Somalia: A Quagmire With No Solutions?
By Andrew Pasternak
Ask most Americans what country is the biggest global headache, and the answer you are most likely to receive is Afghanistan. This is a fair point, seeing as troops from the US and her allies have been involved there for about a decade, but in reality the country that continues to have what seems to be the most insurmountable difficulties is Somalia.
Somalia is a country that has not had a unified government since 1991 and barring some remarkable turnaround or large intervention is not likely to have one anytime soon.
In 1991, the totalitarian dictator General Mohamed Siad Barre was ousted by allied forces from the north and south, but since then numerous political groups and clans have been fighting each other over control of parcels of land. The disastrous results for the people of Somalia have been predictable. About 43% of the Somali population lives on less than $1/day. Famine is not unknown to the Somali people, with 300,000 dying in 1992 and a famine occurring in southern Somalia as recently as this year.
Just as predictable as the dire effects of a 22-year collapse of government on the Somali people is the rise of extremist and criminal groups. Al-Shabaab, or "The Youth," is an Islamic insurgency group that has been labeled a terrorist group by numerous Western nations and has pledged loyalty to Al-Qaeda. The Islamist group controls the majority of southern Somalia and has been known to enforce a brutally strict form of sharia, including stoning a 13-year old girl for alleged adultery.
On the other end of the spectrum is the rise of piracy in Somalia. As of October, Somali pirates are believed to be behind 24 hijackings, accounting for 2/3 of such incidents in the world. Piracy in Somalia was nearly non-existent before the collapse of the Barre government. Now, it is a multi-million dollar industry supporting towns on the coast of Somalia. The direct and indirect cost of Somali piracy for the international maritime community and related industries now reaches well into the billions.
With so many problems, the clear answer is that Somalia needs a stable and working government to at the very least enforce a tenuous peace and then begin rebuilding a broken country. The currently-recognized government of Somalia is the Transitional Federal Government (TFG), but the actual power of the TFG is minimal. There have been successes, such as bringing in factions of the TFG's former adversary, the Islamic Courts Union (ICU), but there are many problems as well. Only recently was the TFG able to take control of Mogadishu, and it is unclear whether this is a lasting victory for the TFG or simply a temporary setback for Al-Shabaab. The TFG's control over southern Somalia is practically non-existent, and it is still unclear how the government could control Somaliland, a province in the north with secessionist tendencies. Even their long-term control in supposedly pro-TFG areas such as Puntland is brought into question by actions like piracy,
The stability of Somalia is not likely to come from outside of the country, either. Western nations were scared away after the United Nations Operation in Somalia II (UNOSOM II), which ended in the infamous 'Black Hawk Down' incident. Combined with the fatigue and unpopularity that have come with recent nation-building attempts in Iraq and Afghanistan, Western intervention seems highly unlikely. The African Union Mission to Somalia (AMISOM) has been going on since 2007, but the effectiveness of these troops is unclear, nor have they been used as a means to reunite the country.
Somali neighbors have tried more unilateral approaches, but these actions have not helped to lead toward a untied Somalia, nor is any action in the future necessarily a positive step. A U.S.-backed intervention by Ethiopia in 2006 prevented the ICU from obtaining a dominant position in Somalia and paved the way for the return of the TFG. Their presence in Somalia, however, was not popular on either side of the border, and it is unlikely that any Ethiopian presence could bring peace in Somalia. Kenya has also recently entered Somalia to hunt down Al-Shabaab militants, but the size of the mission suggests it is only temporary. Their involvement in Somalia has also been questioned by the TFG, and there is a distinct worry in Kenya that Al-Shabaab will retaliate, if they have not already.
The difficult and consistent problems inside Somalia do not suggest that there is an easy solution. The only sure way of achieving any stability in Somalia is through direct and large-scale intervention, but this is not a politically viable solution, nor is this a task that anyone wishes to lead and operate. The most viable action available seems to be an increase in support for the TFG through information sharing and military, economic, and humanitarian aid. This is no guarantee of success in Somalia, and the TFG could disintegrate into a useless body, but for now, it seems that we must put our hopes in them.

Humans count by tens, 'cause we have ten fingers, but computers count by twos because they use on/off switches (binary). So we have a one's place, multiply by ten to get a ten's place, then by ten again to get a hundred's place etc.
Computers count in binary, so they have a one's place, multiply by two to get a two's place, x2 = four's place, x2 = eight's place, etc.
Another reason hard drives 'lose' space is because marketers want them to sound as large as possible.
A 40Gb drive should be 40*1024*1024*1024 = 42,949,672,960 bytes, but they're actually more like 40,000,000,000 bytes.
Also, there's some overhead on the disk for the computer to know where it stores files, the names of the files, etc, (the technical term is filesystem metadata) so you can't use the whole 40,000,000,000 bytes for storing files.


A while back, I googled around to find a script to save my Netflix ratings. I've got 539 of them. It's a perfect interface, when I'm renting Netflix DVDs. But when I'm not, it's horrible. I also knew, there was some interesting data about me locked up in those ratings, but I couldn't analyze it.
I quickly found a perl-and-python based set of scripts called getFlix. But, even then it was old and very broken. It wouldn't actually save anything, because the pages on Netflix have changed. Well, I've finally created my own replacement. I intended it to all be server-side in PHP, but I had all kinds of inexplicable trouble just getting it to log in. So, I went the easier route: I threw together a Greasemonkey script, to actually do the crawling. This left the server side bit terribly trivial. The back end script is only about 50 lines, there's just three mysql tables. And it works! For now; the parsing logic is super fragile.
So, I've liked a lot, and disliked a lot. But, usually done pretty well picking movies. Most get four stars. The next graph, actors, isn't so interesting. It starts the average graphs, which include standard-deviation bars, to show the range of the values that were averaged. For actors especially, it's not so interesting. There's simply a lot of points, and enough got five stars that they just fill the graph. The decades graph is slightly more interesting. I've seen at least one film from every decade from the 1920s up to the 2000s. And, excluding the two outliers in the 30s, it's a nearly linear trend, I'm young, and I like young movies. More than older ones, at least.
How about directors? Peter Jackson made an easy first place, with all three of the Lord of the Rings trilogy counted towards him. What were the other three? The extended edition version. What follows is a variety of names I don't know at or above an average of 4 stars, probably a good place to look for more movies I like.
Genres is another interesting one. TV wins easy, because each show has a handful of seasons, and I've really only rated TV that I like. I already know which shows I like and which I don't, I've seen them on TV. They were more rated just to keep track of what I rented and what I didn't so far. Surprising, though, are numbers two and three: "Children & Family" and "Documentary". I'm surprised "Sci-Fi & Fantasy" is so low.
MPAA rating rounds out the group. After the genres graph, it's not so surprising. But, honestly, I expected R rated movies to be up higher.
Like what you see? You can get the code for yourself. But be careful: no warranty! It's generally insecure, so install it only on a private server, or behind a password. It's also likely to break, whenever Netflix changes their pages. And I don't plan on updating it. But it should serve you well for a while, if you're so inclined.
I wanted to check out some new ratings, so I ran the script again today. It was broken, of course! I fixed it, and updated the copy at the 'get the code' link above.
I know you stated you weren't really updating the script, but I just figured on the off chance you'd look here: it seems to only be inputting the data from the first page of MoviesYouveSeen and nothing more. Cheers!
Thanks so much for the example, Anthony!
I've taken your Greasemonkey script and enhanced it to include the IMDB movie ID as well. I also removed the stats collection, so now it runs entirely in Firefox; no server-side necessary.
John Giguere contacted me by email with an updated script he has written: GetFlix3.user.js. He says it puts the data into a text box which you can copy/paste out of. I have never used it but you're welcome to try it.

Durham is a city in Washington County, Oregon, United States. Incorporated in 1966, the city is surrounded by Tigard and Tualatin and is adjacent to the Bridgeport Village shopping complex. The population was 1,351 at the 2010 census.
The city was named for Albert Alonzo Durham, founder of the nearby town of Oswego. Durham operated a sawmill and a flour mill on Fanno Creek, which flows through the city, from 1866 until his death in 1898. The site, located along the Boones Ferry Road to Portland, was originally known as Durhams Mills. In 1908, the Oregon Electric Railway established a stop called Durham at the location. Residents of the city voted for incorporation in 1966 to protect the location from industrialization of its residential areas. Today, the community is primarily residential.
According to the United States Census Bureau, the city has a total area of 0.41 square miles (1.06 km2), all land. It sits at 197 feet (60 m) above sea-level. The main road through Durham is Upper Boones Ferry Road, with Interstate 5 approximately 0.5 miles (0.8 km) east of the city.

For this reason, a lot of people just works out just to build muscles but by doing this you are just building muscles but the strength does not significantly increase. This is the biggest misconception of people that lacks strength they will just workout without concrete workout routine that increases strength.

Social-ethos.com
Social-ethos.com provides a home for two books concerned with the themes of service, duty, and social cohesion. The First World War is central to both, but neither is about the war or warfare except in terms of their impact on four Canadians and the post-war social order.
The first book, James Ernest Brown: Soldier for his times, is a short biography of a man who served not his own ambitions or interests but the well-being of others. He worked in the lumber woods of the Ottawa Valley, homesteaded in Alberta, survived the Western Front, and dedicated himself in the 1920s and 1930s to social justice, international peace, and progressive agrarian politics.
The second and longer book is Three Soldiers and the Ethos of Service. Like the earlier work, Three Soldiers is biographical, historical, and thematic. The first half looks at two men who served in the trenches, then at a third – an artist – whose service lay in honouring the dead and comforting the bereaved after the war. The second half focuses on the last hundred years and the evolution of our increasingly uneasy relationship to service, duty, and society itself.
Social-ethos.com also hosts several articles, including a short piece on Canada's Mackenzie-Papineau Battalion and standalone versions of the second book's core chapters. All publications are available as printable PDF downloads.

How To Enhance The Longevity Of Log Homes?


text:
The attempt by government to mix the public and private market response to disasters such as Sandy, or indeed to mix the two in dealing with the crisis in housing for lower-income households, will bear some strange fruit. The likely effect will be to increase segregation and inequality, based on experience with the workings of the private market in housing. Two examples illustrate the danger: Governor Cuomo's plans to deal with units damaged by Sandy, and Mayor Bloomberg's plans to deal with the underfunding of public housing.
The alternative in both cases seems clear, but raises tabooed issues. To take them one at a time:
THE PLAN FOR SANDY: Cuomo's plan for housing damages by Sandy is to offer to buy up, at their prior damage value, any home whose owner wishes to sell and leave, and to offer those who wish to stay a grant to defray the costs of storm-proofing their residences.
The New York Times describes it succinctly as follows:[1]
"The governor's plan would pay the full pre-storm value of a house to owners who agreed to sell, with a 5 percent bonus to those who relocated in their home county. The plan would be voluntary; a homeowner could simply refuse to participate, and presumably elect to rebuild, despite higher insurance rates that doing so would entail.
The Cuomo administration estimates that 10,000 or so homes sit squarely in the danger zone, but, only a fraction — 10 percent to 15 percent — of these owners might actually participate in this program. The plan would not cover high-end properties like a wreck of a beachfront house in the Rockaways that is now on sale for $3 million "as is." But the price tag could go as high as $300,000 per dwelling, assuming the Department of Housing and Urban Development approves the plan.
For those who chose to stay, the administration would offer another option: grants to help owners flood-proof their homes. That could include rebuilding a house on or near the beach on giant pylons at least 2 feet above the projected flood level, which could mean 15 feet or more above ground level — a costly prospect."
What would be the likely market-induced result of the plan?
Owners with the resources to stay will grab the grants offered to help flood-proof their homes, add their own resources, and stay. Those without the resources, i.e. lower income households, will sell, and the government will take down their homes and convert their lots to some form of park or waterfront public use. The net result will be higher income owners have units on a less crowded waterfront, where no further building will take place on newly-added public open space, thus in fact increasing their property values after the deals are done. Lower-income households will have been removed from the areas, in any event back from the waterfront, since the required cost of storm-proofing is high, and be left to face the private market elsewhere.
So, net, a more exclusive enjoyment of the amenities of the waterfront for the well-to-do, a displacement of the less well-to-do from their desirable locations to the ordinary market in land. All government instigated and largely paid for. Hardly equitable.
THE PLAN FOR PUBLIC HOUSING: Mayor Bloomberg's plan to deal with the very substantial short-fall in Federal funding for public housing, with the apparent approval of the chair of the New York City Housing Authority, is to lease for the long term available vacant land within and around existing public housing projects to private developers. In the words of the chair of the Housing Authority, it will be
"forming partnerships with real estate developers to create a mix of affordable and market rate housing on under-used NYCHA sites. Doing that can generate hundreds of millions of dollars – every penny of which will be re-invested in NYCHA and used to fix roofs, elevators, and building facades. And it will create thousands of units of new housing, of which a substantial portion will be affordable. Let me repeat that: it will create thousands of new market-rate and affordable homes."[2]
What does that mean? Apart from the obvious failure to specify the number of "affordable" units to be built, or even whether "affordable" means eligible for public housing or some more moderate set off income limits, and apart from the disruption caused in the lives of the residents of the developments in the middle of which these new and expected high-rise structures will be built, there is the further elimination of the open space surrounding the high-rise public housing buildings, mostly built with a minimum of such space to economize on land costs from the very beginning, and already offering only very limited breathing space for project residents for open air, relaxation, sports, outdoor activities, and necessary parking. The new privately built units, already informally called luxury housing, on the other hand, will have privately provided internally and for their own residents amenities not available to the residents of the existing units, such as health clubs private security, probably parking, and others.
"Internal documents obtained by the Daily News show the planned 4,330 apartments in eight developments are all in hot real estate neighborhoods, including the upper East and West Sides, the lower East Side and lower Manhattan. Developers will get a sweet deal: a 99-year lease with the lease payments to the authority frozen for the first 35 years. … the land to be leased includes playgrounds, parking lots, and community centers — basically necessary amenities for those who live in public housing. And in the place of a playground for their children, tenants will instead look out on luxury housing."[2a]
Mixing in this way is more likely to create tensions among neighbors that the "diversity" so admired in the abstract in housing discourse. Those tensions will be aggravated because the developments being considered for surrender of their land to market-rate housing are those where land values, low when the projects where built, are now the highest, in Manhattan on the upper West Side and the middle and upper East Side. The minority status of low-income, and undoubtedly minority, households in these areas will only be accentuated.
Hardly equitable.
THE ANSWER: What ought to be done is painfully obvious. If maintenance of public housing is inadequate, because of lack of funding, that funding ought to be provided, and provided by government, which after is created to secure access to the necessities of life for its citizens. And it should be provided by the federal government, which has access to the most equitable source of the necessary funds, a progressive income tax system. Further, it is ironic that the whole scheme proposed rests on the historic action of government to take undesired land of low market value for its projects. Now that that land has become valuable, the drive is to make more and more of its remaining limited available space available to the market. Should not the benefit of the improved conditions that have made their land so valuable today accrue to those who have been asked to live there when conditions were not as favorable?
The political problem here is also not abstruse. The answer suggested above strikes anyone using common sense, attuned to the realities of life, honestly facing the facts as they are, as totally impractical. Raising taxes to provide benefits skewed to the poor will never pass Congress today. It is not worth even discussing. And that is the problem: the real answers are not on the table, are not even argued in mainstream, by politicians, in the media, in electoral campaigns, in the halls of legislatures. The discourse of housing policy is one-dimensional,[3] its language is itself one-dimensional, a dimension restricted by confinement to things as they are, surrender to the limited apparent possibilities of the status quo. An adequate public housing program is in an alternate dimension, that of the potential, the possible but not yet factual. It is simply not on the table. The next task for housing advocates is to get it back on the table.

Q: Using a signal handler to process datas received from a fifo I am writing a simple client/server communication with fifo but i am stuck at using a signal handler to process client request.
The server open a fifo in readonly and non blocking mode, read datas received and writes back some datas to the client fifo.
And this actually works fine when there is no signal handler on the server side. Here is the main code for both sides.
Server :
int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
    // install handler
    struct sigaction action;

    action.sa_handler = requestHandler;

    sigemptyset(&(action.sa_mask));

    action.sa_flags = SA_RESETHAND | SA_RESTART;

    sigaction(SIGIO, &action, NULL);

    if(!makeFifo(FIFO_READ, 0644))
        exit(1);

    int rd_fifo = openFifo(FIFO_READ, O_RDONLY | O_NONBLOCK); // non blocking

    if(rd_fifo == -1)
        exit(1);

    // wait for request and answer
    while (1) {
        qWarning() << "waiting client...";
        sleep(1);
        QString msg = readFifo(rd_fifo);

        qWarning() << "msg = " << msg;

        if(msg == "ReqMode") {
            int wr_fifo = openFifo(FIFO_WRITE, O_WRONLY); // blocking
            writeFifo(wr_fifo, QString("mode"));
            break;
        } else
            qWarning() << "unknow request ..";
    }

    close(rd_fifo);
    unlink(FIFO_READ);

    return 0;
}

Client :
int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
    int wr_fifo = openFifo(FIFO_WRITE, O_WRONLY);

    if(wr_fifo == -1)
        exit(1);

    // create a fifo to read server answer
    if(!makeFifo(FIFO_READ, 0644))
        exit(1);

    // ask the server his mode
    writeFifo(wr_fifo, QString("ReqMode"));

    // read his answer and print it
    int rd_fifo = openFifo(FIFO_READ, O_RDONLY); // blocking
    qWarning() << "server is in mode : " << readFifo(rd_fifo);

    close(rd_fifo);
    unlink(FIFO_READ);

    return 0;
}

Everything works as expected ( even if all errors are not properly handled, this is just a sample code to demonstrate that this is possible).
The problem is that the handler ( not shown here, but it only print a message on the terminal with the signal received ) is never called when the client write datas to the fifo. Beside, i have check that if i send a kill -SIGIO to the server from a bash ( or from elsewhere ) the signal handler is executed.
Thanks for your help.

A: Actually, i missed the 3 following lines on the server side :
fcntl(rd_fifo, F_SETOWN, getpid()); // set PID of the receiving process

 fcntl(rd_fifo, F_SETFL, fcntl(rd_fifo, F_GETFL) | O_ASYNC); // enable asynchronous beahviour

 fcntl(rd_fifo, F_SETSIG, SIGIO); // set the signal that is sent when the kernel tell us that there is a read/write on the fifo.

The last point was important because the default signal sent was 0 in my case, so i had to set it explicity to SIGIO to make things works. Here is the output of the server side :
waiting client...
nb_read =  0
msg =  ""
unknow request ..
waiting client...
signal  29
SIGPOLL
nb_read =  7
msg =  "ReqMode"

Now, i guess it's possible to handle the request inside the handler by moving what is inside the while loop into the requestHandler function.

Natividad Island
Conservation benefit: Remove scrap metal and restore bird nesting area
Community benefit: Waste compactor to help community property dispose of metal and encourage low-impact tourism
Natividad Island is part of the El Vizcaíno Biosphere Reserve in Baja California, the largest wildlife refuge in Mexico. This hilly island provides critical habitat for marine mammals (elephant seals, sea lions, and others) and birds. It supports 90% of the world's population of black-vented shearwaters, a near-threatened endemic Mexican bird.
This fishermen's cooperative in the small community (population 380) of Natividad has long been committed to conserving local fisheries. In 2011, Seacology worked with the coöp to protect 1,120 acres of ocean. As a result, populations of abalone and lobster have increased outside the no-take area. In return, Seacology made a grant for construction of two tourist cabins, which bring hundreds of visitors every year.
The coop and community now seek to clean up tons of unsightly scrap metal that has been accumulating for more than 50 years. The piles leach heavy metals and hinder efforts to develop ecotourism. They also reduce shearwater nesting habitat and trap birds in debris.
The community will use a Seacology grant (and funds contributed by the coöp) to acquire a waste compactor so they can properly dispose of the metal. The community will work with the Grupo de Ecología y Conservación de Islas, which works to restore seabird populations and offers environmental education. The fishers will help transport, operate, and maintain the compactor. They will also use their own vessels and trucks to properly dispose of the waste.
Intro to Seacology


D Ruth BavousettFor decades now, open source software (and lately, hardware!) has been transforming the ways that we live and work. It is, in the opinion of Dana Lewis, high time that we start using open source to innovate to save lives and solve health problems.
In her Day 2 OSCON keynote, Dana set out reminding us that Type I diabetes, suffered by millions of people around the world, is incredibly complicated to manage; there are many things that can change your insulin levels from moment to moment, and managing that with monitors and pump devices is difficult, requiring measurement and adjustment many times a day. But this has one core weakness: it's a loop that can become "open" too easily. The patient must sleep at some point, and therefore cannot do the monitoring and calculations necessary to adjust dosages. Devices used for monitoring and dosing are often not interoperable.
The solution is an artificial pancreas, which acts to close that loop by monitoring and adjusting insulin levels, just as the normal pancreas does. But those devices are not yet available on the commercial market, and won't be for some years yet.
Enter the OpenAPS project (Open Artificial Pancreas System); find it here on GitHub. "OpenAPS is a simplified Artificial Pancreas System (APS) designed to automatically adjust an insulin pump's basal insulin delivery to keep blood glucose (BG) in a safe range overnight and between meals."
Dana LewisThe system is designed to "fail low," rather than the dangerous possibility of overdosing the user. The reference design is written in plain English, so that potential users do not need to be developers to deploy the solution. They need a small amount of DIY skills, the ability to load software to a Raspberry Pi or other tiny computer, and a thorough knowledge of diabetes' impact in their own lives.
One concern is how this is regulated. Right now, the open source QA process is robust, and users are monitoring their own system. Additionally, by law, "off-label" usage of medical devices is unregulated. "You can do this!," says Dana. Results so far have been encouraging: 59 users have implemented the system, for both adults and children, including a father who deployed OpenAPS for his one-year-old daughter.
Dana closed with this: "What else is possible if you use your open source knowledge and skills to partner with someone in your life? With open source, there are endless opportunities to improve the lives of those we love."

When Yvan De Baets and Bernard Leboucq meet in 2002 during the annual Zinnekesparade, where Bernard serves his now world famous Zinnebir, it doesn't take them long to start making plans. In 2003 they set up their microbrewery and start their slow yet steady takeover of Brussels. Not with beers that are so typical for Belgium at that time, sweet and heavy, but with their vision of a good beer. Pure, natural, tasty, highly quaffable and balanced. With their motto 'Bitter is better!' they start the conquest of Brussels. Today their beers are cast in stone on the menu of many bars throughout the city. Zinnebir, Taras Boulba, Brusseleir, Jambe de Bois, Stouterik,...they have become a part of Brussels, these are Brussels beers! Always pure, always tasty. To discover or rediscover, the De La Senne beers always taste like more!


Another one bites the dust—this time it's Gilbey's at 32-01 Broadway. Loyal patrons are lamenting its closure and curious about the reasons. ("Landlord raised their rent." "No landlord wants to sell the building.") They plan to give it a big sendoff on Saturday, February 24.
As for the landlord, the building is owned by Crescent Management Associates, LLC, who bought it back in June 2016; Eugene Lavin, Inc in New Jersey owned it before then.
"The easy smile on Gilbey's clean-cut and slightly bucktoothed barman conveys more Fenian authenticity than would be found in all the Upper East Side's "Irish" bars combined. This local tavern shares the same strengths as the best pubs of the Irish countryside: an upbeat mood and a cozy, almost familial atmosphere. It's the type of place where, on a karaoke night, one patron's U2 ode might move his visiting mother to tears.
The location of Gilbey's is a pretty sweet spot on Broadway and no doubt the landlord has dollar signs in their eyes at the thought of selling the location to a developer. We've reached out to Gilbey's to get more information on the closing and will update this post with that if/when we get it.


Tunisian bloggers seem to have found ways to talk about Tunisian politics while avoiding getting caught by the ATI (Tunisian agency of Internet) watchdogs in charge of denying access and filtering out any site or blog that is critical of the Tunisian government and its members.
After its last campaign in December last year, which targeted multiple blogs that were a little critical about the current situation in the country, ATI seems to be more permissive.
Zizou from Djerba interpreted this as a good sign, hoping that it is a prelude to a new overture from the government, even though he thinks at the same time we saw very few critical posts since that campaign, adding that the last events (gunfights between police and armed Salafists) had to do something with this attitude.
It is true that Tunisian bloggers did not write about sensitive subjects and even borderline subjects were avoided by majority of the bloggers. Nevertheless, one could not deny that this is consequence of the last incident in Soliman ..
The only blogger who remains under surveillance is Mouwaten Tounsi, who is at his 6th new address since last year. Mouwaten chose to be more direct in his posts, especially in his open letter to the president, about more freedom for the Press.
It is true that lately, very few posts were critical to the government. Critics tend to be very present in commentaries around social or economical posts like Tarek Cheniti's post about the privatization of the education [fr] or very subtle like Isis 's post [fr] about the country's accomplishments in the last 51 years since its independence. By trying to expose certain problems without dealing with the cause, bloggers avoid being targeted by ATI.
Another very creative way to avoid censorship while talking politics was initiated by blogger OuNormal (usual). His blog NormalLand is about a virtual country with a virtual governor (himself). He started by assigning department head functions to different Tunisian bloggers. Being very satiric, his departments are for ultrastructure, black market, fights and disputes and even one department of corruption! He even created a parliament designated as Znouss counsel (my translation for Znouss is bad boys). NormalLand has a flag inspired by the real Tunisian flag and a very funny national anthem.
Many bloggers took part in this fiction, especially when OuNormal was victim of coup plotted[Ar] by one his aids Chanfara[Ar]that forced him to stage a presidential election[fr] for which many bloggers announced their candidacy such as Mouwaten[fr]and Temeraire[fr].
This is in my opinion, very typical of Tunisians, who always come up with ways to work around many limitations in our society.

The Secrets of Downtown Frederick
courtesy – activerain.trulia.com
98madisonlawson
by Madison Lawson
As microscopic and unimportant Frederick may be on a map, it offers so much life to its residents within the city. The decorative, worn-out brick walls of Downtown Frederick hold many quirky stores and restaurants that even the people who live there don't know exist! Boutiques, cupcake shops, and antique collectors are a few examples of the local businesses that occupy the Downtown area. Many people underestimate Frederick, but believe it or not, this town has much more to offer than what meets the eye.
The Frederick Partnership is an organization that plans fun events like First Saturday and In The Streets. As advocates for the arts, The Frederick Partnership willingly incorporates local musicians, artists, and comedians into their events. Once a month, Downtown hosts an exhibition for artists; a whole day dedicated for people to exploit their talents. For people who may not be skilled with their hands, you can participate in other forms of art such as photography classes, poetry out-loud, motivational speakers and musical performances.
In addition to the visual arts, Frederick has been known for its vast achievements in the culinary arts. Zoe's Chocolate Company, a dessert store in the heart of the city, creates distinct fudge flavors; from Spiced Pear to Aegan Pistachio, this store has added its own twist to chocolate candy. As odd as these flavors may be, Zoe's has won the 2015 Good Foods Award for their Greek Honey Yogurt chocolates and were the highlighted dessert at the Emmy's and Oscars!
As newly famous Zoe's Chocolate Co may be, other little mom & pop shops also make Frederick so unique. Pizza Pretzel Creations, a tiny pizza shop on North Market Street, has been serving residents for years. Its mouthwatering cheese pizzas served on soft, hand-made pretzel dough is something everyone must try in their lifetime! Closing around 3 am on the weekends, this restaurant brings midnight snacking to a whole new level.
"After taking one bite of their pizza, I thought I was in heaven." Junior Erika Benswanger said.
For all the rock and roll lovers in town, The Record Exchange is a must-see store that intertwines old classics with new trends.
Vinyls, one of the stores main features, has worked its way back into pop-culture, "I love listening to music on record." Junior Gabby Redpath exclaimed, "it's so retro."
Other nostalgic items such as turntables, stereos, cassette players, CD's, and video game systems are also available for purchase. Got any old memorabilia you don't want? The Record Exchange follows a reuse & recycle policy; they'll purchase any unwanted electronics that could be collecting dust in your attic. One man's trash is another man's treasure!
Speaking of treasures, Downtown is also a host for many antique shops and trendy clothing stores. Velvet Lounge, a boutique, shoe, and jewelry shop on the corner of West 2nd Street, offers apparel from various online brands such as Free People, Wildfox Couture and Hudson Denim. With warmer weather on the horizon, Velvet Lounge ensures in-season, unique clothing that cannot be bought at your typical Forever 21.
Before declaring Frederick as boring or uneventful, try looking deeper. Inside the heart of the town lies many new adventures that may spark your interest; coin collections at Emporium Antiques, vegan pastries at Glory Doughnuts, homemade coffee and bagels at Cafe Nola, knick-knacks at Retro Metro and the annual scavenger hunts at Colonial Jewelers are just a few examples of what Frederick has to offer.
"I wanted to work in Frederick because the Downtown area is very cultured." exclaimed English Teacher Ms. Lauren Graziano. "It's very beautiful and classy, not all towns have that."
Next time you're looking for something fun to do on the weekends, look no further — Downtown is just a mile away!
