Jean-Pol Martins Weblog EU launches antitrust probe into alleged Google abuses 30 November 2010Last updated at 20:30 The probe does not imply any wrongdoing by Google The European Commission has launched an investigation into Google after other search engines complained that the firm had abused its dominant position. The EC will examine whether the world's largest search engine penalised competing services in its results. The probe follows complaints by firms including price comparison site Foundem and legal search engine ejustice.fr. Google denies the allegations but said it would work with the Commission to "address any concerns". Earlier this year the attorney general of Texas launched a similar investigation following complaints from firms including Foundem. The objections in both cases are from competitors which allege that Google manipulates its search results. "The European Commission has decided to open an antitrust investigation into allegations that Google has abused a dominant position in online search," the body said in a statement.

Inclusion and “Every child matters”…or do some matter more than others? | edjitraining What is inclusion? For me, inclusion is not simply the toleration of all pupils, but the active provision of opportunities for all to feel good about themselves and to have the chance to flourish, whatever their individual needs and potential barriers to learning might be. Equal moral worth Let’s start with the premise that all people have equal moral worth, irrespective of colour, gender, ability, ethnicity, religion, age or sexual orientation. People may act better or worse and there are rewards and sanctions for those but the inherent moral worth of each individual remains sacrosanct. Principle of difference Secondly, according to Lord Bhikhu Parekh’s Runnymede Trust report cited above, there exists the principle of difference. Recognising racism - Racism is not simply a moral issue. Inclusion in schools Why it’s important Disabled pupils, particularly those who are learning disabled, are more likely than others to experience bullying. What are we to do?
