The news that two high school football players in Steubenville, Ohio, were found guilty of raping an intoxicated 16-year-old girl lit up Twitter on Sunday, with many users—most of them women—celebrating the verdict while calling for more work to be done to transform America's rape culture.

GUILTY verdict in #Steubenville! Let's hope this serves as a lesson nationally—only yes means yes.

These young men have forced a young woman to relearn trust, dignity, self worth and sexuality. And demonized her afterwards.

Full justice will not be realized for survivors until we stop blaming victims and destroy the culture that feeds this. #Steubenville

There are a lot of tears in the courtroom. Wonder where the tears were for the victim that night? #Steubenville

When I was in college guys used to joke "passed out equals consent" and it made my stomach turn. So glad for the Steubenville verdict.

Steubenville young men were found guilty ... But it still doesn't fix the problem of society devaluing women.

The verdict came a day after the victim testified she did not remember anything from the night of the attack, but was "embarrassed and scared" to learn what happened to her via text messages from witnesses, Instagram photos and a YouTube video.

#Steubenville rape case had more undeniably damning evidence than many other high profile cases--texts, tweets, photos. Hard to ignore.

— Irin Carmon (@irincarmon) March 17, 2013

#Steubenville case looked at "10s of 1000s of texts found on 17 phones seized." May texting do away with he-said-she-said trials forever.

Steubenville community leaders would have covered up this abuse as they had before, but bloggers and Anons shined a light on it. Well done.

— Random Pinko (@anon_pinko) March 17, 2013

The case "drew wide attention for the way social media spurred the initial prosecution," the New York Times said, "and later helped galvanize national outrage"—outrage that was evident to anyone scanning tweets with the #Steubenville hashtag on Sunday.

Going to have stop commenting on #steubenville case now, as every time I think about it, I cry. I have so much respect/love for the victim.

You will not reduce, redefine, diminish, or take away from what you did. And what you did was rape her. #Steubenville

Too much sympathy in court being shown for these disgusting little rapists. It is not a tragedy when a rapist is found guilty.#Steubenville

"She Never said no" is such a hideous defense, and one of the many sad examples of how much work needs to be done. #Steubenville

So many feelings as a survivor of intoxicated, teenage rape about Steubenville. The howling for blood makes me really sad.

Don't feel sorry rapists: Stop airing the men crying. Those were adult actions, they should've been tried as adults. #Steubenville #stopVAW

The five-day trial put a spotlight on the football culture surrounding Steubenville High School, a point of pride for a city hard hit by the collapse of the steel industry.

The community of #Steubenville should now do some soul-searching about how they treat their boys like gods. It won't.

Central Africa Republic rebels issue ultimatum, detain ministers

By Paul Marin Ngoupana

BANGUI (Reuters) - Rebels in the Central African Republic have detained their five ministers in the government and threatened to break a January ceasefire unless prisoners are freed and other demands met.

The insurgents came close to capturing the capital Bangui and overthrowing President Francois Bozize late last year before accepting the peace deal in January under which some of their leaders joined the central government.

But increasingly bitter rhetoric from both sides is threatening to pitch the mineral-rich but impoverished, landlocked country back into conflict.

In a sign of growing tension, the Seleka rebel military command detained five ministers from its side on Sunday, preventing them from returning to the capital after talks with U.N., African Union and European Union officials.

The insurgents have demanded the release of political prisoners and the departure of about 400 South African troops who were sent in to prop up Bozize's army.

"We are giving Bozize and those around him 72 hours to meet our principal demands, otherwise we will resume hostilities," Seleka's spokesman, Colonel Sylvain Bordas, said after a meeting with the international officials in the town of Sibut on Sunday.

"In the meantime, all our ministers in the government will stay here with us. The rest of the delegation may go back to Bangui," he said.

One of the ministers told French RFI radio on Monday that the military command was detaining them as a means to force Bozize to accept their demands immediately.

The insurgents have also called for the incorporation of 2,000 men from their group into the national army and the recognition of their military ranks.

The government of the Central African Republic was not immediately available for comment.

Chad, Gabon, Cameroon, Republic of Congo and South Africa have deployed hundreds of troops to shore up Bozize's army after it suffered a string of defeats, allowing the rebels to advance to within 75 km (45 miles) of Bangui.

The five ministers were being kept at a rebel camp in Sibut, about 185 km (115 miles) from the capital where they discussed with diplomats how to defuse the latest crisis.

The United States said on Sunday it was concerned about worsening security in Central African Republic, urging all sides to implement the ceasefire deal.

Insurgents seized two eastern towns last week, threatening to resume their insurgency if their demands were disregarded.

They previously insisted that Bozize's resignation was a precondition for peace and that the president, who seized power in a Chadian-backed 2003 coup, should stand trial at the International Criminal Court.

Central African Republic, a former French colony, remains among the least developed in the world despite rich deposits of gold, diamonds and uranium.

Minnesota woman loses music downloading appeal

Minnesota woman loses music downloading appeal

WASHINGTON (AP) — The Supreme Court has turned away an appeal from a Minnesota woman who has been ordered to pay record companies $222,000 for the unauthorized downloading of copyrighted music.

The justices did not comment Monday in letting stand the judgment against Jammie Thomas-Rasset of Brainerd, Minn. She claimed in court papers that the ordered payment was excessive.

The music industry filed thousands of lawsuits against people it accused of downloading music without permission and without paying for it. Almost all the cases settled for $3,500.

Lawyer Kiwi Camara said Thomas-Rasset is one of only two defendants whose case went to trial. The other is former Boston University student Joel Tenenbaum, who also lost and was ordered to pay $675,000.

The case is Thomas-Rasset v. Capitol Records, 12-715.

r4ds ＷＢＣ日本代表、犠牲者悼んで黙とう 私たちの戦いぶりが少しでも力になれば… どうぶつナビ

＜東日本大震災２年＞喜ぶんでねえか／住民に絆できた（その１）　３人眠る墓地一帯、花畑にいとおしい家族、親しい友人、大切な仲間……。かけがえのない人たちを失ってから２年がたった,マジコン 通販 ミュンヘンのアウディトレーニングセンターに S5 エクスクルーシブ［写真蔵］。１１年３月１１日午後２時４６分に発生した東日本大震災。犠牲者を悼み、被災地だけでなく全国各地で祈りがささげられた。多くの人が、悲しみや悔しさに向き合うとともに、「これからも生きていくよ」と約束した。

　◇３人眠る墓地一帯、花畑に－－妻と孫２人失った、宮城・石巻の佐藤富士夫さん（６４）

　灰色の小鳥が１羽、妻と孫２人が眠る墓の前に舞い降りた。１１日の寒い朝、宮城県石巻市北上町十三浜の農業、佐藤富士夫さん（６４）は、津波で流された自宅近くの墓地で花の苗を植えていた。「きょうはいろんな人が拝んでけれっからな」。３人に話しかけた。

　２年前、佐藤さんは自宅の庭先で揺れに襲われた。妻成子（せいこ）さん（当時５８歳）は、一緒に暮らす吉浜小１年の孫娘杏慈（あんじ）ちゃん（同７歳）がいつも宿題をしながら迎えを待つ同小隣の市北上総合支所へ行ったようだった。杏慈ちゃんの兄で同小４年の帆高（ほだか）君（同１０歳）もそこへ逃げたはずだ。震災の５年前に新設された２階建ての支所は市の指定避難所。「あそこなら安全だ」。佐藤さんは両親と高台のトンネルに逃げた。

　夜明けを待って３人を迎えに行き、目を疑った。支所は全壊していた。泣きながら３人の名を呼んで捜し歩いた。駐車場に杏慈ちゃんの小さな亡きがらが大人たちの遺体と一緒に並べられていた。帆高君と成子さんとは、１～２週間後に遺体安置所で対面した。

　支所では逃げ込んだ住民と市職員の計５４人が死亡・行方不明となった。「あんな情けねえことなかった。『津波が来ても大丈夫だ』って、ずっと家族に言ってたんだ」

　初盆を前に、がれきの下に倒れていた先祖代々の墓石を元に戻し、３人の納骨をした。墓の周りは津波をかぶって荒れていた。１１年１１月、佐藤さんは周りに菜の花の種をまくことにした。「仏さんへの償いっていうのかなあ。お墓の周りを花でいっぱいにしてやりてえと思ったんだ」

　両親が東京の弟に引き取られるなどして、佐藤さんは三男公彦さん（３０）と２人で仮設住宅に暮らす。農協理事に加え、仮設住宅の自治会長、市のまちづくり委員長も引き受け、忙しい。だがスーパーで一人、梅干しや納豆を買っていると、料理上手だった妻をふと思い出す。小中学生を見れば孫たちの成長した姿を想像した。「日がたてばたつほど思い出して。段々悲しくなってくるんだ」

　墓前に毎日通った。声がよく届くように墓石に額をつけて「来たよ」と大声で呼んだ。３人が眠るそばで種をまくと、ざわつく心が静まる気がした。いつしか種をまいた範囲は約５００平方メートルの広さになった。河原から石を運んで道を作り、昨年末には黄や紫のパンジーを植えて３人の名を花文字で描いた。

　最近、３人が自分を「生かしてくれたのかな」と思う。３人の無事をあれほど信じ切れなかったら、自分は必死で逃げなかっただろう。花を育て、そばで３人を見守ることが、これからの自分の務めだと思えてきた。

　今月、チューリップとユリの球根を植えた。コスモスの種もまこう,moncler ベスト 今後も継続していく」と強調した。いつか色とりどりの花で墓地一帯を埋めるのが佐藤さんの夢だ。「花がいっぱい咲いて、鳥っこがいっぱい来たら美しいべ。３人も喜ぶんでねえかな」

　もうすぐ花が一面に咲き、３人を優しく包んでくれるだろう。春が待ち遠しい。【林奈緒美】【関連記事】 東日本大震災２年：喜ぶんでねえか／住民に絆できた（その１）　３人眠る墓地一帯、花畑に インサイド：逆境を越えて　被災地のスポーツ再生／１ 東日本大震災２年：ＷＢＣ日本代表、犠牲者悼んで黙とう　私たちの戦いぶりが少しでも力になれば… どうぶつナビ：福島で離れ離れになったペットたちは 時代を駆ける：東日本大震災２年　武内宏之／１　手書き新聞の精神、今も

日銀人事、２８日正式提示　民主抜きでも同意成立の可能性政府は２８日、次期日銀総裁に黒田東彦（はるひこ）アジア開発銀行総裁、副総裁に中曽（なかそ）宏日銀理事、岩田規久男（きくお）学習院大教授をあてる人事案を衆参両院に正式に提示する,なお、MSIはCeBIT 2013にあわせて、同社の新しいゲーミングマザーボードを公開。この人事案が国会で同意されるか否かは、与党が過半数に達していない参院の判断が焦点となるが、ここにきて参院第一会派の民主党が反対に回っても、同意される可能性が出てきた。（原川貴郎）　政府・与党は３月１５日に参院で同意人事案の採決を行うことを想定している。参院は与野党の勢力が伯仲しており、賛否は微妙な情勢だが、モデルケースになるとみられるのが２６日の平成２４年度補正予算案の参院採決だ。　「私にとっては、とんだプレゼントだった…」　補正予算が成立した２６日に６４歳の誕生日を迎えた民主党の海江田万里代表は２７日、名古屋市内の講演で、悔しさをにじませた,r4i 3ds 2012年6月30日。　衆参の多数派が異なる「ねじれ国会」は野党に転落した民主党にとって、国会闘争上、唯一といってもいい武器だった。しかし、補正予算案は民主党の反対にもかかわらず、参院でも１票差で可決された。　民主党にとって最悪のシナリオは、前半国会最大のヤマ場となる日銀人事案の採決でも、このパターンが再現され、野党第一党としての存在感を発揮できないまま終わることだ。　すでにその兆候はある。野党ながら補正に賛成した日本維新の会の国会議員団は日銀人事案にも容認論が大勢。新党改革の舛添要一代表も２７日の記者会見で「バランスのとれた一定の評価ができる人事だ」と賛成する方針を表明した。　民主党内にも黒田氏起用に容認論が広がっており、その場合はすんなりと人事案が認められるが、「抵抗野党」戦術にこだわる輿石東参院議員会長の鶴の一声で反対に回る可能性は捨てきれない。　その場合、俄然（がぜん）注目されるのが、党議拘束がないみどりの風に所属する５人の参院議員の動向だ。行田邦子氏は補正予算の採決時と同様、入党を検討しているみんなと歩調を合わせ同意しない公算が大きいが、補正に賛成票を投じた他の４人の判断は不透明だ。　谷岡郁子代表は「完璧にフリーパスとはならない。党内でかなりの議論になるだろう」と語る。仮に４人が同意に回れば、民主党抜きの日銀人事案同意が現実味を帯びることになる。

社団法人・全日本コーヒー協会専務理事の西野豊秀氏が話す

ネスレ日本の高級マシンが人気　コーヒー戦争は専門店VS家庭1杯100円～200円と低価格ながら本格的な味が評判の「いれたてコーヒー」。ファストフード店やコンビニエンスストアがこぞって導入したせいか、食後のお茶ではなくコーヒーの文化がますます浸透してきた感がある。　社団法人・全日本コーヒー協会専務理事の西野豊秀氏が話す。「コーヒーの消費量は早くも昭和50年半ばに緑茶を上回り、その後も増加しています。パンやスパゲッティーなど、思わずコーヒーが飲みたくなる『食生活の洋風化』がなければここまで需要は伸びなかったと思います」　同協会調べの『コーヒーの需要動向に関する基本調査』（2010年）によれば、1人が1週間に飲むコーヒーは、インスタントが4.69杯、レギュラーコーヒーで3.27杯という結果が出ている。だが、意外にも喫茶店やコーヒーショップ、ファストフード店などを飲用場所に挙げる人は少なく、家庭や職場で飲まれる割合が圧倒的に高かった,「権力によって挫折や失望を味わった人、あるいは大自然のエネルギーによってかけがえのない家族を失った人たちに、私は少しでもお役に立ちたいし、貢献したい」と力強く話した。「カプチーノやカフェラテ、エスプレッソといった専門店顔負けのコーヒーを、ボタンを押すだけで1杯ずつ抽出してくれるコーヒーメーカーが次々と発売されているからです。マシン自体は1万～2万円の初期投資が必要ですが、1杯あたりのコーヒー代は20円前後と毎日飲む人にとっては経済的です」（フードアナリストの白根智彦氏）　例えば、2009年にネスレ日本から発売されて100万台以上売れている「バリスタ」は、詰め替え用のインスタントコーヒーをマシンにセットして抽出するタイプ。本体を8000円前後で購入すれば、ブラックコーヒーは14円、カプチーノを作っても24円で泡立つコーヒーがいつでも楽しめる。　だが、同社の数あるコーヒー専用機器の売り上げを支えているのは、なにも低価格帯ばかりとは限らない。　三越銀座店をはじめ、全国に18店ある「ネスプレッソブティック」を訪れると、その名の通りブティックのような高級感漂う店内に2万円台後半のマシンもずらりと並ぶ。それらの機器に挿入するのは、1杯分のコーヒー豆が入った専用のカプセル。定番だけで10種類以上のカプセルの中から産地や味の濃さが選べ、まさにコーヒー通にはたまらない。「一般的なコーヒーメーカーより高価ですし、カプセル入りのエスプレッソは1杯あたり80円と決して安くはありませんが、味や香りは格別です。毎日、外に出ればスタバやタリーズといったシアトル系カフェのLサイズを飲み、家でも条件反射的に飲んでいる“コーヒー中毒”の私にとって、もはやインスタントコーヒーは飲めません」（40代・ネスプレッソシリーズの愛用者）　こうしてハイクオリティーのコーヒーが身近になった分、消費量だけでなく消費価格も上がっていると分析するのは、前出の白根氏だ。「コーヒーは飲み方の選択肢が広がり、ワインのように味や好みをじっくりと選んで楽しむ時代になりました。水やお茶はまだ無料というイメージもありますが、コーヒーはしっかりお金を払ってでも深煎りで価値を確かめたいという“こだわり派”が増えました」　全日本コーヒー協会の西野氏は、コーヒー文化が根付く条件として、「都市化」と「所得の向上」を挙げる。「都市化すれば喫茶店ができ、次第に本格的な味を家に持ち帰るようになり市場全体が伸びていく,高い１万２４３３円６０銭で取引が始まった。いわばコーヒーを嗜むのは一種のステータス。そう考えると、日本のコーヒー文化も成熟期に入ったのかもしれませんね」“違いの分かる”愛飲者の増加により、コーヒー市場はさらに底上げされそうだ。

Miami real estate revival a boon for Latin American developersRelated Content prevnext

Jose Luis Melo (L) and sons Carlos…

MIAMI (Reuters) - Argentine developer Jose Luis Melo watched as Miami's real estate market reeled from the U.S. housing crash and thousands of the city's condominiums sat unsold -- and decided it was time to build.

It was late 2010 and Melo, who runs the Melo Group real estate company with his two sons, bought a $1.4 million parcel of land near downtown Miami.

Months later, the Melos lifted the first construction crane in the city's post-housing bubble era, betting they could find buyers for condos in a new 17-story tower.

"People told us 'You guys are crazy. The market is awash in units and you are going to build?'" he said, adding that he preferred to sell his own new building. The building's 98 condominiums sold out in just five months.

The condos were snapped up by cash-rich Latin Americans who have flocked to Miami real estate, helping to spur an unexpected rebound in a market that only three years ago stood as a poster child of America's housing bust. The buying highlights the role investors have played in some major U.S. cities showing strong signs of a revival after the crash.

Wealthy Latin Americans have long invested in south Florida property, but this time the resurgence in Miami is getting an extra lift from South American developers like Melo.

Increasingly developers from Argentina, Brazil, Mexico and Venezuela are getting into the act to meet demand from Latin Americans looking for a stable place to park their money and to make extra income through rentals.

"I've never seen them with the kind of clout they are carrying right now in construction and development," said Peter Zalewski, principal of real estate consultancy Condo Vultures. "It really is a coming of age period."

Buoyed by rising property prices and increasing sales, the real estate industry in South Florida is abuzz over more than 80 announced plans for new residential projects, and Latin American developers are involved in nearly one-third of them, according to Zalewski.

The developers are capitalizing on Latin Americans' long held view of Miami real estate as a safe haven against political and economic volatility at home. The Latin-flavored city, where Spanish is widely spoken,r4i 3ds, is a popular shopping destination and vacation playground.

Recent currency devaluations in Argentina, Brazil and Venezuela and fears that currencies in those countries may continue to weaken are driving the property buying, brokers say.

In 2012, Venezuelans worried about an inflation-wracked economy, soaring crime and political uncertainty at home, led all foreign buyers in Miami for a third straight year, accounting for 15 percent all sales. They were followed by Argentines and Brazilians.

A sharp increase in real estate prices in Latin America has also made Miami property more attractive. According to the real estate website Zillow, Miami property values are nearly 50 percent off their 2006 peak.

The increased presence of Latin American developers also reflects how their region has benefited from a healthy stretch of economic growth and has given them an unprecedented opportunity to look beyond their own borders to build.

"Before, we were more isolated and looking inward. Now we've started to think more globally," said Eduardo Constantini, head of Consultatio, a major Argentine real estate developer and financial firm.

Like many other developers, Consultatio saw opportunity in Miami's housing downturn and took advantage of a sharp drop in prices to pick up one of two sites it is now developing.

The group paid $80 million in 2009 for a waterfront site in Key Biscayne, one of Miami's most exclusive areas, where construction is well underway on a luxury, 154-unit condominium twin-tower with prices that start at more than a $1 million.

Consultatio bought another piece of prime beachfront property last year for $220 million in Miami Beach's tony Bal Harbour neighborhood in one of south Florida's biggest Miami land sale deals in 2012.

Other companies, lured by fire-sale prices in Miami's slump, seized on opportunities in commercial real estate.

Mexican developer Agave Holdings, which is affiliated with tequila producer Jose Cuervo, started looking at Miami during the U.S. downturn after deciding it wanted to diversify its real estate holdings outside of Mexico.

"After the housing crisis, there was a great opportunity to find good prices," said Jose Antonio Perez, managing director for Agave Holdings.

The company purchased an office building in 2009 that once belonged to the Exxon Mobil Corporation in Miami's affluent Coral Gables neighborhood. It then invested more than $150 million to renovate the property, called 396 Alhambra, which today is home to offices for HBO Latin America and spirits company Diageo.

But it is the residential market where many Latin American developers have focused their attention as interest from international buyers, particularly South Americans, has helped sales and prices recover.

Overall, U,r4 sdhc . ypbox div div span display.S. real estate has benefited from an increase in buying from foreign investors, who have focused heavily on the New York and Miami markets.

In a recent report from Christie's International Real Estate, Miami was listed as eighth among the top 10 luxury real estate markets in the world, with London, New York and the French Riviera in the top three spots.

Several of the new Latin American projects rank among Miami's most ambitious.

Argentine developer and hotelier Alan Faena is leading a $550 million project in Miami Beach to build what is being billed as the Faena District.

Faena helped transform the Puerto Madero riverfront neighborhood in his native Buenos Aires, converting a series of rundown buildings, including an old mill, into a luxury enclave of fine dining anchored by a five-star hotel, an arts center and apartment buildings.

Backed by Russian-born billionaire investor Len Blavatnik,モンクレール ジャケット, Faena's Miami beachfront development involves renovating an iconic Miami Beach hotel,iphone4 ケース シリコン is in no admittance under 17 years, the Saxony, and building a cultural center and theater.

Faena, whose Puerto Madero project was built with a vision of Latin luxury, hopes the Miami project will help establish him as an international property developer.

Miami is "our entryway to the North - it was a natural location for the first phase of the international expansion of Faena," he said.

With Latin American and non-U.S. buyers now representing a majority of real estate sales in Miami, many developers have unveiled a more cash-focused financing strategy familiar to foreign buyers.

That has given an edge to some Latin American developers over domestic builders.

"It's Latin American developers building for Latin American investors," said Zalewski.

It means buyers must pay up as much as 80 percent of the cost of a property before it is completed - something unheard of for most Americans buying a home,R4 通販,セリーヌ リュック but that the 25-year-old still young wife. ".

Melo, whose company is now based in Miami,モンクレールジャパン, claimed credit for being the first developer to implement the pay model, saying when Miami's market imploded and financing tightened, he thought back to his days as a developer in Argentina,iphone5 ケース 人気.

"I thought why not sell them the way I used to back home," he said. "Now everybody is copying me."
