museum of Athens, or the Byzantine astrolabe Built eight centuries after the Antikythera calculator and stored at the London Science Museum.

But to the astonishment of the restoration has emerged that the profile of gear teeth is triangular, like that of the mechanisms implemented in the following centuries, but curved, so that seem remarkably similar to that of modern gear teeth.

Perfection, gear, games without excessive interference, can be reached in modern gears whose wedge-shaped profile is the result of careful and deep mathematical studies made in modern times.

triangular teeth of gears such as the Antikythera Calculator Byzantine astrolabe and, instead, allow the meshing of course, but are roughly the excessive play between the teeth

From a careful study of the computer was reconstructed profile of the ring gear of the finding that the measurements was almost identical to the profile of the gears modern, while the differences are very pronounced size gears with triangular profile. The finding of Olbia

also has a broken tooth fracture starting at the half height, irrefutable proof that the gear was part of a mechanism that worked.

Far from saying that nature is an artifact of the Greek finding it indicates an extraordinary precision construction, although it is done manually with very little "technology" at the time about the lack of special equipment, machine tools and measuring instruments, indispensable for a correct metalworkers.

Although small, the finding Olbia is of great archaeological and scientific value, and it is very important test of the greatness of Hellenistic scientific thought, which confirms what many think, but you can not prove easy for the absence of findings, and especially of texts.



* * * Many other such devices have been produced and are gone, perhaps forever, lost because they were not properly understood by professionals, most often interested in statues or more immediate and meaningful grip on public.

fact, if a group of sponge divers had not stumbled across the wreck of the ship about a century ago, two thousand years after the sinking of the Calculator Antikythera, the same would still be under the sea to disintegrate for corrosion, and if, once rescued, the mechanism had not "found" an archaeologist who, among other things was also a physicist, De Solla Price, would be yet forgotten in a closet in the museum in Athens. So even if a prudent and experienced archaeologist, as Rubens D'Oriano, had not given the proper value to a battered and seemingly insignificant piece of bronze, we could not know what this study has revealed.

full study was presented at the XVIII International Congress of studies on "Roman Africa", organized by the University of Sassari was held in Olbia 11 14 December 2008.
