ARLINGTON, Va. (AP) ? More than 150 years after the USS Monitor sank off North Carolina during the Civil War, two unknown crewmen found in the ironclad's turret when it was raised a decade ago were buried Friday at Arlington National Cemetery.

The evening burial, which included a gun salute and a band playing "America the Beautiful," may be the last time Civil War soldiers are buried at the cemetery overlooking Washington.

"Today is a tribute to all the men and women who have gone to sea, but especially to those who made the ultimate sacrifice on our behalf," said Navy Secretary Ray Mabus, who spoke at a funeral service before the burial.

The Monitor made nautical history when the Union ship fought the Confederate CSS Virginia in the first battle between two ironclads on March 9, 1862. The battle was a draw.

The Monitor sank about nine months later in rough seas, and 16 sailors died. In 2002, the ship's rusted turret was raised from the Atlantic Ocean floor, and the skeletons of the two crew members were found inside.

On Friday, the remains of the two men were taken to their gravesite by horse-drawn caissons, one pulled by a team of six black horses and the other pulled by six white horses. White-gloved sailors carried the caskets to their final resting place near the cemetery's amphitheater. A few men attending the ceremonies wore Civil War uniforms, and there were ladies in long dresses from the time. The ceremony also included "Taps," which was written the same year that the Monitor sank and became associated with military funerals as early as the Civil War.

The sailors buried Friday would not have recognized some parts of the graveside service, however. The military band played "America the Beautiful," which wasn't written until three decades after the Monitor sank. And the flags that draped the silver coffins were modern ones with 50 stars, not the 34-star American flag of the early 1860s.

The cemetery where the men will lie, however, has strong ties to the Civil War. Arlington was established as a military cemetery during the war and is on grounds formerly owned by the Confederate Gen. Robert E. Lee. One of the cemetery's first monuments was a memorial to unknown Civil War soldiers.

A marker with the names of all 16 men who died onboard the Monitor will ultimately be placed at the gravesite of the sailors buried Friday. Researchers were unable to positively identify the remains, though they tried reconstructing the sailors' faces from their skulls and comparing DNA from the skeletons with living relatives of the ship's crew and their families. Medical and Navy records narrowed the possibilities to six people.

What is known is that one of the men was between 17 and 24 years old and the other was likely in his 30s. A genealogist who worked on the project believes the older sailor is Robert Williams, the ship's fireman, who would have tended the Monitor's coal-fired steam engine.

Relatives of some of the men who died attended Friday's ceremony. Diana Rambo of Fresno, Calif., came with four other family members. She's related through her mother, Jane Nicklis Rowland, to Monitor crewman Jacob Nicklis, who died when the ship sank. The family didn't know a relative had served on the ship until they received a letter requesting DNA, but Rambo said she's since learned more about the "connection to history that we never knew we have." She said after the ceremony that she's less concerned about knowing for certain who was buried Friday.

"It kind of doesn't matter. It was all about honoring the 16," she said of the ceremony.

Mobile Phone Spying Software: Legality, Symptoms, and Removal

Introduction

At present, there are many websites offering mobile phone spying software. Typical examples of such websites are SpyBubble (http://www.spybubble.com/), Mobile-Spy (http://www.mobile-spy.com/), and Stealthgenie (http://http://www.stealthgenie.com/). By installing mobile phone spying software, one can keep track of the information exchanged over the tracked phone, including SMS text messages and phone calls. Moreover, most mobile phone spying software tracks the GPS location of the phone user. This is possible because a mobile phone constantly sends and receives signals to the nearest transmitter while it?s switched on.

It should be noted that mobile phone spying software is evolving quickly. A Japanese company called KDDI Corporation has recently developed technology that tracks even the tiniest movements of a mobile phone user and then beams the information back to the main headquarters. The software produced by the company works by analyzing the movement of accelerometers which are found in many handsets. As a result, the software may identify activities such as walking, climbing stairs or even cleaning. The company stated that it is going to sell the service to clients, including managers, foremen and employment agencies.

While the technological developments in the mobile spying field are welcomed by companies, human rights lawyers express their concerns regarding the potential abuse of privacy rights. Kazuo Hizumi, a human rights lawyer, stated that ?It beggars belief that a prominent company such as KDDI could come up with such a surveillance system. It?s totally irresponsible.?

This article investigates whether the sale (Section 2) and the use (Section 3) of mobile phone spying software is legal. Also, the article examines the symptoms indicating that mobile phone spying software has been installed on a phone (Section 4) and provides instructions on how to remove mobile phone spying software (Section 5). Finally, a conclusion is drawn (Section 6).

The sale of mobile phone spying software
In the US and in many other countries, the sale of mobile phone spying software is legal. This is because companies providing mobile phone spying software always add a disclaimer stating that it is the responsibility of the user to ensure that he/she complies with all applicable laws. For example, a part of the disclaimer of Mobile-Spy reads as follows:

?It is a federal and state offense in most countries to install monitoring/surveillance software onto a phone which you do not own or have proper authorization to install. It may also be an offense in your jurisdiction to monitor the activities of other individuals. Check all state, federal and local laws before installing any Cell Phone Spy Software such as Mobile Spy. You must always notify a person they are being monitored if they are over age 18. Federal or local law governs the use of some types of software; it is responsibility of the user to follow such laws.?

Basically, all companies say that the buyers of their software are solely responsible for complying with the applicable laws. In reality, many people will ignore the law and use this software for unlawful purposes. So, while the sale of mobile phone spying software is completely legal, it certainly raises moral concerns.

Companies selling such software know that many buyers will use it illegally. It is difficult to believe that someone who wants to know whether or not his spouse is cheating on him will ask her for permission to install mobile phone spying software on her phone. Nevertheless, many providers of this software advertise their product as a means to catch a cheating spouse.

The use of mobile phone spying software

As long as the user complies with the applicable laws, there is nothing illegal in the use of mobile phone spying software. However, the illegal use of such software may have harsh consequences for the person violating the laws. US federal law allows recording of phone calls and other electronic communications with the consent of at least one party to the call, and a majority of states and territories have adopted laws based on the federal standard. It should be noted, however, that twelve states require the consent of all parties to the call under most circumstances. These twelve states are California, Connecticut, Florida, Illinois, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, Montana, Nevada, New Hampshire, Pennsylvania, and Washington. For more about the state and federal laws in the US, please look at the comprehensive guide to Electronic Surveillance Laws published by National Conference of State Legislatures, which is available at http://www.ncsl.org/issues-research/telecom/electronic-surveillance-laws.aspx.

Below, I discuss the use of mobile phone spying software for monitoring children, employees, and spouses.

Children

In most countries, it is legal for parents to monitor the phones of their children since they are responsible for their children?s safety. With such software, parents have the opportunity to use an additional safety option in case they have problems with their children. For example, a testimony published on the website of Mobile-Spy states:

?Our daughter stole our truck, bank cards, credit cards and the phone. The only way to find her was by tracking the SMS with your software. The police were able to catch her with the messages. We would not have caught her as fast as we did without Mobile Spy. Adam D?

Employees

In the US, employers may generally monitor and even record their employees? phone conversations with a few restrictions. In this regard, it is worth mentioning that the laws of California require that all parties of any conversation are informed that they are being recorded or monitored. The parties should be informed either by putting a beep tone on the line or playing a recorded message (See California Public Utilities Commission General Order 107-B, www.cpuc.ca.gov/Published/Graphics/567.pdf).

By tracking the cell phones of employees, the employer may not only receive information about the working habits of their employees, but also find out if there is leak of confidential information. For example, in a testimonial published on the website StealthGenie, a Mr. B. Cortes states:

?I had serious doubts that one of my employees was leaking some confidential information. I tried to monitor him but I couldn?t really figure out the truth. I installed StealthGenie in his phone and then I got to view on the online interface some pictures of very important documents that were confidential and were sent to our competitor and his texts showed that he was being paid a heavy amount to steal the information. I called him in the office, showed him all the details and fired him immediately. All thanks to StealthGenie due to which I was able to save my business in time otherwise I would have been stripped completely and my competitors would have been way ahead from my company.?

Spouses

In the US and many other countries, monitoring of spouses without their permission is illegal. Moreover, the information obtained through illegal monitoring will not serve as evidence in a court of law. So, while knowledge typically is power, in this case it can be a limited power.

Symptoms indicating that mobile phone spying software has been installed on a phone

The following four symptoms indicate that spying software has been installed on a mobile phone: (1) unusually high bill, (2) battery drain, (3) shut down problems, and (4) appearance of new icons. These symptoms are examined in detail below.

An unusually high bill for mobile phone services may be a result of the numerous connections required by spying software for the transfer of secretly recorded data. Battery exhaustion can also be caused by the continuous running of the software, as it will always be active in the background to be able to record events such as incoming/outgoing messages, call history, and GPS location. This background activity often causes problems when a person attempts to shut his/her mobile phone. New icons may appear because the operation of mobile phone spying software requires data connection.

Removal

It is a widely spread myth that, if a phone call is monitored, the participants in the call should hear a noise. In this regard, it should be pointed out that, normally, spying software emits no audible sounds. Such software works in complete stealth mode without leaving any kind of trace behind. Without expert advice, the person, whose phone is being spied on, will never detect the spying software that?s installed on his/her cell phone.

In case a person thinks that mobile spying software may be installed on his phone, the best he/she can do is to request from the seller of the phone to restore it to factory settings and clear out any hidden software installed in it. If mobile spying software is found to be illegally installed on a person?s phone, that person should immediately notify his/her local law enforcement officials.

Conclusion

This article has shown that the sale and use of mobile phone spying software can be completely legal. When used properly as monitoring devices, mobile phone spying software can be very beneficial. Employers, parents, police forces, as well as security experts, are potential lawful customers of mobile phone spying software. That is why providers of such software can advertise and market their products lawfully over the Internet. It is up to the user of the software to comply with any applicable laws. The sanctions for unlawful monitoring of a person?s phone may consist of imprisonment, fines, damages, and attorney?s fees.

While presently anyone who can perform a basic Internet search can find out how to install a mobile spying application and install it in two minutes? time, not much information concerning the legal consequences of using such software is available. This is exploited by companies who advertise their software with statements such as ?Catch a Cheating Spouse,? ?the monitored phone?s user will never know that they are being monitored,? ?Since 2005, we have helped catch thousands of cheating partners,? and others.

ANA says it had Dreamliner power distribution panel trouble three times

TOKYO (Reuters) - Japan's All Nippon Airways had three instances of electric distribution panel trouble in its Boeing 787 Dreamliner before it grounded the aircraft in January and had to replace the panel twice, a spokesman said.

In the most serious case, which took place in April 2012, ANA found burns in the protection circuit and the breaker of an electric distribution panel during on-ground inspections after pilots received a generator-related bug message, ANA spokesman Etsuya Uchiyama said on Thursday.

The company believes a foreign material entered the panel and caused the short circuit. The material is likely to have scattered and damaged the breaker, and ANA replaced the damaged panel, he said.

"We believe this is not serious. Fire damage in electric distribution panels are also found in other types of aircraft, and it has no impact on safe operation of aircraft," he said.

ANA, which is Japan's largest airline and the biggest operator of 787s worldwide, reported the case to Japan's Civil Aviation Bureau, Uchiyama said.

The airline also replaced an electric distribution panel in June 2012 and exchanged parts in a panel in March 2012, he said. These two cases were not reported to the Civil Aviation Bureau.

On Wednesday, the Japan Federation of Aviation Workers' Unions said ANA experienced short circuits in its 787 electric distribution panel at least five times between December 2011 and October 2012, citing ANA mechanics.

Asked about the Federation's information, ANA's Uchiyama said the panel problems occurred three times, not five.

The federation, which groups unions representing aviation workers including mechanics, flight attendants and pilots, did not mention Japan Airlines , the second-largest 787 operator.

JAL could not be reached immediately for comment.

Boeing did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

ANA operated 17 Dreamliners before the aircraft was grounded in mid-January after lithium-ion batteries burned on two jets, one in the United States and one in Japan.

The 787 uses a large electrical system with multiple generators and power distribution panels to perform many functions that on other jets are powered by compressed air from the plane's engines.

In 2010, a power distribution panel caught fire during a 787 test flight. In December 2012, a United Airlines 787 made an emergency landing due to electrical problems stemming from a distribution panel. Boeing later said it traced that problem to a faulty circuit board made in Mexico.

Adidas posts loss on weaker Reebok prospects

FRANKFURT, Germany (AP) ? Sports gear maker Adidas AG lost ?273 million ($356 million) in the fourth quarter as it wrote down the value of its weakening Reebok brand. But it said sales and earnings would increase this year and raised its dividend payments.

Adidas shares rose after Thursday's announcement, trading 3.7 percent higher at ?74.32 in morning trading in Europe.

The company, based in Herzogenaurach, Germany, said it took a goodwill impairment of ?265 million at the end of last year. It said the loss was "mainly caused because of adjusted growth assumptions for the Reebok brand, especially in North America, Latin America and Brazil."

The net loss compared to a profit of ?1 million for the same quarter in the previous year. Sales rose 4 percent to ?3.37 billion.

The company said sales revenue in Western Europe fell 4 percent adjusted for exchange rate swings, as the year-earlier figure was boosted by sales ahead of the Euro 2012 soccer tournament and the 2012 London Olympics.

Adidas expects sales this year to increase in the mid-single digit percentage rate, and earnings per share to rise more strongly, to between ?4.25 and ?4.40, compared with ?2.52 for last year.

The company said management would propose a 2012 dividend payment of ?1.35 per share at the annual shareholders' meeting May 8, an increase over the ?1.00 per share paid for 2011.

For the full year, net income fell 14 percent to ?526 million from ?613 million in 2011. Group sales increased 12 percent to ?14.88 billion.
