	Stephen Franks - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

	Beehive.govt.nz - Response to Stephen Franks article, Dominion Post
		I must take issue with Stephen Franks' flights of fantasy as expressed in his article on the privately managed Auckland Central Remand Prison.
		Mr Franks' claims about the experience of private prisons in California, and a separate news story about private prisons in the same edition of the DomPost, need to be corrected.
		The $72,000 per inmate cost quoted by Mr Franks is an average for maximum security sentenced inmates, and does not give an accurate comparison of the cost of managing remand inmates, who are in prison awaiting trial, either publicly or privately.

		Perhaps Isaac Franks met some charming arming co-religionist among the Spanish and Portuguese Jewish colony in Philadelphia, and secretly married her, though it is doubtful if she appeared at New Judea, as the missionary settlement was first known, until after the colapse of the proselyting movement.
		Franks was listed among the "dames" or patronesses of the "wartime" assembly of 1757, while the French and Indian war was at its height, and many officers danced in glittering uniforms.
		In earlier years Stephen Franks used the "Dutch" method to hunt the fox, that is, he hunted on foot, with his hounds which were descended from the best English, Irish, and German packs.

		Stephen Franks: Metformin (glucophage) for treatment of women with PCOS was actually reported in the US about five years ago and has been used both in the USA and the UK since.
		Stephen Franks:Although it is possible that the PCOS has been a factor in her developing diabetes, it's very unusual for this to be the case in young women and there probably other more important factors involved.

		Act MP Stephen Franks is pissing me off at the moment, mostly because I heard him interviewed twice on the radio yesterday and I can't understand how someone so obviously intelligent permits himself to be so obviously silly when he opens his mouth.
		I'm also very wary myself of expanding the boundaries of "hate speech", the Parliamentary select committee inquiry into which is underway, in response to an unusual case that was the subject of a Karl du Fresne commentary on Mediawatch.
		Franks might also wish to note that generalisations about the (ahem) "homosexual lobby" are, like generalisations about homosexuals themselves, perilous.

	CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Pope Stephen (III) IV
		By their efforts Stephen, a Sicilian, the son of Olivus, was at length canonically elected and consecrated (7 August, 768).
		After his consecration the antipopes were treated with the greatest cruelty which, it seems to be generally allowed, Stephen was unable to hinder.
		Through Stephen's support the archdeacon Leo was enabled to hold the See of Ravenna against a lay intruder, and in turn through the support of the brothers Charlemagne and Carloman, Kings of the Franks, Stephen was able to recover some territories from the Lombards.

		In September last year Act MP Stephen Franks accused Chief Justice Sian Elias of bias over the foreshore and seabed.

		Law Society President, Christine Grice, criticised Mr Franks’ comments as inappropriate and wrong, warning that: “having not been put in issue in the proceedings, an allegation of actual bias by a person in a privileged position, knowing that the Judiciary will not respond, could seriously harm the integrity of the Judiciary”.

	Police Complaints Authority (Commission of Inquiry into Police Conduct) Amendment Bill - Second Reading - Green Party
		The Green Party will support this bill but like previous speakers, including Stephen Franks who has just spoken, we are concerned that the principle of privacy in the deliberations of the Police Complaints Authority should be upheld where at all possible.
		That being said, I think that Stephen Franks raised some important points, and his suggestions for amendments deserve some consideration.
		However, I think we can trust the commission in this case to consider very seriously the questions of privacy, and when the commission holds its deliberations and makes its final reports it should be very careful not to disclose the individual circumstances of people or information that could lead to their identification.
