Your tutorials on Youtube were helpful. Video helps most people who get lost. For example, I knew there was something wrong with my first SPUI until I saw your video and realized I was missing a turning lane.- 3,919 Replies

sim city 4 crashes city when after download
Hellken replied to oldskool78's topic in SimCity 4 General Discussion
This is why you should never download without testing first. The cause of the CTD is obviously from one of your downloads (especially of it is a mod) -

I wish. Very insightful post. So.... how can I replace the dirt 'wealth grass' with something else like a sidewalk or a transparent base? Is it possible? -

Sometimes it really takes some time. Try the Day/Night Cycle instead. Also, some creators simply forget or the lights won't work in their render so it doesn't show up at all.

Check your region first and update accordingly.

'Down syndrome girl', 11, faces death penalty for desecrating Koran in Pakistan
Hellken replied to Hellken's topic in Current Events
Someone please remind Rao Abdur Raheem why he is out of his mind. "If you burn me, I will forgive you, but if you burn our Quran, then I will fight a legal battle to seek maximum punishment for anyone doing this act," he said. "We will not accept any such thing," he said. "If the court is not allowed to do its work, because the state is helping the accused, then the public has no other option except to take the law into their own hands." -
'Down syndrome girl', 11, faces death penalty for desecrating Koran in Pakistan

Pakistan blasphemy case: 'Muslims could take law into their own hands' Lawyer for man who accused Christian girl of burning Qur'an raises spectre of vigilante act if Rimsha Masih is not convicted Saeed Shah in Islamabad guardian.co.uk, Thursday 30 August 2012 15.40 BST Rao Abdur Raheem, lawyer for the man who accuses Rimsha Masih of blasphemy, said: 'The girl is guilty. If the state overrides the court, then God will get a person to do the job.' Photograph: Faisal Mahmood/Reuters A lawyer representing the man who accused a Pakistani Christian girl of blasphemy has said that if she is not convicted, Muslims could "take the law into their own hands". Rao Abdur Raheem cited the example of Mumtaz Qadri, the man who last year shot dead a politician who had called for reform of the much-abused blasphemy law. The apparent hijacking of the case against Rimsha Masih by organised extremists, including lawyers, could further complicate a bitterly contentious case. The lawyer's comments are likely to further complicate a bitterly contentious case that has caused an international outcry and embarrassed the Pakistani government. It could intimidate the court and would put her life at further risk even if she is freed. The girl, Rimsha Masih, from Mehrabadi, Islamabad, whose family says she is 11, was arrested this month and charged with desecrating the Qur'an after a neighbour, Malik Hammad, claimed that he saw her with burnt pages of the holy text in a bag she was carrying. Her family had hoped that she would be granted bail on Thursday after a medical report this week found that she was a minor – thus eligible for bail – and had learning difficulties. But those hopes were dashed when Raheem challenged the report and the hearing was postponed. According to Raheem, the medical report on Masih was illegal, as it followed the orders of a civil servant and not the court, and went beyond its remit of determining her age. He accused the government of supporting her and manipulating court proceedings. Speaking outside the Islamabad court after the hearing, Raheem said: "There are many Mumtaz Qadris in this country … This [medical] report has been managed by the state, state agencies and the accused." The case has caused an international outcry. Later, sitting in his office beneath a large poster of Qadri, Raheem told the Guardian: "If the court is not allowed to do its work, because the state is helping the accused, then the public has no other option except to take the law into their own hands." There is however a glimmer of hope. In this case, for the first time in the case hardline Islamic clerics have cautioned against presuming the guilt of Rimsha Masih. Last night one of Pakistan's most radical mullahs, Ahmed Ludhianvi, head of the banned Sipah-e-Sahaba, which is blamed for hundreds of sectarian killings, told the Guardian: "There should be a thorough investigation. If she [Masih] didn't do it, she should be freed. If she is mentally disturbed, scholars should consider what should be done. Islam does not allow anyone to be punished instantaneously." Last year, many lawyers rallied around Qadri, who killed Punjab governor Salman Taseer, showering him with rose petals when he appeared in court. Raheem said he had taken on the case for free because he was convinced that Masih should be punished. "This girl is guilty. If the state overrides the court, then God will get a person to do the job," he said. However, it seems unclear why the accuser suspected Masih and how he saw inside the bag that she was apparently carrying. It is also unclear whether any burnt pages were actually from the Qur'an. Following Raheem's objections to the medical report, the court has asked the authorities for clarification and will hear the case again on Saturday, when bail for the girl could again be considered. Blasphemy allegations are often made on the flimsiest of evidence but enraged mobs pressure the police into registering cases. In court, the alleged act of blasphemy cannot even be repeated, as that would be an act of blasphemy in itself, so verdicts are reached in the absence of the main piece of evidence. Earlier this year, a mentally disturbed Muslim man in Bahawalpur, a city in the middle of the country, was accused of blasphemy and arrested. After a crowd of up to 2,000 stormed the police station and dragged him out, he was beaten and burned alive. In 2009, a mob attacked an area where Christians lived in Gojra, a town in Punjab province, burning at least eight people to death. The fate of the Christians at Gojra hangs heavily over Masih's own community. They fled en masse after Rimsha Masih was taken away by police from her home. Now, two weeks on, many of the Christians have trickled back, but they remain terrified. One Christian, Arif Masih, returned to his house in Mehrabadi after nine days to find it looted. "People are so afraid, they cannot sleep at night," he said. "We just want to leave, we want to be given somewhere else to live," said Masih. • This article was amended on 31 August 2012 to correct editing mistakes throughout. © 2012 Guardian News and Media Limited or its affiliated companies.

'Down syndrome girl', 11, faces death penalty for desecrating Koran in Pakistan
Hellken replied to Hellken's topic in Current Events
ISLAMABAD (AP) — A judge hearing the case of a Pakistani Christian girl accused of blasphemy delayed her bail hearing on Thursday after a lawyer questioned a medical report putting the girl's age at 14, suggesting the government had tried to influence it. The new challenge quashed the possibility that the controversy surrounding the case would be swiftly defused and the girl set free. The case has focused attention on Pakistan's strict blasphemy laws that can result in life in prison or even death. Christians in her Islamabad neighborhood left the area en masse as soon as the accusations surfaced, fearing retribution from their Muslim neighbors as the case has inflamed religious tensions in this Muslim majority country. Questions have been raised about her age, whether she is mentally impaired, what exactly she was burning and why. A medical report submitted Tuesday put her age at 14, which would have moved the case to the more lenient juvenile justice system. It said her mental state was even less than that of a 14-year-old, which raised questions about whether she had the capacity to understand her actions. But a lawyer representing a man accusing the girl of burning the Quran challenged the validity of the report in a court hearing in Islamabad. The room was crowded with lawyers, members of the Christian community and journalists, all standing pressed against the judge's bench as he listened to the lawyers. Rao Abdur Raheem said the report was ordered by a top city official and completed even before the judge himself ordered it to be carried out. Saying the process was "unduly favoring the accused," he asked the judge to reject it. Speaking after the hearing, Raheem said supporters of the victim were trying to turn this case into an international issue along the lines of Asia Bibi. The case of Asia Bibi, a Christian woman sentenced to death in 2010 for insulting Islam, gathered massive international attention and criticism for Pakistan's tough anti-blasphemy laws. The lawyer said the girl had confessed to burning part of a Quran and said he would seek the maximum punishment. He said no one should be allowed to hurt the sentiments of Muslims by desecrating their holy book or by insulting their religious personalities. "If you burn me, I will forgive you, but if you burn our Quran, then I will fight a legal battle to seek maximum punishment for anyone doing this act," he said. "We will not accept any such thing," he said. Under the Pakistani legal system, everyday citizens can bring a court case against someone simply by hiring a lawyer. A state prosecutor was also in the courtroom, as were two defense lawyers for the girl, but the proceeding was dominated by Abdur Raheem. Critics of Pakistan's blasphemy laws say they can be used to settle vendettas or seek retribution. Many of Pakistan's minorities, including Christians, live in fear of being accused of blasphemy. People accused of the crime, even those that aren't convicted, often face vigilante justice by outraged Pakistanis. A Pakistani man accused of blasphemy in July was dragged from a police station in the center of the country, beaten to death and his body set on fire. Few are willing to tackle the explosive issue after two prominent politicians who criticized the law were murdered last year. One was killed by his own bodyguard, who then attracted adoring crowds. The Pakistani government has been largely silent on the girl's case. Immediately following her arrest, President Asif Ali Zardari issued a statement calling for an investigation but has said nothing since then. A defense lawyer for the girl, Tahir Naveed Chaudhry, said the report prepared by a seven-member medical board had not favored the girl, and the government had not tried to influence the doctors in any way. "We will try our best to get her freed," he said. The new bail hearing is scheduled for Saturday while the judge seeks clarification on how the report was conducted. ======================================================================= Is this lawyer, Rao Abdur Raheem, out of his mind?!
