(AP) ? South African police halted a peaceful march by striking miners without violence Sunday, a day after firing rubber bullets and tear gas to disperse illegal protesters.

Officers barricaded a main road into Rustenburg, northwest of Johannesburg, and persuaded some 500 miners that their march was illegal and that they should go home.

Sunday's protesters from Anglo American Platinum mines wanted to march to Rustenburg police station to demand an end to the violence against strikers. Some carried sticks but there were none of the machetes, spears and clubs that have marked previous protests for higher wages.

On Saturday police raided hostels at Lonmin platinum mine and collected homemade weapons. They fired rubber bullets and tear gas to force people into their homes. It was the first police action since officers killed 34 miners on Aug. 16 in state violence that shocked the nation.

The strikes have shut down one gold and six platinum mines, destabilizing the country's critical mining sector.

Saturday's show of force follows a government vow to halt illegal protests and disarm strikers.

The police crackdown on striking miners was condemned by the South African Council of Churches.

"Government must be crazy believing that what to me resembles an apartheid-era crackdown can succeed," said Anglican Bishop Jo Seoka, president of the Council of Churches. "We must not forget that such crackdowns in the past led to more resistance and government can ill afford to be seen as the enemy of the people that they put in power."

Seoka, who also is head of the Bench Marks Foundation that put out a damning report last month about miners' living and working conditions, said the strike had just cause and was not the work of instigators, as some have suggested.

"The problem will not go away even if this crackdown wins the present battle," he said. "The 'war' between workers who do not receive just remuneration against the enormous amounts of money paid to executives will continue to fester."

Seoka said the government was destroying four weeks of mediation in which he has taken part. He called for minimal policing of strikers.

A negotiated resolution appears distant at the Lonmin platinum strike that is now in its fifth week. Workers rejected the company's offer to boost the entry-level monthly salary by 900 rand ($112.50) to about R5,500 ($688) with commensurate increases for higher paid workers. That falls far short of the strikers' demands for a minimum monthly wage of R12,500 ($1,560).

The strikers have said they would rather see Lonmin shut down the mine than accept a lower offer.

Sunday Lonmin stated the demand for 12,500 rand is "unaffordable and would result in a trade-off between wages and jobs."

Finance Minister Pravin Gordhan said Friday that the strikes are "extremely damaging" to the economy.

"It undermines confidence in the South African economy and, if we undermine confidence, we undermine investment," he said.

The Lonmin strike has been marked by violence. On Aug. 10 the strike began at Lonmin, the world's third largest platinum mine and it is rooted in the rivalry between the NUM and a breakaway union. Strikers accuse the NUM of being coopted by mine management and being too involved in business and politics to pay attention to basic shop-floor needs of its members.

Ten people were killed in the strike's first week, including two police officers hacked to death by strikers, two mine security guards burned alive in their vehicles and six shop stewards of the dominant National Union of Mineworkers.

Then on Aug. 16 police opened fire on protesting strikers, killing 34 and injuring more than 70. The shootings, shown widely on television, have provoked anger and widespread criticism of the police.

Strikes are illegal in South Africa unless approved by the government labor conciliation board, which only allows stoppages once workers prove they have tried and failed to negotiate with an employer and after the conciliation board itself also tries to resolve the issue.

India with majority on Commonwealth Comm for HR issue


Speaking on India s stance on the proposal to appoint a commissioner for Democracy, Human Rights and the rule of law in the Commonwealth, Speaker of Lok Sabha in India, Meira Kumar yesterday said her country was with the outcome of discussions at the current CPC in this regard.

At the deliberations held on Wednesday at the Commonwealth Parliamentary Association conference at the BMICH, an overwhelming majority of the member countries spoke against the idea of appointing such a Commissioner. The Speaker of the Indian Lok Sabha in answer to a question by the Daily News said, There was a workshop on this.

Whatever the outcome of the workshop I suppose will form a part of the proposals of the CPA Member countries on Wednesday engaged in a lengthy discussion on the topic of Should the Commonwealth Establish a Commissioner for Democracy, the Rule of Law and the Human Rights at the ongoing CPA sessions.

Speaker Kumar spoke to journalists after a bilateral meeting with Sri Lankan Speaker Chamal Rajapaksa at the BMICH.

After Wednesday s discussions, Leader of the House Minister Nimal Siripala de Silva said that over 90 percent of the member states were not in favour of making such an appointment.

Deputy Speaker and chairman of the Organizing Committee of the 58th CPC Chandima Weerakkody later said that UK, Canada and Australia and a few Sri Lankan Parliamentarians representing the Opposition spoke in favour of appointing a Commissioner.

He said the majority member countries opposed the move and maintained that the CPA should exist for mutual understanding among the member countries.

Deputy Speaker Weerakkody stated that Opposition Leader Ranil Wickremesinghe, Opposition MPs Jayalath Jayawardena, John Amarathunga, and TNA MP Sumanthiran stood in favour of the appointement of a Commissioner.

During the Heads of Government meeting of the Commonwealth held in Perth, Australia in 2011 too a majority of member nations rejected the same proposal.

Mrs. Meira Kumar, called on President Mahinda Rajapaksa, Thursday morning at Temple Trees.

    HOW TO LIVE FOREVER: Movie Trailer

    Director Mark Wexler embarks on a worldwide trek to investigate just what it means to grow old and what it could mean to really live forever. But whose advice should he take? Does 94-year-old exercise guru Jack LaLanne have all the answers, or does Buster, a 103-year-old chain-smoking, beer-drinking marathoner? What about futurist Ray Kurzweil, a laughter yoga expert, or an elder porn star? Wexler explores the viewpoints of delightfully unusual characters alongside those of health, fitness and life-extension experts in this engaging new documentary, which challenges our notions of youth and aging with comic poignancy. Begun as a study in life-extension, How To Live Forever evolves into a thought-provoking examination of what truly gives life meaning.

4 Low-Debt Healthcare Stocks Raking In Profits

Disclosure: I have no positions in any stocks mentioned, and no plans to initiate any positions within the next 72 hours. (More...)

Business relationship disclosure: This article was prepared for ZetaKap Media by one of our full-time analysts. We did not receive compensation for this article (other than from Seeking Alpha), and we have no business relationship with any company whose stock is mentioned in this article.

With the proliferation of companies in the healthcare sector, it can be a daunting endeavor to stay on top of the latest developments in research, treatments and devices. To remain competitive, many healthcare companies have to be both nimble and creative which can incur large and sometimes unanticipated costs. For our list today we wanted to find healthcare companies that are providing innovative products while maintaining sound finances. We first screened for companies that have a track record of profitability. From there we only included those that have minimal long-term debt. The dual assets of low debt and strong profits are shared by all of the healthcare companies in our list below. Review the findings for yourself to see if any of these stocks pique your interest.

The Net Margin is a profitability metric that illustrates, by percentage, how much of every dollar earned gets turned into a bottom line profit. This is just one of many profitability metrics used by investors and analysts to better understand what the company is being left with at the end of the day. Generally, a firm that can expand its net profit margins over a period of time will see its stock price rise as well due to the trend of increasing profitability. Net Margin = Net Income/Total Revenue

Return on Assets [ROA] illustrates how much a company is generating in earnings from its assets alone. This metric gives investors a picture of how profitable the company is relative to the assets in current possession. As well, it lets investors see how efficient and effective management is at generating earnings from the company's assets. While most management teams can probably make money by throwing money at an issue very few can make very large profits with little investment.

The Long Term Debt/Equity Ratio is a variation of the traditional debt-to-equity ratio; this value computes the proportion of a company's long-term debt compared to its available capital. By using this ratio, investors can identify the amount of leverage utilized by a specific company and compare it with others to help analyze the company's risk exposure. Generally, companies that finance a greater portion of their capital via debt are considered riskier than those with lower leverage ratios.

The Debt/Equity Ratio illustrates how aggressively a company is financing its growth via debt. The more debt financing that is used in a capital structure, the more volatile earnings can become due to the additional interest expense. Should a company's potentially enhanced earnings fail to exceed the cost associated with debt financing over time, this can lead the company toward substantial trouble.

We first looked for healthcare stocks. We then looked for companies that have strong bottom line profitability (Net Margin [TTM]>10%) (ROA > 10%). Next, we then screened for businesses that have maintained a sound long term capital structure (Long Term D/E Ratio<.1). We then looked for businesses that have maintained a sound capital structure (D/E Ratio<.1). We did not screen out any market caps.

A leader of Anonymous hacking group arrested

20 hrs.

A self-professed?leader of the computer hacker group Anonymous was arrested by authorities in Dallas, officials said on Thursday.

"He was arrested and brought in for booking about 11 p.m. last night," said Dallas County Sheriff's spokeswoman Carmen Castro.

She didn't know why Barrett Brown, 31, was arrested, saying there was no offense listed on the booking sheet. Brown was turned over to the FBI, she said.

A spokesman for the FBI declined to comment.

A Twitter account for the California law firm Leiderman Devine said it would be defending Brown at a hearing in Dallas federal court later on Thursday and that he had been detained on charges of "threatening a federal agent."

Brown has been under the eye of law enforcement for some time and was interviewed by the FBI in March when authorities revealed that Hector Xavier Monsegur was the person behind Sabu, the colorful leader of Lulz Security, an offshoot of Anonymous.

Anonymous and other loosely affiliated hacking groups have taken credit for carrying out attacks against the CIA, Britain's Serious Organized Crime Agency, Japan's Sony Corp, Mexican government websites and the national police in Ireland. Other victims included Rupert Murdoch's UK newspaper arm News International, Fox Broadcasting and Sony Pictures Entertainment.

Authorities have been attempting to beat back the intrusions and have arrested a number of the groups' key players.

Brown has been faulted by many members of Anonymous for using his real name and for being quoted as a representative of the group, which prides itself on being loosely knit and having no clear leaders.

He is best known for threatening to hack into the computers of the Zetas, one of Mexico's deadly drug trafficking cartels.

Brown did not immediately return a message left on his cell phone on Thursday.

Several websites posted what they said was video of Brown conducting a web chat as officers arrived, yelling "get your hands up!"

It's unclear whether Brown's arrest is related to a rambling video he posted on YouTube Wednesday called "Why I'm Going to Destroy FBI Agent Robert Smith," in which he says "I am fairly certain I am going to do prison time."

In a monologue riddled with obscenities, Brown says he plans to "ruin" Smith's life, adding that the FBI has threatened his mother with arrest and posted pictures of his home on line.

"Robert Smith's life is over," Brown said on the video.

Brown did not immediately return a message left on his cell phone on Thursday.

Everything You Need to Know About iOS 6 in Under Three Minutes [Video]

Everything You Need to Know About iOS 6 in Under Three Minutes iOS 6 is packed with a lot of great new features and it can be a lot to take in. We'll show you everything you need to know in under three minutes so you can stay up to date and move on with your life.

Watch the video above for the overview. The quick details are below, too.

Turn-by-Turn Navigation

The top feature for most people is Maps, because it now offers turn-by-turn navigation guided by Siri. As you'd expect from Apple, the maps are attractive and pretty easy to read. Directions are really large so you can see them well if you need to quickly glance in the car. The downside is that Maps only offers driving directions, so public transit and walking directions no longer exist. You also need an iPhone 4S, 3rd generation iPad, or newer device to use it. Older models use the new app but offer no voice-guided directions. One more thing to say about Maps is Flyover, which lets you explore a map in 3D. It's pretty cool.

Passbook

Passbook is a new app that keeps track of all your passes and tickets, such as movie tickets and flights. It can even store digital gift and discount cards. As with any new release, partners are limited but it seems Apple has started out with a quite a few major ones. Starbucks, Fandango, and several major airlines support the service.

Phone Updates

While not as flashy, updates to the Phone app are pretty great. You can now reply with a text message or immediately set a reminder to call the person back when you're available next. Those reminders can be based on where you are, too. iOS 6 provides a Do Not Disturb mode, too, so you can set quiet hours when you don't want to get calls. If you want calls from certain people to go through during these hours, you can set them as emergency contacts and Do Not Disturb will allow them in.

VIP Mail

The Mail app has a nice new feature called VIP, which is similar to Gmail's Priority Inbox but more specific. Basically, you can choose which contacts are VIPs and their emails will pop up in a special inbox so you don't have to look at emails from lowly peons.

A Smarter Siri

Siri gets smarter in iOS 6. She now knows about sports, can make OpenTable reservations, pull up a movie trailer, and works in a variety of new languages. Additionally, Siri works on the iPad.

Facetime Over Cellular

Want to make FaceTime calls over cellular? You can in iOS 6?sort of. Apple allows it. Your carrier may charge you or require a certain plan for the privilege.

Photos

Photos also got a small upgrade in iOS 6. You can now upload photos to web sites via mobile Safari, and you can share your photo stream with others.

Facebook Integration

iOS 6 integrates Facebook system-wide. Sign in once on your iDevice, then share whatever you want at will.

Better Privacy Settings

Apple's beefed up its privacy settings, allowing you to see what apps are using what kinds of data at any time. If an app is accessing something you don't want it to, you can just revoke those permissions in Settings.

Panorama Photos

If you get your hands on an iPhone 5, the camera app now has a sweeping panorama mode. Basically, you just sweep your phone from left to right and it'll assemble a giant panorama for you.
