U.S. spying went too Far , around the World .

U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry says the nation's surveillance activities went "too far" in some cases, and has promised that will not happen again.

Kerry, in Washington, made the comments Thursday by videolink to a conference in London.

Recent media reports that the National Security Agency was monitoring German Chancellor Angela Merkel's phone calls - and those of other allies,  have ignited anger overseas and in Washington.   The reports were based on documents leaked by former NSA contractor Edward Snowden.

The Senate Intelligence committee Thursday approved legislation to tighten controls on what intelligence agencies can do with communications records. It imposes a five-year limit on how long those records can be retained.

The controversy has also made its way to Asia.  Indonesia on Thursday summoned the Australian ambassador in Jakarta following reports indicating that Australia has allowed covert U.S. surveillance programs to operate in its embassies in Indonesia, Thailand, Vietnam, China and East Timor. 

Australian diplomat Greg Moriarty spoke with reporters following the meeting.

"I've just had a meeting with secretary-general," he said.  "From my perspective it was a good meeting and now I have to go and report directly to my government. Thank you."

Indonesia's foreign minister, Marty Natalegawa, had this to say:

"Well, we are obviously deeply concerned and it's something that we cannot accept.  We have sought clarification, we have sought explanation, both from Australia side as well as the United States government on the reported facilities at their embassies in Jakarta," said Marty Natalegawa.

Media reports said also said that the U.S. Embassy in Jakarta was used for spying on its president, Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono, and other Indonesian leaders.  They indicate the U.S. embassy houses wiretapping equipment that has been used to monitor other Indonesian leaders.  The documents describe the facilities as carefully concealed within embassy compounds.

The Indonesian Foreign Ministry has summoned America's top diplomat in Jakarta to clarify allegations reported Thursday that the U.S. embassy in Jakarta may have been used to spy on President Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono.

On Wednesday, Internet search engines Google and Yahoo expressed dismay over reports the U.S. National Security Agency secretly broke into their communication networks.

In a statement, Google said it is "outraged" at the lengths to which the U.S. government seems to have gone to intercept data from Google's private networks, and said these reports underscore the need for urgent reform. Both Google and Yahoo said they have not authorized the alleged tapping of their communication links.

The new allegations of NSA activity follow a series of recent media revelations of U.S. surveillance activities targeting international leaders and institutions.

The United Nations says it has received assurances from the U.S. government that U.N. communications networks "are not and will not be monitored'' by American intelligence agencies.

But chief U.N. spokesman Martin Nesirky would not comment Wednesday about whether the world body had been monitored in the past, as reported recently by the German magazine Der Spiegel.

Nesirky said the United Nations contacted the United States about reports that the U.S. National Security Agency had cracked the U.N. communications encryption system.

Earlier, members of a European Union Parliament delegation, visiting Washington to discuss the spying issue, said they will look into a claim by the NSA director that European countries helped it collect phone records in Europe.

German European Parliament member Elmar Brok told reporters the loss of trust between Europe and the United States is dramatic and may not be repaired for years.

The EU delegation visit coincided with the latest in a series of news reports based on leaked NSA files, this one alleging U.S. agents hacked into cables used by Google and Yahoo.

A report published Wednesday by The Washington Post said the NSA secretly broke into communication networks used by the Internet giants to move data around the world.

The newspaper said it learned of the classified program from documents leaked by former NSA contractor Edward Snowden and from interviews with "knowledgeable officials."

The report said the NSA and its British counterpart run a project that taps into fiber-optic cables carrying data between global facilities of Google and Yahoo.  The project allows the spy agencies to copy entire data flows, including the content of text, audio and video files.

Google and Yahoo issued statements saying they have not authorized tapping of their communication links.

NSA chief General Keith Alexander said the spy agency does not enter Google and Yahoo servers and only gains access to data by "court order."

President Barack Obama's spy chiefs are on the defensive over the recent news reports, which have angered America's allies and exposed the scale of NSA snooping on telephone calls and Internet traffic.

Alexander has repeatedly said all countries spy on one another, and the allies should discuss a new working relationship.

Dangers of Cottonseed OilEven though cottonseed oil is a popular alternative for cooking as this oil does not turn rancid due to ts long shelf life, it also has some drawbacks. It is mildly inflammatory in nature and also has some components which may prove harmful to health.

Natural Toxin
According to many nutritionists, cottonseed contains some natural toxins. One such naturally occurring toxin present in the cottonseed is gossypol. This toxin is produced in the seeds and which helps the plant against the infestation of insects. This toxin is used as a component in male contraceptives in China. It can cause a series of reactions in men who suffer from a deficiency of potassium. Gossypol tends to decrease the motility of the sperms and interferes with spermatogenesis. This condition can prove detrimental to men's fertility. The presence of gossypol in the body tends to interfere with the metabolism of potassium and can be a causative factor for paralysis among men who have a low intake of potassium in their diet.

Fat Profile
Another danger is that it has a high content of saturated fats. Cottonseed oil also contains very low levels of monounsaturated fats and heart healthy omega 3 fatty acids. These saturated fats tend to increase the levels of low density lipoproteins (LDL) or bad cholesterol in the body. Continuous use can lead to many cardiovascular diseases like blockage of arteries (atherosclerosis), heart attacks and angina etc. Cottonseed also contains more than fifty percent of omega 6 fatty acids which may lead to the deficiency of omega 3 essential fatty acids. The oil undergoes the process of hydrogenation which creates trans fats, which can raise the levels of serum cholesterol.

Allergic Reactions
Since there is a similarity in the molecular structures of the composition of cottonseed and peanut oil, people who are allergic to gluten or peanuts also suffer from the same allergic reactions after consuming cottonseed oil. Rashes, itching or burning sensation and swelling can be triggered due to an allergy. In extreme cases, the individual may experience breathlessness, scratchy throat and heavy chest.

Genetic Modification
In order to extract oil from cottonseed, these seeds have to be modified genetically. The cotton plants are crossbred with super weeds that are a wild species of weeds. This crossbreed of cotton plants is resistant to infestation of weevils and other insects. These plants also require dangerous herbicides that may be hazardous for human consumption. These herbicides reverse the effect of antibiotics and make diseases like tuberculosis and sexually transmitted diseases like gonorrhea difficult to treat.

Pesticides
Since cotton is not a food crop, many harmful pesticides are sprayed to protect the crop. These pesticides are composed of harmful toxins like cyanide, propargite, dicofol, trifluralin and naled which are carcinogenic in nature. These pesticides seep into the cotton seeds and when oil is extracted from these seeds some amount of toxins gets mixed. Using such an oil for consumption can trigger the development of cancerous cells and make an individual more prone to different types of cancer.

Prosecutors  to   launch  petition  against   Lawmakers'   Pressure   .
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ 
( 21.10.2013.)  From  China  Post  :


The Prosecutors Association, Republic of China (Taiwan) said in a statement that it opposed lawmakers' calls for prosecutors to answer questions at the Legislature, criticizing such requests as unconstitutional.  Citing three constitution interpretations by the Constitutional Court, the association of active and retired prosecutors said lawmakers' powers to investigate and question officials do not give them the right to interfere in ongoing individual cases. Under the Constitution, prosecutors are protected from outside interference when exercising their duties, it said. The statement came after Justice Minister Luo Ying-shay was criticized by lawmakers for defending two prosecutors who did not appear before the Legislature's Judiciary and Organic Laws and Statutes Committee on Oct. 17. The committee meeting was held to hear a report on an investigation into the wiretapping of one of the legislature's main telephone lines. In addition to calling the lawmakers' demand for prosecutors to attend legislative hearings unconstitutional, the prosecutors association said it opposes any attempt by lawmakers to manipulate and hijack prosecutorial agencies and compromise the independence and impartiality of prosecutors.

      According   to  the   International  Law  ,  taiwan  is  neither  a   sovereign   state  nor  independent   courtry  .

     The   Legislative  Yuan   of  Taiwan  is   one   of   the  most  ugly  parliament   in   the   world  which  is  without  responsible  person  for   the  poor   performance  or   dishonest   mannered  legislators  .
 Kinds   of    No   Confidence  motion  +++++++++++++++++++++++

A motion of no confidence is primarily a statement or vote which states that a person in a superior position - be it government, managerial, etc. - is no longer deemed fit to hold that position. This may be based on said person falling short in some respect, failing to carry out obligations, or making choices that other members feel are detrimental.
In law, a motion of no confidence (alternatively vote of no confidence, censure motion, no-confidence motion, or (unsuccessful) confidence motion) is a parliamentary motion which when passed would demonstrate to the head of state that the elected parliament no longer has confidence in (one or more members of) the appointed government.
A censure motion is different from a no-confidence motion. "No Confidence" leads to compulsory resignation of the council of ministers whereas "Censure" is meant to show disapproval and does not result in the resignation of ministers. The censure motion can be against an individual minister or a group of ministers, but the no-confidence motion is directed against the entire council of ministers. Censure motions need to state the reasons for the motion while no-confidence motions do not require reasons to be specified.
Sometimes, the government will choose to declare that one of its bills is a "motion of confidence". This may be used to prevent dissident members of parliament from voting against it.
In the Westminster system, the defeat of a supply bill (one that concerns the spending of money) automatically requires the resignation of the government or dissolution of Parliament, much like a non-confidence vote^{[citation needed]}, since a government that cannot spend money is hamstrung. This is called loss of supply.
When the upper house of a Westminster system country has the right to refuse supply, such as in Australia during the events of 1975, the convention is in a grey area as Westminster governments are not normally expected to maintain the confidence of the upper house.

++++++++++++++++++++

One analyst, University of Michigan business professor Erik Gordon, said he thinks both Obama and his Republican opponents will have to compromise on their policy goals if a default is to be avoided.

"I think at the last minute there will be some compromise, because neither side can afford to be seen by the public as being intransigent," he said. "So the Republicans will have to give up and say, 'Okay, we'll settle for fewer tax cuts than we asked for.' And the president is going to have to say, 'I'm going to make some bigger reductions [in spending] than I said I would make,' because neither side can afford to have the blame pinned on them. They will move together and learn to live with each other one more time."

Debt ceiling reached again[edit]

On May 19, the debt ceiling was reinstated at just under $16.7 trillion to reflect borrowing during the suspension period. As there was no provision made for continuing commitments, Treasury began applying extraordinary measures once again. Despite earlier estimates of late July, Treasury announced that default would not happen "until sometime after Labor Day". Other organizations, including the Congressional Budget Office (CBO), projected exhaustion of the extraordinary measures in October or possibly November.^[16] On August 26, 2013, Treasury informed Congress that if the debt ceiling was not raised in time, the United States would be forced to default on its debt sometime in mid-October. On September 25, Treasury announced that extraordinary measures would be exhausted no later than October 17, leaving Treasury with about $30 billion in cash, plus incoming revenue, but no ability to borrow money. The CBO has estimated that the exact date on which Treasury will have to begin prioritizing/delaying bills and/or actually defaulting on some obligations will fall between October 22 and October 31.

Negotiations[edit]

In late May, President Obama submitted his initial list of conditions for raising the debt ceiling to Congress: no conditions at all. He claimed willingness to discuss deficit reduction but asserted a desire for a debt ceiling increase without conditions before such a discussion began.
House Republicans responded in early July by providing the President with a list of possible deals which would allow agreement on a debt ceiling increase:^[17]

• Long term debt ceiling increase (allowing Treasury to borrow for the rest of Obama's term): privatize Medicare and/or social security.
• Medium term debt ceiling increase (allowing Treasury to borrow until sometime in 2015): cut food stamps, tinker with chained CPI, tax reform, agree to enact block-grant Medicaid or a large raise in the retirement age.
• Short term debt ceiling increase (postponing default until sometime in the first half of 2014): means testing of social security, a small raise in the retirement age or ending agricultural subsidies.

To date, Obama has largely ignored this list, and his administration, along with the Senate, have stated they intend to wait, in the hope that the house will finally agree to approve a 'clean' debt ceiling increase.
More recently, in September 2013^[18] the House of Representatives has begun drafting a bill that will postpone default for approximately twelve months from its passage, but the bill is not expected to be passed by the Senate due to provisions within it that call for a one-year delay of all provisions within the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, a requirement for both houses of Congress to vote on tax reform plans by the end of 2013, and construction of the Keystone XL Pipeline.
With no agreement between the two Houses of Congress and the President on the 2014 budget, the US Government has had to go into partial shutdown on October 1, 2013, with about 800,000 federal employees being put on temporary leave.^[19]
