働き方改革会議、残業規制の議論スタート

0

NewsHub政府は1日、関係閣僚と有識者による「働き方改革実現会議」を首相官邸で開き、長時間労働の是正に向けた残業上限規制の議論を始めた。同日の会合は民間議員からの意見表明が中心で、今月14日の次回会合で残業上限を「月60時間、年720時間、繁忙期は月100時間」とする政府案が提示される見通しだ。 議長の安倍晋三首相は残業上限に関し「『過労死基準』をクリアするといった健康の確保を図った上で、女性や高齢者が活躍しやすい社会とする観点や、ワークライフバランスを改善する観点などさまざまな視点から議論する」と述べた。 政府は実現会議が3月末にまとめる実行計画で、法定労働時間を超える残業を可能にする労働基準法36条に基づく労使の「三六協定」に関し、「月60時間、年720時間」の上限の新設方針を明記。繁忙期は年720時間の順守を前提に、厚生労働省が過労死リスクが高まるとする「月100時間超または2~6カ月の平均80時間超」の範囲内で残業を一時的に容認する方向で調整している。 連合の神津里季生会長は同日の会合後、記者団に、過労死基準を超える残業を容認することに対し「到底ありえない」と語った。

NewsHub(TELEGRAPH) — People with depression could see their condition improve if they adopt an upright posture.
That was the conclusion of a study by researchers at the University of Auckland, due for publication in the March issue of the Journal of Behavior Therapy and Experimental Psychiatry.
While previous studies have found that sitting or standing up straight improves self-esteem and mood in healthy people, the new study sought to investigate whether people w

Słowik, Wańka i Parasol zatrzymani przez policję. Czy to powrót gangu pruszkowskiego?

0

NewsHubOszczędny komunikat Prokuratora Krajowego: zatrzymano 14 osób, w tym , Wańkę i Parasola. Postawiono im zarzuty udziału w grupie zorganizowanej i udział w wyłudzeniach VAT. Kto nie pamięta, temu trzeba przypomnieć, że wspomniana trójka to liderzy słynnego. Odsiedzieli długie wyroki (Wańka w sumie 15 lat), wyszli na wolność i przez parę lat panowała wokół nich cisza. Aż nagle prawdziwa bomba: pruszkowscy bossowie wrócili do przestępczej działalności. Z dostępnych informacji wynika, że współpracowali z zajmującą się przestępstwami gospodarczymi szczecińską grupą Sebastiana W. Mieli stanowić dla tego gangu rodzaj ochrony. Trochę to dziwne, zważywszy że cała pruszkowska trójka to już gangsterscy emeryci. Panowie w latach, na skroniach siwe włosy, zdrowie nadszarpnięte. Na tym etapie sprawy za wcześnie na szczegóły. Prokuratura Regionalna w Szczecinie, która zajmuje się tym śledztwem, odmawia jakichkolwiek informacji. Od naszych szczecińskich rozmówców wiemy natomiast, że sprawa może mieć związek z całym łańcuchem wyłudzeń VAT, w czym od pewnego czasu wyspecjalizowali się tzw. biznesmeni z woj. zachodniopomorskiego. Niedawno zatrzymano w związku z tym kilka osób ze środowiska tzw. białych kołnierzyków, w tym znanego w Szczecinie adwokata. Do aresztu trafił też zawodnik MMA. Gangi kryminalne zainteresowały się zyskami pochodzącymi z wyłudzeń, a przynajmniej podjęły próby przejmowania od biznesmenów brudnej forsy pochodzącej z szemranych interesów. Do akcji wkroczył gang niejakiego Dziobaka, współpracującego z przybyszem z Kaukazu o pseudonimie Asuan. Doszło do kilku napadów, jednego z biznesmenów mocno pobito. Policja penetrując po tych zdarzeniach świat przestępczy, trafiła na cennych informatorów, którzy doprowadzili śledczych m.in. do wspomnianej trójki asów z grupy pruszkowskiej. Za wcześnie, aby określać stopień rzeczywistej winy podejrzanych i ich role w rozpisywanym przez prokuraturę scenariuszu pod roboczym tytułem „Pruszków reaktywacja”. Zawsze można przecież założyć, iż bardziej padli ofiarą własnej złej legendy i niewłaściwych znajomości niż faktycznego zaangażowania w przestępcze podziemie. Gdyby jednak okazało się, że tu nie ma pomyłki, a Wańka, Słowik i Parasol wrócili, jak stare wilki do swojego lasu, to byłby jeszcze jeden dowód, że niektórzy nigdy nie uciekną od przeznaczonego im losu. Życie to dla nich nie lekcja pokory i wyciągania wniosków z błędów, ale nieustanna pogoń za brudnymi pieniędzmi. Jakby nie wiedzieli, że to się zawsze kończy , i potem trzeba tkwić kolejne lata za więziennymi kratami.

Inmate uprising locks down 5 Delaware state prisons

0

NewsHubFeb. 1 (UPI) — Delaware authorities locked down several state prisons on Wednesday after a group of inmates took hostages at a maximum security facility.
The revolting inmates began the siege at the James T. Vaughn Correctional Center in Smyrna, taking a number of hostages that included guards and held off authorities for hours.
Wednesday afternoon, one of the hostages spoke to Delaware’s News Journal and relayed demands from the hostage-takers.
„I’m just doing what I’m being told to. I’m just trying to help,“ he said. „They just need somebody to hear their demands. “
After the ordeal began, officials ordered lockdowns for five other Delaware prisons, which is standard protocol.
The News Journal reported that the inmates‘ demands appeared to call for prison reforms, relative to „improper sentencing orders“ and „oppression towards the inmates. “
Police and medical personnel responded to the situation, officials said.

Były prezydent Zabrza skazany za zabójstwo

0

NewsHubDo zabójstwa doszło 17 sierpnia 2008 r. w lesie w Wymysłowie w powiecie będzińskim. Dzień później zmasakrowane ciało ofiary znalazł grzybiarz. Z sekcji wynikało, że F. zmarł z powodu wykrwawienia po ranach zadanych ostrym narzędziem, przypuszczalnie nożem. Byłego prezydenta Zabrza zatrzymano i aresztowano w listopadzie 2009 roku. Zdaniem prokuratury motywem zbrodni był niemal milionowy dług byłego prezydenta. Jerzy G. pożyczył od Lecha F. 246 tys. złotych, a z odsetkami miał mu zwrócić prawie milion.
Po trwającym ponad dwa lata procesie katowicki sąd skazał byłego prezydenta Zabrza w 2013 roku na karę 25 lat pozbawienia wolności. Razem z Jerzym G. na ławie oskarżonych zasiadło czterech mężczyzn. Oskarżeni o współudział w zabójstwie bracia Robert i Rafał T., a także Mariusz F. zostali skazani na 25 lat więzienia. Tomasza L., który współpracował z prokuraturą, skazano na dwa lata więzienia w zawieszeniu. Sędzia Jerzy Kapuściok stwierdził, że oskarżony zlecił porwanie, a następnie zamordował swojego wierzyciela.
Do wydanego w 2013 roku wyroku w poszlakowym procesie przychylił się Sąd Apelacyjny w Katowicach, nieznacznie tylko korygując wyrok I instancji. Przez cały czas trwania procesu 70-letni obecnie Jerzy G. utrzymywał, że jest niewinny i przekonywał, że w momencie zabójstwa Lecha F. był w innym miejscu. Obrona byłego prezydenta Zabrza zapowiada kasację.

Hier nimmt die Polizei den mutmaßlichen Killer fest

0

NewsHubWiesbaden – Nach der Razzia gegen die islamistische Szene hat die Generalstaatsanwaltschaft Frankfurt in einer Pressemitteilung brisante Informationen zum f estgenommen 36-jährigen Tunesier veröffentlicht.
Laut den Ermittlern wurde der Mann wegen des Anschlags auf das Bardo-Museum in Tunis gesucht. Bei dem Anschlag im März 2015 wurden 21 Menschen getötet.
Der Tunesier (36), der sich nach bisherigen Erkenntnissen bereits in den Jahren 2003 bis April 2013 in Deutschland aufgehalten hatte, ist im August 2015 als Asylsuchender erneut in die Bundesrepublik eingereist.
Am 15. August 2016 wurde der Hauptbeschuldigte in Frankfurt am Main festgenommen.
► Anlass für die Festnahme war eine noch zu verbüßende Ersatzfreiheitsstrafe von 43 Tagen aus einer Verurteilung durch das Amtsgericht Frankfurt am Main im Jahr 2008 wegen Körperverletzung.
Zudem lag ein Festnahmeersuchen der tunesischen Behörden zur Vorbereitung der Auslieferung des Hauptbeschuldigten nach Tunesien vor.
Dort wird gegen den Hauptbeschuldigten wegen der mutmaßlichen Beteiligung an der Planung und Umsetzung des Anschlags auf das Bardo Museum in Tunis am 18. März 2015 und des Angriffs auf die tunesische Grenzstadt Ben Guerdane Anfang März 2016 ermittelt.
Der Anschlag auf das Bardo-Nationalmuseum in Tunis war eine der blutigsten Terrorattacken in Tunesien seit dem Anschlag auf der Mittelmeerinsel Djerba im April 2002.
Zwei mit Gewehren bewaffnete Terroristen in Uniform stürmen am 18. März 2015 in das meistbesuchte Museum des Landes, erschießen 22 Menschen und nehmen zahlreiche Geiseln. Spezialkräfte töten die Attentäter.
► Die meisten Toten sind Touristen aus dem Ausland: unter anderen Italiener, Spanier, Polen und Japaner. Entgegen erster Angaben tunesischer Behörden sind keine Deutschen unter den Opfern. Zu der Tat bekennt sich tags darauf die Terrormiliz Islamischer Staat (IS). Laut Innenministerium hatten die Attentäter eine Kampfausbildung in einem libyschen Terrorlager erhalten. Die Polizei nimmt mehrere Verdächtige fest.
Das Bardo-Museum in Tunis besitzt neben dem ägyptischen Museum in Kairo die wohl umfassendste archäologische Sammlung in Nordafrika.
Zu den Hauptattraktionen des wenige Kilometer vom Zentrum entfernten tunesischen Nationalmuseums zählt die weltweit bedeutendste Sammlung römischer Mosaiken.
Wegen der vorgenannten Taten hat der Ermittlungsrichter in Tunis am 3. Juni 2016 Haftbefehl gegen den Hauptbeschuldigten erlassen.
Am 24. August 2016 ordnete das Oberlandesgericht Frankfurt am Main die vorläufige Auslieferungshaft an.
Der Hauptbeschuldigte verbüßte ab dem 15. August 2016 zunächst die 43 Tage Ersatzfreiheitsstrafe aus der Verurteilung durch das Amtsgericht Frankfurt am Main.
Nach dem Knast schloss sich ab dem 27. September 2016 die Vollstreckung der vorläufigen Auslieferungshaft an, die zeitlich auf eine Frist von maximal 40 Tagen begrenzt ist.
Innerhalb dieser Frist müssen die tunesischen Behörden die für die Auslieferung erforderlichen Unterlagen vorlegen.
Seit heute 4 Uhr laufen in Hessen Groß-Razzien gegen die Terror-Szene: 16 Beschuldigte, ein Tunesier wurde festgenommen.
Islamistische Terroristen haben das Nationalmuseum in der tunesischen Hauptstadt Tunis angegriffen. Mindestens 17 Touristen sind tot!
Diese legten aber trotz wiederholter Erinnerung durch die deutschen Behörden die vollständigen Auslieferungsunterlagen nicht innerhalb der 40 Tagesfrist vor – der Tunesier musste am 4. November 2016 aus der Haft entlassen werden. Der Auslieferungshaftbefehl des Oberlandesgerichts Frankfurt am Main wurde aufgehoben.
Direkt nach seiner Haftentlassung bis zu seiner Festnahme am Mittwoch wurde der Mann von Einsatzkräften des Hessischen Landeskriminalamts rund um die Uhr observiert.
Der Beschuldigte wurde gegen 4 Uhr in Frankfurt von Einsatzkräften des Hessischen Landeskriminalamts widerstandslos festgenommen.

Roger Goodell Dodges Questions On Raiders, Parries On Patriots

0

NewsHubHOUSTON (AP) — Nothing produces awkward NFL moments quite like watching the commissioner parry all those thorny issues involving the league’s oldest and newest troublemakers – the Raiders and Patriots.
Reporters spent time poking Roger Goodell about “Deflategate,” the Raiders’ now-threatened move to Las Vegas, and other delicate topics at the commissioner’s less-formal, less-crowded and, frankly, less-newsy pre-Super Bowl news conference, held on a Wednesday this year instead of the traditional Friday afternoon slot.
Going sans necktie and speaking in a room about half the size as his usual Super Bowl venue, Goodell insisted nothing was off-kilter between the league and either team.
He said “there’s a great deal more work to be done” before the Raiders can move to Las Vegas, a reality reinforced after both casino magnate Sheldon Adelson and a backup financier, Goldman Sachs, pulled out of the stadium deal this week. The league is supposed to decide on the Las Vegas move in March.
“But if any key aspect is changed, the process could be slowed down,” Eric Grubman, the league’s executive vice president of business ventures, told The Associated Press.
Goodell said it was unlikely a casino owner could own a stake in a stadium, which would seem to disqualify Adelson anyway. About the more delicate question of whether it’s good business for the league, which has always disdained gambling, to stick a franchise in the gambling capital of America, the commissioner said the league is in touch with the reality that gambling “exists throughout our world.”
“We’ve always said there’s a fine line between team sports gambling and the NFL,” Goodell said. “We want to protect the integrity of our game and that’s something we’ll always do.”
The commissioner was only four days away from potentially handing the Lombardi Trophy to Patriots owner Robert Kraft. It would be the most awkward commissioner-owner handoff since 1981, when Pete Rozelle presented Raiders owner Al Davis with the trophy while Davis was suing the league over Rozelle’s attempt to block the team’s move from Oakland to Los Angeles.
Fittingly, Goodell took five questions about the Patriots, almost all of them designed to put him on the defensive. The core of it: “Deflategate,” and the four-game suspension he levied against Patriots quarterback Tom Brady to start the season.
Among the highlights: Why didn’t Goodell attend a Patriots playoff game, while heading to Atlanta twice? Has he spoken with Brady? How is he getting along with Kraft?
“We have a disagreement about what occurred,” Goodell said. “We have been very transparent about what we think the violation was. We went through a lengthy process. We disagree about that. … I’m not afraid of disagreement. And I don’t think disagreement leads to distrust or hatred.”
Kraft was among the very few owners who attended the news conference, but he ducked out quickly afterward without taking questions.
Goodell also faced a number of questions on the Chargers’ recent move from San Diego to Los Angeles: “Relocations are painful,” he said.
Of this week’s news reports that San Diego could end up as a home for the Raiders if Las Vegas falls through, Goodell cited a “history of markets that get deals done after a team leaves. It’s a painful way to do it.” Among those markets are Cleveland, St. Louis, Los Angeles and this year’s Super Bowl host, Houston.
On other topics:
— Goodell said no timeline had been set on an investigation into alleged domestic abuse by Cowboys running back Ezekiel Elliott. He said there’s an active investigation into former Giants kicker Josh Brown and no decision has been made about his status.
— About loosening restrictions on marijuana use, Goodell essentially ignored the question and said he wants to include that topic in negotiations with the players’ union.
— The commissioner defended widely derided and often non-competitive weekly games on Thursday nights and said they’d remain part of the schedule.
— He fielded no questions about concussions or protecting quarterbacks, even though both remained hot topics all season.
— In the wake of a TV ratings decline, the league will keep looking into ways to decrease the amount of dead time during games.
— Probed a few times on the travel ban and other decisions made recently by President Donald Trump, Goodell refused to wade in, saying he’s 100 percent focused on the Super Bowl. “We’re in a unique position to have an event on Sunday that will bring the world together,” he said.
Goodell also announced the NFL would return to Mexico City next year for a game pitting – who else? – the Raiders and the Patriots.
If the commissioner meets up with Kraft there – or on Sunday, for that matter – he insists everything will be just fine.
“I would tell you it’s not awkward at all for me,” Goodell said. “We have a job to do. We do our job. We understand fans are loyal and passionate for their team and they object and don’t like the outcome. That’s not unusual for me.”

UPDATE 2-Facebook's quarterly profit, revenue beat estimates

0

NewsHub(Adds comments from analyst Pachter, background)
Feb 1 (Reuters) – Facebook Inc shares rose more than 2 percent in after-hours trading on Wednesday as the world’s largest online social network reported higher-than-expected quarterly profit and revenue, helped by continued growth in mobile advertising.
The results offered some reassurance to investors who have been concerned since the company warned in November that ad growth would likely slow „meaningfully“ due to limits on ad load – the total number of ads Facebook can show to each user.
Facebook has faced doubts about whether it can continue its runaway success in the face of such limits, as well as its absence from the Chinese market and criticism about its handling of so-called „fake news“ posts during last year’s U. S. election.
The company suffered a slight setback just before the market close when a jury in Texas ordered Facebook, its virtual reality unit Oculus, and other defendants to pay a combined $500 million to ZeniMax Media Inc, a video game publisher that says Oculus stole its technology.
Facebook shares were up 2.4 percent at $136.44 after the bell on Wednesday.
Mobile ad revenue accounted for 84 percent of the company’s total advertising revenue of $8.63 billion in the fourth quarter that ended Dec. 31, compared with 80 percent a year earlier.
Analysts on average had expected total ad revenue of $8.31 billion, according to research firm FactSet StreetAccount.
The company inched closer to reaching 2 billion users, saying that about 1.86 billion people were using its service monthly as of Dec. 31, up 17 percent from a year earlier.
Mobile daily active users rose 23 percent to 1.15 billion, the company said. About 90 percent of Facebook’s users access the network through mobile devices.
However, many analysts have raised concerns about Facebook’s ability to meet its own targets it sets every quarter.
„I think the rate of growth will decline, but it will remain very high,“ said analyst Michael Pachter of Wedbush Securities. „They grew 57 percent in 2016, and our current model has ‚only‘ 38 percent revenue growth in 2017. That’s still pretty impressive. “
Pachter said he expects Facebook to appeal Wednesday’s jury verdict in Texas, but that the result would not affect the share price even if the company loses. „Even if Facebook has to pay $300 million, it’s less than $0.10 per share and they have $29.5 billion in cash,“ he said.
Apart from the core Facebook network, which contributes the lion’s share to overall revenue, the company’s photo-sharing app Instagram and messaging service WhatsApp also have huge user bases.
Facebook has been adding features to attract more users and retain those already on the network, with a feature to tackle fake news posts being the most recent addition, after the criticism that followed the U. S. election on Nov. 8.
Facebook is expected to generate about $29.71 billion in mobile ad revenue in 2017, according to research firm eMarketer, up about 35.2 percent from 2016.
Net income attributable to Facebook shareholders rose to $3.56 billion, or $1.21 per share, from $1.56 billion, or 54 cents per share, a year earlier.
Excluding items, the company earned $1.41 per share.
Total revenue rose to $8.81 billion from $5.84 billion.
Analysts on average had expected a profit of $1.31 per share on revenue of $8.51 billion, according to Thomson Reuters I/B/E/S.

China tests intercontinental missile with 10 warheads – reports — RT News

0

NewsHubIn the flight test of the DF-5C missile conducted in January, the rocket was fired from the Taiyuan Space Launch Center in central China and to an impact range in the western Taklamakan desert, reports  the Washington Free Beacon’s senior editor, Bill Gertz, citing US defense sources.
The missile was carrying a multiple independently targetable reentry vehicle (MIRV) bus containing ten inert warheads. Earlier versions of the DF-5 have either a single warhead or from six to eight MIRVs, according to estimates.
Gertz says the development may indicate a shift in China’s nuclear deterrence policy to modify older rockets with new MIRV busses, which could mean China intends to increase the number of warheads it possesses. It is currently estimated to have about 250. This would, in turn, force the US to review its own deterrence strategy in order to find a balance between China’s growing capacity and Washington’s nuclear limitation commitment to Russia.
Another theory is that the test was part of the development of a MIRVed payload that will eventually be used on the more advanced DF-41 missiles. China tested a DF-41 in April of last year and reportedly deployed some of the missiles earlier this month in the northern Heilongjiang Province, which borders Russia.
China is estimated to have about 20 DF-5 missiles, which have two stages and range of over 12,000 kilometers. The drawback of its liquid-propellant design is that it takes up to two hours to fuel and prepare for launch.
The test comes amid a period of heightened tensions between China and the US in the wake of the election of Donald Trump as America’s 45th president. Trump has threatened to oppose China on a number of fronts, from its military build-up in the South China Sea to its monetary policy. He has even cast doubt on Washington’s long-standing commitment to the “one China policy,” which regards Taiwan as one with mainland China governed by Beijing.
Officials in Beijing have warned Trump against entering a confrontation, while some Chinese government media outlets have published a number of reports calling for strengthening the Chinese military to compensate for an increased perceived threat from the US.
Unlike China, the US has not pledged not to use nuclear weapons in a first strike, although the nuclear option is reserved for only dire circumstances in US military doctrine.
